0,32342857,Two speeds of increasing milk feeds for very preterm or very low-birthweight infants: the SIFT RCT.,"BACKGROUND
Observational data suggest that slowly advancing enteral feeds in preterm infants may reduce necrotising enterocolitis but increase late-onset sepsis. The Speed of Increasing milk Feeds Trial (SIFT) compared two rates of feed advancement.
OBJECTIVE
To determine if faster (30 ml/kg/day) or slower (18 ml/kg/day) daily feed increments improve survival without moderate or severe disability and other morbidities in very preterm or very low-birthweight infants.
DESIGN
This was a multicentre, two-arm, parallel-group, randomised controlled trial. Randomisation was via a web-hosted minimisation algorithm. It was not possible to safely and completely blind caregivers and parents.
SETTING
The setting was 55 UK neonatal units, from May 2013 to June 2015.
PARTICIPANTS
The participants were infants born at < 32 weeks' gestation or a weight of < 1500 g, who were receiving < 30 ml/kg/day of milk at trial enrolment.
INTERVENTIONS
When clinicians were ready to start advancing feed volumes, the infant was randomised to receive daily feed increments of either 30 ml/kg/day or 18 ml/kg/day. In total, 1400 infants were allocated to fast feeds and 1404 infants were allocated to slow feeds.
MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES
The primary outcome was survival without moderate or severe neurodevelopmental disability at 24 months of age, corrected for gestational age. The secondary outcomes were mortality; moderate or severe neurodevelopmental disability at 24 months corrected for gestational age; death before discharge home; microbiologically confirmed or clinically suspected late-onset sepsis; necrotising enterocolitis (Bell's stage 2 or 3); time taken to reach full milk feeds (tolerating 150 ml/kg/day for 3 consecutive days); growth from birth to discharge; duration of parenteral feeding; time in intensive care; duration of hospital stay; diagnosis of cerebral palsy by a doctor or other health professional; and individual components of the definition of moderate or severe neurodevelopmental disability.
RESULTS
The results showed that survival without moderate or severe neurodevelopmental disability at 24 months occurred in 802 out of 1224 (65.5%) infants allocated to faster increments and 848 out of 1246 (68.1%) infants allocated to slower increments (adjusted risk ratio 0.96, 95% confidence interval 0.92 to 1.01). There was no significant difference between groups in the risk of the individual components of the primary outcome or in the important hospital outcomes: late-onset sepsis (adjusted risk ratio 0.96, 95% confidence interval 0.86 to 1.07) or necrotising enterocolitis (adjusted risk ratio 0.88, 95% confidence interval 0.68 to 1.16). Cost-consequence analysis showed that the faster feed increment rate was less costly but also less effective than the slower rate in terms of achieving the primary outcome, so was therefore found to not be cost-effective. Four unexpected serious adverse events were reported, two in each group. None was assessed as being causally related to the intervention.
LIMITATIONS
The study could not be blinded, so care may have been affected by knowledge of allocation. Although well powered for comparisons of all infants, subgroup comparisons were underpowered.
CONCLUSIONS
No clear advantage was identified for the important outcomes in very preterm or very low-birthweight infants when milk feeds were advanced in daily volume increments of 30 ml/kg/day or 18 ml/kg/day. In terms of future work, the interaction of different milk types with increments merits further examination, as may different increments in infants at the extremes of gestation or birthweight.

1,32339032,SAFETY AND EFFICACY OF DDP4-INHIBITORS FOR MANAGEMENT OF HOSPITALIZED GENERAL MEDICINE AND SURGERY PATIENTS WITH TYPE 2 DIABETES.,"Background: DPP4-inhibitors (DPP4-i) have been shown to be effective for the management of inpatient diabetes. We report pooled data from three prospective studies using DPP4-i in general medicine and surgery patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D). Research Design and Methods: We combined data from three randomized studies comparing DPP4-i alone or in combination with basal insulin or basal bolus insulin regimen. Medicine (n=266) and surgery (n=319) patients admitted with a blood glucose (BG) between 140 and 400 mg/dl, treated with diet, oral agents or low-dose insulin therapy were included. Patients received DPP4-i alone (n=144), DPP4-i plus basal insulin (n=158) or basal bolus regimen (n=283). All groups received correctional doses with rapid-acting insulin for BG >140mg/dl. The primary endpoint was differences in mean daily BG between groups. Secondary endpoints included differences in hypoglycemia and hospital complications. Results: There were no differences in mean hospital daily BG among patients treated with DPP4-i alone (170±37 mg/dl), DPP4-i plus basal (172±42 mg/dl) or basal bolus (172±43 mg/dl), p=0.94; or in the percentage of BG readings within target of 70-180 mg/dl (63±32%, 60±31% and 64±28% respectively, p=0.42). There were no differences in length of stay or complications, but hypoglycemia was less common with DPP4-i alone (2%) compared to DPP4-i plus basal (9%) and basal bolus (10%), p=0.004. Conclusion: Treatment with DPP4-i alone or in combination with basal insulin is effective and results in lower incidence of hypoglycemia compared to a basal bolus insulin re gimen in general medicine and surgery patients with T2D.",2020,is effective and results in lower incidence of hypoglycemia compared to a basal bolus insulin,"['general medicine and surgery patients with T2D', 'general medicine and surgery patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D', 'n=266) and surgery (n=319) patients admitted with a blood glucose (BG) between 140 and 400 mg/dl, treated with']","['DPP4-i alone', 'correctional doses with rapid-acting insulin for BG >140mg/dl', 'DPP4-i alone or in combination with basal insulin or basal bolus insulin regimen', ': DPP4-inhibitors (DPP4-i', 'diet, oral agents or low-dose insulin therapy', 'DPP4-i plus basal insulin (n=158) or basal bolus regimen', 'DPP4-i', 'DPP4-i alone or in combination with basal insulin', 'Medicine']","['hypoglycemia and hospital complications', 'mean daily BG', 'mean hospital daily BG', 'length of stay or complications, but hypoglycemia', 'hypoglycemia']","[{'cui': 'C0086343', 'cui_str': 'General medicine'}, {'cui': 'C0038895', 'cui_str': 'operative procedures'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patient'}, {'cui': 'C0011860', 'cui_str': 'Type 2 diabetes mellitus'}, {'cui': 'C0332307', 'cui_str': 'Type - attribute'}, {'cui': 'C0184666', 'cui_str': 'Hospital admission'}, {'cui': 'C0005802', 'cui_str': 'Glucose, Blood'}, {'cui': 'C4319553', 'cui_str': '140'}, {'cui': 'C3816746', 'cui_str': '400'}, {'cui': 'C0439269', 'cui_str': 'mg/dL'}, {'cui': 'C0332293', 'cui_str': 'Treated with'}]","[{'cui': 'C0356365', 'cui_str': 'Short-acting insulin'}, {'cui': 'C0205112', 'cui_str': 'Basal'}, {'cui': 'C0021641', 'cui_str': 'Insulin'}, {'cui': 'C0040808', 'cui_str': 'Protocols, Treatment'}, {'cui': 'C0243077', 'cui_str': 'inhibitors'}, {'cui': 'C0012155', 'cui_str': 'Dietary finding'}, {'cui': 'C0226896', 'cui_str': 'Oral cavity structure'}, {'cui': 'C0450442', 'cui_str': 'Agent'}, {'cui': 'C0445550', 'cui_str': 'Low dose'}, {'cui': 'C0013216', 'cui_str': 'Drug therapy'}, {'cui': 'C0332287', 'cui_str': 'With'}, {'cui': 'C0013227', 'cui_str': 'Pharmaceutical / biologic product'}]","[{'cui': 'C0020615', 'cui_str': 'Hypoglycemia'}, {'cui': 'C0019994', 'cui_str': 'Hospitals'}, {'cui': 'C0009566', 'cui_str': 'Complication'}, {'cui': 'C0444504', 'cui_str': 'Mean'}, {'cui': 'C0332173', 'cui_str': 'Daily'}, {'cui': 'C0023303', 'cui_str': 'Length of Stay'}]",,0.0952002,is effective and results in lower incidence of hypoglycemia compared to a basal bolus insulin,"[{'ForeName': 'Cristina', 'Initials': 'C', 'LastName': 'Lorenzo-González', 'Affiliation': 'From: Department of Endocrinology and Nutrition, Hospital Universitario Nuestra Señora de La Candelaria, Tenerife, Spain.'}, {'ForeName': 'Elena', 'Initials': 'E', 'LastName': 'Atienza-Sánchez', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Endocrinology and Nutrition, Hospital Universitario Príncipe de Asturias, Madrid, Spain.'}, {'ForeName': 'David', 'Initials': 'D', 'LastName': 'Reyes-Umpierrez', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Medicine, Emory University School of Medicine.'}, {'ForeName': 'Priyathama', 'Initials': 'P', 'LastName': 'Vellanki', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Medicine, Emory University School of Medicine.'}, {'ForeName': 'Georgia M', 'Initials': 'GM', 'LastName': 'Davis', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Medicine, Emory University School of Medicine.'}, {'ForeName': 'Francisco J', 'Initials': 'FJ', 'LastName': 'Pasquel', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Medicine, Emory University School of Medicine.'}, {'ForeName': 'Saumeth', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Cardona', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Medicine, Emory University School of Medicine.'}, {'ForeName': 'Maya', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Fayfman', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Medicine, Emory University School of Medicine.'}, {'ForeName': 'Limin', 'Initials': 'L', 'LastName': 'Peng', 'Affiliation': 'Schoolf of Public Health, Emory University.'}, {'ForeName': 'Guillermo E', 'Initials': 'GE', 'LastName': 'Umpierrez', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Medicine, Emory University School of Medicine.'}]",Endocrine practice : official journal of the American College of Endocrinology and the American Association of Clinical Endocrinologists,['10.4158/EP-2019-0481']
2,32339370,Histology of augmented autogenous bone covered by a platelet-rich fibrin membrane or deproteinized bovine bone mineral and a collagen membrane: A pilot randomized controlled trial.,"OBJECTIVES
This study aimed to evaluate histologic and histomorphometric bone characteristics with a focus on vitality after lateral alveolar ridge augmentation using an autogenous bone graft as a block covered by either a platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) membrane (test group) or a standard procedure involving coverage of the bone block with a deproteinized bovine bone mineral and a resorbable collagen membrane (control group).
MATERIAL AND METHODS
A total of 27 (test = 14, control = 13) partially edentulous patients with indication for bone block augmentation before implant installation were included. For analyses, a biopsy of augmented bone was retrieved six months after bone grafting.
RESULTS
Histologic evaluation of augmented bone revealed a predominance of non-vital bone toward the periosteum and few localized areas of vital bone in the center of the graft in both groups. In contrast, augmented bone toward the native bone demonstrated extensive bone remodeling in both groups. Histomorphometric analyses demonstrated a mean of 14% vital bone, 80% non-vital bone, 5% soft tissue, and 1% blood vessels in the test group. In the control group, the corresponding shares were 14% vital bone, 63% non-vital bone, 22% soft tissue, and 1% blood vessels. We observed no significant differences between the groups (p > .05).
CONCLUSION
In conclusion, a comparable low bone vitality of augmented bone was observed in the PRF and in the control group. Consequently, the present study could not verify the potential beneficial effect of a PRF membrane on bone vitality of an autogenous bone graft used as a block.",2020,"RESULTS

3,32339499,"Effects of exogenous ghrelin administration and ghrelin receptor blockade, in combination with alcohol, on peripheral inflammatory markers in heavy-drinking individuals: Results from two human laboratory studies.","The ghrelin system has been garnering interest for its role in different neuropsychiatric disorders, including alcohol use disorder (AUD). Accordingly, targeting the ghrelin system is under investigation as a potential novel therapeutic approach. While alcohol provokes the immune system and inflammatory responses, ghrelin has potent immunomodulatory and anti-inflammatory properties. The present study aimed to shed light on the ""crosstalk"" between ghrelin and inflammation by examining the effects of exogenous ghrelin administration and ghrelin receptor blockade on peripheral inflammatory markers in the context of two human laboratory studies with alcohol administration. Non-treatment-seeking, heavy-drinking individuals with alcohol dependence, the majority of whom were African American males, were enrolled. In the first randomized, crossover, double-blind, placebo-controlled human laboratory study, participants underwent two experimental paradigms - an intravenous alcohol self-administration (IV-ASA) and an intravenous alcohol clamp (IV-AC) - each consisting of two counterbalanced sessions (ghrelin, placebo). A loading dose of intravenous ghrelin (3 mcg/kg) or placebo, followed by a continuous ghrelin (16.9 ng/kg/min) or placebo infusion was administered. In the second dose-escalating, single-blind, placebo-controlled human laboratory phase 1b study, participants were dosed with an oral ghrelin receptor blocker (PF-5190457) and underwent an oral alcohol challenge. Repeated blood samples were collected, and plasma concentrations of the following inflammatory markers were measured: C-reactive protein (CRP), interleukin (IL)-6, IL-10, IL-18, and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α). During the IV-ASA experiment, significant drug × time interaction effects were observed for IL-6 (F 3,36 = 3.345, p = 0.030) and IL-10 (F 3,53.2 = 4.638, p = 0.006), indicating that ghrelin, compared to placebo, significantly reduced blood concentrations of the proinflammatory cytokine IL-6, while increasing blood concentrations of the anti-inflammatory cytokine IL-10. No significant drug × time interaction effects were observed during the IV-AC experiment, possibly because of its much shorter duration and/or smaller sample. Treatment with PF-5190457, compared to placebo, had no significant effect on the inflammatory markers investigated. In conclusion, a supraphysiologic pharmacological challenge with exogenous ghrelin in heavy-drinking individuals produced anti-inflammatory effects in the context of intravenous alcohol administration.

4,32339648,Updated efficacy results from the JAVELIN Renal 101 trial: first-line avelumab plus axitinib versus sunitinib in patients with advanced renal cell carcinoma.,"BACKGROUND
The phase 3 JAVELIN Renal 101 trial (NCT02684006) demonstrated significantly improved progression-free survival (PFS) with first-line avelumab plus axitinib vs sunitinib in advanced renal cell carcinoma (aRCC). We report updated efficacy data from the second interim analysis.
PATIENTS AND METHODS
Treatment-naïve patients with aRCC were randomized (1:1) to receive avelumab (10 mg/kg) intravenously every 2 weeks plus axitinib (5 mg) orally twice daily or sunitinib (50 mg) orally once daily for 4 weeks (6-week cycle). The two independent primary endpoints were PFS and overall survival (OS) among patients with PD-L1+ tumors. Key secondary endpoints were OS and PFS in the overall population.
RESULTS
Of 886 patients, 442 were randomized to the avelumab plus axitinib arm and 444 to the sunitinib arm; 270 and 290 had PD-L1+ tumors, respectively. After a minimum follow-up of 13 months (data cutoff Jan 28, 2019), PFS was significantly longer in the avelumab plus axitinib arm than in the sunitinib arm (PD-L1+ population: hazard ratio [HR] 0.62 [95% CI, 0.490-0.777]; 1-sided P < 0.0001; median 13.8 [95% CI, 10.1-20.7] vs 7.0 months [95% CI, 5.7-9.6]; overall population: HR 0.69 [95% CI, 0.574-0.825]; 1-sided P < 0.0001; median 13.3 [95% CI, 11.1-15.3] vs 8.0 months [95% CI, 6.7-9.8]). OS data were immature (PD-L1+ population: HR 0.828 [95% CI, 0.596-1.151]; 1-sided P = 0.1301; overall population: HR 0.796 [95% CI, 0.616-1.027]; 1-sided P = 0.0392).
CONCLUSION

5,32276071,Acute alcohol intoxication and expectations reshape the spatiotemporal functional architecture of executive control.,"While the deleterious effects of acute ethyl alcohol intoxication on executive control are well-established, the underlying spatiotemporal brain mechanisms remain largely unresolved. In addition, since the effects of alcohol are noticeable to participants, isolating the effects of the substance from those related to expectations represents a major challenge. We addressed these issues using a double-blind, randomized, parallel, placebo-controlled experimental design comparing the behavioral and electrical neuroimaging acute effects of 0.6 vs 0.02 g/kg alcohol intake recorded in 65 healthy adults during an inhibitory control Go/NoGo task. Topographic ERP analyses of covariance with self-reported dose expectations allowed to dissociate their neurophysiological effects from those of the substance. While alcohol intoxication increased response time variability and post-error slowing, bayesian analyses indicated that it did not modify commission error rates. Functionally, alcohol induced topographic ERP modulations over the periods of the stimulus-locked N2 and P3 components, arising from pre-supplementary motor and anterior cingulate areas. In contrast, alcohol decreased the strength of the response-locked anterior cingulate error-related component but not its topography. This pattern indicates that alcohol had a locally specific influence within the executive control network, but disrupted performance monitoring processes via global strength-based mechanisms. We further revealed that alcohol-related expectations induced temporally specific functional modulations of the early N2 stimulus-locked medio-lateral prefrontal activity, a processing phase preceding those influenced by the actual alcohol intake. Our collective findings thus not only reveal the mechanisms underlying alcohol-induced impairments in impulse control and error processing, but also dissociate substance- from expectations- related functional effects.",2020,"Functionally, alcohol induced topographic modulation over the periods of the stimulus-locked N2 and P3 event-related potential components, arising from pre- supplementary motor and anterior cingulate areas.",['65 healthy adults during an inhibitory control Go/NoGo task'],['placebo'],['strength of the response-locked anterior cingulate error'],"[{'cui': 'C0686750', 'cui_str': 'Well adult'}, {'cui': 'C0009932', 'cui_str': 'Control Groups'}]","[{'cui': 'C0032042', 'cui_str': 'Sham Treatment'}]","[{'cui': 'C0175190', 'cui_str': 'Anterior Cingulate Gyrus'}]",65.0,0.0365488,"Functionally, alcohol induced topographic modulation over the periods of the stimulus-locked N2 and P3 event-related potential components, arising from pre- supplementary motor and anterior cingulate areas.","[{'ForeName': 'Farfalla', 'Initials': 'F', 'LastName': 'Ribordy Lambert', 'Affiliation': 'Neurology Unit, Medicine Section, Faculty of Science and Medicine, University of Fribourg, 1700, Fribourg, Switzerland.'}, {'ForeName': 'Corentin A', 'Initials': 'CA', 'LastName': 'Wicht', 'Affiliation': 'Neurology Unit, Medicine Section, Faculty of Science and Medicine, University of Fribourg, 1700, Fribourg, Switzerland.'}, {'ForeName': 'Michael', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Mouthon', 'Affiliation': 'Neurology Unit, Medicine Section, Faculty of Science and Medicine, University of Fribourg, 1700, Fribourg, Switzerland.'}, {'ForeName': 'Lucas', 'Initials': 'L', 'LastName': 'Spierer', 'Affiliation': 'Neurology Unit, Medicine Section, Faculty of Science and Medicine, University of Fribourg, 1700, Fribourg, Switzerland.

6,32339664,"Effect of prefrontal tDCS on resting brain fMRI graph measures in Alcohol Use Disorders: A randomized, double-blind, sham-controlled study.","OBJECTIVES
Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS) is a promising new adjuvant approach in the treatment of Alcohol Use Disorders (AUDs) that has the potential to ameliorate the aberrations secondary to chronic alcohol use. In this study, using a randomized, double-blind, sham-controlled, parallel-arm design, we examined the effects of prefrontal tDCS on resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rsfMRI) and its correlates with impulsivity and time to first lapse in subjects with AUDs.
METHODS
Patients with AUD as per DSM-5 criteria were randomly allocated to receive a five-day course of either verum-tDCS (n = 12) or sham-tDCS (n = 12). Of them, 21 patients (verum/sham = 11/10) participated in both baseline and post-intervention 10-min rsfMRI sessions. Outside the scanner, subjects also performed the Stop-Signal Task at two time-points (baseline and post-intervention), which provided a measure of changes in impulsivity following tDCS. After completion of the post-intervention scan, all subjects were discharged and were followed-up for 90 days post-discharge or until lapse to first alcohol use.
RESULTS
Graph theoretical analysis of rsfMRI data revealed that verum-tDCS (but not sham) resulted in a significant increase in the global efficiency of brain networks with a concurrent significant reduction in global clustering; network-based statistical analysis identified a significant increase in the functional connectivity of a specific sub-network involving prefrontal regions. Furthermore, increased global efficiency of brain networks following verum tDCS predicted a significantly reduced likelihood of relapse. In addition, a reduction in the global clustering had a significant positive correlation with a reduction in the measure of impulsivity.
CONCLUSIONS
The present study adds further support to the increasing evidence base for the clinical utility of tDCS in AUDs. Importantly, we observed improvement in both whole-brain network efficiency as well as inter-regional connectivity within a specific local prefrontal sub-network that is relevant to the neurobiology of AUDs. Replication and extension of these promising leads from the present study can facilitate clinical translation of tDCS, given its advantages (i.e. safety, cost-effectiveness, administration ease with potential for remotely-supervised / home-based application) for treating patients with AUDs.",2020,"In addition, a reduction in the global clustering had a significant positive correlation with a reduction in the measure of impulsivity.

7,32339768,Risk reduction through family therapy (RRFT): Protocol of a randomized controlled efficacy trial of an integrative treatment for co-occurring substance use problems and posttraumatic stress disorder symptoms in adolescents who have experienced interpersonal violence and other traumatic events.,"Decades of research demonstrate that childhood exposure to traumatic events, particularly interpersonal violence experiences (IPV; sexual abuse, physical abuse, witnessing violence), increases risk for negative behavioral and emotional outcomes, including substance use problems (SUP) and posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Despite this well-established link-including empirical support for shared etiological and functional connections between SUP and PTSD -the field has been void of a gold standard treatment for adolescent populations. To address this gap, our team recently completed a large randomized controlled trial to evaluate the efficacy of Risk Reduction through Family Therapy (RRFT), an integrative and exposure-based risk-reduction and treatment approach for adolescents who have experienced IPV and other traumatic events.

8,32278029,"Addition of Chinese herbal remedy, Tongguan Capsules, to the standard treatment in patients with myocardial infarction improve the ventricular reperfusion and remodeling: Proteomic analysis of possible signaling pathways.","ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE
Tongguan Capsules (TGC), a patented Chinese herbal remedy containing Salvia miltiorrhiza, Astragalus membranaceus, Borneolum syntheticum and Grasshopper, has been previously tested in the experimental model of animal hearts subjected to ischemia/reperfusion injury and its cardioprotective effect has been described.
AIM OF THE STUDY
This clinical trial was aimed at investigation whether the administration of TGC to patients suffered myocardial infarction (MI), would diminish dilation of the left ventricular (LV) and reduce development of the adverse clinical consequences.
METHODS
Eligible patients were enrolled and randomized 1:1 to TGC (4.5 g/d for 6 months) superimposed on standard treatment for MI, or the control group receiving the standard protocol alone. The outcomes of this trial were valued after 6 months and reported as a mean change from the baseline in LV end-systolic volume index (LVESVI) and as a frequency of MI recurrence, target-vessel revascularization, severity of heart failure or significant arrhythmia that required the additional therapy within 6 months. In addition, arrays with a panel of specific antibodies were used to assess levels of major cytokines and other pathophysiologic markers, that prompted conclusions about the mechanisms of the ultimate clinical outcomes in both patient's subgroups.
RESULTS
Meaningfully, obtained results indicated that MI patients randomly assigned to the TGC treatment, demonstrated a significant reduction of LVESVI (-4.03 ± 0.73 vs. 1.59 ± 0.43 mL/m 2 , P < 0.001) and a lower incidence of the major adverse cardiovascular events (5.45% vs. 11.44%, P = 0.033). Meaningfully, those patients consistently demonstrated lower serum levels of major inflammatory cytokines, as well as reduced levels of markers of myocardial apoptosis and fibrosis.
CONCLUSION
Addition of TGC to the current conventional treatment of MI patients, significantly reduced their adverse LV remodeling and contributed to the more positive clinical outcome.

9,32347804,Using the Preparation Phase of the Multiphase Optimization Strategy to Develop a Messaging Component for Weight Loss: Formative and Pilot Research.,"BACKGROUND
Mobile messaging is often used in behavioral weight loss interventions, yet little is known as to the extent to which they contribute to weight loss when part of a multicomponent treatment package. The multiphase optimization strategy (MOST) is a framework that researchers can use to systematically investigate interventions that achieve desirable outcomes given specified constraints.
OBJECTIVE
This study describes the use of MOST to develop a messaging intervention as a component to test as part of a weight loss treatment package in a subsequent optimization trial.
METHODS
On the basis of our conceptual model, a text message intervention was created to support self-regulation of weight-related behaviors. We tested the messages in the ENLIGHTEN feasibility pilot study. Adults with overweight and obesity were recruited to participate in an 8-week weight loss program. Participants received a commercially available self-monitoring smartphone app, coaching calls, and text messages. The number and frequency of text messages sent were determined by individual preferences, and weight was assessed at 8 weeks.
RESULTS
Participants (n=9) in the feasibility pilot study lost 3.2% of their initial body weight over the 8-week intervention and preferred to receive 1.8 texts per day for 4.3 days per week. Researcher burden in manually sending messages was high, and the cost of receiving text messages was a concern. Therefore, a fully automated push notification system was developed to facilitate sending tailored daily messages to participants to support weight loss.
CONCLUSIONS
Following the completion of specifying the conceptual model and the feasibility pilot study, the message intervention went through a final iteration. Theory and feasibility pilot study results during the preparation phase informed critical decisions about automation, frequency, triggers, and content before inclusion as a treatment component in a factorial optimization trial.

11,32344098,Increased serum brain-derived neurotrophic factor with high-intensity interval training in stroke patients: A randomized controlled trial.,"BACKGROUND
Physiological adaptations of stroke patients after high-intensity interval training (HIIT) and moderate-intensity continuous training (MICT) remain unclear.
OBJECTIVE
This study determined the HIIT and MICT effects on aerobic capacity, cerebral oxygenation, peak cardiac output (CO), and serum brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) in stroke patients.
METHODS
We included 23 stroke patients with age about 55 years and stroke duration>24 months; participants completed 36 sessions of exercise training for 30min; 13 were randomly assigned to perform MICT at 60% of peak oxygen consumption (VO 2peak ) and 10 to perform HIIT at alternating 80% (3min) and 40% (3min) VO 2peak . Before and after interventions, we evaluated VO 2peak , peak CO, arteriovenous oxygen difference (AV O 2diff ), bilateral frontal cortex oxygenation (relative changes of oxyhemoglobin Δ[O 2 Hb], deoxyhemoglobin Δ[HHb], and total hemoglobin Δ[THb] levels), serum brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) level, and fluorescent cell staining for neuron morphology and percentage of cell-bearing neurites (% neurites).
RESULTS
HIIT induced significant increases in VO 2peak (P=0.008), CO (P=0.038), Δ[HHb] (P=0.046), Δ[THb] (P=0.046), and serum BDNF level (P=0.012). The improvement in VO 2peak was significantly greater with HIIT than MICT (20.7% vs. 9.8%, P=0.031), as was AV O 2diff (P=0.041), Δ[HHb] (P=0.027), and serum BDNF level (P<0.001). HIIT facilitated neuron dendritic protrusions (greater % neurites, P=0.012) with prominent redistribution of mitochondria.
CONCLUSION
As compared with MICT, HIIT-improved aerobic capacity by increasing systemic tissue O 2 extraction in stroke patients. Increased cerebral O 2 utilization in the involved hemisphere was also identified after HIIT. These physiological adaptations may be associated with increased serum BDNF level. In vitro dendritic growth in neurons treated with serum from HIIT participants may imply significant effects on neuron activities as compared with MICT. CLINICALTRIALS.

13,32341044,(Cost-)effectiveness of lower extremity nerve decompression surgery in subjects with diabetes: the DeCompression (DECO) trial-study protocol for a randomised controlled trial.,"INTRODUCTION
The peripheral nerves of patients with diabetes are often pathologically swollen, which results in entrapment at places of anatomical narrowing. This results in nerve dysfunction. Surgical treatment of compression neuropathies in the lower extremities (lower extremity nerve decompression (LEND)) results in relief of symptoms and gain in peripheral nerve function, which may lead to less sensory loss (short term) and less associated detrimental effects including foot ulceration and amputations, and lower costs (long term). The aim of the DeCompression trial is to evaluate the effectiveness and (cost-)effectiveness of surgical decompression of compressed lower extremity nerves (LEND surgery) compared with patients treated with conventional (non-surgical) care.
METHODS AND ANALYSIS
A stratified randomised (1 to 1) controlled trial comparing LEND surgery (intervention) with conventional non-surgical care (control strategy) in subjects with diabetes with problems of neuropathy due to compression neuropathies in the lower extremity. Randomisation is stratified for participating hospital (n=11) and gender. Patients and controls have the same follow-up at 1.5, 3, 6, 9, 12, 18, 24 and 48 months. Participants (n=344) will be recruited in 12 months and enrolled in all affiliated hospitals in which they receive both the intervention or conventional non-surgical care and follow-up. Outcome assessors are blinded to group assignment.
PRIMARY OUTCOME
disease-specific quality of life (Norfolk Quality of Life Questionnaire-Diabetic Neuropathy).
SECONDARY OUTCOMES
health-related quality of life (EuroQoL 5-dimension 5-level (EQ-5D5L), 36-item Short Form (SF-36)), plantar sensation (Rotterdam Diabetic Foot Test Battery), incidence of ulcerations/amputations, resource use and productivity loss (Medical Cost Questionnaire, Productivity Cost Questionnaire) during follow-up. The incremental cost-effectiveness ratio will be estimated on the basis of the collected empirical data and a cost-utility model.
ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION
Ethics approval has been granted by the Medical Research Ethics Committee of Utrecht University Medical Center (reference: NL68312.041.19v5, protocol number: 19-335/M). Dissemination of results will be via journal articles and presentations at national and international conferences.

14,32341047,Text messages for primary prevention of cardiovascular disease: the TextMe2 randomised controlled trial protocol.,"INTRODUCTION
Mobile health may be an effective means of delivering customised individually directed health promotion interventions for cardiovascular disease (CVD) primary prevention. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of a lifestyle-focused text messaging programme for primary CVD prevention.
METHODS AND ANALYSIS
Single-blind randomised controlled trial with 6 months' follow-up in 246 patients with moderate-high absolute cardiovascular risk and without coronary heart disease recruited from a rapid access cardiology clinic. Participants will be randomised to receive either usual care or TextMe2 (text message-based prevention programme). The TextMe2 programme provides support, motivation and education on five topics: diet, physical activity, smoking, general cardiovascular health and medication adherence, and is delivered in four text messages per week over 6 months. The primary outcome is change in the proportion of patients who have three or more of five key modifiable risk factors that are uncontrolled (low-density lipoprotein >2.0 mmol/L, systolic blood pressure >140 mm Hg, body mass index >24.9 kg/m 2 , physical activity (less than the equivalent of 150 min of moderate intensity each week), current smoker). Secondary outcomes are changes in single biomedical risk factors, behavioural risk factors, quality of life, depression/anxiety scores, medication adherence, cardiovascular health literacy and hospital readmissions/representations. Analysis will be according to the intention-to-treat principle and full statistical analysis plan developed prior to data lock.
ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION
This study has been approved by the Western Sydney Local Health District Human Research Ethics Committee at Westmead (AU/RED/HREC/17/WMEAD/186). Results will be presented at scientific meetings and published in peer-reviewed publications.

15,32345699,"Study protocol for optimising glycaemic control in type 1 diabetes treated with multiple daily insulin injections: intermittently scanned continuous glucose monitoring, carbohydrate counting with automated bolus calculation, or both? A randomised controlled trial.","INTRODUCTION
There are beneficial effects of advanced carbohydrate counting with an automatic bolus calculator (ABC) and intermittently scanned continuous glucose monitoring (isCGM) in persons with type 1 diabetes. We aim to compare the effects of isCGM, training in carbohydrate counting with ABC and the combination of the two concepts with standard care.
METHODS AND ANALYSIS
A multi-centre randomised controlled trial with inclusion criteria: ≥18 years, type 1 diabetes ≥1 year, injection therapy, HbA1c >53 mmol/mol, whereas daily use of carbohydrate counting and/or CGM/isCGM wear are exclusion criteria. Inclusion was initiated in October 2018 and is ongoing. Eligible persons are randomised into four groups: standard care, ABC, isCGM or ABC+isCGM. Devices used are FreeStyle Libre Flash and smart phone diabetes application mySugr. Participants attend group courses according to treatment allocation with different educational contents. Participants are followed for 26 weeks with clinical visits and telephone consultations. At baseline and at study end, participants wear blinded CGM, have blood samples performed and fill in questionnaires on person-related outcomes, and at baseline also on personality traits and hypoglycaemia awareness. The primary outcome is the difference in time spent in normoglycaemia (4-10 mmol/L) at study end versus baseline between the isCGM group and the standard care group. Secondary outcomes will also be analysed. Results are expected in 2020.

16,32345700,Investigating the effect of clinical pharmacist intervention in transitions of care on drug-related hospital readmissions among the elderly: study protocol for a randomised controlled trial.,"INTRODUCTION
Drug-related problems (DRPs) are a major cause of unplanned hospital admissions among elderly people, and transitions of care have been emphasised as a key area for improving patient safety. We have designed a complex clinical pharmacist intervention that targets people ≥75 years of age undergoing transitions of care from hospital to home and primary care. The main objective is to investigate if the intervention can reduce the risk of unplanned drug-related readmission within the first 180 days after the person is discharged from hospital.
METHODS AND ANALYSIS
This is a randomised, controlled, superiority trial with two parallel arms. A total of 700 people ≥75 years will be assigned to either intervention or routine care (control). The intervention, which aims to find and manage DRPs, is initiated within a week of the person being discharged from hospital and combines repeated medical chart reviews, phone interviews and in some cases medication reviews. People in both study arms may have been the subject of a medication review during their ward stay. As the primary outcome, we will measure time until unplanned drug-related readmission within 180 days of leaving hospital and use log rank tests and Cox proportional hazard models to analyse differences between the groups. Further investigations of subgroup effects and adjustments of the regression models will be based on heart failure and cognitive impairment as prognostic factors.
ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION
The study has been approved by the Regional Ethical Review Board in Umeå (registration numbers 2017-69-31M, 2018-83-32M and 2018-254-32M). We intend to publish the results with open access in international peer-reviewed journals and present our findings at international conferences. The trial is expected to result in more than one published article and form part of two PhD theses.

17,32352662,[Comparison of efficiency and safety of laparoscopic manual esophagoenterostomy and esophagoenterostomy with mechanical anastomotic devices after laparoscopic gastrectomy for stomach cancer].,"OBJECTIVE
To compare laparoscopic manual esophagoenterostomy and esophagoenterostomy with mechanical stapling anastomotic devices after laparoscopic gastrectomy for stomach cancer.
MATERIAL AND METHODS
There were 34 patients who underwent laparoscopic gastrectomy for stomach in 2015-2018. Roux-en-Y esophagoenterostomy was used to reconstruct the gastrointestinal tract. Manual anastomoses were performed in 18 patients (group 1), stapled anastomoses (endogia 45 mm, covidien, mansfield, ma, usa) - in 16 patients (group 2). There was no randomization. Surgery duration, length of icu-stay, terms of enteral nutrition initiation, postoperative complications, hospital-stay were analyzed.
RESULTS
Mean duration of surgery in the first group was 217 (184-302) min, in the second group - 201 (162-311) min. Duration of surgery in the first group was 1.08-fold higher than in the second group (95% CI 1.03-1.13, p =0.05). Mean blood loss was 145 ml in both groups. Mean icu-stay was 20.2 (17-42) hours in the first group and 21.1 (16.2-46) hours in the second group (ratio 0.96, 95% CI 0.92-1.01, p =0.06). Total enteral feeding (sipping) was initiated on the third day in both groups. Mean postoperative hospital-stay was 9.21 (6-13) days in the first group and 9.23 (6-12 days) days in the second group (ratio 0.99, 95% CI 0,95-1.02, p =0.06). Postoperative morbidity was 5.5% in the first group and 6.25% in the second group.

18,32342642,Resting metabolic rate and skeletal muscle SERCA and Na + /K + ATPase activities are not affected by fish oil supplementation in healthy older adults.,"Omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) have unique properties purported to influence several aspects of metabolism, including energy expenditure and protein function. Supplementing with n-3 PUFAs may increase whole-body resting metabolic rate (RMR), by enhancing Na + /K + ATPase (NKA) activity and reducing the efficiency of sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca 2+ ATPase (SERCA) activity by inducing a Ca 2+ leak-pump cycle. The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of fish oil (FO) on RMR, substrate oxidation, and skeletal muscle SERCA and NKA pump function in healthy older individuals. Subjects (n = 16 females; n = 8 males; 65 ± 1 years) were randomly assigned into groups supplemented with either olive oil (OO) (5 g/day) or FO (5 g/day) containing 2 g/day eicosapentaenoic acid and 1 g/day docosahexaenoic acid for 12 weeks. Participants visited the laboratory for RMR and substrate oxidation measurements after an overnight fast at weeks 0 and 12. Skeletal muscle biopsies were taken during weeks 0 and 12 for analysis of NKA and SERCA function and protein content. There was a main effect of time with decrease in RMR (5%) and fat oxidation (18%) in both the supplementation groups. The kinetic parameters of SERCA and NKA maximal activity, as well as the expression of SR and NKA proteins, were not affected after OO and FO supplementation. In conclusion, these results suggest that FO supplementation is not effective in altering RMR, substrate oxidation, and skeletal muscle SERCA and NKA protein levels and activities, in healthy older men and women.",2020,There was a main effect of time with decrease in RMR (5%) and fat oxidation (18%) in both the supplementation groups.,"['healthy older men and women', 'healthy older individuals', 'healthy older adults', 'Subjects (n\xa0=\xa016 females; n\xa0=\xa08 males; 65\xa0±\xa01\xa0years']","['Omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs', 'olive oil (OO', 'n-3 PUFAs', 'fish oil (FO', 'FO (5\xa0g/day) containing 2\xa0g/day eicosapentaenoic acid and 1\xa0g/day docosahexaenoic acid', 'FO supplementation']","['RMR', 'RMR, substrate oxidation, and skeletal muscle SERCA and NKA protein levels and activities', 'body resting metabolic rate (RMR), by enhancing Na + /K + ATPase (NKA) activity', 'RMR and substrate oxidation measurements', 'fat oxidation', 'RMR, substrate oxidation, and skeletal muscle SERCA and NKA pump function', 'efficiency of sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca 2+ ATPase (SERCA) activity']","[{'cui': 'C0580836', 'cui_str': 'Old'}, {'cui': 'C0025266', 'cui_str': 'Man'}, {'cui': 'C0043210', 'cui_str': 'Woman'}, {'cui': 'C0027361', 'cui_str': 'Person'}, {'cui': 'C0001792', 'cui_str': 'Elderly person'}, {'cui': 'C0086582', 'cui_str': 'Male'}, {'cui': 'C0439234', 'cui_str': 'year'}]","[{'cui': 'C0015689', 'cui_str': 'Omega-3 Fatty Acids'}, {'cui': 'C0015684', 'cui_str': 'Fatty acid'}, {'cui': 'C0069449', 'cui_str': 'olive oil'}, {'cui': 'C0016157', 'cui_str': 'Fish Oils'}, {'cui': 'C0439417', 'cui_str': 'g/24h'}, {'cui': 'C0332256', 'cui_str': 'Containing'}, {'cui': 'C0000545', 'cui_str': 'Eicosapentaenoic acid'}, {'cui': 'C0012968', 'cui_str': 'Docosahexenoic Acids'}, {'cui': 'C0242297', 'cui_str': 'Nutritional supplementation'}]","[{'cui': 'C4082350', 'cui_str': 'Resting Metabolic Rate'}, {'cui': 'C0030011', 'cui_str': 'Oxidation'}, {'cui': 'C0242692', 'cui_str': 'Skeletal muscle structure'}, {'cui': 'C0428479', 'cui_str': 'Protein level - finding'}, {'cui': 'C0026606', 'cui_str': 'Physical activity'}, {'cui': 'C0152338', 'cui_str': 'Structure of body of caudate nucleus'}, {'cui': 'C0001473', 'cui_str': 'Adenosinetriphosphatase'}, {'cui': 'C0242485', 'cui_str': 'Measurement'}, {'cui': 'C0015677', 'cui_str': 'Fat'}, {'cui': 'C0182537', 'cui_str': 'Pump'}, {'cui': 'C0031843', 'cui_str': 'PH'}, {'cui': 'C0013682', 'cui_str': 'Efficiency'}, {'cui': 'C0036226', 'cui_str': 'Sarcoplasmic reticulum'}, {'cui': 'C0596235', 'cui_str': 'Calcium ion'}]",,0.0348786,There was a main effect of time with decrease in RMR (5%) and fat oxidation (18%) in both the supplementation groups.,"[{'ForeName': 'Sebastian', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Jannas-Vela', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Human Health and Nutritional Sciences, University of Guelph, Guelph, ON, Canada.'}, {'ForeName': 'Shannon L', 'Initials': 'SL', 'LastName': 'Klingel', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Human Health and Nutritional Sciences, University of Guelph, Guelph, ON, Canada.'}, {'ForeName': 'Daniel T', 'Initials': 'DT', 'LastName': 'Cervone', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Human Health and Nutritional Sciences, University of Guelph, Guelph, ON, Canada.'}, {'ForeName': 'Kate A', 'Initials': 'KA', 'LastName': 'Wickham', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Human Health and Nutritional Sciences, University of Guelph, Guelph, ON, Canada.'}, {'ForeName': 'George J F', 'Initials': 'GJF', 'LastName': 'Heigenhauser', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Medicine, McMaster University, Hamilton, ON, Canada.'}, {'ForeName': 'David M', 'Initials': 'DM', 'LastName': 'Mutch', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Human Health and Nutritional Sciences, University of Guelph, Guelph, ON, Canada.'}, {'ForeName': 'Graham P', 'Initials': 'GP', 'LastName': 'Holloway', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Human Health and Nutritional Sciences, University of Guelph, Guelph, ON, Canada.'}, {'ForeName': 'Lawrence L', 'Initials': 'LL', 'LastName': 'Spriet', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Human Health and Nutritional Sciences, University of Guelph, Guelph, ON, Canada.'}]",Physiological reports,['10.14814/phy2.14408']
19,32343642,"Irinotecan, Temozolomide, and Dinutuximab With GM-CSF in Children With Refractory or Relapsed Neuroblastoma: A Report From the Children's Oncology Group.","PURPOSE
The combination of irinotecan, temozolomide, dintuximab, and granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (I/T/DIN/GM-CSF) demonstrated activity in patients with relapsed/refractory neuroblastoma in the randomized Children's Oncology Group ANBL1221 trial. To more accurately assess response rate and toxicity, an expanded cohort was nonrandomly assigned to I/T/DIN/GM-CSF.
PATIENTS AND METHODS
Patients were eligible at first relapse or first designation of refractory disease. Oral T and intravenous (IV) irinotecan were administered on days 1 to 5 of 21-day cycles. DIN was administered IV (days 2-5), and GM-CSF was administered subcutaneously (days 6-12). The primary end point was objective response, analyzed on an intent-to-treat basis per the International Neuroblastoma Response Criteria.
RESULTS
Seventeen eligible patients were randomly assigned to I/T/DIN/GM-CSF (February 2013 to March 2015); 36 additional patients were nonrandomly assigned to I/T/DIN/GM-CSF (August 2016 to May 2017). Objective (complete or partial) responses were observed in nine (52.9%) of 17 randomly assigned patients (95% CI, 29.2% to 76.7%) and 13 (36.1%) of 36 expansion patients (95% CI, 20.4% to 51.8%). Objective responses were seen in 22 (41.5%) of 53 patients overall (95% CI, 28.2% to 54.8%); stable disease was also observed in 22 of 53. One-year progression-free and overall survival for all patients receiving I/T/DIN/GM-CSF were 67.9% ± 6.4% (95% CI, 55.4% to 80.5%) and 84.9% ± 4.9% (95% CI, 75.3% to 94.6%), respectively. Two patients did not receive protocol therapy and were evaluable for response but not toxicity. Common grade ≥ 3 toxicities were fever/infection (18 [35.3%] of 51), neutropenia (17 [33.3%] of 51), pain (15 [29.4%] of 51), and diarrhea (10 [19.6%] of 51). One patient met protocol-defined criteria for unacceptable toxicity (grade 4 hypoxia). Higher DIN trough levels were associated with response.

21,32342648,Do the anatomical and physiological properties of a muscle determine its adaptive response to different loading protocols?,"It has been proposed that superior muscle hypertrophy may be obtained by training muscles predominant in type I fibers with lighter loads and those predominant in type II fibers with heavier loads.
PURPOSE
To evaluate longitudinal changes in muscle strength and hypertrophy of the soleus (a predominantly slow-twitch muscle) and gastrocnemius (muscle with a similar composition of slow and fast-twitch fibers) when subjected to light (20-30 repetition maximum) and heavy (6-10 repetition maximum) load plantarflexion exercise.
METHODS
The study employed a within-subject design whereby 26 untrained young men had their lower limbs randomized to perform plantarflexion with a low-load (LIGHT) and a high-load (HEAVY) for 8 weeks. Muscle thickness was estimated via B-mode ultrasound and maximal strength was determined by isometric dynamometry.
RESULTS
Results showed that changes in muscle thickness were similar for the soleus and the gastrocnemius regardless of the magnitude of load used in training. Furthermore, each of the calf muscles demonstrated robust hypertrophy, with the lateral gastrocnemius showing greater gains compared to the medial gastrocnemius and soleus. Both HEAVY and LIGHT training programs elicited similar hypertrophic increases in the triceps surae. Finally, isometric strength increases were similar between loading conditions.
CONCLUSIONS
The triceps surae muscles respond robustly to regimented exercise and measures of muscle hypertrophy and isometric strength appear independent of muscle fiber type composition. Moreover, the study provides further evidence that low-load training is a viable strategy to increase hypertrophy in different human muscles, with hypertrophic increases similar to that observed using heavy loads.",2020,The triceps surae muscles respond robustly to regimented exercise and measures of muscle hypertrophy and isometric strength appear independent of muscle fiber type composition.,['26 untrained young men had their lower limbs randomized to'],"['HEAVY and LIGHT training', 'perform plantarflexion with a low-load (LIGHT) and a high-load (HEAVY']","['isometric strength increases', 'hypertrophic increases in the triceps surae', 'Muscle thickness', 'muscle thickness']","[{'cui': 'C0332239', 'cui_str': 'Young'}, {'cui': 'C0025266', 'cui_str': 'Man'}, {'cui': 'C0023216', 'cui_str': 'Lower limb structure'}]","[{'cui': 'C0439539', 'cui_str': 'Heavy (weight)'}, {'cui': 'C0023693', 'cui_str': 'Light'}, {'cui': 'C0040607', 'cui_str': 'Training Programs'}, {'cui': 'C0884358', 'cui_str': 'Performed'}, {'cui': 'C0205251', 'cui_str': 'Low'}, {'cui': 'C0205250', 'cui_str': 'High'}]","[{'cui': 'C0022206', 'cui_str': 'Isometric exercise'}, {'cui': 'C0205217', 'cui_str': 'Increased'}, {'cui': 'C0020564', 'cui_str': 'Hypertrophy'}, {'cui': 'C0026845', 'cui_str': 'Muscle tissue'}, {'cui': 'C1280412', 'cui_str': 'Thick'}]",26.0,0.0208311,The triceps surae muscles respond robustly to regimented exercise and measures of muscle hypertrophy and isometric strength appear independent of muscle fiber type composition.,"[{'ForeName': 'Brad J', 'Initials': 'BJ', 'LastName': 'Schoenfeld', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Health Sciences, CUNY Lehman College, Bronx, NY, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Andrew D', 'Initials': 'AD', 'LastName': 'Vigotsky', 'Affiliation': 'Departments of Biomedical Engineering and Statistics, Northwestern University, Evanston, IL, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Jozo', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Grgic', 'Affiliation': 'Institute for Health and Sport (IHES), Victoria University, Melbourne, VIC, Australia.'}, {'ForeName': 'Cody', 'Initials': 'C', 'LastName': 'Haun', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Exercise Science, LaGrange College, LaGrange, GA, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Bret', 'Initials': 'B', 'LastName': 'Contreras', 'Affiliation': 'Sport Performance Research Institute, AUT University, Auckland, New Zealand.'}, {'ForeName': 'Kenneth', 'Initials': 'K', 'LastName': 'Delcastillo', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Health Sciences, CUNY Lehman College, Bronx, NY, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Aston', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Francis', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Health Sciences, CUNY Lehman College, Bronx, NY, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Gilda', 'Initials': 'G', 'LastName': 'Cote', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Health Sciences, CUNY Lehman College, Bronx, NY, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Andrew', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Alto', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Health Sciences, CUNY Lehman College, Bronx, NY, USA.'}]",Physiological reports,['10.14814/phy2.14427']
22,32345650,Using the BRAVO Risk Engine to Predict Cardiovascular Outcomes in Clinical Trials With Sodium-Glucose Transporter 2 Inhibitors.,"OBJECTIVE
This study evaluated the ability of the Building, Relating, Assessing, and Validating Outcomes (BRAVO) risk engine to accurately project cardiovascular outcomes in three major clinical trials-BI 10773 (Empagliflozin) Cardiovascular Outcome Event Trial in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Patients (EMPA-REG OUTCOME), Canagliflozin Cardiovascular Assessment Study (CANVAS), and Dapagliflozin Effect on Cardiovascular Events-Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction (DECLARE-TIMI 58) trial-on sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2is) to treat patients with type 2 diabetes.
RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS
Baseline data from the publications of the three trials were obtained and entered into the BRAVO model to predict cardiovascular outcomes. Projected benefits of reducing risk factors of interest (A1C, systolic blood pressure [SBP], LDL, or BMI) on cardiovascular events were evaluated, and simulated outcomes were compared with those observed in each trial.
RESULTS
BRAVO achieved the best prediction accuracy when simulating outcomes of the CANVAS and DECLARE-TIMI 58 trials. For the EMPA-REG OUTCOME trial, a mild bias was observed (∼20%) in the prediction of mortality and angina. The effect of risk reduction on outcomes in treatment versus placebo groups predicted by the BRAVO model strongly correlated with the observed effect of risk reduction on the trial outcomes as published. Finally, the BRAVO engine revealed that most of the clinical benefits associated with SGLT2i treatment are through A1C control, although reductions in SBP and BMI explain a proportion of the observed decline in cardiovascular events.
CONCLUSIONS
The BRAVO risk engine was effective in predicting the benefits of SGLT2is on cardiovascular health through improvements in commonly measured risk factors, including A1C, SBP, and BMI. Since these benefits are individually small, the use of the complex, dynamic BRAVO model is ideal to explain the cardiovascular outcome trial results.",2020,"The BRAVO risk engine was effective in predicting the benefits of SGLT2is on cardiovascular health through improvements in commonly measured risk factors, including A1C, SBP, and BMI.","['patients with type 2 diabetes', 'Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Patients (EMPA-REG OUTCOME']","['BI 10773 (Empagliflozin', 'placebo', 'sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2is']","['mortality and angina', 'Canagliflozin Cardiovascular Assessment Study (CANVAS), and Dapagliflozin Effect on Cardiovascular Events-Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction', 'A1C, SBP, and BMI', 'risk factors of interest (A1C, systolic blood pressure [SBP], LDL, or BMI) on cardiovascular events']","[{'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patient'}, {'cui': 'C0332307', 'cui_str': 'Type - attribute'}, {'cui': 'C0011860', 'cui_str': 'Type 2 diabetes mellitus'}, {'cui': 'C0208940', 'cui_str': 'REG1A protein, human'}, {'cui': 'C1274040', 'cui_str': 'Result'}]","[{'cui': 'C3490349', 'cui_str': 'BI 10773'}, {'cui': 'C3490348', 'cui_str': 'empagliflozin'}, {'cui': 'C0032042', 'cui_str': 'Sham Treatment'}, {'cui': 'C0017739', 'cui_str': 'Glucose-Sodium Transport System'}, {'cui': 'C0243077', 'cui_str': 'inhibitors'}]","[{'cui': 'C0026565', 'cui_str': 'Mortality rate'}, {'cui': 'C0002962', 'cui_str': 'Angina pectoris'}, {'cui': 'C2974540', 'cui_str': 'canagliflozin'}, {'cui': 'C0007226', 'cui_str': 'Structure of cardiovascular system'}, {'cui': 'C0031809', 'cui_str': 'Physical examination'}, {'cui': 'C0008972', 'cui_str': 'Clinical Study'}, {'cui': 'C2353951', 'cui_str': 'dapagliflozin'}, {'cui': 'C1280500', 'cui_str': 'Effect'}, {'cui': 'C1320716', 'cui_str': 'Cardiovascular event'}, {'cui': 'C0520997', 'cui_str': 'Thrombolysis'}, {'cui': 'C0027051', 'cui_str': 'Myocardial infarction'}, {'cui': 'C4521595', 'cui_str': 'US Military enlisted E3'}, {'cui': 'C0085805', 'cui_str': 'Androgen Binding Protein'}, {'cui': 'C0005893', 'cui_str': 'Body mass index'}, {'cui': 'C0035648', 'cui_str': 'Risk factor'}, {'cui': 'C0543488', 'cui_str': 'Interested'}, {'cui': 'C0871470', 'cui_str': 'Systolic blood pressure'}, {'cui': 'C0023169', 'cui_str': 'LDL(1)'}]",,0.0433696,"The BRAVO risk engine was effective in predicting the benefits of SGLT2is on cardiovascular health through improvements in commonly measured risk factors, including A1C, SBP, and BMI.","[{'ForeName': 'Hui', 'Initials': 'H', 'LastName': 'Shao', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Pharmaceutical Outcomes and Policy, University of Florida College of Pharmacy, Gainesville, FL.'}, {'ForeName': 'Lizheng', 'Initials': 'L', 'LastName': 'Shi', 'Affiliation': 'Tulane University School of Public Health and Tropical Medicine, New Orleans, LA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Vivian A', 'Initials': 'VA', 'LastName': 'Fonseca', 'Affiliation': 'Tulane University School of Medicine, New Orleans, LA vfonseca@tulane.edu.'}]",Diabetes care,['10.2337/dc20-0227']
23,32348882,Acceptability of an orodispersible film compared to syrup in neonates and infants: A randomized controlled trial.,"OBJECTIVES
Reliable pediatric pharmacotherapy in all age groups requires the availability of age-appropriate drug administration. Orodispersible films (ODF) are a promising pediatric oral dosage form. ODFs would meet relevant targets: one dosage form matching the full range of pediatric patients, a minimum of non-toxic excipients, a stable drug formulation easily to be produced. However, there is a lack of reliable data on ODFs' acceptability, swallowability and palatability, especially in young children. The primary objective was to demonstrate non-inferiority in acceptability of a drug-free ODF in comparison to glucose syrup in children aged below one year. Secondary objectives were swallowability and palatability of the two formulations.
STUDY DESIGN
The study was performed in an open, randomized, two-way cross-over design with three age groups: 2-28 days, 29 days-5 months, 6-12 months. 150 children (N = 50 per age group) were randomized to the order of receiving the ODF (2 × 3 cm) and age-adapted amounts of glucose syrup (0.5-3 mL). Deglutition and swallowing were assessed according to predefined evaluation criteria. The application of the formulations was documented by video to evaluate the palatability.
RESULTS
The primary objective was confirmed: Non-inferiority of the acceptability of an ODF compared to syrup was demonstrated, even superiority of the ODF was shown (p < 0.0001). The secondary endpoints demonstrated positive results including the superior swallowability of the ODF in comparison to syrup (p < 0.0001). The palatability assessments were in favor of the ODF.

24,32352666,[Multi- and single-port laparoscopic surgery in the treatment of hydatid liver disease].,"OBJECTIVE
To compare the effectiveness of multi-port and single-port laparoscopic surgery in the treatment of hydatid cyst of the liver.
MATERIAL AND METHODS
There were 25 children with solitary hydatid cyst of the liver (CL-CE2) who underwent surgery in 2013-2017. Mean age was 10.1±2.05 years. There were 17 boys and 8 girls. Patients were divided into 2 groups: group 1 (multi-port laparoscopy) - 19 patients, group 2 (single-port laparoscopic surgery) - 6 patients.
RESULTS
Duration of ultrasound-assisted laparoscopy (G11 generator) was significantly shorter in the group 1 compared with group 2 (62.2±5.4 vs. 85.3±9.7 min, p <0.05). Intraoperative complications were absent. Biliary fistula in postoperative period was observed in 1 (5.3%) patient of the group 1. External drainage was effective. Residual cavity in 6 months after laparoscopic resection was observed in 1 (16.7%) patient of the group 2. Recurrent liver echinococcosis was not recorded.

25,32352676,[Evaluation of advantages of Contractubex gel usage for postsurgical scars treatment in comparison with absence of systematized topical scars treatment of kids with congenital cleft lip and palate].,"OBJECTIVE
Is to evaluate the advantage of Contractubex gel with regards to influence on vascularisation, pigmentation, thickness, surface size, configuration, and elisticity of postsurgical scars of children (after cheilorinoplasty) in comparison to absence of systematized topical treatment.
MATERIAL AND METHODS
Into the prospective, non-interventional, observational, multi-centered, in parallel groups, open, controlled study were included 60 patients aged 2,5 months and older with postsurgical scars after first cheilorinoplasty after 7-14 day after operation. Patients were randomized into 2 groups of 30 patients in each. I group - patients get applications of Contractubex gel 3 times a day (in the morning, in the afternoon, in the evening) in accordance with patient information leaflet. II group - control group with no regular therapy of of postsurgical scars (without treatment or without application of oils and gels with anticsarring action). The period of medicine usage - 9 months and more for each patient, the each patient observation duration is 18 months.
RESULTS
After analysis of the primary as well as secondary efficacy criteria (total grade based on POSAS scale, reported by investigator/parent) after 3, 6, 12, 18 months of observation in both groups a positive statistically significant dynamics was registered. At the same time in the Contractubex group results were statistically significantly better than in the control group. Positive dynamics was achieved quickier in the main group than in the contol group and was to observe already after 3 months of therapy, during the whole treatment and observation phase, and after 18 months of therapy. Additionally conducted photodocumentation of postsurgical scar development dynamics in terms of the study confirms positive effect of surgery and absence of visual data regarding keloids or hyperthrophic scars formation in patients in both groups. Adverse events, i. a. pain, itch, burning, long-run hyperemia were not registered during the whole period os study.
CONCLUSION
The conducted study has shown high efficacy and safety of Contractubex usage for the treatment of postsurgical scars of children with with congenital cleft lip and palate (from 2,5 months old). The statistically significant advantage of the therapy with Contractubex was demonstrated in comparison with the control group (with no regular topical treatment). The obtained results allow to recommend Contractubex gel as an effective and safe medicine for the treatment of scarring after surgeries for kids directly after sutures removal.",2020,"Positive dynamics was achieved quickier in the main group than in the contol group and was to observe already after 3 months of therapy, during the whole treatment and observation phase, and after 18 months of therapy.","['patients in both groups', 'children with with congenital cleft lip and palate (from 2,5 months old', '60 patients aged 2,5 months and older with postsurgical scars after first cheilorinoplasty after 7-14 day after operation', 'comparison with absence of systematized topical scars treatment of kids with congenital cleft lip and palate']","['control group with no regular therapy of of postsurgical scars (without treatment or without application of oils and gels with anticsarring action', 'Contractubex gel']","['secondary efficacy criteria (total grade based on POSAS scale', 'pain, itch, burning, long-run hyperemia', 'vascularisation, pigmentation, thickness, surface size, configuration, and elisticity of postsurgical scars']","[{'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patient'}, {'cui': 'C0439745', 'cui_str': 'Grouped'}, {'cui': 'C0008059', 'cui_str': 'Child'}, {'cui': 'C1299493', 'cui_str': 'Developmental failure of fusion'}, {'cui': 'C0023759', 'cui_str': 'Lip structure'}, {'cui': 'C0700374', 'cui_str': 'Palatal'}, {'cui': 'C0332177', 'cui_str': 'Monthly'}, {'cui': 'C0580836', 'cui_str': 'Old'}, {'cui': 'C0001779', 'cui_str': 'Age'}, {'cui': 'C0008767', 'cui_str': 'Scarring'}, {'cui': 'C0332173', 'cui_str': 'Daily'}, {'cui': 'C0038895', 'cui_str': 'operative procedures'}, {'cui': 'C0332197', 'cui_str': 'Absent'}, {'cui': 'C0332237', 'cui_str': 'Topical'}, {'cui': 'C0039798', 'cui_str': 'therapy'}, {'cui': 'C0680063', 'cui_str': 'Child of'}]","[{'cui': 'C0009932', 'cui_str': 'Control Groups'}, {'cui': 'C0205272', 'cui_str': 'Regular'}, {'cui': 'C0013216', 'cui_str': 'Drug therapy'}, {'cui': 'C0008767', 'cui_str': 'Scarring'}, {'cui': 'C0039798', 'cui_str': 'therapy'}, {'cui': 'C0185125', 'cui_str': 'Application'}, {'cui': 'C0028908', 'cui_str': 'Oil'}, {'cui': 'C0017243', 'cui_str': 'Gel'}, {'cui': 'C0441472', 'cui_str': 'Action'}, {'cui': 'C0056260', 'cui_str': 'Contractubex'}]","[{'cui': 'C0027627', 'cui_str': 'Metastasis'}, {'cui': 'C1280519', 'cui_str': 'Effectiveness'}, {'cui': 'C0243161', 'cui_str': 'criteria'}, {'cui': 'C0439810', 'cui_str': 'Total'}, {'cui': 'C0441800', 'cui_str': 'Grade'}, {'cui': 'C0002055', 'cui_str': 'Alkali'}, {'cui': 'C0175659', 'cui_str': 'Scale'}, {'cui': 'C0030193', 'cui_str': 'Pain'}, {'cui': 'C0033774', 'cui_str': 'Itching'}, {'cui': 'C0000912', 'cui_str': 'Accident caused by unspecified fire'}, {'cui': 'C0205166', 'cui_str': 'Long'}, {'cui': 'C0011991', 'cui_str': 'Diarrhea'}, {'cui': 'C0020452', 'cui_str': 'Hyperemia'}, {'cui': 'C0027686', 'cui_str': 'Neovascularization'}, {'cui': 'C0031911', 'cui_str': 'Pigmentation'}, {'cui': 'C1280412', 'cui_str': 'Thick'}, {'cui': 'C0205148', 'cui_str': 'Surface'}, {'cui': 'C0456389', 'cui_str': 'Size'}, {'cui': 'C0449830', 'cui_str': 'With configuration'}, {'cui': 'C0008767', 'cui_str': 'Scarring'}]",60.0,0.0273628,"Positive dynamics was achieved quickier in the main group than in the contol group and was to observe already after 3 months of therapy, during the whole treatment and observation phase, and after 18 months of therapy.","[{'ForeName': 'G V', 'Initials': 'GV', 'LastName': 'Gonchakov', 'Affiliation': 'Central clinical hospital with polyclinic of Administrative Directorate of the President of the Russian Federation, Moscow, Russia.'}, {'ForeName': 'Yu A', 'Initials': 'YA', 'LastName': 'Merkulova', 'Affiliation': 'Central clinical hospital with polyclinic of Administrative Directorate of the President of the Russian Federation, Moscow, Russia.'}]",Khirurgiia,['10.17116/hirurgia202004188']
26,32350016,Clinical and cost-effectiveness of a diabetes education and behavioural weight management programme versus a diabetes education programme in adults with a recent diagnosis of type 2 diabetes: study protocol for the Glucose Lowering through Weight management (GLoW) randomised controlled trial.,"INTRODUCTION
People with type 2 diabetes (T2D) can improve glycaemic control or even achieve remission through weight loss and reduce their use of medication and risk of cardiovascular disease. The Glucose Lowering through Weight management (GLoW) trial will evaluate whether a tailored diabetes education and behavioural weight management programme (DEW) is more effective and cost-effective than a diabetes education (DE) programme in helping people with overweight or obesity and a recent diagnosis of T2D to lower their blood glucose, lose weight and improve other markers of cardiovascular risk.
METHODS AND ANALYSIS
This study is a pragmatic, randomised, single-blind, parallel group, two-arm, superiority trial. We will recruit 576 adults with body mass index>25 kg/m 2 and diagnosis of T2D in the past 3 years and randomise them to a tailored DEW or a DE programme. Participants will attend measurement appointments at a local general practitioner practice or research centre at baseline, 6 and 12 months. The primary outcome is 12-month change in glycated haemoglobin. The effect of the intervention on the primary outcome will be estimated and tested using a linear regression model (analysis of covariance) including randomisation group and adjusted for baseline value of the outcome and the randomisation stratifiers. Participants will be included in the group to which they were randomised, under the intention-to-treat principle. Secondary outcomes include 6-month and 12-month changes in body weight, body fat percentage, systolic and diastolic blood pressure and lipid profile; probability of achieving good glycaemic control; probability of achieving remission from diabetes; probability of losing 5% and 10% body weight and modelled cardiovascular risk (UKPDS). An intention-to-treat within-trial cost-effectiveness analysis will be conducted from NHS and societal perspectives using participant-level data. Qualitative interviews will be conducted with participants to understand why and how the programme achieved its results and how participants manage their weight after the programme ends.
ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION
Ethical approval was received from East of Scotland Research Ethics Service on 15 May 2018 (18/ES/0048). This protocol (V.3) was approved on 19 June 2019. Findings will be published in peer-reviewed scientific journals and communicated to other stakeholders as appropriate.

27,32378340,Changes in strength and power performance and serum hormone concentrations during 12 weeks of task-specific or strength training in conscripts.,"The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of two different training programs on strength and power performance and serum hormone concentrations. A total of 104 male soldiers volunteered and took part in the 12-week training period with baseline, mid-, and post-measurements of body composition, muscle strength, lower and upper body power, and blood samples to determine serum hormone concentrations. The mean (±SD) age of subjects was 20 ± 1 years, height 180 ± 6 cm and body mass 72.4 ± 8.8 kg. The subjects were divided into three different training groups: soldier task-specific training (TS), strength training (ST), and control (CON). Each group had a total of 18 training sessions during the 12-week study. In the muscle strength tests, most improvements could be observed in the TS and ST groups, especially, during the first weeks of the training period. Maximal isometric leg extension force increased significantly by 7.9 ± 12.2% (p < .05) in the TS and 7.1 ± 12.6% (p < .05) in the ST groups between the PRE and MID, as well as between the PRE and POST measurements by 8.1 ± 12.4% (p < .05) in TS and 12.3 ± 15.3% (p < .01) in ST. Serum TES concentration increased significantly in TS between the PRE and MID (16.8 ± 33.9%) and PRE and POST (11.2 ± 16.7%) measurements. Serum COR concentrations decreased in TS between the MID and POST (-7.8 ± 10.9%) and PRE and POST (-11.0 ± 14.3%) measurements. Although the differences observed were rather minor in magnitude, training in the TS and ST groups led to greater improvements in muscle strength and power performance compared to the training in the CON group. The development of strength and/or power of the lower and upper body was greater in the TS and ST groups, which is crucial for warfighter's performance. Therefore, it is important to have a structured resistance-training program during military training to optimize the strength, power, and military-specific performance.",2020,"The development of strength and/or power of the lower and upper body was greater in the TS and ST groups, which is crucial for warfighter's performance.","['The mean (±SD) age of subjects was 20\xa0±\xa01\xa0years, height 180\xa0±\xa06\xa0cm and body mass 72.4\xa0±\xa08.8\xa0kg', '104 male soldiers volunteered and took part']","['soldier task-specific training (TS), strength training (ST), and control (CON', 'POST']","['Serum TES concentration', 'Maximal isometric leg extension force', 'strength and power performance and serum hormone concentrations', 'strength and/or power of the lower and upper body', 'Serum COR concentrations', 'muscle strength and power performance']","[{'cui': 'C0444504', 'cui_str': 'Mean'}, {'cui': 'C0001779', 'cui_str': 'Age'}, {'cui': 'C0439234', 'cui_str': 'year'}, {'cui': 'C0005890', 'cui_str': 'Body height measure'}, {'cui': 'C4319557', 'cui_str': '180'}, {'cui': 'C0152338', 'cui_str': 'Structure of body of caudate nucleus'}, {'cui': 'C0577559', 'cui_str': 'Mass of body structure'}, {'cui': 'C4517882', 'cui_str': '8.8'}, {'cui': 'C4517527', 'cui_str': '104'}, {'cui': 'C0086582', 'cui_str': 'Male'}, {'cui': 'C0524647', 'cui_str': 'Soldiers'}, {'cui': 'C0042960', 'cui_str': 'Voluntary worker'}, {'cui': 'C1515187', 'cui_str': 'Take'}]","[{'cui': 'C0524647', 'cui_str': 'Soldiers'}, {'cui': 'C0205369', 'cui_str': 'Specific'}, {'cui': 'C0040607', 'cui_str': 'Training Programs'}, {'cui': 'C0872279', 'cui_str': 'Strength Training'}, {'cui': 'C0009932', 'cui_str': 'Control Groups'}, {'cui': 'C0687676', 'cui_str': 'After values'}]","[{'cui': 'C0229671', 'cui_str': 'Serum'}, {'cui': 'C0004268', 'cui_str': 'Attention'}, {'cui': 'C0205289', 'cui_str': 'Maximal'}, {'cui': 'C0022206', 'cui_str': 'Isometric exercise'}, {'cui': 'C0023216', 'cui_str': 'Lower limb structure'}, {'cui': 'C0231448', 'cui_str': 'Extension'}, {'cui': 'C0443221', 'cui_str': 'Forced'}, {'cui': 'C0019932', 'cui_str': 'Hormone'}, {'cui': 'C0205251', 'cui_str': 'Low'}, {'cui': 'C1268087', 'cui_str': 'Upper body structure'}, {'cui': 'C0018787', 'cui_str': 'Heart structure'}, {'cui': 'C0517349', 'cui_str': 'Muscle Strength'}]",104.0,0.0128887,"The development of strength and/or power of the lower and upper body was greater in the TS and ST groups, which is crucial for warfighter's performance.","[{'ForeName': 'Tommi', 'Initials': 'T', 'LastName': 'Ojanen', 'Affiliation': 'Finnish Defence Research Agency, Finnish Defence Forces, Järvenpää, Finland.'}, {'ForeName': 'Heikki', 'Initials': 'H', 'LastName': 'Kyröläinen', 'Affiliation': 'Biology of Physical Activity, University of Jyväskylä, Jyväskylä, Finland.'}, {'ForeName': 'Elena', 'Initials': 'E', 'LastName': 'Kozharskaya', 'Affiliation': 'Biology of Physical Activity, University of Jyväskylä, Jyväskylä, Finland.'}, {'ForeName': 'Keijo', 'Initials': 'K', 'LastName': 'Häkkinen', 'Affiliation': 'Biology of Physical Activity, University of Jyväskylä, Jyväskylä, Finland.'}]",Physiological reports,['10.14814/phy2.14422']
28,32348815,Addressing Chemophobia: Informational versus affect-based approaches.,"This study investigated the effect of two communication strategies (informational and affect-based) in reducing chemophobia, the irrational fear of chemicals. In an online experiment, participants (N = 448) were randomly assigned to one of three groups (""control"", ""knowledge"", or ""affect"" group). The following dependent variables were assessed: chemophobia, knowledge of basic toxicological principles, affect towards chemicals, benefit perception of the use of chemicals, and preference for natural substitutes in consumer products. The results showed that only the informational approach, which conveys knowledge of basic toxicological principles, significantly decreased chemophobia and the preference for natural substitutes in consumer products.

30,32354777,"Results of a prospective, mixed methods study to assess feasibility, acceptability and effectiveness of TRIumPH (Treatment and Recovery In PsycHosis): an integrated care pathway for psychosis, compared to usual treatment.","OBJECTIVES
To evaluate whether a newly developed care pathway, Treatment and Recovery In PsycHosis (TRIumPH), is feasible, acceptable and effective in meeting National Institute of Health and Care Excellence (NICE) quality standards in a timely manner.
METHODS
This is a pragmatic, non-randomised, prospective, mixed methods study comparing an implementation (TRIumPH) and comparator site (not implementing TRIumPH) across three cohorts to assess feasibility, acceptability and effectiveness of the integrated pathway.
SETTING
Early intervention in psychosis (EIP) services at two National Health Service organisations in South of England.
PARTICIPANTS
All patients accepted into EIP services between 1 June 2014 and 31 May 2017 were each followed up for 1 year within their respective cohorts.
METHODOLOGY
Quantitative data consisted of routinely collected clinical data retrieved from patient records to assess whether the implementation of TRIumPH achieved better concordance to NICE standards. These included time to access services, physical health assessments, clinical outcomes based timeliness of delivery and acute data. The controlled trial has evaluated the effect of TRIumPH (Intervention) with Care As Usual (Comparator). Qualitative measures consisted of questionnaires, interviews and focus groups to assess acceptability and satisfaction. Outcome measures were compared within the baseline, year 1 and year 2 cohorts and between the two sites. Quantitative data were statistically analysed by comparing means and proportions.
RESULTS
Time to assessment improved in the implementation site and remained within the target in comparator site. Meeting of quality standards increased substantially in the implementation site but was more variable and reached lower levels in the comparator site especially for physical health standards. Cognitive therapy for psychosis, family intervention and carer and employment support were all offered to a greater extent in the implementation site and uptake increased over the period.
CONCLUSIONS
Pathway implementation generally led to greater improvements in achievement of access and quality standards compared with comparator site.

31,32355959,Corticospinal-motor neuronal plasticity promotes exercise-mediated recovery in humans with spinal cord injury.,"Rehabilitative exercise in humans with spinal cord injury aims to engage residual neural networks to improve functional recovery. We hypothesized that exercise combined with non-invasive stimulation targeting spinal synapses further promotes functional recovery. Twenty-five individuals with chronic incomplete cervical, thoracic, and lumbar spinal cord injury were randomly assigned to 10 sessions of exercise combined with paired corticospinal-motor neuronal stimulation (PCMS) or sham-PCMS. In an additional experiment, we tested the effect of PCMS without exercise in 13 individuals with spinal cord injury with similar characteristics. During PCMS, 180 pairs of stimuli were timed to have corticospinal volleys evoked by transcranial magnetic stimulation over the primary motor cortex arrive at corticospinal-motor neuronal synapses of upper- or lower-limb muscles (depending on the injury level), 1-2 ms before antidromic potentials were elicited in motor neurons by electrical stimulation of a peripheral nerve. Participants exercised for 45 min after all protocols. We found that the time to complete subcomponents of the Graded and Redefined Assessment of Strength, Sensibility and Prehension (GRASSP) and the 10-m walk test decreased on average by 20% after all protocols. However, the amplitude of corticospinal responses elicited by transcranial magnetic stimulation and the magnitude of maximal voluntary contractions in targeted muscles increased on overage by 40-50% after PCMS combined or not with exercise but not after sham-PCMS combined with exercise. Notably, behavioural and physiological effects were preserved 6 months after the intervention in the group receiving exercise with PCMS but not in the group receiving exercise combined with sham-PCMS, suggesting that the stimulation contributed to preserve exercise gains. Our findings indicate that targeted non-invasive stimulation of spinal synapses might represent an effective strategy to facilitate exercise-mediated recovery in humans with different degrees of paralysis and levels of spinal cord injury.",2020,"Notably, behavioural and physiological effects were preserved 6 months after the intervention in the group receiving exercise with PCMS but not in the group receiving exercise combined with sham-PCMS, suggesting that the stimulation contributed to preserve exercise gains.","['humans with spinal cord injury', '13 individuals with spinal cord injury with similar characteristics', 'Twenty-five individuals with chronic incomplete cervical, thoracic, and lumbar spinal cord injury']","['PCMS without exercise', 'exercise combined with paired corticospinal-motor neuronal stimulation (PCMS) or sham-PCMS', 'Corticospinal-motor neuronal plasticity promotes exercise', 'Rehabilitative exercise', 'exercise combined with sham-PCMS']","['time to complete subcomponents of the Graded and Redefined Assessment of Strength, Sensibility and Prehension (GRASSP) and the 10-m walk test', 'behavioural and physiological effects']","[{'cui': 'C0086418', 'cui_str': 'Homo sapiens'}, {'cui': 'C0037929', 'cui_str': 'Spinal cord injury'}, {'cui': 'C0027361', 'cui_str': 'Person'}, {'cui': 'C3715062', 'cui_str': '25'}, {'cui': 'C0205191', 'cui_str': 'Chronic'}, {'cui': 'C0205257', 'cui_str': 'Incomplete'}, {'cui': 'C0027530', 'cui_str': 'Neck structure'}, {'cui': 'C0729233', 'cui_str': 'Dissecting aortic aneurysm, thoracic'}, {'cui': 'C0457848', 'cui_str': 'Segment of lumbar spinal cord'}, {'cui': 'C0005604', 'cui_str': 'Birth trauma'}]","[{'cui': 'C0907533', 'cui_str': 'NOS1 protein, human'}, {'cui': 'C1292856', 'cui_str': 'Stimulation'}, {'cui': 'C0015259', 'cui_str': 'Exercise'}, {'cui': 'C0205195', 'cui_str': 'Combined'}, {'cui': 'C0073980', 'cui_str': 'salicylhydroxamic acid'}, {'cui': 'C0027880', 'cui_str': 'Plasticity, Neuronal'}, {'cui': 'C0033414', 'cui_str': 'Promotion'}, {'cui': 'C0034991', 'cui_str': 'Rehabilitation therapy'}]","[{'cui': 'C0040223', 'cui_str': 'Time'}, {'cui': 'C0205197', 'cui_str': 'Complete'}, {'cui': 'C0441800', 'cui_str': 'Grade'}, {'cui': 'C0031809', 'cui_str': 'Physical examination'}, {'cui': 'C0439823', 'cui_str': 'Sensibilities'}, {'cui': 'C4277740', 'cui_str': 'Walk Test'}, {'cui': 'C0205463', 'cui_str': 'Physiologic'}, {'cui': 'C1280500', 'cui_str': 'Effect'}]",,0.223458,"Notably, behavioural and physiological effects were preserved 6 months after the intervention in the group receiving exercise with PCMS but not in the group receiving exercise combined with sham-PCMS, suggesting that the stimulation contributed to preserve exercise gains.","[{'ForeName': 'Hang Jin', 'Initials': 'HJ', 'LastName': 'Jo', 'Affiliation': 'University of Miami, Department of Neurological Surgery, The Miami Project to Cure Paralysis, and Bruce W.

This objective of this study was to determine if reversal of rocuronium-induced neuromuscular blockade with sugammadex versus neostigmine results in a decreased number of hypoxic episodes in the early postoperative period in patients undergoing thoracic surgery with single lung ventilation.
DESIGN
Single-center, randomized, double-blind, two-arm clinical trial.
SETTING
Operating room and postanesthesia care unit.
PATIENTS
92 subjects aged ≥18, American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status II-IV, and undergoing a thoracic operation necessitating single lung ventilation.
INTERVENTIONS
Subjects received either 2 mg/kg sugammadex or 50 μg/kg neostigmine with 8 μg/kg glycopyrrolate for reversal of moderate neuromuscular blockade.
MEASUREMENTS
For the first 90 min postoperatively, all episodes of hypoxia were recorded. Neuromuscular monitoring was performed with acceleromyography (TOF-Watch® SX) and the train of four (TOF) was recorded at 2, 5, 10, and 15 min after administration of the neuromuscular reversal agent.
MAIN RESULTS
Subjects who received neostigmine had a median of 1 episode (interquartile range IQR: 0-2.2) of hypoxia versus subjects who received sugammadex who had a median of 0 episodes (IQR: 0-1) (p = 0.009). The mean time to recovery of TOF ≥ 0.9 was significantly faster with sugammadex at 10 min (95% confidence interval CI: 5-15) compared with neostigmine at 40 min (95% CI: 15-53) (p < 0.001).

33,32353544,Medication treatment for opioid use disorder in expectant mothers (MOMs): Design considerations for a pragmatic randomized trial comparing extended-release and daily buprenorphine formulations.,"Opioid use disorder (OUD) in pregnant women has increased significantly in recent years. Maintaining these women on sublingual (SL) buprenorphine (BUP) is an evidence-based practice but BUP-SL is associated with several disadvantages that an extended-release (XR) BUP formulation could eliminate. The National Drug Abuse Treatment Clinical Trials Network (CTN) is conducting an intent-to-treat, two-arm, open-label, pragmatic randomized controlled trial, Medication treatment for Opioid-dependent expectant Mothers (MOMs), to compare mother and infant outcomes of pregnant women with OUD treated with BUP-XR, relative to BUP-SL. A second aim is to determine the relative economic value of utilizing BUP-XR. Approximately 300 pregnant women with an estimated gestational age (EGA) of 6-30 weeks, recruited from 12 sites, will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to BUP-XR or BUP-SL, balancing on site, EGA, and BUP-SL status (taking/not taking) at the time of randomization. Participants will be provided with study medication and attend weekly medication visits through 12 months postpartum. Participants will be invited to participate in two sub-studies to evaluate the: 1) mechanisms by which BUP-XR may improve mother and infant outcomes; and 2) effects of prenatal exposure to BUP-XR versus BUP-SL on infant neurodevelopment.

34,32354780,Study protocol for a prospective randomised double-blind placebo-controlled clinical trial investigating a Better Outcome with Melatonin compared to Placebo Administered to normalize sleep-wake cycle and treat hypoactive ICU Delirium: the Basel BOMP-AID study.,"INTRODUCTION
Delirium is frequently observed in the intensive care unit (ICU) population, in particular. Until today, there is no evidence for any reliable pharmacological intervention to treat delirium. The Basel BOMP-AID ( B etter O utcome with M elatonin compared to P lacebo A dministered to normalize sleep-wake cycle and treat hypoactive I CU D elirium) randomised trial targets improvement of hypoactive delirium therapy in critically ill patients and will be conducted as a counterpart to the Basel ProDex Study (Study Protocol, BMJ Open, July 2017) on hyperactive and mixed delirium. The aim of the BOMP-AID trial is to assess the superiority of melatonin to placebo for the treatment of hypoactive delirium in the ICU. The study hypothesis is based on the assumption that melatonin administered at night restores a normal circadian rhythm, and that restoration of a normal circadian rhythm will cure delirium.
METHODS AND ANALYSIS
The Basel BOMP-AID study is an investigator-initiated, single-centre, randomised controlled clinical trial for the treatment of hypoactive delirium with the once daily oral administration of melatonin 4 mg versus placebo in 190 critically ill patients. The primary outcome measure is delirium duration in 8-hour shifts. Secondary outcome measures include delirium-free days and death at 28 days after study inclusion, number of ventilator days, length of ICU and hospital stay, and sleep quality. Patients will be followed after 3 and 12 months for activities of daily living and mortality assessment. Sample size was calculated to demonstrate superiority of melatonin compared with placebo regarding the duration of delirium. Results will be presented using an intention-to-treat approach.
ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION
This study has been approved by the Ethics Committee of Northwestern and Central Switzerland and will be conducted in compliance with the protocol, the current version of the Declaration of Helsinki, the International Conference on Harmonisation (ICH) of technical requirements for registration of pharmaceuticals for human use; Good Clinical Practice (GCP) or ISO EN 14155 (as far as applicable), as well as all national legal and regulatory requirements. Study results will be presented in international conferences and published in a peer-reviewed journal.

35,32358353,"The effect of lung-conduction exercise in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease: Study protocol for randomized, assessor-blind, multicenter trial.","BACKGROUND
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is an irreversible disease characterized by cough, sputum production, and dyspnea, and has a high prevalence and mortality. Pulmonary rehabilitation (PR) is a management that improves the quality of life for COPD patients; however, PR is not readily accessible. Therefore, we developed lung-conduction exercises (LCE) that can be performed without any limitations. LCE consists of breathing, stretching, and tapping to relieve dyspnea in COPD patients.
METHODS/DESIGN
This randomized, assessor-blind, multicenter trial aims to recruit 54 patients with moderate and severe COPD. Subjects will be randomly allocated to a control group (only medication), an LCE group (medication + LCE, 5 times a week), or a PR group (medication + PR, 5 times a week). The 6-minute walk distance, pulmonary function tests (forced expiratory volume at 1 second, forced vital capacity, and forced expiratory volume at 1 second/forced vital capacity), modified Borg scale, modified medical research council dyspnea scale, COPD assessment test, and St. George respiratory questionnaire will be measured before starting the trial and after the 4th and 8th weeks to determine motor performance, lung function, and dyspnea.
CONCLUSION
We aim to demonstrate that LCE is effective in improving symptoms and psychosomatic stability in COPD patients. Therefore, this trial will play an important role in fortifying the foundation of clinical application.",2020,"The 6-minute walk distance, pulmonary function tests (forced expiratory volume at 1 second, forced vital capacity, and forced expiratory volume at 1 second/forced vital capacity), modified Borg scale, modified medical research council dyspnea scale, COPD assessment test, and St. George respiratory questionnaire will be measured before starting the trial and after the 4th and 8th weeks to determine motor performance, lung function, and dyspnea.

36,32358357,Consolidation period of 18 months no better at promoting off-treatment durability in HBeAg-positive chronic hepatitis B patients with tenofovir disoproxil fumarate treatment than a 12-month period: A prospective randomized cohort study.,"There has been no clear consensus on the optimal consolidation periods following HBeAg seroconversion (SC) in HBeAg-positive chronic hepatitis B (CHB) patients. Our study aimed to prospectively compare relapse rates between 12 months' and 18 months' consolidation periods to see whether or not there is beneficial durability of tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) therapy with longer consolidation periods.We enrolled a total of 137 HBeAg-positive Asian CHB patients treated with TDF monotherapy. Forty-six patients achieved HBeAg SC. Then, they were randomly assigned to consolidation period of either 12 months (group A) or 18 months (group B). After stopping TDF therapy, all patients were followed up for 12 months.Thirteen patients (56.5%) relapsed in group A and 12 patients (52.2%) relapsed in group B after 12 months' follow-up (P = .958). Pretreatment HBsAg level is the only significant predictor for off-therapy recurrence by univariate analysis (P = .024). Baseline HBeAg >1000 S/CO in group B patients were significantly less likely to relapse than those of group A (P = .046). Baseline alanine aminotransferase (ALT) >133 U/L could significantly predict occurrence of HBeAg SC (P = .008; 95% CI: 0.545-0.763; AUC: 0.654).Overall, a prolonged consolidation period has no positive effect on TDF therapy on sustained viral suppression in HBeAg-positive Asian CHB patients. However, a prolonged consolidation period was beneficial to patients with high baseline semi-quantitative HBeAg levels in terms of off-treatment durability.

37,32349629,Resistance training with blood flow restriction: Impact on the muscle strength and body composition in people living with HIV/AIDS.,"The aim of the study was to compare the impact of 12-week resistance training with blood flow restriction (G RTBFR ) versus, traditional resistance training (G TRT ) and non-training on the muscle strength and body composition HIV/AIDS participants. Muscle strength was tested at baseline, and on the 6th, 21st and 36th training sessions, using maximal repetition test. Pre- and post-intervention body composition changes were measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. Resistance training was undertaken three times a week comprising bilateral elbow extension and flexion exercises, unilateral flexion and bilateral knee extension. Changes in strength and body composition (pre- and post-intervention) between groups were evaluated by mixed models of repeated measures, and by paired and unpaired comparisons, considering the Effect Size. All groups were similar at baseline for muscle strength and body composition. Post-intervention, the training groups showed similar, statistically significant increases in muscle strength (G RTBFR =25.7-57.4%; G TRT= 24.5-52.3%) and skeletal muscle tissue (G RTBFR =8.4%; G TRT =8.3%). There was also a significant change in body fat ( p =0.023-0.043), with significant effect sizes for strength and skeletal muscle tissue (0.41-2.27), respectively.

39,32356416,Influence of Besifovir Dipivoxil Maleate Combined with L-Carnitine on Hepatic Steatosis in Patients with Chronic Hepatitis B.,"BACKGROUND
Besifovir dipivoxil maleate (BSV) with L-carnitine is the first-line antiviral agent for chronic hepatitis B (CHB) infection. We investigated whether BSV combined with L-carnitine improves hepatic steatosis (HS).
METHODS
Treatment-naïve patients with CHB who were initiated on antiviral therapy (AVT) were enrolled. The magnitude of HS was assessed using hepatic steatosis index (HSI), and HS improvement was defined as a ≥ 10% reduction in the HSI score from the baseline.
RESULTS
The mean age of the study patients was 56 years with a male predominance (n = 178, 64.7%). The mean body mass index (BMI), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), and platelet count were 23.5 kg/m², 49.6 IU/L, 49.0 IU/L, and 191.3 × 10⁹/L, respectively. The mean HSI and fibrosis (FIB)-4 index were 32.6 and 0.5, respectively. After 6 months of AVT, platelet count (mean, 191.3→167.0 × 10⁹/L), fasting glucose (mean, 113.1→105.9 mg/dL), AST (mean, 49.6→28.0 IU/L), ALT (mean, 49.0→33.9 IU/L), and total cholesterol (mean, 170.0→162.1 mg/dL) levels significantly decreased (all P < 0.05). In the BSV group, AST (mean, 95.2→30.2 IU/L) and ALT (mean, 81.1→31.1 IU/L) levels significantly reduced (all P < 0.05), whereas HSI and FIB-4 index were maintained (all P > 0.05). In the univariate analysis, age, BMI, diabetes, cirrhosis, fasting glucose level, and ALT were significantly associated with HS improvement (all P < 0.05).

This study was conducted to evaluate and compare the antimicrobial efficacy of green tea and its extract epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) as a mouthwash in children.
DESIGN
The study group included 47 children aged 5-12 years at high caries risk and prevalence. Children selected were asked to rinse with one of the substances (EGCG, green tea, chlorhexidine and distilled water) for one min. A non-stimulated salivary sample (2 mL) was collected at baseline and after rinsing. The concentration of cariogenic microorganisms (mutans streptococci and lactobacilli) was determined before and after rinsing based on the count of colony-forming units (CFU). CFU were counted with the aid of a stereomicroscope through the perfunctory identification of the morphological characteristics of CFU. The microbial reduction percentage was then calculated.
RESULTS
The analysis of the effectiveness of the treatments showed that there was a significant reduction in relation to the values obtained before and after the mouthwash, both for mutans streptococci (pCHX = 0.001; pEGCG = 0.001; pGreen Tea = 0.005; pDistilled Water = 0.018) and lactobacilli (pCHX = 0.001; pEGCG = 0.002; pGreen Tea = 0.008; pDistilled Water = 0.033). The percentage of microbial reduction of both cariogenic microorganisms caused by the EGCG solution was higher than green tea and distilled water, but less than CHX. The percentage of microbial reduction by the EGCG solution for mutans streptococci was 79.9%, green tea 68.3%, distilled water 50.6% and CHX 95.5%. For lactobacilli, the percentage reduction of all solutions was relatively lower when compared to mutans streptococci. For the EGCG solution it was 72.09%, followed by green tea 59.17% and distilled water 41.96%, but less than CHX 86.02%.
CONCLUSION
Rinsing with EGCG solution reduced the levels of mutans streptococci and lactobacilli in the oral cavity of children.

43,32357152,Effects of antenatal hypnosis on maternal salivary cortisol during childbirth and six weeks postpartum-A randomized controlled trial.,"BACKGROUND
Cortisol has been used to capture psychophysiological stress during childbirth and postpartum wellbeing. We explored the effect of a brief antenatal training course in self-hypnosis on salivary cortisol during childbirth and 6 weeks postpartum.
METHODS
In a randomized, controlled trial conducted at Aarhus University Hospital Skejby Denmark during the period January 2010 until October 2010, a total of 349 healthy nulliparous women were included. They were randomly allocated to a hypnosis group (n = 136) receiving three one-hour lessons in self-hypnosis with additional audio-recordings, a relaxation group (n = 134) receiving three one-hour lessons in various relaxation methods with audio-recordings for additional training, and a usual care group (n = 79) receiving ordinary antenatal care only. Salivary cortisol samples were collected during childbirth (at the beginning of the pushing state, 30 minutes, and 2 hours after childbirth), and 6 weeks postpartum (at wake up, 30 minutes after wake up, and evening). Cortisol concentrations were compared using a linear mixed-effects model. Correlations between cortisol concentrations and length of birth, experienced pain and calmness during birth were examined by a Spearman rank correlation test.
FINDINGS
During childbirth, week correlations were found between cortisol concentrations 30 minutes after childbirth and length of birth. In the beginning of the pushing state and 2 hours after childbirth, we found a tendency towards higher cortisol concentrations in the hypnosis group compared to the other two groups (hypnosis versus relaxation p = 0.02 and 0.03, hypnosis versus usual care p = 0.08 and 0.05). No differences were observed in cortisol concentrations between the groups 30 minutes after childbirth (hypnosis versus relaxation p = 0.08, hypnosis versus usual care 0.10) or 6 weeks postpartum (hypnosis versus relaxation: p = 0.85, 0.51, and 0.68, hypnosis versus usual care: p = 0.85, 0.93, and 0.96).

44,32375788,Reaching exercise for chronic paretic upper extremity after stroke using a novel rehabilitation robot with arm-weight support and concomitant electrical stimulation and vibration: before-and-after feasibility trial.,"BACKGROUND
Our group developed a rehabilitation robot to assist with repetitive, active reaching movement of a paretic upper extremity. The robot is equipped with a servo motor-controlled arm-weight support and works in conjunction with neuromuscular electrical stimulation and vibratory stimulation to facilitate agonist-muscle contraction. In this before-and-after pilot study, we assessed the feasibility of applying the robot to improve motor control and function of the hemiparetic upper extremity in patients who suffered chronic stroke.
METHODS
We enrolled 6 patients with chronic stroke and hemiparesis who, while sitting and without assistance, could reach 10 cm both sagitally and vertically (from a starting position located 10 cm forward from the patient's navel level) with the affected upper extremity. The patients were assigned to receive reaching exercise intervention with the robot (Yaskawa Electric Co., Ltd. Fukuoka, Japan) for 2 weeks at 15 min/day in addition to regular occupational therapy for 40 min/day. Outcomes assessed before and after 2 weeks of intervention included the upper extremity component of the Fugl-Meyer Assessment (UE-FMA), the Action Research Arm Test (ARAT), and, during reaching movement, kinematic analysis.
RESULTS
None of the patients experienced adverse events. The mean score of UE-FMA increased from 44.8 [SD 14.4] to 48.0 [SD 14.4] (p = 0.026, r = 0.91), and both the shoulder-elbow and wrist-hand scores increased after 2-week intervention. An increase was also observed in ARAT score, from mean 29.8 [SD 16.3] to 36.2 [SD 18.1] (p = 0.042, r = 0.83). Kinematic analysis during the reaching movement revealed a significant increase in active range of motion (AROM) at the elbow, and movement time tended to decrease. Furthermore, trajectory length for the wrist (""hand path"") and the acromion (""trunk compensatory movement"") showed a decreasing trend.
CONCLUSIONS
This robot-assisted modality is feasible and our preliminary findings suggest it improved motor control and motor function of the hemiparetic upper extremity in patients with chronic stroke. Training with this robot might induce greater AROM for the elbow and decrease compensatory trunk movement, thus contributing to movement efficacy and efficiency.

45,32362229,Effect of Intensive Blood Pressure Lowering on the Risk of Atrial Fibrillation.,"It remains uncertain whether intensive control of blood pressure (BP) results in a lower risk of atrial fibrillation (AF) in patients with hypertension. Using data from SPRINT (Systolic Blood Pressure Intervention Trial), which enrolled participants with hypertension at increased risk of cardiovascular disease, we examined whether intensive BP lowering (target systolic BP [SBP] <120 mm Hg), compared with standard BP lowering (target SBP<140 mm Hg), results in a lower risk of AF. This analysis included 8022 participants (4003 randomized to the intensive arm and 4019 to standard BP arm) who were free of AF at the time of enrollment and with available baseline and follow-up electrocardiographic data. AF was ascertained from standard 12-lead electrocardiograms recorded at biannual study examinations and an exit visit. During up to 5.2 years of follow-up and a total of 28 322 person-years, 206 incident AF cases occurred; 88 in the intensive BP-lowering arm and 118 in the standard BP-lowering arm. Intensive BP lowering was associated with a 26% lower risk of developing new AF (hazard ratio, 0.74 [95% CI, 0.56-0.98]; P =0.037). This effect was consistent among prespecified subgroups of SPRINT participants stratified by age, sex, race, SBP tertiles, prior cardiovascular disease, and prior chronic kidney disease when interactions between treatment effect and these subgroups were assessed using Hommel adjusted P values. In conclusion, intensive treatment to a target of SBP <120 mm Hg in patients with hypertension at high risk of cardiovascular disease has the potential to reduce the risk of AF.

46,32362231,Incidence and Implications of Atrial Fibrillation/Flutter in Hypertension: Insights From the SPRINT Trial.,"We evaluated the impact of intensive blood pressure control on the incidence of new-onset atrial fibrillation/flutter (AF) and the prognostic implications of preexisting and new-onset AF in SPRINT (Systolic Blood Pressure Intervention Trial) participants. New-onset AF was defined as occurrence of AF in 12-lead electrocardiograms after randomization in participants free of AF at baseline. Poisson regression modeling was used to calculate incident rates of new-onset AF. Multivariable-adjusted Cox proportional hazard models were used to evaluate the risk of adverse cardiovascular events (composite of myocardial infarction, non-myocardial infarction acute coronary syndrome, stroke, heart failure, or cardiovascular death). In 9327 participants, 8.45% had preexisting AF, and 1.65% had new-onset AF. The incidence of new-onset AF was 4.53 per 1000-person years, with similar rates in the standard and intensive treatment arms (4.95 versus 4.11 per 1000-person years; adjusted P =0.14). Participants with preexisting AF (adjusted hazard ratio, 1.83 [95% CI, 1.46-2.31]; P <0.001) and new-onset AF (adjusted hazard ratio, 2.45 [95% CI, 1.58-3.80]; P <0.001) had a greater risk for development of adverse cardiovascular events compared with those with no AF. Participants with preexisting AF who achieved blood pressure <120/80 mm Hg at 3 months continued have a poor prognosis (adjusted hazard ratio, 1.88 [95% CI, 1.32-2.70]; P =0.001) compared with those with no AF. Intensive blood pressure control does not diminish the incidence of new-onset AF in an older, high-risk, nondiabetic population.

47,32370774,Electronic pillbox-enabled self-administered therapy versus standard directly observed therapy for tuberculosis medication adherence and treatment outcomes in Ethiopia (SELFTB): protocol for a multicenter randomized controlled trial.,"BACKGROUND
To address the multifaceted challenges associated with tuberculosis (TB) in-person directly observed therapy (DOT), the World Health Organization recently recommended that countries maximize the use of digital adherence technologies. Sub-Saharan Africa needs to investigate the effectiveness of such technologies in local contexts and proactively contribute to global decisions around patient-centered TB care. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of pillbox-enabled self-administered therapy (SAT) compared to standard DOT on adherence to TB medication and treatment outcomes in Ethiopia. It also aims to assess the usability, acceptability, and cost-effectiveness of the intervention from the patient and provider perspectives.
METHODS
This is a multicenter, randomized, controlled, open-label, superiority, effectiveness-implementation hybrid, mixed-methods, two-arm trial. The study is designed to enroll 144 outpatients with new or previously treated, bacteriologically confirmed, drug-sensitive pulmonary TB who are eligible to start the standard 6-month first-line anti-TB regimen. Participants in the intervention arm (n = 72) will receive 15 days of HRZE-isoniazid, rifampicin, pyrazinamide, and ethambutol-fixed-dose combination therapy in the evriMED500 medication event reminder monitor device for self-administration. When returned, providers will count any remaining tablets in the device, download the pill-taking data, and refill based on preset criteria. Participants can consult the provider in cases of illness or adverse events outside of scheduled visits. Providers will handle participants in the control arm (n = 72) according to the standard in-person DOT. Both arms will be followed up throughout the 2-month intensive phase. The primary outcomes will be medication adherence and sputum conversion. Adherence to medication will be calculated as the proportion of patients who missed doses in the intervention (pill count) versus DOT (direct observation) arms, confirmed further by IsoScreen urine isoniazid test and a self-report of adherence on eight-item Morisky Medication Adherence Scale. Sputum conversion is defined as the proportion of patients with smear conversion following the intensive phase in intervention versus DOT arms, confirmed further by pre-post intensive phase BACTEC MGIT TB liquid culture. Pre-post treatment MGIT drug susceptibility testing will determine whether resistance to anti-TB drugs could have impacted culture conversion. Secondary outcomes will include other clinical outcomes (treatment not completed, death, or loss to follow-up), cost-effectiveness-individual and societal costs with quality-adjusted life years-and acceptability and usability of the intervention by patients and providers.
DISCUSSION
This study will be the first in Ethiopia, and of the first three in sub-Saharan Africa, to determine whether electronic pillbox-enabled SAT improves adherence to TB medication and treatment outcomes, all without affecting the inherent dignity and economic wellbeing of patients with TB.

Aerobic exercise training (AT) improves endothelial function. However, the effects of resistance training (RT) and combined training (CT) on endothelial function remain controversial in individuals with SAH. We determined the effects of AT, RT, and CT on endothelial function and systolic (SBP)/diastolic blood pressure (DBP) in individuals with prehypertension or hypertension. Forty-two participants (54 ± 11 y, resting SBP/DBP 137 ± 9/86 ± 6 mmHg) were randomly allocated into AT (n = 14, 40 min of cycling, 50-75% heart rate reserve), RT (n = 14, 6 resistance exercises, 4 × 12 repetitions, 60% maximum strength) and CT (n = 14, 2 × 12 repetitions of RT + 20 min of AT). All participants performed a 40-minute exercise session twice a week for 8 weeks. Endothelial function was evaluated by brachial artery flow-mediated dilation (FMD). Blood pressure was evaluated through ambulatory monitoring for 24 hours. After 8 weeks of exercise training, blood pressure was reduced in all 3 groups: -5.1 mmHg in SBP (95%CI -10.1, 0.0; p = 0.003) in AT; -4.0 mmHg in SBP (95%CI -7.8, -0.5; p = 0.027) in RT; and -3.2 mmHg in DBP (95%CI -7.9, 1.5; p = 0.001) in CT.

49,32374724,The impact of an integrated depression and HIV treatment program on mental health and HIV care outcomes among people newly initiating antiretroviral therapy in Malawi.,"BACKGROUND
Depression is highly prevalent among patients newly starting antiretroviral treatment (ART) in Malawi and many other countries. Untreated depression at ART initiation can disrupt the HIV care continuum. Effective approaches for depression screening and treatment exist for low-resource settings, but they are rarely applied. Identifying effective implementation strategies are critical.
METHODS
A pilot program integrated depression screening and treatment into routine HIV care using existing staff at two public health clinics in Malawi in two phases; a screening-only ""control"" phase and an active ""intervention"" phase. During the intervention phase, providers prescribed antidepressants or referred patients for Friendship Bench problem-solving therapy. We evaluated the program's impact on retention in HIV care, viral suppression, and depression remission at 6 months using tabular comparisons and log-binomial models to estimate adjusted risk ratios and mean differences among the intervention group relative to the control group.
RESULTS
Nearly all consenting participants were screened for depression appropriately and 25% had mild to severe depressive symptoms. During the intervention phase, 86% of participants with mild depressive symptoms started Friendship Bench therapy and 96% of participants with moderate to severe depressive symptoms started antidepressants. Few participants in the intervention group received consistent depression treatment over their first 6 months in care. In the adjusted main analysis, program exposure did not demonstrably affect most HIV or mental health outcomes, though the probability of currently being on ART at 6 months was significantly lower among the intervention group than the control group [RR 0.6(95%CI: 0.4-0.9)].
CONCLUSIONS
While it is feasible to integrate depression screening and treatment initiation into ART initiation, providing ongoing depression treatment over time is challenging.

50,32364879,Pro-Con Perspectives on Ethics in Surgical Research: Update from the 39th Annual Surgical Infection Society Meeting.,"Background: Surgical research is potentially invasive, high-risk, and costly. Research that advances medical dogma must justify both its ends and its means. Although ethical questions do not always have simple answers, it is critically important for the clinician, researcher, and patient to approach these dilemmas and surgical research in a thoughtful, conscientious manner. Methods: We present four ethical issues in surgical research and discuss the opposing viewpoints. These topics were presented and discussed at the 39th Annual Meeting of the Surgical Infection Society as pro-con debates. The presenters of each opinion developed a succinct summary of their respective reviews for this publication. Results: The key subjects for these pro-con debates were: (1) Should patients be enrolled for time-sensitive surgical infection research using an opt-out or an opt-in strategy? (2) Should patients who are being enrolled in a randomized controlled trial (RCT) comparing surgery with a non-operative intervention pay the costs of their treatment arm? (3) Should the scientific community embrace open access journals as the future of scientific publishing? (4) Should the majority of funding go to clinical or basic science research? Important points were illustrated in each of the pro-con presentations and illustrated the difficulties that are facing the performance and payment of infection research in the future. Conclusions: Surgical research is ethically complex, with conflicting demands between individual patients, society, and healthcare economics. At present, there are no clear answers to these and the many other ethical issues facing research in the future. Answers will only come from continued robust dialogue among all stakeholders in surgical research.",2020,Important points were illustrated in each of the pro-con presentations and illustrated the difficulties that are facing the performance and payment of infection research in the future. ,['Surgical Research'],[],[],"[{'cui': 'C0543467', 'cui_str': 'Surgery'}, {'cui': 'C0242481', 'cui_str': 'Research Activities'}]",[],[],4.0,0.0241724,Important points were illustrated in each of the pro-con presentations and illustrated the difficulties that are facing the performance and payment of infection research in the future. ,"[{'ForeName': 'Vanessa P', 'Initials': 'VP', 'LastName': 'Ho', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Surgery, MetroHealth Medical Center, Cleveland, Ohio, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Evelyn I', 'Initials': 'EI', 'LastName': 'Truong', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Surgery, MetroHealth Medical Center, Cleveland, Ohio, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Saira', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Nisar', 'Affiliation': 'The Burn Center, Medstar Washington Hospital Center, Department of Surgery, Georgetown University School of Medicine, Washington, DC, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Addison K', 'Initials': 'AK', 'LastName': 'May', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Surgery, Carolinas Medical Center, Atrium Health, Charlotte, North Carolina, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Gregory J', 'Initials': 'GJ', 'LastName': 'Beilman', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Surgery, University of Minnesota, Minneapolis, Minnesota, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Donald E', 'Initials': 'DE', 'LastName': 'Fry', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Surgery, Northwestern University, Chicago, Illinois, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Philip S', 'Initials': 'PS', 'LastName': 'Barie', 'Affiliation': 'Departments of Surgery and Public Health, Weill Cornell Medical College, New York, New York, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Jared M', 'Initials': 'JM', 'LastName': 'Huston', 'Affiliation': 'Departments of Surgery and Science Education, Zucker School of Medicine at Hofstra/Northwell, Hempstead, New York, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Jeffrey W', 'Initials': 'JW', 'LastName': 'Shupp', 'Affiliation': 'The Burn Center, Medstar Washington Hospital Center, Department of Surgery, Georgetown University School of Medicine, Washington, DC, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Fredric M', 'Initials': 'FM', 'LastName': 'Pieracci', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Surgery, Denver Health Medical Center/University of Colorado School of Medicine, Denver, Colorado, USA.'}]",Surgical infections,['10.1089/sur.2020.098']

We evaluated the bioequivalence of 2 doses of an FDC of extended-release metformin (metformin XR), empagliflozin, a sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitor, and linagliptin, a dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitor, versus corresponding free tablet combinations. Methods : Two randomized, open-label, two-way crossover studies in healthy adults compared: 2 FDC tablets of empagliflozin 5 mg/linagliptin 2.5 mg/metformin XR 1000 mg (Study 1; N = 30), 1 FDC tablet of empagliflozin 25 mg/linagliptin 5 mg/metformin XR 1000 mg (Study 2; N = 30) versus corresponding dose of free combinations. Subjects received study medication under fed conditions; washout was ≥35 days between treatments. Primary endpoints: area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC) from time 0 to last quantifiable data point for empagliflozin and metformin; AUC from time 0 to 72 hours for linagliptin, and peak plasma concentration (C max ) for empagliflozin, linagliptin, and metformin. Bioequivalence was defined as adjusted geometric mean ratios (FDC: free combination) and two-sided 90% confidence intervals (CIs) of AUC and C max for each component within 80.00-125.00%. Results : Study 1: 27/29 and 28/30 treated participants were included in the pharmacokinetic analysis for the FDC and free combination periods, respectively. Study 2: 29/29 treated participants were included in the pharmacokinetic analysis for both periods. The adjusted geometric mean ratios of FDCs to their respective free tablet combinations and two-sided 90% CIs were all within the predefined range. The shapes of the mean plasma concentration-time profile of empagliflozin, linagliptin, and metformin XR were similar for subjects in the FDC and free combination groups in both studies. No serious adverse events were reported. Conclusion : The evaluated doses of empagliflozin/linagliptin/metformin XR FDC tablets were bioequivalent to the corresponding free combinations.

53,32371520,"Study protocol for a randomised controlled trial evaluating an evidence-based, stepped and coordinated care service model for mental disorders (RECOVER).","INTRODUCTION
Healthcare systems around the world are looking for solutions to the growing problem of mental disorders. RECOVER is the synonym for an evidence-based, stepped and cross-sectoral coordinated care service model for mental disorders. RECOVER implements a cross-sectoral network with managed care, comprehensive psychological, somatic and social diagnostics, crisis resolution and a general structure of four severity levels, each with assigned evidence-based therapy models (eg, assertive community treatment) and therapies (eg, psychotherapy). The study rationale is the investigation of the effectiveness and efficiency of stepped and integrated care in comparison to standard care.
METHODS AND ANALYSIS
The trial is conducted in accordance to the Standard Protocol Items: Recommendations for Interventional Trials Statement. The study aims to compare the RECOVER model with treatment as usual (TAU). The following questions are examined: Does RECOVER reduce healthcare costs compared with TAU? Does RECOVER improve patient-relevant outcomes? Is RECOVER cost-effective compared with TAU? A total sample of 890 patients with mental disorders will be assessed at baseline and individually randomised into RECOVER or TAU. Follow-up assessments are conducted after 6 and 12 months. As primary outcomes, cost reduction, improvement in symptoms, daily functioning and quality of life as well as cost-effectiveness ratios will be measured. In addition, several secondary outcomes will be assessed. Primary and secondary outcomes are evaluated according to the intention-to-treat principle. Mixed linear or logistic regression models are used with the direct maximum likelihood estimation procedure which results in unbiassed estimators under the missing-at-random assumption. Costs due to healthcare utilisation and productivity losses are evaluated using difference-in-difference regressions.
ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION
Ethical approval from the ethics committee of the Hamburg Medical Association has been obtained (PV5672). The results will be disseminated to service users and their families via the media, to healthcare professionals via professional training and meetings and to researchers via conferences and publications.

54,32379269,Olanzapine for the Treatment of Advanced Cancer-Related Chronic Nausea and/or Vomiting: A Randomized Pilot Trial.,"Importance
Nausea and vomiting, unrelated to chemotherapy, can be substantial symptoms in patients with advanced cancer.
Objective
To evaluate the utility of olanzapine for treating chronic nausea/vomiting, unrelated to chemotherapy, in patients with advanced cancer.
Design, Setting, and Participants
This study is a double-line, placebo-controlled, randomized clinical trial conducted from July 2017 through April 2019, with analysis conducted in 2019. Eligible participants were outpatients with advanced cancer who had persistent nausea/vomiting without having had chemotherapy or radiotherapy in the prior 14 days. Chronic nausea was present for at least 1 week (worst daily nausea numeric rating scores needed to be greater than 3 on a 0-10 scale).
Interventions
Patients received olanzapine (5 mg) or a placebo, orally, daily for 7 days.
Main Outcomes and Measures
Patient-reported outcomes were used for study end points. Data were collected at baseline and daily for 7 more days. The primary study end point (the change in nausea numeric rating scores from baseline to the last treatment day) and the study hypothesis were both identified prior to data collection.
Results
A total of 30 patients (15 per arm) were enrolled; these included 16 women and 14 men who had a mean (range) age of 63 (39-79) years. Baseline median nausea scores, in all patients, were 9 out of 10 (range, 8-10). After 1 day and 1 week, the median nausea scores in the placebo arm were 9 out of 10 (range, 8-10) on both days, compared with the olanzapine arm scores of 2 out of 10 (range, 2-3) after day 1 and 1 out of 10 (range, 0-3) after 1 week. After 1 week of treatment, the reduction in nausea scores in the olanzapine arm was 8 points (95% CI, 7-8) higher than that of the placebo arm. The primary 2-sided end point P value was <.001. Correspondingly, patients in the olanzapine arm reported less emesis, less use of other antiemetic drugs, better appetite, less sedation, less fatigue, and better well-being. One patient, on the placebo, stopped treatment early owing to lack of perceived benefit. No patients receiving olanzapine reported excess sedation or any other adverse event.
Conclusions and Relevance
Olanzapine, at 5 mg/d, appeared to be effective in controlling nausea and emesis and in improving other symptoms and quality-of-life parameters in the study population.

55,32379280,Effect of Combined Immune Checkpoint Inhibition vs Best Supportive Care Alone in Patients With Advanced Colorectal Cancer: The Canadian Cancer Trials Group CO.26 Study.,"Importance
Single-agent immune checkpoint inhibition has not shown activities in advanced refractory colorectal cancer (CRC), other than in those patients who are microsatellite-instability high (MSI-H).
Objective
To evaluate whether combining programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) and cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated protein 4 (CTLA-4) inhibition improved patient survival in metastatic refractory CRC.
Design, Setting, and Participants
A randomized phase 2 study was conducted in 27 cancer centers across Canada between August 2016 and June 2017, and data were analyzed on October 18, 2018. Eligible patients had histologically confirmed adenocarcinoma of the colon or rectum; received all available standard systemic therapies (fluoropyrimidines, oxaliplatin, irinotecan, and bevacizumab if appropriate; cetuximab or panitumumab if RAS wild-type tumors; regorafenib if available); were aged 18 years or older; had adequate organ function; had Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status of 0 or 1, and measurable disease.
Interventions
We randomly assigned patients to receive either 75 mg of tremelimumab every 28 days for the first 4 cycles plus 1500 mg durvalumab every 28 days, or best supportive care alone (BSC) in a 2:1 ratio.
Main Outcomes and Measures
The primary end point was overall survival (OS) and a 2-sided P<.10 was considered statistically significant. Circulating cell-free DNA from baseline plasma was used to determine microsatellite instability (MSI) and tumor mutation burden (TMB).
Results
Of 180 patients enrolled (121 men [67.2%] and 59 women [32.8%]; median [range] age, 65 [36-87] years), 179 were treated. With a median follow-up of 15.2 months, the median OS was 6.6 months for durvalumab and tremelimumab and 4.1 months for BSC (hazard ratio [HR], 0.72; 90% CI, 0.54-0.97; P = .07). Progression-free survival was 1.8 months and 1.9 months respectively (HR, 1.01; 90% CI, 0.76-1.34). Grade 3 or 4 adverse events were significantly more frequent with immunotherapy (75 [64%] patients in the treatment group had at least 1 grade 3 or higher adverse event vs 12 [20%] in the BSC group). Circulating cell-free DNA analysis was successful in 168 of 169 patients with available samples. In patients who were microsatellite stable (MSS), OS was significantly improved with durvalumab and tremelimumab (HR, 0.66; 90% CI, 0.49-0.89; P = .02). Patients who were MSS with plasma TMB of 28 variants per megabase or more (21% of MSS patients) had the greatest OS benefit (HR, 0.34; 90% CI, 0.18-0.63; P = .004).
Conclusions and Relevance
This phase 2 study suggests that combined immune checkpoint inhibition with durvalumab plus tremelimumab may be associated with prolonged OS in patients with advanced refractory CRC. Elevated plasma TMB may select patients most likely to benefit from durvalumab and tremelimumab. Further confirmation studies are warranted.

56,32379288,Facedown Positioning Following Surgery for Large Full-Thickness Macular Hole: A Multicenter Randomized Clinical Trial.,"Importance
The value of facedown positioning following surgery for large full-thickness macular holes is unknown.
Objective
To determine whether advice to position facedown postoperatively improves the outcome for large macular holes.
Design, Setting, and Participants
This randomized, parallel group superiority trial with 1:1 randomization stratified by site with 3 months' follow-up was conducted at 9 sites across the United Kingdom and included participants with an idiopathic full-thickness macular hole of at least 400 μm minimum linear diameter and a duration of fewer than 12 months. All participants had vitrectomy surgery with peeling of the internal limiting membrane and injection of perfluoropropane (14%) gas, with or without simultaneous surgery for cataract.
Interventions
Following surgery, participants were randomly advised to position either facedown or face forward for 8 hours daily for 5 days.
Main Outcomes and Measures
The primary outcome was closure of the macular hole determined 3 months following surgery by masked optical coherence tomography evaluation. Secondary outcome measures at 3 months were visual acuity, participant-reported experience of positioning, and quality of life measured by the National Eye Institute Visual Function Questionnaire 25.
Results
A total of 185 participants (45 men [24.3%]; 156 white [84.3%]; 9 black [4.9%]; 10 Asian [5.4%]; median age, 69 years [interquartile range, 64-73 years]) were randomized. Macular hole closure was observed in 90 (85.6%) who were advised to position face forward and 88 (95.5%) advised to position facedown (adjusted odds ratio, 3.15; 95% CI, 0.87-11.41; P = .08). The mean (SD) improvement in best-corrected visual acuity at 3 months was 0.34 (0.69) logMAR (equivalent to 1 Snellen line) in the face-forward group and 0.57 (0.42) logMAR (equivalent to 3 Snellen lines) in the facedown group (adjusted mean difference, 0.22 [95 % CI, 0.05-0.38]; equivalent to 2 Snellen lines); 95% CI, 0.05-0.38; P = .01). The median National Eye Institute Visual Function Questionnaire 25 score was 89 (interquartile range, 76-94) in the facedown group and 87 (interquartile range, 73-93) in the face-forward group (mean [SD] change on a logistic scale, 0.08 [0.26] face forward and 0.11 [0.25] facedown; adjusted mean [SD] difference on a logistic scale, 0.02; 95% CI, -0.03 to 0.07; P = .41).
Conclusions and Relevance
The results do not prove that facedown positioning following surgery is more likely to close large macular holes compared with facing forward but do support the possibility that visual acuity outcomes may be superior.

58,32379976,The Benefits of T'ai Chi for Older Adults with Chronic Back Pain: A Qualitative Study.,"Objective: To determine the perceived benefits of t'ai chi in older adults with chronic low-back pain (cLBP). Design: A qualitative analysis from a randomized controlled feasibility trial. Subjects: Eighteen participants (65+ years old) with cLBP of at least moderate intensity. Intervention: A 36-week intervention beginning with twice weekly classes for 12 weeks, weekly classes for 6 weeks, biweekly classes for 6 weeks, and monthly classes for 12 weeks. Participants were asked to practice at home on nonclass days and videos were provided to assist in that process. Outcome Measures: Participants in the focus groups were asked to provide feedback on their experiences with the study as well as the benefits of their t'ai chi practice. We used demographic and class attendance data to describe the sample. Results: Regarding the benefits of t'ai chi practice, five major themes were identified: functional benefits, pain reduction/pain relief, psychospiritual benefits, the importance of social support in learning t'ai chi , and the integration of t'ai chi into daily activities. The most common functional benefits were improvements in balance, flexibility, leg strength, and posture. Some reported pain reduction or pain relief, but others did not. Increased relaxation, mindfulness, and a sense of connectedness were subthemes that emerged from psychospiritual benefits. Social support benefits included motivation to attend class and group support while learning a new skill. Finally, improved body awareness allowed participants to integrate t'ai chi skills into their daily activities.

Trastuzumab (Tmab), pertuzumab (Pmab), and taxane has been a standard first-line treatment for recurrent or metastatic human epidermal growth factor (HER2)-positive breast cancer (HER2 + mBC) but has some safety issues due to taxane-induced toxicities. This has led to ongoing efforts to seek less toxic alternatives to taxanes that are equally effective when used in combination with Tmab plus Pmab. This study aims to show the non-inferiority of eribulin, a non-taxane microtubule inhibitor, against taxane, as a partner for dual HER2 blockade.
METHODS/DESIGN
This multicenter, randomized, open-label, parallel-group, phase III study will involve a total of 480 Japanese women with HER2 + mBC who meet the following requirements: (1) age 20-70 years; (2) no prior cytotoxic chemotherapy (excluding trastuzumab-emtansine) for mBC; (3) ≥ 6 months after prior neoadjuvant or adjuvant cytotoxic chemotherapy; (4) presence of any radiologically evaluable lesion; (5) left ventricular ejection fraction ≥ 50%; (6) Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status score of 0 or 1; (7) adequate organ function; and (8) life expectancy of at least 6 months. They will be randomized 1:1 to receive eribulin (1.4 mg/m 2 on days 1 and 8) or taxane (docetaxel 75 mg/m 2 on day 1 or paclitaxel 80 mg/m 2 on days 1, 8, and 15) in combination with Tmab (8 mg/kg then 6 mg/kg) plus Pmab (840 mg then 420 mg) on day 1 of each 21-day cycle. The treatment will be continued until disease progression or unmanageable toxicity. The primary endpoint is progression-free survival as per investigator according to RECIST v1.1 criteria. Key secondary endpoints include objective response rate, overall survival, quality of life and safety. Non-inferiority will be tested with two margins of 1.33 and 1.25 in a stepwise manner. If non-inferiority is shown with a margin of 1.25, superiority will then be tested.
DISCUSSION
If this study shows the non-inferiority, or even superiority, of Tmab, Pmab, and eribulin against the existing taxane-containing regimen, this new regimen may become a standard first- or second-line treatment option for HER2 + mBC in Japan.

60,32381030,Graphing and reporting heterogeneous treatment effects through reference classes.,"BACKGROUND
Exploration and modelling of heterogeneous treatment effects as a function of baseline covariates is an important aspect of precision medicine in randomised controlled trials (RCTs). Randomisation generally guarantees the internal validity of an RCT, but heterogeneity in treatment effect can reduce external validity. Estimation of heterogeneous treatment effects is usually done via a predictive model for individual outcomes, where one searches for interactions between treatment allocation and important patient baseline covariates. However, such models are prone to overfitting and multiple testing and typically demand a transformation of the outcome measurement, for example, from the absolute risk in the original RCT to log-odds of risk in the predictive model.
METHODS
We show how reference classes derived from baseline covariates can be used to explore heterogeneous treatment effects via a two-stage approach. We first estimate a risk score which captures on a single dimension some of the heterogeneity in outcomes of the trial population. Heterogeneity in the treatment effect can then be explored via reweighting schemes along this axis of variation. This two-stage approach bypasses the search for interactions with multiple covariates, thus protecting against multiple testing. It also allows for exploration of heterogeneous treatment effects on the original outcome scale of the RCT. This approach would typically be applied to multivariable models of baseline risk to assess the stability of average treatment effects with respect to the distribution of risk in the population studied.
CASE STUDY
We illustrate this approach using the single largest randomised treatment trial in severe falciparum malaria and demonstrate how the estimated treatment effect in terms of absolute mortality risk reduction increases considerably in higher risk strata.
CONCLUSIONS
'Local' and 'tilting' reweighting schemes based on ranking patients by baseline risk can be used as a general approach for exploring, graphing and reporting heterogeneity of treatment effect in RCTs.

61,32381031,Care after pancreatic resection according to an algorithm for early detection and minimally invasive management of pancreatic fistula versus current practice (PORSCH-trial): design and rationale of a nationwide stepped-wedge cluster-randomized trial.,"BACKGROUND
Pancreatic resection is a major abdominal operation with 50% risk of postoperative complications. A common complication is pancreatic fistula, which may have severe clinical consequences such as postoperative bleeding, organ failure and death. The objective of this study is to investigate whether implementation of an algorithm for early detection and minimally invasive management of pancreatic fistula may improve outcomes after pancreatic resection.
METHODS
This is a nationwide stepped-wedge, cluster-randomized, superiority trial, designed in adherence to the Consolidated Standards of Reporting Trials (CONSORT) guidelines. During a period of 22 months, all Dutch centers performing pancreatic surgery will cross over in a randomized order from current practice to best practice according to the algorithm. This evidence-based and consensus-based algorithm will provide daily multilevel advice on the management of patients after pancreatic resection (i.e. indication for abdominal imaging, antibiotic treatment, percutaneous drainage and removal of abdominal drains). The algorithm is designed to aid early detection and minimally invasive step-up management of postoperative pancreatic fistula. Outcomes of current practice will be compared with outcomes after implementation of the algorithm. The primary outcome is a composite of major complications (i.e. post-pancreatectomy bleeding, new-onset organ failure and death) and will be measured in a sample size of at least 1600 patients undergoing pancreatic resection. Secondary endpoints include the individual components of the primary endpoint and other clinical outcomes, healthcare resource utilization and costs analysis. Follow up will be up to 90 days after pancreatic resection.
DISCUSSION
It is hypothesized that a structured nationwide implementation of a dedicated algorithm for early detection and minimally invasive step-up management of postoperative pancreatic fistula will reduce the risk of major complications and death after pancreatic resection, as compared to current practice.

62,32381052,Translation of two healthy eating and active living support programs for parents of 2-6 year old children: a parallel partially randomised preference trial protocol (the 'time for healthy habits' trial).,"BACKGROUND
Parents are key decision makers and role models in establishing and maintaining healthy behaviours in their children. Interventions involving parents have been shown to be more effective than those that do not, but there are barriers to participation. Efficacy trials have previously been conducted on two such parent-focussed healthy eating and active living interventions with the potential to overcome these barriers - Healthy Habits (telephone-based) and Time2bHealthy (online) with promising results. Further research is now required to determine the effectiveness of these interventions in a real-world context. The Time for Healthy Habits study is a 3-arm partially randomised preference trial which aims to evaluate the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of two theory-based programs to promote healthy eating and appropriate levels of movement behaviours (physical activity, sedentary behaviour and sleep) for parents of 2- to 6-year-old children (Healthy Habits Plus telephone-based program and Time2bHealthy online program), when compared to a comparison group receiving written materials.
METHODS
Participants will be recruited across five Local Health Districts in New South Wales, Australia. The partially randomised preference design initially allows for participants to decide if they wish to be randomised or opt to select their preferred intervention and has been recommended for use to test effectiveness in a real-world setting. Both interventions incorporate multiple behaviour change techniques and support parents to improve their children's healthy eating, and movement behaviours (physical activity, sedentary behaviour and sleep) and run for 12 weeks, followed by a 3-month and 9-month post-baseline follow-up. Participants will also be asked to complete a process evaluation questionnaire at the completion of the intervention (3-months post-baseline). Outcomes include fruit and vegetable intake (primary outcome), non-core food intake, weight status, physical activity, sedentary behaviour, and sleep habits.
DISCUSSION
To our knowledge, this is the first translational research trial evaluating the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of a healthy eating and active living intervention in the 2- to 6-years age group. The results will build the evidence base in regard to translation of effective childhood obesity prevention interventions and inform the implementation and delivery of community based childhood obesity prevention programs.

63,32381097,"Survive and Thrive in Brazil: The Boa Vista Early Childhood Program: study protocol of a stepped-wedge, randomized controlled trial.","BACKGROUND
A growing body of evidence suggests that early life health and developmental outcomes can be improved through parental support programs. The objective of this project was to test the feasibility, impact, and relative cost-effectiveness of an adapted ""Reach Up and Learn"" program delivered through home-visiting programs as well as through center-based parenting groups on child health and development in the municipality of Boa Vista, Brazil.
METHODS
A randomized, stepped-wedge design was used to roll out and evaluate the two parenting platforms in Boa Vista municipality. A total of 39 neighborhoods with a high Neighborhood Vulnerability Index were selected for the study. For the first phase of the program, nine neighborhoods were randomly selected for home visits, and two were randomly selected for the center-based parenting groups. In the second phase of the program, 10 neighborhoods were added to the home-visiting program, and eight were added to the center-based program. In the final phase of the program, the remaining 10 control areas will also be assigned to treatment. Study eligibility will be assessed through a baseline survey completed by all pregnant women in the 39 study areas. Pregnant women will be eligible to participate in the study if they are either classified as poor, were under age 20 years when they became pregnant, or if they indicate to have been exposed to domestic or sexual violence. To assess program impact, an endline survey will be conducted when children reach age 2 years. The primary study outcome is child development at age 2 years as measured by the PRIDI instrument. Secondary outcome will be infant mortality, which will be assessed linking municipal vital registration systems to the program rollout.
DISCUSSION
This trial will assess the feasibility and impact of parenting programs rolled out at medium scale. The results from the trial should create evidence urgently needed for guiding Brazil's national Criança Feliz program as well as similar efforts in other countries.

64,32384885,Effects of reflection and immediate feedback to improve clinical reasoning of medical students in the assessment of dermatologic conditions: a randomised controlled trial.,"BACKGROUND
There are few studies that directly compared different interventions to improve medical students' clinical reasoning for dermatologic conditions.
OBJECTIVE
To investigate the effectiveness of adding practice with reflection and immediate feedback on traditional dermatology electives in improving medical students' ability in evaluating skin lesions.
METHODS
The participants were fourth-year medical students of Seoul National University College of Medicine, Korea, who were enrolled to take a 2-week dermatology elective course (n = 87). Students were assigned to one of the three educational interventions: 2-h training involving 10 written clinical cases (experimental); 1-h lecture and 1-h outpatient clinic (lecture); and 2-h outpatient clinic (no intervention). Before and at the end of rotation, diagnostic accuracy was estimated using 20 written clinical cases with photographs (10 novel cases presented in diagnostic training [training set], 10 cases with diagnoses not included in training [control set]).
RESULTS
There was a significant interaction effect of intervention×set×time. A post hoc analysis indicated that the students in the experimental group outperformed students in the other two groups only in the training set of the final tests; after completing the 2-week rotation, for the training set, the mean score was higher in the experimental group (7.5 ± 1.3) than in the lecture (5.7 ± 1.6) and no intervention (5.6 ± 1.3) groups, producing an effect size of 1.2 standard deviation (SD) and 1.5 SD, respectively.
CONCLUSION
Practicing written clinical cases with reflection and feedback is superior to a lecture-based approach and yields additional benefits to a dermatology elective, thereby enhancing medical students' ability to accurately diagnose skin lesions.

65,32384905,Foot exercise plus education versus wait and see for the treatment of plantar heel pain (FEET trial): a protocol for a feasibility study.,"BACKGROUND
Plantar heel pain (PHP) is present in a wide range of individuals and creates significant burden to quality of life and participation in physical activity. The high recurrence rates and persistence of PHP suggests current management options may not address all potentially modifiable factors associated with the condition. Reports of intrinsic foot muscle (IFM) atrophy in individuals with PHP, together with biomechanical evidence of their important contribution to optimal foot function, suggests that an intervention focused on IFM training may be beneficial in managing PHP. We will test the feasibility of a prospective, assessor-blinded, parallel-group, randomised clinical trial that compares foot exercise plus education to brief advice in individuals with PHP.
METHODS
Twenty participants with PHP will be randomly allocated to one of two groups for a 12-week intervention period: (i) foot exercise plus education, or (ii) brief advice. The foot exercise plus education group will attend eight sessions with a physiotherapist and receive detailed education on self-management strategies as well as a progressive exercise program for the IFMs. The brief advice group will attend one session with a physiotherapist and receive brief information about self-management strategies and reassurance. Outcome measures will be obtained at baseline and the primary end-point of 12 weeks. Primary outcomes will be the feasibility of conducting a full-scale randomised clinical trial (RCT), and the credibility and acceptability of the foot exercise plus education intervention. Secondary outcomes will explore treatment effects, which will consist of pain, physical function, physical activity level, pain self-efficacy, perceived treatment effect, magnetic resonance and ultrasound image measurement of IFM morphology, ultrasound imaging measurement of plantar fascia thickness, IFM motor performance, foot posture, foot mobility, ankle dorsiflexion range of motion, toe flexor and plantar flexor strength/endurance.
DISCUSSION
To reduce the burden of PHP on individuals and society, there is a need to establish effective treatments that are feasible and accepted by patients and health professionals. This trial will be the first to evaluate the feasibility of conducting a full-scale RCT, as well as the credibility, acceptability, and treatment effects, of education and foot exercise for PHP. The findings of this study will inform the development of a full-scale RCT.

66,32384914,"Propofol versus placebo (with rescue with ketamine) before less invasive surfactant administration: study protocol for a multicenter, double-blind, placebo controlled trial (PROLISA).","BACKGROUND
One major limitation for less invasive surfactant administration (LISA) is the difficulty in providing sedation before this procedure and the competitive risk of respiratory depression versus avoidance of intubation for most sedative or analgesic drugs used in this context. The objective of this study is to compare the need for mechanical ventilation within 72 h of life following premedication with propofol, versus placebo (rescue with ketamine), for the LISA procedure in preterm neonates born before 32 weeks gestational age (wGA).
METHODS
ProLISA is a phase III, non-inferiority, multicenter, double blind, randomized, placebo controlled trial designed according to the SPIRIT Statement. Neonates born before 32 wGA in 12 geographically dispersed Neonatal Intensive Care Units in France needing surfactant will be included from September 2019 to September 2022. A sample of 542 patients is needed. The neonate is randomized to the intervention (propofol) or control placebo group. Open label rescue treatment with ketamine is possible in both groups if FANS (Faceless Acute Neonatal pain Scale) is ≥6. To guide drug administration, FANS is scored before attempting laryngoscopy. Once an adequate score has been obtained, LISA is performed according to a standardized protocol. The primary outcome is the need for mechanical ventilation within 72 h of life. Secondary outcomes are tolerance of the procedure, pain evaluation, hemodynamic and neurologic parameters after the intervention, morbidities before discharge and neurodevelopmental assessment at 2 years of age.
DISCUSSION
This paper describes the first multicenter, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial on this topic and will provide crucial information to support implementation of the LISA procedure.

67,32384922,Logbooks alone are not enough: initial experience with implementing a logbook for medical students in a clinical internship in gynecology and obstetrics.,"BACKGROUND
Logbooks are being increasingly widely used as a means of improving medical education and further training. They will in all probability continue to be mandatory in the Practical Year (PJ) in Germany even after the upcoming amendment of the Medical Licensing Regulations (ÄAppO). However, there are different approaches to their design and use, and these are also currently undergoing considerable change. This study for the first time examines and discusses the influence of logbooks on students' evaluation of a gynecology internship.
METHODS
The study was based on a well-established two-part 1-week internship course, with initially unstructured morning classes on wards and duty areas, along with precisely planned afternoon classes with skills training by peer teachers and seminars supervised by duty-exempted physicians. The postgraduate lecturers were prepared for the introduction of the logbook in a special course, and the aim was to optimize morning classes by introducing learning objectives adapted to the respective locations. The effects over 38 weeks of practical training were examined in evaluations by 235 prospectively group-randomized students with and without logbooks (n = 166 and n = 66, respectively; three datasets were not evaluable).
RESULTS
In the cohort comparison, the logbook group responded significantly more positively toward the internship at the start of the course (P = 0.046). In the final evaluation, however, medical supervision during the entire internship was rated significantly more poorly (P = 0.007). The logbook cohort also considered that guidance based on learning objectives was significantly worse, as was the extent to which wards and duty areas were prepared for the students (P = 0.001 and P = 0.029).
CONCLUSIONS
Introducing a logbook to optimize clinical teaching in internships may raise expectations that cannot always be met. In addition to adapting the learning objectives to a general framework that is less favorable in comparison with the Practical Year, the least that is required appears to be simultaneous and continuous mentoring of the lecturers, as well as an increase in staffing resources.",2020,"In the final evaluation, however, medical supervision during the entire internship was rated significantly more poorly (P = 0.007).","['235 prospectively group-randomized students with and without logbooks (n\u2009=\u2009166 and n\u2009=\u200966, respectively; three datasets were not evaluable']",['skills training by peer teachers and seminars supervised by duty-exempted physicians'],[],"[{'cui': 'C0439745', 'cui_str': 'Grouped'}, {'cui': 'C0038492', 'cui_str': 'Student'}, {'cui': 'C5191361', 'cui_str': '166'}, {'cui': 'C0150098', 'cui_str': 'Data Set'}]","[{'cui': 'C0559197', 'cui_str': 'Skills training'}, {'cui': 'C0221457', 'cui_str': 'Teacher'}, {'cui': 'C0031831', 'cui_str': 'Physician'}]",[],,0.0224506,"In the final evaluation, however, medical supervision during the entire internship was rated significantly more poorly (P = 0.007).","[{'ForeName': 'Sebastian M', 'Initials': 'SM', 'LastName': 'Jud', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Gynecology, Erlangen University Hospital, Universitätsstrasse 21-23, 91054, Erlangen, Germany.

68,32390729,The Achilles Tendon Response to a Bout of Running is not affected by Triceps Surae Stretch Training in Runners.,"An acute bout of distance running decreases Achilles tendon CSA. The purpose of this study was to examine if three-week stretch training of the Achilles tendon alters the Achilles tendon thinning response to running. Thirty-three recreational runners were divided into a control group (n = 17) and an intervention group (n = 16). The intervention included a three-week soleus stretch (knee flexed) and gastrocnemius stretch (knee extended). Three gastrocnemius stretches and three soleus stretches were performed each day, six days per week. Stretches were held for 30 s per repetition for a total duration of 180 s per leg per day. Achilles tendon CSA and range of motion measures were completed pre and post-run before and after the three-week stretching intervention. The runs prior to and following the three-week stretch training intervention both resulted in a 6% decrease in Achilles tendon CSA (p < 0.0001). There was no interaction across time between control and intervention groups in CSA (p = 0.446). Only the intervention group experienced a significant increase in dorsiflexion range of motion following the stretch training (p = 0.009). We therefore conclude that even when an increased dorsiflexion range of motion occurs, three weeks of triceps surae stretching does not alter the response of the Achilles tendon CSA.",2020,Only the intervention group experienced a significant increase in dorsiflexion range of motion following the stretch training (p = 0.009).,"['Thirty-three recreational runners', 'Runners']",['distance running'],"['dorsiflexion range of motion', 'Achilles tendon CSA', 'Achilles tendon CSA and range of motion measures']","[{'cui': 'C0450358', 'cui_str': '33'}]","[{'cui': 'C0012751', 'cui_str': 'Distance'}, {'cui': 'C0035953', 'cui_str': 'Running'}]","[{'cui': 'C0080078', 'cui_str': 'Range of joint movement'}, {'cui': 'C0001074', 'cui_str': 'Structure of Achilles tendon'}, {'cui': 'C0010592', 'cui_str': 'Cyclosporine'}, {'cui': 'C0079809', 'cui_str': 'Measure'}]",,0.0210059,Only the intervention group experienced a significant increase in dorsiflexion range of motion following the stretch training (p = 0.009).,"[{'ForeName': 'Coulter D', 'Initials': 'CD', 'LastName': 'Neves', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Exercise Sciences, Brigham Young University, Provo, UT, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Joshua K', 'Initials': 'JK', 'LastName': 'Sponbeck', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Exercise Sciences, Brigham Young University, Provo, UT, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Katy Andrews', 'Initials': 'KA', 'LastName': 'Neves', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Exercise Sciences, Brigham Young University, Provo, UT, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Ulrike H', 'Initials': 'UH', 'LastName': 'Mitchell', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Exercise Sciences, Brigham Young University, Provo, UT, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Iain', 'Initials': 'I', 'LastName': 'Hunter', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Exercise Sciences, Brigham Young University, Provo, UT, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Aaron Wayne', 'Initials': 'AW', 'LastName': 'Johnson', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Exercise Sciences, Brigham Young University, Provo, UT, USA.'}]",Journal of sports science & medicine,[]
69,32390731,Occlusion Training During Specific Futsal Training Improves Aspects of Physiological and Physical Performance.,"This study aimed to examine the effects of lower limb blood flow restriction (BFR) performed during 3-a-side futsal game training on aerobic and anaerobic performance of futsal players. Twelve male futsal players were randomized into two groups (n = 6); both groups performed ten sessions of the 3-a-side game every other day in half of a futsal court; but one group trained under BFR conditions. Pneumatic cuffs used for the BFR group were inflated to 110% leg systolic blood pressure and increased by 10% after each two completed sessions. Before and after the training sessions subjects completed a series of tests to assess aerobic and anaerobic performances along with changes in blood lactate and anabolic and catabolic hormones. All aerobic and anaerobic performance variables improved in both group after training, however improvements in mean power (12.2%, p = 0.03), run time to fatigue (TTF), (7.1%, p = 0.02) and running economy (RE), (-22.7%, p = 0.01) were significantly greater in the BFR group. There were also significant increases in growth hormone (p = 0.01), testosterone to cortisol ratio at first session (p = 0.01) and rate of lactate removal (p = 0.01) at last session in the BFR group compared to the non-BFR group.

70,32390736,Acute Effects of Dynamic Stretching Followed by Vibration Foam Rolling on Sports Performance of Badminton Athletes.,"Dynamic stretching (DS) is performed to increase sports performance and is also used primarily for transiently increasing range of motion (ROM). Recently, vibration foam rolling (VFR) has emerged. Its underlying concept is that it combines foam rolling techniques with local vibration to improve ROM and muscular activation concurrently. This crossover study investigated the effects of DS or DS followed by VFR (DS + VFR) during warm-ups on flexibility, muscle stiffness, power, and agility of the lower limbs in badminton athletes. Forty badminton players performed DS or DS + VFR as warm-up exercises on two occasions in a randomized order. The target muscle groups were the bilateral shoulder, anterior and posterior thigh, posterior calf, and lower back. Main outcome measures: The primary outcome was knee range of motion (ROM), and the secondary outcomes were muscle stiffness, lower limb power (countermovement jump [CMJ]), and agility. Results indicated that the protocols improved performance. DS increased knee flexion ROM (% change = 1.92, ES = 0.3, p = 0.033), CMJ height (% change = 5.04, ES = 0.2, p = 0.004), and agility (% change = -4.97, ES = 0.4, p < 0.001) but increased quadriceps muscle stiffness (% change = 3.74, ES = 0.3, p = 0.001) and increased gastrocnemius muscle stiffness (% change = 10.39, ES = 0.5, p = 0.001). DS + VFR increased knee extension ROM (% change =2.87, ES = 0.4, p = 0.003), reduced quadriceps muscle stiffness (% change = -2.79, ES = 0.3, p = 0.017), CMJ height (% change = 2.41, ES = 0.1, p = 0.037), and agility (% change = -4.74, ES = 0.2, p < 0.001). DS + VFR was not significantly superior to DS, except for muscle stiffness reduction. Taken together, we suggest that practitioners consider DS as a first line of warm-up exercise to increase ROM, CMJ height, and agility in athletes. Moreover, the addition of VFR to DS results in a large reduction of muscle stiffness, potentially reducing the risk of sports injury. Athletes, coaches and athletic professionals may consider them when selecting effective warm-up practices to augment athletic performance.",2020,"DS + VFR increased knee extension ROM (% change =2.87, ES = 0.4, p = 0.003), reduced quadriceps muscle stiffness (% change = -2.79, ES = 0.3, p = 0.017), CMJ height (% change = 2.41, ES = 0.1, p = 0.037), and agility (% change = -4.74, ES = 0.2, p < 0.001).","['badminton athletes', 'Sports Performance of Badminton Athletes']","['Dynamic Stretching Followed by Vibration Foam Rolling', 'DS or DS followed by VFR (DS + VFR', 'DS + VFR', 'Dynamic stretching (DS']","['reduced quadriceps muscle stiffness', 'quadriceps muscle stiffness', 'performance', 'flexibility, muscle stiffness, power, and agility of the lower limbs', 'CMJ height', 'gastrocnemius muscle stiffness', 'DS or DS + VFR', 'knee extension ROM', 'DS increased knee flexion ROM', 'DS + VFR', 'knee range of motion (ROM), and the secondary outcomes were muscle stiffness, lower limb power (countermovement jump [CMJ]), and agility', 'ROM, CMJ height, and agility in athletes']","[{'cui': 'C0004678', 'cui_str': 'Badminton'}, {'cui': 'C0238703', 'cui_str': 'Athletes'}, {'cui': 'C0871966', 'cui_str': 'Sports Performance'}]","[{'cui': 'C0729333', 'cui_str': 'Dynamic'}, {'cui': 'C0332282', 'cui_str': 'Following'}, {'cui': 'C0455941', 'cui_str': 'Vibration - treatment'}, {'cui': 'C0991510', 'cui_str': 'Foam'}]","[{'cui': 'C0392756', 'cui_str': 'Reduced'}, {'cui': 'C0221170', 'cui_str': 'Muscular stiffness'}, {'cui': 'C0242808', 'cui_str': 'Flexibility'}, {'cui': 'C0023216', 'cui_str': 'Lower limb structure'}, {'cui': 'C0005890', 'cui_str': 'Body height measure'}, {'cui': 'C0242691', 'cui_str': 'Gastrocnemius muscle structure'}, {'cui': 'C0427008', 'cui_str': 'Stiffness'}, {'cui': 'C0729333', 'cui_str': 'Dynamic'}, {'cui': 'C0455941', 'cui_str': 'Vibration - treatment'}, {'cui': 'C0991510', 'cui_str': 'Foam'}, {'cui': 'C0022742', 'cui_str': 'Bone structure of knee'}, {'cui': 'C0231448', 'cui_str': 'Extension'}, {'cui': 'C0080078', 'cui_str': 'Range of joint movement'}, {'cui': 'C0205217', 'cui_str': 'Increased'}, {'cui': 'C0231452', 'cui_str': 'Flexion'}, {'cui': 'C0576094', 'cui_str': 'Knee joint - range of movement'}, {'cui': 'C0027627', 'cui_str': 'Metastasis'}, {'cui': 'C1274040', 'cui_str': 'Result'}, {'cui': 'C0221189', 'cui_str': 'Jumping'}, {'cui': 'C0238703', 'cui_str': 'Athletes'}]",,0.0380452,"DS + VFR increased knee extension ROM (% change =2.87, ES = 0.4, p = 0.003), reduced quadriceps muscle stiffness (% change = -2.79, ES = 0.3, p = 0.017), CMJ height (% change = 2.41, ES = 0.1, p = 0.037), and agility (% change = -4.74, ES = 0.2, p < 0.001).","[{'ForeName': 'Wei-Cheng', 'Initials': 'WC', 'LastName': 'Lin', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Sports Medicine, Kaohsiung Medical University, Kaohsiung 807, Taiwan.'}, {'ForeName': 'Chia-Lun', 'Initials': 'CL', 'LastName': 'Lee', 'Affiliation': 'Center for Physical and Health Education, National Sun Yat-sen University, Kaohsiung 804, Taiwan.'}, {'ForeName': 'Nai-Jen', 'Initials': 'NJ', 'LastName': 'Chang', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Sports Medicine, Kaohsiung Medical University, Kaohsiung 807, Taiwan.'}]",Journal of sports science & medicine,[]
71,32390905,Insensitivity to Success and Failure: An Experimental Study of Performance-Based Feedback in Depression.,"Objective
This experimental study set out to examine the effects of performance feedback (success or failure) on depressed emotions and self-serving attribution bias in inpatients suffering from major depressive disorder (MDD).
Methods
The study was based on a 2 × 2 experimental design in which 71 MDD patients and 59 healthy controls participated. Both groups (MDD and controls) were randomly assigned to two conditions: success or failure in the performance feedback. A section of Raven's Standard Progressive Matrices (SPM) was used as a bogus test of the participants' reasoning abilities, and the Core Depressive Factor of the Zung Self-Rating Depression Scale was used to measure changes in depressed emotion in the subjects following the performance feedback. Participants then rated the accuracy of the SPM as a measure of their reasoning capacity.
Results
The levels of depressed emotions in patients with MDD did not differ significantly under the two feedback conditions. In contrast, depressed emotion levels increased significantly in healthy individuals in response to failure feedback but did not change in response to success feedback. With regard to the ratings of SPM accuracy, there was no significant difference across the two feedback conditions for depressed patients; however, the accuracy ratings were higher in the success condition than in the failure condition for the controls.
Conclusion
Individuals with MDD exhibit blunted emotional reactivity when experiencing new positive or negative social stimuli, supporting the theory of Emotion Context Insensitivity. In addition, self-serving attribution bias does not occur in MDD, which is consistent with the theory of learned helplessness in depression.",2020,"With regard to the ratings of SPM accuracy, there was no significant difference across the two feedback conditions for depressed patients; however, the accuracy ratings were higher in the success condition than in the failure condition for the controls.

Students were divided into three experimental groups and one control group. The three experimental groups were provided with learning materials that explained the target vocabulary in three mediums, respectively: English-only, English-and-Chinese, and Chinese-only. Results showed that, after the intervention, receptive vocabulary size did not have any direct significant impact on vocabulary strategy development, whereas mediums of word explanation materials impacted students' application of vocabulary learning strategies (VLS) in different ways. Our findings showed that the English-only mediums significantly enhanced students' use of metacognition, cognition, and memorization strategies, but decreased social strategy development.

73,32392019,Financial Toxicity After Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome: A National Qualitative Cohort Study.,"OBJECTIVES
The financial burdens and subsequent related distress of medical care, referred to as financial toxicity, may limit access to beneficial treatments. However, financial toxicity after acute care is less described-and may be an important but underexplored mechanism preventing full recovery after critical illnesses such as acute respiratory distress syndrome. We sought to identify the mechanisms by which financial toxicity manifested in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome, protective factors against such toxicity, and the consequences of financial toxicity to survivors' lives following acute respiratory distress syndrome.
DESIGN
We conducted semistructured interviews following patients' hospitalization and during recovery as an ancillary study to a multicenter randomized clinical trial in acute respiratory distress syndrome. Patients were 9-16 months post randomization at the time of interview.
SETTING AND PARTICIPANTS
The Reevaluation Of Systemic Early Neuromuscular Blockade trial examined the use of early neuromuscular blockade in mechanically ventilated patients with moderate/severe acute respiratory distress syndrome. We recruited consecutive surviving patients who were English speaking, consented to follow-up, and were randomized between December 11, 2017, and May 4, 2018 (n = 79) from 29 U.S. sites.
MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS
We asked about patients' perceptions of financial burden(s) that they associated with their acute respiratory distress syndrome hospitalization. Forty-six of 79 eligible acute respiratory distress syndrome survivors (58%) participated (from 22 sites); their median age was 56 (interquartile range 47-62). Thirty-one of 46 reported at least one acute respiratory distress syndrome-related financial impact. Financial toxicity manifested via medical bills, changes in insurance coverage, and loss of employment income. Respondents reported not working prior to acute respiratory distress syndrome, using Medicaid or Medicare, or, conversely, generous work benefits as factors which may have limited financial burdens. Patients reported multiple consequences of acute respiratory distress syndrome-related financial toxicity, including harms to their mental and physical health, increased reliance on others, and specific material hardships.
CONCLUSIONS
Financial toxicity related to critical illness is common and may limit patients' emotional, physical, and social recovery after acute respiratory distress syndrome hospitalization for at least a year.",2020,"Patients reported multiple consequences of acute respiratory distress syndrome-related financial toxicity, including harms to their mental and physical health, increased reliance on others, and specific material hardships.

74,32365097,"A phase 2, double-blind, multicenter, randomized, placebo-controlled, dose‑ranging study of the efficacy and safety of Astodrimer Gel for the treatment of bacterial vaginosis.","BACKGROUND
Astodrimer Gel contains a novel dendrimer intended to treat and prevent bacterial vaginosis. We assessed the efficacy and safety of Astodrimer Gel for treatment of bacterial vaginosis.
METHODS
132 women with bacterial vaginosis were randomized 1:1:1:1 to Astodrimer 0.5% (N = 34), 1% (N = 33), or 3% (N = 32) Gel or hydroxyethyl cellulose placebo gel (N = 33) at a dose of 5 g vaginally once daily for 7 days at 6 centers in the United States. The primary endpoint was clinical cure (no bacterial vaginosis vaginal discharge and no more than one of 1) vaginal pH ≥4.5; 2) ≥20% clue cells; or 3) positive whiff test) at study days 21-30. Secondary analyses included clinical cure at study days 9-12, patient-reported symptoms, acceptability and adverse events.
RESULTS
The Astodrimer 1% Gel dose was superior to placebo for the primary and selected secondary efficacy measures in the modified intent-to-treat population. Clinical cure rates at day 9-12 were superior to placebo for the Astodrimer 3%, 1% and 0.5% Gel groups (62.5% [15/24; P = .002], 74.1% [20/27; P < .001], and 55.2% [16/29; P = .001], respectively, vs. 22.2% [6/27]). At day 21-30, clinical cure rates were 46.2% (12/26) for the 1% dose vs. 11.5% for placebo (3/26; P = .006). A greater proportion of patients reported absence of vaginal discharge and vaginal odor at day 9-12 and day 21-30 for Astodrimer Gel groups compared with placebo. Adverse events considered potentially treatment-related occurred in only 25% of Astodrimer Gel-treated patients vs. 22% of placebo patients.
CONCLUSION
Astodrimer Gel once daily for 7 days was superior to placebo for treatment of bacterial vaginosis and was well-tolerated. The 1% dose consistently showed the strongest efficacy across endpoints.

75,32365109,The influence of an induced negative emotional state on autobiographical memory coherence.,"Individuals who experience difficulty constructing coherent narratives about significant personal experiences generally report less psychological well-being and more depressive symptoms. It remains, however, unclear whether a negative emotional state, one of the core symptoms of depression, causes this impairment in autobiographical memory coherence. The current study aimed to examine the causal relation between mood and memory coherence by means of a mood induction paradigm. A group of 165 students were randomly allocated to one of three mood groups: negative, positive, and neutral. We hypothesized that memory coherence would decrease following a negative mood induction. In addition, working memory capacity was expected to mediate the association between mood and memory coherence. Contrary to predictions, memory coherence increased following a negative mood induction. This increase was likewise observed in the positive mood group, though memory coherence remained consistent in the neutral mood group. This effect of mood on memory coherence was solely observed in female participants and not in the small male subsample. Results provided no support for the hypothesis that working memory capacity functioned as an underlying mechanism.

76,32360392,A randomized controlled trial of transcranial direct-current stimulation and cognitive training in children with fetal alcohol spectrum disorder.,"BACKGROUND
This study was a randomized double-blind sham-controlled trial examining the effects of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) augmented cognitive training (CT) in children with Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorders (FASD). Prenatal alcohol exposure has profound detrimental effects on brain development and individuals with FASD commonly present with deficits in executive functions including attention and working memory. The most commonly studied treatment for executive deficits is CT, which involves repeated drilling of exercises targeting the impaired functions. As currently implemented, CT requires many hours and the observed effect sizes are moderate. Neuromodulation via tDCS can enhance brain plasticity and prior studies demonstrate that combining tDCS with CT improves efficacy and functional outcomes. TDCS-augmented CT has not yet been tested in FASD, a condition in which there are known abnormalities in neuroplasticity and few interventions.
METHODS
This study examined the feasibility and efficacy of this approach in 44 children with FASD. Participants were randomized to receive five sessions of CT with either active or sham tDCS targeting the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex, a region of the brain that is heavily involved in executive functioning.
RESULTS
The intervention was feasible and well-tolerated in children with FASD. The tDCS group showed nominally significant improvement in attention on a continuous performance test compared to sham (p = .043). Group differences were observed at the third, fourth and fifth treatment sessions. There was no effect of tDCS on working memory (p = .911). Further, we found no group differences on a trail making task (p = .659) or on the verbal fluency test (p = .826). In the active tDCS group, a significant correlation was observed between improvement in attention scores and decrease in parent-reported attention deficits (p = .010).
CONCLUSIONS
These results demonstrate that tDCS-augmented CT is well tolerated in children with FASD and potentially offers benefits over and above CT alone.",2020,The tDCS group showed nominally significant improvement in attention on a continuous performance test compared to sham (p=.043).,"['children with fetal alcohol spectrum disorder', 'children with Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorders (FASD', 'children with FASD', '44 children with FASD']","['CT with either active or sham tDCS', 'transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) augmented cognitive training (CT', 'transcranial direct-current stimulation and cognitive training', 'tDCS', 'tDCS-augmented CT', 'CT', 'TDCS-augmented CT']","['feasibility and efficacy', 'trail making task', 'attention scores and decrease in parent-reported attention deficits', 'attention on a continuous performance test']","[{'cui': 'C0008059', 'cui_str': 'Child'}, {'cui': 'C0015923', 'cui_str': 'Fetal alcohol syndrome'}]","[{'cui': 'C1868940', 'cui_str': 'Cognitive training'}, {'cui': 'C0205177', 'cui_str': 'Active'}, {'cui': 'C0073980', 'cui_str': 'salicylhydroxamic acid'}, {'cui': 'C3850024', 'cui_str': 'tDCS'}, {'cui': 'C0205217', 'cui_str': 'Increased'}]","[{'cui': 'C1280519', 'cui_str': 'Effectiveness'}, {'cui': 'C0385242', 'cui_str': 'Apo-2 Ligand'}, {'cui': 'C0004268', 'cui_str': 'Attention'}, {'cui': 'C0449820', 'cui_str': 'Score'}, {'cui': 'C0205216', 'cui_str': 'Decreased'}, {'cui': 'C0030551', 'cui_str': 'Parent'}, {'cui': 'C0684224', 'cui_str': 'Report'}, {'cui': 'C0041671', 'cui_str': 'Attention Deficit Disorder'}, {'cui': 'C0549178', 'cui_str': 'Continuous'}, {'cui': 'C0003647', 'cui_str': 'Aptitude Tests'}]",44.0,0.0938664,The tDCS group showed nominally significant improvement in attention on a continuous performance test compared to sham (p=.043).,"[{'ForeName': 'Elias', 'Initials': 'E', 'LastName': 'Boroda', 'Affiliation': 'University of Minnesota, Twin Cities, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Alyssa M', 'Initials': 'AM', 'LastName': 'Krueger', 'Affiliation': 'University of Minnesota, Twin Cities, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Priya', 'Initials': 'P', 'LastName': 'Bansal', 'Affiliation': 'University of Maryland, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Mariah J', 'Initials': 'MJ', 'LastName': 'Schumacher', 'Affiliation': 'University of Minnesota, Twin Cities, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Abhrajeet V', 'Initials': 'AV', 'LastName': 'Roy', 'Affiliation': 'University of Minnesota, Twin Cities, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Christopher J', 'Initials': 'CJ', 'LastName': 'Boys', 'Affiliation': 'University of Minnesota, Twin Cities, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Kelvin O', 'Initials': 'KO', 'LastName': 'Lim', 'Affiliation': 'University of Minnesota, Twin Cities, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Jeffrey R', 'Initials': 'JR', 'LastName': 'Wozniak', 'Affiliation': 'University of Minnesota, Twin Cities, USA.

77,32360399,Effect of different exercise training intensities on musculoskeletal and neuropathic pain in inactive individuals with type 2 diabetes - Preliminary randomised controlled trial.,"AIMS
People with type 2 diabetes (T2D) have a greater prevalence of musculoskeletal and neuropathic pain. This exploratory analysis investigated whether exercise of different intensities leads to changes in self-reported musculoskeletal pain or symptoms of diabetic neuropathy in inactive individuals with type 2 diabetes.
METHODS
Thirty-two inactive adults with T2D (59% male, mean age 58.7 ± 9.1yrs, median HbA 1c 7.8%) were randomised to usual care (CON), supervised combined aerobic and resistance moderate-intensity continuous training (C-MICT), or supervised combined high-intensity interval training (C-HIIT). At baseline and 8-weeks, musculoskeletal and neuropathic pain were evaluated using a modified Nordic Musculoskeletal Questionnaire and the Neuropathy Total Symptom Score-6 respectively. Quantitative sensory testing was used to determine thermal, mechanical and vibration detection thresholds, as well as pain pressure thresholds. Adverse events were recorded throughout the intervention.
RESULTS
Compared to CON, reduction in musculoskeletal pain intensity was significantly greater for C-HIIT (MD -5.4, 95% CI [-10.6 to -0.2], p = 0.04) and non-significantly greater for C-MICT (MD -5.9 [-12.4 to 0.7], p = 0.08). Changes in neuropathy symptoms were not different between C-HIIT and CON (MD 1.0 [-0.9 to 2.8], p = 0.31), or C-MICT and CON (MD 0.2 [-3.1 to 3.6], p = 0.89). No differences in sensory function were observed between groups. Similar rates of adverse events were seen in both exercise interventions (19 C-HIIT; 17 C-MICT), all but one of which were mild.
CONCLUSIONS

78,32369480,Effect of short-term prednisone on beta-cell function in subjects with type 2 diabetes mellitus and healthy subjects.,"OBJECTIVE
For those with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), impact of short-term high-dose glucocorticoid exposure on beta-cell function is unknown. This study aims to compare the impact on beta-cell function and insulin resistance of prednisone 40 mg between adults with newly diagnosed T2DM and healthy adults.
METHODS
Five adults with T2DM and five healthy adults, all between 18-50 years, were enrolled. T2DM diagnosis was less than one year prior, HbA1c<75 mmol/mol (9.0%), with metformin treatment only. Pre- and post-therapy testing included 75-g oral glucose tolerance, plasma glucose, C-peptide, and insulin. Intervention therapy was prednisone 40mg daily for 3 days.
RESULTS
Upon therapy completion, HOMA-IR did not increase or differ between groups. Percentile difference for HOMA-%B and insulinogenic index in those with T2DM was significantly lower statistically (50.4% and 69.2% respectively) compared to healthy subjects (19% and 32.2%).
CONCLUSIONS
Contrary to the assumption that insulin resistance is the main driver of glucocorticoid-induced hyperglycemia, results indicate that decreased beta-cell insulin secretion is the more likely cause in those with T2DM. This is evidenced by significant drops in C-peptide AUC and HOMA-%B and increased glucose AUC in T2DM group only. These results may be caused by increased beta-cell fragility along with reduced recovery ability after glucocorticoid exposure.

79,32372046,The Influence of Listening to Music on Adults with Left-behind Experience Revealed by EEG-based Connectivity.,"The human brain has a close relationship with music. Music-induced structural and functional brain changes have been demonstrated in the healthy adult. In the present study, adults with left-behind experience (ALB) were divided into two groups. The experimental group (ALB-E) took part in the music therapy experiment with three stages, including before listening to music (pre-stage), initially listening to music (mid-stage) and after listening to music (post-stage). The control group (ALB-C) did not participate in music therapy. Scalp resting-state EEGs of ALB were recorded during the three stages. We found no significant frequency change in the ALB-C group. In the ALB-E group, only the theta power spectrum was significantly different at all stages. The topographical distributions of the theta power spectrum represented change in trends from the frontal regions to the occipital regions. The result of Granger causal analysis (GCA), based on theta frequency, showed a stronger information flow from the middle frontal gyrus to the middle temporal gyrus (MFG → MTG) in the left hemisphere at the pre-stage compared to the post-stage. Additionally, the experimental group showed a weaker information flow from inferior gyrus to superior temporal gyrus (IFG → STG) in the right hemisphere at post-test stage compared to the ALB-C group.

80,32374787,Anodal transcranial direct current stimulation reduces collinear lateral inhibition in normal peripheral vision.,"Collinear flanking stimuli can reduce the detectability of a Gabor target presented in peripheral vision. This phenomenon is called collinear lateral inhibition and it may contribute to crowding in peripheral vision. Perceptual learning can reduce collinear lateral inhibition in peripheral vision, however intensive training is required. Our aim was to assess whether modulation of collinear lateral inhibition can be achieved within a short time-frame using a single 20-minute session of primary visual cortex anodal transcranial direct current stimulation (a-tDCS). Thirteen observers with normal vision performed a 2AFC contrast detection task with collinear flankers positioned at a distance of 2λ from the target (lateral inhibition) or 6λ (control condition). The stimuli were presented 6° to the left of a central cross and fixation was monitored with an infra-red eye tracker. Participants each completed two randomly sequenced, single-masked stimulation sessions; real anodal tDCS and sham tDCS. For the 2λ separation condition, a-tDCS induced a significant reduction in detection threshold (reduced lateral inhibition). Sham stimulation had no effect. No effects of a-tDCS were observed for the 6λ separation condition. This result lays the foundation for future work investigating whether a-tDCS may be useful as a visual rehabilitation tool for individuals with central vision loss who are reliant on peripheral vision.",2020,"For the 2λ separation condition, a-tDCS induced a significant reduction in detection threshold (reduced lateral inhibition).","['individuals with central vision loss who are reliant on peripheral vision', 'normal peripheral vision']","['single-masked stimulation sessions; real anodal tDCS and sham tDCS', 'Perceptual learning', 'Anodal transcranial direct current stimulation']",['detection threshold (reduced lateral inhibition'],"[{'cui': 'C0027361', 'cui_str': 'Person'}, {'cui': 'C0152191', 'cui_str': 'Central scotoma'}, {'cui': 'C0234628', 'cui_str': 'Peripheral vision'}, {'cui': 'C0278208', 'cui_str': 'Normal peripheral vision'}]","[{'cui': 'C0037179', 'cui_str': 'Single person'}, {'cui': 'C1292856', 'cui_str': 'Stimulation'}, {'cui': 'C3850024', 'cui_str': 'tDCS'}, {'cui': 'C0073980', 'cui_str': 'salicylhydroxamic acid'}, {'cui': 'C0013621', 'cui_str': 'Education'}]","[{'cui': 'C0206100', 'cui_str': 'Signal Detection (Psychology)'}, {'cui': 'C0234200', 'cui_str': 'Threshold perception'}, {'cui': 'C0392756', 'cui_str': 'Reduced'}, {'cui': 'C0205093', 'cui_str': 'Lateral'}, {'cui': 'C0021467', 'cui_str': 'Psychological Inhibition'}]",13.0,0.0643383,"For the 2λ separation condition, a-tDCS induced a significant reduction in detection threshold (reduced lateral inhibition).","[{'ForeName': 'Rajkumar Nallour', 'Initials': 'RN', 'LastName': 'Raveendran', 'Affiliation': 'Envision Research Institute, Wichita, Kansas, United States of America.'}, {'ForeName': 'Katelyn', 'Initials': 'K', 'LastName': 'Tsang', 'Affiliation': 'School of Optometry & Vision Science, University of Waterloo, Waterloo, Ontario, Canada.'}, {'ForeName': 'Dilraj', 'Initials': 'D', 'LastName': 'Tiwana', 'Affiliation': 'School of Optometry & Vision Science, University of Waterloo, Waterloo, Ontario, Canada.'}, {'ForeName': 'Amy', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Chow', 'Affiliation': 'School of Optometry & Vision Science, University of Waterloo, Waterloo, Ontario, Canada.'}, {'ForeName': 'Benjamin', 'Initials': 'B', 'LastName': 'Thompson', 'Affiliation': 'School of Optometry & Vision Science, University of Waterloo, Waterloo, Ontario, Canada.'}]",PloS one,['10.1371/journal.pone.0232276']
81,32375735,Primary surgery versus no surgery in synchronous metastatic breast cancer: patient-reported quality-of-life outcomes of the prospective randomized multicenter ABCSG-28 Posytive Trial.,"BACKGROUND
The ABCSG-28 trial compared primary surgery followed by systemic therapy versus primary systemic therapy without surgery in patients with de novo stage IV BC. The present report describes QoL results of this trial.
METHODS
Ninety patients with primary operable MBC were randomised to surgery of the primary tumor followed by systemic therapy or to primary systemic therapy without surgery. QoL analyses covering the results at baseline, 6,12,18 and 24 months follow up of 79 (88%) patients, was assessed with the EORTC QLQ-C30 and QLQ-BR23 questionnaires.
RESULTS
There were no statistically significant differences in any of the scales of the QLQ-C30 and QLQ-BR23 questionnaires between the two groups over the time. Baseline global health status and physical functioning were predictors for OS (patients with a higher score lived longer (p=0.0250, p=0.0225; p=0.0355, p=0.0355)). Global health status, social functioning scale, breast symptoms and future perspective were predictors for longer TTPd (p=0.0244; p=0.0140, p=0.020; p=0.0438, p=0.0123). Patients in both arms reported significant improvement on the emotional functioning scale. Cognitive functioning decreased over time in both groups. Younger women had clinically relevant better physical and sexual functioning scores (p=0.039 and 0.024).
CONCLUSION
Primary surgery does not improve nor alter QoL of patients with de novo stage IV BC. Global health status and physical functioning were predictors for OS and could be use as additional marker for prediction of OS and TTTd in patients with de novo stage IV BC.

Results of our previous study showed high objective response but short-term activity of apatinib in advanced osteosarcoma. We aimed to investigate the activity of apatinib in combination with camrelizumab in patients with inoperable high-grade osteosarcoma progressing after chemotherapy.
METHODS
This open-label, phase 2 trial was conducted at Peking University People's Hospital. We enrolled patients with advanced osteosarcoma progressed after chemotherapy. Patients received 500 mg apatinib orally once daily plus 200 mg camrelizumab by intravenous infusion every 2 weeks until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. The primary endpoint was progression-free survival (PFS) and clinical benefit rate at 6 months, which were based on RECIST V.1.1.
RESULTS
43 patients were enrolled between January 25 and September 4, 2018. With median follow-up time of 48.3 (Q1, Q3, 30.6, 66.6) weeks, 13 (30.23%, 95% CI 17.2%, 40.1%) of 43 patients were progression free at 6 months and the 6-month PFS rate was 50.9% (95% CI 34.6%, 65.0%). Until final follow-up, the objective response rate was 20.9% (9/43) and two patients with durable disease control were observed. Patients with programmed cell death 1 ligand-1 (PD-L1) tumor proportion score ≥5% and pulmonary metastases tended to have a longer PFS in comparison to the others (p=0.004 and 0.017, respectively). Toxic effects led to dose reductions, or interruptions, or both in 24 (55.8%) of 43 patients and permanent discontinuation in 4 (9.3%) patients. There were no treatment-related deaths.
CONCLUSIONS
Although the combination of apatinib and camrelizumab seemed to prolong PFS in comparison to single agent apatinib in treating advanced osteosarcoma, it did not reach the prespecified target of 6-month PFS of 60% or greater. Overexpression of PD-L1 and the presence of pulmonary metastases only were associated with longer PFS.

83,32383366,Effects of Lactobacillus pentosus in Children with Allergen-Sensitized Atopic Dermatitis.,"BACKGROUND
Recent studies have shown that oral administration of probiotics may improve the immune imbalance caused by dysbiosis of the gut microbiome in atopic dermatitis (AD). This study aimed to investigate the clinical and immunological effects of Lactobacillus pentosus in children with mild to moderate AD.
METHODS
Children aged 2-13 years with AD were randomized to receive either 1.0 × 10 10 colony-forming units of L. pentosus or placebo, daily, for 12 weeks. The clinical severity of AD and transepidermal water loss were evaluated. Blood eosinophil counts, serum total immunoglobulin E (IgE), and cytokine levels were measured. The diversity and composition of the gut microbiota were also analyzed.
RESULTS
Eighty-two children were recruited, and 41 were assigned to the probiotics intervention group. The mean scoring of atopic dermatitis (SCORAD) indices at baseline were 30.4 and 34.3 for the probiotics and placebo groups, respectively. At week 12, the mean indices were 23.6 and 23.1 for the probiotics and placebo groups, respectively. Clinical severity decreased significantly over time in both groups, with no significant difference between the two groups. In both groups, there were no significant differences in cytokine levels, microbial diversity, or the relative abundance of the gut microbiota at week 12 compared with the corresponding baseline values. The mean subjective scores of SCORAD indices after intervention for the probiotics group were significantly lower than those for the placebo group in IgE sensitized AD ( P = 0.019).
CONCLUSION
Our results show improved symptoms in the probiotics and placebo groups, and we could not find additional effects of L. pentosus in AD. However, the mean subjective scores of SCORAD indices for the probiotics group are significantly improved compared with those for the placebo group in allergen-sensitized AD.",2020,"In both groups, there were no significant differences in cytokine levels, microbial diversity, or the relative abundance of the gut microbiota at week 12 compared with the corresponding baseline values.","['Children aged 2-13 years with AD', 'Eighty-two children', 'Children with Allergen-Sensitized Atopic Dermatitis', 'children with mild to moderate AD']","['1.0 × 10 10 colony-forming units of L. pentosus or placebo', 'probiotics intervention', 'placebo']","['clinical severity of AD and transepidermal water loss', 'mean subjective scores of SCORAD indices', 'diversity and composition of the gut microbiota', 'Blood eosinophil counts, serum total immunoglobulin E (IgE), and cytokine levels', 'cytokine levels, microbial diversity, or the relative abundance of the gut microbiota', 'Clinical severity', 'mean scoring of atopic dermatitis (SCORAD) indices']","[{'cui': 'C0008059', 'cui_str': 'Child'}, {'cui': 'C0001779', 'cui_str': 'Age'}, {'cui': 'C0439234', 'cui_str': 'year'}, {'cui': 'C0011615', 'cui_str': 'Atopic dermatitis'}, {'cui': 'C3816958', 'cui_str': '80'}, {'cui': 'C0002092', 'cui_str': 'Allergen'}, {'cui': 'C1299392', 'cui_str': 'Mild to moderate'}]","[{'cui': 'C0439158', 'cui_str': 'colonies'}, {'cui': 'C0205431', 'cui_str': 'Formed'}, {'cui': 'C0439148', 'cui_str': 'Unit'}, {'cui': 'C0032042', 'cui_str': 'Sham Treatment'}, {'cui': 'C0525033', 'cui_str': 'Probiotic'}, {'cui': 'C0184661', 'cui_str': 'Procedure'}]","[{'cui': 'C0205210', 'cui_str': 'Clinical'}, {'cui': 'C0439793', 'cui_str': 'Severities'}, {'cui': 'C0011615', 'cui_str': 'Atopic dermatitis'}, {'cui': 'C0020311', 'cui_str': 'Hydrotherapy'}, {'cui': 'C0444504', 'cui_str': 'Mean'}, {'cui': 'C0439655', 'cui_str': 'Subjective'}, {'cui': 'C0449820', 'cui_str': 'Score'}, {'cui': 'C0600653', 'cui_str': 'Indexes'}, {'cui': 'C0486616', 'cui_str': 'Composition (property)'}, {'cui': 'C2985398', 'cui_str': 'Intestinal Microbiota'}, {'cui': 'C0200638', 'cui_str': 'Eosinophil count'}, {'cui': 'C0229671', 'cui_str': 'Serum'}, {'cui': 'C0428539', 'cui_str': 'Total immunoglobulin measurement'}, {'cui': 'C0079189', 'cui_str': 'Cytokine'}, {'cui': 'C0441889', 'cui_str': 'Levels'}, {'cui': 'C0080103', 'cui_str': 'Relative'}]",82.0,0.112825,"In both groups, there were no significant differences in cytokine levels, microbial diversity, or the relative abundance of the gut microbiota at week 12 compared with the corresponding baseline values.","[{'ForeName': 'So Hyun', 'Initials': 'SH', 'LastName': 'Ahn', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Pediatrics, Korea University College of Medicine, Seoul, Korea.'}, {'ForeName': 'Wonsuck', 'Initials': 'W', 'LastName': 'Yoon', 'Affiliation': 'Allergy Immunology Center, Korea University, Seoul, Korea.'}, {'ForeName': 'So Young', 'Initials': 'SY', 'LastName': 'Lee', 'Affiliation': 'Research Division of Food Functionality, Korea Food Research Institute, Wanju, Korea.'}, {'ForeName': 'Hee Soon', 'Initials': 'HS', 'LastName': 'Shin', 'Affiliation': 'Research Division of Food Functionality, Korea Food Research Institute, Wanju, Korea.'}, {'ForeName': 'Mi Young', 'Initials': 'MY', 'LastName': 'Lim', 'Affiliation': 'Research Division of Food Functionality, Korea Food Research Institute, Wanju, Korea.'}, {'ForeName': 'Young Do', 'Initials': 'YD', 'LastName': 'Nam', 'Affiliation': 'Research Division of Food Functionality, Korea Food Research Institute, Wanju, Korea.'}, {'ForeName': 'Young', 'Initials': 'Y', 'LastName': 'Yoo', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Pediatrics, Korea University College of Medicine, Seoul, Korea.'}]",Journal of Korean medical science,['10.3346/jkms.2020.35.e128']
84,32380954,Correlation and variation of cuff inflating volumes and pressures in different adult models of laryngeal mask: a prospective randomized trial.,"BACKGROUND
Hyperinflation of laryngeal mask cuffs may carry the risk of airway complications. The manufacturer recommends inflating cuff until the intracuff pressure reaches 60 cmH 2 O, or inflate with the volume of air to not exceed the maximum recommended volume. We prospectively assessed the correlation of cuff inflating volumes and pressures, and the appropriated the cuff inflating volumes to generate an intracuff pressure of 60 cmH 2 O in the adult laryngeal masks from different manufacturers.
METHODS
Two groups of 80 patients requiring laryngeal mask size 3 and 4 during general anesthesia were randomized into 4 subgroups for each size of the laryngeal mask: Soft Seal® (Portex®), AuraOnce™ (Ambu®), LMA-Classic™ (Teleflex®) and LMA-ProSeal™ (Teleflex®). After insertion, the cuff was inflated with 5-ml increments of air up to the maximum recommended volume. After each 5-ml intracuff pressure was measured, the volume of air that generated the intracuff pressure of 60 cmH 2 O was recorded.
RESULTS
Mean (SD) volume of air required to achieve the intracuff pressure of 60 cmH 2 O in Soft Seal®, AuraOnce™, LMA-Classic™, LMA-ProSeal™ laryngeal mask size 3 were 11.80(1.88), 9.20(1.88), 8.95(1.50) and 13.50(2.48) ml, respectively, and these volumes in laryngeal mask size 4 were 14.45(4.12), 12.55(1.85), 11.30(1.95) and 18.20(3.47) ml, respectively. The maximum recommended volume resulted in high intracuff pressures (> 60 cmH 2 O) in all laryngeal mask types and sizes studied.
CONCLUSION
Pressure-volume curves of adult laryngeal masks are all in sigmoidal shape. Cuff designs and materials can effect pressure and volume correlation. Approximately half of the maximum recommended volume is required to achieve the intracuff pressure of 60 cmH 2 O except LMA-ProSeal™ which required two-thirds of the maximum recommended volume.

85,32380972,"SAFE: an eHealth intervention for women experiencing intimate partner violence - study protocol for a randomized controlled trial, process evaluation and open feasibility study.","BACKGROUND
Intimate partner violence (IPV) affects almost one in three women worldwide. However, disclosing violence or seeking help is difficult for affected women. eHealth may represent an effective alternative to the standard support offers, which often require face-to-face interaction, because of easy accessibility and possibility of anonymous usage. In the Netherlands we are developing SAFE, an eHealth intervention for female victims of IPV, which will be evaluated in a randomized controlled trial and a process evaluation, followed by an open feasibility study to assess real-world user data.
METHODS/DESIGN
The randomized controlled trial is a two-arm parallel design comparing an intervention arm and a control group. The groups both have access to eHealth but differ in the offer of interactive features compared to static information. Both groups complete questionnaires at three or four time points (baseline, three months, six months, 12 months) with self-efficacy at 6 months as the primary outcome, measured with the General Self-Efficacy (GSE) scale. The process evaluation consists of quantitative data (from the website and from web evaluation questionnaires) and qualitative data (from interviews) on how the website was used and the users' experiences.
DISCUSSION
eHealth has the potential to reach a large number of women who experience IPV. The internet-based design can lower access barriers and encourage help-seeking behavior ultimately reducing the lag time between subjective awareness and protective action.

86,32383748,Effect of Zinc Supplementation vs Placebo on Mortality Risk and HIV Disease Progression Among HIV-Positive Adults With Heavy Alcohol Use: A Randomized Clinical Trial.,"Importance
Zinc supplementation can reduce alcohol-related microbial translocation and inflammation.
Objective
To assess whether zinc supplementation reduces markers of mortality and risk of cardiovascular disease, reduces levels of inflammation and microbial translocation, and slows HIV disease progression in people with heavy alcohol use who are living with HIV/AIDS.
Design, Setting, and Participants
This study is a double-blinded placebo-controlled randomized clinical trial of zinc supplementation among participants recruited from 2013 to 2015. Participants were recruited from HIV and addiction clinical and nonclinical care sites in St Petersburg, Russia. Participants were adults (aged 18-70 years) with documented HIV infection who were antiretroviral therapy-naive at baseline and had past 30-day heavy alcohol consumption. Data analysis was performed from February 2017 to February 2020.
Intervention
Pharmacy-grade zinc gluconate supplementation (15 mg for men and 12 mg for women, taken daily by mouth for 18 months) was compared with a placebo.
Main Outcomes and Measures
The primary outcome was mortality risk measured as a change in Veterans Aging Cohort Study (VACS) Index score between baseline and 18 months. The VACS Index scores range from 0 to 164, with higher scores indicating higher mortality risk. Secondary outcomes were change in CD4 cell count between baseline and 18 months, the assessment of cardiovascular disease risk (Reynolds Risk Score, which ranges from 0% to 100%, with higher scores indicating higher risk), and changes in inflammatory or microbial translocation biomarkers at 18 months. Adjusted linear regression analyses were performed.
Results
A total of 254 participants (184 men [72%]; mean [SD] age, 34 [6] years) were enrolled in the trial; 126 were randomized to receive zinc, and 128 were randomized to receive placebo. Participants had high CD4 cell counts (mean [SD], 521 [292] cells/mm3), and 188 (74%) reported heavy drinking in the past week. In the main analyses, zinc supplementation did not affect changes in the VACS Index score at 18 months (change for zinc, mean [SD], 0.49 [14.6]; median [interquartile range], 0.0 [-7.0 to 6.0]; change for placebo, mean [SD], 5.5 [17.2]; median [interquartile range], 6.0 [-6.0 to 14.0]; adjusted mean difference [AMD], -4.68; 95% CI, -9.62 to 0.25; P = .06) or any secondary outcomes, including change in CD4 cell count (AMD, 41.8 cells/mm3; 95% CI, -20.3 to 103.8 cells/mm3; P = .19), Reynolds Risk Score (AMD, -0.014; 95% CI, -0.167 to 0.139; P = .85), interleukin-6 level (AMD, -0.13 pg/mL; 95% CI, -0.38 to 0.11 pg/mL; P = .30), dimerized plasmin fragment D level (AMD, -0.21 μg/mL fibrinogen equivalent units; 95% CI, -0.48 to 0.07 μg/mL fibrinogen equivalent units; P = .14), soluble CD14 level (AMD, -38.01 ng/mL; 95% CI, -166.90 to 90.88 ng/mL; P = .56), intestinal fatty acid binding protein level (AMD, 0.08 pg/mL; 95% CI, -0.07 to 0.22 pg/mL; P = .32), and lipopolysaccharide binding protein level (AMD, -0.09 ng/mL; 95% CI, -0.23 to 0.06 ng/mL; P = .24). In the per-protocol analyses, zinc supplementation statistically significantly affected changes in the VACS Index score at 18 months (AMD, -7.49; 95% CI, -13.74 to -1.23; P = .02); however, the adherence rate to zinc supplementation was 51%.
Conclusions and Relevance
Zinc supplementation did not reduce mortality risk, CD4 cell counts, cardiovascular disease risk, and levels of inflammation or microbial translocation in people with heavy alcohol use who are living with HIV/AIDS. Zinc supplementation did not change the VACS Index score but may have been limited by low adherence.

87,32391156,Low-chloride- versus high-chloride-containing hypertonic solution for the treatment of subarachnoid hemorrhage-related complications: The ACETatE (A low ChloriE hyperTonic solution for brain Edema) randomized trial.,"Background
Recent reports have demonstrated that among patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) treated with hypertonic NaCl, resultant hyperchloremia has been associated with the development of acute kidney injury (AKI). We report a trial comparing the effect of two hypertonic solutions with different chloride contents on the resultant serum chloride concentrations in SAH patients, with a primary outcome aimed at limiting chloride elevation.
Methods
A low ChloridE hyperTonic solution for brain Edema (ACETatE) trial is a single-center, double-blinded, double-dummy, randomized pilot trial comparing bolus infusions of 23.4% NaCl and 16.4% NaCl/Na-acetate for the treatment of cerebral edema in patients with SAH. Randomization occurred when patients developed hyperchloremia (serum Cl - ≥ 109 mmol/L) and required hyperosmolar treatment.
Results
We enrolled 59 patients, of which 32 developed hyperchloremia and required hyperosmolar treatment. 15 patients were randomized to the 23.4% NaCl group, and 17 patients were randomized to the 16.4% NaCl/Na-acetate group. Although serum chloride levels increased similarly in both groups, the NaCl/Acetate group showed a significantly lower Cl - load at the end of the study period (978mEq vs. 2,464mEq, p < 0.01). Secondary outcome analysis revealed a reduced rate of AKI in the Na-acetate group (53.3% in the NaCl group vs. 11.8% in the Na-acetate group, p = 0.01). Both solutions had similar effects on ICP reduction, but NaCl/Acetate treatment had a more prominent effect on immediate post-infusion Na + concentrations (increase of 2.2 ± 2.8 vs. 1.4 ± 2.6, ( p < 0.01)). Proximal tubule renal biomarkers differed in concentration between the two groups.
Conclusions
Our pilot trial showed the feasibility and safety of replacing 23.4% NaCl infusions with 16.4% NaCl/Na-acetate infusions to treat cerebral edema in patients with SAH. The degree of hyperchloremia was similar in the two groups. 16.4% NaCl/Na-acetate infusions led to lower Cl - load and AKI rates than 23.4% NaCl infusions. Further multi-center studies are needed to corroborate these results.

88,32391158,Fear-avoidance beliefs are associated with exercise adherence: secondary analysis of a randomised controlled trial (RCT) among female healthcare workers with recurrent low back pain.,"Background
Exercise is recommended for the treatment and management of low back pain (LBP) and the prevention of chronicity. Exercise adherence has been only modest in intervention studies among people with musculoskeletal pain. Fear-avoidance beliefs (FABs) are known to affect exercise adherence. The purpose was twofold: to examine which bio-psycho-social factors contributed to exercise adherence during a 6-month neuromuscular exercise intervention among female healthcare workers with recurrent LBP, and to investigate how exercising affects FABs at 6 and 12 months' follow-up.
Methods
Some 219 healthcare workers aged 30-55 years with mild-to-moderate re-current non-specific LBP were originally allocated into: 1) exercise, 2) counselling, 3) combined exercise and counselling, and 4) control groups. In the present secondary analysis, groups 1 and 3 (exercise only and exercise+counselling) were merged to be exercisers and groups 2 and 4 were merged to be non-exercisers. Baseline variables of the exercise compliers (≥24 times over 24 weeks; n = 58) were compared to those of the non-compliers (< 1 time/week, 0-23 times; n = 52). The effects of the exercise programme on FABs were analysed by a generalised linear mixed model according to the intention-to-treat principle (exercisers; n = 110 vs non-exercisers; n = 109) at three measurement points (baseline, 6, and 12 months). A per-protocol analysis compared the more exercised to the less exercised and non-exercisers.
Results
A low education level ( p = 0.026), shift work ( p = 0.023), low aerobic (p = 0.048) and musculoskeletal ( p = 0.043) fitness, and high baseline physical activity-related FABs ( p = 0.019) were related to low exercise adherence. The exercise programme reduced levels of both physical activity- and work-related FABs, and there was a dose response: FABs reduced more in persons who exercised ≥24 times compared to those who exercised 0-23 times.
Conclusion
Healthcare workers who had lower education and fitness levels, worked shifts, and had high physical activity-related FABs had a lower adherence to the 6-month neuromuscular exercise programme. Exercising with good adherence reduced levels of FABs, which have been shown to be linked with prolonged LBP. Motivational strategies should be targeted at persons with low education and fitness levels and high FABs in order to achieve better exercise adherence.",2020,"The exercise programme reduced levels of both physical activity- and work-related FABs, and there was a dose response: FABs reduced more in persons who exercised ≥24 times compared to those who exercised 0-23 times.

89,32391167,"Body, Soul and Spirit, an adaptation of two evidence-based interventions to promote physical activity and healthy eating among adults in churches in Lagos Nigeria: a three-arm cluster randomized controlled pilot trial.","Background
Physical inactivity and unhealthy eating are two leading behavioral risk factors contributing to preventable non-communicable diseases (NCDs). Evidence-based interventions (EBI) using community-engaged approaches to address these risks abound in high-income countries. Comparatively, evidence of such interventions is sparse in low- and middle-income countries, where NCD mortality is greater. This paper describes the protocol for the development of the cultural adaptation and pilot testing of a combination of two EBI (i.e., Body and Soul and the Healthy Body Healthy Spirit), in church-based settings in Lagos, Nigeria. In addition, we describe the development of the inclusion of an additional component, i.e., faith-based text messages, into one of the treatment arms. Our objective is to assess the feasibility of developing and implementing the adapted interventions with the ultimate aim of developing a fully powered trial.
Methods
This pilot study will assess the design and implementation of a three-arm cluster-randomized pilot trial in 12 randomly selected Anglican churches (4 in each arm). First, we will design a cultural adaptation of the two EBI's to form a multifaceted combined intervention known as the Body Soul and Spirit . The second treatment arm, i.e., Body Soul and Spirit Plus , will retain all the components of Body Soul and Spirit with the inclusion of faith-based text messages using mobile phones. Participants in the control arm will receive information leaflets designed to increase physical activity and healthy food consumption. The outcome measures include participant recruitment and retention, program participation and satisfaction, and data collection completion rates. The outcomes for the proposed definitive trial will be the number of servings of fruit and vegetables and minutes of moderate to vigorous physical activity per day will be assessed at baseline, 3 and 6-month follow-up. Implementation outcomes will be assessed using qualitative and quantitative methods.
Discussion
The study will enhance the understanding of how best to design and implement behavioral interventions in church-based settings using community-based participatory approaches. It will also inform the development of a definitive randomized controlled trial.

90,32390133,Oral protein-based supplements versus placebo or no treatment for people with chronic kidney disease requiring dialysis.,"BACKGROUND
Malnutrition is common in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) on dialysis. Oral protein-based nutritional supplements are often provided to patients whose oral intake is otherwise insufficient to meet their energy and protein needs. Evidence for the effectiveness of oral protein-based nutritional supplements in this population is limited.
OBJECTIVES
The aims of this review were to determine the benefits and harms of using oral protein-based nutritional supplements to improve the nutritional state of patients with CKD requiring dialysis.
SEARCH METHODS
We searched the Cochrane Kidney and Transplant Register of Studies up to 12 December 2019 through contact with the Information Specialist using search terms relevant to this review. Studies in the Register are identified through searches of CENTRAL, MEDLINE, and EMBASE, conference proceedings, the International Clinical Trials Register (ICTRP) Search Portal and ClinicalTrials.gov.
SELECTION CRITERIA
Randomised controlled trials (RCTs) of patients with CKD requiring dialysis that compared oral protein-based nutritional supplements to no oral protein-based nutritional supplements or placebo.
DATA COLLECTION AND ANALYSIS
Two authors independently assessed studies for eligibility, risk of bias, and extracted data from individual studies. Summary estimates of effect were obtained using a random-effects model, and results were expressed as risk ratios and their 95% confidence intervals (CI) for dichotomous outcomes, and mean difference and 95% CI for continuous outcomes.
MAIN RESULTS
Twenty-two studies (1278 participants) were included in this review. All participants were adults on maintenance dialysis of whom 79% were on haemodialysis (HD) and 21% peritoneal dialysis. The follow-up period ranged from one to 12 months. The majority of studies were at unclear risk of selection, performance, and reporting bias. The detection bias was high for self-reported outcomes. Oral protein-based nutritional supplements probably lead to a higher mean change in serum albumin compared to the control group (16 studies, 790 participants: MD 0.19 g/dL, 95% CI 0.05 to 0.33; moderate certainty evidence), although there was considerable heterogeneity in the combined analysis (I 2 = 84%). The increase was more evident in HD participants (10 studies, 526 participants: MD 0.28 g/dL, 95% CI 0.11 to 0.46; P = 0.001 for overall effect) and malnourished participants (8 studies, 405 participants: MD 0.31 g/dL, 95% CI 0.10 to 0.52, P = 0.003 for overall effect). Oral protein-based nutritional supplements also probably leads to a higher mean serum albumin at the end of the intervention (14 studies, 715 participants: MD 0.14 g/dL, 95% CI 0 to 0.27; moderate certainty evidence), however heterogeneity was again high (I 2 = 80%). Again the increase was more evident in HD participants (9 studies, 498 participants: MD 0.21 g/dL, 95% CI 0.03 to 0.38; P = 0.02 for overall effect) and malnourished participants (7 studies, 377 participants: MD 0.25 g/dL, 95% CI 0.02 to 0.47; P = 0.03 for overall effect). Compared to placebo or no supplement, low certainty evidence showed oral protein-based nutritional supplements may result in a higher serum prealbumin (4 studies, 225 participants: MD 2.81 mg/dL, 95% CI 2.19 to 3.43), and mid-arm muscle circumference (4 studies, 216 participants: MD 1.33 cm, 95% CI 0.24 to 2.43) at the end of the intervention. Compared to placebo or no supplement, oral protein-based nutritional supplements may make little or no difference to weight (8 studies, 365 participants: MD 2.83 kg, 95% CI -0.43 to 6.09; low certainty evidence), body mass index (9 studies, 368 participants: MD -0.04 kg/m 2 , 95% CI -0.74 to 0.66; moderate certainty evidence) and lean mass (5 studies, 189 participants: MD 1.27 kg, 95% CI -1.61 to 4.51; low certainty evidence). Due to very low quality of evidence, it is uncertain whether oral protein-based nutritional supplements affect triceps skinfold thickness, mid-arm circumference, C-reactive protein, Interleukin 6, serum potassium, or serum phosphate. There may be little or no difference in the risk of developing gastrointestinal intolerance between participants who received oral protein-based nutritional supplements compared with placebo or no supplement (6 studies, 426 participants: RR 2.81, 95% CI 0.58 to 13.65, low certainty evidence). It was not possible to draw conclusions about cost or quality of life, and deaths were not reported as a study outcome in any of the included studies.
AUTHORS' CONCLUSIONS
Overall, it is likely that oral protein-based nutritional supplements increase both mean change in serum albumin and serum albumin at end of intervention and may improve serum prealbumin and mid-arm muscle circumference. The improvement in serum albumin was more evident in haemodialysis and malnourished participants. However, it remains uncertain whether these results translate to improvement in nutritional status and clinically relevant outcomes such as death. Large well-designed RCTs in this population are required.",2020,"The increase was more evident in HD participants (10 studies, 526 participants: MD 0.28 g/dL, 95% CI 0.11 to 0.46; P = 0.001 for overall effect) and malnourished participants (8 studies, 405 participants: MD 0.31 g/dL, 95% CI 0.10 to 0.52, P = 0.003 for overall effect).","['patients with CKD requiring dialysis', 'Twenty-two studies (1278 participants', 'patients with CKD requiring dialysis that compared', '365 participants: MD 2.83 kg, 95% CI -0.43 to 6.09; low certainty evidence), body mass index (9 studies, 368 participants', 'people with chronic kidney disease requiring dialysis', 'All participants were adults on maintenance dialysis of whom 79% were on haemodialysis (HD) and 21% peritoneal dialysis', 'patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) on dialysis']","['Oral protein-based nutritional supplements', 'placebo or no supplement, oral protein-based nutritional supplements', 'Oral protein-based supplements versus placebo', 'oral protein-based nutritional supplements', 'oral protein-based nutritional supplements to no oral protein-based nutritional supplements or placebo', 'placebo']","['serum albumin', 'moderate certainty evidence) and lean mass', 'serum prealbumin and mid-arm muscle circumference', 'cost or quality of life, and deaths', 'mean serum albumin', 'serum albumin and serum albumin', 'risk of developing gastrointestinal intolerance']","[{'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patient'}, {'cui': 'C1561643', 'cui_str': 'Chronic kidney disease'}, {'cui': 'C0011945', 'cui_str': 'Dialysis'}, {'cui': 'C4284772', 'cui_str': '22'}, {'cui': 'C0008972', 'cui_str': 'Clinical Study'}, {'cui': 'C0009667', 'cui_str': 'Confidence Intervals'}, {'cui': 'C0205251', 'cui_str': 'Low'}, {'cui': 'C0205423', 'cui_str': 'Certain'}, {'cui': 'C0005893', 'cui_str': 'Body mass index'}, {'cui': 'C0027361', 'cui_str': 'Person'}, {'cui': 'C0001675', 'cui_str': 'Adult'}, {'cui': 'C0024501', 'cui_str': 'Maintenance'}, {'cui': 'C0019004', 'cui_str': 'Hemodialysis'}, {'cui': 'C0031139', 'cui_str': 'Peritoneal dialysis'}]","[{'cui': 'C0226896', 'cui_str': 'Oral cavity structure'}, {'cui': 'C0033684', 'cui_str': 'Proteins'}, {'cui': 'C0002055', 'cui_str': 'Alkali'}, {'cui': 'C0242295', 'cui_str': 'Nutrient supplementation'}, {'cui': 'C0032042', 'cui_str': 'Sham Treatment'}]","[{'cui': 'C0036773', 'cui_str': 'Serum Albumin'}, {'cui': 'C0205081', 'cui_str': 'Moderate'}, {'cui': 'C0205423', 'cui_str': 'Certain'}, {'cui': 'C0577559', 'cui_str': 'Mass of body structure'}, {'cui': 'C0229671', 'cui_str': 'Serum'}, {'cui': 'C0032923', 'cui_str': 'Prealbumin'}, {'cui': 'C0562347', 'cui_str': 'Mid arm muscle circumference'}, {'cui': 'C0010186', 'cui_str': 'Cost'}, {'cui': 'C0518214', 'cui_str': 'Quality of life satisfaction'}, {'cui': 'C0011065', 'cui_str': 'Death'}, {'cui': 'C0444504', 'cui_str': 'Mean'}, {'cui': 'C0035647', 'cui_str': 'Risk of'}, {'cui': 'C0231199', 'cui_str': 'Intolerance'}]",,0.257445,"The increase was more evident in HD participants (10 studies, 526 participants: MD 0.28 g/dL, 95% CI 0.11 to 0.46; P = 0.001 for overall effect) and malnourished participants (8 studies, 405 participants: MD 0.31 g/dL, 95% CI 0.10 to 0.52, P = 0.003 for overall effect).","[{'ForeName': 'Jia Yee', 'Initials': 'JY', 'LastName': 'Mah', 'Affiliation': 'Integrated Renal Service, Eastern Health, Box Hill, Australia.'}, {'ForeName': 'Suet Wan', 'Initials': 'SW', 'LastName': 'Choy', 'Affiliation': 'Integrated Renal Service, Eastern Health, Box Hill, Australia.'}, {'ForeName': 'Matthew A', 'Initials': 'MA', 'LastName': 'Roberts', 'Affiliation': 'Integrated Renal Service, Eastern Health, Box Hill, Australia.'}, {'ForeName': 'Anne Marie', 'Initials': 'AM', 'LastName': 'Desai', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Dietetics/Renal, Eastern Health, Box Hill, Australia.'}, {'ForeName': 'Melissa', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Corken', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Dietetics/Renal, Eastern Health, Box Hill, Australia.'}, {'ForeName': 'Stella M', 'Initials': 'SM', 'LastName': 'Gwini', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Epidemiology and Preventive Medicine, Monash University, Clayton, Australia.'}, {'ForeName': 'Lawrence P', 'Initials': 'LP', 'LastName': 'McMahon', 'Affiliation': 'Integrated Renal Service, Eastern Health, Box Hill, Australia.'}]",The Cochrane database of systematic reviews,['10.1002/14651858.CD012616.pub2']
91,32402160,Atezolizumab plus Bevacizumab in Unresectable Hepatocellular Carcinoma.,"BACKGROUND
The combination of atezolizumab and bevacizumab showed encouraging antitumor activity and safety in a phase 1b trial involving patients with unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma.
METHODS
In a global, open-label, phase 3 trial, patients with unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma who had not previously received systemic treatment were randomly assigned in a 2:1 ratio to receive either atezolizumab plus bevacizumab or sorafenib until unacceptable toxic effects occurred or there was a loss of clinical benefit. The coprimary end points were overall survival and progression-free survival in the intention-to-treat population, as assessed at an independent review facility according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors, version 1.1 (RECIST 1.1).
RESULTS
The intention-to-treat population included 336 patients in the atezolizumab-bevacizumab group and 165 patients in the sorafenib group. At the time of the primary analysis (August 29, 2019), the hazard ratio for death with atezolizumab-bevacizumab as compared with sorafenib was 0.58 (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.42 to 0.79; P<0.001). Overall survival at 12 months was 67.2% (95% CI, 61.3 to 73.1) with atezolizumab-bevacizumab and 54.6% (95% CI, 45.2 to 64.0) with sorafenib. Median progression-free survival was 6.8 months (95% CI, 5.7 to 8.3) and 4.3 months (95% CI, 4.0 to 5.6) in the respective groups (hazard ratio for disease progression or death, 0.59; 95% CI, 0.47 to 0.76; P<0.001). Grade 3 or 4 adverse events occurred in 56.5% of 329 patients who received at least one dose of atezolizumab-bevacizumab and in 55.1% of 156 patients who received at least one dose of sorafenib. Grade 3 or 4 hypertension occurred in 15.2% of patients in the atezolizumab-bevacizumab group; however, other high-grade toxic effects were infrequent.
CONCLUSIONS
In patients with unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma, atezolizumab combined with bevacizumab resulted in better overall and progression-free survival outcomes than sorafenib. (Funded by F.

92,32402261,The Unified Protocol for Transdiagnostic Treatment of Emotional Disorders in Adolescents (UP-A) Adapted as a School-Based Anxiety and Depression Prevention Program: An Initial Cluster Randomized Wait-List-Controlled Trial.,"Anxiety and depression are common debilitating conditions that show high comorbidity rates in adolescence. The Unified Protocol for Transdiagnostic Treatment of Emotional Disorders in Adolescents (UP-A; Ehrenreich-May et al., 2018) is one of the few existing resources aimed at applying transdiagnostic treatment principles across the core dysfunctions implicated in the development of both anxiety and depression using a single protocol. This is the first known controlled study to examine the efficacy of the UP-A adapted as a nine-session universal preventive intervention program delivered in a school setting. A total of 151 students (mean age: 15.05) participated in this randomized wait-list-controlled trial conducted in Madrid, Spain. An unexpected decline in anxiety and depression levels from pre- to posttreatment and follow-up was found in both groups (p = .009, d = -0.22), and overall differences between conditions did not reach significance. Exploratory analyses of baseline emotional symptom severity as a potential predictor trended toward a significantly greater decrease in symptoms of depression for those with greater baseline emotional symptoms in the UP-A group compared to the wait-list-control group. Future trials with larger samples are justified to estimate the effect of the UP-A adapted as a selective prevention program for anxiety and depression.",2020,"An unexpected decline in anxiety and depression levels from pre- to posttreatment and follow-up was found in both groups (p = .009, d = -0.22), and overall differences between conditions did not reach significance.","['Emotional Disorders in Adolescents (UP-A) Adapted as a School-Based Anxiety and Depression Prevention Program', '151 students (mean age: 15.05) participated in this randomized wait-list-controlled trial conducted in Madrid, Spain']",[],"['symptoms of depression', 'anxiety and depression levels']","[{'cui': 'C0233459', 'cui_str': 'Emotional disorder'}, {'cui': 'C0205653', 'cui_str': 'Adolescent'}, {'cui': 'C0036375', 'cui_str': 'School'}, {'cui': 'C0002055', 'cui_str': 'Alkali'}, {'cui': 'C0003467', 'cui_str': 'Anxiety'}, {'cui': 'C0011570', 'cui_str': 'Depression'}, {'cui': 'C0199176', 'cui_str': 'Preventive procedure'}, {'cui': 'C0018106', 'cui_str': 'Government Programs'}, {'cui': 'C0038492', 'cui_str': 'Student'}, {'cui': 'C0444504', 'cui_str': 'Mean'}, {'cui': 'C0001779', 'cui_str': 'Age'}, {'cui': 'C0043010', 'cui_str': 'Waiting Lists'}, {'cui': 'C0009932', 'cui_str': 'Control Groups'}, {'cui': 'C0008976', 'cui_str': 'Clinical trial'}, {'cui': 'C0004927', 'cui_str': 'Behavior finding'}, {'cui': 'C0037747', 'cui_str': 'Spain'}]",[],"[{'cui': 'C0086132', 'cui_str': 'Symptoms of depression'}, {'cui': 'C0003467', 'cui_str': 'Anxiety'}, {'cui': 'C1319226', 'cui_str': 'Level of depression'}]",151.0,0.0310334,"An unexpected decline in anxiety and depression levels from pre- to posttreatment and follow-up was found in both groups (p = .009, d = -0.22), and overall differences between conditions did not reach significance.","[{'ForeName': 'Julia', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'García-Escalera', 'Affiliation': 'Universidad Nacional de Educación a Distancia.'}, {'ForeName': 'Rosa M', 'Initials': 'RM', 'LastName': 'Valiente', 'Affiliation': 'Universidad Nacional de Educación a Distancia.

93,32393732,"Longer term follow-up of the randomized phase III trial SWOG S0777: bortezomib, lenalidomide and dexamethasone vs. lenalidomide and dexamethasone in patients (Pts) with previously untreated multiple myeloma without an intent for immediate autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT).","SWOG S0777, a randomized phase III trial, compared bortezomib, lenalidomide and dexamethasone (VRd) with lenalidomide and dexamethasone (Rd). This updated analysis includes 460 patients evaluable for survival endpoints: 225 eligible and analyzable patients were randomized to Rd and 235 to VRd. The 6-month induction was six 28-day cycles of Rd and eight 21-day cycles of VRd followed by Rd maintenance for all patients. Median follow up is 84 months. Median PFS is 41 months for VRd and 29 months for Rd: stratified hazard ratio (96% Wald Confidence Interval) was 0.742 (0.594, 0.928) and one-sided stratified log-rank P-value 0.003. Median OS for VRd is still not reached with median OS for Rd being 69 months: stratified hazard ratio (96% Wald Confidence Interval) was 0.709 (0.543, 0.926) and stratified two-sided P-value was 0.0114.

94,32393741,Randomized resonant metamaterials for single-sensor identification of elastic vibrations.,"Vibrations carry a wealth of useful physical information in various fields. Identifying the multi-source vibration information generally requires a large number of sensors and complex hardware. Compressive sensing has been shown to be able to bypass the traditional sensing requirements by encoding spatial physical fields, but how to encode vibration information remains unexplored. Here we propose a randomized resonant metamaterial with randomly coupled local resonators for single-sensor compressed identification of elastic vibrations. The disordered effective masses of local resonators lead to highly uncorrelated vibration transmissions, and the spatial vibration information can thus be physically encoded. We demonstrate that the spatial vibration information can be reconstructed via a compressive sensing framework, and this metamaterial can be reconfigured while maintaining desirable performance. This randomized resonant metamaterial presents a new perspective for single-sensor vibration sensing via vibration transmission encoding, and potentially offers an approach to simpler sensing devices for many other physical information.",2020,"This randomized resonant metamaterial presents a new perspective for single-sensor vibration sensing via vibration transmission encoding, and potentially offers an approach to simpler sensing devices for many other physical information.",[],[],[],[],[],[],,0.0256581,"This randomized resonant metamaterial presents a new perspective for single-sensor vibration sensing via vibration transmission encoding, and potentially offers an approach to simpler sensing devices for many other physical information.","[{'ForeName': 'Tianxi', 'Initials': 'T', 'LastName': 'Jiang', 'Affiliation': ""State Key Laboratory of Mechanical System and Vibration, Shanghai Jiao Tong University, 200240, Shanghai, People's Republic of China.""}, {'ForeName': 'Chong', 'Initials': 'C', 'LastName': 'Li', 'Affiliation': ""State Key Laboratory of Mechanical System and Vibration, Shanghai Jiao Tong University, 200240, Shanghai, People's Republic of China.""}, {'ForeName': 'Qingbo', 'Initials': 'Q', 'LastName': 'He', 'Affiliation': ""State Key Laboratory of Mechanical System and Vibration, Shanghai Jiao Tong University, 200240, Shanghai, People's Republic of China. qbhe@sjtu.edu.cn.""}, {'ForeName': 'Zhi-Ke', 'Initials': 'ZK', 'LastName': 'Peng', 'Affiliation': ""State Key Laboratory of Mechanical System and Vibration, Shanghai Jiao Tong University, 200240, Shanghai, People's Republic of China.""}]",Nature communications,['10.1038/s41467-020-15950-1']
95,32393793,Persistent cannabis use as an independent risk factor for violent behaviors in patients with schizophrenia.,"Although recent studies have shown a moderately strong association between cannabis use and violence among people with severe mental disorders, the direction of this association has not been investigated prospectively in a population with schizophrenia. Therefore, this study aims to determine, using cross-lag models, whether a temporal relationship between cumulative cannabis use and violence exists in a population with schizophrenia. The authors reported findings covering an 18-month period from a randomized, double-blind clinical trial of antipsychotic medications for schizophrenia treatment. Among the 1460 patients enrolled in the trial, 965 were followed longitudinally. Although persistent cannabis use predicted subsequent violence, violence did not predict cannabis use. The relationship was therefore unidirectional and persisted when controlling for stimulants and alcohol use. Finally, a significant body of evidence suggests a link between persistent cannabis use and violence among people with mental illnesses. Studies to further investigate the mechanisms underlying this association should be conducted.",2020,"Although persistent cannabis use predicted subsequent violence, violence did not predict cannabis use.","['people with severe mental disorders', '1460 patients enrolled in the trial, 965 were followed longitudinally', 'population with schizophrenia', 'people with mental illnesses', 'patients with schizophrenia']",['antipsychotic medications'],[],"[{'cui': 'C0027361', 'cui_str': 'Person'}, {'cui': 'C4046029', 'cui_str': 'Mental Disorders, Severe'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patient'}, {'cui': 'C0008976', 'cui_str': 'Clinical trial'}, {'cui': 'C0231290', 'cui_str': 'Status post'}, {'cui': 'C0032659', 'cui_str': 'Population'}, {'cui': 'C0036341', 'cui_str': 'Schizophrenia'}, {'cui': 'C0004936', 'cui_str': 'Mental disorder'}]","[{'cui': 'C0040615', 'cui_str': 'Antipsychotic agent'}, {'cui': 'C0013227', 'cui_str': 'Pharmaceutical / biologic product'}]",[],1460.0,0.267235,"Although persistent cannabis use predicted subsequent violence, violence did not predict cannabis use.","[{'ForeName': 'Mélissa', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Beaudoin', 'Affiliation': ""Centre de recherche de l'Institut universitaire en santé mentale de Montréal, Montreal, QC, Canada.

97,32361223,Comparison of programmed intermittent epidural bolus and continuous epidural infusion for post-operative analgesia after major abdominal surgery: A randomized controlled trial.,"STUDY OBJECTIVE
Few studies have compared continuous epidural infusion (CEI) against programmed intermittent epidural bolus (PIEB) epidural analgesia after major abdominal surgery. It has not been established whether the modality of epidural medication administration affects postoperative pain and other patient outcomes. The goal of this study was to compare the efficacy of PIEB against CEI in postoperative pain management after a broad range of surgeries with abdominal incisions, all managed in the context of an established enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) pathway.
DESIGN
Prospective, randomized, controlled trial.
SETTING
Postoperative acute care.
PATIENTS
120 patients scheduled for major surgery involving abdominal incisions with planned postoperative epidural analgesia were enrolled as study participants.
INTERVENTIONS
All subjects received a standardized epidural solution containing ropivacaine 0.0625% and fentanyl 2 μg/ml. The CEI group received this solution as a continuous infusion, while the PIEB group received this solution as programmed intermittent boluses.
MEASUREMENTS
The primary study outcome was the total local anesthetic used over the first 24 h post-operatively. Secondary outcomes included pain severity, pain interference, total opioid consumption, patient satisfaction, and adverse effects at 24, 48, and 72 h postoperatively.
MAIN RESULTS
There was no difference in the primary outcome of total amount of local anesthetic administered in the first 24-hour postoperative period (PIEB: 123 mg [Interquartile Range (IQR): 114-136]; CEI: 126 mg [IQR: 120-134]). There were also no differences in average pain severity, total opioid consumption, patient satisfaction, number of PCEA requests and incidence of adverse events at 24, 48, and 72 h postoperatively.
CONCLUSIONS
Our study suggests that within the context of an established ERAS program, PIEB and CEI modes of epidural analgesia can be equally efficacious and safe in providing postoperative analgesia after major abdominal surgery.",2020,There was no difference in the primary outcome of total amount of local anesthetic administered in the first 24-hour postoperative period (PIEB:,"['post-operative analgesia after major abdominal surgery', '120 patients scheduled for major surgery involving abdominal incisions with planned postoperative epidural analgesia were enrolled as study participants']","['PIEB against CEI', 'standardized epidural solution containing ropivacaine', 'continuous epidural infusion', 'CEI']","['total amount of local anesthetic administered in the first 24-hour postoperative period (PIEB', 'total local anesthetic used over the first 24\xa0h post-operatively', 'average pain severity, total opioid consumption, patient satisfaction, number of PCEA requests and incidence of adverse events', 'pain severity, pain interference, total opioid consumption, patient satisfaction, and adverse effects']","[{'cui': 'C0853389', 'cui_str': 'Postoperative analgesia'}, {'cui': 'C0205082', 'cui_str': 'Severe'}, {'cui': 'C0198482', 'cui_str': 'Operation on abdominal region'}, {'cui': 'C4319550', 'cui_str': '120'}, {'cui': 'C0030703', 'cui_str': 'Patient Schedules'}, {'cui': 'C0038895', 'cui_str': 'operative procedures'}, {'cui': 'C1314939', 'cui_str': 'Involvement'}, {'cui': 'C0198488', 'cui_str': 'Abdomen incision'}, {'cui': 'C0270724', 'cui_str': 'Infantile neuroaxonal dystrophy'}, {'cui': 'C0032790', 'cui_str': 'Postoperative period'}, {'cui': 'C0002769', 'cui_str': 'Epidural analgesia'}, {'cui': 'C0008972', 'cui_str': 'Clinical Study'}]","[{'cui': 'C0018106', 'cui_str': 'Government Programs'}, {'cui': 'C0205267', 'cui_str': 'Intermittent'}, {'cui': 'C0228134', 'cui_str': 'Structure of epidural space of spine'}, {'cui': 'C0549178', 'cui_str': 'Continuous'}, {'cui': 'C0574032', 'cui_str': 'Infusion'}, {'cui': 'C0037633', 'cui_str': 'Solution'}, {'cui': 'C0332256', 'cui_str': 'Containing'}, {'cui': 'C0073571', 'cui_str': 'ropivacaine'}]","[{'cui': 'C0439810', 'cui_str': 'Total'}, {'cui': 'C0002921', 'cui_str': 'Local anesthesia'}, {'cui': 'C1533734', 'cui_str': 'Administration'}, {'cui': 'C0439584', 'cui_str': '24 hours'}, {'cui': 'C0032790', 'cui_str': 'Postoperative period'}, {'cui': 'C0018106', 'cui_str': 'Government Programs'}, {'cui': 'C0205267', 'cui_str': 'Intermittent'}, {'cui': 'C0228134', 'cui_str': 'Structure of epidural space of spine'}, {'cui': 'C0687676', 'cui_str': 'After values'}, {'cui': 'C0030193', 'cui_str': 'Pain'}, {'cui': 'C0439793', 'cui_str': 'Severities'}, {'cui': 'C0002772', 'cui_str': 'OPIOIDS'}, {'cui': 'C0009830', 'cui_str': 'Consumption'}, {'cui': 'C0030702', 'cui_str': 'Client satisfaction'}, {'cui': 'C0237753', 'cui_str': 'Number'}, {'cui': 'C1301707', 'cui_str': 'Patient controlled epidural analgesia'}, {'cui': 'C1272683', 'cui_str': 'Requested'}, {'cui': 'C0021149', 'cui_str': 'Incidence'}, {'cui': 'C0877248', 'cui_str': 'Adverse event'}, {'cui': 'C0521102', 'cui_str': 'Interferes with'}, {'cui': 'C0001688', 'cui_str': 'adverse effects'}]",120.0,0.371242,There was no difference in the primary outcome of total amount of local anesthetic administered in the first 24-hour postoperative period (PIEB:,"[{'ForeName': 'Po-Yi Paul', 'Initials': 'PP', 'LastName': 'Su', 'Affiliation': 'University of California San Francisco, United States of America.

98,32360692,Acute and residual mood and cognitive performance of young adults following smoked cannabis.,"OBJECTIVES
To examine acute and residual mood and cognitive performance in young adult regular cannabis users following smoked cannabis.
METHODS
Ninety-one healthy young adults completed this double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-groups study. Participants were randomized to receive active (12.5% THC) or placebo cannabis with a 2:1 allocation ratio, and mood [Profile of Mood States (POMS)] and cognitive performance [Hopkins Verbal Learning Test - Revised (HVLT-R), Digit Symbol Substitution Test (DSST), Continuous Performance Test (CPT), grooved pegboard (GPB)] were assessed before and 1, 24, and 48 (h) after smoking cannabis ad libitum. High and Low THC groups were based on blood THC concentrations.
RESULTS
One hour after smoking cannabis, compared to Placebo, in both the High and Low THC groups, there were increases in POMS Arousal and Positive Mood, and in the High THC group only, increases in Confusion, Friendliness, and Elation, and a decrease in Fatigue. Increases in Friendliness and Elation in the High THC group remained significant for 24 h. The only significant acute effect of cannabis on cognition was a decrease in the percent of words retained in the HVLT-R in the High THC group compared to Placebo (mean difference = 15.8%, 95% CI = 3.6-28.0%, p = 0.006). Unexpectedly, compared to Placebo, both the High and Low THC groups improved in DSST performance at 48 h (p ≤ 0.016).
CONCLUSIONS

99,32372294,Pharmacokinetics of Ambroxol Sustained Release (Mucosolvan ® Retard) Compared with Other Formulations in Healthy Volunteers.,"INTRODUCTION
Ambroxol is used in the treatment of acute and chronic respiratory conditions characterized by abnormal mucus secretion and impaired mucus transport and is available in a variety of formulations. This study aimed to compare the steady-state (SS) pharmacokinetic characteristics of extended-release (ER) 75-mg retard capsules with two immediate-release (IR) formulations (60-mg effervescent tablets and 30-mg tablets) over a 24-h period.
METHODS
An open-label, randomized, three-period, six-sequence crossover study was conducted in healthy volunteers aged 18-45 years who had a normal body mass index. The test (ER 75-mg retard capsule once daily) and reference treatments (half of IR 60-mg effervescent tablet twice daily or 30-mg IR tablet twice daily) were administered on days 1-5 of each treatment period. Meals were standardized and concomitant therapy was prohibited. Blood samples for pharmacokinetic assessment were collected on day 5 (SS) of each treatment period. The co-primary endpoints were exposure (AUC SS 0-24 ) and maximum plasma level (C max SS ).
RESULTS
Twenty-four participants received ambroxol (male n = 13, 54.2%; mean ± standard deviation [SD] age 25.0 ± 6.4 years) and 23 completed the study. ER retard capsules provided similar AUC SS 0-24 compared to IR tablets (geometric means ratio [GMR] 110.7%; 90% confidence interval [CI] 99.8%, 122.7%) and effervescent tablets (GMR 106.9%; 90% CI 100.3%, 114.0%). ER retard capsules provided similar C max SS compared to IR tablets (GMR 84.7%, 90% CI 77.0%, 93.3%), and lower C max SS compared to effervescent tablets (GMR 80.9%, 90% CI 73.9%, 88.6%). Time to C max SS (t max SS ) was longer with ER retard capsules (6.0 h) than with IR tablets (2.0 h) or effervescent tablets (1.0 h).
CONCLUSIONS
ER ambroxol 75-mg retard capsules given once daily showed a similar pharmacokinetic profile to IR ambroxol formulations and therefore can be used instead of these in the treatment of respiratory conditions. CLINICALTRIALS.

100,32378975,Effect of neuromuscular electrical stimulation on skeletal muscle size and function in patients with breast cancer receiving chemotherapy.,"Exercise has numerous benefits for patients with cancer, but implementation is challenging because of practical and logistical hurdles. This study examined whether neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) can serve as a surrogate for classical exercise by eliciting an exercise training response in skeletal muscle of women diagnosed with breast cancer undergoing chemotherapy. Patients (n=22) with histologically-confirmed, stage I, II or III breast cancer scheduled to receive neoadjuvant or adjuvant chemotherapy were randomized to 8 weeks of bilateral neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES; 5 days/week) to their quadriceps muscles or control. Biopsy of the vastus lateralis was performed at baseline and after 8 weeks of intervention to assess muscle fiber size, contractility and mitochondrial content. Seventeen patients (8 control/9 NMES) completed the trial and were included in analyses. NMES promoted muscle fiber hypertrophy (P<0.001), particularly in fast-twitch, myosin heavy chain (MHC) IIA fibers (P<0.05), and tended to induce fiber type shifts in MHC II fibers. The effects of NMES on single muscle fiber contractility were modest and it was unable to prevent declines in function in MHC IIA fibers. NMES did not alter intermyofibrillar mitochondrial content/structure, but was associated with reductions in subsarcolemmal mitochondria. Our results demonstrate that NMES induces muscle fiber hypertrophy and fiber type shifts in MHC II fibers, but had minimal effects on fiber contractility and promoted reductions in subsarcolemmal mitochondria.

101,32375661,The effect of digital reminiscence therapy on people with dementia: a pilot randomized controlled trial.,"BACKGROUND
Reminiscence therapy (RT) can improve various dysfunctions in people with dementia (PWD), but it may not be a cost-effective intervention. Digital RT allows multiple users to participate in a therapy simultaneously. Moreover, digital RT offers convenience, such as for uploading personal materials and presenting individual triggers of personal memories. This pilot study aimed to evaluate the effect of digital RT through a comparison with conventional RT and to develop a strategy for designing larger RCTs.
METHODS
An Android application and digital content were developed for digital RT. Overall, 49 PWD enrolled in nine daycare centers in Korea met the inclusion criteria. Eight sessions of digital RT in an intervention group (n = 25) and storytelling in a control group (n = 24) with no digital materials were performed over 4 weeks from February to June 2019. Cognition, depression, behavioral and psychological symptoms of dementia (BPSD), and engagement were measured as the primary outcomes to evaluate the effect of digital RT. All outcomes except for engagement were evaluated at baseline before the intervention (T0), post-intervention (T1), and 4 weeks after the intervention (T2). Engagement was measured at the first and last intervention sessions. Differences in cognition, depression and BPSD between groups and across time points (T0, T1, and T2) were analyzed by repeated measures ANOVA. Differences in engagement between the groups and time points (the first and last sessions) were analyzed by independent t-tests. This study adhered to the CONSORT guidelines.
RESULTS
Depression (F = 7.62, p = .001, partial η 2 = .17) was significantly decreased at T1 and T2, and engagement (t = - 2.71, p = .011) was significantly increased at the last session in the digital RT group compared to the control group. However, cognition (F = 0.13, p = .821) and BPSD (F = 0.67, p = .485) were not significantly different between groups and time points.
CONCLUSIONS
Digital RT proved an innovative approach to manage PWD and will thus help PWD achieve a better mood and have more opportunities to engage in social interactions.

102,32381105,Educational strategy for the development of skills in exchange transfusion: a randomized clinical trial protocol.,"BACKGROUND
Exchange transfusion is a highly complex procedure that requires high levels of expertise. Trainee paediatricians do not have adequate training in exchange transfusion because opportunities to perform this procedure in practice are scarce. This protocol seeks to compare two educational interventions for exchange transfusion that allow students to develop competencies to perform the technique in an appropriate and safe way.
METHODS/DESIGN
This is a randomized parallel single-blind clinical trial with allocation by simple randomization to the educational intervention (simulation or a digital didactic environment). Students from the paediatric specialization who volunteer to participate will be included. A practical evaluation of the procedure will be performed through a simulated scenario using a standardized clinical case. The main outcome is defined as the result of evaluation using the Objective Structured Clinical Examination; superior performance will be defined when the percentage is greater than or equal to 85%, and non-superior performance will be defined when the result is less than 84%. The chi-square independence test or the Fisher exact test will be used to evaluate the effect of the interventions. Multivariate analysis will be performed using a non-conditional logistic regression model. Stata 15® software will be used.
DISCUSSION
Exchange transfusion is a procedure that requires expertise to achieve adequate outcomes. The inclusion of new educational strategies, such as simulation and digital didactic environments, is seen as a training option that can improve performance in clinical skills, reduce adverse events and increase the level of trust.

103,32381110,"Opposing needling for analgesia and rehabilitation after unilateral total knee arthroplasty: a randomized, sham-controlled trial protocol.","BACKGROUND
This randomized controlled clinical trial aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of opposing needling in patients undergoing unilateral total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Opposing needling is one of the special needling methods used in acupuncture and moxibustion therapy. It involves needling acupoints on the contralateral side for pain management. Although, opposing needling is used for pain management in clinics, evidence to support its effectiveness as an analgesic after total knee arthroplasty is scant. We designed a randomized controlled clinical trial to evaluate efficacy and safety of opposing electroacupuncture (EA) in alleviating pain associated with unilateral total knee arthroplasty.
METHODS/DESIGN
This is a protocol for a randomized controlled patient- and assessor-blinded trial with three parallel arms (A, opposing EA; B, operated side EA; C, sham EA). Yinlingquan (SP9), Yanglingquan (GB34), Futu (ST32), and Zusanli (ST36) acupoints are selected for all three groups. In group A, the healthy side will be treated with EA, while the operated side will be administered sham EA. In group B, the operated side will be treated with EA while on the healthy side sham EA will be used. For group C, sham EA will be used on both sides. All patients in the three groups will receive treatment once a day for 3 days. The post-operative pain measured using a visual analogue scale score (including pain while resting and being active) and the additional dose of the patient-controlled analgesic pump after operation will be recorded as the primary outcomes. Secondary outcomes such as knee function and swelling, range of motion (including active and passive range of motion), post-operative anxiety, and acupuncture tolerance will also be assessed.
DISCUSSION
Opposing needling is a potential non-pharmacological treatment for relieving pain and improving functional rehabilitation after TKA, during which patients receive acupuncture on the healthy side rather than on the operated side. This sham controlled clinical trial, designed to evaluate efficacy and safety of opposing needling for patients after TKA, will provide evidence for pain management and functional rehabilitation after unilateral TKA.

However, the role of maintenance therapy with an anti-EGFR monoclonal antibody has not been established. Methods: Eligible CRC patients were assigned to maintenance therapy with cetuximab (Cet; Cet group) or Bev (Bev group). PFS, the duration of maintenance therapy, and safety were analyzed. Cox multivariate regression analyses were performed to determine independent prognostic factors. Results: A total of 143 eligible patients were assigned to the Cet ( n = 79) or Bev ( n = 64) groups. In the Cet group, all patients had KRAS wild-type. The baseline characteristics were well-balanced between the two groups, except for a higher percentage of patients with a left-sided primary tumor in the Cet group than in the Bev group (86.1 vs. 62.5%, P < 0.0001). The median PFS was not significantly different between the Cet group and the Bev group: 5.9 months (95% CI 2.30-9.50) vs. 7.0 months (95% CI 3.69-10.31) (HR 1.17, 95% CI 0.77-1.79, P = 0.45). The median duration of maintenance therapy in the Cet group was shorter than that in the Bev group: 4.0 months (95% CI 1.94-5.99) vs. 4.8 months (95% CI 2.68-6.98) (HR 0.90, 95% CI 0.61-1.33; P = 0.59). The subgroup analyses showed that the median PFS for the first maintenance therapy and the second maintenance therapy were 3.2 months (95% CI 1.69-4.78) and 5.2 months (95% CI 1.58-8.83), respectively (HR 0.89, 95% CI 0.44-1.81; P = 0.75). Conclusions: This study suggests that maintenance therapy with Cet or Bev can be considered an appropriate option following induction chemotherapy for selected patients with advanced CRC.

106,32391304,Effects of a Participatory School-Based Intervention on Students' Health-Related Knowledge and Understanding.,"Introduction: The development of knowledge and understanding in relation to movement and health is a basic requirement to facilitate lifelong engagement in physical activity with its accompanying possible health benefits. To train teachers in applying adequate strategies, implementation studies have often shown little acceptance of traditional top-down approaches. Thus, the purpose of the Health.edu project was to develop, implement and evaluate effective and feasible measures addressing students' health-related knowledge and understanding (HKU) in physical education (PE) via a participatory approach. Materials and Methods: For evaluation, a controlled pre-post-test study with 233 students from eight different secondary schools in Germany was carried out. Four schools (with two PE teachers at each school) comprised the intervention group and they participated in a 1-year participatory planning process to conceptualize and implement evidence-based PE lessons addressing students' HKU. Control schools carried out their regular PE lessons. Evaluation followed a mixed-methods research design, assessing program implementation via written documentary technique as well as program effectiveness using a standardized questionnaire. Results: Results show a significant intervention effect on students' HKU with a medium effect size. However, due to the participatory process, there were considerable differences between the intervention schools that were involved. Student's HKU improved most in schools where program implementation corresponded to relevant principles of fostering HKU. Discussion: The present study purposefully dispensed with any structured intervention programs for PE teachers to follow. The results show the potential effects of this participatory approach to strengthen student's HKU. However, the participatory planning does not always work in the intended manner, emphasizing that numerous contextual factors influence the implementation process.",2020,Results show a significant intervention effect on students' HKU with a medium effect size.,"['Four schools (with two PE teachers at each school', '233 students from eight different secondary schools in Germany was carried out', ""Students' Health-Related Knowledge and Understanding""]","[""1-year participatory planning process to conceptualize and implement evidence-based PE lessons addressing students' HKU"", 'Participatory School-Based Intervention']",[],"[{'cui': 'C0036375', 'cui_str': 'School'}, {'cui': 'C0221457', 'cui_str': 'Teacher'}, {'cui': 'C0038492', 'cui_str': 'Student'}, {'cui': 'C0036530', 'cui_str': 'Secondary school'}, {'cui': 'C0017480', 'cui_str': 'Germany'}, {'cui': 'C0206243', 'cui_str': 'Carrying'}, {'cui': 'C0018684', 'cui_str': 'Health'}, {'cui': 'C0376554', 'cui_str': 'Knowledge'}, {'cui': 'C0162340', 'cui_str': 'Understanding'}]","[{'cui': 'C0439234', 'cui_str': 'year'}, {'cui': 'C0032074', 'cui_str': 'Cognitive function: planning'}, {'cui': 'C1522240', 'cui_str': 'Process'}, {'cui': 'C4520547', 'cui_str': 'Implemented'}, {'cui': 'C0002055', 'cui_str': 'Alkali'}, {'cui': 'C0376649', 'cui_str': 'Addresses'}, {'cui': 'C0038492', 'cui_str': 'Student'}, {'cui': 'C0036375', 'cui_str': 'School'}, {'cui': 'C0184661', 'cui_str': 'Procedure'}]",[],233.0,0.0189003,Results show a significant intervention effect on students' HKU with a medium effect size.,"[{'ForeName': 'Helmut', 'Initials': 'H', 'LastName': 'Strobl', 'Affiliation': 'Institute of Sport Science, University of Bayreuth, Bayreuth, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Katharina', 'Initials': 'K', 'LastName': 'Ptack', 'Affiliation': 'Institute of Sport Science, University of Bayreuth, Bayreuth, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Clemens', 'Initials': 'C', 'LastName': 'Töpfer', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Sport Science and Sport, Friedrich-Alexander-University Erlangen-Nürnberg (FAU), Erlangen, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Ralf', 'Initials': 'R', 'LastName': 'Sygusch', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Sport Science and Sport, Friedrich-Alexander-University Erlangen-Nürnberg (FAU), Erlangen, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Susanne', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Tittlbach', 'Affiliation': 'Institute of Sport Science, University of Bayreuth, Bayreuth, Germany.'}]",Frontiers in public health,['10.3389/fpubh.2020.00122']
107,32391374,An Acute Reduction in Habitual Protein Intake Attenuates Post Exercise Anabolism and May Bias Oxidation-Derived Protein Requirements in Resistance Trained Men.,"Protein recommendations for resistance-trained athletes are generally lower than their habitual intakes. Excess protein consumption increases the capacity to oxidize amino acids, which can attenuate post-exercise anabolism and may impact protein requirements determined by stable isotope techniques predicated on amino acid tracer oxidation. We aimed to determine the impact of an acute (5d) reduction in dietary protein intake on post-exercise anabolism in high habitual consumers using the indicator amino acid oxidation (IAAO) technique. Resistance trained men [ n = 5; 25 ± 7 y; 73.0 ± 5.7 kg; 9.9 ± 2.9% body fat; 2.69 ± 0.38 g·kg -1 ·d -1 habitual protein intake) consumed a high (H; 2.2 g·kg -1 ·d -1 ) and moderate (M; 1.2 g·kg -1 ·d -1 ) protein diet while training every other day. During the High protein phase, participants consumed a 2d controlled diet prior to determining whole body phenylalanine turnover, net balance (NB), and 13 CO 2 excretion (F 13 CO 2 ) after exercise via oral [ 13 C]phenylalanine. During the Moderate phase, participants consumed 2.2 g protein·kg -1 ·d -1 for 2d prior to consuming 1.2 g protein·kg -1 ·d -1 for 5d. Phenylalanine metabolism was measured on days 1, 3, and 5 (M1, M3, and M5, respectively) of the moderate intake. F 13 CO 2 , the primary outcome for IAAO, was ~72 and ~55% greater on the 1st day (M1, P < 0.05) and the third day of the moderate protein diet (M3, P = 0.07), respectively, compared to the High protein trial. Compared to the High protein trial, NB was ~25% lower on the 1st day (M1, P < 0.01) and 15% lower on the third day of the moderate protein diet (M3, P = 0.09). High habitual protein consumption may bias protein requirements determined by traditional IAAO methods that use only a 2d pre-trial controlled diet.

108,32391524,Improving the implementation and sustainment of evidence-based practices in community mental health organizations: a study protocol for a matched-pair cluster randomized pilot study of the Collaborative Organizational Approach to Selecting and Tailoring Implementation Strategies (COAST-IS).,"Background
Implementing and sustaining evidence-based programs with fidelity may require multiple implementation strategies tailored to address multi-level, context-specific barriers and facilitators. Ideally, selecting and tailoring implementation strategies should be guided by theory, evidence, and input from relevant stakeholders; however, methods to guide the selection and tailoring of strategies are not well-developed. There is a need for more rigorous methods for assessing and prioritizing implementation determinants (barriers and facilitators) and linking implementation strategies to determinants. The Collaborative Organizational Approach to Selecting and Tailoring Implementation Strategies (COAST-IS) is an intervention designed to increase the effectiveness of evidence-based practice implementation and sustainment. COAST-IS will enable organizational leaders and clinicians to use Intervention Mapping to select and tailor implementation strategies to address their site-specific needs. Intervention Mapping is a multi-step process that incorporates theory, evidence, and stakeholder perspectives to ensure that implementation strategies effectively address key determinants of change.
Methods
COAST-IS will be piloted with community mental health organizations that are working to address the needs of children and youth who experience trauma-related emotional or behavioral difficulties by engaging in a learning collaborative to implement an evidence-based psychosocial intervention (trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy). Organizations will be matched and then randomized to participate in the learning collaborative only (control) or to receive additional support through COAST-IS. The primary aims of this study are to (1) assess the acceptability, appropriateness, feasibility, and perceived utility of COAST-IS; (2) evaluate the organizational stakeholders' fidelity to the core elements of COAST-IS; and (3) demonstrate the feasibility of testing COAST-IS in a larger effectiveness trial.
Discussion
COAST-IS is a systematic method that integrates theory, evidence, and stakeholder perspectives to improve the effectiveness and precision of implementation strategies. If effective, COAST-IS has the potential to improve the implementation and sustainment of a wide range of evidence-based practices in mental health and other sectors.

It is the leading genetic cause of death among infants. In SMA, low levels of survival of motor neuron (SMN) protein lead to motor neuron death and muscle atrophy as the SMN protein is critical to motor neuron survival. SMA is caused by mutations in, or deletion of, the SMN1 gene. A second SMN gene, SMN2, produces only low levels of functional SMN protein due to alternative splicing which excludes exon 7 from most transcripts, generating truncated, rapidly degraded SMN protein. Patients with SMA rely on limited expression of functional SMN full-length protein from the SMN2 gene, but insufficient levels are generated. RG7800 is an oral, selective SMN2 splicing modifier designed to modulate alternative splicing of SMN2 to increase the levels of functional SMN protein. In two trials, oral administration of RG7800 increased in blood full-length SMN2 mRNA expression in healthy adults and SMN protein levels in SMA patients by up to two-fold, which is expected to provide clinical benefit.",2019,"In two trials, oral administration of RG7800 increased in blood full-length SMN2 mRNA expression in healthy adults and SMN protein levels in SMA patients by up to two-fold, which is expected to provide clinical benefit.","['Patients with SMA', 'healthy adults and patients with spinal muscular atrophy', 'healthy adults']",['RG7800'],"['full length survival of motor neuron 2 mRNA and survival of motor neuron protein', 'blood full-length SMN2 mRNA expression']","[{'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patient'}, {'cui': 'C0026847', 'cui_str': 'Spinal muscular atrophy'}, {'cui': 'C0686750', 'cui_str': 'Well adult'}]",[],"[{'cui': 'C1444754', 'cui_str': 'Length'}, {'cui': 'C0038952', 'cui_str': 'Survival'}, {'cui': 'C0026609', 'cui_str': 'Motor neuron'}, {'cui': 'C0035696', 'cui_str': 'Messenger RNA'}, {'cui': 'C0033684', 'cui_str': 'Proteins'}, {'cui': 'C0005767', 'cui_str': 'Blood'}, {'cui': 'C0015457', 'cui_str': 'Facial expression'}]",,0.0192204,"In two trials, oral administration of RG7800 increased in blood full-length SMN2 mRNA expression in healthy adults and SMN protein levels in SMA patients by up to two-fold, which is expected to provide clinical benefit.","[{'ForeName': 'Heidemarie', 'Initials': 'H', 'LastName': 'Kletzl', 'Affiliation': 'Roche Innovation Center, Hoffmann-La Roche Ltd., Grenzacherstrasse 124, CH-4070 Basel, Switzerland.

111,32395474,The effect of RAS blockers on the clinical characteristics of COVID-19 patients with hypertension.,"Background
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), caused by a novel coronavirus (designated as SARS-CoV-2) has become a pandemic worldwide. Based on the current reports, hypertension may be associated with increased risk of sever condition in hospitalized COVID-19 patients. Angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) was recently identified to functional receptor of SARS-CoV-2. Previous experimental data revealed ACE2 level was increased following treatment with ACE inhibitors (ACEIs) and angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs). Currently doctors concern whether these commonly used renin-angiotensin system (RAS) blockers-ACEIs/ARBs may increase the severity of COVID-19.
Methods
We extracted data regarding 50 hospitalized hypertension patients with laboratory confirmed COVID-19 in the Renmin Hospital of Wuhan University from Feb 7 to Mar 03, 2020. These patients were grouped into RAS blockers group (Group A, n=20) and non-RAS blockers group (Group B, n=30) according to the basic blood pressure medications. All patients continued to use pre-admission antihypertensive drugs. Clinical severity (symptoms, laboratory and chest CT findings, etc.), clinical course, and short time outcome were analyzed after hospital admission.
Results
Ten (50%) and seventeen (56.7%) of the Group A and Group B participants were males (P=0.643), and the average age was 52.65±13.12 and 67.77±12.84 years (P=0.000), respectively. The blood pressure of both groups was under effective control. There was no significant difference in clinical severity, clinical course and in-hospital mortality between Group A and Group B. Serum cardiac troponin I (cTnI) (P=0.03), and N-terminal (NT)-pro hormone BNP (NT-proBNP) (P=0.04) showed significant lower level in Group A than in Group B. But the patients with more than 0.04ng/mL or elevated NT-proBNP level had no statistical significance between the two groups. In patients over 65 years or under 65 years, cTnI or NT-proBNP level showed no difference between the two groups.
Conclusions
We observed there was no obvious difference in clinical characteristics between RAS blockers and non-RAS blockers groups. These data suggest ACEIs/ARBs may have few effects on increasing the clinical severe conditions of COVID-19.",2020,"In patients over 65 years or under 65 years, cTnI or NT-proBNP level showed no difference between the two groups.

112,32395481,TRIB3 rs6037475 is a potential biomarker for predicting felodipine drug response in Chinese patients with hypertension.,"Background
Our previous studies have found that single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of tribbles homolog 3 ( TRIB3 ) are related to the hypotensive effects of calcium-channel blockers (CCBs) and angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors. In this study, we aimed at exploring and validating the effect of TRIB3 polymorphism on antihypertensive drugs responses.
Methods
A total of 830 hypertensive patients, who were administered with open-labeled hydrochlorothiazide (12.5 mg once daily) and randomly assigned to off-labeled felodipine (5 mg) or a matched placebo combination treatment (1:1), were selected from the Felodipine Event Reduction (FEVER) study. A strategy of screening 259 samples and validating the remaining 531 samples was implemented. Four functional SNPs were selected (rs2295490, rs11470129, rs4815567 and rs6037475 in TRIB3 ). A mixed linear model was performed to analyze the effects of TRIB3 SNPs on antihypertensive drugs responses.
Results
We found that TRIB3 rs6037475 CC genotype was associated with a reduction of diastolic blood pressure (DBP) (P=6.3×10 -3 ) in the felodipine treatment group of screening set, and was also associated with a reduction of systolic blood pressure (SBP) (P=0.021), DBP (P=6.0×10 -3 ) and mean arterial pressure (MAP) (P=0.021) in the felodipine treatment group of the validation set. As for the reductions influenced by the rs2295490, rs11470129 and rs4815567 genetic variations, however, the adjusted P-value did not reach statistical significance. Combined screening and validation set analysis found that patients with TRIB3 rs6037475 CC genotype had a significant higher mean SBP, DBP and MAP than those with TT genotype in the felodipine treatment group (CC vs . TT -10.2±0.74 vs . -17.8±0.21, P=7.8×10 -3 ; -4.6±0.50 vs . -10.2±0.23, P=3.0×10 -4 ; -6.5±0.54 vs. -12.7±0.14, P=3.0×10 -4 , respectively).

Treatment allocation and research data were reviewed by the Data Safety and Monitoring Committee and researchers were kept blind. We produced data shells based on a pre-existing published protocol and produced detailed descriptions of statistical analyses. This study includes primary, secondary and safety endpoints. Relevant statistical comparisons were planned and discussed in a transparent manner. They are publicly available, verifiable and were determined prior to the data collection process being completed.
Results
We developed a SAP for the ATTEMPT study and an outline and list of mock tables were also created. We produced descriptions of analyses of baseline characteristics, patient care approaches, efficacy measures, and outcomes. This study defined five previously specified subgroups and compared the statistics of groups within these subgroups.
Conclusions
This SAP has been developed for the ATTEMPT study and has high-quality standards of internal validity to minimize analysis bias.

114,32395686,Gastroscopy Should Come Before Colonoscopy Using CO 2 Insufflation in Same Day Bidirectional Endoscopies: A Randomized Controlled Trial.,"Background and Aims
Same day bidirectional endoscopies (esophagogastroduodenoscopies [EGD]s and colonoscopies) are routinely performed. However, the best sequence of procedures is unknown, as is whether the use of carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) affects the preferred sequence of procedures. This study aims to determine the preferred sequence of procedures and choice of insufflation gas (air or CO 2 ) in patients undergoing same day bidirectional endoscopies.
Methods
Two hundred adults with a clinical indication for same day bidirectional endoscopies were randomized equally into four groups: A1 (EGD first, CO 2 as insufflator); A2 (EGD first, air as insufflator); B1 (colonoscopy first, CO 2 as insufflator); and B2 (colonoscopy first, air as insufflator). All procedures were performed with conscious sedation (Midazolam/Fentanyl). The primary outcome was patients' overall comfort/satisfaction with the procedures and sedation received, as assessed by questionnaires and validated scoring scales (Nurse-Assessed Patient Comfort Score [NAPCOMS], La Crosse [WI]) collected during the procedures, before discharge, and on day 7 postprocedure.
Results
Two hundred patients were randomized, with data available for 186. Mean Midazolam dose between groups was significantly less in the EGD first groups ( P =0.01). During the procedures, no differences were found in patients' comfort as per the nurse reported NAPCOMS scores ( P =0.19) or the Lacrosse (WI) endoscopy scores ( P =0.05). On postprocedure days 0 and 7, no differences were found in the patients' reported Lacrosse (WI) scores, nausea, sore throat, dizziness, satisfaction with sedation or overall level of procedural satisfaction ( P >0.05 for each). However, bloating and discomfort were significantly lower in the CO 2 arms ( P <0.001).
Conclusions
This randomized controlled trial using validated patient comfort scoring assessments for same day bidirectional endoscopies demonstrated that the sequence of procedures affects the sedation used but does not affect overall patient comfort or satisfaction. Lesser sedation is needed in the EGD first group, and less postprocedural abdominal pain/discomfort and bloating is seen with CO 2 insufflation.",2020,Mean Midazolam dose between groups was significantly less in the EGD first groups ( P =0.01).,"['patients undergoing same day bidirectional endoscopies', 'Two hundred adults with a clinical indication for same day bidirectional endoscopies', 'Two hundred patients were randomized, with data available for 186']","['conscious sedation (Midazolam/Fentanyl', 'insufflation gas (air or CO 2 ', 'A1 (EGD first, CO 2 as insufflator); A2 (EGD first, air as insufflator); B1 (colonoscopy first, CO 2 as insufflator); and B2 (colonoscopy first, air as insufflator']","['postprocedural abdominal pain/discomfort and bloating', 'Lacrosse (WI) scores, nausea, sore throat, dizziness, satisfaction with sedation or overall level of procedural satisfaction', 'overall comfort/satisfaction with the procedures and sedation received, as assessed by questionnaires and validated scoring scales (Nurse-Assessed Patient Comfort Score [NAPCOMS], La Crosse [WI', 'Lacrosse (WI) endoscopy scores', 'overall patient comfort or satisfaction', 'bloating and discomfort', 'NAPCOMS scores']","[{'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patient'}, {'cui': 'C0332173', 'cui_str': 'Daily'}, {'cui': 'C0014245', 'cui_str': 'Endoscopy'}, {'cui': 'C4319558', 'cui_str': '200'}, {'cui': 'C0001675', 'cui_str': 'Adult'}, {'cui': 'C0205210', 'cui_str': 'Clinical'}, {'cui': 'C0392360', 'cui_str': 'Indication of'}, {'cui': 'C0470187', 'cui_str': 'Availability of'}]","[{'cui': 'C0079159', 'cui_str': 'Conscious sedation'}, {'cui': 'C0026056', 'cui_str': 'Midazolam'}, {'cui': 'C0015846', 'cui_str': 'Fentanyl'}, {'cui': 'C0021634', 'cui_str': 'Insufflation'}, {'cui': 'C0017110', 'cui_str': 'Gas'}, {'cui': 'C0001861', 'cui_str': 'Air'}, {'cui': 'C0079304', 'cui_str': 'Esophagogastroduodenoscopy'}, {'cui': 'C0021639', 'cui_str': 'Insufflator'}, {'cui': 'C0009378', 'cui_str': 'Colonoscopy'}]","[{'cui': 'C0000737', 'cui_str': 'Abdominal pain'}, {'cui': 'C2364135', 'cui_str': 'Discomfort'}, {'cui': 'C0022909', 'cui_str': 'Lacrosse'}, {'cui': 'C0449820', 'cui_str': 'Score'}, {'cui': 'C0027497', 'cui_str': 'Nausea'}, {'cui': 'C0031350', 'cui_str': 'Pharyngitis'}, {'cui': 'C0012833', 'cui_str': 'Dizziness'}, {'cui': 'C0242428', 'cui_str': 'Satisfaction'}, {'cui': 'C0235195', 'cui_str': 'Sedated'}, {'cui': 'C0282416', 'cui_str': 'Overall'}, {'cui': 'C0441889', 'cui_str': 'Levels'}, {'cui': 'C0025664', 'cui_str': 'methods'}, {'cui': 'C0034394', 'cui_str': 'Questionnaires'}, {'cui': 'C0175659', 'cui_str': 'Scale'}, {'cui': 'C0028661', 'cui_str': 'Nursing personnel'}, {'cui': 'C4277744', 'cui_str': 'Patient Comfort'}, {'cui': 'C0014245', 'cui_str': 'Endoscopy'}]",200.0,0.0535872,Mean Midazolam dose between groups was significantly less in the EGD first groups ( P =0.01).,"[{'ForeName': 'Fahd', 'Initials': 'F', 'LastName': 'Jowhari', 'Affiliation': ""Gastrointestinal Diseases Research Unit, Department of Medicine, Queen's University, Kingston, Ontario, Canada.""}, {'ForeName': 'Lawrence', 'Initials': 'L', 'LastName': 'Hookey', 'Affiliation': ""Gastrointestinal Diseases Research Unit, Department of Medicine, Queen's University, Kingston, Ontario, Canada.""}]",Journal of the Canadian Association of Gastroenterology,['10.1093/jcag/gwy074']

116,31201110,Radiotherapy Quality Assurance for the CHHiP Trial: Conventional Versus Hypofractionated High-Dose Intensity-Modulated Radiotherapy in Prostate Cancer.,"AIMS
The CHHiP trial investigated the use of moderate hypofractionation for the treatment of localised prostate cancer using intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT). A radiotherapy quality assurance programme was developed to assess compliance with treatment protocol and to audit treatment planning and dosimetry of IMRT. This paper considers the outcome and effectiveness of the programme.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
Quality assurance exercises included a pre-trial process document and planning benchmark cases, prospective case reviews and a dosimetry site visit on-trial and a post-trial feedback questionnaire.
RESULTS
In total, 41 centres completed the quality assurance programme (37 UK, four international) between 2005 and 2010. Centres used either forward-planned (field-in-field single phase) or inverse-planned IMRT (25 versus 17). For pre-trial quality assurance exercises, 7/41 (17%) centres had minor deviations in their radiotherapy processes; 45/82 (55%) benchmark plans had minor variations and 17/82 (21%) had major variations. One hundred prospective case reviews were completed for 38 centres. Seventy-one per cent required changes to clinical outlining pre-treatment (primarily prostate apex and base, seminal vesicles and penile bulb). Errors in treatment planning were reduced relative to pre-trial quality assurance results (49% minor and 6% major variations). Dosimetry audits were conducted for 32 centres. Ion chamber dose point measurements were within ±2.5% in the planning target volume and ±8% in the rectum. 28/36 films for combined fields passed gamma criterion 3%/3 mm and 11/15 of IMRT fluence film sets passed gamma criterion 4%/4 mm using a 98% tolerance. Post-trial feedback showed that trial participation was beneficial in evolving clinical practice and that the quality assurance programme helped some centres to implement and audit prostate IMRT.
CONCLUSION
Overall, quality assurance results were satisfactory and the CHHiP quality assurance programme contributed to the success of the trial by auditing radiotherapy treatment planning and protocol compliance. Quality assurance supported the introduction of IMRT in UK centres, giving additional confidence and external review of IMRT where it was a newly adopted technique.",2019,Errors in treatment planning were reduced relative to pre-trial quality assurance results (49% minor and 6% major variations).,"['Prostate Cancer', 'One hundred prospective case reviews were completed for 38 centres']","['Hypofractionated High-Dose Intensity-Modulated Radiotherapy', 'forward-planned (field-in-field single phase) or inverse-planned IMRT', 'intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT']","['quality assurance programme', 'Radiotherapy Quality Assurance']","[{'cui': 'C0376358', 'cui_str': 'Malignant tumor of prostate'}, {'cui': 'C1704407', 'cui_str': '100'}, {'cui': 'C0023981', 'cui_str': 'Longitudinal Studies'}, {'cui': 'C0868928', 'cui_str': 'Case'}, {'cui': 'C0282443', 'cui_str': 'Review'}, {'cui': 'C0205197', 'cui_str': 'Complete'}, {'cui': 'C0205099', 'cui_str': 'Central'}]","[{'cui': 'C0444956', 'cui_str': 'High dose'}, {'cui': 'C0522510', 'cui_str': 'With intensity'}, {'cui': 'C0443264', 'cui_str': 'Modulated'}, {'cui': 'C0034619', 'cui_str': 'radiotherapy'}, {'cui': 'C0439780', 'cui_str': 'Forward'}, {'cui': 'C0440042', 'cui_str': ""Field's stain""}, {'cui': 'C0037179', 'cui_str': 'Single person'}, {'cui': 'C0205390', 'cui_str': 'Phase'}, {'cui': 'C0439850', 'cui_str': 'Inverse'}, {'cui': 'C0270724', 'cui_str': 'Infantile neuroaxonal dystrophy'}]","[{'cui': 'C0332306', 'cui_str': 'Quality'}, {'cui': 'C0034619', 'cui_str': 'radiotherapy'}]",,0.0904612,Errors in treatment planning were reduced relative to pre-trial quality assurance results (49% minor and 6% major variations).,"[{'ForeName': 'O', 'Initials': 'O', 'LastName': 'Naismith', 'Affiliation': 'Royal Marsden NHS Foundation Trust, London, UK.

117,32406224,The recovery of reaching movement in breast cancer survivors: two different rehabilitative protocols in comparison.,"BACKGROUND
Breast-cancer (BC) is the most common cancer in women in the developed world. The about the sequelae of surgery, especially in case of mastectomy or modified radical mastectomy is grown. Nowadays it's important choose appropriate exercise-programs to allow recovery in ""quantity"" but also in ""quality"" ""of the movement of the operated upper-limb.
AIM
The aim of this study was to verify whether specific exercises for the scapula may induce changes in fluidity of the reaching movement.
DESIGN
Randomized control-trial double-blind study.
SETTING
Exercise training laboratory and Gait Analysis laboratory.
POPULATION
Sixty-three breast cancer survivors were enrolled.
METHODS
Participants randomized to Single Rehabilitative Treatment (ST), or to Group Rehabilitative Treatment (GT). VAS, DASH and a biomechanical-evaluation of upper limb were performed for each group before treatment (T0=baseline), at the end rehabilitative treatment (T1) and after three months of follow-up (T2).
RESULTS
Respect within group analysis, in the ST and in the GT, for VAS an improvement along evaluation times were observed, respectively at T0 to T1 and at T0 to T2 (p<0,001) without a statistically significant difference between groups. At the same, for the DASH, the results showed the same trend without a statistically significant difference between groups. For biomechanics parameters, at T2 velocity was statistically significantly greater in the ST than in the GT (p=0.029) in contrast with the duration, that was statistically significantly greater in the GT than in the ST (p=0.010).
CONCLUSIONS
Both protocols are effective in reducing pain and for functional recovery of the upperlimb. The adoption of a non-intensive rehabilitation program should be implemented at least in the first year after the operation, with the adoption of specific myofascial exercises on the scapulothoracic joint with better results in the ""qualitative"" recovery of the achievement.
CLINICAL REHABILITATION IMPACT
Our study emphasizes the importance of rehabilitation in BC survivors after mastectomy, even during the course of radiotherapy and chemotherapy and the adoption of specific myofascial exercises on the scapulo-thoracic joint and specific exercises of muscular stretching on the pectoral muscle. Therefore, the proposed rehabilitation protocol must be ""clipped"" and ""integrated"" according to the specific objectives for each individual patient.",2020,"For biomechanics parameters, at T2 velocity was statistically significantly greater in the ST than in the GT (p=0.029) in contrast with the duration, that was statistically significantly greater in the GT than in the ST (p=0.010).

118,32406265,Peer Relations and Delinquency Among Girls in Foster Care Following a Skill-Building Preventive Intervention.,"There is evidence that risk for delinquency is elevated among girls with foster care histories, and one correlate of delinquency is affiliating with peers who engage in delinquent behavior. Although intervention studies have shown positive effects of interventions that target delinquent peer affiliation on reductions in delinquency among adolescents with juvenile justice histories, the success of such interventions for younger girls in foster care, without prior involvement with juvenile justice, is unknown. We analyzed data from a randomized clinical trial of the middle school version of the Keep Safe intervention in a sample of girls in foster care ( n = 100). The intervention was delivered to girls and foster parents during the transition to middle school. Path analysis suggested a significant intervention effect on reduction in affiliation with delinquent peers at 12 months ( B = -.21). No significant mediation effects were identified. The middle school Keep Safe intervention shows promise as a preventative intervention for reducing affiliation with delinquent peers, which importantly is associated with adolescent delinquent behavior.

119,32406284,Prophylaxis of Radiation-Induced Dermatitis in Patients With Breast Cancer Using Herbal Creams: A Prospective Randomized Controlled Trial.,"Radiation-induced toxicity is a major limiting factor for prescribing radiation dose in cancer radiotherapy. Skin reaction to radiation is one of the primary concerns, which could affect quality of life of the patients both physically and mentally. Reviews of the literature show limited number of effective reagents for its prophylaxis. In this study, we attempted to determine whether prophylactic treatment of the 3 different herbal creams containing Centella asiatica , Cucumis sativus , and Thunbergia laurifolia extracts as well as a commercial moisturizing cream could reduce acute skin reaction in breast cancer patients undergoing radiotherapy. A total of 153 breast cancer patients undergoing radiotherapy were randomly assigned into 5 different groups with one group receiving no treatment. The patients were instructed to apply their designated creams once daily from their first radiotherapy session until 1-month post-irradiation. Their skins were graded by a radiation oncologist on a weekly basis until 1-month post-irradiation to identify any skin reactions. The results showed that the administration of the herbal creams or the moisturizing cream could neither reduce the severity nor delay the onset of dermatitis compared with the no treatment group. However, despite the limited benefits from the prophylaxis, the Cucumis sativus cream was shown to help with the skin recovery post-irradiation. These results suggested that breast cancer patients undergoing radiotherapy should be advised to apply moisturizing cream to the area of irradiated skin.",2020,The results showed that the administration of the herbal creams or the moisturizing cream could neither reduce the severity nor delay the onset of dermatitis compared with the no treatment group.,"['breast cancer patients undergoing radiotherapy', '153 breast cancer patients undergoing', 'Patients', 'breast cancer patients undergoing']","['Herbal Creams', 'moisturizing cream', 'radiotherapy']","['acute skin reaction', 'severity nor delay the onset of dermatitis']","[{'cui': 'C0006142', 'cui_str': 'Malignant tumor of breast'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patient'}, {'cui': 'C0034619', 'cui_str': 'radiotherapy'}]","[{'cui': 'C0376667', 'cui_str': 'Herbals'}, {'cui': 'C0700385', 'cui_str': 'Cream'}, {'cui': 'C0034619', 'cui_str': 'radiotherapy'}]","[{'cui': 'C0205178', 'cui_str': 'Acuteness'}, {'cui': 'C0221743', 'cui_str': 'Skin reaction'}, {'cui': 'C0439793', 'cui_str': 'Severities'}, {'cui': 'C0332162', 'cui_str': 'Onset of'}, {'cui': 'C0011603', 'cui_str': 'Dermatitis'}]",153.0,0.0204777,The results showed that the administration of the herbal creams or the moisturizing cream could neither reduce the severity nor delay the onset of dermatitis compared with the no treatment group.,"[{'ForeName': 'Saengrawee', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Thanthong', 'Affiliation': 'HRH Princess Chulabhorn College of Medical Science, Chulabhorn Royal Academy, Bangkok, Thailand.'}, {'ForeName': 'Rattanaporn', 'Initials': 'R', 'LastName': 'Nanthong', 'Affiliation': 'HRH Princess Chulabhorn College of Medical Science, Chulabhorn Royal Academy, Bangkok, Thailand.'}, {'ForeName': 'Sirikorn', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Kongwattanakul', 'Affiliation': 'HRH Princess Chulabhorn College of Medical Science, Chulabhorn Royal Academy, Bangkok, Thailand.'}, {'ForeName': 'Kanyanee', 'Initials': 'K', 'LastName': 'Laebua', 'Affiliation': 'HRH Princess Chulabhorn College of Medical Science, Chulabhorn Royal Academy, Bangkok, Thailand.'}, {'ForeName': 'Pornwaree', 'Initials': 'P', 'LastName': 'Trirussapanich', 'Affiliation': 'HRH Princess Chulabhorn College of Medical Science, Chulabhorn Royal Academy, Bangkok, Thailand.'}, {'ForeName': 'Supaporn', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Pitiporn', 'Affiliation': 'Chaopraya Abhaibhubejhr Hospital; Chaopraya Abhaiphubejhr Hospital Foundation, Prachinburi, Thailand.'}, {'ForeName': 'Danupon', 'Initials': 'D', 'LastName': 'Nantajit', 'Affiliation': 'HRH Princess Chulabhorn College of Medical Science, Chulabhorn Royal Academy, Bangkok, Thailand.'}]",Integrative cancer therapies,['10.1177/1534735420920714']
120,32398065,An antibiotic stewardship programme to reduce inappropriate antibiotic prescribing for acute respiratory infections in rural Chinese primary care facilities: study protocol for a clustered randomised controlled trial.,"BACKGROUND
Inappropriate prescribing of antibiotics for acute respiratory infections at the primary care level represents the major source of antibiotic misuse in healthcare, and is a major driver for antimicrobial resistance worldwide. In this study we will develop, pilot and evaluate the effectiveness of a comprehensive antibiotic stewardship programme in China's primary care hospitals to reduce inappropriate prescribing of antibiotics for acute respiratory infections among all ages.
METHODS
We will use a parallel-group, cluster-randomised, controlled, superiority trial with blinded outcome evaluation but unblinded treatment (providers and patients). We will randomise 34 primary care hospitals from two counties within Guangdong province into the intervention and control arm (1:1 overall ratio) stratified by county (8:9 within-county ratio). In the control arm, antibiotic prescribing and management will continue through usual care. In the intervention arm, we will implement an antibiotic stewardship programme targeting family physicians and patients/caregivers. The family physician components include: (1) training using new operational guidelines, (2) improved management and peer-review of antibiotic prescribing, (3) improved electronic medical records and smart phone app facilitation. The patient/caregiver component involves patient education via family physicians, leaflets and videos. The primary outcome is the proportion of prescriptions for acute respiratory infections (excluding pneumonia) that contain any antibiotic(s). Secondary outcomes will address how frequently specific classes of antibiotics are prescribed, how frequently key non-antibiotic alternatives are prescribed and the costs of consultations. We will conduct a qualitative process evaluation to explore operational questions regarding acceptability, cultural appropriateness and burden of technology use, as well as a cost-effectiveness analysis and a long-term benefit evaluation. The duration of the intervention will be 12 months, with another 24 months' post-trial long-term follow-up.
DISCUSSION
Our study is one of the first trials to evaluate the effect of an antibiotic stewardship programme in primary care settings in a low- or middle-income country (LMIC). All interventional activities will be designed to be embedded into routine primary care with strong local ownership. Through the trial we intend to impact on clinical practice and national policy in antibiotic prescription for primary care facilities in rural China and other LMICs.

121,32398642,Oxytocin biases eye-gaze to dynamic and static social images and the eyes of fearful faces: associations with trait autism.,"A key functional effect of intranasal oxytocin with potential therapeutic relevance for autism-spectrum disorder is its reported facilitation of attention towards social stimuli, notably the eye region of faces. In the current randomized placebo-controlled within-subject experiment on 40 healthy males, we investigated the robustness of this facilitation of attention by intranasal oxytocin (24IU) towards social cues. Eye-tracking measures of preference for dynamic and static social vs. non-social stimuli were taken in four different paradigms where autistic individuals tend to exhibit reduced interest in social stimuli. Additionally, we investigated whether oxytocin increases attention towards the eyes relative to other salient face regions in an emotional face paradigm. Results showed that the time spent viewing both dynamic and static social vs. non-social stimuli was negatively associated with trait autism and significantly increased following intranasal oxytocin. For face stimuli, oxytocin primarily increased gaze towards the eyes of fearful expression faces but not for other face emotions. Overall, our findings demonstrate that oxytocin significantly shifts gaze preference towards social vs. non-social stimuli and to the eyes of fearful faces. Importantly, oxytocin appears generally to shift attention more towards salient social stimuli of particular relevance in the context of autism providing further support for its potential therapeutic use in autism-spectrum disorder.",2020,"A key functional effect of intranasal oxytocin with potential therapeutic relevance for autism-spectrum disorder is its reported facilitation of attention towards social stimuli, notably the eye region of faces.","['40 healthy males', 'autism-spectrum disorder']","['oxytocin', 'intranasal oxytocin', 'Oxytocin', 'intranasal oxytocin (24IU) towards social cues', 'placebo']","['time spent viewing both dynamic and static social vs. non-social stimuli', 'shifts gaze preference towards social vs. non-social stimuli', 'trait autism']","[{'cui': 'C0086582', 'cui_str': 'Male'}, {'cui': 'C0524528', 'cui_str': 'Autism spectrum disorder'}]","[{'cui': 'C0030095', 'cui_str': 'Oxytocin'}, {'cui': 'C0442118', 'cui_str': 'Intranasal approach'}, {'cui': 'C0010439', 'cui_str': 'Cues'}, {'cui': 'C0032042', 'cui_str': 'Sham Treatment'}]","[{'cui': 'C0040223', 'cui_str': 'Time'}, {'cui': 'C0449911', 'cui_str': 'View'}, {'cui': 'C0729333', 'cui_str': 'Dynamic'}, {'cui': 'C0441463', 'cui_str': 'Static'}, {'cui': 'C0234402', 'cui_str': 'Stimulus'}, {'cui': 'C0333051', 'cui_str': 'Shift'}, {'cui': 'C0553544', 'cui_str': 'Gaze'}, {'cui': 'C0558295', 'cui_str': 'Preferences'}, {'cui': 'C0004352', 'cui_str': 'Autistic disorder'}]",40.0,0.0281423,"A key functional effect of intranasal oxytocin with potential therapeutic relevance for autism-spectrum disorder is its reported facilitation of attention towards social stimuli, notably the eye region of faces.","[{'ForeName': 'Jiao', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Le', 'Affiliation': 'The Clinical Hospital of Chengdu Brain Science Institute, MOE Key Laboratory for Neuroinformation, University of Electronic Science and Technology of China, 611731, Chengdu, China.'}, {'ForeName': 'Juan', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Kou', 'Affiliation': 'The Clinical Hospital of Chengdu Brain Science Institute, MOE Key Laboratory for Neuroinformation, University of Electronic Science and Technology of China, 611731, Chengdu, China.'}, {'ForeName': 'Weihua', 'Initials': 'W', 'LastName': 'Zhao', 'Affiliation': 'The Clinical Hospital of Chengdu Brain Science Institute, MOE Key Laboratory for Neuroinformation, University of Electronic Science and Technology of China, 611731, Chengdu, China.'}, {'ForeName': 'Meina', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Fu', 'Affiliation': 'The Clinical Hospital of Chengdu Brain Science Institute, MOE Key Laboratory for Neuroinformation, University of Electronic Science and Technology of China, 611731, Chengdu, China.'}, {'ForeName': 'Yingying', 'Initials': 'Y', 'LastName': 'Zhang', 'Affiliation': 'The Clinical Hospital of Chengdu Brain Science Institute, MOE Key Laboratory for Neuroinformation, University of Electronic Science and Technology of China, 611731, Chengdu, China.'}, {'ForeName': 'Benjamin', 'Initials': 'B', 'LastName': 'Becker', 'Affiliation': 'The Clinical Hospital of Chengdu Brain Science Institute, MOE Key Laboratory for Neuroinformation, University of Electronic Science and Technology of China, 611731, Chengdu, China.'}, {'ForeName': 'Keith M', 'Initials': 'KM', 'LastName': 'Kendrick', 'Affiliation': 'The Clinical Hospital of Chengdu Brain Science Institute, MOE Key Laboratory for Neuroinformation, University of Electronic Science and Technology of China, 611731, Chengdu, China. kkendrick@uestc.edu.cn.'}]",Translational psychiatry,['10.1038/s41398-020-0830-x']
122,32398945,"Results of a Randomized, Double-Blinded, Placebo-Controlled, Phase 2.5 Study of Saracatinib (AZD0530), in Patients with Recurrent Osteosarcoma Localized to the Lung.","Purpose
Osteosarcoma is a rare cancer and a third of patients who have completed primary treatment will develop osteosarcoma recurrence. The Src pathway has been implicated in the metastatic behavior of osteosarcoma; about 95% of samples examined express Src or have evidence of downstream activation of this pathway. Saracatinib (AZD0530) is a potent and selective Src kinase inhibitor that was evaluated in adults in Phase 1 studies. The primary goal of this study was to determine if treatment with saracatinib could increase progression-free survival (PFS) for patients who have undergone complete resection of osteosarcoma lung metastases in a double-blinded, placebo-controlled trial. Patients and Methods . Subjects with recurrent osteosarcoma localized to lung and who had complete surgical removal of all lung nodules were randomized within six weeks after complete surgical resection. Saracatinib, or placebo, was administered at a dose of 175 mg orally, once daily, for up to thirteen 28-day cycles.
Results
Thirty-seven subjects were included in the analyses; 18 subjects were randomized to receive saracatinib and 19 to receive placebo. Intent-to-treat analysis demonstrated a median PFS of 19.4 months in the saracatinib treatment group and 8.6 months in the placebo treatment group ( p =0.47). Median OS was not reached in either arm.
Conclusions
Although saracatinib was well tolerated in this patient population, there was no apparent impact of the drug in this double-blinded, placebo-controlled trial on OS, and Src inhibition alone may not be sufficient to suppress metastatic progression in osteosarcoma.

123,32398946,Long-Term Follow-up of a Randomized Study of Oral Etoposide versus Viscum album Fermentatum Pini as Maintenance Therapy in Osteosarcoma Patients in Complete Surgical Remission after Second Relapse.,"Background
In relapsed osteosarcoma, the 5-yr postrelapse disease-free survival (PRDFS) rate after the second relapse is <20%. In June 2007, a randomized study was started comparing oral etoposide vs Viscum album fermentatum Pini (an extract derived from the parasitic plant Viscum album L., European mistletoe) as maintenance therapy in patients with metastatic osteosarcoma in complete surgical remission after the second relapse. The primary endpoint was the PRDFS rate at 12 months (compared to the historical control rate). This is a long-term updated result. Patients and Methods . 10 patients received oral etoposide 50 mg/m 2 daily for 21 days every 28 days for 6 months, and 9 patients received Viscum album fermentatum Pini 3 times/wk subcutaneously for 1 year. The study closed early in July 2011 due to insufficient recruitment. Lymphocyte subpopulations were analyzed at T0, T3, T6, T9, and T12 months.
Results
On 30 June 2019, at a median follow-up ITT of 83 months (range 3-144 ms), a median PRDFS of 106 ms (2-144) was observed in the Viscum arm with 5/9 patients who never relapse vs a PRDFS of 7 months (3-134) in the etoposide arm (all patients in the Etoposide arm relapsed) (hazard ratio HR = 0.287, 95% CI: 0.076-0.884, p =0.03). Model forecast 10-yr overall survival rates as 64% in the Viscum arm and 33% in the etoposide arm. Lymphocyte subpopulation counts (CD3, CD4, and CD56) showed an increase in the Viscum arm while a decrease was observed in the etoposide arm during treatment.
Conclusions
After 12 years from the start of the trial, the patients in the Viscum arm continue to show a considerably longer PRDFS compared to oral etoposide, and a trend for an advantage in OS is evident even if the number of treated patients is too small to draw conclusions. Viscum as maintenance treatment after complete surgical remission in relapsed osteosarcoma should be further investigated and compared with other drugs.",2020,"Lymphocyte subpopulation counts (CD3, CD4, and CD56) showed an increase in the Viscum arm while a decrease was observed in the etoposide arm during treatment.

This is a midterm review of a randomized, crossover trial comparing autologous BMC and platelet product injections versus exercise therapy in the treatment of partial and full-thickness supraspinatus tears. Patients enrolled into the study were between 18 and 65 years of age presenting to an outpatient orthopedic clinic with partial to full thickness, nonretracted supraspinatus tendon tears. Enrolled patients were randomized to either ultrasound-guided autologous BMC with PRP and platelet lysate (PL) percutaneous injection treatment or exercise therapy. Patients could cross over to BMC treatment after at least 3 months of exercise therapy. Patients completed the Disability of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand (DASH) scores as the primary outcome measure. Secondary outcomes included the numeric pain scale (NPS), a modified Single Assessment Numeric Evaluation (SANE), and a blinded MRI review. At this midterm review, results from 25 enrolled patients who have reached at least 12-month follow-up are presented. No serious adverse events were reported. Significant differences were seen in patient reported outcomes for the BMC treatment compared to exercise therapy at 3 and 6 months for pain, and for function and reported improvement (SANE) at 3 months ( p < .05). Patients reported a mean 89% improvement at 24 months, with sustained functional gains and pain reduction. MRI review showed a size decrease of most tears post-BMC treatment.

126,32399107,Peptide-based formula versus standard-based polymeric formula for critically ill children: is it superior for patients' tolerance?,"Introduction
Malnutrition affects 50% of hospitalized children and 25-70% of critically ill children. Enteral tube feeding is generally considered the preferred modality for critically ill pediatric patients. Clinical advantages of using peptide-based formulas are still controversial in critically ill children. The aim of this study was to compare the effect of a peptide-based formula versus a standard polymeric formula on feeding tolerance and whether this will affect the outcome among critically ill children.
Material and methods
This single blind case control study was conducted on 180 randomly selected critically ill children in the pediatric critical care unit (PICU) of Ain Shams University. Patients were divided into 2 groups: a group receiving a standard polymeric formula (group 1; 90 patients) and a group receiving a peptide-based formula (group II; 90 patients). Nutritional requirements, days to reach full enteral feeding, feeding intolerance symptoms and anthropometric measurements were recorded for all patients at admission together with their pediatric risk of mortality score (PRISM). Length of PICU stay, occurrence of sepsis together with survival were analyzed at discharge as outcome measures.
Results
Patients receiving a peptide-based formula showed a significant decrease in feeding interruptions and abdominal distention ( p < 0.000), reached full enteral feeding faster (2.60 ±0.74 days versus 5.36 ±1.00 days in patients received polymeric standard formula; p < 0.001) and improved weight gain ( p < 0.028). Moreover, duration of sepsis was significantly shorter ( p < 0.045), but no difference in mortality was recorded between patient groups.
Conclusions
Peptide-based formula feeding was better tolerated than standard polymeric formula feeding in critically ill pediatric patients. However, the choice of patients receiving the peptide-based formula needs to be further evaluated.",2020,"Results

127,32399109,Effect of tranexamic acid on symptomatic venous thromboembolism in patients undergoing primary total knee arthroplasty.,"Introduction
This study aimed to investigate the effect of tranexamic acid (TXA) with sequential routine anticoagulation on postoperative symptomatic venous thromboembolism (VTE) in patients undergoing primary total knee arthroplasty (TKA).
Material and methods
This was a prospective study with randomized trials. From January 2013 to May 2015, 1880 patients undergoing primary TKA were enrolled in this study. Seven hundred and twenty patients who received TXA injection were included in the TXA group while 1160 patients who received placebo injection were included in the control group. Patients in the TXA group were treated with intravenous TXA or topical intravenous TXA, and all received sequential routine anticoagulation 12 h after the operation. We extracted data of patients' sex, age, primary diagnoses, and comorbidities that could potentially affect the prevalence rate of VTE. To discuss the risk factors of symbolic VTE, comparisons were made within the TXA group between patients with symbolic VTE and non-symbolic VTE. Logistic regression analysis was performed to analyze the concurrent effects of various factors on the prevalence rate of postoperative VTE.
Results
Thigh perimeter was not closely associated with TXA injection. Within the TXA group, 24 (3.3%) patients had perioperative symptomatic VTE, 16 (2.2%) deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and 8 (1.1%) pulmonary embolism. High body mass index (BMI), low fibrinogen (Fbg) and simultaneous bilateral TKA were significant risk factors in both univariate analysis and multivariate analysis.

128,32399130,A Clinical Randomized Controlled Trial of Acupuncture Treatment of Gastroparesis Using Different Acupoints.,"Objective
To explore the effect of ""selecting acupoints by site"" on the synergy effect of ""acupoint compatibility"" according to the clinical efficacy of acupuncture treatment of patients with gastroparesis.
Methods
A total of 99 patients who met the diagnostic criteria for gastroparesis were enrolled in 3 clinical centers and randomly divided into group A (33 cases), group B (33 cases, 1 case of shedding), and group C (33 cases, 1 case of shedding). In group A, acupuncture was performed at Zhongwan (CV 12) and Zusanli (ST 36); in group B, acupuncture was performed at Neiguan (PC 6) and Zusanli (ST 36); in group C, acupuncture was performed at nonacupoint and Zusanli (ST 36). Treatment was performed for 30 minutes every day, 5 days as a course of treatment. There were 2 days off between courses and three courses in total. Differences in a main symptom index of gastroparesis (GCSI) scores, 9 symptom scores, and a health questionnaire (SF-36) were compared between each group before and after treatment and 4 weeks after the end of treatment. The difference of gastric emptying rate was compared before and after treatment.
Results
The GCSI scores of each group after treatment and at follow-up were significantly lower than those before treatment ( P < 0.01), and the reduction in group A was greater than that of groups B and C ( P < 0.01). The score of each symptom was meaningfully lower than that before treatment ( P < 0.01 or P < 0.05). The effect was best in group A, followed by group B. After treatment, the barium meal in the stomach of the three groups was significantly reduced compared with before treatment ( P < 0.01). There was no statistical difference between the groups. The results of SF-36 showed that acupuncture treatment can improve health status, to a certain extent, and there was no significant difference in the three groups.
Conclusion
(1) Acupuncture is an effective method for the treatment of gastroparesis. (2) The combination of Zhongwan (CV 12) with Zusanli (ST 36) showed the most promising effect on relief of the symptoms in patients with gastroparesis. (3) ""Selecting acupoints by site"" is the key factor affecting the synergy effect of ""acupoint compatibility.""

129,32399201,An evaluation of a personalised text message reminder compared to a standard text message on postal questionnaire response rates: an embedded randomised controlled trial.,"Background : Research outcome data is commonly collected using postal questionnaires; however, poor response can introduce bias and reduce statistical power. Text messaging is simple, cost-effective, and can be customised to the individual. Personalised, reminder text messages may improve response rates. Methods : A two-arm, parallel group 'Study within a Trial' (SWAT) was embedded within the Occupational Therapist Intervention Study (OTIS), a randomised controlled trial of a home assessment for falls prevention in older people. OTIS participants who provided a mobile phone number were randomly allocated (1:1) to receive either a personalised text message (Title, Surname, plus York Trials Unit (YTU) text) or the standard YTU text alone, prior to receiving their four-month post-randomisation follow-up postal questionnaire. The primary outcome measure was the proportion of participants who returned the questionnaire. Secondary outcomes were: time to response, completeness of response, requirement of a reminder letter, and cost-effectiveness. Binary data were compared using logistic regression and time to response by Cox proportional hazards regression. Results : A total of 403 participants were randomised: 201 to the personalised text and 202 to the standard text. Of the 283 participants included in the final analysis, 278 (98.2%) returned their questionnaire; 136 (97.8%) for the personalised text versus 142 (98.6%) for the standard text (adjusted odds ratio 0.64, 95% CI 0.10 to 3.88, p=0.63). The median time to response was nine days in both groups. In total, 271 (97.5%) participants returned a complete questionnaire; 133 (97.8%) in the personalised text versus 138 (97.2%) for the standard text. In total, 21 reminder letters were sent. The additional cost of personalised text messages was £0.04 per participant retained. Conclusions : Personalised texts were not superior to standard texts in any outcome assessed in our study. Further SWATs are needed to perform a meta-analysis and obtain more evidence.

130,32399253,"Acthar Gel (repository corticotropin injection) for persistently active SLE: study design and baseline characteristics from a multicentre, randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial.","Objective
SLE is a chronic inflammatory autoimmune disease characterised by the excessive production of autoantibodies, immune complexes and proinflammatory cytokines. Repository corticotropin injection (RCI) is a naturally sourced complex mixture of adrenocorticotropic hormone analogues and other pituitary peptides. RCI is approved by the US Food and Drug Administration for use during an exacerbation or as maintenance therapy in select cases of SLE. This paper discusses the design and baseline characteristics of a multicentre, double-blind, randomised, placebo-controlled, 24-week clinical trial evaluating the effect of RCI in reducing disease activity for patients with persistently active SLE despite moderate-dose corticosteroid use.
Methods
Efficacy will be evaluated using the SLE Responder Index-4 (SRI-4), SLE Disease Activity Index-2000 (SLEDAI-2K), British Isles Lupus Assessment Group-2004 (BILAG-2004) and Physician's Global Assessment (PGA). The primary efficacy endpoint will be the proportion of SRI-4 responders at week 16. Secondary and exploratory endpoints will include changes in disease activity scores over time, prednisone dose and biomarkers of inflammation and bone turnover. The safety and tolerability profile of RCI will also be evaluated through adverse event profiles, physical examination, clinical laboratory tests and serum cortisol levels.
Results
Target enrolment for this global study is 270 patients, and as of 15 November 2019, the modified intent-to-treat population included 169 patients. The study cohort had 91.7% women, had a mean age of 39.7 years, mean SLEDAI-2K total score of 9.9, mean BILAG-2004 total score of 18.1, mean PGA of 59.7 and mean prednisone or equivalent daily dose of 11.1 mg. A total of 79.3% and 64.5% of patients were receiving concomitant antimalarial or immunosuppressive therapy, respectively.

132,32399396,Evidence for using dextromethorphan-quinidine for the treatment of agitation in dementia.,"Behavioral and psychological symptoms including agitation are common in dementia, and are associated with decreased quality of life, increased risk of institutionalization, and greater patient and caregiver distress. Pharmacological agents used for management of behavioral and psychological symptoms of dementia are limited by their tolerability, prompting a need for identifying efficacious and safe pharmacological treatments for managing agitation in dementia. The combination of dextromethorphan and quinidine sulfate is approved for pseudobulbar affect, and may be effective in managing agitation in dementia. A review of literature found only one randomized controlled trial that evaluated the use of dextromethorphan-quinidine for the management of agitation in dementia when compared to placebo.

133,32399407,Collagen crosslinking with photoactivated riboflavin in advanced infectious keratitis with corneal melting: Electrophysiological Study.,"AIM
To assess the effect of photoactivated chromophore for keratitis crosslinking (PACK-CXL) in case of severe keratitis with melting on the electrophysiological function of the retina and the optic nerve.
METHODS
The study included 32 eyes of 32 patients with smear positive severe infectious keratitis with corneal melting. The patients were randomly divided into two groups. Group I (control group) included 16 eyes received systemic and topical antimicrobial drugs guarded by culture and sensitivity test. Group II underwent CXL and then continued their antimicrobial treatment. Full field electroretinogram (ERG) and flash visual evoked potential (VEP) were done for each patient in both groups basically and then 1wk, 1 and 3mo post-treatment to assess the changes in the electrophysiological function of the retina and optic nerve.
RESULTS
Healing of 10 eyes in group I in comparison to 14 eyes in group II was recorded. The mean duration of healing was 36.56±5.21d in group I vs 20.2±4.4d in group II ( P <0.005). In group II, ERG showed an insignificant reduction of all parameters of ERG and VEP after CXL. The amplitude of scotopic rod response, oscillatory potential amplitude, flicker amplitude and photopic cone response were insignificantly decreased ( P =0.4, 0.8, 0.1, and 0.3 respectively). There were insignificant prolongation of latencies of scotopic rod, oscillatory potential, flicker and photopic cone response ( P =0.2, 0.7, 0.5 and 0.1).

134,32399409,Effect of capsular tension ring implantation on predicted refractive error after cataract surgery in patients with pseudoexfoliation syndrome.,"AIM
To investigate the effect of capsular tension ring (CTR) implantation on predicted refractive error after cataract surgery in patients with pseudoexfoliation (PEX) syndrome.
METHODS
This double-blind randomized clinical trial was conducted on 60 patients with PEX syndrome referring to Imam Khomeini Hospital affiliated to Ahvaz Jundishapur University of Medical Sciences, Ahvaz, Iran, for undergoing cataract surgery. The study population was divided into two groups, namely CTR group ( n =30) and non-CTR group (control group; n =30). The refractive error and anterior chamber depth (ACD) were measured 1wk, 1mo, and 3mo after phacoemulsification (PE) surgery.
RESULTS
The results indicated no statistically significant difference between the two groups in terms of predicted refractive error (obtained by subtracting preoperative predicted refractive error from actual postoperative refractive error) 1wk ( P =0.47), 1mo ( P= 0.30), and 3mo ( P =0.06) after the PE surgery. Regarding the CTR group, the changes of ACD was statistically significant 1 and 3mo after the PE surgery, compared to those obtained 1wk post-surgery ( P =0.005).
CONCLUSION
The CTR implantation in PEX cataractous patients without zonulysis has no statistically significant effect on the predicted refraction and ACD changes after PE.

135,32399410,Pentacam changes in primary angle-closure glaucoma after different lines of treatment.,"AIM
To assess the changes in the anterior chamber parameters using Pentacam following four different lines of treatment of primary angle-closure glaucoma (PACG).
METHODS
A retrospective comparative study included 126 patients (126 eye) presented within 24-48h after acute angle-closure glaucoma (AACG). Patients were divided into 2 groups: group A (68 eyes) with controlled intraocular pressure (IOP) ≤21 mm Hg, which included subgroup A1 (34 eyes) with clear lens underwent Nd:YAG laser peripheral iridotomy (LPI) and subgroup A2 (34 eyes) with cataract underwent standard phacoemulsification; and group B (58 eyes) with uncontrolled IOP, which included subgroup B1 (30 eyes) with clear lens underwent trabeculectomy and subgroup B2 (28 eyes) with cataract underwent combined phacoemulsification and trabeculectomy. Patients were followed up for at least 3mo. Primary outcomes were Pentacam anterior segment measurements [anterior chamber angle (ACA) and depth (ACD)]. Secondary outcomes were changes in IOP, visual acuity (VA) and recorded complications.
RESULTS
At the 3 rd month, there was significant increase in the ACA values in all studied groups compared to preoperative values ( P <0.001). The highest percent of increase in ACA was recorded in phacotrabeculectomy group B2 (128.40%). There was significant increase in ACD values at 3 rd month compared with baseline values ( P <0.001) for groups A1, A2, and B2; without change in B1 trabeculectomy group. The maximum deepening of ACD was noticed in group B2 with 94.27% increase. Significant decrease in postoperative IOP in groups A2, B1 and B2 ( P <0.001, P =0.014, and P <0.001 respectively). In group A1 there was significant increase in 3 rd month postoperative IOP from baseline values ( P <0.001). The maximum decrease in IOP was noticed in group B2 with 59.54% decrease. VA improvement in 3 rd month postoperative was recorded in all studied groups, maximum VA improvement was observed in group B2 up to 0.2 logMAR.
CONCLUSION
Pentacam can be a helpful tool in studying and comparing the effect of the different lines of management of PACG on the anterior chamber measures. Phacotrabeculectomy was proved to be an effective line for managing PACG with resultant significant increase in the anterior chamber parameters, IOP reduction as well as maximum VA improvement. LPI has only temporary effect on IOP with significant changes in ACA and ACD. Phacoemuslification alone can be an option in treating PACG.

136,32399413,Anatomic and functional results of idiopathic macular epiretinal membrane surgery.,"AIM
To assess the impact of macular surgery on the functional and anatomic outcomes in patients with grade 2 epiretinal membrane (ERM), and the effect of internal limiting membrane (ILM) peeling on visual acuity and to analyze the long-term effect of pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) on intraocular pressure (IOP).
METHODS
Pseudophakic eyes (62 eyes) diagnosed as idiopathic grade 2 ERM with at least 6mo postoperative follow-up were included in this retrospective study. The fellow eye was nonvitrectomized. Patients were divided into two groups: group 1 (29 eyes) treated with ERM and ILM peeling and group 2 (33 eyes) with only ERM peeling. Preoperative and postoperative best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), slit-lamp, and a dilated fundus examination was performed. IOP was measured with Goldman applanation tonometer before, day 1 and first week and each visit after surgery. The incidence of significant IOP elevation was compared between vitrectomized eyes and nonvitrectomized fellow eyes.
RESULTS
Visual improvement was statistically significant and similar in both groups ( P =0.008 in group 1, P =0.002 in group 2, P =0.09 inter-group). The amount of decrease in central macular thickness was statistically significant and similar in both groups ( P =0.005 group 1, P =0.008 group 2, P =0.37 intergroup). At the final follow-up (14.1±9.6mo) the incidence of significant IOP elevation was 4% in vitrectomized eyes (three eyes) and 3% (two eyes) in the nonvitrectomized fellow eyes ( P =0.12). Four eyes (12.1%) had recurrent ERM after a mean follow-up of 8.6±1.1mo in group 2, there was no recurrence in group 1 ( P =0.01).

137,32399460,Cost Analysis of Biliary Drainage Using Metal versus Plastic Stents in Hepatocellular Carcinoma Patients with Obstructive Jaundice.,"Background
The optimal method of biliary drainage for biliary obstruction caused by hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is controversial, and the possible endoscopic application of plastic and metal stents is the least invasive procedure to improve patients' quality of life.
Aim
Our objective was to study cost evaluation based on a clinical efficacy of both procedures in a randomized trial comparing both approaches in patients with biliary obstruction caused by HCC.
Methods
The strategy of management was based on clinical effectiveness of biliary drainage with either metal or plastic stents in 90 patients over a 1-year follow-up period. Total (direct and indirect) costs were evaluated.
Results
The direct costs were EGP 40,857.84 and 21,802.62 per patient with plastic and metal stents, respectively. Concerning the indirect costs, EGP 888 and 454 were spent for each patient with plastic and metal stents, respectively. The differences in the costs resulted from patients with plastic stent insertion requiring more second endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography procedures and more medication, medical consultation, and hospitalization during the year of follow-up.
Conclusions
Based on this analysis, the use of metal stents rather than plastic stents in biliary drainage is more cost effective for this group of patients.",2020,"The differences in the costs resulted from patients with plastic stent insertion requiring more second endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography procedures and more medication, medical consultation, and hospitalization during the year of follow-up.

138,32399492,Comparison of surgical cricothyroidotomy training: a randomized controlled trial of a swine model versus an animated robotic manikin model.,"Background
Airway obstruction remains a preventable cause of death on the battlefield. Surgical cricothyroidotomy is an essential skill for immediate airway management in trauma. Training for surgical cricothyroidotomy has been undertaken using simulators, cadavers or animal models. The ideal approach to training for this low volume and high-risk procedure is unknown. We hypothesized that current simulation technology provides an equal or better education for surgical cricothyroidotomy when compared with animal tissue training.
Methods
We performed a prospective randomized controlled study comparing training for surgical cricothyroidotomy using hands-on training on swine versus inanimate manikin. We enrolled medical students who had never performed or had formal instruction on surgical cricothyroidotomy. We randomized their instruction to use either a swine model or the inanimate version of the Operative Experience Inc. advanced surgical manikin. Participants' skills were then evaluated on human cadavers and on an advanced robotic manikin. Tests were scored using checklists modified from Objective Structured Assessment of Technical Skills and Tactical Combat Casualty Care. We compared scores between the groups using Wilcoxon rank sum tests and generalized linear models.
Results
Forty-eight participants were enrolled and trained; 30 participants completed the first testing session; 25 completed the second testing session. The mean time to establish an airway from the incision until the cuff was blown up was 95±52 s. There were no significant differences in any of the outcome measures between the two training groups.
Discussion
Measured performance was not different between subjects trained to perform surgical cricothyroidotomy on an animal model or a high fidelity manikin. The use of an advanced simulator has the potential to replace live tissue for this procedure mitigating concerns over animal rights.

Evidence suggest that maintaining residual β-cell function can improve glucose control and reduce risk of hypoglycaemia and vascular complications. Non-clinical, preclinical and some preliminary clinical data suggest that low-dose interleukin-2 (IL-2) therapy could block pancreatic β cells destruction by increasing the number of functional regulatory T cells (Tregs) that inhibit islet-specific autoreactive effector T cells (Teffs).

140,32399752,Impact of the Bayesian penalized likelihood algorithm (Q.Clear®) in comparison with the OSEM reconstruction on low contrast PET hypoxic images.,"PURPOSE
To determine the impact of the Bayesian penalized likelihood (BPL) reconstruction algorithm in comparison to OSEM on hypoxia PET/CT images of NSCLC using 18 F-MIZO and 18 F-FAZA.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
Images of low-contrasted (SBR = 3) micro-spheres of Jaszczak phantom were acquired. Twenty patients with lung neoplasia were included. Each patient benefitted from 18 F-MISO and/or 18 F-FAZA PET/CT exams, reconstructed with OSEM and BPL. Lesion was considered as hypoxic if the lesion SUV max > 1.4. A blind evaluation of lesion detectability and image quality was performed on a set of 78 randomized BPL and OSEM images by 10 nuclear physicians. SUV max , SUV mean, and hypoxic volumes using 3 thresholding approaches were measured and compared for each reconstruction.
RESULTS
The phantom and patient datasets showed a significant increase of quantitative parameters using BPL compared to OSEM but had no impact on detectability. The optimal beta parameter determined by the phantom analysis was β350. Regarding patient data, there was no clear trend of image quality improvement using BPL. There was no correlation between SUV max increase with BPL and either SUV or hypoxic volume from the initial OSEM reconstruction. Hypoxic volume obtained by a SUV > 1.4 thresholding was not impacted by the BPL reconstruction parameter.
CONCLUSION
BPL allows a significant increase in quantitative parameters and contrast without significantly improving the lesion detectability or image quality. The variation in hypoxic volume by BPL depends on the method used but SUV > 1.4 thresholding seems to be the more robust method, not impacted by the reconstruction method (BPL or OSEM).

141,32399853,"Safety, Tolerability, and Pharmacokinetics of SUVN-G3031, a Novel Histamine-3 Receptor Inverse Agonist for the Treatment of Narcolepsy, in Healthy Human Subjects Following Single and Multiple Oral Doses.","BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE
SUVN-G3031 is a novel, potent, and selective histamine-3 receptor (H 3 R) inverse agonist in development for the treatment of narcolepsy. Our objective was to characterize the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of SUVN-G3031 in healthy young adults after single and multiple doses, and to evaluate the effect of food, gender, and age on the pharmacokinetics.
METHODS
A single ascending dose (SAD) and a multiple ascending dose (MAD) study for 14 days was conducted in healthy young adults using a randomized, double-blind study design. The effect of food, gender, and age on SUVN-G3031 pharmacokinetics (6 mg as a single dose) was evaluated using an open-label, two-period, randomized, crossover design in fed and fasted states. Pharmacokinetics and safety assessments were conducted throughout the study.
RESULTS
Single doses of SUVN-G3031 up to 20 mg and multiple doses up to 6 mg once daily were found to be safe and well tolerated in healthy young adults. The most frequently reported adverse events were abnormal dreams, dyssomnia, and hot flushes. SUVN-G3031 exposure was dose proportional across the tested doses. Steady state was achieved on day 6 after once-daily dosing. Renal excretion (~ 60%) of unchanged SUVN-G3031 was the major route of elimination. Food, gender, and age did not have any clinically meaningful effect on SUVN-G3031 exposure.

142,32216456,"Long-term safety and efficacy of erenumab in patients with chronic migraine: Results from a 52-week, open-label extension study.","BACKGROUND
This study reports the long-term safety and efficacy of erenumab in chronic migraine patients.
METHODS
This was a 52-week open-label extension study of a 12-week double-blind treatment phase study. During the double-blind treatment phase, patients received placebo or once-monthly erenumab 70 mg or 140 mg. During the open-label treatment phase, the initial monthly dose was erenumab 70 mg. Following protocol amendment, patients continued to receive erenumab 70 mg if they had already completed their Week 28 visit, otherwise, patients switched from 70 mg to 140 mg; if enrolled after the amendment, patients received 140 mg monthly throughout.
RESULTS
In all, 451/609 (74.1%) enrolled patients completed the study. The exposure-adjusted patient incidence rate for any adverse event was 126.3/100 patient-years for the overall erenumab group. Overall, the adverse event profile was similar to that observed in the double-blind treatment phase. Adverse event incidence rates did not increase with long-term erenumab treatment compared with the double-blind treatment phase, and no new serious or treatment-emergent events were seen. Efficacy was sustained throughout the 52 weeks. Clinically significant reductions from double-blind treatment phase baseline (about half) were observed for monthly migraine days and migraine-specific medication days. Achievement of ≥50%, ≥75% and 100% reductions from the double-blind treatment phase baseline in monthly migraine days at Week 52 were reported by 59.0%, 33.2% and 8.9% of patients, respectively, for the combined dose group. A numerically greater benefit was observed with 140 mg compared with 70 mg at Weeks 40 and 52.
CONCLUSIONS
Sustained efficacy of long-term erenumab treatment in patients with chronic migraine is demonstrated, with safety results consistent with the known safety profile of erenumab and adverse event rates comparable to placebo adverse event rates in the double-blind treatment phase.

To describe the efficacy of tofacitinib in reducing pain in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), psoriatic arthritis (PsA) or ankylosing spondylitis (AS) in a post-hoc analysis of randomised controlled trials.
METHODS
Data were collected from patients in seven tofacitinib studies: six phase III (four RA, two PsA) and one phase II study (AS), and grouped into five analysis populations based on rheumatic disease diagnosis and category of prior inadequate response (IR) to treatment: conventional synthetic disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs-IR (RA and PsA), tumour necrosis factor inhibitors-IR (RA and PsA), or non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs-IR (AS). Only patients who received tofacitinib 5 or 10 mg twice daily or placebo were included. Pain assessments included: Patient's Assessment of Arthritis Pain, Short-Form Health Survey 36v2 Question (Q)7 and Bodily Pain domain, Ankylosing Spondylitis Quality of Life Q9 and Q14, EuroQol Five Dimensions Pain/Discomfort dimension and Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Index Q2 and Q3. Data were reported to month 6 (placebo to month 3) in the RA and PsA populations, and week 12 (tofacitinib and placebo) in the AS population.
RESULTS
Overall, 3330 patients were included in this analysis. In the RA and PsA populations, pain improvements in tofacitinib-treated patients compared with placebo were observed at the earliest time point assessed and at month 3 (maintained to month 6). In the AS population, pain improvements compared with placebo were observed at week 12.

144,32366577,The Influence of Baseline Diastolic Blood Pressure on the Effects of Intensive Blood Pressure Lowering on Cardiovascular Outcomes and All-Cause Mortality in Type 2 Diabetes.,"OBJECTIVE
To examine whether low baseline diastolic blood pressure (DBP) modifies the effects of intensive systolic blood pressure (SBP) lowering on cardiovascular outcomes in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).
RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS
The Action to Control Cardiovascular Risk in Diabetes Blood Pressure trial (ACCORD BP), a two-by-two factorial randomized controlled trial, examined effects of SBP (<120 vs. <140 mmHg) and glycemic (HbA 1c <6% vs. 7.0-7.9% [<42 vs. 53-63 mmol/mol]) control on cardiovascular events in T2DM ( N = 4,731). We examined whether effects of SBP control on cardiovascular composite were modified by baseline DBP and glycemic control.
RESULTS
Intensive SBP lowering decreased the risk of the cardiovascular composite (hazard ratio [HR] 0.76 [95% CI 0.59-0.98]) in the standard glycemic arm but not in the intensive glycemic arm (HR 1.06 [95% CI 0.81-1.40]). Spline regression models relating the effects of the intervention on the cardiovascular composite across the range of baseline DBP did not show evidence of effect modification by low baseline DBP for the cardiovascular composite in the standard or intensive glycemic arms. The relation between the effect of the intensive SBP intervention and baseline DBP was similar between glycemic arms for the cardiovascular composite three-way interaction ( P = 0.83).
CONCLUSIONS
In persons with T2DM, intensive SBP lowering decreased the risk of cardiovascular composite end point irrespective of baseline DBP in the setting of standard glycemic control. Hence, low baseline DBP should not be an impediment to intensive SBP lowering in patients with T2DM treated with guidelines recommending standard glycemic control.",2020,"The relation between the effect of the intensive SBP intervention and baseline DBP was similar between glycemic arms for the cardiovascular composite three-way interaction ( P = 0.83).

145,32379333,Association of Individual-Level Factors With Visual Outcomes in Optic Neuritis: Secondary Analysis of a Randomized Clinical Trial.,"Importance
Using corticosteroids to treat acute demyelinating optic neuritis has been identified as an area for shared decision-making. However, no analysis exists to support personalized shared decision-making that considers long- and short-term treatment benefits.
Objective
To develop models of individual-level visual outcomes for patients with optic neuritis.
Design, Setting, and Participants
This secondary analysis of the Optic Neuritis Treatment Trial (ONTT), a randomized clinical trial, was performed at 14 academic eye centers and 1 large community eye center. Adults aged 18 to 46 years with incident acute unilateral optic neuritis within 8 days of vision loss onset were included. Data were collected from July 1988 to June 1991, downloaded on October 15, 2018, and analyzed from January 24, 2019, to February 20, 2020, using multivariable linear regression modeling.
Exposures
Intravenous corticosteroids vs placebo.
Main Outcomes and Measures
Visual acuity (VA) at 1 year. Secondary outcomes were 1-year contrast sensitivity (CS) and VA and CS at 15 and 30 days. Independent variables included age, sex, race, multiple sclerosis status, optic neuritis episodes in the fellow eye, vision symptoms (days), pain, optic disc swelling, viral illness, treatment group, and baseline VA or CS.
Results
Of the 455 participants, median age was 31.8 (interquartile range [IQR], 26.3-37.0) years; 350 (76.9%) were women; and 388 (85.3%) were white. For 410 participants (90.1%) with 1-year outcomes, median VA improved from 20/66 (IQR, 20/28-20/630) at enrollment to 20/17 (IQR, 20/14-20/21) at 1 year. Baseline VA was the primary variable associated with 1-year VA (regression coefficient, 0.056 [95% CI, 0.008-0.103]; P = .02) if baseline VA was better than count fingers (CF). At 15 days, baseline VA and treatment status were associated with VA in those participants with baseline VA better than CF (regression coefficient, 0.305 [95% CI, 0.231-0.380]; F = 9.42; P < .001). However, the difference of medians (20/18 [95% CI, 20/17-20/19] with intravenous corticosteroids vs 20/23 [95% CI, 20/21-20/26] with placebo) was small for the median VA (20/66) in the trial. Treatment was not associated with 15-day or 1-year VA in participants with baseline VA of CF or worse.
Conclusions and Relevance
In this study, long-term VA was associated with severity of baseline vision loss.

146,32375747,Two faces of the same coin: a qualitative study of patients' and carers' coexistence with chronic breathlessness associated with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).,"BACKGROUND
Chronic breathlessness is a recognized clinical syndrome that severely impacts patients and carers, who become increasingly restricted in their daily activities. Often, patients become reliant on their carers, who are required to provide constant support. Although individual experiences of breathlessness have been previously investigated, there are few studies exploring contemporaneous experiences of breathlessness of the patient and their carer. This study aimed to understand the experience of severe chronic breathlessness in people with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) from the perspective of the patient and carer unit.
METHODS
A qualitative study embedded in a randomised, placebo-controlled effectiveness study (RCT) of regular, low-dose (≤32 mg/day), sustained-release morphine for chronic breathlessness associated with COPD. Recruitment occurred between July 2017 and November 2018 in one respiratory and palliative care services, in South Australia. Participants were community-dwelling patients with COPD and severe breathlessness (modified Medical Research Council scale 3 or 4) and their carers. Separate semi-structured interviews were conducted with patients and carers, recorded and transcribed verbatim. Analysis was informed by grounded theory using a constant comparative approach.
RESULTS
From the 26 patients with a carer recruited for the RCT in South Australia, nine were interviewed in their homes. Six patients were men, median age 77 years. Carers were mostly women, who were their wives (n = 6), median age 70. Five themes emerged from the data: (1) shrinking world; (2) mutual adaptation; (3) co-management; (4) emotional coping; and (5) meaning in the face of death.
CONCLUSION
Chronic breathlessness is a systemic condition that permeates all aspects of the patient's and carer's lives. Working as a team, patients and carers manage chronic breathlessness to achieve maximal function and well-being. Patients and carers share many aspects of the experience of breathlessness, but the carer seems particularly susceptible to emotional distress. Future chronic breathlessness interventions should target the patient and the carer, both together and separately to address their common and individual needs.

147,32375754,Evaluation of an internet-based intervention for service members of the German armed forces with deployment-related posttraumatic stress symptoms.,"BACKGROUND
The present study was designed to evaluate the efficacy of a therapist-guided internet-based cognitive-behavioral therapy (iCBT) intervention for service members of the German Armed Forces with posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). The iCBT was adapted from Interapy, a trauma-focused evidence-based treatment based on prolonged exposure and cognitive restructuring. It lasted for 5 weeks and included 10 writing assignments (twice a week). The program included a reminder function if assignments were overdue, but no multimedia elements. Therapeutic written feedback was provided asynchronously within one working day.
METHODS
Male active and former military service members were recruited from the German Armed Forces. Diagnoses were assessed with the Clinician-Administered PTSD Scale for DSM-5 (CAPS-5) and the Mini-International Neuropsychiatric Interview. Psychopathology was assessed at pre-treatment, post-treatment, and 3-month follow-up. Severity of PTSD was the primary outcome and anxiety was the secondary outcome. Participants were randomly allocated to a treatment group that received iCBT immediately or to a waitlist group that received iCBT after 6 weeks. Due to the overall small sample size (n = 37), the two groups were collapsed for the statistical analyses. Change during the intervention period was investigated using latent-change score models.
RESULTS
Improvements in the CAPS-5 were small and not statistically significant. For anxiety, small significant improvements were observed from pre- to follow-up assessment. The dropout rate was 32.3%.
CONCLUSIONS
The low treatment utilization and the high dropout rate are in line with previous findings on treatment of service members. The interpretation of the current null results for the efficacy of iCBT is limited due to the small sample size, however for military samples effect estimates were also smaller in other recent studies. Our results demonstrate the need to identify factors influencing treatment engagement and efficacy in veterans.

148,32376754,"Prospective, single-centre, randomised controlled trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ischaemia-free liver transplantation (IFLT) in the treatment of end-stage liver disease.","INTRODUCTION
During conventional liver transplantation (CLT), ischaemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) is inevitable and is associated with complications such as early allograft dysfunction (EAD), primary non-function and ischaemic-type biliary lesions. We have established a novel procedure called ischaemia-free liver transplantation (IFLT). The results from a pilot study suggest that IFLT might prevent IRI and yield better transplant outcomes than CLT. The purpose of this study was to further assess the efficacy and safety of IFLT versus CLT in patients with end-stage liver disease.
METHODS AND ANALYSIS
This is an investigator-initiated, open-label, phase III, prospective, single-centre randomised controlled trial on the effects of IFLT in patients with end-stage liver disease. Adult patients (aged 18-75 years) eligible for liver transplantation will be screened for participation in this trial and will be randomised between the IFLT group (n=34) and the CLT group (n=34). In the IFLT group, the donor liver will be procured, preserved and implanted with continuous normothermic machine perfusion (NMP). In the CLT group, the donor liver will be procured after a fast cold flush, preserved in 0°C-4°C solution and implanted under hypothermic and hypoxic conditions. Patients in both groups will be managed according to the standard protocol of our centre. The primary end point is the incidence of EAD after liver transplantation. Intraoperative and postoperative parameters of donor livers and recipients will be observed and recorded, and postoperative liver graft function, complications and recipient and graft survival will be evaluated. After a 12-month follow-up of the last enrolled recipient, the outcomes will be analysed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of IFLT versus CLT in patients with end-stage liver disease.
ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION
The protocol was reviewed and approved by the Ethics Committee of The First Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University. The findings will be disseminated to the public through conference presentations and peer-reviewed scientific journals.

149,32380132,Is a two-step impression mandatory for complete denture fabrication on the severely resorbed mandible? A randomized trial on patient perception and denture quality.,"OBJECTIVES
To evaluate the effectiveness of CCDs produced by two impression procedures for the mandibular ridge, in patients with severe mandibular atrophy.
METHODS
Fifty-two completely edentulous patients with severely resorbed mandibles were randomly allocated into two groups according to the impression procedure of the mandibular ridge: SI - single impression (stock tray and irreversible hydrocolloid); TI - two-step impression (custom tray, border molding with compound, and polyether). Assessments of oral health related quality of life (OHRQoL, primary outcome) and denture satisfaction were performed by using validated questionnaires. Denture quality was evaluated by means of functional tests.
RESULTS
Regardless of the technique, participants reported better OHRQoL (P < 0.001) in both follow-up periods (3 and 6 months after denture delivery), and groups resulted in similar OHIP-EDENT scores in its different domains (P > 0.05). Between-group differences were insignificant for general satisfaction (3 months, P = 0.699, 6 months, P = 0.392), as well as for aspects such as esthetics, comfort, mastication, speech, and prosthesis retention (P > 0.05). Overall clinical quality of the CCDs (P = 0.383) was similar between-group, as well as in specific aspects - interocclusal distance, occlusion, articulation, retention of the maxillary denture, and stability of both maxillary and mandibular dentures (P > 0.05).
CONCLUSIONS
Mandibular CCDs based on a single impression technique showed quality levels comparable to those generated by a two-step impression, both from the patient and clinician perspective.
CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE
A simplified impression technique which eliminates the secondary impression can provide CCDs of good clinical quality, which influences the OHRQoL, and satisfaction in the same extent they would by a two-step procedure, even for patients with severely reabsorbed mandibular ridges.

150,32380509,Role of feeding strategy bundle with acid-suppressive therapy in infants with esophageal acid reflux exposure: a randomized controlled trial.,"OBJECTIVE
To test the hypothesis that a feeding bundle concurrent with acid suppression is superior to acid suppression alone in improving gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) attributed-symptom scores and feeding outcomes in neonatal ICU infants.
METHODS
Infants (N = 76) between 34 and 60 weeks' postmenstrual age with acid reflux index > 3% were randomly allocated to study (acid-suppressive therapy + feeding bundle) or conventional (acid-suppressive therapy only) arms for 4 weeks. Feeding bundle included: total fluid volume < 140 mL/kg/day, fed over 30 min in right lateral position, and supine postprandial position. Primary outcome was independent oral feeding and/or ≥6-point decrease in symptom score (I-GERQ-R). Secondary outcomes included growth (weight, length, head circumference), length of hospital stay (LOHS, days), airway (oxygen at discharge), and developmental (Bayley scores) milestones.
RESULTS
Of 688 screened: 76 infants were randomized and used for the primary outcome as intent-to-treat, and secondary outcomes analyzed for 72 infants (N = 35 conventional, N = 37 study). For study vs. conventional groups, respectively: (a) 33% (95% CI, 19-49%) vs. 44% (95% CI, 28-62%), P = 0.28 achieved primary outcome success, and (b) secondary outcomes did not significantly differ (P > 0.05).
CONCLUSIONS
Feeding strategy modifications concurrent with acid suppression are not superior to PPI alone in improving GERD symptoms or discharge feeding, short-term and long-term outcomes.
IMPACT
Conservative feeding therapies are thought to modify GERD symptoms and its consequences. However, in this randomized controlled trial in convalescing neonatal ICU infants with GERD symptoms, when controlling for preterm or full-term birth and severity of esophageal acid reflux index, the effectiveness of acid suppression plus a feeding modification bundle (volume restriction, intra- and postprandial body positions, and prolonged feeding periods) vs. acid suppression alone, administered over a 4-week period was not superior in improving symptom scores or feeding outcomes.Restrictive feeding strategies are of no impact in modifying GERD symptoms or clinically meaningful outcomes. Further studies are needed to define true GERD and to identify effective therapies in modifying pathophysiology and outcomes.The improvement in symptoms and feeding outcomes over time irrespective of feeding modifications may suggest a maturational effect. This study justifies the use of placebo-controlled randomized clinical trial among NICU infants with objectively defined GERD.",2020,"CONCLUSIONS
Feeding strategy modifications concurrent with acid suppression are not superior to PPI alone in improving GERD symptoms or discharge feeding, short-term and long-term outcomes.

151,31233972,Stigma towards people who use drugs: A case vignette study in methadone maintenance treatment clinics in China.,"BACKGROUND
Drug use stigma among service providers has been recognized as a barrier to improving the accessibility and outcomes of addiction treatment. This study examined the stigmatizing attitudes towards people who use drugs (PWUD) among service providers in methadone maintenance treatment (MMT) clinics in China and its associated factors.
METHODS
The cross-sectional study used the baseline data of a randomized intervention trial conducted in China, and the data were collected from January 2012 to August 2013. A total of 418 MMT service providers were included in the study. Stigma towards PWUD was measured via a 10-item scale embedded in two case vignettes (PWUD and non-PWUD). The Wilcoxon signed-rank test was performed to evaluate the vignette difference for each item of the scale. The linear mixed model was used to identify the adjusted association between drug use stigma and other interested variables including demographics, professional background, and MMT knowledge of the service providers.
RESULTS
The Wilcoxon signed-rank tests showed that the participants had a higher level of stigmatizing attitudes towards PWUD than non-PWUD (p-value<0.001 for all items of the stigma scale). The linear mixed model identified that the reception of national MMT training was associated with a lower degree of drug use stigma (estimate=-1.79; 95% CI: -3.13, -0.45; p-value = 0.009).
CONCLUSION
The findings of the study provide evidence of the existence of drug use stigma among MMT providers in China. The expansion of national-level training and the development of stigma reduction interventions are needed to address this issue.",2019,The Wilcoxon signed-rank tests showed that the participants had a higher level of stigmatizing attitudes towards PWUD than non-PWUD (p-value<0.001 for all items of the stigma scale).,"['MMT providers in China', '418 MMT service providers were included in the study', 'China, and the data were collected from January 2012 to August 2013', 'stigmatizing attitudes towards people who use drugs (PWUD) among service providers in methadone maintenance treatment (MMT) clinics in China and its associated factors', 'methadone maintenance treatment clinics in China']",[],['Stigma towards PWUD'],"[{'cui': 'C0024501', 'cui_str': 'Maintenance'}, {'cui': 'C0039798', 'cui_str': 'therapy'}, {'cui': 'C0008115', 'cui_str': 'China'}, {'cui': 'C0557854', 'cui_str': 'Services'}, {'cui': 'C0332257', 'cui_str': 'Including'}, {'cui': 'C0008972', 'cui_str': 'Clinical Study'}, {'cui': 'C0004271', 'cui_str': 'Attitude'}, {'cui': 'C0027361', 'cui_str': 'Person'}, {'cui': 'C0449889', 'cui_str': 'Drug used'}, {'cui': 'C0588202', 'cui_str': 'Drug addiction therapy - methadone'}, {'cui': 'C0002424', 'cui_str': 'Ambulatory care site'}]",[],"[{'cui': 'C0277787', 'cui_str': 'Stigma'}, {'cui': 'C0027361', 'cui_str': 'Person'}, {'cui': 'C0449889', 'cui_str': 'Drug used'}]",,0.0364637,The Wilcoxon signed-rank tests showed that the participants had a higher level of stigmatizing attitudes towards PWUD than non-PWUD (p-value<0.001 for all items of the stigma scale).,"[{'ForeName': 'Sitong', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Luo', 'Affiliation': 'Semel Institute for Neuroscience and Human Behavior, Center for Community Health, University of California, Los Angeles, 10920 Wilshire Blvd., Suite 350, Los Angeles, CA 90024, USA.

152,30778865,Estimating Quality of Life Decrements Due to Diabetes Complications in the United States: The Health Utility Index (HUI) Diabetes Complication Equation.,"OBJECTIVE
Health utility decrements associated with diabetes mellitus complications are essential for calculating quality-adjusted life-years (QALYs) in patients for use in economic evaluation of diabetes interventions. Previous studies mostly focused on assessing the impact of complications on health utility at event year based on cross-sectional data. This study aimed to separately estimate health utility decrements associated with current and previous diabetes complications.
RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS
The Health Utilities Index Mark 3 (HUI-3) was used to measure heath utility in the Action to Control Cardiovascular Risk in Diabetes (ACCORD) trial (N = 8713). Five macrovascular complications (myocardial infarction [MI], congestive heart failure [CHF], stroke, angina, and revascularization surgery [RS]) and three microvascular complications (nephropathy [renal failure], retinopathy [severe vision loss], and neuropathy [severe pressure sensation loss]) were included in a set of alternative modelling approaches including the ordinary least squares (OLS) model, fixed effects model, and random effects model to estimate the complication-related health utility decrements.
RESULTS
All macrovascular complications were associated with decrements of HUI-3 scores: MI (event year: - 0.042, successive years: - 0.011), CHF (event year: - 0.089, successive years: - 0.041), stroke (event year: - 0.204, successive years: - 0.101), angina (event year: - 0.010, successive years: - 0.032), and revascularization (event year: - 0.038, successive years: - 0.016) (all p < 0.05). For microvascular complications, severe vision loss (- 0.057), and severe pressure sensation loss (- 0.066) were significantly associated with decrements of HUI-3 scores (both p < 0.05). Hypoglycemia (both severe and symptomatic) was found to be associated with a 0.036 decrement of health utility at event year, and a 0.033 decrement of health utility at successive years. Results from an OLS model are preferred for supporting a microsimulation model while a fixed effects model is preferred to describe direct health impacts from complications.
CONCLUSIONS
Macrovascular and microvascular complications caused QALY decrements in patients with type 2 diabetes. While only part of the total impaired QALY is experienced during the event year, further QALY decrements for successive years were quite substantial.",2019,"Hypoglycemia (both severe and symptomatic) was found to be associated with a 0.036 decrement of health utility at event year, and a 0.033 decrement of health utility at successive years.",['patients with type 2 diabetes'],[],"['Hypoglycemia', 'HUI-3 scores', 'severe pressure sensation loss', 'microvascular complications, severe vision loss', 'CHF', 'All macrovascular complications', 'health utility', 'ordinary least squares (OLS) model, fixed effects model, and random effects model to estimate the complication-related health utility decrements', 'Five macrovascular complications (myocardial infarction [MI], congestive heart failure [CHF], stroke, angina, and revascularization surgery [RS]) and three microvascular complications (nephropathy [renal failure], retinopathy [severe vision loss], and neuropathy [severe pressure sensation loss', 'HUI-3 scores: MI']","[{'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patient'}, {'cui': 'C0332307', 'cui_str': 'Type - attribute'}]",[],"[{'cui': 'C0020615', 'cui_str': 'Hypoglycemia'}, {'cui': 'C0018684', 'cui_str': 'Health'}, {'cui': 'C0600653', 'cui_str': 'Indexes'}, {'cui': 'C0522501', 'cui_str': 'Massive'}, {'cui': 'C0449820', 'cui_str': 'Score'}, {'cui': 'C0205082', 'cui_str': 'Severe'}, {'cui': 'C0234222', 'cui_str': 'Baresthesia'}, {'cui': 'C0443258', 'cui_str': 'Microvascular'}, {'cui': 'C0009566', 'cui_str': 'Complication'}, {'cui': 'C1301509', 'cui_str': 'Severe visual impairment'}, {'cui': 'C0018802', 'cui_str': 'Congestive heart failure'}, {'cui': 'C0023189', 'cui_str': 'Analysis, Least-Squares'}, {'cui': 'C0026339', 'cui_str': 'Biological Models'}, {'cui': 'C0443218', 'cui_str': 'Fixed'}, {'cui': 'C1280500', 'cui_str': 'Effect'}, {'cui': 'C0034656', 'cui_str': 'Randomization'}, {'cui': 'C0750572', 'cui_str': 'Estimated'}, {'cui': 'C0439849', 'cui_str': 'Relationships'}, {'cui': 'C0027051', 'cui_str': 'Myocardial infarction'}, {'cui': 'C0038454', 'cui_str': 'Cerebrovascular accident'}, {'cui': 'C0002962', 'cui_str': 'Angina pectoris'}, {'cui': 'C0581603', 'cui_str': 'Revascularization - action'}, {'cui': 'C0022658', 'cui_str': 'Kidney disease'}, {'cui': 'C0035078', 'cui_str': 'Renal insufficiency'}, {'cui': 'C0035309', 'cui_str': 'Retinal disorder'}, {'cui': 'C0442874', 'cui_str': 'Neuropathy'}]",,0.0222959,"Hypoglycemia (both severe and symptomatic) was found to be associated with a 0.036 decrement of health utility at event year, and a 0.033 decrement of health utility at successive years.","[{'ForeName': 'Hui', 'Initials': 'H', 'LastName': 'Shao', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Health Policy and Management, School of Public Health and Tropical Medicine, Tulane University, 1440 Canal Street, Suite 1900, New Orleans, LA, 70112, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Shuang', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Yang', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Health Policy and Management, School of Public Health and Tropical Medicine, Tulane University, 1440 Canal Street, Suite 1900, New Orleans, LA, 70112, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Vivian', 'Initials': 'V', 'LastName': 'Fonseca', 'Affiliation': 'School of Medicine, Tulane University, New Orleans, LA, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Charles', 'Initials': 'C', 'LastName': 'Stoecker', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Health Policy and Management, School of Public Health and Tropical Medicine, Tulane University, 1440 Canal Street, Suite 1900, New Orleans, LA, 70112, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Lizheng', 'Initials': 'L', 'LastName': 'Shi', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Health Policy and Management, School of Public Health and Tropical Medicine, Tulane University, 1440 Canal Street, Suite 1900, New Orleans, LA, 70112, USA. lshi1@tulane.edu.'}]",PharmacoEconomics,['10.1007/s40273-019-00775-8']

154,32384874,Serum level of IL-1ra was associated with the treatment of latent tuberculosis infection in a Chinese population.,"BACKGROUND
Dynamically changed levels of serum cytokines might predict the development of active TB from latent tuberculosis infection (LTBI) and monitor preventive treatment effectiveness. The aim of the study was to identify potential serum cytokines associated with LTBI treatment which might predict active disease development in a Chinese population.
METHODS
Based on a randomized controlled trial aiming to explore short-course regimens for LTBI treatment, the dynamic changes of serum cytokines determined by bead-based multiplex assays were investigated for the participants who developed active TB during follow-up and age and gender matched controls stayed healthy.
RESULTS
Totally, 21 patients diagnosed with active tuberculosis (TB) during the 2-year follow-up (12 from treated groups and 9 from untreated controls) and 42 age and gender matched healthy controls (24 from treated groups and 18 from untreated controls) were included in the study. Before treatment, serum IL-1ra was statistically higher among those who developed active disease during follow-up as compared with those stayed healthy. As for treated participants, the levels of IL-1ra were significantly lower after treatment in comparison with those before treatment both in active TB group (p = 0.002) and non-TB group (p = 0.009). For untreated participants, the levels of IL-1ra were not statistically different between different time points both in active TB group (p = 0.078) and non-TB group (p = 0.265).
CONCLUSION
Our results suggested that declined serum level of IL-1ra was associated with LTBI treatment. Further studies are needed to verify whether it could be used to evaluate LTBI treatment and to predict active disease development.",2020,"For untreated participants, the levels of IL-1ra were not statistically different between different time points both in active TB group (p = 0.078) and non-TB group (p = 0.265).

155,32390720,Effects of an Impulse Frequency Dependent 10-Week Whole-body Electromyostimulation Training Program on Specific Sport Performance Parameters.,"The difference in the efficacy of altered stimulation parameters in whole-body-electromyostimulation (WB-EMS) training remains largely unexplored. However, higher impulse frequencies (>50 Hz) might be most adequate for strength gain. The aim of this study was to analyze potential differences in sports-related performance parameters after a 10-week WB-EMS training with different frequencies. A total of 51 untrained participants (24.9 ± 3.9 years, 174 ± 9 cm, 72.4 ± 16.4 kg, BMI 23.8 ± 4.1, body fat 24.7 ± 8.1 %) was randomly divided into three groups: one inactive control group (CON) and two training groups. They completed a 10-week WB-EMS program of 1.5 sessions/week, equal content but different stimulation frequencies (training with 20 Hz (T20) vs. training with 85 Hz (T85)). Before and after intervention, all participants completed jumping (Counter Movement Jump (CMJ), Squat Jump (SJ), Drop Jump (DJ)), sprinting (5m, 10m, 30m), and strength tests (isometric trunk flexion/extension). One-way ANOVA was applied to calculate parameter changes. Post-hoc least significant difference tests were performed to identify group differences. Significant differences were identified for CMJ (p = 0.007), SJ (p = 0.022), trunk flexion (p = 0.020) and extension (p=.013) with significant group differences between both training groups and CON (not between the two training groups T20 and T85). A 10-week WB-EMS training leads to significant improvements of jump and strength parameters in untrained participants. No differences could be detected between the frequencies. Therefore, both stimulation frequencies can be regarded as adequate for increasing specific sport performance parameters. Further aspects as regeneration or long term effects by the use of different frequencies still need to be clarified.",2020,"Significant differences were identified for CMJ (p = 0.007), SJ (p = 0.022), trunk flexion (p = 0.020) and extension (p=.013) with significant group differences between both training groups and CON (not between the two training groups T20 and T85).","['51 untrained participants (24.9 ± 3.9 years, 174 ± 9 cm, 72.4 ± 16.4 kg, BMI 23.8 ± 4.1, body fat 24.7 ± 8.1 ', 'untrained participants']","['inactive control group (CON', 'Impulse Frequency Dependent 10-Week Whole-body Electromyostimulation Training Program', 'jumping (Counter Movement Jump (CMJ), Squat Jump (SJ), Drop Jump (DJ']","['trunk flexion', 'Specific Sport Performance Parameters', 'jump and strength parameters']","[{'cui': 'C4517698', 'cui_str': '3.9'}, {'cui': 'C0439234', 'cui_str': 'year'}, {'cui': 'C4517604', 'cui_str': '174'}, {'cui': 'C0005893', 'cui_str': 'Body mass index'}, {'cui': 'C4517756', 'cui_str': '4.1'}, {'cui': 'C0001527', 'cui_str': 'Adipose tissue'}, {'cui': 'C4517875', 'cui_str': '8.1'}]","[{'cui': 'C0205254', 'cui_str': 'Inactive'}, {'cui': 'C0009932', 'cui_str': 'Control Groups'}, {'cui': 'C0443235', 'cui_str': 'Impulse'}, {'cui': 'C0237630', 'cui_str': 'Stimulus frequency'}, {'cui': 'C0429964', 'cui_str': 'Dependent for dressing'}, {'cui': 'C0439230', 'cui_str': 'week'}, {'cui': 'C0229960', 'cui_str': 'Entire body as a whole'}, {'cui': 'C0040607', 'cui_str': 'Training Programs'}, {'cui': 'C0221189', 'cui_str': 'Jumping'}, {'cui': 'C0677601', 'cui_str': 'Counter'}, {'cui': 'C0026649', 'cui_str': 'Movement'}, {'cui': 'C0241236', 'cui_str': 'Does squat'}, {'cui': 'C1321095', 'cui_str': 'Drop - unit of product usage'}]","[{'cui': 'C0460005', 'cui_str': 'Trunk structure'}, {'cui': 'C0231452', 'cui_str': 'Flexion'}, {'cui': 'C0205369', 'cui_str': 'Specific'}, {'cui': 'C0871966', 'cui_str': 'Sports Performance'}, {'cui': 'C0449381', 'cui_str': 'Observation parameter'}, {'cui': 'C0221189', 'cui_str': 'Jumping'}]",51.0,0.012783,"Significant differences were identified for CMJ (p = 0.007), SJ (p = 0.022), trunk flexion (p = 0.020) and extension (p=.013) with significant group differences between both training groups and CON (not between the two training groups T20 and T85).","[{'ForeName': 'Joshua', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Berger', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Sports Science, Technische Universität Kaiserslautern, Kaiserslautern, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Oliver', 'Initials': 'O', 'LastName': 'Ludwig', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Sports Science, Technische Universität Kaiserslautern, Kaiserslautern, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Stephan', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Becker', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Sports Science, Technische Universität Kaiserslautern, Kaiserslautern, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Marco', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Backfisch', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Sports Science, Technische Universität Kaiserslautern, Kaiserslautern, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Wolfgang', 'Initials': 'W', 'LastName': 'Kemmler', 'Affiliation': 'Institute of Medical Physics, Friedrich-Alexander University of Erlangen, Erlangen, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Michael', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Fröhlich', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Sports Science, Technische Universität Kaiserslautern, Kaiserslautern, Germany.'}]",Journal of sports science & medicine,[]
156,32390721,Acute Maltodextrin Supplementation During Resistance Exercise.,"Most of the research investigating the ergogenic enhancing mechanisms of carbohydrate have been conducted using aerobic based exercise. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of pre-exercise maltodextrin ingestion on resistance exercise performance, serum insulin, epinephrine, glucose, and muscle glycogen concentrations. In a double blind, cross over, repeated measures design, participants completed four sets to failure at 70% of 1-RM with 45s rest on the angled leg press with or without pre-exercise maltodextrin (2g/kg) after a 3hr fast. Serum glucose, epinephrine, and insulin were assessed at baseline, 30 min post-ingestion, immediately after, and 1hr post-exercise with or without carbohydrate supplementation. Muscle glycogen was assessed from biopsy specimens sampled from the vastus lateralis before supplementation, immediately after exercise, and 1hr post exercise under both conditions. There was no main effect of supplement on resistance exercise performance (p = 0.18). Muscle glycogen concentration decreased across time for both groups (p < 0.001). There was an interaction in serum glucose decreasing more during exercise in the carbohydrate condition (p = 0.026). An interaction occurred showing insulin decreased during exercise in the carbohydrate condition (p = 0.003). Also, there was a main effect of insulin being elevated with carbohydrate consumption (p = 0.027). Epinephrine was decreased across all time points after carbohydrate ingestion (p = 0.023). Carbohydrate supplementation before resistance exercise did not improve leg press performance to fatigue despite increased metabolic substrate availability. These results indicate that pre-exercise dietary carbohydrate will be utilized preferentially during exercise due to decreased epinephrine, decreased serum glucose, and increased insulin concentrations. However, the increases in glycolytic substrate availability will not increase exercise performance or glycogen content following 1hr of recovery.",2020,There was an interaction in serum glucose decreasing more during exercise in the carbohydrate condition (p = 0.026).,[],"['Epinephrine', 'Carbohydrate supplementation before resistance exercise', '1-RM with 45s rest on the angled leg press with or without pre-exercise maltodextrin', 'pre-exercise maltodextrin ingestion', 'Acute Maltodextrin Supplementation']","['resistance exercise performance', 'Muscle glycogen', 'serum glucose', 'resistance exercise performance, serum insulin, epinephrine, glucose, and muscle glycogen concentrations', 'exercise performance or glycogen content', 'serum glucose, and increased insulin concentrations', 'Muscle glycogen concentration', 'Serum glucose, epinephrine, and insulin']",[],"[{'cui': 'C0014563', 'cui_str': 'Epinephrine'}, {'cui': 'C0556103', 'cui_str': 'Carbohydrate supplementation'}, {'cui': 'C0162535', 'cui_str': 'Electrical Resistance'}, {'cui': 'C0015259', 'cui_str': 'Exercise'}, {'cui': 'C0035253', 'cui_str': 'Rest'}, {'cui': 'C0205143', 'cui_str': 'Angular'}, {'cui': 'C0023216', 'cui_str': 'Lower limb structure'}, {'cui': 'C0032952', 'cui_str': 'Prednisone'}, {'cui': 'C0065601', 'cui_str': 'maltodextrin'}, {'cui': 'C0232478', 'cui_str': 'Ingestion'}, {'cui': 'C0205178', 'cui_str': 'Acuteness'}, {'cui': 'C0242297', 'cui_str': 'Nutritional supplementation'}]","[{'cui': 'C0162535', 'cui_str': 'Electrical Resistance'}, {'cui': 'C0015259', 'cui_str': 'Exercise'}, {'cui': 'C0026845', 'cui_str': 'Muscle tissue'}, {'cui': 'C0017911', 'cui_str': 'Glycogen'}, {'cui': 'C0202041', 'cui_str': 'Glucose measurement, serum'}, {'cui': 'C0428357', 'cui_str': 'Serum insulin measurement'}, {'cui': 'C0014563', 'cui_str': 'Epinephrine'}, {'cui': 'C0017725', 'cui_str': 'Glucose'}, {'cui': 'C0004268', 'cui_str': 'Attention'}, {'cui': 'C0423896', 'cui_str': 'Feeling content'}, {'cui': 'C0020459', 'cui_str': 'Hyperinsulinism'}, {'cui': 'C0021641', 'cui_str': 'Insulin'}]",,0.109494,There was an interaction in serum glucose decreasing more during exercise in the carbohydrate condition (p = 0.026).,"[{'ForeName': 'Dylan T', 'Initials': 'DT', 'LastName': 'Wilburn', 'Affiliation': 'Exercise and Biochemical Nutrition Laboratory, Department of Health, Human Performance, and Recreation, Baylor University, Baylor University, Waco, TX USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Steven B', 'Initials': 'SB', 'LastName': 'Machek', 'Affiliation': 'Exercise and Biochemical Nutrition Laboratory, Department of Health, Human Performance, and Recreation, Baylor University, Baylor University, Waco, TX USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Thomas D', 'Initials': 'TD', 'LastName': 'Cardaci', 'Affiliation': 'Exercise and Biochemical Nutrition Laboratory, Department of Health, Human Performance, and Recreation, Baylor University, Baylor University, Waco, TX USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Paul S', 'Initials': 'PS', 'LastName': 'Hwang', 'Affiliation': 'Exercise and Biochemical Nutrition Laboratory, Department of Health, Human Performance, and Recreation, Baylor University, Baylor University, Waco, TX USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Darryn S', 'Initials': 'DS', 'LastName': 'Willoughby', 'Affiliation': 'Exercise and Biochemical Nutrition Laboratory, Department of Health, Human Performance, and Recreation, Baylor University, Baylor University, Waco, TX USA.'}]",Journal of sports science & medicine,[]
157,32390724,One Session of Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy-Induced Modulation on Tendon Shear Modulus is Associated with Reduction in Pain.,"The aim of the study was to examine the immediate effect of 1 session of extracorporeal shockwave therapy (ESWT) on patellar tendon stiffness and to explore the relationship between the change in tendon stiffness and the pain intensity. Thirty-four male athletes aged 22.2 ± 3.8 with patellar tendinopathy were recruited. The participants were randomized into ESWT and sham groups. The ESWT group received 1500 impulses of ESWT at 4 Hz with maximal tolerable pain intensity and the sham group received intensities below 0.08 mJ/mm 2 . Supersonic Shearwave Imaging (SSI) was used to measure tendon shear modulus (an index of tissue stiffness), and a visual analogue scale was used to quantify the pain intensity during compression with 10 lb (4.535 kg) pressure directed on the most tender part and then during a single-leg declined-squat test. A significant reduction in tendon shear modulus (from 57.4 ± 25.5 kPa to 40.6 ± 17.6kPa, p = 0.001) was detected in the ESWT receiving ESWT with an intensity from 0.13-0.33 mJ/mm 2 but not the sham group (from 47.7 ± 17.1 kPa to 41.0 ± 12.7 kPa; p = 0.06).

Twenty-one strength trained females (age = 23.4 ± 2.2 years, body mass = 52.3 ± 6.7 kg), with a minimum one year of strength training experience took part in the study. The experiment was conducted following a randomized crossover design, where each participant completed the 1RM test in the BP with three different duration times of the ECC movement: 2/0/X, 4/0/X, 6/0/X. Concentric (CON) movement was performed with maximal velocity (X). The ANOVA with repeated measures were used to compare the differences between the analyzed variables. The results of the study indicated the maximal load in the 1RM test was significantly higher during the BP with the 2/0/X tempo compared to 6/0/X (p < 0.01) and 4/0/X tempos (p < 0.01). Therefore, the results indicated that the longer the duration of the ECC phase of movement, the greater the decrease in the result of the 1RM test.

159,32379763,Cost-Effectiveness of ramucirumab plus paclitaxel as a second-line therapy for advanced gastric or gastro-oesophageal cancer in China.,"AIM
That clinical trial (RAINBOW) showed that a 7.4 months overall survival benefit with the combination therapy with ramucirumab (RAM) and paclitaxel (PAC) as second-line therapy for patients with recurrent or metastatic gastric or gastro-oesophageal junction adenocarcinoma, compared with placebo (PLA) plus paclitaxel. We performed an analysis to assess the cost-effectiveness of RAM from a Chinese perspective and recognized the range of drug costs.
METHODS
By building a Markov model to estimate quality-adjusted life-years (QALYs), life-years (LYs) and lifetime costs. Transition probabilities, costs and utilities were estimated for the published literature, Chinese health care system and local price setting. We performed threshold analyses and probabilistic sensitivity analyses to evaluate the uncertainty of the model.
RESULTS
Compared with PLA strategy, RAM strategy provided an incremental survival benefit of 1.22 LYs and 0.64 QALYs. The probabilistic sensitivity analysis showed that when RAM costs less than $151 or $753 per 4 weeks, the incremental cost-effectiveness ratio (ICER) approximated the willingness-to-pay threshold (WTP), suggesting that there was 50% likelihood that the ICER for RAM + PAC would be less than $44528.4 per QALY or $48121 per QALY, respectively.

160,32379766,Nocebo hyperalgesia can be induced by classical conditioning without involvement of expectancy.,"Influential theoretical accounts take the position that classical conditioning can induce placebo effects through conscious expectancies. In the current study two different conditioning procedures (hidden and open) were used to separate expectancy from conditioning in order to reveal the role of expectancy in the formation of nocebo hyperalgesia. Eighty-seven healthy females were randomly assigned to three groups (hidden conditioning, open conditioning, and control). Participants were selected according to the Fear of Pain Questionnaire scores and assigned to two subgroups: high and low level of fear of pain (trait). They received electrocutaneous pain stimuli preceded by either an orange or blue color. During the conditioning phase, one color was paired with pain stimuli of moderate intensity (control stimuli) and the other color was paired with pain stimuli of high intensity (nocebo stimuli) in both hidden and open conditioning groups. Only participants in the open conditioning group were informed about this association, however just before the testing phase the expectancy of hyperalgesia induced in this way was withdrawn. In the control group, both colors were followed by control pain stimuli. During the testing phase all participants received a series of stimuli of the same intensity, regardless of the preceding color. Participants rated pain intensity, expectancy of pain intensity and fear (state). We found that nocebo hyperalgesia was induced by hidden rather than open conditioning. The hidden conditioning procedure did not produce conscious expectancies related to pain. Nocebo hyperalgesia was induced in participants with low and high fear of pain and there was no difference in the magnitude of the nocebo effect between both groups.

161,32379777,Transplacental transfer of glyburide in women with gestational diabetes and neonatal hypoglycemia risk.,"BACKGROUND
In pregnant women with gestational diabetes, glyburide can be an alternative to insulin despite concerns about its transplacental transfer. However, transplacental transfer of glyburide is poorly quantified and the relationship between cord blood glyburide concentration and hypoglycemia has not been studied. Our objective was to quantify the transplacental transfer of glyburide at delivery and to study the association between the cord blood glyburide concentration and the risk of neonatal hypoglycemia in patients with gestational diabetes treated with glyburide.
METHODS AND FINDINGS
INDAO was a multicenter, noninferiority, randomized trial conducted between May 2012 and November 2016 in 914 women with singleton pregnancies and gestational diabetes. An ancillary study was conducted in the 87 patients of the Bicêtre University Hospital Center. The sample consisted of 46 patients with utilizable assays at delivery. The relationships between glyburide concentration and the time since the last intake of glyburide and between fetal glyburide concentration and neonatal hypoglycemia were modeled with linear or logistic regressions using fractional polynomials. There was placental transfer of glyburide at a fetal to maternal ratio of 62% (95% CI [50; 74]). Umbilical cord blood glyburide concentration decreased steeply after the last maternal glyburide intake. After 24 hours, the mean umbilical cord blood concentration was less than 5 ng/mL. Neonatal hypoglycemia risk was increased with an odds ratio of hypoglycemia equal to 3.70 [1.40-9.77] for each 10 ng/mL increase in the cord blood glyburide concentration. However, no newborns were admitted to the NICU because of clinical signs of hypoglycemia or for treatment of hypoglycemia.
CONCLUSION
Considering that neonatal glyburide exposure may be limited by stopping treatment a sufficient time before labor, there may still be a place for glyburide in the management of gestational diabetes.",2020,"After 24 hours, the mean umbilical cord blood concentration was less than 5 ng/mL.

162,32384122,Improved residual fat malabsorption and growth in children with cystic fibrosis treated with a novel oral structured lipid supplement: A randomized controlled trial.,"BACKGROUND
In the primary analysis of a 12-month double-blind randomized active placebo-controlled trial, treatment of children with cystic fibrosis (CF) and pancreatic insufficiency (PI) with a readily absorbable structured lipid (Encala™, Envara Health, Wayne, PA) was safe, well-tolerated and improved dietary fat absorption (stool coefficient of fat absorption [CFA]), growth, and plasma fatty acids (FA).
OBJECTIVE
To determine if the Encala™ treatment effect varied by severity of baseline fat malabsorption.
METHODS
Subjects (n = 66, 10.5±3.0 yrs, 39% female) with baseline CFA who completed a three-month treatment with Encala™ or a calorie and macronutrient-matched placebo were included in this subgroup analysis. Subjects were categorized by median baseline CFA: low CFA (<88%) and high CFA (≥88%). At baseline and 3-month evaluations, CFA (72-hour stool, weighed food record) and height (HAZ), weight (WAZ) and BMI (BMIZ) Z-scores were calculated. Fasting plasma fatty acid (FA) concentrations were also measured.
RESULTS
Subjects in the low CFA subgroup had significantly improved CFA (+7.5±7.2%, mean 86.3±6.7, p = 0.002), and reduced stool fat loss (-5.7±7.2 g/24 hours) following three months of EncalaTM treatment. These subjects also had increased plasma linoleic acid (+20%), α-linolenic acid (+56%), and total FA (+20%) (p≤0.005 for all) concentrations and improvements in HAZ (0.06±0.08), WAZ (0.17±0.16), and BMIZ (0.20±0.25) (p≤0.002 for all). CFA and FA were unchanged with placebo in the low CFA group, with some WAZ increases (0.14±0.24, p = 0.02). High CFA subjects (both placebo and Encala™ groups) had improvements in WAZ and some FA.
CONCLUSIONS
Subjects with CF, PI and more severe fat malabsorption experienced greater improvements in CFA, FA and growth after three months of Encala™ treatment.

163,32385134,Levetiracetam Versus Phenobarbital for Neonatal Seizures: A Randomized Controlled Trial.,"BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES
There are no US Food and Drug Administration-approved therapies for neonatal seizures. Phenobarbital and phenytoin frequently fail to control seizures. There are concerns about the safety of seizure medications in the developing brain. Levetiracetam has proven efficacy and an excellent safety profile in older patients; therefore, there is great interest in its use in neonates. However, randomized studies have not been performed. Our objectives were to study the efficacy and safety of levetiracetam compared with phenobarbital as a first-line treatment of neonatal seizures.
METHODS
The study was a multicenter, randomized, blinded, controlled, phase IIb trial investigating the efficacy and safety of levetiracetam compared with phenobarbital as a first-line treatment for neonatal seizures of any cause. The primary outcome measure was complete seizure freedom for 24 hours, assessed by independent review of the EEGs by 2 neurophysiologists.
RESULTS
Eighty percent of patients (24 of 30) randomly assigned to phenobarbital remained seizure free for 24 hours, compared with 28% of patients (15 of 53) randomly assigned to levetiracetam ( P < .001; relative risk 0.35 [95% confidence interval: 0.22-0.56]; modified intention-to-treat population). A 7.5% improvement in efficacy was achieved with a dose escalation of levetiracetam from 40 to 60 mg/kg. More adverse effects were seen in subjects randomly assigned to phenobarbital (not statistically significant).
CONCLUSIONS
In this phase IIb study, phenobarbital was more effective than levetiracetam for the treatment of neonatal seizures. Higher rates of adverse effects were seen with phenobarbital treatment. Higher-dose studies of levetiracetam are warranted, and definitive studies with long-term outcome measures are needed.",2020,"More adverse effects were seen in subjects randomly assigned to phenobarbital (not statistically significant).

164,32390706,Retrograde inspection vs standard forward view for the detection of colorectal adenomas during colonoscopy: A back-to-back randomized clinical trial.,"BACKGROUND
The adenoma detection rate (ADR) is inversely associated with the incidence of interval colorectal cancer and serves as a benchmark quality criterion during screening colonoscopy. However, adenoma miss rates reach up to 26% and studies have shown that a second inspection of the right colon in retroflected view (RFV) can increase ADR.
AIM
To assess whether inspection of the whole colon in RFV compared to standard forward view (SFV) can increase ADR.
METHODS
Patients presenting for screening or surveillance colonoscopy were invited to participate in this randomized controlled trial and randomized into two arms. In RFV arm colonoscopy was initially performed with SFV, followed by a second inspection of the whole colon in RFV. In the SFV arm first withdrawal was performed with SFV, followed by a second inspection of the whole colon again with SFV. Number, size and morphology of polyps found during first and second inspection in each colonic segment were recorded and all polyps were removed and sent for histopathology in separate containers.
RESULTS
Two hundred and five patients were randomly assigned to the RFV ( n = 101) and SFV ( n = 104) arm. In the RFV arm, both polyp detection rate (PDR) and ADR were increased under second inspection in RFV (PDR 1 st SFV: 39.8%, PDR 2 nd RFV: 46.6%; ADR 1 st SFV: 35.2%, ADR 2 nd RFV: 42%). Likewise, in the SFV arm, PDR and ADR were increased under second inspection (PDR 1 st SFV: 37.5%, PDR 2 nd SFV: 46.6%; ADR 1 st SFV: 34.1%, ADR 2 nd SFV: 44.3%) with no significant differences in ADR and PDR between the SFV and RFV arm. Mean number of adenomas per patient (APP) was increased in the RFV and SFV (APP RFV arm: 1 st SFV: 1.71; 2 nd RFV: 2.38; APP SFV arm: 1 st SFV: 1.83, 2 nd SFV:2.2). The majority of adenomas additionally found during second inspection in RFV or in SFV were located in the transverse and left-sided colon and were > 5 mm in size.
CONCLUSION
Second inspection of the whole colon leads to increased adenoma detection with no differences between SFV and RFV. Hence, increased detection is most likely a feature of the second inspection itself but not of the inspection mode.",2020,"Mean number of adenomas per patient (APP) was increased in the RFV and SFV (APP RFV arm: 1 st SFV: 1.71; 2 nd RFV: 2.38; APP SFV arm: 1 st SFV: 1.83, 2 nd SFV:2.2).","['Two hundred and five patients', 'Patients presenting for screening or surveillance colonoscopy']","['standard forward view (SFV', 'RFV', 'SFV', 'Retrograde inspection vs standard forward view']","['polyp detection rate (PDR) and ADR', 'Mean number of adenomas per patient (APP', 'ADR and PDR', 'PDR and ADR', 'adenoma detection', 'Number, size and morphology of polyps']","[{'cui': 'C4319558', 'cui_str': '200'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patient'}, {'cui': 'C0150312', 'cui_str': 'Present'}, {'cui': 'C0199230', 'cui_str': 'Screening for cancer'}, {'cui': 'C0220920', 'cui_str': 'surveillance'}, {'cui': 'C0009378', 'cui_str': 'Colonoscopy'}]","[{'cui': 'C0038137', 'cui_str': 'standards'}, {'cui': 'C0439780', 'cui_str': 'Forward'}, {'cui': 'C0449911', 'cui_str': 'View'}, {'cui': 'C0439784', 'cui_str': 'Retrograde direction'}, {'cui': 'C0199219', 'cui_str': 'Inspection'}]","[{'cui': 'C0032584', 'cui_str': 'Polyp'}, {'cui': 'C0206100', 'cui_str': 'Signal Detection (Psychology)'}, {'cui': 'C0001430', 'cui_str': 'Adenoma'}, {'cui': 'C0444504', 'cui_str': 'Mean'}, {'cui': 'C0237753', 'cui_str': 'Number'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patient'}, {'cui': 'C0611285', 'cui_str': 'APP protein, human'}, {'cui': 'C1845050', 'cui_str': 'Pigmentary Disorder, Reticulate, with Systemic Manifestations'}, {'cui': 'C0456389', 'cui_str': 'Size'}, {'cui': 'C0332437', 'cui_str': 'Associated morphology'}]",205.0,0.041914,"Mean number of adenomas per patient (APP) was increased in the RFV and SFV (APP RFV arm: 1 st SFV: 1.71; 2 nd RFV: 2.38; APP SFV arm: 1 st SFV: 1.83, 2 nd SFV:2.2).","[{'ForeName': 'Timo', 'Initials': 'T', 'LastName': 'Rath', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Internal Medicine 1, Division of Gastroenterology, Ludwig Demling Endoscopy Center of Excellence, Friedrich-Alexander-University, Erlangen Nuernberg, Erlangen 91054, Germany. timo.rath@uk-erlangen.de.'}, {'ForeName': 'Lukas', 'Initials': 'L', 'LastName': 'Pfeifer', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Internal Medicine 1, Division of Gastroenterology, Ludwig Demling Endoscopy Center of Excellence, Friedrich-Alexander-University, Erlangen Nuernberg, Erlangen 91054, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Clemens', 'Initials': 'C', 'LastName': 'Neufert', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Internal Medicine 1, Division of Gastroenterology, Ludwig Demling Endoscopy Center of Excellence, Friedrich-Alexander-University, Erlangen Nuernberg, Erlangen 91054, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Andreas', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Kremer', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Internal Medicine 1, Division of Gastroenterology, Ludwig Demling Endoscopy Center of Excellence, Friedrich-Alexander-University, Erlangen Nuernberg, Erlangen 91054, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Moritz', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Leppkes', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Internal Medicine 1, Division of Gastroenterology, Ludwig Demling Endoscopy Center of Excellence, Friedrich-Alexander-University, Erlangen Nuernberg, Erlangen 91054, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Arthur', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Hoffman', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Internal Medicine, Division of Gastroenterology, Klinikum Aschaffenburg, Aschaffenburg 63739, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Markus F', 'Initials': 'MF', 'LastName': 'Neurath', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Internal Medicine 1, Division of Gastroenterology, Ludwig Demling Endoscopy Center of Excellence, Friedrich-Alexander-University, Erlangen Nuernberg, Erlangen 91054, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Steffen', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Zopf', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Internal Medicine, Division of Gastroenterology, Klinikum Fürth, Fürth 90766, Germany.'}]",World journal of gastroenterology,['10.3748/wjg.v26.i16.1962']
165,32391862,A Multifaceted Antimicrobial Stewardship Program for the Treatment of Uncomplicated Cystitis in Nursing Home Residents.,"Importance
Urinary tract infections are the most common infections in nursing home residents. However, most antibiotic use is for unlikely cystitis (ie, nonspecific symptoms and positive culture results secondary to asymptomatic bacteriuria or a urine sample improperly collected for culture) that is unnecessary and inappropriate. This antibiotic use is associated with an increased risk of antimicrobial resistance, adverse drug events, and Clostridioides difficile (formerly Clostridium difficile) infections.
Objective
To determine the association of a multifaceted antimicrobial stewardship and quality improvement intervention with the reduction in unnecessary antimicrobial use for unlikely cystitis among noncatheterized nursing home residents.
Design, Setting, and Participants
A quality improvement intervention evaluation was conducted to target antimicrobial use among residents with unlikely cystitis in 25 nursing homes across the United States. Baseline data were collected between February 1, 2017, and April 30, 2017. The intervention was conducted from May 1, 2017, to April 30, 2018.
Interventions
Intervention nursing homes (n = 12) were randomized to receive a 1-hour introductory webinar, pocket-sized educational cards, tools for system change, and educational clinical vignettes addressing the diagnosis and treatment of suspected uncomplicated cystitis. Monthly web-based coaching calls were held for staff of intervention nursing homes. All facilities received quarterly feedback reports regarding the management of uncomplicated cystitis. Control group nursing homes (n = 13) received usual care.
Main Outcomes and Measures
The primary outcome was the incidence of antibiotic treatment for unlikely cystitis cases, defined using published criteria. Secondary outcomes included overall antibiotic use for any urinary tract infection and the safety outcomes of C difficile infections, as well as all-cause hospitalizations and death.
Results
Among the 25 nursing homes participating in this quality improvement study, including 512 408 intervention facility resident-days and 443 912 control facility resident-days, fewer unlikely cystitis cases were treated with antibiotics in intervention facilities compared with control facilities (adjusted incident rate ratio [AIRR], 0.73 [95% CI, 0.59-0.91]); C difficile infection rates were also lower in intervention nursing homes vs control nursing homes (AIRR, 0.35 [95% CI, 0.19-0.64]). Overall antibiotic use for any type of urinary tract infection was 17% lower in the intervention facilities than the control facilities (AIRR, 0.83 [95% CI, 0.70-0.99]; P = .04). There was no increase in all-cause hospitalizations or deaths due to the intervention (all-cause hospitalizations: AIRR, 0.95 [95% CI, 0.75-1.19]; all-cause death: AIRR, 0.92 [95% CI, 0.73-1.16]).
Conclusions and Relevance
This study suggests that a low-intensity, multifaceted intervention was associated with improved antibiotic prescribing for uncomplicated cystitis in a cohort of nursing homes without an adverse association with other safety outcomes. Although promising, further study is needed to determine whether the intervention could be widely implemented to assist facilities in meeting new federal nursing home requirements for antimicrobial stewardship and quality assurance performance improvement programs.",2020,"Overall antibiotic use for any type of urinary tract infection was 17% lower in the intervention facilities than the control facilities (AIRR, 0.83","['25 nursing homes participating', 'noncatheterized nursing home residents', 'residents with unlikely cystitis in 25 nursing homes across the United States', 'Interventions\n\n\nIntervention nursing homes (n\u2009=\u200912', 'nursing home residents', 'Uncomplicated Cystitis in Nursing Home Residents']","['Multifaceted Antimicrobial Stewardship Program', '1-hour introductory webinar, pocket-sized educational cards, tools for system change, and educational clinical vignettes addressing the diagnosis and treatment of suspected uncomplicated cystitis', 'usual care']","['Overall antibiotic use', 'incidence of antibiotic treatment for unlikely cystitis cases', 'overall antibiotic use for any urinary tract infection and the safety outcomes of C difficile infections, as well as all-cause hospitalizations and death', 'urinary tract infection', 'C difficile infection rates']","[{'cui': 'C0028688', 'cui_str': 'Long term care facility'}, {'cui': 'C1320928', 'cui_str': 'Resident physician'}, {'cui': 'C0010692', 'cui_str': 'Cystitis'}, {'cui': 'C1301808', 'cui_str': 'State'}, {'cui': 'C0184661', 'cui_str': 'Procedure'}, {'cui': 'C0028661', 'cui_str': 'Nursing personnel'}, {'cui': 'C0442519', 'cui_str': 'Domestic'}, {'cui': 'C0443334', 'cui_str': 'Uncomplicated'}]","[{'cui': 'C4505099', 'cui_str': 'Antimicrobial Stewardship'}, {'cui': 'C0018106', 'cui_str': 'Government Programs'}, {'cui': 'C0439227', 'cui_str': 'hour'}, {'cui': 'C0007189', 'cui_str': 'Cardiology'}, {'cui': 'C0336791', 'cui_str': 'Tool'}, {'cui': 'C0085104', 'cui_str': 'Drug Targeting'}, {'cui': 'C0037400', 'cui_str': 'Social Change'}, {'cui': 'C0205210', 'cui_str': 'Clinical'}, {'cui': 'C0376649', 'cui_str': 'Addresses'}, {'cui': 'C0011900', 'cui_str': 'Diagnosis'}, {'cui': 'C0039798', 'cui_str': 'therapy'}, {'cui': 'C0750491', 'cui_str': 'Suspected'}, {'cui': 'C0443334', 'cui_str': 'Uncomplicated'}, {'cui': 'C0010692', 'cui_str': 'Cystitis'}]","[{'cui': 'C0282416', 'cui_str': 'Overall'}, {'cui': 'C0003232', 'cui_str': 'Antibiotic'}, {'cui': 'C0042153', 'cui_str': 'utilization'}, {'cui': 'C0021149', 'cui_str': 'Incidence'}, {'cui': 'C0039798', 'cui_str': 'therapy'}, {'cui': 'C0010692', 'cui_str': 'Cystitis'}, {'cui': 'C0868928', 'cui_str': 'Case'}, {'cui': 'C0042029', 'cui_str': 'Urinary tract infectious disease'}, {'cui': 'C0036043', 'cui_str': 'Safety'}, {'cui': 'C1274040', 'cui_str': 'Result'}, {'cui': 'C0009450', 'cui_str': 'Communicable disease'}, {'cui': 'C0019993', 'cui_str': 'Inpatient care'}, {'cui': 'C0011065', 'cui_str': 'Death'}]",,0.0698375,"Overall antibiotic use for any type of urinary tract infection was 17% lower in the intervention facilities than the control facilities (AIRR, 0.83","[{'ForeName': 'David A', 'Initials': 'DA', 'LastName': 'Nace', 'Affiliation': 'Division of Geriatric Medicine, University of Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.'}, {'ForeName': 'Joseph T', 'Initials': 'JT', 'LastName': 'Hanlon', 'Affiliation': 'Division of Geriatric Medicine, University of Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.'}, {'ForeName': 'Christopher J', 'Initials': 'CJ', 'LastName': 'Crnich', 'Affiliation': 'Division of Infectious Diseases, University of Wisconsin School of Medicine and Public Health, Madison.'}, {'ForeName': 'Paul J', 'Initials': 'PJ', 'LastName': 'Drinka', 'Affiliation': 'Division of Internal Medicine and Geriatrics, University of Wisconsin, Madison.'}, {'ForeName': 'Steven J', 'Initials': 'SJ', 'LastName': 'Schweon', 'Affiliation': 'Infection Prevention Consultant, Saylorsburg, Pennsylvania.'}, {'ForeName': 'Gulsum', 'Initials': 'G', 'LastName': 'Anderson', 'Affiliation': 'Division of Geriatric Medicine, University of Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.'}, {'ForeName': 'Subashan', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Perera', 'Affiliation': 'Division of Geriatric Medicine, University of Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.'}]",JAMA internal medicine,['10.1001/jamainternmed.2020.1256']
166,32391894,Effect of Viewing Disney Movies During Chemotherapy on Self-Reported Quality of Life Among Patients With Gynecologic Cancer: A Randomized Clinical Trial.,"Importance
In addition to treatment efficacy, evaluation of adverse effects and quality of life assessments have become increasingly relevant in oncology.
Objective
To evaluate the association of watching Disney movies during chemotherapy with emotional and social functioning and fatigue status.
Design, Setting, and Participants
This randomized clinical trial was performed from December 2017 to December 2018 at a cancer referral center in Vienna, Austria. A consecutive sample of women with gynecologic cancers was recruited through July 2018. Inclusion criteria included age older than 18 years, written informed consent, and planned 6 cycles of chemotherapy with either carboplatin and paclitaxel or carboplatin and pegylated liposomal doxorubicin. Exclusion criteria were inadequate knowledge of the German language or receipt of other chemotherapy regimens. Data analysis was performed from February 2019 to April 2019.
Intervention
Participants were either shown Disney movies or not during 6 cycles of chemotherapy. Before and after every cycle, they completed standardized questionnaires from the European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC).
Main Outcomes and Measures
Primary outcomes were change of quality of life, as defined by the EORTC Core-30 (version 3) questionnaire, and fatigue, as defined by the EORTC Quality of Life Questionnaire Fatigue, during 6 cycles of chemotherapy.
Results
Fifty-six women entered the study, and 50 completed it, including 25 women in the Disney group (mean [SD] age, 59 [12] years) and 25 women in the control group (mean [SD] age, 62 [8] years). In the course of 6 cycles of chemotherapy, patients in the Disney group felt less tense and worried less than patients in the control group according to their responses to the questions about emotional functioning (mean [SD] score, 86.9 [14.3] vs 66.3 [27.2]; maximum test P = .02). Furthermore, watching Disney movies was associated with less encroachment on patients' family life and social activities, as evaluated by the social functioning questions (mean [SD] score, 86.1 [23.0] vs 63.6 [33.6]; maximum test P = .01). Moreover, this intervention led to fewer fatigue symptoms (mean [SD] score, 85.5 [13.6] vs 66.4 [22.5]; maximum test P = .01). Perceived global health status was not associated with watching Disney movies (mean [SD] score, 75.9 [17.6] vs 61.0 [25.1]; maximum test P = .16).
Conclusions and Relevance
These findings suggest that watching Disney movies during chemotherapy may be associated with improvements in emotional functioning, social functioning, and fatigue status in patients with gynecologic cancers.

We conducted an online hypothetical food choice experiment where 633 participants selected the ingredients for a sandwich from five categories: meat/protein, cheese, spread/dressing, bread, and vegetables. Each participant was randomly assigned to one of four calorie information conditions: 1) a condition in which no information about calories was provided, 2) a condition in which calorie information was provided for each ingredient, 3) a condition in which calorie information was presented relative to the highest calorie item, and 4) a condition in which calorie information was presented relative to the lowest calorie item. Participants in the high- and low-calorie reference conditions ordered between 32 and 36 fewer calories per sandwich than participants in the no-calorie information control condition (p ≤ 0.04).

168,32388632,Benefit of a nurse-led telephone-based intervention prior to the first urogynecology outpatient visit: a randomized-controlled trial.,"INTRODUCTION AND HYPOTHESIS
Triage has become a valid tool to reduce workload during the first consultation in a specialized clinic. A nurse-led telephone intervention prior to the first urogynecologic visit reduces visit duration and increases patients' and physicians' satisfaction.
METHODS
All patients scheduled for their very first visit were recruited. They were randomized into an intervention group (prior contact by a specialized urogynecology nurse) and a control group (no contact). The intervention included a questionnaire about history and symptoms. Patients were prompted to complete a bladder diary. Primary outcome was duration of the consultation; secondary outcomes were patients' and physicians' satisfaction with the intervention.
RESULTS
Fifty-five patients were allocated to the intervention group and 53 to the control group with no difference regarding age, BMI, parity, menopausal status and primary diagnosis. Mean duration of the telephone call was 10.8 min (SD 4.4). The consultation was significantly shorter in the intervention group than in the control group (mean difference: 4 min and 8 s, p = 0.017). In the intervention group, 79% of the patients found the consultation quality ""excellent,"" 86% would return, and 77% would recommend our clinic to a relative or friend compared with 68%, 67% and 66%, respectively, in the control group. Physicians were ""very satisfied"" or ""satisfied"" with the patient preparation.
CONCLUSIONS
A nurse-led intervention reduces the duration of the first uroynecologic consultation and is associated with high patient and physician satisfaction. Further research should evaluate whether it also decreases the number of follow-up visits and further referrals.",2020,"The consultation was significantly shorter in the intervention group than in the control group (mean difference: 4 min and 8 s, p = 0.017).","['Fifty-five patients', 'All patients scheduled for their very first visit were recruited']","['intervention group (prior contact by a specialized urogynecology nurse) and a control group (no contact', 'nurse-led telephone-based intervention']","['consultation quality ""excellent', ""duration of the consultation; secondary outcomes were patients' and physicians' satisfaction with the intervention"", 'Mean duration of the telephone call']","[{'cui': 'C0450382', 'cui_str': '55'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patient'}, {'cui': 'C0030703', 'cui_str': 'Patient Schedules'}]","[{'cui': 'C0184661', 'cui_str': 'Procedure'}, {'cui': 'C0439745', 'cui_str': 'Grouped'}, {'cui': 'C0332152', 'cui_str': 'Before'}, {'cui': 'C0332158', 'cui_str': 'Contact with'}, {'cui': 'C0205555', 'cui_str': 'Special'}, {'cui': 'C0028661', 'cui_str': 'Nursing personnel'}, {'cui': 'C0009932', 'cui_str': 'Control Groups'}, {'cui': 'C0023175', 'cui_str': 'Lead'}, {'cui': 'C0039457', 'cui_str': 'Telephone'}, {'cui': 'C0002055', 'cui_str': 'Alkali'}]","[{'cui': 'C0009818', 'cui_str': 'Consultation'}, {'cui': 'C0332306', 'cui_str': 'Quality'}, {'cui': 'C1961136', 'cui_str': 'Excellent'}, {'cui': 'C0449238', 'cui_str': 'Duration'}, {'cui': 'C0027627', 'cui_str': 'Metastasis'}, {'cui': 'C1274040', 'cui_str': 'Result'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patient'}, {'cui': 'C0031831', 'cui_str': 'Physician'}, {'cui': 'C0242428', 'cui_str': 'Satisfaction'}, {'cui': 'C0184661', 'cui_str': 'Procedure'}, {'cui': 'C0444504', 'cui_str': 'Mean'}, {'cui': 'C0039457', 'cui_str': 'Telephone'}]",55.0,0.0525178,"The consultation was significantly shorter in the intervention group than in the control group (mean difference: 4 min and 8 s, p = 0.017).","[{'ForeName': 'Maria', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Jimènez Torres', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Medical University of Vienna, Waehringer Guertel 18, 1090, Wien, Austria.'}, {'ForeName': 'Klara', 'Initials': 'K', 'LastName': 'Beitl', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Medical University of Vienna, Waehringer Guertel 18, 1090, Wien, Austria.'}, {'ForeName': 'Julia', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Hummel Jimènez', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Medical University of Vienna, Waehringer Guertel 18, 1090, Wien, Austria.'}, {'ForeName': 'Hanna', 'Initials': 'H', 'LastName': 'Mayer', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Nursing Sciences, University of Vienna, Alser Straße 23, 1080, Wien, Austria.'}, {'ForeName': 'Sonja', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Zehetmayer', 'Affiliation': 'Center for Medical Statistics, Informatics, and Intelligent Systems, Medical University of Vienna, Spitalgasse 23, 1090, Wien, Austria.'}, {'ForeName': 'Wolfgang', 'Initials': 'W', 'LastName': 'Umek', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Medical University of Vienna, Waehringer Guertel 18, 1090, Wien, Austria. wolfgang.umek@meduniwien.ac.at.'}, {'ForeName': 'Nikolaus', 'Initials': 'N', 'LastName': 'Veit-Rubin', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Medical University of Vienna, Waehringer Guertel 18, 1090, Wien, Austria.'}]",International urogynecology journal,['10.1007/s00192-020-04318-0']

However, the effects of an individual PEEP-optimisation on respiratory mechanics, oxygenation and their potential correlation with the inflammatory response and postoperative complications have not been evaluated have not been compared to standard LPV in patients undergoing major abdominal surgery. Thirty-nine patients undergoing open radical cystectomy were enrolled in this study. In the study group (SG) optimal PEEP was determined by a decremental titration procedure and defined as the PEEP value resulting the highest static pulmonary compliance. In the control group (CG) PEEP was set to 6 cmH2O. Primary endpoints were intraoperative respiratory mechanics and gas exchange parameters. Secondary outcomes were perioperative procalcitonin kinetics and postoperative pulmonary complications. Optimal PEEP levels (median = 10, range: 8-14 cmH2O), PaO2/FiO2 (451.24 ± 121.78 mmHg vs. 404.15 ± 115.87 mmHg, P = 0.005) and static pulmonary compliance (52.54 ± 13.59 ml cmH2O-1 vs. 45.22 ± 9.13 ml cmH2O-1, P < 0.0001) were significantly higher, while driving pressure (8.26 ± 1.74 cmH2O vs. 9.73 ± 4.02 cmH2O, P < 0.0001) was significantly lower in the SG as compared to the CG. No significant intergroup differences were found in procalcitonin kinetics (P = 0.076). Composite outcome results indicated a non-significant reduction of postoperative complications in the SG. Intraoperative PEEP-optimization resulted in significant improvement in gas exchange and pulmonary mechanics as compared to standard LPV. Whether these have any effect on short and long term outcomes require further investigations.

170,32393559,Efficacy of Intra-Articular Hypertonic Dextrose (Prolotherapy) for Knee Osteoarthritis: A Randomized Controlled Trial.,"PURPOSE
To test the efficacy of intra-articular hypertonic dextrose prolotherapy (DPT) vs normal saline (NS) injection for knee osteoarthritis (KOA).
METHODS
A single-center, parallel-group, blinded, randomized controlled trial was conducted at a university primary care clinic in Hong Kong. Patients with KOA (n = 76) were randomly allocated (1:1) to DPT or NS groups for injections at weeks 0, 4, 8, and 16. The primary outcome was the Western Ontario McMaster University Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC; 0-100 points) pain score. The secondary outcomes were the WOMAC composite, function and stiffness scores; objectively assessed physical function test results; visual analogue scale (VAS) for knee pain; and EuroQol-5D score. All outcomes were evaluated at baseline and at 16, 26, and 52 weeks using linear mixed model.
RESULTS
Randomization produced similar groups. The WOMAC pain score at 52 weeks showed a difference-in-difference estimate of -10.34 (95% CI, -19.20 to -1.49, P = 0.022) points. A similar favorable effect was shown on the difference-in-difference estimate on WOMAC function score of -9.55 (95% CI, -17.72 to -1.39, P = 0.022), WOMAC composite score of -9.65 (95% CI, -17.77 to -1.53, P = 0.020), VAS pain intensity score of -10.98 (95% CI, -21.36 to -0.61, P = 0.038), and EuroQol-5D VAS score of 8.64 (95% CI, 1.36 to 5.92, P = 0.020). No adverse events were reported.
CONCLUSION

171,32393614,Can a teacher-led mindfulness intervention for new school entrants improve child outcomes? Protocol for a school cluster randomised controlled trial.,"INTRODUCTION
The first years of school are critical in establishing a foundation for positive long-term academic, social and well-being outcomes. Mindfulness-based interventions may help students transition well into school, but few robust studies have been conducted in this age group. We aim to determine whether compared with controls, children who receive a mindfulness intervention within the first years of primary school have better: (1) immediate attention/short-term memory at 18 months post-randomisation (primary outcome); (2) inhibition, working memory and cognitive flexibility at 18 months post-randomisation; (3) socio-emotional well-being, emotion-regulation and mental health-related behaviours at 6 and 18 months post-randomisation; (4) sustained changes in teacher practice and classroom interactions at 18 months post-randomisation. Furthermore, we aim to determine whether the implementation predicts the efficacy of the intervention, and the cost effectiveness relative to outcomes.
METHODS AND ANALYSIS
This cluster randomised controlled trial will be conducted in 22 primary schools in disadvantaged areas of Melbourne, Australia. 826 students in the first year of primary school will be recruited to detect between groups differences of Cohen's d=0.25 at the 18-month follow-up. Parent, teacher and child-assessment measures of child attention, emotion-regulation, executive functioning, socio-emotional well-being, mental health-related behaviour and learning, parent mental well-being, teacher well-being will be collected 6 and 18 months post-randomisation. Implementation factors will be measured throughout the study. Intention-to-treat analyses, accounting for clustering within schools and classes, will adopt a two-level random effects linear regression model to examine outcomes for the intervention versus control students. Unadjusted and analyses adjusted for baseline scores, baseline age, gender and family socioeconomic status will be conducted.
ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION
Ethics approval has been received by the Human Research Ethics Committee at the University of Melbourne. Findings will be reported in peer-review publications, national and international conference presentations and research snapshots directly provided to participating schools and families.

173,32330670,Targeted Assessment and Context-Tailored Implementation of Change Strategies (TACTICS) to increase evidence based psychotherapy in military behavioral health clinics: Design of a cluster-randomized stepped-wedge implementation study.,"BACKGROUND
Despite efforts by the U.S. Department of Defense to train behavioral health (BH) providers in evidence-based psychotherapies (EBPs) for posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), numerous barriers limit EBP implementation. A context-tailored implementation approach called TACTICS (Targeted Assessment and Context-Tailored Implementation of Change Strategies) holds promise for increasing the use of EBPs such as prolonged exposure therapy (PE) in military treatment facilities. TACTICS combines a needs assessment, a rubric for selecting implementation strategies based on local barriers, an implementation toolkit, and external facilitation to support local champions and their implementation teams in enacting changes. This paper describes the rationale for and design of a study that will evaluate whether TACTICS can increase implementation of PE for PTSD and improve patient outcomes in military BH clinics relative to provider training in PE alone.
METHODS
The study is a multi-site, cluster randomized, stepped-wedge trial, with the military treatment facility as the unit of analysis. Eight facilities undergo a provider-training phase, followed by 5 months of TACTICS implementation. The timing of TACTICS at each facility is randomly assigned to begin 9, 14, or 19 months after beginning the provider-training phase. Primary analyses will compare the proportion of PTSD patients receiving PE and patients' mean improvement in PTSD symptoms before and after the onset of TACTICS.
DISCUSSION
TACTICS endeavors to balance standardization of empirically-supported implementation strategies with the flexibility of application necessary for success across varied clinical settings. If successful, TACTICS may represent a systematic and scalable method of promoting and supporting EBP implementation.

174,32278195,Cardiorespiratory responses to fine particles during ambient PM 2.5 pollution waves: Findings from a randomized crossover trial in young healthy adults.,"BACKGROUND
PM 2.5 pollution waves (PPWs) are severe air pollution events with extremely high-level concentration of ambient PM 2.5 . PPWs, such as haze days, were suggested to be associated with increased cardiopulmonary mortality and morbidity. However, the biological mechanism response to ambient PM 2.5 during PPWs is still unclear.
METHODS
A randomized crossover trial was conducted on 29 healthy young adults. Repeated health measurements were performed before, during and after two typical PPWs under filtered and sham indoor air purification, with a washout interval of at least 2 weeks. Health parameters including blood pressure (BP), pulmonary function, fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) and circulating biomarkers which reflect platelet activation, blood coagulation and systematic oxidative stress were measured.
RESULTS
Ambient PM 2.5 levels elevated apparently during PPWs. Under sham purification, significant increase in FeNO and soluble P-selectin (sP-selectin) and decreases in pulmonary function were observed from pre-PPWs period to during-PPWs period. The changes in health biomarkers as mentioned above became attenuated and insignificant under filtered condition. For instance, sP-selectin increased by 12.0% (95% CI: 3.8%, 20.8%) during-PPWs periods compared with pre-PPWs periods under sham purification, while non-significant change was observed under filtered condition. Significant associations between time-weighted personal PM 2.5 exposure and increased levels of health biomarkers including FeNO, sP-selectin, oxidized low-density lipoprotein (ox-LDL) and 8-isoprostane (8-isoPGF2α) were found.

175,32305787,A prospective randomized controlled study of combined spinal-general anesthesia vs. general anesthesia for laparoscopic gynecological surgery: Opioid sparing properties.,"STUDY OBJECTIVE
We aimed to determine the magnitude of peri-operative opioid sparing effect when general anesthesia is combined with spinal analgesia for laparoscopic gynecological surgery.
DESIGN
A prospective randomized controlled study; a three-group trial with two comparisons (each intervention group to control).
SETTING
Operating room and postoperative recovery area.
PATIENTS
Patients aged between 18 and 65 years with American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status 1 or 2 who were scheduled for inpatient elective laparoscopic gynecological surgery with expected pneumoperitoneum duration of at least 20 min. Of 102 randomized patients, 99 completed the study.
INTERVENTIONS
Patients were randomized to general anesthesia alone (control group) or combined with very-low-dose (levobupivacaine 3.75 mg; sufentanil 2.5 μg) or low-dose (levobupivacaine 7.5 mg; sufentanil 2.5 μg) spinal analgesia.
MEASUREMENTS
Primary endpoints were perioperative opioid consumption and pain scores (11-point numeric rating scale) at 30 min, 1 h, 2 h, 4 h and 24 h post-surgery. Secondary endpoints were patient satisfaction with anesthetic care and participation in research, sevoflurane consumption and adverse effects.
MAIN RESULTS
Intra-operative sufentanil (median [95% CI]) consumption was 16.1 (10.5-22.6) μg/h in the control group versus 4.7 (3.2-9.2) μg/h in the very-low-dose and versus 2.9 (0.0-4.0) μg/h in the low-dose spinal analgesia groups (p < 0.001, for both comparisons). Median (95% CI) piritramide consumption at 24 h post-surgery was 7.5 (3-8) mg in the control group versus 5 (0-7.5) mg in the very-low dose spinal analgesia group (p = 0.182) and versus 2 (0-2.5) mg in the low-dose spinal analgesia group (p = 0.001). Postoperative pain scores were consistently <3 only in the low dose spinal analgesia group. Patient satisfaction with anesthetic care and participation in research was very high in all groups.
CONCLUSIONS
Low-dose spinal analgesia in combination with general anesthesia reduces peri-operative opioid consumption in laparoscopic gynecological surgery in immediate postoperative period.",2020,"CONCLUSIONS

176,32305794,Hemodynamic profiles with and without left uterine displacement: A randomized study in term pregnancies receiving subarachnoid blockade for cesarean delivery.,"STUDY OBJECTIVE
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of left uterine displacement (LUD) on maternal hemodynamic measures following subarachnoid blockade (SAB) for cesarean delivery (CD). The primary outcome was cardiac output (CO) differences between the LUD and non-LUD groups pre-delivery.
DESIGN
Prospective, randomized, controlled study.
SETTING
Obstetric operating room.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
We studied hemodynamic profiles in sixty healthy women with term pregnancies who underwent elective CD with SAB. Hemodynamics were measured using a non-invasive CO monitor, the Nexfin™. All women received a crystalloid 10 mL/kg preload, and hypotension was treated with ephedrine boluses.
INTERVENTIONS
Sixty women with term pregnancies were randomized into two groups: LUD group (received 15-30° LUD after SAB, n = 30) and non-LUD group (no LUD after SAB, n = 30).
MEASUREMENTS
Patient's hemodynamic variables including systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), mean arterial pressure (MAP), heart rate (HR), CO, systemic vascular resistance (SVR), and left ventricular contractility index (dP/dT) were measured continuously from pre-SAB until end of surgery.
MAIN RESULTS
In pre-delivery phase at 5 min after spinal anesthesia, the LUD group had significantly higher CO (7.20 ± 1.78 [95%CI 6.53-7.87] vs. 6.23 ± 1.44 L/min [95% CI 5.69-6.77]; p = 0.016) and higher dP/dT (784 ± 313 vs. 604 ± 241 mmHg/s; p = 0.020) than the non-LUD group. The LUD group had a lower incidence of maternal systolic hypotension at 5-min post-SAB (16.7% vs. 53.3% in non-LUD group, p = 0.003).
CONCLUSIONS
The study demonstrates modest hemodynamic advantages (higher CO, less hypotension, higher dP/dT) with pre-delivery LUD. The results support maternal hemodynamic benefits of LUD until delivery in women with term pregnancies undergoing CD with SAB.",2020,"The LUD group had a lower incidence of maternal systolic hypotension at 5-min post-SAB (16.7% vs. 53.3% in non-LUD group, p = 0.003).

177,32325415,Whole-body vibration and stretching enhances dorsiflexion range of motion in individuals with chronic ankle instability.,"OBJECTIVE
The purpose of this study was to determine if WBV performed concurrently with static stretching was more effective than static stretching alone to increase dorsiflexion ROM (DFROM) in individuals with chronic ankle instability (CAI).
DESIGN
Controlled laboratory study.
PARTICIPANTS
Thirty-nine participants with CAI (history of ankle sprain, a feeling of ""giving way"" during activity, and a qualifying Foot and Ankle Ability Measure Ankle score) were divided into 3 groups (normative (N), static stretch (SS), and static stretch with vibration (SV)). Participants stretched the triceps surae 4 days/wk for 3 wks. Vibration was imposed at 34 Hz and 1.8 mm.
MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES
DFROM was assessed in a straight and bent-leg position.
RESULTS
No differences were detected at any time in the N or SS group, however SS did exhibit large effect sizes with 95% confidence intervals (CI) that did not cross zero from baseline to 3 weeks for both measures. The SV group demonstrated increased DFROM from baseline for both time points and a large effect size with 95% CI that did not cross zero from post tx-1 to post tx-2.

178,32329747,The Scleroderma Patient-Centered Intervention Network Self-Management Program: Protocol for a Randomized Feasibility Trial.,"BACKGROUND
Systemic sclerosis (SSc), or scleroderma, is a rare disease that often results in significant disruptions to activities of daily living and can negatively affect physical and psychological well-being. Because there is no known cure, SSc treatment focuses on reducing symptoms and disability and improving health-related quality of life (HRQoL). Self-management programs are known to increase self-efficacy for disease management in many chronic diseases. The Scleroderma Patient-centered Intervention Network (SPIN) developed a Web-based self-management program (SPIN self-management; SPIN-SELF) to increase self-efficacy for disease management and to improve HRQoL for patients with SSc.
OBJECTIVE
The proposed study aims to assess the feasibility of conducting a full-scale randomized controlled trial (RCT) of the SPIN-SELF program by evaluating the trial implementation processes, required resources and management, scientific aspects, and participant acceptability and usage of the SPIN-SELF program.
METHODS
The SPIN-SELF feasibility trial will be conducted via the SPIN Cohort. The SPIN Cohort was developed as a framework for embedded pragmatic trials using the cohort multiple RCT design. In total, 40 English-speaking SPIN Cohort participants with low disease management self-efficacy (Self-Efficacy for Managing Chronic Disease Scale score ≤7), who have indicated interest in using a Web-based self-management program, will be randomized with a 3:2 ratio into the SPIN-SELF program or usual care for 3 months. Feasibility outcomes include trial implementation processes, required resources and management, scientific aspects, and patient acceptability and usage of the SPIN-SELF program.
RESULTS
Enrollment of the 40 participants occurred between July 5, 2019, and July 27, 2019. By November 25, 2019, data collection of trial outcomes was completed. Data analysis is underway, and results are expected to be published in 2020.
CONCLUSIONS
The SPIN-SELF program is a self-help tool that may improve disease-management self-efficacy and improve HRQoL in patients with SSc. The SPIN-SELF feasibility trial will ensure that trial methodology is robust, feasible, and consistent with trial participant expectations.

179,32379660,A sleep hygiene and yoga intervention conducted in affordable housing communities: Pilot study results and lessons for a future trial.,"BACKGROUND
and purpose: Inadequate sleep is highly prevalent among socioeconomically disadvantaged and racial/ethnic minority communities and is often related to maladaptive sleep behaviors and stress. There is scant research investigating the delivery of these interventions in underserved communities. The purpose of this study was to develop and test the feasibility and acceptability of a sleep education and yoga intervention for socioeconomically disadvantaged and racial/ethnic diverse adults.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
We present quantitative and qualitative data from a single-arm sleep education and yoga pilot study (n = 17) conducted in two affordable housing communities, and the multi-modal process we employed to refine the intervention for a future trial.
RESULTS
Participants were age 43.6 years on average (±19.3 years) and 88.2% were female. Nearly 56% identified as non-Hispanic Black and 19% as Hispanic/Latino. Results showed significant pre/post-intervention improvements in sleep duration (5.4 ± 1.2 h/night vs 6.9 ± 1.7 h/night; p < 0.01), sleep-related impairment (-8.15; p < 0.01), sleep disturbance (-5.95; p < 0.01), and sleep hygiene behaviors (-5.50; p < 0.01).

180,32380988,"The effect of 50% oxygen on PtCO 2 in patients with stable COPD, bronchiectasis, and neuromuscular disease or kyphoscoliosis: randomised cross-over trials.","BACKGROUND
High-concentration oxygen therapy causes increased arterial partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO 2 ) in patients with COPD, asthma, pneumonia, obesity and acute lung injury. The objective of these studies was to investigate whether this physiological response to oxygen therapy occurs in stable patients with neuromuscular disease or kyphoscoliosis, and bronchiectasis.
METHODS
Three randomised cross-over trials recruited stable patients with neuromuscular disease or kyphoscoliosis (n = 20), bronchiectasis (n = 24), and COPD (n = 24). Participants were randomised to receive 50% oxygen and 21% oxygen (air), each for 30 min, in randomly assigned order. The primary outcome was transcutaneous partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PtCO 2 ) at 30 min. The primary analysis was a mixed linear model.
RESULTS
Sixty six of the 68 participants had baseline PtCO 2 values < 45 mmHg. The intervention baseline adjusted PtCO 2 difference (95% CI) between oxygen and room air after 30 min was 0.2 mmHg (- 0.4 to 0.9), P = 0.40; 0.5 mmHg (- 0.2 to 1.2), P = 0.18; and 1.3 mmHg (0.7 to 1.8), P < 0.001, in the neuromuscular/kyphoscoliosis, bronchiectasis and COPD participants respectively.
CONCLUSIONS
The small increase in PtCO 2 in the stable COPD patients with high-concentration oxygen therapy contrasts with the marked increases in PaCO 2 seen in the setting of acute exacerbations of COPD. This suggests that the model of studying the effects of high-concentration oxygen therapy in patients with stable respiratory disease is not generalisable to the use of oxygen therapy in the acute clinical setting. Appropriate studies of high-concentration compared to titrated oxygen in acute clinical settings are needed to determine if there is a risk of oxygen-induced hypercapnia in patients with neuromuscular disease, kyphoscoliosis or bronchiectasis.

181,32380994,Effect of hip abductor strengthening exercises in knee osteoarthritis: a randomized controlled trial.,"BACKGROUND
Osteoarthritis knee (OA) for patients whom had varus malalignment had higher peak adductor moment. Hip abductor strength played an important role in the decreasement of knee adduction moment. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of hip abductor exercises for patients who had medial compartment knees OA.
METHODS
Patients who had medial compartmental OA knee were randomized into two groups. The first group performed hip abductor strengthening exercises, combined with quadriceps strengthening exercises; whereas, the second group performed standalone quadriceps strengthening exercises. Self-reported Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Scores (KOOS) were collected by patients on follow-up visits.
RESULTS
Eighty-six patients completed the trial. All KOOS subscales were significantly improved in both groups after 10 weeks of treatment. However, there was no significant difference in the scores between either group at 2-10 weeks after treatment. Nevertheless, the effects of exercise for pain, symptoms, function in daily living and knee-related quality of life were found to have faster improvement within the hip abduction exercise group compared to the control group (2 weeks faster; pain, function in daily living and knee-related quality of life, 4 weeks faster; symptoms.) CONCLUSION: Since, adding quadriceps exercises could expedite improvement of less pain, symptoms, activity in daily living and quality of life faster than quadriceps exercises solely for a 2-4 weeks period. However, the effect size was small and there were no differences after this; hence, consideration of adding hip abductor exercises in the treatment protocol should be based on the patients and doctors appraisal.

182,32381013,Assessing the Veterans Health Administration's response to intimate partner violence among women: protocol for a randomized hybrid type 2 implementation-effectiveness trial.,"BACKGROUND
Intimate partner violence (IPV) against women in the United States (US) remains a complex public health crisis. Women who experience IPV are among the most vulnerable patients seen in primary care. Screening increases the detection of IPV and, when paired with appropriate response interventions, can mitigate the health effects of IPV. The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) has encouraged evidence-based IPV screening programs since 2014, yet adoption is modest and questions remain regarding the optimal ways to implement these practices, which are not yet available within the majority of VA primary care clinics.

This paper describes the planned evaluation of VA's nationwide implementation of IPV screening programs in primary care clinics through a randomized implementation-effectiveness hybrid type 2 trial. With the support of our VA operational partners, we propose a stepped wedge design to compare the impact of two implementation strategies of differing intensities (toolkit + implementation as usual vs. toolkit + implementation facilitation) and investigate the clinical effectiveness of IPV screening programs. Using balanced randomization, 16-20 VA Medical Centers will be assigned to receive implementation facilitation in one of three waves, with implementation support lasting 6 months. Implementation facilitation in this effort consists of the coordinated efforts of the two types of facilitators, external and internal. Implementation facilitation is compared to dissemination of a toolkit plus implementation as usual. We propose a mixed methods approach to collect quantitative (clinical records data) and qualitative (key informant interviews) implementation outcomes, as well as quantitative (clinical records data) clinical effectiveness outcomes. We will supplement these data collection methods with provider surveys to assess discrete implementation strategies used before, during, and following implementation facilitation. The integrated-Promoting Action on Research Implementation in Health Services (i-PARIHS) framework will guide the qualitative data collection and analysis. Summative data will be analyzed using the Reach Effectiveness Adoption Implementation Maintenance (RE-AIM) framework.
DISCUSSION
This research will advance national VHA efforts by identifying the practices and strategies useful for enhancing the implementation of IPV screening programs, thereby ultimately improving services for and health of women seen in primary care.

183,32385730,CARGEL Bioscaffold improves cartilage repair tissue after bone marrow stimulation in a minipig model.,"PURPOSE
To gain knowledge of the repair tissue in critically sized cartilage defects using bone marrow stimulation combined with CARGEL Bioscaffold (CB) compared with bone marrow stimulation (BMS) alone in a validated animal model.
METHODS
Six adult Göttingen minipigs received two chondral defects in each knee. The knees were randomized to either BMS combined with CB or BMS alone. The animals were euthanized after 6 months. Follow-up consisted of histomorphometry, immunohistochemistry, semiquantitative scoring of the repair tissue (ICRS II), and μCT of the trabecular bone beneath the defect.
RESULTS
There was significantly more fibrocartilage (80% vs 64%, p = 0.04) and a trend towards less fibrous tissue (15% vs 30%, p = 0.05) in the defects treated with CB. Hyaline cartilage was only seen in one defect treated with CB and none treated with BMS alone. For histological semiquantitative score (ICRS II), defects treated with CB scored lower on subchondral bone (69 vs. 44, p = 0.04). No significant differences were seen on the other parameters of the ICRS II. Immunohistochemistry revealed a trend towards more positive staining for collagen type II in the CB group (p = 0.08). μCT demonstrated thicker trabeculae (p = 0.029) and a higher bone material density (p = 0.028) in defects treated with CB.
CONCLUSION
Treatment of cartilage injuries with CARGEL Bioscaffold seems to lead to an improved repair tissue and a more pronounced subchondral bone response compared with bone marrow stimulation alone. However, the CARGEL Bioscaffold treatment did not lead to formation of hyaline cartilage.",2020,Immunohistochemistry revealed a trend towards more positive staining for collagen type II in the CB group (p = 0.08).,['Six adult Göttingen minipigs received two chondral defects in each knee'],"['CARGEL Bioscaffold', 'BMS', 'BMS combined with CB or BMS alone', 'bone marrow stimulation combined with CARGEL Bioscaffold (CB', 'bone marrow stimulation (BMS', 'μCT']","['subchondral bone response', 'histological semiquantitative score (ICRS II), defects treated with CB scored lower on subchondral bone', 'fibrous tissue', 'cartilage repair tissue', 'positive staining for collagen type', 'bone material density', 'fibrocartilage', 'Hyaline cartilage']","[{'cui': 'C0001675', 'cui_str': 'Adult'}, {'cui': 'C0039011', 'cui_str': 'Miniature Swine'}, {'cui': 'C0410334', 'cui_str': 'Defect of articular cartilage'}, {'cui': 'C0022742', 'cui_str': 'Bone structure of knee'}]","[{'cui': 'C0005953', 'cui_str': 'Bone marrow structure'}, {'cui': 'C1292856', 'cui_str': 'Stimulation'}, {'cui': 'C0205195', 'cui_str': 'Combined'}]","[{'cui': 'C0262950', 'cui_str': 'Bone structure'}, {'cui': 'C0205462', 'cui_str': 'Histologic'}, {'cui': 'C0449820', 'cui_str': 'Score'}, {'cui': 'C0243067', 'cui_str': 'defects'}, {'cui': 'C0332293', 'cui_str': 'Treated with'}, {'cui': 'C0441994', 'cui_str': 'Lower'}, {'cui': 'C0225331', 'cui_str': 'Fibrous tissue'}, {'cui': 'C1112785', 'cui_str': 'Cartilage repair'}, {'cui': 'C0040300', 'cui_str': 'Body tissue structure'}, {'cui': 'C1446409', 'cui_str': 'Positive'}, {'cui': 'C0487602', 'cui_str': 'Staining method'}, {'cui': 'C0009325', 'cui_str': 'Collagen'}, {'cui': 'C0332307', 'cui_str': 'Type - attribute'}, {'cui': 'C0520510', 'cui_str': 'Material'}, {'cui': 'C0178587', 'cui_str': 'Density'}, {'cui': 'C0684077', 'cui_str': 'Fibrocartilage'}, {'cui': 'C0225362', 'cui_str': 'Hyaline cartilage'}]",6.0,0.0454569,Immunohistochemistry revealed a trend towards more positive staining for collagen type II in the CB group (p = 0.08).,"[{'ForeName': 'K', 'Initials': 'K', 'LastName': 'Hede', 'Affiliation': 'Orthopedic Research Laboratory, Aarhus University Hospital, Palle Juul-Jensens Boulevard 99, Section J, Level 1, 8200, Aarhus N, Denmark. kch@clin.au.dk.'}, {'ForeName': 'B B', 'Initials': 'BB', 'LastName': 'Christensen', 'Affiliation': 'Orthopedic Research Laboratory, Aarhus University Hospital, Palle Juul-Jensens Boulevard 99, Section J, Level 1, 8200, Aarhus N, Denmark.'}, {'ForeName': 'M L', 'Initials': 'ML', 'LastName': 'Olesen', 'Affiliation': 'Orthopedic Research Laboratory, Aarhus University Hospital, Palle Juul-Jensens Boulevard 99, Section J, Level 1, 8200, Aarhus N, Denmark.'}, {'ForeName': 'J S', 'Initials': 'JS', 'LastName': 'Thomsen', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Biomedicine, Aarhus University, Wilhelm Meyers Allé 3, 8000, Aarhus C, Denmark.'}, {'ForeName': 'C B', 'Initials': 'CB', 'LastName': 'Foldager', 'Affiliation': 'Orthopedic Research Laboratory, Aarhus University Hospital, Palle Juul-Jensens Boulevard 99, Section J, Level 1, 8200, Aarhus N, Denmark.'}, {'ForeName': 'M C', 'Initials': 'MC', 'LastName': 'Lind', 'Affiliation': 'Orthopedic Research Laboratory, Aarhus University Hospital, Palle Juul-Jensens Boulevard 99, Section J, Level 1, 8200, Aarhus N, Denmark.'}]",Journal of experimental orthopaedics,['10.1186/s40634-020-00245-7']
184,32390925,Selection of the Better Dual-Timed Up and Go Cognitive Task to Be Used in Patients With Stroke Characterized by Subtraction Operation Difficulties.,"Background: The Timed Up and Go Test (TUG) with serial subtraction is commonly used to assess cognitive-dual task performance during walking for fall prediction. Some stroke patients cannot perform number subtraction and it is unclear which cognitive task can be used to substitute for the subtraction task in the TUG test. The aim of this study was to determine the type of cognitive task that produced the highest decrease on both motor and cognitive performances during TUG-dual in stroke patients. Methods: A total of 23 persons with stroke but capable of completing subtraction (ST) and 19 persons with subtraction operation difficulties (SOD) participated. Both groups have a similar age range (ST: 59.3 ± 10.4 years and SOD: 62.0 ± 6.8 years) and stroke onset duration (ST: 44.13 ± 62.29 months and SOD: 42.34 ± 39.69 months). The participants performed TUG without a cognitive task (TUG-single) followed by a cognitive task when seated (cognitive-single). In addition, TUG with a cognitive task (TUG-dual) was performed, with the activity randomly selected from four cognitive tasks, including alternate reciting, auditory working memory, clock task, and phonologic fluency. The main outcome variables-TUG duration measured by OPAL accelerometer and cognitive-dual task effect (DTE)-were analyzed using repeated-measures analyses of variance (ANOVA). Results: The number of correct responses when seated were significantly lower in the SOD as compared to the ST ( p < 0.05) during all cognitive tasks, except the phonologic fluency. During TUG-cognitive, TUG duration in the ST was significantly longer for all cognitive tasks compared with TUG-single ( p < 0.0001), whereas TUG duration in the SOD was significantly increased only during the phonologic fluency task ( p < 0.01). In the ST, there was a significant difference in cognitive DTE between the subtraction and the phonologic fluency tasks ( p < 0.01). The highest cognitive cost was found in the subtraction task, whereas the highest cognitive benefit was shown in the phonologic fluency task. No significant cognitive DTE was found among the cognitive tasks in the SOD. Conclusion: For stroke persons with SOD, phonologic fluency is suitable to be used in the TUG-cognitive assessment. In contrast, subtraction (by 3s) is recommended for the assessment of TUG-cognitive in stroke persons who can perform subtraction.",2020,"During TUG-cognitive, TUG duration in the ST was significantly longer for all cognitive tasks compared with TUG-single ( p < 0.0001), whereas TUG duration in the SOD was significantly increased only during the phonologic fluency task ( p < 0.01).","['stroke persons with SOD, phonologic fluency', 'Both groups have a similar age range (ST: 59.3 ± 10.4 years and SOD: 62.0 ± 6.8 years) and stroke onset duration (ST: 44.13 ± 62.29 months and SOD: 42.34 ± 39.69 months', 'stroke patients', '23 persons with stroke but capable of completing subtraction (ST) and 19 persons with subtraction operation difficulties (SOD) participated', 'Patients With Stroke Characterized by Subtraction Operation Difficulties']","['TUG with a cognitive task (TUG-dual', 'TUG without a cognitive task (TUG-single) followed by a cognitive task when seated (cognitive-single']","['motor and cognitive performances', 'highest cognitive cost', 'TUG duration measured by OPAL accelerometer and cognitive-dual task effect (DTE)-were analyzed using repeated-measures analyses of variance (ANOVA', 'cognitive DTE', 'phonologic fluency', 'cognitive-dual task performance', 'phonologic fluency tasks', 'TUG duration in the SOD', 'number of correct responses']","[{'cui': 'C0038454', 'cui_str': 'Cerebrovascular accident'}, {'cui': 'C0027361', 'cui_str': 'Person'}, {'cui': 'C0038838', 'cui_str': 'Superoxide Dismutase'}, {'cui': 'C0439745', 'cui_str': 'Grouped'}, {'cui': 'C0001779', 'cui_str': 'Age'}, {'cui': 'C3542016', 'cui_str': 'Concept model range'}, {'cui': 'C5191376', 'cui_str': '10.4'}, {'cui': 'C0439234', 'cui_str': 'year'}, {'cui': 'C0206132', 'cui_str': 'Age-at-Onset'}, {'cui': 'C0449238', 'cui_str': 'Duration'}, {'cui': 'C0332177', 'cui_str': 'Monthly'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patient'}, {'cui': 'C0205197', 'cui_str': 'Complete'}, {'cui': 'C0038895', 'cui_str': 'operative procedures'}, {'cui': 'C1299586', 'cui_str': 'Difficulty'}, {'cui': 'C3875152', 'cui_str': 'Characterizes'}]","[{'cui': 'C1319201', 'cui_str': 'Timed up and go mobility test'}, {'cui': 'C0205173', 'cui_str': 'Double'}, {'cui': 'C0037179', 'cui_str': 'Single person'}, {'cui': 'C0332282', 'cui_str': 'Following'}, {'cui': 'C0277814', 'cui_str': 'Sitting position'}]","[{'cui': 'C0205250', 'cui_str': 'High'}, {'cui': 'C0010186', 'cui_str': 'Cost'}, {'cui': 'C1319201', 'cui_str': 'Timed up and go mobility test'}, {'cui': 'C0449238', 'cui_str': 'Duration'}, {'cui': 'C0079809', 'cui_str': 'Measure'}, {'cui': 'C0084990', 'cui_str': 'VPDA protocol'}, {'cui': 'C0205173', 'cui_str': 'Double'}, {'cui': 'C1280500', 'cui_str': 'Effect'}, {'cui': 'C0205341', 'cui_str': 'Repeat'}, {'cui': 'C0002780', 'cui_str': 'Analysis, Variance'}, {'cui': 'C0039333', 'cui_str': 'Task Performance'}, {'cui': 'C0038838', 'cui_str': 'Superoxide Dismutase'}, {'cui': 'C0237753', 'cui_str': 'Number'}, {'cui': 'C0205202', 'cui_str': 'Corrected'}]",23.0,0.0144992,"During TUG-cognitive, TUG duration in the ST was significantly longer for all cognitive tasks compared with TUG-single ( p < 0.0001), whereas TUG duration in the SOD was significantly increased only during the phonologic fluency task ( p < 0.01).","[{'ForeName': 'Ampha', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Pumpho', 'Affiliation': 'Faculty of Physical Therapy, Srinakharinwirot University, Nakhonnayok, Thailand.'}, {'ForeName': 'Nithinun', 'Initials': 'N', 'LastName': 'Chaikeeree', 'Affiliation': 'Faculty of Physical Therapy, Srinakharinwirot University, Nakhonnayok, Thailand.'}, {'ForeName': 'Vitoon', 'Initials': 'V', 'LastName': 'Saengsirisuwan', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Physiology, Faculty of Science, Mahidol University, Bangkok, Thailand.'}, {'ForeName': 'Rumpa', 'Initials': 'R', 'LastName': 'Boonsinsukh', 'Affiliation': 'Faculty of Physical Therapy, Srinakharinwirot University, Nakhonnayok, Thailand.'}]",Frontiers in neurology,['10.3389/fneur.2020.00262']
185,32391068,Effects of six month personalized endurance training on work ability in middle-aged sedentary women: a secondary analysis of a randomized controlled trial.,"Background
To test the effects of guided endurance training on work ability in middle-aged female hospital workers of various occupations.
Methods
We randomized 265 healthy, sedentary, middle-aged women (45-65 years) to an endurance training group (EG 210 min/week) or a wait-list control group (CG). At baseline and at 6-month follow-up, we assessed work ability (Work Ability Index [WAI]), physical activity (Freiburger activity questionnaire) and peak oxygen uptake (VO 2peak ) by cardiopulmonary exercise testing. To examine the influence of baseline work ability, participants were divided into poor-moderate (WAI 1, 7-36 points, n = 83), good (WAI 2, 37-43 points, n = 136) and excellent (WAI 3, 44-49 points, n = 46) WAI subgroups.
Results
Cardiorespiratory fitness improved significantly after 6 months in the EG but not in the CG. The WAI total score increased significantly in the EG (38.3 ± 5.0 to 39.8 ± 4.9 points) but not in the CG (39.4 ± 4.7 to 39.3 ± 4.9 points), with a significant difference between groups ( p < 0.01). In the EG, only the poor-moderate subgroup (WAI 1, 33.0 ± 2.9 to 36.6 ± 4.8 points, p < 0.05) increased the WAI total score, with this increase being significantly higher compared to the good (WAI 2, 40.2 ± 2.1 to, 40.4 ± 3.7 points) and excellent (WAI 3, 45.6 ± 1.5 to 45.7 ± 1.8 points) subgroup.
Conclusions
A 6-month guided exercise training intervention significantly increases cardiorespiratory fitness with concomitant improvements in work ability in middle-aged previously sedentary hospital employees. Women with low baseline work ability seem to particularly benefit from the intervention, which implies that similar interventions may be particularly beneficial for this group of individuals.

Patients with CRD may no longer accept conventional therapies as they are not in appropriate clinical conditions or they refuse to receive it. Given that inflammation is an essential component of CRD origin and progression, anti-inflammatory agents could be a therapeutic option with fenamates as one of the proposed choices. A prospective, randomized, double-blinded, 2-arm, parallel group, phase II-III clinical trial was performed involving 20 patients with CRD-PCa (with a prostate specific antigen level <100 ng/ml) that were undergoing androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) and did not accept any established treatment for that disease stage. In addition to ADT, 10 patients received placebo and 10 received mefenamic acid (500 mg orally every 12 h) for 6 months. The primary endpoint was the change in serum prostate-specific antigen (PSA) at 6 months. The PSA levels decreased significantly with mefenamic acid (an average 42% decrease), whereas there was an average 55% increase in the placebo group (P=0.024). In the patients treated with the placebo, 70% had biochemical disease progression (an increase of ≥25% in PSA levels), which did not occur in any of the patients treated with mefenamic acid (relative risk=0.12; 95% confidence interval, 0.01-0.85; P=0.033). There was a significant increase in quality of life (EQ-5D-5L score) and body mass index (BMI) with the experimental treatment. In conclusion, mefenamic acid administration decreased biochemical progression in patients with castration resistant PCa, improved their quality of life and increased their BMI. Future studies are required in order to strengthen the findings of the present clinical trial.

187,32391134,Are physical therapy pain levels affected by surgical approach in total hip arthroplasty? A randomized controlled trial.,"The main objective of this study was to evaluate the difference in pain levels during postoperative physical therapy pathways in patients who underwent a cement less total hip replacement either through a muscle sparing direct anterior approach (DAA), or the classic trans-gluteal lateral approach (LA). One hundred and twelve (112) patients were randomized into two equal groups. Baseline values of myoglobin levels were acquired prior to surgery and repeated at 6 hours postoperatively as a biomarker for muscle damage. Pain levels during the first passive and consecutive 3 active physical therapy sessions were noted using a visual analogue-numeric scale (VAS). Pain levels were also acquired at 6 weeks, 3 months, 6 months and 1 year, following a 20-meter (65.6 feet) walking test. Postoperative myoglobin (ng/mL) levels were significantly higher (p< 0.05) in the LA group (335.05±83.54) then the DAA group (237.71±57.54). Pain levels were significantly lower (p<0.001) in the DAA group for both passive (2.5±1.45 vs. 4.28±2.19) and active physical therapy sessions and there was a positive correlation between postoperative myoglobin levels and pain levels until 6 postoperative weeks.

188,32386720,"Raltegravir versus efavirenz in antiretroviral-naive pregnant women living with HIV (NICHD P1081): an open-label, randomised, controlled, phase 4 trial.","BACKGROUND
Although antiretroviral regimens containing integrase inhibitors rapidly suppress HIV viral load in non-pregnant adults, few published data from randomised controlled trials have compared the safety and efficacy of any integrase inhibitor to efavirenz when initiated during pregnancy. We compared safety and efficacy of antiretroviral therapy with either raltegravir or efavirenz in late pregnancy.
METHODS
An open-label, randomised controlled trial was done at 19 hospitals and clinics in Argentina, Brazil, South Africa, Tanzania, Thailand, and the USA. Antiretroviral-naive pregnant women (20-<37 weeks gestation) living with HIV were assigned to antiretroviral regimens containing either raltegravir (400 mg twice daily) or efavirenz (600 mg each night) plus lamivudine 150 mg and zidovudine 300 mg twice daily (or approved alternative backbone regimen), using a web-based, permuted-block randomisation stratified by gestational age and backbone regimen. The primary efficacy outcome was plasma HIV viral load below 200 copies per mL at (or near) delivery. The primary efficacy analysis included all women with a viral load measurement at (or near) delivery who had viral load of at least 200 copies per mL before treatment and no genotypic resistance to any study drugs; secondary analyses eliminated these exclusion criteria. The primary safety analyses included all women who received study drug, and their infants. This trial is registered with Clinicaltrials.gov, number NCT01618305.
FINDINGS
From Sep 5, 2013, to Dec 11, 2018, 408 women were enrolled (206 raltegravir, 202 efavirenz) and 394 delivered on-study (200 raltegravir, 194 efavirenz); 307 were included in the primary efficacy analysis (153 raltegravir, 154 efavirenz). 144 (94%) women in the raltegravir group and 129 (84%) in the efavirenz group met the primary efficacy outcome (absolute difference 10%, 95% CI 3-18; p=0·0015); the difference primarily occurred among women enrolling later in pregnancy (interaction p=0·040). Frequencies of severe or life-threatening adverse events were similar among mothers (30% in each group; 61 raltegravir, 59 efavirenz) and infants (25% in each group; 50 raltegravir, 48 efavirenz), with no treatment-related deaths.
INTERPRETATION
Our findings support major guidelines. The integrase inhibitor dolutegravir is currently a preferred regimen for the prevention of perinatal HIV transmission with raltegravir recommended as a preferred or alternative integrase inhibitor for pregnant women living with HIV.

189,32387214,"Efficacy of single layered intestinal anastomosis over double layered intestinal anastomosis-an open labelled, randomized controlled trial.","AIMS & OBJECTIVES
The hand-sewn method of bowel anastomosis is the most common because of its affordability, familiarity and easy availability of materials. It can be done in single or double layers, with different surgeons preferring one technique over the other. Double layer intestinal anastomosis (DLIA) is time-consuming, challenging to perform, and carries possibly a higher risk of devascularisation, infection, and necrosis. Studies conducted so far do not show a significant difference between the two, but have concluded that more studies are required to determine this definitively. This study attempted to see whether the single layer intestinal anastomosis (SLIA) is non-inferior to DLIA in terms of incidence of anastomotic leak. It also compared mortality, morbidity, and length of hospitalization (LOH) between the two groups.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
This was a parallel arm, open labelled, non-inferiority randomized controlled trial conducted in the department of surgery in a tertiary care centre between October 2016 and March 2018. Patients who fulfilled the inclusion criteria were randomly allotted to two groups: Patients undergoing SLIA and patients undergoing DLIA. After the procedure, all patients were assessed for anastomotic leak, morbidity, mortality and LOH in the postoperative period. A 3-month follow-up period was observed for complications.
RESULTS
A total of 106 patients were randomised, 52 in SLIA and 54 in DLIA. Baseline demographic and clinicopathological characteristics between the two groups were comparable. The most common indication for intestinal anastomosis was ostomy closure in both groups.

190,32289353,Risk of contamination when planning psychological therapy trials can be assessed using a simple framework.,"OBJECTIVES
The objective of this study was to develop and pilot a standard framework that could be used to assess risk of contamination in psychological therapy trials, at the protocol development stage.
STUDY DESIGN AND SETTING
We developed and piloted a risk of contamination framework on a sample of 100 psychological therapy trial protocols registered on the International Standard Randomised Controlled Trial Number (ISRCTN) registry (www.isrctn.com). We assessed all protocols as being low or high risk via three possible sources of contamination: 1) participants in the control arm, 2) participants in the intervention arm, 3) therapists in the intervention arm.
RESULTS
Overall, we found that the risk of contamination across all three sources was low for most studies (86 of 100 trial protocols; 86%). We identified 14 studies that had a potentially high risk for contamination. Most of these (N = 10) were identified as risk of contamination arising from a therapist in the intervention arm.
CONCLUSION
The risk of contamination framework we piloted in this study could be a helpful tool for researchers aiming to identify and manage risk of contamination in their trial protocol development. We found that the risk of contamination was relatively low in the psychological therapy trials we sampled for this study, as measured by our framework, and could usually be mitigated through reasonable adjustments to the study design.",2020,"Overall, we found that the risk of contamination across all three sources was low for most studies (86 of 100 trial protocols; 86%).","['contamination: 1) participants in the control arm, 2) participants in the intervention arm, 3) therapists in the intervention arm']",[],['risk of contamination'],"[{'cui': 'C0009932', 'cui_str': 'Control Groups'}, {'cui': 'C0003798', 'cui_str': 'Armenia'}, {'cui': 'C0184661', 'cui_str': 'Procedure'}]",[],"[{'cui': 'C0035647', 'cui_str': 'Risk of'}]",10.0,0.109149,"Overall, we found that the risk of contamination across all three sources was low for most studies (86 of 100 trial protocols; 86%).","[{'ForeName': 'Pamela', 'Initials': 'P', 'LastName': 'Jacobsen', 'Affiliation': ""Department of Psychology, University of Bath, Bath BA2 7AY; King's College London, Department of Psychology, Institute of Psychiatry, Psychology and Neuroscience (IoPPN), De Crespigny Park, London SE5 8AF.

Social anxiety, or anxiety about being evaluated in interpersonal situations, is a risk factor for condomless anal sex (CAS) among GBM (e.g., Hart & Heimberg, 2005; Hart, James, Purcell, & Farber, 2008). Social anxiety may also increase substance use in sexual situations, which is another risk factor for HIV/STIs in this risk group (Semple, Strathdee, Zians, McQuaid, & Patterson, 2011). The goal of the Sexual Confidence Study was to provide initial evidence of efficacy for a 10-session integrated cognitive-behavioral therapy for social anxiety, substance use management in sexual situations, and HIV sexual risk reduction for HIV-negative GBM. Diagnostic and self-report assessments were completed at baseline, posttreatment, 3-month follow-up, and 6-month follow-up. In this open trial design, we observed a 50% reduction in engagement in HIV/STI sexual risk behavior at 6-month follow-up. We also observed large uncontrolled treatment effect sizes for reductions in social anxiety disorder and problematic alcohol use. These preliminary findings suggest that the present treatment may offer an efficient way of concurrently reducing social anxiety, problematic alcohol use, and the risk of contracting HIV and STIs via CAS with serodiscordant partners among HIV-negative GBM.",2020,We also observed large uncontrolled treatment effect sizes for reductions in social anxiety disorder and problematic alcohol use.,"['Gay and Bisexual Men', 'gay and bisexual men (GBM']",['Integrated Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy'],"['HIV/STI sexual risk behavior', 'Social anxiety, or anxiety', 'Social anxiety']","[{'cui': 'C0019898', 'cui_str': 'Queers'}, {'cui': 'C0005639', 'cui_str': 'Bisexuality'}, {'cui': 'C0025266', 'cui_str': 'Man'}]","[{'cui': 'C0009244', 'cui_str': 'Cognitive therapy'}]","[{'cui': 'C0019682', 'cui_str': 'Human immunodeficiency virus'}, {'cui': 'C0036916', 'cui_str': 'Sexually transmitted infectious disease'}, {'cui': 'C0036864', 'cui_str': 'Sexual behavior'}, {'cui': 'C0086931', 'cui_str': 'Risk Behavior'}, {'cui': 'C0424166', 'cui_str': 'Social fear'}, {'cui': 'C0003467', 'cui_str': 'Anxiety'}]",,0.01273,We also observed large uncontrolled treatment effect sizes for reductions in social anxiety disorder and problematic alcohol use.,"[{'ForeName': 'Trevor A', 'Initials': 'TA', 'LastName': 'Hart', 'Affiliation': 'Ryerson University and University of Toronto.

192,32387014,[Repurposing of chlorpromazine in COVID-19 treatment: the reCoVery study].,"OBJECTIVES
The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic comprises a total of more than 2,350,000 cases and 160,000 deaths. The interest in anti-coronavirus drug development has been limited so far and effective methods to prevent or treat coronavirus infections in humans are still lacking. Urgent action is needed to fight this fatal coronavirus infection by reducing the number of infected people along with the infection contagiousness and severity. Since the beginning of the COVID-19 outbreak several weeks ago, we observe in GHU PARIS Psychiatrie & Neurosciences (Sainte-Anne hospital, Paris, France) a lower prevalence of symptomatic and severe forms of COVID-19 infections in psychiatric patients (∼4%) compared to health care professionals (∼14%). Similar observations have been noted in other psychiatric units in France and abroad. Our hypothesis is that psychiatric patients could be protected from severe forms of COVID-19 by their psychotropic treatments. Chlorpromazine (CPZ) is a phenothiazine derivative widely used in clinical routine in the treatment of acute and chronic psychoses. This first antipsychotic medication has been discovered in 1952 by Jean Delay and Pierre Deniker at Sainte-Anne hospital. In addition, to its antipsychotic effects, several in vitro studies have also demonstrated a CPZ antiviral activity via the inhibition of clathrin-mediated endocytosis. Recently, independent studies revealed that CPZ is an anti-MERS-CoV and an anti-SARS-CoV-1 drug. In comparison to other antiviral drugs, the main advantages of CPZ lie in its biodistribution: (i) preclinical and clinical studies have reported a high CPZ concentration in the lungs (20-200 times higher than in plasma), which is critical because of the respiratory tropism of SARS-CoV-2; (ii) CPZ is highly concentrated in saliva (30-100 times higher than in plasma) and could therefore reduce the contagiousness of COVID-19; (iii) CPZ can cross the blood-brain barrier and could therefore prevent the neurological forms of COVID-19.
METHODS
Our hypothesis is that CPZ could decrease the unfavorable evolution of COVID-19 infection in oxygen-requiring patients without the need for intensive care, but also reduce the contagiousness of SARS-CoV-2. At this end, we designed a pilot, phase III, multicenter, single blind, randomized controlled clinical trial. Efficacy of CPZ will be assessed according to clinical, biological and radiological criteria. The main objective is to demonstrate a shorter time to response (TTR) to treatment in the CPZ+standard-of-care (CPZ+SOC) group, compared to the SOC group. Response to treatment is defined by a reduction of at least one level of severity on the WHO-Ordinal Scale for Clinical Improvement (WHO-OSCI). The secondary objectives are to demonstrate in the CPZ+SOC group, compared to the SOC group: (A) superior clinical improvement; (B) a greater decrease in the biological markers of viral attack by SARS-CoV-2 (PCR, viral load); (C) a greater decrease in inflammatory markers (e.g. CRP and lymphopenia); (D) a greater decrease in parenchymal involvement (chest CT) on the seventh day post-randomization; (E) to define the optimal dosage of CPZ and its tolerance; (F) to evaluate the biological parameters of response to treatment, in particular the involvement of inflammatory cytokines. Patient recruitment along with the main and secondary objectives are in line with WHO 2020 COVID-19 guidelines.
CONCLUSION
This repositioning of CPZ as an anti-SARS-CoV-2 drug offers an alternative and rapid strategy to alleviate the virus propagation and the infection severity and lethality. This CPZ repositioning strategy also avoids numerous developmental and experimental steps and can save precious time to rapidly establish an anti-COVID-19 therapy with well-known, limited and easy to manage side effects. Indeed, CPZ is an FDA-approved drug with an excellent tolerance profile, prescribed for around 70 years in psychiatry but also in clinical routine in nausea and vomiting of pregnancy, in advanced cancer and also to treat headaches in various neurological conditions. The broad spectrum of CPZ treatment - including antipsychotic, anxiolytic, antiemetic, antiviral, immunomodulatory effects along with inhibition of clathrin-mediated endocytosis and modulation of blood-brain barrier - is in line with the historical French commercial name for CPZ, i.e. LARGACTIL, chosen as a reference to its ""LARGe ACTion"" properties. The discovery of those CPZ properties, as for many other molecules in psychiatry, is both the result of serendipity and careful clinical observations. Using this approach, the field of mental illness could provide innovative therapeutic approaches to fight SARS-CoV-2.",2020,The interest in anti-coronavirus drug development has been limited so far and effective methods to prevent or treat coronavirus infections in humans are still lacking.,['psychiatric patients'],"['Chlorpromazine (CPZ', 'CPZ', 'chlorpromazine', 'phenothiazine derivative']","['biological markers of viral attack by SARS-CoV-2 (PCR, viral load); (C) a greater decrease in inflammatory markers (e.g. CRP and lymphopenia', 'parenchymal involvement (chest CT', 'shorter time to response (TTR']","[{'cui': 'C0748064', 'cui_str': 'Psychiatric in-patient'}]","[{'cui': 'C0008286', 'cui_str': 'Chlorpromazine'}, {'cui': 'C0304370', 'cui_str': 'Phenothiazine derivative'}]","[{'cui': 'C0005516', 'cui_str': 'Biological Markers'}, {'cui': 'C0521026', 'cui_str': 'viruses'}, {'cui': 'C0004063', 'cui_str': 'Assault'}, {'cui': 'C0032520', 'cui_str': 'Polymerase chain reaction'}, {'cui': 'C0376705', 'cui_str': 'Viral Burden'}, {'cui': 'C0205393', 'cui_str': 'Most'}, {'cui': 'C0205216', 'cui_str': 'Decreased'}, {'cui': 'C0006560', 'cui_str': 'C reactive protein'}, {'cui': 'C0024312', 'cui_str': 'Lymphocytopenia'}, {'cui': 'C1314939', 'cui_str': 'Involvement'}, {'cui': 'C0202823', 'cui_str': 'CT of chest'}, {'cui': 'C0453933', 'cui_str': 'Shorts'}, {'cui': 'C0040223', 'cui_str': 'Time'}]",,0.0622901,The interest in anti-coronavirus drug development has been limited so far and effective methods to prevent or treat coronavirus infections in humans are still lacking.,"[{'ForeName': 'M', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Plaze', 'Affiliation': 'GHU Paris psychiatrie et neurosciences, site Sainte-Anne, service hospitalo-universitaire, pôle hospitalo-universitaire Paris 15, Paris, France; Université de Paris, Paris, France.

194,32393479,"Comparison of a new versus standard removable offloading device in patients with neuropathic diabetic foot ulcers: a French national, multicentre, open-label randomized, controlled trial.","INTRODUCTION
The offloading is crucial to heal neuropathic diabetic foot ulcer (DFU). Removable offloading are the most used devices. Orthèse diabète is a new customized removable knee-high offloading device immobilizing foot and ankle joints, with some specific and innovative features that may improve offloading. We aimed to evaluate the efficiency of this device in DFU healing.
RESEARCH, DESIGN AND METHODS
The evaluation of Offloading using a new removable ORTHOsis in DIABetic foot study is a French multicenter (13 centers) randomized controlled trial with blinded end points evaluation. Adults with neuropathic DFU were randomly assigned to either Orthèse Diabète (experimental device ), or any type of conventional (usually used in France) removable offloading devices (control group). The primary outcome was the 3-month proportion of patients with fully healed DFU.
RESULTS
Among 112 randomized patients (men 78%, age 62±10 years), the primary outcome occurred in 19 (33%) participants using conventional device vs 19 (35%) Orthèse Diabète users (p=0.79). Study groups were also comparable in terms of prespecified secondary end points including occurrence of new DFU (25% vs 27% in conventional and experimental groups), ipsilateral lower-limb amputation (4% vs 10%) or infectious complications (14% vs 13%) (p>0.05 for all). Adverse events were comparable between groups, including 4 deaths unrelated to study allocation (1 sudden death, 2 ventricular arrhythmias and 1 pancreatic cancer). Adverse events believed to be related to the device were higher in the Orthèse Diabète group than in the control group (15% vs 4%). Orthèse Diabète was less frequently worn than conventional devices (46% vs 66%, p=0.04).
CONCLUSIONS
Orthèse Diabète , a new removable offloading orthosis immobilizing foot and ankle joints did not show superiority compared with conventional removable devices in neuropathic DFU healing and cannot be recommended to heal DFU.

195,32393654,Strengthening effects of bone marrow mononuclear cells with intensive atorvastatin in acute myocardial infarction.,"OBJECTIVE
To test whether intensive atorvastatin (ATV) increases the efficacy of transplantation with autologous bone marrow mononuclear cells (MNCs) in patients suffering from anterior ST-elevated myocardial infarction (STEMI).
METHODS
This clinical trial was under a 2×2 factorial design, enrolling 100 STEMI patients, randomly into four groups of regular (RA) or intensive ATV (IA) with MNCs or placebo. The primary endpoint was the change of left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) at 1-year follow-up from baseline, primarily assessed by MRI. The secondary endpoints included other parameters of cardiac function, remodelling and regeneration determined by MRI, echocardiography, positron emission tomography (PET) and biomarkers.
RESULTS
All the STEMI patients with transplantation of MNCs showed significantly increased LVEF change values than those with placebo (p=0.01) with only in the IA+MNCs patients group demonstrating significantly elevation of LVEF than in the IA+placebo group (+12.6% (95%CI 10.4 to 19.3) vs +5.0% (95%CI 4.0 to 10.0), p=0.001), pointing to a better synergy between ATV and MNCs (p=0.019). PET analysis revealed significantly increased viable areas of myocardium (p=0.015), while the scar sizes (p=0.026) and blood aminoterminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (p<0.034) reduced. All these above benefits of MNCs were also attributed to IA+MNCs instead of RA+MNCs group of patients with STEMI.
CONCLUSIONS
Intensive ATV treatment augments the therapeutic efficacy of MNCs in patients with anterior STEMI at the convalescent stage. The treatment with the protocol of intensive ATV and MNC combination offers a clinically essential approach for myocardial infarction.

196,30677788,Targeting the hepcidin-ferroportin pathway in anaemia of chronic kidney disease.,"AIMS
Erythropoiesis-stimulating agents used to treat anaemia in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) have been associated with cardiovascular adverse events. Hepcidin production, controlled by bone morphogenic protein 6 (BMP6), regulates iron homeostasis via interactions with the iron transporter, ferroportin. High hepcidin levels are thought to contribute to increased iron sequestration and subsequent anaemia in CKD patients. To investigate alternative therapies to erythropoiesis-stimulating agents for CKD patients, monoclonal antibodies, LY3113593 and LY2928057, targeting BMP6 and ferroportin respectively, were tested in CKD patients.
METHODS
Preclinical in vitro/vivo data and clinical data in healthy subjects and CKD patients were used to illustrate the translation of pharmacological properties of LY3113593 and LY2928057, highlighting the novelty of targeting these nodes within the hepcidin-ferroportin pathway.
RESULTS
LY2928057 bound ferroportin and blocked interactions with hepcidin, allowing iron efflux, leading to increased serum iron and transferrin saturation levels and increased hepcidin in monkeys and humans. In CKD patients, LY2928057 led to slower haemoglobin decline and reduction in ferritin (compared to placebo). Serum iron increase was (mean [90% confidence interval]) 1.98 [1.46-2.68] and 1.36 [1.22-1.51] fold-relative to baseline following LY2928057 600 mg and LY311593 150 mg respectively in CKD patients. LY3113593 specifically blocked BMP6 binding to its receptor and produced increases in iron and transferrin saturation and decreases in hepcidin preclinically and clinically. In CKD patients, LY3113593 produced an increase in haemoglobin and reduction in ferritin (compared to placebo).
CONCLUSION
LY3113593 and LY2928057 pharmacological effects (serum iron and ferritin) were translated from preclinical-to-clinical development. Such interventions may lead to new CKD anaemia treatments.",2019,LY3113593 specifically blocked BMP6 binding to its receptor and produced increases in iron and transferrin saturation and decreases in hepcidin preclinically and clinically.,"['patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD', 'healthy subjects and CKD patients']",[],"['haemoglobin and reduction in ferritin', 'serum iron and transferrin saturation levels', 'Serum iron increase', 'haemoglobin decline and reduction in ferritin', 'iron and transferrin saturation', 'LY3113593 and LY2928057 pharmacological effects (serum iron and ferritin']","[{'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patient'}, {'cui': 'C1561643', 'cui_str': 'Chronic kidney disease'}, {'cui': 'C1708335', 'cui_str': 'Healthy Participants'}]",[],"[{'cui': 'C0019046', 'cui_str': 'Hemoglobin'}, {'cui': 'C0301630', 'cui_str': 'Reduction (chemical)'}, {'cui': 'C0015879', 'cui_str': 'Ferritin'}, {'cui': 'C1318312', 'cui_str': 'Serum iron measurement'}, {'cui': 'C1277709', 'cui_str': 'Transferrin saturation'}, {'cui': 'C0441889', 'cui_str': 'Levels'}, {'cui': 'C0151900', 'cui_str': 'Serum iron raised'}, {'cui': 'C0082568', 'cui_str': 'ferryl iron'}, {'cui': 'C0031330', 'cui_str': 'Pharmacology'}, {'cui': 'C1280500', 'cui_str': 'Effect'}]",,0.0235518,LY3113593 specifically blocked BMP6 binding to its receptor and produced increases in iron and transferrin saturation and decreases in hepcidin preclinically and clinically.,"[{'ForeName': 'Matthew', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Sheetz', 'Affiliation': 'Eli Lilly and Company, Indianapolis, Indiana, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Philip', 'Initials': 'P', 'LastName': 'Barrington', 'Affiliation': 'Eli Lilly and Company, Windlesham, Surrey, UK.'}, {'ForeName': 'Sophie', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Callies', 'Affiliation': 'Eli Lilly and Company, Paris, France.'}, {'ForeName': 'Paul H', 'Initials': 'PH', 'LastName': 'Berg', 'Affiliation': 'Eli Lilly and Company, Indianapolis, Indiana, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Juliet', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'McColm', 'Affiliation': 'Eli Lilly and Company, Windlesham, Surrey, UK.'}, {'ForeName': 'Thomas', 'Initials': 'T', 'LastName': 'Marbury', 'Affiliation': 'Orlando Clinical Research Center, Orlando, Florida, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Brian', 'Initials': 'B', 'LastName': 'Decker', 'Affiliation': 'Indiana University School of Medicine, Indianapolis, Indiana, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Gregory L', 'Initials': 'GL', 'LastName': 'Dyas', 'Affiliation': 'Eli Lilly and Company, Indianapolis, Indiana, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Stephanie M E', 'Initials': 'SME', 'LastName': 'Truhlar', 'Affiliation': 'Eli Lilly and Company, San Diego, California, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Robert', 'Initials': 'R', 'LastName': 'Benschop', 'Affiliation': 'Eli Lilly and Company, Indianapolis, Indiana, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Donmienne', 'Initials': 'D', 'LastName': 'Leung', 'Affiliation': 'Eli Lilly and Company, San Diego, California, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Jolene', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Berg', 'Affiliation': 'DaVita Clinical Research, Minneapolis, Minnesota, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Derrick R', 'Initials': 'DR', 'LastName': 'Witcher', 'Affiliation': 'Eli Lilly and Company, Indianapolis, Indiana, USA.'}]",British journal of clinical pharmacology,['10.1111/bcp.13877']
197,32394218,Landiolol hydrochloride for prevention of atrial fibrillation during esophagectomy: a randomized controlled trial.,"INTRODUCTION
Landiolol hydrochloride reduces the incidence of perioperative atrial fibrillation (AF) in cardiac surgery; however, little evidence is available regarding its effects in other types of surgery, including esophagectomy. We assessed the hypothesis that landiolol reduces perioperative AF and other complications associated with esophagectomy.
METHODS
This single-center, randomized, double-blind, parallel-group study enrolled patients scheduled for esophagectomy. Patients were divided into those given landiolol at 3 μg/kg/min or placebo for 24 h. The primary outcome was the proportion of patients who developed AF within 96 h starting at 9:00 AM on the day of surgery. The secondary outcomes were the proportion of patients whose AF appeared within 24 h, other complications based on the Clavien-Dindo classification, and the intensive care unit and hospital stays.
RESULTS
Despite early study termination, 80 patients were screened, and 56 were enrolled (28/group) from September 2016 to June 2018. AF occurred within 96 h of surgery in six (21.4%) patients in the landiolol group and five (17.9%) patients in the placebo group (odds ratio, 1.26; 95% confidence interval, 0.33-4.7) and within 24 h of surgery in three (10.7%) patients in the landiolol group and two (7.1%) patients in the placebo group. There were no significant differences in the incidence of complications or in the number of intensive care unit or hospital stays between the groups.
CONCLUSION
Although our small sample size prevents definitive conclusions, landiolol might not reduce the occurrence of AF or other complications.

The study involves a secondary data analysis. Forty smokers were recruited to participate in a single-arm pilot study. Participants received an mHealth intervention that uses tablet-based decision support software to drive a 12-week text messaging smoking cessation program and pharmacotherapy support. The intervention allows two-way interactivity text messaging between participants and a tobacco treatment specialist. NRT was offered to participants in accordance with practice guidelines in Mexico. Outcome measures included utilization of NRT, text messaging interactivity with the program, and biochemically verified abstinence at 12 weeks.
RESULTS
Thirty smokers met the criteria for use of NRT. Average age of participants was 38.1 years (SD=10.7), and they were primarily male (56.7%) with at least an undergraduate degree (60%). All participants requested NRT at baseline, and 60% requested a refill at week 4. During the 12-week intervention period, participants sent 620 messages to the program (mean=20.6, SD=18.34) of which 79 messages (12.7%) were related to NRT. Three themes were identified in the messages related to NRT: enthusiasm, instructions, and side effects. At 12 weeks, 40% of participants reported using NRT <75% of the days. Finally, 30% of participants (9/30) were biochemically verified abstinent using intention-to-treat analysis at 12 weeks.

200,32395278,Development and validation of nomograms for predicting overall and cancer-specific survival in young patients with non-small cell lung cancer.,"Background
Young patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) represent a distinct subgroup of patients with this disease. This study aimed to construct nomograms to predict the overall survival (OS) and cancer-specific survival (CSS) of young patients with NSCLC.
Methods
NSCLC patients under 50 years old diagnosed between 2010 and 2016 were selected from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database and randomly divided into training (n=1,357) and validation (n=678) cohorts at a ratio of 2:1. Independent prognostic factors for OS or CSS were identified through the log-rank test, Cox proportional hazards models or competing risk model and further integrated to construct nomograms. The predictive capability of the nomogram was assessed by Harrell's concordance index (C-index), the calibration curve and risk group stratification.
Results
A total of 2,035 patients were enrolled. In the training cohort, insurance, marital status, histological type, grade, T stage, N stage and surgery were identified as independent prognostic for OS and CSS. The C-index value were 0.759 [95% confidence interval (CI): 0.731-0.787] for OS and 0.810 (95% CI: 0.803-0.818) for BCSS in the training cohort and 0.751 (95% CI: 0.711-0.790) for OS and 0.807 (95% CI: 0.795-0.819) for CSS in the validation cohort. The calibration curves showed optimal agreement between the predicted and actual survival both in internal and external validation. In addition, patients in the validation cohort within different risk groups exhibited significantly different survival even in each TNM stage.
Conclusions
Nomograms were developed and validated to predict OS and CSS of young patients with NSCLC in our study.

201,32395294,Spontaneous ventilation versus mechanical ventilation during video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery for spontaneous pneumothorax: a study protocol for multicenter randomized controlled trial.,"Background
With the evolution and adoption of video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS), options for anesthesia control have also seen major developments. Intubated anesthesia with single lung mechanical ventilation VATS (MV-VATS) is considered the standard of care in VATS. However, this type of ventilation strategy has been associated with several adverse effects, which can trigger complications and increase the overall surgical risk. In order to avoid intubated anesthesia related adverse effects, non-intubated spontaneous ventilation VATS (SV-VATS) strategies have been proposed in recent years and widely applied.
Methods
We established a two-arm parallel multicenter randomized controlled trial for comparative analysis of the outcomes of patients undergoing either SV-VATS or MV-VATS for spontaneous pneumothorax. Outcomes of interest include safety during operation, total analgesic dose, recovery time, postoperative complication rates, postoperative pain score, length of hospitalization, inflammation index, medical cost, etc. The recruitment target is 316 patients. Patients will be eligible if their chest CT is diagnosed with ""localized lung bullae"" and need VATS resection. Patients will be randomized into the SV-VATS (test group) or MV-VATS (control group) after signing informed consent and surgical anesthesia evaluation.
Discussion
This protocol has been approved by the Research Ethics Committee of the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical university. Results will be presented at national and international meetings and conferences and published in peer-reviewed journals. We will also disseminate the main results to all participants in a letter. Non-intubated SV-VATS offered a more individual choice of anesthetics and surgical method for spontaneous pneumothorax patients.

202,32395319,Long-term results of a single-center prospective randomized trial assessing efficacy of a shortened course of adjuvant chemotherapy after radical cystectomy in patients with locally advanced bladder cancer.,"Introduction
This study assesses the efficacy and tolerability of two cycles of adjuvant chemotherapy (AC) with gemcitabine and cisplatin after radical cystectomy in patients with a high risk of progression of muscle-invasive urothelial bladder cancer as compared to chemotherapy at relapse, in a prospective randomized study.
Material and methods
From 2008 to 2013, all patients after radical cystectomy at our institution for primary or recurrent urothelial bladder cancer with stage pT3-4 and/or pN+ on histopathology and without contraindications to combination cisplatin-based chemotherapy, were randomized either to two cycles of gemcitabine and cisplatin chemotherapy or to follow-up and chemotherapy at the time of relapse. The study endpoints were overall, cancer-specific, and disease-free survival.
Results
The study included 100 patients, of whom 53 received AC and the other 47 were assigned to the control arm. Out of 53 allocated to AC arm, 16 patients did not start chemotherapy or received only one cycle of AC. The median follow-up for patients in the AC and control arms was 88 and 86 months, respectively. In the AC arm the hazard ratio for death from any cause, death from bladder cancer, and disease relapse were 0.70 (95% CI 0.45-1.11; p = 0.13), 0.84 (95% CI 0.50-1.41; p = 0.51), and 0.77 (95% CI 0.46-1.28; p = 0.31), respectively.

203,32395324,Efficacy and safety of fURS in stones larger than 20 mm: is it still the threshold?,"Introduction
The aim of this article was to evaluate the safety and efficiency of flexible ureteroscopy (fURS) in the management of renal calculi larger than 20 mm.
Material and methods
A total of 92 cases with renal calculi were managed with fURS and divided into two groups depending on the size of the stones; <20 mm and >20 mm (Group 1 and Group 2, respectively). The groups were compared with respect to treatment-related parameters including success, complication rates, hospitalization period and need for auxiliary procedures with an emphasis on the rate of infections. Success rates were also compared in each group according to stone location.
Results
Overall success rates after 3 months showed that stone-free rates in both groups were 84.1% (< 20 mm) and 58.33% (>20 mm) respectively (p = 0.008). The success rates of upper/mid pole (100% vs. 80%) and pelvis stones (83.3% vs. 75%) showed no statistically significant difference (p = 0.5, p = 0.51 respectively). Success rates for stones located in the lower pole were 75% vs. 14.28% respectively (p = 0.008). The rate of infectious complications was significantly higher in cases undergoing fURS for relatively larger stones (22.9%) as compared to smaller calculi (6.8%) (p = 0.032).

204,32396095,Home-Based Functional Electrical Stimulation-Assisted Hand Therapy Video Games for Children with Hemiplegia: Development and Proof-of-Concept.,"We describe the development and three case reports of a home-based intervention for children with hand hemiplegia that integrates custom video games with contralaterally controlled functional electrical stimulation (CCFES). With CCFES, stimulated opening of the more-affected hand is modulated by volitional opening of the less-affected hand. Video games that solicit goal-oriented, skill-requiring movement have shown promise for treating hemiplegia, but they have not previously been combined with electrical stimulation in children. Three children ages 8, 9, and 11 with moderate-to-severe hand hemiplegia were assigned six weeks of therapy in lab and at home. The goal was to determine if children could tolerate 9 lab treatment sessions and administer up to 7.5 hrs/wk of CCFES video game therapy at home. The feasibility of this intervention for home use was assessed by device logs, end-of-treatment interviews, and motor function/impairment assessments. With caregiver help, the children were all able to attend 9 lab sessions and built up to 7.5 hrs/wk of therapy by week 3. They averaged 5-7 hrs/wk of home intervention overall. Motor outcomes improved for all three participants at treatment end, but mostly regressed at 4-weeks follow-up. Individual improvements at treatment end exceeded minimum detectable or clinically important thresholds for Assisting Hands Assessment, Fugl-Meyer Assessment, and Melbourne Motor Assessment 2. We found preliminary indications that CCFES-integrated video game therapy can provide a high dose of hand motor control therapy at home and in the lab.

205,32396179,Effect of Surgery vs Functional Bracing on Functional Outcome Among Patients With Closed Displaced Humeral Shaft Fractures: The FISH Randomized Clinical Trial.,"Importance
Humeral shaft fractures traditionally have been treated nonsurgically, but there has been a steady increase in the rate of surgery over the past 2 decades without high-quality evidence to justify the trend.
Objective
To compare the effectiveness of surgical treatment with open reduction and internal plate fixation to nonsurgical treatment with functional bracing in the treatment of closed humeral shaft fractures.
Design, Setting, and Participants
Randomized clinical trial conducted at 2 university hospital trauma centers in Finland, enrollment between November 2012 and January 2018 with a final follow-up of January 2019. A total of 82 adult patients with closed, unilateral, displaced humeral shaft fracture met criteria for inclusion. Patients were excluded if they had cognitive disabilities preventing them from following the protocol or had multimorbidity or multiple trauma.
Interventions
Patients were randomly assigned to surgical treatment with open reduction and internal plate fixation (n = 38) or to nonsurgical treatment with functional bracing (n = 44).
Main Outcome and Measure
The primary outcome was Disabilities of Arm, Shoulder and Hand (DASH) score at 12 months (range, 0 to 100 points, 0 denotes no disability and 100 extreme disability; minimal clinically important difference, 10 points).
Results
Among 82 patients who were randomized (mean age, 48.9 years; 38 women [46%]; 44 men [54%]), 78 (95%) completed the trial. Thirteen (30%) of the patients assigned to functional bracing underwent surgery during the 12-month follow-up period to promote healing of the fracture. At 12 months, the mean DASH score was 8.9 (95% CI, 4.2 to 13.6) in the surgery group and 12.0 (95% CI, 7.7 to 16.4) in the bracing group (between-group difference, -3.1 points; 95% CI, -9.6 to 3.3; P = .34). Eleven patients (25%) allocated to functional bracing developed fracture nonunion. Three patients (8%) allocated to surgery developed a temporary radial nerve palsy.
Conclusions and Relevance
Among patients with closed humeral shaft fracture, internal fixation surgery, compared with nonoperative functional bracing, did not significantly improve functional outcomes at 12 months. However, the substantial amount of treatment crossover from nonoperative to surgical treatment should be considered when interpreting the trial results.

206,32396180,Effect of Biomechanical Footwear on Knee Pain in People With Knee Osteoarthritis: The BIOTOK Randomized Clinical Trial.,"Importance
Individually calibrated biomechanical footwear therapy may improve pain and physical function in people with symptomatic knee osteoarthritis, but the benefits of this therapy are unclear.
Objective
To assess the effect of a biomechanical footwear therapy vs control footwear over 24 weeks of follow-up.
Design, Setting, and Participants
Randomized clinical trial conducted at a Swiss university hospital. Participants (N = 220) with symptomatic, radiologically confirmed knee osteoarthritis were recruited between April 20, 2015, and January 10, 2017. The last participant visit occurred on August 15, 2017.
Interventions
Participants were randomized to biomechanical footwear involving shoes with individually adjustable external convex pods attached to the outsole (n = 111) or to control footwear (n = 109) that had visible outsole pods that were not adjustable and did not create a convex walking surface.
Main Outcomes and Measures
The primary outcome was knee pain at 24 weeks of follow-up assessed with the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) pain subscore standardized to range from 0 (no symptoms) to 10 (extreme symptoms). The secondary outcomes included WOMAC physical function and stiffness subscores and the WOMAC global score, all ranging from 0 (no symptoms) to 10 (extreme symptoms) at 24 weeks of follow-up, and serious adverse events.
Results
Among the 220 randomized participants (mean age, 65.2 years [SD, 9.3 years]; 104 women [47.3%]), 219 received the allocated treatment and 213 (96.8%) completed follow-up. At 24 weeks of follow-up, the mean standardized WOMAC pain subscore improved from 4.3 to 1.3 in the biomechanical footwear group and from 4.0 to 2.6 in the control footwear group (between-group difference in scores at 24 weeks of follow-up, -1.3 [95% CI, -1.8 to -0.9]; P < .001). The results were consistent for WOMAC physical function subscore (between-group difference, -1.1 [95% CI, -1.5 to -0.7]), WOMAC stiffness subscore (between-group difference, -1.4 [95% CI, -1.9 to -0.9]), and WOMAC global score (between-group difference, -1.2 [95% CI, -1.6 to -0.8]) at 24 weeks of follow-up. Three serious adverse events occurred in the biomechanical footwear group compared with 9 in the control footwear group (2.7% vs 8.3%, respectively); none were related to treatment.
Conclusions and Relevance
Among participants with knee pain from osteoarthritis, use of biomechanical footwear compared with control footwear resulted in an improvement in pain at 24 weeks of follow-up that was statistically significant but of uncertain clinical importance. Further research would be needed to assess long-term efficacy and safety, as well as replication, before reaching conclusions about the clinical value of this device.

207,32394821,[Evaluation of a Manualized Group Program for Siblings of Children with Diseases or Disabilities].,"Evaluation of a Manualized Group Program for Siblings of Children with Diseases or Disabilities This study evaluates a manualized group program for siblings of children with life-threatening/life-limiting diseases or disabilities. The program aims to activate resources and to reduce emotional and behavioral problems, using cognitive-behavioral methods and experience-based interventions. In this multi-center study, 13 GeschwisterTREFFs were conducted by 11 study sites in Germany. Prior to and after the intervention 97 siblings aged 7 to 14 years and their parents were examined with standardized questionnaires. At baseline, the siblings of children with diseases or disabilities showed significant more emotional and behavioral problems compared to the respective norm samples. After the intervention, the siblings reported declined problem behavior scores that were mostly in the range of the particular norm values. Furthermore, the children indicated a significant improvement of self-esteem, self-efficacy, school competences and relations to their siblings.

208,32395379,Pro-inflammatory Cytokine Levels and Cancer-related Fatigue in Breast Cancer Survivors: Effects of an Exercise Adherence Program.,"Purpose
This study aimed to determine the effect of an exercise intervention on subjective cancer-related fatigue (CRF) and pro-inflammatory cytokine levels in breast cancer survivors (BCS).
Methods
BCS with greater than moderate CRF (≥ 4) were recruited and randomly assigned to experimental or control groups. The experimental group participated in a 12-week exercise adherence program (Better Life after Cancer - Energy, Strength, and Support; BLESS). Interleukin (IL)-6 and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) levels were determined at 3 time points (M1: baseline, M2: post-intervention, and M4: 6 months after intervention). Subjective fatigue was measured using the Korean version of the revised Piper Fatigue Scale.
Results
In this analysis of participants with physiological fatigue measures available (19 experimental, 21 control), there were no statistically significant differences in IL-6 (F = 1.157, p = 0.341), TNF-α levels (F = 0.878, p = 0.436), and level of fatigue (F = 2.067, p = 0.118) between the 2 groups at baseline. Fatigue in the experimental group showed statistically significant improvement compared to the control only at M2 ( p = 0.022). There was no significant relationship between subjective and physiological fatigue at the 3 measurement points.
Conclusion
The BLESS intervention improved CRF in BCS immediately at post-intervention, and this study presents clinical feasibility for the management of CRF in BCS in the early survivorship phase who are already experiencing fatigue.",2020,Fatigue in the experimental group showed statistically significant improvement compared to the control only at M2 ( p = 0.022).,"['Breast Cancer Survivors', 'breast cancer survivors (BCS']","['exercise intervention', 'Interleukin ', 'Exercise Adherence Program', 'exercise adherence program (Better Life after Cancer - Energy, Strength, and Support; BLESS']","['subjective cancer-related fatigue (CRF) and pro-inflammatory cytokine levels', 'TNF-α levels', 'IL)-6 and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) levels', 'Fatigue', 'IL-6', 'Subjective fatigue', 'level of fatigue', 'subjective and physiological fatigue']","[{'cui': 'C0006142', 'cui_str': 'Malignant tumor of breast'}, {'cui': 'C0206194', 'cui_str': 'Survivors'}]","[{'cui': 'C0015259', 'cui_str': 'Exercise'}, {'cui': 'C0184661', 'cui_str': 'Procedure'}, {'cui': 'C0021764', 'cui_str': 'Interleukin'}, {'cui': 'C2364055', 'cui_str': 'Compliant behavior'}, {'cui': 'C0018106', 'cui_str': 'Government Programs'}, {'cui': 'C0038848', 'cui_str': 'Supplies'}, {'cui': 'C0376558', 'cui_str': 'Life'}, {'cui': 'C0006826', 'cui_str': 'Malignant neoplastic disease'}, {'cui': 'C0183683', 'cui_str': 'Support'}]","[{'cui': 'C0439655', 'cui_str': 'Subjective'}, {'cui': 'C4274302', 'cui_str': 'Cancer-related fatigue'}, {'cui': 'C0033382', 'cui_str': 'Proline'}, {'cui': 'C0079189', 'cui_str': 'Cytokine'}, {'cui': 'C0441889', 'cui_str': 'Levels'}, {'cui': 'C0041368', 'cui_str': 'TNF Receptor Ligands'}, {'cui': 'C0015672', 'cui_str': 'Fatigue'}, {'cui': 'C0021760', 'cui_str': 'Interleukin-6'}, {'cui': 'C2586108', 'cui_str': 'Level of fatigue'}, {'cui': 'C0205463', 'cui_str': 'Physiologic'}]",,0.0334036,Fatigue in the experimental group showed statistically significant improvement compared to the control only at M2 ( p = 0.022).,"[{'ForeName': 'Sung Hae', 'Initials': 'SH', 'LastName': 'Kim', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Nursing, College of Health.

209,32395387,Efficacy of non-surgical treatment accompanied by professional toothbrushing in the treatment of chronic periodontitis in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus: a randomized controlled clinical trial.,"Purpose
The present study aimed to evaluate the clinical benefit of additional toothbrushing accompanying non-surgical periodontal treatment on oral and general health in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).
Methods
We conducted a doubled-blind randomized controlled trial in 60 T2DM patients between June 2013 and June 2014. The patients were randomly assigned to the scaling and root planing (SRP) group; the scaling and root planing with additional toothbrushing (SRPAT) group, in which additional toothbrushing was performed by toothpick methods; or the control group. Microbiological and oral examinations were performed for up to 12 weeks following treatment. Non-surgical treatment was conducted in the experimental groups. The SRP group received scaling and root planing and the SRPAT group received additional toothbrushing with the Watanabe method once a week from the first visit through the fifth visit. The primary outcomes were changes in haemoglobin A1c (or glycated haemoglobin; HbA1c) levels, serum endotoxin levels, and interleukin-1 beta levels. Periodontal health status was measured by periodontal pocket depth, the calculus index, and bleeding on probing (BOP).
Results
Both the SRP and SRPAT groups showed improvements in periodontal health and HbA1c, but the SRPAT group showed significantly less BOP than the SRP group. Furthermore, only the SRPAT group showed a statistically significant decrease in serum endotoxin levels.
Conclusions
Non-surgical periodontal treatment was effective in improving HbA1c and serum endotoxin levels in T2DM patients. Furthermore, non-surgical treatment with additional tooth brushing had a more favourable effect on gingival bleeding management.Trial RegistrationClinical Research Information Service Identifier: KCT000416.",2020,"Both the SRP and SRPAT groups showed improvements in periodontal health and HbA1c, but the SRPAT group showed significantly less BOP than the SRP group.","['patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus', 'patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM', '60 T2DM patients between June 2013 and June 2014', 'T2DM patients']","['scaling and root planing (SRP) group; the scaling and root planing with additional toothbrushing (SRPAT', 'additional toothbrushing accompanying non-surgical periodontal treatment', 'non-surgical treatment accompanied by professional toothbrushing']","['changes in haemoglobin A1c (or glycated haemoglobin; HbA1c) levels, serum endotoxin levels, and interleukin-1 beta levels', 'periodontal pocket depth, the calculus index, and bleeding on probing (BOP', 'Periodontal health status', 'BOP', 'periodontal health and HbA1c', 'HbA1c and serum endotoxin levels', 'serum endotoxin levels', 'chronic periodontitis', 'gingival bleeding management']","[{'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patient'}, {'cui': 'C0332307', 'cui_str': 'Type - attribute'}, {'cui': 'C0011849', 'cui_str': 'Diabetes mellitus'}, {'cui': 'C0011860', 'cui_str': 'Type 2 diabetes mellitus'}]","[{'cui': 'C0175659', 'cui_str': 'Scale'}, {'cui': 'C0085287', 'cui_str': 'Root planing of tooth'}, {'cui': 'C0439745', 'cui_str': 'Grouped'}, {'cui': 'C0040452', 'cui_str': 'Tooth root structure'}, {'cui': 'C0270724', 'cui_str': 'Infantile neuroaxonal dystrophy'}, {'cui': 'C0040461', 'cui_str': 'Brushing of teeth'}, {'cui': 'C0183975', 'cui_str': 'Toothbrush'}, {'cui': 'C0543467', 'cui_str': 'Surgery'}, {'cui': 'C2960678', 'cui_str': 'Periodontal route'}, {'cui': 'C0039798', 'cui_str': 'therapy'}, {'cui': 'C2363849', 'cui_str': 'Non-surgical treatment'}]","[{'cui': 'C0392747', 'cui_str': 'Changing'}, {'cui': 'C0019018', 'cui_str': 'Hemoglobin A, Glycosylated'}, {'cui': 'C0019046', 'cui_str': 'Hemoglobin'}, {'cui': 'C0441889', 'cui_str': 'Levels'}, {'cui': 'C0229671', 'cui_str': 'Serum'}, {'cui': 'C0014264', 'cui_str': 'Bacterial endotoxin'}, {'cui': 'C0021753', 'cui_str': 'interleukin-1, beta'}, {'cui': 'C0031094', 'cui_str': 'Periodontal pocket'}, {'cui': 'C0205125', 'cui_str': 'Deep'}, {'cui': 'C0006736', 'cui_str': 'Calculus'}, {'cui': 'C0600653', 'cui_str': 'Indexes'}, {'cui': 'C0019080', 'cui_str': 'Hemorrhage'}, {'cui': 'C0182400', 'cui_str': 'Probe'}, {'cui': 'C2960678', 'cui_str': 'Periodontal route'}, {'cui': 'C0018759', 'cui_str': 'Health status'}, {'cui': 'C0018684', 'cui_str': 'Health'}, {'cui': 'C0266929', 'cui_str': 'Chronic periodontitis'}, {'cui': 'C0017562', 'cui_str': 'Gingival structure'}, {'cui': 'C0001554', 'cui_str': 'Administration'}]",60.0,0.0362263,"Both the SRP and SRPAT groups showed improvements in periodontal health and HbA1c, but the SRPAT group showed significantly less BOP than the SRP group.","[{'ForeName': 'Jae Young', 'Initials': 'JY', 'LastName': 'Lee', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Preventive and Public Health Dentistry, Seoul National University School of Dentistry, Seoul, Korea.'}, {'ForeName': 'Yoon Young', 'Initials': 'YY', 'LastName': 'Choi', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Preventive and Public Health Dentistry, Seoul National University School of Dentistry, Seoul, Korea.'}, {'ForeName': 'Youngnim', 'Initials': 'Y', 'LastName': 'Choi', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Immunology and Molecular Microbiology, Seoul National University School of Dentistry, Seoul, Korea.'}, {'ForeName': 'Bo Hyoung', 'Initials': 'BH', 'LastName': 'Jin', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Preventive and Public Health Dentistry, Seoul National University School of Dentistry, Seoul, Korea.'}]",Journal of periodontal & implant science,['10.5051/jpis.2020.50.2.83']
210,32395434,"Comparison of patient-reported outcomes of treatment with low- and intermediate molecular weight hyaluronic acid in Japanese patients with symptomatic knee osteoarthritis: A prospective, randomized, single-blind trial.","Objectives
The objective of this study was to compare the clinical outcomes of treatment with low- or intermediate-molecular-weight hyaluronic acid (HA) in patients with knee osteoarthritis (OA).
Methods
In total, 59 patients with OA who fulfilled the criteria of the American College of Rheumatology for OA were enrolled. Patients were randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to the low- or intermediate-molecular-weight HA group. An intraarticular injection of HA into the knee joint was performed five times per week. The visual analog scale for pain (pain VAS) and Japanese Knee Osteoarthritis Measure (JKOM) score were analyzed at baseline and week 6 to assess the outcomes.
Results
Pain VAS and JKOM score were significantly improved in both groups. At follow-up, there were no significant between-group differences in pain VAS or total JKOM score. Moreover, reduction in pain VAS and JKOM score was not significantly different between the two groups.
Conclusions
Both low- and intermediate-molecular-weight HA have significant efficacy in the first-line treatment of patients with knee OA as indicated by patient-reported outcomes. However, there does not appear to be any difference between the efficacy of low- and intermediate-molecular-weight HA as indicated by the JKOM score.

211,32395439,Short Term Intake of Undaria pinnatifida Does Not Affect Bone Biomarkers in Young Korean Women with Low Calcium Intake.,"Calcium intake is essential for bone health, but young Korean women have low calcium intakes. Seaweeds have high calcium content, which may affect calcium metabolism. Twenty nine females aged 18-39 years with low calcium intake (< 400 mg/day) participated in a 19-day open-label randomized controlled trial. During the first five days, participants adhered to a controlled-feeding protocol followed by a two-week supplementation period in free-living conditions. The treatment group (n = 14) received an additional 200 mg Ca/day through Undaria pinnatifida and Porphyra in meals during the controlled-feeding period, and as U. pinnatifida noodles during days 6-19. Mineral intake (Ca, P, Mg, Na, and K) was assessed from diet composites and three 24-hour recalls during the controlled-feeding and free-living periods, respectively. Fasting serum levels of calcium, 25-hydroxyvitamin D, 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D (1,25[OH]D), phosphorus, parathyroid hormone (PTH), and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) were assessed at baseline, day 6, and day 19. Statistical analyses were performed by Student's t -test and mixed ANOVA. Mean intakes of all minerals during days 1-5 and mean Ca and Mg intakes during days 6-19 were greater in the treatment group compared to the control group. No group effect or group and time interaction was observed in serum biomarkers. Serum 1,25(OH)D increased while PTH and ALP tended to decrease on day 6 but returned to baseline values on day 20. Short-term intake of U. pinnatifida and Porphyra does not affect calcium metabolism in young Korean women with low calcium intakes.

212,32392574,Autosomal-dominant polycystic kidney disease: tolvaptan use in adolescents and young adults with rapid progression.,"BACKGROUND
The phase 3 Tolvaptan Efficacy and Safety in Management of Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease and Its Outcomes (TEMPO 3:4) clinical trial demonstrated the beneficial effect of tolvaptan on kidney growth and function in subjects aged 18-50 years over a 3-year period. However, it did not specifically assess the use of tolvaptan in adolescents and young adults (AYAs) with ADPKD.
METHODS
A post hoc analysis of the TEMPO 3:4 trials was performed for patients aged 18-24 years. The primary outcome was the annual rate of change in total kidney volume (TKV). The secondary outcome was to evaluate long-term safety of tolvaptan using Hy's law of hepatotoxicity.
RESULTS
A total of 51 patients in the 18-24 age group were analyzed (tolvaptan: 29, placebo: 22). The tolvaptan group had a lower mean percentage of TKV growth per year compared to the placebo group (3.9% vs. 6.5%, P = 0.0491). For secondary outcomes, 63 patients in the AYA subgroup were evaluated. In both the AYA and adult groups, none of the patients met the criteria for Hy's law of hepatotoxicity.
CONCLUSIONS
This post hoc analysis suggests that tolvaptan, with appropriate patient selection and management, can provide effective and acceptably safe treatment in AYAs with ADPKD.

213,32398341,Bacteremia Antibiotic Length Actually Needed for Clinical Effectiveness (BALANCE) randomised clinical trial: study protocol.,"INTRODUCTION
Bloodstream infections are a leading cause of mortality and morbidity; the duration of treatment for these infections is understudied.
METHODS AND ANALYSIS
We will conduct an international, multicentre randomised clinical trial of shorter (7 days) versus longer (14 days) antibiotic treatment among hospitalised patients with bloodstream infections. The trial will include 3626 patients across 60 hospitals and 6 countries. We will include patients with blood cultures confirming a pathogenic bacterium after hospital admission. Exclusion criteria will include patient factors (severe immunosuppression), infection site factors (endocarditis, osteomyelitis, undrained abscesses, infected prosthetic material) and pathogen factors ( Staphylococcus aureus , Staphylococcus lugdunensis , Candida and contaminant organisms). We will leave the selection of specific antibiotics, doses and route of delivery to the discretion of treating physicians; no placebo control will be used given the diversity of pathogens and sources of bacteraemia. The intervention will be assignment of treatment duration to be 7 versus 14 days. We will minimise selection bias via central randomisation with variable block sizes, with concealed allocation until day 7 of adequate antibiotic treatment. The primary outcome is 90-day survival; we will test whether 7 days is non-inferior to 14 days of treatment, with a non-inferiority margin of 4% absolute mortality. Secondary outcomes include hospital and intensive care unit (ICU) mortality, relapse rates of bacteraemia, hospital and ICU length of stay, mechanical ventilation and vasopressor duration, antibiotic-free days, C lostridium difficile infection, antibiotic allergy and adverse events and colonisation/infection with antibiotic-resistant organisms.
ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION
The study has been approved by the ethics review board at each participating site. Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre is the central ethics committee. We will disseminate study results via the Canadian Critical Care Trials Group and other collaborating networks to set the global paradigm for antibiotic treatment duration for non-staphylococcal Gram-positive, Gram-negative and anaerobic bacteraemia, among patients admitted to hospital.

216,32398909,Efficacy of Seetarama Vati (A Sri Lankan traditional drug) and Vatari Guggulu in the management of Amavata (rheumatoid arthritis)-an open labeled randomized comparative clinical trial.,"Introduction
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic inflammatory autoimmune disease caused by type III hypersensitivity reaction due to antigen antibody complexes which deposit at the joints resulting in arthritis. As per the concept of Ayurveda, it can be co-related with Amavata , the disease arising from deranged metabolism and Vata vitiation. Despite of advancement in diagnostic approach of RA, management of it remains challenge. Vatari Guggulu and Seetarama Vati are the formulations having analgesics properties due to their Ushna (metabolism enhancing) and Tikshna Guna (micro channel cleaning) and simultaneously possess anti-inflammatory properties.
Aims and Objectives
To evaluate and compare the efficacy of Vatari Guggulu and Seetarama Vati in the management of Amavata w.s.r. to rheumatoid arthritis.
Material and Methods
For the present study, 58 patients were selected and divided into two groups. Patients of group A and group B were given Vatari Guggulu and Seetarama Vati respectively with warm water after meal for one month. Before administration of trial drugs in both of groups' patients were given 4-6 grams of Triphala powder depending upon the Koshtha of the patient, on empty stomach early morning for the purpose of Koshtha Shuddhi (purgation) for 3 days. In addition to assess effect on signs and symptoms of Amavata , haematological investigation, biochemical investigation including quantitative C-reactive protein (CRP) and rheumatoid factor (RA factor) and routine urinary examination were carried out before and after treatment in all the registered patients. The effect of therapy was assessed on the basis of changes in score in comparison to end point score.
Discussion
All the cardinal and associate complaints were statistically significant improved after the course of the trial drug. Most of the functional parameters had statistically significant improvement after treatment except left side foot pressure and DAS 28 scale in B group. Biochemical and hematological parameters were within normal limit before and after treatment. The difference of effect of trial drug on chief complaints was statistically insignificant. The difference of effect of trial drug on associate complaints was statistically insignificant. Difference of effect of trial drugs on ESR of both the groups was statistically insignificant. The difference of effect of trial drug on RA factor and CRP between groups was statistically significant. The difference of effect of trial drug on functional parameters between groups were statistically significant.
Conclusion

218,32398911,Comparison of antiplaque effectiveness of herbal toothpaste: A randomized triple-blinded cross-over clinical trial.,"Background
Cleansing the teeth with a toothbrush and paste is an indubitable mechanical plaque control method practiced by almost everyone. Eliminating dental plaque is an essential, fundamental and mandatory step to prevent the occurrence of periodontal diseases that are rife globally. The aim of the present study is to compare the antiplaque effectiveness of a prepared herbal and commercially available dentifrice.
Materials and Methods
Thirty healthy individuals within the age group of 18-25 years were recruited to participate in the study. After achieving induced gingivitis and measuring plaque levels using Turesky modification of the Quigley Hein Plaque index in all the subjects, they were randomly divided into test arms A and B. Commercial dentifrice was distributed to one group, whereas the other group received prepared herbal dentifrice. Supervised brushing was carried out for 5 min, and plaque amounts after brushing were noted. After a washout period of 1 week, the same steps were repeated as per the cross-over study protocol. Unpaired t -test and paired t -tests were employed with P < 0.05.
Results
Both the toothpastes show the difference in plaque scores immediately after brushing when compared to baseline and was statistically significant ( P = 0.001). The mean plaque scores of commercial dentifrice (1.93 ± 1.52) were less than that of the prepared herbal dentifrice (2.35 ± 1.39) after brushing.
Conclusion
The prepared herbal dentifrice had good antiplaque action. However, the plaque inhibitory action of self-prepared herbal toothpaste was marginally less when compared to commercial dentifrice.",2019,Both the toothpastes show the difference in plaque scores immediately after brushing when compared to baseline and was statistically significant ( P = 0.001).,['Thirty healthy individuals within the age group of 18-25 years were recruited to participate in the study'],"['herbal toothpaste', 'herbal dentifrice', 'prepared herbal and commercially available dentifrice']","['mean plaque scores', 'plaque scores']","[{'cui': 'C3816446', 'cui_str': '30'}, {'cui': 'C0027361', 'cui_str': 'Person'}, {'cui': 'C0027362', 'cui_str': 'Age Groups'}, {'cui': 'C0450335', 'cui_str': '18/25'}, {'cui': 'C0439234', 'cui_str': 'year'}, {'cui': 'C0008972', 'cui_str': 'Clinical Study'}]","[{'cui': 'C0376667', 'cui_str': 'Herbals'}, {'cui': 'C0040462', 'cui_str': 'Toothpaste'}, {'cui': 'C0011427', 'cui_str': 'Dentifrice'}, {'cui': 'C0470187', 'cui_str': 'Availability of'}]","[{'cui': 'C0444504', 'cui_str': 'Mean'}, {'cui': 'C0011389', 'cui_str': 'Dental plaque'}, {'cui': 'C0449820', 'cui_str': 'Score'}]",30.0,0.0184761,Both the toothpastes show the difference in plaque scores immediately after brushing when compared to baseline and was statistically significant ( P = 0.001).,"[{'ForeName': 'Ramamurthy', 'Initials': 'R', 'LastName': 'Shanmugapriya', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Periodontics, Sri Venkateswara Dental College and Hospital, Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India.'}, {'ForeName': 'Ulaganathan', 'Initials': 'U', 'LastName': 'Arunmozhi', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Periodontics, Sri Venkateswara Dental College and Hospital, Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India.'}, {'ForeName': 'Rathinasamy', 'Initials': 'R', 'LastName': 'Kadhiresan', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Periodontics, Sri Venkateswara Dental College and Hospital, Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India.'}, {'ForeName': 'Sudarsan', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Sabitha', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Periodontics, Sri Venkateswara Dental College and Hospital, Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India.'}, {'ForeName': 'Ravikumar', 'Initials': 'R', 'LastName': 'Anirudhya', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Periodontics, Sri Venkateswara Dental College and Hospital, Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India.'}, {'ForeName': 'Govindarajan', 'Initials': 'G', 'LastName': 'Sujatha', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Oral Pathology, Sri Venkateswara Dental College and Hospital, Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India.'}]",Ayu,['10.4103/ayu.AYU_185_19']

220,32399254,A controlled pilot trial of a nurse-led intervention (Mini-AFTERc) to manage fear of cancer recurrence in patients affected by breast cancer.,"Background
Fear of cancer recurrence (FCR) is common in people affected by breast cancer. FCR is associated with increased health service and medication use, anxiety, depression and reduced quality of life. Existing interventions for FCR are time and resource intensive, making implementation in a National Health Service (NHS) setting challenging. To effectively manage FCR in current clinical practice, less intensive FCR interventions are required. Mini-AFTERc is a structured 30-min counselling intervention delivered over the telephone and is designed to normalise moderate FCR levels by targeting unhelpful behaviours and misconceptions about cancer recurrence.This multi-centre non-randomised controlled pilot trial will investigate the feasibility of delivering the Mini-AFTERc intervention, its acceptability and usefulness, in relation to specialist breast cancer nurses (SBCNs) and patients. This protocol describes the rationale, methods and analysis plan for this pilot trial of the Mini-AFTERc intervention in everyday practice.
Methods
This study will run in four breast cancer centres in NHS Scotland, two intervention and two control centres. SBCNs at intervention centres will be trained to deliver the Mini-AFTERc intervention. Female patients who have completed primary breast cancer treatment in the previous 6 months will be screened for moderate FCR (FCR4 score: 10‑14). Participants at intervention centres will receive the Mini-AFTERc intervention within 2 weeks of recruitment. SBCNs will audio record the intervention telephone discussions with participants. Fidelity of intervention implementation will be assessed from audio recordings. All participants will complete three separate follow-up questionnaires assessing changes in FCR, anxiety, depression and quality of life over 3 months. Normalisation process theory (NPT) will form the framework for semi-structured interviews with 20% of patients and all SBCNs. Interviews will explore participants' experience of the study, acceptability and usefulness of the intervention and factors influencing implementation within clinical practice. The ADePT process will be adopted to systematically problem solve and refine the trial design.
Discussion
Findings will provide evidence for the potential effectiveness, fidelity, acceptability and practicality of the Mini-AFTERc intervention, and will inform the design and development of a large randomised controlled trial (RCT).

221,32399267,Clinical efficacy and quality of life after transrectal natural orifice specimen extraction for the treatment of middle and upper rectal cancer.,"Background
Laparoscopic anterior resection with natural orifice specimen extraction (NOSE) avoids extra abdominal extraction incision during colorectal surgery. Some surgeons realized the benefits of NOSE on clinical efficacy. We compared the clinical efficacy of laparoscopic NOSE, laparoscopic non-NOSE and open surgery (OS) for short-term recovery and quality of life (QoL).
Methods
A single randomized controlled trial of NOSE for middle and upper rectal cancer between April 2014 and February 2018. Preoperative and postoperative clinical variables were analyzed and compared between the groups. Preoperative and 6 months postoperative QoL was assessed with the SF-36 QoL questionnaire.
Results
A total of 378 patients were enrolled, 334 patients randomly divided into NOSE group (n=104), non-NOSE group (n=119), OS group (n=111). The NOSE group was superior to the other two groups on the QoL after surgery. The NOSE group had the lowest postoperative VAS score between three groups. The postoperative time for bowel function recovery and the length of hospital stay was statistically significantly different among the three groups, with the NOSE group having the shortest time. The incidence of postoperative complications was lower in the NOSE group (12/104, 11.5%) than in the non-NOSE group (20/119, 16.8%), the difference was statistically significant. The Kaplan-Meier (K-M) survival curve showed no statistically significant difference in the disease-free survival (DFS) rate between the three groups.
Conclusions
Comparing NOSE to non-NOSE and OS, the NOSE had significantly better functional recovery and better QoL.

222,32399286,Weight Change and Its Association with Cardiometabolic Risk Markers in Overweight and Obese Women.,"Objectives
To examine the association of weight loss magnitude with changes in cardiometabolic risk markers in overweight and obese women from low socioeconomic areas engaged in a lifestyle intervention.
Methods
Analyses were performed on 243 women (mean body mass index 31.27 ± 4.14 kg/m 2 ) who completed a 12-month lifestyle intervention in low socioeconomic communities in Klang Valley, Malaysia. Analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) was used to compare changes of cardiometabolic risk factors across weight change categories (2% gain, ±2% maintain, >2 to <5% loss, and 5 to 20% loss) within intervention and control group.
Results
A graded association for changes in waist circumference, fasting insulin, and total cholesterol ( p =0.002, for all variables) across the weight change categories were observed within the intervention group at six months postintervention. Participants who lost 5 to 20% of weight had the greatest improvements in those risk markers (-5.67 cm CI: -7.98 to -3.36, -4.27 μ U/mL CI: -7.35, -1.19, and -0.59 mmol/L CI: -.99, -0.19, respectively) compared to those who did not. Those who lost >2% to <5% weight reduced more waist circumference (-4.24 cm CI: -5.44 to -3.04) and fasting insulin (-0.36 μ U/mL CI: -1.95 to 1.24) than those who maintained or gained weight. No significant association was detected in changes of risk markers across the weight change categories within the control group except for waist circumference and adiponectin.
Conclusion
Weight loss of >2 to <5% obtained through lifestyle intervention may represent a reasonable initial weight loss target for women in the low socioeconomic community as it led to improvements in selected risk markers, particularly of diabetes risk.",2020,"No significant association was detected in changes of risk markers across the weight change categories within the control group except for waist circumference and adiponectin.

223,32399295,Influence of 8-Week Aerobic Training on the Skin Microcirculation in Patients with Ischaemic Heart Disease.,"Materials and Methods
In the study, 48 men took part with a stabilized and pharmacologically controlled ischaemic disease. The participants were randomly divided into two groups with 24 people in each of them. The research group participated in an aerobic march training. The march was taking place 3 times a week for 30-40 minutes over a period of 8 weeks. In the time of training, the subjects did not practise any other physical activity for 8 weeks. The measurement of skin microcirculation was done by using the laser Doppler flowmeter estimating the values of regular flow and the reactions provoked in response to occlusion and temperature. Signal frequency was also analysed which was received by means of laser Doppler flowmetry in the range from 0.01 to 2 Hz during the regular flow.
Results
During the first measurement in relation to the initial values, a decrease in body mass was noted by 2.21 kg on average as well as reduction of systolic and diastolic pressure by 10.4 mmHg and 3.68 mmHg, respectively. The regular flow (RF) increased after the training by 2.21%. The provoked reactions were as follows: hyperemic (PRHmax): an increase occurred by 8.76% and hyperthermic (THmax): an increase occurred by 5.38%. The time needed to achieve PRHmax was reduced by 42% and to achieve THmax, by 22%. The heart rhythm and the signal strength of neurogenic rhythm decreased by approximately 8% and 24%, respectively. The signal strength of endothelial rhythm increased by 19%. In the second measurement, a recourse was noted in the values of indicators under investigation, which were assuming values close to the initial ones. In the control group, the measurement values did not change significantly.
Conclusions
8 weeks of systematic aerobic training provides a significant improvement of endothelium functioning, expressed by reactivity improvement in skin microcirculation in patients suffering from ischaemic heart disease. It points to aerobic training as a nonpharmacological effective cardioprotective factor. The improvement effects of skin vascular bed functioning in the group of patients with IHD are impermanent, and they disappear after the period in which patients did not exercise physical activity.",2020,"In the control group, the measurement values did not change significantly.

224,32325038,"Safety and immunogenicity of a candidate Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus viral-vectored vaccine: a dose-escalation, open-label, non-randomised, uncontrolled, phase 1 trial.","BACKGROUND
Cases of Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV) infection continue to rise in the Arabian Peninsula 7 years after it was first described in Saudi Arabia. MERS-CoV poses a significant risk to public health security because of an absence of currently available effective countermeasures. We aimed to assess the safety and immunogenicity of the candidate simian adenovirus-vectored vaccine expressing the full-length spike surface glycoprotein, ChAdOx1 MERS, in humans.
METHODS
This dose-escalation, open-label, non-randomised, uncontrolled, phase 1 trial was done at the Centre for Clinical Vaccinology and Tropical Medicine (Oxford, UK) and included healthy people aged 18-50 years with negative pre-vaccination tests for HIV antibodies, hepatitis B surface antigen, and hepatitis C antibodies (and a negative urinary pregnancy test for women). Participants received a single intramuscular injection of ChAdOx1 MERS at three different doses: the low-dose group received 5 × 10 9 viral particles, the intermediate-dose group received 2·5 × 10 10 viral particles, and the high-dose group received 5 × 10 10 viral particles. The primary objective was to assess safety and tolerability of ChAdOx1 MERS, measured by the occurrence of solicited, unsolicited, and serious adverse events after vaccination. The secondary objective was to assess the cellular and humoral immunogenicity of ChAdOx1 MERS, measured by interferon-γ-linked enzyme-linked immunospot, ELISA, and virus neutralising assays after vaccination. Participants were followed up for up to 12 months. This study is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT03399578.
FINDINGS
Between March 14 and Aug 15, 2018, 24 participants were enrolled: six were assigned to the low-dose group, nine to the intermediate-dose group, and nine to the high-dose group. All participants were available for follow-up at 6 months, but five (one in the low-dose group, one in the intermediate-dose group, and three in the high-dose group) were lost to follow-up at 12 months. A single dose of ChAdOx1 MERS was safe at doses up to 5 × 10 10 viral particles with no vaccine-related serious adverse events reported by 12 months. One serious adverse event reported was deemed to be not related to ChAdOx1 MERS. 92 (74% [95% CI 66-81]) of 124 solicited adverse events were mild, 31 (25% [18-33]) were moderate, and all were self-limiting. Unsolicited adverse events in the 28 days following vaccination considered to be possibly, probably, or definitely related to ChAdOx1 MERS were predominantly mild in nature and resolved within the follow-up period of 12 months. The proportion of moderate and severe adverse events was significantly higher in the high-dose group than in the intermediate-dose group (relative risk 5·83 [95% CI 2·11-17·42], p<0·0001) Laboratory adverse events considered to be at least possibly related to the study intervention were self-limiting and predominantly mild in severity. A significant increase from baseline in T-cell (p<0·003) and IgG (p<0·0001) responses to the MERS-CoV spike antigen was observed at all doses. Neutralising antibodies against live MERS-CoV were observed in four (44% [95% CI 19-73]) of nine participants in the high-dose group 28 days after vaccination, and 19 (79% [58-93]) of 24 participants had antibodies capable of neutralisation in a pseudotyped virus neutralisation assay.
INTERPRETATION
ChAdOx1 MERS was safe and well tolerated at all tested doses. A single dose was able to elicit both humoral and cellular responses against MERS-CoV. The results of this first-in-human clinical trial support clinical development progression into field phase 1b and 2 trials.

225,32396700,Integrating oral PrEP delivery among African women in a large HIV endpoint-driven clinical trial.,"INTRODUCTION
Global guidelines emphasize the ethical obligation of investigators to help participants in HIV-endpoint trials reduce HIV risk by offering an optimal HIV prevention package. Oral pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) has increasingly become part of state-of-the-art HIV prevention. Here we describe the process of integrating oral PrEP delivery into the HIV prevention package of the Evidence for Contraceptive Options and HIV Outcomes (ECHO) Trial.
METHODS
ECHO was an open-label randomized clinical trial that compared HIV incidence among women randomized to one of three effective contraceptives. In total, 7830 women aged 16 to 35 years from 12 sites in four African countries (Eswatini, Kenya, South Africa and Zambia) were enrolled and followed for 12 to 18 months, from 2015 to 2018. Part-way through the course of the trial, oral PrEP was provided to study participants either off-site via referral or on site via trained trial staff. PrEP uptake was compared between different contraceptive users using Chi-squared tests or t-tests. HIV seroincidence rates were compared between participants who never versus ever initiated PrEP using exact Poisson regression.
RESULTS
PrEP access in ECHO began through public availability in Kenya in May 2017 and was available at all sites by June 2018. When PrEP became available, 3626 (46.3%) eligible women were still in follow-up in the study, and of these, 622 (17.2%) initiated PrEP. Women initiating PrEP were slightly older; more likely to be unmarried, not living with their partner, having multiple partners; and less likely to be earning their own income and receiving financial support from partners (all p < 0.05). PrEP initiation did not differ across study randomized groups (p = 0.7). Two-thirds of PrEP users were continuing PrEP at study exit.
CONCLUSIONS

226,32334632,"The Balanced Opioid Initiative: protocol for a clustered, sequential, multiple-assignment randomized trial to construct an adaptive implementation strategy to improve guideline-concordant opioid prescribing in primary care.","BACKGROUND
Rates of opioid prescribing tripled in the USA between 1999 and 2015 and were associated with significant increases in opioid misuse and overdose death. Roughly half of all opioids are prescribed in primary care. Although clinical guidelines describe recommended opioid prescribing practices, implementing these guidelines in a way that balances safety and effectiveness vs. risk remains a challenge. The literature offers little help about which implementation strategies work best in different clinical settings or how strategies could be tailored to optimize their effectiveness in different contexts. Systems consultation consists of (1) educational/engagement meetings with audit and feedback reports, (2) practice facilitation, and (3) prescriber peer consulting. The study is designed to discover the most cost-effective sequence and combination of strategies for improving opioid prescribing practices in diverse primary care clinics.
METHODS/DESIGN
The study is a hybrid type 3 clustered, sequential, multiple-assignment randomized trial (SMART) that randomizes clinics from two health systems at two points, months 3 and 9, of a 21-month intervention. Clinics are provided one of four sequences of implementation strategies: a condition consisting of educational/engagement meetings and audit and feedback alone (EM/AF), EM/AF plus practice facilitation (PF), EM/AF + prescriber peer consulting (PPC), and EM/AF + PF + PPC. The study's primary outcome is morphine-milligram equivalent (MME) dose by prescribing clinicians within clinics. The study's primary aim is the comparison of EM/AF + PF + PPC versus EM/AF alone on change in MME from month 3 to month 21. The secondary aim is to derive cost estimates for each of the four sequences and compare them. The exploratory aim is to examine four tailoring variables that can be used to construct an adaptive implementation strategy to meet the needs of different primary care clinics.
DISCUSSION
Systems consultation is a practical blend of implementation strategies used in this case to improve opioid prescribing practices in primary care. The blend offers a range of strategies in sequences from minimally to substantially intensive. The results of this study promise to help us understand how to cost effectively improve the implementation of evidence-based practices.

227,32335159,Supplementation with a putative calorie restriction mimetic micronutrient blend increases glutathione concentrations and improves neuroenergetics in brain of healthy middle-aged men and women.,"BACKGROUND
Caloric restriction (CR) without micronutrient deficiency has been shown to increase both lifespan and healthspan. In animals, CR has been demonstrated to increase glutathione (GSH), a neuroprotective antioxidant, in the brain and preserve brain mitochondrial function by altering neuroenergetics. In humans it has been associated with improvements in mood states and cognitive function. However, most CR studies have employed a 30-60% reduction in calories which is likely too stringent for most people to adhere to long-term. Thus, there is an unmet need for nutritional supplements which can mimic the biological effects of CR, without the need for calorie limitations.
AIM
The purpose of the present randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trial was to use Proton ( 1 H) Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopic (MRS) measurements to determine non-invasively whether a blend of micronutrients, a putative CR mimetic, positively modulates metabolites related to neuroprotection and neuroenergetics in the brain.
METHODS
Healthy middle-aged men and women (N = 63 [33 women]; age: 40-60 years) were randomized in a double-blind manner to 6 weeks supplementation with either the putative CR mimetic or placebo. At baseline and 6 weeks, subjects underwent MRS at 3 T to investigate changes in brain chemistry, including the neurometabolites: GSH, Glutamate (Glu), Glutamine (Gln) and N-Acetylaspartate (NAA).
RESULTS
GSH, a marker of antioxidant and cellular redox status, increased in the brain of participants in the supplement group. The supplement group also showed an increase in the Glu/Gln ratio, a marker of excitatory neurotransmission and bioenergetics. A trend for an increase in NAA/H 2 O, a marker of neuronal integrity, was observed in females in the supplement group.
CONCLUSIONS
The present study reveals that 6-weeks daily supplementation with a micronutrient blend elicits positive changes in brain neurochemistry. This is the first study to demonstrate that a putative CR mimetic increases brain GSH concentrations and improves neuroprotection and neuroenergetics in the brain of healthy humans.

228,32335288,The 'Take a Break' game: Randomized trial protocol for a technology-assisted brief abstinence experience designed to engage lower-motivated smokers.,"BACKGROUND
While smoking continues to be the most preventable cause of mortality in the United States, most current smokers remain not ready to quit at any given time. Engaging these 'motivation phase' smokers with brief experiences to build confidence and practice skills related to cessation could lead to sooner and more successful quit attempts. Increasingly available mobile technology and gamification can be used to provide smokers with accessible and engaging support.
METHODS
We describe our protocol for conducting a randomized controlled trial evaluating Take a Break, an mHealth-based smoking pre-cessation challenge designed for smokers not ready to quit. Participants in the intervention receive 1) Motivational Messages, 2) text message Challenge Quizzes, 3) Goal-setting with tobacco treatment specialist, 4) Coping Mini-Games apps, and 5) Recognition and Rewards for participation during a 3-week challenge. Access to coping mini-games and motivational messaging continues for 6-months. Both intervention and comparison group participants receive brief Nicotine Replacement Therapy (NRT) sampling and daily smoking assessment text messages for three weeks. Primary outcomes include number of days abstinent during the challenge, change in patient-reported self-efficacy after the challenge, time to first quit attempt following the challenge, and 7-day point prevalent smoking cessation at six months.

229,32289518,Effects of supervised high-intensity resistance and impact training or machine-based isometric training on regional bone geometry and strength in middle-aged and older men with low bone mass: The LIFTMOR-M semi-randomised controlled trial.,"INTRODUCTION
Few data exist on the effects of bone-targeted exercise on geometric and biomechanical indices of bone strength in men. The Lifting Intervention For Training Muscle and Osteoporosis Rehabilitation for Men (LIFTMOR-M) trial was designed to compare the efficacy and safety of two novel, supervised, twice-weekly, high-intensity exercise programs in middle-aged and older men with osteopenia and osteoporosis on musculoskeletal health and risk factors related to falls and fractures. The current report includes secondary outcomes of the LIFTMOR-M exercise intervention trial.
PURPOSE
Our goal was to determine the effects of two supervised, twice-weekly, high-intensity exercise programs on bone geometry and strength of the proximal femur, and distal and proximal sites of the tibia and radius in middle-aged and older men with osteopenia and osteoporosis.
METHODS
Generally-healthy men (≥45 years), with low lumbar spine (LS) and/or proximal femur areal bone mineral density (aBMD), were recruited from the community. Eligible participants were randomised to either eight months of twice-weekly supervised high-intensity progressive resistance and impact training (HiRIT) or supervised machine-based isometric axial compression (IAC) exercise training. Intervention group outcomes were compared at baseline and eight months with a matched but non-randomised control group (CON) who self-selected to usual activities. DXA scans (Medix DR, Medilink, France) of the skeletally non-dominant proximal femur were analysed using 3D hip software (DMS Group, France) to derive femoral neck (FN) and total hip (TH) bone mineral content (BMC), volume, and volumetric bone mineral density (vBMD) for total, trabecular and cortical bone compartments. Total FN cortical thickness was determined as well as anterior, posterior, lateral and medial subregions. pQCT scans (XCT-3000, Stratec, Germany) of the 4 and 38% sites of the tibia, and 4 and 66% sites of the radius were conducted to determine a range of geometric and bone structural strength indices. Intervention effects were examined using univariate ANCOVA of percent change, and repeated measures ANCOVA of raw baseline and follow-up data, controlling for initial values, using intention-to-treat and per-protocol approaches.
RESULTS
Ninety-three men (67.1 ± 7.5 yrs, 175.2 ± 6.7 cm, 82.1 ± 11.6 kg, 26.7 ± 3.5 kg/m 2 ) with lower than average aBMD (LS T-score -0.06 ± 1.04, FN T-score -1.58 ± 0.58, TH T-score -1.00 ± 0.58) were recruited, and designated CON (n = 26) or randomised to HiRIT (n = 34) or IAC (n = 33). Compliance to the supervised exercise programs did not differ (HiRIT 77.8 ± 16.6% versus IAC 78.5 ± 14.8%, p = 0.872). HiRIT improved medial FN cortical thickness compared with CON (5.6 ± 1.7% versus -0.1 ± 1.9%, p = 0.028) and IAC (5.6 ± 1.7% versus 0.7 ± 1.7%, p = 0.044). Distal tibia total BMC, vBMD, area and bone strength index, and trabecular BMC and bone strength index all declined for CON compared with maintenance for both HiRIT and IAC (all p < 0.05). HiRIT maintained distal tibia trabecular area compared with a loss in CON (0.2 ± 0.5% versus -1.6 ± 0.5%, p = 0.013). HiRIT and IAC maintained distal radius total BMC compared with loss in CON (-0.1 ± 0.7% versus -3.7 ± 0.8%, p = 0.001; 1.3 ± 0.7% versus -3.7 ± 0.8%, p < 0.001, respectively). HiRIT and IAC maintained distal radius total bone strength index compared with loss in CON (1.4 ± 1.4% versus -6.0 ± 1.6%, p = 0.001; 0.2 ± 1.3% versus -6.0 ± 1.6%, p = 0.004, respectively). HiRIT reduced proximal radius cortical area compared with CON (-3.1 ± 1.0% versus 1.1 ± 1.2%, p = 0.011) and IAC (-3.1 ± 1.0% versus -0.2 ± 1.0%, p = 0.042). No between-group differences were detected in any pQCT-derived bone outcome at the diaphyseal tibia 38% site.
CONCLUSION
Findings indicate that supervised HiRIT provides a positive stimulus to cortical bone at the medial FN compared with supervised IAC exercise, and both HiRIT and IAC preserve bone strength at the distal tibia and distal radius. These effects may translate into a reduced risk of lower and upper extremity fracture in middle-aged and older men with low bone mass.",2020,"No between-group differences were detected in any pQCT-derived bone outcome at the diaphyseal tibia 38% site.

It is disappointing, but not surprising that many of studies, without control arms, could not provide a clear answer as to whether screening is effective in reducing mortality or combating rising incidence trends. Only one Indian study that reported a randomized controlled trial (RCT) elucidated that mass screening for high risk groups could significantly reduce the cancer mortality or down-stage cancers detected by screening. Several professional organizations that considered any potential benefits of oral cancer screening remain unconvinced that the current knowledge on its natural history, available tests and interventions to treat potentially malignant disorders satisfy the desirable criteria to recommend organized screening for oral cancer. In this review we discuss advantages and disadvantages for oral cancer screening particularly with reference to high incidence countries in Asia. If screening is undertaken, we propose that it is targeted to high risk groups and to combine screening with education on risky life-styles so that overall incidence can be reduced in the future. Further research on increasing public awarenes and impact of professional education such as e-learning to reduce diagnostic delays, studies on the natural history of oral potentially malignant disorders and cancer, comprehensive tobacco and areca nut cessation programs, developing tools to identify high-risk individuals and high-risk lesions are proposed.",2020,"Several professional organizations that considered any potential benefits of oral cancer screening remain unconvinced that the current knowledge on its natural history, available tests and interventions to treat potentially malignant disorders satisfy the desirable criteria to recommend organized screening for oral cancer.",['oral cancer'],[],['cancer mortality'],"[{'cui': 'C0153381', 'cui_str': 'Malignant tumor of oral cavity'}]",[],"[{'cui': 'C0006826', 'cui_str': 'Malignant neoplastic disease'}, {'cui': 'C0026565', 'cui_str': 'Mortality rate'}]",,0.0484795,"Several professional organizations that considered any potential benefits of oral cancer screening remain unconvinced that the current knowledge on its natural history, available tests and interventions to treat potentially malignant disorders satisfy the desirable criteria to recommend organized screening for oral cancer.","[{'ForeName': 'Toru', 'Initials': 'T', 'LastName': 'Nagao', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Maxillofacial Surgery School of Dentistry, Aichi Gakuin University, Nagoya, Japan.

233,32325373,"Safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of macimorelin in healthy adults: Results of a single-dose, randomized controlled study.","OBJECTIVE
Macimorelin is an orally active ghrelin receptor agonist indicated for the diagnosis of adult growth hormone (GH) deficiency in the United States. This phase 1 study evaluated the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of single ascending doses of macimorelin (including a supratherapeutic dose to be used in a thorough QT trial) in healthy adults.
DESIGN
Participants were randomized to receive macimorelin 0.5, 1.0, or 2.0 mg/kg or placebo in 1 of 3 sequential ascending-dose cohorts. Blood samples for pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic assays were collected pre-dose and at specified time points over a 24-h period. Pharmacokinetic parameters assessed included area under the concentration-time curve (AUC), maximum concentration (C max ) of macimorelin in plasma, time to C max (t max ), and terminal elimination half-life (t 1/2 ). Pharmacodynamic assessments evaluated levels of GH, adrenocorticotropic hormone, thyroid-stimulating hormone, cortisol, and prolactin. Safety was assessed based on treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs), vital signs, 12‑lead electrocardiograms, and laboratory parameters.
RESULTS
A total of 28 healthy adults were enrolled and completed the study. Macimorelin AUC and C max showed less than dose-proportional increases following administration of 0.5 and 1.0 mg/kg. Mean t 1/2 was 3.51 h for macimorelin 0.5 and 1.0 mg/kg and 8.29 h for macimorelin 2.0 mg/kg; median t max occurred at 0.5 to 0.75 h. GH levels increased after dosing, with a t max of 0.75 h to 1.0 h. Mean GH C max was similar with the macimorelin 0.5- and 1.0-mg/kg doses (31.9 and 37.8 ng/mL, respectively) and was ~50% lower with macimorelin 2.0 mg/kg (18.4 ng/mL). Transient increases were observed in adrenocorticotropic hormone, cortisol, and prolactin, which were not dose related. A total of 19 TEAEs were reported in 35.7% (10/28) of participants; all TEAEs were mild or moderate and resolved. A total of 12 drug-related TEAEs were reported in 8 participants. Headache was the most common drug-related TEAE. All doses of macimorelin prolonged mean QTcF by 10 to 11 ms. There were no clinically meaningful changes in vital signs or laboratory parameters.
CONCLUSIONS
Single-dose administration of macimorelin 0.5 to 2.0 mg/kg was well tolerated. Macimorelin exposure was less than dose-proportional over the dose range studied. Administration of macimorelin stimulated GH production, with the greatest increases observed in the macimorelin 0.5- and 1.0-mg/kg groups.",2020,"Safety was assessed based on treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs), vital signs, 12‑lead electrocardiograms, and laboratory parameters.

234,32194222,Improvement of NRF2 gene expression and antioxidant status in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus after supplementation with omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids: A double-blind randomised placebo-controlled clinical trial.,"BACKGROUND
Nrf2 is a transcription factor that induces the expression of several proteins with antioxidant properties such as sestrin2 (Sesn2) and is therefore considered as the major regulator of anti-oxidative defence system.
OBJECTIVES
The aim of this research was to study the effect of supplementation with n-3 PUFAs on the antioxidant status and the gene expression of Nrf2 and Sestrin2 (Sesn2) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).
PARTICIPANTS
Sixty patients with T2DM were enrolled in a placebo-controlled, double-blind, randomised clinical trial.
INTERVENTION AND DESIGN
The participants were randomly allocated to two intervention groups receiving either n-3 PUFAs (2,700 mg/day) (n = 30) or placebo soft gels containing 900 mg of edible paraffin (n = 30). The main outcome measures were the expression of Sesn2 and Nrf2 genes which were assessed in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) after RNA extraction and cDNA synthesis by real-time PCR. Total antioxidant status in plasma samples was also measured based on the ferric reducing ability of plasma.
RESULTS
NRF2 gene expression was significantly increased in n-3 PUFA-supplemented subjects, compared with the placebo group. Plasma total antioxidant status was also significantly augmented in n-3 PUFA-supplemented subjects. SESN2 gene expression was not significantly affected by n-3 PUFA supplementation although a slight up-regulation was observed.
CONCLUSION
Supplementation with n-3 PUFAs enhanced NRF2 gene expression and improved overall antioxidant capacity and thus might be considered beneficial in the amelioration of oxidative stress and prevention of T2DM complications.

The objective of the present study was to examine the effects of OEA supplementation along with weight loss intervention on the expression of PPAR-α, uncoupling proteins 1and 2 (UCP1 and UCP2) genes in the peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs), metabolic parameters, and anthropometric indices among obese patients with NAFLD. In this triple-blind placebo-controlled randomized clinical trial, 76 obese patients newly diagnosed with NAFLD were randomly allocated into either OEA or placebo group along with calorie-restricted diets for 12 weeks. At pre-and post-intervention phase, mRNA expression levels of PPAR-α, UCP1, and UCP2 genes in the PBMCs, serum levels of metabolic parameters as well as diet and appetite sensations were assessed. There was a significant increase in the expression levels of PPAR-α, UCP1, and UCP2 genes in the PBMCs, compared to the placebo at the endpoint. A significant decrease in the anthropometric indices, energy and carbohydrate intakes, glycemic parameters, except for hemoglobin A1c concentration was also observed in the OEA group, compared to the placebo group. OEA treatment significantly resulted in decreased serum levels of triglyceride (TG), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), ALT/AST, increased serum levels of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), and improved appetite sensations. Importantly, a significant improvement in TG, ALT, AST, ALT/AST, HDL-C levels as well as appetite sensations by OEA were under the influence of body mass index (BMI). Although liver steatosis severity was significantly reduced in both groups, the between-group differences did not reach statistical significance (P = 0.061).

236,32244028,Network topology and machine learning analyses reveal microstructural white matter changes underlying Chinese medicine Dengzhan Shengmai treatment on patients with vascular cognitive impairment.,"With the increasing incidence of cerebrovascular diseases and dementia, considerable efforts have been made to develop effective treatments on vascular cognitive impairment (VCI), among which accumulating practice-based evidence has shown great potential of the traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). Current randomized double-blind controlled trial has been designed to evaluate the 6-month treatment effects of Dengzhan Shengmai (DZSM) capsules, one TCM herbal preparations on VCI, and to explore the underlying neural mechanisms with graph theory-based analysis and machine learning method based on diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) data. A total of 82 VCI patients were recruited and randomly assigned to drug (45 with DZSM) and placebo (37 with placebo) groups, and neuropsychological and neuroimaging data were acquired at baseline and after 6-month treatment. After treatment, compared to the placebo group, the drug groups showed significantly improved performance in Alzheimer's Disease Assessment Scale-Cognitive subscale (ADAS-cog) score (p < 0.001) and the other cognitive domains. And with the reconstruction of white matter structural network, there were more streamlines connecting the left thalamus and right hippocampus in the drug groups (p < 0.001 uncorrected), with decreasing nodal efficiency of the right olfactory associated with slower decline in the general cognition (r = -0.364, p = 0.048). Moreover, support vector machine classification analyses revealed significant white matter network alterations after treatment in the drug groups (accuracy of baseline vs. 6-month later, 68.18 %). Taking together, the present study showed significant efficacy of DZSM treatment on VCI, which might result from white matter microstructure alterations and the topological changes in brain structural network.",2020,"After treatment, compared to the placebo group, the drug groups showed significantly improved performance in Alzheimer's Disease Assessment Scale-Cognitive subscale (ADAS-cog) score (p < 0.001) and the other cognitive domains.","['82 VCI patients', 'patients with vascular cognitive impairment']","['Dengzhan Shengmai (DZSM) capsules, one TCM herbal preparations', 'placebo', 'Network topology and machine learning', 'placebo (37 with placebo', 'DZSM']","['general cognition', 'white matter network alterations', 'nodal efficiency', ""performance in Alzheimer's Disease Assessment Scale-Cognitive subscale (ADAS-cog) score""]","[{'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patient'}, {'cui': 'C3805043', 'cui_str': 'Vascular cognitive impairment'}]","[{'cui': 'C3885966', 'cui_str': 'shengmai'}, {'cui': 'C0006935', 'cui_str': 'Capsule'}, {'cui': 'C0949854', 'cui_str': 'Plant Preparation'}, {'cui': 'C0032042', 'cui_str': 'Sham Treatment'}, {'cui': 'C0150775', 'cui_str': 'Social Networks'}, {'cui': 'C0002812', 'cui_str': 'Regional Anatomy'}, {'cui': 'C0376284', 'cui_str': 'Machine Learning'}]","[{'cui': 'C0205246', 'cui_str': 'Generalized'}, {'cui': 'C0009240', 'cui_str': 'Cognitive Function'}, {'cui': 'C0007457', 'cui_str': 'Caucasian'}, {'cui': 'C0150775', 'cui_str': 'Social Networks'}, {'cui': 'C0443268', 'cui_str': 'Nodal'}, {'cui': 'C0013682', 'cui_str': 'Efficiency'}, {'cui': 'C0450989', 'cui_str': ""Alzheimer's Disease Assessment Scale""}, {'cui': 'C0009738', 'cui_str': 'Congo'}, {'cui': 'C0449820', 'cui_str': 'Score'}]",82.0,0.257526,"After treatment, compared to the placebo group, the drug groups showed significantly improved performance in Alzheimer's Disease Assessment Scale-Cognitive subscale (ADAS-cog) score (p < 0.001) and the other cognitive domains.","[{'ForeName': 'Hui', 'Initials': 'H', 'LastName': 'Lu', 'Affiliation': 'School of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Southern Medical University, Guangzhou 510515, PR China.'}, {'ForeName': 'Junying', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Zhang', 'Affiliation': 'Institute of Basic Research in Clinical Medicine, China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences, Beijing 100700, PR China; State Key Laboratory of Cognitive Neuroscience and Learning & IDG/McGovern Institute for Brain Research, Beijing Normal University, Beijing 100875, PR China.'}, {'ForeName': 'Ying', 'Initials': 'Y', 'LastName': 'Liang', 'Affiliation': 'School of Biomedical Engineering, Capital Medical University, Beijing, 100069, PR China.'}, {'ForeName': 'Yanan', 'Initials': 'Y', 'LastName': 'Qiao', 'Affiliation': 'China-Japan Friendship Hospital 100029, PR China.'}, {'ForeName': 'Caishui', 'Initials': 'C', 'LastName': 'Yang', 'Affiliation': 'State Key Laboratory of Cognitive Neuroscience and Learning & IDG/McGovern Institute for Brain Research, Beijing Normal University, Beijing 100875, PR China; BABRI Centre, Beijing Normal University, Beijing 100875, PR China.'}, {'ForeName': 'Xuwen', 'Initials': 'X', 'LastName': 'He', 'Affiliation': 'State Key Laboratory of Cognitive Neuroscience and Learning & IDG/McGovern Institute for Brain Research, Beijing Normal University, Beijing 100875, PR China; BABRI Centre, Beijing Normal University, Beijing 100875, PR China.'}, {'ForeName': 'Wenxiao', 'Initials': 'W', 'LastName': 'Wang', 'Affiliation': 'State Key Laboratory of Cognitive Neuroscience and Learning & IDG/McGovern Institute for Brain Research, Beijing Normal University, Beijing 100875, PR China; BABRI Centre, Beijing Normal University, Beijing 100875, PR China.'}, {'ForeName': 'Shaokun', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Zhao', 'Affiliation': 'State Key Laboratory of Cognitive Neuroscience and Learning & IDG/McGovern Institute for Brain Research, Beijing Normal University, Beijing 100875, PR China; BABRI Centre, Beijing Normal University, Beijing 100875, PR China.'}, {'ForeName': 'Dongfeng', 'Initials': 'D', 'LastName': 'Wei', 'Affiliation': 'Institute of Basic Research in Clinical Medicine, China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences, Beijing 100700, PR China; State Key Laboratory of Cognitive Neuroscience and Learning & IDG/McGovern Institute for Brain Research, Beijing Normal University, Beijing 100875, PR China.'}, {'ForeName': 'He', 'Initials': 'H', 'LastName': 'Li', 'Affiliation': 'Institute of Basic Research in Clinical Medicine, China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences, Beijing 100700, PR China; State Key Laboratory of Cognitive Neuroscience and Learning & IDG/McGovern Institute for Brain Research, Beijing Normal University, Beijing 100875, PR China.'}, {'ForeName': 'Weidong', 'Initials': 'W', 'LastName': 'Cheng', 'Affiliation': 'School of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Southern Medical University, Guangzhou 510515, PR China.

However, high cervical cancer mortality persists in low- and middle-income countries. As screening programs become more widely available, it is essential to understand how knowledge about cervical cancer and perceived disease risk impacts screening uptake and acceptability. We evaluated women's experiences with a cervical cancer education strategy led by community health volunteers (CHVs) in Migori County, Kenya, as part of a cluster randomized controlled trial of cervical cancer screening implementation strategies. The educational modules employed simple language and images and sought to increase understanding of the relationship between HPV and cervical cancer, the mechanisms of self-collected HPV testing, and the importance of cervical cancer screening. Modules took place in three different contexts throughout the study: (1) during community mobilization; (2) prior to screening in either community health campaigns or health facilities; and (3) prior to treatment. Between January and September 2016, we conducted in-depth interviews with 525 participants to assess their experience with various aspects of the screening program. After the context-specific educational modules, women reported increased awareness of cervical cancer screening and willingness to screen, described HPV- and cervical cancer-related stigma and emphasized the use of educational modules to reduce stigma.

238,32338621,Effectiveness of a Home-Based Rehabilitation Program After Total Hip Arthroplasty Driven by a Tablet App and Remote Coaching: Nonrandomized Controlled Trial Combining a Single-Arm Intervention Cohort With Historical Controls.,"BACKGROUND
Recent technological developments such as wearable sensors and tablets with a mobile internet connection hold promise for providing electronic health home-based programs with remote coaching for patients following total hip arthroplasty. It can be hypothesized that such a home-based rehabilitation program can offer an effective alternative to usual care.
OBJECTIVE
The aim of this study was to determine the effectiveness of a home-based rehabilitation program driven by a tablet app and remote coaching for patients following total hip arthroplasty.
METHODS
Existing data of two studies were combined, in which patients of a single-arm intervention study were matched with historical controls of an observational study. Patients aged 18-65 years who had undergone total hip arthroplasty as a treatment for primary or secondary osteoarthritis were included. The intervention consisted of a 12-week home-based rehabilitation program with video instructions on a tablet and remote coaching (intervention group). Patients were asked to do strengthening and walking exercises at least 5 days a week. Data of the intervention group were compared with those of patients who received usual care (control group). Effectiveness was measured at four moments (preoperatively, and 4 weeks, 12 weeks, and 6 months postoperatively) by means of functional tests (Timed Up & Go test and the Five Times Sit-to Stand Test) and self-reported questionnaires (Hip disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score [HOOS] and Short Form 36 [SF-36]). Each patient of the intervention group was matched with two patients of the control group. Patient characteristics were summarized with descriptive statistics. The 1:2 matching situation was analyzed with a conditional logistic regression. Effect sizes were calculated by Cohen d.
RESULTS
Overall, 15 patients of the intervention group were included in this study, and 15 and 12 subjects from the control group were matched to the intervention group, respectively. The intervention group performed functional tests significantly faster at 12 weeks and 6 months postoperatively. The intervention group also scored significantly higher on the subscales ""function in sport and recreational activities"" and ""hip-related quality of life"" of HOOS, and on the subscale ""physical role limitations"" of SF-36 at 12 weeks and 6 months postoperatively. Large effect sizes were found on functional tests at 12 weeks and at 6 months (Cohen d=0.5-1.2), endorsed by effect sizes on the self-reported outcomes.
CONCLUSIONS
Our results clearly demonstrate larger effects in the intervention group compared to the historical controls. These results imply that a home-based rehabilitation program delivered by means of internet technology after total hip arthroplasty can be more effective than usual care.

239,32338622,Implementation and Effects of Information Technology-Based and Print-Based Interventions to Promote Physical Activity Among Community-Dwelling Older Adults: Protocol for a Randomized Crossover Trial.,"BACKGROUND
Despite the known health benefits of physical activity (PA), less than half and less than one-third of older adults in Germany reach the PA recommendations for endurance training and strength training, respectively, of the World Health Organization. The aim of this study is to investigate the implementation and effectiveness over the course of 9 months of two interventions (information technology [IT]-based vs print-based) for PA promotion among initially inactive older adults in a randomized, crossover trial. This study is part of a large research consortium (2015-2021) investigating different aspects of PA promotion. The IT-based intervention was previously developed and refined, while the print-based intervention was newly developed during this funding phase.
OBJECTIVE
We aim to compare the effectiveness and examine the preferences of study participants regarding both delivery modes.
METHODS
Our target sample size was 390 initially inactive community-dwelling older adults aged ≥60 years at baseline (3-month follow-up [T1]: expected n=300; 9-month follow-up [T2]: expected n=240) who were randomized to one of two interventions for self-monitoring PA: IT-based (50%) or print-based (50%) intervention. In addition, 30% of the IT-based intervention group received a PA tracker. At T1, participants in both groups could choose whether they prefered to keep their assigned intervention or cross over to the other group for the following 6 months (T2). Participants' intervention preferences at baseline were collected retrospectively to run a post hoc matched-mismatched analysis. During the initial 3-month intervention period, both intervention groups were offered weekly group sessions that were continued monthly between T1 and T2. A self-administered questionnaire and 3D accelerometers were employed to assess changes in PA between baseline, T1, and T2. Adherence to PA recommendations, attendance at group sessions, and acceptance of the interventions were also tracked.
RESULTS
The funding period started in February 2018 and ends in January 2021. We obtained institutional review board approval for the study from the Medical Association in Bremen on July 3, 2018. Data collection was completed on January 31, 2020, and data cleaning and analysis started in February 2020. We expect to publish the first results by the end of the funding period.
CONCLUSIONS
Strategies to promote active aging are of particular relevance in Germany, as 29% of the population is projected to be ≥65 years old by 2030. Regular PA is a key contributor to healthy aging. This study will provide insights into the acceptance and effectiveness of IT-based vs print-based interventions to promote PA in initially inactive individuals aged ≥60 years. Results obtained in this study will improve the existing evidence base on the effectiveness of community-based PA interventions in Germany and will inform efforts to anchor evidence-based PA interventions in community structures and organizations via an allocation of permanent health insurance funds.

240,32338624,A Mobile Health Solution Complementing Psychopharmacology-Supported Smoking Cessation: Randomized Controlled Trial.,"BACKGROUND
Smoking cessation is a persistent leading public health challenge. Mobile health (mHealth) solutions are emerging to improve smoking cessation treatments. Previous approaches have proposed supporting cessation with tailored motivational messages. Some managed to provide short-term improvements in smoking cessation. Yet, these approaches were either static in terms of personalization or human-based nonscalable solutions. Additionally, long-term effects were neither presented nor assessed in combination with existing psychopharmacological therapies.
OBJECTIVE
This study aimed to analyze the long-term efficacy of a mobile app supporting psychopharmacological therapy for smoking cessation and complementarily assess the involved innovative technology.
METHODS
A 12-month, randomized, open-label, parallel-group trial comparing smoking cessation rates was performed at Virgen del Rocío University Hospital in Seville (Spain). Smokers were randomly allocated to a control group (CG) receiving usual care (psychopharmacological treatment, n=120) or an intervention group (IG) receiving psychopharmacological treatment and using a mobile app providing artificial intelligence-generated and tailored smoking cessation support messages (n=120). The secondary objectives were to analyze health-related quality of life and monitor healthy lifestyle and physical exercise habits. Safety was assessed according to the presence of adverse events related to the pharmacological therapy. Per-protocol and intention-to-treat analyses were performed. Incomplete data and multinomial regression analyses were performed to assess the variables influencing participant cessation probability. The technical solution was assessed according to the precision of the tailored motivational smoking cessation messages and user engagement. Cessation and no cessation subgroups were compared using t tests. A voluntary satisfaction questionnaire was administered at the end of the intervention to all participants who completed the trial.
RESULTS
In the IG, abstinence was 2.75 times higher (adjusted OR 3.45, P=.01) in the per-protocol analysis and 2.15 times higher (adjusted OR 3.13, P=.002) in the intention-to-treat analysis. Lost data analysis and multinomial logistic models showed different patterns in participants who dropped out. Regarding safety, 14 of 120 (11.7%) IG participants and 13 of 120 (10.8%) CG participants had 19 and 23 adverse events, respectively (P=.84). None of the clinical secondary objective measures showed relevant differences between the groups. The system was able to learn and tailor messages for improved effectiveness in supporting smoking cessation but was unable to reduce the time between a message being sent and opened. In either case, there was no relevant difference between the cessation and no cessation subgroups. However, a significant difference was found in system engagement at 6 months (P=.04) but not in all subsequent months. High system appreciation was reported at the end of the study.
CONCLUSIONS
The proposed mHealth solution complementing psychopharmacological therapy showed greater efficacy for achieving 1-year tobacco abstinence as compared with psychopharmacological therapy alone. It provides a basis for artificial intelligence-based future approaches.

241,32336236,Blood Pressure-Lowering Profiles and Clinical Effects of Angiotensin Receptor Blockers Versus Calcium Channel Blockers.,"Blood pressure-lowering drugs have different blood pressure-lowering profiles. We studied if differences in blood pressure mean and variability can explain the differences in risks of cardiovascular events and death among 15 245 high-risk hypertensive patients randomized to valsartan or amlodipine and followed for 4.2 years in the VALUE trial (Valsartan Antihypertensive Long-Term Use Evaluation). We selected patients with ≥3 visits and performed Cox regression analyses, defining mean blood pressure as a time-dependent covariate and visit-to-visit and within-visit blood pressure variability as the SD. Of 14 996 eligible patients, participants in the valsartan group had higher systolic mean blood pressure by 2.2 mm Hg, higher visit-to-visit systolic variability by 1.4 mm Hg, and higher within-visit systolic variability by 0.2 mm Hg ( P values <0.0001). The higher risks of myocardial infarction and stroke in the valsartan group was attenuated after adjustment for mean and variability of systolic blood pressure, from HR 1.19 (95% CI, 1.02-1.39) to 1.11 (0.96-1.30) and from HR 1.13 (0.96-1.33) to 1.00 (0.85-1.18), respectively. The lower risk of congestive heart failure in the valsartan group was accentuated after adjustment, from HR 0.86 (0.74-1.00) to 0.76 (0.65-0.89). A smaller effect was seen on risk of death, from 1.01 (0.92-1.12) to 0.94 (0.85-1.04).

242,32305012,"The effect of combined functional training on BDNF, IGF-1, and their association with health-related fitness in the multiple sclerosis women.","OBJECTIVE
Exercise-induced changes in the neurotrophic factors and the physical function are essential for the rehabilitation of the multiple sclerosis (MS) persons. The aim of this study was investigating of effectiveness of the combined functional training (CFT) on brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1), and their association with health-related fitness in the MS women.
DESIGN
Twenty women with relapsing-remitting MS randomly assigned to CFT and control (CON) groups. The CFT consisted of 8 weeks (3 days per week) rhythmic aerobic exercise, TRX suspension training, elastic band training, and bodyweight training. BDNF, IGF-1, and health-related fitness components were assessed before and after the intervention.
RESULTS
There was no significant difference in BDNF level between the CFT and the CON group. In contrast, IGF-1, walking speed, and strength of the right- and left-hand was significantly increased in the CFT compared with the CON group. Furthermore, there was a significant and positive correlation between IGF-1 and some fitness components.

243,32305456,Computerized intervention for reducing intimate partner victimization for perinatal women seeking mental health treatment: A multisite randomized clinical trial protocol.,"Intimate partner victimization (IPV) is a significant social and public health problem among perinatal women. Research suggests that 21% to 33% of perinatal women report IPV and there is an enormous amount of morbidity associated with IPV. Moreover, IPV places women at high risk for several psychiatric disorders, which transforms the perinatal period from an already challenging process into a potentially overwhelming one. Further, IPV and untreated mental illness during the perinatal period pose a dual risk of adverse physical and emotional outcomes for women and their developing fetus/infant. Given the high rates of IPV among women who seek mental health treatment, mental health clinics compared to other medical settings are more effective sites for focused case finding and intervention. Our team has successfully tested an innovative, computerized intervention, Strength for U in Relationship Empowerment (SURE). SURE is a brief, interactive program consistent with motivational interviewing and incorporates empowerment strategies. The proposed multisite randomized clinical trial (N = 186) will test whether SURE relative to control is associated with reduced IPV, greater positive affect and well-being, and greater perceived emotional support. We will also evaluate the role of theoretical mediators of empowerment and self-efficacy. Finally, we will estimate the resources needed and costs to deliver SURE, as well as the incremental cost effectiveness of SURE compared with treatment as usual. If SURE is found to be efficacious and cost effective, it can be easily integrated into clinical care and will fill a critical gap for a vulnerable, high-risk population.",2020,"Our team has successfully tested an innovative, computerized intervention, Strength for U in Relationship Empowerment","['perinatal women seeking mental health treatment', 'women who seek mental health treatment, mental health clinics', 'perinatal women', 'women and their developing fetus/infant']","['Intimate partner victimization (IPV', 'Computerized intervention']",['adverse physical and emotional outcomes'],"[{'cui': 'C0178795', 'cui_str': 'Perinatal period'}, {'cui': 'C0043210', 'cui_str': 'Woman'}, {'cui': 'C0184647', 'cui_str': 'Mental health treatment'}, {'cui': 'C3839912', 'cui_str': 'Mental health clinic'}, {'cui': 'C0015965', 'cui_str': 'Fetuses'}, {'cui': 'C0021270', 'cui_str': 'Infant'}]","[{'cui': 'C0699756', 'cui_str': 'Intimate'}, {'cui': 'C0682323', 'cui_str': 'Partner in relationship'}, {'cui': 'C0376695', 'cui_str': 'Victimization'}, {'cui': 'C0184661', 'cui_str': 'Procedure'}]","[{'cui': 'C0031809', 'cui_str': 'Physical examination'}, {'cui': 'C0013987', 'cui_str': 'Emotion'}, {'cui': 'C1274040', 'cui_str': 'Result'}]",186.0,0.0511695,"Our team has successfully tested an innovative, computerized intervention, Strength for U in Relationship Empowerment","[{'ForeName': 'Dawn M', 'Initials': 'DM', 'LastName': 'Johnson', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Psychology, University of Akron, Akron, OH 44325-4301, USA.

244,32305457,"Translating research into practice: Protocol for a community-engaged, stepped wedge randomized trial to reduce disparities in breast cancer treatment through a regional patient navigation collaborative.","BACKGROUND
Racial and socioeconomic disparities in breast cancer mortality persist. In Boston, MA, Black, Non-Hispanic women and Medicaid-insured individuals are 2-3 times more likely to have delays in treatment compared to White or privately insured women. While evidence-based care coordination strategies for reducing delays exist, they are not systematically implemented across healthcare settings.
METHODS
Translating Research Into Practice (TRIP) utilizes community engaged research methods to address breast cancer care delivery disparities. Four Massachusetts Clinical and Translational Science Institute (CTSI) hubs collaborated with the Boston Breast Cancer Equity Coalition (The Coalition) to implement an evidence-based care coordination intervention for Boston residents at risk for delays in breast cancer care. The Coalition used a community-driven process to define the problem of care delivery disparities, identify the target population, and develop a rigorous pragmatic approach. We chose a cluster-randomized, stepped-wedge hybrid type I effectiveness-implementation study design. The intervention implements three evidence-based strategies: patient navigation services, a shared patient registry for use across academic medical centers, and a web-based social determinants of health platform to identify and address barriers to care. Primary clinical outcomes include time to first treatment and receipt of guideline-concordant treatment, which are captured through electronic health records abstraction. We will use mixed methods to collect the secondary implementation outcomes of acceptability, adoption/penetration, fidelity, sustainability and cost.
CONCLUSION
TRIP utilizes an innovative community-driven research strategy, focused on interdisciplinary collaborations, to design and implement a translational science study that aims to more efficiently integrate proven health services interventions into clinical practice.",2020,"The intervention implements three evidence-based strategies: patient navigation services, a shared patient registry for use across academic medical centers, and a web-based social determinants of health platform to identify and address barriers to care.",[],['stepped-wedge hybrid type'],"['time to first treatment and receipt of guideline-concordant treatment, which are captured through electronic health records abstraction', 'acceptability, adoption/penetration, fidelity, sustainability and cost']",[],"[{'cui': 'C0427149', 'cui_str': 'Foot-drop gait'}, {'cui': 'C0439639', 'cui_str': 'Wedge'}, {'cui': 'C0007597', 'cui_str': 'Cell hybridization'}, {'cui': 'C0332307', 'cui_str': 'Type - attribute'}]","[{'cui': 'C0040223', 'cui_str': 'Time'}, {'cui': 'C0039798', 'cui_str': 'therapy'}, {'cui': 'C0162791', 'cui_str': 'Guidelines as Topic'}, {'cui': 'C2362543', 'cui_str': 'Computer record of patient'}, {'cui': 'C3645535', 'cui_str': 'Acceptability'}, {'cui': 'C0001593', 'cui_str': 'Adoption'}, {'cui': 'C0205321', 'cui_str': 'Penetrating'}, {'cui': 'C0010186', 'cui_str': 'Cost'}]",,0.050151,"The intervention implements three evidence-based strategies: patient navigation services, a shared patient registry for use across academic medical centers, and a web-based social determinants of health platform to identify and address barriers to care.","[{'ForeName': 'Tracy A', 'Initials': 'TA', 'LastName': 'Battaglia', 'Affiliation': ""Women's Health Unit, Section of General Internal Medicine, Boston University School of Medicine, Boston, MA, United States of America.

245,32320843,"Brief cessation advice, nicotine replacement therapy sampling and active referral (BANSAR) for smoking expectant fathers: Study protocol for a multicentre, pragmatic randomised controlled trial.","BACKGROUND
Pregnancy presents a teachable moment to engage male smokers whose partners are pregnant in smoking cessation. Evidence on how to approach and help these smokers quit smoking in antenatal settings has remained scarce. This paper presents the rationale and study design of a trial which aims to evaluate the effectiveness of a brief intervention model for promoting smoking cessation in expectant fathers.
METHODS
BANSAR is a pragmatic randomised controlled trial conducted in antenatal clinic in seven public hospitals in Hong Kong, China. An estimated 1148 fathers who smoke at least one cigarette daily and whose partners are pregnant and non-smoking will be randomised (1:1) to receive brief advice combined with 1-week sample of nicotine replacement therapy (NRT) and active referral to smoking cessation services, or brief advice only (usual care). Outcome will be assessed at 3 and 6 months after treatment initiation. The primary outcome is carbon monoxide-verified (<4 part per million) abstinence at 6 months post-treatment initiation. Secondary outcomes include self-reported 7-day point-prevalence abstinence and 24-week continuous abstinence, use of smoking cessation service and NRT and quit attempt, and smoking reduction, change in nicotine dependence and intention to quit in continuing smokers.
COMMENT
This trial will provide real-world evidence on the effectiveness of a combined brief intervention model for smoking cessation in expectant fathers, an understudied population. The findings may be particularly relevant to low and middle-income countries, where male-to-female smoking ratios and birth rates tend to be higher than higher-income countries.

246,32329737,Facilitators and Barriers to Chronic Disease Self-Management and Mobile Health Interventions for People Living With Diabetes and Hypertension in Cambodia: Qualitative Study.,"BACKGROUND
In many low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), heart disease and stroke are the leading causes of death as cardiovascular risk factors such as diabetes and hypertension rapidly increase. The Cambodian nongovernmental organization, MoPoTsyo, trains local residents with diabetes to be peer educators (PEs) to deliver chronic disease self-management training and medications to 14,000 people with hypertension and/or diabetes in Cambodia. We collaborated with MoPoTsyo to develop a mobile-based messaging intervention (mobile health; mHealth) to link MoPoTsyo's database, PEs, pharmacies, clinics, and people living with diabetes and/or hypertension to improve adherence to evidence-based treatment guidelines.
OBJECTIVE
This study aimed to understand the facilitators and barriers to chronic disease management and the acceptability, appropriateness, and feasibility of mHealth to support chronic disease management and strengthen community-clinical linkages to existing services.
METHODS
We conducted an exploratory qualitative study using semistructured interviews and focus groups with PEs and people living with diabetes and/or hypertension. Interviews were recorded and conducted in Khmer script, transcribed and translated into the English language, and uploaded into Atlas.ti for analysis. We used a thematic analysis to identify key facilitators and barriers to disease management and opportunities for mHealth content and format. The information-motivation-behavioral model was used to guide data collection, analysis, and message development.
RESULTS
We conducted six focus groups (N=59) and 11 interviews in one urban municipality and five rural operating districts from three provinces in October 2016. PE network participants desired mHealth to address barriers to chronic disease management through reminders about medications, laboratory tests and doctor's consultations, education on how to incorporate self-management into their daily lives, and support for obstacles to disease management. Participants preferred mobile-based voice messages to arrive at dinnertime for improved phone access and family support. They desired voice messages over texts to communicate trust and increase accessibility for persons with limited literacy, vision, and smartphone access. PEs shared similar views and perceived mHealth as acceptable and feasible for supporting their work. We developed 34 educational, supportive, and reminder mHealth messages based on these findings.
CONCLUSIONS
These mHealth messages are currently being tested in a cluster randomized controlled trial (#1R21TW010160) to improve diabetes and hypertension control in Cambodia. This study has implications for practice and policies in Cambodia and other LMICs and low-resource US settings that are working to engage PEs and build community-clinical linkages to facilitate chronic disease management.",2020,"PE network participants desired mHealth to address barriers to chronic disease management through reminders about medications, laboratory tests and doctor's consultations, education on how to incorporate self-management into their daily lives, and support for obstacles to disease management.","['six focus groups (N=59) and 11 interviews in one urban municipality and five rural operating districts from three provinces in October 2016', 'semistructured interviews and focus groups with PEs and people living with diabetes and/or hypertension', '14,000 people with hypertension and/or diabetes in Cambodia', 'People Living With Diabetes and Hypertension in Cambodia']",['Facilitators and Barriers to Chronic Disease Self-Management and Mobile Health Interventions'],[],"[{'cui': 'C0016400', 'cui_str': 'Focus Groups'}, {'cui': 'C0021822', 'cui_str': 'Interviews as Topic'}, {'cui': 'C0442529', 'cui_str': 'Urban environment'}, {'cui': 'C0027361', 'cui_str': 'Person'}, {'cui': 'C0595998', 'cui_str': 'Household composition'}, {'cui': 'C0020538', 'cui_str': 'Hypertensive disorder'}, {'cui': 'C0006797', 'cui_str': 'Cambodia'}]","[{'cui': 'C0173022', 'cui_str': 'Barrier (varnish)'}, {'cui': 'C0008679', 'cui_str': 'Chronic disease'}, {'cui': 'C0086969', 'cui_str': 'Self Management'}, {'cui': 'C2718080', 'cui_str': 'mHealth'}, {'cui': 'C0184661', 'cui_str': 'Procedure'}]",[],,0.050163,"PE network participants desired mHealth to address barriers to chronic disease management through reminders about medications, laboratory tests and doctor's consultations, education on how to incorporate self-management into their daily lives, and support for obstacles to disease management.","[{'ForeName': 'Lesley', 'Initials': 'L', 'LastName': 'Steinman', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Health Services, University of Washington, Seattle, WA, United States.'}, {'ForeName': 'Hen', 'Initials': 'H', 'LastName': 'Heang', 'Affiliation': 'MoPoTsyo Patient Information Centre, Phnom Penh, Cambodia.'}, {'ForeName': 'Maurits', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'van Pelt', 'Affiliation': 'MoPoTsyo Patient Information Centre, Phnom Penh, Cambodia.'}, {'ForeName': 'Nicole', 'Initials': 'N', 'LastName': 'Ide', 'Affiliation': 'Division of General Internal Medicine, University of Washington, Seattle, WA, United States.'}, {'ForeName': 'Haixia', 'Initials': 'H', 'LastName': 'Cui', 'Affiliation': 'MoPoTsyo Patient Information Centre, Phnom Penh, Cambodia.'}, {'ForeName': 'Mayuree', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Rao', 'Affiliation': 'Division of General Internal Medicine, University of Washington, Seattle, WA, United States.'}, {'ForeName': 'James', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'LoGerfo', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Medicine, University of Washington, Seattle, WA, United States.'}, {'ForeName': 'Annette', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Fitzpatrick', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Global Health, University of Washington, Seattle, WA, United States.'}]",JMIR mHealth and uHealth,['10.2196/13536']
247,32329742,The Kids Obesity Prevention Program: Cluster Randomized Controlled Trial to Evaluate a Serious Game for the Prevention and Treatment of Childhood Obesity.,"BACKGROUND
Health games provide opportunities for the treatment and prevention of childhood obesity. We developed a motion-controlled serious game for children that addresses 3 core topics of nutrition, physical activity, and stress coping. It is the first serious game that extensively targets the dietary energy density principle (DED-P) in relation to nutrition. The game is intended to provide an additional educational component for the prevention and treatment of obesity in children.
OBJECTIVE
The Kids Obesity Prevention study aimed to evaluate the newly developed game and to evaluate how well children are able to understand and apply the DED-P.
METHODS
This cluster randomized controlled trial collected data from 82 primary school children aged 9 to 12 years and their parents at baseline (T0), at 2 weeks after study commencement (T1), and at the 4-week follow-up (T2). The dropout rate was 3.6%. The intervention group (IG) played the game within 2 weeks (2 sessions with different game modules). One part of the game involves selection of food with the lower energy density when presented with a pair of foods. This allows assessment of whether the children have understood the DED-P and whether they can apply it to unknown foods under time pressure. The control group (CG) received a brochure about the food pyramid concept and physical activity. The primary outcome was the gain in knowledge (nutrition and stress coping) and measured with a pretested questionnaire. The secondary outcomes were the maintenance of knowledge, application of the DED-P, feelings during game play, game acceptance, and behavioral measures (physical activity, media consumption, and dietary intake).
RESULTS
The knowledge score ranging from 0 to 100 increased from T0 (IG: 53 [SD 10], CG: 50 [SD 11]) to T1 (IG: 69 [SD 11], CG: 52 [SD 12]) in IG versus CG (P<.001). At T2, the knowledge score of IG remained at the same level as that of T1. Game data showed that after DED-P education, the classification under time pressure of unknown versus known food pairs according to their DED category was similar (hit rate around 70%). Overall, 95% of the children liked the game very much or much. No group changes were observed at the behavioral level.
CONCLUSIONS
The Kids Obesity Prevention program sustainably increased knowledge in the areas of nutrition and stress coping, and children were able to apply the DED-P.

248,32252004,Potential applications for rhIGF-I: Bone disease and IGFI.,"Growth hormone (GH) and insulin like growth factor-I (IGFI) are key bone trophic hormones, whose rising levels during puberty are critical for pubertal bone accrual. Conditions of GH deficiency and genetic resistance impact cortical and trabecular bone deleteriously with reduced estimates of bone strength. In humans, conditions of undernutrition (as in anorexia nervosa (AN), or subsequent to chronic illnesses) are associated with low IGF-I levels, which correlate with disease severity, and also with lower bone mineral density (BMD), impaired bone structure and lower strength estimates. In adolescents and adults with AN, studies have demonstrated a nutritionally acquired GH resistance with low IGF-I levels despite high concentrations of GH. IGF-I levels go up with increasing body weight, and are associated with rising levels of bone turnover markers. In short-term studies lasting 6-10 days, recombinant human IGF-I (rhIGF-I) administration in physiologic replacement doses normalized IGF-I levels and increased levels of bone formation markers in both adults and adolescents with AN. In a randomized controlled trial in adults with AN in which participants were randomized to one of four arms: (i) rhIGF-I with oral estrogen-progesterone (EP), (ii) rhIGF-I alone, (iii) EP alone, or (iv) neither for 9 months, a significant increase in bone formation markers was noted in the groups that received rhIGF-I, and a significant decrease in bone resorption markers in the groups that received EP. The group that received both rhIGF-I and EP had a significant increase in bone density at the spine and hip compared to the group that received neither. Side effects were minimal, with no documented fingerstick glucose of <50 mg/dl. These data thus suggest a potential role for rhIGF-I administration in optimizing bone accrual in states of undernutrition associated with low IGF-I.",2020,I and EP had a significant increase in bone density at the spine and hip compared to the group that received neither.,"['adults with AN in which participants', 'adults and adolescents with AN']","['recombinant human IGF-I (rhIGF-I) administration in physiologic replacement', 'rhIGF-I with oral estrogen-progesterone (EP), (ii) rhIGF-I alone, (iii) EP alone', 'rhIGF', 'Growth hormone (GH) and insulin like growth factor-I (IGFI']","['fingerstick glucose', 'bone formation markers', 'bone resorption markers', 'bone strength', 'bone density', 'levels of bone formation markers']","[{'cui': 'C0001675', 'cui_str': 'Adult'}, {'cui': 'C0205653', 'cui_str': 'Adolescent'}]","[{'cui': 'C0086418', 'cui_str': 'Homo sapiens'}, {'cui': 'C0021665', 'cui_str': 'Somatomedin C'}, {'cui': 'C0001554', 'cui_str': 'Administration'}, {'cui': 'C0205463', 'cui_str': 'Physiologic'}, {'cui': 'C0035139', 'cui_str': 'Reimplantation'}, {'cui': 'C0226896', 'cui_str': 'Oral cavity structure'}, {'cui': 'C0014939', 'cui_str': 'Estrogens'}, {'cui': 'C0033308', 'cui_str': 'Progesterone'}, {'cui': 'C0037663', 'cui_str': 'Somatotropin'}]","[{'cui': 'C0017725', 'cui_str': 'Glucose'}, {'cui': 'C0029433', 'cui_str': 'Bone formation'}, {'cui': 'C0005516', 'cui_str': 'Biological Markers'}, {'cui': 'C0005974', 'cui_str': 'Bone resorption'}, {'cui': 'C0262950', 'cui_str': 'Bone structure'}, {'cui': 'C0005938', 'cui_str': 'Bone Mineral Density'}, {'cui': 'C0441889', 'cui_str': 'Levels'}]",,0.0486261,I and EP had a significant increase in bone density at the spine and hip compared to the group that received neither.,"[{'ForeName': 'Marisol', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Bahamonde', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Pediatrics, Universidad San Francisco de Quito (USFQ), Cumbayá, Ecuador.'}, {'ForeName': 'Madhusmita', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Misra', 'Affiliation': 'Division of Pediatric Endocrinology, Massachusetts General Hospital for Children, USA; Neuroendocrine Unit, Massachusetts General Hospital, Boston, MA, USA.

249,31923550,Adherence to adding inhaled corticosteroids to rescue therapy in a pragmatic trial with adults with asthma: A pilot study.,"BACKGROUND
Underuse of guideline-recommended inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) controller therapy is a risk factor for greater asthma burden. ICS concomitantly used with rescue inhalers (Patient-Activated Reliever-Triggered ICS ['PARTICS']) reduced asthma exacerbations in efficacy trials, but whether PARTICS is effective in pragmatic trials is unknown.
OBJECTIVE
We conducted this pilot to determine the feasibility of executing a large-scale pragmatic PARTICS trial and to improve study protocols.
METHODS
Four sites recruited 33 Hispanic or black adults with persistent asthma, randomized them approximately 3:1 to intervention or usual care, and followed them for 12 weeks. All participants received asthma guideline-based educational videos; intervention participants received video-based instructions on implementing PARTICS plus usual medications. The study involved 1 randomization visit and monthly questionnaires. Timely questionnaire responses (±2 weeks) were monitored. Participants underwent qualitative phone interviews to assess self-reported adherence to PARTICS and understand barriers to completing study procedures.
RESULTS
Timely questionnaire response rates were 61%, 64%, and 70% at 4, 8, and 12 weeks, respectively. Self-reported adherence to PARTICS was 76% (95% confidence interval [CI], 58%-94% [n = 21]), 88% (95%CI, 72%-100% [n = 16]), and 62% (95%CI, 36%-88% [n = 13]) at weeks 1, 6, and 12, respectively. Barriers to completing study procedures included difficulties with questionnaire access, remembering to use ICS and rescue inhalers together, and obtaining refills. Only 22% of participants recognized their short-acting bronchodilator as ""reliever"" or ""rescue.""
CONCLUSION
Recruitment was feasible within the allocated period. Adherence to PARTICS was incomplete, questionnaire completion was suboptimal, and common rescue inhaler nomenclature usage was limited. We have modified the full study protocol to attempt to improve adherence to PARTICS and minimize barriers to study procedures.

This randomised, double-blinded, placebo-controlled trial was conducted among sixty-one vitamin D-deficient diabetic patients with CHD. At baseline, the range of serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels in study participants was 6·3-19·9 ng/ml. Subjects were randomly assigned into two groups either taking 50 000 IU vitamin D supplements every 2 weeks plus 2× 1000 mg/d n-3 fatty acids from flaxseed oil (n 30) or placebo (n 31) for 6 months.

251,32189042,Varied movement errors drive learning of dynamic balance control during walking in people with incomplete spinal cord injury: a pilot study.,"The purpose of this study was to determine whether the application of a varied pelvis perturbation force would improve dynamic balance control and gait stability of people with incomplete spinal cord injury (iSCI). Fourteen participants with iSCI completed the test in two conditions, i.e., walking paired with pelvis perturbation force and treadmill walking only, with 1-week interval in between. The order of the testing condition was randomized across participants. For the pelvis pertubation condition, subjects walked on a treadmill with no force for 1 min, with a varied pelvis perturbation force that was bilaterally applied in the medial-lateral direction for 10 min, without force for 1 min, and then with the perturbation for another 10 min after a sitting break. For the treadmill only condition, a protocol that was similar to the perturbation condition was used but no force was applied. Margin of stability (MoS), weight shifting, and other spatiotemporal gait parameters were calculated. Compared to treadmill training only, participants showed significant smaller MoS and double-leg support time after treadmill walking with pelvis perturbation.

252,32330594,Pilot study of combined aerobic and resistance exercise on fatigue for patients with head and neck cancer: Inflammatory and epigenetic changes.,"This pilot study examined whether a combined aerobic resistance exercise program reduced fatigue and the potential inflammatory and epigenetic mechanisms in patients with head and neck cancer (HNC) receiving intensity-modulated radiotherapy. The exercise group (N = 12) received a 3-month supervised aerobic resistance exercise intervention that was initiated before a 6-week radiotherapy regimen; the control group (N = 14) received standard care. Fatigue was measured using Multidimensional Fatigue Inventory-20; physical function measures included a 6-minute walk distance (6MWD), chair stands, bicep curls, and hand grip strength. Inflammatory markers and DNA methylation data were acquired using standardized protocol. Patients were mostly white (93%) and male (81%) with a mean age of 57 years. At the end of the intervention, the exercise group had a marginal decrease in fatigue compared with the control (-5.0 vs. 4.9; P = 0.10). The exercise group had a significantly greater improvement in 6MWD (29.8 vs. -55.5 m; P = 0.04), and a marginally smaller decline in hand grip (-0.3 vs. -5.8 lbs; P = 0.05) at the end of the intervention than the control. No significant difference in inflammatory markers was observed between groups. Lower plasma interleukin (IL) 6, IL1 receptor antagonist, tumor necrosis factor α (TNFα), soluble TNF receptor II and C-reactive protein were significantly associated with increased 6MWD, chair stand, and bicep curl at the end of the intervention (p < 0.05). Among the 1152 differentially methylated sites (DMS) after intervention (p < 0.001), 163 DMS were located in gene promoter regions. Enrichment analysis suggested that the top 10 upstream regulators were associated with tumor (HNF4A, RPP38, HOXA9, SAHM1, CDK7, NDN, RPS15) and inflammation (IRF7, CRKL, ONECUT1). The top 5 diseases or functions annotations of the 62 hypermethylated DMS indicated anti-tumor and anti-inflammatory effects that might be linked to exercise. These findings suggest that exercise may improve physical performance and reduce fatigue, which could be further linked to decreased inflammation, during active radiotherapy for HNC patients.

253,32298704,Pain-modulating effects of oxytocin in patients with chronic low back pain.,"The neuropeptide oxytocin (OT) has been shown to play a modulatory role in nociception. However, analgesic effects of OT in chronic pain conditions remain elusive and the neural underpinnings have not yet been investigated in humans. Here, we conducted an exploratory, randomized, placebo-controlled, cross-over study to examine effects of intranasal OT in male patients suffering from chronic low back pain (CBP) versus healthy controls (HC). N = 22 participants with CBP and 22 HCs were scanned using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) while they continuously rated either spontaneously occurring back pain or acute thermal pain stimuli applied to the lower back. During heat pain processing we found that OT versus PL attenuated pain intensity ratings and increased BOLD responses in the caudate nucleus of the striatum in CBP versus HCs. Spontaneously experienced pain in contrast to heat pain was associated with activation changes in the medial frontal cortex (MFC) and the anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) as reported in previous studies. However, we did not observe OT effects on spontaneously experienced pain in CBP patients. Overall, our preliminary data may suggest that the striatum is a key structure underlying the pain-modulating effects of OT in patients with chronic pain and adds to the growing evidence linking the neuropeptide to pain modulation in humans. Further studies on neuronal OT effects in larger samples of chronic back pain patients are needed to understand probable mechanisms of OT effects in chronic pain.",2020,During heat pain processing we found that OT versus PL attenuated pain intensity ratings and increased BOLD responses in the caudate nucleus of the striatum in CBP versus HCs.,"['N\u202f=\u202f22 participants with CBP and 22\u202fHCs', 'male patients suffering from chronic low back pain (CBP) versus healthy controls (HC', 'patients with chronic low back pain', 'chronic back pain patients', 'patients with chronic pain']","['neuropeptide oxytocin (OT', 'OT', 'OT versus PL', 'intranasal OT', 'placebo', 'functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) while they continuously rated either spontaneously occurring back pain or acute thermal pain stimuli applied to the lower back', 'oxytocin']","['BOLD responses', 'pain intensity ratings', 'medial frontal cortex (MFC) and the anterior cingulate cortex (ACC', 'OT effects']","[{'cui': 'C0457949', 'cui_str': 'Chronic low back pain'}, {'cui': 'C0032052', 'cui_str': 'Human placental lactogen'}, {'cui': 'C0086582', 'cui_str': 'Male'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patient'}, {'cui': 'C0009932', 'cui_str': 'Control Groups'}, {'cui': 'C0740418', 'cui_str': 'Chronic back pain'}, {'cui': 'C0150055', 'cui_str': 'Chronic pain'}]","[{'cui': 'C0027895', 'cui_str': 'Neuropeptide'}, {'cui': 'C0030095', 'cui_str': 'Oxytocin'}, {'cui': 'C0442118', 'cui_str': 'Intranasal approach'}, {'cui': 'C0032042', 'cui_str': 'Sham Treatment'}, {'cui': 'C0376335', 'cui_str': 'Magnetic Resonance Imaging, Functional'}, {'cui': 'C0034693', 'cui_str': 'Rattus norvegicus'}, {'cui': 'C2745955', 'cui_str': 'Occurrence'}, {'cui': 'C0004604', 'cui_str': 'Backache'}, {'cui': 'C0030193', 'cui_str': 'Pain'}, {'cui': 'C0234402', 'cui_str': 'Stimulus'}, {'cui': 'C1632850', 'cui_str': 'Apply'}, {'cui': 'C0004600', 'cui_str': 'Back'}]","[{'cui': 'C1320357', 'cui_str': 'Pain intensity'}, {'cui': 'C0205098', 'cui_str': 'Medial'}, {'cui': 'C0016733', 'cui_str': 'Frontal lobe structure'}, {'cui': 'C0175190', 'cui_str': 'Anterior Cingulate Gyrus'}, {'cui': 'C0030095', 'cui_str': 'Oxytocin'}, {'cui': 'C1280500', 'cui_str': 'Effect'}]",22.0,0.105867,During heat pain processing we found that OT versus PL attenuated pain intensity ratings and increased BOLD responses in the caudate nucleus of the striatum in CBP versus HCs.,"[{'ForeName': 'Sabrina', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Boll', 'Affiliation': 'Department of General Psychiatry, Center for Psychosocial Medicine, University Hospital Heidelberg, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Kai', 'Initials': 'K', 'LastName': 'Ueltzhoeffer', 'Affiliation': 'Department of General Psychiatry, Center for Psychosocial Medicine, University Hospital Heidelberg, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Corinna', 'Initials': 'C', 'LastName': 'Roth', 'Affiliation': 'Department of General Psychiatry, Center for Psychosocial Medicine, University Hospital Heidelberg, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Katja', 'Initials': 'K', 'LastName': 'Bertsch', 'Affiliation': 'Department of General Psychiatry, Center for Psychosocial Medicine, University Hospital Heidelberg, Germany; Department of Psychology and Psychotherapy, Ludwigs-Maximilian-University München, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Simon', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Desch', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Cognitive and Clinical Neuroscience, Central Institute of Mental Health, Medical Faculty Mannheim, Heidelberg University, Mannheim, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Frauke', 'Initials': 'F', 'LastName': 'Nees', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Cognitive and Clinical Neuroscience, Central Institute of Mental Health, Medical Faculty Mannheim, Heidelberg University, Mannheim, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Valery', 'Initials': 'V', 'LastName': 'Grinevich', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Neuropeptide Research in Psychiatry, Central Institute of Mental Health, Medical Faculty Mannheim, Heidelberg University, Mannheim, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Sabine C', 'Initials': 'SC', 'LastName': 'Herpertz', 'Affiliation': 'Department of General Psychiatry, Center for Psychosocial Medicine, University Hospital Heidelberg, Germany.

MI training has been show to enhance the subsequent motor performance. While the benefits of MI to manage stress have been extensively documented, the reverse impact of stress on MI received far less attention. The present study thus aimed to evaluate whether acute stress might influence MI abilities. Thirty participants were assigned either to a stress or a control group. The Socially Evaluated Cold Pressor Test (SECPT) was used to induce stress, with heart rate, electrodermal activity, salivary cortisol, and self-report perceived levels of stress being monitored during the experiment. Stress induction was followed by both implicit (laterality judgment) and explicit (sequential pointing) MI tasks.

255,32194219,Sitagliptin improves plasma apolipoprotein profile in type 2 diabetes: A randomized clinical trial of sitagliptin effect on lipid and glucose metabolism (SLIM) study.,"AIM
This study aims to evaluate the effect of dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors on lipid metabolism in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D).
METHODS
This is a multicenter, open-labeled, randomized controlled study. T2D patients with HbA1c 6.9-8.9% (52-74 mmol/mol) who were under treatment with sulfonylurea were randomly allocated to either the sitagliptin group or the non-sitagliptin group. Glucose and lipid metabolism parameters including apolipoproteins (apo), sterols, and urinary albumin were assessed at baseline, 3, and 6 months of the treatment.
RESULTS
A total of 164 patients completed the 6-month observation (n = 81 for sitagliptin and n = 83 for non-sitagliptin). HbA1c decreased in the sitagliptin group but not in the non-sitagliptin group. Serum TG and total, LDL and HDL cholesterol levels did not change in either group. Apo B-48, apo CII, and apo CIII levels decreased in the sitagliptin group, but not in the non-sitagliptin group.

256,31864728,High-Flow Nasal Cannula Versus Conventional Oxygen Therapy in Relieving Dyspnea in Emergency Palliative Patients With Do-Not-Intubate Status: A Randomized Crossover Study.,"STUDY OBJECTIVE
Palliative patients often visit the emergency department (ED) with respiratory distress during their end-of-life period. The goal of management is alleviating dyspnea and providing comfort. High-flow nasal cannula may be an alternative oxygen-delivering method for palliative patients with do-not-intubate status. We therefore aim to compare the efficacy of high-flow nasal cannula with conventional oxygen therapy in improving dyspnea of palliative patients with do-not-intubate status who have hypoxemic respiratory failure in the ED.
METHODS
This randomized, nonblinded, crossover study was conducted with 48 palliative patients aged 18 years or older with do-not-intubate status who presented with hypoxemic respiratory failure to the ED of Siriraj Hospital, Bangkok, Thailand. The participants were randomly allocated to conventional oxygen therapy for 60 minutes, followed by high-flow nasal cannula for 60 minutes (n=24) or vice versa (n=24). The primary outcome was modified Borg scale score. The secondary outcomes were numeric rating scale score of dyspnea and vital signs.
RESULTS
Intention-to-treat analysis included 44 patients, 22 in each group. Baseline mean modified Borg scale score was 7.6 (SD 2.2) (conventional oxygen therapy first) and 8.2 (SD 1.8) (high-flow nasal cannula first). At 60 minutes, mean modified Borg scale score in patients receiving conventional oxygen therapy and high-flow nasal cannula was 4.9 (standard of mean 0.3) and 2.9 (standard of mean 0.3), respectively (mean difference 2.0; 95% confidence interval 1.4 to 2.6). Results for the numeric rating scale score of dyspnea were similar to those for the modified Borg scale score. Respiratory rates were lower with high-flow nasal cannula (mean difference 5.9; 95% confidence interval 3.5 to 8.3), and high-flow nasal cannula was associated with a significantly lower first-hour morphine dose.
CONCLUSION
High-flow nasal cannula was superior to conventional oxygen therapy in reducing the severity of dyspnea in the first hour of treatment in patients with do-not-intubate status and hypoxemic respiratory failure.",2020,"Respiratory rates were lower with high-flow nasal cannula (mean difference 5.9; 95% confidence interval 3.5 to 8.3), and high-flow nasal cannula was associated with a significantly lower first-hour morphine dose.

257,32172171,PSA and VIM DBS efficiency in essential tremor depends on distance to the dentatorubrothalamic tract.,"OBJECTIVE
To investigate the relation between deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the posterior-subthalamic-area (PSA) and the ventral-intermediate-nucleus (VIM) and the distance to the dentatorubrothalamic tract (DRTT) in essential tremor (ET).
METHODS
Tremor rating scale (TRS) hemi-scores were analyzed in 13 ET patients, stimulated in both the VIM and the PSA in a randomized, crossover trial. Distances of PSA and VIM contacts to population-based DRTTs were calculated. The relationships between distance to DRTT and stimulation amplitude, as well as DBS efficiency (TRS improvement per amplitude) were investigated.
RESULTS
PSA contacts were closer to the DRTT (p = 0.019) and led to a greater improvement in TRS hemi-scores (p = 0.005) than VIM contacts. Proximity to the DRTT was related to lower amplitudes (p < 0.001) and higher DBS efficiency (p = 0.017).
CONCLUSIONS
Differences in tremor outcome and stimulation parameters between contacts in the PSA and the VIM can be explained by their different distance to the DRTT.",2020,"RESULTS

259,32330694,Loading modality and age influence teriparatide-induced bone formation in the human femoral neck.,"Teriparatide (TPTD) reduces risk of both vertebral and nonvertebral fracture, but increases bone mineral density (BMD) much more at the spine than the hip. TPTD and mechanical loading may have a synergistic anabolic effect on BMD, which may help explain these site-specific differences. Under normal daily activity, the femoral neck (FN) is under bending, placing one side under tension and the other under compression. We sought to further understand the relationship between mechanical loading and TPTD at the hip by investigating the effect of tensile versus compressive loading on TPTD stimulated bone formation indices in the human FN. Thirty-eight patients receiving total hip replacements for osteoarthritis were randomized to receive placebo (PBO) or TPTD for a mean treatment duration of 6 weeks prior to surgery, and double tetracycline labeling was administered to allow assessment of bone formation. The FN was harvested during surgery and analyzed for dynamic bone formation indices in the compressive and tensile regions of the endocortical and periosteal envelopes. Regression models relating outcome measures to patient characteristics including sex, age, body weight, and FN geometry were also analyzed. Overall, bone formation was higher with TPTD versus placebo on the endocortical surface, but not the periosteal surface. The level of bone formation in both TPTD and placebo groups was greater on the tensile endocortical surface and the compressive periosteal surface. There was a trend toward decreased endocortical eroded surface with TPTD in the compressive but not the tensile region. Patient age and sex explained the greatest variability in endocortical bone formation, and patient body mass and sex explained the greatest variability in periosteal bone formation. Our data represent the first dynamic comparison of teriparatide treatment under two loading modalities in human FN samples. Future work could determine whether specific hip loading intervention could amplify the benefits of teriparatide on the hip in clinical settings.",2020,"Overall, bone formation was higher with TPTD versus placebo on the endocortical surface, but not the periosteal surface.","['Thirty-eight patients receiving total hip replacements for osteoarthritis', 'human femoral neck', 'human FN']","['teriparatide', 'TPTD versus placebo', 'placebo', 'tetracycline labeling', 'teriparatide-induced bone formation', 'Teriparatide (TPTD', 'placebo (PBO) or TPTD']","['level of bone formation', 'bone mineral density (BMD', 'tensile endocortical surface', 'bone formation', 'patient characteristics including sex, age, body weight, and FN geometry']","[{'cui': 'C0450361', 'cui_str': '38'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patient'}, {'cui': 'C0040508', 'cui_str': 'Total replacement of hip'}, {'cui': 'C0029408', 'cui_str': 'Degenerative polyarthritis'}, {'cui': 'C0086418', 'cui_str': 'Homo sapiens'}, {'cui': 'C0015815', 'cui_str': 'Structure of neck of femur'}]","[{'cui': 'C0070093', 'cui_str': 'Teriparatide'}, {'cui': 'C0032042', 'cui_str': 'Sham Treatment'}, {'cui': 'C0039644', 'cui_str': 'Tetracycline'}, {'cui': 'C0205263', 'cui_str': 'Induced'}, {'cui': 'C0029433', 'cui_str': 'Bone formation'}]","[{'cui': 'C0441889', 'cui_str': 'Levels'}, {'cui': 'C0029433', 'cui_str': 'Bone formation'}, {'cui': 'C0005938', 'cui_str': 'Bone Mineral Density'}, {'cui': 'C0205148', 'cui_str': 'Surface'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patient'}, {'cui': 'C0332257', 'cui_str': 'Including'}, {'cui': 'C0009253', 'cui_str': 'Intercourse'}, {'cui': 'C0001779', 'cui_str': 'Age'}, {'cui': 'C0005910', 'cui_str': 'Body weight'}, {'cui': 'C0015815', 'cui_str': 'Structure of neck of femur'}, {'cui': 'C0449829', 'cui_str': 'Geometry'}]",38.0,0.027878,"Overall, bone formation was higher with TPTD versus placebo on the endocortical surface, but not the periosteal surface.","[{'ForeName': 'Amanda M', 'Initials': 'AM', 'LastName': 'Rooney', 'Affiliation': 'Nancy E. and Peter C.

Participants were randomly assigned to receive active TENS (n = 103), placebo TENS (n = 99), or no TENS (n = 99) and instructed to use it at home during activity 2 hours each day for 4 weeks. TENS was applied to the lumbar and cervicothoracic regions using a modulated frequency (2-125 Hz) at the highest tolerable intensity. Participants rated movement-evoked pain (primary outcome measure) and fatigue on an 11-point scale before and during application of TENS. The primary outcome measure and secondary patient-reported outcomes were assessed at baseline (time of randomization) and at 4 weeks.
RESULTS
After 4 weeks, a greater reduction in movement-evoked pain was reported in the active TENS group versus the placebo TENS group (group mean difference -1.0 [95% confidence interval -1.8, -0.2]; P = 0.008) and versus the no TENS group (group mean difference -1.8 [95% confidence interval -2.6, -1.0]; P < 0.0001). A reduction in movement-evoked fatigue was also reported in the active TENS group versus the placebo TENS group (group mean difference -1.4 [95% confidence interval -2.4, -0.4]; P = 0.001) and versus the no TENS group (group mean difference -1.9 [95% confidence interval -2.9, -0.9]; P = <0.0001). A greater percentage of the patients in the active TENS group reported improvement on the global impression of change compared to the placebo TENS group (70% versus 31%; P < 0.0001) and the no TENS group (9%; P < 0.0001). There were no TENS-related serious adverse events, and <5% of participants experienced minor adverse events from TENS.
CONCLUSION
Among women who had FM and were on a stable medication regimen, 4 weeks of active TENS use compared to placebo TENS or no TENS resulted in a significant improvement in movement-evoked pain and other clinical outcomes.

261,32334074,Bilateral nucleus basalis of Meynert deep brain stimulation for dementia with Lewy bodies: A randomised clinical trial.,"BACKGROUND
Dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB) is the second most common form of dementia. Current symptomatic treatment with medications remains inadequate. Deep brain stimulation of the nucleus basalis of Meynert (NBM DBS) has been proposed as a potential new treatment option in dementias.
OBJECTIVE
To assess the safety and tolerability of low frequency (20 Hz) NBM DBS in DLB patients and explore its potential effects on both clinical symptoms and functional connectivity in underlying cognitive networks.
METHODS
We conducted an exploratory randomised, double-blind, crossover trial of NBM DBS in six DLB patients recruited from two UK neuroscience centres. Patients were aged between 50 and 80 years, had mild-moderate dementia symptoms and were living with a carer-informant. Patients underwent image guided stereotactic implantation of bilateral DBS electrodes with the deepest contacts positioned in the Ch4i subsector of NBM. Patients were subsequently assigned to receive either active or sham stimulation for six weeks, followed by a two week washout period, then the opposite condition for six weeks. Safety and tolerability of both the surgery and stimulation were systematically evaluated throughout. Exploratory outcomes included the difference in scores on standardised measurements of cognitive, psychiatric and motor symptoms between the active and sham stimulation conditions, as well as differences in functional connectivity in discrete cognitive networks on resting state fMRI.
RESULTS
Surgery and stimulation were well tolerated by all six patients (five male, mean age 71.33 years). One serious adverse event occurred: one patient developed antibiotic-associated colitis, prolonging his hospital stay by two weeks. No consistent improvements were observed in exploratory clinical outcome measures, but the severity of neuropsychiatric symptoms reduced with NBM DBS in 3/5 patients. Active stimulation was associated with functional connectivity changes in both the default mode network and the frontoparietal network.
CONCLUSION
Low frequency NBM DBS can be safely conducted in DLB patients. This should encourage further exploration of the possible effects of stimulation on neuropsychiatric symptoms and corresponding changes in functional connectivity in cognitive networks.

262,32334141,Blood eosinophil count group shifts and kinetics in severe eosinophilic asthma.,"BACKGROUND
Blood eosinophil count (BEC) measurements are a noninvasive, relatively reliable surrogate marker for eosinophilic airway inflammation. Single measurements of peripheral BEC greater than or equal to 150 cells/μL predict the response to anti-eosinophil therapies for patients with characteristics of severe eosinophilic asthma.
OBJECTIVE
To describe how BECs shift over time for patients with severe, uncontrolled asthma receiving placebo in 2 large, randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trials of benralizumab (SIROCCO and CALIMA).
METHODS
Our analysis included all adult patients who were randomized to placebo in the SIROCCO and CALIMA phase III benralizumab studies. Patients were categorized into baseline BEC groups of less than 150 cells/μL, greater than or equal to 150 cells/μL but less than 300 cells/μL, and greater than or equal to 300 cells/μL. The timing of the initial shift from baseline to a different group was evaluated at weeks 4, 8, 24, and 40 and at the end of treatment. Baseline characteristics, including oral corticosteroid use, were described based on the presence or absence of a BEC group shift.
RESULTS
Of the 734 evaluable patients, 65% (n = 474) shifted BEC groups during the study, and most patients (86% [n = 410]) shifted by week 24. Patients who started in the less than 150 cells/μL group tended to shift groups earlier, with 59% shifting by week 4 compared with 38% to 55% for other groups in the same time frame. Patients who shifted BEC groups vs those who did not tend to have lower BECs, more oral corticosteroid use, and less incidence of nasal polyps or past polypectomy.
CONCLUSION
A single BEC measurement, particularly when low, may be inadequate to help establish a phenotype of severe eosinophilic asthma.

To study the influence of a multi-component nutrient dietary supplement on sperm parameters and pregnancy rates in idiopathic male infertility (IMI) with oligo-, astheno-, and teratozoospermia.
DESIGN
A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, prospective, parallel arms (1:1 allocation ratio), multi-center clinical trial.
SETTINGS
Eight urology/reproductive health clinical centers located in Ukraine.
PATIENTS
Eighty-three males aged 21-50 years with IMI and at least 1 of 3 abnormal values: total sperm concentration < 15 million/ml or/and spermatozoa progressive motility < 32% or/and forms with normal morphology < 4%.
INTERVENTION(S)
Patients were randomly allocated verum test dietary supplement (TDS) containing l-carnitine/acetyl-l-carnitine, l-arginine, glutathione, co-enzyme Q10, zinc, vitamin B 9 , vitamin B 12 , selenium, or placebo 1 time daily for 6 months.
MAIN OUTCOME(S)
The primary outcome measure was the percentage of normal spermiograms (concentration ≥ 15 million/ml and ≥ 32% of spermatozoa with progressive motility and ≥ 4% of normal forms) at month 0, 2, and 4. The percentage of pregnancies served the secondary outcome endpoint. Differences between the groups were assessed in z-test for proportions.
RESULTS
All males finished the study. At month 4, 29/42 (69.0%) males in the verum and 9/41 (22.0%) had normal spermiograms (P < .001). The percentage of spontaneous pregnancies in the verum group was greater than in the placebo group (10/42, 23.8% vs. 2/41, 4.9%, respectively, P = .017). There were no reportable supplement-associated adverse events.
CONCLUSION

264,31096264,Influence of Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol on long-term neural correlates of threat extinction memory retention in humans.,"The neural mechanisms and durability of Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) impact on threat processing in humans are not fully understood. Herein, we used functional MRI and psychophysiological tools to examine the influence of THC on the mechanisms of conditioned threat extinction learning, and the effects of THC on extinction memory retention when assessed 1 day and 1 week from learning. Healthy participants underwent threat conditioning on day 1. On day 2, participants were randomized to take one pill of THC or placebo (PBO) 2-h before threat extinction learning. Extinction memory retention was assessed 1 day and 1 week after extinction learning. We found that THC administration increased amygdala and ventromedial prefrontal cortex (vmPFC) activation during early extinction learning with no significant impact on skin conductance responses (SCR). When extinction memory retention was tested 24 h after learning, the THC group exhibited lower SCRs to the extinguished cue with no significant extinction-induced activations within the extinction network. When extinction memory retention was tested 1 week after learning, the THC group exhibited significantly decreased responses to the extinguished cues within the vmPFC and amygdala, but significantly increased functional coupling between the vmPFC, hippocampus, and dorsal anterior cingulate cortex during this extinction retention test. Our results are the first to report a long-term impact of one dose of THC on the functional activation of the threat extinction network and unveil a significant change in functional connectivity emerging after a week from engagement.

265,31353857,Acoustic enhancement of sleep slow oscillations in mild cognitive impairment.,"OBJECTIVE
Slow-wave activity (SWA) during sleep is reduced in people with amnestic mild cognitive impairment (aMCI) and is related to sleep-dependent memory consolidation. Acoustic stimulation of slow oscillations has proven effective in enhancing SWA and memory in younger and older adults. In this study we aimed to determine whether acoustic stimulation during sleep boosts SWA and improves memory performance in people with aMCI.
METHODS
Nine adults with aMCI (72 ± 8.7 years) completed one night of acoustic stimulation (stim) and one night of sham stimulation (sham) in a blinded, randomized crossover study. Acoustic stimuli were delivered phase-locked to the upstate of the endogenous sleep slow-waves. Participants completed a declarative recall task with 44 word-pairs before and after sleep.
RESULTS
During intervals of acoustic stimulation, SWA increased by >10% over sham intervals (P < 0.01), but memory recall increased in only five of the nine patients. The increase in SWA with stimulation was associated with improved morning word recall (r = 0.78, P = 0.012).
INTERPRETATION
Acoustic stimulation delivered during slow-wave sleep over one night was effective for enhancing SWA in individuals with aMCI. Given established relationships between SWA and memory, a larger or more prolonged enhancement may be needed to consistently improve memory in aMCI.",2019,"The increase in SWA with stimulation was associated with improved morning word recall (r = 0.78, P = 0.012).

266,32334292,The impact of fascia iliaca compartment block on chronic postsurgical pain in patients undergoing hip fracture repair.,"STUDY OBJECTIVE
Chronic postsurgical pain (CPSP), i.e. pain persisting >3 months, may appear after any type of surgery. There is a paucity of literature addressing CPSP development after hip fracture repair and the impact of any analgesic intervention on the development of CPSP in patients after hip fracture surgery. This study is the first aiming to examine the impact of ultrasound-guided fascia iliaca compartment block (USG FICB) on the development of CPSP after hip fracture repair.
DESIGN
Prospective randomized study.
SETTING
Operating room.
PATIENTS
182 patients scheduled for hip fracture surgery.
INTERVENTIONS
Patients were randomized to receive a USG FICB (FICB group) or a sham saline injection (sham FICB group), twenty minutes before positioning for spinal anesthesia.
MEASUREMENTS
The hip - related characteristic pain intensity (CPI) at 3- months post-surgery was the primary outcome measure. Presence and severity of hip-related pain at 3- and 6-months post-surgery, numeric rating pain scale (NRS) scores at 6, 24, 36, 48 postoperative hours, total 24-hour tramadol PCA administration and timing of the first tramadol dose, were documented as well.
MAIN RESULTS
FICB group presented with lower CPI scores 3- months postoperatively (p < 0.01), as well as lower percentage of patients with high-grade CPSP, 3 and 6 months postoperatively (p < 0.001). FICB group also showed significantly lower NRS scores in all instances, lower total 24 - hour tramadol consumption and higher mean time to first tramadol dose (p < 0.05). The overall sample of 182 patients reported a considerably high incidence of hip -related CPSP (60% at 3 months, 45% at 6 months).
CONCLUSIONS
USG FICB in the perioperative setting may reduce the incidence, intensity and severity of CPSP at 3 and 6 months after hip fracture surgery, providing safe and effective postoperative analgesia.",2020,"FICB group also showed significantly lower NRS scores in all instances, lower total 24 - hour tramadol consumption and higher mean time to first tramadol dose (p < 0.05).","['patients undergoing hip fracture repair', 'patients after hip fracture surgery', '182 patients reported a considerably high incidence of hip -related', '182 patients scheduled for hip fracture surgery']","['fascia iliaca compartment block', 'ultrasound-guided fascia iliaca compartment block (USG FICB', 'USG FICB (FICB group) or a sham saline injection', 'FICB']","['CPI scores', 'NRS scores', 'CPSP', 'hip - related characteristic pain intensity (CPI', 'numeric rating pain scale (NRS) scores', 'incidence, intensity and severity of CPSP', 'chronic postsurgical pain', 'Presence and severity of hip-related pain', 'total 24-hour tramadol PCA administration and timing of the first tramadol dose']","[{'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patient'}, {'cui': 'C0019557', 'cui_str': 'Hip fracture'}, {'cui': 'C0043240', 'cui_str': 'Tissue repair'}, {'cui': 'C0038895', 'cui_str': 'operative procedures'}, {'cui': 'C0684224', 'cui_str': 'Report'}, {'cui': 'C0205250', 'cui_str': 'High'}, {'cui': 'C0021149', 'cui_str': 'Incidence'}, {'cui': 'C0019552', 'cui_str': 'Bone structure of hip'}, {'cui': 'C0030703', 'cui_str': 'Patient Schedules'}]","[{'cui': 'C0225261', 'cui_str': 'Iliac fascia structure'}, {'cui': 'C0028778', 'cui_str': 'Obstruction'}, {'cui': 'C0041618', 'cui_str': 'Ultrasonography'}, {'cui': 'C0181090', 'cui_str': 'Guide'}, {'cui': 'C0439745', 'cui_str': 'Grouped'}, {'cui': 'C0073980', 'cui_str': 'salicylhydroxamic acid'}, {'cui': 'C0036082', 'cui_str': 'Sodium chloride solution'}, {'cui': 'C0021485', 'cui_str': 'Injection of therapeutic agent'}]","[{'cui': 'C0246008', 'cui_str': 'CPI(1)'}, {'cui': 'C0449820', 'cui_str': 'Score'}, {'cui': 'C0205191', 'cui_str': 'Chronic'}, {'cui': 'C0030193', 'cui_str': 'Pain'}, {'cui': 'C0019552', 'cui_str': 'Bone structure of hip'}, {'cui': 'C1320357', 'cui_str': 'Pain intensity'}, {'cui': 'C0237753', 'cui_str': 'Number'}, {'cui': 'C1504479', 'cui_str': 'Pain scale'}, {'cui': 'C0021149', 'cui_str': 'Incidence'}, {'cui': 'C0522510', 'cui_str': 'With intensity'}, {'cui': 'C0439793', 'cui_str': 'Severities'}, {'cui': 'C0150312', 'cui_str': 'Present'}, {'cui': 'C0439810', 'cui_str': 'Total'}, {'cui': 'C0439584', 'cui_str': '24 hours'}, {'cui': 'C0040610', 'cui_str': 'Tramadol'}, {'cui': 'C0030131', 'cui_str': 'p-Chloramphetamine'}, {'cui': 'C0001554', 'cui_str': 'Administration'}, {'cui': 'C0449243', 'cui_str': 'Timing'}, {'cui': 'C0178602', 'cui_str': 'Dosage'}]",182.0,0.129944,"FICB group also showed significantly lower NRS scores in all instances, lower total 24 - hour tramadol consumption and higher mean time to first tramadol dose (p < 0.05).","[{'ForeName': 'Maria', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Diakomi', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Anesthesiology, Asklepieion Hospital of Voula, Athens, Greece.'}, {'ForeName': 'Marianna', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Papaioannou', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Anesthesiology, Asklepieion Hospital of Voula, Athens, Greece.'}, {'ForeName': 'George', 'Initials': 'G', 'LastName': 'Georgoudis', 'Affiliation': 'Physiotherapy Department, University of West Attica, Athens, Greece.'}, {'ForeName': 'Erifili', 'Initials': 'E', 'LastName': 'Argyra', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Anesthesiology, Aretaieion University Hospital, Athens, Greece.'}, {'ForeName': 'Argyro', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Mela', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Anesthesiology, Asklepieion Hospital of Voula, Athens, Greece.'}, {'ForeName': 'Ioanna', 'Initials': 'I', 'LastName': 'Siafaka', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Anesthesiology, Aretaieion University Hospital, Athens, Greece.'}, {'ForeName': 'Alexandros', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Makris', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Anesthesiology, Asklepieion Hospital of Voula, Athens, Greece.

267,32062566,Alleviation of ADHD symptoms by non-invasive right prefrontal stimulation is correlated with EEG activity.,"Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a prevalent disorder with effective pharmacological treatment that benefits most patients. However, about one-third fail to benefit while others search non-pharmacological alternatives, and for those options are scarce. One alternative treatment option is to alter abnormal right prefrontal cortex (rPFC) activity, given that rPFC abnormality has been repeatedly implicated in ADHD neurophathology. Here, we evaluated whether targeting the rPFC with multiple sessions of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS), which can modulate neuronal excitability, activity, and plasticity in a non-invasive manner, will affect clinical symptoms in adults suffering from ADHD. Concomitantly, we used EEG to characterize electrophysiological alterations induced by treatment and to search for correlation between baseline neuronal activity and clinical response. Forty-three drug free adults with ADHD were randomized to receive either Real, Active Control, or Sham treatment (13 females, age ranging 21-46; n = 15, 14, 14, respectively), and underwent three weeks of daily high-frequency (18 Hz) stimulation sessions. We found that Real treatment was safe and resulted in significant improvement of symptoms (η 2 p = 0.34; Cohen's d (against Sham) = 0.96; Cohen's d (against AC) = 0.68; p = 0.00085). Furthermore, based on EEG recorded within the first treatment session we established a novel biomarker, composed of the Alpha and Low-gamma power, which highly correlated the magnitude of the clinical outcome (r = 0.92, p = 0.0001). Taken together, the results of this pilot study indicate safety and effectiveness of rTMS directed to the rPFC for treatment of adult ADHD patients. The biomarker is suggested to reflect the responsiveness of the cortex to this rTMS intervention. Following validation of the results in larger samples, this study may represent a step towards a non-pharmacological treatment for adults with ADHD using EEG-based selection of optimal candidates for treatment.",2020,We found that Real treatment was safe and resulted in significant improvement of symptoms (η 2 p = 0.34; Cohen's d (against Sham) = 0.96; Cohen's d (against AC) = 0.68; p = 0.00085).,"['Forty-three drug free adults with ADHD', 'adults suffering from ADHD', 'adult ADHD patients']","['Real, Active Control, or Sham treatment', 'repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS', 'rTMS']",['symptoms'],"[{'cui': 'C0450368', 'cui_str': '43 (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0013227', 'cui_str': 'Pharmaceuticals'}, {'cui': 'C0001675', 'cui_str': 'Adult'}, {'cui': 'C1263846', 'cui_str': 'ADDH'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}]","[{'cui': 'C0205177', 'cui_str': 'Active (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C2587213', 'cui_str': 'Controlled (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0032042', 'cui_str': 'Sham Treatment'}, {'cui': 'C0872259', 'cui_str': 'Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation, Repetitive'}]","[{'cui': 'C0683368', 'cui_str': 'symptoms'}]",,0.0294365,We found that Real treatment was safe and resulted in significant improvement of symptoms (η 2 p = 0.34; Cohen's d (against Sham) = 0.96; Cohen's d (against AC) = 0.68; p = 0.00085).,"[{'ForeName': 'Uri', 'Initials': 'U', 'LastName': 'Alyagon', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Life Sciences and the Zlotowski Centre for Neuroscience,\xa0Ben-Gurion University of the Negev, Beer-Sheva, Israel.'}, {'ForeName': 'Hamutal', 'Initials': 'H', 'LastName': 'Shahar', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Life Sciences and the Zlotowski Centre for Neuroscience,\xa0Ben-Gurion University of the Negev, Beer-Sheva, Israel.'}, {'ForeName': 'Aviad', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Hadar', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Life Sciences and the Zlotowski Centre for Neuroscience,\xa0Ben-Gurion University of the Negev, Beer-Sheva, Israel.'}, {'ForeName': 'Noam', 'Initials': 'N', 'LastName': 'Barnea-Ygael', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Life Sciences and the Zlotowski Centre for Neuroscience,\xa0Ben-Gurion University of the Negev, Beer-Sheva, Israel.'}, {'ForeName': 'Avi', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Lazarovits', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Life Sciences and the Zlotowski Centre for Neuroscience,\xa0Ben-Gurion University of the Negev, Beer-Sheva, Israel.'}, {'ForeName': 'Hadar', 'Initials': 'H', 'LastName': 'Shalev', 'Affiliation': 'Psychiatry Department, Soroka Medical Center, Beer-Sheva, Israel.'}, {'ForeName': 'Abraham', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Zangen', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Life Sciences and the Zlotowski Centre for Neuroscience,\xa0Ben-Gurion University of the Negev, Beer-Sheva, Israel.

268,32179059,Oxytocin increases the social salience of the outgroup in potential threat contexts.,"A growing body of literature suggests that OT administration may affect not only prosocial outcomes, but also regulate adversarial responses in the context of intergroup relations. However, recent reports have challenged the view of a fixed role of OT in enhancing ingroup favoritism and outgroup derogation. Studying the potential effects of OT in modulating threat perception in a context characterized by racial miscegenation (Brazil) may thus afford additional clarification on the matter. In a double-blind, placebo-controlled study, White Brazilian participants completed a first-person shooter task to assess their responses towards potential threat from racial ingroup (White) or outgroup (Black) members. OT administration enhanced the social salience of the outgroup, by both increasing the rate at which participants refrained from shooting unarmed Black targets to levels similar to White targets, and by further increasing the rate of correct decisions to shoot armed Black targets (versus White armed targets). In summary, our results indicate that a single dose of OT may promote accurate behavioral responses to potential threat from members of a racial outgroup, thus offering support to the social salience hypothesis.",2020,"OT administration enhanced the social salience of the outgroup, by both increasing the rate at which participants refrained from shooting unarmed Black targets to levels similar to White targets, and by further increasing the rate of correct decisions to shoot armed Black targets (versus White armed targets).",['White Brazilian participants completed a firstperson shooter task to assess their responses towards potential threat from racial ingroup (White) or outgroup (Black) members'],"['OT', 'Oxytocin', 'placebo']",['social salience'],"[{'cui': 'C0043157', 'cui_str': 'Whites'}, {'cui': 'C0205197', 'cui_str': 'Complete (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C3875150', 'cui_str': 'Towards'}]","[{'cui': 'C0030095', 'cui_str': 'Oxytocin'}, {'cui': 'C1696465', 'cui_str': 'placebo'}]",[],,0.040038,"OT administration enhanced the social salience of the outgroup, by both increasing the rate at which participants refrained from shooting unarmed Black targets to levels similar to White targets, and by further increasing the rate of correct decisions to shoot armed Black targets (versus White armed targets).","[{'ForeName': 'Julia H', 'Initials': 'JH', 'LastName': 'Egito', 'Affiliation': 'Social and Cognitive Neuroscience Laboratory and Developmental Disorders Graduate Program, Center for Biological and Health Sciences, Mackenzie Presbyterian University, São Paulo, Brazil.'}, {'ForeName': 'Michael', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Nevat', 'Affiliation': 'The Integrated Brain and Behavior Research Center (IBBR) and Department of Psychology, University of Haifa, Haifa, 3498838, Israel.'}, {'ForeName': 'Simone G', 'Initials': 'SG', 'LastName': 'Shamay-Tsoory', 'Affiliation': 'The Integrated Brain and Behavior Research Center (IBBR) and Department of Psychology, University of Haifa, Haifa, 3498838, Israel.'}, {'ForeName': 'Ana Alexandra C', 'Initials': 'AAC', 'LastName': 'Osório', 'Affiliation': 'Social and Cognitive Neuroscience Laboratory and Developmental Disorders Graduate Program, Center for Biological and Health Sciences, Mackenzie Presbyterian University, São Paulo, Brazil.

269,31525334,Acupuncture vs Noninsertive Sham Acupuncture in Aging Patients with Degenerative Lumbar Spinal Stenosis: A Randomized Controlled Trial.,"BACKGROUND
Acupuncture is commonly used to treat degenerative lumbar spinal stenosis in Asian countries. However, rigorous data regarding the efficacy and safety of acupuncture for aging patients are currently lacking.
METHODS
Eighty patients older than 50 years were assigned randomly to the acupuncture group or the noninsertive sham acupuncture for 24 treatments over an 8-week period. Measurements were obtained at baseline and 4 and 8 weeks of treatment; and 3 and 6 months after completion of treatment. The primary outcome was a change in the 24-point Roland Morris Disability Questionnaire scores at the end of treatment. The secondary outcomes included disability, pain intensity, symptoms, and dysfunction.
RESULTS
At the end of treatment, mean changes in the Roland Morris Disability Questionnaire were -4.1 (95% CI, -4.9 to -3.3) in the acupuncture group and -1.5 (95% CI, -2.3 to -0.7) in the sham group, with a statistically significant between-group difference: -2.6 (95% CI, -3.7 to -1.4). Acupuncture was superior to sham acupuncture in reducing pain intensity (between-group difference: -2.9 [95% CI, -3.8 to -2.0] in leg and buttock pain, vs -2.3 [95% CI, -3.0 to -1.5] in back pain), symptoms and dysfunction (between-group difference: -0.9 [95% CI, -1.2 to -0.6] in symptom subscale, and -0.8 [95% CI, -1.1 to -0.5] in dysfunction subscale).

270,32327440,Development and validation of an early pregnancy risk score for the prediction of gestational diabetes mellitus in Chinese pregnant women.,"OBJECTIVE
To develop and validate a set of risk scores for the prediction of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) before the 15th gestational week using an established population-based prospective cohort.
METHODS
From October 2010 to August 2012, 19 331 eligible pregnant women were registered in the three-tiered antenatal care network in Tianjin, China, to receive their antenatal care and a two-step GDM screening. The whole dataset was randomly divided into a training dataset (for development of the risk score) and a test dataset (for validation of performance of the risk score). Logistic regression was performed to obtain coefficients of selected predictors for GDM in the training dataset. Calibration was estimated using Hosmer-Lemeshow test, while discrimination was checked using area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) in the test dataset.
RESULTS
In the training dataset (total=12 887, GDM=979 or 7.6%), two risk scores were developed, one only including predictors collected at the first antenatal care visit for early prediction of GDM, like maternal age, body mass index, height, family history of diabetes, systolic blood pressure, and alanine aminotransferase; and the other also including predictors collected during pregnancy, that is, at the time of GDM screening, like physical activity, sitting time at home, passive smoking, and weight gain, for maximum performance. In the test dataset (total=6444, GDM=506 or 7.9%), the calibrations of both risk scores were acceptable (both p for Hosmer-Lemeshow test >0.25). The AUCs of the first and second risk scores were 0.710 (95% CI: 0.680 to 0.741) and 0.712 (95% CI: 0.682 to 0.743), respectively (p for difference: 0.9273).
CONCLUSION
Both developed risk scores had adequate performance for the prediction of GDM in Chinese pregnant women in Tianjin, China. Further validations are needed to evaluate their performance in other populations and using different methods to identify GDM cases.",2020,"The AUCs of the first and second risk scores were 0.710 (95% CI: 0.680 to 0.741) and 0.712 (95% CI: 0.682 to 0.743), respectively (p for difference: 0.9273).

271,32145674,"A double-blind, randomized, sham-controlled study of cranial electrotherapy stimulation as an add-on treatment for tic disorders in children and adolescents.","AIM
The aim of this study was to determine the efficacy and safety of cranial electrotherapy stimulation (CES) as an add-on treatment for TD.
METHODS
A randomized, double-blind, sham-controlled trial was conducted at an outpatient, single-center academic setting. A total of 62 patients aged 6-17 years with TD and lack of clinical response to 4 weeks' pharmacotherapy were enrolled. Patients were divided randomly into 2 groups and given 4 weeks' treatment, including 30 min sessions of active CES (500 μA-2 mA) or sham CES (lower than 100 μA) per day for 40 d on weekdays. Change in Yale Global Tic Severity Scale (YGTSS), Clinical Global Impression-severity of illness-severity (CGI-S) and Hamilton Anxiety Scale-14 items (HAMA-14) were performed at baseline, week 2, week 4. Adverse events (AEs) were also evaluated.
RESULTS
53 patients (34 males and 9 females) completed the trial, including 29 in the active CES group and 24 in the sham CES group. Both groups showed clinical improvement in tic severities compared to baseline respectively at week 4. Participants receiving active CES showed a reduction of 31.66 % in YGTSS score, compared with 23.96 % in participants in sham CES group, resulting in no significant difference between the two groups (t = 1.54, p = 0.13).

272,31989459,"Prevention of Pain During Screening for Retinopathy of Prematurity: A Randomized Control Trial Comparing Breast Milk, 10% Dextrose and Sterile Water.","OBJECTIVES
To compare the efficacy of orally administered 10% dextrose, breast milk and sterile water on pain prevention during screening examination for Retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) in preterm neonates as measured by Premature infant pain profile (PIPP).
METHODS
A three-limbed double-blinded randomized control trial was conducted in a Level 3 neonatal intensive care unit. Forty five preterm neonates undergoing ROP screening were included. Eligible babies were randomly assigned to one of the three groups that orally received either expressed breast milk (n = 14), 10% dextrose solution (n = 14) or sterile water (n = 17), one minute before eye examination.

273,31012044,Three-Dimensional Visualization Technology Used in Pancreatic Surgery: a Valuable Tool for Surgical Trainees.,"PURPOSE
Three-dimensional (3D) visualization technology has been increasingly applied in patient-specific surgeries, but its value in residency training has not been determined. This study aimed to explore the value of 3D visualized pancreatic model in tumor evaluation and surgery planning for surgical trainees.
METHODS
Eighty-eight surgical residents were randomized into two groups (computed tomography (CT) group and 3D group). Both groups began with a training on evaluating the resectability of pancreatic tumor, which was based on the NCCN clinical practice guidelines and practiced on a sample case. Then, they respectively learned the sample case either on 3D reconstruction visualization tables or CT images. Finally, both groups completed a same test consisting of two pancreatic cases with CT images as well as questionnaires.
RESULTS
No differences were found in scores of the anatomy and diagnosis part, while mean scores for questions, associated with tumor staging and surgery planning, were consistently and significantly higher in the 3D group.

274,31042696,Effects of MDMA on attention to positive social cues and pleasantness of affective touch.,"The psychostimulant drug ±3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA) reportedly produces distinctive feelings of empathy and closeness with others. MDMA increases social behavior in animal models and has shown promise in psychiatric disorders, such as autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). How it produces these prosocial effects is not known. This behavioral and psychophysiological study examined the effects of MDMA, compared with the prototypical stimulant methamphetamine (MA), on two measures of social behavior in healthy young adults: (i) responses to socially relevant, ""affective"" touch, and (ii) visual attention to emotional faces. Men and women (N = 36) attended four sessions in which they received MDMA (0.75 or 1.5 mg/kg), MA (20 mg), or a placebo in randomized order under double-blind conditions. Responses to experienced and observed affective touch (i.e., being touched or watching others being touched) were assessed using facial electromyography (EMG), a proxy of affective state. Responses to emotional faces were assessed using electrooculography (EOG) in a measure of attentional bias. Subjective ratings were also included. We hypothesized that MDMA, but not MA, would enhance the ratings of pleasantness and psychophysiological responses to affective touch and increase attentional bias toward positive facial expressions. Consistent with this, we found that MDMA, but not MA, selectively enhanced ratings of pleasantness of experienced affective touch. Neither drug altered the ratings of pleasantness of observed touch. On the EOG measure of attentional bias, MDMA, but not MA, increased attention toward happy faces. These results provide new evidence that MDMA can enhance the experience of positive social interactions; in this case, pleasantness of physical touch and attentional bias toward positive facial expressions. The findings are consistent with evidence that the prosocial effects are unique to MDMA relative to another stimulant. Understanding the behavioral and neurobiological processes underlying the distinctive social effects of MDMA is a key step to developing the drug for psychiatric disorders.",2019,"On the EOG measure of attentional bias, MDMA, but not MA, increased attention toward happy faces.","['Men and women (N\u2009=\u200936) attended four sessions in which they received', 'healthy young adults']","['placebo', 'psychostimulant drug ±3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA', 'MDMA', 'electrooculography (EOG', 'MA', 'prototypical stimulant methamphetamine (MA']","['ratings of pleasantness and psychophysiological responses to affective touch and increase attentional bias toward positive facial expressions', 'positive social cues and pleasantness of affective touch', 'Subjective ratings', 'ratings of pleasantness of observed touch', 'attention toward happy faces']","[{'cui': 'C0086418', 'cui_str': 'Humans'}, {'cui': 'C0043210', 'cui_str': 'Girls'}, {'cui': 'C1456498', 'cui_str': 'Attended'}, {'cui': 'C0238598', 'cui_str': 'Young Adult'}]","[{'cui': 'C1696465', 'cui_str': 'placebo'}, {'cui': 'C0304403', 'cui_str': 'Psychostimulant'}, {'cui': 'C0013227', 'cui_str': 'Pharmaceuticals'}, {'cui': 'C0115471', 'cui_str': 'MDMA'}, {'cui': 'C0013854', 'cui_str': 'EOG'}, {'cui': 'C0242977', 'cui_str': 'Stimulants, Historical'}, {'cui': 'C0025611', 'cui_str': 'metamfetamine'}]","[{'cui': 'C0152054', 'cui_str': 'Therapeutic Touch'}, {'cui': 'C0205217', 'cui_str': 'Increased (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C4277667', 'cui_str': 'Attentional Bias'}, {'cui': 'C1446409', 'cui_str': 'Positive (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0015457', 'cui_str': 'Facial Expression'}, {'cui': 'C0010439', 'cui_str': 'Cues'}, {'cui': 'C0439655', 'cui_str': 'Subjective observation'}, {'cui': 'C0004268', 'cui_str': 'Attention'}, {'cui': 'C0018592', 'cui_str': 'Happinesses'}, {'cui': 'C0538263', 'cui_str': 'fatty acid 2-chloroethyl ester synthase'}]",,0.0389876,"On the EOG measure of attentional bias, MDMA, but not MA, increased attention toward happy faces.","[{'ForeName': 'Anya K', 'Initials': 'AK', 'LastName': 'Bershad', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Neuroscience, University of Chicago, Chicago, IL, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Leah M', 'Initials': 'LM', 'LastName': 'Mayo', 'Affiliation': 'Center for Social and Affective Neuroscience, Department of Clinical and Experimental Medicine, Linköping University, Linköping, Sweden.'}, {'ForeName': 'Kathryne', 'Initials': 'K', 'LastName': 'Van Hedger', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Clinical Neurological Sciences, University of Western Ontario, London, ON, UK.'}, {'ForeName': 'Francis', 'Initials': 'F', 'LastName': 'McGlone', 'Affiliation': 'School of Natural Sciences and Psychology, Liverpool John Moores University, Liverpool, UK.'}, {'ForeName': 'Susannah C', 'Initials': 'SC', 'LastName': 'Walker', 'Affiliation': 'School of Natural Sciences and Psychology, Liverpool John Moores University, Liverpool, UK.'}, {'ForeName': 'Harriet', 'Initials': 'H', 'LastName': 'de Wit', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Neuroscience, University of Chicago, Chicago, IL, USA. hdew@uchicago.edu.'}]",Neuropsychopharmacology : official publication of the American College of Neuropsychopharmacology,['10.1038/s41386-019-0402-z']
275,32327444,High or low glycemic index (GI) meals at dinner results in greater postprandial glycemia compared with breakfast: a randomized controlled trial.,"INTRODUCTION
While circadian control of glucose metabolism is well known, how glycemic index (GI) of carbohydrate-rich meals interacts with time of consumption (breakfast or dinner) to influence postprandial (PP) glucose homeostasis is less well established. The objective of the study was to assess markers of PP glucose homeostasis following high or low GI test meals (TM) consumed either at breakfast or at dinner and following consumption of the subsequent standardized meals (SSM).
RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS
Randomized crossover trial in 34 healthy, Chinese, elderly volunteers (mean±SEM age, 56.8±0.83 years), who completed 4 separate study sessions per-protocol, consisting of a high-GI breakfast, low-GI breakfast, high-GI dinner and low-GI dinner TM, followed by a SSM at the subsequent eating occasion. Blood samples were taken for 3 hours after each TM and SSM for glucose, insulin, glucagon, free fatty acids (FFA) and triglycerides (TG) measurements.
RESULTS
Consuming TM at dinner produced greater PP glycemia than breakfast both after TM and SSM (both p<0.0001), irrespective of GI. High-GI TM also produced greater PP glycemia than low-GI TM, both after TM and SSM (both p<0.01), irrespective of time of consumption. No interaction between GI and time were found on PP glycemia, indicating parallel, but independent effects. Combined total areas under the curve of TM+SSM for PP glucose (p<0.0001), PP TG (p<0.0001) and PP FFA (p<0.0001) were all greater when TM taken during dinner compared with breakfast.
CONCLUSIONS
Carbohydrate-rich meals consumed at dinner leads to significantly worse PP glucose homeostasis than when consumed at breakfast, on top of the independent GI effect of the meal. This may have implications to future type 2 diabetes risk. Moreover, future studies investigating GI/glycemic load (GL) and disease risk associations should factor in timing of GL consumption as an additional variable.

276,32327474,Reducing medicine-induced deterioration and adverse reactions (ReMInDAR) trial: study protocol for a randomised controlled trial in residential aged-care facilities assessing frailty as the primary outcome.,"INTRODUCTION
Many medicines have adverse effects which are difficult to detect and frequently go unrecognised. Pharmacist monitoring of changes in signs and symptoms of these adverse effects, which we describe as medicine-induced deterioration, may reduce the risk of developing frailty. The aim of this trial is to determine the effectiveness of a 12-month pharmacist service compared with usual care in reducing medicine-induced deterioration, frailty and adverse reactions in older people living in aged-care facilities in Australia.
METHODS AND ANALYSIS
The reducing medicine-induced deterioration and adverse reactions trial is a multicentre, open-label randomised controlled trial. Participants will be recruited from 39 facilities in South Australia and Tasmania. Residents will be included if they are using four or more medicines at the time of recruitment, or taking more than one medicine with anticholinergic or sedative properties. The intervention group will receive a pharmacist assessment which occurs every 8 weeks. The pharmacists will liaise with the participants' general practitioners when medicine-induced deterioration is evident or adverse events are considered serious. The primary outcome is a reduction in medicine-induced deterioration from baseline to 6 and 12 months, as measured by change in frailty index. The secondary outcomes are changes in cognition scores, 24-hour movement behaviour, grip strength, weight, percentage robust, pre-frail and frail classification, rate of adverse medicine events, health-related quality of life and health resource use. The statistical analysis will use mixed-models adjusted for baseline to account for repeated outcome measures. A health economic evaluation will be conducted following trial completion using data collected during the trial.
ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION
Ethics approvals have been obtained from the Human Research Ethics Committee of University of South Australia (ID:0000036440) and University of Tasmania (ID:H0017022). A copy of the final report will be provided to the Australian Government Department of Health.

277,30885692,Adeno-associated virus vectored immunoprophylaxis to prevent HIV in healthy adults: a phase 1 randomised controlled trial.,"BACKGROUND
A preventive vaccine for HIV is a crucial public health need; adeno-associated virus (AAV)-mediated antibody gene delivery could be an alternative to immunisation to induce sustained expression of neutralising antibodies to prevent HIV. We assessed safety and tolerability of rAAV1-PG9DP, a recombinant AAV1 vector encoding the gene for PG9, a broadly neutralising antibody against HIV.
METHODS
This first-in-human, proof-of-concept, double-blind, phase 1, randomised, placebo-controlled, dose-escalation trial was done at one clinical research centre in the UK. Healthy men aged 18-45 years without HIV infection were randomly assigned to receive intramuscular injection with rAAV1-PG9DP or placebo in the deltoid or quadriceps in one of four dose-escalating cohorts (group A, 4 × 10 12 vector genomes; group B, 4 × 10 13 vector genomes; group C, 8 × 10 13 vector genomes; and group D, 1·2 × 10 14 vector genomes). Volunteers were followed up for 48 weeks. The primary objective was to assess safety and tolerability. A secondary objective was to assess PG9 expression in serum and related HIV neutralisation activity. All volunteers were included in primary and safety analyses. The trial is complete and is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, number NCT01937455.
FINDINGS
Between Jan 30, 2014, and Feb 28, 2017, 111 volunteers were screened for eligibility. 21 volunteers were eligible and provided consent, and all 21 completed 48 weeks of follow-up. Reactogenicity was generally mild or moderate and resolved without intervention. No probably or definitely related adverse events or serious adverse events were recorded. We detected PG9 by HIV neutralisation in the serum of four volunteers, and by RT-PCR in muscle biopsy samples from four volunteers. We did not detect PG9 by ELISA in serum. PG9 anti-drug antibody was present in ten volunteers in the higher dose groups. Both anti-AAV1 antibodies and AAV1-specific T-cell responses were detected.
INTERPRETATION

278,31658115,Fresh Frozen Plasma versus Crystalloid Priming of Cardiopulmonary Bypass Circuit in Pediatric Surgery: A Randomized Clinical Trial.,"BACKGROUND
In congenital cardiac surgery, priming cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) with fresh frozen plasma (FFP) is performed to prevent coagulation abnormalities. The hypothesis was that CPB priming with crystalloids would be different compared with FFP in terms of bleeding and/or need for blood product transfusion.
METHODS
In this parallel-arm double-blinded study, patients weighing between 7 and 15 kg were randomly assigned to a CPB priming with 15 ml · kg PlasmaLyte or 15 ml · kg FFP in addition to a predefined amount of packed red blood cells used in all patients. The decision to transfuse was clinical and guided by point-of-care tests. The primary endpoints included postoperative bleeding tracked by chest tubes, number of patients transfused with any additional blood products, and the total number of additional blood products administered intra- and postoperatively. The postoperative period included the first 6 h after intensive care unit arrival.
RESULTS
Respectively, 30 and 29 patients in the FFP and in the crystalloid group were analyzed in an intention-to-treat basis. Median postoperative blood loss was 7.1 ml · kg (5.1, 9.4) in the FFP group and 5.7 ml · kg (3.8, 8.5) in the crystalloid group (P = 0.219); difference (95% CI): 1.2 (-0.7 to 3.2). The proportion of patients additionally transfused was 26.7% (8 of 30) and 37.9% (11 of 29) in the FFP and the crystalloid groups, respectively (P = 0.355; odds ratio [95% CI], 1.7 [0.6 to 5.1]). The median number of any blood products transfused in addition to priming was 0 (0, 1) and 0 (0, 2) in the FFP and crystalloid groups, respectively (P = 0.254; difference [95% CI], 0 [0 to 0]). There were no study-related adverse events.

279,32304734,Cetirizine inhibits gender-specific blood cell dynamics upon allergen contact in allergic rhinitis.,"IgE-mediated inflammatory responses upon allergen contact in allergic rhinitis (AR) are associated with rapid alterations of circulating blood cell numbers detectable in a complete blood count (CBC). Aim of this study was to evaluate whether intake of antihistamines may modulate allergen-induced CBC dynamics in male and female patients. A total of N = 112 specific allergen challenges were performed in otherwise healthy AR subjects. Seventy-two (n = 72) subjects received placebo and forty (n = 40) received cetirizine (H1-receptor antagonist) per os prior to allergen exposure in a randomized, double-blind trial at the Vienna Challenge Chamber (VCC); a subgroup of twenty-five (n = 25) subjects received cetirizine and placebo on different study days (parallel group). Blood samples and symptom scores were taken at baseline and immediately after 6 h of airway challenge simulating ambient allergen contact. Female sex was associated with a pronounced circulating monocyte increase (p < .01) and male sex with an eosinophil decrease (p < .05) in the placebo group, but not in cetirizine treated subjects. The significant increase in segmented neutrophils (p < .001) and decrease in circulating erythrocytes (p < .01) upon allergen challenge was less prominent after cetirizine intake in both sexes. A more prominent thrombocyte increase in female subjects (p < .05) was noted upon allergen exposure, regardless of prior cetirizine intake. Cetirizine inhibited the mobilization of neutrophils, lymphocytes and decline in erythrocyte numbers, but did not affect thrombocyte increase upon allergen challenge. It further diminished gender-specific blood cell dynamics. Overall, as reflected in a simple CBC, cetirizine critically diminished immediate and late innate immune responses subsequent to allergen exposure.",2020,The significant increase in segmented neutrophils (p < .001) and decrease in circulating erythrocytes (p < .01) upon allergen challenge was less prominent after cetirizine intake in both sexes.,"['allergic rhinitis', 'Seventy-two (n\u202f=\u202f72) subjects received', 'allergic rhinitis (AR', 'male and female patients', 'otherwise healthy AR subjects']","['cetirizine (H1-receptor antagonist) per os prior to allergen exposure', 'cetirizine and placebo', 'Cetirizine', 'antihistamines', 'placebo', 'cetirizine']","['circulating erythrocytes', 'segmented neutrophils', 'Blood samples and symptom scores', 'mobilization of neutrophils, lymphocytes and decline in erythrocyte numbers', 'circulating monocyte increase']","[{'cui': 'C2607914', 'cui_str': 'Allergic rhinitis'}, {'cui': 'C4319632', 'cui_str': '72'}, {'cui': 'C0086582', 'cui_str': 'Male'}, {'cui': 'C0043210', 'cui_str': 'Woman'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patient'}]","[{'cui': 'C0055147', 'cui_str': 'Cetirizine'}, {'cui': 'C0034814', 'cui_str': 'Histamine H1 receptor'}, {'cui': 'C0231491', 'cui_str': 'Antagonist muscle action'}, {'cui': 'C1527415', 'cui_str': 'Oral route'}, {'cui': 'C0332152', 'cui_str': 'Before'}, {'cui': 'C0002092', 'cui_str': 'Allergen'}, {'cui': 'C0274281', 'cui_str': 'Effect of exposure to external cause'}, {'cui': 'C0032042', 'cui_str': 'Sham Treatment'}, {'cui': 'C0019590', 'cui_str': 'Histamine receptor antagonist'}]","[{'cui': 'C0175630', 'cui_str': 'Circulating'}, {'cui': 'C0014772', 'cui_str': 'Red blood cell count'}, {'cui': 'C0229640', 'cui_str': 'Segmented neutrophil'}, {'cui': 'C0178913', 'cui_str': 'Blood specimen'}, {'cui': 'C0683368', 'cui_str': 'symptoms'}, {'cui': 'C0449820', 'cui_str': 'Score'}, {'cui': 'C0185112', 'cui_str': 'Mobilization'}, {'cui': 'C0027950', 'cui_str': 'Polymorphonuclear leukocyte'}, {'cui': 'C0024264', 'cui_str': 'Lymphocyte'}, {'cui': 'C0553698', 'cui_str': 'Monocyte count increased'}]",72.0,0.125116,The significant increase in segmented neutrophils (p < .001) and decrease in circulating erythrocytes (p < .01) upon allergen challenge was less prominent after cetirizine intake in both sexes.,"[{'ForeName': 'G', 'Initials': 'G', 'LastName': 'Jordakieva', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Physical Medicine, Rehabilitation and Occupational Medicine, Medical University of Vienna, Austria.

280,32329089,Daytime masticatory muscle electromyography biofeedback regulates the phasic component of sleep bruxism.,"BACKGROUND
Electromyography (EMG) biofeedback (BF) training is potentially an effective cognitive-behavioural approach to regulate bruxism.
OBJECTIVE
This study examined sleep bruxism regulation by daytime clenching control using a single-channel auditory EMG BF device.
METHODS
Seventeen male subjects (mean age, 24.4 ± 3.1 years; mean ± SD) with self-reported awake/sleep bruxism were recruited and divided into a BF (n = 10) and a control (CO) group (n = 7). All subjects underwent four EMG recording sessions during both daytime and sleep over 3 weeks. During the daytime, in week 2, the BF group received feedback alert signals when excessive EMG activity with certain burst duration was detected while the subjects performed regular daily activities. The CO group underwent EMG recording sessions without receiving any alerts of parafunctional activity. The number of phasic burst events during sleep was compared between the BF and CO groups.
RESULTS
While the number of phasic EMG events was not significantly different between the BF and CO groups at baseline, significantly smaller phasic events were observed in the BF compared to the CO group at the follow-up session (week 3) (P = .006, Tukey's HSD). Since daytime BF training is aimed at raising awareness of awake bruxism, it does not interrupt the sleep sequence or involve associated side effects.
CONCLUSION
The present results suggest that EMG BF targeting for tonic EMG events during the daytime can be an effective method to regulate phasic EMG events during sleep.",2020,"RESULTS

281,31601541,"Safety and immunogenicity of a multivalent HIV vaccine comprising envelope protein with either DNA or NYVAC vectors (HVTN 096): a phase 1b, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial.","BACKGROUND
Up to now, immunisation regimens that have been assessed for development of HIV vaccines have included purified envelope (Env) protein among the boosting components of the regimen. We postulated that co-administration of Env protein with either a DNA or NYVAC vector during priming would result in early generation of antibody responses to the Env V1/V2 region, which are important markers for effective protection against infection. We aimed to assess the safety and immunogenicity of a multivalent HIV vaccine including either DNA or NYVAC vectors alone or in combination with Env glycoprotein (gp120) followed by a co-delivered NYVAC and Env protein boost.
METHODS
We did a single-centre, double-blind, placebo-controlled phase 1b trial at the Centre Hospitalier Universitaire Vaudois (Lausanne, Switzerland). We included healthy volunteers aged 18-50 years who were at low risk of HIV infection. We randomly allocated participants using computer-generated random numbers to one of four vaccination schedules or placebo (4:1), and within these schedules participants were allocated either active treatment (T1, T2, T3, and T4) or placebo (C1, C2, C3, and C4). T1 consisted of two doses of NYVAC vector followed by two doses of NYVAC vector and gp120 Env protein; T2 comprised four doses of NYVAC vector and gp120 Env protein; T3 was two doses of DNA vector followed by two doses of NYVAC vector and gp120 Env protein; and T4 was two doses of DNA vector and gp120 Env protein followed by two doses of NYVAC vector and gp120 Env protein. Placebo injections were matched to the corresponding active treatment group. Doses were administered by injection at months 0, 1, 3, and 6. Primary outcomes were safety and immunogenicity of the vaccine schedules. Immune response measures included cross-clade and epitope-specific binding antibodies, neutralising antibodies, and antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity measured 2 weeks after the month 1, 3, and 6 vaccinations. This trial is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT01799954.
FINDINGS
Between Aug 23, 2012, and April 18, 2013, 148 healthy adult volunteers were screened for the trial, of whom 96 participants were enrolled. 20 individuals were allocated to each active treatment group (groups T1-4; n=80) and four were assigned to each placebo group (groups C1-4; n=16). Vaccines containing the NYVAC vector (groups T1 and T2) were associated with more frequent severe reactogenicity and more adverse events than were vaccines containing the DNA vector (groups T3 and T4). The most frequent adverse events judged related to study product were lymphadenopathy (n=9) and hypoaesthesia (n=2). Two participants, one in the placebo group and one in the DNA-primed T3 group, had serious adverse events that were judged unrelated to study product. One participant in the T3 group died from cranial trauma after a motor vehicle accident. Across the active treatment groups, IgG responses 2 weeks after the 6-month dose of vaccine were 74-95%. Early administration of gp120 Env protein (groups T2 and T4) was associated with a substantially earlier and higher area under the curve for gp120 Env binding, production of anti-V1/V2 and neutralising antibodies, and better antibody-response coverage over a period of 18 months, compared with vaccination regimens that delayed administration of gp120 Env protein until the 3-month vaccination (groups T1 and T3).
INTERPRETATION
Co-administration of gp120 Env protein components with DNA or NYVAC vectors during priming led to early and potent induction of Env V1/V2 IgG binding antibody responses. This immunisation approach should be considered for induction of preventive antibodies in future HIV vaccine efficacy trials.

283,32307009,Effectiveness of Group Problem Management Plus (Group-PM+) for adults affected by humanitarian crises in Nepal: study protocol for a cluster randomized controlled trial.,"BACKGROUND
Globally, the lack of availability of psychological services for people exposed to adversities has led to the development of a range of scalable psychological interventions with features that enable better scale-up. Problem Management Plus (PM+) is a brief intervention of five sessions that can be delivered by non-specialists. It is designed for people in communities in low- and middle-income countries (LMIC) affected by any kind of adversity. Two recent randomized controlled trials in Pakistan and Kenya demonstrated the effectiveness of individually delivered PM+. A group version of PM+ has been developed to make the intervention more scalable and acceptable. This paper describes the protocol for a cluster randomized controlled trial (c-RCT) on locally adapted Group PM+ in Nepal.
METHODS/DESIGN
This c-RCT will compare Group PM+ to enhanced usual care (EUC) in participants with high levels of psychological distress recruited from the community. The study is designed as a two-arm, single-blind c-RCT that will be conducted in a community-based setting in Morang, a flood affected district in Eastern Nepal. Randomization will occur at ward level, the smallest administrative level in Nepal, with 72 enrolled wards allocated to Group PM+ or to EUC (ratio 1:1). Group PM+ consists of five approximately 2.5-h sessions, in which participants are taught techniques to manage their stressors and problems, and is delivered by trained and supervised community psychosocial workers (CPSWs). EUC consists of a family meeting with (a) basic information on adversity and mental health, (b) benefits of getting support, (c) information on seeking services from local health facilities with mhGAP-trained staff. The primary outcome measure is levels of individual psychological distress at endline (equivalent to 20 ± 1 weeks after baseline), measured by the General Health Questionnaire (GHQ-12). Secondary outcome measures include levels of functioning, depressive symptoms, post-traumatic stress disorder symptoms, levels of social support, somatic symptoms, and ways of coping. We hypothesize that skills acquired will mediate any impact of the intervention.
DISCUSSION
This c-RCT will contribute to the growing evidence-base for transdiagnostic psychological interventions delivered by non-specialists for people in communities affected by adversity. If Group PM+ is proven effective, the intervention manual will be released for use, giving the opportunity for further adaptation and implementation of the intervention in diverse settings with communities that require better access to psychological interventions.

Based on work suggesting that ketamine and lithium may share overlapping mechanisms of action, we tested lithium compared to placebo as a continuation strategy following ketamine in subjects with TRD. Participants who met all eligibility criteria and showed at least an initial partial response to a single intravenous infusion of ketamine 0.5 mg/kg were randomized under double-blind conditions to lithium or matching placebo before receiving an additional three infusions of ketamine. Subsequent to the ketamine treatments, participants remained on lithium or placebo during a double-blind continuation phase. The primary study outcome was depression severity as measured by the Montgomery-Åsberg Depression Rating Scale compared between the two groups at Study Day 28, which occurred ~2 weeks following the final ketamine of four infusions. Forty-seven participants with TRD were enrolled in the study and underwent an initial ketamine infusion, of whom 34 participants were deemed to have at least a partial antidepressant response and were eligible for randomization. Comparison between treatment with daily oral lithium (n = 18) or matching placebo (n = 16) at the primary outcome showed no difference in depression severity between groups (t 32 = 0.11, p = 0.91, 95% CI [-7.87, 8.76]).

149 patients with CKD stages 3 and 4 between July 2011 and April 2016 at 3 centers in Cleveland, OH, and the Bronx, NY.
INTERVENTION
Sodium bicarbonate (0.4 mEq per kg of ideal body weight per day) (n=74) or identical-appearing placebo (n=75).
OUTCOMES
Dual primary outcomes were muscle function assessed using sit-to-stand test and bone mineral density. Muscle biopsies were performed at baseline and 2 months. Participants were seen at baseline and 2, 6, 12, and 24 months.
RESULTS
Mean baseline serum bicarbonate level was 24.0±2.2 (SD) mEq/L and mean baseline estimated glomerular filtration rate was 36.3±11.2mL/min/1.73m 2 . Baseline characteristics did not differ between groups. Mean serum bicarbonate levels in the intervention arm during follow-up were 26.4±2.2, 25.5±2.3, 25.6±2.6, and 24.4±2.8 mEq/L (at 2, 6, 12, and 24 months). These were significantly higher than in the placebo group (P<0.001). Compared to the placebo group, participants randomly assigned to sodium bicarbonate treatment had no significant differences in sit-to-stand time (5 repetitions: P=0.1; and 10 repetitions P=0.07) or bone mineral density (P=0.3). Sodium bicarbonate treatment caused a decrease in serum potassium levels that was of borderline statistical significance (P=0.05). There were no significant differences in estimated glomerular filtration rates, blood pressure, weight, serious adverse events, or levels of muscle gene expression between the randomly assigned groups.
LIMITATIONS
Initial mean serum bicarbonate level was in the normal range.
CONCLUSIONS
Sodium bicarbonate therapy in patients with CKD stages 3 and 4 significantly increases serum bicarbonate and decreases potassium levels. No differences were found in muscle function or bone mineral density between the randomly assigned groups. Larger trials are required to evaluate effects on kidney function.

Nitric oxide (NO) plays an important role in normal postnatal transition. Our aims were to determine whether adding inhaled NO (iNO) decreases supplemental oxygen exposure in preterm infants requiring positive pressure ventilation (PPV) during resuscitation and to study iNO effects on heart rate (HR), oxygen saturation (SpO 2 ), and need for intubation during the first 20 min of life.
METHODS
This was a pilot, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial. Infants 25 0/7-31 6/7 weeks' gestational age requiring PPV with supplemental oxygen during resuscitation were enrolled. PPV was initiated with either oxygen (FiO 2 -0.30) + iNO at 20 ppm (iNO group) or oxygen (FiO 2 -0.30) + nitrogen (placebo group). Oxygen was titrated targeting defined SpO 2 per current guidelines. After 10 min, iNO/nitrogen was weaned stepwise per protocol and terminated at 17 min.
RESULTS
Twenty-eight infants were studied (14 per group). The mean gestational age in both groups was similar. Cumulative FiO 2 and rate of exposure to high FiO 2 (>0.60) were significantly lower in the iNO group. There were no differences in HR, SpO 2 , and need for intubation.

287,32375800,Visual rehabilitation of patients with corneal diseases.,"BACKGROUND
Although most patients with visual impairment due to corneal diseases can be treated successfully with surgery, some require visual rehabilitation to restore reading ability. To evaluate the best LVAs especially in terms of reading speed and characterize this specific patient group we performed a prospective, randomized cross-over trial.
METHODS
All 34 patients underwent a detailed examination (slit-lamp, funduscopy, SD-OCT, ETDRS) as screening. Only patients with corneal diseases without other ocular diseases were included. Reading-speed was assessed with International-Reading-Speed-Texts (IReST) consecutively with five different LVAs (low vision aids) during one day in a randomized cross-over design. Corneal haze was quantified with corneal densitometry (Pentacam).
RESULTS
Patients were either visually impaired (n = 28), severely impaired (n = 4) or legally blind (n = 2). Patients read significantly faster with LVAs (p < 0.0001). Fastest reading speed could be achieved with video magnifier (CCTV). Optical magnifier and portable-electronic magnifier enabled significantly lower reading speeds (p < 0.01). In a subgroup of patients (VA < 3/60,n = 6) black background enabled patients to read significantly faster compared to white background (p = 0.03).
CONCLUSION
Patients with low magnification requirement can be treated successfully with optical LVAs and portable-electronic magnifiers. More severely afflicted patients need a CCTV. Black background enables fastest reading-speeds, probably due to less blinding. Visual impairment can be estimated with corneal densitometry. Our trial confirms the capability of LVAs to successfully restore the reading ability in patients with corneal diseases, which is a crucial part of visual rehabilitation.

288,30477961,"Substitution of ethambutol with linezolid during the intensive phase of treatment of pulmonary tuberculosis: a prospective, multicentre, randomised, open-label, phase 2 trial.","BACKGROUND
Linezolid improves the treatment outcomes of multidrug-resistant tuberculosis substantially. We investigated whether use of linezolid instead of ethambutol increases the proportion of sputum culture conversion at 8 weeks of treatment in patients with pulmonary tuberculosis.
METHODS
We did a phase 2, multicentre, randomised, open-label trial for patients with pulmonary tuberculosis at the three affiliated hospitals to Seoul National University and National Medical Center (Seoul-Seongnam, South Korea). Patients, aged 20-80 years, with a positive sputum for pulmonary tuberculosis, but without resistance to rifampicin, and current treatment administered for 7 days or fewer, were randomly assigned at a 1:1:1 ratio into three groups. The control group received ethambutol (2 months) with isoniazid, rifampicin, and pyrazinamide. The second group used linezolid (600 mg/day) for 2 weeks and the third group for 4 weeks instead of ethambutol for 2 months. We used a minimisation method to randomise, and stratified according to institution, cavitation on chest radiographs, and diabetes. The primary endpoint was the proportion of patients with negative culture conversion of sputum in liquid media after 8 weeks of treatment. The results of this trial were analysed primarily in the modified intention-to-treat population. The trial is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, number NCT01994460.
FINDINGS
Between Feb 19, 2014, and Jan 13, 2017, a total of 429 patients were enrolled and 428 were randomly assigned into either the control group (142 patients), the linezolid 2 weeks group (143 patients), or the linezolid 4 weeks group (143 patients). Among them, 401 were eligible for primary efficacy analyses. In the modified intention-to-treat analyses, negative cultures in liquid media at 8 weeks of treatment were observed in 103 (76·9%) of 134 control patients, 111 (82·2%) of 135 in the linezolid 2 weeks group, and 100 (75·8%) of 132 in the linezolid 4 weeks groups. The difference from the control group was 5.4% (95% CI -4·3 to 15·0, p=0·28) for the linezolid 2 weeks group and -1·1% (-11·3 to 9·1, p=0·83) for the linezolid 4 weeks group. Numbers of patients who experienced at least one adverse event were similar across the groups (86 [62·8%] of 137 in control, 79 [57·2%] of 138 in the linezolid 2 weeks group, and 75 [62·0%] of 121 in the linezolid 4 weeks group). Resistance to linezolid was not identified in any patient.
INTERPRETATION
Higher rates of culture conversion at 8 weeks of treatment with short-term use of linezolid were not observed. However, safety analyses and the resistance profile suggested the potential role of linezolid in shortening of treatment for drug-susceptible tuberculosis.

289,30628813,Naltrexone and alcohol effects on craving for cigarettes in heavy drinking smokers.,"Naltrexone has been extensively studied for the treatment of alcohol use disorder. However, less is known about the effects of naltrexone on smoking outcomes in the context of alcohol use among East Asian individuals who have been suggested to differ in response to alcohol and to naltrexone. The present study is a secondary analysis that used a double-blind placebo-controlled design (n = 31) to examine the (a) effects of alcohol on basal craving for cigarettes, (b) effects of naltrexone on cigarette craving and alcohol craving during alcohol administration, and (c) relationship between craving for alcohol and cigarettes. Heavy drinking smokers of East Asian descent completed two counterbalanced intravenous alcohol administration sessions, one after taking naltrexone (50 mg) for five days and one after taking a placebo for five days. Self-reported subjective craving for cigarettes and for alcohol was recorded during each experimental session. Craving for cigarettes and alcohol increased significantly throughout the intravenous alcohol administration. A significant breath alcohol concentration (BrAC) × Medication interaction revealed that naltrexone blunted cigarette craving during alcohol administration, compared to placebo. Naltrexone significantly reduced craving for alcohol during alcohol administration in this group of heavy drinking smokers. Alcohol craving significantly predicted cigarette craving, however this effect did not vary across rising alcohol administration or by medication. These findings demonstrate that naltrexone reduces the urge to smoke and to drink during alcohol administration. Clinical studies are needed to further ascertain whether naltrexone may be of benefit to this distinct subgroup of heavy drinking smokers.

290,32323144,Cost-utility analysis of factor VIII diet therapies prepared using blood plasma vs. recombinant technique for patients with hemophilia A.,"BACKGROUND
Hemophilia is known as one of the most common coagulation disorders whose treatment costs are particularly high in developing countries, and about 90% of them are related to factor VIII (FVIII) and direct medical costs (DMCs). Thus, the present study aimed to analyze cost-utility of two FVIII diet therapies prepared using blood plasma and recombinant technique.
METHODS
This study was an economic evaluation fulfilled through a cost-utility approach. To this end, a total number of 120 patients were randomly selected using Krejcie & Morgan's Table and then received blood plasma and recombinant FVIII. The decision tree structure was also utilized to estimate economic and clinical outcomes. Moreover, costs were reviewed from societal perspective. Quality-adjusted life year (QALY) was subsequently determined as the measure of effectiveness (MOE). Besides, one-way (univariate) sensitivity analysis was performed to quantify uncertainty effects of the study parameters. The information was ultimately analyzed using the TreeAge Pro 2011 and the Microsoft Office Excel 2010 software.
RESULTS
The results revealed that the recombinant diet therapy had higher costs and effectiveness compared with blood-plasma-derived FVIII, so that the mean costs of these two diet therapies were equal to 37,624 and 20,349 purchasing power parity (PPP) $ with utility scores of 0.78 and 0.62; respectively. Since the incremental cost-effectiveness ratio (ICER) for the recombinant medications was over three times of the threshold level, it was considered as overwhelming because of its high cost in spite of its better effectiveness. Moreover, the results of one-way (univariate) sensitivity analysis demonstrated the highest sensitivity to the utility in patients who had been injected with blood-plasma-derived FVIII and had been successfully treated.
CONCLUSION
The study results revealed that FVIII prepared using blood plasma for hemophilia A patients had higher cost-effectiveness compared with that made using recombinant technique.

291,32034074,Results of the ADAPT Phase 3 Study of Rocapuldencel-T in Combination with Sunitinib as First-Line Therapy in Patients with Metastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma.,"PURPOSE
Rocapuldencel-T is an autologous immunotherapy prepared from mature monocyte-derived dendritic cells (DC), coelectroporated with amplified tumor RNA plus CD40L RNA. This pivotal phase III trial was initiated to investigate the safety and efficacy of a combination therapy dosing regimen of Rocapuldencel-T plus sunitinib in patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC).
PATIENTS AND METHODS
Patients received either Rocapuldencel-T plus standard of care (SOC) or SOC treatment alone. The primary objective compared overall survival (OS) between groups. Secondary objectives included safety assessments, progression-free survival (PFS), and tumor responses based on RECIST 1.1 criteria. Exploratory analyses included immunologic assessments and correlates with OS.
RESULTS
Between 2013 and 2016, 462 patients were randomized 2:1, 307 to the combination group and 155 to the SOC group. Median OS in the combination group was 27.7 months [95% confidence interval (CI) 23.0-35.9] and 32.4 months (95% CI, 22.5-) in the SOC group HR of 1.10 (95% CI, 0.83-1.40). PFS was 6.0 months and 7.83 months for the combination and SOC groups, respectively [HR = 1.15 (95% CI, 0.92-1.44)]. The ORR was 42.7% (95% CI, 37.1-48.4) for the combination group and 39.4% (95% CI, 31.6-47.5) for the SOC group. Median follow up was 29 months (0.4-47.7 months). On the basis of the lack of clinical efficacy, the ADAPT trial was terminated on February 17, 2017. Immune responses were detected in 70% of patients treated with Rocapuldencel-T, and the magnitude of the immune response positively correlated with OS. In addition, we report the survival-predictive value of measuring IL-12 produced by the DC vaccine and the observation that high baseline numbers of T regulatory cells are associated with improved outcomes in DC-treated patients, but are associated with poor outcomes in patients receiving SOC treatment. No serious adverse events attributed to the study medication have been reported to date.
CONCLUSIONS
Rocapuldencel-T did not improve OS in patients treated with combination therapy, although the induced immune response correlated with OS. Moreover, we identified two potential survival-predictive biomarkers for patients receiving DC based immunotherapy, IL-12 produced by the DC vaccine and higher numbers of T regulatory cells present in the peripheral blood of patients with advanced RCC.",2020,"Rocapuldencel-T did not improve OS in patients treated with combination therapy, although the immune response correlated with OS.","['patients with mRCC', '462 patients were randomized 2:1, 307 to the combination group and 155 to the SOC group', 'patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma']","['Rocapuldencel-T plus SOC or SOC treatment alone', 'sunitinib', 'Rocapuldencel-T plus sunitinib']","['PFS', 'Immune responses', 'survival-predictive value of IL-12', 'safety and efficacy', 'Median OS', 'ORR', 'safety, PFS and tumor responses', 'immunological assessments and correlates with OS']","[{'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C0439745', 'cui_str': 'Grouped (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0278678', 'cui_str': 'Metastatic renal cell carcinoma'}]","[{'cui': 'C0332287', 'cui_str': 'With (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0087111', 'cui_str': 'Therapy'}, {'cui': 'C1176020', 'cui_str': 'sunitinib'}]","[{'cui': 'C0301872', 'cui_str': 'Immune response, function (observable entity)'}, {'cui': 'C0220921', 'cui_str': 'survival'}, {'cui': 'C1273875', 'cui_str': 'Values (community)'}, {'cui': 'C0123759', 'cui_str': 'Interleukin-12'}, {'cui': 'C0036043', 'cui_str': 'Safety'}, {'cui': 'C2939193', 'cui_str': 'Median (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0027651', 'cui_str': 'Neoplasia'}, {'cui': 'C0205470', 'cui_str': 'Immunologic (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C1261322', 'cui_str': 'Clinical evaluation'}]",462.0,0.143527,"Rocapuldencel-T did not improve OS in patients treated with combination therapy, although the immune response correlated with OS.","[{'ForeName': 'Robert A', 'Initials': 'RA', 'LastName': 'Figlin', 'Affiliation': 'Cedars-Sinai Medical Center Los Angeles, California.'}, {'ForeName': 'Nizar M', 'Initials': 'NM', 'LastName': 'Tannir', 'Affiliation': 'University of Texas, MD Anderson Cancer Center Houston, Texas.'}, {'ForeName': 'Robert G', 'Initials': 'RG', 'LastName': 'Uzzo', 'Affiliation': 'Fox Chase Cancer Center, Temple University Health System, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.'}, {'ForeName': 'Scott S', 'Initials': 'SS', 'LastName': 'Tykodi', 'Affiliation': 'Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center, University of Washington, Seattle, Washington.'}, {'ForeName': 'David Y T', 'Initials': 'DYT', 'LastName': 'Chen', 'Affiliation': 'Fox Chase Cancer Center, Temple University Health System, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.'}, {'ForeName': 'Viraj', 'Initials': 'V', 'LastName': 'Master', 'Affiliation': 'Emory University Department of Urology, Emory University Hospital, Atlanta, Georgia.'}, {'ForeName': 'Anil', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Kapoor', 'Affiliation': 'Urologic Cancer Centre for Research and Innovation, Hamilton, Ontario, Canada.'}, {'ForeName': 'Daniel', 'Initials': 'D', 'LastName': 'Vaena', 'Affiliation': 'Holden Comprehensive Cancer Center, University of Iowa, Iowa City, Iowa.'}, {'ForeName': 'William', 'Initials': 'W', 'LastName': 'Lowrance', 'Affiliation': 'Huntsman Cancer Hospital, University of Utah, Salt Lake City, Utah.'}, {'ForeName': 'Gennady', 'Initials': 'G', 'LastName': 'Bratslavsky', 'Affiliation': 'SUNY Upstate Medical University, Syracuse, New York.'}, {'ForeName': 'Mark', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'DeBenedette', 'Affiliation': 'Argos Therapeutics Inc., now CoImmune Inc., Durham, North Carolina. mdebenedette@coimmune.com.'}, {'ForeName': 'Alicia', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Gamble', 'Affiliation': 'Argos Therapeutics Inc., now CoImmune Inc., Durham, North Carolina.'}, {'ForeName': 'Ana', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Plachco', 'Affiliation': 'Argos Therapeutics Inc., now CoImmune Inc., Durham, North Carolina.'}, {'ForeName': 'Marcus S', 'Initials': 'MS', 'LastName': 'Norris', 'Affiliation': 'Argos Therapeutics Inc., now CoImmune Inc., Durham, North Carolina.'}, {'ForeName': 'Joe', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Horvatinovich', 'Affiliation': 'Argos Therapeutics Inc., now CoImmune Inc., Durham, North Carolina.'}, {'ForeName': 'Irina Y', 'Initials': 'IY', 'LastName': 'Tcherepanova', 'Affiliation': 'Argos Therapeutics Inc., now CoImmune Inc., Durham, North Carolina.'}, {'ForeName': 'Charles A', 'Initials': 'CA', 'LastName': 'Nicolette', 'Affiliation': 'Argos Therapeutics Inc., now CoImmune Inc., Durham, North Carolina.'}, {'ForeName': 'Christopher G', 'Initials': 'CG', 'LastName': 'Wood', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': '', 'Initials': '', 'LastName': '', 'Affiliation': ''}]",Clinical cancer research : an official journal of the American Association for Cancer Research,['10.1158/1078-0432.CCR-19-2427']
292,32059021,Evaluating the cost-consequence of a standardized strategy for the etiological diagnosis of uveitis (ULISSE study).,"MAIN OBJECTIVE
To prospectively assess the cost-consequence of a standardized diagnostic strategy as to compared to an open one for the etiological diagnosis of uveitis.
DESIGN
This was a prospective, non-inferiority, multicentre, randomized controlled trial.
METHODS
We included all consecutive patients with uveitis who had visited at least one of the Departments of Ophthalmology. In the standardized group, patients had a minimal work-up regardless of the type of uveitis (including evaluation of the CBC, ESR, C-reactive protein, tuberculin skin test, syphilis serology and chest X-ray). Depending on ophthalmological findings, further investigations could be performed. In the open strategy, ophthalmologists were free to order any kind of investigation. The main outcome was the mean cost per patient of each strategy.
RESULTS
903 uveitis patients were included from January, 2010 to May, 2013. The mean cost per patient of the standardized strategy was 182.97 euros [CI 95% (173.14; 192.80)], and the mean cost per patient of the open strategy was 251.75 euros [CI 95% (229.24; 274.25)]. Therefore, the mean cost per patient of the standardized strategy was significantly lower than the mean cost per patient of the open strategy (p<0.001). There were significantly fewer visits (p<0.001), fewer radiological procedures (p<0.004) and fewer laboratory investigations (p<0.001) in the standardized group.

293,31802732,Clinical Outcome of Febrile Tanzanian Children with Severe Malnutrition Using Anthropometry in Comparison to Clinical Signs.,"Children with malnutrition compared with those without are at higher risk of infection, with more severe outcomes. How clinicians assess nutritional risk factors in febrile children in primary care varies. We conducted a post hoc subgroup analysis of febrile children with severe malnutrition enrolled in a randomized, controlled trial in primary care centers in Tanzania. The clinical outcome of children with severe malnutrition defined by anthropometric measures and clinical signs was compared between two electronic clinical diagnostic algorithms: ePOCT, which uses weight-for-age and mid-upper arm circumference to identify and manage severe malnutrition, and ALMANACH, which uses the clinical signs of edema of both feet and visible severe wasting. Those identified as having severe malnutrition by the algorithms in each arm were prescribed antibiotics and referred to the hospital. From December 2014 to February 2016, 106 febrile children were enrolled and randomized in the parent study, and met the criteria to be included in the present analysis. ePOCT identified 56/57 children with severe malnutrition using anthropometric measures, whereas ALMANACH identified 2/49 children with severe malnutrition using clinical signs. The proportion of clinical failure, defined as the development of severe symptoms by day 7 or persisting symptoms at day 7 (per-protocol), was 1.8% (1/56) in the ePOCT arm versus 16.7% (8/48) in the Algorithm for the MANagement of Childhood illnesses arm (risk difference -14.9%, 95% CI -26.0%, -3.8%; risk ratio 0.11, 95% CI 0.01, 0.83).

294,32251031,Intrathecal Morphine versus Intrathecal Hydromorphone for Analgesia after Cesarean Delivery: A Randomized Clinical Trial.,"BACKGROUND
Intrathecal opioids are routinely administered during spinal anesthesia for postcesarean analgesia. The effectiveness of intrathecal morphine for postcesarean analgesia is well established, and the use of intrathecal hydromorphone is growing. No prospective studies have compared the effectiveness of equipotent doses of intrathecal morphine versus intrathecal hydromorphone as part of a multimodal analgesic regimen for postcesarean analgesia. The authors hypothesized that intrathecal morphine would result in superior analgesia compared with intrathecal hydromorphone 24 h after delivery.
METHODS
In this single-center, double-blinded, randomized trial, 138 parturients undergoing scheduled cesarean delivery were randomized to receive 150 µg of intrathecal morphine or 75 µg of intrathecal hydromorphone as part of a primary spinal anesthetic and multimodal analgesic regimen; 134 parturients were included in the analysis. The primary outcome was the numerical rating scale score for pain with movement 24 h after delivery. Static and dynamic pain scores, nausea, pruritus, degree of sedation, and patient satisfaction were assessed every 6 h for 36 h postpartum. Total opioid consumption was recorded.
RESULTS
There was no significant difference in pain scores with movement at 24 h (intrathecal hydromorphone median [25th, 75th] 4 [3, 5] and intrathecal morphine 3 [2, 4.5]) or at any time point (estimated difference, 0.5; 95% CI, 0 to 1; P = 0.139). Opioid received in the first 24 h did not differ between groups (median [25th, 75th] oral morphine milligram equivalents for intrathecal hydromorphone 30 [7.5, 45.06] vs. intrathecal morphine 22.5 [14.0, 37.5], P = 0.769). From Kaplan-Meier analysis, the median time to first opioid request was 5.4 h for hydromorphone and 12.1 h for morphine (log-rank test P = 0.200).
CONCLUSIONS
Although the hypothesis was that intrathecal morphine would provide superior analgesia to intrathecal hydromorphone, the results did not confirm this. At the doses studied, both intrathecal morphine and intrathecal hydromorphone provide effective postcesarean analgesia when combined with a multimodal analgesia regimen.",2020,"There was no significant difference in pain scores with movement at 24 h (intrathecal hydromorphone median [25th, 75th] 4 [3, 5] and intrathecal morphine 3 [2, 4.5]) or at any time point (estimated difference, 0.5; 95% CI, 0 to 1; P = 0.139).","['Analgesia after Cesarean Delivery', '134 parturients were included in the analysis', 'women receiving cesarean delivery using pain score at 24 h as the primary outcome', '138 parturients undergoing scheduled cesarean delivery', 'postcesarean analgesia']","['intrathecal hydromorphone as part of a primary spinal anesthetic and multimodal analgesic regimen', 'Intrathecal Morphine', 'Intrathecal Hydromorphone', 'hydromorphone', 'intrathecal hydromorphone', 'morphine', 'Intrathecal opioids', 'intrathecal morphine and intrathecal hydromorphone', 'intrathecal hydromorphone and intrathecal morphine', 'intrathecal morphine']","['median time to first opioid request', 'Static and dynamic pain scores, nausea, pruritus, degree of sedation, and patient satisfaction', 'numerical rating scale score for pain with movement 24 h after delivery', 'breakthrough analgesic requirements', 'superior analgesia', 'pain scores', 'Total opioid consumption']","[{'cui': 'C0002766', 'cui_str': 'Pain management'}, {'cui': 'C0007876', 'cui_str': 'Cesarean section'}, {'cui': 'C4517565', 'cui_str': '134'}, {'cui': 'C0332257', 'cui_str': 'Including'}, {'cui': 'C0002778', 'cui_str': 'Analysis'}, {'cui': 'C0043210', 'cui_str': 'Woman'}, {'cui': 'C0582148', 'cui_str': 'Pain score'}, {'cui': 'C0205225', 'cui_str': 'Principal'}, {'cui': 'C1274040', 'cui_str': 'Result'}, {'cui': 'C0035008', 'cui_str': 'Reinforcement Schedule'}]","[{'cui': 'C0677897', 'cui_str': 'Intrathecal route'}, {'cui': 'C0012306', 'cui_str': 'Hydromorphone'}, {'cui': 'C0205225', 'cui_str': 'Principal'}, {'cui': 'C0002928', 'cui_str': 'Spinal anesthesia'}, {'cui': 'C0002771', 'cui_str': 'Analgesic'}, {'cui': 'C0040808', 'cui_str': 'Protocols, Treatment'}, {'cui': 'C0026549', 'cui_str': 'Morphine'}, {'cui': 'C0002772', 'cui_str': 'OPIOIDS'}]","[{'cui': 'C0549183', 'cui_str': 'Midline'}, {'cui': 'C0040223', 'cui_str': 'Time'}, {'cui': 'C0002772', 'cui_str': 'OPIOIDS'}, {'cui': 'C1272683', 'cui_str': 'Requested'}, {'cui': 'C0441463', 'cui_str': 'Static'}, {'cui': 'C0729333', 'cui_str': 'Dynamic'}, {'cui': 'C0582148', 'cui_str': 'Pain score'}, {'cui': 'C0027497', 'cui_str': 'Nausea'}, {'cui': 'C0033774', 'cui_str': 'Itching'}, {'cui': 'C0441889', 'cui_str': 'Levels'}, {'cui': 'C0235195', 'cui_str': 'Sedated'}, {'cui': 'C0030702', 'cui_str': 'Client satisfaction'}, {'cui': 'C0237753', 'cui_str': 'Number'}, {'cui': 'C0175659', 'cui_str': 'Scale'}, {'cui': 'C0449820', 'cui_str': 'Score'}, {'cui': 'C0030193', 'cui_str': 'Pain'}, {'cui': 'C0026649', 'cui_str': 'Movement'}, {'cui': 'C0011209', 'cui_str': 'Delivery procedure'}, {'cui': 'C0444503', 'cui_str': 'Breakthrough'}, {'cui': 'C0002771', 'cui_str': 'Analgesic'}, {'cui': 'C1282910', 'cui_str': 'Upper'}, {'cui': 'C0002766', 'cui_str': 'Pain management'}, {'cui': 'C0439810', 'cui_str': 'Total'}, {'cui': 'C0009830', 'cui_str': 'Consumption'}]",138.0,0.536156,"There was no significant difference in pain scores with movement at 24 h (intrathecal hydromorphone median [25th, 75th] 4 [3, 5] and intrathecal morphine 3 [2, 4.5]) or at any time point (estimated difference, 0.5; 95% CI, 0 to 1; P = 0.139).","[{'ForeName': 'Emily E', 'Initials': 'EE', 'LastName': 'Sharpe', 'Affiliation': 'From the Departments of Anesthesiology and Peri-operative Medicine (E.E.S., R.J.M., K.W.A., D.A.O., R.L.J., A.K.J., A.D.N., H.P.S.)

295,31538372,Differential Posttreatment Outcomes of Methylphenidate for Smoking Cessation for Individuals With ADHD.,"BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES
In a multisite, randomized study (CTN-0029), a 3-month course of Osmotic-Release Oral System Methylphenidate (OROS-MPH) improved smoking cessation in a group of patients with higher baseline severity in Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). This treatment, however, worsened smoking cessation outcome in the group with lower baseline ADHD severity. We want to examine whether this differential treatment effect persisted after OROS-MPH was discontinued.
METHODS
We conducted a secondary analysis of the 1-month follow-up data from CTN-0029 after the discontinuation of OROS-MPH (N = 134). Nicotine patch was tapered during this month. We tested whether OROS-MPH had an effect on self-reported 7-day abstinence by week, as well as possible treatment by baseline ADHD severity interactions.
RESULTS
Abstinence diminished overall in time after the end of the treatment. In the high baseline severity group, patients who received OROS-MPH had an advantage in 7-day abstinence at week 15 (40% for OROS-MPH vs 20% for placebo, odds ratio = 2.63, P = .028). In the lower severity group (n = 121), no difference was detected (29% for OROS-MPH vs 32% for placebo, P = 1.00) between the two treatment groups. There was also a significant treatment by baseline ADHD severity interaction (P = .03).
CONCLUSIONS AND SCIENTIFIC SIGNIFICANCE
OROS-MPH promotes abstinence beyond the course of treatment for patients with more severe ADHD, while the paradoxical effects in the lower baseline severity group is not persistent after medication discontinuation. Targeting ADHD in smoking cessation as a comorbidity therefore can have broader impact with more precise patient selection.

296,31794974,One-year clinical outcomes following theta burst stimulation for post-traumatic stress disorder.,"Theta burst transcranial magnetic stimulation (TBS) is a potential new treatment for post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). We previously reported active intermittent TBS (iTBS) was associated with superior clinical outcomes for up to 1-month, in a sample of fifty veterans with PTSD, using a crossover design. In that study, participants randomized to the active group received a total of 4-weeks of active iTBS, or 2-weeks if randomized to sham. Results were superior with greater exposure to active iTBS, which raised the question of whether observed effects persisted over the longer-term. This study reviewed naturalistic outcomes up to 1-year from study endpoint, to test the hypothesis that greater exposure to active iTBS would be associated with superior outcomes. The primary outcome measure was clinical relapse, defined as any serious adverse event (e.g., suicide, psychiatric hospitalization, etc.,) or need for retreatment with repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS). Forty-six (92%) of the initial study's intent-to-treat participants were included. Mean age was 51.0 ± 12.3 years and seven (15.2%) were female. The group originally randomized to active iTBS (4-weeks active iTBS) demonstrated superior outcomes at one year compared to those originally randomized to sham (2-weeks active iTBS); log-rank ChiSq = 5.871, df = 1, p = 0.015; OR = 3.50, 95% CI = 1.04-11.79. Mean days to relapse were 296.0 ± 22.1 in the 4-week group, and 182.0 ± 31.9 in the 2-week group. When used, rTMS retreatment was generally effective.

297,31995812,Evaluating global brain connectivity as an imaging marker for depression: influence of preprocessing strategies and placebo-controlled ketamine treatment.,"Major depressive disorder (MDD) is associated with altered global brain connectivity (GBC), as assessed via resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rsfMRI). Previous studies found that antidepressant treatment with ketamine normalized aberrant GBC changes in the prefrontal and cingulate cortices, warranting further investigations of GBC as a putative imaging marker. These results were obtained via global signal regression (GSR). This study is an independent replication of that analysis using a separate dataset. GBC was analyzed in 28 individuals with MDD and 22 healthy controls (HCs) at baseline, post-placebo, and post-ketamine. To investigate the effects of preprocessing, three distinct pipelines were used: (1) regression of white matter (WM)/cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) signals only (BASE); (2) WM/CSF + GSR (GSR); and (3) WM/CSF + physiological parameter regression (PHYSIO). Reduced GBC was observed in individuals with MDD only at baseline in the anterior and medial cingulate cortices, as well as in the prefrontal cortex only after regressing the global signal. Ketamine had no effect compared to baseline or placebo in either group in any pipeline. PHYSIO did not resemble GBC preprocessed with GSR. These results concur with several studies that used GSR to study GBC. Further investigations are warranted into disease-specific components of global fMRI signals that may drive these results and of GBCr as a potential imaging marker in MDD.",2020,"Reduced GBC was observed in individuals with MDD only at baseline in the anterior and medial cingulate cortices, as well as in the prefrontal cortex only after regressing the global signal.","['Major depressive disorder (MDD', '28 individuals with MDD and 22 healthy controls (HCs) at baseline, post']","['placebo', 'Ketamine', 'placebo-controlled ketamine', 'ketamine', 'white matter (WM)/cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) signals only (BASE); (2) WM/CSF\u2009+\u2009GSR (GSR); and (3) WM/CSF\u2009+\u2009physiological parameter regression (PHYSIO']","['GBC', 'Reduced GBC']","[{'cui': 'C1269683', 'cui_str': 'Major Depressive Disorder'}, {'cui': 'C0237401', 'cui_str': 'Individual (person)'}, {'cui': 'C2587213', 'cui_str': 'Controlled (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0687676', 'cui_str': 'After values (qualifier value)'}]","[{'cui': 'C1696465', 'cui_str': 'placebo'}, {'cui': 'C0022614', 'cui_str': 'Ketamine'}, {'cui': 'C2587213', 'cui_str': 'Controlled (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0682708'}, {'cui': 'C0444611', 'cui_str': 'Fluid - descriptor'}, {'cui': 'C0205463', 'cui_str': 'Physiologic (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0449381', 'cui_str': 'Observation parameter'}, {'cui': 'C0684321', 'cui_str': 'Regression'}]","[{'cui': 'C0392756', 'cui_str': 'Reduced (qualifier value)'}]",28.0,0.0521611,"Reduced GBC was observed in individuals with MDD only at baseline in the anterior and medial cingulate cortices, as well as in the prefrontal cortex only after regressing the global signal.","[{'ForeName': 'Christoph', 'Initials': 'C', 'LastName': 'Kraus', 'Affiliation': 'Section on the Neurobiology and Treatment of Mood Disorders, National Institute of Mental Health, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, MD, USA. christoph.kraus@nih.gov.'}, {'ForeName': 'Anahit', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Mkrtchian', 'Affiliation': 'Section on the Neurobiology and Treatment of Mood Disorders, National Institute of Mental Health, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, MD, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Bashkim', 'Initials': 'B', 'LastName': 'Kadriu', 'Affiliation': 'Section on the Neurobiology and Treatment of Mood Disorders, National Institute of Mental Health, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, MD, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Allison C', 'Initials': 'AC', 'LastName': 'Nugent', 'Affiliation': 'Section on the Neurobiology and Treatment of Mood Disorders, National Institute of Mental Health, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, MD, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Carlos A', 'Initials': 'CA', 'LastName': 'Zarate', 'Affiliation': 'Section on the Neurobiology and Treatment of Mood Disorders, National Institute of Mental Health, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, MD, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Jennifer W', 'Initials': 'JW', 'LastName': 'Evans', 'Affiliation': 'Section on the Neurobiology and Treatment of Mood Disorders, National Institute of Mental Health, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, MD, USA.'}]",Neuropsychopharmacology : official publication of the American College of Neuropsychopharmacology,['10.1038/s41386-020-0624-0']
298,31995813,"Modafinil enhances cognitive, but not emotional conflict processing via enhanced inferior frontal gyrus activation and its communication with the dorsomedial prefrontal cortex.","Cognitive control regulates cognitive and emotional systems to facilitate goal-directed behavior in the context of task-irrelevant distractors. Cognitive control deficits contribute to residual functional impairments across psychiatric disorders and represent a promising novel treatment target. Translational evidence suggests that modafinil may enhance performance in executive functions; however, differential effects on regulatory control in cognitive and emotional domains have not been examined. The present pre-registered randomized-controlled pharmacological fMRI trial examined differential effects of modafinil (single-dose, 200 mg) on cognitive and emotional conflict processing. To further separate objective cognitive enhancing effects from subjective performance perception, a metacognitive paradigm was employed. Results indicated that modafinil specifically enhanced cognitive conflict performance and concomitantly increased activation in the inferior frontal gyrus and its functional communication with the dorsomedial prefrontal cortex. Exploratory analysis further revealed modafinil-enhanced basolateral amygdala reactivity to cognitive conflict, with stronger reactivity being associated with higher cognitive conflict performance. Whereas modafinil enhanced cognitive performance in the metacognitive paradigm, confidence indices remained unaffected. Overall, the present results suggest that modafinil has the potential to enhance cognitive conflict processing while leaving emotional conflict processing unaffected. On the neural level modafinil enhanced the recruitment of a network engaged in general conflict and regulatory control processes, whereas effects on the amygdala may reflect improved arousal-mediated attention processes for conflicting information. The pattern of cognitive enhancing effects in the absence of effects on affective processing suggests a promising potential to enhance cognitive control in clinical populations.",2020,"On the neural level modafinil enhanced the recruitment of a network engaged in general conflict and regulatory control processes, whereas effects on the amygdala may reflect improved arousal-mediated attention processes for conflicting information.",[],"['Modafinil', 'modafinil']","['cognitive performance', 'cognitive and emotional conflict processing', 'cognitive conflict performance']",[],"[{'cui': 'C0066677', 'cui_str': 'modafinil'}]","[{'cui': 'C0849912', 'cui_str': 'Emotional (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0009671', 'cui_str': 'Conflict'}]",,0.0288783,"On the neural level modafinil enhanced the recruitment of a network engaged in general conflict and regulatory control processes, whereas effects on the amygdala may reflect improved arousal-mediated attention processes for conflicting information.","[{'ForeName': 'Jialin', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Li', 'Affiliation': 'The Clinical Hospital of the Chengdu Brain Science Institute, MOE Key Laboratory for Neuroinformation, University of Electronic Science and Technology of China, Chengdu, China.'}, {'ForeName': 'Xi', 'Initials': 'X', 'LastName': 'Yang', 'Affiliation': 'The Clinical Hospital of the Chengdu Brain Science Institute, MOE Key Laboratory for Neuroinformation, University of Electronic Science and Technology of China, Chengdu, China.'}, {'ForeName': 'Feng', 'Initials': 'F', 'LastName': 'Zhou', 'Affiliation': 'The Clinical Hospital of the Chengdu Brain Science Institute, MOE Key Laboratory for Neuroinformation, University of Electronic Science and Technology of China, Chengdu, China.'}, {'ForeName': 'Congcong', 'Initials': 'C', 'LastName': 'Liu', 'Affiliation': 'The Clinical Hospital of the Chengdu Brain Science Institute, MOE Key Laboratory for Neuroinformation, University of Electronic Science and Technology of China, Chengdu, China.'}, {'ForeName': 'Zhenyu', 'Initials': 'Z', 'LastName': 'Wei', 'Affiliation': 'The Clinical Hospital of the Chengdu Brain Science Institute, MOE Key Laboratory for Neuroinformation, University of Electronic Science and Technology of China, Chengdu, China.'}, {'ForeName': 'Fei', 'Initials': 'F', 'LastName': 'Xin', 'Affiliation': 'The Clinical Hospital of the Chengdu Brain Science Institute, MOE Key Laboratory for Neuroinformation, University of Electronic Science and Technology of China, Chengdu, China.'}, {'ForeName': 'Bianca', 'Initials': 'B', 'LastName': 'Daumann', 'Affiliation': 'LVR Clinics of Cologne, Cologne, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Jörg', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Daumann', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Psychiatry and Psychotherapy, University of Cologne, Cologne, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Keith M', 'Initials': 'KM', 'LastName': 'Kendrick', 'Affiliation': 'The Clinical Hospital of the Chengdu Brain Science Institute, MOE Key Laboratory for Neuroinformation, University of Electronic Science and Technology of China, Chengdu, China.'}, {'ForeName': 'Benjamin', 'Initials': 'B', 'LastName': 'Becker', 'Affiliation': 'The Clinical Hospital of the Chengdu Brain Science Institute, MOE Key Laboratory for Neuroinformation, University of Electronic Science and Technology of China, Chengdu, China. ben_becker@gmx.de.'}]",Neuropsychopharmacology : official publication of the American College of Neuropsychopharmacology,['10.1038/s41386-020-0625-z']
299,32320457,Sexual network distribution of HIV self-testing kits: Findings from the process evaluation of an intervention for men who have sex with men in China.,"BACKGROUND
The World Health Organization has recommended HIV self-testing (HIVST) as an alternative testing strategy given the limitations of facility-based testing. While the benefits of HIV self-testing have been demonstrated at the individual level among men who have sex with men (MSM), limited data exist on if this testing approach can be effectively diffused through individuals' social or sexual networks. The objectives of this study were to examine patterns and correlates of HIVST distribution within Chinese MSM's sexual networks.
METHODS
Data used for this analysis was a part of the process evaluation of an HIVST intervention trial among MSM in Nanjing, China. Between May and October 2017, we enrolled 400 men into the trial. Participants assigned to the intervention group (N = 200) were given three HIVST kits at baseline and could request more during the follow-up periods. We incorporated measures for process evaluation in the self-administered online follow-up surveys. This analysis reported findings from the three-month follow-up survey in the intervention group. Frequencies and percentages were used to describe characteristics of participants who distributed kits to their sexual partners as well as patterns of distribution. Multivariable logistic regression was conducted to identify independent correlates of participants who distributed the kits.
RESULTS
Of the 177 participants retained (88.5%) at the three-month follow-up, 72 (40.7%) distributed one or more kits to either primary or casual partners. About half of distributors (51.4%) gave one HIVST kit to their sexual partners while 15.3% distributed 3 or more. Over half gave these kits (58.3%) to primary sexual partners while 27.8% reported giving the kits to both primary and casual partners. About half (54.2%) of distributors used the kits together with their partners. Compared to participants who had an HIV test in the past six months, those who tested over six months ago or never tested had significantly lower odds of distributing the kits (AOR = 0.484, 95% CI: 0.250-0.983, p = 0.032). Compared to those who had not used the kits themselves, participants who did had significantly higher odds of distributing the kits (AOR = 3.345, 95% CI: 1.488-7.517, p = 0.003). Participants who reported higher HIV testing efficacy had 2.051 fold greater odds (95% CI: 1.062-3.961, p = 0.033) of distributing the kits compared to those who had lower efficacy.
CONCLUSION
Our study demonstrated that a sexual network-based approach to distributing HIVST among Chinese MSM is feasible and can be a promising strategy to improve the effectiveness of HIVST programs including its reach to untested men. Such approach should be complimented by intervention components that enhance HIV testing efficacy and improve experiences of HIVST.",2020,"Participants who reported higher HIV testing efficacy had 2.051 fold greater odds (95% CI: 1.062-3.961, p = 0.033) of distributing the kits compared to those who had lower efficacy.

300,28489506,Prehospital Intubation is Associated with Favorable Outcomes and Lower Mortality in ProTECT III.,"OBJECTIVE
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) causes more than 2.5 million emergency department visits, hospitalizations, or deaths annually. Prehospital endotracheal intubation has been associated with poor outcomes in patients with TBI in several retrospective observational studies. We evaluated the relationship between prehospital intubation, functional outcomes, and mortality using high quality data on clinical practice collected prospectively during a randomized multicenter clinical trial.
METHODS
ProTECT III was a multicenter randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial of early administration of progesterone in 882 patients with acute moderate to severe nonpenetrating TBI. Patients were excluded if they had an index GCS of 3 and nonreactive pupils, those with withdrawal of life support on arrival, and if they had documented prolonged hypotension and/or hypoxia. Prehospital intubation was performed as per local clinical protocol in each participating EMS system. Models for favorable outcome and mortality included prehospital intubation, method of transport, index GCS, age, race, and ethnicity as independent variables. Significance was set at α = 0.05. Favorable outcome was defined by a stratified dichotomy of the GOS-E scores in which the definition of favorable outcome depended on the severity of the initial injury.
RESULTS
Favorable outcome was more frequent in the 349 subjects with prehospital intubation (57.3%) than in the other 533 patients (46.0%, p = 0.003). Mortality was also lower in the prehospital intubation group (13.8% v. 19.5%, p = 0.03). Logistic regression analysis of prehospital intubation and mortality, adjusted for index GCS, showed that odds of dying for those with prehospital intubation were 47% lower than for those that were not intubated (OR = 0.53, 95% CI = 0.36-0.78). 279 patients with prehospital intubation were transported by air. Modeling transport method and mortality, adjusted for index GCS, showed increased odds of dying in those transported by ground compared to those transported by air (OR = 2.10, 95% CI = 1.40-3.15). Decreased odds of dying trended among those with prehospital intubation adjusted for transport method, index GCS score at randomization, age, and race/ethnicity (OR = 0.70, 95% CI = 0.37-1.31).
CONCLUSIONS
In this study that excluded moribund patients, prehospital intubation was performed primarily in patients transported by air. Prehospital intubation and air medical transport together were associated with favorable outcomes and lower mortality. Prehospital intubation was not associated with increased morbidity or mortality regardless of transport method or severity of injury.",2017,"Mortality was also lower in the prehospital intubation group (13.8% v. 19.5%, p = 0.03).","['349 subjects with', 'Patients were excluded if they had an index GCS of 3 and nonreactive pupils, those with withdrawal of life support on arrival, and if they had documented prolonged hypotension and/or hypoxia', 'patients with TBI in several retrospective observational studies', '279 patients with prehospital intubation', '882 patients with acute moderate to severe nonpenetrating TBI']","['progesterone', 'Prehospital endotracheal intubation', 'placebo']","['Mortality', 'prehospital intubation, method of transport, index GCS, age, race, and ethnicity as independent variables', 'severity of the initial injury', 'odds of dying for those with prehospital intubation', 'prehospital intubation']","[{'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C0332196', 'cui_str': 'Exclude (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0047247', 'cui_str': 'ANDS'}, {'cui': 'C0034121', 'cui_str': 'Pupil'}, {'cui': 'C1963783', 'cui_str': 'Withdrawal of life support'}, {'cui': 'C0020649', 'cui_str': 'Blood Pressure, Low'}, {'cui': 'C0242184', 'cui_str': 'Hypoxia'}, {'cui': 'C1518527', 'cui_str': 'Observational Study'}, {'cui': 'C0021925', 'cui_str': 'Intubation'}, {'cui': 'C1299393', 'cui_str': 'Moderate to severe'}]","[{'cui': 'C0373705', 'cui_str': 'Progesterone measurement (procedure)'}, {'cui': 'C0021932', 'cui_str': 'Intubation, Endotracheal'}, {'cui': 'C1696465', 'cui_str': 'placebo'}]","[{'cui': 'C0026566', 'cui_str': 'mortality'}, {'cui': 'C0021925', 'cui_str': 'Intubation'}, {'cui': 'C0025663', 'cui_str': 'Methods'}, {'cui': 'C1317949', 'cui_str': 'Transport (physical object)'}, {'cui': 'C0600653', 'cui_str': 'Indexes'}, {'cui': 'C0001792', 'cui_str': 'Elderly'}, {'cui': 'C3853635', 'cui_str': 'Race (observable entity)'}, {'cui': 'C0243103', 'cui_str': 'ethnicity'}, {'cui': 'C1299583', 'cui_str': 'Independent'}, {'cui': 'C0439828', 'cui_str': 'Variable (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0439793', 'cui_str': 'Severity (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0205265', 'cui_str': 'Initial (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C3263722', 'cui_str': 'Traumatic AND/OR non-traumatic injury'}, {'cui': 'C1546956', 'cui_str': 'Dead (finding)'}]",882.0,0.215675,"Mortality was also lower in the prehospital intubation group (13.8% v. 19.5%, p = 0.03).","[{'ForeName': 'Kurt R', 'Initials': 'KR', 'LastName': 'Denninghoff', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Tomas', 'Initials': 'T', 'LastName': 'Nuño', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Qi', 'Initials': 'Q', 'LastName': 'Pauls', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Sharon D', 'Initials': 'SD', 'LastName': 'Yeatts', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Robert', 'Initials': 'R', 'LastName': 'Silbergleit', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Yuko Y', 'Initials': 'YY', 'LastName': 'Palesch', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Lisa H', 'Initials': 'LH', 'LastName': 'Merck', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Geoff T', 'Initials': 'GT', 'LastName': 'Manley', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'David W', 'Initials': 'DW', 'LastName': 'Wright', 'Affiliation': ''}]",Prehospital emergency care : official journal of the National Association of EMS Physicians and the National Association of State EMS Directors,['10.1080/10903127.2017.1315201']
301,29154553,A randomized trial of female-specific cognitive behavior therapy for alcohol dependent women.,"This study compared Female-Specific Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (FS-CBT) to evidence-based, gender-neutral CBT (GN-CBT; Epstein & McCrady, 2009) for women with alcohol use disorder (AUD). Women (N = 99) with AUD, mean age 48, were randomly assigned to 12 outpatient manual-guided sessions of FS-CBT (n = 44) or GN-CBT (n = 55). Women were assessed at baseline and 3, 9 and 15 months after baseline for drinking and for specific issues common among women with AUD. A FS-CBT protocol was developed that was discriminable on treatment integrity ratings from GN-CBT. No treatment condition differences were found in treatment engagement, changes in drinking, alcohol-related coping, abstinence self-efficacy, motivation to change, or constructs directly targeted in FS-CBT (sociotropy, autonomy, depression, anxiety). Women in both conditions were highly engaged and satisfied with treatment, and reported significant reductions in drinking and changes in desired directions for all other variables except social support for abstinence. In the year following treatment, women in the FS-CBT but not in the CBT condition reported an increase in percentage of abstainers in their social networks (0.69% per month, SE = 0.21, p = .002). The value and appeal of female-specific programming in AUD treatment has been established in the wider literature (Epstein & Menges, 2013), and the current study provides support for the use of the Female-Specific Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (FS-CBT) manual as an option that may yield outcomes similar to standard gender-neutral CBT for women with AUD. Future research should examine whether FS-CBT enhances treatment utilization for women.

302,30654297,Randomised phase 2 study of pembrolizumab plus CC-486 versus pembrolizumab plus placebo in patients with previously treated advanced non-small cell lung cancer.,"INTRODUCTION
Preclinical and early clinical studies suggest that combining epigenetic agents with checkpoint inhibitors can potentially improve outcomes in patients with previously treated advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). This phase 2 trial examined second-line pembrolizumab + CC-486 (oral azacitidine) in patients with advanced NSCLC.
METHODS
Patients with one prior line of platinum-containing therapy were randomised in a ratio of 1:1 to CC-486 or placebo, on days 1-14, in combination with pembrolizumab on day 1 of a 21-day cycle. The primary end-point was progression-free survival (PFS). Key secondary end-points included overall survival (OS), overall response rate (ORR) and safety.
RESULTS
Among 100 patients randomised (pembrolizumab + CC-486: 51; pembrolizumab + placebo: 49), most were male (57.0%), were white (87.0%) and had Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status 1 (68.0%). No significant difference in PFS was observed between the pembrolizumab + CC-486 and pembrolizumab + placebo arms (median, 2.9 and 4.0 months, respectively; hazard ratio [HR], 1.374; 90% confidence interval [CI], 0.926-2.038; P = 0.1789). Median OS was 11.9 months versus not estimable (HR, 1.375; 90% CI, 0.830-2.276; P = 0.2968); ORR was 20% versus 14%. Median treatment duration was shorter (15.0 versus 24.1 weeks), and the number of cycles was lower (5.0 versus 7.0) with pembrolizumab + CC-486 versus pembrolizumab + placebo. No new safety signals for CC-486 or pembrolizumab were detected. Treatment-emergent adverse events were more common in the pembrolizumab + CC-486 arm, particularly gastrointestinal, potentially impacting treatment feasibility.

No improvement in PFS was observed with pembrolizumab + CC-486 versus pembrolizumab + placebo.

303,32320844,Protocol for an embedded pragmatic clinical trial to test the effectiveness of Aliviado Dementia Care in improving quality of life for persons living with dementia and their informal caregivers.,"INTRODUCTION
Persons living with Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (ADRD) frequently experience pain and behavioral and psychological symptoms of dementia (BPSD) which decrease quality of life (QOL) and influence caregiver burden. Home healthcare professionals however may underrecognize or lack the ability to manage BPSD.
INTERVENTION
This protocol describes an ADRD palliative quality assurance performance improvement program for home healthcare, Aliviado Dementia Care-Home Health Edition. It includes training, mentoring, and a toolbox containing intervention strategies.
METHODS
This embedded pragmatic clinical trial will utilize a multi-site, cluster randomized control design. Recruitment will occur from three home healthcare agencies located in New Jersey, Utah, and Florida. At each agency, care teams will be randomized as clusters and assigned to either the Aliviado Dementia Care program or usual care. We plan to enroll 345 persons living with ADRD and their informal caregiver dyads. The primary outcome will be to measure QOL in both the person living with ADRD and their informal caregiver, and emergency department visits and hospital admissions. Secondary outcomes in the person living with ADRD will include the examination of pain, BPSD, antipsychotic and analgesic use. Secondary outcomes in caregivers include burden, depressive symptoms, functional health and wellbeing, and healthcare utilization.
CONCLUSION
This study will be the first large-scale embedded pragmatic clinical trial in home healthcare focused on care quality and outcomes in addressing QOL in ADRD. If proven successful, the intervention can then be disseminated to agencies throughout the country to improve the quality of care for this vulnerable, underserved population.

304,32187881,"Licogliflozin, a Novel SGLT1 and 2 Inhibitor: Body Weight Effects in a Randomized Trial in Adults with Overweight or Obesity.","OBJECTIVE
The aim of this study was to explore the dose response of licogliflozin, a dual inhibitor of sodium/glucose cotransporter 1 (SGLT1) and 2 (SGLT2), by evaluating change in body weight in adults with overweight or obesity.
METHODS
This dose-response analysis evaluated change in body weight following 24 weeks with four once-daily and twice-daily licogliflozin doses (2.5-150 mg) versus placebo (primary end point). A further 24-week analysis evaluated the efficacy and safety of two once-daily licogliflozin doses in maintaining initial weight reduction.
RESULTS
Licogliflozin once daily or twice daily produced a significant dose-response signal for weight loss versus placebo (P < 0.0001). However, mean adjusted percent changes in body weight after 24 weeks were modest, ranging from -0.45% to -3.83% (in the 50 mg twice daily group [95% CI: -5.26% to -2.48%]; n = 75). Responder analysis of ≥ 5% weight loss at week 24 revealed significant differences versus placebo, which were most pronounced with highest doses of 50 mg twice daily (45.3%) and 150 mg once daily (42.9%) (both P < 0.01). While weight loss was greater at higher doses, gastrointestinal adverse events were also more frequent. The 50-mg once-daily dose had perhaps the best balance between efficacy and tolerability.

305,31617739,Short-term water deprivation does not increase blood pressure variability or impair neurovascular function in healthy young adults.,"High dietary salt increases arterial blood pressure variability (BPV) in salt-resistant, normotensive rodents and is thought to result from elevated plasma [Na + ] sensitizing central sympathetic networks. Our purpose was to test the hypothesis that water deprivation (WD)-induced elevations in serum [Na + ] augment BPV via changes in baroreflex function and sympathetic vascular transduction in humans. In a randomized crossover fashion, 35 adults [17 female/18 male, age: 25 ± 4 yr, systolic/diastolic blood pressure (BP): 107 ± 11/60 ± 7 mmHg, body mass index: 23 ± 3 kg/m 2 ] completed two hydration protocols: a euhydration control condition (CON) and a stepwise reduction in water intake over 3 days, concluding with 16 h of WD. We assessed blood and urine electrolyte concentrations and osmolality, resting muscle sympathetic nerve activity (MSNA; peroneal microneurography; 18 paired recordings), beat-to-beat BP (photoplethysmography), common femoral artery blood flow (Doppler ultrasound), and heart rate (single-lead ECG). A subset of participants ( n = 25) underwent ambulatory BP monitoring during day 3 of each protocol. We calculated average real variability as an index of BPV. WD increased serum [Na + ] (141.0 ± 2.3 vs. 142.1 ± 1.7 mmol/L, P < 0.01) and plasma osmolality (288 ± 4 vs. 292 ± 5 mosmol/kg H 2 O, P < 0.01). However, WD did not increase beat-to-beat (1.9 ± 0.4 vs. 1.8 ± 0.4 mmHg, P = 0.24) or ambulatory daytime (9.6 ± 2.1 vs. 9.4 ± 3.3 mmHg, P = 0.76) systolic BPV.

306,31320277,Controlling faecal incontinence in women by performing anal exercises with biofeedback or loperamide: a randomised clinical trial.,"BACKGROUND
Well designed, large comparative effectiveness trials assessing the efficacy of primary interventions for faecal incontinence are few in number. The objectives of this study were to compare different combinations of anorectal manometry-assisted biofeedback, loperamide, education, and oral placebo.
METHODS
In this randomised factorial trial, participants were recruited from eight clinical sites in the USA. Women with at least one episode of faecal incontinence per month in the past 3 months were randomly assigned 0·5:1:1:1 to one of four groups: oral placebo plus education only, placebo plus anorectal manometry-assisted biofeedback, loperamide plus education only, and loperamide plus anorectal manometry-assisted biofeedback. Participants received 2 mg per day of loperamide or oral placebo with the option of dose escalation or reduction. Women assigned to biofeedback received six visits, including strength and sensory biofeedback training. All participants received a standardised faecal incontinence patient education pamphlet and were followed for 24 weeks after starting treatment. The primary endpoint was change in St Mark's (Vaizey) faecal incontinence severity score between baseline and 24 weeks, analysed by intention-to-treat using general linear mixed modelling. Investigators, interviewers, and outcome evaluators were masked to biofeedback assignment. Participants and all study staff other than the research pharmacist were masked to medication assignment. Randomisation took place within the electronic data capture system, was stratified by site using randomly permuted blocks (block size 7), and the sizes of the blocks and the allocation sequence were known only to the data coordinating centre. This trial is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, number NCT02008565.
FINDINGS
Between April 1, 2014, and Sept 30, 2015, 377 women were enrolled, of whom 300 were randomly assigned to placebo plus education (n=42), placebo plus biofeedback (n=84), loperamide plus education (n=88), and the combined intervention of loperamide plus biofeedback (n=86). At 24 weeks, there were no differences between loperamide versus placebo (model estimated score change -1·5 points, 95% CI -3·4 to 0·4, p=0·12), biofeedback versus education (-0·7 points, -2·6 to 1·2, p=0·47), and loperamide and biofeedback versus placebo and biofeedback (-1·9 points, -4·1 to 0·3, p=0·092) or versus loperamide plus education (-1·1 points, -3·4 to 1·1, p=0·33). Constipation was the most common grade 3 or higher adverse event and was reported by two (2%) of 86 participants in the loperamide and biofeedback group and two (2%) of 88 in the loperamide plus education group. The percentage of participants with any serious adverse events did not differ between the treatment groups. Only one serious adverse event was considered related to treatment (small bowel obstruction in the placebo and biofeedback group).
INTERPRETATION
In women with normal stool consistency and faecal incontinence bothersome enough to seek treatment, we were unable to find evidence against the null hypotheses that loperamide is equivalent to placebo, that anal exercises with biofeedback is equivalent to an educational pamphlet, and that loperamide and biofeedback are equivalent to oral placebo and biofeedback or loperamide plus an educational pamphlet. Because these are common first-line treatments for faecal incontinence, clinicians could consider combining loperamide, anal manometry-assisted biofeedback, and a standard educational pamphlet, but this is likely to result in only negligible improvement over individual therapies and patients should be counselled regarding possible constipation.

307,31357206,Pharmacological mechanisms of interhemispheric signal propagation: a TMS-EEG study.,"Interhemispheric connections across the corpus callosum have a predominantly inhibitory effect. Previous electrophysiology studies imply that local inhibitory circuits are responsible for inducing transcallosal inhibition, likely through inhibitory GABA B -mediated neurotransmission. We investigated the neurochemical mechanisms involved in interhemispheric connectivity by measuring transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS)-induced interhemispheric signal propagation (ISP) in the motor cortex and dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) with electroencephalography (EEG) recordings under the pharmacological effects of baclofen, L-DOPA, dextromethorphan, and rivastigmine. We hypothesized that for both stimulated regions, GABA B receptor agonist baclofen would decrease ISP when compared against baseline while drugs that target other neurotransmitter systems (dopaminergic, acetylcholinergic, and glutamatergic systems) would have no effect on ISP. Twelve right-handed healthy volunteers completed this study and underwent TMS across five sessions in a randomized order. In the motor cortex, participants showed a significant decrease in ISP under baclofen, but not in the other drug conditions. There were no drug-induced changes in ISP in the DLPFC and baseline ISP did not differ across experimental sessions for both brain regions. Together, our results suggest that the inhibitory effects observed with interhemispheric signal transmission are mediated by a population of interneurons involving GABA B receptor neurotransmission. Inhibitory mechanisms of ISP may be more salient for motor-related functions in the motor cortex than for cognitive control in the DLPFC. These findings are a fundamental step in advancing our understanding of interhemispheric connectivity and may be used to identify treatments for disorders in which transcallosal transmission is dysfunctional.",2020,"In the motor cortex, participants showed a significant decrease in ISP under baclofen, but not in the other drug conditions.",['Twelve right-handed healthy volunteers'],"['baclofen, L-DOPA, dextromethorphan, and rivastigmine', 'TMS', 'transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS)-induced interhemispheric signal propagation (ISP']","['ISP under baclofen', 'ISP']","[{'cui': 'C0344333', 'cui_str': 'Right handed (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C1708335', 'cui_str': 'Healthy Participants'}]","[{'cui': 'C0004609', 'cui_str': 'Baclofen'}, {'cui': 'C0023570', 'cui_str': 'Levodopa'}, {'cui': 'C0011816', 'cui_str': 'Dextromethorphan'}, {'cui': 'C0649350', 'cui_str': 'rivastigmine'}, {'cui': 'C0436548', 'cui_str': 'Transcranial magnetic stimulation (procedure)'}, {'cui': 'C0205263', 'cui_str': 'Induced (qualifier value)'}]","[{'cui': 'C0004609', 'cui_str': 'Baclofen'}]",12.0,0.0545946,"In the motor cortex, participants showed a significant decrease in ISP under baclofen, but not in the other drug conditions.","[{'ForeName': 'Jeanette', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Hui', 'Affiliation': 'Temerty Centre for Therapeutic Brain Intervention, Centre for Addiction and Mental Health, Toronto, ON, Canada.'}, {'ForeName': 'Reza', 'Initials': 'R', 'LastName': 'Zomorrodi', 'Affiliation': 'Temerty Centre for Therapeutic Brain Intervention, Centre for Addiction and Mental Health, Toronto, ON, Canada.'}, {'ForeName': 'Pantelis', 'Initials': 'P', 'LastName': 'Lioumis', 'Affiliation': 'Temerty Centre for Therapeutic Brain Intervention, Centre for Addiction and Mental Health, Toronto, ON, Canada.'}, {'ForeName': 'Bahar', 'Initials': 'B', 'LastName': 'Salavati', 'Affiliation': 'Institute of Medical Science, University of Toronto, Toronto, ON, Canada.'}, {'ForeName': 'Tarek K', 'Initials': 'TK', 'LastName': 'Rajji', 'Affiliation': 'Temerty Centre for Therapeutic Brain Intervention, Centre for Addiction and Mental Health, Toronto, ON, Canada.'}, {'ForeName': 'Robert', 'Initials': 'R', 'LastName': 'Chen', 'Affiliation': 'Institute of Medical Science, University of Toronto, Toronto, ON, Canada.'}, {'ForeName': 'Daniel M', 'Initials': 'DM', 'LastName': 'Blumberger', 'Affiliation': 'Temerty Centre for Therapeutic Brain Intervention, Centre for Addiction and Mental Health, Toronto, ON, Canada.'}, {'ForeName': 'Zafiris J', 'Initials': 'ZJ', 'LastName': 'Daskalakis', 'Affiliation': 'Temerty Centre for Therapeutic Brain Intervention, Centre for Addiction and Mental Health, Toronto, ON, Canada.

308,32092760,Modulation of the antidepressant effects of ketamine by the mTORC1 inhibitor rapamycin.,"Twenty-four hours after administration, ketamine exerts rapid and robust antidepressant effects that are thought to be mediated by activation of the mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1). To test this hypothesis, depressed patients were pretreated with rapamycin, an mTORC1 inhibitor, prior to receiving ketamine. Twenty patients suffering a major depressive episode were randomized to pretreatment with oral rapamycin (6 mg) or placebo 2 h prior to the intravenous administration of ketamine 0.5 mg/kg in a double-blind cross-over design with treatment days separated by at least 2 weeks. Depression severity was assessed using Montgomery-Åsberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS). Rapamycin pretreatment did not alter the antidepressant effects of ketamine at the 24-h timepoint. Over the subsequent 2-weeks, we found a significant treatment by time interaction (F (8,245) = 2.02, p = 0.04), suggesting a prolongation of the antidepressant effects of ketamine by rapamycin. Two weeks following ketamine administration, we found higher response (41%) and remission rates (29%) following rapamycin + ketamine compared to placebo + ketamine (13%, p = 0.04, and 7%, p = 0.003, respectively). In summary, single dose rapamycin pretreatment failed to block the antidepressant effects of ketamine, but it prolonged ketamine's antidepressant effects. This observation raises questions about the role of systemic vs. local blockade of mTORC1 in the antidepressant effects of ketamine, provides preliminary evidence that rapamycin may extend the benefits of ketamine, and thereby potentially sheds light on mechanisms that contribute to depression relapse after ketamine administration.",2020,"Two weeks following ketamine administration, we found higher response (41%) and remission rates (29%) following rapamycin + ketamine compared to placebo + ketamine (13%, p = 0.04, and 7%, p = 0.003, respectively).",['Twenty patients suffering a major depressive episode'],"['rapamycin\u2009+\u2009ketamine', 'placebo', 'ketamine', 'Rapamycin', 'rapamycin', 'placebo\u2009+\u2009ketamine', 'rapamycin, an mTORC1 inhibitor, prior to receiving ketamine', 'oral rapamycin']","['remission rates', 'Montgomery-Åsberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS', 'Depression severity']","[{'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C0205082', 'cui_str': 'Severe (severity modifier) (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0349217', 'cui_str': 'Depressive episode'}]","[{'cui': 'C0072980', 'cui_str': 'Sirolimus'}, {'cui': 'C0022614', 'cui_str': 'Ketamine'}, {'cui': 'C1696465', 'cui_str': 'placebo'}, {'cui': 'C3888046', 'cui_str': 'mTORC1 Complex'}, {'cui': 'C0243077', 'cui_str': 'inhibitors'}, {'cui': 'C0332152', 'cui_str': 'Before (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C4521986', 'cui_str': 'Oral (intended site)'}]","[{'cui': 'C0544452', 'cui_str': 'Remission phase (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C2960593', 'cui_str': 'Montgomery-Åsberg depression rating scale'}, {'cui': 'C0011581', 'cui_str': 'Neurosis, Depressive'}, {'cui': 'C0439793', 'cui_str': 'Severity (attribute)'}]",,0.0810233,"Two weeks following ketamine administration, we found higher response (41%) and remission rates (29%) following rapamycin + ketamine compared to placebo + ketamine (13%, p = 0.04, and 7%, p = 0.003, respectively).","[{'ForeName': 'Chadi G', 'Initials': 'CG', 'LastName': 'Abdallah', 'Affiliation': 'National Center for PTSD - Clinical Neurosciences Division, US Department of Veterans Affairs, West Haven, CT, USA. chadi.abdallah@yale.edu.'}, {'ForeName': 'Lynnette A', 'Initials': 'LA', 'LastName': 'Averill', 'Affiliation': 'National Center for PTSD - Clinical Neurosciences Division, US Department of Veterans Affairs, West Haven, CT, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Ralitza', 'Initials': 'R', 'LastName': 'Gueorguieva', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Biostatistics, Yale University School of Public Health, New Haven, CT, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Selin', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Goktas', 'Affiliation': 'National Center for PTSD - Clinical Neurosciences Division, US Department of Veterans Affairs, West Haven, CT, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Prerana', 'Initials': 'P', 'LastName': 'Purohit', 'Affiliation': 'National Center for PTSD - Clinical Neurosciences Division, US Department of Veterans Affairs, West Haven, CT, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Mohini', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Ranganathan', 'Affiliation': 'Departments of Psychiatry, Neuroscience, and Psychology Yale University, New Haven, CT, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Mohamed', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Sherif', 'Affiliation': 'Departments of Psychiatry, Neuroscience, and Psychology Yale University, New Haven, CT, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Kyung-Heup', 'Initials': 'KH', 'LastName': 'Ahn', 'Affiliation': 'Departments of Psychiatry, Neuroscience, and Psychology Yale University, New Haven, CT, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Deepak Cyril', 'Initials': 'DC', 'LastName': ""D'Souza"", 'Affiliation': 'Departments of Psychiatry, Neuroscience, and Psychology Yale University, New Haven, CT, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Richard', 'Initials': 'R', 'LastName': 'Formica', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Internal Medicine, Yale University School of Medicine, New Haven, CT, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Steven M', 'Initials': 'SM', 'LastName': 'Southwick', 'Affiliation': 'National Center for PTSD - Clinical Neurosciences Division, US Department of Veterans Affairs, West Haven, CT, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Ronald S', 'Initials': 'RS', 'LastName': 'Duman', 'Affiliation': 'National Center for PTSD - Clinical Neurosciences Division, US Department of Veterans Affairs, West Haven, CT, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Gerard', 'Initials': 'G', 'LastName': 'Sanacora', 'Affiliation': 'National Center for PTSD - Clinical Neurosciences Division, US Department of Veterans Affairs, West Haven, CT, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'John H', 'Initials': 'JH', 'LastName': 'Krystal', 'Affiliation': 'National Center for PTSD - Clinical Neurosciences Division, US Department of Veterans Affairs, West Haven, CT, USA.'}]",Neuropsychopharmacology : official publication of the American College of Neuropsychopharmacology,['10.1038/s41386-020-0644-9']
309,31889508,Impact of Daily Preventive Zinc or Therapeutic Zinc Supplementation for Diarrhea on Plasma Biomarkers of Environmental Enteric Dysfunction among Rural Laotian Children: A Randomized Controlled Trial.,"Environmental enteric dysfunction (EED) may be ameliorated by zinc supplementation. The objective of this study was to investigate the impact of different forms of zinc supplementation on biomarkers of EED (i.e., plasma citrulline, kynurenine, and tryptophan concentrations and the kynurenine:tryptophan [KT] ratio) among young Laotian children. In a double-blind randomized controlled trial, 3,407 children aged 6-23 months were randomized into one of four groups: daily preventive zinc dispersible tablets (PZ; 7 mg zinc), daily multiple micronutrient powders (MNP; 10 mg zinc, 6 mg iron, and 13 other micronutrients), therapeutic zinc supplements for diarrhea treatment (TZ; 20 mg/day for 10 days), or daily placebo powder, and followed up for ∼36 weeks. Plasma samples at baseline and endline for 359 children were analyzed for citrulline, kynurenine, and tryptophan concentrations. At baseline, the prevalence of stunting and zinc deficiency was 37% and 76.5%, respectively.

310,32321767,Quality of life of locally advanced cervical cancer patients after neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by chemoradiation versus chemoradiation alone (CIRCE trial): a randomized phase II trial.,"OBJECTIVE
The CIRCE trial (NCT01973101) investigated the efficacy, safety, and quality of life of the addition of neoadjuvant chemotherapy with cisplatin and gemcitabine to standard chemoradiation for locally advanced cervical cancer (stages IIB-IVA). The impact of both treatment arms on quality of life is reported in the present study.
METHODS
Patients completed the European Organization of Research and Treatment of Cancer questionnaire QLQ-C30 and CX24 before treatment and at 3, 6, 9, and 12 months after treatment. Linear mixed models were fitted to analyze differences in quality of life over time and between groups. Differences in mean quality of life scales >10 points and p<0.05 were considered clinically relevant and statistically significant, respectively. Inclusion criteria were: (1) histological diagnosis of locally advanced invasive carcinoma of the uterine cervix, International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics stages IIB-IVA; (2) signed informed consent to participate in the CIRCE trial; and (3) answered at least one quality of life questionnaire. Excluded were patients who did not complete any quality of life questionnaire. Relevant exclusion criteria for the CIRCE trial included Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status >2 and peripheral neuropathy >2. Mann-Whitney U tests were performed to assess differences between groups in quality of life at baseline. To evaluate differences between treatment arms, linear mixed models were fitted using the transformed quality of life scores as a dependent variable and time of follow-up and study arm as factors.
RESULTS
A total of 107 patients were enrolled (n=55 neoadjuvant chemotherapy arm; n=52 chemoradiation arm). Quality of life compliance rates were higher for the chemoradiation group at every assessment time (ranging from 75-86.5% in the chemoradiation arm vs 55-81.8% in the neoadjuvant chemotherapy arm). For quality of life results at baseline, no statistically significant difference between the groups was seen. For both groups, most scales showed improvements over time, except for worsening of the summary score, sexual enjoyment, peripheral neuropathy, and menopausal symptoms. For chemoradiation, body image was lower (p<0.001) and patients presented more lymphedema (p<0.001) and sexual worry (p<0.001) at 12 months compared with baseline. Comparing study arms, neoadjuvant chemotherapy showed significantly lower scores in the menopausal symptoms scale (p=0.03) and higher scores for sexual/vaginal functioning (p=0.01). At 12 months, clinical differences were seen only for body image and menopausal symptoms scale, with neoadjuvant chemotherapy presenting better body image scores and a lower burden of menopausal symptoms.
CONCLUSION
After treatment for locally advanced cervical cancer, patients improved in most quality of life aspects. However, worsening was observed in sexual enjoyment, peripheral neuropathy, and menopausal symptoms. To improve patients' quality of life, efforts should be made to prevent and treat these long term effects of locally advanced cervical cancer treatment.",2020,"Comparing study arms, neoadjuvant

311,32097252,Outcomes of Three- Versus Six-Monthly Dispensing of Antiretroviral Treatment (ART) for Stable HIV Patients in Community ART Refill Groups: A Cluster-Randomized Trial in Zimbabwe.,"INTRODUCTION
Multimonth dispensing (MMD) of antiretroviral treatment (ART) aims to reduce patient-related barriers to access long-term treatment and improve health system efficiency. However, randomized evidence of its clinical effectiveness is lacking. We compared MMD within community ART refill groups (CARGs) vs. standard-of-care facility-based ART delivery in Zimbabwe.
METHODS
A three-arm, cluster-randomized, pragmatic noninferiority trial was performed. Thirty health care facilities and associated CARGs were allocated to either ART collected three-monthly at facility (3MF, control); ART delivered three-monthly in CARGs (3MC); or ART delivered six-monthly in CARGs (6MC). Stable adults receiving ART ≥six months with baseline viral load (VL) <1000 copies/ml were eligible. Retention in ART care (primary outcome) and viral suppression (VS) 12 months after enrollment were compared, using regression models specified for clustering (ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT03238846).
RESULTS
4800 participants were recruited, 1919, 1335, and 1546 in arms 3MF, 3MC, and 6MC, respectively. For retention, the prespecified noninferiority limit (-3.25%, risk difference [RD]) was met for comparisons between all arms, 3MC (94.8%) vs. 3MF (93.0%), adjusted RD = 1.1% (95% CI: -0.5% to 2.8%); 6MC (95.5%) vs. 3MF: aRD = 1.2% (95% CI: -1.0% to 3.6%); and 6MC vs. 3MC: aRD = 0.1% (95% CI: -2.4% to 2.6%). VL completion at 12 months was 49%, 45%, and 8% in 3MF, 3MC, and 6MC, respectively. VS in 3MC (99.7%) was high and not different to 3MF (99.1%), relative risk = 1.0 (95% CI: 1.0-1.0). VS was marginally reduced in 6MC (92.9%) vs. 3MF, relative risk = 0.9 (95% CI: 0.9-1.0).
CONCLUSION
Retention in CARGs receiving three- and six-monthly MMD was noninferior versus standard-of-care facility-based ART delivery. VS in 3MC was high.

313,32095393,Clinical Evaluation of an Off-the-Shelf Allogeneic Adipose Matrix for Soft Tissue Reconstruction.,"Biomaterials derived from human adipose extracellular matrix have shown promise in vitro and in animal studies as an off-the-shelf adipogenic matrix for sustained volume replacement. Herein, we report the results of a randomized prospective study conducted with allograft adipose matrix (AAM) grafted into the pannus of presurgical abdominoplasty patients 3 or 6 months before scheduled surgery. This is the first report of a longitudinal histologic analysis of AAM in clinical use.
Methods
Ten healthy patients undergoing elective abdominoplasty were recruited to receive AAM before surgery. Enrolled subjects were randomized into either a 3-month follow-up cohort or a 6-month follow-up cohort. Subjects were monitored for adverse events associated with AAM grafting in addition to undergoing serial biopsy. Following surgical excision of the pannus, representative samples from the AAM surgical sites were stained and evaluated with hematoxylin and eosin for tissue morphology, Masson's trichrome for collagen, and perilipin for adipocytes.
Results
All subjects tolerated AAM with no severe adverse events reported. At 3 months following implantation, AAM remained visible within the confines of the subjects' native surrounding adipose tissue with sparse adipocytes apparent within the matrix. By 6 months, AAM had remodeled and was primarily composed of perilipin-positive adipocytes.

314,32320846,Proactive health support (PaHS) - telephone-based self-management support for persons at risk of hospital admission: Study protocol for a randomized controlled trial.,"BACKGROUND
A small proportion of patients account for most of the healthcare costs. Previous studies of supportive interventions have several methodological limitations and results are mixed. This article describes the protocol for Proactive Health Support: a national randomized controlled trial of telephone-based self-management support (ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT03628469). The main aim of the intervention is to reduce hospital admissions and improve quality of life at six months.
METHODS
A sample size of 4400 is needed and individuals with the highest risk of hospital admission in Denmark are invited by electronic communication and telephone to participate in a 1:1 randomized controlled trial. The intervention group receives one face-to-face start-up session followed by telephone sessions about individual goals regarding participants' knowledge, coping and need of healthcare. Quality of life was assessed with the mental health composite score of the SF-36v2 questionnaire. Primary analyses are done using the intention-to-treat principle.
DISCUSSION
The trial has been approved by The Regional Committee on Health Research Ethics (SJ-677). Intervention nurses do not assume clinical responsibility for the participants and the intervention is an addition to the general healthcare services. The intervention is complex due to challenging skills and behaviors required by nurses, individual tailoring of the intervention, and interacting intervention components. The study therefore includes process evaluation. The research program comprises: 1. Development initiation, 2. Intervention effect, 3. Cost-effectiveness, 4. Organizational implementation, and 5. Participants' experiences. Inclusion to the trial began April 9th, 2018, was completed July 1st, 2019 and follow-up will be completed February 1st, 2020.",2020,"This article describes the protocol for Proactive Health Support: a national randomized controlled trial of telephone-based self-management support (ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT03628469).","['persons at risk of hospital admission', ""Participants' experiences""]","[""intervention group receives one face-to-face start-up session followed by telephone sessions about individual goals regarding participants' knowledge, coping and need of healthcare"", 'Proactive health support (PaHS) - telephone-based self-management support']","['Cost-effectiveness', 'mental health composite score of the SF-36v2 questionnaire', 'Quality of life', 'hospital admissions and improve quality of life']","[{'cui': 'C0027361', 'cui_str': 'Person'}, {'cui': 'C1444641', 'cui_str': 'At risk'}, {'cui': 'C0184666', 'cui_str': 'Hospital admission'}, {'cui': 'C0023672', 'cui_str': 'Life Experiences'}]","[{'cui': 'C0184661', 'cui_str': 'Procedure'}, {'cui': 'C0439745', 'cui_str': 'Grouped'}, {'cui': 'C0015450', 'cui_str': 'Face structure'}, {'cui': 'C0439659', 'cui_str': 'Origins'}, {'cui': 'C0332282', 'cui_str': 'Following'}, {'cui': 'C0039457', 'cui_str': 'Telephone'}, {'cui': 'C0027361', 'cui_str': 'Person'}, {'cui': 'C0018017', 'cui_str': 'Goal'}, {'cui': 'C0376554', 'cui_str': 'Knowledge'}, {'cui': 'C0009967', 'cui_str': 'Coping behavior'}, {'cui': 'C0027552', 'cui_str': 'Needed'}, {'cui': 'C0086388', 'cui_str': 'Healthcare'}, {'cui': 'C0018684', 'cui_str': 'Health'}, {'cui': 'C0183683', 'cui_str': 'Support'}, {'cui': 'C0002055', 'cui_str': 'Alkali'}, {'cui': 'C0086969', 'cui_str': 'Self Management'}]","[{'cui': 'C0010181', 'cui_str': 'Cost Effectiveness'}, {'cui': 'C0025353', 'cui_str': 'Mental Hygiene'}, {'cui': 'C0205199', 'cui_str': 'Composite'}, {'cui': 'C0449820', 'cui_str': 'Score'}, {'cui': 'C0034394', 'cui_str': 'Questionnaires'}, {'cui': 'C0518214', 'cui_str': 'Quality of life satisfaction'}, {'cui': 'C0184666', 'cui_str': 'Hospital admission'}, {'cui': 'C0184511', 'cui_str': 'Improved'}]",,0.110494,"This article describes the protocol for Proactive Health Support: a national randomized controlled trial of telephone-based self-management support (ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT03628469).","[{'ForeName': 'Kirstine Skov', 'Initials': 'KS', 'LastName': 'Benthien', 'Affiliation': 'Center for Clinical Research and Prevention, Bispebjerg and Frederiksberg Hospital, Copenhagen, Denmark.

315,32015556,Combination anti-HIV-1 antibody therapy is associated with increased virus-specific T cell immunity.,"Combination antiretroviral therapy (ART) is highly effective in controlling human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-1 but requires lifelong medication due to the existence of a latent viral reservoir 1,2 . Potent broadly neutralizing antibodies (bNAbs) represent a potential alternative or adjuvant to ART. In addition to suppressing viremia, bNAbs may have T cell immunomodulatory effects as seen for other forms of immunotherapy 3 . However, this has not been established in individuals who are infected with HIV-1. Here, we document increased HIV-1 Gag-specific CD8 + T cell responses in the peripheral blood of all nine study participants who were infected with HIV-1 with suppressed blood viremia, while receiving bNAb therapy during ART interruption 4 . Increased CD4 + T cell responses were detected in eight individuals. The increased T cell responses were due both to newly detectable reactivity to HIV-1 Gag epitopes and the expansion of pre-existing measurable responses. These data demonstrate that bNAb therapy during ART interruption is associated with enhanced HIV-1-specific T cell responses. Whether these augmented T cell responses can contribute to bNAb-mediated viral control remains to be determined.",2020,"Here, we document increased HIV-1 Gag-specific CD8 + T cell responses in the peripheral blood of all nine study participants who were infected with HIV-1 with suppressed blood viremia, while receiving bNAb therapy during ART interruption 4 .","['peripheral blood of all nine study participants who were infected with HIV-1 with suppressed blood viremia, while receiving bNAb therapy during ART interruption 4 ', 'individuals who are infected with HIV-1']","['Combination antiretroviral therapy (ART', 'Combination anti-HIV-1 antibody therapy']","['Increased CD4 + T cell responses', 'HIV-1-specific T cell responses', 'increased T cell responses', 'HIV-1 Gag-specific CD8 + T cell responses']","[{'cui': 'C0229664', 'cui_str': 'Peripheral blood'}, {'cui': 'C0008972', 'cui_str': 'Clinical Study'}, {'cui': 'C0019704', 'cui_str': 'Human immunodeficiency virus type I'}, {'cui': 'C1260953', 'cui_str': 'Suppressed'}, {'cui': 'C0005767', 'cui_str': 'Blood'}, {'cui': 'C0042749', 'cui_str': 'Viremia'}, {'cui': 'C0013216', 'cui_str': 'Drug therapy'}, {'cui': 'C1963724', 'cui_str': 'Antiretroviral therapy'}, {'cui': 'C0332453', 'cui_str': 'Disruption'}, {'cui': 'C0027361', 'cui_str': 'Person'}]","[{'cui': 'C1963724', 'cui_str': 'Antiretroviral therapy'}, {'cui': 'C0369497', 'cui_str': 'Human immunodeficiency virus type 1 antibody'}, {'cui': 'C0013216', 'cui_str': 'Drug therapy'}]","[{'cui': 'C0205217', 'cui_str': 'Increased'}, {'cui': 'C0003323', 'cui_str': 'Lymphocyte antigen CD4'}, {'cui': 'C0039194', 'cui_str': 'T lymphocyte'}, {'cui': 'C0019704', 'cui_str': 'Human immunodeficiency virus type I'}, {'cui': 'C0205369', 'cui_str': 'Specific'}, {'cui': 'C0016927', 'cui_str': 'Gagging'}, {'cui': 'C0242629', 'cui_str': 'Lymphocyte positive for CD8 antigen'}]",9.0,0.0411462,"Here, we document increased HIV-1 Gag-specific CD8 + T cell responses in the peripheral blood of all nine study participants who were infected with HIV-1 with suppressed blood viremia, while receiving bNAb therapy during ART interruption 4 .","[{'ForeName': 'Julia', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Niessl', 'Affiliation': ""Research Centre of the Centre Hospitalier de l'Université de Montréal (CRCHUM), Montreal, QC, Canada.""}, {'ForeName': 'Amy E', 'Initials': 'AE', 'LastName': 'Baxter', 'Affiliation': ""Research Centre of the Centre Hospitalier de l'Université de Montréal (CRCHUM), Montreal, QC, Canada.""}, {'ForeName': 'Pilar', 'Initials': 'P', 'LastName': 'Mendoza', 'Affiliation': 'Laboratory of Molecular Immunology, The Rockefeller University, New York, NY, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Mila', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Jankovic', 'Affiliation': 'Laboratory of Molecular Immunology, The Rockefeller University, New York, NY, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Yehuda Z', 'Initials': 'YZ', 'LastName': 'Cohen', 'Affiliation': 'Laboratory of Molecular Immunology, The Rockefeller University, New York, NY, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Allison L', 'Initials': 'AL', 'LastName': 'Butler', 'Affiliation': 'Laboratory of Molecular Immunology, The Rockefeller University, New York, NY, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Ching-Lan', 'Initials': 'CL', 'LastName': 'Lu', 'Affiliation': 'Laboratory of Molecular Immunology, The Rockefeller University, New York, NY, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Mathieu', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Dubé', 'Affiliation': ""Research Centre of the Centre Hospitalier de l'Université de Montréal (CRCHUM), Montreal, QC, Canada.""}, {'ForeName': 'Irina', 'Initials': 'I', 'LastName': 'Shimeliovich', 'Affiliation': 'Laboratory of Molecular Immunology, The Rockefeller University, New York, NY, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Henning', 'Initials': 'H', 'LastName': 'Gruell', 'Affiliation': 'Laboratory of Experimental Immunology, Institute of Virology, Faculty of Medicine and University Hospital Cologne, University of Cologne, Cologne, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Florian', 'Initials': 'F', 'LastName': 'Klein', 'Affiliation': 'Laboratory of Experimental Immunology, Institute of Virology, Faculty of Medicine and University Hospital Cologne, University of Cologne, Cologne, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Marina', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Caskey', 'Affiliation': 'Laboratory of Molecular Immunology, The Rockefeller University, New York, NY, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Michel C', 'Initials': 'MC', 'LastName': 'Nussenzweig', 'Affiliation': 'Laboratory of Molecular Immunology, The Rockefeller University, New York, NY, USA. nussen@mail.rockefeller.edu.'}, {'ForeName': 'Daniel E', 'Initials': 'DE', 'LastName': 'Kaufmann', 'Affiliation': ""Research Centre of the Centre Hospitalier de l'Université de Montréal (CRCHUM), Montreal, QC, Canada. daniel.kaufmann@umontreal.ca.""}]",Nature medicine,['10.1038/s41591-019-0747-1']
316,32053828,Global connectivity and local excitability changes underlie antidepressant effects of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation.,"Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) is a commonly- used treatment for major depressive disorder (MDD). However, our understanding of the mechanism by which TMS exerts its antidepressant effect is minimal. Furthermore, we lack brain signals that can be used to predict and track clinical outcome. Such signals would allow for treatment stratification and optimization. Here, we performed a randomized, sham-controlled clinical trial and measured electrophysiological, neuroimaging, and clinical changes before and after rTMS. Patients (N = 36) were randomized to receive either active or sham rTMS to the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (dlPFC) for 20 consecutive weekdays. To capture the rTMS-driven changes in connectivity and causal excitability, resting fMRI and TMS/EEG were performed before and after the treatment. Baseline causal connectivity differences between depressed patients and healthy controls were also evaluated with concurrent TMS/fMRI. We found that active, but not sham rTMS elicited (1) an increase in dlPFC global connectivity, (2) induction of negative dlPFC-amygdala connectivity, and (3) local and distributed changes in TMS/EEG potentials. Global connectivity changes predicted clinical outcome, while both global connectivity and TMS/EEG changes tracked clinical outcome. In patients but not healthy participants, we observed a perturbed inhibitory effect of the dlPFC on the amygdala. Taken together, rTMS induced lasting connectivity and excitability changes from the site of stimulation, such that after active treatment, the dlPFC appeared better able to engage in top-down control of the amygdala. These measures of network functioning both predicted and tracked clinical outcome, potentially opening the door to treatment optimization.",2020,Patients (N = 36) were randomized to receive either

317,31086274,The effect of paired corticospinal-motoneuronal stimulation on maximal voluntary elbow flexion in cervical spinal cord injury: an experimental study.,"STUDY DESIGN
Randomised, controlled, crossover study.
OBJECTIVES
Paired corticospinal-motoneuronal stimulation (PCMS) involves repeatedly pairing stimuli to corticospinal neurones and motoneurones to induce changes in corticospinal transmission. Here, we examined whether PCMS could enhance maximal voluntary elbow flexion in people with cervical spinal cord injury.
SETTING
Neuroscience Research Australia, Sydney, Australia.
METHODS
PCMS comprised 100 pairs of transcranial magnetic and electrical peripheral nerve stimulation (0.1 Hz), timed so corticospinal potentials arrived at corticospinal-motoneuronal synapses 1.5 ms before antidromic motoneuronal potentials. On two separate days, sets of five maximal elbow flexions were performed by 11 individuals with weak elbow flexors post C4 or C5 spinal cord injury before and after PCMS or control (100 peripheral nerve stimuli) conditioning. During contractions, supramaximal biceps brachii stimulation elicited superimposed twitches, which were expressed as a proportion of resting twitches to give maximal voluntary activation. Maximal torque and electromyographic activity were also assessed.
RESULTS
Baseline median (range) maximal torque was 11 Nm (6-41 Nm) and voluntary activation was 92% (62-99%). Linear mixed modelling revealed no significant differences between PCMS and control protocols after conditioning (maximal torque: p = 0.87, superimposed twitch: p = 0.87, resting twitch: p = 0.44, voluntary activation: p = 0.36, biceps EMG: p = 0.25, brachioradialis EMG: 0.67).
CONCLUSIONS

Several antiretroviral drugs are being considered for the treatment of COVID-19, the disease caused by a newly identified coronavirus, (SARS-CoV-2). We systematically reviewed the clinical outcomes of using antiretroviral drugs for the prevention and treatment of coronaviruses and planned clinical trials.
METHODS
Three databases were screened from inception to 30 March 2020 for studies reporting clinical outcomes of patients with SARS, MERS or COVID-19 treated with antiretrovirals.
RESULTS
From an initial screen of 433 titles, two randomized trials and 24 observational studies provided clinical outcome data on the use of antiretroviral drugs; most studies reported outcomes using LPV/r as treatment. Of the 21 observational studies reporting treatment outcomes, there were three studies among patients with SARS, six studies among patients with MERS and 12 studies among patients with COVID-19. In one randomized trial 99 patients with severe COVID-19 illness were randomized to receive LPV/r (400/100 mg twice a day) and 100 patients to standard of care for 14 days: LPV/r was not associated with a statistically significant difference in time to clinical improvement, although LPV/r given within 12 days of symptoms was associated with shorter time to clinical improvement; 28 day mortality was numerically lower in the LPV/r group (14/99) compared to the control group (25/100), but this difference was not statistically significant. The second trial found no benefit. The certainty of the evidence for the randomized trials was low. In the observational studies 3 out of 361 patients who received LPV/r died; the certainty of evidence was very low. Three studies reported a possible protective effect of LPV/r as post-exposure prophylaxis. Again, the certainty of the evidence was very low due to uncertainty due to limited sample size.
CONCLUSIONS
On the basis of the available evidence it is uncertain whether LPV/r and other antiretrovirals improve clinical outcomes or prevent infection among patients at high risk of acquiring COVID-19.",2020,"LPV/r was not associated with a statistically significant difference in time to clinical improvement, although LPV/r given within 12 days of symptoms was associated with shorter time to clinical improvement; 28 day mortality was numerically lower in the LPV/r group (14/99) compared to the control group (25/100), but this difference was not statistically significant.","['Three databases were screened from inception to 30 March 2020 for studies reporting clinical outcomes of patients with SARS, MERS or COVID-19 treated with antiretrovirals', '99 patients with severe COVID-19 illness', '361 patients who received LPV/r died', '100 patients to standard of care for 14\xa0days']",['LPV/r (400/100'],['shorter time to clinical improvement; 28\xa0day mortality'],"[{'cui': 'C0993637', 'cui_str': 'Data Base'}, {'cui': 'C0199230', 'cui_str': 'Screening for cancer'}, {'cui': 'C1856053', 'cui_str': 'Hydranencephaly with Renal Aplasia-Dysplasia'}, {'cui': 'C0008972', 'cui_str': 'Clinical Study'}, {'cui': 'C0684224', 'cui_str': 'Report'}, {'cui': 'C0205210', 'cui_str': 'Clinical'}, {'cui': 'C1274040', 'cui_str': 'Result'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patient'}, {'cui': 'C0065973', 'cui_str': 'methanol extraction residue (MER) tubercle bacillus fraction'}, {'cui': 'TS-COV19', 'cui_str': 'COVID-19'}, {'cui': 'C0332293', 'cui_str': 'Treated with'}, {'cui': 'C0599685', 'cui_str': 'Antiretroviral-containing product'}, {'cui': 'C0205082', 'cui_str': 'Severe'}, {'cui': 'C0221423', 'cui_str': 'Illness'}, {'cui': 'C0011065', 'cui_str': 'Death'}, {'cui': 'C1704407', 'cui_str': '100'}, {'cui': 'C2936643', 'cui_str': 'Standards of Care'}, {'cui': 'C0332173', 'cui_str': 'Daily'}]",[],"[{'cui': 'C0453933', 'cui_str': 'Shorts'}, {'cui': 'C0040223', 'cui_str': 'Time'}, {'cui': 'C0205210', 'cui_str': 'Clinical'}, {'cui': 'C0332173', 'cui_str': 'Daily'}, {'cui': 'C0026565', 'cui_str': 'Mortality rate'}]",3.0,0.147421,"LPV/r was not associated with a statistically significant difference in time to clinical improvement, although LPV/r given within 12 days of symptoms was associated with shorter time to clinical improvement; 28 day mortality was numerically lower in the LPV/r group (14/99) compared to the control group (25/100), but this difference was not statistically significant.","[{'ForeName': 'Nathan', 'Initials': 'N', 'LastName': 'Ford', 'Affiliation': 'Department of HIV, Hepatitis and Sexually Transmitted Infections, World Health Organization, Geneva, Switzerland.'}, {'ForeName': 'Marco', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Vitoria', 'Affiliation': 'Department of HIV, Hepatitis and Sexually Transmitted Infections, World Health Organization, Geneva, Switzerland.'}, {'ForeName': 'Ajay', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Rangaraj', 'Affiliation': 'Department of HIV, Hepatitis and Sexually Transmitted Infections, World Health Organization, Geneva, Switzerland.'}, {'ForeName': 'Susan L', 'Initials': 'SL', 'LastName': 'Norris', 'Affiliation': 'Science Division, Quality of Norms and Standards Department, World Health Organization, Geneva, Switzerland.'}, {'ForeName': 'Alexandra', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Calmy', 'Affiliation': 'HIV/AIDS Unit, Division of Infectious Diseases, Geneva University Hospitals, Geneva, Switzerland.'}, {'ForeName': 'Meg', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Doherty', 'Affiliation': 'Department of HIV, Hepatitis and Sexually Transmitted Infections, World Health Organization, Geneva, Switzerland.'}]",Journal of the International AIDS Society,['10.1002/jia2.25489']

A total of 150 villages were randomized into six treatment arms (25 villages per arm), were assessed at baseline, and received two or four rounds of MDA using community-wide (CWT) or school-based (SBT) treatment over 4 years. In the fifth year, a final evaluation was conducted. The primary outcomes were prevalence and intensity of Schistosoma mansoni infections in children aged 9-12 years, each year their village received MDA. Baseline and year 5 assessments of first-year students and adults were also performed. Using Poisson and negative binomial regression with generalized estimating equations, we found similar effects of CWT and SBT MDA treatment strategies in children aged 9-12 years: significant reductions of prevalence of infection in all arms and of heavy-intensity (≥ 400 eggs/gram) infections in most arms but no significant differences between arms. Combined arms of villages that received four rounds of treatment had greater reduction than villages in arms that only received two rounds of treatment.

320,31806653,"Within-Trial Evaluation of Medical Resources, Costs, and Quality of Life Among Patients With Type 2 Diabetes Participating in the Exenatide Study of Cardiovascular Event Lowering (EXSCEL).","OBJECTIVE
To compare medical resource use, costs, and health utilities for 14,752 patients with type 2 diabetes who were randomized to once-weekly exenatide (EQW) or placebo in addition to usual diabetes care in the Exenatide Study of Cardiovascular Event Lowering (EXSCEL).
RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS
Medical resource use data and responses to the EuroQol 5-Dimension (EQ-5D) instrument were collected at baseline and throughout the trial. Medical resources and medications were assigned values by using U.S. Medicare payments and wholesale acquisition costs, respectively. Secondary analyses used English costs.
RESULTS
Patients were followed for an average of 3.3 years, during which time those randomized to EQW experienced 0.41 fewer inpatient days (7.05 vs. 7.46 days; relative rate ratio 0.91; P = 0.05). Rates of outpatient medical visits were similar, as were total inpatient and outpatient costs. Mean costs for nonstudy diabetes medications over the study period were ∼$1,600 lower with EQW than with placebo ( P = 0.01). Total within-study costs, excluding study medication, were lower in the EQW arm than in the placebo arm ($28,907 vs. $30,914; P ≤ 0.01). When including the estimated cost of EQW, total mean costs were significantly higher in the EQW group than in the placebo group ($42,697 vs. $30,914; P < 0.01). With English costs applied, mean total costs, including exenatide costs, were £1,670 higher in the EQW group than the placebo group (£10,874 vs. £9,204; P < 0.01). There were no significant differences in EQ-5D health utilities between arms over time.
CONCLUSIONS
Medical costs were lower in the EQW arm than the placebo arm, but total costs were significantly higher once the cost of branded exenatide was incorporated.",2020,"There were no significant differences in EQ-5D health utilities between arms over time.

321,32315696,Testing the effects of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) on the face inversion effect and the N170 event-related potentials (ERPs) component.,"The following study investigates the effects of tDCS on face recognition skills indexed by the face inversion effect (better recognition performance for upright vs. inverted faces). We combined tDCS and EEG simultaneously to examine the effects of tDCS on the face inversion effect behaviourally and on the N170 ERPs component. The results from two experiments (overall N = 112) show that anodal tDCS delivered at Fp3 site for 10 min at 1.5 mA (double-blind and between-subjects) can reduce behaviourally the face inversion effect compared to sham (control) stimulation. The ERP results provide some evidence for tDCS being able to influence the face inversion effect on the N170. Specifically, we find a dissociation of the tDCS-induced effects where for the N170 latencies the tDCS reduces the usual face inversion effect (delayed N170 in response to inverted vs. upright faces) compared to sham. Contrarily, the same tDCS procedure on the same participants increased the inversion effect seen in the N170 amplitudes by making the negative deflection for the inverted faces that much greater than that for upright faces. We interpret our results in the context of the literature on the face inversion effect and the N170 peak component. In doing so, we extend our results to previous studies investigating the effects of tDCS on perceptual learning and face recognition.",2020,The following study investigates the effects of tDCS on face recognition skills indexed by the face inversion effect (better recognition performance for upright vs. inverted faces).,[],"['tDCS', 'transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS', 'anodal tDCS']",['perceptual learning and face recognition'],[],"[{'cui': 'C3850024', 'cui_str': 'tDCS'}]","[{'cui': 'C0013621', 'cui_str': 'Education'}, {'cui': 'C0015450', 'cui_str': 'Face structure'}, {'cui': 'C0524637', 'cui_str': 'Recognition'}]",,0.0243991,The following study investigates the effects of tDCS on face recognition skills indexed by the face inversion effect (better recognition performance for upright vs. inverted faces).,"[{'ForeName': 'Ciro', 'Initials': 'C', 'LastName': 'Civile', 'Affiliation': 'School of Psychology, College of Life and Environmental Sciences, University of Exeter, UK.

322,30997482,Sex-Related Differences in Brain Volumes and Cerebral Blood Flow Among Overweight and Obese Adults With Type 2 Diabetes: Exploratory Analyses From the Action for Health in Diabetes Brain Magnetic Resonance Imaging Study.,"BACKGROUND
Sex may be an important modifier of brain health in response to risk factors. We compared brain structure and function of older overweight and obese women and men with type 2 diabetes mellitus.
METHODS
Cross-sectional cognitive assessments and magnetic resonance images were obtained in 224 women and 95 men (mean age 69 years) with histories of type 2 diabetes mellitus and overweight or obesity. Prior to magnetic resonance images, participants had completed an average of 10 years of random assignment to either multidomain intervention targeting weight loss or a control condition of diabetes support and education. Total (summed gray and white) matter volumes, white matter hyperintensity volumes, and cerebral blood flow across five brain regions of interest were analyzed using mixed-effects models.
RESULTS
After covariate adjustment, women, compared with men, averaged 10.9 [95% confidence interval 3.3, 18.5; ≈1%] cc greater summed region of interest volumes and 1.39 [0.00002, 2.78; ≈54%] cc greater summed white matter hyperintensity volumes. Sex differences could not be attributed to risk factor profiles or intervention response. Their magnitude did not vary significantly with respect to age, body mass index, intervention assignment, or APOE-ε4 genotype. Sex differences in brain magnetic resonance images outcomes did not account for the better levels of cognitive functioning in women than men.
CONCLUSIONS

323,32316870,Cycling-based repeat sprint training in the heat enhances running performance in team sport players.,"Applying heat training interventions in a team sports setting remains challenging. This study investigated the effects of integrating short-term, repeat sprint heat training with passive heat exposure on running performance and general conditioning in team sport players. Thirty male club-level Australian Football players were assigned randomly to: Passive + Active Heat (PAH; n = 10), Active Heat (AH; n = 10) or Control (CON; n = 10) to complete 6 × 40 min high-intensity cycling training sessions over 12 days in 35°C (PAH and AH) or 18°C (CON), 50% RH in parallel with mid-season sports-specific training and games. Players in PAH were exposed to 20 min pre-exercise passive heat. Physiological adaptation and running capacity were assessed via a treadmill submaximal heat stress test followed by a time-to-exhaustion run in 35°C, 50% RH. Running capacity increased by 26% ± 8% PAH (0.88, ±0.23; standardised mean, ± 90% confidence limits), 29% ± 12% AH (1.23, ±0.45) and 10% ± 11% CON (0.45, ±0.48) compared with baseline. Both PAH (0.52, ±0.42; standardised mean, ± 90% confidence limits) and AH (0.35, ±0.57) conditions yielded a greater improvement in running capacity than CON. Physiological and perceptual measures remained relatively unchanged between baseline and post-intervention heat stress tests, within and between conditions. When thermal adaptation is not a direct priority, short-term, repeat effort high-intensity cycling in hot conditions combined with sports-specific training can further enhance running performance in team sport players. Six heat exposures across 12-days should improve running performance while minimising lower limb load and cumulative fatigue for team sports players. Highlights Short-duration high-intensity intermittent heat training can be successfully integrated with sport-specific training during the competitive season.When acquiring heat acclimation is not a direct priority, heat-based training offers a practical and time efficient method for enhancing aerobic conditioning in team sport players.In state-level team sport players, the perceived benefits of engaging heat training may complement increases in training load and possibly underlying thermal/physiological adaptations.Implementing a running-based performance trial either side of cycling-based heat training can evaluate the degree of transfer into a sports-specific environment.",2020,"Running capacity increased by 26 ± 8% PAH (0.88, ±0.23; standardised mean, ± 90% confidence limits), 29 ± 12% AH (1.23, ±0.45) and 10 ± 11% CON (0.45, ±0.48) compared with baseline.","['Thirty male club-level Australian Football players', 'team sport players']","['Passive\u2009+\u2009Active Heat (PAH; n=10), Active Heat (AH; n=10) or Control (CON; n=10) to complete 6\u2009×\u200940\u2005min high-intensity cycling training sessions over 12 days in 35°C (PAH and AH) or 18°C (CON), 50% RH in parallel with mid-season sports-specific training and games', 'heat training interventions', 'Cycling-based repeat sprint training', 'integrating short-term, repeat sprint heat training with passive heat exposure']","['Physiological and perceptual measures', 'running capacity', 'Running capacity', 'Physiological adaptation and running capacity']","[{'cui': 'C3816446', 'cui_str': '30'}, {'cui': 'C0086582', 'cui_str': 'Male'}, {'cui': 'C0149651', 'cui_str': 'Clubbing'}, {'cui': 'C0441889', 'cui_str': 'Levels'}, {'cui': 'C0016517', 'cui_str': 'American or Canadian football - sport'}, {'cui': 'C0038039', 'cui_str': 'Sport'}]","[{'cui': 'C0205177', 'cui_str': 'Active'}, {'cui': 'C0018837', 'cui_str': 'Heat'}, {'cui': 'C0009932', 'cui_str': 'Control Groups'}, {'cui': 'C0205197', 'cui_str': 'Complete'}, {'cui': 'C0439232', 'cui_str': 'min'}, {'cui': 'C4081854', 'cui_str': 'High intensity'}, {'cui': 'C0040607', 'cui_str': 'Training Programs'}, {'cui': 'C0332173', 'cui_str': 'Daily'}, {'cui': 'C0444598', 'cui_str': 'Mid'}, {'cui': 'C0036497', 'cui_str': 'Seasons'}, {'cui': 'C0038039', 'cui_str': 'Sport'}, {'cui': 'C0205369', 'cui_str': 'Specific'}, {'cui': 'C0184661', 'cui_str': 'Procedure'}, {'cui': 'C0002055', 'cui_str': 'Alkali'}, {'cui': 'C0205341', 'cui_str': 'Repeat'}, {'cui': 'C0454374', 'cui_str': 'Sprint training'}, {'cui': 'C0453933', 'cui_str': 'Shorts'}, {'cui': 'C0233324', 'cui_str': 'Term birth of newborn'}, {'cui': 'C0239930', 'cui_str': 'Heat exposure'}]","[{'cui': 'C0205463', 'cui_str': 'Physiologic'}, {'cui': 'C0079809', 'cui_str': 'Measure'}, {'cui': 'C0011991', 'cui_str': 'Diarrhea'}, {'cui': 'C0001400', 'cui_str': 'Adaptations, Physiological'}, {'cui': 'C0035953', 'cui_str': 'Running'}]",30.0,0.0436445,"Running capacity increased by 26 ± 8% PAH (0.88, ±0.23; standardised mean, ± 90% confidence limits), 29 ± 12% AH (1.23, ±0.45) and 10 ± 11% CON (0.45, ±0.48) compared with baseline.","[{'ForeName': 'Rachel M', 'Initials': 'RM', 'LastName': 'Gale', 'Affiliation': 'University of Canberra Research Institute for Sport and Exercise, University of Canberra, Bruce, Australia.'}, {'ForeName': 'Naroa', 'Initials': 'N', 'LastName': 'Etxebarria', 'Affiliation': 'University of Canberra Research Institute for Sport and Exercise, University of Canberra, Bruce, Australia.'}, {'ForeName': 'Kate L', 'Initials': 'KL', 'LastName': 'Pumpa', 'Affiliation': 'University of Canberra Research Institute for Sport and Exercise, University of Canberra, Bruce, Australia.'}, {'ForeName': 'David B', 'Initials': 'DB', 'LastName': 'Pyne', 'Affiliation': 'University of Canberra Research Institute for Sport and Exercise, University of Canberra, Bruce, Australia.'}]",European journal of sport science,['10.1080/17461391.2020.1759696']
324,32316014,Controlling Blood Pressure Under Transcranial Doppler Guidance after Endovascular Treatment in Patients with Acute Ischemic Stroke.,"OBJECTIVE
This study aimed to control blood pressure (BP) under transcranial Doppler (TCD) guidance in patients with anterior circulation acute ischemic stroke after endovascular treatment (EVT) to reduce the incidence of early neurological deterioration (END) and improve neurological prognosis.
METHODS
This prospective randomized controlled study included 95 patients who were randomly divided into a TCD-guided BP control (TBC) group and a non-TCD-guided BP control (NBC) group. The patients were monitored by TCD within 72 h after EVT. In the TBC group, BP decreased, BP increased, or intracranial pressure decreased when TCD showed blood flow acceleration, deceleration, or intracranial hypertension respectively. The BP of the NBC group was controlled according to the guidelines. The incidence of END and the prognosis was compared between the 2 groups.
RESULTS
TCD identified 18 patients with blood flow acceleration, but the prognosis of the 2 groups was not significantly different. TCD identified 23 patients with blood flow deceleration, and the poor prognosis rate at discharge was lower in the TBC group than in the NBC group (45.5 vs. 91.7%, p = 0.027). TCD identified 34 patients with intracranial hypertension, and the 3-month mortality rate of the TBC group was lower than that of the NBC group (0 vs. 36.8%, p = 0.011). The incidence rates of END and 3-month mortality in the TBC group were lower than those in the NBC group (13.8 vs. 37.5%, p = 0.036; 0 vs. 25.0%, p = 0.012) when TCD parameters were abnormal. Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that the TBC group (adjusted OR 0.267, 95% CI 0.074-0.955; p = 0.042) was an independent protective factor against the incidence of END when TCD parameters were abnormal.

325,32317292,"Results of a randomized, double-blind phase II clinical trial of NY-ESO-1 vaccine with ISCOMATRIX adjuvant versus ISCOMATRIX alone in participants with high-risk resected melanoma.","BACKGROUND
To compare the clinical efficacy of New York Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma-1 (NY-ESO-1) vaccine with ISCOMATRIX adjuvant versus ISCOMATRIX alone in a randomized, double-blind phase II study in participants with fully resected melanoma at high risk of recurrence.
METHODS
Participants with resected stage IIc, IIIb, IIIc and IV melanoma expressing NY-ESO-1 were randomized to treatment with three doses of NY-ESO-1/ISCOMATRIX or ISCOMATRIX adjuvant administered intramuscularly at 4-week intervals, followed by a further dose at 6 months. Primary endpoint was the proportion free of relapse at 18 months in the intention-to-treat (ITT) population and two per-protocol populations. Secondary endpoints included relapse-free survival (RFS) and overall survival (OS), safety and NY-ESO-1 immunity.
RESULTS
The ITT population comprised 110 participants, with 56 randomized to NY-ESO-1/ISCOMATRIX and 54 to ISCOMATRIX alone. No significant toxicities were observed. There were no differences between the study arms in relapses at 18 months or for median time to relapse; 139 vs 176 days (p=0.296), or relapse rate, 27 (48.2%) vs 26 (48.1%) (HR 0.913; 95% CI 0.402 to 2.231), respectively. RFS and OS were similar between the study arms. Vaccine recipients developed strong positive antibody responses to NY-ESO-1 (p≤0.0001) and NY-ESO-1-specific CD4 + and CD8 + responses. Biopsies following relapse did not demonstrate differences in NY-ESO-1 expression between the study populations although an exploratory study demonstrated reduced (NY-ESO-1) + /Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA) class I + double-positive cells in biopsies from vaccine recipients performed on relapse in 19 participants.
CONCLUSIONS
The vaccine was well tolerated, however, despite inducing antigen-specific immunity, it did not affect survival endpoints. Immune escape through the downregulation of NY-ESO-1 and/or HLA class I molecules on tumor may have contributed to relapse.",2020,Vaccine recipients developed strong positive antibody responses to

326,32310966,"Implementer and recipient perspectives of community-wide mass drug administration for soil-transmitted helminths in Kwale County, Kenya.","Soil-transmitted helminthiases (STH) are one of 17 neglected tropical diseases (NTDs) earmarked for control or elimination by 2020 in the WHO's Roadmap on NTDs. Deworming programs for STH have thus far been focused on treating pre-school and school-aged children; however, there is a growing consensus that to achieve elimination of STH transmission, programs must also target adults, potentially through community-wide mass drug administration (MDA). There is currently a gap in the literature on what components are required to deliver community-wide MDA for STH in order to achieve high intervention reach and uptake. Nested within the TUMIKIA Project, a cluster randomized trial in Kenya evaluating the effectiveness of school-based deworming versus community-wide MDA, we collected qualitative data from program implementers and recipients in eight clusters where community-wide MDA was delivered. Data collection included semi-structured in-depth interviews (n = 72) and focus group discussions (n = 32). A conceptual framework for drug distribution was constructed to help build an analysis codebook. Case memos were developed for each top-level theme. Community-wide MDA for STH was perceived as a complex intervention with key administrative and social mobilization domains. Key actionable themes included: (1) developing an efficient strategy to allocate reasonable workload for implementers to cover all targeted households; (2) maximizing community drug distributors' motivation through promoting belief in the effectiveness of the intervention and providing sufficient financial incentives; (3) developing effective capacity building strategies for implementers; and (4) implementing a context-adapted community engagement strategy that leverages existing community structures and takes into consideration past community experiences of MDAs. Transitioning from STH control to elimination goals requires significant planning and action to ensure community-wide MDA is delivered with sufficient reach and uptake. We present findings that can inform national deworming programs to increase intervention delivery capacity.",2020,"Nested within the TUMIKIA Project, a cluster randomized trial in Kenya evaluating the effectiveness of school-based deworming versus community-wide MDA, we collected qualitative data from program implementers and recipients in eight clusters where community-wide MDA was delivered.","['soil-transmitted helminths in Kwale County, Kenya']","['intervention and providing sufficient financial incentives; (3) developing effective capacity building strategies for implementers; and (4) implementing a context-adapted community engagement strategy that leverages existing community structures', 'Soil-transmitted helminthiases (STH', 'school-based deworming versus community-wide MDA']",[],"[{'cui': 'C0037592', 'cui_str': 'Soil'}, {'cui': 'C0242781', 'cui_str': 'Communicable Disease Transmission'}, {'cui': 'C0018893', 'cui_str': 'Helminth'}, {'cui': 'C0445519', 'cui_str': 'Kwale'}, {'cui': 'C0022558', 'cui_str': 'Kenya'}]","[{'cui': 'C0184661', 'cui_str': 'Procedure'}, {'cui': 'C0205410', 'cui_str': 'Sufficient'}, {'cui': 'C0376243', 'cui_str': 'finances'}, {'cui': 'C0021147', 'cui_str': 'Incentives'}, {'cui': 'C1280519', 'cui_str': 'Effectiveness'}, {'cui': 'C2718026', 'cui_str': 'Capacity Building'}, {'cui': 'C4520547', 'cui_str': 'Implemented'}, {'cui': 'C0449255', 'cui_str': 'Context'}, {'cui': 'C0009462', 'cui_str': 'Community'}, {'cui': 'C0425152', 'cui_str': 'Engaged to be married'}, {'cui': 'C0037592', 'cui_str': 'Soil'}, {'cui': 'C0242781', 'cui_str': 'Communicable Disease Transmission'}, {'cui': 'C0036375', 'cui_str': 'School'}, {'cui': 'C0002055', 'cui_str': 'Alkali'}, {'cui': 'C0199859', 'cui_str': 'Deworming'}, {'cui': 'C0332464', 'cui_str': 'Widening'}, {'cui': 'C4505223', 'cui_str': 'Mass Administration'}]",[],,0.0260652,"Nested within the TUMIKIA Project, a cluster randomized trial in Kenya evaluating the effectiveness of school-based deworming versus community-wide MDA, we collected qualitative data from program implementers and recipients in eight clusters where community-wide MDA was delivered.","[{'ForeName': 'Hugo', 'Initials': 'H', 'LastName': 'Legge', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Disease Control, Faculty of Infectious and Tropical Diseases, London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine, London, United Kingdom.'}, {'ForeName': 'Stella', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Kepha', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Disease Control, Faculty of Infectious and Tropical Diseases, London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine, London, United Kingdom.'}, {'ForeName': 'Mateo', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Prochazka', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Disease Control, Faculty of Infectious and Tropical Diseases, London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine, London, United Kingdom.'}, {'ForeName': 'Katherine', 'Initials': 'K', 'LastName': 'Halliday', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Disease Control, Faculty of Infectious and Tropical Diseases, London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine, London, United Kingdom.'}, {'ForeName': 'Rachel', 'Initials': 'R', 'LastName': 'Pullan', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Disease Control, Faculty of Infectious and Tropical Diseases, London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine, London, United Kingdom.'}, {'ForeName': 'Marie-Claire', 'Initials': 'MC', 'LastName': 'Gwayi-Chore', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Global Health, University of Washington, School of Public Health, Seattle, Washington, United States of America.'}, {'ForeName': 'Doris', 'Initials': 'D', 'LastName': 'Njomo', 'Affiliation': 'Eastern and Southern Africa Centre of International Parasite Control, Kenya Medical Research Institute, Nairobi, Kenya.'}]",PLoS neglected tropical diseases,['10.1371/journal.pntd.0008258']

Here, we analyzed the HCV + subgroup of patients from the randomized controlled, international SiLVER Study. We performed a post hoc analysis of 166 HCV + SiLVER Study patients regarding HCC outcome after LTx. Control patients (group A: n = 88) received mTOR inhibitor (mTORi)-free, calcineurin inhibitor (CNI)-based versus sirolimus-based immunosuppression (group B: n = 78). We found no significant difference regarding HCV-RNA titers between group A and B. Since no effect in group B could be due to variable sirolimus dosing, we split group B into patients receiving sirolimus-based immunosuppression + CNIs for >50% (B1; n = 44) or <50% (B2; n = 34) of the time. While there remained no difference in HCV-RNA titer between groups, HCC recurrence-free survival in group B1 (81.8%) was markedly better versus both group A (62.7%; P = 0.0136) and group B2 (64.7%; P = 0.0326); Interestingly, further subgroup analysis revealed an increase (P = 0.0012) in liver enzyme values in group B2.

328,32310686,MAP Train My Brain: Meditation Combined with Aerobic Exercise Reduces Stress and Rumination While Enhancing Quality of Life in Medical Students.,"Medical students must commit a great deal of concentration and energy during their first 2 years of study, leaving minimal time for self-care. However, once they become physicians, they are in the position of instructing their patients to engage in self-care. Objectives: In this study, first- and second-year medical students participated in a combined mental and physical (MAP) training program with meditation and aerobic exercise that targeted brain health. * Design: Each weekly session began with 30 min of instructional training that emphasized the benefit of the program for brain and body health, followed by 30 min of silent meditation, and ending with 30 min of aerobic exercise. Participants monitored their heart rate to achieve 60%-80% of their personal maximum. Participants engaged in one additional session of MAP training each week on their own. Location and Subjects: First- and second-year medical students were recruited to be participants from the Robert Wood Johnson Medical School (RWJMS) in Piscataway, NJ. Outcome measures: Participants completed questionnaires of depressive symptoms, perceived stress, ruminative thoughts, and quality of life, before and after the training approximately 8-9 weeks apart. Results: After 8 weeks of training and in contrast to students who did not participate (n = 30), the medical students who completed at least 14 sessions out of 16 (n = 17) reported significantly fewer ruminations (-17%), including depressive (-16%) and brooding ruminations (-24%). Ruminations are repetitive thoughts that are typically negative in nature and associated with symptoms of depression. The medical students also reported greater quality of life at the end of training and less perceived stress. The majority (84%) would recommend these types of practices and this one in particular to their future patients. Conclusions: Previous studies have demonstrated that MAP training can reduce symptoms of depression as well as trauma-related cognitions, while increasing oxygen consumption and synchronized brain activity during cognitive control procedures. Overall, MAP training offers a time-efficient and evidence-based means of maintaining mental and physical wellness for students during medical school and into their future, as well as their patients alike.",2020,"After 8 weeks of training and in contrast to students who did not participate, the medical students reported significantly fewer ruminations (-17%), including depressive (-16%) and brooding ruminations (-24%).","['patients with major depressive disorder', 'Medical Students', 'Sixty-one first- and second-year medical students were recruited to be participants from the Robert Wood Johnson Medical School (RWJMS) in Piscataway, NJ']","['MAP training', 'combined mental and physical (MAP) training program with meditation and aerobic exercise that targeted brain health', 'Aerobic Exercise', 'MAP Train']","['questionnaires of depressive symptoms, perceived stress, ruminative thoughts, and quality of life', 'time-efficient and evidence-based means of maintaining mental and physical wellness', 'Stress and Rumination While Enhancing Quality of Life', 'depressive', 'brooding ruminations', 'heart rate', 'quality of life']","[{'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patient'}, {'cui': 'C0041696', 'cui_str': 'Depression, Unipolar'}, {'cui': 'C0038495', 'cui_str': 'Medical student'}, {'cui': 'C4517832', 'cui_str': '61'}, {'cui': 'C0205436', 'cui_str': 'Second'}, {'cui': 'C0439234', 'cui_str': 'year'}, {'cui': 'C0043217', 'cui_str': 'Wood'}, {'cui': 'C0036378', 'cui_str': 'Medical School'}]","[{'cui': 'C0024779', 'cui_str': 'Maps'}, {'cui': 'C0040607', 'cui_str': 'Training Programs'}, {'cui': 'C0205195', 'cui_str': 'Combined'}, {'cui': 'C0031809', 'cui_str': 'Physical examination'}, {'cui': 'C0001701', 'cui_str': 'Aerobic exercises'}, {'cui': 'C0006104', 'cui_str': 'Brain structure'}, {'cui': 'C0018684', 'cui_str': 'Health'}, {'cui': 'C0336809', 'cui_str': 'Railway train'}]","[{'cui': 'C0034394', 'cui_str': 'Questionnaires'}, {'cui': 'C0086132', 'cui_str': 'Symptoms of depression'}, {'cui': 'C0030971', 'cui_str': 'Perception'}, {'cui': 'C0038435', 'cui_str': 'Stress'}, {'cui': 'C0039869', 'cui_str': 'Thinking'}, {'cui': 'C0518214', 'cui_str': 'Quality of life satisfaction'}, {'cui': 'C0040223', 'cui_str': 'Time'}, {'cui': 'C0442799', 'cui_str': 'Efficient'}, {'cui': 'C0002055', 'cui_str': 'Alkali'}, {'cui': 'C0444504', 'cui_str': 'Mean'}, {'cui': 'C0024501', 'cui_str': 'Maintenance'}, {'cui': 'C0031809', 'cui_str': 'Physical examination'}, {'cui': 'C0018684', 'cui_str': 'Health'}, {'cui': 'C0154575', 'cui_str': 'Rumination disorder'}, {'cui': 'C0018810', 'cui_str': 'Heart rate'}]",,0.0226093,"After 8 weeks of training and in contrast to students who did not participate, the medical students reported significantly fewer ruminations (-17%), including depressive (-16%) and brooding ruminations (-24%).","[{'ForeName': 'Paul', 'Initials': 'P', 'LastName': 'Lavadera', 'Affiliation': 'Robert Wood Johnson Medical School, Rutgers University Biomedical and Health Sciences, New Brunswick, NJ, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Emma M', 'Initials': 'EM', 'LastName': 'Millon', 'Affiliation': 'Behavioral and Systems Neuroscience, Department of Psychology, Center for Collaborative Neuroscience, Rutgers University, Piscataway, NJ, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Tracey J', 'Initials': 'TJ', 'LastName': 'Shors', 'Affiliation': 'Behavioral and Systems Neuroscience, Department of Psychology, Center for Collaborative Neuroscience, Rutgers University, Piscataway, NJ, USA.'}]","Journal of alternative and complementary medicine (New York, N.Y.)",['10.1089/acm.2019.0281']

Methotrexate in recurrent or metastatic (R/M) squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (SCCHN) has limited progression-free survival (PFS) benefit. We hypothesized that adding cetuximab to methotrexate improves PFS.
METHODS
In the phase-Ib-study, patients with R/M SCCHN received methotrexate and cetuximab as first-line treatment. The primary objective was feasibility. In the phase-II-study patients were randomized to this combination or methotrexate alone (2:1). The primary endpoint was PFS. Secondary endpoints were overall survival (OS), toxicity, and quality of life (QoL).
RESULTS
In six patients in the phase-Ib-study, no dose limiting toxicities were observed. In the phase II study, 30 patients received the combination and 15 patients methotrexate. In the phase-II-study median PFS was 4.5 months in the combination group vs 2.0 months in the methotrexate group (HR 0.37; P = .002). OS, toxicity, and QoL were not significantly different.

330,32311466,Reduction in Post-Discharge Return to Acute Care in Hepatopancreatobiliary Surgery: Results of a Quality Improvement Initiative.,"BACKGROUND
Postoperative returns to acute care represent fragmented care, are costly, and often evolve into readmission. Reduction of postoperative readmissions and emergency department visits represents an opportunity to improve quality of care and decrease resource use. The aim of this study was to assess the impact of 2 failure modes and effects analysis-guided quality improvement interventions on return to acute care within 30 days postoperatively.
METHODS
An American College of Surgeons NSQIP database analysis of adult patients treated by a single hepatopancreatobiliary surgeon at a quaternary academic center was performed. Two failure modes and effects analysis-guided quality improvement interventions were assessed in a staged fashion, including a post-discharge phone call follow-up, and a preoperative clinic visit to discuss plans of care. The primary end point of interest was return to acute care (readmission or emergency department use) within 30 days from postoperative discharge.
RESULTS
During the 4-year study period, 684 patients underwent a hepatopancreatobiliary operation. After the implementation of the failure modes and effects analysis interventions, the baseline 30-day readmission rate was reduced by 48% post intervention (13.5% vs 6.9%; p = 0.011). This impact was sustained, with a readmission rate below the lowest baseline in 5 of 6 postintervention quarters. Short-stay readmissions were reduced by > 76% after the interventions (28.5% vs 6.6%).

331,32312759,Serum Metabolomic Response to Low- and High-Dose Vitamin E Supplementation in Two Randomized Controlled Trials.,"BACKGROUND
Vitamin E is an essential micronutrient and critical human antioxidant previously tested for cancer preventative effects with conflicting clinical trial results that have yet to be explained biologically.
METHODS
We examined baseline and on-trial serum samples for 154 men randomly assigned to receive 400 IU vitamin E (as alpha-tocopheryl acetate; ATA) or placebo daily in the Vitamin E Atherosclerosis Prevention Study (VEAPS), and for 100 men administered 50 IU ATA or placebo daily in the Alpha-Tocopherol, Beta-Carotene Cancer Prevention Study (ATBC). Over 970 metabolites were identified using ultrahigh-performance LC/MS-MS. Linear regression models estimated the change in serum metabolites of men supplemented with vitamin E versus those receiving placebo in VEAPS as compared with ATBC.
RESULTS
Serum alpha-carboxyethyl hydrochroman (CEHC) sulfate, alpha-tocopherol, and beta/gamma-tocopherol were significantly altered by ATA supplementation in both trials (all P values ≤5.1 × 10 -5 , the Bonferroni multiple comparisons corrected statistical threshold). Serum C 22 lactone sulfate was significantly decreased in response to the high-dose vitamin E in VEAPS (β = -0.70, P = 8.1 × 10 -6 ), but not altered by the low dose in ATBC (β = -0.17, P = 0.4). In addition, changes in androgenic steroid metabolites were strongly correlated with the vitamin E supplement-associated change in C 22 lactone sulfate only in the VEAPS trial.
CONCLUSIONS
We found evidence of a dose-dependent vitamin E supplementation effect on a novel C 22 lactone sulfate compound that was correlated with several androgenic steroids.

332,32311455,"Disposition of two highly permeable drugs in the upper gastrointestinal lumen of healthy adults after a standard high-calorie, high-fat meal.","OBJECTIVES
To quantify the presence of two model highly permeable drugs, paracetamol and danazol, in the upper gastrointestinal lumen under conditions simulating the situation after disintegration of immediate release dosage forms administered in bioavailability/bioequivalence studies in the fed state. To understand the drug transfer process from the antral contents through the upper small intestine based on luminal drug data.
METHODS
8 healthy male adult volunteers participated in a randomized, single dose, two-phase, crossover study. After evaluating the impact of homogenization on meal's viscosity and particle size, the meal, containing phenol red as non-absorbable marker, was administered to the antrum via the gastric lumen of a naso-gastro-intestinal tube. The drugs were administered in solution form (Phase I) and in suspension form (Phase II) with a glass of tap water to the antrum of the stomach, 30 min after the initiation of meal administration. Samples were aspirated from the antrum and the upper small intestine up to 4 hours post drug administration.
RESULTS
Apparent concentrations in the aqueous contents of the antrum were higher than apparent concentrations in the micellar contents of the upper small intestine for paracetamol; the opposite was observed for danazol. Based on total drug amount per volume data in contents of the upper gastrointestinal lumen, the transfer of paracetamol (aqueous solution or suspension) and danazol (aqueous suspension) through the upper small intestine could be described as an apparent first-order process. Transfer of a long-chain triglyceride solution of danazol was highly variable.
CONCLUSIONS
Concentrations in the aqueous/micellar phase of luminal contents and values of parameters controlling the transfer from bulk gastric contents through the upper small intestine after a high-calorie, high-fat meal, were reported for the first time for highly permeable drugs.

333,32040523,The long-term effects of a family based economic empowerment intervention (Suubi+Adherence) on suppression of HIV viral loads among adolescents living with HIV in southern Uganda: Findings from 5-year cluster randomized trial.,"BACKGROUND
The rapid scale-up of HIV therapy across Africa has failed to adequately engage adolescents living with HIV (ALWHIV). Retention and viral suppression for this group (ALWHIV) is 50% lower than for adults. Indeed, on the African continent, HIV remains the single leading cause of mortality among adolescents. Strategies tailored to the unqiue developmental and social vulnerabilities of this group are urgently needed to enhance successful treatment.
METHODS
We carried out a five-year longitudinal cluster randomized trial (ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT01790373) with adolescents living with HIV (ALWHIV) ages 10 to 16 years clustered at health care clinics to test the effect of a family economic empowerment (EE) intervention on viral suppression in five districuts in Uganda. In total, 39 accredited health care clinics from study districts with existing procedures tailored to adolescent adherence were eligible to participate in the trial. We used data from 288 youth with detectable HIV viral loads (VL) at baseline (158 -intervention group from 20 clinics, 130 -non-intervention group from 19 clinics). The primary end point was undetectable plasma HIV RNA levels, defined as < 40 copies/ml. We used Kaplan-Meier (KM) analysis and Cox proportional hazard models to estimate intervention effects.
FINDINGS
The Kaplan-Meier (KM) analysis indicated that an incidence of undetectable VL (0.254) was significantly higher in the intervention condition compared to 0.173 (in non-intervention arm) translated into incidence rate ratio of 1.468 (CI: 1.064-2.038), p = 0.008. Cox regression results showed that along with the family-based EE intervention (adj. HR = 1.446, CI: 1.073-1.949, p = 0.015), higher number of medications per day had significant positive effects on the viral suppression (adj.HR = 1.852, CI: 1.275-2.690, p = 0.001).
INTERPRETATION
A family economic empowerment intervention improved treatment success for ALWHIV in Uganda. Analyses of cost effectiveness and scalability are needed to advance incorporation of this intervention into routine practice in low and middle-income countries.",2020,"HR = 1.852, CI: 1.275-2.690, p = 0.001).

334,32301699,Comparative efficacy and safety of 100 mg and 200 mg filgotinib administered to patients with active rheumatoid arthritis: A Bayesian network meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials
.,"OBJECTIVES
We assessed the relative efficacy and safety of once-daily administration of 100 and 200 mg filgotinib (a JAK1-selective inhibitor) in patients with active rheumatoid arthritis (RA).
MATERIALS AND METHODS
We conducted a Bayesian network meta-analysis combining the direct and indirect evidence from randomized controlled trials (RCTs) that examined the efficacy and safety of filgotinib in patients with active RA.
RESULTS
Five RCTs involving 3,920 patients met the inclusion criteria. There were 15 pairwise comparisons, including 8 direct comparisons and 7 interventions. The ACR20 response rate was significantly higher in the filgotinib 200 mg + methotrexate (MTX) group than in the placebo or placebo + MTX group (odds ratio (OR): 12.39, 95% credible interval (CrI): 3.36 - 45.98.10; OR: 2.68, 95% CrI: 1.80 - 4.39). Compared to the placebo group, the filgotinib 100 mg, adalimumab 40 mg + MTX, filgotinib 200 mg, and placebo + MTX groups showed a significantly higher ACR20 response rate. The ranking probability based on the surface under the cumulative ranking curve (SUCRA) indicated filgotinib 200 mg + MTX was likely to achieve the best ACR20 response rate (SUCRA = 0.902), followed by filgotinib 100 mg + MTX (SUCRA = 0.694), filgotinib 100 mg (SUCRA = 0.675), adalimumab 40 mg + MTX (SUCRA = 0.661), filgotinib 200 mg (SUCRA = 0.305), placebo + MTX (SUCRA = 0.259), and placebo (SUCRA = 0.005). The safety based on the number of serious adverse events (SAEs) did not differ significantly among 6 six interventions.
CONCLUSION
Filgotinib 100 and 200 mg administration once daily in combination with MTX was the most efficacious intervention for active RA, with no significant risk of SAEs.",2020,"The safety based on the number of serious adverse events (SAEs) did not differ significantly among 6 six interventions.

335,32301701,"Effects of antibiotics on prevention of infection, white blood cell counts, and C-reactive protein levels at different times in the perioperative period of cesarean section
.","OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the effects of antibiotics on prevention of infection, white blood cell (WBC) counts and C-reactive protein (CRP) levels at different times in the perioperative period of cesarean section.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
A total of 486 women undergoing cesarean section were randomly divided into groups A, B, and C (n = 162). Group A was intravenously infused with 250 mL of 0.9% normal saline containing 2 g cefuroxime sodium 30 minutes before surgery within 30 - 45 minutes. Group B was given cefuroxime 30 minutes before surgery and 3 days after surgery, respectively. Group C was given cefuroxime only after returning to ward, once daily for 3 consecutive days. The surgical time, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative hospital-stay length, hospitalization expenditure, maximum body temperature, WBC count and CRP level 3 days after surgery, grade A healing rate of incision at discharge, and incidence of infection were compared.
RESULTS
Group A had the shortest postoperative hospital-stay length and lowest hospitalization expenditure (p < 0.05). The maximum body temperature, WBC count and CRP level of group A 3 days after surgery were lowest (p < 0.05). The three groups had similar grade A healing rates of incision (p > 0.05). The postoperative infection rates of groups A and B were similar (p > 0.05), both being significantly lower than that of group C (p < 0.05).

336,32101767,Randomized Controlled Simulation Trial to Compare Transfer Procedures for Emergency Cesarean.,"OBJECTIVE
To test the hypothesis that capping intravenous and epidural lines would reduce time to transfer women in labor to the operating room and time to readiness for general anesthesia for emergency cesarean. The secondary purpose was to identify latent threats to patient safety.
DESIGN
Mixed methods analysis of a randomized, controlled, in situ simulation trial.
SETTING
Labor and delivery unit at high-risk referral center.
PARTICIPANTS
Fifteen interprofessional teams that included labor and delivery nurses and anesthesiology residents.
METHODS
Immediately before simulation, we randomized bedside nurses and anesthesiology residents to one of two groups: usual transfer or the cap and run procedure. Simulation scenarios started with fetal heart rate decelerations that necessitated position changes followed by emergency cesarean. An embedded simulated obstetrician announced the decision for cesarean; completion of an OR checklist confirmed team readiness to induce general anesthesia. Postsimulation debriefing was focused on teamwork and opportunities to improve safety, and we used qualitative analysis to synthesize results.
RESULTS
We found no statistically significant difference in the overall time from decision for cesarean to readiness for general anesthesia between the two groups (usual transfer median = 445 seconds [interquartile range, 425-465] vs. cap and run 390 seconds [interquartile range, 383-443], p = .12). The time in the operating room was less in the cap and run group than in the usual transfer group (median = 300 seconds vs. 250 seconds, p = .038). Qualitative analysis of the debriefing data indicated advantages of the capping procedure, including better bed maneuverability and fewer tangled lines.
CONCLUSION
We found no evidence of decreased overall time from decision for cesarean to readiness for general anesthesia based on whether the nurse capped the intravenous and epidural lines or pushed the intravenous pole alongside the bed. However, nurses perceived improved patient safety with the cap and run procedure.",2020,"We found no statistically significant difference in the overall time from decision for cesarean to readiness for general anesthesia between the two groups (usual transfer median = 445 s [interquartile range, 425-465] vs. cap and run 390 s","['Fifteen interprofessional teams that included labor and delivery nurses and anesthesiology residents', 'Emergency Cesarean', 'Labor and delivery unit at high-risk referral center']",['usual transfer or the cap and run procedure'],"['time in the operating room', 'patient safety']","[{'cui': 'C0332257', 'cui_str': 'Including (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0022864', 'cui_str': 'Labor, Obstetric'}, {'cui': 'C0011209', 'cui_str': 'Obstetric Delivery'}, {'cui': 'C0028661', 'cui_str': 'Personnel, Nursing'}, {'cui': 'C0002930', 'cui_str': 'Anesthesiology'}, {'cui': 'C0175673', 'cui_str': 'Emergency (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C1321138', 'cui_str': 'Labor and delivery unit'}, {'cui': 'C4319571', 'cui_str': 'High risk (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0034927', 'cui_str': 'Referral'}, {'cui': 'C0205099', 'cui_str': 'Central (qualifier value)'}]","[{'cui': 'C0040671', 'cui_str': 'Transfer'}, {'cui': 'C0179586', 'cui_str': 'Cap (physical object)'}, {'cui': 'C0600140', 'cui_str': 'Does run (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C0184661', 'cui_str': 'Procedures'}]","[{'cui': 'C1632851', 'cui_str': 'Times'}, {'cui': 'C0029064', 'cui_str': 'Operating Room'}, {'cui': 'C1113679'}]",,0.113326,"We found no statistically significant difference in the overall time from decision for cesarean to readiness for general anesthesia between the two groups (usual transfer median = 445 s [interquartile range, 425-465] vs. cap and run 390 s","[{'ForeName': 'Jill', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Mhyre', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Nicole', 'Initials': 'N', 'LastName': 'Ward', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Teresa M', 'Initials': 'TM', 'LastName': 'Whited', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Michael', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Anders', 'Affiliation': ''}]","Journal of obstetric, gynecologic, and neonatal nursing : JOGNN",['10.1016/j.jogn.2020.01.006']
337,32073177,Posttraumatic Growth After MDMA-Assisted Psychotherapy for Posttraumatic Stress Disorder.,"3,4-Methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA)-assisted psychotherapy for posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) has been shown to significantly reduce clinical symptomatology, but posttraumatic growth (PTG), which consists of positive changes in self-perception, interpersonal relationships, or philosophy of life, has not been studied with this treatment. Participant data (n = 60) were pooled from three Phase 2 clinical studies employing triple-blind crossover designs. Participants were required to meet DSM-IV-R criteria for PTSD with a score higher than 50 on the Clinician-Administered PTSD Scale (CAPS-IV) as well as previous inadequate response to pharmacological and/or psychotherapeutic treatment. Data were aggregated into two groups: an active MDMA dose group (75-125 mg of MDMA; n = 45) or placebo/active control (0-40 mg of MDMA; n = 15). Measures included the Posttraumatic Growth Inventory (PTGI) and the CAPS-IV, which were administered at baseline, primary endpoint, treatment exit, and 12-month follow-up. At primary endpoint, the MDMA group demonstrated more PTG, Hedges' g = 1.14, 95% CI [0.49, 1.78], p < .001; and a larger reduction in PTSD symptom severity, Hedges' g = 0.88, 95% CI [-0.28, 1.50], p < .001, relative to the control group. Relative to baseline, at the 12-month follow-up, within-subject PTG was higher, p < .001; PTSD symptom severity scores were lower, p < .001; and two-thirds of participants (67.2%) no longer met criteria for PTSD.

338,32077550,The Impact of Anlotinib on Brain Metastases of Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer: Post Hoc Analysis of a Phase III Randomized Control Trial (ALTER0303).,"BACKGROUND
Anlotinib has been shown to prolong progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Herein we sought to analyze the effect of anlotinib in managing brain metastases (BM) and its brain-associated toxicities.
METHODS
The PFS and OS of anlotinib versus placebo in those with and without BM recorded at baseline were calculated and compared respectively. Time to brain progression (TTBP), a direct indicator of intracranial control, was also compared between anlotinib and placebo. All calculations were adjusted for confounding factors, including stage, histology, driver mutation type, and therapy history.
RESULTS
A total of 437 patients were included; 97 cases were recorded with BM at baseline. For patients with BM at baseline, anlotinib was associated with longer PFS (hazard ratio [HR], 0.29; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.15-0.56) and OS (HR, 0.72; 95% CI, 0.42-1.12), presenting similar extent of improvement in those without BM (PFS: HR, 0.33; 95% CI, 0.24-0.45; OS: HR, 0.67; 95% CI, 0.50-0.91). Specifically, the intracranial objective response rate was 14.3% and the disease control rate was 85.7% in patients with BM who were treated with anlotinib. Anlotinib was associated with longer TTBP (HR, 0.11; 95% CI, 0.03-0.41; p = .001) despite all confounders. Additionally, anlotinib was associated with more neural toxicities (18.4% vs. 8.4%) and psychological symptoms (49.3% vs. 35.7%) but not with infarction or cerebral hemorrhage.
CONCLUSION
Anlotinib can benefit patients with advanced NSCLC with BM and is highly potent in the management of intracranial lesions. Its special effect on BM and cerebral tissue merits further investigation.

339,30680768,Treatment of exudative age-related macular degeneration with aflibercept combined with pranoprofen eye drops or nutraceutical support with omega-3: A randomized trial.,"AIMS
The aim of this study was to determine whether a combination of intravitreal aflibercept (IVA) and pranoprofen eyedrops or nutraceutical support provides additional benefit over IVA monotherapy for the treatment of choroidal neovascularization (CNV) in age-related macular degeneration.
METHODS
This was a prospective, randomized, pilot study in 60 patients with treatment-naïve CNV. Patients were randomized 1:1:1 into three groups: aflibercept monotherapy (AM), aflibercept plus pranoprofen (AP) or aflibercept plus nutraceutical (AN) tablets containing multivitamin antioxidant and mineral supplementation plus omega-3.
RESULTS
At 12 months, all groups showed significant improvement in both best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) and central retinal thickness (CRT). The mean BCVA change from baseline to 12 months was -0.26 ± 0.06 LogMAR, -0.30 ± 0.06 LogMAR and -0.24 ± 0.04 LogMAR in the AM, AP and AN groups, respectively. The mean CRT change from baseline to 12 months was -76.9 ± 10.9 μm, -129 ± 19.9 μm and -105 ± 11.6 μm in the AM, AP and AN groups, respectively. The AN group required one less IVA injection than the AM group.

340,31796986,"GLP-1 secretion is regulated by IL-6 signalling: a randomised, placebo-controlled study.","AIMS/HYPOTHESIS
IL-6 is a cytokine with various effects on metabolism. In mice, IL-6 improved beta cell function and glucose homeostasis via upregulation of glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1), and IL-6 release from muscle during exercise potentiated this beneficial increase in GLP-1. This study aimed to identify whether exercise-induced IL-6 has a similar effect in humans.
METHODS
In a multicentre, double-blind clinical trial, we randomly assigned patients with type 2 diabetes or obesity to intravenous tocilizumab (an IL-6 receptor antagonist) 8 mg/kg every 4 weeks, oral sitagliptin (a dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitor) 100 mg daily or double placebos (a placebo saline infusion every 4 weeks and a placebo pill once daily) during a 12 week training intervention. The primary endpoints were the difference in change of active GLP-1 response to an acute exercise bout and change in the AUC for the concentration-time curve of active GLP-1 during mixed meal tolerance tests at baseline and after the training intervention.
RESULTS
Nineteen patients were allocated to tocilizumab, 17 to sitagliptin and 16 to placebos. During the acute exercise bout active GLP-1 levels were 26% lower with tocilizumab (multiplicative effect: 0.74 [95% CI 0.56, 0.98], p = 0.034) and 53% higher with sitagliptin (1.53 [1.15, 2.03], p = 0.004) compared with placebo. After the 12 week training intervention, the active GLP-1 AUC with sitagliptin was about twofold that with placebo (2.03 [1.56, 2.62]; p < 0.001), while GLP-1 AUC values showed a small non-significant decrease of 13% at 4 weeks after the last tocilizumab infusion (0.87 [0.67, 1.12]; p = 0.261).
CONCLUSIONS/INTERPRETATION
IL-6 is implicated in the regulation of GLP-1 in humans. IL-6 receptor blockade lowered active GLP-1 levels in response to a meal and an acute exercise bout in a reversible manner, without lasting effects beyond IL-6 receptor blockade.

341,30666700,Effects of the nitric oxide synthase inhibitor ronopterin (VAS203) on renal function in healthy volunteers.,"AIMS
Reduced nitric oxide (NO) availability may adversely affect renal perfusion and glomerular filtration. The aim of the present study was to characterize in detail the pharmacological effects of VAS203, an inhibitor of NO synthase, on renal haemodynamics in humans.
METHODS
This double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, cross-over phase-I-study comprised 18 healthy men. Renal haemodynamics were assessed with constant-infusion input-clearance technique with p-aminohippurate and inulin for renal plasma flow (RPF) and glomerular filtration rate (GFR), respectively. After baseline measurement, a constant infusion of the tetrahydrobiopterin analogue ronopterin (VAS203, total 10 mg/kg body weight) or placebo was administered at random order for 6 hours additionally. After a wash-out phase of 28 days, the second course was applied. In parallel, markers of early kidney injury and renal function were assessed repeatedly up to 48 hours after starting VAS203/placebo-infusion.
RESULTS
VAS203-infusion resulted in a significant decrease of RPF (P < .0001) and GFR (P < .001) compared to placebo, but magnitude was within the physiological range. RPF and GFR recovered partly 2 hours after end of VAS203-infusion and was normal at beginning of the second infusion period. Compared to placebo, preglomerular resistance (P < .0001), and to lesser extent postglomerular resistance (P < .0001) increased, resulting in a decrease of intraglomerular pressure (P < .01). No treatment related effect on markers of early kidney injury, and on renal function (P for all >.20) have been observed.
CONCLUSIONS
Our phase-I-study in healthy humans indicates that VAS203 (10 mg/kg body weight) reduces renal perfusion and glomerular function within the physiological range mainly due to vasoconstriction at the preglomerular site.",2019,"No treatment related effect on markers of early kidney injury, and on renal function (P for all >.20) have been observed.

342,31811662,Hypoglycaemia is reduced with use of inhaled Technosphere ® Insulin relative to insulin aspart in type 1 diabetes mellitus.,"AIM
To evaluate the effect of final HbA 1c levels on the incidences of hypoglycaemia in participants with type 1 diabetes treated with inhaled Technosphere ® Insulin or subcutaneous insulin aspart, reported in alignment with the International Hypoglycaemia Study Group recommendations.
METHODS
In the randomized, phase 3, multicentre AFFINITY-1 study, adults (N = 375) who had type 1 diabetes for ≥ 12 months and an HbA 1c level of 58-86 mmol/mol (7.5-10.0%) were randomized to receive basal insulin plus either inhaled Technosphere Insulin or subcutaneous insulin aspart. This was a post-hoc regression analysis on a subset (N = 279) of the randomized AFFINITY-1 cohort for whom baseline and end-of-treatment HbA 1c values were reported. Primary outcome measures were incidence and event rates for levels 1, 2 and 3 hypoglycaemia, respectively defined as blood glucose levels of ≤ 3.9 mmol/l, < 3.0 mmol/l or requiring external assistance for recovery.
RESULTS
Participants treated with Technosphere Insulin experienced statistically significantly fewer level 1 and 2 hypoglycaemic events and a lower incidence of level 3 hypoglycaemia than participants treated with insulin aspart. The lower rate of hypoglycaemia with Technosphere Insulin was observed across the range of end-of-treatment HbA 1c levels. Technosphere Insulin was associated with higher rates of hypoglycaemia 30-60 min after meals, but significantly lower rates 2-6 h after meals.

343,30737835,Effects of prednisone on docetaxel pharmacokinetics in men with metastatic prostate cancer: A randomized drug-drug interaction study.,"AIMS
Docetaxel has been approved for the treatment of metastatic prostate cancer in combination with prednisone. Since prednisone is known to induce the cytochrome P450 iso-enzyme CYP3A4, which is the main metabolizing enzyme of docetaxel in the liver, a potential drug-drug interaction may occur. In this prospective randomized pharmacokinetic cross-over study we investigated docetaxel exposure with concomitant prednisone, compared to docetaxel monotherapy in men with metastatic prostate cancer.
METHODS
Patients scheduled to receive at least 6 cycles of docetaxel (75 mg/m 2 ) and who gave written informed consent were randomized to receive either the 1 st 3 cycles, or the last 3 consecutive cycles with prednisone (twice daily 5 mg). Pharmacokinetic blood sampling was performed during cycle 3 and cycle 6. Primary endpoint was difference in docetaxel exposure, calculated as area under the curve (AUC 0-inf ) and analysed by means of a linear mixed model. Given the cross-over design the study was powered on 18 patients to answer the primary, pharmacokinetic, endpoint.
RESULTS
Eighteen evaluable patients were included in the trial. Docetaxel concentration with concomitant prednisone (AUC 0-inf 2784 ng*h/mL, 95% confidence interval 2436-3183 ng*h/mL) was similar to the concentration of docetaxel monotherapy (AUC 0-inf 2647 ng*h/mL, 95% confidence interval 2377-2949 ng*h/mL). Exploratory analysis showed no toxicity differences between docetaxel monotherapy and docetaxel cycles with prednisone.
CONCLUSION
No significant difference in docetaxel concentrations was observed. In addition, we found similar toxicity profiles in absence and presence of prednisone.

344,30706508,"Evaluating metronidazole as a novel, safe CYP2A6 phenotyping probe in healthy adults.","AIMS
CYP2A6 is a genetically polymorphic enzyme resulting in differential substrate metabolism and health behaviours. Current phenotyping probes for CYP2A6 exhibit limitations related to procurement (deuterated cotinine), toxicity (coumarin), specificity (caffeine) and age-appropriate administration (nicotine, NIC). In vitro, CYP2A6 selectively forms 2-hydroxymetronidazole (2HM) from metronidazole (MTZ). The purpose of this study was to evaluate MTZ as a CYP2A6 phenotyping probe drug in healthy adults against the well-established method of measuring trans-3-hydroxycotinine (3HC)/cotinine (COT).
METHODS
A randomized, cross-over, pharmacokinetic study was completed in 16 healthy, nonsmoking adults. Separated by a washout period of at least 2 weeks, MTZ 500 mg and NIC gum 2 mg were administered and plasma was sampled over 48 hours and 8 hours, respectively. Correlations of plasma metabolite/parent ratios (2HM/MTZ; 3HC/COT) were assessed by Pearson coefficient. CYP2A6 genotyping was conducted and incorporated as a variable of plasma ratio response.
RESULTS
Correlations between the plasma ratio 2HM/MTZ and 3HC/COT were ≥ 0.9 at multiple time points (P < 0.001), demonstrating a wide window during which 2HM/MTZ can be queried post-MTZ dose. CYP2A6 genotype had significant impacts on both MTZ and NIC phenotyping ratios with decreased activity predicted phenotypes demonstrating 2HM/MTZ ratios ≤58% and 3HC/COT ratios ≤56% compared with extensive activity predicted phenotypes at all time points examined in the study (P < 0.05). No adverse events were reported in the MTZ arm while 38% (n = 6) of participants reported mild adverse events in the NIC arm.

345,30710391,"Central nervous system effects of the histamine-3 receptor antagonist CEP-26401, in comparison with modafinil and donepezil, after a single dose in a cross-over study in healthy volunteers.","AIMS
In previous studies, the histamine-3 receptor antagonist CEP-26401 had a subtle effect on spatial working memory, with the best effect seen at the lowest dose tested (20 μg), and a dose-dependent disruption of sleep. In the current study, 3 low-dose levels of CEP-26401 were compared with modafinil and donepezil.
METHODS
In this double-blind, placebo- and positive-controlled, randomized, partial 6-way cross-over study, 40 healthy subjects received single doses of placebo, CEP-26401 (5, 25 or 125 μg) or modafinil 200 mg or donepezil 10 mg. Pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic measurements were performed predose and at designated time points postdose.
RESULTS
The main endpoint between-errors of the spatial working memory-10-boxes task only improved for the 125 μg dose of CEP-26401 with a difference of 2.92 (confidence interval [CI] -1.21 to 7.05), 3.24 (CI -1.57 to 8.04) and 7.45 (CI 2.72 to 12.19) for respectively the 5, 25 and 125 μg dose of CEP-26401, -1.65 (CI -0.572 to 1.96) for modafinil and - 3.55 (CI -7.13 to 0.03) for donepezil. CEP-26401 induced an improvement of adaptive tracking, saccadic peak velocity and reaction time during N-back, but a dose-related inhibition of sleep and slight worsening of several cognitive parameters at the highest dose. CEP-26401 significantly changed several subjective visual analogue scales, which was strongest at 25 μg, causing the same energizing and happy feeling as modafinil, but with a more relaxed undertone.
DISCUSSION
Of the doses tested, the 25 μg dose of CEP-26401 had the most optimal balance between favourable subjective effects and sleep inhibition. Whether CEP-26401 can have beneficial effects in clinical practice remains to be studied.",2019,"CEP-26401 induced an improvement of adaptive tracking, saccadic peak velocity and reaction time during N-back, but a dose-related inhibition of sleep and slight worsening of several cognitive parameters at the highest dose.","['healthy volunteers', '40 healthy subjects']","['modafinil and donepezil', 'placebo', 'donepezil', 'modafinil 200\xa0mg or donepezil 10\xa0mg', 'histamine-3 receptor antagonist CEP-26401', 'CEP-26401', 'placebo, CEP-26401']","['errors of the spatial working memory-10-boxes task', 'adaptive tracking, saccadic peak velocity and reaction time during N-back, but a dose-related inhibition of sleep and slight worsening of several cognitive parameters', 'several subjective visual analogue scales', 'Pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic measurements', 'spatial working memory']","[{'cui': 'C1708335', 'cui_str': 'Healthy Participants'}]","[{'cui': 'C0066677', 'cui_str': 'modafinil'}, {'cui': 'C0527316', 'cui_str': 'donepezil'}, {'cui': 'C1696465', 'cui_str': 'placebo'}, {'cui': 'C0987900', 'cui_str': 'modafinil 200 MG'}, {'cui': 'C0019588', 'cui_str': 'Histamine'}, {'cui': 'C4543207', 'cui_str': 'Receptor antagonist'}, {'cui': 'C3254381', 'cui_str': 'CEP-26401'}]","[{'cui': 'C0025265', 'cui_str': 'Working Memory'}, {'cui': 'C1638312', 'cui_str': 'Boxes'}, {'cui': 'C0444505', 'cui_str': 'Peak (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0439830', 'cui_str': 'Velocity (property) (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0034746', 'cui_str': 'Response Time'}, {'cui': 'C0869039', 'cui_str': 'Unit dose'}, {'cui': 'C0445223', 'cui_str': 'Related (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C0021469', 'cui_str': 'Inhibition, function (observable entity)'}, {'cui': 'C0424522', 'cui_str': 'Asleep (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C2937276', 'cui_str': 'Slight (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0449381', 'cui_str': 'Observation parameter'}, {'cui': 'C0439655', 'cui_str': 'Subjective observation'}, {'cui': 'C3536884', 'cui_str': 'Visual Analog Scale'}, {'cui': 'C0031327', 'cui_str': 'Drug Kinetics'}, {'cui': 'C0243145', 'cui_str': 'pharmacodynamics'}, {'cui': 'C0242485', 'cui_str': 'Measurement procedure'}, {'cui': 'C0025260', 'cui_str': 'Memory'}]",40.0,0.462805,"CEP-26401 induced an improvement of adaptive tracking, saccadic peak velocity and reaction time during N-back, but a dose-related inhibition of sleep and slight worsening of several cognitive parameters at the highest dose.","[{'ForeName': 'Anne C', 'Initials': 'AC', 'LastName': 'Baakman', 'Affiliation': 'Centre for Human Drug Research, Leiden, Netherlands.'}, {'ForeName': 'Rob', 'Initials': 'R', 'LastName': 'Zuiker', 'Affiliation': 'Centre for Human Drug Research, Leiden, Netherlands.'}, {'ForeName': 'Joop M A', 'Initials': 'JMA', 'LastName': 'van Gerven', 'Affiliation': 'Centre for Human Drug Research, Leiden, Netherlands.'}, {'ForeName': 'Nicholas', 'Initials': 'N', 'LastName': 'Gross', 'Affiliation': 'Research and Development Teva Pharmaceuticals, Frazer, Philadelphia, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Ronghua', 'Initials': 'R', 'LastName': 'Yang', 'Affiliation': 'Research and Development Teva Pharmaceuticals, Frazer, Philadelphia, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Michael', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Fetell', 'Affiliation': 'Research and Development Teva Pharmaceuticals, Frazer, Philadelphia, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Ari', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Gershon', 'Affiliation': 'Global Patient Safety and Pharmacovigilance, Teva Pharmaceuticals, Petah Tikva, Israel.'}, {'ForeName': 'Yossi', 'Initials': 'Y', 'LastName': 'Gilgun-Sherki', 'Affiliation': 'Formerly Research and Development Teva Pharmaceuticals, Netanya, Israel.'}, {'ForeName': 'Edward', 'Initials': 'E', 'LastName': 'Hellriegel', 'Affiliation': 'Research and Development Teva Pharmaceuticals, West Chester, Pennsylvania, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Ofer', 'Initials': 'O', 'LastName': 'Spiegelstein', 'Affiliation': 'Research and Development Teva Pharmaceuticals, Netanya, Israel.'}]",British journal of clinical pharmacology,['10.1111/bcp.13885']
346,31012040,"A Randomized, Placebo-Controlled, Double-Blind Study that Evaluates Efficacy of Intravenous Ibuprofen and Acetaminophen for Postoperative Pain Treatment Following Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy Surgery.","BACKGROUND
Ibuprofen is a NSAID that has anti-inflammatory, antipyretic, and analgesic effects. The oral form of the drug has been used safely for a long time and is one of the most preferred NSAIDs. It has been shown that ibuprofen is effective in the treatment of postoperative pain; however, there have not been sufficient studies on ibuprofen. We evaluated and compared the influence of IV forms of ibuprofen and acetaminophen on pain management and opioid consumption on patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy surgery.
METHODS
Patients were stratified into three groups. Group I (group ibuprofen, n = 30) was administered 800 mg of IV ibuprofen; group A (group acetaminophen, n = 30) was administered 1000 mg of IV acetaminophen; and group C (control group, n = 30) was given 100 ml of saline solution. We evaluated opioid consumption and VAS scores postoperatively.
RESULTS
Pain scores in group I and group A at all time periods were lower than those in group C (p < 0.05). Group I had significantly lower VAS scores than those in group A at all time periods postoperatively (p < 0.05). Those in group C had significantly higher opioid consumption than the other groups (p < 0.05). Opioid consumption in group I at all time periods postoperatively was significantly lower than those in group A (p < 0.05). Group I had statistically lower rescue medication than the other groups at all time periods.

347,31066013,"A Multicenter, Randomized, Open-Label Study to Compare Micafungin with Fluconazole in the Prophylaxis of Invasive Fungal Infections in Living-Donor Liver Transplant Recipients.","BACKGROUND
Although invasive fungal infections (IFIs) contribute to substantial morbidity and mortality in liver transplant recipients, only a few randomized studies analyzed the results of antifungal prophylaxis with echinocandins. The aim of this open-label, non-inferiority study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of micafungin in the prophylaxis of IFIs in living-donor liver transplantation recipients (LDLTRs), with fluconazole as the comparator.
METHODS
LDLTRs (N = 172) from five centers were randomized 1:1 to receive intravenous micafungin 100 mg/day or fluconazole 100~200 mg/day (intravenous or oral). A non-inferiority of micafungin was tested against fluconazole.
RESULTS
The per-protocol set included 144 patients without major clinical trial protocol violations: 69 from the micafungin group and 75 from the fluconazole group. Mean age of the study patients was 54.2 years and mean model for end-stage liver disease (MELD) score amounted to 16.5. Clinical success rates in the micafungin and fluconazole groups were 95.65% and 96.10%, respectively (difference: - 0.45%; 90% confidence interval [CI]: - 6.93%, 5.59%), which demonstrated micafungin's non-inferiority (the lower bound for the 90% CI exceeded - 10%). The study groups did not differ significantly in terms of the secondary efficacy endpoints: absence of IFIs at the end of the prophylaxis and the end of the study, time to proven IFI, fungal-free survival, and adverse reactions. A total of 17 drug-related adverse events were observed in both groups; none of them was serious and all resolved.
CONCLUSION
Micafungin can be used as an alternative to fluconazole in the prevention of IFIs in LDLTRs.

348,32208487,Phase 2 trial of montelukast for prevention of pain in sickle cell disease.,"Cysteinyl leukotrienes (CysLTs) are lipid mediators of inflammation. In patients with sickle cell disease (SCD), levels of CysLTs are increased compared with controls and associated with a higher rate of hospitalization for pain. We tested the hypothesis that administration of the CysLT receptor antagonist montelukast would improve SCD-related comorbidities, including pain, in adolescents and adults with SCD. In a phase 2 randomized trial, we administered montelukast or placebo for 8 weeks. The primary outcome measure was a >30% reduction in soluble vascular cell adhesion molecule 1 (sVCAM), a marker of vascular injury. Secondary outcome measures were reduction in daily pain, improvement in pulmonary function, and improvement in microvascular blood flow, as measured by laser Doppler velocimetry. Forty-two participants with SCD were randomized to receive montelukast or placebo for 8 weeks.

349,30414797,Effect of Intravascular Cooling on Microvascular Obstruction (MVO) in Conscious Patients with ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction Undergoing Primary PCI: Results from the COOL AMI EU Pilot Study.,"OBJECTIVE
COOL AMI EU pilot was a multi-center, randomized controlled trial to assess feasibility and safety of rapid intravascular therapeutic hypothermia (TH) in conscious patients with anterior ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) undergoing primary PCI (PPCI). We report the effect of hypothermia upon microvascular obstruction (MVO).
METHODS
Conscious patients with anterior STEMI and symptom duration <6 h were recruited and randomized to PPCI + TH or PPCI alone. TH was induced using the ZOLL® Proteus™ intravascular temperature management system and rapid infusion of 1 L of cold normal saline, with a target temperature of 32 °C. MVO was measured by cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) at 4 to 6 days post-MI. MVO larger than 3.9% of LV was considered as extensive MVO.
RESULTS
50 patients were randomized; mean age was 58 years, and 86% were men. At reperfusion, mean intravascular temperature for the TH group was 33.6 ± 1 °C. The presence of MVO was high and not different in both groups (74% vs. 77%, p = 0.79). The proportion of patients with extensive MVO was 11% in the TH group and 23% in the control group (OR 0.4 95%CI 0.07-2.35, p = 0.30). Patients with extensive MVO showed reduced EF at 4-6 days (34% versus 43%, p = 0.01). The percentage of patients with EF <35% at 30 days was 6% in the TH group versus 24% in the control group (p = 0.19).
CONCLUSION
In the COOL-AMI Pilot Trial, the presence of MVO in both test groups was high and extensive MVO was related with reduced LVEF. The efficacy of therapeutic hypothermia (TH) in MVO reduction should be tested in a pivotal trial.",2019,"Patients with extensive MVO showed reduced EF at 4-6 days (34% versus 43%, p = 0.01).","['conscious patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction undergoing primary PCI', 'conscious patients with anterior ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) undergoing primary PCI (PPCI', 'Conscious patients with anterior STEMI and symptom duration <6\u202fh', '50 patients were randomized; mean age was 58\u202fyears, and 86% were men']","['hypothermia', 'PPCI\u202f+\u202fTH or PPCI alone', 'therapeutic hypothermia (TH', 'intravascular cooling', 'rapid intravascular therapeutic hypothermia (TH']","['mean intravascular temperature', 'cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR', 'presence of MVO', 'reduced EF', 'proportion of patients with extensive MVO', 'MVO', 'microvascular obstruction (MVO']","[{'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C1536220', 'cui_str': 'ST Elevated Myocardial Infarction'}, {'cui': 'C0439631', 'cui_str': 'Primary operation (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0205094', 'cui_str': 'Anterior (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0683368', 'cui_str': 'symptoms'}, {'cui': 'C2926735', 'cui_str': 'Duration'}, {'cui': 'C0444504', 'cui_str': 'Mean (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0001792', 'cui_str': 'Elderly'}, {'cui': 'C0439234', 'cui_str': 'year (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0086418', 'cui_str': 'Humans'}]","[{'cui': 'C0413252', 'cui_str': 'Hypothermia due to exposure'}, {'cui': 'C0020674', 'cui_str': 'Targeted Temperature Management'}, {'cui': 'C0442123', 'cui_str': 'Intravascular (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0456962', 'cui_str': 'Rapidly'}]","[{'cui': 'C0444504', 'cui_str': 'Mean (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0442123', 'cui_str': 'Intravascular (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0039476', 'cui_str': 'Temperature'}, {'cui': 'C0917874', 'cui_str': 'Magnetic Resonance'}, {'cui': 'C0150312', 'cui_str': 'Present (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0392756', 'cui_str': 'Reduced (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C0205231', 'cui_str': 'Extensive (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0443258', 'cui_str': 'Microvascular (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0028778', 'cui_str': 'Obstruction (morphologic abnormality)'}]",50.0,0.113306,"Patients with extensive MVO showed reduced EF at 4-6 days (34% versus 43%, p = 0.01).","[{'ForeName': 'Thomas R', 'Initials': 'TR', 'LastName': 'Keeble', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Cardiology, Essex Cardiothoracic Centre, Basildon & Anglia Ruskin School of Medicine, Chelmsford, UK.

350,29368802,Dietary nitrate-induced increases in human muscle power: high versus low responders.,"Maximal neuromuscular power is an important determinant of athletic performance and also quality of life, independence, and perhaps even mortality in patient populations. We have shown that dietary nitrate (NO 3 - ), a source of nitric oxide (NO), improves muscle power in some, but not all, subjects. The present investigation was designed to identify factors contributing to this interindividual variability. Healthy men (n = 13) and women (n = 7) 22-79 year of age and weighing 52.1-114.9 kg were studied using a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, crossover design. Subjects were tested 2 h after ingesting beetroot juice (BRJ) either containing or devoid of 12.3 ± 0.8 mmol of NO 3 - . Plasma NO 3 - and nitrite (NO 2 - ) were measured as indicators of NO bioavailability and maximal knee extensor speed (V max ), power (P max ), and fatigability were determined via isokinetic dynamometry. On average, dietary NO 3 - increased (P < 0.05) P max by 4.4 ± 8.1%. Individual changes, however, ranged from -9.6 to +26.8%. This interindividual variability was not significantly correlated with age, body mass (inverse of NO 3 - dose per kg), body mass index (surrogate for body composition) or placebo trial V max or fatigue index (in vivo indicators of muscle fiber type distribution). In contrast, the relative increase in Pmax was significantly correlated (r = 0.60; P < 0.01) with the relative increase in plasma NO 2 - concentration. In multivariable analysis female sex also tended (P = 0.08) to be associated with a greater increase in Pmax. We conclude that the magnitude of the dietary NO 3 - -induced increase in muscle power is dependent upon the magnitude of the resulting increase in plasma NO 2 - and possibly female sex.",2018,"On average, dietary NO 3 - increased (P < 0.05) P max by 4.4 ± 8.1%.",['Healthy men (n\xa0=\xa013) and women (n\xa0=\xa07) 22-79\xa0year of age and weighing 52.1-114.9\xa0kg'],"['ingesting beetroot juice (BRJ) either containing or devoid of 12.3\xa0±\xa00.8\xa0mmol of NO 3 - ', 'placebo']","['human muscle power', 'Plasma', 'indicators of NO bioavailability and maximal knee extensor speed (V max ), power (P max ), and fatigability were determined via isokinetic dynamometry', 'Pmax']","[{'cui': 'C0086418', 'cui_str': 'Humans'}, {'cui': 'C0043210', 'cui_str': 'Girls'}, {'cui': 'C0439234', 'cui_str': 'year (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0001792', 'cui_str': 'Elderly'}, {'cui': 'C1305866', 'cui_str': 'Weighing patient (procedure)'}]","[{'cui': 'C0453112', 'cui_str': 'Beetroot (substance)'}, {'cui': 'C1268568', 'cui_str': 'Juice'}, {'cui': 'C0332256', 'cui_str': 'Containing (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C4517481', 'cui_str': '0.8'}, {'cui': 'C0439190', 'cui_str': 'mmol'}, {'cui': 'C1696465', 'cui_str': 'placebo'}]","[{'cui': 'C0086418', 'cui_str': 'Humans'}, {'cui': 'C0427052', 'cui_str': 'Finding of power of skeletal muscle'}, {'cui': 'C0032105', 'cui_str': 'Blood Plasma'}, {'cui': 'C0021212', 'cui_str': 'Indicators'}, {'cui': 'C0005508', 'cui_str': 'Bioavailability'}, {'cui': 'C0205289', 'cui_str': 'Maximal (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C1963703', 'cui_str': 'Knee region structure (body structure)'}, {'cui': 'C0806909', 'cui_str': 'Max'}, {'cui': 'C0231230', 'cui_str': 'Fatigability (finding)'}]",,0.0601184,"On average, dietary NO 3 - increased (P < 0.05) P max by 4.4 ± 8.1%.","[{'ForeName': 'Andrew R', 'Initials': 'AR', 'LastName': 'Coggan', 'Affiliation': 'Departments of Kinesiology, Indiana University Purdue University Indianapolis, Indianapolis, Indiana.'}, {'ForeName': 'Seth R', 'Initials': 'SR', 'LastName': 'Broadstreet', 'Affiliation': 'Departments of Kinesiology, Indiana University Purdue University Indianapolis, Indianapolis, Indiana.'}, {'ForeName': 'Deana', 'Initials': 'D', 'LastName': 'Mikhalkova', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Medicine, Washington University School of Medicine, St. Louis, Missouri.'}, {'ForeName': 'Indra', 'Initials': 'I', 'LastName': 'Bole', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Medicine, Washington University School of Medicine, St. Louis, Missouri.'}, {'ForeName': 'Joshua L', 'Initials': 'JL', 'LastName': 'Leibowitz', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Medicine, Washington University School of Medicine, St. Louis, Missouri.'}, {'ForeName': 'Ana', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Kadkhodayan', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Medicine, Washington University School of Medicine, St. Louis, Missouri.'}, {'ForeName': 'Soo', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Park', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Medicine, Washington University School of Medicine, St. Louis, Missouri.'}, {'ForeName': 'Deepak P', 'Initials': 'DP', 'LastName': 'Thomas', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Medicine, Washington University School of Medicine, St. Louis, Missouri.'}, {'ForeName': 'Dakkota', 'Initials': 'D', 'LastName': 'Thies', 'Affiliation': 'Departments of Radiology, Washington University School of Medicine, St. Louis, Missouri.'}, {'ForeName': 'Linda R', 'Initials': 'LR', 'LastName': 'Peterson', 'Affiliation': 'Departments of Radiology, Washington University School of Medicine, St. Louis, Missouri.'}]",Physiological reports,['10.14814/phy2.13575']
351,29789395,Blood Pressure-Attained Analysis of ATACH 2 Trial.,"BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE
We compared the rates of death or disability, defined by modified Rankin Scale score of 4 to 6, at 3 months in patients with intracerebral hemorrhage according to post-treatment systolic blood pressure (SBP)-attained status.
METHODS
We divided 1000 subjects with SBP ≥180 mm Hg who were randomized within 4.5 hours of symptom onset as follows: SBP <140 mm Hg achieved or not achieved within 2 hours; subjects in whom SBP <140 mm Hg was achieved within 2 hours were further divided: SBP <140 mm Hg for 21 to 22 hours (reduced and maintained) or SBP was ≥140 mm Hg for at least 2 hours during the period between 2 and 24 hours (reduced but not maintained).
RESULTS
Compared with subjects without reduction of SBP <140 mm Hg within 2 hours, subjects with reduction and maintenance of SBP <140 mm Hg within 2 hours had a similar rate of death or disability (relative risk of 0.98; 95% confidence interval, 0.74-1.29). The rates of neurological deterioration within 24 hours were significantly higher in reduced and maintained group (10.4%; relative risk, 1.98; 95% confidence interval, 1.08-3.62) and in reduced but not maintained group (11.5%; relative risk, 2.08; 95% confidence interval, 1.15-3.75) compared with reference group. The rates of cardiac-related adverse events within 7 days were higher among subjects with reduction and maintenance of SBP <140 mmHg compared to subjects without reduction (11.2% versus 6.4%).
CONCLUSIONS
No decline in death or disability but higher rates of neurological deterioration and cardiac-related adverse events were observed among intracerebral hemorrhage subjects with reduction with and without maintenance of intensive SBP goals.

352,30017006,The effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of the Incredible Years® Teacher Classroom Management programme in primary school children: results of the STARS cluster randomised controlled trial.,"BACKGROUND
We evaluated the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of the Incredible Years® Teacher Classroom Management (TCM) programme as a universal intervention, given schools' important influence on child mental health.
METHODS
A two-arm, pragmatic, parallel group, superiority, cluster randomised controlled trial recruited three cohorts of schools (clusters) between 2012 and 2014, randomising them to TCM (intervention) or Teaching As Usual (TAU-control). TCM was delivered to teachers in six whole-day sessions, spread over 6 months. Schools and teachers were not masked to allocation. The primary outcome was teacher-reported Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ) Total Difficulties score. Random effects linear regression and marginal logistic regression models using Generalised Estimating Equations were used to analyse the outcomes.
TRIAL REGISTRATION
ISRCTN84130388.
RESULTS
Eighty schools (2075 children) were enrolled; 40 (1037 children) to TCM and 40 (1038 children) to TAU. Outcome data were collected at 9, 18, and 30-months for 96, 89, and 85% of children, respectively. The intervention reduced the SDQ-Total Difficulties score at 9 months (mean (s.d.):5.5 (5.4) in TCM v. 6.2 (6.2) in TAU; adjusted mean difference = -1.0; 95% CI-1.9 to -0.1; p = 0.03) but this did not persist at 18 or 30 months. Cost-effectiveness analysis suggested that TCM may be cost-effective compared with TAU at 30-months, but this result was associated with uncertainty so no firm conclusions can be drawn. A priori subgroup analyses suggested TCM is more effective for children with poor mental health.

353,30553816,Comparison of Hemostasis Times with a Chitosan-Based Hemostatic Pad (Clo-Sur Plus Radial™) vs Mechanical Compression (TR Band®) Following Transradial Access: A pilot Study.,"BACKGROUND
Hemostasis following transradial arterial access (TRA) is usually achieved by mechanical compression. This study investigated if use of a chitosan-based hemostatic pad (Clo-Sur Plus Radial™) combined with mechanical compression (TR Band®) could shorten hemostasis time after TRA, compared with a TR Band® alone.
METHODS
40 patients undergoing cardiac catheterization and/or percutaneous coronary intervention were assigned into 4 cohorts post TRA: 10 patients received mechanical compression with a TR Band® alone for 120 min. The other 30 patients received compression with a Clo-Sur Plus Radial™ pad combined with a TR Band® for 60 min, 45 min, and 30 min, respectively (n = 10/per cohort). Times to hemostasis and access-site complications were recorded.
RESULTS
There were no differences in patient characteristics, mean dose of heparin, or mean activated clotting time value at the end of procedure among the four cohorts. Median time to hemostasis with the TR Band® alone was 120.5 min versus 60 min, 45 min and 30 min for the 60-min, 45-min, and 30-min Clo-Sur Plus Radial™ pad combined with the TR Band® cohorts, respectively. No radial artery occlusion, late rebleeding nor hematoma was noted in this series of patients.

354,30295319,A Family Focused Intervention Influences Hippocampal-Prefrontal Connectivity Through Gains in Self-Regulation.,"The stressors associated with poverty increase the risks for externalizing psychopathology; however, specific patterns of neurobiology and higher self-regulation may buffer against these effects. This study leveraged a randomized control trial, aimed at increasing self-regulation at ~11 years of age. As adults, these same individuals completed functional MRI scanning (M age = 24.88 years; intervention n = 44; control n = 49). Functional connectivity between the hippocampus and ventromedial prefrontal cortex was examined in relation to the intervention, gains in self-regulation, and present-day externalizing symptoms. Increased connectivity between these brain areas was noted in the intervention group compared to controls. Furthermore, individual gains in self-regulation, instilled by the intervention, statistically explained this brain difference. These results begin to connect neurobiological and psychosocial markers of risk and resiliency.",2019,Increased connectivity between these brain areas was noted in the intervention group compared to controls.,"['As adults, these same individuals completed functional MRI scanning (M age \xa0', '11\xa0years of age']",[],[],"[{'cui': 'C0001675', 'cui_str': 'Adult'}, {'cui': 'C0237401', 'cui_str': 'Individual (person)'}, {'cui': 'C0205197', 'cui_str': 'Complete (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0376335', 'cui_str': 'fMRI'}, {'cui': 'C0001792', 'cui_str': 'Elderly'}, {'cui': 'C0439234', 'cui_str': 'year (qualifier value)'}]",[],[],,0.0132259,Increased connectivity between these brain areas was noted in the intervention group compared to controls.,"[{'ForeName': 'Jamie L', 'Initials': 'JL', 'LastName': 'Hanson', 'Affiliation': 'University of Pittsburgh.'}, {'ForeName': 'Alysha D', 'Initials': 'AD', 'LastName': 'Gillmore', 'Affiliation': 'University of Pittsburgh.'}, {'ForeName': 'Tianyi', 'Initials': 'T', 'LastName': 'Yu', 'Affiliation': 'University of Georgia.'}, {'ForeName': 'Christopher J', 'Initials': 'CJ', 'LastName': 'Holmes', 'Affiliation': 'University of Georgia.'}, {'ForeName': 'Emily S', 'Initials': 'ES', 'LastName': 'Hallowell', 'Affiliation': 'University of Georgia.'}, {'ForeName': 'Allen W', 'Initials': 'AW', 'LastName': 'Barton', 'Affiliation': 'University of Georgia.'}, {'ForeName': 'Steven R H', 'Initials': 'SRH', 'LastName': 'Beach', 'Affiliation': 'University of Georgia.'}, {'ForeName': 'Adrianna', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Galván', 'Affiliation': 'University of California, Los Angeles.'}, {'ForeName': 'James', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'MacKillop', 'Affiliation': 'McMaster University.'}, {'ForeName': 'Michael', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Windle', 'Affiliation': 'Emory University.'}, {'ForeName': 'Edith', 'Initials': 'E', 'LastName': 'Chen', 'Affiliation': 'Northwestern University.'}, {'ForeName': 'Gregory E', 'Initials': 'GE', 'LastName': 'Miller', 'Affiliation': 'Northwestern University.'}, {'ForeName': 'Lawrence H', 'Initials': 'LH', 'LastName': 'Sweet', 'Affiliation': 'University of Georgia.'}, {'ForeName': 'Gene H', 'Initials': 'GH', 'LastName': 'Brody', 'Affiliation': 'University of Georgia.'}]",Child development,['10.1111/cdev.13154']
355,31227493,How do the costs of physical therapy and arthroscopic partial meniscectomy compare? A trial-based economic evaluation of two treatments in patients with meniscal tears alongside the ESCAPE study.,"OBJECTIVES
To examine whether physical therapy (PT) is cost-effective compared with arthroscopic partial meniscectomy (APM) in patients with a non-obstructive meniscal tear, we performed a full trial-based economic evaluation from a societal perspective. In a secondary analysis-this paper-we examined whether PT is non-inferior to APM.
METHODS
We recruited patients aged 45-70 years with a non-obstructive meniscal tear in nine Dutch hospitals. Resource use was measured using web-based questionnaires. Measures of effectiveness included knee function using the International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC) and quality-adjusted life-years (QALYs). Follow-up was 24 months. Uncertainty was assessed using bootstrapping techniques. The non-inferiority margins for societal costs, the IKDC and QALYs, were €670, 8 points and 0.057 points, respectively.
RESULTS
We randomly assigned 321 patients to PT (n=162) or APM (n=159). PT was associated with significantly lower costs after 24 months compared with APM (-€1803; 95% CI -€3008 to -€838). The probability of PT being cost-effective compared with APM was 1.00 at a willingness to pay of €0/unit of effect for the IKDC (knee function) and QALYs (quality of life) and decreased with increasing values of willingness to pay. The probability that PT is non-inferior to APM was 0.97 for all non-inferiority margins for the IKDC and 0.89 for QALYs.
CONCLUSIONS
The probability of PT being cost-effective compared with APM was relatively high at reasonable values of willingness to pay for the IKDC and QALYs. Also, PT had a relatively high probability of being non-inferior to APM for both outcomes. This warrants further deimplementation of APM in patients with non-obstructive meniscal tears.

356,31562118,Visual benefit versus visual gain: what is the effect of baseline covariants in the treatment arm relative to the control arm? A pooled analysis of ANCHOR and MARINA.,"BACKGROUND
This study aimed to elucidate visual benefits of ranibizumab in patients with neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD) compared with control arms and identify factors affecting response.
METHODS
This is a post-hoc pooled analysis of two phase III studies, ANCHOR and MARINA, of ranibizumab for the treatment of nAMD. ANCHOR included 83 international sites. MARINA included 96 sites in the USA. Analysis included patients (control, n=323; ranibizumab, n=332) with nAMD and a baseline best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) of ≥35-<85 letters.
RESULTS
Patients receiving ranibizumab achieved an adjusted mean BCVA superiority of 18.9 and 21.2 letters over 12 and 24 months, respectively, compared with control. Ranibizumab treatment, higher baseline BCVA, lower age and smaller lesion size were positively associated with the ability to achieve BCVA >69 letters. Patients with the highest baseline BCVA had lowest BCVA gains. Ranibizumab treatment, lower baseline BCVA, lower age and smaller lesion size were identified as significant predictors of BCVA gain from baseline at month 24 (all p<0.0001). However, the difference in mean BCVA gains at month 24 between treatment and control groups was similar for all baseline BCVA subgroups (≥35-<55 letters, 21.9 letters; ≥55-<70 letters, 25.2 letters; ≥70-<85 letters, 19.3 letters).
CONCLUSIONS
Higher baseline BCVA is associated with lower BCVA gains but a greater likelihood of achieving good final BCVA >69 letters due to smaller gains needed to achieve response. Visual benefits, including maintenance of visual acuity (VA), final VA achieved and relative gain compared with natural disease progression, should be considered when assessing treatment response in nAMD.",2020,"Ranibizumab treatment, lower baseline BCVA, lower age and smaller lesion size were identified as significant predictors of BCVA gain from baseline at month 24 (all p<0.0001).","['patients with neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD', 'Analysis included patients (control, n=323; ranibizumab, n=332) with nAMD and a baseline best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) of ≥35-<85 letters']","['ranibizumab', 'Ranibizumab', 'Visual benefit versus visual gain']","['BCVA gains', 'lower baseline BCVA, lower age and smaller lesion size', 'higher baseline BCVA, lower age and smaller lesion size', 'mean BCVA superiority', 'Visual benefits, including maintenance of visual acuity (VA', 'BCVA gain', 'lowest BCVA gains', 'mean BCVA gains']","[{'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C0271084', 'cui_str': 'Neovascular age-related macular degeneration'}, {'cui': 'C1524024', 'cui_str': 'analysis'}, {'cui': 'C0332257', 'cui_str': 'Including (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C2587213', 'cui_str': 'Controlled (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C1566537', 'cui_str': 'ranibizumab'}, {'cui': 'C1690532', 'cui_str': 'Best corrected visual acuity'}, {'cui': 'C1096774', 'cui_str': 'Letter'}]","[{'cui': 'C1566537', 'cui_str': 'ranibizumab'}, {'cui': 'C0234621', 'cui_str': 'Visual (qualifier value)'}]","[{'cui': 'C0205251', 'cui_str': 'Low (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0001792', 'cui_str': 'Elderly'}, {'cui': 'C0547044', 'cui_str': 'Lesser (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0449453', 'cui_str': 'Lesion size'}, {'cui': 'C0205250', 'cui_str': 'High (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0444504', 'cui_str': 'Mean (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0234621', 'cui_str': 'Visual (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0332257', 'cui_str': 'Including (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0024501', 'cui_str': 'Maintenances'}, {'cui': 'C0042812', 'cui_str': 'Visual Acuity'}]",69.0,0.150313,"Ranibizumab treatment, lower baseline BCVA, lower age and smaller lesion size were identified as significant predictors of BCVA gain from baseline at month 24 (all p<0.0001).","[{'ForeName': 'Adnan', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Tufail', 'Affiliation': 'Medical Retina, Moorfields Eye Hospital & Institute of Ophthalmology UCL, London, UK adnan.tufail@moorfields.nhs.uk.'}, {'ForeName': 'Philippe', 'Initials': 'P', 'LastName': 'Margaron', 'Affiliation': 'Novartis Pharma, Basel, Switzerland.'}, {'ForeName': 'Tadhg', 'Initials': 'T', 'LastName': 'Guerin', 'Affiliation': 'Theravance Biopharma, Dublin, Ireland.'}, {'ForeName': 'Michael', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Larsen', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Ophthalmology, Rigshospitalet & Faculty of Health and Medical Sciences, University of Copenhagen, Copenhagen, Denmark.'}]",The British journal of ophthalmology,['10.1136/bjophthalmol-2018-313682']

358,31836635,Cost-effectiveness of strategies preventing late-onset infection in preterm infants.,"OBJECTIVE
Developing a model to analyse the cost-effectiveness of interventions preventing late-onset infection (LOI) in preterm infants and applying it to the evaluation of anti-microbial impregnated peripherally inserted central catheters (AM-PICCs) compared with standard PICCs (S-PICCs).
DESIGN
Model-based cost-effectiveness analysis, using data from the Preventing infection using Antimicrobial Impregnated Long Lines (PREVAIL) randomised controlled trial linked to routine healthcare data, supplemented with published literature. The model assumes that LOI increases the risk of neurodevelopmental impairment (NDI).
SETTING
Neonatal intensive care units in the UK National Health Service (NHS).
PATIENTS
Infants born ≤32 weeks gestational age, requiring a 1 French gauge PICC.
INTERVENTIONS
AM-PICC and S-PICC.
MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES
Life expectancy, quality-adjusted life years (QALYs) and healthcare costs over the infants' expected lifetime.
RESULTS
Severe NDI reduces life expectancy by 14.79 (95% CI 4.43 to 26.68; undiscounted) years, 10.63 (95% CI 7.74 to 14.02; discounted) QALYs and costs £19 057 (95% CI £14 197; £24697; discounted) to the NHS. If LOI causes NDI, the maximum acquisition price of an intervention reducing LOI risk by 5% is £120. AM-PICCs increase costs (£54.85 (95% CI £25.95 to £89.12)) but have negligible impact on health outcomes (-0.01 (95% CI -0.09 to 0.04) QALYs), compared with S-PICCs. The NHS can invest up to £2.4 million in research to confirm that AM-PICCs are not cost-effective.
CONCLUSIONS
The model quantifies health losses and additional healthcare costs caused by NDI and LOI during neonatal care. Given these consequences, interventions preventing LOI, even by a small extent, can be cost-effective. AM-PICCs, being less effective and more costly than S-PICC, are not likely to be cost-effective.

359,31738834,Randomized multicenter trial of sirolimus vs prednisone as initial therapy for standard-risk acute GVHD: the BMT CTN 1501 trial.,"Clinical- and biomarker-based tools may identify a lower-risk acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) population amenable to novel, reduced-intensity treatments. Previous data suggest sirolimus may rival standard of care prednisone. We conducted a National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute/National Cancer Institute-funded Blood and Marrow Transplant Clinical Trials Network multicenter, open-label, randomized phase 2 trial to estimate the difference in day 28 complete response (CR)/partial response (PR) rates for sirolimus vs prednisone as initial treatment of patients with standard risk (SR) acute GVHD as defined by the Minnesota (MN) GVHD Risk Score and Ann Arbor (AA1/2) biomarker status. A total of 127 MN-SR patients were randomized (1:1), and 122 were AA1/2 (sirolimus, n = 58; prednisone, n = 64). Others were AA3 (n = 4), or AA status missing (n = 1). The day 28 CR/PR rates were similar for sirolimus 64.8% (90% confidence interval [CI], 54.1%-75.5%) vs 73% (90% CI, 63.8%-82.2%) for prednisone. The day 28 rate of CR/PR with prednisone ≤0.25 mg/kg/day was significantly higher for sirolimus than prednisone (66.7% vs 31.7%; P < .001). No differences were detected in steroid-refractory acute GVHD, disease-free survival, relapse, nonrelapse mortality, or overall survival. Sirolimus was associated with reduced steroid exposure and hyperglycemia, reduced grade 2 to 3 infections, improvement in immune suppression discontinuation and patient-reported quality of life, and increased risk for thrombotic microangiopathy. For patients with clinical- and biomarker-based SR acute GVHD, sirolimus demonstrates similar overall initial treatment efficacy as prednisone. In addition, sirolimus therapy spares steroid exposure and allied toxicity, does not compromise long-term survival outcomes, and is associated with improved patient-reported quality of life.

360,31914878,Development of Predictive Equations for Nocturnal Hypertension and Nondipping Systolic Blood Pressure.,"Background Nocturnal hypertension, defined by a mean asleep systolic blood pressure (SBP)/diastolic blood pressure (BP) ≥120/70 mm Hg, and nondipping SBP, defined by an awake-to-asleep decline in SBP <10%, are each associated with increased risk for cardiovascular disease. Methods and Results We developed predictive equations to identify adults with a high probability of having nocturnal hypertension or nondipping SBP using data from the CARDIA (Coronary Artery Risk Development in Young Adults) study (n=787), JHS (Jackson Heart Study) (n=1063), IDH (Improving the Detection of Hypertension) study (n=395), and MHT (Masked Hypertension) study (n=772) who underwent 24-hour ambulatory BP monitoring. Participants were randomized to derivation (n=2511) or validation (n=506) data sets. The prevalence rates of nocturnal hypertension and nondipping SBP were 39.7% and 44.9% in the derivation data set, respectively, and 36.6% and 44.5% in the validation data set, respectively. The predictive equation for nocturnal hypertension included age, race/ethnicity, smoking status, neck circumference, height, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, albumin/creatinine ratio, and clinic SBP and diastolic BP. The predictive equation for nondipping SBP included age, sex, race/ethnicity, waist circumference, height, alcohol use, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and albumin/creatinine ratio.

361,32208178,Utilizing Community Engagement Studios to inform patient experience in a multicenter randomized control trial.,"OBJECTIVE
To determine whether a community engagement approach can provide feedback for implementation of valuable measures to improve the outcome of a clinical trial.
METHODS
Review of the results from a Community Engagement Studio (CE Studio) for the ValEAR trial: an NIH-funded, multi-institutional study designed to research the efficacy of valganciclovir in the treatment of congenital cytomegalovirus (cCMV)-induced hearing loss. Participants were given information about the trial then asked a series of questions to assess their input on the merits or weaknesses affecting their participation in the trial.
RESULTS
Thirteen parents whose children have congenital CMV infection were recruited for the CE Studio. The overall theme from the responses was a desire to advance the field but a need to clearly understand the risks and benefits of participation. Many requested more educational resources, more printed materials, or greater access to researchers if questions arose. Many welcomed having patient stories and information displayed in a dedicated website or through social media.
CONCLUSION
This community engagement approach provided useful feedback from families similar to those expected to be potential enrollees in the CMV ValEAR trial. In response to parental comments, two educational videos were created: one on the general topic of cCMV and the other specific to the CMV ValEAR trial. Researchers who wish to optimize their clinical trial's success should consider incorporating a CE Studio into their study design.",2020,This community engagement approach provided useful feedback from families similar to those expected to be potential enrollees in the CMV ValEAR trial.,"['congenital cytomegalovirus (cCMV)-induced hearing loss', 'Thirteen parents whose children have congenital CMV infection were recruited for the CE Studio']","['Community Engagement Studio (CE Studio', 'valganciclovir']",[],"[{'cui': 'C1744681', 'cui_str': 'Congenital (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0010825', 'cui_str': 'Salivary Gland Viruses'}, {'cui': 'C0205263', 'cui_str': 'Induced (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C3715149', 'cui_str': '13'}, {'cui': 'C0085092', 'cui_str': 'Parenting'}, {'cui': 'C0008059', 'cui_str': 'Child'}, {'cui': 'C0158945', 'cui_str': 'Congenital cytomegalovirus infection (disorder)'}]","[{'cui': 'C0009462', 'cui_str': 'Community'}, {'cui': 'C0909381', 'cui_str': 'valganciclovir'}]",[],13.0,0.130066,This community engagement approach provided useful feedback from families similar to those expected to be potential enrollees in the CMV ValEAR trial.,"[{'ForeName': 'Christopher', 'Initials': 'C', 'LastName': 'Nielson', 'Affiliation': 'Division of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, University of Utah School of Medicine, Salt Lake City, UT, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Yiqing', 'Initials': 'Y', 'LastName': 'Huang', 'Affiliation': 'Division of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, University of Utah School of Medicine, Salt Lake City, UT, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'C Amanda', 'Initials': 'CA', 'LastName': 'Kull', 'Affiliation': 'Division of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, University of Utah School of Medicine, Salt Lake City, UT, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Albert H', 'Initials': 'AH', 'LastName': 'Park', 'Affiliation': 'Division of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, University of Utah School of Medicine, Salt Lake City, UT, USA.

362,32305492,Probiotics and fructo-oligosaccharide intervention modulate the microbiota-gut brain axis to improve autism spectrum reducing also the hyper-serotonergic state and the dopamine metabolism disorder.,"The prevalence of autism spectrum disorders (ASD) is increasing, but its etiology remains elusive and hence an effective treatment is not available. Previous research conducted on animal models suggests that microbiota-gut-brain axis may contribute to ASD pathology and more human research is needed. This study was divided into two stages,.At the discovery stage, we compared the differences in gut microbiota profiles (using 16S rRNA sequencing), fecal SCFAs (using GC-MS) and plasma neurotransmitters (using UHPLC-MS/MS) of 26 children with ASD and 24 normal children. All 26 children with ASD participated in the intervention stage, and we measured the gut microbiota profiles, SCFAs and neurotransmitters before and after probiotics + FOS (n = 16) or placebo supplementation (n = 10). We found that gut microbiota was in a state of dysbiosis and significantly lower levels of Bifidobacteriales and Bifidobacterium longum were observed at the discovery stage in children with ASD. An increase in beneficial bacteria (Bifidobacteriales and B. longum) and suppression of suspected pathogenic bacteria (Clostridium) emerged after probiotics + FOS intervention, with significant reduction in the severity of autism and gastrointestinal symptoms. Compared to children in the control group, significantly lower levels of acetic acid, propionic acid and butyric acid were found, and a hyperserotonergic state (increased serotonin) and dopamine metabolism disorder (decreased homovanillic acid) were observed in children with ASD. Interestingly, the above SCFAs in children with autism significantly elevated after probiotics + FOS intervention and approached those in the control group. In addition, our data demonstrated that decreased serotonin and increased homovanillic acid emerged after probiotics + FOS intervention. However, the above-mentioned changes did not appear in the placebo group for ASD children. Probiotics + FOS intervention can modulate gut microbiota, SCFAs and serotonin in association with improved ASD symptoms, including a hyper-serotonergic state and dopamine metabolism disorder.",2020,"Compared to children in the control group, significantly lower levels of acetic acid, propionic acid and butyric acid were found, and a hyperserotonergic state (increased serotonin) and dopamine metabolism disorder (decreased homovanillic acid) were observed in children with ASD.","['26 children with ASD', '26 children with ASD and 24 normal children', 'autism', 'autism spectrum disorders (ASD', 'children with ASD']","['Probiotics and fructo-oligosaccharide intervention', 'placebo supplementation', 'Probiotics\u2009+\u2009FOS intervention', 'placebo']","['gut microbiota profiles (using 16S rRNA sequencing), fecal SCFAs (using GC-MS) and plasma neurotransmitters', 'hyperserotonergic state (increased serotonin) and dopamine metabolism disorder (decreased homovanillic acid', 'severity of autism and gastrointestinal symptoms', 'acetic acid, propionic acid and butyric acid', 'homovanillic acid', 'beneficial bacteria (Bifidobacteriales and B. longum) and suppression of suspected pathogenic bacteria (Clostridium']","[{'cui': 'C0008059', 'cui_str': 'Child'}, {'cui': 'C0524528', 'cui_str': 'Autism spectrum disorder'}, {'cui': 'C0205307', 'cui_str': 'Normal'}, {'cui': 'C0004352', 'cui_str': 'Autistic disorder'}]","[{'cui': 'C0525033', 'cui_str': 'Probiotic'}, {'cui': 'C0873033', 'cui_str': 'fructooligosaccharide'}, {'cui': 'C0184661', 'cui_str': 'Procedure'}, {'cui': 'C0032042', 'cui_str': 'Sham Treatment'}, {'cui': 'C0242297', 'cui_str': 'Nutritional supplementation'}, {'cui': 'C0087140', 'cui_str': 'v-fos Oncogenes'}]","[{'cui': 'C2985398', 'cui_str': 'Intestinal Microbiota'}, {'cui': 'C0035701', 'cui_str': 'Ribosomal RNA'}, {'cui': 'C0162801', 'cui_str': 'Analysis, Sequence'}, {'cui': 'C0015733', 'cui_str': 'Feces'}, {'cui': 'C0015691', 'cui_str': 'Short chain fatty acid'}, {'cui': 'C0024868', 'cui_str': 'Chromatography, Gas-Mass Spectrometry'}, {'cui': 'C0032105', 'cui_str': 'blood plasma'}, {'cui': 'C0027908', 'cui_str': 'Neurotransmitter'}, {'cui': 'C1301808', 'cui_str': 'State'}, {'cui': 'C0205217', 'cui_str': 'Increased'}, {'cui': 'C0036751', 'cui_str': 'Serotonin'}, {'cui': 'C0013030', 'cui_str': 'Dopamine'}, {'cui': 'C0025517', 'cui_str': 'Metabolic disease'}, {'cui': 'C0205216', 'cui_str': 'Decreased'}, {'cui': 'C0019903', 'cui_str': 'Homovanillic acid'}, {'cui': 'C0439793', 'cui_str': 'Severities'}, {'cui': 'C0004352', 'cui_str': 'Autistic disorder'}, {'cui': 'C0426576', 'cui_str': 'Gastrointestinal symptom'}, {'cui': 'C0000983', 'cui_str': 'Acetic Acid'}, {'cui': 'C0033482', 'cui_str': 'Propanoic Acids'}, {'cui': 'C0006523', 'cui_str': 'Butanoic Acids'}, {'cui': 'C0004611', 'cui_str': 'Bacterium'}, {'cui': 'C1037103', 'cui_str': 'Bifidobacteriales'}, {'cui': 'C1564227', 'cui_str': 'Longum'}, {'cui': 'C0221103', 'cui_str': 'Binocular vision suppression'}, {'cui': 'C0750491', 'cui_str': 'Suspected'}, {'cui': 'C0450254', 'cui_str': 'Pathogenic organism'}, {'cui': 'C0009054', 'cui_str': 'Clostridium'}]",26.0,0.0229384,"Compared to children in the control group, significantly lower levels of acetic acid, propionic acid and butyric acid were found, and a hyperserotonergic state (increased serotonin) and dopamine metabolism disorder (decreased homovanillic acid) were observed in children with ASD.","[{'ForeName': 'Ying', 'Initials': 'Y', 'LastName': 'Wang', 'Affiliation': ""Shandong Children's Microbiome Center, Research Institute of Pediatrics, Qilu Children's Hospital of Shandong University, Jinan, Shandong, China; State Key Laboratory of Microbial Technology, Shandong University, Qingdao, Shandong, China.

363,31112621,"Pharmacokinetics and safety of tobramycin nebulization with the I-neb and PARI-LC Plus in children with cystic fibrosis: A randomized, crossover study.","AIMS
We aimed to compare the pharmacokinetics (PK) and safety profile of tobramycin inhalation solution (TIS) using the I-neb device to the standard PARI-LC Plus nebulizer in children with cystic fibrosis.
METHODS
A randomized, open-label, crossover study was performed. In 2 separate study visits, blood samples from 22 children were collected following TIS nebulization with I-neb (75 mg) and PARI-LC Plus (300 mg). Study visits were separated by 1 month, in which 1 of the study nebulizers was used twice daily. Tobramycin PK for both nebulizers was established using measured tobramycin concentrations and Bayesian PK modelling software. Hearing and renal function tests were performed to test for aminoglycoside associated toxicity. In addition to standard estimated glomerular filtration rate values, biomarkers for tubular injury (KIM-1 and NAG) were measured. Patient and nebulizer satisfaction were assessed.
RESULTS
Inhalations were well tolerated and serum trough concentrations below the predefined toxic limit were reached with no significant differences in PK parameters between nebulizers. Results of audiometry and estimated glomerular filtration rate revealed no abnormalities. However, increased urinary NAG/creatinine ratios at visit 2 for both nebulizers suggest TIS-induced subclinical tubular kidney injury. Nebulization time was 50% shorter and patient satisfaction was significantly higher with the I-neb.
CONCLUSIONS
Nebulization of 75 mg TIS with the I-neb in children with cystic fibrosis resulted in comparable systemic exposure to 300 mg TIS with the PARI-LC Plus and was well tolerated and preferred over the PARI-LC Plus. Long-term safety of TIS nebulization should be monitored clinically, especially regarding the effects on tubular kidney injury.",2019,"RESULTS

364,31795820,Does Animation Improve Comprehension of Risk Information in Patients with Low Health Literacy? A Randomized Trial.,"Introduction. Enhanced visual effects, like animation, have the potential to improve comprehension of probabilistic risk information, particularly for those with lower health literacy. We tested the effect of presentation format on comprehension of colorectal cancer (CRC) screening probabilities to identify optimal risk communication strategies. Methods. Participants from a community foodbank and a cancer prevention center were randomized to 1 of 3 CRC screening risk presentations. The presentations used identical content but varied in format: 1) video with animated pictographs, 2) video with static pictographs, and 3) audiobooklet with static pictographs. Participants completed pre- and postpresentation surveys. The primary outcome was knowledge of probability/risk information regarding CRC screening, calculated as total, verbatim, and gist scores. Results. In total, 187 participants completed the study and were included in this analysis. Median age was 58 years (interquartile range [IQR]: 14 years), most participants were women (63%), and almost half had a high school education or less (46%). Approximately one-quarter had inadequate health literacy (Short Test of Functional Health Literacy in Adults marginal/inadequate: 28%; Brief Health Literacy Screener low: 18%), and about half had low numeracy (Subjective Numeracy Scale low: 54%; Graphical Literacy Measure low: 50%). We found no significant differences in total, verbatim, or gist knowledge across presentation formats (all P > 0.05). Discussion. Use of an animated pictograph to communicate risk does not appear to augment or impede knowledge of risk information.

365,31237173,Impact of Evidence-Based Stroke Care on Patient Outcomes: A Multilevel Analysis of an International Study.,"Background The uptake of proven stroke treatments varies widely. We aimed to determine the association of evidence-based processes of care for acute ischemic stroke ( AIS ) and clinical outcome of patients who participated in the HEADPOST (Head Positioning in Acute Stroke Trial), a multicenter cluster crossover trial of lying flat versus sitting up, head positioning in acute stroke. Methods and Results Use of 8 AIS processes of care were considered: reperfusion therapy in eligible patients; acute stroke unit care; antihypertensive, antiplatelet, statin, and anticoagulation for atrial fibrillation; dysphagia assessment; and physiotherapist review. Hierarchical, mixed, logistic regression models were performed to determine associations with good outcome (modified Rankin Scale scores 0-2) at 90 days, adjusted for patient and hospital variables. Among 9485 patients with AIS, implementation of all processes of care in eligible patients, or ""defect-free"" care, was associated with improved outcome (odds ratio, 1.40; 95% CI, 1.18-1.65) and better survival (odds ratio, 2.23; 95% CI , 1.62-3.09). Defect-free stroke care was also significantly associated with excellent outcome (modified Rankin Scale score 0-1) (odds ratio, 1.22; 95% CI , 1.04-1.43). No hospital characteristic was independently predictive of outcome. Only 1445 (15%) of eligible patients with AIS received all processes of care, with significant regional variations in overall and individual rates. Conclusions Use of evidence-based care is associated with improved clinical outcome in AIS . Strategies are required to address regional variation in the use of proven AIS treatments.

We investigated the effects of double-blind radiofrequency exposure to 1,930-1,990 MHz, UMTS 3G signalling standard, time-averaged 10 g specific absorption rate of 1.6 W kg -1 on self-evaluated sleepiness and objective electroencephalogram architecture during sleep. Eighteen subjects aged 18-19 years underwent 3.0 hr of controlled exposure on two consecutive days 19:45-23:00 hours (including 15-min break); active or sham prior to sleep, followed by full-night 7.5 hr polysomnographic recordings in a sleep laboratory. In a cross-over design, the procedure was repeated a week later with the second condition. The results for sleep electroencephalogram architecture showed no change after radiofrequency exposure in sleep stages compared with sham, but power spectrum analyses showed a reduction of activity within the slow spindle range (11.0-12.75 Hz). No differences were found for self-evaluated health symptoms, performance on the Stroop colour word test during exposure or for sleep quality.

367,30676671,A randomized controlled trial of bedtime music for insomnia disorder.,"Music is often used as a self-help tool to alleviate insomnia. To evaluate the effect of bedtime music listening as a strategy for improving insomnia, we conducted an assessor-blinded randomized controlled trial. Fifty-seven persons with insomnia disorder were included and randomized to music intervention (n = 19), audiobook control (n = 19) or a waitlist control group (n = 19). The primary outcome measure was the Insomnia Severity Index. In addition, we used polysomnography and actigraphy to evaluate objective measures of sleep, and assessed sleep quality and quality of life. The results showed no clear effect of music on insomnia symptoms as the group × time interaction only approached significance (effect size = 0.71, p = .06), though there was a significant improvement in insomnia severity within the music group. With regard to the secondary outcomes, we found a significant effect of the music intervention on perceived sleep improvement and quality of life, but no changes in the objective measures of sleep. In conclusion, music listening at bedtime appears to have a positive impact on sleep perception and quality of life, but no clear effect on insomnia severity.

368,31215299,Efficacy of Long-Term Remote Ischemic Conditioning on Vascular and Neuronal Function in Type 2 Diabetes Patients With Peripheral Arterial Disease.,"Background Peripheral artery disease is a major socioeconomic challenge in the diabetes mellitus community and non-surgical treatment options are limited. As remote ischemic conditioning ( RIC ) improves vascular function and attenuates ischemia-induced tissue damage, we investigated the efficacy of RIC on vascular and neuronal function in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients with peripheral artery disease. Methods and Results We enrolled 36 type 2 diabetes mellitus patients with moderately reduced toe pressure (40-70 mm Hg) in a randomized sham-controlled double-masked trial. Patients were allocated to 12 weeks once daily upper arm cuff-based treatment of either RIC treatment (4 cycles of 5-minute ischemia followed by 5-minute reperfusion) or similar sham-device treatment. Primary outcome was transcutaneous tissue oxygen tension of the instep of the feet. Secondary outcomes were aortic pulse wave velocity, toe pressure and toe-brachial index. Tertiary outcomes were markers of peripheral and autonomic nerve function. We enrolled 36 patients (83% men). Patients had a mean ( SD ) age of 70.7 years (6.8), diabetes mellitus duration of 18.4 years (8.3), HbA1c (gycated hemoglobin) of 59.7 mmol/mol (11.2). Eighty percent had peripheral symmetrical neuropathy. The mean difference in change of transcutaneous tissue oxygen tension from baseline between the RIC and sham-treated groups was -0.03 mm Hg ([95% CI -0.1; 0.04], P=0.438). RIC did not elicit any change in additional outcomes. Three patients experienced transient skin petechiae in the treated arm. Conclusions Long-term repeated remote ischemic conditioning treatment have no effect on tissue oxygenation, vascular or neuronal function in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and moderate peripheral artery disease.

Intravenous (IV) ibuprofen was approved by the FDA for use in pediatric patients in November 2015. The objective of this study was to compare bleeding rates in pediatric tonsillectomy patients who received intraoperative intravenous ibuprofen versus those who did not. Secondary objectives included analyzing factors that correlated with return to the Emergency Department (ED) for pain or dehydration.
METHODS
Charts were reviewed for all patients 0-18 years of age who underwent a tonsillectomy with or without adenoidectomy at a tertiary care children's hospital from 1/1/2017 through 5/21/2018. Demographic information and perioperative medications including the use of intraoperative intravenous ibuprofen were recorded. ED visits and operating room (OR) returns for bleeding were tracked for up to 30 days after surgery.
RESULTS
1085 charts were analyzed. Intraoperative IV ibuprofen was used in 132 cases (12.2%). Primary bleeds, defined as bleeding within 24 h of surgery, occurred in 1 (0.76%) of 132 patients who received IV ibuprofen, and 1 (0.10%) of 953 patients who did not receive IV ibuprofen. Secondary bleeds, defined as bleeds after 24 h from surgery occurred in 2 (1.52%) of 132 patients who received IV ibuprofen and 38 (3.99%) of 953 patients who did not receive IV ibuprofen. No statistical difference was found between the two groups in rates of overall (primary plus secondary) bleeding requiring return to ED (p = 0.759) or return to OR (p = 0.710).
CONCLUSION
The observed bleeding rate after pediatric tonsillectomy was not statistically different in patients who received intraoperative IV ibuprofen versus those who did not receive this medication.

371,31931884,"Design of a randomized controlled trial to Link Infectious and Narcology Care (LINC-II) in St. Petersburg, Russia.","BACKGROUND
If Russia is to achieve the UNAIDS 90-90-90 HIV targets, better approaches to engage, effectively treat, and retain patients in care are needed. This paper describes the protocol of a randomized controlled trial (RCT) testing the effectiveness of LINC-II, a strength-based case management program for HIV-positive people who inject drugs (PWID) to increase rates of HIV viral suppression, ART initiation, and opioid abstinence.
METHODS
This RCT will enroll and randomize 240 participants, recruited from a narcology (addiction care) hospital in St. Petersburg, Russia. Participants are randomized to the intervention or control arms. Those in the intervention arm receive: (1) strengths-based HIV case management supporting coordinated care; (2) rapid ART initiation; and (3) pharmacotherapy for opioid use disorder. We will evaluate the intervention's effectiveness compared to standard of care on the following outcomes: (1) undetectable HIV viral load at 12 months (primary); (2) initiation of ART within 28 days of randomization; (3) change in CD4 count from baseline to 12 months; (4) retention in HIV care (i.e., ≥ 1 visit to medical care in 2 consecutive 6 month periods); (5) undetectable HIV viral load at 6 months; and (6) past 30-day opioid abstinence (at 6 and at 12 months).
DISCUSSION
This RCT will assess the LINC-II intervention in an urban Russian setting. If effective, it will offer a new approach for increasing the uptake of both HIV and opioid use disorder treatment and coordination of these modalities in standard Eastern European clinical settings.

372,31077425,Therapeutic concentration achievement and allograft survival comparing usage of conventional tacrolimus doses and CYP3A5 genotype-guided doses in renal transplantation patients.,"AIMS
Although cytochromeP450(CYP)3A5 gene polymorphism affects personalized tacrolimus doses, there is no consensus as to whether CYP3A5 genotypes should be determined to adjust the doses. The aims were to compare the therapeutic ranges and clinical outcomes between the conventional and genotype-guided tacrolimus doses.
METHODS
This randomized controlled study compared 63 cases of the conventional tacrolimus dose group (0.1 mg/kg/day) with 62 cases of the genotype-guided doses group of 0.125, 0.1 and 0.08 mg/kg for CYP3A5*1/*1, *1/*3, and *3/*3 genotypes for the initial 3 days of kidney transplantation. After day 3, dose adjustment occurred in both groups to achieve therapeutic concentrations.
RESULTS
The genotype-guided group had an increased proportion of patients with tacrolimus concentrations in the therapeutic range at the steady state on day 3 (40.3 vs 23.8%, P = .048). A lower proportion of over-therapeutic concentration patients was noted in the genotype-guided group in the CYP3A5*3/*3 genotype (9.7 vs 27%, P = .013). Unexpectedly, more delayed graft functions (DGFs) were in the genotype-guided group (41.9 vs 22.2%, P = .018) especially in the CYP3A5*1/*1 participants who might have had an aggravated DGF by a longer ischaemic time and higher serum donor creatinine levels than in the control group. There were no significant differences of glomerular filtration rates or graft or patient survivals over a median 37-month follow-up period.
CONCLUSIONS

373,31108564,The effect of providing prescribing recommendations on appropriate prescribing: A cluster-randomized controlled trial in older adults in a preoperative setting.,"AIMS
The Systematic Tool to Reduce Inappropriate Prescribing is a method to assess patient's medication and has been incorporated into a clinical decision support system: STRIP Assistant. Our aim was to evaluate the effect of recommendations generated using STRIP Assistant on appropriate prescribing and mortality in a preoperative setting.
METHODS
This cluster-randomized controlled trial was carried out at the preoperative geriatric outpatient clinic. Residents who performed a comprehensive geriatric assessment were randomized to the control group and intervention group in a 1:1 ratio. Visiting patients aged 70 years or older on 5 or more medications were included.
INTERVENTION
prescribing recommendations were generated by a physician using STRIP Assistant and given to the resident. Control group residents performed a medication review according to usual care.
PRIMARY OUTCOME
number of medication changes made because of potential prescribing omissions (PPOs), potentially inappropriate medications (PIMs), and suboptimal dosages according to the prescribing recommendations. Secondary outcome: 3-month postoperative mortality.
RESULTS
65 intervention and 59 control patients were included, attended by 34 residents. Significantly more medication changes because of PPOs and PIMs were made in the intervention group than in the control group (PPOs 26.2% vs 3.4%, odds ratio 0.04 [95% confidence interval 0.003-0.46] P < .05; PIMS 46.2% vs 15.3% odds ratio 0.14 [95% confidence interval 0.07-0.57] P < .005). There were no differences in dose adjustments or in postoperative mortality.

374,31141195,Population pharmacokinetics of abacavir and lamivudine in severely malnourished human immunodeficiency virus-infected children in relation to treatment outcomes.,"AIMS
Describe the pharmacokinetics (PK) of the antiretroviral drugs abacavir and lamivudine in malnourished paediatric patients and relate to viral load outcomes after 12 and 48 weeks of treatment.
METHODS
Severely malnourished human immunodeficiency virus-infected children were randomized to early (within 14 days) or delayed (after nutritional recovery) initiation of antiretroviral treatment (ART) using World Health Organization weight-band dosages. Abacavir and lamivudine concentrations were measured as a secondary objective on day 1 and day 14 and patients were followed-up to week 48. Population PK of abacavir and lamivudine were described using NONMEM.
RESULTS
In total, 623 abacavir and 627 lamivudine concentrations were collected from 75 paediatric patients aged 0.1-10.8 (median 1.4) years. Abacavir PK was described by a 2-compartment model, patients randomized to early ART showed increased bioavailability of 31%. Apparent clearance (CL/F, L/h/7 kg) of abacavir increased from day 1 to day 14 from 3.33 (95% confidence interval 2.71-4.12) to 5.86 (95% confidence interval 4.78-7.3). A 1-compartment model described lamivudine PK, variability on CL/F was explained by maturation with age, with age at half-matured CL/F being 4 months. For both drugs allometrically scaled total body weight was related to CL/F and apparent volume of distribution. PK exposure did not correlate with virological outcomes or death at 12 or 48 weeks.
CONCLUSION
Increases in Abacavir's CL/F between day 1 to day 14, bioavailability and PK variability with early start of ART was found in this cohort of severely malnourished children; however, these changes did not influence virological outcomes. The study supports the use of weight-band dosage tables.",2019,"PK exposure did not correlate with virological outcomes or death at 12 or 48 weeks.

Ragweed sublingual immunotherapy (SLIT) tablet reduces symptoms and symptom-relieving medication use in adults with allergic rhinitis with or without conjunctivitis (AR/C) but has not been evaluated in children.
OBJECTIVE
This international, multicenter, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial evaluated the efficacy and safety of ragweed SLIT-tablet in children with AR/C.
METHODS
Children (N = 1025; 77.7% polysensitized) aged 5 to 17 years with ragweed pollen-induced AR/C with or without asthma (FEV 1 ≥80% predicted) were randomized 1:1 to daily ragweed SLIT-tablet (12 Amb a 1-Unit) or placebo for up to 28 weeks (NCT02478398). The primary end point was the average total combined score (TCS; sum of rhinoconjunctivitis daily symptom score [DSS] and daily medication score [DMS]) during peak ragweed pollen season (RPS). Key secondary end points were TCS during the entire RPS, and DSS and DMS during the peak RPS.
RESULTS
Relative TCS (95% CI) improvements with ragweed SLIT-tablet versus placebo were -38.3% (-46.0% to -29.7%; least square [LS] mean difference, -2.73; P < .001) during peak RPS and -32.4% (-40.7% to -23.3%; LS mean difference, -1.86; P < .001) during the entire RPS. DSS and DMS during peak RPS improved with SLIT-tablet versus placebo by -35.4% (-43.2% to -26.1%; LS mean difference, -1.40; P < .001) and -47.7% (-59.8% to -32.5%; LS mean difference, -1.84; P < .001), respectively. Asthma DSS, short-acting β-agonist use, and nocturnal awakenings during peak RPS improved with SLIT-tablet versus placebo by -30.7%, -68.1%, and -75.1%, respectively (all nominal P ≤ .02). No events of anaphylaxis, airway compromise, or severe treatment-related systemic allergic reactions were reported.

376,32273271,A Randomized Controlled Trial Comparing Glargine U300 and Glargine U100 for the Inpatient Management of Medicine and Surgery Patients With Type 2 Diabetes: Glargine U300 Hospital Trial.,"OBJECTIVE
The role of U300 glargine insulin for the inpatient management of type 2 diabetes (T2D) has not been determined. We compared the safety and efficacy of glargine U300 versus glargine U100 in noncritically ill patients with T2D.
RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS
This prospective, open-label, randomized clinical trial included 176 patients with poorly controlled T2D (admission blood glucose [BG] 228 ± 82 mg/dL and HbA 1c 9.5 ± 2.2%), treated with oral agents or insulin before admission. Patients were treated with a basal-bolus regimen with glargine U300 ( n = 92) or glargine U100 ( n = 84) and glulisine before meals. We adjusted insulin daily to a target BG of 70-180 mg/dL. The primary end point was noninferiority in the mean difference in daily BG between groups. The major safety outcome was the occurrence of hypoglycemia.
RESULTS
There were no differences between glargine U300 and U100 in mean daily BG (186 ± 40 vs. 184 ± 46 mg/dL, P = 0.62), percentage of readings within target BG of 70-180 mg/dL (50 ± 27% vs. 55 ± 29%, P = 0.3), length of stay (median [IQR] 6.0 [4.0, 8.0] vs. 4.0 [3.0, 7.0] days, P = 0.06), hospital complications (6.5% vs. 11%, P = 0.42), or insulin total daily dose (0.43 ± 0.21 vs. 0.42 ± 0.20 units/kg/day, P = 0.74). There were no differences in the proportion of patients with BG <70 mg/dL (8.7% vs. 9.5%, P > 0.99), but glargine U300 resulted in significantly lower rates of clinically significant hypoglycemia (<54 mg/dL) compared with glargine U100 (0% vs. 6.0%, P = 0.023).

377,31112623,"Effect of hepatic impairment on the pharmacokinetics of vilaprisan: An open-label, single-dose, parallel-group study.","AIMS
The study objective was to evaluate the pharmacokinetics of the selective progesterone receptor modulator vilaprisan in participants with hepatic impairment. Additionally, the safety and tolerability of vilaprisan were investigated.
METHODS
In this phase 1, open-label, nonrandomised, parallel-group, pharmacokinetic study, men and women with mild or moderate hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh grade A or B) and control participants with normal hepatic function matched by age, weight and sex received a single oral 2 mg dose of vilaprisan. Key pharmacokinetic parameters, relationships between parameters and safety outcomes were measured.
RESULTS
Thirty-six participants completed the study: 9 with mild hepatic impairment, 9 with moderate hepatic impairment and 18 matched control participants with normal hepatic function. Vilaprisan reached maximum plasma concentrations after 1-2 hours. Unbound vilaprisan exposure was 1.44-fold higher for participants with mild hepatic impairment vs controls (90% confidence interval: 0.91-2.26), and 1.74-fold higher for participants with moderate impairment vs controls (90% confidence interval: 1.09-2.78). The maximum observed unbound peak concentrations were similar for participants with hepatic impairment and matched controls. Vilaprisan 2 mg was well tolerated and the incidence of treatment-emergent adverse events was similar across cohorts.
CONCLUSION
Only mild increases of <1.75-fold in exposure were observed in participants with mild or moderate hepatic impairment compared with control participants. No safety concern was identified. These data, alongside the excellent safety profile observed in phase 1 and 2 studies, do not indicate that a dose adjustment would be required in patients with mild or moderate hepatic impairment.",2019,No safety concern was identified.,"['Thirty-six participants completed the study: 9 with mild hepatic impairment, 9 with moderate hepatic impairment and 18 matched control participants with normal hepatic function', 'men and women with mild or moderate hepatic impairment', 'participants with hepatic impairment', 'Child-Pugh grade A or B) and control participants with normal hepatic function matched by age, weight and sex received a', 'patients with mild or moderate hepatic impairment']","['single oral 2\xa0mg dose of vilaprisan', 'selective progesterone receptor modulator vilaprisan', 'vilaprisan']","['maximum plasma concentrations', 'tolerated and the incidence of treatment-emergent adverse events', 'safety and tolerability of vilaprisan', 'Unbound vilaprisan exposure']","[{'cui': 'C4319606', 'cui_str': 'Thirty-six'}, {'cui': 'C0205197', 'cui_str': 'Complete (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0557651', 'cui_str': 'Study (environment)'}, {'cui': 'C2945599', 'cui_str': 'Mild (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0948807', 'cui_str': 'Hepatic impairment'}, {'cui': 'C0205081', 'cui_str': 'Moderate (severity modifier) (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0336766', 'cui_str': 'Matches'}, {'cui': 'C2587213', 'cui_str': 'Controlled (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0205307', 'cui_str': 'Normal (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0232741', 'cui_str': 'Liver function (observable entity)'}, {'cui': 'C0086418', 'cui_str': 'Humans'}, {'cui': 'C0043210', 'cui_str': 'Girls'}, {'cui': 'C0008059', 'cui_str': 'Child'}, {'cui': 'C0309195', 'cui_str': 'Grade A (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0001792', 'cui_str': 'Elderly'}, {'cui': 'C1305866', 'cui_str': 'Weighing patient (procedure)'}, {'cui': 'C1314687', 'cui_str': 'Sexual intercourse - finding'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}]","[{'cui': 'C0205171', 'cui_str': 'Singular (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C4521986', 'cui_str': 'Oral (intended site)'}, {'cui': 'C0869039', 'cui_str': 'Unit dose'}, {'cui': 'C4508937', 'cui_str': 'vilaprisan'}, {'cui': 'C3653463', 'cui_str': 'Progesterone receptor modulators'}]","[{'cui': 'C0032105', 'cui_str': 'Blood Plasma'}, {'cui': 'C0086045', 'cui_str': 'Concentration'}, {'cui': 'C0220856', 'cui_str': 'incidence'}, {'cui': 'C0087111', 'cui_str': 'Therapy'}, {'cui': 'C0877248', 'cui_str': 'Adverse event'}, {'cui': 'C0036043', 'cui_str': 'Safety'}, {'cui': 'C4508937', 'cui_str': 'vilaprisan'}, {'cui': 'C0274281', 'cui_str': 'Injury due to exposure to external cause (disorder)'}]",36.0,0.151187,No safety concern was identified.,"[{'ForeName': 'Niladri', 'Initials': 'N', 'LastName': 'Chattopadhyay', 'Affiliation': 'Bayer AG, Berlin, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Kai', 'Initials': 'K', 'LastName': 'Riecke', 'Affiliation': 'Bayer AG, Berlin, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Sandra', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Ligges', 'Affiliation': 'Bayer AG, Berlin, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Torsten', 'Initials': 'T', 'LastName': 'Zimmermann', 'Affiliation': 'Bayer AG, Berlin, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Atef', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Halabi', 'Affiliation': 'CRS Clinical Research Services GmbH, Kiel, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Marcus-Hillert', 'Initials': 'MH', 'LastName': 'Schultze-Mosgau', 'Affiliation': 'Bayer AG, Berlin, Germany.'}]",British journal of clinical pharmacology,['10.1111/bcp.13992']

379,32298717,Acceptability of oral dimethandrolone undecanoate in a 28-day placebo-controlled trial of a hormonal male contraceptive prototype.,"OBJECTIVE
To determine men's satisfaction with and acceptability of a once-daily, oral regimen of dimethandrolone undecanoate (DMAU) versus placebo when used for 28 days.
STUDY DESIGN
After a Phase I double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, dose-escalating trial of oral DMAU for 28-days, 57 healthy male volunteers completed a survey assessing their experience and satisfaction with the regimen. In the trial, participants were randomized to receive up to 4 DMAU capsules daily versus placebo and instructed to ingest them within 30 min of consuming a high fat meal. Pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic profiles were performed, followed by a 6-week recovery phase. Participants were counseled that they could not rely on the drug for contraception.
RESULTS
Fifty-seven participants were offered acceptability surveys (39 DMAU, 18 placebo). Most respondents, 80% (45/56), reported satisfaction with the method; 77% (44/57) would recommend it. 54% (31/57), reported that, if available, they would use the method as their primary contraceptive. More respondents reported satisfaction with active DMAU than placebo (87% vs. 67%; p = 0.05). Most respondents, 91% (52/57), reported no difficulty with having to take up to 4 pills within 30 min of ingesting a high-fat meal.
CONCLUSION
Most participants reported that the study method, daily oral DMAU or placebo, was satisfactory and acceptable. Having to take the drug after a high-fat meal did not detract from acceptability.
IMPLICATIONS
Most participants in a 4-week trial of daily DMAU capsules would recommend and use the method. High satisfaction among DMAU and placebo groups affirms acceptability of a daily male contraceptive pill, warranting further study of oral DMAU.",2020,More respondents reported satisfaction with active DMAU than placebo (87% vs. 67%; p=0.05).,"['hormonal male contraceptive prototype', '57 healthy male volunteers completed a survey assessing their experience and satisfaction with the regimen', 'Participants were counseled that they could not rely on the drug for contraception', 'Fifty-seven participants']","['oral dimethandrolone undecanoate', 'DMAU capsules daily versus placebo', 'placebo', 'oral DMAU', 'dimethandrolone undecanoate (DMAU) versus placebo', 'DMAU and placebo']",['satisfaction with active DMAU'],"[{'cui': 'C0458083', 'cui_str': 'Hormonal'}, {'cui': 'C0009881', 'cui_str': 'Contraceptives, Male'}, {'cui': 'C0086582', 'cui_str': 'Male'}, {'cui': 'C0042960', 'cui_str': 'Voluntary worker'}, {'cui': 'C0205197', 'cui_str': 'Complete'}, {'cui': 'C0038951', 'cui_str': 'Surveys'}, {'cui': 'C0002838', 'cui_str': 'Andorra'}, {'cui': 'C0332287', 'cui_str': 'With'}, {'cui': 'C0040808', 'cui_str': 'Protocols, Treatment'}, {'cui': 'C0341618', 'cui_str': 'Counsel'}, {'cui': 'C0521125', 'cui_str': 'For'}, {'cui': 'C0700589', 'cui_str': 'Contraception'}, {'cui': 'C4517815', 'cui_str': '57'}]","[{'cui': 'C0226896', 'cui_str': 'Oral cavity structure'}, {'cui': 'C2974168', 'cui_str': 'dimethandrolone-undecanoate'}, {'cui': 'C0006935', 'cui_str': 'Capsule'}, {'cui': 'C0332173', 'cui_str': 'Daily'}, {'cui': 'C0032042', 'cui_str': 'Sham Treatment'}]","[{'cui': 'C0242428', 'cui_str': 'Satisfaction'}, {'cui': 'C0205177', 'cui_str': 'Active'}, {'cui': 'C2974168', 'cui_str': 'dimethandrolone-undecanoate'}]",57.0,0.422798,More respondents reported satisfaction with active DMAU than placebo (87% vs. 67%; p=0.05).,"[{'ForeName': 'Brian T', 'Initials': 'BT', 'LastName': 'Nguyen', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Obstetrics & Gynecology, Keck School of Medicine of the University of Southern California, Los Angeles, CA, USA; The Lundquist Institute at Harbor UCLA Medical Center, Torrance, CA, USA.

380,32298853,Treatment Benefit with Omalizumab in Children by Indicators of Asthma Severity.,"BACKGROUND
Greater severity in childhood asthma negatively impacts functioning and quality of life. Omalizumab is effective in children aged 6 years or older with moderate to severe persistent asthma, but predicting responsiveness in severe disease requires further study.
OBJECTIVE
To assess response to omalizumab treatment among children using indicators of asthma severity.
METHODS
Post hoc analyses of randomized placebo-controlled studies of omalizumab (Inner-City Anti-IgE Therapy for Asthma [ICATA], IA05, and Preventative Omalizumab or Step-up Therapy for Fall Exacerbations [PROSE]) stratified by body mass index, eosinophil count, fractional exhaled nitric oxide levels, and baseline severity indicators (baseline percent predicted FEV 1 , previous hospitalizations, asthma exacerbations). Poisson regression analysis examined exacerbation rate reductions for body mass index, biomarkers, and severity indicators.
RESULTS
Children aged 6 to 11 years in IA05 (N = 576; 56% white, 17% black, 26% other/missing), ICATA (N = 237; 55% black, 43% Hispanic), and PROSE (N = 342; 59% black, 35% Hispanic) were included.

Bimekizumab selectively neutralises both interleukin (IL)-17A and IL-17F. We report efficacy and safety in a phase IIb dose-ranging study in patients with active ankylosing spondylitis (AS).
METHODS
Adults with AS (fulfilling modified New York criteria) were randomised 1:1:1:1:1 to bimekizumab 16 mg, 64 mg, 160 mg, 320 mg or placebo every 4 weeks for 12 weeks (double-blind period). At week 12, patients receiving bimekizumab 16 mg, 64 mg or placebo were re-randomised 1:1 to bimekizumab 160 mg or 320 mg every 4 weeks to week 48; other patients continued on their initial dose (dose-blind period). The primary end point was Assessment of SpondyloArthritis international Society (ASAS) 40 response at week 12 (non-responder imputation (NRI) for missing data).
RESULTS
303 patients were randomised: bimekizumab 16 mg (n=61), 64 mg (n=61), 160 mg (n=60), 320 mg (n=61) or placebo (n=60). At week 12, significantly more bimekizumab-treated patients achieved ASAS40 vs placebo (NRI: 29.5%-46.7% vs 13.3%; p<0.05 all comparisons; OR vs placebo 2.6-5.5 (95% CI 1.0 to 12.9)). A significant dose-response was observed (p<0.001). The primary end point was supported by all secondary efficacy outcomes. At week 48, 58.6% and 62.3% of patients receiving bimekizumab 160 and 320 mg throughout the study achieved ASAS40, respectively (NRI); similar ASAS40 response rates were observed in re-randomised patients. During the double-blind period, treatment-emergent adverse events occurred in 26/60 (43.3%) patients receiving placebo and 92/243 (37.9%) receiving bimekizumab.
CONCLUSIONS
Bimekizumab provided rapid and sustained improvements in key outcome measures in patients with active AS, with no unexpected safety findings versus previous studies.

The current study explored the impact of sugar taxes and FOP labels on the protein, calcium and fibre density of snack food purchases. A total of 3584 Canadians aged 13 years and older participated in an experimental marketplace using a 3 × 8 between-within group experiment. Participants received $5 and viewed images of 20 snack food products available for purchase. Participants were randomized to one of five FOP label conditions (no label, high in, multiple traffic light, health star rating, or nutrition grade) and completed three within-subject purchasing tasks with different sugar tax conditions (no tax, 20%, tiered). Upon conclusion, participants received the product and any change from one of the purchasing tasks. The results indicate that participants purchased snack foods with higher fibre density when either sugar tax was applied (+0.1 g/100 kcal) compared to no tax, and when they were assigned to see the multiple traffic light (+0.4 g/100 kcal) or health star rating (+0.3 g/100 kcal) FOP labels, compared to no FOP label. There were no significant differences in the protein or calcium density of snack foods purchased across the tax or FOP labelling conditions.

383,32299108,"Transcervical Foley Balloon Plus Vaginal Misoprostol versus Vaginal Misoprostol Alone for Cervical Ripening in Nulliparous Obese Women: A Multicenter, Randomized, Comparative-Effectiveness Trial.","OBJECTIVE
Nulliparous obese women are at increased risk of labor induction and cesarean delivery (CD). We sought to determine whether the combination of a transvaginal Foley balloon plus misoprostol prostaglandin E1 (PGE1) is superior to misoprostol alone in reducing the risk for CD.
STUDY DESIGN
We undertook a multicenter, open-label, comparative-effectiveness randomized clinical trial of nulliparous obese women with unfavorable cervix (Bishop's score ≤ 6) undergoing labor induction from January 2016 to June 2018 at three tertiary centers. Those at <32 weeks' gestation, premature rupture of membranes, stillbirth, and major fetal anomalies were excluded. Women were randomized 1:1 to either a combination of Foley balloon and misoprostol or misoprostol alone. Once Bishop's score was >6, further management was deferred to treating physicians. Primary outcome was the rate of CD. Secondary maternal outcomes included duration of induction-to-delivery interval, occurrence of tachysystole, clinical chorioamnionitis, need for operative vaginal delivery, as well as a composite of maternal morbidity (postpartum endometritis, surgical-site infection, venous thromboembolism, need for transfusion, intensive care unit admission, and maternal death). Secondary neonatal outcomes included need for neonatal intensive care unit admission, transient tachypnea of the newborn, respiratory distress syndrome, meconium aspiration syndrome, culture-proven sepsis, neonatal seizures, and a composite of neonatal morbidity (Apgar's score ≤7 at 5 minutes, umbilical artery cord pH ≤7.10, birth injury, perinatal death). With the rate of CD rate being 53% at Children's Memorial Herman Hospital among nulliparous obese women who underwent induction of labor at ≥32 weeks and met our inclusion criteria; 250 women (125 women per group) were required to answer the study question. All analyses were by intention to treat.
RESULTS
Of the 236 women randomized, 113 (48%) were allocated to group 1 (combined Foley and PGE1) and 123 (52%) to group 2 (PGE1 alone). The rate of CD was similar between the groups (45 vs. 43%, p = 0.84, relative risk [RR]: 1.03, 95% CI: 0.75-1.42). There was no difference in the occurrence of tachysystole that resulted in fetal heart rate abnormalities between the groups (8.8 vs. 16.2%, p = 0.09, RR: 0.54, 95% CI: 0.27-1.11). The total duration of the induction-to-delivery interval was also similar between the groups (24.8 ± 13.8 vs. 24.5 ± 14.0 hours, p = 0.87) regardless of the mode of delivery. No differences were seen in the indications for CD and secondary maternal or neonatal outcomes.
CONCLUSION
In this trial of nulliparous obese women undergoing labor induction, cervical ripening with combined Foley balloon and PGE1 resulted in similar CD rates than ripening with vaginal PGE1 alone.
KEY POINTS
- Nulliparous obese women are at increased risk for cesarean delivery.

385,32302790,"Comparative Healthcare Research Outcomes of Novel Surgery in prostate cancer (IP4-CHRONOS): A prospective, multi-centre therapeutic phase II parallel Randomised Control Trial.","INTRODUCTION
Focal therapy (FT) targets individual areas of cancer within the prostate, providing oncological control with minimal side-effects. Early evidence demonstrates encouraging short-medium-term outcomes. With no randomized controlled trials (RCT) comparing FT to radical therapies, Comparative Healthcare Research Outcomes of Novel Surgery in prostate cancer (CHRONOS) will compare the cancer control of these two strategies.
PATIENTS AND METHODS
CHRONOS is a parallel phase II RCT for patients with clinically significant non-metastatic prostate cancer, dependent upon clinician/patient decision, patients will enrol into either CHRONOS-A or CHRONOS-B. CHRONOS-A will randomize patients to either radical treatment or FT. CHRONOS-B is a multi-arm, multistage RCT comparing focal therapy alone to FT with neoadjuvant agents that might improve the current focal therapy outcomes. An internal pilot will determine the feasibility of, and compliance to, randomization. The proposed definitive study plans to recruit and randomize 1190 patients into CHRONOS-A and 1260 patients into CHRONOS-B.
RESULTS
Primary outcome in CHRONOS-A is progression-free survival (transition to salvage local or systemic therapy, development of metastases or prostate-cancer-related mortality) and in CHRONOS-B is failure-free survival (includes the above definition and recurrence of clinically significant prostate cancer after initial FT). Secondary outcomes include adverse events, health economics and functional outcomes measured using validated questionnaires. CHRONOS is powered to assess non-inferiority of FT compared to radical therapy in CHRONOS-A, and superiority of neoadjuvant agents with FT in CHRONOS-B.
CONCLUSION
CHRONOS will assess the oncological outcomes after FT compared to radical therapy and whether neoadjuvant treatments improve cancer control following one FT session.",2020,"CHRONOS is powered to assess non-inferiority of FT compared to radical therapy in CHRONOS-A, and superiority of neoadjuvant agents with FT in CHRONOS-B.

386,31999175,Early-phase study of a telephone-based intervention to reduce weight regain among bariatric surgery patients.,"OBJECTIVE
This study describes early-phase development of a behavioral intervention to reduce weight regain following bariatric surgery. We utilized the Obesity-Related Behavioral Intervention Trials model to guide intervention development and evaluation. We sought to establish recruitment, retention, and fidelity monitoring procedures; evaluate feasibility of utilizing weight from the electronic medical record (EMR) as an outcome; observe improvement in behavioral risk factors; and evaluate treatment acceptability.
METHOD
The intervention comprised 4 weekly telephone calls addressing behavior change strategies for diet, physical activity, and nutrition supplement adherence and 5 biweekly calls addressing weight loss maintenance constructs. Veterans ( N = 33) who received bariatric surgery 9-15 months prior consented to a 16-week, pre-post study. Self-reported outcomes were obtained by telephone at baseline and 16 weeks. Clinic weights were obtained from the EMR 6 months pre- and postconsent. Qualitative interviews were conducted at 16 weeks to evaluate treatment acceptability. We aimed to achieve a recruitment rate of ≥ 25% and retention rate of ≥ 80%, and have ≥ 50% of participants regain < 3% of their baseline weight.
RESULTS
Results supported the feasibility of recruiting (48%) and retaining participants (93% provided survey data; 100% had EMR weight). Pre-post changes in weight (73% with < 3% weight regain) and physical activity (Cohen's ds 0.38 to 0.52) supported the potential for the intervention to yield clinically significant results. Intervention adherence (mean 7.8 calls of 9 received) and positive feedback from interviews supported treatment acceptability.
CONCLUSIONS
The intervention should be evaluated in an adequately powered randomized controlled trial.

The aim of this study is to determine the feasibility of implementing and evaluating the World Health Organization Package of Essential Non-communicable Disease Interventions (WHO PEN) approach in primary healthcare in the Republic of Moldova.
METHODS
According to our published a priori methods, 20 primary care clinics were randomized to 10 intervention and 10 control clinics. The intervention consisted of implementation of adapted WHO PEN guidelines and structured training for health workers; the control clinics continued with usual care. Data were gathered from paper-based patient records in July 2017 and August 2018 resulting in a total of 1174 and 995 patients in intervention and control clinics at baseline and 1329 and 1256 at follow-up. Pre-defined indicators describing assessment of risk factors and total cardiovascular risk, prescribing medications and treatment outcomes were calculated. Differences between baseline and follow-up as well as between intervention and control clinics were calculated using logistic and linear regression models and by assessing interaction effects.
RESULTS
Improvements were seen in recording smoking status, activity to measure HbA1c among diabetes patients and achieving control in hypertension treatment. Improvement was also seen in identification of patients with hypertension or diabetes. Less improvement or even deterioration was seen in assessing total risk or prescribing statins for high-risk patients.
CONCLUSIONS
It is feasible to evaluate the quality and management of patients with non-communicable diseases in low-resource settings from routine data. Modest improvements in risk factor identification and management can be achieved in a relatively short period of time.",2020,"RESULTS

388,32301644,Verbal Motivation vs. Digital Real-Time Feedback during Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation: Comparing Bystander CPR Quality in a Randomized and Controlled Manikin Study of Simulated Cardiac Arrest.,"Objective: The use of smartphone applications increases bystander CPR quality as well as the use of telephone CPR protocols. The present prospective, randomized, controlled manikin trial analyses the effects of a smartphone application (PocketCPR©) on CPR quality in a bystander CPR scenario compared to a dispatcher-assisted telephone CPR with the additional use of a metronome and verbal motivation. Methods: 150 laypersons were included to perform 8-minute CPR on a manikin. Volunteers were randomly assigned to one of three groups: (1) dispatcher-assisted telephone CPR (telephone-group), (2) dispatcher-assisted telephone CPR combined with the smartphone-application (telephone + app-group) and (3) dispatcher-assisted telephone CPR with additional verbal motivation (""push harder, release completely,"" every 20 seconds, starting after 60 seconds) and a metronome with 100 min -1 (telephone + motivation-group). Results: Median compression depth did not differ significantly between the study groups ( p = 0.051). However, in the post hoc analysis median compression depth in the telephone + motivation-group was significantly elevated compared to the telephone + app-group (59 mm [IQR 47-67 mm] vs. 51 mm [IQR 46-57 mm]; p = 0.025). The median number of superficial compressions was significantly reduced in the telephone + motivation-group compared to the telephone + app-group (70 [IQR 3-362] vs. 349 [IQR 88-538]; p = 0.004), but not compared to the telephone-group (91 [IQR 4-449]; p = 0.707). In contrast to the other study groups, median compression depth of the telephone + motivation-group increased over time. Chest compressions with correct depth were found significantly more often in the telephone + app-group compared to the other study groups ( p = 0.011). Median compression rate in the telephone + app-group was significantly elevated (108 min -1 [IQR 96-119 min -1 ]) compared to the telephone-group (78 min -1 [IQR 56-106 min -1 ]; p < 0.001) and the telephone + motivation-group (99 min -1 [IQR 91-101 min -1 ]; p < 0.001). Conclusions: The use of a smartphone application as well as verbal motivation by a dispatcher during telephone CPR leads to higher CPR quality levels compared to standard telephone CPR. Thereby, the use of the smartphone application mainly shows an increase in compression rate, while increased compression rate with simultaneously increased compression depth was only apparent in the telephone + motivation-group.",2020,Chest compressions with correct depth were found significantly more often in the telephone + app-group compared to the other study groups (p = 0.011).,['150 laypersons were included to perform 8-minute CPR on a manikin'],"['Verbal Motivation vs. Digital Real-Time Feedback', 'smartphone applications', 'Bystander CPR Quality', 'dispatcher-assisted telephone CPR', 'smartphone application (PocketCPR©', 'Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation', 'dispatcher-assisted telephone CPR (telephone-group), (2) dispatcher-assisted telephone CPR combined with the smartphone-application (telephone\u2009+\u2009app-group) and (3) dispatcher-assisted telephone CPR with additional verbal motivation (""push harder, release completely"", every 20\u2009seconds, starting after 60\u2009seconds) and a metronome with 100\u2009min -1 (telephone\u2009+\u2009motivation-group']","['compression depth', 'bystander CPR quality', 'compression rate', 'CPR quality', 'median number of superficial compressions', 'CPR quality levels', 'median compression depth', 'Median compression rate', 'Median compression depth']","[{'cui': 'C4321486', 'cui_str': '150'}, {'cui': 'C0332257', 'cui_str': 'Including'}, {'cui': 'C0884358', 'cui_str': 'Performed'}, {'cui': 'C0439232', 'cui_str': 'min'}, {'cui': 'C0007203', 'cui_str': 'Cardiopulmonary resuscitation'}, {'cui': 'C0024722', 'cui_str': 'Mannequins'}]","[{'cui': 'C0439824', 'cui_str': 'Verbal'}, {'cui': 'C0026605', 'cui_str': 'Motivation'}, {'cui': 'C0442015', 'cui_str': 'Digital X-ray'}, {'cui': 'C0040223', 'cui_str': 'Time'}, {'cui': 'C0015744', 'cui_str': 'Feedback'}, {'cui': 'C3204335', 'cui_str': 'Smart Phones'}, {'cui': 'C0185125', 'cui_str': 'Application'}, {'cui': 'C0007203', 'cui_str': 'Cardiopulmonary resuscitation'}, {'cui': 'C0332306', 'cui_str': 'Quality'}, {'cui': 'C0018896', 'cui_str': 'Helping Behavior'}, {'cui': 'C0039457', 'cui_str': 'Telephone'}, {'cui': 'C0439745', 'cui_str': 'Grouped'}, {'cui': 'C0205195', 'cui_str': 'Combined'}, {'cui': 'C0611285', 'cui_str': 'APP protein, human'}, {'cui': 'C0580841', 'cui_str': 'Does push'}, {'cui': 'C0030685', 'cui_str': 'Patient discharge'}, {'cui': 'C0205197', 'cui_str': 'Complete'}, {'cui': 'C0205436', 'cui_str': 'Second'}, {'cui': 'C0439659', 'cui_str': 'Origins'}, {'cui': 'C1704407', 'cui_str': '100'}, {'cui': 'C1301862', 'cui_str': 'Min 1'}]","[{'cui': 'C0332459', 'cui_str': 'Compression'}, {'cui': 'C0205125', 'cui_str': 'Deep'}, {'cui': 'C0007203', 'cui_str': 'Cardiopulmonary resuscitation'}, {'cui': 'C0332306', 'cui_str': 'Quality'}, {'cui': 'C0549183', 'cui_str': 'Midline'}, {'cui': 'C0237753', 'cui_str': 'Number'}, {'cui': 'C0205124', 'cui_str': 'Superficial'}, {'cui': 'C0441889', 'cui_str': 'Levels'}]",150.0,0.0335284,Chest compressions with correct depth were found significantly more often in the telephone + app-group compared to the other study groups (p = 0.011).,"[{'ForeName': 'Christopher', 'Initials': 'C', 'LastName': 'Plata', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Michael', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Nowack', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Johannes', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Loeser', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Hendrik', 'Initials': 'H', 'LastName': 'Drinhaus', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Susanne', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Steinhauser', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Jochen', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Hinkelbein', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Wolfgang A', 'Initials': 'WA', 'LastName': 'Wetsch', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Bernd W', 'Initials': 'BW', 'LastName': 'Böttiger', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Oliver', 'Initials': 'O', 'LastName': 'Spelten', 'Affiliation': 'Faculty of Medicine and University Hospital of Cologne, Department of Anesthesiology and Intensive Care Medicine, University of Cologne, Cologne, Germany (CP, MN, HD, JH, WAW, BWB).'}]",Prehospital emergency care : official journal of the National Association of EMS Physicians and the National Association of State EMS Directors,['10.1080/10903127.2020.1757181']
389,32299845,"Riociguat in patients with early diffuse cutaneous systemic sclerosis (RISE-SSc): randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled multicentre trial.","OBJECTIVES
Riociguat is approved for pulmonary arterial hypertension and has antiproliferative, anti-inflammatory and antifibrotic effects in animal models of tissue fibrosis. We evaluated the efficacy and safety of riociguat in patients with early diffuse cutaneous systemic sclerosis (dcSSc) at high risk of skin fibrosis progression.
METHODS
In this randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, phase IIb trial, adults with dcSSc of <18 months' duration and a modified Rodnan skin score (mRSS) 10-22 units received riociguat 0.5 mg to 2.5 mg orally three times daily (n=60) or placebo (n=61). The primary endpoint was change in mRSS from baseline to week 52.
RESULTS
At week 52, change from baseline in mRSS units was -2.09±5.66 (n=57) with riociguat and -0.77±8.24 (n=52) with placebo (difference of least squares means -2.34 (95% CI -4.99 to 0.30; p=0.08)). In patients with interstitial lung disease, forced vital capacity declined by 2.7% with riociguat and 7.6% with placebo. At week 14, average Raynaud's condition score had improved ≥50% in 19 (41.3%)/46 patients with riociguat and 13 (26.0%)/50 patients with placebo. Safety assessments showed no new signals with riociguat and no treatment-related deaths.

391,31087060,Estimation of Mortality Risk in Type 2 Diabetic Patients (ENFORCE): An Inexpensive and Parsimonious Prediction Model.,"CONTEXT
We previously developed and validated an inexpensive and parsimonious prediction model of 2-year all-cause mortality in real-life patients with type 2 diabetes.
OBJECTIVE
This model, now named ENFORCE (EstimatioN oF mORtality risk in type 2 diabetiC patiEnts), was investigated in terms of (i) prediction performance at 6 years, a more clinically useful time-horizon; (ii) further validation in an independent sample; and (iii) performance comparison in a real-life vs a clinical trial setting.
DESIGN
Observational prospective randomized clinical trial.
SETTING
White patients with type 2 diabetes.
PATIENTS
Gargano Mortality Study (GMS; n = 1019), Foggia Mortality Study (FMS; n = 1045), and Pisa Mortality Study (PMS; n = 972) as real-life samples and the standard glycemic arm of the ACCORD (Action to Control Cardiovascular Risk in Diabetes) clinical trial (n = 3150).
MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE
The endpoint was all-cause mortality. Prediction accuracy and calibration were estimated to assess the model's performances.
RESULTS
ENFORCE yielded 6-year mortality C-statistics of 0.79, 0.78, and 0.75 in GMS, FMS, and PMS, respectively (P heterogeneity = 0.71). Pooling the three cohorts showed a 6-year mortality C-statistic of 0.80. In the ACCORD trial, ENFORCE achieved a C-statistic of 0.68, a value significantly lower than that obtained in the pooled real-life samples (P < 0.0001). This difference resembles that observed with other models comparing real-life vs clinical trial settings, thus suggesting it is a true, replicable phenomenon.

392,31087455,Efficacy of antepartum administration of hepatitis B immunoglobulin in preventing mother-to-child transmission of hepatitis B virus.,"The aim of this study was to investigate the efficacy of antepartum administration of three doses of hepatitis B immunoglobulin (HBIG) in interrupting mother-to-child transmission (MTCT) of hepatitis B virus (HBV). In this trial, a total of 728 HBeAg-positive pregnant women with chronic HBV infection who had an HBV DNA level higher than 6log 10 copies/mL were enrolled. They were divided into three groups based on individual preference. Subjects in group A and group B received 200 IU (unit) HBIG and 400 IU (unit) HBIG intramuscularly once a month at the third, second and first month before delivery, respectively. Subjects in the control group (C) received no special treatment. All the infants received passive-active immunoprophylaxis. The HBsAg-positive rate of all infants at 7-12 months of age was 5.1% (37/728). Specifically, the HBsAg-positive rate of infants was comparable in all three groups (5.3% vs 5.1% vs 5%, P = 0.988). No significant difference was found in anti-HBs levels between the infants aged 7-12 months in the three groups (P = 0.469). HBV DNA levels of the umbilical cord blood in the HBV-infected group were higher than those in the uninfected group (5.2 vs 3.4log 10 copies/mL, P < 0.001), and these with family history of HBV infection were also higher (45.9% vs 28.5%, P = 0.034). To conclude, administration of passive-active immunoprophylaxis to infants contributed to effective prevention of the MTCT of HBV; extra antepartum administration of HBIG during pregnancy could not decrease the rate of MTCT or increase the anti-HBs levels of infants born to HBsAg-positive mothers with HBV DNA higher than 6log 10 copies/mL.",2019,No significant difference was found in anti-HBs levels between the infants aged 7-12 months in the three groups (P = 0.469).,"['interrupting mother-to-child transmission (MTCT) of hepatitis B virus (HBV', '728 HBeAg-positive pregnant women with chronic HBV infection who had an HBV DNA level higher than 6log 10 \xa0copies/mL were enrolled', 'mother-to-child transmission of hepatitis B virus']","['HBIG and 400\xa0IU (unit) HBIG', 'hepatitis B immunoglobulin', 'hepatitis B immunoglobulin (HBIG', 'passive-active immunoprophylaxis', 'no special treatment', '200\xa0IU (unit']","['family history of HBV infection', 'HBV DNA levels of the umbilical cord blood', 'HBsAg-positive rate', 'rate of MTCT', 'anti-HBs levels']","[{'cui': 'C0443239', 'cui_str': 'Interrupted (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0282474', 'cui_str': 'Mother-to-Child Transmission'}, {'cui': 'C0019169', 'cui_str': 'Hepatitis B Virus'}, {'cui': 'C0019167', 'cui_str': 'e Antigens'}, {'cui': 'C1446409', 'cui_str': 'Positive (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0033011', 'cui_str': 'Pregnant Women'}, {'cui': 'C0205191', 'cui_str': 'Chronic (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C3714514', 'cui_str': 'Infection'}, {'cui': 'C0012854', 'cui_str': 'Deoxyribonucleic Acid'}, {'cui': 'C0456079', 'cui_str': 'Level (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0205250', 'cui_str': 'High (qualifier value)'}]","[{'cui': 'C0062525', 'cui_str': 'hepatitis B immunoglobin'}, {'cui': 'C3816746', 'cui_str': 'Four hundred'}, {'cui': 'C0205177', 'cui_str': 'Active (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0205555', 'cui_str': 'Special (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0087111', 'cui_str': 'Therapy'}, {'cui': 'C4319558', 'cui_str': '200'}, {'cui': 'C0439148', 'cui_str': 'Units (attribute)'}]","[{'cui': 'C0241889', 'cui_str': 'Family Medical History'}, {'cui': 'C3714514', 'cui_str': 'Infection'}, {'cui': 'C0012854', 'cui_str': 'Deoxyribonucleic Acid'}, {'cui': 'C0456079', 'cui_str': 'Level (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0162371', 'cui_str': 'Cord Blood'}, {'cui': 'C0149709', 'cui_str': 'HBsAg positive'}, {'cui': 'C0369334', 'cui_str': 'Antibody to hepatitis B surface antigen (substance)'}]",,0.030232,No significant difference was found in anti-HBs levels between the infants aged 7-12 months in the three groups (P = 0.469).,"[{'ForeName': 'Mengyu', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Zhao', 'Affiliation': 'Difficult & Complicated Liver Diseases and Artificial Liver Center, Beijing Youan Hospital, Capital Medical University, Beijing, China.'}, {'ForeName': 'Huaibin', 'Initials': 'H', 'LastName': 'Zou', 'Affiliation': 'Difficult & Complicated Liver Diseases and Artificial Liver Center, Beijing Youan Hospital, Capital Medical University, Beijing, China.'}, {'ForeName': 'Yu', 'Initials': 'Y', 'LastName': 'Chen', 'Affiliation': 'Difficult & Complicated Liver Diseases and Artificial Liver Center, Beijing Youan Hospital, Capital Medical University, Beijing, China.'}, {'ForeName': 'Sujun', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Zheng', 'Affiliation': 'Difficult & Complicated Liver Diseases and Artificial Liver Center, Beijing Youan Hospital, Capital Medical University, Beijing, China.'}, {'ForeName': 'Zhongping', 'Initials': 'Z', 'LastName': 'Duan', 'Affiliation': 'Difficult & Complicated Liver Diseases and Artificial Liver Center, Beijing Youan Hospital, Capital Medical University, Beijing, China.'}]",Journal of viral hepatitis,['10.1111/jvh.13123']
393,31192505,Identification of infants with increased type 1 diabetes genetic risk for enrollment into Primary Prevention Trials-GPPAD-02 study design and first results.,"Primary prevention of type 1 diabetes (T1D) requires intervention in genetically at-risk infants. The Global Platform for the Prevention of Autoimmune Diabetes (GPPAD) has established a screening program, GPPAD-02, that identifies infants with a genetic high risk of T1D, enrolls these into primary prevention trials, and follows the children for beta-cell autoantibodies and diabetes. Genetic testing is offered either at delivery, together with the regular newborn testing, or at a newborn health care visits before the age of 5 months in regions of Germany (Bavaria, Saxony, Lower Saxony), UK (Oxford), Poland (Warsaw), Belgium (Leuven), and Sweden (Region Skåne). Seven clinical centers will screen around 330 000 infants. Using a genetic score based on 46 T1D susceptibility single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) or three SNPS and a first-degree family history for T1D, infants with a high (>10%) genetic risk for developing multiple beta-cell autoantibodies by the age of 6 years are identified. Screening from October 2017 to December 2018 was performed in 50 669 infants. The prevalence of high genetic risk for T1D in these infants was 1.1%. Infants with high genetic risk for T1D are followed up and offered to participate in a randomized controlled trial aiming to prevent beta-cell autoimmunity and T1D by tolerance induction with oral insulin. The GPPAD-02 study provides a unique path to primary prevention of beta-cell autoimmunity in the general population. The eventual benefit to the community, if successful, will be a reduction in the number of children developing beta-cell autoimmunity and T1D.",2019,"The Global Platform for the Prevention of

394,31197861,Randomised clinical trial: intravenous vs oral iron for the treatment of anaemia after acute gastrointestinal bleeding.,"BACKGROUND
Acute gastrointestinal bleeding is prevalent condition and iron deficiency anaemia is a common comorbidity, yet anaemia treatment guidelines for affected patients are lacking.
AIM
To compare efficacy and safety of intravenous ferric carboxymaltose (FCM) and oral ferrous sulphate (FeSulf) in patients with anaemia secondary to non-variceal gastrointestinal bleeding METHODS: A prospective 42-day study randomised 61 patients with haemoglobin <10 g/dL upon discharge (Day 0) to receive FCM (n = 29; Day 0: 1000 mg, Day 7: 500 or 1000 mg; per label) or FeSulf (n = 32; 325 mg/12 hours for 6 weeks). Outcome measures were assessed on Days 0 (baseline), 7, 21 and 42. The primary outcome was complete response (haemoglobin ≥12 g/dL [women], ≥13 g/dL [men]) after 6 weeks.
RESULTS
A higher proportion of complete response was observed in the FCM vs the FeSulf group at Days 21 (85.7% vs 45.2%; P = 0.001) and 42 (100% vs 61.3%; P < 0.001). Additionally, the percentage of patients with partial response (haemoglobin increment ≥2 g/dL from baseline) was significantly higher in the FCM vs the FeSulf group (Day 21:100% vs 67.7%; P = 0.001, Day 42:100% vs 74.2%; P = 0.003). At Day 42, normalisation of transferrin saturation to 25% or greater was observed in 76.9% of FCM vs 24.1% of FeSulf-treated patients (P < 0.001). No patient in the FCM group reported any adverse event vs 10 patients in the FeSulf group.

395,31109915,Integrated stepped alcohol treatment for patients with HIV and alcohol use disorder: a randomised controlled trial.,"BACKGROUND
We examined the effectiveness of integrated stepped alcohol treatment (ISAT) on alcohol use and HIV outcomes among patients living with HIV and alcohol use disorder.
METHODS
In this multisite, randomised controlled trial, conducted in five Veterans Affairs-based HIV clinics in the USA (Atlanta, GA; Brooklyn-Manhattan, NY; Dallas and Houston, TX; and Washington, DC), we recruited people living with HIV and an alcohol use disorder who were not otherwise receiving formal alcohol treatment. Patients were eligible if they were aged 18 years or older, HIV positive, English speaking, and met criteria for alcohol use disorder by the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual for Mental Disorders-IV criteria for alcohol abuse or dependence. Key exclusion criteria included if the patient was acutely suicidal or had a psychiatric condition that affected their ability to participate in counselling interventions, or if they had any medical conditions that would preclude completing the study or cause harm during the course of the study. Using a web-based clinical trial management system, we randomly assigned participants (1:1) to receive ISAT or treatment as usual; patients, investigators, and clinicians were unmasked to allocation. ISAT involved three steps: step 1, addiction physician management, comprising eight sessions; step 2, addiction physician management plus motivational enhancement therapy, comprising four sessions; and step 3, specialty referral. Participants were stepped up at weeks 4 and 12 if they exceeded a priori drinking criteria. Treatment as usual involved referral to substance use treatment services. The primary outcome was number of drinks per week over the past 30 days at week 24 by use of the timeline followback method, assessed in the intention-to-treat population. Adverse events were tracked throughout the study period in all randomly assigned participants. This trial is registered at ClinicalTrials.gov, number NCT01410123.
FINDINGS
Between Jan 28, 2013, and July 14, 2017, 128 of 351 patients assessed for eligibility were eligible and randomly assigned to receive ISAT (n=63) or treatment as usual (n=65). Mean age was 54 years (range 23-70), 125 (98%) of 128 participants were men, and 101 (79%) were black. 25 (20%) were lost to follow-up. In the ISAT group, of 57 participants who did not die or withdraw, 30 (52%) advanced to step 2, and 17 (57%) of 30 advanced to step 3. 32 (51%) of 63 participants assigned to ISAT versus 17 (26%) of 65 assigned to treatment as usual received at least one alcohol treatment medication (p=0·004). Participants in both groups decreased their alcohol consumption, but at week 24 we did not detect a difference in number of drinks per week between the groups (least squares mean 10·4 drinks per week [SD 16·5] in the ISAT group vs 15·6 drinks per week [SD 17·6] in the treatment as usual group; adjusted mean difference -4·2, 95% CI -9·4 to 0·9; p=0·11). One adverse event occurred that was possibly related to treatment occurred in the ISAT group (headache).
INTERPRETATION
ISAT increases the receipt of alcohol treatment medications and counselling without changes in drinking at week 24. Strategies to implement and enhance ISAT are needed. Future efforts should focus on promoting ISAT with attention to enhancing patient engagement and retention in alcohol-related care.

Quizartinib is an oral, highly potent and selective next-generation FMS-like tyrosine kinase 3 (FLT3) inhibitor under investigation in patients with FLT3-internal tandem duplication-mutated acute myeloid leukaemia. This drug-drug interaction study assessed the pharmacokinetics (PK) of quizartinib when coadministered with strong or moderate cytochrome P450 3A (CYP3A) inhibitors.
METHODS
In this parallel-group study, subjects were randomised to receive: (i) quizartinib + ketoconazole; (ii) quizartinib + fluconazole; or (iii) quizartinib alone. On Days 1-28, subjects received ketoconazole 200 mg or fluconazole 200 mg twice daily, and on Day 8, all subjects received a single 30-mg quizartinib dose. Blood samples were collected for PK analyses, steady-state PK parameters were simulated by superpositioning, and safety was assessed.
RESULTS
Ninety-three healthy subjects were randomised; 86 completed the study. When administered with ketoconazole, geometric mean ratios (90% confidence interval) for quizartinib maximum observed plasma concentration (C max ) and area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC) from time 0 extrapolated to infinity were 117% (105%, 130%) and 194% (169%, 223%), respectively, vs quizartinib alone. Steady-state PK simulation demonstrated ~2-fold increase of both steady-state C max and AUC from time 0 to the end of the dosing interval when quizartinib was administered with ketoconazole due to accumulation of quizartinib at steady state. When administered with fluconazole, geometric mean ratios (90% confidence interval) for quizartinib C max and AUC from time 0 extrapolated to infinity were 111% (100%, 124%) and 120% (104%, 138%), respectively, vs quizartinib alone. Overall, 5.4% of subjects experienced quizartinib-related adverse events; no serious adverse events or deaths occurred.
CONCLUSIONS
These results suggest reducing the dose of quizartinib when coadministered with a strong CYP3A inhibitor, but not with a moderate or weak CYP3A inhibitor. This dose reduction was implemented in phase 3 evaluation of quizartinib.",2019,"Overall, 5.4% of subjects experienced quizartinib-related adverse events (AEs); no serious AEs or deaths occurred.

397,31162787,Cornea nerve fibre state determines analgesic response to tapentadol in fibromyalgia patients without effective endogenous pain modulation.,"BACKGROUND
Tapentadol is a centrally acting analgesic with μ-agonistic activity combined with noradrenaline reuptake inhibition. Its mechanism of action relies on improvement of descending pain inhibition. In the current study, tapentadol's ability to enhance conditioned pain modulation (CPM, an experimental measure of descending pain inhibition) was evaluated in fibromyalgia patients with absent or reduced CPM responses.
METHODS
A total of 34 fibromyalgia patients completed this double-blind trial. Patients were randomized to receive treatment with tapentadol sustained-release or placebo for a 3-month period with 1-month follow-up. At baseline, the cornea nerve fibre state (CNFS) was quantified to determine the presence of nerve fibre pathology and assess its value in the prediction of the analgesic response.
RESULTS
Tapentadol significantly increased CPM responses during treatment with an average increase from baseline of 20.5 ± 12.5% (tapentadol) versus 3.0 ± 11.2% (placebo; p = 0.042). No treatment effect was observed for the absolute pain scores, however, analgesia responder rate analyses demonstrated a treatment effect in favour of tapentadol. Pain relief (a reduction in pain score ≥ 30%) was predicted by the presence of a normal CNFS (p = 0.035). Patients with an abnormal CNFS had no analgesic effect from tapentadol despite an increase in CPM.
CONCLUSIONS
In chronic pain patients with fibromyalgia, the increase in endogenous pain inhibition by tapentadol was translated into analgesia in patients with a normal CNFS. In those with abnormal CNFS, tapentadol treatment was without analgesic effect.
SIGNIFICANCE
In this double-blind randomized placebo-controlled trial, we showed that tapentadol significantly enhanced the descending pain inhibition in fibromyalgia patients.

398,32229581,Antidopaminergic treatment is associated with reduced chorea and irritability but impaired cognition in Huntington's disease (Enroll-HD).,"OBJECTIVES
Alterations in dopamine neurotransmission underlie some of the clinical features of Huntington's disease (HD) and as such are a target for therapeutic intervention, especially for the treatment of chorea and some behavioural problems. However, justification for such an intervention is mainly based on case reports and small open label studies and the effects these drugs have on cognition in HD remain unclear.
METHODS
In this study, we used the Enroll-HD observational database to assess the effects of antidopaminergic medication on motor, psychiatric and cognitive decline, over a 3-year period. We first looked at the annual rate of decline of a group of HD patients taking antidopaminergic medication (n=466) compared with an untreated matched group (n=466). The groups were matched on specified clinical variables using propensity score matching. Next, we studied a separate group of HD patients who were prescribed such medications part way through the study (n=90) and compared their rate of change before and after the drugs were introduced and compared this to a matched control group.
RESULTS
We found that HD patients taking antidopaminergic medication had a slower progression in chorea and irritability compared with those not taking such medications. However, this same group of patients also displayed significantly greater rate of decline in a range of cognitive tasks.
CONCLUSION
In conclusion we found that antidopaminergic treatment is associated with improvements in the choreic movements and irritability of HD but worsens cognition. However, further research is required to prospectively investigate this and whether these are causally linked, ideally in a double-blind placebo-controlled trial.",2020,In conclusion we found that antidopaminergic treatment is associated with improvements in the choreic movements and irritability of HD but worsens cognition.,"['HD patients taking antidopaminergic medication (n=466) compared with an untreated matched group (n=466', 'HD patients who were prescribed such medications part way through the study (n=90']","['antidopaminergic medication', 'Antidopaminergic']","['chorea and irritability', 'choreic movements and irritability of HD but worsens cognition', 'motor, psychiatric and cognitive decline']","[{'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C1515187', 'cui_str': 'Take'}, {'cui': 'C0024908', 'cui_str': 'Matched Groups'}, {'cui': 'C0557651', 'cui_str': 'Study (environment)'}]",[],"[{'cui': 'C0008489', 'cui_str': 'Choreatic Syndromes'}, {'cui': 'C0022107', 'cui_str': 'Irritable Mood'}, {'cui': 'C0009240', 'cui_str': 'Cognitive Function'}, {'cui': 'C0205487', 'cui_str': 'Psychiatric (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0234985', 'cui_str': 'Cognitive Decline'}]",,0.0291193,In conclusion we found that antidopaminergic treatment is associated with improvements in the choreic movements and irritability of HD but worsens cognition.,"[{'ForeName': 'Kate L', 'Initials': 'KL', 'LastName': 'Harris', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Clinical Neurosciences, The University of Cambridge, Cambridge, United Kingdom kh600@cam.ac.uk.'}, {'ForeName': 'Wei-Li', 'Initials': 'WL', 'LastName': 'Kuan', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Clinical Neurosciences, The University of Cambridge, Cambridge, United Kingdom.'}, {'ForeName': 'Sarah L', 'Initials': 'SL', 'LastName': 'Mason', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Clinical Neurosciences, Cambridge Centre for Brain Repair, Cambridge, Cambridgeshire, United Kingdom.'}, {'ForeName': 'Roger A', 'Initials': 'RA', 'LastName': 'Barker', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Clinical Neurosciences, John van Geest Centre for Brain Repair, and MRC-WT Cambridge Stem Cell Institute, University of Cambridge, Cambridge, United Kingdom.'}]","Journal of neurology, neurosurgery, and psychiatry",['10.1136/jnnp-2019-322038']
399,32239737,"Meralgia paresthetica: Nerve stimulator-guided injection with methylprednisolone/lidocaine, a double-blind randomized placebo-controlled study.","BACKGROUND
Meralgia paresthetica is a mononeuropathy of the lateral femoral cutaneous nerve. A common therapy is injection with corticosteroids. The goal of this study was to analyze the effect of injection with methylprednisolone/lidocaine vs placebo.
METHODS
After randomization, 10 patients received a nerve stimulator-guided injection with methylprednisolone/lidocaine, and 10 patients received saline. The primary outcome measure was pain (visual analogue scale, VAS).
RESULTS
In the placebo group, there was a significant pain reduction (baseline VAS, 6.8; VAS week 12, 4.3; P = .014). The VAS score in the methylprednisolone group did not show a significant reduction (baseline VAS, 7.4; VAS week 12, 4.8; P = .053). There was no significant difference in pain reduction between the groups.

400,32161055,Initial combination therapy of ambrisentan and tadalafil in connective tissue disease-associated pulmonary arterial hypertension (CTD-PAH) in the modified intention-to-treat population of the AMBITION study: post hoc analysis.,"OBJECTIVES
To evaluate initial combination therapy with ambrisentan plus tadalafil (COMB) compared with monotherapy of either agent (MONO), and the utility of baseline characteristics and risk stratification in predicting outcomes, in patients with connective tissue disease-associated pulmonary arterial hypertension (CTD-PAH) and the systemic sclerosis (SSc)-pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) subpopulation.
METHODS
This post hoc analysis of the Ambrisentan and Tadalafil in Patients with Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (AMBITION) study included patients with CTD-PAH from the modified intention-to-treat population. Time to clinical failure (TtCF) was assessed by baseline characteristics, treatment assignment and risk group (low, intermediate and high) at baseline and week 16. TtCF was compared between groups using Kaplan-Meier curves and Cox proportional hazards regression modelling.
RESULTS
The analysis included 216 patients (COMB, n=117; MONO, n=99). The risk of clinical failure was lower with COMB versus MONO (risk reduction: CTD-PAH 51.7%, SSc-PAH 53.7%), particularly in patients with haemodynamic parameters characteristic of typical PAH without features of left heart disease and/or restrictive lung disease at baseline. The risk of clinical failure was lower with COMB versus MONO in the baseline low-risk group (HR not calculated due to no events in COMB), baseline intermediate-risk group (HR 0.519, 95% CI 0.297 to 0.905) and in the week 16 low-risk group (HR 0.069, 95% CI 0.009 to 0.548).
CONCLUSIONS
The benefit of COMB over MONO was demonstrated in patients with CTD-PAH, particularly in those with typical PAH haemodynamic characteristics at baseline. COMB is appropriate for patients categorised as low risk and intermediate risk at baseline and low risk at follow-up.

401,32078168,"The effect of sleep restriction, with or without high-intensity interval exercise, on myofibrillar protein synthesis in healthy young men.","KEY POINTS
Sleep restriction has previously been associated with the loss of muscle mass in both human and animal models. The rate of myofibrillar protein synthesis (MyoPS) is a key variable in regulating skeletal muscle mass and can be increased by performing high-intensity interval exercise (HIIE), although the effect of sleep restriction on MyoPS is unknown. In the present study, we demonstrate that participants undergoing a sleep restriction protocol (five nights, with 4 h in bed each night) had lower rates of skeletal muscle MyoPS; however, rates of MyoPS were maintained at control levels by performing HIIE during this period. Our data suggest that the lower rates of MyoPS in the sleep restriction group may contribute to the detrimental effects of sleep loss on muscle mass and that HIIE may be used as an intervention to counteract these effects.
ABSTRACT
The present study aimed to investigate the effect of sleep restriction, with or without high-intensity interval exercise (HIIE), on the potential mechanisms underpinning previously-reported sleep-loss-induced reductions to muscle mass. Twenty-four healthy, young men underwent a protocol consisting of two nights of controlled baseline sleep and a five-night intervention period. Participants were allocated into one of three parallel groups, matched for age, V ̇ O 2 peak , body mass index and habitual sleep duration; a normal sleep (NS) group [8 h time in bed (TIB) each night], a sleep restriction (SR) group (4 h TIB each night), and a sleep restriction and exercise group (SR+EX, 4 h TIB each night, with three sessions of HIIE). Deuterium oxide was ingested prior to commencing the study and muscle biopsies obtained pre- and post-intervention were used to assess myofibrillar protein synthesis (MyoPS) and molecular markers of protein synthesis and degradation signalling pathways. MyoPS was lower in the SR group [fractional synthetic rate (% day -1 ), mean ± SD, 1.24 ± 0.21] compared to both the NS (1.53 ± 0.09) and SR+EX groups (1.61 ± 0.14) (P < 0.05). However, there were no changes in the purported regulators of protein synthesis (i.e. p-AKT ser473 and p-mTOR ser2448 ) and degradation (i.e. Foxo1/3 mRNA and LC3 protein) in any group. These data suggest that MyoPS is acutely reduced by sleep restriction, although MyoPS can be maintained by performing HIIE. These findings may explain the sleep-loss-induced reductions in muscle mass previously reported and also highlight the potential therapeutic benefit of HIIE to maintain myofibrillar remodelling in this context.",2020,MyoPS was lower in the SR group (FSR %,"['participants undergoing a', 'healthy young men', 'Twenty-four healthy, young men']","['sleep restriction, with or without high-intensity interval exercise (HIIE', 'Deuterium Oxide (D 2 O', 'sleep restriction protocol', 'MyoPS', 'normal sleep group (NS, 8\xa0h time in bed (TIB) each night), a sleep restriction group (SR, 4\xa0h TIB each night), and a sleep restriction and exercise group (SR+EX, 4\xa0h TIB each night, with three sessions of HIIE', 'sleep restriction, with or without high-intensity interval exercise']","['rates of MyoPS', 'rate of myofibrillar protein synthesis (MyoPS', 'MyoPS', 'rates of skeletal muscle MyoPS']","[{'cui': 'C0332239', 'cui_str': 'Young (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0086418', 'cui_str': 'Humans'}, {'cui': 'C3715070', 'cui_str': '24 (qualifier value)'}]","[{'cui': 'C0424522', 'cui_str': 'Asleep (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C4081854', 'cui_str': 'High intensity'}, {'cui': 'C1272706', 'cui_str': 'Interval'}, {'cui': 'C0015259', 'cui_str': 'Physical Activity'}, {'cui': 'C0011745', 'cui_str': 'Heavy Water'}, {'cui': 'C0442711', 'cui_str': 'Protocols (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0205307', 'cui_str': 'Normal (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0439745', 'cui_str': 'Grouped (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C1632851', 'cui_str': 'Times'}, {'cui': 'C0004916', 'cui_str': 'Beds'}]","[{'cui': 'C0033684', 'cui_str': 'Proteins'}, {'cui': 'C0242692', 'cui_str': 'Muscle, Voluntary'}]",24.0,0.0152582,MyoPS was lower in the SR group (FSR %,"[{'ForeName': 'Nicholas J', 'Initials': 'NJ', 'LastName': 'Saner', 'Affiliation': 'Institute for Health and Sport, Victoria University, Melbourne, Australia.'}, {'ForeName': 'Matthew J-C', 'Initials': 'MJ', 'LastName': 'Lee', 'Affiliation': 'Institute for Health and Sport, Victoria University, Melbourne, Australia.'}, {'ForeName': 'Nathan W', 'Initials': 'NW', 'LastName': 'Pitchford', 'Affiliation': 'Institute for Health and Sport, Victoria University, Melbourne, Australia.'}, {'ForeName': 'Jujiao', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Kuang', 'Affiliation': 'Institute for Health and Sport, Victoria University, Melbourne, Australia.'}, {'ForeName': 'Gregory D', 'Initials': 'GD', 'LastName': 'Roach', 'Affiliation': 'Appleton Institute for Behavioural Science, Central Queensland University, Adelaide, Australia.'}, {'ForeName': 'Andrew', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Garnham', 'Affiliation': 'Institute for Health and Sport, Victoria University, Melbourne, Australia.'}, {'ForeName': 'Tanner', 'Initials': 'T', 'LastName': 'Stokes', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Kinesiology, McMaster University, Hamilton, Canada.'}, {'ForeName': 'Stuart M', 'Initials': 'SM', 'LastName': 'Phillips', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Kinesiology, McMaster University, Hamilton, Canada.'}, {'ForeName': 'David J', 'Initials': 'DJ', 'LastName': 'Bishop', 'Affiliation': 'Institute for Health and Sport, Victoria University, Melbourne, Australia.'}, {'ForeName': 'Jonathan D', 'Initials': 'JD', 'LastName': 'Bartlett', 'Affiliation': 'Institute for Health and Sport, Victoria University, Melbourne, Australia.'}]",The Journal of physiology,['10.1113/JP278828']

Design: A prospective, randomized-controlled interventional trial. Setting: An outpatient pain medicine clinic. Participants: The study included 66 patients aged 40-70 years with chronic knee pain refractory to conservative therapy and diagnosed as grade II or III KOA according to the Kellgren-Lawrence classification. The patients were assigned to dextrose prolotherapy group (PG; n = 22), saline group (SG; n = 22), or control group (CG; n = 22). Interventions: The intra- and extra-articular dextrose prolotherapy and saline injections were administered to the PG and SG, respectively, at 0, 3, and 6 weeks. The patients were blinded to their injection group status. A home-based exercise program was prescribed for all patients in all three groups. Outcome measures: The Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) scores, activity pain, stiffness severity measured using a visual analog scale (VAS), and the health-related quality of life (HRQoL) scores measured using the Short Form-36 (SF-36) subscales were recorded at the baseline, 6-week, and 18-week follow-ups. Results: The WOMAC-pain and VAS-activity pain scores decreased significantly in the PG compared to the SG ( p = 0.002 and p < 0.001, respectively) and CG ( p < 0.001 and p < 0.001, respectively) at 18 weeks. The WOMAC-stiffness scores decreased in the PG compared to the CG at 18 weeks ( p < 0.001). The WOMAC physical functioning scores were improved in the PG compared to the CG at 18 weeks ( p < 0.001). The physical component scores of the HRQoL were significantly improved in the PG compared to the CG at 18 weeks ( p = 0.016), but the mental component scores of the HRQoL showed no significant differences. Conclusions: These findings suggest that dextrose prolotherapy is effective at reducing pain and improving the functional status and quality of life in patients with KOA.",2020,The WOMAC-stiffness scores decreased in the PG compared to the CG at 18 weeks ( p < 0.001).,"['patients with knee osteoarthritis (KOA', '66 patients aged 40-70 years with chronic knee pain refractory to conservative therapy and diagnosed as Grade II or III KOA according to the Kellgren-Lawrence classification', 'Participants', 'Symptomatic Knee Osteoarthritis']","['dextrose prolotherapy', 'saline group (SG; n \u2009=\u200922), or control group (CG; n \u2009=\u200922', 'Dextrose Prolotherapy']","['WOMAC physical functioning scores', 'WOMAC-stiffness scores', 'Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) scores, activity pain, stiffness severity measured using a visual analog scale (VAS), and the health-related quality of life (HRQoL) scores measured using the Short Form-36 (SF-36) subscales', 'pain and improving the functional status and quality of life', 'physical component scores of the HRQoL', 'WOMAC-pain and VAS-activity pain scores']","[{'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C0409959', 'cui_str': 'Osteoarthritis, Knee'}, {'cui': 'C0001792', 'cui_str': 'Elderly'}, {'cui': 'C0439234', 'cui_str': 'year (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0205191', 'cui_str': 'Chronic (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0231749', 'cui_str': 'Knee pain (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C0205269', 'cui_str': 'Intractable (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0459914', 'cui_str': 'Conservative Management'}, {'cui': 'C0441800', 'cui_str': 'Grading (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0439070', 'cui_str': 'III'}, {'cui': 'C0008903', 'cui_str': 'taxonomy'}, {'cui': 'C0231220', 'cui_str': 'Symptomatic (qualifier value)'}]","[{'cui': 'C0017725', 'cui_str': 'dextrose'}, {'cui': 'C0500223', 'cui_str': 'Proliferation Therapy'}, {'cui': 'C0036082', 'cui_str': 'Saline Solution'}, {'cui': 'C0439745', 'cui_str': 'Grouped (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0009932', 'cui_str': 'Control Groups'}]","[{'cui': 'C0205485', 'cui_str': 'Physical (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0031843', 'cui_str': 'function'}, {'cui': 'C0449820', 'cui_str': 'Scores (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0427008', 'cui_str': 'Stiffness (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C3472647', 'cui_str': 'WOMAC index'}, {'cui': 'C0441655', 'cui_str': 'Activity (observable entity)'}, {'cui': 'C0030193', 'cui_str': 'Pain'}, {'cui': 'C0439793', 'cui_str': 'Severity (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C1879489', 'cui_str': 'Measures (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C3536884', 'cui_str': 'Visual Analog Scale'}, {'cui': 'C0018684', 'cui_str': 'Health'}, {'cui': 'C0445223', 'cui_str': 'Related (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C0034380'}, {'cui': 'C1806781', 'cui_str': 'Short (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0376315', 'cui_str': 'Form'}, {'cui': 'C0184511', 'cui_str': 'Improved (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0205245', 'cui_str': 'Functional (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0449438', 'cui_str': 'Status (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0449432', 'cui_str': 'Component (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C4279947', 'cui_str': 'HRQOL'}, {'cui': 'C0582148', 'cui_str': 'Pain score (observable entity)'}]",66.0,0.0595351,The WOMAC-stiffness scores decreased in the PG compared to the CG at 18 weeks ( p < 0.001).,"[{'ForeName': 'Alketa T', 'Initials': 'AT', 'LastName': 'Sert', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, Istanbul University Istanbul Faculty of Medicine, Istanbul, Turkey.'}, {'ForeName': 'Ekin I', 'Initials': 'EI', 'LastName': 'Sen', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, Istanbul University Istanbul Faculty of Medicine, Istanbul, Turkey.'}, {'ForeName': 'Sina', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Esmaeilzadeh', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, Istanbul University Istanbul Faculty of Medicine, Istanbul, Turkey.'}, {'ForeName': 'Emel', 'Initials': 'E', 'LastName': 'Ozcan', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, Istanbul University Istanbul Faculty of Medicine, Istanbul, Turkey.'}]","Journal of alternative and complementary medicine (New York, N.Y.)",['10.1089/acm.2019.0335']
403,31771991,Initial Results from Mobile Low-Dose Computerized Tomographic Lung Cancer Screening Unit: Improved Outcomes for Underserved Populations.,"INTRODUCTION
The National Lung Screening Trial (NLST) demonstrated that screening high-risk patients with low-dose computed tomography (CT) of the chest reduces lung cancer mortality compared with screening with chest x-ray. Uninsured and Medicaid patients usually lack access to this hospital-based screening test because of geographic and socioeconomic factors. We hypothesized that a mobile screening unit would improve access and confer the benefits demonstrated by the NLST to this underserved group, which is most at risk of lung cancer deaths.
PATIENTS AND METHODS
We created a mobile unit by building a Samsung BodyTom portable 32-slice low-dose CT scanner into a 35-foot coach; it delivers high-quality images for both soft tissue and bone and includes a waiting area and high-speed wireless internet connection for fast image transfer. The unit was extensively tested to show robustness and stability of mobile equipment. This project was designed to screen uninsured and underinsured patients, otherwise with eligibility criteria identical to that of the National Lung Screening Trial, with the only difference being exclusion of patients eligible for Medicare (which provides financial coverage for CT-based lung cancer screening).
RESULTS
We screened 550 patients (20% black, 3% Hispanic, 70% rural) with a male-to-female ratio of 1.1:1, median age 61 years (range, 55-64), and found 12 lung cancers at initial screen (2.2%), including 6 at stage I-II (58% of total lung cancers early stage) and 38 Lung-RADS 4 (highly suspicious) lesions that are being followed closely. Incidental findings included nonlung cancers and coronary artery disease.
DISCUSSION
In this initial pilot study, using the first mobile low-dose whole body CT screening unit in the U.S., the initial cancer detection rate is comparable to that reported in the NLST, despite excluding patients over the age of 64 years who have Medicare coverage, but with marked improvement of screening rates specifically in underserved sociodemographic, racial, and ethnic groups and with better outcomes than conventionally found in the underserved and at lower cost per case.
IMPLICATIONS FOR PRACTICE
This study shows clearly that a mobile low-dose CT scanning unit allows effective lung cancer screening for underserved populations, such as impoverished African Americans, Hispanics, Native Americans, or isolated rural groups, and has a pick-up rate of 1% for early stage disease. If confirmed in a planned randomized trial, this will be policy changing, as these groups usually present with advanced disease; this approach will produce better survival data at lower cost per case.",2020,"This study shows clearly that a mobile low-dose CT scanning unit allows effective lung cancer screening for underserved populations, such as impoverished African Americans, Hispanics,

404,31957143,Randomized Controlled Trial of Adult Therapeutic Coloring for the Management of Significant Anxiety in the Emergency Department.,"BACKGROUND
Anxiety and acute distress are significant concerns in the emergency department (ED). Adult coloring books are often utilized as an effective means of relaxation in waiting rooms and newsstands, but there are no reported randomized trials examining their effectiveness as a treatment for anxiety.
METHODS
We set out to examine the effectiveness of adult coloring books using a randomized placebo-controlled trial at a university-affiliated tertiary ED. Anxiety was measured using a validated self-reporting score, the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS-A), with a range of 0 to 21. Patients with HADS-A ≥ 7 were randomly assigned to either an adult coloring pack (n = 26) or placebo pack (n = 27). The primary outcome measure was the within-patient change in HADS-A scores following 2 hours of exposure.
RESULTS
A convenience sample of 117 patients were screened, and 53 patients were randomized. Characteristics of allocated groups were similar in terms of sex, diagnosis, and ethnicity. A higher proportion of intervention subjects spent ≥1 hour engaged with their activity (46.2% vs. 4.0%, p = 0.01). For the primary outcome measure, the mean within-patient decrease in HADS-A score at 2 hours for intervention subjects was 3.7 (95% confidence interval [CI] = 2.4 to 5.1, p < 0.001) versus a decrease of 0.3 (95% CI = -0.6 to 1.2, p = 0.51) in the placebo group.

405,32303377,"Sphenopalatine ganglion block for the treatment of postdural puncture headache: a randomised, blinded, clinical trial.","BACKGROUND
Current treatment of postdural puncture headache includes epidural blood patch (EBP), which is invasive and may result in rare but severe complications. Sphenopalatine ganglion block is suggested as a simple, minimally invasive treatment for postdural puncture headache. We aimed to investigate the analgesic effect of a transnasal sphenopalatine ganglion block with local anaesthetic vs saline.
METHODS
We conducted a blinded, randomised clinical trial including adults fulfilling the criteria for EBP. Participants received a sphenopalatine ganglion block bilaterally with 1 ml of either local anaesthetic (lidocaine 4% and ropivacaine 0.5%) or placebo (saline). Primary outcome was pain in upright position 30 min post-block, measured on a 0-100 mm VAS.
RESULTS
We randomised 40 patients with an upright median pain intensity of 74 and 84 mm in the local anaesthetic and placebo groups at baseline, respectively. At 30 min after sphenopalatine ganglion block, the median pain intensity in upright position was 26 mm in the local anaesthetic group vs 37 mm in the placebo group (estimated median difference: 5 mm; 95% confidence interval: -14 to 21; P=0.53). In the local anaesthetic group, 50% required an EBP compared with 45% in the placebo group (P=0.76).
CONCLUSIONS
Administration of a sphenopalatine ganglion block with local anaesthetic had no statistically significant effect on pain intensity after 30 min compared with placebo. However, pain was reduced and EBP was avoided in half the patients of both groups, which suggests a major effect not necessarily attributable to local anaesthetics.

406,31276747,Microcavitated (ICDAS 3) carious lesion arrest with resin or glass ionomer sealants in first permanent molars: A randomized controlled trial.,"OBJECTIVES
Although there is some consensus that carious lesions in early stages (non-cavitated) could be treated using sealants, neither the type of materials nor their use in lesions with localized enamel breakdown (microcavitated) has been reported To compare the efficacy of resin or glass ionomer (GI) sealants in arresting microcavitated carious lesions (ICDAS 3) in first permanent molars.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
A double-blinded randomized controlled clinical trial was conducted in 41 healthy 6 to 11-year-old children. At the baseline examination, each subject had at least one carious lesion classified as ICDAS 3 on the first permanent molar. One hundred fifty-one lesions were randomized into: Group 1: resin sealants (76 lesions) and Group 2: GI sealant (75 lesions). Carious lesion progression was assessed clinically and radiographically. Progression and retention failure were the outcomes used for group comparisons at p-value<0.05.
RESULTS
After a two-year follow-up, only one lesion progressed to ICDAS 5, without statistically significant differences between the groups (χ 2 (1) = 0.90, p = 0.53). Radiographically, 100 lesions (98%) were arrested and 2 (2%) showed radiographic progression, without differences between groups (χ 2 (1) = 0.93, p = 0.93). At 2 years, complete retention was observed in 77% of the resin-based and in 83% of the GI sealants, without statistical differences between type of sealant (χ 2 (1) = 0.71, p = 0.48). The multilevel mixed model demonstrated that location and type of sealant did not affect retention rates (χ 2 (1) = 24,98, p < 0.001).
CONCLUSION
Sealing ICDAS 3 carious lesions in permanent molars appears to be effective in arresting lesions after a two-year follow-up. Clinicaltrials.gov: RCTICDAS3/2015.
CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE
Minimally invasive approaches for carious lesion management have been promoted. Using sealants for the treatment of microcavitated lesions (ICDAS 3) appears predictable in the routine practice, without predilection for resin or glass ionomer materials. In addition to preserving tooth structure, this strategy reduces chair-time, dental fear and costs, and increases coverage to dental care.",2019,"At 2 years, complete retention was observed in 77% of the resin-based and in 83% of the GI sealants, without statistical differences between type of sealant (χ 2 (1) = 0.71, p = 0.48).","['One hundred fifty-one lesions', '41 healthy 6 to 11-year-old children']","['resin or glass ionomer (GI) sealants', 'Resin or Glass Ionomer Sealants', 'resin sealants (76 lesions) and Group 2: GI sealant']","['chair-time, dental fear and costs, and increases coverage to dental care', 'retention rates', 'Carious lesion progression', 'complete retention', 'radiographic progression', 'Progression and retention failure']","[{'cui': 'C1704407', 'cui_str': '100 (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0221198', 'cui_str': 'Lesion (morphologic abnormality)'}, {'cui': 'C0439234', 'cui_str': 'year (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0677546', 'cui_str': 'Old episode (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0008059', 'cui_str': 'Child'}]","[{'cui': 'C0061297', 'cui_str': 'glass ionomer'}, {'cui': 'C1261530', 'cui_str': 'Sealant (substance)'}, {'cui': 'C0221198', 'cui_str': 'Lesion (morphologic abnormality)'}, {'cui': 'C0441865', 'cui_str': 'Group 2 (qualifier value)'}]","[{'cui': 'C0179847', 'cui_str': 'Chair (physical object)'}, {'cui': 'C1632851', 'cui_str': 'Times'}, {'cui': 'C0085380', 'cui_str': 'Fear, Dental'}, {'cui': 'C0010186', 'cui_str': 'Cost'}, {'cui': 'C0205217', 'cui_str': 'Increased (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0011331', 'cui_str': 'Dental Care'}, {'cui': 'C0035280', 'cui_str': 'Retention'}, {'cui': 'C0011334', 'cui_str': 'Dental Decay'}, {'cui': 'C0449258', 'cui_str': 'Progression (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0205197', 'cui_str': 'Complete (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0444708', 'cui_str': 'Radiographic (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0231174', 'cui_str': 'Failure (finding)'}]",151.0,0.154525,"At 2 years, complete retention was observed in 77% of the resin-based and in 83% of the GI sealants, without statistical differences between type of sealant (χ 2 (1) = 0.71, p = 0.48).","[{'ForeName': 'Cecilia', 'Initials': 'C', 'LastName': 'Muñoz-Sandoval', 'Affiliation': 'Cariology Unit, Department of Oral Rehabilitation, University of Talca, Chile.'}, {'ForeName': 'Karla', 'Initials': 'K', 'LastName': 'Gambetta-Tessini', 'Affiliation': 'Cariology Unit, Department of Oral Rehabilitation, University of Talca, Chile.'}, {'ForeName': 'Rodrigo A', 'Initials': 'RA', 'LastName': 'Giacaman', 'Affiliation': 'Cariology Unit, Department of Oral Rehabilitation, University of Talca, Chile.

407,31279925,Efficacy of 30% silver diamine fluoride compared to atraumatic restorative treatment on dentine caries arrestment in primary molars of preschool children: A 12-months parallel randomized controlled clinical trial.,"OBJECTIVES
This clinical trial investigated the efficacy of silver diamine fluoride (SDF) in arresting dentine caries in primary molars of preschoolers. Time required for treatment, adverse effects, parental aesthetic perception, anxiety and oral health related to quality of life (OHRQoL) was evaluated.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
Children, 2-5 years old, with active dentine caries lesions on the occlusal surface of primary molars were randomly allocated to test group (SDF) or control group (atraumatic restorative treatment/ART). The dmf-t/DMF-T and ICDAS indexes determined the presence of caries and activity. The main outcome after 3, 6 and 12-month follow-up was assessed by a blind examiner. The time required to perform the treatments was recorded and a facial image scale was applied to assess anxiety before and after treatment. Adverse events and aesthetic perception were assessed through questions addressed to caregivers; and the OHRQoL through the B-ECOHIS questionnaire.
RESULTS
In 68 patients that were randomized, the mean number of treated teeth per child was 2.42(1.04) and 2.09(1.18) in the SDF and ART groups (p = 0.074), respectively. The mean difference of arrested lesions between the groups after 12 months was -0,07(0.05; - 0.17-0.30). The time required to treat with SDF was lower than the ART (p < 0.001). There was no difference in the percentage of adverse events + aesthetic perception (p = 0.709), and the change in anxiety (p = 0.155). There was a less impact in OHRQoL after ART treatment, but only when the parents' distress subscale was considered (p = 0.012).

408,31325466,Effects of restoring SDF-treated and untreated dentine caries lesions on parental satisfaction and oral health related quality of life of preschool children.,"OBJECTIVES
To find out the effects of placement of atraumatic restorative treatment (ART) restorations on parental satisfaction and oral health related quality of life (OHRQoL) of preschool children with SDF-treated or untreated dentine caries lesions.
METHODS
In a randomized controlled trial conducted in Hong Kong, preschool children who had cavitated dentine caries lesions were randomly assigned to receive application of silver diamine fluoride (SDF) solution or placebo (tonic water) on their caries lesions 10 weeks before receiving ART restorations. Parents were asked to rate their satisfaction with their child's teeth using a 5-point scale (5 = very satisfied, 1 = very dissatisfied) before and six months after the restorative treatment. Besides, the Chinese version of Early Childhood Oral Health Impact Scale (C-ECOHIS) was used to assess the children's OHRQoL.
RESULTS
A total of 194 children participated in this study, with 101 and 93 children receiving SDF and placebo application before ART restorations, respectively. There was no significant difference in parental satisfaction and C-ECOHIS score between the SDF and placebo groups at baseline. At the 6-month follow-up, the mean parental satisfaction score regarding their child's dental health status increased significantly (p < 0.001) from 2.2 ± 0.7 to 2.8 ± 1.0 in the SDF group and from 2.3 ± 0.8 to 2.7 ± 0.9 in the placebo group. However, no significant changes (p > 0.05) in C-ECOHIS scores were found in either of the two groups after ART restoration placement.
CONCLUSIONS
Placement of ART restorations can improve parental satisfaction with the health and appearance of their child's teeth but has no significant effect on the OHRQoL.

409,31218738,Appropriateness of prescription of oral anticoagulant therapy in acutely hospitalized older people with atrial fibrillation. Secondary analysis of the SIM-AF cluster randomized clinical trial.,"AIMS
To assess the appropriateness of oral anticoagulant (OAC) prescription and its associated factors in acutely hospitalized elderly patients.
METHODS
Data were obtained from the prospective phase of SIM-AF (SIMulation-based technologies to improve the appropriate use of oral anticoagulants in hospitalized elderly patients with Atrial Fibrillation) randomized controlled trial, aimed to test whether an educational intervention improved OAC prescription, compared to current clinical practice, in internal medicine wards. In this secondary analysis, appropriateness of OAC prescription was assessed at hospital admission and discharge.
RESULTS
For 246 patients, no significant differences were found between arms (odds ratio 1.38, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.84-2.28) in terms of appropriateness of OAC prescription. Globally, 92 patients (37.4%, 95% CI = 31.6-43.6%) were inappropriately prescribed or not prescribed at hospital discharge. Among 51 patients inappropriately prescribed, 82% showed errors on dosage, being mainly under-dosed (n = 29, 56.9%), and among 41 inappropriately not prescribed, 98% were taking an antiplatelet drug. Factors independently associated with a lower probability of appropriateness at discharge were those related to a higher risk of bleeding (older age, higher levels of aspartate aminotransferase, history of falls, alcohol consumption) and antiplatelet prescription at admission. The prescription of OACs at admission was the strongest predictor of appropriateness at discharge (odds ratio = 7.43, 95% CI = 4.04-13.73).
CONCLUSIONS
A high proportion of hospitalized older patients with AF remains inappropriately prescribed or nonprescribed with OACs. The management of these patients at hospital admission is the strongest predictor of prescription appropriateness at discharge.",2019,"The prescription of OACs at admission was the strongest predictor of appropriateness at discharge (OR= 7.43, 95% CI= 4.04 - 13.73).

410,31215676,Reduced bioavailability of oral amoxicillin tablets compared to suspensions in Roux-en-Y gastric bypass bariatric subjects.,"AIMS
To evaluate the relative bioavailability of oral amoxicillin (AMX) tablets in comparison to AMX suspension in Roux-en-Y gastric bypass bariatric subjects.
METHODS
A randomized, double-blind, cross-over study was performed on the bioavailability of oral AMX tablets and suspension in Roux-en-Y gastric bypass subjects operated at least 3 months previously . Doses of 875 mg of the AMX tablet or 800 mg of the AMX suspension were given to all the subjects, allowing a washout of 7 days between the periods. Blood samples were collected at 0, 0.25, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 4, 6 and 8 hours after drug administration and the AMX levels were quantified by liquid chromatography coupled with triple quadrupole tandem mass spectrometry. The pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated by noncompartmental analysis, normalized to an 875 mg dose and the bioavailability of the AMX from the tablets was compared to that from the suspension formulation.
RESULTS
Twenty subjects aged 42.65 ± 7.21 years and with a body mass index of 29.88 ± 4.36 kg/m 2 were enrolled in the study. The maximum AMX plasma concentration of the tablets and the suspension (normalized to 875 mg) were 7.42 ± 2.99 mg/L and 8.73 ± 3.26 mg/L (90% confidence interval of 70.71-99.11), and the total area under the curve from time zero to infinity were 23.10 ± 7.41 mg.h/L and 27.59 ± 8.32 mg.h/L (90% confidence interval of 71.25-97.32), respectively.

411,31238081,"Effects of soy and bovine milk beverages on enamel mineral content in a randomized, double-blind in situ clinical study.","Soy beverages are promoted as healthy alternatives to bovine milk even though they can contain added sugar.
OBJECTIVES
To compare enamel mineral content after consumption of bovine milk or a soy beverage in a double-blind, randomized, cross-over in situ clinical study.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
Human enamel slabs with subsurface lesions were prepared and inserted into intra-oral appliances worn by volunteers who consumed 200 ml of either bovine milk or a soy beverage over a 60 s period once a day for 15 days. Enamel lesion depth and mineral content were measured using transverse microradiography. Saliva samples were collected immediately after consuming the beverages and calcium, inorganic phosphate and fluoride levels analysed. Data were statistically analysed using a linear mixed model.
RESULTS
Depth of the enamel subsurface lesions increased by 7.1 ± 2.0 μm and mineral content decreased by 47 ± 22 vol% min.μm after consumption of the soy beverage indicating demineralization. However, after consumption of bovine milk the depth of the lesions decreased by 7.6 ± 3.5 μm and mineral content increased by 202 ± 43 vol% min.μm indicating remineralization. The changes were significantly different (p < 0.001) between the two beverages. Fluoride levels were similar in the saliva samples for both beverages, however the calcium and inorganic phosphate levels for the bovine milk group were significantly higher (p < 0.02) than those for the soy beverage group.
CONCLUSIONS
In this randomized, double-blind in situ clinical trial consumption of a soy beverage demineralized enamel whereas bovine milk produced remineralization.
CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE
Although soy beverages are promoted as healthy alternatives to bovine milk the added sugar and low calcium bioavailability of the soy drink makes frequent consumption a caries risk.

412,31240722,Effects of non-dispensing pharmacists integrated in general practice on medication-related hospitalisations.,"AIMS
To evaluate the effect of non-dispensing pharmacists (NDPs) integrated in general practice on medication-related hospitalisations, drug burden index and costs in patients at high risk of medication problems (being 65 years or older and using 5 or more chronic medications).
METHODS
This was a multicentre, nonrandomised, controlled intervention study with pre-post comparison (2013 vs June 2014 to May 2015) in 25 general practices in the Netherlands, comparing NDP-led care (intervention) with 2 current pharmaceutical care models (usual care and usual care plus). In the intervention group, 10 specially trained NDPs were employed in general practices to take integral responsibility for the pharmaceutical care. They provided a broad range of medication therapy management services both on patient level (e.g. clinical medication review) and practice level (e.g. quality improvement projects). In the control groups, pharmaceutical care was provided as usual by general practitioners and community pharmacists, or as usual plus, when pharmacists were additionally trained in performing medication reviews.
RESULTS
Overall, 822 medication-related hospitalisations were identified among 11 281 high-risk patients during the intervention period. After adjustment for clustering and potential confounders, the rate ratio of medication-related hospitalisations in the intervention group compared to usual care was 0.68 (95% confidence interval: 0.57-0.82) and 1.05 (95% confidence interval: 0.73-1.52) compared to usual care plus. No differences in drug burden index or costs were found.
CONCLUSIONS

To assess the efficacy of golimumab in combination with methotrexate (MTX) versus MTX monotherapy in psoriatic arthritis (PsA) dactylitis.
METHODS
Multicentre, investigator-initiated, randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-design phase 3b trial in 11 Portuguese rheumatology centres. Patients with PsA along with active dactylitis and naive to MTX and biologic disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (bDMARDs) were randomly assigned to golimumab or placebo, both in combination with MTX. The primary endpoint was Dactylitis Severity Score (DSS) change from baseline to week 24. Key secondary endpoints included DSS and Leeds Dactylitis Index (LDI) response, and changes from baseline in the LDI and MRI dactylitis score. Analysis was by intention-to-treat for the primary endpoint.
RESULTS
Twenty-one patients received golimumab plus MTX and 23 MTX monotherapy for 24 weeks. One patient from each arm discontinued. Patient inclusion was halted at 50% planned recruitment due to a favourable interim analysis. Median baseline DSS was 6 in both arms. By week 24, patients treated with golimumab plus MTX exhibited significantly greater improvements in DSS relative to MTX monotherapy (median change of 5 vs 2 points, respectively; p=0.026). In the golimumab plus MTX arm, significantly higher proportions of patients achieved at least 50% or 70% improvement in DSS and 20%, 50% or 70% improvement in LDI in comparison to MTX monotherapy.
CONCLUSIONS
The combination of golimumab and MTX as first-line bDMARD therapy is superior to MTX monotherapy for the treatment of PsA dactylitis.

We estimated associations between exposure to early-childhood ICDS nutrition and adult reproductive outcomes. During 1987-1990, a balanced protein-calorie supplement called ""upma""-made from locally available corn-soya ingredients-was rolled out by subdistricts near Hyderabad and offered to pregnant women and children under age 6 years.

415,32166877,Effect of adding azithromycin to the antimalarials used for seasonal malaria chemoprevention on the nutritional status of African children.,"OBJECTIVES
Mass administration of azithromycin has reduced mortality in children in sub-Saharan Africa but its mode of action is not well characterised. A recent trial found that azithromycin given alongside seasonal malaria chemoprevention was not associated with a reduction in mortality or hospital admissions in young children. We investigated the effect of azithromycin on the nutritional status of children enrolled in this study.
METHODS
A total of 19 578 children in Burkina Faso and Mali were randomised to receive either azithromycin or placebo alongside seasonal malaria chemoprevention with sulfadoxine-pyrimethamine plus amodiaquine monthly for three malaria transmission seasons (2014-2016). After each transmission season, anthropometric measurements were collected from approximately 4000 randomly selected children (2000 per country) at a cross-sectional survey and used to derive nutritional status indicators. Binary and continuous outcomes between treatment arms were compared by Poisson and linear regression.
RESULTS
Nutritional status among children was poor in both countries with evidence of acute and chronic malnutrition (24.9-33.3% stunted, 15.8-32.0% underweight, 7.2-26.4% wasted). There was a suggestion of improvement in nutritional status in Burkina Faso and deterioration in Mali over the study period. At the end of each malaria transmission season, nutritional status of children did not differ between treatment arms (seasonal malaria chemoprevention plus azithromycin or placebo) in either the intention-to-treat or per-protocol analyses (only children with at least three cycles of SMC in the current intervention year).
CONCLUSIONS
The addition of azithromycin to seasonal malaria chemoprevention did not result in an improvement of nutritional outcomes in children in Burkina Faso and Mali.",2020,The addition of azithromycin to

416,31077432,Randomized study of individualized pharmacokinetically-guided dosing of paclitaxel compared with body-surface area dosing in Chinese patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer.,"AIMS
This prospective, randomized study was initiated to assess the impact of pharmacokinetically (PK)-guided paclitaxel (PTX) dosing on toxicity and efficacy compared with body-surface area (BSA)-based dosing in Chinese non-small cell lung cancer patients.
METHODS
A total of 319 stage IIIB/IV non-small cell lung cancer patients receiving first-line chemotherapy were enrolled. Patients were randomized to receive 3-weekly carboplatin plus PTX at a starting dose of 175 mg/m 2 with subsequent PTX dosing based on either BSA or PK-guided dosing targeting time above a PTX plasma concentration of 0.05 μmol/L (PTX Tc > 0.05 ) between 26 and 31 hours. The primary safety endpoint was grade 4 haematological toxicity. The secondary endpoints were neuropathy, objective response rate, progression-free survival and overall survival.
RESULTS
In total, 275 (86%) patients completed ≥2 cycles of chemotherapy (140 in BSA arm and 135 in PK arm). In cycle 1, with the same PTX dose, average PTX Tc > 0.05 was 37 hours (range = 18-57 hours). Over cycles 2-4, patients in the PK arm had significantly lower average PTX doses and exposure compared with the BSA arm (128 vs 161 mg/m 2 , P < .0001 and 29 vs 35 hours, P < .0001). PK-guided dosing significantly reduced the cumulative incidence of grade 4 haematological toxicity (15% vs 24%, P = .004), grade 4 neutropenia (15% vs 23%, P = .009) and grade ≥ 2 neuropathy (8% vs 21%, P = .005). Objective response rate (32% vs 26%, P = .28) and overall survival (21.0 vs 24.0 months, P = .815) were similar in PK and BSA arms. Progression-free survival was slightly improved in PK arm (4.67 vs 4.17 months, P = .026).
CONCLUSION

417,31320177,The association of serum interleukin-6 levels with clinical outcomes in antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody-associated vasculitis.,"OBJECTIVE
To investigate serum IL-6 (sIL-6) levels during active disease, complete remission (CR), and relapse in antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-associated vasculitis (AAV), and to explore the association of changes in sIL-6 with clinical outcomes.
METHODS
sIL-6 levels were measured at baseline and longitudinally over 18 months, in 78 patients with AAV enrolled in a randomized controlled trial comparing treatment with either rituximab (RTX) or cyclophosphamide (CYC)/azathioprine (AZA). Outcome variables included baseline clinical features, ANCA specificity, disease activity (active disease versus CR), time to relapse events, B cell repopulation, and ANCA titer increases.
RESULTS
At baseline, sIL6 levels were detectable in 81% of patients; 73% (n = 57) of subjects were proteinase 3 (PR3)-ANCA positive, sIL-6 levels were higher in subjects with PR3-ANCAs and positively correlated with their levels (r s = 0.36,p < 0.01), but not with levels of myeloperoxidase (MPO)-ANCA (r s = -0.17,p = 0.47). Higher baseline sIL-6 levels were associated with PR3-ANCA positivity, fever, pulmonary nodules/cavities, conductive deafness, and absence of urinary red blood cell casts (p < 0.05). Baseline sIL6 levels did not predict CR at month 6 (p = 0.71), and the median sIL-6 level declined from baseline with induction therapy, regardless of CR achievement. An increase in sIL-6 during CR was a predictor for subsequent severe relapse in RTX-treated patients (hazard ratio (HR):7.24,p = 0.01), but not in CYC/AZA-treated patients (HR:0.62,p = 0.50). In contrast, a sIL-6 increase did not predict B cell repopulation or ANCA titer increase in either treatment arm (p > 0.05).
CONCLUSION
At baseline, sIL-6 concentrations correlate with PR3-ANCA titers and are associated with specific clinical manifestations of AAV. Baseline sIL6 concentrations do not predict CR at 6 months, but the increase in sIL-6 concentrations during CR is associated with subsequent severe relapse among RTX-treated patients. Further investigation into the mechanistic role of IL6 in AAV might lead to identifying this pathway as a potential therapeutic target in this disease.",2019,"(PR3)-ANCA positive, sIL-6 levels were

418,31996367,Pragmatic randomised controlled trial of very early etanercept and MTX versus MTX with delayed etanercept in RA: the VEDERA trial.,"OBJECTIVES
We sought to confirm in very early rheumatoid arthritis (ERA) a much greater superiority (30%) of first-line etanercept+methotrexate (ETN+MTX) over treat-to-target MTX (MTX-TT) than previously reported in ERA (14%); and explore whether ETN following initial MTX secures a comparable response to first-line ETN+MTX.
METHODS
Pragmatic, open-label, randomised controlled trial of treatment-naïve ERA (≤12 months symptom), Disease Activity Score 28 joint (DAS28)-erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) ≥3.2, rheumatoid factor (RF)+/-anticitrullinated peptide antibody (ACPA) positive or ultrasound power Doppler (PD) if RF and ACPA negative. Subjects were randomised 1:1 to ETN+MTX; or MTX-TT, escalated to ETN if week 24 DAS28-ESR ≥2.6 and intramuscular corticosteroid at protocolised time points. Primary endpoint of week 48 DAS28ESR remission with clinical and imaging secondary endpoints.
RESULTS
We randomised 120 patients, 60 to each arm (71% female, 73% RF/84% ACPA positive, median (IQR) symptom duration 20.3 (13.1, 30.8) weeks; mean (SD) DAS28 5.1 (1.1)). Remission rates with ETN+MTX and MTX-TT, respectively, were 38% vs 33% at week 24; 52% vs 38% at week 48 (ORs 1.6, 95% CI 0.8 to 3.5, p=0.211). Greater, sustained DAS28-ESR remission observed with ETN+MTX versus MTX-TT (42% and 27%, respectively; p=0.035). PD was fully suppressed by week 48 in over 90% in each arm. Planned exploratory analysis revealed OR 2.84, 95% CI 0.8 to 9.6) of achieving remission after 24 weeks of ETN administered first line compared with administered post-MTX.
CONCLUSIONS
Compared with remission rates typically reported with first-line tumour necrosis factor inhabitor+MTX versus MTX-TT, we did not demonstrate a larger effect in very ERA. Neither strategy conferred remission in the majority of patients although ultrasound confirmed local inflammation suppression. Poorer ETN response following failure of MTX-TT is also suggested.

419,31710994,Individual differences in human opioid abuse potential as observed in a human laboratory study.,"BACKGROUND
Opioids have high abuse potential and pose a major public health concern. Yet, a large percentage of individuals exposed to opioids do not develop problematic use. Individual differences in opioid abuse potential are not well understood.
METHODS
This within-subject (N = 16), double-blind, double-dummy, human laboratory study evaluated individual differences in response to dose (placebo, low, medium, high) following administration of heroin and hydromorphone through intravenous and subcutaneous routes, in opioid-experienced but non physically-dependent participants. Outcomes were self-reported visual analog scale (VAS) ratings (High, Liking, Drug Effect, Good Effect, Rush), pupil diameter change from baseline, and crossover point on the Drug vs. Money questionnaire. The degree to which results were consistent across measures within an individual was assessed using a mixed-effects model from which an intraclass correlation coefficient measure of between and within-subject variance was derived.
RESULTS
The mixed effects model fit was significant (p < 0.0001) and revealed that 85.5% of the explainable variance was due to between-subject effects, suggesting the responses within an individual were highly consistent. Visual inspection reveals a myriad response pattern across participants, with some demonstrating classic dose-effect responses and others not differentiating any active doses from placebo.
CONCLUSIONS
Data suggest the abuse potential of opioids is significantly different between individuals but that the experience within an individual is highly consistent. Research to prospectively characterize and evaluate mechanisms underlying these differences is warranted and may provide a foundation to help identify persons at heightened risk of transitioning from opioid exposure to misuse and/or opioid use disorder.",2019,"The mixed effects model fit was significant (p < 0.0001) and revealed that 85.5% of the explainable variance was due to between-subject effects, suggesting the responses within an individual were highly consistent.",[],['heroin and hydromorphone'],"['self-reported visual analog scale (VAS) ratings (High, Liking, Drug Effect, Good Effect, Rush), pupil diameter change from baseline, and crossover point on the Drug vs. Money questionnaire']",[],"[{'cui': 'C0011892', 'cui_str': 'diamorphine'}, {'cui': 'C0012306', 'cui_str': 'Hydromorphone'}]","[{'cui': 'C2700446', 'cui_str': 'Self-reported (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C3536884', 'cui_str': 'Visual Analog Scale'}, {'cui': 'C0205250', 'cui_str': 'High (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0728867', 'cui_str': 'Drug action (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C0205170', 'cui_str': 'Good (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C1280500', 'cui_str': 'Effect (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0443052', 'cui_str': 'Rush (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0034121', 'cui_str': 'Pupil'}, {'cui': 'C1301886', 'cui_str': 'Diameter (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0392747', 'cui_str': 'Altered (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0013227', 'cui_str': 'Pharmaceuticals'}, {'cui': 'C0034394', 'cui_str': 'Questionnaires'}]",,0.212725,"The mixed effects model fit was significant (p < 0.0001) and revealed that 85.5% of the explainable variance was due to between-subject effects, suggesting the responses within an individual were highly consistent.","[{'ForeName': 'Kelly E', 'Initials': 'KE', 'LastName': 'Dunn', 'Affiliation': 'Behavioral Pharmacology Research Unit, Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, United States.

420,31981043,Endoscopic Argon Plasma Coagulation vs. Multidisciplinary Evaluation in the Management of Weight Regain After Gastric Bypass Surgery: a Randomized Controlled Trial with SHAM Group.,"BACKGROUND
Roux-en-Y gastric bypass is one of the most widely performed bariatric surgeries. However, the relapse of obesity occurs in approximately 20% of patients and enlargement of the anastomosis is one of the factors associated with this relapse. Endoscopic treatment of the anastomosis has been proposed to assist in renewed weight loss. One endoscopic technique is the narrowing of the anastomosis argon plasma coagulation (APC).
OBJECTIVE
Evaluate the effectiveness and safety of the endoscopic treatment of an enlarged anastomosis with APC.
METHODS
A randomized controlled study was conducted comparing APC to exclusive multidisciplinary management after weight regain.
RESULTS
Forty-two patients were divided into two groups: APC (n = 22) and control (n = 20). After 14 months of follow-up with a crossover at 6 months, significant improvement in satiety and greater weight loss were found in the APC group and after crossover. APC was associated with significant weight loss [9.73 (7.46, 12) vs. + 1.38 (- 1.39, 2.15)], a reduction in the anastomosis diameter [p < 0.001], early satiation [0.77 (0.44, 1.11) vs. - 0.59 (- 0.95, - 0.23), p < 0.001], and increased quality of life measured using the EQ5D index [p = 0.04] and EQ5D VAS scale [p = 0.04]. Considering total mean weight loss throughout the entire follow-up, weight loss was similar in both groups (13.02 kg in the APC and 11.52 kg in the control).
CONCLUSION

421,31942688,Weight Loss and Vomiting 1 Year After Banded Versus Non-banded One Anastomosis Gastric Bypass: a Prospective Randomized Trial.,"BACKGROUND
The weight loss outcomes after banded one-anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB) remain to be determined.
OBJECTIVE
To compare weight loss and vomiting 1 year after banded versus non-banded OAGB.
METHODS
This is a prospective, open-label, randomized study, which evaluated 33 individuals with morbid obesity, which underwent banded (16 individuals) and non-banded OAGB (17 individuals) and were followed up for 12 months. Weight loss (percentages of total weight loss-%TWL-and excess weight loss-%EWL) and occurrence of vomiting were assessed and compared before surgery and after 6 and 12 months.
RESULTS
At baseline, there were no differences between groups in regard to age, gender, and body mass index (BMI). At 6 and 12 months post-op, and the overall mean %TWL regardless of band use was 22.4 ± 7% and 29 ± 6.9%, respectively, and the overall average %EWL regardless of band use was 66.8 ± 22.9% and 86.3 ± 24%, respectively. %TWL did not differ between the banded and non-banded groups at 6 (21.8 ± 6.8% vs. 23.1 ± 7.4%; p = 0.7) and 12 months post-op (27.5 ± 6.6% vs. 30.4 ± 7.1%; p = 0.3), as well as %EWL at 6 (67 ± 22.9% vs. 67.6 ± 23.6%; p = 0.6) and 12 months post-op (83.5 ± 24.4% vs. 89 ± 24.1%; p = 0.4). The occurrence of vomiting did not significantly differ between banded and non-banded OAGB at 6 (12.5% vs. 11.8%; p = 0.9) and 12 months post-op (12.5% vs. 5.9%; p = 0.5).

422,31712614,Study protocol of a double-blind randomised placebo-controlled trial on the effect of a multispecies probiotic on the incidence of antibiotic-associated diarrhoea in persons with spinal cord injury.,"STUDY DESIGN
Multi-centre, double-blind randomised placebo-controlled study.
OBJECTIVE
To investigate whether the use of a multispecies probiotic can prevent antibiotic-associated diarrhoea in people with spinal cord injury (SCI).
SETTING
Three Dutch SCI rehabilitation centres.
METHODS
Fifty-six people aged 18-75 years with SCI during inpatient rehabilitation, who require antibiotics, will be given probiotics or placebo randomly assigned (T0). After cessation of the antibiotics (T1), the participants will use probiotics/placebo for 3 more weeks (T2). Defaecation, assessed by the Bristol Stool Scale, and bowel management will be monitored daily until 2 weeks after cessation of probiotics/placebo intake (T3). Also, the degree of nausea and information on quality of life will be collected at T0, T1, T2 and T3.
MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES
The difference between the incidence of antibiotic-associated diarrhoea between people with SCI using probiotics compared to those using a placebo at the moment the antibiotics stops, the probiotics stops and two weeks thereafter.
SECONDARY OUTCOME MEASURES
The time to reach effective bowel management, degree of nausea and quality of life.

423,32098758,"Intra-articular sprifermin reduces cartilage loss in addition to increasing cartilage gain independent of location in the femorotibial joint: post-hoc analysis of a randomised, placebo-controlled phase II clinical trial.","OBJECTIVES
In the phase II FGF-18 Osteoarthritis Randomized Trial with Administration of Repeated Doses (FORWARD) study, sprifermin demonstrated cartilage modification in the total femorotibial joint and in both femorotibial compartments by MRI in patients with knee osteoarthritis. Here, we evaluate whether sprifermin reduces cartilage loss and increases cartilage thickness, independent of location.
METHODS
Patients were randomised 1:1:1:1:1 to three once-weekly intra-articular injections of 30 µg sprifermin every 6 months (q6mo); 30 µg sprifermin every 12 months (q12mo); 100 µg sprifermin q6mo; 100 µg sprifermin q12mo; or placebo. Post-hoc analysis using thinning/thickening scores and ordered values evaluated femorotibial cartilage thickness change from baseline to 24 months independent of location. Changes were indirectly compared with those of Osteoarthritis Initiative healthy subjects.
RESULTS
Thinning scores were significantly lower for sprifermin 100 µg q6mo versus placebo (mean (95% CI) difference: 334 µm (114 to 554)), with a cartilage thinning score similar to healthy subjects. Thickening scores were significantly greater for sprifermin 100 µg q6mo, 100 µg q12mo and 30 µg q6mo versus placebo (mean (95% CI) difference: 425 µm (267 to 584); 450 µm (305 to 594) and 139 µm (19 to 259), respectively) and more than doubled versus healthy subjects.
CONCLUSIONS
Sprifermin increases cartilage thickness, and substantially reduces cartilage loss, expanding FORWARD primary results.

424,32271144,Comparative pharmacokinetics of a montelukast/levocetirizine fixed-dose combination chewable tablet versus individual administration of montelukast and levocetirizine after a single oral administration in healthy Korean male subjects
.,"OBJECTIVE
Asthma patients often have co-existing symptoms of allergic rhinitis and are often prescribed with both asthma and rhinitis treatments such as montelukast and levocetirizine. The objective of this study was to compare the pharmacokinetic profiles of a montelukast/levocetirizine fixed-dose combination chewable tablet with individual administration of montelukast and levocetirizine in healthy subjects.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
A randomized, open-label, single-dose crossover study was conducted in healthy male subjects. One of the following treatments was administered in each period: co-administration of 1 chewable tablet of montelukast 5 mg and 1 tablet of levocetirizine 5 mg or administration of 1 chewable tablet of montelukast/levocetirizine 5/5 mg fixed-dose combination. Serial blood samples were collected up to 48 hours post dose. Plasma drug concentrations were measured by liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry. Pharmacokinetic parameters, including maximum plasma concentration (C max ) and area under the plasma concentration versus time curve from dosing to the last measurable concentration (AUC last ), were determined by non-compartmental analysis. The geometric least-square mean (GLSM) ratios and associated 90% confidence intervals (CIs) of C max and AUC last were calculated to evaluate pharmacokinetic equivalence.
RESULTS
A total of 22 subjects were included in pharmacokinetic analysis. The GLSM ratios and 90% CIs of C max and AUC last were 1.0054 (0.9535 - 1.0601) and 1.0628 (1.0013 - 1.1281) for montelukast and 1.0105 (0.9488 - 1.0764) and 1.0396 (0.9935 - 1.0879) for levocetirizine, respectively.

425,32289474,"5-Year Update of a Multi-Institution, Prospective Phase 2 Hypofractionated Postmastectomy Radiation Therapy Trial.","PURPOSE
Hypofractionation in the setting of postmastectomy radiation (PMRT) is not currently the standard of care in most countries. Here we present a 5-year update of our multi-institutional, phase 2 prospective trial evaluating a novel 15-day hypofractionated PMRT regimen.
METHODS AND MATERIALS
Patients were enrolled to receive 3.33 Gy daily to the chest wall (or reconstructed breast) and regional lymphatics in 11 fractions with an optional 4-fraction mastectomy scar boost. The primary endpoint was freedom from grade 3 or higher late non-reconstruction-related radiation toxicities. Toxicities were scored using Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events v4.0. Secondary endpoints included local and locoregional recurrence rates, cosmesis, and reconstruction complications.
RESULTS
After enrolling 69 patients with stage II-IIIa breast cancer, 67 women were eligible for analysis. At a median follow up of 54 months, there were no acute or late grade 3 and 4 nonreconstruction reported toxicities. The grade 2 or greater late toxicity rate was only 12% and comprised grade 2 pain, fatigue, and lymphedema that persisted beyond 6 months after completion of radiation therapy. Only 3 women (4.6%) experienced a chest wall or nodal recurrence as a first site of relapse. Freedom from local failure, including local failure after distant relapse, was 92% at 5 years, and the 5-year overall survival was 90%.
CONCLUSIONS
This is the first prospective trial conducted in the United States to demonstrate the safe and effective use of hypofractionated PMRT. We have demonstrated a low complication rate while achieving excellent local control. Toxicity was better than anticipated based on previously published series of PMRT toxicities. Although our fractionation was novel, the radiobiological equivalent dose is similar to other hypofractionation schedules. This trial was the basis for the creation of Alliance A221505 (RT CHARM), which is currently accruing patients in a phase 3 randomized design.",2020,"Freedom from local failure, including local failure after distant relapse was 92% at 5 years and the 5-year overall survival was 90%.

426,32289190,Safety in moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis patients with latent tuberculosis treated with guselkumab and anti-tuberculosis treatments concomitantly: results from pooled phase 3 VOYAGE 1 & VOYAGE 2 trials.,"BACKGROUND
Patients treated with tumour necrosis factor (TNF) inhibitors are at risk of new-onset tuberculosis (TB) or reactivation of latent tuberculosis infection (LTBI). Association between TB/LTBI and interleukin (IL)-23 inhibitors for psoriasis is unclear. Patients with LTBI typically initiate LTBI therapy before receiving biologics.
OBJECTIVES
Safety in moderate-to-severe psoriasis patients with LTBI treated with guselkumab (IL-23 inhibitor) and LTBI treatment was evaluated.
METHODS
In the VOYAGE 1 & VOYAGE 2 studies, patients screened for LTBI were randomized to guselkumab, placebo, or adalimumab (TNF inhibitor) at baseline. Placebo → guselkumab crossover occurred at week 16 and adalimumab → guselkumab at week 52 (VOYAGE 1), or at week 28 or later (VOYAGE 2). Incidence of active TB, adverse events (AEs), serious AEs (SAEs), and markedly abnormal liver function tests [alanine aminotransferase test (ALT); aspartate aminotransferase test (AST)] were evaluated using pooled data through week 100 in guselkumab-treated patients receiving and not receiving LTBI treatment.
RESULTS
At baseline, 130 randomized patients (guselkumab: n = 69; adalimumab: n = 36; placebo: n = 25) tested positive for LTBI and received concomitant LTBI treatments (LTBI+). No active TB was reported among guselkumab-treated patients without LTBI (LTBI-) through week 100. Two cases of active TB occurred in LTBI- patients treated with adalimumab. Through week 16, across all treatment groups, greater proportions of LTBI+ patients reported ALT and AST elevations compared with LTBI- patients. Through week 100, proportions of patients experiencing AEs and SAEs were comparable between LTBI+ and LTBI- patients.
CONCLUSIONS
No cases of active TB, including reactivation of LTBI, were reported in patients with or without LTBI treated with guselkumab through up to 2 years. LTBI treatment was effective across all treatment groups in preventing reactivation of LTBI. Long-term treatment with guselkumab was generally well-tolerated through up to 2 years in patients receiving LTBI medications.",2020,"Through wk100, proportions of patients experiencing AEs and SAEs were comparable between LTBI+ and LTBI- patients.

427,32291360,The Effect of an Anti-Bullying Intervention on Male Students' Bullying-victimization Behaviors and Social Competence: A Randomized Controlled Trial in Deprived Urban Areas.,"BACKGROUND
Violence among adolescents is a global public health concern. There is limited evidence on the effectiveness of anti-bullying interventions in Iran. Weaimed to examine the effectiveness of social cognitive theory (SCT)-based intervention on reducing bullying and victimization in elementary school students.
STUDY DESIGN
A randomized controlled trial.
METHODS
Eight elementary schools (consisted of 280 students in 5th and 6th grade) from deprived and semi-deprived areas of Kermanshah (west of Iran) were randomly assigned to intervention and control group from 2018 to 2019. Anti-bullying training content appropriate for SCT and sociocultural characteristics were provided to the intervention group including students, parents, teachers and school staff. The measures included SCT constructs, bullying, victimization, and social competence of students.
RESULTS
At baseline participants of two groups were homogenous in terms of demographic factors except for the type of living with the parent (P=0.040) and outcome variables including SCT constructs and bullying behaviors. The interventions significantly improved SCT constructs, reduced bullying and victimization and increased social competence in the intervention group compared to the control group (P<0.001). The difference between outcome expectations in both groups was not significant (P=0.137).
CONCLUSION
Interventions based on sociocultural characteristics and focuses on SCT theory reduce bullying and victimization behavior. Given the effectiveness and feasibility of these interventions, this theory can be effective to break the bullying cycle and improve social competence.",2019,"The interventions significantly improved SCT constructs, reduced bullying and victimization and increased social competence in the intervention group compared to the control group (P<0.001).","['elementary school students', 'Eight elementary schools (consisted of 280 students in 5th and 6th grade) from deprived and semi-deprived areas of Kermanshah (west of Iran', 'Deprived Urban Areas', ""Male Students' Bullying-victimization Behaviors and Social Competence""]","['Anti-Bullying Intervention', 'social cognitive theory (SCT)-based intervention']","['SCT constructs, reduced bullying and victimization and increased social competence', 'SCT constructs and bullying behaviors', 'SCT constructs, bullying, victimization, and social competence of students']","[{'cui': 'C0036375', 'cui_str': 'School'}, {'cui': 'C0038492', 'cui_str': 'Student'}, {'cui': 'C0332529', 'cui_str': 'Consistency'}, {'cui': 'C0205439', 'cui_str': 'Fifth'}, {'cui': 'C0441800', 'cui_str': 'Grade'}, {'cui': 'C0017446', 'cui_str': 'Geographic Locations'}, {'cui': 'C0037769', 'cui_str': 'West syndrome'}, {'cui': 'C0022065', 'cui_str': 'Iran'}, {'cui': 'C0442529', 'cui_str': 'Urban environment'}, {'cui': 'C0086582', 'cui_str': 'Male'}, {'cui': 'C0424318', 'cui_str': 'Bullying'}, {'cui': 'C0376695', 'cui_str': 'Victimization'}, {'cui': 'C0004927', 'cui_str': 'Behavior finding'}, {'cui': 'C0679005', 'cui_str': 'Social Abilities'}]","[{'cui': 'C0424318', 'cui_str': 'Bullying'}, {'cui': 'C0184661', 'cui_str': 'Procedure'}, {'cui': 'C0002055', 'cui_str': 'Alkali'}]","[{'cui': 'C0012931', 'cui_str': 'Recombinant DNA'}, {'cui': 'C0392756', 'cui_str': 'Reduced'}, {'cui': 'C0424318', 'cui_str': 'Bullying'}, {'cui': 'C0376695', 'cui_str': 'Victimization'}, {'cui': 'C0205217', 'cui_str': 'Increased'}, {'cui': 'C0679005', 'cui_str': 'Social Abilities'}, {'cui': 'C0004927', 'cui_str': 'Behavior finding'}, {'cui': 'C0038492', 'cui_str': 'Student'}]",,0.0410674,"The interventions significantly improved SCT constructs, reduced bullying and victimization and increased social competence in the intervention group compared to the control group (P<0.001).","[{'ForeName': 'Nooshin', 'Initials': 'N', 'LastName': 'Salimi', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Public Health, School of Public Health, Hamadan University of Medical Sciences, Hamadan, Iran.'}, {'ForeName': 'Akram', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Karimi-Shahanjarini', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Public Health, School of Public Health, Hamadan University of Medical Sciences, Hamadan, Iran. karimi.a@umsha.ac.ir.'}, {'ForeName': 'Forouzan', 'Initials': 'F', 'LastName': 'Rezapur-Shahkolai', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Public Health, School of Public Health, Hamadan University of Medical Sciences, Hamadan, Iran.'}, {'ForeName': 'Behrooz', 'Initials': 'B', 'LastName': 'Hamzeh', 'Affiliation': 'Research Center for Environmental Determinants of Health, Kermanshah University of Medical Sciences, Kermanshah, Iran.'}, {'ForeName': 'Ghodratollah', 'Initials': 'G', 'LastName': 'Roshanaei', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Biostatistics, Modeling of Noncommunicable Disease Research Canter, Hamadan University of Medical Sciences, Hamadan, Iran.'}, {'ForeName': 'Mohammad', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Babamiri', 'Affiliation': 'Social Determinants of Health Research Center, Hamadan University of Medical Sciences, Hamadan, Iran.'}]",Journal of research in health sciences,[]
428,27418545,Reductions in carotid chemoreceptor activity with low-dose dopamine improves baroreflex control of heart rate during hypoxia in humans.,"The purpose of the present investigation was to examine the contribution of the carotid body chemoreceptors to changes in baroreflex control of heart rate with exposure to hypoxia. We hypothesized spontaneous cardiac baroreflex sensitivity (scBRS) would be reduced with hypoxia and this effect would be blunted when carotid chemoreceptor activity was reduced with low-dose dopamine. Fifteen healthy adults (11 M/4 F) completed two visits randomized to intravenous dopamine or placebo (saline). On each visit, subjects were exposed to 5-min normoxia (~99% SpO2), followed by 5-min hypoxia (~84% SpO2). Blood pressure (intra-arterial catheter) and heart rate (ECG) were measured continuously and scBRS was assessed by spectrum and sequence methodologies. scBRS was reduced with hypoxia (P < 0.01). Using the spectrum analysis approach, the fall in scBRS with hypoxia was attenuated with infusion of low-dose dopamine (P < 0.01). The decrease in baroreflex sensitivity to rising pressures (scBRS ""up-up"") was also attenuated with low-dose dopamine (P < 0.05). However, dopamine did not attenuate the decrease in baroreflex sensitivity to falling pressures (scBRS ""down-down""; P > 0.05). Present findings are consistent with a reduction in scBRS with systemic hypoxia. Furthermore, we show this effect is partially mediated by the carotid body chemoreceptors, given the fall in scBRS is attenuated when activity of the chemoreceptors is reduced with low-dose dopamine. However, the improvement in scBRS with dopamine appears to be specific to rising blood pressures. These results may have important implications for impairments in baroreflex function common in disease states of acute and/or chronic hypoxemia, as well as the experimental use of dopamine to assess such changes.",2016,scBRS was reduced with hypoxia (P < 0.01).,"['humans', 'Fifteen healthy adults (11 M/4 F']","['intravenous dopamine or placebo (saline', 'dopamine']","['baroreflex sensitivity to rising pressures (scBRS ', 'baroreflex control of heart rate', 'Blood pressure (intra-arterial catheter) and heart rate (ECG', 'carotid chemoreceptor activity', 'scBRS', 'baroreflex sensitivity']","[{'cui': 'C0086418', 'cui_str': 'Humans'}, {'cui': 'C0686750', 'cui_str': 'Well adult (finding)'}]","[{'cui': 'C0348016', 'cui_str': 'Intravenous (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0013030', 'cui_str': 'Dopamine'}, {'cui': 'C1696465', 'cui_str': 'placebo'}, {'cui': 'C0036082', 'cui_str': 'Saline Solution'}]","[{'cui': 'C0206162', 'cui_str': 'Reflex, Baroreceptor'}, {'cui': 'C0312418', 'cui_str': 'Sensitivity (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C0035853', 'cui_str': 'Rose'}, {'cui': 'C0460139', 'cui_str': 'Pressure (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C2587213', 'cui_str': 'Controlled (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0018810', 'cui_str': 'Cardiac rate'}, {'cui': 'C0005823', 'cui_str': 'Blood Pressure'}, {'cui': 'C0694634', 'cui_str': 'Intra-arterial (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0085590', 'cui_str': 'Catheters'}, {'cui': 'C1623258', 'cui_str': 'ECG'}, {'cui': 'C0441655', 'cui_str': 'Activity (observable entity)'}]",15.0,0.0528425,scBRS was reduced with hypoxia (P < 0.01).,"[{'ForeName': 'Michael T', 'Initials': 'MT', 'LastName': 'Mozer', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Anesthesiology, Mayo Clinic, Rochester, Minnesota.'}, {'ForeName': 'Walter W', 'Initials': 'WW', 'LastName': 'Holbein', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Anesthesiology, Mayo Clinic, Rochester, Minnesota.'}, {'ForeName': 'Michael J', 'Initials': 'MJ', 'LastName': 'Joyner', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Anesthesiology, Mayo Clinic, Rochester, Minnesota.'}, {'ForeName': 'Timothy B', 'Initials': 'TB', 'LastName': 'Curry', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Anesthesiology, Mayo Clinic, Rochester, Minnesota.'}, {'ForeName': 'Jacqueline K', 'Initials': 'JK', 'LastName': 'Limberg', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Anesthesiology, Mayo Clinic, Rochester, Minnesota limberg.jacqueline@mayo.edu.'}]",Physiological reports,['10.14814/phy2.12859']
429,32291620,Efficacy of furosemide-albumin compared with furosemide in critically ill hypoalbuminemia patients admitted to intensive care unit: a prospective randomized clinical trial.,"BACKGROUND
Some physicians co-administer albumin with loop diuretics to overcome diuretic resistance in critically ill hypoalbuminemia patients, though previous studies have reported conflicting results on this matter.
OBJECTIVE
The effects of adding albumin to furosemide to enhance its efficacy in critically ill hypoalbuminemia patients are evaluated.
METHODS
This was a non-blinded randomized trial. 49 adult critically ill patients with hypoalbuminemia and generalized edema who received randomly furosemide and furosemide/albumin complex were enrolled. The patients' urine was collected at intervals of 2, 4, 6 and 8 h after initiation of the furosemide treatment, and the urine output and urinary excretion of furosemide and sodium were measured. The urinary excretion of furosemide was considered an indicator of drug efficacy.
RESULTS
The amount of sodium and furosemide excreted in urine showed no significant differences between the two groups; however, the mean of the urinary excretion of furosemide in the first 2 h after drug infusion was significantly higher (p = 0.03) in the furosemide/albumin group. No significant correlation between APACHE II scores and serum albumin levels and the urinary excretion of furosemide was seen.
CONCLUSION
The results indicated that there is not statistically significant differences between groups with furosemide alone and combined with albumin in urinary furosemide excretion. It seems that adding albumin for furosemide pharmacotherapy regime is not recommended as an intervention to increase furosemide efficacy in critically ill hypoalbuminemia patients.

430,31722153,Secondary Surgical Cytoreduction for Recurrent Ovarian Cancer.,"BACKGROUND
Secondary surgical cytoreduction in women with platinum-sensitive, recurrent epithelial ovarian, primary peritoneal, or fallopian-tube (""ovarian"") cancer is widely practiced but has not been evaluated in phase 3 investigation.
METHODS
We randomly assigned patients with recurrent ovarian cancer who had received one previous therapy, had an interval during which no platinum-based chemotherapy was used (platinum-free interval) of 6 months or more, and had investigator-determined resectable disease (to no macroscopic residual disease) to undergo secondary surgical cytoreduction and then receive platinum-based chemotherapy or to receive platinum-based chemotherapy alone. Adjuvant chemotherapy (paclitaxel-carboplatin or gemcitabine-carboplatin) and use of bevacizumab were at the discretion of the investigator. The primary end point was overall survival.
RESULTS
A total of 485 patients underwent randomization, 240 to secondary cytoreduction before chemotherapy and 245 to chemotherapy alone. The median follow-up was 48.1 months. Complete gross resection was achieved in 67% of the patients assigned to surgery who underwent the procedure. Platinum-based chemotherapy with bevacizumab followed by bevacizumab maintenance was administered to 84% of the patients overall and was equally distributed between the two groups. The hazard ratio for death (surgery vs. no surgery) was 1.29 (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.97 to 1.72; P = 0.08), which corresponded to a median overall survival of 50.6 months and 64.7 months, respectively. Adjustment for platinum-free interval and chemotherapy choice did not alter the effect. The hazard ratio for disease progression or death (surgery vs. no surgery) was 0.82 (95% CI, 0.66 to 1.01; median progression-free survival, 18.9 months and 16.2 months, respectively). Surgical morbidity at 30 days was 9%; 1 patient (0.4%) died from postoperative complications. Patient-reported quality of life decreased significantly after surgery but did not differ significantly between the two groups after recovery.
CONCLUSIONS

431,30959514,Neurophysiological signature of gamma-hydroxybutyrate augmented sleep in male healthy volunteers may reflect biomimetic sleep enhancement: a randomized controlled trial.,"Gamma-hydroxybutyrate (GHB) is an endogenous GHB/GABA B receptor agonist, which has demonstrated potency in consolidating sleep and reducing excessive daytime sleepiness in narcolepsy. Little is known whether GHB's efficacy reflects the promotion of physiological sleep mechanisms and no study has investigated its sleep consolidating effects under low sleep pressure. GHB (50 mg/kg p.o.) and placebo were administered in 20 young male volunteers at 2:30 a.m., the time when GHB is typically given in narcolepsy, in a randomized, double-blinded, crossover manner. Drug effects on sleep architecture and electroencephalographic (EEG) sleep spectra were analyzed. In addition, current source density (CSD) analysis was employed to identify the effects of GHB on the brain electrical sources of neuronal oscillations. Moreover, lagged-phase synchronization (LPS) analysis was applied to quantify the functional connectivity among sleep-relevant brain regions. GHB prolonged slow-wave sleep (stage N3) at the cost of rapid eye movement (REM) sleep. Furthermore, it enhanced delta-theta (0.5-8 Hz) activity in NREM and REM sleep, while reducing activity in the spindle frequency range (13-15 Hz) in sleep stage N2. The increase in delta power predominated in medial prefrontal cortex, parahippocampal and fusiform gyri, and posterior cingulate cortex. Theta power was particularly increased in the prefrontal cortex and both temporal poles. Moreover, the brain areas that showed increased theta power after GHB also exhibited increased lagged-phase synchronization among each other. Our study in healthy men revealed distinct similarities between GHB-augmented sleep and physiologically augmented sleep as seen in recovery sleep after prolonged wakefulness. The promotion of the sleep neurophysiological mechanisms by GHB may thus provide a rationale for GHB-induced sleep and waking quality in neuropsychiatric disorders beyond narcolepsy.",2019,"The increase in delta power predominated in medial prefrontal cortex, parahippocampal and fusiform gyri, and posterior cingulate cortex.","['20 young male volunteers', 'healthy men', 'male healthy volunteers']","['gamma-hydroxybutyrate augmented sleep', 'placebo', 'GHB', 'Gamma-hydroxybutyrate (GHB']","['sleep architecture and electroencephalographic (EEG) sleep spectra', 'delta power predominated in medial prefrontal cortex, parahippocampal and fusiform gyri, and posterior cingulate cortex', 'biomimetic sleep enhancement', 'GHB prolonged slow-wave sleep (stage N3', 'Theta power']","[{'cui': 'C0332239', 'cui_str': 'Young (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0086582', 'cui_str': 'Males'}, {'cui': 'C0042960', 'cui_str': 'Volunteer Workers'}, {'cui': 'C0086418', 'cui_str': 'Humans'}, {'cui': 'C1708335', 'cui_str': 'Healthy Participants'}]","[{'cui': 'C0000503', 'cui_str': '4-Hydroxybutyrate (substance)'}, {'cui': 'C0205217', 'cui_str': 'Increased (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0424522', 'cui_str': 'Asleep (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C1696465', 'cui_str': 'placebo'}]","[{'cui': 'C0424522', 'cui_str': 'Asleep (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C0003737', 'cui_str': 'Architecture'}, {'cui': 'C0439097', 'cui_str': 'Delta'}, {'cui': 'C0332251', 'cui_str': 'Predominate (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0205098', 'cui_str': 'Medial (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0162783', 'cui_str': 'Prefrontal Cortex'}, {'cui': 'C0228243', 'cui_str': 'Gyrus Fusiformis'}, {'cui': 'C0175191', 'cui_str': 'Posterior Cingulate'}, {'cui': 'C0872312', 'cui_str': 'Biomimicry Engineering'}, {'cui': 'C0184578', 'cui_str': 'Sleep/wake cycle facilitation'}, {'cui': 'C0000503', 'cui_str': '4-Hydroxybutyrate (substance)'}, {'cui': 'C0439590', 'cui_str': 'Prolonged (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0234451', 'cui_str': 'Sleep, Slow-Wave'}, {'cui': 'C1306673', 'cui_str': 'Stages (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0439101', 'cui_str': 'Theta'}]",20.0,0.0596478,"The increase in delta power predominated in medial prefrontal cortex, parahippocampal and fusiform gyri, and posterior cingulate cortex.","[{'ForeName': 'Dario A', 'Initials': 'DA', 'LastName': 'Dornbierer', 'Affiliation': 'Institute of Pharmacology and Toxicology, University of Zürich, Zürich, Switzerland. dornbierer@pharma.uzh.ch.'}, {'ForeName': 'Diego M', 'Initials': 'DM', 'LastName': 'Baur', 'Affiliation': 'Institute of Pharmacology and Toxicology, University of Zürich, Zürich, Switzerland.'}, {'ForeName': 'Benjamin', 'Initials': 'B', 'LastName': 'Stucky', 'Affiliation': 'Institute of Pharmacology and Toxicology, University of Zürich, Zürich, Switzerland.'}, {'ForeName': 'Boris B', 'Initials': 'BB', 'LastName': 'Quednow', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Psychiatry, Psychotherapy and Psychosomatics, Psychiatric Hospital, University of Zürich, Lenggstrasse 31, Zürich, CH-8032, Switzerland.'}, {'ForeName': 'Thomas', 'Initials': 'T', 'LastName': 'Kraemer', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Forensic Pharmacology and Toxicology, Zurich Institute of Forensic Medicine, University of Zürich, Zürich, Switzerland.'}, {'ForeName': 'Erich', 'Initials': 'E', 'LastName': 'Seifritz', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Psychiatry, Psychotherapy and Psychosomatics, Psychiatric Hospital, University of Zürich, Lenggstrasse 31, Zürich, CH-8032, Switzerland.'}, {'ForeName': 'Oliver G', 'Initials': 'OG', 'LastName': 'Bosch', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Psychiatry, Psychotherapy and Psychosomatics, Psychiatric Hospital, University of Zürich, Lenggstrasse 31, Zürich, CH-8032, Switzerland.'}, {'ForeName': 'Hans-Peter', 'Initials': 'HP', 'LastName': 'Landolt', 'Affiliation': 'Institute of Pharmacology and Toxicology, University of Zürich, Zürich, Switzerland.'}]",Neuropsychopharmacology : official publication of the American College of Neuropsychopharmacology,['10.1038/s41386-019-0382-z']
432,32284339,Neurofeedback-Linked Suppression of Cortical β Bursts Speeds Up Movement Initiation in Healthy Motor Control: A Double-Blind Sham-Controlled Study.,"Abnormally increased β bursts in cortical-basal ganglia-thalamic circuits are associated with rigidity and bradykinesia in patients with Parkinson's disease. Increased β bursts detected in the motor cortex have also been associated with longer reaction times (RTs) in healthy participants. Here we further hypothesize that suppressing β bursts through neurofeedback training can improve motor performance in healthy subjects. We conducted a double-blind sham-controlled study on 20 human volunteers (10 females) using a sequential neurofeedback-behavior task with the neurofeedback reflecting the occurrence of β bursts over sensorimotor cortex quantified in real time. The results show that neurofeedback training helps healthy participants learn to volitionally suppress β bursts in the sensorimotor cortex, with training being accompanied by reduced RT in subsequent cued movements. These changes were only significant in the real feedback group but not in the sham group, confirming the effect of neurofeedback training over simple motor imagery. In addition, RTs correlated with the rate and accumulated duration of β bursts in the contralateral motor cortex before the go-cue, but not with averaged β power. The reduced RTs induced by neurofeedback training positively correlated with reduced β bursts across all tested hemispheres. These results strengthen the link between the occurrence of β bursts in the sensorimotor cortex before the go-cue and slowed movement initiation in healthy motor control. The results also highlight the potential benefit of neurofeedback training in facilitating voluntary suppression of β bursts to speed up movement initiation. SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT This double-blind sham-controlled study suggested that neurofeedback training can facilitate volitional suppression of β bursts in sensorimotor cortex in healthy motor control better than sham feedback. The training was accompanied by reduced reaction time (RT) in subsequent cued movements, and the reduced RT positively correlated with the level of reduction in cortical β bursts before the go-cue, but not with average β power. These results provide further evidence of a causal link between sensorimotor β bursts and movement initiation and suggest that neurofeedback training could potentially be used to train participants to speed up movement initiation.",2020,"These changes were only significant in the real feedback group but not in the sham group, confirming the effect of neurofeedback training over simple motor imagery.","['healthy subjects', '20 human volunteers (10 females', 'healthy participants', ""patients with Parkinson's disease"", 'healthy motor control']","['neurofeedback training', 'sequential neurofeedback-behaviour task']","['reaction time', 'rigidity and bradykinesia', 'reduced reaction time in subsequent cued movements', 'reduced reaction times', 'motor performance']","[{'cui': 'C1708335', 'cui_str': 'Healthy Participants'}, {'cui': 'C0020155', 'cui_str': 'Human Volunteers'}, {'cui': 'C0043210', 'cui_str': 'Woman'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patient'}, {'cui': 'C0030567', 'cui_str': ""Parkinson's disease""}, {'cui': 'C0009932', 'cui_str': 'Control Groups'}]","[{'cui': 'C2713543', 'cui_str': 'Electroencephalographic biofeedback'}, {'cui': 'C0040607', 'cui_str': 'Training Programs'}, {'cui': 'C0004927', 'cui_str': 'Behavior finding'}]","[{'cui': 'C0034746', 'cui_str': 'Response Time'}, {'cui': 'C0026837', 'cui_str': 'Muscle rigidity'}, {'cui': 'C0233565', 'cui_str': 'Bradykinesia'}, {'cui': 'C0392756', 'cui_str': 'Reduced'}, {'cui': 'C0332282', 'cui_str': 'Following'}, {'cui': 'C0026649', 'cui_str': 'Movement'}]",20.0,0.0558813,"These changes were only significant in the real feedback group but not in the sham group, confirming the effect of neurofeedback training over simple motor imagery.","[{'ForeName': 'Shenghong', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'He', 'Affiliation': 'MRC Brain Network Dynamics Unit at the University of Oxford, United Kingdom Oxford OX1 3TH.'}, {'ForeName': 'Claudia', 'Initials': 'C', 'LastName': 'Everest-Phillips', 'Affiliation': 'MRC Brain Network Dynamics Unit at the University of Oxford, United Kingdom Oxford OX1 3TH.'}, {'ForeName': 'Andrew', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Clouter', 'Affiliation': 'MRC Brain Network Dynamics Unit at the University of Oxford, United Kingdom Oxford OX1 3TH.'}, {'ForeName': 'Peter', 'Initials': 'P', 'LastName': 'Brown', 'Affiliation': 'MRC Brain Network Dynamics Unit at the University of Oxford, United Kingdom Oxford OX1 3TH.'}, {'ForeName': 'Huiling', 'Initials': 'H', 'LastName': 'Tan', 'Affiliation': 'MRC Brain Network Dynamics Unit at the University of Oxford, United Kingdom Oxford OX1 3TH huiling.tan@ndcn.ox.ac.uk.'}]",The Journal of neuroscience : the official journal of the Society for Neuroscience,['10.1523/JNEUROSCI.0208-20.2020']
433,32285979,Effectiveness of nicotine gum in preventing lapses in the face of temptation to smoke among non-daily smokers: a secondary analysis.,"BACKGROUND AND AIMS
Non-daily smokers (NDS) comprise a large fraction of US smokers. Despite little or no dependence, as typically assessed, intermittent smokers (ITS) have difficulty quitting smoking. A randomized clinical trial comparing the effect of nicotine gum with placebo on quitting smoking in non-daily smokers did not find an effect on overall abstinence. We undertook an analysis to assess whether using nicotine gum versus placebo when tempted to smoke could reduce incidence of lapses in those situations.
DESIGN
Within a 6-week randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trial of nicotine gum, analyses contrasted the outcome of temptation episodes where gum was or was not used.
SETTING
Smoking cessation research clinic in Pittsburgh, PA, USA.
PARTICIPANTS
A total of 255 adult ITS (131 nicotine gum, 124 placebo) seeking help for smoking cessation.
INTERVENTION
Nicotine gum (2 mg) versus placebo for up to 8 weeks, with as-needed dosing instructions.
MEASUREMENTS
Outcome was lapsing in temptation episodes, as reported by participants via ecological momentary assessment (EMA). Propensity scores predicting gum use from situational factors (e.g. mood, social setting, smoking cues) served as a control variable.
FINDINGS
Participants reported 2713 temptation episodes, 46.0% (1248) of which resulted in smoking (lapsing). There was a significant gum use × active treatment interaction (P = 0.0009). Using nicotine gum decreased the odds of lapsing by 55% compared with using placebo [odds ratio (OR) = 0.45; 0.22-0.94]; when gum was not used, the assigned gum condition made no significant difference (OR = 1.53; 0.78-3.01; Bayes factor = 0.14). The nicotine effect was not reliably different when participants were trying to achieve abstinence versus when trying to maintain abstinence (OR = 0.44; 0.10, 2.03; P = 0.294; Bayes factor = 0.11), for men and women (OR = 1.68; 0.58, 4.87; P = 0.343; Bayes factor = 0.10), or for participants with some or no dependence (OR = 0.88; 0.30, 2.59; P = 0.811; Bayes factor = 0.06).

435,32285195,The Utility of Diaphragm Ultrasound in Reducing Time to Extubation.,"PURPOSE
Prediction of optimal timing for extubation of mechanically ventilated patients is challenging. Ultrasound measures of diaphragm thickness or diaphragm dome excursion have been used to aid in predicting extubation success or failure. The aim of this study was to determine if incorporating results of diaphragm ultrasound into usual ICU care would shorten the time to extubation.
METHODS
We performed a prospective, randomized, controlled study at three Brown University teaching hospitals. Included subjects underwent block randomization to either usual care (Control) or usual care enhanced with ultrasound measurements of the diaphragm (Intervention). The primary outcome was the time to extubation after ultrasound, and the secondary outcome was the total days on the ventilator. Only intensivists in the Intervention group would have the ultrasound information on the likelihood of successful extubation available to incorporate with traditional clinical and physiologic measures to determine the timing of extubation.
RESULTS
A total of 32 subjects were studied; 15 were randomized into the Control group and 17 into the Intervention group. The time from ultrasound to extubation was significantly reduced in the Intervention group compared to the Control group in patients with a ∆tdi% ≥ 30% (4.8 ± 8.4 vs 35.0 ± 41.0 h, p = 0.04). The time from ultrasound to extubation was shorter in subjects with a normally functioning diaphragm (∆tdi% ≥ 30%) compared to those with diaphragm dysfunction (∆tdi% < 30%) (23.2 ± 35.2 vs 57.3 ± 52.0 h p = 0.046). When combining the Intervention and Control groups, a value of ∆tdi% ≥ 30% for extubation success at 24 h provided a sensitivity, specificity, PPV and NPV of 90.9%, 86.7%, 90.9%, and 86.7%, respectively.

436,32159882,Safety and efficacy of first-line dacomitinib in Japanese patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer.,"In a subgroup of Japanese patients in the ARCHER 1050 randomized phase 3 trial, we evaluated the efficacy and safety and determined the effects of dose modifications on adverse events (AE) and therapy management of first-line oral dacomitinib 45 mg compared with oral gefitinib 250 mg, each once daily in 28-d cycles, in patients with EGFR-activating mutation-positive (EGFR-positive; exon 19 deletion or exon 21 L858R substitution mutations) advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The primary endpoint was progression-free survival (PFS; RECIST, version 1.1, by blinded independent review). In 81 Japanese patients (40 dacomitinib, 41 gefitinib), PFS was longer with dacomitinib compared with gefitinib (hazard ratio [HR], 0.544 [95% confidence interval {CI}, 0.307-0.961]; 2-sided P = .0327; median 18.2 for dacomitinib [95% CI, 11.0-31.3] mo, 9.3 [95% CI, 7.4-14.7] mo for gefitinib). The most common Grade 3 AEs were dermatitis acneiform with dacomitinib (27.5%) and increased alanine aminotransferase with gefitinib (12.2%). A higher proportion of patients receiving dacomitinib (85.0%) compared with gefitinib (24.4%) had AEs leading to dose reduction.

437,32285978,Effect of e-cigarette advertisement themes on hypothetical e-cigarette purchasing in price-responsive adolescents.,"AIMS
To examine the effect on adolescents of exposure to different e-cigarette advertisement themes on reported likelihood of purchasing e-cigarettes in a hypothetical scenario.
DESIGN
Between-subjects design of four randomly assigned thematic conditions derived from a content analysis of 350 e-cigarette advertisements: general, flavor- and taste-themed, people- and product use-themed or control advertisements for bottled water.
SETTING
Virginia, USA.
PARTICIPANTS
Of 1360 adolescents (13-18 years old) participating, 1063 had complete data (519 current cigarette smokers, 544 tobacco-susceptible non-smokers).
MEASUREMENTS
Participants completed an e-cigarette purchase task, reporting the likelihood of buying an e-cigarette at various prices. Indices of abuse liability included price responsiveness (whether likelihood of purchase decreased with increasing prices) and, among price-responsive adolescents, breakpoint (highest price before definitely would not buy), maximum probability-weighted expenditure (O max ) and price elasticity (how quickly willingness to purchase decreases as prices increase). Regressions controlled for demographics, prior tobacco ad exposure, tobacco/substance use and sensation-seeking.
FINDINGS
Prior advertisement exposure was positively associated with being price-responsive [odds ratio (OR) = 1.12, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 1.03, 1.22; P < 0.05]. Among price-responsive adolescents (n = 579), breakpoints were 58% higher in the flavor- and taste-themed condition (β = 0.46, 95% CI = <0.01, 0.92) and 75% higher in the people- and product use-themed condition (β = 0.56, 95% CI = 0.10, 1.03) compared with control (Ps < 0.05). Exposure to people- and product use-themed advertisements was associated with a 60% higher O max (β = 0.47, 95% CI = 0.01, 0.93; P < 0.05). The general and people- and product use-themed conditions were associated with 19% (β = -0.21, 95% CI = -0.38, -0.04) and 21% (β = -0.24, 95% CI = -0.42, -0.06) lower elasticity, respectively (Ps < 0.05).

438,31326978,Associations of Hearing Loss and Menopausal Hormone Therapy With Change in Global Cognition and Incident Cognitive Impairment Among Postmenopausal Women.,"BACKGROUND
Hearing loss (HL) and menopausal hormone therapy (conjugated equine estrogens [CEE] and/or medroxyprogesterone acetate [MPA]) are separately associated with cognitive decline and increased risk of incident cognitive impairment. Joint effects of HL and HT could be associated with additive or synergistic decline in global cognition and risk of incident cognitive impairment among postmenopausal women.
METHODS
Using the Women's Health Initiative (WHI) Memory Study, 7,220 postmenopausal women with measures of HL, global cognition (Modified Mini-Mental State Examination score), and cognitive impairment (centrally adjudicated diagnoses of mild cognitive impairment and dementia) from 1996 to 2009. Multivariable linear mixed-effects models were used to analyze rate of change in global cognition. Accelerated failure time models were used to evaluate time to incident cognitive impairment, stratified by HT.
RESULTS
Within the CEE-Alone trial, observed adverse effects of CEE-Alone on change in global cognition did not differ by HL, and estimated joint effects of HL and CEE-Alone were not associated with incident cognitive impairment. Within the CEE+MPA trial, while HL did not independently accelerate time to cognitive impairment, the adverse effect of CEE+MPA on global cognition was heightened in older women with HL. Older women on CEE+MPA either with HL (time ratio [TR] = 0.82, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.71, 0.94) or with normal hearing (TR = 0.86, 95% CI: 0.76, 0.97) had faster time to cognitive impairment than those with normal hearing and placebo.
CONCLUSIONS
HL may accentuate the adverse effect of CEE+MPA, not CEE-Alone, on global cognitive decline, not incident cognitive impairment, among postmenopausal women on HT.",2020,"Joint effects of HL and HT could be associated with additive or synergistic decline in global cognition and risk of incident cognitive impairment among postmenopausal women.

439,31081862,Association of Intensive Blood Pressure Reduction With Risk of Hematoma Expansion in Patients With Deep Intracerebral Hemorrhage.,"Importance
Hypertension is the strongest risk factor for spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) involving deep brain regions, but it appears to be unknown if intensive blood pressure reduction in the acute care setting decreases hematoma expansion or improves outcomes in patients with deep ICH.
Objective
To determine whether intensive blood pressure reduction is associated with decreased risk of hematoma expansion and changes in 90-day modified Rankin Scale scores and if these associations are modified by the specific deep-brain nuclei involved.
Design, Setting, and Participants
This study is an exploratory analysis of the Antihypertensive Treatment of Acute Cerebral Hemorrhage-2 international, multicenter randomized clinical trial, which was conducted from May 2011 to September 2015, enrolled eligible patients with primary ICH, and followed up with them for 90 days. Patients who had ICH and complete neuroimaging data were included in the analysis. Data analysis was completed from July 2018 to December 2018.
Exposures
Participants were randomized to either intensive treatment (with a systolic blood pressure target of 110-139 mm Hg) or standard treatment (with a systolic blood pressure target of 140-179 mm Hg).
Main Outcomes and Measures
The main outcome was hematoma expansion, defined as an increase greater than 33% in hematoma volume between baseline and 24 hours. Functional outcome was evaluated 90 days after the ICH via the modified Rankin Scale.
Results
Of 1000 trial participants, 870 (87.0%) had deep ICH, of whom 780 (89.7%) had complete neuroimaging data (of 336 thalamic and 444 basal ganglia hemorrhages). The baseline characteristics of the intensive and standard treatment groups remained balanced in this subgroup of the original study. Intensive treatment was associated with a decreased risk of hematoma expansion in univariable analysis (odds ratio [OR], 0.62 [95% CI, 0.43-0.87]; P = .006) and multivariable analysis (OR, 0.61 [95% CI, 0.42-0.88]; P = .009). This association was modified by the specific deep location of the ICH (OR, 0.44 [95% CI, 0.22-0.96]; interaction P = .02), with stratified analyses showing a reduction in risk of hematoma expansion with intensive vs standard treatment among basal ganglia ICH (OR, 0.44 [95% CI, 0.27-0.72]; P = .001) but not thalamic ICH (OR, 0.91 [95% CI, 0.51-0.64]; P = .76). Intensive treatment was not associated with an improvement in the modified Rankin Scale score distribution.
Conclusions and Relevance
Compared with standard treatment, intensive blood pressure treatment was associated with reduced hematoma expansion in deep ICH, specifically among basal ganglia hemorrhages.",2019,"Intensive treatment was not associated with an improvement in the modified Rankin Scale score distribution.

440,32191600,Countering disuse atrophy in older adults with low-volume leucine supplementation.,"Older adults are at increased risk of being bedridden and experiencing negative health outcomes including the loss of muscle tissue and functional capacity. We hypothesized that supplementing daily meals with a small quantity (3-4 g/meal) of leucine would partially preserve lean leg mass and function of older adults during bed rest. During a 7-day bed rest protocol, followed by 5 days of inpatient rehabilitation, healthy older men and women (67.8 ± 1.1 yr, 14 men; 6 women) were randomized to receive isoenergetic meals supplemented with leucine (LEU, 0.06 g/kg/meal; n = 10) or an alanine control (CON, 0.06 g/kg/meal; n = 10). Outcomes were assessed at baseline, following bed rest, and after rehabilitation. Body composition was measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. Functional capacity was assessed by knee extensor isokinetic and isometric dynamometry, peak aerobic capacity, and the short physical performance battery. Muscle fiber type, cross-sectional area, signaling protein expression levels, and single fiber characteristics were determined from biopsies of the vastus lateralis. Leucine supplementation reduced the loss of leg lean mass during bed rest (LEU vs. CON: -423 vs. -1035 ± 143 g; P = 0.008) but had limited impact on strength or endurance-based functional outcomes. Similarly, leucine had no effect on markers of anabolic signaling and protein degradation during bed rest or rehabilitation. In conclusion, providing older adults with supplemental leucine has minimal impact on total energy or protein consumption and has the potential to partially counter some, but not all, of the negative effects of inactivity on muscle health. NEW & NOTEWORTHY Skeletal muscle morphology and function in older adults was significantly compromised by 7 days of disuse. Leucine supplementation partially countered the loss of lean leg mass but did not preserve muscle function or positively impact changes at the muscle fiber level associated with bed rest or rehabilitation. Of note, our data support a relationship between myonuclear content and adaptations to muscle atrophy at the whole limb and single fiber level.",2020,Leucine supplementation reduced the loss of leg lean mass during bed rest (LEU vs. CON: -423 vs. -1035 ± 143 g; p=0.008) but had limited impact on strength or endurance based functional outcomes.,"['older adults with', 'Older adults', 'older adults during bed rest', 'healthy older men and women (67.8 ± 1.1 y, 14 men; 6 women', 'older adults with low volume leucine supplementation']","['isoenergentic meals supplemented with leucine (LEU, 0.06 g/kg/meal; n=10) or an alanine control', 'supplemental leucine', 'Leucine supplementation', 'leucine']","['knee extensor isokinetic and isometric dynamometry, peak aerobic capacity and the short physical performance battery', 'Body composition', 'Muscle fiber type, cross-sectional area, signaling protein expression levels and single fiber characteristics', 'loss of leg lean mass', 'strength or endurance based functional outcomes', 'Functional capacity', 'markers of anabolic signaling and protein degradation']","[{'cui': 'C0677546', 'cui_str': 'Old episode (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0001675', 'cui_str': 'Adult'}, {'cui': 'C0004910', 'cui_str': 'Bedrest'}, {'cui': 'C0086418', 'cui_str': 'Humans'}, {'cui': 'C0043210', 'cui_str': 'Girls'}, {'cui': 'C4517491', 'cui_str': 'One point one'}, {'cui': 'C0205251', 'cui_str': 'Low (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0449468', 'cui_str': 'Volume (property) (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0023401', 'cui_str': 'L-leucine'}]","[{'cui': 'C4553624', 'cui_str': 'With meals (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0023401', 'cui_str': 'L-leucine'}, {'cui': 'C4517412', 'cui_str': 'Zero point zero six'}, {'cui': 'C1300563', 'cui_str': 'ug/mg'}, {'cui': 'C0001898', 'cui_str': 'L-alanine'}, {'cui': 'C2587213', 'cui_str': 'Controlled (qualifier value)'}]","[{'cui': 'C1963703', 'cui_str': 'Knee region structure (body structure)'}, {'cui': 'C0444505', 'cui_str': 'Peak (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C4075461', 'cui_str': 'Short Physical Performance Battery'}, {'cui': 'C0005885', 'cui_str': 'Body Composition'}, {'cui': 'C0026845', 'cui_str': 'Muscle Tissue'}, {'cui': 'C0225326', 'cui_str': 'Fiber'}, {'cui': 'C0441704', 'cui_str': 'Typings (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0205203', 'cui_str': 'Crossed (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0205155', 'cui_str': 'Sectional (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0205146', 'cui_str': 'Area (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0033684', 'cui_str': 'Proteins'}, {'cui': 'C3854321', 'cui_str': 'Expression'}, {'cui': 'C0456079', 'cui_str': 'Level (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0205171', 'cui_str': 'Singular (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0023216', 'cui_str': 'Membrum inferius'}, {'cui': 'C1306372', 'cui_str': 'Mass, a measure of quantity of matter (property) (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0518031', 'cui_str': 'Endurance capacity'}, {'cui': 'C0178499', 'cui_str': 'Base'}, {'cui': 'C0205245', 'cui_str': 'Functional (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C1998319', 'cui_str': 'Functional capacity'}, {'cui': 'C0597304', 'cui_str': 'Protein Degradation'}]",,0.049476,Leucine supplementation reduced the loss of leg lean mass during bed rest (LEU vs. CON: -423 vs. -1035 ± 143 g; p=0.008) but had limited impact on strength or endurance based functional outcomes.,"[{'ForeName': 'Emily J', 'Initials': 'EJ', 'LastName': 'Arentson-Lantz', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Nutrition and Metabolism, University of Texas Medical Branch, Galveston, Texas.'}, {'ForeName': 'Kinga N', 'Initials': 'KN', 'LastName': 'Fiebig', 'Affiliation': 'Institute for Physical Activity and Nutrition (IPAN), Faculty of Health, Deakin University, Melbourne, Australia.'}, {'ForeName': 'Kim J', 'Initials': 'KJ', 'LastName': 'Anderson-Catania', 'Affiliation': 'Institute for Physical Activity and Nutrition (IPAN), Faculty of Health, Deakin University, Melbourne, Australia.'}, {'ForeName': 'Rachel R', 'Initials': 'RR', 'LastName': 'Deer', 'Affiliation': 'Center for Recovery, Physical Activity and Nutrition, University of Texas Medical Branch, Galveston, Texas.'}, {'ForeName': 'Adam', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Wacher', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Anesthesiology, University of Texas Medical Branch, Galveston, Texas.'}, {'ForeName': 'Christopher S', 'Initials': 'CS', 'LastName': 'Fry', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Nutrition and Metabolism, University of Texas Medical Branch, Galveston, Texas.'}, {'ForeName': 'Séverine', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Lamon', 'Affiliation': 'Institute for Physical Activity and Nutrition (IPAN), Faculty of Health, Deakin University, Melbourne, Australia.'}, {'ForeName': 'Douglas', 'Initials': 'D', 'LastName': 'Paddon-Jones', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Nutrition and Metabolism, University of Texas Medical Branch, Galveston, Texas.'}]","Journal of applied physiology (Bethesda, Md. : 1985)",['10.1152/japplphysiol.00847.2019']

Despite their clinical importance, current medications do not improve these deficits. The current study investigated the hypothesis that oxytocin, a neuropeptide implicated in social behavior, would normalize neural abnormalities in schizophrenia during ToM, and that this normalization would correlate improvement in ToM behavior. In this cross-over, double-blind, and placebo-controlled functional magnetic resonance imaging study, a single dose of 40 IU of oxytocin was administered via nasal spray to male individuals with a schizophrenia spectrum disorder (schizophrenia and schizoaffective disorder, n = 23) and healthy controls (n = 25). Participants completed two ToM tasks in the scanner, the False Belief and Person Description tasks. During both tasks, on placebo day, schizophrenia was associated with reduced accuracy, hypo-activity in the right temporo-parietal junction (rTPJ; extended into the posterior superior temporal sulcus), and hypo-connectivity between the rTPJ and medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) compared to healthy controls. Oxytocin, relative to placebo, significantly increased accuracy and rTPJ activation for ToM but not control stories in schizophrenia. Furthermore, a significant positive correlation was found between oxytocin induced increases in rTPJ activity and accuracy, indicating that oxytocin improved rTPJ activity in schizophrenia predicted behavioral improvement. Oxytocin also significantly improved connectivity between rTPJ and mPFC in schizophrenia. These findings suggest that rTPJ activity during ToM might be a potential neural target for the treatment of social cognitive deficits in schizophrenia.",2019,"During both tasks, on placebo day, schizophrenia was associated with reduced accuracy, hypo-activity in the right temporo-parietal junction (rTPJ; extended into the posterior superior temporal sulcus), and hypo-connectivity between the rTPJ and medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) compared to healthy controls.","['schizophrenia and controls', 'male\xa0individuals with a schizophrenia spectrum disorder (schizophrenia and schizoaffective disorder, n\u2009=\u200923) and healthy controls (n\u2009=\u200925']","['Oxytocin', 'placebo', 'oxytocin']","['rTPJ activity and accuracy', 'accuracy and rTPJ activation', 'Social cognitive impairments, including theory of mind (ToM', 'connectivity', 'reduced accuracy, hypo-activity', 'rTPJ activity']","[{'cui': 'C0036341', 'cui_str': 'Schizophrenic Disorders'}, {'cui': 'C2587213', 'cui_str': 'Controlled (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0086582', 'cui_str': 'Males'}, {'cui': 'C0012634', 'cui_str': 'Disease'}, {'cui': 'C0036337', 'cui_str': 'Schizoaffective Disorder'}]","[{'cui': 'C0030095', 'cui_str': 'Oxytocin'}, {'cui': 'C1696465', 'cui_str': 'placebo'}]","[{'cui': 'C0441655', 'cui_str': 'Activity (observable entity)'}, {'cui': 'C0338656', 'cui_str': 'Cognitive Dysfunction'}, {'cui': 'C0332257', 'cui_str': 'Including (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0935573', 'cui_str': 'Mentalizing'}]",,0.12082,"During both tasks, on placebo day, schizophrenia was associated with reduced accuracy, hypo-activity in the right temporo-parietal junction (rTPJ; extended into the posterior superior temporal sulcus), and hypo-connectivity between the rTPJ and medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) compared to healthy controls.","[{'ForeName': 'Lize', 'Initials': 'L', 'LastName': 'De Coster', 'Affiliation': 'University of California, San Francisco, CA, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Lisa', 'Initials': 'L', 'LastName': 'Lin', 'Affiliation': 'University of California, San Francisco, CA, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Daniel H', 'Initials': 'DH', 'LastName': 'Mathalon', 'Affiliation': 'University of California, San Francisco, CA, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Joshua D', 'Initials': 'JD', 'LastName': 'Woolley', 'Affiliation': 'University of California, San Francisco, CA, USA. josh.woolley@ucsf.edu.'}]",Neuropsychopharmacology : official publication of the American College of Neuropsychopharmacology,['10.1038/s41386-019-0417-5']
442,32285318,Random forest for prediction of contrast-induced nephropathy following coronary angiography.,"The majority of prediction models for contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) have moderate performance. Therefore, we aimed to develop a better pre-procedural prediction tool for CIN following contemporary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) or coronary angiography (CAG). A total of 3469 patients undergoing PCI/CAG between January 2010 and December 2013 were randomly divided into a training (n = 2428, 70%) and validation data-sets (n = 1041, 30%). Random forest full models were developed using 40 pre-procedural variables, of which 13 variables were selected for a reduced CIN model. CIN developed in 78 (3.21%) and 37 of patients (3.54%) in the training and validation datasets, respectively. In the validation dataset, the full and reduced models demonstrated improved discrimination over classic Mehran, ACEF CIN risk scores (AUC 0.842 and 0.825 over 0.762 and 0.701, respectively, all P < 0.05) and common estimated glomerular filtration rate. Compared to that for the Mehran risk score model, the full and reduced models had significantly improved fit based on the net reclassification improvement (all P < 0.001) and integrated discrimination improvement (P = 0.001, 0.028, respectively). Using the above models, 2462 (66.7%), 661, and 346 patients were categorized into low (< 1%), moderate (1% to 7%), and high (> 7%) risk groups, respectively.

443,32078469,Effect of acetazolamide on susceptibility to central sleep apnea in chronic spinal cord injury.,"Spinal cord injury (SCI) is an established risk factor for central sleep apnea. Acetazolamide (ACZ), a carbonic anhydrase inhibitor, has been shown to decrease the frequency of central apnea by inducing mild metabolic acidosis. We hypothesized that ACZ would decrease the propensity to develop hypocapnic central apnea and decrease the apneic threshold. We randomized 16 participants with sleep-disordered breathing (8 SCI and 8 able-bodied controls) to receive ACZ (500 mg twice a day for 3 days) or placebo with a 1-wk washout before crossing over to the other drug arm. Study nights included polysomnography and determination of the hypocapnic apneic threshold and CO 2 reserve using noninvasive ventilation. For participants with spontaneous central apnea, CO 2 was administered until central apnea was abolished, and CO 2 reserve was measured as the difference in end-tidal Pco 2 ( P E T C O 2 ) before and after. Steady-state plant gain, the response of end-tidal Pco 2 to changes in ventilation, was calculated from P E T C O 2 and V̇e ratio during stable sleep. Controller gain, the response of ventilatory drive to changes in end-tidal Pco 2 , was defined as the ratio of change in V̇e between control and hypopnea to the ΔCO 2 during stable non-rapid eye movement sleep. Treatment with ACZ for three days resulted in widening of the CO 2 reserve (-4.0 ± 1.2 vs. -3.0 ± 0.7 mmHg for able-bodied, -3.4 ± 1.9 vs. -2.2 ± 2.2 mmHg for SCI, P < 0.0001), and a corresponding decrease in the hypocapnic apnea threshold (28.3 ± 5.2 vs. 37.1 ± 5.6 mmHg for able-bodied, 29.9 ± 5.4 vs. 34.8 ± 6.9 mmHg for SCI, P < 0.0001), respectively. ACZ significantly reduced plant gain when compared with placebo (4.1 ± 1.7 vs. 5.4 ± 1.8 mmHg/L min for able-bodied, 4.1 ± 2.0 vs. 5.1 ± 1.7 mmHg·L -1 ·min for SCI, P < 0.01). Acetazolamide decreased apnea-hypopnea index (28.8 ± 22.9 vs. 39.3 ± 24.1 events/h; P = 0.05), central apnea index (0.6 ± 1.5 vs. 6.3 ± 13.1 events/h; P = 0.05), and oxyhemoglobin desaturation index (7.5 ± 8.3 vs. 19.2 ± 15.2 events/h; P = 0.01) compared with placebo. Our results suggest that treatment with ACZ decreases susceptibility to hypocapnic central apnea due to decreased plant gain. Acetazolamide may attenuate central sleep apnea and improve nocturnal oxygen saturation, but its clinical utility requires further investigation in a larger sample of patients. NEW & NOTEWORTHY Tetraplegia is a risk factor for central sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) and is associated with narrow CO 2 reserve (a marker of susceptibility to central apnea). Treatment with high-dose acetazolamide for 3 days decreased susceptibility to hypocapnic central apnea and reduced the frequency of central respiratory events during sleep. Acetazolamide may play a therapeutic role in alleviating central SDB in patients with cervical spinal cord injury, but larger clinical trials are needed.",2020,"ACZ significantly reduced PG when compared to placebo (4.1±1.7 vs 5.4±1.8 mmHg L -1 min for able-bodied, 4.1±2.0 vs 5.1±1.7 mmHg L -1 min for SCI, p<0.01).","['chronic spinal cord injury', '16 participants with sleep-disordered breathing (8 SCI, 8 able-bodied controls) to receive']","['placebo', 'acetazolamide', 'Acetazolamide', 'ACZ', 'Acetazolamide (ACZ']","['central sleep apnea', 'CO 2 reserve', 'oxyhemoglobin desaturation index', 'Steady-state plant gain (PG', 'apnea-hypopnea index', 'PG', 'central apnea index']","[{'cui': 'C0205191', 'cui_str': 'Chronic (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0037929', 'cui_str': 'Spinal Cord Trauma'}, {'cui': 'C0851578', 'cui_str': 'Sleep Disorders'}, {'cui': 'C0035203', 'cui_str': 'Breathing'}, {'cui': 'C1299581', 'cui_str': 'Able'}, {'cui': 'C2587213', 'cui_str': 'Controlled (qualifier value)'}]","[{'cui': 'C1696465', 'cui_str': 'placebo'}, {'cui': 'C0000981', 'cui_str': 'Acetazolamide'}]","[{'cui': 'C3887547', 'cui_str': 'Central sleep apnea syndrome (disorder)'}, {'cui': 'C1168591', 'cui_str': 'Oxyhaemoglobin'}, {'cui': 'C0600653', 'cui_str': 'Indexes'}, {'cui': 'C0205361', 'cui_str': 'Steady (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C1301808', 'cui_str': 'State'}, {'cui': 'C0032098', 'cui_str': 'Plants'}, {'cui': 'C2111846', 'cui_str': 'Apnea-hypopnea index'}, {'cui': 'C0520680', 'cui_str': 'Ondine Syndrome'}]",16.0,0.0364772,"ACZ significantly reduced PG when compared to placebo (4.1±1.7 vs 5.4±1.8 mmHg L -1 min for able-bodied, 4.1±2.0 vs 5.1±1.7 mmHg L -1 min for SCI, p<0.01).","[{'ForeName': 'Geoffrey', 'Initials': 'G', 'LastName': 'Ginter', 'Affiliation': 'John D.

444,32279690,Resistant starch supplementation increases crypt cell proliferative state in the rectal mucosa of older healthy participants.,"There is strong evidence that foods containing dietary fibre protect against colorectal cancer, resulting at least in part from its anti-proliferative properties. This study aimed to investigate the effects of supplementation with two non-digestible carbohydrates, resistant starch (RS) and polydextrose (PD), on crypt cell proliferative state (CCPS) in the macroscopically normal rectal mucosa of healthy individuals. We also investigated relationships between expression of regulators of apoptosis and of the cell cycle on markers of CCPS. Seventy-five healthy participants were supplemented with RS and/or PD or placebo for 50 d in a 2 × 2 factorial design in a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial (the Dietary Intervention, Stem cells and Colorectal Cancer (DISC) Study). CCPS was assessed, and the expression of regulators of the cell cycle and of apoptosis was measured by quantitative PCR in rectal mucosal biopsies. SCFA concentrations were quantified in faecal samples collected pre- and post-intervention. Supplementation with RS increased the total number of mitotic cells within the crypt by 60 % (P = 0·001) compared with placebo. This effect was limited to older participants (aged ≥50 years). No other differences were observed for the treatments with PD or RS as compared with their respective controls. PD did not influence any of the measured variables. RS, however, increased cell proliferation in the crypts of the macroscopically-normal rectum of older adults. Our findings suggest that the effects of RS on CCPS are not only dose, type of RS and health status-specific but are also influenced by age.",2020,Supplementation with RS increased the total number of mitotic cells within the crypt by 60% (p=0.001) compared with placebo.,"['75 healthy participants', 'older participants (aged ≥50', 'older healthy participants', 'macroscopically-normal rectal mucosa of healthy individuals']","['RS and/or PD or placebo', 'supplementation with two non-digestible carbohydrates, resistant starch (RS) and polydextrose (PD', 'Resistant starch supplementation', 'placebo']","['expression of regulators of the cell cycle and of apoptosis', 'SCFA concentrations', 'total number of mitotic cells', 'crypt cell proliferative state (CCPS', 'cell proliferation', 'crypt cell proliferative state']","[{'cui': 'C1708335', 'cui_str': 'Healthy Participants'}, {'cui': 'C0580836', 'cui_str': 'Old'}, {'cui': 'C0205307', 'cui_str': 'Normal'}, {'cui': 'C0227395', 'cui_str': 'Rectal mucous membrane structure'}, {'cui': 'C0027361', 'cui_str': 'Person'}]","[{'cui': 'C0332325', 'cui_str': 'Resistant'}, {'cui': 'C0038179', 'cui_str': 'Starch'}, {'cui': 'C0071545', 'cui_str': 'polydextrose'}, {'cui': 'C0032042', 'cui_str': 'Sham Treatment'}, {'cui': 'C0242297', 'cui_str': 'Nutritional supplementation'}, {'cui': 'C0007004', 'cui_str': 'carbohydrates'}]","[{'cui': 'C0015457', 'cui_str': 'Facial expression'}, {'cui': 'C0007634', 'cui_str': 'Cell structure'}, {'cui': 'C0162638', 'cui_str': 'Apoptosis'}, {'cui': 'C0015691', 'cui_str': 'Short chain fatty acid'}, {'cui': 'C0004268', 'cui_str': 'Attention'}, {'cui': 'C0439810', 'cui_str': 'Total'}, {'cui': 'C0237753', 'cui_str': 'Number'}, {'cui': 'C0230518', 'cui_str': 'Mitotic cell'}, {'cui': 'C0007584', 'cui_str': 'Cell count'}, {'cui': 'C0334094', 'cui_str': 'Proliferation'}, {'cui': 'C1301808', 'cui_str': 'State'}, {'cui': 'C0596290', 'cui_str': 'Cellular Proliferation'}]",75.0,0.290488,Supplementation with RS increased the total number of mitotic cells within the crypt by 60% (p=0.001) compared with placebo.,"[{'ForeName': 'Fiona C', 'Initials': 'FC', 'LastName': 'Malcomson', 'Affiliation': 'Human Nutrition Research Centre, Population Health Sciences Institute, Newcastle University, Newcastle upon TyneNE2 4HH, UK.'}, {'ForeName': 'Naomi D', 'Initials': 'ND', 'LastName': 'Willis', 'Affiliation': 'Human Nutrition Research Centre, Population Health Sciences Institute, Newcastle University, Newcastle upon TyneNE2 4HH, UK.'}, {'ForeName': 'Iain', 'Initials': 'I', 'LastName': 'McCallum', 'Affiliation': 'Northumbria Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust, North ShieldsNE29 8NH, UK.'}, {'ForeName': 'Long', 'Initials': 'L', 'LastName': 'Xie', 'Affiliation': 'Human Nutrition Research Centre, Population Health Sciences Institute, Newcastle University, Newcastle upon TyneNE2 4HH, UK.'}, {'ForeName': 'Arthur C', 'Initials': 'AC', 'LastName': 'Ouwehand', 'Affiliation': 'DuPont Nutrition & Biosciences, 02460Kantvik, Finland.'}, {'ForeName': 'Julian D', 'Initials': 'JD', 'LastName': 'Stowell', 'Affiliation': 'DuPont Nutrition & Biosciences, ReigateRH2 9PQ, UK.'}, {'ForeName': 'Seamus', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Kelly', 'Affiliation': 'Northumbria Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust, North ShieldsNE29 8NH, UK.'}, {'ForeName': 'D Michael', 'Initials': 'DM', 'LastName': 'Bradburn', 'Affiliation': 'Northumbria Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust, AshingtonNE63 9JJ, UK.'}, {'ForeName': 'Nigel J', 'Initials': 'NJ', 'LastName': 'Belshaw', 'Affiliation': 'University of East Anglia, Norwich Research Park, NorwichNR4 7TJ, UK.'}, {'ForeName': 'Ian T', 'Initials': 'IT', 'LastName': 'Johnson', 'Affiliation': 'Quadram Institute, Norwich Research Park, NorwichNR4 7UQ, UK.'}, {'ForeName': 'John C', 'Initials': 'JC', 'LastName': 'Mathers', 'Affiliation': 'Human Nutrition Research Centre, Population Health Sciences Institute, Newcastle University, Newcastle upon TyneNE2 4HH, UK.'}]",The British journal of nutrition,['10.1017/S0007114520001312']
445,32279841,Bioresorbable Vascular Scaffolds Versus Drug-Eluting Stents for Diffuse Long Coronary Narrowings.,"Clinical benefits of bioresorbable vascular scaffold (BVS) implantation for long coronary lesions were not sufficiently evaluated. The efficacy and safety of BVS and metallic everolimus-eluting stent (EES) were compared for the treatment of long coronary narrowings. A total of 341 patients with diffuse long lesions (requiring device length ≥28 mm) were randomized to receive either BVS (n = 171) or EES (n = 170) implantation. The primary endpoint was major adverse cardiovascular events which included death from cardiac cause, myocardial infarction, device thrombosis, or ischemia-driven target-lesion revascularization at 12 months. The trial was terminated early because the manufacturer stopped supplying BVS. The mean lesion length was 32.2 ± 13.1 mm in the BVS group and 35.3 ± 13.0 mm in the EES group. The 12-month follow-up was completed in 332 patients (97.4%). At 12 months, the primary endpoint events occurred in 2 patients (1.2%) in the BVS group and in 4 patients (2.4%) in the EES group (hazard ratio = 0.49, 95% confidence interval = 0.09 to 2.67, p = 0.398). Definite or probable device thrombosis occurred in 1 patient (0.6%) in the BVS group and 1 patient (0.6%) in the EES group (hazard ratio = 1.00, 95% confidence interval = 0.06 to 15.94, p = 0.998). In conclusion, in patients with long native coronary artery disease, significant differences between BVS and EES were not observed regarding the primary composite endpoint of death from cardiac cause, myocardial infarction, device thrombosis, or target-lesion revascularization at 12 months.

446,32044802,Subomohyoid Anterior Suprascapular Block versus Interscalene Block for Arthroscopic Shoulder Surgery: A Multicenter Randomized Trial.,"BACKGROUND
Interscalene brachial plexus block, the pain relief standard for shoulder surgery, is an invasive technique associated with important complications. The subomohyoid anterior suprascapular block is a potential alternative, but evidence of its comparative analgesic effect is sparse. The authors tested the hypothesis that anterior suprascapular block is noninferior to interscalene block for improving pain control after shoulder surgery. As a secondary objective, the authors evaluated the success of superior trunk (C5-C6 dermatomes) block with suprascapular block.
METHODS
In this multicenter double-blind noninferiority randomized trial, 140 patients undergoing shoulder surgery were randomized to either interscalene or anterior suprascapular block with 15 ml of ropivacaine 0.5% and epinephrine. The primary outcome was area under the curve of postoperative visual analog scale pain scores during the first 24 h postoperatively. The 90% CI for the difference (interscalene-suprascapular) was compared against a -4.4-U noninferiority margin. Secondary outcomes included presence of superior trunk blockade, pain scores at individual time points, opioid consumption, time to first analgesic request, opioid-related side-effects, and quality of recovery.
RESULTS
A total of 136 patients were included in the analysis. The mean difference (90% CI) in area under the curve of pain scores for the (interscalene-suprascapular) comparison was -0.3 U (-0.8 to 0.12), exceeding the noninferiority margin of -4.4 U and demonstrating noninferiority of suprascapular block. The risk ratio (95% CI) of combined superior trunk (C5-C6 dermatomes) blockade was 0.98 (0.92 to 1.01), excluding any meaningful difference in superior trunk block success rates between the two groups. When differences in other analgesic outcomes existed, they were not clinically important.

This phase II, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, parallel-group study in five European countries evaluated the efficacy and safety of F17464, 20 mg twice daily, versus placebo over 6 weeks in patients with acute exacerbation of schizophrenia. Change from baseline to Day 43 of the Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS) total score was the primary outcome. The data from 134 randomized patients (67 per group) were analyzed (efficacy/safety). Using analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) after last observation carried forward (LOCF) imputation (primary analysis), the PANSS total score reduction was statistically significantly greater for F17464 than placebo treated subjects at endpoint (p = 0.014); using ANCOVA with Multiple Imputation (MI) method, the between-group difference was in favor of F17464 but did not reach statistical significance. Differences in PANSS positive and general psychopathology subscale score, Marder positive factor score, PANSS response, and PANSS resolution criteria were also statistically significant in favor of F17464 (p values < 0.05) using the LOCF method, with similar results as for the primary analysis using the MI method. Treatment-related adverse events (AEs) were reported in 49.3% and 46.3% of patients on F17464 and placebo, respectively.

450,32151708,Changes in serum estrogenic activity during neoadjuvant therapy with letrozole and exemestane.,"The aromatase inhibitors (AIs), letrozole (Femar®/Femara®) and exemestane (Aromasin®), are widely used to treat estrogen receptor (ER) positive breast cancer in postmenopausal patients. In the setting of metastatic breast cancer, these drugs may be used after another causing new responses in selected patients after progressing on the first choice. The precise explanation for this ""lack of cross resistance"" is still missing. NEOLETEXE is a neoadjuvant, randomized, open-label, cross-over trial. Postmenopausal patients with ER-positive, HER-2 negative, locally advanced breast cancer were enrolled. All patients were randomized to treatment starting with either letrozole or exemestane for at least 2 months followed by another 2 months on the alternative AI. The total estrogenic activities in blood samples were determined using the AroER tri-screen assay developed in the Chen laboratory. Using this highly sensitive assay, estrogenic activity was detected at three time points for all patients. Importantly, a significantly higher total estrogenic activity was found during therapy with exemestane compared to letrozole in 21 out of 26 patients. When letrozole was included in the AroER tri-screen assay, the estrogenic activities in most samples collected during exemestane treatment were further reduced, suggesting that low levels of androgens remained in specimens obtained after exemestane treatment. Our results suggest the AroER tri-screen to be a very sensitive method to estimate the overall estrogen-mediated activity in human samples even during therapy with highly potent aromatase inhibitors. In the present study, serum estrogen activity was significantly higher during exemestane therapy when compared to letrozole therapy.",2020,"In the present study, serum estrogen activity was significantly higher during exemestane therapy when compared to letrozole therapy.","['postmenopausal patients', 'Postmenopausal patients with ER-positive, HER-2 negative, locally advanced breast cancer were enrolled']","['letrozole', 'letrozole and exemestane', 'aromatase inhibitors (AIs), letrozole (Femar®/Femara®) and exemestane (Aromasin®', 'letrozole or exemestane', 'exemestane']","['total estrogenic activities in blood samples', 'serum estrogenic activity', 'estrogenic activity', 'serum estrogen activity', 'total estrogenic activity', 'estrogenic activities']","[{'cui': 'C0232970', 'cui_str': 'Postmenopausal state (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C1446409', 'cui_str': 'Positive (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0205160', 'cui_str': 'Negative (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C3495949', 'cui_str': 'Locally advanced breast cancer'}]","[{'cui': 'C0246421', 'cui_str': 'letrozole'}, {'cui': 'C0851344', 'cui_str': 'exemestane'}, {'cui': 'C0593802', 'cui_str': 'Aromatase Inhibitors'}, {'cui': 'C0876723', 'cui_str': 'Aromasin'}]","[{'cui': 'C0439810', 'cui_str': 'Total (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0441655', 'cui_str': 'Activity (observable entity)'}, {'cui': 'C0178913', 'cui_str': 'Blood specimen'}, {'cui': 'C0229671', 'cui_str': 'Serum'}, {'cui': 'C0857965', 'cui_str': 'Serum oestrogen'}]",26.0,0.0127101,"In the present study, serum estrogen activity was significantly higher during exemestane therapy when compared to letrozole therapy.","[{'ForeName': 'Nazli', 'Initials': 'N', 'LastName': 'Bahrami', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Oncology, Akershus University Hospital (AHUS), Lørenskog, Norway; Department of Breast and Endocrine Surgery, Akershus University Hospital, Lørenskog, Norway.'}, {'ForeName': 'Gregory', 'Initials': 'G', 'LastName': 'Chang', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Cancer Biology, Beckman Research Institute of the City of Hope, Duarte, CA, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Noriko', 'Initials': 'N', 'LastName': 'Kanaya', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Cancer Biology, Beckman Research Institute of the City of Hope, Duarte, CA, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Torill', 'Initials': 'T', 'LastName': 'Sauer', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Pathology, Akershus University Hospital, Lørenskog, Norway; Institute of Clinical Medicine, University of Oslo, Campus AHUS, Norway.'}, {'ForeName': 'Daehoon', 'Initials': 'D', 'LastName': 'Park', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Pathology, Akershus University Hospital, Lørenskog, Norway.'}, {'ForeName': 'Marie', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Loeng', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Oncology, Akershus University Hospital (AHUS), Lørenskog, Norway.'}, {'ForeName': 'Berit', 'Initials': 'B', 'LastName': 'Gravdehaug', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Breast and Endocrine Surgery, Akershus University Hospital, Lørenskog, Norway.'}, {'ForeName': 'Shiuan', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Chen', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Cancer Biology, Beckman Research Institute of the City of Hope, Duarte, CA, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Jürgen', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Geisler', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Oncology, Akershus University Hospital (AHUS), Lørenskog, Norway; Institute of Clinical Medicine, University of Oslo, Campus AHUS, Norway.

451,32271377,Durvalumab With or Without Tremelimumab vs Standard Chemotherapy in First-line Treatment of Metastatic Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer: The MYSTIC Phase 3 Randomized Clinical Trial.,"Importance
Checkpoint inhibitors targeting programmed cell death 1 or its ligand (PD-L1) as monotherapies or in combination with anti-cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated antigen 4 have shown clinical activity in patients with metastatic non-small cell lung cancer.
Objective
To compare durvalumab, with or without tremelimumab, with chemotherapy as a first-line treatment for patients with metastatic non-small cell lung cancer.
Design, Setting, and Participants
This open-label, phase 3 randomized clinical trial (MYSTIC) was conducted at 203 cancer treatment centers in 17 countries. Patients with treatment-naive, metastatic non-small cell lung cancer who had no sensitizing EGFR or ALK genetic alterations were randomized to receive treatment with durvalumab, durvalumab plus tremelimumab, or chemotherapy. Data were collected from July 21, 2015, to October 30, 2018.
Interventions
Patients were randomized (1:1:1) to receive treatment with durvalumab (20 mg/kg every 4 weeks), durvalumab (20 mg/kg every 4 weeks) plus tremelimumab (1 mg/kg every 4 weeks, up to 4 doses), or platinum-based doublet chemotherapy.
Main Outcomes and Measures
The primary end points, assessed in patients with ≥25% of tumor cells expressing PD-L1, were overall survival (OS) for durvalumab vs chemotherapy, and OS and progression-free survival (PFS) for durvalumab plus tremelimumab vs chemotherapy. Analysis of blood tumor mutational burden (bTMB) was exploratory.
Results
Between July 21, 2015, and June 8, 2016, 1118 patients were randomized. Baseline demographic and disease characteristics were balanced between treatment groups. Among 488 patients with ≥25% of tumor cells expressing PD-L1, median OS was 16.3 months (95% CI, 12.2-20.8) with durvalumab vs 12.9 months (95% CI, 10.5-15.0) with chemotherapy (hazard ratio [HR], 0.76; 97.54% CI, 0.56-1.02; P = .04 [nonsignificant]). Median OS was 11.9 months (95% CI, 9.0-17.7) with durvalumab plus tremelimumab (HR vs chemotherapy, 0.85; 98.77% CI, 0.61-1.17; P = .20). Median PFS was 3.9 months (95% CI, 2.8-5.0) with durvalumab plus tremelimumab vs 5.4 months (95% CI, 4.6-5.8) with chemotherapy (HR, 1.05; 99.5% CI, 0.72-1.53; P = .71). Among 809 patients with evaluable bTMB, those with a bTMB ≥20 mutations per megabase showed improved OS for durvalumab plus tremelimumab vs chemotherapy (median OS, 21.9 months [95% CI, 11.4-32.8] vs 10.0 months [95% CI, 8.1-11.7]; HR, 0.49; 95% CI, 0.32-0.74). Treatment-related adverse events of grade 3 or higher occurred in 55 (14.9%) of 369 patients who received treatment with durvalumab, 85 (22.9%) of 371 patients who received treatment with durvalumab plus tremelimumab, and 119 (33.8%) of 352 patients who received treatment with chemotherapy. These adverse events led to death in 2 (0.5%), 6 (1.6%), and 3 (0.9%) patients, respectively.
Conclusions and Relevance
The phase 3 MYSTIC study did not meet its primary end points of improved OS with durvalumab vs chemotherapy or improved OS or PFS with durvalumab plus tremelimumab vs chemotherapy in patients with ≥25% of tumor cells expressing PD-L1. Exploratory analyses identified a bTMB threshold of ≥20 mutations per megabase for optimal OS benefit with durvalumab plus tremelimumab.

452,32278783,"Re-evaluation of the Uplift Clinical Trial, Using Age-Appropriate Spirometric Criteria.","BACKGROUND
The clinical trial of tiotropium in COPD, UPLIFT, enrolled adults with a mean age of 65 years and moderate-to-severe airflow obstruction, based on criteria from the Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease (GOLD). For the UPLIFT cohort, however, GOLD-based criteria are not age-appropriate.
RESEARCH QUESTION
Will the use of more age-appropriate criteria for airflow obstruction from the Global Lung Function Initiative (GLI) modify the spirometric classification of the UPLIFT cohort and, in turn, the mortality effect of tiotropium in COPD?
STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS
Baseline spirometric classifications were first cross-tabulated by GLI- and GOLD-based criteria. Next, in GLI- and GOLD-based airflow obstruction, modified intention-to-treat analyses evaluated differences in time to death over 4 years, comparing tiotropium vs placebo. Because treatment response may differ by COPD severity, the mortality effect also was evaluated within stratum defined by GLI- and GOLD-based moderate and severe airflow obstruction.
RESULTS
Of 5,898 participants with GOLD-based airflow-obstruction, staged as moderate in 2,739 (46.4%) and severe in 3,156 (53.5%), GLI-based criteria established airflow obstruction in 5,750 (97.5%), staged as moderate in 795 (13.5%) and severe in 4,947 (83.9%). Relative to placebo, tiotropium yielded statistically nonsignificant adjusted hazard ratios (adjHRs) (95% CI) for death of 0.91 (0.80, 1.04) and 0.91 (0.79, 1.03) in GLI- and GOLD-based airflow obstruction, respectively. However, statistically significant effect modification was observed, but only in GLI-based moderate and severe airflow-obstruction, with tiotropium yielding adjHRs for death of 0.53 (0.34, 0.81) and 0.99 (0.86, 1.13), respectively. The P value for interaction was .007.

453,31426018,Deceptive but not open label placebos attenuate motion-induced nausea.,"OBJECTIVE
Nausea is a common complaint, known to respond to the placebo effect. Existing research has employed deception when administering placebos for nausea, limiting therapeutic translation on ethical grounds. We therefore examined the potential of non-deceptive open-label placebos (OLPs) to reduce nausea.
METHODS
Galvanic Vestibular Stimulation (GVS) and Virtual Reality (VR) were employed to model nausea in healthy volunteers across two experiments. In both experiments nausea was elicited with and without sham treatment (peppermint vapor and brain stimulation, respectively). In Exp. 1, participants (n = 61) were randomized to deceptive placebo, semi-open placebo, fully-open placebo, or control. In Exp. 2, participants (n = 93) were randomized to deceptive placebo, semi-open placebo, or control.
RESULTS
Exp. 1 found limited evidence for a placebo effect (F(1, 56) = 1.15, p = .29, η p 2 =0.02), even following deceptive treatment (F(1, 56) = 1.92, p = .17, η p 2 =0.03). In Exp. 2, deceptive placebo reduced nausea relative to control (F(1, 89) = 6.91, p = .010, η p 2 =0.07) and OLP (F(1, 89) = 5.47, p = .022, η p 2 =0.06). Pooled Bayesian analysis across experiments provided strong evidence that deceptive placebos reduce nausea relative to control (BF 10 = 30.91) and anecdotal evidence for the benefit of deceptive treatment over non-deceptive (BF 10 = 2.46) and no benefit of OLP over control (BF 10 = 0.63).
CONCLUSIONS
No positive evidence for OLP effects in nausea were observed. However, a deceptive effect in VR was observed. These findings raise questions regarding the efficacy of open-label intervention in nausea.",2019,"In Exp. 2, deceptive placebo reduced nausea relative to control (F(1, 89) = 6.91, p = .010, η p 2 =0.07) and OLP (F(1, 89) = 5.47, p = .022, η p 2 =0.06).","['participants (n\u202f=\u202f61', 'participants (n\u202f=\u202f93', 'healthy volunteers across two experiments']","['deceptive placebo, semi-open placebo, or control', 'non-deceptive open-label placebos (OLPs', 'Galvanic Vestibular Stimulation (GVS) and Virtual Reality (VR', 'deceptive placebo, semi-open placebo, fully-open placebo, or control']","['OLP effects in nausea', 'nausea relative', 'nausea', 'OLP']","[{'cui': 'C1708335', 'cui_str': 'Healthy Participants'}]","[{'cui': 'C1696465', 'cui_str': 'placebo'}, {'cui': 'C0175566', 'cui_str': 'Patent (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C2587213', 'cui_str': 'Controlled (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0032042', 'cui_str': 'Sham Treatment'}, {'cui': 'C1292856', 'cui_str': 'Stimulation procedure (procedure)'}, {'cui': 'C0871582', 'cui_str': 'Virtual Reality'}]","[{'cui': 'C1280500', 'cui_str': 'Effect (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0027497', 'cui_str': 'Nausea'}, {'cui': 'C0205345', 'cui_str': 'Relative (qualifier value)'}]",,0.412805,"In Exp. 2, deceptive placebo reduced nausea relative to control (F(1, 89) = 6.91, p = .010, η p 2 =0.07) and OLP (F(1, 89) = 5.47, p = .022, η p 2 =0.06).","[{'ForeName': 'K', 'Initials': 'K', 'LastName': 'Barnes', 'Affiliation': 'University of Sydney, Australia.

454,30718038,Pretreatment Rostral Anterior Cingulate Cortex Connectivity With Salience Network Predicts Depression Recovery: Findings From the EMBARC Randomized Clinical Trial.,"BACKGROUND
Baseline rostral anterior cingulate cortex (rACC) activity is a well-replicated nonspecific predictor of depression improvement. The rACC is a key hub of the default mode network, which prior studies indicate is hyperactive in major depressive disorder. Because default mode network downregulation is reliant on input from the salience network and frontoparietal network, an important question is whether rACC connectivity with these systems contributes to depression improvement.
METHODS
Our study evaluated this hypothesis in outpatients (N = 238; 151 female) enrolled in the Establishing Moderators and Biosignatures of Antidepressant Response for Clinical Care (EMBARC) 8-week randomized clinical trial of sertraline versus placebo for major depressive disorder. Depression severity was measured using the Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression, and electroencephalography was recorded at baseline and week 1. Exact low-resolution electromagnetic tomography was used to compute activity from the rACC, and key regions within the default mode network (posterior cingulate cortex), frontoparietal network (left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex), and salience network (right anterior insula [rAI]). Connectivity in the theta band (4.5-7 Hz) and beta band (12.5-21 Hz) was computed using lagged phase synchronization.
RESULTS
Stronger baseline theta-band rACC-rAI (salience network hub) connectivity predicted greater depression improvement across 8 weeks of treatment for both treatment arms (B = -0.57, 95% confidence interval = -1.07, -0.08, p = .03). Early increases in theta-band rACC-rAI connectivity predicted greater likelihood of achieving remission at week 8 (odds ratio = 2.90, p = .03).
CONCLUSIONS
Among patients undergoing treatment, theta-band rACC-rAI connectivity is a prognostic, albeit treatment-nonspecific, indicator of depression improvement, and early connectivity changes may predict clinically meaningful outcomes.",2019,"Connectivity in the theta band (4.5-7 Hz) and beta band (12.5-21 Hz) was computed using lagged phase synchronization.

455,32277809,"Clofazimine for treatment of cryptosporidiosis in HIV-infected adults (CRYPTOFAZ): an experimental medicine, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled phase 2a trial.","BACKGROUND
We evaluated efficacy, pharmacokinetics (PK), and safety of clofazimine (CFZ) in HIV-infected patients with cryptosporidiosis.
METHODS
We performed a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study. Primary outcomes in Part A were reduction in Cryptosporidium shedding, safety, and PK. Primary analysis was according to protocol (ATP). Part B of the study compared CFZ PK in matched HIV-infected individuals without cryptosporidiosis.
RESULTS
Twenty Part A and 10 Part B participants completed the study ATP. Almost all Part A participants had high viral loads and low CD4 counts, consistent with failure of antiretroviral (ARV) therapy. At study entry, the Part A CFZ group had higher Cryptosporidium shedding, total stool weight, and more diarrheal episodes compared to the placebo group. Over the inpatient period, compared to those who received placebo, the CFZ group Cryptosporidium shedding increased by 2.17 log2Cryptosporidium per gram stool (95% upper confidence limit: 3.82), total stool weight decreased by 45.3 g (p=0.37), and number of diarrheal episodes increased by 2.32 (p=0.87). The most frequent solicited adverse effects were diarrhea, abdominal pain, and malaise. Three CFZ and 1 placebo subjects died during the study. Plasma levels of CFZ in participants with cryptosporidiosis were 2-fold lower than Part B controls.
CONCLUSION
Our findings do not support the efficacy of CFZ for the treatment of cryptosporidiosis in a severely immunocompromised HIV population. However, this trial demonstrates a pathway to assess the therapeutic potential of drugs for cryptosporidiosis treatment. Screening persons with HIV for diarrhea, and especially Cryptosporidium infection, may identify those failing ARV therapy.",2020,"Over the inpatient period, compared to those who received placebo, the

456,32277977,The influence of prolonged strength training upon muscle and fat in healthy and chronically diseased older adults.,"BACKGROUND
Physical muscle function and brain hippocampus size declines with age, accelerating after the age of 60. Strength training over a few months improves physical function, but less is known about how long-term strength training affects physical function and hippocampus volume. Therefore, we aimed to investigate the effect of 1-year strength training of two different intensities upon muscle mass, function, and hippocampus volume in retirement-age individuals.
METHODS
In this multidisciplinary randomized controlled trial (clinicaltrials.gov: NCT02123641), participants were allocated to either a) supervised, heavy resistance training (HRT, n = 149, 3/wk), b) moderate intensity resistance training (MIT, n = 154, 3/wk) or c) non-exercise activities (CON, n = 148). 451 participants were randomized (62-70 yrs., women 61%, ≈80% with a chronic medical disease) and 419 were included in the intention-to-treat analysis (n = 143, 144 and 132; HRT, MIT and CON). Changes in muscle power (primary outcome), strength and size, physical function, body composition, hippocampus volume and physical/mental well-being were analyzed.
FINDINGS
Of the participants (HRT + MIT), 83% completed training at least 2/week. Leg extensor power was unchanged in all groups, but strength training had a positive effect on isometric knee extensor strength in both groups, whereas an increased muscle mass, cross-sectional area of vastus lateralis muscle, a decreased whole-body fat percentage, visceral fat content and an improved mental health (SF-36) occurred in HRT only. Further, chair-stand performance improved in all groups, whereas hippocampus volume decreased in all groups over time with no influence of strength training.
INTERPRETATION
Together, the results indicate that leg extensor power did not respond to long-term supervised strength training, but this type of training in a mixed group of healthy and chronically diseased elderly individuals can be implemented with good compliance and induces consistent changes in physiological parameters of muscle strength, muscle mass and abdominal fat.",2020,"Leg extensor power was unchanged in all groups, but strength training had a positive effect on isometric knee extensor strength in both groups, whereas an increased muscle mass, cross-sectional area of vastus lateralis muscle, a decreased whole-body fat percentage, visceral fat content and an improved mental health (SF-36) occurred in HRT only.","['retirement-age individuals', ' women 61%, ≈80% with a chronic medical disease) and 419 were included in the intention-to-treat analysis (n\u202f=\u202f143, 144 and 132; HRT, MIT and CON', '451 participants were randomized (62-70\u202fyrs', 'healthy and chronically diseased older adults']","['heavy resistance training (HRT, n\u202f=\u202f149, 3/wk), b) moderate intensity resistance training (MIT, n\u202f=\u202f154, 3/wk) or c) non-exercise activities (CON, n\u202f=\u202f148', 'prolonged strength training', 'Strength training']","['Changes in muscle power (primary outcome), strength and size, physical function, body composition, hippocampus volume and physical/mental well-being were analyzed', 'hippocampus volume', 'increased muscle mass, cross-sectional area of vastus lateralis muscle, a decreased whole-body fat percentage, visceral fat content and an improved mental health (SF-36', 'Leg extensor power', 'physical function', 'chair-stand performance', 'isometric knee extensor strength']","[{'cui': 'C0035345', 'cui_str': 'Retired'}, {'cui': 'C0001779', 'cui_str': 'Age'}, {'cui': 'C0027361', 'cui_str': 'Person'}, {'cui': 'C0043210', 'cui_str': 'Woman'}, {'cui': 'C0205191', 'cui_str': 'Chronic'}, {'cui': 'C0199168', 'cui_str': 'Medical service'}, {'cui': 'C0012634', 'cui_str': 'Disease'}, {'cui': 'C0332257', 'cui_str': 'Including'}, {'cui': 'C2718028', 'cui_str': 'Intention to Treat Analysis'}, {'cui': 'C4517573', 'cui_str': '143'}, {'cui': 'C4760627', 'cui_str': '144'}, {'cui': 'C0282402', 'cui_str': 'Hormone replacement therapy'}, {'cui': 'C5191282', 'cui_str': '451'}, {'cui': 'C0001792', 'cui_str': 'Elderly person'}]","[{'cui': 'C0439539', 'cui_str': 'Heavy (weight)'}, {'cui': 'C0872279', 'cui_str': 'Strength Training'}, {'cui': 'C0282402', 'cui_str': 'Hormone replacement therapy'}, {'cui': 'C5191071', 'cui_str': '149'}, {'cui': 'C4081855', 'cui_str': 'Moderate intensity'}, {'cui': 'C5191279', 'cui_str': '154'}, {'cui': 'C0015259', 'cui_str': 'Exercise'}, {'cui': 'C0026606', 'cui_str': 'Physical activity'}]","[{'cui': 'C0392747', 'cui_str': 'Changing'}, {'cui': 'C0427052', 'cui_str': 'Finding of power of skeletal muscle'}, {'cui': 'C0205225', 'cui_str': 'Principal'}, {'cui': 'C1274040', 'cui_str': 'Result'}, {'cui': 'C0456389', 'cui_str': 'Size'}, {'cui': 'C0031809', 'cui_str': 'Physical examination'}, {'cui': 'C0031843', 'cui_str': 'PH'}, {'cui': 'C0005885', 'cui_str': 'Body composition'}, {'cui': 'C0019564', 'cui_str': 'Hippocampal structure'}, {'cui': 'C0449468', 'cui_str': 'Volume'}, {'cui': 'C0025353', 'cui_str': 'Mental Hygiene'}, {'cui': 'C0205217', 'cui_str': 'Increased'}, {'cui': 'C0240417', 'cui_str': 'Form of muscle'}, {'cui': 'C0010362', 'cui_str': 'Cross Sectional Analysis'}, {'cui': 'C0017446', 'cui_str': 'Geographic Locations'}, {'cui': 'C0026845', 'cui_str': 'Muscle tissue'}, {'cui': 'C0229960', 'cui_str': 'Entire body as a whole'}, {'cui': 'C0015677', 'cui_str': 'Fat'}, {'cui': 'C0439165', 'cui_str': 'Percent'}, {'cui': 'C1563740', 'cui_str': 'Abdominal Visceral Fat'}, {'cui': 'C0423896', 'cui_str': 'Feeling content'}, {'cui': 'C0023216', 'cui_str': 'Lower limb structure'}, {'cui': 'C0179847', 'cui_str': 'Chair'}, {'cui': 'C0231472', 'cui_str': 'Orthostatic body position'}, {'cui': 'C0022206', 'cui_str': 'Isometric exercise'}, {'cui': 'C0022742', 'cui_str': 'Bone structure of knee'}]",451.0,0.032446,"Leg extensor power was unchanged in all groups, but strength training had a positive effect on isometric knee extensor strength in both groups, whereas an increased muscle mass, cross-sectional area of vastus lateralis muscle, a decreased whole-body fat percentage, visceral fat content and an improved mental health (SF-36) occurred in HRT only.","[{'ForeName': 'Anne Theil', 'Initials': 'AT', 'LastName': 'Gylling', 'Affiliation': 'Institute of Sports Medicine Copenhagen, Department of Orthopaedic Surgery M81 and Centre for Translational Research, Bispebjerg and Frederiksberg Hospital, Bispebjerg Bakke 23, 2400 Copenhagen, NV, Denmark; Center for Healthy Aging, Faculty of Health and Medical Sciences, University of Copenhagen, Blegdamsvej 3B, 2200 Copenhagen, N, Denmark.

457,32270133,"""When I Eat Well, I Will Be Healthy, and the Child Will Also Be Healthy"": Maternal Nutrition among HIV-Infected Women Enrolled in a Livelihood Intervention in Western Kenya.","Background
Food insecurity remains a major obstacle to achieving health and well-being for individuals living with HIV in western Kenya. Studies have shown that pregnant women are vulnerable to experiencing food insecurity worldwide, with significant consequences for both maternal and child health. The Shamba Maisha cluster randomized controlled trial in western Kenya (which means ""farming for life"" in Swahili) tested the effects of a multisectoral livelihood intervention consisting of agricultural and finance trainings, farm inputs, and a loan on health and food security among 746 farmers living with HIV in Kisumu, Homa Bay, and Migori Counties.
Objectives
We conducted a qualitative substudy within the Shamba Maisha trial to understand the experiences and perspectives of pregnant women living with HIV enrolled in the trial.
Methods
Thirty women who had experienced a pregnancy during the Shamba Maisha study period, comprising 20 women in the intervention arm and 10 women in the control arm, completed in-depth interviews using a semistructured interview guide.
Results
Intervention participants interviewed noted improvements in maternal nutrition compared with previous pregnancies, which they attributed to the livelihood intervention. Key identified pathways to improved nutrition included improved access to vegetables, increased variety of diet through vegetable sales, and improved nutritional awareness. Women in the intervention arm also perceived increased weight gain compared with prior pregnancies and increased strength and energy throughout pregnancy.
Conclusions
Livelihood interventions represent a promising solution to alleviate food insecurity for pregnant women in order to improve maternal and child health outcomes.This trial was registered at clinicaltrials.gov as NCT02815579.",2020,"Conclusions

458,31253407,Randomized Controlled Trial of Iron-Fortified versus Low-Iron Infant Formula: Developmental Outcomes at 16 Years.,"OBJECTIVES
To test differences in cognitive outcomes among adolescents randomly assigned previously as infants to iron-fortified formula or low-iron formula as part of an iron deficiency anemia prevention trial.
STUDY DESIGN
Infants were recruited from community clinics in low- to middle-income neighborhoods in Santiago, Chile. Entrance criteria included term, singleton infants; birth weight of ≥3.0 kg; and no major congenital anomalies, perinatal complications, phototherapy, hospitalization >5 days, chronic illness, or iron deficiency anemia at 6 months. Six-month-old infants were randomized to iron-fortified (12 mg/L) or low-iron (2.3 mg/L) formula for 6 months. At 16 years of age, cognitive ability, visual perceptual ability, visual memory, and achievement in math, vocabulary, and comprehension were assessed, using standardized measures. We compared differences in developmental test scores according to randomization group.
RESULTS
At the follow-up assessment, the 405 participants averaged 16.2 years of age and 46% were male. Those randomized to iron-fortified formula had lower scores than those randomized to low-iron formula for visual memory, arithmetic achievement, and reading comprehension achievement. For visual motor integration, there was an interaction with baseline infancy hemoglobin, such that the iron-fortified group outperformed the low-iron group when 6-month hemoglobin was low and underperformed when 6-month hemoglobin was high.
CONCLUSIONS
Adolescents who received iron-fortified formula as infants from 6 to 12 months of age at levels recommended in the US had poorer cognitive outcomes compared with those who received a low-iron formula. The prevention of iron deficiency anemia in infancy is important for brain development. However, the optimal level of iron supplementation in infancy is unclear.

459,32279227,Efficacy of Postbiotics in a PRP-Like Cosmetic Product for the Treatment of Alopecia Area Celsi: A Randomized Double-Blinded Parallel-Group Study.,"INTRODUCTION
Alopecia areata (AA), also known as 'area Celsi', is the second most common form of hair loss affecting the scalp. Newly proposed treatments for AA include low-level light therapy, biologics such as Janus kinase inhibitors and autologous platelet-rich plasma (PRP), which is a well-known ""elixir"" for hair growth. Bioactive peptides developed through biotechnological applications have been used to overcome the limitations of PRP. More recently, the involvement of microbiota in hair growth disorders, in AA in particular, has been reported, and the usefulness of microbial metabolites, i.e. postbiotics, has been suggested.
METHODS
This study was a randomized double-blinded parallel-group study in which 160 persons of both sexes affected by AA and aged between 18 and 60 years were enrolled. The subjects were randomly assigned to a treatment group (group 1), receiving the TR-PRP plus-Celsi cosmetic product, and a placebo group (group 2). The SALT (Severity of Alopecia Tool) score was determined in both groups at baseline and after 2 and 3 months of treatment, and the results compared between groups.
RESULTS
The subjects in group 1 showed a significant change from baseline in SALT score at 2 months of treatment (61.04% ± 3.45%; p < 0.0001), with a further improvement at the end of treatment (3 months) (69.56% ± 4.32%; p < 0.0001). No significant changes from baseline were reported for the subjects in group 2 (T1: 26.45% ± 3.64%; T3: 27.63% ± 7.61%).
CONCLUSIONS
The results of this study provide further proof of the efficacy of bioactive peptides that mimick the growth factors present in PRP in subjects affected by AA. They also add to our knowledge of the link between microbiota and hair growth disorders, emphasizing the importance of studies on the microbial community and microbial metabolites as a novel therapeutic approach.",2020,"No significant changes from baseline were reported for the subjects in group 2 (T1: 26.45% ± 3.64%; T3: 27.63% ± 7.61%).

460,32275191,IL (Interleukin)-1 Receptor Antagonist Increases Ang (Angiotensin [1-7]) and Decreases Blood Pressure in Obese Individuals.,"IL (Interleukin)-1 antagonism decreases blood pressure in obese individuals. The underlying mechanisms are unknown. Based on experimental data, we hypothesized an effect of IL-1 antagonism via modulation of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system. In this explorative study, we examined shorter- (2 days) and longer-term effects (4 weeks) of IL-1 antagonism (anakinra/Kineret) on renin-angiotensin system peptide profiles and on hemodynamic parameters assessed by noninvasive measurement in obese (body mass index ≥30 kg/m 2 ) individuals from 2 interventional trials (a prospective interventional trial [n=73] and a placebo controlled-double blinded interventional trial [n=67]). A total of 140 patients were included. Systolic blood pressure decreased after short-term (absolute difference -5.2 mm Hg [95% CI, -8.5 to -1.8]; P =0.0006) and after longer-term treatment with anakinra (absolute difference -3.9 mm Hg [95% CI, -7.59 to -0.21]; P =0.04), with no change in blood pressure in the placebo group. Upon IL-1 antagonism, equilibrium levels of Ang II (angiotensin II), Ang I, aldosterone, and renin remained unchanged. In contrast, Ang (1-7) peptide levels increased after 4 weeks (between-group difference 16.35 pmol/L [95% CI, 1.22-30.17], P =0.03), as well as the Ang (1-7)/Ang II ratio (between-group difference 0.42 [95% CI, 0.17-0.67], P =0.02) in comparison to placebo. Consistently, the stroke systemic vascular resistance index significantly decreased in the anakinra group (between-group difference of -62.65 dyn/sec per cm -5 per m 2 [95% CI, -116.94 to -18.36], P =0.008, consistent with a 25% decrease). IL-1 antagonism increased the vasodilatory Ang (1-7) peptide after 4 weeks of treatment in obese individuals, paralleled by a decrease in peripheral vascular resistance. These findings point to an IL-1 mediated blood pressure-lowering mechanism via modulation of Ang (1-7). Registration- URL: https://www.clinicaltrials.gov.

461,30583852,Neural Indicators of Anhedonia: Predictors and Mechanisms of Treatment Change in a Randomized Clinical Trial in Early Childhood Depression.,"BACKGROUND
Early childhood depression is associated with anhedonia and reduced event-related potential (ERP) responses to rewarding or pleasant stimuli. Whether these neural measures are indicators of target engagement or treatment outcome is not yet known.
METHODS
We measured ERP responses to win and loss feedback in a guessing task and to pleasant versus neutral pictures in young (4.0-6.9 years of age) depressed children before and after randomization to either 18 weeks of Parent-Child Interaction Therapy-Emotion Development (PCIT-ED) treatment or waitlist (WL) control condition.
RESULTS
Analyses included reward positivity (RewP) data from 118 children randomized to PCIT-ED treatment (n = 60) or WL control condition (n = 58) at baseline and late positive potential (LPP) data from 99 children (44 PCIT-ED treatment vs. 55 WL control condition) at baseline. Children in the PCIT-ED group showed a greater reduction in anhedonia (F 1,103 = 10.32, p = .002, partial η 2 = .09). RewP reward responses increased more (F 1,87 = 5.45, p = .02, partial η 2 = .06) for PCIT-ED and a greater change in RewP was associated with a greater reduction in major depressive disorder symptoms (r = -.24, p = .05). Baseline RewP did not predict treatment change. LPPs to positive pictures did not change across treatment, but greater baseline LPPs to positive pictures predicted a higher likelihood of remission from major depressive disorder in the PCIT-ED group (B = 0.14; SE = 0.07; odds ratio = 1.15; p = .03).
CONCLUSIONS
The ERP reward response improved in young children with depression during a treatment designed to enhance emotion development, providing evidence of target engagement of the neural systems associated with reward. Further, greater baseline LPP responses to positive pictures were associated with a greater reduction in depression, suggesting that this ERP measure can predict which children are most likely to respond to treatment.",2019,"RewP reward responses increased more (F 1,87 = 5.45, p = .02, partial η 2 = .06) for PCIT-ED and a greater change in RewP was associated with a greater reduction in major depressive disorder symptoms (r = -.24, p = .05).","['Early Childhood Depression', 'in young (4.0-6.9 years of age) depressed children before and after randomization to either 18 weeks of']","['Parent-Child Interaction Therapy-Emotion Development (PCIT-ED) treatment or waitlist (WL) control condition', 'guessing task and to pleasant versus neutral pictures']","['RewP reward responses', 'ERP responses', 'major depressive disorder symptoms', 'anhedonia', 'ERP reward response']","[{'cui': 'C0599196', 'cui_str': 'Early childhood'}, {'cui': 'C0011581', 'cui_str': 'Neurosis, Depressive'}, {'cui': 'C0332239', 'cui_str': 'Young (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C4517826', 'cui_str': 'Six point nine'}, {'cui': 'C0439234', 'cui_str': 'year (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0001792', 'cui_str': 'Elderly'}, {'cui': 'C0344315', 'cui_str': 'Depressed'}, {'cui': 'C0008059', 'cui_str': 'Child'}, {'cui': 'C0034656', 'cui_str': 'Randomization'}, {'cui': 'C0439230', 'cui_str': 'week (qualifier value)'}]","[{'cui': 'C0085092', 'cui_str': 'Parenting'}, {'cui': 'C0008059', 'cui_str': 'Child'}, {'cui': 'C0687133', 'cui_str': 'Drug Interactions'}, {'cui': 'C0087111', 'cui_str': 'Therapy'}, {'cui': 'C0013987', 'cui_str': 'Emotions'}, {'cui': 'C0243107', 'cui_str': 'development'}, {'cui': 'C2587213', 'cui_str': 'Controlled (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0348080', 'cui_str': 'Condition (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0441469', 'cui_str': 'Picture (physical object)'}]","[{'cui': 'C0035397', 'cui_str': 'Rewards'}, {'cui': 'C0337380', 'cui_str': 'Endoscopic retrograde pancreatography (procedure)'}, {'cui': 'C1269683', 'cui_str': 'Major Depressive Disorder'}, {'cui': 'C0683368', 'cui_str': 'symptoms'}, {'cui': 'C0178417', 'cui_str': 'Anhedonia'}]",118.0,0.226379,"RewP reward responses increased more (F 1,87 = 5.45, p = .02, partial η 2 = .06) for PCIT-ED and a greater change in RewP was associated with a greater reduction in major depressive disorder symptoms (r = -.24, p = .05).","[{'ForeName': 'Deanna M', 'Initials': 'DM', 'LastName': 'Barch', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Psychological & Brain Sciences, Washington University in St. Louis, St. Louis, Missouri; Department of Psychiatry, Washington University in St. Louis, St. Louis, Missouri; Department of Radiology, Washington University in St. Louis, St. Louis, Missouri.

462,30088663,Clinical Pharmacology of the Reversible and Potent P2Y 12 Receptor Antagonist ACT-246475 After Single Subcutaneous Administration in Healthy Male Subjects.,"ACT-246475 is a selective and reversible P2Y 12 receptor antagonist inducing inhibition of platelet aggregation (IPA). A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-design study was performed to investigate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of escalating single subcutaneous doses of ACT-246475 (1, 2, 4, 8, 16, or 32 mg) in healthy male subjects (N = 8 per dose, 3:1 active:placebo ratio). Pharmacodynamic effects were assessed based on maximum platelet aggregation and P2Y 12 reaction units using light transmission aggregometry and VerifyNow ® assays, respectively. ACT-246475 was safe and well tolerated up to 32 mg based on adverse event data and absence of clinically relevant changes in hematology, biochemistry, vital signs, and electrocardiogram variables. Median time to reach maximum plasma concentration was 0.5-0.75 hours, and geometric mean terminal half-life ranged from 1.3 to 9.2 hours across the tested dose range. Exposure to ACT-246475 was dose proportional across all dose groups. The maximal %IPA was reached within 30 minutes after subcutaneous administration of ACT-246475. A dose-dependent duration and extent of effect were observed based on area under the effect curve and maximum effect data.

463,30850461,A Randomized Trial to Train Vulnerable Primary Care Patients to Use a Patient Portal.,"BACKGROUND
Patient portals are becoming ubiquitous. Previous research has documented substantial barriers, especially among vulnerable patient subgroups such as those with lower socioeconomic status or limited health literacy (LHL). We tested the effectiveness of delivering online, video-based portal training to patients in a safety net setting.
METHODS
We created an online video curriculum about accessing the San Francisco Health Network portal, and then randomized 93 English-speaking patients with 1+ chronic diseases to receive 1) an in-person tutorial with a research assistant, or 2) a link to view the videos on their own. We also examined a third, nonrandomized usual care comparison group. The primary outcome was portal log-in (yes/no) 3 to 6 months post-training, assessed via the electronic health record. Secondary outcomes were self-reported attitudes and skills collected via baseline and follow-up surveys.
RESULTS
Mean age was 54 years, 51% had LHL, 60% were nonwhite, 52% were female, 45% reported fair/poor health, and 76% reported daily Internet use. At followup, 21% logged into the portal, with no differences by arm ( P = .41), but this was higher than the overall clinic rate of 9% ( P < .01) during the same time period. We found significant prepost improvements in self-rated portal skills ( P = .03) and eHealth literacy ( P < .01). Those with LHL were less likely to log in post-training ( P < .01).
CONCLUSIONS
Both modalities of online training were comparable, and neither mode enabled a majority of vulnerable patients to use portals, especially those with LHL. This suggests that portal training will need to be more intensive or portals need improved usability to meaningfully increase use among diverse patients.",2019,We found significant prepost improvements in self-rated portal skills ( P = .03) and eHealth literacy ( P < .01).,"['Mean age was 54 years, 51% had LHL, 60% were nonwhite, 52% were female, 45% reported fair/poor health, and 76% reported daily Internet use', '93 English-speaking patients with 1+ chronic diseases to receive 1) an in-person tutorial with a research assistant, or 2', 'Train Vulnerable Primary Care Patients to Use a Patient Portal']","['online training', 'delivering online, video-based portal training']","['eHealth literacy', 'overall clinic rate', 'portal log-in (yes/no) 3 to 6 months post-training, assessed via the electronic health record', 'self-rated portal skills', 'self-reported attitudes and skills collected via baseline and follow-up surveys']","[{'cui': 'C0444504', 'cui_str': 'Mean (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0001792', 'cui_str': 'Elderly'}, {'cui': 'C0439234', 'cui_str': 'year (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0086287', 'cui_str': 'Females'}, {'cui': 'C0684224', 'cui_str': 'Report'}, {'cui': 'C2911689', 'cui_str': 'Fair'}, {'cui': 'C0542537', 'cui_str': 'Poor - grade'}, {'cui': 'C0018684', 'cui_str': 'Health'}, {'cui': 'C0332173', 'cui_str': 'Daily (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0282111', 'cui_str': 'World Wide Web'}, {'cui': 'C1947944', 'cui_str': 'Use'}, {'cui': 'C3540738', 'cui_str': 'English [International Organization for Standardization 639-1 code en] language reference set (foundation metadata concept)'}, {'cui': 'C0234856', 'cui_str': 'Using spoken communication'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C0008679', 'cui_str': 'Chronic Illness'}, {'cui': 'C0027361', 'cui_str': 'Persons'}, {'cui': 'C0035168'}, {'cui': 'C0336809', 'cui_str': 'Railway train, device (physical object)'}, {'cui': 'C0033137', 'cui_str': 'Primary Care'}, {'cui': 'C4277550', 'cui_str': 'Patient Internet Portals'}]","[{'cui': 'C0220931', 'cui_str': 'Functional training'}, {'cui': 'C0042655', 'cui_str': 'Videotapes'}, {'cui': 'C0178499', 'cui_str': 'Base'}, {'cui': 'C0205054', 'cui_str': 'Portal (qualifier value)'}]","[{'cui': 'C1328956', 'cui_str': 'eHealth'}, {'cui': 'C0023864', 'cui_str': 'Literacy'}, {'cui': 'C0282416', 'cui_str': 'Overall'}, {'cui': 'C0442592', 'cui_str': 'Clinic (environment)'}, {'cui': 'C0205054', 'cui_str': 'Portal (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C1298907', 'cui_str': 'Yes'}, {'cui': 'C0439231', 'cui_str': 'month (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0687676', 'cui_str': 'After values (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0220931', 'cui_str': 'Functional training'}, {'cui': 'C2362543', 'cui_str': 'Electronic Medical Record'}, {'cui': 'C0036588', 'cui_str': 'Self'}, {'cui': 'C2700446', 'cui_str': 'Self-reported (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0004271', 'cui_str': 'Attitude'}, {'cui': 'C0589120', 'cui_str': 'Follow-up'}, {'cui': 'C0038951', 'cui_str': 'Surveys'}]",93.0,0.0789835,We found significant prepost improvements in self-rated portal skills ( P = .03) and eHealth literacy ( P < .01).,"[{'ForeName': 'Courtney R', 'Initials': 'CR', 'LastName': 'Lyles', 'Affiliation': 'From the Center for Vulnerable Populations (CRL, LT, US, MH, NR, DS), Division of General Internal Medicine (CRL, LT, US, MH, NR, DS), UCSF Division of Hospital Medicine (SS), Zuckerberg San Francisco General Hospital Library (SK), University of California-San Francisco, San Francisco, CA;

464,32277344,Comparable Effect of Two-Step Versus Extended Infusions on the Pharmacokinetics of Imipenem in Patients with Sepsis and Septic Shock.,"INTRODUCTION
The present study aimed to compare the pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) parameters of imipenem administered by two-step (50% delivered in a 30-min bolus, 50% for the following 90 min) or extended (administered continuously for 2 h) infusion.
METHODS
Patients with sepsis and septic shock were prospectively enrolled and randomized into four groups. Subjects in the two-step or extended groups were given two doses of imipenem (0.5 g q6h and 1.0 g q8h). The plasma imipenem concentrations were measured at given time points after the fifth dose. The PK/PD target was defined as the achievement of a fractional time above the minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) of > 40%.
RESULTS
Thirty-five patients were eventually enrolled. No significant difference was observed in the percentage of patients achieving 40% T > MIC between the different infusion modes with the same dosage, although the two-step groups exhibited a significantly shorter T max compared with the extended groups (0.5 g q6h: 1.5 ± 0.8 vs. 2.0 ± 0.0 h; 1.0 g q8h: 1.0 ± 0.6 vs. 2.0 ± 0.0 h; both, p < 0.05). All four groups achieved 40% T > MIC when MIC was 0.5-4.0 μg/ml, but only regimens with a higher dose (1.0 g q8h) achieved target when MIC was 8 μg/ml.
CONCLUSION
The two-step and extended regimens of imipenem are comparable to the PK/PD target in the treatment of sepsis and septic shock. A higher dose (1.0 g q8h) should be considered for target achievement at an MIC of > 8 μg/ml.

465,32247311,Community initiated kangaroo mother care and early child development in low birth weight infants in India-a randomized controlled trial.,"BACKGROUND
In a randomized controlled trial (RCT) with 8402 stable low birthweight (LBW) infants, majority being late preterm or term small for gestational age, community-initiated KMC (ciKMC) showed a significant improvement in survival. However, the effect of ciKMC on neurodevelopment is unclear. This is important to elucidate as children born with low birth weight are at high risk of neurodevelopmental deficits. In the first 552 stable LBW infants enrolled in the above trial, we evaluated the effect of ciKMC on neurodevelopmental outcomes during infancy.
METHOD
This RCT was conducted among 552 stable LBW infants, majorly late preterm or term small for gestational age infants without any problems at birth and weighing 1500-2250 g at birth. The intervention comprised of promotion of skin-to-skin contact and exclusive breastfeeding by trained intervention delivery team through home visits. The intervention group mother-infant-dyads were supported to practice ciKMC till day 28 after birth or until the baby wriggled-out. All infants in the intervention and control groups received Home Based Post Natal Care (HBPNC) visits by government health workers. Cognitive, language, motor and socio-emotional outcomes were assessed at infant-ages 6- and 12-months using Bayley Scale of Infant Development (BSID-III). Other outcomes measured were infant temperament, maternal depression, maternal sense of competence, mother-infant bonding and home-environment. We performed post-hoc equivalence testing using two one-sided tests of equivalence (TOST) to provide evidence that ciKMC does not do harm in terms of neurodevelopment.
RESULTS
In the intervention arm, the median (IQR) time to initiate ciKMC was 48 (48 to 72) hours after birth. The mean (SD) duration of skin-to-skin-contact was 27.9 (3.9) days with a mean (SD) of 8.7 (3.5) hours per day. We did not find significant effect of ciKMC on any of the child developmental outcomes during infancy. The TOST analysis demonstrated that composite scores for cognitive, language and motor domains at 12 months among the study arms were statistically equivalent.
CONCLUSION
Our study was unable to capture any effect of ciKMC on neurodevelopment during infancy in this sample of stable late preterm or term small for gestational age infants. Long term follow-up may provide meaningful insights.

466,32277388,Comparative Study to Evaluate Tolerability of Topical 5% Minoxidil Novel Formulation and Alcohol-Based Conventional Solutions in Treatment of Androgenetic Alopecia in Indian Men: Randomized Double-Blind Study.,"INTRODUCTION
Patients with androgenetic alopecia treated with alcohol-based minoxidil topical solutions often report local irritation, dryness, and redness of the scalp. We evaluate the in-use tolerance of 5% minoxidil novel formulation topical solution-test product (TP)-compared with 5% minoxidil alcohol-based topical solutions-reference product 1 (RP1) and reference product 2 (RP2)-in Indian men with androgenetic alopecia.
METHODS
In this randomized double-blind study, patients aged ≥ 18 years with androgenetic alopecia were randomized 1:1:1 to apply TP, RP1, and RP2 twice daily for 30 days. The safety endpoints included mean hydration, mean redness, and mean scaling on scalp.
RESULTS
All screened patients (N = 100) were enrolled and randomized to TP (n = 33), RP1 (n = 33), or RP2 (n = 34). At day 30, the mean (SD) hydration was significantly increased in patients treated with TP [9.74 (4.98)] but significantly reduced in patients treated with RP1 [3.28 (2.67)] or RP2 [3.03 (1.57)] (p-value 0.001). The mean (SD) score for redness was significantly decreased in the TP group [0.01 (0.04)], (p-value, 0.009) at day 30 compared with baseline, while no change was observed in the RP1 [0.08 (0.13)] or RP2 [0.11 (0.17)] group. After 30 days of treatment, no significant difference was observed in the mean score of scaling in any of the three groups.
CONCLUSIONS
Twice daily application of 5% minoxidil novel formulation for 30 days significantly improved hydration and reduced redness of the scalp. Hence, 5% minoxidil novel formulation could be a safer alternative in treating men with androgenetic alopecia who are sensitive to alcoholic formulations.

468,32107773,Home fortification of foods with multiple micronutrient powders for health and nutrition in children under two years of age.,"BACKGROUND
Vitamin and mineral deficiencies, particularly those of iron, vitamin A, and zinc, affect more than two billion people worldwide. Young children are highly vulnerable because of rapid growth and inadequate dietary practices. Multiple micronutrient powders (MNPs) are single-dose packets containing multiple vitamins and minerals in powder form, which are mixed into any semi-solid food for children six months of age or older. The use of MNPs for home or point-of-use fortification of complementary foods has been proposed as an intervention for improving micronutrient intake in children under two years of age. In 2014, MNP interventions were implemented in 43 countries and reached over three million children. This review updates a previous Cochrane Review, which has become out-of-date.
OBJECTIVES
To assess the effects and safety of home (point-of-use) fortification of foods with MNPs on nutrition, health, and developmental outcomes in children under two years of age. For the purposes of this review, home fortification with MNP refers to the addition of powders containing vitamins and minerals to semi-solid foods immediately before consumption. This can be done at home or at any other place that meals are consumed (e.g. schools, refugee camps). For this reason, MNPs are also referred to as point-of-use fortification.
SEARCH METHODS
We searched the following databases up to July 2019: CENTRAL, MEDLINE, Embase, and eight other databases. We also searched four trials registers, contacted relevant organisations and authors of included studies to identify any ongoing or unpublished studies, and searched the reference lists of included studies.
SELECTION CRITERIA
We included randomised controlled trials (RCTs) and quasi-RCTs with individual randomisation or cluster-randomisation. Participants were infants and young children aged 6 to 23 months at the time of intervention, with no identified specific health problems. The intervention consisted of consumption of food fortified at the point of use with MNP formulated with at least iron, zinc, and vitamin A, compared with placebo, no intervention, or use of iron-containing supplements, which is standard practice.
DATA COLLECTION AND ANALYSIS
Two review authors independently assessed the eligibility of studies against the inclusion criteria, extracted data from included studies, and assessed the risk of bias of included studies. We reported categorical outcomes as risk ratios (RRs) or odds ratios (ORs), with 95% confidence intervals (CIs), and continuous outcomes as mean differences (MDs) and 95% CIs. We used the GRADE approach to assess the certainty of evidence.
MAIN RESULTS
We included 29 studies (33,147 children) conducted in low- and middle-income countries in Asia, Africa, Latin America, and the Caribbean, where anaemia is a public health problem. Twenty-six studies with 27,051 children contributed data. The interventions lasted between 2 and 44 months, and the powder formulations contained between 5 and 22 nutrients. Among the 26 studies contributing data, 24 studies (26,486 children) compared the use of MNP versus no intervention or placebo; the two remaining studies compared the use of MNP versus an iron-only supplement (iron drops) given daily. The main outcomes of interest were related to anaemia and iron status. We assessed most of the included studies at low risk of selection and attrition bias. We considered some studies to be at high risk of performance and detection bias due to lack of blinding. Most studies were funded by government programmes or foundations; only two were funded by industry. Home fortification with MNP, compared with no intervention or placebo, reduced the risk of anaemia in infants and young children by 18% (RR 0.82, 95% CI 0.76 to 0.90; 16 studies; 9927 children; moderate-certainty evidence) and iron deficiency by 53% (RR 0.47, 95% CI 0.39 to 0.56; 7 studies; 1634 children; high-certainty evidence). Children receiving MNP had higher haemoglobin concentrations (MD 2.74 g/L, 95% CI 1.95 to 3.53; 20 studies; 10,509 children; low-certainty evidence) and higher iron status (MD 12.93 μg/L, 95% CI 7.41 to 18.45; 7 studies; 2612 children; moderate-certainty evidence) at follow-up compared with children receiving the control intervention. We did not find an effect on weight-for-age (MD 0.02, 95% CI -0.03 to 0.07; 10 studies; 9287 children; moderate-certainty evidence). Few studies reported morbidity outcomes (three to five studies each outcome) and definitions varied, but MNP did not increase diarrhoea, upper respiratory infection, malaria, or all-cause morbidity. In comparison with daily iron supplementation, the use of MNP produced similar results for anaemia (RR 0.89, 95% CI 0.58 to 1.39; 1 study; 145 children; low-certainty evidence) and haemoglobin concentrations (MD -2.81 g/L, 95% CI -10.84 to 5.22; 2 studies; 278 children; very low-certainty evidence) but less diarrhoea (RR 0.52, 95% CI 0.38 to 0.72; 1 study; 262 children; low-certainty of evidence). However, given the limited quantity of data, these results should be interpreted cautiously. Reporting of death was infrequent, although no trials reported deaths attributable to the intervention. Information on side effects and morbidity, including malaria and diarrhoea, was scarce. It appears that use of MNP is efficacious among infants and young children aged 6 to 23 months who are living in settings with different prevalences of anaemia and malaria endemicity, regardless of intervention duration. MNP intake adherence was variable and in some cases comparable to that achieved in infants and young children receiving standard iron supplements as drops or syrups.
AUTHORS' CONCLUSIONS
Home fortification of foods with MNP is an effective intervention for reducing anaemia and iron deficiency in children younger than two years of age. Providing MNP is better than providing no intervention or placebo and may be comparable to using daily iron supplementation. The benefits of this intervention as a child survival strategy or for developmental outcomes are unclear. Further investigation of morbidity outcomes, including malaria and diarrhoea, is needed.

469,31652094,Randomized Trial of Lenalidomide Versus Observation in Smoldering Multiple Myeloma.,"PURPOSE
Observation is the current standard of care for smoldering multiple myeloma. We hypothesized that early intervention with lenalidomide could delay progression to symptomatic multiple myeloma.
METHODS
We conducted a randomized trial that assessed the efficacy of single-agent lenalidomide compared with observation in patients with intermediate- or high-risk smoldering multiple myeloma. Lenalidomide was administered orally at a dose of 25 mg on days 1 to 21 of a 28-day cycle. The primary end point was progression-free survival, with disease progression requiring the development of end-organ damage attributable to multiple myeloma and biochemical progression.
RESULTS
One hundred eighty-two patients were randomly assigned-92 patients to the lenalidomide arm and 90 to the observation arm. Median follow-up is 35 months. Response to therapy was observed in 50% (95% CI, 39% to 61%) of patients in the lenalidomide arm, with no responses in the observation arm. Progression-free survival was significantly longer with lenalidomide compared with observation (hazard ratio, 0.28; 95% CI, 0.12 to 0.62; P = .002). One-, 2-, and 3-year progression-free survival was 98%, 93%, and 91% for the lenalidomide arm versus 89%, 76%, and 66% for the observation arm, respectively. Only six deaths have been reported, two in the lenalidomide arm versus four in the observation arm (hazard ratio for death, 0.46; 95% CI, 0.08 to 2.53). Grade 3 or 4 nonhematologic adverse events occurred in 25 patients (28%) on lenalidomide.

470,31466614,Effects of Alirocumab on Cardiovascular Events After Coronary Bypass Surgery.,"BACKGROUND
Patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and history of coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) are at high risk for recurrent cardiovascular events and death.
OBJECTIVES
This study sought to determine the clinical benefit of adding alirocumab to statins in ACS patients with prior CABG in a pre-specified analysis of ODYSSEY OUTCOMES (Evaluation of Cardiovascular Outcomes After an Acute Coronary Syndrome During Treatment With Alirocumab).
METHODS
Patients (n = 18,924) 1 to 12 months post-ACS with elevated atherogenic lipoprotein levels despite high-intensity statin therapy were randomized to alirocumab or placebo subcutaneously every 2 weeks. Median follow-up was 2.8 years. The primary composite endpoint of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) comprised coronary heart disease death, nonfatal myocardial infarction, ischemic stroke, or unstable angina requiring hospitalization. All-cause death was a secondary endpoint. Patients were categorized by CABG status: no CABG (n = 16,896); index CABG after qualifying ACS, but before randomization (n = 1,025); or CABG before the qualifying ACS (n = 1,003).
RESULTS
In each CABG category, hazard ratios (95% confidence intervals) for MACE (no CABG 0.86 [0.78 to 0.95], index CABG 0.85 [0.54 to 1.35], prior CABG 0.77 [0.61 to 0.98]) and death (0.88 [0.75 to 1.03], 0.85 [0.46 to 1.59], 0.67 [0.44 to 1.01], respectively) were consistent with the overall trial results (0.85 [0.78 to 0.93] and 0.85 [0.73 to 0.98], respectively). Absolute risk reductions (95% confidence intervals) differed across CABG categories for MACE (no CABG 1.3% [0.5% to 2.2%], index CABG 0.9% [-2.3% to 4.0%], prior CABG 6.4% [0.9% to 12.0%]) and for death (0.4% [-0.1% to 1.0%], 0.5% [-1.9% to 2.9%], and 3.6% [0.0% to 7.2%]).
CONCLUSIONS
Among patients with recent ACS and elevated atherogenic lipoproteins despite intensive statin therapy, alirocumab was associated with large absolute reductions in MACE and death in those with CABG preceding the ACS event.

471,32252167,Effect of the Presence and Type of Plate Augmentation on Postoperative Dysphagia Among Adult Patients Undergoing Elective Anterior Cervical Discectomy and Fusion for Spondylosis: A Randomized Trial.,"OBJECTIVE
To determine the effect of anterior plating on postoperative dysphagia (POD) among adult patients undergoing elective anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF) for cervical spondylosis and determine the potential role of demographic and clinical characteristics in the development of POD.
METHODS
Consecutive adults undergoing an elective, single-level, ACDF were randomly assigned to receive a stand-alone CoRoent Cage or a CoRoent Cage with a Helix, or HelixMini plate. Patients with a history of cervical spine surgery were excluded. M. D. Anderson Dysphagia Inventory and Bazaz questionnaires were completed at regular intervals for 12 months postoperatively.
RESULTS
Twenty-five patients were recruited over a 2-year period, with 8 allocated to receive a stand-alone cage, 5 to receive a cage and Helix Mini plate, and 12 to receive a cage and Helix plate. The POD rate was 68% at 48 hours, before falling to 16% at 6 and 12 months. A longer retraction time was observed in the Helix plate group compared to the stand-alone cage group (7.88; 95% confidence interval, 0.12-15.63; p = 0.046), although there was no difference in the incidence or severity of dysphagia between cohorts at any timepoint. With the exception of body mass index, there was no difference in patients with and without dysphagia, and each of the interventions was equally efficacious with respect to clinical and radiological endpoints.
CONCLUSION
Dysphagia is a common consequence of ACDF and, while the placement of a large plate results in longer retraction time, it was not associated with higher rates of dysphagia.

472,32001481,FDA Approval Summary: Atezolizumab Plus Paclitaxel Protein-bound for the Treatment of Patients with Advanced or Metastatic TNBC Whose Tumors Express PD-L1.,"On March 8, 2019, the FDA granted accelerated approval to atezolizumab in combination with paclitaxel protein-bound for the treatment of adult patients with unresectable locally advanced or metastatic triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) whose tumors express PD-L1 [PD-L1 stained tumor-infiltrating immune cells (IC) of any intensity covering ≥1% of the tumor area], as determined by an FDA-approved test. Approval was based on data from IMpassion130, which randomized patients to receive atezolizumab or placebo in combination with paclitaxel protein-bound. Investigator-assessed progression-free survival (PFS) in the intent-to-treat (ITT) and PD-L1-positive populations were coprimary endpoints. After 13-month median follow-up, the estimated median PFS in the PD-L1-positive population was 7.4 months in the atezolizumab arm and 4.8 months in the placebo arm [HR = 0.60; 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.48-0.77]. Overall survival (OS) results were immature with 43% deaths in the ITT population, representing 59% of the OS events required to perform the final OS analysis. Adverse reactions occurring in ≥20% of patients receiving atezolizumab with paclitaxel protein-bound were alopecia, peripheral neuropathies, fatigue, nausea, diarrhea, anemia, constipation, cough, headache, neutropenia, vomiting, and decreased appetite. Accelerated approval was appropriate taking into account the unmet medical need along with the immaturity of the OS results and potential for PFS in the PD-L1-expressing population to predict clinical

473,31136202,Heat therapy improves glucose tolerance and adipose tissue insulin signaling in polycystic ovary syndrome.,"Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is associated with high rates of obesity and metabolic dysfunction. Repeated passive heat exposure (termed heat therapy) is a novel lifestyle intervention for improving health in obese women with PCOS. The purpose of this study was to examine changes in metabolic function in obese women with PCOS following heat therapy. Eighteen age- and BMI-matched obese women with PCOS (age: 27 ± 1 yr, BMI: 41.3 ± 1.1 kg/m -2 ) were assigned to heat therapy (HT) or time control (CON). HT participants underwent 30 one-hour hot tub sessions over 8-10 wk, while CON participants completed all testing but did not undergo heat therapy. Before (Pre), at the mid-point (Mid), and following (Post) 8-10 wk of heat therapy, metabolic health was assessed using a 2-h oral glucose tolerance test, a subcutaneous abdominal fat biopsy (Pre-Post only), and other blood markers relating to metabolic function. HT participants exhibited improved fasting glucose (Pre: 105 ± 3, Post: 89 ± 5mg/dl; P = 0.001), glucose area under the curve (AUC) (Pre: 18,698 ± 1,045, Post: 16,987 ± 1,017 mg·dl -1 ·min -1 ; P = 0.028) and insulin AUC (Pre: 126,924 ± 11,730, Post: 91,233 ± 14,429 IU l -1 ·min -1 ; P = 0.012). Adipocyte insulin signaling (p-AKT at Ser-473 with 1.2 nM insulin) increased in HT (Pre: 0.29 ± 0.14, Post: 0.93 ± 0.29 AU; P = 0.021). Additionally, serum testosterone declined in HT participants (Pre: 51 ± 7, Post: 34 ± 4 ng/dl; P = 0.033). No parameters changed over time in CON, and no change in BMI was observed in either group.

474,32273054,Trends in Treatment for Patients Hospitalized with Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction Before and After Treatment of Preserved Cardiac Function Heart Failure With an Aldosterone Antagonist (TOPCAT).,"The TOPCAT trial investigated spironolactone vs placebo in patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). Although the primary endpoint was not statistically significant, treatment with spironolactone did reduce heart failure hospitalizations compared with placebo. TOPCAT's impact on prescribing patterns in the United States is not well-characterized. We performed a retrospective analysis of discharge prescribing data in the Get With The Guidelines-Heart Failure Registry among patients with left ventricular ejection fraction ≥50% discharged between January 2009 and December 2016 to assess prescribing trends upon dissemination of TOPCAT results. Of 142,201 patients included in the study, 18,581 (13.1%) were prescribed mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists (MRAs) at discharge. Compared with those not prescribed MRAs, patients discharged on MRAs were generally younger (75 vs 78 years), and report white race (76.7% vs 72.0%), more likely to have had prior heart failure hospitalizations (75.5% vs 65.7%), lower brain natriuretic peptide levels (492 vs 545 pg/mL), but similar serum creatinine levels (1.2 vs 1.2 mg/dL) upon admission. MRA prescribing modestly increased over time (p <0.0001), without significant change in the overall trend of prescribing rate for MRAs after TOPCAT results were presented (p =0.17). In conclusion, our findings suggest that for patients with HFpEF, the use of MRAs at hospital discharge is low, with only modest increases over time and no discernible change in the rate of MRA use after the TOPCAT results were released. There remains an important need for more clinical trials to better establish the efficacy and safety of MRAs for the treatment of HFpEF.",2020,"MRA prescribing modestly increased over time (p <0.0001), without significant change in the overall trend of prescribing rate for MRAs after TOPCAT results were presented (p =0.17).","['Patients Hospitalized with Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction Before and After Treatment of Preserved Cardiac Function Heart Failure With an', 'patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF', 'patients with left ventricular ejection fraction', 'Of 142,201 patients included in the study, 18,581 (13.1%) were prescribed mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists (MRAs) at discharge']","['Aldosterone Antagonist (TOPCAT', 'placebo', 'spironolactone', 'spironolactone vs placebo']","['prescribing rate for MRAs', 'serum creatinine levels', 'heart failure hospitalizations', 'lower brain natriuretic peptide levels']","[{'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patient'}, {'cui': 'C0701159', 'cui_str': 'Patient in hospital'}, {'cui': 'C2960127', 'cui_str': 'Heart failure with normal ejection fraction'}, {'cui': 'C0001758', 'cui_str': 'Aftercare'}, {'cui': 'C0033085', 'cui_str': 'Preservation, Biologic'}, {'cui': 'C0232164', 'cui_str': 'Cardiac function'}, {'cui': 'C0018801', 'cui_str': 'Heart failure'}, {'cui': 'C0428772', 'cui_str': 'Left ventricular ejection fraction'}, {'cui': 'C0332257', 'cui_str': 'Including'}, {'cui': 'C0008972', 'cui_str': 'Clinical Study'}, {'cui': 'C2239117', 'cui_str': 'Prescription of drug'}, {'cui': 'C1579268', 'cui_str': 'Mineralocorticoid Antagonists'}, {'cui': 'C3871203', 'cui_str': 'At discharge'}]","[{'cui': 'C0002007', 'cui_str': 'Aldosterone receptor antagonist-containing product'}, {'cui': 'C0032042', 'cui_str': 'Sham Treatment'}, {'cui': 'C0037982', 'cui_str': 'Spironolactone'}]","[{'cui': 'C2239117', 'cui_str': 'Prescription of drug'}, {'cui': 'C1579268', 'cui_str': 'Mineralocorticoid Antagonists'}, {'cui': 'C0201976', 'cui_str': 'Creatinine measurement, serum'}, {'cui': 'C0018801', 'cui_str': 'Heart failure'}, {'cui': 'C0019993', 'cui_str': 'Inpatient care'}, {'cui': 'C0205251', 'cui_str': 'Low'}, {'cui': 'C1095989', 'cui_str': 'Brain natriuretic peptide measurement'}]",142201.0,0.103052,"MRA prescribing modestly increased over time (p <0.0001), without significant change in the overall trend of prescribing rate for MRAs after TOPCAT results were presented (p =0.17).","[{'ForeName': 'Marat', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Fudim', 'Affiliation': 'Duke University Medical Center, Durham, North Carolina.'}, {'ForeName': 'Jacob P', 'Initials': 'JP', 'LastName': 'Kelly', 'Affiliation': 'Duke University Medical Center, Durham, North Carolina.'}, {'ForeName': 'Todd J', 'Initials': 'TJ', 'LastName': 'Brophy', 'Affiliation': 'Duke University Medical Center, Durham, North Carolina.'}, {'ForeName': 'Adam D', 'Initials': 'AD', 'LastName': 'DeVore', 'Affiliation': 'Duke University Medical Center, Durham, North Carolina; Duke Clinical Research Institute and Duke University Medical Center, Durham, North Carolina.'}, {'ForeName': 'Bradley G', 'Initials': 'BG', 'LastName': 'Hammill', 'Affiliation': 'Duke Clinical Research Institute and Duke University Medical Center, Durham, North Carolina.'}, {'ForeName': 'Eric D', 'Initials': 'ED', 'LastName': 'Peterson', 'Affiliation': 'Duke University Medical Center, Durham, North Carolina; Duke Clinical Research Institute and Duke University Medical Center, Durham, North Carolina.'}, {'ForeName': 'Bertram', 'Initials': 'B', 'LastName': 'Pitt', 'Affiliation': 'University of Michigan Medical School, Ann Arbor, Michigan.'}, {'ForeName': 'Clyde', 'Initials': 'C', 'LastName': 'Yancy', 'Affiliation': 'Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine, Chicago, Illinois.'}, {'ForeName': 'Gregg C', 'Initials': 'GC', 'LastName': 'Fonarow', 'Affiliation': 'Ahmanson-UCLA Cardiomyopathy Center, University of California Los Angeles Medical Center, Los Angeles, California.'}, {'ForeName': 'Adrian F', 'Initials': 'AF', 'LastName': 'Hernandez', 'Affiliation': 'Duke University Medical Center, Durham, North Carolina; Duke Clinical Research Institute and Duke University Medical Center, Durham, North Carolina.

475,32272287,Short interval or continuous training programs to improve walking distance for intermittent claudication: Pilot study.,"OBJECTIVE
Supervised exercise training is part of first-line therapies for intermittent claudication. Short periods of intensive treadmill training have been found efficient; however, the optimal modalities remain to be determined, especially interval training with active recovery (ITAR). In this prospective assessor-blinded single-centre pilot study, we assessed the feasibility of a randomised controlled trial comparing parallel 4-week intensive rehabilitation programs comprising treadmill training performed as ITAR or conventional training with constant slope and speed interspersed with rest periods (CT).
METHODS
A total of 38 in- or out-patients were randomised to the ITAR or CT program for 5 days/week for 4weeks. The primary outcome was change in maximum walking distance measured on a graded treadmill before and after the program.
RESULTS
Adherence was high. All training sessions were completed in the ITAR program and only a few were not completed in the CT program (median 100% [Q1-Q3 96-100]). Tolerance was excellent (no adverse events). VO 2peak was low in both groups, corresponding to moderate to severe exercise intolerance. The 2 groups did not differ in the primary outcome (median ITAR vs CT 480 [135-715] vs 315m [0-710]; p=0.62) or other walking distances (constant speed and gradient treadmill test). For all 38 participants, both programs greatly increased maximum walking distance in the graded treadmill test: median 415 [240-650] to 995m [410-1490], with a large effect size (p<10 -4 ).
CONCLUSION
A 4-week intensive rehabilitation program with ITAR or CT for intermittent claudication showed high adherence, was well tolerated, and improved walking distance as much as that reported for longer conventional programs.

476,31654497,Standard cross-linking protocol versus accelerated and transepithelial cross-linking protocols for treatment of paediatric keratoconus: a 2-year comparative study.,"PURPOSE
To compare the efficacy, safety and stability of standard epithelium-off cross-linking (SCXL) versus accelerated epithelium-off cross-linking (ACXL) and transepithelial epithelium-on cross-linking (TCXL) in the treatment of progressive keratoconus (KC) in children.
METHODS
This prospective multicentre controlled trial included 271 eyes (136 children) with grade 1-3 progressive KC who were randomized to undergo SCXL (n = 91, as a control group), ACXL (n = 92) or TCXL (n = 88). Uncorrected and corrected distance visual acuity, subjective refraction, pachymetry, keratometry and corneal topography measurements were recorded preoperatively and 6, 12 and 24 months postoperatively.
RESULTS
At 1 year, there was no significant difference in uncorrected distance visual acuity, refractive sphere, cylinder, spherical equivalent or Kmax between the ACXL and SCXL groups; however, during year 2, ACXL regressed while SCXL continued to improve. After 2 years, there were significant differences in all visual, refractive and keratometric components between SCXL and both ACXL and TCXL (p < 0.0001) and between ACXL and TCXL (p < 0.0001). KC progressed in 5.4% of patients who had ACXL and 28.4% of those who had TCXL but in none of those who had SCXL. Vernal keratoconjunctivitis was documented in 43.3% of eyes that progressed postoperatively.
CONCLUSION
SCXL was more effective for paediatric KC and achieved greater stability than either ACXL or TCXL, and ACXL was superior to TCXL. SCXL also achieved marked improvement in both myopia and spherical equivalent; however, these refractive outcomes were unpredictable and uncontrollable. TCXL had a 28.4% failure rate within 2 years.

477,32196506,"Efficacy of single versus four repeated doses of praziquantel against Schistosoma mansoni infection in school-aged children from Côte d'Ivoire based on Kato-Katz and POC-CCA: An open-label, randomised controlled trial (RePST).","BACKGROUND
Preventive chemotherapy with praziquantel (PZQ) is the cornerstone of schistosomiasis control. However, a single dose of PZQ (40 mg/kg) does not cure all infections. Repeated doses of PZQ at short intervals might increase efficacy in terms of cure rate (CR) and intensity reduction rate (IRR). Here, we determined the efficacy of a single versus four repeated treatments with PZQ on Schistosoma mansoni infection in school-aged children from Côte d'Ivoire, using two different diagnostic tests.
METHODS
An open-label, randomized controlled trial was conducted from October 2018 to January 2019. School-aged children with a confirmed S. mansoni infection based on Kato-Katz (KK) and point-of-care circulating cathodic antigen (POC-CCA) urine cassette test were randomly assigned to receive either a single or four repeated doses of PZQ, administered at two-week intervals. The primary outcome was the difference in CR between the two treatment arms, measured by triplicate KK thick smears 10 weeks after the first treatment. Secondary outcomes included CR estimated by POC-CCA, IRR by KK and POC-CCA, and safety of repeated PZQ administration.
PRINCIPAL FINDINGS
During baseline screening, 1,022 children were assessed for eligibility of whom 153 (15%) had a detectable S. mansoni infection, and hence, were randomized to the standard treatment group (N = 70) and the intense treatment group (N = 83). Based on KK, the CR was 42% (95% confidence interval (CI) 31-52%) in the standard treatment group and 86% (95% CI 75-92%) in the intense treatment group. Observed IRR was 72% (95% CI 55-83%) in the standard treatment group and 95% (95% CI 85-98%) in the intense treatment group. The CR estimated by POC-CCA was 18% (95% CI 11-27%) and 36% (95% CI 26-46%) in the standard and intense treatment group, respectively. Repeated PZQ treatment did not result in a higher number of adverse events.
CONCLUSION/SIGNIFICANCE
The observed CR using KK was significantly higher after four repeated treatments compared to a single treatment, without an increase in adverse events. Using POC-CCA, the observed CR was significantly lower than measured by KK, indicating that PZQ may be considerably less efficacious as concluded by KK. Our findings highlight the need for reliable and more accurate diagnostic tools, which are essential for monitoring treatment efficacy, identifying changes in transmission, and accurately quantifying the intensity of infection in distinct populations. In addition, the higher CR in the intense treatment group suggests that more focused and intense PZQ treatment can help to advance schistosomiasis control.

478,31640613,"The ReThink study: a 3-arm parallel randomized trial of cognitive bias modification, with and without adherence promotion, for adolescent anxiety disorder: trial design and protocol.","BACKGROUND
Anxiety disorders are the most common mental health problem among youth, contribute to reduced quality of daily life, and are associated with high rates of comorbidity. However, treatment rates for anxiety are very low, causing a sizeable treatment gap. There is an immediate need to identify treatment interventions that are effective, affordable, and can be delivered easily to the youth population. Cognitive Bias Modification (CBM) is one potentially effective intervention that could reach youth on a large scale, especially when self-administered at home. Thus, we aim to assess the benefit of CBM to treat youth anxiety. Further, we aim to test whether adding an adherence promotion (AP) component to the CBM intervention can improve outcomes, and whether CBM delivered both with and without the AP component is cost effective.
METHODS
This is a 12-month randomized controlled trial (RCT) conducted within an existing healthcare system. Potentially eligible youth (ages 12 to 17) will be identified by reviewing the electronic health record (EHR) for clinical anxiety diagnoses, which are then confirmed via research interview. We aim to enroll 498 participants and randomize them 1:1:1 to one of three arms: Arm 1 is a Low-Ratio version of the CBM program (nearly identical to the other CBM versions, but minimally effective); Arm 2 is a High-Ratio ""active"" CBM program; and Arm 3 is the High-Ratio CBM program with an added AP component. Participants will complete assessments at baseline, 1-, 3-, 6- and 12-months post-baseline. Youth in all three arms will self-administer the CBM program at home and will be asked to complete twelve intervention sessions over a four-week period. Arm 3 participants (High-Ratio CBM + AP) will also receive up to four telephone calls from phone coaches during the intervention period to provide technical assistance, encouragement, and motivational enhancement to increase adherence. The primary clinical outcome will be anxiety remission at 6-month follow-up.
DISCUSSION
This study protocol describes the method and design for an RCT to test whether self-administered CBM both with and without adherence promotion can be an effective at-home treatment for anxious youth.

479,31640632,Persistent physical symptoms reduction intervention: a system change and evaluation in secondary care (PRINCE secondary) - a CBT-based transdiagnostic approach: study protocol for a randomised controlled trial.,"BACKGROUND
Persistent physical symptoms (PPS), also known as medically unexplained symptoms (MUS), affect approximately 50% of patients in secondary care and are often associated with disability, psychological distress and increased health care costs. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) has demonstrated both short- and long-term efficacy with small to medium effect sizes for PPS, with larger treatment effects for specific PPS syndromes, including non-cardiac chest pain, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS). Research indicates that PPS conditions share similar cognitive and behavioural responses to symptoms, such as avoidance and unhelpful beliefs. This suggests that a transdiagnostic approach may be beneficial for patients with PPS.
METHODS
A randomised controlled trial (RCT) will be conducted to evaluate the efficacy and cost-effectiveness of a transdiagnostic CBT-based intervention for PPS. 322 participants with PPS will be recruited from secondary care clinics. Participants stratified by clinic and disability level will be randomised to CBT plus standard medical care (SMC) versus SMC alone. The intervention consists of 8 CBT sessions delivered by a qualified therapist over a period of 20 weeks. Outcomes will be assessed at 9, 20, 40- and 52-weeks post randomisation. Efficacy will be assessed by examining the difference between arms in the primary outcome Work and Social Adjustment Scale (WSAS) at 52 weeks after randomisation. Secondary outcomes will include mood, symptom severity and clinical global impression at 9, 20, 40 and 52 weeks. Cost-effectiveness will be evaluated by combining measures of health service use, informal care, loss of working hours and financial benefits at 52 weeks.
DISCUSSION
This trial will provide a powered evaluation of the efficacy and cost-effectiveness of a transdiagnostic CBT approach versus SMC for patients with PPS. It will also provide valuable information about potential healthcare pathways for patients with PPS within the National Health Service (NHS).

480,31606036,Reducing inappropriate psychotropic drug use in nursing home residents with dementia: protocol for participatory action research in a stepped-wedge cluster randomized trial.,"BACKGROUND
Psychotropic drugs are often prescribed to treat neuropsychiatric symptoms in nursing home residents with dementia, despite having limited efficacy and considerable side effects. To reduce the inappropriate prescribing of these psychotropic drugs, various non-pharmacological, psychosocial, person-centered, or multidisciplinary interventions are advocated. However, existing multidisciplinary interventions have shown variable effects, with limited effectiveness often resulting from suboptimal implementation. We hypothesize that an effective intervention needs to fit the local situation of a nursing home and that support should be offered during implementation.
METHODS
We will embed participatory action research within a stepped-wedge cluster randomized controlled trial to study the effects of a tailored intervention and implementation plan to reduce inappropriate psychotropic drug prescribing. Nursing homes will be provided with tailored information about the perceived problems of managing neuropsychiatric symptoms and we will offer coaching support throughout. Alongside the participatory action research, we will perform a process evaluation to examine the quality of the study, the intervention, and the implementation. Our aim is to recruit 600 residents from 16 nursing homes throughout the Netherlands, with measurements taken at baseline, 8 months, and 16 months. Nursing homes will be randomly allocated to an intervention or a deferred intervention group. During each intervention stage, we will provide information about inappropriate psychotropic drug prescribing, neuropsychiatric symptoms, and difficulties in managing neuropsychiatric symptoms through collaboration with each nursing home. After this, a tailored intervention and implementation plan will be written and implemented, guided by a coach. The primary outcome will be the reduction of inappropriate prescribing, as measured by the Appropriate Psychotropic drug use In Dementia index. Secondary outcomes will be the frequency of psychotropic drug use and neuropsychiatric symptoms, plus quality of life. A mixed methods design will be used for the process evaluation. Effects will be assessed using multilevel analyses. The project leader of the nursing home and the coach will complete questionnaires and in-depth interviews.
DISCUSSION
We anticipate that the proposed tailored intervention with coaching will reduce inappropriate psychotropic drug prescribing for nursing home residents with neuropsychiatric symptoms. This study should also provide insights into the barriers to, and facilitators of, implementation.

481,31619196,Effectiveness of a brief psychological mindfulness-based intervention for the treatment of depression in primary care: study protocol for a randomized controlled clinical trial.,"BACKGROUND
Depressive symptoms are quite prevalent in Primary Care (PC) settings. The treatment as usual (TAU) in PC is pharmacotherapy, despite the high relapse rates it produces. Many patients would prefer psychotherapy, but specialized services are overloaded. Studies that apply Mindfulness-Based Interventions (MBIs) for the treatment of depression have obtained significant improvements. Brief low-intensity approaches delivered from PC could be a promising approach. This study aims to compare a low-intensity mindfulness intervention for the treatment of depression in PC using different intervention formats - a face-to-face MBI delivered in a group and the same MBI individually applied on the Internet - to a control group that will receive PC medical treatment as usual.
METHODS
A randomized controlled clinical trial will be conducted in PC, with about 120 depressed patients allocated (1:1:1) to three groups: ""face-to-face MBI + TAU"", ""Internet-delivered MBI + TAU"", and ""TAU alone"". The MBI programs will be composed of four modules. The primary outcome will be depressive symptoms, measured through the Beck Depression Inventory, assessed at pre- and post-treatment and 6- and 12-month follow-ups. Other outcomes will be mindfulness, happiness, affectivity, quality of life, and the use of healthcare services. Intention-to-treat analysis using linear mixed models adjusted for baseline scores and routine sociodemographic analysis that could show baseline differences will be conducted. Per-protocol secondary outcome analyses will also be performed.
DISCUSSION
This is the first Spanish RCT to apply a low-intensity face-to-face MBI (plus TAU) to treat depression in PC settings compared to TAU (alone). Moreover, this study will also make it possible to evaluate the same MBI program (plus TAU), but Internet-delivered, considering their cost-effectiveness. Positive results from this RCT might have an important impact on mental health settings, helping to decrease the overload of the system and offering treatment alternatives beyond antidepressant medication through high-quality, flexible PC interventions.

482,32259016,Diabetes and Clinical Outcome in Patients With Metastatic Colorectal Cancer: CALGB 80405 (Alliance).,"Background
Diabetes is a prognostic factor for some malignancies, but its association with outcome in patients with advanced or metastatic colorectal cancer (CRC) is less clear.
Methods
This cohort study was nested within a randomized trial of first-line chemotherapy and bevacizumab and/or cetuximab for advanced or metastatic CRC. Patients were enrolled at 508 community and academic centers throughout the National Clinical Trials Network. The primary exposure was physician-documented diabetes at the time of enrollment. The primary endpoint was overall survival (OS); secondary endpoints were progression-free survival (PFS) and adverse events. Tests of statistical significance were two-sided.
Results
Among 2326 patients, 378 (16.3%) had diabetes. The median follow-up time was 6.0 years. We observed 1973 OS events and 2173 PFS events. The median time to an OS event was 22.7 months among those with diabetes and 27.1 months among those without diabetes (HR = 1.27, 95% CI = 1.13 to 1.44; P < .001). The median time to a PFS event was 9.7 months among those with diabetes and 10.8 months among those without diabetes (HR = 1.16, 95% CI = 1.03 to 1.30; P = .02). Patients with diabetes were more likely to experience no less than grade 3 hypertension (8.1% vs 4.4%; P = .054) but were not more likely to experience other adverse events, including neuropathy.

483,32257035,3D Printed Patient-Specific Acetabular Jig for Cup Placement in Total Hip Arthroplasty.,"Introduction
Acetabular cup placement is an important modifiable factor determining complication rates like aseptic loosening and hip dislocation related to faulty cup placement, which by standard method is largely dependent upon eyeballing and surgeon's judgment. We evaluated a self-designed, low-cost, patient-specific acetabular jig to guide cup placement in total hip arthroplasty in comparison to conventional technique.
Methods
It was a prospective randomized control study. Thirty-six patients were categorized into group-A & group-B. In group-A, virtually designed acetabular jig was 3 Dimensional (3D) printed and used intra-operatively to guide cup placement. In group-B, the standard method of cup placement was used. Acetabular cup placement was evaluated on post-operative x-rays and compared between two groups.
Results
In group-A, angle of anteversion were significantly in centre of range of safe zone as compared to group B in which hip is maximally stable with more precision in creating hip centre as compared to group-B without any significant( p = 0.325) increase in surgical time or blood loss.
Conclusion
Computed tomography (CT) scan based virtual pre-operative templating and cup placement guided by virtually designed, patient-specific acetabular jig is a low-cost tool with a short learning curve which can be designed and made available easily.

484,32278858,A dose-response evaluation of purified anthocyanins on inflammatory and oxidative biomarkers and metabolic risk factors in healthy young adults: A randomized controlled trial.,"OBJECTIVES
Anthocyanins derived from different plant sources have been found to possess a variety of health-promoting effects, including antiinflammatory properties and protection from oxidative stress. The aim of this study was to investigate the dose-response relationship between anthocyanins and metabolic risk factors as well as inflammatory and oxidative biomarkers in healthy adult volunteers.
METHODS
We conducted a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial, which included an increasing dosing schedule of 20, 40, 80, 160, and 320 mg of purified anthocyanins or placebo. Participants (n = 111) were administered either agent for 14 consecutive days.
RESULTS
No significant differences in either baseline characteristics or daily intake of dietary nutrients were detected between the experimental and control groups. After anthocyanin supplementation, there was a significant difference in adjusted fasting plasma glucose levels. The group receiving 80 mg/d of anthocyanin had the lowest baseline-adjusted fasting plasma glucose when compared with placebo (F = 3.556, P = 0.007). Logarithmically adjusted plasma interleukin-10 levels were negatively correlated with increasing anthocyanin dose (F = 2.738, P = 0.025). Similarly, 8-iso-prostaglandin F2α levels decreased with increasing anthocyanins dose (F = 3.513, P = 0.009).

485,32200266,Efficacy and safety of immediate oral intake in patients with mild acute pancreatitis: A randomized controlled trial.,"OBJECTIVES
Early enteral nutrition is recommended for patients with severe acute pancreatitis (AP); however, nutritional management strategies for patients with mild AP have not been established. The aim of this study was to evaluate the benefits and safety of immediate oral intake of low-fat solid food in patients with mild AP who were allowed to take opioid analgesics.
METHODS
In this single-center randomized study, the immediate feeding (IMF) group was permitted immediate oral intake of low-fat (15 g/d) solid food. In the standard food (STF) group, patients received gradually increasing amounts of dietary fat. Twenty-six patients were randomized, with 13 allocated to each group. The primary outcome was the period between diagnosis and recovery from AP. The cost and rate of progression to severe disease were evaluated as secondary outcomes.
RESULTS
The IMF group (mean recovery days: 2 ± 1) recovered significantly earlier (mean difference in recovery days: 6.3; 95% confidence interval [CI], 4.8-7.9; P < 0.001) than the STF group (mean recovery days: 8.3 ± 2.3), with a lower overall treatment cost (mean difference in costs: -$460; 95% CI, -$880 to -$40; P = 0.034). The IMF group showed a lower rate of progression to severe AP (IMF, 0%; STF, 15.3%; P = 0.48).
CONCLUSION
The initial treatment strategy for mild AP should be altered from the gradual introduction of oral feeding upon the absence of pain to immediate oral nutrition with opioid analgesics, to improve treatment efficacy and reduce treatment cost.",2020,"The IMF group showed a lower rate of progression to severe AP (IMF, 0%; STF, 15.3%; P = 0.48).

486,32222582,"Aggressive weight-loss program with a ketogenic induction phase for the treatment of chronic plaque psoriasis: A proof-of-concept, single-arm, open-label clinical trial.","OBJECTIVES
A very low-calorie ketogenic diet (VLCKD) has been associated with a significant reduction in visceral adipose tissue and ketone bodies that likely possess antiinflammatory properties. We evaluated the efficacy of an aggressive weight-loss (WL) program with a ketogenic induction phase as first-line treatment for chronic plaque psoriasis.
METHODS
Adult patients who were overweight or obese and drug-naïve (i.e., never treated, excluding the use of topical emollients; n = 37; 30% men; age: 43.1 ± 13.8 y) with stable chronic plaque psoriasis underwent a 10-wk, 2-phase WL program consisting of a 4-wk protein-sparing, VLCKD (<500 kcal/d; 1.2 g of protein/kg of ideal body weight/d) and 6-wk balanced, hypocaloric (25-30 kcal/kg of ideal body weight/d), Mediterranean-like diet. The primary endpoint was the reduction in Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) score at wk 10. Major secondary endpoints included PASI score responses of ≥50% and ≥75%, reduction in body surface area involved, improvement in itch severity (visual analogue scale), and Dermatology Life Quality Index score at wk 10.
RESULTS
With a mean body weight reduction of 12.0% (-10.6 kg), the dietary intervention resulted in a significant reduction in PASI (baseline score: 13.8 ± 6.9; range, 7-32), with a mean change of -10.6 (95% confidence interval, -12.8 to -8.4; P < 0.001). PASI score responses of ≥50% and ≥75% were recorded in 36 patients (97.3%) and 24 patients (64.9%), respectively. Treatment also resulted in a significant reduction (P < 0.001) in the body surface area involved (-17.4%) and an improvement in itch severity (-33.2 points) and Dermatology Life Quality Index score (-13.4 points).

487,32406383,Effectiveness of video game on bio- physiological parameters during intravenous cannulation among preschool children.,"Background Hospitalization is a completely new experience for infants and young children; they are too young to understand the stress of hospitalization. Distractions or diversions seek to divert the child's attention to interesting or challenging tasks to draw attention away from painful or distressful medical procedure. Therefore, the present study assesses the effectiveness of video game on bio-physiological parameters during intravenous cannulation among preschool children admitted in paediatric ward. Methods A randomized true experimental research design was used to assess the effectiveness of video game technique on pain and bio-physiological parameters during Intravenous Cannulation among preschool children admitted in paediatric ward at Sri Ramachandra Hospital in Chennai. The collected data were grouped and analysed using descriptive and inferential statistics, to assess the effectiveness of video games. Results There was a significant difference in the mean score of oxygen saturation of post-test compare to pre-test for both groups. The number of children feeling severe pain was more in the control group during intervention and this difference was highly significant. Oxygen saturation was more in control but not significant, but the heart rate was significantly higher in control group during intervention. There was no association during pre- post-test and oxygen saturation, with selected demographic variables of the preschool children in both groups, apart from the fact that children from low income group had significant low heart rate during pre- and post-test Discussion Video game is an effective method in reducing pain in children undergoing intravenous cannulation.

488,32234652,Gut microbiota composition after diet and probiotics in overweight breast cancer survivors: a randomized open-label pilot intervention trial.,"OBJECTIVES
Breast cancer (BC) is the most diagnosed cancer in women. Increasing survival rates shift attention to preventive strategies. Obesity and intestinal microbiota composition may be associated with BC. A Mediterranean diet (MD) proved to be protective. The aim of this study was to assess the efficacy of probiotics in addition to an MD versus diet alone in influencing gut microbiota and metabolic profile in overweight BC survivors.
METHODS
A total of 34 BC survivors were randomly assigned to an MD for 4 mo plus 1 sachet/d of probiotics (Bifidobacterium longum BB536, Lactobacillus rhamnosus HN001) for the first 2 mo (intervention group, n = 16) or an MD alone for 4 mo (control group, n = 18). Anthropometric and nutritional assessments, adherence to the MD, compliance with physical activity, and metabolic parameters dosage were performed at baseline (T0), at 2 mo (T2), and at 4 mo (T4). Intestinal microbiota analysis was performed at T0 and T2.
RESULTS
After 2 mo of probiotic administration the number of bacterial species (P = 0.01) and the bacterial diversity assessed with the Chao1 index (P = 0.004) significantly increased; no significant variations were detected after diet alone. The Bacteroidetes-to-Firmicutes ratio significantly decreased in the intervention group and increased in controls (P = 0.004). Significant reductions of body weight, body mass index, fasting glucose, and homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance were identified at T4 in both groups; in the intervention group waist circumference (P = 0.012), waist-to-hip ratio (P = 0.045), and fasting insulin (P = 0.017) also significantly decreased.

489,32234653,Adequacy and safety of α-lactalbumin-enriched low-protein infant formula: A randomized controlled trial.,"OBJECTIVES
The aim of this study was to demonstrate suitability and safety of an infant formula enriched with α-lactalbumin with a reduced protein content of 1.89 g protein/100 kcal.
METHODS
This was a randomized, double-blind controlled trial with 80 healthy newborn infants who were assigned to receive either an isocaloric low- or high-protein content formula (1.89 versus 2.1 g/100 kcal). The low-protein content formula was enriched with α-lactalbumin. A breast-fed reference group of 40 infants was studied concurrently. Anthropometric measures were taken at inclusion, after 6 and 12 wk as well as after 6 and 12 mo of follow-up. Primary outcome was weight gain in g/d between study inclusion to 12 wk. Secondary outcomes included anthropometric measures expressed in Z-scores, mean formula consumption, and caloric intake as well as food tolerance.
RESULTS
Fifty-two infants in the formula group (low protein: 26, high protein: 26) and 32 in the breast-fed reference group completed the 3-mo intervention period. There was no difference in weight gain among feeding groups at the end of the intervention period. Mean weight gain in g/d was 32 in the low-protein, 31 in the high-protein, and 33 in the breast-fed reference group. No significant difference was found between study groups in Z-scores for weight, length, head circumference, weight-for-length, or body mass index nor for fat percentage at end of intervention and after follow-up.

490,30267045,Effect of Foster Care Intervention on Trajectories of General and Specific Psychopathology Among Children With Histories of Institutional Rearing: A Randomized Clinical Trial.,"Importance
It is unclear whether early institutional rearing is associated with more problematic trajectories of psychopathology from childhood to adolescence and whether assignment to foster care mitigates this risk.
Objectives
To examine trajectories of latent psychopathology factors-general (P), internalizing (INT), and externalizing (EXT)-among children reared in institutions and to evaluate whether randomization to foster care is associated with reductions in psychopathology from middle childhood through adolescence.
Design, Setting, and Participants
This longitudinal, intent-to-treat randomized clinical trial was conducted in Bucharest, Romania, where children residing in 6 institutions underwent baseline testing and were then randomly assigned to a care as usual group (CAUG) or a foster care group (FCG). A matched sample of a never-institutionalized group (NIG) was recruited to serve as a comparison group. The study commenced in April 2001, and the most recent (age 16 years) follow-up started in January 2015 and is ongoing.
Intervention
Institutionally reared children randomized to high-quality foster homes.
Main Outcomes and Measures
Psychopathology was measured using the MacArthur Health and Behavior Questionnaire. Teachers and/or caregivers reported on symptoms of psychopathology in several domains.
Results
A total of 220 children (50.0% female; 119 ever institutionalized) were included in the analysis at the mean ages of 8, 12, and 16 years. A latent bifactor model with general (P) and specific internalizing (INT) and externalizing (EXT) factors offered a good fit to the data. At age 8 years, CAUG (mean, 0.41; 95% CI, 0.17-0.67) and FCG (mean, 0.30; 95% CI, 0.04-0.53) had higher P than NIG (mean, -0.40; 95% CI, -0.56 to -0.18). By age 16 years, FCG (mean, 0.07; 95% CI, -0.18 to 0.29) had lower P than CAUG (mean, 0.37; 95% CI, 0.13-0.60). This effect was likely driven by modest declines in P from age 8 years to age 16 years among FCG (slope, -0.12; 95% CI, -0.26 to 0.04) compared with CAUG, who remained stably high over this period (slope, -0.02; 95% CI, -0.19 to 0.14). Moreover, CAUG and FCG showed increasing divergence in EXT over time, such that FCG (mean, -0.30; 95% CI, -0.58 to -0.02) had fewer problems than CAUG (mean, 0.05; 95% CI, -0.25 to 0.36) by age 16 years. No INT differences were observed.
Conclusions and Relevance
Institutionalization increases transdiagnostic vulnerability to psychopathology from childhood to adolescence, a period of significant social and biological change. Early assignment to foster care partially mitigates this risk, thus highlighting the importance of social enrichment in buffering the effects of severe early neglect on trajectories of psychopathology.

491,31089727,An electronic health record-based interoperable eReferral system to enhance smoking Quitline treatment in primary care.,"OBJECTIVE
The study sought to determine whether interoperable, electronic health record-based referral (eReferral) produces higher rates of referral and connection to a state tobacco quitline than does fax-based referral, thus addressing low rates of smoking treatment delivery in health care.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
Twenty-three primary care clinics from 2 healthcare systems (A and B) in Wisconsin were randomized, unblinded, over 2016-2017, to 2 smoking treatment referral methods: paper-based fax-to-quit (system A =6, system B = 6) or electronic (eReferral; system A = 5, system B = 6). Both methods referred adult patients who smoked to the Wisconsin Tobacco Quitline. A total of 14 636 smokers were seen in the 2 systems (system A: 54.5% women, mean age 48.2 years; system B: 53.8% women, mean age 50.2 years).
RESULTS
Clinics with eReferral, vs fax-to-quit, referred a higher percentage of adult smokers to the quitline: system A clinic referral rate = 17.9% (95% confidence interval [CI], 17.2%-18.5%) vs 3.8% (95% CI, 3.5%-4.2%) (P < .001); system B clinic referral rate = 18.9% (95% CI, 18.3%-19.6%) vs 5.2% (95% CI, 4.9%-5.6%) (P < .001). Average rates of quitline connection were higher in eReferral than F2Q clinics: system A = 5.4% (95% CI, 5.0%-5.8%) vs 1.3% (95% CI, 1.1%-1.5%) (P < .001); system B = 5.3% (95% CI, 5.0%-5.7%) vs 2.0% (95% CI, 1.8%-2.2%) (P < .001).
DISCUSSION
Electronic health record-based eReferral provided an effective, closed-loop, interoperable means of referring patients who smoke to telephone quitline services, producing referral rates 3-4 times higher than the current standard of care (fax referral), including especially high rates of referral of underserved individuals.

492,31207561,Health-related quality of life in remitted psychotic depression ✰ .,"BACKGROUND
Some patients with major depression continue to demonstrate deficits in health-related quality of life (HRQL) following remission. No data exist, however, regarding HRQL in remitted psychotic depression. In this study, we aimed to characterize HRQL in patients with psychotic depression receiving controlled pharmacotherapy.
METHODS
This is a secondary analysis of a randomized controlled trial studying continuation pharmacotherapy of psychotic depression. We compared participants' HRQL (measured using the SF-36) between baseline and remission and to population norms. We also compared SF-36 scores stratified by age and gender and examined the correlation between SF-36 scores and medical burden, depression score and neuropsychological performance in remission.
RESULTS
SF-36 scores were significantly lower than population norms at baseline, but improved following remission to the level of population norms. Neither SF-36 scores nor magnitude of SF-36 improvement differed substantially between genders or between younger and older participants. In remission, depression scores were correlated with most SF-36 scales and medical burden was correlated with SF-36 scales measuring physical symptoms. Neuropsychological measures were generally not correlated with SF-36 scores.
LIMITATIONS
This study was a secondary analysis not powered specifically to measure HRQL as an outcome variable and the SF-36 was the only HRQL measure used.

493,30946478,Can menstrual health apps selected based on users' needs change health-related factors? A double-blind randomized controlled trial.,"OBJECTIVE
Most healthcare providers are reluctant to use health apps for healthcare because there is no rigorous way of choosing the best app for their patient or consumer. Accordingly, we developed a new method of app selection that fully considers target users' needs. This study verified whether health apps selected based on target users' needs can influence health-related factors.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
We conducted a randomized control trial of women with dysmenorrhea and premenstrual syndrome using App A (the best app selected using the new method) and App B (the app with the highest number of users worldwide). The intervention was performed over 4 months to include at least 3 menstrual cycles.
RESULTS
Sixty-one app users completed the 16-week intervention. While users rated both apps as higher in quality than previously used menstrual apps, only App A users showed significant improvements in overall satisfaction, app outcome expectancy, the number of days with records, app social influence, intent to recommend, and the possibility of behavioral or cognitive changes in their symptom management. The number of menus used increased over time. While the app self-efficacy and the number of relief methods did not significantly differ between groups, they still showed an increase in App A users.
CONCLUSIONS
When a menstrual app reflected users' needs, they recorded their symptoms more often and reported higher app quality, satisfaction, and intention to recommend. This study can not only benefit the selection of menstrual apps, but also confirm that mobile health apps can improve health-related factors.",2019,"While the app self-efficacy and the number of relief methods did not significantly differ between groups, they still showed an increase in App A users.

494,31488103,Dynamic Interactive Social Cognition Training in Virtual Reality (DiSCoVR) for social cognition and social functioning in people with a psychotic disorder: study protocol for a multicenter randomized controlled trial.,"BACKGROUND
Problems in social functioning (e.g., unemployment, social isolation), are common in people with a psychotic disorder. Social cognition is a treatment target to improve social functioning, as it is a proximal predictor of social functioning. Social Cognition Training (SCT) improves social cognition, but may not generalize (enduringly) to social functioning, perhaps due to insufficient opportunity to practice in daily-life social situations. Using virtual reality (VR) for SCT could address this problem, as VR is customizable, accessible, and interactive. We will test the effect of a VR SCT, 'DiSCoVR', on social cognition and social functioning in a randomized controlled trial (RCT).
METHODS
In total 100 people with a psychotic disorder and deficits in social cognition will be recruited for this multicenter randomized controlled trial (RCT). Participants will be randomized to VR SCT (DiSCoVR) or VR relaxation training (VRelax; active control). DiSCoVR is a 16-session individual SCT, consisting of three modules: 1) emotion perception (recognizing facial emotions in a virtual shopping street); 2) social perception and theory of mind (observing social interactions between virtual characters and assessing their behavior, emotions and thoughts); and 3) application of higher-order social cognition in social interaction (role-playing personalized situations in VR). People receiving VRelax complete sixteen individual sessions, in which they receive psycho-education about stress, identify personal stressors, learn relaxation techniques, and explore relaxing immersive virtual environments. Assessments will be performed at baseline, post-treatment, and 3-month follow-up. Primary outcomes are emotion perception (Ekman 60 Faces), social perception and theory of mind (The Awareness of Social Inference Test). Secondary outcomes include social functioning (Personal and Social Performance Scale), experiences and social interactions in daily life (experience sampling of emotions, social participation and subjective experience of social situations), psychiatric symptoms (e.g., depression, perceived stress, anxiety, positive and negative symptoms) and self-esteem.
DISCUSSION
To our knowledge, this will be the first RCT testing the efficacy of VR SCT. It will also investigate generalization to daily life social situations, the durability of treatment effects, and moderators and mediators of treatment success.

495,31488144,"A minimum evaluation protocol and stepped-wedge cluster randomized trial of ACCESS Open Minds, a large Canadian youth mental health services transformation project.","BACKGROUND
Many Canadian adolescents and young adults with mental health problems face delayed detection, long waiting lists, poorly accessible services, care of inconsistent quality and abrupt or absent inter-service transitions. To address these issues, ACCESS Open Minds, a multi-stakeholder network, is implementing and systematically evaluating a transformation of mental health services for youth aged 11 to 25 at 14 sites across Canada. The transformation plan has five key foci: early identification, rapid access, appropriate care, the elimination of age-based transitions between services, and the engagement of youth and families.
METHODS
The ACCESS Open Minds Research Protocol has multiple components including a minimum evaluation protocol and a stepped-wedge cluster randomized trial, that are detailed in this paper. Additional components include qualitative methods and cost-effectiveness analyses. The services transformation is being evaluated at all sites via a minimum evaluation protocol. Six sites are participating in the stepped-wedge trial whereby the intervention (a service transformation along the key foci) was rolled out in three waves, each commencing six months apart. Two sites, one high-population and one low-population, were randomly assigned to each of the three waves, i.e., randomization was stratified by population size. Our primary hypotheses pertain to increased referral numbers, and reduced wait times to initial assessment and to the commencement of appropriate care. Secondary hypotheses pertain to simplified pathways to care; improved clinical, functional and subjective outcomes; and increased satisfaction among youth and families. Quantitative measures addressing these hypotheses are being used to determine the effectiveness of the intervention.
DISCUSSION
Data from our overall research strategy will help test the effectiveness of the ACCESS Open Minds transformation, refine it further, and inform its scale-up. The process by which our research strategy was developed has implications for the practice of research itself in that it highlights the need to actively engage all stakeholder groups and address unique considerations in designing evaluations of complex healthcare interventions in multiple, diverse contexts. Our approach will generate both concrete evidence and nuanced insights, including about the challenges of conducting research in real-world settings. More such innovative approaches are needed to advance youth mental health services research.

496,31429023,HTX-011 reduced pain intensity and opioid consumption versus bupivacaine HCl in herniorrhaphy: results from the phase 3 EPOCH 2 study.,"PURPOSE
Currently available local anesthetics have not demonstrated sufficient analgesia beyond 12-24 h postoperatively. The purpose of the study was to assess the safety and efficacy of HTX-011 (bupivacaine and meloxicam in Biochronomer ® polymer technology), a long-acting investigational anesthetic, in reducing both postoperative pain over 72 h and postoperative opioid use compared to bupivacaine hydrochloride (HCl).
METHODS
A phase 3, randomized, double-blind, active-controlled multi-center study (EPOCH 2; NCT03237481) in subjects undergoing unilateral open inguinal herniorrhaphy with mesh placement was performed. Subjects randomly received a single intraoperative dose of HTX-011, immediate-release bupivacaine HCl, or saline placebo prior to closure.
RESULTS
The study evaluated 418 subjects, and the primary and all key secondary efficacy endpoints were in favor of HTX-011. HTX-011 reduced mean pain intensity by 23% versus placebo (primary endpoint; p < 0.001) and by 21% versus bupivacaine HCl (p < 0.001) with significant reductions in the number of patients experiencing severe pain. Opioid consumption over 72 h was reduced by 38% versus placebo (p < 0.001) and 25% versus bupivacaine HCl (p = 0.024). Overall, 51% of HTX-011 subjects were opioid-free through 72 h (versus 22% for placebo [p < 0.001] and 40% for bupivacaine HCl [p = 0.049]). HTX-011 was generally well-tolerated with fewer opioid-related adverse events reported compared to the bupivacaine HCl and placebo and no evidence of local anesthetic systemic toxicity.

497,31726472,[Influence of Local Insufflation of Warm Humidified CO2 on the Wound Surface and Body Core Temperature as well as on Wound Healing in Open Colorectal Surgery].,"BACKGROUND
Perioperative hypothermia may lead to serious complications. This study aims to investigate whether intraoperative insufflation of warmed and humidified carbon dioxide (W-H-CO 2 ) into the open wound during open colorectal surgery influences body core and wound surface temperatures or the incidence of wound healing disorders (WHD).
METHODS
Between 02/2018 and 07/2019, 50 patients intended to undergo open resection for colorectal cancer were recruited and randomised to a control group (n = 25) and an experimental group (n = 25). In the experimental group, a device for insufflation of W-H-CO 2 was used. Body core and wound surface temperatures were recorded at the beginning and before finishing the procedure. IL-6 serum levels were determined preoperatively and during the postoperative course. Clinical observation of wound healing was performed until the 30th day post-op.
RESULTS
Both groups were homogeneous in terms of risk factors for WHD. In the control group, the median body core temperature (1. quartile/3. quartile) was 36.2 °C (36/36.4 °C) when the operation started and 36.2 °C (35.9/36.45 °C) at the end, while in the experimental group it was initially 36.2 °C (35.7/36.4 °C) and 36.4 °C (36/36.7 °C) at the end. There was no significant difference between the two groups (p = 0.08). The wound temperature in the control group dropped from 32.8 °C (median; 31.85/34.05 °C) to 30.7 °C (median; 29.85/32.15 °C). In the experimental group, we recorded a drop from 31.9 °C (median; 30.25/32.95 °C) to 31.6 °C (median; 30.25/31.85 °C), which was statistically significant (p = 0.000475). The dynamic of the IL-6 serum levels in both groups suggest that there was no significant difference (p = 0.66; p = 0.88; p = 0.88). In the control group, 8 patients experienced superficial WHD, 2 anastomotic leakages (AL), while in the experimental group, superficial WHD were observed in 5 patients and AL in 1 patient. This differences between the groups regarding in WHD were not significant (p = 0.42).
CONCLUSION
The established measures for prevention of perioperative hypothermia in elective procedures are sufficient. However, the local wound surface temperature is not preserved satisfactorily. Deployment of a device for intraoperative insufflation of W-H-CO 2 into open wounds may be suitable for maintaining local normothermia. Further studies are needed to determine the influence of warm and humid CO 2 on wound healing.",2020,IL-6,"['Open Colorectal Surgery', '50 patients intended to undergo open resection for colorectal cancer', 'Between 02/2018 and 07/2019']","['intraoperative insufflation of warmed and humidified carbon dioxide (W-H-CO 2 ', 'IL-6', 'Local Insufflation of Warm Humidified CO2']","['superficial WHD', 'Body core and wound surface temperatures', 'IL-6 serum levels', 'median body core temperature', 'wound healing', 'serum levels', 'wound temperature', 'superficial WHD, 2 anastomotic leakages (AL']","[{'cui': 'C0175566', 'cui_str': 'Patent (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0009369', 'cui_str': 'Colon and Rectal Surgery Specialty'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C0728940', 'cui_str': 'Surgical removal - action'}, {'cui': 'C0346629', 'cui_str': 'Malignant tumor of large intestine (disorder)'}]","[{'cui': 'C0456904', 'cui_str': 'Intraoperative (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0021634', 'cui_str': 'Insufflation'}, {'cui': 'C0007012', 'cui_str': 'Carbon Dioxide'}, {'cui': 'C0021760', 'cui_str': 'Interleukin-6'}, {'cui': 'C0205276', 'cui_str': 'Local (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0184348', 'cui_str': 'Warmer'}, {'cui': 'C1143776', 'cui_str': 'cobalt(II) bis(2,2,6,6-tetramethylheptane-3,5-dionate)'}]","[{'cui': 'C0205124', 'cui_str': 'Superficial (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0444669', 'cui_str': 'Core (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0021501', 'cui_str': 'wounds'}, {'cui': 'C0205148', 'cui_str': 'Surface (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0039476', 'cui_str': 'Temperature'}, {'cui': 'C0021760', 'cui_str': 'Interleukin-6'}, {'cui': 'C0229671', 'cui_str': 'Serum'}, {'cui': 'C0456079', 'cui_str': 'Level (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C2939193', 'cui_str': 'Median (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0043240', 'cui_str': 'Wound Healing'}, {'cui': 'C0919691', 'cui_str': 'Anastomotic Leakage'}]",50.0,0.0324764,IL-6,"[{'ForeName': 'Georgi', 'Initials': 'G', 'LastName': 'Kalev', 'Affiliation': 'Klinik für Allgemein-, Viszeral-, Thorax- und Kinderchirurgie, Klinikum Ludwigsburg, Deutschland.'}, {'ForeName': 'Thomas', 'Initials': 'T', 'LastName': 'Egglseder', 'Affiliation': 'Klinik für Allgemein-, Viszeral-, Thorax- und Kinderchirurgie, Klinikum Ludwigsburg, Deutschland.'}, {'ForeName': 'Christoph', 'Initials': 'C', 'LastName': 'Marquardt', 'Affiliation': 'Klinik für Allgemein-, Viszeral-, Thorax- und Kinderchirurgie, Klinikum Ludwigsburg, Deutschland.'}, {'ForeName': 'Thomas', 'Initials': 'T', 'LastName': 'Schiedeck', 'Affiliation': 'Klinik für Allgemein-, Viszeral-, Thorax- und Kinderchirurgie, Klinikum Ludwigsburg, Deutschland.'}]",Zentralblatt fur Chirurgie,['10.1055/a-1024-4702']
498,31891601,Evaluation of a savings-led family-based economic empowerment intervention for AIDS-affected adolescents in Uganda: A four-year follow-up on efficacy and cost-effectiveness.,"BACKGROUND
Children who have lost a parent to HIV/AIDS, known as AIDS orphans, face multiple stressors affecting their health and development. Family economic empowerment (FEE) interventions have the potential to improve these outcomes and mitigate the risks they face. We present efficacy and cost-effectiveness analyses of the Bridges study, a savings-led FEE intervention among AIDS-orphaned adolescents in Uganda at four-year follow-up.
METHODS
Intent-to-treat analyses using multilevel models compared the effects of two savings-led treatment arms: Bridges (1:1 matched incentive) and BridgesPLUS (2:1 matched incentive) to a usual care control group on the following outcomes: self-rated health, sexual health, and mental health functioning. Total per-participant costs for each arm were calculated using the treatment-on-the-treated sample. Intervention effects and per-participant costs were used to calculate incremental cost-effectiveness ratios (ICERs).
FINDINGS
Among 1,383 participants, 55% were female, 20% were double orphans. Mean age was 12 years at baseline. At 48-months, BridgesPLUS significantly improved self-rated health, (0.25, 95% CI 0.06, 0.43), HIV knowledge (0.21, 95% CI 0.01, 0.41), self-concept (0.26, 95% CI 0.09, 0.44), and self-efficacy (0.26, 95% CI 0.09, 0.43) and lowered hopelessness (-0.28, 95% CI -0.43, -0.12); whereas Bridges improved self-rated health (0.26, 95% CI 0.08, 0.43) and HIV knowledge (0.22, 95% CI 0.05, 0.39). ICERs ranged from $224 for hopelessness to $298 for HIV knowledge per 0.2 standard deviation change.
CONCLUSIONS
Most intervention effects were sustained in both treatment arms at two years post-intervention. Higher matching incentives yielded a significant and lasting effect on a greater number of outcomes among adolescents compared to lower matching incentives at a similar incremental cost per unit effect. These findings contribute to the evidence supporting the incorporation of FEE interventions within national social protection frameworks.",2019,Higher matching incentives yielded a significant and

499,31600598,A two-part phase 1 study to establish and compare the safety and local tolerability of two nasal formulations of XF-73 for decolonisation of Staphylococcus aureus: A previously investigated 0.5mg/g viscosified gel formulation versus a modified formulation.,"OBJECTIVES
Successful decolonisation of nasal Staphylococcus aureus (SA) carriage by mupirocin is limited by increasing drug resistance. This randomised, open-label, phase 1 study compared the safety and local tolerability of two nasal formulations of XF-73, a novel porphyrinic antibacterial with rapid intrinsic activity against SA.
METHODS
The study was performed in 60 healthy adults. In Part 1, eight non-SA carriers were randomised to groups of four subjects each and were treated with XF-73 concentrations of 0.5mg/g 2% gel or 2.0mg/g 2% gel. In Part 2, 52 persistent SA carriers were randomised to groups of 13 subjects each and were treated with XF-73 concentrations of 0.5mg/g 2% gel, 2.0mg/g 2% gel, 0.5mg/g 4% gel or 4% viscosified placebo gel. Plasma pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic studies were performed. Antistaphylococcal activity was assessed as the presence/absence of SA and by quantification of colonisation using a semiquantitative scale (SA score).
RESULTS
56 subjects (8/8 from Part 1 and 48/52 from Part 2) completed the study, with 47/60 comprising the pharmacokinetic population and 48/60 the pharmacodynamic population. There was no measurable systemic absorption of XF-73. XF-73 treatment was associated with rapid reduction in SA score in all subjects. The most common treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) were rhinorrhoea and nasal dryness (15.5% each in Parts 1 and 2). TEAEs were mild and resolved spontaneously.
CONCLUSION
XF-73 was well tolerated with minimal side effects at doses of 0.5mg/g 2% gel and 2.0mg/g 2% gel. These findings support further development of XF-73.",2019,"CONCLUSION

500,31500602,Clinical and cost-effectiveness of guided internet-based interventions in the indicated prevention of depression in green professions (PROD-A): study protocol of a 36-month follow-up pragmatic randomized controlled trial.,"BACKGROUND
People in green professions are exposed to a variety of risk factors, which could possibly enhance the development of depression. Amongst possible prevention approaches, internet- and mobile-based interventions (IMIs) have been shown to be effective and scalable. However, little is known about the effectiveness in green professions. The aim of the present study is to examine the (cost-)effectiveness of a tailored IMI program for reducing depressive symptoms and preventing the onset of clinical depression compared to enhanced treatment as usual (TAU+).
METHODS
A pragmatic randomized controlled trial (RCT) will be conducted to evaluate a tailored and therapeutically guided preventive IMI program in comparison to TAU+ with follow-ups at post-treatment (9 weeks), 6-, 12-, 24-, and 36-months. Entrepreneurs in green professions, collaborating spouses, family members and pensioners (N = 360) with sufficient insurance status and at least subthreshold depression (PHQ-9 ≥ 5) are eligible for inclusion. Primary outcome is depressive symptom severity (QIDS-SR16). Secondary outcomes include incidence of depression (QIDS-SR16), quality of life (AQoL-8D) and negative treatment effects (INEP). A health-economic evaluation will be conducted from a societal perspective. The IMI program is provided by psychologists of an external service company and consists of six guided IMIs (6-8 modules, duration: 6-8 weeks) targeting different symptoms (depressive mood, depressive mood with comorbid diabetes, perceived stress, insomnia, panic and agoraphobic symptoms or harmful alcohol use). Intervention choice depends on a screening of participants' symptoms and individual preferences. The intervention phase is followed by a 12-months consolidating phase with monthly contact to the e-coach.
DISCUSSION
This is the first pragmatic RCT investigating long-term effectiveness of a tailored guided IMI program for depression prevention in green professions. The present trial builds on a large-scale strategy for depression prevention in green professions. The intended implementation of the IMI program with a nationwide rollout has the potential to reduce overall depression burden and associated health care costs in case of given effectiveness.

Thus, telomere shortening may precede acquisition of the high-risk aberrations, contributing to disease evolution.

502,31126825,One-year follow-up of a remotely delivered epilepsy self-management program in high-risk people with epilepsy.,"OBJECTIVE
""Self-management for people with epilepsy and a history of negative health events"" (SMART) is a novel group-format epilepsy self-management intervention demonstrated to reduce negative health events (NHEs) such as accidents, emergency department visits, and seizures in adults with epilepsy in a 6-month prospective randomized controlled trial (RCT); SMART also reduced depressive symptoms and improved health functioning and quality of life. This report describes the longer-term (12-month) post-efficacy RCT outcomes in adults with epilepsy who received SMART.
METHODS
After completing a 6-month, prospective RCT that demonstrated efficacy of SMART vs 6-month waitlist control (WL), adults ≥18 years of age with epilepsy were followed for an additional 12 months. Individuals originally randomized to WL received the 8-week SMART intervention immediately following the conclusion of the RCT. For this long-term extension analysis, assessments were conducted at 24 weeks (the 6-month primary outcome time-point of the efficacy RCT), at 32 weeks for individuals originally randomized to WL, and at 48 weeks and 72 weeks for all individuals. Outcomes assessed included past 6-month NHE counts, depressive symptoms assessed with the 9-item Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9) and Montgomery-Asberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS), and quality of life assessed with the 10-item Quality of Life in Epilepsy (QOLIE-10).
RESULTS
At the beginning of this long-term observational period (24-week follow-up time point for the original RCT), there were 50 individuals in the group originally randomized to SMART and 52 originally randomized to WL. Mean age was 41.4 years, 70% women (N = 71), 64% (N = 65) African-American, and 8% Hispanic (N = 8). Study attrition from week 24 to week 72 was 8% in the arm originally randomized to SMART and 17% in the arm originally randomized to WL. During the 12-month observation period (24 weeks to 72 weeks), there were a total of 44 serious adverse events and 4 deaths, none related to study participation. There was no significant change in total past 6-month NHE counts in the group originally randomized to SMART, although the group had significantly reduced 6-month seizure counts. The group originally randomized to WL, who received SMART during this observational period, had a reduction in total NHE counts. The group originally randomized to SMART had relatively stable levels on other outcome variables except for a trend for improved MADRS (p = 0.08). In the group originally randomized to WL, there were significant improvements in PHQ-9 (p = 0.01), MADRS (p ≤ 0.01), and QOLIE-10 (p = 0.004).
CONCLUSIONS
This post-RCT extension study suggests that adults with epilepsy who participate in the SMART intervention sustain clinical effects at 1-year follow-up and may have incremental improvements in seizure frequency and mood. Future research needs to identify opportunities for scale-up and outreach to other high-risk groups with epilepsy.",2019,"In the group originally randomized to WL, there were significant improvements in PHQ-9 (p = 0.01), MADRS (p ≤ 0.01), and QOLIE-10 (p = 0.004).

503,32266599,Assessment of Vancomycin Pharmacokinetics and Dose Regimen Optimisation in Preterm Neonates.,"BACKGROUND
The pharmacokinetics of vancomycin, a drug used for the treatment of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), varies between paediatric and adult patients.
OBJECTIVE
The objective of this study was to assess the pharmacokinetics of vancomycin in preterm neonates and determine the optimum dose regimen.
METHODS
This was a randomised double-blind study of preterm neonates admitted to neonatal intensive care units. They all received vancomycin 15 mg/kg every 12 h. Blood was sampled just before administration of the third, sixth and ninth vancomycin dose. Pharmacokinetic parameters were estimated using a Bayesian approach implemented in Monolix 2018R2 software. Covariates assessed included postmenstrual age, current weight, creatinine clearance, albumin, gestational age, body surface area and current age. We used Monte Carlo simulations for dose regimen optimisation targeting area under the concentration-time curve up to 24 h (AUC 0-24h ) of ≥ 400 mg × h/L.
RESULTS
In total, 19 preterm neonates were enrolled in the study with a median age of 14 (3-58) days. A one-compartment model with linear elimination best described the pharmacokinetics of vancomycin. Volume of distribution and clearance was 0.88 L and 0.1 L/h, respectively, for a typical neonate weighing 1.48 kg. Simulation of the current dose regimen showed that 27.5% of the neonates would achieve the target AUC 0-24h of ≥ 400 mg × h/L, and 70.7% of the neonates would achieve it with 12 mg/kg every 8 h.
CONCLUSION
The majority of the neonates were under dosed. Vancomycin 12 mg/kg should be administered every 8 h over 1 h infusion to improve the likelihood of achieving the AUC 0-24h target of ≥ 400 mg × h/L. This target is considered optimal for MRSA infections, where the vancomycin minimum inhibitory concentration is ≤ 1 µg/mL.",2020,We used Monte Carlo simulations for dose regimen optimisation targeting area under the concentration-time curve up to 24 h (AUC 0-24h ) of ≥ ,"['methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), varies between paediatric and adult patients', 'Preterm Neonates', '19 preterm neonates were enrolled in the study with a median age of 14 (3-58) days', 'preterm neonates', 'preterm neonates admitted to neonatal intensive care units']","['vancomycin', '400\xa0mg\u2009×', 'Vancomycin Pharmacokinetics', 'Vancomycin']","['postmenstrual age, current weight, creatinine clearance, albumin, gestational age, body surface area and current age', 'Volume of distribution and clearance']","[{'cui': 'C0343401', 'cui_str': 'Methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus infection'}, {'cui': 'C0030755', 'cui_str': 'Pediatric specialty'}, {'cui': 'C0001675', 'cui_str': 'Adult'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patient'}, {'cui': 'C0003065', 'cui_str': 'Animals, Neonatal'}, {'cui': 'C0008972', 'cui_str': 'Clinical Study'}, {'cui': 'C0549183', 'cui_str': 'Midline'}, {'cui': 'C0001779', 'cui_str': 'Age'}, {'cui': 'C0332173', 'cui_str': 'Daily'}, {'cui': 'C0184666', 'cui_str': 'Hospital admission'}, {'cui': 'C0021709', 'cui_str': 'Neonatal intensive care unit'}]","[{'cui': 'C0042313', 'cui_str': 'Vancomycin'}, {'cui': 'C3816746', 'cui_str': '400'}]","[{'cui': 'C0001779', 'cui_str': 'Age'}, {'cui': 'C0521116', 'cui_str': 'Current'}, {'cui': 'C0005910', 'cui_str': 'Body weight'}, {'cui': 'C0373595', 'cui_str': 'Measurement of renal clearance of creatinine'}, {'cui': 'C0001924', 'cui_str': 'albumin'}, {'cui': 'C0017504', 'cui_str': 'Fetal gestational age'}, {'cui': 'C0005902', 'cui_str': 'Body surface area'}, {'cui': 'C0449468', 'cui_str': 'Volume'}, {'cui': 'C0037775', 'cui_str': 'Distributions'}, {'cui': 'C0449297', 'cui_str': 'Clearance'}]",19.0,0.267709,We used Monte Carlo simulations for dose regimen optimisation targeting area under the concentration-time curve up to 24 h (AUC 0-24h ) of ≥ ,"[{'ForeName': 'Mwila', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Mulubwa', 'Affiliation': 'School of Pharmacy, University of the Western Cape, Private Bag X17, Bellville, Cape Town, 7535, South Africa. 3579753@myuwc.ac.za.'}, {'ForeName': 'Heletje Aletta', 'Initials': 'HA', 'LastName': 'Griesel', 'Affiliation': 'School of Pharmacy, University of the Western Cape, Private Bag X17, Bellville, Cape Town, 7535, South Africa.'}, {'ForeName': 'Pierre', 'Initials': 'P', 'LastName': 'Mugabo', 'Affiliation': 'School of Pharmacy, University of the Western Cape, Private Bag X17, Bellville, Cape Town, 7535, South Africa.'}, {'ForeName': 'Ricky', 'Initials': 'R', 'LastName': 'Dippenaar', 'Affiliation': 'Neonatology Department, Netcare Blaauwberg Hospital, Sunningdale, Cape Town, 7441, South Africa.'}, {'ForeName': 'Lizelle', 'Initials': 'L', 'LastName': 'van Wyk', 'Affiliation': 'Division of Neonatology, Department of Paediatrics and Child Health, Tygerberg Hospital, Stellenbosch University, Cape Town, 7505, South Africa.'}]",Drugs in R&D,['10.1007/s40268-020-00302-7']

505,32251792,The Efficacy and Safety of High-dose Daptomycin in the Treatment of Complicated Skin and Soft Tissue Infections in Asians.,"OBJECTIVE
To compare the efficacy and safety of standard-dose (SD) daptomycin with those of high-dose (HD) daptomycin in complicated skin and soft tissue infections (cSSTIs) in an Asian population.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
Patients from three medical centers diagnosed with cSSTIs were screened in the clinical information system. Patients included in the analysis were divided into two groups: those who received daptomycin at doses ≥ 6 mg/kg (HD group) and those receiving 4 mg/kg (SD group). The demographics and clinical treatment information were analyzed.
RESULTS
Overall, 155 patients were recruited, including 108 patients in the SD group and 47 patients in the HD group. The rate of healthcare-associated infections was higher in the HD group (61.70% vs. 37.04%), demonstrating a statistically significant difference (P = 0.005). Compared with the SD group, the HD group had statistically significant early clinical stabilization (72.34% vs 52.78%, P = 0.023). The results of the multivariate analysis indicated that HD daptomycin was an independent effector for early clinical stabilization (HR=0.394, P < 0.001). The rate of drug-related adverse events was equally distributed in the HD and SD groups (36.17% vs. 26.85%, P = 0.243).
CONCLUSION
Compared with SD daptomycin, HD daptomycin increased the rate of early clinical stabilization in Asian patients with cSSTIs, whereas the incidence of adverse events did not increase.",2020,"The rate of healthcare-associated infections was higher in the HD group (61.70% vs. 37.04%), demonstrating a statistically significant difference (P = 0.005).","['complicated skin and soft tissue infections (cSSTIs) in an Asian population', '155 patients were recruited, including 108 patients in the SD group and 47 patients in the HD group', 'Patients from three medical centers diagnosed with cSSTIs were screened in the clinical information system', 'Complicated Skin and Soft Tissue Infections in Asians']","['daptomycin at doses ≥ 6\u2009mg/kg (HD group) and those receiving 4\u2009mg/kg (SD group', 'High-dose Daptomycin', 'standard-dose (SD) daptomycin with those of high-dose (HD) daptomycin']","['clinical stabilization', 'rate of early clinical stabilization', 'incidence of adverse events', 'rate of drug-related adverse events', 'rate of healthcare-associated infections', 'efficacy and safety']","[{'cui': 'C4727978', 'cui_str': 'Complicated skin and soft tissue infection'}, {'cui': 'C0078988', 'cui_str': 'Oriental'}, {'cui': 'C0032659', 'cui_str': 'Population'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patient'}, {'cui': 'C0332257', 'cui_str': 'Including'}, {'cui': 'C4517530', 'cui_str': '108'}, {'cui': 'C0439745', 'cui_str': 'Grouped'}, {'cui': 'C0565990', 'cui_str': 'Medical center'}, {'cui': 'C0011900', 'cui_str': 'Diagnosis'}, {'cui': 'C0199230', 'cui_str': 'Screening for cancer'}, {'cui': 'C0205210', 'cui_str': 'Clinical'}, {'cui': 'C0021428', 'cui_str': 'Information system'}]","[{'cui': 'C0057144', 'cui_str': 'Daptomycin'}, {'cui': 'C0439272', 'cui_str': 'ug/g'}, {'cui': 'C0439745', 'cui_str': 'Grouped'}, {'cui': 'C0444956', 'cui_str': 'High dose'}, {'cui': 'C0038137', 'cui_str': 'standards'}, {'cui': 'C0178602', 'cui_str': 'Dosage'}]","[{'cui': 'C0205210', 'cui_str': 'Clinical'}, {'cui': 'C1293130', 'cui_str': 'Stabilization'}, {'cui': 'C1279919', 'cui_str': 'Early'}, {'cui': 'C0021149', 'cui_str': 'Incidence'}, {'cui': 'C0877248', 'cui_str': 'Adverse event'}, {'cui': 'C0013227', 'cui_str': 'Pharmaceutical / biologic product'}, {'cui': 'C0086388', 'cui_str': 'Healthcare'}, {'cui': 'C0332281', 'cui_str': 'Associated with'}, {'cui': 'C0009450', 'cui_str': 'Communicable disease'}, {'cui': 'C1280519', 'cui_str': 'Effectiveness'}, {'cui': 'C0036043', 'cui_str': 'Safety'}]",155.0,0.0449794,"The rate of healthcare-associated infections was higher in the HD group (61.70% vs. 37.04%), demonstrating a statistically significant difference (P = 0.005).","[{'ForeName': 'Xiao-Meng', 'Initials': 'XM', 'LastName': 'Dong', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Infectious Diseases, Qilu Hospital of Shandong University, Jinan 250012, China.'}, {'ForeName': 'Nan-Nan', 'Initials': 'NN', 'LastName': 'Xu', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Infectious Diseases, Qilu Hospital of Shandong University, Jinan 250012, China.'}, {'ForeName': 'Yong-Yuan', 'Initials': 'YY', 'LastName': 'Yao', 'Affiliation': ""Department of Intensive Care Medicine, Rizhao People's Hospital, Rizhao 276800, China.""}, {'ForeName': 'Yan-Yan', 'Initials': 'YY', 'LastName': 'Guan', 'Affiliation': ""Department of Infectious Diseases, Rizhao People's Hospital, Rizhao 276800, China.""}, {'ForeName': 'Qing-Yan', 'Initials': 'QY', 'LastName': 'Li', 'Affiliation': ""Department of Infectious Diseases, Liaocheng People's Hospital, Liaocheng 252000, China.""}, {'ForeName': 'Feng', 'Initials': 'F', 'LastName': 'Zheng', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Infectious Diseases, Qilu Hospital of Shandong University, Jinan 250012, China.'}, {'ForeName': 'Feng-Zhe', 'Initials': 'FZ', 'LastName': 'Chen', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Infectious Diseases, Qilu Hospital of Shandong University, Jinan 250012, China.'}, {'ForeName': 'Gang', 'Initials': 'G', 'LastName': 'Wang', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Infectious Diseases, Qilu Hospital of Shandong University, Jinan 250012, China.

508,31070709,"A phase III, randomized, open-label study of ASP8273 versus erlotinib or gefitinib in patients with advanced stage IIIB/IV non-small-cell lung cancer.","BACKGROUND
ASP8273, a novel, small molecule, irreversible tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) specifically inhibits the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) in patients with activating mutations or EGFR T790M resistance mutations. The current study examines the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of ASP8273 versus erlotinib or gefitinib in patients with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with activating EGFR mutations not previously treated with an EGFR inhibitor.
PATIENTS AND METHODS
This global, phase III, open-label, randomized study evaluated ASP8273 versus erlotinib/gefitinib in patients with locally advanced, metastatic, or unresectable stage IIIB/IV NSCLC with activating EGFR mutations. They were ineligible if they received prior chemotherapy for metastatic disease. The primary end point was progression-free survival (PFS), and secondary end points included overall survival, investigator-assessed PFS, best overall response rate (ORR), disease control rate, duration of response (DoR), and the safety/tolerability profile.
RESULTS
Patients (n = 530) were randomized 1 : 1 to receive ASP8273 (n = 267) or erlotinib/gefitinib (n = 263). Patient demographics between both treatment groups were generally balanced. Median PFS was 9.3 months (95% CI 5.6-11.1 months) for patients receiving ASP8273 and 9.6 months (95% CI 8.8-NE) for the erlotinib/gefitinib group, with a hazard ratio of 1.611 (P = 0.992). The ORR in the ASP8273 group was 33% (95% CI 27.4-39.0) versus 47.9% (95% CI 41.7-54.1) in the erlotinib/gefitinib group. Median DoR was similar for both groups (9.2 months for ASP8273 versus 9.0 months for erlotinib/gefitinib). More grade ≥3 treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) occurred in patients receiving ASP8273 than in those receiving erlotinib/gefitinib (54.7% versus 43.5%). An independent data monitoring committee carried out an interim safety analysis and recommended discontinuing the study due to toxicity and limited predicted efficacy of ASP8273 relative to erlotinib/gefitinib.
CONCLUSIONS
First-line ASP8273 did not show improved PFS or equivalent toxicities versus erlotinib/gefitinib.

509,31296648,Long-term Weight Loss Maintenance in the Continuation of a Randomized Diabetes Prevention Translational Study: The Healthy Living Partnerships to Prevent Diabetes (HELP PD) Continuation Trial.,"OBJECTIVE
HELP PD was a clinical trial of 301 adults with prediabetes. Participants were randomized to enhanced usual care (EUC) or to a lifestyle weight loss (LWL) intervention led by community health workers that consisted of a 6-month intensive phase (phase 1) and 18 months of maintenance (phase 2). At 24 months, participants were asked to enroll in phase 3 to assess whether continued group maintenance (GM) sessions would maintain improvements realized in phases 1 and 2 compared with self-directed maintenance (SM) or EUC.
RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS
In phase 3, LWL participants were randomly assigned to GM or SM. EUC participants remained in the EUC arm and, along with participants in SM, received monthly newsletters. All participants received semiannual dietitian sessions. Anthropometrics and biomarkers were assessed every 6 months. Mixed-effects models were used to assess changes in outcomes over time.
RESULTS
Eighty-two of the 151 intervention participants (54%) agreed to participate in phase 3; 41 were randomized to GM and 41 to SM. Of the 150 EUC participants, 107 (71%) continued. Ninety percent of clinic visits were completed. Over 48 months of additional follow-up, outcomes remained relatively stable in the EUC participants; the GM group was able to maintain body weight, BMI, and waist circumference; and these measures all increased significantly ( P < 0.001) in the SM group.
CONCLUSIONS
Participants in the GM arm maintained weight loss achieved in phases 1 and 2, while those in the SM arm regained weight.

510,30937431,Prolonged lung cancer screening reduced 10-year mortality in the MILD trial: new confirmation of lung cancer screening efficacy.,"BACKGROUND
The National Lung Screening Trial showed that lung cancer (LC) screening by three annual rounds of low-dose computed tomography (LDCT) reduces LC mortality. We evaluated the benefit of prolonged LDCT screening beyond 5 years, and its impact on overall and LC specific mortality at 10 years.
DESIGN
The Multicentric Italian Lung Detection (MILD) trial prospectively randomized 4099 participants, to a screening arm (n = 2376), with further randomization to annual (n = 1190) or biennial (n = 1186) LDCT for a median period of 6 years, or control arm (n = 1723) without intervention. Between 2005 and 2018, 39 293 person-years of follow-up were accumulated. The primary outcomes were 10-year overall and LC specific mortality. Landmark analysis was used to test the long-term effect of LC screening, beyond 5 years by exclusion of LCs and deaths that occurred in the first 5 years.
RESULTS
The LDCT arm showed a 39% reduced risk of LC mortality at 10 years [hazard ratio (HR) 0.61; 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.39-0.95], compared with control arm, and a 20% reduction of overall mortality (HR 0.80; 95% CI 0.62-1.03). LDCT benefit improved beyond the 5th year of screening, with a 58% reduced risk of LC mortality (HR 0.42; 95% CI 0.22-0.79), and 32% reduction of overall mortality (HR 0.68; 95% CI 0.49-0.94).
CONCLUSIONS
The MILD trial provides additional evidence that prolonged screening beyond 5 years can enhance the benefit of early detection and achieve a greater overall and LC mortality reduction compared with NLST trial.

511,31020334,Prognostic value of circulating tumour cells in limited-stage small-cell lung cancer: analysis of the concurrent once-daily versus twice-daily radiotherapy (CONVERT) randomised controlled trial.,"BACKGROUND
The clinical significance of circulating tumour cells (CTCs) in limited-stage small-cell lung cancer (LS-SCLC) is not well defined. We report a planned exploratory analysis of the prevalence and prognostic value of CTCs in LS-SCLC patients enrolled within the phase III randomised CONVERT (concurrent once-daily versus twice-daily chemoradiotherapy) trial.
PATIENTS AND METHODS
Baseline blood samples were enumerated for CTCs using CellSearch in 75 patients with LS-SCLC who were enrolled in the CONVERT trial and randomised between twice- and once-daily concurrent chemoradiation. Standard statistical methods were used for correlations of CTCs with clinical factors. Log-rank test and Cox regression analyses were applied to establish the associations of 2, 15 and 50 CTC thresholds with progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS). An optimal CTC count threshold for LS-SCLC was established.
RESULTS
CTCs were detected in 60% (45/75) of patients (range 0-3750). CTC count thresholds of 2, 15 and 50 CTCs all significantly correlate with PFS and OS. An optimal CTC count threshold in LS-SCLC was established at 15 CTCs, defining 'favourable' and 'unfavourable' prognostic risk groups. The median OS in <15 versus ≥15 CTCs was 26.7 versus 5.9 m (P = 0.001). The presence of ≥15 CTCs at baseline independently predicted ≤1 year survival in 70% and ≤2 years survival in 100% of patients.
CONCLUSION
We report the prognostic value of baseline CTC count in an exclusive LS-SCLC population at thresholds of 2, 15 and 50 CTCs. Specific to LS-SCLC, ≥15 CTCs was associated with worse PFS and OS independent of all other factors and predicted ≤2 years survival. These results may improve disease stratification in future clinical trial designs and aid clinical decision making.

512,31560068,Addition of docetaxel to hormonal therapy in low- and high-burden metastatic hormone sensitive prostate cancer: long-term survival results from the STAMPEDE trial.,"BACKGROUND
STAMPEDE has previously reported that the use of upfront docetaxel improved overall survival (OS) for metastatic hormone naïve prostate cancer patients starting long-term androgen deprivation therapy. We report on long-term outcomes stratified by metastatic burden for M1 patients.
METHODS
We randomly allocated patients in 2 : 1 ratio to standard-of-care (SOC; control group) or SOC + docetaxel. Metastatic disease burden was categorised using retrospectively-collected baseline staging scans where available. Analysis used Cox regression models, adjusted for stratification factors, with emphasis on restricted mean survival time where hazards were non-proportional.
RESULTS
Between 05 October 2005 and 31 March 2013, 1086 M1 patients were randomised to receive SOC (n = 724) or SOC + docetaxel (n = 362). Metastatic burden was assessable for 830/1086 (76%) patients; 362 (44%) had low and 468 (56%) high metastatic burden. Median follow-up was 78.2 months. There were 494 deaths on SOC (41% more than the previous report). There was good evidence of benefit of docetaxel over SOC on OS (HR = 0.81, 95% CI 0.69-0.95, P = 0.009) with no evidence of heterogeneity of docetaxel effect between metastatic burden sub-groups (interaction P = 0.827). Analysis of other outcomes found evidence of benefit for docetaxel over SOC in failure-free survival (HR = 0.66, 95% CI 0.57-0.76, P < 0.001) and progression-free survival (HR = 0.69, 95% CI 0.59-0.81, P < 0.001) with no evidence of heterogeneity of docetaxel effect between metastatic burden sub-groups (interaction P > 0.5 in each case). There was no evidence that docetaxel resulted in late toxicity compared with SOC: after 1 year, G3-5 toxicity was reported for 28% SOC and 27% docetaxel (in patients still on follow-up at 1 year without prior progression).
CONCLUSIONS
The clinically significant benefit in survival for upfront docetaxel persists at longer follow-up, with no evidence that benefit differed by metastatic burden.

513,31562758,Health-related quality of life in patients with a germline BRCA mutation and metastatic pancreatic cancer receiving maintenance olaparib.,"BACKGROUND
Patients with metastatic pancreatic cancer often have a detriment in health-related quality of life (HRQoL). In the randomized, double-blind, phase III POLO trial progression-free survival was significantly longer with maintenance olaparib, a poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitor, than placebo in patients with a germline BRCA1 and/or BRCA2 mutation (gBRCAm) and metastatic pancreatic cancer whose disease had not progressed during first-line platinum-based chemotherapy. The prespecified HRQoL evaluation is reported here.
PATIENTS AND METHODS
Patients were randomized to receive maintenance olaparib (300 mg b.i.d.; tablets) or placebo. HRQoL was assessed using the European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire Core 30-item module at baseline, every 4 weeks until disease progression, at discontinuation, and 30 days after last dose. Scores ranged from 0 to 100; a ≥10-point change or difference between arms was considered clinically meaningful. Adjusted mean change from baseline was analysed using a mixed model for repeated measures. Time to sustained clinically meaningful deterioration (TSCMD) was analysed using a log-rank test.
RESULTS
Of 154 randomized patients, 89 of 92 olaparib-arm and 58 of 62 placebo-arm patients were included in HRQoL analyses. The adjusted mean change in Global Health Status (GHS) score from baseline was <10 points in both arms and there was no significant between-group difference [-2.47; 95% confidence interval (CI) -7.27, 2.33; P = 0.31]. Analysis of physical functioning scores showed a significant between-group difference (-4.45 points; 95% CI -8.75, -0.16; P = 0.04). There was no difference in TSCMD for olaparib versus placebo for GHS [P = 0.25; hazard ratio (HR) 0.72; 95% CI 0.41, 1.27] or physical functioning (P = 0.32; HR 1.38; 95% CI 0.73, 2.63).
CONCLUSIONS
HRQoL was preserved with maintenance olaparib treatment with no clinically meaningful difference compared with placebo. These results support the observed efficacy benefit of maintenance olaparib in patients with a gBRCAm and metastatic pancreatic cancer.

514,31504126,Breast Cancer Index and prediction of benefit from extended endocrine therapy in breast cancer patients treated in the Adjuvant Tamoxifen-To Offer More? (aTTom) trial.,"BACKGROUND
Extending the duration of adjuvant endocrine therapy reduces the risk of recurrence in a subset of women with early-stage hormone receptor-positive (HR+) breast cancer. Validated predictive biomarkers of endocrine response could significantly improve patient selection for extended therapy. Breast cancer index (BCI) [HOXB13/IL17BR ratio (H/I)] was evaluated for its ability to predict benefit from extended endocrine therapy in patients previously randomized in the Adjuvant Tamoxifen-To Offer More? (aTTom) trial.
PATIENTS AND METHODS
Trans-aTTom is a multi-institutional, prospective-retrospective study in patients with available formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded primary tumor blocks. BCI testing and central determination of estrogen receptor (ER) and progesterone receptor (PR) status by immunohistochemistry were carried out blinded to clinical outcome. Survival endpoints were evaluated using Kaplan-Meier analysis and Cox regression with recurrence-free interval (RFI) as the primary endpoint. Interaction between extended endocrine therapy and BCI (H/I) was assessed using the likelihood ratio test.
RESULTS
Of 583 HR+, N+ patients analyzed, 49% classified as BCI (H/I)-High derived a significant benefit from 10 versus 5 years of tamoxifen treatment [hazard ratio (HR): 0.35; 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.15-0.86; 10.2% absolute risk reduction based on RFI, P = 0.027]. BCI (H/I)-low patients showed no significant benefit from extended endocrine therapy (HR: 1.07; 95% CI 0.69-1.65; -0.2% absolute risk reduction; P = 0.768). Continuous BCI (H/I) levels predicted the magnitude of benefit from extended tamoxifen, whereas centralized ER and PR did not. Interaction between extended tamoxifen treatment and BCI (H/I) was statistically significant (P = 0.012), adjusting for clinicopathological factors.
CONCLUSION
BCI by high H/I expression was predictive of endocrine response and identified a subset of HR+, N+ patients with significant benefit from 10 versus 5 years of tamoxifen therapy. These data provide further validation, consistent with previous MA.17 data, establishing level 1B evidence for BCI as a predictive biomarker of benefit from extended endocrine therapy.

515,31504118,Myelopreservation with the CDK4/6 inhibitor trilaciclib in patients with small-cell lung cancer receiving first-line chemotherapy: a phase Ib/randomized phase II trial.,"BACKGROUND
Chemotherapy-induced damage of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPC) causes multi-lineage myelosuppression. Trilaciclib is an intravenous CDK4/6 inhibitor in development to proactively preserve HSPC and immune system function during chemotherapy (myelopreservation). Preclinically, trilaciclib transiently maintains HSPC in G1 arrest and protects them from chemotherapy damage, leading to faster hematopoietic recovery and enhanced antitumor immunity.
PATIENTS AND METHODS
This was a phase Ib (open-label, dose-finding) and phase II (randomized, double-blind placebo-controlled) study of the safety, efficacy and PK of trilaciclib in combination with etoposide/carboplatin (E/P) therapy for treatment-naive extensive-stage small-cell lung cancer patients. Patients received trilaciclib or placebo before E/P on days 1-3 of each cycle. Select end points were prespecified to assess the effect of trilaciclib on myelosuppression and antitumor efficacy.
RESULTS
A total of 122 patients were enrolled, with 19 patients in part 1 and 75 patients in part 2 receiving study drug. Improvements were seen with trilaciclib in neutrophil, RBC (red blood cell) and lymphocyte measures. Safety on trilaciclib+E/P was improved with fewer ≥G3 adverse events (AEs) in trilaciclib (50%) versus placebo (83.8%), primarily due to less hematological toxicity. No trilaciclib-related ≥G3 AEs occurred. Antitumor efficacy assessment for trilaciclib versus placebo, respectively, showed: ORR (66.7% versus 56.8%, P = 0.3831); median PFS [6.2 versus 5.0 m; hazard ratio (HR) 0.71; P = 0.1695]; and OS (10.9 versus 10.6 m; HR 0.87; P = 0.6107).
CONCLUSION
Trilaciclib demonstrated an improvement in the patient's tolerability of chemotherapy as shown by myelopreservation across multiple hematopoietic lineages resulting in fewer supportive care interventions and dose reductions, improved safety profile, and no detriment to antitumor efficacy. These data demonstrate strong proof-of-concept for trilaciclib's myelopreservation benefits.

516,31560066,Apalutamide and overall survival in non-metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer.,"BACKGROUND
In the SPARTAN study, compared with placebo, apalutamide added to ongoing androgen deprivation therapy significantly prolonged metastasis-free survival (MFS) and time to symptomatic progression in patients with high-risk non-metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (nmCRPC). Overall survival (OS) results at the first interim analysis (IA1) were immature, with 104 of 427 (24%) events required for planned final OS analysis. Here, we report the results of a second pre-specified interim analysis (IA2).
METHODS
One thousand two hundred and seven patients with nmCRPC were randomized 2 : 1 to apalutamide (240 mg daily) or placebo. The primary end point of the study was MFS. Subsequent therapy for metastatic CRPC was permitted. When the primary end point was met, the study was unblinded. Patients receiving placebo who had not yet developed metastases were offered open-label apalutamide. At IA2, pre-specified analysis of OS was undertaken, using a group-sequential testing procedure with O'Brien-Fleming-type alpha spending function. Safety and second progression-free survival (PFS2) were assessed.
RESULTS
Median follow-up was 41 months. With 285 (67% of required) OS events, apalutamide was associated with an improved OS compared with placebo (HR 0.75; 95% CI 0.59-0.96; P = 0.0197), although the P-value did not cross the pre-specified O'Brien-Fleming boundary of 0.0121. Apalutamide improved PFS2 (HR 0.55; 95% CI 0.45-0.68). At IA2, 69% of placebo-treated and 40% of apalutamide-treated patients had received subsequent life-prolonging therapy for metastatic CRPC. No new safety signals were observed.
CONCLUSION
In patients with nmCRPC, apalutamide was associated with a 25% reduction in risk of death compared with placebo. This OS benefit was observed despite crossover of placebo-treated patients and higher rates of subsequent life-prolonging therapy for the placebo group.",2019,Apalutamide improved PFS2 (HR 0.55; 95% CI 0.45-0.68).,"['One thousand two hundred and seven patients with nmCRPC', 'non-metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer', 'patients with high-risk non-metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (nmCRPC']","['placebo', 'placebo, apalutamide added to ongoing androgen deprivation therapy', 'apalutamide']","['Apalutamide improved PFS2', 'Overall survival (OS', 'Safety and second progression-free survival (PFS2', 'risk of death', 'Apalutamide and overall survival']","[{'cui': 'C4517548', 'cui_str': 'One thousand two hundred'}, {'cui': 'C0205453', 'cui_str': '7'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C4721208', 'cui_str': 'Metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer'}, {'cui': 'C4319571', 'cui_str': 'High risk (qualifier value)'}]","[{'cui': 'C1696465', 'cui_str': 'placebo'}, {'cui': 'C4329353', 'cui_str': 'apalutamide'}, {'cui': 'C1720086', 'cui_str': 'Add - dosing instruction fragment'}, {'cui': 'C0279492', 'cui_str': 'Androgen deprivation therapy (procedure)'}]","[{'cui': 'C4329353', 'cui_str': 'apalutamide'}, {'cui': 'C0184511', 'cui_str': 'Improved (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0282416', 'cui_str': 'Overall'}, {'cui': 'C0220921', 'cui_str': 'survival'}, {'cui': 'C0036043', 'cui_str': 'Safety'}, {'cui': 'C0457385', 'cui_str': 'Seconds (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0242792', 'cui_str': 'Progression-Free Survival'}, {'cui': 'C0035647', 'cui_str': 'Risk'}, {'cui': 'C0011065', 'cui_str': 'Death'}]",1207.0,0.43351,Apalutamide improved PFS2 (HR 0.55; 95% CI 0.45-0.68).,"[{'ForeName': 'E J', 'Initials': 'EJ', 'LastName': 'Small', 'Affiliation': 'Helen Diller Family Comprehensive Cancer Center, University of California San Francisco, San Francisco, CA, USA.

517,31277077,Cardiorespiratory behavior of preterm infants receiving continuous positive airway pressure and high flow nasal cannula post extubation: randomized crossover study.,"BACKGROUND
Nasal continuous positive airway pressure (NCPAP) and high flow nasal cannula (HFNC) are modes of non-invasive respiratory support commonly used after extubation in extremely preterm infants. However, the cardiorespiratory physiology of these infants on each mode is unknown.
METHODS
Prospective, randomized crossover study in infants with birth weight ≤1250 g undergoing their first extubation attempt. NCPAP and HFNC were applied randomly for 45 min each, while ribcage and abdominal movements, electrocardiogram, oxygen saturation, and fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO 2 ) were recorded. Respiratory signals were analyzed using an automated method, and differences between NCPAP and HFNC features and changes in FiO 2 were analyzed.
RESULTS
A total of 30 infants with median [interquartile range] gestational age of 27 weeks [25.7, 27.9] and birth weight of 930 g [780, 1090] were studied. Infants were extubated at 5 days [2, 13] of life with 973 g [880, 1170] and three failed (10%). No differences in cardiorespiratory behavior were noted, except for longer respiratory pauses (9.2 s [5.0, 11.5] vs. 7.3 s [4.6, 9.3]; p = 0.04) and higher FiO 2 levels (p = 0.02) during HFNC compared to NCPAP.

On each occasion, participants ate a homogenous mixed-macronutrient meal (pizza). On one occasion, they ate until 'comfortably full' (ad libitum) and on the other, until they 'could not eat another bite' (maximal). Mean energy intake was double in the maximal (13 024 (95 % CI 10 964, 15 084) kJ; 3113 (95 % CI 2620, 3605) kcal) compared with the ad libitum trial (6627 (95 % CI 5708, 7547) kJ; 1584 (95 % CI 1364, 1804) kcal). Serum insulin incremental AUC (iAUC) increased approximately 1·5-fold in the maximal compared with ad libitum trial (mean: ad libitum 43·8 (95 % CI 28·3, 59·3) nmol/l × 240 min and maximal 67·7 (95 % CI 47·0, 88·5) nmol/l × 240 min, P < 0·01), but glucose iAUC did not differ between trials (ad libitum 94·3 (95 % CI 30·3, 158·2) mmol/l × 240 min and maximal 126·5 (95 % CI 76·9, 176·0) mmol/l × 240 min, P = 0·19).

519,29898870,"Subtype C ALVAC-HIV and bivalent subtype C gp120/MF59 HIV-1 vaccine in low-risk, HIV-uninfected, South African adults: a phase 1/2 trial.","BACKGROUND
Modest efficacy was reported for the HIV vaccine tested in the RV144 trial, which comprised a canarypox vector (ALVAC) and envelope (env) glycoprotein (gp120). These vaccine components were adapted to express HIV-1 antigens from strains circulating in South Africa, and the adjuvant was changed to increase immunogenicity. Furthermore, 12-month immunisation was added to improve durability. In the HIV Vaccine Trials Network (HVTN) 100 trial, we aimed to assess this new regionally adapted regimen for advancement to efficacy testing.
METHODS
HVTN 100 is a phase 1/2, randomised controlled, double-blind trial at six community research sites in South Africa. We randomly allocated adults (aged 18-40 years) without HIV infection and at low risk of HIV infection to either the vaccine regimen (intramuscular injection of ALVAC-HIV vector [vCP2438] at 0, 1, 3, 6, and 12 months plus bivalent subtype C gp120 and MF59 adjuvant at 3, 6, and 12 months) or placebo, in a 5:1 ratio. Randomisation was done by computer-generated list. Participants, investigators, and those assessing outcomes were masked to random assignments. Primary outcomes included safety and immune responses associated with correlates of HIV risk in RV144, 2 weeks after vaccination at 6 months (month 6·5). We compared per-protocol participants (ie, those who completed the first four vaccinations and provided samples at month 6·5) from HVTN 100 with stored RV144 samples assayed contemporaneously. This trial is registered with the South African National Clinical Trials Registry (DOH-27-0215-4796) and ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT02404311).
FINDINGS
Between Feb 9, 2015, and May 26, 2015, 252 participants were enrolled, of whom 210 were assigned vaccine and 42 placebo. 222 participants were included in the per-protocol analysis (185 vaccine and 37 placebo). 185 (100%) vaccine recipients developed IgG binding antibodies to all three vaccine-matched gp120 antigens with significantly higher titres (3·6-8·8 fold; all p<0·0001) than the corresponding vaccine-matched responses of RV144. The CD4+ T-cell response to the ZM96.C env protein in HVTN 100 was 56·4% (n=102 responders), compared with a response of 41·4% (n=79 responders) to 92TH023.AE in RV144 (p=0·0050). The IgG response to the 1086.C variable loops 1 and 2 (V1V2) env antigen in HVTN 100 was 70·5% (95% CI 63·5-76·6; n=129 responders), lower than the response to V1V2 in RV144 (99·0%, 95% CI 96·4-99·7; n=199 responders).
INTERPRETATION
Although the IgG response to the HVTN 100 vaccine was lower than that reported in RV144, it exceeded the predicted 63% threshold needed for 50% vaccine efficacy using a V1V2 correlate of protection model.

520,32247539,Remifentanil and perioperative glycaemic response in cardiac surgery: an open-label randomised trial.,"BACKGROUND
This study investigated whether remifentanil infusion decreased intraoperative hyperglycaemia and insulin resistance compared with intermittent fentanyl administration in patients undergoing elective cardiac surgery.
METHODS
This was a randomised, prospective, open-label trial. Patients undergoing elective cardiac surgery (n=116) were randomised to receive either continuous intravenous remifentanil infusion or intermittent fentanyl boluses. Hourly blood glucose values were obtained for 24 h starting from induction of anaesthesia. The difference in percentage of patients with ≥2 intraoperative blood glucose concentrations >10 mM (180 mg dl -1 ) between the groups was the primary outcome measure. Secondary outcome measures included insulin requirements, select stress hormone and inflammatory cytokine concentrations, and safety events and adverse outcomes.
RESULTS
The trial included 106 subjects in the final intention-to-treat analysis. There were fewer patients with ≥2 intraoperative blood glucose values >10 mM (180 mg dl -1 ) in the remifentanil group (17 [31.5%]) compared with the fentanyl group (33 [63.5%]) (relative risk: 0.50; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.32-0.77; P=0.001). The administered intraoperative insulin was a median of 8.1 units (range: 0-46.7) in the fentanyl group and 2.9 units (range: 0-35.1) in the remifentanil group (median difference=5 units; 95% CI: 1-7; P=0.004). Cortisol and adrenocorticotropic hormone were increased less in the remifentanil group (P<0.001), but there was no relative decrease in this group in select inflammatory cytokines. Postoperative measures of glycaemic control and adverse clinical outcomes were not significantly different between groups.
CONCLUSIONS
Compared with patients treated with intermittent fentanyl, patients receiving continuous remifentanil infusion had fewer episodes of hyperglycaemia and less need for insulin administration during the intraoperative period of cardiac surgery.

521,32248243,GAD-alum immunotherapy in type 1 diabetes expands bifunctional Th1/Th2 autoreactive CD4 T cells.,"AIMS/HYPOTHESIS
Antigen-specific therapy aims to modify inflammatory T cell responses in type 1 diabetes and restore immune tolerance. One strategy employs GAD65 conjugated to aluminium hydroxide (GAD-alum) to take advantage of the T helper (Th)2-biasing adjuvant properties of alum and thereby regulate pathological Th1 autoimmunity. We explored the cellular and molecular mechanism of GAD-alum action in the setting of a previously reported randomised placebo-controlled clinical trial conducted by Type 1 Diabetes TrialNet.
METHODS
In the clinical trial conducted by Type 1 Diabetes TrialNet, participants were immunised with 20 μg GAD-alum (twice or three times) or alum alone and peripheral blood mononuclear cell samples were banked at baseline and post treatment. In the present study, GAD-specific T cell responses were measured in these samples and GAD-specific T cell lines and clones were generated, which were then further characterised.
RESULTS
At day 91 post immunisation, we detected GAD-specific IL-13 + CD4 T cell responses significantly more frequently in participants immunised with GAD-alum (71% and 94% treated twice or three times, respectively) compared with those immunised with alum alone (38%; p = 0.003 and p = 0.0002, respectively) accompanied by high secreted levels of IL-13, IL-4 and IL-5, confirming a GAD-specific, GAD-alum-induced Th2 response. Of note, GAD-specific, IL-13 + CD4 T cells observed after immunisation co-secreted IFN-γ, displaying a bifunctional Th1/Th2 phenotype. Single-cell transcriptome analysis identified IL13 and IFNG expression in concert with the canonical Th2 and Th1 transcription factor genes GATA3 and TBX21, respectively. T cell receptor β-chain (TCRB) CDR3 regions of GAD-specific bifunctional T cells were identified in circulating naive and central memory CD4 T cell pools of non-immunised participants with new-onset type 1 diabetes and healthy individuals, suggesting the potential for bifunctional responses to be generated de novo by GAD-alum immunisation or via expansion from an existing public repertoire.
CONCLUSIONS/INTERPRETATION
GAD-alum immunisation activates and propagates GAD-specific CD4 T cells with a distinctive bifunctional phenotype, the functional analysis of which might be important in understanding therapeutic responses.",2020,"At day 91 post immunisation, we detected GAD-specific IL-13 + CD4 T cell responses significantly more frequently in participants immunised with GAD-alum (71% and 94% treated twice or three times, respectively) compared with those immunised with alum alone (38%;

522,30394918,The Effect of Propofol and Dexmedetomidine Sedation on Norepinephrine Requirements in Septic Shock Patients: A Crossover Trial.,"OBJECTIVES
Propofol-based sedation may increase hemodynamic instability by decreasing vascular tone and venous return. Incremental exogenous catecholamines doses may be required to counteract such effects, aggravating the deleterious effects of sympathetic overstimulation. α-2 adrenergic agonists have been reported to decrease norepinephrine requirements in experimental septic shock. The aim of the present study is to test the hypothesis that switching from sedation with propofol to the α-2 agonist dexmedetomidine may decrease norepinephrine doses in septic shock.
DESIGN
Prospective open-label crossover study.
SETTINGS
University hospital, ICU.
PATIENTS
Thirty-eight septic shock patients requiring norepinephrine to maintain adequate mean arterial pressure and needing deep sedation with propofol and remifentanil to maintain a Richmond Agitation-Sedation Scale score between -3 and -4.
INTERVENTIONS
An initial set of measurements including hemodynamics, norepinephrine doses, and depth of sedation were obtained during sedation with propofol. Propofol was then replaced by dexmedetomidine and a second set of data was obtained after 4 hours of dexmedetomidine infusion. Sedation was switched back to propofol, and a final set of measurements was obtained after 8 hours. A Richmond Agitation-Sedation Scale score between -3 and -4 was maintained during the study period.
MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS
Norepinephrine requirements decreased from 0.69 ± 0.72 μg/kg/min before dexmedetomidine to 0.30 ± 0.25 μg/kg/min 4 hours after dexmedetomidine infusion, increasing again to 0.42 ± 0.36 μg/kg/min while on propofol 8 hours after stopping dexmedetomidine (p < 0.005). Dexmedetomidine dosage was 0.7 ± 0.2 μg/kg/hr. Before and after dexmedetomidine infusion, sedative doses remained unchanged (propofol 2.6 ± 1.2 vs 2.6 ± 1.2 mg/kg/hr; p = 0.23 and remifentanil 1.27 ± 0.17 vs 1.27 ± 0.16 μg/kg/hr; p = 0.52, respectively). Richmond Agitation-Sedation Scale was -4 (-4 to -3) before, -4 (-4 to -3) during, and -4 (-4 to -4) after dexmedetomidine (p = 0.07).
CONCLUSIONS
For a comparable level of sedation, switching from propofol to dexmedetomidine resulted in a reduction of catecholamine requirements in septic shock patients.",2019,"For a comparable level of

Our objective was to evaluate the long-term efficacy, safety, and immunogenicity of the infliximab biosimilar, PF-06438179/GP1111 (PF-SZ-IFX), in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) who continued biosimilar treatment throughout 78 weeks or who switched from reference infliximab (Remicade ® ) sourced from the EU (IFX-EU) at week 30 or week 54 in the REFLECTIONS B537-02 study.
METHODS
In this phase III, double-blind, active-controlled study, patients with moderate-to-severe active RA were initially randomized to PF-SZ-IFX or IFX-EU, each with methotrexate (treatment period [TP] 1; N = 650). At week 30, patients receiving PF-SZ-IFX continued PF-SZ-IFX; patients receiving IFX-EU were re-randomized to continue IFX-EU or switch to PF-SZ-IFX (TP2; n = 566). From weeks 54 to 78, all patients received open-label treatment with PF-SZ-IFX (TP3; n = 505). Efficacy, safety, and immunogenicity data were analyzed during TP3.
RESULTS
Efficacy was sustained and comparable across groups at week 78, with American College of Rheumatology criteria for ≥ 20% clinical improvement response rates of 75.9% (biosimilar group), 77.8% (week 30 switch group), and 68.3% (week 54 switch group). The incidence of treatment-emergent adverse events was 28.9%, 29.4%, and 30.2%, respectively. The proportion of patients who were antidrug antibody (ADA) positive and neutralizing antibody positive (as a percentage of ADA-positive patients) was stable and comparable between groups.
CONCLUSIONS
Results to week 78 continue to support the efficacy, safety, and immunogenicity of PF-SZ-IFX in patients with moderate-to-severe active RA. There were no clinically meaningful differences between groups, independent of a single treatment transition from IFX-EU to PF-SZ-IFX at week 30 or week 54.

524,32249668,Cognitively Challenging Agility Boot Camp Program for Freezing of Gait in Parkinson Disease.,"Introduction . It is well documented that freezing of gait (FoG) episodes occur in situations that are mentally challenging, such as dual tasks, consistent with less automatic control of gait in people with Parkinson disease (PD) and FoG. However, most physical rehabilitation does not include such challenges. The purpose was to determine (1) feasibility of a cognitively challenging Agility Boot Camp-Cognitive (ABC-C) program and (2) effects of this intervention on FoG, dual-task cost, balance, executive function, and functional connectivity. Methods . A total of 46 people with PD and FoG enrolled in this randomized crossover trial. Each participant had 6 weeks of ABC-C and Education interventions. Outcome measures were the following: FoG, perceived and objective measures; dual-task cost on gait; balance; executive function; and right supplementary motor area (SMA)-pedunculopontine nucleus (PPN) functional connectivity. Effect sizes were calculated. Results . ABC-C had high compliance (90%), with a 24% dropout rate. Improvements after exercise, revealed by moderate and large effect sizes, were observed for subject perception of FoG after exercise, dual-task cost on gait speed, balance, cognition (Scales for Outcomes in Parkinson's disease-Cognition), and SMA-PPN connectivity. Conclusions . The ABC-C for people with PD and FoG is a feasible exercise program that has potential to improve FoG, balance, dual-task cost, executive function, and brain connectivity. The study provided effect sizes to help design future studies with more participants and longer duration to fully determine the potential to improve FoG.",2020,"The ABC-C for people with PD and FoG is a feasible exercise program that has potential to improve FoG, balance, dual-task cost, executive function, and brain connectivity.","['people with Parkinson disease (PD) and FoG', '46 people with PD and FoG enrolled']","['cognitively challenging Agility Boot Camp-Cognitive (ABC-C) program', 'Cognitively Challenging Agility Boot Camp Program']","['FoG, balance, dual-task cost, executive function, and brain connectivity', ""subject perception of FoG after exercise, dual-task cost on gait speed, balance, cognition (Scales for Outcomes in Parkinson's disease-Cognition), and SMA-PPN connectivity"", 'FoG, dual-task cost, balance, executive function, and functional connectivity', 'FoG, perceived and objective measures; dual-task cost on gait; balance; executive function; and right supplementary motor area (SMA)-pedunculopontine nucleus (PPN) functional connectivity']","[{'cui': 'C0027361', 'cui_str': 'Person'}, {'cui': 'C0030567', 'cui_str': ""Parkinson's disease""}, {'cui': 'C0450030', 'cui_str': 'Fog'}]","[{'cui': 'C0331794', 'cui_str': 'Boots'}, {'cui': 'C0001455', 'cui_str': 'Cyclic AMP'}, {'cui': 'C0152244', 'cui_str': 'Aneurysmal bone cyst'}, {'cui': 'C0018106', 'cui_str': 'Government Programs'}]","[{'cui': 'C0450030', 'cui_str': 'Fog'}, {'cui': 'C0014653', 'cui_str': 'Equilibrium'}, {'cui': 'C0205173', 'cui_str': 'Double'}, {'cui': 'C0010186', 'cui_str': 'Cost'}, {'cui': 'C0935584', 'cui_str': 'Executive Control'}, {'cui': 'C0006104', 'cui_str': 'Brain structure'}, {'cui': 'C0030971', 'cui_str': 'Perception'}, {'cui': 'C1979962', 'cui_str': 'After exercise'}, {'cui': 'C2009910', 'cui_str': 'Gait speed'}, {'cui': 'C0009240', 'cui_str': 'Cognitive Function'}, {'cui': 'C0175659', 'cui_str': 'Scale'}, {'cui': 'C1274040', 'cui_str': 'Result'}, {'cui': 'C0030567', 'cui_str': ""Parkinson's disease""}, {'cui': 'C0026847', 'cui_str': 'Spinal muscular atrophy'}, {'cui': 'C1527386', 'cui_str': 'Peripheral line feeding'}, {'cui': 'C0205245', 'cui_str': 'Functional'}, {'cui': 'C0018017', 'cui_str': 'Goal'}, {'cui': 'C0079809', 'cui_str': 'Measure'}, {'cui': 'C0016928', 'cui_str': 'Gait'}, {'cui': 'C0205090', 'cui_str': 'Right'}, {'cui': 'C3496174', 'cui_str': 'Supplementary Motor Area'}, {'cui': 'C0262306', 'cui_str': 'Nucleus Tegmentalis Pedunculopontinus'}]",46.0,0.0271566,"The ABC-C for people with PD and FoG is a feasible exercise program that has potential to improve FoG, balance, dual-task cost, executive function, and brain connectivity.","[{'ForeName': 'Laurie A', 'Initials': 'LA', 'LastName': 'King', 'Affiliation': 'Oregon Health & Science University, Portland, OR, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Martina', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Mancini', 'Affiliation': 'Oregon Health & Science University, Portland, OR, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Katrijn', 'Initials': 'K', 'LastName': 'Smulders', 'Affiliation': 'Oregon Health & Science University, Portland, OR, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Graham', 'Initials': 'G', 'LastName': 'Harker', 'Affiliation': 'Oregon Health & Science University, Portland, OR, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Jodi A', 'Initials': 'JA', 'LastName': 'Lapidus', 'Affiliation': 'Oregon Health & Science University, Portland, OR, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Katrina', 'Initials': 'K', 'LastName': 'Ramsey', 'Affiliation': 'Oregon Health & Science University, Portland, OR, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Patricia', 'Initials': 'P', 'LastName': 'Carlson-Kuhta', 'Affiliation': 'Oregon Health & Science University, Portland, OR, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Brett W', 'Initials': 'BW', 'LastName': 'Fling', 'Affiliation': 'Oregon Health & Science University, Portland, OR, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'John G', 'Initials': 'JG', 'LastName': 'Nutt', 'Affiliation': 'Oregon Health & Science University, Portland, OR, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Daniel S', 'Initials': 'DS', 'LastName': 'Peterson', 'Affiliation': 'Oregon Health & Science University, Portland, OR, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Fay B', 'Initials': 'FB', 'LastName': 'Horak', 'Affiliation': 'Oregon Health & Science University, Portland, OR, USA.'}]",Neurorehabilitation and neural repair,['10.1177/1545968320909331']
525,31977595,Brief Report: Virologic Response by Baseline Viral Load With Dolutegravir Plus Lamivudine vs Dolutegravir Plus Tenofovir Disoproxil Fumarate/Emtricitabine: Pooled Analysis.,"BACKGROUND
To investigate antiviral potency of the 2-drug regimen (2DR) dolutegravir plus lamivudine vs the 3-drug regimen (3DR) dolutegravir plus tenofovir disoproxil fumarate/emtricitabine, we performed a post-hoc analysis assessing antiviral response rates in the phase III GEMINI-1 and GEMINI-2 studies by baseline viral load (VL).
SETTING
One hundred ninety-two centers in 21 countries.
METHODS
Treatment-naive HIV-1-infected participants with screening VL ≤500,000 copies/mL were randomized 1:1 to once-daily dolutegravir plus lamivudine or dolutegravir plus tenofovir disoproxil fumarate/emtricitabine. Median change from baseline was determined for log10-transformed VL in the overall study population and the subpopulation with baseline VL >100,000 copies/mL. Proportion of participants achieving plasma VL <50 copies/mL (Snapshot algorithm) or <40 copies/mL (Abbott RealTime HIV-1 assay) and target not detected was assessed through week 48 by baseline VL. Time to viral suppression was determined (nonparametric Kaplan-Meier method).
RESULTS
For 293 participants with baseline VL >100,000 copies/mL, median change from baseline at week 4 was -3.38 and -3.40 log10 copies/mL in the 2DR and 3DR groups, respectively; reduction was sustained throughout 48 weeks. Time to VL <50 copies/mL was longer in participants with baseline VL >100,000 copies/mL than the overall study population (57 [week 8] vs 29 days [week 4]) and similar between the 2DR and 3DR groups. Proportion of participants with VL <50 or <40 copies/mL and target not detected was similar between groups, irrespective of baseline VL, at all tested visits throughout 48 weeks.

Biosimilars are highly similar to the licensed biologic (""reference product""), with no clinically meaningful differences in safety, purity, or potency between the two products.
OBJECTIVE
This comparative 52-week clinical study evaluated the efficacy, safety, immunogenicity, pharmacokinetics (PK), and pharmacodynamics (PD) of PF-05280586 (Ruxience™ [a rituximab biosimilar]) versus rituximab reference product sourced from the EU (MabThera ® ; rituximab-EU).
PATIENTS AND METHODS
Subjects with CD20-positive, low-tumor-burden follicular lymphoma (LTB-FL) and an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status 0-1 were randomized (1:1) to PF-05280586 or rituximab-EU (375 mg/m 2 intravenously [once weekly for 4 weeks at days 1, 8, 15, and 22]), stratified using the Follicular Lymphoma International Prognostic Index 2 classification. The primary endpoint was overall response rate (ORR) at week 26 (percentage of subjects achieving complete response [CR] or partial response [PR]). Therapeutic equivalence was concluded if the two-sided 95% confidence interval (CI) for the difference in ORR between groups was within the prespecified margin (± 16%). Secondary endpoints included progression-free survival (PFS), CR rate, safety, immunogenicity, PK, and PD.
RESULTS

ORR at week 26 was 75.5% (PF-05280586) versus 70.7% (rituximab-EU), for a difference of 4.66%; 95% CI (- 4.16 to 13.47), which was entirely within the prespecified equivalence margin. Rates of CR were 29.3% (PF-05280586) versus 31.0% (rituximab-EU). Estimated 1-year PFS rates were 78.2% (95% CI 70.2-84.2) and 83.0% (95% CI 75.0-88.6) for PF-05280586 and rituximab-EU, respectively. Safety, immunogenicity, and mean serum concentrations were similar between groups.
CONCLUSIONS
The efficacy, safety, immunogenicity, PK, and PD of PF-05280586 and rituximab-EU were similar up to week 52 in subjects with previously untreated CD20-positive LTB-FL.

527,32052313,"Pharmacokinetic Similarity and Comparative Pharmacodynamics, Safety, Efficacy, and Immunogenicity of DRL_RI Versus Reference Rituximab in Biologics-Naïve Patients with Moderate-to-Severe Rheumatoid Arthritis: A Double-Blind, Randomized, Three-Arm Study.","OBJECTIVES
The aims were to demonstrate pharmacokinetic (PK) similarity between DRL_RI, a proposed rituximab biosimilar, and two reference innovator products (Rituxan ® [RTX-US] and MabThera ® [RTX-EU]) and compare their pharmacodynamics (PD), efficacy, safety, and immunogenicity in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients with inadequate response to methotrexate (MTX)-based therapy and no prior biologic administration.
METHODS
In this randomized, double-blind, parallel-group study, 276 patients with moderate-to-severe active RA were randomized to receive DRL_RI, RTX-US, or RTX-EU on days 1 and 15. The primary PK end points included area under the concentration-time curve from time 0 to 336 h after first infusion (AUC 0-14 days, first infusion ), AUC from day 1 through week 16 (AUC 0-∞, entire course ), and AUC from time 0 to time of last quantifiable concentration after the second dose (AUC 0-t, second infusion ). Secondary end points included other PK parameters, such as maximum concentration (C max ), time to C max after each infusion, terminal half-life, systemic clearance, and volume of distribution after the second infusion; PD parameters and efficacy until week 24; safety and immunogenicity at week 24 and 52; and B cell recovery until week 52. AUC from time 0 to time of last quantifiable concentration after the first dose and over the entire course from day 1 through week 16 (AUC 0-t, entire course ) was analyzed as an exploratory end point.
RESULTS
The 91% confidence intervals (CIs) of the geometric mean ratios (GMRs) for the primary end point of AUC 0-∞, entire course were within the bioequivalence limits of 80-125% for all comparisons: DRL_RI versus RTX-US 100.37% (92.30-109.14), DRL_RI versus RTX-EU 93.58% (85.98-101.85), and RTX-US versus RTX-EU 93.24% (85.62-101.54). PD outcomes (peripheral blood B-cell depletion and mean change in Disease Activity Score [28 joints]-C-reactive protein), efficacy, safety, and immunogenicity were also comparable between DRL_RI and the reference products.
CONCLUSION
DRL_RI, a proposed biosimilar, demonstrated three-way PK similarity with RTX-EU and RTX-US, the reference innovator products, with comparable efficacy, PD, safety, and immunogenicity.

528,32109729,Low-cost self-paced interventions increase birth satisfaction in first time fathers.,"OBJECTIVE
This research aims to investigate whether a skills or birth stories intervention for fathers can improve birth satisfaction of fathers.
STUDY DESIGN
One hundred and seventy-four men were recruited and randomly assigned to a skills preparation group, a birth stories group, or a treatment as usual (TAU) group. One hundred sixteen men completed the three questionnaires relevant for this report (67% retention rate). Birth satisfaction was measured soon after birth.
MEASURES
Demographic data and data related to partners pregnancy, birth and preparation were collected. The Mackey Childbirth Satisfaction Rating Scale was the primary outcome measure.
RESULTS
It was found that men who received either of the birth preparation interventions (skills or birth stories booklet) had significantly higher birth satisfaction scores. An analysis found that, irrespective of intervention, his partner having an induction, a caesarean section, and his not being in full-time employment had a negative effect on birth satisfaction, while his partner having an epidural, his experiencing family life satisfaction before the birth, his finding antenatal classes useful, and having his birth delivery expectations met had a positive impact on birth satisfaction.
CONCLUSION
Increasing the father's understanding, role expectations, and preparation for his partner's childbirth, may be important for fathers birth satisfaction. Expectations around childbirth and expectations of himself might be better managed to improve satisfaction. This study found evidence that simple low-cost interventions can improve birth satisfaction for new fathers.",2020,"An analysis found that, irrespective of intervention, his partner having an induction, a caesarean section, and his not being in full-time employment had a negative effect on birth satisfaction, while his partner having an epidural, his experiencing family life satisfaction before the birth, his finding antenatal classes useful, and having his birth delivery expectations met had a positive impact on birth satisfaction.

529,31026056,Exposure to mild intermittent hypoxia increases loop gain and the arousal threshold in participants with obstructive sleep apnoea.,"KEY POINTS
Repeated daily mild intermittent hypoxia has been endorsed as a therapy to promote the recovery of respiratory and limb motor dysfunction. One possible side-effect of this therapy is an increase in apnoeic event number and duration, which is particularly relevant to participants with motor disorders coupled with an increased incidence of sleep apnoea. In this study, we report that increases in apnoeic event number and duration, following exposure to daily intermittent hypoxia, are the result of an increase in respiratory loop gain and the arousal threshold, in participants with obstructive sleep apnoea. Daily exposure to mild intermittent hypoxia also led to an increase in the ventilatory response to arousal. Accordingly, individuals with motor disorders receiving mild intermittent hypoxia as a therapy should be screened for the presence of sleep apnoea, and if present, administration of intermittent hypoxia during hours of wakefulness should be combined with continuous positive airway pressure treatment during sleep.
ABSTRACT
We determined if exposure to mild intermittent hypoxia (MIH) causes an increase in loop gain (LG) and the arousal threshold (AT) during non-rapid eye movement (NREM) sleep. Male participants with obstructive sleep apnoea (apnoea-hypopnoea index > 5 events/h), matched for age, body mass index and race were divided into two groups (n = 13 in each group). Following a baseline sleep study, one group was exposed to twelve 4-min episodes of hypoxia each day for 10 days and the other group to a sham protocol (SP). On Days 1 and 10, a sleep study was completed following exposure to MIH or the SP. For each sleep study, LG and the AT were measured during NREM sleep, using a model-based approach, and expressed as a fraction of baseline measures. LG increased after exposure to MIH (Day 1: 1.11 ± 0.03, P = 0.002, Day 10: 1.17 ± 0.05, P = 0.001), but not after the SP (Day 1: 1.03 ± 0.04, P = 1.0, Day 10: 1.0 ± 0.02, P = 1.0). AT also increased after exposure to MIH (Day 1: 1.13 ± 0.05, P = 0.01, Day 10: 1.19 ± 0.08, P = 0.05) but not after the SP (Day 1: 1.04 ± 0.05, P = 0.6, Day 10: 0.96 ± 0.04, P = 1.0). Our results might account for increases in apnoea frequency and duration previously observed during NREM sleep following exposure to MIH. Our results also have implications for the use of MIH as a therapeutic modality.",2019,"AT also increased after exposure to MIH (Day 1: 1.13 ± 0.05, P = 0.01, Day 10: 1.19 ± 0.08, P = 0.05) but not after the SP (Day 1: 1.04 ± 0.05, P = 0.6, Day 10: 0.96 ± 0.04, P = 1.0).","['participants with motor disorders', 'individuals with motor disorders receiving mild intermittent hypoxia', 'Male participants with obstructive sleep apnoea (apnoea-hypopnoea index >\xa05\xa0events/h), matched for age, body mass index and race', 'participants with obstructive sleep apnoea']",[],"['LG', 'ventilatory response to arousal']","[{'cui': 'C0221163', 'cui_str': 'Motor Disorders'}, {'cui': 'C0237401', 'cui_str': 'Individual (person)'}, {'cui': 'C2945599', 'cui_str': 'Mild (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0205267', 'cui_str': 'Intermittent (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0242184', 'cui_str': 'Hypoxia'}, {'cui': 'C0086582', 'cui_str': 'Males'}, {'cui': 'C0520679', 'cui_str': 'Syndrome, Sleep Apnea, Obstructive'}, {'cui': 'C2111846', 'cui_str': 'Apnea-hypopnea index'}, {'cui': 'C0439084', 'cui_str': '>5 (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0441471', 'cui_str': 'Event (event)'}, {'cui': 'C0336766', 'cui_str': 'Matches'}, {'cui': 'C0001792', 'cui_str': 'Elderly'}, {'cui': 'C0005893', 'cui_str': 'Body mass index'}, {'cui': 'C3853635', 'cui_str': 'Race (observable entity)'}]",[],"[{'cui': 'C0003808', 'cui_str': 'Arousal'}]",,0.0436555,"AT also increased after exposure to MIH (Day 1: 1.13 ± 0.05, P = 0.01, Day 10: 1.19 ± 0.08, P = 0.05) but not after the SP (Day 1: 1.04 ± 0.05, P = 0.6, Day 10: 0.96 ± 0.04, P = 1.0).","[{'ForeName': 'Raichel M', 'Initials': 'RM', 'LastName': 'Alex', 'Affiliation': 'John D.

530,32245745,Long term skeletal and dental changes between tooth-anchored versus Dresden bone-anchored rapid maxillary expansion using CBCT images in adolescents: Randomized clinical trial.,"OBJECTIVE
The aim of this study was to determine long-term skeletal and dental changes in tooth-anchored versus Dresden bone-anchored rapid maxillary expansion using CBCT images in adolescents.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
In all, 29 adolescent patients (11-17 years of age) needing skeletal expansion were randomly allocated to two different groups treated by either a Dresden bone-anchored expander or a conventional hyrax expander. Patients included did not have previous orthodontic treatment, were non-syndromic and had all teeth present in mouth. CBCT images were taken before expansion and two or more years after expansion. An independent T-test was used to determine the statistical significance between treatment groups and paired T-test was used to compare the results before and after expansion in each group.
RESULTS
Neither treatment group showed overall long-term different skeletal and dental changes in the transverse, anterior-posterior and vertical planes (P<0.05). Both treatment groups showed mild asymmetric skeletal expansion, but these were clinically insignificant.

531,32176703,"The safety of combined triple drug therapy with ivermectin, diethylcarbamazine and albendazole in the neglected tropical diseases co-endemic setting of Fiji: A cluster randomised trial.","Lymphatic filariasis has remained endemic in Fiji despite repeated mass drug administration using the well-established and safe combination of diethylcarbamazine and albendazole (DA) since 2002. In certain settings the addition of ivermectin to this combination (IDA) remains a safe strategy and is more efficacious. However, the safety has yet to be described in scabies and soil-transmitted helminth endemic settings like Fiji. Villages of Rotuma and Gau islands were randomised to either DA or IDA. Residents received weight-based treatment unblinded with standard exclusions. Participants were actively found and asked by a nurse about their health daily for the first two days and then asked to seek review for the next five days if unwell. Anyone with severe symptoms were reviewed by a doctor and any serious adverse event was reported to the Medical Monitor and Data Safety Monitoring Board. Of 3612 enrolled and eligible participants, 1216 were randomised to DA and 2396 to IDA. Age and sex in both groups were representative of the population. Over 99% (3598) of participants completed 7 days follow-up. Adverse events were reported by 600 participants (16.7%), distributed equally between treatment groups, with most graded as mild (93.2%). There were three serious adverse events, all judged not attributable to treatment by an independent medical monitor. Fatigue was the most common symptom reported by 8.5%, with headache, dizziness, nausea and arthralgia being the next four most common symptoms. Adverse events were more likely in participants with microfilaremia (43.2% versus 15.7%), but adverse event frequency was not related to the presence of scabies or soil-transmitted helminth infection.

The interstitial lung diseases include a variety of disorders, many of which are characterized by fibrotic changes (fILD). Of the fILDs, Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis is the most common. Pulmonary hypertension (PH) frequently complicates fILD and is associated with impaired functional capability, lower physical activity, and significantly reduced life expectancy. There is no proven treatment for patients with fILD-PH. We report results from the first cohort of a phase 2b/3 trial with pulsed inhaled nitric oxide (iNO) in patients with fILD-PH.
METHODS
Subjects in cohort 1 were randomized to iNO 30 μg/kg ideal body weight/hr (iNO30) or placebo for 8 weeks of blinded treatment; subjects then transitioned to open-label extension (OLE) on iNO30 followed by dose escalation to iNO45 then iNO75. Activity monitoring was used to assess changes in daily activity. Safety and efficacy were evaluated.
RESULTS
Twenty-three patients were randomized to iNO30 and 18 to placebo. During blinded treatment, iNO30 subjects showed an average improvement in moderate/vigorous physical activity (MVPA) and remained stable in overall activity. Placebo subjects showed an average drop of 26% in MVPA and a 12% drop in overall activity. The iNO group had an improvement in oxygen saturation. During OLE, subjects maintained their activity levels including placebo subjects who transitioned from a decline to a maintenance in all activity parameters. Inhaled nitric oxide at all doses (30, 45, and 75) was safe and well tolerated.
CONCLUSIONS

This study evaluated the effects of long-term Tai Chi (TC) practice on the complexity of HR dynamics using an observational comparison of TC experts and age- and gender-matched TC-naïve individuals. Shorter-term effects of TC were assessed by randomly assigning TC-naïve participants to either TC group to receive six months of TC training or to a waitlist control group. 23 TC experts (age = 63.3 ± 8.0 y; 24.6 ± 12.0 y TC experience) and 52 TC-naïve (age = 64.3 ± 7.7 y) were enrolled. In cross-sectional analyses, TC experts had a higher overall complexity index (CI, p = 0.004) and higher entropy at multiple individual time scales (p < 0.05); these findings persisted in models accounting for age, gender, body mass index (BMI), and physical activity levels. Longitudinal changes in complexity index did not differ significantly following random assignment to six months of TC vs. a waitlist control; however, within the TC group, complexity at select time scales showed statistically non-significant trends toward increases.

534,32240532,Is Protocolised Weaning that Includes Early Extubation Onto Non-Invasive Ventilation More Cost Effective Than Protocolised Weaning Without Non-Invasive Ventilation? Findings from the Breathe Study.,"BACKGROUND
Optimising techniques to wean patients from invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV) remains a key goal of intensive care practice. The use of non-invasive ventilation (NIV) as a weaning strategy (transitioning patients who are difficult to wean to early NIV) may reduce mortality, ventilator-associated pneumonia and intensive care unit (ICU) length of stay.
OBJECTIVES
Our objectives were to determine the cost effectiveness of protocolised weaning, including early extubation onto NIV, compared with weaning without NIV in a UK National Health Service setting.
METHODS
We conducted an economic evaluation alongside a multicentre randomised controlled trial. Patients were randomised to either protocol-directed weaning from mechanical ventilation or ongoing IMV with daily spontaneous breathing trials. The primary efficacy outcome was time to liberation from ventilation. Bivariate regression of costs and quality-adjusted life-years (QALYs) provided estimates of the incremental cost per QALY and incremental net monetary benefit (INMB) overall and for subgroups [presence/absence of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and operative status]. Long-term cost effectiveness was determined through extrapolation of survival curves using flexible parametric modelling.
RESULTS
NIV was associated with a mean INMB of £620 ($US885) (cost-effectiveness threshold of £20,000 per QALY) with a corresponding probability of 58% that NIV is cost effective. The probability that NIV is cost effective was higher for those with COPD (84%). NIV was cost effective over 5 years, with an estimated incremental cost-effectiveness ratio of £4618 ($US6594 per QALY gained).
CONCLUSIONS
The probability of NIV being cost effective relative to weaning without NIV ranged between 57 and 59% overall and between 82 and 87% for the COPD subgroup.",2020,"NIV was cost effective over 5 years, with an estimated incremental cost-effectiveness ratio of £4618 ($US6594 per QALY gained).

Complex PCI was defined as any of the following: 3 vessels treated, ≥3 lesions treated, total stent length >60 mm, bifurcation with 2 stents implanted, atherectomy device use, left main PCI, surgical bypass graft or chronic total occlusion as target lesions. Bleeding and ischemic endpoints were evaluated at 1 year after randomization.
RESULTS
Among 7,119 patients randomized in the main trial, complex PCI was performed in 2,342 patients. Compared to ticagrelor plus aspirin, ticagrelor plus placebo resulted in significantly lower rates of Bleeding Academic Research Consortium (BARC) type 2, 3, or 5 bleeding (4.2% vs. 7.7%; hazard ratio [HR]: 0.54; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.38 to 0.76). BARC type 3 or 5 bleeding was also significantly reduced (1.1% vs. 2.6%; HR: 0.41; 95% CI: 0.21 to 0.80). There were no significant between-group differences in death, myocardial infarction, or stroke (3.8% vs. 4.9%; HR: 0.77; 95% CI: 0.52 to 1.15), nor in stent thrombosis.
CONCLUSIONS
Among patients undergoing complex PCI who initially completed 3 months of ticagrelor plus aspirin, continuation of ticagrelor monotherapy was associated with lower incidence of bleeding without increasing the risk of ischemic events compared to continuing ticagrelor plus aspirin.

536,32236533,Effect of Intensivist Communication in a Simulated Setting on Interpretation of Prognosis Among Family Members of Patients at High Risk of Intensive Care Unit Admission: A Randomized Trial.,"Importance
Discordance about prognosis between a patient's health care decision-making surrogate and the treating intensivist is common in the intensive care unit (ICU). Empowering families, friends, and caregivers of patients who are critically ill to make informed decisions about care is important, but it is unclear how best to communicate prognostic information to surrogates when a patient is expected to die.
Objective
To determine whether family members, who are often health care decision-making surrogates, interpret intensivists as being more optimistic when questions about prognosis in the ICU are answered indirectly.
Design, Setting, and Participants
This web-based randomized trial was conducted between September 27, 2019, and October 17, 2019, among a national sample of adult children, spouses, partners, or siblings of people with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease who were receiving long-term oxygen therapy. Participants were shown video vignettes depicting an intensivist answering a standardized question about the prognosis of a patient at high risk of death on day 3 of ICU admission. Participants were excluded if they had worked as a physician, nurse, or advanced health care practitioner. Data were analyzed from October 18, 2019, to November 12, 2019.
Interventions
Participants were randomized to view 1 of 4 intensivist communication styles in response to the question ""What do you think is most likely to happen?"": (1) a direct response (control), (2) an indirect response comparing the patient's condition with that of other patients, (3) an indirect response describing the patient's deteriorating physiological condition, or (4) redirection to a discussion of the patient's values and goals.
Main Outcomes and Measures
Participant responses to 2 questions: (1) ""If you had to guess, what do you think the doctor thinks is the chance that your loved one will survive this hospitalization?"" and (2) ""What do you think are the chances that your loved one will survive this hospitalization?"" answered using a 0% to 100% probability scale.
Results
Among 302 participants (median [interquartile range] age, 49 [38-59] years; 204 [68%] women) included in the trial, 165 (55%) were adult children of the individual with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease; 77 participants were randomized to view a direct response, 77 participants were randomized to view an indirect response referencing other patients, 68 participants were randomized to view an indirect response referencing physiological condition, and 80 participants were randomized to view a redirection response. Compared with participants who viewed a direct response, participants who viewed an indirect response referencing other patients (β = 10 [95% CI, 1-19]; P = .03), physiological condition (β = 10 [95% CI, 0-19]; P = .04), or redirection to a discussion of the patient's values and goals (β = 19 [95% CI, 10-28]; P < .001) perceived the intensivist to have a significantly more optimistic prognostic estimate.
Conclusions and Relevance
These findings suggest that family members interpret indirect or redirection responses to questions about prognosis in the ICU setting as more optimistic than direct responses.

537,32245569,"Intravenous sildenafil citrate and post-cardiac surgery acute kidney injury: a double-blind, randomised, placebo-controlled trial.","BACKGROUND
This study assessed whether i.v. sildenafil citrate prevented acute kidney injury in at-risk patients undergoing cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass.
METHODS
In a double-blind RCT, adults at increased risk of acute kidney injury undergoing cardiac surgery in a single UK tertiary centre were randomised to receive sildenafil citrate 12.5 mg kg -1 i.v. over 150 min or dextrose 5% at the commencement of surgery. The primary outcome was serum creatinine measured at six post-randomisation time points. The primary analysis used a linear mixed-effects model adjusted for the stratification variables, baseline estimated glomerular filtration rate, and surgical procedure. Secondary outcomes considered clinical events and potential disease mechanisms. Effect estimates were expressed as mean differences (MDs) or odds ratios with 95% confidence intervals.
RESULTS
The analysis population comprised eligible randomised patients that underwent valve surgery or combined coronary artery bypass graft and valve surgery, with cardiopulmonary bypass, between May 2015 and June 2018. There were 60 subjects in the sildenafil group and 69 in the placebo control group. The difference between groups in creatinine concentration was not statistically significant (MD: 0.88 μmol L -1 [-5.82, 7.59]). There was a statistically significant increase in multiple organ dysfunction scores in the sildenafil group (MD: 0.54 [0.02, 1.07]; P=0.044). Secondary outcomes, and biomarkers of kidney injury, endothelial function, and inflammatory cell activation, were not significantly different between the groups.
CONCLUSIONS
These results do not support the use of i.v. sildenafil citrate for kidney protection in adult cardiac surgery.

538,31853772,Use of Rapid HIV Self-Test to Screen Potential Sexual Partners: Results of the ISUM Study.,"ISUM (""I'll show you mine"") was a randomized controlled trial in which 272 transgender women and men who have sex with men in New York, NY (NYC) and San Juan, Puerto Rico (SJU) were assigned to an intervention group (n = 136), in which they had access to free HIV self-testing (ST) kits, or to a control group (n = 136). The trial aimed to determine whether the intervention group would use ST to screen sexual partners and have fewer condomless anal intercourse (CAI) occasions with serodiscordant or unknown status partners than the control group.

539,32235946,The efficacy of vestibular rehabilitation in patients with chronic unilateral vestibular dysfunction.,"OBJECTIVES
Vestibular rehabilitation leads to a gradual diminution of the subjective and objective symptoms that accompany the vestibular disorders. The aim of the study was to compare the impact of 2 different types of vestibular rehabilitation on vestibular compensation in patients with chronic unilateral vestibular dysfunction.
MATERIAL AND METHODS
The study was conducted on a group of 58 subjects (43 females and 15 males) aged 40-64 years, who presented with chronic unilateral vestibular dysfunction and were hospitalized. The patients were randomly assigned to either of the 2 groups established. The study was conducted in a 6-week period. Group 1 consisted of patients who underwent customized group vestibular rehabilitation in an outpatient setting. The program was performed once a week for 1 h 30 min, under the supervision of a physiotherapist and a physiatrist. Group 2 was instructed to perform Cawthorne-Cooksey exercises and simple balance exercises twice a day for 15 min.
RESULTS
An improvement in the outcomes of the Dynamic Gait Index as well as the Berg Balance Scale was statistically significant for group 1. The time for fulfilling the task in the Timed Up and Go Test improved in both groups (p < 0.05). The subjective estimation of the symptoms evaluated with the use of the Dizziness Handicap Inventory and the Visual Analogue Scale revealed a statistically significant improvement in both groups, yet it was higher in group 1.
CONCLUSIONS
The compensation achieved after 6 weeks of the customized, supervised outpatient rehabilitation program in group 1 was superior to the results of the home-based unsupervised Cawthorne-Cooksey and balance exercises.

540,32237005,A behavioral economics-based telehealth intervention to improve aspirin adherence following hospitalization for acute coronary syndrome.,"PURPOSE
A significant number of patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) are nonadherent to aspirin after hospital discharge, with an associated increased risk of subsequent cardiovascular events. The purpose of this pilot study was to test the efficacy of a telehealth intervention based on behavioral economics to improve aspirin adherence following hospitalization for ACS.
METHODS
We enrolled 130 participants (c¯X = 58 ± 10.7 years of age, 38% female, 45% black) from two hospitals. Patients were eligible if they owned a smartphone and were admitted to the hospital for ACS, prescribed aspirin at discharge, and responsible for administering their own medications. Consenting participants were randomized to the intervention or usual care group. The intervention group was eligible to receive up to $50 per month if they took their medicine daily, with $2 per day deducted if a dose was missed. All participants received an electronic monitoring (EM) pill bottle containing a 90-day supply of aspirin, which was used to measure adherence calculated as the proportion of prescribed drug taken using the EM device. Based on the skewness in the adherence distribution, quantile regression was used to evaluate the effect of the intervention on median adherence over time.
RESULTS
After 90 days, adherence fell in the control group but remained high in the intervention group (median adherence 81% vs 90%, P = .18). Rehospitalization was higher in the control group (24% vs 13%, P = .17).
CONCLUSION
A loss aversion behavioral economics-based telehealth intervention is a promising approach to improving aspirin adherence following hospitalization for ACS.",2020,"Rehospitalization was higher in the control group (24% vs 13%, P = .17).

541,32236675,Multivariable Regression Analysis of Clinical Data from the Randomized-Controlled EffPac Trial: Efficacy of Femoropopliteal Drug-Coated Balloon Angioplasty.,"PURPOSE
The post-hoc multivariable analysis of EffPac study data aimed to identify explanatory variables for efficacy of femoropopliteal artery angioplasty.
METHODS
In the prospective, randomized, controlled EffPac study, patients were allocated to either DCB or plain old balloon angioplasty. Multivariable regression including interaction analysis was conducted to assess the impact of selected variables on the outcome measures of late lumen loss (LLL) at 6 months, and on binary restenosis, target lesion revascularization (TLR), clinical improvement, and hemodynamic improvement at 12 months.
RESULTS
A total of 171 patients (69 ± 8 years, 111 men) were treated at 11 German centers. Hypertension increased, and advanced age decreased LLL (B coefficient [B]: 0.7 [95% CI - 0.04 to 1.3], p = 0.06 and - 0.3 per 10 years [95% CI - 0.5 to 0.01], p = 0.06, respectively). DCB angioplasty decreased odds of 12-month TLR and binary restenosis (OR 0.4 [95% CI 0.2 to 0.8], p = 0.01 and OR 0.1 [95% CI 0.01 to 0.6], p = 0.02, respectively). Lesion length and severe calcification decreased clinical improvement (B: - 0.1 per 10 mm [95% CI - 0.1 to - 0.03], p = 0.001 and - 0.1 [95% CI - 1.7 to - 0.1], p = 0.03, respectively). DCB angioplasty in former smokers improved ABI (0.2 [95% CI 0.01 to 0.5], p = 0.04).
CONCLUSION

542,32172522,Neuroprotective Role of Oral Vitamin D Supplementation on Consciousness and Inflammatory Biomarkers in Determining Severity Outcome in Acute Traumatic Brain Injury Patients: A Double-Blind Randomized Clinical Trial.,"BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE
Early management of traumatic brain injury (TBI) is essential. We aimed to evaluate the efficacy of vitamin D over early clinical outcome and serum cytokine levels in patients with moderate to severe brain injury.
METHODS
Thirty-five patients with moderate to severe traumatic brain injury who were admitted to the ICU unit were recruited into the study. Subjects were randomly allocated to a treatment regimen comprising either a one-time oral dose of 120,000 IU (two tablets of 60,000 IU each) of vitamin D (n = 20) or 8 mg of saccharide (two tablets of 4 g each) as placebo (n = 15). The main parameters evaluated included duration of mechanical ventilation and ICU stay, Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) and cytokine levels (interleukin (IL)-6, tumour necrosis factor (TNF)-α, interferon (IFN)-γ, IL-2).
RESULTS
The results indicated an improvement in the level of consciousness after 7 days in the vitamin D-treated group compared with placebo. An elevation in GCS score by 3.86 units in the vitamin D-treated group with a 0.19-unit descent in the control group was recorded. Duration of mechanical ventilation was reduced in the vitamin D-treated group compared with the control group (4.7 days vs. 8.2 days, p value 0.0001). A noticeable reduction was recorded in inflammatory biomarkers (cytokines) in the vitamin D-treated group (IL-6 p = 0.08, TNF-α p = 0.02, IL-2 p = 0.36) with notable elevation in IFN-γ (p = 0.65) compared to the control group.
CONCLUSION

543,32240760,Ticagrelor With or Without Aspirin in High-Risk Patients With Diabetes Mellitus Undergoing Percutaneous Coronary Intervention.,"BACKGROUND
P2Y 12 inhibitor monotherapy with ticagrelor after a brief period of dual antiplatelet therapy can reduce bleeding without increasing ischemic harm after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). The impact of this approach among patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) remains unknown.
OBJECTIVES
The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of ticagrelor monotherapy versus ticagrelor plus aspirin among patients with DM undergoing PCI.
METHODS
This was a pre-specified analysis of the DM cohort in the TWILIGHT (Ticagrelor With Aspirin or Alone in High-Risk Patients after Coronary Intervention) trial. After 3 months of ticagrelor plus aspirin, patients were maintained on ticagrelor and randomized to aspirin or placebo for 1 year. The primary endpoint was Bleeding Academic Research Consortium 2, 3, or 5 bleeding. The composite ischemic endpoint was all-cause death, myocardial infarction, or stroke.
RESULTS
Patients with DM comprised 37% (n = 2,620) of the randomized cohort and were characterized by more frequent comorbidities and a higher prevalence of multivessel disease. The incidence of Bleeding Academic Research Consortium 2, 3, or 5 bleeding was 4.5% and 6.7% among patients with DM randomized to ticagrelor plus placebo versus ticagrelor plus aspirin (hazard ratio: 0.65; 95% confidence interval: 0.47 to 0.91; p = 0.012). Ticagrelor monotherapy was not associated with an increase in ischemic events compared with ticagrelor plus aspirin (4.6% vs. 5.9%; hazard ratio: 0.77; 95% confidence interval: 0.55 to 1.09; p = 0.14). In the overall trial population, there was no significant interaction between DM status and treatment group for the primary bleeding or ischemic endpoints.
CONCLUSIONS
Compared with ticagrelor plus aspirin, the effect of ticagrelor monotherapy in reducing the risk of clinically relevant bleeding without any increase in ischemic events was consistent among patients with or without DM undergoing PCI.

544,31607468,Hepcidin-guided screen-and-treat interventions against iron-deficiency anaemia in pregnancy: a randomised controlled trial in The Gambia.,"BACKGROUND
WHO recommends daily iron supplementation for pregnant women, but adherence is poor because of side-effects, effectiveness is low, and there are concerns about possible harm. The iron-regulatory hormone hepcidin can signal when an individual is ready-and-safe to receive iron. We tested whether a hepcidin-guided screen-and-treat approach to combat iron-deficiency anaemia could achieve equivalent efficacy to universal administration, but with lower exposure to iron.
METHODS
We did a three-arm, randomised, double-blind, non-inferiority trial in 19 rural communities in the Jarra West and Kiang East districts of The Gambia. Eligible participants were pregnant women aged 18-45 years at between 14 weeks and 22 weeks of gestation. We randomly allocated women to either WHO's recommended regimen (ie, a daily UN University, UNICEF, and WHO international multiple-micronutrient preparation [UNIMMAP] containing 60 mg iron), a 60 mg screen-and-treat approach (ie, daily UNIMMAP containing 60 mg iron for 7 days if weekly hepcidin was <2·5 μg/L or UNIMMAP without iron if hepcidin was ≥2·5 μg/L), or a 30 mg screen-and-treat approach (ie, daily UNIMMAP containing 30 mg iron for 7 days if weekly hepcidin was <2·5 μg/L or UNIMMAP without iron if hepcidin was ≥2·5 μg/L). We used a block design stratified by amount of haemoglobin at enrolment (above and below the median amount of haemoglobin on every enrolment day) and stage of gestation (14-18 weeks vs 19-22 weeks). Participants and investigators were unaware of the random allocation. The primary outcome was the amount of haemoglobin at day 84 and was measured as the difference in haemoglobin in each screen-and-treat group compared with WHO's recommended regimen; the non-inferiority margin was set at -5·0 g/L. The primary outcome was assessed in the per-protocol population, which comprised all women who completed the study. This trial is registered with the ISRCTN registry, number ISRCTN21955180.
FINDINGS
Between June 16, 2014, and March 3, 2016, 498 participants were randomised, of whom 167 were allocated to WHO's recommended regimen, 166 were allocated to the 60 mg per day screen-and-treat approach, and 165 were allocated to the 30 mg per day screen-and-treat approach. 78 participants were withdrawn or lost to follow-up during the study; thus, the per-protocol population comprised 140 women assigned to WHO's recommended regimen, 133 allocated to the 60 mg screen-and-treat approach, and 147 allocated to the 30 mg screen-and-treat approach. The screen-and-treat approaches did not exceed the non-inferiority margin. Compared with WHO's recommended regimen, the difference in the amount of haemoglobin at day 84 was -2·2 g/L (95% CI -4·6 to 0·1) with the 60 mg screen-and-treat approach and -2·7 g/L (-5·0 to -0·5) with the 30 mg screen-and-treat approach. Adherence, reported side-effects, and adverse events were similar between the three groups. The most frequent side-effect was stomachache, which was similar in the 60 mg screen-and-treat group (82 cases per 1906 person-weeks) and with WHO's recommended regimen (81 cases per 1974 person-weeks; effect 1·0, 95% CI 0·7 to 1·6); in the 30 mg screen-and-treat group the frequency of stomachache was slightly lower than with WHO's recommended regimen (58 cases per 2009 person-weeks; effect 0·7, 95% CI 0·5 to 1·1). No participants died during the study.
INTERPRETATION
The hepcidin-guided screen-and-treat approaches had no advantages over WHO's recommended regimen in terms of adherence, side-effects, or safety outcomes. Our results suggest that the current WHO policy for iron administration to pregnant women should remain unchanged while more effective approaches continue to be sought.

545,32236732,Effects of ertugliflozin on renal function over 104 weeks of treatment: a post hoc analysis of two randomised controlled trials.,"AIMS/HYPOTHESIS
This study aimed to evaluate the effect of ertugliflozin, a sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitor, on eGFR and albuminuria (urine albumin/creatinine ratio [UACR]) vs glimepiride or placebo/glimepiride (non-ertugliflozin) over 104 weeks of treatment in participants with type 2 diabetes mellitus, using pooled data from two randomised controlled, active comparator studies from the eValuation of ERTugliflozin effIcacy and Safety (VERTIS) programme (Clinicaltrials.gov NCT01999218 [VERTIS SU] and NCT02033889 [VERTIS MET]). In the VERTIS SU study, ertugliflozin was evaluated vs glimepiride over 104 weeks. In the VERTIS MET study, ertugliflozin was evaluated vs placebo over 26 weeks; eligible participants were switched from placebo to blinded glimepiride from week 26 to week 104. The glycaemic efficacy of ertugliflozin vs non-ertugliflozin was also assessed in the pooled population.
METHODS
Post hoc, exploratory analysis was used to investigate mean changes from baseline in eGFR and UACR over 104 weeks.
RESULTS
Overall, mean (SD) baseline eGFR was 88.2 (18.8) ml min -1 (1.73 m) -2 and geometric mean (95% CI) of baseline UACR was 1.31 mg/mmol (1.23, 1.38). At week 6, the changes in eGFR from baseline were -2.3, -2.7 and -0.7 ml min -1 (1.73 m) -2 for the ertugliflozin 5 mg, ertugliflozin 15 mg and non-ertugliflozin groups, respectively. Mean eGFR in the ertugliflozin groups increased over time thereafter, while it decreased in the non-ertugliflozin group. Week 104 changes in eGFR from baseline were -0.2, 0.1 and -2.0 ml min -1 (1.73 m) -2 for the ertugliflozin 5 mg, ertugliflozin 15 mg and non-ertugliflozin groups, respectively. Among 415 patients (21.4% of the cohort) with albuminuria at baseline, the ertugliflozin groups had greater reductions in UACR at all measured time points up to week 104. At week 104, the non-ertugliflozin-corrected difference in UACR (95% CI) was -29.5% (-44.8, -9.8; p < 0.01) for ertugliflozin 5 mg and -37.6% (-51.8, -19.2; p < 0.001) for ertugliflozin 15 mg. Least squares mean changes from baseline in HbA 1c (mmol/mol [95% CI]) at week 104 were similar between treatment groups: -6.84 (-7.64, -6.03), -7.74 (-8.54, -6.94) and -6.84 (-7.65, -6.03) in the ertugliflozin 5 mg, ertugliflozin 15 mg and non-ertugliflozin groups, respectively. Least squares mean changes from baseline in HbA1 c (% [95% CI]) at week 104 were: -0.63 (-0.70, -0.55), -0.71 (-0.78, -0.64) and -0.63 (-0.70, -0.55) in the ertugliflozin 5 mg, ertugliflozin 15 mg and non-ertugliflozin groups, respectively.
CONCLUSIONS/INTERPRETATION
Ertugliflozin reduced eGFR at week 6, consistent with the known pharmacodynamic effects of SGLT2 inhibitors on renal function. Over 104 weeks, eGFR values returned to baseline and were higher with ertugliflozin compared with non-ertugliflozin treatment, even though changes in HbA 1c did not differ between the groups. Ertugliflozin reduced UACR in patients with baseline albuminuria.

547,32233611,A comprehensive health classification model based on support vector machine for proseal laryngeal mask and tracheal catheter assessment in herniorrhaphy.,"Purpose: In order to classify different types of health data collected in clinical practice of hernia surgery more effectively and improve the classification performance of support vector machine (SVM). Methods: A prospective randomized study was conducted. Sixty patients undergoing hernia repair under general anesthesia were randomly divided into two groups, PLMA group ( n = 30) and ETT group ( n = 30), for airway management. Heart rate, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, mean arterial pressure, respiratory parameters and the incidence of complications related to ProSeal laryngeal mask airway (PLMA) and endotracheal tube (ETT) were collected in clinical experiments in order to evaluate the operation condition. On the basis of this experiment, at first, expert credibility is introduced to process the index value; secondly, the classification weight of the index is objectively determined by the information entropy output of the index itself; finally, a comprehensive classification model of support vector machine based on key sample set is proposed and its advantages are evaluated. Result: After classifying the experimental data, we found that SVM can accurately judge the effect of surgery by data. In this experiment, PLMA method is better than ETT method in xenon repair operation. Discussion: SVM has great accuracy and practicability in judging the outcome of xenon repair operation. Conclusion: The proposed index classification weight model can deal with the uncertainties caused by uncertain information and give the confidence of the uncertain information. Compared with the traditional SVM method, the proposed method based on SVM and key sample set greatly reduces the number of samples that misjudge the effect of samples, and improves the practicability of SVM method. It is concluded that PLMA is superior to the ETT technique to hernia surgical. The idea of constructing classification model based on key sample set proposed in this paper can also be used for reference in other data mining methods.",2019,"Compared with the traditional SVM method, the proposed method based on SVM and key sample set greatly reduces the number of samples that misjudge the effect of samples, and improves the practicability of SVM method.","['Sixty patients undergoing hernia repair under general anesthesia', 'herniorrhaphy', 'Discussion']","['PLMA', 'SVM']","['Heart rate, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, mean arterial pressure, respiratory parameters and the incidence of complications related to ProSeal laryngeal mask airway (PLMA) and endotracheal tube (ETT']","[{'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patient'}, {'cui': 'C0019328', 'cui_str': 'Hernia repair'}, {'cui': 'C1719976', 'cui_str': 'Under general anesthesia'}, {'cui': 'C0557061', 'cui_str': 'Discussion'}]",[],"[{'cui': 'C0018810', 'cui_str': 'Heart rate'}, {'cui': 'C0871470', 'cui_str': 'Systolic blood pressure'}, {'cui': 'C0428883', 'cui_str': 'Diastolic blood pressure'}, {'cui': 'C0428886', 'cui_str': 'Mean blood pressure'}, {'cui': 'C0449381', 'cui_str': 'Observation parameter'}, {'cui': 'C0021149', 'cui_str': 'Incidence'}, {'cui': 'C0009566', 'cui_str': 'Complication'}, {'cui': 'C0162645', 'cui_str': 'Laryngeal mask'}, {'cui': 'C0336630', 'cui_str': 'Endotracheal tube'}]",60.0,0.0216416,"Compared with the traditional SVM method, the proposed method based on SVM and key sample set greatly reduces the number of samples that misjudge the effect of samples, and improves the practicability of SVM method.","[{'ForeName': 'Zhen Shuang', 'Initials': 'ZS', 'LastName': 'Du', 'Affiliation': 'General Practice, The Second Affiliated Hospital of Fujian Medical University, Quanzhou 362000, Fujian, China.'}, {'ForeName': 'Qing Wei', 'Initials': 'QW', 'LastName': 'Yang', 'Affiliation': 'Department of General Surgery, Shishi City Hospital, Shishi 362700, Fujian, China.'}, {'ForeName': 'He Fan', 'Initials': 'HF', 'LastName': 'He', 'Affiliation': 'General Practice, The Second Affiliated Hospital of Fujian Medical University, Quanzhou 362000, Fujian, China.'}, {'ForeName': 'Ming Xia', 'Initials': 'MX', 'LastName': 'Qiu', 'Affiliation': 'Hubin Street Health Service Centre of Shishi, Shishi 360007, Fujian, China.'}, {'ForeName': 'Zhi Yao', 'Initials': 'ZY', 'LastName': 'Chen', 'Affiliation': 'General Practice, The Second Affiliated Hospital of Fujian Medical University, Quanzhou 362000, Fujian, China.'}, {'ForeName': 'Qing Fu', 'Initials': 'QF', 'LastName': 'Hu', 'Affiliation': 'General Practice, The Second Affiliated Hospital of Fujian Medical University, Quanzhou 362000, Fujian, China.'}, {'ForeName': 'Qing Mao', 'Initials': 'QM', 'LastName': 'Wang', 'Affiliation': 'Department of General Surgery, Shishi City Hospital, Shishi 362700, Fujian, China.'}, {'ForeName': 'Zi Ping', 'Initials': 'ZP', 'LastName': 'Zhang', 'Affiliation': 'General Practice, The Second Affiliated Hospital of Fujian Medical University, Quanzhou 362000, Fujian, China.'}, {'ForeName': 'Qiong Hua', 'Initials': 'QH', 'LastName': 'Lin', 'Affiliation': 'General Practice, The Second Affiliated Hospital of Fujian Medical University, Quanzhou 362000, Fujian, China.'}, {'ForeName': 'Liu Yue', 'Initials': 'LY', 'LastName': 'Huang', 'Affiliation': 'General Practice, The Second Affiliated Hospital of Fujian Medical University, Quanzhou 362000, Fujian, China.'}, {'ForeName': 'Ya Jiao', 'Initials': 'YJ', 'LastName': 'Huang', 'Affiliation': 'General Practice, The Second Affiliated Hospital of Fujian Medical University, Quanzhou 362000, Fujian, China.'}]",Mathematical biosciences and engineering : MBE,['10.3934/mbe.2020097']
548,32234463,Bioprosthetic Aortic Valve Leaflet Thickening in the Evolut Low Risk Sub-Study.,"BACKGROUND
Subclinical leaflet thrombosis has been reported after bioprosthetic aortic valve replacement, characterized using 4-dimensional computed tomographic imaging by hypoattenuated leaflet thickening (HALT) and reduced leaflet motion (RLM). The incidence and clinical implications of these findings remain unclear.
OBJECTIVES
The aim of this study was to determine the frequency, predictors, and hemodynamic and clinical correlates of HALT and RLM after aortic bioprosthetic replacement.
METHODS
A prospective subset of patients not on oral anticoagulation enrolled in the Evolut Low Risk randomized trial underwent computed tomographic imaging 30 days and 1 year after transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) or surgery. The primary endpoint was the frequency of HALT at 30 days and 1 year, analyzed by an independent core laboratory using standardized definitions. Secondary endpoints included RLM, mean aortic gradient, and clinical events at 30 days and 1 year.
RESULTS
At 30 days, the frequency of HALT was 31 of 179 (17.3%) for TAVR and 23 of 139 (16.5%) for surgery; the frequency of RLM was 23 of 157 (14.6%) for TAVR and 19 of 133 (14.3%) for surgery. At 1 year, the frequency of HALT was 47 of 152 (30.9%) for TAVR and 33 of 116 (28.4%) for surgery; the frequency of RLM was 45 of 145 (31.0%) for TAVR and 30 of 111 (27.0%) for surgery. Aortic valve hemodynamic status was not influenced by the presence or severity of HALT or RLM at either time point. The rates of HALT and RLM were similar after the implantation of supra-annular, self-expanding transcatheter, or surgical bioprostheses.
CONCLUSIONS
The presence of computed tomographic imaging abnormalities of aortic bioprostheses were frequent but dynamic in the first year after self-expanding transcatheter and surgical aortic valve replacement, but these findings did not correlate with aortic valve hemodynamic status after aortic valve replacement in patients at low risk for surgery.

To observe clinical effects of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) intra-articular and extra-articular injection for patients with knee osteoarthritis (KOA), and analyze its safety and clinical efficacy.
METHODS
From January to December 2017, 48 patients with KOA were randomly divided into observation group and control group, 24 cases in each group. The observation group was treated with intra-articular injection of PRP (2 ml) and extra-articular injection of PRP (2 ml), once a week, for three times, including 8 males and 16 females with an average of (58.04±7.87) years old ranging from 43 to 68 years old, the courses of disease ranged from 1 to 8 years with an average of (4.69±1.96) years, the body mass index (BMI) was (24.53±5.26) kg/m 2 . The control group was treated with intra-articular injection of sodium hyaluronate (20 mg), extra-articular injection of analgesic drug (2 ml for one point), once a week, for three times, including 7 males and 17 females with an average of (60.54±8.93) years old ranging from 47 to 72 years old, the courses of disease ranged from 1.5 to 9 years with an average of (5.27±1.68) years, BMI was (23.47±4.62) kg/m 2 . VAS score and Lysholm score before operation and the 1st, 6th month after treatment were compared between two groups.
RESULTS
All patients were followed up at least 6 months without occurrence serious adverse reactions or complications. VAS score in observation group and control group before treatment and 1st, 6th month after treatment were 7.35±1.47, 4.15±1.52, 2.26±1.02 and 7.51±1.39, 3.84±1.76, 3.66±1.18, respectively; VAS score in obsevation group was lower than that of control group at 6 months after treatment. Lysholm score in observation group and control group before treatment and 1st, 6th month after treatment were 55.21±5.78, 79.16±7.25, 85.45±6.87 and 54.65± 6.40, 77.58±6.94, 82.34±7.12. There were significant differences in Lysholm score before and after injection between two groups ( P <0.05) . There was no significant difference in Lysholm score between two groups at 1 month after treatment ( P >0.05), while Lysholm score in observation group was better than that of control group at 6 months after treatment ( P <0.05) .
CONCLUSION
Intra-articular and extra-articular injection of PRP could relieve pain symptoms and improve function of knee joint with higher safety, although the short-term effect is not significantly different from traditional treatment, its medium-long-term effect is stable.

550,26569059,Validation of the Predictive Value of Modeled Human Chorionic Gonadotrophin Residual Production in Low-Risk Gestational Trophoblastic Neoplasia Patients Treated in NRG Oncology/Gynecologic Oncology Group-174 Phase III Trial.,"OBJECTIVES
In low-risk gestational trophoblastic neoplasia, chemotherapy effect is monitored and adjusted with serum human chorionic gonadotrophin (hCG) levels. Mathematical modeling of hCG kinetics may allow prediction of methotrexate (MTX) resistance, with production parameter ""hCGres."" This approach was evaluated using the GOG-174 (NRG Oncology/Gynecologic Oncology Group-174) trial database, in which weekly MTX (arm 1) was compared with dactinomycin (arm 2).
METHODS
Database (210 patients, including 78 with resistance) was split into 2 sets. A 126-patient training set was initially used to estimate model parameters. Patient hCG kinetics from days 7 to 45 were fit to: [hCG(time)] = hCG7 * exp(-k * time) + hCGres, where hCGres is residual hCG tumor production, hCG7 is the initial hCG level, and k is the elimination rate constant. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analyses defined putative hCGRes predictor of resistance. An 84-patient test set was used to assess prediction validity.
RESULTS
The hCGres was predictive of outcome in both arms, with no impact of treatment arm on unexplained variability of kinetic parameter estimates. The best hCGres cutoffs to discriminate resistant versus sensitive patients were 7.7 and 74.0 IU/L in arms 1 and 2, respectively. By combining them, 2 predictive groups were defined (ROC area under the curve, 0.82; sensitivity, 93.8%; specificity, 70.5%). The predictive value of hCGres-based groups regarding resistance was reproducible in test set (ROC area under the curve, 0.81; sensitivity, 88.9%; specificity, 73.1%). Both hCGres and treatment arm were associated with resistance by logistic regression analysis.
CONCLUSIONS
The early predictive value of the modeled kinetic parameter hCGres regarding resistance seems promising in the GOG-174 study. This is the second positive evaluation of this approach. Prospective validation is warranted.",2016,"The hCGres was predictive of outcome in both arms, with no impact of treatment arm on unexplained variability of kinetic parameter estimates.","['Low-Risk Gestational Trophoblastic Neoplasia Patients Treated in NRG Oncology/Gynecologic Oncology Group-174 Phase III Trial', 'Database (210 patients, including 78 with resistance']","['dactinomycin', 'methotrexate (MTX', 'Modeled Human Chorionic Gonadotrophin Residual Production', 'MTX', 'hCG7']",['serum human chorionic gonadotrophin (hCG) levels'],"[{'cui': 'C3538919', 'cui_str': 'Low risk (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C1135868', 'cui_str': 'Gestational Trophoblastic Neoplasms'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C1292734', 'cui_str': 'Treats'}, {'cui': 'C0205480', 'cui_str': 'Gynecologic (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0439745', 'cui_str': 'Grouped (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C4517604', 'cui_str': 'One hundred and seventy-four'}, {'cui': 'C0585064', 'cui_str': 'Numerical phases (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0439070', 'cui_str': 'III'}, {'cui': 'C0993637', 'cui_str': 'Data Base'}, {'cui': 'C4319559', 'cui_str': '210'}, {'cui': 'C0332257', 'cui_str': 'Including (qualifier value)'}]","[{'cui': 'C0010934', 'cui_str': 'Dactinomycin'}, {'cui': 'C0025677', 'cui_str': 'Methotrexate'}, {'cui': 'C1141639', 'cui_str': 'Human Chorionic Gonadotropin'}, {'cui': 'C1609982', 'cui_str': 'Residual (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0033268'}]","[{'cui': 'C0229671', 'cui_str': 'Serum'}, {'cui': 'C0428402', 'cui_str': 'Human chorionic gonadotropin measurement (procedure)'}]",,0.0675011,"The hCGres was predictive of outcome in both arms, with no impact of treatment arm on unexplained variability of kinetic parameter estimates.","[{'ForeName': 'Benoit', 'Initials': 'B', 'LastName': 'You', 'Affiliation': '*EMR UBCL/HCL 3738, Université Claude Bernard Lyon-1, Institut de Cancérologie des Hospices Civils de Lyon (IC-HCL), Centre de Référence des Maladie Trophoblastiques, Hospices Civils de Lyon, Lyon, France; †NRG Oncology Statistics and Data Management Center, Roswell Park Cancer Institute, Buffalo, NY; and ‡Department of Oncology, Princess Margaret Hospital; and §Department of Gynecology/Oncology, Toronto-Sunnybrook Regional Cancer Centre, Toronto, Ontario, Canada.'}, {'ForeName': 'Wei', 'Initials': 'W', 'LastName': 'Deng', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Emilie', 'Initials': 'E', 'LastName': 'Hénin', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Amit', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Oza', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Raymond', 'Initials': 'R', 'LastName': 'Osborne', 'Affiliation': ''}]",International journal of gynecological cancer : official journal of the International Gynecological Cancer Society,['10.1097/IGC.0000000000000581']
551,32229139,The short-term effect of dark chocolate flavanols on cognition in older adults: A randomized controlled trial (FlaSeCo).,"BACKGROUND
Cocoa flavanols in the diet have had positive effects on cognition, blood lipid levels, and glucose metabolism.
METHODS
Cognitively healthy older adults aged 65-75 years were recruited for an eight-week randomized, double-blind controlled trial to investigate the effectiveness of cocoa flavanols on cognitive functions. At baseline, nutrient and polyphenol intakes from diet were assessed with three-day food diaries. The intervention group received 50 g dark chocolate containing 410 mg of flavanols per day, and the control group 50 g dark chocolate containing 86 mg of flavanols per day, for eight weeks. Cognition was assessed with Verbal Fluency (VF) and the Trail Making Test (TMT) A and B as the main outcome measures. Changes in blood lipids and glucose were also measured.
RESULTS
The older adults participating numbered 100 (63% women), mean 69 y (range 65 to 74). They were highly educated with a mean 14.9 years of education (SD 3.6). No differences in changes in cognition were seen between groups. The mean change (± SEs) in the time to complete the TMT A and B in the intervention group was -4.6 s (-7.1 to -2.1) and -16.1 s (-29.1 to -3.1), and in the controls -4.4 s (-7.0 to -1.9) and -12.5 s (-22.8 to -2.1)(TMT A p = 0.93; TMT B p = 0.66). No difference was apparent in the changes in blood lipids, glucose levels, or body weight between the groups.

552,32134713,Effects of resveratrol or estradiol on postexercise endothelial function in estrogen-deficient postmenopausal women.,"Regular exercise enhances endothelial function in older men, but not consistently in estrogen-deficient postmenopausal women. Estradiol treatment improves basal endothelial function and restores improvements in endothelial function (flow-mediated dilation, FMD) to aerobic exercise training in postmenopausal women; however, estradiol treatment is controversial. Resveratrol, an estrogen receptor ligand, enhances exercise training effects on cardiovascular function and nitric oxide (NO) release in animal models, but impairs exercise training effects in men. We conducted a randomized cross-over, double-blinded, placebo-controlled pilot study to determine whether acute (single dose) resveratrol (250-mg tablet) or estradiol (0.05 mg/day transdermal patch) treatment enhances FMD at rest and after a single bout of moderate-intensity aerobic exercise in healthy estrogen-deficient postmenopausal women ( n = 15, 58.1 ± 3.2 yr). FMD was measured before and after (30, 60, and 120 min) a 40-min bout of moderate-intensity treadmill exercise (60-75% peak heart rate) under the respective conditions (separated by 1-2 wk). FMD was higher ( P < 0.05) before exercise and at all post-exercise time points in the resveratrol and estradiol conditions compared to placebo. FMD was increased from baseline by 120 min postexercise in the estradiol condition ( P < 0.001), but not resveratrol or PL conditions. Consistent with our previous findings, estradiol also enhances endothelial function in response to acute endurance exercise.

553,32016532,Methylnaltrexone for the treatment of opioid-induced constipation and gastrointestinal stasis in intensive care patients. Results from the MOTION trial.,"PURPOSE
Constipation can be a significant problem in critically unwell patients, associated with detrimental outcomes. Opioids are thought to contribute to the mechanism of bowel dysfunction. We tested if methylnaltrexone, a pure peripheral mu-opioid receptor antagonist, could reverse opioid-induced constipation.
METHODS
The MOTION trial is a multi-centre, double blind, randomised placebo-controlled trial to investigate whether methylnaltrexone alleviates opioid-induced constipation (OIC) in critical care patients. Eligibility criteria included adult ICU patients who were mechanically ventilated, receiving opioids and were constipated (had not opened bowels for a minimum 48 h) despite prior administration of regular laxatives as per local bowel management protocol. The primary outcome was time to significant rescue-free laxation. Secondary outcomes included gastric residual volume, tolerance of enteral feeds, requirement for rescue laxatives, requirement for prokinetics, average number of bowel movements per day, escalation of opioid dose due to antagonism/reversal of analgesia, incidence of ventilator-associated pneumonia, incidence of diarrhoea and Clostridium difficile infection and finally 28 day, ICU and hospital mortality.
RESULTS
A total of 84 patients were enrolled and randomized (41 to methylnaltrexone and 43 to placebo). The baseline demographic characteristics of the two groups were generally well balanced. There was no significant difference in time to rescue-free laxation between the groups (Hazard ratio 1.42, 95% CI 0.82-2.46, p = 0.22). There were no significant differences in the majority of secondary outcomes, particularly days 1-3. However, during days 4-28, there were fewer median number of bowel movements per day in the methylnaltrexone group, (p = 0.01) and a greater incidence of diarrhoea in the placebo group (p = 0.02). There was a marked difference in mortality between the groups, with ten deaths in the methylnaltrexone group and two in the placebo group during days 4-28 (p = 0.007).
CONCLUSION
We found no evidence to support the addition of methylnaltrexone to regular laxatives for the treatment of opioid-induced constipation in critically ill patients; however, the confidence interval was wide and a clinically important difference cannot be excluded.",2020,"There was no significant difference in time to rescue-free laxation between the groups (Hazard ratio 1.42, 95% CI 0.82-2.46, p =

554,31935774,Pelvic Floor Muscle Training in Female Athletes: A Randomized Controlled Pilot Study.,"The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of pelvic floor muscles training in elite female volleyball athletes and whether it is an effective therapy for stress urinary incontinence. Fourteen athletes, both continent and incontinent, between 18 and 30 years of age, were randomly assigned to an experimental group or a control group. The experimental group received a protocol for pelvic floor muscle training for 4 months. This consisted of three phases: awareness/stabilization, strength training and power. The control group was not subject to any intervention during the same period. Measures were collected at the initial and final phase for both groups. Maximum voluntary contractions were evaluated with a perineometer, involuntary urine loss with a Pad test and quality of life with the King's Health Questionnaire. Baseline sociodemographic and anthropometric characteristics were not significantly different. Comparing the two groups, the experimental group improved maximum voluntary pelvic contractions (p<0.001) and reduced urine loss (p=0.025), indicating the existence of significant differences between groups in the variation from the initial and final phases. The percentage of urine loss decreased in the experimental group, from 71.4-42.9%, suggesting that the protocol intervention for 16 weeks may help athletes with stress urinary incontinence.",2020,"Comparing the two groups, the experimental group improved maximum voluntary pelvic contractions (p<0.001) and reduced urine loss (p=0.025), indicating the existence of significant differences between groups in the variation from the initial and final phases.","['elite female volleyball athletes', 'Female Athletes', 'Fourteen athletes, both continent and incontinent, between 18 and 30 years of age']","['protocol for pelvic floor muscle training', 'Pelvic Floor Muscle Training', 'pelvic floor muscles training']","['Maximum voluntary contractions', 'maximum voluntary pelvic contractions', 'percentage of urine loss', 'urine loss', 'Baseline sociodemographic and anthropometric characteristics', ""involuntary urine loss with a Pad test and quality of life with the King's Health Questionnaire""]","[{'cui': 'C0086287', 'cui_str': 'Females'}, {'cui': 'C1956059', 'cui_str': 'Volleyball'}, {'cui': 'C0238703', 'cui_str': 'Athletes'}, {'cui': 'C3715152', 'cui_str': '14'}, {'cui': 'C0443192', 'cui_str': 'Continent (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0231238', 'cui_str': 'Incontinent (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0439234', 'cui_str': 'year (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0001792', 'cui_str': 'Elderly'}]","[{'cui': 'C0442711', 'cui_str': 'Protocols (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C4087139', 'cui_str': 'Pelvic floor muscle training'}]","[{'cui': 'C0439656', 'cui_str': 'Voluntary (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C1140999', 'cui_str': 'Contraction (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C0030797', 'cui_str': 'Pelvic Region'}, {'cui': 'C0042037'}, {'cui': 'C0441601', 'cui_str': 'Padding (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0392366', 'cui_str': 'Tests (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0034380'}, {'cui': 'C0018684', 'cui_str': 'Health'}, {'cui': 'C0034394', 'cui_str': 'Questionnaires'}]",,0.0318413,"Comparing the two groups, the experimental group improved maximum voluntary pelvic contractions (p<0.001) and reduced urine loss (p=0.025), indicating the existence of significant differences between groups in the variation from the initial and final phases.","[{'ForeName': 'Telma Filipa', 'Initials': 'TF', 'LastName': 'Pires', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Sports Sciences, University of Trás-os- Montes and Alto Douro, Vila Real, Portugal.'}, {'ForeName': 'Patricia Maria', 'Initials': 'PM', 'LastName': 'Pires', 'Affiliation': 'Higher School of Health, University of Trás-os-Montes and Alto Douro, Vila Real, Portugal.'}, {'ForeName': 'Maria Helena', 'Initials': 'MH', 'LastName': 'Moreira', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Sports, Exercise and Health Sciences, CIDESD, CITAB, University of Trás-os-Montes and Alto Douro, Vila Real, Portugal.'}, {'ForeName': 'Ronaldo Eugênio Calçadas Dias', 'Initials': 'RECD', 'LastName': 'Gabriel', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Sports, Exercise and Health Sciences, CITAB, University of Trás-os-Montes and Alto Douro, Vila Real, Portugal.'}, {'ForeName': 'Paulo Vicente', 'Initials': 'PV', 'LastName': 'João', 'Affiliation': 'Center in Sports Sciences, Health Sciences and Human Development (CIDESD), CreativeLab, University of Trás-os-Montes and Alto Douro (UTAD) Vila Real, Portugal.'}, {'ForeName': 'Sara Alexandra', 'Initials': 'SA', 'LastName': 'Viana', 'Affiliation': 'Higher School of Health, University of Fernando Pessoa, Porto, Portugal.'}, {'ForeName': 'Rui Antunes', 'Initials': 'RA', 'LastName': 'Viana', 'Affiliation': 'Higher School of Health, University of Fernando Pessoa, Porto, Portugal.'}]",International journal of sports medicine,['10.1055/a-1073-7977']
555,31935778,Influence of a Field Hamstring Eccentric Training on Muscle Strength and Flexibility.,"Muscle strength imbalances and poor flexibility are frequently described as risk factors for hamstring injury. Preventive strategies include eccentric exercises, but the influence of field eccentric exercises on these risk factors remains unclear. We investigated the influence of a field hamstring eccentric program on hamstring strength and flexibility. Twenty-seven amateur athletes were randomly assigned to an intervention (n=13) or control group (n=14). In the intervention group, participants were involved in 15 sessions of four eccentric exercises. Peak torque, hamstring-to-quadriceps ratios, passive and active flexibility were analyzed. No significant modifications of strength, passive or active flexibility were observed in the control group (p>0.05). Hamstring eccentric peak torque (+7.1%) and functional hamstring-to-quadriceps ratios (9.3%) were significantly increased (p<0.05) in the intervention group, but not concentric strength (p<0.05). Passive straight leg raise was significantly increased by 11.4° (+12.7%, p<0.001), but not active flexibility (+3.1%, p>0.05). In conclusion, a 6-week eccentric program, including four field exercises for hamstring muscles, is an effective method of improving eccentric strength, functional ratios and, especially, passive flexibility. As this program may be easily implemented in a real-world context, this association of multiple eccentric exercises might be useful in an injury prevention strategy.",2020,"No significant modifications of strength, passive or active flexibility were observed in the control group (p>0.05).",['Twenty-seven amateur athletes'],"['field hamstring eccentric program', 'Field Hamstring Eccentric Training', 'field eccentric exercises']","['functional hamstring-to-quadriceps ratios', 'strength, passive or active flexibility', 'Muscle Strength and Flexibility', 'Passive straight leg raise', 'hamstring strength and flexibility', 'Peak torque, hamstring-to-quadriceps ratios, passive and active flexibility', 'Hamstring eccentric peak torque', 'active flexibility']","[{'cui': 'C4319602', 'cui_str': '27'}, {'cui': 'C0238703', 'cui_str': 'Athletes'}]","[{'cui': 'C0440042', 'cui_str': ""Field's""}, {'cui': 'C0439740', 'cui_str': 'Eccentric (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C2728259', 'cui_str': 'Program'}, {'cui': 'C0220931', 'cui_str': 'Functional training'}, {'cui': 'C0015259', 'cui_str': 'Physical Activity'}]","[{'cui': 'C0205245', 'cui_str': 'Functional (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0456603', 'cui_str': 'Ratio (property) (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0205177', 'cui_str': 'Active (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0242808', 'cui_str': 'Flexibility'}, {'cui': 'C0517349', 'cui_str': 'Muscle Strength'}, {'cui': 'C0422926', 'cui_str': 'Straight leg raise test response'}, {'cui': 'C0444505', 'cui_str': 'Peak (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0376590', 'cui_str': 'Torque'}, {'cui': 'C0439740', 'cui_str': 'Eccentric (qualifier value)'}]",,0.0100346,"No significant modifications of strength, passive or active flexibility were observed in the control group (p>0.05).","[{'ForeName': 'François', 'Initials': 'F', 'LastName': 'Delvaux', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, IOC Research Center for prevention and athlete health, FIFA Medical Center of Excellence, FIMS Collaborating Center of Sports Medicine, University and CHU of Liege, Liege, Belgium.'}, {'ForeName': 'Cedric', 'Initials': 'C', 'LastName': 'Schwartz', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, IOC Research Center for prevention and athlete health, FIFA Medical Center of Excellence, FIMS Collaborating Center of Sports Medicine, University and CHU of Liege, Liege, Belgium.'}, {'ForeName': 'Thibault', 'Initials': 'T', 'LastName': 'Decréquy', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, IOC Research Center for prevention and athlete health, FIFA Medical Center of Excellence, FIMS Collaborating Center of Sports Medicine, University and CHU of Liege, Liege, Belgium.'}, {'ForeName': 'Thibault', 'Initials': 'T', 'LastName': 'Devalckeneer', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, IOC Research Center for prevention and athlete health, FIFA Medical Center of Excellence, FIMS Collaborating Center of Sports Medicine, University and CHU of Liege, Liege, Belgium.'}, {'ForeName': 'Julien', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Paulus', 'Affiliation': 'Laboratory of Human Motion Analysis, University of Liege, Liege, Belgium.'}, {'ForeName': 'Stephen', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Bornheim', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, IOC Research Center for prevention and athlete health, FIFA Medical Center of Excellence, FIMS Collaborating Center of Sports Medicine, University and CHU of Liege, Liege, Belgium.'}, {'ForeName': 'Jean-François', 'Initials': 'JF', 'LastName': 'Kaux', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, IOC Research Center for prevention and athlete health, FIFA Medical Center of Excellence, FIMS Collaborating Center of Sports Medicine, University and CHU of Liege, Liege, Belgium.'}, {'ForeName': 'Jean-Louis', 'Initials': 'JL', 'LastName': 'Croisier', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, IOC Research Center for prevention and athlete health, FIFA Medical Center of Excellence, FIMS Collaborating Center of Sports Medicine, University and CHU of Liege, Liege, Belgium.'}]",International journal of sports medicine,['10.1055/a-1073-7809']

557,32229229,Effectiveness and Safety of Supervised Home-based Physical Training in Patients With COPD on Long-Term Home Oxygen Therapy: A Randomized Trial.,"BACKGROUND
Patients with COPD in advanced stages who need long-term home oxygen therapy (LTHOT) have difficulty participating in outpatient pulmonary rehabilitation (PR) programs. This difficulty is due to the severity of their disease, limitations involving transportation and mobility, high costs, and issues related to patients' safety and individual needs. Unsupervised home-based physical training (PT) is frequently used.
RESEARCH QUESTION
The main objective of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of a supervised home-based PT program on exercise capacity and other outcomes in patients with COPD receiving LTHOT.
STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS
In a randomized clinical trial, patients with COPD who were on LTHOT were allocated into two groups: the supervised physical training (PT) group, consisting of patients who received home-based supervised muscle strength and endurance training in twice-weekly 60-min sessions for 12 weeks; and the unsupervised activity booklet group, consisting of patients who received a booklet advising them to perform exercise twice a week for 12 weeks. All participants were assessed prior to and following the intervention in terms of exercise capacity (6-min step-test and the 1-min sit-to-stand test); dyspnea (Medical Research Council scale); fatigue (Brazilian Portuguese version of the Fatigue Severity Scale); and health status (COPD Assessment Test).
RESULTS
A total of 44 patients were assessed (mean age, 70 ± 8 years; FEV 1 , 33 ± 14% predicted) (PT group, n = 22; booklet group, n = 22). Only the PT group patients presented significant improvement in the 6-min step-test (21 ± 9 vs 14 ± 1; P = 0.001), Medical Research Council scale (3.3 ± 1.0 vs 3.9 ± 0.9; P = 0.013), Brazilian Portuguese version of the Fatigue Severity Scale (5.0 ± 1.4 vs 5.2 ± 1.3; P = .015), and COPD Assessment Test (21 ± 8 vs 26 ± 6; P =0.001). No adverse effects were observed.
INTERPRETATION
Supervised home-based PT was effective and safe in improving exercise capacity, dyspnea, fatigue, and health status in patients with COPD on LTHOT.

558,32229754,Olanzapine for the Prevention of Postdischarge Nausea and Vomiting after Ambulatory Surgery: A Randomized Controlled Trial.,"BACKGROUND
Postdischarge nausea and vomiting after ambulatory surgery is a common problem that is not adequately addressed in current practice. This prospective, randomized, double-blind, parallel-group, placebo-controlled study was designed to test the hypothesis that oral olanzapine is superior to placebo at preventing postdischarge nausea and vomiting.
METHODS
In a single-center, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial, the authors compared a single preoperative dose of olanzapine 10 mg to placebo, in adult female patients 50 years old or less, undergoing ambulatory gynecologic or plastic surgery with general anesthesia. All patients received standard antiemetic prophylaxis with dexamethasone and ondansetron. The primary composite outcome was nausea and/or vomiting in the 24 h after discharge. Secondary outcomes included severe nausea, vomiting, and side effects.
RESULTS
A total of 140 patients were randomized and evaluable. The primary outcome occurred in 26 of 69 patients (38%) in the placebo group and in 10 of 71 patients (14%) in the olanzapine group (relative risk, 0.37; 95% CI, 0.20 to 0.72; P = 0.003). Severe nausea occurred in 14 patients (20%) in the placebo group and 4 patients (6%) in the olanzapine group (relative risk, 0.28; 95% CI, 0.10 to 0.80). Vomiting occurred in eight patients (12%) in the placebo group and two patients (3%) in the olanzapine group (relative risk, 0.24; 95% CI, 0.05 to 1.10). The median score for sedation (scale 0 to 10, with 10 being highest) in the 24 h after discharge was 4 (interquartile range, 2 to 7) in the placebo group and 6 (interquartile range, 3 to 8) in the olanzapine group (P = 0.023).
CONCLUSIONS
When combined with ondansetron and dexamethasone, the addition of olanzapine relative to placebo decreased the risk of nausea and/or vomiting in the 24 hafter discharge from ambulatory surgery by about 60% with a slight increase in reported sedation.",2020,"Vomiting occurred in eight patients (12%) in the placebo group and two patients (3%) in the olanzapine group (relative risk, 0.24; 95% CI, 0.05 to 1.10).","['140 patients were randomized and evaluable', 'after Ambulatory Surgery', 'adult female patients 50 years old or less, undergoing ambulatory gynecologic or plastic surgery with general anesthesia']","['dexamethasone and ondansetron', 'Olanzapine', 'placebo', 'olanzapine 10 mg to placebo', 'olanzapine', 'ondansetron and dexamethasone']","['Severe nausea', 'Postdischarge Nausea and Vomiting', 'nausea and vomiting', 'postdischarge nausea and vomiting', 'Vomiting', 'risk of nausea and/or vomiting', 'median score for sedation', 'severe nausea, vomiting, and side effects', 'nausea and/or vomiting']","[{'cui': 'C4319553', 'cui_str': '140 (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C0002428', 'cui_str': 'Ambulatory Surgery'}, {'cui': 'C0001675', 'cui_str': 'Adult'}, {'cui': 'C0086287', 'cui_str': 'Females'}, {'cui': 'C0439234', 'cui_str': 'year (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0677546', 'cui_str': 'Old episode (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0439841', 'cui_str': 'Ambulatory'}, {'cui': 'C0205480', 'cui_str': 'Gynecologic (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0038911', 'cui_str': 'Surgery, Plastic'}, {'cui': 'C0002915', 'cui_str': 'General Anesthesia'}]","[{'cui': 'C0011777', 'cui_str': 'Dexamethasone'}, {'cui': 'C0061851', 'cui_str': 'Ondansetron'}, {'cui': 'C0171023', 'cui_str': 'olanzapine'}, {'cui': 'C1696465', 'cui_str': 'placebo'}, {'cui': 'C0988260', 'cui_str': 'olanzapine 10 MG'}]","[{'cui': 'C0205082', 'cui_str': 'Severe (severity modifier) (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0027497', 'cui_str': 'Nausea'}, {'cui': 'C0027498', 'cui_str': 'Nausea and vomiting (disorder)'}, {'cui': 'C0042963', 'cui_str': 'Emesis'}, {'cui': 'C0035647', 'cui_str': 'Risk'}, {'cui': 'C2939193', 'cui_str': 'Median (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0449820', 'cui_str': 'Scores (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0235195', 'cui_str': 'Sedated (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C0001688', 'cui_str': 'side effects'}]",140.0,0.74613,"Vomiting occurred in eight patients (12%) in the placebo group and two patients (3%) in the olanzapine group (relative risk, 0.24; 95% CI, 0.05 to 1.10).","[{'ForeName': 'Jaime B', 'Initials': 'JB', 'LastName': 'Hyman', 'Affiliation': ""From the Department of Anesthesiology, Perioperative and Pain Medicine (J.B.H., C.P., B.C., M.H., S.D.)

To explore clinical effects of tranexamic acid on postoperative intra-articular hemorrhage after shoulder arthroscopy.
METHODS
From February to July 2018, 60 patients with rotator cuff tears treated by shoulder arthroscopy were randomly divided into observation group and control group, 30 cases in each group. In observation group, there were 6 males and 24 females; aged from 55 to 70 years old with an average age of (62.3±5.5) years; the courses of disease ranged from 2 to 36 months with an average of (11.7±1.7) months; received 0.5 g tranexamic acid (1 g of tranexamic acid was diluted with normal saline to 20 ml) in each articular cavity and subacromial space after operation. In control group, there were 5 males and 25 females; aged from 56 to 72 years old with an average of (63.4±5.8) years old; the courses of disease ranged from 4 to 36 months with an average of (10.8±1.4) months; 10 ml of normal saline was injected into joint cavity and subacromial space. Hemoglobin values between two groups before and after operation at 1 day were recorded, circumference of shoulder joint was measured preoperatively and the 1st and 7th days after operation, and circumference difference of shoulder joint was recorded. Complications such as subcutaneous blood stasis and DVT were recorded.
RESULTS
There was no significant difference in hemoglobin values between two groups before and after operation at 1 day ( P >0.05) . On the first day after surgery, peripheral diameter of shoulder joint in observation group [(32.9±0.3) cm ] was significantly lower than that in control group [(35.1±0.5) cm ], and the circumference difference of shoulder joint in observation group [(8.7±0.4) mm ] was also significantly lower than that in control group [(12.3±0.5) mm ], the difference was statistically significant ( P <0.05) . However, there was no significant difference in circumference of shoulder joint and the difference in circumference of shoulder joint between two groups on the 7th day after operation ( P >0.05) . Two patients in observation group occurred subcutaneous ecchymosis, while 6 patients occurred in control group, but without statistical difference between two groups ( P >0.05) .

560,30913381,"Comparison of nylon-flocked swab and Dacron swab cytology for anal HSIL detection in transgender women and gay, bisexual, and other men who have sex with men.","BACKGROUND
An anal histological high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (hHSIL) is an anal cancer precursor. Experts recommend Dacron swab anal cytology as a primary screen for anal hHSILs, especially among human immunodeficiency virus-infected and -uninfected men who have sex with men (MSM). Studies have shown that Dacron cytology inaccurately predicts anal hHSILs and results in unnecessary diagnostic procedures. Nylon-flocked (NF) swabs have been shown to trap pathogens and cells well. Thus, this study compared test characteristics of anal cytology using NF and Dacron swab collection protocols to predict anal hHSILs.

A single-visit, randomized clinical trial compared NF and Dacron swab anal cytology specimens to predict high-resolution anoscopy and biopsy-diagnosed anal hHSILs. Data for 326 gay men, bisexual men, other MSM, and male-to-female transgender women contributed descriptive and tabular statistics with which unadjusted and fully adjusted logistic regression models were constructed. The models estimated the odds of hHSILs, test accuracy (area under the curve [AUC]) and sensitivity, and specificity as well as the positive and negative predictive values of abnormal NF and Dacron cytology for predicting hHSILs.
RESULTS
In the fully adjusted model, the sensitivities for NF and Dacron cytology were nearly equal (48% vs 47%), but the specificity was higher with NF cytology (76% vs 69%). Comparisons of the areas under receiver operating characteristic curves showed that NF cytology alone predicted hHSILs better than the covariate model (AUC, 0.69 vs 0.63; P = .02), but NF and Dacron cytology comparisons showed no statistically significant differences (AUC, 0.69 vs 0.67; P = .3).
CONCLUSIONS
NF cytology and Dacron cytology provide modest sensitivity, but NF cytology has higher specificity and accuracy, and this is important for lowering the costs of population-based screening.",2019,"NF and Dacron cytology comparisons showed no statistically significant differences (AUC, 0.69 vs 0.67; P = .3).

561,30880163,"Slow-release naltrexone implant versus oral naltrexone for improving treatment outcomes in people with HIV who are addicted to opioids: a double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomised trial.","BACKGROUND
Untreated opioid addiction in people with HIV is associated with poor HIV treatment outcomes. Slow-release, long-acting, implantable naltrexone might improve these outcomes. Here, we present results of a study aimed to test this hypothesis.
METHODS
We did a 48 week double-blind, double-dummy, placebo-controlled, phase 3, randomised trial with men and women addicted to opioids who were starting antiretroviral therapy (ART) for HIV and whose viral loads were higher than 1000 copies per mL. Participants were seeking treatment at two HIV and two narcology programme centres in Saint Petersburg, Russia, and the surrounding Leningrad region. The Pavlov statistical department created a table with stratification on gender distribution, viral load, and CD4 cell count. We stratified participants according to gender, viral load, and CD4 cells per μL, and randomly assigned (1:1) them to addiction treatment with a naltrexone implant and oral naltrexone placebo (implant group) or oral naltrexone and placebo implant (oral group). The primary outcome was plasma viral load of less than 400 copies per mL at 24 weeks and 48 weeks. We included all randomly assigned participants in outcome analyses (intention to treat). Treatment staff and patients were masked to group assignment. The study is complete and registered at ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT01101815.
FINDINGS
Between July 14, 2011, and April 14, 2014, 238 potential participants were recruited and screened, 35 were excluded for not meeting inclusion criteria, three declined to participate, and 200 were randomly assigned to treatment (100 to each group). At week 24, 38 (38) participants in the implant group and 35 (35%) in the oral group had viral loads less than 400 copies per mL (risk ratio 1·1, 95% CI 0·76-1·56; p=0·77). At week 48, 66 participants in the implant group and 50 in the oral group had viral loads less than 400 copies per mL (risk ratio 1·32, 95% CI 1·04-1·68; p=0·045). There were seven serious adverse events: three deaths in the implant group (one due to heart disease, one trauma, and one AIDS), and four in the oral group (two overdoses, one pancreatic cancer, and one AIDS). The overdose deaths occurred 9-10 months after the last naltrexone dose.
INTERPRETATION
The longer the blockade of opioid effects, the more protection an individual gets from missed ART doses and impulsive behaviours that lead to relapse and poor, even fatal, outcomes. Commercial development of implants could result in a meaningful addition to addiction treatment options.

562,32212518,A Phase 3 Trial of Luspatercept in Patients with Transfusion-Dependent β-Thalassemia.,"BACKGROUND
Patients with transfusion-dependent β-thalassemia need regular red-cell transfusions. Luspatercept, a recombinant fusion protein that binds to select transforming growth factor β superfamily ligands, may enhance erythroid maturation and reduce the transfusion burden (the total number of red-cell units transfused) in such patients.
METHODS
In this randomized, double-blind, phase 3 trial, we assigned, in a 2:1 ratio, adults with transfusion-dependent β-thalassemia to receive best supportive care plus luspatercept (at a dose of 1.00 to 1.25 mg per kilogram of body weight) or placebo for at least 48 weeks. The primary end point was the percentage of patients who had a reduction in the transfusion burden of at least 33% from baseline during weeks 13 through 24 plus a reduction of at least 2 red-cell units over this 12-week interval. Other efficacy end points included reductions in the transfusion burden during any 12-week interval and results of iron studies.
RESULTS
A total of 224 patients were assigned to the luspatercept group and 112 to the placebo group. Luspatercept or placebo was administered for a median of approximately 64 weeks in both groups. The percentage of patients who had a reduction in the transfusion burden of at least 33% from baseline during weeks 13 through 24 plus a reduction of at least 2 red-cell units over this 12-week interval was significantly greater in the luspatercept group than in the placebo group (21.4% vs. 4.5%, P<0.001). During any 12-week interval, the percentage of patients who had a reduction in transfusion burden of at least 33% was greater in the luspatercept group than in the placebo group (70.5% vs. 29.5%), as was the percentage of those who had a reduction of at least 50% (40.2% vs. 6.3%). The least-squares mean difference between the groups in serum ferritin levels at week 48 was -348 μg per liter (95% confidence interval, -517 to -179) in favor of luspatercept. Adverse events of transient bone pain, arthralgia, dizziness, hypertension, and hyperuricemia were more common with luspatercept than placebo.
CONCLUSIONS
The percentage of patients with transfusion-dependent β-thalassemia who had a reduction in transfusion burden was significantly greater in the luspatercept group than in the placebo group, and few adverse events led to the discontinuation of treatment.

564,27128107,"Comparative Safety, Efficiency, and Nursing Preference Among 3 Methods for Intravenous Push Medication Preparation: A Randomized Crossover Simulation Study.","OBJECTIVE
The aim of this study was to compare total time for drug preparation, associated errors, and nurses' preferences among 3 different intravenous (IV) push medication methods.
RESEARCH DESIGN
A randomized crossover simulation design was used to compare total time for drug preparation and incidence of medication preparation errors between BD Simplist (BDS), Carpuject (CJ), and traditional vial-and-syringe process (TVSP). Three medication preparation areas were created to mimic a hospital setting. Twenty-four critical care nurses were asked to prepare an IV dose of diphenhydramine, ketorolac, and morphine in random order using BDS, CJ, and TVSP, also in random order. Total time for the preparation of each drug was measured. Medication preparation errors were noted. At the start of the study, nurses were surveyed about their stress levels regarding aspects of IV push medications. At completion, nurses were asked to rank order from the most to the least preferred administration method.
RESULTS
Mean time in seconds for drug preparation was significantly shorter (P < 0.004) with BDS (28.7; 95% confidence interval [CI], 23.3-34.2) and CJ (28.3; 95% CI, 23.1-33.5) compared with TSVP (65.8; 95% CI, 57.7-73.9). The time difference between BDS and CJ was not statistically significant. Medication preparation errors were significantly reduced with BDS compared with both CJ and TVSP (1.4% versus 77.8% versus 73.6%; P < 0.001). The BDS was ranked by nurses as the most preferred method.

565,32227179,Effect of Default Options in Advance Directives on Hospital-Free Days and Care Choices Among Seriously Ill Patients: A Randomized Clinical Trial.,"Importance
There is limited evidence regarding how patients make choices in advance directives (ADs) or whether these choices influence subsequent care.
Objective
To examine whether default options in ADs influence care choices and clinical outcomes.
Design, Setting, and Participants
This randomized clinical trial included 515 patients who met criteria for having serious illness and agreed to participate. Patients were enrolled at 20 outpatient clinics affiliated with the University of Pennsylvania Health System and the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center from February 2014 to April 2016 and had a median follow-up of 18 months. Data analysis was conducted from November 2018 to April 2019.
Interventions
Patients were randomly assigned to complete 1 of the 3 following ADs: (1) a comfort-promoting plan of care and nonreceipt of potentially life-sustaining therapies were selected by default (comfort AD), (2) a life-extending plan of care and receipt of potentially life-sustaining therapies were selected by default (life-extending AD), or (3) no choices were preselected (standard AD).
Main Outcomes and Measures
This trial was powered to rule out a reduction in hospital-free days in the intervention groups. Secondary outcomes included choices in ADs for an overall comfort-oriented approach to care, choices to forgo 4 forms of life support, patients' quality of life, decision conflict, place of death, admissions to hospitals and intensive care units, and costs of inpatient care.
Results
Among 515 patients randomized, 10 withdrew consent and 13 were later found to be ineligible, leaving 492 (95.5%) in the modified intention-to-treat (mITT) sample (median [interquartile range] age, 63 [56-70] years; 279 [56.7%] men; 122 [24.8%] black; 363 [73.8%] with cancer). Of these, 264 (53.7%) returned legally valid ADs and were debriefed about their assigned intervention. Among these, patients completing comfort ADs were more likely to choose comfort care (54 of 85 [63.5%]) than those returning standard ADs (45 of 91 [49.5%]) or life-extending ADs (33 of 88 [37.5%]) (P = .001). Among 492 patients in the mITT sample, 57 of 168 patients [33.9%] who completed the comfort AD, 47 of 165 patients [28.5%] who completed the standard AD, and 35 of 159 patients [22.0%] who completed the life-extending AD chose comfort care (P = .02), with patients not returning ADs coded as not selecting comfort care. In mITT analyses, median (interquartile range) hospital-free days among 168 patients assigned to comfort ADs and 159 patients assigned to life-extending default ADs were each noninferior to those among 165 patients assigned to standard ADs (standard AD: 486 [306-717] days; comfort AD: 554 [296-833] days; rate ratio, 1.05; 95% CI, 0.90-1.23; P < .001; life-extending AD: 550 [325-783] days; rate ratio, 1.03; 95% CI, 0.88-1.20; P < .001). There were no differences among groups in other secondary outcomes.
Conclusions and Relevance
In this randomized clinical trial, default options in ADs altered the choices seriously ill patients made regarding their future care without changing clinical outcomes.

566,32224119,Effectiveness of manual and electrical needle stimulation in acupuncture for chronic nonspecific low back pain: a randomized controlled trial.,"AIM
The aim of this study was to investigate effectiveness of electroacupuncture (EA) and manual acupuncture (MA) on pain and disability in patients with chronic low back.
METHODS
A total of 66 randomly allocated patients diagnosed with chronic LBP were assigned to receive either 12 sessions of acupuncture or electroacupuncture. The primary outcomes measurements were intensity pain (NRS) and disability (RMQ). All main analysis followed the intention-to-treat principle.
RESULTS
The groups reported improvements posttreatment in intensity pain and disability respectively; however, no differences between groups were observed. Regarding the secondary outcomes, we observed a between-group difference only for kinesiophobia in favor of the manual acupuncture group (difference = -4.1 points, 95% CI = -7.0 to -1.1). The results were maintained after 3 months of follow-up. Contrary to our hypothesis, however, EA did not result in a better outcome compared with MA treatment.
CONCLUSION
The study does not provide evidence that an electroacupuncture is superior to acupuncture treatment.

567,30772370,How should sugar-sweetened beverage health warnings be designed? A randomized experiment.,"Health warnings are a promising strategy for reducing consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages (SSBs), but uncertainty remains about how to design warnings to maximize their impact. Warnings already implemented in Latin America use nutrient disclosures, while proposed U.S. warnings would describe the health effects of consuming SSBs. We sought to determine whether warning characteristics influence consumers' reactions to SSB health warnings. A national convenience sample of U.S. adults (n = 1360) completed an online survey in 2018. In a factorial design, we randomly assigned participants to view SSB health warnings that differed in: 1) inclusion of health effects (""Drinking beverages with added sugar contributes to obesity, diabetes, and tooth decay""); 2) inclusion of a nutrient disclosure (""High in added sugar""); 3) inclusion of the marker word ""WARNING;"" and 4) shape (octagon vs. rectangle). The primary outcome was perceived message effectiveness (PME, range 1-5). PME was higher for warnings that included health effects (average differential effect [ADE] = 0.63, p < 0.001) or nutrient disclosures (ADE = 0.32, p < 0.001) compared to warnings without this information. However, adding a nutrient disclosure to a warning that already included health effects did not lead to higher PME compared to warnings with health effects alone. The marker ""WARNING"" (ADE = 0.21) and the octagon shape (ADE = 0.08) also led to higher PME compared to warnings without these characteristics (ps < 0.001). The same pattern of results held for the secondary outcomes, fear and thinking about harms.

570,32065623,"Clinical Effects of the Self-administered Subcutaneous Complement Inhibitor Zilucoplan in Patients With Moderate to Severe Generalized Myasthenia Gravis: Results of a Phase 2 Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Multicenter Clinical Trial.","Importance
Many patients with generalized myasthenia gravis (gMG) have substantial clinical disability, persistent disease burden, and adverse effects attributable to chronic immunosuppression. Therefore, there is a significant need for targeted, well-tolerated therapies with the potential to improve disease control and enhance quality of life.
Objective
To evaluate the clinical effects of zilucoplan, a subcutaneously (SC) self-administered macrocyclic peptide inhibitor of complement component 5, in a broad population of patients with moderate to severe gMG.
Design, Setting, and Participants
This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled phase 2 clinical trial at 25 study sites across North America recruited participants between December 2017 and August 2018. Fifty-seven patients were screened, of whom 12 did not meet inclusion criteria and 1 was lost to follow-up after randomization but before receiving study drug, resulting in a total of 44 acetylcholine receptor autoantibody (AChR-Ab)-positive patients with gMG with baseline Quantitative Myasthenia Gravis (QMG) scores of at least 12, regardless of treatment history.
Interventions
Patients were randomized 1:1:1 to a daily SC self-injection of placebo, 0.1-mg/kg zilucoplan, or 0.3-mg/kg zilucoplan for 12 weeks.
Main Outcomes and Measures
The primary and key secondary end points were the change from baseline to week 12 in QMG and MG Activities of Daily Living scores, respectively. Significance testing was prespecified at a 1-sided α of .10. Safety and tolerability were also assessed.
Results
The study of 44 patients was well balanced across the 3 treatment arms with respect to key demographic and disease-specific variables. The mean age of patients across all 3 treatment groups ranged from 45.5 to 54.6 years and most patients were white (average proportions across 3 treatment groups: 78.6%-86.7%). Clinically meaningful and statistically significant improvements in primary and key secondary efficacy end points were observed. Zilucoplan at a dose of 0.3 mg/kg SC daily resulted in a mean reduction from baseline of 6.0 points in the QMG score (placebo-corrected change, -2.8; P = .05) and 3.4 points in the MG Activities of Daily Living score (placebo-corrected change, -2.3; P = .04). Clinically meaningful and statistically significant improvements were also observed in other secondary end points, the MG Composite and MG Quality-of-Life scores. Outcomes for the 0.1-mg/kg SC daily dose were also statistically significant but slower in onset and less pronounced than with the 0.3-mg/kg dose. Rescue therapy (intravenous immunoglobulin or plasma exchange) was required in 3 of 15, 1 of 15, and 0 of 14 participants in the placebo, 0.1-mg/kg zilucoplan, and 0.3-mg/kg zilucoplan arms, respectively. Zilucoplan was observed to have a favorable safety and tolerability profile.
Conclusions and Relevance
Zilucoplan yielded rapid, meaningful, and sustained improvements over 12 weeks in a broad population of patients with moderate to severe AChR-Ab-positive gMG. Near-complete complement inhibition appeared superior to submaximal inhibition. The observed safety and tolerability profile of zilucoplan was favorable.

571,32223113,Rivaroxaban or Enoxaparin in Nonmajor Orthopedic Surgery.,"BACKGROUND
Nonmajor orthopedic surgery of the lower limbs that results in transient reduced mobility places patients at risk for venous thromboembolism. Rivaroxaban may be noninferior to enoxaparin with regard to the prevention of major venous thromboembolism in these patients.
METHODS
In this international, parallel-group, randomized, double-blind, noninferiority trial, we randomly assigned adult patients undergoing lower-limb nonmajor orthopedic surgery who were considered to be at risk for venous thromboembolism on the basis of the investigator's judgment to receive either rivaroxaban or enoxaparin. The primary efficacy outcome of major venous thromboembolism was a composite of symptomatic distal or proximal deep-vein thrombosis, pulmonary embolism, or venous thromboembolism-related death during the treatment period or asymptomatic proximal deep-vein thrombosis at the end of treatment. A test for superiority was planned if rivaroxaban proved to be noninferior to enoxaparin. For all outcomes, multiple imputation was used to account for missing data. Prespecified safety outcomes included major bleeding (fatal, critical, or clinically overt bleeding or bleeding at the surgical site leading to intervention) and nonmajor clinically relevant bleeding.
RESULTS
A total of 3604 patients underwent randomization; 1809 patients were assigned to receive rivaroxaban, and 1795 to receive enoxaparin. Major venous thromboembolism occurred in 4 of 1661 patients (0.2%) in the rivaroxaban group and in 18 of 1640 patients (1.1%) in the enoxaparin group (risk ratio with multiple imputation, 0.25; 95% confidence interval, 0.09 to 0.75; P<0.001 for noninferiority; P = 0.01 for superiority). The incidence of bleeding did not differ significantly between the rivaroxaban group and the enoxaparin group (1.1% and 1.0%, respectively, for major bleeding or nonmajor clinically relevant bleeding; 0.6% and 0.7%, respectively, for major bleeding).

572,28329211,Therapeutic Vaccine for Genital Herpes Simplex Virus-2 Infection: Findings From a Randomized Trial.,"Background
Genital herpes simplex virus type 2 (HSV-2) infection causes recurrent lesions and frequent viral shedding. GEN-003 is a candidate therapeutic vaccine containing HSV-2 gD2∆TMR and ICP4.2, and Matrix-M2 adjuvant.
Methods
Persons with genital herpes were randomized into 3 dose cohorts to receive 3 intramuscular doses 21 days apart of 10 µg, 30 µg, or 100 µg of GEN-003, antigens without adjuvant, or placebo. Participants obtained genital swab specimens twice daily for HSV-2 detection and monitored genital lesions for 28-day periods at baseline and at intervals after the last dose.
Results
One hundred and thirty-four persons received all 3 doses. Reactogenicity was associated with adjuvant but not with antigen dose or dose number. No serious adverse events were attributed to GEN-003. Compared with baseline, genital HSV-2 shedding rates immediately after dosing were reduced with GEN-003 (from 13.4% to 6.4% for 30 μg [P < .001] and from 15.0% to 10.3% for 100 µg [P < .001]). Lesion rates were also significantly (P < .01) reduced immediately following immunization with 30 µg or 100 µg of GEN-003. GEN-003 elicited increases in antigen binding, virus neutralizing antibody, and T-cell responses.
Conclusions
GEN-003 had an acceptable safety profile and stimulated humoral and cellular immune responses. GEN-003 at doses of 30 µg and 100 µg reduced genital HSV shedding and lesion rates.

573,32107343,Glucocorticoids affect metabolic but not muscle microvascular insulin sensitivity following high versus low salt intake.,"BACKGROUNDSalt-sensitive hypertension is often accompanied by insulin resistance in obese individuals, but the underlying mechanisms are obscure. Microvascular function is known to affect both salt sensitivity of blood pressure and metabolic insulin sensitivity. We hypothesized that excessive salt intake increases blood pressure and decreases insulin-mediated glucose disposal, at least in part by impairing insulin-mediated muscle microvascular recruitment (IMMR).METHODSIn 20 lean and 20 abdominally obese individuals, we assessed mean arterial pressure (MAP; 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure measurements), insulin-mediated whole-body glucose disposal (M/I value; hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamp technique), IMMR (contrast-enhanced ultrasound), osmolyte and water balance, and excretion of mineralocorticoids, glucocorticoids, and amino and organic acids after a low- and high-salt diet during 7 days in a randomized, double-blind, crossover design.RESULTSOn a low-, as compared with a high-salt, intake, MAP was lower, M/I value was lower, and IMMR was greater in both lean and abdominally obese individuals. In addition, natural logarithm IMMR was inversely associated with MAP in lean participants on a low-salt diet only. On a high-salt diet, free water clearance decreased, and excretion of glucocorticoids and of amino acids involved in the urea cycle increased.CONCLUSIONOur findings imply that hemodynamic and metabolic changes resulting from alterations in salt intake are not necessarily associated. Moreover, they are consistent with the concept that a high-salt intake increases muscle glucose uptake as a response to high salt-induced, glucocorticoid-driven muscle catabolism to stimulate urea production and thereby renal water conservation.TRIAL REGISTRATIONClinicalTrials.gov, NCT02068781.",2020,"On a low, as compared to a high salt intake, MAP was lower, M/I-value was lower and IMMR was greater in both lean and abdominally obese individuals.","['obese individuals', '20 lean and 20 abdominally obese individuals']","['Glucocorticoids', 'excessive salt intake']","['mean arterial pressure (MAP; 24h ABPM), insulin-mediated whole body glucose disposal (M/I-value; hyperinsulinemic, euglycemic clamp technique), IMMR (contrast enhanced ultrasound), osmolyte and water balance, and excretion of mineralocorticoids, glucocorticoids, and amino and organic acids', 'IMMR', 'excretion of glucocorticoids and of amino acids', 'Ln IMMR', 'blood pressure and decreases insulin-mediated glucose disposal']","[{'cui': 'C0028754', 'cui_str': 'Obesity'}, {'cui': 'C0237401', 'cui_str': 'Individual (person)'}]","[{'cui': 'C3540778', 'cui_str': 'Glucocorticoids'}, {'cui': 'C0442802', 'cui_str': 'Excessive (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0036140', 'cui_str': 'Salts'}]","[{'cui': 'C0428886', 'cui_str': 'Mean Arterial Pressure'}, {'cui': 'C0024779', 'cui_str': 'Map'}, {'cui': 'C0202098', 'cui_str': 'Insulin measurement (procedure)'}, {'cui': 'C0086597', 'cui_str': 'Mediate (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0444584', 'cui_str': 'Whole body (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0337438', 'cui_str': 'Glucose measurement (procedure)'}, {'cui': 'C1273875', 'cui_str': 'Values (community)'}, {'cui': 'C0079318', 'cui_str': 'Glucose Clamp'}, {'cui': 'C0025664', 'cui_str': 'techniques'}, {'cui': 'C0220934', 'cui_str': 'ultrasound'}, {'cui': 'C0043047', 'cui_str': 'Water'}, {'cui': 'C0179199', 'cui_str': 'Balance (physical object)'}, {'cui': 'C0221102', 'cui_str': 'Excretory function (observable entity)'}, {'cui': 'C3541395', 'cui_str': 'Mineralocorticoids'}, {'cui': 'C3540778', 'cui_str': 'Glucocorticoids'}, {'cui': 'C3541407', 'cui_str': 'Organic acids'}, {'cui': 'C3539946', 'cui_str': 'Amino acids'}, {'cui': 'C0005823', 'cui_str': 'Blood Pressure'}, {'cui': 'C0547047', 'cui_str': 'Decrease (qualifier value)'}]",20.0,0.0497281,"On a low, as compared to a high salt intake, MAP was lower, M/I-value was lower and IMMR was greater in both lean and abdominally obese individuals.","[{'ForeName': 'Monica Tj', 'Initials': 'MT', 'LastName': 'Schütten', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Yvo Ham', 'Initials': 'YH', 'LastName': 'Kusters', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Alfons Jhm', 'Initials': 'AJ', 'LastName': 'Houben', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Hanneke E', 'Initials': 'HE', 'LastName': 'Niessen', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Jos', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': ""Op 't Roodt"", 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Jean Ljm', 'Initials': 'JL', 'LastName': 'Scheijen', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Marjo P', 'Initials': 'MP', 'LastName': 'van de Waardenburg', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Casper G', 'Initials': 'CG', 'LastName': 'Schalkwijk', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Peter W', 'Initials': 'PW', 'LastName': 'de Leeuw', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Coen DA', 'Initials': 'CD', 'LastName': 'Stehouwer', 'Affiliation': ''}]",JCI insight,['10.1172/jci.insight.127530']
574,32215653,"Histological Evaluation of the Skin After Fat Grafting: A Blinded, Randomized, Controlled Clinical Study.","BACKGROUND
Autologous fat graft is often employed to treat body contour defects. There is currently increased interest in the regenerative properties of fat grafting.
OBJECTIVES
The authors evaluated the histological changes of fat grafting in a blinded randomized controlled trial of staged fat grafting-abdominoplasty.
METHODS
Ten women between 24 and 55 years of age with a body mass index <30 kg/m2 and previous cesarean scar were submitted to fat grafting followed by staged abdominoplasty. The C-section scar served as a landmark for standardization of fat grafting site and control. One side of the abdomen was fat grafted and the other was left intact (control). At the time of abdominoplasty, 4 months later, a full-thickness skin sample from each hemi abdomen (fat-grafted area and control) was collected and sent to histological analysis.
RESULTS
All of the fat-grafted samples showed extracellular lipids and signs of fat graft viability, whereas no such changes occurred in the control group. There were no statistically significant differences in fat-grafted vs control samples regarding skin inflammatory infiltrate (P = 0.582), dermis thickness (P = 0.973), vascular density (P = 0.326), and amount of elastic fibers (P = 1).

576,32222326,Impacting child health outcomes in congenital heart disease: Cluster randomized controlled trial protocol of in-clinic physical activity counselling.,"BACKGROUND
Most (>90%) children with congenital health defects are not active enough for optimal health. Proactively promoting physical activity during every clinic visit is recommended, but rarely implemented due to a lack of appropriate resources.
METHODS
This cluster randomized controlled trial will implement an evidence-based, multi-faceted physical activity intervention. All eligible patients at small (London, ON), medium (Ottawa, ON) and large (Edmonton, AB) pediatric cardiac clinics will be approached, with randomization to intervention/control by clinic and week. Intervention patients will be counselled with 5 key physical activity messages, have questions about physical activity answered, and have access to a custom web site with personalized activity suggestions and support from a Registered Kinesiologist. The primary outcome is daily physical activity (number of steps, minutes of moderate-to-vigorous activity) assessed via pedometer one week per month for 6-months. Standardized questionnaires assess activity motivation and quality of life at baseline and end of study. Healthcare outcomes will be clinic visit time and contacts for physical activity concerns. Repeated measures ANCOVA will compare control/intervention pedometer outcomes, adjusting for covariates (alpha=0.05).
CONCLUSIONS
This trial aims to determine whether providing resources and protocols enables clinicians to counsel about physical activity as part of every pediatric cardiology appointment. Evaluations of healthcare system impact and intervention delivery in small, medium and large clinics will assess applicability for implementation in all pediatric cardiac clinics. The impact on physical activity motivation and participation will evaluate the effectiveness of this standardized approach for increasing physical activity in children with congenital health defects.",2020,"Evaluations of healthcare system impact and intervention delivery in small, medium and large clinics will assess applicability for implementation in all pediatric cardiac clinics.","['children with congenital health defects', 'Most (>90%) children with congenital health defects', 'all pediatric cardiac clinics', 'All eligible patients at small (London, ON), medium (Ottawa, ON) and large (Edmonton, AB) pediatric cardiac clinics', 'congenital heart disease']",['clinic physical activity counselling'],"['daily physical activity (number of steps, minutes of moderate-to-vigorous activity) assessed via pedometer one week per month for 6-months', 'Standardized questionnaires assess activity motivation and quality of life']","[{'cui': 'C0008059', 'cui_str': 'Child'}, {'cui': 'C1744681', 'cui_str': 'Congenital (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0018684', 'cui_str': 'Health'}, {'cui': 'C0243067', 'cui_str': 'defects'}, {'cui': 'C0439083', 'cui_str': '>90 (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0030755', 'cui_str': 'Pediatrics'}, {'cui': 'C0442592', 'cui_str': 'Clinic (environment)'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C0547044', 'cui_str': 'Lesser (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0023973', 'cui_str': 'London'}, {'cui': 'C0439536', 'cui_str': 'Medium (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C1704243', 'cui_str': 'Greater (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0152021', 'cui_str': 'Congenital heart disease (disorder)'}]","[{'cui': 'C0442592', 'cui_str': 'Clinic (environment)'}, {'cui': 'C0015259', 'cui_str': 'Physical Activity'}, {'cui': 'C0010210', 'cui_str': 'Counseling'}]","[{'cui': 'C0332173', 'cui_str': 'Daily (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0015259', 'cui_str': 'Physical Activity'}, {'cui': 'C0237753', 'cui_str': 'Number (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C1261552', 'cui_str': 'Step'}, {'cui': 'C0439232', 'cui_str': 'min (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0205081', 'cui_str': 'Moderate (severity modifier) (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0441655', 'cui_str': 'Activity (observable entity)'}, {'cui': 'C1442452', 'cui_str': 'One week'}, {'cui': 'C0332177', 'cui_str': 'Monthly (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0439231', 'cui_str': 'month (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0034394', 'cui_str': 'Questionnaires'}, {'cui': 'C0026605', 'cui_str': 'Motivation'}, {'cui': 'C0034380'}]",,0.168498,"Evaluations of healthcare system impact and intervention delivery in small, medium and large clinics will assess applicability for implementation in all pediatric cardiac clinics.","[{'ForeName': 'Olivia', 'Initials': 'O', 'LastName': 'Lemire', 'Affiliation': ""Children's Hospital of Eastern Ontario Research Institute, Ottawa, Ontario, Canada; University of Ottawa, Faculty of Medicine, Ottawa, Ontario, Canada.""}, {'ForeName': 'Jenna', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Yaraskavitch', 'Affiliation': ""Children's Hospital of Eastern Ontario Research Institute, Ottawa, Ontario, Canada.""}, {'ForeName': 'Jane', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Lougheed', 'Affiliation': ""Children's Hospital of Eastern Ontario Research Institute, Ottawa, Ontario, Canada; Children's Hospital of Eastern Ontario, Ottawa, Ontario, Canada.""}, {'ForeName': 'Andrew S', 'Initials': 'AS', 'LastName': 'Mackie', 'Affiliation': ""Stollery Children's Hospital, Department of Pediatrics, Division of Cardiology, University of Alberta, Edmonton, Alberta, Canada.""}, {'ForeName': 'Kambiz', 'Initials': 'K', 'LastName': 'Norozi', 'Affiliation': ""Department of Pediatrics, Pediatric Cardiology, Schulich School of Medicine and Dentistry, Western University & Children's Health Research Institute, London, Ontario, Canada; Paediatric Cardiology and Intensive Care Medicine, Medical School Hannover, Germany.""}, {'ForeName': 'Jennifer', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Graham', 'Affiliation': 'Canadian Congenital Heart Alliance, Toronto, Ontario, Canada.'}, {'ForeName': 'Patricia E', 'Initials': 'PE', 'LastName': 'Longmuir', 'Affiliation': ""Children's Hospital of Eastern Ontario Research Institute, Ottawa, Ontario, Canada; University of Ottawa, Faculty of Medicine, Ottawa, Ontario, Canada.

577,32215577,Outcomes of Observation vs Stereotactic Ablative Radiation for Oligometastatic Prostate Cancer: The ORIOLE Phase 2 Randomized Clinical Trial.,"Importance
Complete metastatic ablation of oligometastatic prostate cancer may provide an alternative to early initiation of androgen deprivation therapy (ADT).
Objective
To determine if stereotactic ablative radiotherapy (SABR) improves oncologic outcomes in men with oligometastatic prostate cancer.
Design, Setting, and Participants
The Observation vs Stereotactic Ablative Radiation for Oligometastatic Prostate Cancer (ORIOLE) phase 2 randomized study accrued participants from 3 US radiation treatment facilities affiliated with a university hospital from May 2016 to March 2018 with a data cutoff date of May 20, 2019, for analysis. Of 80 men screened, 54 men with recurrent hormone-sensitive prostate cancer and 1 to 3 metastases detectable by conventional imaging who had not received ADT within 6 months of enrollment or 3 or more years total were randomized.
Interventions
Patients were randomized in a 2:1 ratio to receive SABR or observation.
Main Outcomes and Measures
The primary outcome was progression at 6 months by prostate-specific antigen level increase, progression detected by conventional imaging, symptomatic progression, ADT initiation for any reason, or death. Predefined secondary outcomes were toxic effects of SABR, local control at 6 months with SABR, progression-free survival, Brief Pain Inventory (Short Form)-measured quality of life, and concordance between conventional imaging and prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA)-targeted positron emission tomography in the identification of metastatic disease.
Results
In the 54 men randomized, the median (range) age was 68 (61-70) years for patients allocated to SABR and 68 (64-76) years for those allocated to observation. Progression at 6 months occurred in 7 of 36 patients (19%) receiving SABR and 11 of 18 patients (61%) undergoing observation (P = .005). Treatment with SABR improved median progression-free survival (not reached vs 5.8 months; hazard ratio, 0.30; 95% CI, 0.11-0.81; P = .002). Total consolidation of PSMA radiotracer-avid disease decreased the risk of new lesions at 6 months (16% vs 63%; P = .006). No toxic effects of grade 3 or greater were observed. T-cell receptor sequencing identified significant increased clonotypic expansion following SABR and correlation between baseline clonality and progression with SABR only (0.082085 vs 0.026051; P = .03).
Conclusions and Relevance
Treatment with SABR for oligometastatic prostate cancer improved outcomes and was enhanced by total consolidation of disease identified by PSMA-targeted positron emission tomography. SABR induced a systemic immune response, and baseline immune phenotype and tumor mutation status may predict the benefit from SABR. These results underline the importance of prospective randomized investigation of the oligometastatic state with integrated imaging and biological correlates.

578,30789412,Phase II Trial of Eribulin in Patients With Metastatic Hormone Refractory Prostate Cancer: A Trial of the ECOG-ACRIN Cancer Research Group (E5805).,"BACKGROUND
Eribulin mesylate, a synthetic analog of halichondrin B, is a novel tubulin-binding agent that inhibits cancer cell proliferation at low-nanomolar levels.
METHODS
In a multicenter ECOG trial, patients with progressive metastatic CRPC, ECOG 0-2 were treated with eribulin 1.4 mg/m as an IV bolus over 5 minutes on days 1 and 8 of a 21-day cycle. This noncomparative study stratified points to either a chemonaive (CN), prior-taxane (Tax) only, or 2 prior cytotoxic (TCx) chemotherapy arm. The trial was powered to detect a 50% PSA reduction using Consensus Criteria in at least 40% versus 20% (90% power, one-sided α=0.10) for the CN stratum and 25% versus. 10% (power 87%, one-sided α=0.10) for the Tax and TCx strata.
RESULTS
In total, 119 pts received treatment of which 116 were eligible for the primary response determination in this study. Median age 70 years (range, 45 to 88); median number of treatment cycles 4 (range, 1 to 20+); ECOG 0-1 90%. Confirmed PSA response rates (50% decline from baseline) were 29% (90% [18.2%, 41.2%]; P=0.20), 10% (90% [5.2%, 27.1%]; P=1.00), and 4% ([0.2%, 18.3%]; P=0.59) in the chemonaive stratum, the prior-taxane stratum, and the 2-prior-chemotherapy stratum, respectively. Median progression-free survival was 3.5 months (95% CI, 2.0, 5.9), 2.3 months (95% CI, 2.0, 2.9) and 3.7 months (95% CI, 2.1, 4.2) for the chemonaive stratum, the prior-taxane stratum and the 2-prior-chemotherapy stratum, respectively. Nonhematological toxicities of any grade (mainly grade 1 and 2) were fatigue (74%), neuropathy (40%), alopecia (39%), nausea (35%), and anorexia (34%). Common hematological toxicities were decreased leukocytes (75%), decreased neutrophils (72%), and decreased hemoglobin (66%). The most common grade ≥ 3 toxicities were decreased neutrophils (55%), decreased leukocytes (42%), sensory neuropathy (13%), and fatigue (11%). Overall, there was a 4% rate of febrile neutropenia.

579,31428863,Effects of the nontourniquet combined with controlled hypotension technique on pain and long-term prognosis in elderly patients after total knee arthroplasty: a randomized controlled study.,"PURPOSE
The aim of this study was to confirm the alleviating effects of the nontourniquet technique on the postoperative acute and chronic pain of patients after total knee arthroplasty (TKA).
METHODS
122 elderly patients undergoing TKA were randomly divided into two groups: group T (n = 58) and group H (n = 64). An electronic inflatable tourniquet was used during TKA in group T. The patients in group H received controlled hypotension but without tourniquet use during the operation. The numeric rating scale (NRS) score was used to evaluate pain level on day 1, day 2, day 3 and day 7 after the operation, and the incidence of chronic pain was judged at 3-month and 1-year follow-ups, and functional recovery of the knee joint was estimated by the active range of knee joint motion (AROM) at the same time points. Cognitive function was assessed by the montreal cognitive assessment scale (MoCA) for 7 days after operation.
RESULTS
There were no significant differences in the NRS scores and AROM for 7 days after surgery. The incidence rate of chronic pain in group H (25.0%) was lower than that in group T (41.4%) and the AROM in group H was greater at one year follow-up. The MoCA score in group H was lower than that in group T on day 1 and day 2.
CONCLUSION
The nontourniquet combined with controlled hypotension technique can alleviate chronic pain and promote the long-term rehabilitation of patients after TKA.",2019,"The MoCA score in group H was lower than that in group T on day 1 and day 2.

580,31435739,Rocuronium Bromide Intravenous Solution Maruishi® is more suitable than ESLAX Intravenous® during rapid-sequence induction of anesthesia.,"PURPOSE
Rocuronium Bromide Intravenous Solution® (Maruishi Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd, Osaka, Japan) is a newly developed generic drug and we have noticed that compared with conventional rocuronium formulations [e.g. Esmeron (Eslax), MSD Co. Ltd., Tokyo, Japan], rocuronium Maruishi appeared to cause less pain or withdrawal movement. The aim of this study was to assess the hypothesis that the injection of rocuronium Maruishi causes less body movement than rocuronium MSD does, during rapid-sequence induction of anesthesia.
METHODS
Sixty patients were allocated randomly to one of two groups. In one group, rocuronium MSD was used and in the other group, rocuronium Maruishi was used. After induction of general anesthesia, a test drug (containing rocuronium) 0.9 mg/kg was injected. Patient's withdrawal movement was graded with the scale. Primary outcome measure was the incidence of moderate or severe movement after the injection of rocuronium. Secondary outcome measure was the degree of movement between the groups.
RESULTS
Moderate or severe withdrawal movement was observed after the injection of rocuronium MSD in 11 of 30 patients (37%) and after the injection of rocuronium Maruishi in 3 of 30 patients (10%). There was a significant difference in the incidence between the groups (P = 0.013, 95% CI for difference 26-28%). The degree of movement was also significantly greater for rocuronium MSD than for rocuronium Maruishi (P = 0.015).

Difficult weaning frequently develops in ventilated patients and is associated with poor outcome. In neurally adjusted ventilatory assist, the ventilator is controlled by diaphragm electrical activity, which has been shown to improve patient-ventilator interaction. The objective of this study was to compare neurally adjusted ventilatory assist and pressure support ventilation in patients difficult to wean from mechanical ventilation.

In this nonblinded randomized clinical trial, difficult-to-wean patients (n = 99) were randomly assigned to neurally adjusted ventilatory assist or pressure support ventilation mode. The primary outcome was the duration of weaning. Secondary outcomes included the proportion of successful weaning, patient-ventilator asynchrony, ventilator-free days, and mortality. Weaning duration was calculated as 28 days for patients under mechanical ventilation at day 28 or deceased before day 28 without successful weaning.
RESULTS
Weaning duration in all patients was statistically significant shorter in the neurally adjusted ventilatory assist group (n = 47) compared with the pressure support ventilation group (n = 52; 3.0 [1.2 to 8.0] days vs. 7.4 [2.0 to 28.0], mean difference: -5.5 [95% CI, -9.2 to -1.4], P = 0.039). Post hoc sensitivity analysis also showed that the neurally adjusted ventilatory assist group had shorter weaning duration (hazard ratio, 0.58; 95% CI, 0.34 to 0.98). The proportion of patients with successful weaning from invasive mechanical ventilation was higher in neurally adjusted ventilatory assist (33 of 47 patients, 70%) compared with pressure support ventilation (25 of 52 patients, 48%; respiratory rate for neurally adjusted ventilatory assist: 1.46 [95% CI, 1.04 to 2.05], P = 0.026). The number of ventilator-free days at days 14 and 28 was statistically significantly higher in neurally adjusted ventilatory assist compared with pressure support ventilation. Neurally adjusted ventilatory assist improved patient ventilator interaction. Mortality and length of stay in the intensive care unit and in the hospital were similar among groups.
CONCLUSIONS
In patients difficult to wean, neurally adjusted ventilatory assist decreased the duration of weaning and increased ventilator-free days.",2020,Weaning duration in all patients was statistically significant shorter in the neurally adjusted ventilatory assist group (n = 47) compared with the pressure support ventilation group (n = 52,"['patients difficult to wean from mechanical ventilation', 'wean patients (n = 99', 'ventilated patients', 'Difficult Weaning']","['neurally adjusted ventilatory assist and pressure support ventilation', 'Neurally Adjusted Ventilatory Assist versus Pressure Support Ventilation', 'neurally adjusted ventilatory assist or pressure support ventilation mode', 'pressure support ventilation']","['shorter weaning duration', 'proportion of successful weaning, patient-ventilator asynchrony, ventilator-free days, and mortality', 'proportion of patients with successful weaning from invasive mechanical ventilation', 'Mortality and length of stay', 'patient ventilator interaction', 'respiratory rate', 'number of ventilator-free days', 'Weaning duration', 'duration of weaning', 'pressure support ventilation', 'duration of weaning and increased ventilator-free days']","[{'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C0332218', 'cui_str': 'With difficulty'}, {'cui': 'C0043084', 'cui_str': 'Weaning'}, {'cui': 'C0199470', 'cui_str': 'Mechanically assisted ventilation'}]","[{'cui': 'C3178854', 'cui_str': 'Neurally Adjusted Ventilatory Assist'}, {'cui': 'C0419008', 'cui_str': 'Pressure support'}, {'cui': 'C2945579', 'cui_str': 'Ventilation, function (observable entity)'}]","[{'cui': 'C1806781', 'cui_str': 'Short (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0043084', 'cui_str': 'Weaning'}, {'cui': 'C2926735', 'cui_str': 'Duration'}, {'cui': 'C1272703', 'cui_str': 'Successful'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C0087153', 'cui_str': 'Ventilators'}, {'cui': 'C0439228', 'cui_str': 'day (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0026566', 'cui_str': 'mortality'}, {'cui': 'C1868981', 'cui_str': 'Invasive mechanical ventilation'}, {'cui': 'C0023303', 'cui_str': 'Length of Stay'}, {'cui': 'C0687133', 'cui_str': 'Drug Interactions'}, {'cui': 'C0231832', 'cui_str': 'Respiration Rate'}, {'cui': 'C0237753', 'cui_str': 'Number (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0419008', 'cui_str': 'Pressure support'}, {'cui': 'C2945579', 'cui_str': 'Ventilation, function (observable entity)'}, {'cui': 'C0205217', 'cui_str': 'Increased (qualifier value)'}]",99.0,0.15027,Weaning duration in all patients was statistically significant shorter in the neurally adjusted ventilatory assist group (n = 47) compared with the pressure support ventilation group (n = 52,"[{'ForeName': 'Ling', 'Initials': 'L', 'LastName': 'Liu', 'Affiliation': 'From the Department of Critical Care Medicine, Zhongda Hospital, School of Medicine, Southeast University, Nanjing, 210009, Jiangsu, China (L.L., X.X., Q.S., Y.

582,32221866,Efficacy and Safety of Diclofenac + Capsaicin Gel in Patients with Acute Back/Neck Pain: A Multicenter Randomized Controlled Study.,"INTRODUCTION
Back and neck pain are common musculoskeletal disorders. Topical non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are frequently used to reduce pain and inflammation with fewer systemic side effects and drug interactions compared with oral NSAIDs. This study assessed efficacy and tolerability of a topical combination of capsaicin + diclofenac to treat acute back/neck pain.
METHODS
In a randomized, double-blind, controlled, multicenter, parallel group trial, 746 patients were treated twice-daily for 5 days with diclofenac 2% + capsaicin 0.075%, diclofenac 2%, capsaicin 0.075% or placebo. Efficacy assessments included change and area under the curve in pain on movement for the worst procedure (POM WP ), change in pressure algometry, and number of patients with decrease in POM WP of ≥ 30% and ≥ 50%. Adverse events (AEs) were recorded.
RESULTS
Change in POM WP between baseline and day 2 evening, 1 h after drug application, demonstrates superiority of the combination (- 3.05 cm) versus diclofenac alone (- 2.33 cm) and placebo (- 2.45 cm), but not capsaicin alone (- 3.26 cm). AEs were consistent with known safety profiles.
CONCLUSION
Capsaicin alone and capsaicin + diclofenac showed superior benefit compared with placebo. However, diclofenac alone demonstrated efficacy comparable with placebo, and therefore its addition to capsaicin added no increased pain relief over capsaicin alone.

583,32222134,Vericiguat in Patients with Heart Failure and Reduced Ejection Fraction.,"BACKGROUND
The effect of vericiguat, a novel oral soluble guanylate cyclase stimulator, in patients with heart failure and reduced ejection fraction who had recently been hospitalized or had received intravenous diuretic therapy is unclear.
METHODS
In this phase 3, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial, we assigned 5050 patients with chronic heart failure (New York Heart Association class II, III, or IV) and an ejection fraction of less than 45% to receive vericiguat (target dose, 10 mg once daily) or placebo, in addition to guideline-based medical therapy. The primary outcome was a composite of death from cardiovascular causes or first hospitalization for heart failure.
RESULTS
Over a median of 10.8 months, a primary-outcome event occurred in 897 of 2526 patients (35.5%) in the vericiguat group and in 972 of 2524 patients (38.5%) in the placebo group (hazard ratio, 0.90; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.82 to 0.98; P = 0.02). A total of 691 patients (27.4%) in the vericiguat group and 747 patients (29.6%) in the placebo group were hospitalized for heart failure (hazard ratio, 0.90; 95% CI, 0.81 to 1.00). Death from cardiovascular causes occurred in 414 patients (16.4%) in the vericiguat group and in 441 patients (17.5%) in the placebo group (hazard ratio, 0.93; 95% CI, 0.81 to 1.06). The composite of death from any cause or hospitalization for heart failure occurred in 957 patients (37.9%) in the vericiguat group and in 1032 patients (40.9%) in the placebo group (hazard ratio, 0.90; 95% CI, 0.83 to 0.98; P = 0.02). Symptomatic hypotension occurred in 9.1% of the patients in the vericiguat group and in 7.9% of the patients in the placebo group (P = 0.12), and syncope occurred in 4.0% of the patients in the vericiguat group and in 3.5% of the patients in the placebo group (P = 0.30).
CONCLUSIONS
Among patients with high-risk heart failure, the incidence of death from cardiovascular causes or hospitalization for heart failure was lower among those who received vericiguat than among those who received placebo.

584,32108181,Eating breakfast and avoiding late-evening snacking sustains lipid oxidation.,"Circadian (daily) regulation of metabolic pathways implies that food may be metabolized differentially over the daily cycle. To test that hypothesis, we monitored the metabolism of older subjects in a whole-room respiratory chamber over two separate 56-h sessions in a random crossover design. In one session, one of the 3 daily meals was presented as breakfast, whereas in the other session, a nutritionally equivalent meal was presented as a late-evening snack. The duration of the overnight fast was the same for both sessions. Whereas the two sessions did not differ in overall energy expenditure, the respiratory exchange ratio (RER) was different during sleep between the two sessions. Unexpectedly, this difference in RER due to daily meal timing was not due to daily differences in physical activity, sleep disruption, or core body temperature (CBT). Rather, we found that the daily timing of nutrient availability coupled with daily/circadian control of metabolism drives a switch in substrate preference such that the late-evening Snack Session resulted in significantly lower lipid oxidation (LO) compared to the Breakfast Session. Therefore, the timing of meals during the day/night cycle affects how ingested food is oxidized or stored in humans, with important implications for optimal eating habits.",2020,"Whereas the two sessions did not differ in overall energy expenditure, the respiratory exchange ratio (RER) was different during sleep between the two sessions.",[],['Eating breakfast and avoiding late-evening snacking sustains lipid oxidation'],"['overall energy expenditure, the respiratory exchange ratio (RER', 'physical activity, sleep disruption, or core body temperature (CBT', 'RER', 'duration of the overnight fast', 'lipid oxidation (LO']",[],"[{'cui': 'C0013470', 'cui_str': 'Food Intake'}, {'cui': 'C4553621', 'cui_str': 'With breakfast'}, {'cui': 'C0205087', 'cui_str': 'Late (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0587117', 'cui_str': 'Evening (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C3494314', 'cui_str': 'Snacking'}, {'cui': 'C0023779', 'cui_str': 'Lipids'}, {'cui': 'C0030011', 'cui_str': 'Oxidation, function (observable entity)'}]","[{'cui': 'C0282416', 'cui_str': 'Overall'}, {'cui': 'C0014272', 'cui_str': 'Energy Expenditure'}, {'cui': 'C0429702', 'cui_str': 'Respiratory quotient (observable entity)'}, {'cui': 'C0015259', 'cui_str': 'Physical Activity'}, {'cui': 'C0424522', 'cui_str': 'Asleep (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C0332453', 'cui_str': 'Disruption (morphologic abnormality)'}, {'cui': 'C0456240', 'cui_str': 'Core body temperature (observable entity)'}, {'cui': 'C2926735', 'cui_str': 'Duration'}, {'cui': 'C0439583', 'cui_str': 'Overnight (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0456962', 'cui_str': 'Rapidly'}, {'cui': 'C0023779', 'cui_str': 'Lipids'}, {'cui': 'C0030011', 'cui_str': 'Oxidation, function (observable entity)'}]",,0.0309961,"Whereas the two sessions did not differ in overall energy expenditure, the respiratory exchange ratio (RER) was different during sleep between the two sessions.","[{'ForeName': 'Kevin Parsons', 'Initials': 'KP', 'LastName': 'Kelly', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Biological Sciences, Vanderbilt University, Nashville, Tennessee, United States of America.'}, {'ForeName': 'Owen P', 'Initials': 'OP', 'LastName': 'McGuinness', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Molecular Physiology and Biophysics, Vanderbilt University School of Medicine, Nashville, Tennessee, United States of America.'}, {'ForeName': 'Maciej', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Buchowski', 'Affiliation': 'Division of Gastroenterology, Hepatology, & Nutrition, Vanderbilt University Medical Center, Nashville, Tennessee, United States of America.'}, {'ForeName': 'Jacob J', 'Initials': 'JJ', 'LastName': 'Hughey', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Biomedical Informatics, Vanderbilt University Medical Center, Nashville, Tennessee, United States of America.'}, {'ForeName': 'Heidi', 'Initials': 'H', 'LastName': 'Chen', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Biostatistics, Vanderbilt University Medical Center, Nashville, Tennessee, United States of America.'}, {'ForeName': 'James', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Powers', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Medicine, Vanderbilt University Medical Center, Nashville, Tennessee, United States of America.'}, {'ForeName': 'Terry', 'Initials': 'T', 'LastName': 'Page', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Biological Sciences, Vanderbilt University, Nashville, Tennessee, United States of America.'}, {'ForeName': 'Carl Hirschie', 'Initials': 'CH', 'LastName': 'Johnson', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Biological Sciences, Vanderbilt University, Nashville, Tennessee, United States of America.'}]",PLoS biology,['10.1371/journal.pbio.3000622']
585,32217780,Cost-effectiveness of positive airway pressure modalities in obesity hypoventilation syndrome with severe obstructive sleep apnoea.,"BACKGROUND
Obesity hypoventilation syndrome (OHS) is treated with either non-invasive ventilation (NIV) or CPAP, but there are no long-term cost-effectiveness studies comparing the two treatment modalities.
OBJECTIVES
We performed a large, multicentre, randomised, open-label controlled study to determine the comparative long-term cost and effectiveness of NIV versus CPAP in patients with OHS with severe obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) using hospitalisation days as the primary outcome measure.
METHODS
Hospital resource utilisation and within trial costs were evaluated against the difference in effectiveness based on the primary outcome (hospitalisation days/year, transformed and non-transformed in monetary term). Costs and effectiveness were estimated from a log-normal distribution using a Bayesian approach. A secondary analysis by adherence subgroups was performed.
RESULTS
In total, 363 patients were selected, 215 were randomised and 202 were available for the analysis. The median (IQR) follow-up was 3.01 (2.91-3.14) years for NIV group and 3.00 (2.92-3.17) years for CPAP. The mean (SD) Bayesian estimated hospital days was 2.13 (0.73) for CPAP and 1.89 (0.78) for NIV. The mean (SD) Bayesian estimated cost per patient/year in the NIV arm, excluding hospitalisation costs, was €2075.98 (91.6), which was higher than the cost in the CPAP arm of €1219.06 (52.3); mean difference €857.6 (105.5). CPAP was more cost-effective than NIV (99.5% probability) because longer hospital stay in the CPAP arm was compensated for by its lower costs. Similar findings were observed in the high and low adherence subgroups.
CONCLUSION
CPAP is more cost-effective than NIV; therefore, CPAP should be the preferred treatment for patients with OHS with severe OSA.

586,31466618,Natriuretic Peptide Response and Outcomes in Chronic Heart Failure With Reduced Ejection Fraction.,"BACKGROUND
The GUIDE-IT (GUIDing Evidence Based Therapy Using Biomarker Intensified Treatment in Heart Failure) trial demonstrated that a strategy to ""guide"" application of guideline-directed medical therapy (GDMT) by reducing amino-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) was not superior to GDMT alone.
OBJECTIVES
The purpose of this study was to examine the prognostic meaning of NT-proBNP changes following heart failure (HF) therapy intensification relative to the goal NT-proBNP value of 1,000 pg/ml explored in the GUIDE-IT trial.
METHODS
A total of 638 study participants were included who were alive and had available NT-proBNP results 90 days after randomization. Rates of subsequent cardiovascular (CV) death/HF hospitalization or all-cause mortality during follow-up and Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire (KCCQ) overall scores were analyzed.
RESULTS
A total of 198 (31.0%) subjects had an NT-proBNP ≤1,000 pg/ml at 90 days with no difference in achievement of NT-proBNP goal between the biomarker-guided and usual care arms. NT-proBNP ≤1,000 pg/ml by 90 days was associated with longer freedom from CV/HF hospitalization or all-cause mortality (p < 0.001 for both) and lower adjusted hazard of subsequent HF hospitalization/CV death (hazard ratio: 0.26; 95% confidence interval: 0.15 to 0.46; p < 0.001) and all-cause mortality (hazard ratio: 0.34; 95% confidence interval: 0.15 to 0.77; p = 0.009). Regardless of elevated baseline concentration, an NT-proBNP ≤1,000 pg/ml at 90 days was associated with better outcomes and significantly better KCCQ overall scores (p = 0.02).
CONCLUSIONS
Patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction whose NT-proBNP levels decreased to ≤1,000 pg/ml during GDMT had better outcomes. These findings may help to understand the results of the GUIDE-IT trial.

587,31468177,Use of a curved needle to facilitate lateral sagittal infraclavicular block performance: a randomized clinical trial.,"PURPOSE
Failed needle-tip positioning in an ultrasound-guided infraclavicular block can be due to improper needle insertion point and steep needle insertion angle. Needle pre-curving enables the user to pass the needle with different curved trajectories on approaching the brachial plexus. Aim of the study was to compare curved and non-curved needles as regards the time needed to perform the lateral sagittal infra-clavicular block.
METHODS
Sixty-nine patients undergoing surgery distal to the elbow were randomly allocated to two groups: group A (n = 35), which received ultrasound-guided infraclavicular block using the curved needle; and group B (n = 34), which received the infraclavicular block using the non-curved needle. The primary outcome measure was the time needed to perform the infraclavicular block. Anesthetist's experience with the curved vs. non-curved needle was noted.
RESULTS
Mean (SD) recognition time (120 ± 48 vs. 179 ± 72 s, P = 0.0002) and injection time (54 ± 23 vs. 88 ± 36 s, P = 0.0001) were shorter in group A compared to group B. Median (IQR) procedure pain score was less in group A 2 (1-2) than in group B 2 (2-3); P = 0.001. Median (IQR) satisfaction score was higher with regards to the curved needle 4 (4-5) than non-curved needle 3 (3-4) in performing infraclavicular blockade; P = 0.001.
CONCLUSION
The use of a curved needle reduces the time required to perform the lateral sagittal infraclavicular block. The curved needle provides less procedure pain and higher satisfaction levels among anesthetists than the non-curved needle.

In this randomized controlled study, 108 male and female United States veterans of the Iraq and Afghanistan conflicts with current, severe PTSD and recurrent, deployment-related nightmares were randomized to six sessions of IR + CBT-I (n = 55) or CBT-I (n = 53). Primary outcomes were measured with the Nightmare Frequency Questionnaire (NFQ) and Nightmare Distress Questionnaire (NDQ).
RESULTS
Improvement with treatment was significant (29% with reduction in nightmare frequency and 22% with remission). Overall, IR + CBT-I was not superior to CBT-I (NFQ: -0.12; 95% confidence interval = -0.87 to 0.63; likelihood ratio chi square = 4.7(3), P = .2); NDQ: 1.5, 95% confidence interval = -1.4 to 4.4; likelihood ratio chi square = 7.3, P = .06).
CONCLUSIONS
Combining IR with CBT-I conferred no advantage overall. Further research is essential to examine the possibly greater benefit of adding IR to CBT-I for some subgroups of veterans with PTSD.

589,31271654,Feasibility of Delivering a Tailored Intervention for Advance Care Planning in Primary Care Practice.,"BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES
To determine the feasibility of conducting a cluster randomized controlled trial providing individualized feedback reports to increase advance care planning (ACP) engagement in the primary care setting.
DESIGN
Pilot cluster randomized controlled trial.
SETTING
Two primary care practices selected for geographic colocation.
PARTICIPANTS
Adults aged 55 years and older.
INTERVENTION
Brief assessment of readiness to engage in (stage of change for) three ACP behaviors (healthcare agent assignment, communication with agent about quality vs quantity of life, and living will completion) generating an individualized feedback report, plus a stage-matched brochure.
MEASURES
Patient recruitment and retention, intervention delivery, baseline characteristics, and stage of change movement.
RESULTS
Recruitment rates differed by practice. Several baseline sociodemographic characteristics differed between the 38 intervention and 41 control participants, including employment status, education, and communication with healthcare agent. Feedback was successfully delivered to all intervention participants, and over 90% of participants completed a 2-month follow-up. More intervention participants demonstrated progression in readiness than did control participants, without testing for statistical significance.
CONCLUSIONS
This pilot demonstrates opportunities and challenges of performing a clustered randomized controlled trial in primary care practices. Differences in the two practice populations highlight the challenges of matching sites. There was a signal for behavior change in the intervention group.

590,32211883,Five-year follow-up of patients enrolled in the NEAT 001/ANRS 143 randomized clinical trial: NEAT 001/ANRS 143 LONG TERM study.,"BACKGROUND
Few long-term data are available in subjects having initiated ART with an NRTI-sparing regimen.
OBJECTIVES
Outcomes of subjects enrolled in the NEAT 001/ANRS 143 randomized clinical trial (comparing ritonavir-boosted darunavir + raltegravir versus ritonavir-boosted darunavir + tenofovir disoproxil fumarate/emtricitabine) were retrospectively collected, through anonymized electronic case report forms, up to 6 years post-enrolment.
METHODS
The last NEAT 001 visit (Week 96) was conducted in 745/805 randomized subjects (363/401 ritonavir-boosted darunavir + raltegravir and 382/404 ritonavir-boosted darunavir + tenofovir disoproxil fumarate/emtricitabine). Of these, 430 were enrolled in NEAT 001/ANRS 143 LONG TERM (NLT) study (201 raltegravir, 229 tenofovir disoproxil fumarate/emtricitabine), with a median follow-up of 44.4 months.
RESULTS
During NLT follow-up, the proportion of AIDS, non-AIDS events, virological rebound and serious adverse events, discontinuation for virological failure and for adverse events did not differ between groups; discontinuations for virological failure since NEAT 001 inclusion were more frequent in subjects with baseline CD4 <200 cells/mm3 (11.9% versus 5.3%; P = 0.077). At last follow-up, a quarter of subjects (22.2% for ritonavir-boosted darunavir + raltegravir and 29.7% for ritonavir-boosted darunavir + tenofovir disoproxil fumarate/emtricitabine) were still receiving their initial regimen. Integrase inhibitor exposure was not associated with weight gain (P = 0.48), while tenofovir disoproxil fumarate exposure was associated with a trend to higher creatinine increase (P = 0.067).
CONCLUSIONS
After a median of 5.6 years, subjects initiating ritonavir-boosted darunavir + raltegravir or ritonavir-boosted darunavir + tenofovir disoproxil fumarate/emtricitabine experienced few serious clinical adverse events. Most discontinuations were for reasons unrelated to adverse events or virological failure.",2020,"Integrase inhibitor exposure was not associated with weight gain (P = 0.48), while tenofovir disoproxil fumarate exposure was associated with a trend to higher creatinine increase (P = 0.067).

591,31154298,"Electronic Alerts for Acute Kidney Injury Amelioration (ELAIA-1): a completely electronic, multicentre, randomised controlled trial: design and rationale.","INTRODUCTION
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is common among hospitalised patients and under-recognised by providers and yet carries a significant risk of morbidity and mortality. Electronic alerts for AKI have become more common despite a lack of strong evidence of their benefits. We designed a multicentre, randomised, controlled trial to evaluate the effectiveness of AKI alerts. Our aim is to highlight several challenges faced in the design of this trial, which uses electronic screening, enrolment, randomisation, intervention and data collection.
METHODS AND ANALYSIS
The design and implementation of an electronic alert system for AKI was a reiterative process involving several challenges and limitations set by the confines of the electronic medical record system. The trial will electronically identify and randomise 6030 adults with AKI at six hospitals over a 1.5-2 year period to usual care versus an electronic alert containing an AKI-specific order set. Our primary outcome will be a composite of AKI progression, inpatient dialysis and inpatient death within 14 days of randomisation. During a 1-month pilot in the medical intensive care unit of Yale New Haven Hospital, we have demonstrated feasibility of automating enrolment and data collection. Feedback from providers exposed to the alerts was used to continually improve alert clarity, user friendliness and alert specificity through refined inclusion and exclusion criteria.
ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION
This study has been approved by the appropriate ethics committees for each of our study sites. Our study qualified for a waiver of informed consent as it presents no more than minimal risk and cannot be feasibly conducted in the absence of a waiver. We are committed to open dissemination of our data through clinicaltrials.gov and submission of results to the NIH data sharing repository. Results of our trial will be submitted for publication in a peer-reviewed journal.

592,31331296,Polyhydramnios among women in a cluster-randomized trial of ultrasound during prenatal care within five low and low-middle income countries: a secondary analysis of the first look study.,"BACKGROUND
In many low and low-middle income countries, the incidence of polyhydramnios is unknown, in part because ultrasound technology is not routinely used. Our objective was to report the incidence of polyhydramnios in five low and low-middle income countries, to determine maternal characteristics associated with polyhydramnios, and report pregnancy and neonatal outcomes.
METHODS
We performed a secondary analysis of the First Look Study, a multi-national, cluster-randomized trial of ultrasound during prenatal care. We evaluated all women enrolled from Guatemala, Pakistan, Zambia, Kenya and the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) who received an examination by prenatal ultrasound. We used pairwise site comparisons with Tukey-Kramer adjustment and multivariable logistic models with general estimating equations to control for cluster-level effects. The diagnosis of polyhydramnios was confrimed by an U.S. based radiologist in a majority of cases (62%).
RESULTS
We identified 305/18,640 (1.6%) cases of polyhydramnios. 229 (75%) cases were from the DRC, with an incidence of 10%. A higher percentage of women with polyhydramnios experienced obstructed labor (7% vs 4%) and fetal malposition (4% vs 2%). Neonatal death was more common when polyhydramnios was present (OR 2.43; CI 1.15, 5.13).
CONCLUSIONS
Polyhydramnios occured in these low and low-middle income countries at a rate similar to high-income contries except in the DRC where the incidence was 10%. Polyhydramnios was associated with obstructed labor, fetal malposition, and neonatal death.

593,32210365,Clinical activity of a htert (vx-001) cancer vaccine as post-chemotherapy maintenance immunotherapy in patients with stage IV non-small cell lung cancer: final results of a randomised phase 2 clinical trial.,"BACKGROUND
The cancer vaccine Vx-001, which targets the universal tumour antigen TElomerase Reverse Transcriptase (TERT), can mount specific Vx-001/TERT 572 CD8 + cytotoxic T cells; this immune response is associated with improved overall survival (OS) in patients with advanced/metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
METHODS
A randomised, double blind, phase 2b trial, in HLA-A*201-positive patients with metastatic, TERT-expressing NSCLC, who did not progress after first-line platinum-based chemotherapy were randomised to receive either Vx-001 or placebo. The primary endpoint of the trial was OS.
RESULTS
Two hundred and twenty-one patients were randomised and 190 (101 and 89 patients in the placebo and the Vx-001 arm, respectively) were analysed for efficacy. There was not treatment-related toxicity >grade 2. The study did not meet its primary endpoint (median OS 11.3 and 14.3 months for the placebo and the Vx-001, respectively; p = 0.86) whereas the median Time to Treatment Failure (TTF) was 3.5 and 3.6 months, respectively. Disease control for >6months was observed in 30 (33.7%) and 26 (25.7%) patients treated with Vx-001 and placebo, respectively. There was no documented objective CR or PR. Long lasting TERT-specific immune response was observed in 29.2% of vaccinated patients who experienced a significantly longer OS compared to non-responders (21.3 and 13.4 months, respectively; p = 0.004).
CONCLUSION
Vx-001 could induce specific CD8 + immune response but failed to meet its primary endpoint. Subsequent studies have to be focused on the identification and treatment of subgroups of patients able to mount an effective immunological response to Vx-001.

594,30470978,The Effects of the Nurse Navigation Program in Promoting Colorectal Cancer Screening Behaviors: a Randomized Controlled Trial.,"Although screening programs are known and recommended for the early detection of colorectal cancer (CRC), the screening rates for the fecal occult blood test (FOBT) and colonoscopy are very low among adult individuals. Navigation programs, also known as individualized counseling, have recently begun to be used for increasing screening rates. The purpose of this study was to compare the efficacy of the Nurse Navigation Program versus usual care on CRC screening participation and movement in stage of adoption for CRC screening and to examine perceived benefits of and barriers to CRC screening. This study was designed in line with a pre- and posttest two-group methodology. A total of 110 participants (55 nurse-navigated and 55 non-navigated patients) were studied. Data were collected using the following three tools: a sociodemographic information form, the Harvard Colorectal Cancer Risk Assessment Tool, and Instruments to Measure Colorectal Cancer Screening Benefits and Barriers. Following the Nurse Navigation Program, the FOBT (82 and 84%, respectively) and colonoscopy completion rates (15 and 22%, respectively) were significantly higher in the nurse-navigated group than in the non-navigated group at 3 and 6 months follow-up. Following the program, the benefit perceptions of the nurse-navigated group about CRC screening were improved, and their barrier perceptions were reduced. The results showed that the Nurse Navigation Program had significant effects on CRC screening behavior and health-related beliefs concerning CRC screening. Further assessment of the Nurse Navigation Program in different groups should be performed to observe its effects.",2020,The results showed that the Nurse Navigation Program had significant effects on CRC screening behavior and health-related beliefs concerning CRC screening.,"['Colorectal Cancer Screening Behaviors', '110 participants (55 nurse-navigated and 55 non-navigated patients']","['Nurse Navigation Program versus usual care', 'Nurse Navigation Program']","['colonoscopy completion rates', 'CRC screening behavior and health-related beliefs concerning CRC screening']","[{'cui': 'C0346629', 'cui_str': 'Malignant tumor of large intestine (disorder)'}, {'cui': 'C0220908', 'cui_str': 'Screening'}, {'cui': 'C0004927', 'cui_str': 'Behavior'}, {'cui': 'C4517536', 'cui_str': '110 (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0028661', 'cui_str': 'Personnel, Nursing'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}]","[{'cui': 'C0028661', 'cui_str': 'Personnel, Nursing'}, {'cui': 'C2728259', 'cui_str': 'Program'}]","[{'cui': 'C0009378', 'cui_str': 'Endoscopy of colon'}, {'cui': 'C0170127', 'cui_str': 'Calcibiotic Root Canal Sealer'}, {'cui': 'C0220908', 'cui_str': 'Screening'}, {'cui': 'C0004927', 'cui_str': 'Behavior'}, {'cui': 'C0018684', 'cui_str': 'Health'}, {'cui': 'C0004951', 'cui_str': 'Beliefs'}]",110.0,0.0176525,The results showed that the Nurse Navigation Program had significant effects on CRC screening behavior and health-related beliefs concerning CRC screening.,"[{'ForeName': 'Elif', 'Initials': 'E', 'LastName': 'Temucin', 'Affiliation': 'Nursing Faculty, Oncology Nursing Department, University of Health Sciences, Istanbul, Turkey. temucinelif@gmail.com.'}, {'ForeName': 'Nursen O', 'Initials': 'NO', 'LastName': 'Nahcivan', 'Affiliation': 'Florence Nightingale Nursing Faculty, Public Health Nursing Department, Istanbul University, Istanbul, Turkey.'}]",Journal of cancer education : the official journal of the American Association for Cancer Education,['10.1007/s13187-018-1448-z']
595,31206313,Simvastatin Improves Neutrophil Function and Clinical Outcomes in Pneumonia. A Pilot Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial.,"Rationale: Population studies suggest improved sepsis outcomes with statins, but the results of randomized controlled trials in patients with sepsis and organ dysfunction in critical care settings have broadly been negative. In vitro data suggest that statins modulate age-related neutrophil functions, improving neutrophil responses to infection, but only in older patients and at high doses. Objectives: To determine if high-dose simvastatin improves neutrophil functions and is safe and tolerated in hospitalized older adults with community-acquired pneumonia with sepsis (CAP + S) not admitted to critical care. Methods: We conducted a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled pilot study of simvastatin 80 mg or placebo for 7 days for patients with CAP + S aged 55 years or older admitted to a secondary care hospital. The Day 4 primary endpoint was change in neutrophil extracellular trap formation (NETosis). Day 4 secondary endpoints included neutrophil chemotaxis, safety and tolerability, Sequential Organ Failure Assessment score, mortality, readmission, and markers of tissue degradation/inflammation. Measurements and Main Results: Four days of simvastatin adjuvant therapy in patients with CAP + S was associated with improvements in systemic neutrophil function (NETosis and chemotaxis), a reduction in systemic neutrophil elastase burden, and improved Sequential Organ Failure Assessment scores compared with placebo. A post hoc analysis demonstrated that simvastatin therapy was associated with improved hospitalization-free survival compared with placebo. Simvastatin was well tolerated in this elderly and multimorbid patient group with common coprescription of macrolide antibiotics. Conclusions: This pilot study supports high-dose simvastatin as an adjuvant therapy for CAP + S in an older and milder disease cohort than assessed previously. A definitive multicenter study is now warranted in this population to assess the likelihood of benefit and harm.Clinical trial registered with EudraCT (2012-00343-29).",2019,"Four days of simvastatin

596,32212354,Impact on Health-Related Quality of Life of Parenteral Nutrition for Patients with Advanced Cancer Cachexia: Results from a Randomized Controlled Trial.,"BACKGROUND
Malnutrition worsens health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and the prognosis of patients with advanced cancer. This study aimed to assess the clinical benefits of parenteral nutrition (PN) over oral feeding (OF) for patients with advanced cancer cachexia and without intestinal impairment.
MATERIAL AND METHODS
In this prospective multicentric randomized controlled study, patients with advanced cancer and malnutrition were randomly assigned to optimized nutritional care with or without supplemental PN. Zelen's method was used for randomization to facilitate inclusions. Nutritional and performance status and HRQoL using the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer QLQ-C15-PAL questionnaire were evaluated at baseline and monthly until death. Primary endpoint was HRQoL deterioration-free survival (DFS) defined as a definitive deterioration of ≥10 points compared with baseline, or death.
RESULTS
Among the 148 randomized patients, 48 patients were in the experimental arm with PN, 63 patients were in the control arm with OF only, and 37 patients were not included because of early withdrawal or refused consent. In an intent to treat analysis, there was no difference in HRQoL DFS between the PN arm or OF arm for the three targeted dimensions: global health (hazard ratio [HR], 1.31; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.88-1.94; p = .18), physical functioning (HR, 1.58; 95% CI, 1.06-2.35; p = .024), and fatigue (HR, 1.19; 95% CI, 0.80-1.77; p = .40); there was a negative trend for overall survival among patients in the PN arm. In as treated analysis, serious adverse events (mainly infectious) were more frequent in the PN arm than in the OF arm (p = .01).
CONCLUSION
PN improved neither HRQoL nor survival and induced more serious adverse events than OF among patients with advanced cancer and malnutrition. Clinical trial identification number. NCT02151214 IMPLICATIONS FOR PRACTICE: This clinical trial showed that parenteral nutrition improved neither quality of life nor survival and generated more serious adverse events than oral feeding only among patients with advanced cancer cachexia and no intestinal impairment. Parenteral nutrition should not be prescribed for patients with advanced cancer, cachexia, and no intestinal failure when life expectancy is shorter than 3 months.

597,30386978,Communicating Actively Responding Empathically (CARE): Comparison of Communication Training Workshops for Health Professionals Working in Cancer Care.,"Accessing full-day communication skills training can be challenging for health professionals working in cancer care. This study aimed to examine the effectiveness of Communicating Actively, Responding Empathically (CARE Express), a modified 2-h communication skills training course, across measures of health professional confidence, skills and attitudes. Cancer care health professionals (n = 147) were recruited from allied health, nursing and medical disciplines, using a partial randomisation to allocate to three arms: control, two-hour training (CARE Express) and 1-day training (CARE). Perceived confidence and skills were measured by self-report using a purpose-built scale, and written responses to a challenging clinical encounter were obtained at baseline, post-training and three-months post-training. Attitudes toward psychosocial issues were evaluated with the Physician Belief Scale at baseline and 3 months post-training. No changes were observed in the control group (n = 50) from baseline to 3 months follow-up. Participants in the CARE Express (n = 48) and CARE (n = 49) groups had significant improvement in confidence in identifying/responding to emotions between baseline and 3 months post-training (p < 0.001), as well as their attitude toward psychosocial care (p < 0.001). A significant increase in ""acknowledging"" responses from baseline to 3 months was also observed for CARE Express and CARE (p < 0.001), with no difference between groups. CARE Express and CARE resulted in changes in confidence in emotional identification/response, psychosocial focus and communication skills maintained at 3 months post-training.

598,29782696,Routine antenatal ultrasound in low- and middle-income countries: first look - a cluster randomised trial.,"OBJECTIVE
Ultrasound is widely regarded as an important adjunct to antenatal care (ANC) to guide practice and reduce perinatal mortality. We assessed the impact of ANC ultrasound use at health centres in resource-limited countries.
DESIGN
Cluster randomised trial.
SETTING
Clusters within five countries (Democratic Republic of Congo, Guatemala, Kenya, Pakistan, and Zambia) METHODS: Clusters were randomised to standard ANC or standard care plus two ultrasounds and referral for complications. The study trained providers in intervention clusters to perform basic obstetric ultrasounds.
MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES
The primary outcome was a composite of maternal mortality, maternal near-miss mortality, stillbirth, and neonatal mortality.
RESULTS
During the 24-month trial, 28 intervention and 28 control clusters had 24 263 and 23 160 births, respectively; 78% in the intervention clusters received at least one study ultrasound; 60% received two. The prevalence of conditions noted including twins, placenta previa, and abnormal lie was within expected ranges. 9% were referred for an ultrasound-diagnosed condition, and 71% attended the referral. The ANC (RR 1.0 95% CI 1.00, 1.01) and hospital delivery rates for complicated pregnancies (RR 1.03 95% CI 0.89, 1.20) did not differ between intervention and control clusters nor did the composite outcome (RR 1.09 95% CI 0.97, 1.23) or its individual components.
CONCLUSIONS
Despite availability of ultrasound at ANC in the intervention clusters, neither ANC nor hospital delivery for complicated pregnancies increased. The composite outcome and the individual components were not reduced.

599,31209602,Determining changes in bone metabolism after bariatric surgery in postmenopausal women.,"BACKGROUND
Accelerated bone loss is a known complication after bariatric surgery. Bone mineral density has been shown to decrease significantly after Laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB). Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (SG) effects on bone density are largely unknown. This should be considered for those with increased preoperative risk for bone loss, such as postmenopausal females.
METHODS
This prospective clinical trial included postmenopausal patients, with BMI ≥ 35 k/m 2 , being evaluated for either RYGB or SG. Patients with history of osteoporosis, estrogen hormone replacement therapy, active smoking, glucocorticoid use, or weight > 295 lb were excluded. Patients underwent DEXA scans preoperatively and 1 year postoperatively with measurement of total body bone mineral density (BMD) and bone mineral content (BMC) as well as regional site-specific BMD and BMC.
RESULTS
A total of 28 patients were enrolled. 16 (57.1%) patients underwent RYGB and 12 (42.9%) patients underwent SG. Median preoperative BMI was 44.2 k/m 2 (IQR 39.9, 46.6). Median change in BMI at 12 months was - 11.3 k/m 2 (IQR - 12.8, - 7.9). A significant reduction in total body BMC was seen when comparing preoperative measurements to postoperative measurements (2358.32 vs 2280.68 grams; p = 0.002). Regional site BMC and BMD significantly decreased in the ribs and spine postoperatively (p = < 0.02) representing the greatest loss in the axial skeleton. Comparing those who underwent RYGB to SG there was no significant difference between the two groups when evaluating changes in total or regional site BMD.
CONCLUSION

600,32209619,Negative pressure wound therapy compared with standard moist wound care on diabetic foot ulcers in real-life clinical practice: results of the German DiaFu-RCT.,"OBJECTIVES
The aim of the DiaFu study was to evaluate effectiveness and safety of negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) in patients with diabetic foot wounds in clinical practice.
DESIGN
In this controlled clinical superiority trial with blinded outcome assessment patients were randomised in a 1:1 ratio stratified by study site and ulcer severity grade using a web-based-tool.
SETTING
This German national study was conducted in 40 surgical and internal medicine inpatient and outpatient facilities specialised in diabetes foot care.
PARTICIPANTS
368 patients were randomised and 345 participants were included in the modified intention-to-treat (ITT) population. Adult patients suffering from a diabetic foot ulcer at least for 4 weeks and without contraindication for NPWT were allowed to be included.
INTERVENTIONS
NPWT was compared with standard moist wound care (SMWC) according to local standards and guidelines.
PRIMARY AND SECONDARY OUTCOME MEASURES
Primary outcome was wound closure within 16 weeks. Secondary outcomes were wound-related and treatment-related adverse events (AEs), amputations, time until optimal wound bed preparation, wound size and wound tissue composition, pain and quality of life (QoL) within 16 weeks, and recurrences and wound closure within 6 months.
RESULTS
In the ITT population, neither the wound closure rate (difference: n=4 (2.5% (95% CI-4.7% - 9.7%); p=0.53)) nor the time to wound closure (p=0.244) was significantly different between the treatment arms. 191 participants (NPWT 127; SMWC 64) had missing endpoint documentations, premature therapy ends or unauthorised treatment changes. 96 participants in the NPWT arm and 72 participants in the SMWC arm had at least one AE (p=0.007), but only 16 AEs were related to NPWT.
CONCLUSIONS
NPWT was not superior to SMWC in diabetic foot wounds in German clinical practice. Overall, wound closure rate was low. Documentation deficits and deviations from treatment guidelines negatively impacted the outcome wound closure.

601,32209621,Effectiveness of a guided online mindfulness-focused intervention in a student population: Study protocol for a randomised control trial.,"BACKGROUND
Previous studies show that university students experience higher psychological stress than the general population, resulting in increased vulnerability for mental disorders for the student population. Online mindfulness interventions will be delivered to students as a potentially promising and more flexible approach compared to face-to-face interventions with the aim of improving their mental health. This study purposes to investigate the effectiveness of a guided online mindfulness-focused intervention for university students by using both self-reported and psychobiological measures.
METHODS AND ANALYSES
In this multicentre, two-armed randomised controlled trial with a parallel design, a guided version of the online mindfulness-focused intervention 'StudiCare Mindfulness' will be compared with a waitlist control group. In total, 120 participants will be recruited at different universities (of Applied Sciences) in (Neu-) Ulm. Data will be assessed prior to randomisation, after eight weeks (post-intervention) and six months after randomisation (follow-up). The primary outcome measure is mindfulness. The secondary outcome measures include depression, anxiety and stress levels, well-being, interoceptive sensibility, emotion regulation and alexithymia. Psychobiological parameters comprise interoceptive accuracy, hair cortisol and FKBP5 genotype. Sociodemographic variables, treatment expectations, side and adverse side effects, as well as intervention satisfaction and adherence will be assessed. All data analyses will be conducted according to the intention-to-treat principle.
ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION
All study procedures have been approved by the Ethics Committee of Ulm University (application No. 48/18). The findings will be disseminated widely through peer-reviewed publications and conference presentations.

602,32209625,"G-CSF (filgrastim) treatment for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis: protocol for a phase II randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel group, multicentre clinical study (STEMALS-II trial).","INTRODUCTION
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a fatal progressive neurological disorder characterised by a selective degeneration of motor neurons (MNs). Stem cell transplantation is considered as a promising strategy in neurological disorders therapy and the possibility of inducing bone marrow cells (BMCs) to circulate in the peripheral blood is suggested to investigate stem cells migration in degenerated ALS nerve tissues where potentially repair MN damage. Granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) is a growth factor which stimulates haematopoietic progenitor cells, mobilises BMCs into injured brain and it is itself a neurotrophic factor for MN. G-CSF safety in humans has been demonstrated and many observations suggest that it may affect neural cells. Therefore, we decided to use G-CSF to mobilise BMCs into the peripheral circulation in patients with ALS, planning a clinical trial to evaluate the effect of G-CSF administration in ALS patients compared with placebo.
METHODS AND ANALYSIS
STEMALS-II is a phase II multicentre, randomised double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel group clinical trial on G-CSF (filgrastim) and mannitol in ALS patients. Specifically, we investigate safety, tolerability and efficacy of four repeated courses of intravenous G-CSF and mannitol administered in 76 ALS patients in comparison with placebo (indistinguishable glucose solution 5%). We determine increase of G-CSF levels in serum and cerebrospinal fluid as CD34 + cells and leucocyte count after treatment; reduction in ALS Functional Rating Scale-Revised Score, forced vital capacity, Scale for Testing Muscle Strength Score and quality of life; the adverse events/reactions during the treatment; changes in neuroinflammation biomarkers before and after treatment.
ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION
The study protocol was approved by the Ethics Committee of Azienda Ospedaliera Universitaria 'Città della Salute e della Scienza', Torino, Italy. Results will be presented during scientific symposia or published in scientific journals.

603,32209630,Validating the effect of Ondansetron and Mirtazapine In Treating hyperemesis gravidarum (VOMIT): protocol for a randomised placebo-controlled trial.,"INTRODUCTION
Current pharmacological treatment options for hyperemesis gravidarum have been introduced based on scarce evidence and are often not sufficiently effective. Several case reports suggest that mirtazapine, an antidepressant, may be an effective treatment for hyperemesis gravidarum, but so far there are no controlled trials investigating the potential effect of mirtazapine on hyperemesis gravidarum. The antiemetic ondansetron is currently widely used to treat hyperemesis gravidarum despite sparse evidence of effect in pregnant women. This study aims to investigate the effect of mirtazapine on hyperemesis gravidarum while also providing data on the effect of ondansetron.
METHODS AND ANALYSIS
This randomised double-blind placebo-controlled multicentre trial will be conducted in eight Danish hospitals. One hundred and eighty pregnant women referred to secondary care for hyperemesis gravidarum will be randomly allocated to 14-day treatment with either mirtazapine, ondansetron or placebo. Main inclusion criterion will be Pregnancy Unique Quantification of Emesis (PUQE-24) score ≥13 or PUQE-24 score ≥7 if accompanied by weight loss >5% of pre-pregnancy weight or hospitalisation. Participants are eligible regardless of whether other antiemetics, including ondansetron, have been tried. The coprimary outcomes are effects of mirtazapine and ondansetron, respectively, on PUQE-24 score tested hierarchically on day 2 and day 14. Secondary outcomes include, but are not limited to, differences between the three groups in number of daily vomiting episodes, dropout due to treatment failure, use of rescue medication, weight change and side effects.
ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION

604,32209643,Maintaining quality of life in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) by extending the maintenance phase of community-based pulmonary rehabilitation: protocol for a randomised controlled trial (ComEx3 Study).,"INTRODUCTION
Pulmonary rehabilitation is a core component of the treatment of people with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD); however, the benefits gained diminish in the ensuing months. The optimal strategy for maintaining the benefits is unclear with weekly supervised maintenance exercise programmes proposed as one strategy. However, the long-term future of maintenance programs is dependent on quality evidence.
METHODS AND ANALYSIS
The ComEx3 randomised controlled trial will investigate the efficacy of extending a weekly supervised maintenance programme for an additional 6 months following an initial 10-week maintenance programme (intervention) by comparing with a control group who receive the same 10-week maintenance programme followed by 6 months of usual care. 120 participants with COPD will be recruited. Primary objective is to determine health-related quality of life over 12 months. Secondary objectives are to determine functional exercise capacity trajectory and to perform an economic evaluation of the intervention to the health system. Outcomes will be analysed for superiority according to intention-to-treat and per-protocol approaches.
ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION
Approval has been received from the relevant ethics committees. Findings will be disseminated in peer-reviewed journals and conferences, targeting those involved in managing people with COPD as well as those who develop policies and guidelines.

605,32192596,Androgenicity and fertility treatment in women with unexplained infertility.,"OBJECTIVE
To determine whether biochemical or clinical markers of androgenic activity predict live birth rate with ovarian stimulation in the unexplained infertility population.
DESIGN
Secondary analysis of the Assessment of Multiple Intrauterine Gestations from Ovarian Stimulation (AMIGOS) clinical trial.
SETTING
Multicenter university-based clinical practices.
PATIENT(S)
Nine hundred couples with unexplained infertility were included. Women were 18-40 years old with regular menses, a normal uterine cavity, at least one patent fallopian tube, and a male partner with ≥5 million motile sperm. Women were randomized to receive gonadotropin, clomiphene, or letrozole with IUI for four or fewer four treatment cycles. Women were evaluated for biochemical (total testosterone, DHEAS, and free androgen index) and clinical markers of androgenic activity (sebum, acne, and hirsutism). Multivariable logistic regression models adjusting for treatment group, maternal age, and body mass index were performed.
INTERVENTION(S)
None.
MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE(S)
The primary outcome was live birth. Secondary outcomes included conception, clinical pregnancy, and pregnancy loss.
RESULT(S)
When comparing 900 women in the AMIGOS trial based on quartiles of serum TT, women were of younger age, higher body mass index, and higher waist circumference with increasing TT. Increasing quartiles of TT also showed increasing DHEAS and free androgen index values. Serum androgens were not associated with outcomes of live birth, conception, clinical pregnancy, or pregnancy loss. Clinical androgen markers were not associated with pregnancy outcomes.
CONCLUSION(S)
In a randomized cohort of women with unexplained infertility, biochemical and clinical measures of androgens did not predict live birth rate after ovarian stimulation treatment.

606,32402630,Early prevention of complex decongestive therapy and rehabilitation exercise for prevention of lower extremity lymphedema after operation of gynecologic cancer.,"OBJECTIVE
To investigate efficacy of early prevention of complex decongestive therapy and rehabilitation exercise for prevention of postoperative lower limb extremity lymphedema for patients with gynecologic cancer.
METHODS
109 female patients were randomly divided into two groups, the control group who only received routine treatment and the CDT group who received both CDT and rehabilitation exercise. For rehabilitation exercise, patients received additional rehabilitation exercise strategy including professional education and full range exercise of hip joint. The incidence of lower extremity lymphedema was recorded. A simple scale for patients' lower extremity lymphedema was designed. The diameter of low limbs (both thighs and calves) was also measured The European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire (EORTC QLQ-C30) and the Brief Fatigue Inventory (BFI) was used for measurement of quality of life.
RESULTS
The incidence of lower extremity lymphedema was 15.09% cases of CDT group and 32.14% in the control group. K-M curve showed the lymphedema free time in CDT group was significantly longer. The subjective scores for heaviness of lower limbs, pain, numbness and dysfunction, as well as the diameters of both thighs and calves were lower in the CDT group. In both groups, the values of EORTC QLQ-C30-GHS and EORTC QLQ-C30-FS were significantly higher, and EORTC QLQ-C30-SS scores and BFI scores were remarkably lower.

To compare visual field outcomes of ocular hypertensive and glaucoma patients treated first with medical therapy with those treated first with selective laser trabeculoplasty (SLT).
DESIGN
Secondary analysis of patients from the Laser in Glaucoma and Ocular Hypertension study, a multicenter randomized controlled trial.
PARTICIPANTS
Three hundred forty-four patients (588 eyes) treated first with medical therapy and 344 patients (590 eyes) treated first with SLT.
METHODS
Visual fields (VFs) were measured using standard automated perimetry and arranged in series (median length and duration, 9 VFs over 48 months). Hierarchical linear models were used to estimate pointwise VF progression rates, which were then averaged to produce a global progression estimate for each eye. Proportions of points and patients in each treatment group with fast (<-1 dB/year) or moderate (<-0.5 dB/year) progression were compared using log-binomial regression.
MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES
Pointwise and global progression rates of total deviation (TD) and pattern deviation (PD).
RESULTS
A greater proportion of eyes underwent moderate or fast TD progression in the medical therapy group compared with the SLT group (26.2% vs. 16.9%; risk ratio [RR], 1.55; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.23-1.93; P < 0.001). A similar pattern was observed for pointwise rates (medical therapy, 26.1% vs. SLT, 19.0%; RR, 1.37; 95% CI, 1.33-1.42; P < 0.001). A greater proportion of pointwise PD rates were categorized as moderate or fast in the medical therapy group (medical therapy, 11.5% vs. SLT, 8.3%; RR, 1.39; 95% CI, 1.32-1.46; P < 0.001). No statistical difference was found in the proportion of eyes that underwent moderate or fast PD progression (medical therapy, 9.9% vs. SLT, 7.1%; RR, 1.39; 95% CI, 0.95, 2.03; P = 0.0928).

608,32402554,"Five-Year Outcomes after Initial Aflibercept, Bevacizumab, or Ranibizumab Treatment for Diabetic Macular Edema (Protocol T Extension Study).","PURPOSE
Assess follow-up treatment and clinical outcomes at 5 years in eyes initially treated with anti-VEGF therapy for center-involved diabetic macular edema (CI-DME) in a 2-year randomized clinical trial.
DESIGN
Multicenter cohort study.
PARTICIPANTS
Participants with diabetic macular edema (DME) and visual acuity (VA) 20/32 to 20/320 enrolled in DRCR.net Protocol T with visits 5 years after randomization (3 years after Protocol T completion).
METHODS
Participants were assigned randomly to aflibercept, bevacizumab, or ranibizumab with protocol-defined follow-up and re-treatment for 2 years. Thereafter, participants were managed at clinician discretion and recalled for a 5-year visit.
MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES
Anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) treatment, VA letter score, and central subfield thickness (CST).
RESULTS
Sixty-eight percent (317/463) of eligible participants completed the 5-year visit. Between years 2 and 5, 68% (217/317) of study eyes received at least 1 anti-VEGF treatment (median, 4; interquartile range [IQR], 0-12). At 5 years, mean VA improved from baseline by 7.4 letters (95% confidence interval [CI], 5.9-9.0) but decreased by 4.7 letters (95% CI, 3.3-6.0) between 2 and 5 years. When baseline VA was 20/50 to 20/320, mean 5-year VA was 11.9 letters (95% CI, 9.3-14.5) better than baseline but 4.8 letters (95% CI, 2.5-7.0) worse than 2 years. When baseline VA was 20/32 to 20/40, mean 5-year VA was 3.2 letters (95% CI, 1.4-5.0) better than baseline but 4.6 letters (95% CI, 3.1-6.1) worse than 2 years. Mean CST decreased from baseline to 5 years by 154 μm (95% CI, 142-166) and was stable between 2 and 5 years (-1 μm; 95% CI, -12 to 9).
CONCLUSIONS
Among the two-thirds of eligible Protocol T participants who completed a 5-year visit, mean VA improved from baseline to 5 years without protocol-defined treatment after follow-up ended at 2 years. Although mean retinal thickness was similar at 2 and 5 years, mean VA worsened during this period.

609,32203207,Long-term cardiac outcomes of patients with HER2-positive breast cancer treated in the adjuvant lapatinib and/or trastuzumab Treatment Optimization Trial.,"BACKGROUND
Cardiotoxicity is the most significant adverse event associated with trastuzumab (T), the main component of HER2-positive breast cancer (BC) treatment. Less is known about the cardiotoxicity of dual HER2 blockade with T plus lapatinib (L), although this regimen is used in the metastatic setting.
METHODS
This is a sub-analysis of the ALTTO trial comparing adjuvant treatment options for patients with early HER2-positive BC. Patients randomised to either T or concomitant T + L were eligible. Cardiac events (CEs) rates were compared according to treatment arm.
RESULTS
With 6.9 years of median follow-up (FU) and 4190 patients, CE were observed in 363 (8.6%): 166 (7.9%) of patient in T + L arm vs. 197 (9.3%) in T arm (OR = 0.85 [95% CI, 0.68-1.05]). During anti-HER2 treatment 270 CE (6.4%) occurred while 93 (2.2%) were during FU (median time to onset = 6.6 months [IQR = 3.4-11.7]). While 265 CEs were asymptomatic (73%), 94 were symptomatic (26%) and four were cardiac deaths (1%). Recovery was observed in 301 cases (83.8%). Identified cardiac risk factors were: baseline LVEF < 55% (vs > 64%, OR 3.1 [95% CI 1.54-6.25]), diabetes mellitus (OR 1.85 [95% CI 1.25-2.75]), BMI > 30 kg/m 2 (vs < 25 mg/kg 2 , OR 2.21 [95% CI 1.40-3.49]), cumulative dose of doxorubicin ≥240 mg/m 2 (OR 1.36 [95% CI 1.01-1.82]) and of epirubicin≥ 480 mg/m 2 (OR 2.33 [95% CI 1.55-3.51]).
CONCLUSIONS
Dual HER2 blockade with T + L is a safe regimen from a cardiac perspective, but cardiac-focused history for proper patient selection is crucial.

610,32402480,Treatment of Headache in the Emergency Department: Haloperidol in the Acute Setting (THE-HA Study): A Randomized Clinical Trial.,"BACKGROUND
Headache is a common complaint of emergency department (ED) patients and current treatment varies with significant limitations.
OBJECTIVE
Our aim was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of 2.5 mg i.v. haloperidol in the treatment of severe benign headache in the ED.
METHODS
A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial was performed in the ED of a single high-volume teaching hospital. Convenience sampling identified 287 eligible patients 13 to 55 years old with benign headache. One hundred and eighteen patients were enrolled to receive either 2.5 mg of haloperidol i.v. or placebo. The primary outcome measure was pain reduction at 60 min. Patients were evaluated for adverse events and follow-up was conducted after discharge. QT measurement was performed at baseline and discharge.
RESULTS
Fifty-eight patients received haloperidol and 60 patients received placebo. Patients in the haloperidol group reported an average 4.77-unit reduction in visual analogue scale score at 60 min compared to a 1.87-unit reduction in the control group. Thirty-four patients (58.6%) in the haloperidol group had complete resolution of their headache. Treatment with rescue ketorolac was required in 78.3% of the control group and 31% of the haloperidol group. Adverse events were uncommon, benign, and easily treated. No patients in the haloperidol group were found to have QT lengthening.
CONCLUSIONS
This study suggests that 2.5 mg i.v. haloperidol is a rapid and effective treatment for acute, severe, benign headache in ED patients aged 18 to 55 years. Further study is warranted to confirm these results in adolescents.

611,32402495,Non-suturing microvascular anastomosis in maxillofacial reconstruction- a comparative study.,"AIM
The aim of the study is to compare the advantages and disadvantages of non-suturing anastomotic methods over conventional microsuturing for microvascular venous anastomosis.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
All patients reporting to the institute for hard and soft tissue reconstruction (Primary/secondary) were enrolled in the study. Patients with systemic comorbidities, peripheral vascular diseases, or anatomical aberration of the indicated donor site were excluded from the study. The patients selected for the study were randomly allocated to five groups of different techniques of venous anastomosis, namely Group I (conventional microsuturing), II (fibrin sealant reinforced microsuturing), III (couplers), IV (staplers), V (Laser Assisted Vascular Anastomosis (LAVA)). Intraoperative anastomotic time, flap ischaemic time, patency and leakage were the parameters that were assessed for all five groups.
RESULTS
80 Patients were randomly allocated to five groups and each group comprised 16 patients. The mean ischaemic time and standard deviation of Group I and Group II were 256.19 ± 10.622 min and 255.19 ± 11.083 min, and for groups III, IV, and V were 193.38 ± 9.972 min, 139.06 ± 6.413 min, and 139.31 ± 6.364 min respectively (p < 0.001). Mean anastomotic time and standard deviation were 19.813 ± 1.5366 min in Group I and 20.281 ± 1.6514 min in Group II. The non-sutured anastomosis groups III, IV, and V showed a mean anastomotic time of 5.375 ± 0.9876 min, 4.175 ± 0.7664 min, and 3.856 ± 0.867 min respectively (p value < 0.001). In Groups I and II, 18.8% of patients had delayed patency and in Groups III, IV and V, immediate patency was observed in all subjects (p value 0.030).

612,32402496,Does platelet-rich fibrin increase stability of the maxilla following Le Fort I osteotomy? A single-blind clinical trial study.,"This single-blind clinical trial study aimed to assess the efficacy of platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) in increasing stability following Le Fort I osteotomy for maxillary advancement. Patients who underwent Le Fort I osteotomy for maxillary advancement were assigned randomly into two groups: in group 1 (the study group, n = 22) PRF was placed in the osteotomy sites following fixation, while no PRF was used in group 2 (the control group, n = 22). Lateral cephalograms obtained preoperatively (T0), immediately after surgery (T1), and 1 year after surgery (T2) were compared between the two groups, and the amount of relapse was determined. The amount of maxillary change (relapse) at the A point in relation to the x-axis was 0.45 ± 0.67 mm in group 1 and 1.86 ± 0.56 mm in group 2. There was a significant difference in mean relapse in relation to the x-axis between the two groups 12 months after osteotomy (p < 0.001). The mean maxillary change (relapse) in relation to the y-axis was 0.77 ± 1.15 mm in group 1 and 2.25 ± 1.22 mm in group 2. Analysis of the data demonstrated a significant difference in mean relapse in relation to the y-axis between the two groups (p < 0.001).

614,32402523,Treatment Adequacy and Adherence as Predictors of Depression Response in Primary Care.,"OBJECTIVE
Primary care is the de facto mental health system in the United States where physicians treat large numbers of depressed older adults with antidepressant medication. This study aimed to examine whether antidepressant dosage adequacy and patient adherence are associated with depression response among middle-aged and older adults prescribed with antidepressants by their primary care provider.
DESIGN
A secondary analysis was conducted on a sample drawn from a randomized controlled trial comparing Treatment as Usual to Treatment Initiation Program, an adherence intervention. Treatment Initiation Program improved adherence but not depression compared to Treatment as Usual (Sirey et al., 2017). For this analysis, we examined dosing adequacy and adherence at 6 and 12 weeks as predictors of depression response in both groups at 12 and 24 weeks.
SETTING
Primary care practices.
PARTICIPANTS
One hundred eighty-seven older adults with depression prescribed an antidepressant for depression by their primary care provider.
MEASUREMENTS
Depression response was defined as 50% reduction on the Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression. Adherence was defined as taking 80% of doses at follow-up interviews (6 and 12 weeks). Patient-reported dosage and duration of antidepressant therapy was collected using the Composite Antidepressant Score (adequacy score of >3) at follow-up.
RESULTS
Greater adherence, but not receipt of adequate dosage, was associated with higher likelihood of treatment response at both 12 (Odds ratio (OR) = 2.63; 95% Confidence Interval (CI), 1.19-5.84) and 24 weeks (OR = 3.09; 95% CI, 1.46-6.55).
CONCLUSION
As physicians prescribe antidepressants to the diverse group of adults seen in primary care, special attention to patients' views and approach to adherence may improve depression outcomes.",2020,"Greater adherence, but not receipt of adequate dosage, was associated with higher likelihood of treatment response at both 12 (Odds ratio (OR) = 2.63; 95% Confidence Interval (CI), 1.19-5.84) and 24 weeks (OR = 3.09; 95% CI, 1.46-6.55).

To examine diabetes remission following a short-term intensive metabolic intervention combining lifestyle and glucose-lowering approaches.
METHODS
We conducted an open-label randomized controlled trial in 154 patients with type 2 diabetes up to 8 years in duration on 0-2 glucose-lowering medications. Participants were randomized to: (i) a 12-week intensive intervention comprising lifestyle approaches and treatment with insulin glargine, metformin and dapagliflozin or (ii) standard diabetes care. At 12 weeks, diabetes medications were discontinued in participants with HbA1C<7.3% [56 mmol/mol]. Participants were then followed for diabetes relapse until 64 weeks. The primary outcome was complete or partial diabetes remission (HbA1C<6.5% [48 mmol/mol] off chronic diabetes drugs) at 24 weeks. Main secondary outcomes were complete or partial diabetes remission at 36, 48 and 64 weeks.
RESULTS
The primary outcome was achieved in 19 (24.7%) intervention group participants and 13 (16.9%) control group participants at 24 weeks (RR 1.5, 95% CI 0.8-2.7). The relative risks of remission at 36, 48 and 64 weeks were 2.4 (95% CI 1.2-5.0), 2.1 (95% CI 1.0-4.4) and 1.8 (95% CI 0.7-4.7) respectively. In an exploratory analysis, the intervention reduced the hazard of diabetes relapse with overt hyperglycemia by 43% (HR 0.57, 95% CI 0.39-0.81).
CONCLUSIONS
Our primary outcome of diabetes remission at 24 weeks was not statistically significantly different.

616,32403158,"Stenting the ureteroneocystostomy reduces urological complications in kidney transplantation: a non-inferiority randomized controlled trial, SPLINT-trial.","The role of ureteral stents in living donor kidney transplantation remains uncertain. In this randomized controlled trial (SPLINT), we compared urological complications in living donor kidney transplantations performed with or without stents. We included 200 consecutive patients that received living donor kidney transplantations at the Erasmus MC, University Medical Center Rotterdam. Patients (124 males, 76 females, mean age 54 ± 13) were randomized for suprapubic externalized single J stents (N=100) or no stent (N=100). The primary outcome was the probability of a percutaneous nephrostomy insertion (PCN) during a 12-month follow-up. To assess whether no stenting is non inferior to stenting, we allowed the probability of a PCN to increase by at most 5% (this is the non-inferiority margin). Baseline characteristics were comparable between groups. In the no stent group, there were more PCN insertions 14% (95%CI 4.3- 23.7%), urinary leakages 12% (95%CI 5.4- 21.3%) and surgical re-interventions due to urological complications 8% (95%CI 1.5- 14.5%).

617,32403207,The effect of insemination methods on in vitro maturation outcomes.,"Objective
The aim of this study was to compare the effects of conventional insemination (in vitro fertilization [IVF]) and intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) on the fertilization, developmental competence, implantation potential, and clinical pregnancy rate of embryos derived from in vitro matured oocytes of patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).
Methods
A prospective study was carried out among 38 PCOS patients who had undergone in vitro maturation (IVM) treatment. In total, 828 immature oocytes were collected from 42 cycles and randomly assigned for insemination by IVF (416 oocytes) or ICSI (412 oocytes). After fertilization, the embryos were cultured until the blastocyst stage and single embryos were transferred after endometrial preparation and under ultrasound guidance.
Results
No significant differences were found in the maturation rate (78.1% vs. 72.6% for IVF and ICSI insemination, respectively; p= 0.076), fertilization rate (59.4% vs. 66.9% for IVF and ICSI insemination, respectively; p= 0.063), or the formation of good-quality blastocysts (40.9% vs. 46.5% for IVF and ICSI insemination, respectively; p= 0.314). Implantation and clinical pregnancy also did not show significant differences.
Conclusion
There was a comparable yield of in vitro matured oocytes derived from PCOS patients in terms of fertilization, blastocyst formation, implantation rate, and clinical pregnancy between IVF and ICSI insemination.

618,32404056,Effectiveness of concomitant use of green tea and polyethylene glycol in bowel preparation for colonoscopy: a randomized controlled study.,"BACKGROUND
Polyethylene glycol solution (PEG) is widely used for bowel preparation prior to colonoscopies. However, patients often exhibited adverse events as nausea, vomit and distention due to its uncomfortable tastes and potential side affects. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of concomitant use of green tea (GT) with PEG in bowel preparation prior to colonoscopy.
METHODS
This was a prospective, randomized controlled study. It was conducted at an outpatient setting of colorectal surgery in a tertiary hospital. Patients aged 18 through 80 who were scheduled to undergo colonoscopy between August 2015 and February 2016 were randomly assigned into two groups, admitting either 2 L-PEG solutions with 1 L GT liquids or 2 L-PEG solutions only for bowel preparation. Admitted doses of PEG solutions, taste evaluation, adverse reactions (nausea and vomiting, distention and abdominal pain) were investigated by questionnaires. The bowel cleanliness of each patient was evaluated according to the Aronchick indicators.
RESULTS
A total of 116 patients were enrolled in this study (PEG+GT 59, PEG 57). Full compliances were achieved in 93.2% patients of group PEG+GT and 59.6% of group PEG (p < 0.001). Mean Aronchick scale between two groups were 2.0 ± 0.9 versus 2.2 ± 0.7 respectively (PEG+GT vs PEG, p = 0.296). Rates of adverse events as nausea and vomiting, abdominal pain in bowel preparation were significantly different between two groups (55.9% vs 77.2%, p = 0.015 and 13.6% vs 33.3%, p = 0.012). Patients in group PEG+GT who have probabilities to receive repeating colonoscopy had a higher willingness to accept PEG+GT again for bowel preparation, compared with PEG group (94.9% vs 57.9%, p < 0.001).
CONCLUSIONS
Concomitant use of green tea and polyethylene glycol may effectively reduce incidence of adverse events, increase compliances, with comparable bowel cleanliness in bowel preparation.

619,32404059,Effectiveness of a community program for older adults with type 2 diabetes and multimorbidity: a pragmatic randomized controlled trial.,"BACKGROUND
Type II diabetes mellitus (T2DM) affects upwards of 25% of Canadian older adults and is associated with high comorbidity and burden. Studies show that lifestyle factors and self-management are associated with improved health outcomes, but many studies lack rigour or exclude older adults, particularly those with multimorbidity. More evidence is needed on the effectiveness of community-based self-management programs in older adults with T2DM and multimorbidity. The study purpose is to evaluate the effect of a community-based intervention versus usual care on physical functioning, mental health, depressive symptoms, anxiety, self-efficacy, self-management, and healthcare costs in older adults with T2DM and 2 or more comorbidities.
METHODS
Community-living older adults with T2DM and two or more chronic conditions were recruited from three Primary Care Networks (PCNs) in Alberta, Canada. Participants were randomly allocated to the intervention or control group in this pragmatic randomized controlled trial comparing the intervention to usual care. The intervention involved up to three in-home visits, a monthly group wellness program, monthly case conferencing, and care coordination. The primary outcome was physical functioning. Secondary outcomes included mental functioning, anxiety, depressive symptoms, self-efficacy, self-management, and the cost of healthcare service use. Intention-to-treat analysis was performed using ANCOVA modeling.
RESULTS
Of 132 enrolled participants (70-Intervention, 62-Control), 42% were 75 years or older, 55% were female, and over 75% had at least six chronic conditions (in addition to T2DM). No significant group differences were seen for the baseline to six-month change in physical functioning (mean difference: -0.74; 95% CI: - 3.22, 1.74; p-value: 0.56), mental functioning (mean difference: 1.24; 95% CI: - 1.12, 3.60; p-value: 0.30), or other secondary outcomes..
CONCLUSION
No significant group differences were seen for the primary outcome, physical functioning (PCS). Program implementation, baseline differences between study arms and chronic disease management services that are part of usual care may have contributed to the modest study results. Fruitful areas for future research include capturing clinical outcome measures and exploring the impact of varying the type and intensity of key intervention components such as exercise and diet.

620,32404076,The effects of gamification on antimicrobial resistance knowledge and its relationship to dentistry in Saudi Arabia: a randomized controlled trial.,"BACKGROUND
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) has reached alarming levels and is considered to be a worldwide public health problem. One of the most significant factors contributing to the spread of AMR is the lack of proper knowledge about the use of antibiotics, which are being used more frequently in dentistry. Recent studies have found that gamification shows promising results for helping the average person improve their knowledge about health and may also be used to boost knowledge about AMR among the public. This study aimed to assess the effects of gamification on AMR awareness, using a board game to promote knowledge about AMR among the public in Saudi Arabia.
METHODS
Using a single-blinded parallel group randomized controlled trial design, 94 volunteers were recruited and randomized into two groups. The study group received information about AMR by playing a board game, while the control group received the same information given in a conventional lecture. The participants were evaluated three times: (T1) before the intervention, (T2) immediately after the intervention, and (T3) one month after the intervention for follow-up to evaluate their retention of the information.
RESULTS
Results showed that there were significant improvements (p < 0.05) in knowledge scores for T2 and T3 in comparison to the T1 baseline scores in both groups. However, the knowledge scores also relapsed significantly from T2 to T3 in both groups. Nevertheless, the difference in knowledge score T1 to T3 was significantly higher in the study group in comparison to the control group, and the participants had higher mean scores to use the game as health promotion method.
CONCLUSIONS
Gamification using a board game can significantly improve AMR knowledge, with better retention than conventional lecture. It is a promising method for boosting public knowledge about AMR and its relationship to dentistry.

621,32404088,"The effect of health education on knowledge and behavior toward respiratory infectious diseases among students in Gansu, China: a quasi-natural experiment.","BACKGROUND
The respiratory infectious diseases (RID) threaten the health and life quality of school students. However, previous related studies were insufficient in research design and method applied. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of health education on the knowledge and behavior of students toward RID through difference-in-difference (DID) analysis in Gansu, China.
METHODS
In 2015-2016, a one-year health education program in Gansu, China was conducted. The intervention group contained 1064 students before and 1001 students after the health education (2015 and 2016, respectively). The control group contained 1018 and 1001 students, respectively. The health education, including playing promotional cartoons, developing lectures, giving out handbook copies and making hand copy and blackboard newspapers, and publicity columns on RID, were conducted monthly from 2015 to 2016 in intervention group. The data were collected before and after the health education program with a questionnaire on the students' knowledge and preventive behaviors regarding RID. The × 2 and t tests were performed to compare the accuracy rate and scores for RID knowledge and behavior of the two groups. DID estimation was conducted to evaluate the effect of health education on RID knowledge and behavior while controlling the non- equilibrium variables.
RESULTS
After the health education program, the accuracy rate and scores of most items in the intervention group were significantly higher than those in the control group (P < 0.05) except for item k9 ""What methods can prevent flu?"". The DID results wherein the demographics- age, nationality, and household register were controlled showed that health education significantly improved the accuracy rate of RID knowledge by 5.2-63.9% for most items, although the accuracy rates of items k2 ""What's the transmission way of the mumps?"" and k9 were significantly decreased by 36.8 and 12.0%. The health education significantly improved the score of knowledge by 155.2% (P < 0.001) and the accuracy rate of all items of RID behavior by 2.9-51.5% except for item b3 ""If you have phlegm, how do you usually deal with it?"". In addition, the health education also significantly improved the score of behavior toward RID of the sampled students by 138.2% (P < 0.001).

622,32404343,Adalimumab dose tapering in patients with rheumatoid arthritis who are in long-standing clinical remission: results of the phase IV PREDICTRA study.,"OBJECTIVE
To investigate the association between baseline disease activity and the occurrence of flares after adalimumab tapering or withdrawal in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in sustained remission.
METHODS
The PREDICTRA phase IV, randomised, double-blind (DB) study (Im P act of R esidual Inflammation Detected via Imaging T E chniques, D rug Levels, and Patient Characteristics on the Outcome of Dose Taper I ng of Adalimumab in C linical Remission Rheumatoid Ar T hritis ( RA ) Patients) enrolled patients with RA receiving adalimumab 40 mg every other week who were in sustained remission ≥6 months. After a 4-week, open-label lead-in (OL-LI) period, patients were randomised 5:1 to DB adalimumab taper (every 3 weeks) or withdrawal (placebo) for 36 weeks. The primary endpoint was the association between DB baseline hand and wrist MRI-detected inflammation with flare occurrence.
RESULTS
Of 146 patients treated during the OL-LI period, 122 were randomised to taper (n=102) or withdrawal (n=20) arms. Patients had a mean 12.9 years of active disease and had received adalimumab for a mean of 5.4 years (mean 2.2 years in sustained remission). Overall, 37 (36%) and 9 (45%) patients experienced a flare in the taper and withdrawal arms, respectively (time to flare, 18.0 and 13.3 weeks). None of the DB baseline disease characteristics or adalimumab concentration was associated with flare occurrence after adalimumab tapering. Approximately half of the patients who flared regained clinical remission after 16 weeks of open-label rescue adalimumab. The safety profile was consistent with previous studies.
CONCLUSIONS
Approximately one-third of patients who tapered adalimumab versus half who withdrew adalimumab experienced a flare within 36 weeks. Time to flare was numerically longer in the taper versus withdrawal arm. Baseline MRI inflammation was not associated with flare occurrence.

623,32404353,Costimulation Blockade Disrupts CD4 + T Cell Memory Pathways and Uncouples Their Link to Decline in β-Cell Function in Type 1 Diabetes.,"We previously reported that costimulation blockade by abatacept limits the decline of β-cell function and the frequency of circulating CD4 + central memory T cells (T CM ) (CD45RO + CD62L + ) in new-onset type 1 diabetes. In human subjects receiving placebo, we found a significant association between an increase in CD4 + T CM cells and the decline of β-cell function. To extend and refine these findings, we examined changes in human CD4 + and CD8 + naive and memory T cell subsets at greater resolution using polychromatic flow and mass cytometry. In the placebo group, we successfully reproduced the original finding of a significant association between T CM and β-cell function and extended this to other T cell subsets. Furthermore, we show that abatacept treatment significantly alters the frequencies of a majority of CD4 + conventional and regulatory T cell subsets; in general, Ag-naive subsets increase and Ag-experienced subsets decrease, whereas CD8 + T cell subsets are relatively resistant to drug effects, indicating a lesser reliance on CD28-mediated costimulation. Importantly, abatacept uncouples the relationship between changes in T cell subsets and β-cell function that is a component of the natural history of the disease. Although these data suggest immunological markers for predicting change in β-cell function in type 1 diabetes, the finding that abatacept blunts this relationship renders the biomarkers nonpredictive for this type of therapy. In sum, our findings point to a novel mechanism of action for this successful immunotherapy that may guide other disease-modifying approaches for type 1 diabetes.",2020,"In the placebo group, we successfully reproduced the original finding of a significant association between T CM and β-cell function and extended this to other T cell subsets.",[],['placebo'],"['T CM and β-cell function', 'CD4 + T CM cells and the decline of β-cell function', 'human CD4 + and CD8 + naive and memory T cell subsets', 'frequencies of a majority of CD4 + conventional and regulatory T cell subsets', 'frequency of circulating CD4 + central memory T cells (T CM ) (CD45RO + CD62L + ']",[],"[{'cui': 'C0032042', 'cui_str': 'Sham Treatment'}]","[{'cui': 'C0007613', 'cui_str': 'Physiology, Cell'}, {'cui': 'C0003323', 'cui_str': 'Lymphocyte antigen CD4'}, {'cui': 'C0007584', 'cui_str': 'Cell count'}, {'cui': 'C0086418', 'cui_str': 'Homo sapiens'}, {'cui': 'C0085358', 'cui_str': 'Lymphocyte antigen CD8'}, {'cui': 'C0025260', 'cui_str': 'Memory function'}, {'cui': 'C0080202', 'cui_str': 'T-Cell Subsets'}, {'cui': 'C0237630', 'cui_str': 'Stimulus frequency'}, {'cui': 'C0439858', 'cui_str': 'Conventional'}, {'cui': 'C0039198', 'cui_str': 'Regulatory T-Lymphocytes'}, {'cui': 'C0175630', 'cui_str': 'Circulating'}, {'cui': 'C0205099', 'cui_str': 'Central'}, {'cui': 'C0039194', 'cui_str': 'T lymphocyte'}, {'cui': 'C0162833', 'cui_str': 'Lymphocyte antigen CD45RO'}, {'cui': 'C0125090', 'cui_str': 'Lymphocyte antigen CD62L'}]",,0.0502345,"In the placebo group, we successfully reproduced the original finding of a significant association between T CM and β-cell function and extended this to other T cell subsets.","[{'ForeName': 'Martin', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Eichmann', 'Affiliation': ""Peter Gorer Department of Immunobiology, Faculty of Life Sciences and Medicine, King's College London, London SE1 9RT, United Kingdom; martin.eichmann@kcl.ac.uk.""}, {'ForeName': 'Roman', 'Initials': 'R', 'LastName': 'Baptista', 'Affiliation': ""Peter Gorer Department of Immunobiology, Faculty of Life Sciences and Medicine, King's College London, London SE1 9RT, United Kingdom.""}, {'ForeName': 'Richard J', 'Initials': 'RJ', 'LastName': 'Ellis', 'Affiliation': ""Biomedical Research Centre at Guy's and St Thomas' Hospitals and King's College London, London SE1 9RT, United Kingdom.""}, {'ForeName': 'Susanne', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Heck', 'Affiliation': ""Biomedical Research Centre at Guy's and St Thomas' Hospitals and King's College London, London SE1 9RT, United Kingdom.""}, {'ForeName': 'Mark', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Peakman', 'Affiliation': ""Peter Gorer Department of Immunobiology, Faculty of Life Sciences and Medicine, King's College London, London SE1 9RT, United Kingdom.""}, {'ForeName': 'Craig A', 'Initials': 'CA', 'LastName': 'Beam', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Biomedical Sciences, Homer Stryker M.D. School of Medicine, Western Michigan University, Kalamazoo, MI 49008.'}]","Journal of immunology (Baltimore, Md. : 1950)",['10.4049/jimmunol.1901439']
624,32404355,Aerobic exercise improves cognition and cerebrovascular regulation in older adults.,"OBJECTIVE
To test the hypothesis that aerobic exercise is associated with improvements in cognition and cerebrovascular regulation, we enrolled 206 healthy low-active middle-aged and older adults (mean ± SD age 65.9 ± 6.4 years) in a supervised 6-month aerobic exercise intervention and assessed them before and after the intervention.
METHODS
The study is a quasi-experimental single group pre/postintervention study. Neuropsychological tests were used to assess cognition before and after the intervention. Transcranial Doppler ultrasound was used to measure cerebral blood flow velocity. Cerebrovascular regulation was assessed at rest, during euoxic hypercapnia, and in response to submaximal exercise. Multiple linear regression was used to examine the association between changes in cognition and changes in cerebrovascular function.
RESULTS
The intervention was associated with improvements in some cognitive domains, cardiorespiratory fitness, and cerebrovascular regulation. Changes in executive functions were negatively associated with changes in cerebrovascular resistance index (CVRi) during submaximal exercise (β = -0.205, p = 0.013), while fluency improvements were positively associated with changes in CVRi during hypercapnia (β = 0.106, p = 0.03).

625,32404378,Effect of high-salt diet on blood pressure and body fluid composition in patients with type 1 diabetes: randomized controlled intervention trial.,"INTRODUCTION
Patients with type 1 diabetes are susceptible to hypertension, possibly resulting from increased salt sensitivity and accompanied changes in body fluid composition. We examined the effect of a high-salt diet (HSD) in type 1 diabetes on hemodynamics, including blood pressure (BP) and body fluid composition.
RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS
We studied eight male patients with type 1 diabetes and 12 matched healthy controls with normal BP, body mass index, and renal function. All subjects adhered to a low-salt diet and HSD for eight days in randomized order. On day 8 of each diet, extracellular fluid volume (ECFV) and plasma volume were calculated with the use of iohexol and 125 I-albumin distribution. Hemodynamic measurements included BP, cardiac output (CO), and systemic vascular resistance.
RESULTS
After HSD, patients with type 1 diabetes showed a BP increase (mean arterial pressure: 85 (5) mm Hg vs 80 (3) mm Hg; p<0.05), while BP in controls did not rise (78 (5) mm Hg vs 78 (5) mm Hg). Plasma volume increased after HSD in patients with type 1 diabetes (p<0.05) and not in controls (p=0.23). There was no significant difference in ECFV between diets, while HSD significantly increased CO, heart rate (HR) and N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) in type 1 diabetes but not in controls. There were no significant differences in systemic vascular resistance, although there was a trend towards an HSD-induced decrease in controls (p=0.09).
CONCLUSIONS
In the present study, patients with type 1 diabetes show a salt-sensitive BP rise to HSD, which is accompanied by significant increases in plasma volume, CO, HR, and NT-proBNP. Underlying mechanisms for these responses need further research in order to unravel the increased susceptibility to hypertension and cardiovascular disease in diabetes.

626,32404854,Clinical Value of Serum LHPP-associated miR-765 in the Prognosis of Laparoscopic or Open Hepatectomy for Hepatocellular Carcinoma.,"PURPOSE
The current study aims to investigate the effect of tumor suppressor LHPP-associated microRNA (miR)-765 on the prognosis of laparoscopic hepatectomy (LH) or open hepatectomy (OH) for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).
MATERIALS AND METHODS
A total of 160 patients with HCC were enrolled and randomly divided into the LH or OH group. According to the operation time, these patients were followed up for 12 months, and the number of deaths and the corresponding death time during the follow-up period were counted.
RESULTS
The authors found that the LHPP gene levels in HCC tissues were lower than that in adjacent normal tissues, whereas miR-765 was overexpressed in HCC tissue. Overexpression of miR-765 promoted the epithelial-mesenchymal transition and proliferation and inhibited apoptosis of HCC through directly downregulating LHPP expression. Serum miR-765 expression level was significantly associated with lymph node metastasis and histologic grading. Survival analysis showed that the overall survival rate in 12 months after the operation was significantly lower in the OH-high miR-765 group (P<0.05).
CONCLUSION
For patients with a low miR-765 level, both LH and OH are available, otherwise, LH is more recommended.",2020,"Survival analysis showed that the overall survival rate in 12 months after the operation was significantly lower in the OH-high miR-765 group (P<0.05).

Cleaning efficacy of differently shaped IDBs was measured in proximal surfaces of teeth in a split-mouth cross-over design. Twenty-eight patients abolished oral hygiene for 4 d. Line angle plaque area was scanned with an intraoral camera after use of disclosing dye in baseline and after IDB application and analyzed planimetrically. Additionally, bacterial load in the IDBs was analyzed after usage by colony forming units (cfu). A Wilcoxon signed-rank test with continuity correction was used to compare the results of the waist-shaped and the cylindrically-shaped IDBs. The waist-shaped IDBs cleaned significantly better than their cylindrically-shaped counterparts (area cleaned: 23.1% vs. 18.3%), when applied at same interdental spaces (p < 0.001). However, no significant differences were found in comparison of bacterial load on the IDBs (median cfu counts: 2.3E9 vs. 2.7E9, p = 0.93).

628,32404919,Short rehabilitation training program may improve postural control in children with autism spectrum disorders: preliminary evidences.,"Autism Spectrum Disorders subjects (ASD) is characterized by postural control deficits. This study aimed to explore the effect of a short postural rehabilitation training program on postural capabilities in children with ASD. Two groups (G1 and G2) of twenty children with ASD of IQ-, sex- and age- matched (mean age 11.7 ± 2.4 years) were included in this study. Posture was recorded by using the Balance Quest from Framiral on unstable platform in three different viewing conditions. The rehabilitation program consisted in two distinct postural control training exercises. Postural recordings were performed twice at T1 and T2 for both groups of children. Between T1 and T2 a 6-minute postural training was performed by the G1 group only, while the G2 group had a 6-minute of rest. Children were allocated randomly to the G1 or G2 groups. At T1, postural instability was similar for both groups of ASD children (G1 and G2) desp+\ite viewing conditions.

630,32405071,Continuing versus suspending angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors and angiotensin receptor blockers: Impact on adverse outcomes in hospitalized patients with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2).,"Background
Angiotensin-converting enzyme-2 (ACE2) may increase due to upregulation in patients using angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEI) and angiotensin receptor blockers (ARB). Because renin-angiotensin system blockers increase levels of ACE2, a protein that facilitates coronavirus entry into cells, there is concern that these drugs could increase the risk of developing a severe and fatal form of COVID-19. The impact of discontinuing ACEI and ARBs in patients with COVID-19 remains uncertain. DESIGN BRACE CORONA is a pragmatic, multicenter, randomized, phase IV, clinical trial that aims to enroll around 500 participants at 32 sites in Brazil. Participants will be identified from an ongoing national registry of suspected and confirmed cases of COVID-19. Eligible patients using renin-angiotensin system blockers (ACEI/ARBs) with a confirmed diagnosis of COVID-19 will be randomized to a strategy of continued ACEI/ARB treatment versus temporary discontinuation for 30 days. The primary outcome is the median days alive and out of the hospital at 30 days. Secondary outcomes include progression of COVID-19 disease, all-cause mortality, death from vascular causes, myocardial infarction, stroke, transient ischemic attack, new or worsening heart failure, myocarditis, pericarditis, arrhythmias, thromboembolic events, hypertensive crisis, respiratory failure, hemodynamic decompensation, sepsis, renal failure, troponin, B-type natriuretic peptide, N-terminal-pro hormone and D-dimer levels.

631,32406009,The effect of TJ-28 (Eppikajutsuto) on the prevention of hand-foot syndrome using Capecitabine for colorectal cancer: The Yokohama Clinical Oncology Group Study (YCOG1102).,"BACKGROUND
Eppikajututo (TJ-28, a Kampo medicine) is effective against rheumatoid arthritis and eczema. We conducted a randomized comparative trial to assess the efficacy of TJ-28 for preventing hand-foot syndrome (HFS) as a complication of adjuvant chemotherapy using capecitabine.
METHODS
The present study was a multi-institutional randomized-controlled trial (UMIN000005899). Colorectal cancer patients scheduled to receive capecitabine chemotherapy as adjuvant therapy were randomly assigned to receive TJ-28 (7500 mg/day) or oral pyridoxine (60 mg/day). Patients were monitored for the development of grade ≥ 2 HFS according to the National Cancer Institute Common Toxicity Criteria until chemotherapy completion.
RESULTS
Twenty-two patients were enrolled in this study. The relative dose intensity of capecitabine was 76.2% in the TJ-28 group and 68.2% in the pyridoxine group. Grade ≥ 2 HFS developed in 6 (50.0%) of 12 TJ-28 patients and in 4 (40.0%) of 10 pyridoxine patients. Chemotherapy treatment failure was observed in seven patients, mainly due to HFS, liver dysfunction, diarrhea, and neutropenia. Chemotherapy treatment failure due to HFS occurred in none of the TJ-28 group and 2 patients (20.0%) in the pyridoxine group (p = 0.114).
CONCLUSION
Capecitabine-associated HFS was not markedly prevented by TJ-28 compared with pyridoxine. However, TJ-28 might support the continuation of chemotherapy with capecitabine.

632,32406100,Comparison Between Minimal Fluoroscopy and Conventional Approaches for Visually Guided Laser Balloon Pulmonary Vein Isolation Ablation.,"INTRODUCTION
Although balloon-based techniques such as the laser balloon (LB) ablation have simplified pulmonary vein isolation (PVI), procedural fluoroscopy usage remains higher in comparison to radiofrequency PVI approaches due to limited 3-dimensional mapping system integration.
METHODS
In this prospective study, 50 consecutive patients were randomly assigned in alternating fashion to a low fluoroscopy group (LFG, n=25) or conventional fluoroscopy group (CFG, n=25) and underwent de novo PVI procedures using visually guided LB technique.
RESULTS
There was no statistical difference in baseline characteristics or cross-overs between treatment groups. Acute PVI was accomplished in all patients. Mean follow up was 318 ± 69 days. Clinical recurrence of AF after PVI was similar between groups (CFG: 19% vs LFG: 15%; p=0.72). Total fluoroscopy time was significantly lower in the LFG than the CFG (1.7 ± 1.4 min vs. 16.9 ± 5.9 min; p < 0.001) despite similar total procedure duration (143 ± 22 min vs. 148 ± 22 min; p= 0.42) and mean LA dwell time (63 ± 15 min vs. 59 ± 10 min; p=0.28). Mean DAP was significantly lower in the LFG (181 ± 125 μGym2 vs. 1980 ± 750 μGym2; p < 0.001). Fluoroscopy usage after transseptal access was substantially lower in the LFG (0.63 ± 0.43 min vs. 11.70 ± 4.32 min; p < 0.001). Complications rates were similar between both groups (4% vs. 2%; p=0.57).
CONCLUSIONS
This study demonstrates that LB PVI can be safely achieved using a novel low fluoroscopy protocol while also substantially reducing fluoroscopy usage and radiation exposure in comparison to conventional approaches for LB ablation.

634,32406112,Randomised clinical trial: linaclotide vs placebo-a study of bi-directional gut and brain axis.,"BACKGROUND
Linaclotide, a guanylate cyclase C agonist relieves irritable bowel syndrome with predominant constipation (IBS-C) symptoms, but how it improves pain in humans is unknown.
AIMS
To investigate the effects of linaclotide and placebo on the afferent and efferent gut-brain-gut signalling in IBS-C patients, in a randomised clinical trial.
METHODS
Patients with IBS-C (Rome III) and rectal hypersensitivity were randomised (2:1) to receive linaclotide (290 µg) or placebo for 10 weeks and undergo bi-directional gut and brain axis assessment using anorectal electrical stimulations and transcranial/transspinal-anorectal magnetic stimulations. Rectal sensations were examined by balloon distention. Assessments included abdominal pain, bowel symptoms and quality of life (QOL) scores. Primary outcomes were latencies of recto-cortical and cortico-rectal evoked potentials.
RESULTS
Thirty-nine patients participated; 26 received linaclotide and 13 received placebo. Rectal cortical evoked potentials latencies (milliseconds) were significantly prolonged with linaclotide compared to baseline (P1:Δ 19 ± 6, P < 0.005; N1:Δ 20 ± 7, P < 0.02) but not with placebo (P1:Δ 3 ± 5; N1:Δ 4.7 ± 5,P = 0.3) or between groups. The efferent cortico-anorectal and spino-anorectal latencies were unchanged. The maximum tolerable rectal volume (cc) increased significantly with linaclotide compared to baseline (P < 0.001) and placebo (Δ 29 ± 10 vs 4 ± 20, (P < 0.03). Abdominal pain decreased (P < 0.001) with linaclotide but not between groups. Complete spontaneous bowel movement frequency increased (P < 0.001), and IBS-QOL scores improved (P = 0.01) with linaclotide compared to baseline and placebo. There was no difference in overall responders between linaclotide and placebo (54% vs 23%, P = 0.13).
CONCLUSIONS
Linaclotide prolongs afferent gut-brain signalling from baseline but both afferent and efferent signalling were unaffected compared to placebo. Linaclotide significantly improves rectal hypersensitivity, IBS-C symptoms and QOL compared to placebo. These mechanisms may explain the effects of linaclotide on pain relief in IBS-C patients.

635,32406919,"Changes in Dietary Inflammatory Potential Predict Changes in Sleep Quality Metrics, but Not Sleep Duration.","STUDY OBJECTIVES
Non-pharmacological sleep interventions may improve sleep profiles without the side-effects observed with many pharmacological sleep aids. The objective of this research was to examine the association between sleep and inflammation and to examine how changes in dietary inflammatory potential influence changes in sleep.
METHODS
The Inflammation Management Intervention Study (IMAGINE), which was a dietary intervention designed to lower inflammation, provided access to 24-hour dietary recalls (24HR), objectively measured sleep using Sensewear™ armbands, and a range of self-reported demographics, health histories, lifestyle behaviors, psychosocial metrics, anthropometric measurements, and inflammatory biomarkers. Dietary Inflammatory Index (DII®) scores were calculated from three unannounced 24HR-derived estimated intakes of whole foods and micro and macronutrients over a 2-week period at baseline and post-intervention (i.e., month 3). Statistical analyses primarily utilized linear regression.
RESULTS
At baseline, for every one-minute increase in sleep onset latency (SOL), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) increased by 0.015 pg/ml (± 0.008, P=0.05). Every one-percentage increase in sleep efficiency was associated with decreased C-reactive protein (CRP) of -0.088 mg/L (± 0.032, P=0.01). Every one-minute increase in wake-after-sleep-onset (WASO) increased both CRP and interleukin-6. Compared to participants with pro-inflammatory DII changes over 3 months, those with anti-inflammatory changes decreased WASO (0 vs. -25 minutes, respectively, P<0.01) and improved sleep efficiency (-2.1% vs. +2.6%, respectively, P=0.04).
CONCLUSION
Non-pharmacological treatments, such as anti-inflammatory diets, may improve sleep in some adults. Future research involving dietary treatments to improve sleep should not only focus on the general population, but in those commonly experiencing co-morbid sleep complaints.",2020,"Every one-percentage increase in sleep efficiency was associated with decreased C-reactive protein (CRP) of -0.088 mg/L (± 0.032, P=0.01).",[],[],"['C-reactive protein (CRP', 'Sleep Quality Metrics', 'Dietary Inflammatory Index (DII®) scores', '24-hour dietary recalls (24HR), objectively measured sleep using Sensewear™ armbands, and a range of self-reported demographics, health histories, lifestyle behaviors, psychosocial metrics, anthropometric measurements, and inflammatory biomarkers', 'WASO', 'sleep onset latency (SOL), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α', 'sleep efficiency']",[],[],"[{'cui': 'C0006560', 'cui_str': 'C reactive protein'}, {'cui': 'C0424563', 'cui_str': 'Quality of sleep'}, {'cui': 'C0699680', 'cui_str': 'Metric'}, {'cui': 'C0012155', 'cui_str': 'Dietary finding'}, {'cui': 'C0600653', 'cui_str': 'Indexes'}, {'cui': 'C0385506', 'cui_str': 'didodecylindocarbocyanine'}, {'cui': 'C0449820', 'cui_str': 'Score'}, {'cui': 'C0439584', 'cui_str': '24 hours'}, {'cui': 'C0034770', 'cui_str': 'Mental Recall'}, {'cui': 'C0079809', 'cui_str': 'Measure'}, {'cui': 'C0037313', 'cui_str': 'Sleep'}, {'cui': 'C1301852', 'cui_str': 'Armband'}, {'cui': 'C3542016', 'cui_str': 'Concept model range'}, {'cui': 'C2700446', 'cui_str': 'Self-reported'}, {'cui': 'C0011298', 'cui_str': 'Demographics'}, {'cui': 'C0455458', 'cui_str': 'PMH - past medical history'}, {'cui': 'C0023676', 'cui_str': 'Life style'}, {'cui': 'C0004927', 'cui_str': 'Behavior finding'}, {'cui': 'C0242485', 'cui_str': 'Measurement'}, {'cui': 'C0005516', 'cui_str': 'Biological Markers'}, {'cui': 'C4505222', 'cui_str': 'Sleep Onset Latency'}, {'cui': 'C0041368', 'cui_str': 'TNF Receptor Ligands'}, {'cui': 'C0013682', 'cui_str': 'Efficiency'}]",,0.0144196,"Every one-percentage increase in sleep efficiency was associated with decreased C-reactive protein (CRP) of -0.088 mg/L (± 0.032, P=0.01).","[{'ForeName': 'Michael D', 'Initials': 'MD', 'LastName': 'Wirth', 'Affiliation': 'College of Nursing, University of South Carolina, Columbia, SC.'}, {'ForeName': 'Angela', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Jessup', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Epidemiology and Biostatistics Columbia, SC.'}, {'ForeName': 'Gabrielle', 'Initials': 'G', 'LastName': 'Turner-McGrievy', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Health Promotion, Education, and Behavior, Arnold School of Public Health, Columbia, SC.'}, {'ForeName': 'Nitin', 'Initials': 'N', 'LastName': 'Shivappa', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Epidemiology and Biostatistics Columbia, SC.'}, {'ForeName': 'Thomas G', 'Initials': 'TG', 'LastName': 'Hurley', 'Affiliation': 'Cancer Prevention and Control Program, Arnold School of Public Health, University of South Carolina, Columbia, SC.'}, {'ForeName': 'James R', 'Initials': 'JR', 'LastName': 'Hébert', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Epidemiology and Biostatistics Columbia, SC.'}]",Sleep,['10.1093/sleep/zsaa093']
636,32406964,"Prospective Cohort Study of Child Mouthing of Feces and Fomites in Urban Dhaka, Bangladesh (CHoBI7 Program).","OBJECTIVE
To characterize childhood mouthing and handling behaviors and to assess the association between hand-to-object and object-to-mouth contacts and diarrhea prevalence in young children in urban Dhaka, Bangladesh.
METHODS
A prospective cohort study was conducted among 494 children under 5 years of age in Dhaka, Bangladesh. This study was nested within the randomized controlled trial of the Cholera-Hospital-Based-Intervention-for-7-Days (CHoBI7) mobile health (mHealth) program. The CHoBI7 mobile health program focuses on promoting handwashing with soap and water treatment to diarrhea patients and their household members through mobile messages and face-to-face visits. Mouthing and handling of feces and fomites among young children was measured by five-hour structured observation and caregiver reports. Diarrhea surveillance data was collected monthly for 12 months.
RESULTS
55% of caregivers reported that their child put a visibly dirty fomite (object or soil) in their mouth in the past week. Caregivers reported that 50% of children had mouthed visibly dirty objects, 26% had mouthed dirt, and 2% had mouthed feces. 45% of children were observed mouthing a visibly dirty fomite during structured observation. 40% of children were observed mouthing an object, 10% were observed mouthing soil, and one child (0.2%) was observed mouthing feces. Mouthing of visibly dirty fomites was most frequent among children 12-18 months of age; 69% of these children were reported to do so by caregivers, and 54% were observed doing so. Children with caregiver reports of mouthing feces had significantly higher odds of diarrhea over the subsequent month (Odds Ratio: 4.54; 95% Confidence Interval: 1.06, 19.48).
CONCLUSION

637,32406965,"Process Evaluation for the Delivery of a Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene Mobile Health Program: Findings from the Randomized Controlled Trial of the CHoBI7 Mobile Health Program.","OBJECTIVE
The Cholera-Hospital-Based-Intervention-for-7-days (CHoBI7) mobile health (mHealth) program delivers mobile messages to diarrhea patient households promoting water treatment and handwashing with soap. The randomized controlled trial (RCT) of the CHoBI7 mHealth program demonstrated this intervention was effective in significantly reducing diarrhea and stunting in young children. The objective of this study was to assess the implementation of the CHoBI7 mHealth program in delivering mHealth messages during this RCT.
METHODS
517 diarrhea patient households received weekly text, voice, and interactive voice response (IVR) messages from the CHoBI7 mHealth program over the 12-month program period. The program process evaluation indicators were the following: the percentage of CHoBI7 mHealth messages received (program fidelity and dose) and fully listened to by program households (program fidelity and dose), and beneficiaries reporting receiving and sharing a mHealth message from the program (program reach) in the past two weeks.
RESULTS
92% of text messages were received by program households. 83% of voice and 86% of IVR messages sent were fully listened to by at least one household member. 81% of IVR quiz responses from households were answered correctly. Program households reported receiving a CHoBI7 mHealth message in the past two weeks at 79% of monthly household visits during the 12-month program. 77% of participants reported sharing a program message with a spouse, 55% with a neighbor, and 49% with a child during the program period.
CONCLUSION
There was high fidelity, dose, and reach of messages delivered for the CHoBI7 mHealth program.

638,32406989,Diarrheal Disease Knowledge among Household Members of Diarrhea Patients: Findings from the Randomized Controlled Trial of the Cholera-Hospital-Based-Intervention-for-7 Days (CHoBI7) Mobile Health Program.,"OBJECTIVE
The objective of this study was to evaluate the impact of the Cholera-Hospital-Based-Intervention-for-7-days (CHoBI7) handwashing with soap and water treatment mobile health (mHealth) program on diarrheal disease knowledge among diarrhea patients and their household members in urban Dhaka, Bangladesh.
METHODS
A cluster-randomized controlled trial of the CHoBI7 mHealth program was conducted among diarrhea patient households in Dhaka, Bangladesh. Patients were randomized to three arms: standard recommendation on oral rehydration solution use; health facility delivery of CHoBI7 plus mHealth (no home visits); and health facility delivery of CHoBI7 plus two home visits and mHealth. An open ended questionnaire was administered to 1468 participants 12 years of age or older on diarrheal disease transmission and prevention. These items were combined to form a diarrheal disease knowledge score measured at baseline and 1 week, 6 months, and 12 months.
RESULTS
At baseline, when participants were asked to report three ways diarrheal diseases were spread 37% (546/1468) of participants reported by water, 13% (187/1468) reported by lack of handwashing, and 4% (53/1468) by food not being covered properly. At baseline when asked to name three ways diarrheal diseases could be prevented, 35% (515/1468) of participants reported safe water, and 16% (228/1468) reported handwashing with soap. At the 12 month follow-up, the overall diarrhea knowledge score was significantly higher in mHealth with no home visits arm (score coefficient: 0.69, 95% Confidence Interval: 0.36, 1.01, p<0.0001) and the mHealth with two home visits arm (score coefficient: 1.18, 95% CI: 0.87, 1.50, p<0.0001) compared to the standard recommendation arm.

639,32406998,Safety and efficacy of the bioabsorbable polymer everolimus-eluting stent versus durable polymer drug-eluting stents in high-risk patients undergoing PCI: TWILIGHT-SYNERGY.,"BACKGROUND
Data examining the safety and efficacy of the bioabsorbable polymer (BP) drug-eluting stent (DES) as compared with durable polymer (DP) DES in high-risk patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) remain limited.
METHODS
We conducted a pre-specified analysis among patients enrolled in the TWILIGHT trial treated with the SYNERGY BP-DES or a DP-DES. Following successful PCI and 3 months of ticagrelor plus aspirin, patients were randomized to aspirin or placebo for 1 year; DES choice was at physician discretion. The primary endpoint was target lesion failure (TLF) [composite of cardiac death, target vessel myocardial infarction (MI), clinically driven target lesion revascularization (TLR) or definite/probable stent thrombosis (ST)].
RESULTS
Among enrolled participants (N = 9006), 653 were treated exclusively with the SYNERGY BP-DES and 6404 with a comparator DP-DES. Over 15 months, TLF rates were 6.4% and 6.1% among those receiving a SYNERGY BP-DES and a DP-DES, respectively (adjusted HR 0.93; 95% CI 0.64 - 1.35; p = 0.72). The effect of ticagrelor monotherapy on Bleeding Academic Research Consortium (BARC) type 2, 3 or 5 bleeding and the composite of all-cause death, MI or stroke was uniform across DES groups (both p int >0.10).
CONCLUSIONS
The safety and efficacy profile of the SYNERGY BP-DES is comparable to that of contemporary DP-DES in high-risk patients undergoing PCI. Compared to ticagrelor plus aspirin, the effect of ticagrelor monotherapy is consistent among patients receiving SYNERGY BP-DES or DP-DES. This article is protected by copyright.

640,32401557,Parent-Child Agreement on Family Accommodation Differentially Predicts Outcomes of Child-Based and Parent-Based Child Anxiety Treatment.,"Objectives : Family accommodation is linked to poor treatment outcomes for childhood anxiety. Progress in research on the role of accommodation in treatment has been hindered by the relatively weak association between child and parent reports on accommodation. In this study, we suggest that parent-child agreement on family accommodation may provide a dependable estimation of this construct, and investigated whether the level of parent-child agreement on family accommodation predicts subsequent treatment outcome. We further examined whether the effect was greater in Supportive Parenting for Anxious Childhood Emotions (SPACE), which directly targets family accommodation, than in individual child-focused cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). Methods : Participants were 104 children (aged 6-15) with anxiety disorders, and their mothers, randomized to SPACE or CBT. Accommodation was rated by mothers and children before treatment, halfway through treatment, and at treatment end, using respective versions of Family Accommodation Scale-Anxiety. To accurately estimate agreement, we conducted multilevel response surface analysis by polynomial regression, with agreement on accommodation at each time point predicting subsequent child anxiety severity, over the course of treatment. Results : Parent-child agreement and disagreement on accommodation were significant predictors of subsequent anxiety symptom severity. Different results were obtained for SPACE and CBT, suggesting potentially distinct underlying mechanisms. Conclusions : The findings suggest treatment-specific roles of accommodation in SPACE vs. CBT. Multiple-informant assessment of accommodation provides important information, which may have important implications for optimal treatment personalization.",2020,Parent-child agreement and disagreement on accommodation were significant predictors of subsequent anxiety symptom severity.,"['Participants were 104 children (aged 6-15) with anxiety disorders, and their mothers']",['SPACE or CBT'],['Family Accommodation'],"[{'cui': 'C4517527', 'cui_str': '104'}, {'cui': 'C0008059', 'cui_str': 'Child'}, {'cui': 'C0001779', 'cui_str': 'Age'}, {'cui': 'C0003469', 'cui_str': 'Anxiety disorder'}, {'cui': 'C0026591', 'cui_str': 'Mother'}]","[{'cui': 'C0085092', 'cui_str': 'Parenting behavior'}, {'cui': 'C0003467', 'cui_str': 'Anxiety'}, {'cui': 'C0231335', 'cui_str': 'Childhood'}, {'cui': 'C0013987', 'cui_str': 'Emotion'}, {'cui': 'C0009244', 'cui_str': 'Cognitive therapy'}]","[{'cui': 'C0015576', 'cui_str': 'Family'}, {'cui': 'C0000936', 'cui_str': 'Ocular accommodation'}]",104.0,0.0155443,Parent-child agreement and disagreement on accommodation were significant predictors of subsequent anxiety symptom severity.,"[{'ForeName': 'Sigal', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Zilcha-Mano', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Psychology, University of Haifa.'}, {'ForeName': 'Yaara', 'Initials': 'Y', 'LastName': 'Shimshoni', 'Affiliation': 'Child Study Center, School of Medicine, Yale University, Child Study Center, School of Medicine.'}, {'ForeName': 'Wendy K', 'Initials': 'WK', 'LastName': 'Silverman', 'Affiliation': 'Child Study Center, School of Medicine, Yale University, Child Study Center, School of Medicine.'}, {'ForeName': 'Eli R', 'Initials': 'ER', 'LastName': 'Lebowitz', 'Affiliation': 'Child Study Center, School of Medicine, Yale University, Child Study Center, School of Medicine.'}]","Journal of clinical child and adolescent psychology : the official journal for the Society of Clinical Child and Adolescent Psychology, American Psychological Association, Division 53",['10.1080/15374416.2020.1756300']

643,32401600,"Efficacy and safety of a booster dose of the meningococcal A, C, W, Y-tetanus toxoid conjugate vaccine administered 10 years after primary vaccination and long-term persistence of tetanus toxoid conjugate or polysaccharide vaccine.","A previous phase 3, randomized, multicenter study showed the immunogenicity of a primary vaccination of subjects aged 11 to 17 years with the quadrivalent meningococcal vaccine conjugated to tetanus toxoid (MenACWY-TT) or the quadrivalent meningococcal polysaccharide vaccine (MenACWY-PS). This extension study evaluated the safety and immunogenicity of a MenACWY-TT booster 10 years after receiving a primary dose of either MenACWY-TT or MenACWY-PS. The primary immunogenicity endpoint was booster response, evaluated using serum bactericidal antibody assays with rabbit complement (rSBA), 1 month postbooster. Safety endpoints included the percentage of subjects experiencing local and general adverse events (AEs) ≤4 days after MenACWY-TT booster. Of 229 subjects enrolled, 169 and 58 in the MenACWY-TT and MenACWY-PS groups, respectively, completed the booster phase. The 1 month postbooster response for each serogroup ranged from 81.5% to 95.7% for MenACWY-TT and 66.7% to 94.1% for MenACWY-PS. Similar percentages of MenACWY-TT and MenACWY-PS recipients had a booster response to serogroups A, W, and Y, whereas more MenACWY-TT recipients than MenACWY-PS recipients had a booster response to serogroup C. For the MenACWY-TT and MenACWY-PS groups, respectively, the MenACWY-TT booster elicited rSBA titers ≥1:8 in 100% and ≥98.0% of subjects across all serogroups; 100% and ≥96.1% of all subjects had titers ≥1:128. No new safety signals were observed during the booster phase.

645,32401715,"Triple combination of interferon beta-1b, lopinavir-ritonavir, and ribavirin in the treatment of patients admitted to hospital with COVID-19: an open-label, randomised, phase 2 trial.","BACKGROUND
Effective antiviral therapy is important for tackling the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. We assessed the efficacy and safety of combined interferon beta-1b, lopinavir-ritonavir, and ribavirin for treating patients with COVID-19.
METHODS
This was a multicentre, prospective, open-label, randomised, phase 2 trial in adults with COVID-19 who were admitted to six hospitals in Hong Kong. Patients were randomly assigned (2:1) to a 14-day combination of lopinavir 400 mg and ritonavir 100 mg every 12 h, ribavirin 400 mg every 12 h, and three doses of 8 million international units of interferon beta-1b on alternate days (combination group) or to 14 days of lopinavir 400 mg and ritonavir 100 mg every 12 h (control group). The primary endpoint was the time to providing a nasopharyngeal swab negative for severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 RT-PCR, and was done in the intention-to-treat population. The study is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT04276688.
FINDINGS
Between Feb 10 and March 20, 2020, 127 patients were recruited; 86 were randomly assigned to the combination group and 41 were assigned to the control group. The median number of days from symptom onset to start of study treatment was 5 days (IQR 3-7). The combination group had a significantly shorter median time from start of study treatment to negative nasopharyngeal swab (7 days [IQR 5-11]) than the control group (12 days [8-15]; hazard ratio 4·37 [95% CI 1·86-10·24], p=0·0010). Adverse events included self-limited nausea and diarrhoea with no difference between the two groups. One patient in the control group discontinued lopinavir-ritonavir because of biochemical hepatitis. No patients died during the study.
INTERPRETATION
Early triple antiviral therapy was safe and superior to lopinavir-ritonavir alone in alleviating symptoms and shortening the duration of viral shedding and hospital stay in patients with mild to moderate COVID-19. Future clinical study of a double antiviral therapy with interferon beta-1b as a backbone is warranted.

646,32401873,Skin picking treatment with the Rothbaum cognitive behavioral therapy protocol: a randomized clinical trial.,"INTRODUCTION
Although behavioral therapies can effectively treat skin picking disorder (SPD), there is no standardized treatment for improving SPD and its comorbidities and there is no group intervention option. This trial aimed to adapt the Rothbaum trichotillomania protocol to SPD (Study 1) and test its efficacy for treating SPD and comorbidities in individual and group formats (Study 2).
METHODS
The adapted protocol was applied to 16 SPD patients, who were allocated to group or individual treatment (Study 1). Afterwards, 54 patients were randomly allocated to treatment in an individual (n=27) or group format (n=27) (Study 2). In both studies, assessments of SPD severity, anxiety, depression, clinical status and skin lesion severity were performed at baseline and the endpoint.
RESULTS
The adapted protocol was feasible in both treatment modalities (Study 1) and led to high SPD remission rates (individual 63%; group 52%), with no significant difference between intervention types (p = 0.4) (Study 2). SPD, anxiety, and depression symptoms and objective patient lesion measures improved after treatment. There was large effect size for SPD symptom improvement in both treatment types (Cohen's d: group = 0.88; individual = 1.15) (Study 2).
CONCLUSION
The adapted Rothbaum protocol was effective for SPD remission, comorbidities, and skin lesions, both in individual and group formats.

647,32401905,Prevention of alcohol consumption and transmission of human immunodeficiency virus: randomized clinical trial.,"OBJECTIVE
to know the effects of a nursing intervention to reduce alcohol use and risk factors for transmission of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV).
METHOD
randomized single-blinded clinical trial performed by nurses with young women. The study included 66 participants in the intervention group and 66 participants in the control group. The instruments were the Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test, the HIV Risk Behavior Knowledge and the Condom Use Self-efficacy Scale. Analysis of variance was used.
RESULTS
alcohol involvement decreased in the intervention group (F (1.119) = 50.28; p < 0.001; η2p = 0.297), while HIV knowledge (F (1.130) = 34.34; p < 0.001; η2p = 0.209) and condom use self-efficacy increased (F (1.129) = 27.20; p < 0.001; η2p = 0.174). In addition, less participants consumed alcohol in the past week compared to the control group (χ2 = 15.95; p < 0.001).

648,32401935,Does use of silane-containing universal adhesive eliminate the need for silane application in direct composite repair?,"This in vitro study aimed to evaluate the effect of a silane-containing universal adhesive used with or without a silane agent on the repair bond strength between aged and new composites. Forty nanohybrid composite resin blocks were stored in distilled water for 14 d and thermo-cycled. Sandpaper ground, etched, and rinsed speciments were randomly assigned into four experimental groups: silane + two-step etch-and-rinse adhesive system, two-step etch-and-rinse adhesive system, silane + silane-containing universal adhesive system, and silane-containing universal adhesive system. Blocks were repaired using the same composite. After 24 h of water storage, the blocks were sectioned and bonded sticks were submitted to microtensile testing. Ten unaged, non-repaired composite blocks were used as a reference group to evaluate the cohesive strength of the composite. Two-way ANOVA and Tukey's tests were used to analyze average µTBS. One-way ANOVA and Dunnet post-hoc tests were used to compare the cohesive strength values and bond strength obtained in the repaired groups (α = 0.05). The µTBS values were higher for the silane-containing universal adhesive compared to the two-step etch-and-rinse adhesive system (p = 0.002). Silane application improved the repair bond strength (p = 0.03). The repair bond strength ranged from 39.3 to 65.8% of the cohesive strength of the reference group.

To compare the effects of hydrophobic and hydrophilic materials in square-edged acrylic intraocular lenses (IOLs) on the development of posterior capsule opacification (PCO) after pediatric cataract surgery.
METHODS
Patients were randomly assigned to group 1 (hydrophobic acrylic square-edged IOLs; 13 eyes) or group 2 (hydrophilic acrylic square-edged IOLs; 13 eyes). The study evaluated PCO rates using Evaluation of Posterior Capsule Opacification (EPCO) 2000 software at one, three, six and 12 months postoperatively. Postoperative measurements also included corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA), neodymium:yttrium-aluminum-garnet (Nd:YAG) capsulotomy and postoperative complications other than PCO.
RESULTS
Both groups had significant increases in PCO rates after one year. Comparison of the groups showed no significant differences in the EPCO scores at three (group 1, 0.007±0.016 vs group 2, 0.008±0.014; p=0.830), six (group 1, 0.062±0.103 vs group 2, 0.021±0.023; p=0.184), or twelve months postoperatively (group 1, 0.200±0.193 vs group 2, 0.192±0.138; p=0.902). We also found no significant group differences regarding the change (delta, Δ) in EPCO scores between three and six months (group 1, 0.055±0.09 vs group 2, 0.013±0.02; p=0.113) or between six and twelve months postoperatively (group 1, 0.139±0.14 vs group 2, 0.171±0.14; p=0.567). Twenty-three percent of patients required Nd:YAG capsulotomy at the twelve-month visit.

The association of body weight and weight change with mortality and cardiovascular (CV) outcome in patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) is not clearly established. We assessed the relationship between weight, weight change, and outcomes in patients with established CV risk factors and type 2 DM or pre-diabetes.
METHODS AND RESULTS
A total of 12 521 participants from the ORIGIN trial were grouped in BMI categories of low body weight [body mass index (BMI) < 22 kg/m2] normal (22-24.9), overweight (25-29.9), obesity Grades 1-3 (30-34.9, 35-39.9, ≥40 kg/m2, respectively). Outcome variables included total and CV mortality and composite outcomes of CV death, non-fatal stroke, or myocardial infarction plus revascularization or heart failure hospitalization. Follow-up was 6.2 years (interquartile range 5.8-6.7 years). After multivariable adjustment, lowest risks were seen in patients with overweight and mild obesity for total mortality [overweight: hazard ratio (HR) 0.80 (95% confidence interval (CI) 0.69-0.91); obesity Grade 1: HR 0.82 (0.71-0.95), both P < 0.01)] and CV mortality [overweight: HR 0.79 (0.66-0.94); obesity Grade 1: 0.79 (0.65-0.95), all compared to patients with normal BMI, P < 0.05]. Obesity of any severity was not associated with higher mortality. Low body weight was related to higher mortality [HR 1.28 (1.02-1.61); CV mortality: HR 1.34 (1.01-1.79), P < 0.05]. A continued 2-year weight loss was associated with higher risk of mortality [HR 1.32 (1.18-1.46), P < 0.0001] and CV mortality [HR 1.18 (1.02-1.35), compared to patients without weight loss, P < 0.05]. In turn, weight gain was not related to any adverse outcome.
CONCLUSION
Obesity in patients with DM or pre-diabetes and CV risk profile was not associated with higher mortality or adverse CV outcome. The lowest mortality risk was seen in patients with overweight and moderate obesity (BMI 25-35 kg/m2).

652,32402161,Randomized Trial of Lactin-V to Prevent Recurrence of Bacterial Vaginosis.,"BACKGROUND
Bacterial vaginosis affects 15 to 50% of women of reproductive age, and recurrence is common after treatment with an antibiotic agent. The high incidence of recurrence suggests the need for new treatments to prevent recurrent bacterial vaginosis.
METHODS
We conducted a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, phase 2b trial to evaluate the ability of Lactobacillus crispatus CTV-05 (Lactin-V) to prevent the recurrence of bacterial vaginosis. Women 18 to 45 years of age who had received a diagnosis of bacterial vaginosis and who had completed a course of vaginal metronidazole gel as part of the eligibility requirements were randomly assigned, in a 2:1 ratio, to receive vaginally administered Lactin-V or placebo for 11 weeks; follow-up occurred through week 24. The primary outcome was the percentage of women who had a recurrence of bacterial vaginosis by week 12.
RESULTS
A total of 228 women underwent randomization: 152 to the Lactin-V group and 76 to the placebo group; of these participants, 88% in the Lactin-V group and 84% in the placebo group could be evaluated for the primary outcome. In the intention-to-treat population, recurrence of bacterial vaginosis by week 12 occurred in 46 participants (30%) in the Lactin-V group and in 34 participants (45%) in the placebo group (risk ratio after multiple imputation for missing responses, 0.66; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.44 to 0.87; P = 0.01). The risk ratio for recurrence by week 24 (also calculated with multiple imputation for missing responses) was 0.73 (95% CI, 0.54 to 0.92). At the 12-week visit, L. crispatus CTV-05 was detected in 79% of participants in the Lactin-V group. The percentage of participants who had at least one adverse event related to Lactin-V or placebo by week 24 did not differ significantly between the groups. The percentage of participants with local or systemic adverse events was similar in the two groups.
CONCLUSIONS
The use of Lactin-V after treatment with vaginal metronidazole resulted in a significantly lower incidence of recurrence of bacterial vaginosis than placebo at 12 weeks.

653,32207048,"Effect of the ""Recruitment"" Maneuver on Respiratory Mechanics in Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy Surgery.","PURPOSE
LSG surgery is used for surgical treatment of morbid obesity. Obesity, anesthesia, and pneumoperitoneum cause reduced pulmoner functions and a tendency for atelectasis. The alveolar ""recruitment"" maneuver (RM) keeps airway pressure high, opening alveoli, and increasing arterial oxygenation. The aim of our study is to research the effect on respiratory mechanics and arterial blood gases of performing the RM in LSG surgery.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
Sixty patients undergoing LSG surgery were divided into two groups (n = 30) Patients in group R had the RM performed 5 min after desufflation with 100% oxygen, 40 cmH 2 O pressure for 40 s. Group C had standard mechanical ventilation. Assessments of respiratory mechanics and arterial blood gases were made in the 10th min after induction (T1), 10th min after insufflation (T2), 5th min after desufflation (T3), and 15th min after desufflation (T4). Arterial blood gases were assessed in the 30th min (T5) in the postoperative recovery unit.
RESULTS
In group R, values at T5, PaO 2 were significantly high, while PaCO 2 were significantly low compared with group C. Compliance in both groups reduced with pneumoperitoneum. At T4, the compliance in the recruitment group was higher. In both groups, there was an increase in PIP with pneumoperitoneum and after desufflation this was identified to reduce to levels before pneumoperitoneum.
CONCLUSION
Adding the RM to PEEP administration for morbidly obese patients undergoing LSG surgery is considered to be effective in improving respiratory mechanics and arterial blood gas values and can be used safely.",2020,"In group R, values at T5, PaO 2 were significantly high, while PaCO 2 were significantly low compared with group C.

654,32401106,Effect of elastic abdominal binder on pain and functional recovery after caesarean delivery: a randomised controlled trial.,"The Elastic abdominal binder has been widely employed by clinicians for pain relief, wound complications prevention, improved pulmonary function, and stabilisation. However, these proposed benefits have not been properly examined in women following caesarean delivery. We aimed to examine the effects of post-caesarean elastic abdominal binder use on recovery by comparing post-operative pain, mobility and quality of life. Pregnant women undergoing caesarean delivery were randomly assigned into two groups: abdominal binder (90 patients) and control (90 patients). The primary outcomes included the daily visual analogue scale pain scores and the distance from the six-minute walk test. Baseline characteristics were similar between the groups. There was no significant difference in pain scores and six-minute walking distance between the study groups. There was no significant between-group difference in quality-of-life dimensions, overall health status, and post-operative complication. The positive effects of elastic abdominal binder use following caesarean delivery could not be demonstrated in this study.Impact statement What is already known on this subject? Elastic abdominal binder is commonly used after laparotomy to support incision. There was evidence to support the benefit of abdominal binder in reducing psychological distress during the first five days following laparotomy for other indications. From limited number of studies addressing caesarean section, the evidence for the benefits of the binder on pain, symptom distress, and change in haemoglobin level is conflicting. What do the results of this study add? In contrast to the results of the previous study, the beneficial effects of abdominal binder on pain reduction, functional recovery, and quality of life following caesarean delivery could not be demonstrated in this study.

655,32401221,A Mobile Health App for the Collection of Functional Outcomes After Inpatient Stroke Rehabilitation: Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial.,"BACKGROUND
Monitoring the functional status of poststroke patients after they transition home is significant for rehabilitation. Mobile health (mHealth) technologies may provide an opportunity to reach and follow patients post discharge. However, the feasibility and validity of functional assessments administered by mHealth technologies are unknown.
OBJECTIVE
This study aimed to evaluate the feasibility, validity, and reliability of functional assessments administered through the videoconference function of a mobile phone-based app compared with administration through the telephone function in poststroke patients after rehabilitation hospitalization.
METHODS
A randomized controlled trial was conducted in a rehabilitation hospital in Southeast China. Participants were randomly assigned to either a videoconference follow-up (n=60) or a telephone follow-up (n=60) group. We measured the functional status of participants in each group at 2-week and 3-month follow-up periods. Half the participants in each group were followed by face-to-face home visit assessments as the gold standard. Validity was assessed by comparing any score differences between videoconference follow-up and home visit assessments, as well as telephone follow-up and home visit assessments. Reliability was assessed by computing agreements between videoconference follow-up and home visit assessments, as well as telephone follow-up and home visit assessments. Feasibility was evaluated by the levels of completion, satisfaction, comfort, and confidence in the 2 groups.
RESULTS
Scores obtained from the videoconference follow-up were similar to those of the home visit assessment. However, most scores collected from telephone administration were higher than those of the home visit assessment. The agreement between videoconference follow-up and home visit assessments was higher than that between telephone follow-up and home visit assessments at all follow-up periods. In the telephone follow-up group, completion rates were 95% and 82% at 2-week and 3-month follow-up points, respectively. In the videoconference follow-up group, completion rates were 95% and 80% at 2-week and 3-month follow-up points, respectively. There were no differences in the completion rates between the 2 groups at all follow-up periods (X 2 1 =1.6, P=.21 for 2-week follow-up; X 2 1 =1.9, P=.17 for 3-month follow-up). Patients in the videoconference follow-up group perceived higher confidence than those in the telephone follow-up group at both 2-week and 3-month follow-up periods (X 2 3 =6.7, P=.04 for 2-week follow-up; X 2 3 =8.0, P=.04 for 3-month follow-up). The videoconference follow-up group demonstrated higher satisfaction than the telephone follow-up group at 3-month follow-up (X 2 3 =13.9; P=.03).
CONCLUSIONS
The videoconference follow-up assessment of functional status demonstrates higher validity and reliability, as well as higher confidence and satisfaction perceived by patients, than the telephone assessment. The videoconference assessment provides an efficient means of assessing functional outcomes of patients after hospital discharge. This method provides a novel solution for clinical trials requiring longitudinal assessments.

656,32401225,Social Media Interventions for Risky Drinking Among Adolescents and Emerging Adults: Protocol for a Randomized Controlled Trial.,"BACKGROUND
Despite intervention efforts to date, the prevalence of risky drinking among adolescents and emerging adults remains high, increasing the risk for health consequences and the development of alcohol use disorders. Peer influences are particularly salient among this age group, including via social media. Thus, the development of efficacious early interventions for youth, delivered with a broad reach via trained peers on social media, could have an important role in addressing risky drinking and concomitant drug use.
OBJECTIVE
This paper describes the protocol of a randomized controlled trial (RCT) testing the efficacy of a social media intervention among adolescents and emerging adults who meet the criteria for risky drinking (using the Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test-Consumption [AUDIT-C]), delivered with and without financial incentives for participation, compared with an attention placebo control condition (ie, entertaining social media content), on alcohol consumption and consequences.
METHODS
This RCT involved recruiting 955 youths (aged 16-24 years) via advertisements on Facebook and Instagram to self-administer a brief web-based screening survey. Those screening positive for past 3-month risky drinking (AUDIT-C positive: ages 16-17 years: ≥3 females and ≥4 males; and ages 18-24 years: ≥4 females and ≥5 males) were eligible for the RCT. After providing consent (a waiver of parental consent was obtained for minors), participants completed a web-based baseline survey and several verification procedures, including a selfie photo matched to Facebook profile photos. Participants were then randomized to join invitation-only secret Facebook groups, which were not searchable or viewable by parents, friends, or anyone not recruited by the study. The 3 conditions were social media intervention with incentives, social media intervention without incentives (SMI), and attention placebo control. Each condition lasted 8 weeks and consisted of bachelor's-level and master's-level therapist electronic coaches posting relevant content and responding to participants' posts in a manner consistent with Motivational Interviewing. Participants in the control condition and SMI condition did not receive payments but were blind to condition assignment between these 2 conditions. Follow-ups are ongoing and occur at 3, 6, and 12 months poststart of the groups.
RESULTS
We enrolled 955 participants over 10 waves of recruitment who screened positive for risky drinking into the RCT.
CONCLUSIONS
The findings of this study will provide the critical next step in delivering early alcohol interventions to the youth, capitalizing on social media platforms, which could have significant public health impact by altering alcohol use trajectories of adolescents and emerging adults engaged in risky drinking.

657,32402688,Comparison of two strategies in a chest pain unit: stress echocardiography and multidetector computed tomography.,"INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES
This study aimed to compare stress echocardiography (SE) and multidetector computed tomography (MCT) in patients admitted to a chest pain unit to detect acute coronary syndrome (ACS).
METHODS
A total of 203 patients with ≥ 1 cardiovascular risk factor, no ischemic electrocardiogram changes and negative biomarkers were randomized to SE (n=103) or MTC (n=100). The primary endpoint was a combination of hard events (death and nonfatal myocardial infarction), revascularizations, and readmissions during follow-up. The secondary endpoint was the cost of the 2 strategies.
RESULTS
Invasive angiography was performed in 61 patients (34 [33%] in the SE group and in 27 [27%] in the MCT group, P=.15). A final diagnosis of ACS was made in 53 patients (88% vs 85%, P=.35). There were no significant differences between groups in the primary endpoint (42% vs 41%, P=.91), or in hard events (5% vs 7%, P=.42). There were no significant differences in overall cost, but costs were lower in patients with negative SE than in those with negative MCT (€557 vs €706, P <.02).
CONCLUSIONS

658,32402702,Pragmatic trial comparing routine versus no routine functional testing in high-risk patients who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention: Rationale and design of POST-PCI trial.,"BACKGROUND
Although the need to detect restenosis has diminished in the contemporary practice of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with drug-eluting stents (DES), the surveillance of ischemia owing to restenosis or disease progression deserves attention in high-risk PCI settings. It is unknown whether follow-up strategy of routine noninvasive functional testing potentially reduces the risk of major cardiovascular events in high-risk PCI patients.
METHODS
The POST-PCI study is an investigator-initiated, multicenter, prospective randomized trial comparing the effectiveness of two follow-up strategies in patients with high-risk anatomic or clinical characteristics who underwent PCI. Study participants were randomly assigned to either (1) the routine noninvasive stress testing (exercise electrocardiography, nuclear stress imaging, or stress echocardiography) at 12 months post-PCI or (2) the standard-care without routine testing. In the routine stress testing group, depending on the testing results, all clinical decisions regarding subsequent diagnostic or therapeutic procedures were at the treating physician's discretion. The primary endpoint was a composite outcome of death from any causes, myocardial infarction, or hospitalization for unstable angina at 2 years post-PCI.
RESULTS
More than 1700 high-risk PCI patients have been randomized over 2.0 years at 11 major cardiac centers in Korea.

659,32402732,Transversus abdominis plane block with liposomal bupivacaine and its effect on opiate use after weight loss surgery: a randomized controlled trial.,"BACKGROUND
Liposomal bupivacaine (LB), as an extended-release local anesthetic, may provide lasting pain control and therefore decrease the need for narcotics in the immediate postoperative period.
OBJECTIVES
The aim of this study was to evaluate whether transversus abdominis plane (TAP) block with LB decreased the use of postoperative narcotics compared with regular bupivacaine (RB) and no TAP block in patients undergoing weight loss procedures.
SETTING
A large, metropolitan, university-affiliated, tertiary hospital.
METHODS
Patients undergoing laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass, sleeve gastrectomy, or sleeve-to-bypass conversion over 1 year were randomized to receive TAP block using LB, TAP block with RB, or no block in a double-blind, randomized controlled trial. The outcomes measured were postoperative use of opiates, pain score, length of stay, time to ambulation, and nausea. Data were analyzed using χ 2 test and analysis of variance F test.
RESULTS
Two hundred nineteen patients were included in the study. Fentanyl patient-controlled analgesia usage was not significantly different between the groups (LB 351.4 versus RB 360.7 versus no TAP block 353.9, P = .97) at 48 hours post operation. The pain scores (scale 1-10) were similar among the groups with the mean for the LB group at 4.3, and RB and no TAP block groups both at 4.7 (P = .35). The type of block or lack of block did not significantly impact the length of stay, time to ambulation, or presence of nausea.

660,32403345,Listening to Preferred Music Improved Running Performance without Changing the Pacing Pattern during a 6 Minute Run Test with Young Male Adults.,"Several studies have investigated the effects of music on both submaximal and maximal exercise performance at a constant work-rate. However, there is a lack of research that has examined the effects of music on the pacing strategy during self-paced exercise. The aim of this study was to examine the effects of preferred music on performance and pacing during a 6 min run test (6-MSPRT) in young male adults. Twenty healthy male participants volunteered for this study. They performed two randomly assigned trials (with or without music) of a 6-MSPRT three days apart. Mean running speed, the adopted pacing strategy, total distance covered (TDC), peak and mean heart rate (HRpeak, HRmean), blood lactate (3 min after the test), and rate of perceived exertion (RPE) were measured. Listening to preferred music during the 6-MSPRT resulted in significant TDC improvement (Δ10%; p = 0.016; effect size (ES) = 0.80). A significantly faster mean running speed was observed when listening to music compared with no music. The improvement of TDC in the present study is explained by a significant overall increase in speed (main effect for conditions) during the music trial. Music failed to modify pacing patterns as suggested by the similar reversed ""J-shaped"" profile during the two conditions. Blood-lactate concentrations were significantly reduced by 9% ( p = 0.006, ES = 1.09) after the 6-MSPRT with music compared to those in the control condition. No statistically significant differences were found between the test conditions for HRpeak, HRmean, and RPE. Therefore, listening to preferred music can have positive effects on exercise performance during the 6-MSPRT, such as greater TDC, faster running speeds, and reduced blood lactate levels but has no effect on the pacing strategy.",2020,"Blood-lactate concentrations were significantly reduced by 9% ( p = 0.006, ES = 1.09) after the 6-MSPRT with music compared to those in the control condition.","['Twenty healthy male participants volunteered for this study', 'young male adults', 'Young Male Adults']","['preferred music on performance and pacing during a 6 min run test (6-MSPRT', 'Listening to Preferred Music Improved Running Performance without Changing the Pacing Pattern']","['TDC improvement', 'Blood-lactate concentrations', 'HRpeak, HRmean, and RPE', 'mean running speed', 'blood lactate levels', 'Mean running speed, the adopted pacing strategy, total distance covered (TDC), peak and mean heart rate (HRpeak, HRmean), blood lactate (3 min after the test), and rate of perceived exertion (RPE', 'exercise performance']","[{'cui': 'C0086582', 'cui_str': 'Male'}, {'cui': 'C0042960', 'cui_str': 'Voluntary worker'}, {'cui': 'C0008972', 'cui_str': 'Clinical Study'}, {'cui': 'C0332239', 'cui_str': 'Young'}, {'cui': 'C0001675', 'cui_str': 'Adult'}]","[{'cui': 'C0026867', 'cui_str': 'Music'}, {'cui': 'C0562458', 'cui_str': 'Pacing up and down'}, {'cui': 'C0439232', 'cui_str': 'min'}, {'cui': 'C0011991', 'cui_str': 'Diarrhea'}, {'cui': 'C0003647', 'cui_str': 'Aptitude Tests'}, {'cui': 'C0004309', 'cui_str': 'Auditory Perception'}, {'cui': 'C0184511', 'cui_str': 'Improved'}, {'cui': 'C0037400', 'cui_str': 'Social Change'}, {'cui': 'C0449774', 'cui_str': 'Patterns'}]","[{'cui': 'C0439810', 'cui_str': 'Total'}, {'cui': 'C0012751', 'cui_str': 'Distance'}, {'cui': 'C0439844', 'cui_str': 'Covered'}, {'cui': 'C0005767', 'cui_str': 'Blood'}, {'cui': 'C0022924', 'cui_str': 'Lactates'}, {'cui': 'C0004268', 'cui_str': 'Attention'}, {'cui': 'C0030971', 'cui_str': 'Perception'}, {'cui': 'C0015264', 'cui_str': 'Exertion'}, {'cui': 'C0444504', 'cui_str': 'Mean'}, {'cui': 'C0011991', 'cui_str': 'Diarrhea'}, {'cui': 'C0025611', 'cui_str': 'Methamphetamine'}, {'cui': 'C0428445', 'cui_str': 'D-lactate measurement'}, {'cui': 'C0425382', 'cui_str': 'Adopted'}, {'cui': 'C0562458', 'cui_str': 'Pacing up and down'}, {'cui': 'C0444505', 'cui_str': 'Peak'}, {'cui': 'C0018810', 'cui_str': 'Heart rate'}, {'cui': 'C0439232', 'cui_str': 'min'}, {'cui': 'C0003647', 'cui_str': 'Aptitude Tests'}, {'cui': 'C0015259', 'cui_str': 'Exercise'}]",20.0,0.116964,"Blood-lactate concentrations were significantly reduced by 9% ( p = 0.006, ES = 1.09) after the 6-MSPRT with music compared to those in the control condition.","[{'ForeName': 'Nidhal', 'Initials': 'N', 'LastName': 'Jebabli', 'Affiliation': 'Health and Movement (2SHM) Laboratory, Sport Sciences, High Institute of Sport and Physical Education of Kef, University of Jendouba, le Kef 7001, Tunisia.'}, {'ForeName': 'Urs', 'Initials': 'U', 'LastName': 'Granacher', 'Affiliation': 'Division of Training and Movement Sciences, University of Potsdam, 14469 Potsdam, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Mohamed Amin', 'Initials': 'MA', 'LastName': 'Selmi', 'Affiliation': 'Tunisian Research Laboratory ""Sport Performance Optimization"", National Center of Medicine and Science in Sports (CNMSS), Tunis 1003, Tunisia.'}, {'ForeName': 'Badriya', 'Initials': 'B', 'LastName': 'Al-Haddabi', 'Affiliation': 'Physical Education Department, College of Education, Sultan Qaboos University, Muscat 123, Oman.'}, {'ForeName': 'David G', 'Initials': 'DG', 'LastName': 'Behm', 'Affiliation': ""School of Human Kinetics and Recreation, Memorial University of Newfoundland, St. John's, NL A1C 5S7, Canada.""}, {'ForeName': 'Anis', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Chaouachi', 'Affiliation': 'Tunisian Research Laboratory ""Sport Performance Optimization"", National Center of Medicine and Science in Sports (CNMSS), Tunis 1003, Tunisia.'}, {'ForeName': 'Radhouane Haj', 'Initials': 'RH', 'LastName': 'Sassi', 'Affiliation': 'Physical Education Department, College of Education, Sultan Qaboos University, Muscat 123, Oman.'}]","Sports (Basel, Switzerland)",['10.3390/sports8050061']
661,32403367,The Impact of Glucose-Based or Lipid-Based Total Parenteral Nutrition on the Free Fatty Acids Profile in Critically Ill Patients.,"INTRODUCTION
Our study aim was to assess how the macronutrient intake during total parenteral nutrition (TPN) modulates plasma total free fatty acids (FFAs) levels and individual fatty acids in critically ill patients.
METHOD
Adult patients aged 18-80, admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU), who were indicated for TPN, with an expected duration of more than three days, were included in the study. Isoenergetic and isonitrogenous TPN solutions were given with a major non-protein energy source, which was glucose (group G) or glucose and lipid emulsions (Smof lipid; group L). Blood samples were collected on days 0, 1, 3, 6, 9, 14, and 28.
RESULTS
A significant decrease ( p < 0.001) in total FFAs occurred in both groups with a bigger decrease in group G ( p < 0.001) from day 0 (0.41 ± 0.19 mmol∙L -1 ) to day 28 (0.10 ± 0.07 mmol∙L -1 ). Increased palmitooleic acid and decreased linoleic and docosahexaenoic acids, with a trend of increased mead acid to arachidonic acid ratio, on day 28 were observed in group G in comparison with group L. Group G had an insignificant increase in leptin with no differences in the concentrations of vitamin E, triacylglycerides, and plasminogen activator inhibitor-1.
CONCLUSION
Decreased plasma FFA in critically ill patients who receive TPN may result from increased insulin sensitivity with a better effect in group G, owing to higher insulin and glucose dosing and no lipid emulsions. It is advisable to include a lipid emulsion at the latest from three weeks of TPN to prevent essential fatty acid deficiency.",2020,A significant decrease ( p < 0.001) in total FFAs occurred in both

662,32403902,"Effects of Oral Procaterol for Postinfectious Cough in Adults: Single-Centre, Randomized Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Trial.","Background
Persistent cough following an upper respiratory tract infection (URTI) is common in clinical practice. We investigated the effects of procaterol on cough-specific quality of life (QoL) and peripheral-airway function among adults suffering from postinfectious cough (PIC).
Methods
This was a prospective, randomized, double-blinded placebo-controlled trial (NCT02349919) conducted at a university hospital. Seventy-four non-asthmatic adults who had persistent post-URTI cough for ≥3 weeks were assessed by a physical examination, chest/paranasal sinus radiographs, spirometry, and impulse oscillometry (IOS) and were allocated to receive procaterol or placebo for 4 weeks. The Thai version of the Leicester Cough Questionnaire (LCQ-T), spirometry and IOS were assessed at baseline, 2 weeks, and 4 weeks.
Results
Mean LCQ-T total scores for the procaterol group (10.8) and placebo group (10.9) at baseline were not significantly different (P=0.821). After adjustment for baseline Borg Cough Scale score and post-nasal drip, the mean between-group difference was not significant for LCQ-T total score (-1.26; 95% confidence interval [CI], -2.69 to 0.17), physical domain score (-0.35; 95% CI, -0.76 to 0.06), psychological domain score (-0.53; 95% CI, -1.06 to 0.01), or social domain score (-0.38; 95% CI, -0.92 to 0.16). Large improvements in LCQ-T total score were reported in both groups after 2 weeks (procaterol, 4.21±2.73; placebo, 5.34±3.2), and 4 weeks (procaterol, 5.94±3.68; placebo, 7.07±3.44). No differences between groups were found in the mean changes of spirometry or IOS parameters after 4 weeks.

663,32403938,Effectiveness of embedding a specialist preventive care clinician in a community mental health service in increasing preventive care provision: A randomised controlled trial.,"OBJECTIVE
Clinical practice guidelines recommend that community mental health services provide preventive care for clients' chronic disease risk behaviours; however, such care is often not routinely provided. This study aimed to assess the effectiveness of offering clients an additional consultation with a specialist clinician embedded within a community mental health service, in increasing client-reported receipt of, and satisfaction with, preventive care.
METHOD
A randomised controlled trial was undertaken in one Australian community mental health service. Participants ( N = 811) were randomised to receive usual care (preventive care in routine consultations; n = 405) or usual care plus the offer of an additional consultation with a specialist preventive care clinician ( n = 406). Blinded interviewers assessed at baseline and 1-month follow-up the client-reported receipt of preventive care (assessment, advice and referral) for four key risk behaviours individually (smoking, poor nutrition, alcohol overconsumption and physical inactivity) and all applicable risks combined, acceptance of referrals and satisfaction with preventive care received.
RESULTS
Analyses indicated significantly greater increases in 12 of the 18 preventive care delivery outcomes in the intervention compared to the usual care condition from baseline to follow-up, including assessment for all risks combined (risk ratio = 4.00; 95% confidence interval = [1.57, 10.22]), advice for all applicable risks combined (risk ratio = 2.40; 95% confidence interval = [1.89, 6.47]) and offer of referral to applicable telephone services combined (risk ratio = 20.13; 95% confidence interval = [2.56, 158.04]). For each component of care, there was a significant intervention effect for at least one of the individual risk behaviours. Participants reported high levels of satisfaction with preventive care received, ranging from 77% (assessment) to 87% (referral), with no significant differences between conditions.
CONCLUSION
The intervention had a significant effect on the provision of the majority of recommended elements of preventive care. Further research is needed to maximise its impact, including identifying strategies to increase client uptake.",2020,"RESULTS

664,32404181,Reducing sitting at work: process evaluation of the SMArT Work (Stand More At Work) intervention.,"BACKGROUND
Office-based workers accumulate high amounts of sitting time. Stand More At Work (SMArT Work) aimed to reduce occupational sitting time and a cluster randomised controlled trial demonstrated it was successful in achieving this aim. The purpose of this paper is to present the process evaluation of the SMArT Work intervention.
METHODS
Questionnaire data were collected from intervention participants at 6 months (n = 58) and 12 months (n = 55). Questionnaires sought feedback on the different components of the intervention (education, height-adjustable desk, Darma cushion, behaviour feedback, progress chats (coaching) with research team, action planning/goal setting diary) and experiences of evaluation measures. Control participants (n = 37) were asked via questionnaire at 12-month follow-up about the impact of the study on their behaviour and any lifestyle changes made during the study. Participants from both arms were invited to focus groups to gain a deeper understanding of their experiences on completion of 12-month follow-up.
RESULTS
Focus group and questionnaire data showed a positive attitude towards the height-adjustable workstation with a high proportion of participants using it every day (62%). Most participants (92%) felt the education seminar increased their awareness of the health consequences of too much sitting and motivated them to change their behaviour. Receiving feedback on their sitting time and support from the research team also encouraged behaviour change. The Darma cushion and action planning/goal setting diary were seen to be less helpful for behaviour change. Benefits experienced included fewer aches and pains, improved cognitive functioning, increased productivity, more energy and positive feelings about general health.
CONCLUSIONS
Key elements of the programme identified as facilitating behaviour change were the educational seminar, the height-adjustable workstation, behavioural feedback and regular contact with research staff through regular progress chats.

665,32404226,"Efficacy of internet-delivered acceptance and commitment therapy for severe health anxiety: results from a randomized, controlled trial.","BACKGROUND
Health anxiety is common, disabling and costly due to patients' extensive use of health care services. Internet-delivered treatment may overcome barriers of accessibility to specialized treatment. We aimed to evaluate the efficacy of internet-delivered acceptance and commitment therapy (iACT).
METHODS
A randomized, controlled trial of iACT versus an internet-delivered discussion forum (iFORUM), performed in a Danish university hospital setting. Patients self-referred and underwent video-diagnostic assessment. Eligible patients (≥18 years) with health anxiety were randomized to 12 weeks of intervention. The randomization was blinded for the assessor. The primary outcome was between-group unadjusted mean differences in health anxiety symptoms measured by the Whiteley-7 Index (WI-7, range 0-100) from baseline to 6-month follow-up (6-MFU) using intention to treat and a linear mixed model. The study is registered at clinicaltrials.gov, number NCT02735434.
RESULTS
A total of 151 patients self-referred, and 101 patients were randomized to iACT (n = 53) or iFORUM (n = 48). A mean difference in change over time of 19.0 points [95% confidence interval (CI) 10.8-27.2, p < 0.001] was shown on the WI-7, and a large standardized effect size of d = 0.80 (95% CI 0.38-1.23) at 6-MFU. The number needed to treat was 2.8 (95% CI 1.8-6.1, p < 0.001), and twice as many patients in iACT were no longer clinical cases (35% v. 16%; risk ratio 2.17, 95% CI 1.00-4.70, p = 0.050). Adverse events were few and insignificant.

666,32404279,Stimulation of the vagus nerve reduces learning in a go/no-go reinforcement learning task.,"When facing decisions to approach rewards or to avoid punishments, we often figuratively go with our gut, and the impact of metabolic states such as hunger on motivation are well documented. However, whether and how vagal feedback signals from the gut influence instrumental actions is unknown. Here, we investigated the effect of non-invasive transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation (taVNS) vs. sham (randomized cross-over design) on approach and avoidance behavior using an established go/no-go reinforcement learning paradigm in 39 healthy human participants (23 female) after an overnight fast. First, mixed-effects logistic regression analysis of choice accuracy showed that taVNS acutely impaired decision-making, p = .041. Computational reinforcement learning models identified the cause of this as a reduction in the learning rate through taVNS (∆α = -0.092, p boot = .002), particularly after punishment (∆α Pun = -0.081, p boot = .012 vs. ∆α Rew =-0.031, p boot = .22).

667,32404287,Cardiopulmonary exercise testing and aerobic treadmill training after stroke: Feasibility of a controlled trial.,"PURPOSE
To investigate the feasibility and safety of a randomized controlled trial that performed cardiopulmonary exercise testing and 12 weeks of aerobic treadmill training in individuals in the chronic phase after stroke.
METHODS
The following data were recorded: number of individuals contacted to participate, that attended in the evaluation session, and that were included (recruited) in the study; retention, attendance and adherence rates; reasons for exclusion, withdrawal, non-attendance and non-completing exercise; adverse events.
RESULTS
From 230 individuals that were contacted, 39 (17%) attended the evaluation session and 22 (9.6%) were recruited in the study, 11 in each group (control and experimental). The main source of recruitment was other research projects (43.5%). The main reason for exclusion was unavailability (22%). Six out of 39 individuals (15.4%) that attended in the evaluation session were not able to perform the cardiopulmonary exercise testing. All subjects included showed a respiratory exchange ratio ≥1.0 (considered as maximal effort in the CPET). Retention rate was 81% and the main reason of withdrawal was unavailability (75%). The overall attendance rate was 88% and the main reason for non-attendance was illness/sickness (20.8%). The adherence rate was 99% and the reasons for non-completing sessions were illness/sickness (60%) or delay (40%). No serious adverse events occurred.
CONCLUSION
Recruitment rate was low, retention rate was moderate, attendance and adherence rates were high. No serious adverse events occurred. It was feasible and safe to execute a randomized clinical trial that performed cardiopulmonary exercise testing and 12 weeks of aerobic treadmill training.",2020,"No serious adverse events occurred.

668,32404342,"Canakinumab for Treatment of Adult-Onset Still's Disease to Achieve Reduction of Arthritic Manifestation (CONSIDER): phase II, randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicentre, investigator-initiated trial.","BACKGROUND
Inhibition of interleukin (IL)-1 represents a promising treatment option in adult-onset Still's disease (AOSD).
OBJECTIVE
To investigate the efficacy and safety of canakinumab in patients with AOSD and active joint involvement by means of a multicentre, double-blind, randomised, placebo-controlled trial.
METHODS
Patients with AOSD and active joint involvement (tender and swollen joint counts of ≥4 each) were treated with canakinumab (4 mg/kg, maximum 300 mg subcutaneous every 4 weeks) or placebo. The primary endpoint was the proportion of patients with a clinically relevant reduction in disease activity at week 12 as determined by the change in disease activity score (ΔDAS28>1.2).
RESULTS
At enrolment, patients had high active disease with a mean DAS28(ESR) of 5.4 in the canakinumab and 5.3 in the placebo group, respectively. In the intention-to-treat analysis, 12 patients (67%) in the canakinumab group and 7 patients (41%) in the placebo group fulfilled the primary outcome criterion (p=0.18). In the per-protocol analysis, significantly higher American College of Rheumatology (ACR) 30% (61% vs 20%, p=0.033), ACR 50% (50% vs 6.7%, p=0.009) and ACR 70% (28% vs 0%, p=0.049) response rates were observed in the canakinumab group compared with the placebo group. Two patients in the canakinumab group experienced a serious adverse event.
CONCLUSION
Although the study was terminated prematurely and the primary endpoint was not achieved, treatment with canakinumab led to an improvement of several outcome measures in AOSD. The overall safety findings were consistent with the known profile of canakinumab. Thus, our data support indication for IL-1 inhibition with canakinumab in AOSD.",2020,"Two patients in the canakinumab group experienced a serious adverse event.

669,32199656,[Effectiveness of magnesium sulfate compared to rocuronium for rapid sequence tracheal intubation in adults: clinical randomized trial].,"INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES
Magnesium sulfate has been used in anesthesia because it has relevant clinical features such as: analgesia, autonomic response control and muscle relaxation. Using the agent to establish adequate conditions for tracheal intubation remains controversial. The aim of the study was to compare the effectiveness of magnesium sulfate and rocuronium for rapid sequence tracheal intubation in adults.
METHODS
Double blind, randomized, unicentric, prospective study assessed 68 patients, ASA 1 or 2, over 18 years, scheduled for appendectomy under general anesthesia. Patients were divided into two groups. GM patients received 50 mg.kg -1 magnesium sulfate and GR patients, 1 mg.kg -1 rocuronium immediately before anesthesia induction. Arterial Blood Pressure (BP) and Heart Rate (HR) were measured in both groups at five times related to the administration of the drugs studied. The primary variable was the clinical status of tracheal intubation.
TRIAL REGISTRY
RBR-4xr92k.
RESULTS
GM was associated with no significant hemodynamic parameter change after injection. GM showed 85% (29/34) poor intubation clinical status, 15% (5/34) good, and 0% excellent (< 0.0001).

670,32200512,Efficacy and Safety of Ixekizumab Through 5 Years in Moderate-to-Severe Psoriasis: Long-Term Results from the UNCOVER-1 and UNCOVER-2 Phase-3 Randomized Controlled Trials.,"INTRODUCTION
Ixekizumab, a high-affinity monoclonal antibody that selectively targets interleukin-17A, is approved for treatment of moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis. Our objective was to evaluate the long-term efficacy and safety of ixekizumab in moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis through 5 years.
METHODS
Data were integrated from the UNCOVER-1 and UNCOVER-2, randomized, double-blinded, phase-3 trials. Patients who continuously received the labeled ixekizumab dose, were static Physician's Global Assessment (sPGA) (0,1) responders at Week 12 and completed 60 weeks of treatment could enter the long-term extension (LTE) period. Patients could escalate to every-2-week dosing per investigator opinion. Efficacy and health outcomes included proportion of patients achieving Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) 75/90/100, sPGA (0,1) and (0), absolute PASI ≤ 5/ ≤ 3/ ≤ 2/ ≤ 1 and Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI) (0,1). Results exclude patients who escalated to every-2-week dosing. A modified non-responder imputation method was used to account for missing data. Supplemental analyses include patients who escalated to every-2-week dosing and observed and multiple imputation results. Exposure-adjusted safety outcomes are also reported.
RESULTS
Of 206 patients who entered the LTE periods, 172 completed treatment. At Week 60, PASI 75/90/100 responses were 94.7%, 85.0% and 62.1%, respectively, and at year 5 were 90.3%, 71.3% and 46.3%, respectively. Similarly, meaningful responses were achieved for the other efficacy and health measures. Among patients with PASI 100 through 5 years, 92% achieved DLQI (0,1), indicating no impact of skin disease on quality of life. During the LTE period, exposure-adjusted incidence rates were 31.4 per 100 patient-years for treatment-emergent adverse events and 6.8 per 100 patient-years for serious adverse events. No deaths were reported. No new or unexpected safety findings were noted.
CONCLUSIONS
The results demonstrate 80 mg ixekizumab maintains long-term efficacy and a safety profile consistent with previous data in patients with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis through 5 years of treatment.

Methods: The sample consisted of 22 patients with two impacted third molars, in symmetrical position; divided into two groups: Test Group (TG) with Real Energy Regulation Group and Sham Group (SG) with Acupuncture without Energy Regulation function. The extraction was performed 30 days apart. Energy flow (Ryodoraku Method) and energy regulation performed before extraction were measured. Heart Rate (HR) and Blood Pressure (BP) were evaluated before and after energy regulation and after surgery, residual edema was measured by facial measurements (angle of the mandible to tragus (A-T); angle of the mandible to labial commissure (A-LC); angle of the mandible to the wing of the nose (A-WN); angle of the mandible to the corner of the eye (A-CE); angle of the mandible to the chin (AC); and mouth opening by the interincisal distance, before and after seven days of surgery. To quantify intraoperative bleeding (ml), blood was aspirated along with the saline solution using a portable vacuum pump adaptor. The amount of saline solution used was subtracted from the final amount of aspirated fluid.
Results: Mean of bleeding was lower in TG (p=0.0392). There were significant differences between groups in facial distances: A-LC (p=0.010), A-WN (p=0.030) and A-C (p=0.008).

Evidence regarding sleep depth marked by slow-wave activity (<4 Hz) is more mixed. Distinguishing subcomponents of slow-wave activity (slow-oscillation (<1 Hz) or delta activity (1-4 Hz)) may be critical in understanding these discrepancies, given that these oscillations have different neural generators and are functionally distinct. Here we tested the effects of insomnia diagnosis and insomnia treatment on NREM EEG in older adults, distinguishing slow-oscillation and delta power.
METHODS
In 93 older adults with insomnia and 71 good sleeper control participants (mean ages 68), effects of insomnia and cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBTI) (insomnia group only) on EEG spectral power were analyzed. Main effects and interactions with NREM period were assessed for the following frequency bands: slow-oscillation (0.5-1 Hz), delta (1-4 Hz), theta (4-8 Hz), alpha (8-12 Hz), sigma (12-16Hz), and beta (16-32 Hz).
RESULTS
Slow-oscillation absolute and relative power were lower in the insomnia group compared with controls. There were no group differences in delta power. Insomnia was also associated with elevated 4-32 Hz absolute and relative power. After CBTI, absolute sigma and beta activity decreased.
CONCLUSIONS
Deficits in slow-wave activity in insomnia are specific to the slow-oscillation. Elevated high frequency activity is reduced for sigma and beta power following CBTI.

677,32403066,A controlled clinical crossover trial of exercise training to improve cognition and neural communication in pediatric brain tumor survivors.,"OBJECTIVE
To assess the efficacy of aerobic exercise training to improve controlled attention, information processing speed and neural communication during increasing task load and rest in pediatric brain tumor survivors (PBTS) treated with cranial radiation.
METHODS
Participants completed visual-motor Go and Go/No-Go tasks during magnetoencephalography recording prior to and following the completion of 12-weeks of exercise training. Exercise-related changes in response accuracy and visual-motor latency were evaluated with Linear Mixed models. The Phase Lag Index (PLI) was used to estimate functional connectivity during task performance and rest. Changes in PLI values after exercise training were assessed using Partial Least Squares analysis.
RESULTS
Exercise training predicted sustained (12-weeks) improvement in response accuracy (p<0.05) during No-Go trials. Altered functional connectivity was detected in theta (4-7Hz) alpha (8-12Hz) and high gamma (60-100Hz) frequency bands (p<0.001) during Go and Go/No-Go trials. Significant changes in response latency and resting state connectivity were not detected.
CONCLUSION
These findings support the efficacy of aerobic exercise to improve controlled attention and enhance functional mechanisms under increasing task load in participants.

678,32403115,Delayed iron does not alter cognition or behavior among children with severe malaria and iron deficiency.,"BACKGROUND
Malaria and iron deficiency (ID) in childhood are both associated with cognitive and behavioral dysfunction. The current standard of care for children with malaria and ID is concurrent antimalarial and iron therapy. Delaying iron therapy until inflammation subsides could increase iron absorption but also impair cognition.
METHODS
In this study, Ugandan children 18 months to 5 years old with cerebral malaria (CM, n = 79), severe malarial anemia (SMA, n = 77), or community children (CC, n = 83) were enrolled and tested for ID. Children with ID were randomized to immediate vs. 28-day delayed iron therapy. Cognitive and neurobehavioral outcomes were assessed at baseline and 6 and 12 months (primary endpoint) after enrollment.
RESULTS
All children with CM or SMA and 35 CC had ID (zinc protoporphyrin concentration ≥80 μmol/mol heme). No significant differences were seen at 12-month follow-up in overall cognitive ability, attention, associative memory, or behavioral outcomes between immediate and delayed iron treatment (mean difference (standard error of mean) ranged from -0.2 (0.39) to 0.98 (0.5), all P ≥ 0.06).
CONCLUSIONS
Children with CM or SMA and ID who received immediate vs. delayed iron therapy had similar cognitive and neurobehavioral outcomes at 12-month follow-up.
IMPACT
The optimal time to provide iron therapy in children with severe malaria is not known. The present study shows that delay of iron treatment to 28 days after the malaria episode, does not lead to worse cognitive or behavioral outcomes at 12-month follow-up.The study contributes new data to the ongoing discussion of how best to treat ID in children with severe malaria.",2020,"No significant differences were seen at 12-month follow-up in overall cognitive ability, attention, associative memory, or behavioral outcomes between immediate and delayed iron treatment (mean difference (standard error of mean) ranged from -0.2 (0.39) to 0.98 (0.5), all P ≥ 0.06).

Two metabotropic glutamate receptor 2/3 (mGluR2/3) agonists (pomaglumetad [POMA] and TS-134) were assessed in two Phase Ib proof of mechanism studies of comparable designs and using identical clinical assessments and pharmacoBOLD methodology. POMA was examined in a randomized controlled trial under double-blind conditions for 10-days at doses of 80 or 320 mg/d POMA versus placebo (1:1:1 ratio). The TS-134 trial was a randomized, single-blind, 6-day study of 20 or 60 mg/d TS-134 versus placebo (5:5:2 ratio). Primary outcomes were ketamine-induced changes in pharmacoBOLD in the dorsal anterior cingulate cortex (dACC) and symptoms reflected on the Brief Psychiatric Rating Scale (BPRS). Both trials were conducted contemporaneously. 95 healthy volunteers were randomized to POMA and 63 to TS-134. High-dose POMA significantly reduced ketamine-induced BPRS total symptoms within and between-groups (p < 0.01, d = -0.41; p = 0.04, d = -0.44, respectively), but neither POMA dose significantly suppressed ketamine-induced dACC pharmacoBOLD. In contrast, low-dose TS-134 led to moderate to large within and between group reductions in both BPRS positive symptoms (p = 0.02, d = -0.36; p = 0.008, d = -0.82, respectively) and dACC pharmacoBOLD (p = 0.004, d = -0.56; p = 0.079, d = -0.50, respectively) using pooled across-study placebo data. High-dose POMA exerted significant effects on clinical symptoms, but not on target engagement, suggesting a higher dose may yet be needed, while the low dose of TS-134 showed evidence of symptom reduction and target engagement.

680,32404130,"Effect of mobile text messages on antiretroviral medication adherence and patient retention in early HIV care: an open-label, randomized, single center study in south Florida.","BACKGROUND
People with HIV (PHIV) with limited access to health services often experience suboptimal antiretroviral therapy (ART) adherence. We investigated whether a daily text messaging intervention improves ART adherence and retention in early HIV care in PHIV in a south Florida hospital-based clinic.
METHODS
ART-naïve PHIV receiving care through the clinic's Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program were enrolled and randomly assigned to the intervention or control groups with a 1:1 ratio. The intervention group received a 1-way text message daily and the control group received standard care without receiving text message reminders for 6 months. HIV RNA and CD4 cell count were measured at baseline and post-intervention. Adherence to ART was defined as a visual analog scale of ≥ 90%. Retention in care was defined as continued engagement at study end.
RESULTS
94 ART-naïve patients were randomized and 83 (85.6%) completed the study, of which 44 were in the intervention group and 39 were in the control group. At the end of the 6-month study period, adherence to ART was 84.4% in the intervention group versus 73.5% in the control group (OR, 1.9; 95% CI 0.7-5.0; p = 0.194). Retention in care significantly improved in the intervention group compared to the control group with the odds of retention increasing by 20% (OR, 1.2; 95% CI 1.1-1.5; p = 0.006). Undetectable HIV RNA (< 50 copies/mL) was 86.7% in the intervention group versus 73.5% in the control group (OR, 2.3; 95% CI 0.8-6.9; p = 0.112). A significant increase in CD4 cell count and a decrease in HIV RNA were found at study end, with no differences between the two groups.

681,32404132,Rehabilitation of older people with Parkinson's disease: an innovative protocol for RCT study to evaluate the potential of robotic-based technologies.,"BACKGROUND
Parkinson's disease is one of the most frequent causes of disability among the older adults. It is a chronic-progressive neuro-degenerative disease, characterized by several motor disorders. Balance disorders are a symptom that involves the body axis and do not respond to dopaminergic therapy used in Parkinson's disease. Therefore, physiotherapy becomes an important intervention for the management of motor disorders. Originally, these rehabilitative approaches were based on empirical experiences, but several scientific evidences suggests that neuronal plasticity is exercise-dependent. In this context, robotic rehabilitation plays an important role because it allows to perform task-oriented exercises and to increase the number of repetitions and their intensity. This protocol study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of robotic-based intervention of the older adults with Parkinson's disease, designed to improve the gait and to reduce the risk of falling.
METHODS
This study is a single-blinded randomized controlled trial. The primary outcomes are: risk of falling, gait performance and fear of falling measured through Performance-Oriented Mobility Assessment (POMA), instrumental gait analysis and Short Falls Efficacy Scale - International (FES-I), respectively. One hundred ninety-five patients with PD will be recruited and randomly divided into three groups, to receive a traditional rehabilitation program or a robotic rehabilitation using Tymo system or Walker View in addition to the traditional therapy. Assessments will be performed at baseline, at the end of treatment and 6 months, 1 year and 2 years from the end of the treatment. A 10-treatment session will be conducted, divided into 2 training sessions per week, for 5 weeks. The control group will perform traditional therapy sessions lasting 50 min. The technological intervention group will carry out 30 min of traditional therapy and 20 min of treatment with a robotic system.
DISCUSSION
The final goals of the present study are to propose a new approach in the PD rehabilitation, focused on the use of robotic device, and to check the results not only at the end of the treatment but also in the long term.

682,32404133,Efficacy of a physical activity programme combining individualized aerobic exercise and coaching to improve physical fitness in neuromuscular diseases (I'M FINE): study protocol of a randomized controlled trial.,"BACKGROUND
In individuals with neuromuscular diseases (NMD), symptoms of muscle weakness, fatigue and pain may limit physical activity. Inactivity leads to reduced physical fitness, which further complicates daily life functioning. Due to inconclusive evidence regarding exercise in NMD, the optimal training approach and strategies to preserve an active lifestyle remain to be determined. The physical activity programme I'M FINE, consisting of individualized aerobic exercise to improve physical fitness and coaching to preserve an active lifestyle, was therefore developed. The primary objective of this study will be to evaluate the efficacy of the I'M FINE programme in terms of improved physical fitness in individuals with slowly progressive NMD, compared to usual care.
METHODS
A multicentre, assessor-blinded, two armed, randomized controlled trial will be conducted in a sample of 90 individuals with slowly progressive NMD. Participants motivated to improve their reduced physical fitness will be randomized (ratio 1:1) to the I'M FINE intervention or usual care. The I'M FINE intervention consists of a six-month physical activity programme, including individualized home-based aerobic exercise to improve physical fitness (i.e. peak oxygen uptake), and motivational interviewing coaching (e.g. goal setting, self-management) to adopt and preserve an active lifestyle. Measurements will be performed at baseline, post-intervention, and at 12- and 18-months follow-up. The primary outcome is peak oxygen uptake (VO 2 peak) directly post intervention. Main secondary outcomes are physical capacity, muscle strength, self-efficacy, daily activity, quality of life and markers of metabolic syndrome. The primary analysis compares change in VO 2 peak post-intervention between the intervention and usual care group, with analysis of covariance.
DISCUSSION
The I'M FINE study will provide evidence regarding the efficacy of a physical activity intervention on the physical fitness and active lifestyle over the short- and long-term in individuals with slowly progressive NMD. These outcomes could potentially improve the (inter)national guidelines for efficacy of aerobic exercise programmes and provide insight in achieving a more active lifestyle in NMD.

683,32404169,"Prevention of acute radiation-induced Proctitis by Aloe vera: a prospective randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled clinical trial in Pelvic Cancer patients.","BACKGROUND
Acute radiation-induced proctitis (ARP) is the most common side effect following radiotherapy for malignant pelvic disease. This study evaluated the efficacy of Aloe vera ointment in prevention of ARP.
METHODS
Forty-two patients receiving external-beam radiotherapy (RT) for pelvic malignancies were randomized to receive either Aloe vera 3% or placebo topical ointment during radiotherapy for 6 weeks. These patients were evaluated based on the severity (grade 0-4) of the following symptoms weekly: rectal bleeding, abdominal/rectal pain, diarrhea, or fecal urgency. RTOG acute toxicity criteria and psychosocial status of the patients were also recorded weekly. Lifestyle impact of the symptoms, and quantitative measurement of C-reactive protein (CRP), an indicator of systemic inflammation, were also measured.
RESULTS
The results of present study demonstrated a significant preventive effect for Aloe vera in occurrence of symptom index for diarrhea (p < 0.001), rectal bleeding (p < 0.001), and fecal urgency (p = 0.001). The median lifestyle score improved significantly with Aloe vera during RT (p < 0.001). Intervention patients had a significant lower burden of systemic inflammation as the values for quantitative CRP decreased significantly over 6 weeks of follow-up (p = 0.009).
CONCLUSION
This study showed that Aloe vera topical ointment was effective in prevention of symptoms of ARP in patients undergoing RT for pelvic cancers.

684,32405121,Does moral reasoning influence public values for health care priority setting?: A population-based randomized stated preference survey.,"Objective
Preferences of members of the public are recognized as important inputs into health care priority-setting, though knowledge of such preferences is scant. We sought to generate evidence of public preferences related to healthcare resource allocation among adults and children.
Methods
We conducted an experimental stated preference survey in a national sample of Canadian adults. Preferences were elicited across a range of scenarios and scored on a visual analogue scale. Intervention group participants were randomized to a moral reasoning exercise prior to each choice task. The main outcomes were the differences in mean preference scores by group, scenario, and demographics.
Results
Our results demonstrate a consistent preference by participants to allocate scarce health system resources to children. Exposure to the moral reasoning exercise weakened but did not eliminate this preference. Younger respondent age and parenthood were associated with greater preference for children. The top principles guiding participants' allocative decisions were treat equally, relieve suffering, and rescue those at risk of dying.
Conclusions
Our study affirms the relevance of age in public preferences for the allocation of scarce health care resources, demonstrating a significant preference by participants to allocate healthcare resources to children. However, this preference diminishes when challenged by exposure to a range of moral principles, revealing a strong public endorsement of equality of access. Definitions of value in healthcare based on clinical benefit and cost-effectiveness may exclude moral considerations that the public values, such as equality and humanitarianism, highlighting opportunities to enrich healthcare priority-setting through public engagement.",2020,"However, this preference diminishes when challenged by exposure to a range of moral principles, revealing a strong public endorsement of equality of access.","['experimental stated preference survey in a national sample of Canadian adults', 'adults and children']","['moral reasoning exercise', 'moral reasoning exercise prior to each choice task']","['mean preference scores by group, scenario, and demographics']","[{'cui': 'C1301808', 'cui_str': 'State'}, {'cui': 'C0558295', 'cui_str': 'Preferences'}, {'cui': 'C0038951', 'cui_str': 'Surveys'}, {'cui': 'C0015737', 'cui_str': 'National Government'}, {'cui': 'C0370003', 'cui_str': 'Specimen'}, {'cui': 'C0238884', 'cui_str': 'Canadian'}, {'cui': 'C0001675', 'cui_str': 'Adult'}, {'cui': 'C0008059', 'cui_str': 'Child'}]","[{'cui': 'C0026531', 'cui_str': 'Morality'}, {'cui': 'C0684328', 'cui_str': 'Reasoning'}, {'cui': 'C0015259', 'cui_str': 'Exercise'}, {'cui': 'C0332152', 'cui_str': 'Before'}, {'cui': 'C0008300', 'cui_str': 'Choice Behavior'}]","[{'cui': 'C0444504', 'cui_str': 'Mean'}, {'cui': 'C0558295', 'cui_str': 'Preferences'}, {'cui': 'C0449820', 'cui_str': 'Score'}, {'cui': 'C0439745', 'cui_str': 'Grouped'}, {'cui': 'C0011298', 'cui_str': 'Demographics'}]",,0.0701692,"However, this preference diminishes when challenged by exposure to a range of moral principles, revealing a strong public endorsement of equality of access.","[{'ForeName': 'Avram E', 'Initials': 'AE', 'LastName': 'Denburg', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Paediatrics, The Hospital for Sick Children, University of Toronto, Toronto, M5G 1X8, Canada.'}, {'ForeName': 'Wendy J', 'Initials': 'WJ', 'LastName': 'Ungar', 'Affiliation': 'Institute of Health Policy, Management, and Evaluation, University of Toronto, Toronto, M5T 3M6, Canada.'}, {'ForeName': 'Shiyi', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Chen', 'Affiliation': 'Biostatistician, Biostatistics, Design and Analysis, Peter Gilgan Centre for Research and Learning, The Hospital for Sick Children, Toronto, M5G 1X8, Canada.'}, {'ForeName': 'Jeremiah', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Hurley', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Economics, McMaster University, Hamilton, L8S 4L8, Canada.'}, {'ForeName': 'Julia', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Abelson', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Health Research Methods, Evidence and Impact, McMaster University, Hamilton, L8S 4L8, Canada.'}]","Health policy (Amsterdam, Netherlands)",['10.1016/j.healthpol.2020.04.007']
685,32405176,Role of Granulocyte Colony Stimulating Factor on the Short-Term Outcome of Children with Acute on Chronic Liver Failure.,"Background
Acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF) results in very high mortality in children. We aimed to evaluate the role of granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (GCSF) on short-term outcome of children with ACLF in a nontransplant unit.
Methods
Children (aged > 1 year) diagnosed with ACLF over a 15 month period were randomised. Group A was given GCSF therapy along with standard medical care (SMC - details in supplementary data) and group B was given only SMC. The outcome was evaluated as survival at 30 and 60 days of therapy.
Result
Thirty-one children with ACLF were enrolled, with a mean age of 6.92 ± 4.3yrs. A total of 15 patients were randomised to group A and 16 to group B. The overall mortality was 54.83%. The intervention group showed survival rates of 80%, 66.67% and 53.3%, whereas the control group had survival rates of 43.75%, 37.5% and 37.5% at 14, 30 and 60 days, respectively. A significant survival benefit was noted on day 14 (p = 0.043) of therapy in group A with significant difference in Child-Turcotte-Pugh (CTP) and pediatric end-stage liver disease (PELD) scores in the two groups. After an initial rise in group A, the granulocyte counts fell to become comparable in the two groups by day 30 and 60, indicating that the effect of GCSF therapy wears off over time. There was no significant difference in the overall survival, median/mean CTP, PELD and MCS (Modified Cliff sequential organ failure assesment (SOFA)) scores on day 30 and 60. Mean (%) CD 34 + cells level showed a rise on day 7 in group A but was statistically insignificant.
Conclusion
The present study shows that GCSF therapy at 5 mcg/kg/day for 5 days seems to be ineffective in improving the survival outcome on day 30 and 60 of therapy.

687,32405431,Phosphorus supplementation raised the heart rate of male water polo players during a randomised graded dryland exercise test.,"Objective
The impact of phosphorus supplementation on athletic performance is unclear. Ingestion of phosphorus for several days has been reported to increase cardiac capacity, improve oxygen muscle kinetics and enhance lactate buffering capacity. Recent studies have shown that phosphorus ingestion with a meal increases postprandial glucose uptake and thermogenesis. The present study aimed to assess the effect of acute phosphorus ingestion with a meal on specific workload parameters.
Methods
A double-blind, crossover trial of 12 male water polo players between 18 and 22 years old was conducted. Overnight fasted subjects were asked to cycle for 20 min before ingesting 100 g of glucose with phosphorus or placebo (400 mg). Three hours later, they were asked to perform a graded cycling exercise for 25 min.
Results
Expenditure, respiratory quotient, perception of fatigue and exercise efficiency were similar between treatments. However, heart rate was significantly higher in the phosphorus group (142±10 beats/min) compared with placebo (135±10 beats/min).
Conclusion
Exercise performance 3 hours after the coingestion of glucose with phosphorus did not affect substrate use, while heart rate was increased. The heart rate increase could be attributed to a rise in core body temperature.

688,32405474,Listening to music during arteriovenous fistula surgery alleviates anxiety: A randomized single-blind clinical trial.,"BACKGROUND
Both end-stage renal disease and being wait-listed for a kidney transplant are anxiety-causing situations. Wait-listed patients usually require arteriovenous fistula surgery for dialysis access. This procedure is performed under local anesthesia. We investigated the effects of music on the anxiety, perceived pain and satisfaction levels of patients who underwent fistula surgery.
AIM
To investigate the effect of music therapy on anxiety levels and perceived pain of patients undergoing fistula surgery.
METHODS
Patients who were on a waiting list for kidney transplants and scheduled for fistula surgery were randomized to control and music groups. The music group patients listened to music throughout the fistula surgery. The State-Trait Anxiety Inventory was performed to assess anxiety, additionally visual analog scale was used to evaluate perceived pain, willingness to repeat the procedure and patient satisfaction. Demographic features, comorbidities, surgical history, basic surgical data (location of fistula creation, duration of surgery, incision length) and intra-operative hemodynamic parameters were recorded by an investigator blinded to the study group. An additional trait anxiety assessment was performed following the surgery.
RESULTS
There was a total of 55 patients included in the study. However, 14 patients did not fulfill the criteria due to requirement of sedation during surgery or uncompleted questionnaires. The remaining 41 patients were included in the analysis. There were 26 males and 15 females. The control and music groups consisted of 20 and 21 patients, respectively. With regard to basic surgical and demographic data, there was no difference between the groups. Overall patient satisfaction was significantly higher and intra-operative heart rate and blood pressure were significantly lower in the music group ( P < 0.05). Postoperative state anxiety levels were significantly lower in the music group.

689,31701308,Comparison of single minimum dose administration of dexmedetomidine and midazolam for prevention of emergence delirium in children: a randomized controlled trial.,"PURPOSE
Emergence delirium (ED) is common in children after sevoflurane anesthesia and should be prevented for patient safety. A prospective, double-blind, randomized, controlled study was performed to compare the efficacy of minimal dosage of midazolam versus dexmedetomidine to prevent ED in children undergoing tonsillectomy.
METHODS
Seventy children aged 24 months to 12 years were allocated to receive midazolam (0.03 mg/kg) or dexmedetomidine (0.3 µg/kg) 5 min before the end of surgery. The incidence and severity of ED were assessed using a four-point scale and the pediatric anesthesia emergence delirium scale, respectively. The emergence time and postoperative pain scores were also evaluated.
RESULTS
The incidence of ED was 31.3% in the midazolam group and 26.5% in the dexmedetomidine group (P = 0.668). The severity of ED was similar in both groups (9.6 ± 5.8 in the midazolam group, vs. 8.1 ± 5.9 in the dexmedetomidine group, P = 0.299). The emergence time was comparable in the two groups [11.0 (8.3-13.8) min in midazolam group vs. 12.0 (10.0-13.5) min in dexmedetomidine group (P = 0.218)]. Postoperative pain score was higher in the midazolam group [0 (0-1)] than in the dexmedetomidine group [0 (0-0)] (P = 0.011).
CONCLUSION
Dexmedetomidine and midazolam at single minimum dosages had equal effectiveness to prevent ED in children without delaying emergence time, when administered at the end of surgery.

690,31030379,The effect of a single irradiation of low-level laser on nipple pain in breastfeeding women: a randomized controlled trial.,"Photobiomodulation with low-level laser therapy (PBM-LLLT) has been introduced as a new tool to relieve nipple pain and repair nipple damage in breastfeeding women; however, evidence is needed to assess its effectiveness. The aim was to evaluate the effect of a single application of PBM-LLLT for breastfeeding women with nipple pain and damage; side effects were also collected. We conducted a randomized double-blinded controlled trial with women with nipple damage who were exclusively breastfeeding and rooming-in at Amparo Maternal maternity service, São Paulo, Brazil (May 2016 to May 2017). Women were randomly assigned into laser (n = 40) or control group (n = 40). Intervention was a single irradiation (660 nm, 100 mW, 2 J, 66.66 J/cm 2 , 3.3 W/cm 2 , 20 s of irradiation, punctual, and continuous mode) applied directly. Women reported pain levels at recruitment (before and immediately after irradiation), 6 and 24 h after the treatment. Pain level during a breastfeed was assessed using the Visual Analogue Scale (0 to 10). The primary outcome was the level of nipple pain immediately after the laser irradiation. Data were analyzed using hierarchical model and Wald test. At baseline, pain levels were similar (mean of 7.4 in laser group and 7.1 in control group). Women's perception of pain reduced approximately one point in both groups. Thirty-one percent of participants in the laser group (11/36) reported secondary effects, such as tingling (10/36) and pricking (2/36). The laser protocol of a single application was not effective in reducing pain in women with damaged nipples.

691,32401286,Effect of Internet vs Face-to-Face Cognitive Behavior Therapy for Health Anxiety: A Randomized Noninferiority Clinical Trial.,"Importance
Health anxiety is a common and often chronic mental health problem associated with distress, substantial costs, and frequent attendance throughout the health care system. Face-to-face cognitive behavior therapy (CBT) is the criterion standard treatment, but access is limited.
Objective
To test the hypothesis that internet-delivered CBT, which requires relatively little resources, is noninferior to face-to-face CBT in the treatment of health anxiety.
Design, Setting, and Participants
This randomized noninferiority clinical trial with health economic analysis was based at a primary care clinic and included patients with a principal diagnosis of health anxiety who were self-referred or referred from routine care. Recruitment began in December 10, 2014, and the last treatment ended on July 23, 2017. Follow-up data were collected up to 12 months after treatment. Analysis began October 2017 and ended March 2020.
Interventions
Patients were randomized (1:1) to 12 weeks of internet-delivered CBT or to individual face-to-face CBT.
Main Outcomes and Measures
Change in health anxiety symptoms from baseline to week 12. Analyses were conducted from intention-to-treat and per-protocol (completers only) perspectives, using the noninferiority margin of 2.25 points on the Health Anxiety Inventory, which has a theoretical range of 0 to 54.
Results
Overall, 204 patients (mean [SD] age, 39 [12] years; 143 women [70%]) contributed with 2386 data points on the Health Anxiety Inventory over the treatment period. Of 204 patients, 102 (50%) were randomized to internet-delivered CBT, and 102 (50%) were randomized to face-to-face CBT. The 1-sided 95% CI upper limits for the internet-delivered CBT vs face-to-face CBT difference in change were within the noninferiority margin in the intention-to-treat analysis (B = 0.00; upper limit: 1.98; Cohen d = 0.00; upper limit: 0.23) and per-protocol analysis (B = 0.01; upper limit: 2.17; Cohen d = 0.00; upper limit: 0.25). The between-group effect was not moderated by initial symptom level, recruitment path, or patient treatment preference. Therapists spent 10.0 minutes per patient per week in the online treatment vs 45.6 minutes for face-to-face CBT. The net societal cost was lower in the online treatment (treatment period point difference: $3854). There was no significant group difference in the number of adverse events, and no serious adverse event was reported.
Conclusions and Relevance
In this trial, internet-delivered CBT appeared to be noninferior to face-to-face CBT for health anxiety, while incurring lower net societal costs. The online treatment format has potential to increase access to evidence-based treatment for health anxiety.

692,32402773,The Effect of Cold Vapor and Ice Cube Absorption in the Early Postoperative Period on Sore Throat and Hoarseness Induced by Intubation.,"PURPOSE
This study aimed to determine the effect of cold vapor and ice cube absorption in the early postoperative period on sore throat and hoarseness induced by intubation.
DESIGN
This is a randomized controlled experimental study.
METHODS
Four groups (n = 30) were involved in the study: cold vapor application (group 1), ice cube absorption (group 2), ice cube absorption along with cold vapor application (group 3), and a control group (group 4). The sample consisted of 120 participants. The data were collected using the visual analog scale (VAS) and Stout's hoarseness scale postextubation (zeroth hour) and at the second, sixth, and 24th hours.
FINDINGS
After the interventions, the mean VAS scores for sore throat at the sixth postoperative hour were found to be 1.50 ± 1.71, 1.16 ± 1.08, and 1.30 ± 1.62 in group 1, group 2, and group 3, respectively. The mean VAS score for sore throat of group 4 was found to be 3.70 ± 1.89. The decrease in the VAS score for the sixth postoperative hour was ranked from highest to lowest as follows: ice cube absorption group, ice cube absorption along with cold vapor application group, and cold vapor application group. There was no significant difference between application groups in terms of mean VAS scores; however, it was found that mean VAS scores of all application groups were lower than that of control group, and there was a significant difference between them (P < .05). We found that at the sixth postoperative hour after intervention, 33.3% of group 1, 36.7% of group 2, 30% of group 3, and 46.7% of group 4 had hoarseness. No significant difference was found between groups, in terms of hoarseness scores of patients in the sixth postoperative hour after intervention (P > .05).

693,32402832,Transrectal Natural Orifice Specimen Extraction (NOSE) With Oncological Safety: A Prospective and Randomized Trial.,"BACKGROUND
In the present paper, we introduce our experience with the novel method during laparoscopic anterior resection of upper rectal or sigmoid colon cancer by transrectal natural orifice specimen extraction (NOSE).
METHODS
A prospective randomized controlled trial was performed from June 2016 to May 2019. Patients with upper rectal or sigmoid colon cancer were randomized in a 1:1 ratio to the NOSE group and the non-NOSE group. Preoperative and postoperative clinical variables were analyzed and compared between groups. Postoperative pain was analyzed utilizing a visual analog scale. Postoperative overall survival was analyzed using a Kaplan-Meier curve.
RESULTS
A total of 276 patients were enrolled, of whom 254 were randomly divided into the NOSE group (n = 122) and the conventional laparoscopic group (n = 119). NOSE failed in 22 cases, which were converted to transabdominal specimen extraction. Intention-to-treat analysis was performed, and these 22 cases were included in the NOSE group. The incidence of postoperative complications was significantly lower in the NOSE group (11/122, 9%) than in the non-NOSE group (25/119, 21%). The NOSE group had a longer operation time, less blood loss, and a lower postoperative visual analog scale score than the non-NOSE group. The time for intestinal function recovery (ventilation) and the length of hospital stay were significantly longer in the non-NOSE group. The Kaplan-Meier survival curve showed no statistically significant difference in the disease-free survival rate between the NOSE group and the non-NOSE group.
CONCLUSIONS
The novel NOSE method is safe and feasible to use in patients having colorectal cancer. Compared with traditional laparoscopic surgery, the postoperative complication rates of NOSE surgery were lower with an improved short-term clinical recovery.",2020,"The Kaplan-Meier survival curve showed no statistically significant difference in the disease-free survival rate between the NOSE group and the non-NOSE group.

694,32402931,Long-term outcome of perioperative low cardiac output syndrome in cardiac surgery: 1-year results of a multicenter randomized trial.,"PURPOSE
Perioperative myocardial dysfunction occurs frequently in cardiac surgery, and is a risk factor for morbidity and mortality. Levosimendan has been suggested to reduce mortality of patients with perioperative myocardial dysfunction. However, long-term outcome data on its efficacy in cardiac surgery are lacking.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
Cardiac surgery patients with perioperative myocardial dysfunction were randomized to levosimendan or placebo, in addition to standard inotropic care. One-year mortality data were collected.
RESULTS
We randomized 506 patients (248 to levosimendan 258 to placebo). At 1-year follow-up, 41 patients (16.5%) died in the levosimendan group, while 47 (18.3%) died in the placebo group (absolute risk difference -1.8; 95% CI -8.4 to 4.9; P = .60). Female sex, history of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, previous myocardial infarction, serum creatinine, hematocrit, mean arterial pressure, and duration of cardiopulmonary bypass were independently associated with 1-year mortality.
CONCLUSIONS
Levosimendan administration does not improve 1-year survival in cardiac surgery patients with perioperative myocardial dysfunction. One-year mortality in these patients is 17%. Six predictive factors for long-term mortality were identified.

695,32402953,The effect of swimming program on body composition levels in adolescents with Down syndrome.,"BACKGROUND
Down syndrome has been associated with more than 80 clinical characteristics such as diabetes, cardiovascular problems or obesity.
AIMS
The current study determined the effect of a 36 weeks swimming program on different indicators of body composition in adolescents with Down syndrome.
METHODS AND PROCEDURES OUTCOMES
45 adolescents with Down syndrome were recruited and randomized to two groups (control group vs. exercise group). Adolescents allocated in the control group carried out a recreational swimming program twice a week during 36 weeks meanwhile adolescents allocated in the exercise group did exercise three time a week during 36 weeks. BMI, Waist circumference, waist-to-height ratio, triceps, subscapular, suprailiac and thigh skinfold were measured.
RESULTS
ANCOVA tests were used to evaluate differences between groups in post-test intervention. Repeated measures of ANOVA were performed in order to assess differences in pre-test intervention in each group. t test were carried out to compare the pre-post-intervention differences in physical characteristics and body composition within each group. The exercise group had significant improvements in all variables of body composition (p < 0.05) except in subscapular and thigh skinfold.
CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS
The results suggest that a 36 weeks swimming program consisting of 3 sessions of 50 minutes is able to decrease levels of body composition in a sample of adolescents with Down syndrome. The findings indicate that it would be important to generate high intensity sports programs in sports associations in order to obtain positive impact on body composition levels within this population.",2020,"The exercise group had significant improvements in all variables of body composition (p < 0.05) except in subscapular and thigh skinfold.

696,32404116,Effects of active localization and vascular preservation of inferior parathyroid glands in central neck dissection for papillary thyroid carcinoma.,"BACKGROUND
The purpose of present study is to assess the effects of active localization and vascular preservation of inferior parathyroid glands in central neck dissection (CND) for papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC).
METHODS
A classification of IPGs according to their location and vascular features was developed, and, based on this classification, a CND procedure was designed, and IPGs and their vascular were actively localized and strategically preserved. A total of 197 patients with PTC who underwent a total thyroidectomy and concomitant CND were enrolled. Eighty-nine patients with traditional meticulous fascia dissection were allocated to group A, and 108 patients with active location and vascular preservation of IPGs were allocated to group B. Those with inferior parathyroid glands auto-transplantation in each group were assigned as group At (18) and group Bt (12). Variables including serum intact parathyroid hormone (PTH), total calcium, the incidence of transient, and permanent hypoparathyroidism were studied.
RESULTS
Compared with group A, serum intact PTH (P < 0.001) and total calcium levels (P < 0.05) in group B significantly improved on the first postoperative day, and the incidence of transient hypoparathyroidism significantly dropped in group B (P < 0.001). A total of 170 patients in the two groups had complete follow-up data. The incidence of permanent hypoparathyroidism significantly decreased in group B, from 8.8% to 1.0% (P = 0.017).

697,32404117,Effects of prostaglandin E 1 nebulization of ventilated lung under 60%O 2 one lung ventilation on patients' oxygenation and oxidative stress: a randomised controlled trial.,"BACKGROUND
High FiO 2 during one-lung ventilation (OLV) can improve oxygenation, but increase the risk of atelectasis and oxidative stress. The aim of this study was to analyze whether Prostaglandin E 1 (PGE 1 ) can improve oxygenation and attenuate oxidative stress during OLV under a lower FiO 2 .
METHOD
Ninety patients selectively undergoing thoracotomy for esophageal cancer were randomly divided into three groups (n = 30/group): Group P (FiO 2 = 0.6, inhaling PGE 1 0.1 μg/kg), Group L (FiO 2 = 0.6) and Group C (FiO 2 = 1.0). The primary outcomes were oxygenation and pulmonary shunt during OLV. Secondary outcomes included haemodynamics, respiratory mechanics and oxidative stress in serum.
RESULTS
Patients in Group P had significantly higher PaO 2 and lower shunt fraction in 30 min of OLV compared with Group L. Compared with Group C, patients in Group P had similar levels of PaO 2 /FiO 2 in 60 min and higher levels of PaO 2 /FiO 2 at 2 h during OLV. The levels of PvO 2 and SvO 2 in Group P and Group L were significantly lower than Group C. Patients in Group P and Group L had significantly higher levels of superoxide dismutase and lower levels of malondialdehyde than Group C. No significant differences were found in SPO 2 , ETCO 2 , PaCO 2 , Paw, HR and MAP among the three groups. The complications in Group C were significantly higher than another two groups.
CONCLUSION
PGE 1 can maintain adequate oxygenation in patients with low FiO 2 (0.6) during OLV. Reducing FiO 2 to 0.6 during OLV can decrease the levels of oxidative stress and complications after OLV.

699,32404723,The Effect of Self-Care Program Based on Modeling and Role Modeling Theory on Body Image Nurturance in Patients With Colorectal Cancer: A Randomized Clinical Trial.,"One of the most critical disorders among patients with colorectal cancer is a change in their body image. This study aimed to examine the effect of a self-care program based on the modeling and role-modeling theory on nurturing body image of patients with colorectal cancer. In 2018, a 2-group randomized clinical trial was conducted in Mashhad, Iran. According to the modeling and role-modeling theory, 27 patients allocated in the experimental group received five 30- to 45-minute sessions at the hospital and 4 sessions of phone counseling within 2 weeks. Twenty-seven patients randomly allocated in the control group received the routine care. Data were collected by demographic and body image scales 3 times with the patients. The mean age of the patients in experimental and control groups was not significantly different (P = .46). The mean scores of the body image at the admission time were 26.8 ± 2.6 in the experimental and 27.9 ± 3.1 in control groups (P = .12). However, the mean scores of body image of the experimental group were 24.3 ± 4.6 at the discharge time and 28.1 ± 2.1 during the follow-up phase. In the control group, the body image scores were 21.0 ± 5.6 at discharge time and 22.9 ± 6.1 during the follow-up phase.

700,32404725,Effects of the Continuous Care Model on the Health-Promoting Lifestyle in Breast Cancer Survivors: A Randomized Clinical Trial.,"Breast cancer is the most frequently diagnosed cancer and the chief cause of cancer-related death among women worldwide, with the incidence increasing exponentially particularly in low- to middle-income countries. The increase in the incidence of breast cancer is partly accounted for by increases in life expectancy due to improvements in public health, but also related to an increase in risk factors for cancer including smoking, excess body weight, decreased physical activity, and changes in reproductive activity. Health-promoting lifestyle is therefore one of the major topics of importance in studying chronic illnesses and cancer. Health promotion interventions, including the use of care models, have a vast contribution to make in terms of timely diagnosis and improved survival. One such care model, which has been designed to increase self-care, adherence, and performance in chronic patients, is the continuous care model (CCM). This study was conducted with the purpose of determining the influence of the CCM on the health-promoting lifestyle of patients with breast cancer during 2017-2018. In this randomized clinical trial, 60 patients with breast cancer were chosen by convenience sampling followed by random allocation into treatment and control groups. Six sessions of group discussion were held for the treatment group according to the CCM and items in the health-promoting lifestyle questionnaire. Data collection tools included a general health questionnaire, a demographic questionnaire, a family support questionnaire, and the Health Promoting Lifestyle Profile (HPLP), which respondents completed before and after the intervention. P values ≤ .05 were considered significant. When comparing the mean score of health-promoting lifestyle in both the control and treatment groups, before and after the intervention, significant increases in every dimension were observed. The average overall health promotion lifestyle was revealed to be significantly elevated from 123.48 to 147.12. However, in the control group the mean scores had slightly increased or were the same in all the dimensions. In addition, the average overall health promotion lifestyle had increased from 119.89 to 121.32. The observed difference in mean scores was not statistically significant. The CCM increased the score of health-promoting lifestyle of patients with breast cancer. Therefore, this caring model can be considered an alternative to improve healthy lifestyles of patients with cancer.",2020,"The increase in the incidence of breast cancer is partly accounted for by increases in life expectancy due to improvements in public health, but also related to an increase in risk factors for cancer including smoking, excess body weight, decreased physical activity, and changes in reproductive activity.","['patients with breast cancer during 2017-2018', 'patients with cancer', 'Breast Cancer Survivors', '60 patients with breast cancer', 'patients with breast cancer']","['Continuous Care Model', 'CCM']","['mean scores', 'score of health-promoting lifestyle', 'average overall health promotion lifestyle', 'every dimension', 'mean score of health-promoting lifestyle']","[{'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patient'}, {'cui': 'C0006142', 'cui_str': 'Malignant tumor of breast'}, {'cui': 'C0006826', 'cui_str': 'Malignant neoplastic disease'}, {'cui': 'C0206194', 'cui_str': 'Survivors'}]","[{'cui': 'C0549178', 'cui_str': 'Continuous'}, {'cui': 'C0026339', 'cui_str': 'Biological Models'}, {'cui': 'C0065772', 'cui_str': 'MCC protocol'}]","[{'cui': 'C0444504', 'cui_str': 'Mean'}, {'cui': 'C0449820', 'cui_str': 'Score'}, {'cui': 'C0018684', 'cui_str': 'Health'}, {'cui': 'C0033414', 'cui_str': 'Promotion'}, {'cui': 'C0023676', 'cui_str': 'Life style'}, {'cui': 'C0282416', 'cui_str': 'Overall'}, {'cui': 'C0018738', 'cui_str': 'Health promotion'}, {'cui': 'C0439534', 'cui_str': 'Dimensions'}]",60.0,0.0150827,"The increase in the incidence of breast cancer is partly accounted for by increases in life expectancy due to improvements in public health, but also related to an increase in risk factors for cancer including smoking, excess body weight, decreased physical activity, and changes in reproductive activity.","[{'ForeName': 'Fatemeh', 'Initials': 'F', 'LastName': 'Moghaddam Tabrizi', 'Affiliation': 'Nursing and Midwifery School, Reproductive Health Research Center, Urmia University of Medical Sciences, Urmia, Iran (Dr Moghaddam Tabrizi) and Nursing and Midwifery School, Urmia University of Medical Sciences, Urmia, Iran (Ms Rajabzadeh and Dr Eghtedar).'}, {'ForeName': 'Hanieh', 'Initials': 'H', 'LastName': 'Rajabzadeh', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Samereh', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Eghtedar', 'Affiliation': ''}]",Holistic nursing practice,['10.1097/HNP.0000000000000392']
701,32404742,Bovine Lactoferrin Supplementation does not Disrupt Microbiota Development in Preterm Infants Receiving Probiotics.,"OBJECTIVE
To assess whether bovine lactoferrin supplementation disrupts intestinal microbiota development in preterm infants less than 31 weeks gestational age receiving prophylactic probiotic administration.
METHODS
Subjects were recruited from the LACUNA trial (ISRCTN66482337), designed to assess bovine lactoferrin safety. These subjects were randomized to daily receive either probiotic supplements or probiotics supplemented with 100 mg bovine lactoferrin mixed with their feeds (human milk or formula). Stools were collected weekly from enrolled infants for one month and the microbiota characterized using V6-16S rRNA gene amplicon profiling.
RESULTS
Infants microbiomes did not increase in alpha diversity over time in both feeding interventions. Infants receiving bovine lactoferrin supplementation had overall higher species richness as compared to those not receiving these supplements and lactoferrin supplementation had differing effects on infant microbiota species richness depending on the infant's gestational age. Principal co-ordinate analysis revealed that the infant microbiotas did not separate by intervention group, gestational age bracket at birth or sampling time and the main factor dictating sample clustering was infant identity. There were very few detectable differences in taxa relative abundance or functional gene content between the microbiotas in the two study groups.
CONCLUSIONS
Bovine lactoferrin supplementation has minimal impact on microbiota composition/function in preterm infants receiving probiotics and therefore is unlikely to disrupt microbiota development.",2020,"There were very few detectable differences in taxa relative abundance or functional gene content between the microbiotas in the two study groups.

702,32404782,"Immunogenicity and Safety of an MF59-adjuvanted Quadrivalent Seasonal Influenza Vaccine in Young Children at High Risk of Influenza-associated Complications: A Phase III, Randomized, Observer-blind, Multicenter Clinical Trial.","BACKGROUND
Vaccination against seasonal influenza is recommended for all children with a history of medical conditions placing them at increased risk of influenza-associated complications. The immunogenicity and efficacy of conventional influenza vaccines among young children are suboptimal; one strategy to enhance these is adjuvantation. We present immunogenicity and safety data for an MF59-adjuvanted quadrivalent influenza vaccine (aIIV4) in healthy children and those at a high risk of influenza-associated complications, based on the results of a recently completed phase III study.
METHODS
Children 6 months to 5 years of age (N = 10,644) were enrolled. The study was conducted across northern hemisphere seasons 2013-2014 and 2014-2015. Subjects received either aIIV4 or a nonadjuvanted comparator influenza vaccine. Antibody responses were assessed by hemagglutination inhibition assay against vaccine and heterologous strains. Long-term antibody persistence was assessed (ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT01964989).
RESULTS
aIIV4 induced significantly higher antibody titers than nonadjuvanted vaccine in high-risk subjects. aIIV4 antibody responses were of similar magnitude in high-risk and healthy subjects. Incidence of solicited local and systemic adverse events (AEs) was slightly higher in aIIV4 than nonadjuvanted vaccinees, in both the healthy and high-risk groups. Incidence of unsolicited AEs, serious AEs and AEs of special interest were similar for adjuvanted and nonadjuvanted vaccinees in the healthy and high-risk groups.
CONCLUSION
aIIV4 was more immunogenic than nonadjuvanted vaccine in both the healthy and high-risk study groups. The reactogenicity and safety profiles of aIIV4 and the nonadjuvanted vaccine were acceptable and similar in 6-month- to 5-year-old high-risk and healthy children.",2020,"Incidence of unsolicited AEs, serious AEs and AEs of special interest were similar for adjuvanted and nonadjuvanted vaccinees in the healthy and high-risk groups.

703,32406162,Efficacy of microneedling plus topical 4% tranexamic acid solution vs 4% hydroquinone in the treatment of melasma: A single-blind randomized clinical trial.,"BACKGROUND
There are various treatment modalities for melasma, but none of them are effective on dermal component of melasma.
AIMS
In this study, we decided to evaluate the efficacy of microneedling plus tranexamic acid in comparison with 4% hydroquinone in the treatment of melasma.
METHODS
This is a single-blind randomized clinical trial on 70 participants with 14% dropout, and therefore, 60 patients with melasma completed the study. Patients were randomized based on simple randomization in 2 groups of A (microneedling plus topical 4% tranexamic acid, monthly) and B (topical 4% hydroquinone, nightly). Evaluation of mean MASI score, patient and physician assessments was performed at 4th, 8th and12th weeks of the treatment. Statistical analysis was performed by paired t test, chi-square test and Fisher's exact test, respectively.
RESULTS
Sixty women (30 patients in each group) were completed the study. Mean MASI score in group A was significantly lower at the end of the treatment (6.84 ± 4.31) than at the baseline (12.89 ± 5.16) (P < .01). Mean MASI score in group B was significantly lower at the end of the treatment (7.16 ± 4.38) than at the baseline (13.56 ± 4.88) (P < .01). There was no statistical difference between 2 groups regarding MASI score, physician and patient assessments during the treatment. Percentage of patient satisfaction was significantly higher than physician satisfaction in both treatment groups (P < .01).

704,32406808,Wheelchair backs that support the spinal curves: Assessing postural and functional changes.,"Objective: To compare outcomes using a wheelchair back designed to support the natural seated spinal curves versus an upholstered back that promotes posterior pelvic tilt and thoracolumbar kyphosis. Design: Cross-over intervention. Setting: Two free-standing spinal cord injury (SCI) model system hospitals. Participants: Fifty adults with motor complete SCI C6-T4, between the ages of 18-60 years who use a manual wheelchair for mobility were recruited from a convenience sample. Intervention: Each participant's wheelchair back support was removed and replaced by an upholstered back and a solid back in randomized order. Postural and functional outcomes, pain, and satisfaction were evaluated using each back. Outcome measures: Seated postural measurements included pelvic angle, spinal angle of kyphosis and linear measurement of spine. Functional outcomes included vertical forward reach, one stroke push, timed forward wheeling, ramp ascent and descent. Numerical pain rating and a satisfaction survey provided input pertaining to both backs. Results: The solid back demonstrated significance in seated postural measurements. Participants using the solid back trended to higher scores in functional outcome measures including vertical forward reach, one stroke push and timed ramp ascent. Participants reported increased satisfaction with comfort and stability with the solid back. Conclusions: This pilot study demonstrated that a wheelchair back, which supports the seated spinal curves improves upright posture, functional reach, and wheelchair propulsion skills.

705,32406858,Web-Based Self-Management for Patients With Lymphoma: Assessment of the Reach of Intervention of a Randomized Controlled Trial.,"BACKGROUND
Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) often provide accurate estimates of the internal validity of an intervention but lack information on external validity (generalizability). We conducted an RCT on the effectiveness of a self-management intervention among patients with lymphoma in a population-based setting.
OBJECTIVE
The objectives of the current study were to describe the proportion of RCT participants compared to all patients invited to participate, and compare sociodemographic and clinical characteristics of RCT participants with all respondents, all patients invited to participate, and all patients selected from the Netherlands Cancer Registry (NCR) to determine the reach of the intervention. An additional objective was to assess differences on RCT outcome variables between RCT and paper respondents.
METHODS
Patients with lymphoma or chronic lymphocytic leukemia ≥18 years old at diagnosis from 13 hospitals in the Netherlands were selected from the population-based NCR, which routinely collects data on sociodemographic and clinical characteristics. Eligible patients were invited to participate in an RCT and complete a questionnaire. Web-based completion determined RCT enrollment, whereas paper respondents were followed observationally.
RESULTS
A total of 1193 patients were selected from the NCR, 892 (74.77%) of whom were invited to participate in the trial by their hematologist after verifying eligibility. Among those invited, 25.4% (227/892) completed the web-based questionnaire and were enrolled in the RCT. The RCT participants were younger and there was a higher proportion of men than nonparticipants (P<.001). In addition, 25.7% (229/892) of those invited opted to participate in the paper-based observational follow-up study. Compared with paper respondents, RCT participants were younger (P<.001), with a higher proportion of men (P=.002), and had higher education levels (P=.02). RCT participants more often wanted to receive all available information on their disease (P<.001), whereas paper respondents reported higher levels of emotional distress (P=.009).
CONCLUSIONS
From a population-based sample of eligible patients, the participation rate in the RCT was approximately 25%. RCT participants may not be representative of the target population because of different sociodemographic and clinical characteristics. Since RCT participants represent a minority of the target population, RCT results should be interpreted with caution as patients in the RCT may be those least in need of a self-management intervention.

706,32406864,"Gratitude at Work: Prospective Cohort Study of a Web-Based, Single-Exposure Well-Being Intervention for Health Care Workers.","BACKGROUND
Emotional exhaustion (EE) in health care workers is common and consequentially linked to lower quality of care. Effective interventions to address EE are urgently needed.
OBJECTIVE
This randomized single-exposure trial examined the efficacy of a gratitude letter-writing intervention for improving health care workers' well-being.
METHODS
A total of 1575 health care workers were randomly assigned to one of two gratitude letter-writing prompts (self- vs other focused) to assess differential efficacy. Assessments of EE, subjective happiness, work-life balance, and tool engagement were collected at baseline and 1-week post intervention. Participants received their EE score at baseline and quartile benchmarking scores. Paired-samples t tests, independent t tests, and correlations explored the efficacy of the intervention. Linguistic Inquiry and Word Count software assessed the linguistic content of the gratitude letters and associations with well-being.
RESULTS
Participants in both conditions showed significant improvements in EE, happiness, and work-life balance between the intervention and 1-week follow-up (P<.001). The self-focused (vs other) instruction conditions did not differentially predict improvement in any of the measures (P=.91). Tool engagement was high, and participants reporting higher motivation to improve their EE had higher EE at baseline (P<.001) and were more likely to improve EE a week later (P=.03). Linguistic analyses revealed that participants high on EE at baseline used more negative emotion words in their letters (P=.005). Reduction in EE at the 1-week follow-up was predicted at the level of a trend by using fewer first-person (P=.06) and positive emotion words (P=.09). No baseline differences were found between those who completed the follow-up assessment and those who did not (Ps>.05).
CONCLUSIONS
This single-exposure gratitude letter-writing intervention appears to be a promising low-cost, brief, and meaningful tool to improve the well-being of health care workers.",2020,"No baseline differences were found between those who completed the follow-up assessment and those who did not (Ps>.05).

707,32202318,Three-year observation of children 12 to 35 months old with untreated intermittent exotropia.,"PURPOSE
To describe the clinical course of untreated intermittent exotropia (IXT) in children 12-35 months of age followed for 3 years.
METHODS
We enrolled 97 children 12-35 months of age with previously untreated IXT who had been randomly assigned to the observation arm of a randomised trial of short-term occlusion versus observation. Participants were observed unless deterioration criteria were met at a follow-up visit occurring at 3 months, 6 months, and 6-month intervals thereafter for 3 years. The primary outcome was deterioration of the IXT by 3 years, defined as (1) a constant exotropia ≥10 prism dioptres (∆) at distance and near (i.e., motor deterioration) or (2) treatment prescribed despite not having met motor deterioration. The primary analysis used the Kaplan-Meier method to determine the cumulative proportion of participants meeting deterioration by three years and 95% confidence interval (CI).
RESULTS
The cumulative probability of deterioration by 3 years was 28% (95% CI = 20%-39%). Of the 24 participants meeting the primary outcome of deterioration, seven met motor deterioration and 17 were prescribed treatment without meeting motor deterioration. The cumulative probability of motor deterioration by 3 years was 10% (95% CI = 5%-19%).
CONCLUSIONS
Given the modest rate of motor deterioration over three years, watchful waiting may be a reasonable management approach in 12- to 35-month-old children with IXT. To confirm this recommendation would require a long-term randomised trial of immediate treatment versus observation followed by deferred treatment if needed.",2020,"The cumulative probability of motor deterioration by 3 years was 10% (95% CI = 5%-19%).

708,32402585,Body weight of individuals with obesity decreases after a 6-month high pasta or low pasta Mediterranean diet weight-loss intervention.,"BACKGROUND & AIMS
The effect of pasta consumption within a low-energy Mediterranean diet on body weight regulation has been scarcely explored. This paper investigates the effect of two Mediterranean diets, which differed for lower or higher pasta intake, on body weight change in individuals with obesity.
METHODS & RESULTS
Forty-nine volunteers finished a quasi-experimental 6-month two-parallel group dietary intervention. Participants were assigned to a low-energy high pasta (HP) or to a low-energy low Pasta (LP) group on the basis of their pasta intake (HP ≥ 5 or LP ≤ 3 times/week). Anthropometrics, blood pressure and heart rate were measured every month. Weight maintenance was checked at month 12. Body composition (bioelectrical impedance analysis, BIA), food intake (24-h recall plus a 7-day carbohydrate record) and the perceived quality of life (36-item short-form health survey, SF-36) were assessed at baseline, 3 and 6 months. Blood samples were collected at baseline and month 6 to assess glucose and lipid metabolism. After 6-month intervention, body weight reduction was -10 ± 8% and -7 ± 4% in HP and LP diet, respectively, and it remained similar at month 12. Both dietary interventions improved anthropometric parameters, body composition, glucose and lipid metabolism, but no significant differences were observed between treatment groups. No differences were observed for blood pressure and heart rate between treatments and among times. HP diet significantly improved perception of quality of life for the physical component.
CONCLUSIONS
Independent of pasta consumption frequency, low-energy Mediterranean diets were successful in improving anthropometrics, physiological parameters and dietary habits after a 6-month weight-loss intervention. This trial was registered at clinicaltrials.gov as NCT03341650.",2020,"Both dietary interventions improved anthropometric parameters, body composition, glucose and lipid metabolism, but no significant differences were observed between treatment groups.","['Forty-nine volunteers finished a quasi-experimental 6-month two-parallel group dietary intervention', 'individuals with obesity decreases after a 6-month high pasta or low pasta Mediterranean diet weight-loss intervention', 'individuals with obesity']","['low-energy high pasta (HP) or to a low-energy low Pasta (LP', 'HP diet', 'Mediterranean diets']","['perception of quality of life', 'Weight maintenance', 'blood pressure and heart rate', 'anthropometrics, physiological parameters and dietary habits', 'glucose and lipid metabolism', 'Blood samples', 'Body weight', 'anthropometric parameters, body composition, glucose and lipid metabolism', 'Anthropometrics, blood pressure and heart rate', 'Body composition (bioelectrical impedance analysis, BIA), food intake (24-h recall plus a 7-day carbohydrate record) and the perceived quality of life (36-item short-form health survey, SF-36', 'body weight reduction']","[{'cui': 'C0042960', 'cui_str': 'Voluntary worker'}, {'cui': 'C1706059', 'cui_str': 'Finish'}, {'cui': 'C0332177', 'cui_str': 'Monthly'}, {'cui': 'C0439745', 'cui_str': 'Grouped'}, {'cui': 'C0086153', 'cui_str': 'Diet Modification'}, {'cui': 'C0027361', 'cui_str': 'Person'}, {'cui': 'C0028754', 'cui_str': 'Obesity'}, {'cui': 'C0205216', 'cui_str': 'Decreased'}, {'cui': 'C0205250', 'cui_str': 'High'}, {'cui': 'C0452694', 'cui_str': 'Pasta'}, {'cui': 'C0205251', 'cui_str': 'Low'}, {'cui': 'C1138412', 'cui_str': 'Mediterranean Diet'}, {'cui': 'C1262477', 'cui_str': 'Weight decreased'}, {'cui': 'C0184661', 'cui_str': 'Procedure'}]","[{'cui': 'C0205251', 'cui_str': 'Low'}, {'cui': 'C0205250', 'cui_str': 'High'}, {'cui': 'C0452694', 'cui_str': 'Pasta'}, {'cui': 'C0012155', 'cui_str': 'Dietary finding'}, {'cui': 'C1138412', 'cui_str': 'Mediterranean Diet'}]","[{'cui': 'C0030971', 'cui_str': 'Perception'}, {'cui': 'C0518214', 'cui_str': 'Quality of life satisfaction'}, {'cui': 'C0005910', 'cui_str': 'Body weight'}, {'cui': 'C0024501', 'cui_str': 'Maintenance'}, {'cui': 'C0005823', 'cui_str': 'Blood pressure'}, {'cui': 'C0018810', 'cui_str': 'Heart rate'}, {'cui': 'C0205463', 'cui_str': 'Physiologic'}, {'cui': 'C0449381', 'cui_str': 'Observation parameter'}, {'cui': 'C0086152', 'cui_str': 'Diet Habits'}, {'cui': 'C0017725', 'cui_str': 'Glucose'}, {'cui': 'C0598783', 'cui_str': 'Lipid Metabolism'}, {'cui': 'C0178913', 'cui_str': 'Blood specimen'}, {'cui': 'C0005885', 'cui_str': 'Body composition'}, {'cui': 'C0162536', 'cui_str': 'Biolectric Impedance'}, {'cui': 'C0002778', 'cui_str': 'Analysis'}, {'cui': 'C0013470', 'cui_str': 'Eating'}, {'cui': 'C0034770', 'cui_str': 'Mental Recall'}, {'cui': 'C0332287', 'cui_str': 'With'}, {'cui': 'C0163299', 'cui_str': 'A 7'}, {'cui': 'C0332173', 'cui_str': 'Daily'}, {'cui': 'C0007004', 'cui_str': 'carbohydrates'}, {'cui': 'C0034869', 'cui_str': 'Records as Topic'}, {'cui': 'C0453933', 'cui_str': 'Shorts'}, {'cui': 'C0205431', 'cui_str': 'Formed'}, {'cui': 'C0018762', 'cui_str': 'Health Surveys'}, {'cui': 'C0301630', 'cui_str': 'Reduction (chemical)'}]",49.0,0.0258637,"Both dietary interventions improved anthropometric parameters, body composition, glucose and lipid metabolism, but no significant differences were observed between treatment groups.","[{'ForeName': 'Alice', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Rosi', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Food & Drugs, University of Parma, Parma, Italy.'}, {'ForeName': 'Margherita', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Tesan', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Medicine and Surgery, University of Parma, Parma, Italy.'}, {'ForeName': 'Annalaura', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Cremonini', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Medicine and Surgery, University of Parma, Parma, Italy.'}, {'ForeName': 'Beatrice', 'Initials': 'B', 'LastName': 'Biasini', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Food & Drugs, University of Parma, Parma, Italy.'}, {'ForeName': 'Lorenza', 'Initials': 'L', 'LastName': 'Bicchieri', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Medicine and Surgery, University of Parma, Parma, Italy.'}, {'ForeName': 'Marta', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Cossu', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Food & Drugs, University of Parma, Parma, Italy.'}, {'ForeName': 'Furio', 'Initials': 'F', 'LastName': 'Brighenti', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Food & Drugs, University of Parma, Parma, Italy.'}, {'ForeName': 'Elisabetta', 'Initials': 'E', 'LastName': ""Dall'Aglio"", 'Affiliation': 'Department of Medicine and Surgery, University of Parma, Parma, Italy.'}, {'ForeName': 'Francesca', 'Initials': 'F', 'LastName': 'Scazzina', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Food & Drugs, University of Parma, Parma, Italy.

710,32402609,Feasibility and efficacy of remotely supervised cranial electrical stimulation for pain in older adults with knee osteoarthritis: A randomized controlled pilot study.,"Cranial electrical stimulation (CES) is a noninvasive brain stimulation technique that has been shown to improve pain. However, few studies have investigated the potential benefits associated with remotely supervised CES in older adults with knee osteoarthritis (OA). The aim of this study was to examine the feasibility and preliminary efficacy of remotely supervised CES via secure videoconferencing software on clinical pain severity, experimental pain sensitivity, and pain-related cortical response in older adults with knee OA. Thirty participants with symptomatic knee OA pain were randomly assigned to receive 10 daily sessions (60 min each) of remotely supervised CES (n = 15) or sham CES (n = 15) over two weeks. We measured clinical pain severity via a Numeric Rating Scale, experimental pain sensitivity (e.g., heat pain sensitivity, pressure pain sensitivity, and conditioned pain modulation) using quantitative sensory testing, and pain-related cortical response via functional near-infrared spectroscopy imaging. We also measured participant satisfaction with treatment using the Client Satisfaction Questionnaire.

711,32403243,Effects of Aerobic Exercise on Cortisol Stress Reactivity in Response to the Trier Social Stress Test in Inpatients with Major Depressive Disorders: A Randomized Controlled Trial.,"Physical activity is associated with a favourable (blunted) cortisol stress reactivity in healthy people. However, evidence from experimental study and with psychiatric patients is missing. This study examines whether exercise training impacts on cortisol stress reactivity in inpatients with major depressive disorder (MDD). These new insights are important because the stress reactivity of healthy people and patients with severe symptoms of depression might differ. Methods: The study was designed as a randomized controlled trial (trial registration number: NCT02679053). In total, 25 patients (13 women, 12 men, mean age: 38.1 12.0 years) completed a laboratory stressor task before and after a six-week intervention period. Nine samples of salivary free cortisol were taken before and after the Trier social stress test (TSST). Fourteen participants took part in six weeks of aerobic exercise training, while 11 patients were allocated to the control condition. While the primary outcome of the study was depressive symptom severity, the focus of this paper is on one of the secondary outcomes (cortisol reactivity during the TSST). The impact of aerobic exercise training was examined with a repeated-measures analysis of variance. We also examined the association between change in depression and cortisol response via correlational analysis. Cortisol reactivity did not change from baseline to post-intervention, either in the intervention or the control group. Participation in six weeks of aerobic exercise training was not associated with participants' cortisol reactivity. Moreover, depressive symptom change was not associated with change in cortisol response. Aerobic exercise training was not associated with patients' stress reactivity in this study. Because many patients initially showed a relatively flat/blunted cortisol response curve, efforts might be needed to find out which treatments are most efficient to promote a normalization of HPA axis reactivity.",2020,"Cortisol reactivity did not change from baseline to post-intervention, either in the intervention or the control group.","['25 patients (13 women, 12 men, mean age: 38.1 12.0 years', 'Fourteen participants took part in six weeks of', 'Inpatients with Major Depressive Disorders', 'inpatients with major depressive disorder (MDD', 'healthy people']","['Aerobic Exercise', 'Aerobic exercise training', 'exercise training', 'aerobic exercise training']","['cortisol stress reactivity', 'depressive symptom change', 'secondary outcomes (cortisol reactivity during the TSST', 'cortisol response', 'depressive symptom severity', 'laboratory stressor task', 'Cortisol Stress Reactivity', ""participants' cortisol reactivity"", 'Cortisol reactivity']","[{'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patient'}, {'cui': 'C0043210', 'cui_str': 'Woman'}, {'cui': 'C0025266', 'cui_str': 'Man'}, {'cui': 'C0444504', 'cui_str': 'Mean'}, {'cui': 'C0001779', 'cui_str': 'Age'}, {'cui': 'C0439234', 'cui_str': 'year'}, {'cui': 'C3715152', 'cui_str': '14'}, {'cui': 'C1515187', 'cui_str': 'Take'}, {'cui': 'C0439230', 'cui_str': 'week'}, {'cui': 'C0021562', 'cui_str': 'Inpatient'}, {'cui': 'C0041696', 'cui_str': 'Depression, Unipolar'}, {'cui': 'C0027361', 'cui_str': 'Person'}]","[{'cui': 'C0001701', 'cui_str': 'Aerobic exercises'}, {'cui': 'C0040607', 'cui_str': 'Training Programs'}, {'cui': 'C4279936', 'cui_str': 'Exercise Training'}]","[{'cui': 'C0020268', 'cui_str': 'Hydrocortisone'}, {'cui': 'C0038435', 'cui_str': 'Stress'}, {'cui': 'C0443286', 'cui_str': 'Reaction'}, {'cui': 'C0086132', 'cui_str': 'Symptoms of depression'}, {'cui': 'C0037400', 'cui_str': 'Social Change'}, {'cui': 'C0027627', 'cui_str': 'Metastasis'}, {'cui': 'C1274040', 'cui_str': 'Result'}, {'cui': 'C0015260', 'cui_str': 'Exercise tolerance test'}, {'cui': 'C0439793', 'cui_str': 'Severities'}, {'cui': 'C0022877', 'cui_str': 'Laboratory'}]",25.0,0.0299703,"Cortisol reactivity did not change from baseline to post-intervention, either in the intervention or the control group.","[{'ForeName': 'Markus', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Gerber', 'Affiliation': 'Sport Science Section, Department of Sport, Exercise and Health, University of Basel, CH-4052 Basel, Switzerland.'}, {'ForeName': 'Christian', 'Initials': 'C', 'LastName': 'Imboden', 'Affiliation': 'Psychiatric Services Solothurn, 4503 Solothurn, Switzerland.'}, {'ForeName': 'Johannes', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Beck', 'Affiliation': 'Clinic Sonnenhalde, 4125 Riehen, Switzerland.'}, {'ForeName': 'Serge', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Brand', 'Affiliation': 'Sport Science Section, Department of Sport, Exercise and Health, University of Basel, CH-4052 Basel, Switzerland.'}, {'ForeName': 'Flora', 'Initials': 'F', 'LastName': 'Colledge', 'Affiliation': 'Sport Science Section, Department of Sport, Exercise and Health, University of Basel, CH-4052 Basel, Switzerland.'}, {'ForeName': 'Anne', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Eckert', 'Affiliation': 'University Psychiatric Clinics (UPK), Neurobiology Laboratory for Brain Aging and Mental Health, University of Basel, 4002 Basel, Switzerland.'}, {'ForeName': 'Edith', 'Initials': 'E', 'LastName': 'Holsboer-Trachsler', 'Affiliation': 'University Psychiatric Clinics (UPK), Center for Affective, Stress and Sleep Disorders, University of Basel, 4002 Basel, Switzerland.'}, {'ForeName': 'Uwe', 'Initials': 'U', 'LastName': 'Pühse', 'Affiliation': 'Sport Science Section, Department of Sport, Exercise and Health, University of Basel, CH-4052 Basel, Switzerland.'}, {'ForeName': 'Martin', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Hatzinger', 'Affiliation': 'Psychiatric Services Solothurn, 4503 Solothurn, Switzerland.'}]",Journal of clinical medicine,['10.3390/jcm9051419']
712,32403259,Effects of 120 g/h of Carbohydrates Intake during a Mountain Marathon on Exercise-Induced Muscle Damage in Elite Runners.,"Background-exercise-induced muscle damage (EIMD) and internal exercise load are increased after competing in ultraendurance events such as mountain marathons. Adequate carbohydrate (CHO) intake during exercise optimizes athletic performance and could limit EIMD, reduce internal exercise load and, thus, improve recovery. Therefore, the aim of this study was to research into and compare the effects of high CHO intake (120 g/h) in terms of CHO intake recommendation (90 g/h) and regular CHO intake performed by ultraendurance athletes (60 g/h) during a mountain marathon, on exercise load and EIMD markers (creatine kinase (CK), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase (GOT), urea and creatinine). Materials and Methods-a randomized trial was carried out on 20 male elite runners who had previously undertaken nutritional and gut training, and who consumed different CHO dosages according to experimental (EXP-120 g/h), control (CON-90 g/h) and low CHO intake (LOW-60 g/h) groups during a ~4000 m cumulative slope mountain marathon. EIMD markers were analyzed before the race and 24 h afterwards. Internal exercise load was calculated based on rate of perceived exertion (RPE) during and after the marathon event. Results-internal exercise load during the mountain marathon was significantly lower ( p = 0.019; η 2 p = 0.471) in EXP (3805 ± 281 AU) compared to LOW (4688 ± 705 AU) and CON (4692 ± 716 AU). Moreover, results revealed that the EXP group evidenced significantly lower CK ( p = 0.019; η 2 p = 0.373), LDH ( p < 0.001; η 2 p = 0.615) and GOT ( p = 0.003; η 2 p = 0.500) values 24 h after the mountain marathon race compared to LOW and CON. Along these lines, EIMD and exercise load evidenced a close correlation (R = 0.742; p < 0.001). Conclusion: High CHO intake (120 g/h) during a mountain marathon could limit the EIMD observed by CK, LDH and GOT and internal exercise load compared to CHO ingestion of 60 and 90 g/h.",2020,Results-internal exercise load during the mountain marathon was significantly lower ( p = 0.019; η 2 p = 0.471) in EXP (3805 ± 281 AU) compared to LOW (4688 ± 705 AU) and CON (4692 ± 716 AU).,"['Elite Runners', '20 male elite runners who had previously undertaken nutritional and gut training, and who consumed different CHO dosages according to experimental (EXP-120 g/h), control (CON-90 g/h) and low CHO intake (LOW-60 g/h) groups during a ~4000 m cumulative slope mountain marathon']","['high CHO intake', 'Carbohydrates Intake', '-exercise-induced muscle damage (EIMD']","['exercise load and EIMD markers (creatine kinase (CK), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase (GOT), urea and creatinine', 'rate of perceived exertion (RPE', 'regular CHO intake', 'GOT', 'CK']","[{'cui': 'C0086582', 'cui_str': 'Male'}, {'cui': 'C0017189', 'cui_str': 'Gastrointestinal tract structure'}, {'cui': 'C0040607', 'cui_str': 'Training Programs'}, {'cui': 'C0054889', 'cui_str': 'CAV protocol'}, {'cui': 'C0178602', 'cui_str': 'Dosage'}, {'cui': 'C4319550', 'cui_str': '120'}, {'cui': 'C0560020', 'cui_str': 'g/h'}, {'cui': 'C0009932', 'cui_str': 'Control Groups'}, {'cui': 'C0205251', 'cui_str': 'Low'}, {'cui': 'C3251814', 'cui_str': 'Measurement of fluid intake'}, {'cui': 'C0439745', 'cui_str': 'Grouped'}, {'cui': 'C0442533', 'cui_str': 'Mountain'}, {'cui': 'C0168374', 'cui_str': 'Marathon composite resin'}]","[{'cui': 'C0205250', 'cui_str': 'High'}, {'cui': 'C0054889', 'cui_str': 'CAV protocol'}, {'cui': 'C3251814', 'cui_str': 'Measurement of fluid intake'}, {'cui': 'C0007004', 'cui_str': 'carbohydrates'}, {'cui': 'C0015259', 'cui_str': 'Exercise'}, {'cui': 'C0205263', 'cui_str': 'Induced'}, {'cui': 'C0410158', 'cui_str': 'Muscle damage NOS'}]","[{'cui': 'C0015259', 'cui_str': 'Exercise'}, {'cui': 'C0205263', 'cui_str': 'Induced'}, {'cui': 'C0410158', 'cui_str': 'Muscle damage NOS'}, {'cui': 'C0005516', 'cui_str': 'Biological Markers'}, {'cui': 'C0010287', 'cui_str': 'Creatine kinase'}, {'cui': 'C0202113', 'cui_str': 'Lactate dehydrogenase measurement'}, {'cui': 'C0004002', 'cui_str': 'Aspartate aminotransferase'}, {'cui': 'C0041942', 'cui_str': 'Urea'}, {'cui': 'C0010294', 'cui_str': 'Creatinine'}, {'cui': 'C0030971', 'cui_str': 'Perception'}, {'cui': 'C0015264', 'cui_str': 'Exertion'}, {'cui': 'C0205272', 'cui_str': 'Regular'}, {'cui': 'C0054889', 'cui_str': 'CAV protocol'}, {'cui': 'C3251814', 'cui_str': 'Measurement of fluid intake'}]",20.0,0.0227273,Results-internal exercise load during the mountain marathon was significantly lower ( p = 0.019; η 2 p = 0.471) in EXP (3805 ± 281 AU) compared to LOW (4688 ± 705 AU) and CON (4692 ± 716 AU).,"[{'ForeName': 'Aitor', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Viribay', 'Affiliation': 'Glut4Science, Physiology, Nutrition and Sport, 01004 Vitoria-Gasteiz, Spain.'}, {'ForeName': 'Soledad', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Arribalzaga', 'Affiliation': 'Institute of Biomedicine (IBIOMED), Physiotherapy Department, University of Leon, Campus de Vegazana, 24071 Leon, Spain.'}, {'ForeName': 'Juan', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Mielgo-Ayuso', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Biochemistry Molecular Biology and Physiology, Faculty of Health Sciences, University of Valladolid, 42004 Soria, Spain.'}, {'ForeName': 'Arkaitz', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Castañeda-Babarro', 'Affiliation': 'Health, Physical Activity and Sports Science Laboratory, Department of Physical Activity and Sports, Faculty of Psychology and Education, University of Deusto, 48007 Bizkaia, Spain.'}, {'ForeName': 'Jesús', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Seco-Calvo', 'Affiliation': 'Institute of Biomedicine (IBIOMED), Physiotherapy Department, University of Leon, Researcher at the Basque Country University, Campus de Vegazana, 24071 Leon, Spain.'}, {'ForeName': 'Aritz', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Urdampilleta', 'Affiliation': 'Centro de Investigacion y de Formación ElikaEsport, 08290 Cerdanyola del Valles, Barcelona, Spain.'}]",Nutrients,['10.3390/nu12051367']
713,32403299,Exploring the Provider-Level Socio-Demographic Determinants of Diet Quality of Preschool-Aged Children Attending Family Childcare Homes.,"Since food preferences develop during early childhood and contribute to dietary patterns that can track into adulthood, it is critical to support healthy food environments in places where children spend significant amounts of time in, such as childcare. It is important to understand what factors influence the diet quality of children cared for in family childcare homes (FCCH).
METHODS
This study used baseline data from a cluster-randomized trial in FCCH, Healthy Start/Comienzos Sanos. Surveys capturing providers' socio-demographic characteristics were completed. Food and beverage consumptions were estimated using the Dietary Observation in Childcare protocol, and diet quality was calculated using the Healthy Eating Index (HEI)-2015. Comparison of mean HEI scores by provider socio-demographic variables were completed using ANOVAs, followed by multiple linear regression models for significant variables. Post-hoc ANOVA models compared mean HEI-2015 sub-components by income and ethnicity.
RESULTS
Significant differences in mean HEI-2015 scores were found for provider income level (less than $25,000, HEI: 64.8 vs. $25,001-$50,000: 62.9 vs. $75,001 or more: 56.2; p = 0.03), ethnicity (Non-Latinx: 56.6 vs. Latinx: 64.4; p = 0.002), language spoken outside of childcare (English: 58.6 vs. Spanish: 64.3, p = 0.005), and language spoken in childcare (English: 59.6 vs. Spanish: 64.4; p = 0.02). In linear regression models, a higher provider income ($75,001 or more) was negatively and significantly associated with the total HEI-2015 scores (β = -9.8, SE = 3.7; p = 0.009) vs. lower income (less than $25,000). When entering provider income and ethnicity to the same model, adjusting for Child and Adult Food Program (CACFP), only ethnicity was significant, with Latinx being positively associated with total HEI-2015 scores vs. non-Latinx (β = 6.5, SE = 2.4; p = 0.007). Statistically significant differences were found by ethnicity and language for greens/beans, total protein, and seafood and plant protein HEI-2015 component scores.
DISCUSSION
Lower income, and Latinx providers cared-for children had higher diet quality in FCCH compared to the other providers. Future studies should better understand what specific foods contribute to each of the HEI-2015 components in order to better tailor trainings and interventions.",2020,"Statistically significant differences were found by ethnicity and language for greens/beans, total protein, and seafood and plant protein HEI-2015 component scores.

The aim of this study was to evaluate a tool constructed to measure the development of therapeutic-decision-making skills by practicing pharmacists undertaking a university-based continuing professional development program. (2) Methods: A pre- and post-intervention crossover study design was used to investigate the qualitative and quantitative features of practicing pharmacists' responses to two clinical vignettes designed to measure the development of therapeutic-decision-making skills. The vignettes were assigned a score using a five-point scale and compared pre- and post-intervention.

715,32404389,Focus group discussions on low-flow oxygen and bubble CPAP treatments among mothers of young children in Malawi: a CPAP IMPACT substudy.,"OBJECTIVE
To determine the acceptability of bubble continuous positive airway pressure (bCPAP) and low-flow oxygen among mothers of children who had received either therapy.
SETTING
A district hospital in Salima, Malawi.
PARTICIPANTS
We conducted eight focus group discussions (FGDs) with a total of 54 participants. Eligible participants were mothers of children 1 to 59 months of age with severe pneumonia and a comorbidity (HIV-infection, HIV-exposure, malnutrition or hypoxaemia) who, with informed consent, had been enrolled in a randomised clinical trial, CPAP IMPACT (Improving Mortality for Pneumonia in African Children Trial), comparing low-flow oxygen and bCPAP treatments (ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT02484183).
PRIMARY AND SECONDARY OUTCOME MEASURES
FGDs assessed mothers' attitudes and feelings towards oxygen and bCPAP before and after therapy along with general community perceptions of respiratory therapies. Data was analysed using inductive thematic analysis to assess themes and subthemes of the transcripts.
RESULTS
Community perceptions of oxygen and bCPAP were widely negative. Mothers recounted that they are told that 'oxygen kills babies'. They are often fearful of allowing their child to receive oxygen therapy and will delay treatment or seek alternative therapies. Mothers report limiting oxygen and bCPAP by intermittently removing the nasal cannulas or mask. After oxygen or bCPAP treatment, regardless of patient outcome, mothers were supportive of the treatment their child received and would recommend it to other mothers.
CONCLUSION
There are significant community misconceptions around oxygen and bCPAP causing mothers to be fearful of either treatment. In order for low-flow oxygen treatment and bCPAP implementation to be effective, widespread community education is necessary.",2020,"After oxygen or bCPAP treatment, regardless of patient outcome, mothers were supportive of the treatment their child received and would recommend it to other mothers.

716,32404390,Effects of an automated digital brief prevention intervention targeting adolescents and young adults with risky alcohol and other substance use: study protocol for a randomised controlled trial.,"INTRODUCTION
Adolescence and young adulthood is a period in life when individuals may be especially vulnerable to harmful substance use. Several critical developmental processes are occurring in the brain, and substance use poses both short-term and long-term risks with regard to mental health and social development. From a public health perspective, it is important to prevent or delay substance use to reduce individual risk and societal costs. Given the scarcity of effective interventions targeting substance use among adolescents and young adults, cost-effective and easily disseminated interventions are warranted. The current study will test the effectiveness of a fully automated digital brief intervention aimed at reducing alcohol and other substance use in adolescents and young adults aged 15 to 25 years.
METHODS AND ANALYSIS
A two-arm, double-blind, randomised controlled trial design is applied to assess the effectiveness of the intervention. Baseline assessment, as well as 3-month and 6-month follow-up, will be carried out. The aim is to include 800 participants with risky substance use based on the screening tool CRAFFT (Car,Relax, Alone, Forget, Friends, Trouble). Recruitment, informed consent, randomisation, intervention and follow-up will be implemented online. The primary outcome is reduction in alcohol use, measured by Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test total score. Secondary outcomes concern binge drinking, frequency of alcohol consumption, amount of alcohol consumed a typical day when alcohol is consumed, average daily drinks per typical week, other substance use, mental health, sexual risk behaviours and perceived peer pressure. Moreover, the study involves analyses of potential moderators including perfectionism, openness to parents, help-seeking and background variables.
ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION
The study was approved by the Swedish Ethical Review Authority (no. 2019-03249). The trial is expected to expand the knowledge on digital preventive interventions for substance using adolescents and young adults. Results will be disseminated in research journals, at conferences and via the media.

717,32404430,Graduated compression stockings as adjuvant to pharmaco-thromboprophylaxis in elective surgical patients (GAPS study): randomised controlled trial.,"OBJECTIVES
To investigate whether the use of graduated compression stockings (GCS) offers any adjuvant benefit when pharmaco-thromboprophylaxis is used for venous thromboembolism prophylaxis in patients undergoing elective surgery.
DESIGN
Open, multicentre, randomised, controlled, non-inferiority trial.
SETTING
Seven National Health Service tertiary hospitals in the United Kingdom.
PARTICIPANTS
1905 elective surgical inpatients (≥18 years) assessed as being at moderate or high risk of venous thromboembolism were eligible and consented to participate.
INTERVENTION
Participants were randomly assigned (1:1) to receive low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) pharmaco-thromboprophylaxis alone or LMWH pharmaco-thromboprophylaxis and GCS.
OUTCOME MEASURES
The primary outcome was imaging confirmed lower limb deep vein thrombosis with or without symptoms, or pulmonary embolism with symptoms within 90 days of surgery. Secondary outcome measures were quality of life, compliance with stockings and LMWH, lower limb complications related to GCS, bleeding complications, adverse reactions to LMWH, and all cause mortality.
RESULTS
Between May 2016 and January 2019, 1905 participants were randomised. 1858 were included in the intention to treat analysis (17 were identified as ineligible after randomisation and 30 did not undergo surgery). A primary outcome event occurred in 16 of 937 (1.7%) patients in the LMWH alone group compared with 13 of 921 (1.4%) in the LMWH and GCS group. The risk difference between the two groups was 0.30% (95% confidence interval -0.65% to 1.26%). Because the 95% confidence interval did not cross the non-inferiority margin of 3.5% (P<0.001 for non-inferiority), LMWH alone was confirmed to be non-inferior.
CONCLUSIONS
For patients who have elective surgery and are at moderate or high risk of venous thromboembolism, administration of pharmaco-thromboprophylaxis alone is non-inferior to a combination of pharmaco-thromboprophylaxis and GCS. These findings indicate that GCS might be unnecessary in most patients undergoing elective surgery.

718,32404518,"Impact of flavors and humectants on waterpipe tobacco smoking topography, subjective effects, toxicant exposure and intentions for continued use.","INTRODUCTION
The present study examined how the lack of characterising flavours and low levels of humectants may affect users' waterpipe tobacco (WT) smoking topography, subjective effects, toxicant exposure and intentions for continued use.
METHODS
89 WT smokers completed four ad libitum smoking sessions (characterising flavor/high humectant (+F+H); characterising flavor/low humectant (+F-H); no characterising flavor/high humectant (-F+H); no characterising flavor/low humectant (-F-H)) in a randomised cross-over design. WT was commercially available; same brand but nicotine levels were not held constant. A subsample (n=50) completed a standardised, 10-puff session preceding ad libitum smoking. Participants completed questionnaires, exhaled carbon monoxide (eCO) testing and provided blood samples for plasma nicotine. Smoking topography was measured throughout the session. Post hoc analyses showed that -F+H and -F-H did not differ significantly in humectant levels. Therefore, these groups were collapsed in analyses (-F-H).
RESULTS
WT smokers reported significantly greater satisfaction, liking, enjoyment and greater intentions for continued use when smoking +F+H compared with other WT products, with -F-H receiving the lowest ratings. Significant differences in topography were observed during standardised and ad libitum sessions, with the -F-H preparation leading to greater total inhaled volume and eCO boost, but lower nicotine boost compared with +F+H (all p<0.05).

719,32405701,Intraocular pressure increases during dynamic resistance training exercises according to the exercise phase in healthy young adults.,"PURPOSE
To determine the intraocular pressure (IOP) changes caused by the execution of lower body and upper body resistance training exercises leading to muscular failure depending on the exercise phase (concentric vs. eccentric). We also assessed the influence of the exercise type (back squat vs. biceps curl) and level of effort on the IOP response.
METHODS
Nineteen physically active young adults performed four sets (2 exercise type × 2 exercise phase) of 10 repetitions leading to muscular failure while adopting a normal breathing pattern. IOP was measured by rebound tonometry at baseline, after each of the ten repetitions, and after 1 min of recovery.
RESULTS
There was a main effect of the exercise phase (p < 0.001, η 2 = 0.56), observing greater IOP values in the eccentric condition of the back squat and concentric condition of the biceps curl. Also, greater IOP values were obtained for the back squat in comparison with the biceps curl (p < 0.001, η 2 = 0.61), and IOP progressively increases with the level of accumulated effort (p < 0.001, η 2 = 0.88; Pearson r = 0.97-0.98).
CONCLUSIONS
IOP fluctuates during the different phases of the repetition in dynamic resistance training exercises, being greater IOP values observed during the more physically demanding phases of the exercise (eccentric phase of the back squat and concentric phase of the biceps curl). A heightened IOP response is positively associated with muscle size (back squat > biceps curl) and with the level of effort (number of accumulated repetitions). Based on these findings, highly demanding dynamic resistance training should be avoided when maintaining stable IOP levels is desirable.",2020,"There was a main effect of the exercise phase (p < 0.001, η 2 = 0.56), observing greater IOP values in the eccentric condition of the back squat and concentric condition of the biceps curl.","['Nineteen physically active young adults', 'healthy young adults']","['dynamic resistance training exercises', 'exercise type × 2 exercise phase) of 10 repetitions leading to muscular failure while adopting a normal breathing pattern']","['greater IOP values', 'IOP', 'IOP response', 'Intraocular pressure', 'IOP values', 'intraocular pressure (IOP) changes']","[{'cui': 'C0450337', 'cui_str': '19'}, {'cui': 'C0556453', 'cui_str': 'Physically active'}, {'cui': 'C0238598', 'cui_str': 'Young Adult'}]","[{'cui': 'C0729333', 'cui_str': 'Dynamic'}, {'cui': 'C0872279', 'cui_str': 'Strength Training'}, {'cui': 'C0015259', 'cui_str': 'Exercise'}, {'cui': 'C0205390', 'cui_str': 'Phase'}, {'cui': 'C0205341', 'cui_str': 'Repeat'}, {'cui': 'C0023175', 'cui_str': 'Lead'}, {'cui': 'C0442025', 'cui_str': 'Muscular'}, {'cui': 'C0231174', 'cui_str': 'Failure'}, {'cui': 'C0425382', 'cui_str': 'Adopted'}, {'cui': 'C0231795', 'cui_str': 'Normal respiratory function'}, {'cui': 'C0449774', 'cui_str': 'Patterns'}]","[{'cui': 'C0205393', 'cui_str': 'Most'}, {'cui': 'C0021888', 'cui_str': 'Intraocular pressure'}, {'cui': 'C1273875', 'cui_str': 'Values (community)'}, {'cui': 'C0037400', 'cui_str': 'Social Change'}]",19.0,0.0291437,"There was a main effect of the exercise phase (p < 0.001, η 2 = 0.56), observing greater IOP values in the eccentric condition of the back squat and concentric condition of the biceps curl.","[{'ForeName': 'Jesús', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Vera', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Optics, Faculty of Sciences, University of Granada, Campus Fuentenueva, 18071, Granada, Spain.'}, {'ForeName': 'Beatríz', 'Initials': 'B', 'LastName': 'Redondo', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Optics, Faculty of Sciences, University of Granada, Campus Fuentenueva, 18071, Granada, Spain.'}, {'ForeName': 'Alejandro', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Perez-Castilla', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Physical Education and Sport, Faculty of Sport Sciences, University of Granada, Granada, Spain.'}, {'ForeName': 'Raimundo', 'Initials': 'R', 'LastName': 'Jiménez', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Optics, Faculty of Sciences, University of Granada, Campus Fuentenueva, 18071, Granada, Spain. raimundo@ugr.es.'}, {'ForeName': 'Amador', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'García-Ramos', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Physical Education and Sport, Faculty of Sport Sciences, University of Granada, Granada, Spain.'}]",Graefe's archive for clinical and experimental ophthalmology = Albrecht von Graefes Archiv fur klinische und experimentelle Ophthalmologie,['10.1007/s00417-020-04736-2']
720,32405757,Attention-enhancing effects of propranolol and synergistic effects with nicotine.,"Nicotine increases the output of every major neurotransmitter. In previous studies designed to identify the secondary neurotransmitter systems mediating nicotine's attention-enhancing effects in a rat model, the β-adrenoceptor antagonist propranolol blocked these effects. The present study was designed to test whether this mechanism held true in humans, thus guiding development of novel nicotinic agonists for cognitive enhancement. Twenty-six nonsmokers completed a nicotine (7 mg/24 h transdermally) x propranolol (40 mg p.o., body weight-adjusted) interaction study. Over four test days, each participant received double-placebo, nicotine only, propranolol only, and nicotine plus propranolol in randomized sequence before cognitive testing. No drug effects were seen in a visuospatial attention task. In the Rapid Visual Information Processing Task, performed in two 15-min blocks, neither drug alone significantly affected hit rate, but both drugs combined acted synergistically to alleviate its decrement over time in the first block and displayed additive beneficial effects in the second. In a change detection task, propranolol enhanced accuracy and reduced reaction time independent of nicotine presence. Propranolol also enhanced subjective self-reports of vigor. Overall, the findings were contrary to those hypothesized. Propranolol displayed beneficial effects on cognition, especially on sustaining performance over time. β-adrenoceptor activation by nicotine-induced noradrenaline release appeared to limit performance-enhancing effects of nicotine, because they were unmasked by β-adrenoceptor antagonism. The results suggest that cognitive effects of changes in β-adrenoceptor tone are context-dependent; contrary to rodent paradigms, human cognitive paradigms require no physical orienting in space but prolonged periods of remaining stationary while sustaining predictable processing demands.",2020,"In the Rapid Visual Information Processing Task, performed in two 15-min blocks, neither drug alone significantly affected hit rate, but both drugs combined acted synergistically to alleviate its decrement over time in the first block and displayed additive beneficial effects in the second.",['Twenty-six nonsmokers completed a nicotine (7 mg/24 h transdermally'],"['double-placebo, nicotine only, propranolol only, and nicotine plus propranolol', 'nicotine', 'Nicotine', 'Propranolol', 'propranolol']","['visuospatial attention task', 'output of every major neurotransmitter']","[{'cui': 'C0450349', 'cui_str': '26'}, {'cui': 'C0337672', 'cui_str': 'Non-smoker'}, {'cui': 'C0205197', 'cui_str': 'Complete'}, {'cui': 'C0028040', 'cui_str': 'Nicotine'}]","[{'cui': 'C0205173', 'cui_str': 'Double'}, {'cui': 'C0032042', 'cui_str': 'Sham Treatment'}, {'cui': 'C0028040', 'cui_str': 'Nicotine'}, {'cui': 'C0033497', 'cui_str': 'Propranolol'}, {'cui': 'C0332287', 'cui_str': 'With'}]","[{'cui': 'C0004268', 'cui_str': 'Attention'}, {'cui': 'C3251815', 'cui_str': 'Measurement of fluid output'}, {'cui': 'C0205082', 'cui_str': 'Severe'}, {'cui': 'C0027908', 'cui_str': 'Neurotransmitter'}]",,0.0267626,"In the Rapid Visual Information Processing Task, performed in two 15-min blocks, neither drug alone significantly affected hit rate, but both drugs combined acted synergistically to alleviate its decrement over time in the first block and displayed additive beneficial effects in the second.","[{'ForeName': 'Britta', 'Initials': 'B', 'LastName': 'Hahn', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Psychiatry, Maryland Psychiatric Research Center, University of Maryland School of Medicine, P.O.

721,32405884,Effect of patient-specific instrument on lowering threshold for junior physicians to perform total hip arthroplasty on developmental dysplasia of the hip patients.,"PURPOSE
To create a patient-specific instrument (PSI) in lowering the surgical experience requirement for junior physicians to perform total hip arthroplasty (THA) on developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) patients.
METHODS
Combined with rapid prototyping technology, we created a PSI and established DDH hip model in vitro. We enrolled 48 junior physicians and randomly assigned them into two groups. After creation of the PSI, they performed simulated THA surgery on a full-scale hip model with or without PSI on DDH models. The planned prothesis orientation, post-operative prothesis orientation, and surgery time were recorded.
RESULTS
The final cup inclination was 42.0 ± 0.8° in PSI group and 37.8 ± 2.0° in control group, while final cup anteversion was 16.0 ± 0.7° in PSI group and 24.7 ± 3.5° in control group. The △inclination in PSI group was smaller than that in control group (4.2 ± 0.5° vs 9.5 ± 1.4°, P < 0.01), so does △inclination (2.9 ± 0.4° in PSI group vs 15.2 ± 2.5° in control group, P < 0.01). The outlier percent was 8.3% in PSI group and 70.8% in control group (P < 0.01). At the same time, the PSI group did not prolong the operation time (P = 0.551).
CONCLUSION
The PSI can greatly increase the accuracy of placing the cup orientation and lower the threshold for junior physicians to perform THA on DDH patients.

722,32405975,A randomized-controlled trial of sugammadex versus neostigmine: impact on early postoperative strength.,"BACKGROUND
Residual neuromuscular blockade after surgery is associated with airway obstruction, hypoxia, and respiratory complications. Compared with neostigmine, sugammadex reverses neuromuscular blockade to a train-of-four ratio > 0.9 more rapidly. It is unknown, however, whether the superior reversal profile of sugammadex improves clinically relevant measures of strength in the early postoperative period.
METHODS
Patients undergoing general, gynecological, or urologic surgery were randomized to receive either neostigmine (70 µg·kg -1 , maximum 5 mg) or sugammadex (2 or 4 mg·kg -1 ) to reverse neuromuscular blockade. The primary outcome was the ability to breathe deeply measured by incentive spirometry at 30, 60, and 120 min after reversal.
RESULTS
We randomized 62 patients to either a neostigmine (n = 31) or sugammadex (n = 31) group. The incentive spirometry volume recovery trajectory was not different between the two groups (P = 0.35). Median spirometry volumes at baseline, 30, 60, and 120 min postoperatively were 2650 vs 2500 mL, 1775 vs 1750 mL, 1375 vs 2000 mL, and 1800 vs 1950 mL for the sugammadex and neostigmine groups, respectively. Postoperative incentive spirometry decrease from baseline was not different between the two groups. Hand grip strength, the ability to sit unaided, train-of-four ratio on postanesthesia care unit (PACU) admission, time to extubation, time to PACU discharge readiness, and Quality of Recovery-15 scores were also not different between the groups.
CONCLUSIONS
Measures of postoperative strength, such as incentive spirometry, hand group strength, and the ability to sit up in the early postoperative period were not different in patients who received neostigmine or sugammadex for the reversal of neuromuscular blockade.

723,32033935,Effect on efficacy and safety trial outcomes of also enrolling patients on ongoing glucocorticoid therapy in rheumatoid arthritis clinical trials of tocilizumab or adalimumab or methotrexate monotherapy.,"BACKGROUND
In rheumatoid arthritis (RA) trials, inclusion of patients on background treatment with glucocorticoids (GCs) might impact efficacy and safety outcomes.
OBJECTIVES
To determine if inclusion of patients on background GC use influenced efficacy and safety outcomes of RA randomised clinical trials on initiation of tocilizumab (TCZ) or adalimumab (ADA) or methotrexate (MTX) monotherapy.
METHODS
Data of four double-blind RA randomised controlled trials (AMBITION, ACT-RAY, ADACTA and FUNCTION) with in total four TCZ, one ADA and two MTX monotherapy arms were analysed. Analyses of covariance of changes from baseline to week 24 in efficacy endpoints and radiographic progression up to week 104 were performed, correcting for relevant covariates. Incidence rates of serious adverse events (SAEs) were assessed.
RESULTS
No statistically significant differences were found in efficacy parameters between background GC users and non-GC users, except for less radiographic progression associated with GC usage in one MTX arm.

724,32402555,Spectral-Domain OCT Analysis of Risk Factors for Macular Atrophy Development in the HARBOR Study for Neovascular Age-Related Macular Degeneration.,"PURPOSE
To identify baseline risk factors for macular atrophy (MA) development in HARBOR via a longitudinal assessment of monthly spectral-domain (SD)-OCT scans. Previous analyses of MA in HARBOR examined data from color fundus photography (CFP) and fluorescein angiography (FA).
DESIGN
Retrospective, post hoc analysis of SD-OCT images from HARBOR (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier, NCT00891735), a phase 3, multicenter, prospective, randomized, double-blind, active treatment-controlled clinical trial.
PARTICIPANTS
Patients (N = 1097) with subfoveal choroidal neovascularization secondary to neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD) treated with intravitreal ranibizumab 0.5 mg monthly (n = 275), 0.5 mg pro re nata (PRN) after 3 loading doses (n = 275), 2.0 mg monthly (n = 274), or 2.0 mg PRN (n = 273).
METHODS
Evaluable SD-OCT macular cube scans from patients with 24 months of follow-up (N = 941) were examined monthly from baseline to month 24 by masked reading center-trained graders. Atrophy diagnosis criteria were consistent with those proposed by the Classification of Atrophy Meetings (CAM) group: hypertransmission of light into the choroid, loss of retinal pigment epithelium, and loss of outer retinal layers. Multivariable proportional hazards regression was performed for time to atrophy development.
MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES
Risk factors for MA as determined by time to MA development over 24 months of treatment.
RESULTS
Baseline risk factors for MA were confirmed from prior analyses that used CFP and FA data: absence of subretinal fluid, presence of intraretinal cysts, presence of Type 3 neovascularization, and presence of atrophy in the fellow eye. This analysis of SD-OCT data identified new baseline risk factors for MA: higher central drusen volume, lower choroidal thickness, presence of nascent atrophy, presence of reticular pseudodrusen, and increased central foveal thickness. Ranibizumab treatment regimen and dose level were not found to be risk factors for MA development.
CONCLUSIONS
In this analysis of a major nAMD trial using CAM atrophy criteria, new baseline risk factors for MA development were identified using an SD-OCT dataset. Risk factors for MA development identified by prior analyses were confirmed.

725,32402558,Modified sensory stimulation using breastmilk for reducing pain intensity in neonates in Indonesia: A randomized controlled trial.,"PURPOSE
Several studies have shown that oral sucrose reduces pain in newborns. However, sucrose has no efficacy in eliminating pain and long-term effects remain unclear. Breast milk may be useful as an alternative, safe sweet solution. Sensorial saturation (SS) is a multisensory analgesic non-pharmacological treatment, which includes touch and sounds as distractors. This study aimed to compare the analgesic effects of SS with sucrose (SSS), SS with breast milk (SSB), and oral sucrose alone (S24%) in neonates undergoing venipuncture.
DESIGN AND METHODS
This was a randomized controlled trial conducted on 108 neonates who underwent venipuncture at neonatology wards. All babies were randomly assigned to one of three groups: two intervention groups and one control group. Pain response was assessed using the premature infant pain profile-revised (PIPP-R). Data analysis was conducted using the Kruskal-Wallis test and Mann-Whitney U test.
RESULTS
SSB and SSS were more effective than S24% (p = 0.001). No difference was observed between SSB and SSS (p = 0.669).
CONCLUSION
Multisensory stimulation is more effective in reducing pain than unimodal (oral sucrose) analgesia. Breast milk can be used as a sensory gustatory stimulus in multisensory stimulation to reduce pain intensity in neonates, and demonstrates a similar analgesic effect to sucrose.
PRACTICE IMPLICATIONS
The study findings suggest that neonatal nurses could use SSB for management of pain. This intervention could serve as an effective, inexpensive, and safe non-pharmacological analgesic. Additional testing of this intervention is warranted to support its use as an evidence-based pain reduction approach.",2020,"RESULTS

726,32403962,The effect of antithrombotic therapy on the recurrence of placenta-mediated diseases in pregnancy.,"Objectives: To analyze the recurrence rate of placenta-mediated diseases (PMDs) such as preeclampsia (PE) and/or intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR), intrauterine fetal death (IUFD), and placental abruption (PA) in high-risk patients on antithrombotic therapy (AT) because of a previous obstetrical history for such complications. Methods: The study group (SG) included 150 patients to whom either 100 mg of aspirin or low-molecular weight heparin (LMWH) was administered due to a previous history of PMDs. The AT in the SG was started before 16 gestational weeks (g.w.). The patients in the first control group (CG-1) were 150 who also had a previous obstetrical history of PMDs, but did not receive antithrombotic therapy (AT) throughout their ongoing pregnancies. The second CG (CG-2) comprised 320 patients with a previous history of normally developing pregnancies and without AT throughout their ongoing pregnancies. Results: The total percentage of PE in pregnant patients from the SG was 25.3% (38/150 patients), with 22.2% (10/45) in the SG on AT only with LDA (SG-LDA group), 25% (17/68) in the SG on AT only with LMWHs (SG-LMWH group) and 29.7% (11/37) in the SG on combined AT with LDA and LMWHs (SG-LDA + LMWH group), as opposed to 18.67% (28/150) in CG-1 and 0.62% (2/320) in CG-2. The recurrent severe PE/total PE ratio in the SG was 44.7% (17/38), with 30% (3/10) in the SG-LDA group, 47% (8/17) in the SG-LMWH group and 54% (6/11) in the SG-LDA + LMWH group, against 75% (21/28) in CG-1. There were no cases with severe PE in CG-2. All cases with recurrent IUGR from the SG were equal to 13.3% (20/150), with 13.3% (6/45) in the SG-LDA group, 11.76% (8/68) in the SG-LMWH group and 16.2% (6/37) in the SG-LDA + LMWH group, as compared to 30% (45/150) in CG-1 and 5% (16/320) in CG-2. As a whole, the overall recurrence rate of PMDs in the SG was 38.67% (58/150), with 35.56% (16/45) in the SG-LDA group, 36.76% (25/68) in the SG-LMWH group and 45.9% (17/37) in the SG-LDA + LMWH group, as compared to 50.67% (76/150) in CG-1 and 5.94% (19/320) in CG-2. Conclusion: AT had a partial beneficial effect on the prophylaxis of recurrent PMDs. On the one hand, AT led to a significant reduction in the recurrent severe PE/total PE ratio, as well as in the total PMDs' recurrence rate in the SG as compared to the one in CG-1. On the other hand, the percentage of recurrent PMDs still remained significantly higher in the SG as compared to CG-2.

727,32403999,Crossover effects of ultrasound-guided percutaneous neuromodulation on contralateral hamstring flexibility.,"BACKGROUND
Crossover effects refer to the responses of a non-exercised contralateral limb. There is evidence of this effect, as it relates to muscle fatigue, strength, and stretch, but not as it relates to neuromodulation.
OBJECTIVES
To compare the crossover effects of percutaneous neuromodulation (PNM) on hip range of motion (ROM), observed in a straight leg raise (SLR) test, in asymptomatic participants with bilateral reduced hamstring flexibility, versus the neurodynamic sciatic sliding technique, hamstring stretching and mechanical stimulation of the sciatic nerve using a needle (without electrical stimulation). To evaluate the tensiomyographic changes between the two lower limbs after these interventions.
METHODS
80 participants with bilateral reduced hamstring flexibility were randomized into four groups: Stretching, Neurodynamic, PNM, and Needle groups. All interventions were performed on the right limb. Each participant's leg was subjected to SLR testing and tensiomyography before and after the interventions.
RESULTS
Each group improved their SLR values in the non-intervention limb compared to baseline values, but the PNM and Needle groups obtained higher values for the SLR test in the non-intervention limb compared with the Neurodynamic and Stretching groups. There were statistically significant differences for mean SLR measures between limbs pre- and post-intervention for all groups except the PNM group, suggesting crossover effects for PNM but not the other techniques studied. There were no differences in tensiomyographic assessments between groups or between sides, at baseline or upon completion of the study.
CONCLUSION
PNM produced benefits in the SLR test in the non-intervention limb and only 1.5 min was enough to obtain this effect. In addition, no technique interfered with muscle activation.",2020,"There were statistically significant differences for mean SLR measures between limbs pre- and post-intervention for all groups except the PNM group, suggesting crossover effects for PNM but not the other techniques studied.","['80 participants with bilateral reduced hamstring flexibility', 'asymptomatic participants with bilateral reduced hamstring flexibility']","['neurodynamic sciatic sliding technique, hamstring stretching and mechanical stimulation of the sciatic nerve using a needle (without electrical stimulation', 'percutaneous neuromodulation (PNM', 'Stretching, Neurodynamic, PNM, and Needle groups', 'ultrasound-guided percutaneous neuromodulation']","['SLR values', 'hip range of motion (ROM', 'tensiomyographic assessments', 'mean SLR measures', 'contralateral hamstring flexibility']","[{'cui': 'C0238767', 'cui_str': 'Right and left'}, {'cui': 'C0584895', 'cui_str': 'Posterior muscle of thigh structure'}, {'cui': 'C0242808', 'cui_str': 'Flexibility'}, {'cui': 'C0231221', 'cui_str': 'Asymptomatic'}]","[{'cui': 'C0025664', 'cui_str': 'methods'}, {'cui': 'C0270814', 'cui_str': 'Spastic syndrome'}, {'cui': 'C1285354', 'cui_str': 'Mechanical stimulation'}, {'cui': 'C0036394', 'cui_str': 'Structure of sciatic nerve'}, {'cui': 'C0007431', 'cui_str': 'Insertion of catheter into artery'}, {'cui': 'C0013786', 'cui_str': 'Stimulation, Electric'}, {'cui': 'C0522523', 'cui_str': 'Percutaneous approach'}, {'cui': 'C0394674', 'cui_str': 'Neurostimulation/modulation'}, {'cui': 'C0439745', 'cui_str': 'Grouped'}, {'cui': 'C0041618', 'cui_str': 'Ultrasonography'}, {'cui': 'C0181090', 'cui_str': 'Guide'}]","[{'cui': 'C0422926', 'cui_str': 'Straight leg raise test response'}, {'cui': 'C1273875', 'cui_str': 'Values (community)'}, {'cui': 'C0576002', 'cui_str': 'Hip joint - range of movement'}, {'cui': 'C0080078', 'cui_str': 'Range of joint movement'}, {'cui': 'C0031809', 'cui_str': 'Physical examination'}, {'cui': 'C0444504', 'cui_str': 'Mean'}, {'cui': 'C0079809', 'cui_str': 'Measure'}, {'cui': 'C0441988', 'cui_str': 'Contralateral'}, {'cui': 'C0584895', 'cui_str': 'Posterior muscle of thigh structure'}, {'cui': 'C0242808', 'cui_str': 'Flexibility'}]",80.0,0.0319151,"There were statistically significant differences for mean SLR measures between limbs pre- and post-intervention for all groups except the PNM group, suggesting crossover effects for PNM but not the other techniques studied.","[{'ForeName': 'Blanca', 'Initials': 'B', 'LastName': 'De-la-Cruz-Torres', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Physiotherapy, University of Seville, Avicena street, 41009, Seville, Spain.'}, {'ForeName': 'Carlos', 'Initials': 'C', 'LastName': 'Carrasco-Iglesias', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Physiotherapy, University of Seville, Avicena street, 41009, Seville, Spain.'}, {'ForeName': 'Francisco', 'Initials': 'F', 'LastName': 'Minaya-Muñoz', 'Affiliation': 'MVClinic Institute, Madrid, Spain; Department of Physiotherapy, CEU San Pablo University, Spain.'}, {'ForeName': 'Carlos', 'Initials': 'C', 'LastName': 'Romero-Morales', 'Affiliation': 'Faculty of Sport Sciences, Universidad Europea de Madrid, Villaviciosa de Odón, 28670, Madrid, Spain.'}]",Acupuncture in medicine : journal of the British Medical Acupuncture Society,['10.1177/0964528420920283']
728,32404001,Economic evaluation alongside a randomised controlled trial to assess the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of acupuncture in the management of chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy.,"OBJECTIVE
To assess the cost-effectiveness of acupuncture in the management of chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) in Hong Kong.
METHODS
A within trial cost-utility analysis with the primary endpoint for the economic evaluation being the Quality Adjusted Life Year (QALY) and associated Incremental Cost Effectiveness Ratio (ICER) over 14 weeks of treatment. A secondary cost-effectiveness analysis was undertaken with the endpoint being change in pain as measured on the Brief Pain Inventory (BPI).
RESULTS
Eighty-seven patients were randomised to acupuncture or usual care. Acupuncture resulted in significant improvements in pain intensity (8- and 14-week mean changes compared to usual care of -1.8 and -1.8, respectively), pain interference (8- and 14-week mean changes compared to usual care of -1.5 and -0.9, respectively) and indicators of quality of life and neurotoxicity-related symptoms. However, in the economic evaluation there was little difference in QALYs between the two arms (mean change 0.209 and 0.200 in the acupuncture and usual care arms, respectively). Also, costs yielded deterministic ICERs of HK$616,965.62, HK$824,083.44 and HK$540,727.56 per QALY gained from the health care provider perspective, the societal perspective and the patient perspective, respectively. These costs are significantly higher than the cost-effectiveness threshold of HK$180,450 that was used for the base case analysis.
CONCLUSION
While acupuncture can improve symptoms and quality of life indicators related to CIPN, it is unlikely to be a cost-effective treatment for CIPN-related pain in health care systems with limited resources.

729,32404035,Antithrombotic Treatment of Embolic Stroke of Undetermined Source: RE-SPECT ESUS Elderly and Renally Impaired Subgroups.,"Background and Purpose- The RE-SPECT ESUS trial (Randomized, Double-Blind, Evaluation in Secondary Stroke Prevention Comparing the Efficacy and Safety of the Oral Thrombin Inhibitor Dabigatran Etexilate Versus Acetylsalicylic Acid in Patients With Embolic Stroke of Undetermined Source) tested the hypothesis that dabigatran would be superior to aspirin for the prevention of recurrent stroke in patients with embolic stroke of undetermined source. This exploratory subgroup analysis investigates the impact of age, renal function (both predefined), and dabigatran dose (post hoc) on the rates of recurrent stroke and major bleeding. Methods- RE-SPECT ESUS was a multicenter, randomized, double-blind trial of dabigatran 150 or 110 mg (for patients aged ≥75 years and/or with creatinine clearance 30 to <50 mL/minute) twice daily compared with aspirin 100 mg once daily. The primary outcome was recurrent stroke. Results- The trial, which enrolled 5390 patients from December 2014 to January 2018, did not demonstrate superiority of dabigatran versus aspirin for prevention of recurrent stroke in patients with embolic stroke of undetermined source. However, among the population qualifying for the lower dabigatran dose, the rate of recurrent stroke was reduced with dabigatran versus aspirin (7.4% versus 13.0%; hazard ratio, 0.57 [95% CI, 0.39-0.82]; interaction P =0.01). This was driven mainly by the subgroup aged ≥75 years (7.8% versus 12.4%; hazard ratio, 0.63 [95% CI, 0.43-0.94]; interaction P =0.10). Stroke rates tended to be lower with dabigatran versus aspirin with declining renal function. Risks for major bleeding were similar between treatments, irrespective of renal function, but with a trend for lower bleeding rates with dabigatran versus aspirin in older patients. Conclusions- In subgroup analyses of RE-SPECT ESUS, dabigatran reduced the rate of recurrent stroke compared with aspirin in patients qualifying for the lower dose of dabigatran. These results are hypothesis-generating. Aspirin remains the standard antithrombotic treatment for patients with embolic stroke of undetermined source.

730,32404535,Effects of a Virtual Reality Dance Training Program on Kyphosis Angle and Respiratory Parameters in Young Women With Postural Hyperkyphosis: A Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial.,"CONTEXT
Thoracic hyperkyphosis, one of the most common spinal deformities, may lead to undesirable pulmonary outcomes.
OBJECTIVE
To study, the efficacy of virtual reality exercise training on thoracic hyperkyphosis and respiratory parameters in young women.
DESIGN
Randomized clinical trial.
SETTING
Laboratory setting.
PARTICIPANTS AND INTERVENTION
Participants were randomly assigned to one of two 4-week exercise training groups: regular training (RT), which involved stretch and strength training, or virtual reality with RT (VRRT), which involved dance training with the Xbox 360 Kinect® game in addition to the exercises, which the RT group received.
MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES
The authors measured kyphosis angle with a Flexicurve ruler and recorded respiratory parameters (forced vital capacity [FVC] and forced expiratory volume in 1 s [FEV1]) with a spirometer in each participant at baseline and postintervention. Separate 2 × 2 repeated-measure analysis of variances were used to analyze differences between means for kyphosis angle, FEV1, and FVC. Based on the significant interactions between time and group, the paired t test was used to compare the results at baseline and postintervention, and the independent sample t test was used to compare the differences in changes between groups. Level of significance was considered at P < .05 except for paired t test that was adjusted to P < .025 for each variable in 2 groups.
RESULTS
The results showed statistically significant interactions between time and group for kyphosis angle, FEV1, and FVC. Postintervention thoracic kyphosis angle decreased and FVC increased significantly in both groups and FEV1 improved significantly in virtual reality with RT group. The improvements in thoracic kyphosis, FVC, and FEV1 in the virtual reality with RT group were significantly greater (P < .001) than in the RT group.

Dance training with the Xbox 360 Kinect game was an effective therapy in improving thoracic kyphosis angle, FVC, and FEV1 in young women with thoracic hyperkyphosis.",2020,Postintervention thoracic kyphosis angle decreased and FVC increased significantly in both groups and FEV1 improved significantly in virtual reality with RT group.,"['Young Women With Postural Hyperkyphosis', 'young women', 'young women with thoracic hyperkyphosis']","['exercise training groups: regular training (RT), which involved stretch and strength training, or virtual reality with RT (VRRT), which involved dance training with the Xbox 360 Kinect® game in addition to the exercises, which the RT group received', 'virtual reality exercise training', 'Virtual Reality Dance Training Program']","['kyphosis angle with a Flexicurve ruler and recorded respiratory parameters (forced vital capacity [FVC] and forced expiratory volume in 1\xa0s [FEV1', 'thoracic kyphosis angle, FVC, and FEV1', 'Kyphosis Angle and Respiratory Parameters', 'kyphosis angle, FEV1, and FVC', 'thoracic kyphosis, FVC, and FEV1 in the virtual reality', 'FVC', 'thoracic hyperkyphosis and respiratory parameters']","[{'cui': 'C0332239', 'cui_str': 'Young'}, {'cui': 'C0043210', 'cui_str': 'Woman'}, {'cui': 'C0205278', 'cui_str': 'Postural'}, {'cui': 'C0022821', 'cui_str': 'Kyphosis deformity of spine'}, {'cui': 'C0729233', 'cui_str': 'Dissecting aortic aneurysm, thoracic'}]","[{'cui': 'C4279936', 'cui_str': 'Exercise Training'}, {'cui': 'C0439745', 'cui_str': 'Grouped'}, {'cui': 'C0205272', 'cui_str': 'Regular'}, {'cui': 'C0040607', 'cui_str': 'Training Programs'}, {'cui': 'C1314939', 'cui_str': 'Involvement'}, {'cui': 'C0270814', 'cui_str': 'Spastic syndrome'}, {'cui': 'C0872279', 'cui_str': 'Strength Training'}, {'cui': 'C0871582', 'cui_str': 'Virtual Reality'}, {'cui': 'C0010963', 'cui_str': 'Dance'}, {'cui': 'C4319607', 'cui_str': '360'}, {'cui': 'C0332287', 'cui_str': 'With'}, {'cui': 'C0015259', 'cui_str': 'Exercise'}]","[{'cui': 'C0022821', 'cui_str': 'Kyphosis deformity of spine'}, {'cui': 'C0205143', 'cui_str': 'Angular'}, {'cui': 'C0522637', 'cui_str': 'Measuring ruler'}, {'cui': 'C0034869', 'cui_str': 'Records as Topic'}, {'cui': 'C0449381', 'cui_str': 'Observation parameter'}, {'cui': 'C0430511', 'cui_str': 'Vital capacity test'}, {'cui': 'C0016529', 'cui_str': 'Forced expired volume'}, {'cui': 'C0849974', 'cui_str': 'FEV 1'}, {'cui': 'C0729233', 'cui_str': 'Dissecting aortic aneurysm, thoracic'}, {'cui': 'C3714541', 'cui_str': 'Forced vital capacity'}, {'cui': 'C0871582', 'cui_str': 'Virtual Reality'}]",,0.0422235,Postintervention thoracic kyphosis angle decreased and FVC increased significantly in both groups and FEV1 improved significantly in virtual reality with RT group.,"[{'ForeName': 'Sahba', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Taslimipour', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Zahra', 'Initials': 'Z', 'LastName': 'Rojhani-Shirazi', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Ladan', 'Initials': 'L', 'LastName': 'Hemmati', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Iman', 'Initials': 'I', 'LastName': 'Rezaei', 'Affiliation': ''}]",Journal of sport rehabilitation,['10.1123/jsr.2019-0303']
731,32404539,Counteracting effect of verbal ratings of sleepiness on dual task interference.,"The aim of the present study was to demonstrate the effect of verbal ratings on arousal in the electroencephalogram (EEG) and psychomotor vigilance test (PVT) performance. Thirty participants underwent the PVT for 40 min in three experimental conditions: (1) Rating condition, in which they verbally rated subjective sleepiness with Karolinska sleepiness scale, following pure tone sound played every 20 s during PVT, (2) No-rating condition, in which they underwent PVT with the similar sound as the Rating experiment but without the verbal rating task, and (3) Control condition, in which they underwent PVT with a no-sound stimulus and without the verbal rating task. The results show that during the first half of the task epoch, alpha power density was lower in the Rating than in the No-rating condition, while performance was not different between the conditions. During the second half of the task epoch, performance was better in the Non-rating than in the Rating condition, but no difference in the alpha power density. These results suggest that performance deterioration could be masked by the arousal effect of the dual task itself.

732,32404599,Effect of blood insulin level on postprandial hypotension in elderly people.,"OBJECTIVES
The aim of the study is to discuss the effect of postprandial insulin level on blood pressure in elderly patients by comparing the blood pressure, blood glucose, and insulin levels between patients with postprandial hypotension (PPH) and non-PPH over 80 years old during fasting and within 2 h after meal, and observing the changes of parameters in patients with PPH before and after treatment with acarbose.
METHODS AND MATERIALS
Twenty-five PPH patients and 27 non-PPH patients were selected. The blood pressure, blood glucose, and insulin levels during fasting and within 2 h after meal were monitored. Patients with PPH were treated with acarbose. All parameters were checked one week later.
RESULTS
(1) Preprandial blood pressure in PPH group was significantly higher than that in non-PPH group (152.00 ± 15.62 mmHg vs. 136.40 ± 14.12 mmHg, P < 0.05). (2) The maximum decrease of postprandial systolic blood pressure (SBP) in PPH group was significantly increased compared with that of the control group (32.20 ± 13.19 mmHg vs. 9.67 ± 8.38 mmHg, P < 0.05). The maximum increases of postprandial blood glucose and insulin levels were significantly higher in PPH group than in the control group (P < 0.05). (3) After acarbose treatment, the decrease of postprandial SBP in PPH group was significantly reduced compared with that before treatment (22.67 ± 6.98 mmHg vs. 32.60 ± 9.55 mmHg, P < 0.05); the increase of postprandial blood glucose was also significantly reduced in PPH group (2.37 ± 1.63 mmol/L vs. 3.39 ± 1.62 mmol/L, P < 0.05); the increase of postprandial insulin level was reduced significantly in PPH group (12.09 ± 3.96 mU/L vs. 22.33 ± 1.78 mU/L, P < 0.05). (4) There was no correlation between the maximum decrease of postprandial SBP and the maximum increase of blood glucose (r = -0.008, P = 0.961), but the maximum decrease of postprandial SBP was positively correlated with the maximum increase of insulin (r = 0.381, P = 0.032).

734,32405550,A Prospective Randomized Double-blind study of silicone gel plus Herbal Extracts Versus Placebo in Pre-sternal hypertrophic scar prevention and amelioration.,"Objective
Post-surgical hypertrophic scar is more frequently reported in Asians. Many modalities can treat scars but there have not been any publications to define the efficacy of silicone gel plus herbal extracts for scar prevention or amelioration.
Design
48 patients, who underwent median sternotomy were randomized and double-blinded to 2 groups to use topical silicone gel plus herbal extract gel or placebo for 6 months. Patients were treated either with topical silicone gel plus herbal extract gel or control using only placebo for 6 months. The scars were observed by experienced plastic surgeons using the Vancouver scar scale.
Setting
A single tertiary care center at Khon Kaen University.
Paticipants
48 patients who underwent median sternotomy were enrolled in this study. All patients were aged over 18 years. All the wounds were sutured with polyglycolic 4/0 subcuticular suture material and did not receive other scar management before participating in this study.
Intervention
The silicone gel plus herbal extract gel (Bangkok Botanica, Bangkok, Thailand) in semi-liquid form was formulated from 15% Herbal extract (Allium Cepa extract, Centella Asiatica extract, Aloe Vera extract and Paper Mulberry extract), 50% polydemethysiloxane, 30% cyclopentasiloxane and 5% silica. The placebo gel was a composite of water, acrylate, C10-30 alkyl acrylate cross-polymer, polysorbate 20 and fragrance that was similar in color and consistency as that of the active gel and packed in the similar sealed packages.
Main outcome measures
The scar was assessed using the Vancouver scar scale to determine pigmentation, vascularity, pliability and height.
Results
the study showed the silicone gel plus herbal extract gel could improve scar amelioration in height (p = 0.005) and pliability (p < 0.001) when compared to the placebo. The vascularity and pigmentation showed improvement using silicone gel plus herbal extracts but the improvement was not statistically significant.

735,32405570,"Protocol and recruitment results from a 13-week randomized controlled trial comparing the effects of different doses of nitrate-rich beetroot juice on cognition, cerebral blood flow and peripheral vascular function in overweight and obese older people.","Background
Nitrate-rich food can increase NO production and may induce positive effects on brain function. This study examined the feasibility of a randomized clinical trial (RCT) testing the effects of prolonged consumption of incremental doses of dietary nitrate (NO 3 - ) in overweight and obese older participants. Secondary aims tested dose-dependent changes in cognitive, vascular and pulmonary functions and cerebral blood flow (CBF).
Methods
This was a single blind, four-arm parallel RCT conducted in 60 overweight and obese older participants. Eligible participants were randomized to:1) high NO 3 - (140 ml of beetroot juice (BJ) per day, ~800 mg of NO 3 - /day), 2) moderate NO 3 - (70 ml of BJ per day, ~400 mg of NO 3 - /day), 3) low NO 3 - (70 ml on alternate days, ~400 mg of NO 3 - ) or 4) NO 3 - depleted (70 ml on alternate days, ~0.001 mg of NO 3 ). Measurements of cognitive, vascular and pulmonary functions and CBF were conducted at baseline and 13-weeks NO 3 - intake was assessed by six 24-h recalls, and by measuring NO 3 - intake biomarkers. Feasibility was assessed by obtaining qualitative feedback and evaluating trial recruitment, retention, compliance with study visits and measurement protocols.
Results
Participant recruitment started in July 2018 and ended in April 2019. Of all the recruitment strategies that were used, advertisement of the study via Facebook generated the highest response rate. Sixty-two participants consented and were enrolled. Overall, characteristics of included participants matched our recruitment criteria.
Conclusion
The findings from this study provide evidence of the acceptability and feasibility of an intervention investigating the effects of incremental doses of high-nitrate BJ over a prolonged period.

736,32405581,Randomized Controlled Trial of Difelikefalin for Chronic Pruritus in Hemodialysis Patients.,"Introduction
There is an unmet medical need for pruritus associated with chronic kidney disease, a distressing complication characterized by generalized and persistent itch affecting 20% to 40% of patients undergoing hemodialysis. Here we report the results of a phase 2 trial evaluating the efficacy and safety of a novel peripherally restricted kappa opioid receptor agonist, difelikefalin, in adult patients undergoing hemodialysis with pruritus.
Methods
In this study, 174 hemodialysis patients with moderate-to-severe pruritus were randomly assigned to receive difelikefalin (0.5, 1.0, or 1.5 μg/kg) or placebo intravenously thrice weekly after each hemodialysis session for 8 weeks in a double-blind, controlled trial. The primary endpoint was the change from baseline at week 8 in the weekly mean of the 24-hour Worst Itching Intensity Numerical Rating Scale score. The secondary efficacy endpoint was the change in itch-related quality of life measured by the Skindex-10 questionnaire. Other endpoints included safety, sleep quality, and additional measures including the 5-D itch scale.
Results
A significant reduction from baseline in itch intensity scores at week 8 favored all difelikefalin doses combined versus placebo ( P = 0.002). Difelikefalin also showed improvement over placebo in Skindex-10, 5-D itch, and sleep disturbance scores ( P ≤ 0.005).

The efficacy of the widely used albendazole against the soil-transmitted helminth Trichuris trichiura is limited; yet optimal doses, which may provide increased efficacy, have not been thoroughly investigated to date.
Methods
A randomized-controlled trial was conducted in Côte d'Ivoire with preschool-aged children (PSAC), school-aged children (SAC), and adults infected with T. trichiura . Participants were randomly assigned (1:1:1:1) using computer-generated randomization. PSAC were randomized to 200 mg, 400 mg, 600 mg of albendazole or placebo. SAC and adults were randomized to 400 mg, 600 mg, 800 mg of albendazole or placebo. The primary outcome was cure rates (CRs) against trichuriasis. Secondary outcomes were T. trichiura egg reduction rates (ERRs), safety, CRs and ERRs against other soil-transmitted helminths. Outcome assessors and the trial statistician were blinded. Trial registration at ClinicalTrial.gov: NCT03527745.
Findings
111 PSAC, 180 SAC, and 42 adults were randomized and 86, 172, and 35 provided follow-up stool samples, respectively. The highest observed CR among PSAC was 27·8% (95% CI: 9·7%-53·5%) in the 600 mg albendazole treatment arm. The most efficacious arm for SAC was 600 mg of albendazole showing a CR of 25·6% (95% CI: 13·5%-41·2%), and for adults it was 400 mg of albendazole with a CR of 55·6% (95% CI: 21·2%-86·3%). CRs and ERRs did not differ significantly among treatment arms and flat dose-responses were observed. 17·9% and 0·4% of participants reported any adverse event at 3 and 24 h follow-up, respectively.
Interpretation
Albendazole shows low efficacy against T. trichiura in all populations and doses studied, though findings for PSAC and adults should be carefully interpreted as recruitment targets were not met. New drugs, treatment regimens, and combinations are needed in the management of T. trichiura infections.

738,32205226,Lusutrombopag Is Safe and Efficacious for Treatment of Thrombocytopenia in Patients With and Without Hepatocellular Carcinoma.,"BACKGROUND & AIMS
Patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) secondary to chronic liver disease often require invasive procedures but frequently have thrombocytopenia. Lusutrombopag is an agonist of the thrombopoietin receptor that activates platelet production.
METHODS
We performed an integrated analysis of data from 2 phase 3 trials (L-PLUS 1, Japan, October 2013 to May 2014, and L-PLUS 2, global, June 2015 to April 2017) that compared the efficacy and safety of lusutrombopag with placebo in patients with chronic liver disease, with and without HCC. Our analysis included patients with ECOG grades of 0 or 1, Child-Pugh classes A or B, and a platelet count less than 50 × 10 9 /L who were scheduled to undergo invasive procedures in 9 to 14 days. Patients received lusutrombopag (3 mg) or placebo daily for 7 days or fewer before an invasive procedure. Imaging studies assessed treatment-emergent adverse events, including asymptomatic portal vein thrombosis. The primary end point was no requirement for platelet transfusion before the invasive procedure or rescue therapies for bleeding 7 days or fewer after the invasive procedure.
RESULTS
The per-protocol population included 270 patients (95 with HCC). A significantly higher proportion of patients with HCC who received lusutrombopag achieved the primary end point (68.0%) vs patients who received placebo (8.9%) (P < .0001); in patients without HCC, these proportions were 77.0% vs 21.6% (P < .0001). Lusutrombopag reduced the need for platelet transfusions, increased platelet counts for 3 weeks, and reduced the number of bleeding events in patients with and without HCC compared with placebo. Risk of thrombosis was similar to that of placebo.
CONCLUSIONS
Patients with and without HCC receiving lusutrombopag had a reduction in the number of platelet transfusions before invasive procedures compared with patients receiving placebo, with no increase in thrombosis or bleeding.

Atopic dermatitis (AD), a chronic, highly pruritic skin disorder, impairs quality of life (QoL). Janus kinase inhibitors suppress inflammatory and pruritus-associated cytokine signaling in AD.
OBJECTIVE
To report the effects of ruxolitinib (RUX) cream on itch and QoL in AD.
METHODS
A total of 307 adult patients with an Investigator's Global Assessment (score of 2 or 3) and 3% to 20% affected body surface area were randomly assigned for 8 weeks to receive double-blind treatment with RUX (1.5% twice daily, 1.5% once daily, 0.5% once daily, or 0.15% once daily), vehicle twice daily, or triamcinolone cream (0.1% twice daily for 4 weeks then vehicle for 4 weeks). Itch was measured by using the numerical rating scale, and patient QoL was assessed with Skindex-16.
RESULTS
Improvements in itch numerical rating scale and Skindex-16 were observed with RUX cream. Overall, 42.5% of patients who applied 1.5% RUX twice daily experienced minimal clinically important difference in itch within 36 hours of treatment (vehicle, 13.6%; P < .01); near-maximal improvement was observed by week 4. Itch reduction was associated with improved QoL burden (Pearson correlation, 0.67; P < .001). Significant improvements in Skindex-16 overall scores were noted at week 2.

740,31520258,Auricular acupuncture as effective pain relief after episiotomy: a randomized controlled pilot study.,"PURPOSE
Previously, pain treatment following episiotomy has relied on non-steroid anti-inflammatory drugs as analgesics, whose use during breastfeeding remains controversial due of their transfer to the child.
METHODS
This was a pilot randomized parallel single-center study aiming to evaluate the effects of auricular acupuncture on pain relief after episiotomy. The primary outcome was reduction of pain intensity using visual analogue scale (VAS) scores during the first three postpartum days. The patients were allocated to either of the groups by using a heads-tails binary result coin toss method and the allocation was not masked. The study was completed after including 60 healthy women that underwent mediolateral episiotomy performed during vaginal delivery, with 29 receiving acupuncture therapy and 31 not receiving acupuncture therapy for pain relief. Oral analgesic therapy was made available per request for all patients.
RESULTS
This study showed that subjective experience of pain was significantly reduced in the acupuncture group on the second and third postpartum days (P = 0.004, P = 0.005, P = 0.22). There were no adverse effects of acupuncture noted.
CONCLUSIONS
Our findings confirm that auricular acupuncture therapy may be a valuable adjunct to analgesic therapy in patients undergoing episiotomy during vaginal delivery.

741,31802233,A single paravertebral injection via a needle vs. a catheter for the spreading to multiple intercostal levels: a randomized controlled trial.,"PURPOSE
Thoracic paravertebral block (TPVB) provides a unilateral nerve block at multiple intercostal levels allowing injection of a local anesthetic into paravertebral space (PVS) via a needle or catheter. However, the most effective injection method remains unclear. This study compared the real-time spread of ropivacaine between two paravertebral injection methods using thoracoscopy.
METHODS
Thirty-four patients scheduled for thoracoscopic surgery were randomly allocated into the Needle or Catheter groups, and performed transverse in-plane ultrasound-guided TPVB. The Needle group received 20 ml of 0.5% ropivacaine via a needle placed into the lateral edge of PVS; the Catheter group received the same dose of ropivacaine via a catheter inserted 5 cm into PVS. The primary outcome was the spreading pattern of ropivacaine in each group. The secondary outcome was intraoperative vasopressor requirement after paravertebral injection.
RESULTS
In the Needle group, all cases showed ropivacaine spread to multiple intercostal levels, mainly across the ribs. Contrastingly, the Catheter group showed variable spreading patterns; multiple intercostal levels (n = 10) [across the ribs (n = 4), anterolateral aspect of the vertebral bodies (n = 6)] or unobservable spreading (no change; n = 7) (P = 0.007). Vasopressors were required in two and ten cases in the Needle and Catheter groups, respectively (P = 0.010).
CONCLUSION

742,32197956,"Randomized Trial on the Effects of High-Dose Zopiclone on OSA Severity, Upper Airway Physiology, and Alertness.","BACKGROUND
Studies indicate that standard doses of hypnotics reduce or do not change the apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) or pharyngeal muscle activity. A 1-month trial of nightly zopiclone (7.5 mg) modestly reduced the AHI vs baseline without changing other sleep parameters or next-day sleepiness.
RESEARCH QUESTION
This study aimed to determine the effects of high-dose zopiclone (15 mg) on AHI, arousal threshold, genioglossus muscle responsiveness, and next-day alertness in selected people with OSA (low to moderate arousal thresholds without major overnight hypoxemia). We hypothesized that high-dose zopiclone would yield greater increases in arousal threshold and therefore larger reductions in AHI but may come at the expense of increased hypoxemia and next-day impairment.
STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS
Twenty-eight participants (AHI = 29 ± 20 events/h) suspected to have low to moderate arousal thresholds were studied during two in-laboratory polysomnographies, separated by 1 week, with an epiglottic pressure catheter and genioglossus intramuscular electrodes. Participants received 15 mg of zopiclone or placebo at each visit according to a double-blind, randomized, crossover design. Each morning, subjective sleepiness and alertness via a driving simulator task were assessed.
RESULTS
The AHI did not change from placebo to zopiclone (-1.5 events/h; 95% CI, -6.6 to 3.5 events/h; P = .54). Arousal threshold, genioglossus muscle responsiveness, and most other sleep parameters and measures of next-day sleepiness and alertness also did not change with zopiclone.
INTERPRETATION
A single night of treatment with high-dose zopiclone does not systematically reduce the AHI or increase the arousal threshold in selected people with OSA. The mechanisms for these unexpected findings require further investigation.

743,32195715,Does a Hand Strength-Focused Exercise Program Improve Grip Strength in Older Patients With Wrist Fractures Managed Nonoperatively?: A Randomized Controlled Trial.,"OBJECTIVE
Distal radius fractures in the older population significantly impair grip strength. The aim of the study was to investigate whether a hand strength focused exercise program during the period of immobilization for nonoperatively managed distal radius fractures in this population improved grip strength and quality of life.
DESIGN
This is a single-center randomized controlled trial with concealed allocation, assessor blinding, and intention-to-treat analysis. Fifty-two patients older than 60 yrs who experienced distal radius fractures managed nonoperatively with cast immobilization. The intervention group (n = 26) received a home hand strength-focused exercise program from 2 and 6 wks after injury while immobilized in a full short arm cast. The control group (n = 26) performed finger range of motion exercises as per protocol. Primary outcome was grip strength ratio of injured arm compared with uninjured arm. Secondary outcome included functional scores of the 11-item shortened version of the Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand. Outcomes were measured at 2, 6, and 12 wks after injury.
RESULTS
The intervention group significantly improved grip strength ratio at both 6 and 12 wks (6 wks: 40% vs 25%, P = 0.0044, and 12 wks: 81% vs 51%, P = 0.0035). The intervention group improved the 11-item Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand score at 12 wks; however, this was not statistically significant (25 vs 40, P = 0.066).

744,32019428,Sleep for Stroke Management and Recovery Trial (Sleep SMART): Rationale and methods.,"RATIONALE
Obstructive sleep apnea is common among patients with acute ischemic stroke and is associated with reduced functional recovery and an increased risk for recurrent vascular events.
AIMS AND/OR HYPOTHESIS
The Sleep for Stroke Management and Recovery Trial (Sleep SMART) aims to determine whether automatically adjusting continuous positive airway pressure (aCPAP) treatment for obstructive sleep apnea improves clinical outcomes after acute ischemic stroke or high-risk transient ischemic attack.
SAMPLE SIZE ESTIMATE
A total of 3062 randomized subjects for the prevention of recurrent serious vascular events, and among these, 1362 stroke survivors for the recovery outcome.
METHODS AND DESIGN
Sleep SMART is a phase III, multicenter, prospective randomized, open, blinded outcome event assessed controlled trial. Adults with recent acute ischemic stroke/transient ischemic attack and no contraindication to aCPAP are screened for obstructive sleep apnea with a portable sleep apnea test. Subjects with confirmed obstructive sleep apnea but without predominant central sleep apnea proceed to a run-in night of aCPAP. Subjects with use (≥4 h) of aCPAP and without development of significant central apneas are randomized to aCPAP plus usual care or care-as-usual for six months. Telemedicine is used to monitor and facilitate aCPAP adherence remotely.
STUDY OUTCOMES
Two separate primary outcomes: (1) the composite of recurrent acute ischemic stroke, acute coronary syndrome, and all-cause mortality (prevention) and (2) the modified Rankin scale scores (recovery) at six- and three-month post-randomization, respectively.
DISCUSSION
Sleep SMART represents the first large trial to test whether aCPAP for obstructive sleep apnea after stroke/transient ischemic attack reduces recurrent vascular events or death, and improves functional recovery.",2020,Subjects with use (≥4 h) of aCPAP and without development of significant central apneas are randomized to aCPAP plus usual care or care-as-usual for six months.,"['Subjects with use (≥4\u2009h) of aCPAP and without development of significant central apneas', 'Subjects with confirmed obstructive sleep apnea but without predominant central sleep apnea', 'Adults with recent acute ischemic stroke/transient ischemic attack and no contraindication to aCPAP are screened for obstructive sleep apnea with a portable sleep apnea test', '3062 randomized subjects for the prevention of recurrent serious vascular events, and among these, 1362 stroke survivors for the recovery outcome', 'patients with acute ischemic stroke', 'Sleep SMART']","['aCPAP', 'aCPAP plus usual care or care-as-usual for six months', 'Telemedicine', 'automatically adjusting continuous positive airway pressure (aCPAP) treatment']","['obstructive sleep apnea', 'composite of recurrent acute ischemic stroke, acute coronary syndrome, and all-cause mortality (prevention) and (2) the modified Rankin scale scores (recovery']","[{'cui': 'C1947944', 'cui_str': 'Use'}, {'cui': 'C0243107', 'cui_str': 'development'}, {'cui': 'C0750502', 'cui_str': 'Significant'}, {'cui': 'C0520680', 'cui_str': 'Ondine Syndrome'}, {'cui': 'C1456348', 'cui_str': 'Confirm'}, {'cui': 'C0520679', 'cui_str': 'Syndrome, Sleep Apnea, Obstructive'}, {'cui': 'C3887547', 'cui_str': 'Central sleep apnea syndrome (disorder)'}, {'cui': 'C0001675', 'cui_str': 'Adult'}, {'cui': 'C0332185', 'cui_str': 'Recent episode (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0948008', 'cui_str': 'Ischemic stroke (disorder)'}, {'cui': 'C0007787', 'cui_str': 'Brain TIA'}, {'cui': 'C0522473', 'cui_str': 'Contraindication to (contextual qualifier) (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C1305399', 'cui_str': 'Screening intent'}, {'cui': 'C0037315', 'cui_str': 'Sleep Hypopnea'}, {'cui': 'C0392366', 'cui_str': 'Tests (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0199176', 'cui_str': 'Prophylaxis -

745,24628577,"Effect of supplementation with a lipid-based nutrient supplement on the micronutrient status of children aged 6-18 months living in the rural region of Intibucá, Honduras.","BACKGROUND
Lipid-based nutrient supplements (LNS) have been effective in the treatment of acute malnutrition among children. We evaluated the use of LNS supplementation for improving the micronutrient status of young children.
METHODS
A 12-month randomised controlled trial was conducted among children aged 6-18 months living in Intibucá, Honduras. Communities (n = 18) were randomised into clusters matched by poverty indicators (9 intervention, n = 160 and 9 controls, n = 140). Intervention participants received LNS. All children received food vouchers and nutrition education. Primary outcomes included measures of micronutrient status: at baseline, 6 and 12 months' blood were collected for assessment of folate, iron, zinc, riboflavin, and vitamin B12 status; haemoglobin was measured every 3 months; and dietary and anthropometry collected monthly. Longitudinal analyses were based on intent to treat and LNS adherence. Generalised estimating equations were used in the estimation of generalised linear regression models specified for the data.
RESULTS
At 6-month follow-up, children in the intervention group had a lower proportion classified as deficient for B12 (43.6%) compared with the control (67.7%; P = 0.03). The intervention group had a higher mean concentration for folate at 6 months (P = 0.06), and improvements continued through 12 months for folate (P = 0.002) and vitamin A deficiency (P = 0.03).

746,32141343,Comparative study of dulaglutide single-use pen Ateos versus insulin degludec FlexTouch on learning and mock administration time in Japanese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus - a post-hoc analysis.,"Aims: Clinical data have shown that patients with diabetes require shorter training time to use Ateos versus FlexTouch. Using data acquired from a previous study, self-administration procedures that necessitated more time and repetition during mock injection were evaluated. Methods: In this open-label task- and interview-based crossover study, 48 self-injection naïve participants with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) were randomized to 1 of 2 sequences to perform a mock injection of Ateos and FlexTouch into a rubber pad after receiving training. Time needed to conduct mock injection steps (preparation, pre-injection set-up, injection, clean-up), and the number and time needed for repeated steps due to procedural errors, were measured as post-hoc analyses. Results: Mean time for preparation, injection, and clean-up was shorter for Ateos (13, 15, 9 s) versus FlexTouch (96, 53, 36 s). Overall time for administration including repeated steps was 75 s for Ateos and 288 s for FlexTouch. Nine participants repeated procedures due to errors when using Ateos (preparation: 6; pre-injection set-up: 2; injection: 1), and 7 participants when using FlexTouch (preparation: 2; pre-injection set-up: 2; injection: 5). There was 1 repeat per person for Ateos injections versus multiple repeats for FlexTouch injections. Conclusions: Post-hoc analysis demonstrates the time needed for overall administration was shorter for Ateos than FlexTouch, and time for each procedure was shorter or similar for Ateos versus FlexTouch. Ateos was easy for participants with T2DM to learn with fewer repeated steps due to procedural errors, and easy for healthcare professionals to introduce to their patients.",2020,"Mean time for preparation, injection, and clean-up was shorter for Ateos (13, 15, 9 seconds) versus FlexTouch (96, 53, 36 seconds).","['48 self-injection naïve participants with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM', 'patients with diabetes', 'Japanese patients with type 2 diabetes']","['dulaglutide single-use pen Ateos versus insulin degludec FlexTouch', 'FlexTouch', 'mock injection of Ateos and FlexTouch into a rubber pad after receiving training']","['Overall time', 'Mean time for preparation, injection, and clean-up']","[{'cui': 'C0036588', 'cui_str': 'Self'}, {'cui': 'C1272883', 'cui_str': 'Injection'}, {'cui': 'C0332307', 'cui_str': 'Type - attribute'}, {'cui': 'C0011849', 'cui_str': 'Diabetes Mellitus'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C1556094', 'cui_str': 'Japanese'}]","[{'cui': 'C3179549', 'cui_str': 'dulaglutide'}, {'cui': 'C0205171', 'cui_str': 'Singular (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C1947944', 'cui_str': 'Use'}, {'cui': 'C4319659', 'cui_str': 'Pen (unit of presentation)'}, {'cui': 'C3491971', 'cui_str': 'insulin degludec'}, {'cui': 'C0562577', 'cui_str': 'Mocking (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C1272883', 'cui_str': 'Injection'}, {'cui': 'C0035918', 'cui_str': 'Natural Rubber'}, {'cui': 'C0441601', 'cui_str': 'Padding (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0220931', 'cui_str': 'Functional training'}]","[{'cui': 'C0282416', 'cui_str': 'Overall'}, {'cui': 'C1632851', 'cui_str': 'Times'}, {'cui': 'C0444504', 'cui_str': 'Mean (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C1272883', 'cui_str': 'Injection'}, {'cui': 'C0402683', 'cui_str': 'Cleaner'}]",,0.027082,"Mean time for preparation, injection, and clean-up was shorter for Ateos (13, 15, 9 seconds) versus FlexTouch (96, 53, 36 seconds).","[{'ForeName': 'Toshinari', 'Initials': 'T', 'LastName': 'Asakura', 'Affiliation': 'Faculty of Pharmaceutical Sciences, Niigata University of Pharmacy and Applied Life Sciences, Niigata, Japan.'}, {'ForeName': 'Toshinobu', 'Initials': 'T', 'LastName': 'Yamazaki', 'Affiliation': 'Faculty of Pharmaceutical Sciences, Niigata University of Pharmacy and Applied Life Sciences, Niigata, Japan.'}, {'ForeName': 'Zhihong', 'Initials': 'Z', 'LastName': 'Cai', 'Affiliation': 'Statistical Science, Medicines Development Unit-Japan, Eli Lilly Japan K.K, Kobe, Japan.'}, {'ForeName': 'Toshihiko', 'Initials': 'T', 'LastName': 'Aranishi', 'Affiliation': 'Health Outcomes, Health Technology Assessment, Real World Evidence, Medicines Development Unit-Japan, Eli Lilly Japan K.K., Kobe, Japan.'}]",Current medical research and opinion,['10.1080/03007995.2020.1739636']
747,32040077,Perspective-taking influences attentional deployment towards facial expressions of pain: an eye-tracking study.,"Empathetic perspective-taking (PT) may be critical in modulating attention and associated responses to another's pain. However, the differential effects of imagining oneself to be in the pain sufferer's situation (""Self-perspective"") or imagining the negative impacts on the pain sufferer's experience (""Other-perspective"") on attention have not been studied. The effects of observer PT (Self vs Other) and level of facial pain expressiveness (FPE) upon attention to another person's pain was investigated. Fifty-two adults were assigned to 1 of 3 PT conditions; they were instructed to view pairs of pain expressions and neutral faces and either (1) consider their own feelings (Self-perspective), (2) consider the feelings of the person in the picture (Other-perspective), or (3) received no further instructions (Control). Eye movements provided indices of early (probability and duration of first fixation) and later (total gaze duration) attentional deployment. Pain faces were more likely to be fixated upon first. A significant first fixation duration bias towards pain was observed, which increased with increasing levels of FPE, and was higher in the Self-PT than the Control condition. The proportion of total gaze duration on pain faces was higher in both experimental conditions than the Control condition. This effect was moderated by FPE in the Self-PT condition; there was a significant increase from low to high FPE.

748,31952493,The effect of therapeutic drug monitoring of beta-lactam and fluoroquinolones on clinical outcome in critically ill patients: the DOLPHIN trial protocol of a multi-centre randomised controlled trial.,"BACKGROUND
Critically ill patients undergo extensive physiological alterations that will have impact on antibiotic pharmacokinetics. Up to 60% of intensive care unit (ICU) patients meet the pharmacodynamic targets of beta-lactam antibiotics, with only 30% in fluoroquinolones. Not reaching these targets might increase the chance of therapeutic failure, resulting in increased mortality and morbidity, and antibiotic resistance. The DOLPHIN trial was designed to demonstrate the added value of therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) of beta-lactam and fluoroquinolones in critically ill patients in the ICU.
METHODS
A multi-centre, randomised controlled trial (RCT) was designed to assess the efficacy and cost-effectiveness of model-based TDM of beta-lactam and fluoroquinolones. Four hundred fifty patients will be included within 24 months after start of inclusion. Eligible patients will be randomly allocated to either study group: the intervention group (active TDM) or the control group (non-TDM). In the intervention group dose adjustment of the study antibiotics (cefotaxime, ceftazidime, ceftriaxone, cefuroxime, amoxicillin, amoxicillin with clavulanic acid, flucloxacillin, piperacillin with tazobactam, meropenem, and ciprofloxacin) on day 1, 3, and 5 is performed based upon TDM with a Bayesian model. The primary outcome will be ICU length of stay. Other outcomes amongst all survival, disease severity, safety, quality of life after ICU discharge, and cost effectiveness will be included.
DISCUSSION
No trial has investigated the effect of early TDM of beta-lactam and fluoroquinolones on clinical outcome in critically ill patients. The findings from the DOLPHIN trial will possibly lead to new insights in clinical management of critically ill patients receiving antibiotics. In short, to TDM or not to TDM?

749,31576450,Comparison of pelvic floor muscle training isolated and associated with weight loss: a randomized controlled trial.,"PURPOSE
To analyze whether pelvic floor muscle training (PFMT) associated with weight loss (WL) is better than isolated PFMT to provide additional beneficial effects to urinary symptoms in women with MUI.
METHODS
A randomized, simple-blind parallel controlled trial was performed and included women with MUI aged between 40 and 65 years and body mass index between 25 and 40 kg/m 2 . The sample was randomized into two groups: 11 PFMT + WL and 11 PFMT. Data collection was performed in baseline and after interventions. The primary outcome was to investigate the loss of urine. Secondary aim includes PFM pressure and quality of life. PFMT was performed with two sets of eight repetitions in the first 4 weeks, and with three sets of eight repetitions in the final 4 weeks. The weight loss program was based on the calculation of total energy value needs. Data analysis was performed by SPSS 20.0 software and one-way ANCOVA.
RESULTS
22 volunteers participated in the study. There was no intergroup significant difference in post-intervention ICIQ-SF F(1, 19) = 7.115, p = 0.87, partial η 2 = 0.001; manometry F(1, 19) = 0.608, p = 0.44, partial η 2 = 0.003; pad test 1 h F(1, 19) = 0.185, p = 0.67, partial η 2 = 0.01; QoL F(1, 19) = 1.018, p = 0.32, partial η 2 = 0.05; and weight F(1, 19) = 0.251, p = 0.62, partial η 2 = 0.01.

Study population was breast cancer patients who were diagnosed and referred to lymphedema clinic for CDT. Participants (n = 22) were randomized and assigned into either an active laser intervention group or an inactive laser placebo-control group. Active LLLT was administered to participants twice a week at the beginning of each CDT session. Outcome measures included lymphedema symptoms, symptom distress, and limb volume by an infrared perometer. Participants in the active and placebo laser groups were comparable in demographic and clinical predictors of lymphedema. In comparison with the placebo group (83.3%), significantly fewer participants in the active laser group (55.6%) reported more than one lymphedema symptom (p = 0.012) at 12 months post-intervention. Significantly, more patients in the active laser group (44.4%) reported less than two impaired limb mobility symptoms in comparison with the placebo group (33.3%) at 12 months post-intervention (p = 0.017).

Thirty three patients scheduled for elective urologic surgery in general anesthesia in lateral decubitus position were randomized into three groups-PEEP 0, 5 and 10 mbar. EIT recording, arterial blood gas analysis and hemodynamic parameters were captured at three timepoints-before induction (T0), 5 min after lateral positioning (T1) and 90 min after positioning (T2). Dynamic compliance (Cdyn) was measured at T1 and T2. Offline EIT data analysis was performed to calculate EIT derived parameters of ventilation distribution. Patients ventilated with PEEP of 10 mbar had a significantly lower A-a (alveolo arterial) gradient over measurements and symmetrical distribution of ventilation measured by EIT. There was no significant difference in Cdyn, center of ventilation indices and inhomogeneity index between groups. There was no difference of mean arterial pressure, cardiac index and heart rate between groups. Patients with 5 mbar of PEEP had higher stroke volume index compared to 0 and 10 mbar at baseline and over measurements. Nondependent/dependent TV ratio as well as global inhomogeneity index were correlated with A-a gradient. Dynamic compliance showed no correlation to A-a gradient. In our study, a PEEP level of 10 mbar improved alveolar gas exchange without compromising hemodynamic stability in patients mechanically ventilated in the lateral decubitus position. EIT measured parameters may be used to determine optimal ventilation parameters in these patients with inhomogeneous lung mechanics.

752,32202313,Benefits of a transtheoretical model-based program on exercise adherence in older adults with knee osteoarthritis: A cluster randomized controlled trial.,"AIMS
Benefits of a transtheoretical model-based exercise program on exercise adherence (primary outcome) and secondary outcomes (self-efficacy, decisional balance, knee osteoarthritis symptoms, and physical function) were assessed among older adults with knee osteoarthritis.
DESIGN
A two-arm, superiority, assessor-blinded, cluster randomized trial with randomization at the community level.
METHODS
Participants were recruited from 14 communities in Beijing between April - October 2018 (N = 189). The intervention was a 24-week transtheoretical model-based exercise program and the control group underwent a non-theory-based exercise program. Exercise adherence was collected every 4 weeks and secondary outcomes were measured at baseline, 12 weeks, and 24 weeks. An independent t test and repeated-measures ANOVA were the main statistical tests.
RESULTS
Most participants were women (92.5%), married (81.4%), with high-school education (36.0%), with both knees affected (50.3%), and did not make use of a walker (93.8%). There were no significant differences between groups in any of the outcome measures at baseline. Repeated-measures ANOVA indicated that there was a significant difference in the trend of adherence scores between the two groups from 0-24 weeks. The independent t test showed that scores in the intervention group were significantly better than in the control group at 16, 20, and 24 weeks. Improvements in the intervention group were also significantly greater in all secondary outcomes than in the control group.
CONCLUSION
A theory-based exercise program could improve exercise adherence, self-efficacy, decisional balance, knee osteoarthritis symptoms, and physical functioning in older adults with knee osteoarthritis.

753,32193264,Influence of combined vitamin D 3 supplementation and resistance exercise training on musculoskeletal health in older men and women (EXVITD): protocol for a randomised controlled trial.,"INTRODUCTION
Sarcopenia is a progressive loss in muscle mass, strength and function, the adverse consequences of which are severe, affecting quality of life and placing an increasing burden on social and healthcare systems. Vitamin D status is known to be associated with markers of sarcopenia, namely muscle mass, strength and function. Also, resistance exercise training (RET) is currently the only proven intervention to treat sarcopenia. However, very little data exist on the influence of combining the two interventions of vitamin D supplementation and resistance exercise training, although a recent systematic review provides tentative support for the current study's hypothesis that the combined intervention may further improve musculoskeletal function above exercise training alone. The aim of the present study is to determine whether vitamin D 3 supplementation is any more effective in improving musculoskeletal function when combined with RET compared with exercise training alone in older adults.
METHODS AND ANALYSIS
This double-blinded randomised placebo-controlled trial will recruit a target of 127 eligible men and women aged ≥65 years living independently or in sheltered housing within the Birmingham area to two groups: (1) 6 months RET and placebo or (2) 6 months RET and 800 IU/d vitamin D 3 . Measures of muscle power (Nottingham Power Rig), body composition (dual energy X-ray absorptiometry), muscle function (short physical performance battery, timed up and go), falls and fractures as events will be assessed. Assessments will take place at baseline and postintervention, with intermittent monitoring of bone turnover, calcium and vitamin D. The primary outcome will be lower limb extensor power output. Analyses of within-group changes and between-group differences in outcome measures are planned.
ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION
The EXVITD study has ethical approval granted by the Black Country National Health Service Research Ethics Committee (14/WM/1220).

754,32029684,"Fever After Influenza, Diphtheria-Tetanus-Acellular Pertussis, and Pneumococcal Vaccinations.","BACKGROUND
Administering inactivated influenza vaccine (IIV), 13-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV13), and diphtheria-tetanus-acellular pertussis (DTaP) vaccine together has been associated with increased risk for febrile seizure after vaccination. We assessed the effect of administering IIV at a separate visit from PCV13 and DTaP on postvaccination fever.
METHODS
In 2017-2018, children aged 12 to 16 months were randomly assigned to receive study vaccines simultaneously or sequentially. They had 2 study visits 2 weeks apart; nonstudy vaccines were permitted at visit 1. The simultaneous group received PCV13, DTaP, and quadrivalent IIV (IIV4) at visit 1 and no vaccines at visit 2. The sequential group received PCV13 and DTaP at visit 1 and IIV4 at visit 2. Participants were monitored for fever (≥38°C) and antipyretic use during the 8 days after visits.
RESULTS
There were 110 children randomly assigned to the simultaneous group and 111 children to the sequential group; 90% received ≥1 nonstudy vaccine at visit 1. Similar proportions of children experienced fever on days 1 to 2 after visits 1 and 2 combined (simultaneous [8.1%] versus sequential [9.3%]; adjusted relative risk = 0.87 [95% confidence interval 0.36-2.10]). During days 1 to 2 after visit 1, more children in the simultaneous group received antipyretics (37.4% vs 22.4%; P = .020).
CONCLUSIONS
In our study, delaying IIV4 administration by 2 weeks in children receiving DTaP and PCV13 did not reduce fever occurrence after vaccination. Reevaluating this strategy to prevent fever using an IIV4 with a different composition in a future influenza season may be considered.",2020,Similar proportions of children experienced fever on days 1 to 2 after visits 1 and 2 combined (simultaneous [8.1%] versus sequential [9.3%]; adjusted relative risk = 0.87,"['In 2017-2018, children aged 12 to 16 months', '110 children randomly assigned to the simultaneous group and 111 children to the sequential group; 90% received']","['PCV13, DTaP, and quadrivalent IIV (IIV4) at visit 1 and no vaccines at visit 2', 'influenza vaccine (IIV), 13-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV13), and diphtheria-tetanus-acellular pertussis (DTaP) vaccine', '≥1 nonstudy vaccine', 'PCV13 and DTaP', 'Diphtheria-Tetanus-Acellular Pertussis, and Pneumococcal Vaccinations']","['fever occurrence', 'Fever', 'antipyretics']","[{'cui': 'C0008059', 'cui_str': 'Child'}, {'cui': 'C0001792', 'cui_str': 'Elderly'}, {'cui': 'C0439231', 'cui_str': 'month (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C4517536', 'cui_str': '110 (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C1516050', 'cui_str': 'Assigned (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0521115', 'cui_str': 'Simultaneous (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0439745', 'cui_str': 'Grouped (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C4517538', 'cui_str': '111 (qualifier value)'}]","[{'cui': 'C0042210', 'cui_str': 'Vaccines'}, {'cui': 'C0021403', 'cui_str': 'Influenza Vaccines'}, {'cui': 'C1579319', 'cui_str': 'Streptococcus pneumoniae conjugate vaccine'}, {'cui': 'C0535644', 'cui_str': 'DTaP Vaccines'}, {'cui': 'C0012546', 'cui_str': 'Corynebacterium diphtheriae Infection'}, {'cui': 'C0043167', 'cui_str': 'Pertussis'}, {'cui': 'C0419707', 'cui_str': 'Pneumococcal vaccination (procedure)'}]","[{'cui': 'C0015967', 'cui_str': 'Hyperthermia'}, {'cui': 'C2745955', 'cui_str': 'Occurrences (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0003419', 'cui_str': 'Antipyretic Agents'}]",110.0,0.15234,Similar proportions of children experienced fever on days 1 to 2 after visits 1 and 2 combined (simultaneous [8.1%] versus sequential [9.3%]; adjusted relative risk = 0.87,"[{'ForeName': 'Emmanuel B', 'Initials': 'EB', 'LastName': 'Walter', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Pediatrics and walte002@mc.duke.edu.'}, {'ForeName': 'Nicola P', 'Initials': 'NP', 'LastName': 'Klein', 'Affiliation': 'Kaiser Permanente Vaccine Study Center, Kaiser Permanente Northern California, Oakland, California; and.'}, {'ForeName': 'A Patricia', 'Initials': 'AP', 'LastName': 'Wodi', 'Affiliation': 'Immunization Safety Office, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Atlanta, Georgia.'}, {'ForeName': 'Wes', 'Initials': 'W', 'LastName': 'Rountree', 'Affiliation': 'Duke Human Vaccine Institute, School of Medicine, Duke University, Durham, North Carolina.'}, {'ForeName': 'Christopher A', 'Initials': 'CA', 'LastName': 'Todd', 'Affiliation': 'Duke Human Vaccine Institute, School of Medicine, Duke University, Durham, North Carolina.'}, {'ForeName': 'Amy', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Wiesner', 'Affiliation': 'Kaiser Permanente Vaccine Study Center, Kaiser Permanente Northern California, Oakland, California; and.'}, {'ForeName': 'Jonathan', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Duffy', 'Affiliation': 'Immunization Safety Office, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Atlanta, Georgia.'}, {'ForeName': 'Paige L', 'Initials': 'PL', 'LastName': 'Marquez', 'Affiliation': 'Immunization Safety Office, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Atlanta, Georgia.'}, {'ForeName': 'Karen R', 'Initials': 'KR', 'LastName': 'Broder', 'Affiliation': 'Immunization Safety Office, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Atlanta, Georgia.'}]",Pediatrics,['10.1542/peds.2019-1909']
755,32193258,Independent medical evaluation of general practitioners' follow-up of sick-listed patients: a cross-sectional study in Norway.,"OBJECTIVES
The study was designed to examine the sufficiency of general practitioners' (GPs) follow-up of patients on sick leave, assessed by independent medical evaluators.
DESIGN
Cross-sectional study SETTING: Primary health care in the Western part of Norway. The study reuses data from a randomised controlled trial-the Norwegian independent medical evaluation trial (NIME trial).
PARTICIPANTS
The intervention group in the NIME trial: Sick-listed workers having undergone an independent medical evaluation by an experienced GP at 6 months of unremitting sick leave (n=937; 57% women). In the current study, the participants were distributed into six exposure groups defined by gender and main sick leave diagnoses (women/musculoskeletal, men/musculoskeletal, women/mental, men/mental, women/all other diagnoses and men/all other diagnoses).
OUTCOME MEASURE
The independent medical evaluators assessment (yes/no) of the sufficiency of the regular GPs follow-up of their sick-listed patients.
RESULTS
Estimates from generalised linear models demonstrate a robust association between men with mental sick leave diagnoses and insufficient follow-up by their regular GP first 6 months of sick leave (adjusted relative risk (RR)=1.8, 95% CI=1.15-1.68). Compared with the reference group, women with musculoskeletal sick leave diagnoses, this was the only significant finding. Men with musculoskeletal diagnoses (adjusted RR=1.4, 95% CI=0.92-2.09); men with other diagnoses (adjusted RR=1.0, 95% CI=0.58-1.73); women with mental diagnoses (adjusted RR=1.2, 95% CI=0.75-1.77) and women with other diagnoses (adjusted RR=1.3, 95% CI=0.58-1.73).
CONCLUSIONS
Assessment by an independent medical evaluator showed that men with mental sick leave diagnoses may be at risk of insufficient follow-up by their GP. Efforts should be made to clarify unmet needs to initiate relevant actions in healthcare and work life. Avoiding marginalisation in work life is of the utmost importance.

756,32187168,"Transactional Sex and Incident Chlamydia and Gonorrhea Among Black Men Who Have Sex With Men in Atlanta, Georgia.","BACKGROUND
Black men who have sex with men (BMSM) are disproportionately affected by sexually transmitted infections (STI), including chlamydia and gonorrhea. Transactional sex is an hypothesized risk factor for STI acquisition in BMSM.
METHODS
We estimated the association of transactional sex with incident chlamydia/gonococcal infection among BMSM using longitudinal data from a randomized trial in Atlanta (2012-2015). BMSM were eligible for inclusion if they tested human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-antibody-negative and reported both ≥2 male sex partners and any condomless anal sex in the last year. We defined chlamydia/gonorrhea incidence as the first occurrence of either rectal or urogenital chlamydia or gonococcal infections after a negative result at enrollment. We used Poisson regression to estimate the incidence rate (IR) for chlamydia/gonorrhea over 12 months. Incidence rate ratios (IRR) compared estimates by reported experience of transactional sex. Subgroup analyses assessed potential heterogeneity by age and sexual identity.
RESULTS
This analysis included 416 BMSM, of whom 191 (46%) were gay-identified, 146 (42%) reported a history of transactional sex, and 57 (14%) had prevalent chlamydia/gonococcal infection at baseline. Over a median of 1 year of follow-up, an additional 55 men tested laboratory-positive for chlamydia/gonorrhea (IR, 17.3 per 100 person-years). Transactional sex was not associated with chlamydia/gonorrhea incidence overall. However, among gay-identified BMSM, transactional sex was associated with incident chlamydia/gonorrhea (IRR, 2.9; 95% confidence interval, 1.2-6.8).
CONCLUSIONS
Economic and social vulnerabilities may motivate engagement in high-risk sexual behaviors through commodified sex, potentially increasing the burden of STIs among BMSM. In this investigation, the relationship between transactional sex and chlamydia/gonorrhea was not homogenous across BMSM with diverse sexual identities in Atlanta, suggesting that within select sexual networks, transactional sex may drive STI risks.

757,31097414,Effect of a stepped-care intervention delivered by lay health workers on major depressive disorder among primary care patients in Nigeria (STEPCARE): a cluster-randomised controlled trial.,"BACKGROUND
Little is known about how to scale up care for depression in settings where non-physician lay workers constitute the bulk of frontline providers. We aimed to compare a stepped-care intervention package for depression with usual care enhanced by use of the WHO Mental Health Gap Action Programme intervention guide (mhGAP-IG).
METHODS
We did a cluster-randomised trial in primary care clinics in Ibadan, Nigeria. Eligible clinics were those with adequate staffing to provide various 24-h clinical services and with regular physician supervision. Clinics (clusters), anonymised and stratified by local government area, were randomly allocated (1:1) with a computer-generated random number sequence to one of two groups: an intervention group in which patients received a stepped-care intervention (eight sessions of individual problem-solving therapy, with an extra two to four sessions if needed) plus enhanced usual care, and a control group in which patients received enhanced usual care only. Patients from enrolled clinics could participate if they were aged 18 years or older, not pregnant, and had moderate to severe depression (scoring ≥11 on the nine-item patient health questionnaire [PHQ-9]). The primary outcome was the proportion of patients with remission of depression at 12 months (a score of ≤6 on the PHQ-9, with assessors masked to group allocation) in the intention-to-treat population. This trial is registered with the International Standard Randomised Controlled Trials Number registry (ISRCTN46754188) and is completed.
FINDINGS
35 of 97 clinics approached were eligible and agreed to participate, of which 18 were allocated to the intervention group and 17 to the control group. 1178 patients (631 [54%] in the intervention group and 547 [46%] in the control group) were recruited between Dec 2, 2013, and June 29, 2015, among whom 976 (83%) were female and baseline mean PHQ-9 score was 13·7 (SD 2·6). Of the 562 (89%) patients in the intervention group and 473 (86%) in the control group who completed 12-month follow-up, similar proportions in each group had remission of depression (425 [76%] in the intervention group vs 366 [77%] in the control group; adjusted odds ratio 1·0 [95% CI 0·70-1·40]). At 12 months, 17 (3%) deaths, one (<1%) psychotic illness, and one (<1%) case of bipolar disorder in the intervention group, and 16 deaths (3%) and one (<1%) case of bipolar disorder in the control group were recorded. No adverse events were judged to be related to the study procedures.
INTERPRETATION
For patients with moderate to severe depression receiving care from non-physician primary health-care workers in Nigeria, a stepped-care, problem-solving intervention combined with enhanced usual care is similarly effective to enhanced usual care alone. Enhancing usual care with mhGAP-IG might provide simple and affordable approach to scaling up depression care in sub-Saharan Africa.

758,32129892,Myasthenia gravis patient and physician opinions about immunosuppressant reduction.,"INTRODUCTION
To reduce myasthenia gravis (MG) patient risk of immunosuppressant (IS) exposure adverse events (AEs), such as infections and malignancies, and to reduce treatment burden, international guidelines recommend decreasing IS dose in stable MG patients.
METHODS
Online surveys were conducted of self-identified MG patients and MG physician experts about the importance of IS dose reduction for MG patients who achieve prolonged periods of disease stability.
RESULTS
Eighty-four percent of MG patients (n = 283) and 100% of physicians (n = 45) were concerned about long-term IS-associated AEs. Although both groups favored attempting IS reduction, they raised concerns including MG relapse, hospitalization, and uncertainty about the future. Presented with an estimated 12% significant relapse rate with IS dose reduction, 76% of patients would be willing to enroll in a randomized IS dose reduction trial.

759,32162931,Modeling the suicidal behavior cycle: Understanding repeated suicide attempts among individuals with borderline personality disorder and a history of attempting suicide.,"OBJECTIVE
Suicide remains a leading cause of death in the United States, and recent reports have suggested the suicide rate is increasing. One of the most robust predictors of future suicidal behavior is a history of attempting suicide. Despite this, little is known about the factors that reduce the likelihood of reattempting suicide. This study compares theoretically derived suicide risk indicators to determine which factors are most predictive of future suicide attempts.
METHOD
We used data from a randomized, controlled trial comparing 3 forms of dialectical behavior therapy (DBT; Linehan et al., 2015). Participants ( N = 97, mean age = 30.3 years, 100% female, 71% White) met criteria for borderline personality disorder and had repeated and recent self-injurious behavior. Assessments occurred at 4-month intervals throughout 1 year of treatment and 1 year of follow-up. Time-lagged generalized linear mixed models (GLMMs) were used to evaluate relationship satisfaction, emotion dysregulation, and coping styles as predictors of suicide attempts.
RESULTS
Both univariate and multivariate models suggested that higher between-person variance in problem-focused coping and lack of access to emotion regulation strategies were weakly associated with additional suicide attempts over the 2-year study. Within-person variance in the time-lagged predictors was not associated with subsequent suicide attempts.
CONCLUSIONS
Among individuals with a recent suicide attempt, problem-focused coping and specific deficits in emotion regulation may differentiate those likely to reattempt from those who stop suicidal behavior during and after psychotherapy. These results suggest that treatments for recent suicide attempters should target increasing problem-focused coping and decreasing maladaptive emotion regulation skills.

760,32134286,Changes in externalizing and internalizing symptoms among African American female adolescents over 1 year following a mother-daughter sexual health intervention.,"OBJECTIVE
African American female adolescents face disparities compared with White peers in the interrelated areas of mental health symptoms and sexually transmitted infection (STI) acquisition. IMARA (Informed, Motivated, Aware and Responsible about AIDS) is a group-based mother-daughter intervention addressing these factors among African American teenagers. Previous work demonstrated that female adolescents who received IMARA were 43% less likely than controls to evidence a new STI at 1 year. This report aimed to provide the 1st test of IMARA on externalizing and internalizing symptoms and an exploratory analysis of whether symptom improvements were associated with the protective effect of treatment against future STIs.
METHOD
Female African Americans aged 14-18 years ( M = 16; N = 199) were randomly assigned to IMARA or a health promotion control group matched for time and structure. They completed the Youth Self-Report of externalizing and internalizing symptoms at baseline and at 6 and 12 months and were tested for STIs at baseline and 12 months; positive cases were treated. Hierarchical linear modeling tested symptom change over time, including the moderating effects of baseline symptoms.
RESULTS
Among participants who entered with high versus lower externalizing symptoms, those who received IMARA showed a slightly greater decrease in externalizing scores relative to the control ( p = .035). For these youth, symptom improvements appeared to be associated with IMARA's protective effect against new STIs. Treatment was not associated with internalizing symptom change ( p > .05).
CONCLUSION
IMARA shows promise in modestly reducing self-reported externalizing symptoms, although only for participants with high scores at baseline. The possibility that externalizing symptom improvement is linked with reduced STI acquisition warrants future examination.

762,30772827,Adolescent males' responses to blu's fake warnings.,"OBJECTIVE
Blu's 'Something Better' advertising campaign ran in popular print magazines in 2017. The campaign included advertisements with fake warnings conveying positive messages, which mimicked the Food and Drug Administration (FDA)'s warning requirements for electronic cigarette (e-cigarette) advertisements that took effect in 2018. We report adolescent males' recall of these fake warnings and how exposure to fake warnings affected recall of other advertisement components, including the actual warning or health risks, brand and product.
METHODS
Ohio males ages 12-19 years (N = 775; 73.8 % white non-Hispanic) were randomly assigned to view an e-cigarette advertisement with or without a fake warning. Afterward, they were asked what they remembered most about the advertisement. Responses were qualitatively coded. Statistical analyses included survey-weighted descriptive statistics and logistic regression.
RESULTS
Of participants who viewed an e-cigarette advertisement with a fake warning, 27.0 % reported the fake warning was what they remembered most, and 18.8 % repeated the fake warning message. Participants viewing advertisements with a fake warning had lower odds of recalling the actual warning or health risks (OR = 0.29; 95% CI: 0.11 to 0.77) or brand (OR = 0.43; 95% CI: 0.22 to 0.85), compared with participants viewing other e-cigarette advertisements.
CONCLUSIONS
Adolescents viewing an advertisement with a fake warning were less likely to recall the advertisement's actual warning or health risks. Although e-cigarette advertisements now carry large FDA-mandated warnings, this tactic could be used for cigarette advertisements that continue to carry small warnings in the USA. Findings underscore the necessity of tobacco advertisement surveillance and study of advertisements' effects on adolescents.",2019,"Participants viewing advertisements with a fake warning had lower odds of recalling the actual warning or health risks (OR = 0.29; 95% CI: 0.11 to 0.77) or brand (OR = 0.43; 95% CI: 0.22 to 0.85), compared with participants viewing other e-cigarette advertisements.

Pruritus, a common symptom of psoriasis, negatively affects quality of life; however, treatment of lesional skin does not consistently alleviate psoriatic itch.
OBJECTIVE
To examine the effects of serlopitant, an oral, once-daily neurokinin 1 receptor antagonist, for treatment of psoriatic pruritus in a phase 2, randomized clinical trial (NCT03343639).
METHODS
Patients (n = 204) were randomized to receive serlopitant, 5 mg, or placebo daily for 8 weeks. Eligible adult patients had plaque psoriasis for ≥6 months, plaques covering ≤10% of body surface area, pruritus for ≥4 weeks, and Worst Itch Numeric Rating Scale (WI-NRS) score ≥7 at the initial screening.
RESULTS
Participants (54.2% women) had a mean age of 47.5 years and 85.2% were white. Mean baseline WI-NRS scores were 8.3 for serlopitant and 8.1 for placebo. The WI-NRS 4-point response rate at 8 weeks (primary end point) was 33.3% for serlopitant vs 21.1% for placebo (P = .028); at 4 weeks the rates were 20.8% for serlopitant vs 11.5% for placebo (P = .039). Treatment-related adverse events were reported for 4.9% of serlopitant-treated and 4.0% of placebo-treated patients.
LIMITATIONS
This was a phase 2 study with a small study population. Patients with severe psoriasis were excluded.

764,32185745,Repository Corticotropin Injection for Active Rheumatoid Arthritis Despite Aggressive Treatment: A Randomized Controlled Withdrawal Trial.,"INTRODUCTION
The objective of this study was to assess efficacy and safety of repository corticotropin injection (RCI) in subjects with active rheumatoid arthritis (RA) despite treatment with a corticosteroid and one or two disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs).
METHODS
All subjects received open-label RCI (80 U) twice weekly for 12 weeks (part 1); only those with low disease activity [LDA; i.e., Disease Activity Score 28 joint count and erythrocyte sedimentation rate (DAS28-ESR) < 3.2] were randomly assigned to receive either RCI (80 U) or placebo twice weekly during the 12-week double-blind period (part 2). The primary efficacy endpoint was the proportion of subjects who achieved LDA at week 12. Secondary efficacy endpoints included proportions of subjects who maintained LDA during weeks 12 through 24 and achieved Clinical Disease Activity Index (CDAI) ≤ 10 at weeks 12 and 24. Safety was assessed via adverse event reports.
RESULTS
Of the 259 enrolled subjects, 235 completed part 1; 154 subjects (n = 77 each for RCI and placebo) entered part 2, and 127 (RCI, n = 71; placebo, n = 56) completed. At week 12, 163 subjects (62.9%) achieved LDA and 169 (65.3%) achieved CDAI ≤ 10 (both p < 0.0001). At week 24, 47 (61.0%) RCI-treated and 32 (42.1%) placebo-treated subjects maintained LDA (p = 0.019); 66 (85.7%) RCI-treated and 50 (65.8%) placebo-treated subjects maintained CDAI ≤ 10 (p = 0.004). No unexpected safety signals were observed.
CONCLUSIONS
RCI was effective and generally safe in patients with active RA despite corticosteroid/DMARD therapy. By week 12, > 60% of patients achieved LDA, which was maintained with 12 additional weeks of treatment. Most patients who achieved LDA maintained it for 3 months after RCI discontinuation.

In this study, the immunomodulatory impacts of omega 3 fatty acid (ω3FA) supplement were assessed on inflammatory and anti-inflammatory markers in gas station workers in a double-blind placebo-controlled clinical trial. Fifty-three men working in gas stations were treated with ω3FA ( n = 29) or placebo ( n = 24) for 60 days. C-reactive protein, interleukin-12 (IL-12), transforming growth factor β (TGF-β), interferon γ (IFN-γ), tumor necrosis factor α, IL-10, and IL-17 levels were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay method before and after the completion of the trial. The concentrations of IFN-γ and IL-17 were significantly decreased in ω3FA group compared with the placebo group ( P < 0.001). Moreover, the levels of inhibitory cytokines including TGF-β and IL-10 significantly were increased in ω3FA group ( P < 0.001). Overall, ω3FA nutritional supplementation can be useful in reducing inflammatory immune responses and maintaining immune tolerance in people with high exposure to inflammation-inducing factors.

766,32053221,Effect of tongue-strengthening training combined with a tablet personal computer game in healthy adults.,"BACKGROUND
Game-based training has been shown to improve behavioural motor learning in various medical fields including rehabilitation.
OBJECTIVES
This study aimed to investigate the effects of a tablet PC (personal computer) game-based tongue training on tongue strength, thickness and compliance in healthy adults.
METHODS
This study recruited 30 healthy volunteers. Subjects were randomly assigned to two groups (n = 15/group). Group 1 performed game-based tongue training, and group 2 performed tongue resistance training using the Iowa Oral Performance Instrument. Both groups performed the same tongue exercises as follows: frequency (isotonic = 30 times × 3, isometric = 20 seconds × 3), intensity (70% of 1-repeated maximum contraction) and intervention period (5 days for 6 weeks). The primary outcomes were tongue muscle strength and thickness. Secondary outcomes were assessed using a 0-to-10 numerical rating self-report scale that included motivation, interest/fun, physical effort and muscle fatigue/pain.
RESULTS
Both groups showed significant improvement in tongue strength and thickness, but there were no significant differences between the groups after the intervention. The self-report scale numerical rating revealed that group 1 had significantly higher motivation and interest/fun after the exercise than group 2. Group 1 had expended a significantly lower physical effort than group 2. No significant differences were noted between the 2 groups for muscle fatigue/pain.
CONCLUSION
This study showed that both exercises had similar effects on tongue strength and thickness increase in healthy adults, but game-based tongue training was more fun and physically less demanding.",2020,"Both groups showed significant improvement in tongue strength and thickness, but there were no significant differences between the groups after the intervention.","['30 healthy volunteers', 'healthy adults']","['tongue-strengthening\xa0training combined with a tablet personal computer game', 'tablet PC (personal computer) game-based tongue training', 'game-based tongue training, and group 2 performed tongue resistance training using the Iowa Oral Performance Instrument']","['tongue strength and thickness increase', 'tongue strength, thickness, and compliance', 'tongue muscle strength and thickness', 'muscle fatigue/pain', 'tongue strength and thickness', '0-to-10 numerical rating self-report scale that included motivation, interest/fun, physical effort, and muscle fatigue/pain']","[{'cui': 'C1708335', 'cui_str': 'Healthy Participants'}, {'cui': 'C0686750', 'cui_str': 'Well adult (finding)'}]","[{'cui': 'C0040408', 'cui_str': 'Tongue'}, {'cui': 'C0220931', 'cui_str': 'Functional training'}, {'cui': 'C0336789', 'cui_str': 'Combine'}, {'cui': 'C1705223', 'cui_str': 'Tablet'}, {'cui': 'C0162419', 'cui_str': 'Personal Computers'}, {'cui': 'C0178499', 'cui_str': 'Base'}, {'cui': 'C0441865', 'cui_str': 'Group 2 (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0884358', 'cui_str': 'Performed'}, {'cui': 'C0872279', 'cui_str': 'Strength Training'}, {'cui': 'C0022037', 'cui_str': 'Iowa'}, {'cui': 'C4521986', 'cui_str': 'Oral (intended site)'}, {'cui': 'C4551823', 'cui_str': 'instruments'}]","[{'cui': 'C0040408', 'cui_str': 'Tongue'}, {'cui': 'C0205217', 'cui_str': 'Increased (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0009563', 'cui_str': 'Compliance'}, {'cui': 'C0517349', 'cui_str': 'Muscle Strength'}, {'cui': 'C0242979', 'cui_str': 'Muscular Fatigue'}, {'cui': 'C0030193', 'cui_str': 'Pain'}, {'cui': 'C2700446', 'cui_str': 'Self-reported (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0222045'}, {'cui': 'C0332257', 'cui_str': 'Including (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0026605', 'cui_str': 'Motivation'}, {'cui': 'C0031807', 'cui_str': 'Physical Effort'}]",30.0,0.019624,"Both groups showed significant improvement in tongue strength and thickness, but there were no significant differences between the groups after the intervention.","[{'ForeName': 'Na-Kyoung', 'Initials': 'NK', 'LastName': 'Hwang', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Occupational Therapy, Seoul North Municipal Hospital, Seoul, Korea.'}, {'ForeName': 'Min-Ji', 'Initials': 'MJ', 'LastName': 'Kim', 'Affiliation': 'Division of Health Sciences, Department of Dental Hygiene, DongSeo University, Busan, Korea.'}, {'ForeName': 'Gihyoun', 'Initials': 'G', 'LastName': 'Lee', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Physical and Rehabilitation Medicine, Center for Prevention and Rehabilitation, Heart Vascular Stroke Institute, Samsung Medical Center, Sungkyunkwan University School of Medicine, Seoul, Korea.'}, {'ForeName': 'Taehyung', 'Initials': 'T', 'LastName': 'Yoon', 'Affiliation': 'Division of Health Sciences, Department of Occupational Therapy, Dongseo University, Seoul, Korea.'}, {'ForeName': 'Ji-Su', 'Initials': 'JS', 'LastName': 'Park', 'Affiliation': 'Advanced Human Resource Development Project Group for Health Care in Aging Friendly Industry, Dongseo University, Busan, Korea.'}, {'ForeName': 'YoungJin', 'Initials': 'Y', 'LastName': 'Jung', 'Affiliation': 'Advanced Human Resource Development Project Group for Health Care in Aging Friendly Industry, Dongseo University, Busan, Korea.'}]",Journal of oral rehabilitation,['10.1111/joor.12944']

768,31477558,Aspirin as an adjuvant treatment for cancer: feasibility results from the Add-Aspirin randomised trial.,"BACKGROUND
Preclinical, epidemiological, and randomised data indicate that aspirin might prevent tumour development and metastasis, leading to reduced cancer mortality, particularly for gastro-oesophageal and colorectal cancer. Randomised trials evaluating aspirin use after primary radical therapy are ongoing. We present the pre-planned feasibility analysis of the run-in phase of the Add-Aspirin trial to address concerns about toxicity, particularly bleeding after radical treatment for gastro-oesophageal cancer.
METHODS
The Add-Aspirin protocol includes four phase 3 randomised controlled trials evaluating the effect of daily aspirin on recurrence and survival after radical cancer therapy in four tumour cohorts: gastro-oesophageal, colorectal, breast, and prostate cancer. An open-label run-in phase (aspirin 100 mg daily for 8 weeks) precedes double-blind randomisation (for participants aged under 75 years, aspirin 300 mg, aspirin 100 mg, or matched placebo in a 1:1:1 ratio; for patients aged 75 years or older, aspirin 100 mg or matched placebo in a 2:1 ratio). A preplanned analysis of feasibility, including recruitment rate, adherence, and toxicity was performed. The trial is registered with the International Standard Randomised Controlled Trials Number registry (ISRCTN74358648) and remains open to recruitment.
FINDINGS
After 2 years of recruitment (October, 2015, to October, 2017), 3494 participants were registered (115 in the gastro-oesophageal cancer cohort, 950 in the colorectal cancer cohort, 1675 in the breast cancer cohort, and 754 in the prostate cancer cohort); 2719 (85%) of 3194 participants who had finished the run-in period proceeded to randomisation, with rates consistent across tumour cohorts. End of run-in data were available for 2253 patients; 2148 (95%) of the participants took six or seven tablets per week. 11 (0·5%) of the 2253 participants reported grade 3 toxicity during the run-in period, with no upper gastrointestinal bleeding (any grade) in the gastro-oesophageal cancer cohort. The most frequent grade 1-2 toxicity overall was dyspepsia (246 [11%] of 2253 participants).
INTERPRETATION
Aspirin is well-tolerated after radical cancer therapy. Toxicity has been low and there is no evidence of a difference in adherence, acceptance of randomisation, or toxicity between the different cancer cohorts. Trial recruitment continues to determine whether aspirin could offer a potential low cost and well tolerated therapy to improve cancer outcomes.

769,30569038,"A novel nano-iron supplement to safely combat iron deficiency and anaemia in young children: The IHAT-GUT double-blind, randomised, placebo-controlled trial protocol.","Background: Iron deficiency and its associated anaemia (IDA) are the leading forms of micronutrient malnutrition worldwide. Here we describe the rationale and design of the first clinical trial evaluating the efficacy and safety of an innovative nano iron supplement, iron hydroxide adipate tartrate (IHAT), for the treatment of IDA in young children (IHAT-GUT trial). Oral iron is often ineffective due to poor absorption and/or gastrointestinal adverse effects. IHAT is novel since it is effectively absorbed whilst remaining nanoparticulate in the gut, therefore should enable supplementation with fewer symptoms. Methods: IHAT-GUT is a three-arm, double-blind, randomised, placebo-controlled phase II trial conducted in Gambian children 6-35 months of age. The intervention consists of a 12-week supplementation with either IHAT, ferrous sulphate (both at doses bioequivalent to 12.5 mg Fe /day) or placebo. The trial aims to include 705 children with IDA who will be randomly assigned (1:1:1) to each arm. The primary objectives are to test non-inferiority of IHAT in relation to ferrous sulphate at treating IDA, and to test superiority of IHAT in relation to ferrous sulphate and non-inferiority in relation to placebo in terms of diarrhoea incidence and prevalence. Secondary objectives are mechanistic assessments, to test whether IHAT reduces the burden of enteric pathogens, morbidity, and intestinal inflammation, and that it does not cause detrimental changes to the gut microbiome, particularly in relation to Lactobacillaceae , Bifidobacteriaceae and Enterobacteriaceae . Discussion: This trial will test the hypothesis that supplementation with IHAT eliminates iron deficiency and improves haemoglobin levels without inducing gastrointestinal adverse effects. If shown to be the case, this would open the possibility for further testing and use of IHAT as a novel iron source for micronutrient intervention strategies in resource-poor countries, with the ultimate aim to help reduce the IDA global burden.

770,32180164,"Comparative Responses in Lung Function Measurements with Tiotropium in Adolescents and Adults, and Across Asthma Severities: A Post Hoc Analysis.","INTRODUCTION
Airway obstruction is usually assessed by measuring forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV 1 ), forced vital capacity (FVC) and peak expiratory flow (PEF). This post hoc study investigated comparative responses of lung function measurements in adults and adolescents (full analysis set, N = 3873) following treatment with tiotropium Respimat ® .
METHODS
Lung function outcomes were analysed from five phase III trials in adults (≥ 18 years) with symptomatic severe, moderate and mild asthma (PrimoTinA-asthma ® , MezzoTinA-asthma ® and GraziaTinA-asthma ® , respectively), and one phase III trial in adolescents (12-17 years) with symptomatic moderate asthma (RubaTinA-asthma ® ). Changes from baseline versus placebo in FEV 1 , FVC, PEF and FEV 1 /FVC ratio with tiotropium 5 µg or 2.5 µg added to at least stable inhaled corticosteroids at week 24 (week 12 in GraziaTinA-asthma) were analysed.
RESULTS
All lung function measures improved in all studies with tiotropium 5 µg (mean change from baseline versus placebo), including peak FEV 1 (110-185 mL), peak FVC (57-95 mL) and morning PEF (15.8-25.6 L/min). Changes in adolescents were smaller than those in adults, and were statistically significant primarily for FEV 1 and PEF, but not for FVC.
CONCLUSION
Consistent improvements were seen across all lung function measures with the addition of tiotropium to other asthma treatments in adults across all severities, whereas the improvements with tiotropium in adolescents primarily impacted measures of flow rather than lung volume. This may reflect less pronounced airway remodelling and air trapping in adolescents with asthma versus adults.",2020,"All lung function measures improved in all studies with tiotropium 5 µg (mean change from baseline versus placebo), including peak FEV 1 (110-185 mL), peak FVC (57-95 mL) and morning PEF (15.8-25.6 L/min).","['Lung function outcomes were analysed from five phase III trials in adults (≥\u200918\xa0years) with symptomatic severe, moderate and mild asthma (PrimoTinA-asthma ® , MezzoTinA-asthma ® and GraziaTinA-asthma ® , respectively), and one phase III trial in adolescents (12-17\xa0years) with symptomatic moderate asthma (RubaTinA-asthma ® ', 'adolescents with asthma versus adults', 'adults and adolescents (full analysis set, N\u2009=\u20093873) following treatment with', 'Adolescents and Adults, and Across Asthma Severities']","['placebo', 'Tiotropium', 'tiotropium Respimat ® ', 'tiotropium']","['peak FVC', 'All lung function measures', 'forced vital capacity (FVC) and peak expiratory flow (PEF']","[{'cui': 'C0024119', 'cui_str': 'Lung Function Tests'}, {'cui': 'C0585064', 'cui_str': 'Numerical phases (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0439070', 'cui_str': 'III'}, {'cui': 'C0001675', 'cui_str': 'Adult'}, {'cui': 'C0439234', 'cui_str': 'year (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0231220', 'cui_str': 'Symptomatic (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0205082', 'cui_str': 'Severe (severity modifier) (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0205081', 'cui_str': 'Moderate (severity modifier) (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0581124', 'cui_str': 'Mild asthma'}, {'cui': 'C0004096', 'cui_str': 'Asthma, Bronchial'}, {'cui': 'C0205653', 'cui_str': 'Adolescent'}, {'cui': 'C0581125', 'cui_str': 'Moderate asthma'}, {'cui': 'C1524024', 'cui_str': 'analysis'}, {'cui': 'C0036849', 'cui_str': 'Set'}, {'cui': 'C0332282', 'cui_str': 'Following (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0087111', 'cui_str': 'Therapy'}, {'cui': 'C0581122', 'cui_str': 'Asthma severity (regime/therapy)'}]","[{'cui': 'C1696465', 'cui_str': 'placebo'}, {'cui': 'C0213771', 'cui_str': 'tiotropium'}]","[{'cui': 'C0444505', 'cui_str': 'Peak (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0024119', 'cui_str': 'Lung Function Tests'}, {'cui': 'C1879489', 'cui_str': 'Measures (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C3714541', 'cui_str': 'Forced Vital Capacity'}, {'cui': 'C0231800', 'cui_str': 'Exhalation'}]",,0.0693147,"All lung function measures improved in all studies with tiotropium 5 µg (mean change from baseline versus placebo), including peak FEV 1 (110-185 mL), peak FVC (57-95 mL) and morning PEF (15.8-25.6 L/min).","[{'ForeName': 'David M G', 'Initials': 'DMG', 'LastName': 'Halpin', 'Affiliation': 'University of Exeter Medical School, College of Medicine and Health, University of Exeter, Exeter, UK. d.halpin@nhs.net.'}, {'ForeName': 'Eckard H', 'Initials': 'EH', 'LastName': 'Hamelmann', 'Affiliation': 'Evangelisches Klinikum Bethel, Bielefeld, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Peter A', 'Initials': 'PA', 'LastName': 'Frith', 'Affiliation': 'Respiratory Medicine, Flinders University College of Medicine and Public Health, Adelaide, SA, Australia.'}, {'ForeName': 'Petra M', 'Initials': 'PM', 'LastName': 'Moroni-Zentgraf', 'Affiliation': 'Boehringer Ingelheim Pharma GmbH & Co.

771,32173063,[Short term olfactory memory and olfactory function after inhalation anesthetic agents: a randomized clinical trial].,"BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES
This clinical trial aimed to evaluate the effects of two different inhalation anesthetic agents on postoperative olfactory memory and olfactory function in patients who underwent micro laryngeal surgery.
METHODS
This randomized prospective controlled study consisted of 102 consecutive patients with a voice disorder. The patients underwent micro laryngeal surgery for voice disorders under general anesthesia. Patients who did not meet inclusion criteria and/or declined to participate (n=34) were excluded from the study. Patients were divided into two groups. Four patients from Group 1 and four patients from Group 2 were lost to follow-up. Group 1 (n=30) received sevoflurane, and Group 2 (n=30) received desflurane during anesthesia. We compared the results by performing the pre-op and post-op Connecticut Chemosensory Clinical Research Center Olfactory test.
RESULTS
Thirty-three patients (55%) were male and 27 (45%) were female. The mean age was 48.18±13.88 years (range: 19-70 years). Preoperative and postoperative olfactory functions did not show a significant difference within the groups postoperatively (p> 0.05). Preoperative and postoperative olfactory memory showed a significant decrease 3hours after the surgery (p <0.05).

772,30726969,Acipimox Acutely Increases GLP-1 Concentrations in Overweight Subjects and Hypopituitary Patients.,"CONTEXT
Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) is an incretin hormone used therapeutically in type 2 diabetes and obesity. The interplay between ambient free fatty acids (FFAs) and GLP-1 remains unclear. Acipimox suppresses adipose tissue lipolysis via activation of the PUMA-G (also known as HCA2 and GPR109a) receptor.
OBJECTIVE
To investigate whether lowering of serum FFA level with acipimox affects GLP-1 secretion.
DESIGN
Two randomized crossover studies were performed in human subjects. Rat intestine was perfused intra-arterially and intraluminally, and l-cells were incubated with acipimox.
PARTICIPANTS
The participants were healthy overweight subjects and hypopituitary adult patients.
INTERVENTIONS
The overweight participants received acipimox 250 mg 60 minutes before an oral glucose test. The hypopituitary patients received acipimox 250 mg 12, 9, and 2 hours before and during the metabolic study day, when they were studied in the basal state and during a hyperinsulinemic euglycemic clamp.
RESULTS
Acipimox suppressed FFA but did not affect insulin in the clinical trials. In overweight subjects, the GLP-1 increase after the oral glucose tolerance test (area under the curve) was more than doubled [4119 ± 607 pmol/L × min (Acipimox) vs 1973 ± 375 pmol/L × min (control), P = 0.004]. In hypopituitary patients, acipimox improved insulin sensitivity (4.7 ± 0.8 mg glucose/kg/min (Acipimox) vs 3.1 ± 0.5 mg glucose/kg/min (control), P = 0.005], and GLP-1 concentrations increased ~40%. An inverse correlation between FFA and GLP-1 concentrations existed in both trials. In rat intestine, acipimox did not affect GLP-1 secretion, and l-cells did not consistently express the putative receptor for acipimox.
CONCLUSIONS
Acipimox treatment increases systemic GLP-1 levels in both obese subjects and hypopituitary patients. Our in vitro data indicate that the underlying mechanisms are indirect.",2019,"Acipimox suppresses adipose tissue lipolysis via activation of the PUMA-G (also known as HCA2 and GPR109a) receptor.

774,32402650,"Task experience eliminates catecholaminergic effects on inhibitory control - A randomized, double-blind cross-over neurophysiological study.","Catecholaminergic neural transmission plays an important role during the inhibition of prepotent responses. Methylphenidate (MPH) is an important drug that modulates the catecholaminergic system. However, theoretical considerations suggest that the effects of drugs (e.g. MPH) on cognitive control may depend on prior learning effects. Here we investigate this in a conflict-modulated Go/Nogo task and evaluate neurophysiological processes associated with this dynamic using EEG signal decomposition methods and source localization analysis. The behavioral data show that prior learning experiences eliminate effects of MPH on response inhibition processes. On a neurophysiological level, we show that MPH modulates specific processes in medial frontal brain regions. Although MPH seems to consistently modulate neurophysiological processes associated with response inhibition, this is no longer sufficient to modulate behavioral performance once learning or task familiarization processes have taken place. An important consequence of this study finding is that it may be important to adjust MPH dosage depending on learning effects in a specific setting to constantly increase cognitive control functions in that setting. This has important implications for clinical practice, since MPH is the first-line pharmacological therapy in attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Cross-over study designs with constant doses of MPH can mask effects on cognitive functions. The impact of learning needs careful consideration in cross-over study designs examining catecholaminergic drug effects.",2020,"Although MPH seems to consistently modulate neurophysiological processes associated with response inhibition, this is no longer sufficient to modulate behavioral performance once learning or task familiarization processes have taken place.",[],['Methylphenidate (MPH'],"['cognitive control functions', 'cognitive functions', 'catecholaminergic effects']",[],"[{'cui': 'C0025810', 'cui_str': 'Methylphenidate'}]","[{'cui': 'C2587213', 'cui_str': 'Controlled'}, {'cui': 'C0009240', 'cui_str': 'Cognitive Function'}, {'cui': 'C1280500', 'cui_str': 'Effect'}]",,0.0560393,"Although MPH seems to consistently modulate neurophysiological processes associated with response inhibition, this is no longer sufficient to modulate behavioral performance once learning or task familiarization processes have taken place.","[{'ForeName': 'Moritz', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Mückschel', 'Affiliation': 'Cognitive Neurophysiology, Department of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, Faculty of Medicine of the TU Dresden, Schubertstraße 42, D-01309 Dresden, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Veit', 'Initials': 'V', 'LastName': 'Roessner', 'Affiliation': 'Cognitive Neurophysiology, Department of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, Faculty of Medicine of the TU Dresden, Schubertstraße 42, D-01309 Dresden, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Christian', 'Initials': 'C', 'LastName': 'Beste', 'Affiliation': 'Cognitive Neurophysiology, Department of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, Faculty of Medicine of the TU Dresden, Schubertstraße 42, D-01309 Dresden, Germany.

775,32402681,A Randomized Phase II Study of Perioperative Chemotherapy Plus Bevacizumab Versus Postoperative Chemotherapy Plus Bevacizumab in Patients With Upfront Resectable Hepatic Colorectal Metastases.,"INTRODUCTION
Whether patients with resectable colorectal liver metastases (CRLM) gain a survival benefit from perioperative chemotherapy remains controversial. The benefit of including bevacizumab in chemotherapy also remains unclear.
MATERIAL AND METHODS
Seventy-six patients with CRLM were randomly assigned to either 6 cycles of FOLFOX (folinic acid, 5-fluorouracil, and oxaliplatin)/FOLFIRI (folinic acid, 5-fluorouracil, and irinotecan) with bevacizumab before and after surgery or 12 cycles after surgery. Progression-free survival (PFS) was estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method and compared by the log-rank test.
RESULTS
The median PFS of all patients was 37.4 months at 5.4 years follow-up, and the median overall survival (OS) was not reached. The PFS between the perioperative group and the postoperative group did not reveal a statistical difference (P = .280). The OS was significantly better in the perioperative group (hazard ratio [HR], 0.60; 95% confidence interval [CI],) 0.35-1.02; P = .049). In subgroup patients with carcinoembryonic antigens (CEA) ≥ 5 ng/mL or those with over 2 liver metastases, perioperative group had longer OS than postoperative group (CEA: HR, 0.49; 95% CI, 0.25-0.93; P = .030; number of liver metastases: HR, 0.55; 95% CI, 0.30-0.99; P = .049). The largest liver metastases size, disease-free interval, and sidedness did not affect PFS or OS. There was no difference between the 2 groups in postoperative complications with bevacizumab or adverse events during chemotherapy.
CONCLUSIONS
In patients with resectable CRLMs, perioperative chemotherapy had no effect on PFS, but improved OS.

776,32167864,Prognostic Value of Tumor Deposits for Disease-Free Survival in Patients With Stage III Colon Cancer: A Post Hoc Analysis of the IDEA France Phase III Trial (PRODIGE-GERCOR).,"PATIENTS AND METHODS
A post hoc analysis of all pathologic reports from patients with stage III CC included in the IDEA France phase III study (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT00958737) investigating the duration of adjuvant fluorouracil, leucovorin, and oxaliplatin or capecitabine and oxaliplatin therapy (3 v 6 months) was performed. The primary objective was to determine the prognostic impact of TD on disease-free survival (DFS). The effect of the addition of TD to LNM count on pN restaging was also evaluated. A multivariable analysis was performed to establish the association between TD and DFS.
RESULTS
Of 1,942 patients, 184 (9.5%) had TDs. The pN1a/b and pN1c populations showed similar DFS. TD-positive patients had worse prognosis compared with TD-negative patients, with 3-year DFS rates of 65.6% (95% CI, 58.0% to 72.1%) and 74.7% (95% CI, 72.6% to 76.7%; P = .0079), respectively. On multivariable analysis, TDs were associated with a higher risk of recurrence or death (hazard ratio [HR], 1.36; P = .0201). Other adverse factors included pT4 and/or pN2 disease (HR, 2.21; P < .001), the 3 months of adjuvant treatment (HR, 1.29; P = .0029), tumor obstruction (HR, 1.28; P = .0233), and male sex (HR, 1.24; P = .0151). Patients restaged as having pN2 disease (n = 35, 2.3%) had similar DFS as patients initially classified as pN2.

The presence of TDs is an independent prognostic factor for DFS in patients with stage III CC. The addition of TD to LNM may help to better define the duration of adjuvant therapy.",2020,"Other adverse factors included pT4 and/or pN2 disease (HR, 2.21; P < .001), the 3 months of adjuvant treatment (HR, 1.29;

777,32402684,A randomized controlled trial comparing oral and intravenous iron supplementation after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass surgery.,"BACKGROUND
Iron deficiency (ID) is one of the most common postoperative deficiencies that may develop after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB). The optimal mode of treatment is uncertain.
AIM
To compare the efficacy of oral ferrous fumarate (FF), oral ferrous gluconate (FG), and a single intravenous infusion of ferric carboxymaltose (FCM) in women with ID after RYGB.
METHODS
Multicenter randomized controlled trial including 120 women with a serum ferritin <20 μg/l during follow-up after RYGB. They were randomized into three groups: 41 patients were treated with FF 200 mg three times a day (total daily dose: 195 mg elemental iron), 39 received FG 695 mg twice a day (total daily dose: 160 mg elemental iron) for three months, and 39 patients were treated with a single intravenous dose of FCM (1000 mg elemental iron). Serum ferritin levels were measured at six weeks, and three, six and twelve months after the start of supplementation.
RESULTS
At three months, persistence of ID was observed in 29.4% and 42.4% of the patients treated with FF and FG, respectively, but in none of those treated with FCM (p < 0.001). Over the next nine months, recurrence of ID was observed in 56.5% of patients treated with FF, in 52.9% treated with FG, and in 27.8% of those treated with FCM. Adverse effects were most common during oral treatment.
CONCLUSION
In women developing ID after RYGB, a single dose of intravenous FCM is more effective and better tolerated than the standard treatment with either FF or FG.

778,32171499,[Comparison between erector spinal plane block and epidural block techniques for postoperative analgesia in open cholecystectomies: a randomized clinical trial].,"INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES
Blockade of the Erector Spinal Muscle (ESP block) is a relatively new block, initially described for chronic thoracic pain analgesia, but it has already been described for anesthesia and analgesia in thoracic surgical procedures and, more recently, for high abdominal surgeries. The aim of the study was to compare two techniques, ESP Block and Epidural block with morphine and local anesthetic for postoperative analgesia of open cholecystectomy surgeries.
METHODS
Controlled single-blind randomized clinical trial with 31 patients (ESP block, n = 15; Epidural, n = 16), of both genders, ages between 27 and 77 years. The ESP block was performed at the T8 level with injection of 20 mL of 0.5% ropivacaine bilaterally. The epidural block was performed at the T8-T9 space with 20 mL of 0.5% ropivacaine and 1 mg of morphine.
RESULTS
The ESP block group presented higher mean Numeric Pain Scale (NPS) values for pain in the up to 2 hour (p = 0.001) and in the 24 hour (p = 0.001) assessments. The ESP block group had a three-fold increased risk (43.7% vs. 13.3%) of rescue opioid use in the 24 postoperative hours when compared to the epidural group (RR = 3.72, 95% CI: 0.91 to 15.31, p = 0.046).
CONCLUSION
ESP block did not prove to be an effective technique for postoperative analgesia of open cholecystectomy, at the doses performed in this study, having required more use of rescue opioid, and without differences in NPS. More comprehensive studies are required to assess the efficacy of ESP block for the visceral and abdominal somatic component, considering the specific blockade level.",2020,"CONCLUSION

779,32174573,Evaluation of Scheimpflug imaging system as an added tool in improving the accuracy of reference marking (as compared to the slit lamp marking system) for toric intraocular lens implantation.,"Purpose
To assess the role of Scheimpflug imaging in improving the accuracy of reference marking for toric IOL implantation.
Methods
In this prospective, randomized, clinical trial all patients with cataract and pre-existing significant regular corneal astigmatism, who required implantation of a toric IOL were included in the study, and patients with any ocular pathology or abnormality were excluded. Patients were divided into two groups: For one group of patients, Group I (GI), reference marking was finalized using slit lamp only, and for the second group, Group II (GII), after slit lamp marking, the reference marks were checked using Goniometer of Scheimpflug imaging. The primary outcome was to determine the axis of toric intraocular lens (IOL) postoperatively (within 1 hour) and compare it with the desired axis of placement.
Results
We found a statistically significant difference in the two groups (P < 0.001) suggesting Group II (4 step technique) is better than Group I (3 step technique).
Conclusion

780,32174580,Surgically induced astigmatism and refractive outcomes following phacotrabeculectomy.,"Purpose
To objectively evaluate surgically induced astigmatism (SIA) after phacotrabeculectomy using keratometry and topography and to compare the magnitude of SIA and the refractive outcomes of single-site and twin-site phacotrabeculectomies.
Methods
Forty prospective subjects were enrolled in the study and were randomized into single-site and twin-site cohorts. SIA was objectively assessed using keratometry and Orbscan before and at three months after surgery. For both cohorts, the changes in SIA were assessed using power vector analysis compared at the third month after surgery.
Results
Each cohort consisted of 20 eyes. The preoperative parameters and postoperative IOP were comparable and similar, respectively, in both the cohorts (P = 0.1). Majority of the patients in both the cohorts had preoperative against-the-rule (ATR) astigmatism. The median change in SIA at the three-month postoperative visit was similar in both the cohorts, with a small increase in ATR astigmatism. Although the SIA change measured by keratometry in the J0 component was similar in both the groups (P = 0.54), that of J45 was significantly different (P = 0.01). However, the median change in SIA was similar in both the groups for both the J0 (P = 0.52) and J45 components (P = 0.94) when measured by Orbscan. The SIA in both the groups measured with keratometry (P = 0.62) and topography (P = 0.52) were clinically and statistically similar. In both the groups, the refraction was similar at 1 month and 3 months.
Conclusion
The SIA as measured with keratometry and topography was similar in the single-site and twin-site phacotrabeculectomy cohorts at the end of 3-months. The postoperative refraction was stabilized in 1-month in both the groups.",2020,The SIA in both the groups measured with keratometry (P = 0.62) and topography (P = 0.52) were clinically and statistically similar.,['Methods\n\n\nForty prospective subjects were enrolled in the study and were randomized into single-site and twin-site cohorts'],['phacotrabeculectomy'],"['SIA change measured by keratometry in the J0 component', 'preoperative parameters and postoperative IOP', 'median change in SIA', 'postoperative refraction', 'ATR astigmatism']","[{'cui': 'C0025663', 'cui_str': 'Methods'}, {'cui': 'C0557651', 'cui_str': 'Study (environment)'}, {'cui': 'C0205171', 'cui_str': 'Singular (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0205145', 'cui_str': 'Site (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0205173', 'cui_str': 'Double (qualifier value)'}]","[{'cui': 'C1167708', 'cui_str': 'Phacotrabeculectomy'}]","[{'cui': 'C0392747', 'cui_str': 'Altered (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C1879489', 'cui_str': 'Measures (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0430885', 'cui_str': 'Keratometry (procedure)'}, {'cui': 'C0449432', 'cui_str': 'Component (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0445204', 'cui_str': 'Preoperative (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0449381', 'cui_str': 'Observation parameter'}, {'cui': 'C0032790', 'cui_str': 'Postoperative Period'}, {'cui': 'C2939193', 'cui_str': 'Median (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0443172', 'cui_str': 'State changes'}, {'cui': 'C0430943', 'cui_str': 'Refraction'}, {'cui': 'C1720245', 'cui_str': 'Against-the-rule astigmatism'}]",40.0,0.0466958,The SIA in both the groups measured with keratometry (P = 0.62) and topography (P = 0.52) were clinically and statistically similar.,"[{'ForeName': 'Sirisha', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Senthil', 'Affiliation': 'VST Glaucoma Center, L V Prasad Eye Institute, Banjara Hills, Hyderabad, Telangana, India.'}, {'ForeName': 'Sanket', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Deshmukh', 'Affiliation': 'GMRV Campus, L V Prasad Eye Institute, Visakhapatnam, Andhra Pradesh, India.'}, {'ForeName': 'Kiranmaye', 'Initials': 'K', 'LastName': 'Turaga', 'Affiliation': 'GMRV Campus, L V Prasad Eye Institute, Visakhapatnam, Andhra Pradesh, India.'}, {'ForeName': 'Veerendranath', 'Initials': 'V', 'LastName': 'Pesala', 'Affiliation': 'Brien Holden Institute of Optometry and Vision Sciences, L V Prasad Eye Institute, Banjara Hills, Hyderabad, Telangana, India.'}, {'ForeName': 'Praveen K', 'Initials': 'PK', 'LastName': 'Bandela', 'Affiliation': 'Brien Holden Institute of Optometry and Vision Sciences, L V Prasad Eye Institute, Banjara Hills, Hyderabad, Telangana, India.'}, {'ForeName': 'Jonnadula', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Ganesh', 'Affiliation': 'VST Glaucoma Center, L V Prasad Eye Institute, Banjara Hills, Hyderabad, Telangana, India.'}, {'ForeName': 'Chandrasekhar', 'Initials': 'C', 'LastName': 'Garudadri', 'Affiliation': 'VST Glaucoma Center, L V Prasad Eye Institute, Banjara Hills, Hyderabad, Telangana, India.'}, {'ForeName': 'Shrikant', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Bharadwaj', 'Affiliation': 'VST Glaucoma Center, L V Prasad Eye Institute, Banjara Hills, Hyderabad, Telangana, India.'}]",Indian journal of ophthalmology,['10.4103/ijo.IJO_588_19']
781,32174581,Intraoperative injection versus sponge-applied mitomycin C during trabeculectomy: One-year study.,"Purpose
To determine the safety and efficacy of mitomycin C (MMC) injection versus sponge during trabeculectomy.
Methods
It is a prospective analysis of patients who underwent trabeculectomy with MMC and followed up for 1 year, divided into two groups, namely, group 1- injection (n = 21), group 2-> sponge (n = 21). The same concentration of MMC was used for both groups. Inclusion criteria were trabeculectomies with MMC for intraocular pressure (IOP) control in eyes with glaucoma (primary + secondary) with a follow-up of 1 year.
Results
Mean preoperative IOP in group 1 was 29.00 ± 11.92 mmHg and group 2 was 25.87 ± 11.09 mmHg, which reduced to 12.19 ± 4.03 and 15.56 ± 10.72 mmHg at final visit with P value of 0.0002 and 0.001, respectively. Mean preoperative number of antiglaucoma medications was 2.4 ± 0.87 in group 1 and 2.3 ± 0.96 in group 2, which reduced to 0.38 ± 0.5 and 0.91 ± 0.85 with P value of 0.001 and 0.0003, respectively. The complete success rate was 52.4% in the injection group and 26.1% in the sponge group at end of 1 year. Overall, success rate (complete + qualified) was 90.5% and 87% in group 1 and group 2 at final visit. All major complications were encountered in sponge group. 1 (11.1%) patient developed choroidal detachment and one had malignant glaucoma which got resolved by medical management. 33.3% cases had encapsulated bleb which received bleb needling. 44.4% cases underwent Argon laser suture lysis postoperatively.

782,32173916,"Efficacy of guselkumab in a subpopulation with pustulotic arthro-osteitis through week 52: an exploratory analysis of a phase 3, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study in Japanese patients with palmoplantar pustulosis.","BACKGROUND
Previous studies of guselkumab have demonstrated clinical benefits in patients with plaque-type psoriasis, generalized pustular psoriasis, erythrodermic psoriasis and palmoplantar pustulosis (PPP).
OBJECTIVE
The aim of this exploratory analysis of a double-blind, multicenter, placebo-controlled, phase 3 study in Japanese patients with PPP was to evaluate the efficacy of guselkumab in the subset of patients with pustulotic arthro-osteitis (PAO).
METHODS
Patients were randomized to receive guselkumab 100 or 200 mg at weeks 0, 4, 12 and every 8 weeks, or placebo with cross-over to guselkumab 100 or 200 mg at week 16 (placebo group). Efficacy endpoints were changes from baseline in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) score, EuroQOL-5 dimensions (EQ-5D) index score, EQ-5D pain/discomfort dimension score and C-reactive protein (CRP, mg/L) level in all PAO patients through week 52. Data from both guselkumab groups were combined and presented as results for a single overall guselkumab group.
RESULTS
Among 159 patients with PPP, 66 with PAO were randomized across treatment groups. For patients with MRI data for all regions assessed, the proportion of patients in the guselkumab group with PAO characterized as severe decreased from 23.8% (10/42) at baseline to 5.4% (2/42) at week 52. The mean (SD) change from baseline at week 52 in EQ-5D index score was 0.20 (0.17) among PPP patients with PAO and 0.15 (0.17) among those without PAO in the guselkumab group. Among all PAO patients, the proportions with an EQ-5D pain/discomfort dimension score of no or slight pain/discomfort in the guselkumab group increased from baseline to week 52 [33.3% (7/21) vs. 87.5% (35/40)]. The mean (SD) CRP levels decreased in all PAO patients in the guselkumab group at week 52 compared to baseline [-1.71 (8.16) mg/L].

783,30298608,Benefit of Early versus Deferred Antiretroviral Therapy on Progression of Liver Fibrosis among People with HIV in the START Randomized Trial.,"The role of antiretroviral therapy (ART) in reducing or contributing to liver fibrosis in persons with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) is unclear. We evaluated participants in the Strategic Timing of AntiRetroviral Treatment (START) trial for liver fibrosis using the AST to Platelet Ratio Index (APRI) and Fibrosis-4 Index (FIB-4), and assessed for a benefit of early versus delayed ART on liver fibrosis progression. ART-naïve persons with high CD4 counts (>500 cells/µL) from 222 clinical sites in 35 countries were randomized to receive ART either at study enrollment (immediate treatment arm) or when their CD4 count fell below 350 cells/µL (deferred treatment arm). The following outcomes were evaluated: fibrosis (APRI > 0.5 or FIB-4 > 1.45), significant fibrosis (APRI > 1.5 or FIB-4 > 3.25), hepatic flare, and resolution of elevated APRI and FIB-4 scores. Of the 4,684 enrolled into the START study, 104 did not have APRI or FIB-4 results and were excluded. Among 4,580 participants (2,273 immediate treatment; 2,307 deferred treatment), the median age was 36 years, 26.9% were female, and 30.4% were black. Three percent had an alcoholism or substance abuse history, 6.4% had hepatitis B and/or C, and 1.1% had significant fibrosis at baseline. The median CD4 count was 651, and 5.3% had HIV RNA ≤ 200. Immediate arm participants were at lower risk of developing increased fibrosis scores than deferred arm participants (hazard ratio [HR] = 0.66; 95% confidence interval [CI] = 0.57-0.78; P < 0.001) and more likely to have resolution of elevated baseline scores (HR 1.6; 95% CI 1.3-1.9; P < 0.001).

784,32072695,"Orally administered mixed carotenoids protect human skin against ultraviolet A-induced skin pigmentation: A double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized clinical trial.","BACKGROUND
Photoprotection of human skin is determined as the capacity of sunscreens to prevent ultraviolet (UV) B radiation-induced erythema and UVA radiation-induced pigmentation. It is unequivocal that, in addition to sunscreens, oral supplementation with carotenoids can protect human skin against UVB radiation-induced erythema. It is not known if this is also the case for UVA radiation-induced pigmentation.
OBJECTIVE
To clinically evaluate the photoprotective effects of daily supplementation with carotenoids against UVA radiation-induced pigmentation.
METHODS
In this double-blind, placebo-controlled trial, 60 subjects (Fitzpatrick types II-IV) were randomized to receive Nutrilite™ Multi Carotene supplement or placebo for 12 weeks. UVB-induced minimal erythemal dose (MED), UVA-induced minimal persistent pigmentation dose (MPPD) and skin carotenoid levels were measured at baseline, 4, 8, and 12 weeks of intervention. Skin color was evaluated by expert clinical graders and by colorimetry. Carotenoid levels in the skin were measured by the Biozoom ® device.
RESULTS
In the intervention group, a significant increase in comparison with the placebo group was observed in (a) skin carotenoid levels, (b) UVB-induced MED, and (c) UVA-induced MPPD values obtained by colorimetry.
CONCLUSION

785,32167664,First-line crizotinib versus platinum-pemetrexed chemotherapy in patients with advanced ROS1-rearranged non-small-cell lung cancer.,"OBJECTIVES
Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved crizotinib for advanced ROS1-rearranged (ROS1+) non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients due to a single-arm study PROFILE 1001. However, there is no direct comparison between crizotinib and platinum-pemetrexed chemotherapy.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
Clinical data of advanced ROS1+NSCLC patients treated with first-line crizotinib or platinum-pemetrexed chemotherapy between August 2010 and December 2017 were analyzed.
RESULTS
Seventy-seven patients were eligible, including 30 (39.0%) in the crizotinib group and 47 (61.0%) in the platinum-pemetrexed chemotherapy group. The median follow-up was 28.1 months (95% confidence interval [CI]: 19.2-39.0). The objective response rate (ORR) of crizotinib (86.7%, 95% CI: 73.3-96.7) was higher than that of platinum-pemetrexed chemotherapy (44.7%, 95% CI: 29.8-57.4, P < .001). The disease control rate (DCR) was 96.7% (95% CI: 90.0-100) in the crizotinib group and 85.1% (95% CI: 74.5-95.7) in the chemotherapy group (P = .140). Significantly longer progression-free survival (PFS) was observed in the patients treated with crizotinib (18.4 months, 95% CI: 6.4-30.3) versus platinum-pemetrexed chemotherapy (8.6 months, 95% CI: 6.9-10.3, P < .001). Overall survival (OS) was also compared between the two groups and no significant difference was seen (Not reach vs 28.4 months [95% CI: 20.7-36.0], P = .176). Notably, a total of 37 patients have treatment crossover after the failure of first-line treatment. Among those patients, difference in OS was not statistically significant between seven patients who have given first-line crizotinib (38.6 months, 95% CI: 0-81.0) and 30 patients who have given platinum-pemetrexed chemotherapy initially (32.8 months, 95% CI: 11.9-53.8, P = .805).

786,31618706,A randomised controlled trial of blood pressure self-monitoring in the management of hypertensive pregnancy. OPTIMUM-BP: A feasibility trial.,"OBJECTIVE
To assess the feasibility of a blood pressure self-monitoring intervention for managing pregnancy hypertension.
STUDY DESIGN
OPTIMUM-BP was an unmasked randomised controlled trial comparing a self-monitoring of blood pressure (SMBP) intervention versus usual care for the management of pregnancy hypertension. Women with chronic (CH) or gestational hypertension (GH) from 4 UK centres were randomised (2:1) intervention to control. Self-monitoring involved daily home blood pressure (BP) measurements, with recording via study diary or telemonitoring. Clinicians were invited to use the home readings in clinical and antihypertensive titration decisions.
MAIN OUTCOMES
The primary outcomes were recruitment, retention, adherence and persistence with the intervention.
RESULTS
Women from four UK centres were randomised: 158/222 (71%) of those approached agreed, comprising: 86 women with chronic hypertension (55 SMBP, 31 control) and 72 with gestational hypertension (49 SMBP, 23 control) of whom outcome data were available from 154 (97%) and were included in the analysis. The median (IQR) number of days with home BP readings per week were 5.5 (3.1-6.5) for those with chronic hypertension and 6.1 (4.5-6.7) with gestational hypertension. Participants persisted with the intervention for 80% or more of their time from enrolment until delivery in 86% (43/50) and 76% (38/49) of those with chronic and gestational hypertension respectively.

787,32162214,Cost-Effectiveness of IncobotulinumtoxinA in the Treatment of Sialorrhea in Patients with Various Neurological Conditions.,"INTRODUCTION
Sialorrhea is a common and debilitating symptom associated with neurological conditions, which can result in considerable physical and psychosocial complications. In Australia, management options are limited and further impeded by the lack of approved treatments. Whilst there is emerging evidence for the efficacy and tolerability of botulinum toxin (BoNT) for the treatment of sialorrhea in patients with neurological conditions, the cost-effectiveness of the treatment is yet to be established.
OBJECTIVES
To evaluate the cost-effectiveness of incobotulinumtoxinA for the treatment of chronic troublesome sialorrhea caused by various neurological conditions from the Australian healthcare perspective.
METHODS
A Markov state transition model was developed to perform a cost-utility analysis comparing incobotulinumtoxinA with standard of care (SoC). The model consisted of a hypothetical cohort of patients transiting between three severity-based health states, defined according to the Drooling Severity and Frequency Scale (DSFS), in 16-weekly cycles over 5 years. All clinical and utility inputs were sourced from a single placebo-controlled randomised clinical trial. Only direct healthcare costs were considered, and potential indirect costs such as carer's time and lost productivity were ignored. The primary outcome measure was the incremental cost per quality-adjusted life-year (QALY). Univariate and probabilistic sensitivity analyses were conducted.
RESULTS
The model demonstrated that proportionally more patients spent time in less severe sialorrhea health states in the incobotulinumtoxinA arm. For example, over the 5-year period, patients receiving incobotulinumtoxinA were estimated to spend 1.6 years with minimal or no sialorrhea, while no patients achieved this level of improvement under SoC. IncobotulinumtoxinA was shown to have an incremental cost per QALY gained of A$23,445 when compared with SoC.

788,32163578,Serum bicarbonate and cardiovascular events in hypertensive adults: results from the Systolic Blood Pressure Intervention Trial.,"BACKGROUND
Low serum bicarbonate level is associated with increased mortality, but its role as a predictor of cardiovascular disease (CVD) is unclear. This study evaluates the association between serum bicarbonate concentration and CVD and whether the effect of intensive blood pressure (BP) lowering on CVD outcomes is modified by serum bicarbonate level.
METHODS
The Systolic Blood Pressure Intervention Trial (SPRINT) randomized participants to a systolic BP target <120 mmHg (intensive treatment) or <140 mmHg (standard treatment). The primary CVD outcome was a composite of nonfatal myocardial infarction (MI), acute coronary syndrome not resulting in MI, stroke, acute decompensated heart failure and CVD death. Cox proportional hazards models adjusted for demographic, clinical and laboratory characteristics were used to evaluate the association of interest in 9334 SPRINT participants (ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT01206062).
RESULTS
Over a median follow-up of 3.33 years (interquartile range 2.87-3.87 years), 618 (6.6%) participants experienced a primary CVD outcome. Participants with serum bicarbonate <22 mEq/L had a significantly higher risk of the primary CVD outcome (hazard ratio 1.54; 95% confidence interval 1.11-2.14, P = 0.01), compared with participants with bicarbonate 22-26 mEq/L. The magnitude of the CVD risk reduction with intensive BP lowering was similar across bicarbonate strata (P-value for interaction = 0.97).

789,32091536,Association of Black Race With Early Recurrence After Minor Ischemic Stroke or Transient Ischemic Attack: Secondary Analysis of the POINT Randomized Clinical Trial.,"Importance
Stroke incidence is higher among black than white individuals in the United States. It is unclear whether black individuals have a higher risk of stroke recurrence after a minor ischemic stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA), a high-risk setting in which focused preventive efforts can be effective.
Objective
To examine the association between black race and early ischemic stroke recurrence.
Design, Setting, and Participants
This cohort study analyzed data from the Platelet Oriented Inhibition in New TIA and Minor Ischemic Stroke (POINT) trial conducted at 269 sites from May 28, 2010, to December 19, 2017. The trial enrolled 4881 adults within 12 hours of onset of a minor ischemic stroke (National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale score, 0-3) or high-risk TIA (ABCD2 score, ≥4). For this analysis, we excluded 598 patients enrolled outside the United States and 239 US patients with missing race/ethnicity data.
Main Outcomes and Measures
The primary outcome for this analysis was ischemic stroke within 90 days after randomization. Covariates included age, sex, Hispanic ethnicity, study assignment to take clopidogrel vs placebo, index stroke vs TIA, vascular risk factors, statin use, study drug adherence, and index event etiological subtype.
Results
Among 4044 patients included in the analysis, 918 (22.7%) were black. In an adjusted Cox model, black race was associated with a higher risk of recurrence compared with white race (hazard ratio, 1.6; 95% CI, 1.1-2.3). Findings were similar in subgroup analyses and in analyses limited to sites that enrolled black patients.
Conclusions and Relevance
Among US participants in the POINT trial, black individuals faced a higher risk of early stroke recurrence after a minor ischemic stroke or TIA. Our findings support research into black-white racial differences in the underlying mechanisms of recurrent stroke. In the meantime, extra effort should be made to ensure that black patients have access to proven secondary prevention measures.

790,31018869,Effects of a footwear intervention on foot pain and disability in people with gout: a randomised controlled trial.,"BACKGROUND
There is limited evidence supporting the long-term effect of a foot care package that includes footwear for people with gout. The aim of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of a footwear intervention on foot pain and disability in people with gout over 6 months.
METHODS
Participants with gout (n = 94) were randomly allocated to either a control group (podiatric care and gout education) or footwear intervention group (podiatric care and gout education plus a commercially available athletic shoe). Measurements were undertaken at baseline and 2, 4, and 6 months. Primary outcome was foot pain severity. Secondary outcomes were overall pain, foot impairment/disability, footwear comfort, fit, ease and weight. Data were analysed using repeated measures models.
RESULTS
Baseline foot pain scores were low, and no differences in foot pain scores were observed between groups over 6 months (adjusted effect estimate: - 6.7, 95% CI - 16.4 to 2.9, P = 0.17). Improvements between groups in overall pain scores (adjusted effect estimate: - 13.2, 95% CI - 22.2 to - 4.3, P < 0.01) and foot impairment/disability scores (- 4.7, 95% CI - 9.1 to - 0.3, P = 0.04) favouring the footwear intervention were observed at 2 months, but not at 4 or 6 months. Improvements between groups in footwear fit (adjusted effect estimate: - 11.1, 95% CI - 21.1 to - 1.0, P = 0.03), ease (- 13.2, 95% CI - 23.8 to - 2.7, P = 0.01) and weight (- 10.3, 95% CI - 19.8 to - 0.8, P = 0.03) favouring the footwear intervention were also observed over 6 months. Similar improvements were observed for footwear comfort at 2 and 4 months. No other differences in secondary outcomes measured were observed at 6 months (P > 0.05).
CONCLUSIONS
Addition of footwear to a foot care package did not improve foot pain in people with gout. Short-term improvements in overall pain and foot impairment/disability and more durable improvements in footwear comfort and fit were observed with the footwear intervention.

791,32155254,Feasibility and preliminary effectiveness of group antenatal care in Senegalese health posts: a pilot implementation trial.,"Almost all pregnant women in Senegal receive some antenatal care (ANC), yet only around half receive four or more visits and provision of education and counselling during ANC is often inadequate and, in some cases, non-existent. This results in missed opportunities to provide support and to counsel women regarding appropriate care-seeking practices and health behaviours during pregnancy and across the continuum of care. This pilot effectiveness-implementation randomized controlled trial explored whether group ANC (G-ANC), a model that integrates standard individual pregnancy care with facilitated participatory group education activities and peer support, could potentially address some of these challenges. The G-ANC model adapted for Senegal builds on local healthcare delivery systems and aligns with World Health Organization recommendations for a shift towards women-centred models of maternity services. It was implemented at the health post level, and a total of 330 pregnant women participated in the study, of whom 85% were followed up at 6-10 weeks post-delivery. We assessed implementation outcomes (e.g. acceptability, cost) to establish the feasibility of the model in Senegal and explored effectiveness outcomes related to maternal and infant health for the planning of a large-scale trial. Results indicate that women and ANC providers were overwhelmingly enthusiastic about the G-ANC model, and exploratory analyses suggested improvements in exclusive breastfeeding, intention to use family planning, birth preparations and knowledge around maternal and newborn danger signs. This article provides timely and relevant evidence on the feasibility of G-ANC as an alternative model of care during pregnancy and a solid basis for recommending the conduct of a large-scale implementation study of G-ANC in Senegal.",2020,The G-ANC model adapted for Senegal builds on local healthcare delivery systems and aligns with World Health Organization recommendations for a shift towards women-centred models of maternity services.,"['330 pregnant women', 'Senegalese health posts', 'pregnant women in Senegal receive some antenatal care (ANC', ""six health posts in Senegal's Kaolack district""]","['group ANC (G-ANC', 'Key Messages Group antenatal care (G-ANC', 'G-ANC']","['exclusive breastfeeding, intention to use family planning, birth preparations and knowledge around maternal and newborn danger signs']","[{'cui': 'C4517719', 'cui_str': '330 (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0033011', 'cui_str': 'Pregnant Women'}, {'cui': 'C0337846', 'cui_str': 'Senegalese (ethnic group)'}, {'cui': 'C0018684', 'cui_str': 'Health'}, {'cui': 'C0687676', 'cui_str': 'After values (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0036644', 'cui_str': 'Republic of Senegal'}, {'cui': 'C0033052', 'cui_str': 'Antenatal Care'}]","[{'cui': 'C0439745', 'cui_str': 'Grouped (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0033052', 'cui_str': 'Antenatal Care'}]","[{'cui': 'C0242205', 'cui_str': 'Breast Feeding, Exclusive'}, {'cui': 'C0162425', 'cui_str': 'Intention'}, {'cui': 'C1947944', 'cui_str': 'Use'}, {'cui': 'C0009861', 'cui_str': 'Family Planning Services'}, {'cui': 'C0005615', 'cui_str': 'Birth'}, {'cui': 'C0376554', 'cui_str': 'Knowledge'}, {'cui': 'C0026591', 'cui_str': 'Mothers'}, {'cui': 'C0021289', 'cui_str': 'Newborns'}, {'cui': 'C0311392', 'cui_str': 'Sign'}]",330.0,0.0342214,The G-ANC model adapted for Senegal builds on local healthcare delivery systems and aligns with World Health Organization recommendations for a shift towards women-centred models of maternity services.,"[{'ForeName': 'Britt', 'Initials': 'B', 'LastName': 'McKinnon', 'Affiliation': 'Centre for Global Child Health, The Hospital for Sick Children, 686 Bay Street, Toronto, ON M5G 0A4, Canada.'}, {'ForeName': 'Mohamadou', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Sall', 'Affiliation': 'Institut de Recherche et Formation en Population, Développement et Santé de la Reproduction, Université Cheik Anta Diop, P.O.

792,31543954,Does handwriting the name of a potential trial participant on an invitation letter improve recruitment rates? A randomised controlled study within a trial.,"Background: Randomised controlled trials (RCTs) often fail to recruit to target, resulting in a lack of generalisability of findings. A wide range of strategies for potentially increasing recruitment have been identified; however, their effectiveness has not been established. The aim of this study within a trial (SWAT) was to evaluate the effectiveness of handwritten personalisation of an invitation letter as part of a trial recruitment pack on recruitment to a host RCT. Methods: A pragmatic, two-armed RCT was conducted, embedded within an existing falls prevention trial (OTIS) in men and women aged 65 years and over living in the community. Participants were randomised 1:1 to receive an OTIS recruitment pack containing an invitation letter on which their name was handwritten (intervention group), or one on which it was printed (control group). The primary outcome was randomisation into the host trial. Secondary outcomes related to trial eligibility and retention. Analyses were via logistic regression and Cox Proportional Hazards regression. Results: Of the 317 SWAT participants, 12 (3.8%) were randomised into the OTIS trial: 3 (handwritten: 3/159 [1.9%]; printed: 9/158 [5.7%]; difference -3.8%, 95% CI -8.0% to 0.4%). There was weak evidence, against the intervention, of a difference in the likelihood of participants being randomised into the host trial between the two groups (OR 0.32, 95% CI 0.08 to 1.20, p=0.09). There were no statistically significant differences between the intervention and control groups on any of the secondary outcomes. Conclusions: There was no evidence that personalisation of invitation letters improved recruitment to the OTIS trial. However, due to the small sample size, the results should be interpreted with caution. These findings need to be replicated across larger studies and wider populations.

793,31122969,"Melatonin, temazepam and placebo in hospitalised older patients with sleeping problems (MATCH): a study protocol of randomised controlled trial.","INTRODUCTION
Hospitalised older patients frequently suffer from inadequate sleep, which can lead to patient distress and delayed recovery from acute illness or surgical procedure. Currently, no evidence-based treatments exist for sleeping problems in hospitalised older patients. Benzodiazepines, such as temazepam, are regularly prescribed by physicians, although they have serious side effects; for older patients in particular. Melatonin is proposed as a safe alternative for sleeping problems in hospitalised older patients, but the efficacy of melatonin is unclear in this population. Therefore, the aim of this study is to investigate the effects of melatonin and temazepam compared with placebo on sleep quality among hospitalised older patients with sleeping problems.
METHODS AND ANALYSIS
This study is a multicentre, randomised, placebo-controlled trial. A total of 663 patients will be randomised in a 1:1:1 fashion to receive either melatonin (n=221), temazepam (n=221) or placebo (n=221). The study population consists of hospitalised patients aged 60 years and older, with new or aggravated sleeping problems for which an intervention is needed. The primary outcome is sleep quality measured with the Leeds Sleep Evaluation Questionnaire (LSEQ). Secondary outcomes include sleep parameters measured with actigraphy and medication-related adverse effects.
ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION
This study was approved by the Medical Ethics Committee of the Academic Medical Centre Amsterdam, (No 2015_302). Study findings will be disseminated through presentations at professional and scientific conferences and publications in peer-reviewed journals.

794,31083056,Blended Collaborative Care to Treat Heart Failure and Comorbid Depression: Rationale and Study Design of the Hopeful Heart Trial.,"OBJECTIVE
Despite numerous improvements in care, morbidity from heart failure (HF) has remained essentially unchanged in recent years. One potential reason is that depression, which is comorbid in approximately 40% of hospitalized HF patients and associated with adverse HF outcomes, often goes unrecognized and untreated. The Hopeful Heart Trial is the first study to evaluate whether a widely generalizable telephone-delivered collaborative care program for treating depression in HF patients improves clinical outcomes.
METHODS
The Hopeful Heart Trial aimed to enroll 750 patients with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) (ejection fraction ≤ 45%) including the following: (A) 625 patients who screened positive for depression both during their hospitalization (Patient Health Questionnaire [PHQ-2]) and two weeks following discharge (PHQ-9 ≥ 10); and (B) 125 non-depressed control patients (PHQ-2(-)/PHQ-9 < 5). We randomized depressed patients to either their primary care physician's ""usual care"" (UC) or to one of two nurse-delivered 12-month collaborative care programs for (a) depression and HFrEF (""blended"") or (b) HrEFF alone (enhanced UC). Our co-primary hypotheses will test whether ""blended"" care can improve mental health-related quality of life versus UC and versus enhanced UC, respectively, on the Mental Component Summary of the Short-Form 12 Health Survey. Secondary hypotheses will evaluate the effectiveness of our interventions on mood, functional status, hospital readmissions, deaths, provision of evidence-based care for HFrEF, and treatment costs.
RESULTS
Not applicable.
CONCLUSIONS
The Hopeful Heart Trial will determine whether ""blended"" collaborative care for depression and HFrEF is more effective at improving patient-relevant outcomes than collaborative care for HFrEF alone or doctors' UC for HFrEF.

795,31243712,A Novel Dual-Frequency Deep Brain Stimulation Paradigm for Parkinson's Disease.,"INTRODUCTION
Deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the subthalamic nucleus (STN) using high-frequency (130-185 Hz) stimulation (HFS) is more effective for appendicular than for axial symptoms. Low-frequency stimulation (LFS) of the STN may reduce gait/balance and speech impairment but can result in worsened appendicular symptoms, limiting its clinical usefulness. A novel dual-frequency paradigm (interleave-interlink, IL-IL) was created in order to reduce gait/balance and speech impairment while maintaining appendicular symptom control in Parkinson's disease (PD) patients chronically stimulated with DBS.
METHODS
Two overlapping LFS programs are applied to each DBS lead, with the overlapping area focused around the optimal electrode contact. As a result, this area receives HFS, controlling appendicular symptoms. The non-overlapping area receives LFS, potentially reducing gait/balance and speech impairment. Patients were separated into three categories based on their chief complaint(s): gait/balance impairment, speech impairment, and/or incomplete PD symptom control. The Clinical- Global Impression of Change scale (CGI-C) was completed retrospectively based on patient/caregiver feedback in patients who remained on IL-IL (at 3 months and at the last follow-up).
RESULTS
Seventy-six patients were switched from optimized HFS to IL-IL. Fifty-five (72%) patients remained on IL-IL after 22 ± 8.7 months. The median (range) CGI-C for gait was 2 (1-5) at 3 months and 3 (1-4) at last follow-up, for dysarthria it was 4 (1-4) at 3 months and 4 (1-5) at last follow-up, and for PD motor it was 2 (1-3) at 3 months and 2 (1-3) at last follow-up.
CONCLUSION
A substantial number of patients remained on IL-IL because of subjective improvements in gait/balance, speech, or PD symptoms.

796,31061026,Effects of native language on CPR skills and willingness to intervene in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest after film-based basic life support training: a subgroup analysis of a randomised trial.,"OBJECTIVES
The aim was to investigate whether the students' native language, Swedish as native language (SNL) versus other native language (ONL), affects cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) skills or willingness to act after film-based training in Swedish.
SETTING
13-year-old students in two municipalities.
DESIGN
A subgroup from a previous randomised study was analysed. During 2013 to 2014, a film-based CPR method was evaluated. Practical skills and willingness to act were assessed directly after training and after 6 months. CPR skills were evaluated using a modified Cardiff test.
PARTICIPANTS
A total of 641 students were included in the analysis (SNL, n=499; ONL, n=142).
PRIMARY AND SECONDARY OUTCOME MEASURES
Primary endpoint was the total score of the modified Cardiff test at 6 months. The secondary endpoints were total score directly after training, individual variables for the test and self-reported willingness to act.
RESULTS
At the practical test, SNL students scored better than ONL students; directly after training, 67% vs 61% of maximum score, respectively (p<0.001); at 6 months, 61% vs 56% of maximum score (p<0.001). Most students were willing to perform compressions and ventilation on a friend (SNL 85% vs ONL 84%). However, if the victim was a stranger, ONL students were more willing to perform both compressions and ventilation than SNL students (52% vs 38% after training, p<0.001; 42% vs 31% at 6 months, p=0.032). SNL students preferred to initiate chest compressions only.
CONCLUSIONS
SNL students scored slightly higher in the practical CPR skill test than ONL students. Willingness to act was generally high, however ONL students reported higher willingness to perform both compressions and ventilation if the victim was a stranger. Further research is needed to investigate how CPR educational material should be designed and simplified for optimal learning by students. Different language versions or including feedback in CPR training can be a way to increase learning.
ETHICS APPROVAL

797,31095263,Clinical Performance Evaluation of a Personal Sound Amplification Product vs a Basic Hearing Aid and a Premium Hearing Aid.,"Importance
Hearing loss is a highly prevalent condition with multiple negative associated outcomes, yet few persons with hearing loss have hearing aids (HAs). Personal sound amplification products (PSAPs) could be an alternative low-cost solution to HAs, but data are lacking on the performance of PSAPs.
Objective
To evaluate the clinical efficacy of a PSAP by comparing its performance with that of a basic HA and a premium HA in participants with mild, moderate, and moderately severe hearing impairment.
Design, Setting, and Participants
A prospective, single-institution cohort study was performed with a total of 56 participants, including 19 with mild hearing loss, 20 with moderate hearing loss, and 17 with moderately severe hearing loss. All participants underwent 4 clinical hearing tests with each of the PSAP, basic HA, and premium HA, and all completed an evaluative questionnaire.
Interventions
All hearing devices (PSAP, basic HA, and premium HA) were applied by a clinician to prevent bias and order effects; participants were blinded to the device in use, and sequence of devices was randomized.
Main Outcomes and Measures
The study used the Korean version of the hearing in noise test, the speech intelligibility in noise test, listening effort measurement using a dual-task paradigm, pupillometry, and a self-rating questionnaire regarding sound quality and preference. These tests were administered under the following 4 hearing conditions: unaided hearing, use of PSAP, use of basic HA, and use of premium HA.
Results
The study included 56 participants with a mean age of 56 years (interquartile range, 48-59 years); 29 (52%) were women. In the mild and moderate hearing loss groups, there was no meaningful difference between PSAP, basic HA, and premium HA for speech perception (Cohen d = 0.06-1.05), sound quality (Cohen d = 0.06-0.71), listening effort (Cohen d = 0.10-0.92), and user preference (PSAP, 41%; basic HA, 28%; premium HA, 31%). However, for the patients with moderately severe hearing loss, the premium HA had better performance across most tests (Cohen d = 0.60-1.59), and 70% of participants preferred to use the premium HA.
Conclusions and Relevance
The results indicate that basic and premium HAs were not superior to the PSAP in patients with mild to moderate hearing impairment, which suggests that PSAPs might be used as an alternative to HAs in these patient populations. However, if hearing loss is more severe, then HAs, especially premium HAs, should be considered as an option to manage hearing loss.",2019,"The results indicate that basic and premium HAs were not superior to the PSAP in patients with mild to moderate hearing impairment, which suggests that PSAPs might be used as an alternative to HAs in these patient populations.","['All participants underwent 4 clinical hearing tests with each of the PSAP, basic HA, and premium HA, and all completed an evaluative questionnaire', 'patients with mild to moderate hearing impairment', '56 participants, including 19 with mild hearing loss, 20 with moderate hearing loss, and 17 with moderately severe hearing loss', 'participants with mild, moderate, and moderately severe hearing impairment', '56 participants with a mean age of 56 years (interquartile range, 48-59 years); 29 (52%) were women']","['Personal sound amplification products (PSAPs', 'PSAP', 'Personal Sound Amplification Product vs a Basic Hearing Aid and a Premium Hearing Aid']","['PSAP, basic HA, and premium HA for speech perception', 'sound quality', 'listening effort']","[{'cui': 'C0205210', 'cui_str': 'Clinical (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0392366', 'cui_str': 'Tests (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0205197', 'cui_str': 'Complete (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0034394', 'cui_str': 'Questionnaires'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C1299392', 'cui_str': 'Mild to moderate'}, {'cui': 'C0684336', 'cui_str': 'Impairment (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C0332257', 'cui_str': 'Including (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C2945599', 'cui_str': 'Mild (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0205081', 'cui_str': 'Moderate (severity modifier) (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C3874334', 'cui_str': 'Severe hearing loss (disorder)'}, {'cui': 'C0205082', 'cui_str': 'Severe (severity modifier) (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0444504', 'cui_str': 'Mean (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0001792', 'cui_str': 'Elderly'}, {'cui': 'C0439234', 'cui_str': 'year (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C3542016', 'cui_str': 'Range'}, {'cui': 'C0043210', 'cui_str': 'Girls'}]","[{'cui': 'C1293120', 'cui_str': 'Sounding'}, {'cui': 'C0018768', 'cui_str': 'Hearing Aids'}]","[{'cui': 'C0037826', 'cui_str': 'Speech Perception'}, {'cui': 'C1293120', 'cui_str': 'Sounding'}, {'cui': 'C0332306', 'cui_str': 'With quality (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0004339', 'cui_str': 'Auscultation'}]",56.0,0.0479195,"The results indicate that basic and premium HAs were not superior to the PSAP in patients with mild to moderate hearing impairment, which suggests that PSAPs might be used as an alternative to HAs in these patient populations.","[{'ForeName': 'Young Sang', 'Initials': 'YS', 'LastName': 'Cho', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Otorhinolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery, Sungkyunkwan University School of Medicine, Samsung Medical Center, Seoul, South Korea.'}, {'ForeName': 'Su Yeon', 'Initials': 'SY', 'LastName': 'Park', 'Affiliation': 'Hearing Research Laboratory, Samsung Medical Center, Seoul, South Korea.'}, {'ForeName': 'Hye Yoon', 'Initials': 'HY', 'LastName': 'Seol', 'Affiliation': 'Hearing Research Laboratory, Samsung Medical Center, Seoul, South Korea.'}, {'ForeName': 'Ji Hyun', 'Initials': 'JH', 'LastName': 'Lim', 'Affiliation': 'Center for Clinical Epidemiology, Samsung Medical Center, Seoul, South Korea.'}, {'ForeName': 'Yang-Sun', 'Initials': 'YS', 'LastName': 'Cho', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Otorhinolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery, Sungkyunkwan University School of Medicine, Samsung Medical Center, Seoul, South Korea.'}, {'ForeName': 'Sung Hwa', 'Initials': 'SH', 'LastName': 'Hong', 'Affiliation': 'Hearing Research Laboratory, Samsung Medical Center, Seoul, South Korea.'}, {'ForeName': 'Il Joon', 'Initials': 'IJ', 'LastName': 'Moon', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Otorhinolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery, Sungkyunkwan University School of Medicine, Samsung Medical Center, Seoul, South Korea.'}]",JAMA otolaryngology-- head & neck surgery,['10.1001/jamaoto.2019.0667']
798,31226342,Facts or stories? How to use social media for cervical cancer prevention: A multi-method study of the effects of sender type and content type on increased message sharing.,"Social media has become a valuable tool for disseminating cancer prevention information. However, the design of messages for achieving wide dissemination remains poorly understood. We conducted a multi-method study to identify the effects of sender type (individuals or organizations) and content type (personal experiences or factual information) on promoting the spread of cervical cancer prevention messages over social media. First, we used observational Twitter data to examine correlations between sender type and content type with retweet activity. Then, to confirm the causal impact of message properties, we constructed 900 experimental tweets according to a 2 (sender type) by 2 (content type) factorial design and tested their probabilities of being shared in an online platform. A total of 782 female participants were randomly assigned to 87 independent 9-person online groups and each received a unique message feed of 100 tweets drawn from the 4 experimental cells over 5 days. We conducted both tweet-level and group-level analyses to examine the causal effects of tweet properties on influencing sharing behaviors. Personal experience tweets and organizational senders were associated with more retweets. However, the experimental study revealed that informational tweets were shared significantly more (19%, 95% CI: 11 to 27) than personal experience tweets; and organizational senders were shared significantly more (10%, 95% CI: 3 to 18) than individual senders. While rare personal experience messages can achieve large success, they are generally unsuccessful; however, there is a reproducible causal effect of messages that use organizational senders and factual information for achieving greater peer-to-peer dissemination.",2019,Personal experience tweets and organizational senders were associated with more retweets.,['782 female participants'],['sender type (individuals or organizations) and content type (personal experiences or factual information'],['organizational senders'],"[{'cui': 'C0086287', 'cui_str': 'Females'}]","[{'cui': 'C0441704', 'cui_str': 'Typings (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0237401', 'cui_str': 'Individual (person)'}, {'cui': 'C0220885', 'cui_str': 'organization'}, {'cui': 'C4319824', 'cui_str': 'Content type (foundation metadata concept)'}]",[],782.0,0.0323419,Personal experience tweets and organizational senders were associated with more retweets.,"[{'ForeName': 'Jingwen', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Zhang', 'Affiliation': 'University of California, Davis, Department of Communication, One Shields Avenue, Davis, CA 95616, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Gem', 'Initials': 'G', 'LastName': 'Le', 'Affiliation': 'University of California San Francisco, Center for Vulnerable Populations, Division of General Internal Medicine, San Francisco, CA 94143, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'David', 'Initials': 'D', 'LastName': 'Larochelle', 'Affiliation': 'University of Pennsylvania, Annenberg School for Communication, 3620 Walnut Street, Philadelphia, PA 19104, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Rena', 'Initials': 'R', 'LastName': 'Pasick', 'Affiliation': 'University of California San Francisco, Helen Diller Family Comprehensive Cancer Center, San Francisco, CA 94143, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'George F', 'Initials': 'GF', 'LastName': 'Sawaya', 'Affiliation': 'University of California San Francisco, Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, San Francisco, CA 94143, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Urmimala', 'Initials': 'U', 'LastName': 'Sarkar', 'Affiliation': 'University of California San Francisco, Center for Vulnerable Populations, Division of General Internal Medicine, San Francisco, CA 94143, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Damon', 'Initials': 'D', 'LastName': 'Centola', 'Affiliation': 'University of Pennsylvania, Annenberg School for Communication, 3620 Walnut Street, Philadelphia, PA 19104, USA.

799,31286906,A pragmatic randomised trial of two counselling models at the Swedish national alcohol helpline.,"BACKGROUND
Alcohol telephone helplines targeting alcohol consumers in the general population can extend the reach of brief interventions while preserving in-person counselling. So far, studies of client outcomes in the setting of alcohol helplines are scarce. This study aims to compare the 6-months alcohol-related outcomes of two counselling models delivered at the Swedish National Alcohol Helpline.
METHODS
A pragmatic randomised trial was set up at the Swedish National Alcohol Helpline. First-time callers with current hazardous or harmful alcohol use who contacted the helpline, from May 2015 to December 2017, were invited to participate. Clients were allocated with 1:1 ratio to two groups: (1) brief, structured intervention (n = 128), including self-help material and one counsellor-initiated call, and (2) usual care (n = 133), i.e. multiple-session counselling using Motivational Interviewing (MI). The primary outcome was a downward change in AUDIT risk-zone between baseline and 6-months follow-up. The analysis followed an intention-to-treat approach.
RESULTS
Recruitment ended in December 2017. At 6-months follow-up, 70% of the enrolled participants had data on the outcome. In the brief, structured intervention (n = 107) 68% changed to a lower risk-level, compared to 61% in the usual care group (n = 117), yielding a risk ratio (RR) of 1.12 (95% CI 0.93 to 1.37) and risk difference of 0.08 (95% CI -0.05 to 0.20). The total AUDIT score and the scores from the AUDIT consumption questions (AUDIT-C) did not reveal any between-group differences in the mean change at follow-up.
CONCLUSIONS
The counselling at the Swedish National Alcohol Helpline was followed by a significant decrease in alcohol use among clients, without clear superiority for either counselling model.

800,30928969,Effect of communicating phenotypic and genetic risk of coronary heart disease alongside web-based lifestyle advice: the INFORM Randomised Controlled Trial.,"OBJECTIVE
To determine whether provision of web-based lifestyle advice and coronary heart disease risk information either based on phenotypic characteristics or phenotypic plus genetic characteristics affects changes in objectively measured health behaviours.
METHODS
A parallel-group, open randomised trial including 956 male and female blood donors with no history of cardiovascular disease (mean [SD] age=56.7 [8.8] years) randomised to four study groups: control group (no information provided); web-based lifestyle advice only (lifestyle group); lifestyle advice plus information on estimated 10-year coronary heart disease risk based on phenotypic characteristics (phenotypic risk estimate) (phenotypic group) and lifestyle advice plus information on estimated 10-year coronary heart disease risk based on phenotypic (phenotypic risk estimate) and genetic characteristics (genetic risk estimate) (genetic group). The primary outcome was change in physical activity from baseline to 12 weeks assessed by wrist-worn accelerometer.
RESULTS
928 (97.1%) participants completed the trial. There was no evidence of intervention effects on physical activity (difference in adjusted mean change from baseline): lifestyle group vs control group 0.09 milligravity (mg) (95% CI -1.15 to 1.33); genetic group vs phenotypic group -0.33 mg (95% CI -1.55 to 0.90); phenotypic group and genetic group vs control group -0.52 mg (95% CI -1.59 to 0.55) and vs lifestyle group -0.61 mg (95% CI -1.67 to 0.46). There was no evidence of intervention effects on secondary biological, emotional and health-related behavioural outcomes except self-reported fruit and vegetable intake.
CONCLUSIONS
Provision of risk information, whether based on phenotypic or genotypic characteristics, alongside web-based lifestyle advice did not importantly affect objectively measured levels of physical activity, other health-related behaviours, biological risk factors or emotional well-being.

801,30984388,Using pens as an incentive for trial recruitment of older adults: An embedded randomised controlled trial.,"Background : Meeting recruitment targets for randomised controlled trials is challenging. This trial evaluated the effectiveness of including a pen within the trial invitation pack on the recruitment of older adults into a randomised controlled trial. Methods : This trial was embedded within the Occupational Therapist Intervention Study, a falls-prevention randomised controlled trial. Potential participants (n = 1862), who were posted an invitation pack from two General Practitioner practices, were randomised to either not receive a pen (n = 1295) or receive a pen (n = 648) with their invitation pack, using a 2:1 ratio. The primary outcome was the likelihood of being randomised, and therefore fully recruited, to the host trial. To be randomised to the host trial, participants had to: return a consent form and screening form; be eligible on their screening form; and return a baseline questionnaire and a monthly falls calendar. Secondary outcomes were: the likelihood of returning (and time to return) a screening form; being eligible for the host trial; and remaining in the trial for at least 3 months.

There were marginal differences in secondary outcomes in favour of the pen group, particularly in screening form return rates, though these differences were not statistically significant.

Namilumab (AMG203), an immunoglobulin G1 monoclonal antibody that binds with high affinity to granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF), was evaluated in a phase II randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to investigate the efficacy and safety in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) with an inadequate response to methotrexate (MTX-IR) or anti-tumour necrosis factor therapy (TNF-IR).
METHODS
Subcutaneous namilumab (20, 80, or 150 mg) or placebo was administered at baseline and weeks 2, 6, and 10 in patients on stable background methotrexate therapy who were with MTX-IR or TNF-IR. Primary endpoint was mean change from baseline in the 28-joint Disease Activity Score, C-reactive protein version (DAS28-CRP) at week 12 comparing each of the three doses of namilumab to placebo. Safety and tolerability were assessed by adverse events (AEs) and pulmonary parameters. Results were analysed using the per-protocol population.
RESULTS
One hundred eight patients from Europe and Japan (48.4 ± 12.02 years old; 77.8% female; mean DAS28-CRP 5.60-5.79; rheumatoid factor/anti-citrullinated protein antibodies + 75%) were randomized to placebo or namilumab 20, 80, or 150 mg (n = 27, 28, 25, and 28, respectively). Ninety-two were MTX-IR; 16 were TNF-IR. At week 12, a statistically significant difference in DAS28-CRP (p = 0.005) was seen for namilumab 150 mg versus placebo and separation was seen as early as week 2 for namilumab 150 mg (p < 0.05), with higher ACR50 and response rates versus placebo at week 12. A dose-response effect was observed across the DAS28-CRP endpoint with separation versus placebo evident from week 2. The most common treatment-emergent AEs were nasopharyngitis (18.5%, 17.9%, 4.0%, 14.3%), dyspnoea (0.0%, 3.6%, 8.0%, 10.7%), bronchitis (7.4%, 3.6%, 4.0%, 3.6%), and headache (3.7%, 3.6%, 12.0%, 0.0%) for placebo and 20, 80, or 150 mg of namilumab, respectively. No serious infections were observed. One serious AE (myocardial infarction) was observed with 150 mg of namilumab. There was no apparent dose relationship for AEs. A biomarker-based disease activity score showed a dose-dependent decrease at week 12.
CONCLUSIONS
This phase II study demonstrates the benefit of inhibiting macrophage activity targeting the GM-CSF for RA. The study met its primary endpoint with a clear dose-response effect. An acceptable tolerability profile was demonstrated over the 12-week study.

803,30831180,Both increases and decreases in energy density lead to sustained changes in preschool children's energy intake over 5 days.,"BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE
To investigate preschool children's ability to self-regulate their energy intake, we assessed their response to increases or decreases in dietary energy density (ED) over 5 consecutive days, a period likely long enough for compensatory behavior.
METHODS
Using a crossover design, over 3 periods we served the same 5 daily menus to 49 children aged 3-5 y in their childcare centers. During each 5-day period, 3 main dishes and 1 snack per day were systematically varied in ED, from baseline ED to either higher ED (increased by 20%) or lower ED (decreased by 20%). All of the served items were weighed to determine individual intakes.
RESULTS
Modifying the ED of 4 dishes per day had a significant and sustained effect on preschool children's daily energy intake across 5 days. In the baseline condition, children's intakes were similar to daily energy needs (98 ± 2%), but serving higher-ED foods increased energy intake by 84 ± 16 kcal/d (to 105 ± 2% of needs) and serving lower-ED foods decreased energy intake by 72 ± 17 kcal/d (to 89 ± 2% of needs; both P < .0001). The patterns of daily energy intake over the 5 days did not differ across conditions (P = .20), thus there was no evidence that either surfeits or deficits in energy intake led to adjustment over this time period. Furthermore, the response to ED varied, as children with a higher weight status had greater amounts of overconsumption when served higher-ED foods and of underconsumption when served lower-ED foods compared to children with a lower weight status.
CONCLUSIONS
These findings counter the suggestion that preschool children's regulatory systems can be relied on to adjust intake in response to energy imbalances. Increasing or decreasing the ED of several foods per day leads to sustained changes in the energy intake of preschool children.",2019,"The patterns of daily energy intake over the 5 days did not differ across conditions (P = .20), thus there was no evidence that either surfeits or deficits in energy intake led to adjustment over this time period.","['preschool children', ""preschool children's"", '49 children aged 3-5 y in their childcare centers']",[],"['dietary energy density (ED', 'energy intake', 'energy density', ""preschool children's daily energy intake""]","[{'cui': 'C0008100', 'cui_str': 'Child, Preschool'}, {'cui': 'C0008059', 'cui_str': 'Child'}, {'cui': 'C0001792', 'cui_str': 'Elderly'}, {'cui': 'C0205099', 'cui_str': 'Central (qualifier value)'}]",[],"[{'cui': 'C0178587', 'cui_str': 'Mass to volume ratio'}, {'cui': 'C0006777', 'cui_str': 'Caloric Intake'}, {'cui': 'C0008100', 'cui_str': 'Child, Preschool'}, {'cui': 'C0332173', 'cui_str': 'Daily (qualifier value)'}]",49.0,0.10082,"The patterns of daily energy intake over the 5 days did not differ across conditions (P = .20), thus there was no evidence that either surfeits or deficits in energy intake led to adjustment over this time period.","[{'ForeName': 'Alissa D', 'Initials': 'AD', 'LastName': 'Smethers', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Nutritional Sciences, The Pennsylvania State University, University Park, PA, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Liane S', 'Initials': 'LS', 'LastName': 'Roe', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Nutritional Sciences, The Pennsylvania State University, University Park, PA, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Christine E', 'Initials': 'CE', 'LastName': 'Sanchez', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Nutritional Sciences, The Pennsylvania State University, University Park, PA, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Faris M', 'Initials': 'FM', 'LastName': 'Zuraikat', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Nutritional Sciences, The Pennsylvania State University, University Park, PA, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Kathleen L', 'Initials': 'KL', 'LastName': 'Keller', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Nutritional Sciences, The Pennsylvania State University, University Park, PA, USA; Department of Food Science, The Pennsylvania State University, University Park, PA, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Barbara J', 'Initials': 'BJ', 'LastName': 'Rolls', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Nutritional Sciences, The Pennsylvania State University, University Park, PA, USA.

804,31407191,Can Generic Intravenous Levetiracetam Be Used for Acute Repetitive Convulsive Seizure or Status Epilepticus? A Randomized Controlled Trial.,"INTRODUCTION
Intravenous levetiracetam (IV LEV) is approved for treatment status epilepticus (SE). However, the drug's high cost must be considered when deciding on a treatment strategy. This study aimed to compare the efficacy of brand-name and generic IV LEV for acute repetitive convulsive seizure (ARCS) or SE.
METHODS
Forty patients aged 18 years or older who had been diagnosed with SE or ARCS were included in this double-blind study. Patients were randomly assigned at a 1:1 ratio (via computer-generated code) to receive either brand-name or generic IV LEV. The primary outcomes were seizure control and the number of seizure exacerbations during the 24 h after drug administration, while the secondary outcomes were electroencephalographic (EEG) findings, serious adverse events, and clinical outcome at hospital discharge.
RESULTS
Forty patients were randomly assigned administration with either brand-name IV LEV (10 SE and 10 ARCS patients) or generic IV LEV; 7 SE and 13 ARCS patients). There was no significant difference in patients' baseline characteristics. The seizure control rate was 75% in the brand-name IV LEV group and 65% in the generic IV LEV group (p value: 0.490). Five (25%) patients in the brand-name IV LEV group, and six (30%) patients in the generic IV LEV group developed seizure exacerbations within 24 h after drug administration (p value 0.723). There were no reports of drug-related adverse events. Two of the patients taking brand-name IV LEV and one taking the generic IV LEV died (p value > 0.999).
CONCLUSION
Treatment with the generic IV LEV had comparable outcomes with brand-name IV LEV. The generic IV LEV may be an alternative medication for the treatment of SE and ARCS to reduce treatment costs.

805,31788029,Spray on skin for diabetic foot ulcers: an open label randomised controlled trial.,"Background
One Australian loses a limb every 3 h as a result of infected diabetic foot ulcers (DFU). This common condition accounts for substantial morbidity and mortality for affected individuals and heavy economic costs for the health sector and the community. There is an urgent need to test interventions that improve wound healing time, prevent amputations and recurrent ulceration in patients presenting with DFU whilst improving quality of life and reducing health care costs.
Methods
One hundred and fifty eligible participants will be randomised to receive an autologous skin cell suspension, also termed 'spray-on' skin (ReCell®) or standard care interventions for their DFU. The primary outcome is complete wound healing at 6 months, but participants will be followed up for a total of 12 months to enable secondary outcomes including total overall costs, ulcer free days at 12 months and quality of life to be assessed.
Discussion
Outpatient costs for dressings, home nursing visits and outpatient appointments are key cost drivers for DFU. If spray-on skin is effective, large cost savings to WA Health will be realised immediately through a shortened time to healing, and through a higher proportion of patients achieving complete healing. Shortened healing times may enable participants to return to work earlier. Any economic benefits are likely to be amplified across Australia and other similar demographic settings where aging populations with increased diabetes rates are considered major future challenges.

In February 2018, OS320-an amantadine extended-release (ER) tablet formulation with once-daily morning administration-was approved for the treatment of Parkinson's disease and drug-induced extrapyramidal reactions in adults. The purpose of this study was to describe three phase 1 studies that assessed the pharmacokinetics (PK) and bioavailability of amantadine ER in healthy adult volunteers.
METHODS
Study 1 was an open-label, four-treatment, single-dose, crossover study comparing amantadine ER 129, 193, and 258 mg tablets with an equivalent dose of immediate-release (IR) amantadine 40 mg/5 mL syrup. Study 2 was an open-label, single-dose, crossover food-effect study with amantadine ER 258 mg. Study 3 was an open-label, multiple-dose, crossover study comparing amantadine ER and amantadine IR syrup.
RESULTS
Amantadine ER displayed a steady release of amantadine, with the peak amantadine concentration occurring at ~ 7.5 h postdose or in the middle of the day (following a morning dose) with steady-state administration. Administration of amantadine ER 258 mg with a high-fat meal did not affect amantadine bioavailability. Amantadine plasma exposure increased proportionally with increasing doses, and at steady state, amantadine exposure from an amantadine ER 258-mg tablet was bioequivalent to twice-daily 129-mg amantadine IR syrup.
CONCLUSION
The PK profile of amantadine ER 129-mg, 193-mg, and 258-mg tablets allows for once-daily dosing in the morning; the 24-h average amantadine plasma concentration is equivalent to that for the same daily dose of IR amantadine administered twice daily.

807,31122968,Effects of electrical muscle stimulation in frail elderly patients during haemodialysis (DIAL): rationale and protocol for a crossover randomised controlled trial.,"INTRODUCTION
The phenomenon of population ageing is accompanied by increases in the number of elderly haemodialysis patients worldwide. The incidence of frailty is high in the haemodialysis population and is associated with poor clinical outcome. Although several interventions have been developed for use in general haemodialysis patients, the efficacy of such rehabilitation programmes in frail elderly patients on haemodialysis has not been elucidated. Here, we examined whether electrical muscle stimulation (EMS) would show beneficial effects in frail elderly patients on haemodialysis.
METHODS AND ANALYSIS
This is a randomised, two-period, controlled crossover trial, which will enrol 20 patients. Haemodialysis patients aged ≥65 years and defined as frail (ie, Short Physical Performance Battery score 4-9), will be randomly assigned to either group 1 (EMS intervention beginning in treatment period I, followed by reallocation as controls in treatment period II after a 5-week washout period) or group 2 (opposite schedule) in a 1:1 ratio. The two intervention periods will last 5 weeks each with an intervening washout period of 5 weeks. In the EMS intervention group, the treatment will be applied to the skeletal muscle of the entire lower extremity for 5 weeks, three times/week for 30-40 min during haemodialysis. The primary outcome of this study is the change in quadriceps isometric strength after the interventions. The secondary outcomes are the changes in physical function, physical activity, difficulty in activities of daily living, body composition, cognitive function, depressive symptoms, quality of life, blood test results and the clinical safety and feasibility of EMS therapy.
ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION
This study has been approved by the institutional review board/ethics committee of Kitasato University Allied Health Sciences. This study will be reported in peer reviewed publications and at conference presentations.

808,31079080,What works best when implementing a physical activity intervention for teenagers? Reflections from the ACTIVE Project: a qualitative study.,"OBJECTIVE
This paper explores what aspects of a multicomponent intervention were deemed strengths and weaknesses by teenagers and the local council when promoting physical activity to young people.
DESIGN
Qualitative findings at 12 months from a mixed method randomised control trial.
METHODS
Active Children Through Incentive Vouchers-Evaluation (ACTIVE) gave teenagers £20 of activity enabling vouchers every month for a year. Peer mentors were also trained and a support worker worked with teenagers to improve knowledge of what was available. Semistructured focus groups took place at 12 months to assess strengths and weaknesses of the intervention. Eight focus groups (n=64 participants) took place with teenagers and one additional focus group was dedicated to the local council's sport development team (n=8 participants). Thematic analysis was used to analyse the data.
RESULTS
Teenagers used the vouchers on three main activities: trampolining, laser tag or the water park. These appeal to both genders, are social, fun and require no prior skill or training. Choice and financial support for teenagers in deprived areas was considered a strength by teenagers and the local council. Teenagers did not engage with a trained peer mentor but the support worker was considered helpful.
CONCLUSIONS
The ACTIVE Project's delivery had both strengths and weakness that could be used to underpin future physical activity promotion. Future interventions should focus on improving access to low cost, fun, unstructured and social activities rather than structured organised exercise/sport. The lessons learnt from this project can help bridge the gap between what is promoted to teenagers and what they actually want from activity provision.

810,31655359,DNA epigenetic signature predictive of benefit from neoadjuvant chemotherapy in oesophageal adenocarcinoma: results from the MRC OE02 trial.,"BACKGROUND
DNA methylation signatures describing distinct histological subtypes of oesophageal cancer have been reported. We studied DNA methylation in samples from the MRC OE02 phase III trial, which randomised patients with resectable oesophageal cancer to surgery alone (S) or neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by surgery (CS).
AIM
The aim of the study was to identify epigenetic signatures predictive of chemotherapy benefit in patients with oesophageal adenocarcinoma (OAC) from the OE02 trial and validate the findings in an independent cohort.
METHODS
DNA methylation was analysed using the Illumina GoldenGate platform on surgically resected OAC specimens from patients in the OE02 trial. Cox proportional hazard analysis was performed to select probes predictive of survival in the CS arm. Non-negative matrix factorisation was used to perform clustering and delineate DNA methylation signatures. The findings were validated in an independent cohort of patients with gastroesophageal adenocarcinoma treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy.
RESULTS
A total of 229 patients with OAC were analysed from the OE02 trial (118 in the CS arm and 111 in the S arm). There was no difference in DNA methylation status between the CS and S arms. A metagene signature was created by dichotomising samples into two clusters. In cluster 1, patients in the CS arm had significant overall survival (OS) benefit (median OS CS: 931 days vs. S: 536 days [HR: 1.54, P = 0.031]). In cluster 2, patients in the CS arm had similar (or worse) OS compared with patients in the S arm (CS: 348 days vs. S: 472 days [HR: 0.70, P = 0.1], and test of interaction was significant (p = 0.005). In the validation cohort (n = 13), there was no difference in DNA methylation status in paired pre- and post-treatment samples. When the epigenetic signature was applied, cluster 1 samples had better OS (median OS, cluster 1: 1174 days vs. cluster 2: 392 days, HR: 3.47, p = 0.059) CONCLUSIONS: This is the first and largest study of DNA methylation in patients with OAC uniformly treated in a randomised phase III trial.

812,31434161,Integration of a Commercial Barcode-Assisted Medication Dispensing System in a Teaching Hospital.,"OBJECTIVES
A commercial barcode-assisted medication administration (BCMA) system was integrated to secure the medication process and particularly the dispensing stage by technicians and the administration stage with nurses. We aimed to assess the impact of this system on medication dispensing errors and barriers encountered during integration process.
METHODS
We conducted a controlled randomized study in a teaching hospital, during dispensing process at the pharmacy department. Four wards were randomized in the experimental group and control group, with two wards using the system during 3 days with dedicated pharmacy technicians. The system was a closed loop system without information return to the computerized physician order entry system. The two dedicated technicians had a 1-week training session. Observations were performed by one observer among the four potential observers previously trained. The main outcomes assessed were dispensing error rates and the identification of barriers encountered to expose lessons learned from this study.
RESULTS
There was no difference between the dispensing error rate of the control and experimental groups (7.9% for both, p = 0.927). We identified 10 barriers to pharmacy barcode-assisted system technology deployment. They concerned technical (problems with semantic interoperability interfaces, bad user interface, false errors generated, lack of barcodes), structural (poor integration with local information technology), work force (short staff training period, insufficient workforce), and strategic issues (system performance problems, insufficient budget).
CONCLUSION
This study highlights the difficulties encountered in integrating a commercial system in current hospital information systems. Several issues need to be taken into consideration before the integration of a commercial barcode-assisted system in a teaching hospital. In our experience, interoperability of this system with the electronic health record is the key for the success of this process with an entire closed loop system from prescription to administration.

814,31147361,"Multicentre, randomised trial comparing acellular porcine collagen implant versus gluteus maximus myocutaneous flap for reconstruction of the pelvic floor after extended abdominoperineal excision of rectum: study protocol for the Nordic Extended Abdominoperineal Excision (NEAPE) study.","INTRODUCTION
Different surgical techniques are used to cover the defect in the floor of the lesser pelvis after an 'extralevator' or 'extended' abdominoperineal excision for advanced rectal cancer. However, these operations are potentially mutilating, and the reconstruction method of the pelvic floor has been studied only sparsely. We aim to study whether a porcine-collagen implant is superior or equally beneficial to a gluteus maximus myocutaneous flap as a reconstruction method.
METHODS AND ANALYSIS
This is a multicentre non-blinded randomised controlled trial with the experimental arm using a porcine-collagen implant and the control arm using a gluteus maximus muscle and skin rotation flap. Considered for inclusion are patients with rectal cancer, who are operated on with a wide abdominoperineal rectal excision including most of the levator muscles and where the muscle remnants cannot be closed in the midline with sutures. Patients with a primary or recurrent rectal cancer with an estimated survival of more than a year are eligible. The randomisation is computer generated with a concealed sequence and stratified by participating hospital and preoperative radiotherapy regimen. The main outcome is physical performance 6 months after surgery measured with the timed-stands test. Secondary outcomes are perineal wound healing, surgical complications, quality of life, ability to sit and other outcomes measured at 3, 6 and 12 months after surgery. To be able to state experimental arm non-inferiority with a 10% margin of the primary outcome with 90% statistical power and assuming 10% attrition, we aim to enrol 85 patients from May 2011 onwards.
ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION
The study has been approved by the Regional Ethical Review board at Umeå University (protocol no: NEAPE-2010-335-31M). The results will be disseminated through patient associations and conventional scientific channels.

815,31142519,Effect of cervical manipulation on vertebral artery and cerebral haemodynamics in patients with chronic neck pain: a crossover randomised controlled trial.,"OBJECTIVE
It is hypothesised that cervical manipulation may increase the risk of cerebrovascular accidents. We aimed to determine whether cervical spine manipulation is associated with changes in vertebral artery and cerebrovascular haemodynamics measured with MRI compared with neutral neck position and maximum neck rotation in patients with chronic neck pain.
SETTING
The Imaging Research Centre at St. Joseph's Hospital in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada.
PARTICIPANTS
Twenty patients were included. The mean age was 32 years (SD ±12.5), mean neck pain duration was 5.3 years (SD ±5.7) and mean neck disability index score was 13/50 (SD ±6.4).
INTERVENTIONS
Following baseline measurement of cerebrovascular haemodynamics, we randomised participants to: (1) maximal neck rotation followed by cervical manipulation or (2) cervical manipulation followed by maximal neck rotation. The primary outcome, vertebral arteries and cerebral haemodynamics, was measured after each intervention and was obtained by measuring three-dimensional T1-weighted high-resolution anatomical images, arterial spin labelling and phase-contrast flow encoded MRI. Our secondary outcome was functional connectivity within the default mode network measured with resting state functional MRI.
RESULTS
Compared with neutral neck position, we found a significant change in contralateral blood flow following maximal neck rotation. There was also a significant change in contralateral vertebral artery blood velocity following maximal neck rotation and cervical manipulation. We found no significant changes within the cerebral haemodynamics following cervical manipulation or maximal neck rotation. However, we observed significant increases in functional connectivity in the posterior cerebrum and cerebellum (resting state MRI) after manipulation and maximum rotation.
CONCLUSION
Our results are in accordance with previous work, which has shown a decrease in blood flow and velocity in the contralateral vertebral artery with head rotation. This may explain why we also observed a decrease in blood velocity with manipulation because it involves neck rotation. Our work is the first to show that cervical manipulation does not result in brain perfusion changes compared with a neutral neck position or maximal neck rotation. The changes observed were found to not be clinically meaningful and suggests that cervical manipulation may not increase the risk of cerebrovascular events through a haemodynamic mechanism.

816,32152513,Effects of substituting eggs for high-carbohydrate breakfast foods on the cardiometabolic risk-factor profile in adults at risk for type 2 diabetes mellitus.,"OBJECTIVES
To assess effects of egg-based versus non-egg, higher-carbohydrate (CHO) breakfast meals on cardiometabolic health markers in overweight or obese adults with prediabetes and/or metabolic syndrome.
METHODS
This randomized, crossover study included two 4-week dietary interventions, separated by a ≥4-week washout. Subjects incorporated into their habitual diets breakfast meals containing either 2 eggs/day for 6 days/week (Egg condition), or energy-matched, non-egg, higher-CHO-based foods (Non-Egg condition). Dietary intakes, insulin sensitivity, and other CHO metabolism indices, lipid biomarkers, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein, and blood pressures were measured.
RESULTS
Thirty men and women with mean age 54.1 ± 1.9 years and body mass index 31.9 ± 0.7 kg/m 2 provided data. Neither diet condition significantly altered insulin sensitivity indices, but the homeostasis model assessment for insulin resistance was significantly (p = 0.028) higher after the Non-Egg vs. the Egg condition. Low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) was decreased from baseline (119 mg/dL) by 2.9 and 6.0% with Egg and Non-Egg breakfasts, respectively (p = 0.023). Systolic blood pressure was reduced from baseline (127 mm Hg) by 2.7 and 0.0% with Egg and Non-Egg, respectively (p = 0.018). Diet records indicated 149 kcal/day higher (p = 0.008) energy intake from non-study foods during the Egg condition; however, weight change from baseline did not differ between conditions.
CONCLUSION
Compared with the baseline diet, consumption of 12 eggs/week for 4 weeks at breakfast was associated with less reduction in LDL-C, and more lowering of systolic blood pressure, than observed with non-egg-based, energy-matched, control foods higher in CHO.",2020,"Diet records indicated 149 kcal/day higher (p = 0.008) energy intake from non-study foods during the Egg condition; however, weight change from baseline did not differ between conditions.

817,30659468,The KEEP SIMPLEST Study: Improving In-House Delays and Periinterventional Management in Stroke Thrombectomy-A Matched Pair Analysis.,"BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE
Although the treatment window for mechanical thrombectomy (MT) in patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS) has been extended in recent years, it has been proven that recanalizing treatment must be administered as soon as possible. We present a new standard operating procedure (SOP) to reduce in-house delay, standardize periinterventional management and improve patient safety during MT.
METHODS
KEep Evaluating Protocol Simplification In Managing Periinterventional Light Sedation for Endovascular Stroke Treatment (KEEP SIMPLEST) was a prospective, single-center observational study aimed to compare aspects of periinterventional management in AIS patients treated according to our new SOP using a combination of esketamine and propofol with patients having been randomized into conscious sedation (CS) in the Sedation versus Intubation for Endovascular Stroke TreAtment (SIESTA) trial. Primary outcome was early neurological improvement at 24h using the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale, and secondary outcomes were door-to-recanalization, recanalization grade, conversion rate and modified Rankin Scale (mRS) at 3 months.
RESULTS
Door-to-recanalization time (128.6 ± 69.47 min vs. 156.8 ± 75.91 min; p = 0.02), mean duration of MT (92.01 ± 52 min vs. 131.9 ± 64.03 min; p < 0.001), door-to-first angiographic image (51.61 ± 31.7 min vs. 64.23 ± 21.53 min; p = 0.003) and computed tomography-to-first angiographic image time (31.61 ± 20.6 min vs. 44.61 ± 19.3 min; p < 0.001) were significantly shorter in the group treated under the new SOP. There were no differences in early neurological improvement, mRS at 3 months or other secondary outcomes between the groups. Conversion rates of CS to general anesthesia were similar in both groups.
CONCLUSION
An SOP using a novel sedation regimen and optimization of equipment and procedures directed at a leaner, more integrative and compact periinterventional management can reduce in-house treatment delays significantly in stroke patients receiving thrombectomy in light sedation and demonstrated the safety and feasibility of our improved approach.",2019,"There were no differences in early neurological

818,32152811,"Inter-study repeatability of circumferential strain and diastolic strain rate by CMR tagging, feature tracking and tissue tracking in ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction.","Strain assessment allows accurate evaluation of myocardial function and mechanics in ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Strain using cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) has traditionally been assessed with tagging but limitations of this technique have led to more widespread use of alternative methods, which may be more robust. We compared the inter-study repeatability of circumferential global peak-systolic strain (Ecc) and peak-early diastolic strain rate (PEDSR) derived by tagging with values obtained using novel cine-based software: Feature Tracking (FT) (TomTec, Germany) and Tissue Tracking (TT) (Circle cvi 42 , Canada) in patients following STEMI. Twenty male patients (mean age 56 ± 10 years, mean infarct size 13.7 ± 7.1% of left ventricular mass) were randomised to undergo CMR 1-5 days post-STEMI at 1.5 T or 3.0 T, repeated after ten minutes at the same field strength. Ecc and PEDSR were assessed using tagging, FT and TT. Inter-study repeatability was evaluated using Bland-Altman analyses, coefficients of variation (CoV) and intra-class correlation coefficient (ICC). Ecc (%) was significantly lower with tagging than with FT or TT at 1.5 T (- 9.5 ± 3.3 vs. - 17.5 ± 3.8 vs. -15.5 ± 5.2, respectively, p < 0.001) and 3.0 T (- 13.1 ± 1.8 vs. - 19.4 ± 2.9 vs. - 17.3 ± 2.1, respectively, p = 0.001). This was similar for PEDSR (.s -1 ): 1.5 T (0.6 ± 0.2 vs. 1.5 ± 0.4 vs. 1.0 ± 0.4, for tagging, FT and TT respectively, p < 0.001) and 3.0 T (0.6 ± 0.2 vs. 1.5 ± 0.3 vs. 0.9 ± 0.3, respectively, p < 0.001). Inter-study repeatability for Ecc at 1.5 T was good for tagging and excellent for FT and TT: CoV 16.7%, 6.38%, and 8.65%, respectively. Repeatability for Ecc at 3.0 T was good for all three techniques: CoV 14.4%, 11.2%, and 13.0%, respectively. However, repeatability of PEDSR was generally lower than that for Ecc at 1.5 T (CoV 15.1%, 13.1%, and 34.0% for tagging, FT and TT, respectively) and 3.0 T (CoV 23.0%, 18.6%, and 26.2%, respectively). Following STEMI, Ecc and PEDSR are higher when measured with FT and TT than with tagging.

819,30157976,Cost-effectiveness of PoNDER health visitor training for mothers at lower risk of depression: findings on prevention of postnatal depression from a cluster-randomised controlled trial.,"BACKGROUND
There is evidence for the cost-effectiveness of health visitor (HV) training to assess postnatal depression (PND) and deliver psychological approaches to women at risk of depression. Whether this approach is cost-effective for lower-risk women is unknown. There is a need to know the cost of HV-delivered universal provision, and how much it might cost to improve health-related quality of life for postnatal women. A sub-study of a cluster-randomised controlled trial in the former Trent region (England) previously investigated the effectiveness of PoNDER HV training in mothers at lower risk of PND. We conducted a parallel cost-effectiveness analysis at 6-months postnatal for all mothers with lower-risk status attributed to an Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS) score <12 at 6-weeks postnatal.
METHODS
Intervention HVs were trained in assessment and cognitive behavioural or person-centred psychological support techniques to prevent depression. Outcomes examined: quality-adjusted life-year (QALY) gains over the period between 6 weeks and 6 months derived from SF-6D (from SF-36); risk-of-depression at 6 months (dichotomising 6-month EPDS scores into lower risk (<12) and at-risk (⩾12).
RESULTS
In lower-risk women, 1474 intervention (63 clusters) and 767 control participants (37 clusters) had valid 6-week and 6-month EPDS scores. Costs and outcomes data were available for 1459 participants. 6-month adjusted costs were £82 lower in intervention than control groups, with 0.002 additional QALY gained. The probability of cost-effectiveness at £20 000 was very high (99%).
CONCLUSIONS
PoNDER HV training was highly cost-effective in preventing symptoms of PND in a population of lower-risk women and cost-reducing over 6 months.",2019,"6-month adjusted costs were £82 lower in intervention than control groups, with 0.002 additional QALY gained.","['mothers with lower-risk status attributed to an Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS) score <12 at 6-weeks postnatal', 'mothers at lower risk of depression', 'women at risk of depression', 'mothers at lower risk of PND', '1459 participants']","['PoNDER health visitor training', 'PoNDER HV training', 'health visitor (HV) training', 'cognitive behavioural or person-centred psychological support techniques to prevent depression']","['6-month adjusted costs', 'quality-adjusted life-year (QALY) gains', 'probability of cost-effectiveness']","[{'cui': 'C0026591', 'cui_str': 'Mothers'}, {'cui': 'C3538919', 'cui_str': 'Low risk (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0449438', 'cui_str': 'Status (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0449234', 'cui_str': 'Attribute (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C3472185', 'cui_str': 'Edinburgh postnatal depression scale score (observable entity)'}, {'cui': 'C0439230', 'cui_str': 'week (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0443281', 'cui_str': 'Postnatal (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0011581', 'cui_str': 'Neurosis, Depressive'}, {'cui': 'C0043210', 'cui_str': 'Girls'}, {'cui': 'C1444641', 'cui_str': 'At risk'}, {'cui': 'C2976665', 'cui_str': 'P(TGTDI)Nd'}]","[{'cui': 'C0018765', 'cui_str': 'Health Visitors'}, {'cui': 'C0220931', 'cui_str': 'Functional training'}, {'cui': 'C0027361', 'cui_str': 'Persons'}, {'cui': 'C0205099', 'cui_str': 'Central (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0600015', 'cui_str': 'Emotional support (regime/therapy)'}, {'cui': 'C0025664', 'cui_str': 'techniques'}, {'cui': 'C1292733', 'cui_str': 'Prevents'}, {'cui': 'C0011581', 'cui_str': 'Neurosis, Depressive'}]","[{'cui': 'C0439231', 'cui_str': 'month (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0010186', 'cui_str': 'Cost'}, {'cui': 'C0080071', 'cui_str': 'QALY'}, {'cui': 'C0033204', 'cui_str': 'Probability'}, {'cui': 'C0010181', 'cui_str': 'Cost Effectiveness'}]",,0.15181,"6-month adjusted costs were £82 lower in intervention than control groups, with 0.002 additional QALY gained.","[{'ForeName': 'Catherine', 'Initials': 'C', 'LastName': 'Henderson', 'Affiliation': 'Personal Social Services Unit,London School of Economics and Political Science,London,UK.'}, {'ForeName': 'Simon', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Dixon', 'Affiliation': 'School of Health and Related Research, University of Sheffield,Sheffield,UK.'}, {'ForeName': 'Annette', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Bauer', 'Affiliation': 'Personal Social Services Unit,London School of Economics and Political Science,London,UK.'}, {'ForeName': 'Martin', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Knapp', 'Affiliation': 'Personal Social Services Unit,London School of Economics and Political Science,London,UK.'}, {'ForeName': 'C Jane', 'Initials': 'CJ', 'LastName': 'Morrell', 'Affiliation': 'School of Health Sciences, University of Nottingham,Nottingham,UK.'}, {'ForeName': 'Pauline', 'Initials': 'P', 'LastName': 'Slade', 'Affiliation': 'Institute of Psychology Health and Society, University of Liverpool,Liverpool,UK.'}, {'ForeName': 'Stephen J', 'Initials': 'SJ', 'LastName': 'Walters', 'Affiliation': 'School of Health and Related Research, University of Sheffield,Sheffield,UK.'}, {'ForeName': 'Traolach', 'Initials': 'T', 'LastName': 'Brugha', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Health Sciences,University of Leicester,Leicester,UK.'}]",Psychological medicine,['10.1017/S0033291718001940']
820,32147329,Colour change of ceramic brackets with the use of coloured beverages in adolescent patients: A randomized clinical trial.,"OBJECTIVE
To clinically evaluate colour change of ceramic orthodontic brackets with the use of coloured beverages as ceramic brackets' resistance to discoloration has become a major concern.
MATERIAL AND METHODS
A prospective two parallel groups-split mouth randomized trial with a 1:1 allocation ratio. Two equal groups including 40 adolescent patients from the orthodontic department (Faculty of Dentistry, Mansoura University, Egypt), scheduled for maxillary premolar extractions were bonded with 2 types of mono-crystalline ceramic brackets: Type 1 (Inspire ICETM) and Type 2 (Radiance PlusTM). Participants in each group were asked to rinse with either black tea or Cola. After extraction, the colour of the 80 debonded brackets was compared to that of 20 control brackets from each type by spectrophotometer according to the international standard CIELAB colour space (CIE L*a*b*). The latter consists of three coordinates: L* (lightness value), a* and b* (the colour channels). The total colour difference ΔE* is the distance between two colours in this three-dimensional colour space. The colour change was also assessed by digital image analysis according to the RGB model.
RESULTS
Type 1 brackets showed mean ΔE* values of 2.24±0.25 in black tea and 1.76±0.1 in Cola groups (P<0.001), while Type 2 brackets showed means of 1.99±0.15 in black tea and 1.56±0.1 in Cola groups (P<0.001). The mean RGB values were 174.3±12.02 in black tea and 185.6±6.9 in the Cola groups of type 1 brackets (P<0.001), while were 166.5±17.8 in black tea and 190.8±8.9 in Cola groups of type 2 brackets (P<0.001).
CONCLUSION
Black tea showed more significant effect than Cola on the two bracket types.

821,31432434,"Effect of Anodal tDCS on Articulatory Accuracy, Word Production, and Syllable Repetition in Subjects with Aphasia: A Crossover, Double-Blinded, Sham-Controlled Trial.","INTRODUCTION
Transcranial direct-current stimulation (tDCS) has been used to modulate and induce changes in brain function and excitability. tDCS is a promising tool for the treatment of aphasia.
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate whether tDCS improves articulatory accuracy and speech production in patients with aphasia after stroke.
METHODS AND RESULTS
Twelve right-handed subjects participated in a double-blind, sham-controlled, crossover offline trial. We assessed (1) articulatory accuracy at a naming task, (2) number of words correctly produced, (3) number of syllables repeated correctly, and (4) qualitative assessment of speech. Articulatory accuracy improved when using tDCS over Broca's area in subjects with aphasia post-stroke (p ≤ 0.05). Qualitative improvement in the naming and syllable repetition tasks was observed, but the difference was not statistically significant (respectively, p = 0.15 and p = 0.79).

822,31857893,A study protocol for a randomised crossover study evaluating the effect of diets differing in carbohydrate quality on ileal content and appetite regulation in healthy humans.,"Introduction: A major component of the digesta reaching the colon from the distal ileum is carbohydrate. This carbohydrate is subject to microbial fermentation and can radically change bacterial populations in the colon and the metabolites they produce, particularly short-chain fatty acids (SCFA). However, very little is currently known about the forms and levels of carbohydrate in the ileum and the composition of the ileal microbiota in humans. Most of our current understanding of carbohydrate that is not absorbed by the small intestine comes from ileostomy models, which may not reflect the physiology of an intact gastrointestinal tract. Methods: We will investigate how ileal content changes depending on diet using a randomised crossover study in healthy humans. Participants will be inpatients at the research facility for three separate 4-day visits. During each visit, participants will consume one of three diets, which differ in carbohydrate quality: 1) low-fibre refined diet; 2) high-fibre diet with intact cellular structures; 3) high-fibre diet where the cellular structures have been disrupted (e.g. milling, blending). On day 1, a nasoenteric tube will be placed into the distal ileum and its position confirmed under fluoroscopy. Ileal samples will be collected via the nasoenteric tube and metabolically profiled, which will determine the amount and type of carbohydrate present, and the composition of the ileal microbiota will be measured. Blood samples will be collected to assess circulating hormones and metabolites. Stool samples will be collected to assess faecal microbiota composition. Subjective appetite measures will be collected using visual analogue scales. Breath hydrogen will be measured in real-time as a marker of intestinal fermentation. Finally, an in vitro continuous fermentation model will be inoculated with ileal fluid in order to understand the shift in microbial composition and SCFA produced in the colon following the different diets.

823,31745072,High-dose eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) improves attention and vigilance in children and adolescents with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and low endogenous EPA levels.,"No studies have examined the relationship between endogenous polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) levels and treatment response to PUFAs. We conducted a 12-week, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial comparing the effects of high-dose eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA, 1.2 g) and placebo on cognitive function (continuous performance test) in n = 92 youth (age 6-18-years-old) with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). Blood erythrocytes PUFAs were measured before and after treatment, to examine the effects of baseline endogenous EPA levels on treatment response and the effects of EPA treatment on PUFAs levels. Secondary measures included other ADHD symptoms, emotional symptoms, and levels of plasma high-sensitivity c-reactive protein (hs-CRP) and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF). Overall, EPA group improved more than placebo group on focused attention (variability, Effect size (ES) = 0.38, p = 0.041); moreover, within youth with the lowest baseline endogenous EPA levels, EPA group improved more than placebo group in another measure of focused attention (hit reaction time, HRT, ES = 0.89, p = 0.015) and in vigilance (HRT interstimulus interval changes, HRTISIC, ES = 0.83, p = 0.036).

Pearl millet is a popular ancient grain variety that can be grown in hot, dry regions. However, little is known about its health effects. The present study investigated the effect of a pearl millet porridge (PMP) compared with a well-known Scottish oats porridge (SOP) on glycaemic, gastrointestinal, hormonal and appetitive responses. In a randomised, two-way crossover trial, twenty-six healthy participants consumed two isoenergetic/isovolumetric PMP or SOP breakfast meals, served with a drink of water. Blood samples for glucose, insulin, glucagon-like peptide 1, glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP), peptide YY, gastric volumes and appetite ratings were collected 2 h postprandially, followed by an ad libitum meal and food intake records for the remainder of the day. The incremental AUC (iAUC2h) for blood glucose was not significantly different between the porridges (P > 0·05). The iAUC2h for gastric volume was larger for PMP compared with SOP (P = 0·045). The iAUC2h for GIP concentration was significantly lower for PMP compared with SOP (P = 0·001). Other hormones and appetite responses were similar between meals. In conclusion, the present study reports, for the first time, data on glycaemic and physiological responses to a pearl millet breakfast, showing that this ancient grain could represent a sustainable alternative with health-promoting characteristics comparable with oats.

825,30511292,A School-Based Program to Promote Well-Being in Preadolescents: Results From a Cluster Quasi-Experimental Controlled Study.,"Diario della Salute [My Health Diary] is a school-based program designed to enhance the subjective well-being and health of 12- to 13-year-old students. We hypothesized that providing students with the social and emotional skills to fulfill their potential and deal with common developmental tasks of adolescence (e.g., onset of puberty, identity development, increased responsibilities and academic demands) would result in improved well-being and health. The program comprises five standardized interactive lessons concerning common psychosocial and health issues in adolescence, and two narrative booklets addressed to both students and their parents. We evaluated the effectiveness of the program in terms of the students' subjective well-being, aggressive behavior, and health behavior. Using a quasi-experimental study design, schools in the intervention group implemented the full program and those in the comparison group received their regular curriculum. We administered measures of the study's objectives both before and after program implementation. Statistical analyses accounted for within-school clustering, potential socioeconomic and demographic confounding, and pre-implementation levels of these measures. We sampled 62 schools and allocated 2630 students to either an intervention or comparison group. Sociodemographic characteristics and baseline outcomes were balanced across study groups. Unexpectedly, respondents in the intervention group had 0.38 greater mean adjusted score of the WHO/Europe Health Behaviour in School-Aged Children Symptom Checklist instrument than respondents in the comparison group, indicating a reduction in subjective well-being. We did not observe any program effects on aggressive and health behaviors. The apparent reduction in subjective well-being reflected by an increased perception of psychosomatic complaints is suggestive of either increased emotional competence or, potentially, iatrogenic program effects. While greater emotional competence is positively associated with well-being over the course of life, the program in its present form should not be disseminated due to the possibility of adverse unintended effects.",2019,"Unexpectedly, respondents in the intervention group had 0.38 greater mean adjusted score of the WHO/Europe Health Behaviour in School-Aged Children Symptom Checklist instrument than respondents in the comparison group, indicating a reduction in subjective well-being.","['Preadolescents', '62 schools and allocated 2630 students to either an intervention or comparison group']",['Diario della Salute [My Health Diary'],"['mean adjusted score of the WHO/Europe Health Behaviour', 'aggressive and health behaviors', 'emotional competence']","[{'cui': 'C0036375', 'cui_str': 'School'}, {'cui': 'C0038492', 'cui_str': 'Student (occupation)'}, {'cui': 'C0439745', 'cui_str': 'Grouped (qualifier value)'}]","[{'cui': 'C0018700', 'cui_str': 'Health Diaries'}]","[{'cui': 'C0444504', 'cui_str': 'Mean (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0449820', 'cui_str': 'Scores (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0015176', 'cui_str': 'Europe'}, {'cui': 'C0018684', 'cui_str': 'Health'}, {'cui': 'C0018687'}, {'cui': 'C0849912', 'cui_str': 'Emotional (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0086035', 'cui_str': 'Competence'}]",,0.0150131,"Unexpectedly, respondents in the intervention group had 0.38 greater mean adjusted score of the WHO/Europe Health Behaviour in School-Aged Children Symptom Checklist instrument than respondents in the comparison group, indicating a reduction in subjective well-being.","[{'ForeName': 'Elias', 'Initials': 'E', 'LastName': 'Allara', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Public Health and Primary Care, University of Cambridge, Cambridge, UK. elias.allara@med.uniupo.it.'}, {'ForeName': 'Franca', 'Initials': 'F', 'LastName': 'Beccaria', 'Affiliation': 'Eclectica Institute of Research, Training and Communication, Turin, Italy.'}, {'ForeName': 'Roberta', 'Initials': 'R', 'LastName': 'Molinar', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Translational Medicine, Università del Piemonte Orientale, Via Solaroli 17, Novara, Italy.'}, {'ForeName': 'Laura', 'Initials': 'L', 'LastName': 'Marinaro', 'Affiliation': 'Epidemiology Unit, Prevention Department, CN2 Local Health Authority, Alba, Italy.'}, {'ForeName': 'Antonella', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Ermacora', 'Affiliation': 'Eclectica Institute of Research, Training and Communication, Turin, Italy.'}, {'ForeName': 'Alessandro', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Coppo', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Translational Medicine, Università del Piemonte Orientale, Via Solaroli 17, Novara, Italy.'}, {'ForeName': 'Fabrizio', 'Initials': 'F', 'LastName': 'Faggiano', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Translational Medicine, Università del Piemonte Orientale, Via Solaroli 17, Novara, Italy.'}, {'ForeName': '', 'Initials': '', 'LastName': '', 'Affiliation': ''}]",The journal of primary prevention,['10.1007/s10935-018-0530-y']
826,31482848,The Use of and Experiences With Telelactation Among Rural Breastfeeding Mothers: Secondary Analysis of a Randomized Controlled Trial.,"BACKGROUND
Telelactation services connect breastfeeding mothers to remotely located lactation consultants through audio-visual technology and can increase access to professional breastfeeding support in rural areas.
OBJECTIVE
The objective of this study was to identify maternal characteristics associated with the demand for and use of telelactation and to describe visit characteristics.
METHODS
We conducted a descriptive study within the context of a randomized controlled trial. Participant survey data and vendor electronic medical record data were used to assess video call characteristics like timing, duration, topics discussed, and participant satisfaction. Recruitment occurred from 2016-2018 at a rural critical access hospital in Pennsylvania. The 102 women enrolled in the study were given access to unlimited, on-demand video calls with lactation consultants through a mobile phone app and were tracked for 12 weeks following their postpartum hospitalization.
RESULTS
A total of 94 participants out of 102 recruits (92%) participated in the final, 12-week survey assessment were included in the analysis. Of those, 47 (50%) participants reported participating in one or more video calls, and 31 (33%) completed one or more calls that included a substantive discussion of a breastfeeding challenge. Participants who used telelactation (21/31, 68%; P=.02) were more likely to be working at 12 weeks postpartum compared to others (26/63, 41%), were less likely (12/31, 39%; P=.02) to have prior breastfeeding experience on average compared to nonusers (41/63, 65%), and were less likely to have breastfed exclusively (16/31, 52%; P<.001) prior to hospital discharge compared to mothers who didn't use telelactation services (51/63, 81%). Most video calls (58/83, 70%) occurred during the infant's first month of life and 41% (34/83) occurred outside of business hours. The most common challenges discussed included: breast pain, soreness, and infection (25/83, 30%), use of nipple shields (21/83, 25%), and latch or positioning (17/83, 24%). Most telelactation users (43/47, 91%) expressed satisfaction with the help received.
CONCLUSIONS
Telelactation is an innovation in the delivery of professional breastfeeding support. This research documents both demand for and positive experiences with telelactation in an underserved population.

827,31823314,Translating CKD Research into Primary Care Practice: a Group-Randomized Study.,"BACKGROUND
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is common in the primary care setting. Early interventions may prevent progression of renal disease and reduce risk for cardiovascular complications, yet quality gaps have been documented. Successful approaches to improve identification and management of CKD in primary care are needed.
OBJECTIVE
To assess whether implementation of a primary care improvement model results in improved identification and management of CKD DESIGN: 18-month group-randomized study PARTICIPANTS: 21 primary care practices in 13 US states caring for 107,094 patients INTERVENTIONS: To promote implementation of CKD improvement strategies, intervention practices received clinical quality measure (CQM) reports at least quarterly, hosted an on-site visit and 2 webinars, and sent clinician/staff representatives to a ""best practice"" meeting. Control practices received CQM reports at least quarterly.
MAIN MEASURES
Changes in practice adherence to a set of 11 CKD CQMs KEY RESULTS: We observed significantly greater improvements among intervention practices for annual screening for albuminuria in patients with diabetes or hypertension (absolute change 22% in the intervention group vs. - 2.6% in the control group, p < 0.0001) and annual monitoring for albuminuria in patients with CKD (absolute change 21% in the intervention group vs. - 2.0% in the control group, p < 0.0001). Avoidance of NSAIDs in patients with CKD declined in both intervention and control groups, with a significantly greater decline in the control practices (absolute change - 5.0% in the intervention group vs. - 10% in the control group, p < 0.0001). There were no other significant changes found for the other CQMs. Variable implementation of CKD improvement strategies was noted across the intervention practices.
CONCLUSIONS
Implementation of a primary care improvement model designed to improve CKD identification and management resulted in significantly improved care on 3 out of 11 CQMs. Incomplete adoption of improvement strategies may have limited further improvement.

We conducted a multicenter, randomized, open-label, dose-ranging controlled trial of telmisartan. Participants with HIV infection receiving combination antiretroviral therapy were randomized equally to either no intervention (control) or 20, 40, or 80 mg telmisartan once daily. The adaptive design allowed testing of all dose(s) of telmisartan in stage I, with the promising dose(s) being taken into stage II. The primary outcome measure was reduction in homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) at 24 weeks.
RESULTS
A total of 377 patients were recruited. In stage I, 48, 49, 47, and 45 patients were randomized to control and 20, 40, and 80 mg telmisartan, respectively (total n = 189). At the interim analysis, 80 mg telmisartan was taken forward into stage II. At the end of stage II (n = 105, control; 106, 80-mg arm), there were no differences in HOMA-IR (estimated effect, 0.007; SE, 0.106) at 24 weeks between the telmisartan (80 mg) and nonintervention arms. Longitudinal analysis over 48 weeks showed no change in HOMA-IR, lipid or adipokine levels. There were significant (P ≤ .05), but marginal, improvements in revised Quantitative Insulin Sensitivity Check Index (QUICKI) (0.004) and plasma hs-CRP (-0.222 mg/L) and reduction in liver fat content (1.714 mean reduction; P = .005).
CONCLUSIONS
No significant effect of telmisartan was demonstrated on the primary outcome (HOMA-IR), but there were marginal improvements with some secondary outcome measures. Further studies in this population are warranted to identify novel strategies for preventing cardiovascular morbidity and mortality.

829,31654272,Efficacy and Safety of Alemtuzumab in Patients of African Descent with Relapsing-Remitting Multiple Sclerosis: 8-Year Follow-up of CARE-MS I and II (TOPAZ Study).,"INTRODUCTION
Multiple sclerosis (MS) patients of African descent have increased risk for disease progression and may be less responsive to disease-modifying therapy.
METHODS
Patients in the CARE-MS studies received alemtuzumab 12 mg/day [initial alemtuzumab treatment (IAT); baseline: 5 days; 12 months later: 3 days] or subcutaneous interferon beta-1a (SC IFNB-1a) 3 ×/week. Core study outcomes were compared between treatment groups. In the extension study CAMMS03409, SC IFNB-1a-treated patients switched to alemtuzumab [delayed alemtuzumab treatment (DAT)]. Data from IAT and DAT arms were pooled to assess outcomes through 6 years post alemtuzumab initiation; IAT patients had an additional 2 years of follow-up in TOPAZ.
RESULTS
Of 1200 CARE-MS patients, 43 (4%) were of African descent (35 IAT; 8 DAT) and received alemtuzumab in the 2-year core and/or 6-year extension; 29 (67%) remained on study at the time of analysis (24 IAT patients completed year 8 post alemtuzumab; 5 DAT patients completed year 6 post alemtuzumab). In year 2, annualized relapse rate (ARR; 0.09 versus 0.42), percentage of patients with improved Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS; 18% versus 11%), 6-month confirmed disability improvement (CDI; 28% versus 13%), no evidence of disease activity (55% versus 13%), and cumulative brain volume loss (BVL; - 0.55% versus - 1.32%) favored alemtuzumab versus SC IFNB-1a. Alemtuzumab remained efficacious at year 6 (pooled IAT/DAT) and at year 8 (IAT only) post alemtuzumab (ARR: 0.15 and 0.30; improved EDSS: 17% and 25%; CDI: 47% and 55%; BVL: - 1.14% and - 0.70%, respectively). No safety signals were unique to this population.
CONCLUSIONS
Alemtuzumab was efficacious in a small cohort of relapsing-remitting MS patients of African descent over 8 years. Safety was consistent with the overall CARE-MS population, although the small sample size may have prevented the detection of known low-frequency adverse events. CLINICALTRIALS.

830,31242065,"Mechanisms and perceived mental health changes after a livelihood intervention for HIV-positive Kenyans: Longitudinal, qualitative findings.","While food insecurity and poverty worsen mental health outcomes among people living with HIV/AIDS (PLHIV), few intervention studies have targeted poverty and food insecurity as a way to improve mental health. Among HIV-positive patients, addressing such upstream determinants may prove crucial to ensure better mental health and HIV clinical outcomes. We integrated longitudinal, qualitative research into a randomized trial of a livelihood intervention to understand processes and mechanisms for how the intervention may affect mental health among HIV-infected Kenyan adults. In-depth interviews were conducted with intervention participants ( n = 45) and control participants ( n = 9) at two time-points (after intervention start and upon intervention end). Interviews ( n = 85) were translated, double-coded, and analyzed thematically using an inductive-deductive team approach. Participants reported numerous mental health improvements post-intervention including reduced stress, fewer symptoms of anxiety, improved mood, lower depressive symptoms, fewer repetitive and ruminating thoughts, and more hopefulness for the future. Improvements in mental health appear to occur via several mechanisms including: 1) better food security and income; 2) increased physical activity and ability to create fruitful routines around farm work; and, 3) improved sense of self as an active member of the community. Qualitative, longitudinal interviews may help identify intervention mechanisms for improved mental health, but additional research is required to confirm self-reports of mental health changes. These findings suggest that livelihood interventions may improve mental health in multi-faceted ways, and help PLHIV better integrate with their communities.

832,31791405,"Improving risk perception and uptake of pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) through interactive feedback-based counselling with and without community engagement in young women in Manicaland, East Zimbabwe: study protocol for a pilot randomized trial.","BACKGROUND
HIV incidence in adolescent girls and young women remains high in sub-Saharan Africa. Progress towards uptake of HIV prevention methods remains low. Studies of oral pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) have shown that uptake and adherence may be low due to low-risk perception and ambivalence around using antiretrovirals for prevention. No evidence exists on whether an interactive intervention aimed at adjusting risk perception and addressing the uncertainty around PrEP will improve uptake. This pilot research trial aims to provide an initial evaluation of the impact of an interactive digital tablet-based counselling session, correcting risk perception, and addressing ambiguity around availability, usability, and effectiveness of PrEP.
METHODS/DESIGN
This is a matched-cluster randomized controlled trial which will compare an interactive tablet-based education intervention against a control with no intervention. The study will be implemented in eight sites. In each site, two matched clusters of villages will be created. One cluster will be randomly allocated to intervention. In two sites, a community engagement intervention will also be implemented to address social obstacles and to increase support from peers, families, and social structures. A total of 1200 HIV-negative young women aged 18-24 years, not on PrEP at baseline, will be eligible. Baseline measures of endpoints will be gathered in surveys. Follow-up assessment at six months will include biomarkers of PrEP uptake and surveys.
DISCUSSION
This will be the first randomized controlled trial to determine whether interactive feedback counselling leads to uptake of HIV prevention methods such as PrEP and reduces risky sexual behavior. If successful, policymakers could consider such an intervention in school-based education campaigns or as post-HIV-testing counselling for young people.

We evaluated the association between AF/AFL and volitional physical activity, functional performance, NT-proBNP, and quality of life in patients with HFpEF in the Nitrate's Effect on Activity Tolerance (NEAT)-HFpEF trial. Of 99 patients with accelerometer data, 35 (35%) had AF/AFL. There were no differences between AF/AFL versus no AF/AFL in baseline average daily accelerometer units (ADAUs; 9.06 ± 0.54 vs 9.06 ± 0.48, p = 0.75), hours active per day (9.7 ± 2.3 vs 9.2 ± 2.2, p = 0.86), or 6-minute walk distance (6MWD; 307 ± 136m vs 321 ± 110m, p = 0.85). AF/AFL status was associated with higher baseline NT-proBNP (586 [25th to 75th percentile: 291 to 1254] pg/ml vs 154 [25th to 75th percentile: 92 to 288] pg/ml, p <0.001) and Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire scores (69 [25th to 75th percentile: 46 to 88] vs 48 [25th to 75th percentile: 37 to 70], p = 0.01).

834,30620389,Association between age and sex and mortality after adjuvant therapy for renal cancer.,"BACKGROUND
In phase 3 trials of patients with resected high-risk renal cell carcinoma, adjuvant sunitinib has demonstrated no overall survival (OS) benefit, an uncertain disease-free survival (DFS) benefit, and increased toxicity versus placebo. To identify patients who may derive benefit or harm from adjuvant therapy, the authors assessed the effects of age and sex on treatment outcomes in the phase 3 Adjuvant Sorafenib or Sunitinib for Unfavorable Renal Cancer (ASSURE) trial.
METHODS
The authors conducted a post hoc subgroup analysis of age and sex among patients in the ASSURE trial. Adjusted hazard ratios (HRs) for OS and DFS were evaluated with sunitinib or sorafenib versus placebo in 4 patient subgroups defined by sex and median age at the time of the study.
RESULTS
Sunitinib treatment was associated with decreased OS (HR, 2.21; 95% confidence interval, 1.29-3.80) among women aged >56 years, but not in women aged ≤56 years or men of any age. Similar associations with age and sex were observed for DFS, but these were not statistically significant (women aged >56 years: HR, 1.41 [95% confidence interval, 0.94-2.10]). No such association was found for sorafenib. The interaction by age and sex on mortality was found to be statistically significant for sunitinib (P = .01), but not sorafenib (P = .10).
CONCLUSIONS
Adjuvant sunitinib may increase mortality among older women with renal cell carcinoma. Given the recent approval of adjuvant sunitinib for patients with high-risk resected renal cell carcinoma, additional studies are needed to confirm these findings.",2019,"The interaction by age and sex on mortality was found to be statistically significant for sunitinib (P = .01), but not sorafenib (P = .10).

835,31094434,Parenting a child with cancer: a couple-based approach.,"Couples co-parenting a child with cancer face significant stressors that can adversely affect their couple relationship. How parents respond as a couple may affect the psychological adjustment of each parent and the child, as well as the ability of the family to cope with the child's illness. The purpose of this study was to assess the feasibility and acceptability of a couple-based intervention for parents of children with cancer. We conducted a randomized pilot intervention study (N = 21 couples randomized with a 2:1 allocation to the couple-based intervention or education control) testing a six-session, telephone-based intervention that trained couples in relationship skills to help them care for their child, strengthen their relationship, and support each other. We examined feasibility and acceptability of the intervention to the parents. In this study, 56% of eligible couples agreed to participate; 82% of randomized couples completed post-intervention surveys, and 62% completed all six sessions. Satisfaction with the intervention was high (mean = 3.3 on a 4-point scale). Changes in both groups were small in magnitude and mixed in direction, with some outcomes favoring the couple-based intervention and other favoring the education condition. Supporting couples is important to optimize individual and parental functioning when a child has cancer. However, there are significant challenges to delivering couple-based interventions to these parents. More research is needed to establish optimal timing and content of couple-based interventions for these parents as well as feasible methods of delivery.",2019,"Changes in both groups were small in magnitude and mixed in direction, with some outcomes favoring the couple-based intervention and other favoring the education condition.","['parents of children with cancer', 'Parenting a child with cancer']","['couple-based intervention or education control) testing a six-session, telephone-based intervention that trained couples in relationship skills to help them care', 'couple-based intervention']","['Satisfaction', 'feasibility and acceptability']","[{'cui': 'C0030551', 'cui_str': 'Parent of (observable entity)'}, {'cui': 'C0008059', 'cui_str': 'Child'}, {'cui': 'C1306459', 'cui_str': 'Primary malignant neoplasm'}, {'cui': 'C0085092', 'cui_str': 'Parenting'}]","[{'cui': 'C0010222', 'cui_str': 'Couples'}, {'cui': 'C0178499', 'cui_str': 'Base'}, {'cui': 'C0013621', 'cui_str': 'Education'}, {'cui': 'C2587213', 'cui_str': 'Controlled (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0392366', 'cui_str': 'Tests (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0039457', 'cui_str': 'Telephone'}, {'cui': 'C0336809', 'cui_str': 'Railway train, device (physical object)'}, {'cui': 'C0439849', 'cui_str': 'Relationships (qualifier value)'}]","[{'cui': 'C0242428', 'cui_str': 'Satisfaction'}, {'cui': 'C3645535', 'cui_str': 'Acceptability'}]",21.0,0.0264426,"Changes in both groups were small in magnitude and mixed in direction, with some outcomes favoring the couple-based intervention and other favoring the education condition.","[{'ForeName': 'Laura S', 'Initials': 'LS', 'LastName': 'Porter', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences, Duke University Medical Center, Durham, NC, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Donald H', 'Initials': 'DH', 'LastName': 'Baucom', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Psychology, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, Chapel Hill, NC, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Melanie', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Bonner', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences, Duke University Medical Center, Durham, NC, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Corinne', 'Initials': 'C', 'LastName': 'Linardic', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Pediatrics-Hematology/Oncology, Duke University Medical Center, Durham, NC, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Anne E', 'Initials': 'AE', 'LastName': 'Kazak', 'Affiliation': ""Center for Healthcare Delivery Science, Nemours Children's Health System, Sidney Kimmel Medical College of Thomas Jefferson University, Wilmington, DE, USA.""}]",Translational behavioral medicine,['10.1093/tbm/ibz016']
836,31094440,A four-group experiment to improve Western high school students' sun protection behaviors.,"Multicomponent skin cancer preventive interventions for adolescents that aim to decrease ultraviolet radiation (UVR) exposure and sunburns are particularly needed given their intentional tanning and infrequent use of sun protection. The purpose of this study was to conduct an early-phase study within the Multiphase Optimization Strategy framework that experimentally tested four unique intervention components targeting high school students' skin cancer prevention behaviors. Schools (11 total, N = 1,573 students) were assigned to receive one of four interventions: skin cancer education (control), education plus a sunscreen activity (to illustrate sunscreen's UVR-blocking properties), or behavior change worksheet (sun protection goal setting and planning) or receipt of a personalized UV damage photograph (photograph of facial damage). Sun protection, sunburn, and tanning outcomes were assessed before intervention and at 1-month follow-up. Within- and between-intervention changes in outcomes were examined using generalized estimating equation modeling. All interventions were associated with significant improvements in sun protection. The photograph was superior in controlling intentional tanning and sunburn when compared to the behavior change worksheet (ps < .05). In contrast, the worksheet was associated with greater increases in sun protection use when compared with the photograph (ps < .05). In this experiment testing four skin cancer preventive intervention components that varied in approach, content, and interactivity, the behavior change worksheet was superior in improving sun protection use whereas the UV photograph was superior in controlling intentional tanning and sunburn.

One hundred seventy-five overweight children (87% black, 61% female, age 9.7 ± 0.9 years, 73% obese) were randomized to an 8 month aerobic exercise or sedentary after-school program. Depressive symptoms, anger expression, self-worth, and QOL were measured at baseline and post-test. Depressive symptoms and QOL were also measured at follow-up. Intent-to-treat mixed models evaluated intervention effects, including sex differences. At post-test, QOL, depression, and self-worth improved; no group by time or sex by group by time interaction was detected for QOL or self-worth. Boys' depressive symptoms improved more and anger control decreased in the sedentary intervention relative to the exercise intervention at post-test. At follow-up, depressive symptoms in boys in the sedentary group decreased more than other groups. Exercise provided benefits to QOL, depressive symptoms, and self-worth comparable to a sedentary program. Sedentary programs with games and artistic activities, interaction with adults and peers, and behavioral structure may be more beneficial to boys' mood than exercise.

838,30996057,Network-targeted stimulation engages neurobehavioral hallmarks of age-related memory decline.,"OBJECTIVE
To test whether targeting hippocampal-cortical brain networks with high-frequency transcranial magnetic stimulation in older adults influences behavioral and neural measures characteristic of age-related memory impairment.
METHODS
Fifteen adults aged 64 to 80 years (mean = 72 years) completed a single-blind, sham-controlled experiment. Stimulation targets in parietal cortex were determined based on fMRI connectivity with the hippocampus. Recollection and recognition memory were assessed after 5 consecutive daily sessions of full-intensity stimulation vs low-intensity sham stimulation using a within-subjects crossover design. Neural correlates of recollection and recognition memory formation were obtained via fMRI, measured within the targeted hippocampal-cortical network vs a control frontal-parietal network. These outcomes were measured approximately 24 hours after the final stimulation session.
RESULTS
Recollection was specifically impaired in older adults compared to a young-adult control sample at baseline. Relative to sham, stimulation improved recollection to a greater extent than recognition. Stimulation increased recollection fMRI signals throughout the hippocampal-cortical network, including at the targeted location of the hippocampus. Effects of stimulation on fMRI recollection signals were greater than those for recognition and were greater in the targeted network compared to the control network.
CONCLUSIONS
Age-related recollection impairments were causally related to hippocampal-cortical network function in older adults.

839,30633331,The effects of a randomized trial of brief forms of stress management on RAGE-associated S100A8/A9 in patients with breast cancer undergoing primary treatment.,"BACKGROUND
Women with breast cancer (BCa) experience heightened distress, which is related to greater inflammation and poorer outcomes. The s100 protein family facilitates the inflammatory response by regulating myeloid cell function through the binding of Toll-like receptor 4 and the receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE). The heterodimer s100A8/A9 RAGE ligand is associated with hastened tumor development and metastasis. Previously, a 10-week stress-management intervention using cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and relaxation training (RT) was associated with less leukocyte inflammatory gene expression in patients with BCa; however, its impact on s100A8/A9 was not examined. Because a 10-week intervention may be impractical during primary treatment for BCa, the authors developed briefer forms of CBT and RT and demonstrated their efficacy in reducing distress over 12 months of primary treatment. Here, the effects of these briefer interventions were tested effects on s100A8/A9 levels over the initial 12 months of BCa treatment.
METHODS
Postsurgical patients with BCa (stage 0-IIIB) were randomized to a 5-week, group-based condition: CBT, RT, or health education control (HE). At baseline and at 12 months, women provided sera from which s100A8/A9 levels were determined using any enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.
RESULTS
Participants (mean age ± standard deviation, 54.81 ± 9.63 years) who were assigned to either CBT (n = 41) or RT (n = 38) had significant s100A8/A9 decreases over 12 months compared with those who were assigned to HE (n = 44; F [1,114] = 4.500; P = .036) controlling for age, stage, time since surgery, and receipt of chemotherapy or radiation. Greater increases in stress-management skills from preintervention to postintervention predicted greater reductions in s100A8/A9 levels over 12 months (β = -0.379; t [101] = -4.056; P < .001).

840,31125101,Short- and Long-term Effects of a Mobile Phone App in Conjunction With Brief In-Person Counseling on Physical Activity Among Physically Inactive Women: The mPED Randomized Clinical Trial.,"Importance
Mobile phone applications (apps) and activity trackers allow researchers to remotely deliver an intervention and monitor physical activity but have not been rigorously evaluated for longer periods.
Objective
To determine whether a mobile phone-based physical activity education app, in conjunction with brief in-person counseling, increases and then maintains levels of physical activity.
Design, Setting, and Participants
In this parallel randomized clinical trial, community-dwelling physically inactive women recruited between May 2011 and April 2014 were randomized in equal proportions into the control (n = 69), regular (n = 71), and plus (n = 70) groups. Data were analyzed using intention to treat from September 16, 2016, through June 30, 2018.
Interventions
The regular and plus groups were instructed to use the app on their mobile phone and an accelerometer every day for 3 months and attend brief in-person counseling. During the 6-month maintenance period, the plus group continued to use the app and accelerometer, while the regular group stopped using the app but continued using the accelerometer. The control group used the accelerometer throughout.
Main Outcomes and Measures
The primary and secondary outcomes were daily accelerometer-measured total steps and time spent in moderate to vigorous physical activity (MVPA).
Results
The 210 participants had a mean (SD) age of 52.4 (11.0) years. At baseline, the mean (SD) daily total steps by accelerometer in the control, regular, and plus groups were 5384 (2920), 5063 (2526), and 5837 (3235), respectively. During the 3-month intervention period, daily steps and MVPA increased in the combined regular and plus groups compared with the control group (between-group differences, 2060 steps per day; 95% CI, 1296-2825 steps per day; P < .001 and 18.2 min/d MVPA; 95% CI, 10.9-25.4 min/d MVPA; P < .001). During the subsequent 6-month maintenance period, mean activity level remained higher in the combined plus and regular groups than among controls (between-group difference, 1360 steps per day; 95% CI, 694-2026 steps per day; P <. 001), but trends in total daily steps and MVPA were similar in the plus and regular groups.
Conclusions and Relevance
In this trial, the intervention groups substantially increased their physical activity. However, use of both the app and accelerometer for an additional 6 months after the initial 3-month intervention did not help to maintain increases in physical activity compared with continued use of the accelerometer alone.

841,31740727,Comparison of pressure- and volume-controlled ventilation during laparoscopic colectomy in patients with colorectal cancer.,"This study investigated the differences in airway mechanics and postoperative respiratory complications using two mechanical ventilation modalities and the relationship between biomarkers and postoperative respiratory complications in patients with colorectal cancer who underwent laparoscopic colectomy. Forty-six patients with colorectal cancer scheduled for laparoscopic colectomy were randomly allocated to receive mechanical ventilation using either volume-controlled ventilation (VCV) (n = 23) or pressure-controlled ventilation (PCV) (n = 23). Respiratory parameters were measured and plasma sRAGE and S100A12 were collected 20 minutes after the induction of anesthesia in the supine position without pneumoperitoneum (T1), 40 minutes after 30° Trendelenburg position with pneumoperitoneum (T2), at skin closure in the supine position (T3), and 24 hours after the operation (T4). The peak airway pressure (Ppeak) at T2 was lower in the PCV group than in the VCV group. The plateau airway pressures (Pplat) at T2 and T3 were higher in the VCV group than in the PCV group. Plasma levels of sRAGE at T2 and T3 were 1.6- and 1.4-fold higher in the VCV group than in the PCV group, while plasma S100A12 levels were 2.6- and 2.2-fold higher in the VCV group than in the PCV group, respectively. There were significant correlations between Ppeak and sRAGE, and between Ppeak and S100A12. There were also correlations between Pplat and sRAGE, and between Pplat and S100A12. sRAGE and S100A12 levels at T2 and T3 showed high sensitivity and specificity for postoperative respiratory complications. Postoperative respiratory complications were 3-fold higher in the VCV group than in the PCV group. In conclusion, during laparoscopic colectomy in patients with colorectal cancer, the peak airway pressure, the incidence of postoperative respiratory complications, and plasma sRAGE and S100A12 levels were lower in the PCV group than in the VCV group.

842,30396098,Testing a brief motivational-interviewing educational commitment module for at-risk college drinkers: A randomized trial.,"BACKGROUND
The goal of the present study was to test the drink and harm reduction effects of a novel educational commitment (EC) module as a complement to a standard brief MI protocol (i.e., the Brief Alcohol Screening and Intervention for College Students; BASICS, Dimeff, Baer, Kivlahan, & Marlatt, 1999).
METHODS
Using a randomized trial design, 180 university students were assigned to one of three conditions: Information, BASICS, or BASICS+EC. Participants completed an alcohol consumption interview and measures of alcohol-related problems, partying decision-making, subjective student role investment, and self-control-related traits at baseline and at two- and nine-month follow-ups.
RESULTS
Linear models showed significant condition effects for two-month and nine-month drink quantity, but not for alcohol problems/consequences. Secondary outcome analyses showed significant condition effects for two-month high-risk high-reward partying decision-making and nine-month conscientiousness. Somewhat larger-sized decreases in consumption were observed at two months for the BASICS+EC condition compared to the BASICS condition, although these differences were not present at nine months.
CONCLUSIONS
The differential efficacy between the BASICS and BASICS+EC conditions compared to the Information condition reinforces the utility of in-person feedback modalities as more intensive indicated prevention strategies for at-risk college drinkers. The limited differential efficacy for BASICS+EC compared to BASICS suggests a brief MI module for the academic/vocational aspects of the student role is not associated with greater long-term drink and harm reduction. Future research should examine more intensive educational commitment modalities, the utility of on-going academic goal and action feedback, and mechanisms of differential efficacy across intervention groups.",2019,"RESULTS

843,30524137,Metabolomic consequences of genetic inhibition of PCSK9 compared with statin treatment.,"Background
Both statins and PCSK9 inhibitors lower blood low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels to reduce risk of cardiovascular events. To assess potential differences between metabolic effects of these two lipid-lowering therapies, we performed detailed lipid and metabolite profiling of a large randomized statin trial and compared the results with the effects of genetic inhibition of PCSK9, acting as a naturally occurring trial.
Methods
228 circulating metabolic measures were quantified by nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, including lipoprotein subclass concentrations and their lipid composition, fatty acids, and amino acids, for 5,359 individuals (2,659 on treatment) in the PROspective Study of Pravastatin in the Elderly at Risk (PROSPER) trial at 6-months post-randomization. The corresponding metabolic measures were analyzed in eight population cohorts (N=72,185) using PCSK9 rs11591147 as an unconfounded proxy to mimic the therapeutic effects of PCSK9 inhibitors.
Results
Scaled to an equivalent lowering of LDL-C, the effects of genetic inhibition of PCSK9 on 228 metabolic markers were generally consistent with those of statin therapy ( R 2 =0.88). Alterations in lipoprotein lipid composition and fatty acid distribution were similar. However, discrepancies were observed for very-low-density lipoprotein (VLDL) lipid measures. For instance, genetic inhibition of PCSK9 had weaker effects on lowering of VLDL-cholesterol compared with statin therapy (54% vs. 77% reduction, relative to the lowering effect on LDL-C; P =2x10 -7 for heterogeneity). Genetic inhibition of PCSK9 showed no significant effects on amino acids, ketones, or a marker of inflammation (GlycA) whereas statin treatment weakly lowered GlycA levels.
Conclusions
Genetic inhibition of PCSK9 had similar metabolic effects to statin therapy on detailed lipid and metabolite profiles. However, PCSK9 inhibitors are predicted to have weaker effects on VLDL lipids compared with statins for an equivalent lowering of LDL-C, which potentially translate into smaller reductions in cardiovascular disease risk.",2018,"Genetic inhibition of PCSK9 showed no significant effects on amino acids, ketones, or a marker of inflammation (GlycA) whereas statin treatment weakly lowered GlycA levels.

844,31505228,A Phase 3 Randomized Study of Remestemcel-L versus Placebo Added to Second-Line Therapy in Patients with Steroid-Refractory Acute Graft-versus-Host Disease.,"Uncontrolled studies have suggested that bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) may be effective against acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD). We conducted a multicenter, randomized study to assess the efficacy of using ex vivo cultured adult human MSC (remestemcel-L) in addition to second-line therapy to treat steroid-refractory aGVHD (NCT00366145). In total, 260 patients, 6 months to 70 years of age, were enrolled from August 2006 to May 2009 and were randomized 2:1 to receive 8 intravenous infusions of remestemcel-L or placebo, given over 4 weeks, in addition to second-line therapy according to institutional standards. Four additional infusions over 4 weeks were indicated for patients with incomplete response at day 28. Randomization was stratified by aGVHD grade. Efficacy and safety were assessed through 180 days of follow-up, with the primary endpoint being durable complete response (DCR), defined as complete resolution of aGVHD symptoms for any period of at least 28 days after beginning treatment. Remestemcel-L did not meet the primary endpoint of greater DCR in the intent-to-treat population (35% versus 30%; P = 0.42). In post hoc analyses, patients with liver involvement who received at least 1 infusion of remestemcel-L had a higher DCR, and higher overall complete or partial response rate (OR) than those who received placebo (29% versus 5%; P = .047). Among high-risk patients (aGVHD grades C and D), remestemcel-L demonstrated significantly higher OR at day 28 than placebo (58% versus 37%; P = 0.03). Furthermore, pediatric patients had a higher OR with MSCs compared with placebo (64% versus 23%; P = .05). Similar rates of adverse events were observed between treatment groups. Remestemcel-L was safe and well tolerated. Results of this study did not demonstrate superior DCR compared with placebo when added to standard of care.

845,31974286,"Sodium Bicarbonate Supplementation and Urinary TGF- β 1 in Nonacidotic Diabetic Kidney Disease: A Randomized, Controlled Trial.","BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES
In early-phase studies of individuals with hypertensive CKD and normal serum total CO 2 , sodium bicarbonate reduced urinary TGF- β 1 levels and preserved kidney function. The effect of sodium bicarbonate on kidney fibrosis and injury markers in individuals with diabetic kidney disease and normal serum total CO 2 is unknown.
DESIGN, SETTING, PARTICIPANTS, & MEASUREMENTS
We conducted a randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled study in 74 United States veterans with type 1 or 2 diabetes mellitus, eGFR of 15-89 ml/min per 1.73 m 2 , urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (UACR) ≥30 mg/g, and serum total CO 2 of 22-28 meq/L. Participants received oral sodium bicarbonate (0.5 meq/kg lean body wt per day; n =35) or placebo ( n =39) for 6 months. The primary outcome was change in urinary TGF- β 1-to-creatinine from baseline to months 3 and 6. Secondary outcomes included changes in urinary kidney injury molecule-1 (KIM-1)-to-creatinine, fibronectin-to-creatinine, neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL)-to-creatinine, and UACR from baseline to months 3 and 6.
RESULTS
Key baseline characteristics were age 72±8 years, eGFR of 51±18 ml/min per 1.73 m 2 , and serum total CO 2 of 24±2 meq/L. Sodium bicarbonate treatment increased mean total CO 2 by 1.2 (95% confidence interval [95% CI], 0.3 to 2.1) meq/L, increased urinary pH by 0.6 (95% CI, 0.5 to 0.8), and decreased urinary ammonium excretion by 5 (95% CI, 0 to 11) meq/d and urinary titratable acid excretion by 11 (95% CI, 5 to 18) meq/d. Sodium bicarbonate did not significantly change urinary TGF- β 1/creatinine (difference in change, 13%, 95% CI, -10% to 40%; change within the sodium bicarbonate group, 8%, 95% CI, -10% to 28%; change within the placebo group, -4%, 95% CI, -19% to 13%). Similarly, no significant effect on KIM-1-to-creatinine (difference in change, -10%, 95% CI, -38% to 31%), fibronectin-to-creatinine (8%, 95% CI, -15% to 37%), NGAL-to-creatinine (-33%, 95% CI, -56% to 4%), or UACR (1%, 95% CI, -25% to 36%) was observed.

846,30195661,"Efficacy of brief behavioral treatment for insomnia in older adults: examination of sleep, mood, and cognitive outcomes.","OBJECTIVE
The aim of the present study was to examine the effects of a brief behavioral intervention for insomnia (BBTi) on sleep parameters, mood, and cognitive functioning in older adults.
METHODS
Older adults (aged 65 years or more) underwent four weekly sessions of BBTi or self-monitoring control (SMC). Participants completed 14 days of sleep diaries and actigraphy measuring sleep onset latency (SOL), wake after sleep onset (WASO), total sleep time (TST), sleep efficiency (SE), and sleep quality ratings at baseline, post-treatment, and three month follow-up. Participants also completed mood scales (Geriatric Depression Scale [GDS]; Beck Depression Inventory-II; and State Trait Anxiety Inventory) and neuropsychological testing (measuring global cognition, language, memory, attention and processing speed, and executive function) at the three timepoints.
RESULTS
Significant condition (BBTi vs. SMC) x time (baseline vs. post-treatment vs. follow-up) interactions revealed that BBTi improved relative to baseline in sleep diary-reported SOL, WASO, SE, and sleep quality, and these improvements were maintained at follow-up. SMC showed no change in these measures. A main effect of time showed that actigraphy-measured WASO improved from baseline for both BBTi and SMC at post-treatment. A main effect of time revealed that both BBTi and SMC patients endorsed fewer GDS symptoms relative to baseline at post-treatment and follow-up. We observed no change in performance on neuropsychological measures.
CONCLUSIONS
A four-week BBTi is an efficacious intervention for reducing insomnia symptoms in older adults. BBTi does not selectively improve mood or cognitive functioning. Future work should examine effects of BBTi on physiological measures of sleep architecture and day-to-day cognition.

847,32144133,Randomized Phase II Trial Evaluating Treatment with EGFR-TKI Associated with Antiestrogen in Women with Nonsquamous Advanced-Stage NSCLC: IFCT-1003 LADIE Trial.,"PURPOSE
The incidence of lung cancer has dramatically increased in women. Preclinical data have suggested that combining EGFR-tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) with an antiestrogen may overcome resistance to EGFR-TKI.
PATIENTS AND METHODS
The IFCT-1003 LADIE trial was a 2 × 2 arms parallel open-label randomized phase II trial. EGFR-TKI-naïve postmenopausal women with advanced lung cancer were treated with gefitinib (G) versus gefitinib + fulvestrant (G+F) in the EGFR-mutated group (EGFR + ) or with erlotinib (E) versus erlotinib + fulvestrant (E+F) in the EGFR wild-type group (EGFR-WT). The primary objective was progression-free survival (PFS) at 3 and 9 months for EGFR-WT and EGFR + patients.
RESULTS
Overall, 204 patients (gefitinib 104 and G+F 100) and 175 patients (erlotinib 87 and E+F 88) were enrolled in the EGFR + and EGFR-WT cohorts. In the EGFR + cohort, the primary endpoint was reached, with 58% of the G+F group patients being nonprogressive at 9 months. Adding fulvestrant to gefitinib was not associated with improved PFS (9.9 vs 9.4 months) or overall survival (OS; 22.1 vs 28.6 months). In the EGFR-WT cohort, the primary endpoint was also achieved (33.7% of the patients were nonprogressive at 3 months). Adding fulvestrant to erlotinib was not associated with improved outcome (PFS 1.8 vs 2.0 and OS 10.3 vs 7.3 months). No PFS difference was observed regarding estrogen receptor alpha expression. The tolerance was as expected with no treatment-related death.
CONCLUSIONS
Adding fulvestrant to EGFR-TKI is feasible, but not associated with prolonged PFS regardless of EGFR status. The lack of benefits while combining fulvestrant to EGFR-TKI does not support its future development in an unselected population.",2020,Adding F to G was not associated with improved PFS (9.9 vs 9.4

848,30095158,Validation of the MCL35 gene expression proliferation assay in randomized trials of the European Mantle Cell Lymphoma Network.,"Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is still considered incurable and the course of the disease is highly variable. Established risk factors include the Mantle Cell Lymphoma International Prognostic Index (MIPI) and the quantification of the proliferation rate of the tumour cells, e.g. by Ki-67 immunohistochemistry. In this study, we aimed to validate the prognostic value of the gene expression-based MCL35 proliferation assay in patient cohorts from randomized trials of the European Mantle Cell Lymphoma Network. Using this assay, we analysed the gene expression proliferation signature in routine diagnostic lymph node specimens from MCL Younger and MCL Elderly trial patients, and the calculated MCL35 score was used to assign MCL patients to low (61%), standard (27%) or high (12%) risk groups with significantly different outcomes. We confirm here in our prospective clinical trial cohort of MCL patients, that the MCL35 assay is strongly prognostic, providing additional information to the Ki-67 index and the MIPI. Thus, this robust assay may assist in making treatment decisions or in devising risk-adapted prospective clinical trials in the future.",2019,"Established risk factors include the Mantle Cell Lymphoma International Prognostic Index (MIPI) and the quantification of the proliferation rate of the tumour cells, e.g. by Ki-67 immunohistochemistry.","['European Mantle Cell Lymphoma Network', 'patient cohorts from randomized trials of the European Mantle Cell Lymphoma Network', 'routine diagnostic lymph node specimens from MCL Younger and MCL Elderly trial patients']","['gene expression-based MCL35 proliferation assay', 'MCL']",[],"[{'cui': 'C0239307', 'cui_str': 'European (ethnic group)'}, {'cui': 'C0334634', 'cui_str': 'Lymphoma, Small-Cell, Centrocytic'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C0205547', 'cui_str': 'Routine (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0348026', 'cui_str': 'Diagnostic'}, {'cui': 'C0024204', 'cui_str': 'Lymphatic gland'}, {'cui': 'C0332239', 'cui_str': 'Young (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0001792', 'cui_str': 'Elderly'}]","[{'cui': 'C0017262', 'cui_str': 'Gene Expression'}, {'cui': 'C0178499', 'cui_str': 'Base'}, {'cui': 'C0334094', 'cui_str': 'Proliferation (morphologic abnormality)'}, {'cui': 'C1510438', 'cui_str': 'Assay technique (qualifier value)'}]",[],,0.0313025,"Established risk factors include the Mantle Cell Lymphoma International Prognostic Index (MIPI) and the quantification of the proliferation rate of the tumour cells, e.g. by Ki-67 immunohistochemistry.","[{'ForeName': 'Hilka', 'Initials': 'H', 'LastName': 'Rauert-Wunderlich', 'Affiliation': 'Institute of Pathology, University of Würzburg and Comprehensive Cancer Centre (CCC) Mainfranken, Würzburg, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Anja', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Mottok', 'Affiliation': 'Institute of Pathology, University of Würzburg and Comprehensive Cancer Centre (CCC) Mainfranken, Würzburg, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'David W', 'Initials': 'DW', 'LastName': 'Scott', 'Affiliation': 'Centre for Lymphoid Cancer, British Columbia Cancer Agency, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.'}, {'ForeName': 'Lisa M', 'Initials': 'LM', 'LastName': 'Rimsza', 'Affiliation': 'Laboratory Medicine and Pathology, Mayo Clinic, Scottsdale, AZ, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'German', 'Initials': 'G', 'LastName': 'Ott', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Clinical Pathology, Robert-Bosch-Krankenhaus, Stuttgart, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Wolfram', 'Initials': 'W', 'LastName': 'Klapper', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Pathology, Haematopathology Section\xa0and Lymph Node Registry, University of Kiel, Kiel, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Michael', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Unterhalt', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Medicine III, University Hospital of the Ludwig Maximilians University Munich, Munich, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Hanneke C', 'Initials': 'HC', 'LastName': 'Kluin-Nelemans', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Haematology, University Medical Centre Groningen, University of Groningen, Groningen, The Netherlands.'}, {'ForeName': 'Olivier', 'Initials': 'O', 'LastName': 'Hermine', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Haematology, Necker Hospital, Public Assistance - Hospital of Paris, University Paris Descartes, Paris, France.'}, {'ForeName': 'Sylvia', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Hartmann', 'Affiliation': 'Dr. Senckenberg Institute of Pathology, Goethe University, Frankfurt am Main, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Christoph', 'Initials': 'C', 'LastName': 'Thorns', 'Affiliation': 'Institute of Pathology, Marienkrankenhaus, Hamburg, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Grzegorz', 'Initials': 'G', 'LastName': 'Rymkiewicz', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Pathology and Laboratory Diagnostics, Maria Sklodowska-Curie Institute-Oncology Centre, Warsaw, Poland.'}, {'ForeName': 'Harald', 'Initials': 'H', 'LastName': 'Holte', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Oncology, Oslo University Hospital, Oslo, Norway.'}, {'ForeName': 'Martin', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Dreyling', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Medicine III, University Hospital of the Ludwig Maximilians University Munich, Munich, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Eva', 'Initials': 'E', 'LastName': 'Hoster', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Medicine III, University Hospital of the Ludwig Maximilians University Munich, Munich, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Andreas', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Rosenwald', 'Affiliation': 'Institute of Pathology, University of Würzburg and Comprehensive Cancer Centre (CCC) Mainfranken, Würzburg, Germany.'}]",British journal of haematology,['10.1111/bjh.15519']
849,29808473,The independent effects of hypovolaemia and pulmonary vasoconstriction on ventricular function and exercise capacity during acclimatisation to 3800 m.,"KEY POINTS
We sought to determine the isolated and combined influence of hypovolaemia and hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction on the decrease in left ventricular (LV) function and maximal exercise capacity observed under hypobaric hypoxia. We performed echocardiography and maximal exercise tests at sea level (344 m), and following 5-10 days at the Barcroft Laboratory (3800 m; White Mountain, California) with and without (i) plasma volume expansion to sea level values and (ii) administration of the pulmonary vasodilatator sildenafil in a double-blinded and placebo-controlled trial. The high altitude-induced reduction in LV filling and ejection was abolished by plasma volume expansion but to a lesser extent by sildenafil administration; however, neither intervention had a positive effect on maximal exercise capacity. Both hypovolaemia and hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction play a role in the reduction of LV filling at 3800 m, but the increase in LV filling does not influence exercise capacity at this moderate altitude.
ABSTRACT
We aimed to determine the isolated and combined contribution of hypovolaemia and hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction in limiting left ventricular (LV) function and exercise capacity under chronic hypoxaemia at high altitude. In a double-blinded, randomised and placebo-controlled design, 12 healthy participants underwent echocardiography at rest and during submaximal exercise before completing a maximal test to exhaustion at sea level (SL; 344 m) and after 5-10 days at 3800 m. Plasma volume was normalised to SL values, and hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction was reversed by administration of sildenafil (50 mg) to create four unique experimental conditions that were compared with SL values: high altitude (HA), Plasma Volume Expansion (HA-PVX), Sildenafil (HA-SIL) and Plasma Volume Expansion with Sildenafil (HA-PVX-SIL). High altitude exposure reduced plasma volume by 11% (P < 0.01) and increased pulmonary artery systolic pressure (19.6 ± 4.3 vs. 26.0 ± 5.4, P < 0.001); these differences were abolished by PVX and SIL respectively. LV end-diastolic volume (EDV) and stroke volume (SV) were decreased upon ascent to high altitude, but were comparable to sea level in the HA-PVX trial. LV EDV and SV were also elevated in the HA-SIL and HA-PVX-SIL trials compared to HA, but to a lesser extent. Neither PVX nor SIL had a significant effect on the LV EDV and SV response to exercise, or the maximal oxygen consumption or peak power output. In summary, at 3800 m both hypovolaemia and hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction contribute to the decrease in LV filling, but restoring LV filling does not confer an improvement in maximal exercise performance.",2019,"LV end-diastolic volume (EDV) and stroke volume (SV) were decreased upon ascent to high altitude, but were comparable to sea level in the HA-PVX trial.","['12 healthy participants

850,29914843,Diagnostic accuracy of magnetic resonance enterography and small bowel ultrasound for the extent and activity of newly diagnosed and relapsed Crohn's disease (METRIC): a multicentre trial.,"BACKGROUND
Magnetic resonance enterography (MRE) and ultrasound are used to image Crohn's disease, but their comparative accuracy for assessing disease extent and activity is not known with certainty. Therefore, we did a multicentre trial to address this issue.
METHODS
We recruited patients from eight UK hospitals. Eligible patients were 16 years or older, with newly diagnosed Crohn's disease or with established disease and suspected relapse. Consecutive patients had MRE and ultrasound in addition to standard investigations. Discrepancy between MRE and ultrasound for the presence of small bowel disease triggered an additional investigation, if not already available. The primary outcome was difference in per-patient sensitivity for small bowel disease extent (correct identification and segmental localisation) against a construct reference standard (panel diagnosis). This trial is registered with the International Standard Randomised Controlled Trial, number ISRCTN03982913, and has been completed.
FINDINGS
284 patients completed the trial (133 in the newly diagnosed group, 151 in the relapse group). Based on the reference standard, 233 (82%) patients had small bowel Crohn's disease. The sensitivity of MRE for small bowel disease extent (80% [95% CI 72-86]) and presence (97% [91-99]) were significantly greater than that of ultrasound (70% [62-78] for disease extent, 92% [84-96] for disease presence); a 10% (95% CI 1-18; p=0·027) difference for extent, and 5% (1-9; p=0·025) difference for presence. The specificity of MRE for small bowel disease extent (95% [85-98]) was significantly greater than that of ultrasound (81% [64-91]); a difference of 14% (1-27; p=0·039). The specificity for small bowel disease presence was 96% (95% CI 86-99) with MRE and 84% (65-94) with ultrasound (difference 12% [0-25]; p=0·054). There were no serious adverse events.
INTERPRETATION
Both MRE and ultrasound have high sensitivity for detecting small bowel disease presence and both are valid first-line investigations, and viable alternatives to ileocolonoscopy. However, in a national health service setting, MRE is generally the preferred radiological investigation when available because its sensitivity and specificity exceed ultrasound significantly.

851,32406553,Alcohol Cue-Induced Ventral Striatum Activity Predicts Subsequent Alcohol Self-Administration.,"BACKGROUND
Human laboratory paradigms are a pillar in medication development for alcohol use disorders (AUD). Neuroimaging paradigms, in which individuals are exposed to cues that elicit neural correlates of alcohol craving (e.g., mesocorticolimbic activation), are increasingly utilized to test the effects of AUD medications. Elucidation of the translational effects of these neuroimaging paradigms on human laboratory paradigms, such as self-administration, is warranted. The current study is a secondary analysis examining whether alcohol cue-induced activation in the ventral striatum is predictive of subsequent alcohol self-administration in the laboratory.
METHODS
Non-treatment-seeking heavy drinkers of East Asian descent (n = 41) completed a randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind, crossover experiment on the effects of naltrexone on neuroimaging and human laboratory paradigms. Participants completed 5 days of study medication (or placebo); on day 4, they completed a neuroimaging alcohol taste cue-reactivity task. On the following day (day 5), participants completed a 60-minute alcohol self-administration paradigm.
RESULTS
Multilevel Cox regressions indicated a significant effect of taste cue-elicited ventral striatum activation on latency to first drink, Wald χ 2 = 2.88, p = 0.05, such that those with higher ventral striatum activation exhibited shorter latencies to consume their first drink. Similarly, ventral striatum activation was positively associated with total number of drinks consumed, F(1, 38) = 5.90, p = 0.02. These effects were significant after controlling for alcohol use severity, OPRM1 genotype, and medication. Other potential regions of interest (anterior cingulate, thalamus) were not predictive of self-administration outcomes.
CONCLUSIONS
Neuroimaging alcohol taste cue paradigms may be predictive of laboratory paradigms such as self-administration. Elucidation of the relationships among different paradigms will inform how these paradigms may be used synergistically in experimental medicine and medication development.",2020,"Other potential regions of interest (anterior cingulate, thalamus) were not predictive of self-administration outcomes.

852,31982328,Psychoneuroendocrinoimmunology-based meditation (PNEIMED) training reduces salivary cortisol under basal and stressful conditions in healthy university students: Results of a randomized controlled study.,"BACKGROUND
Meditation represents an effective and safe practice to lower distress and promote well-being. PsychoNeuroEndocrinoImmunology-based Meditation (PNEIMED) is a validated method that can reduce stress-related symptoms and salivary cortisol secretion. To date, few randomised controlled trials (RCTs) have assessed cortisol levels through salivary samples, collected both in the morning phase and during acute mental stress elicitation, in healthy young subjects following brief meditation training.
AIM
The present study aims to investigate, in healthy young undergraduate students, the effects of a brief PNEIMED training course on HPA axis by measuring salivary cortisol levels.
METHODS
Forty students attending the Faculty of Psychology, without comorbidities and previous experience of meditation, were enrolled in the study. Twenty subjects were randomly assigned to 30 h of PNEIMED training (intervention group, IG), and twenty subjects were randomly assigned to 30 h of academic lessons (control group, CG). Salivary cortisol measures included basal morning (t0 = baseline time, collected 30 min after waking) and under stress-eliciting task values. Cortisol measurement under the stress-eliciting task was provided through the Subtraction Stress Task (SST) at scheduled time intervals (t1 = 5 min pre-SST, t2 = 10 min post-SST, t3 = 30 min = post-SST). Salivary cortisol was measured among all subjects (IG + CG) at the beginning (pre-test) and at the end (post-test, four days later) of the study.
RESULTS
ANOVA between-group analysis of basal diurnal salivary cortisol showed a significant hormone deflection in the IG at the end of the PNEIMED course (post-test) when compared to the CG (IG post-test 5.64 ± 4.2 vs CG post-test 9.44 ± 4.9; F 1,38 = 6.838; p = 0.013). RM-ANOVA within-group analysis for the IG also showed that time and condition effects were statistically significant, with Ftime = 5.438; p = 0.002 and Fcondition = 10.478; p = 0.004, respectively. The IG group presented a significant reduction in basal morning cortisol at the end of the PNEIMED course (post-test) compared to the salivary concentration at baseline (pre-test) (IG pre-test 9.42 ± 6.0 vs IG post-test 5.64 ± 4.2; F 1,38 8,354; p = 0.009). RM-ANOVA for the control group showed only the main effect of time (F 1,38 = 40.348; p < 0.001). Regarding cortisol measures under the SST-stress eliciting task, ANOVA between-groups analysis showed higher cortisol levels in the IG than in the CG before the PNEIMED course, with significant differences between groups at time t2 and time t3. After the PNEIMED course, the cortisol levels in the IG had decreased, although the differences between groups were not significant. Interestingly, ANOVA within-groups analysis showed that in the IG, the cortisol levels post-test (after the PNEIMED course) were lower than at pre-test (before the PNEIMED course), showing a significant difference of cortisol salivary concentration between conditions at t3 (F = 5.326; p = 0.032). In the control group, the post-hoc analyses for pairwise comparisons between conditions (pre-test vs post-test) did not show significant differences.
CONCLUSION
Although the low number of subjects enrolled in the study does not allow for definitive conclusions to be drawn, the present findings confirmed the capability of the PNEIMED method to lower stress hormone secretion both at baseline and under acute mental stimulation in a group of young naïve practitioners and make a contribution to the existing literature by increasing the number of published RCTs about the topic.",2020,"RM-ANOVA for the control group showed only the main effect of time (F 1,38 = 40.348; p < 0.001).","['healthy university students', 'Forty students attending the Faculty of Psychology, without comorbidities and previous experience of meditation, were enrolled in the study', 'healthy young subjects', 'healthy young undergraduate students', 'Twenty subjects']","['PsychoNeuroEndocrinoImmunology-based Meditation (PNEIMED', 'PNEIMED training (intervention group, IG', 'brief meditation training', 'Psychoneuroendocrinoimmunology-based meditation (PNEIMED) training', 'academic lessons (control group, CG']","['Salivary cortisol measures included basal morning (t0\xa0= baseline time, collected 30\xa0min after waking) and under stress-eliciting task values', 'salivary concentration', 'basal morning cortisol', 'basal diurnal salivary cortisol', 'cortisol levels', 'Salivary cortisol', 'hormone deflection', 'salivary cortisol under basal and stressful conditions', 'time and condition effects', 'cortisol salivary concentration']","[{'cui': 'C0041740', 'cui_str': 'Universities'}, {'cui': 'C0038492', 'cui_str': 'Student (occupation)'}, {'cui': 'C1456498', 'cui_str': 'Attended'}, {'cui': 'C0015535', 'cui_str': 'Faculty'}, {'cui': 'C0033909', 'cui_str': 'Psychology'}, {'cui': 'C0205156', 'cui_str': 'Previous (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0150277'}, {'cui': 'C0557651', 'cui_str': 'Study (environment)'}, {'cui': 'C0332239', 'cui_str': 'Young (qualifier value)'}]","[{'cui': 'C0178499', 'cui_str': 'Base'}, {'cui': 'C0150277'}, {'cui': 'C0220931', 'cui_str': 'Functional training'}, {'cui': 'C0439745', 'cui_str': 'Grouped (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C1879313', 'cui_str': 'Brief (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0009932', 'cui_str': 'Control Groups'}]","[{'cui': 'C0442040', 'cui_str': 'Salivary (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0201968', 'cui_str': 'Cortisol measurement (procedure)'}, {'cui': 'C1879489', 'cui_str': 'Measures (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0332257', 'cui_str': 'Including (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0205112', 'cui_str': 'Basal (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0332170', 'cui_str': 'Morning (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C1632851', 'cui_str': 'Times'}, {'cui': 'C0439232', 'cui_str': 'min (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0442696', 'cui_str': 'Waking (observable entity)'}, {'cui': 'C0038435', 'cui_str': 'Stress - value'}, {'cui': 'C1273875', 'cui_str': 'Values (community)'}, {'cui': 'C0086045', 'cui_str': 'Concentration'}, {'cui': 'C0332169', 'cui_str': 'Daytime (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0019932', 'cui_str': 'Hormones'}, {'cui': 'C0348080', 'cui_str': 'Condition (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C1280500', 'cui_str': 'Effect (qualifier value)'}]",20.0,0.0431604,"RM-ANOVA for the control group showed only the main effect of time (F 1,38 = 40.348; p < 0.001).","[{'ForeName': 'Anna Giulia', 'Initials': 'AG', 'LastName': 'Bottaccioli', 'Affiliation': 'Faculty of Psychology, University ""Vita-Salute San Raffaele"", Milan, Italy; Italian Society of Psycho Neuro Endocrino Immunology (SIPNEI), Italy.

853,31981557,Effect of facility-based HIV self-testing on uptake of testing among outpatients in Malawi: a cluster-randomised trial.,"BACKGROUND
HIV self-testing increases testing uptake in sub-Saharan Africa but scale-up is challenging because of resource constraints. We evaluated an HIV self-testing intervention integrated into high-burden outpatient departments in Malawi.
METHODS
In this cluster-randomised trial, we recruited participants aged 15 years or older from 15 outpatient departments at high-burden health facilities (including health centres, mission hospitals, and district hospitals) in central and southern Malawi. The trial was clustered at the health facility level. We used constrained randomisation to allocate each cluster (1:1:1) to one of the following groups: standard provider-initiated testing and counselling with no intervention (provider offered during consultations), optimised provider-initiated testing and counselling (with additional provider training and morning HIV testing), and facility-based HIV self-testing (Oraquick HIV self-test, group demonstration and distribution, and private spaces for interpretation and counselling). The primary outcome was the proportion of outpatients tested for HIV on the day of enrolment, measured through exit surveys with a sample of outpatients. Analyses were on an intention-to-treat basis. The trial is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT03271307, and Pan African Clinical Trials, PACTR201711002697316.
FINDINGS
Between Sept 12, 2017, and Feb 23, 2018, 5885 outpatients completed an exit survey-2097 in the HIV self-testing group, 1951 in the standard provider-initiated testing and counselling group, and 1837 in the optimised provider-initiated testing and counselling group. 1063 (51%) of 2097 patients in the HIV self-testing group had HIV testing on the same day as enrolment, compared with 248 (13%) of 1951 in the standard provider-initiated testing and counselling group and 261 (14%) of 1837 in the optimised provider-initiated testing and counselling group. The odds of same-day HIV testing were significantly higher in the facility-based HIV self-testing group compared with either standard provider-initiated testing and counselling (adjusted odds ratio 8·52, 95% CI 3·98-18·24) or optimised provider-initiated testing and counselling (6·29, 2·96-13·38). Around 4% of those tested in the standard provider-initiated testing and counselling and optimised provider-initiated testing and counselling groups felt coerced to test, and around 1% felt coerced to share test results. No coercion was reported in the facility-based HIV self-testing group.
INTERPRETATION

854,32406431,Adjunctive vitamin A and D during pulmonary tuberculosis treatment: a randomized controlled trial with a 2 × 2 factorial design.,"BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE
Vitamin A and D have immunoregulatory effects and may improve the response to pulmonary tuberculosis treatment. The interaction of vitamin A and D on pulmonary tuberculosis treatment has not been studied. The objective is to investigate the effects of adjunctive supplementation of vitamin A, D and their interaction on the outcome of pulmonary tuberculosis treatment, primarily time to sputum smear conversion.
METHODS
We conducted a randomized controlled trial with a 2 × 2 factorial design in Qingdao, China. Eight hundred patients were enrolled to receive standard pulmonary tuberculosis therapy alone (control), or together with vitamin A (2000 IU d-1), or vitamin D (400 IU d-1) or a combination of vitamin A (2000 IU d-1) and D (400 IU d-1) during the intensive-phase of pulmonary tuberculosis treatment.
RESULTS
761 patients were included in the tuberculosis symptom analysis; 521 patients with positive baseline sputum smear results were included in the sputum smear analysis. The allocation to vitamin A or D did not significantly influence the time to sputum smear conversion [vitamin A: adjusted hazard ratio: 1.021, 95% CI: (0.821, 1.271); vitamin D: adjusted hazard ratio: 0.949, 95% CI: (0.760, 1.185)]. No significant interaction was observed between vitamin A and D supplementation (p = 0.660). Vitamin D supplementation significantly relieved the tuberculosis symptoms as indicated by decreased TBscore [mean difference: -0.2, 95% CI: (-0.4, 0)] in week 2 to 4.
CONCLUSIONS
Adjunctive supplementation of vitamin A and/or D did not improve the time to smear conversion in pulmonary tuberculosis patients. However vitamin D supplementation significantly improved tuberculosis symptoms during the first month of pulmonary tuberculosis treatment.",2020,"Vitamin D supplementation significantly relieved the tuberculosis symptoms as indicated by decreased TBscore [mean difference: -0.2, 95% CI: (-0.4, 0)] in week 2 to 4.

855,31974670,Delayed cord clamping in Rh-alloimmunised infants: a randomised controlled trial.,"Despite advancement in medical care, Rh alloimmunisation remains a major cause of neonatal hyperbilirubinaemia, neuro-morbidity, and late-onset anaemia. Delayed cord clamping (DCC), a standard care now-a-days, is yet not performed in Rh-alloimmunised infants due to paucity of evidence. Hence, we randomised these infants of 28- to 41-week gestation to delayed cord clamping (N = 36) or early cord clamping (N = 34) groups. The primary outcome variable was venous packed cell volume (PCV) at 2 h of birth. The secondary outcomes were incidence of double volume exchange transfusion (DVET) and partial exchange transfusion (PET), duration of phototherapy (PT), functional echocardiography (parameters measured: superior vena cava flow, M-mode fractional shortening, left ventricular output, myocardial perfusion index, and inferior vena cava collapsibility) during hospital stay, and blood transfusion (BT) until 14 weeks of life. Neonates were managed as per unit protocol. The baseline characteristics of enrolled infants were comparable between the groups. The median (IQR) gestation and mean (SD) birth weight of enrolled infants were 35 (33-37) weeks and 2440 (542) g, respectively. The DCC group had a higher mean PCV at 2 h of life (48.4 ± 9.2 vs. 43.5 ± 8.7, mean difference 4.9% (95% CI 0.6-9.1), p = 0.03).

However, it is characterised, for surgeons, by high post-surgical recurrence and high incidence of post-surgical wound complications. Due to that fact, this retrospective randomised clinical study was designed to evaluate the surgical procedure effect of Z-plasty (ZP), compared with convention simple excision (SE). A total of 67 patients from May 2015 to May 2019 in our department were studied into two groups randomly, the group of ZP and the group of SE. The patients' characteristics, surgical data, hospital length of stay (LOS), and post-surgery complications were recorded. Statistical approaches were proceed with P-value analysis. The results are as follows.

The estimated blood loss, specimen volume, distance to anus, and drain output on the first day of post-surgery between the two groups were not statistically significant, either. However, surgical time in the ZP group was longer than that in the SE group (P < .0001). LOS in the ZP group was obviously shorter than that in the SE group (P = .0051). Furthermore, the patients of the ZP group were tending to suffer from fewer post-surgical complications than the ones of the SE group.

858,32406601,Goal achievement of A1C and LDL in a Randomized Trial Comparing Colesevelam vs. Ezetimibe: GOAL-RCT.,"AIMS
To compare the efficacy and safety of colesevelam and ezetimibe as second-line LDL lowering options in type 2 diabetes (T2D).
MATERIALS AND METHODS
GOAL-RCT is a 24-week, open label, randomized, pragmatic clinical trial. Subjects with T2D with uncontrolled A1C (7.1-10%) and LDL-c (>2.0 mmol/L) were randomized 1:1 to colesevelam 3.75 g or ezetimibe 10 mg daily. The primary composite outcome was the proportion of participants achieving LDL-c target ≤2.0 mmol/L and A1C target ≤7.0%. Intention to treat analysis was performed.
RESULTS
200 subjects were enrolled: mean age 59 ± 10 years; mean A1C 8.0%; mean LDL-c 2.5 mmol/L; 97% on statin therapy. The primary composite outcome was achieved by similar proportion of participants with colesevelam (14.6%) and ezetimibe (10.5%), p non-inferiority < 0.001, p superiority = 0.41. LDL-c reduction from baseline was less with colesevelam compared to ezetimibe (14.0% vs. 23.2%, p < 0.01), as was the proportion of subjects achieving LDL-c target ≤2.0 mmol/L (47.6% and 67.0%, respectively; p = 0.007). Mean A1C was reduced with colesevelam (-0.26 ± 0.10%), while no change was observed with ezetimibe (difference p = 0.06). Adverse events (AE) and discontinuation rates were higher for colesevelam (20.2% and 31.1%) compared to ezetimibe (7.2% and 6.2%), respectively.
CONCLUSIONS
Among subjects with T2D, the initiation of colesevelam or ezetimibe led to similar achievement of primary composite outcome (LDL-c and A1c within target), with ezetimibe recording a greater LDL-c reduction and better toleratability than colesevelam.

However, CR is impractical in non-obese older humans due to potential loss of lean mass and bone density, poor adherence, and risk of malnutrition. Time-restricted feeding (TRF), which limits the daily feeding period without requiring a reduction in calorie intake, may be a promising alternative healthspan-extending strategy for midlife and older adults; however, there is limited evidence for its feasibility and efficacy in humans. We conducted a randomized, controlled pilot study to assess the safety, tolerability, and overall feasibility of short-term TRF (eating <8 h day -1 for 6 weeks) without weight loss in healthy non-obese midlife and older adults, while gaining initial insight into potential efficacy for improving cardiovascular function and other indicators of healthspan. TRF was safe and well-tolerated, associated with excellent adherence and reduced hunger, and did not influence lean mass, bone density, or nutrient intake. Cardiovascular function was not enhanced by short-term TRF in this healthy cohort, but functional (endurance) capacity and glucose tolerance were modestly improved.

860,32406655,Three-Dimensional Volumetric Changes After Socket Augmentation with Deproteinized Bovine Bone and Collagen Matrix.,"PURPOSE
Socket augmentation decreases the magnitude of alveolar ridge resorption, but the literature is limited in respect to quantifying soft tissue remodeling. The aim of this study was to determine the volumetric and linear dimensional changes at the buccal surface for both hard and soft tissues after socket augmentation treated with a xenogeneic collagen matrix in combination with bone grafting.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
Twenty-four individuals indicated for tooth extraction were enrolled in this investigation. Each participant was randomly assigned to one of two groups: (1) deproteinized bovine bone + collagen plug, or (2) deproteinized bovine bone + xenogeneic collagen matrix. A cone beam computed tomography scan was taken prior to extraction and at 6 months postextraction. Intraoral scanning images were taken at baseline, 3 months, and 6 months postextraction. Hard and soft tissue analyses were performed to compare linear ridge remodeling and volumetric changes by noncontact reverse-engineering software.
RESULTS
Both groups showed bone and soft tissue remodeling. For hard tissue remodeling, there was no significant difference between the collagen plug and collagen matrix groups. For soft tissue remodeling, the collagen matrix group showed a reduced soft tissue loss compared with the collagen plug group. The volumetric analysis demonstrated that the mean buccal soft tissue volume loss for the collagen matrix group was 68.6 mm 3 compared with 87.6 mm 3 found in the collagen plug group (P = .009) over a 6-month period.
CONCLUSION
This clinical investigation provides early evidence of using the total tissue volume to compare soft and hard tissue remodeling after socket augmentation. The results of this study demonstrated that the use of a xenogeneic collagen matrix reduced the buccal soft tissue loss after tooth extraction, but additional studies are necessary to evaluate the clinical significance of soft tissue augmentation after tooth extraction.",2020,"For hard tissue remodeling, there was no significant difference between the collagen plug and collagen matrix groups.",['Twenty-four individuals indicated for tooth extraction were enrolled in this investigation'],"['Deproteinized Bovine Bone and Collagen Matrix', 'xenogeneic collagen matrix', 'deproteinized bovine bone + collagen plug, or (2) deproteinized bovine bone + xenogeneic collagen matrix']","['mean buccal soft tissue volume loss', 'alveolar ridge resorption', 'soft tissue loss', 'bone and soft tissue remodeling', 'buccal soft tissue loss']","[{'cui': 'C3715070', 'cui_str': '24'}, {'cui': 'C0027361', 'cui_str': 'Person'}, {'cui': 'C1444656', 'cui_str': 'Indicated'}, {'cui': 'C0040440', 'cui_str': 'Tooth extraction'}, {'cui': 'C1261322', 'cui_str': 'Evaluation procedure'}]","[{'cui': 'C0007452', 'cui_str': 'Cattle'}, {'cui': 'C0262950', 'cui_str': 'Bone structure'}, {'cui': 'C0009325', 'cui_str': 'Collagen'}, {'cui': 'C4050026', 'cui_str': 'Matrix'}, {'cui': 'C0182324', 'cui_str': 'Plug'}]","[{'cui': 'C0444504', 'cui_str': 'Mean'}, {'cui': 'C0442010', 'cui_str': 'Buccal'}, {'cui': 'C0225317', 'cui_str': 'Soft tissue'}, {'cui': 'C0449468', 'cui_str': 'Volume'}, {'cui': 'C0447411', 'cui_str': 'Alveolar ridge structure'}, {'cui': 'C0262950', 'cui_str': 'Bone structure'}]",24.0,0.0170066,"For hard tissue remodeling, there was no significant difference between the collagen plug and collagen matrix groups.","[{'ForeName': 'Thiago', 'Initials': 'T', 'LastName': 'Morelli', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Shaoping', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Zhang', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Eugenia', 'Initials': 'E', 'LastName': 'Monaghan', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Kevin L', 'Initials': 'KL', 'LastName': 'Moss', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Brenda', 'Initials': 'B', 'LastName': 'Lopez', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Julie', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Marchesan', 'Affiliation': ''}]",The International journal of oral & maxillofacial implants,['10.11607/jomi.7961']
861,32406569,Loop Drainage Is Noninferior to Traditional Incision and Drainage of Cutaneous Abscesses in the Emergency Department.,"BACKGROUND
There is limited research on loop drainage (LD) compared to incision and drainage (I&D) for treatment of cutaneous abscesses. We investigated whether LD was noninferior to I&D for abscess resolution and whether there was any difference in repeat ED visits or complication rates between these techniques.
METHODS
We performed a prospective randomized controlled trial, using a convenience sample at an urban academic emergency department (ED). Subjects over 18 years who presented for first-time management of an abscess were eligible. Patients requiring specialist drainage or hospital admission or had previous treatment for the abscess were excluded. Enrolled subjects were seen 2 weeks after treatment for blinded reevaluation of abscess resolution, and the electronic medical record was reviewed for return ED visits/abscess complications.
RESULTS
Of 2,889 patients screened, 238 subjects consented and were randomized to LD or I&D. Abscess resolution was achieved in 53/65 (81.5%) of patients in the I&D arm, compared to 66/75 (88%) in the LD arm. Fewer patients in the LD group compared to the I&D group returned to the ED for abscess-related management during the following 14 days (37.3% vs 67.1%, p = 0.002). Among returning subjects, there was a significant difference in mean visits per subject between LD and I&D groups (0.5 vs. 1.2, p = 0.001). There were fewer complications among LD than I&D subjects (9.3% vs. 24.6%, p = 0.01).
CONCLUSION
Our study provides evidence that LD is noninferior to I&D in achieving complete abscess resolution at 14 days and is associated with fewer return ED visits and fewer complications. This makes it an attractive alternative treatment option for abscesses.",2020,"Fewer patients in the LD group compared to the I&D group returned to the ED for abscess-related management during the following 14 days (37.3% vs 67.1%,","['convenience sample at an urban academic emergency department (ED', 'Patients requiring specialist drainage or hospital admission or had previous treatment for the abscess were excluded', 'Subjects over 18\xa0years who presented for first-time management of an abscess were eligible', '238 subjects consented', '2,889 patients screened']","['incision and drainage (I&D', 'LD']","['repeat ED visits or complication rates', 'mean visits']","[{'cui': 'C3831015', 'cui_str': 'Convenient'}, {'cui': 'C0370003', 'cui_str': 'Specimen'}, {'cui': 'C0442529', 'cui_str': 'Urban environment'}, {'cui': 'C0562508', 'cui_str': 'Accident and Emergency department'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patient'}, {'cui': 'C0087009', 'cui_str': 'Hospital specialist'}, {'cui': 'C0012621', 'cui_str': 'Discharge'}, {'cui': 'C0184666', 'cui_str': 'Hospital admission'}, {'cui': 'C0205156', 'cui_str': 'Previous'}, {'cui': 'C0039798', 'cui_str': 'therapy'}, {'cui': 'C0000833', 'cui_str': 'Abscess'}, {'cui': 'C0332196', 'cui_str': 'Exclude'}, {'cui': 'C0439234', 'cui_str': 'year'}, {'cui': 'C0150312', 'cui_str': 'Present'}, {'cui': 'C0206209', 'cui_str': 'Time Management'}, {'cui': 'C2711213', 'cui_str': 'Consented'}, {'cui': 'C0199230', 'cui_str': 'Screening for cancer'}]","[{'cui': 'C0152277', 'cui_str': 'Incision AND drainage'}, {'cui': 'C0445022', 'cui_str': 'Loop'}, {'cui': 'C0012621', 'cui_str': 'Discharge'}]","[{'cui': 'C0205546', 'cui_str': 'Repeat emergency'}, {'cui': 'C0009566', 'cui_str': 'Complication'}, {'cui': 'C0444504', 'cui_str': 'Mean'}]",238.0,0.11263,"Fewer patients in the LD group compared to the I&D group returned to the ED for abscess-related management during the following 14 days (37.3% vs 67.1%,","[{'ForeName': 'Elissa M', 'Initials': 'EM', 'LastName': 'Schechter-Perkins', 'Affiliation': 'From the, Department of Emergency Medicine, Boston University School of Medicine, Boston, MA, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Kristin H', 'Initials': 'KH', 'LastName': 'Dwyer', 'Affiliation': 'the, Department of Emergency Medicine, Warren Alpert Medical School of Brown University, Providence, RI, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Anish', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Amin', 'Affiliation': 'the, Department of Emergency Medicine, Kaiser Permanante Medical Center, Oakland, CA, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Matthew D', 'Initials': 'MD', 'LastName': 'Tyler', 'Affiliation': 'the, Department of Emergency Medicine, Advocate Christ Medical Center, Oak Lawn, IL, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'James', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Liu', 'Affiliation': 'From the, Department of Emergency Medicine, Boston University School of Medicine, Boston, MA, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Kerrie P', 'Initials': 'KP', 'LastName': 'Nelson', 'Affiliation': 'and the, School of Public Health, Boston University, Boston, MA, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Patricia M', 'Initials': 'PM', 'LastName': 'Mitchell', 'Affiliation': 'From the, Department of Emergency Medicine, Boston University School of Medicine, Boston, MA, USA.'}]",Academic emergency medicine : official journal of the Society for Academic Emergency Medicine,['10.1111/acem.13981']

Twenty biopsy specimens, 10 from each group, were suitable for the histologic analysis. Similar amounts of new bone-to-implant contact were obtained in both the large (41.1% ± 19.5%) and the small (42.8% ± 13.2%) groups (P = .940). Small percentages of residues of xenograft were found in contact with the implant surface, with 0.6% ± 1.1% in the large group and 5.9% ± 9.5% in the small group (P = .098). The new bone density around the implants was 31.7% ± 8.2% and 34.0% ± 7.9% in the large and small groups, respectively (P = .623).

To compare the masticatory efficiency of an All-on-4 prosthesis with complete dentures on a Class I ridge with a color-mixing analysis test.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
Ten patients with fixed complete dentures on implants and an additional 10 patients with conventional complete dentures on a Class I ridge (Atwood) chewed a bicolor chewing gum (Hubba Bubba) for different numbers of cycles (5, 10, 15, and 20). The chewed gum was retrieved, scanned, and weighted to quantify masticatory efficiency.
RESULTS
This study showed higher values for implant-supported fixed complete dentures than conventional complete dentures. These findings were significant with the color-mixing test in cycles 5 and 10 between both groups. The reduction in weight was not significantly different between the two groups but was noteworthy in intercycle comparison.
CONCLUSION
Implant-supported fixed complete dentures showed superior masticatory efficiency compared with conventional complete dentures constructed over well-formed ridges in the early chewing cycles.",2020,"CONCLUSION

865,32406581,"Effect of a Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene Program on Handwashing with Soap among Household Members of Diarrhea Patients in Health Facilities in Bangladesh: A Cluster-Randomized Controlled Trial of the CHoBI7 Mobile Health Program.","OBJECTIVE
The Cholera-Hospital-Based-Intervention-for-7-days (CHoBI7) is a water treatment and handwashing with soap intervention for patients and household members which is initially delivered in a health facility setting. This study evaluated the effectiveness of CHoBI7 program delivery in increasing handwashing with soap in a health facility setting.
METHODS
A randomized controlled trial of the CHoBI7 program was conducted among 404 diarrhea patients and their accompanying household members in health facilities in Dhaka, Bangladesh. The ""Standard Message"" arm received the standard message given in Bangladesh to diarrhea patients on the use of oral rehydration solution. The ""Health Facility Visit + Soapy Water"" arm received the standard message, the CHoBI7 communication module delivered bedside to the patient; and a soapy water bottle in the health facility. The ""Health Facility Visit + Handwashing Station"" arm received this same intervention plus a small plastic handwashing station. Within 24 hours of intervention delivery, three-hour structured observation of handwashing practices at stool/vomit and food related events (key events) was conducted in health facilities.
RESULTS
Compared to the Standard Message Arm, there was significantly more handwashing with soap at key events in both the Health Facility Visit + Handwashing Station Arm (58% vs. 25%) (Odds Ratio (OR): 4.12; (95% Confidence Interval (CI): 1.86, 9.14), and the Health Facility Visit + Soapy Water Arm (51% vs. 25 %) (OR: 3.02; (95% CI: 1.41, 6.45).

866,31972848,Health Literacy and Outcomes of a Community-Based Self-Help Intervention: A Case of Korean Americans With Type 2 Diabetes.,"BACKGROUND
Although scientific reports increasingly document the negative impact of inadequate health literacy on health-seeking behaviors, health literacy's effect on health outcomes in patients with diabetes is not entirely clear, owing to insufficient empirical studies, mixed findings, and insufficient longitudinal research.
OBJECTIVE
The aim of this study was to empirically examine underlying mechanisms of health literacy's role in diabetes management among a group of Korean Americans with Type 2 diabetes mellitus.
METHODS
Data from a randomized clinical trial of a health literacy-focused Type 2 diabetes self-management intervention conducted during 2012-2016 in the Korean American community were collected at baseline and at 3, 6, 9, and 12 months. A total of 250 Korean Americans with Type 2 diabetes participated (intervention, 120; control, 130). Participants were first-generation Korean American immigrants. Health literacy knowledge was measured with the original Rapid Estimate of Adult Literacy in Medicine and the diabetes mellitus-specific Rapid Estimate of Adult Literacy in Medicine. Functional health literacy was measured with the numeracy subscale of the Test of Functional Health Literacy in Adults and the Newest Vital Sign screening instrument, which also uses numeracy. Primary outcomes included glucose control and diabetes quality of life. Multivariate analyses included latent variable modeling.
RESULTS
A series of path analyses identified self-efficacy and self-care skills as significant mediators between health literacy and glucose control and quality of life. Education and acculturation were the most significant correlates of health literacy.
DISCUSSION
Despite inconsistent findings in the literature, this study indicates that health literacy may indirectly influence health outcomes through mediators such as self-care skills and self-efficacy. The study highlights the importance of health literacy, as well as underlying mechanisms with which health literacy influences processes and outcomes of diabetes self-management.",2020,A series of path analyses identified self-efficacy and self-care skills as significant mediators between health literacy and glucose control and quality of life.,"['Korean Americans with Type 2 Diabetes', 'patients with diabetes', '250 Korean Americans with type 2 diabetes participated (intervention, 120; control, 130', 'Korean Americans with type 2 diabetes mellitus', 'Participants were first-generation Korean American immigrants']","['health literacy-focused type 2 diabetes self-management intervention', 'Community-Based Self-Help Intervention']","['glucose control and diabetes quality of life', 'health literacy', 'Health literacy knowledge', 'Functional health literacy', 'health literacy and glucose control and quality of life']","[{'cui': 'C1556095', 'cui_str': 'Koreans'}, {'cui': 'C0332307', 'cui_str': 'Type - attribute'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C0011849', 'cui_str': 'Diabetes Mellitus'}, {'cui': 'C2348831', 'cui_str': '250'}, {'cui': 'C4319550', 'cui_str': '120 (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C2587213', 'cui_str': 'Controlled (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C4319552', 'cui_str': '130 (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0079411', 'cui_str': 'Generations'}, {'cui': 'C0597921', 'cui_str': 'Korean Americans'}, {'cui': 'C0282163', 'cui_str': 'Immigrants'}]","[{'cui': 'C2362527', 'cui_str': 'Health Literacy'}, {'cui': 'C2981153', 'cui_str': 'Finding related to focusing'}, {'cui': 'C0441730', 'cui_str': 'Type 2 (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0086969', 'cui_str': 'Self-Management'}, {'cui': 'C0009462', 'cui_str': 'Community'}, {'cui': 'C0178499', 'cui_str': 'Base'}, {'cui': 'C0036588', 'cui_str': 'Self'}]","[{'cui': 'C0337438', 'cui_str': 'Glucose measurement (procedure)'}, {'cui': 'C2587213', 'cui_str': 'Controlled (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0011849', 'cui_str': 'Diabetes Mellitus'}, {'cui': 'C0034380'}, {'cui': 'C2362527', 'cui_str': 'Health Literacy'}, {'cui': 'C0376554', 'cui_str': 'Knowledge'}, {'cui': 'C0205245', 'cui_str': 'Functional (qualifier value)'}]",250.0,0.0347658,A series of path analyses identified self-efficacy and self-care skills as significant mediators between health literacy and glucose control and quality of life.,"[{'ForeName': 'Miyong T', 'Initials': 'MT', 'LastName': 'Kim', 'Affiliation': 'Miyong T.

867,30370752,"Land-based and aquatic trunk exercise program improve trunk control, balance and activities of daily living ability in stroke: a randomized clinical trial.","BACKGROUND
There are many land-based or aquatic exercise programs for improving trunk control, balance, and activities of daily living in stroke patients. However, no study has reported the effects of an exercise program that combines land-based and aquatic trunk exercises in stroke patients.
AIM
To investigate the effects of a land-based and aquatic trunk exercise (LATE) program on trunk control, balance, and activities of daily living in chronic stroke patients.
DESIGN
This study was designed as a single-blind randomized controlled trial.
SETTING
Inpatient rehabilitation ward, Goyang, Republic of Korea.
POPULATION
Twenty-nine patients participated in this study.
METHODS
Participants were randomly allocated to the LATE group (N.=14) and control group (N.=15). The LATE program consisted of land-based and aquatic trunk exercises, performed for 30 minutes per day, 5 days per week, for 4 weeks as an adjunct to 30 minutes of conventional physical therapy. The control group underwent only conventional physical therapy for 30 minutes each time, twice per day, 5 days per week, for 4 weeks. The participants were tested before and after the intervention using the Korean Trunk Impairment Scale (K-TIS) and the 5-item, 3-level Postural Assessment Scale for Stroke (PASS-3L) to assess trunk control; the 7-item, 3-level Berg Balance Scale (BBS-3L) and the Functional Reach Test (FRT) to evaluate balance; and the Modified Barthel Index (MBI) to assess activities of daily living.
RESULTS
The LATE group exhibited improvements in K-TIS, PASS-3L, BBS-3L, and MBI scores and FRT distance compared with the control group (P<0.05).
CONCLUSIONS
The results of this study suggest that the LATE program can help improve trunk control, balance, and activities of daily living in chronic stroke patients and may be used as a practical adjunct to conventional physical therapy.

868,31644514,Glottic visibility for laryngeal surgery: Tritube vs. microlaryngeal tube: A randomised controlled trial.,"BACKGROUND
Good visibility is essential for successful laryngeal surgery. A Tritube with outer diameter 4.4 mm, combined with flow-controlled ventilation (FCV), enables ventilation by active expiration with a sealed trachea and may improve laryngeal visibility.
OBJECTIVES
We hypothesised that a Tritube with FCV would provide better laryngeal visibility and surgical conditions for laryngeal surgery than a conventional microlaryngeal tube (MLT) with volume-controlled ventilation (VCV).
DESIGN
Randomised, controlled trial.
SETTING
University Medical Centre.
PATIENTS
A total of 55 consecutive patients (>18 years) undergoing elective laryngeal surgery were assessed for participation, providing 40 evaluable data sets with 20 per group.
INTERVENTIONS
Random allocation to intubation with Tritube and ventilation with FCV (Tritube-FCV group) or intubation with MLT 6.0 and ventilation with VCV (MLT-VCV) as control. Tidal volumes of 7 ml kg predicted body weight, and positive end-expiratory pressure of 7 cmH2O were standardised between groups.
MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES
Primary endpoint was the tube-related concealment of laryngeal structures, measured on videolaryngoscopic photographs by appropriate software. Secondary endpoints were surgical conditions (categorical four-point rating scale), respiratory variables and change of end-expiratory lung volume from atmospheric airway pressure to ventilation with positive end-expiratory pressure. Data are presented as median [IQR].
RESULTS
There was less concealment of laryngeal structures with the Tritube than with the MLT; 7 [6 to 9] vs. 22 [18 to 27] %, (P < 0.001). Surgical conditions were rated comparably (P = 0.06). A subgroup of residents in training perceived surgical conditions to be better with the Tritube compared with the MLT (P = 0.006). Respiratory system compliance with the Tritube was higher at 61 [52 to 71] vs. 46 [41 to 51] ml cmH2O (P < 0.001), plateau pressure was lower at 14 [13 to 15] vs. 17 [16 to 18] cmH2O (P < 0.001), and change of end-expiratory lung volume was higher at 681 [463 to 849] vs. 414 [194 to 604] ml, (P = 0.023) for Tritube-FCV compared with MLT-VCV.
CONCLUSION
During laryngeal surgery a Tritube improves visibility of the surgical site but not surgical conditions when compared with a MLT 6.0. FCV improves lung aeration and respiratory system compliance compared with VCV.

869,31957558,Prenatal docosahexaenoic acid supplementation has long-term effects on childhood behavioral and brain responses during performance on an inhibitory task.,"Introduction: Offsprings from a prenatal docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) supplementation trial, in which pregnant women were assigned to placebo or 600mg DHA/day, were followed to determine the effect of prenatal DHA supplementation on the behavior and brain function at 5.5 years (n=81 placebo, n=86 supplemented). Methods: Event-related potentials (ERP) were recorded during a visual task requiring a button press (Go) to frequent target stimuli and response inhibition to the rare stimuli (No-Go). Univariate ANOVAs were used to test differences between group and sex for behavioral measures. ERP differences were tested using a three-way mixed-design multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA). Results: There was a significant sex × group interaction for hit rate and errors of omission; there was no difference between males and females in the placebo group, but DHA males outperformed DHA females. Males overall and the placebo group made more errors requiring response inhibition; DHA females were significantly better than placebo females and DHA males. ERP P2 amplitude was larger in the DHA group. A significant N2 amplitude condition effect was observed in females and DHA group males, but not in placebo group males. Discussion: Prenatal DHA supplementation improved inhibitory performance overall, especially for females in the DHA group, possibly accounting for their conservative behavior during Go trials. Development of brain regions responsible for visual processing may be sensitive to maternal DHA status, evidenced by greater P2 amplitude. Males may benefit more from maternal DHA supplementation, indicated by the N2 condition effect seen only in males in the DHA group.",2020,Males overall and the placebo group made more errors requiring response inhibition; DHA females were significantly better than placebo females and DHA males.,['pregnant women'],"['placebo', 'Prenatal docosahexaenoic acid supplementation', 'prenatal DHA supplementation', 'Prenatal DHA supplementation', 'prenatal docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) supplementation']","['errors requiring response inhibition; DHA females', 'hit rate and errors of omission', 'N2 amplitude condition effect', 'Event-related potentials (ERP', 'ERP P2 amplitude', 'childhood behavioral and brain responses']","[{'cui': 'C0033011', 'cui_str': 'Pregnant Women'}]","[{'cui': 'C1696465', 'cui_str': 'placebo'}, {'cui': 'C0556102', 'cui_str': 'DHA - Docosahexaenoic acid supplementation'}]","[{'cui': 'C0021469', 'cui_str': 'Inhibition, function (observable entity)'}, {'cui': 'C0086287', 'cui_str': 'Females'}, {'cui': 'C0596020', 'cui_str': 'Does hit (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C0348080', 'cui_str': 'Condition (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C1280500', 'cui_str': 'Effect (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0282171', 'cui_str': 'Potentials, Event-Related'}, {'cui': 'C0337380', 'cui_str': 'Endoscopic retrograde pancreatography (procedure)'}, {'cui': 'C0231335', 'cui_str': 'Childhood (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C0006104', 'cui_str': 'Encephalon'}]",86.0,0.176488,Males overall and the placebo group made more errors requiring response inhibition; DHA females were significantly better than placebo females and DHA males.,"[{'ForeName': 'Kathleen M', 'Initials': 'KM', 'LastName': 'Gustafson', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Neurology, University of Kansas Medical Center (KUMC), Kansas City, KS, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Ke', 'Initials': 'K', 'LastName': 'Liao', 'Affiliation': 'Hoglund Brain Imaging Center, University of Kansas Medical Center, Kansas City, KS, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Nicole B', 'Initials': 'NB', 'LastName': 'Mathis', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Neurology, University of Kansas Medical Center (KUMC), Kansas City, KS, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'D Jill', 'Initials': 'DJ', 'LastName': 'Shaddy', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Dietetics and Nutrition, University of Kansas Medical Center, Kansas City, KS, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Elizabeth H', 'Initials': 'EH', 'LastName': 'Kerling', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Dietetics and Nutrition, University of Kansas Medical Center, Kansas City, KS, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Danielle N', 'Initials': 'DN', 'LastName': 'Christifano', 'Affiliation': 'Hoglund Brain Imaging Center, University of Kansas Medical Center, Kansas City, KS, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'John', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Colombo', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Psychology/Schiefelbusch Institute for Life Span Studies, University of Kansas (KU), Lawrence, KS, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Susan E', 'Initials': 'SE', 'LastName': 'Carlson', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Dietetics and Nutrition, University of Kansas Medical Center, Kansas City, KS, USA.'}]",Nutritional neuroscience,['10.1080/1028415X.2020.1712535']
870,31977929,Placebo effect in children: the role of expectation and learning.,"Classical conditioning and expectations are well-known underlying mechanisms of placebo hypoalgesia. Only little is known about their differential effect in adults, however, and even less in children. Previous studies in children evoked placebo hypoalgesia either with expectations alone or in combination with classical conditioning and revealed conflicting results. Furthermore, these studies investigated children of different ages making it even more difficult to draw conclusions. This study tried to disentangle classical conditioning and expectations by investigating them separately. To examine age effects, n = 172 children (6-9, 10-13, and 14-17 years) as well as n = 32 adults (> = 18 years) were tested using a heat pain paradigm investigating the effectiveness of creams some of which were bogusly introduced as analgesic. In addition to subjective pain intensity ratings, peripheral physiological measures were recorded. Results showed a successful induction of placebo hypoalgesia by both mechanisms for pain ratings and heart rate acceleration. Placebo hypoalgesia was particularly pronounced in children younger than 14 years. Furthermore, placebo hypoalgesia was more marked in children whose mothers raised the expectations. It was also stronger in participants who noticed a strong pain reduction during learning trials. These results encourage the use of placebo effect in clinical practice, particularly for younger children. They underline the relevance of an initial pain reduction and encourage the inclusion of parents in treatment.",2020,Placebo hypoalgesia was particularly pronounced in children under fourteen years.,"['children', '172 children (6-9, 10-13 and 14-17 years) as well as n = 32 adults (> 18 years', 'younger children', 'children under fourteen years']","['Placebo', 'placebo']","['pain ratings and heart rate acceleration', 'subjective pain intensity ratings peripheral physiological measures']","[{'cui': 'C0008059', 'cui_str': 'Child'}, {'cui': 'C4517601', 'cui_str': '172 (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0439234', 'cui_str': 'year (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0001675', 'cui_str': 'Adult'}, {'cui': 'C0337547', 'cui_str': 'Younger child (person)'}, {'cui': 'C3715152', 'cui_str': '14'}]","[{'cui': 'C1696465', 'cui_str': 'placebo'}]","[{'cui': 'C0030193', 'cui_str': 'Pain'}, {'cui': 'C0018810', 'cui_str': 'Cardiac rate'}, {'cui': 'C0000894', 'cui_str': 'Acceleration'}, {'cui': 'C0439655', 'cui_str': 'Subjective observation'}, {'cui': 'C1320357', 'cui_str': 'Pain intensity'}, {'cui': 'C0205100', 'cui_str': 'Peripheral (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0205463', 'cui_str': 'Physiologic (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C1879489', 'cui_str': 'Measures (attribute)'}]",172.0,0.0940302,Placebo hypoalgesia was particularly pronounced in children under fourteen years.,"[{'ForeName': 'Silke', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Gniß', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Clinical Psychology, Justus-Liebig-University Giessen, Giessen, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Judith', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Kappesser', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Christiane', 'Initials': 'C', 'LastName': 'Hermann', 'Affiliation': ''}]",Pain,['10.1097/j.pain.0000000000001811']
871,31615192,The therapeutic role of motor imagery during the chronic phase after total knee arthroplasty: a pilot randomized controlled trial.,"BACKGROUND
There is now ample evidence that motor imagery contributes to enhance motor learning and promote motor recovery in patients with motor disorders. Whether motor imagery practice is likely to facilitate mobility in patients suffering from knee osteoarthritis, at 6-months after total knee arthroplasty, remains unknown.
AIM
This trial was designed to evaluate the therapeutic effectiveness of implementing motor imagery into the classical course of physical therapy at 6-months after total knee arthroplasty.
DESIGN
Randomized controlled trial.
POPULATION
Twenty-four patients with unilateral total knee arthroplasty were assigned to a motor imagery or control group in a test-retest procedure, following a rehabilitation program as outpatients.
METHODS
During both the pre- and post-test, a set of strength and functional mobility measures were assessed: quadriceps strength, peak knee flexion during the swing phase, performance at the timed up and go test, stair climbing test, and 6-minute walk test, and finally Oxford knee score. In addition to a common physical therapy program, the motor imagery group practiced additional motor imagery exercises, while participants of the control group were subjected to a period of neutral activities for an equivalent amount of time.
RESULTS
Data provided evidence that motor imagery enhanced the quadriceps muscle strength of the operated knee (F (1, 22)=10.36, P=0.003), improved the peak knee flexion during the swing phase (F (1, 22)=31.52, P<0.001), and increased the speed to climb and descend stairs (F (1, 22)=14.28, P=0.001).
CONCLUSIONS
This study demonstrated the effectiveness of motor imagery exercises in gait performance and functional recovery in a small sample of individuals who underwent total knee arthroplasty. However, before drawing final conclusions sample size calculation should be conducted in the future.

Patients were randomly assigned to receive either UE videolaryngoscopy (UE) or Macintosh's direct laryngoscopy (Macintosh) group. All intubations were performed by one of six very experienced anaesthesiologists.
MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES
The patient's oral odour score was measured prior to induction of anaesthesia. The anaesthesiologists' perception of the patient's oral malodor during intubation was recorded. The shortest distance from patient's mouth to the anaesthesiologist's nose (MN distance), the exertion rating and discomfort were also measured.
RESULTS
The oral malodor score did not differ in the UE and Macintosh groups prior to the induction of anaesthesia. However, the incidence of the anaesthesiologists' perception of halitosis during intubation was significantly lower in the UE group compared with the Macintosh group (P < 0.001). Similarly, the MN distance was significantly greater in the UE group compared with the Macintosh group (P < 0.001). The first-attempt success rate was higher in the UE group compared to the Macintosh group (P < 0.001). However, the exertion scores were considerably higher in the Macintosh group. After intubation, anaesthesiologists experienced more waist and shoulder discomfort with the Macintosh than the UE technique of intubation.
CONCLUSION
Compared with direct laryngoscopy, videolaryngoscopy might reduce the anaesthesiologists' perception of the patients' oral malodor, help improve first-attempt success rate, as well as alleviate the anaesthesiologists' waist and shoulder discomfort.

873,31489809,Pillow preferences of people with neck pain and known spinal degeneration: a pilot randomized controlled trial.,"BACKGROUND
In people without cervical pathologies, changing to a latex or polyester pillow is reported to decrease waking cervical symptoms. Whether this also occurs for people with spinal degeneration in the neck is unknown.
AIM
This pilot study tested recruitment strategies for people with cervical spine degeneration, and the effect of different pillows on cervical waking symptoms, sleep quality, cervical range of motion, neck disability index and quality of life.
DESIGN
A randomized sequential-block double-blind controlled trial.
SETTING
A community-based study.
POPULATION
Adult volunteers (18+ years) with regular waking cervical symptoms (headache, cervical pain and/or stiffness, scapular pain), confirmed radiologic evidence of cervical spine degeneration, side sleeper and ""usual"" use of one pillow.
METHODS
Participants were recruited, through community advertising at medical and physiotherapy practices, local community groups, and via newspaper, radio and websites. After screening for eligibility, they tested latex and polyester pillows for 28 days each, interspersed with 28 days on ""usual"" pillow for washout, and comparison. Subjects ceased using a trial pillow if it affected sleep quality or waking symptoms. Cervical range of motion, neck disability index and quality of life were measured pre-post each pillow trial, whilst waking symptoms and sleep quality were assessed daily.
RESULTS
Of 117 local volunteers, 92 had radiologically-confirmed cervical spondylosis, and a further 45 (48.9%) were excluded for medical conditions, sleep position and/or pillow use. Approximately 70% ""usual"" pillows were polyester. Overall no pillow significantly altered any outcome measure. Considering trends however, the polyester pillow significantly increased side flexion range of movement on waking and showed some effect on nocturnal-waking cervical pain. The latex pillow did not perform well on any outcome measure. Significantly more subjects completed the polyester pillow trial than the latex pillow trial (post-hoc power 80% vs. 55%).
CONCLUSIONS
Well-powered studies to truly detect pillow impact on waking symptoms and sleep quality require 400+ symptomatic subjects.

874,30788810,Pretreatment with glucose-insulin-potassium improves ventricular performances after coronary artery bypass surgery: a randomized controlled trial.,"Heart failure is the main cause of poor outcome following open heart surgery and experimental studies have demonstrated that glucose-insulin-potassium (GIK) infusion exerts cardioprotective effects by reducing myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injuries. This randomized controlled trial was designed to assess the effects of GIK on left ventricular function in moderate-to-high risk patients undergoing on-pump isolated coronary artery bypass surgery (CABGS), or combined with aortic valve replacement. The primary outcomes were the effects of GIK on two- and three-dimensional left ventricular ejection fraction (2D and 3D-LVEF), and on transmitral flow propagation velocity (Vp), that occurred between the pre- and post-CPB periods. GIK administration was associated with favorable interaction effects (p < 0.001) on 2D-LVEF, 3D-LVEF and Vp changes over the study periods. In GIK pretreated patients (N = 54), 2-D and 3D-LVEF and Vp increased slightly during surgery (mean difference [MD] + 3.5%, 95% confidence interval [95% CI] - 0.2 to 7.1%, MD + 4.0%, 95% CI 0.6-7.4%, and MD + 22.2%, 95% CI 16.0-28.4%, respectively). In contrast, in the Placebo group (N = 46), 2D-and 3D-LVEF, as well as Vp all decreased after CPB (MD - 7.5% [- 11.6 to - 3.4%], MD - 12.0% [- 15.2 to - 8.8%] and MD - 21.3% [- 25.7 to - 16.9%], respectively).

875,31939265,"Extracorporeal shock wave therapy for treatment of vulvodynia: a prospective, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study.","BACKGROUND
Currently, there are no effective therapy strategies for idiopathic, non-organic vulvodynia in women. ESWT (extracorporeal shock wave therapy) is a nonsurgical/noninvasive technique widely used to treat musculoskeletal diseases, muscle spasticity and hypertonia, renal and biliary calculi and urological disorders.
AIM
We examined the effects of ESWT on vulvodynia in women.
DESIGN
A prospective, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study was conducted between 2015 and 2018 following a feasibility study.
SETTING
Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital departments.
POPULATION
The study included 62 women with vulvodynia for at least 3 months.
METHODS
The women were randomly assigned to either a treatment group (N.=31) or a placebo group (N.=31). The patients in the treatment group received perineally applied ESWT weekly (3000 pulses each for four consecutive weeks). The energy flux density was 0.25 mJ/mm2, frequency 4 Hz, focus zone 0-30 mm, therapeutic efficacy 0-90 mm, stand-off II. The device used was a standard electromagnetic shock wave unit with a focused shock wave handpiece. The position of the shock wave transducer was changed six times after every 500 pulses. Patients in the placebo group underwent the same treatment procedure, but the handpiece was provided with a placebo stand-off that disabled energy transmission. Subjective pain was self-evaluated by each patient using two tools before and after treatment: a 10 cm linear visual analogue scale (VAS, 0-10) and a cotton-swab test (CST, Goetsch scale 0-4). Follow-ups were done 1, 4, and 12 weeks post-ESWT.
RESULTS
In all, 61 women completed the study. We tested for differences in the VAS and CST within and between the treatment and placebo groups. The testing was between before treatment and particular follow-up. We found significant changes in the treatment group. Reductions in VAS (P<0.01) and CST (P<0.01) were observed at all three follow-ups. At all assessments, pain reduction was always >30%. In the placebo group there were no statistically significant changes between before and after treatment. There were no differences between the treatment and placebo groups before treatment but statistically significant differences at all three follow-ups (VAS P<0.01); CST P<0.01).
CONCLUSIONS
ESWT seems to reduce pain perception in our treatment group. Thus, we are encouraged to explore this technique further.
CLINICAL REHABILITATION IMPACT

876,32406725,Are Fitbits implicated in body image concerns and disordered eating in women?,"OBJECTIVE
Using a daily monitoring framework, we examined the psychological consequences of Fitbit self-tracking on state body satisfaction, disordered eating (DE; i.e., binge eating and dietary restraint), levels of exercise engagement, and motivations (appearance vs. fitness/health) in adult women. A further aim within the Fitbit group was to assess whether the level of steps achieved on 1 day would be associated with the state-based outcome measures on the subsequent day.
METHOD
In total, 262 participants who had never used a wearable fitness self-tracking device were allocated to a Fitbit ( n = 101) or control condition ( n = 161). Participants provided baseline data on sociodemographics, eating pathology, and exercise and then completed a 10-day Ecological Momentary Assessment (EMA) protocol assessing exercise amount and motives, body satisfaction, and DE symptoms via a mobile application. Those in the Fitbit condition wore a Fitbit over the entire assessment period.
RESULTS
The use of a Fitbit over a 10-day period had no significant effects on exercise behavior or body satisfaction compared to a control group. However, those in the Fitbit group were more likely to exercise to reach fitness goals and less likely to engage in dietary restraint and binge-eating behavior. Among participants in the Fitbit condition, steps achieved the previous day were not predictive of exercise engagement, body satisfaction, or DE symptoms on the subsequent day.
CONCLUSIONS

877,32406728,A cluster randomized controlled trial of a positive physical activity intervention.,"OBJECTIVE
Due to global urbanization, technological advancements, and increasing convenience in daily activities, reduced energy expenditure in all aspects of life has become a major public health concern. A positive physical activity (PPA) intervention was developed to promote physical activity and fitness among Hong Kong families. PPA utilizes positive affective attitudes to circumvent barriers to health behavior change by helping families associate feelings of enjoyment with physical activity. Zero-Time Exercise (ZTEx) was introduced and promoted as a foot-in-the-door approach.
METHOD
Using a community-based collaborative approach, the research team worked with social service organizations, a government department, and schools to implement a cluster randomized controlled crossover trial at a citywide scale. A total of 1,983 eligible participants from 1,467 families were recruited from all 18 districts in Hong Kong. Data were collected using structured questionnaires and physical fitness assessments at preintervention and 1-month and 3-month follow-up.
RESULTS
PPA was effective in increasing ZTEx and ZTEx with family members at 1-month and 3-month follow-up and in improving balance and endurance at 3-month follow-up. Semistructured focus groups provided further support for the intervention effectiveness and added in-depth insights into the participants' motivational, interpersonal, and affective experiences.
CONCLUSION
The results not only shed light on the intervention's effectiveness for physical activity and fitness but also demonstrated that the community-based collaborative approach was successful in engaging relevant stakeholders in an active and fruitful partnership with effective capacity building for program development.

878,31276981,Evaluating the addition of bevacizumab to endocrine therapy as first-line treatment for hormone receptor-positive metastatic breast cancer: a pooled analysis from the LEA (GEICAM/2006-11_GBG51) and CALGB 40503 (Alliance) trials.,"BACKGROUND
Randomised trials comparing the efficacy of standard endocrine therapy (ET) versus experimental ET + bevacizumab (Bev) in 1st line hormone receptor-positive patients with metastatic breast cancer have thus far shown conflicting results.
PATIENTS AND METHODS
We pooled data from two similar phase III randomised trials of ET ± Bev (LEA and Cancer and Leukemia Group B 40503) to increase precision in estimating treatment effect. Primary end-point was progression-free survival (PFS). Secondary end-points were overall survival (OS), objective response rate (ORR), clinical benefit rate (CBR) and safety. Exploratory analyses were performed within subgroups defined by patients with recurrent disease, de novo disease, prior endocrine sensitivity or resistance and reported grades III-IV hypertension and proteinuria.
RESULTS
The pooled sample consisted of 749 patients randomised to ET or ET + Bev. Median PFS was 14.3 months for ET versus 19 months for ET + Bev (unadjusted hazard ratio [HR] 0.77; 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.66-0.91; p < 0.01). ORR and CBR with ET and ET + Bev were 40 versus 61% (p < 0.01) and 64 versus 77% (p < 0.01), respectively. There was no difference in OS (HR 0.96; 95% CI 0.77-1.18; p = 0.68). PFS was superior for ET + Bev for endocrine-sensitive patients (HR 0.68; 95% CI 0.53-0.89; p = 0.004). Grade III-IV hypertension (2.2 versus 20.1%), proteinuria (0 versus 9.3%), cardiovascular (0.5 versus 4.2%) and liver events (0 versus 2.9%) were significantly higher for ET + Bev (all p < 0.01). Hypertension and proteinuria were not predictors of efficacy (interaction test p = 0.33).
CONCLUSION
The addition of Bev to ET increased PFS overall and in endocrine-sensitive patients but not OS at the expense of significant additional toxicity.

879,31314952,Nerve growth factor-induced muscle hyperalgesia facilitates ischaemic contraction-evoked pain.,"BACKGROUND
Intramuscular injection of Nerve Growth Factor (NGF) may influence the responsiveness of active chemo-sensitive channels affecting muscle pain sensitivity. This double-blinded crossover study in healthy humans assessed contraction-evoked pain responses and pain sensitivity during acute ischaemia in the tibialis anterior (TA) muscle before and 24 hr after five distributed NGF injections (1 µg, 4 cm interval) compared with control injections (isotonic-saline).
METHODS
Twenty-one subjects participated in two experimental phases, each including five sessions over 7 days, with a gap of 4 weeks in-between. Muscle pain intensity evoked with daily functional tasks (Likert scale score) was collected using a paper diary. Pain intensity evoked by ischaemic and non-ischaemic contractions numerical rating scale (NRS) was collected at Day0 and Day1. Pressure pain thresholds (PPTs) on the TA were recorded before (Day0), 3 hr, 1, 3, and 7 days post-injection, and after the ischaemic-contractions and post-cuff deflation at Day0 and Day1.
RESULTS
Increased Likert scores of pain were present for 7 days after NGF compared to control injections (p < .05). Higher NRS pain scores of ischaemic-contractions were seen when contracting the muscle injected with NGF compared to baseline (p = .003) and control (p = .012). Pain during non-ischaemic contractions was not significantly affected by NGF injections. Decreased PPTs were found at 3 hr, Day1 and Day3 post-injection (p < .05) in both conditions. Compared with pre-contractions, PPTs were increased following ischaemic contractions at Day0 (p < .05) and Day1 (p < .05) in both conditions.
CONCLUSION
This study showed that ischaemic contraction-evoked pain was facilitated in an NGF-sensitized muscle.
SIGNIFICANCE
Acidification of the muscle environment may affect muscle nociceptors and pain by different mechanisms, including activation of ASIC 3 and TRPV1. In this study, pain evoked following ischaemic contractions was increased in the Nerve Growth Factor (NGF)-sensitized muscle compared with non-ischaemic contractions and in the non-sensitized muscle. These findings illustrate that responses of peripheral afferents under ischaemic conditions are altered by a pre-sensitized muscle. This highlights the role of growth factors, including NGF, in peripheral muscle sensitization with clinical implications for ischaemic myalgia.",2019,"RESULTS

880,31523904,Evaluation of the effects of sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 inhibition with empagliflozin on morbidity and mortality in patients with chronic heart failure and a preserved ejection fraction: rationale for and design of the EMPEROR-Preserved Trial.,"BACKGROUND
The principal biological processes that characterize heart failure with a preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) are systemic inflammation, epicardial adipose tissue accumulation, coronary microcirculatory rarefaction, myocardial fibrosis and vascular stiffness; the resulting impairment of left ventricular and aortic distensibility (especially when accompanied by impaired glomerular function and sodium retention) causes increases in cardiac filling pressures and exertional dyspnoea despite the relative preservation of left ventricular ejection fraction. Independently of their actions on blood glucose, sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors exert a broad range of biological effects (including actions to inhibit cardiac inflammation and fibrosis, antagonize sodium retention and improve glomerular function) that can ameliorate the pathophysiological derangements in HFpEF. Such SGLT2 inhibitors exert favourable effects in experimental models of HFpEF and have been found in large-scale trials to reduce the risk for serious heart failure events in patients with type 2 diabetes, many of whom were retrospectively identified as having HFpEF.
STUDY DESIGN
The EMPEROR-Preserved Trial is enrolling ≈5750 patients with HFpEF (ejection fraction >40%), with and without type 2 diabetes, who are randomized to receive placebo or empagliflozin 10 mg/day, which is added to all appropriate treatments for HFpEF and co-morbidities.
STUDY AIMS

881,31944270,Iontophoretic delivery of methotrexate in the treatment of palmar psoriasis: A randomised controlled study.,"BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES
Palmoplantar psoriasis is a localised variant of psoriasis. Topical therapy is the preferred treatment modality, but in severe and recalcitrant cases, systemic drugs like methotrexate are prescribed, with potential for significant adverse effects. Iontophoresis is gaining popularity in enhancing the transdermal delivery of drugs in ionic state. This study was undertaken to evaluate and compare the efficacy of topical methotrexate by iontophoresis technique with clobetasol propionate 0.05% ointment in the treatment of palmar psoriasis.
METHODS
This was a prospective randomised controlled study conducted on patients with palmar psoriasis. Group 1 patients (n = 31) were treated with once weekly iontophoretic delivery of methotrexate over 6 sittings, and group 2 patients (n = 31) were treated with clobetasol propionate 0.05% ointment, twice daily for 6 weeks. Severity of palmar psoriasis was assessed by modified Palmoplantar Pustular Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (m-PPPASI), and treatment was considered as satisfactory when there was >50% improvement.
RESULTS
Sixty two patients were recruited, of which 50 completed the study. Eight out of 25 (32%) patients in group 1 and 12 out of 25 (48%) patients in group 2 showed satisfactory improvement at the end of 6 weeks. However, this difference was statistically not significant (P = 0.25). Burn injury was noted in 12 (48%) group 1 patients with no adverse effects in group 2.
CONCLUSION
Iontophoretic delivery of methotrexate is a promising therapeutic modality, the efficacy of which is comparable to that of clobetasol propionate ointment in the treatment of palmar psoriasis.",2020,"Burn injury was noted in 12 (48%) group 1 patients with no adverse effects in group 2.

882,31944277,Characterisation of the inflammatory response triggered by topical ingenol mebutate 0.05% gel in basal cell carcinoma.,"BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVE
Ingenol mebutate gel is approved for actinic keratosis field therapy, but little has been published as a treatment of basal cell carcinoma (BCC). Our objective is to characterise the histopathological changes and the infiltrating cell populations to better understand its mechanism of action.
METHODS
Sixteen patients with various BCC subtypes were prospectively evaluated and treated once daily for two consecutive days with ingenol mebutate gel 0.05% under occlusion. Patients were randomised to two arms: the first arm was biopsied between the third and the tenth day after treatment initiation ('early immune response'), and the second arm was biopsied at day 30 after treatment initiation ('late immune response'). The immunopathology was evaluated by immunohistochemistry: anti-CD3, anti-CD4, anti-CD8, anti-CD20, anti-CD56, anti-CD68, anti-Bcl-2, anti-CASP3, anti-FoxP3, anti-GrzB and anti-TIA-1.
RESULTS
Ten BCCs were in complete remission after 2 years of follow-up. The early immune response was characterised by a quick recruitment of T lymphocytes, macrophages and natural killer cells. At later time-points, T-regulatory cells and some pro-apoptotic markers were detected. Treatment-related adverse events were described.
CONCLUSION
Ingenol mebutate gel produces a transient immuno-inflammatory response and an important necrosis reaction in BCCs. Larger studies will be required to determine the maximum effective tolerated dose of ingenol mebutate gel for BCC.",2020,"Treatment-related adverse events were described.

883,31912434,"A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Trial of Ibuprofen Lysinate in Comparison to Ibuprofen Acid for Acute Postoperative Dental Pain.","INTRODUCTION
Ibuprofen acid is poorly soluble in the stomach, thus reaching maximum plasma levels at approximately 90 min post-dose. Ibuprofen lysinate has been developed to accelerate absorption of ibuprofen to shorten the time to analgesic efficacy. This study compared analgesic efficacy and onset of effect of a single dose of ibuprofen lysinate or ibuprofen acid in patients undergoing third molar extraction.
METHODS
Randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multi-center, parallel-group single-dose study. Adults (18-60 years) undergoing extraction of ≥ 1 third molar were randomized 2:2:1 to ibuprofen lysinate, ibuprofen acid, or placebo postoperatively. Pain relief (PAR, 5-point scale, 0 = none to 4 = complete pain relief) and pain intensity (PI, 100 mm visual analog scale) were assessed between 15 and 360 min post-dose. The primary endpoint was the weighted sum of PAR scores at 6 h (TOTPAR). Time to onset of effect, global assessment of efficacy, and adverse events were also assessed.
RESULTS
Overall, 351 patients received ibuprofen lysinate (N = 141), ibuprofen acid (N = 139), or placebo (N = 71). Both active treatments significantly reduced pain compared with placebo, from 15 min post-dose to 6 h (TOTPAR: ibuprofen lysinate: 19.57; ibuprofen acid: 19.96; placebo: 8.27). Ibuprofen lysinate was significantly more effective than placebo, but non-inferior to ibuprofen acid, at providing pain relief over 6 h. There was no significant difference between ibuprofen lysinate and ibuprofen acid for onset of analgesia. Both ibuprofen formulations were well tolerated; all adverse events were mild to moderate and considered unrelated to treatment.
CONCLUSIONS
A single dose of ibuprofen lysinate is non-inferior to ibuprofen acid in terms of analgesic efficacy, onset of action, and tolerability in patients who have recently undergone dental surgery.

Polypharmacy is common, costly, and harmful for hospitalized older adults. Scalable strategies to reduce the burden of potentially inappropriate medications (PIMs) are needed. We sought to leverage medication reconciliation in hospitalized older adults by pairing with MedSafer, an electronic decision support tool for deprescribing.
DESIGN
This was a nonrandomized controlled before-and-after study.
SETTING
The study took place on four internal medicine clinical teaching units.
PARTICIPANTS
Subjects were aged 65 years and older, had an expected prognosis of 3 or more months, and were taking five or more usual home medications.
INTERVENTION
In the baseline phase, patients received usual care that was medication reconciliation. Patients in the intervention arm also had a ""deprescribing opportunity report"" generated by MedSafer and provided to their in-hospital treating team.
MEASUREMENTS
The primary outcome was ascertained at the time of hospital discharge and was the proportion of patients who had one or more PIMs deprescribed.
RESULTS
A total of 1066 patients were enrolled, and deprescribing opportunities were present for 873 (82%; 418 during the control and 455 during the intervention phases, respectively). The proportion of patients with one or more PIMs deprescribed at discharge increased from 46.9% in the control period to 54.7% in the intervention period with an adjusted absolute risk difference of 8.3% (2.9%-13.9%). Not all classes of drugs in the intervention arm were associated with an increase in deprescribing, and new PIM starts were equally common in both arms of the study.
CONCLUSION
Using an electronic decision support tool for deprescribing, we increased the proportion of patients with one or more PIMs deprescribed at hospital discharge as compared with usual care. Although this type of intervention may help address medication overload in hospitalized patients, it also underscores the importance of powering future trials for a reduction in adverse drug events.

886,31309699,The Dapagliflozin And Prevention of Adverse-outcomes in Heart Failure (DAPA-HF) trial: baseline characteristics.,"BACKGROUND
The aims of this study were to: (i) report the baseline characteristics of patients enrolled in the Dapagliflozin And Prevention of Adverse-outcomes in Heart Failure (DAPA-HF) trial, (ii) compare DAPA-HF patients to participants in contemporary heart failure (HF) registries and in other recent HF trials, and (iii) compare individuals with diabetes, pre-diabetes and a normal glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) in DAPA-HF.
METHODS AND RESULTS
Adults with HF in New York Heart Association functional class ≥ II, a left ventricular ejection fraction ≤ 40%, an elevated N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide concentration and receiving standard treatment were eligible for DAPA-HF, which is comparing dapagliflozin 10 mg once daily to matching placebo. In patients without a history of diabetes, previously undiagnosed diabetes was defined as a confirmed HbA1c ≥ 6.5%. Among patients without known or undiagnosed diabetes, pre-diabetes was defined as a HbA1c ≥ 5.7% The remainder of patients, with a HbA1c < 5.7%, were defined as normoglycaemic. Of the 4744 patients (mean age 66 years; 23% women) randomized, 42% had known diabetes and 3% undiagnosed diabetes. Of the remainder, 67% had pre-diabetes and 33% normal HbA1c. Overall, DAPA-HF patients were generally similar to those in recent registries and in relevant trials and had high levels of background therapy: 94% angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor/angiotensin receptor blocker/angiotensin receptor-neprilysin inhibitor, 96% beta-blocker, and 71% mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist; 26% had a defibrillator. Patients with diabetes had worse HF status, more co-morbidity, and greater renal impairment but received similar HF therapy. Patients with diabetes received non-insulin hypoglycaemic therapy alone in 49%, insulin alone in 11%, both in 14%, and none in 26%.
CONCLUSIONS
Patients randomized in DAPA-HF were similar to those in other contemporary HF with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) registries and trials. These patients were receiving recommended HFrEF therapy and those with diabetes were also treated with conventional glucose-lowering therapy. Consequently, DAPA-HF will test the incremental efficacy and safety of dapagliflozin in HFrEF patients with and without diabetes.

887,31837079,Improved Display of Hepatic Arterial Anatomy Using Differential Subsampling With Cartesian Ordering (DISCO) With Gadoxetic Acid-Enhanced MRI: Comparison With Single Arterial Phase MRI and Computed Tomographic Angiography.,"BACKGROUND
In clinical practice arterial anatomy evaluation is often determined using computed tomographic angiography (CTA); the effect of enhanced MRI has been neglected.
PURPOSE
To evaluate whether multiple arterial phase (MAP) images from patients who underwent differential subsampling with Cartesian ordering (DISCO) acquisition would improve the hepatic arterial display compared with single arterial phase (SAP) and CTA.
STUDY TYPE
A prospective, randomized trial.
SUBJECTS
In all, 130 patients (mean age, 55.81 ± 9.43 years; range, 35-78 years) including 89 men and 41 women.
FIELD STRENGTH/SEQUENCE
3.0T, DISCO, liver acquisition with volume acceleration-flexible (LAVA-Flex), CTA.
ASSESSMENT
A simple randomization was conducted and the study was subdivided into study part I (DISCO vs. SAP) and study part II (DISCO vs. CTA). Ten hepatic arterial segments were independently evaluated by three readers in the axial plane and the quality of hepatic arterial display was assessed using a four-point scale.
STATISTICAL TESTS
Kendall's W-test, χ 2 test, Mann-Whitney U-test, and Kruskal-Wallis one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) test.
RESULTS
Excellent interobserver agreement was obtained for hepatic arterial display (all Kendall's W values >0.80). For study part I, the mean arterial display scores for the common hepatic artery (CHA), proper hepatic artery (PHA), left hepatic artery (LHA), right hepatic artery (RHA), left gastric artery (LGA), and gastroduodenal artery (GDA) obtained with DISCO were higher than that obtained with SAP imaging (all P < 0.01). For study part II, comparable image quality for CHA (P = 0.798), PHA (P = 0.440), LHA (P = 0.211), RHA (P = 0.775) LGA (P = 0.468), and GDA (P = 0.801) was obtained with DISCO and CTA.
DATA CONCLUSION
The use of MAP acquisition with DISCO is superior to the use of SAP in hepatic arterial display and compares favorably with CTA; in the future, DISCO possibly can replace the latter ionization-related method to provide a more comprehensive evaluation of the liver arterial vessels.

888,31852021,A self-help intervention for reducing time to diagnosis in Indonesian women with breast cancer symptoms.,"OBJECTIVE
We investigated the effectiveness of a self-help intervention named PERANTARA, which aims to improve adherence to diagnostic procedures among women with breast cancer (BC) symptoms to reduce the time to a definitive diagnosis.
METHODS
With a cluster randomized crossover design across four hospitals, PERANTARA and treatment as usual (TAU) or TAU only was provided at successive periods in a randomly determined order. The main outcome was the time between the first medical consultation and the definitive diagnosis. Secondary outcomes were BC knowledge, measured by the Breast Cancer Knowledge Test (BCKT); symptoms of anxiety and depression, measured by the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS); quality of life, measured by the World Health Organization Quality of Life-BREF (WHOQOL-BREF); and health status, measured by the EQ-5D-5L. A linear mixed model analysis was conducted to analyse the outcomes.
RESULTS
We recruited 132 women with BC symptoms from four hospitals; 67 participants were in the intervention group, and 65 participants were in the control group. PERANTARA reduced the time to definitive diagnosis by 13.3 days (M [SD]: 25.90 [23.20] in the intervention group vs 39.29 [35.10] in the control group; mean difference = -13.26, 95% CI = -24.51 to -2.00, P = .02). No significant difference was found between the groups in BC knowledge, symptoms of anxiety, depression, quality of life, or health status.

Methods : Healthy participants aged 12-23 months were randomized into two groups to receive 1 or 2 doses of the tested vaccine. The interval was 28 days between two doses. Blood samples were collected at day 0 before the immunization and day 28 post-each dose. Safety observation was conducted during 28 days after each vaccination. Serious adverse event (SAE) was conducted throughout 6 month observation period. Results : Overall 301 toddles were vaccinated. Twenty-eight days post full-course vaccination, ≥97.20% toddles had titers ≥1:8 and ≥81.48% had titers ≥1:128 for MenA and MenC in the two schedules groups. There were no significant differences between the two schedule groups for each titer thresholds and serogroups.

891,31814316,Effects of walking on sundown syndrome in community-dwelling people with Alzheimer's disease.,"BACKGROUND
Sundown syndrome is an important care issue for people with dementia (PwD) and for family caregivers. Walking is a safe and simple physical activity for most PwD, yet no research has explored the effects of different long-term walking periods on sundown syndrome.
OBJECTIVES
This study aimed to determine the effects of walking on sundown syndrome, and to identify whether different walking time periods would show different effects on sundown syndrome in community-dwelling people with Alzheimer's disease.
METHODS
A quasi-experimental designed study with repeated measurements was conducted. Sixty PwD were recruited and assigned to either the control group or the morning or afternoon walking group according to their caregiver's preference. The participants in the two walking groups completed an average of 120-min walking per week, accompanied by their caregivers. Forty-six achieved the 6-month intervention. Four measurements were taken, one at the pretest and one at weeks 8, 16 and 24. The Chinese version of the Cohen-Mansfield Agitation Inventory, community form (C-CMAI) was used to assess the severity of the sundown syndrome. The generalised estimating equation (GEE) was applied for the longitudinal data analysis.
RESULTS
There was a significant change across the study period (p = .048) in the morning walking group, indicating that the score for sundown syndrome decreased when PwD walked in the morning. Considering group effects, compared to the control group, the C-CMAI scores significantly decreased after 16 weeks of walking in the afternoon walking group (p = .001) and after 24 weeks in both the morning and afternoon walking groups (p = .001), indicating that after PwD had walked for 16 weeks, sundown syndrome ameliorated in the afternoon group and continually decreased after 24 weeks in both the morning and afternoon groups. However, there was no significant group difference between the morning and afternoon walking groups during the 24-week walking intervention.
CONCLUSIONS
The results indicated that both morning walking and afternoon walking are beneficial for ameliorating the symptoms of sundown syndrome; however, walking in the afternoon may have a faster effect on the symptoms than walking in the morning. Walking is a safe, simple, feasible and effective intervention to benefit individuals with sundown syndrome.
IMPLICATIONS FOR PRACTICE

Either morning or afternoon walking is effective for decreasing sundown syndrome, and the longer the walking time, the greater the impact on sundown syndrome.",2020,"Considering group effects, compared to the control group, the C-CMAI scores significantly decreased after 16 weeks of walking in the afternoon walking group (p = .001) and after 24 weeks in both the morning and afternoon walking groups (p = .001), indicating that after PwD had walked for 16 weeks, sundown syndrome ameliorated in the afternoon group and continually decreased after 24 weeks in both the morning and afternoon groups.","[""community-dwelling people with Alzheimer's disease"", 'Sixty PwD', 'people with dementia (PwD) and for family caregivers']","[""control group or the morning or afternoon walking group according to their caregiver's preference"", 'afternoon walking']","['sundown syndrome', 'C-CMAI scores']","[{'cui': 'C0009462', 'cui_str': 'Community'}, {'cui': 'C0442519', 'cui_str': 'Domestic (environment)'}, {'cui': 'C0002395', 'cui_str': 'Alzheimer Dementia'}, {'cui': 'C0497327', 'cui_str': 'Amentia'}, {'cui': 'C0086279', 'cui_str': 'Family Caregivers'}]","[{'cui': 'C0009932', 'cui_str': 'Control Groups'}, {'cui': 'C0332170', 'cui_str': 'Morning (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0439550', 'cui_str': 'Afternoon (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0439745', 'cui_str': 'Grouped (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0558295', 'cui_str': 'Preferences (qualifier value)'}]","[{'cui': 'C1142436', 'cui_str': 'Sundowning (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C0449820', 'cui_str': 'Scores (qualifier value)'}]",,0.0219769,"Considering group effects, compared to the control group, the C-CMAI scores significantly decreased after 16 weeks of walking in the afternoon walking group (p = .001) and after 24 weeks in both the morning and afternoon walking groups (p = .001), indicating that after PwD had walked for 16 weeks, sundown syndrome ameliorated in the afternoon group and continually decreased after 24 weeks in both the morning and afternoon groups.","[{'ForeName': 'Yen-Hua', 'Initials': 'YH', 'LastName': 'Shih', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Nursing, MeiHo University, Pingtung, Taiwan ROC.'}, {'ForeName': 'Ming-Chyi', 'Initials': 'MC', 'LastName': 'Pai', 'Affiliation': 'Division of Behavioral Neurology, Department of Neurology, College of Medicine, National Cheng Kung University, Tainan, Taiwan ROC.'}, {'ForeName': 'Huey-Shyan', 'Initials': 'HS', 'LastName': 'Lin', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Health-Business Administration, Fooyin University, Kaohsiung, Taiwan ROC.'}, {'ForeName': 'Pi-Shan', 'Initials': 'PS', 'LastName': 'Sung', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Neurology, College of Medicine, National Cheng Kung University Hospital, National Cheng Kung University, Tainan, Taiwan ROC.'}, {'ForeName': 'Jing-Jy', 'Initials': 'JJ', 'LastName': 'Wang', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Nursing, National Cheng Kung University, Tainan, Taiwan ROC.'}]",International journal of older people nursing,['10.1111/opn.12292']
892,31676585,A Magic Therapy Program to Alleviate Anxiety in Pediatric Inpatients.,"OBJECTIVES
Hospitalization generates increased psychological discomfort for children and their caregivers. This anxiety can affect the patient-caretaker response to the health care team and the course of treatment. We aim to evaluate the impacts of a magic therapy program, organized and facilitated by medical students, on alleviating pediatric inpatient and caregiver anxiety.
METHODS
Patients aged 5 to 16 years admitted to an inpatient pediatric unit and their caregivers were eligible for inclusion. Patient-caregiver pairs were randomly assigned to a magic therapy intervention group or a control group. Anxiety was measured before and after the intervention by using validated self-report tools. The Facial Image Scale and Venham Picture Test were used to measure anxiety for young patients, the short State-Trait Anxiety Inventory and Facial Image Scale were used for older patients, and the short State-Trait Inventory was used for caregivers. A subset of the intervention group was reevaluated at 1 hour posttherapy. Health professionals were also surveyed regarding their opinions of the program.
RESULTS
One hundred patients and 90 caregivers were enrolled. The patient magic group's standardized anxiety was reduced by 25% ( n = 47; P < .001) posttherapy. The caregiver magic group's anxiety was reduced by 24% ( n = 34; P < .001). Data suggest that anxiety reductions lasted through at least 1 hour posttherapy. Physicians ( n = 9), nurses ( n = 8), and pediatric residents ( n = 20) supported program continuance, reported favorable impressions, and suggested patient, caregiver, and staff benefits.

893,31899739,"Did Osteoblastic Cell Therapy Improve the Prognosis of Pre-fracture Osteonecrosis of the Femoral Head? A Randomized, Controlled Trial.","BACKGROUND
In patients with nontraumatic osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH), implantation of bone marrow aspirate concentrate (BMAC) could delay the progression of osteonecrosis and improve symptoms in pre-fracture ONFH. However, the BMAC content, especially in osteoblastic stem cells, could have an important individual variability. An autologous osteoblastic cell product could improve the effect of such cell-based therapy.
QUESTIONS/PURPOSES
(1) Does autologous osteoblastic cell therapy decrease the likelihood of progression to subchondral fracture with or without early collapse corresponding to Association Research Circulation Osseous (ARCO) classification Stage III or higher, and provide a clinically important pain improvement compared with BMAC treatment alone? (2) Were patients treated with osteoblastic cell therapy less likely to undergo subsequent THA? (3) What proportion of patients in the treatment and control groups experienced adverse events after surgery?
METHODS
Between 2004 and 2011, we treated 279 patients for Stage I to II hip osteonecrosis (ON) with surgery. During that time, our general indications for surgery in this setting included non-fracture ON lesions. To be eligible for this randomized, single-blind trial, patients needed to have an ONFH Stage I or II; we excluded those with traumatic ONFH, hemoglobinopathies and positive serology for hepatitis B, C or HIV. Of those treated surgically for this diagnosis during the study period, 24% (67) agreed to participate in this randomized trial. Hips with pre-fracture ONFH were randomly treated with a core decompression procedure associated with either implantation of a BMAC (BMAC group; n = 26) or osteoblastic cell (osteoblastic cell group; n = 30). The groups were not different in terms of clinical and imaging characteristics. The primary study outcome was treatment response, defined as the absence of progression to subchondral fracture stage (ARCO stage III or higher) plus a clinically important pain improvement defined as 1 cm on a 10-cm VAS. The secondary endpoint of interest was the frequency in each group of subsequent THA and the frequency of adverse events. The follow-up duration was 36 months. We used an as-treated analysis (rather than intention-to-treat) for our efficacy endpoint, and an intention-to-treat analysis for adverse events. Overall, 26 of 26 patients in the BMAC group and 27 of 30 in the osteoblastic cell group completed the trial.
RESULTS
At 36 months, no clinically important differences were found in any study endpoint. There was no difference in the proportion of patients who had progressed to fracture (ARCO stage III or higher; 46% of the BMAC hips [12 of 26] versus 22% in the hips with osteoblastic cells [six of 27], hazard ratio, 0.47 [95% CI 0.17 to 1.31]; p = 0.15). There was no clinically important difference in VAS pain scores. No differences were found for either the WOMAC or the Lequesne indexes. With the numbers available, there was no difference in the proportion of patients in the groups who underwent THA at 36 months 15% (four of 27) with osteoblastic cells versus 35% (nine of 26) with BMAC; p = 0.09 With the numbers available, we found no differences between the treatment and control groups in terms of the frequencies of major adverse events.
CONCLUSIONS
We found no benefit to osteoblastic cells over BMAC in patients with pre-collapse ONFH; side effects were uncommon and generally mild in both groups. This study could be used as pilot data to help determine sample sizes for larger (presumably multicenter) randomized controlled trials. However, this novel treatment cannot be recommended in routine practice until future, larger studies demonstrate efficacy.

894,31898776,Pressure support ventilation-pro decreases propofol consumption and improves postoperative oxygenation index compared with pressure-controlled ventilation in children undergoing ambulatory surgery: a randomized controlled trial.,"PURPOSE
The PSVPro mode is increasingly being used for surgeries under laryngeal mask airway owing to improved ventilator-patient synchrony and decreased work of breathing. We hypothesized that PSVPro ventilation mode would reduce consumption of anesthetic agents compared with pressure control ventilation (PCV).
METHODS
Seventy children between three and eight years of age undergoing elective lower abdominal and urological surgery were randomized into PCV group (n = 35) or PSVPro group (n = 35). General anesthesia was induced with sevoflurane and a Proseal LMA™ was inserted. Anesthesia was maintained with propofol infusion to maintain the entropy values between 40 and 60. In the PCV mode, the inspiratory pressure was adjusted to obtain an expiratory tidal volume of 8 mL·kg -1 and a respiratory rate of 12-20/min. In the PSVPRO group, the flow trigger was set at 0.4 L·min -1 and pressure support was adjusted to obtain expiratory tidal volume of 8 mL·kg -1 . Consumption of anesthetic agent was recorded as the primary outcome. Emergence time and discharge time were recorded as secondary outcomes.
RESULTS
The PSVPro group showed significant reduction in propofol consumption compared with the PCV group (mean difference, 33.3 µg -1 ·kg -1 ·min -1 ; 95% confidence interval [CI], 24.2 to 42.2). There was decrease in the emergence time in the PSVPro group compared with the PCV group (mean difference, 3.5 min; 95% CI, 2.8 to 4.2) and in time to achieve modified Aldrete score > 9 (mean difference, 3.6 min; 95% CI, 1.9 to 5.2).
CONCLUSION
The PSVPro mode decreases propofol consumption and emergence time, and improves oxygenation index in children undergoing ambulatory surgery.

895,31899602,Ubrogepant Is Not Associated With Clinically Meaningful Elevations of Alanine Aminotransferase in Healthy Adult Males.,"Ubrogepant is a novel, oral calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) receptor antagonist intended for the acute treatment of migraine attacks. Ubrogepant has a chemical structure distinct from previous small-molecule CGRP receptor antagonists that were associated with elevated serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT) in clinical trials. Here, we report overall and hepatic safety data from two placebo-controlled phase I trials of ubrogepant, spray-dried oral compressed tablet (SD-OCT) in healthy male volunteers. Trial A was a pharmacokinetic (PK) trial of single (100-400 mg) and multiple (40-400 mg) ascending doses. Trial B was a dedicated hepatic safety trial assessing daily use of ubrogepant 150 mg for 28 days. Serum ALT (as hepatotoxicity biomarker) and PK data are reported. Ubrogepant was well-tolerated in both trials, with a low incidence of adverse events that did not differ greatly from placebo. Changes in mean ALT levels were minimal and similar to placebo. Over 28 days of treatment, the mean percentage change in ALT from baseline was < 5% at all time points. No participant in either trial demonstrated ALT ≥ 3× upper limit of normal at any time. Ubrogepant SD-OCT demonstrated linear PK appropriate for acute treatment of migraine, with rapid uptake (time of maximum plasma concentration (t max ): 2-3 hours) and no accumulation with daily use. Overall, there was no evidence of ubrogepant-associated hepatotoxicity with daily doses up to 400 mg for 10 days or with daily ubrogepant 150 mg for 28 days.

896,31899035,Incidence of Macular Atrophy after Untreated Neovascular Age-Related Macular Degeneration: Age-Related Eye Disease Study Report 40.,"PURPOSE
To report the natural history of untreated neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD) regarding subsequent macular atrophy.
DESIGN
Prospective cohort within a randomized, controlled trial of oral micronutrient supplements.
PARTICIPANTS
Age-Related Eye Disease Study (AREDS) participants (55-80 years) who demonstrated nAMD during follow-up (1992-2005), prior to anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) therapy.
METHODS
Color fundus photographs were collected at annual study visits and graded centrally for late age-related macular degeneration (AMD). Incident macular atrophy after nAMD was examined by Kaplan-Meier analysis and proportional hazards regression.
MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES
Incident macular atrophy after nAMD.
RESULTS
Of the 4757 AREDS participants, 708 eyes (627 participants) demonstrated nAMD during follow-up and were eligible. The cumulative risks of incident macular atrophy after untreated nAMD were 9.6% (standard error, 1.2%), 31.4% (standard error, 2.2%), 43.1% (standard error, 2.6%), and 61.5% (standard error, 4.3%) at 2, 5, 7, and 10 years, respectively. This corresponded to a linear risk of 6.5% per year. The cumulative risk of central involvement was 30.4% (standard error, 3.2%), 43.4% (standard error, 3.8%), and 57.0% (standard error, 4.8%) at first appearance of atrophy, 2 years, and 5 years, respectively. Geographic atrophy (GA) in the fellow eye was associated with increased risk of macular atrophy (hazard ratio [HR], 1.70; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.17-2.49; P = 0.006). However, higher 52-single nucleotide polymorphism AMD genetic risk score was not associated with increased risk of macular atrophy (HR, 1.03; 95% CI, 0.90-1.17; P = 0.67). Similarly, no significant differences were observed according to SNPs at CFH, ARMS2, or C3.
CONCLUSIONS
The rate of incident macular atrophy after untreated nAMD is relatively high, increasing linearly over time and affecting half of eyes by 8 years. Hence, factors other than anti-VEGF therapy are involved in atrophy development, including natural progression to GA. Comparison with studies of treated nAMD suggests it may not be necessary to invoke a large effect of anti-VEGF therapy on inciting macular atrophy, although a contribution remains possible. Central involvement is present in one third of eyes at the outset (similar to pure GA) and increases linearly to half at 3 years.",2019,"Geographic atrophy (GA) in the fellow eye was associated with increased risk of macular atrophy (hazard ratio [HR], 1.70; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.17-2.49; P = 0.006).","['Of the 4757 AREDS participants, 708 eyes (627 participants) demonstrated nAMD during follow-up and were eligible', 'Macular Atrophy after Untreated Neovascular Age-Related Macular Degeneration', 'Color fundus photographs were collected at annual study visits and graded centrally for late age-related macular degeneration (AMD', 'Age-Related Eye Disease Study (AREDS) participants (55-80 years) who demonstrated nAMD during follow-up (1992-2005), prior to anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) therapy']",['oral micronutrient supplements'],"['risk of macular atrophy', 'cumulative risk of central involvement', 'higher 52-single nucleotide polymorphism AMD genetic risk score', 'cumulative risks of incident macular atrophy', 'SNPs at CFH, ARMS2, or C3', 'rate of incident macular atrophy', 'Geographic atrophy (GA']","[{'cui': 'C0015392', 'cui_str': 'Eye'}, {'cui': 'C0589120', 'cui_str': 'Follow-up'}, {'cui': 'C1288283', 'cui_str': 'Anetoderma'}, {'cui': 'C0271084', 'cui_str': 'Neovascular age-related macular degeneration'}, {'cui': 'C0009393', 'cui_str': 'Color'}, {'cui': 'C0227817', 'cui_str': 'Uterine Fundus'}, {'cui': 'C0441468', 'cui_str': 'Photograph (physical object)'}, {'cui': 'C0332181', 'cui_str': 'Annual (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0557651', 'cui_str': 'Study (environment)'}, {'cui': 'C0441800', 'cui_str': 'Grading (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0205087', 'cui_str': 'Late (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0242383', 'cui_str': 'Maculopathy, Age-Related'}, {'cui': 'C0001792', 'cui_str': 'Elderly'}, {'cui': 'C0015397', 'cui_str': 'Eye Diseases'}, {'cui': 'C0439234', 'cui_str': 'year (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0456592', 'cui_str': '1992 (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0332152', 'cui_str': 'Before (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0078058', 'cui_str': 'Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor A'}, {'cui': 'C0087111', 'cui_str': 'Therapy'}]","[{'cui': 'C4521986', 'cui_str': 'Oral (intended site)'}, {'cui': 'C0282575', 'cui_str': 'Micronutrients'}]","[{'cui': 'C0035647', 'cui_str': 'Risk'}, {'cui': 'C1288283', 'cui_str': 'Anetoderma'}, {'cui': 'C0205099', 'cui_str': 'Central (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0205428', 'cui_str': 'Involvements (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0205250', 'cui_str': 'High (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0752046', 'cui_str': 'Single Nucleotide Polymorphism'}, {'cui': 'C0017399', 'cui_str': 'genetics'}, {'cui': 'C0449820', 'cui_str': 'Scores (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C1536085', 'cui_str': 'Dry Macular Degeneration'}]",627.0,0.0872275,"Geographic atrophy (GA) in the fellow eye was associated with increased risk of macular atrophy (hazard ratio [HR], 1.70; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.17-2.49; P = 0.006).","[{'ForeName': 'Panos G', 'Initials': 'PG', 'LastName': 'Christakis', 'Affiliation': 'Division of Epidemiology and Clinical Applications, National Eye Institute, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, Maryland; Department of Ophthalmology and Vision Sciences, University of Toronto, Toronto, Canada.'}, {'ForeName': 'Elvira', 'Initials': 'E', 'LastName': 'Agrón', 'Affiliation': 'Division of Epidemiology and Clinical Applications, National Eye Institute, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, Maryland.'}, {'ForeName': 'Michael L', 'Initials': 'ML', 'LastName': 'Klein', 'Affiliation': 'Casey Eye Institute, Oregon Health and Science University, Portland, Oregon.'}, {'ForeName': 'Traci E', 'Initials': 'TE', 'LastName': 'Clemons', 'Affiliation': 'Emmes Corporation, Rockville, Maryland.'}, {'ForeName': 'J Peter', 'Initials': 'JP', 'LastName': 'Campbell', 'Affiliation': 'Casey Eye Institute, Oregon Health and Science University, Portland, Oregon.'}, {'ForeName': 'Frederick L', 'Initials': 'FL', 'LastName': 'Ferris', 'Affiliation': 'Ophthalmic Research Consultants, LLC, Waxhaw, North Carolina.'}, {'ForeName': 'Emily Y', 'Initials': 'EY', 'LastName': 'Chew', 'Affiliation': 'Division of Epidemiology and Clinical Applications, National Eye Institute, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, Maryland.'}, {'ForeName': 'Tiarnan D', 'Initials': 'TD', 'LastName': 'Keenan', 'Affiliation': 'Division of Epidemiology and Clinical Applications, National Eye Institute, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, Maryland.

897,31762222,Comparison of the Effects of Proximal Humeral Internal Locking System (PHILOS) Alone and PHILOS Combined with Fibular Allograft in the Treatment of Neer Three- or Four-part Proximal Humerus Fractures in the Elderly.,"OBJECTIVE
To compare and analyze the clinical outcomes of the proximal humeral internal locking system (PHILOS) alone and the PHILOS combined with fibular allograft in the treatment of Neer three- and four-part proximal humerus fractures (PHF) in the elderly.
METHODS
From January 2014 to January 2018, a total of 42 elderly patients with Neer three- or four-part PHF admitted to our hospital were randomly divided into observation group and control group, with 21 patients in each group. The observation group was treated with the PHILOS combined with fibular allograft. The control group was treated with the PHILOS alone. Perioperative parameters and fracture classification were recorded in the two groups. Function results were assessed by Visual Analog Scale (VAS), Constant-Murley score (CMS), American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES) score, and the Disability of Arm-Shoulder-Hand (DASH) score. Radiological results were evaluated using the neck-shaft angle (NSA) and humeral head height (HHH), and complications were also recorded in each group.
RESULTS
There were no significant differences between the two groups in terms of preoperative status, age, gender, cause of trauma, fracture site, and fracture classification. The average follow-up time was 12 months. At the last follow-up, the VAS and DASH observation groups were lower than the control group, and there was significant difference between the two groups (P < 0.05). The CMS and ASES were higher in the observation group than the control group, and there was significant difference between the two groups (P < 0.05). The mean difference in the NSA and HHH were lower in the observation group than the control group, and there was a significant difference between the two groups (P < 0.05). There was one postoperative complication in the observation group, which was humeral head avascular necrosis (AVN). There were seven postoperative complications in the control group, including three cases of humeral head collapse and three cases of screw cutout and one case of humeral head AVN.

898,31553438,"Final overall survival results of WJTOG3405, a randomized phase III trial comparing gefitinib versus cisplatin with docetaxel as the first-line treatment for patients with stage IIIB/IV or postoperative recurrent EGFR mutation-positive non-small-cell lung cancer.","BACKGROUND
Primary analysis of the phase III study WJTOG 3405 demonstrated superiority of progression-free survival (PFS) for gefitinib (G) in patients treated with the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) gefitinib compared with cisplatin plus docetaxel (CD) as the first-line treatment of stage IIIB/IV or postoperative recurrent EGFR mutation-positive non-small-cell lung cancer. This report presents final overall survival (OS) data.
PATIENTS AND METHODS
Patients were randomized between G (250 mg/day orally) and cisplatin (80 mg/m2 intravenously) plus docetaxel (60 mg/m2 i.v.), administered every 21 days for three to six cycles. After the exclusion of 5 patients, 172 patients (86 in each group, modified intention-to-treat population) were included in the survival analysis. OS was re-evaluated using updated data (data cutoff, 30 September 2013; median follow-up time 59.1 months). The Kaplan-Meier method and the log-rank test were used for analysis, and hazard ratios (HRs) for death were calculated using the Cox proportional hazards model.
RESULTS
OS events in the G group and CD group were 68 (79.1%) out of 86 and 59 (68.6%) out of 86, respectively. Median survival time for G and CD were 34.9 and 37.3 months, respectively, with an HR of 1.252 [95% confidence interval (CI): 0.883-1.775, P = 0.2070]. Multivariate analysis identified postoperative recurrence and stage IIIB/IV disease as independent prognostic factors, with an HR of 0.459 (95% CI: 0.312-0.673, P < 0.001). Median survival time (postoperative recurrence versus stage IIIB/IV disease) were 44.5 and 27.5 months in the G group and 45.5 and 32.8 months in the CD group, respectively.
CONCLUSION
G did not show OS benefits over CD as the first-line treatment. OS of patients with postoperative recurrence was better than that of stage IIIB/IV disease, even though both groups had metastatic disease.This study was registered with UMIN (University Hospital Medical Information Network in Japan), number 000000539.",2019,"Median survival time (postoperative recurrence versus stage IIIB/IV disease) were 44.5 and 27.5 months in G group and 45.5 and 32.8 months in CD group, respectively.

899,31007059,A novel muscle cramp scale (MCS) in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).,"Objective: To develop a novel muscle cramp scale (MCS) to assess frequency, severity and clinically meaningful information related to cramps among patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Methods: This new scale comprises four 5-point subdomains: (1) triggering factors, (2) frequency, (3) location, (4) severity, and (5) the degree to which cramps affect overall daily living. Thirty patients with ALS, who experienced at least 5 cramps per week, participated in a randomized test-retest study. An additional 26 patients participated in a second study assessing cramp changes over 4 weeks using the MCS and a detailed cramp diary. Results: To establish internal reliability of the scale, a Cronbach's coefficient value of 0.75 or higher was considered acceptable. Test/retest evaluations comparing in-person and telephone administration were assessed using paired t -tests and Cohen's kappa statistics. Non-significant differences were identified, and the results revealed moderate to high agreement for each item (range 0.60 to 0.95, p < 0.0001). Scale construct validity against the cramp diary was acceptable. There were essentially no significant mean differences in muscle cramps over 4 weeks measured using the MCS and diary, respectively.

900,31883356,"Rationale and design of the AFFIRM-AHF trial: a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial comparing the effect of intravenous ferric carboxymaltose on hospitalisations and mortality in iron-deficient patients admitted for acute heart failure.","AIMS
Iron deficiency (ID) is a common co-morbidity in heart failure (HF), associated with impaired functional capacity, poor quality of life and increased morbidity and mortality. Treatment with intravenous (i.v.) ferric carboxymaltose (FCM) has shown improvements in functional capacity, symptoms and quality of life in stable HF patients with reduced ejection fraction. The effect of i.v. iron supplementation on morbidity and mortality in patients hospitalised for acute HF (AHF) and who have ID has yet to be established. The objective of the present article is to present the rationale and design of the AFFIRM-AHF trial (ClinicalTrials.gov NCT02937454) which will investigate the effect of i.v. FCM (vs. placebo) on recurrent HF hospitalisations and cardiovascular (CV) mortality in iron-deficient patients hospitalised for AHF.
METHODS
AFFIRM-AHF is a multicentre, randomised (1:1), double-blind, placebo-controlled trial which recruited 1100 patients hospitalised for AHF and who had iron deficiency ID defined as serum ferritin <100 ng/mL or 100-299 ng/mL if transferrin saturation <20%. Eligible patients were randomised (1:1) to either i.v. FCM or placebo and received the first dose of study treatment just prior to discharge for the index hospitalisation. Patients will be followed for 52 weeks. The primary outcome is the composite of recurrent HF hospitalisations and CV mortality. The main secondary outcomes include the composite of recurrent CV hospitalisations and CV mortality, recurrent HF hospitalisations and safety-related outcomes.

901,31842788,Continuous versus discontinuous suture in perineal injuries produced during delivery in primiparous women: a randomized controlled trial.,"BACKGROUND
The technique used in the repair of a perineal injury resulting from childbirth could avoid discomfort and morbidity during the postpartum period. Recent studies show inconsistent results and support the need for new research with the inclusion of new health parameters not yet studied. Therefore, this study aims to evaluate if the suture technique (continuous or interrupted) has an effect on pain and other postpartum problems, incidence of incontinence (urinary and/or fecal), and the restart of sexual relations.
METHODS
A single-blind randomized clinical trial was conducted in five hospitals in south-east Spain. The participants were primiparous women who had experienced a perineal injury during delivery (second-degree tear or episiotomy). Data was collected on sociodemographic variables, variables associated with pregnancy, labor and delivery, and the postpartum period, and outcomes during the 3 months after delivery: pain, incontinence, and restart of sexual relations. Odds ratios (OR) were calculated by binary logistic regression to assess the influence of the suture type on binary outcomes and t-test used for comparing continuous outcomes. Multivariate analyses (using logistic regression -adjusted (aOR)- and analysis of covariance) were carried out to adjust for unbalanced variables after randomization.
RESULTS
A total of 70 women were included in the intervention group (continuous suture) and 64 in the reference group (interrupted sutures). A negative association was observed (aOR = 0.39; 95% CI = 0.18-0.86) between a continuous suture and the need for analgesia at 24 h postpartum. Pain experienced by the women at 24 h postpartum was assessed as 4.4 ± 0.3 compared with a score of 3.4 ± 0.3 in the group with continuous sutures (p = 0.011). At 15 days postpartum, women in the intervention group experienced less pain (aOR = 0.38; 95% CI = 0.18-0.80) (p = 0.019). Urinary sphincter incontinence was also evaluated at 15 days, with 4.3% (n = 3) of the women in the intervention group presenting with urinary incontinence compared with 18.8% (n = 12) in the control group (aOR = 0.11; 95% CI = 0.03-0.47) (P = 0.003).
CONCLUSIONS
The women who had a continuous suture repair showed lower levels of pain from delivery to 3 months after delivery and had a lower incidence of urinary incontinence at 15 days postpartum.

In a randomized, adaptive, phase II/III, multicenter trial we studied whether prednisone/sirolimus or prednisone/sirolimus/photopheresis was more effective than prednisone/sirolimus/calcineurin-inhibitor for treating chronic graft- versus -host disease in treatment-naïve or early inadequate responders. Primary endpoints of this study were proportions of subjects alive without relapse or secondary therapy with 6-month complete or partial response in phase II, or with 2-year complete response in phase III. The prednisone/sirolimus/photopheresis arm closed prematurely because of slow accrual and the remaining two-drug versus three-drug study ended in phase II due to statistical futility with 138 evaluable subjects. The two-drug and three-drug arms did not differ in rates of 6-month complete or partial response (48.6% versus 50.0%, P =0.87), or 2-year complete response (14.7% versus 15.5%, P =0.90). Serum creatinine values >1.5 times baseline were less frequent in the calcineurin-inhibitor-free arm at 2 months (1.5% versus 11.7%, P =0.025) and 6 months (7.8% versus 24.0%, P =0.016). Higher adjusted Short Form-36 Physical Component Summary and Physical Functioning scores were seen in the two-drug arm at both 2 months ( P =0.02 and P =0.04, respectively) and 6 months ( P =0.007 and P =0.001, respectively).

903,31766216,New Zealand Bitter Hops Extract Reduces Hunger During a 24 h Water Only Fast.,"Intermittent fasting improves metabolic and cardiac health. However, increased hunger towards the end of the fasting period may affect compliance and limit its application. Our aim was to determine the effect of anorexigenic agent co-therapy on subjective ratings of appetite during the 16-24 h period of a day-long water-only intermittent fast. Thirty adult men were recruited and required to fast for 24 h from 18:00 h to 18:00 h on the same day of the week for three subsequent weeks. Treatments of either a placebo or one of two doses (high dose; HD: 250 mg or low dose; LD: 100 mg) of a bitter hops-based appetite suppressant (Amarasate®) were given twice per day at 16 and 20 h into the fast. From 18-24 h of the 24 h fast, both the HD and LD treatment groups exhibited a statistically significant ( p < 0.05) > 10% reduction in hunger. Additionally, the expected lunchtime increase in hunger that was present in the placebo group (12:00 h) was absent in both the HD and LD groups. These data suggest that appetite suppressant co-therapy may be useful in reducing hunger during intermittent fasting, and show that bitter compounds may regulate appetite independently of meal timing.",2019,"From 18-24 h of the 24 h fast, both the HD and LD treatment groups exhibited a statistically significant ( p < 0.05) > 10% reduction in hunger.",['Thirty adult men'],"['placebo', 'bitter hops-based appetite suppressant (Amarasate®', 'anorexigenic agent co-therapy']","['metabolic and cardiac health', 'subjective ratings of appetite', 'Hunger', 'hunger']","[{'cui': 'C3816446', 'cui_str': '30'}, {'cui': 'C0001675', 'cui_str': 'Adult'}, {'cui': 'C0086418', 'cui_str': 'Humans'}]","[{'cui': 'C1696465', 'cui_str': 'placebo'}, {'cui': 'C4018995', 'cui_str': 'Hop'}, {'cui': 'C0178499', 'cui_str': 'Base'}, {'cui': 'C0003620', 'cui_str': 'Appetite Suppressants'}, {'cui': 'C0450442', 'cui_str': 'Agent (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0087111', 'cui_str': 'Therapy'}]","[{'cui': 'C0018684', 'cui_str': 'Health'}, {'cui': 'C0439655', 'cui_str': 'Subjective observation'}, {'cui': 'C0003618', 'cui_str': 'Appetite'}, {'cui': 'C0020175', 'cui_str': 'Hunger'}]",30.0,0.0634686,"From 18-24 h of the 24 h fast, both the HD and LD treatment groups exhibited a statistically significant ( p < 0.05) > 10% reduction in hunger.","[{'ForeName': 'Edward', 'Initials': 'E', 'LastName': 'Walker', 'Affiliation': 'The New Zealand Institute for Plant and Food Research Limited, Auckland 1025, New Zealand.'}, {'ForeName': 'Kim', 'Initials': 'K', 'LastName': 'Lo', 'Affiliation': 'The New Zealand Institute for Plant and Food Research Limited, Auckland 1025, New Zealand.'}, {'ForeName': 'Sze', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Tham', 'Affiliation': 'The New Zealand Institute for Plant and Food Research Limited, Palmerston North 4442, New Zealand.'}, {'ForeName': 'Malcolm', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Pahl', 'Affiliation': 'The New Zealand Institute for Plant and Food Research Limited, Auckland 1025, New Zealand.'}, {'ForeName': 'Dominic', 'Initials': 'D', 'LastName': 'Lomiwes', 'Affiliation': 'The New Zealand Institute for Plant and Food Research Limited, Palmerston North 4442, New Zealand.'}, {'ForeName': 'Janine', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Cooney', 'Affiliation': 'The New Zealand Institute for Plant and Food Research Limited, Hamilton 3240, New Zealand.'}, {'ForeName': 'Mark', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Wohlers', 'Affiliation': 'The New Zealand Institute for Plant and Food Research Limited, Auckland 1025, New Zealand.'}, {'ForeName': 'Pramod', 'Initials': 'P', 'LastName': 'Gopal', 'Affiliation': 'The New Zealand Institute for Plant and Food Research Limited, Palmerston North 4442, New Zealand.'}]",Nutrients,['10.3390/nu11112754']

A high level of iron in the groundwater used for drinking may exacerbate the side-effects among MNP users. We conducted a randomized controlled trial examining the effect of a low-dose iron MNP compared with the standard MNP in children aged 2-5 years residing in a high-groundwater-iron area in rural Bangladesh. We randomized 327 children, who were drinking from the ""high-iron"" wells (≥2 mg/L), to receive either standard (12.5 mg iron) or low-dose iron (5.0 mg iron) MNP, one sachet per day for two months. Iron parameters were measured both at baseline and end-point. The children were monitored weekly for morbidities. A generalized linear model was used to determine the treatment effect of the low-dose iron MNP. Poisson regressions were used to determine the incidence rate ratios of the morbidities. The trial was registered at ISRCTN60058115. Changes in the prevalence of anemia (defined as a hemoglobin level < 11.0 g/dL) were 5.4% (baseline) to 1.0% (end-point) in the standard MNP; and 5.8% (baseline) to 2.5% (end-point) in the low-dose iron MNP groups. The low-dose iron MNP was non-inferior to the standard MNP on hemoglobin outcome (β = -0.14, 95% CI: -0.30, 0.013; p = 0.07).

905,31848765,Telephone-Delivered Mindfulness Training to Promote Medication Adherence and Reduce Sexual Risk Behavior Among Persons Living with HIV: An Exploratory Clinical Trial.,"This study explored whether telephone-delivered mindfulness training (MT) to promote medication adherence and reduce sexual risk behavior was feasible for and acceptable to people living with HIV. Participants (N = 42; 50% female; M age = 47.5 years) were randomized to MT or health coaching (HC). Pre- and post-intervention, and at 3-month follow-up, we assessed adherence to ART, sexual risk behavior, and hypothesized mediators; we also conducted individual interviews to obtain qualitative data.

906,31852444,Effects of alternate-day fasting on body weight and dyslipidaemia in patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease: a randomised controlled trial.,"BACKGROUND
Alternate-day fasting (ADF) is a novel diet therapy that may achieve reduction in body weight and improvement of dyslipidaemia, but the impact of this diet on patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) remains unknown. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of ADF on the body weight and lipid profile of individuals with NAFLD.
METHODS
NAFLD patients (n = 271) were randomised to the ADF group, time-restricted feeding (TRF) group, or the control group and subjected to the respective diet for 12 weeks. Anthropometric measurements (body weight, fat mass/fat-free mass) were performed, and plasma lipids were analysed enzymatically.
RESULTS
Within 4 weeks, the body weight decreased significantly (P < 0.001) in the ADF group by 4.56 ± 0.41 kg (6.1 ± 0.5%) and the TRF group by 3.62 ± 0.65 kg (4.83 ± 0.9%) compared to the control group, and it decreased even more after 12 weeks in both groups (ADF: - 4.04 ± 0.54 kg, 5.4 ± 0.7%; TRF: - 3.25 ± 0.67 kg, 4.3 ± 0.9%). Fat mass was significantly reduced by ADF (- 3.49 ± 0.37 kg; 11 ± 1.2%) and TRF (- 2.91 ± 0.41 kg; 9.6 ± 1.3%), with ADF leading to a further reduction in fat mass after 12 weeks (- 3.48 ± 0.38 kg; 11 ± 1.2%). Total cholesterol was significantly decreased at both time points in the ADF group (- 0.91 ± 0.07 mmol/L; 18.5 ± 1.5%) compared to the control and TRF groups. Both ADF (- 0.64 ± 0.06 mmol/L; 25 ± 1.9%) and TRF (0.58 ± 0.07 mmol/L; 20 ± 1.7%) achieved a significant reduction in serum triglycerides (P < 0.001) after 12 weeks. Changes in fat free mass, HDL, LDL, fasting insulin, glucose, liver stiffness, and systolic or diastolic blood pressure did not differ between the groups.
CONCLUSIONS
ADF appears to be an effective diet therapy for individuals with NAFLD that can achieve weight loss and improvement of dyslipidaemia within a relatively short period of time (4 to 12 weeks). Potential preventive effects of ADF on cardiovascular disease need to be confirmed by future investigations.

907,31844886,"Safety and efficacy of VB-111, an anticancer gene therapy, in patients with recurrent glioblastoma: results of a phase I/II study.","BACKGROUND
VB-111 is a non-replicating adenovirus carrying a Fas-chimera transgene, leading to targeted apoptosis of tumor vascular endothelium and induction of a tumor-specific immune response. This phase I/II study evaluated the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of VB-111 with and without bevacizumab in recurrent glioblastoma (rGBM).
METHODS
Patients with rGBM (n = 72) received VB-111 in 4 treatment groups: subtherapeutic (VB-111 dose escalation), limited exposure (LE; VB-111 monotherapy until progression), primed combination (VB-111 monotherapy continued upon progression with combination of bevacizumab), and unprimed combination (upfront combination of VB-111 and bevacizumab). The primary endpoint was median overall survival (OS). Secondary endpoints were safety, overall response rate, and progression-free survival (PFS).
RESULTS
VB-111 was well tolerated. The most common adverse event was transient mild-moderate fever. Median OS time was significantly longer in the primed combination group compared with both LE (414 vs 223 days; hazard ratio [HR], 0.48; P = 0.043) and unprimed combination (414 vs 141.5 days; HR, 0.24; P = 0.0056). Patients in the combination phase of the primed combination group had a median PFS time of 90 days compared with 60 in the LE group (HR, 0.36; P = 0.032), and 63 in the unprimed combination group (P = 0.72). Radiographic responders to VB-111 exhibited characteristic, expansive areas of necrosis in the areas of initial enhancing disease.
CONCLUSIONS
Patients with rGBM who were primed with VB-111 monotherapy that continued after progression with the addition of bevacizumab showed significant survival and PFS advantage, as well as specific imaging characteristics related to VB-111 mechanism of action.

908,31844890,A randomized controlled phase III study of VB-111 combined with bevacizumab vs bevacizumab monotherapy in patients with recurrent glioblastoma (GLOBE).,"BACKGROUND
Ofranergene obadenovec (VB-111) is an anticancer viral therapy that demonstrated in a phase II study a survival benefit for patients with recurrent glioblastoma (rGBM) who were primed with VB-111 monotherapy that was continued after progression with concomitant bevacizumab.
METHODS
This pivotal phase III randomized, controlled trial compared the efficacy and safety of upfront combination of VB-111 and bevacizumab versus bevacizumab monotherapy. Patients were randomized 1:1 to receive VB-111 1013 viral particles every 8 weeks in combination with bevacizumab 10 mg/kg every 2 weeks (combination arm) or bevacizumab monotherapy (control arm). The primary endpoint was overall survival (OS), and secondary endpoints were objective response rate (ORR) by Response Assessment in Neuro-Oncology (RANO) criteria and progression-free survival (PFS).
RESULTS
Enrolled were 256 patients at 57 sites. Median exposure to VB-111 was 4 months. The study did not meet its primary or secondary goals. Median OS was 6.8 versus 7.9 months in the combination versus control arm (hazard ratio, 1.20; 95% CI: 0.91-1.59; P = 0.19) and ORR was 27.3% versus 21.9% (P = 0.26). A higher rate of grades 3-5 adverse events was reported in the combination arm (67% vs 40%), mainly attributed to a higher rate of CNS and flu-like/fever events. Trends for improved survival with combination treatment were seen in the subgroup of patients with smaller tumors and in patients who had a posttreatment febrile reaction.
CONCLUSIONS
In this study, upfront concomitant administration of VB-111 and bevacizumab failed to improve outcomes in rGBM. Change of treatment regimen, with the lack of VB-111 monotherapy priming, may explain the differences from the favorable phase II results.

We evaluated left ventricular end-systolic volume (LVESv), left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) and SDI by 3DE before CRT implantation and at a 12-month follow-up in all the patients. We also obtained the New York Heart Association functional class, the 6-minute walk test, the quality of life questionnaire and the level of NT-proBNP.
RESULTS
The number of volumetric responders was similar in both groups (17 vs. 20, P = 0.786). There were also no significant differences in the reduction of LVESv (-41 ± 55 mL vs. - 61 ± 51 mL, P = 0.111), improvement in LVEF (+10.1 ± 10.6% vs. + 13.0 ± 9.9%, P = 0.213) or differences in clinical outcomes between both groups at the 12-month follow-up.

910,31268266,Impact of spinal needle design and approach to postdural puncture headache and spinal anesthesia failure in obstetrics.,"BACKGROUND
Concern has been raised that Sprotte needles predispose to spinal anes-thesia failure. Nevertheless, these needles are associated with a low incidence of postdural puncture headache. The impact of the paramedian approach to postdural puncture headache remains controversial. The objective of this prospective randomized study was to compare Sprotte, Quincke and Atraucan needles as well as the midline and the paramedian approach in terms of postdural puncture headache and spinal anesthesia failure in patients undergoing Caesarean section.
METHODS
655 patients were randomized to 5 groups. A midline approach was used in four groups. The spinal needles were the 25G Sprotte, 27G Sprotte, 26G Atraucan and 25G Quincke. In the fifth group a 25G Quincke needle was used by the paramedian approach.
RESULTS
The incidence of postdural puncture headache was 0% in both 25G and 27G Sprotte groups, 2.5% in the 26G Atraucan group, and 7.2% and 2.7% in the 25G Quincke midline and paramedian approach respectively. A significant difference in terms of postdural puncture headache was found between 25G Sprotte and 25G Quincke needles (P = 0.004), while the failure rate was similar between these two needles. A significant difference in spinal anesthesia failure rate was observed between midline and paramedian approaches (P = 0.041).
CONCLUSIONS
Sprotte but not Atraucan needle design correlates with lower incidence of postdural puncture headache compared to Quincke design. Sprotte needles are not associated with a higher spinal anesthesia failure compared to Quincke needles. The incidence of postdural puncture headache by the paramedian approach is not significantly reduced whereas the spinal anesthesia failure rate is increased in comparison to the midline approach.",2019,"A significant difference in spinal anesthesia failure rate was observed between midline and paramedian approaches (P = 0.041).

911,31268273,Relationship between the regurgitated and the aspirated volume of water. A manikin study.,"BACKGROUND
The relationship between gastric fluid volume, volume of fluid regurgitated, and aspirated fluid volume remains unclear. Using a life-like manikin suitable for a pulmonary aspiration model, we aimed to assess the relationship between regurgitated and aspirated clear fluid volumes, and to determine the minimal value of the volume of liquid regurgitated that may lead to pulmonary aspiration of fluid volume ≥ 0.8 mL kg-1 (around 60 mL) that is likely to cause lung injury.
METHODS
Several volumes of water ranging from 30 to 150 mL were injected in a randomized order, at a flow rate of 20 mL per second, into the esophagus of a manikin lying in the supine position on a non-tilted table, with the manikin head in the extension or in the sniffing position. Aspirated volumes were measured in the manikin bronchi, by an investigator blinded to the volume injected. Aspiration was defined as positive when the volume of collected water was ≥ 60 mL for at least one of the five injections of each volume of water.
RESULTS
The minimal volume of water injected into the esophagus for an aspirated volume ≥ 0.8 mL kg-1 was 85 mL in the sniffing position, and was 150 mL in the extension position.
CONCLUSIONS
These results suggest that the critical cut-off value of gastric fluid volume to be considered for the risk of significant pulmonary aspiration would be ≥ 85 mL (≥ 1 mL kg-1), in the sniffing position. These results should however be confirmed in further studies using other models.",2019,"The minimal volume of water injected into the esophagus for an aspirated volume ≥ 0.8 mL kg-1 was 85 mL in the sniffing position, and was 150 mL in the extension position.

912,31303184,Iron status and inherited haemoglobin disorders modify the effects of micronutrient powders on linear growth and morbidity among young Lao children in a double-blind randomised trial.,"Some studies found that providing micronutrient powder (MNP) causes adverse health outcomes, but modifying factors are unknown. We aimed to investigate whether Fe status and inherited Hb disorders (IHbD) modify the impact of MNP on growth and diarrhoea among young Lao children. In a double-blind controlled trial, 1704 children of age 6-23 months were randomised to daily MNP (with 6 mg Fe plus fourteen micronutrients) or placebo for about 36 weeks. IHbD, and baseline and final Hb, Fe status and anthropometrics were assessed. Caregivers provided weekly morbidity reports. At enrolment, 55·6 % were anaemic; only 39·3 % had no sign of clinically significant IHbD. MNP had no overall impact on growth and longitudinal diarrhoea prevalence. Baseline Hb modified the effect of MNP on length-for-age (LAZ) (P for interaction = 0·082). Among children who were initially non-anaemic, the final mean LAZ in the MNP group was slightly lower (-1·93 (95 % CI -1·88, -1·97)) v. placebo (-1·88 (95 % CI -1·83, -1·92)), and the opposite occurred among initially anaemic children (final mean LAZ -1·90 (95 % CI -1·86, -1·94) in MNP v. -1·92 (95 % CI -1·88, -1·96) in placebo). IHbD modified the effect on diarrhoea prevalence (P = 0·095). Among children with IHbD, the MNP group had higher diarrhoea prevalence (1·37 (95 % CI 1·17, 1·59) v. 1·21 (95 % CI 1·04, 1·41)), while it was lower among children without IHbD who received MNP (1·15 (95 % CI 0·95, 1·39) v. 1·37 (95 % CI 1·13, 1·64)).

913,31320290,"Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate intravaginal ring for HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis in sexually active women: a phase 1, single-blind, randomised, controlled trial.","BACKGROUND
An intravaginal ring that releases the tenofovir prodrug, tenofovir disoproxil fumarate, provided 100% protection in macaques against simian HIV and was safe in a 14-day clinical trial in sexually abstinent women. We aimed to assess the safety and pharmacokinetics of this intravaginal ring over 90 days in sexually active women.
METHODS
We did a phase 1, single-blind, randomised, placebo-controlled trial to assess safety, pharmacokinetics, and acceptability of a tenofovir disoproxil fumarate intravaginal ring used continuously with monthly ring changes for 3 months. Sexually active women who were HIV negative were randomly assigned (3:1) to a tenofovir disoproxil fumarate ring or placebo ring. Primary safety endpoint was the proportion of women who had grade 2 or higher genitourinary adverse events judged related to study product and any grade 2 or higher adverse event as defined by the Division of AIDS Table for Grading the Severity of Adult and Pediatric Adverse Events. We quantified tenofovir disoproxil fumarate and tenofovir concentrations in cervicovaginal fluid, tenofovir in plasma, and tenofovir diphosphate, the active metabolite, in cervical tissue and dried blood spots 1 month after each ring insertion. We compared changes over time in cervicovaginal fluid cytokine and chemokine concentrations and vaginal microbiota. The study was electively stopped early and is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, number NCT02762617.
FINDINGS
Between Feb 24 and July 20, 2017, 17 women were enrolled before study termination. 12 were assigned to receive the tenofovir disoproxil fumarate ring and five were assigned to receive the placebo ring. Two participants in the tenofovir disoproxil fumarate ring group completed 3 months of continuous ring use; eight were asked to discontinue ring use early because of ulcerations (grade 1) near the ring; in the remaining two women, rings were electively removed by study staff on day 20 and day 23. Ulcers were detected a mean of 32 days after ring use (range 23-56). Four of eight participants with ulcers were symptomatic with vaginal discharge; four had ulcers identified when examined; three had two ulcers; all ulcers resolved after ring removal. No participants in the placebo group developed ulcers. No grade 2 product-related adverse events were reported in either group and four non-product-related grade 2 adverse events were reported in the tenofovir disoproxil fumarate ring group. Cervicovaginal fluid tenofovir concentrations did not differ at day 14 (p=0·14) comparing the eight patients who did (median 1·0 × 10 5 ng/mL [IQR 9·1 × 10 4 -1·1 × 10 5 ]) with the four who did not (6·0 × 10 4 ng/mL [5·6 × 10 4 -1·1 × 10 5 ]) develop ulcers. No significant changes in vaginal microbiota were detected in either group. Concentrations of multiple inflammatory cytokines and chemokines were significantly higher at days 14 and 28 compared with baseline in the tenofovir disoproxil fumarate ring group but not the placebo group.
INTERPRETATION
Future studies are needed to establish whether the unanticipated finding of ulcerations is specific to this tenofovir disoproxil fumarate ring or generalisable to other sustained topical release formulations of tenofovir or its prodrugs.

The aim of this paper was to investigate if oral sensitivity to complex carbohydrate relates to ad libitum consumption of complex carbohydrate foods in a sample group of female adults. Participants' ((n 51 females): age 23·0 (sd 0·6) years (range 20·0-41·0 years); excluding restrained eaters) sensitivity towards maltodextrin (oral complex carbohydrate) and glucose (sweet taste) was assessed by measuring detection threshold (DT) and suprathreshold intensity perception (ST). A crossover design was used to assess consumption of two different iso-energetic preload milkshakes and ad libitum milkshakes - (1) glucose-based milkshake, (2) maltodextrin-based milkshake. Ad libitum intake (primary outcome) and eating rate, liking, hunger, fullness and prospective consumption ratings were measured. Participants who were more sensitive towards complex carbohydrate (maltodextrin DT) consumed significantly more maltodextrin-based milkshake in comparison with less-sensitive participants (P = 0·01) and this was independent of liking. Participants who had higher liking for glucose-based milkshake consumed significantly more glucose-based milkshake in comparison with participants with lower hedonic ratings (P = 0·049).

Treating the condition, protein supplementation (PrS) and resistance training (RT) may act synergistically. Therefore, this block-randomised, double-blind, multicentre intervention study, recruiting geriatric patients > 70 years from three medical departments, investigated the effect of PrS combined with RT during hospitalisation and 12 weeks after discharge. Participants were randomly allocated (1:1) to receive PrS (totally 27·5 g whey protein/d, about 2000 kJ/d) or isoenergetic placebo-products (< 1·5 g protein/d) divided into two servings per d to supplement the habitual diet. Both groups were engaged in a standardised, progressive low-intensity RT programme for the lower extremities (hospital: supervised daily/after discharge: self-training 4×/week). From April 2016 to September 2017, 2351 patients were screened, 462 were eligible, and 165 included. Fourteen were excluded and ten dropped out, leaving 141 participants in the intention-to-treat analysis. The average total protein intake during hospitalisation/after discharge was 1·0 (interquartile range (IQR) 0·8, 1·3)/1·1 (IQR 0·9, 1·3) g/kg per d (protein-group) and 0·6 (IQR 0·5, 0·8)/0·9 (IQR 0·6, 1·0) g/kg per d (placebo group). Both groups improved significantly for the primary and secondary endpoints of muscle mass/strength, functional measurements and quality of life, but no additional effect of PrS was seen for the primary endpoint (30-s chair stand test, repetitions, median changes from baseline: (standard test: 0 (IQR 0, 5) (protein group) v. 2 (IQR 0, 6) (placebo group) and modified test: 2 (IQR 0, 5) (protein group) v. 2 (IQR -1, 5) (placebo group)) or any secondary endpoints (Mann-Whitney U tests, P > 0·05).

916,32406746,[High intensity interval training increases the utilization of fatty acids in subjects with overweight or obesity. A randomized study].,"INTRODUCTION
the effect of high intensity interval training (HIIT) on fat utilization during exercise needs to be studied in depth.
OBJECTIVE
to determine the effect of HIIT training program in subjects with overweight or obesity on the use of fat during exercise, body composition and cardiovascular variables. The second objective was to compare the variables according to the duration of the program (i.e., 12, 16 and 20 weeks).
MATERIAL AND METHODS
30 subjects were studied (age 44.8 ± 11.6 years). Three groups were formed at random, the G1 (12 weeks, n = 12, 48.08 ± 8.20 years), G2 (16 weeks, n = 10, 42.10 ± 11.60 years) and G3 (20 weeks, n = 8, 43.38 ± 15.76 years). All groups performed HIIT 3 times per week.
RESULTS
the three groups showed a significant decrease in body fat percentage (p < 0.05), without differences between groups. Similarly, cardiovascular variables did not report differences between groups (p-interaction > 0.05) after the intervention; however, the groups reported a significant decrease systolic blood pressure (p < 0, 05). In the pre vs. post analysis by groups, the three groups showed improvements in VO2max without differences between groups (p-interaction > 0.05). Finally, the three groups increased the fats utilization during exercise (p < 0.05).
CONCLUSION
the program increased fat utilization during exercise, decreased body fat % and improved cardiovascular parameters, however after 12 training weeks it is advisable to apply variations to training to maximize results.",2020,"the three groups showed a significant decrease in body fat percentage (p < 0.05), without differences between groups.","['subjects with overweight or obesity on the use of fat during exercise, body composition and cardiovascular variables', 'subjects with overweight or obesity', '30 subjects were studied (age 44.8 ± 11.6 years']","['High intensity interval training', 'HIIT training program', 'high intensity interval training (HIIT']","['fats utilization', 'body fat percentage', 'fat utilization during exercise, decreased body fat % and improved cardiovascular parameters', 'VO2max', 'systolic blood pressure', 'utilization of fatty acids', 'cardiovascular variables']","[{'cui': 'C0497406', 'cui_str': 'Overweight'}, {'cui': 'C0028754', 'cui_str': 'Obesity'}, {'cui': 'C1524063', 'cui_str': 'Use of'}, {'cui': 'C0015677', 'cui_str': 'Fat'}, {'cui': 'C0587107', 'cui_str': 'During exercise'}, {'cui': 'C0005885', 'cui_str': 'Body composition'}, {'cui': 'C0007226', 'cui_str': 'Structure of cardiovascular system'}, {'cui': 'C0439828', 'cui_str': 'Variable'}, {'cui': 'C0008972', 'cui_str': 'Clinical Study'}, {'cui': 'C0001779', 'cui_str': 'Age'}, {'cui': 'C4708782', 'cui_str': '11.6'}, {'cui': 'C0439234', 'cui_str': 'year'}]","[{'cui': 'C4277545', 'cui_str': 'High-intensity interval training'}, {'cui': 'C0040607', 'cui_str': 'Training Programs'}]","[{'cui': 'C0015677', 'cui_str': 'Fat'}, {'cui': 'C0042153', 'cui_str': 'utilization'}, {'cui': 'C0001527', 'cui_str': 'Adipose tissue'}, {'cui': 'C0439165', 'cui_str': 'Percent'}, {'cui': 'C0587107', 'cui_str': 'During exercise'}, {'cui': 'C0205216', 'cui_str': 'Decreased'}, {'cui': 'C0007226', 'cui_str': 'Structure of cardiovascular system'}, {'cui': 'C0449381', 'cui_str': 'Observation parameter'}, {'cui': 'C0871470', 'cui_str': 'Systolic blood pressure'}, {'cui': 'C0015684', 'cui_str': 'Fatty acid'}, {'cui': 'C0439828', 'cui_str': 'Variable'}]",30.0,0.0214989,"the three groups showed a significant decrease in body fat percentage (p < 0.05), without differences between groups.","[{'ForeName': 'Roberto', 'Initials': 'R', 'LastName': 'Moris', 'Affiliation': 'Departamento de Educación Física, Deportes y Recreación.

919,31327625,Ocular surface response and subjective symptoms associated to lens care solutions in Palestine.,"PURPOSE
To compare the biocompatibility and subjective symptoms of four multipurpose solutions marketed in Palestine with hydrogel contact lenses.
METHODS
50 habitual soft contact lens wearers were recruited in this interventional crossover study. Subjects were asked to attend the optometry clinic five times. A new pair of hydrogel lenses (Bioxifilcon-B) were fitted each time. This pair was soaked randomly overnight in one of the following four-multipurpose solutions (NEOPLUS ® , AvizorUnicaSensitive ® , ReNuMultiPlus ® and COMPLETERevitaLens ® ) which contain different disinfecting agents (PHMB, Phx, PAPB, and PQ-1+Alexidine, respectively), or non-preserved saline. At each visit, corneal staining, ocular redness and subjective symptoms were assessed.
RESULTS
The percentage of corneal staining increased significantly (P≤0.050) after soaking the lenses with PHMB (86%), PAPB (64%) and Phx (32%) based-solutions. However, a non-significant increase was noticed after the use of PQ-1+Alexidine based solution (30%, P=0.083). Ocular redness evaluation showed a significant increase (P≤0.050) in limbal hyperemia after the use of all solutions, while bulbar redness was significantly increased after the use of biguanide-based solutions (P≤0.050). The subjective assessment analysis showed a non-significant change in comfort, dryness, photophobia and scratchiness (P≥0.050) at 2-h intervention using all solutions, except for the PHMB based solution which showed a significant change in subjective symptoms (P≤0.050).
CONCLUSION
The combination of Bioxifilcon-B hydrogel contact lenses and solution containing PHMB, PAPB and Phx-disinfectants induced a significant increase in corneal staining after 2h of CL-wear with a higher severity when the PHMB-based solution was used, while the PQ-1+Alexidine-based solution did not. Only the PHMB-based solution triggered a significant change in subjective symptoms which might which suggests that it might be related to the severity of staining rather than the induction of staining.",2019,"The percentage of corneal staining increased significantly (P≤0.050) after soaking the lenses with PHMB (86%), PAPB (64%) and Phx (32%) based-solutions.","['Palestine', '50 habitual soft contact lens wearers']","['hydrogel lenses (Bioxifilcon-B', 'Bioxifilcon-B hydrogel contact lenses and solution containing PHMB, PAPB and Phx-disinfectants', 'PQ-1+Alexidine']","['subjective symptoms', 'Ocular surface response and subjective symptoms', 'corneal staining', 'percentage of corneal staining', 'bulbar redness', 'comfort, dryness, photophobia and scratchiness', 'limbal hyperemia', 'corneal staining, ocular redness and subjective symptoms', 'Ocular redness evaluation', 'biocompatibility and subjective symptoms']","[{'cui': 'C0205353', 'cui_str': 'Habitual (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0009838', 'cui_str': 'Soft Contact Lenses'}]","[{'cui': 'C0063083', 'cui_str': 'Hydrogel, Polyethylene Glycol Dimethacrylate'}, {'cui': 'C0009836', 'cui_str': 'Contact Lenses'}, {'cui': 'C0037633', 'cui_str': 'Solutions'}, {'cui': 'C0332256', 'cui_str': 'Containing (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0084110', 'cui_str': 'polyaminopropyl biguanide'}, {'cui': 'C0012682', 'cui_str': 'Disinfectants'}]","[{'cui': 'C0439655', 'cui_str': 'Subjective observation'}, {'cui': 'C0683368', 'cui_str': 'symptoms'}, {'cui': 'C4521296', 'cui_str': 'Ocular (intended site)'}, {'cui': 'C0205148', 'cui_str': 'Surface (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0423232', 'cui_str': 'Corneal epithelial staining pattern (observable entity)'}, {'cui': 'C0332575', 'cui_str': 'Red color (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C0085636', 'cui_str': 'Light Sensitivity'}, {'cui': 'C0423193', 'cui_str': 'Limbal injection (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C1261322', 'cui_str': 'Clinical evaluation'}]",,0.0518076,"The percentage of corneal staining increased significantly (P≤0.050) after soaking the lenses with PHMB (86%), PAPB (64%) and Phx (32%) based-solutions.","[{'ForeName': 'Ithar M', 'Initials': 'IM', 'LastName': 'Beshtawi', 'Affiliation': 'Optometry Department, Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences, An-Najah National University, Nablus, West Bank, Palestine.

920,31337877,Randomised phase 3 study of adjuvant chemotherapy with or without nadroparin in patients with completely resected non-small-cell lung cancer: the NVALT-8 study.,"BACKGROUND
Retrospective studies suggest that low molecular weight heparin may delay the development of metastasis in patients with resected NSCLC.
METHODS
Multicentre phase 3 study with patients with completely resected NSCLC who were randomised after surgery to receive chemotherapy with or without nadroparin. The main exclusion criteria were R1/2 and wedge/segmental resection. FDG-PET was required. The primary endpoint was recurrence-free survival (RFS).
RESULTS
Among 235 registered patients, 202 were randomised (nadroparin: n = 100; control n = 102). Slow accrual enabled a decrease in the number of patients needed from 600 to 202, providing 80% power to compare RFS with 94 events (α = 0.05; 2-sided). There were no differences in bleeding events between the two groups. The median RFS was 65.2 months (95% CI, 36-NA) in the nadroparin arm and 37.7 months (95% CI, 22.7-NA) in the control arm (HR 0.77 (95% CI, 0.53-1.13, P = 0.19). FDG-PET SUVmax ≥10 predicted a greater likelihood of recurrence in the first year (HR 0.48, 95% CI 0.22-0.9, P = 0.05).
CONCLUSIONS
Adjuvant nadroparin did not improve RFS in patients with resected NSCLC. In this study, a high SUVmax predicted a greater likelihood of recurrence in the first year.

921,31255521,Impact of an immunization platform in community pharmacies.,"OBJECTIVES
To assess the impact of incorporating a bidirectional immunization forecasting and reporting platform in the workflow of a regional community pharmacy chain with the use of time and motion methodologies.
SETTING
Six Bartell Drugs Pharmacies in Seattle, Washington.
PRACTICE DESCRIPTION
Bartell Drugs is a 63-store family-owned regional community pharmacy chain that offers all routine vaccinations and travel vaccinations.
PRACTICE INNOVATION
Six pharmacies were selected based on immunization performance the previous year. These pharmacies were divided into 3 immunization performance groups. Within each performance group, one store had implemented the bidirectional immunization forecasting and reporting platform (intervention) and the other had not (control).
EVALUATION
Observations were conducted for 4 to 8 hours at each store to determine the time required for each immunization encounter. Each encounter was divided into 7 time subcategories, which were assigned to the pharmacist, technician, or patient. Time and motion methodologies were used to estimate total pharmacist and technician time and the number of immunizations administered per patient encounter. All data were analyzed with the use of descriptive statistics.
RESULTS
Ten vaccinations were administered during 5 patient encounters in the intervention group compared with 8 vaccinations during 8 patient encounters in the control group. The average time spent on each patient encounter in the intervention group was 24.8 minutes, compared with 18.5 minutes in the control group. In the intervention group, pharmacists spent an average of 9.3 minutes per patient encounter compared with 7.6 minutes in the control group. In the intervention group, technicians spent an average of 10.8 minutes per encounter compared with 9.1 minutes in the control group.
CONCLUSION
Incorporation of a bidirectional immunization platform into the workflow of a community pharmacy increased staff time but also resulted in a greater number of immunizations per patient, suggesting enhanced immunization care in the intervention pharmacies.",2019,"RESULTS

922,32207984,Efficacy and Safety of Wendan Decoction for Acute Brain Injury: A Randomized Controlled Study.,"Objectives: Despite the remarkable advances in critical care management of acute brain injury for the past 20 years, the prognoses remain poor. However, numerous reports indicate the efficacy of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) therapy in stroke rehabilitation. This study aimed to determine the efficacy and safety of integrated TCM (Wendan decoction [WDD]) in patients with acute brain injury as a combination therapy in the early stages. Design: Prospective randomized controlled trial. Setting: Single-center study. Subjects: Sixty patients diagnosed with acute brain injury were randomly assigned to intervention and control groups, equally, and 41 patients completed the study. Interventions: All patients were treated by conventional neurologic intensive care. The 23 patients in the intervention group were administered with an integrated WDD in the early stages three times daily; combination treatment was initiated within 14 days and lasted >1 month. Outcome measures: Duration of ventilator use, intensive care unit stays, Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) scores, motor response, the best muscle power, disability rating scale (DRS) scores, modified Rankin scale (mRS) scores, and the mortality rate for the first month. The other outcome measures were GCS scores, motor response, the best muscle power, DRS, mRS, and Barthel index (BI) scores 6 months later. Results: There was no mortality in the intervention group, but the rate was 39% in the control group for first month. Comparisons between groups showed significant differences ( p < 0.05) in GCS, DRS, mRS, and BI scores, indicating improvements in the intervention group after 6 months. Conclusions: In the early stages of acute brain injury, combination treatment with WDD was found to be safe.

923,31314661,A Randomized Clinical Trial Comparing the Impact of a Web-Based Multimedia Intervention Versus an Educational Pamphlet on Patient Outcomes in Breast Cancer Survivors with Chronic Secondary Lymphedema.,"Objective: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of a Web-based Multimedia Intervention (WBMI) for breast cancer-related lymphedema (BCRL) patients on symptom burden, function, psychological well-being, costs, and arm volume. Methods: Women with BCRL were randomized to intervention ( n = 80) or control ( n = 80) groups. The WBMI offered 12 modules, each of which took about 30 minutes to complete. The Pamphlet took about 2 hours to read. Data on symptom burden, psychological well-being, function, and costs were collected preintervention; and 1, 3, 6, and 12 months postintervention. A subgroup of 45 regional patients had arm extracellular fluid measured by bioimpedance at baseline and at 3, 6, and 12 months postintervention. Intervention perceived value was also captured. Results: A statistically significant difference ( p = 0.011) was observed for rates of intervention completion, WBMI (58%), and Pamphlet (77%). With the exception of the number of biobehavioral symptoms (mood), no statistically significant differences between groups in symptom reduction were apparent between baseline and 1 or 12 months (effect sizes = 0.05-0.28, p > 0.05) based on the Lymphedema Symptom Intensity and Distress Scale-Arm (LSIDS-A). No statistically significant differences between the groups were observed for changes in other variables.

924,31307948,"Efficacy and safety of dolutegravir-rilpivirine for maintenance of virological suppression in adults with HIV-1: 100-week data from the randomised, open-label, phase 3 SWORD-1 and SWORD-2 studies.","BACKGROUND
Primary analyses of the SWORD-1 and SWORD-2 trials at 48 weeks showed that switching to a two-drug regimen of dolutegravir plus rilpivirine was non-inferior to continuing a standard three-drug or four-drug antiretroviral regimen for maintenance of virological suppression in people with HIV-1. Here, we present efficacy and safety data from the 100-week analysis of the trials.
METHODS
SWORD-1 and SWORD-2 are identically designed, randomised, open-label phase 3 studies at 65 centres in 13 countries and 60 centres in 11 countries, respectively. Adults aged 18 years or older who were on a standard three-drug or four-drug antiretroviral therapy (ART) and had had fewer than 50 HIV-1 RNA copies per mL of plasma for at least 6 months were randomly assigned (1:1) to 50 mg dolutegravir plus 25 mg rilpivirine orally once daily (early-switch group) or to continue their standard regimen for 52 weeks before switching to the dolutegravir plus rilpivirine combination (ie, the late-switch group). In this analysis of week 100 data, the efficacy endpoint of interest was the proportion of participants with fewer than 50 copies of HIV-1 RNA per mL of plasma (per the US Food and Drug Administration snapshot algorithm). This outcome was assessed in all randomly assigned participants who received at least one dose of the study drug. Data were analysed after the last participant completed week 100 (Sept 15, 2017) and verified through the data cutoff (Nov 21, 2017). SWORD-1 and SWORD-2 are registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, numbers NCT02429791 and NCT02422797, respectively.
FINDINGS
513 participants were randomly assigned to dolutegravir plus rilpivirine (ie, the early-switch group) and 511 to continue their standard ART regimen, 477 of whom then switched to dolutegravir plus rilpivirine at week 52 (ie, the late-switch group). At week 100, 456 (89% [95% CI 86-92]) of 513 participants in the early-switch group and 444 (93% [91-95]) of 477 in the late-switch group had fewer than 50 HIV-1 RNA copies per mL. Drug-related adverse events occurred in 103 (20%) participants in the early-switch group and 58 (12%) in the late-switch group. The most common drug-related adverse events were headache (11 participants in the early-switch group [2%] vs eight [2%] in the late-switch group) and nausea (eight [2%] vs five [1%]).
INTERPRETATION
The combination of dolutegravir plus rilpivirine sustained virological suppression of HIV-1, was associated with a low frequency of virological failure, and had a favourable safety profile, which support its use as a nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor-sparing and protease inhibitor-sparing alternative to three-drug regimens that reduces overall exposure to ART.

926,31034594,Older Adults with Cancer: A Randomized Controlled Trial of Occupational and Physical Therapy.,"OBJECTIVES
The impact of occupational therapy (OT) and physical therapy (PT) on functional outcomes in older adults with cancer is unknown.
DESIGN
Two-arm single-institution randomized controlled trial of outpatient OT/PT.
SETTING
Comprehensive cancer center with two off-site OT/PT clinics.
PARTICIPANTS
We recruited adults 65 years and older with a recent diagnosis or recurrence of cancer within 5 years, with at least one functional limitation as identified by a geriatric assessment. Participants were randomized to OT/PT or usual care.
INTERVENTION
Rehabilitation consisted of individualized OT and PT that addressed functional activities and strength/endurance needs.
MEASUREMENTS
Primary outcome was functional status as measured by the Nottingham Extended Activities of Daily Living scale. Secondary outcomes were Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System-Global Mental Health (GMH) and Global Physical Health (GPH), ability to participate in Social Roles (SR), physical function, and activity expectations and self-efficacy (Possibilities for Activity Scale [PActS]).
RESULTS
Among those recruited (N = 63), only 45 patients (71%) were evaluable due to loss of follow-up and/or nonreceipt of intervention. The median age was 74 years; 53% were female, and 91% were white. Overall, 30% patients had hematologic malignancies, 30% breast cancer, and 16% colorectal cancers. A total of 65% were in active treatment; 49% had stage 3 or 4 disease. At follow-up, both OT/PT (P = .02) and usual care (P = .03) groups experienced a decline in functional status. PActS scores between groups (P = .04) was significantly improved in the intervention group. GMH and SR met criteria for minimally important clinical difference favoring the intervention, but not statistical significance. Several barriers were noted in the implementation of the intervention program: recruitment, concerns about cost, distance, scheduling, and limited treatment provided.
CONCLUSION
OT/PT may positively influence activity expectations and self-efficacy. Future research needs to address significant barriers to implementation to increase use of OT/PT services and access to quality care.

927,32208397,Safety and Efficacy of Prasugrel in Elderly/Low Body Weight Japanese Patients with Ischemic Stroke: Randomized PRASTRO-II.,"INTRODUCTION
The safety of prasugrel in elderly and/or low body weight Japanese patients with ischemic stroke who have a relatively high bleeding risk with antiplatelet therapy remains unknown.
OBJECTIVE
We aimed to investigate the safety and efficacy of long-term prasugrel monotherapy for stroke prevention compared with clopidogrel in elderly and/or low body weight Japanese patients with non-cardioembolic ischemic stroke.
METHODS
In this randomized, double-blind, comparative, phase III study, elderly (age ≥75 years) and/or low body weight (≤50 kg) Japanese patients with a previous history of non-cardioembolic ischemic stroke were assigned to a prasugrel 3.75 mg (PRA3.75) group, a prasugrel 2.5 mg (PRA2.5) group, or a clopidogrel 50 mg (CLO50) group and followed up for 48 weeks. The primary safety endpoint was the combined incidence of primary safety events, defined as life-threatening, major, and other clinically relevant bleeding. The efficacy endpoint was a composite of ischemic stroke, myocardial infarction, and death from other vascular causes.
RESULTS
A total of 654 patients (age 76.4 ± 7.3 years, body weight 55.6 ± 9.3 kg, women 43.9%) from 74 medical institutions within Japan were enrolled. The combined incidence (95% CI) of primary safety events was 4.2% (1.9-7.8%), 1.9% (0.5-4.7%), and 3.6% (1.6-6.9%) in the PRA3.75 group (n = 216), PRA2.5 group (n = 215), and CLO50 group (n = 223), respectively (hazard ratios [HR] PRA3.75/CLO50, 1.13 [0.44-2.93]; PRA2.5/CLO50, 0.51 [0.15-1.69]). The incidences of bleeding leading to treatment discontinuation (95% CI) were 2.3% (0.8-5.3%), 0.9% (0.1-3.3%), and 2.2% (0.7-5.2%) in the PRA3.75, PRA2.5, and CLO50 groups, respectively (HRs PRA3.75/CLO50, 1.01 [0.29-3.48]; PRA2.5/CLO50, 0.41 [0.08-2.12]). There was no significant difference in all bleeding events between groups.

928,31133624,Lifestyle Interventions to Promote Healthy Nutrition and Physical Activity in Middle-Age (40-60 Years) Adults: A Randomized Controlled Trial in the North of Iran.,"BACKGROUND
This study was conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of short-term structured interventions on healthy lifestyle behaviors, dietary intake, anthropometric measures, blood pressure, fasting blood glucose, and serum lipid profile of middle-aged adults.
STUDY DESIGN
Randomized controlled trial study.
METHODS
Overall, 300 individuals out of apparently healthy (non-patient) adults aged 40-60 yr living in Amirkola, Babol the north of Iran were enrolled in 2016-2017. The Persian translation of the Health Promoting Lifestyle Profile II (HPLP-II) and two days 24-h food recall questionnaires were used for data collection. Eligible participants were allocated randomly in three groups (high-intensive, low-intensive and the control). The follow-up examination has been conducted after 16 wk of intervention.
RESULTS
The three study groups had no significant difference in age (P=0.888), sex (P=0.395), BMI (P=0.969), healthy lifestyle score (P=0.675) and total daily energy intake (P=0.612). After intervention, the mean scores of all the six subdomains of HPLP-II questionnaire had significant improvement (P<0.001). Mean weight loss was 1.5, 1.0 and 0.3 kg, in high-intensive, low-intensive and control groups, respectively. BMI although reduced, was still in the overweight range in two sexes. Mean of neck, arm, waist and buttock size, diastolic blood pressure, serum triglyceride, total cholesterol, and HDL levels have been changed to a better condition in comparison with the baseline values (P<0.001). Dietary intake had good changes in total daily energy (P<0.001), daily intake of carbohydrate, protein, and fat (P<0.001), and proportion of energy from carbohydrate (P=0.007) and fat (P=0.022) after the intervention.

929,32027446,Once-Daily Oxycodone Prolonged-Release Tablets Are Resistant to Alcohol-Induced Dose Dumping: Results From a Randomized Trial in Healthy Volunteers.,"The objective of this study was to determine the effect of concomitant alcohol intake on the bioavailability of oxycodone from an oxycodone once-daily (OOD) formulation and an oxycodone twice-daily (OTD) formulation. A phase I, open-label, randomized, crossover alcohol interaction study in 20 healthy volunteers under fasting conditions was conducted. Participants received five treatments, OOD with 240 mL of 0%, 20%, or 40% alcohol; and OTD with 240 mL of 0% or 40% alcohol. Pharmacokinetic parameters did not differ between participants taking OOD with water or with 240 mL of 20% alcohol. There was a slight increase in overall oxycodone absorption from OOD with 40% alcohol but no increase in peak absorption. Oxycodone absorption from OTD showed peak and overall increases with 40% alcohol but maintained a prolonged-release profile.

930,31311018,A Clinical Significance of Intermittent Infusion Hemodiafiltration Using Backfiltration of Ultrapure Dialysis Fluid Compared to Hemodialysis: A Multicenter Randomized Controlled Crossover Trial.,"BACKGROUND
Intermittent infusion hemodiafiltration -(I-HDF) using repeated infusion of ultrapure dialysis fluid through a dialysis membrane or sterile nonpyrogenic substitution fluid was developed to prevent a rapid decrease in blood pressure by increasing the patient's circulating blood volume, to enhance the plasma refilling rate by improving peripheral circulation, and to enhance solute transfer from the extravascular space to the intravascular space by enhancing the plasma refilling rate. Furthermore, the effect of fouling caused by attachment of proteins to the membrane as a result of ultrafiltration can be reduced by backflushing of the membrane with the purified dialysate in I-HDF. Although there have been several clinical trials of I-HDF, there have been no comparisons of the clinical significance of and indications for -I-HDF with those of conventional hemodialysis (HD).
OBJECTIVE
The aim of this multicenter randomized controlled crossover trial was to compare the clinical significance of -I-HDF with that of HD in Japan.
METHOD
Patients were randomized to receive HD, I-HDF, and HD (group A) or I-HDF, HD, and I-HDF (group B) in that order for 14 weeks each. The sample size of 70 was determined based on the operability and patient availability. Treatment outcomes were evaluated 5 and 14 weeks after the start of each treatment period. The patients received 4-h treatment sessions with no changes in session duration or anticoagulant therapy during the study. I-HDF was performed using a GC-110N dialysis machine. Two hundred milliliters of ultrapure dialysis fluid were infused at a rate of 150 mL/min by backfiltration every 30 min during treatment. The first and last infusions were performed 30 min after the start and 30 min before the end of treatment, respectively. The total estimated infusion volume per session was 1.4 L (i.e., 200 mL × 7 infusions). I-HDF is a type of online HDF with a small fluid replacement volume. An ABH-P polysulfone membrane hemodiafilter was used for -I-HDF and a class 1 or 2 hemodialyzer with a polysulfone membrane not coated with vitamin E and approved by the Japanese reimbursement system was used for HD. The primary outcomes were the Short Form-36 version 2 summary scores for quality of life and the visual analog scale scores for clinical symptoms. Secondary outcomes were vital signs, number of interventions, and pre-treatment blood test results. These variables were evaluated 1 week before at the start of the study, and at 5 and 14 weeks after the start of each treatment period. The removal characteristics of the various solutes were evaluated when possible on the first day of each treatment period. All patients provided written informed consent to participate.
RESULTS
Thirty-two patients in group A and 32 patients in group B completed the trial. There were no differences in the primary or secondary outcomes between I-HDF and HD. Serum α1-microglobulin (MG) levels at 14 weeks were significantly lower for I-HDF than for HD. During treatment, the removal rates for urea and creatinine, which are low molecular weight substances, were significantly lower during I-HDF than during HD. In contrast, the β2-MG and α1-MG removal rates were significantly higher during I-HDF than during HD. Furthermore, there was significantly less albumin leak during I-HDF than during HD. The solute removal results reflect the difference in pore size between the hemodiafilter used for I-HDF and the hemodialyzer used for HD and the difference in convective transport attributable to filtration between the 2 methods.
CONCLUSIONS
These findings show that the removal rates of low molecular weight substances are significantly lower and those of medium to high molecular weight substances are significantly higher with I-HDF than with HD. They also indicate that there is significantly less albumin leak during I-HDF than during HD, meaning that I-HDF may be a particularly suitable dialysis modality for patients with malnutrition and the elderly in Japan.",2019,Serum α1-microglobulin (MG) levels at 14 weeks were significantly lower for I-HDF than for HD.,"['Japan', 'Hemodialysis', 'Patients', 'patients with malnutrition and the elderly in Japan']","['GC-110N dialysis machine', 'HD, I-HDF, and HD (group A) or I-HDF, HD, and I-HDF', '4-h treatment sessions with no changes in session duration or anticoagulant therapy', 'ABH-P polysulfone membrane hemodiafilter']","['Short Form-36 version 2 summary scores for quality of life and the visual analog scale scores for clinical symptoms', 'albumin leak', 'vital signs, number of interventions, and pre-treatment blood test results', 'Serum α1-microglobulin (MG) levels', 'removal rates for urea and creatinine', 'blood pressure', 'removal rates of low molecular weight substances', 'β2-MG and α1-MG removal rates']","[{'cui': 'C0022341', 'cui_str': 'Japan'}, {'cui': 'C0019004', 'cui_str': 'Hemodialysis'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C0162429', 'cui_str': 'Malnutrition'}, {'cui': 'C0001792', 'cui_str': 'Elderly'}]","[{'cui': 'C4551529', 'cui_str': 'Renal Dialysis'}, {'cui': 'C0336779', 'cui_str': 'Machine, device (physical object)'}, {'cui': 'C0441835', 'cui_str': 'Group A (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0087111', 'cui_str': 'Therapy'}, {'cui': 'C0442739', 'cui_str': 'Id status quo'}, {'cui': 'C2926735', 'cui_str': 'Duration'}, {'cui': 'C0150457', 'cui_str': 'Anticoagulant therapy (procedure)'}, {'cui': 'C0137909', 'cui_str': 'polysulfone'}, {'cui': 'C0025255', 'cui_str': 'Membranes'}]","[{'cui': 'C1806781', 'cui_str': 'Short (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0376315', 'cui_str': 'Form'}, {'cui': 'C2607870', 'cui_str': 'Version (morphologic abnormality)'}, {'cui': 'C0449820', 'cui_str': 'Scores (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0034380'}, {'cui': 'C2960751', 'cui_str': 'Visual analog scale score'}, {'cui': 'C0205210', 'cui_str': 'Clinical (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0683368', 'cui_str': 'symptoms'}, {'cui': 'C3711292', 'cui_str': '68Ga-albumin'}, {'cui': 'C0332234', 'cui_str': 'Leaking (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0518766'}, {'cui': 'C0237753', 'cui_str': 'Number (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0740175', 'cui_str': 'Before values (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0087111', 'cui_str': 'Therapy'}, {'cui': 'C0018941', 'cui_str': 'Blood Tests'}, {'cui': 'C1274040', 'cui_str': 'Result'}, {'cui': 'C0229671', 'cui_str': 'Serum'}, {'cui': 'C0456079', 'cui_str': 'Level (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0015252', 'cui_str': 'Removal - action (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0070525', 'cui_str': 'phenacemide'}, {'cui': 'C0010294', 'cui_str': 'Creatinine'}, {'cui': 'C0005823', 'cui_str': 'Blood Pressure'}, {'cui': 'C0205251', 'cui_str': 'Low (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0026385', 'cui_str': 'Molecular Weight'}, {'cui': 'C0439861', 'cui_str': 'Substance (substance)'}]",200.0,0.0368732,Serum α1-microglobulin (MG) levels at 14 weeks were significantly lower for I-HDF than for HD.,"[{'ForeName': 'Michio', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Mineshima', 'Affiliation': ""Department of Clinical Engineering, Tokyo Women's Medical University, Tokyo, Japan, mmine@twmu.ac.jp.""}, {'ForeName': 'Susumu', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Takahashi', 'Affiliation': 'International Kidney Evaluation Association Japan, Tokyo, Japan.'}, {'ForeName': 'Tadashi', 'Initials': 'T', 'LastName': 'Tomo', 'Affiliation': 'Clinical Engineering Research Center, Oita University, Oita, Japan.'}, {'ForeName': 'Hideki', 'Initials': 'H', 'LastName': 'Kawanishi', 'Affiliation': 'Tsuchiya General Hospital, Hiroshima, Japan.'}, {'ForeName': 'Hiroshi', 'Initials': 'H', 'LastName': 'Kawaguchi', 'Affiliation': 'Joban Hospital, Fukushima, Japan.'}, {'ForeName': 'Jun', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Minakuchi', 'Affiliation': 'Kawashima Hospital, Tokushima, Japan.'}, {'ForeName': 'Takeshi', 'Initials': 'T', 'LastName': 'Nakanishi', 'Affiliation': 'Division of Kidney and Dialysis, Hyogo College of Medicine, Nishinomiya, Japan.'}, {'ForeName': 'Takashi', 'Initials': 'T', 'LastName': 'Sato', 'Affiliation': 'Meiko Kyoritsu Clinic, Nagoya, Japan.'}, {'ForeName': 'Kosaku', 'Initials': 'K', 'LastName': 'Nitta', 'Affiliation': ""Department of Clinical Engineering, Tokyo Women's Medical University, Tokyo, Japan.""}, {'ForeName': 'Ken', 'Initials': 'K', 'LastName': 'Tsuchiya', 'Affiliation': ""Department of Clinical Engineering, Tokyo Women's Medical University, Tokyo, Japan.""}, {'ForeName': 'Ikuto', 'Initials': 'I', 'LastName': 'Masakane', 'Affiliation': 'Yabuki Hospital, Yamagata, Japan.'}, {'ForeName': 'Noritomo', 'Initials': 'N', 'LastName': 'Itami', 'Affiliation': 'Itami Kidney Clinic, Noboribetsu, Japan.'}]",Blood purification,['10.1159/000501511']

Participants (N = 1,488) were randomly assigned to feedback or assessment-only control conditions. Results indicated that the mailed feedback intervention had a preventive effect on drinking rates overall, with participants in the feedback condition consuming less alcohol at follow-up in comparison with controls. In addition, abstainers in the feedback condition were twice as likely to remain abstinent from alcohol at follow-up in comparison with control participants (odds ratio = 2.02), and feedback participants were significantly more likely to refrain from heavy episodic drinking (odds ratio = 1.43). Neither gender nor severity of baseline drinking moderated the efficacy of the intervention in these analyses, but more conservative analyses utilizing last-observation carryforward suggested women and abstainers benefited more from this prevention approach. Protective behaviors mediated intervention efficacy, with participants who received the intervention being more likely to use strategies such as setting limits and alternating alcohol with nonalcoholic beverages.

932,31299067,An apparent paradox: resistance mutations in HIV-1 DNA predict improved virological responses to antiretroviral therapy.,"BACKGROUND
In sub-Saharan Africa, detecting resistance-associated mutations (RAMs) at failure of first-line ART with two NRTIs plus an NNRTI predicts improved virological responses to second-line therapy with two NRTIs plus a ritonavir-boosted PI (PI/r). This indicates residual NRTI activity in the presence of RAMs, although additional factors may contribute to the effect.
OBJECTIVES
The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of pre-existing RAMs on the outcomes of maintenance monotherapy with ritonavir-boosted darunavir within a randomized trial in Cameroon.
METHODS
RAMs were detected in HIV-1 DNA using PBMCs collected at initiation of darunavir/ritonavir monotherapy. Adherence was assessed by pill count and visual analogue scale (VAS). Predictors of virological failure (confirmed or last available viral load >400 copies/mL) were explored by logistic regression analysis. Trial name = MANET (NCT02155101).
RESULTS
After NNRTI-based therapy, participants (n = 81) had received PI/r-based therapy for a median of 3.2 years and had a confirmed viral load <60 copies/mL and a median CD4 count of 466 cells/mm3. NRTI and NNRTI RAMs were detected in 39/60 (65.0%) and 41/60 (68.3%) HIV-1 DNA sequences, respectively. Over 48 weeks of monotherapy, 16/81 (19.8%) patients experienced virological failure. After adjusting for age, HIV-1 DNA load, adherence by VAS and RAM status, virological failure was less likely with higher VAS-measured adherence (adjusted OR 0.04, 95% CI 0.01-0.37; P = 0.004) and detectable HIV-1 DNA RAMs (adjusted OR 0.15, 95% CI 0.03-0.82; P = 0.028).
CONCLUSIONS
Pre-existing NRTI and NNRTI RAMs are associated with improved virological responses to NRTI-sparing ART in sub-Saharan Africa, indicating a predictive effect that is independent of residual NRTI activity.",2019,"CONCLUSIONS

933,31303297,"The effect of report cards on the coverage of maternal and neonatal health care: a factorial, cluster-randomised controlled trial in Uttar Pradesh, India.","BACKGROUND
Report cards are a prominent strategy to increase the ability of citizens to express their view, improve public accountability, and foster community participation in the provision of health services in low-income and middle-income countries. In India, social accountability interventions that incorporate report cards and community meetings have been implemented at scale, attracting considerable policy attention, but there is little evidence on their effectiveness in improving health. We aimed to evaluate the effect of report cards, which contain information on village-level indicators of maternal and neonatal health care, and participatory meetings targeted at health providers and community members (including local leaders) on the coverage of maternal and neonatal health care in Uttar Pradesh, India.
METHODS
We conducted a repeated cross-sectional, 2 × 2 factorial, cluster-randomised controlled trial, in which each cluster was a village (rural) or ward (urban). The clusters were randomly assigned to one of four groups: the provider group, in which we shared report cards and held participatory meetings with providers of maternal and neonatal health services; the community group, in which we shared report cards and held participatory meetings with community members (including local leaders); the providers and community group, in which report cards were targeted at both health providers and the community; and the control group, in which report cards were not shared with anyone. We generated these report cards by collating data from household surveys and shared the report cards with the recipients (as determined by their assigned groups) in participatory meetings. The primary outcome was the proportion of women who had at least four antenatal care visits (ie, attended a clinic or were visited at home by a health-care worker) during their last pregnancy. We measured outcomes with cross-sectional household surveys that were taken at baseline, at a first follow-up (after 8 months of the intervention), and at a second follow-up (21 months after the start of the intervention). Analyses were by intention to treat. This trial is registered with ISRCTN, number ISRCTN11070792.
FINDINGS
We surveyed eligible women for the baseline survey between Jan 13, and Feb 5, 2015. We then randomly assigned 44 clusters to the provider group, 45 clusters to the community group, 45 clusters to the provider and community group, and 44 clusters to the control group. Report cards of collated survey data were provided to recipient groups, as per their random allocation, in October, 2015, and in September, 2016. We ran the first follow-up survey between May 16 and June 10, 2016. We ran the second follow-up survey between June 18 and July 18, 2017. We measured the primary outcome in 3133 women (795 in the provider group, 781 in the community group, 798 in the provider and community group, and 759 in the control group) who gave birth during implementation of the intervention, between Feb 1, 2016, and July 18, 2017 (the end of the second follow-up survey). The report card intervention did not significantly affect the proportion of women who had at least four antenatal care visits (provider vs non-provider: odds ratio 0·85, 95% CI 0·65-1·13; community vs non-community: 0·86, 0·65-1·13).
INTERPRETATION
Maternal health report cards containing information on village performance, targeted at either the community or health providers, had no detectable effect on the coverage of maternal and neonatal health care. Future research should seek to understand how the content of information and the delivery of report cards affect the success of this type of social accountability intervention.

934,31287437,Intratympanic Steroid Treatment of Bell's Palsy in Patients with Comorbid Disease: A Preliminary Report.,"OBJECTIVES
This study evaluated the efficacy of intratympanic steroid injection (ITSI)as initial treatment and therecovery speed for Bell's palsy (BP)inpatients with diabetes mellitus (DM)and/or hypertension (HT).
MATERIALS AND METHODS
In total,90 patients with comorbid diseases diagnosed with BP received either ITSI (study group, n=61) or systemic steroid treatment (SST) (control group, n=29).The facial nerve function was assessed using the House-Brackmann (HB) grading system for up to 6 months or until complete recovery from BP. To investigate a relationship with the complete recovery time from BP, hematologic and baseline characteristic parameters were analyzed.
RESULTS
The complete recovery rate of the ITSI and SST groups was 47.5% and 44.8% at the 1st month, 70.5% and 89.7% at the 3rd month, and 96.7% and 100% at the 6th month of the study, respectively. Lymphocyte and neutrophil values were significantly associated with the complete recovery time from BP. No major adverse events from ITSI itself were noticed during the procedure and during the follow-up of the treatment.
CONCLUSION
Both treatment types have no superiorities over each other in initial treatment for BP in patients with comorbid diseases.

935,32406770,Development of Quality-Controlled Low-Dose Protocols for Radiography in the Neonatal ICU Using a New Mobile Digital Radiography System.,"OBJECTIVE. The aim of this study was to develop a low-dose radiography protocol for the neonatal ICU (NICU) using a new mobile digital radiography system with advanced denoising image processing and to evaluate the noninferiority of that protocol. SUBJECTS AND METHODS. In this prospective randomized study, 40 neonates in the NICU underwent radiography of the thorax and abdomen with two different mobile radiography units: conventional technique on one unit (50 kV, 1.6 mAs, and no additional filtration) and a new technique on another unit (54 kV, 0.1-mm Cu filtration). Three low-dose protocols for the second unit were developed in a phantom study: protocol A (100% equivalent dose with conventional protocol), protocol B (80% equivalent dose), and protocol C (64% equivalent dose). The noninferiority of each low-dose protocol was assessed by three independent readers using image quality criteria. RESULTS. Forty patients each underwent three pairs of radiography examinations (protocol A and the conventional protocol, protocol B and the conventional protocol, and protocol C and the conventional protocol), except one pair that did not include one image of the conventional protocol. The interrater reliability among the three readers was 0.91 ( p < 0.001). Both of the low-dose protocols (B and C) were statistically noninferior to the conventional protocol with respect to overall image quality. Protocol B better depicted almost all anatomic landmarks and had better overall image quality than the conventional protocol. CONCLUSION. Using appropriate technique and acquisition factors, radiation dose can be lowered on a digital radiography system without significant effect on the image quality by adding filtrations and a new denoising technique.",2020,"Using appropriate technique and acquisition factors, radiation dose can be lowered on a digital radiography system without significant effect on the image quality by adding filtrations and a new denoising technique.","['40 neonates in the NICU underwent radiography of the thorax and abdomen with two different mobile radiography units: conventional technique on one unit (50 kV, 1.6 mAs, and no additional filtration) and a new technique on another unit (54 kV', 'Forty patients each underwent three pairs of']","['radiography examinations (protocol A and the conventional protocol, protocol B and the conventional protocol, and protocol C and the conventional protocol), except one pair that did not include one image of the conventional protocol']","['overall image quality', 'interrater reliability']","[{'cui': 'C0003065', 'cui_str': 'Animals, Neonatal'}, {'cui': 'C0021709', 'cui_str': 'Neonatal intensive care unit'}, {'cui': 'C0034571', 'cui_str': 'radiography'}, {'cui': 'C0817096', 'cui_str': 'Thoracic'}, {'cui': 'C0000726', 'cui_str': 'Abdominal'}, {'cui': 'C0439148', 'cui_str': 'Unit'}, {'cui': 'C0439858', 'cui_str': 'Conventional'}, {'cui': 'C0025664', 'cui_str': 'methods'}, {'cui': 'C4517508', 'cui_str': '1.6'}, {'cui': 'C0016107', 'cui_str': 'Filtration'}, {'cui': 'C0205314', 'cui_str': 'New'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patient'}]","[{'cui': 'C0034571', 'cui_str': 'radiography'}, {'cui': 'C0031809', 'cui_str': 'Physical examination'}, {'cui': 'C0442711', 'cui_str': 'Protocols'}, {'cui': 'C0439858', 'cui_str': 'Conventional'}, {'cui': 'C1299585', 'cui_str': 'Does not'}, {'cui': 'C0332257', 'cui_str': 'Including'}, {'cui': 'C1846009', 'cui_str': 'Intrauterine growth restriction, metaphyseal dysplasia, adrenal hypoplasia congenita, and genital anomaly syndrome'}]","[{'cui': 'C0282416', 'cui_str': 'Overall'}, {'cui': 'C1846009', 'cui_str': 'Intrauterine growth restriction, metaphyseal dysplasia, adrenal hypoplasia congenita, and genital anomaly syndrome'}, {'cui': 'C0332306', 'cui_str': 'Quality'}, {'cui': 'C0035035', 'cui_str': 'Reliability (Epidemiology)'}]",,0.0597311,"Using appropriate technique and acquisition factors, radiation dose can be lowered on a digital radiography system without significant effect on the image quality by adding filtrations and a new denoising technique.","[{'ForeName': 'Gayoung', 'Initials': 'G', 'LastName': 'Choi', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Radiology and Institute of Radiation Medicine, Seoul National University Hospital, 101 Daehak-ro, Jongo-gu, Seoul 03080, Korea.'}, {'ForeName': 'Jung-Eun', 'Initials': 'JE', 'LastName': 'Cheon', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Radiology and Institute of Radiation Medicine, Seoul National University Hospital, 101 Daehak-ro, Jongo-gu, Seoul 03080, Korea.'}, {'ForeName': 'Seunghyun', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Lee', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Radiology and Institute of Radiation Medicine, Seoul National University Hospital, 101 Daehak-ro, Jongo-gu, Seoul 03080, Korea.'}, {'ForeName': 'Young Hun', 'Initials': 'YH', 'LastName': 'Choi', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Radiology and Institute of Radiation Medicine, Seoul National University Hospital, 101 Daehak-ro, Jongo-gu, Seoul 03080, Korea.'}, {'ForeName': 'Seung Han', 'Initials': 'SH', 'LastName': 'Shin', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Pediatrics, Seoul National University Hospital, Seoul, Korea.'}, {'ForeName': 'Yeon Jin', 'Initials': 'YJ', 'LastName': 'Cho', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Radiology and Institute of Radiation Medicine, Seoul National University Hospital, 101 Daehak-ro, Jongo-gu, Seoul 03080, Korea.'}, {'ForeName': 'Sun Won', 'Initials': 'SW', 'LastName': 'Park', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Radiology, Seoul National University, Seoul Metropolitan Government Boramae Medical Center, Seoul, Korea.'}]",AJR.

936,31297968,Efficacy and safety of linagliptin to improve glucose control in older people with type 2 diabetes on stable insulin therapy: A randomized trial.,"AIM
To assess the addition of linagliptin as an alternative to insulin uptitration in older people with type 2 diabetes on stable insulin therapy.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
This phase 4, randomized, multicentre, double-blinded, placebo-controlled, 24-week study recruited individuals on stable insulin, with baseline HbA1c 7.0%-10.0%, aged ≥60 years and body mass index ≤45 kg/m 2 . HbA1c and fasting plasma glucose were measured at study visits, and participants assessed glycaemic control with a self-monitoring blood glucose device. Adverse events (AEs) were reported during the study.
RESULTS
Three hundred and two participants were randomized 1:1 to linagliptin 5 mg qd and placebo, with one third of patients from Japan. Study population age and HbA1c (baseline mean ± SD) were 72.4 ± 5.4 years and 8.2 ± 0.8%, respectively; ~80% of participants were aged ≥70 years; 80% had macrovascular complications, one third had a baseline estimated glomerular filtration rate <60 mL/min/1.73 m 2 ; and half had been diagnosed with diabetes for >15 years. Linagliptin significantly improved glucose control at 24 weeks (HbA1c-adjusted mean change vs. placebo: -0.63%; P <0.0001) and the probability of achieving predefined HbA1c targets without hypoglycaemia (HbA1c <8.0%: OR 2.02; P <0.05 and HbA1c <7.0%: OR 2.44; P <0.01). Linagliptin versus placebo was well tolerated, with similar incidences of AEs, including clinically important hypoglycaemia (blood glucose <54 mg/dL) or severe hypoglycaemia.

We compared PATCH to an active control condition on self-reported adherence, clinical outcomes, and psychosocial outcomes. Participants were 34 individuals (61.8% male, M age = 47.1) receiving HIV-related services who were suboptimally engaged in care. Participants completed baseline measures, participated in either PATCH or a stress reduction skills control intervention, and completed post-treatment and 3-month follow-up assessments. Results revealed no differences between conditions on adherence or clinical outcomes. At post-treatment, PATCH participants reported greater improvements in alcohol use, psychiatric symptoms, subjective mental functioning, and emotion-focused coping; improvements in subjective mental functioning were maintained at 3-months.

938,31228760,"Analgesia-first sedation in critically ill adults: A U.S. pilot, randomized controlled trial.","PURPOSE
To determine the feasibility of conducting a multicenter ICU RCT of AFS compared to either protocol-directed sedation (PDS) or both PDS and daily sedation interruption (DSI) in North America.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
This single-center RCT compared AFS [fentanyl (bolus ± infusions) to reach CPOT ≤2; if RASS ≥1, CPOT ≤2 and additional fentanyl failed to reach RASS goal (-2 to 0), low-dose propofol (up to 6 h) was given] with either PDS or both PDS and DSI daily in adults mechanically ventilated (MV) ≥48 h. Relevant feasibility, safety, and clinical outcomes were defined and evaluated.
RESULTS
90 of 160 eligible patients were enrolled [AFS = 27; PDS = 28; PDS + DSI = 31]; rate = 3/month. Time from intubation to randomization was 17.5 ± 11.6 h. Study days fully adherent to the study intervention [AFS = 95%; PDS = 99%; PDS + DSI = 96%] and time spent in the first 48 h after randomization without pain (CPOT ≤2)[AFS = 82%; PDS = 78%; PDS + DSI = 77%] and at goal RASS[AFS = 88%; PDS = 83%; PDS + DSI = 95%] were high and similar. Nurse-perceived [median (IQR)] study workload (10-point VAS) was higher with AFS [4(2-6)] than PDS [1(1-3)] or PDS + DSI [2(1-5)]; p = .002). Unplanned extubation was rare (AFS = 1; PDS = 0; PDS + DSI = 1).

939,31174172,Variability in triage practices for critically ill cancer patients: A randomized controlled trial.,"PURPOSE
Intensive care triage practices and end-user interpretation of triage guidelines have rarely been assessed. We evaluated agreement between providers on the prioritization of patients for ICU admission using different triage guidelines.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
A multi-centered randomized study on providers from 18 different countries was conducted using clinical vignettes of oncological patients. The level of agreement between providers was measured using two different guidelines, with one being cancer specific.
RESULTS
Amongst 257 providers, 52.5% randomly received the Society of Critical Care Prioritization Model, and 47.5% received a cancer specific flowchart as a guide. In the Prioritization Model arm the average entropy was 1.193, versus 1.153 in the flowchart arm (P = .095) indicating similarly poor agreement. The Fleiss' kappa coefficients were estimated to be 0.2136 for the SCCMPM arm and 0.2457 for the flowchart arm, also similarly implying poor agreement.
CONCLUSIONS
The low agreement amongst practitioners on the prioritization of cancer patient cases for ICU admission existed using both general triage guidelines and guidelines tailored only to cancer patients. The lack of consensus on intensive care unit triage practices in the oncological population exposes a potential barrier to appropriate resource allocation that needs to be addressed.",2019,The low agreement amongst practitioners on the prioritization of cancer patient cases for ICU admission existed using both general triage guidelines and guidelines tailored only to cancer patients.,"['critically ill cancer patients', 'providers from 18 different countries was conducted using clinical vignettes of oncological patients']",[],"[""Fleiss' kappa coefficients"", 'average entropy']","[{'cui': 'C0010340', 'cui_str': 'Critically Ill'}, {'cui': 'C1306459', 'cui_str': 'Primary malignant neoplasm'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C0454664', 'cui_str': 'Country (geographic location)'}, {'cui': 'C0004927', 'cui_str': 'Behavior'}, {'cui': 'C0205210', 'cui_str': 'Clinical (qualifier value)'}]",[],"[{'cui': 'C0439099', 'cui_str': 'Kappa'}, {'cui': 'C0376522', 'cui_str': 'Entropy'}]",,0.0951624,The low agreement amongst practitioners on the prioritization of cancer patient cases for ICU admission existed using both general triage guidelines and guidelines tailored only to cancer patients.,"[{'ForeName': 'Nisha K', 'Initials': 'NK', 'LastName': 'Rathi', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Critical Care, The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, 1515 Holcombe Blvd., Unit 112, Houston, TX 77030, United States of America.

940,31282418,Can Adults with Mild Cognitive Impairment Build Cognitive Reserve and Learn Mindfulness Meditation? Qualitative Theme Analyses from a Small Pilot Study.,"BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVE
High levels of chronic stress negatively impact the hippocampus and are associated with increased incidence of mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and Alzheimer's disease. While mindfulness meditation may mitigate the effects of chronic stress, it is uncertain if adults with MCI have the capacity to learn mindfulness meditation.
METHODS
14 adults with MCI were randomized 2:1 to Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) or a wait-list control group. We conducted qualitative interviews with those who completed MBSR. Transcribed interviews were: a) coded using an emergent themes inductive approach informed by grounded theory; b) rated 0-10, with higher scores reflecting greater perceived benefit from, and understanding of, mindfulness meditation. Ratings were correlated with daily home practice times and baseline level of cognitive function.
RESULTS
Seven themes emerged from the interviews: positive perceptions of class; development of mindfulness skills, including meta-cognition; importance of the group experience; enhanced well-being; shift in MCI perspective; decreased stress reactivity and increased relaxation; improvement in interpersonal skills. Ratings of perceived benefit and understanding ranged from 2-10 (mean = 7) and of 0-9.5 (mean = 6), respectively. Many participants experienced substantial benefit/understanding, some had moderate, and a few had minimal benefit/understanding. Understanding the key concepts of mindfulness was highly positively correlated with ≥20 minutes/day of home practice (r = 0.90) but not with baseline cognitive function (r = 0.13).
CONCLUSIONS
Most adults with MCI were able to learn mindfulness meditation and had improved MCI acceptance, self-efficacy, and social engagement. Cognitive reserve may be enhanced through a mindfulness meditation program even in patients with MCI.",2019,"CONCLUSIONS

941,32406783,A Robotic Camera Holder Controlled by Head Movements: Exploring This New Robot-Surgeon Interface.,"Background. Most robotic camera steering devices (RCSDs) require active steering by the surgeon and necessarily increase workload. Clinical experience shows that standard laparoscopic procedures can be performed safely as solo surgery aided by RCSDs. No evidence exists concerning exploratory or emergency procedures. We compared the performance during unexpected laparoscopic tasks on surgical simulators aided either by an RCSD controllable by head movements of the surgeon or by a human camera assistant. Methods. Forty-five medical students without previous experience with minimal invasive surgery were randomized in 2 groups, and they performed standard and unexpected laparoscopic tasks requiring complex camera movements on box trainers either using an RCSD or assisted by a human camera assistant. Efficiency and performance parameters were recorded. Results. Performance in simulated standard procedures was equivalent. In simulated exploratory procedures, we saw significantly better performance scores in the conventional group versus the RCSD group. The strongest factor for these differences was the longer camera-adjusting time in the RCSD group versus the conventional group (PEG task = 208 ± 51 seconds vs 170 ± 36 seconds, P = .005; suture task = 563 ± 126 seconds vs 454 ± 201 seconds, P = .041). Conclusion. These results, obtained on surgical simulators, indicate that the solo approach to standard surgical tasks, facilitated by an RCSD controllable by head movements, can most likely be viewed as safe. Exploratory procedures with a relevant chance for complications or procedures that require rapid, often, or complex camera movements should rather be performed with a human camera assistant.",2020,Performance in simulated standard procedures was equivalent.,"['Head Movements', 'Forty-five medical students without previous experience with minimal invasive surgery']","['standard laparoscopic procedures', 'robotic camera steering devices (RCSDs', 'standard and unexpected laparoscopic tasks requiring complex camera movements on box trainers either using an RCSD or assisted by a human camera assistant', 'RCSD controllable by head movements of the surgeon or by a human camera assistant']","['Efficiency and performance parameters', 'performance scores']","[{'cui': 'C0376591', 'cui_str': 'Head Movements'}, {'cui': 'C4319567', 'cui_str': '45'}, {'cui': 'C0038495', 'cui_str': 'Medical student'}, {'cui': 'C0205156', 'cui_str': 'Previous'}, {'cui': 'C0023672', 'cui_str': 'Life Experiences'}, {'cui': 'C0547040', 'cui_str': 'Minimal'}, {'cui': 'C0205281', 'cui_str': 'Invasive'}, {'cui': 'C0038895', 'cui_str': 'operative procedures'}]","[{'cui': 'C0038137', 'cui_str': 'standards'}, {'cui': 'C0031150', 'cui_str': 'Laparoscopy'}, {'cui': 'C0035785', 'cui_str': 'Robotics'}, {'cui': 'C0179533', 'cui_str': 'Camera'}, {'cui': 'C0553654', 'cui_str': 'Does steer'}, {'cui': 'C0025080', 'cui_str': 'Biomedical equipment'}, {'cui': 'C0056210', 'cui_str': 'complex V (mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation system)'}, {'cui': 'C0026649', 'cui_str': 'Movement'}, {'cui': 'C0006080', 'cui_str': 'Boxing'}, {'cui': 'C0453962', 'cui_str': 'Trainers'}, {'cui': 'C0018896', 'cui_str': 'Helping Behavior'}, {'cui': 'C0086418', 'cui_str': 'Homo sapiens'}, {'cui': 'C0011327', 'cui_str': 'Dental assistant'}, {'cui': 'C0376591', 'cui_str': 'Head Movements'}, {'cui': 'C0582175', 'cui_str': 'Surgeon'}]","[{'cui': 'C0013682', 'cui_str': 'Efficiency'}, {'cui': 'C0449381', 'cui_str': 'Observation parameter'}, {'cui': 'C0449820', 'cui_str': 'Score'}]",,0.0290005,Performance in simulated standard procedures was equivalent.,"[{'ForeName': 'Julian Nikolaus', 'Initials': 'JN', 'LastName': 'Bucher', 'Affiliation': 'Department of General, Visceral and Transplantation Surgery, Ludwig-Maximilians-University, Munich, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Katharina', 'Initials': 'K', 'LastName': 'Bruewer', 'Affiliation': 'Department of General, Visceral and Transplantation Surgery, Ludwig-Maximilians-University, Munich, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Louisa Jutta', 'Initials': 'LJ', 'LastName': 'Dietz', 'Affiliation': 'Department of General, Visceral and Transplantation Surgery, Ludwig-Maximilians-University, Munich, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Nicole', 'Initials': 'N', 'LastName': 'Trebesius', 'Affiliation': 'Department of General, Visceral and Transplantation Surgery, Ludwig-Maximilians-University, Munich, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Johanna', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Hidding', 'Affiliation': 'Department of General, Visceral and Transplantation Surgery, Ludwig-Maximilians-University, Munich, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Michal', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Wysocki', 'Affiliation': 'Jagiellonian University, Kraków, Poland.'}, {'ForeName': 'Markus Bo', 'Initials': 'MB', 'LastName': 'Schoenberg', 'Affiliation': 'Department of General, Visceral and Transplantation Surgery, Ludwig-Maximilians-University, Munich, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Jens', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Werner', 'Affiliation': 'Department of General, Visceral and Transplantation Surgery, Ludwig-Maximilians-University, Munich, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Konrad', 'Initials': 'K', 'LastName': 'Karcz', 'Affiliation': 'Department of General, Visceral and Transplantation Surgery, Ludwig-Maximilians-University, Munich, Germany.'}]",Surgical innovation,['10.1177/1553350620916573']
942,31268268,The influence of biphasic positive airway pressure vs. sham biphasic positive airway pressure on pulmonary function in morbidly obese patients after bariatric surgery.,"BACKGROUND
The effect of biphasic positive airway pressure (BPAP) at individualized pressures on the postoperative pulmonary recovery of morbidly obese patients (MOP) undergoing open bariatric surgery (OBS) and possible placebo device-related effects (sham BPAP) were investigated.
METHODS
Forty-eight MOP scheduled for OBS were initially enrolled. Subjects were randomly assigned to: A) the BPAP group in which BPAP, at individualized inspiratory positive airway pressure/expiratory positive airway pressure (IPAP/EPAP), was applied for 3 days postoperatively and B) the sham BPAP group in which sham BPAP was applied for the same time. Pulmonary function was assessed by spirometry 24 h prior to surgery and at 24, 48 and 72 h postoperatively and respiratory complications were recorded.
RESULTS
Thirty-five subjects, 21 in the BPAP group and 14 in the sham BPAP group, completed the study. Baseline characteristics and pulmonary function were similar between groups preoperatively. Subjects in the BPAP group showed in general better spirometric performance and SpO2 values postoperatively and expedited pulmonary recovery. Atelectasis combined with respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) symptoms was observed in 21% of subjects in the sham BPAP group and one of these subjects developed lower respiratory tract infection. No respiratory complications were recorded in the BPAP group. Use of higher BPAP pressures was not associated with anastomosis leakage or disruption in any patient.

944,31679621,Early and Mid-Term Vascular Responses to Optical Coherence Tomography-Guided Everolimus-Eluting Stent Implantation in Stable Coronary Artery Disease.,"BACKGROUND
Analysis of pooled clinical data has shown the safety of 3 months of dual antiplatelet therapy with everolimus-eluting cobalt-chromium stents (Co-Cr EESs). This study evaluated early and mid-term vascular responses to Co-Cr EESs in patients with stable coronary artery disease.
METHODS
The Multicenter Comparison of Early and Late Vascular Responses to Everolimus-Eluting Cobalt-Chromium Stent and Platelet Aggregation Studies in Patients With Stable Angina Managed as Elective Case (MECHANISM-Elective) study (NCT02014818) is a multicenter optical coherence tomography (OCT) registry. Enrolled patients were evaluated by OCT immediately after everolimus-eluting stent implantation were prospectively allocated to 1 month (n = 50) or 3 months (n = 50) OCT follow-up and then received a 12-month OCT evaluation. The incidences of intrastent thrombus (IS-Th) and irregular protrusion (IRP) were also assessed.
RESULTS
The percentage of uncovered struts was 6.4% ± 10.3% at 1 month (P < 0.001 vs. postprocedure) and 0.5% ± 0.9% at 12 months (P < 0.001 vs. 1 month). The corresponding values in the 3-month cohort were 2.0% ± 2.5% (P < 0.001 vs. postprocedure) and 0.5% ± 1.5% (P < 0.001 vs. 3 months). The incidence of IS-Th was 32.7% at 1 month, 5.4% at 3 months, and 2.0% at 12 months. IRP was observed in 21.8% of patients post-EES but had totally resolved at 1, 3, and 12 months.
CONCLUSION
Early and mid-term vascular reactions after Co-Cr EES implantation in stable patients with coronary artery disease in the MECHANISM-Elective included dynamic resolution of IS-Th and IRP and rapid decrease in uncovered struts. Thus, EES may allow shortening of dual antiplatelet therapy duration less than 3 months in this patient subset.",2019,The percentage of uncovered struts was 6.4% ± 10.3% at 1 month (P < 0.001 vs. postprocedure) and 0.5% ± 0.9% at 12 months (P < 0.001 vs. 1 month).,"['stable patients with coronary artery disease', 'Patients', 'Enrolled patients were evaluated by OCT immediately after everolimus-eluting stent implantation', 'patients with stable coronary artery disease', 'Stable Coronary Artery Disease']","['Optical Coherence Tomography-Guided Everolimus-Eluting Stent Implantation', 'Early and mid-term vascular reactions after Co-Cr EES implantation', 'Co-Cr EESs', 'everolimus-eluting cobalt-chromium stents (Co-Cr EESs', 'Everolimus-Eluting Cobalt-Chromium Stent']","['IRP', 'incidences of intrastent thrombus (IS-Th) and irregular protrusion (IRP']","[{'cui': 'C0205360', 'cui_str': 'Stable'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patient'}, {'cui': 'C0010054', 'cui_str': 'Coronary arteriosclerosis'}, {'cui': 'C0920367', 'cui_str': 'Optical coherence tomography'}, {'cui': 'C0205548', 'cui_str': 'Stat'}, {'cui': 'C0541315', 'cui_str': 'everolimus'}, {'cui': 'C0038257', 'cui_str': 'Stent'}, {'cui': 'C0021107', 'cui_str': 'Implantation procedure'}]","[{'cui': 'C0920367', 'cui_str': 'Optical coherence tomography'}, {'cui': 'C0181090', 'cui_str': 'Guide'}, {'cui': 'C0541315', 'cui_str': 'everolimus'}, {'cui': 'C0038257', 'cui_str': 'Stent'}, {'cui': 'C0021107', 'cui_str': 'Implantation procedure'}, {'cui': 'C1279919', 'cui_str': 'Early'}, {'cui': 'C0444598', 'cui_str': 'Mid'}, {'cui': 'C0233324', 'cui_str': 'Term birth of newborn'}, {'cui': 'C0005847', 'cui_str': 'Blood vessel structure'}, {'cui': 'C0443286', 'cui_str': 'Reaction'}, {'cui': 'C0009148', 'cui_str': 'Cobalt'}, {'cui': 'C0008574', 'cui_str': 'Chromium'}]","[{'cui': 'C0205271', 'cui_str': 'Irregular'}, {'cui': 'C0333056', 'cui_str': 'Protrusion'}, {'cui': 'C0021149', 'cui_str': 'Incidence'}, {'cui': 'C0087086', 'cui_str': 'Thrombus'}]",50.0,0.0322582,The percentage of uncovered struts was 6.4% ± 10.3% at 1 month (P < 0.001 vs. postprocedure) and 0.5% ± 0.9% at 12 months (P < 0.001 vs. 1 month).,"[{'ForeName': 'Toshiro', 'Initials': 'T', 'LastName': 'Shinke', 'Affiliation': 'Kobe University Graduate School of Medicine, Kobe, Japan; Showa University School of Medicine, Tokyo, Japan.

945,32409778,A pragmatic randomized controlled trial testing the effects of the international scientific SCI exercise guidelines on SCI chronic pain: protocol for the EPIC-SCI trial.,"STUDY DESIGN
Protocol for a pragmatic randomized controlled trial (the Exercise guideline Promotion and Implementation in Chronic SCI [EPIC-SCI] Trial).
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES
To test if home-/community-based exercise, prescribed according to the international SCI exercise guidelines, significantly reduces chronic bodily pain in adults with SCI.
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES
To investigate: (1) the effects of exercise on musculoskeletal and neuropathic chronic pain; (2) if reduced inflammation and increased descending inhibitory control are viable pathways by which exercise reduces pain; (3) the effects of chronic pain reductions on subjective well-being; and (4) efficiency of a home-/community-based exercise intervention.
SETTING
Exercise in home-/community-based settings; assessments in university-based laboratories in British Columbia, Canada.
METHOD
Eighty-four adults with chronic SCI, reporting chronic musculoskeletal or neuropathic pain, and not meeting the current SCI exercise guidelines, will be recruited and randomized to a 6-month Exercise or Wait-List Control condition. Exercise will occur in home/community settings and will be supported through behavioral counseling. All measures will be taken at baseline, 3-months and 6-months. Analyses will consist of linear mixed effect models, multiple regression analyses and a cost-utility analysis. The economic evaluation will examine the incremental costs and health benefits generated by the intervention compared with usual care.
ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION

946,31202690,"Low-dose ritonavir-boosted darunavir once daily versus ritonavir-boosted lopinavir for participants with less than 50 HIV RNA copies per mL (WRHI 052): a randomised, open-label, phase 3, non-inferiority trial.","BACKGROUND
Pilot studies suggest that ritonavir-boosted darunavir could show high efficacy at doses below those currently approved. We investigated whether switch to 400 mg of darunavir boosted with 100 mg ritonavir once daily could show equivalent efficacy to continuation of ritonavir-boosted lopinavir (a protease inhibitor commonly used in low-income and middle-income countries) for individuals with HIV RNA suppression.
METHODS
In the WRHI 052 study, a randomised, parallel-group, open-label, non-inferiority phase 3 trial, adults who were HIV-1 positive were enrolled in Charlotte Maxeke Johannesburg Academic Hospital, Johannesburg, South Africa. Eligible participants were 18 years or older, who tolerated ritonavir-boosted lopinavir in combination with two nucleoside analogues (standard of care) for 6 months or more, and had plasma HIV-1 RNA of less than 50 copies per mL within 60 days of enrolment. We randomly assigned participants (1:1), using a computer-generated randomisation plan, to switch to darunavir (400 mg) boosted with ritonavir (100 mg) once daily or remain on ritonavir-boosted lopinavir (800 mg [plus 200 mg ritonavir]), with nucleoside analogues left unchanged. The primary endpoint was the proportion of patients with less than 50 HIV-1 RNA copies per mL at week 48 (US Food and Drug Administration snapshot algorithm; non-inferiority margin -4%). Primary and safety analyses included participants receiving at least one dose of darunavir boosted with ritonavir. This trial is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, number NCT02671383.
FINDINGS
Between June 30, 2016, and June 15, 2017, 148 participants were assigned to ritonavir-boosted darunavir 400 mg and 152 continued on their lopinavir-containing regimen. Four (3%) patients in the darunavir group and three (2%) in the lopinavir group discontinued before week 48. At week 48, darunavir was non-inferior to lopinavir for the primary outcome (142 [96%] of 148 participants on darunavir had <50 HIV-1 RNA copies per mL vs 143 [94%] of 152 participants on lopinavir; difference 1·9% [95% CI -3·4 to 7·3]), with a predefined margin of -4%. More participants taking darunavir (30 [20%] participants) had drug-related adverse events than those on lopinavir (eight [5%]), but the adverse events were generally asymptomatic and resolved when switching back to lopinavir. Elevated liver transaminase in three (1%; one symptomatic) darunavir participants led to study withdrawal; all transaminase elevations resolved on restarting lopinavir.
INTERPRETATION
Low-dose ritonavir-boosted darunavir might be a safe and efficacious switch option to maintain HIV suppression for patients on lopinavir. However, an adequately powered and designed study in viraemic participants is needed.

948,32409917,Evaluation of FOLFOX or CAPOX reintroduction with or without bevacizumab in relapsed colorectal cancer patients treated with oxaliplatin as adjuvant chemotherapy (REACT study).,"BACKGROUND
Chemotherapy in relapsed colorectal cancer patients treated with oxaliplatin as adjuvant chemotherapy is under debate. REACT study aimed to investigate the efficacy of reintroducing modified FOLFOX6 (mFOLFOX6) or CAPOX with or without bevacizumab in recurrent colorectal cancer patients after oxaliplatin adjuvant chemotherapy.
METHODS
Patients that participated in this trial had a medical history of adjuvant chemotherapy, including oxaliplatin with a cumulative dose greater than 400 mg/m 2 , and recurrence that was diagnosed more six months post adjuvant chemotherapy. Primary endpoints were response rate (RR) and disease control rate (DCR), while key secondary endpoints were time to treatment failure (TTF), progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), and safety.
RESULTS
A total of 31 patients were enrolled between October 2012 and October 2016. Of the 29 eligible patients, 7 received mFOLFOX6 and 22 received CAPOX. The RR was 62.1% (95% confidence interval 42.3-79.3) and the DCR was 82.8% (95% confidence interval 64.2-94.2). The RR for oxaliplatin-free interval was 100.0% in months 6-12 and 56.0% after 12 months. Median TTF, PFS, and OS were 6.3, 10.8, and 28.7 months, respectively. Grade 3 or worse peripheral sensory neuropathy developed in 6.5%. Allergic reactions occurred in 12.9% of the patients, with one (3.2%) grade 3 episode. There were no other severe treatment-related adverse events.
CONCLUSION
Reintroduction of oxaliplatin was feasible and achieved high RR or DCR in patients after more than 6 months post oxaliplatin adjuvant chemotherapy.",2020,Reintroduction of oxaliplatin was feasible and

Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy might decrease left ventricular (LV) and right ventricular (RV) loads and improve cardiac mechanical function in patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). However, the benefits of CPAP therapy for cardiac mechanical function in patients with OSA have not previously been proved in a randomized, sham-controlled clinical trial. This study therefore investigated the effects of CPAP therapy on LV and RV mechanical function in patients with severe OSA and compared them with the effects of a sham intervention.
METHODS
In this randomized sham-controlled trial, we analyzed LV and RV function by conventional and speckle-tracking echocardiography before and after 3 months of treatment in 52 patients with severe OSA. Patients were randomly assigned (1:1) to receive either CPAP or sham treatment for 3 months. The main investigator and patients were masked to the trial randomization.
RESULTS
After 3 months, CPAP treatment significantly improved LV global longitudinal strain (GLS) compared with the sham treatment (-20.0% ± 2.1% vs -18.0% ± 2.5%; P = .004), although there were no differences in LV dimension or ejection fraction. CPAP treatment reduced RV size and improved the fractional area change (51.3% ± 7.9% vs 46.9% ± 6.7%; P = .038) compared with the sham treatment. CPAP treatment did not ameliorate the RV GLS compared with the sham treatment.

951,30929973,Does prior coronary angioplasty affect outcomes of surgical coronary revascularization? Insights from the STICH trial.,"BACKGROUND
The STICH trial showed superiority of coronary artery bypass plus medical treatment (CABG) over medical treatment alone (MED) in patients with left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≤35%. In previous publications, percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) prior to CABG was associated with worse prognosis.
OBJECTIVES
The main purpose of this study was to analyse if prior PCI influenced outcomes in STICH.
METHODS AND RESULTS
Patients in the STICH trial (n = 1212), followed for a median time of 9.8 years, were included in the present analyses. In the total population, 156 had a prior PCI (74 and 82, respectively, in the MED and CABG groups). In those with vs. without prior PCI, the adjusted hazard-ratios (aHRs) were 0.92 (95% CI = 0.74-1.15) for all-cause mortality, 0.85 (95% CI = 0.64-1.11) for CV mortality, and 1.43 (95% CI = 1.15-1.77) for CV hospitalization. In the group randomized to CABG without prior PCI, the aHRs were 0.82 (95% CI = 0.70-0.95) for all-cause mortality, 0.75 (95% CI = 0.62-0.90) for CV mortality and 0.67 (95% CI = 0.56-0.80) for CV hospitalization. In the group randomized to CABG with prior PCI, the aHRs were 0.76 (95% CI = 0.50-1.15) for all-cause mortality, 0.81 (95% CI = 0.49-1.36) for CV mortality and 0.61 (95% CI = 0.41-0.90) for CV hospitalization. There was no evidence of interaction between randomized treatment and prior PCI for any endpoint (all adjusted p > 0.05).
CONCLUSION
In the STICH trial, prior PCI did not affect the outcomes of patients whether they were treated medically or surgically, and the superiority of CABG over MED remained unchanged regardless of prior PCI.

952,32409838,Study on the prevention of infection in terminal cancer patients applying epidural analgesia by adding cefazolin to anesthetics: a randomized controlled trial.,"OBJECTIVE
To observe the antibacterial effect of adding cefazolin into anesthetics in patients with terminal cancer undergoing long-term epidural analgesia.
METHODS
Patients undergoing epidural analgesia with terminal cancer were randomly divided into two groups: the conventional drug group (group C) and the cefazolin group (group G). Both groups were given levobupivacaine and morphine, while cefazolin was added to group G. The mean arterial pressure (MAP), heart rate (HR), respiratory rates (R), visual analogue scale (VAS) scores, satisfaction and complications of patients in the two groups were observed. 3 ml of the used analgesic was taken for bacterial culture when replacing the new analgesic case.
RESULTS
HR, MAP, R, VAS scores, dosages of morphine, satisfaction of the analgesic and the complications were not significantly different between the two groups (P > 0.05). The overall satisfaction of patients in group G was significantly higher than that in group C (P < 0.05). One patient's anesthetics in group C were infected with colibacillus. Four patients in group C got infected in their epidural puncture sites. There was no infection in group G (P < 0.05).
CONCLUSION
Adding cefazolin to local anesthetics could effectively prevent bacterial infection and ensured the safety of epidural analgesia for patients with terminal cancer.",2020,"VAS scores, dosages of morphine, satisfaction of the analgesic and the complications were not significantly different between the two groups (P > 0.05).","['terminal cancer patients applying', 'Patients undergoing epidural analgesia with terminal cancer', 'patients with terminal cancer undergoing long-term epidural analgesia', 'patients with terminal cancer']","['cefazolin to anesthetics', 'cefazolin into anesthetics', 'epidural analgesia', 'cefazolin', 'levobupivacaine and morphine, while cefazolin']","['mean arterial pressure (MAP), heart rate (HR), respiratory rates (R), visual analogue scale (VAS) scores, satisfaction and complications', 'overall satisfaction', 'VAS scores, dosages of morphine, satisfaction of the analgesic and the complications']","[{'cui': 'C0741884', 'cui_str': 'End stage cancer'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patient'}, {'cui': 'C1632850', 'cui_str': 'Apply'}, {'cui': 'C0002769', 'cui_str': 'Epidural analgesia'}, {'cui': 'C0205166', 'cui_str': 'Long'}, {'cui': 'C0233324', 'cui_str': 'Term birth of newborn'}]","[{'cui': 'C0007546', 'cui_str': 'Cefazolin'}, {'cui': 'C0002930', 'cui_str': 'Anesthetics'}, {'cui': 'C0002769', 'cui_str': 'Epidural analgesia'}, {'cui': 'C0873118', 'cui_str': 'Levobupivacaine'}, {'cui': 'C0026549', 'cui_str': 'Morphine'}]","[{'cui': 'C0428886', 'cui_str': 'Mean blood pressure'}, {'cui': 'C0018810', 'cui_str': 'Heart rate'}, {'cui': 'C0231832', 'cui_str': 'Respiratory rate'}, {'cui': 'C0042815', 'cui_str': 'Visual analog pain scale'}, {'cui': 'C0449820', 'cui_str': 'Score'}, {'cui': 'C0242428', 'cui_str': 'Satisfaction'}, {'cui': 'C0009566', 'cui_str': 'Complication'}, {'cui': 'C0282416', 'cui_str': 'Overall'}, {'cui': 'C2960751', 'cui_str': 'Visual analog scale score'}, {'cui': 'C0178602', 'cui_str': 'Dosage'}, {'cui': 'C0026549', 'cui_str': 'Morphine'}, {'cui': 'C0002771', 'cui_str': 'Analgesic'}]",4.0,0.0318469,"VAS scores, dosages of morphine, satisfaction of the analgesic and the complications were not significantly different between the two groups (P > 0.05).","[{'ForeName': 'Pengcheng', 'Initials': 'P', 'LastName': 'Xie', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Anesthesiology, Shanghai Pudong Hospital, Fudan University Pudong Medical Center, Pudong, Shanghai, China.'}, {'ForeName': 'Zhanfang', 'Initials': 'Z', 'LastName': 'Li', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Anesthesiology, Shanghai Pudong Hospital, Fudan University Pudong Medical Center, Pudong, Shanghai, China.'}, {'ForeName': 'Jingli', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Yang', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Anesthesiology, Shanghai Pudong Hospital, Fudan University Pudong Medical Center, Pudong, Shanghai, China.'}, {'ForeName': 'Yiming', 'Initials': 'Y', 'LastName': 'Wu', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Anesthesiology, Shanghai Pudong Hospital, Fudan University Pudong Medical Center, Pudong, Shanghai, China.'}]",Japanese journal of clinical oncology,['10.1093/jjco/hyaa060']

954,32409944,"Evidence for improved survival with bevacizumab treatment in recurrent high-grade gliomas: a retrospective study with (""pseudo-randomized"") treatment allocation by the health insurance provider.","INTRODUCTION
Despite a large number of trials, the role of bevacizumab (BEV) in the treatment of recurrent high-grade gliomas is still controversial. Evidence regarding an effect on overall survival in this context is ultimately inconclusive. At the Department of Radiation Oncology at Erlangen, Germany we treated a large cohort of patients with recurrent gliomas where bevacizumab use was determined exclusively by the health care provider's approval of reimbursement.
METHODS
61 patients (between 06/2008 and 01/2014) with recurrent high-grade gliomas had reimbursement requests for BEV sent to their health insurance. 37 patients out of 61 (60.7%) had their requests approved and therefore received bevacizumab (BEV-arm) as part of their treatment. The remaining 24 (39.3%) patients received standard therapy without bevacizumab (non-BEV-arm). Survival endpoints were defined with reference to the first BEV request to the health insurance provider.
RESULTS
Median overall survival (OS) for the whole cohort was 7.0 months. OS was significantly better for BEV vs. Non-BEV patients (median, 10.3 vs. 4.2 months, logrank p = 0.023). There was an increased BEV benefit in cases of higher-order recurrences (first order recurrence BEV vs. Non-BEV, 12.5 vs. 10.2 months, p = 0.578) (second or higher order of recurrence, 9.9 vs. 2.6 months, p = 0.010). On multivariate analysis for overall survival the prognostic impact of bevacizumab (HR = 0.43, p = 0.034) remained significant.
CONCLUSION
Our results suggest an influence of BEV on overall survival in a heavily pretreated patient population suffering from high-grade gliomas with BEV benefit being greatest in case of second or later recurrence.",2020,"On multivariate analysis for overall survival the prognostic impact of bevacizumab (HR = 0.43, p = 0.034) remained significant.

955,31801937,Effects of intranasal oxytocin administration on empathy and approach motivation in women with borderline personality disorder: a randomized controlled trial.,"Borderline personality disorder (BPD) is characterized by severe interpersonal dysfunction with problems in social cognition, empathy and social approach. Although the neuropeptide oxytocin is known to regulate complex social cognition and behavior in healthy individuals and clinical populations, there is still a lack of evidence for a potential beneficial effect of oxytocin administration on social cognition and social approach in BPD. Fifty-one women with BPD and 51 matched healthy controls were randomized to a double-blind, placebo-controlled, between-subject experimental trial. We administered a single dose of 24 IU oxytocin or placebo intranasally prior to a standardized task measuring affective and cognitive empathy and approach motivation. All participants were free of hormonal contraception and tested in the mid-luteal phase of their menstrual cycle. In the placebo condition, patients with BPD showed reduced cognitive and affective empathy, and less approach behavior motivation than healthy controls. Intranasal oxytocin significantly increased affective empathy and approach motivation in both BPD patients and healthy controls compared to placebo. More importantly, oxytocin administration led to similar scores between BPD and healthy controls.

956,31258108,Short-term impact of sucralose consumption on the metabolic response and gut microbiome of healthy adults.,"Sucralose is an artificial non-nutritive sweetener used in foods aimed to reduce sugar and energy intake. While thought to be inert, the impact of sucralose on metabolic control has shown to be the opposite. The gut microbiome has emerged as a factor shaping metabolic responses after sweetener consumption. We examined the short-term effect of sucralose consumption on glucose homeostasis and gut microbiome of healthy male volunteers. We performed a randomised, double-blind study in thirty-four subjects divided into two groups, one that was administered sucralose capsules (780 mg/d for 7 d; n 17) and a control group receiving placebo (n 17). Before and after the intervention, glycaemic and insulinaemic responses were assessed with a standard oral glucose load (75 g). Insulin resistance was determined using homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance and Matsuda indexes. The gut microbiome was evaluated before and after the intervention by 16S rRNA sequencing. During the study, body weight remained constant in both groups. Glycaemic control and insulin resistance were not affected during the 7-d period. At the phylum level, gut microbiome was not modified in any group. We classified subjects according to their change in insulinaemia after the intervention, to compare the microbiome of responders and non-responders. Independent of consuming sucralose or placebo, individuals with a higher insulinaemic response after the intervention had lower Bacteroidetes and higher Firmicutes abundances. In conclusion, consumption of high doses of sucralose for 7 d does not alter glycaemic control, insulin resistance, or gut microbiome in healthy individuals. However, it highlights the need to address individual responses to sucralose.",2019,"Independent of consuming sucralose or placebo, individuals with a higher insulinemic response after the intervention had lower Bacteroidetes and higher Firmicutes abundances.","['34 subjects divided into two groups', 'healthy individuals', 'Healthy Adults', 'healthy male volunteers']","['placebo', 'control group receiving placebo', 'sucralose consumption', 'Sucralose Consumption', 'sucralose capsules']","['glycemic and insulinemic responses', 'Insulin resistance', 'Glycemic control and insulin resistance', 'glucose homeostasis', 'glycemic control, insulin resistance, or gut microbiome', 'Metabolic Response and Gut Microbiome']","[{'cui': 'C0332849', 'cui_str': 'Divide'}, {'cui': 'C0439745', 'cui_str': 'Grouped (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0237401', 'cui_str': 'Individual (person)'}, {'cui': 'C0686750', 'cui_str': 'Well adult (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C0086582', 'cui_str': 'Males'}, {'cui': 'C0042960', 'cui_str': 'Volunteer Workers'}]","[{'cui': 'C1696465', 'cui_str': 'placebo'}, {'cui': 'C0009932', 'cui_str': 'Control Groups'}, {'cui': 'C0077046', 'cui_str': 'sucralose'}, {'cui': 'C0009830', 'cui_str': 'Consumption'}]","[{'cui': 'C0021655', 'cui_str': 'Insulin Resistance'}, {'cui': 'C2587213', 'cui_str': 'Controlled (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0337438', 'cui_str': 'Glucose measurement (procedure)'}, {'cui': 'C0019868', 'cui_str': 'Autoregulation'}, {'cui': 'C4018878', 'cui_str': 'Gastrointestinal Microbial Community'}]",34.0,0.0395037,"Independent of consuming sucralose or placebo, individuals with a higher insulinemic response after the intervention had lower Bacteroidetes and higher Firmicutes abundances.","[{'ForeName': 'Pamela', 'Initials': 'P', 'LastName': 'Thomson', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Chemical and Bioprocess Engineering, School of Engineering, Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile, Santiago, Chile.'}, {'ForeName': 'Rodrigo', 'Initials': 'R', 'LastName': 'Santibañez', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Chemical and Bioprocess Engineering, School of Engineering, Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile, Santiago, Chile.'}, {'ForeName': 'Carolina', 'Initials': 'C', 'LastName': 'Aguirre', 'Affiliation': 'Departamento Ciencias de la Salud, Carrera de Nutrición y Dietética, Facultad de Medicina, Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile, Santiago, Chile.'}, {'ForeName': 'Jose E', 'Initials': 'JE', 'LastName': 'Galgani', 'Affiliation': 'Departamento Ciencias de la Salud, Carrera de Nutrición y Dietética, Facultad de Medicina, Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile, Santiago, Chile.'}, {'ForeName': 'Daniel', 'Initials': 'D', 'LastName': 'Garrido', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Chemical and Bioprocess Engineering, School of Engineering, Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile, Santiago, Chile.'}]",The British journal of nutrition,['10.1017/S0007114519001570']
957,31255591,Evaluation of integrated interventions layered on mass drug administration for urogenital schistosomiasis elimination: a cluster-randomised trial.,"BACKGROUND
Elimination of schistosomiasis as a public health problem and interruption of transmission in selected areas are targets set by WHO for 2025. Our aim was to assess biannual mass drug administration (MDA) applied alone or with complementary snail control or behaviour change interventions for the reduction of Schistosoma haematobium prevalence and infection intensity in children from Zanzibar and to compare the effect between the clusters.
METHODS
In a 5-year repeated cross-sectional cluster-randomised trial, 90 shehias (small administrative regions; clusters) in Zanzibar eligible owing to available natural open freshwater bodies and public primary schools were randomly allocated (ratio 1:1:1) to receive one of three interventions: biannual MDA with praziquantel alone (arm 1) or in combination with snail control (arm 2), or behaviour change activities (arm 3). Neither participants nor field or laboratory personnel were blinded to the intervention arms. From 2012 to 2017, annually, a single urine sample was collected from approximately 100 children aged 9-12 years in the main public primary school of each shehia. The primary outcome was S haematobium infection prevalence and intensity in 9-12-year-old children after 5 years of follow-up. This study is completed and was registered with the ISRCTN, number 48837681.
FINDINGS
The trial was done from Nov 1, 2011, through to Dec 31, 2017 and recruitment took place from Nov 2, 2011, until May 17, 2017. At baseline we enrolled 8278 participants, of whom 2899 (35%) were randomly allocated to arm 1, 2741 (33%) to arm 2, and 2638 (32%) to arm 3. 120 (4·2%) of 2853 in arm 1, 209 (7·8%) of 2688 in arm 2, and 167 (6·4%) of 2613 in arm 3 had S haematobium infections at baseline. Heavy infections (≥50 eggs per 10 mL of urine) were found in 126 (1·6%) of 8073 children at baseline. At the 5-year endline survey, 46 (1·4%) of 3184 in arm 1, 56 (1·7%) of 3217 (odds ratio [OR] 1·2 [95% CI 0·6-2·7] vs arm 1) in arm 2, and 58 (1·9%) of 3080 (1·3 [0·6-2·9]) in arm 3 had S haematobium infections. Heavy infections were detected in 33 (0·3%) of 9462 children.
INTERPRETATION
Biannual MDA substantially reduced the S haematobium prevalence and infection intensity but was insufficient to interrupt transmission. Although snail control or behaviour change activities did not significantly boost the effect of MDA in our study, they might enhance interruption of transmission when tailored to focal endemicity and applied for a longer period. It is now necessary to focus on reducing prevalence in remaining hotspot areas and to introduce new methods of surveillance and public health response so that the important gains can be maintained and advanced.

Currently, remdesivir is available in phase III clinical trials, the compassionate use program, and eventually through the emergency use authorization. A randomized controlled trial of lopinavir/ritonavir demonstrated no apparent clinical or virologic benefit and drug-drug interactions and side effects further limit its utility. Antivirals to treat influenza (oseltamivir) have limited activity against SARS-CoV-2, but favipiravir and umifenovir, influenza antivirals available internationally, have distinct viral targets and require further investigation.

Broccoli sulforaphane is a promising new treatment due to the results of recent epidemiological, experimental and patient studies. Upon approval from the ethics committee and registration at ClinicalTrials.gov, 40 patients with palliative chemotherapy were placed into a placebo and treatment group in an unblinded fashion. Fifteen capsules with pulverized broccoli sprouts containing 90 mg/508 μmol sulforaphane and 180 mg/411 μmol glucoraphanin or methylcellulose were administered daily for up to 1 year. Twenty-nine patients were included in the treatment group and 11 patients were in the placebo group; these patients were followed for up to 1 year. The patient characteristics, overall survival and feasibility were assessed. Compared to those of the placebo group, the mean death rate was lower in the treatment group during the first 6 months after intake (day 30: 0%/18%, day 90: 0%/25%, and day 180: 25%/43%), and Kaplan-Meier analysis revealed a higher survival rate. There was a high drop-out rate (72% in the treatment group and 55% in the placebo group) after 1 year.

961,30368021,Sleep quality in cigarette smokers: Associations with smoking-related outcomes and exercise.,"INTRODUCTION
Compared to the general population, cigarette smokers report poorer sleep quality. Poor sleep quality in cigarette smokers is associated with greater nicotine dependence. While exercise is known to improve sleep quality in the general population, less is known about how exercise effects sleep in those who smoke. The goal of this study was to explore the relationships between exercise, sleep, and smoking in cigarette smokers.
METHODS
Data on sleep quality (Insomnia Severity Index (ISI) and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI)), smoking-related outcomes (e.g., cigarettes/day, Fagerstrom Test for Nicotine Dependence, Minnesota Nicotine and Withdrawal Scale, and Questionnaire of Smoking Urges) and exercise (Fitbit activity measures) were collected for 32 participants (63% female, mean age 30.3 ± 1.0 years) participating in a 12-week clinical research study. Analyses included simple linear regression models.
RESULTS
Overall, participants reported poor sleep quality at baseline (PSQI > 5). Poorer sleep quality at baseline was associated with increased withdrawal (β = 1.63 ± 0.53, p = 0.0043), craving (β = 0.51 ± 0.43, p = 0.2471), and total smoking urges (β = 1.10 ± 0.41, p = 0.0118). During follow-up (i.e., from baseline to week 12), a daily increase in exercise was associated with improved sleep quality over the same time period (PSQI: β = -0.82 ± 0.35, p = 0.0379).
CONCLUSION
Our data suggest that better sleep quality may be associated with lower levels of withdrawal, craving, and smoking urges. Further, exercise may be associated with better sleep quality in cigarette smokers. Future work should explore how increasing exercise and improving sleep quality could inform future smoking cessation interventions.",2019,"Poorer sleep quality at baseline was associated with increased withdrawal (β = 1.63 ± 0.53, p = 0.0043), craving (β = 0.51 ± 0.43, p = 0.2471), and total smoking urges (β = 1.10 ± 0.41, p = 0.0118).","['32 participants (63% female, mean age 30.3\u202f±\u202f1.0\u202fyears) participating in a 12-week clinical research study', 'cigarette smokers']",[],"['poor sleep quality', 'sleep quality (Insomnia Severity Index (ISI) and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI)), smoking-related outcomes (e.g., cigarettes/day, Fagerstrom Test for Nicotine Dependence, Minnesota Nicotine and Withdrawal Scale, and Questionnaire of Smoking Urges) and exercise (Fitbit activity measures', 'total smoking urges', 'Sleep quality', 'Poor sleep quality', 'Poorer sleep quality', 'sleep quality']","[{'cui': 'C0043210', 'cui_str': 'Woman'}, {'cui': 'C0444504', 'cui_str': 'Mean'}, {'cui': 'C0001779', 'cui_str': 'Age'}, {'cui': 'C0439234', 'cui_str': 'year'}, {'cui': 'C0620347', 'cui_str': 'compound A 12'}, {'cui': 'C0439230', 'cui_str': 'week'}, {'cui': 'C0008972', 'cui_str': 'Clinical Study'}, {'cui': 'C0337667', 'cui_str': 'Cigarette smoker'}]",[],"[{'cui': 'C0235162', 'cui_str': 'Difficulty sleeping'}, {'cui': 'C0332306', 'cui_str': 'Quality'}, {'cui': 'C0424563', 'cui_str': 'Quality of sleep'}, {'cui': 'C4520529', 'cui_str': 'Insomnia severity index'}, {'cui': 'C3697468', 'cui_str': 'Pittsburgh sleep quality index'}, {'cui': 'C0037366', 'cui_str': 'Smoke'}, {'cui': 'C0439849', 'cui_str': 'Relationships'}, {'cui': 'C1274040', 'cui_str': 'Result'}, {'cui': 'C0677453', 'cui_str': 'Cigarette'}, {'cui': 'C0332173', 'cui_str': 'Daily'}, {'cui': 'C0451156', 'cui_str': 'Fagerstrom test for nicotine dependence'}, {'cui': 'C0026183', 'cui_str': 'Minnesota'}, {'cui': 'C0028040', 'cui_str': 'Nicotine'}, {'cui': 'C0152128', 'cui_str': 'Drug withdrawal'}, {'cui': 'C0175659', 'cui_str': 'Scale'}, {'cui': 'C0034394', 'cui_str': 'Questionnaires'}, {'cui': 'C0037369', 'cui_str': 'Smoking'}, {'cui': 'C0015259', 'cui_str': 'Exercise'}, {'cui': 'C0026606', 'cui_str': 'Physical activity'}, {'cui': 'C0079809', 'cui_str': 'Measure'}, {'cui': 'C0439810', 'cui_str': 'Total'}]",,0.0155231,"Poorer sleep quality at baseline was associated with increased withdrawal (β = 1.63 ± 0.53, p = 0.0043), craving (β = 0.51 ± 0.43, p = 0.2471), and total smoking urges (β = 1.10 ± 0.41, p = 0.0118).","[{'ForeName': 'Himal', 'Initials': 'H', 'LastName': 'Purani', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Family Medicine & Community Health, Medical School, University of Minnesota, 717 Delaware Street SE, Suite 454, Minneapolis, MN 55414, United States.'}, {'ForeName': 'Samantha', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Friedrichsen', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Family Medicine & Community Health, Medical School, University of Minnesota, 717 Delaware Street SE, Suite 454, Minneapolis, MN 55414, United States.'}, {'ForeName': 'Alicia M', 'Initials': 'AM', 'LastName': 'Allen', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Family & Community Medicine, College of Medicine, University of Arizona, 3950 South Country Club Drive, Suite 330, Tucson, AZ 85716, United States.

962,32298728,Palivizumab Following Extremely Premature Birth Does Not Affect Pulmonary Outcomes in Adolescents.,"BACKGROUND
Prematurity is a risk factor for impaired lung function. We sought to assess the long-term effect of palivizumab immunization and extreme prematurity (<29 weeks gestation) on respiratory symptoms and pulmonary function at adolescence.
RESEARCH QUESTIONS
STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS: We examined survivors of extreme prematurity (<29 weeks gestation) at 13 to 18 years of age (study group). Study group babies who were born immediately before palivizumab immunization (nonpalivizumab group [NPG]) were compared with those babies who were born just after implementation (PG) and with a control group. For study group patients, lung function at adolescence was further compared longitudinally with that at primary school age.
RESULTS
Sixty-four adolescents aged 15.76 ± 1.52 years were included: 46 in the study group (17 PG and 29 NPG) and 18 in the control group. For the study group, wheezing episodes, inhaler use, and hospitalizations were uncommon. For the study group compared with the control group, FEV 1 percent predicted was 82.60% ± 13.54% vs 105.83% ± 13.12% (P < .001), and the lung clearance index was 7.67 ± 1.02 vs 7.46 ± 0.70 (P = .48), respectively. Study group adolescents with bronchopulmonary dysplasia had a higher lung clearance index than did adolescents with no bronchopulmonary dysplasia (7.94 ± 1.11 vs 7.20 ± 0.60; P = .002). PG and NPG adolescents were not significantly different. Comparing the study group in adolescence with primary school age, we found improvement in mean FEV 1 percent predicted bronchodilator response (0.37% ± 9.98% vs 5.67% ± 9.87%; P = .036) and mean provocative concentration causing 20% decline in FEV 1 (12.16 ± 4.71 mg/mL vs 4.14 ± 4.51 mg/mL, respectively; P < .001).
INTERPRETATION
Palivizumab did not provide any discernable long-term protective effect. Nevertheless, adolescent survivors of extreme prematurity showed good clinical and physiologic outcomes, except for mildly raised lung clearance index in patients with bronchopulmonary dysplasia. Airway hyperreactivity detected at primary school age, decreased by adolescence.",2020,"For the study group compared with the control group, FEV 1 percent predicted was 82.60% ± 13.54% vs 105.83% ± 13.12% (P < .001), and the lung clearance index was 7.67 ± 1.02 vs 7.46 ± 0.70","['Adolescents', 'patients with bronchopulmonary dysplasia', 'Sixty-four adolescents aged 15.76 ± 1.52 years were included: 46 in the study group (17 PG and 29 NPG) and 18 in the control group', 'Extremely Premature Birth', 'survivors of extreme prematurity (<29\xa0weeks gestation) at 13 to 18 years of age (study group']","['palivizumab immunization (nonpalivizumab group [NPG', 'palivizumab immunization and extreme prematurity (<29\xa0weeks gestation', 'Palivizumab']","['respiratory symptoms and pulmonary function at adolescence', 'lung clearance index', 'Airway hyperreactivity', 'bronchodilator response', 'mean provocative concentration', 'lung function at adolescence', 'wheezing episodes, inhaler use, and hospitalizations']","[{'cui': 'C0205653', 'cui_str': 'Adolescent'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patient'}, {'cui': 'C0006287', 'cui_str': 'Bronchopulmonary dysplasia of newborn'}, {'cui': 'C4517839', 'cui_str': '64'}, {'cui': 'C0001779', 'cui_str': 'Age'}, {'cui': 'C0439234', 'cui_str': 'year'}, {'cui': 'C0332257', 'cui_str': 'Including'}, {'cui': 'C0008972', 'cui_str': 'Clinical Study'}, {'cui': 'C0439745', 'cui_str': 'Grouped'}, {'cui': 'C0068260', 'cui_str': 'N-palmitoylgalactosylsphingosine'}, {'cui': 'C0009932', 'cui_str': 'Control Groups'}, {'cui': 'C0205403', 'cui_str': 'Extreme'}, {'cui': 'C0151526', 'cui_str': 'Premature pregnancy delivered'}, {'cui': 'C0206194', 'cui_str': 'Survivors'}, {'cui': 'C0021294', 'cui_str': 'Premature infant'}, {'cui': 'C0439230', 'cui_str': 'week'}, {'cui': 'C0032961', 'cui_str': 'Pregnancy'}]","[{'cui': 'C0672596', 'cui_str': 'palivizumab'}, {'cui': 'C0020971', 'cui_str': 'Immunization'}, {'cui': 'C0439745', 'cui_str': 'Grouped'}, {'cui': 'C0068260', 'cui_str': 'N-palmitoylgalactosylsphingosine'}, {'cui': 'C0205403', 'cui_str': 'Extreme'}, {'cui': 'C0021294', 'cui_str': 'Premature infant'}, {'cui': 'C0439230', 'cui_str': 'week'}, {'cui': 'C0032961', 'cui_str': 'Pregnancy'}]","[{'cui': 'C0037090', 'cui_str': 'Respiratory symptom'}, {'cui': 'C0231921', 'cui_str': 'Pulmonary function'}, {'cui': 'C0001578', 'cui_str': 'Adolescence'}, {'cui': 'C0231990', 'cui_str': 'Lung clearance index'}, {'cui': 'C0004096', 'cui_str': 'Asthma'}, {'cui': 'C0006280', 'cui_str': 'Bronchodilator agent'}, {'cui': 'C0444504', 'cui_str': 'Mean'}, {'cui': 'C0004268', 'cui_str': 'Attention'}, {'cui': 'C0024119', 'cui_str': 'Pulmonary function test'}, {'cui': 'C0043144', 'cui_str': 'Wheezing'}, {'cui': 'C0332189', 'cui_str': 'Episode of'}, {'cui': 'C0021461', 'cui_str': 'Inhaler'}, {'cui': 'C0042153', 'cui_str': 'utilization'}, {'cui': 'C0019993', 'cui_str': 'Inpatient care'}]",64.0,0.149305,"For the study group compared with the control group, FEV 1 percent predicted was 82.60% ± 13.54% vs 105.83% ± 13.12% (P < .001), and the lung clearance index was 7.67 ± 1.02 vs 7.46 ± 0.70","[{'ForeName': 'Nofar', 'Initials': 'N', 'LastName': 'Amitai', 'Affiliation': ""Pulmonary Institute, Schneider Children's Medical Center of Israel, Petah Tikva.""}, {'ForeName': 'Patrick', 'Initials': 'P', 'LastName': 'Stafler', 'Affiliation': ""Pulmonary Institute, Schneider Children's Medical Center of Israel, Petah Tikva;

963,31219671,"Comparison of the effect of a compact vs a conventional, long-term education program on metabolic control in children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes: A pilot, randomized clinical trial.","BACKGROUND
Effective education is considered essential for people with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) to adhere to a complex and long-term medical regimen and to delay or prevent the onset of diabetes-related complications.
OBJECTIVE
We compared the effect of a compact, cost-effective, education program (CEPT1) vs a long-term program on the metabolic control of children and adolescents with T1DM.
METHODS
Young people aged 8 to 21 years with T1DM were randomized to a short-term (experimental) or an extensive education program (control). The experimental group participated in three sessions of 90 minutes, with one session per week, containing five short videos. The control group attended an extended program delivered through 45-minute PowerPoint lectures, with one class every 3 months. The primary outcome was change in glycated hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) levels from baseline to endpoint (baseline, 3, 6, 9, and 12 months).
RESULTS
In total, 62 patients were randomized to the experimental (CEPT1) (n = 32) or control (n = 30) groups. Both groups showed comparable improvement in HbA1c levels at the end of 12 months (P = .183). In a per-protocol analysis, the mean HbA1c level reduction was -2.3% (-2.6, -2.0) in the experimental group and - 1.8% (-2.0, -1.5) in the control group (P = .008).
CONCLUSION
CEPT1 was comparable with an extensive education program in reducing HbA1c levels. In a per-protocol analysis, the CEPT1 was more effective than the control program in reducing HbA1c levels.

964,31798918,"First use of cenerimod, a selective S1P 1 receptor modulator, for the treatment of SLE: a double-blind, randomised, placebo-controlled, proof-of-concept study.","Objective
To investigate the pharmacodynamics, pharmacokinetics and safety of cenerimod-a potent, oral, selective sphingosine 1-phosphate 1 receptor modulator-in patients with SLE.
Methods
This multicentre, double-blind, placebo-controlled study was conducted in two parts. In part A, patients with SLE were randomised 1:1:1:1 to receive oral cenerimod 0.5, 1 or 2 mg, or placebo once daily for 12 weeks. Following an interim safety review of part A, additional patients were randomised 3:1 for part B and received cenerimod 4 mg or placebo once daily for 12 weeks. Endpoints included changes in total lymphocyte count, SLE Disease Activity Index-2000 (SLEDAI-2K) score (modified (mSLEDAI-2K) to exclude leucopenia), biomarker anti-double-stranded DNA (anti-dsDNA) antibodies, pharmacokinetic assessments and treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs).
Results
Part A included 49 patients (1:1:1:1 receiving cenerimod 0.5, 1 or 2 mg, or placebo) and part B included 18 patients (13 cenerimod; 5 placebo). Cenerimod caused a statistically significant dose-dependent reduction in total lymphocyte count from baseline to end of treatment (EOT). Compared with placebo at EOT, cenerimod 4 mg had an estimated treatment effect on change from baseline in mSLEDAI-2K score of -2.420 (p=0.0306), and on anti-dsDNA antibodies of -64.55 U/mL (p=0.0082), suggesting clinical and biological improvement in these exploratory efficacy analyses. Trough plasma concentrations were dose proportional and reached steady-state conditions after 4 weeks of once daily dosing. All groups reported similar, non-dose-related frequencies of TEAEs (cenerimod 0.5 mg: 41.7%; 1 mg: 41.7%; 2 mg: 46.2%; 4 mg: 38.5% and placebo: 58.8%). A small, dose-related, non-clinically relevant decrease in heart rate was only observed in the first 6 hours after initiation.

965,32409493,Exercise-Induced Increases in Insulin Sensitivity After Bariatric surgery are Mediated by Muscle Extracellular Matrix Remodeling.,"Exercise seems to enhance the beneficial effect of bariatric surgery (RYGB) on insulin resistance. We hypothesized that skeletal muscle extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling may underly these benefits. Women were randomized to either a combined aerobic and resistance exercise training program following RYGB or standard of care (RYGB). Insulin sensitivity was assessed by OGTT. Muscle biopsies were obtained at baseline, and 3 and 9 months after surgery and subjected to comprehensive phenotyping, transcriptome profiling, molecular pathway identification and validation in vitro Exercise training improved insulin sensitivity beyond surgery alone ( e.g , Matsuda index - RYGB: +123% vs. RYGB + ET: +325%; P ≤ 0.0001). ECM remodeling was reduced by surgery alone, with an additive benefit of surgery and exercise training ( e.g., collagen I - RYGB: -41% vs. RYGB + ET: -76%; P ≤ 0.0001). Exercise and RYGB had an additive effect on enhancing insulin sensitivity, but surgery alone did not resolve insulin resistance and ECM remodeling. We identified candidates modulated by exercise training that may become therapeutic targets for treating insulin resistance, in particular, the transforming growth factor-beta 1/SMAD 2/3 pathway and its antagonist follistatin. Exercise-induced increases in insulin sensitivity after bariatric surgery are at least partially mediated by muscle extracellular matrix remodeling.

966,32409561,"Hydroxychloroquine in patients with mainly mild to moderate coronavirus disease 2019: open label, randomised controlled trial.","OBJECTIVE
To assess the efficacy and safety of hydroxychloroquine plus standard of care compared with standard of care alone in adults with coronavirus disease 2019 (covid-19).
DESIGN
Multicentre, open label, randomised controlled trial.
SETTING
16 government designated covid-19 treatment centres in China, 11 to 29 February 2020.
PARTICIPANTS
150 patients admitted to hospital with laboratory confirmed covid-19 were included in the intention to treat analysis (75 patients assigned to hydroxychloroquine plus standard of care, 75 to standard of care alone).
INTERVENTIONS
Hydroxychloroquine administrated at a loading dose of 1200 mg daily for three days followed by a maintenance dose of 800 mg daily (total treatment duration: two or three weeks for patients with mild to moderate or severe disease, respectively).
MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE
Negative conversion of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 by 28 days, analysed according to the intention to treat principle. Adverse events were analysed in the safety population in which hydroxychloroquine recipients were participants who received at least one dose of hydroxychloroquine and hydroxychloroquine non-recipients were those managed with standard of care alone.
RESULTS
Of 150 patients, 148 had mild to moderate disease and two had severe disease. The mean duration from symptom onset to randomisation was 16.6 (SD 10.5; range 3-41) days. A total of 109 (73%) patients (56 standard of care; 53 standard of care plus hydroxychloroquine) had negative conversion well before 28 days, and the remaining 41 (27%) patients (19 standard of care; 22 standard of care plus hydroxychloroquine) were censored as they did not reach negative conversion of virus. The probability of negative conversion by 28 days in the standard of care plus hydroxychloroquine group was 85.4% (95% confidence interval 73.8% to 93.8%), similar to that in the standard of care group (81.3%, 71.2% to 89.6%). The difference between groups was 4.1% (95% confidence interval -10.3% to 18.5%). In the safety population, adverse events were recorded in 7/80 (9%) hydroxychloroquine non-recipients and in 21/70 (30%) hydroxychloroquine recipients. The most common adverse event in the hydroxychloroquine recipients was diarrhoea, reported in 7/70 (10%) patients. Two hydroxychloroquine recipients reported serious adverse events.
CONCLUSIONS
Administration of hydroxychloroquine did not result in a significantly higher probability of negative conversion than standard of care alone in patients admitted to hospital with mainly persistent mild to moderate covid-19. Adverse events were higher in hydroxychloroquine recipients than in non-recipients.

967,32116827,A Multicenter Phase II RCT to Compare the Effectiveness of EMDR Versus TAU in Patients With a First-Episode Psychosis and Psychological Trauma: A Protocol Design.,"Background
Patients with a first episode psychosis (FEP) who are admitted for the first time to a psychiatric hospital frequently have experienced prior psychological trauma. Additionally, 40-80% develop posttraumatic stress symptoms, which are summarized as a post-psychotic post-traumatic syndrome (PPS). Eye Movement Desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) therapy could be an effective psychotherapy to treat a PPS and prior psychological traumas in this population.
Objectives
To assess if EMDR therapy leads to: 1) a reduction of relapses after intervention, 2) an improvement of trauma-related, psychotic and affective symptoms, 3) an improvement of overall functioning, and 4) an improvement in quality of life.
Methods
This is a multicenter phase II rater-blinded randomized controlled trial in which 80 FEP patients with a history of psychological trauma will be randomly assigned to EMDR (n = 40) or to TAU (n = 40). Traumatic events will be measured by the Global Assessment of Posttraumatic Stress Questionnaire, the Cumulative Trauma Screening, the Impact of Event Scale-Revised, the Dissociative Experiences Scale, the Childhood Trauma Scale, the Holmes-Rahe Life Stress Inventory, and the Dissociative Experiences Questionnaire. Clinical symptomatology will be evaluated using the Suicide and Drug Consumption module of the International Neuropsychiatric Interview, Structured Clinical Interview for Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale, Young's Scale for Mania Evaluation, and Beck Depression II Questionnaire. Functionality will be assessed with the Global Assessment of Functioning and the Quality of Life with the Standardized Instrument developed by the EuroQol Group. The cognitive insight and adherence to the treatment will be assessed with the Beck Cognitive Insight Scale and the Drug Attitude Inventory. All variables will be measured at baseline, post-treatment and at 12-month follow-up.
Conclusion
This study will provide evidence of whether EMDR therapy is effective in reducing trauma and clinical symptoms, reducing relapses and in improving functionality and quality of life in patients with FEP and a history of trauma.

971,31244434,Co-ultraPEALut: Role in Preclinical and Clinical Delirium Manifestations.,"BACKGROUND
Delirium is a disorder in awareness, attention and cognition. Pathophysiologically it is a response to stress. Postoperative delirium (POD) is a usual complication in aged patients following hip fracture surgery. Neuroinflammation is an important factor linked with the progress of POD. Though there are no efficient cures for delirium the endocannabinoid system may have a role in neuropsychiatric disorders.
OBJECTIVE
Therefore, we examined the effects of co-ultramicronized PEALut (co-ultraPEALut) in the LPS murine model of delirium and in elderly hip fractured patients.
METHODS
In the preclinical study, mice were injected intraperitoneally (i.p.) with Escherichia coli LPS (10 mg/kg). Co-ultraPEALut (1 mg/kg o.s.) was administered 1h before LPS injection or 1h and 6h after LPS injection or 1h before LPS injection and 1h and 6h after LPS. In the clinical study, the effects of Glialia® (co-ultramicronized 700 mg PEA + 70 mg luteolin) administration was evaluated in elderly hip fractured patients with an interventional, randomized, single-blind, monocentric study.
RESULTS
Administration of co-ultraPEALut to LPS-challenged mice ameliorated cognitive dysfunctions and locomotor activity; moreover, it reduced inflammation and apoptosis, while stimulating antioxidant response and limiting the loss of neurotrophins. In the clinical study, the results obtained demonstrated that administration of Glialia® to these surgical patients prevented the onset of POD and attenuated symptom intensity and their duration.
CONCLUSION
Therefore, the results obtained enhanced the idea that co-ultraPEALut may be a potential treatment to control cognitive impairment and the inflammatory and oxidative processes associated with delirium.",2019,"RESULTS

973,31233079,Twenty-Four Months' Resistance and Endurance Training Improves Muscle Size and Physical Functions but Not Muscle Quality in Older Adults Requiring Long-Term Care.,"OBJECTIVES
To assess the effects of 24 months training on muscle quality, size, strength, and gait abilities in older adults who need long-term care.
DESIGN
Non-randomized controlled trial Setting: Kawai Rehabilitation Center and Kajinoki Medical Clinic.
PARTICIPANTS
Ten older participants who needed long-term care (age, 76.7 ± 5.6 years) were participated as training group (Tr-group) and 10 older men and women who did not require long-term care (age, 72.9 ± 6.6 years) comprised the control group (Cont-group).
INTERVENTION
Tr-group performed resistive and endurance exercises once or twice a week for 24 months.
MEASUREMENTS
Using ultrasound images, echo intensity (EI) and muscle thickness were measured in the rectus femoris and biceps femoris as an index of muscle quality and size. Physical performance was measured before and after the training; performance parameters included knee extension peak torque, 5-m normal and maximal walk test, sit-to-stand and timed up and go test.
RESULTS
After the training, there was no change in EI, while BF thickness was increased (pre; 1.82 ± 0.29 cm, 24 months; 2.14 ± 0.23 cm, p < 0.05) in Tr-group. Walk-related performances were improved after the training in Tr-group (i.e. 5-m walk test and timed up and go test). The percent change of knee extension peak torque explained the percent change of EI in the rectus femoris (regression coefficient = 1.24, R = 0.91, adjusted R2 = 0.82, p < 0.001).
CONCLUSIONS
Twenty-four months' training induced muscle hypertrophy and improved physical functions. Increased muscle quality in the rectus femoris could be a key to improved knee extension peak torque, with the potential to eventually reduce the need for long-term care in older individuals.",2019,Walk-related performances were improved after the training in Tr-group (i.e. 5-m walk test and timed up and go test).,"['Ten older participants who needed long-term care (age, 76.7 ± 5.6 years) were participated as training group (Tr-group) and 10 older men and women who did not require long-term care (age, 72.9 ± 6.6 years', 'Older Adults Requiring Long-Term Care', 'older adults who need long-term care']","['Endurance Training', 'Tr-group performed resistive and endurance exercises', 'control group (Cont-group']","['change in EI, while BF thickness', 'Muscle Size and Physical Functions', 'Physical performance', 'muscle hypertrophy and improved physical functions', 'knee extension peak torque', 'muscle quality', 'knee extension peak torque, 5-m normal and maximal walk test, sit-to-stand and timed up and go test', 'muscle quality, size, strength, and gait abilities', 'Using ultrasound images, echo intensity (EI) and muscle thickness', 'rectus femoris and biceps femoris as an index of muscle quality and size']","[{'cui': 'C0677546', 'cui_str': 'Old episode (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0027552', 'cui_str': 'Needs'}, {'cui': 'C0023977'}, {'cui': 'C0001792', 'cui_str': 'Elderly'}, {'cui': 'C4517794', 'cui_str': '5.6 (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0439234', 'cui_str': 'year (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0220931', 'cui_str': 'Functional training'}, {'cui': 'C0439745', 'cui_str': 'Grouped (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0086418', 'cui_str': 'Humans'}, {'cui': 'C0043210', 'cui_str': 'Girls'}, {'cui': 'C1299585', 'cui_str': 'Does not (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C4517823', 'cui_str': '6.6 (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0001675', 'cui_str': 'Adult'}]","[{'cui': 'C4704697', 'cui_str': 'Endurance Training'}, {'cui': 'C0439745', 'cui_str': 'Grouped (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0884358', 'cui_str': 'Performed'}, {'cui': 'C0419120', 'cui_str': 'Muscular endurance development exercise (regime/therapy)'}, {'cui': 'C0009932', 'cui_str': 'Control Groups'}]","[{'cui': 'C0443172', 'cui_str': 'State changes'}, {'cui': 'C0026845', 'cui_str': 'Muscle Tissue'}, {'cui': 'C0456389', 'cui_str': 'Size (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0205485', 'cui_str': 'Physical (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0031843', 'cui_str': 'function'}, {'cui': 'C2607857'}, {'cui': 'C0236033', 'cui_str': 'Muscle hypertrophy (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C0184511', 'cui_str': 'Improved (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C1963703', 'cui_str': 'Knee region structure (body structure)'}, {'cui': 'C0231448', 'cui_str': 'Extension (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0444505', 'cui_str': 'Peak (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0376590', 'cui_str': 'Torque'}, {'cui': 'C0332306', 'cui_str': 'With quality (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0205307', 'cui_str': 'Normal (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0205289', 'cui_str': 'Maximal (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C4277740', 'cui_str': 'Walk Test'}, {'cui': 'C2584297', 'cui_str': 'Seated Position'}, {'cui': 'C3888057', 'cui_str': 'Stand'}, {'cui': 'C1319201', 'cui_str': 'Timed up and go'}, {'cui': 'C0392366', 'cui_str': 'Tests (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0016928', 'cui_str': 'Gait'}, {'cui': 'C0085732', 'cui_str': 'Ability'}, {'cui': 'C0220934', 'cui_str': 'ultrasound'}, {'cui': 'C3542466', 'cui_str': 'Image (foundation metadata concept)'}, {'cui': 'C4049786', 'cui_str': 'Intensities'}, {'cui': 'C0584894', 'cui_str': 'Rectus Femoris'}, {'cui': 'C0600653', 'cui_str': 'Indexes'}]",10.0,0.0197952,Walk-related performances were improved after the training in Tr-group (i.e. 5-m walk test and timed up and go test).,"[{'ForeName': 'A', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Yoshiko', 'Affiliation': 'Akito Yoshiko, Ph.D. School of International Liberal Studies, Chukyo University, 101 Tokodachi, Kaizu, Toyota, Aichi 470-0393, Japan, Tel: +81 (565) 46-6952, E-mail: yoshiko@lets.chukyo-u.ac.jp.'}, {'ForeName': 'T', 'Initials': 'T', 'LastName': 'Kaji', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'H', 'Initials': 'H', 'LastName': 'Sugiyama', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'T', 'Initials': 'T', 'LastName': 'Koike', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Y', 'Initials': 'Y', 'LastName': 'Oshida', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'H', 'Initials': 'H', 'LastName': 'Akima', 'Affiliation': ''}]","The journal of nutrition, health & aging",['10.1007/s12603-019-1208-8']
974,30910531,"A multifaceted intervention to improve syphilis screening and treatment in pregnant women in Kinshasa, Democratic Republic of the Congo and in Lusaka, Zambia: a cluster randomised controlled trial.","BACKGROUND
Despite international recommendations, coverage of syphilis testing in pregnant women and treatment of those found seropositive remains limited in sub-Saharan Africa. We assessed whether combining the provision of supplies with a behavioural intervention was more effective than providing supplies only, to improve syphilis screening and treatment during antenatal care.
METHODS
In this 18-month, cluster randomised controlled trial, we randomly assigned (1:1) 26 urban antenatal care clinics in Kinshasa, Democratic Republic of the Congo, and Lusaka, Zambia, to receive a behavioural intervention (opinion leader selection, academic detailing visits, reminders, audits and feedback, and supportive supervision) plus supplies for syphilis testing and treatment (intervention group) or to receive supplies only (control group). The primary outcomes were proportion of pregnant women who had syphilis screening out of the total who attended the clinic; and the proportion of women who had treatment with benzathine benzylpenicillin out of those who tested positive for syphilis at their first antenatal care visit. This trial is registered at ClinicalTrials.gov, number NCT02353117.
FINDINGS
The 18-month study period was Feb 1, 2016, to July 14, 2017. 18 357 women were enrolled at the 13 intervention clinics and 17 679 women were enrolled at the 13 control clinics at their first antenatal care visit. Syphilis screening was done in a median of 99·9% (IQR 99·0-100·0) of women in the intervention clinics and 93·8% (85·0-98·9) in the control clinics (absolute difference 6·1% [95% CI 1·1-14·1]; p=0·00092). Syphilis treatment at the first visit was done in a median of 100% (IQR 99·7-100·0) of seropositive women in intervention clinics and 43·2% (2·6-83·2) of seropositive women in control clinics (absolute difference 56·8% [12·8-99·0]; p=0·0028).
INTERPRETATION
A behavioural intervention, together with the provision of supplies, can lead to more than 95% of women being screened and treated for syphilis. The sole provision of supplies is sufficient to reach such levels of screening coverage but is not sufficient to ensure high levels of treatment.

975,32409485,Randomized phase 2 study of adjunctive cenobamate in patients with uncontrolled focal seizures.,"OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the efficacy and safety of adjunctive cenobamate 200 mg/d in patients with uncontrolled focal (partial-onset) seizures despite treatment with 1 to 3 antiepileptic drugs.
METHODS
In this multicenter, double-blind, placebo-controlled study, adults 18 to 65 years of age with focal seizures were randomized 1:1 (cenobamate:placebo) after an 8-week baseline period. The 12-week double-blind treatment period consisted of a 6-week titration phase and a 6-week maintenance phase. The primary outcome was percent change in seizure frequency (from baseline) per 28 days during double-blind treatment.
RESULTS
Two hundred twenty-two patients were randomized; 113 received cenobamate and 109 received placebo; and 90.3% and 90.8% of patients, respectively, completed double-blind treatment. Median baseline seizure frequency was 6.5 in 28 days (range 0-237). Compared to placebo, cenobamate conferred a greater median percent seizure reduction (55.6% vs 21.5%; p < 0.0001) The responder rate (≥50% reduction in seizure frequency) was 50.4% for cenobamate and 22.2% for placebo ( p < 0.0001). Focal seizures with motor component, impaired awareness, and focal to bilateral tonic-clonic seizures were significantly reduced with cenobamate vs placebo. During maintenance, 28.3% of cenobamate-treated and 8.8% of placebo-treated patients were seizure-free. Treatment-emergent adverse events reported in >10% in either group (cenobamate vs placebo) were somnolence (22.1% vs 11.9%), dizziness (22.1% vs 16.5%), headache (12.4% vs 12.8%), nausea (11.5% vs 4.6%), and fatigue (10.6% vs 6.4%).
CONCLUSION
Adjunctive treatment with cenobamate 200 mg/d significantly improved seizure control in adults with uncontrolled focal seizures and was well tolerated.

976,31799981,Irisin and troponin I expression in dialysis patients submitted to remote ischemic preconditioning: a pilot study.,"BACKGROUND
Renal replacement therapy continues to be related to high hospitalization rates and poor quality of life. All-cause morbidity and mortality in renal replacement therapy in greater than 20% per year, being 44 times greater when diabetes is present, and over 10 times that of the general population. Regardless of treatment, the 5-year survival is 40%, surpassing many types of cancers. Irisin is a hormone that converts white adipose tissue into beige adipose tissue, aggregating positive effects like fat mass control, glucose tolerance, insulin resistance, prevention of muscle loss, and reduction in systemic inflammation.
OBJECTIVES
To determine the serum levels of troponin I in hemodialysis patients submitted to remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC) associated with irisin expression.
METHODS
This was a prospective, randomized, double-blind clinical trial with patients with chronic kidney disease submitted to hemodialysis for a 6-month period. Troponin I, IL-6, urea, TNF-α, and creatinine levels were determined from blood samples. The expressions of irisin, thioredoxin, Nf-kb, GPX4, selenoprotein and GADPH were also evaluated by RT-PCR.
RESULTS
Samples from 14 hypertensive patients were analyzed, 9 (64.3%) of whom were type 2 diabetics, aged 44-64 years, and 50% of each sex. The difference between pre- and post-intervention levels of troponin I was not significant. No differences were verified between the RIPC and control groups, except for IL-6, although a significant correlation was observed between irisin and troponin I.
CONCLUSION
Remote ischemic preconditioning did not modify irisin or troponin I expression, independent of the time of collection.",2020,"The expressions of irisin, thioredoxin, Nf-kb, GPX4, selenoprotein and GADPH were also evaluated by RT-PCR.

977,32068418,Mechanisms of change in female-specific and gender-neutral cognitive behavioral therapy for women with alcohol use disorder.,"OBJECTIVE
In a randomized trial for women with alcohol use disorders (AUD), the efficacy of Female-Specific Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (FS-CBT) was compared with Gender-Neutral CBT (GN-CBT; Epstein et al., 2018). The current study examined whether putative mechanisms of change differed between treatment conditions, using a novel statistical approach. Both treatments were hypothesized to work by increasing use of alcohol-related coping skills (coping) and confidence to abstain from drinking (confidence), but FS-CBT additionally targeted female-salient mechanisms: anxiety, depression, sociotropy (i.e., overinvestment in others' opinion of oneself), autonomy, and social networks supportive of abstinence.
METHOD
Ninety-nine women with AUD (55 in GN-CBT, 44 in FS-CBT) completed self-report assessments at baseline and 0, 6, and 12 months posttreatment. Multilevel vector autoregression estimation was used to analyze associations between putative mechanisms of change, and network models of those associations were generated using network analysis.
RESULTS
Across conditions, higher confidence and coping were directly associated with less drinking; autonomy was directly and indirectly associated with drinking. Additionally, network analysis indicated that although variation in depression was associated with change in other variables specifically for GN-CBT, sociotropy was associated with change specifically in FS-CBT.
CONCLUSIONS
Women receiving CBT-AUD changed their drinking through increased confidence to abstain and greater use of coping skills. Autonomy played a central role in behavior change across treatment conditions. Participants receiving treatment tailored to women also changed through decreases in sociotropy and increases in social support for abstinence. For women who received standard CBT, changes in depression were important to clinical improvement.

978,31241362,EFFICACY AND SAFETY OF IGLARLIXI IN HISPANICS AND NON-HISPANIC WHITES WITH TYPE 2 DIABETES.,"Objective: Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is more common in Hispanic than non-Hispanic white (NHW) populations worldwide, and ethnicity, among other factors, may affect response to therapy. The efficacy and safety of insulin glargine 100 units/mL (iGlar) and the fixed-ratio combination of iGlar and the glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonist lixisenatide (iGlarLixi) was assessed in Hispanic and NHW patients with T2D from 25 countries. Methods: In this post hoc analysis, data from two 30-week randomized controlled trials comparing iGlar and iGlarLixi in patients with T2D uncontrolled on basal insulin ± oral antidiabetes drugs (OADs; LixiLan-L: NCT02058160) or uncontrolled on metformin ± OADs (LixiLan-O: NCT02058147) were evaluated. Results: Of the 1,512 patients included across trials, 301 were Hispanic and 1,211 NHW. Compared with iGlar, iGlarLixi resulted in greater reductions in glycated hemoglobin (A1C) and 2-hour postprandial glucose and a higher proportion of patients at target A1C <7.0% (<53 mmol/mol), regardless of ethnicity. Among NHWs from the LixiLan-L trial, documented symptomatic hypoglycemia (plasma glucose ≤70 mg/dL) rates were higher with iGlar compared with iGlarLixi ( P = .06), whereas this trend was reversed among Hispanics ( P = .07). Nevertheless, in both trials, a greater proportion of patients taking iGlarLixi than iGlar reached the composite efficacy endpoints of target A1C without hypoglycemia and target A1C without weight gain, regardless of ethnicity. Conclusion: These results indicate that iGlarLixi is a viable therapeutic option for both Hispanic and NHW patients with T2D, as it is efficacious without a significant increase in hypoglycemia, irrespective of ethnicity.

Transplantation remains a male-dominated specialty. This study investigated gender and the perception of adverse clinical incidents in transplantation.

Prospective randomised web-based survey involving five clinical scenarios presenting two versions of episodes with errors or mistakes, with either a male or female as a randomly named protagonist (Set1 and Set2). To address unconscious bias, the study was described as examining actions following clinical adverse incidents in transplantation. Each scenario was followed by 2 closed questions: (1) clinical performance rating and (2) selection of action required. Reasoning was invited (open-text comments). Responses were analyzed using quantitative and qualitative methods.
RESULTS
One hundred ninety-one invitees responded; 134 completed questionnaires. There were no statistically significant differences (P > 0.05) in responses between sets for performance ratings or recommended actions. However, for ""first solo laparoscopic surgery"" scenario, there was some indication that ""No Action"" was more likely if surgeon was male (P = 0.056). Male responses rated female performance as significantly worse (P = 0.035) for the laboratory-based scenario. One hundred two participants provided open-text comments. Thematic analysis identified 7 themes. Acceptable levels of risk theme demonstrated engendered leadership beliefs, that is, when clinical judgment proved incorrect, males described as forceful but females as needing support. In cases where things went wrong, respondents were more likely to comment females should not have decided to proceed.
CONCLUSIONS
While gender may no longer be an overt issue in perceived performance of senior staff in transplantation, respondents' use of language and their choice of words display elements of unconscious (covert) engendered views.",2019,There were no statistically significant differences (P > 0.05) in responses between sets for performance ratings or recommended actions.,"['women in male-dominated professions', 'Prospective randomised web-based survey involving five clinical scenarios presenting two versions of episodes with errors or mistakes, with either a male or female as a randomly named protagonist (Set1 and Set2', 'One hundred ninety-one invitees responded; 134 completed questionnaires']",['Glass Slippers and Glass Cliffs'],[],"[{'cui': 'C0043210', 'cui_str': 'Girls'}, {'cui': 'C0086582', 'cui_str': 'Males'}, {'cui': 'C0028811', 'cui_str': 'Occupations'}, {'cui': 'C0332875', 'cui_str': 'Congenital webbing (morphologic abnormality)'}, {'cui': 'C0178499', 'cui_str': 'Base'}, {'cui': 'C0038951', 'cui_str': 'Surveys'}, {'cui': 'C1314939', 'cui_str': 'Involvement (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0205210', 'cui_str': 'Clinical (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0150312', 'cui_str': 'Present (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C2607870', 'cui_str': 'Version (morphologic abnormality)'}, {'cui': 'C0332189', 'cui_str': 'Episodes (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0086287', 'cui_str': 'Females'}, {'cui': 'C4522128', 'cui_str': 'Name (property)'}, {'cui': 'C1704407', 'cui_str': '100 (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C3816959', 'cui_str': 'Ninety'}, {'cui': 'C4517565', 'cui_str': 'One hundred and thirty-four'}, {'cui': 'C0205197', 'cui_str': 'Complete (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0034394', 'cui_str': 'Questionnaires'}]","[{'cui': 'C0017596', 'cui_str': 'Glass'}, {'cui': 'C0453958', 'cui_str': 'Slippers (physical object)'}, {'cui': 'C0442530', 'cui_str': 'Cliff (environment)'}]",[],102.0,0.064063,There were no statistically significant differences (P > 0.05) in responses between sets for performance ratings or recommended actions.,"[{'ForeName': 'Nithya', 'Initials': 'N', 'LastName': 'Krishnan', 'Affiliation': 'Renal Unit, University Hospitals Coventry & Warwickshire NHS Trust, Coventry, United Kingdom.'}, {'ForeName': 'Deborah', 'Initials': 'D', 'LastName': 'Biggerstaff', 'Affiliation': 'Mental Health and Wellbeing, Division of Health Sciences, Warwick Medical School, University of Warwick, Coventry, United Kingdom.'}, {'ForeName': 'Ala', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Szczepura', 'Affiliation': 'Enterprise & Innovation, University of Coventry, Coventry, United Kingdom.'}, {'ForeName': 'Monica', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Dolton', 'Affiliation': 'Transplantation Research Immunology Group, University of Oxford, Oxford, United Kingdom.'}, {'ForeName': 'Sondra', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Livingston', 'Affiliation': 'Director of Operations, The Transplantation Society, Montreal, QC, Canada.'}, {'ForeName': 'John', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Hattersley', 'Affiliation': 'Renal Unit, University Hospitals Coventry & Warwickshire NHS Trust, Coventry, United Kingdom.'}, {'ForeName': 'Josette', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Eris', 'Affiliation': 'Renal Transplantation, University of Sydney, Sydney, Australia.'}, {'ForeName': 'Nancy', 'Initials': 'N', 'LastName': 'Ascher', 'Affiliation': 'Transplantation, University College San Francisco, San Francisco, CA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Robert', 'Initials': 'R', 'LastName': 'Higgins', 'Affiliation': 'Renal Unit, University Hospitals Coventry & Warwickshire NHS Trust, Coventry, United Kingdom.'}, {'ForeName': 'Hillary', 'Initials': 'H', 'LastName': 'Braun', 'Affiliation': 'Transplantation, University College San Francisco, San Francisco, CA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Kathryn', 'Initials': 'K', 'LastName': 'Wood', 'Affiliation': 'Transplantation Research Immunology Group, University of Oxford, Oxford, United Kingdom.'}, {'ForeName': 'Neil', 'Initials': 'N', 'LastName': 'Raymond', 'Affiliation': 'Renal Unit, University Hospitals Coventry & Warwickshire NHS Trust, Coventry, United Kingdom.'}]",Transplantation,['10.1097/TP.0000000000002603']

In the phase III CheckMate 227 study, first-line nivolumab + ipilimumab significantly prolonged progression-free survival (co-primary end-point) versus chemotherapy in patients with advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and high tumour mutational burden (TMB; ≥10 mutations/megabase).
AIM
To evaluate patient-reported outcomes (PROs) in this population.
METHODS
Disease-related symptoms and general health status were assessed using the validated PRO questionnaires Lung Cancer Symptom Scale (LCSS) and EQ-5D, respectively. LCSS average symptom burden index (ASBI) and three-item global index (3-IGI) and EQ-5D visual analogue scale (VAS) and utility index (UI) scores and changes from baseline were analysed descriptively. Longitudinal changes were assessed by mixed-effect model repeated measures (MMRMs) and time to first deterioration/improvement analyses.
RESULTS
In the high TMB population, PRO questionnaire completion rates were ∼90% at baseline and >80% for most on-treatment assessments. During treatment, mean changes from baseline with nivolumab + ipilimumab showed early, clinically meaningful improvements in LCSS ASBI/3-IGI and EQ-5D VAS/UI; with chemotherapy, symptoms and health-related quality of life remained stable (LCSS ASBI/3-IGI, EQ-5D UI) or improved following induction (EQ-5D VAS). MMRM-assessed changes in symptom burden were improved with nivolumab + ipilimumab versus chemotherapy. Symptom deterioration by week 12 was lower with nivolumab + ipilimumab versus chemotherapy (22.3% versus 35.0%; absolute risk reduction: 12.7% [95% confidence interval 2.4-22.5]), irrespective of discontinuation. Time to first deterioration was delayed with nivolumab + ipilimumab versus chemotherapy across LCSS and EQ-5D summary measures.
CONCLUSION
First-line nivolumab + ipilimumab demonstrated early, sustained improvements in PROs versus chemotherapy in patients with advanced NSCLC and high TMB.

983,31228006,"Comparison between hemodynamic effects of propofol and thiopental during general anesthesia induction with remifentanil infusion: a double-blind, age-stratified, randomized study.","PURPOSE
Propofol is commonly used with remifentanil for induction of general anesthesia (GA); however, it often leads to hypotension. Intraoperative hypotension is associated with postoperative adverse events. By contrast, thiopental has less negative inotropic effects on hemodynamics compared to propofol, which could be suitable to prevent hypotension during GA induction. In the present age-stratified, randomized, assessor-blinded study, using the ClearSight ® system, we compared the hemodynamic effects of propofol and thiopental during GA induction under remifentanil infusion in non-cardiac surgery.
METHODS
Patients were divided into young (20-40 year), middle (41-70 year), and elderly (> 70 year) groups (n = 20, each group). General anesthesia was induced with remifentanil 0.3 μg/kg/min, followed by propofol (2.0, 1.5, and 1.2 mg/kg) or thiopental (5.0, 4.0, and 3.0 mg/kg) in the young, middle, and elderly groups, respectively. The primary outcome was the difference in the decrease in mean arterial blood pressure between patients receiving propofol and thiopental in each age group. The secondary outcomes included other hemodynamic parameters and minimal bispectral index values measured up to 10 min after tracheal intubation.
RESULTS
The decrease in mean arterial blood pressure was greater in patients receiving propofol than those receiving thiopental (- 45.4 vs - 26.6 mmHg and - 45.7 vs - 28.9 mmHg, P = 0.003 and 0.007, respectively), whereas no significant difference was observed in the young age group (P = 0.96).

To compare procedure times following same-day cervical preparation using misoprostol 400 mcg alone or misoprostol 400 mcg plus hygroscopic dilators for dilation and evacuation (D&E) before 20 weeks gestation and to compare side effects of buccal and vaginal misoprostol administration.
STUDY DESIGN
We randomized women undergoing D&E at 14 weeks 0 days-19 weeks 6 days gestation to receive (1) hygroscopic dilators or not and (2) buccal or vaginal misoprostol using a 2 × 2 factorial design. We assessed two primary outcomes: (1) total procedure time, defined as time to insert hygroscopic dilators plus D&E time, and (2) side effects of misoprostol 4-6 h after initiation of cervical preparation using a 5-point Likert scale assessing nausea, emesis, diarrhea, chills and cramps.
RESULTS
We randomized 163 women and 161 completed the study. We completed all procedures in one day. Mean total procedure time was 14.0 and 10.8 min. with and without hygroscopic dilators (difference 3.2 minutes, 95% CI 1.7, 4.6). Mean D&E procedure time was 0.7 (95% CI -0.8, 2.1) min longer without hygroscopic dilators. Initial cervical dilation was 15.6 and 11.7 mm with and without hygroscopic dilators (difference 3.9 mm, 95% CI 3.1, 4.8). Participants receiving buccal misoprostol reported less chills (1.9) than women receiving vaginal misoprostol (2.3), p = 0.04.
CONCLUSIONS
Hygroscopic dilators with misoprostol requires more time and increases cervical dilation without shortening D&E time when used for cervical preparation 4-6 h prior to D&E before 20 weeks. Women receiving vaginal misoprostol may have more chills compared to buccal misoprostol.

Adding hygroscopic dilators to misoprostol for same day D&E procedures at less than 20 weeks gestation increases total intervention time without reducing D&E time and is less favored by patients.

988,31226322,Tamoxifen for the prevention of unscheduled bleeding in new users of the levonorgestrel 52-mg intrauterine system: a randomized controlled trial.,"OBJECTIVE
To determine if a course of oral tamoxifen initiated following placement of a levonorgestrel 52-mg intrauterine system (IUS) reduces bleeding/spotting days over 30 days.
STUDY DESIGN
In this single-center, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial, we recruited women ages 15-45 years initiating the levonorgestrel 52-mg IUS. We randomized eligible women to tamoxifen 10 mg or placebo twice daily for 7 days starting 21 days after levonorgestrel 52-mg IUS insertion. Participants tracked bleeding/spotting days via daily electronic diaries for 30 days after starting drug treatment. We assessed participant satisfaction with their bleeding pattern and the IUS using a visual analog scale (0-100 mm). A sample size of 42 provided 80% power to detect a difference of 7 bleeding/spotting days in 30 days by two-sample t test, accounting for an expected 20% dropout rate.
RESULTS
From September 2016 to January 2018, 42 women enrolled. A total of 34 women provided complete bleeding/spotting data, and 30 women provided satisfaction data. Mean bleeding/spotting days over 30 days did not differ between tamoxifen (12.0±5.8 days) and placebo users (16.8±9.0 days), p=.08. We found no significant differences in mean satisfaction with bleeding profiles (51 mm tamoxifen vs. 59 mm placebo, p=.48) or with the IUS (83 mm vs. 75 mm, p=.36) between groups. Both groups reported similar rates of adverse events, with no serious adverse events reported.
CONCLUSION
A course of oral tamoxifen did not improve early breakthrough bleeding or satisfaction in new users of the levonorgestrel 52-mg IUS.
IMPLICATIONS
Although tamoxifen treatment caused a trend toward modest bleeding/spotting day reduction in new levonorgestrel 52-mg IUS users, bleeding satisfaction did not improve. Future studies of tamoxifen treatment for IUS-related bleeding issues may be best targeted toward users with ongoing bleeding irregularities or lower-dose IUS products which cause more bleeding irregularities.",2019,"A course of oral tamoxifen did not improve early breakthrough bleeding or satisfaction in new users of the levonorgestrel 52mg IUS.

990,31122797,Neurodevelopmental effects of ante-partum and post-partum antiretroviral exposure in HIV-exposed and uninfected children versus HIV-unexposed and uninfected children in Uganda and Malawi: a prospective cohort study.,"BACKGROUND
Antiretroviral medication during pregnancy and breastfeeding substantially decreases the risk of HIV transmission from mothers to infants, but its effects on the child's neurodevelopment are unknown. This study compared neurodevelopmental outcomes of ante-partum and post-partum antiretroviral exposure in HIV-exposed and uninfected children with HIV-unexposed and uninfected children at ages 12, 24, 48, and 60 months.
METHODS
For this study, a prospective cohort of HIV-exposed and uninfected children was identified from two research sites in the PROMISE-BF trial (at Blantyre, Malawi, and Kampala, Uganda), in which pregnant HIV-infected mothers were randomly assigned to triple antiretroviral prophylaxis (lopinavir-ritonavir plus either lamivudine and zidovudine or emtricitabine and tenofovir), versus zidovudine alone. Post partum, the mother-infant pairs were randomly assigned to maternal triple antiretroviral treatment or infant nevirapine during breastfeeding. HIV-unexposed and uninfected children matched for age, sex, and socioeconomic background were enrolled at vaccination and well-child clinics at the study sites. We included only children without a history of documented brain infection or injury or substantial malnutrition, and whose mothers were randomly assigned and maintained within their assigned ante-partum and post-partum phases throughout their treatment arm periods. Primary outcomes were the Mullen Scales of Early Learning (MSEL) cognitive composite score at age 12 months, 24 months, and 48 months; and the mental processing index for the Kaufman Assessment Battery for Children, second edition (KABC-II) global score at 48 months and 60 months. Repeated measures were analysed using a linear mixed-effects model controlling for data collection site.
FINDINGS
Between Aug 23, 2013, and Dec 17, 2014, we co-enrolled 861 children. For MSEL assessments, 738 were eligible for inclusion at age 12 months, 790 at age 24 months, and 692 at age 48 months. For KABC-II assessments, 685 were eligible for inclusion at age 48 months and 445 at age 60 months. There were no differences in MSEL cognitive composite scores according to exposure at age 12 and 24 months (p=0·19 and 0·24, respectively, for comparison of all groups). At 48 months, MSEL cognitive composite scores were worse for children of mothers who did not remain on triple antiretroviral treatment throughout both the ante-partum and post-partum treatment phases (adjusted means 80·64 [95% CI 77·74-83·54] and 81·34 [78·19-84·48], respectively), compared with those who did remain on triple treatment (adjusted mean 85·93, 95% CI 83·05-88·80; p=0·0486 for the comparison of all groups). The KABC-II composite scores (mental processing index) did not differ at 48 or 60 months according to exposure (p=0·81 and 0·89, respectively, for comparison of all groups). Scores for MSEL and KABC-II for children of mothers on triple antiretrovirals in both the ante-partum and post-partum treatment phases were similar to those for children in the HIV-unexposed and uninfected reference group at all timepoints.
INTERPRETATION
Maternal triple antiretroviral exposure during both the ante-partum and post-partum phases did not result in greater developmental risks for the mothers' HIV-exposed and uninfected children through age 60 months, compared with children who were HIV-unexposed and uninfected.

991,30846659,"Does the chromagen blue filter lens affect the reading speed, accuracy and contrast sensitivity.","PURPOSE
To determine the effects of ChromaGen blue filter lens in reading speed, accuracy and contrast sensitivity.
METHODS
A cross-over, randomised study was carried out on 40 individuals (11 males and 29 females) aged 21 to 30 years. The rate of reading and reading accuracy was calculated with and without ChromaGen blue filter lens in all subjects. Wilkins Rate of Reading Test was used to measure the rate of reading and reading accuracy. Contrast sensitivity was also evaluated by using with and without the ChromaGen blue filter lens.
RESULTS
The mean rate of reading with and without ChromaGen blue filter lens was 160.58±16.03 words per minute and 150.52±15.66 words per minute respectively, with significant difference of p<0.001. The mean of reading accuracy (words correctly read per minute) in subjects, with ChromaGen blue filter was 149.30±0.79 words and without using filter lens was 148.53±1.11 words and found to be significant (p<0.001). There was no significant difference in the contrast sensitivity between subjects with and without the ChromaGen blue filter lens (p=0.083).

992,32410260,The simplified follicular lymphoma PRIMA-prognostic index is useful in patients with first-line chemo-free rituximab-based therapy.,"Follicular lymphoma (FL) is a heterogeneous disease; therefore, reliable prognostic tools are needed to plan treatment strategies. The FL International Prognostic Index (FLIPI) was developed before the rituximab era, while the PRIMA-PI was built on rituximab chemotherapy. Our objective was to evaluate these two prognostic tools in a cohort of 291 patients with FL treated in two prospective randomised Nordic Lymphoma Group trials with rituximab ± interferon. All patients had symptomatic/progressive disease and were previously untreated. The PRIMA-PI was prognostic for both time to treatment failure (TTF) and overall survival (OS) (log-rank P = 0·003 and P < 0·001, respectively). The PRIMA-PI high-risk identified a small group of patients with a very short TTF and OS compared to the low-risk group, with a hazard ratio (HR) of 1·90 (95% confidence interval [CI] 1·30-2·78, P = 0·001) and HR of 3·19 (95% CI 1·75-5·83, P < 0·001), respectively. The FLIPI risk groups were prognostic only for OS (log-rank P = 0·018). The simplified PRIMA-PI was valid in our FL cohort with first-line rituximab-containing chemo-free therapy and shows an improved risk stratification compared to the FLIPI, especially in patients aged >60 years.

993,32409981,Intravenous Tramadol is Effective in the Management of Postoperative Pain Following Abdominoplasty: A Three-Arm Randomized Placebo- and Active-Controlled Trial.,"BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE
Oral tramadol, an atypical opioid approved in the United States (US) since 1995 and a Schedule IV controlled substance, has less abuse liability compared to Schedule II conventional opioids. Intravenous (IV) tramadol is not available in the US, but has the potential to fill a gap between non-opioid medications and conventional opioids for treatment of acute pain. This study evaluates IV tramadol in the management of postoperative pain compared to placebo and standard-of-care active control.
METHODS
A phase 3, multicenter, double-blind, three-arm, randomized, placebo- and active-controlled, multiple-dose, parallel-group study was conducted to evaluate the efficacy and safety of 50 mg IV tramadol versus placebo and 4 mg IV morphine over 48 h in patients with postoperative pain following abdominoplasty surgery.
RESULTS
IV tramadol was statistically superior (p < 0.05) to placebo and comparable to IV morphine for the primary and all key secondary efficacy outcomes and demonstrated numerically lower rates for the incidence of most common treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) compared to morphine. No unexpected findings were observed for TEAEs, laboratory tests, vital signs, or electrocardiograms (ECGs). Over 90% of patients completed the study.
CONCLUSION
The study demonstrated that IV tramadol 50 mg is highly effective in the management of postoperative pain following abdominoplasty. The consistency of effects between tramadol and morphine (as compared to placebo) for primary and key secondary endpoints validates the efficacy of tramadol observed. The study also provided direct evidence of improved tolerability of IV tramadol over a standard-of-care conventional Schedule II opioid. IV tramadol may become a useful option in patients where exposure to conventional opioids is not desired.",2020,"RESULTS

994,30846665,A cluster randomised controlled trial on effectiveness of carbon monoxide measurement feedback among college smoker : A study protocol.,"INTRODUCTION
For the last 30 years, tobacco smoking has continued to be the leading cause of premature deaths in Malaysia. Majority of the smokers in Malaysia are at the precontemplation and contemplation stages. Therefore, for the purpose of increasing smoking cessation among this group, the strategies that motivate them to quit smoking have to be reviewed.
OBJECTIVE
This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of carbon monoxide measurement feedback and the standard brief motivation adopted to encourage the smoker to quit.
METHODS
A single-blind, cluster randomised controlled trial was conducted at ten tertiary colleges in Selangor. The study recruited young adult smokers at the precontemplation and contemplation stages. The subjects in the control group received a standard brief motivational strategy. On the other hand, the intervention group received additional carbon monoxide measurement and a motivational feedback module. A follow up was conducted at the first, third and sixth month to measure changes in smoking cessation stage. Subsequently, the secondary outcomes of a mean number of cigarette consumption and quit smoking attempt were analysed. A total of 160 subjects were required to detect the expected difference of 17% in primary outcomes between the groups. This study utilised Generalised Estimating Equations (GEE) to handle the clustering effects.
CONCLUSION
Biomedical risk assessment feedback mechanism by using carbon monoxide is a promising aid to motivate the smoker to quit. This mechanism is a relatively easy, quick and non-invasive technique. Thus, it can be utilised as a reinforcement relating to the harmful effect of smoking. Besides, it can also increase the smokers' selfefficacy and decisional balance to adopt behavioural changes.",2019,"Therefore, for the purpose of increasing smoking cessation among this group, the strategies that motivate them to quit smoking have to be reviewed.

996,32409982,"A Phase 1, Randomised, Placebo-Controlled, Dose Escalation Study to Investigate the Safety, Tolerability and Pharmacokinetics of Cannabidiol in Fed Healthy Volunteers.","BACKGROUND
There is increasing interest in the use of purified cannabidiol (CBD) as a treatment for a wide range of conditions due to its reported anti-inflammatory, anxiolytic, antiemetic and anticonvulsant properties.
OBJECTIVE
The objective of this study was to assess the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of a single ascending dose of a new lipid-based oral formulation of CBD in healthy volunteers after a high-fat meal.
METHODS
A total of 24 eligible healthy volunteers (aged 18-48 years) were randomised to one of three sequential cohorts (each with six active and two placebo subjects). Cohort 1 received 5 mg/kg CBD or placebo, cohort 2 received 10 mg/kg CBD or placebo (cohort 2), and cohort 3 received 20 mg/kg CBD or placebo. Data relating to adverse events, vital signs, clinical laboratory assessments, 12-lead ECGs, physical examinations and concomitant medications were collected to assess safety and tolerability. Blood samples were collected up to 8 days postdose and plasma was analysed by liquid chromatography and mass spectrometry to assess the pharmacokinetics of the CBD formulation.
RESULTS
CBD was well tolerated in the healthy volunteers (mean age: 24.0 years) treated with a single oral dose of CBD. There were no safety concerns with increasing the dose and the safety profiles of the CBD-treated and placebo-treated subjects were similar. The most frequently reported treatment emergent adverse events (TEAEs) were headache (17%) and diarrhoea (8%). There were no reported serious adverse events (SAEs) and no clinical laboratory findings, vital signs, ECGs or physical examination findings that were reported as TEAEs or were of clinical significance during the study. After a high-fat meal, CBD was detected in plasma samples at 15 min postdose; the median time to maximum plasma concentration (T max ) was 4 h across all three CBD dose cohorts. The CBD plasma exposure [maximum observed plasma concentration (C max ) and the area under the concentration-time curve (AUC)] increased in a dose-proportional manner and declined to levels approaching the lower level of quantification by day 8. The terminal elimination half-life was approximately 70 h, suggesting that 2-3 weeks are needed to fully eliminate CBD.
CONCLUSIONS
This new CBD formulation demonstrated a favourable safety and tolerability profile in healthy volunteers that was consistent with the profiles reported for other purified CBD products. No severe or serious AEs were observed in this study and there were no safety concerns.

997,30855708,"[Efficacy and safety of transcranial magnetic stimulation in patients with non-fluent aphasia, following an ischaemic stroke. A controlled, randomised and double-blind clinical trial].","INTRODUCTION
Non-fluent aphasia is a frequent complication in post-ischemic stroke patients, with repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) being one of the possible treatment alternatives.
AIM
To assess the efficacy and safety of rTMS in patients with non-fluent after-ischemic stroke aphasia.
PATIENTS AND METHODS
Double blind, randomized controlled clinical trial in post-stroke patients who were assigned to receive 10 sessions (one daily) of active treatment or placebo of rTMS, without the addition of language therapy. The baseline characteristics were compared initially and the efficacy between the active group versus the placebo group at day 30 was evaluated through a Mann-Whitney U test.
RESULTS
82 patients were included: active group (n = 41) and placebo group (n = 41). At baseline, statistically significant differences were found between the groups in favor of the placebo in the domains of the Boston test of auditory compression (p = 0.024), denomination (p = 0.014) and praxis (p = 0.026), and also occurred on the 30th day in the naming domains (p = 0.037) and reading (p = 0.001). There were 39 adverse reactions: 23 (26.83%) in the active group vs 16 (21.96%) in the placebo group (p = 0.290); the majority corresponded to episodes of mild headache.

998,32410404,"Human Recombinant Apyrase Therapy Protects Against Myocardial Ischemia/Reperfusion Injury and Preserves Left Ventricular Systolic Function in Rats, as Evaluated by 7T Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance Imaging.","OBJECTIVE
The occurrence of intramyocardial hemorrhage (IMH) and microvascular obstruction (MVO) in myocardial infarction (MI), known as severe ischemia/reperfusion injury (IRI), has been associated with adverse remodeling. APT102, a soluble human recombinant ecto-nucleoside triphosphate diphosphohydrolase-1, can hydrolyze extracellular nucleotides to attenuate their prothrombotic and proinflammatory effects. The purpose of this study was to temporally evaluate the therapeutic effect of APT102 on IRI in rats and to elucidate the evolution of IRI in the acute stage using cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging (CMRI).
MATERIALS AND METHODS
Fifty-four rats with MI, induced by ligation of the origin of the left anterior descending coronary artery for 60 minutes, were randomly divided into the APT102 (n = 27) or control (n = 27) group. Intravenous infusion of APT102 (0.3 mg/kg) or placebo was administered 15 minutes before reperfusion, and then 24 hours, 48 hours, 72 hours, and on day 4 after reperfusion. CMRI was performed at 24 hours, 48 hours, 72 hours, and on day 5 post-reperfusion using a 7T system and the hearts were collected for histopathological examination. Cardiac function was quantified using cine imaging and IMH/edema using T2 mapping, and infarct/MVO using late gadolinium enhancement.
RESULTS
The extent of infarction ( p < 0.001), edema ( p < 0.001), IMH ( p = 0.013), and MVO ( p = 0.049) was less severe in the APT102 group than in the control group. IMH size at 48 hours was significantly greater than that at 24 hours, 72 hours, and 5 days after reperfusion (all p < 0.001). The left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) was significantly greater in the APT102 group than in the control group ( p = 0.006). There was a negative correlation between LVEF and IMH ( r = -0.294, p = 0.010) and a positive correlation between IMH and MVO ( r = 0.392, p < 0.001).
CONCLUSION
APT102 can significantly alleviate damage to the ischemic myocardium and microvasculature. IMH size peaked at 48 hours post reperfusion and IMH is a downstream consequence of MVO. IMH may be a potential therapeutic target to prevent adverse remodeling in MI.",2020,"IMH size at 48 hours was significantly greater than that at 24 hours, 72 hours, and 5 days after reperfusion (all p < 0.001).","['Fifty-four rats with MI, induced by ligation of the origin of the left anterior descending coronary artery for 60 minutes']","['IMH', 'APT102', 'Human Recombinant Apyrase Therapy', 'placebo']","['intramyocardial hemorrhage (IMH) and microvascular obstruction (MVO', 'Cardiac function', 'LVEF and IMH', 'edema', 'IMH', 'Left Ventricular Systolic Function', 'MVO', 'left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF', 'IMH size']","[{'cui': 'C4517807', 'cui_str': '54'}, {'cui': 'C0034693', 'cui_str': 'Rattus norvegicus'}, {'cui': 'C0027051', 'cui_str': 'Myocardial infarction'}, {'cui': 'C0205263', 'cui_str': 'Induced'}, {'cui': 'C0023690', 'cui_str': 'Ligation'}, {'cui': 'C0439659', 'cui_str': 'Origins'}, {'cui': 'C0226032', 'cui_str': 'Structure of anterior descending branch of left coronary artery'}, {'cui': 'C3853333', 'cui_str': 'Sixty minutes'}]","[{'cui': 'C0019080', 'cui_str': 'Hemorrhage'}, {'cui': 'C0086418', 'cui_str': 'Homo sapiens'}, {'cui': 'C0003652', 'cui_str': 'Apyrase'}, {'cui': 'C0013216', 'cui_str': 'Drug therapy'}, {'cui': 'C0032042', 'cui_str': 'Sham Treatment'}]","[{'cui': 'C0019080', 'cui_str': 'Hemorrhage'}, {'cui': 'C0443258', 'cui_str': 'Microvascular'}, {'cui': 'C0028778', 'cui_str': 'Obstruction'}, {'cui': 'C0232164', 'cui_str': 'Cardiac function'}, {'cui': 'C0428772', 'cui_str': 'Left ventricular ejection fraction'}, {'cui': 'C0013604', 'cui_str': 'Edema'}, {'cui': 'C0205091', 'cui_str': 'Left'}, {'cui': 'C0018827', 'cui_str': 'Cardiac ventricular structure'}, {'cui': 'C0039155', 'cui_str': 'Systole'}, {'cui': 'C0031843', 'cui_str': 'PH'}, {'cui': 'C0042508', 'cui_str': 'Ventricular Ejection Fraction'}, {'cui': 'C0456389', 'cui_str': 'Size'}]",54.0,0.0676234,"IMH size at 48 hours was significantly greater than that at 24 hours, 72 hours, and 5 days after reperfusion (all p < 0.001).","[{'ForeName': 'Ziqian', 'Initials': 'Z', 'LastName': 'Xu', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Radiology, West China Hospital, Sichuan University, Chengdu, China.'}, {'ForeName': 'Wei', 'Initials': 'W', 'LastName': 'Chen', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Radiology, The First Affiliated Hospital of Kunming Medical College, Kunming, China.'}, {'ForeName': 'Ruzhi', 'Initials': 'R', 'LastName': 'Zhang', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Radiology, West China Hospital, Sichuan University, Chengdu, China.'}, {'ForeName': 'Lei', 'Initials': 'L', 'LastName': 'Wang', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Radiology, West China Hospital, Sichuan University, Chengdu, China.'}, {'ForeName': 'Ridong', 'Initials': 'R', 'LastName': 'Chen', 'Affiliation': 'APT Therapeutics Inc., St Louis, MO, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Jie', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Zheng', 'Affiliation': 'Mallinckrodt Institute of Radiology, Washington University School of Medicine, St. Louis, MO, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Fabao', 'Initials': 'F', 'LastName': 'Gao', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Radiology, West China Hospital, Sichuan University, Chengdu, China. gaofabao@wchscu.cn.'}]",Korean journal of radiology,['10.3348/kjr.2019.0853']
999,31206613,N-Acetyl Cysteine Is Associated With Dopaminergic Improvement in Parkinson's Disease.,"This study assessed the biological and clinical effects in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) of N-acetyl-cysteine (NAC), the prodrug to l-cysteine, a precursor to the natural biological antioxidant glutathione. Forty-two patients with PD were randomized to either weekly intravenous infusions of NAC (50 mg/kg) plus oral doses (500 mg twice per day) for 3 months or standard of care only. Participants received prebrain and postbrain imaging with ioflupane (DaTscan) to measure dopamine transporter (DAT) binding.

1000,32410424,[Evaluation of multimodal analgesia in treatment of avascular necrosis of femoral head with free vascularized fibular grafting].,"Objective
To prospective study the effectiveness and safety of multimodal analgesia (MA) in treatment of avascular necrosis of the femoral head with free vascularized fibular grafting (FVFG).
Methods
Sixty patients with avascular necrosis of the femoral head, who were scheduled to unilateral primary FVFG between February 2016 and December 2016 and met the selection criteria, were included in the study. All patients were allocated to two groups according to the method of random number table: MA group ( n =30) and control group ( n =30). There was no significant difference in gender, age, body mass index, side, duration and stage of avascular necrosis of the femoral head, preoperative visual analogue scale (VAS) scores under quiescent and active states, and range of motion (ROM) of hip flexion and abduction before operation ( P >0.05). The patients in the MA group were treated with MA therapy, including oral administration of celecoxib before operation, local anesthetic wound infiltration during operation, and ice compression and oral administration of celecoxib after operation. The patients in control group were only treated with patient-controlled intravenous analgesia pump. The postoperative VAS scores under quiescent and active states, ROM of hip flexion and abduction, prescription of Tramadol and adverse reaction were recorded and compared.
Results
The operations were completed successfully in both groups without obvious complications and adverse reaction. The Tramadol was used in 4 cases (13.3%) of MA group and in 11 cases (36.7%) of control group, but no significant difference was found between the two groups ( χ 2 =4.356, P =0.072). The VAS scores under quiescent state at 6 and 24 hours postoperatively were significantly lower in MA group than in control group ( P <0.05), while VAS scores under active state at 48 hours postoperatively and on the day of discharge were significantly lower in MA group than in control group ( P <0.05). There was no significant difference in VAS score between two groups at other time points ( P >0.05). The ROM of hip flexion in MA group was better than that in control group at 1 day postoperatively and the day of discharge ( P <0.05), while no significant difference was found at 2 and 3 days postoperatively ( P >0.05). The ROM of hip abduction in MA group was superior to the control group at 1, 2, and 3 days postoperatively and the day of discharge ( P <0.05).
Conclusion
The MA can effectively relieve the pain following FVFG and facilitate early functional exercises of the hip. The usage of opioids was also relatively fewer for MA protocol.",2020,"The ROM of hip abduction in MA group was superior to the control group at 1, 2, and 3 days postoperatively and the day of discharge ( P <0.05).

1001,31208475,Sex differences in postprandial responses to different dairy products on lipoprotein subclasses: a randomised controlled cross-over trial.,"Men have earlier first-time event of CHD and higher postprandial TAG response compared with women. The aim of this exploratory sub-study was to investigate if intake of meals with the same amount of fat from different dairy products affects postprandial lipoprotein subclasses differently in healthy women and men. A total of thirty-three women and fourteen men were recruited to a randomised controlled cross-over study with four dairy meals consisting of butter, cheese, whipped cream or sour cream, corresponding to 45 g of fat (approximately 60 energy percent). Blood samples were taken at 0, 2, 4 and 6 h postprandially. Lipoprotein subclasses were measured using NMR and analysed using a linear mixed model. Sex had a significant impact on the response in M-VLDL (P=0·04), S-LDL (P=0·05), XL-HDL (P=0·009) and L-HDL (P=0·001) particle concentration (P), with women having an overall smaller increase in M-VLDL-P, a larger decrease in S-LDL-P and a larger increase in XL- and L-HDL-P compared with men, independent of meal. Men showed a decrease in XS-VLDL-P compared with women after intake of sour cream (P<0·01). In men only, XS-VLDL-P decreased after intake of sour cream compared with all other meals (v. butter: P=0·001; v. cheese: P=0·04; v. whipped cream: P=0·006).

1003,31195354,High prevalence of severe hypovitaminosis D in patients with advanced gastric cancer treated with first-line chemotherapy with or without anti-EGFR-directed monoclonal antibody (EXPAND trial) showing no prognostic impact.,"PURPOSE
The goal of our analysis was to study pretherapeutic circulating 25-OHD plasma levels in patients with previously untreated advanced gastric cancer treated in the randomised controlled phase III Erbitux (cetuximab) in combination with Xeloda (capecitabine) and cisplatin in advanced esophago-gastric cancer (EXPAND) trial (NCT00678535) and to explore whether low 25-OHD plasma levels are associated with worse prognosis and may compromise the clinical efficacy of cetuximab.
METHODS
Six hundred thirty patients with available pretherapeutic 25-OHD plasma levels and treated with chemotherapy based on capecitabine and cisplatin, or chemotherapy and cetuximab, were included. The Cox proportional hazard regression model was used to analyse the association between low 25-OHD and survival in both treatment arms.
RESULTS
Majority of study patients were found to have severe vitamin D deficiency. No prognostic impact of 25-OHD plasma levels could be found in our patient cohort, and there was no indication of an interference of 25-OHD plasma levels and the efficacy of treatment with the anti-epidermal growth factor receptor monoclonal antibody cetuximab.
CONCLUSIONS
Although majority of patients with advanced gastric cancer show hypovitaminosis D deficiency, there is no proof for a negative impact on survival or reduced treatment response.

1004,31201785,Proteomic Profiling to Identify Blood Biomarkers Predictive of Response to Azithromycin in Children and Adolescents With Cystic Fibrosis.,"BACKGROUND
Azithromycin reduces pulmonary exacerbation (PEx) risk in cystic fibrosis (CF), but not all individuals benefit. The goal of this study was to discover blood protein biomarkers predictive of clinical response to azithromycin treatment in children and adolescents with CF.
METHODS
Novel proteomic technologies were applied to examine 188 serum and plasma protein samples from 40 patients with CF who were randomized to receive azithromycin in the AZ0004 trial. Early changes in blood protein levels from day 0 to day 28 of treatment were examined in relation to changes in FEV 1 percent predicted and weight by days 28 and 168, and to predict PEx risk by day 168.
RESULTS
Early changes in the levels of 15 plasma proteins following 28 days of azithromycin significantly correlated with changes in FEV 1 percent predicted from day 0 to day 28 (Q value < 0.10), but this finding was not sustained to day 168. Early changes in serum calprotectin levels following 28 days of azithromycin were predictive of PEx risk by day 168 of treatment (area under the curve = 0.76; 95% CI, 0.57-0.95). Based on a calprotectin cutoff to maximize test sensitivity (88%) and specificity (68%), 40% of subjects who had a calprotectin reduction less than the cutoff experienced at least one PEx compared with only 8% of subjects with calprotectin reduction greater than the cutoff.
CONCLUSIONS
Early changes in blood protein biomarkers following azithromycin treatment were associated with short-term changes, but not longer term changes, in lung function. Early change in serum calprotectin level was predictive of response to azithromycin in terms of modifying PEx risk.",2019,"Early changes in serum calprotectin levels following 28 days of azithromycin were predictive of PEx risk by day 168 of treatment (area under the curve = 0.76; 95% CI, 0.57-0.95).","['40 patients with CF', 'Children and Adolescents With Cystic Fibrosis', 'cystic fibrosis (CF', 'children and adolescents with CF']","['Azithromycin', 'azithromycin']","['levels of 15 plasma proteins', 'PEx risk', 'serum calprotectin levels', 'FEV', 'pulmonary exacerbation (PEx) risk', 'blood protein biomarkers', 'serum calprotectin level', 'blood protein levels']","[{'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C0008059', 'cui_str': 'Child'}, {'cui': 'C0205653', 'cui_str': 'Adolescent'}, {'cui': 'C0010674', 'cui_str': 'Mucoviscidosis'}]","[{'cui': 'C0052796', 'cui_str': 'Azithromycin'}]","[{'cui': 'C0456079', 'cui_str': 'Level (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0032120', 'cui_str': 'Plasma Proteins'}, {'cui': 'C0035647', 'cui_str': 'Risk'}, {'cui': 'C0229671', 'cui_str': 'Serum'}, {'cui': 'C0950624', 'cui_str': 'Calgranulin'}, {'cui': 'C1306036', 'cui_str': 'Forced expiratory volume'}, {'cui': 'C4522268', 'cui_str': 'Pulmonary'}, {'cui': 'C0005832', 'cui_str': 'Blood Proteins'}, {'cui': 'C0005516', 'cui_str': 'Biological Markers'}]",40.0,0.0297186,"Early changes in serum calprotectin levels following 28 days of azithromycin were predictive of PEx risk by day 168 of treatment (area under the curve = 0.76; 95% CI, 0.57-0.95).","[{'ForeName': 'Kang', 'Initials': 'K', 'LastName': 'Dong', 'Affiliation': 'Centre for Heart Lung Innovation, Department of Medicine, University of British Columbia, Vancouver, BC, Canada.'}, {'ForeName': 'Amrit', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Singh', 'Affiliation': 'PROOF Centre of Excellence, Vancouver, BC, Canada.'}, {'ForeName': 'Raymond T', 'Initials': 'RT', 'LastName': 'Ng', 'Affiliation': 'PROOF Centre of Excellence, Vancouver, BC, Canada.'}, {'ForeName': 'Don D', 'Initials': 'DD', 'LastName': 'Sin', 'Affiliation': 'Centre for Heart Lung Innovation, Department of Medicine, University of British Columbia, Vancouver, BC, Canada; Division of Respiratory Medicine, Department of Medicine, University of British Columbia, Vancouver, BC, Canada.'}, {'ForeName': 'Scott J', 'Initials': 'SJ', 'LastName': 'Tebbutt', 'Affiliation': 'Centre for Heart Lung Innovation, Department of Medicine, University of British Columbia, Vancouver, BC, Canada; Division of Respiratory Medicine, Department of Medicine, University of British Columbia, Vancouver, BC, Canada; PROOF Centre of Excellence, Vancouver, BC, Canada.'}, {'ForeName': 'Felix', 'Initials': 'F', 'LastName': 'Ratjen', 'Affiliation': 'Division of Respiratory Medicine, Hospital for Sick Children, Toronto, ON, Canada.'}, {'ForeName': 'Bradley S', 'Initials': 'BS', 'LastName': 'Quon', 'Affiliation': 'Centre for Heart Lung Innovation, Department of Medicine, University of British Columbia, Vancouver, BC, Canada; Division of Respiratory Medicine, Department of Medicine, University of British Columbia, Vancouver, BC, Canada.

1005,31129386,"FOLFOX alone or combined with rilotumumab or panitumumab as first-line treatment for patients with advanced gastroesophageal adenocarcinoma (PRODIGE 17-ACCORD 20-MEGA): a randomised, open-label, three-arm phase II trial.","BACKGROUND
Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and hepatocyte growth factor (HGF)/mesenchymal-epithelial transition (MET) pathways, which promote tumour growth and proliferation, are often deregulated in advanced gastroesophageal adenocarcinomas. We assessed whether adding panitumumab (an EGFR inhibitor) or rilotumumab (a HGF inhibitor) to first-line fluoropyrimidine-based and platinum-based chemotherapy (modified oxaliplatin, leucovorin and fluorouracil [mFOLFOX6]) benefits to patients with advanced gastroesophageal adenocarcinoma.
PATIENTS AND METHODS
This phase II, open-label, randomised, three-arm study enrolled patients ≥18 years, with advanced gastroesophageal adenocarcinoma, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status 0-1 and no known HER2 overexpression. Patients were randomly assigned (1:1:1) mFOLFOX6 (oxaliplatin 85 mg/m 2 , leucovorin 400 mg/m 2 , 5-fluorouracil 400 mg/m 2 bolus then 2400 mg/m 2 over 46 h) alone or combined with panitumumab (6 mg/kg) or rilotumumab (10 mg/kg) every 2 weeks until limiting toxicity, patient's refusal or disease progression. The primary end-point was the 4-month progression-free survival (PFS) rate. Secondary end-points included overall survival (OS) and tolerance.
RESULTS
The study enrolled 162 patients in 29 French centres. The median follow-up was 23.6 months (interquartile range = 16.4-29.0). The 4-month PFS rate was 71% (95% confidence interval [CI] = 57-82) with chemotherapy alone, 57% (95% CI = 42-71) combined with panitumumab and 61% (95% CI = 47-74) combined with rilotumumab. Median OS was 13.1 months (95% CI = 8.7-16.9) with chemotherapy alone, 8.3 months (95% CI = 6.2-13.2) combined with panitumumab and 11.5 months (95% CI = 7.9-17.1) combined with rilotumumab. Adverse events grade ≥III occurred less frequently with chemotherapy alone (62%) than with panitumumab (83%) and rilotumumab (89%).
CONCLUSIONS
We found no benefit in adding panitumumab or rilotumumab to mFOLFOX6 first-line chemotherapy to treat advanced gastroesophageal adenocarcinoma patients.

1006,28231494,Marijuana and other substance use among male and female underage drinkers who drive after drinking and ride with those who drive after drinking.,"The study sought to describe the occurrence of adolescent driving after drinking (DD) and riding with a driver who had been drinking (RWDD) and associations with substance use for both males and females. As part of screening for a randomized controlled trial, we surveyed 16-20year olds (N=3418) recruited from an emergency department (ED) and analyzed data from those reporting past-year alcohol consumption (n=2150, 58% females). DD was reported by 22% of females and 28% of males and RWDD was reported by 39% of females and 38% of males, also in the past year. In regression models, risky alcohol use and past-year marijuana use were associated with increased odds of DD and RWDD for females and males. Marijuana use was a strong predictor, with odds increased by 2.3 and 1.7 times for DD among females and males respectively and 1.4 times for RWDD for females and males. Prescription drug misuse was also associated with RWDD for females and for both males' and females' reported DD. The findings highlight the alarming rate of DD and RWDD among both males and females and suggest ED-based injury prevention efforts consider such risky road behavior as well as consider their substance use.

1007,31706395,A pilot randomised controlled trial of a programme of psychosocial interventions (Resettle) for high risk personality disordered offenders.,"BACKGROUND
Offenders with personality disorder experience significant co-morbid mental health problems and present with an increased risk of offending. The evidence for the effectiveness of interventions for personality disordered offenders in the community is limited. This study was a pilot study to determine the feasibility of a randomised controlled trial (RCT) of an intervention known as Resettle for personality disordered offenders and to explore the possible effects of this intervention.
METHODS
Potential participants were recruited from referrals of male prisoners to Resettle. Those consenting underwent baseline assessments before being randomised to Resettle or treatment as usual. Officially recorded and self-report offending was assessed over two years following release from custody. Of the 110 eligible participants, 72 (65%) participated in the study of whom 38 were randomised to Resettle and 34 to treatment as usual. The two groups had a similar psychiatric and offending profile.
RESULTS
Analysis of officially recorded offences at two years found mixed results, but whether adopting an intent-to-treat approach or including only those who received the intervention there was no clear evidence of an effect of the intervention. A comparison of self-report offending found no effect of Resettle in an intent-to-treat analysis, but there was an effect when the analysis involved only those participating in the intervention.
CONCLUSIONS

1008,31780429,"Effects of massage on vital signs, pain and comfort levels in liver transplant patients.","OBJECTIVES
This study aimed to determine the effects of back massage on postoperative vital signs, pain, and comfort levels in liver transplant patients.
METHODS
A quasi-experimental model with a pretest, a posttest, and a control group was used. The population of the study comprised adult patients who had liver transplantation for the first time. The study sample comprised 84 adult patients who had liver transplantation: 42 experimental (study group) and 42 control group, selected by power analysis and the random sampling method from the population. The data were collected between May and September 2016 using the short-form McGill Pain Questionnaire (SF-MPQ) and the General Comfort Scale. In the study group, the researcher performed back massage twice per day in the morning and evening in the organ transplant service. No treatment was performed in the control group. To analyse the data, descriptive statistics, a chi-squared test, a t-test for dependant groups, and a t-test for independent groups were used.
RESULTS
According to morning and evening follow-ups after liver transplantation, the mean scores of pulse rate, respiration rate, blood pressure values, and pain intensity was lower, and the mean score of sPO 2 (oxygen saturation) levels and comfort levels was higher, with a statistical significance in the experimental group compared with the control group in all measurements before and after back massage (p < 0.001).

1009,31780640,Imaginal retraining decreases craving for high-calorie food in overweight and obese women: A randomized controlled trial.,"Overweight and obesity are epidemic conditions. Obesity is associated with somatic and psychological sequelae, including serious life-shortening disorders (e.g., diabetes). This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of a newly developed imaginal variant of approach bias modification (i.e., imaginal retraining) for the reduction of craving for high-calorie food. In a randomized controlled trial, 384 women with a body mass index above 25 were allocated to a wait-list control group or to two variants of imaginal retraining (ratio: 1; 0.5; 0.5). The two intervention groups were sent a manual on imaginal retraining. One group was explicitly encouraged and instructed to use electronic reminders (R ER ); the standard retraining group (R S ) was not encouraged to use electronic reminders. Assessments were 6 weeks apart and were carried out online. Craving for high-calorie food represented the primary outcome (based on the Visual Analog Scale, VAS). Secondary outcomes included the Food Cravings Questionnaire (FCQ-T-R). The study was registered as DRKS00017220. Women in the R ER group utilized the retraining technique more often than those in the R S condition, and utilization frequency in turn was associated with improvement on craving and eating behavior scales. Both intention-to-treat and per-protocol analyses showed a favorable effect of the R ER group, which achieved significance on the primary outcome, as well as on several other outcomes relative to controls at a small to medium effect size. For those participants who measured their weight before and after the assessment using a scale, weight loss in the R ER group was significantly greater compared to the control group. Both retraining groups (R ER : 39.4%; R S : 31.1%) reduced their subjective amount of eating relative to controls (24.2%). Approximately two-thirds of the sample (68.3%) performed the exercises at least once during the study period. The present results show that, when used regularly, imaginal retraining may reduce craving for high-calorie food in overweight and obese women. Of note, there was also evidence suggestive of weight reduction, although no diet or lifestyle change was recommended in the manual. Because a large subgroup neither read the manual nor performed the exercises, we recommend that future imaginal retraining be conveyed via short video clips.",2019,"Women in the R ER group utilized the retraining technique more often than those in the R S condition, and utilization frequency in turn was associated with improvement on craving and eating behavior scales.","['384 women with a body mass index above 25', 'overweight and obese women']","['Imaginal retraining', 'wait-list control group or to two variants of imaginal retraining', 'electronic reminders (R ER ); the standard retraining group (R S ) was not encouraged to use electronic reminders', 'manual on imaginal retraining']","['subjective amount of eating relative', 'craving and eating behavior scales', 'Food Cravings Questionnaire (FCQ-T-R', 'weight loss', 'Visual Analog Scale, VAS']","[{'cui': 'C0043210', 'cui_str': 'Girls'}, {'cui': 'C0005893', 'cui_str': 'Body mass index'}, {'cui': 'C0497406', 'cui_str': 'Overweight'}, {'cui': 'C0028754', 'cui_str': 'Obesity'}]","[{'cui': 'C0043010', 'cui_str': 'Waiting Lists'}, {'cui': 'C0009932', 'cui_str': 'Control Groups'}, {'cui': 'C0205419', 'cui_str': 'Variant (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C4281784', 'cui_str': 'Electronics'}, {'cui': 'C0038137', 'cui_str': 'standards'}, {'cui': 'C0439745', 'cui_str': 'Grouped (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C1947944', 'cui_str': 'Use'}, {'cui': 'C0175674', 'cui_str': 'Manual (qualifier value)'}]","[{'cui': 'C0439655', 'cui_str': 'Subjective observation'}, {'cui': 'C0013470', 'cui_str': 'Food Intake'}, {'cui': 'C0205345', 'cui_str': 'Relative (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0870371', 'cui_str': 'Craving'}, {'cui': 'C0015745', 'cui_str': 'Eating Behavior'}, {'cui': 'C0222045'}, {'cui': 'C0872380', 'cui_str': 'Food craving'}, {'cui': 'C0034394', 'cui_str': 'Questionnaires'}, {'cui': 'C1262477', 'cui_str': 'Weight Reduction'}, {'cui': 'C3536884', 'cui_str': 'Visual Analog Scale'}]",384.0,0.0639822,"Women in the R ER group utilized the retraining technique more often than those in the R S condition, and utilization frequency in turn was associated with improvement on craving and eating behavior scales.","[{'ForeName': 'Steffen', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Moritz', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Psychiatry and Psychotherapy, University Medical Center Hamburg-Eppendorf, Hamburg, Germany. moritz@uke.uni-hamburg.de.'}, {'ForeName': 'Anja S', 'Initials': 'AS', 'LastName': 'Göritz', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Occupational and Consumer Psychology, University of Freiburg, Freiburg, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Stella', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Schmotz', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Psychiatry and Psychotherapy, University Medical Center Hamburg-Eppendorf, Hamburg, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Roland', 'Initials': 'R', 'LastName': 'Weierstall-Pust', 'Affiliation': 'MSH Medical School Hamburg, University of Applied Sciences and Medical University, Hamburg, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Josefine', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Gehlenborg', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Psychiatry and Psychotherapy, University Medical Center Hamburg-Eppendorf, Hamburg, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Jürgen', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Gallinat', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Psychiatry and Psychotherapy, University Medical Center Hamburg-Eppendorf, Hamburg, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Simone', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Kühn', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Psychiatry and Psychotherapy, University Medical Center Hamburg-Eppendorf, Hamburg, Germany.'}]",Translational psychiatry,['10.1038/s41398-019-0655-7']
1010,31782377,Reproductive state and choline intake influence enrichment of plasma lysophosphatidylcholine-DHA: a post hoc analysis of a controlled feeding trial.,"The major facilitator superfamily domain 2a protein was identified recently as a lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC) symporter with high affinity for LPC species enriched with DHA (LPC-DHA). To test the hypothesis that reproductive state and choline intake influence plasma LPC-DHA, we performed a post hoc analysis of samples available through 10 weeks of a previously conducted feeding study, which provided two doses of choline (480 and 930 mg/d) to non-pregnant (n 21), third-trimester pregnant (n 26), and lactating (n 24) women; all participants consumed 200 mg of supplemental DHA and 22 % of their daily choline intake as 2H-labelled choline. The effects of reproductive state and choline intake on total LPC-DHA (expressed as a percentage of LPC) and plasma enrichments of labelled LPC and LPC-DHA were assessed using mixed and generalised linear models. Reproductive state interacted with time (P = 0·001) to influence total LPC-DHA, which significantly increased by week 10 in non-pregnant women, but not in pregnant or lactating women. Contrary to total LPC-DHA, patterns of labelled LPC-DHA enrichments were discordant between pregnant and lactating women (P < 0·05), suggestive of unique, reproductive state-specific mechanisms that result in reduced production and/or enhanced clearance of LPC-DHA during pregnancy and lactation. Regardless of the reproductive state, women consuming 930 v. 480 mg choline per d exhibited no change in total LPC-DHA but higher d3-LPC-DHA (P = 0·02), indicating that higher choline intakes favour the production of LPC-DHA from the phosphatidylethanolamine N-methyltransferase pathway of phosphatidylcholine biosynthesis. Our results warrant further investigation into the effect of reproductive state and dietary choline on LPC-DHA dynamics and its contribution to DHA status.",2019,"Reproductive state interacted with time (P = 0·001) to influence total LPC-DHA, which significantly increased by week 10 in non-pregnant women, but not in pregnant or lactating women.",[],"['reproductive state and choline intake', 'choline', 'supplemental DHA and 22\xa0% of their daily choline intake as 2H-labelled choline']","['total LPC-DHA (expressed as a percentage of LPC) and plasma enrichments of labelled LPC and LPC-DHA', 'total LPC-DHA']",[],"[{'cui': 'C1301808', 'cui_str': 'State'}, {'cui': 'C0008405', 'cui_str': 'Choline'}]","[{'cui': 'C0439810', 'cui_str': 'Total (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0032105', 'cui_str': 'Blood Plasma'}]",,0.065026,"Reproductive state interacted with time (P = 0·001) to influence total LPC-DHA, which significantly increased by week 10 in non-pregnant women, but not in pregnant or lactating women.","[{'ForeName': 'Kevin C', 'Initials': 'KC', 'LastName': 'Klatt', 'Affiliation': 'Division of Nutritional Sciences, Cornell University, Ithaca, NY 14853, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Melissa Q', 'Initials': 'MQ', 'LastName': 'McDougall', 'Affiliation': 'Division of Nutritional Sciences, Cornell University, Ithaca, NY 14853, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Olga V', 'Initials': 'OV', 'LastName': 'Malysheva', 'Affiliation': 'Division of Nutritional Sciences, Cornell University, Ithaca, NY 14853, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'J Thomas', 'Initials': 'JT', 'LastName': 'Brenna', 'Affiliation': 'Division of Nutritional Sciences, Cornell University, Ithaca, NY 14853, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Mark S', 'Initials': 'MS', 'LastName': 'Roberson', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Biomedical Sciences, College of Veterinary Medicine, Cornell University, Ithaca, NY 14853, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Marie A', 'Initials': 'MA', 'LastName': 'Caudill', 'Affiliation': 'Division of Nutritional Sciences, Cornell University, Ithaca, NY 14853, USA.'}]",The British journal of nutrition,['10.1017/S0007114519002009']
1011,32410425,[Effect of different use time of intermittent pneumatic compression on the incidence of deep vein thrombosis of lower extremities after arthroplasty].,"Objective
To investigate the effect of different use time of intermittent pneumatic compression (IPC) on the incidence of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) of lower extremities after arthroplasty.
Methods
Between October 2018 and February 2019, 94 patients who planned to undergo unilateral total hip or knee arthroplsty and met the selection criteria were randomly divided into a control group (47 cases) and a trial group (47 cases). There was no significant difference in gender, age, surgical site, and surgical reason between the two groups ( P >0.05). After returning to the ward, all patients were treated with IPC. And the IPC was used until 9:00 pm on the day after operation in the trial group and until 8:00 am the next day after operation in the control group. The levels of hemoglobin, platelet count, D-dimer, hospital stay, treatment costs, patients' satisfaction with IPC, the parameters of thromboelastrography [kinetics (K value), freezing angle (α angle), reaction time (R value), maximum amplitude (MA value)], visual analogue scale (VAS) score, circumference difference of calf before and after operation, Pittsburgh sleep assessment score, and the incidence of DVT of lower limbs were recorded and compared between the two groups.
Results
The K value and D-dimer before operation were significant different between the two groups ( P <0.05). There was no significant difference in pre- and post-operative hemoglobin, platelet count, and the other parameters of thromboelastography between the two groups ( P >0.05). There was no significant difference in pre- and post-operative VAS scores and post-operative circumference difference of calf between the two groups ( P >0.05). The sleep assessment score of the trial group at 1 day after operation was significant lower than that of the control group ( t =2.107, P =0.038). There was no significant difference in the hospital stay and treatment costs between the two groups ( P >0.05). There was 1 case (2.1%) of DVT, 3 cases (6.4%) of intermuscular venous thrombosis, and 1 case (2.1%) of infection in the trial group, and 2 cases (4.3%), 4 cases (8.5%), and 0 (0) in the control group. The differences were not significant ( P >0.05). After the completion of postoperative IPC treatment, the satisfaction rates of using IPC were 89.4%(42/47) in the trial group and 70.2% (33/47) in the control group, and the difference was not significant ( χ 2 =0.097, P =0.104).

1012,31779056,Evaluation of Waning Immunity at 6 Months after Both Trivalent and Quadrivalent Influenza Vaccination in Korean Children Aged 6-35 Months.,"BACKGROUND
The titer of influenza vaccine-induced antibodies declines over time, and younger children have lower immunogenicity and shorter duration of immunity. This study aimed to compare persistence of antibody at 6 months after influenza vaccination according to influenza virus strains, vaccine type, antigen dose, and primed status in children aged 6 to 35 months.
METHODS
A total 124 healthy children aged 6 to 35 months were enrolled from September to December 2016 at 10 hospitals in Korea and randomly assigned to either a full dose of quadrivalent influenza vaccine or a half dose of trivalent influenza vaccine with Victoria B strain group. Hemagglutination inhibition antibody titers (that measure the seroprotection rates) were assessed for the recommended influenza strains at 6 months post vaccination.
RESULTS
The seroprotection rates at 6 months for strains A (H1N1), A (H3N2), B/Yamagata, and B/Victoria were 88.7%, 97.4%, 36.6%, and 27.6%, respectively. The seroprotection rates for A (H1N1), A (H3N2) and B (Victoria) were 91.4%, 98.7% and 27.5% in a full dose of quadrivalent vaccine vs. 83.7%, 94.6% and 27.9% in a half dose trivalent vaccine, respectively. The seroprotection rate for the B (Yamagata) strain was 23.8% in the quadrivalent group and 14.0% in the trivalent group.
CONCLUSION

1013,31781732,Is the Effect of a High-Intensity Functional Exercise Program on Functional Balance Influenced by Applicability and Motivation among Older People with Dementia in Nursing Homes?,"BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES
Exercise can be an important way of maintaining balance function in people with dementia, but further investigation is needed to determine the optimal way of exercising. The objective was to evaluate whether exercise applicability (i.e., attendance, exercise intensity, and adverse events) and motivation were associated with the effect on functional balance of a high-intensity functional exercise program for older people with dementia in nursing homes.
DESIGN, SETTING AND PARTICIPANTS
Exercise intervention participants (n = 81; 60 women, 21 men) from a randomized controlled trial (UMDEX) were included. Their mean age was 84 and mean Mini-Mental State Examination score was 15.
INTERVENTION
Groups of 3-8 participants participated in the High-Intensity Functional Exercise (HIFE) Program, with 5 sessions per 2-week period, for 4 months (total, 40 sessions).
MEASUREMENTS
Outcome was the Berg Balance Scale (BBS), assessed at baseline and follow up, and the score difference, dichotomized to classify participants into two groups: responders (≥5-point increase) and non-responders (<5-point increase). Target variables were measures of applicability and motivation. Associations between each target variable and the outcome were analyzed using multivariable logistic regression. Baseline characteristics and new medical conditions developing during the intervention period were compared between responders and non-responders and included in the analyses when p < 0.10.
RESULTS
The BBS score was 28.6 ± 14.3 at baseline and 31.2 ± 15.3 at follow up, with the difference between follow-up and baseline scores ranging from -35 to 24. Twenty-nine (35.8%) participants were responders. The multivariable models showed no significant association between responders vs. non-responders and any target variable.
CONCLUSION
Participation in a 4-month high-intensity functional exercise program can improve balance in many individuals with dementia in nursing homes, despite the progressiveness of dementia disorders and several co-existing medical conditions. Predicting balance exercise response based on applicability and motivation seem not to be possible, which lends no support for excluding this group from functional exercise, even when exercise intensity or motivation is not high.",2019,"The BBS score was 28.6 ± 14.3 at baseline and 31.2 ± 15.3 at follow up, with the difference between follow-up and baseline scores ranging from -35 to 24.","['older people with dementia in nursing homes', 'people with dementia', 'Exercise intervention participants (n = 81; 60 women, 21 men', 'Older People with Dementia in Nursing Homes']","['High-Intensity Functional Exercise (HIFE', 'High-Intensity Functional Exercise Program', 'high-intensity functional exercise program', 'intensity functional exercise program']","['Berg Balance Scale (BBS', 'BBS score', 'mean Mini-Mental State Examination score', 'exercise applicability (i.e., attendance, exercise intensity, and adverse events) and motivation']","[{'cui': 'C0677546', 'cui_str': 'Old episode (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0497327', 'cui_str': 'Amentia'}, {'cui': 'C0028688', 'cui_str': 'Nursing Homes'}, {'cui': 'C0015259', 'cui_str': 'Physical Activity'}, {'cui': 'C0043210', 'cui_str': 'Girls'}, {'cui': 'C0086418', 'cui_str': 'Humans'}]","[{'cui': 'C4081854', 'cui_str': 'High intensity'}, {'cui': 'C0454284', 'cui_str': 'Functional exercises (regime/therapy)'}, {'cui': 'C2728259', 'cui_str': 'Program'}, {'cui': 'C4049786', 'cui_str': 'Intensities'}]","[{'cui': 'C1998325', 'cui_str': 'Berg balance scale'}, {'cui': 'C0449820', 'cui_str': 'Scores (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0444504', 'cui_str': 'Mean (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C2960235', 'cui_str': 'Mini-mental state examination score (observable entity)'}, {'cui': 'C0015259', 'cui_str': 'Physical Activity'}, {'cui': 'C4049786', 'cui_str': 'Intensities'}, {'cui': 'C0877248', 'cui_str': 'Adverse event'}, {'cui': 'C0026605', 'cui_str': 'Motivation'}]",60.0,0.0709431,"The BBS score was 28.6 ± 14.3 at baseline and 31.2 ± 15.3 at follow up, with the difference between follow-up and baseline scores ranging from -35 to 24.","[{'ForeName': 'A', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Sondell', 'Affiliation': 'Anna Sondell, Department of Community Medicine and Rehabilitation, Physiotherapy, Umeå University, SE-90187 Umeå, Sweden, Phone: +46907865289, Fax: +469058093, Email: anna.sondell@umu.se.'}, {'ForeName': 'H', 'Initials': 'H', 'LastName': 'Littbrand', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'H', 'Initials': 'H', 'LastName': 'Holmberg', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'N', 'Initials': 'N', 'LastName': 'Lindelöf', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'E', 'Initials': 'E', 'LastName': 'Rosendahl', 'Affiliation': ''}]","The journal of nutrition, health & aging",['10.1007/s12603-019-1269-8']
1014,31770139,"Efficacy and Safety of Vonoprazan in Patients With Nonerosive Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease: A Randomized, Placebo-Controlled, Phase 3 Study.","OBJECTIVES
To assess the efficacy and safety of vonoprazan on heartburn symptoms in patients with nonerosive reflux disease (NERD) (ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT02954848).
METHODS
This phase 3, double-blind, placebo-controlled study included Japanese patients aged 20 years and older with grade N/M NERD and recurrent heartburn. Patients received placebo (n = 245) or vonoprazan 10 mg (n = 238) for 4 weeks. The primary efficacy outcome was frequency of heartburn experienced by patients during the treatment period (proportion of days without heartburn). Other outcomes included cumulative improvement rates of heartburn, proportion of patients with complete heartburn resolution in the fourth week of treatment, and safety.
RESULTS
Compared with placebo, the proportion of days without heartburn was not significantly higher in the vonoprazan group in the full analysis (primary end point, 72.55% vs 61.50%, vonoprazan vs placebo, P = 0.0643) but was significantly higher in the per-protocol-set sensitivity analysis (P = 0.0341). Early onset of response and significantly greater cumulative improvement rates of heartburn were observed in the vonoprazan group (P = 0.0003). In a post hoc analysis, a greater proportion of patients with complete heartburn resolution in the fourth week of treatment were reported in the vonoprazan group (P = 0.0023). Incidence of treatment-emergent adverse events was similar between treatment groups (23.5% vs 23.3%); most treatment-emergent adverse events were mild in severity.
DISCUSSION
Although vonoprazan 10 mg was not superior to placebo with respect to proportion of days without heartburn in Japanese patients with NERD, vonoprazan had a significantly higher cumulative rate of heartburn resolution and was well tolerated.",2019,"Incidence of treatment-emergent adverse events was similar between treatment groups (23.5% vs 23.3%); most treatment-emergent adverse events were mild in severity.

1015,31774376,Influence of Foot-Landing Positions at Initial Contact on Knee Flexion Angles for Single-Leg Drop Landings.,"Purpose : Small knee flexion angles are associated with increased non-contact anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury risks. The purpose of this study was to provide insights into how ankle plantar flexion angles influenced knee flexion angles at initial contact during single-leg drop landings. Method : Thirteen male recreational basketball players performed single-leg drop landings from a 30-cm high platform using three randomized foot-landing positions (natural, fore-foot, and flat-foot). A motion capture system and a force plate were used to measure lower extremity kinematics and vertical ground reaction force (VGRF). A one-way repeated measures Analysis of Variance and the Friedman test were conducted (α = .05). Results : Foot-landing position had a significant effect on knee flexion angles at initial contact ( p < .001). As compared to flat-foot landings (18° ( SD 5°), significantly smaller knee flexion angles were found for natural (mean 12° ( SD 5°), p = .004) and fore-foot landings (mean 12° ( SD 3°), p = .001). There was however significantly smaller knee flexion range of motion in flat-foot landings (mean 42° ( SD 3°), as compared to natural landings (mean 48° ( SD 4°) ( p < .001). Flat-foot landings also resulted in a 1.4 times higher maximum VGRF than fore-foot landings ( p < .001) and 1.3 times higher than natural landings ( p = .005). Conclusions : Natural and fore-foot landings are better for force absorption but are associated with smaller knee flexion angles at initial contact.

1016,31774380,Seeing Is Believing: Blind Putting Drills Confer No Advantage to the Novice Golfer.,"Purpose : Golf coaches may recommend ""blind"" putting drills in which golfers close their eyes to improve their feel. Research on specificity of learning suggests, however, that adding or removing a source of sensory information after practicing under differing circumstances can cause performance decrements. Specificity of learning is also dependent upon specific task requirements. The purpose of this study was to examine whether golf putting, requiring body positioning and aiming an implement, would benefit from blind training. Method : Novice golfers (n = 24) in Vision Training (VT) & No-Vision Training (NVT) groups completed 108 trials of a 10-ft putt. After a 24-hr delay, both groups completed sighted- and blind-putting tests. Results : Acquisition results revealed Group × Block interactions in RE ( p = .025) and y-VE ( p = .032). Post hoc procedures revealed significant differences between the groups on Block 2 ( p = .017), with the NVT group producing longer mean RE. During testing, RE and x-VE results revealed Group × Test interactions ( p = .027 & .041), such that performance of the VT group suffered when transferred to blind putting, while performance of the NVT group did not differ when transferred. Conclusion : NVT did not confer any advantage for subsequent performance with vision. Moreover, results were not consistent with the specificity of learning hypothesis and suggest that putting does not rely on complete sensory integration to support subsequent performance.

1017,31774382,Can the Stereotype Threat and Lift Phenomenon Be Applicable to a Muscular Endurance Task?,"Purpose . Inducing a negative stereotype toward women usually leads to a decrease in women performance and an increase in men performance. These effects were observed during technical tasks. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the effect of this sex stereotype during a non-technical muscular endurance task. The perception of effort, closely related to endurance performance, was also recorded. Based on the type of task and the mere effort account, we predicted that both men and women in the negative stereotype toward women condition would perform better than participants in the two other groups. Method . Seventy-seven participants (38 women and 39 men) were randomly assigned to a negative stereotype toward women, a nullified-stereotype, or a control condition. Then, they performed a submaximal handgrip task until exhaustion at 50% of their maximal strength. Results . This study showed that performance at T2 was reduced for men and women in the nullified-stereotype and control conditions, but not in the negative stereotype toward women condition, revealing that participants in the negative stereotype toward women condition performed better than participants in the other conditions. No significant difference was observed concerning the perception of effort according to the conditions. Conclusion . As compared to technical tasks, inducing a negative stereotype toward women increased women's performance. The perception of effort could be responsible for this performance improvement. However, more research is needed to investigate the mechanisms involved. Concerning men, in line with the stereotype lift phenomenon, a performance increase was observed in this same condition.",2020,"This study showed that performance at T2 was reduced for men and women in the nullified-stereotype and control conditions, but not in the negative stereotype toward women condition, revealing that participants in the negative stereotype toward women condition performed better than participants in the other conditions.",['Seventy-seven participants (38 women and 39 men'],"['negative stereotype toward women, a nullified-stereotype, or a control condition', 'sex stereotype during a non-technical muscular endurance task']",['men performance'],"[{'cui': 'C3816957', 'cui_str': '70'}, {'cui': 'C0205453', 'cui_str': '7'}, {'cui': 'C0043210', 'cui_str': 'Girls'}, {'cui': 'C0086418', 'cui_str': 'Humans'}]","[{'cui': 'C0205160', 'cui_str': 'Negative (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0038272', 'cui_str': 'Stereotyping'}, {'cui': 'C0043210', 'cui_str': 'Girls'}, {'cui': 'C2587213', 'cui_str': 'Controlled (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0348080', 'cui_str': 'Condition (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C1314687', 'cui_str': 'Sexual intercourse - finding'}, {'cui': 'C0442025', 'cui_str': 'Muscular (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0518031', 'cui_str': 'Endurance capacity'}]","[{'cui': 'C0086418', 'cui_str': 'Humans'}]",77.0,0.0306224,"This study showed that performance at T2 was reduced for men and women in the nullified-stereotype and control conditions, but not in the negative stereotype toward women condition, revealing that participants in the negative stereotype toward women condition performed better than participants in the other conditions.","[{'ForeName': 'Maxime', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Deshayes', 'Affiliation': ""Université Côte d'Azur.""}, {'ForeName': 'Raphaël', 'Initials': 'R', 'LastName': 'Zory', 'Affiliation': ""Université Côte d'Azur.""}, {'ForeName': 'Allison E', 'Initials': 'AE', 'LastName': 'Seitchik', 'Affiliation': 'Merrimack College.'}, {'ForeName': 'Aïna', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Chalabaev', 'Affiliation': 'Université Grenoble Alpes.'}, {'ForeName': 'Corentin', 'Initials': 'C', 'LastName': 'Clément-Guillotin', 'Affiliation': ""Université Côte d'Azur.""}]",Research quarterly for exercise and sport,['10.1080/02701367.2019.1668518']
1018,31585702,Which hospitalized smokers receive a prescription for quit-smoking medication at discharge? A secondary analysis of a smoking cessation randomized clinical trial.,"OBJECTIVE
To determine the prevalence and predictors of receiving a smoking cessation medication prescription at discharge.
METHODS
Retrospective analysis of ongoing Human Studies Committee-approved clinical trial data at large tertiary care center, The University of Kansas Medical Center. Patients included were smokers over 18, either Spanish or English speaking, those admitted between October 1, 2016 through May 31, 2018. Other eligibility criteria include access to a telephone or mobile phone, not currently be pregnant or breastfeeding, have no significant co-morbidity that precludes participation (acute, life-threatening illness, and communication barriers such as tracheal tube or altered mental status). Those included in this analysis were those randomized into the trial who expressed interest in receiving a smoking cessation medication prescription at discharge.
RESULTS
Two hundred fourteen patients were recommended a prescription by their smoking cessation counselor, 88 patients (41.12%) were approved a prescription at discharge. Out of those approved, 50.70 (14.05 SD) was the average age, 12.84 (8.47 SD) was the average number of cigarettes used per day, 47 patients (53.41%) were White, 49 patients (55.68%) were admitted through the emergency department, 55 patients (62.50%) had used smoking cessation medication in the past, 49 patients (55.68%) had used inpatient smoking cessation, 36 patients (40.91%) had Medicaid. A binary logistic regression determined to show insurance status (P = 0.042) and use of inpatient smoking cessation medication use (P < 0.001) as statistically significant predictors of receiving a prescription at discharge.
CONCLUSION
It was determined that among the population recommended for medication, 41.12% actually received a prescription at discharge.

1019,30499929,Preliminary Efficacy of Online Traumatic Brain Injury Professional Development for Educators: An Exploratory Randomized Clinical Trial.,"OBJECTIVE
To examine the efficacy of an online traumatic brain injury (TBI) professional development intervention, In the Classroom After Concussion: Best Practices for Student Success.
DESIGN
A randomized controlled trial with a sample of 100 general educators, who were randomly assigned to the In the Classroom Web site (treatment group) or the LEARNet Web site (control group). Participants completed the pretest, accessed the In the Classroom or LEARNet site and the posttest and completed follow-up assessments 60 days after posttest.
MEASURES
(1) Knowledge of effective strategies for working with students with TBI; (2) knowledge application; (3) self-efficacy in handling situations presented in text and video scenarios, and (4) a standardized self-efficacy measure.
RESULTS
On the posttest assessment, In the Classroom educators showed significantly greater gains in knowledge (P < .0001, d = 1.36 [large effect]), TBI knowledge application (P = .0261, d = 0.46), and general self-efficacy (P = .0106, d = 0.39) than the LEARNet controls. In the Classroom educators maintained significant gains in knowledge (P = .001, d = 0.82) and general self-efficacy (P = .018, d = 0.38) but not in TBI knowledge application (P = .921, d = 0.02).

1021,31200891,Exercise intervention in the management of urinary incontinence in older women in villages in Bangladesh: a cluster randomised trial.,"BACKGROUND
Group exercise-based programmes for urinary incontinence appear to be promising low-cost interventions for women in developing countries, but no evidence exists to support whether they could be implemented or effective in such populations. We aimed to evaluate whether a group intervention that comprised pelvic floor muscle training, mobility exercises, and bladder education would be more effective than education alone, and report changes between villages (ie, clusters) rather than between individual participants.
METHODS
In this cluster randomised trial, we recruited women from 16 pairs of villages in Bangladesh, with each pair comprising similar villages from the same sub-district. Women aged 60-75 years were interviewed to establish eligibility. Women were eligible if they had current urinary incontinence, and were excluded if they had a third degree or higher uterine prolapse, if they were unable to walk or stand without help, or if they had insufficient intellectual capacity to understand questions and follow instructions. The villages were randomly assigned within each pair to either exercise plus education or education-only intervention by use of a random number generator from a fixed seed. Women were excluded after consenting if they lived too far from the centre of the village. The exercise intervention was a physiotherapist-led group exercise class that was held twice weekly for 12 weeks, with home exercises between classes and to 24 weeks. Both groups received bladder-health education. Participants were followed up for 24 weeks. A 3-day continence record was collected at recruitment and every 4 weeks up until 24 weeks. This record involved the participant tying a knot in ribbons worn under the clothing each time they had an episode of urinary leakage. The primary outcome was change in number of knots (recorded leakage episodes) from recruitment to 24 weeks. Safety was assessed in all participants in the exercise intervention group. The trial is registered at ClinicalTrials.gov, number NCT02453100.
FINDINGS
Between Aug 22, 2015, and July 2, 2018, of 3577 women aged 60-75 years identified, 1003 were eligible, of whom 625 consented to participate (n=335 exercise plus education villages, and n=290 in education-only villages). Of these consenting women, 46 were excluded (n=37 exercise plus education, n=9 education only) because they lived too far from the centre of the village. At week 24, 283 (95%) of 298 in the exercise plus education group and 274 (98%) of 281 in the education-only group completed a 3-day continence record. The estimate of change in number of leakage episodes between baseline and 24 weeks was -7·7 (95% CI -10·6 to -4·8) at the village level in an unadjusted model, and -6·64 (-7·95 to -5·33) in a random-effects model accounting for cluster randomisation. No adverse events were reported.

A structured group-exercise intervention has the potential to manage urinary incontinence in older women in communities largely outside the reach of pharmaceutical or surgical interventions.

1022,31200893,Efficacy of inactivated trivalent influenza vaccine in rural India: a 3-year cluster-randomised controlled trial.,"BACKGROUND
Paediatric vaccination against influenza can result in indirect protection, by reducing transmission to their unvaccinated contacts. We investigated whether influenza vaccination of children would protect them and their household members in a resource-limited setting.
METHODS
We did a cluster-randomised, blinded, controlled study in three villages in India. Clusters were defined as households (ie, dwellings that shared a courtyard), and children aged 6 months to 10 years were eligible for vaccination as and when they became age-eligible throughout the study. Households were randomly assigned (1:1) by a computer-based system to intramuscular trivalent inactivated influenza vaccine (IIV3) or a control of inactivated poliovirus vaccine (IPV) in the beginning of the study; vaccination occurred once a year for 3 years. The primary efficacy outcome was laboratory-confirmed influenza in a vaccinated child with febrile acute respiratory illness, analysed in the modified intention-to-treat population (ie, children who received at least one dose of vaccine, were under surveillance, and had not an influenza infection within 15 days of last vaccine dose). The secondary outcome for indirect effectiveness (surveillance study) was febrile acute respiratory illness in an unvaccinated household member of a vaccine study participant. Data from each year (year 1: November, 2009, to October, 2010; year 2: October, 2010, to October, 2011; and year 3: October, 2011, to May, 2012) were analysed separately. Safety was analysed among all participants who were vaccinated with at least one dose of the vaccine. This trial is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, number NCT00934245.
FINDINGS
Between Nov 1, 2009, to May 1, 2012, we enrolled 3208 households, of which 1959 had vaccine-eligible children. 1010 households were assigned to IIV3 and 949 households were assigned to IPV. In 3 years, we vaccinated 4345 children (2132 with IIV3 and 2213 with IPV) from 1868 households (968 with IIV3 and 900 with IPV) with 10 813 unvaccinated household contacts. In year 1, influenza virus was detected in 151 (10%) of 1572 IIV3 recipients and 206 (13%) of 1633 of IPV recipients (total IIV3 vaccine efficacy 25·6% [95% CI 6·8-40·6]; p=0·010). In year 2, 105 (6%) of 1705 IIV3 recipients and 182 (10%) of 1814 IPV recipients had influenza (vaccine efficacy 41·0% [24·1-54·1]; p<0·0001). In year 3, 20 (1%) of 1670 IIV3 recipients and 81 (5%) of 1786 IPV recipients had influenza (vaccine efficacy 74·2% [57·8-84·3]; p<0·0001). In year 1, total vaccine efficacy against influenza A(H1N1)pdm09 was 14·5% (-20·4 to 39·3). In year 2, total vaccine efficacy against influenza A(H3N2) was 64·5% (48·5-75·5). Total vaccine efficacy against influenza B was 32·5% (11·3-48·6) in year 1, 4·9% (-38·9 to 34·9) in year 2, and 76·5% (59·4-86·4) in year 3. Indirect vaccine effectiveness was statistically significant only in year 3 (38·1% [7·4-58·6], p=0·0197) when influenza was detected in 39 (1%) of 4323 IIV3-allocated and 60 (1%) of 4121 IPV-allocated household unvaccinated individuals. In the IIV3 group, 225 (12%) of 1632 children in year 1, 375 (22%) of 1718 in year 2, and 209 (12%) of 1673 in year 3 had an adverse reaction (compared with 216 [13%] of 1730, 380 [21%] of 1825, and 235 [13%] of 1796, respectively, in the IPV group). The most common reactions in both groups were fever and tenderness at site. No vaccine-related deaths occurred in either group.
INTERPRETATION
IIV3 provided variable direct and indirect protection against influenza infection. Indirect protection was significant during the year of highest direct protection and should be considered when quantifying the effect of vaccination programmes.

1023,31784747,Biomarkers and Noncalcified Coronary Artery Plaque Progression in Older Men Treated With Testosterone.,"OBJECTIVE
Recent results from the Cardiovascular Trial of the Testosterone Trials showed that testosterone treatment of older men with low testosterone was associated with greater progression of noncalcified plaque (NCP). We evaluated the effect of anthropometric measures and cardiovascular biomarkers on plaque progression in individuals in the Testosterone Trial.
METHODS
The Cardiovascular part of the trial included 170 men aged 65 years or older with low testosterone. Participants received testosterone gel or placebo gel for 12 months. The primary outcome was change in NCP volume from baseline to 12 months, as determined by coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA). We assayed several markers of cardiovascular risk and analyzed each marker individually in a model as predictive variables and change in NCP as the dependent variable.
RESULTS
Of 170 enrollees, 138 (73 testosterone, 65 placebo) completed the study and were available for the primary analysis. Of 10 markers evaluated, none showed a significant association with the change in NCP volume, but a significant interaction between treatment assignment and waist-hip ratio (WHR) (P = 0.0014) indicated that this variable impacted the testosterone effect on NCP volume. The statistical model indicated that for every 0.1 change in the WHR, the testosterone-induced 12-month change in NCP volume increased by 26.96 mm3 (95% confidence interval, 7.72-46.20).
CONCLUSION
Among older men with low testosterone treated for 1 year, greater WHR was associated with greater NCP progression, as measured by CCTA. Other biomarkers and anthropometric measures did not show statistically significant association with plaque progression.",2020,Other biomarkers and anthropometric measures did not show statistically significant association with plaque progression.,"['individuals in the T Trial', '170 men aged 65 years or older with low T.

1024,30499926,A Comparison of 2 Online Parent Skills Training Interventions for Early Childhood Brain Injury: Improvements in Internalizing and Executive Function Behaviors.,"OBJECTIVE
To examine the effectiveness of a web-based parenting intervention (Internet-Based Interacting Together Everyday: Recovery After Childhood TBI [I-InTERACT]) and an abbreviated version (Express) in reducing executive dysfunction and internalizing problems among young children following traumatic brain injury (TBI).
METHOD
Parents of 113 children (ages 3-9 years) who had sustained a TBI were randomized to 1 of 3 treatment groups: I-InTERACT, Express, or an Internet Resource Comparison (IRC) group. Parents who participated in either I-InTERACT or Express completed self-guided web sessions and received live coaching of their parenting skills via videoconferencing with a therapist. I-InTERACT included additional psychoeducation, stress management, and family communication skills (eg, marriage, grief, pain, and sleep). Analyses of covariance were utilized to compare the groups on parent-reported executive function behaviors (ie, Behavior Rating Inventory of Executive Function) and internalizing symptoms (ie, Child Behavior Checklist) at baseline and 6 months.
RESULTS
Parents who participated in Express reported significantly lower levels of executive dysfunction than those in I-InTERACT, β = -0.49; t(2, 73) = -2.47, P = .048, and significantly lower levels of withdrawal than those in the IRC group, β = -0.44; t(2, 74) = -2.22, P = .03. The Express group did not significantly differ from the IRC group on executive function behaviors or the I-InTERACT group on internalizing problems, all P > .05. Children with more problems at baseline, families with lower education levels, and parents with more symptoms of depression benefited most.
CONCLUSION
A brief, online parent training intervention may be efficacious in improving executive dysfunction and internalizing problems following early TBI, particularly among children of lower socioeconomic status or with existing behavioral concerns.",2019,"The Express group did not significantly differ from the IRC group on executive function behaviors or the I-InTERACT group on internalizing problems, all P > .05.","['Everyday', 'young children following traumatic brain injury (TBI', 'Parents of 113 children (ages 3-9 years) who had sustained a TBI', 'Early Childhood Brain Injury', 'After Childhood TBI', 't(2, 74) ', ' t(2, 73) ']","['web-based parenting intervention (Internet-Based Interacting Together', 'Internet Resource Comparison (IRC) group', 'online parent training intervention', 'abbreviated version (Express', 'live coaching of their parenting skills via videoconferencing with a therapist', 'IRC', '2 Online Parent Skills Training Interventions']","['family communication skills (eg, marriage, grief, pain, and sleep', 'Recovery', 'executive function behaviors', 'levels of withdrawal', 'executive dysfunction and internalizing problems', 'levels of executive dysfunction', 'executive function behaviors (ie, Behavior Rating Inventory of Executive Function) and internalizing symptoms (ie, Child Behavior Checklist']","[{'cui': 'C0337547', 'cui_str': 'Younger child (person)'}, {'cui': 'C0332282', 'cui_str': 'Following (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0876926', 'cui_str': 'TBI (Traumatic Brain Injury)'}, {'cui': 'C0030551', 'cui_str': 'Parent of (observable entity)'}, {'cui': 'C0008059', 'cui_str': 'Child'}, {'cui': 'C0001792', 'cui_str': 'Elderly'}, {'cui': 'C0439234', 'cui_str': 'year (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0443318', 'cui_str': 'Sustained (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0599196', 'cui_str': 'Early childhood'}, {'cui': 'C0270611', 'cui_str': 'Brain Injuries'}, {'cui': 'C0231335', 'cui_str': 'Childhood (finding)'}]","[{'cui': 'C0332875', 'cui_str': 'Congenital webbing (morphologic abnormality)'}, {'cui': 'C0178499', 'cui_str': 'Base'}, {'cui': 'C0282111', 'cui_str': 'World Wide Web'}, {'cui': 'C0035201', 'cui_str': 'Resources'}, {'cui': 'C0439745', 'cui_str': 'Grouped (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0085092', 'cui_str': 'Parenting'}, {'cui': 'C0220931', 'cui_str': 'Functional training'}, {'cui': 'C2607870', 'cui_str': 'Version (morphologic abnormality)'}, {'cui': 'C0332287', 'cui_str': 'With (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0559197', 'cui_str': 'Skills training (procedure)'}]","[{'cui': 'C0015576', 'cui_str': 'Family'}, {'cui': 'C0870313', 'cui_str': 'Communication skills'}, {'cui': 'C0024841', 'cui_str': 'Marriage'}, {'cui': 'C0018235', 'cui_str': 'Grief'}, {'cui': 'C0030193', 'cui_str': 'Pain'}, {'cui': 'C0424522', 'cui_str': 'Asleep (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C0935584', 'cui_str': 'Executive Control'}, {'cui': 'C0004927', 'cui_str': 'Behavior'}, {'cui': 'C0456079', 'cui_str': 'Level (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C2748208', 'cui_str': 'Executive dysfunction'}, {'cui': 'C0033213', 'cui_str': 'Problem (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C0021941', 'cui_str': 'Inventories'}, {'cui': 'C0683368', 'cui_str': 'symptoms'}, {'cui': 'C0008065', 'cui_str': 'Child Behavior'}, {'cui': 'C1707357', 'cui_str': 'Checklist'}]",113.0,0.0494341,"The Express group did not significantly differ from the IRC group on executive function behaviors or the I-InTERACT group on internalizing problems, all P > .05.","[{'ForeName': 'Jessica M', 'Initials': 'JM', 'LastName': 'Aguilar', 'Affiliation': ""Division of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation (Drs Aguilar and Wade and Ms Shultz) and Division of Biostatistics and Epidemiology (Dr Cassedy), Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center, Ohio; University of Cincinnati, Ohio (Ms Shultz and Dr Wade); Children's Hospital Colorado, Denver (Dr Kirkwood); Metrohealth Medical Center, Cleveland, Ohio (Dr Stancin); Case Western Reserve University, Cleveland, Ohio (Drs Stancin and Taylor); Department of Pediatrics and Clinical Neurosciences, University of Calgary, Ontario (Dr Yeates); and Rainbow Babies and Children's Hospital, University Hospitals Case Medical Center, Cleveland, Ohio (Dr Taylor).""}, {'ForeName': 'Amy E', 'Initials': 'AE', 'LastName': 'Cassedy', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Emily L', 'Initials': 'EL', 'LastName': 'Shultz', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Michael W', 'Initials': 'MW', 'LastName': 'Kirkwood', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Terry', 'Initials': 'T', 'LastName': 'Stancin', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Keith Owen', 'Initials': 'KO', 'LastName': 'Yeates', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'H Gerry', 'Initials': 'HG', 'LastName': 'Taylor', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Shari L', 'Initials': 'SL', 'LastName': 'Wade', 'Affiliation': ''}]",The Journal of head trauma rehabilitation,['10.1097/HTR.0000000000000443']
1025,31766273,Natural Choline from Egg Yolk Phospholipids Is More Efficiently Absorbed Compared with Choline Bitartrate; Outcomes of A Randomized Trial in Healthy Adults.,"Choline is a vitamin-like essential nutrient, important throughout one's lifespan. Therefore, choline salts are added to infant formula, supplements and functional foods. However, if choline is present in a natural form, e.g. bound to phospholipids, it may be more efficiently absorbed. The study's aim was to evaluate if choline uptake is improved after consumption of an egg yolk phospholipid drink, containing 3 g of phospholipid bound choline, compared to a control drink with 3 g of choline bitartrate. We performed a randomized, double blind, cross-over trial with 18 participants. Plasma choline, betaine and dimethylglycine concentrations were determined before and up to six hours after consumption of the drinks. The plasma choline response, as determined by the incremental area under the curve, was four times higher after consumption of the egg yolk phospholipid drink compared with the control drink ( p < 0.01).

1026,32410463,Empagliflozin in Heart Failure: Diuretic and Cardio-Renal Effects.,"Background: Sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT-2i's) improve heart failure (HF) related outcomes. The mechanisms underlying these benefits are not well understood, but diuretic properties may contribute. Traditional diuretics, such as furosemide, induce substantial neurohormonal activation contributing to the limited improvement in intravascular volume often seen with these agents. However, the proximal tubular site of action of the SGLT-2i's may help circumvent these limitations. Methods: 20 patients with type-2 diabetes and chronic, stable HF completed a randomized placebo-controlled crossover study of empagliflozin 10mg daily vs. placebo. Patients underwent an intensive 6-hour biospecimen collection and cardio-renal phenotyping at baseline and again after 14 days of study drug. After a 2-week washout, patients crossed over to the alternate therapy with repeat of the above protocol. Results: Oral empagliflozin was rapidly absorbed as evidenced by a 27-fold increase in urinary glucose excretion by 3 hours (p<0.0001). Fractional excretion of sodium (FENa) increased significantly with empagliflozin monotherapy vs. placebo (FENa 1.2 ± 0.7% vs. 0.7 ± 0.4% p=0.001) and there was a synergistic effect in combination with bumetanide (FENa 5.8 ± 2.5% vs. 3.9 ± 1.9%, p=0.001). At 14 days, the natriuretic effect of empagliflozin persisted, resulting in a reduction in blood volume (-208mL, IQR -536 to 153 mL vs -14mL, IQR -282 to 335 mL, p=0.035), and plasma volume (-138mL, IQR -379 to 154mL ± 453 mL, p=0.04). This natriuresis was not, however, associated with evidence of neurohormonal activation as change in norepinephrine was superior (p = 0.02) and all other neurohormones similar (p<0.34) during the empagliflozin vs. placebo period. Furthermore, there was no evidence of potassium wasting (p=0.20), or renal dysfunction (p>0.11 for all biomarkers), whereas both serum magnesium (p<0.001) and uric acid levels (p=0.008) improved. Conclusions: Empagliflozin causes significant natriuresis, particularly when combined with loop diuretics, resulting in an improvement in blood volume. However, off-target electrolyte wasting, renal dysfunction, and neurohormonal activation were not observed. This favorable diuretic profile may offer significant advantage in the management of volume status in HF patients and may represent a mechanism contributing to the superior long-term HF outcomes observed with these agents.

1027,30721647,"Randomised controlled trial of a brief, clinic-based intervention to promote safer sex among young Black men who have sex with men: implications for pre-exposure prophylaxis-related counselling.","Background The aim of this study was to determine the 3-month efficacy of a single-session, clinic-based intervention promoting condom use for anal and oral sex among HIV-uninfected Black young men who have sex with men (YBMSM).
METHODS
A pre-post test randomised controlled trial (RCT) was conducted from 2012 to 2015 using a 3-month period of observation. Recruitment and assessment occurred in sexually transmissible infection (STI) clinics. Men were randomised to either the intervention condition (n=142) or a standard-of-care control condition (n=135). The experimental condition comprised a single session of a one-to-one program designed for use in STI clinics. YBMSM completed both baseline and 3-month follow-up assessments. Outcomes measures were condomless anal insertive sex, condomless anal receptive sex and condomless oral sex.
RESULTS
Among men receiving the intervention, 11.2% (n=15) reported any condomless anal insertive sex at follow-up, compared with 20.6% (n=27) among controls (rate ratio=0.54, P=0.04). In addition, 12.0% (n=17) of men receiving the intervention reported any condomless anal receptive sex at follow-up, compared with 21.6% (n=29) among controls (rate ratio=0.55, P=0.03). When combining insertive and receptive anal sex, 18.3% (n=26) of men receiving the intervention reported any condomless sex, compared with 31.1% (n=42) among controls (rate ratio=0.59, P=0.01). Furthermore, 45.8% (n=33) of men receiving the intervention reported any condomless oral sex at follow-up, compared with 63.2% (n=48) among controls (rate ratio=0.72, P=0.03).
CONCLUSIONS
This analysis of data from a Phase 3 RCT suggests that a single session of a clinic-based behavioural intervention may effectively promote the consistent use of condoms for anal and oral sex among HIV-uninfected YBMSM. The single-session program may be a valuable counselling tool for use in conjunction with recommended quarterly clinic appointments for YBMSM using pre-exposure prophylaxis.",2019,"Among men receiving the intervention, 11.2% (n=15) reported any condomless anal insertive sex at follow-up, compared with 20.6% (n=27) among controls (rate ratio=0.54, P=0.04).","['HIV-uninfected Black young men who have sex with men (YBMSM', '2012 to 2015 using a 3-month period of observation', 'young Black men who have sex with men']","['clinic-based intervention', 'single-session, clinic-based intervention promoting condom', 'intervention condition (n=142) or a standard-of-care control condition']","['condomless anal receptive sex', 'condomless anal insertive sex, condomless anal receptive sex and condomless oral sex', 'condomless oral sex', 'condomless anal insertive sex']","[{'cui': 'C0019682', 'cui_str': 'HTLV-III'}, {'cui': 'C0439541', 'cui_str': 'Black color (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0332239', 'cui_str': 'Young (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0242657', 'cui_str': 'Men Who Have Sex With Men'}, {'cui': 'C0439231', 'cui_str': 'month (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0302523', 'cui_str': 'Observation'}]","[{'cui': 'C0442592', 'cui_str': 'Clinic (environment)'}, {'cui': 'C0178499', 'cui_str': 'Base'}, {'cui': 'C0205171', 'cui_str': 'Singular (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0009653', 'cui_str': 'Condoms'}, {'cui': 'C0348080', 'cui_str': 'Condition (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C2936643', 'cui_str': 'Standard of Care'}, {'cui': 'C2587213', 'cui_str': 'Controlled (qualifier value)'}]","[{'cui': 'C2939124', 'cui_str': 'Anal (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C1314687', 'cui_str': 'Sexual intercourse - finding'}, {'cui': 'C0282348', 'cui_str': 'Oral Sex'}]",,0.0530849,"Among men receiving the intervention, 11.2% (n=15) reported any condomless anal insertive sex at follow-up, compared with 20.6% (n=27) among controls (rate ratio=0.54, P=0.04).","[{'ForeName': 'Richard A', 'Initials': 'RA', 'LastName': 'Crosby', 'Affiliation': 'College of Public Health at the University of Kentucky, 111 Washington Avenue, Lexington, KY 40506-0003, USA; and Kinsey Institute for Research in Sex, Gender, and Reproduction, Indiana University, Bloomington, IN 47408, USA; and University of Mississippi Medical Center, 2500 North State Street, Jackson, MS 39216, USA; and Corresponding author.

1028,31013499,Effects of Acupuncture Treatment on Lower Limb Spasticity in Patients Following Hemorrhagic Stroke: A Pilot Study.,"BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE
Lower limb spasticity is often a significant problem in stoke rehabilitation. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of acupuncture treatment on lower limb spasticity in patients following hemorrhagic stroke.
METHODS
Fifty-nine patients following hemorrhagic stroke were randomized to receive acupuncture treatment combined with conventional treatment (treatment group [TG]) or conventional treatment only (control group [CG]). Acupuncture treatments were given in 24 sessions over 4 weeks. Blinded evaluation was based on Modified Ashworth Scale (MAS), short intracortical inhibition (SICI), and Hmax/Mmax ratio as the primary outcomes. In addition, Fugl-Meyer Assessment (FMA), Barthel Index (BI), motor evoked potential (MEP) and surface integrated electromyogram (IEMG) were employed as the secondary outcomes. All the evaluations were performed at 14 and 28 days after the start of the treatment.
RESULTS
Compared with the CG, the TG showed a significantly greater over-time decrease in MAS for knee (p = 0.022) and ankle (p = 0.017), SICI (p = 0.000) and Hmax/Mmax ratio (p = 0.000). In all patients of TG, we found a greater improvement in lower-limb FMA and MEP but not in BI. IEMG show that TG obtained a greater reduction in spastic agonist muscles and a greater enhancement in spastic antagonist muscles. A significant correlation between a greater decrease in ankle MAS and a greater increase in SICI for spastic muscles was found (r = 0.390, p = 0.002).
CONCLUSIONS
Acupuncture could improve the lower limb spasticity and motor function, thus providing a safe and economical approach for treating stroke patients. The potential mechanism underpinning the greater improvement may be attributed to a reshape of corticospinal plasticity induced by acupuncture.",2019,"A significant correlation between a greater decrease in ankle MAS and a greater increase in SICI for spastic muscles was found (r = 0.390, p = 0.002).

1029,32410543,The Value of Low-dose Prospective Dual-energy Computed Tomography with Iodine Mapping in the Diagnosis of Gastric Cancer.,"OBJECTIVES
This study investigated the radiation dose and value of prospective dualenergy computed tomography (DECT) in the diagnosis of gastric cancer.
METHODS
Sixty patients scheduled for computed tomography (CT) for preoperative staging were divided into two groups. Thirty patients (Group A) underwent a single contrast-enhanced abdominal CT acquisition using a dual-source mode (100 kV/140 kV). Weighted average images of the two-kilovolt acquisitions and iodine maps were created. The remaining 30 patients underwent a standard CT scan (Group B). Two observers performed a blinded read of the images for gastric lesions, evaluating the image quality and recording effective dose.
RESULTS
During the blinded read, observers found 90% (27/30) of the cancers in both groups. The mean imaging quality scores were 2.1±0.9 for Group A, and 2.3±1.1 for Group B. The effective mean doses were 6.59±0.59 mSv and 25.86±0.44 mSv for Groups A and B, respectively. Compared with the control group (B), the imaging quality in the low-dose group decreased a little, but the radiation dose substantially decreased by 74.6%.
CONCLUSION
The new DECT technique is valuable for examining gastric cancer patients.

1030,31192515,Masseter corticomotor excitability is decreased after intramuscular administration of nerve growth factor.,"BACKGROUND
Quantification of motor-evoked potentials (MEPs) can contribute to better elucidate the central modulation of motor pathways in response to nociceptive inputs. The primary aim of this study was to assess the modulatory effects of nerve growth factor (NGF) injection on masseter corticomotor excitability.
METHODS
The healthy participants of this randomized, double blind placebo-controlled experiment were assigned to have injected into the right masseter muscle either NGF (n = 25) or isotonic saline (IS, n = 17). The following variables were assessed at baseline and 48 hr after the injection: right masseter MEP amplitude and corticomotor mapping and clinical assessment of jaw pain intensity and function. Repeated Measures ANOVA was applied to the data.
RESULTS
NGF caused jaw pain and increased jaw functional disability after the injection (p < 0.050). Also, the participants in the NGF group decreased the MEP amplitude (p < 0.001) but the IS group did not present any significant modulation after the injection (p > 0.050). Likewise, the participants in the NGF group reduced corticomotor map area and volume (p < 0.001), but the IS group did not show any significant corticomotor mapping changes after the injection (p > 0.050). Finally, there was a significant correlation between the magnitude of decreased corticomotor excitability and jaw pain intensity on chewing 48 hr after the NGF injection (r = -0.51, p = 0.009).
CONCLUSION
NGF-induced masseter muscle soreness can significantly reduce jaw muscle corticomotor excitability, which in turn is associated with lower jaw pain intensity and substantiates the occurrence of central changes that most likely aim to protect the musculoskeletal orofacial structures.
SIGNIFICANCE
Intramuscular administration of nerve growth factor into masseter muscle causes inhibitory corticomotor plasticity, which likely occurs to prevent further damage and seems associated with lower pain intensity on function.",2019,"Likewise, the participants in the NGF group reduced corticomotor map area and volume (p<0.001), but the IS group did not show any significant corticomotor mapping changes after the injection (p>0.050).",['healthy participants'],"['NGF-induced masseter muscle soreness', 'placebo', 'isotonic saline', 'NGF', 'motor-evoked potentials (MEPs', 'nerve growth factor (NGF) injection']","['jaw pain and increased jaw functional disability', 'MEP amplitude', 'right masseter MEP amplitude and corticomotor mapping and clinical assessment of jaw pain intensity and function', 'Masseter corticomotor excitability', 'corticomotor excitability and jaw pain intensity']","[{'cui': 'C1708335', 'cui_str': 'Healthy Participants'}]","[{'cui': 'C0027752', 'cui_str': 'Nerve Growth Factor'}, {'cui': 'C0205263', 'cui_str': 'Induced (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0024876', 'cui_str': 'Masseter Muscle'}, {'cui': 'C0234233', 'cui_str': 'Tenderness (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C1696465', 'cui_str': 'placebo'}, {'cui': 'C0445115', 'cui_str': '0.9% NaCl'}, {'cui': 'C0282617', 'cui_str': 'Evoked Potentials, Motor'}, {'cui': 'C1272883', 'cui_str': 'Injection'}]","[{'cui': 'C0236000', 'cui_str': 'Jaw pain (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C0205217', 'cui_str': 'Increased (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0022359', 'cui_str': 'Jaw'}, {'cui': 'C0205245', 'cui_str': 'Functional (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0231170', 'cui_str': 'Disability (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C0205090', 'cui_str': 'Right (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0205210', 'cui_str': 'Clinical (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C1261322', 'cui_str': 'Clinical evaluation'}, {'cui': 'C4049786', 'cui_str': 'Intensities'}, {'cui': 'C0031843', 'cui_str': 'function'}, {'cui': 'C0235169', 'cui_str': 'Excitability (finding)'}]",,0.209691,"Likewise, the participants in the NGF group reduced corticomotor map area and volume (p<0.001), but the IS group did not show any significant corticomotor mapping changes after the injection (p>0.050).","[{'ForeName': 'Yuri M', 'Initials': 'YM', 'LastName': 'Costa', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Physiological Sciences, Piracicaba Dental School, University of Campinas, Piracicaba, Brazil.'}, {'ForeName': 'Fernando G', 'Initials': 'FG', 'LastName': 'Exposto', 'Affiliation': 'Section of Orofacial Pain and Jaw Function, Department of Dentistry and Oral Health, Aarhus University, Aarhus, Denmark.'}, {'ForeName': 'Mohit', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Kothari', 'Affiliation': 'Scandinavian Center for Orofacial Neurosciences (SCON), Aarhus, Denmark.'}, {'ForeName': 'Eduardo E', 'Initials': 'EE', 'LastName': 'Castrillon', 'Affiliation': 'Section of Orofacial Pain and Jaw Function, Department of Dentistry and Oral Health, Aarhus University, Aarhus, Denmark.'}, {'ForeName': 'Paulo César R', 'Initials': 'PCR', 'LastName': 'Conti', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Prosthodontics, Bauru School of Dentistry, University of São Paulo, Bauru, Brazil.'}, {'ForeName': 'Leonardo R', 'Initials': 'LR', 'LastName': 'Bonjardim', 'Affiliation': 'Section of Head and Face Physiology, Department of Biological Sciences, Bauru School of Dentistry, University of São Paulo, Bauru, Brazil.'}, {'ForeName': 'Peter', 'Initials': 'P', 'LastName': 'Svensson', 'Affiliation': 'Section of Orofacial Pain and Jaw Function, Department of Dentistry and Oral Health, Aarhus University, Aarhus, Denmark.'}]","European journal of pain (London, England)",['10.1002/ejp.1438']
1031,32410485,"Caffeinated Beverage Intake, Dyspnea With Ticagrelor, and Cardiovascular Outcomes: Insights From the PEGASUS-TIMI 54 Trial.","Background A proposed cause of dyspnea induced by ticagrelor is an increase in adenosine blood levels. Because caffeine is an adenosine antagonist, it can potentially improve drug tolerability with regard to dyspnea. Furthermore, association between caffeine and cardiovascular events is of clinical interest. Methods and Results This prespecified analysis used data from the PEGASUS TIMI 54 (Prevention of Cardiovascular Events in Patients With Prior Heart Attack Using Ticagrelor Compared to Placebo on a Background of Aspirin-Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction 54) trial, which randomized 21 162 patients with prior myocardial infarction to ticagrelor 60 mg or 90 mg or matching placebo (twice daily). Baseline caffeine intake in cups per week was prospectively collected for 9694 patients. Outcomes of interest included dyspnea, major adverse cardiovascular events (ie, the composite of cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, or stroke), and arrhythmias. Dyspnea analyses considered the pooled ticagrelor group, whereas cardiovascular outcome analyses included patients from the 3 randomized arms. After adjustment, caffeine intake, compared with no intake, was not associated with lower rates of dyspnea in patients taking ticagrelor (adjusted hazard ratio (HR), 0.91; 95% CI, 0.76-1.10; P =0.34). There was no excess risk with caffeine for major adverse cardiovascular events (adjusted HR, 0.78; 95% CI, 0.63-0.98; P =0.031), sudden cardiac death (adjusted HR, 0.98; 95% CI, 0.57-1.70; P =0.95), or atrial fibrillation (adjusted odds ratio, 1.07; 95% CI, 0.56-2.04; P =0.84). Conclusions In patients taking ticagrelor for secondary prevention after myocardial infarction, caffeine intake at baseline was not associated with lower rates of dyspnea compared with no intake. Otherwise, caffeine appeared to be safe in this population, with no apparent increase in atherothrombotic events or clinically significant arrhythmias.

1032,31178342,"Hartmann's procedure versus sigmoidectomy with primary anastomosis for perforated diverticulitis with purulent or faecal peritonitis (LADIES): a multicentre, parallel-group, randomised, open-label, superiority trial.","BACKGROUND
Previous studies have suggested that sigmoidectomy with primary anastomosis is superior to Hartmann's procedure. The likelihood of stoma reversal after primary anastomosis has been reported to be higher and reversal seems to be associated with lower morbidity and mortality. Although promising, results from these previous studies remain uncertain because of potential selection bias. Therefore, this study aimed to assess outcomes after Hartmann's procedure versus sigmoidectomy with primary anastomosis, with or without defunctioning ileostomy, for perforated diverticulitis with purulent or faecal peritonitis (Hinchey III or IV disease) in a randomised trial.
METHODS
A multicentre, randomised, open-label, superiority trial was done in eight academic hospitals and 34 teaching hospitals in Belgium, Italy, and the Netherlands. Patients aged between 18 and 85 years who presented with clinical signs of general peritonitis and suspected perforated diverticulitis were eligible for inclusion if plain abdominal radiography or CT scan showed diffuse free air or fluid. Patients with Hinchey I or II diverticulitis were not eligible for inclusion. Patients were allocated (1:1) to Hartmann's procedure or sigmoidectomy with primary anastomosis, with or without defunctioning ileostomy. Patients were enrolled by the surgeon or surgical resident involved, and secure online randomisation software was used in the operating room or by the trial coordinator on the phone. Random and concealed block sizes of two, four, or six were used, and randomisation was stratified by age (<60 and ≥60 years). The primary endpoint was 12-month stoma-free survival. Patients were analysed according to a modified intention-to-treat principle. The trial is registered with the Netherlands Trial Register, number NTR2037, and ClinicalTrials.gov, number NCT01317485.
FINDINGS
Between July 1, 2010, and Feb 22, 2013, and June 9, 2013, and trial termination on June 3, 2016, 133 patients (93 with Hinchey III disease and 40 with Hinchey IV disease) were randomly assigned to Hartmann's procedure (68 patients) or primary anastomosis (65 patients). Two patients in the Hartmann's group were excluded, as was one in the primary anastomosis group; the modified intention-to-treat population therefore consisted of 66 patients in the Hartmann's procedure group (46 with Hinchey III disease, 20 with Hinchey IV disease) and 64 in the primary anastomosis group (46 with Hinchey III disease, 18 with Hinchey IV disease). In 17 (27%) of 64 patients assigned to primary anastomosis, no stoma was constructed. 12-month stoma-free survival was significantly better for patients undergoing primary anastomosis compared with Hartmann's procedure (94·6% [95% CI 88·7-100] vs 71·7% [95% CI 60·1-83·3], hazard ratio 2·79 [95% CI 1·86-4·18]; log-rank p<0·0001). There were no significant differences in short-term morbidity and mortality after the index procedure for Hartmann's procedure compared with primary anastomosis (morbidity: 29 [44%] of 66 patients vs 25 [39%] of 64, p=0·60; mortality: two [3%] vs four [6%], p=0·44).
INTERPRETATION
In haemodynamically stable, immunocompetent patients younger than 85 years, primary anastomosis is preferable to Hartmann's procedure as a treatment for perforated diverticulitis (Hinchey III or Hinchey IV disease).

1033,31575021,Baseline Serum Vitamin A and D Levels Determine Benefit of Oral Vitamin A&D Supplements to Humoral Immune Responses Following Pediatric Influenza Vaccination.,"Maximizing vaccine efficacy is critical, but previous research has failed to provide a one-size-fits-all solution. Although vitamin A and vitamin D supplementation studies have been designed to improve vaccine efficacy, experimental results have been inconclusive. Information is urgently needed to explain study discrepancies and to provide guidance for the future use of vitamin supplements at the time of vaccination. We conducted a randomized, blinded, placebo-controlled study of influenza virus vaccination and vitamin supplementation among 2 to 8 (inclusive) year old children over three seasons, including 2015-2016 ( n = 9), 2016-2017 ( n = 44), and 2017-2018 ( n = 26). Baseline measurements of vitamins A and D were obtained from all participants. Measurements were of serum retinol, retinol-binding protein (RBP, a surrogate for retinol), and 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D). Participants were stratified into two groups based on high and low incoming levels of RBP. Children received two doses of the seasonal influenza virus vaccine on days 0 and 28, either with an oral vitamin supplement (termed A&D; 20,000 IU retinyl palmitate and 2000 IU cholecalciferol) or a matched placebo. Hemagglutination inhibition (HAI) antibody responses were evaluated toward all four components of the influenza virus vaccines on days 0, 28, and 56. Our primary data were from season 2016-2017, as enrollment was highest in this season and all children exhibited homogeneous and negative HAI responses toward the Phuket vaccine at study entry. Responses among children who entered the study with insufficient or deficient levels of RBP and 25(OH)D benefited from the A&D supplement ( p < 0.001 for the day 28 Phuket response), whereas responses among children with replete levels of RBP and 25(OH)D at baseline were unaffected or weakened ( p = 0.02 for the day 28 Phuket response). High baseline RBP levels associated with high HAI titers, particularly for children in the placebo group (baseline RBP correlated positively with Phuket HAI titers on day 28, r = 0.6, p = 0.003). In contrast, high baseline 25(OH)D levels associated with weak HAI titers, particularly for children in the A&D group (baseline 25(OH)D correlated negatively with Phuket HAI titers on day 28, r = -0.5, p = 0.02). Overall, our study demonstrates that vitamin A&D supplementation can improve immune responses to vaccines when children are vitamin A and D-insufficient at baseline. Results provide guidance for the appropriate use of vitamins A and D in future clinical vaccine studies.",2019,"High baseline RBP levels associated with high HAI titers, particularly for children in

1034,30945740,Sleep Apnea Multilevel Surgery (SAMS) trial protocol: a multicenter randomized clinical trial of upper airway surgery for patients with obstructive sleep apnea who have failed continuous positive airway pressure.,"STUDY OBJECTIVES
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a serious and costly public health problem. The main medical treatment, continuous positive airway pressure, is efficacious when used, but poorly tolerated in up to 50% of patients. Upper airway reconstructive surgery is available when medical treatments fail but randomized trial evidence supporting its use is limited. This protocol details a randomized controlled trial designed to assess the clinical effectiveness, safety, and cost-effectiveness of a multilevel upper airway surgical procedure for OSA.
METHODS
A prospective, parallel-group, open label, randomized, controlled, multicenter clinical trial in adults with moderate or severe OSA who have failed or refused medical therapies. Six clinical sites in Australia randomly allocated participants in a 1:1 ratio to receive either an upper airway surgical procedure consisting of a modified uvulopalatopharyngoplasty and minimally invasive tongue volume reduction, or to continue with ongoing medical management, and followed them for 6 months.
RESULTS
Primary outcomes: difference between groups in baseline-adjusted 6 month OSA severity (apnea-hypopnea index) and subjective sleepiness (Epworth Sleepiness Scale). Secondary outcomes: other OSA symptoms (e.g. snoring and objective sleepiness), other polysomnography parameters (e.g. arousal index and 4% oxygen desaturation index), quality of life, 24 hr ambulatory blood pressure, adverse events, and adherence to ongoing medical therapies (medical group).
CONCLUSIONS
The Sleep Apnea Multilevel Surgery (SAMS) trial is of global public health importance for testing the effectiveness and safety of a multilevel surgical procedure for patients with OSA who have failed medical treatment.

1035,31106666,Predictive value of serum amyloid a levels for requirement of concomitant methotrexate in tocilizumab initiation: A post hoc analysis of the SURPRISE study.,"Objectives: To identify predictive factors for remission by tocilizumab monotherapy in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients. Methods: This is a post hoc analysis of the SURPRISE study, a 2-year randomized, controlled study comparing the efficacy of tocilizumab with (ADD-ON) and without methotrexate (SWITCH). The primary endpoint was DAS28-ESR remission (<2.6) at week 24. The change in modified total Sharp score from baseline to week 52 (ΔmTSS/year) was also assessed as an endpoint. The effect of clinical parameters at baseline on remission was estimated by logistic regression analysis. Results: In SWITCH ( n = 96), CRP, SAA, RF, and DAS28 at baseline showed predictive value for DAS28 remission in unadjusted analysis. Adjusted analysis confirmed SAA and DAS28 as predictive factors, with SAA having the highest value (ROC-AUC = 0.731). Furthermore, structural remission (ΔmTSS/year ≤ 0.5) rate was significantly higher in patients with SAA of < 50.0 μg/mL than other patients. In contrast, in ADD-ON ( n = 98), only DAS28 showed predictive value for DAS28 remission. In patients with SAA < 50.0 μg/mL, both DAS28 remission and structural remission rate were comparable between SWITCH and ADD-ON. Conclusion: RA patients with low SAA levels at baseline may benefit similarly from tocilizumab with and without methotrexate.

1036,32410578,Application of the matched nested case-control design to the secondary analysis of trial data.,"BACKGROUND
A nested case-control study is an efficient design that can be embedded within an existing cohort study or randomised trial. It has a number of advantages compared to the conventional case-control design, and has the potential to answer important research questions using untapped prospectively collected data.
METHODS
We demonstrate the utility of the matched nested case-control design by applying it to a secondary analysis of the Abnormal Doppler Enteral Prescription Trial. We investigated the role of milk feed type and changes in milk feed type in the development of necrotising enterocolitis in a group of 398 high risk growth-restricted preterm infants.
RESULTS
Using matching, we were able to generate a comparable sample of controls selected from the same population as the cases. In contrast to the standard case-control design, exposure status was ascertained prior to the outcome event occurring and the comparison between the cases and matched controls could be made at the point at which the event occurred. This enabled us to reliably investigate the temporal relationship between feed type and necrotising enterocolitis.
CONCLUSIONS
A matched nested case-control study can be used to identify credible associations in a secondary analysis of clinical trial data where the exposure of interest was not randomised, and has several advantages over a standard case-control design. This method offers the potential to make reliable inferences in scenarios where it would be unethical or impractical to perform a randomised clinical trial.",2020,"It has a number of advantages compared to the conventional case-control design, and has the potential to answer important research questions using untapped prospectively collected data.

1037,32410495,Intervention Adherence and Self-Efficacy as Predictors of Child Outcomes in School Nurse-Delivered Interventions for Anxiety.,"This study examined the association between two implementation factors, nurse-reported intervention adherence and self-efficacy, and children's outcomes in school nurse-delivered anxiety interventions. Data were collected in a pilot randomized controlled effectiveness trial with 54 children and 21 school nurses. Nurses implemented either a cognitive behavioral or relaxation-skills-only intervention. Nurse questionnaires assessed implementation factors. Independent evaluators assessed changes in children's anxiety symptoms at postintervention and at 3-month follow-up using clinical improvement and global functioning scales. Regression analyses indicated that greater intervention adherence was associated with greater anxiety symptom improvement at follow-up. Nurse self-efficacy interacted with intervention group, such that nurses with higher self-efficacy who implemented the cognitive behavioral intervention tended to have children show improvement and higher postintervention functioning. The impact of implementation factors on children's outcomes may differ depending on intervention type. Self-efficacy may be important for nurses using relatively complex interventions. Intervention adherence should be supported through training and consultation.",2020,"Nurse self-efficacy interacted with intervention group, such that nurses with higher self-efficacy who implemented the cognitive behavioral intervention tended to have children show improvement and higher postintervention functioning.","['54 children and 21 school nurses', 'School Nurse-Delivered Interventions for Anxiety']","['school nurse-delivered anxiety interventions', 'cognitive behavioral or relaxation-skills-only intervention', 'cognitive behavioral intervention']","[""children's anxiety symptoms"", 'anxiety symptom improvement', 'Self-efficacy']","[{'cui': 'C0008059', 'cui_str': 'Child'}, {'cui': 'C0302833', 'cui_str': 'School nurse'}, {'cui': 'C0184661', 'cui_str': 'Procedure'}, {'cui': 'C0003467', 'cui_str': 'Anxiety'}]","[{'cui': 'C0302833', 'cui_str': 'School nurse'}, {'cui': 'C0003467', 'cui_str': 'Anxiety'}, {'cui': 'C0184661', 'cui_str': 'Procedure'}, {'cui': 'C0004927', 'cui_str': 'Behavior finding'}, {'cui': 'C0035028', 'cui_str': 'Relaxation'}, {'cui': 'C0004933', 'cui_str': 'Behavioral therapy'}]","[{'cui': 'C0008059', 'cui_str': 'Child'}, {'cui': 'C0860603', 'cui_str': 'Anxiety symptoms'}, {'cui': 'C0600564', 'cui_str': 'Self Efficacy'}]",54.0,0.0180323,"Nurse self-efficacy interacted with intervention group, such that nurses with higher self-efficacy who implemented the cognitive behavioral intervention tended to have children show improvement and higher postintervention functioning.","[{'ForeName': 'E B', 'Initials': 'EB', 'LastName': 'Caron', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Psychological Science, Fitchburg State University, MA, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Kelly L', 'Initials': 'KL', 'LastName': 'Drake', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences, Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore, MD, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Catherine E', 'Initials': 'CE', 'LastName': 'Stewart', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Psychological Sciences, University of Connecticut, Storrs, CT, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Michela A', 'Initials': 'MA', 'LastName': 'Muggeo', 'Affiliation': 'Clarus Health Alliance, Norwich, CT, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Golda S', 'Initials': 'GS', 'LastName': 'Ginsburg', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Psychiatry, University of Connecticut School of Medicine, West Hartford, CT, USA.'}]",The Journal of school nursing : the official publication of the National Association of School Nurses,['10.1177/1059840520925522']
1038,32410519,Comparison and Evaluation of Three Techniques for Treating Auricular Pseudocyst.,"BACKGROUND
Auricular pseudocyst is a benign cystic lesion in cartilages of the auricle. Different methods are currently used to manage this disease. In these methods, simple aspiration combined with pressure dressing, local steroid injection and surgery are the most prevalent therapies.
OBJECTIVE
To find the best clinical path for the treatment of auricular pseudocyst.
METHODS
Eighty-four subjects were randomly allocated into three equal groups (Group A: simple suction combined with pressure dressing; Group B: suction and local steroid injection; and, Group C: surgery). Two otolaryngologists assessed effective rate, sequelae and degree of satisfaction at three-month follow-up. A visual analog scale was used to determine degree of satisfaction.
RESULTS
Group A had the lowest effective rate (54%). Group C was highest in terms of effectiveness (100%) but also in incidence of sequelae (71%). Group B had a slightly lower effective rate (86%) than Group C, but the incidence of sequelae was lowest (42%). Degree of satisfaction was highest (7.0 ± 2.7) for Group B.
CONCLUSION
Local steroid injection should be the first choice for the treatment of auricular pseudocyst because of high satisfaction, favorable effectiveness and few sequelae.

1039,29631457,"Effects of Kinesio taping in rectus femoris activity and sit-to-stand movement in children with unilateral cerebral palsy: placebo-controlled, repeated-measure design.","Background: Although it has been commonly used in rehabilitation sets, there is a lack of studies verifying the effects of Kinesio taping to improve functionality in children with Cerebral Palsy (CP). This information would promote evidence-based practice. Purpose: To verify the effects of Kinesio taping in the performance of sit-to-stand movement in children with unilateral CP. Methods and materials: A blinded, single placebo-controlled and repeated-measure design. The setting was the rehabilitation clinic of the university and care facilities. A total of 11 children from 6 to 12 years of age (mean: 10.5 years; standard deviation: 2.8 years) and classified as levels I and II by the Gross Motor Function Classification System were included. Kinesio taping was applied over the rectus femoris of the affected limb. Three taping conditions were used: Kinesio taping, without Kinesio taping and placebo. Three seat heights were used: neutral (100%), lowered (80%), and elevated (120%). Muscle activity (electromyography) and trunk and lower limb alignment (kinematics) were evaluated as body structures and function measures. The time required to perform sit-to-stand was used as a functionality measure. Mixed analysis of variation (ANOVA) measured angular variables of the hip, knee, ankle, and rectus femoris activity. Repeated ANOVA measured angular variables of trunk and pelvis and total duration. Significance was accepted for values of p ≤ 0.05. Results: Kinesio taping increased rectus femoris activity, decreased peak flexion of the trunk, knee, hip, and ankle, and increased trunk extension in the end of sit-to-stand when compared with without Kinesio taping and placebo. Total duration was decreased with lower effect sizes. Conclusions: Immediate application of Kinesio taping modified body structures and function measures during sit-to-stand in children with unilateral CP, but it did not alter functionality.

1040,31053213,Effects of Two-Week Sleep Extension on Glucose Metabolism in Chronically Sleep-Deprived Individuals.,"STUDY OBJECTIVES
Sleep deprivation is known to be associated with insulin resistance and diabetes risk. This study investigated whether 2-week sleep extension in chronically sleep-deprived individuals would improve glucose metabolism.
METHODS
A crossover study was conducted in volunteers without diabetes who reported sleeping ≤ 6 h/night. They were randomized to maintain their habitual sleep or extend sleep time for 2 weeks, then crossed over after a washout period. Sleep was monitored by actigraphy. Oral glucose tolerance tests (75 g) with insulin levels was performed at the end of each period. Mixed-effect linear regression analysis, adjusting for sequence and period effects, was applied.
RESULTS
A total of 21 participants (19 females) with mean (standard deviation) age of 33.1 (6.1) years completed the protocol. Mean sleep duration during habitual sleep was 318.7 (44.3) minutes and the participants extended their sleep by 36.0 (45.2) minutes during sleep extension. The average washout period was 21 (11) days. There were no significant effects of sleep extension on any metabolic parameters. The per-protocol analysis included eight participants who could sleep more than 6 hours during sleep extension (mean sleep duration 396 [25] minutes, extended by 60.1 [28.5] minutes). Among these individuals, sleep extension improved Homeostatic Model Assessment of Insulin Resistance (adjusted mean difference -0.50 [95% confidence interval [CI] -0.89, -0.11, P = .013]), early insulin secretion (insulinogenic index; mean difference 0.39 [95% CI 0.15, 0.63, P = .001]), and β-cell function (disposition index, mean difference 1.07 [95% CI 0.17, 1.97, P = .02]).
CONCLUSIONS
Sleep extension in chronically sleep-deprived individuals improved glucose metabolism in only those who could objectively extend their sleep to more than 6 h/night.

1041,31182181,Does food insulin index in the context of mixed meals affect postprandial metabolic responses and appetite in obese adolescents with insulin resistance? A randomised cross-over trial.,"The food insulin index (II) is a novel classification to rank foods based on their physiological insulin demand relative to an isoenergetic reference food and may be a valid predictor of postprandial insulin responses and appetite. The present study aimed to compare the postprandial metabolic responses and appetite sensations to two macronutrient- and glycaemic index-matched meals with either high or low II in obese adolescents with insulin resistance (IR). A randomised, single-blind and cross-over trial included fifteen obese adolescents aged 12-18 years with IR. All participants were provided with two different breakfasts: low glycaemic index, low insulin index (LGI-LII) and low glycaemic index, high insulin index (LGI-HII), with a 1-week washout period between meals. At time 0 (just before breakfast), 15, 30, 45, 60, 90, 120, 180 and 240 min after the meal, serum glucose, insulin and C-peptide levels and appetite scores were measured. At the end of 4 h, participants were served ad libitum lunch. Early (0-30 min), late (45-240 min) and total (0-240 min) postprandial insulin responses were lowered by 56·1, 34·6 and 35·6 % after the LGI-LII meal v. LGI-HII meal (P < 0·05). The feeling of hunger was also decreased by 25·8 and 27·5 % after the LGI-LII meal v. LGI-HII meal during the late and total responses (P < 0·05).

1042,29474851,Active learning improves on-task behaviors in 4th grade children.,"While increased opportunities for physical activity (PA) are a critical, public health need for children, school-based interventions often place teachers in the position to choose between PA and time spent on academic lessons. Active learning is designed to overcome this by combining PA with academic material. Moreover, teachers are likely to be more responsive to change in academic-related outcomes than in PA. This study utilizes a large, cluster randomized control trial in which student attention, or time on task (TOT) and accelerometer-based PA is assessed in conjunction with active learning. Participants were 2716 children (46% male, 46% white) from 28 elementary schools in Central Texas that were assigned to either: 1) active learning (math n = 10; spelling n = 9); or 2) traditional, sedentary academic lessons (n = 9). PA was measured with accelerometers. TOT was measured through a momentary time sampling protocol. A series of three-level (student, classroom, school) regression models estimated the effect of the intervention. The intervention lead to significantly increased TOT. Moreover, the dose of PA (steps) during the intervention was positively associated with the increase in TOT. In contrast, a greater dose of PA was associated with reduced TOT for students in control schools. Race, gender, and SES did not moderate these effects. Planned PA - as a part of an active, academic lesson - positively impacted TOT. In contrast, a traditional, sedentary lesson was associated with lower TOT. This differential impact offers intriguing possibilities to better understand the relationship between PA and academic performance.",2018,The intervention lead to significantly increased TOT.,"['Participants were 2716 children (46% male, 46% white) from 28 elementary schools in Central Texas that were assigned to either: 1', '4th grade children']","['active learning (math n\u202f=\u202f10; spelling n\u202f=\u202f9); or 2) traditional, sedentary academic lessons', 'Active learning']","['TOT', 'task behaviors']","[{'cui': 'C0008059', 'cui_str': 'Child'}, {'cui': 'C0086582', 'cui_str': 'Males'}, {'cui': 'C0043157', 'cui_str': 'Whites'}, {'cui': 'C0036375', 'cui_str': 'School'}, {'cui': 'C0205099', 'cui_str': 'Central (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0039711', 'cui_str': 'Texas'}, {'cui': 'C1516050', 'cui_str': 'Assigned (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0205438', 'cui_str': 'Fourth (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0441800', 'cui_str': 'Grading (attribute)'}]","[{'cui': 'C0243012', 'cui_str': 'Experiential Learning'}, {'cui': 'C0331515', 'cui_str': 'Triticum spelta'}, {'cui': 'C0443324', 'cui_str': 'Traditional (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0205254', 'cui_str': 'Inactive (qualifier value)'}]","[{'cui': 'C0004927', 'cui_str': 'Behavior'}]",2716.0,0.0344585,The intervention lead to significantly increased TOT.,"[{'ForeName': 'J B', 'Initials': 'JB', 'LastName': 'Bartholomew', 'Affiliation': 'The University of Texas at Austin, Austin, TX, United States.

1043,32410608,The role of text messaging intervention in Inner Mongolia among patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus: a randomized controlled trial.,"BACKGROUND
Short messages service (SMS) provides a practical medium for delivering content to address patients to adherence to self-management. The aim of study was to design some patient-centered health education messages, evaluate the feasibility of messages, and explore the effect of this model.
METHODS
The messages were designed by a panel of experts, and SMS Quality Evaluation Questionnaire was used to evaluate their quality. A two-arm randomized controlled trial was conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of this management model. Participants were randomly divided into an intervention group (IG) who received evaluated messages and a control group (CG) who received regular education. The primary outcomes were changes in plasma glucose and control rates, and the secondary outcomes were improvements in diet control, physical activities, weight control, etc. RESULTS: A total of 42 messages covering five main domains: health awareness, diet control, physical activities, living habits and weight control were designed, and the average scores of the messages were 8.0 (SD 0.7), 8.5 (SD 0.6), 7.9 (SD 1.0), 8.0 (SD 0.7), and 8.4 (SD 0.9), respectively. In the SMS intervention, 171 patients with an average age of 55.1 years were involved, including 86 in the CG and 85 in the IG. At 12 months, compared with the control group (CG), the decrease of fasting plasma glucose (FPG) (1.5 vs. 0.4, P = 0.011) and control rate (49.4% vs. 33.3%, P = 0.034), the postprandial glucose (PPG) (5.8 vs. 4.2, P = 0.009) and control rate (57.8% vs. 33.7%, P = 0.002) were better in the intervention group (IG). In terms of self-management, improvements in weight control (49.3% vs. 28.2%, P = 0.031), vegetables consumption (87.3% vs. 29.0%, P < 0.001), fruits consumption (27.5% vs. 7.4%, P = 0.022), and physical activities (84.7% vs. 70.0%, P = 0.036) were better in the IG than in the CG.
CONCLUSIONS
The overall quality of the messages was high. It was effective and feasible to carry out an SMS intervention to improve the behavioral habits of patients with chronic diseases in remote and undeveloped areas.

Focus Group Discussions (FGDs) were conducted among purposively selected low-income young mothers (with medical histories of adolescent perinatal depression), and separately with primary care clinicians treating this condition in Ibadan, Nigeria. Participants from this community-based study were from the database of respondents who participated in a previous randomized control trial (RCT) conducted between 2014 and 2016 in 28 primary health care facilities in the 11 Local government areas in Ibadan. Semi-structured interview guides, framed by themes of the Behavioral Model for Vulnerable Populations, was developed to obtain views of participants on the factors that promote or hinder help-seeking and engagement (see additional files 1 & 2). FGDs were conducted, and saturation of themes was achieved after discussions with six groups. Transcripts were analyzed using content analysis.
RESULTS
A total of 42 participants, 17 mothers (who were adolescents at the time of the RCT), and 25 care providers participated in 6 FGDs. The availability of care for perinatal depression at the primary care level was an important enabling factor in healthcare utilization for the adolescents. Perceived health benefits of treatment received for perinatal depression were strong motivation for service use. Significant stigma and negative stereotypes expressed by care providers towards adolescent pregnancy and perinatal depression were obstacles to care. However, individual patient resilience was a major enabling factor, facilitating service engagement. Providers trained in the management of perinatal depression were perceived to deliver more tolerant and supportive care that adolescent mothers valued.
CONCLUSIONS
Participants identified unsupportive and stigmatizing clinic environments towards pregnant and parenting adolescents as significant barriers to accessing available care. Interventions to reduce stigma among healthcare providers may improve services for this vulnerable population.",2020,The availability of care for perinatal depression at the primary care level was an important enabling factor in healthcare utilization for the adolescents.,"['42 participants, 17 mothers (who were adolescents at the time of the RCT), and 25 care providers participated in 6 FGDs', 'Focus Group Discussions (FGDs) were conducted among purposively selected low-income young mothers (with medical histories of adolescent perinatal depression), and separately with primary care clinicians treating this condition in Ibadan, Nigeria', 'adolescent perinatal depression in Ibadan Nigeria', 'Participants from this community-based study were from the database of respondents who participated in a previous randomized control trial (RCT) conducted between 2014 and 2016 in 28 primary health care facilities in the 11 Local government areas in Ibadan']",[],[],"[{'cui': 'C0026591', 'cui_str': 'Mother'}, {'cui': 'C0205653', 'cui_str': 'Adolescent'}, {'cui': 'C0040223', 'cui_str': 'Time'}, {'cui': 'C0282440', 'cui_str': 'Randomized Controlled Trials as Topic'}, {'cui': 'C0016400', 'cui_str': 'Focus Groups'}, {'cui': 'C0557061', 'cui_str': 'Discussion'}, {'cui': 'C0004927', 'cui_str': 'Behavior finding'}, {'cui': 'C0032854', 'cui_str': 'Financially poor'}, {'cui': 'C0332239', 'cui_str': 'Young'}, {'cui': 'C0262926', 'cui_str': 'History of'}, {'cui': 'C0559477', 'cui_str': 'Perinatal asphyxia'}, {'cui': 'C0033137', 'cui_str': 'Primary Care'}, {'cui': 'C0087111', 'cui_str': 'Therapeutic procedure'}, {'cui': 'C0009647', 'cui_str': 'Conditioning'}, {'cui': 'C0028075', 'cui_str': 'Nigeria'}, {'cui': 'C0009462', 'cui_str': 'Community'}, {'cui': 'C0002055', 'cui_str': 'Alkali'}, {'cui': 'C0008972', 'cui_str': 'Clinical Study'}, {'cui': 'C0993637', 'cui_str': 'Data Base'}, {'cui': 'C0282122', 'cui_str': 'Respondents'}, {'cui': 'C0205156', 'cui_str': 'Previous'}, {'cui': 'C0009932', 'cui_str': 'Control Groups'}, {'cui': 'C0008976', 'cui_str': 'Clinical trial'}, {'cui': 'C0026788', 'cui_str': 'Government, Local'}, {'cui': 'C0017446', 'cui_str': 'Geographic Locations'}]",[],[],42.0,0.0691441,The availability of care for perinatal depression at the primary care level was an important enabling factor in healthcare utilization for the adolescents.,"[{'ForeName': 'Lola', 'Initials': 'L', 'LastName': 'Kola', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Psychiatry, College of Medicine, University of Ibadan, Ibadan, Nigeria. lola_kola2004@yahoo.com.'}, {'ForeName': 'Ian M', 'Initials': 'IM', 'LastName': 'Bennett', 'Affiliation': 'Departments of Family Medicine, University of Washington, Seattle, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Amritha', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Bhat', 'Affiliation': 'Departments of Family Medicine, University of Washington, Seattle, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Olatunde O', 'Initials': 'OO', 'LastName': 'Ayinde', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Psychiatry, College of Medicine, University of Ibadan, Ibadan, Nigeria.'}, {'ForeName': 'Bibilola D', 'Initials': 'BD', 'LastName': 'Oladeji', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Psychiatry, College of Medicine, University of Ibadan, Ibadan, Nigeria.'}, {'ForeName': 'Dolapo', 'Initials': 'D', 'LastName': 'Abiona', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Psychiatry, College of Medicine, University of Ibadan, Ibadan, Nigeria.'}, {'ForeName': 'Jibril', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Abdumalik', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Psychiatry, College of Medicine, University of Ibadan, Ibadan, Nigeria.'}, {'ForeName': 'Neda', 'Initials': 'N', 'LastName': 'Faregh', 'Affiliation': 'Global Health, University of Washington, Seattle, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Pamela Y', 'Initials': 'PY', 'LastName': 'Collins', 'Affiliation': 'Psychiatry and Behavioral Science, University of Washington, Seattle, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Oye', 'Initials': 'O', 'LastName': 'Gureje', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Psychiatry, College of Medicine, University of Ibadan, Ibadan, Nigeria.'}]",BMC pregnancy and childbirth,['10.1186/s12884-020-02970-4']

Measures of depressive symptomatology and maternal-fetal attachment were collected at baseline and 36 weeks gestation. At 12 weeks postpartum, participants completed a measure of depressive symptomatology, and an objective measure of maternal sensitivity was collected. Participants randomized to the intervention group completed an average of 5.2 sessions, and 70% of women completed all six sessions. Exploratory analyses showed that at 12 weeks postpartum, participants randomized to the intervention group had an 8.32-point decrease from baseline on the Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS) as compared to a 4.59-point decrease among participants randomized to usual care. Participants randomized to the intervention group had a mean change score of 12.60 in maternal-fetal attachment via the Maternal Fetal Attachment Scale (MFAS) as compared to 4.60 among participants in usual care. Maternal sensitivity scores, assessed via the Nursing Child Assessment Satellite Training-Feeding Scale (NCAST-Feeding), were higher at 12 weeks postpartum for women in the intervention group as compared to women in usual care (59.2 and 51.8, respectively).

1048,32410636,Augmented reality-based navigation increases precision of pedicle screw insertion.,"BACKGROUND
Precise insertion of pedicle screws is important to avoid injury to closely adjacent neurovascular structures. The standard method for the insertion of pedicle screws is based on anatomical landmarks (free-hand technique). Head-mounted augmented reality (AR) devices can be used to guide instrumentation and implant placement in spinal surgery. This study evaluates the feasibility and precision of AR technology to improve precision of pedicle screw insertion compared to the current standard technique.
METHODS
Two board-certified orthopedic surgeons specialized in spine surgery and two novice surgeons were each instructed to drill pilot holes for 40 pedicle screws in eighty lumbar vertebra sawbones models in an agar-based gel. One hundred and sixty pedicles were randomized into two groups: the standard free-hand technique (FH) and augmented reality technique (AR). A 3D model of the vertebral body was superimposed over the AR headset. Half of the pedicles were drilled using the FH method, and the other half using the AR method.
RESULTS
The average minimal distance of the drill axis to the pedicle wall (MAPW) was similar in both groups for expert surgeons (FH 4.8 ± 1.0 mm vs. AR 5.0 ± 1.4 mm, p = 0.389) but for novice surgeons (FH 3.4 mm ± 1.8 mm, AR 4.2 ± 1.8 mm, p = 0.044). Expert surgeons showed 0 primary drill pedicle perforations (PDPP) in both the FH and AR groups. Novices showed 3 (7.5%) PDPP in the FH group and one perforation (2.5%) in the AR group, respectively (p > 0.005). Experts showed no statistically significant difference in average secondary screw pedicle perforations (SSPP) between the AR and the FH set 6-, 7-, and 8-mm screws (p > 0.05). Novices showed significant differences of SSPP between most groups: 6-mm screws, 18 (45%) vs. 7 (17.5%), p = 0.006; 7-mm screws, 20 (50%) vs. 10 (25%), p = 0.013; and 8-mm screws, 22 (55%) vs. 15 (37.5%), p = 0.053, in the FH and AR group, respectively. In novices, the average optimal medio-lateral convergent angle (oMLCA) was 3.23° (STD 4.90) and 0.62° (STD 4.56) for the FH and AR set screws (p = 0.017), respectively. Novices drilled with a higher precision with respect to the cranio-caudal inclination angle (CCIA) category (p = 0.04) with AR.
CONCLUSION
In this study, the additional anatomical information provided by the AR headset superimposed to real-world anatomy improved the precision of drilling pilot holes for pedicle screws in a laboratory setting and decreases the effect of surgeon's experience. Further technical development and validations studies are currently being performed to investigate potential clinical benefits of the herein described AR-based navigation approach.",2020,Experts showed no statistically significant difference in average secondary screw pedicle perforations (SSPP) between the AR and the FH set,"['Two board-certified orthopedic surgeons specialized in spine surgery and two novice surgeons', 'One hundred and sixty pedicles']","['Head-mounted augmented reality (AR) devices', 'standard free-hand technique (FH) and augmented reality technique (AR']","['SSPP', 'average minimal distance of the drill axis to the pedicle wall (MAPW', 'average secondary screw pedicle perforations (SSPP', 'average optimal medio-lateral convergent angle (oMLCA', 'primary drill pedicle perforations (PDPP']","[{'cui': 'C0007836', 'cui_str': 'Certification'}, {'cui': 'C0334891', 'cui_str': 'Orthopedic surgeon'}, {'cui': 'C0205555', 'cui_str': 'Special'}, {'cui': 'C0920347', 'cui_str': 'Procedure on spinal cord'}, {'cui': 'C0582175', 'cui_str': 'Surgeon'}, {'cui': 'C4319554', 'cui_str': '160'}, {'cui': 'C0456605', 'cui_str': 'Pedicle'}]","[{'cui': 'C0018670', 'cui_str': 'Head structure'}, {'cui': 'C0181909', 'cui_str': 'Mount'}, {'cui': 'C5197824', 'cui_str': 'Mixed Reality'}, {'cui': 'C0025664', 'cui_str': 'methods'}, {'cui': 'C0025080', 'cui_str': 'Biomedical equipment'}, {'cui': 'C0038137', 'cui_str': 'standards'}, {'cui': 'C0332296', 'cui_str': 'Free of'}, {'cui': 'C0456980', 'cui_str': 'Hand endodontic technique'}]","[{'cui': 'C0027627', 'cui_str': 'Metastasis'}, {'cui': 'C0005975', 'cui_str': 'Bone screw'}, {'cui': 'C0456605', 'cui_str': 'Pedicle'}, {'cui': 'C0549099', 'cui_str': 'Perforation'}, {'cui': 'C0547040', 'cui_str': 'Minimal'}, {'cui': 'C0012751', 'cui_str': 'Distance'}, {'cui': 'C0324815', 'cui_str': 'Mandrillus leucophaeus'}, {'cui': 'C0205380', 'cui_str': 'Walled'}, {'cui': 'C0205093', 'cui_str': 'Lateral'}, {'cui': 'C0205143', 'cui_str': 'Angular'}, {'cui': 'C0205225', 'cui_str': 'Principal'}]",160.0,0.0294771,Experts showed no statistically significant difference in average secondary screw pedicle perforations (SSPP) between the AR and the FH set,"[{'ForeName': 'Cyrill', 'Initials': 'C', 'LastName': 'Dennler', 'Affiliation': 'Spine Division, University Hospital Balgrist, University of Zürich, Forchstrasse 340, 8008, Zurich, Switzerland. cyrill.dennler@gmail.com.'}, {'ForeName': 'Laurenz', 'Initials': 'L', 'LastName': 'Jaberg', 'Affiliation': 'Spine Division, University Hospital Balgrist, University of Zürich, Forchstrasse 340, 8008, Zurich, Switzerland.'}, {'ForeName': 'José', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Spirig', 'Affiliation': 'Spine Division, University Hospital Balgrist, University of Zürich, Forchstrasse 340, 8008, Zurich, Switzerland.'}, {'ForeName': 'Christoph', 'Initials': 'C', 'LastName': 'Agten', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Radiology, University Hospital Balgrist, University of Zürich, Zurich, Switzerland.'}, {'ForeName': 'Tobias', 'Initials': 'T', 'LastName': 'Götschi', 'Affiliation': 'Laboratory for Biomechanics, University Hospital Balgrist, University of Zürich, Zurich, Switzerland.'}, {'ForeName': 'Philipp', 'Initials': 'P', 'LastName': 'Fürnstahl', 'Affiliation': 'Computer Assisted Research and Development Group, University Hospital Balgrist, University of Zürich, Zurich, Switzerland.'}, {'ForeName': 'Mazda', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Farshad', 'Affiliation': 'Spine Division, University Hospital Balgrist, University of Zürich, Forchstrasse 340, 8008, Zurich, Switzerland.'}]",Journal of orthopaedic surgery and research,['10.1186/s13018-020-01690-x']

1051,31101534,"Docetaxel plus cisplatin and S-1 versus cisplatin and S-1 in patients with advanced gastric cancer (JCOG1013): an open-label, phase 3, randomised controlled trial.","BACKGROUND
We investigated the superiority of docetaxel plus cisplatin and S-1 compared with cisplatin and S-1 in chemotherapy-naive patients with advanced gastric cancer.
METHODS
In this open-label, phase 3, randomised controlled trial, patients were recruited from 56 hospitals in Japan. We enrolled individuals aged 20-75 years who had unresectable or recurrent gastric cancer, had an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 or 1, had received no previous chemotherapy (except adjuvant chemotherapy completed 24 weeks before reccurence), radiotherapy, or hormonal therapy, could take drugs orally, and had adequate organ function. Patients were randomly assigned (1:1) to receive docetaxel plus cisplatin and S-1 (docetaxel 40 mg/m 2 and cisplatin 60 mg/m 2 on day 1 intravenously, and S-1 40-60 mg twice a day orally for 2 weeks, every 4 weeks) or cisplatin and S-1 (cisplatin 60 mg/m 2 intravenously on day 8, and S-1 40-60 mg orally twice a day for 3 weeks, every 5 weeks). Randomisation was done centrally with the minimisation method, with a random component balancing for institution, ECOG performance status (0 vs 1), disease status at enrolment (unresectable vs recurrent), measurable lesion (yes vs no), number of metastatic sites (0-1 vs ≥2), and histological type (differentiated vs undifferentiated). Neither investigators or patients were masked to the study treatment. The primary endpoint was overall survival in the intention-to-treat population. The study is registered with UMIN-CTR, number UMIN000007652.
FINDINGS
Between April 3, 2012, and March 18, 2016, 741 patients were randomly assigned to receive docetaxel plus cisplatin and S-1 (n=370) or cisplatin and S-1 (n=371). Median overall survival was 14·2 months (95% CI 12·9-15·9) in the docetaxel plus cisplatin and S-1 group and 15·3 months (14·2-16·2) in the cisplatin and S-1 group (hazard ratio [HR] 0·99 [95% CI 0·85-1·16]; one-sided stratified log-rank p=0·47). The most common grade 3 or worse adverse events were neutropenia (209 [59%] of 357 patients in the docetaxel plus cisplatin and S-1 group vs 117 [32%] of 365 patients in the cisplatin and S-1 group), leukopenia (120 [34%] vs 60 [16%]), and anorexia (94 [26%] vs 81 [22%]). The deaths of one patient in the cisplatin and S-1 group and in three patients in the docetaxel plus cisplatin and S-1 group were deemed treatment-related.
INTERPRETATION
The addition of docetaxel to cisplatin and S-1 did not improve overall survival in chemotherapy-naive Japanese patients with advanced gastric cancer. Therefore, cisplatin and S-1 remains the standard first-line chemotherapy.

1052,31116908,Impact of percutaneous closure device type on vascular and bleeding complications after TAVR: A post hoc analysis from the BRAVO-3 randomized trial.,"BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVE
Prostar XL (PS) and ProGlide (PG) are common vascular closure devices (VCD) used in TAVR via transfemoral vascular approach. The impact of these VCD on vascular and bleeding complications remains unclear.
METHODS
The BRAVO-3 trial randomized 802 patients undergoing transfemoral TAVR. We stratified patients according to type of VCD used and examined the 30-day incidence of major or minor vascular complications, major bleeding (BARC ≥3b), AKI and major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCE; death, myocardial infarction or stroke).
RESULTS
A total of 746 (93%) patients were treated with either PS (n = 352, 47%) or PG (n = 394, 53%) VCD, without significant differences in successful deployment rate (PS 322 [91.2%] vs. PG 373 [94.2%] respectively, p = .20). PG was associated with a significantly lower incidence of major or minor vascular complications, compared to PS (adjusted OR: 0.54; 95% CI: 0.37-0.80; p < .01). Rates of acute kidney injury were also lower with the PG device. There was no significant difference between bleeding, MACCE, and death.

1053,31116913,Impact of intravascular ultrasound-guided drug-eluting stent implantation on patients with chronic kidney disease: Results from ULTIMATE trial.,"OBJECTIVES
This study aimed to investigate the impacts of intravascular ultrasound (IVUS)-guided drug-eluting stent (DES) implantation on patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) based on the ULTIMATE trial.
BACKGROUND
IVUS-guided DES implantation improves clinical outcomes in complex lesions. However, routine IVUS guidance in patients with CKD remains controversial.
METHODS
CKD was defined as an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) <60 mL min -1 1.73 m -2 . The primary end point was target vessel failure (TVF) at 12 months, including cardiac death, target vessel myocardial infarction, and clinically driven target vessel revascularization.
RESULTS
eGFR was available in 1,443 patients, of whom 723 were in the IVUS guidance group, and 720 were in the angiography guidance group. Finally, CKD was present in 349 (24.2%) patients. At 12 months, TVF in the CKD group was 7.2%, which was significantly higher than 3.2% in the non-CKD group (p = .001). Moreover, there were 25 TVFs in the CKD patients, with 7 (3.9%) TVFs in the IVUS group and 18 (10.7%) TVFs in the angiography group (hazard ratio [HR]: 0.35; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.15-0.84; p = .01), whereas 35 TVFs occurred in patients without CKD, with 14 (2.6%) TVFs in the IVUS group and 21 (3.8%) TVFs in the angiography group (HR: 0.67; 95% CI: 0.34-1.32; p = .25; p for interaction = .24).
CONCLUSIONS
This study demonstrated that CKD patients undergoing DES implantations were associated with a higher risk of TVF at 12 months. More importantly, the risk of TVF in the CKD patients could be significantly decreased through IVUS guidance.

1054,32410198,The Role of Skin Thickness in the Choice of a Rhinoplasty Technique for Thin-Skinned Patients: Analysis of Long-Term Results and Patient Satisfaction.,"INTRODUCTION
This randomized controlled study aimed to analyse the long-term results of thin-skinned patients who underwent rhinoplasty.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
All the included study patients had the following characteristics: underwent primary rhinoplasty for functional and/or cosmetic problems, were thin-skinned, had been followed for almost 2 years, underwent both standard pre- and post-operative photography, had a good understanding of the Italian language, and had signed a consent form for inclusion in the study. The patients were randomly divided into 4 groups as follows: group 1, camouflage of the dorsum by diced cartilage; group 2, camouflage of the dorsum with lipofilling; group 3, camouflage of the dorsum by a temporal fascia graft; and group 4 (control group), without camouflage of the dorsum. Patients answered the Italian version of the FACE-Q rhinoplasty module. The Obagi skin pinch test was used to measure nasal skin thickness. We compared pre- and post-operative patient satisfaction with the appearance of their nose between the 4 patient groups by the Chi-squared test for unpaired data. Two plastic surgeons reviewed all the post-operative photographs of the study patients and rated the photographs on a scale of 1 to 5.
RESULTS
A total of 101 patients who underwent primary rhinoplasty between January 2016 and March 2018 in our department of plastic surgery and satisfied the inclusion criteria were enrolled in this study. The mean patient age was 38.5 years. The mean follow-up time was 2.5 years. The differences between the preoperative and post-operative FACE-Q values for group 1 were significant (P < 0.01), whereas the differences between the preoperative and post-operative FACE-Q values for the other groups were not significant. The results for group 1 patients remained stable over the long-term follow-up compared with the results for other groups (P < 0.01). Groups 2 and 4 underwent more secondary procedures than groups 1 and 3 (P < 0.01). The 2 reviewers determined that patient groups 1 and 3 obtained more satisfactory outcomes than groups 1 and 4 (P < 0.01).
CONCLUSIONS
This was the first randomized study to demonstrate that diced cartilage grafts used for thin-skinned patients was the best approach for obtaining a satisfactory long-term outcome and durable natural appearance.

1055,31171470,Daily Passive Muscle Stretching Improves Flow-Mediated Dilation of Popliteal Artery and 6-minute Walk Test in Elderly Patients with Stable Symptomatic Peripheral Artery Disease.,"BACKGROUND
Patients with peripheral arterial disease (PAD) often have walking impairment due to insufficient oxygen supply to skeletal muscle. In aged rats, we have shown that daily stretching of calf muscles improves endothelium-dependent dilation of arterioles from the soleus muscle and increases capillarity and muscle blood flow during exercise. Therefore, we hypothesized that daily muscle stretching of calf muscles would improve endothelium-dependent vasodilation of the popliteal artery and walking function in PAD patients.
METHODS
We performed a randomized, non-blinded, crossover study whereby 13 patients with stable symptomatic PAD were randomized to undergo either 4 weeks of passive calf muscle stretching (ankle dorsiflexion applied 30 min/d, 5 days/wk) followed by 4 weeks of no muscle stretching and vice versa. Endothelium-dependent flow-mediated dilation (FMD) and endothelium-independent nitroglycerin-induced dilation of the popliteal artery and 6 minute walk test (6MWT) were evaluated at baseline and after each 4 week interval.
RESULTS
After 4 weeks of muscle stretching, FMD and 6MWT improved significantly in the muscle stretching group vs. the control (FMD: 5.1 ± 0.5% vs. 3.7 ± 0.3%, P = 0.005; 6MWT continuous walking distance: 304 ± 43 m vs. 182 ± 34 m; P = 0.0006). No difference in nitroglycerin-induced dilation was found between groups (10.9 ± 1.2 vs. 9.9 ± 0.4%, P = 0.48). Post-stretching, 6MWT total walking distance was positively correlated with normalized FMD (R = 0.645, P = 0.02).
CONCLUSIONS
Passive calf muscle stretching enhanced vascular endothelial function and improved walking function in elderly patients with stable symptomatic PAD. These findings merit further investigation in a prospective randomized trial.",2019,"Post-stretching, 6MWT total walking distance was positively correlated with normalized FMD (R = 0.645, P = 0.02).

1056,30954567,Doxorubicin-loaded nanoparticles for patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma after sorafenib treatment failure (RELIVE): a phase 3 randomised controlled trial.,"BACKGROUND
Cytotoxic chemotherapy is generally ineffective in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma. We assessed the intravenous perfusion of doxorubicin-loaded nanoparticles in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma in whom previous sorafenib therapy had failed.
METHODS
We did a multicentre, open-label, randomised, controlled phase 3 trial at 70 sites in 11 countries. Patients with hepatocellular carcinoma with one or more previous systemic therapies, including sorafenib, were randomly assigned to receive 30 mg/m 2 doxorubicin-loaded nanoparticles (30 mg/m 2 group), 20 mg/m 2 doxorubicin-loaded nanoparticles (20 mg/m 2 group), or standard care using a computer-generated randomisation list prepared by the funder and stratified by geographic region. Patients in the experimental groups received perfusion of the drug every 4 weeks and those in the control group received any systemic anticancer therapy (except sorafenib) as per investigator decision. The primary endpoint was overall survival in the intention-to-treat population. Safety was assessed in the population of patients who received at least one dose of their assigned treatment. This trial is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, number NCT01655693.
FINDINGS
Between June 15, 2012, and Jan 27, 2017, 541 patients were screened, of whom 144 were excluded and 397 were randomly assigned to one of the groups (133 to the 30 mg/m 2 group; 130 to the 20 mg/m 2 group; and 134 to the control group). Median follow-up was 22·7 months (IQR 11·2-34·9). After pooling the doxorubicin groups for the efficacy analysis, median overall survival was 9·1 months (95% CI 8·1-10·4) in the pooled doxorubicin-loaded nanoparticles group and 9·0 months (7·1-11·8) in the control group (HR 1·00 [95% CI 0·78-1·28], two-sided p=0·99). 227 (94%) of 242 patients who received doxorubicin-loaded nanoparticles and 100 (75%) of 134 patients in the control group had at least one treatment-emergent adverse event. The most common drug-related grade 3 or 4 treatment-emergent adverse events were neutropenia (25 [10%] of 242 treated with doxorubicin-loaded nanoparticles and eight [6%] of 134 in the control group), asthenia (six [2%] and four [3%]), and thrombocytopenia (three [1%] and ten [7%]). Six (2%) patients treated with doxorubicin-loaded nanoparticles and one (1%) of those in the control group were deemed by investigators to have had a drug-related death. Serious adverse events occurred in 74 (31%) patients who received doxorubicin-loaded nanoparticles and 48 (36%) in the control group.

Doxorubicin-loaded nanoparticles did not improve overall survival for patients with hepatocellular carcinoma in whom previous sorafenib treatment had failed.

1057,32410641,Effect of acupuncture and its influence on cerebral activity in patients with persistent asthma: study protocol for a randomized controlled clinical trial.,"BACKGROUND
Previous studies suggested that acupuncture was a promising adjunctive treatment for asthma. However, the underlying mechanism of acupuncture for asthma remains unclear. The aim of the present trial is to explore whether and how specific meridian acupuncture works in quality of life and symptomatic improvement by modulating brain function in patients with asthma.
METHODS/DESIGN
This is a randomized controlled functional brain imaging trial currently being conducted in Sichuan, China. In total, 48 patients with mild to moderate persistent asthma will be recruited randomly and allocated to either of two acupuncture groups: acupuncture at the lung meridian or acupuncture at the heart meridian. The treatment period will last 4 weeks. The Asthma Quality of Life Questionnaire is the primary outcome. The Asthma Control Test, peak expiratory flow rate, forced expiratory volume in 1 s, Montreal Cognitive Assessment, Zung Self-rating Anxiety Scale, and Zung Self-rating Depression Scale will also be used to assess the clinical efficacy of different interventions. Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) will be performed to detect cerebral activity changes in each group. The clinical data and fMRI data will be analyzed between groups, then, the Pearson correlation analysis will be used to assess the association between the changes of cerebral activity features and the improvement of clinical outcomes in each group.
DISCUSSION
The present study has been established on the basis of the ""meridian-viscera relationship"" theory of traditional Chinese medicine and the modern central mechanism of acupuncture. The results of this trial would be useful to identify the efficiency of the specific meridian acupuncture for asthma. The investigation of its central mechanism would further expand knowledge of acupuncture for asthma.

1058,31068270,"Bictegravir combined with emtricitabine and tenofovir alafenamide versus dolutegravir, abacavir, and lamivudine for initial treatment of HIV-1 infection: week 96 results from a randomised, double-blind, multicentre, phase 3, non-inferiority trial.","BACKGROUND
Bictegravir co-formulated with emtricitabine and tenofovir alafenamide as a fixed-dose combination is recommended for treatment of HIV-1-infection and might be better tolerated than other integrase inhibitor-based single-tablet regimens, but long-term outcomes data are not available. We assessed the efficacy, safety and tolerability of bictegravir, emtricitabine, and tenofovir alafenamide compared with co-formulated dolutegravir, abacavir, and lamivudine at week 96.
METHODS
This ongoing, randomised, double-blind, multicentre, active-controlled, phase 3, non-inferiority trial was done at 122 outpatient centres in nine countries. We enrolled adults (aged ≥18 years) living with HIV who were treatment naive and HLA-B*5701 negative, did not have hepatitis B virus infection, and had an estimated glomerular filtration rate of at least 50 mL/min. We randomly assigned participants (1:1) to receive co-formulated bictegravir 50 mg, emtricitabine 200 mg, and tenofovir alafenamide 25 mg (the bictegravir group) or co-formulated dolutegravir 50 mg, abacavir 600 mg, and lamivudine 300 mg (the dolutegravir group), each with matching placebo, once daily for 144 weeks. Treatment allocation was masked to all participants and investigators. All participants who received at least one dose of study drug were included in primary efficacy and safety analyses. We previously reported the primary endpoint. Here, we report the week 96 secondary outcome of proportion of participants with plasma HIV-1 RNA less than 50 copies per mL at week 96 by US Food and Drug Administration snapshot algorithm, with a prespecified non-inferiority margin of -12%. This study was registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, number NCT02607930.
FINDINGS
Between Nov 13, 2015, and July 14, 2016, we screened 739 participants, of whom 108 were excluded and 631 enrolled and randomly assigned to bictegravir, emtricitabine, and tenofovir alafenamide (n=316) or dolutegravir, abacavir, and lamivudine (n=315). Two participants in the bictegravir group did not receive at least one dose of their assigned drug and were excluded from analyses. At week 96, bictegravir, emtricitabine, and tenofovir alafenamide was non-inferior to dolutegravir, abacavir, and lamivudine, with 276 (88%) of 314 participants in the bictegravir group versus 283 (90%) of 315 participants in the dolutegravir group achieving HIV-1 RNA less than 50 copies per mL (difference -1·9%; 95% CI -6·9 to 3·1). The most common adverse events were nausea (36 [11%] of 314 for the bictegravir group vs 76 [24%] of 315 for the dolutegravir group), diarrhoea (48 [15%] vs 50 [16%]), and headache (41 [13%] vs 51 [16%]). 36 (11%) participants in the bictegravir group versus 39 (12%) participants in the dolutegravir group had a serious adverse event. Two individuals died in the bictegravir group (recreational drug overdose and suicide, neither of which was treatment related) and none died in the dolutegravir group. No participants discontinued because of adverse events in the bictegravir group compared with five (2%) of 315 in the dolutegravir group. Study drug-related adverse events were reported for 89 (28%) participants in the bictegravir group and 127 (40%) in the dolutegravir group.
INTERPRETATION
These week 96 data support bictegravir, emtricitabine, and tenofovir alafenamide as a safe, well tolerated, and durable treatment for people living with HIV-1 with no emergent resistance.

The single-tablet regimen consisting of bictegravir, emtricitabine, and tenofovir alafenamide is recommended for treatment of HIV-1 infection on the basis of data from 48 weeks of treatment. Here, we examine the longer-term efficacy, safety, and tolerability of bictegravir, emtricitabine, and tenofovir alafenamide compared with dolutegravir plus co-formulated emtricitabine and tenofovir alafenamide at week 96.
METHODS
This ongoing, randomised, double-blind, multicentre, active-controlled, phase 3, non-inferiority trial was done at 126 outpatient centres in ten countries. We enrolled treatment-naive adults (aged ≥18 years) with HIV-1 infection who had an estimated glomerular filtration rate of at least 30 mL/min and sensitivity to emtricitabine and tenofovir. People with chronic hepatitis B or C infection, or both, and those who had used antivirals previously for prophylaxis were allowed. We randomly assigned participants (1:1) to receive treatment with either co-formulated bictegravir 50 mg, emtricitabine 200 mg, and tenofovir alafenamide 25 mg (the bictegravir group) or dolutegravir 50 mg with co-formulated emtricitabine 200 mg and tenofovir alafenamide 25 mg (the dolutegravir group), each with matching placebo, once daily for 144 weeks. Treatment allocation was masked to all participants and investigators. All participants who received at least one dose of study drug were included in primary efficacy and safety analyses.

This study was registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, number NCT02607956.
FINDINGS
Between Nov 13, 2015, and July 14, 2016, we screened 742 individuals, of whom 657 were enrolled. 327 participants were assigned to the bictegravir group and 330 to the dolutegravir group. Of these, 320 in the bictegravir group and 325 in the dolutegravir group received at least one dose of study drug. At week 96, HIV-1 RNA less than 50 copies per mL was achieved by 269 (84%) of 320 participants in the bictegravir group and 281 (86%) of 325 in the dolutegravir group (difference -2·3%, 95% CI -7·9 to 3·2), demonstrating non-inferiority of the bictegravir regimen compared with the dolutegravir regimen. Both treatments continued to be well tolerated through 96 weeks; 283 (88%) of 320 participants in the bictegravir group and 288 (89%) of 325 in the dolutegravir group had any adverse event and 55 (17%), and 33 (10%) had any serious adverse event. The most common adverse events were diarrhoea (57 [18%] of 320 in the bictegravir group vs 51 [16%] of 325 in the dolutegravir group) and headache (51 [16%] of 320 vs 48 [15%] of 325). Deaths were reported for three (1%) individuals in each group (one cardiac arrest, one gastric adenocarcinoma, and one hypertensive heart disease and congestive cardiac failure in the bictegravir group and one unknown causes, one pulmonary embolism, and one lymphoma in the dolutegravir group); none were considered to be treatment related. Adverse events led to discontinuation in six (2%) participants in the bictegravir group and five (2%) in the dolutegravir group; one of these events in the bictegravir group versus four in the dolutegravir group occurred between weeks 48 and 96. Study drug-related adverse events were reported for 64 (20%) participants in the bictegravir group and 92 (28%) in the dolutegravir group.
INTERPRETATION
These week 96 data support bictegravir, emtricitabine, and tenofovir alafenamide as a safe, well tolerated, and durable treatment for people living with chronic HIV.

1060,31133627,Water Pipe Smoking Reduction in the Male Adolescent Students: An Educational Intervention Using Multi-Theory Model.,"BACKGROUND
Water pipe smoking (WPS) has increased and is becoming a major leisure pastime among young people in Iran. The aim of this study was to determine of efficacy of an educational intervention based on Multi-Theory Model (MTM) to reduce WPS in the male adolescent students in Iran.
STUDY DESIGN
A randomized controlled trial.
METHODS
Overall, 94 male adolescent students (grades 10, 11) smoked water pipe (WP) in the past month (current WP smokers) were selected, allocated randomly in two groups (47 students in intervention group and 47 students in control group), in two different schools in 2018 in Hamadan City, western Iran. Data were collected utilizing a valid and reliable questionnaire based on MTM constructs and demographic variables. Educational intervention was designed in five 45-min sessions. Two groups were followed-up three-months after completion of intervention. The collected data were analyzed using SPSS 22 software through Chi-square test, independent-sample t-test, paired-samples t-test, and Friedman test.
RESULTS
There were significant differences between the mean score of participatory dialogue, behavioral confidence, emotional transformation and practice for change in the intervention group compared with the control group after the intervention (P<0.001). In addition, significant reductions in the frequency of WPS (from 14.9% to 4.3%) were observed in the intervention group compared to the control group (P<0.001).

1061,30470466,The Effect of Foot Massage on Postoperative Pain and Anxiety Levels in Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy Surgery: A Randomized Controlled Experimental Study.,"PURPOSE
This study determined the effect of foot massage on postoperative pain and anxiety levels in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy surgery.
DESIGN
A randomized controlled trial.
METHODS
This study was conducted in a general surgery clinic of a university hospital between May 2016 and March 2018. The research sample consisted of 167 patients (85 in the experimental group and 82 in the control group) who met the research inclusion criteria.
FINDINGS
The pain intensity of patients in the experimental group was less than in the control group at 30, 60, 90, and 120 minutes after intervention (P < .05). A significant reduction was determined in the need for analgesics for the patients in the experimental group compared with the control group (P < .05). A significant positive relationship was found between pain intensity and state anxiety levels in patients of the experimental group.

1062,31748939,A Latent Class Analysis of HIV Risk Factors Among Men and Women with Opioid Use Disorder in Pre-trial Detention.,"Adults entering pre-trial detention who inject drugs are at high risk for acquiring HIV/AIDS. In the current study, we examined pre-incarceration HIV risk behaviors among 114 people with opioid use disorder who inject drugs. Participants were recruited from the Baltimore City Detention Center as part of a randomized controlled trial of pre-release methadone treatment. Using latent class analysis, we found three separate latent classes, which we identified as the sex exchange class (14.2%), drug equipment sharing class (36.8%) and lower risk class (49.0%). Women in the sex exchange class (n = 16) reported having multiple male partners and selling sex for money or drugs; however, this group also reported more consistent condom use and less frequent injection drug and equipment sharing than participants in the drug equipment sharing class.

1063,31748836,Conservative oxygen therapy for mechanically ventilated adults with sepsis: a post hoc analysis of data from the intensive care unit randomized trial comparing two approaches to oxygen therapy (ICU-ROX).,"PURPOSE
Sepsis is a common reason for intensive care unit (ICU) admission and mortality in ICU patients. Despite increasing interest in treatment strategies limiting oxygen exposure in ICU patients, no trials have compared conservative vs. usual oxygen in patients with sepsis.
METHODS
We undertook a post hoc analysis of the 251 patients with sepsis enrolled in a trial that compared conservative oxygen therapy with usual oxygen therapy in 1000 mechanically ventilated ICU patients. The primary end point for the current analysis was 90-day mortality. Key secondary outcomes were cause-specific mortality, ICU and hospital length of stay, ventilator-free days, vasopressor-free days, and the proportion of patients receiving renal replacement therapy in the ICU.
RESULTS
Patients with sepsis allocated to conservative oxygen therapy spent less time in the ICU with an SpO 2 ≥ 97% (23.5 h [interquartile range (IQR) 8-70] vs. 47 h [IQR 11-93], absolute difference, 23 h; 95% CI 8-38), and more time receiving an FiO 2 of 0.21 than patients allocated to usual oxygen therapy (20.5 h [IQR 1-79] vs. 0 h [IQR 0-10], absolute difference, 20 h; 95% CI 14-26). At 90-days, 47 of 130 patients (36.2%) assigned to conservative oxygen and 35 of 120 patients (29.2%) assigned to usual oxygen had died (absolute difference, 7 percentage points; 95% CI - 4.6 to 18.6% points; P = 0.24; interaction P = 0.35 for sepsis vs. non-sepsis). There were no statistically significant differences between groups for secondary outcomes but point estimates of treatment effects consistently favored usual oxygen therapy.
CONCLUSIONS
Point estimates for the treatment effect of conservative oxygen therapy on 90-day mortality raise the possibility of clinically important harm with this intervention in patients with sepsis; however, our post hoc analysis was not powered to detect the effects suggested and our data do not exclude clinically important benefit or harm from conservative oxygen therapy in this patient group.

1064,31141424,"Acute Effects of Hip Mobilization With Movement Technique on Pain and Biomechanics in Females With Patellofemoral Pain: A Randomized, Placebo-Controlled Trial.","CONTEXT
People with patellofemoral pain (PFP) present altered lower-limb movements during some activities. Perhaps, joint misalignment in the hip is one of the reasons for altered movement patterns in people with PFP. Some mobilization techniques have been designed to address joint misalignments.
OBJECTIVE
To investigate the acute effects of hip mobilization with movement (MWM) technique on pain and biomechanics during squats and jumps in females with and without PFP.
DESIGN
Randomized, placebo-controlled trial.
SETTING
Movement analysis laboratory.
PATIENTS
Fifty-six physically active females (28 with PFP and 28 asymptomatic) were divided into 4 groups: experimental group with PFP, sham group with PFP, experimental group without PFP, and sham group without PFP.
INTERVENTION(S)
The experimental groups received MWM for the hip, and the sham groups received sham mobilization.
MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES
Pain, trunk, and lower-limb kinematics, and hip and knee kinetics during single-leg squats and landings.
RESULTS
After the interventions, no difference between groups was found for pain. The PFP experimental group decreased hip internal rotation during squats compared with the PFP sham group (P = .03). There was no other significant difference between PFP groups for kinematic or kinetic outcomes during squats, as well as for any outcome during landings. There was no difference between asymptomatic groups for any of the outcomes in any of the tasks.
CONCLUSIONS
Hip mobilization was ineffective to reduce pain in people with PFP. Hip MWM may contribute to dynamic lower-limb realignment in females with PFP by decreasing hip internal rotation during squats. Therefore, hip MWM could be potentially useful as a complementary intervention for patients with PFP.",2019,The PFP experimental group decreased hip internal rotation during squats compared to the PFP sham group (p=0.03).,"['Females With Patellofemoral Pain', 'patients with PFP', 'people with PFP', 'People with patellofemoral pain (PFP', 'Fifty-six physically active females (28 with PFP and 28 asymptomatic) divided into four groups', 'pain and biomechanics during squats and jumps in females with and without PFP']","['placebo', 'PFP experimental and sham, and asymptomatic experimental and sham', 'Hip Mobilization With Movement Technique', 'Placebo', 'MWM', 'hip mobilization-with-movement (MWM) technique', 'Hip mobilization', 'sham mobilization']","['Pain and Biomechanics', 'hip internal rotation', 'Pain, trunk and lower limb kinematics, and hip and knee kinetics during single-leg squats and landings', 'pain']","[{'cui': 'C0086287', 'cui_str': 'Females'}, {'cui': 'C0030193', 'cui_str': 'Pain'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C0556453', 'cui_str': 'Physically active (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C0231221', 'cui_str': 'Asymptomatic (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C0332849', 'cui_str': 'Divide'}, {'cui': 'C0439745', 'cui_str': 'Grouped (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0241236', 'cui_str': 'Does squat (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C0560453', 'cui_str': 'Does jump (finding)'}]","[{'cui': 'C1696465', 'cui_str': 'placebo'}, {'cui': 'C0073980', 'cui_str': 'SHAM'}, {'cui': 'C0231221', 'cui_str': 'Asymptomatic (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C0019552', 'cui_str': 'Coxa'}, {'cui': 'C0300926', 'cui_str': 'mobilization'}, {'cui': 'C0026649', 'cui_str': 'Movement'}, {'cui': 'C0025664', 'cui_str': 'techniques'}]","[{'cui': 'C0030193', 'cui_str': 'Pain'}, {'cui': 'C0019552', 'cui_str': 'Coxa'}, {'cui': 'C0231459', 'cui_str': 'Medial rotation - action (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0460005', 'cui_str': 'Torso'}, {'cui': 'C0023216', 'cui_str': 'Membrum inferius'}, {'cui': 'C0600169', 'cui_str': 'Kinematics'}, {'cui': 'C1963703', 'cui_str': 'Knee region structure (body structure)'}, {'cui': 'C0022702', 'cui_str': 'Kinetics'}, {'cui': 'C0205171', 'cui_str': 'Singular (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0241236', 'cui_str': 'Does squat (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C0557668', 'cui_str': 'Landing (environment)'}]",56.0,0.177057,The PFP experimental group decreased hip internal rotation during squats compared to the PFP sham group (p=0.03).,"[{'ForeName': 'Guilherme S', 'Initials': 'GS', 'LastName': 'Nunes', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Débora Faria', 'Initials': 'DF', 'LastName': 'Wolf', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Daniel Augusto', 'Initials': 'DA', 'LastName': 'Dos Santos', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Marcos', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'de Noronha', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Fábio Viadanna', 'Initials': 'FV', 'LastName': 'Serrão', 'Affiliation': ''}]",Journal of sport rehabilitation,['10.1123/jsr.2018-0497']
1065,31117088,"Enarodustat, Conversion and Maintenance Therapy for Anemia in Hemodialysis Patients: A Randomized, Placebo-Controlled Phase 2b Trial Followed by Long-Term Trial.","BACKGROUND
Enarodustat (JTZ-951) is an orally available hypoxia-inducible factor prolyl hydroxylase inhibitor that increases endogenous erythropoietin levels in the treatment of anemia associated with chronic kidney disease (CKD).
OBJECTIVE
A phase 2b study of enarodustat to assess the hemoglobin (Hb) response, safety, and maintenance dosage was conducted in Japanese anemic patients with hemodialysis-dependent CKD.
METHODS
Subjects receiving a stable dose of an erythropoiesis-stimulating agent were randomized to receive once-daily enarodustat at a dose of 2, 4, or 6 mg or placebo in a double-blind manner for 6 weeks (Period 1) followed by 24-week open treatment with enarodustat, adjusted in the range of 2-8 mg to maintain Hb within a target range (10.0-12.0 g/dL; Period 2).
RESULTS
Change in Hb from baseline increased with enarodustat dose in Period 1. In Period 2, the proportion of subjects who maintained their Hb level within the target range at the end of treatment was 65.1%. To maintain Hb levels within the target range over the course of Period 2, approximately 80% of subjects required 2 dose adjustments or fewer. Enarodustat decreased hepcidin and ferritin levels, increased total iron-binding capacity, and was generally well tolerated.
CONCLUSIONS
Enarodustat corrected and maintained Hb levels in anemic patients with hemodialysis-dependent CKD. Phase 3 studies of enarodustat are currently ongoing.",2019,"Enarodustat decreased hepcidin and ferritin levels, increased total iron-binding capacity, and was generally well tolerated.

1066,30132262,Effect of metformin on blood pressure in patients with hypertension: a randomized clinical trial.,"OBJECTIVE
Part of the beneficial effects of metformin on the prevention of cardiovascular events in diabetes can be attributed to pleiotropic effects, including a blood pressure (BP)-lowering effect. In a double-blind parallel clinical trial (NCT02072382), the effect of metformin on BP evaluated by ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) was measured.
METHODS
Ninety-seven patients with hypertension, but without diabetes mellitus, were randomized to receive 850-1700 mg of metformin (n = 48) or placebo (n = 49). Clinical, laboratory, and ABPM data were collected at the baseline and after 8 weeks of follow-up.
RESULTS
The sample consisted mainly of White overweight women. There was no difference in BP reduction measured by ABPM between both groups. There was no effect in BP measured in the different periods of ABP monitoring and office BP. Additionally, fasting plasma glucose, lipids, and C-reactive protein remained unchanged during the trial. There was a significant reduction in waist circumference with metformin (95.1 ± 10.4 to 89.3 ± 27.4 cm; p = 0.02).

1067,31119849,The therapeutic relationship in Cognitive Behaviour Therapy with depressed adolescents: A qualitative study of good-outcome cases.,"OBJECTIVES
This paper aimed to explore client experiences of the therapeutic relationship among adolescents with good outcomes after receiving Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT) for moderate to severe depression.
DESIGN
This was a qualitative study employing Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA).
METHODS
As part of a randomized clinical trial, 77 adolescents with moderate to severe depression were interviewed using a semi-structured interview, which was audio-recorded. Five of these interviews, with adolescents aged 14-18 years who completed CBT and had good outcomes, were purposively sampled and analysed using IPA.
RESULTS
The findings indicated that a positive therapeutic relationship was fostered with therapists who respected the adolescents' autonomy and sense of individuality, while offering experiences of emotional closeness and connection. This was achieved by balancing the dual roles of being 'friendly' and affable, with being a 'professional expert' thereby embodying a collaborative and egalitarian approach.
CONCLUSIONS
The therapeutic relationship in CBT can help to motivate adolescents to engage with cognitively and emotionally challenging tasks. By providing an understanding of what helps and hinders the development of a positive therapeutic relationship, the current findings offer important insight into how therapists can foster positive relationships with depressed adolescents. This knowledge will make it more likely that adolescents will engage in the treatment process and in turn experience greater therapeutic gains.
PRACTITIONER POINTS

The purpose of this study was to compare effects of tablet-based interactive distraction (TBID; 1 minute preseparation) with oral midazolam (15 to 45 minutes of preseparation) on preoperative anxiety, emergence delirium, and postanesthesia length of stay in children, 4 to 12 years undergoing outpatient surgery.
DESIGN
Single-blinded prospective design with randomized assignment to TBID or oral midazolam group was conducted at a large pediatric hospital in southwestern United States.
METHODS
A total of 102 children and caregivers were enrolled. Outcome measures included anxiety scores at baseline, separation, and mask induction; postemergence delirium scores; caregiver ratings of child anxiety and satisfaction; and time from postanesthesia care unit arrival to discharge and posthospital behaviors.
FINDINGS
The TBID group demonstrated significantly lower anxiety at separation and mask induction (P < .001) and emergence delirium at 15 minutes postawakening (P = .001), were extubated earlier (P = .007), arrived to phase II earlier (P = .03), and discharged earlier (P = .0001).

1069,31145885,"Timing of postpartum etonogestrel-releasing implant insertion and bleeding patterns, weight change, 12-month continuation and satisfaction rates: a randomized controlled trial.","OBJECTIVES
To evaluate whether timing of etonogestrel (ENG) implant insertion during the postpartum period affects maternal bleeding patterns, body mass index (BMI) and 12-month satisfaction and continuation rates.
STUDY DESIGN
This is a secondary analysis of an open, randomized, controlled trial. Postpartum women were block-randomized to early (up to 48 h postpartum) or delayed (6 weeks postpartum) insertion of an ENG implant. Bleeding patterns and BMI were evaluated every 90 days for 12 months. At 12 months, we measured implant continuation rates and used Likert and face scales to measure users' satisfaction. The level of significance was 0.4% (adjusted by Bonferroni test for multiplicity).
RESULTS
We enrolled 100 postpartum women; we randomized 50 to early and 50 to delayed postpartum ENG implant insertion. Bleeding patterns were similar between groups. Amenorrhea rates were high in both groups during the follow-up (52%-56% and 46%-62% in the early and delayed insertion group, respectively). Prolonged bleeding episodes were unusual in both groups during the follow-up (0-2%). Maternal BMI was similar between groups and decreased over time. Twelve-month continuation rates were similar between groups (early insertion: 98% vs. delayed insertion: 100%, p=.99). Most participants were either very satisfied or satisfied with the ENG implant in both groups (p=.9).
CONCLUSION
Women who underwent immediate postpartum insertion of the ENG implant have similar bleeding patterns, BMI changes, and 12-month satisfaction and continuation rates compared to those who underwent delayed insertion.
IMPLICATIONS
Our results from a secondary analysis of a clinical trial support that satisfaction, continuation and bleeding patterns do not differ when women received contraceptive implants immediately postpartum or at 6 weeks. However, the emphasis on infant growth in the trial and easy access to delayed placement may have influenced results.",2019,"Twelve-month continuation rates were similar between groups (early insertion: 98% vs. delayed insertion: 100%, p=.99).",['We enrolled 100 postpartum women'],"['delayed postpartum ENG implant insertion', 'postpartum etonogestrel-releasing implant insertion', 'etonogestrel (ENG) implant insertion']","[""implant continuation rates and used Likert and face scales to measure users' satisfaction"", 'bleeding patterns, weight change, 12-month continuation and satisfaction rates', 'Amenorrhea rates', 'Maternal BMI', 'satisfaction, continuation and bleeding patterns', 'bleeding patterns, BMI changes, and 12-month satisfaction and continuation rates', 'Prolonged bleeding episodes', 'maternal bleeding patterns, body mass index (BMI) and 12-month satisfaction and continuation rates', 'Bleeding patterns and BMI', 'Bleeding patterns']","[{'cui': 'C1704407', 'cui_str': '100 (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0032804', 'cui_str': 'Postpartum Women'}]","[{'cui': 'C0086839', 'cui_str': 'Postpartum Period'}, {'cui': 'C2828363', 'cui_str': 'Implant'}, {'cui': 'C0441587', 'cui_str': 'Insertion - action'}, {'cui': 'C0047683', 'cui_str': 'Etonogestrel'}, {'cui': 'C1963578', 'cui_str': 'Release (procedure)'}]","[{'cui': 'C2828363', 'cui_str': 'Implant'}, {'cui': 'C0538263', 'cui_str': 'fatty acid 2-chloroethyl ester synthase'}, {'cui': 'C0222045'}, {'cui': 'C1879489', 'cui_str': 'Measures (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0242428', 'cui_str': 'Satisfaction'}, {'cui': 'C0019080', 'cui_str': 'Bleeding'}, {'cui': 'C0449774', 'cui_str': 'Patterns (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0005911', 'cui_str': 'Body Weight Changes'}, {'cui': 'C0439231', 'cui_str': 'month (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0002453', 'cui_str': 'Amenorrhea'}, {'cui': 'C0026591', 'cui_str': 'Mothers'}, {'cui': 'C0392747', 'cui_str': 'Altered (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0439590', 'cui_str': 'Prolonged (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0332189', 'cui_str': 'Episodes (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0005893', 'cui_str': 'Body mass index'}]",100.0,0.239124,"Twelve-month continuation rates were similar between groups (early insertion: 98% vs. delayed insertion: 100%, p=.99).","[{'ForeName': 'Carolina Sales', 'Initials': 'CS', 'LastName': 'Vieira', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Gynecology and Obstetrics, Medical School of Ribeirao Preto, University of São Paulo, Brazil.

1070,31129929,Biomarker guidance allows a more personalized allocation of patients for remote patient management in heart failure: results from the TIM-HF2 trial.,"AIMS
The TIM-HF2 study showed less days lost due to unplanned cardiovascular hospitalization or all-cause death and improved survival in patients randomly assigned to remote patient management (RPM) instead of standard of care.
METHODS AND RESULTS
This substudy explored whether the biomarkers mid-regional pro-adrenomedullin (MR-proADM) and N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) could be used to identify low-risk patients unlikely to benefit from RPM, thereby allowing more efficient allocation of the intervention. For 1538 patients of the trial (median age 73 years, interquartile range 64-78 years, 30% female), baseline biomarkers were used to select subpopulations recommended for RPM with various safety endpoints (100%, 98%, 95% sensitivity), and efficacy of RPM was assessed. Both biomarkers were strongly associated with events. The primary endpoint of lost days increased from 1.0% (1.4%) in the lowest to 17.3% (17.6%) in the highest quintile of NT-proBNP (MR-proADM). After combining biomarkers to identify patients recommended for RPM with 95% sensitivity, in the most efficient scenario (excluding 27% of patients; NT-proBNP < 413.7 pg/mL and MR-proADM < 0.75 nmol/L), the effect of RPM on patients was highly similar to the original trial (ratio of lost days: 0.78, hazard ratio for all-cause death: 0.68). Number needed to treat for all-cause death was lowered from 28 to 21. Rates of emergencies and telemedical efforts were significantly lower among patients not recommended for RPM. Biomarker guidance would have saved about 150 h effort/year per 100 patients of the eligible population.
CONCLUSIONS
The combined use of MR-proADM and NT-proBNP may allow safe, more precise, effective and cost-saving allocation of patients with heart failure to RPM and warrants further prospective studies.",2019,Rates of emergencies and telemedical efforts were significantly lower among patients not recommended for RPM.,"['1538 patients of the trial (median age 73\u2009years, interquartile range 64-78\u2009years, 30% female', 'patients for remote patient management in heart failure', 'patients with heart failure to RPM']","['biomarkers mid-regional pro-adrenomedullin (MR-proADM) and N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP', 'MR-proADM and NT-proBNP']","['efficacy of RPM', 'Rates of emergencies and telemedical efforts']","[{'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C2939193', 'cui_str': 'Median (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0001792', 'cui_str': 'Elderly'}, {'cui': 'C0439234', 'cui_str': 'year (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C3542016', 'cui_str': 'Range'}, {'cui': 'C0086287', 'cui_str': 'Females'}, {'cui': 'C0205157', 'cui_str': 'Remote (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0018801', 'cui_str': 'Cardiac Failure'}, {'cui': 'C0582523', 'cui_str': 'rpm'}]","[{'cui': 'C0005516', 'cui_str': 'Biological Markers'}, {'cui': 'C0444598', 'cui_str': 'Mid (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0205147', 'cui_str': 'Region (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0215825', 'cui_str': 'Adrenomedullin (1-52)'}, {'cui': 'C0754710', 'cui_str': 'Amino-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide'}, {'cui': 'C1963813', 'cui_str': 'NT-proBNP'}]","[{'cui': 'C0582523', 'cui_str': 'rpm'}, {'cui': 'C0175673', 'cui_str': 'Emergency (qualifier value)'}]",,0.110128,Rates of emergencies and telemedical efforts were significantly lower among patients not recommended for RPM.,"[{'ForeName': 'Martin', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Möckel', 'Affiliation': 'Division of Emergency and Acute Medicine, Cardiovascular Process Research, Campus Mitte and Virchow, Charité - Universitätsmedizin Berlin, Berlin, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Kerstin', 'Initials': 'K', 'LastName': 'Koehler', 'Affiliation': 'Centre for Cardiovascular Telemedicine, Department of Cardiology and Angiology, Campus Mitte, Charité - Universitätsmedizin Berlin, Berlin, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Stefan D', 'Initials': 'SD', 'LastName': 'Anker', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Cardiology (CVK) and Berlin Institute of Health, Center for Regenerative Therapies (BCRT), German Centre for Cardiovascular Research (DZHK) partner site Berlin Charité - Universitätsmedizin Berlin, Berlin, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Jörn', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Vollert', 'Affiliation': 'Clinical Diagnostics, Thermo Fisher Scientific, Hennigsdorf, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Volker', 'Initials': 'V', 'LastName': 'Moeller', 'Affiliation': 'Centre for Cardiovascular Telemedicine, Department of Cardiology and Angiology, Campus Mitte, Charité - Universitätsmedizin Berlin, Berlin, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Magdalena', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Koehler', 'Affiliation': 'Technical University Munich, Department of Prevention, Rehabilitation and Sports Medicine, Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität, Munich, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Stefan', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Gehrig', 'Affiliation': 'Clinical Diagnostics, Thermo Fisher Scientific, Hennigsdorf, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Jan C', 'Initials': 'JC', 'LastName': 'Wiemer', 'Affiliation': 'Clinical Diagnostics, Thermo Fisher Scientific, Hennigsdorf, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Stephan', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'von Haehling', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Cardiology and Pneumology, Universitätsmedizin Göttingen, Göttingen, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Friedrich', 'Initials': 'F', 'LastName': 'Koehler', 'Affiliation': 'Centre for Cardiovascular Telemedicine, Department of Cardiology and Angiology, Campus Mitte, Charité - Universitätsmedizin Berlin, Berlin, Germany.'}]",European journal of heart failure,['10.1002/ejhf.1530']
1071,28082323,Second Generation Electronic Nicotine Delivery System Vape Pen Exposure Generalizes as a Smoking Cue.,"Introduction
Second generation electronic nicotine delivery systems (ENDS; also known as e-cigarettes, vaporizers or vape pens) are designed for a customized nicotine delivery experience and have less resemblance to regular cigarettes than first generation ""cigalikes."" The present study examined whether they generalize as a conditioned cue and evoke smoking urges or behavior in persons exposed to their use.
Methods
Data were analyzed in N = 108 young adult smokers (≥5 cigarettes per week) randomized to either a traditional combustible cigarette smoking cue or a second generation ENDS vaping cue in a controlled laboratory setting. Cigarette and e-cigarette urge and desire were assessed pre- and post-cue exposure. Smoking behavior was also explored in a subsample undergoing a smoking latency phase after cue exposure (N = 26).
Results
The ENDS vape pen cue evoked both urge and desire for a regular cigarette to a similar extent as that produced by the combustible cigarette cue. Both cues produced similar time to initiate smoking during the smoking latency phase. The ENDS vape pen cue elicited smoking urge and desire regardless of ENDS use history, that is, across ENDS naїve, lifetime or current users. Inclusion of past ENDS or cigarette use as covariates did not significantly alter the results.
Conclusions
These findings demonstrate that observation of vape pen ENDS use generalizes as a conditioned cue to produce smoking urge, desire, and behavior in young adult smokers. As the popularity of these devices may eventually overtake those of first generation ENDS cigalikes, exposure effects will be of increasing importance.
Implications
This study shows that passive exposure to a second generation ENDS vape pen cue evoked smoking urge, desire, and behavior across a range of daily and non-daily young adult smokers. Smoking urge and desire increases after vape pen exposure were similar to those produced by exposure to a first generation ENDS cigalike and a combustible cigarette, a known potent cue. Given the increasing popularity of ENDS tank system products, passive exposures to these devices will no doubt increase, and may contribute to tobacco use in young adult smokers.",2018,"Smoking urge and desire increases after vape pen exposure were similar to those produced by exposure to a first generation ENDS cigalike and a combustible cigarette, a known potent cue.","['young adult smokers', 'subsample undergoing a smoking latency phase after cue exposure (N = 26', '108 young adult smokers (≥5 cigarettes per week) randomized to either a']","['Introduction\n\n\nSecond generation electronic nicotine delivery systems (ENDS', 'traditional combustible cigarette smoking cue or a second generation ENDS vaping cue']","['Cigarette and e-cigarette urge and desire', 'Smoking behavior']","[{'cui': 'C0238598', 'cui_str': 'Young Adult'}, {'cui': 'C0337664', 'cui_str': 'Smoker'}, {'cui': 'C0453996', 'cui_str': 'Tobacco Smoking'}, {'cui': 'C0585064', 'cui_str': 'Numerical phases (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0010439', 'cui_str': 'Cues'}, {'cui': 'C0274281', 'cui_str': 'Injury due to exposure to external cause (disorder)'}, {'cui': 'C4517530', 'cui_str': 'One hundred and eight'}, {'cui': 'C0677453', 'cui_str': 'Cigarette'}, {'cui': 'C0332174', 'cui_str': 'Weekly (qualifier value)'}]","[{'cui': 'C1293116', 'cui_str': 'Introduction'}, {'cui': 'C0457385', 'cui_str': 'Seconds (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0079411', 'cui_str': 'Generations'}, {'cui': 'C3849993', 'cui_str': 'Electronic Cigarettes'}, {'cui': 'C1272693', 'cui_str': 'Ended'}, {'cui': 'C0443324', 'cui_str': 'Traditional (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0700219', 'cui_str': 'Cigarette Smoking'}, {'cui': 'C0010439', 'cui_str': 'Cues'}, {'cui': 'C4083280', 'cui_str': 'Vaping'}]","[{'cui': 'C0677453', 'cui_str': 'Cigarette'}, {'cui': 'C3849993', 'cui_str': 'Electronic Cigarettes'}, {'cui': 'C1519383', 'cui_str': 'Smoking Behaviors'}]",108.0,0.00981272,"Smoking urge and desire increases after vape pen exposure were similar to those produced by exposure to a first generation ENDS cigalike and a combustible cigarette, a known potent cue.","[{'ForeName': 'Andrea C', 'Initials': 'AC', 'LastName': 'King', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Neuroscience, University of Chicago, Chicago IL.'}, {'ForeName': 'Lia J', 'Initials': 'LJ', 'LastName': 'Smith', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Neuroscience, University of Chicago, Chicago IL.'}, {'ForeName': 'Patrick J', 'Initials': 'PJ', 'LastName': 'McNamara', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Neuroscience, University of Chicago, Chicago IL.'}, {'ForeName': 'Dingcai', 'Initials': 'D', 'LastName': 'Cao', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Ophthalmology and Visual Sciences, University of Illinois at Chicago, Chicago IL.'}]",Nicotine & tobacco research : official journal of the Society for Research on Nicotine and Tobacco,['10.1093/ntr/ntw327']
1072,31748169,Long-term effects of intensive multifactorial therapy in individuals with screen-detected type 2 diabetes in primary care: 10-year follow-up of the ADDITION-Europe cluster-randomised trial.,"BACKGROUND
The multicentre, international ADDITION-Europe study investigated the effect of promoting intensive treatment of multiple risk factors among people with screen-detected type 2 diabetes over 5 years. Here we report the results of a post-hoc 10-year follow-up analysis of ADDITION-Europe to establish whether differences in treatment and cardiovascular risk factors have been maintained and to assess effects on cardiovascular outcomes.
METHODS
As previously described, general practices from four centres (Denmark, Cambridge [UK], Leicester [UK], and the Netherlands) were randomly assigned by computer-generated list to provide screening followed by routine care of diabetes, or screening followed by intensive multifactorial treatment. Population-based stepwise screening programmes among people aged 40-69 years (50-69 years in the Netherlands), between April, 2001, and December, 2006, identified patients with type 2 diabetes. Allocation was concealed from patients. Following the 5-year follow-up, no attempts were made to maintain differences in treatment between study groups. In this report, we did a post-hoc analysis of cardiovascular and renal outcomes over 10 years following randomisation, including a 5 years post-intervention follow-up. As in the original trial, the primary endpoint was a composite of first cardiovascular event, including cardiovascular mortality, cardiovascular morbidity (non-fatal myocardial infarction and non-fatal stroke), revascularisation, and non-traumatic amputation, up to Dec 31, 2014. Analyses were based on the intention-to-treat principle. ADDITION-Europe is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT00237549.
FINDINGS
343 general practices were randomly assigned to routine diabetes care (n=176) or intensive multifactorial treatment (n=167). 317 of these general practices (157 in the routine care group, 161 in the intensive treatment group) included eligible patients between April, 2001, and December, 2006. Of the 3233 individuals with screen-detected diabetes, 3057 agreed to participate (1379 in the routine care group, 1678 in the intensive treatment group), but at the 10-year follow-up 14 were lost to follow-up and 12 withdrew, leaving 3031 to enter 10-year follow-up analysis. Mean duration of follow-up was 9·61 years (SD 2·99). Sustained reductions over 10 years following diagnosis were apparent for bodyweight, HbA 1c , blood pressure, and cholesterol in both study groups, but between-group differences identified at 1 and 5 years were attenuated at the 10-year follow-up. By 10 years, 443 participants had a first cardiovascular event and 465 died. There was no significant difference between groups in the incidence of the primary composite outcome (16·1 per 1000 person-years in the routine care group vs 14·3 per 1000 person-years in the intensive treatment group; hazard ratio [HR] 0·87, 95% CI 0·73-1·04; p=0·14) or all-cause mortality (15·6 vs 14·3 per 1000 person-years; HR 0·90, 0·76-1·07).
INTERPRETATION
Sustained reductions in glycaemia and related cardiovascular risk factors over 10 years among people with screen-detected diabetes managed in primary care are achievable. The differences in prescribed treatment and cardiovascular risk factors in the 5 years following diagnosis were not maintained at 10 years, and the difference in cardiovascular events and mortality remained non-significant.

Compare rates of initial extubation success in preterm infants extubated to NIPPV or NI-NAVA.
STUDY DESIGN
In this pilot study, we randomized 30 mechanically ventilated preterm infants at the time of initial elective extubation to NI-NAVA or NIPPV in a 1:1 assignment. Primary study outcome was initial extubation success.
RESULTS
Rates of continuous extubation for 120 h were 92% in the NI-NAVA group and 69% in the NIPPV group (12/13 vs. 9/13, respectively, p = 0.14). Infants extubated to NI-NAVA remained extubated longer (median 18 vs. 4 days, p = 0.02) and experienced lower peak inspiratory pressures (PIP) than infants managed with NIPPV throughout the first 3 days after extubation. Survival analysis through 14 days post extubation showed a sustained difference in the primary study outcome until 12 days post extubation.
CONCLUSIONS
Our study is the first to suggest that a strategy of extubating preterm infants to NI-NAVA may be more successful.",2020,"Survival analysis through 14 days post extubation showed a sustained difference in the primary study outcome until 12 days post extubation.

1075,31702415,Participant-level characteristics differ by recruitment setting when evaluating a behavioral intervention targeting adolescents with asthma.,"Objective: The recruitment setting plays a key role in the evaluation of behavioral interventions. We evaluated a behavioral intervention for urban adolescents with asthma in three randomized trials conducted separately in three different settings over the course of 8 years. We hypothesized that characteristics of trial participants recruited from the ED and clinic settings would be significantly different from that of youth participating in the school-based trials. The intervention evaluated was Puff City, a web-based program that uses tailoring to improve asthma management behaviors. Methods: The present analysis includes youth aged 13-19 years who reported a physician diagnosis of asthma and symptoms at trial baseline. In the three trials, all participants were randomized post-baseline to a web-based, tailored intervention (treatment) or generic web-based asthma education (control). Results: Compared to school-based trial participants, ED participants had significantly more acute-care visits for asthma ( p < 0.001) and more caregiver depression ( p < 0.001). Clinic-based participants were more likely to have computer/ internet access than participants from the school-based trial ( p < 0.001). Both ED and clinic participants were more likely to report controller medication ( p 's < 0.001) and higher teen emotional support ( p 's < 0.01) when compared to the schools, but were less likely to report Medicaid ( p 's < 0.014) and exposure to environmental tobacco smoke ( p < 0.001).

1076,31096099,High versus low mean arterial pressures in hepatorenal syndrome: A randomized controlled pilot trial.,"There is controversy regarding the mean arterial pressure (MAP) goals that should be targeted in the treatment of hepatorenal syndrome (HRS.) We conducted a study to assess different MAP targets in HRS in the intensive care unit (ICU).
MATERIALS AND METHODS
This is a prospective randomized controlled pilot trial. ICU patients had target mean arterial pressure (MAP) ≥ 85 mmHg (control arm) or 65-70 mmHg (study arm). Urine output and serum creatinine were trended and recorded.
RESULTS
A total of 18 patients were enrolled. The day four urine output in the high and low MAP group was 1194 (SD = 1249) mL/24 h and 920 (SD = 812) mL/24 h, respectively. The difference in day four - day one urine output was -689 (SD = 1684) mL/24 h and 272 (SD = 582) mL/24 h for the high and low MAP groups. The difference in serum creatinine at day four - day one was -0.54 (SD = 0.63) mg/dL and - 0.77 (SD = 1.14) mg/dL in the high and low MAP groups, respectively.
CONCLUSION
In this study, we failed to prove non-inferiority between a low and high target MAP in patients with HRS.

1077,30920584,Comparison of intra-procedural vs. post-stenting prolonged bivalirudin infusion for residual thrombus burden in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction undergoing: the MATRIX (Minimizing Adverse Haemorrhagic Events by TRansradial Access Site and angioX) OCT study.,"AIMS
To compare prolonged bivalirudin infusion vs. an intra-procedural only bivalirudin infusion administration in subjects with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) regarding residual stent strut thrombosis.
METHODS AND RESULTS
Multivessel STEMI patients undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI) and scheduled for a staged percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) before hospital discharge were selected among those allocated to either prolonged bivalirudin or intra-procedural only bivalirudin infusion in the MATRIX (Minimizing Adverse Haemorrhagic Events by TRansradial Access Site and angioX) Treatment-Duration study. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) of the infarct-related artery was performed at the end of PPCI and 4-5 days thereafter during staged intervention. The predefined endpoint was the percentage difference in the number of stent cross-sections with a thrombotic area >5% at the end of PPCI and at the time of staged PCI (ΔThCS). Between September 2013 and November 2015, 137 were randomized to either intra-procedural only bivalirudin infusion (N = 64) or prolonged bivalirudin (N = 73) at 16 European sites. Mean stent area, minimum lumen area, percentage of malapposed struts, and mean percent thrombotic area were comparable after index or staged PCI. The difference in the proportion of frames with percent thrombotic area >5% (ΔTh > 5%) were -7.7 (-22.1 to 5.1) in the intra-procedural bivalirudin infusion group and -8.8 (-23.1 to 2.6) in the prolonged infusion group (P = 0.994). Time from index to follow-up OCT imaging and the infarct vessel artery did not affect this OCT-based endpoint.
CONCLUSION
A strategy of prolonged bivalirudin infusion after PPCI did not reduce residual stent strut thrombosis when compared with intra-procedural only bivalirudin infusion administration (funded by The Medicines Company and Terumo; MATRIX ClinicalTrials.gov number, NCT01433627).",2019,"A strategy of prolonged bivalirudin infusion after PPCI did not reduce residual stent strut thrombosis when compared with intra-procedural only bivalirudin infusion administration (funded by The Medicines Company and Terumo;

1079,31687845,Considering abuse liability and neurocognitive effects of cannabis and cannabis-derived products when assessing analgesic efficacy: a comprehensive review of randomized-controlled studies.,"Background : Pain is the most frequent indication for which medical cannabis treatment is sought. Objectives : The clinical potential of cannabis and cannabis-derived products (CDPs) relies on their efficacy to treat an indication and potential adverse effects that impact outcomes, including abuse liability and neurocognitive effects. To ascertain the extent to which these effects impact therapeutic utility, studies investigating cannabis and CDPs for pain were reviewed for analgesic efficacy and assessments of abuse liability and neurocognitive effects. Methods : A comprehensive review of placebo-controlled studies investigating cannabis and CDP analgesia was performed. Methods and findings related to adverse effects, abuse liability, and neurocognitive effects were extracted. Results : Thirty-eight studies were reviewed; 29 assessed cannabis and CDPs for chronic pain, 1 for acute pain, and 8 used experimental pain tests. Most studies ascertained adverse effects through self-report (N = 27). Fewer studies specifically probed abuse liability (N = 7) and cognitive and psychomotor effects (N = 12). Many studies related to chronic and experimental pain (N = 18 and N = 5, respectively) found cannabis and CDPs to reduce pain. Overall, adverse effects were mild to moderate, and dose-related. Studies investigating the impact of cannabis and CDPs on abuse liability and neurocognitive endpoints were mostly limited to inhaled administration and confirmed dose-related effects. Conclusion : Few studies investigating cannabis and CDP analgesia assess abuse liability and cognitive endpoints, adverse effects that impact the long-term clinical utility of these drugs. Future studies should include these measures to optimize research and clinical care related to cannabis-based therapeutics.",2019,"Overall, adverse effects were mild to moderate, and dose-related.","['Thirty-eight studies were reviewed; 29 assessed cannabis and CDPs for chronic pain, 1 for acute pain, and 8 used experimental pain tests']","['cannabis and cannabis-derived products', 'cannabis and cannabis-derived products (CDPs', ' ', 'placebo']","['analgesic efficacy', 'adverse effects, abuse liability, and neurocognitive effects', 'cognitive and psychomotor effects', 'abuse liability and neurocognitive endpoints', 'Pain', 'adverse effects']","[{'cui': 'C0450361', 'cui_str': '38 (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0557651', 'cui_str': 'Study (environment)'}, {'cui': 'C0282443', 'cui_str': 'Review'}, {'cui': 'C0678449', 'cui_str': 'Cannabis'}, {'cui': 'C0150055', 'cui_str': 'Chronic pain (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C0184567', 'cui_str': 'Acute Pain'}, {'cui': 'C0030193', 'cui_str': 'Pain'}, {'cui': 'C0392366', 'cui_str': 'Tests (qualifier value)'}]","[{'cui': 'C0678449', 'cui_str': 'Cannabis'}, {'cui': 'C1696465', 'cui_str': 'placebo'}]","[{'cui': 'C0002771', 'cui_str': 'Analgesic Drugs'}, {'cui': 'C0001688', 'cui_str': 'side effects'}, {'cui': 'C1546935', 'cui_str': 'Abuse (event)'}, {'cui': 'C1280500', 'cui_str': 'Effect (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0030193', 'cui_str': 'Pain'}]",,0.0991028,"Overall, adverse effects were mild to moderate, and dose-related.","[{'ForeName': 'Ziva D', 'Initials': 'ZD', 'LastName': 'Cooper', 'Affiliation': 'UCLA Cannabis Research Initiative, Jane and Terry Semel Institute for Neuroscience and Human Behavior, Department of Psychiatry and Biobehavioral Science, University of California, Los Angeles, CA, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Donald I', 'Initials': 'DI', 'LastName': 'Abrams', 'Affiliation': 'Divison of Oncology, Department of Medicine, Zuckerberg San Francisco General, University of California San Francisco, San Francisco, CA, USA.'}]",The American journal of drug and alcohol abuse,['10.1080/00952990.2019.1669628']
1080,31609772,Early Palliative Care Consultation in the Medical ICU: A Cluster Randomized Crossover Trial.,"OBJECTIVES
To assess the impact of early triggered palliative care consultation on the outcomes of high-risk ICU patients.
DESIGN
Single-center cluster randomized crossover trial.
SETTING
Two medical ICUs at Barnes Jewish Hospital.
PATIENTS
Patients (n = 199) admitted to the medical ICUs from August 2017 to May 2018 with a positive palliative care screen indicating high risk for morbidity or mortality.
INTERVENTIONS
The medical ICUs were randomized to intervention or usual care followed by washout and crossover, with independent assignment of patients to each ICU at admission. Intervention arm patients received a palliative care consultation from an interprofessional team led by board-certified palliative care providers within 48 hours of ICU admission.
MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS
Ninety-seven patients (48.7%) were assigned to the intervention and 102 (51.3%) to usual care. Transition to do-not-resuscitate/do-not-intubate occurred earlier and significantly more often in the intervention group than the control group (50.5% vs 23.4%; p < 0.0001). The intervention group had significantly more transfers to hospice care (18.6% vs 4.9%; p < 0.01) with fewer ventilator days (median 4 vs 6 d; p < 0.05), tracheostomies performed (1% vs 7.8%; p < 0.05), and postdischarge emergency department visits and/or readmissions (17.3% vs 38.9%; p < 0.01). Although total operating cost was not significantly different, medical ICU (p < 0.01) and pharmacy (p < 0.05) operating costs were significantly lower in the intervention group. There was no significant difference in ICU length of stay (median 5 vs 5.5 d), hospital length of stay (median 10 vs 11 d), in-hospital mortality (22.6% vs 29.4%), or 30-day mortality between groups (35.1% vs 36.3%) (p > 0.05).
CONCLUSIONS
Early triggered palliative care consultation was associated with greater transition to do-not-resuscitate/do-not-intubate and to hospice care, as well as decreased ICU and post-ICU healthcare resource utilization. Our study suggests that routine palliative care consultation may positively impact the care of high risk, critically ill patients.",2019,"Although total operating cost was not significantly different, medical ICU (p < 0.01) and pharmacy (p < 0.05) operating costs were significantly lower in the intervention group.","['high-risk ICU patients', 'Two medical ICUs at Barnes Jewish Hospital', 'Patients (n = 199) admitted to the medical ICUs from August 2017 to May 2018 with a positive palliative care screen indicating high risk for morbidity or mortality']",['palliative care consultation from an interprofessional team led by board-certified palliative care providers'],"['ICU length of stay', 'postdischarge emergency department visits and/or readmissions', 'total operating cost', 'hospital mortality', 'transfers to hospice care', 'hospital length of stay', '30-day mortality', 'medical ICU', 'operating costs']","[{'cui': 'C4319571', 'cui_str': 'High risk (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0021708', 'cui_str': 'Intensive care unit (environment)'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C0205476', 'cui_str': 'Medical (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0178443', 'cui_str': 'Jewish, follower of religion (person)'}, {'cui': 'C1510665', 'cui_str': 'Hospital environment (environment)'}, {'cui': 'C1446409', 'cui_str': 'Positive (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0700049', 'cui_str': 'Palliative care'}, {'cui': 'C1305399', 'cui_str': 'Screening intent'}, {'cui': 'C1444656', 'cui_str': 'Indicated'}, {'cui': 'C0026538', 'cui_str': 'Morbidity'}, {'cui': 'C0026566', 'cui_str': 'mortality'}]","[{'cui': 'C0700049', 'cui_str': 'Palliative care'}, {'cui': 'C0009818', 'cui_str': 'Consultation'}, {'cui': 'C0023175', 'cui_str': 'Lead'}]","[{'cui': 'C0021708', 'cui_str': 'Intensive care unit (environment)'}, {'cui': 'C0023303', 'cui_str': 'Length of Stay'}, {'cui': 'C0562508', 'cui_str': 'Emergency Room'}, {'cui': 'C0439810', 'cui_str': 'Total (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0010186', 'cui_str': 'Cost'}, {'cui': 'C0085556', 'cui_str': 'Mortalities, In-house'}, {'cui': 'C0040671', 'cui_str': 'Transfer'}, {'cui': 'C0085555', 'cui_str': 'Hospice Care'}, {'cui': 'C1510665', 'cui_str': 'Hospital environment (environment)'}, {'cui': 'C0439228', 'cui_str': 'day (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0026566', 'cui_str': 'mortality'}, {'cui': 'C0205476', 'cui_str': 'Medical (qualifier value)'}]",97.0,0.0982293,"Although total operating cost was not significantly different, medical ICU (p < 0.01) and pharmacy (p < 0.05) operating costs were significantly lower in the intervention group.","[{'ForeName': 'Jessica', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Ma', 'Affiliation': 'Duke Palliative Care, Department of Medicine, Duke University and Health System, Durham, NC.'}, {'ForeName': 'Stephen', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Chi', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Medicine, Washington University School of Medicine, St. Louis, MO.'}, {'ForeName': 'Benjamin', 'Initials': 'B', 'LastName': 'Buettner', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Medicine, Washington University School of Medicine, St. Louis, MO.'}, {'ForeName': 'Katherine', 'Initials': 'K', 'LastName': 'Pollard', 'Affiliation': 'Division of Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine, Washington University School of Medicine, St. Louis, MO.'}, {'ForeName': 'Monica', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Muir', 'Affiliation': 'Division of Palliative Medicine, Washington University School of Medicine, St. Louis, MO.'}, {'ForeName': 'Charu', 'Initials': 'C', 'LastName': 'Kolekar', 'Affiliation': 'Division of Palliative Medicine, Washington University School of Medicine, St. Louis, MO.'}, {'ForeName': 'Noor', 'Initials': 'N', 'LastName': 'Al-Hammadi', 'Affiliation': 'Division of Biostatistics, Department of Medicine, Washington University School of Medicine, St. Louis, MO.'}, {'ForeName': 'Ling', 'Initials': 'L', 'LastName': 'Chen', 'Affiliation': 'Division of Biostatistics, Department of Medicine, Washington University School of Medicine, St. Louis, MO.'}, {'ForeName': 'Marin', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Kollef', 'Affiliation': 'Division of Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine, Washington University School of Medicine, St. Louis, MO.'}, {'ForeName': 'Maria', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Dans', 'Affiliation': 'Division of Palliative Medicine, Washington University School of Medicine, St. Louis, MO.'}]",Critical care medicine,['10.1097/CCM.0000000000004016']

1082,31747009,INTELLANCE 2/EORTC 1410 randomized phase II study of Depatux-M alone and with temozolomide vs temozolomide or lomustine in recurrent EGFR amplified glioblastoma.,"BACKGROUND
Depatuxizumab mafodotin (Depatux-M) is a tumor-specific antibody-drug conjugate consisting of an antibody (ABT-806) directed against activated epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and the toxin monomethylauristatin-F. We investigated Depatux-M in combination with temozolomide or as a single agent in a randomized controlled phase II trial in recurrent EGFR amplified glioblastoma.
METHODS
Eligible were patients with centrally confirmed EGFR amplified glioblastoma at first recurrence after chemo-irradiation with temozolomide. Patients were randomized to either Depatux-M 1.25 mg/kg every 2 weeks intravenously, or this treatment combined with temozolomide 150-200 mg/m2 day 1-5 every 4 weeks, or either lomustine or temozolomide. The primary endpoint of the study was overall survival.
RESULTS
Two hundred sixty patients were randomized. In the primary efficacy analysis with 199 events (median follow-up 15.0 mo), the hazard ratio (HR) for the combination arm compared with the control arm was 0.71 (95% CI = 0.50, 1.02; P = 0.062). The efficacy of Depatux-M monotherapy was comparable to that of the control arm (HR = 1.04, 95% CI = 0.73, 1.48; P = 0.83). The most frequent toxicity in Depatux-M treated patients was a reversible corneal epitheliopathy, occurring as grades 3-4 adverse events in 25-30% of patients. In the long-term follow-up analysis with median follow-up of 28.7 months, the HR for the comparison of the combination arm versus the control arm was 0.66 (95% CI = 0.48, 0.93).
CONCLUSION
This trial suggests a possible role for the use of Depatux-M in combination with temozolomide in EGFR amplified recurrent glioblastoma, especially in patients relapsing well after the end of first-line adjuvant temozolomide treatment. (NCT02343406).",2020,"The efficacy of Depatux-M monotherapy was comparable to that of the control arm (HR =1.04, 95%CI","['Eligible were patients with centrally confirmed EGFR amplified glioblastoma

1083,31567351,Ramelteon for Prevention of Postoperative Delirium: A Randomized Controlled Trial in Patients Undergoing Elective Pulmonary Thromboendarterectomy.,"OBJECTIVES
To assess the efficacy of ramelteon in preventing delirium, an acute neuropsychiatric condition associated with increased morbidity and mortality, in the perioperative, ICU setting.
DESIGN
Parallel-arm, randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled trial.
SETTING
Academic medical center in La Jolla, California.
PATIENTS
Patients greater than or equal to 18 years undergoing elective pulmonary thromboendarterectomy.
INTERVENTIONS
Ramelteon 8 mg or matching placebo starting the night prior to surgery and for a maximum of six nights while in the ICU.
MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS
Incident delirium was measured twice daily using the Confusion Assessment Method-ICU. The safety outcome was coma-free days assessed by the Richmond Agitation-Sedation Scale. One-hundred twenty participants were enrolled and analysis completed in 117. Delirium occurred in 22 of 58 patients allocated to placebo versus 19 of 59 allocated to ramelteon (relative risk, 0.8; 95% CI, 0.5-1.4; p = 0.516). Delirium duration, as assessed by the number of delirium-free days was also similar in both groups (placebo median 2 d [interquartile range, 2-3 d] vs ramelteon 3 d [2-5 d]; p = 0.181). Coma-free days was also similar between groups (placebo median 2 d [interquartile range, 1-3 d] vs ramelteon 3 d [2-4 d]; p = 0.210). We found no difference in ICU length of stay (median 4 d [interquartile range, 3-5 d] vs 4 d [3-6 d]; p = 0.349), or in-hospital mortality (four vs three deaths; relative risk ratio, 0.7; 95% CI, 0.2-3.2; p = 0.717), all placebo versus ramelteon, respectively.

1084,31712735,Early symptoms and sensations as predictors of lung cancer: a machine learning multivariate model.,"The aim of this study was to identify a combination of early predictive symptoms/sensations attributable to primary lung cancer (LC). An interactive e-questionnaire comprised of pre-diagnostic descriptors of first symptoms/sensations was administered to patients referred for suspected LC. Respondents were included in the present analysis only if they later received a primary LC diagnosis or had no cancer; and inclusion of each descriptor required ≥4 observations. Fully-completed data from 506/670 individuals later diagnosed with primary LC (n = 311) or no cancer (n = 195) were modelled with orthogonal projections to latent structures (OPLS). After analysing 145/285 descriptors, meeting inclusion criteria, through randomised seven-fold cross-validation (six-fold training set: n = 433; test set: n = 73), 63 provided best LC prediction. The most-significant LC-positive descriptors included a cough that varied over the day, back pain/aches/discomfort, early satiety, appetite loss, and having less strength. Upon combining the descriptors with the background variables current smoking, a cold/flu or pneumonia within the past two years, female sex, older age, a history of COPD (positive LC-association); antibiotics within the past two years, and a history of pneumonia (negative LC-association); the resulting 70-variable model had accurate cross-validated test set performance: area under the ROC curve = 0.767 (descriptors only: 0.736/background predictors only: 0.652), sensitivity = 84.8% (73.9/76.1%, respectively), specificity = 55.6% (66.7/51.9%, respectively).

1085,31712574,Early stimulation of the left posterior parietal cortex promotes representation change in problem solving.,"When you suddenly understand how to solve a problem through an original and efficient strategy, you experience the so-called ""Eureka"" effect. The appearance of insight usually occurs after setting the problem aside for a brief period of time (i.e. incubation), thereby promoting unconscious and novel associations on problem-related representations leading to a new and efficient solving strategy. The left posterior parietal cortex (lPPC) has been showed to support insight in problem solving, when this region is activated during the initial representations of the task. The PPC is further activated during the next incubation period when the mind starts to wander. The aim of this study was to investigate whether stimulating the lPPC, either during the initial training on the problem or the incubation period, might enhance representation change in problem solving. To address this question, participants performed the Number Reduction Task (NRT, convergent problem-solving), while excitatory or sham (placebo) transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) was applied over the lPPC. The stimulation was delivered either during the initial problem representation or during the subsequent incubation period. Impressively, almost all participants (94%) with excitatory tDCS during the initial training gained representational change in problem solving, compared to only 39% in the incubation period and 33% in the sham groups. We conclude that the lPPC plays a role during the initial problem representation, which may be considerably strengthened by means of short brain stimulation.",2019,"The left posterior parietal cortex (lPPC) has been showed to support insight in problem solving, when this region is activated during the initial representations of the task.",[],"['Number Reduction Task (NRT, convergent problem-solving), while excitatory or sham (placebo) transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS']",[],[],"[{'cui': 'C0237753', 'cui_str': 'Number (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C4551656', 'cui_str': 'Surgical reduction'}, {'cui': 'C3669643', 'cui_str': 'Problem solving (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0073980', 'cui_str': 'SHAM'}, {'cui': 'C3850024', 'cui_str': 'tDCS'}]",[],,0.0231378,"The left posterior parietal cortex (lPPC) has been showed to support insight in problem solving, when this region is activated during the initial representations of the task.","[{'ForeName': 'Ursula', 'Initials': 'U', 'LastName': 'Debarnot', 'Affiliation': 'Inter-University Laboratory of Human Movement Biology-EA 7424, University of Lyon, University Claude Bernard Lyon 1, Villeurbanne, France.

1086,31035187,"Effect of physostigmine on recovery from septic shock following intra-abdominal infection - Results from a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, monocentric pilot trial (Anticholium® per Se).","PURPOSE
The cholinergic anti-inflammatory pathway has been shown to be accessible by physostigmine salicylate in animal models. However, the cholinesterase inhibitor is not approved for adjunctive therapy in sepsis, and tolerability and safety of high initial doses followed by continuous infusion have not been investigated.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
In this trial, 20 patients with perioperative septic shock due to intra-abdominal infection were eligible. The physostigmine group received an initial dose of 0.04 mg/kg physostigmine salicylate, followed by continuous infusion of 1 mg/h for 120 h; the placebo group was treated with 0.9% sodium chloride. Primary outcome was the mean Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) score during treatment and up to 14 days.
RESULTS
Administration of physostigmine salicylate was well tolerated. Mean SOFA scores were 8.9 ± 2.5 and 11.3 ± 3.6 (mean ± SD) for physostigmine and placebo group, respectively. Adjusted for age, difference between means was not statistically significant (-2.37, 95% CI: -5.43 to 0.70, p = 0.121). Norepinephrine doses required only appeared lower in the physostigmine group (p = 0.064), along with a more rapid reduction from an elevated heart rate possibly indicating less hemodynamic instability.
CONCLUSIONS
Treatment with physostigmine salicylate was feasible and safe. Further studies are justified to assess the effect on recovery from septic shock.

1087,31103533,Clustered randomized controlled trial of a clinic-based problem-solving intervention to improve adherence in adolescents with cystic fibrosis.,"BACKGROUND
In Cystic Fibrosis (CF), adherence to pulmonary medications is about 50% and decreases during adolescence. Effective interventions have not been integrated into CF care. This effectiveness study tested a brief, clinic-based behavioral intervention to improve adherence.
METHODS
iCARE (I Change Adherence and Raise Expectations) was a pragmatic, clustered, 2-arm randomized controlled trial at 18 CF Centers. 607 adolescents with CF, ages 11-20 years, participated. Centers were randomized to IMPACT (n = 9; 300 adolescents), a brief problem-solving + education intervention, or standard care (SC; n = 9; 307 adolescents). IMPACT was delivered during a regularly scheduled clinic visit by a member of the clinical care team. The primary outcome was composite pulmonary medication possession ratio (cMPR); secondary endpoints were lung function, Body Mass Index percentile, courses of IV antibiotics, and health-related quality of life at 12 months.
RESULTS
Effectiveness of the intervention was tested using mixed models, generalized estimating equations comparing IMPACT to SC. Fifty-eight percent of problem-solving sessions targeted barriers to airway clearance, exercise or nutrition, while 18% addressed pulmonary medications. Average intervention fidelity score was 67% (SD = 14%; Range = 25-100%). No significant intervention effects were found for cMPR or any of the secondary outcomes compared to SC.
CONCLUSIONS
The IMPACT intervention did not improve medication adherence or health outcomes over 12 months. Challenges to implementing the intervention as intended during busy clinic visits were identified.

Thirty male and female patients diagnosed with GAD and had vitamin D deficiency were recruited from the psychiatric clinic at King Abdulaziz University Hospital and divided into two groups; one group of patients (n = 15) received standard of care (SOC) plus 50,000 IU vitamin D (once/week) for 3 months, while the other group (n = 15) received SOC alone. Biochemical parameters including serum vitamin D, serotonin, neopterin and kynurenine were measured for all patients enrolled in the trial. In addition, the Generalized Anxiety Disorder 7-item (GAD-7) scale was used to measure the severity of GAD symptoms in both vitamin D treated- and untreated-patients. Significant improvements in GAD scores were observed in the vitamin D-treated group compared to the group that did not receive vitamin D. In addition, serum serotonin concentrations were significantly increased while serum neopterin were significantly decreased in vitamin D-treated vs. untreated patients. In contrast, no significant differences were found in serum kynurenine concentrations at the end of the study period between the two groups. No changes either in GAD-7 scores or in any of the biochemical measurements were observed in the group that received only SOC after 3 months.

1089,31082669,Radium-223 in combination with docetaxel in patients with castration-resistant prostate cancer and bone metastases: a phase 1 dose escalation/randomised phase 2a trial.,"PURPOSE
Radium 223 dichloride (radium-223) is an alpha particle-emitting bone-directed therapy that prolongs overall survival in men with bone-predominant metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). Docetaxel is an antimicrotubule cytotoxic agent that improves survival in mCRPC. We investigated whether combining these potentially cross-sensitising agents to dually target tumour and bone would be safe and effective.
PATIENTS AND METHODS
Phase 1 was a dose escalation study to define a recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of docetaxel and radium-223. In phase 2a, patients were randomised 2:1 to the recommended combination regimen or docetaxel at a dose of 75 mg/m 2 every 3 weeks (q3w). Patients with bone-predominant mCRPC were eligible. End-points were safety, efficacy and treatment-related changes in serum and imaging biomarkers.
RESULTS
Twenty patients were enrolled in phase 1; 53 patients were randomised in phase 2a: 36 to combination treatment and 17 to docetaxel alone. The RP2D for the combination was radium-223 55 kBq/kg every six weeks × 5 doses, plus docetaxel 60 mg/m 2 q3w × 10 doses. Febrile neutropenia was dose limiting. A higher rate of febrile neutropenia was seen in the docetaxel monotherapy arm (15% vs 0%); the safety profile of the treatment groups was otherwise similar. The combination arm had more durable suppression of prostate-specific antigen (median time to progression, 6.6 vs 4.8 months, respectively), alkaline phosphatase (9 vs 7 months) and osteoblastic bone deposition markers.
CONCLUSIONS
Radium-223 in combination with docetaxel at the RP2D was well tolerated. Exploratory efficacy data suggested enhanced antitumour activity for the combination relative to docetaxel alone. Comparative studies with end-points of clinical benefit are warranted.

1090,31059974,Prognostic role of serum thymidine kinase 1 activity in patients with hormone receptor-positive metastatic breast cancer: Analysis of the randomised phase III Evaluation of Faslodex versus Exemestane Clinical Trial (EFECT).,"BACKGROUND
Thymidine kinase 1 (TK1) plays a critical role in DNA synthesis and cell proliferation. Recent studies have shown potential for serum TK1 activity (sTKa) as a prognostic marker and indicator of early response to endocrine therapy in advanced breast cancer. The aim of this study is to assess the correlation between sTKa and patient outcome.
PATIENTS AND METHODS
The Evaluation of Faslodex versus Exemestane Clinical Trial (EFECT) was a double-blind, double-dummy, randomised trial of fulvestrant versus exemestane after progression on non-steroidal aromatase inhibitor therapy, in postmenopausal women with advanced breast cancer. Retrospective analyses of serum archived from EFECT were conducted. sTKa was assessed using the DiviTum® assay on samples collected at baseline, after three and six months of endocrine therapy, and at disease progression.
RESULTS
The median time to progression (mTTP) for patients with low baseline sTKa levels was 5.03 months (95% confidence interval [CI]: 3.91-5.89) versus 2.57 months (95% CI: 2.04-3.52) in patients with high sTKa baseline levels (P < 0.0001). On treatment, patients whose sTKa increased from baseline had a significantly shorter mTTP (3.39 months, 95% CI: 2.14-4.11) than those without an sTKa increase (5.39 months, 95% CI: 4.01-6.68) (P = 0.0045). Similar results were observed in the separate EFECT treatment arms. After adjusting for major prognostic factors, sTKa remained an independent marker.
CONCLUSION

1091,31655810,"A Phase 3 Multicenter, Prospective, Open-Label Efficacy and Safety Study of Immune Globulin (Human) 10% Caprylate/Chromatography Purified in Patients with Myasthenia Gravis Exacerbations.","BACKGROUND
Myasthenia gravis (MG) is an autoimmune disorder affecting neuromuscular transmission. Exacerbations may involve increasing bulbar weakness and/or sudden respiratory failure, both of which can be critically disabling. Management of MG exacerbations includes plasma exchange and intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG); they are equally effective, but patients experience fewer side effects with IVIG. The objective of this study was to assess the efficacy and safety of immune globulin caprylate/chromatography purified (IGIV-C) in subjects with MG exacerbations.
METHODS
This prospective, open-label, non-controlled 28-day clinical trial was conducted in adults with MG Foundation of America class IVb or V status. Subjects received IGIV-C 2 g/kg over 2 consecutive days (1 g/kg/day) and were assessed for efficacy/safety on Days 7, 14, 21, and 28. The primary efficacy endpoint was the change from Baseline in quantitative MG (QMG) score to Day 14. Secondary endpoints of clinical response, Baseline to Day 14, included at least a 3-point decrease in QMG and MG Composite and a 2-point decrease in MG-activities of daily living (MG-ADL).
RESULTS
Forty-nine subjects enrolled. The change in QMG score at Day 14 was significant (p < 0.001) in the Evaluable (-6.4, n = 43) and Safety (-6.7, n = 49) populations. Among evaluable subjects, Day 14 response rates were 77, 86, and 88% for QMG, MG Composite, and MG-ADL, respectively. IGIV-C showed good tolerability with no serious adverse events.

1092,31526071,Efficacy of Proximal Resin Infiltration on Caries Inhibition: Results from a 3-Year Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial.,"This study reports 3-y outcomes of a split-mouth randomized clinical trial. Resin infiltration's capacity to arrest caries lesion progression in noncavitated proximal lesions is affirmed. Forty-two consented young adults, blinded to tooth surface allocation, were treated with resin infiltration on 1 randomly selected surface and concurrently experienced a mock infiltration procedure on another. Both treatments were provided as an adjunct to the currently accepted standard-of-care regimen (periodic prophylaxis and serial fluoride varnish applications) appropriate for the management of high caries risk. Challenging periods of low oral hygiene compliance were expected. The primary outcome measure was 3-y radiographic lesion progression. Blinded investigators evaluated each study surface for lesion progression with a series of images obtained at intervals over the 3-y course of study. Proportions of progressing lesions were compared with McNemar's test. Twenty-nine noncavitated lesion pairs in permanent posterior teeth demonstrating caries penetrating into inner enamel or outer dentin were included in the analyses. No adverse events were reported. Radiographic progression was recorded in 4 of 29 infiltrated lesions (14%) and 14 of 29 control lesions (48%, P < .003). Adjunct resin infiltration demonstrated a high 3-y efficacy of 71% (relative risk reduction). The prevented fraction was 86% for infiltration versus 52% for controls. Resin infiltration was 100% successful in arresting caries progression in inner enamel lesions (E2) and 64% in outer dentin lesions (D1). Supplementary microinvasive resin infiltration is significantly more efficacious in reducing proximal lesion progression than management by standard noninvasive therapy alone. Long-term results may shed light on whether this represents the arrest or delay of the caries disease process (ClinicalTrials.gov NCT01584024).",2019,Resin infiltration was 100% successful in arresting caries progression in inner enamel lesions (E2) and 64% in outer dentin lesions (D1).,"['Forty-two consented young adults', 'Twenty-nine noncavitated lesion pairs in permanent posterior teeth demonstrating caries penetrating into inner enamel or outer dentin']",['Proximal Resin Infiltration'],"['Radiographic progression', 'adverse events', 'proximal lesion progression', 'Caries Inhibition', '3-y radiographic lesion progression']","[{'cui': 'C4319566', 'cui_str': 'Forty-two'}, {'cui': 'C2711213', 'cui_str': 'Consented (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0238598', 'cui_str': 'Young Adult'}, {'cui': 'C0450351', 'cui_str': '29 (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0221198', 'cui_str': 'Lesion (morphologic abnormality)'}, {'cui': 'C0205355', 'cui_str': 'Permanent (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0205095', 'cui_str': 'Behind (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0040426', 'cui_str': 'Tooth'}, {'cui': 'C0333519', 'cui_str': 'Caries (morphologic abnormality)'}, {'cui': 'C0205321', 'cui_str': 'Penetrating (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0205102', 'cui_str': 'Internal (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0011350', 'cui_str': 'Enamel'}, {'cui': 'C0205101', 'cui_str': 'External (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0011429', 'cui_str': 'Dentin'}]","[{'cui': 'C0205107', 'cui_str': 'Proximal (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C3669041', 'cui_str': 'Spread by direct extension (qualifier value)'}]","[{'cui': 'C0444708', 'cui_str': 'Radiographic (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0449258', 'cui_str': 'Progression (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0877248', 'cui_str': 'Adverse event'}, {'cui': 'C0205107', 'cui_str': 'Proximal (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0221198', 'cui_str': 'Lesion (morphologic abnormality)'}, {'cui': 'C0021469', 'cui_str': 'Inhibition, function (observable entity)'}]",,0.0841222,Resin infiltration was 100% successful in arresting caries progression in inner enamel lesions (E2) and 64% in outer dentin lesions (D1).,"[{'ForeName': 'M C', 'Initials': 'MC', 'LastName': 'Peters', 'Affiliation': 'School of Dentistry, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, MI, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'A R', 'Initials': 'AR', 'LastName': 'Hopkins', 'Affiliation': 'Operative and Comprehensive Dentistry, USADC West Point, NY, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'L', 'Initials': 'L', 'LastName': 'Zhu', 'Affiliation': 'Biostatistics Program, Louisiana State University, New Orleans, LA, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Q', 'Initials': 'Q', 'LastName': 'Yu', 'Affiliation': 'Biostatistics Program, Louisiana State University, New Orleans, LA, USA.'}]",Journal of dental research,['10.1177/0022034519876853']

To identify patients who require VCAP-AMP-VECP, we conducted a supplementary analysis of JCOG9801. Overall, 105 patients were included and categorized into low- (n = 44), intermediate- (n = 54) and high-risk (n = 7) groups according to the age-adjusted ATL prognostic index (ATL-PI). We excluded the high-risk group due to small numbers of patients. VCAP-AMP-VECP did not show any superior trend for overall survival (OS) in the low-risk group (hazard ratio: 1·04; 95% confidence interval: 0·54-2·04). Better OS was observed in the intermediate-risk group treated with VCAP-AMP-VECP (hazard ratio: 0·65; 95% confidence interval: 0·36-1·19).

Hereditary angiœdema (HAE) is a rare autosomal dominant disease characterized by recurrent, unpredictable, potentially life-threatening swelling. Objective is to assess the management of the acute HAE attacks in the real life setting through a call center in France.
METHODS
A pre-specified ancillary study of SOS-HAE, a cluster-randomized prospective multicenter trial, was conducted. HAE patients were recruited from 8 participating reference centers. The outcome of interest was the rate of hospitalization.
RESULTS
onerhundred patients were included. The median (quartile) age was 38 (29-53) years, and 66 (66%) were female. Eighty (80%) patients had HAE type I, 8 (8%) had HAE type II and 12 (12%) patients had FXII-HAE. Fifty-one (51%) patients had experienced at least one time the call center during the follow-up. Nine over 166 (5%) attacks for 9 different patients resulted in hospital admission to the hospital (in the short-stay unit, ie, <24 h) during the follow-up period. During 2 years, there were 166 calls to call center for 166 attacks. All attacks were treated at home after call center contact.
CONCLUSIONS
Use of emergency departments and hospitalizations are reduced by the use of a coordinated national call center in HAE after therapeutic education program that promoted self-administration of specific treatment and use of call to call center.

1095,31099272,Economic evaluation of a supported employment program for veterans with spinal cord injury.,"Objective: To estimate the net monetary benefit of an individual placement and support-based supported employment program for Veterans with spinal cord injuries. Design: Economic evaluation comparing a supported employment program to treatment as usual, using cost and quality-of-life data from a longitudinal study of Veterans with spinal cord injuries. Setting: Spinal cord injury centers in the Veterans Health Administration. Participants: Subjects ( N = 213) who participated in a 24-month supported employment program at seven spinal cord injury centers. Supported employment participants were compared with a group of spinal cord injury Veterans who received treatment as usual in a prior study. Main outcome measures: Costs and quality-adjusted life years using the Veterans Rand-6 Dimension, estimated from the Veterans Rand 36-Item Health Survey. Results: The supported employment program was more effective at both 1- and 2-year periods compared with treatment as usual. Outpatient costs were significantly higher for supported employment, but inpatient costs were not significantly different from treatment as usual. When cost and effectiveness were compared jointly using net monetary benefit, a supported employment program following the core principles of Individual Placement and Supported employment was more effective but not cost-effective at standard willingness to pay thresholds. When we considered a sub-group of the supported employment participants who more closely resemble the treatment as usual group from a randomized trial, there was no significant difference in the cost-effectiveness of supported employment when compared to treatment as usual. Conclusions: With higher effectiveness and similar costs, supported employment for spinal cord injury Veterans has the potential to be cost-effective. Future studies need to randomize participants or carefully match participants based on observable patient characteristics to improve cost-effectiveness evaluations of this population.Implications for RehabilitationSupported employment as part of ongoing rehabilitation care helps individuals with spinal cord injury return to work and improve their quality of life.Many studies show that supported employment programs are cost effective for persons with mental disabilities, but there is only limited economic evaluation data on use of supported employment with persons with spinal cord injury.This study shows that supported employment integrated with ongoing rehabilitation care is more effective in restoring employment and health-related quality of life.",2020,"Outpatient costs were significantly higher for supported employment, but inpatient costs were not significantly different from treatment as usual.","['Veterans with spinal cord injuries', 'Subjects (N\u2009=\u2009213) who participated in a 24-month supported employment program at seven spinal cord injury centers', 'Spinal cord injury centers in the Veterans Health Administration', 'spinal cord injury Veterans', 'veterans with spinal cord injury', 'persons with mental disabilities']","['individual placement and support-based supported employment program', 'supported employment program']","['Costs and quality-adjusted life years using the Veterans Rand-6 Dimension, estimated from the Veterans Rand 36-Item Health Survey', 'inpatient costs', 'cost-effectiveness of supported employment', 'Outpatient costs']","[{'cui': 'C0042610', 'cui_str': 'Veterans'}, {'cui': 'C0037929', 'cui_str': 'Spinal Cord Trauma'}, {'cui': 'C0439231', 'cui_str': 'month (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0085362', 'cui_str': 'Employment, Supported'}, {'cui': 'C2728259', 'cui_str': 'Program'}, {'cui': 'C0205453', 'cui_str': '7'}, {'cui': 'C0205099', 'cui_str': 'Central (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0178672', 'cui_str': 'Health administration'}, {'cui': 'C0027361', 'cui_str': 'Persons'}, {'cui': 'C1306341', 'cui_str': 'Mental handicap (finding)'}]","[{'cui': 'C0237401', 'cui_str': 'Individual (person)'}, {'cui': 'C0441587', 'cui_str': 'Insertion - action'}, {'cui': 'C0344211', 'cui_str': 'Supportive care'}, {'cui': 'C0178499', 'cui_str': 'Base'}, {'cui': 'C0085362', 'cui_str': 'Employment, Supported'}, {'cui': 'C2728259', 'cui_str': 'Program'}, {'cui': 'C0014003', 'cui_str': 'Employment'}]","[{'cui': 'C0010186', 'cui_str': 'Cost'}, {'cui': 'C0080071', 'cui_str': 'QALY'}, {'cui': 'C0042610', 'cui_str': 'Veterans'}, {'cui': 'C0439534', 'cui_str': 'Dimensions (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0750572', 'cui_str': 'Estimated (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0018762', 'cui_str': 'Health Surveys'}, {'cui': 'C0021562', 'cui_str': 'Inpatient (person)'}, {'cui': 'C0010181', 'cui_str': 'Cost Effectiveness'}, {'cui': 'C0014003', 'cui_str': 'Employment'}, {'cui': 'C0029921', 'cui_str': 'Out-patients'}]",,0.054043,"Outpatient costs were significantly higher for supported employment, but inpatient costs were not significantly different from treatment as usual.","[{'ForeName': 'Bryce S', 'Initials': 'BS', 'LastName': 'Sutton', 'Affiliation': 'Center of Innovation on Disability and Rehabilitation Research, James A.

1096,31095810,Evaluation of four injection profiles for uniform contrast-enhanced signal intensity profiles in MR angiography.,"BACKGROUND
Gadolinium concentration variation during acquisition of contrast-enhanced MR angiography (CE-MRA) may lead to artifacts.
PURPOSE
To compare signal intensity (SI) profiles of four different contrast agent injection strategies during CE-MRA with the goal of minimizing SI variation during acquisition.
STUDY TYPE
Prospective.
SUBJECTS
Forty subjects randomized to receive one of four injection profiles of gadobenate dimeglumine (0.1 mmol/kg), either undiluted (0.5 M) or diluted to 40 ml total volume. Tested profiles: 1) nondiluted single-phase (""standard"" NS; 1.6 ml/s), 2) diluted single-phase (DS; 1.6 ml/s), 3) diluted biphasic (DB; 9 ml @ 3.3 ml/s, 29 ml @ 1.4 ml/s), 4) patient-tailored protocol using linear prediction (DT).
FIELD STRENGTH/SEQUENCE
Time-resolved SI measured at 3T with spoiled gradient echo sequences having analogous parameters to those of CE-MRA.
ASSESSMENT
Plateau arrival time, rise time, duration, peak and tail SI, plateau quality (sum of squared residuals; SSR), average SI for each injection type derived were used.
STATISTICAL TEST
Two-tailed t-test.
RESULTS
Peak SI, arrival, and rise times were not significantly different between groups, excepting peak SI DB slightly > DS (P = 0.042). Duration of NS vs. the diluted groups was significantly shorter (all P < 0.0001), and DS duration was significantly shorter than that of DT and DB (NS 11.4 ± 3.5 vs. DS 22.9 ± 4.3, DB 25.4 ± 2.3, DT 28.3 ± 4.1 sec). Quality (SSR) of the 20-second plateau was significantly better for DS, DB, DT as compared with NS (all P < 0.001).
DATA CONCLUSION
Three different strategies to power-inject diluted gadobenate dimeglumine targeting a 20-second plateau produced SI profiles with longer duration, more consistent plateau, and no significant loss in peak SI. Such injection profiles may provide more uniform SI during CE-MRA, potentially reducing blurring artifacts.

1097,31207232,Guselkumab Efficacy after Withdrawal Is Associated with Suppression of Serum IL-23-Regulated IL-17 and IL-22 in Psoriasis: VOYAGE 2 Study.,"BACKGROUND
Guselkumab selectively inhibits IL-23 and in psoriasis, produces high clinical responses, including durable maintenance after treatment withdrawal in some patients. The relationships between IL-23 blockade, serum markers downstream of IL-23 signaling, and withdrawal were explored with guselkumab in VOYAGE 2.
METHODS
At week 28, patients with ≥90% Psoriasis Area and Severity Index improvement from baseline (PASI 90) were rerandomized to withdrawal and received placebo (n = 182), or maintenance therapy (n = 193). The guselkumab withdrawal group reinitiated guselkumab upon loss of ≥50% of week- 28 PASI improvement or by week 72. Cytokine changes associated with psoriasis recurrence (serum IL-17A, IL-17F, IL-22, and IL-23) after withdrawal were evaluated.
RESULTS
Efficacy in the guselkumab maintenance group was sustained through week 72, whereas efficacy diminished in the guselkumab withdrawal group (PASI 90, 86.0% vs. 11.5%). After 20 weeks of retreatment, 80.4% of guselkumab withdrawal patients achieved PASI 90 responses versus baseline. Maintenance of response after withdrawal was associated with suppression of IL-17A, IL-17F, and IL-22. Increases in cytokine levels had poor predictive power for psoriasis reoccurrence as these increases lagged behind increases in PASI scores.
CONCLUSION
Upon guselkumab withdrawal, most patients lost clinical response and regained responses with retreatment. Correlation of IL-23 signaling serum cytokines increased with disease recurrence, supporting the role of IL-23 in expansion and maintenance of CD4+ T helper type 17, T helper type 22, and related CD8+ T-cell subsets producing IL-17A, IL-17F, and IL-22.",2019,"Maintenance of response following withdrawal was associated with suppression of IL-17A, IL-17F and IL-22.",[],['placebo'],"['psoriasis recurrence (serum IL-17A, IL-17F, IL-22, and IL-23', 'PASI 90 responses', 'PASI scores']",[],"[{'cui': 'C1696465', 'cui_str': 'placebo'}]","[{'cui': 'C0033860', 'cui_str': 'Psoriasis'}, {'cui': 'C2825055', 'cui_str': 'Recurrence'}, {'cui': 'C0229671', 'cui_str': 'Serum'}, {'cui': 'C1705947', 'cui_str': 'CTLA8'}, {'cui': 'C1705097', 'cui_str': 'Interleukin-17F'}, {'cui': 'C0961814', 'cui_str': 'interleukin-22'}, {'cui': 'C0963088', 'cui_str': 'IL-23'}, {'cui': 'C0449820', 'cui_str': 'Scores (qualifier value)'}]",,0.0857612,"Maintenance of response following withdrawal was associated with suppression of IL-17A, IL-17F and IL-22.","[{'ForeName': 'Kenneth B', 'Initials': 'KB', 'LastName': 'Gordon', 'Affiliation': 'Medical College of Wisconsin, Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'April W', 'Initials': 'AW', 'LastName': 'Armstrong', 'Affiliation': 'University of Southern California, Los Angeles, California, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Peter', 'Initials': 'P', 'LastName': 'Foley', 'Affiliation': ""The University of Melbourne, St. Vincent's Hospital Melbourne, Fitzroy, Victoria, Australia; Probity Medical Research Inc., Skin & Cancer Foundation Inc., Carlton, Victoria, Australia.""}, {'ForeName': 'Michael', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Song', 'Affiliation': 'Janssen Research & Development, LLC, Spring House, Pennsylvania, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Yaung-Kaung', 'Initials': 'YK', 'LastName': 'Shen', 'Affiliation': 'Janssen Research & Development, LLC, Spring House, Pennsylvania, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Shu', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Li', 'Affiliation': 'Janssen Research & Development, LLC, Spring House, Pennsylvania, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Ernesto J', 'Initials': 'EJ', 'LastName': 'Muñoz-Elías', 'Affiliation': 'Janssen Research & Development, LLC, Spring House, Pennsylvania, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Patrick', 'Initials': 'P', 'LastName': 'Branigan', 'Affiliation': 'Janssen Research & Development, LLC, Spring House, Pennsylvania, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Xuejun', 'Initials': 'X', 'LastName': 'Liu', 'Affiliation': 'Janssen Research & Development, LLC, Spring House, Pennsylvania, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Kristian', 'Initials': 'K', 'LastName': 'Reich', 'Affiliation': 'Institute for Health Services Research in Dermatology and Nursing, University Medical Center Hamburg-Eppendorf, Hamburg, Germany; Skinflammation Center, Hamburg, Germany; Dermatologikum Berlin, Berlin, Germany.

1098,31740973,Recoarctation of the aorta after the Norwood procedure may be treated during the second stage of the surgical palliation.,"OBJECTIVES
Recoarctation of the aorta (re-CoA) after the Norwood procedure is traditionally treated during catheter-based aortoplasty (CB-A) performed as a separate procedure preceding stage II surgical palliation (S II SP). Our goal was to determine the efficacy of the protocol according to which re-CoA after the Norwood procedure in patients with hypoplastic left heart syndrome is treated during S II SP using hybrid catheter-based aortoplasty.
METHODS
We compared 2 groups of infants who developed re-CoA after the Norwood procedure and were treated at the same institution: In group I (n = 18), CB-A was traditionally performed before S II SP; in group II (n = 15), CB-A was performed during S II SP using a hybrid procedure (catheter access was through an aortic cannula routinely used for cardiopulmonary bypass). The right ventricular fractional area change was analysed.
RESULTS
The CB-A was performed effectively in both groups. S II SP was performed at a younger age in group II (5.4 ± 0.3 vs 6.0 ± 0.4 months; P = 0.003), with lower body weight (5.6 ± 0.5 vs 6.0 ± 0.4; P = 0.03, respectively). The duration of hospital stay did not differ between the groups (10.6 ± 6.2 vs 11.6 ± 6.4 days; P = 0.91). The right ventricular fractional area change measured before S II SP was higher in group I (39.7 ± 4.2% vs 36.8 ± 3.6%, respectively; P = 0.009), but the difference was not seen 1 month after S II SP (41.0 ± 5.6 vs 39.8 ± 4.1; P > 0.05). The total radiation dose was significantly lower in group II.
CONCLUSIONS
re-CoA after the Norwood procedure in patients with hypoplastic left heart syndrome can be treated effectively during S II SP using a hybrid procedure. The strategy allows for reduction of the total radiation dose and of the number of procedures and does not prolong the postoperative course, even in patients with decreased right ventricular systolic function.",2019,"The strategy allows for reduction of the total radiation dose and of the number of procedures and does not prolong the postoperative course, even in patients with decreased right ventricular systolic function.",['patients with hypoplastic left heart syndrome'],"['CB-A was traditionally performed before S II SP', 'CB-A was performed during S II SP using a hybrid procedure']","['total radiation dose', 'duration of hospital stay', 'right ventricular systolic function']","[{'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C0152101', 'cui_str': 'Left Heart Hypoplasia Syndrome'}]","[{'cui': 'C0884358', 'cui_str': 'Performed'}, {'cui': 'C0020205', 'cui_str': 'Hybrids'}, {'cui': 'C0184661', 'cui_str': 'Procedures'}]","[{'cui': 'C0439810', 'cui_str': 'Total (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0851346', 'cui_str': 'Radiation'}, {'cui': 'C0869039', 'cui_str': 'Unit dose'}, {'cui': 'C2926735', 'cui_str': 'Duration'}, {'cui': 'C3489408', 'cui_str': 'Hospital Stay'}, {'cui': 'C0205090', 'cui_str': 'Right (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0039155', 'cui_str': 'Systole'}, {'cui': 'C0031843', 'cui_str': 'function'}]",,0.022685,"The strategy allows for reduction of the total radiation dose and of the number of procedures and does not prolong the postoperative course, even in patients with decreased right ventricular systolic function.","[{'ForeName': 'Tomasz', 'Initials': 'T', 'LastName': 'Mroczek', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Pediatric Cardiac Surgery, Jagiellonian University Medical College, Krakow, Poland.'}, {'ForeName': 'Magdalena', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Czerżyńska', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Pediatric Cardiac Surgery, Jagiellonian University Medical College, Krakow, Poland.'}, {'ForeName': 'Julita', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Sacharczuk', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Pediatric Cardiac Surgery, Jagiellonian University Medical College, Krakow, Poland.'}, {'ForeName': 'Rafał', 'Initials': 'R', 'LastName': 'Żurek', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Pediatric Cardiac Surgery, Jagiellonian University Medical College, Krakow, Poland.'}, {'ForeName': 'Elżbieta', 'Initials': 'E', 'LastName': 'Wójcik', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Pediatric Cardiac Surgery, Jagiellonian University Medical College, Krakow, Poland.'}, {'ForeName': 'Aleksandra', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Morka', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Pediatric Cardiac Surgery, Jagiellonian University Medical College, Krakow, Poland.'}, {'ForeName': 'Jacek', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Kuźma', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Pediatric Cardiology, Jagiellonian University Medical College, Krakow, Poland.'}, {'ForeName': 'Janusz H', 'Initials': 'JH', 'LastName': 'Skalski', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Pediatric Cardiac Surgery, Jagiellonian University Medical College, Krakow, Poland.'}]",European journal of cardio-thoracic surgery : official journal of the European Association for Cardio-thoracic Surgery,['10.1093/ejcts/ezz241']
1099,31719604,Total adiponectin is associated with incident cardiovascular and renal events in treated hypertensive patients: subanalysis of the ATTEMPT-CVD randomized trial.,"The predictive value of serum adiponectin for hypertensive cardiovascular outcomes is unknown. This study was performed to investigate the association of adiponectin with incident cardiovascular and renal events (CV events) in hypertensive patients. We performed post-hoc analysis on 1,228 hypertensive patients enrolled in the ATTEMPT-CVD study, a prospective randomized study comparing the effects of two antihypertensive therapies. The participants were divided into quartiles of baseline serum total adiponectin or high molecular weight (HMW) adiponectin. Multivariable Cox proportional hazards analysis was performed to determine the prognostic factors associated with CV events. Kaplan-Meier analysis for CV events by quartiles of baseline total adiponectin showed that patients in the highest total adiponectin quartile (Q4) had more CV events (P = 0.0135).

1100,30815689,Rifampicin effect on intracellular and plasma pharmacokinetics of tenofovir alafenamide.,"OBJECTIVES
Tenofovir alafenamide produces lower plasma tenofovir and higher intracellular tenofovir diphosphate (DP) concentrations than tenofovir disoproxil fumarate but it is likely a victim of interactions with rifampicin. We aimed to investigate the pharmacokinetics of tenofovir alafenamide/emtricitabine with rifampicin.
PATIENTS AND METHODS
Healthy volunteers received tenofovir alafenamide/emtricitabine at 25/200 mg once daily, followed by tenofovir alafenamide/emtricitabine + rifampicin daily followed by tenofovir disoproxil fumarate. Plasma tenofovir alafenamide, tenofovir, emtricitabine and intracellular tenofovir-DP and emtricitabine triphosphate pharmacokinetics and genetic polymorphisms were assessed.
RESULTS
Tenofovir alafenamide exposure decreased when tenofovir alafenamide/emtricitabine + rifampicin was used compared with tenofovir alafenamide/emtricitabine [geometric mean ratio (GMR) (90% CI): 0.45 (0.33-0.60)]. Plasma tenofovir and intracellular tenofovir-DP concentrations decreased with rifampicin [GMR (90% CI): 0.46 (0.40-0.52) and 0.64 (0.54-0.75), respectively]. GMR (90% CI) of intracellular tenofovir-DP AUC0-24 for tenofovir alafenamide/emtricitabine + rifampicin versus tenofovir disoproxil fumarate was 4.21 (2.98-5.95). Rifampicin did not affect emtricitabine pharmacokinetics. CYP3A4*22 rs35599367 was associated with higher plasma tenofovir alafenamide AUC0-24 at day 56.
CONCLUSIONS

1101,30859184,The pharmacokinetics of nitrofurantoin in healthy female volunteers: a randomized crossover study.,"BACKGROUND
Use of nitrofurantoin has increased significantly since its recent repositioning as a first-line agent for uncomplicated cystitis by multiple guidelines. However, current dosing regimens were developed in an era before robust pharmacokinetic testing and may not be optimal. Furthermore, formulations have been modified over the years.
OBJECTIVES
To reassess the plasma and urinary pharmacokinetic profile of macrocrystalline nitrofurantoin in two commonly used dosing regimens.
METHODS
In this open-label, randomized crossover pharmacokinetic trial, 12 healthy adult female volunteers were randomized to receive oral nitrofurantoin 100 mg q8h on days 1 and 2 and, after a washout period, 50 mg q6h on days 30 and 31, or the same dosing schemes in reversed order. Urine and blood were collected at steady state and analysed by UPLC. Pharmacokinetic analysis was performed by WinNonlin.
RESULTS
Plasma peak concentrations were low (mean 0.33 mg/L, SD 0.08, and 0.69 mg/L, SD 0.35, after 50 and 100 mg, respectively) and dose dependent. The AUC0-24 was higher (6.49 versus 4.43 mg·h/L, P = 0.021) for the 100 mg q8h dosing regimen, but the dose-normalized AUC was similar for the two regimens. In contrast, urinary concentrations were dose independent: increasing the nitrofurantoin dose delayed the time to peak urinary concentration, while steady-state AUC0-24 values remained unchanged (943.49 and 855.95 mg·h/L at 50 mg q6h and 100 mg q8h, respectively).
CONCLUSIONS
Plasma concentrations were relatively low and dose dependent. The dose-independent urinary concentrations suggest that excretion of nitrofurantoin into the urine is saturable. Pharmacodynamic studies are urgently required to determine the impact of these findings.",2019,"The AUC0-24 was higher (6.49 versus 4.43 mg·h/L, P = 0.021) for the 100 mg q8h dosing regimen, but the dose-normalized AUC was similar for the two regimens.","['healthy female volunteers', '12 healthy adult female volunteers']","['oral nitrofurantoin', 'nitrofurantoin']","['Plasma peak concentrations', 'urinary concentrations', 'Urine and blood']","[{'cui': 'C0086287', 'cui_str': 'Females'}, {'cui': 'C0042960', 'cui_str': 'Volunteer Workers'}, {'cui': 'C0686750', 'cui_str': 'Well adult (finding)'}]","[{'cui': 'C4521986', 'cui_str': 'Oral (intended site)'}, {'cui': 'C0028156', 'cui_str': 'Nitrofurantoin'}]","[{'cui': 'C0032105', 'cui_str': 'Blood Plasma'}, {'cui': 'C0444505', 'cui_str': 'Peak (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0086045', 'cui_str': 'Concentration'}, {'cui': 'C0232827', 'cui_str': 'Urinary concentration, function (observable entity)'}, {'cui': 'C0042037'}, {'cui': 'C0005768'}]",12.0,0.0491764,"The AUC0-24 was higher (6.49 versus 4.43 mg·h/L, P = 0.021) for the 100 mg q8h dosing regimen, but the dose-normalized AUC was similar for the two regimens.","[{'ForeName': 'Angela', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Huttner', 'Affiliation': 'Division of Infectious Diseases, Geneva University Hospitals and Faculty of Medicine, Geneva, Switzerland.'}, {'ForeName': 'Rixt A', 'Initials': 'RA', 'LastName': 'Wijma', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Medical Microbiology and Infectious Diseases, Erasmus University Medical Centre, Rotterdam, The Netherlands.'}, {'ForeName': 'Andrew J', 'Initials': 'AJ', 'LastName': 'Stewardson', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Infectious Disease, Alfred Health and Central Clinical School, Monash University, Melbourne, Australia.'}, {'ForeName': 'Flaminia', 'Initials': 'F', 'LastName': 'Olearo', 'Affiliation': 'Division of Infectious Diseases, Geneva University Hospitals and Faculty of Medicine, Geneva, Switzerland.'}, {'ForeName': 'Elodie', 'Initials': 'E', 'LastName': 'Von Dach', 'Affiliation': 'Division of Infectious Diseases, Geneva University Hospitals and Faculty of Medicine, Geneva, Switzerland.'}, {'ForeName': 'Stephan', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Harbarth', 'Affiliation': 'Division of Infectious Diseases, Geneva University Hospitals and Faculty of Medicine, Geneva, Switzerland.'}, {'ForeName': 'Roger J M', 'Initials': 'RJM', 'LastName': 'Brüggemann', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Pharmacy and Center of Expertise in Mycology, Radboud University, Nijmegen, The Netherlands.'}, {'ForeName': 'Johan W', 'Initials': 'JW', 'LastName': 'Mouton', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Medical Microbiology and Infectious Diseases, Erasmus University Medical Centre, Rotterdam, The Netherlands.'}, {'ForeName': 'Anouk E', 'Initials': 'AE', 'LastName': 'Muller', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Medical Microbiology and Infectious Diseases, Erasmus University Medical Centre, Rotterdam, The Netherlands.'}]",The Journal of antimicrobial chemotherapy,['10.1093/jac/dkz095']
1102,31094619,Does an Accelerated Program Give Equivalent Results in Both Elite Athletes and Nonathletes?,"CONTEXT
Although many researchers have investigated the functional outcomes of different accelerated rehabilitation programs after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR), the functional results of the same accelerated rehabilitation program following ACLR applied for both elite athletes and nonathletes have not yet been investigated.
OBJECTIVE
To examine the effects of the same accelerated anterior cruciate ligament rehabilitation program on pain and functionality of elite athletes and nonathletes.
DESIGN
Prospective preintervention-postintervention design.
SETTING
Physiotherapy department.
PARTICIPANTS
Fifteen elite athletes and 15 nonathletes who underwent unilateral ACLR with autologous hamstring tendon graft.
INTERVENTION
All participants received the same protocol for 6 weeks (5 sessions in a week).
MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES
Primary measurements were pain intensity, which was measured by visual analog scale, range of motion measurement using universal goniometer, and functionality, which was detected by Lysholm score. Secondary measurements were short form-36 and Beck Depression Inventory.
RESULTS
Higher Lysholm (P = .001) and Beck Depression Inventory (P = .03) scores were observed in the elite athlete group, and higher pain (P = .001) was observed in the nonathlete group at baseline assessments. Significant improvement detected for pain (P < .05), knee flexion range (P < .05), Lysholm score (P < .05), and Beck Depression Inventory (P < .05) compared with preintervention for both groups. Finally, after comparing the mean change values, the nonathlete group displayed greater decrease in pain level (P = .01) and participants in the elite athlete group further showed a greater decrease in depression level (P = .001).

1103,31094639,The Effects of Blood Flow Restriction on Muscle Activation and Hypoxia in Individuals With Chronic Ankle Instability.,"CONTEXT
Muscle dysfunction is common in patients with chronic ankle instability (CAI). Blood flow restriction (BFR) may enhance muscle responses during exercise and provide an opportunity to enhance muscle adaptations to ankle rehabilitation exercises; however, there is no evidence examining the effect of BFR on muscle function in CAI patients.
OBJECTIVE
Examine the effects of BFR on muscle activation and oxygen saturation during submaximal ankle eversion and dorsiflexion exercises in individuals with CAI.
DESIGN
Cross-over study design.
SETTING
Laboratory setting. Patients (or Other Participants): Nineteen young adults with a history of CAI.
INTERVENTIONS
Participants performed 4 sets (30, 15, 15, and 15) of eversion and dorsiflexion resistance exercises at 30% of maximum voluntary isometric contraction during 2 conditions, BFR and control. For BFR, a cuff was applied above the knee at 80% of blood flow occlusion. For control, the cuff was not inflated.
MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES
Fibularis longus and tibialis anterior electromyography muscle activation, lower-leg muscle oxygen saturation, and ratings of perceived exertion were recorded during exercises.
RESULTS
Average grand mean muscle activation was 5.6% greater during eversion (P = .03) and 7.7% greater during dorsiflexion (P = .01) resistance exercises with BFR compared with control; however, the magnitudes of the effects of BFR were only clinically important during the dorsiflexion exercises. Lower-leg muscle oxygen saturation was 31% to 44% lower (P < .001) during BFR exercises. Ratings of perceived exertion were significantly higher during BFR exercises (P < .001).
CONCLUSIONS
Greater muscle activation and hypoxia were present during submaximal resistance exercise with BFR in participants with CAI. Greater muscle activation and hypoxia during BFR exercises may be important acute responses mediating the training-related muscle adaptations that have been observed with BFR. The presence of these acute responses in CAI patients supports further research examining BFR as a potential ankle rehabilitation tool.",2019,Lower-leg muscle oxygen saturation was 31-44% lower ( P <.001) during BFR exercises.,"['CAI patients', 'Individuals with Chronic Ankle Instability', '\n\n\nNineteen (n=19) young adults with a history of CAI', 'patients with chronic ankle instability (CAI', 'participants with CAI', 'individuals with CAI']","['eversion and dorsiflexion resistance exercises at 30% of maximum voluntary isometric contraction (MVIC', 'BFR', 'Blood Flow Restriction', 'Blood flow restriction (BFR']","['Lower-leg muscle oxygen saturation', 'Fibularis longus and tibialis anterior electromyography (EMG) muscle activation, lower-leg muscle oxygen saturation (SmO 2 ), and ratings of perceived exertion (RPE', 'RPE', 'muscle activation and oxygen saturation', 'mean muscle activation', 'Muscle Activation and Hypoxia']","[{'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C0237401', 'cui_str': 'Individual (person)'}, {'cui': 'C3840097', 'cui_str': 'Chronic ankle instability'}, {'cui': 'C0450337', 'cui_str': '19 (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0238598', 'cui_str': 'Young Adult'}, {'cui': 'C0262926', 'cui_str': 'History of (contextual qualifier) (qualifier value)'}]","[{'cui': 'C0015211', 'cui_str': 'Eversion (morphologic abnormality)'}, {'cui': 'C0015259', 'cui_str': 'Physical Activity'}, {'cui': 'C0439656', 'cui_str': 'Voluntary (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0022205', 'cui_str': 'Isometric Contraction'}, {'cui': 'C0232338', 'cui_str': 'Vascular flow, function (observable entity)'}]","[{'cui': 'C1140621', 'cui_str': 'Leg'}, {'cui': 'C0026845', 'cui_str': 'Muscle Tissue'}, {'cui': 'C0523807', 'cui_str': 'Oximetry'}, {'cui': 'C0205094', 'cui_str': 'Anterior (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0013839', 'cui_str': 'Electromyography'}, {'cui': 'C0015264', 'cui_str': 'Exertion, function (observable entity)'}, {'cui': 'C0445208', 'cui_str': 'RPE'}, {'cui': 'C0444504', 'cui_str': 'Mean (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0242184', 'cui_str': 'Hypoxia'}]",,0.0162878,Lower-leg muscle oxygen saturation was 31-44% lower ( P <.001) during BFR exercises.,"[{'ForeName': 'Brian', 'Initials': 'B', 'LastName': 'Killinger', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Jakob D', 'Initials': 'JD', 'LastName': 'Lauver', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Luke', 'Initials': 'L', 'LastName': 'Donovan', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'John', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Goetschius', 'Affiliation': ''}]",Journal of sport rehabilitation,['10.1123/jsr.2018-0416']
1104,31094640,Effects of Taping and Balance Exercises on Knee and Lower-Extremity Function in Amateur Soccer Players: A Randomized Controlled Trial.,"CONTEXT
Knee injury prevention is a critical aspect in sport rehabilitation sciences, and taping is a widely used technique in this field. Nevertheless, the role and effectiveness of a long-term application of Kinesio Taping (KT) on knee function, disability, and injury prevention remain unclear.
OBJECTIVE
To determine the effect of KT, alone or in combination with balance exercises (BE), on dynamic and static knee balance and flexibility.
DESIGN
Randomized trial design.
SETTING
University of Valencia (Spain).
PARTICIPANTS
Forty-eight male amateur soccer players.
INTERVENTION
Participants were assigned to 3 groups: Sham KT (sKT) + BE, KT + BE, and KT in isolation. The intervention period lasted 4 weeks. Three evaluations were performed: at baseline (pre), at 2 weeks (mid), and at 4 weeks posttreatment (post).
MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES
Y Balance Test, unipedal stance test, the toe touch test, and the Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score.
RESULTS
Both sKT + BE and KT + BE groups achieved significant pre-post improvements in SEBT, unipedal stance test, and toe touch test. The KT group only showed significant intragroup differences in the left and right unipedal stance test variable (P < .05, d = 0.76, d = 0.62, respectively). The sham KT group obtained the strongest results in all physical variables. Regarding the Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score, pre-post significant changes were found in the sham group (P < .05, d = 0.28).
CONCLUSIONS
Both sham and real KT in combination with BE achieved significant improvements on all physical variables, and these differences were significantly greater compared with those found in the KT in the isolation group, suggesting that benefits in knee function are due to the BE.

1105,31748505,Effects of cannabidivarin (CBDV) on brain excitation and inhibition systems in adults with and without Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD): a single dose trial during magnetic resonance spectroscopy.,"Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a high cost neurodevelopmental condition; and there are currently no effective pharmacological treatments for its core symptoms. This has led some families and researchers to trial alternative remedies - including the non-intoxicating Cannabis sativa-derived compound cannabidivarin (CBDV). However, how CBDV affects the human brain is unknown. Previous (pre)clinical evidence suggests that CBDV may modulate brain excitatory-inhibitory systems, which are implicated in ASD. Hence, our main aim was to test, for the first time, if CBDV shifts glutamate and/or GABA metabolites - markers of the brain's primary excitatory and inhibitory system - in both the 'typical' and autistic brain. Our subsidiary aim was to determine whether, within ASD, brain responsivity to CBDV challenge is related to baseline biological phenotype. We tested this using a repeated-measures, double-blind, randomized-order, cross-over design. We used magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) to compare glutamate (Glx = glutamate + glutamine) and GABA + (GABA + macromolecules) levels following placebo (baseline) and 600 mg CBDV in 34 healthy men with (n = 17) and without (n = 17) ASD. Data acquisition from regions previously reliably linked to ASD (dorsomedial prefrontal cortex, DMPFC; left basal ganglia, BG) commenced 2 h (peak plasma levels) after placebo/CBDV administration. Where CBDV significantly shifted metabolite levels, we examined the relationship of this change with baseline metabolite levels. Test sessions were at least 13 days apart to ensure CBDV wash-out. CBDV significantly increased Glx in the BG of both groups. However, this impact was not uniform across individuals. In the ASD group, and not in the typically developing controls, the 'shift' in Glx correlated negatively with baseline Glx concentration. In contrast, CBDV had no significant impact on Glx in the DMPFC, or on GABA+ in either voxel in either group. Our findings suggest that, as measured by MRS, CBDV modulates the glutamate-GABA system in the BG but not in frontal regions. Moreover, there is individual variation in response depending on baseline biochemistry. Future studies should examine the effect of CBDV on behaviour and if the response to an acute dose of CBDV could predict a potential clinical treatment response in ASD.",2019,"In contrast, CBDV had no significant impact on Glx in the DMPFC, or on GABA+ in either voxel in either group.","['34 healthy men with (n\u2009=\u200917) and without (n\u2009=\u200917) ASD', 'adults with and without Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD', 'Autism spectrum disorder (ASD']","['placebo (baseline) and 600\u2009mg CBDV', 'cannabidivarin (CBDV', 'magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) to compare glutamate (Glx\u2009=\u2009glutamate\u2009+\u2009glutamine) and GABA\u2009+\u2009(GABA', 'magnetic resonance spectroscopy']",['brain excitation and inhibition systems'],"[{'cui': 'C0086418', 'cui_str': 'Humans'}, {'cui': 'C0001675', 'cui_str': 'Adult'}, {'cui': 'C1510586', 'cui_str': 'Autism Spectrum Disorders'}]","[{'cui': 'C1696465', 'cui_str': 'placebo'}, {'cui': 'C3816748', 'cui_str': '600'}, {'cui': 'C3657549', 'cui_str': 'CBDV compound'}, {'cui': 'C0024487', 'cui_str': 'MR Spectroscopy'}, {'cui': 'C0220839', 'cui_str': 'Glutamate'}, {'cui': 'C0017797', 'cui_str': 'Glutamine'}, {'cui': 'C0016904', 'cui_str': 'gamma-Aminobutyric Acid'}]","[{'cui': 'C0006104', 'cui_str': 'Encephalon'}, {'cui': 'C0021469', 'cui_str': 'Inhibition, function (observable entity)'}, {'cui': 'C0449913', 'cui_str': 'System (attribute)'}]",34.0,0.290473,"In contrast, CBDV had no significant impact on Glx in the DMPFC, or on GABA+ in either voxel in either group.","[{'ForeName': 'Charlotte M', 'Initials': 'CM', 'LastName': 'Pretzsch', 'Affiliation': ""Department of Forensic and Neurodevelopmental Sciences, Institute of Psychiatry, Psychology & Neuroscience, King's College London, London, UK.""}, {'ForeName': 'Bogdan', 'Initials': 'B', 'LastName': 'Voinescu', 'Affiliation': ""Department of Forensic and Neurodevelopmental Sciences, Institute of Psychiatry, Psychology & Neuroscience, King's College London, London, UK.""}, {'ForeName': 'David', 'Initials': 'D', 'LastName': 'Lythgoe', 'Affiliation': ""Department of Neuroimaging Sciences, Institute of Psychiatry, Psychology & Neuroscience, King's College London, London, UK.""}, {'ForeName': 'Jamie', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Horder', 'Affiliation': ""Department of Forensic and Neurodevelopmental Sciences, Institute of Psychiatry, Psychology & Neuroscience, King's College London, London, UK.""}, {'ForeName': 'Maria Andreina', 'Initials': 'MA', 'LastName': 'Mendez', 'Affiliation': ""Department of Forensic and Neurodevelopmental Sciences, Institute of Psychiatry, Psychology & Neuroscience, King's College London, London, UK.""}, {'ForeName': 'Robert', 'Initials': 'R', 'LastName': 'Wichers', 'Affiliation': ""Department of Forensic and Neurodevelopmental Sciences, Institute of Psychiatry, Psychology & Neuroscience, King's College London, London, UK.""}, {'ForeName': 'Laura', 'Initials': 'L', 'LastName': 'Ajram', 'Affiliation': ""Department of Forensic and Neurodevelopmental Sciences, Institute of Psychiatry, Psychology & Neuroscience, King's College London, London, UK.""}, {'ForeName': 'Glynis', 'Initials': 'G', 'LastName': 'Ivin', 'Affiliation': 'South London and Maudsley NHS Foundation Trust Pharmacy, London, UK.'}, {'ForeName': 'Martin', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Heasman', 'Affiliation': 'South London and Maudsley NHS Foundation Trust Pharmacy, London, UK.'}, {'ForeName': 'Richard A E', 'Initials': 'RAE', 'LastName': 'Edden', 'Affiliation': 'Russel H Morgan Department of Radiology and Radiological Science, Johns Hopkins Medical Institutions, Baltimore, MD, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Steven', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Williams', 'Affiliation': ""Department of Neuroimaging Sciences, Institute of Psychiatry, Psychology & Neuroscience, King's College London, London, UK.""}, {'ForeName': 'Declan G M', 'Initials': 'DGM', 'LastName': 'Murphy', 'Affiliation': ""Department of Forensic and Neurodevelopmental Sciences, Institute of Psychiatry, Psychology & Neuroscience, King's College London, London, UK.""}, {'ForeName': 'Eileen', 'Initials': 'E', 'LastName': 'Daly', 'Affiliation': ""Department of Forensic and Neurodevelopmental Sciences, Institute of Psychiatry, Psychology & Neuroscience, King's College London, London, UK.""}, {'ForeName': 'Gráinne M', 'Initials': 'GM', 'LastName': 'McAlonan', 'Affiliation': ""Department of Forensic and Neurodevelopmental Sciences, Institute of Psychiatry, Psychology & Neuroscience, King's College London, London, UK. grainne.mcalonan@kcl.ac.uk.""}]",Translational psychiatry,['10.1038/s41398-019-0654-8']
1106,31062373,Influence of Calcineurin Inhibitor and Sex on Mycophenolic Acid Pharmacokinetics and Adverse Effects Post-Renal Transplant.,"Tacrolimus or cyclosporine is prescribed with mycophenolic acid posttransplant and contributes to interpatient variability in mycophenolic acid pharmacokinetics and response. Cyclosporine inhibits enterohepatic circulation of the metabolite mycophenolic acid glucuronide, which is not described with tacrolimus. This study investigated mycophenolic acid pharmacokinetics and adverse effects in stable renal transplant recipients and the association with calcineurin inhibitors, sex, and race. Mycophenolic acid and mycophenolic acid glucuronide area under the concentration-time curve from 0 to 12 hours (AUC 0-12h ) and apparent clearance were determined at steady state in 80 patients receiving cyclosporine with mycophenolate mofetil and 67 patients receiving tacrolimus with mycophenolate sodium. Gastrointestinal adverse effects and hematologic parameters were evaluated. Statistical models evaluated mycophenolic acid pharmacokinetics and adverse effects. Mycophenolic acid AUC 0-12h was 1.70-fold greater with tacrolimus (68.9 ± 30.9 mg·h/L) relative to cyclosporine (40.8 ± 17.6 mg·h/L); P < .001. Target mycophenolic acid AUC 0-12h of 30-60 mg·h/L was achieved in 56.3% on cyclosporine compared with 34.3% receiving tacrolimus (P < .001). Mycophenolic acid clearance was 48% slower with tacrolimus (10.6 ± 4.7 L/h) relative to cyclosporine (20.5 ± 10.0 L/h); P < .001. Enterohepatic circulation occurred less frequently with cyclosporine (45%) compared with tacrolimus (78%); P < 0.001; with a 2.9-fold greater mycophenolic acid glucuronide AUC 0-12h to mycophenolic acid AUC 0-12h ratio (P < .001). Race did not affect mycophenolic acid pharmacokinetics. Gastrointestinal adverse effect scores were 2.2-fold higher with tacrolimus (P < .001) and more prominent in women (P = .017). Lymphopenia was more prevalent with tacrolimus (52.2%) than cyclosporine (22.5%); P < 0.001.

1107,31177364,Conventional Versus Distal Laparoscopic One-Anastomosis Gastric Bypass: a Randomized Controlled Trial with 1-Year Follow-up.,"BACKGROUND
There is no consensus on the ideal small bowel length that should be bypassed in laparoscopic one-anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB). This study aimed to compare the safety and efficacy of conventional versus distal techniques of laparoscopic OAGB.
METHODS
This randomized controlled trial involved 60 adults with morbid obesity scheduled for laparoscopic OAGB randomly assigned to one of the two techniques; conventional technique (fixed anastomosis 200 cm from the ligament of Treitz) and distal technique (anastomosis 400 cm from the ileocecal valve). Total small bowel length (TSBL) was measured in all cases. Quality of life was assessed using the Gastrointestinal Quality of Life Index (GIQLI). Outcome measures were excess body weight loss percentage (EBWL%), resolution of associated comorbidities, frequency of nutritional deficiencies, and quality of life.
RESULTS
No patients were lost to follow-up. The two groups were comparable in TSBL, EBWL%, and complete resolution of comorbidities up to 12 months. The percentage of afferent loop length to TSBL was significantly higher in the distal group (p < 0.001) but was not correlated with EBWL%. The levels of hemoglobin, cholesterol, triglycerides, iron, and albumin were significantly lower and parathormone hormone was higher in the distal group. The GIQLI score was significantly higher in the conventional group during follow-up.
CONCLUSION
OAGB achieves optimum results when the afferent loop length is 200 cm; bypassing more than 200 cm does not improve weight loss or comorbidity resolution. Measuring TSBL is recommended to avoid excessive small bowel shortening that increases the risk of nutritional consequences.",2019,The percentage of afferent loop length to TSBL was significantly higher in the distal group (p < 0.001) but was not correlated with EBWL%.,['60 adults with morbid obesity scheduled for laparoscopic OAGB randomly assigned to one of the two techniques'],"['Conventional Versus Distal Laparoscopic One-Anastomosis Gastric Bypass', 'conventional technique (fixed anastomosis 200\xa0cm from the ligament of Treitz) and distal technique (anastomosis 400\xa0cm from the ileocecal valve']","['safety and efficacy', 'percentage of afferent loop length to TSBL', 'Quality of life', 'weight loss or comorbidity resolution', 'Total small bowel length (TSBL', 'TSBL, EBWL%, and complete resolution of comorbidities', 'parathormone hormone', 'Gastrointestinal Quality of Life Index (GIQLI', 'excess body weight loss percentage (EBWL%), resolution of associated comorbidities, frequency of nutritional deficiencies, and quality of life', 'levels of hemoglobin, cholesterol, triglycerides, iron, and albumin', 'GIQLI score']","[{'cui': 'C0001675', 'cui_str': 'Adult'}, {'cui': 'C0028756', 'cui_str': 'Obesity, Severe'}, {'cui': 'C0086960', 'cui_str': 'Schedules'}, {'cui': 'C1516050', 'cui_str': 'Assigned (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0025664', 'cui_str': 'techniques'}]","[{'cui': 'C0439858', 'cui_str': 'Conventional (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0205108', 'cui_str': 'Distal (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0332853', 'cui_str': 'Anastomosis (morphologic abnormality)'}, {'cui': 'C0017125', 'cui_str': 'Gastric Bypass'}, {'cui': 'C0025664', 'cui_str': 'techniques'}, {'cui': 'C0443218', 'cui_str': 'Fixed (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C4319558', 'cui_str': '200'}, {'cui': 'C1261087', 'cui_str': 'Ligament of Treitz'}, {'cui': 'C3816746', 'cui_str': 'Four hundred'}, {'cui': 'C0020880', 'cui_str': 'Ileocecal Valve'}]","[{'cui': 'C0036043', 'cui_str': 'Safety'}, {'cui': 'C0205115', 'cui_str': 'Afferent (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0445022', 'cui_str': 'Loop (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C1444754', 'cui_str': 'Length property'}, {'cui': 'C0034380'}, {'cui': 'C1262477', 'cui_str': 'Weight Reduction'}, {'cui': 'C0009488', 'cui_str': 'Comorbidity'}, {'cui': 'C0439810', 'cui_str': 'Total (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0021852', 'cui_str': 'Intestines, Small'}, {'cui': 'C0205197', 'cui_str': 'Complete (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0030520', 'cui_str': 'Parathyroid Hormone'}, {'cui': 'C0019932', 'cui_str': 'Hormones'}, {'cui': 'C0451498', 'cui_str': 'Spitzer quality of life index (assessment scale)'}, {'cui': 'C0005910', 'cui_str': 'Body Weight'}, {'cui': 'C0376249', 'cui_str': 'Frequency (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0162429', 'cui_str': 'Malnutrition'}, {'cui': 'C0456079', 'cui_str': 'Level (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0019046', 'cui_str': 'Hemoglobin'}, {'cui': 'C0008377', 'cui_str': 'Cholesterol'}, {'cui': 'C0041004', 'cui_str': 'Triacylglycerol'}, {'cui': 'C0337439', 'cui_str': 'Iron measurement (procedure)'}, {'cui': 'C3711292', 'cui_str': '68Ga-albumin'}, {'cui': 'C0449820', 'cui_str': 'Scores (qualifier value)'}]",60.0,0.0909236,The percentage of afferent loop length to TSBL was significantly higher in the distal group (p < 0.001) but was not correlated with EBWL%.,"[{'ForeName': 'Tamer M', 'Initials': 'TM', 'LastName': 'Nabil', 'Affiliation': 'Department of General Surgery, Beni Suef University, Beni Suef, Egypt.'}, {'ForeName': 'Ahmed H', 'Initials': 'AH', 'LastName': 'Khalil', 'Affiliation': 'Department of General Surgery, Cairo University, Fom El Khalig, Cairo, Egypt. dr_ahmedhussein76@yahoo.com.'}, {'ForeName': 'Sameh', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Mikhail', 'Affiliation': 'Department of General Surgery, Cairo University, Fom El Khalig, Cairo, Egypt.'}, {'ForeName': 'Salah S', 'Initials': 'SS', 'LastName': 'Soliman', 'Affiliation': 'Department of General Surgery, Fayoum University, Faiyum, Egypt.'}, {'ForeName': 'Mostafa', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Aziz', 'Affiliation': 'Department of General Surgery, Cairo University, Fom El Khalig, Cairo, Egypt.'}, {'ForeName': 'Halepian', 'Initials': 'H', 'LastName': 'Antoine', 'Affiliation': 'Department of General Surgery, Cairo University, Fom El Khalig, Cairo, Egypt.'}]",Obesity surgery,['10.1007/s11695-019-03991-5']
1108,31590926,Pharmacist linkage in care transitions: From academic medical center to community.,"OBJECTIVES
To improve the care of patients discharged from the University of Mississippi Medical Center (UMMC) after treatment for acute myocardial infarction, heart failure, pneumonia, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease; reduce preventable hospital readmissions; and inform future care transition collaborations between hospital teams and community pharmacies.
SETTING
Study was conducted at UMMC, UMMC outpatient pharmacies, and targeted community pharmacies.
PRACTICE DESCRIPTION
UMMC is the state's only academic health science center, providing all levels of care. Participants were at UMMC's 722-bed hospital in Jackson, MS. Participating pharmacies included 2 UMMC outpatient pharmacies and community pharmacy research partner sites within 60 miles of UMMC.
PRACTICE INNOVATION
A pharmacist transitions coordinator (PTC) worked with inpatient and community-based pharmacists to provide predischarge medication reconciliation and 30 days of medications on discharge. The PTC with access to inpatient and outpatient records facilitated communication among settings/providers. Community pharmacists provided telephonic and face-to-face medication therapy management (MTM).
EVALUATION
The project was structured as a prospective, randomized controlled trial of pharmacist-led care coordination during transition from inpatient to community setting, with follow-up MTM by community pharmacists. In this intention-to-treat analysis, readmission rates were assessed with propensity adjustment. Drug therapy problems (DTPs) identified/resolved were assessed and reported through descriptive statistics.
RESULTS
Ninety-six patients were enrolled. Positive outcomes in overall reduced readmission rates were observed in the intervention group at 30, 60, 90, and 180 days, although statistical significance was not achieved because of limited enrollment. Approximately 60% participated in MTM postdischarge, with 453 interventions and 169 DTPs identified and addressed (98% > 1 DTP; 20% > 5 DTPs). Implementation experience includes PTC successes, new partnerships, and connectivity among all providers, as well as enrollment challenges, follow-up, and service delivery timeframe.
CONCLUSION

Radiomics approaches based on multiparametric MRI (mp-MRI) have shown high accuracy in prostate cancer (PCa) management. However, there is a need to apply radiomics to the preoperative prediction of extracapsular extension (ECE).
PURPOSE
To develop and validate a radiomics signature to preoperatively predict the probability of ECE for patients with PCa, compared with the radiologists' interpretations.
STUDY TYPE
Retrospective.
POPULATION
In total, 210 patients with pathology-confirmed ECE status (101 positive, 109 negative) were enrolled.
FIELD STRENGTH/SEQUENCE
T 2 -weighted imaging (T 2 WI), diffusion-weighted imaging, and dynamic contrast-enhanced imaging were performed on two 3.0T MR scanners.
ASSESSMENT
A radiomics signature was constructed to predict the probability of ECE prior to radical prostatectomy (RP). In all, 17 stable radiomics features of 1619 extracted features based on T 2 WI were selected. The same images were also evaluated by three radiologists. The predictive performance of the radiomics signature was validated and compared with radiologists' interpretations.
STATISTICAL TESTS
A radiomics signature was developed by a least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression algorithm. Samples enrolled were randomly divided into two groups (143 for training and 67 for validation). Discrimination, calibration, and clinical usefulness were validated by analysis of the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, calibration curve, and the decision curve, respectively. The predictive performance was then compared with visual assessments of three radiologists.
RESULTS
The radiomics signature yielded an AUC of 0.902 and 0.883 in the training and validation cohort, respectively, and outperformed the visual assessment (AUC: 0.600-0.697) in the validation cohort. Pairwise comparisons demonstrated that the radiomics signature was more sensitive than the radiologists (75.00% vs. 46.88%-50.00%, all P < 0.05), but obtained comparable specificities (91.43% vs. (88.57%-94.29%); P ranged from 0.64-1.00).
DATA CONCLUSION
A radiomics signature was developed and validated that outperformed the radiologists' visual assessments in predicting ECE status.

1110,31086947,"Efficacy, Safety, and Immunogenicity of an Escherichia coli-Produced Bivalent Human Papillomavirus Vaccine: An Interim Analysis of a Randomized Clinical Trial.","BACKGROUND
The high cost and insufficient supply of human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccines have slowed the pace of controlling cervical cancer. A phase III clinical trial was conducted to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and immunogenicity of a novel Escherichia coli-produced bivalent HPV-16/18 vaccine.
METHODS
A multicenter, randomized, double-blind trial started on November 22, 2012 in China. In total, 7372 eligible women aged 18-45 years were age-stratified and randomly assigned to receive three doses of the test or control (hepatitis E) vaccine at months 0, 1, and 6. Co-primary endpoints included high-grade genital lesions and persistent infection (over 6 months) associated with HPV-16/18. The primary analysis was performed on a per-protocol susceptible population of individuals who were negative for relevant HPV type-specific neutralizing antibodies (at day 0) and DNA (at day 0 through month 7) and who received three doses of the vaccine. This report presents data from a prespecified interim analysis used for regulatory submission.
RESULTS
In the per-protocol cohort, the efficacies against high-grade genital lesions and persistent infection were 100.0% (95% confidence interval = 55.6% to 100.0%, 0 of 3306 in the vaccine group vs 10 of 3296 in the control group) and 97.8% (95% confidence interval = 87.1% to 99.9%, 1 of 3240 vs 45 of 3246), respectively. The side effects were mild. No vaccine-related serious adverse events were noted. Robust antibody responses for both types were induced and persisted for at least 42 months.

1111,31067489,Mnemonic strategy training increases neocortical activation in healthy older adults and patients with mild cognitive impairment.,"Learning and memory deficits characterize the diagnosis of amnestic mild cognitive impairment (aMCI), which is widely viewed as a clinical precursor to Alzheimer's type dementia. There is a growing interest in non-pharmacologic interventions, such as mnemonic strategies, for improving learning and memory in patients with aMCI as well as for maintaining functioning in healthy older adults. Using an ecologically relevant object-location association paradigm, we conducted a randomized, controlled, single-blind study in which healthy older adults and patients with aMCI were randomized to either mnemonic strategy training or a control group that was matched for stimulus exposure. We previously reported that mnemonic strategy training resulted in significantly greater learning and memory improvements compared to the matched exposure condition, in both aMCI patients and healthy controls. The current study examined changes in neocortical activation during encoding in a subset of participants who underwent functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) scanning both before and after training. To minimize potential confounds in between-group comparisons, we employed non-linear cortex based alignment and included only correctly encoded stimuli in our analyses. When re-encoding stimuli learned during training (i.e., trained stimuli), we found a general enhancement of activation in right prefrontal and parietal regions, possibly reflecting practice-related improvement in coordinate spatial processing in all but the aMCI exposure group. Left hemisphere activation was typically only evident in the mnemonic strategy trained participants, regardless of diagnostic status, with the ventrolateral prefrontal cortex appearing especially important for strategy use. While encoding relatively novel stimuli, both mnemonic strategy groups (aMCI patients and healthy controls) demonstrated increased activation in a subset of regions showing change for the trained stimuli, indicating a mnemonic strategy-induced change in the processing of new information. These findings could not be explained by repeated exposure since there was little to no activation overlap in the respective exposure control groups. The current results reinforce the potential benefits of cognitive interventions in these growing populations and indicate that neuroplastic change in key rostral and lateral prefrontal regions mediate this behavioral change.",2019,"There is a growing interest in non-pharmacologic interventions, such as mnemonic strategies, for improving learning and memory in patients with aMCI as well as for maintaining functioning in healthy older adults.","['amnestic mild cognitive impairment (aMCI', 'healthy older adults and patients with mild cognitive impairment', 'healthy older adults', 'healthy older adults and patients with aMCI']","['mnemonic strategy training', 'Mnemonic strategy training', 'functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) scanning']","['neocortical activation', 'learning and memory improvements', 'Left hemisphere activation']","[{'cui': 'C1270972', 'cui_str': 'Mild Neurocognitive Disorder'}, {'cui': 'C0677546', 'cui_str': 'Old episode (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0001675', 'cui_str': 'Adult'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}]","[{'cui': 'C0589105', 'cui_str': 'Strategy training (regime/therapy)'}, {'cui': 'C0376335', 'cui_str': 'fMRI'}]","[{'cui': 'C0025260', 'cui_str': 'Memory'}]",,0.0213011,"There is a growing interest in non-pharmacologic interventions, such as mnemonic strategies, for improving learning and memory in patients with aMCI as well as for maintaining functioning in healthy older adults.","[{'ForeName': 'Benjamin M', 'Initials': 'BM', 'LastName': 'Hampstead', 'Affiliation': 'Mental Health Service, VA Ann Arbor Healthcare System, Ann Arbor, MI, United States of America; Neuropsychology Section, Department of Psychiatry, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, MI, United States of America; Department of Rehabilitation Medicine, Emory University, Atlanta, GA, United States of America.

1112,30954691,Bolus therapy with 3% hypertonic saline or 0.9% saline in emergency department patients with suspected sepsis: A pilot randomised controlled trial.,"OBJECTIVE AND DESIGN
Hypertonic saline administered during fluid resuscitation may mitigate endothelial glycocalyx (EG) shedding and inflammation. The objective of this pilot randomised controlled trial was to measure the effect of hypertonic saline, compared to isotonic saline, on biomarkers of EG shedding and inflammation in emergency department patients with suspected sepsis.
METHODS
Patients received either 5 mL/kg of 3% saline (hypertonic group, n = 34) or 10 mL/kg of 0.9% saline (isotonic group, n = 31). Change in serum biomarker concentrations of syndecan-1, hyaluronan, intercellular adhesion molecule-1, vascular cell adhesion molecule-1, interleukin-6, -8, -10, interferon-γ, neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin and resistin were compared from baseline (T0) to after fluid (T1), 3 h (T3) and 12-24 h (T24) later, as was serum osmolality, using linear mixed effects models.
RESULTS
The hypertonic group had significantly increased mean serum osmolality compared to the isotonic group at T1 (P < .001) and T3 (P = .004). Minor differences were found in some biomarker outcomes, including a decreased fold-change in syndecan-1 at T1 (P = .012) and in interleukin-10 at T24 (P = .006) in the isotonic group, compared to the hypertonic group.
CONCLUSIONS
Although a single bolus of hypertonic saline increased serum osmolality, it did not reduce biomarkers of EG shedding or inflammation, compared to patients that received isotonic saline.

1113,32410657,OPTimal IMAging strategy in patients suspected of non-traumatic pulmonary disease at the emergency department: chest X-ray or ultra-low-dose chest CT (OPTIMACT) trial-statistical analysis plan.,"BACKGROUND
A chest X-ray is a standard imaging procedure in the diagnostic work-up of patients suspected of having non-traumatic pulmonary disease. Compared to a chest X-ray, an ultra-low-dose (ULD) chest computed tomography (CT) scan provides substantially more detailed information on pulmonary conditions. To what extent this translates into an improvement in patient outcomes and health care efficiency is yet unknown. The OPTimal IMAging strategy in patients suspected of non-traumatic pulmonary disease at the emergency department: chest X-ray or ultra-low-dose chest CT (OPTIMACT) study is a multicenter, pragmatic, non-inferiority randomized controlled trial designed to evaluate replacement of chest X-ray by ULD chest CT in the diagnostic work-up of such patients, in terms of patient-related health outcomes and costs. During randomly assigned periods of 1 calendar month, either conventional chest X-ray or ULD chest CT scan was used as the imaging strategy. This paper presents in detail the statistical analysis plan of the OPTIMACT trial, developed prior to data analysis.
METHODS/RESULTS
Functional health at 28 days is the primary clinical outcome. Functional health at 28 days is measured by the physical component summary scale of the Short Form (SF)-12 questionnaire version 1. Secondary outcomes are mental health (mental component summary scale of the SF-12), length of hospital stay, mortality within 28 days, quality-adjusted life year equivalent during the first 28 days (derived from the EuroQol five-dimension, five-level instrument), correct diagnoses at emergency department discharge as compared to the final post hoc diagnosis at day 28, number of patients in follow-up because of incidental findings on chest X-ray or ULD chest CT, and health care costs.
CONCLUSIONS
After this pragmatic trial we will have precise estimates of the effectiveness of replacing chest X-ray with ULD chest CT in terms of patient-related health outcomes and costs.

1114,31021358,"Effects of 12 Weeks of Essential Amino Acids (EAA)-Based Multi-Ingredient Nutritional Supplementation on Muscle Mass, Muscle Strength, Muscle Power and Fatigue in Healthy Elderly Subjects: A Randomized Controlled Double-Blind Study.","OBJECTIVE
To counteract muscle mass, muscle strength and power loss during aging, and to study age-related change of neuromuscular manifestation of fatigue in relation to nutritional supplementation.
DESIGN
randomized controlled double-blind study.
SETTING
Twice-daily consumption for 12 weeks of an Essential Amino Acids (EAA)-based multi-ingredient nutritional supplement containing EAA, creatine, vitamin D and Muscle Restore Complex®.
PARTICIPANTS
38 healthy elderly subjects (8 male, 30 female; age: 68.91±4.60 years; body weight: 69.40±15.58 kg; height: 1.60±0.09 m) were randomized and allocated in supplement (SUPP) or placebo (PLA) group. Mean Measurements: Vitamin D blood level; Appendicular Lean Mass (ALM); Visceral Adipose Tissue (VAT); Maximal Voluntary Contraction (MVC) and Peak Power (PP); myoelectric descriptors of fatigue: Fractal Dimension and Conduction Velocity initial values (FD iv, CV iv), their rates of change (FD slopes, CV slopes) and the Time to perform the Task (TtT). Mean Results: Significant changes were found in SUPP compared to baseline: Vitamin D (+8.73 ng/ml; p<0.001); ALM (+0.34 kg; p<0.001); VAT (-76.25 g; p<0.001); MVC (+0.52 kg; p<0.001); PP (+4.82 W; p<0.001). Between group analysis (SUPP Vs. PLA) showed improvements: vitamin D blood levels (+11,72 ng/ml; p<0.001); Legs FFM (+443.7 g; p<0.05); ALM (+0.53 kg; p<0.05); MVC (+1.38 kg; p<0.05); PP (+9.87 W; p<0.05). No statistical changes were found for FD iv, CV iv, FD and CV slopes and TtT, either compared to baseline or between groups. Significant correlations between mean differences in SUPP group were also found.
CONCLUSION
The study demonstrates that in healthy elderly subjects an EAA-based multi-ingredient nutritional supplementation of 12 weeks is not effective to change myoelectric manifestation of fatigue and TtT failure but can positively affect muscle mass, muscle strength, muscle power and VAT, counterbalancing more than one year of age-related loss of muscle mass and strength.",2019,"PLA) showed improvements: vitamin D blood levels (+11,72 ng/ml; p<0.001); Legs FFM (+443.7 g; p<0.05); ALM (+0.53 kg; p<0.05); MVC (+1.38 kg; p<0.05); PP (+9.87 W; p<0.05).","['38 healthy elderly subjects (8 male, 30 female; age: 68.91±4.60 years; body weight: 69.40±15.58 kg; height: 1.60±0.09 m', 'Healthy Elderly Subjects', 'healthy elderly subjects']","['Essential Amino Acids (EAA)-based multi-ingredient nutritional supplement containing EAA, creatine, vitamin D and Muscle Restore Complex®', 'Essential Amino Acids (EAA)-Based Multi-Ingredient Nutritional Supplementation', 'supplement (SUPP) or placebo (PLA', 'PLA']","['Legs FFM', 'SUPP', 'improvements: vitamin D blood levels', 'Mean Measurements: Vitamin D blood level; Appendicular Lean Mass (ALM); Visceral Adipose Tissue (VAT); Maximal Voluntary Contraction (MVC) and Peak Power (PP); myoelectric descriptors of fatigue: Fractal Dimension and Conduction Velocity initial values (FD iv, CV iv), their rates of change (FD slopes, CV slopes) and the Time to perform the Task (TtT', 'FD iv, CV iv, FD and CV slopes and TtT', 'Muscle Mass, Muscle Strength, Muscle Power and Fatigue']","[{'cui': 'C0001792', 'cui_str': 'Elderly'}, {'cui': 'C0086582', 'cui_str': 'Males'}, {'cui': 'C0086287', 'cui_str': 'Females'}, {'cui': 'C0439234', 'cui_str': 'year (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0005910', 'cui_str': 'Body Weight'}]","[{'cui': 'C0002525', 'cui_str': 'Amino Acids, Essential'}, {'cui': 'C0178499', 'cui_str': 'Base'}, {'cui': 'C3266262', 'cui_str': 'Multi'}, {'cui': 'C0242295', 'cui_str': 'Dietary Supplementations'}, {'cui': 'C0332256', 'cui_str': 'Containing (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0010286', 'cui_str': 'Creatine'}, {'cui': 'C0042866', 'cui_str': 'Vitamin D'}, {'cui': 'C0026845', 'cui_str': 'Muscle Tissue'}, {'cui': 'C0439855', 'cui_str': 'Complex (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0242297', 'cui_str': 'Nutritional supplement'}, {'cui': 'C1696465', 'cui_str': 'placebo'}]","[{'cui': 'C0042866', 'cui_str': 'Vitamin D'}, {'cui': 'C0005768'}, {'cui': 'C0456079', 'cui_str': 'Level (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0444504', 'cui_str': 'Mean (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0242485', 'cui_str': 'Measurement procedure'}, {'cui': 'C1306372', 'cui_str': 'Mass, a measure of quantity of matter (property) (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C1563740', 'cui_str': 'Visceral Fat'}, {'cui': 'C0205289', 'cui_str': 'Maximal (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0439656', 'cui_str': 'Voluntary (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C1140999', 'cui_str': 'Contraction (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C0444505', 'cui_str': 'Peak (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0282354', 'cui_str': 'Descriptors'}, {'cui': 'C0015672', 'cui_str': 'Fatigue'}, {'cui': 'C0206163', 'cui_str': 'Fractals'}, {'cui': 'C0439534', 'cui_str': 'Dimensions (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0234084', 'cui_str': 'Conduction rate of nerve cell and nerve fiber, function (observable entity)'}, {'cui': 'C0205265', 'cui_str': 'Initial (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C1273875', 'cui_str': 'Values (community)'}, {'cui': 'C0047247', 'cui_str': 'ANDS'}, {'cui': 'C0240417', 'cui_str': 'Form of muscle (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C0517349', 'cui_str': 'Muscle Strength'}, {'cui': 'C0427052', 'cui_str': 'Finding of power of skeletal muscle'}]",38.0,0.230669,"PLA) showed improvements: vitamin D blood levels (+11,72 ng/ml; p<0.001); Legs FFM (+443.7 g; p<0.05); ALM (+0.53 kg; p<0.05); MVC (+1.38 kg; p<0.05); PP (+9.87 W; p<0.05).","[{'ForeName': 'M', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Negro', 'Affiliation': ""Giuseppe D'Antona, CRIAMS-Sport Medicine Centre, University of Pavia, Voghera, Italy, gdantona@unipv.it.""}, {'ForeName': 'S', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Perna', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'D', 'Initials': 'D', 'LastName': 'Spadaccini', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'L', 'Initials': 'L', 'LastName': 'Castelli', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'L', 'Initials': 'L', 'LastName': 'Calanni', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'M', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Barbero', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'C', 'Initials': 'C', 'LastName': 'Cescon', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'M', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Rondanelli', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'G', 'Initials': 'G', 'LastName': ""D'Antona"", 'Affiliation': ''}]","The journal of nutrition, health & aging",['10.1007/s12603-019-1163-4']
1115,31075459,Design of the PReferences for Open Versus Endovascular Repair of Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm (PROVE-AAA) Trial.,"For patients with abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA), randomized trials have found endovascular AAA repair (EVAR) is associated with lower perioperative morbidity and mortality than open surgical repair (OSR). However, OSR has fewer long-term aneurysm-related complications, such as endoleak or late rupture. Patients treated with EVAR and OSR have similar survival rates within two years after surgery, and OSR does not require intensive surveillance. Few have examined if patient preferences are aligned with the type of treatment they receive for their AAA. Although many assume that patients may universally prefer the less-invasive nature of EVAR, our preliminary work suggests that patients who value the lower risk of late complications may prefer OSR. In this study, called The PReferences for Open Versus Endovascular Repair of Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm (PROVE-AAA) trial, we describe a cluster-randomized trial to test if a decision aid can better align patients' preferences and their treatment type for AAA. Patients enrolled in the study are candidates for either endovascular or open repair and are followed up at VA hospitals by vascular surgery teams who regularly perform both types of repair. In Aim 1, we will determine patients' preferences for endovascular or open repair and identify domains associated with each repair type. In Aim 2, we will assess alignment between patients' preferences and the repair type elected and then compare the impact of a decision aid on this alignment between the intervention and control groups. This study will help us to accomplish two goals. First, we will better understand the factors that affect patient preference when choosing between EVAR and OSR. Second, we will better understand if a decision aid can help patients be more likely to receive the treatment strategy they prefer for their AAA. Study enrollment began on June 1, 2017. Between June 1, 2017 and November 1, 2018, we have enrolled 178 of a total goal of 240 veterans from 20 VA medical centers and their vascular surgery teams across the country. We anticipate completing enrollment in PROVE-AAA in June 2019, and study analyses will be performed thereafter.",2020,"Patients treated with EVAR and OSR have similar survival rates within two years following surgery, and OSR does not require intensive surveillance.","['Patients enrolled in the study are candidates for either endovascular or open repair, and are followed at VA hospitals by vascular surgery teams who regularly perform both types of repair', 'Between June 1, 2017 and November 1, 2018, we have enrolled 178 of a total goal of 240 Veterans from 20 VA Medical Centers and their vascular surgery teams across the country', 'patients with abdominal aortic aneurysm', ""patients' preferences for endovascular or open repair and identify domains associated with each repair type""]","['endovascular AAA repair (EVAR', 'EVAR and OSR']",['survival rates'],"[{'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C0557651', 'cui_str': 'Study (environment)'}, {'cui': 'C0175566', 'cui_str': 'Patent (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0374711', 'cui_str': 'Surgical repair (procedure)'}, {'cui': 'C0332282', 'cui_str': 'Following (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C1510665', 'cui_str': 'Hospital environment (environment)'}, {'cui': 'C3714645', 'cui_str': 'Vascular surgery'}, {'cui': 'C0884358', 'cui_str': 'Performed'}, {'cui': 'C0449521', 'cui_str': 'Type of repair (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0018017', 'cui_str': 'Goals'}, {'cui': 'C0042610', 'cui_str': 'Veterans'}, {'cui': 'C0565990', 'cui_str': 'Medical center (environment)'}, {'cui': 'C0047247', 'cui_str': 'ANDS'}, {'cui': 'C0454664', 'cui_str': 'Country (geographic location)'}, {'cui': 'C0162871', 'cui_str': 'Aortic Aneurysm, Abdominal'}, {'cui': 'C0558295', 'cui_str': 'Preferences (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0205396', 'cui_str': 'Identified (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C3541951', 'cui_str': 'Domain'}, {'cui': 'C0332281', 'cui_str': 'Associated with (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0441704', 'cui_str': 'Typings (qualifier value)'}]","[{'cui': 'C0374711', 'cui_str': 'Surgical repair (procedure)'}]","[{'cui': 'C0038954', 'cui_str': 'Survival Rate'}]",,0.15694,"Patients treated with EVAR and OSR have similar survival rates within two years following surgery, and OSR does not require intensive surveillance.","[{'ForeName': 'Jesse A', 'Initials': 'JA', 'LastName': 'Columbo', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Surgery and VA Outcomes Group, White River Junction VA Medical Center, White River Junction, VT.'}, {'ForeName': 'Ravinder', 'Initials': 'R', 'LastName': 'Kang', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Surgery and VA Outcomes Group, White River Junction VA Medical Center, White River Junction, VT.'}, {'ForeName': 'Emily L', 'Initials': 'EL', 'LastName': 'Spangler', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Vascular Surgery, Birmingham VA Medical Center, Birmingham, AL.'}, {'ForeName': 'Karina', 'Initials': 'K', 'LastName': 'Newhall', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Surgery and VA Outcomes Group, White River Junction VA Medical Center, White River Junction, VT.'}, {'ForeName': 'Benjamin S', 'Initials': 'BS', 'LastName': 'Brooke', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Vascular Surgery, George E.

1116,30207423,A behaviour change intervention with lipid-based nutrient supplements had little impact on young child feeding indicators in rural Kenya.,"Poor infant and young child feeding (IYCF) practices are associated with linear growth faltering. Our objective was to evaluate the impact of a nutrition and water and sanitation for health intervention on three IYCF indicators-minimum dietary diversity (MDD), minimum meal frequency (MMF), and minimum acceptable diet (MAD) in Kenyan children. Households were randomized into one of eight groups: (a) active control; (b) passive control; (c) water quality (W); (d) sanitation (S); (e) handwashing (H); (f) combined Water, Sanitation, and Handwashing; (g) nutrition (N); and (h) combined WSH + N. In the N and WSH + N arms, community-based promoters counselled households on optimal IYCF practices, and small-quantity lipid-based nutrient supplements (SQ-LNS) were provided to children 6-24 months of age. Twelve months (Year 1) and 24 months (Year 2) after interventions began, enumerators surveyed mothers to ascertain IYCF practices. We made pairwise comparisons of each intervention arm versus the active control arm using log binomial models. In total, 3,652 caretakers were surveyed at Year 1 and 4,987 caretakers at Year 2. Compared with the active control, there were no differences in any of the arms in MDD, MMF, or MAD, aside from an increase in MDD at Year 1 in the nutrition only arm but not in the combined WSH + N arm (N: 68%; WSH + N: 61%; C: 61%; N arm prevalence ratio: 1.13 95% CI [1.01, 1.25]).

1117,31609774,Vasopressin Versus Norepinephrine for the Management of Septic Shock in Cancer Patients: The VANCS II Randomized Clinical Trial.,"OBJECTIVES
Previous trials suggest that vasopressin may improve outcomes in patients with vasodilatory shock. The aim of this study was to evaluate whether vasopressin could be superior to norepinephrine to improve outcomes in cancer patients with septic shock.
DESIGN
Single-center, randomized, double-blind clinical trial, and meta-analysis of randomized trials.
SETTING
ICU of a tertiary care hospital.
PATIENTS
Two-hundred fifty patients 18 years old or older with cancer and septic shock.
INTERVENTIONS
Patients were assigned to either vasopressin or norepinephrine as first-line vasopressor therapy. An updated meta-analysis was also conducted including randomized trials published until October 2018.
MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS
The primary outcome was all-cause mortality at 28 days after randomization. Prespecified secondary outcomes included 90-days all-cause mortality rate; number of days alive and free of advanced organ support at day 28; and Sequential Organ Failure Assessment score 24 hours and 96 hours after randomization. We also measure the prevalence of adverse effects in 28 days. A total of 250 patients were randomized. The primary outcome was observed in 71 patients (56.8%) in the vasopressin group and 66 patients (52.8%) in the norepinephrine group (p = 0.52). There were no significant differences in 90-day mortality (90 patients [72.0%] and 94 patients [75.2%], respectively; p = 0.56), number of days alive and free of advanced organ support, adverse events, or Sequential Organ Failure Assessment score.

1118,30986760,The hospital-based evaluation of laxative prophylaxis in ICU (HELP-ICU): A pilot cluster-crossover randomized clinical trial.,"PURPOSE
Prophylactic laxative regimens may prevent constipation but may increase diarrhea and subsequent rectal tube insertion. Our aim was to compare three prophylactic laxative regimens on the rate of rectal tube insertion (primary outcome) and major constipation- or diarrhea-associated complications.
MATERIAL AND METHODS
We conducted a cluster-crossover trial. Three pods in a single ICU were each randomized to one of three regimens for four months with rolling cross-over. All mechanically-ventilated and enterally-fed adult patients received either regimen: A) one coloxyl with senna BD from day one; B) two coloxyl with senna +20 ml lactulose BD commencing on day 3; or C) two coloxyl with senna tablets +20 ml lactulose BD commencing on day 6.
RESULTS
We enrolled 570 patients (A = 170, B = 205, C = 195) with similar baseline features. Overall, 53 (9.3%) patients received a rectal tube, and insertion rate was not statistically different between the three regimens (A = 12.9%, B = 7.8%, C = 7.7%; p = 0.15). The proportions of patients with other major constipation- or diarrhea-associated complications were similar, as were major patient-centred outcomes.

1119,31083052,Moderators of Response to Cognitive Behavior Therapy for Major Depression in Patients With Heart Failure.,"OBJECTIVE
Although cognitive behavior therapy (CBT) is efficacious for major depression in patients with heart failure (HF), approximately half of patients do not remit after CBT. To identify treatment moderators that may help guide treatment allocation strategies and serve as new treatment targets, we performed a secondary analysis of a randomized clinical trial. Based on evidence of their prognostic relevance, we evaluated whether clinical and activity characteristics moderate the effects of CBT.
METHODS
Participants were randomized to enhanced usual care (UC) alone or CBT plus enhanced UC. The single-blinded outcomes were 6-month changes in Beck Depression Inventory total scores and remission (defined as a Beck Depression Inventory ≤ 9). Actigraphy was used to assess daily physical activity patterns. We performed analyses to identify the specific activity and clinical moderators of the effects of CBT in 94 adults (mean age = 58, 49% female) with HF and major depressive disorder.
RESULTS
Patients benefited more from CBT (versus UC) if they had the following: more medically severe HF (i.e., a higher New York Heart Association class or a lower left ventricular ejection fraction), more stable activity patterns, wider active periods, and later evening settling times. These individual moderator effects were small (|r| = 0.10-0.21), but combining the moderators yielded a medium moderator effect size (r = 0.38; 95% CI = 0.20-0.52).
CONCLUSIONS
These findings suggest that increasing the cross-daily stability of activity patterns, and prolonging the daily active period, might help increase the efficacy of CBT. Given moderating effects of HF severity measures, research is also needed to clarify and address factors in patients with less severe HF that diminish the efficacy of CBT.

1120,31074184,Acetazolamide to increase natriuresis in congestive heart failure at high risk for diuretic resistance.,"AIMS
To investigate the effects of acetazolamide on natriuresis, decongestion, kidney function and neurohumoral activation in acute heart failure (AHF).
METHODS AND RESULTS
This prospective, two-centre study included 34 AHF patients on loop diuretics with volume overload. All had a serum sodium concentration < 135 mmol/L and/or serum urea/creatinine ratio > 50 and/or an admission serum creatinine increase of > 0.3 mg/dL compared to baseline. Patients were randomised towards acetazolamide 250-500 mg daily plus bumetanide 1-2 mg bid vs. high-dose loop diuretics (bumetanide bid with daily dose twice the oral maintenance dose). The primary endpoint was natriuresis after 24 h. Natriuresis after 24 h was similar in the combinational treatment vs. loop diuretic only arm (264 ± 126 vs. 234 ± 133 mmol; P = 0.515). Loop diuretic efficiency, defined as natriuresis corrected for loop diuretic dose, was higher in the group receiving acetazolamide (84 ± 46 vs. 52 ± 42 mmol/mg bumetanide; P = 0.048). More patients in the combinational treatment arm had an increase in serum creatinine levels > 0.3 mg/dL (P = 0.046). N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide reduction and peak neurohumoral activation within 72 h were comparable among treatment arms. There was a non-significant trend towards lower all-cause mortality or heart failure readmissions in the group receiving acetazolamide with low-dose loop diuretics vs. high-dose loop diuretic monotherapy (P = 0.098).
CONCLUSION
Addition of acetazolamide increases the natriuretic response to loop diuretics compared to an increase in loop diuretic dose in AHF at high risk for diuretic resistance.

1121,31736279,Comparison of macular buckling and vitrectomy for the treatment of macular schisis and associated macular detachment in high myopia: a randomized clinical trial.,"OBJECTIVE
To compare the efficacy and safety of macular buckling and vitrectomy for myopic traction maculopathy showing macular schisis (MS) and associated macular detachment (MD) but without full-thickness macular hole (FTMH).
DESIGN
Prospective, randomized, parallel, open-label study.
METHODS
Patients were randomly assigned to either buckling or vitrectomy group. Macular buckling and intravitreal C3F8 gas injection were performed in the buckling group. Small gauge vitrectomy, internal limiting membrane peeling (ILMP) and C3F8 gas tamponade were performed in the vitrectomy group. The patients were followed for 12 months.
MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES
Best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) at 12 months.
RESULTS
A total of 85 patients were randomized, 80 eyes were included (41 receiving buckling, 39 received vitrectomy), and 78 patients completed the study. There were less eyes determined as surgical failure and required a second surgery in the buckling group than vitrectomy the group (2.4% versus 18.4%, p = 0.021). After surgery, macular buckling achieved more improvement in BCVA (+21.7 versus +4.5 Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) letters, p = 0.002). FTMH development was observed in only 1 (2.4%) eye, after removing of the implant due to recurrent conjunctival erosion, in the buckling group and 10 (26.3%) eyes (seven with-, three without MD) in the vitrectomy group (p < 0.001). More eyes developed cataracts in the vitrectomy group than did in the buckling group (28.9% versus 7.5%, p = 0.014). Macular buckling-associated strabismus (esotropia), binocular diplopia and implant exposure were observed in limited cases.

1122,31056441,"CFTR activity is enhanced by the novel corrector GLPG2222, given with and without ivacaftor in two randomized trials.","BACKGROUND
Several treatment approaches in cystic fibrosis (CF) aim to correct CF transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) function; the efficacy of each approach is dependent on the mutation(s) present. A need remains for more effective treatments to correct functional deficits caused by the F508del mutation.
METHODS
Two placebo-controlled, phase 2a studies evaluated GLPG2222, given orally once daily for 29 days, in subjects homozygous for F508del (FLAMINGO) or heterozygous for F508del and a gating mutation, receiving ivacaftor (ALBATROSS). The primary objective of both studies was to assess safety and tolerability. Secondary objectives included assessment of pharmacokinetics, and of the effect of GLPG2222 on sweat chloride concentrations, pulmonary function and respiratory symptoms.
RESULTS
Fifty-nine and 37 subjects were enrolled into FLAMINGO and ALBATROSS, respectively. Treatment-related treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) were reported by 29.2% (14/48) of subjects in FLAMINGO and 40.0% (12/30) in ALBATROSS; most were mild to moderate in severity and comprised primarily respiratory, gastrointestinal, and infection events. There were no deaths or discontinuations due to TEAEs. Dose-dependent decreases in sweat chloride concentrations were seen in GLPG2222-treated subjects (maximum decrease in FLAMINGO: -17.6 mmol/L [GLPG2222 200 mg], p < 0.0001; ALBATROSS: -7.4 mmol/L [GLPG2222 300 mg], p < 0.05). No significant effects on pulmonary function or respiratory symptoms were reported. Plasma GLPG2222 concentrations in CF subjects were consistent with previous studies in healthy volunteers and CF subjects.
CONCLUSIONS
GLPG2222 was well tolerated. Sweat chloride reductions support on-target enhancement of CFTR activity in subjects with F508del mutation(s). Significant improvements in clinical endpoints were not demonstrated. Observed safety results support further evaluation of GLPG2222, including in combination with other CFTR modulators.

1123,31362189,Cardiac output during targeted temperature management and renal function after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest.,"PURPOSE
After resuscitation from out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA), renal injury and hemodynamic instability are common. We aimed to assess the association between low cardiac output during targeted temperature management (TTM) and acute kidney injury (AKI) after OHCA.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
Single-center substudy of 171 patients included in the prospective, randomized TTM-trial. Hemodynamic evaluation was performed with serial measurements by pulmonary artery catheter. AKI was the primary endpoint and was defined according to the KDIGO-criteria.
RESULTS
Of 152 patients with available hemodynamic data, 49 (32%) had AKI and 21 (14%) had AKI with need for renal replacement therapy (RRT) in the first three days. During targeted temperature management, patients with AKI had higher heart rate (11 beats/min, p group < 0.0001), higher mean arterial pressure (MAP) (4 mmHg, p group = 0.001) and higher lactate (1 mmol/L, p group < 0.0001) compared to patients without AKI. However, there was no difference in cardiac index (p group = 0.25). In a multivariate logistic regression model, adjusting for potential confounders, MAP (p = .03), heart rate (p = .01) and lactate (p = .006), but not cardiac output, were independently associated with AKI.

1124,31389835,"Comparing the McGrath Mac Video Laryngoscope and Direct Laryngoscopy for Prehospital Emergency Intubation in Air Rescue Patients: A Multicenter, Randomized, Controlled Trial.","OBJECTIVES
Tracheal intubation in prehospital emergency care is challenging. The McGrath Mac Video Laryngoscope (Medtronic, Minneapolis, MN) has been proven to be a reliable alternative for in-hospital airway management. This trial compared the McGrath Mac Video Laryngoscope and direct laryngoscopy for the prehospital setting.
DESIGN
Multicenter, prospective, randomized, controlled equivalence trial.
SETTING
Oesterreichischer Automobil- und Touring Club (OEAMTC) Helicopter Emergency Medical Service in Austria, 18-month study period.
PATIENTS
Five-hundred fourteen adult emergency patients (≥ 18 yr old).
INTERVENTIONS
Helicopter Emergency Medical Service physicians followed the institutional algorithm, comprising a maximum of two tracheal intubation attempts with each device, followed by supraglottic, then surgical airway access in case of tracheal intubation failure. No restrictions were given for tracheal intubation indication.
MEASUREMENTS MAIN RESULTS
The Primary outcome was the rate of successful tracheal intubation; equivalence range was ± 6.5% of success rates. Secondary outcomes were the number of attempts to successful tracheal intubation, time to glottis passage and first end-tidal CO2 measurement, degree of glottis visualization, and number of problems. The success rate for the two devices was equivalent: direct laryngoscopy 98.5% (254/258), McGrath Mac Video Laryngoscope 98.1% (251/256) (difference, 0.4%; 99% CI, -2.58 to 3.39). There was no statistically significant difference with regard to tracheal intubation times, number of attempts or difficulty. The view to the glottis was significantly better, but the number of technical problems was increased with the McGrath Mac Video Laryngoscope. After a failed first tracheal intubation attempt, immediate switching of the device was significantly more successful than after the second attempt (90.5% vs 57.1%; p = 0.0003), regardless of the method.

1125,31707181,Modified gemcitabine and oxaliplatin or gemcitabine + cisplatin in unresectable gallbladder cancer: Results of a phase III randomised controlled trial.,"AIM
To determine equivalence of modified gemcitabine and oxaliplatin compared with gemcitabine and cisplatin in unresectable gallbladder cancer (GBC). Primary end-point was overall survival (OS).
METHODS
Open label, prospective, randomised phase III equivalence study. Inclusion criteria included histologically proven unresectable GBC, 18 years or older, adequate organ functions and Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group ≤2.
SAMPLE SIZE
108 patients were required in each arm to have an equivalence margin of ±2 months with power of 80%.
TREATMENT
Modified gemcitabine and oxaliplatin (mGemOx)-gemcitabine 900 mg/m2, oxaliplatin 80 mg/m2, maximum 6 cycles; gemcitabine + cisplatin (CisGem)-gemcitabine 1000 mg/m2, cisplatin 25 mg/m2, maximum 8 cycles, all day 1 and 8 every 3 weeks.
RESULTS
Two hundred sixty subjects were recruited between February 2011 and July 2015. Two hundred forty-three patients (119, mGemOx and 124, CisGem) received at least 1 dose and analysed for safety and efficacy (modified intention to treat). Median OS was 8·5 months for whole group (95% confidence interval [CI]: 7·9-9·1). Median OS in mGemOx was 9 months and 8·3 months in CisGem; p = 0·057 (hazard ratio = 0·78; 95% CI = 0·60-1·02). Restricted mean OS for follow-up limited to 30 months was 11·2 months (95% CI: 9·8-12·6) in mGemOx and 10·4 months (95% CI: 9·1-11·7) in CisGem. Difference of the mean was 0·8 months with 95% CI, exceeding 2 months (-1·1 to 2·7), hence rejecting equivalence. Peripheral neuropathy, thrombocytopaenia in mGemOx and nephrotoxicity was higher with CisGem.
CONCLUSION
This trial failed to show equivalence of eight cycles of CisGem to six cycles of mGemOx. Numerically OS was better with mGemOx. Toxicities were different. The trial was not powered to answer superiority.

1126,31053619,Heat-moulded versus custom-made mandibular advancement devices for obstructive sleep apnoea: a randomised non-inferiority trial.,"RATIONALE
Custom-made mandibular advancement devices (MADs) are reported as providing higher efficacy rates compared with thermoplastic heat-moulded MADs but at the price of higher costs and treatment delays.
OBJECTIVE
To determine whether a thermoplastic heat-moulded titratable MAD (ONIRIS; ONIRIS SAS, Rueil Malmaison, France) is non-inferior to a custom-made acrylic titratable MAD (TALI; ONIRIS SAS, Rueil Malmaison, France) for obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA).
METHODS
We conducted a multicentre, open, randomised controlled trial of patients with OSA refusing or not tolerating continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP). Participants were randomly assigned to a thermoplastic heat-moulded titratable device or a custom-made acrylic device for 2 months with stratification by centre and OSA severity. The non-inferiority primary outcome was a ≥50% reduction in apnoea-hypopnoea index (AHI) or achieving AHI <10 events/hour at 2 months. The non-inferiority margin was preset as a difference between groups of 20% for the primary outcome in the per-protocol analysis.
MAIN RESULTS
Of 198 patients (mean age 51 [SD, 12] years; 138 [72.6%] men; mean body mass index 26 [SD, 2.7] kg/m 2 ; mean AHI 26.6/hour [SD, 10.4]), 100 received TALI and 98 ONIRIS. In per-protocol analysis, the response rate was 51.7% in the TALI group versus 53.6% in the ONIRIS group (absolute difference 1.9%; 90% CI: 11% to 15%, within the non-inferiority margin). Effectiveness was the same for severity, symptoms, quality of life and blood pressure reduction. Patients in ONIRIS group reported more side effects and adherence was slightly better with TALI.
CONCLUSION
In patients with OSA refusing or not tolerating CPAP, the thermoplastic heat-moulded titratable MAD was non-inferior in the short-term to the custom-made acrylic MAD.

1127,31047956,Association of Angiotensin Modulators With the Course of Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis.,"BACKGROUND
Angiotensin peptides have been implicated in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) pathogenesis. Angiotensin modulators are used to treat arterial hypertension, a frequent comorbidity of IPF. This post hoc analysis evaluated associations of antihypertensive treatments with disease-related outcomes in IPF.
METHODS
All patients randomized to placebo (n = 624) in the CAPACITY and ASCEND studies were categorized by antihypertensive treatment at baseline. Outcomes of disease progression (first occurrence of ≥ 10% absolute decline in % predicted FVC, ≥ 50-m decline in 6-min walk distance, or death) and all-cause mortality were assessed over 52 weeks.
RESULTS
At baseline, 111 and 121 patients were receiving an angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEi) or an angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB), respectively; 392 were receiving neither. In multivariable analyses adjusted for differences in baseline characteristics compared with the non-ACEi/ARB group, ACEi treatment (hazard ratio [HR], 0.6 [95% CI, 0.4-0.9]; P = .026), but not ARB (HR, 0.9 [95% CI, 0.6-1.2]; P = .413), was associated with slower disease progression. Furthermore, the increase in all-cause mortality associated with cardiovascular disease was not observed in the ACEi group (HR, 1.1 [95% CI, 0.5-2.9]; P = .782), which presented a similar percentage of IPF-related mortality as the non-ACEi/ARB group (3.6% vs 3.6%). In contrast, patients in the ARB group had greater risk of all-cause mortality (HR, 2.5 [95% CI, 1.2-5.2]). These observations were validated in a pooled analysis that included patients from the INSPIRE trial.
CONCLUSIONS
Prospective clinical trials are needed to evaluate whether angiotensin modulators may be beneficial to clinical outcomes in IPF.

1128,32410683,Effect of ulinastatin on post-operative blood loss and allogeneic transfusion in patients receiving cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass: a prospective randomized controlled study with 10-year follow-up.,"BACKGROUND
Major bleeding and allogeneic transfusion leads to negative outcomes in patients receiving cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). Ulinastatin, a urine trypsin inhibitor, relieves systemic inflammation and improves coagulation profiles with however sparse evidence of its effects on blood loss and allogeneic transfusion in this specific population.
METHODS
In this prospective randomized controlled trial, 426 consecutive patients receiving open heart surgery with CPB were randomly assigned into three groups to receive ulinastatin (group U, n = 142), tranexamic acid (group T, n = 143) or normal saline (group C, n = 141). The primary outcome was the total volume of post-operative bleeding and the secondary outcome included the volume and exposure of allogeneic transfusion, the incidence of stroke, post-operative myocardial infarction, renal failure, respiratory failure and all-cause mortality. A ten-year follow-up was carried on to evaluate long-term safety.
RESULTS
Compared with placebo, ulinastatin significantly reduced the volume of post-operative blood loss within 24 h (688.39 ± 393.55 ml vs 854.33 ± 434.03 ml MD - 165.95 ml, 95%CI - 262.88 ml to - 69.01 ml, p < 0.001) and the volume of allogeneic erythrocyte transfusion (2.57 ± 3.15 unit vs 3.73 ± 4.21 unit, MD-1.16 unit, 95%CI - 2.06 units to - 0.26 units, p = 0.002). The bleeding and transfusion outcomes were comparable between the ulinastatin group and the tranexamic acid group. In-hospital outcomes and 10-year follow-up showed no statistical difference in mortality and major morbidity among groups.
CONCLUSIONS
Ulinastatin reduced post-operative blood loss and allogeneic erythrocyte transfusion in heart surgery with CPB. The mortality and major morbidity was comparable among the groups shown by the 10-year follow-up.

1129,32410684,A sex education program for teachers of preschool children: a quasi-experimental study in Iran.,"BACKGROUND
Sex education is an important educational dimension. Together with families, teachers play a significant role in providing sex education to children. However, in most cases, they do not have enough information on this topic. The present study aimed to determine the effects of a preschool sex education program on preschool teachers' knowledge and attitude.
METHODS
In this quasi-experimental study, 80 teachers working at preschools in Tehran, Iran, were randomly allocated to experimental and control groups. The educational program was provided in two 90-min sessions for the experimental group while the control group received no intervention. A self-designed knowledge and attitude questionnaire was completed by both groups before and 1 month after the intervention. This questionnaire evaluated knowledge and attitude in six domains of principles of sex education, sexual identity, stages of development and proper methods of sex education, sex-related questions, masturbation, and sexual abuse. Data were analysed in SPSS 18 using descriptive statistics as well as independent samples t-test, paired-samples t-test, chi-squared test, and ANCOVA at p < 0.05.
RESULTS
Mean scores of knowledge and attitude in all dimensions showed a significant increase in the experimental group following the educational intervention. However, no difference was observed in the control group. Following the educational intervention, mean scores of teachers' knowledge and attitude in all six domains showed a significant difference with that of the control group (p < 0.001).
CONCLUSIONS
Results revealed that the sex education program can promote the knowledge and attitude of preschool teachers in all domains.

1130,31729933,Psychological and endocannabinoid responses to aerobic exercise in substance use disorder patients.,"Background : Exercise has been examined as an adjunctive treatment for substance use disorders (SUDs), yet few exercise interventions have been conducted among patients undergoing intensive outpatient (IOP) treatment, who may be the most vulnerable to relapse and for whom exercise could provide the most benefits. This study examined the effects of aerobic exercise, in addition to IOP treatment, on psychological variables and endocannabinoids in individuals with SUDs. Methods : Twenty-one SUD patients (mean age 35 years) were recruited from local IOPs. Participants were randomized to either treatment-as-usual (TAU, at their outpatient clinic) or TAU plus aerobic exercise training (EX). EX participants engaged in supervised, moderate-intensity exercise for 30 min, 3 times/week for 6 weeks. TAU participants came into the laboratory once per week for assessments and a 30-min quiet rest session. Participants provided blood samples and completed questionnaires evaluating substance use, mood states, depression, anxiety, perceived stress, self-efficacy to abstain from substance use, and craving. Data were analyzed with Mann-Whitney U tests or mixed model ANOVAs to determine group differences in outcomes acutely and over 6 weeks. Results : Over 6 weeks, there were reductions in perceived stress ( p < 0.01) and craving ( p < 0.05) for both groups. There were no group differences in abstinence rates or changes from baseline in self-efficacy, depression, or anxiety ( p > 0.05). Acutely, both exercise and quiet rest sessions led to reductions in craving, tension, depression, anger, confusion, and total mood disturbance (all p s < 0.05). In addition, the EX group experienced acute increases in vigor and circulating concentrations of the endocannabinoid, anandamide ( p < 0.01). Conclusions : An adjunctive aerobic exercise program during SUD treatment was associated with similar reductions in perceived stress and drug craving as standard care. Thirty minutes of exercise or quiet rest led to acute improvements in mood, but exercise produced the additional benefit of increases in vigor and circulating anandamide.",2019,"There were no group differences in abstinence rates or changes from baseline in self-efficacy, depression, or anxiety ( p > 0.05).","['patients undergoing intensive outpatient (IOP) treatment', 'Twenty-one SUD patients (mean age 35\u2009years', 'substance use disorder patients', 'individuals with SUDs']","['adjunctive aerobic exercise program', 'TAU plus aerobic exercise training (EX', 'exercise or quiet rest', 'exercise and quiet rest sessions', 'aerobic exercise']","['craving', 'blood samples and completed questionnaires evaluating substance use, mood states, depression, anxiety, perceived stress, self-efficacy to abstain from substance use, and craving', 'perceived stress and drug craving', 'self-efficacy, depression, or anxiety', 'abstinence rates', 'vigor and circulating anandamide', 'vigor and circulating concentrations', 'perceived stress', 'craving, tension, depression, anger, confusion, and total mood disturbance']","[{'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C0029921', 'cui_str': 'Out-patients'}, {'cui': 'C0087111', 'cui_str': 'Therapy'}, {'cui': 'C3715213', 'cui_str': '21 (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0444504', 'cui_str': 'Mean (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0001792', 'cui_str': 'Elderly'}, {'cui': 'C0439234', 'cui_str': 'year (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0038586', 'cui_str': 'Substance Use Disorders'}, {'cui': 'C0237401', 'cui_str': 'Individual (person)'}]","[{'cui': 'C0001701', 'cui_str': 'Exercise, Aerobic'}, {'cui': 'C2728259', 'cui_str': 'Program'}, {'cui': 'C1720655', 'cui_str': 'Tau'}, {'cui': 'C0332287', 'cui_str': 'With (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0220931', 'cui_str': 'Functional training'}, {'cui': 'C0015259', 'cui_str': 'Physical Activity'}, {'cui': 'C0439654', 'cui_str': 'Quiet (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0035253', 'cui_str': 'Rest'}]","[{'cui': 'C0870371', 'cui_str': 'Craving'}, {'cui': 'C0178913', 'cui_str': 'Blood specimen'}, {'cui': 'C0205197', 'cui_str': 'Complete (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0034394', 'cui_str': 'Questionnaires'}, {'cui': 'C0237123', 'cui_str': 'Substance use'}, {'cui': 'C0026516', 'cui_str': 'Mood'}, {'cui': 'C1301808', 'cui_str': 'State'}, {'cui': 'C0011581', 'cui_str': 'Neurosis, Depressive'}, {'cui': 'C0003467', 'cui_str': 'Anxiety'}, {'cui': 'C0038435', 'cui_str': 'Stress - value'}, {'cui': 'C0600564', 'cui_str': 'Self Efficacy'}, {'cui': 'C0556446', 'cui_str': 'Craves for drugs (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C0175630', 'cui_str': 'Circulating (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0211726', 'cui_str': 'anandamide (20.4,n-6)'}, {'cui': 'C0086045', 'cui_str': 'Concentration'}, {'cui': 'C0233494', 'cui_str': 'Tension (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C0002957', 'cui_str': 'Anger'}, {'cui': 'C0009676', 'cui_str': 'Confusional State'}, {'cui': 'C0439810', 'cui_str': 'Total (qualifier value)'}]",21.0,0.0933737,"There were no group differences in abstinence rates or changes from baseline in self-efficacy, depression, or anxiety ( p > 0.05).","[{'ForeName': 'Angelique G', 'Initials': 'AG', 'LastName': 'Brellenthin', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Kinesiology, University of Wisconsin, Madison, Wisconsin, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Kevin M', 'Initials': 'KM', 'LastName': 'Crombie', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Kinesiology, University of Wisconsin, Madison, Wisconsin, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Cecilia J', 'Initials': 'CJ', 'LastName': 'Hillard', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Medical College of Wisconsin, Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Randall T', 'Initials': 'RT', 'LastName': 'Brown', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Family Medicine, University of Wisconsin, Madison, Wisconsin, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Kelli F', 'Initials': 'KF', 'LastName': 'Koltyn', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Kinesiology, University of Wisconsin, Madison, Wisconsin, USA.'}]",Substance abuse,['10.1080/08897077.2019.1680480']
1131,32410694,"Long-term safety and tolerability of atabecestat (JNJ-54861911), an oral BACE1 inhibitor, in early Alzheimer's disease spectrum patients: a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study and a two-period extension study.","BACKGROUND
Atabecestat, a potent brain-penetrable inhibitor of BACE1 activity that reduces CSF amyloid beta (Aβ), was developed for oral treatment for Alzheimer's disease (AD). The long-term safety and effect of atabecestat on cognitive performance in participants with predementia AD in two phase 2 studies were assessed.
METHODS
In the placebo-controlled double-blind parent ALZ2002 study, participants aged 50 to 85 years were randomized (1:1:1) to placebo or atabecestat 10 or 50 mg once daily (later reduced to 5 and 25 mg) for 6 months. Participants entered ALZ2004, a 12-month treatment extension with placebo or atabecestat 10 or 25 mg, followed by an open-label phase. Safety, changes in CSF biomarker levels, brain volume, and effects on cognitive performance were assessed.
RESULTS
Of 114 participants randomized in ALZ2002, 99 (87%) completed, 90 entered the ALZ2004 double-blind phase, and 77 progressed to the open-label phase. CSF Aβ fragments and sAPPβ were reduced dose-proportionately. Decreases in whole brain and hippocampal volumes were greater in participants with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) due to AD than in preclinical AD, but were not affected by treatment. In ALZ2004, change from baseline in RBANS trended toward worse scores for atabecestat versus placebo. Elevated liver enzyme adverse events reported in 12 participants on atabecestat resulted in dosage modification and increased frequency of safety monitoring. Treatment discontinuation normalized ALT or AST in all except one with pretreatment elevation, which remained mildly elevated. No case met ALT/AST > 3× ULN and total bilirubin > 2× ULN (Hy's law).
CONCLUSION

1132,30681720,Pharmacological Management of Delirium in the Intensive Care Unit: A Randomized Pragmatic Clinical Trial.,"BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVE
Delirium in the intensive care units (ICUs) is prevalent, with both delirium duration and delirium severity associated with adverse outcomes. We designed a pragmatic trial to test the efficacy of a pharmacological management of delirium (PMD) bundle in improving delirium/coma-free days and reducing delirium severity among ICU patients.
DESIGN
A randomized pragmatic clinical trial.
SETTING
Medical, surgical, and progressive ICUs of three tertiary care hospitals.
PARTICIPANTS
A total of 351 critically ill patients.
INTERVENTION
A multicomponent PMD bundle consisting of reducing the exposure to 20 definite anticholinergic medications and benzodiazepines and prescribing low-dose haloperidol.
MEASUREMENTS
The primary outcomes were delirium/coma-free days, measured through the Richmond Agitation-Sedation Scale and the Confusion Assessment Method for the ICU (CAM-ICU), and delirium severity, measured through Delirium Rating Scale-Revised-98 and the CAM-ICU-7. Secondary outcomes were in-hospital and posthospital discharge 30-day mortality, ICU and hospital lengths of stay, and delirium-related hospital complications.
RESULTS
We randomized 351 critically ill delirious patients (mean age = 59.3 years [SD = 16.9 years]; 52% female, 42% African Americans) to receive the PMD bundle or usual care. There were no significant differences in median delirium/coma-free days at day 8 (PMD vs usual care = 4 [interquartile range {IQR} = 2-7] days vs 5 [IQR = 1-7] days; P = .888) or at day 30 (PMD vs usual care = 26 [IQR 19-29] days vs 26 [IQR, 14-29] days; P = .991). There were no significant differences for decrease in delirium severity at day 8, but at hospital discharge, the intervention group showed a greater reduction in delirium severity (mean decrease in CAM-ICU-7 score for PMD vs usual care = 3.2 [SD = 3.3] vs 2.5 [SD = 3.2]; P = .046). No differences were observed between groups for ICU and hospital lengths of stay, mortality, and delirium-related hospital complications. Similar results were observed when analyses were limited to patients 65 years or older and 75 years or older.
CONCLUSION AND RELEVANCE
Implementing the PMD bundle in the ICU did not reduce delirium duration or severity among critically ill patients.

1133,31727915,Safety profile of sedative endoscopy including cognitive performance in liver cirrhosis: A double-blind randomized controlled trial.,"The indiscriminate use of sedative drugs during endoscopy can pose multiple risks including cognitive impairment in advanced liver cirrhosis. However, the data are scarce regarding which sedative drugs are safest in these populations. The aim of this study was to evaluate the safety profiles including cognitive performance among midazolam, propofol, and combination therapy in advanced cirrhotic patients. This double-blind randomized controlled study included 60 consecutive advanced cirrhotic patients who underwent upper gastrointestinal endoscopy. The Stroop application was used to screen for cognitive impairment. Patients were randomly assigned to one of 3 groups, midazolam, propofol, or the combination group, and underwent Stroop test before and two hours after the completion of endoscopy. Hemodynamic safety and the subjective satisfaction score were also evaluated. Patients did not show significant changes in on-time or off-time on the Stroop test before and two hours after sedatives, and there was no significant difference among the 3 treatment groups. Also, there were no significant vital sign changes after sedatives. Time-to-recovery was longest in midazolam group, and patient awakening and patient memory were highest in propofol group. However, all 3 groups showed no difference in patient satisfaction, but the combination group was more preferred in terms of subjective satisfaction by physicians. Factors affecting worsened Stroop speed after sedatives were older age, low education level and high MELD score. All sedative methods using midazolam, propofol, or combination therapy showed similar safety profile in advanced cirrhosis, and were not associated with increased risk of cognitive impairment.",2019,"Patients did not show significant changes in on-time or off-time on the Stroop test before and two hours after sedatives, and there was no significant difference among the 3 treatment groups.","['advanced cirrhotic patients', 'liver cirrhosis', 'advanced liver cirrhosis', '60 consecutive advanced cirrhotic patients who underwent upper gastrointestinal endoscopy']","['sedative endoscopy', 'midazolam, propofol, or combination therapy', 'midazolam', 'midazolam, propofol, and combination therapy', 'midazolam, propofol, or the combination group, and underwent Stroop test']","['Hemodynamic safety and the subjective satisfaction score', 'Time-to-recovery', 'cognitive performance', 'subjective satisfaction', 'risk of cognitive impairment', 'patient satisfaction', 'time or off-time on the Stroop test']","[{'cui': 'C0205179', 'cui_str': 'Advanced (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0439686', 'cui_str': 'Cirrhotic (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C0023890', 'cui_str': 'Hepatic Cirrhosis'}, {'cui': 'C0079304', 'cui_str': 'Esophagogastroduodenoscopy'}]","[{'cui': 'C0036557', 'cui_str': 'Sedatives'}, {'cui': 'C0014245', 'cui_str': 'Endoscopy'}, {'cui': 'C0026056', 'cui_str': 'Midazolam'}, {'cui': 'C0033487', 'cui_str': 'Propofol'}, {'cui': 'C0556895', 'cui_str': 'Combination therapy (regime/therapy)'}, {'cui': 'C0439745', 'cui_str': 'Grouped (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C2718024', 'cui_str': 'Stroop Task'}]","[{'cui': 'C0019010', 'cui_str': 'Hemodynamics'}, {'cui': 'C0036043', 'cui_str': 'Safety'}, {'cui': 'C0439655', 'cui_str': 'Subjective observation'}, {'cui': 'C0242428', 'cui_str': 'Satisfaction'}, {'cui': 'C0449820', 'cui_str': 'Scores (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C1632851', 'cui_str': 'Times'}, {'cui': 'C0035647', 'cui_str': 'Risk'}, {'cui': 'C0338656', 'cui_str': 'Cognitive Dysfunction'}, {'cui': 'C0030702', 'cui_str': 'Patient Satisfaction'}, {'cui': 'C2718024', 'cui_str': 'Stroop Task'}]",60.0,0.135558,"Patients did not show significant changes in on-time or off-time on the Stroop test before and two hours after sedatives, and there was no significant difference among the 3 treatment groups.","[{'ForeName': 'Jeong-Ju', 'Initials': 'JJ', 'LastName': 'Yoo', 'Affiliation': 'Division of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, Department of Internal Medicine, Soonchunhyang University school of medicine Bucheon Hospital, Bucheon, Korea.'}, {'ForeName': 'Hyeon Jeong', 'Initials': 'HJ', 'LastName': 'Goong', 'Affiliation': 'Division of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, Department of Internal Medicine, Soonchunhyang University school of medicine Bucheon Hospital, Bucheon, Korea.'}, {'ForeName': 'Ji Eun', 'Initials': 'JE', 'LastName': 'Moon', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Biostatistics, Clinical Trial Center, Soonchunhyang University Bucheon Hospital, Bucheon, Korea.'}, {'ForeName': 'Sang Gyune', 'Initials': 'SG', 'LastName': 'Kim', 'Affiliation': 'Division of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, Department of Internal Medicine, Soonchunhyang University school of medicine Bucheon Hospital, Bucheon, Korea.'}, {'ForeName': 'Young Seok', 'Initials': 'YS', 'LastName': 'Kim', 'Affiliation': 'Division of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, Department of Internal Medicine, Soonchunhyang University school of medicine Bucheon Hospital, Bucheon, Korea. liverkys@schmc.ac.kr.'}]",Scientific reports,['10.1038/s41598-019-52897-w']

1135,31036397,Everolimus Eluting Stents in Patients with Diabetes Mellitus and Chronic Kidney Disease: Insights from the TUXEDO Trial.,"BACKGROUND
Patients with diabetes and those with chronic kidney disease (CKD) are at increased risk of cardiovascular events. Everolimus eluting stents (EES) have been shown to be superior to paclitaxel eluting stents (PES) in patients with diabetes. However, it is not known if EES is as beneficial in diabetic patients with CKD compared with those without CKD.
METHODS AND RESULTS
Patients enrolled in the TUXEDO-India trial, which is a clinical trial of patients with diabetes and coronary artery disease (CAD) randomly assigned to EES vs. thin-strut PES (Taxus Element), with data on baseline renal function were selected. CKD was defined as an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) <60 ml/min/1.73 m 2 using the Cockcroft-Gault formula. Primary outcome was target vessel failure (TVF-defined as cardiac death, TV myocardial infarction (MI) or ischemia driven TV revascularization) at 1 year. Various secondary outcomes including stent thrombosis were evaluated. Among the 1821 patients with diabetes included in this analysis, 344 (19%) had CKD. In a propensity score adjusted analysis, patients with CKD had a significant increase in MACE (HR = 2.02; 95% CI 1.17-3.50; P = 0.01); death/MI/TVR (HR = 1.99; 95% CI 1.18-3.34; P = 0.009); death/MI (HR = 2.31; 95% CI 1.30-4.08; P = 0.004); cardiac death/MI (HR = 2.40; 95% CI 1.31-4.42; P = 0.005); death (HR = 2.88; 95% CI 1.35-6.13; P = 0.006) driven by an increase in cardiac death (HR = 3.33; 95% CI 1.42-7.83; P = 0.006) when compared with those without CKD. However, stent related events (TV-MI, TVR, TLR and stent thrombosis) were not different between CKD and non CKD groups. A significant interaction between CKD status and stent type (EES vs. PES) was noted for the outcomes of TVF (P interaction = 0.046), MACE (P interaction = 0.02), cardiac death or MI (P interaction = 0.05), non-target vessel related MI (P interaction = 0.04), non-Q-wave MI (P interaction = 0.03) and deaths/MI/TVR (P interaction = 0.04) such that EES was superior to PES in the non-CKD cohort but not in the CKD cohort.
CONCLUSIONS
In subjects with diabetes, CKD is an independent predictor of adverse cardiovascular outcomes including increased risk of death driven largely by non-stent related events.

1136,31579987,"Disease aetiology-based design of multifunctional microemulsion eye drops for moderate or severe dry eye: a randomized, quadruple-masked and active-controlled clinical trial.","PURPOSE
To assess the safety and efficacy of multi-ingredient sacha inchi microemulsion (SIME) eye drops designed to target (1) tear film instability, (2) tear hyperosmolarity, and (3) ocular surface damage and inflammation in moderate or severe dry eye.
METHODS
This randomized, quadruple-masked, active-controlled parallel study in 64 adult patients comprised three parts. Part 1 (n = 3): one eye was treated with SIME for one day. Part 2 (n = 9): randomized eyes were treated with SIME and 0.2% hyaluronic acid (HA) control eye drops 3 times a day for 10 days. Part 3 (n = 26 + 26): randomized treatment was applied on both eyes 3 times a day for 30 days. OSDI change was tested for superiority of SIME over HA. Ocular assessments were performed at baseline and after the last dose.
RESULTS
Both treatments were well tolerated without adverse device effects. Tear film break-up time (p = 0.0025) and ocular protection index (p = 0.0026; change vs. HA, p = 0.047) increased significantly with SIME after 30 days. Tear osmolarity decreased more in SIME than in the HA group and significantly with both eye drops in hyperosmolar subgroups. Corneal (p = 0.014) and nasal conjunctival staining (p = 0.043) were reduced with SIME in per-protocol patients (n = 24). Conjunctival (p = 0.001) and lid redness (p = 0.012) decreased with SIME in all patients (n = 26). Symptoms decreased by about 25 OSDI units with both treatments (p < 0.0001) and with nonsignificant difference between treatments.
CONCLUSIONS
Sacha inchi microemulsion (SIME) proved safe and efficacious in improving each aetiologic factor for dry eye as revealed through objective tests. Hyperosmolar stress dominating blink cycles must be disrupted by biophysical protection of the ocular surface to facilitate resolution of cellular damage and inflammation, and relief of ocular symptoms.",2020,"Symptoms decreased by about 25 OSDI units with both treatments (p < 0.0001) and with nonsignificant difference between treatments.

1137,32407272,Influence of Rifampicin Pre-treatment on the In Vivo Pharmacokinetics of Metoclopramide in Pakistani Healthy Volunteers Following Concurrent Oral Administration.,"BACKGROUND
Metoclopramide is metabolized by various cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes such as CYP3A4, CYP1A2, CYP2D6, CYP2C9, and CYP2C19. Rifampicin is a nonselective inducer of P-glycoprotein (P-gp) and CYP enzymes such as CYP3A4 and others.
OBJECTIVE
This study was aimed at the evaluation of rifampicin's enzyme induction effect on the pharmacokinetic parameters of orally administered metoclopramide.
METHOD
This randomized, single-blind, two-phase cross-over pharmacokinetic study separated by a 4-week wash-out period was conducted at a single center in Pakistan. It involved twelve Pakistani healthy male volunteers (non-smokers) divided into two groups. In the reference phase, each volunteer received a single oral dose of 20 mg metoclopramide (Maxolon 10 mg, GlaxoSmithKline, Pakistan), while in the rifampicin-treated phase, each volunteer received 600 mg rifampicin once daily for 6 days through oral route. On day 6, metoclopramide (20 mg) was administered 2 hours after the last pretreatment dose of rifampicin. The serial blood samples were collected on predetermined time points (0, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, and 18 h) and analyzed using a validated HPLC method for the determination of pharmacokinetic parameters, i.e. Cmax, Tmax, and AUC0-∞ of metoclopramide. The whole study was monitored by an unblinded clinician for the purpose of volunteer's health safety.
RESULTS
All the volunteers participated in the study until the end. Twelve healthy Pakistani males having to mean age 26.0 (range 20.6-34.1) years and body mass index 25.1 (range 16.2-31.5) kg/m2 were included in this study after taking written informed consent. Rifampicin significantly (P < 0.05) decreased the mean Cmax, AUC0-∞ and T1/2 of metoclopramide by 35%, 68%, and 44%, respectively. The laboratory tests did not reveal any significant change in the biochemical, physical, hematological, or urinalytical values before and after metoclopramide treatment. None of the volunteers complained of any discomfort during the study.
CONCLUSION
Rifampicin noticeably decreased the concentration of plasma metoclopramide. These results give in vivo confirmation of the CYP3A4 involvement in the metoclopramide metabolism, in addition to CYP2D6. Therefore, metoclopramide pharmacokinetics may be clinically affected by rifampicin and other potent enzyme inducers.",2020,"The laboratory tests did not reveal any significant change in the biochemical, physical, hematological, or urinalytical values before and after metoclopramide treatment.","['Pakistani Healthy Volunteers Following Concurrent Oral Administration', 'twelve Pakistani healthy male volunteers (non-smokers', 'Twelve healthy Pakistani males having to mean age 26.0 (range 20.6-34.1) years and body mass index 25.1 (range']","['Rifampicin', 'Rifampicin Pre-treatment', 'metoclopramide', 'rifampicin', 'Metoclopramide', 'metoclopramide (Maxolon 10 mg, GlaxoSmithKline, Pakistan']","['biochemical, physical, hematological, or urinalytical values', 'concentration of plasma metoclopramide', 'pharmacokinetic parameters, i.e. Cmax, Tmax, and AUC0-∞ of metoclopramide', 'serial blood samples', 'mean Cmax, AUC0-∞']","[{'cui': 'C0240620', 'cui_str': 'Pakistani'}, {'cui': 'C1708335', 'cui_str': 'Healthy Participants'}, {'cui': 'C0231290', 'cui_str': 'Status post'}, {'cui': 'C0205420', 'cui_str': 'Concurrent'}, {'cui': 'C0001563', 'cui_str': 'Medication administration: oral'}, {'cui': 'C0086582', 'cui_str': 'Male'}, {'cui': 'C0042960', 'cui_str': 'Voluntary worker'}, {'cui': 'C0337672', 'cui_str': 'Non-smoker'}, {'cui': 'C0062074', 'cui_str': 'HAC protocol'}, {'cui': 'C0444504', 'cui_str': 'Mean'}, {'cui': 'C0001779', 'cui_str': 'Age'}, {'cui': 'C3542016', 'cui_str': 'Concept model range'}, {'cui': 'C0439234', 'cui_str': 'year'}, {'cui': 'C0005893', 'cui_str': 'Body mass index'}]","[{'cui': 'C0035608', 'cui_str': 'Rifampin'}, {'cui': 'C0032952', 'cui_str': 'Prednisone'}, {'cui': 'C0039798', 'cui_str': 'therapy'}, {'cui': 'C0025853', 'cui_str': 'Metoclopramide'}, {'cui': 'C0699913', 'cui_str': 'Maxolon'}, {'cui': 'C0030211', 'cui_str': 'Pakistan'}]","[{'cui': 'C0205474', 'cui_str': 'Biochemical'}, {'cui': 'C0031809', 'cui_str': 'Physical examination'}, {'cui': 'C1273875', 'cui_str': 'Values (community)'}, {'cui': 'C0004268', 'cui_str': 'Attention'}, {'cui': 'C0032105', 'cui_str': 'blood plasma'}, {'cui': 'C0025853', 'cui_str': 'Metoclopramide'}, {'cui': 'C0031327', 'cui_str': 'Drug Kinetics'}, {'cui': 'C0449381', 'cui_str': 'Observation parameter'}, {'cui': 'C0031082', 'cui_str': 'Periodicals'}, {'cui': 'C0178913', 'cui_str': 'Blood specimen'}, {'cui': 'C0444504', 'cui_str': 'Mean'}]",12.0,0.0264346,"The laboratory tests did not reveal any significant change in the biochemical, physical, hematological, or urinalytical values before and after metoclopramide treatment.","[{'ForeName': 'Iram', 'Initials': 'I', 'LastName': 'Kaukab', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Pharmaceutics, Faculty of Pharmacy, Bahauddin Zakariya University, Multan.

GSM is a chronic condition with a significant impact on sexual health and quality of life. The mainstay of treatment has been with symptomatic relief using topical emollients or lubricants. Second-line treatment is with topical vaginal estrogens to restore the physiology of the vaginal epithelium. For some, the latter is not suitable or acceptable. Newer treatments with ospemifene and vaginal lasers have now been introduced. The two main types of laser currently used for the treatment of GSM are the fractional microablative CO 2 laser and the non-ablative photothermal erbium:YAG laser. We present a study protocol for a multicenter, prospective, non-inferiority, single-blinded, randomized controlled trial comparing the fractional microablative CO 2 laser versus the photothermal non-ablative erbium:YAG laser for the management of GSM. We will recruit 88 postmenopausal women across two sites who will be randomized to one of the two laser groups. Participants will all have GSM symptoms and a Vaginal Health Index Score < 15. All participants will receive an active treatment. Each participant will receive three applications of vaginal laser 1 month apart and will be followed up at 1 month, 6 months, and 12 months. Our primary outcomes will look at all changes of GSM symptoms (dryness, dyspareunia, itching, burning, dysuria, frequency, urgency), urinary incontinence (if present), and overall sexual satisfaction. Both subjective and objective means will be used to assess participants. The findings of this trial have the potential to allow clinicians and women suffering from GSM to make an informed decision when opting for a specific laser type.

1139,31034591,Effects of a Home-based Exercise Program on Anxiety and Mood Disturbances in Older Adults with Cancer Receiving Chemotherapy.,"BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVE
Exercise interventions improve anxiety and mood disturbances in patients with cancer. However, studies are limited in older adults with cancer. We assessed the effects of exercise on anxiety, mood, and social and emotional well-being in older patients with cancer during their first 6 weeks of chemotherapy.
DESIGN
Exploratory secondary analysis of a randomized controlled trial (RCT).
SETTING
Community oncology practices.
PARTICIPANTS
Older patients (aged 60 years or older) undergoing chemotherapy (N = 252).
INTERVENTION
Patients were randomized to Exercise for Cancer Patients (EXCAP) or usual care (control) for the first 6 weeks of chemotherapy. EXCAP is a home-based, low- to moderate-intensity progressive walking and resistance training program.
MEASUREMENTS
Analysis of covariance, with study arm as the factor, baseline value as the covariate, and study arm × baseline interaction, was used to evaluate arm effects on postintervention anxiety (State Trait Anxiety Inventory [STAI]), mood (Profile of Mood States [POMS]), and social and emotional well-being (Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-General subscales) after 6 weeks.
RESULTS
Median age was 67 years; 77% had breast cancer. Statistically significant group differences were observed in the STAI score (P = .001), POMS score (P = .022), social well-being (P = .002), and emotional well-being (P = .048). For each outcome, EXCAP patients with worse baseline scores had larger improvements at 6 weeks; these improvements were clinically significant for STAI score and social well-being.
CONCLUSIONS
Among older cancer patients receiving chemotherapy, a 6-week structured exercise program improved anxiety and mood, especially among those participants with worse baseline symptoms.

1140,32410697,Comparison of the clinical and cost effectiveness of two management strategies (rehabilitation versus surgical reconstruction) for non-acute anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury: study protocol for the ACL SNNAP randomised controlled trial.,"BACKGROUND
Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) rupture is a common knee injury that can lead to poor quality of life, decreased activity and increased risk of secondary osteoarthritis of the knee. Management of patients with a non-acute ACL injury can include a non-surgical (rehabilitation) or surgical (reconstruction) approach. However, insufficient evidence to guide treatment selection has led to high variation in treatment choice for patients with non-acute presentation of ACL injury. The objective of the ACL SNNAP trial is to determine in patients with non-acute anterior cruciate ligament deficiency (ACLD) whether a strategy of non-surgical management (rehabilitation) (with option for later ACL reconstruction only if required) is more clinically effective and cost effective than a strategy of surgical management (reconstruction) without prior rehabilitation with all patients followed up at 18 months.
METHODS
The study is a pragmatic, multi-centre, superiority, randomised controlled trial with two-arm parallel groups and 1:1 allocation. Patients with a symptomatic non-acute ACL deficient knee will be randomised to either non-surgical management (rehabilitation) or surgical management (reconstruction). We aim to recruit 320 patients from approximately 30 secondary care orthopaedic units from across the United Kingdom. Randomisation will occur using a web-based randomisation system. Blinding of patients and clinicians to treatment allocation will not be possible because of the nature of the interventions. Participants will be followed up via self-reported questionnaires at 6, 12 and 18 months. The primary outcome is the Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS) at 18 months post randomisation. Secondary outcomes will include a return to sport/activity, intervention-related complications, patient satisfaction, expectations of activity, generic health quality of life, knee specific quality of life and resource usage.
DISCUSSION
At present, no evidence-based treatment of non-acute ACL deficiency exists, particularly in the NHS. Moreover, little consensus exists on the management approach for these patients. The proposed trial will address this gap in knowledge regarding the clinical and cost effectiveness of ACL treatment and inform future standards of care for this condition.

1141,32407327,How much is enough? Exploring the dose-response relationship between cash transfers and surgical utilization in a resource-poor setting.,"OBJECTIVE
Cash transfers are a common intervention to incentivize salutary behavior in resource-constrained settings. Many cash transfer studies do not, however, account for the effect of the size of the cash transfer in design or analysis. A randomized, controlled trial of a cash-transfer intervention is planned to incentivize appropriate surgical utilization in Guinea. The aim of the current study is to determine the size of that cash transfer so as to maximize compliance while minimizing cost.
METHODS
Data were collected from nine coastal Guinean hospitals on their surgical capabilities and the cost of receiving surgery. These data were combined with publicly available data about the general Guinean population to create an agent-based model predicting surgical utilization. The model was validated to the available literature on surgical utilization. Cash transfer sizes from 0 to 1,000,000 Guinean francs were evaluated, with surgical compliance as the primary outcome.
RESULTS
Compliance with scheduled surgery increases as the size of a cash transfer increases. This increase is asymptotic, with a leveling in utilization occurring when the cash transfer pays for all the costs associated with surgical care. Below that cash transfer size, no other optima are found. Once a cash transfer completely covers the costs of surgery, other barriers to care such as distance and hospital quality dominate.
CONCLUSION
Cash transfers to incentivize health-promoting behavior appear to be dose-dependent. Maximal impact is likely only to occur when full patient costs are eliminated. These findings should be incorporated in the design of future cash transfer studies.",2020,"This increase is asymptotic, with a leveling in utilization occurring when the cash transfer pays for all the costs associated with surgical care.","['Data were collected from nine coastal Guinean hospitals on their surgical capabilities and the cost of receiving surgery', 'Guinea']",['cash-transfer intervention'],[],"[{'cui': 'C0019994', 'cui_str': 'Hospitals'}, {'cui': 'C0002838', 'cui_str': 'Andorra'}, {'cui': 'C0038895', 'cui_str': 'operative procedures'}, {'cui': 'C0018381', 'cui_str': 'Guinea Republic'}]","[{'cui': 'C0040671', 'cui_str': 'Transfer (Psychology)'}, {'cui': 'C0184661', 'cui_str': 'Procedure'}]",[],,0.0274983,"This increase is asymptotic, with a leveling in utilization occurring when the cash transfer pays for all the costs associated with surgical care.","[{'ForeName': 'Christopher', 'Initials': 'C', 'LastName': 'Strader', 'Affiliation': 'Program in Global Surgery and Social Change, Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA, United States of America.'}, {'ForeName': 'Joanna', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Ashby', 'Affiliation': 'Program in Global Surgery and Social Change, Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA, United States of America.'}, {'ForeName': 'Dominique', 'Initials': 'D', 'LastName': 'Vervoort', 'Affiliation': 'Program in Global Surgery and Social Change, Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA, United States of America.'}, {'ForeName': 'Aref', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Ebrahimi', 'Affiliation': 'Joslin Diabetes Center, Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA, United States of America.'}, {'ForeName': 'Shoghi', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Agbortoko', 'Affiliation': 'Harvard College, Cambridge, MA, United States of America.'}, {'ForeName': 'Melissa', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Lee', 'Affiliation': 'Harvard College, Cambridge, MA, United States of America.'}, {'ForeName': 'Naomi', 'Initials': 'N', 'LastName': 'Reiner', 'Affiliation': 'Harvard Graduate School of Education, Cambridge, MA, United States of America.'}, {'ForeName': 'Molly', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Zeme', 'Affiliation': 'Harvard College, Cambridge, MA, United States of America.'}, {'ForeName': 'Mark G', 'Initials': 'MG', 'LastName': 'Shrime', 'Affiliation': 'Program in Global Surgery and Social Change, Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA, United States of America.'}]",PloS one,['10.1371/journal.pone.0232761']
1142,32410703,Urinary angiotensinogen as a surrogate marker predicting the antiproteinuric effects of angiotensin receptor blockers in patients with overt proteinuria: a multicenter prospective study.,"BACKGROUND
Although urinary angiotensinogen (AGT) and renin reflect intrarenal renin-angiotensin system activity and are enhanced in proteinuric chronic kidney disease, the clinical value of urinary AGT and renin levels during antiproteinuric treatment has yet to be determined. We investigated the clinical usefulness of initial urinary AGT or renin to determine the antiproteinuric effects of angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs).
METHODS
This multicenter, prospective, single-arm study included 205 patients with overt proteinuria (urinary protein/creatinine ratio [uPCR] ≥ 1 mg/mg) enrolled between April 2009 and December 2011. All patients were treated with valsartan. The urinary AGT/creatinine ratio (uAGT/Cr) was measured at the baseline and 24 weeks, and the renin/creatinine ratio (uR/Cr) was measured at the baseline. Fifty-six patients were followed-up for 5 years.
RESULTS
The mean age was 47.6 years and 51.2% were male. The mean uPCR was 2.32 mg/mg and the mean eGFR was 63.2 mL/min/1.73m 2 . Natural logarithms (ln) (uAGT/Cr), ln(uR/Cr), and diabetes mellitus were associated with proteinuria decrement (decrease in uPCR ≥1 mg/mg). Ln(uAGT/Cr) was an independent predictor for proteinuria decrement (OR 1.372, 95% CI, 1.068-1.762, P = 0.013). Among the 56 patients followed-up for 5 years, Δln(uAGT/Cr) at 24 weeks was an independent predictor for uPCR < 1 mg/mg at 5 years (OR 0.379, 95% CI, 0.20-0.715, P = 0.003).

1143,31003961,"Optimal dilation time for combined small endoscopic sphincterotomy and balloon dilation for common bile duct stones: a multicentre, single-blinded, randomised controlled trial.","BACKGROUND
Endoscopic sphincterotomy is the established treatment for common bile duct stones. Balloon dilation offers an alternative. Prolonged dilation (300 s) with a 10 mm diameter balloon decreases the occurrence of pancreatitis after endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP). We aimed to determine the optimal duration of dilation for combined endoscopic sphincterotomy and balloon dilation for the removal of common bile duct stones.
METHODS
We did a multicentre, single-blinded, randomised controlled trial at 15 tertiary surgical centres in China. Eligible patients (≥18 years) with native papilla and common bile duct stones (≤1·5 cm in size and <2 cm in diameter) undergoing ERCP were randomly assigned (1:1:1:1:1) to receive balloon dilation for 0, 30, 60, 180, or 300 s after deep bile duct cannulation. Randomisation was done by an independent statistician using a computer-generated randomisation list with a block size of ten, stratified by centre. Patients and outcome assessors, but not endoscopists and investigators, were masked to treatment allocation. Balloon dilation was done with controlled radial expansion balloons according to common bile duct stone size. Stones were removed using stone retrieval balloons or baskets. The primary endpoint was overall frequency of post-ERCP pancreatitis. The primary efficacy analysis and safety analyses were done in the modified intention-to-treat population, which included all randomly assigned patients with successful cannulation, but excluded those who withdrew consent after randomisation. This study was registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, number NCT02510495, and is complete.
FINDINGS
Between July 29, 2015, and Dec 1, 2017, 3721 consecutive patients with common bile duct stones were recruited, 1718 of whom were excluded. The remaining 2003 patients underwent a small (3-5 mm) endoscopic sphincterotomy. 83 patients withdrew consent after the ERCP procedure, thus 1920 patients were included in the modified intention-to-treat analysis (0 s [n=371], 30 s [n=384], 60 s [n=388], 180 s [n=390], and 300 s [n=387]). Overall, post-ERCP pancreatitis occurred in 199 (10%) of 1920 patients (44 [12%] patients in the 0 s group, 28 [7%] in the 30 s group, 32 [8%] in the 60 s group, 36 [9%] in the 180 s group, and 59 [15%] in the 300 s group). Prolonged dilation (300 s) significantly increased the occurrence of post-ERCP pancreatitis compared with shorter balloon dilation (p=0·002). The frequency of post-ERCP pancreatitis was significantly lower in the 30, 60, and 180 s groups than in the 300 s group (relative risk [RR] 0·48, 95% CI 0·31-0·73; p=0·0005 vs the 30 s group; 0·54, 0·36-0·81; p=0·003 vs the 60 s group; 0·61, 0·41-0·89; p=0·01 vs the 180 s group). The frequency of post-ERCP pancreatitis was significantly higher in the 0 s group than the 30 s group (RR 1·62, 1·04-2·56; p=0·03). No difference in stone extraction (all ≥90%) was observed between groups. Following ERCP, 90 (5%) of 1920 patients had acute cholangitis, 14 (<1%) had acute cholecystitis, and five (<1%) had gastrointestinal bleeding, with no significant differences between groups. One (<1%) patient had Stapfer II perforation, which resolved spontaneously with conservative treatment.
INTERPRETATION
A balloon dilation time of 30 s for combined endoscopic sphincterotomy and balloon dilation reduced the frequency of post-ERCP pancreatitis and was determined to be the optimum dilation time for the removal of common bile duct stones.

To evaluate the effects of a low-load resistance training program associated with partial blood-flow restriction in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA).
METHODS
Forty-eight women with RA were randomized into 1 of 3 groups: high-load resistance training (HL-RT; 70% 1 repetition maximum [1RM]), low-load resistance training (30% 1RM) with partial blood-flow restriction training (BFRT), and a control group. Patients completed a 12-week supervised training program and were assessed for lower-extremity 1RM, quadriceps cross-sectional area (CSA), physical function (timed-stands test [TST], timed-up-and-go test [TUG], and Health Assessment Questionnaire [HAQ]), and quality of life (Short Form 36 health survey [SF-36]) at baseline and after the intervention.
RESULTS
BFRT and HL-RT were similarly effective in increasing maximum dynamic strength in both leg press (22.8% and 24.2%, respectively; P < 0.0001 for all) and knee extension (19.7% and 23.8%, respectively; P < 0.0001 for all). Quadriceps CSA was also significantly increased in both BFRT and HL-RT (9.5% and 10.8%, respectively; P < 0.0001 for all). Comparable improvements in TST (11.2% and 14.7%; P < 0.0001 for all) and TUG (-6.8% [P < 0.0053] and -8.7% [P < 0.0001]) were also observed in BFRT and HL-RT, respectively. Improvements in both groups were significantly greater than those of the control group (P < 0.05 for all). SF-36 role physical and bodily pain and HAQ scores were improved only in BFRT (45.7%, 22.5%, and -55.9%, respectively; P < 0.05 for all). HL-RT resulted in 1 case of withdrawal and several cases of exercise-induced pain, which did not occur in BFRT.

1145,32410715,Effects of multidomain versus single-domain training on executive control and memory in older adults: study protocol for a randomized controlled trial.,"BACKGROUND
Previous research suggests that both cognitive training and physical exercise help to maintain brain health and cognitive functions that decline with age. Some studies indicate that combined interventions may produce larger effects than each intervention alone. The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of combined cognitive and physical training compared to cognitive training and physical training alone on executive control and memory functions in healthy older adults.
OBJECTIVES
The main objectives of this four-arm randomized controlled trial (RCT) are: to investigate the synergetic effects of a simultaneous, group-based multidomain training program that combines cognitive video-game training with physical exercise, in comparison to those produced by cognitive training combined with physical control activity, physical training combined with cognitive control activity, or a combination of both control activities; to investigate whether event-related potential latencies of the P2 component are shorter and N2 and P3b components assessed in a memory-based task switching task are enhanced after training; and to find out whether possible enhancements persist after a 3-month period without training.
METHODS
In this randomized, single-blind, controlled trial, 144 participants will be randomly assigned to one of the four combinations of cognitive training and physical exercise. The cognitive component will be either video-game training (cognitive intervention, CI) or video games not specifically designed to train cognition (cognitive control, CC). The physical exercise component will either emphasize endurance, strength, and music-movement coordination (exercise intervention, EI) or stretching, toning, and relaxation (exercise control, EC).
DISCUSSION
This RCT will investigate the short and long-term effects of multidomain training, compared to cognitive training and physical training alone, on executive control and memory functions in healthy older adults, in comparison with the performance of an active control group.

1146,31436494,Evaluating the Acceptability and Feasibility of Providing Egg or Cereal Breakfast during a Family-Based Treatment for Children with Overweight/Obesity: The Families and Breakfast Pilot Trial.,"Background: Family-based behavioral treatment (FBT) is the most successful weight-loss treatment for children with overweight and obesity, however, long-term success is only achieved by a third of children over time. The use of foods that induce satiety, such as eggs, could improve adherence to calorically restricted diets in children and improve outcomes. This study explored the consumption of eggs (FBT+egg) or cereal (FBT+cereal) for breakfast as part of an FBT program, when breakfast foods were provided to families. Methods: Fifty 8-12-year-old children with overweight and obesity and their parents were randomized to a 4-month FBT+egg or FBT+cereal treatment program. Families were provided the ingredients for their assigned breakfast at each treatment session, and instructed to consume the breakfast a minimum of 5 days per week. Families attended assessments at baseline, post-treatment, and 4-months post-treatment. Results: Results showed that both treatments were well liked, FBT attendance was similar, and there was high compliance with consumption of the specified breakfast. Children experienced moderate weight loss at post-treatment [-0.11 standardized BMI (BMIz)] through 4-month follow-up (-0.09 BMIz), with no statistically significant differences (mean difference -0.05 BMIz, 95% confidence interval -0.19 to 0.09) observed between egg and cereal conditions across any anthropometric or appetitive measures. Conclusions: The use of eggs for breakfast in children enrolled in FBT was well tolerated, and future studies should include larger samples and longer follow-up periods to assess the potential differential effects of prescribed breakfasts on children's weight and eating behaviors.",2019,"The use of foods that induce satiety, such as eggs, could improve adherence to calorically restricted diets in children and improve outcomes.","['children enrolled in', 'children with overweight and obesity', 'Fifty 8-12-year-old children with overweight and obesity and their parents', 'Children with Overweight/Obesity']","[': Family-based behavioral treatment (FBT', 'FBT', 'Providing Egg or Cereal Breakfast', 'FBT+egg or FBT+cereal treatment program']","['moderate weight loss', 'well liked, FBT attendance']","[{'cui': 'C0008059', 'cui_str': 'Child'}, {'cui': 'C0497406', 'cui_str': 'Overweight'}, {'cui': 'C0028754', 'cui_str': 'Obesity'}, {'cui': 'C0439234', 'cui_str': 'year (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0677546', 'cui_str': 'Old episode (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0085092', 'cui_str': 'Parenting'}]","[{'cui': 'C0015576', 'cui_str': 'Family'}, {'cui': 'C0178499', 'cui_str': 'Base'}, {'cui': 'C0087111', 'cui_str': 'Therapy'}, {'cui': 'C0029974', 'cui_str': 'Egg, Unfertilized'}, {'cui': 'C0007757', 'cui_str': 'Cereal Grain'}, {'cui': 'C4553621', 'cui_str': 'With breakfast'}, {'cui': 'C2728259', 'cui_str': 'Program'}]","[{'cui': 'C0205081', 'cui_str': 'Moderate (severity modifier) (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C1262477', 'cui_str': 'Weight Reduction'}]",,0.0596794,"The use of foods that induce satiety, such as eggs, could improve adherence to calorically restricted diets in children and improve outcomes.","[{'ForeName': 'Kerri N', 'Initials': 'KN', 'LastName': 'Boutelle', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Pediatrics, University of California, San Diego, La Jolla, CA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Michael A', 'Initials': 'MA', 'LastName': 'Manzano', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Pediatrics, University of California, San Diego, La Jolla, CA.'}, {'ForeName': 'David R', 'Initials': 'DR', 'LastName': 'Strong', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Family Medicine and Public Health, University of California, San Diego, La Jolla, CA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Kyung E', 'Initials': 'KE', 'LastName': 'Rhee', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Pediatrics, University of California, San Diego, La Jolla, CA.'}]",Childhood obesity (Print),['10.1089/chi.2018.0331']
1147,32410722,"Targeted outdoor residual spraying, autodissemination devices and their combination against Aedes mosquitoes: field implementation in a Malaysian urban setting.","Currently, dengue control relies largely on reactive vector control programmes. Proactive vector-control using a rational, well-balanced integrated vector management approach may prove more successful for dengue control. As part of the development of a cluster randomized controlled epidemiological trial, a study was conducted in Johor Bahru, Malaysia. The study included one control site (three buildings) and three intervention sites which were treated as follows: targeted outdoor residual spraying only (TORS site, two buildings); deployment of autodissemination devices only (ADD site, four buildings); and the previous two treatments combined (TORS + ADD site, three buildings). The primary entomological measurement was per cent of positive ovitraps-ovitrap index (OI). The effect of each intervention on OI was analyzed by a modified ordinary least squares regression model. Relative to the control site, the TORS and ADD sites showed a reduction in the Aedes OI (-6.5%, P = 0.04 and -8.3%, P = 0.10, respectively). Analysis by species showed that, relative to control, the Ae. aegypti OI was lower in ADD (-8.9%, P = 0.03) and in TORS (-10.4%, P = 0.02). No such effect was evident in the TORS + ADD site. The present study provides insights into the methods to be used for the main trial. The combination of multiple insecticides with different modes of action in one package is innovative, although we could not demonstrate the additive effect of TORS + ADD. Further work is required to strengthen our understanding of how these interventions impact dengue vector populations and dengue transmission.",2020,"aegypti OI was lower in ADD (-8.9%, P = 0.03) and in TORS (-10.4%, P = 0.02).",['Malaysian urban setting'],"['outdoor residual spraying only (TORS site, two buildings);

1148,31562889,Clinical and OCT outcomes of a universal adhesive in a randomized clinical trial after 12 months.,"OBJECTIVES
To assess the performance of a universal adhesive in different application modes in non-carious cervical lesions clinically and by optical coherence tomography (OCT).
METHODS
55 adult patients with three non-carious cervical lesions (NCCL) each participated in the study. Lesions were restored with Scotchbond™ Universal (SBU, 3 M) applied in the self-etch (SBU-SE) and the selective-enamel-etch mode (SBU-SEE) in combination with Filtek™ Supreme XTE (3 M). OptiBond™ FL (OFL, Kerr) was used as a control. Restorations were clinically assessed (FDI criteria) after 14 days, 6 and 12 months and in parallel imaged by OCT (interfacial adhesive defects), starting immediately after filling placement. Cumulative failure rates (CFR) and means of interfacial adhesive defect were statistically evaluated.
RESULTS
After 12 months, CFRs were lower in the SBU groups (0.0% each) than in the OFL group (20.0%, p = 0.001). Clinically, small marginal fractures occurred three times more often in the SBU-SE than in the SBU-SEE group (p = 0.001). Immediately after filling placement and at each reassessment OCT revealed more interfacial defects at enamel interfaces for SBU/SE compared to SBU/SEE and OFL (p i ≤ 0.044). At dentin/cement more defects were seen with OFL compared to SBU/SE and SBU/SEE (p i ≤ 0.001). Before restoration loss, more interfacial defects appeared compared to remaining restorations (p immediately/6M = 0.132/0.002).
CONCLUSIONS
Clinical evaluation and OCT imaging revealed higher interfacial integrity for SBU in both application modes compared to OFL. OCT detected interfacial bond failures prior to clinical deterioration or restoration loss.
CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE
Scotchbond Universal showed an equivalent or improved bonding performance compared to the reference adhesive. Selective enamel etching is recommended. The parameter interfacial adhesive defect seems to be a valuable predictor for evaluation of adhesive restoration systems.",2019,Immediately after filling placement and at each reassessment OCT revealed more interfacial defects at enamel interfaces for SBU/SE compared to SBU/SEE and OFL (p i ≤ 0.044).,['55 adult patients with three non-carious cervical lesions (NCCL) each participated in the study'],['OFL'],"['bonding performance', 'interfacial defects', 'CFRs', 'small marginal fractures', 'OptiBond TM FL (OFL, Kerr', 'Cumulative failure rates (CFR) and means of interfacial adhesive defect']","[{'cui': 'C0001675', 'cui_str': 'Adult'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C4274086', 'cui_str': 'Non carious lesion at cervical margin of tooth (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C0557651', 'cui_str': 'Study (environment)'}]",[],"[{'cui': 'C0028758', 'cui_str': 'Object Relationship'}, {'cui': 'C0243067', 'cui_str': 'defects'}, {'cui': 'C0547044', 'cui_str': 'Lesser (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0205284', 'cui_str': 'Marginal (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0016658', 'cui_str': 'Fractures, Bone'}, {'cui': 'C0296330', 'cui_str': 'Optibond'}, {'cui': 'C0231174', 'cui_str': 'Failure (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C0444504', 'cui_str': 'Mean (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0001516', 'cui_str': 'Adhesives'}]",55.0,0.0371188,Immediately after filling placement and at each reassessment OCT revealed more interfacial defects at enamel interfaces for SBU/SE compared to SBU/SEE and OFL (p i ≤ 0.044).,"[{'ForeName': 'Rainer', 'Initials': 'R', 'LastName': 'Haak', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Cariology, Endodontology and Periodontology, University of Leipzig, Liebigstraße 12, 04103 Leipzig, Germany.

1149,31718499,Impact of a Design-Based Bike Exergame on Young Adults' Physical Activity Metrics and Situational Interest.,"Purpose : Despite the benefits of commercial exergames, in the practical application, players might not be spending sufficient time in physical activity levels compatible with health outcomes. We adopted a design-based exergame approach to build a bike exergame called Greedy Rabbit. The purpose of this study was to identify the impact of Greedy Rabbit on players' physical activity metrics and situational interest. Method : Sixty undergraduate students were assigned to two groups: an experimental group playing Greedy Rabbit (N = 41) and a control group playing a placebo version of Greedy Rabbit (N = 19). The physical activity metrics measured were maximum oxygen consumption, heart rate and cadence. Results : The experimental group reported higher scores for all physical activity metrics and for two dimensions of situational interest (instant enjoyment and attention demand). Furthermore, the physical activity metrics increased more during the exergame for the experimental group, reaching the standard guidelines for vigorous physical activity. Conclusion : This study demonstrated that a design-based bike exergame might be a good option to enhance players' health-related physical activity outcomes and situational interest.",2020,The experimental group reported higher scores for all physical activity metrics and for two dimensions of situational interest (instant enjoyment and attention demand).,"['Sixty undergraduate students', 'Young Adults']","['Design-Based Bike Exergame', 'control group playing a placebo version of Greedy Rabbit', 'experimental group playing Greedy Rabbit']","['maximum oxygen consumption, heart rate and cadence', 'Physical Activity Metrics and Situational Interest', 'situational interest (instant enjoyment and attention demand', 'physical activity metrics']","[{'cui': 'C0038492', 'cui_str': 'Student (occupation)'}, {'cui': 'C0238598', 'cui_str': 'Young Adult'}]","[{'cui': 'C0178499', 'cui_str': 'Base'}, {'cui': 'C0005375', 'cui_str': 'Bicycle, device (physical object)'}, {'cui': 'C0009932', 'cui_str': 'Control Groups'}, {'cui': 'C0032214', 'cui_str': 'Play'}, {'cui': 'C1696465', 'cui_str': 'placebo'}, {'cui': 'C2607870', 'cui_str': 'Version (morphologic abnormality)'}, {'cui': 'C3887509', 'cui_str': 'Rabbits'}, {'cui': 'C0439745', 'cui_str': 'Grouped (qualifier value)'}]","[{'cui': 'C1305742', 'cui_str': 'Oxygen consumption'}, {'cui': 'C0018810', 'cui_str': 'Cardiac rate'}, {'cui': 'C0015259', 'cui_str': 'Physical Activity'}, {'cui': 'C0699680', 'cui_str': 'Metric'}, {'cui': 'C0004268', 'cui_str': 'Attention'}]",,0.0246847,The experimental group reported higher scores for all physical activity metrics and for two dimensions of situational interest (instant enjoyment and attention demand).,"[{'ForeName': 'Cédric', 'Initials': 'C', 'LastName': 'Roure', 'Affiliation': 'University of Teacher Education.'}, {'ForeName': 'Denis', 'Initials': 'D', 'LastName': 'Pasco', 'Affiliation': 'University of Bourgogne Franche-Comté.'}, {'ForeName': 'Nicolas', 'Initials': 'N', 'LastName': 'Benoît', 'Affiliation': 'Université Catholique de Louvain.'}, {'ForeName': 'Louise', 'Initials': 'L', 'LastName': 'Deldicque', 'Affiliation': 'Université Catholique de Louvain.'}]",Research quarterly for exercise and sport,['10.1080/02701367.2019.1665621']
1150,31665808,Laparoscopy for living donor left nephrectomy: Comparison of three-dimensional and two-dimensional vision.,"The main objective of this preliminary study was to evaluate the feasibility and safety of 3-D laparoscopic living donor left nephrectomy (LDLN). The secondary objective was to compare intraoperative and postoperative outcomes between 3-D and 2-D laparoscopic LDLN. All patients who underwent a laparoscopic LDLN from January 2015 to April 2018 in a university center were included. All surgeries were performed by three experienced surgeons. Seventy three patients were included the following: 16 underwent a 3-D laparoscopic LDLN (3-D group), and 57 underwent a 2-D laparoscopic LDLN (2-D group). Operative time and warm ischemia time (WIT) were significantly lower in the 3-D group (operative time: 80.9 ± 10.2 vs 114.1 ± 32.3 minutes in the 3-D and 2-D groups, P = .0002) (WIT: 1.7 ± 0.6 vs 2.3 ± 0.9 minutes in the 3-D and 2-D groups, P = .02).

The current study expands on this previous literature by using a genetically-informed, experimental, and long-term longitudinal design to examine trajectories of early-emerging conduct problems and early childhood discriminators of such patterns from the toddler period to adolescence. The sample represents a cohort of 731 toddlers and diverse families recruited based on socioeconomic, child, and family risk, varying in urbanicity and assessed on nine occasions between ages 2 and 14. In addition to examining child, family, and community level discriminators of patterns of emerging conduct problems, we were able to account for genetic susceptibility using polygenic scores and the study's experimental design to determine whether random assignment to the Family Check-Up (FCU) discriminated trajectory groups. In addition, in accord with differential susceptibility theory, we tested whether the effects of the FCU were stronger for those children with higher genetic susceptibility. Results augmented previous findings documenting the influence of child (inhibitory control [IC], gender) and family (harsh parenting, parental depression, and educational attainment) risk. In addition, children in the FCU were overrepresented in the persistent low versus persistent high CP group, but such direct effects were qualified by an interaction between the intervention and genetic susceptibility that was consistent with differential susceptibility.

1152,30965213,Prophylactic antibiotics reduce hospitalisations and cost in locally advanced head and neck cancer patients treated with chemoradiotherapy: A randomised phase 2 study.,"BACKGROUND
Platinum-based chemoradiotherapy for locally advanced head and neck cancer (LAHNC) induces a high rate of acute toxicity, including dysphagia and aspiration pneumonia. We hypothesised that prophylactic antibiotics can prevent pneumonia and hospitalisations and can be cost-effective.
PATIENT AND METHODS
In this multicentre randomised trial, patients with LAHNC treated with chemoradiotherapy received prophylactic amoxicillin/clavulanic acid from day 29 after the start of treatment until 14 days after completion of chemoradiotherapy or standard care without prophylaxis. The primary objective was to observe a reduction in pneumonias. Secondary objectives were to evaluate the hospitalisation rate, adverse events, costs and health-related quality of life.
RESULTS
One hundred six patients were included; of which, 95 were randomised: 48 patients were allocated to the standard group and 47 patients to the prophylaxis group. A pneumonia during chemoradiotherapy and follow-up until 3.5 months was observed in 22 (45.8%) of 48 patients in the standard group and in 22 (46.8%) of 47 patients in the prophylaxis group (p = 0.54). Hospitalisation rate was significantly higher in the standard group versus the prophylaxis group, 19 of 48 pts (39.6%) versus 9 of 47 pts (19.1%), respectively (p = 0.03). Significantly more episodes with fever of any grade were observed in the standard group (29.2% vs 10.2%, p = 0.028). A significant difference in costs was found, with an average reduction of €1425 per patient in favour of the prophylaxis group.
CONCLUSION
Although prophylactic antibiotics during chemoradiotherapy for patients with LAHNC did not reduce the incidence of pneumonias, it did reduce hospitalisation rates and episodes with fever significantly and consequently tended to be cost-effective.",2019,"A significant difference in costs was found, with an average reduction of €1425 per patient in favour of the prophylaxis group.

1153,31714986,Effect of Bempedoic Acid vs Placebo Added to Maximally Tolerated Statins on Low-Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol in Patients at High Risk for Cardiovascular Disease: The CLEAR Wisdom Randomized Clinical Trial.,"Importance
Additional treatment options are needed for patients who do not achieve sufficient reduction in low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) level with available lipid-lowering therapies.
Objective
To assess the efficacy of bempedoic acid vs placebo in patients at high cardiovascular risk receiving maximally tolerated lipid-lowering therapy.
Design, Setting, and Participants
Phase 3, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial conducted at 91 clinical sites in North America and Europe from November 2016 to September 2018, with a final date of follow-up of September 22, 2018. A total of 779 patients with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia, or both met randomization criteria, which included LDL-C level 70 mg/dL (1.8 mmol/L) or greater while receiving maximally tolerated lipid-lowering therapy.
Interventions
Patients were randomized 2:1 to treatment with bempedoic acid (180 mg) (n = 522) or placebo (n = 257) once daily for 52 weeks.
Main Outcomes and Measures
The primary end point was percent change from baseline in LDL-C level at week 12. Secondary measures included changes in levels of lipids, lipoproteins, and biomarkers.
Results
Among 779 randomized patients (mean age, 64.3 years; 283 women [36.3%]), 740 (95.0%) completed the trial. At baseline, mean LDL-C level was 120.4 (SD, 37.9) mg/dL. Bempedoic acid lowered LDL-C levels significantly more than placebo at week 12 (-15.1% vs 2.4%, respectively; difference, -17.4% [95% CI, -21.0% to -13.9%]; P < .001). Significant reductions with bempedoic acid vs placebo were observed at week 12 for non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (-10.8% vs 2.3%; difference, -13.0% [95% CI, -16.3% to -9.8%]; P < .001), total cholesterol (-9.9% vs 1.3%; difference, -11.2% [95% CI, -13.6% to -8.8%]; P < .001), apolipoprotein B (-9.3% vs 3.7%; difference, -13.0% [95% CI, -16.1% to -9.9%]; P < .001), and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (median, -18.7% vs -9.4%; difference, -8.7% [asymptotic confidence limits, -17.2% to -0.4%]; P = .04). Common adverse events included nasopharyngitis (5.2% vs 5.1% with bempedoic acid and placebo, respectively), urinary tract infection (5.0% vs 1.9%), and hyperuricemia (4.2% vs 1.9%).
Conclusions and Relevance
Among patients at high risk for cardiovascular disease receiving maximally tolerated statins, the addition of bempedoic acid compared with placebo resulted in a significant lowering of LDL-C level over 12 weeks. Further research is needed to assess the durability and clinical effect as well as long-term safety.

Open-label prospective study in which participants received mifepristone 200 mg orally to swallow at home or at the clinic followed 24 h later by misoprostol 400 mcg buccally. They presented to the outpatient clinic 24-48 h after mifepristone for misoprostol 400 mcg buccally every three hours (no maximum dose). The primary outcome was successful abortion without transfer to overnight inpatient care. Secondary outcomes included time to abortion from initial misoprostol dose, safety, additional interventions and side effects.
RESULTS
We enrolled 230 women from December 2017 to November 2018. Approximately nine of ten (n = 206, 89.6%) achieved a successful abortion without transfer to overnight care. Twenty-four were transferred to overnight inpatient care; of these 18 were to manage a complication, five for incomplete abortion and two by choice. Among these 24, three women experienced an SAE. The median time to successful abortion from time of the first misoprostol dose was 7.2 h (range: 0.75-92.3), with an average of three misoprostol doses. Most participants expelled the fetus and the placenta at or around the same time; median time between fetal and placental expulsion was 15 minutes (range: 0-4.5 h). Fifteen participants (6.6%) received more than five misoprostol doses and were transferred to inpatient care. Administration of more than five doses of misoprostol was associated with nulliparity. Provision of antibiotics (27.9%, n = 64), manual removal of placenta (15.3%, n = 35), uterotonics (4.4%, n = 10) and surgical interventions (4.4%, n = 10) were also reported. About one in four participants experienced nausea, vomiting and chills; fever was infrequent (2.5%, n = 5).
CONCLUSIONS
For gestations 13-18 weeks, an outpatient day process for medication abortion is safe, effective and feasible.
IMPLICATIONS
Medication abortion in 13 - 18 weeks need not be limited to inpatient care; nine of ten cases can be managed as an outpatient day service.",2019,"Approximately nine of ten (n=206, 89.6%) achieved a successful abortion without transfer to overnight care.","['230 women from December 2017 to November 2018', 'Twenty-four were transferred to overnight inpatient care; of these 18 to manage a complication, five for incomplete abortion and two by choice', 'medication abortion at 13-18weeks gestation']","['mifepristone 200 mg orally to swallow', 'misoprostol', 'hospital outpatient day procedure', 'misoprostol 400 mcg buccally', 'mifepristone for misoprostol']","['time to abortion from initial misoprostol dose, safety, additional interventions and side effects', 'safe, effective and feasible', 'successful abortion without transfer to overnight care', 'median time to successful abortion', 'manual removal of placenta', 'successful abortion without transfer to overnight inpatient care', 'nausea, vomiting and chills; fever', 'safety, acceptability and feasibility']","[{'cui': 'C0043210', 'cui_str': 'Girls'}, {'cui': 'C3715070', 'cui_str': '24 (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0040671', 'cui_str': 'Transfer'}, {'cui': 'C0439583', 'cui_str': 'Overnight (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0019993', 'cui_str': 'Hospitalization'}, {'cui': 'C0009566', 'cui_str': 'Complication (disorder)'}, {'cui': 'C0000810', 'cui_str': 'Abortion, Incomplete'}, {'cui': 'C0392535', 'cui_str': 'Abortion, Induced'}, {'cui': 'C0032961', 'cui_str': 'Gestation'}]","[{'cui': 'C1592637', 'cui_str': 'Mifepristone 200 MG [Mifeprex]'}, {'cui': 'C0326374', 'cui_str': 'Swallows'}, {'cui': 'C0085174', 'cui_str': 'Misoprostol'}, {'cui': 'C1510665', 'cui_str': 'Hospital environment (environment)'}, {'cui': 'C0029921', 'cui_str': 'Out-patients'}, {'cui': 'C0439228', 'cui_str': 'day (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0184661', 'cui_str': 'Procedures'}, {'cui': 'C3816746', 'cui_str': 'Four hundred'}, {'cui': 'C0439211', 'cui_str': 'microgram'}, {'cui': 'C0026088', 'cui_str': 'Mifepristone'}]","[{'cui': 'C1632851', 'cui_str': 'Times'}, {'cui': 'C0392535', 'cui_str': 'Abortion, Induced'}, {'cui': 'C0205265', 'cui_str': 'Initial (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0085174', 'cui_str': 'Misoprostol'}, {'cui': 'C0869039', 'cui_str': 'Unit dose'}, {'cui': 'C0036043', 'cui_str': 'Safety'}, {'cui': 'C0001688', 'cui_str': 'side effects'}, {'cui': 'C1704419', 'cui_str': 'Effective (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C1272703', 'cui_str': 'Successful'}, {'cui': 'C0040671', 'cui_str': 'Transfer'}, {'cui': 'C0439583', 'cui_str': 'Overnight (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C2939193', 'cui_str': 'Median (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0195755', 'cui_str': 'Manual removal of retained placenta (procedure)'}, {'cui': 'C0019993', 'cui_str': 'Hospitalization'}, {'cui': 'C0027497', 'cui_str': 'Nausea'}, {'cui': 'C0042963', 'cui_str': 'Emesis'}, {'cui': 'C0085593', 'cui_str': 'Chills'}, {'cui': 'C0015967', 'cui_str': 'Hyperthermia'}, {'cui': 'C3645535', 'cui_str': 'Acceptability'}]",230.0,0.147657,"Approximately nine of ten (n=206, 89.6%) achieved a successful abortion without transfer to overnight care.","[{'ForeName': 'Jennifer', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Blum', 'Affiliation': 'Gynuity Health Projects, USA.

1155,31000477,"Safety and efficacy of VRC01 broadly neutralising antibodies in adults with acutely treated HIV (RV397): a phase 2, randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial.","BACKGROUND
HIV-1-specific broadly neutralising antibodies such as VRC01 could promote HIV remission by halting viral replication and clearing infected cells. We investigated whether VRC01 could promote sustained viral control off antiretroviral therapy (ART) in adults who initiated ART during acute HIV infection.
METHODS
We did a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial at the Thai Red Cross AIDS Research Centre in Bangkok, Thailand. Eligible participants were aged 20-50 years, had initiated ART during acute infection (ie, Fiebig stages I-III), had been taking ART for more than 24 months, had fewer than 50 HIV-1 RNA copies per mL on three consecutive measurements, had more than 400 CD4 cells per μL, had fewer than ten copies of integrated HIV-1 DNA per 10 6 peripheral blood mononuclear cells, and were in generally good health. Eligible participants were randomly assigned (3:1) based on computer-generated lists with a blocking factor of 4 to receive VRC01 (40 mg/kg) or placebo (saline) intravenously every 3 weeks for up to 24 weeks during analytic interruption of ART, followed by continued observation off all therapies. Randomisation was stratified by Fiebig stage (I vs II vs III) at HIV diagnosis. Participants were monitored closely and resumed ART if 1000 or more HIV-1 RNA copies were detected per mL of plasma. The primary outcomes were the frequency of serious adverse events and the proportion of participants with fewer than 50 HIV-1 RNA copies per mL 24 weeks after treatment interruption. Efficacy analyses included all participants who received at least one full dose of study product, and safety analyses included all participants exposed to any study product. The trial was registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, number NCT02664415. This trial is completed.
FINDINGS
Between Aug 8, 2016, and Jan 9, 2017, 19 men were randomly assigned, 14 to the VRC01 group and five to the placebo group. One participant in the VRC01 group received a partial infusion without undergoing treatment interruption. The other 18 participants all received at least one full study infusion and underwent ART interruption. No serious adverse events were reported in either group. Only one participant in the VRC01 group achieved the primary efficacy endpoint of viral suppression 24 weeks after ART interruption. The other 17 restarted ART because of a confirmed recording of 1000 or more HIV-1 RNA copies per mL before 24 weeks.
INTERPRETATION
VRC01 monotherapy in individuals who initiated ART during acute HIV infection was well tolerated but did not significantly increase the number of participants with viral suppression 24 weeks after ART interruption. Further development of VRC01 and other immunotherapies for HIV will probably occur as part of combination regimens that include several treatments directed against unique therapeutic targets.

1157,31718393,Do Violence Acceptance and Bystander Actions Explain the Effects of Green Dot on Reducing Violence Perpetration in High Schools?,"This study extends prior analyses from a 5-year multisite cluster-randomized controlled trial to examine how the previously reported effects of the Green Dot bystander-based prevention program worked to reduce violence perpetration. Bystander-based interventions are hypothesized to prevent violence by reducing violence acceptance and increasing trained participants' willingness and ability to actively engage others in violence prevention using safe and effective bystander actions to diffuse or avoid potentially violent situations. We tested this hypothesis by examining whether Green Dot worked to reduce violence through two mediators measured over time: reducing violence acceptance and increasing bystander actions. When accounting for changes in these mediators over time, the effect of this intervention on violence perpetration was hypothesized to be attenuated or explained. At baseline (spring 2010) and annually (2011-2014), all students in recruited high schools (13 intervention, 13 control) completed an anonymous survey (response rate = 83.9%). Student responses were aggregated as school-level counts for the analysis. Path analyses estimated direct and indirect effects at specific points in the implementation of the intervention. Longitudinal models were used to determine if changes in violence acceptance and bystander actions could explain or attenuate the effect of the intervention. Time-framed path model analyses indicated that the intervention worked as expected to increase bystander behaviors and reduce violence acceptance; both potential mediators were significantly associated with sexual violence perpetration. In addition, after adjusting intent-to-treat models for the hypothesized mediators, the intervention was no longer associated with violence perpetration. In conclusion, these findings indicate that this bystander intervention worked as hypothesized to reduce sexual violence perpetration by creating theory-based changes in students' violence acceptance and bystander actions.",2019,Time-framed path model analyses indicated that the intervention worked as expected to increase bystander behaviors and reduce violence acceptance; both potential mediators were significantly associated with sexual violence perpetration.,"['At baseline (spring 2010) and annually (2011-2014), all students in recruited high schools (13 intervention, 13 control) completed an anonymous survey (response rate = 83.9']","['Green Dot bystander-based prevention program', 'Green Dot']","['sexual violence perpetration', 'bystander behaviors and reduce violence acceptance', 'violence acceptance and increasing bystander actions']","[{'cui': 'C0332181', 'cui_str': 'Annual (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0038492', 'cui_str': 'Student (occupation)'}, {'cui': 'C0205250', 'cui_str': 'High (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0036375', 'cui_str': 'School'}, {'cui': 'C2587213', 'cui_str': 'Controlled (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0205197', 'cui_str': 'Complete (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0038951', 'cui_str': 'Surveys'}]","[{'cui': 'C0332583', 'cui_str': 'Green color (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C1720485', 'cui_str': 'Corneal epithelial microcysts'}, {'cui': 'C0178499', 'cui_str': 'Base'}, {'cui': 'C0199176', 'cui_str': 'Prophylaxis - procedure intent (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C2728259', 'cui_str': 'Program'}]","[{'cui': 'C3489576', 'cui_str': 'Sexual Violence'}, {'cui': 'C0004927', 'cui_str': 'Behavior'}, {'cui': 'C0392756', 'cui_str': 'Reduced (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0042693', 'cui_str': 'Violence'}, {'cui': 'C0205217', 'cui_str': 'Increased (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0441472', 'cui_str': 'Action (qualifier value)'}]",,0.0240952,Time-framed path model analyses indicated that the intervention worked as expected to increase bystander behaviors and reduce violence acceptance; both potential mediators were significantly associated with sexual violence perpetration.,"[{'ForeName': 'Heather M', 'Initials': 'HM', 'LastName': 'Bush', 'Affiliation': 'University of Kentucky, Lexington, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Ann L', 'Initials': 'AL', 'LastName': 'Coker', 'Affiliation': 'University of Kentucky, Lexington, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Sarah', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'DeGue', 'Affiliation': 'Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Atlanta, GA, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Emily R', 'Initials': 'ER', 'LastName': 'Clear', 'Affiliation': 'University of Kentucky, Lexington, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Candace J', 'Initials': 'CJ', 'LastName': 'Brancato', 'Affiliation': 'University of Kentucky, Lexington, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Bonnie S', 'Initials': 'BS', 'LastName': 'Fisher', 'Affiliation': 'University of Cincinnati, OH, USA.'}]",Journal of interpersonal violence,['10.1177/0886260519888206']
1158,30981618,Efficacy of Non-ablative Laser Therapy for Lichen Sclerosus: A Randomized Controlled Trial.,"OBJECTIVE
The aim of this randomized controlled trial was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of neodymium: yttrium aluminum garnet laser treatment of lichen sclerosus (LS) by comparing it with topical corticosteroid treatment.
METHODS
A total of 40 female patients with vulvar LS were randomized 1:1 into a study (laser) group and a control (topical corticosteroids) group. The laser group received three laser treatments. Blinded evaluators evaluated biopsies and graded improvement on clinical photographs at baseline and at 3 months. Patients graded the intensity of symptoms on a 0 to 10 visual analogue scale at baseline and 1-, 3-, and 6-month follow-up. Patients also rated the tolerability of laser treatments, and side effects were monitored. (Canadian Task Force classification I) RESULTS: Laser treatment discomfort was on average 1.5 of 10 on the visual analogue scale. At 1- and 3-month follow-up, patients in the laser group had significantly greater improvement in LS symptoms (burning, itching, pain, and dyspareunia), better patient satisfaction, and greater reduction of sclerosis than patients in the topical corticosteroid group. At 6-month follow-up, the improvement of symptoms in the laser group was still significant. The correct order of photographs (before and after treatment) was assigned significantly more often in the laser-treated patients compared with the control group.
CONCLUSION
Laser therapy for LS caused minimal patient discomfort during the treatment, with no adverse effects, and demonstrated better efficacy than in the control group, with significant improvement lasting up to 6 months. Laser therapy is a promising option for patients not responding to topical corticosteroid therapy or patients wishing to reduce long-term corticosteroid maintenance use.",2019,"At 1- and 3-month follow-up, patients in the laser group had significantly greater improvement in LS symptoms (burning, itching, pain, and dyspareunia), better patient satisfaction, and greater reduction of sclerosis than patients in the topical corticosteroid group.","['patients not responding to topical corticosteroid therapy or patients wishing to reduce long-term corticosteroid maintenance use', 'Lichen Sclerosus', '40 female patients with vulvar LS']","['Non-ablative Laser Therapy', 'control (topical corticosteroids', 'Laser therapy', 'neodymium: yttrium aluminum garnet laser treatment']","['Laser treatment discomfort', 'safety and efficacy', 'minimal patient discomfort', 'tolerability of laser treatments, and side effects', 'LS symptoms (burning, itching, pain, and dyspareunia), better patient satisfaction', 'intensity of symptoms on a 0 to 10 visual analogue scale', 'improvement of symptoms']","[{'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C0332237', 'cui_str': 'Topical (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C3539185', 'cui_str': 'Corticosteroid nasal preparations for topical use'}, {'cui': 'C0087111', 'cui_str': 'Therapy'}, {'cui': 'C0392756', 'cui_str': 'Reduced (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0205166', 'cui_str': 'Long (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0024501', 'cui_str': 'Maintenances'}, {'cui': 'C1947944', 'cui_str': 'Use'}, {'cui': 'C0023652', 'cui_str': 'Lichen Sclerosus'}, {'cui': 'C0086287', 'cui_str': 'Females'}]","[{'cui': 'C1955835', 'cui_str': 'Laser Therapy'}, {'cui': 'C2587213', 'cui_str': 'Controlled (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0332237', 'cui_str': 'Topical (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C3539185', 'cui_str': 'Corticosteroid nasal preparations for topical use'}, {'cui': 'C0027599', 'cui_str': 'Neodymium'}, {'cui': 'C0587723', 'cui_str': 'Lasers, Yttrium Aluminum Garnet'}, {'cui': 'C0087111', 'cui_str': 'Therapy'}]","[{'cui': 'C0023089', 'cui_str': 'Lasers'}, {'cui': 'C0087111', 'cui_str': 'Therapy'}, {'cui': 'C2364135', 'cui_str': 'Discomfort (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C0036043', 'cui_str': 'Safety'}, {'cui': 'C0547040', 'cui_str': 'Minimal (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C0001688', 'cui_str': 'side effects'}, {'cui': 'C0683368', 'cui_str': 'symptoms'}, {'cui': 'C0006434', 'cui_str': 'Burns'}, {'cui': 'C0030193', 'cui_str': 'Pain'}, {'cui': 'C0013394', 'cui_str': 'Pain in female genitalia on intercourse (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C0205170', 'cui_str': 'Good (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0030702', 'cui_str': 'Patient Satisfaction'}, {'cui': 'C4049786', 'cui_str': 'Intensities'}, {'cui': 'C3536884', 'cui_str': 'Visual Analog Scale'}]",40.0,0.0832864,"At 1- and 3-month follow-up, patients in the laser group had significantly greater improvement in LS symptoms (burning, itching, pain, and dyspareunia), better patient satisfaction, and greater reduction of sclerosis than patients in the topical corticosteroid group.","[{'ForeName': 'Urška', 'Initials': 'U', 'LastName': 'Bizjak Ogrinc', 'Affiliation': 'Gynecology Clinic Juna, Ljubljana, Slovenia.

1159,30974479,Cognitive functional therapy in patients with non-specific chronic low back pain-a randomized controlled trial 3-year follow-up.,"OBJECTIVES
This randomized controlled trial investigated the efficacy of cognitive functional therapy (CFT) compared with manual therapy and exercise (MT-EX) for people with non-specific chronic low back pain (NSCLBP) at 3-year follow-up.
METHODS
Hundred and twenty-one patients were randomized to CFT (n = 62) or MT-EX (n = 59). Three-year data were available for 30 (48.4%) participants in the CFT group, and 33 (55.9%) participants in the MT-EX group. The primary outcomes were disability (Oswestry disability Index [ODI]) and pain intensity (numerical rating scale) and secondary outcomes were anxiety/depression (Hopkins Symptoms Checklist) and pain-related fear (Fear-Avoidance Belief Questionnaire). A full intention to treat analysis was conducted using linear mixed models.
RESULTS
Significantly greater reductions in disability were observed for the CFT group, with ODI scores at 3 years 6.6 points lower in the CFT than the MT-EX group (95%CI:-10.1 to -3.1, p < 0.001, standardized effect size = 0.70). There was no significant difference in pain intensity between the groups at 3 years (0.6 points 95%CI:-1.4-0.3, p = 0.195). Significantly greater reductions were also observed for the CFT group for Hopkins Symptoms Checklist and Fear-Avoidance Belief Questionnaire (Work).
CONCLUSIONS
CFT is more effective at reducing disability, depression/anxiety and pain-related fear, but not pain, at 3-year follow-up than MT-EX.
SIGNIFICANCE
Cognitive functional therapy (CFT) was more effective than manual therapy and exercise (MT-EX) in reducing disability at 3-year follow-up, in people with non-specific chronic low back pain. The sustained reduction in disability without concomitant reductions in pain intensity in the CFT group suggests a de-coupling of the pain-disability relationship. CFT resulted in long-lasting reductions in anxiety and depression, and pain-related fear regarding work compared to MT-EX. The findings support the long-term benefits of a individualized behaviourally orientated intervention that targets pain beliefs, functional restoration and lifestyle factors.",2019,"CFT resulted in long-lasting reductions in anxiety and depression, and pain-related fear regarding work compared to MT-EX.","['patients with non-specific chronic low back pain', 'people with non-specific chronic low back pain', 'Hundred and twenty-one patients', 'people with non-specific chronic low back pain (NSCLBP) at 3-year follow-up']","['CFT', 'cognitive functional therapy (CFT', 'manual therapy and exercise (MT-EX', 'Cognitive functional therapy (CFT', 'MT-EX', 'Cognitive functional therapy']","['anxiety and depression, and pain-related fear regarding work', 'disability (Oswestry disability Index [ODI]) and pain intensity (numerical rating scale) and secondary outcomes were anxiety/depression (Hopkins Symptoms Checklist) and pain-related fear (Fear-Avoidance Belief Questionnaire', 'pain beliefs, functional restoration and lifestyle factors', 'Hopkins Symptoms Checklist and Fear-Avoidance Belief Questionnaire (Work', 'pain intensity', 'disability, depression/anxiety and pain-related fear', 'disability', 'ODI scores']","[{'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C0205370', 'cui_str': 'Non-specific (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0457949', 'cui_str': 'Chronic low back pain (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C3715213', 'cui_str': '21 (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0439234', 'cui_str': 'year (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0589120', 'cui_str': 'Follow-up'}]","[{'cui': 'C0205245', 'cui_str': 'Functional (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0087111', 'cui_str': 'Therapy'}, {'cui': 'C0454525', 'cui_str': 'Manual Therapies'}, {'cui': 'C0015259', 'cui_str': 'Physical Activity'}]","[{'cui': 'C0003467', 'cui_str': 'Anxiety'}, {'cui': 'C0011581', 'cui_str': 'Neurosis, Depressive'}, {'cui': 'C0030193', 'cui_str': 'Pain'}, {'cui': 'C0015726', 'cui_str': 'Fear'}, {'cui': 'C0043227', 'cui_str': 'Work'}, {'cui': 'C0231170', 'cui_str': 'Disability (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C0451360', 'cui_str': 'Oswestry disability index (assessment scale)'}, {'cui': 'C1320357', 'cui_str': 'Pain intensity'}, {'cui': 'C0222045'}, {'cui': 'C1522484', 'cui_str': 'metastatic'}, {'cui': 'C1707357', 'cui_str': 'Checklist'}, {'cui': 'C0004951', 'cui_str': 'Beliefs'}, {'cui': 'C0034394', 'cui_str': 'Questionnaires'}, {'cui': 'C0205245', 'cui_str': 'Functional (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0449982', 'cui_str': 'Type of restoration (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0023676', 'cui_str': 'Lifestyle'}, {'cui': 'C0449820', 'cui_str': 'Scores (qualifier value)'}]",21.0,0.144855,"CFT resulted in long-lasting reductions in anxiety and depression, and pain-related fear regarding work compared to MT-EX.","[{'ForeName': 'Kjartan', 'Initials': 'K', 'LastName': 'Vibe Fersum', 'Affiliation': 'Physiotherapy Research Group, Department of Public Health and Primary Health Care, University of Bergen, Norway.'}, {'ForeName': 'Anne', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Smith', 'Affiliation': 'School of Physiotherapy, Curtin University, Bentley, WA, Australia.'}, {'ForeName': 'Alice', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Kvåle', 'Affiliation': 'Research group Movement and Function, Western Norway University of Applied Science, Bergen, Norway.'}, {'ForeName': 'Jan Sture', 'Initials': 'JS', 'LastName': 'Skouen', 'Affiliation': 'Physiotherapy Research Group, Department of Public Health and Primary Health Care, University of Bergen, Norway.'}, {'ForeName': 'Peter', 'Initials': 'P', 'LastName': ""O'Sullivan"", 'Affiliation': 'School of Physiotherapy, Curtin University, Bentley, WA, Australia.'}]","European journal of pain (London, England)",['10.1002/ejp.1399']
1160,31000133,Effect of standard dose paracetamol versus placebo as antipyretic therapy on liver injury in adult dengue infection: a multicentre randomised controlled trial.,"BACKGROUND
Dengue is a common cause of acute liver failure in tropical countries. Paracetamol is the recommended antipyretic for dengue. Related observational studies in dengue have suggested that excessive paracetamol intake is related to hepatic injury. We aimed to evaluate whether standard dose paracetamol as an antipyretic in dengue infection caused transaminase elevation, and to evaluate the efficacy of paracetamol.
METHODS
In this randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial, adult participants (aged ≥18 years) with dengue, as confirmed by either positive NS1 antigen, positive dengue IgM antigen with thrombocytopenia, or positive PCR test, were enrolled at three Royal Thai Army hospitals in Thailand. Key exclusion criteria were baseline AST or ALT concentrations of more than 3 times the upper limit of normal, cirrhosis, indication of paracetamol other than dengue infection, concurrent diagnosis of other causes of fever, or pregnancy. Patients were randomly assigned (1:1), by a computer-generated block randomisation procedure (block size of six), to receive either paracetamol (500 mg) or placebo (500 mg) every 4 h when body temperature exceeded 38°C during hospitalisation. Participants and investigators were masked to treatment assignment. The primary outcome was the proportion of participants with transaminase elevation, defined as serum aspartate transaminase (AST) and alanine transaminase (ALT) concentrations of more than 3 times the upper limit of normal on recovery day, in the intention-to-treat population. Prespecified interim analyses for safety and efficacy were performed with group sequential stopping boundaries. This trial is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, number NCT02833584.
FINDINGS
Between Sept 1, 2016, and Dec 12, 2017, 125 participants were randomly assigned to receive either paracetamol (n=63) or placebo (n=62). 123 participants were included in the intention-to-treat population. The median daily dose of study medication was 1·5 g (IQR 0·8-2·0). The study was terminated early owing to a higher rate of transaminase elevation in the paracetamol group than in the placebo group (22% vs 10%; incidence rate ratio 3·77, 95% CI 1·36-10·46, p=0·011). The change of AST and ALT concentrations in the paracetamol group was higher than in the placebo group (mean difference 12·43 U/L per day, 7·16-17·71, p<0·0001 for AST; 7·40 U/L per day, 95% CI 3·68-11·13, p=0·0001 for ALT). Three participants in the paracetamol group had severe dengue: two had upper gastric haemorrhage and one had acute kidney injury. No patients died or had liver failure.
INTERPRETATION
Use of standard dose paracetamol in dengue infection increased the incidence of transaminase elevation, and also overall transaminase concentrations in the absence of a counterbalancing reduced fever or pain score.

1162,31701163,Neural correlates of oxytocin and cue reactivity in cocaine-dependent men and women with and without childhood trauma.,"RATIONALE
Women with cocaine use disorder have worse treatment outcomes compared with men. Sex differences in cocaine addiction may be driven by differences in neurobiology or stress reactivity. Oxytocin is a potential therapeutic for stress reduction in substance use disorders, but no studies have examined the effect of oxytocin on neural response to drug cues in individuals with cocaine use disorders or potential sex differences in this response.
OBJECTIVES
The goal of this study was to examine the effect of intranasal oxytocin on cocaine cue reactivity in cocaine dependence, modulated by gender and history of childhood trauma.
METHODS
Cocaine-dependent men with (n = 24) or without (n = 19) a history of childhood trauma and cocaine-dependent women with (n = 16) or without (n = 8) a history of childhood trauma completed an fMRI cocaine cue reactivity task under intranasal placebo or oxytocin (40 IU) on two different days. fMRI response was measured in the right amygdala and dorsomedial prefrontal cortex (DMPFC).
RESULTS
In the DMPFC, oxytocin reduced fMRI response to cocaine cues across all subject groups. However, in the amygdala, only men with a history of childhood trauma showed a significantly reduced fMRI response to cocaine cues on oxytocin versus placebo, while women with a history of childhood trauma showed an enhanced amygdala response to cocaine cues following oxytocin administration. Cocaine-dependent subjects with no history of childhood trauma showed no effect of oxytocin on amygdala response.

1163,30975627,"Erlotinib plus bevacizumab versus erlotinib alone in patients with EGFR-positive advanced non-squamous non-small-cell lung cancer (NEJ026): interim analysis of an open-label, randomised, multicentre, phase 3 trial.","BACKGROUND
Resistance to first-generation or second-generation EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) monotherapy develops in almost half of patients with EGFR-positive non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) after 1 year of treatment. The JO25567 phase 2 trial comparing erlotinib plus bevacizumab combination therapy with erlotinib monotherapy established the activity and manageable toxicity of erlotinib plus bevacizumab in patients with NSCLC. We did a phase 3 trial to validate the results of the JO25567 study and report here the results from the preplanned interim analysis.
METHODS
In this prespecified interim analysis of the randomised, open-label, phase 3 NEJ026 trial, we recruited patients with stage IIIB-IV disease or recurrent, cytologically or histologically confirmed non-squamous NSCLC with activating EGFR genomic aberrations from 69 centres across Japan. Eligible patients were at least 20 years old, and had an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status of 2 or lower, no previous chemotherapy for advanced disease, and one or more measurable lesions based on Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumours (1.1). Patients were randomly assigned (1:1) to receive oral erlotinib 150 mg per day plus intravenous bevacizumab 15 mg/kg once every 21 days, or erlotinib 150 mg per day monotherapy. Randomisation was done by minimisation, stratified by sex, smoking status, clinical stage, and EGFR mutation subtype. The primary endpoint was progression-free survival. This study is ongoing; the data cutoff for this prespecified interim analysis was Sept 21, 2017. Efficacy was analysed in the modified intention-to-treat population, which included all randomly assigned patients who received at least one dose of treatment and had at least one response evaluation. Safety was analysed in all patients who received at least one dose of study drug. The trial is registered with the University Hospital Medical Information Network Clinical Trials Registry, number UMIN000017069.
FINDINGS
Between June 3, 2015, and Aug 31, 2016, 228 patients were randomly assigned to receive erlotinib plus bevacizumab (n=114) or erlotinib alone (n=114). 112 patients in each group were evaluable for efficacy, and safety was evaluated in 112 patients in the combination therapy group and 114 in the monotherapy group. Median follow-up was 12·4 months (IQR 7·0-15·7). At the time of interim analysis, median progression-free survival for patients in the erlotinib plus bevacizumab group was 16·9 months (95% CI 14·2-21·0) compared with 13·3 months (11·1-15·3) for patients in the erlotinib group (hazard ratio 0·605, 95% CI 0·417-0·877; p=0·016). 98 (88%) of 112 patients in the erlotinib plus bevacizumab group and 53 (46%) of 114 patients in the erlotinib alone group had grade 3 or worse adverse events. The most common grade 3-4 adverse event was rash (23 [21%] of 112 patients in the erlotinib plus bevacizumab group vs 24 [21%] of 114 patients in the erlotinib alone group). Nine (8%) of 112 patients in the erlotinib plus bevacizumab group and five (4%) of 114 patients in the erlotinib alone group had serious adverse events. The most common serious adverse events were grade 4 neutropenia (two [2%] of 112 patients in the erlotinib plus bevacizumab group) and grade 4 hepatic dysfunction (one [1%] of 112 patients in the erlotinib plus bevacizumab group and one [1%] of 114 patients in the erlotinib alone group). No treatment-related deaths occurred.
INTERPRETATION
The results of this interim analysis showed that bevacizumab plus erlotinib combination therapy improves progression-free survival compared with erlotinib alone in patients with EGFR-positive NSCLC. Future studies with longer follow-up, and overall survival and quality-of-life data will be required to further assess the efficacy of this combination in this setting.

1164,30771362,Improving child weight management uptake through enhanced National Child Measurement Programme parental feedback letters: A randomised controlled trial.,"This single-blind, pragmatic, cluster randomised controlled trial aims to investigate uptake of children's weight management services in response to enhanced National Child Measurement Programme (NCMP) letters providing weight status feedback to parents in three English counties in 2015. Parents of 2642 overweight or very overweight (obese) children aged 10-11 years received an intervention or control letter informing them of their child's weight status. Intervention letters included (i) a visual tool to help weight status recognition, (ii) a social norms statement, and for very overweight children, (iii) a prepopulated booking form for weight management services. The primary outcome was weight management service enrolment. Additional outcome measures included attendance at and contact made with weight management services, and a number of self-report variables. A small effect was observed, with intervention parents being significantly more likely to enrol their children in weight management services (4.33% of Intervention group) than control parents (2.19% of Control group) in both unadjusted (OR = 2.08, p = .008) and adjusted analyses (AOR = 2.48, p = .001). A similar picture emerged for contact with services (4.80% Intervention vs. 2.41% Control; OR = 2.10, p = .003; AOR = 2.46, p < .001) and attendance at services, although group differences in the latter measure were not significant after corrections for multiple comparisons (1.89% Intervention vs. 1.02% Control; AOR = 2.11, p = .047).

1165,30980514,Efficacy and Safety of Intravenous Golimumab Through One Year in Patients With Active Psoriatic Arthritis.,"OBJECTIVE
The present study was undertaken to evaluate the safety and efficacy of intravenous (IV) golimumab in patients with active psoriatic arthritis (PsA) through 1 year.
METHODS
GO-VIBRANT was a phase III, randomized, placebo-controlled trial of 480 adults with active PsA. Patients were randomized to receive IV placebo (n = 239) or golimumab 2 mg/kg (n = 241) at weeks 0, 4, and every 8 weeks, with placebo crossover to golimumab at weeks 24, 28, and every 8 weeks thereafter. Efficacy through week 52 was assessed using the American College of Rheumatology (ACR) ≥20%, 50%, or 70% improvement criteria (ACR20/50/70), and the Psoriasis Area and Severity Index ≥75% improvement criteria (PASI75). Radiographic progression was measured using the PsA-modified Sharp/van der Heijde score (SHS). Adverse events (AEs) were monitored through week 60.
RESULTS
The primary and major secondary end points through week 24 were achieved. At week 52, 76.8% of patients in the golimumab group and 77.0% in the placebo-crossover group achieved an ACR20 response, 58.1% and 53.6%, respectively, achieved an ACR50 response, and 38.6% and 33.9%, respectively, achieved an ACR70 response. Among patients with ≥3% body surface area affected, 71.9% in the golimumab group and 60.6% in the placebo-crossover group achieved a PASI75 response at week 52. Mean change from baseline in total SHS at week 52 was -0.5 in the golimumab group and 0.8 in the placebo-crossover group. Through week 60, 50.9% of all golimumab-treated patients had ≥1 AE, and 5.2% had ≥1 serious AE. There were no opportunistic infections, 2 malignancies, and 1 death in patients treated with golimumab.
CONCLUSION

1166,30945297,Effect of pomegranate seed oil supplementation on the GLUT-4 gene expression and glycemic control in obese people with type 2 diabetes: A randomized controlled clinical trial.,"Abnormality in glucose transporter type 4 (GLUT-4) function and insulin secretion are the main causes of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Due to adverse effects of antidiabetic drugs, nowadays, nutraceuticals have been of much interest to investigators. The aim of the present study was to determine the effect of pomegranate seed oil (PSO) on the GLUT-4 gene expression and glycemic control in obese people with T2DM. This randomized clinical trial was conducted on 52 obese type 2 diabetic patients for 8 weeks in Tabriz, Iran, in 2018. Patients were divided into the intervention group (n = 26; who consumed daily three capsules containing 1 g PSO) and the placebo group (n = 26; the same amounts paraffin). GLUT-4 gene expression and glycemic indices were evaluated by standard methods. GLUT-4 gene expression was increased significantly in the PSO group. Within-group changes in fasting blood sugar (FBS) and quantitative insulin sensitivity check index were significant in the PSO group. After adjusting the age, gender, and baseline values, FBS was significantly decreased. Insulin concentration, HbA1C, HOMA-IR, and HOMA-β did not manifest significant changes. PSO increased the GLUT-4 gene expression in diabetic patients without any side effects. However, future clinical studies are needed to confirm the obtained results.",2019,"Insulin concentration, HbA1C, HOMA-IR, and HOMA-β did not manifest significant changes.","['52 obese type 2 diabetic patients for 8 weeks in Tabriz, Iran, in 2018', 'obese people with T2DM', 'obese people with type 2 diabetes', 'diabetic patients']","['pomegranate seed oil supplementation', 'placebo', 'consumed daily three capsules containing 1\u2009g PSO', 'pomegranate seed oil (PSO', 'PSO']","['quantitative insulin sensitivity check index', 'fasting blood sugar (FBS', 'GLUT-4 gene expression and glycemic indices', 'GLUT-4 gene expression', 'Insulin concentration, HbA1C, HOMA-IR, and HOMA-β', 'GLUT-4 gene expression and glycemic control']","[{'cui': 'C0028754', 'cui_str': 'Obesity'}, {'cui': 'C0441730', 'cui_str': 'Type 2 (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0241863', 'cui_str': 'Diabetic'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C0439230', 'cui_str': 'week (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0022065', 'cui_str': 'Islamic Republic of Iran'}, {'cui': 'C0332307', 'cui_str': 'Type - attribute'}]","[{'cui': 'C3256645', 'cui_str': 'POMEGRANATE SEED OIL'}, {'cui': 'C1696465', 'cui_str': 'placebo'}, {'cui': 'C0332173', 'cui_str': 'Daily (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C4319574', 'cui_str': 'Capsule'}, {'cui': 'C0332256', 'cui_str': 'Containing (qualifier value)'}]","[{'cui': 'C0392762', 'cui_str': 'Quantitative (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0920563', 'cui_str': 'Insulin Sensitivity'}, {'cui': 'C0600653', 'cui_str': 'Indexes'}, {'cui': 'C0456962', 'cui_str': 'Rapidly'}, {'cui': 'C0005802', 'cui_str': 'Blood Sugar'}, {'cui': 'C0017262', 'cui_str': 'Gene Expression'}, {'cui': 'C1136206', 'cui_str': 'Glycemic Index Number'}, {'cui': 'C0202098', 'cui_str': 'Insulin measurement (procedure)'}, {'cui': 'C0086045', 'cui_str': 'Concentration'}, {'cui': 'C0202054', 'cui_str': 'HbA1C'}, {'cui': 'C2587213', 'cui_str': 'Controlled (qualifier value)'}]",52.0,0.0660053,"Insulin concentration, HbA1C, HOMA-IR, and HOMA-β did not manifest significant changes.","[{'ForeName': 'Yaser', 'Initials': 'Y', 'LastName': 'Khajebishak', 'Affiliation': 'Talented Student Center, Student Research Committee, Nutrition Research Center, Tabriz University of Medical Sciences, Tabriz, Iran.'}, {'ForeName': 'Laleh', 'Initials': 'L', 'LastName': 'Payahoo', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Nutrition, Maragheh University of Medical Sciences, Maragheh, Iran.'}, {'ForeName': 'Mohammadreza', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Alivand', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Medical Genetics, Faculty of Medicine, Tabriz University of Medical Sciences, Tabriz, Iran.'}, {'ForeName': 'Hamed', 'Initials': 'H', 'LastName': 'Hamishehkar', 'Affiliation': 'Drug Applied Research Center, Tabriz University of Medical Sciences, Tabriz, Iran.'}, {'ForeName': 'Majid', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Mobasseri', 'Affiliation': 'Endocrinology Research Center, Tabriz University of Medical Sciences, Tabriz, Iran.'}, {'ForeName': 'Vahide', 'Initials': 'V', 'LastName': 'Ebrahimzadeh', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Nutrition, Maragheh University of Medical Sciences, Maragheh, Iran.'}, {'ForeName': 'Mahdiye', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Alipour', 'Affiliation': 'Dental and Periodontal Research Center, Faculty of Dentistry, Tabriz University of Medical Sciences, Tabriz, Iran.'}, {'ForeName': 'Beitollah', 'Initials': 'B', 'LastName': 'Alipour', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Community Nutrition, Faculty of Nutrition, Tabriz University of Medical Sciences, Tabriz, Iran.'}]",Journal of cellular physiology,['10.1002/jcp.28561']
1167,32410819,Phase I Study in Healthy Women of a Novel Antimycotic Vaginal Ovule Combining Econazole and Benzydamine.,"Purpose
A novel fixed-dose combination of 150 mg of econazole with 6 mg of benzydamine formulated in vaginal ovules was investigated in a randomised, double-blind, four-parallel group, tolerability, and pharmacokinetic Phase I study in healthy women.
Methods
The fixed-dose combination was compared to econazole and benzydamine single-drug formulations and with placebo after daily applications for 3 consecutive days. Safety and tolerability were evaluated recording the adverse drug reactions, local and general tolerability scores, clinical laboratory assays, and vital signs. Econazole, benzydamine, and its metabolite benzydamine N-oxide pharmacokinetics were investigated after single and multiple applications.
Results
Local reactions were generally absent. Pruritus and pain at the application site were infrequently reported. According to the subjects' evaluations, the overall tolerability of the ovules was rated as excellent or good. No significant effect of any treatment on laboratory parameters, vital signs, body weight, vaginal pH, or ECG was observed. Very low econazole, benzydamine, and benzydamine-N-oxide concentrations were measured in plasma, though quantifiable in almost all samples.
Conclusion
The tested fixed-dose combination showed a good safety profile consistently with the known tolerability of both active substances. In addition, the confirmed low bioavailability of the drugs excludes the possibility of any accumulation effects and limits the risk of undesired systemic effects.

1168,32410922,Personalization of CM Injection Protocols in Coronary Computed Tomographic Angiography (People CT Trial).,"Aim
To evaluate the performance of three contrast media (CM) injection protocols for cardiac computed tomography angiography (CCTA) based on body weight (BW), lean BW (LBW), and cardiac output (CO). Materials and methods . A total of 327 consecutive patients referred for CCTA were randomized into one of the three CM injection protocols, where CM injection was based on either BW (112 patients), LBW (108 patients), or CO (107 patients). LBW and CO were calculated via formulas. All scans were ECG-gated and performed on a third-generation dual-source CT with 70-120 kV (automated tube voltage selection) and 100 kV qual.ref /330 mAs qual.ref . CM injection protocols were also adapted to scan time and tube voltage. The primary outcome was the proportion of patients with optimal intravascular attenuation (325-500 HU). Secondary outcomes were mean and standard deviation of intravascular attenuation values (HU), contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR), and subjective image quality with a 4-point Likert scale (1 = poor/2 = sufficient/3 = good/4 = excellent). The t -test for independent samples was used for pairwise comparisons between groups, and a chi-square test ( χ 2) was used to compare categorical variables between groups. All p values were 2-sided, and a p < 0.05 was considered statistically significant.
Results
Mean overall HU and CNR were 423 ± 60HU/14 ± 3 (BW), 404 ± 62HU/14 ± 3 (LBW), and 413 ± 63HU/14 ± 3 (CO) with a significant difference between groups BW and LBW ( p =0.024). The proportion of patients with optimal intravascular attenuation (325-500 HU) was 83.9%, 84.3%, and 86.9% for groups BW, LBW, and CO, respectively, and between-group differences were small and nonsignificant. Mean CNR was diagnostic (≥10) in all groups. The proportion of scans with good-excellent image quality was 94.6%, 86.1%, and 90.7% in the BW, LBW, and CO groups, respectively. The difference between proportions was significant between the BW and LBW groups.
Conclusion
Personalization of CM injection protocols based on BW, LBW, and CO, and scan time and tube voltage in CCTA resulted in low variation between patients in terms of intravascular attenuation and a high proportion of scans with an optimal intravascular attenuation. The results suggest that personalized CM injection protocols based on LBW or CO have no additional benefit when compared with CM injection protocols based on BW.",2020,The results suggest that personalized CM injection protocols based on LBW or CO have no additional benefit when compared with CM injection protocols based on BW.,['327 consecutive patients referred for CCTA'],['three contrast media (CM) injection protocols for cardiac computed tomography angiography (CCTA'],"['mean and standard deviation of intravascular attenuation values (HU), contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR), and subjective image quality with a 4-point Likert scale', 'proportion of patients with optimal intravascular attenuation', 'LBW and CO', 'proportion of scans with good-excellent image quality', 'body weight (BW), lean BW (LBW), and cardiac output (CO', 'Mean CNR', 'Mean overall HU and CNR', 'BW, LBW, and CO, and scan time and tube voltage']","[{'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patient'}, {'cui': 'C1691010', 'cui_str': 'Referral placed'}, {'cui': 'C0018787', 'cui_str': 'Heart structure'}, {'cui': 'C0040405', 'cui_str': 'Computerized axial tomography'}, {'cui': 'C0002978', 'cui_str': 'Angiography'}]","[{'cui': 'C0009924', 'cui_str': 'Contrast media'}, {'cui': 'C0021485', 'cui_str': 'Injection of therapeutic agent'}, {'cui': 'C0442711', 'cui_str': 'Protocols'}, {'cui': 'C0018787', 'cui_str': 'Heart structure'}, {'cui': 'C0040405', 'cui_str': 'Computerized axial tomography'}, {'cui': 'C0002978', 'cui_str': 'Angiography'}]","[{'cui': 'C0444504', 'cui_str': 'Mean'}, {'cui': 'C0871420', 'cui_str': 'Standard deviation'}, {'cui': 'C0442123', 'cui_str': 'Intravascular'}, {'cui': 'C1273875', 'cui_str': 'Values (community)'}, {'cui': 'C0009924', 'cui_str': 'Contrast media'}, {'cui': 'C0028263', 'cui_str': 'Noise'}, {'cui': 'C0456603', 'cui_str': 'Ratio'}, {'cui': 'C0439655', 'cui_str': 'Subjective'}, {'cui': 'C1846009', 'cui_str': 'Intrauterine growth restriction, metaphyseal dysplasia, adrenal hypoplasia congenita, and genital anomaly syndrome'}, {'cui': 'C0332306', 'cui_str': 'Quality'}, {'cui': 'C0451267', 'cui_str': 'Likert scale'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patient'}, {'cui': 'C0007165', 'cui_str': 'Cardiac output'}, {'cui': 'C0034606', 'cui_str': 'Nuclear medicine imaging procedure'}, {'cui': 'C0038848', 'cui_str': 'Supplies'}, {'cui': 'C1961136', 'cui_str': 'Excellent'}, {'cui': 'C0005910', 'cui_str': 'Body weight'}, {'cui': 'C0282416', 'cui_str': 'Overall'}, {'cui': 'C0040223', 'cui_str': 'Time'}, {'cui': 'C0175730', 'cui_str': 'Tube'}]",327.0,0.0186532,The results suggest that personalized CM injection protocols based on LBW or CO have no additional benefit when compared with CM injection protocols based on BW.,"[{'ForeName': 'N G', 'Initials': 'NG', 'LastName': 'Eijsvoogel', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Radiology, Maastricht University Medical Center+, P.

1169,30932133,The Effect of Branched Chain Amino Acids-Enriched Nutritional Supplements on Activities of Daily Living and Muscle Mass in Inpatients with Gait Impairments: A Randomized Controlled Trial.,"OBJECTIVE
To investigate the effects of continuous intervention with branched chain amino acids-enriched nutritional supplements from the acute phase to convalescent rehabilitation wards in inpatients with gait impairments.
DESIGN
Open-label, randomized, parallel-group comparison study (UMIN Clinical Trials Registry ID: UMIN000018640).
SETTING
Acute care and convalescent rehabilitation wards.
PARTICIPANTS
We studied 80 patients undergoing stand/gait training.
INTERVENTIONS
Participants in the intervention group (RJ group) received nutritional supplements (jelly foods comprising 2500 mg BCAA and 20 IU vitamin D) twice a day until hospital discharge.
MEASUREMENTS
The primary outcome was the motor components of the Functional Independence Measure (FIM-m), and the secondary outcome was skeletal muscle mass index.
RESULTS
Analyses were conducted on 55 patients who were able to perform stand/gait training continuously from the acute until the recovery phases. FIM-m was significantly elevated in the RJ group and the control group , but no difference was noted between the two groups. Only the RJ group showed a significant increase in skeletal muscle mass index, and the amount of variation was significantly different between the two groups (the control group decreased an average of 2.2% and the RJ group increased an average of 4.3%; P = 0.014). A significant decrease in body weight was found only in the control group (P = 0.084).

1170,30932134,Regulation of Amino Acid Transporters and Sensors in Response to a High protein Diet: A Randomized Controlled Trial in Elderly Men.,"BACKGROUND
The mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) is fundamental for many cellular processes, yet it is often dysregulated with aging. Increased amino acid (AA) availability is correlated with the expression of AA transporters (AAT) and mTORC1 activity. Although many AA sensors and mediators have been proposed to relay the AA signal to mTORC1, it has not yet been determined if chronic dietary intervention affects the expression of AAT, sensors and mediators and their relationships with mTORC1 activity.
OBJECTIVE AND DESIGN
This study investigated whether the consumption of a diet containing either the current recommended daily allowance (RDA) of protein intake (0.8 g/kg/d) or twice the RDA (2RDA) for ten weeks affected the expression of targets associated with AA transport, sensing and mTORC1 regulation in 26 older men (70-81 years).
METHOD
Muscle biopsies were collected before and after the intervention under fasting conditions. Diets were controlled by providing fully prepared meals and snacks. Western blot and quantitative polymerase chain reaction were used to measure protein and gene expression respectively.
RESULTS
Consumption of 2RDA reduced the protein expression of L-type amino acid transporter 1 (LAT1). However, plasma leucine concentration and basal mTORC1 activity were unaltered. The downregulation of LAT1 did not affect the expression of AA sensors and mediators, including leucyl tRNA synthetase (LRS), cytosolic arginine sensor for mTORC1 (CASTOR1), Sestrin2 and Rag proteins. Instead, total ribosomal protein S6 (RPS6) was upregulated with 2RDA.
CONCLUSION
Ten weeks of 2RDA diet did not affect the fasting mTORC1 signaling, but increased total RPS6 might suggest improved muscular translational capacity to maintain muscular mass.",2019,"The downregulation of LAT1 did not affect the expression of AA sensors and mediators, including leucyl tRNA synthetase (LRS), cytosolic arginine sensor for mTORC1 (CASTOR1), Sestrin2 and Rag proteins.","['26 older men (70-81 years', 'Elderly Men']",['diet containing either the current recommended daily allowance (RDA) of protein intake (0.8 g/kg/d) or twice the RDA (2RDA'],"['total ribosomal protein S6 (RPS6', 'expression of AA sensors and mediators, including leucyl tRNA synthetase (LRS), cytosolic arginine sensor for mTORC1 (CASTOR1), Sestrin2 and Rag proteins', 'Increased amino acid (AA) availability', 'plasma leucine concentration and basal mTORC1 activity', 'protein expression of L-type amino acid transporter 1 (LAT1', 'fasting mTORC1 signaling']","[{'cui': 'C0677546', 'cui_str': 'Old episode (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0086418', 'cui_str': 'Humans'}, {'cui': 'C0439234', 'cui_str': 'year (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0524337', 'cui_str': 'Elderly man (person)'}]","[{'cui': 'C0012155', 'cui_str': 'Diet'}, {'cui': 'C0332256', 'cui_str': 'Containing (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0521116', 'cui_str': 'Current (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0524786', 'cui_str': 'Recommended Daily Allowances'}, {'cui': 'C0033684', 'cui_str': 'Proteins'}, {'cui': 'C4517481', 'cui_str': '0.8'}, {'cui': 'C1300563', 'cui_str': 'ug/mg'}, {'cui': 'C1720725', 'cui_str': 'Twice'}]","[{'cui': 'C0439810', 'cui_str': 'Total (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0073336', 'cui_str': 'Ribosomal Protein S6'}, {'cui': 'C3854321', 'cui_str': 'Expression'}, {'cui': 'C0332257', 'cui_str': 'Including (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0023414', 'cui_str': 'Leucine-tRNA Synthetase'}, {'cui': 'C0968133', 'cui_str': 'alpha-(trifluoromethyl)arginine'}, {'cui': 'C3888046', 'cui_str': 'mTORC1 Complex'}, {'cui': 'C0380301', 'cui_str': 'LERK-7 Protein'}, {'cui': 'C1291157', 'cui_str': 'Increased amino acid'}, {'cui': 'C0032105', 'cui_str': 'Blood Plasma'}, {'cui': 'C0023401', 'cui_str': 'L-leucine'}, {'cui': 'C0086045', 'cui_str': 'Concentration'}, {'cui': 'C0205112', 'cui_str': 'Basal (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0441655', 'cui_str': 'Activity (observable entity)'}, {'cui': 'C0033684', 'cui_str': 'Proteins'}, {'cui': 'C0441704', 'cui_str': 'Typings (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0949771', 'cui_str': 'Amino Acid Transporter'}, {'cui': 'C0456962', 'cui_str': 'Rapidly'}]",,0.0337827,"The downregulation of LAT1 did not affect the expression of AA sensors and mediators, including leucyl tRNA synthetase (LRS), cytosolic arginine sensor for mTORC1 (CASTOR1), Sestrin2 and Rag proteins.","[{'ForeName': 'N', 'Initials': 'N', 'LastName': 'Zeng', 'Affiliation': 'Dr. Cameron Mitchell Faculty of Education | School of Kinesiology, The University of British Columbia | Vancouver Campus, 2553 Wesbrook Mall | Vancouver British Columbia | V6T 1Z3 Canada, Phone 604 827 2072| Cell 604 790 3815, cameron.mitchell@ubc.ca.'}, {'ForeName': 'U', 'Initials': 'U', 'LastName': 'Prodhan', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'R F', 'Initials': 'RF', 'LastName': ""D'Souza"", 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'F', 'Initials': 'F', 'LastName': 'Ramzan', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'S M', 'Initials': 'SM', 'LastName': 'Mitchell', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'P', 'Initials': 'P', 'LastName': 'Sharma', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'S O', 'Initials': 'SO', 'LastName': 'Knowles', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'N C', 'Initials': 'NC', 'LastName': 'Roy', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'A', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Sjödin', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'K-H', 'Initials': 'KH', 'LastName': 'Wagner', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'A M', 'Initials': 'AM', 'LastName': 'Milan', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'D', 'Initials': 'D', 'LastName': 'Cameron-Smith', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'C J', 'Initials': 'CJ', 'LastName': 'Mitchell', 'Affiliation': ''}]","The journal of nutrition, health & aging",['10.1007/s12603-019-1171-4']
1171,32410849,Pioglitazone Metformin Complex Improves Polycystic Ovary Syndrome Comorbid Psychological Distress via Inhibiting NLRP3 Inflammasome Activation: A Prospective Clinical Study.,"Objective
This study aimed at investigating the therapeutic effect and mechanism of pioglitazone metformin complex preparation (PM) in polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) comorbid psychological distress.
Methods
Seventy-five patients with PCOS comorbid psychological distress were randomly allocated into the PM, metformin, and placebo groups. The primary efficacy measure was the change from baseline to week 12 on the Symptom Checklist 90-R (SCL-90-R) scores. NLRP3 inflammasome, IL-1 β , IL-6, TNF- α , and biochemical parameters were determined at baseline and at week 12. The participants were required to meet the criteria for PCOS (Rotterdam, NIH) and psychological distress (any factor scores of SCL - 90 - R > 2).
Results
The participants had significantly high scores on the SCL-90-R scales of anxiety and depression. PM significantly decreased anxiety and depression symptom severity (from 2.31 ± 0.75 to 1.65 ± 0.38, p < 0.001, and from 2.08 ± 0.74 to 1.61 ± 0.46, p = 0.010, at week 12, respectively). PM significantly decreased the expression of NRPL3 and caspase-1. Patients in the PM group experienced a significant reduction in IL-1 β (from 98.42 ± 14.38 to 71.76 ± 13.66, p = 0.02), IL-6 (from 87.51 ± 8.74 to 71.98 ± 15.87, p = 0.02), and TNF- α (from 395.33 ± 88.55 to 281.98 ± 85.69, p = 0.04). PM was superior to metformin in reducing total testosterone (2.24 ± 0.74 versus 3.06 ± 0.83, p = 0.024, at week 12).
Conclusions
This study is the first to reveal that PM alleviates psychological distress via inhibiting NLRP3 inflammasome and improves several markers, including total testosterone.",2020,"Patients in the PM group experienced a significant reduction in IL-1 β (from 98.42 ± 14.38 to 71.76 ± 13.66, p = 0.02), IL-6","['Polycystic Ovary Syndrome Comorbid Psychological Distress via Inhibiting NLRP3', 'polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) comorbid psychological distress', 'Methods\n\n\nSeventy-five patients with PCOS comorbid psychological distress']","['pioglitazone metformin complex preparation (PM', 'Pioglitazone Metformin Complex', 'PM, metformin, and placebo', 'metformin']","['Inflammasome Activation', 'expression of NRPL3 and caspase-1', 'Symptom Checklist 90-R (SCL-90-R) scores', 'IL-1 β', 'total testosterone', 'NLRP3 inflammasome, IL-1 β , IL-6, TNF- α , and biochemical parameters', 'anxiety and depression symptom severity', 'criteria for PCOS (Rotterdam, NIH) and psychological distress', 'SCL-90-R scales of anxiety and depression', 'IL-6']","[{'cui': 'C0032460', 'cui_str': 'Polycystic ovary syndrome'}, {'cui': 'C0815107', 'cui_str': 'Emotional Distress'}, {'cui': 'C0025663', 'cui_str': 'Method'}, {'cui': 'C4319621', 'cui_str': '75'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patient'}]","[{'cui': 'C0071097', 'cui_str': 'pioglitazone'}, {'cui': 'C0025598', 'cui_str': 'Metformin'}, {'cui': 'C0056210', 'cui_str': 'complex V (mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation system)'}, {'cui': 'C0032042', 'cui_str': 'Sham Treatment'}]","[{'cui': 'C2936529', 'cui_str': 'Inflammasome'}, {'cui': 'C0015457', 'cui_str': 'Facial expression'}, {'cui': 'C0534519', 'cui_str': 'Caspase-1'}, {'cui': 'C0451524', 'cui_str': 'Symptom checklist'}, {'cui': 'C0449820', 'cui_str': 'Score'}, {'cui': 'C0021755', 'cui_str': 'Interleukin-1'}, {'cui': 'C0202227', 'cui_str': 'Testosterone measurement, total'}, {'cui': 'C0021760', 'cui_str': 'Interleukin-6'}, {'cui': 'C0041368', 'cui_str': 'TNF Receptor Ligands'}, {'cui': 'C0205474', 'cui_str': 'Biochemical'}, {'cui': 'C0449381', 'cui_str': 'Observation parameter'}, {'cui': 'C0003467', 'cui_str': 'Anxiety'}, {'cui': 'C0086132', 'cui_str': 'Symptoms of depression'}, {'cui': 'C0439793', 'cui_str': 'Severities'}, {'cui': 'C0243161', 'cui_str': 'criteria'}, {'cui': 'C0032460', 'cui_str': 'Polycystic ovary syndrome'}, {'cui': 'C0027468', 'cui_str': 'United States National Institutes of Health'}, {'cui': 'C0815107', 'cui_str': 'Emotional Distress'}, {'cui': 'C0175659', 'cui_str': 'Scale'}, {'cui': 'C0011570', 'cui_str': 'Depression'}]",75.0,0.046925,"Patients in the PM group experienced a significant reduction in IL-1 β (from 98.42 ± 14.38 to 71.76 ± 13.66, p = 0.02), IL-6","[{'ForeName': 'Qing-Jun', 'Initials': 'QJ', 'LastName': 'Guo', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Endocrinology, Changhai Hospital, Naval Medical University, Shanghai, China.'}, {'ForeName': 'Jing', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Shan', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Changhai Hospital, Naval Medical University, Shanghai, China.'}, {'ForeName': 'Yi-Feng', 'Initials': 'YF', 'LastName': 'Xu', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Endocrinology, Changhai Hospital, Naval Medical University, Shanghai, China.'}, {'ForeName': 'Yan-Yan', 'Initials': 'YY', 'LastName': 'Hu', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Endocrinology, Changhai Hospital, Naval Medical University, Shanghai, China.'}, {'ForeName': 'Cui-Lan', 'Initials': 'CL', 'LastName': 'Huo', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Endocrinology, Changhai Hospital, Naval Medical University, Shanghai, China.'}, {'ForeName': 'Jing-Yun', 'Initials': 'JY', 'LastName': 'Song', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Endocrinology, Changhai Hospital, Naval Medical University, Shanghai, China.'}, {'ForeName': 'Chao-Qun', 'Initials': 'CQ', 'LastName': 'Wang', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Endocrinology, Changhai Hospital, Naval Medical University, Shanghai, China.'}, {'ForeName': 'Hui', 'Initials': 'H', 'LastName': 'Zhou', 'Affiliation': 'Changning Retirement Cadre Rest Care Clinic, Garrison District Shanghai, China.'}, {'ForeName': 'Chao-Qin', 'Initials': 'CQ', 'LastName': 'Yu', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Changhai Hospital, Naval Medical University, Shanghai, China.'}, {'ForeName': 'Qin', 'Initials': 'Q', 'LastName': 'Huang', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Endocrinology, Changhai Hospital, Naval Medical University, Shanghai, China.'}]",Mediators of inflammation,['10.1155/2020/3050487']

1173,32407060,A split-mouth study comparing piezo electric surgery and traditional rotary burs on impacted third molars in young patients: an intraoperative and postoperative evaluation.,"BACKGROUND
Surgery has been used in many different medical fields, for instance it is used in the field of oral surgery, as a valuable alternative to traditional rotary burs. Its first use dates to 1975 by Horton even if the first effective device for use in dentistry, has been developed by Vercellotti after the year 2000. The hypothesis of this study is that piezosurgery technology is more suitable in terms of specific intra-operative and post-operative evaluations compared to the rotary technology in ostectomy for the avulsion of the third molar germ. The null hypothesis presented is the lack of significant differences between the two technologies after and during surgery.
MATERIAL AND METHODS
Intraoperative and postoperative aspects are evaluated for a comparison between traditional rotary instruments and piezosurgery during germectomies in young patients through a blind randomized study (split-mouth). The surgical technique to employ for each hemi-arch was randomly selected from a computer algorithm. Different criteria were considered during the surgical procedure, in order to compare the two techniques.
RESULTS
The piezoelectric technique demanded more time than traditional rotary method, and the difference was statistically significant both for the time of the entire procedure and the time only required for the ostectomy itself. Post-operative evaluations such as: maximum mouth opening, facial swelling and post- operative pain showed no statistical difference.

1174,32410951,Angiotensin II-Type I Receptor Antagonism Does Not Influence the Chemoreceptor Reflex or Hypoxia-Induced Central Sleep Apnea in Men.,"Components of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) situated within the carotid body or central nervous system may promote hypoxia-induced chemoreceptor reflex sensitization or central sleep apnea (CSA). We determined if losartan, an angiotensin-II type-I receptor (AT 1 R) antagonist, would attenuate chemoreceptor reflex sensitivity before or after 8 h of nocturnal hypoxia, and consequently CSA severity. In a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, crossover protocol, 14 men (age: 25 ± 2 years; BMI: 24.6 ± 1.1 kg/m 2 ; means ± SEM) ingested 3 doses of either losartan (50 mg) or placebo every 8 h. Chemoreceptor reflex sensitivity was assessed during hypoxic and hyperoxic hypercapnic ventilatory response (HCVR) tests and during six-20s hypoxic apneas before and after 8 h of sleep in normobaric hypoxia (F I O 2 = 0.135). Loop gain was assessed from a ventilatory control model fitted to the ventilatory pattern of CSA recorded during polysomnography. Prior to nocturnal hypoxia, losartan had no effect on either the hyperoxic (losartan: 3.6 ± 1.1, placebo: 4.0 ± 0.6 l/min/mmHg; P = 0.9) or hypoxic HCVR (losartan: 5.3 ± 1.4, placebo: 5.7 ± 0.68 l/min/mmHg; P = 1.0). Likewise, losartan did not influence either the hyperoxic (losartan: 4.2 ± 1.3, placebo: 3.8 ± 1.1 l/min/mmHg; P = 0.5) or hypoxic HCVR (losartan: 6.6 ± 1.8, placebo: 6.3 ± 1.5 l/min/mmHg; P = 0.9) after nocturnal hypoxia. Cardiorespiratory responses to apnea and participants' apnea hypopnea indexes during placebo and losartan were similar (73 ± 15 vs. 75 ± 14 events/h; P = 0.9). Loop gain, which correlated with CSA severity ( r = 0.94, P < 0.001), was similar between treatments. In summary, in young healthy men, hypoxia-induced CSA severity is strongly associated with loop gain, but the AT 1 R does not modulate chemoreceptor reflex sensitivity before or after 8 h of nocturnal hypoxia.",2020,"Prior to nocturnal hypoxia, losartan had no effect on either the hyperoxic (losartan: 3.6 ± 1.1, placebo: 4.0 ± 0.6 l/min/mmHg; P = 0.9) or hypoxic HCVR (losartan: 5.3 ± 1.4, placebo: 5.7 ± 0.68 l/min/mmHg; P = 1.0).","['14 men (age: 25 ± 2 years; BMI: 24.6 ± 1.1 kg/m 2 ; means ± SEM) ingested 3 doses of either', 'young healthy men', 'Men']","['losartan, an angiotensin-II type-I receptor (AT 1 R) antagonist', 'Angiotensin II-Type I Receptor Antagonism', 'hyperoxic (losartan', 'losartan', 'placebo and losartan', 'placebo']","['CSA severity', 'chemoreceptor reflex sensitivity', ""Cardiorespiratory responses to apnea and participants' apnea hypopnea indexes"", 'hypoxic and hyperoxic hypercapnic ventilatory response (HCVR) tests']","[{'cui': 'C0025266', 'cui_str': 'Man'}, {'cui': 'C0001779', 'cui_str': 'Age'}, {'cui': 'C0439234', 'cui_str': 'year'}, {'cui': 'C0005893', 'cui_str': 'Body mass index'}, {'cui': 'C4517491', 'cui_str': '1.1'}, {'cui': 'C0444504', 'cui_str': 'Mean'}, {'cui': 'C0262878', 'cui_str': 'Scanning electron microscope'}, {'cui': 'C0232478', 'cui_str': 'Ingestion'}, {'cui': 'C0332239', 'cui_str': 'Young'}]","[{'cui': 'C0126174', 'cui_str': 'Losartan'}, {'cui': 'C0003009', 'cui_str': 'angiotensin II'}, {'cui': 'C0441729', 'cui_str': 'Type 1'}, {'cui': 'C0034783', 'cui_str': 'Adrenergic receptor'}, {'cui': 'C0231491', 'cui_str': 'Antagonist muscle action'}, {'cui': 'C0032042', 'cui_str': 'Sham Treatment'}]","[{'cui': 'C0520680', 'cui_str': 'Apnea, Central Sleep'}, {'cui': 'C0439793', 'cui_str': 'Severities'}, {'cui': 'C0232041', 'cui_str': 'Chemoreceptor reflex'}, {'cui': 'C0020517', 'cui_str': 'Hypersensitivity reaction'}, {'cui': 'C0003578', 'cui_str': 'Apnea'}, {'cui': 'C2111846', 'cui_str': 'Apnea Hypopnea Index'}, {'cui': 'C0242184', 'cui_str': 'Hypoxia'}, {'cui': 'C0020440', 'cui_str': 'Hypercapnia'}, {'cui': 'C0003647', 'cui_str': 'Aptitude Tests'}]",,0.124751,"Prior to nocturnal hypoxia, losartan had no effect on either the hyperoxic (losartan: 3.6 ± 1.1, placebo: 4.0 ± 0.6 l/min/mmHg; P = 0.9) or hypoxic HCVR (losartan: 5.3 ± 1.4, placebo: 5.7 ± 0.68 l/min/mmHg; P = 1.0).","[{'ForeName': 'Courtney V', 'Initials': 'CV', 'LastName': 'Brown', 'Affiliation': 'Centre for Heart, Lung, and Vascular Health, School of Health and Exercise Science, University of British Columbia - Okanagan, Kelowna, BC, Canada.'}, {'ForeName': 'Lindsey M', 'Initials': 'LM', 'LastName': 'Boulet', 'Affiliation': 'Centre for Heart, Lung, and Vascular Health, School of Health and Exercise Science, University of British Columbia - Okanagan, Kelowna, BC, Canada.'}, {'ForeName': 'Tyler D', 'Initials': 'TD', 'LastName': 'Vermeulen', 'Affiliation': 'Centre for Heart, Lung, and Vascular Health, School of Health and Exercise Science, University of British Columbia - Okanagan, Kelowna, BC, Canada.'}, {'ForeName': 'Scott A', 'Initials': 'SA', 'LastName': 'Sands', 'Affiliation': ""Division of Sleep and Circadian Disorders, Brigham and Women's Hospital and Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA, United States.""}, {'ForeName': 'Richard J A', 'Initials': 'RJA', 'LastName': 'Wilson', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Physiology and Pharmacology, Hotchkiss Brain Institute, Cumming School of Medicine, University of Calgary, Calgary, AB, Canada.'}, {'ForeName': 'Najib T', 'Initials': 'NT', 'LastName': 'Ayas', 'Affiliation': 'Sleep Disorders Program, University of British Columbia, Vancouver, BC, Canada.'}, {'ForeName': 'John S', 'Initials': 'JS', 'LastName': 'Floras', 'Affiliation': 'University Health Network and Sinai Health System Division of Cardiology, Department of Medicine, University of Toronto, Toronto, ON, Canada.'}, {'ForeName': 'Glen E', 'Initials': 'GE', 'LastName': 'Foster', 'Affiliation': 'Centre for Heart, Lung, and Vascular Health, School of Health and Exercise Science, University of British Columbia - Okanagan, Kelowna, BC, Canada.'}]",Frontiers in neuroscience,['10.3389/fnins.2020.00382']
1175,31711041,The Effectiveness of the Mézières Method in Elite Rhythmic Gymnastics Athletes With Low Back Pain: A Randomized Controlled Trial.,"CONTEXT
One of the main reasons why athletes with a high physical condition suffer from low back pain disease is because they often participate in sports that involve disc compression movements during flexion, lifting loads, or torsion movement.
OBJECTIVES
This study aims to examine the effectiveness of the postural treatment of the Mézières method on elite rhythmic gymnastics athletes with low back pain.
DESIGN
Double-blind, randomized, controlled trial.
SETTING
The sports hall of ""Puente Tocinos,"" Murcia, Spain.
PARTICIPANTS
Ninety gymnastics athletes were randomized into 2 parallel groups (intervention: n = 39; control: n = 51), of whom 98.9% were women (women = 89; man = 1).
INTERVENTION
The Mézières method postural therapy was implemented. It lasted about 60 minutes in repeated sessions of 2 to 3 meetings per week by counting in overall 60 sessions during a 24-week period.
MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES
Visual analog scale of pain, sit and reach flexibility test, Runtastic (pedometer performance android application), Roland-Morris Questionnaire for the physical disability, and the Health Status Questionnaire were used.
RESULTS
The univariate analysis of variance and independent sample t test revealed a significant improvement in the intervention group concerning the visual analog scale pain assessment scale (P < .05, ηp2=.625), and, also, the between-groups effect size was high during the 24 sessions of treatment (d > 0.8) compared with the control one. The same situation persists even for Roland-Morris Questionnaire (P < .05, ηp2=.802), physical score (P < .05, ηp2=.613), mental score (P < .05, ηp2=.736), sit and reach flexibility test (P < .05, ηp2=.666), and Runtastic performance (P < .05, ηp2=.790), where the between-groups effect size was high during the 24 sessions of treatment (d > 0.8).

1176,31712967,The Efficacy of a Gambling Prevention Program Among High-School Students.,"Youth problem gambling has become an emergent public health issue, and adolescents constitute a vulnerable age group for the development of gambling-related problems. Although there is research concerning the risk factors of youth problem gambling, rigorous evaluations of the effectiveness of preventive initiatives is still rare. The present study evaluated the efficacy of an integrative intervention to prevent youth problem gambling based on a multidimensional set of factors including gambling-related knowledge, misconceptions, attitudes, gambling frequency, amount of money spent, total hours spent gambling per week, and sensation seeking. A pre- and post-test design was performed with 111 Portuguese high-school students randomly assigned to two groups (experimental and control). The findings demonstrated that the intervention was effective in improving correct knowledge about gambling, reducing misconceptions and attitudes, and in decreasing the total hours spent gambling per week. The intervention was also effective in reducing the number of at-risk/problem gamblers during the study period. Furthermore, these findings were stable after a 6-week follow-up. Overall, the intervention program appeared to be effective in correcting some gambling-related behaviours, and provides suggestions for future interventions.",2020,"The findings demonstrated that the intervention was effective in improving correct knowledge about gambling, reducing misconceptions and attitudes, and in decreasing the total hours spent gambling per week.","['High-School Students', '111 Portuguese high-school students']","['Gambling Prevention Program', 'integrative intervention']","['number of at-risk/problem gamblers', 'correct knowledge about gambling, reducing misconceptions and attitudes']","[{'cui': 'C0205250', 'cui_str': 'High (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0036375', 'cui_str': 'School'}, {'cui': 'C0038492', 'cui_str': 'Student (occupation)'}, {'cui': 'C4517538', 'cui_str': '111 (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0032730', 'cui_str': 'Portuguese (ethnic group)'}]","[{'cui': 'C0016995', 'cui_str': 'Gamblings'}, {'cui': 'C0199176', 'cui_str': 'Prophylaxis - procedure intent (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C2728259', 'cui_str': 'Program'}]","[{'cui': 'C0237753', 'cui_str': 'Number (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C1444641', 'cui_str': 'At risk'}, {'cui': 'C0033213', 'cui_str': 'Problem (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C0858352', 'cui_str': 'Gambler'}, {'cui': 'C0205202', 'cui_str': 'Remediated'}, {'cui': 'C0376554', 'cui_str': 'Knowledge'}, {'cui': 'C0016995', 'cui_str': 'Gamblings'}, {'cui': 'C0392756', 'cui_str': 'Reduced (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0004271', 'cui_str': 'Attitude'}]",,0.018052,"The findings demonstrated that the intervention was effective in improving correct knowledge about gambling, reducing misconceptions and attitudes, and in decreasing the total hours spent gambling per week.","[{'ForeName': 'Filipa', 'Initials': 'F', 'LastName': 'Calado', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Psychology, Nottingham Trent University, 50 Shakespeare Street, Nottingham, NG1 4FQ, UK. filipa.calado2013@my.ntu.ac.uk.'}, {'ForeName': 'Joana', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Alexandre', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Psychology, ISCTE - CIS/IUL - Lisbon University Institute, Avenida das Forças Armadas, 1649-026, Lisbon, Portugal.'}, {'ForeName': 'Liah', 'Initials': 'L', 'LastName': 'Rosenfeld', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Psychology, ISCTE - CIS/IUL - Lisbon University Institute, Avenida das Forças Armadas, 1649-026, Lisbon, Portugal.'}, {'ForeName': 'Rafaela', 'Initials': 'R', 'LastName': 'Pereira', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Psychology, ISCTE - CIS/IUL - Lisbon University Institute, Avenida das Forças Armadas, 1649-026, Lisbon, Portugal.'}, {'ForeName': 'Mark D', 'Initials': 'MD', 'LastName': 'Griffiths', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Psychology, Nottingham Trent University, 50 Shakespeare Street, Nottingham, NG1 4FQ, UK.'}]",Journal of gambling studies,['10.1007/s10899-019-09908-2']
1177,30852136,"Reduced-dose combination chemotherapy (S-1 plus oxaliplatin) versus full-dose monotherapy (S-1) in older vulnerable patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (NORDIC9): a randomised, open-label phase 2 trial.","BACKGROUND
Older or vulnerable patients with metastatic colorectal cancer are seldom included in randomised trials. The multicentre NORDIC9 trial evaluated reduced-dose combination chemotherapy compared with full-dose monotherapy in older, vulnerable patients.
METHODS
This randomised, open-label phase 2 trial was done in 23 Nordic oncology clinics and included patients aged 70 years or older with previously untreated metastatic colorectal cancer who were not candidates for full-dose combination chemotherapy. Patients were block randomised (1:1) using a web-based tool to full-dose S-1 (30 mg/m 2 orally twice daily on days 1-14 every 3 weeks) followed by second-line treatment at progression with irinotecan (250 mg/m 2 intravenously on day 1 every 3 weeks or 180 mg/m 2 intravenously on day 1 every 2 weeks) or reduced-dose combination chemotherapy with S-1 (20 mg/m 2 orally twice daily on days 1-14) and oxaliplatin (100 mg/m 2 intravenously on day 1 every 3 weeks) followed by second-line treatment at progression with S-1 (20 mg/m 2 orally twice daily on days 1-14) and irinotecan (180 mg/m 2 intravenously on day 1 every 3 weeks). Use of bevacizumab (7·5 mg/kg intravenously on day 1 of each cycle) was optional. Treatment allocation was not masked and randomisation was stratified for institution and bevacizumab. The primary outcome was progression-free survival. Survival analyses were by intention to treat and safety analyses were done on the treated population. This trial is registered with EudraCT, number 2014-000394-39, and is closed to new participants.
FINDINGS
From March 9, 2015, to Oct 11, 2017, 160 patients with a median age of 78 years (IQR 76-81) were randomly assigned to full-dose monotherapy (n=83) or reduced-dose combination chemotherapy (n=77). At data cutoff (Sept 1, 2018; median follow-up 23·8 months [IQR 18·8-30·9]), 81 (98%) patients in the full-dose monotherapy group and 71 (92%) patients in the reduced-dose combination group had progressed or died. Median progression-free survival was significantly longer with reduced-dose combination chemotherapy (6·2 months [95% CI 5·3-8·3]) than with full-dose monotherapy (5·3 months [4·1-6·8]; hazard ratio [HR] 0·72 [95% CI 0·52-0·99]; p=0·047). Toxicity was evaluated in 157 patients who received treatment. Significantly more patients in the full-dose monotherapy group (51 [62%] of 82 patients) experienced at least one grade 3-4 adverse event than in the reduced-dose combination group (32 [43%] of 75 patients; p=0·014). Grade 3-4 diarrhoea (12 [15%] vs two [3%]; p=0·018), fatigue (ten [12%] vs three [4%]; p=0·083), and dehydration (five [6%] vs none; p=0·060) were more frequent in the full-dose monotherapy group than in the reduced-dose combination group. Treatment-related deaths occurred in three patients during first-line treatment and three patients during second-line treatment (two in the full-dose monotherapy group vs one in the reduced-dose combination group in both cases).
INTERPRETATION
Reduced-dose combination chemotherapy with S-1 and oxaliplatin for older, vulnerable patients with metastatic colorectal cancer was more effective and resulted in less toxicity than full-dose monotherapy with S-1. Reduced-dose combination chemotherapy could be a preferred treatment for this population.

1178,32410952,Cerebellar Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation and Noisy Galvanic Vestibular Stimulation Change Vestibulospinal Function.,"Background
The cerebellum strongly contributes to vestibulospinal function, and the modulation of vestibulospinal function is important for rehabilitation. As transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) and electrical stimulation may induce functional changes in neural systems, we investigated whether cerebellar repetitive TMS (crTMS) and noisy galvanic vestibular stimulation (nGVS) could modulate vestibulospinal response excitability. We also sought to determine whether crTMS could influence the effect of nGVS.
Methods
Fifty-nine healthy adults were recruited; 28 were randomly allocated to a real-crTMS group and 31 to a sham-crTMS group. The crTMS was conducted using 900 pulses at 1 Hz, while the participants were in a static position. After the crTMS, each participant was allocated to either a real-nGVS group or sham-nGVS group, and nGVS was delivered (15 min., 1 mA; 0.1-640 Hz) while patients were in a static position. The H-reflex ratio (with/without bilateral bipolar square wave pulse GVS), which reflects vestibulospinal excitability, was measured at pre-crTMS, post-crTMS, and post-nGVS.
Results
We found that crTMS alone and nGVS alone have no effect on H-reflex ratio but that the effect of nGVS was obtained after crTMS.
Conclusion
crTMS and nGVS appear to act as neuromodulators of vestibulospinal function.",2020,"After the crTMS, each participant was allocated to either a real-nGVS group or sham-nGVS group, and nGVS was delivered (15 min.",['Methods\n\n\nFifty-nine healthy adults were recruited; 28'],"['Cerebellar Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation and Noisy Galvanic Vestibular Stimulation Change Vestibulospinal Function', 'real-crTMS group and 31 to a sham-crTMS', 'real-nGVS group or sham-nGVS group, and nGVS', 'cerebellar repetitive TMS (crTMS) and noisy galvanic vestibular stimulation (nGVS', 'transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) and electrical stimulation']",['H-reflex ratio'],"[{'cui': 'C0025663', 'cui_str': 'Method'}, {'cui': 'C3830128', 'cui_str': '59'}, {'cui': 'C0686750', 'cui_str': 'Well adult'}]","[{'cui': 'C0007765', 'cui_str': 'Cerebellar structure'}, {'cui': 'C0872259', 'cui_str': 'Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation, Repetitive'}, {'cui': 'C1292856', 'cui_str': 'Stimulation'}, {'cui': 'C0037400', 'cui_str': 'Social Change'}, {'cui': 'C0031843', 'cui_str': 'PH'}, {'cui': 'C0436548', 'cui_str': 'Transcranial magnetic stimulation'}, {'cui': 'C0439745', 'cui_str': 'Grouped'}, {'cui': 'C0073980', 'cui_str': 'salicylhydroxamic acid'}, {'cui': 'C0013786', 'cui_str': 'Stimulation, Electric'}]","[{'cui': 'C0018447', 'cui_str': 'H-reflex'}, {'cui': 'C0456603', 'cui_str': 'Ratio'}]",59.0,0.112908,"After the crTMS, each participant was allocated to either a real-nGVS group or sham-nGVS group, and nGVS was delivered (15 min.","[{'ForeName': 'Akiyoshi', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Matsugi', 'Affiliation': 'Faculty of Rehabilitation, Shijonawate Gakuen University, Daito, Japan.'}, {'ForeName': 'Shinya', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Douchi', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Rehabilitation, National Hospital Organization Kyoto Medical Center, Kyoto, Japan.'}, {'ForeName': 'Rikiya', 'Initials': 'R', 'LastName': 'Hasada', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Rehabilitation, Nagahara Hospital, Higasiosaka, Japan.'}, {'ForeName': 'Nobuhiko', 'Initials': 'N', 'LastName': 'Mori', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Neuromodulation and Neurosurgery, Graduate School of Medicine, Osaka University, Osaka, Japan.'}, {'ForeName': 'Yohei', 'Initials': 'Y', 'LastName': 'Okada', 'Affiliation': 'Faculty of Health Sciences, Kio University, Koryo, Japan.'}, {'ForeName': 'Naoki', 'Initials': 'N', 'LastName': 'Yoshida', 'Affiliation': 'Institute of Rehabilitation Science, Tokuyukai Medical Corporation, Toyonaka, Japan.'}, {'ForeName': 'Satoru', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Nishishita', 'Affiliation': 'Institute of Rehabilitation Science, Tokuyukai Medical Corporation, Toyonaka, Japan.'}, {'ForeName': 'Koichi', 'Initials': 'K', 'LastName': 'Hosomi', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Neuromodulation and Neurosurgery, Graduate School of Medicine, Osaka University, Osaka, Japan.'}, {'ForeName': 'Youichi', 'Initials': 'Y', 'LastName': 'Saitoh', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Neuromodulation and Neurosurgery, Graduate School of Medicine, Osaka University, Osaka, Japan.'}]",Frontiers in neuroscience,['10.3389/fnins.2020.00388']
1179,30444479,Transanal repair of rectocele with high frequency radio scalpel.,"AIM
This is a prospective randomized study to analyze results obtained in two groups of patients, affected by stage 2 rectocele and treated with rectum anterior wall repair and strength, performed with standard or modified Khubchandani technique, using High Frequency (HF) Radio Scalpel.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
A cohort of 24 patients with stage 2 rectocele (Mellgren's classification) have been included. Twelve (group A) underwent surgery with standard technique and twelve (group B) underwent surgery using the HF Radio Scalpel, which cuts and coagulates tissues without damage thanks to its low working temperature (45-70°C). Each patient underwent proctolo-gical examination and anoscopy in 7th, 15th, 45th POD and after 6 and 12 months.
RESULTS
During post-operative follow-up 5 patients from group A and 1 from group B didn't show up so that they drop out the study. As a result, group A is composed by 7 patients and group B by 11 patients. Mean operating time was significantly favourable in group B (51 vs 33 minutes, p< 0.01). The differences between other parameters weren't statistically significant, even if post-operative course was less difficult in HF Radio Scalpel group.
CONCLUSIONS
The surgical technique to repair and reinforce anterior rectal wall is easier and faster if performed with HF Radio Scalpel respect to the standard procedure described by Khubchandani. Post-operative course was less painful and, even more importantly considering the patient age, surgical time was shorter. Therefore, the results obtained cast positive light on using this technique to treat uncomplicated grade 2 rectocele.",2018,"Mean operating time was significantly favourable in group B (51 vs 33 minutes, p< 0.01).","[""24 patients with stage 2 rectocele (Mellgren's classification"", 'two groups of patients, affected by stage 2 rectocele and treated with']","['HF Radio Scalpel', 'Transanal repair of rectocele with high frequency radio scalpel', 'rectum anterior wall repair and strength, performed with standard or modified Khubchandani technique, using High Frequency (HF) Radio Scalpel', 'surgery with standard technique and twelve (group B) underwent surgery using the HF Radio Scalpel, which cuts and coagulates tissues without damage thanks to its low working temperature']",['Mean operating time'],"[{'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C0441767', 'cui_str': 'Stage level 2 (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0149771', 'cui_str': 'Proctocele'}, {'cui': 'C0008903', 'cui_str': 'taxonomy'}, {'cui': 'C0439745', 'cui_str': 'Grouped (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0392760', 'cui_str': 'Affecting (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0332293', 'cui_str': 'Treated with (attribute)'}]","[{'cui': 'C0034546', 'cui_str': 'Radio'}, {'cui': 'C0392220', 'cui_str': 'Surgical knife, device (physical object)'}, {'cui': 'C0589371', 'cui_str': 'Transanal approach (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0677487', 'cui_str': 'Repair of rectocele (procedure)'}, {'cui': 'C0205212', 'cui_str': 'High frequency (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0034896', 'cui_str': 'Rectum'}, {'cui': 'C0442070', 'cui_str': 'Anterior wall (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0374711', 'cui_str': 'Surgical repair (procedure)'}, {'cui': 'C0884358', 'cui_str': 'Performed'}, {'cui': 'C0038137', 'cui_str': 'standards'}, {'cui': 'C0392747', 'cui_str': 'Altered (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0025664', 'cui_str': 'techniques'}, {'cui': 'C1274039', 'cui_str': 'Surgery'}, {'cui': 'C0441836', 'cui_str': 'Group B (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0000925', 'cui_str': 'Incised wound - morphology (morphologic abnormality)'}, {'cui': 'C0040300', 'cui_str': 'Tissues'}, {'cui': 'C0010957', 'cui_str': 'Damage (morphologic abnormality)'}, {'cui': 'C0039476', 'cui_str': 'Temperature'}]","[{'cui': 'C0444504', 'cui_str': 'Mean (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C1632851', 'cui_str': 'Times'}]",24.0,0.0266572,"Mean operating time was significantly favourable in group B (51 vs 33 minutes, p< 0.01).","[{'ForeName': 'D', 'Initials': 'D', 'LastName': 'Sforza', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'C', 'Initials': 'C', 'LastName': 'Belardi', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'M', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Pellicciaro', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'V', 'Initials': 'V', 'LastName': 'Filingeri', 'Affiliation': ''}]",Il Giornale di chirurgia,[]
1180,31704549,Health-related quality of life in patients with fully resected BRAF V600 mutation-positive melanoma receiving adjuvant vemurafenib.,"AIM OF STUDY
The aim of the study was to assess the impact of treatment with adjuvant vemurafenib monotherapy on health-related quality of life (HRQOL) in patients with resected stage IIC-IIIC melanoma.
METHODS
The phase 3 BRIM8 study (NCT01667419) randomised patients with BRAF V600 mutation-positive resected stage IIC-IIIC melanoma to 960 mg of vemurafenib twice daily or matching placebo for 52 weeks (13 × 28-day cycles). Patients completed the European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire Core 30 (EORTC QLQ-C30) version 3 at baseline, cycle 1 (days 1, 15 and 22), cycle 2 (days 1 and 15), day 1 of every subsequent 4-week cycle, the end-of-treatment visit and each visit during the follow-up period.
RESULTS
Completion rates for the EORTC QLQ-C30 questionnaire were high (>80%). There was a mean decline in the global health status (GHS)/quality of life (QOL) score of 17.4 (±22.9) and 17.3 (±24.1) points at days 15 and 22 of cycle 1, respectively, among vemurafenib-treated patients who recovered to approximately 10 points below baseline for the remainder of the treatment period. A similar trend was observed in all functional scales except for cognitive function (<10-point change from baseline at all visits) and in the symptom scores for appetite loss, fatigue and pain. As observed for the GHS/QOL score, all scores rapidly returned to baseline after completion of planned vemurafenib treatment or treatment discontinuation.
CONCLUSIONS
The schedule of HRQOL assessments allowed for an accurate and complete evaluation of the impact of acute treatment-related symptoms. Vemurafenib-treated patients experience clinically meaningful moderate worsening in some treatment- or disease-related symptoms and GHS/QOL that resolve over time.",2019,"A similar trend was observed in all functional scales except for cognitive function (<10-point change from baseline at all visits) and in the symptom scores for appetite loss, fatigue and pain.","['patients with resected stage IIC-IIIC melanoma', 'patients with BRAF V600 mutation-positive resected stage IIC-IIIC melanoma to 960\xa0mg of', 'patients with fully resected BRAF V600 mutation-positive melanoma receiving adjuvant']","['adjuvant vemurafenib monotherapy', 'vemurafenib', 'Vemurafenib', 'vemurafenib twice daily or matching placebo']","['appetite loss, fatigue and pain', 'Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire Core 30 (EORTC QLQ-C30) version', 'cognitive function', 'global health status (GHS)/quality of life (QOL) score', 'GHS/QOL score', 'health-related quality of life (HRQOL', 'EORTC QLQ-C30 questionnaire', 'Health-related quality of life']","[{'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C0457161', 'cui_str': 'Stage IIc'}, {'cui': 'C0025202', 'cui_str': 'Malignant Melanoma'}, {'cui': 'C0026882', 'cui_str': 'Mutation'}, {'cui': 'C1446409', 'cui_str': 'Positive (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C4517908', 'cui_str': '960 (qualifier value)'}]","[{'cui': 'C3192263', 'cui_str': 'Vemurafenib'}, {'cui': 'C0585361', 'cui_str': 'Twice a day (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0336766', 'cui_str': 'Matches'}, {'cui': 'C1696465', 'cui_str': 'placebo'}]","[{'cui': 'C0003618', 'cui_str': 'Appetite'}, {'cui': 'C0015672', 'cui_str': 'Fatigue'}, {'cui': 'C0030193', 'cui_str': 'Pain'}, {'cui': 'C1306459', 'cui_str': 'Primary malignant neoplasm'}, {'cui': 'C0034380'}, {'cui': 'C0034394', 'cui_str': 'Questionnaires'}, {'cui': 'C0444669', 'cui_str': 'Core (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C2607870', 'cui_str': 'Version (morphologic abnormality)'}, {'cui': 'C0392335', 'cui_str': 'Cognitive functions (observable entity)'}, {'cui': 'C1456573', 'cui_str': 'Global Health'}, {'cui': 'C0449438', 'cui_str': 'Status (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0376558', 'cui_str': 'Life'}, {'cui': 'C0449820', 'cui_str': 'Scores (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0018684', 'cui_str': 'Health'}, {'cui': 'C0445223', 'cui_str': 'Related (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C4279947', 'cui_str': 'HRQOL'}]",,0.376995,"A similar trend was observed in all functional scales except for cognitive function (<10-point change from baseline at all visits) and in the symptom scores for appetite loss, fatigue and pain.","[{'ForeName': 'Dirk', 'Initials': 'D', 'LastName': 'Schadendorf', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Dermatology, University Hospital Essen, Hufelandstr. 55, 45122, Essen, Germany; The German Cancer Consortium, Heidelberg, Germany.

1181,32407148,DIABEO System Combining a Mobile App Software with and without Telemonitoring versus Standard Care: A Randomized Controlled Trial in Diabetic Patients Poorly Controlled with a Basal-Bolus Insulin Regimen.,"BACKGROUND
The DIABEO system (DS) is a telemedicine solution that combines a mobile app for patients with a web portal for health care providers. DS allows real-time monitoring of basal-bolus insulin therapy as well as therapeutic decision making integrating both basal and bolus dose calculation. Real-life studies have shown a very low rate of use of mobile health applications by patients. Therefore, we conducted a large randomized controlled trial study to investigate the efficacy of DS in conditions close to real-life (TELESAGE study).
METHODS
TELESAGE was a multicenter, randomized, open study with three parallel arms: arm 1 (standard care), arm 2 (DIABEO® alone) and arm 3 (DIABEO® + telemonitoring by trained nurses). The primary outcome assessed the reduction in HbA1c levels after a 12-month follow-up.
RESULTS
Six hundred sixty-five (665) patients were included in the study. Participants who used DIABEO® once or more times a day (DIABEO® users) showed a significant and meaningful reduction of HbA1c versus standard care after 12-months follow up: mean difference -0.41% for arm 2 - arm 1 (P=0.001) and -0.51% for arm 3 - arm 1 (P≤0.001). DIABEO® users included 25.1% of participants in arm 2 and 37.6% in arm 3. In the intention-to-treat population, HbA1c changes and incidence of hypoglycemia were comparable between arms.
CONCLUSIONS

1182,32407239,Effects of histamine-receptor antagonism on leg blood flow during exercise.,"Histamine mediates vasodilation during inflammatory and immune responses as well as following endurance exercise. During exercise, intramuscular histamine concentration increases and its production appears related to exercise intensity and duration. However, whether histamine contributes to exercise hyperemia and promotes exercise blood flow in an intensity or duration dependent pattern is unknown. The purpose of this study was to compare leg blood flow across a range of exercise intensities, before and after prolonged exercise, with and without histamine-receptor antagonism. It was hypothesized that combined oral histamine H 1 /H 2 -receptor antagonism would decrease leg blood flow and the effect would be greater at higher intensities and following prolonged exercise. Sixteen (7F, 9M) volunteers performed single-leg knee-extension exercise after consuming either Placebo or combined histamine H 1 /H 2 -receptor antagonists (Blockade). Exercise consisted of two graded protocols at 20, 40, 60, and 80% of peak power, separated by 60 min of knee-extension exercise at 60% of peak power. Femoral artery blood flow was measured by ultrasonography. Femoral artery blood flow increased with exercise intensity up to 2660±97 ml·min -1 at 80% of peak power during Placebo (P<0.05). Blood flow was further elevated with Blockade to 2836±124 ml·min -1 (P<0.05) at 80% peak power (9.1 ± 4.8% higher than Placebo). These patterns were not affected by prolonged exercise (P=0.13). On average, femoral blood flow during prolonged exercise was 12.7± 2.8% higher with Blockade versus Placebo (P<0.05). Contrary to the hypothesis, these results suggest that histamine-receptor antagonism during exercise, regardless of intensity or duration, increases leg blood flow measured by ultrasonography.",2020,Blood flow was further elevated with Blockade to 2836±124 ml·min -1 (P<0.05) at 80% peak power (9.1 ± 4.8% higher than Placebo).,[],"['Placebo', 'single-leg knee-extension exercise after consuming either Placebo or combined histamine H 1 /H 2 -receptor antagonists (Blockade', 'histamine-receptor antagonism', 'histamine', 'Histamine']","['leg blood flow', 'Blood flow', 'Femoral artery blood flow', 'femoral blood flow']",[],"[{'cui': 'C0032042', 'cui_str': 'Sham Treatment'}, {'cui': 'C0037179', 'cui_str': 'Single person'}, {'cui': 'C0023216', 'cui_str': 'Lower limb structure'}, {'cui': 'C0022742', 'cui_str': 'Bone structure of knee'}, {'cui': 'C0231448', 'cui_str': 'Extension'}, {'cui': 'C0015259', 'cui_str': 'Exercise'}, {'cui': 'C0205195', 'cui_str': 'Combined'}, {'cui': 'C0019588', 'cui_str': 'Histamine'}, {'cui': 'C0700308', 'cui_str': 'Protium'}, {'cui': 'C4543207', 'cui_str': 'Receptor antagonist'}, {'cui': 'C0332206', 'cui_str': 'Blocking'}, {'cui': 'C0034813', 'cui_str': 'Histamine receptor'}]","[{'cui': 'C0023216', 'cui_str': 'Lower limb structure'}, {'cui': 'C0232338', 'cui_str': 'Vascular flow'}, {'cui': 'C0015801', 'cui_str': 'Structure of femoral artery'}, {'cui': 'C0015811', 'cui_str': 'Bone structure of femur'}]",,0.0688832,Blood flow was further elevated with Blockade to 2836±124 ml·min -1 (P<0.05) at 80% peak power (9.1 ± 4.8% higher than Placebo).,"[{'ForeName': 'Matthew R', 'Initials': 'MR', 'LastName': 'Ely', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Human Physiology, University of Oregon, United States.'}, {'ForeName': 'Stephen M', 'Initials': 'SM', 'LastName': 'Ratchford', 'Affiliation': 'University of Utah, United States.'}, {'ForeName': 'D Taylor', 'Initials': 'DT', 'LastName': 'La Salle', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Nutrition and Integrative Physiology, University of Utah, United States.'}, {'ForeName': 'Joel D', 'Initials': 'JD', 'LastName': 'Trinity', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Internal Medicine, Division of Geriatrics, University of Utah, United States.'}, {'ForeName': 'D Walter', 'Initials': 'DW', 'LastName': 'Wray', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Internal Medicine, Division of Geriatrics, University of Utah, United States.'}, {'ForeName': 'John R', 'Initials': 'JR', 'LastName': 'Halliwill', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Human Physiology, University of Oregon, United States.'}]","Journal of applied physiology (Bethesda, Md. : 1985)",['10.1152/japplphysiol.00689.2019']

1184,32407216,Randomized Phase III Study of Pemetrexed Plus Cisplatin Versus Vinorelbine Plus Cisplatin for Completely Resected Stage II to IIIA Nonsquamous Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer.,"PURPOSE
To evaluate the efficacy of pemetrexed plus cisplatin versus vinorelbine plus cisplatin as postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy in patients with pathologic stage II-IIIA nonsquamous non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
PATIENTS AND METHODS
We performed a randomized, open-label, phase III study at 50 institutions within 7 clinical study groups in Japan. Patients with completely resected pathologic stage II-IIIA (TNM 7th edition) nonsquamous NSCLC were randomly assigned to receive either pemetrexed (500 mg/m 2 , day 1) plus cisplatin (75 mg/m 2 , day 1) or vinorelbine (25 mg/m 2 , days 1 and 8) plus cisplatin (80 mg/m 2 , day 1) with stratification by sex, age, pathologic stage, EGFR mutation, and institution. These treatments were planned to be given every 3 weeks for 4 cycles. The primary end point was recurrence-free survival in the modified intent-to-treat population, excluding ineligible patients.
RESULT
Between March 2012 and August 2016, 804 patients were enrolled (402 assigned to vinorelbine plus cisplatin and 402 assigned to pemetrexed plus cisplatin). Of 784 eligible patients, 410 (52%) had stage IIIA disease and 192 (24%) had EGFR -sensitive mutations. At a median follow-up of 45.2 months, median recurrence-free survival was 37.3 months for vinorelbine plus cisplatin and 38.9 months for pemetrexed plus cisplatin, with a hazard ratio of 0.98 (95% CI, 0.81 to 1.20; 1-sided P = .474). Grade 3-4 toxicities reported more frequently for vinorelbine plus cisplatin than for pemetrexed plus cisplatin were febrile neutropenia (11.6% v 0.3%, respectively), neutropenia (81.1% v 22.7%, respectively), and anemia (9.3% v 2.8%, respectively). One treatment-related death occurred in each arm.

1185,30932951,Renal safety of tenofovir alafenamide vs. tenofovir disoproxil fumarate: a pooled analysis of 26 clinical trials.,"OBJECTIVE
Compared with tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF), tenofovir alafenamide (TAF) has been associated with improvement in markers of renal dysfunction in individual randomized trials; however, the comparative incidence of clinically significant renal events remains unclear.
DESIGN
We used a pooled data approach to increase the person-years of drug exposure analysed, maximizing our ability to detect differences in clinically significant outcomes.
METHODS
We pooled clinical renal safety data across 26 treatment-naive and antiretroviral switch studies to compare the incidence of proximal renal tubulopathy and discontinuation due to renal adverse events between participants taking TAF-containing regimens vs. those taking TDF-containing regimens. We performed secondary analyses from seven large randomized studies (two treatment-naive and five switch studies) to compare incidence of renal adverse events, treatment-emergent proteinuria, changes in serum creatinine, creatinine clearance, and urinary biomarkers (albumin, beta-2-microglobulin, and retinol binding protein-to-creatinine ratios).
RESULTS
Our integrated analysis included 9322 adults and children with HIV (n = 6360 TAF, n = 2962 TDF) with exposure of 12 519 person-years to TAF and 5947 to TDF. There were no cases of proximal renal tubulopathy in participants receiving TAF vs. 10 cases in those receiving TDF (P < 0.001), and fewer individuals on TAF (3/6360) vs. TDF (14/2962) (P < 0.001) discontinued due to a renal adverse event. Participants initiating TAF-based vs. TDF-based regimens had more favourable changes in renal biomarkers through 96 weeks of therapy.
CONCLUSION
These pooled data from 26 studies, with over 12 500 person-years of follow-up in children and adults, support the comparative renal safety of TAF over TDF.",2019,"Participants initiating TAF-based vs. TDF-based regimens had more favourable changes in renal biomarkers through 96 weeks of therapy.

1186,30926276,"A prospective, single-blind, randomized, phase III study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Fibrin Sealant Grifols as an adjunct to hemostasis compared with manual compression in vascular surgery.","OBJECTIVE
New formulations and applications of hemostatic adjuncts such as fibrin sealant (FS) to support local hemostasis and sutures continue to be developed. In a pivotal, confirmatory, controlled, prospective, single-blinded, randomized, multicenter phase III clinical trial, the efficacy and safety of FS Grifols during vascular surgeries were evaluated.
METHODS
Patients undergoing a nonemergency, open, peripheral vascular surgical procedure with moderate arterial bleeding were recruited. In an initial preliminary part of the study, all patients were treated with FS Grifols. In a subsequent primary part, patients were randomized (2:1) to FS Grifols or manual compression (MC). The primary efficacy end point was the proportion of the primary part patients achieving hemostasis by 4 minutes after the start of treatment. Cumulative proportion and time to hemostasis were secondary efficacy end points. Safety end points (in pooled preliminary and primary parts) included adverse events (AEs), vital signs, physical assessments, clinical laboratory tests, viral markers, and immunogenicity.
RESULTS
The primary efficacy end point was met by 76.1% of patients (83/109) for the FS Grifols group versus 22.8% of patients (13/57) for the MC group (P < .001). The cumulative proportion of patients at 5, 7, and 10 minutes was 80.7%, 84.4%, and 88.1%, respectively, in the FS Grifols treatment group, and 28.1%, 35.1%, and 45.6% in the MC treatment group (P < .001). The median time to hemostasis was shorter in the FS Grifols group (4 minutes vs ≥10 minutes in the MC group; P < .001). The nature of AEs reported were those expected in the study patient profile. The percentage of patients experiencing treatment-emergent AEs were similar in both the FS Grifols (pooled n = 59 + 109) and MC groups (81.0% and 77.2%, respectively), most recurrent being procedural pain (34.5% and 36.8%, respectively) and pyrexia (11.3% and 10.5%, respectively).

1187,30922873,Long-term efficacy and safety of obeticholic acid for patients with primary biliary cholangitis: 3-year results of an international open-label extension study.,"BACKGROUND
The aim of this study was to evaluate the long-term efficacy and safety of obeticholic acid for patients with primary biliary cholangitis using 3-year interim data from the 5-year open-label extension of the pivotal phase 3 POISE trial.
METHODS
In the double-blind phase of POISE, 217 patients with primary biliary cholangitis with inadequate response to or intolerance to ursodeoxycholic acid were randomised to receive placebo, obeticholic acid 5 to 10 mg, or obeticholic acid 10 mg once daily for 12 months. During the open-label extension phase, patients received variable, adjusted doses of obeticholic acid. Markers of cholestasis and liver injury, alkaline phosphatase (ALP), and total and direct bilirubin were evaluated, and safety was assessed for up to 48 months of treatment with obeticholic acid. All analyses in the open-label extension were done in the safety population, defined as any patient randomised in the double-blind phase who received at least one dose of obeticholic acid during the open-label extension. This trial is registered at ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT01473524) and with EudraCT (2011-004728-36).
FINDINGS
193 patients were treated during the open-label extension. In this 3-year interim analysis, ALP concentrations were significantly reduced compared with baseline at 12 months (mean change -105·2 U/L [SD 87·6]), 24 months (-101·0 U/L [98·5]), 36 months (-108·6 U/L [95·7]), and 48 months (-95·6 U/L [121·1]; p<0·0001 for all yearly time points). Total bilirubin concentrations were stabilised, with significant reductions versus baseline at 12 months (mean change -0·9 μmol/L [SD 4·1]; p=0·0042) and 48 months (-0·8 μmol/L [3·8]; p=0·016). Stabilisation was also noted for direct bilirubin, with a significant change from baseline at 12 months (mean change -0·5 μmol/L [SD 3·0]; p=0·021). However, changes in total and direct bilirubin were not significant at other time points. Obeticholic acid was generally well tolerated, with pruritus (149 [77%] patients) and fatigue (63 [33%]) being the most common adverse events. No serious adverse events were considered related to obeticholic acid.
INTERPRETATION
Interim analyses suggest long-term efficacy and safety of obeticholic acid in patients with primary biliary cholangitis who are intolerant to or inadequately responsive to ursodeoxycholic acid.

1188,30844795,Effects of L-Menthol and Carbon Dioxide on the Adenoma Detection Rate during Colonoscopy: L-Menthol and Carbon Dioxide on Colonoscopy.,"BACKGROUND AND AIMS
We examined the efficacy of the combined use of L-menthol spraying (L-mentholS) as an antispasmodic agent and carbon dioxide insufflation (CO2I) on the adenoma detection rate (ADR) in a prospective, single-center trial with a 2 × 2 factorial design.
METHODS
We randomly assigned 611 patients scheduled to undergo colonoscopy to 4 groups: (1) the L-mentholS + CO2I (n = 153), (2) L-mentholS + air insufflation (AI; n = 156), (3) CO2I (n = 153), and (4) AI (n = 149) groups. We used 20 mL of 0.8%-L-menthol solution for the L-mentholS. The primary outcome was the difference in the ADR, and the secondary outcomes were the differences in colonic peristalsis and abdominal pain. -Results: The ADRs were not different among the groups: 1/2/3/4; 39.9%/43.6%/41.2%/51.0%. CO2I was associated with a significant decrease in the ADR (OR 0.57; 95% CI 0.35- 0.93) with a multiple logistic regression. The interaction between L-mentholS and CO2I was associated with a suppression of the decrease in the ADR. Both L-mentholS and CO2I were associated with a significant decrease in abdominal pain, and L-mentholS was associated with a significant improvement of peristalsis.
CONCLUSIONS
The fact that CO2I was associated with significant decreases in the ADR was a problem. The combined use of L-mentholS and CO2I could help to suppress the decrease in the ADR.",2020,CO2I was associated with a significant decrease in the ADR (OR 0.57; 95% CI 0.35- 0.93) with a multiple logistic regression.,"['611 patients scheduled to', 'Results']","['0.8%-L-menthol solution for the L-mentholS', 'L-mentholS + air insufflation', 'carbon dioxide insufflation (CO2I', 'L-Menthol and Carbon Dioxide', 'L-menthol spraying (L-mentholS', 'Colonoscopy: L-Menthol and Carbon Dioxide', 'undergo colonoscopy to 4 groups: (1) the L-mentholS + CO2I']","['Adenoma Detection Rate', 'colonic peristalsis and abdominal pain', 'ADR', 'adenoma detection rate (ADR', 'CO2I', 'abdominal pain, and L-mentholS']","[{'cui': 'C0030703', 'cui_str': 'Schedules, Patient'}, {'cui': 'C1274040', 'cui_str': 'Result'}]","[{'cui': 'C4517481', 'cui_str': '0.8'}, {'cui': 'C0771655', 'cui_str': 'LEVOMENTHOL'}, {'cui': 'C0037633', 'cui_str': 'Solutions'}, {'cui': 'C0001861', 'cui_str': 'Air'}, {'cui': 'C0021634', 'cui_str': 'Insufflation'}, {'cui': 'C0007012', 'cui_str': 'Carbon Dioxide'}, {'cui': 'C4521772', 'cui_str': 'Spray'}, {'cui': 'C0009378', 'cui_str': 'Endoscopy of colon'}, {'cui': 'C0439745', 'cui_str': 'Grouped (qualifier value)'}]","[{'cui': 'C0001430', 'cui_str': 'Adenoma'}, {'cui': 'C0009368', 'cui_str': 'Colon'}, {'cui': 'C0031133', 'cui_str': 'Peristalsis'}, {'cui': 'C0000737', 'cui_str': 'Abdominal Pain'}, {'cui': 'C0449207', 'cui_str': 'ADR (body structure)'}, {'cui': 'C0771655', 'cui_str': 'LEVOMENTHOL'}]",611.0,0.054965,CO2I was associated with a significant decrease in the ADR (OR 0.57; 95% CI 0.35- 0.93) with a multiple logistic regression.,"[{'ForeName': 'Ken', 'Initials': 'K', 'LastName': 'Inoue', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Molecular Gastroenterology and Hepatology, Kyoto Prefectural University of Medicine, Kyoto, Japan, keninoue71@koto.kpu-m.ac.jp.'}, {'ForeName': 'Takashi', 'Initials': 'T', 'LastName': 'Okuda', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, Fukuchiyama City Hospital, Kyoto, Japan.'}, {'ForeName': 'Kohei', 'Initials': 'K', 'LastName': 'Oka', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Molecular Gastroenterology and Hepatology, North Medical Center Kyoto Prefectural University of Medicine, Kyoto, Japan.'}, {'ForeName': 'Satoshi', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Sugino', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Molecular Gastroenterology and Hepatology, Kyoto Prefectural University of Medicine, Kyoto, Japan.'}, {'ForeName': 'Yuki', 'Initials': 'Y', 'LastName': 'Endo', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Molecular Gastroenterology and Hepatology, Kyoto Prefectural University of Medicine, Kyoto, Japan.'}, {'ForeName': 'Takayuki', 'Initials': 'T', 'LastName': 'Ota', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Molecular Gastroenterology and Hepatology, Kyoto Prefectural University of Medicine, Kyoto, Japan.'}, {'ForeName': 'Yuki', 'Initials': 'Y', 'LastName': 'Minagawa', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Molecular Gastroenterology and Hepatology, Kyoto Prefectural University of Medicine, Kyoto, Japan.'}, {'ForeName': 'Chihiro', 'Initials': 'C', 'LastName': 'Yasue', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Gastroenterology, Cancer Institute Hospital of JFCR, Tokyo, Japan.'}, {'ForeName': 'Toshifumi', 'Initials': 'T', 'LastName': 'Tsuji', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, Fukuchiyama City Hospital, Kyoto, Japan.'}, {'ForeName': 'Takayuki', 'Initials': 'T', 'LastName': 'Katayama', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, Saiseikai Suita Hospital, Suita, Japan.'}, {'ForeName': 'Hideki', 'Initials': 'H', 'LastName': 'Nakamura', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, Nishijin Hospital, Kyoto, Japan.'}, {'ForeName': 'Akihiro', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Nagata', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Surgical Pathology, Fukuchiyama City Hospital, Kyoto, Japan.'}, {'ForeName': 'Toshiyuki', 'Initials': 'T', 'LastName': 'Komaki', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, Fukuchiyama City Hospital, Kyoto, Japan.'}, {'ForeName': 'Yuji', 'Initials': 'Y', 'LastName': 'Naito', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Molecular Gastroenterology and Hepatology, Kyoto Prefectural University of Medicine, Kyoto, Japan.'}, {'ForeName': 'Yoshito', 'Initials': 'Y', 'LastName': 'Itoh', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Molecular Gastroenterology and Hepatology, Kyoto Prefectural University of Medicine, Kyoto, Japan.'}, {'ForeName': 'Keizo', 'Initials': 'K', 'LastName': 'Kagawa', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, Fukuchiyama City Hospital, Kyoto, Japan.'}]",Digestion,['10.1159/000498941']
1189,30899327,Utilizing a family-based economic strengthening intervention to improve mental health wellbeing among female adolescent orphans in Uganda.,"Background
It is estimated that almost 20% of the world's adolescents have experienced or are experiencing a mental health problem. Several factors have been associated with the onset of adolescent mental health disorders, including poverty, child abuse and violence, particularly among adolescent girls. This paper examines the effect of participating in a family-based economic strengthening intervention on the mental health well-being of female adolescent orphans impacted by HIV/AIDS in rural Uganda.
Methods
Data utilized in this study was from the Bridges to the Future Study (2011-2016), an economic empowerment intervention aimed at improving health outcomes of orphaned children. Adolescents were randomly assigned to either the control condition receiving bolstered standard of care services for orphaned adolescents; or one of two treatment conditions receiving bolstered standard of care as well as an economic empowerment intervention comprising of a child development account, a mentorship program and workshops on financial management and microenterprise development. Data was collected at baseline, 12- and 24-months post intervention initiation. Multilinear regression analyses were conducted to examine the impact of an economic empowerment intervention on mental health functioning of female participants over time. Mental health functioning was measured by: (1) the Child Depression Inventory; (2) Beck Hopelessness Scale; and (3) Tennessee Self Concept Scale.
Results
Analysis results show an improvement in mental health functioning over time among female participants receiving the intervention compared to their control counterparts. Specifically, compared to participants in the control condition, participants receiving the intervention reported a reduction in depressive symptoms from baseline to 12-months follow-up (b = - 1.262, 95% CI - 2.476, - 0.047), and an additional 0.645-point reduction between baseline and 24-months follow-up (b = - 1.907, 95% CI - 3.192, - 0.622). Participants receiving the intervention reported significant improvement in their reported self-concept from baseline to 24 months follow-up (b = 3.503 (95% CI 1.469, 5.538) compared to participants in the control condition.
Conclusions
Empowerment of young girls, either in the form of peer mentorship and/or economic strengthening seems to significantly improve the overall mental health functioning of adolescent girls impacted by HIV and AIDS in low-income settings.",2019,"Results

1190,28796940,Telephone-Based Depression Care Management for Postpartum Women: A Randomized Controlled Trial.,"OBJECTIVE
With a period prevalence of 21.9% in the year after birth, depression is a common complication of childbearing. We assessed the impact of telephone-delivered depression care management (DCM) on symptom levels, health service utilization, and functional status 3, 6, and 12 months postpartum.
METHODS
The randomized controlled trial was conducted at the University of Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, from March 2006 through September 2010. Women (N = 628) who screened positive for depression (a score of 10 or greater on the Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale) 4 to 6 weeks postpartum were evaluated with the Structured Clinical Interview for DSM-IV-TR Axis I Disorders, Research Version, Patient Edition With Psychotic Screen and enrolled in a randomized trial of DCM compared to enhanced usual care (EUC). Clinicians conducted telephone contacts to educate, assist with treatment decisions, monitor symptoms, facilitate access to services, and encourage links to community resources. Independent evaluators collected symptom scores, functional status, and health services use at 3, 6, and 12 months postpartum. Primary outcome was reduction of symptoms as measured by the Structured Interview Guide for the Hamilton Depression Rating Scale with Atypical Depression Supplement.
RESULTS
Mean depressive symptom and function scores significantly improved (by greater than 50%) in both groups of women but did not differ by DCM versus EUC assignment. Health services use was similar in women randomly assigned to DCM compared to EUC. Women with childhood sexual abuse responded significantly more favorably to DCM on depression and functional measures (all P values < .02).
CONCLUSIONS
Both DCM and EUC favorably impacted depression symptom levels and function. The subgroup of women with childhood sexual abuse benefited significantly more from DCM compared to the EUC condition. Regular telephone availability of a clinician is a resource that appears to be particularly therapeutic to women with childhood sexual abuse.

1191,31821654,Randomised clinical trial of group-based physiotherapy in extremely low birthweight children with minimal/mild motor impairment: A preliminary study.,"AIM
Extremely low birthweight infants often present with mild neurodevelopmental impairments in gross motor function and postural stability in early childhood. The aim of the study was to undertake a randomised controlled trial to determine the short- and longer-term effects of group-based physiotherapy compared to standard care on performance in extremely low birthweight children with minimal/mild impairment.
METHODS
Fifty children aged 4 years, born <28 weeks gestation and/or birthweight <1000 g with minimal/mild motor impairment were enrolled in a randomised controlled trial and randomly allocated to 6 weeks of group-based intervention (n = 24) or standard care (n = 26). The intervention consisted of a combination of traditional physiotherapy and task-oriented approaches of approximately 1 h in duration and varied according to each child's strengths and weaknesses. Baseline, post intervention and 1 year post baseline assessments included Movement Assessment Battery for Children-2 (MABC-2), single leg stance, lateral reach and long jump.
RESULTS
Forty-eight (96%) children completed the study, which demonstrated no significant differences between the intervention and standard care groups on any of the assessments. Both groups improved initially from baseline to initial reassessment on the MABC-2 (P < 0.001). For both groups, however, MABC-2 manual dexterity, aiming/catching and total score declined from baseline to 1 year follow-up. However, for both groups, single leg stance and limb strength were significantly improved from baseline to 1 year follow-up.

1192,31821664,Randomised controlled trial: Shoulder-umbilicus length versus body weight measurement for optimal endotracheal tube depth estimation in ventilated infants.,"AIM
The optimal placement of the endotracheal tube (ETT) in ventilated infants is essential, but birthweight may be not the best parameter to predict it. The aim of this study was a direct comparison of shoulder-umbilical length (experimental group) versus birthweight (control group) as predictor of optimal ETT placement in Malaysian ventilated infants.
METHODS
All infants requiring ventilation in the neonatal intensive care unit of a tertiary hospital in Malaysia during the 4-month study period were eligible to enter this randomised controlled trial. All participants were randomised into two groups: experimental and control group. The main outcome measure was malposition of the ETT (requiring adjustment), as seen on the chest X-ray performed within 1 h after intubation. Tube placement was assessed by two neonatologists, blinded to the allocation.
RESULTS
One hundred and ten infants were randomised, 55 in each group. The ETT was malpositioned in 13 of 55 infants (23%) for the experimental group and 22 of 55 infants (40%) in the control group (P = 0.06).

However, the underlying mechanism is not fully understood. This study aimed to investigate the effect of 1200 mg/day α-LA supplementation and 3 sessions per week of Faradic (an electrical stimulating system) on anthropometric parameters, body composition, VEGF, Sirtuin-1, nitric oxide (NO), and PGC1-α in obese people undergoing a weight loss regime. Methods: This randomised clinical trial was carried out on 100 obese adults. The subjects were randomly assigned to four groups of 25 subjects including Faradic, α-LA, α-LA + Faradic, and control. A Bio Impedance Analyser (BIA) was used to estimate anthropometric measurements including weight, body mass index (BMI), fat mass, and fat free mass. The serum levels of Sirtuin-1, PGC1-α, VEGF, and NO levels were measured. All measurements were done at baseline and after 8 weeks of the intervention. Results: A significant weight reduction was observed in all four groups compared to baseline ( p <.01). The placebo group had significantly higher weight, BMI, weight circumstance (WC), and body fat (BF) compared with the other groups. The α-LA + Faradic group had significantly lower weight, BMI, BF, WC than control, faradic, and α-LA groups and higher, Sirtuin and PGC than the control group (all p < .05). Conclusions: The findings indicated that the α-LA and Faradic interventions may have a synergistic effect on weight, BMI, BF, WC, and SLM, possibly through changes in serum level of VEGF, NO, and PGC. Further studies are warranted to clarify the mutual effects of -α-LA and Faradic on obesity and its molecular mechanisms.

1195,30938299,"Maternal pertussis vaccination and its effects on the immune response of infants aged up to 12 months in the Netherlands: an open-label, parallel, randomised controlled trial.","BACKGROUND
Maternal tetanus, diphtheria, and acellular pertussis (Tdap) vaccination offers protection for neonates against clinical pertussis until primary vaccinations, but maternal antibodies also interfere with infants' immune responses to primary vaccinations. We investigated the effect of maternal Tdap vaccination on the pertussis antibody responses of infants starting primary vaccinations at age 3 months.
METHODS
In an open-label, parallel, randomised, controlled trial, pregnant women aged 18-40 years with a low risk of pregnancy complications were recruited through independent midwives at 36 midwife clinics in the Netherlands and received Tdap vaccination either at 30-32 weeks of pregnancy (maternal Tdap group) or within 48 h after delivery (control group). All term-born infants were vaccinated with the diphtheria, tetanus, and pertussis-inactivated poliomyelitis-Haemophilus influenzae type B-hepatitis B six-in-one vaccine and a ten-valent pneumococcal vaccine at 3 months, 5 months, and 11 months. Randomisation was done using a number generator in a 1:1 ratio and with sealed envelopes. Participants and clinical trial staff were not masked, but laboratory technicians were unaware of study group assignments. The primary endpoint was serum IgG pertussis toxin antibody concentrations at age 3 months. Cord blood and infant blood samples were collected at age 2 months, 3 months, 6 months, 11 months, and 12 months. Analysis was done by modified intention to treat with all randomly assigned participants in case a laboratory result was available. This trial is registered with ClinicaltTrialsRegister.eu (EudraCT 2012-004006-9) and trialregister.nl (NTR number NTR4314). The trial is now closed to new participants.
FINDINGS
Between Jan 16, 2014, and March 4, 2016, 118 pregnant women were enrolled into our study, with 58 in the maternal Tdap group and 60 in the control group. The geometric mean concentration (GMC) of pertussis toxin antibodies were higher in infants in the maternal Tdap group than in the control group infants at age 3 months (GMC ratio 16·6, 95% CI 10·9-25·2) and also significantly higher compared with control infants at age 2 months. After primary vaccinations, antibody concentrations for pertussis toxin, filamentous haemagglutinin, and pertactin were significantly lower at all timepoints in infants of the maternal Tdap group than in infants in the control group. No safety issues after maternal Tdap vaccination were encountered.
INTERPRETATION
In view of the high pertussis toxin antibody concentrations at age 3 months, maternal vaccination supports a delay of the first pertussis vaccination in infants until at least age 3 months. Maternal antibody interference affects antibody concentrations after primary and booster vaccinations. The clinical consequences of this interference remain to be established.

1196,30885505,"Feasibility and economic assessment of chromocolonoscopy for detection of proximal serrated neoplasia within a population-based colorectal cancer screening programme (CONSCOP): an open-label, randomised controlled non-inferiority trial.","BACKGROUND
Most post-colonoscopy interval colorectal cancers are proximal; serrated polyps are often precursors to these cancers and are considered difficult to detect. We assessed the safety, feasibility, and economic effect of chromocolonoscopy on detection of proximal serrated neoplasia.
METHODS
We did an open-label, multicentre, randomised, controlled non-inferiority trial including patients from Bowel Screening Wales centres. Participants who tested positive for faecal occult blood and who were eligible for and considered fit to have colonoscopy (patients with known cases of polyposis syndromes, Lynch syndrome, and chronic inflammatory disease were excluded) were randomly assigned (1:1; with the use of minimisation, stratified by centre with an 80:20 random element) to either standard white light colonoscopy (standard group) or chromocolonoscopy (indigo carmine dye [0·2%]; chromocolonoscopy group) using a secure, internet-based, computerised, randomisation system that used centralised, dynamic allocation. Participants were followed up for 1 year and data from index colonoscopies and associated clearance procedures were analysed. All proximal polyps were reviewed by an expert pathologist panel. The main outcome on which power was based was time taken to perform the colonoscopy procedure, defined as from the time when the scope was inserted to withdrawal from the anus, assessed in the per-protocol population. The non-inferiority margin was 15 min. This trial is complete and is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, number NCT01972451.
FINDINGS
Between Nov 20, 2014, and June 16, 2016, 741 (72%) of 1031 patients screened were eligible and consented: 360 were randomly assigned to white light colonoscopy and 381 to chromocolonoscopy. In the chromocolonoscopy group, the procedure took a mean of 36·8 min (SD 15·0), compared with a mean of 30·6 min (13·7) in the standard group (mean difference 6·3 min [95% CI 4·2-8·4] longer with chromocolonoscopy than in the standard group). The mean difference was within the prespecified non-inferiority margin. Detection rates for proximal serrated lesions were significantly higher in the chromocolonoscopy group than in the control group (45 [12%] of 381 patients vs 23 [6%] of 360 patients; odds ratio 1·96 [95% CI 1·16-3·32]; p=0·012). Serious adverse events (four cases of postpolypectomy bleeding [two in each group], and one case of anxiety and hyperventilation [in the chromocolonoscopy group]), colonoscopy quality measures, comfort scores, and sedation were similar between groups.
INTERPRETATION
Chromocolonoscopy is feasible within a population-based colorectal cancer screening programme, is safe, and has significantly increased detection of proximal serrated neoplasia and other polyp types compared with standard colonoscopy. Larger randomised trials of chromocolonoscopy, powered for improved detection of significant serrated polyps and for longer-term follow-up to investigate the effect on reduction of interval cancers within screening populations, are warranted.

1197,32407242,Exogenous ketosis impacts neither performance nor muscle glycogen breakdown in prolonged endurance exercise.,"Available evidence indicates that ketone bodies inhibit glycolysis in contracting muscles. Therefore, we investigated whether acute exogenous ketosis by oral ketone ester (KE) intake early in a simulated cycling race, can induce transient glycogen sparing by glycolytic inhibition thereby increasing glycogen availability in the final phase of the event. In a randomized cross-over design, 12 highly-trained male cyclists completed a simulated cycling race (RACE), which consisted of 3h intermittent cycling (IMT 180' ), a 15-min time-trial (TT 15' ) and a maximal sprint (SPRINT). During RACE subjects received 60g carbohydrates per h combined with three boluses (25-20-20g) (R)-3-hydroxybutyl (R)-3-hydroxybutyrate (KE) or a control drink (CON) at 60 and 20 min before, and at 30 min during RACE.KE intake transiently increased blood D-ß-hydroxybutyrate to ~3 mM (range: 2.6-5.2 mM) during the first half of RACE (p<0.001 vs. CON). Blood pH concomitantly decreased from ~7.42 to 7.36 (range: 7.29-7.40), whilst bicarbonate dropped from 26.0 to 21.6 mM (range: 20.1-23.7) (both p<0.001 vs. CON) . Net muscle glycogen breakdown during IMT 180' (KE: -78±30 (SD); CON: -60±22 mmol/kg ww, p=0.08) and TT 15' (KE: -9±18; CON: -18±18 mmol/kg ww, p=0.35) was similar between KE and CON. Accordingly, mean power output during TT 15' (KE: 273±38; CON: 272±37 W, p=0.83) and time-to-exhaustion in the SPRINT (KE: 59±16; CON: 58±17 s, p=0.66) were similar between conditions.

1198,30304644,The effects and costs of home-based rehabilitation for heart failure with reduced ejection fraction: The REACH-HF multicentre randomized controlled trial.,"BACKGROUND
Cardiac rehabilitation improves health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and reduces hospitalizations in patients with heart failure, but international uptake of cardiac rehabilitation for heart failure remains low.
DESIGN AND METHODS
The aim of this multicentre randomized trial was to compare the REACH-HF (Rehabilitation EnAblement in CHronicHeart Failure) intervention, a facilitated self-care and home-based cardiac rehabilitation programme to usual care for adults with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). The study primary hypothesis was that the addition of the REACH-HF intervention to usual care would improve disease-specific HRQoL (Minnesota Living with Heart Failure questionnaire (MLHFQ)) at 12 months compared with usual care alone.
RESULTS
The study recruited 216 participants, predominantly men (78%), with an average age of 70 years and mean left ventricular ejection fraction of 34%. Overall, 185 (86%) participants provided data for the primary outcome. At 12 months, there was a significant and clinically meaningful between-group difference in the MLHFQ score of -5.7 points (95% confidence interval -10.6 to -0.7) in favour of the REACH-HF intervention group ( p = 0.025). With the exception of patient self-care ( p < 0.001) there was no significant difference in other secondary outcomes, including clinical events ( p > 0.05) at follow-up compared with usual care. The mean cost of the REACH-HF intervention was £418 per participant.

1199,17679735,Management of patients with fibromyalgia using biofeedback: a randomized control trial.,"OBJECTIVE
Fibromyalgia syndrome (FMS) is a chronic rheumatological condition which could be characterized by generalized pain and fatigue. Cognitive and behavioral therapy has been found to be a suitable technique in the management of FMS. This study intends to evaluate the efficacy of electromyography (EMG) biofeedback to reduce pain in patients with FMS.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
A randomized controlled trial involving two groups of FMS patients, one receiving EMG biofeedback and the other a sham biofeedback, was carried out. The assessment tools included in the study were fibromyalgia impact questionnaire (FIQ), visual analogue scale (VAS), six-minute walk test (SMWT) and number of tender points; and tenderness of each tender point was done for both the groups.
STATISTICS
A Student's 't' test was used to study the test for significance.
RESULTS
After using biofeedback, the mean VAS scores and the mean number of tender points were found to be 3 out of 10 and 6 out of 18 respectively. Subjective analysis from both groups showed improvement in physical and psychological realms. Statistical significance.

1200,17558098,Immunomodulatory role of Tinospora cordifolia as an adjuvant in surgical treatment of diabetic foot ulcers: a prospective randomized controlled study.,"BACKGROUND
Chronic diabetic patients with wounds have deficient growth factors and impaired local and systemic cellular immunity. Treatment with growth factors is expensive with risk of infection transmission and these factors may not achieve optimum wound concentration. We evaluated the role of generalized immunomodulation in diabetic ulcers by using Tinospora cordifolia as an adjuvant therapy and studied its influence on parameters/determinants of healing, on bacterial eradication and on polymorphonuclear phagocytosis.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
A prospective double-blind randomized controlled study lasting for over 18 months in 50 patients. The ulcer was classified by wound morphology and severity with Wound Severity Score (Pecoraro-Reiber system). Mean ulcer area, depth and perimeter were measured and swabs taken for culture. Blood was collected to assess polymorphonuclear % phagocytosis (PMN function by Lehrer-Cline C. albicans method). Medical therapy, glycemic control, debridement, wound care were optimized. At 4 weeks, parameters were reassessed. PMN function was reviewed at 3 months.
RESULTS AND ANALYSIS
Forty-five patients completed the trial: study group - 23 (M:F = 17:1; mean age = 56.3 years; mean ulcer duration = 21.1 days); control group 22 (M:F = 19:3; mean age = 56.3 years; mean ulcer duration = 30.4 days). Net improvement was seen in 17 patients (73.9%) in the study group; while in the control group, in 13 patients (59.1%); P = 0.292. Specific parameters included rate of change of ulcer area - cm(2) /day (study - 0.15; control - 0.07; P = 0.145); rate of change of ulcer perimeter - mm/day (study - 0.09; control = - 0.07; P = 0.089); change of depth - mm (study - 2.2; control - 1.4; P = 0.096); change of wound score (study - 14.4; control - 10.6; P = 0.149); total number of debridements (study - 1.9; control - 2.5; P = 0.03) and change in % phagocytosis (study - 3.9; control - 2.3; P = 0.048).
CONCLUSION
Diabetic patients with foot ulcers on T. cordifolia as an adjuvant therapy showed significantly better final outcome with improvement in wound healing.

1201,30895611,"Combined vaginal administration of nystatin, diiodohydroxyquin, and benzalkonium chloride versus oral metronidazole for the treatment of bacterial vaginosis.","OBJECTIVE
To compare combined vaginal administration of nystatin, diiodohydroxyquin, and benzalkonium chloride versus oral metronidazole for the treatment of bacterial vaginosis (BV).
METHODS
A randomized controlled trial was conducted among women diagnosed with BV using the Amsel criteria (n=90) at a university hospital in Khon Kaen, Thailand, between June 27, 2017, and April 30, 2018. The oral metronidazole group (n=44) received 400 mg of metronidazole, administered three times per day. The combined vaginal tablet group (n=46) received a vaginal suppository once daily, which comprised nystatin (100 000 U), diiodohydroxyquin (100 mg), and benzalkonium chloride (7 mg). Treatment was administered for 7 days in both groups. Follow-up visits at 14 and 42 days assessed treatment outcomes and adverse effects.
RESULTS
Remission of BV occurred among 41 (93%) women in the oral metronidazole group and 39 (85%) women in the combined vaginal tablet group. The adjusted relative risk was 0.92 (95% confidence interval 0.80-1.06). The rate of nausea and/or vomiting was significantly higher in the oral metronidazole group than that in the combined vaginal tablet group.
CONCLUSION
Treatment efficacy of the combined vaginal tablet versus oral metronidazole was equivalent.

1202,31709969,Vitamin A intakes remain higher among intervention participants 3 years after a biofortification intervention in Mozambique.,"The Reaching End Users (REU) project introduced orange sweet potatoes (OSP) to farmers in northern Mozambique between 2006 and 2009, and the associated cluster randomised control trial found increased vitamin A intake among targeted children and women of child-bearing age and reduced prevalence of inadequate vitamin A intake. Yet little is known about whether successful agricultural-nutrition interventions have lasting effects. This study measures the lasting effects of the REU project, 3 years after the project ended, on vitamin A intake. To do so, dietary intake data were collected in the same thirty-six villages as the original study, focusing on both women of child-bearing age and children under 6 years old, the latter including both children who had been measured before and younger children (under 3 years old) in the same farmer groups. The dietary intake is then converted to micronutrient intake to compare treated households with control households. Vitamin A intake remains higher in treated villages than in control villages among both children under 3 years old, who had not been born when the original intervention ended, and mothers of child-bearing age. Differences in vitamin A intake can wholly be attributed to differences in OSP intake. Therefore, the REU project appears to have had lasting impacts on vitamin A intake beyond the intervention period.

1203,30895706,Long-term impact of diabetes in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction: Insights from the EXAMINATION randomized trial.,"BACKGROUND
Long-term outcomes of diabetic patients suffering from ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and treated with second-generation drug-eluting stent have been scarcely evaluated. The aim of this posthoc subanalysis of the EXAMINATION trial was to compare 5-year outcomes according to the presence of diabetes mellitus.
METHODS
From a total of 1,497 patients included in the trial, 258 were diabetics (n = 137, received everolimus-eluting stent (EES) and n = 121 bare-metal stent (BMS); whereas 1,239 were nondiabetics (n = 613 treated with EES and n = 626 with BMS). Patient-oriented combined endpoint (POCE) defined as all-cause death, any MI or any revascularization, and other clinical parameters were collected up to 5-years. All results were adjusted for various potential confounders.
RESULTS
At 5-years, patients with diabetes showed similar rates of POCE between diabetics treated with EES and those treated with BMS (32.8% vs. 32.2%; p = 0.88).

1204,31710269,A mobile app to promote alcohol and drug SBIRT skill translation among multi-disciplinary health care trainees: Results of a randomized controlled trial.,"Background : Adherence to clinical practice guidelines for alcohol and drug screening, brief intervention, and referral to treatment (SBIRT) is often inadequate. Mobile apps developed as clinical translation tools could improve the delivery of high fidelity SBIRT. Methods : This study tested the effectiveness of an SBIRT mobile app conceptually aligned with the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) to support SBIRT delivery by health care trainees (nursing, social work, internal medicine, psychiatry, and psychology) working in clinical settings ( N = 101). Bivariate analyses examined the rate of SBIRT delivery between trainees assigned to the experimental (app) and control (no app) study conditions; as well as the relationship between TPB-based constructs, intention to deliver SBIRT, and screening rates. Results : No significant differences were identified between the study conditions in SBIRT delivery. Significant correlations were found between intent to screen and TPB variables including attitudes/behavioral beliefs concerning substance use treatment ( r = .49, p = .01); confidence in clinical skills ( r = .36, p = .01); subjective norms ( r = .54, p = .01) and perceived behavioral control over appointment time constraints ( r = .42, p = .01). Also significant were correlations between percent of patients screened and confidence ( r = .24, p = .05); subjective norms ( r = .22, p = .05) and perceived behavioral control ( r = .28, p = .01). Conclusions : The negative results of the study condition comparisons indicate the need for further investigation of strategies to optimize mobile app utilization, engagement, and effectiveness as a clinical translation tool.

1205,31708152,"Effect of co-trimoxazole prophylaxis on morbidity and mortality of HIV-exposed, HIV-uninfected infants in South Africa: a randomised controlled, non-inferiority trial.","BACKGROUND
WHO guidelines recommend co-trimoxazole prophylaxis for HIV-exposed, HIV-uninfected infants. These guidelines date back to an era in which HIV testing of infants was impossible and mothers had poor access to antiretroviral treatment. To determine whether this guideline requires revision in the current era of effective prevention of mother-to-child transmission and early infant diagnosis programmes, we aimed to investigate whether receiving no co-trimoxazole prophylaxis is inferior to receiving co-trimoxazole prophylaxis in the resulting incidence of grade 3 or 4 common childhood illnesses or mortality in breastfed HIV-exposed, HIV-uninfected infants.
METHODS
We investigated our aim in a randomised controlled, non-inferiority trial. We enrolled the HIV-negative infants of mothers living with HIV who were actively involved in transmission prevention programmes in two clinics in Durban, South Africa. Infants were included in the study if they were breastfeeding at the screening and enrolment visits, and their mother was planning to breastfeed for at least 6 months; were a singleton birth and had a birthweight of 2 kg or more; had no clinically observed genetic disorders; and had no serious illnesses and had not received antibiotics or traditional medications (such as herbal remedies). Infants were randomly assigned (1:1) to receive co-trimoxazole or no co-trimoxazole. In the co-trimoxazole group, infants received the drug until all exposure to HIV had ceased (ie, 6 weeks after last exposure to breastmilk) and the infant was confirmed to be uninfected with HIV. The drug was administered by mothers in once-daily regimens of 20 mg trimethoprim and 100 mg sulfamethoxazole orally (age <6 months or bodyweight <5 kg), or 40 mg trimethoprim and 200 mg sulfamethoxazole orally (age >6 months or bodyweight >5 kg). Clinical and laboratory staff always remained masked to group assignment, but mothers and study counsellors were not. Infants and their mothers attended study visits at ages 6 weeks (for enrolment and randomisation), 10 weeks, 14 weeks, and then monthly from 4 to 12 months. Our primary outcome was the incidence of grade 3 or 4 common childhood illnesses (pneumonia or diarrhoea) or mortality in breastfed HIV-exposed, HIV-uninfected infants by age 12 months. A non-inferiority bound of 5% was used. The study is registered with the Pan African Clinical Trials Registry, number PACTR201311000621110, and the South African National Clinical Trials Registry, number DOH-27-0614-4728.
FINDINGS
We screened 1570 mother-child pairs for study enrolment, from whom (78%) eligible infants were enrolled into the study between Oct 16, 2013, and May 23, 2018. Of the infants enrolled, 611 (50%) were randomly assigned to the co-trimoxazole group and 609 (50%) were randomly assigned to the no co-trimoxazole group. One (<1%) infant in the no co-trimoxazole group was excluded from the analysis of the final outcomes for having received traditional medicine (which only became apparent after randomisation); therefore, 611 (50%) infants in the co-trimoxazole group and 608 (50%) infants in the no co-trimoxazole group were included in the final intention-to-treat analysis. 136 (22%) infants in the co-trimoxazole group and 139 (23%) infants in the no co-trimoxazole group did not complete the 12-month study visit, predominantly because of loss to follow-up (93 [15%] infants in the co-trimoxazole group; 90 [15%] infants in the no co-trimoxazole group). The cumulative probability of the composite primary outcome was 0·114 (95% CI 0·076 to 0·147; 49 events) in the co-trimoxazole group versus 0·0795 (0·044 to 0·115; 39 events) in the no co-trimoxazole group. The risk difference (no co-trimoxazole group minus co-trimoxazole group) was -0·0319 (-0·075 to 0·011), meaning that the risk was around 3 percentage points lower in the no co-trimoxazole group on the additive scale.
INTERPRETATION
We can conclude that no co-trimoxazole is not inferior to daily co-trimoxazole among breastfed HIV-exposed, HIV-uninfected infants whose mothers are accessing a prevention of mother-to-child transmission programme in an area unaffected by malaria. We therefore believe that WHO should revise the co-trimoxazole guidelines for HIV-exposed, HIV-uninfected infants in areas unaffected by malaria.

1206,28231626,Default mode network deactivation to smoking cue relative to food cue predicts treatment outcome in nicotine use disorder.,"Identifying predictors of treatment outcome for nicotine use disorders (NUDs) may help improve efficacy of established treatments, like varenicline. Brain reactivity to drug stimuli predicts relapse risk in nicotine and other substance use disorders in some studies. Activity in the default mode network (DMN) is affected by drug cues and other palatable cues, but its clinical significance is unclear. In this study, 143 individuals with NUD (male n = 91, ages 18-55 years) received a functional magnetic resonance imaging scan during a visual cue task during which they were presented with a series of smoking-related or food-related video clips prior to randomization to treatment with varenicline (n = 80) or placebo. Group independent components analysis was utilized to isolate the DMN, and temporal sorting was used to calculate the difference between the DMN blood-oxygen-level dependent signal during smoke cues and that during food cues for each individual. Food cues were associated with greater deactivation compared with smoke cues in the DMN. In correcting for baseline smoking and other clinical variables, which have been shown to be related to treatment outcome in previous work, a less positive Smoke - Food difference score predicted greater smoking at 6 and 12 weeks when both treatment groups were combined (P = 0.005, β = -0.766). An exploratory analysis of executive control and salience networks demonstrated that a more positive Smoke - Food difference score for executive control network predicted a more robust response to varenicline relative to placebo.

Intravenous iron sucrose is a promising therapy for increasing haemoglobin concentration; however, its effect on clinical outcomes in pregnancy is not yet established. We aimed to assess the safety and clinical effectiveness of intravenous iron sucrose (intervention) versus standard oral iron (control) therapy in the treatment of women with moderate-to-severe iron deficiency anaemia in pregnancy.
METHODS
We did a multicentre, open-label, phase 3, randomised, controlled trial at four government medical colleges in India. Pregnant women, aged 18 years or older, at 20-28 weeks of gestation with a haemoglobin concentration of 5-8 g/dL, or at 29-32 weeks of gestation with a haemoglobin concentration of 5-9 g/dL, were randomly assigned (1:1) to receive intravenous iron sucrose (dose was calculated using a formula based on bodyweight and haemoglobin deficit) or standard oral iron therapy (100 mg elemental iron twice daily). Logistic regression was used to compare the primary maternal composite outcome consisting of potentially life-threatening conditions during peripartum and postpartum periods (postpartum haemorrhage, the need for blood transfusion during and after delivery, puerperal sepsis, shock, prolonged hospital stay [>3 days following vaginal delivery and >7 days after lower segment caesarean section], and intensive care unit admission or referral to higher centres) adjusted for site and severity of anaemia. The primary outcome was analysed in a modified intention-to-treat population, which excluded participants who refused to participate after randomisation, those who were lost to follow-up, and those whose outcome data were missing. Safety was assessed in both modified intention-to-treat and as-treated populations. The data safety monitoring board recommended stopping the trial after the first interim analysis because of futility (conditional power 1·14% under the null effects, 3·0% under the continued effects, and 44·83% under hypothesised effects). This trial is registered with the Clinical Trial Registry of India, CTRI/2012/05/002626.
FINDINGS
Between Jan 31, 2014, and July 31, 2017, 2018 women were enrolled, and 999 were randomly assigned to the intravenous iron sucrose group and 1019 to the standard therapy group. The primary maternal composite outcome was reported in 89 (9%) of 958 patients in the intravenous iron sucrose group and in 95 (10%) of 976 patients in the standard therapy group (adjusted odds ratio 0·95, 95% CI 0·70-1·29). 16 (2%) of 958 women in the intravenous iron sucrose group and 13 (1%) of 976 women in the standard therapy group had serious maternal adverse events. Serious fetal and neonatal adverse events were reported by 39 (4%) of 961 women in the intravenous iron sucrose group and 45 (5%) of 982 women in the standard therapy group. At 6 weeks post-randomisation, minor side-effects were reported by 117 (16%) of 737 women in the intravenous iron sucrose group versus 155 (21%) of 721 women in the standard therapy group. None of the serious adverse events was found to be related to the trial procedures or the interventions as per the causality assessment made by the trial investigators, ethics committees, and regulatory body.
INTERPRETATION
The study was stopped due to futility. There is insufficient evidence to show the effectiveness of intravenous iron sucrose in reducing clinical outcomes compared with standard oral iron therapy in pregnant women with moderate-to-severe anaemia.

1208,30880176,"Glepaglutide, a novel long-acting glucagon-like peptide-2 analogue, for patients with short bowel syndrome: a randomised phase 2 trial.","BACKGROUND
Patients with short bowel syndrome might have impaired postprandial endogenous glucagon-like peptide-2 (GLP-2) secretion, which is required for optimal intestinal adaptation. We aimed to assess the therapeutic potential of glepaglutide, a novel long-acting GLP-2 analogue, for reducing faecal output and increasing intestinal absorption in patients with short bowel syndrome.
METHODS
In this single-centre, double-blind, crossover, randomised phase 2 trial, adults (aged ≥18 to ≤90 years) with short bowel syndrome and with a faecal wet weight output of 1500 g/day or more were randomly assigned to receive one of six dose sequences of glepaglutide (10 mg, 1 mg; 10 mg, 0·1 mg; 1 mg, 10 mg; 1 mg, 0·1 mg; 0·1 mg, 10 mg; or 0·1 mg, 1 mg). Patients received daily subcutaneous injections of the first assigned dose of glepaglutide for 3 weeks, followed by a washout period of 4-8 weeks, and then the second dose of glepaglutide for 3 weeks. An unmasked statistician generated the randomisation list, and the trial investigator enrolled patients and assigned them their patient numbers. Trial investigators, patients, and other care providers were masked throughout the trial. The primary endpoint was the absolute change from baseline in faecal wet weight output, measured separately over the two treatment periods. Metabolic balance studies were done before and after each treatment period to assess the primary endpoint. Per-protocol analysis was used to assess the efficacy. Safety analysis was by intention to treat. This trial is registered at ClinicalTrials.gov, number NCT02690025, and has completed.
FINDINGS
Of the 22 patients screened between Feb 5, 2016, and Jan 25, 2017, 18 patients were randomly assigned and treated with glepaglutide; 16 patients completed the trial. Treatment with 1 mg and 10 mg glepaglutide changed the adjusted mean faecal output by -592 g/day (95% CI -913 to -272; p=0·002) and -833 g/day (-1152 to -515; p=0·0002) from baseline, respectively. No changes were observed with 0·1 mg glepaglutide. Of the 18 patients who were randomly assigned to treatment, common treatment-related adverse events were stoma complications (13 [72%] patients), injection site reactions (11 [61%]), peripheral oedema (ten [56%]), nausea and abdominal pain (eight [44%] each), polyuria and fatigue (six [33%] each), abdominal distention, vomiting, and dizziness (five [28%] each); and cough and decreased appetite (four [22%] each). Related or possibly related serious adverse events were reported in two patients in the 0·1 mg dose group and two patients in the 10 mg dose group. These events included abdominal pain, stoma obstruction, catheter-related sepsis, and infection of unknown origin. No patients died during the trial.
INTERPRETATION
Glepaglutide was well tolerated, and was associated with improved intestinal absorption in patients with short bowel syndrome with 1 mg and 10 mg glepaglutide, but not with 0·1 mg glepaglutide. Larger phase 3 clinical trials of longer durations have been initiated to fully assess the safety and efficacy of glepaglutide.

1209,30898609,Alirocumab in Patients With Polyvascular Disease and Recent Acute Coronary Syndrome: ODYSSEY OUTCOMES Trial.,"BACKGROUND
Patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and concomitant noncoronary atherosclerosis have a high risk of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs) and death. The impact of lipid lowering by proprotein convertase subtilisin-kexin type 9 inhibition in such patients is undetermined.
OBJECTIVES
This pre-specified analysis from ODYSSEY OUTCOMES (Evaluation of Cardiovascular Outcomes After an Acute Coronary Syndrome During Treatment With Alirocumab) determined whether polyvascular disease influenced risks of MACEs and death and their modification by alirocumab in patients with recent ACS and dyslipidemia despite intensive statin therapy.
METHODS
Patients were randomized to alirocumab or placebo 1 to 12 months after ACS. The primary MACEs endpoint was the composite of coronary heart disease death, nonfatal myocardial infarction, fatal or nonfatal ischemic stroke, or unstable angina requiring hospitalization. All-cause death was a secondary endpoint.
RESULTS
Median follow-up was 2.8 years. Of 18,924 patients, 17,370 had monovascular (coronary) disease, 1,405 had polyvascular disease in 2 beds (coronary and peripheral artery or cerebrovascular), and 149 had polyvascular disease in 3 beds (coronary, peripheral artery, cerebrovascular). With placebo, the incidence of MACEs by respective vascular categories was 10.0%, 22.2%, and 39.7%. With alirocumab, the corresponding absolute risk reduction was 1.4% (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.6% to 2.3%), 1.9% (95% CI: -2.4% to 6.2%), and 13.0% (95% CI: -2.0% to 28.0%). With placebo, the incidence of death by respective vascular categories was 3.5%, 10.0%, and 21.8%; the absolute risk reduction with alirocumab was 0.4% (95% CI: -0.1% to 1.0%), 1.3% (95% CI: -1.8% to 4.3%), and 16.2% (95% CI: 5.5% to 26.8%).
CONCLUSIONS
In patients with recent ACS and dyslipidemia despite intensive statin therapy, polyvascular disease is associated with high risks of MACEs and death.

1210,30892782,Total cerebrovascular blood flow and whole brain perfusion in children sedated using propofol with or without ketamine at induction: An investigation with 2D-Cine PC and ASL.,"BACKGROUND
Multiple sedation regimes may be used to facilitate pediatric MRI scans. These regimes might affect cerebral blood flow and hemodynamics to varying degrees, particularly in children who may be vulnerable to anesthetic side effects.
PURPOSE
To compare the effects of propofol monosedation solely (Pm group) vs. a combination of propofol and ketamine (KP group) on brain hemodynamics and perfusion.
STUDY TYPE
Prospective double-blind randomized trial.
FIELD STRENGTH/SEQUENCES
1.5T and 3T. 2D-Cine phase contrast (2D-Cine PC) and pseudocontinuous arterial spin labeling (ASL).
POPULATION
Children aged from 3 months to 10 years referred for MRI with deep sedation were randomized into either the KP or the Pm group. Perfusion images were acquired with ASL followed by single-slice 2D-Cine PC acquired between the cervical vertebra C2 and C3.
ASSESSMENT
Average whole-brain perfusion (WBP ml.min -1 .100 ml -1 ) was extracted from the ASL perfusion maps and total cerebrovascular blood flow (CVF) was quantified by bilaterally summing the flow in the vertebral and the internal carotid arteries. The CVF values were converted to units of ml.min -1 .100 g -1 to calculate the tissue CVF 100g (ml.min -1 .100 g -1 ). Images were assessed by a neuroradiologist and data from n = 81 (ASL) and n = 55 (PC) cases with no apparent pathology were entered into the analysis.
STATISTICAL TESTS
Multivariate analysis of covariance was performed to compare drug sedation effects on WBP, CVF, and CVF 100g .
RESULTS
No significant difference in arterial flow was observed (P = 0.57), but the KP group showed significantly higher WBP than the Pm group, covarying for scanner and age (P = 0.003). A correlation analysis showed a significant positive correlation between mean WBP (ml.min -1 .100 g -1 ) and mean CVF 100g .
DATA CONCLUSION
The KP group showed higher perfusion but no significant difference in vascular flow compared with the Pm group. WBP and CVF 100g correlated significantly, but ASL appeared to have more susceptibility to perfusion differences arising from the different sedation regimes.

1212,31488260,Effectiveness of a self-management programme in the treatment of antivitamin K oral anticoagulants. A feasibility study.,"BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES
To compare the efficacy of a self-monitoring programme vs. the conventional method used before the intervention in maintaining the international normalised ratio (INR) in the therapeutic range in patients receiving oral anticoagulants, as well as complications, quality of life and the time invested in the tests.
PATIENTS AND METHODS
Pre-pospilot and feasibility study. The study included 15 patients over the age of 18 years who had been attending the monitoring programme for more than 6months. In the pre phase, patients performed the tests and follow-up in the outpatient clinic. After conducting an individual training session with each patient to teach them how to perform venipuncture, use the coagulometer, manage dosing tables and subsequent follow-up from the virtual clinic, we compared the percentage of in-range INR tests, complications, quality of life, and the time invested in performing the tests pre- (conventional) and post-intervention (intervention for self-monitoring).
RESULTS
The percentage of INR tests in the therapeutic range was significantly higher in the post-phase than in the pre-phase (65.6% vs. 37.8%, p<.001). Likewise, the incidence of both minor and serious complications decreased in the post-phase (20% vs. 0%, and 6.7% vs. 0%, respectively). Finally, all 5dimensions of the quality of life questionnaire improved significantly, while the time invested decreased.

1213,27808528,Avoidant coping and diabetes-related distress: Pathways to adolescents' Type 1 diabetes outcomes.,"OBJECTIVE
Adolescents with Type 1 diabetes (T1D) are vulnerable to diabetes-related distress and often struggle to complete self-management tasks needed to maintain blood glucose values in target range. One way that youth with T1D handle problems is through avoidant coping. The current study examined cross-time associations between avoidant coping style and diabetes outcomes and tested the possible mediating role of diabetes-related distress.
METHOD
Adolescents with T1D (N = 264) were assessed 4 times over 1 year to measure avoidant coping style, diabetes-related distress, adherence (on the basis of glucometer data and self-report), and glycemic control (hemoglobin A1c). Mediation and direct effects were tested across time using time-lagged autoregressive path models, making use of the repeated measurement of all constructs.
RESULTS
The hypothesized mediation effect was found for all 3 diabetes outcomes. Higher levels of avoidant coping style were associated with greater diabetes-related distress at the subsequent time point, which was related in turn to fewer blood glucose checks, less frequent self-care behaviors, and poorer glycemic control (higher A1c) at the next assessment.
CONCLUSIONS
In the context of diabetes, an avoidant coping style may contribute to greater diabetes-specific distress followed by deterioration in self-management and glycemic control over time. Maladaptive coping styles are modifiable factors that offer an entry point into intervention before further difficulties can take hold. (PsycINFO Database Record",2017,"Higher levels of avoidant coping style were associated with greater diabetes-related distress at the subsequent time point, which was related in turn to fewer blood glucose checks, less frequent self-care behaviors, and poorer glycemic control (higher A1c) at the next assessment.

1214,30897584,Effect of EP1 Receptor Antagonist on Transient Lower Esophageal Sphincter Relaxations in Humans.,"BACKGROUND/AIMS
Transient lower esophageal sphincter relaxations (TLESRs) are the major cause of gastroesophageal reflux. Recently, an EP1 receptor antagonist, ONO-8539, showed the reduction of TLESRs in monkeys. However, its effect on TLESRs in humans remains unclear. This study investigated the effect of ONO-8539 on postprandial TLESRs in healthy male subjects.
METHODS
Twenty-seven subjects participated in this placebo-controlled, cross-over study. The subjects received either placebo or ONO-8539 (450 mg) after a standardized breakfast. A 30-min basal recording was performed 4 h after drug administration. Subsequently, TLESR recordings were performed after a high-fat test meal for 3 h. The examination was repeated at least 7 days from the first evaluation for washout.
RESULTS
Thirteen patients were ultimately analyzed. The basal lower esophageal sphincter pressure was not different between the 2 groups (16.3 and 18.0 mm Hg for placebo and ONO-8539, respectively; p = 0.88). ONO-8539 significantly reduced the number of TLESRs from 15.0 to 12.0 for 3 h (p < 0.05). The proportion of terminating events of TLESRs was significantly different between the 2 groups (p < 0.05). No events and swallowing terminated more TLESRs with ONO-8539 than with placebo.

1215,30824364,Tuberculosis case detection by trained inmate peer educators in a resource-limited prison setting in Ethiopia: a cluster-randomised trial.,"BACKGROUND
To improve tuberculosis case detection, interventions that are feasible with available resources are needed. We investigated whether involving trained prison inmates in a tuberculosis control programme improved tuberculosis case detection, shortened pre-treatment symptom duration, and increased treatment success in a resource-limited prison setting in Ethiopia.
METHODS
In this cluster-randomised trial we randomly assigned prisons in the regions Amhara and Tigray of Ethiopia to an intervention group or a control group, after matching them into pairs based on their geographical proximity and size. Larger prisons were considered eligible whereas smaller prisons were excluded. We selected three to six prison inmates in each intervention prison. The recruited prison inmates who received a 3-day training course and were capable of identifying presumptive tuberculosis cases then provided health education to all other prison inmates about tuberculosis prevention and control every 2 weeks for 1 year. They also actively searched for symptomatic prison inmates and undertook routine symptom-based tuberculosis screening. The control prisons followed the existing passive case finding system. The primary outcome was the mean case detection rate at the end of the year, measured at cluster (prison) level. This trial is registered at ClinicalTrials.gov, number NCT02744521.
FINDINGS
We randomly assigned 16 prisons with a total population of 18 032 inmates to either the intervention group (n=8) or the control group (n=8) from April 1, 2016, to March 31, 2017. During the 1-year study period, 75 new tuberculosis cases (1% of 8874 total inmates) were detected in the intervention prisons and 25 new cases (<1% of 9158 total inmates) were detected in the control prisons. The mean case detection rate was significantly higher in the intervention group than in the control group (mean difference 52·9 percentage points, 95% CI 17·5-88·3, p=0·010).
INTERPRETATION
Involving trained inmate peer educators in the tuberculosis control programme in Ethiopian prisons significantly improved the tuberculosis case detection rate. The findings have important implications for clinical and public health policy, particularly in prisons of low-income countries where tuberculosis burden is high and the recommended tuberculosis diagnostic and treatment algorithms have generally not been implemented.

1216,30185793,Individual and combined effects of acute delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol and cannabidiol on psychotomimetic symptoms and memory function.,"The main active ingredient in cannabis, delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), can acutely induce psychotic symptoms and impair episodic and working memory. Another major constituent, cannabidiol (CBD), may attenuate these effects. This study aimed to determine the effects of THC and CBD, both alone and in combination on psychotic symptoms and memory function. A randomised, double-blind crossover design compared the effects of (i) placebo, (ii) THC 8 mg, (iii) CBD 16 mg and (iv) THC 8 mg + CBD 16 mg administered by inhalation through a vaporiser. Using an experimental medicine approach to predict treatment sensitivity, we selected 48 cannabis users from the community on the basis of (1) schizotypal personality questionnaire scores (low, high) and (2) frequency of cannabis use (light, heavy). The Brief Psychiatric Rating Scale (BPRS), Psychotomimetic States Inventory (PSI), immediate and delayed prose recall (episodic memory), 1- and 2-back (working memory) were assessed on each day. Results indicated that THC increased overall scores on the PSI, negative symptoms on BPRS, and robustly impaired episodic and working memory. Co-administration of CBD did not attenuate these effects. CBD alone reduced PSI scores in light users only. At a ratio of 2:1, CBD does not attenuate the acute psychotic and memory impairing effects of vaporised THC.

1217,30858014,"An environmental cleaning bundle and health-care-associated infections in hospitals (REACH): a multicentre, randomised trial.","BACKGROUND
The hospital environment is a reservoir for the transmission of microorganisms. The effect of improved cleaning on patient-centred outcomes remains unclear. We aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of an environmental cleaning bundle to reduce health care-associated infections in hospitals.
METHODS
The REACH study was a pragmatic, multicentre, randomised trial done in 11 acute care hospitals in Australia. Eligible hospitals had an intensive care unit, were classified by the National Health Performance Authority as a major hospital (public hospitals) or having more than 200 inpatient beds (private hospitals), and had a health-care-associated infection surveillance programme. The stepped-wedge design meant intervention periods varied from 20 weeks to 50 weeks. We introduced the REACH cleaning bundle, a multimodal intervention, focusing on optimising product use, technique, staff training, auditing with feedback, and communication, for routine cleaning. The primary outcomes were incidences of health-care-associated Staphylococcus aureus bacteraemia, Clostridium difficile infection, and vancomycin-resistant enterococci infection. The secondary outcome was the thoroughness of cleaning of frequent touch points, assessed by a fluorescent marking gel. This study is registered with the Australian and New Zealand Clinical Trial Registry, number ACTRN12615000325505.
FINDINGS
Between May 9, 2016, and July 30, 2017, we implemented the cleaning bundle in 11 hospitals. In the pre-intervention phase, there were 230 cases of vancomycin-resistant enterococci infection, 362 of S aureus bacteraemia, and 968 C difficile infections, for 3 534 439 occupied bed-days. During intervention, there were 50 cases of vancomycin-resistant enterococci infection, 109 of S aureus bacteraemia, and 278 C difficile infections, for 1 267 134 occupied bed-days. After the intervention, vancomycin-resistant enterococci infections reduced from 0·35 to 0·22 per 10 000 occupied bed-days (relative risk 0·63, 95% CI 0·41-0·97, p=0·0340). The incidences of S aureus bacteraemia (0·97 to 0·80 per 10 000 occupied bed-days; 0·82, 0·60-1·12, p=0·2180) and C difficile infections (2·34 to 2·52 per 10 000 occupied bed-days; 1·07, 0·88-1·30, p=0·4655) did not change significantly. The intervention increased the percentage of frequent touch points cleaned in bathrooms from 55% to 76% (odds ratio 2·07, 1·83-2·34, p<0·0001) and bedrooms from 64% to 86% (1·87, 1·68-2·09, p<0·0001).

1218,30859185,Pharmacokinetics of ascending doses of ivermectin in Trichuris trichiura-infected children aged 2-12 years.,"BACKGROUND
Yearly, millions of children are treated globally with ivermectin mainly for neglected tropical diseases. Anatomical, physiological and biochemical differences between children and adults may result in changes in pharmacokinetics. However, paediatric pharmacokinetic data of ivermectin are lacking.
METHODS
In the framework of a randomized controlled dose-finding trial in rural Côte d'Ivoire, Trichuris trichiura-infected pre-school-aged children (PSAC, 2-5 years) and school-aged children (SAC, 6-12 years) were assigned to 100 or 200 μg/kg and 200, 400 or 600 μg/kg ivermectin, respectively (ISRCTN registry no. ISRCTN15871729). Capillary blood was collected on dried blood spot cards until 72 h post-treatment. Ivermectin was quantified by LC-MS/MS, and pharmacokinetic parameters were evaluated by non-compartmental analysis.
RESULTS
C max and AUC increased in PSAC and SAC with ascending doses and were similar in both age groups when the current standard dose (200 μg/kg) was administered (∼23 ng/mL and ∼350 ng×h/mL, respectively). PSAC with lower BMI were associated with significantly higher AUCs. AUC and Cmax were ∼2-fold lower in children compared with parameters previously studied in adults, whereas body weight-adjusted CL/F (∼0.35 L/h/kg) was significantly higher in children. Tmax (∼6 h), t1/2 (∼18 h), mean residence time (MRTINF) (∼28 h) and V/F (∼8 L/kg) were similar in all paediatric treatment arms.
CONCLUSIONS
A positive association of AUC or Cmax with dose was observed in both age groups. Undernutrition might influence the AUC of ivermectin in PSAC. Ivermectin shows a lower exposure profile in children compared with adults, highlighting the need to establish dosing recommendations for different age groups.",2019,"RESULTS

1219,30864528,Investigation of the Roles of New Antiepileptic Drugs and Serum BDNF Levels in Efficacy and Safety Monitoring and Quality of Life: A Clinical Research.,"OBJECTIVE
We aimed to determine the therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) features and the relation to Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF) of frequently used new antiepileptic drugs (NADs) including lamotrigine (LTG), oxcarbazepine (OXC), zonisamide (ZNS) and lacosamide (LCM). Moreover, we investigated their effect on the quality of life (QoL).
METHODS
Eighty epileptic patients who had been using the NADs, and thirteen healthy participants were included in this cross-sectional study. The participants were randomized into groups. The QOLIE-31 test was used for the assessment of QoL. We also prepared and applied ""Safety Test"". HPLC method for TDM, and ELISA method for BDNF measurements were used consecutively.
RESULTS
In comparison to healthy participants, epileptic participants had lower marriage rate (p=0.049), education level (p˂0.001), alcohol use (p=0.002). BDNF levels were higher in patients with focal epilepsy (p=0.013) and in those with higher education level (p=0.016). There were negative correlations between serum BDNF levels and serum ZNS levels (p=0.042) with LTGpolytherapy, serum MHD levels (a 10-monohydroxy derivative of OXC, p=0.041) with OXCmonotherapy. There was no difference in BDNF according to monotherapy-polytherapy, drugresistant groups, regarding seizure frequency. There was a positive correlation between total health status and QoL (p˂0.001). QOLIE-31 overall score (OS) was higher in those with OXCmonotherapy (76.5±14.5). OS (p˂0.001), seizure worry (SW, p=0.004), cognition (C, p˂0.001), social function (SF, p˂0.001) were different in the main groups. Forgetfulness was the most common unwanted effect.
CONCLUSION

1220,30820517,Effect of Creatine Supplementation Dosing Strategies on Aging Muscle Performance.,"OBJECTIVE
This study compared the effects of different creatine supplementation dosages, independent of resistance training, on aging muscle performance and functionality.
DESIGN AND PARTICIPANTS
Using a double-blind, repeated measures design, participants were randomized to one of three groups: Creatine-High (CR-H; n=11; 0.3 g/kg/day of creatine + 0.1 g/kg/day of maltodextrin), Creatine-Moderate (CR-M: n=11; 0.1 g/kg/day of creatine + 0.3 g/kg/day of maltodextrin) or Placebo (PLA; n=11; 0.4 g/kg/day of maltodextrin) for 10 consecutive days.
MEASUREMENTS
The primary dependent variables measured at baseline and after supplementation included muscle strength (1-repetition maximum leg press, chest press, hand-grip), muscle endurance (leg press and chest press; maximal number of repetitions performed for 1 set at 80% and 70% baseline 1-repetition maximum respectively), and physical performance (dynamic balance).
RESULTS
There was a significant increase over time for muscle strength (Leg press: CR-H pre 161.5 ± 55.1 kg, post 169.2 ± 59.2 kg; CR-M pre 145.2 ± 47.7 kg, post 151.7 ± 45.0 kg; PLA pre 163.7 ± 51.5 kg, post 178.2 ± 65.6 kg, p = 0.001; Chest press: CR-H pre 57.0 ± 26.2 kg, post 58.8 ± 28.0 kg; CR-M pre 54.5 ± 27.9 kg, post 56.8 ± 30.1 kg; PLA pre 55.1 ± 26.9 kg, post 58.5 ± 30.1 kg, p = 0.001) and endurance (Leg press: CR-H pre 17.1 ± 6.0 reps, post 21.0 ± 7.2 reps; CR-M pre 24.1 ± 11.6 reps, post 29.1 ± 17.0 reps; PLA pre 23.8 ± 9.7 reps, post 29.5 ± 11.9 reps, p = 0. 001; Chest press: CR-H pre 15.6 ± 2.7 reps, post 18.9 ± 2.7 reps; CR-M pre 18.0 ± 5.0 reps, post 19.9 ± 7.1 reps; PLA pre 20.5 ± 6.2 reps, post 21.6 ± 5.5 reps, p = 0. 001), with no other differences.

1221,29659963,Saturated Fats from Butter but Not from Cheese Increase HDL-Mediated Cholesterol Efflux Capacity from J774 Macrophages in Men and Women with Abdominal Obesity.,"Background
Recent evidence suggests that the association between dietary saturated fatty acids (SFAs) and coronary artery disease risk varies according to food sources. How SFAs from butter and cheese influence HDL-mediated cholesterol efflux capacity (CEC), a key process in reverse cholesterol transport, is currently unknown.
Objective
In a predefined secondary analysis of a previously published trial, we have examined how diets rich in SFAs from either cheese or butter influence HDL-mediated CEC, compared with diets rich in either monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFAs) or polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs).
Methods
In a randomized crossover controlled consumption trial, 46 men and women with abdominal obesity consumed 5 isocaloric diets, each for 4 wk. Two diets were rich in SFAs either from cheese (CHEESE) or butter (BUTTER) [12.4-12.6% of energy (%E) as SFAs, 32%E as fat, 52%E as carbohydrates]. In 2 other diets, SFAs (5.8%E) were replaced with either MUFAs from refined olive oil (MUFA) or PUFAs from corn oil (PUFA). Finally, a lower fat and carbohydrate diet was used as a control (5.8%E as SFAs, 25.0%E as fat, 59%E as carbohydrates; CHO). Post-diet HDL-mediated CEC was determined ex vivo using radiolabelled J774 macrophages incubated with apolipoprotein B-depleted serum from the participants.
Results
Mean (±SD) age was 41.4 ± 14.2 y, and waist circumference was 107.6 ± 11.5 cm in men and 94.3 ± 12.4 cm in women. BUTTER and MUFA increased HDL-mediated CEC compared with CHEESE (+4.3%, P = 0.026 and +4.7%, P = 0.031, respectively). Exploring the significant diet × sex interaction (P = 0.044) revealed that the increase in HDL-mediated CEC after BUTTER compared with CHEESE was significant among men (+6.0%, P = 0.047) but not women (+2.9%, P = 0.19), whereas the increase after MUFA compared with CHEESE was significant among women (+9.1%, P = 0.008) but not men (-0.6%, P = 0.99).
Conclusion
These results provide evidence of a food matrix effect modulating the impact of dairy SFAs on HDL-mediated CEC with potential sex-related differences that deserve further investigation.

Carnitine insufficiency is responsible for various co-morbid conditions in maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients. L-carnitine supplementation is expected to improve the quality of life (QoL) of patients on MHD.
AIMS
To study the effect of L-carnitine supplementation on QoL of Indian patients on MHD.
SETTING AND DESIGN
This was a single (patient) blind, randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trial conducted on patients on MHD attending hemodialysis unit of the study center.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
Twenty patients on MHD suffering from hemodialysis-related symptoms were randomly assigned to receive intravenous L-carnitine 20 mg/kg or placebo after every dialysis session for 8 weeks. SF36 (Short Form with 36 questions) score for QoL, laboratory investigations and dialysis related symptoms were recorded at baseline and after 8 weeks. Improvement in QoL, laboratory parameters and dialysis related symptoms in the two groups after 8 weeks was compared.
STATISTICAL ANALYSIS USED
Depending on normality of data, unpaired T test or Mann Whitney U test was used for comparison of change (8 weeks-baseline) in SF36 scores and laboratory parameters observed in the two groups.
RESULTS
L-carnitine supplementation increased total SF36 score by 18.29 +/- 12.71 (95% CI: 10.41 to 26) while placebo resulted in reduction in total SF36 score by 6.4 +/- 16.39 (95% CI: -16.59 to 3.73). L-carnitine also resulted in significant increase in hemoglobin and serum albumin and decrease in serum creatinine as compared to placebo. More patients were relieved of dialysis related symptoms in L-carnitine group.

1224,30851861,The iCook 4-H Study: An Intervention and Dissemination Test of a Youth/Adult Out-of-School Program.,"OBJECTIVE
To describe outcomes from intervention and dissemination of iCook 4-H.
DESIGN
Five-state, community-based participatory research and a randomized, controlled trial followed by a 5-state, nonrandomized dissemination test of the iCook 4-H curriculum with control and treatment groups.
SETTING
Community and university sites.
PARTICIPANTS
Youths aged 9-10 years and their adult food preparer; 228 dyads in the intervention and 74 dyads in dissemination.
INTERVENTION(S)
Theoretical frameworks were Social Cognitive Theory and the experiential 4-H learning model. Six 2-hour, biweekly sessions on cooking, eating, and playing together followed by monthly newsletters and boosters until 24 months, expanded to 8 sessions for dissemination.
MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE(S)
Youth body mass index (BMI) z-scores, measured height and weight, and youth/adult program outcome evaluations surveys.
ANALYSIS
Linear mixed models, group, time, and group × time interaction for BMI z-score and program outcomes changes. Significance levels = P ≤ .05; interaction term significance = P ≤ .10.
RESULTS
In intervention, treatment BMI z-scores increased compared with controls based on significant interaction (P = .04). For odds of being overweight or obese at 24 months, there was no significant interaction (P = .18). In dissemination, based on significant interaction, treatment youths increased cooking skills (P = .03) and treatment adults increased cooking together (P = .08) and eating together (P = .08) compared with controls.
CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS
iCook 4-H program outcomes were positive for mealtime activities of cooking and eating together. The program can be successfully implemented by community educators. The increase in BMI z-scores needs further evaluation for youths in cooking programs.",2019,"In dissemination, based on significant interaction, treatment youths increased cooking skills (P = .03) and treatment adults increased cooking together (P = .08) and eating together (P = .08) compared with controls.

1225,30861694,Different exercise modalities exert opposite acute effects on short-term blood pressure variability in male patients with hypertension.,"BACKGROUND
The aim of this study was to compare the acute effects produced by a single bout of three different exercise modalities on short-term blood pressure variability.
METHODS
The study enrolled 21 sedentary male patients with hypertension and a mean age of 63 ± 7.2 years. Blood pressure variability was evaluated through ambulatory blood pressure monitoring that was performed twice: during an ordinary daily activity and after an exercise session lasting 60 minutes. Patients were divided into three groups according to the different exercise modality performed during the session: aerobic continuous training, interval training or combined training including aerobic and resistance training.
RESULTS
Twenty-four-hour systolic blood pressure variability increased in the interval training group, was unchanged in the aerobic continuous training group and decreased in the combined training group (intergroup P = 0.03). Daytime systolic blood pressure variability increased in the interval training and aerobic continuous training groups while it decreased in the combined training group (intergroup P = 0.0006). Twenty-four-hour diastolic blood pressure variability decreased in the aerobic continuous training and combined training groups while it increased in the interval training group (intergroup P = 0.002).
CONCLUSION
Different training modalities have similar hypotensive action but exert different acute effects on blood pressure variability. Combined training seems to be the most suitable training modality for sedentary men with hypertension.",2019,Daytime systolic blood pressure variability increased in the interval training and aerobic continuous training groups while it decreased in the combined training group (intergroup P = 0.0006).,"['male patients with hypertension', '21 sedentary male patients with hypertension and a mean age of 63\u2009±\u20097.2 years', 'sedentary men with hypertension']","['aerobic continuous training, interval training or combined training including aerobic and resistance training']","['Daytime systolic blood pressure variability', 'systolic blood pressure variability', 'Blood pressure variability', 'blood pressure variability', 'diastolic blood pressure variability']","[{'cui': 'C0086582', 'cui_str': 'Males'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C2363982', 'cui_str': 'Hypertension (SMQ)'}, {'cui': 'C0205254', 'cui_str': 'Inactive (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0444504', 'cui_str': 'Mean (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0001792', 'cui_str': 'Elderly'}, {'cui': 'C4517857', 'cui_str': '7.2 (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0439234', 'cui_str': 'year (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0086418', 'cui_str': 'Humans'}]","[{'cui': 'C0549178', 'cui_str': 'Continuous (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0220931', 'cui_str': 'Functional training'}, {'cui': 'C1272706', 'cui_str': 'Interval'}, {'cui': 'C0336789', 'cui_str': 'Combine'}, {'cui': 'C0332257', 'cui_str': 'Including (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0872279', 'cui_str': 'Strength Training'}]","[{'cui': 'C0332169', 'cui_str': 'Daytime (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0871470', 'cui_str': 'Systolic Pressure'}, {'cui': 'C0005823', 'cui_str': 'Blood Pressure'}, {'cui': 'C1305849', 'cui_str': 'Blood pressure diastolic'}]",21.0,0.0147415,Daytime systolic blood pressure variability increased in the interval training and aerobic continuous training groups while it decreased in the combined training group (intergroup P = 0.0006).,"[{'ForeName': 'Giuseppe', 'Initials': 'G', 'LastName': 'Caminiti', 'Affiliation': '1 Department of Medical Sciences, IRCCS San Raffaele, Italy.'}, {'ForeName': 'Annalisa', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Mancuso', 'Affiliation': '1 Department of Medical Sciences, IRCCS San Raffaele, Italy.'}, {'ForeName': 'Ana Filipa', 'Initials': 'AF', 'LastName': 'Raposo', 'Affiliation': '2 Department of Internal Medicine, Hospital de Cascais, Dr Jose de Almeida, Cascais, Portugal.'}, {'ForeName': 'Chiara', 'Initials': 'C', 'LastName': 'Fossati', 'Affiliation': '3 Department of Movement, Human and Health Sciences, University of Rome ""Foro Italico"", Italy.'}, {'ForeName': 'Serena', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Selli', 'Affiliation': '1 Department of Medical Sciences, IRCCS San Raffaele, Italy.'}, {'ForeName': 'Maurizio', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Volterrani', 'Affiliation': '1 Department of Medical Sciences, IRCCS San Raffaele, Italy.'}]",European journal of preventive cardiology,['10.1177/2047487318819529']
1226,30833160,Immunogenicity and safety of measles-rubella vaccine co-administered with attenuated Japanese encephalitis SA 14-14-2 vaccine in infants aged 8 months in China: a non-inferiority randomised controlled trial.,"BACKGROUND
In China, measles-rubella vaccine and live attenuated SA 14-14-2 Japanese encephalitis vaccine (LJEV) are recommended for simultaneous administration at 8 months of age, which is the youngest recommended age for these vaccines worldwide. We aimed to assess the effect of the co-administration of these vaccines at 8 months of age on the immunogenicity of measles-rubella vaccine.
METHODS
We did a multicentre, open-label, non-inferiority, two-group randomised controlled trial in eight counties or districts in China. We recruited healthy infants aged 8 months who had received all scheduled vaccinations according to the national immunisation recommendations and who lived in the county of the study site. Enrolled infants were randomly assigned (1:1) to receive either measles-rubella vaccine and LJEV simultaneously (measles-rubella plus LJEV group) or measles-rubella vaccine alone (measles-rubella group). The primary outcome was the proportion of infants with IgG antibody seroconversion for measles 6 weeks after vaccination, and a secondary outcome was the proportion of infants with IgG antibody seroconversion for rubella 6 weeks after vaccination. Analyses included all infants who completed the study. We used a 5% margin to establish non-inferiority. This trial was registered at ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT02643433).
FINDINGS
1173 infants were assessed for eligibility between Aug 13, 2015, and June 10, 2016. Of 1093 (93%) enrolled infants, 545 were randomly assigned to the measles-rubella plus LJEV group and 548 to the measles-rubella group. Of the infants assigned to each group, 507 in the measles-rubella plus LJEV group and 506 in the measles-rubella group completed the study. Before vaccination, six (1%) of 507 infants in the measles-rubella plus LJEV group and one (<1%) of 506 in the measles-rubella group were seropositive for measles; eight (2%) infants in the measles-rubella plus LJEV group and two (<1%) in the measles-rubella group were seropositive for rubella. 6 weeks after vaccination, measles seroconversion in the measles-rubella plus LJEV group (496 [98%] of 507) was non-inferior to that in the measles-rubella group (499 [99%] of 506; difference -0·8% [90% CI -2·6 to 1·1]) and rubella seroconversion in the measles-rubella plus LJEV group (478 [94%] of 507) was non-inferior to that in the measles-rubella group (473 [94%] of 506 infants; difference 0·8% [90% CI -1·8 to 3·4]). There were no serious adverse events in either group and no evidence of a difference between the two groups in the prevalence of any local adverse event (redness, rashes, and pain) or systemic adverse event (fever, allergy, respiratory infections, diarrhoea, and vomiting). Fever was the most common adverse event (97 [19%] of 507 infants in the measles-rubella plus LJEV group; 108 [21%] of 506 infants in the measles-rubella group).
INTERPRETATION
The evidence of similar seroconversion and safety with co-administered LJEV and measles-rubella vaccines supports the co-administration of these vaccines to infants aged 8 months. These results will be important for measles and rubella elimination and the expansion of Japanese encephalitis vaccination in countries where it is endemic.

1227,30739837,Ten-year outcomes of survival and toxicity for a phase III randomised trial of concurrent chemoradiotherapy versus radiotherapy alone in stage II nasopharyngeal carcinoma.,"PURPOSE
Our previous results showed survival benefits of concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) in treating stage II nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) compared with radiotherapy (RT) alone. Here, we present the updated 10-year survival results and late toxicity profile to assess the ultimate effectiveness of concurrent chemotherapy.
METHODS
Patients with stage II NPC were randomly assigned to RT arm (n = 114) or to CCRT arm (n = 116) with a concurrent weekly cisplatin regimen. The primary end-point was overall survival (OS).
RESULTS
With a median follow-up of 125 months, significant improvements in OS (83.6% vs 65.8%, P = 0.001), progression-free survival (76.7% vs 64.0%, P = 0.014), cancer-specific survival (86.2% vs 71.9%, P = 0.002), distant-metastasis free survival (94.0% vs 83.3%, P = 0.007) were observed in CCRT arm. In point of locoregional-relapse free survival, the impact of CCRT was not remarkable. The findings were in accordance with our previous report. The survival benefits earned by CCRT mainly reflected in T2N1 population. Although CCRT brought more acute toxic effects (P = 0.001), as presented in previous report, the late toxicities and treatment-associated deaths events were comparable between two arms.
CONCLUSIONS
Ten-year outcomes confirmed that CCRT could improve the OS of stage II patients without adding late toxicities compared with conventional RT.",2019,"Although CCRT brought more acute toxic effects (P = 0.001), as presented in previous report, the late toxicities and treatment-associated deaths events were comparable between two arms.

1230,16062017,Evaluation of the efficacy of mifepristone/misoprostol and methotrexate/misoprostol for medical abortion.,"BACKGROUND
Unsafe abortion is a major cause of mortality among women in India accounting for 12% of all maternal deaths. In developing countries, annually, up to 200,000 women die of complications after illegal abortion. Medical abortion is potentially a simple and a safe method for use in developing countries. We conducted a prospective controlled trial to compare the efficacy of low-lose mifepristone and methotrexate for medical abortion.
OBJECTIVE
To find out the efficacy of low-dose mifepristone and methotrexate for inducing abortion.
METHOD
In this prospective clinical study, 100 women opted for a medical method of abortion. Out of these, 50 patients were given 50 mg/m2 of methotrexate intramuscularly followed by 800 micro gm of intravaginal misoprostol, and 50 patients were given 200 mg of mifepristone orally followed by 800 micro gm of intravaginal misoprostol.
MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES
Complete abortion was the principal outcome measure. Secondary outcome measures were side effects and acceptability data.
RESULTS
The rate of expulsion by first week after initiation of treatment was 58% in methotrexate and 98% in mifepristone group (P <0.001).
CONCLUSION
Low-dose mifepristone and intravaginal misoprostol is safe, effective, and well tolerated as compared to methotrexate and misoprostol.",2005,"The rate of expulsion by first week after initiation of treatment was 58% in methotrexate and 98% in mifepristone group (P <0.001).

1231,29078018,Cervical mucus removal prior to intrauterine insemination: a randomized trial.,"OBJECTIVE
To detect if removing the cervical mucus before performing intrauterine insemination (IUI) could improve pregnancy outcomes in patients with unexplained infertility.
DESIGN
Prospective randomized study.
SETTING
An Egyptian University Hospital.
POPULATION
Seven hundred and fourteen couples with unexplained infertility who underwent intrauterine insemination (IUI) with or without cervical mucus removal.
METHODS
Using computer-generated numbers, patients were randomly allocated to cervical-mucus-removal (removed from both internal and external os) or non-mucus-removal groups. Only participants were blinded as to group assignment.
MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES
The clinical pregnancy rate.
RESULTS
Of 714 IUI patients between November 2014 and March 2017, 361 were in the mucus removal group, and 353 in the non-mucus-removal group. Difficult catheterization was encountered in 17 cases out of 666 (2.6%) 12 in the cervical-mucus-removal group and five in the non-mucus-removal group). A total of 666 IUI cycles were completed while 48 were either cancelled or lost in their follow-up. The clinical pregnancy rate was significantly higher in the mucus-removal group [31.0% (n = 112)] than in the non-mucus-removal group [21.8% (n = 77); P = 0.005]. Ovarian hyperstimulation developed in 33 (4.6%) cases: 18 cervical mucus-removal and 15 non-mucus-removal. All except one were mild and managed with outpatient care.
CONCLUSIONS
Cervical mucus removal before IUI could improve pregnancy outcomes in women with unexplained infertility.

1232,30821897,A synbiotic supplement for inflammation and oxidative stress and lipid abnormalities in hemodialysis patients.,"INTRODUCTION
Among the most important risk factors for cardiovascular disease in hemodialysis patients are high concentrations of serum inflammation markers, lipid profiles, and oxidative stress. The present study aimed to investigate the effects of a synbiotic supplement on serum systemic inflammation, oxidative stress markers, and lipid profile in hemodialysis patients.
METHODS
Fifty hemodialysis patients were randomly allocated to synbiotic and placebo groups. The synbiotic group received 2 tablets per day of a synbiotic supplement (100 mg) Lactobacillus coagulans and fructo-oligosaccharides for 8 weeks; whereas the placebo group received a similar appearing placebo. At the beginning and end of the study, 5 mL blood was taken after 12-14 hours of fasting.
FINDINGS
Mean values of serum C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) and malondialdehyde (MDA) significantly decreased in the synbiotic group at the end compared to the beginning of the study (P = 0.01). This reduction was significant in comparison with changes in the placebo group (P = 0.01). The synbiotic supplement also reduced serum total cholesterol (P = 0.001) and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-c; P = 0.001) compared to the placebo group.
DISCUSSION
The synbiotic supplement used improves serum hs-CRP and MDA, total cholesterol and LDL-c in hemodialysis patients, which are known risk factors for cardiovascular disease.",2019,"The synbiotic supplement also reduced serum total cholesterol (P = 0.001) and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-c; P = 0.001) compared to the placebo group.

1233,30834652,"The effect of blood flow rate on dialysis recovery time in patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis: A prospective, parallel-group, randomized controlled trial.","INTRODUCTION
A majority of patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) on in-center hemodialysis (HD) require several hours to recover from an HD session. Patients and caregivers identify fatigue as a high priority for improvement. However, evidence for practical interventions to improve recovery time from conventional in-center HD is lacking. The effect of blood flow rate reduction on dialysis recovery time (DRT) is unknown.
METHODS
Multicenter, single-blinded, randomized, parallel-design controlled trial of blood flow rate reduction vs. usual care. One-hundred two patients with ESRD undergoing maintenance HD in 18 centers with baseline DRT of greater than 6 hours were included as subjects. The intervention was a blood flow rate reduction of 100 mL/min, to a minimum of 300 mL/min. The primary outcome was the between-group difference in change in DRT. Secondary outcomes were changes in London Evaluation of Illness (LEVIL) survey responses from baseline.
FINDINGS
Baseline median DRT was 720 (IQR 360-1013) minutes in controls and 720 (IQR 360-1106) minutes in the intervention group. DRT decreased in both groups. Mean change from baseline (95% confidence interval) at Week 4 in the study was -324 (-473, -175) minutes in the control group and -120 (-329, 90) minutes in the intervention group. The change from baseline was more profound in the control group (P = 0.05). Secondary outcomes of measures of quality of life reported on the LEVIL survey showed more improvement in patients' feelings of general well-being in the control group (P = 0.01). Differences between groups in pain, feeling washed out or drained, sleep quality, shortness of breath, and appetite were not statistically significant.
DISCUSSION
Blood flow rate reduction did not improve DRT over usual care. Though more work needs to be done to address patient-reported fatigue, a significant positive impact may not be achieved without substantial changes in dialysis prescription.",2019,"Differences between groups in pain, feeling washed out or drained, sleep quality, shortness of breath, and appetite were not statistically significant.

1234,30833068,"Peginterferon alfa-2a plus tenofovir disoproxil fumarate for hepatitis D (HIDIT-II): a randomised, placebo controlled, phase 2 trial.","BACKGROUND
Hepatitis D is the most severe form of chronic viral hepatitis. Treatment guidelines recommend 1 year of peginterferon alfa, which is effective in 25-30% of patients only. Whether prolonged therapy with peginterferon alfa-2a for 96 weeks and combination therapy with tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) would increase hepatitis D virus (HDV) RNA suppression is unknown. We aimed to explore whether prolonged treatment of HDV with 96 weeks of peginterferon would increase HDV RNA response rates and reduces post-treatment relapses.
METHODS
We did two parallel, investigator-initiated, multicentre, double-blind randomised, controlled trials at 14 study sites in Germany, Greece, Romania, and Turkey. Patients with chronic HDV infection and compensated liver disease who were aged 18 years or older were eligible for inclusion. All patients were HBsAg positive for at least 7 months, anti-HDV positive for at least 3 months, and HDV-RNA positive at the local laboratory at the screening visit. Patients were ineligible if alanine aminotransferase levels were higher than ten times above the upper limit of normal and if platelet counts were lower than 90 000 per μL, or if they had received interferon therapy or treatment with a nucleoside and nucleotide analogue within the preceding 6 months. Patients were randomly assigned by blinded stratified block randomisation (1:1) to receive 180 μg of peginterferon alfa-2a weekly plus either TDF (300 mg once daily) or placebo for 96 weeks. The primary endpoint was the percentage of patients with undetectable HDV RNA at the end of treatment assessed by intention to treat. The trials are registered as NCT00932971 and NCT01088659.
FINDINGS
Between June 24, 2009, and Feb 28, 2011, we randomly assigned 59 HDV RNA-positive patients to receive peginterferon alfa-2a plus TDF and 61 to receive peginterferon alfa-2a plus placebo, including 48 (40%) patients with cirrhosis to the two treatment groups (23 in the peginterferon alfa-2a plus TDF group and 25 in the peginterferon alfa-2a plus placebo group). The primary endpoint was achieved in 28 (48%) of 59 patients in the peginterferon alfa-2a plus TDF group and in 20 (33%) of 61 patients in the peginterferon alfa-2a plus placebo group (odds ratio 1·84, 95% CI 0·86-3·91, p=0·12). We recorded 944 adverse events (459 in the peginterferon alfa-2a plus TDF group and 485 in the peginterferon alfa-2a plus placebo group). The most common adverse events were haematological, behavioural (eg, fatigue), musculoskeletal, influenza-like syndromes, and psychiatric complaints.
INTERPRETATION
Addition of TDF resulted in no significant improvement in HDV RNA response rates at the end of treatment. These findings highlight that alternative treatment options are needed for hepatitis D.

1235,30784635,"Effect of a novel vital sign device on maternal mortality and morbidity in low-resource settings: a pragmatic, stepped-wedge, cluster-randomised controlled trial.","BACKGROUND
In 2015, an estimated 303 000 women died in pregnancy and childbirth. Obstetric haemorrhage, sepsis, and hypertensive disorders of pregnancy account for more than 50% of maternal deaths worldwide. There are effective treatments for these pregnancy complications, but they require early detection by measurement of vital signs and timely administration to save lives. The primary aim of this trial was to determine whether implementation of the CRADLE Vital Sign Alert and an education package into community and facility maternity care in low-resource settings could reduce a composite of all-cause maternal mortality or major morbidity (eclampsia and hysterectomy).
METHODS
We did a pragmatic, stepped-wedge, cluster-randomised controlled trial in ten clusters across Africa, India, and Haiti, introducing the device into routine maternity care. Each cluster contained at least one secondary or tertiary hospital and their main referral facilities. Clusters crossed over from existing routine care to the CRADLE intervention in one of nine steps at 2-monthly intervals, with CRADLE devices replacing existing equipment at the randomly allocated timepoint. A computer-generated randomly allocated sequence determined the order in which the clusters received the intervention. Because of the nature of the intervention, this trial was not masked. Data were gathered monthly, with 20 time periods of 1 month. The primary composite outcome was at least one of eclampsia, emergency hysterectomy, and maternal death. This study is registered with the ISRCTN registry, number ISRCTN41244132.
FINDINGS
Between April 1, 2016, and Nov 30, 2017, among 536 223 deliveries, the primary outcome occurred in 4067 women, with 998 maternal deaths, 2692 eclampsia cases, and 681 hysterectomies. There was an 8% decrease in the primary outcome from 79·4 per 10 000 deliveries pre-intervention to 72·8 per 10 000 deliveries post-intervention (odds ratio [OR] 0·92, 95% CI 0·86-0·97; p=0·0056). After planned adjustments for variation in event rates between and within clusters over time, the unexpected degree of variability meant we were unable to judge the benefit or harms of the intervention (OR 1·22, 95% CI 0·73-2·06; p=0·45).
INTERPRETATION
There was an absolute 8% reduction in primary outcome during the trial, with no change in resources or staffing, but this reduction could not be directly attributed to the intervention due to variability. We encountered unanticipated methodological challenges with this trial design, which can provide valuable learning for future research and inform the trial design of future international stepped-wedge trials.

1236,30784636,The effect of the Alive & Thrive initiative on exclusive breastfeeding in rural Burkina Faso: a repeated cross-sectional cluster randomised controlled trial.,"BACKGROUND
The benefits of exclusive breastfeeding on mortality, health, and development of children have been well documented. In Burkina Faso, the Alive & Thrive initiative combined interpersonal communication and community mobilisation activities with the aim of improving knowledge, beliefs, skills, and, ultimately, breastfeeding outcomes. The objective of this study was to determine the effect of the Alive & Thrive initiative on exclusive breastfeeding in Boucle du Mouhoun, Burkina Faso.
METHODS
We did a cluster-randomised trial with data collected with two independent, population-representative, cross-sectional surveys: a baseline survey done before the start of the initiative implementation and an endline survey done 2 years later. Rural villages in Boucle du Mouhoun, Burkina Faso, were randomly allocated by use of computer generated pseudo-random numbers, and women were eligible for participation if they had a livebirth in the 12 months preceding the survey and resided in a village selected for the study. The primary outcome was exclusive breastfeeding among infants younger than 6 months. Masking was not possible for the intervention implementation. All women who participated in the trial were included in the analysis population. The trial is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, number NCT02435524.
FINDINGS
Between June 2 and July 28, 2015, 2288 mothers participated in the baseline survey and between June 12 and July 25, 2017, 2253 mothers participated in the endline survey. At endline, there was a risk difference of 38·9% (95% CI 32·2-45·6, p<0·001) between the reported prevalence of exclusive breastfeeding in the intervention group and that of the control group.
INTERPRETATION
A multidimensional intervention deliverable at scale in a low-income setting resulted in substantial increases in mothers' optimal breastfeeding knowledge and beliefs and in reported exclusive breastfeeding practices. However, it is possible that the findings might have been influenced by social desirability bias.

1237,15985728,Indigenous recombinant streptokinase vs natural streptokinase in acute myocardial infarction patients: Phase III multicentric randomized double blind trial.,"BACKGROUND
Streptokinase is the most widely used thrombolytic agent and can now be made using recombinant DNA technology. The present trial was initiated to assess an indigenous recombinant streptokinase (Shankinase, r-SK).
AIM
To compare the efficacy and safety of indigenous recombinant streptokinase (Shankinase, r-SK) and natural streptokinase (Streptase, n-SK).
SETTINGS AND DESIGN
Double blind, randomized, non-inferiority, multicentric, parallel study.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
Patients of AMI < 6 hours of chest pain and 2 mm ST elevation in 2 contiguous chest leads V(1)-V(6) or 1 mm in limb leads were randomized to receive 1.5 miu of either r-SK or n-SK. CK Peaking and decrease of > or = 50% ST segment were used to assess reperfusion.
STATISTICAL ANALYSIS
Difference in the groups was assessed by chi-square or paired t test as required. Probability value < 0.05 was considered significant with 95% confidence interval.
RESULTS
Overall 150 patients were recruited (96 r-SK group and 54 in n-SK group) and demographic and clinical profile of the groups was comparable. Reperfusion was seen in 68.2% (58) and 69.4% (34) patients in r-SK and n-SK groups respectively. Commonly seen adverse events were fever in 7 (8.5%), hypotension in 3 (3.6%), nausea in 2 (2.4%) patients. Minor bleeding were seen in 4 (4.8%) of patients.

1238,30239113,Regional anesthesia with epinephrine-containing lidocaine reduces pericatheter bleeding after tunneled hemodialysis catheter placement.,"INTRODUCTION
Pericatheter bleeding (PB) following tunneled hemodialysis catheter (THC) placement is a common phenomenon. In addition to complicating securement of the THC, the PB may loosen the adhesive catheter dressing and delay wound healing. The primary aim of this study was to determine whether epinephrine-containing local anesthetics rather than plain ones reduce superficial PB after THC placement.
METHODS
The study was based on the retrospective analysis of the prospectively gathered data. Forty-six patients receiving local analgesia during THC placement were randomly assigned in a double-blind manner to two groups according to local anesthetic mixtures used (n =22 to prilocaine group [group 1]; n =24 to epinephrine-containing lidocaine group [group 2]). Presence or absence of PB after the THC placement was evaluated. Differences between groups with and without controlling other variables were statistically analyzed.
FINDINGS
Epinephrine-containing lidocaine (group 2) significantly reduced PB in comparison with prilocaine, P = 0.003. Use of epinephrine-containing lidocaine (group 2) was associated with a reduction in the likelihood of PB (Odds ratio = 0.017). Meanwhile, use of prilocaine (group 1) had 59.7 times higher odds in the likelihood of PB after THC placement. Lower rate of systolic blood pressure (SBP) in group 2 patients after 5 minutes of injections was also noted, P = 0.008. Epinephrine-containing lidocaine was well tolerated and caused no significant cardiovascular disturbance.

1239,30769227,Effects of adjuvant tamoxifen over three decades on breast cancer-free and distant recurrence-free interval among premenopausal women with oestrogen receptor-positive breast cancer randomised in the Swedish SBII:2pre trial.,"AIMS
The primary aim was to compare 2 years of adjuvant tamoxifen versus no systemic treatment in premenopausal patients with oestrogen receptor (ER)-positive tumours, regarding breast cancer-free interval (BCFi) and distant recurrence-free interval (D-RFi), with 30 years of follow-up and for specified intervals. Moreover, we aimed to investigate the effects of adjuvant tamoxifen on the incidence of secondary malignancies and survival after distant recurrence.
METHODS
Premenopausal patients with primary breast cancer were randomised to 2 years of tamoxifen (n = 277) or no systemic treatment (n = 287), irrespective of ER status. Information regarding events was collected by a review of medical records and from national registers.
RESULTS
The median follow-up for all patients without events was 28 years, and only four of the patients alive had a follow-up of <20 years. With 30 years of follow-up, tamoxifen prolonged BCFi in the intention-to-treat population (hazard ratio [HR] = 0.76, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.61-0.94, p = 0.011) compared with no treatment. In patients with ER-positive tumours (n = 362), tamoxifen prolonged BCFi (HR = 0.62, 95% CI 0.47-0.82, p = 0.001) and D-RFi (HR = 0.73, 95% CI 0.54-0.99, p = 0.043). The positive effect on BCFi was significant also for the interval >15-30 years (HR = 0.53, 95% CI 0.28-0.98, p = 0.042). For patients with ER-positive tumours who were diagnosed with distant recurrence (n = 165), survival after distant recurrence was shorter among tamoxifen-treated patients (median, 29 months versus 43 months). The incidence of contralateral breast cancer was 42% lower in the tamoxifen group (HR = 0.58, 95% CI 0.35-0.96, p = 0.035), whereas no differences were observed regarding other secondary malignancies.
CONCLUSIONS
With three decades of follow-up, 2 years of adjuvant tamoxifen reduced the incidence of breast cancer-related events and distant recurrence, and the carryover effect seems to extend beyond 15 years. Moreover, adjuvant tamoxifen seems to be associated with shorter survival after diagnosis of distant recurrence.",2019,"2 years of adjuvant tamoxifen reduced the incidence of breast cancer-related events and distant recurrence, and the carryover effect seems to extend beyond 15 years.","['premenopausal patients with oestrogen receptor (ER)-positive tumours, regarding breast cancer-free interval (BCFi) and distant recurrence-free interval (D-RFi), with 30 years of follow-up and for specified intervals', 'Premenopausal patients with primary breast cancer', 'premenopausal women with oestrogen receptor-positive breast cancer randomised in the Swedish SBII:2pre trial']","['tamoxifen (n\xa0=\xa0277) or no systemic treatment', 'tamoxifen', 'adjuvant tamoxifen']","['distant recurrence', 'survival after distant recurrence', 'breast cancer-free and distant recurrence-free interval', 'incidence of contralateral breast cancer', 'shorter survival', 'BCFi', 'incidence of breast cancer-related events and distant recurrence']","[{'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C1562312', 'cui_str': 'Estrogen receptor positive tumor'}, {'cui': 'C0006142', 'cui_str': 'Breast Cancer'}, {'cui': 'C1272706', 'cui_str': 'Interval'}, {'cui': 'C0443203', 'cui_str': 'Distant (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C2825055', 'cui_str': 'Recurrence'}, {'cui': 'C0439234', 'cui_str': 'year (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0589120', 'cui_str': 'Follow-up'}, {'cui': 'C0205369', 'cui_str': 'Specified'}, {'cui': 'C0439631', 'cui_str': 'Primary operation (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0043210', 'cui_str': 'Girls'}, {'cui': 'C2938924', 'cui_str': 'Oestrogen receptor positive breast cancer'}]","[{'cui': 'C0039286', 'cui_str': 'Tamoxifen'}, {'cui': 'C0205373', 'cui_str': 'Systemic (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0087111', 'cui_str': 'Therapy'}]","[{'cui': 'C0443203', 'cui_str': 'Distant (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C2825055', 'cui_str': 'Recurrence'}, {'cui': 'C0220921', 'cui_str': 'survival'}, {'cui': 'C0006142', 'cui_str': 'Breast Cancer'}, {'cui': 'C1272706', 'cui_str': 'Interval'}, {'cui': 'C0220856', 'cui_str': 'incidence'}, {'cui': 'C1096616', 'cui_str': 'Contralateral breast cancer'}, {'cui': 'C1806781', 'cui_str': 'Short (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0445223', 'cui_str': 'Related (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C0441471', 'cui_str': 'Event (event)'}]",,0.361185,"2 years of adjuvant tamoxifen reduced the incidence of breast cancer-related events and distant recurrence, and the carryover effect seems to extend beyond 15 years.","[{'ForeName': 'M', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Ekholm', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Oncology, Jönköping, Region Jönköping County, and Department of Clinical and Experimental Medicine, Linköping University, Linköping, Sweden; Department of Clinical Sciences Lund, Division of Oncology and Pathology, Lund University, Lund, Sweden.

1241,30815995,Microwave ablation vs. parathyroidectomy for secondary hyperparathyroidism in maintenance hemodialysis patients.,"INTRODUCTION
Secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) is a serious and common problem in patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis. Minimally invasive microwave ablation (MWA) has been used to treat SHPT and shows some advantages. However, its efficacy is still undefined. The primary purpose of this study was to determine the efficacy and safety of MWA compared to total parathyroidectomy plus forearm autotransplantation.
METHODS
The SHPT patients who were undergoing maintenance hemodialysis (follow-up for 6 to 24 months after treatments) were divided into a MWA group (n = 33) and a parathyroidectomy group (n = 48). The efficacy (serum intact parathyroid hormone [iPTH], calcium, and phosphorus levels) and safety (hoarseness, hypocalcaemia, and persistently low iPTH) were compared between the two groups. Additionally, the study explored potential predictors of response to MWA by a logistic regression analysis.
FINDINGS
There were no significant differences in baseline characteristics between the two groups. The rates of achieving the recommended goal for iPTH were significantly higher in the MWA group than that in the parathyroidectomy group at all follow-up times: 57.58% vs. 12.50% at one-day (P < 0.001), 45.45% vs. 16.67% at 1-week (P = 0.005), 57.58% vs. 16.67% at 2-week (P < 0.001), 57.58% vs. 22.92% at 1-month (P = 0.002), and 69.70% vs. 35.42% at 3-month (P = 0.002), 76.47% vs. 28.57% at 6-month (P = 0.005), 87.50% vs. 47.37% at 12-month (P = 0.008), and 81.82% vs. 52.63% at 24-month (P = 0.015), respectively. However, there were no significant differences for phosphorus or calcium at any of the follow-up times (P > 0.05). The persistently low iPTH was more in the parathyroidectomy group (64.6%) than that in the MWA group (0%) (P < 0.001), but there was no significant difference in hoarseness or hypocalcaemia (P > 0.05). Baseline levels of iPTH (P = 0.021) and patient age (P = 0.011) were determined as predictors by univariate logistic regression analysis.
CONCLUSION
The MWA could be an alternative to parathyroidectomy for SHPT but its eventual superiority has to be demonstrated by a proper study.",2019,"Baseline levels of iPTH (P = 0.021) and patient age (P = 0.011) were determined as predictors by univariate logistic regression analysis.

1242,30811543,Disseminating Tai Chi in the Community: Promoting Home Practice and Improving Balance.,"BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES
Falls among older adults is a pressing public health challenge. Considerable research documents that longer tai chi courses can reduce falls and improve balance. However, longer courses can be challenging to implement. Our goal was to evaluate whether a short 6-week modified tai chi course could be effective at reducing falls risk if older adults designed a personal home practice plan to receive a greater tai chi ""dose"" during the 6 weeks.
DESIGN
A 3-city wait-listed randomized trial was conducted. Habituation Intention and Social Cognitive Theories framed the ""coaching"" strategy by which participants designed practice plans. RE-AIM and Treatment Fidelity Frameworks were used to evaluate implementation and dissemination issues. Three advisory groups advised the study on intervention planning, implementation, and evaluation. To measure effectiveness, we used Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommended measures for falls risk including leg strength, balance, and mobility and gait. In addition, we measured balance confidence and executive function.
RESULTS
Program Implementation resulted in large class sizes, strong participant retention, high program fidelity and effectiveness. Participants reported practicing an average of 6 days a week and more than 25 min/day. Leg strength, tandem balance, mobility and gait, balance confidence, and executive function were significantly better for the experimental group than control group.
CONCLUSION
The tai chi short course resulted in substantial tai chi practice by older adults outside of class as well as better physical and executive function. The course reach, retention, fidelity, and implementation across 3 cities suggest strong potential for implementation and dissemination of the 6-week course.",2020,"Leg strength, tandem balance, mobility and gait, balance confidence, and executive function were significantly better for the experimental group than control group.

Sleep problems are common in children with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) and ADHD and impact adversely on child and parent well-being. The study evaluated the efficacy of a brief behavioral sleep intervention in children with comorbid ADHD-ASD.
METHOD
A subsample of children with ADHD-ASD ( n = 61; 5-13 years; 89% male) participating in the Sleeping Sound With ADHD study were included in the current investigation. The subsample comprised of 28 children randomized to the sleep intervention group, while 33 were randomized to usual clinical care. The intervention consisted of two clinical consultations and a follow-up phone call covering sleep hygiene and standardized behavioral strategies.
RESULTS
Children with ADHD-ASD who received the intervention had large improvements in sleep problems and moderate improvements in child behavioral functioning 3 and 6 months post-randomization.
CONCLUSION
These findings suggest that a brief behavioral sleep intervention can improve sleep problems in children with ADHD-ASD.",2019,"RESULTS

1244,31729825,Primary baerveldt versus trabeculectomy study after 5 years of follow-up.,"PURPOSE
Although the Baerveldt glaucoma implant (BGI) initially was reserved for refractory glaucoma, its role in the surgical management of glaucoma has shifted towards a primary treatment choice. We performed a randomized prospective study to compare BGI surgery and trabeculectomy (TE) in patients without previous ocular surgery.
METHODS
We included 119 glaucoma patients without previous ocular surgery. One eye of each subject was randomized to either a BGI or TE. Follow-up visits were at 1 day, 2 weeks, 6 weeks, 3 months, 6 months and 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 years postoperatively. Primary outcomes were intraocular pressure (IOP) and failure rate. Secondary outcomes were medication, anterior chamber laser flare value and complications.
RESULTS
After 5 years, an IOP of 12.7 ± 3.9 mmHg (mean ± SD) was achieved in the TE group and 12.9 ± 3.9 mmHg in the BGI group. We found no statistically significant difference in failure rate between the groups (p = 0.72). More BGI patients needed additional medication to control their IOP (85%; 1.9 ± 1.2 types of glaucoma medication) compared to the TE patients (57%; 0.5 ± 0.9 types of glaucoma medication). Diplopia was significantly more present in the BGI group than in the TE group (27% versus 4%; p < 0.001). The self-limiting complication rate was similar in both groups.
CONCLUSIONS
Our study demonstrates that, in the long term, the final IOP and failure rate are similar after TE and BGI surgery. However, the need for additional medication after BGI surgery is higher than after TE. Also, the increased risk of developing diplopia after BGI surgery must be taken into consideration.",2020,We found no statistically significant difference in failure rate between the groups (p = 0.72).,"['patients without previous ocular surgery', '119 glaucoma patients without previous ocular surgery']","['BGI or TE', 'BGI surgery and trabeculectomy (TE']","['medication, anterior chamber laser flare value and complications', 'Diplopia', 'self-limiting complication rate', 'intraocular pressure (IOP) and failure rate', 'failure rate', 'final IOP and failure rate']","[{'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C0205156', 'cui_str': 'Previous (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C1705869', 'cui_str': 'Ophthalmic surgery (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C2242746', 'cui_str': 'Glaucoma (SMQ)'}]","[{'cui': 'C1274039', 'cui_str': 'Surgery'}, {'cui': 'C3263686', 'cui_str': 'Ocular trabeculectomy'}]","[{'cui': 'C0003151', 'cui_str': 'Anterior Chamber'}, {'cui': 'C0023089', 'cui_str': 'Lasers'}, {'cui': 'C1273875', 'cui_str': 'Values (community)'}, {'cui': 'C0009566', 'cui_str': 'Complication (disorder)'}, {'cui': 'C0012569', 'cui_str': 'Double Vision'}, {'cui': 'C0036588', 'cui_str': 'Self'}, {'cui': 'C0439801', 'cui_str': 'Limited (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0021888', 'cui_str': 'Ocular Tension'}, {'cui': 'C0231174', 'cui_str': 'Failure (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C0205088', 'cui_str': 'End-stage (qualifier value)'}]",119.0,0.0647951,We found no statistically significant difference in failure rate between the groups (p = 0.72).,"[{'ForeName': 'Esma', 'Initials': 'E', 'LastName': 'Islamaj', 'Affiliation': 'Rotterdam Eye Hospital, Rotterdam Ophthalmic Institute, Rotterdam, The Netherlands.'}, {'ForeName': 'René J', 'Initials': 'RJ', 'LastName': 'Wubbels', 'Affiliation': 'Rotterdam Eye Hospital, Rotterdam Ophthalmic Institute, Rotterdam, The Netherlands.'}, {'ForeName': 'Peter W T', 'Initials': 'PWT', 'LastName': 'de Waard', 'Affiliation': 'Glaucoma Department, Rotterdam Eye Hospital, Rotterdam, The Netherlands.'}]",Acta ophthalmologica,['10.1111/aos.14265']

1246,30799142,Effect of Novartis Access on availability and price of non-communicable disease medicines in Kenya: a cluster-randomised controlled trial.,"BACKGROUND
Novartis Access is a Novartis programme that offers a portfolio of non-communicable disease medicines at a wholesale price of US$1 per treatment per month in low-income and middle-income countries. We evaluated the effect of Novartis Access in Kenya, the first country to receive the programme.
METHODS
We did a cluster-randomised controlled trial in eight counties in Kenya. Counties (clusters) were randomly assigned to the intervention or the control group with a covariate-constrained randomisation procedure that maximised balance on a set of demographic and health variables. In intervention counties, public and non-profit health facilities were allowed to purchase Novartis Access medicines from the Mission for Essential Drugs and Supplies (MEDS). Data were collected from all facilities served by MEDS and a sample of households in study counties. Households were eligible if they had at least one adult patient who had been diagnosed and prescribed medicines for one of the non-communicable diseases targeted by the programme: hypertension, heart failure, dyslipidaemia, type 2 diabetes, asthma, or breast cancer. Primary outcomes were availability and price of portfolio medicines at health facilities, irrespective of brand; and availability of medicines at patient households. Impacts were estimated with intention-to-treat analysis. This trial is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT02773095).
FINDINGS
On March 8, 2016, we randomly assigned eight clusters to intervention (four clusters; 74 health facilities; 342 patients) or control (four clusters; 63 health facilities; 297 patients). 69 intervention and 58 control health facilities, and 306 intervention and 265 control patients were evaluated after a 15 month intervention period (last visit February 28, 2018). Novartis Access significantly increased the availability of amlodipine (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] 2·84, 95% CI 1·10 to 7·37; p=0·031) and metformin (aOR 4·78, 95% CI 1·44 to 15·86; p=0·011) at health facilities, but did not affect the availability of portfolio medicines overall (adjusted β [aβ] 0·05, 95% CI -0·01 to 0·10; p=0·096) or their price (aβ 0·48, 95% CI -1·12 to 0·72; p=0·500). The programme did not affect medicine availability at patient households (aOR 0·83, 95% CI 0·44 to 1·57; p=0·569).
INTERPRETATION
Novartis Access had little effect in its first year in Kenya. Access programmes operate within complex health systems and reducing the wholesale price of medicines might not always or immediately translate to improved patient access. The evidence generated by this study will inform Novartis's efforts to improve their programme going forward. The study also contributes to the public evidence base on strategies for improving access to medicines globally.

1247,31736269,Aqueous humour cytokine changes during a loading phase of intravitreal ranibizumab or dexamethasone implant in diabetic macular oedema.,"PURPOSE
To determine the effect of intravitreal ranibizumab and a dexamethasone implant on aqueous humour cytokine, protein and enzyme levels and to correlate findings to morphologic and functional changes.
METHODS
In a prospective, randomized, controlled, double-blind study, patients with clinically significant diabetic macular oedema (CSME) were randomly allocated to receive either monthly intravitreal injections of ranibizumab (Lucentis, Novartis Pharma) or a single dexamethasone implant (Ozurdex, Pharm-Allergan) at baseline (BL). Aqueous humour samples were collected at BL and weeks 2, 8 and 20.
RESULTS
The study included 18 eyes of 18 patients. In the dexamethasone implant group, soluble intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (sICAM-1) (weeks 2 and 8), CXCL9/monokine induced by gamma interferon (MIG) (weeks 2 and 8), soluble vascular cell adhesion protein 1 (sVCAM-1) (weeks 2 and 8) and monocyte chemo-attractant protein 1 (MCP-1) (week 2) levels were significantly decreased compared with baseline. In the ranibizumab group, placental growth factor (PIGF) (week 2) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) (week 2 and 8) levels were significantly decreased compared with baseline. No significant changes in central retinal thickness (CRT) or Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) were observed in the Ozurdex group at any time-points. ETDRS scores significantly increased at week 20 (84.88 ± 8.88 letters) compared with baseline (74.78 ± 14.85 letters), and the CRT decreased significantly at week 4 (381.00 ± 114.64 μm) compared with baseline (440 ± 144 μm) in the Lucentis group.
CONCLUSION
The dexamethasone implant affected the aqueous cytokines and proteins MCP-1, sICAM-1, sVCAM-1 and MIG, whereas ranibizumab treatments reduced VEGF and PIGF levels. Morphological changes may diverge from cytokine changes. Results may indicate a rationale for a combination therapy for CSME using both agents, the dexamethasone implant and repeatedly administered ranibizumab injections.",2020,"In the dexamethasone implant group, soluble intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (sICAM-1) (weeks 2 and 8), CXCL9/monokine induced by gamma interferon (MIG) (weeks 2 and 8), soluble vascular cell adhesion protein 1","['diabetic macular oedema', '144\xa0μm) in the Lucentis group', '18 eyes of 18 patients', 'patients with clinically significant diabetic macular oedema (CSME']","['ranibizumab', 'ranibizumab (Lucentis, Novartis Pharma) or a single dexamethasone implant (Ozurdex, Pharm-Allergan) at baseline (BL', 'dexamethasone', 'dexamethasone implant', 'intravitreal ranibizumab']","['aqueous humour cytokine, protein and enzyme levels', 'placental growth factor (PIGF) (week 2) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF', 'aqueous cytokines and proteins MCP-1, sICAM-1, sVCAM-1 and MIG', 'CRT', 'ETDRS scores', 'central retinal thickness (CRT) or Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) best corrected visual acuity (BCVA', 'soluble vascular cell adhesion protein 1', 'VEGF and PIGF levels', 'soluble intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (sICAM-1']","[{'cui': 'C0730285', 'cui_str': 'Diabetic macular edema'}, {'cui': 'C1721374', 'cui_str': 'Lucentis'}, {'cui': 'C0439745', 'cui_str': 'Grouped (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0015392', 'cui_str': 'Eye'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C0730284', 'cui_str': 'Clinically significant macular edema (disorder)'}]","[{'cui': 'C1566537', 'cui_str': 'ranibizumab'}, {'cui': 'C1721374', 'cui_str': 'Lucentis'}, {'cui': 'C0205171', 'cui_str': 'Singular (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0011777', 'cui_str': 'Dexamethasone'}, {'cui': 'C2828363', 'cui_str': 'Implant'}, {'cui': 'C2702456', 'cui_str': 'Ozurdex'}]","[{'cui': 'C0003662', 'cui_str': 'Intraocular Fluid'}, {'cui': 'C0079189', 'cui_str': 'Cytokine (substance)'}, {'cui': 'C0033684', 'cui_str': 'Proteins'}, {'cui': 'C1287349', 'cui_str': 'Finding of enzyme level (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C0018284', 'cui_str': 'Growth factor (substance)'}, {'cui': 'C0439230', 'cui_str': 'week (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0078058', 'cui_str': 'Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor A'}, {'cui': 'C0449820', 'cui_str': 'Scores (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0205099', 'cui_str': 'Central (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0035331', 'cui_str': 'Retinal'}, {'cui': 'C1279919', 'cui_str': 'Early (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0087111', 'cui_str': 'Therapy'}, {'cui': 'C0011884', 'cui_str': 'Diabetic Retinopathy'}, {'cui': 'C0557651', 'cui_str': 'Study (environment)'}, {'cui': 'C1690532', 'cui_str': 'Best corrected visual acuity'}, {'cui': 'C0007577', 'cui_str': 'Cell Adhesion'}, {'cui': 'C0456079', 'cui_str': 'Level (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0063695', 'cui_str': 'CD54 Antigens'}]",,0.0854803,"In the dexamethasone implant group, soluble intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (sICAM-1) (weeks 2 and 8), CXCL9/monokine induced by gamma interferon (MIG) (weeks 2 and 8), soluble vascular cell adhesion protein 1","[{'ForeName': 'Dominika', 'Initials': 'D', 'LastName': 'Podkowinski', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Ophthalmology and Optometry, Kepler University Clinic, Linz, Austria.'}, {'ForeName': 'Eva', 'Initials': 'E', 'LastName': 'Orlowski-Wimmer', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Ophthalmology and Optometry, Kepler University Clinic, Linz, Austria.'}, {'ForeName': 'Gerhard', 'Initials': 'G', 'LastName': 'Zlabinger', 'Affiliation': 'Division of Clinical and Experimental Immunology, Institute of Immunology, Medical University Vienna, Vienna, Austria.'}, {'ForeName': 'Andreas', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Pollreisz', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Ophthalmology and Optometry, Medical University of Vienna, Vienna, Austria.'}, {'ForeName': 'Anna-Sophie', 'Initials': 'AS', 'LastName': 'Mursch-Edlmayr', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Ophthalmology and Optometry, Kepler University Clinic, Linz, Austria.'}, {'ForeName': 'Siegfried', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Mariacher', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Ophthalmology and Optometry, Kepler University Clinic, Linz, Austria.'}, {'ForeName': 'Michael', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Ring', 'Affiliation': 'Center for Medical Research, Johannes Kepler University, Linz, Austria.'}, {'ForeName': 'Matthias', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Bolz', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Ophthalmology and Optometry, Kepler University Clinic, Linz, Austria.'}]",Acta ophthalmologica,['10.1111/aos.14297']

METHODS AND RESULTS
A multistate Markov model was developed incorporating the primary efficacy and safety results from COLCOT, as well as healthcare costs and utilities from the Canadian healthcare system perspective. All components of the primary outcome, non-cardiovascular deaths, and pneumonia were included as health states in the model as both primary and recurrent events. In the main analysis, a deterministic approach was used to estimate the incremental cost-effectiveness ratio (ICER) for the trial period (24 months) and lifetime (20 years). Over the in-trial period, the addition of colchicine to post-MI standard-of-care treatment decreased the mean overall per patient costs by 47%, from $502 to $265 CAD, and increased the quality adjusted life years (QALYs) from 1.30 to 1.34. The lifetime per patient costs were further reduced (69%) and QALYs increased with colchicine therapy (from 8.82 to 11.68). As a result, both in-trial and lifetime ICERs indicated colchicine therapy was a dominant strategy.
CONCLUSION
Cost-effectiveness analyses indicate that the addition of colchicine to standard-of-care therapy after myocardial infarction is economically dominant and therefore generates cost savings.",2020,The lifetime per patient costs were further reduced (69%) and QALYs increased with colchicine therapy (from 8.82 to 11.68).,"['4745 patients enrolled within 30 days after myocardial infarction, low-dose', 'post-MI patients on standard-of-care therapy']","['colchicine therapy', 'low-dose colchicine therapy', 'Low-Dose Colchicine', 'placebo-controlled Colchicine', 'colchicine', 'placebo']","['lifetime per patient costs', 'mean overall per patient costs', 'cardiovascular death, resuscitated cardiac arrest, myocardial infarction (MI), stroke, or urgent hospitalization for angina leading to coronary revascularization', 'non-cardiovascular deaths, and pneumonia', 'Cost-Effectiveness', 'incremental cost-effectiveness ratio (ICER']","[{'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patient'}, {'cui': 'C0332173', 'cui_str': 'Daily'}, {'cui': 'C0027051', 'cui_str': 'Myocardial infarction'}, {'cui': 'C0445550', 'cui_str': 'Low dose'}, {'cui': 'C0687676', 'cui_str': 'After values'}, {'cui': 'C2936643', 'cui_str': 'Standards of Care'}, {'cui': 'C0013216', 'cui_str': 'Drug therapy'}]","[{'cui': 'C0009262', 'cui_str': 'Colchicine'}, {'cui': 'C0013216', 'cui_str': 'Drug therapy'}, {'cui': 'C0445550', 'cui_str': 'Low dose'}, {'cui': 'C0032042', 'cui_str': 'Sham Treatment'}, {'cui': 'C0009932', 'cui_str': 'Control Groups'}]","[{'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patient'}, {'cui': 'C0010186', 'cui_str': 'Cost'}, {'cui': 'C0444504', 'cui_str': 'Mean'}, {'cui': 'C0282416', 'cui_str': 'Overall'}, {'cui': 'C0007226', 'cui_str': 'Structure of cardiovascular system'}, {'cui': 'C0011065', 'cui_str': 'Death'}, {'cui': 'C2587207', 'cui_str': 'For resuscitation'}, {'cui': 'C0018790', 'cui_str': 'Cardiac arrest'}, {'cui': 'C0027051', 'cui_str': 'Myocardial infarction'}, {'cui': 'C0038454', 'cui_str': 'Cerebrovascular accident'}, {'cui': 'C0439609', 'cui_str': 'Urgent'}, {'cui': 'C0019993', 'cui_str': 'Inpatient care'}, {'cui': 'C0002962', 'cui_str': 'Angina pectoris'}, {'cui': 'C0023175', 'cui_str': 'Lead'}, {'cui': 'C0877341', 'cui_str': 'Coronary revascularisation'}, {'cui': 'C0032285', 'cui_str': 'Pneumonia'}, {'cui': 'C0010181', 'cui_str': 'Cost Effectiveness'}, {'cui': 'C0456603', 'cui_str': 'Ratio'}]",4745.0,0.209886,The lifetime per patient costs were further reduced (69%) and QALYs increased with colchicine therapy (from 8.82 to 11.68).,"[{'ForeName': 'Michelle', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Samuel', 'Affiliation': 'From the Montreal Heart Institute, Montreal, Canada.'}, {'ForeName': 'Jean-Claude', 'Initials': 'JC', 'LastName': 'Tardif', 'Affiliation': 'From the Montreal Heart Institute, Montreal, Canada.'}, {'ForeName': 'Paul', 'Initials': 'P', 'LastName': 'Khairy', 'Affiliation': 'From the Montreal Heart Institute, Montreal, Canada.'}, {'ForeName': 'François', 'Initials': 'F', 'LastName': 'Roubille', 'Affiliation': 'Université de Montpellier, INSERM, CNRS, CHU de Montpellier, France.'}, {'ForeName': 'David D', 'Initials': 'DD', 'LastName': 'Waters', 'Affiliation': 'San Francisco General Hospital, California.'}, {'ForeName': 'Jean C', 'Initials': 'JC', 'LastName': 'Grégoire', 'Affiliation': 'From the Montreal Heart Institute, Montreal, Canada.'}, {'ForeName': 'Fausto J', 'Initials': 'FJ', 'LastName': 'Pinto', 'Affiliation': 'Santa Maria University Hospital (CHULN);

1249,32407583,Proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation Improves Pain and Descending Mechanics among Elderly with Knee Osteoarthritis.,"PURPOSE
Knee osteoarthritis (KOA) is a common disease that causes pain and limits functionality in the elderly during daily activities, especially during stair descent. Proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF) practices promote multiple-plane joint movements, which relieve pain and increase joint range of motion (ROM). This study aims to examine the effects of a 12-week PNF intervention on pain relief, passive and active joint ROM, external knee adduction moment (KAM) and hip adduction moment (HAM) in the elderly with KOA during stair descent.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
Seventy-six elderly who were diagnosed with KOA were assessed for eligibility and, 36 of them met the inclusive criteria, were randomly divided into two groups: the twelve-week PNF intervention group and the control group. Pain score was measured by the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Arthritis Index (WOMAC). Passive joint ROM was measured using a goniometer. Active joint ROM, KAM, and HAM during stair descent were measured using a motion analysis system with a force platform. All the data were recorded at weeks 0, 6, and 12.
RESULTS
Compared to the control group, the PNF group showed a decreased pain score; increased passive hip, knee, and ankle ROM; a decreased minimum knee flexion angle, and increased HAM during stair descent.
PERSPECTIVE
PNF intervention is a successful method to relieve symptoms of KOA. It relieves pain without increasing KAM, enhances passive ROM, increases active knee flexion ROM, and increases HAM during stair descent in the elderly with KOA.",2020,"Compared to the control group, the PNF group showed a decreased pain score; increased passive hip, knee, and ankle ROM; a decreased minimum knee flexion angle, and increased HAM during stair descent.

Regenerative medicine using stem cell technology is an emerging field that is currently tested for inborn and acquired liver diseases.
OBJECTIVE
This phase I/II prospective, open label, multicenter, randomized trial aimed primarily at evaluating the safety of Heterologous Human Adult Liver-derived Progenitor Cells (HepaStem) in pediatric patients with urea cycle disorders (UCDs) or Crigler-Najjar (CN) syndrome 6 months posttransplantation. The secondary objective included the assessment of safety up to 12 months postinfusion and of preliminary efficacy.
METHODS
Fourteen patients with UCDs and 6 with CN syndrome were divided into 3 cohorts by body weight and intraportally infused with 3 doses of HepaStem. Clinical status, portal vein hemodynamics, morphology of the liver, de novo detection of circulating anti-human leukocyte antigen antibodies, and clinically significant adverse events (AEs) and serious adverse events to infusion were evaluated by using an intent-to-treat analysis.
RESULTS
The overall safety of HepaStem was confirmed. For the entire study period, patient-month incidence rate was 1.76 for the AEs and 0.21 for the serious adverse events, of which 38% occurred within 1 month postinfusion. There was a trend of higher events in UCD as compared with CN patients. Segmental left portal vein thrombosis occurred in 1 patient and intraluminal local transient thrombus in a second patient. The other AEs were in line with expectations for catheter placement, cell infusion, concomitant medications, age, and underlying diseases.
CONCLUSIONS
This study led to European clinical trial authorization for a phase II study in a homogeneous patient cohort, with repeated infusions and intermediate doses.",2019,"For the entire study period,

1251,30801548,Safety of Everolimus With Reduced Calcineurin Inhibitor Exposure in De Novo Kidney Transplants: An Analysis From the Randomized TRANSFORM Study.,"BACKGROUND
The safety profiles of standard therapy versus everolimus with reduced-exposure calcineurin inhibitor (CNI) therapy using contemporary protocols in de novo kidney transplant recipients have not been compared in detail.
METHODS
TRANSFORM was a randomized, international trial in which de novo kidney transplant patients were randomized to everolimus with reduced-exposure CNI (N = 1014) or mycophenolic acid (MPA) with standard-exposure CNI (N = 1012), both with induction and corticosteroids.
RESULTS
Within the safety population (everolimus 1014, MPA 1012), adverse events with a suspected relation to study drug occurred in 62.9% versus 59.2% of patients given everolimus or MPA, respectively (P = 0.085). Hyperlipidemia, interstitial lung disease, peripheral edema, proteinuria, stomatitis/mouth ulceration, thrombocytopenia, and wound healing complications were more frequent with everolimus, whereas diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, leukopenia, tremor, and insomnia were more frequent in the MPA group. The incidence of viral infections (17.2% versus 29.2%; P < 0.001), cytomegalovirus (CMV) infections (8.1% versus 20.1%; P < 0.001), CMV syndrome (13.6% versus 23.0%, P = 0.044), and BK virus (BKV) infections (4.3% versus 8.0%, P < 0.001) were less frequent with everolimus. CMV infection was less common with everolimus versus MPA after adjusting for prophylaxis therapy in the D+/R- subgroup (P < 0.001). Study drug was discontinued more frequently due to rejection or impaired healing with everolimus, and more often due to BKV infection or BKV nephropathy with MPA.
CONCLUSIONS

1252,30795958,Safety and efficacy of stopping tenofovir disoproxil fumarate in patients with chronic hepatitis B following at least 8 years of therapy: a prespecified follow-up analysis of two randomised trials.,"BACKGROUND
Effective and well tolerated nucleos(t)ide analogue treatment exists for patients with chronic hepatitis B, although treatment is generally anticipated to be life-long, with concomitant costs and treatment-related side-effects. We aimed to characterise the outcomes of patients with persistent viral suppression who discontinued nucleotide analogue use after extended treatment.
METHODS
The primary objective of this prespecified analysis was to evaluate the safety of stopping long-term tenofovir disoproxil fumarate therapy in patients enrolled in two (completed) randomised controlled studies, GS-US-174-0102 (ClinicalTrials.gov, number NCT00117676) and GS-US-174-0103 (ClinicalTrials.gov, number NCT00116805). In those studies, patients who had completed 8 years or more of nucleotide analogue treatment, were hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg)-positive with hepatitis B virus (HBV) DNA concentration of less than 29 IU/mL, and were unwilling or unable to continue therapy were required by protocol to enter a 24-week treatment-free follow-up (TFFU) phase. We present data for patients in the TFFU phase who were assessed at baseline and monitored every 4 weeks for changes in qualitative serum HBsAg, HBV DNA, and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) concentrations in addition to standard safety assessments.
FINDINGS
Of 124 patients who entered the TFFU phase, 54 (44%) patients did not complete 24 weeks of follow-up (median 12 weeks; IQR 0-20). Overall, 32 (26%) patients reported an adverse event. Serious adverse events occurred in five (4%) patients, including elevated ALT concentrations in two patients, hepatic flare in two patients, and increased lipase in one patient. 38 (31%) of patients had grade 3 or higher laboratory abnormalities, the majority of which were ALT elevations (36 patients). Of the 106 hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg)-negative patients who entered the TFFU phase, 63 (59%) were followed for 24 weeks. HBsAg loss was observed in five (5%) of the 106 HBeAg-negative patients who entered the TFFU phase, and 37 (35%) had both HBV DNA concentrations of less than 2000 IU/mL and ALT concentrations less than the ULN at TFFU week 24. 18 HBeAg-positive patients entered the TFFU phase, of whom seven (39%) were followed up for 24 weeks. Of these seven patients, none had HBsAg loss or HBV DNA of less than 2000 IU/mL and one (14%) had an ALT less than the ULN at week 24.
INTERPRETATION
Within 24 weeks of stopping 8 years or more of nucleotide analogue therapy almost a third of patients experienced a grade 3 or higher laboratory abnormality. Although few patients achieved HBsAg loss, a subgroup of HBeAg-negative patients can achieve a low-replicative state within a short duration of follow-up.

1253,32407535,Comparative Reactogenicity of Enhanced Influenza Vaccines in Older Adults.,"BACKGROUND
We analysed data from a randomized controlled trial on the reactogenicity of three enhanced influenza vaccines compared to standard-dose inactivated influenza vaccine.
METHODS
We enrolled community-dwelling older adults in Hong Kong, and randomly allocated them to receive 2017/18 northern hemisphere formulations of: standard-dose vaccine (FluQuadri, Sanofi Pasteur); MF59-adjuvanted vaccine (FLUAD, Seqirus); high-dose vaccine (Fluzone High Dose, Sanofi Pasteur); or recombinant-hemagglutinin vaccine (Flublok, Sanofi Pasteur). Local and systemic reactions were evaluated at Days 1, 3, 7 and 14 after vaccination.
RESULTS
Reported reactions were generally mild and short-lived. Systemic reactions occurred in similar proportions of participants by vaccine. Some local reactions were slightly more frequently reported among recipients of the MF59-adjuvanted vaccine and the high-dose vaccine compared to standard dose recipients. Participants reporting feverishness one day after vaccination had mean-fold-rises in post-vaccination hemagglutination inhibition titers that were 1.85-fold higher (95% CI: 1.01, 3.38) for A(H1N1) compared to those who did not report feverishness.
CONCLUSIONS

1255,30784637,"Integrating an early childhood development programme into Bangladeshi primary health-care services: an open-label, cluster-randomised controlled trial.","BACKGROUND
Poor development in young children in developing countries is a major problem. Child development experts are calling for interventions that aim to improve child development to be integrated into health services, but there are few robust evaluations of such programmes. Previous small Bangladeshi trials that used individual play sessions with mothers and their children (at home or in clinics), which were predominantly run by employed women, found moderate improvements on child development. We aimed to integrate an early childhood development programme into government clinics that provide primary health care and to evaluate the effects of this intervention on child cognition, language, and motor development, growth, and behaviour in a subsample of the children.
METHODS
In this open-label cluster-randomised controlled trial, we recruited individuals from community clinics in Narsingdi district, Bangladesh. These clinics were randomly selected from a larger sample of eligible clinics, and they were assigned (1:1) to either deliver an intervention of 25 sessions, in which mothers of eligible children were shown how to support their child's development through play and interactions, or to deliver no intervention (control group). Participants were underweight children, defined as a weight-for-age Z score of -2 SDs of the WHO standard, who were aged 5-24 months and who lived near the clinic (defined as a walk of less than 30 min). Government health workers ran these sessions at the clinics as part of their routine work, and mothers and children attended fortnightly in pairs (instead of individual weekly home visits that were specified in the original programme). A subsample of children from each clinic was randomly selected for impact evaluation, and these children were assessed on the Bayley Scales of Infant and Toddler Development for their cognitive, language, and motor performance and for their behaviour with Wolke's ratings, before and after implementation of the intervention. The primary outcomes were the performance of this evaluation subsample on the Bayley and Wolke scales and their anthropometric measurements (weight, length or height, and head circumference) after 1 year of the intervention. This study is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, number NCT02208531.
FINDINGS
Between Nov 29, 2014, and April 30, 2015, 12 054 children in 90 clinics were screened, and between six and 25 underweight children were enrolled from each clinic. From the 2423 (20%) underweight children, we excluded 656 (27%) children who lived more than 30-min walking distance from the community clinics, and 30 (1%) children whose mothers did not consent to participate. We therefore enrolled 1737 (72%) children from these 90 clinics. After randomisation, the control group clinics included 878 (51%) children (who all received no intervention) and the intervention group clinics included 859 (49%) children (who all received the child development programme sessions). Eight children from each clinic (360 [41%] children from the control group clinics and 358 [42%] children from the intervention group clinics) were randomly selected for inclusion in the evaluation subsample. Between Feb 24, 2016, and Sept 7, 2016, 344 (96%) children in control group clinics and 343 (96%) children in intervention group clinics were assessed for the primary outcome. 16 (5%) children in the control group clinics and 15 (4%) children in the intervention group clinics did not provide all data and were not included in final analyses. An intention-to-treat analysis showed that the intervention significantly improved children's cognition (effect size 1·3 SDs, 95% CI 1·1 to 1·5; p=0·006), language (1·1 SDs, 0·9 to 1·2; p=0·01), and motor composite scores (1·2 SDs, 1·0 to 1·3; p=0·006) and behaviour ratings (ranging from 0·7 SDs, 0·5 to 0·9; p=0·02; to 1·1 SDs, 1·0 to 1·2; p=0·007), but the intervention had no significant effect on growth (p values ranged from 0·05 to 0·74). Three (1%) children in the intervention group died, but their deaths were not related to the intervention.
INTERPRETATION
The extent and range of benefits of our intervention are encouraging. Health workers ran most of the sessions effectively and attendance was good, which is promising for scale-up of the intervention model. However, researchers trained and supervised the health workers, and the next step will be to determine whether the Bangladeshi ministry of health can perform these tasks. In future programmes, more attention needs to be paid to the nutrition of the children.

1256,30784638,Household contact investigation for the detection of tuberculosis in Vietnam: economic evaluation of a cluster-randomised trial.,"BACKGROUND
Active case finding is recommended as an important strategy to control tuberculosis, particularly in low-income and middle-income countries with a high prevalence of the disease. However, the costs and cost-effectiveness of active case finding are unclear due to the absence of evidence from randomised trials. We assessed the costs and cost-effectiveness of an active case finding strategy in Vietnam, where there is a high prevalence of tuberculosis.
METHODS
We conducted an economic evaluation alongside the Active Case Finding in Tuberculosis (ACT2) trial-a pragmatic cluster-randomised controlled trial in 70 districts across eight provinces of Vietnam. Patients aged 15 years and older with smear-positive pulmonary tuberculosis were recruited to the trial if they lived with one or more other household members. Household contacts were verbally invited to the clinic by the index patient with tuberculosis. ACT2 compared a combination of active and passive case finding with usual care (passive case finding) of household contacts of patients with tuberculosis from a health system perspective. Clustering occurred at the district and household level. Districts were the unit of randomisation, and we used minimisation to ensure balance of intervention and control districts within each province. In the intervention group, participants were invited to attend screening at baseline, 6 months, 12 months, and 24 months. We determined health-care costs with a standardised national costing survey and reported results in 2017 $US. The primary outcome of our study was disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) averted over a 24-month period. ACT2 was registered prospectively with the Australian and New Zealand Clinical Trials Registry, number ACTRN126.100.00600044.
FINDINGS
Between Aug 11, 2010, and Aug 11, 2015, 10 964 index patients and 25 707 household contacts completed the ACT2 study. There were 10 069 household contacts in the intervention group and 15 638 household contacts in the control group. The incremental cost-effectiveness ratio per DALY averted was $544 (330-1375).
INTERPRETATION
Active case finding was shown to be highly cost-effective in a setting with a high prevalence of tuberculosis. Investment in the wide-scale implementation of this programme in Vietnam should be strongly supported.

1257,31742849,Five-year results of a modified left atrial maze IV procedure in the treatment of atrial fibrillation: a randomized study.,"BACKGROUND
The left atrial maze IV (LAM-IV) alone has been used to eliminate atrial fibrillation (AF) without severe right heart diseases. However, we felt that it could be improved and developed a modified LAM-IV (MLAM-IV). In this prospective trial, we aimed to investigate 5-year clinical outcomes of AF in patients treated by the novel MLAM-IV technique.
METHODS
Between September 2012 and October 2013, 120 patients who underwent valve surgery and bipolar radiofrequency ablation for AF were randomized into the LAM-IV group (n = 60) or MLAM-IV group (n = 60). At postoperative follow-up examinations, data were recorded at 1, 3 and 6 months, and annually thereafter.
RESULTS
The mean ablation time and postoperative ventilation time were shorter in the MLAM-IV group than in the LAM-IV group (P < 0.001 and P = 0.03, respectively). At 5 years, the rate of freedom from AF was 69.0% in the MLAM-IV group and 60.0% in the LAM-IV group (hazard ratio 0.71, 95% confidence interval 0.39 to 1.32, P = 0.42). There were no differences with respect to the early operative mortality and major complications, late mortality, and major adverse events.
CONCLUSIONS
The MLAM-IV provides a technically simpler ablation process. The MLAM-IV was associated with less ventilation support in the early postoperative period. The long-term efficacy of the MLAM-IV in the treatment of AF is comparable to that of the LAM-IV.",2020,"The mean ablation time and postoperative ventilation time were shorter in the MLAM-IV group than in the LAM-IV group (P < 0.001 and P = 0.03, respectively).","['atrial fibrillation', 'Between September 2012 and October 2013, 120 patients who underwent', 'patients treated by the novel MLAM-IV technique']","['modified left atrial maze IV procedure', 'MLAM-IV', 'LAM-IV group (n =\u200960) or MLAM-IV group', 'valve surgery and bipolar radiofrequency ablation for AF']","['rate of freedom from AF', 'mean ablation time and postoperative ventilation time', 'early operative mortality and major complications, late mortality, and major adverse events']","[{'cui': 'C0004238', 'cui_str': 'Auricular Fibrillation'}, {'cui': 'C4319550', 'cui_str': '120 (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C0332293', 'cui_str': 'Treated with (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0025664', 'cui_str': 'techniques'}]","[{'cui': 'C0392747', 'cui_str': 'Altered (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0205091', 'cui_str': 'Left (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0184661', 'cui_str': 'Procedures'}, {'cui': 'C0065041', 'cui_str': 'lipoarabinomannan'}, {'cui': 'C0439745', 'cui_str': 'Grouped (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C3888056', 'cui_str': 'Valve (physical object)'}, {'cui': 'C1274039', 'cui_str': 'Surgery'}, {'cui': 'C0443156', 'cui_str': 'Bipolar (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0850292', 'cui_str': 'Radio Frequency Ablation'}]","[{'cui': 'C0016694', 'cui_str': 'Liberty'}, {'cui': 'C0444504', 'cui_str': 'Mean (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0547070', 'cui_str': 'Ablation - action'}, {'cui': 'C1632851', 'cui_str': 'Times'}, {'cui': 'C0032790', 'cui_str': 'Postoperative Period'}, {'cui': 'C2945579', 'cui_str': 'Ventilation, function (observable entity)'}, {'cui': 'C1279919', 'cui_str': 'Early (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0026566', 'cui_str': 'mortality'}, {'cui': 'C0205082', 'cui_str': 'Severe (severity modifier) (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0009566', 'cui_str': 'Complication (disorder)'}, {'cui': 'C0205087', 'cui_str': 'Late (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0877248', 'cui_str': 'Adverse event'}]",120.0,0.0358957,"The mean ablation time and postoperative ventilation time were shorter in the MLAM-IV group than in the LAM-IV group (P < 0.001 and P = 0.03, respectively).","[{'ForeName': 'Dengshen', 'Initials': 'D', 'LastName': 'Zhang', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Cardiovascular Surgery, West China Hospital, Sichuan University, Chengdu, Sichuan, China.'}, {'ForeName': 'Jun', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Shi', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Cardiovascular Surgery, West China Hospital, Sichuan University, Chengdu, Sichuan, China.'}, {'ForeName': 'Huayan', 'Initials': 'H', 'LastName': 'Quan', 'Affiliation': 'West China School of Public Health and West China Fourth Hospital, Sichuan University, Chengdu, Sichuan, China.'}, {'ForeName': 'Lu', 'Initials': 'L', 'LastName': 'Liu', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Cardiovascular Surgery, West China Hospital, Sichuan University, Chengdu, Sichuan, China.'}, {'ForeName': 'Jian', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Zhang', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Cardiovascular Surgery, West China Hospital, Sichuan University, Chengdu, Sichuan, China.'}, {'ForeName': 'Yingqiang', 'Initials': 'Y', 'LastName': 'Guo', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Cardiovascular Surgery, West China Hospital, Sichuan University, Chengdu, Sichuan, China.'}]",ANZ journal of surgery,['10.1111/ans.15486']
1258,30584025,The role of weight gain in explaining the effects of antipsychotic drugs on positive and negative symptoms: An analysis of the CATIE schizophrenia trial.,"Second-generation antipsychotics are associated with moderate benefits in terms of improved schizophrenia symptoms, but also with higher rates of side-effects such as excessive weight gain (WG); a consensus on their efficacy has not been reached. To date, no study has evaluated the interplay of treatments and side-effects in a single framework, which is a critical step to clarify the role of side-effects in explaining the efficacy of these antipsychotics. We used recent methods for mediation and interaction to clarify the role of WG in explaining the effects of second-generation drugs on schizophrenia symptoms. We used data from 1460 participants in the CATIE trial, assigned to either perphenazine (first-generation comparison drug), olanzapine, quetiapine, risperidone, or ziprasidone. The primary outcome was an individual's score on the Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS) for symptoms of schizophrenia after 9 months, separately evaluated as positive (PANSS+), negative (PANSS-), and total PANSS score. WG after 6 months was investigated as a potential mediator and effect modifier. Results showed that, by limiting WG, patients would benefit of a considerably better improvement in terms of PANSS symptoms. In the scenario of weight change being controlled between -2% and 1% for all participants, patients assigned to olanzapine would experience the highest significant improvements in both PANSS+ (-2.66 points; 95% CI: -4.98, -0.35), PANSS- (-1.59; 95% CI: -4.31, 1.14), and total PANSS (-6.11; 95% CI: -13.13, 0.92).

1259,30704873,Intrauterine metformin exposure and offspring cardiometabolic risk factors (PedMet study): a 5-10 year follow-up of the PregMet randomised controlled trial.,"BACKGROUND
Metformin is increasingly used to treat gestational diabetes and type 2 diabetes in pregnancy, and in attempts to improve pregnancy outcomes in polycystic ovary syndrome and obesity. It passes across the placenta with possible long-term consequences for the offspring. We previously explored the effect of metformin, given to women with polycystic ovary syndrome during pregnancy, on children's growth up to 4 years of age. In this 5-10 year follow-up, we examined the cardiometabolic risk factors in these children.
METHODS
This is a follow-up of children from the PregMet study, a double-blind, randomised controlled trial comparing metformin with placebo in polycystic ovary syndrome pregnancies. In the PregMet study, between Feb 4, 2005, and Jan 27, 2009, 257 pregnant women aged 18-45 years with polycystic ovary syndrome according to the Rotterdam criteria were included with 274 singleton pregnancies at 5-12 weeks of gestation at 11 study centres in Norway. 17 women participated twice. Pregnant women were randomised to metformin (2000 mg/day) or placebo from inclusion in the first trimester to birth. Randomisation was stratified according to metformin use at conception. In this follow-up, the primary endpoint was body-mass index (BMI) in the offspring at 5-10 years of age assessed by the standard deviation score (Z score). The primary endpoint was analysed with independent sample t tests. ClinicalTrials.gov number NCT00159536.
FINDINGS
Of the 255 invited children from the PregMet study, 141 (55%) consented to participate and were included between April 29, 2014, and July 12, 2016. Maternal baseline characteristics in the first trimester were similar between groups. Children in the metformin group had a higher BMI Z score than those in the placebo group (difference in means=0·41, 95% CI 0·03-0·78, p=0·03).
INTERPRETATION
The increased BMI in metformin-exposed children might indicate a potential risk of inferior cardiometabolic health. Implications for adult health cannot be excluded.

1260,32408245,"The impact of a three-phase video-assisted debriefing on nursing students' debriefing experiences, perceived stress and facilitators' practices: A mixed methods study.","BACKGROUND
As an integral part of simulation, debriefing helps learners to construct knowledge through reflecting, internalizing, and relating. Video-assisted debriefing (VAD) adds audio-visual captures and reviews to support traditional verbal debriefing (VD), but evidence evaluating its educational effects has been mixed, with limited attention focusing on its structure development.
AIMS
This study aimed to 1) investigate the effects of a three-phase VAD in enhancing nursing students' debriefing experiences and perceived stress compared to VD and 2) to explore its impact on facilitators' debriefing practices.
METHODS
A mixed-methods design was adopted. The quantitative phase involved a prospective controlled trial on 145 nursing students from a university in Singapore who were randomized into the intervention cluster (n = 72) and the control cluster (n = 73). The debriefing experience scale (DES), the stress visual analogue scale (Stress VAS), and the debriefing assessment for simulation in healthcare (DASH© student version) were used as outcome measures. For the qualitative component, a purposive sample of eight facilitators evaluated their own debriefing practices using the DASH© instructor version and each completed an open-ended question survey. Qualitative data were analyzed using content analysis.
RESULTS
Students from the intervention cluster significantly improved their debriefing experiences (p = 0.01), experienced comparable stress, and had better impressions of VAD facilitators' practices (p < 0.001) compared to those in the control cluster. Repeated VAD significantly reduced students' stress (p < 0.001). Students viewed the VAD facilitators as more effective than the VD facilitators. Three categories were derived from the qualitative comments: the act of debriefing, the crux of VAD, and debriefing for success.
CONCLUSION
The three-phase VAD significantly improved nursing students' debriefing experiences without adding extra stress. It also helped to improve facilitators' practices. Future research will benefit from exploring how experts facilitate the three-phase VAD ""on the ground"" and its effect on learning transfer and cost-effectiveness.",2020,"RESULTS

1261,30762289,Aiming for the optimal bicarbonate prescription for maintenance hemodialysis therapy in end-stage renal disease.,"INTRODUCTION
Acidemia and alkalemia, as a result of gradual depletion of the body's buffers followed by rapid repletion during hemodialysis (HD), are linked to adverse consequences. We examined the acid-base status with dialysis bath of higher bicarbonate (HC03 - ) concentration or standard HC03 - bath plus oral HC03 - supplementation.
METHODS
A total of 60 stable HD patients (pts) were evaluated according to their pre-dialysis acid-base status both before the first and the second session of the week dialyzed against standard base dialysate of 35 mmol/L. Those who presented predialysis HC03 - <22 mmol/L (25 pts) were assigned to dialysis against bath of increased HC03 - levels (37 mmol/L) for 2 weeks (period A) and subsequently to dialysis with the standard dialysate bath plus daily oral sodium bicarbonate at a dose of 5 g/day for 2 weeks (period B). Pre and post-dialysis acid-base status at each study period and relevant laboratory tests were recorded.
FINDINGS
Pre-dialysis acid-base values were similar between the first and the second dialysis session. Twenty-five points had pre-dialysis pH <7.35, while 42 (the younger ones) presented pre-dialysis HC03 - <22 mmol/L. After dialysis session 18 pts had pH >7.45. Comparing the two study periods, interdialytic weight was similar, pre-dialysis HC03 - levels were improved with oral bicarbonate, while post-dialysis HC03 - were higher during period A. Three pts could not tolerate the symptoms of alkalemia during period A.
DISCUSSION
The impact of conventional HC03 - concentrations of 35 mmol/L results in a considerable degree of pre-dialysis acidemia. Increasing the HC03 - in bath results in more prominent post-dialysis alkalemia, however, it is not sufficient to maintain acid-base status during the interdialytic period. Oral bicarbonate supplement at a dose of 5 g/day (divided in three daily doses) results in a more balanced acid-base status, avoiding post-dialysis alkalemia.",2019,"Comparing the two study periods, interdialytic weight was similar, pre-dialysis HC03 - levels were improved with oral bicarbonate, while post-dialysis HC03 - were higher during period A.

Three cohorts of 20 female volunteers with high body image concerns were recruited to two intervention groups and one control group. All participants completed a 4-day training programme in VR where they categorised a series of 3D models as either thin or fat; one intervention group was presented with the stimuli briefly, while the other group had no time limits imposed. Both intervention groups were given inflationary feedback to shift their categorisations of the stimulus models towards higher BMIs. Our results show that, compared to controls, both intervention groups shifted their categorical boundaries between Day 1 and follow-up on Day 14. Unlimited stimulus presentation times were associated with a larger training effect. Furthermore, both intervention groups experienced statistically significant reductions in their concerns about their own body shape, weight and eating habits. However, only in the group with longer stimulus presentation times were these reductions consistent with a clinically meaningful effect.

1263,31900815,Preventive Epidural Analgesia in Bilateral Single-Stage Knee Arthroplasty: A Randomized Controlled Trial.,"INTRODUCTION
Although controversial, pre-emptive analgesia has shown some promise in preventing altered pain perception and reducing pain amplification after surgery. Hence, it has the potential to be more effective than a similar analgesic regimen started after surgery with an appropriate combination of patient category and analgesic modality. Hence, the present study was undertaken to evaluate the effect of preventive epidural analgesia in reducing pain severity and duration after bilateral single-stage knee arthroplasty.
METHODS
Fifty patients, 18-70 years, with American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status class I & II posted for bilateral single-stage knee replacement under regional anesthesia were randomly allocated into preventive versus postoperative epidural analgesia group to compare severity of post-operative pain, analgesic consumption, day of mobilization, C-reactive protein (CRP) levels, and hospital stay.
RESULTS
The pain score after surgery [2.0 (1.5, 2.0); 3.0 (1.5, 3.0), p = 0.005] and day of mobilization [(2. 92 ± 0. 28; 3. 31 ± 0. 48; p value 0.02)] were significantly lesser in the preventive epidural group. However, there was no difference in the hospital stay (9.92 ± 3.71 and 9.00 ± 2.12, p = 0.95) and analgesic consumption (65.38 ± 37.55 and 73.08 ± 43.85, p = 0.30). The preventive group had a larger drop in CRP and experienced a lesser number of days with pain after surgery as compared to the controls [(64.29 ± 21.29); (142.37 ± 80.04), p = 0.0001]. Six patients in the preemptive group (24%) and 13 of the control group (24 vs. 56.5%; p = 0.02) had chronic postsurgical pain.
CONCLUSIONS

1264,31693918,The prebiotic effect of CPP-ACP sugar-free chewing gum.,"OBJECTIVES
To determine if chewing gum containing casein phosphopeptide stabilised amorphous calcium phosphate (CPP-ACP) promoted an increase in the abundance of Streptococcus sanguinis and other species associated with dental health in supragingival plaque in a clinical study.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
Nineteen participants were recruited for a three-leg cross-over, randomised, controlled clinical trial. Participants chewed a sugar-free gum with or without CPP-ACP six times daily for 20 min over two weeks. The study also involved no gum chewing (no gum) for the same two week period. Participants were randomly assigned to one of the test gums or no gum for each intervention period. Participants abstained from oral hygiene and had washout periods of two weeks between intervention periods. After each intervention period, supragingival plaque was collected and analysed for bacterial composition by sequencing the V4 variable region of the 16S rRNA gene. Data were analysed using a linear mixed model.
RESULTS
The CPP-ACP gum intervention produced a significant (p < 0.01) increase in the proportions of S. sanguinis (112%), as well as the commensal species Rothia dentocariosa (127%), Corynebacterium durum (80%) and Streptococcus mitis (55%) when compared with the no gum intervention. All the species that were promoted by the CPP-ACP gum are known to possess one or both of the alkali-producing enzymes arginine deiminase and nitrate reductase.
CONCLUSION
This clinical study demonstrated that chewing a sugar-free gum containing CPP-ACP promoted prebiosis by significantly increasing the proportion of S. sanguinis and other health-associated bacterial species in supragingival plaque.

1265,30768161,A 14 day esomeprazole- and amoxicillin-containing high-dose dual therapy regimen achieves a high eradication rate as first-line anti-Helicobacter pylori treatment in Taiwan: a prospective randomized trial.,"BACKGROUND
The first-line eradication rate of standard triple therapy for Helicobacter pylori infection has declined to <80%, and alternative therapies with >90% success rates are needed. Inconsistent eradication rates were reported for proton pump inhibitor- and amoxicillin-containing high-dose dual therapy.
OBJECTIVES
We performed a prospective, randomized controlled study to assess the efficacy of esomeprazole- and amoxicillin-containing high-dose dual therapy and investigated the influencing clinical factors.
PATIENTS AND METHODS
We recruited 240/278 eligible H. pylori-infected patients after exclusion. They were randomly assigned to 14 day high-dose dual therapy (esomeprazole 40 mg three times daily and amoxicillin 750 mg four times daily for 14 days; EA group) or 7 day non-bismuth quadruple therapy (esomeprazole 40 mg twice daily, clarithromycin 500 mg twice daily, amoxicillin 1 g twice daily and metronidazole 500 mg twice daily for 7 days; EACM group). Urea breath tests were followed up 8 weeks later.
RESULTS
The eradication rates for the EA and EACM groups were 91.7% (95% CI = 85.3%-96.0%) and 86.7% (95% CI = 79.3%-92.2%) (P = 0.21) in ITT analysis; and 95.7% (95% CI = 90.2%-98.6%) and 92.0% (95% CI = 85.4%-96.3%) (P = 0.26) in PP analysis. The adverse event rates were 9.6% versus 23.0% in the two groups (P = 0.01). The H. pylori culture positivity rate was 91.8%. The antibiotic resistance rates were amoxicillin, 0%; clarithromycin, 14.6%; and metronidazole, 33.7%.

1267,30740858,New modes of continuous renal replacement therapy using a refiltering technique to reduce micronutrient loss.,"INTRODUCTION
Micronutrient depletion is a major drawback of high-dose continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT). We tested two novel CRRT modes, double-filtration hemofiltration (DHF) and dialysate-recycling hemodiafiltration (DHDF), aimed at reducing micronutrient loss while maintaining a high clearance rate of midsized solutes comparable to that of high-volume hemofiltration (HVHF).
METHODS
Forty patients with renal failure requiring CRRT were randomly assigned to receive predilutional standard-volume hemofiltration (SVHF, effluent rate 35 mL/kg/h), predilutional HVHF (100 mL/kg/h), DHF (35 mL/kg/h), and DHDF (30 mL/kg/h). In the two novel modes of CRRT, part of the high-volume primary effluent fluid produced by a high-flux filter (AV600S) was refiltered by two low-flux filters (15 L) for recycling as replacement fluid in DHF and dialysate in DHDF, while the remainder was discarded as final effluent fluid. Specimens were collected for measurement of trace elements, folic acid, amino acids (AAs), β2-microglobulin, cystatin C, and creatinine and for calculation of solute clearance.
FINDINGS
The clearance of 17 AAs, phosphorus, folic acid, copper, and zinc by DHF and DHDF was much lower than that by HVHF and comparable to that by SVHF. The estimated amount of AA loss by SVHF, HVHF, DHF, and DHDF was 10.3 (7.2-13.4) g/d, 22.1 (17.8-24.0) g/d, 10.6 (8.6-14.0) g/d, and 10.0 (8.6-11.4) g/d, respectively. Clearance of cystatin C and β2-microglobulin by DHF and DHDF was much greater than that by SVHF and equal to that by HVHF.
DISCUSSION

1268,30773797,Efficacy of the SEPARPROCATH® radiation drape to reduce radiation exposure during cardiac catheterization: A pilot comparative study.,"BACKGROUND
Interventional cardiologists are exposed to radiation-induced diseases, partly due to patient's scatter radiation.
OBJECTIVES
We sought to compare the radiation exposure (RE) of the cardiac catheterization room staff using SEPARPROCATH®, a novel radio-protective drape versus standard shielding equipment.
METHODS
This was a two-step prospective, randomized pilot trial: first, in experimental conditions using a phantom model, and second, during cardiac catheterization. Primary end-point was operator RE corresponding to the ratio between operator cumulative dose (CD) and dose area product (DAP). Secondary end-points were nurse RE, operator and nurse CD, DAP, and fluoroscopy time.
RESULTS
A total of 51 patients were included. SEPARPROCATH® was associated with a lower operator RE (0.07 [0-0.19] vs. 0.37 [0.23-0.81] μSv/Gy.cm 2 without SEPARPROCATH®, p value <0.0001) and lower nurse RE (0 [0-0.05] vs. 0.13 [0.03-0.28] μSv/Gy.cm 2 , p value <0.0001) corresponding to an RE relative risk reduction of 81% and 99%, respectively. Similar reductions were observed for operator and nurse CDs. No difference was found in DAP (19 [11-29] vs. 14 [10-32] Gy.cm 2 without SEPARPROCATH®, p value 0.81).

1269,25179153,A novel approach to reduce radial artery occlusion after transradial catheterization: postprocedural/prehemostasis intra-arterial nitroglycerin.,"OBJECTIVE
To evaluate whether administration of nitroglycerin through the sheath at the end of a transradial procedure might preserve the patency of the radial artery.
BACKGROUND
Despite the increasing acceptance of transradial approach, radial artery occlusion (RAO) continues to be a vexing problem of transradial access and limits utility of the radial artery as an access site in the future.
METHODS
We conducted a multicenter, prospective, randomized, placebo-controlled, operator-blinded trial and enrolled 1,706 patients who underwent transradial catheterization in three experienced radial centers. Patients were randomized to receive either 500 µg nitroglycerin (n=853) or placebo (n=853), given intra-arterially through the sheath at the end of the radial procedure. The primary outcome was the incidence of RAO as confirmed by absence of antegrade flow at one day after the transradial procedure evaluated by duplex ultrasound of the radial artery.
RESULTS
The use of nitroglycerin, as compared with placebo, reduced the risk of the primary outcome [8.3% vs. 11.7%; odds ratio, 0.62; 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.44-0.87; P=0.006]. From a multivariable analysis, duration of hemostasis was a predictor of RAO (odds ratio, (odds ratio, 3.11; 95% CI, 1.66 to 5.82; P<0.001). There were no significant differences between the groups with respect to the sheath size (P=0.311), number of puncture attempts (P=0.941), duration of hemostasis (P=0.379) and procedural time (P=0.095).

1270,32408153,Safety and feasibility of various fasting-mimicking diets among people with multiple sclerosis.,"BACKGROUND
Fasting-mimicking diets have shown promise in experimental autoimmune encephalitis and are currently being investigated among people with multiple sclerosis (MS). Ensuring adherence to diet changes is critical to determining the efficacy of such interventions.
OBJECTIVE
Our primary aim was to evaluate the safety and feasibility of several fasting-mimicking diets and investigate whether various levels of clinical support improve diet adherence among people with MS. Secondarily, this study evaluated the impact of fasting-mimicking diets on weight and patient-reported outcomes (PROs).
METHODS
We conducted three pilot studies (two randomized controlled for 6 months; one randomized with transition to single arm) restricting either the amount or timing of calorie intake over 24 or 48 weeks. Interventions included calorie restriction (daily or intermittently) or time-restricted feeding. Adherence measures varied across studies but were collected at study visits along with weight and PRO data.
RESULTS
A total of 90 participants enrolled; 70 completed the studies, with no serious adverse events reported. Overall adherence to the calorie restriction diets was poor. When participants were tasked with maintaining a diet in a pragmatic setting, neither previously completed intense clinical support and education, nor weekly electronic communication throughout the diet period appeared to improve diet adherence. Participants who were able to adhere to a calorie restriction diet predictably lost weight. In contrast to calorie restriction, adherence to a time-restricted feeding (TRF) diet was relatively good. No statistically significant changes in PROs were observed in an intention-to-treat analysis.
CONCLUSION
The role diet may play in clinical outcomes in MS remains unknown, as class I evidence is lacking. Diet adherence remains a primary barrier to the feasible conduct of large, randomized controlled diet trials. Strict adherence to a TRF dietary change may be more feasible than calorie restriction and should be considered in future fasting-mimicking diet trials.

1271,30772898,Person-Centered Sexual Expression: Determining Preferences of Future Nursing Home Residents.,"BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES
Approaches to sexual expression in nursing homes are often devoid of person-centered components, such as resident choice. Little is known about residents' preferences for sexual and intimate expression across different situations. To evaluate future resident preferences, a convenience sample of 389 midlife and older adults in the United States were assessed for their perceptions of appropriateness of sexual and intimate activity among couples in nursing homes, given certain situational factors (e.g., cognitive impairment, relationship status, assent behaviors).
RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS
A randomized experimental vignette design was implemented to determine situational factors that influence future resident preferences for sexual expression in nursing homes. Data were analyzed via multilevel modeling, allowing for multiple vignette ratings to be nested among respondents.
RESULTS
Behavioral indications of assent, level of intimacy between the couple, and age of respondent affected respondents' ratings of appropriateness of sexual and intimate activities. Also, cognition and relationship levels interacted for more nuanced effects on activity appropriateness.
DISCUSSION AND IMPLICATIONS
Future resident preferences are often incongruent with attitudes and common practices for approaching sexual expression in nursing home settings. This marks a unique opportunity for person-centered policy development and implementation in the realm of sexual expression.",2020,"RESULTS

1272,31494019,Evaluation of a technology assisted physical activity intervention among hospitalised patients: A randomised study.,"BACKGROUND
Physical inactivity is common during hospitalisation and poses a threat to functional capacity and independency in the elderly.
AIM
We aimed to assess the effect of physical activity measurements with visual feedback about time spent in various activities on the average daily time spent out of bed during hospitalisation.
METHODS
We recorded physical activity during hospitalisation by accelerometers and compared the effect of the visual feedback (intervention) with no feedback (control) on time spent out of bed. Patients admitted to the pulmonary ward were invited and assigned to intervention with feedback or control with no feedback in 6 alternating waves of approximately 18 patients each. The order of feedback/no feedback was randomised at the outset of the study. The visual feedback intervention group was provided with visual feedback of the daily time spent in bed, sitting, standing, and walking. The control group did not receive feedback.
RESULTS
93 patients completed the study with a median length of stay of 5 days. Across all patients there were no statistically significant group differences in daily time out of bed; however, patients with independent mobility spent 51 minutes (95% CI 0 to 102; P = .049) more out of bed when provided with visual feedback compared to no feedback.
CONCLUSIONS
A simple technology assisted physical activity intervention with visual feedback to encourage mobility was not effective at increasing time spent out of bed among hospitalised patients. With feedback, a subgroup of patients with independent walking abilities increased time out of bed and may benefit from this type of intervention.

1273,30765264,"Laparoscopic versus open adhesiolysis for adhesive small bowel obstruction (LASSO): an international, multicentre, randomised, open-label trial.","BACKGROUND
Although laparoscopic adhesiolysis for adhesive small bowel obstruction is being done more frequently, it is not widely accepted due to the lack of supporting evidence of its superiority over an open approach and concerns regarding its benefits. We aimed to investigate whether laparoscopic adhesiolysis was a superior treatment for adhesive small bowel obstruction compared with an open approach in terms of length of postoperative hospital stay and morbidity.
METHODS
In this international, multicentre, parallel, open-label trial, we randomly assigned patients (1:1) aged 18-95 years who had adhesive small bowel obstruction that had not resolved with conservative management to have either open or laparoscopic adhesiolysis. The study was done in five academic university hospitals and three community (central) hospitals in two countries (Finland [n=3 academic university hospitals; n=3 community hospitals] and Italy [n=2 academic university hospitals]). We included only patients with high likelihood of a single adhesive band in the trial; additionally, patients who had an anaesthesiological contraindication, were pregnant, living in institutionalised care, or who had a hospital stay of more than 1 week before the surgical consultation were excluded from the trial. The randomisation sequence was generated using block randomisation, with randomly varied block sizes and stratified according to centre. The primary outcome was postoperative length of hospital stay assessed at time of discharge in the modified intention-to-treat population.
FINDINGS
Between July 18, 2013, and April 9, 2018, 566 patients were assessed for eligibility, of whom 104 patients were randomly assigned to the open surgery group (n=51) or to the laparoscopy group (n=53). Of these patients, 100 were included in the modified intention-to-treat analyses (49 in the open surgery group; 51 in the laparoscopy group). The postoperative length of hospital stay for open surgery group was on average 1·3 days longer than that in the laparoscopy group (geometric mean 5·5 days [range 2-19] vs 4·2 days [range 1 -20]; ratio of geometric means 1·31 [95% CI 1·06-1·61]; p=0·013). 21 (43%) patients in the open surgery group and 16 (31%) patients in the laparoscopy group had postoperative complications (Clavien-Dindo any grade) within 30 days (odds ratio 0·61 [95% CI 0·27-1·38]; p=0·23). One patient died in each group within 30 days.
INTERPRETATION
Laparoscopic adhesiolysis provides quicker recovery in selected patients with adhesive small bowel obstruction than open adhesiolysis.

1274,30765242,"Protection against varicella with two doses of combined measles-mumps-rubella-varicella vaccine or one dose of monovalent varicella vaccine: 10-year follow-up of a phase 3 multicentre, observer-blind, randomised, controlled trial.","BACKGROUND
The duration of protection provided by varicella vaccines is unclear. We assessed the 10-year vaccine efficacy of two doses of a combined measles-mumps-rubella-varicella vaccine (MMRV), one live attenuated varicella vaccine (V) dose given after one measles-mumps-rubella vaccine (MMR) dose (MMR + V), versus two MMR doses (control vaccine) for the prevention of confirmed varicella.
METHODS
This was a phase 3b follow-up of an observer-blinded, randomised, controlled trial. In phase a, children aged 12-22 months (at first vaccination) from Czech Republic (Czechia), Greece, Italy, Lithuania, Norway, Poland, Romania, Russia, Slovakia, and Sweden were randomly assigned by computer-generated randomisation list (3:3:1) to receive two doses of MMRV, one dose of MMR and one dose of varicella vaccine, or two doses of MMR, 42 days apart. Varicella cases were confirmed by detection of viral DNA, or epidemiological link and clinical assessment, by an independent data monitoring committee; disease severity was based on a modified Vázquez scale. Hazard ratios for MMRV and MMR + V versus MMR estimated in the per-protocol cohort using a Cox proportional hazards regression model were used to calculate vaccine efficacy and 95% CI. Serious adverse events were recorded throughout the study in all vaccinated children. Study objectives were secondary and descriptive. The trial is registered at ClinicalTrials.gov, number NCT00226499.
FINDINGS
Between Sept 1, 2005, and May 10, 2006, 5803 children (mean age 14·2 months, SD 2·5) were vaccinated. The per-protocol cohort included 2279 children from the MMRV group, 2266 from the MMR + V group, and 744 from the MMR group. From baseline to a median follow-up of 9·8 years, 76 (3%) children in the MMRV group, 469 (21%) in the MMR + V group, and 352 (47%) in the MMR group had varicella. Vaccine efficacy against all varicella was 95·4% (95% CI 94·0-96·4) for MMRV and 67·2% (62·3-71·5) for MMR + V; vaccine efficacy against moderate or severe varicella was 99·1% (97·9-99·6) for MMRV and 89·5% (86·1-92·1) for MMR + V. During phase b, serious adverse events were reported by 290 (15%) of 1961 children in the MMRV group, 317 (16%) of 1978 in the MMR + V group, and 93 (15%) of 641 in the MMR group. There were no treatment-related deaths.
INTERPRETATION
The 10-years vaccine efficacy observed, suggests that a two-dose schedule of varicella vaccine provided optimum long-term protection for the prevention of varicella by offering individual protection against all severities of disease and leading to a potential reduction in transmission, as observed in the US experience with universal mass vaccination.

We analyzed the development of dnDSA in 69 LT patients who received calcineurin inhibitor monotherapy and were enrolled in the ITN030ST study. Of these 69 patients, 40 stable patients were randomized to IS maintenance (n = 9) or IS minimization (n = 31). Nine of the 31 IS minimization patients achieved complete withdrawal and were free of IS. Among patients who achieved stable IS monotherapy 1 year after transplantation, the prevalence of dnDSA was 18.8%. Acute rejections and the biopsy-proven findings disqualifying patients from IS withdrawal attempt were factors associated with dnDSA development (P = 0.011 and P = 0.041, respectively). Among randomized patients, dnDSA prevalence was 51.7% after IS minimization and 66.7% in IS-free patients. dnDSA prevalence in patients on IS maintenance was 44.4%. dnDSA development during IS minimization was a risk factor for acute rejection (P = 0.015). The majority of dnDSA were against HLA-DQ antigens (78.7%). Conclusion.

Doubts exist regarding optimal second-line treatment options for HIV-1-infected patients in resource-limited settings. We assessed safety and efficacy of dolutegravir compared with ritonavir-boosted lopinavir, plus two nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs) in adults in whom previous first-line antiretroviral therapy with a non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI) plus two NRTIs has failed.
METHODS
DAWNING is a phase 3b, open-label, parallel-group, non-inferiority, active-controlled trial done at 58 sites in 13 countries. Eligible adults were aged at least 18 years and, during at least 6 months of treatment with a first-line treatment containing an NNRTI and two NRTIs, had virological failure (confirmed HIV-1 RNA ≥400 copies per mL). Participants were randomly assigned by a central randomisation system to receive oral dolutegravir (50 mg once daily) or ritonavir-boosted lopinavir (800 mg lopinavir plus 200 mg ritonavir once daily or 400 mg plus 100 mg twice daily), plus two investigator-selected NRTIs (at least one fully active based on resistance testing at screening). The primary outcome was the proportion of participants achieving viral suppression (defined as plasma HIV-1 RNA <50 copies per mL) at week 48 using the snapshot algorithm and a non-inferiority margin of -12%. The primary analysis was done in an intention-to-treat-exposed (ITT-E) population of participants who received at least one dose of study medication, according to original group assignment. Safety was analysed in all participants who received at least one dose of study drug, according to which drug was received. The study was registered at ClinicalTrials.gov, number NCT02227238, and viiv-studyregister.com, number 200304.
FINDINGS
Between Dec 11, 2014, and June 27, 2016, 968 adults were screened and 627 were randomly assigned to the dolutegravir group (n=312) or the ritonavir-boosted lopinavir group (n=315). Three patients in the ritonavir-boosted lopinavir group did not receive study medication and so 624 were included in the ITT-E population. At week 48, 261 (84%) of 312 participants in the dolutegravir group achieved viral suppression compared with 219 (70%) of 312 in the ritonavir-boosted lopinavir group (adjusted difference 13·8%; 95% CI 7·3-20·3). Non-inferiority was achieved on the basis of the 95% CI of the adjusted treatment difference having a lower bound greater than -12% (prespecified non-inferiority margin). Because the lower bound of the 95% CI is greater than zero (7·3%), superiority of dolutegravir was also concluded (p<0·0001). The safety profile for dolutegravir was favourable compared with that of ritonavir-boosted lopinavir. More grade 2-4 drug-related adverse events occurred with ritonavir-boosted lopinavir than dolutegravir (44 [14%] of 310 with ritonavir-boosted lopinavir vs 11 [4%] of 314 with dolutegravir), mainly driven by gastrointestinal disorders.
INTERPRETATION
When administered with two NRTIs, dolutegravir was superior to ritonavir-boosted lopinavir at 48 weeks and can be considered a suitable option for second-line treatment.

1277,31690491,The impact of exercise modality and menstrual cycle phase on circulating cardiac troponin T.,"OBJECTIVES
It is unclear whether exercise modality (moderate-intensity continuous [MCE]; high-intensity interval [HIE]) and menstrual cycle phase (follicular [FP]; luteal [LP]), individually or in combination, mediate the commonly observed exercise-induced elevation in cardiac troponin T (cTnT). This study examines cTnT responses to MCE and HIE during both the FP and LP.
DESIGN
Randomised crossover study.
METHODS
Seventeen healthy, eumenorrheic women completed four trials including MCE (60% VO 2max steady-state cycling until 300kJ) and work-equivalent HIE (repeated 4-min cycling at 90% VO 2max interspersed with 3-min rest) during both the FP and LP. The FP and LP were verified based on ovarian hormones. Serum cTnT was assessed using a high-sensitivity assay before, immediately after, and 1 (1HR), 3 (3HR) and 4 (4HR) hours after exercise. cTnT values were corrected for plasma volume changes.
RESULTS
cTnT was significantly elevated (p<0.05) post-exercise in both MCE (at 3HR and 4HR) and HIE (at 1HR, 3HR and 4HR). No statistically significant difference (p>0.05) in peak post-exercise cTnT, which mostly occurred at 3HR, was seen among the four trials (median [range], ngl -1 : 5.2 [1.7-18.1] after MCE during FP; 4.8 [1.7-24.9] after MCE during LP, 8.2 [3.9-24.8] after HIE during FP and 6.9 [1.7-23.1] after HIE during LP).
CONCLUSIONS
A single 300kJ bout of both MCE or HIE resulted in a significant post-exercise increase in cTnT, with no differences in peak cTnT response between menstrual cycle phases or between exercise modes, but the cTnT elevation occurs slightly earlier after HIE.",2020,"A single 300kJ bout of both MCE or HIE resulted in a significant post-exercise increase in cTnT, with no differences in peak cTnT","['Seventeen healthy, eumenorrheic women completed four trials including']","['MCE (60% VO 2max steady-state cycling until 300kJ) and work-equivalent HIE (repeated 4-min cycling at 90% VO 2max interspersed with 3-min rest', 'cTnT']","['FP and LP', 'peak cTnT', 'cardiac troponin T (cTnT']","[{'cui': 'C0450331', 'cui_str': '17 (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0043210', 'cui_str': 'Girls'}, {'cui': 'C0205197', 'cui_str': 'Complete (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0332257', 'cui_str': 'Including (qualifier value)'}]","[{'cui': 'C0256930', 'cui_str': 'mesochlorin e6 monoethylenediamine'}, {'cui': 'C0205361', 'cui_str': 'Steady (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C1301808', 'cui_str': 'State'}, {'cui': 'C0043227', 'cui_str': 'Work'}, {'cui': 'C0205163', 'cui_str': 'Equal (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0205341', 'cui_str': 'Repeat (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0439232', 'cui_str': 'min (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0035253', 'cui_str': 'Rest'}]","[{'cui': 'C0444505', 'cui_str': 'Peak (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C3538889', 'cui_str': 'Cardiac troponin T (substance)'}]",17.0,0.0583995,"A single 300kJ bout of both MCE or HIE resulted in a significant post-exercise increase in cTnT, with no differences in peak cTnT","[{'ForeName': 'Jinlei', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Nie', 'Affiliation': 'School of Health Sciences and Sports, Macao Polytechnic Institute, Macao.'}, {'ForeName': 'Haifeng', 'Initials': 'H', 'LastName': 'Zhang', 'Affiliation': 'Physical Education College, Hebei Normal University, China; Hebei Provincial Key Lab of Measurement and Evaluation in Human Movement and Bio-Information, China.

1278,32407786,Study To Reduce Infection Prior to Elective Cesarean Deliveries (STRIPES): A randomized clinical trial of chlorhexidine.,"BACKGROUND
Surgical site infections after cesarean delivery are a source of maternal morbidity and usually due to skin microbial flora. Preadmission application of chlorhexidine gluconate via impregnated cloths may decrease surgical site infections by decreasing the abundance of microbial flora.
OBJECTIVE(S)
To determine if the application of chlorhexidine gluconate-impregnated cloths the night before and morning of scheduled cesarean delivery decreases the risk of surgical site infections by 6 weeks post-operatively compared to placebo cloths.
STUDY DESIGN
In this single-center, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial, patients were randomized (1:1) to receive either Sage 2% chlorhexidine cloths or Sage Comfort Bath fragrance-free cloths (placebo) to apply to 6 skin sites on the body (neck/shoulders/chest, arm pits/arms/hands, abdomen/groin, left leg/foot, right leg/foot, back/buttocks) the night before and after a shower the morning of scheduled cesarean delivery. Routine clinical and operative procedures were followed. The primary outcome was surgical site infections (superficial or deep -incisional and/or organ space-endometritis) by 6 weeks after cesarean delivery. The secondary outcomes were surgical site infections by 2 weeks and other wound-related complications by 2 and 6 weeks after cesarean delivery.
RESULTS
From April 2015 through August 2019, 1,356 patients were enrolled: 682 were assigned to the chlorhexidine group and 674 to the placebo group. The groups were similar in demographic and medical characteristics. Fourteen patients were lost to follow-up prior to cesarean delivery (10 in chlorhexidine and 4 in placebo) and 33 were lost to follow-up after cesarean delivery (10 in chlorhexidine and 23 in placebo). Among the remaining 1309 (97%), no difference was found in surgical site infections by 6 weeks between the groups (2.6% in chlorhexidine vs. 3.7% in placebo, P=0.24). There were no differences in secondary outcomes at 2 or 6 weeks, and no differences in primary outcome in a per-protocol analysis Conclusion(s): Pre-admission use of chlorhexidine gluconate cloths compared to placebo does not result in a reduction in surgical site infection after scheduled cesarean deliveries.

The prevalence of liver function abnormalities is common in patients with heart failure (HF) with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). We assessed the impact of liver function on prognosis and the effect of sacubitril/valsartan on measures of liver function in patients with HFrEF.
METHODS AND RESULTS
The PARADIGM-HF trial was a randomized, double-blind, active treatment-controlled trial. We included 8232 HFrEF patients with available measures of liver function, including transaminases, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and bilirubin; the primary endpoint was a composite of HF hospitalization and cardiovascular (CV) death. At screening, 11.6% of study patients had total bilirubin above the upper limit of normal (20.5 μmol/L) and 9.2% had ALP above the upper limit of normal (123 IU/L). Although ALP and albumin were associated with an increased risk of outcomes, among conventional test of liver function, total bilirubin was the strongest predictor for the primary endpoint [hazard ratio (HR) 1.10; 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.04-1.15; P < 0.001], HF hospitalization (HR 1.14; 95% CI 1.07-1.22; P < 0.001); CV death (HR 1.07; 95% CI 1.00-1.14; P = 0.040), and all-cause death (HR 1.08; 95% CI 1.02-1.14; P = 0.009). All conventional measures of liver function were significantly improved in the sacubitril/valsartan group compared with the enalapril group after randomization (between-group reduction: total bilirubin 2.4%, 95% CI 0.7-4.2%, P = 0.007; aspartate aminotransferase 7.9%, 95% CI 6.7-9.0%, P < 0.001; alanine aminotransferase 7.7%; 95% CI 6.2-9.3%, P < 0.001; ALP 5.4%, 95% CI 4.4-6.4%, P < 0.001).

1280,32407710,"The effect of lactoferrin supplementation on death or major morbidity in very low birthweight infants (LIFT): a multicentre, double-blind, randomised controlled trial.","BACKGROUND
Very low birthweight or preterm infants are at increased risk of adverse outcomes including sepsis, necrotising enterocolitis, and death. We assessed whether supplementing the enteral diet of very low-birthweight infants with lactoferrin, an antimicrobial protein, reduces all-cause mortality or major morbidity.
METHODS
We did a multicentre, double-blind, pragmatic, randomised superiority trial in 14 Australian and two New Zealand neonatal intensive care units. Infants born weighing less than 1500 g and aged less than 8 days, were eligible and randomly assigned (1:1) using minimising web-based randomisation to receive once daily 200 mg/kg pasteurised bovine lactoferrin supplements or no lactoferrin supplement added to breast or formula milk until 34 weeks' post-menstrual age (or for 2 weeks, if longer), or until discharge from the study hospital if that occurred first. Designated nurses preparing the daily feeds were not masked to group assignment, but other nurses, doctors, parents, caregivers, and investigators were unaware. The primary outcome was survival to hospital discharge or major morbidity (defined as brain injury, necrotising enterocolitis, late-onset sepsis at 36 weeks' post-menstrual age, or retinopathy treated before discharge) assessed in the intention-to-treat population. Safety analyses were by treatment received. We also did a prespecified, PRISMA-compliant meta-analysis, which included this study and other relevant randomised controlled trials, to estimate more precisely the effects of lactoferrin supplementation on late-onset sepsis, necrotising enterocolitis, and survival. This trial is registered with the Australian and New Zealand Clinical Trials Registry, ACTRN12611000247976.
FINDINGS
Between June 27, 2014, and Sept 1, 2017, we recruited 1542 infants; 771 were assigned to the intervention group and 771 to the control group. One infant who had consent withdrawn before beginning lactoferrin treatment was excluded from analysis. In-hospital death or major morbidity occurred in 162 (21%) of 770 infants in the intervention group and in 170 (22%) of 771 infants in the control group (relative risk [RR] 0·95, 95% CI 0·79-1·14; p=0·60). Three suspected unexpected serious adverse reactions occurred; two in the lactoferrin group, namely unexplained late jaundice and inspissated milk syndrome, but were not attributed to the intervention and one in the control group had fatal inspissated milk syndrome. Our meta-analysis identified 13 trials completed before Feb 18, 2020, including this Article, in 5609 preterm infants. Lactoferrin supplements significantly reduced late-onset sepsis (RR 0·79, 95% CI 0·71-0·88; p<0·0001; I 2 =58%), but not necrotising enterocolitis or all-cause mortality.
INTERPRETATION
Lactoferrin supplementation did not improve death or major morbidity in this trial, but might reduce late-onset sepsis, as found in our meta-analysis of over 5000 infants. Future collaborative studies should use products with demonstrated biological activity, be large enough to detect moderate and clinically important effects reliably, and assess greater doses of lactoferrin in infants at increased risk, such as those not exclusively receiving breastmilk or infants of extremely low birthweight.

1281,32407827,A simulation approach to measure critical safety behaviors when evaluating training methods for respirator education in healthcare workers.,"BACKGROUND
The N95 respirator is the most common safety tool used in hospitals to protect healthcare workers (HCW) from inhaling airborne particles. Focusing on HCW behavior related to respirator use is an effective route to improve HCW safety and respiratory health.
METHODS
Participants were asked to perform the donning and doffing of an N95 respirator to camera. Then they were randomized to a video alone or a reflective practice intervention. After the intervention they repeated the donning and doffing to camera. A critical safety behavior scoring tool (CSBST) was developed to compare the performance of the participants over time at pre-test, post-test and one month later for follow-up.
RESULTS
The reflective practice intervention group was found to have significantly higher scores on the CSBST at post-test and follow-up than the video alone group. In the reflective practice intervention group, the participants perceived they were better at performing the N95 donning and doffing than the experts scored them.
CONCLUSIONS
The CSBST is a tool to measure the performance of HCWs on a specific targeted safety behaviors. The addition of a reflective practice intervention may result in a measurable and sustained improvement in the safety behaviors demonstrated when using the N95 respirator.",2020,The reflective practice intervention group was found to have significantly higher scores on the CSBST at post-test and follow-up than the video alone group.,"['Participants were asked to perform the donning and doffing of an N95 respirator to camera', 'hospitals to protect healthcare workers (HCW) from inhaling airborne particles', 'healthcare workers']","['video alone or a reflective practice intervention', 'CSBST']","['safety behaviors', 'HCW safety and respiratory health']","[{'cui': 'C1172410', 'cui_str': 'ASK protein, human'}, {'cui': 'C0884358', 'cui_str': 'Performed'}, {'cui': 'C0429406', 'cui_str': 'Pattern ERG N95'}, {'cui': 'C0035208', 'cui_str': 'Air-purifying respirator'}, {'cui': 'C0179533', 'cui_str': 'Camera'}, {'cui': 'C0019994', 'cui_str': 'Hospitals'}, {'cui': 'C0018724', 'cui_str': 'Health Care Providers'}, {'cui': 'C0004048', 'cui_str': 'Inhaling'}]","[{'cui': 'C0042655', 'cui_str': 'Video'}, {'cui': 'C0184661', 'cui_str': 'Procedure'}, {'cui': 'C1321226', 'cui_str': 'Safety behavior'}, {'cui': 'C0336791', 'cui_str': 'Tool'}]","[{'cui': 'C1321226', 'cui_str': 'Safety behavior'}, {'cui': 'C0018724', 'cui_str': 'Health Care Providers'}, {'cui': 'C0036043', 'cui_str': 'Safety'}, {'cui': 'C0018684', 'cui_str': 'Health'}]",,0.036832,The reflective practice intervention group was found to have significantly higher scores on the CSBST at post-test and follow-up than the video alone group.,"[{'ForeName': 'Elizabeth L', 'Initials': 'EL', 'LastName': 'Beam', 'Affiliation': 'College of Nursing, University of Nebraska Medical Center, Omaha, Nebraska; Nebraska Biocontainment Unit, Omaha, Nebraska.

1282,32407654,Caffeine Increases Peripheral Fatigue in Low- but not in High-Performing Cyclists.,"The influence of cyclist's performance level on caffeine-induced increases in neuromuscular fatigue after a 4-km cycling TT was investigated. Nineteen cyclists performed a 4-km cycling TT one hour after ingesting caffeine (5 mg‧kg-1) or placebo (cellulose). Changes from baseline to post-exercise in voluntary activation (VA) and potentiated 1 Hz force twitch (Qtw,pot) were used as markers of central and peripheral fatigue, respectively. Participants were classified as ""high-performing"" (HP, n=8) or ""low-performing"" (LP, n=8) in accordance with their performance in placebo trial. Compared with placebo, caffeine increased the power, the anaerobic mechanical power and the anaerobic work, reducing the time to complete the trial for both groups (p<0.05). There was a group vs. supplement and group vs. supplement vs. trial interaction for Qtw,pot, where the post-exercise reduction was higher after caffeine compared with placebo in LP (Qtw,pot=-34±17 vs. -21±11%, p=0.02) but not in HP (Qtw,pot=-22±8 vs. -23±10%, p=0.64). There was no effect of caffeine on VA, but there was a group vs. trial interaction with lower post-exercise values in LP than in HP (p=0.03). Caffeine-induced improvement on 4-km cycling TT performance seems to be at the expense of greater locomotor muscle fatigue in low- but not in high-performing cyclists. BULLET POINTS -Caffeine improves exercise performance at the expense of a greater end-exercise peripheral fatigue in low-performing athletes. -Caffeine-induced improvement on exercise performance does not affect end-exercise peripheral fatigue in high-performing athletes. -High-performing athletes seems to have augmented tolerance to central fatigue during a high-intensity time-trial.",2020,"Compared with placebo, caffeine increased the power, the anaerobic mechanical power and the anaerobic work, reducing the time to complete the trial for both groups (p<0.05).",['Nineteen cyclists'],"['High', 'caffeine', 'Caffeine', 'placebo in LP', 'caffeine (5 mg‧kg-1) or placebo (cellulose', 'placebo, caffeine']","['4-km cycling TT performance', 'Peripheral Fatigue', 'locomotor muscle fatigue', 'anaerobic mechanical power and the anaerobic work', 'neuromuscular fatigue', 'exercise performance']","[{'cui': 'C0450337', 'cui_str': '19'}]","[{'cui': 'C0205250', 'cui_str': 'High'}, {'cui': 'C0006644', 'cui_str': 'Caffeine'}, {'cui': 'C0032042', 'cui_str': 'Sham Treatment'}, {'cui': 'C0007648', 'cui_str': 'Cellulose'}]","[{'cui': 'C0205100', 'cui_str': 'Peripheral'}, {'cui': 'C0015672', 'cui_str': 'Fatigue'}, {'cui': 'C0242979', 'cui_str': 'Muscle fatigue'}, {'cui': 'C0443254', 'cui_str': 'Mechanical'}, {'cui': 'C0043227', 'cui_str': 'Working'}, {'cui': 'C0234116', 'cui_str': 'Neuromuscular fatigue'}, {'cui': 'C0015259', 'cui_str': 'Exercise'}]",19.0,0.100991,"Compared with placebo, caffeine increased the power, the anaerobic mechanical power and the anaerobic work, reducing the time to complete the trial for both groups (p<0.05).","[{'ForeName': 'Pamela Souza', 'Initials': 'PS', 'LastName': 'Santos', 'Affiliation': 'Federal University of Parana, 28122, Department of Physical Education, Curitiba, Parana, Brazil.'}, {'ForeName': 'Leandro Camati', 'Initials': 'LC', 'LastName': 'Felippe', 'Affiliation': 'Federal University of Pernambuco, Sport Science Research Group, Department of Physical Education and Sports Science (CAV), Vitória do Santo Antao, Pernambuco, Brazil.'}, {'ForeName': 'Guilherme Assunção', 'Initials': 'GA', 'LastName': 'Ferreira', 'Affiliation': 'Federal University of Pernambuco, 28116, Sport Science Research Group, Department of Physical Education and Sports Science (CAV), Vitoria do Santo Antao, Pernambuco, Brazil.'}, {'ForeName': 'Sara Kely', 'Initials': 'SK', 'LastName': 'Learsi DA Silva Santos Alves', 'Affiliation': 'Federal University of Pernambuco, 28116, Sport Science Research Group, Department of Physical Education and Sports Science (CAV), Vitoria do Santo Antao, Pernambuco, Brazil.'}, {'ForeName': 'Patrícia Guimarães', 'Initials': 'PG', 'LastName': 'Couto', 'Affiliation': 'University of Sao Paulo, 28133, Endurance Sports Research Group (GEDAE-USP), Sao Paulo, São Paulo, Brazil ; patriciagcouto@usp.br.'}, {'ForeName': 'Romulo', 'Initials': 'R', 'LastName': 'Bertuzzi', 'Affiliation': 'University of Sao Paulo, 28133, Endurance Sports Research Group (GEDAE-USP), Sao Paulo, São Paulo, Brazil ; bertuzzi@usp.br.'}, {'ForeName': 'Gleber', 'Initials': 'G', 'LastName': 'Pereira', 'Affiliation': 'Federal University of Parana, 28122, Department of Physical Education, Curitiba, Brazil ; gleber.pereira@gmail.com.'}, {'ForeName': 'Adriano Eduardo', 'Initials': 'AE', 'LastName': 'Lima-Silva', 'Affiliation': 'Universidade Tecnologica Federal do Parana, 74354, Human Performance Research Group , Pedro Gusso Street, Neoville , Curitiba, Parana, Brazil , 81310-900 ; aesilva@utfpr.edu.br.'}]","Applied physiology, nutrition, and metabolism = Physiologie appliquee, nutrition et metabolisme",['10.1139/apnm-2019-0992']
1283,32407655,Methodology Matters: The Impact of Research Design on Conversational Entrainment Outcomes.,"Purpose Conversational entrainment describes the tendency for individuals to alter their communicative behaviors to more closely align with those of their conversation partner. This communication phenomenon has been widely studied, and thus, the methodologies used to examine it are diverse. Here, we summarize key differences in research design and present a test case to examine the effect of methodology on entrainment outcomes. Method Sixty neurotypical adults were randomly assigned to experimental groups formed by a 2 × 2 factorial combination of two independent variables: stimuli organization (blocked vs. random presentation) and stimuli modality (auditory-only vs. audiovisual stimuli). Individuals participated in a quasiconversational design in which the speech of a virtual interlocutor was manipulated to produce fast and slow speech rate conditions. Results There was a significant effect of stimuli organization on entrainment outcomes. Individuals in the blocked, but not the random, groups altered their speech rate to align with the speech rate of the virtual interlocutor. There were no effect of stimuli modality and no interaction between modality and organization on entrainment outcomes.

1284,32407810,Mifepristone-misoprostol versus misoprostol-alone regimen for medication abortion at ≥24 weeks' gestation.,"OBJECTIVE
To compare time from misoprostol initiation to fetal expulsion for mifepristone-misoprostol versus misoprostol-alone regimens of medication abortion performed at ≥24 weeks' gestation.
STUDY DESIGN
We conducted a retrospective study of medication abortion performed at ≥24 weeks' gestation between May 2016 and January 2018 at one site, comparing outcomes of patients receiving mifepristone-misoprostol versus misoprostol alone during two periods. All patients received feticidal injection and laminaria; the mifepristone-misoprostol group also received mifepristone 200 mg orally around the time of initial laminaria. Beginning 24-72 hours later (depending on cervical assessment), both groups received misoprostol buccally every two hours.
RESULTS
Analyses included 257 patients in the mifepristone-misoprostol group and 152 patients in the misoprostol-alone group. Median time from misoprostol initiation to fetal expulsion was similar between groups (4.8 hours v. 4.9 hours; p=0.43). Patients in the mifepristone-misoprostol group received less misoprostol overall (median [IQR]: 800 mcg [800-1200 mcg] vs. 1200 mcg [800-1600 mcg]; p<0.01) and fewer patients received a second round of laminaria (n=56, 22% vs. n=58, 33%; p<0.01) than the misoprostol-alone group. Seven patients (2%) were transferred to a hospital for complications; this proportion did not vary by regimen.
CONCLUSIONS
Addition of mifepristone was not associated with a reduction in induction interval at ≥24 weeks. However, patients in the mifepristone-misoprostol group received a lower total dose of misoprostol and were less likely to require two days of laminaria. The clinical significance of these differences is unclear, but may have implications for patient experience. Both regimens had low rates of complications.
IMPLICATIONS STATEMENT

Cadazolid is a novel quinoxolidinone antibiotic developed for treating Clostridium difficile infection. We aimed to investigate the safety and efficacy of cadazolid compared with vancomycin in patients with C difficile infection.
METHODS
IMPACT 1 and IMPACT 2 were identically designed, multicentre, double-blind, placebo-controlled, non-inferiority, randomised phase 3 trials. IMPACT 1 was done in Australia, Brazil, Canada, France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Peru, Poland, Romania, Spain, and the USA, and IMPACT 2 was done in Argentina, Belgium, Brazil, Canada, Chile, Croatia, Czech Republic, Greece, Hungary, Israel, Romania, Slovakia, South Korea, the UK, and the USA. Patients (aged 18 years or older) with mild-to-moderate or severe C difficile infection (diarrhoea with positive glutamate dehydrogenase and toxin A or B enzyme immunoassays) were randomly assigned (1:1) with a randomisation list stratified by centre and C difficile infection episode type (block size of four), and allocation was masked to investigators and participants. Patients received either oral cadazolid 250 mg twice daily with vancomycin-matching placebo capsule four times daily or oral vancomycin 125 mg four times a day with cadazolid-matching placebo suspension twice daily for 10 days, with 30 days of follow-up. The primary efficacy outcome was non-inferiority (margin -10%) of cadazolid versus vancomycin for clinical cure in the modified intention-to-treat and per-protocol populations. Clinical cure was defined as resolution of diarrhoea with no additional treatment for C difficile infection. These trials are registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, numbers NCT01987895 (IMPACT 1) and NCT01983683 (IMPACT 2).
FINDINGS
Between March 28, 2014, and March 24, 2017, for IMPACT 1, and Dec 13, 2013, and May 2, 2017, for IMPACT 2, 1263 participants were randomly assigned to receive cadazolid (306 in IMPACT 1 and 298 in IMPACT 2) or vancomycin (326 in IMPACT 1 and 311 in IMPACT 2). In the modified intention-to-treat population in IMPACT 1, 253 (84%) of 302 had clinical cure in the cadazolid group versus 271 (85%) of 318 in the vancomycin group. In IMPACT 2, 235 (81%) of 290 versus 258 (86%) of 301 had clinical cure. In the per-protocol population, 247 (88%) of 282 versus 264 (92%) of 288 had clinical cure in IMPACT 1 and 214 (87%) of 247 versus 237 (92%) of 259 in IMPACT 2. Non-inferiority for clinical cure to vancomycin was shown in IMPACT 1 but not in IMPACT 2 (IMPACT 1 treatment difference: -1·4 [95% CI -7·2 to 4·3] for modified intention to treat and -4·1 [-9·2 to 1·0] for per protocol; IMPACT 2: -4·7 [-10·7 to 1·3] for modified intention to treat and -4·9 [-10·4 to 0·6] for per protocol). The safety and tolerability profiles of the two antibiotics were similar.
INTERPRETATION
Cadazolid was safe and well tolerated but did not achieve its primary endpoint of non-inferiority to vancomycin for clinical cure in one of two phase 3 C difficile infection trials. Therefore, further commercial development of cadazolid for C difficile infection is unlikely.

1286,28916479,Dietary Nitrate Increases VO 2 peak and Performance but Does Not Alter Ventilation or Efficiency in Patients With Heart Failure With Reduced Ejection Fraction.,"BACKGROUND
Patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) exhibit lower efficiency, dyspnea, and diminished peak oxygen uptake (VO 2 peak) during exercise. Dietary nitrate (NO 3 - ), a source of nitric oxide (NO), has improved these measures in some studies of other populations. We determined the effects of acute NO 3 - ingestion on exercise responses in 8 patients with HFrEF using a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, crossover design.
METHODS AND RESULTS
Plasma NO 3 - , nitrite (NO 2 - ), and breath NO were measured at multiple time points and respiratory gas exchange was determined during exercise after ingestion of beetroot juice containing or devoid of 11.2 mmol of NO 3 - . NO 3 - intake increased (P < .05-0.001) plasma NO 3 - and NO 2 - and breath NO by 1469 ± 245%, 105 ± 34%, and 60 ± 18%, respectively. Efficiency and ventilation during exercise were unchanged. However, NO 3 - ingestion increased (P < .05) VO 2 peak by 8 ± 2% (ie, from 21.4 ± 2.1 to 23.0 ± 2.3 mL . min -1. kg -1 ). Time to fatigue improved (P < .05) by 7 ± 3 % (ie, from 582 ± 84 to 612 ± 81 seconds).
CONCLUSIONS
Acute dietary NO 3 - intake increases VO 2 peak and performance in patients with HFrEF. These data, in conjunction with our recent data demonstrating that dietary NO 3 - also improves muscle contractile function, suggest that dietary NO 3 - supplementation may be a valuable means of enhancing exercise capacity in this population.",2018,"However, NO 3 - ingestion increased (P < .05) VO 2 peak by 8 ± 2% (ie, from 21.4 ± 2.1 to 23.0 ± 2.3 mL .","['Patients With Heart Failure With Reduced Ejection Fraction', '8 patients with HFrEF', 'patients with HFrEF', 'Patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF']","['acute NO 3 - ingestion', 'Dietary nitrate (NO 3 - ', 'placebo']","['Efficiency and ventilation during exercise', 'muscle contractile function', 'Time to fatigue', 'multiple time points and respiratory gas exchange', 'NO 3 - , nitrite (NO 2 - ), and breath', 'peak oxygen uptake']","[{'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C0018801', 'cui_str': 'Cardiac Failure'}, {'cui': 'C0392756', 'cui_str': 'Reduced (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0489482', 'cui_str': 'Ejection fraction'}]","[{'cui': 'C0232478', 'cui_str': 'Ingestion'}, {'cui': 'C0028125', 'cui_str': 'Nitrates'}, {'cui': 'C1696465', 'cui_str': 'placebo'}]","[{'cui': 'C0013682', 'cui_str': 'Efficiency'}, {'cui': 'C2945579', 'cui_str': 'Ventilation, function (observable entity)'}, {'cui': 'C0587107', 'cui_str': 'During exercise (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0026845', 'cui_str': 'Muscle Tissue'}, {'cui': 'C0031843', 'cui_str': 'function'}, {'cui': 'C1632851', 'cui_str': 'Times'}, {'cui': 'C0015672', 'cui_str': 'Fatigue'}, {'cui': 'C0439064', 'cui_str': 'Numerous (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0596601', 'cui_str': 'Gas'}, {'cui': 'C0028137', 'cui_str': 'Nitrites'}, {'cui': 'C0225386', 'cui_str': 'Breath (substance)'}, {'cui': 'C0444505', 'cui_str': 'Peak (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0429627', 'cui_str': 'Oxygen uptake (observable entity)'}]",8.0,0.0838639,"However, NO 3 - ingestion increased (P < .05) VO 2 peak by 8 ± 2% (ie, from 21.4 ± 2.1 to 23.0 ± 2.3 mL .","[{'ForeName': 'Andrew R', 'Initials': 'AR', 'LastName': 'Coggan', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Kinesiology, Indiana University Purdue University Indianapolis, Indianapolis, Indiana; Department of Cellular and Integrative Physiology, Indiana University Purdue University Indianapolis, Indianapolis, Indiana; Department of Radiology, Washington University School of Medicine, St. Louis, Missouri.

The aim of this study is to understand the impact of a 5-day period of nap restriction on sleep patterns and cognitive function in typically developing preschoolers, aged 3 to 4 years.
METHOD
Following 1 week of baseline assessment, 28 children were randomly assigned to either a ""napping as usual"" group ( n = 15) or a 5-day period of nap restriction ( n = 13). Sleep was assessed with sleep logs and actigraphy; cognition was assessed at baseline and at the end of the intervention week.
RESULTS
No group differences in sleep or cognitive function were observed at baseline. For the no-nap group, the 5-day period of daytime nap restriction resulted in increased nighttime sleep. Children in the no-nap group also showed a significant improvement in attentional control compared with baseline, whereas no such changes were observed among children in the napping-as-usual group.

1288,29396374,"Efficacy of vildagliptin for prevention of postpartum diabetes in women with a recent history of insulin-requiring gestational diabetes: A phase II, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study.","OBJECTIVE
Women with insulin-requiring gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) are at high risk of developing diabetes within a few years postpartum. We implemented this phase II study to test the hypothesis that vildagliptin, a dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitor, is superior to placebo in terms of reducing the risk of postpartum diabetes.
METHODS
Women with insulin-requiring GDM were randomized to either placebo or 50 mg vildagliptin twice daily for 24 months followed by a 12-month observation period (EudraCT: 2007-000634-39). Both groups received lifestyle counseling. The primary efficacy outcomes were the diagnosis of diabetes (American Diabetes Association (ADA) criteria) or impaired fasting glucose (IFG)/impaired glucose tolerance (IGT).
RESULTS
Between 2008 and 2015, 113 patients (58 vildagliptin, 55 placebo) were randomized within 2.2-10.4 (median 8.6) months after delivery. At the interim analysis, nine diabetic events and 28 IFG/IGT events had occurred. Fifty-two women withdrew before completing the treatment phase. Because of the low diabetes rate, the study was terminated. Lifestyle adherence was similar in both groups. At 24 months, the cumulative probability of postpartum diabetes was 3% and 5% (hazard ratio: 1.03; 95% confidence interval: 0.15-7.36) and IFG/IGT was 43% and 22% (hazard ratio: 0.55; 95% confidence interval: 0.26-1.19) in the placebo and vildagliptin groups, respectively. Vildagliptin was well tolerated with no unexpected adverse events.
CONCLUSIONS
The study did not show significant superiority of vildagliptin over placebo in terms of reducing the risk of postpartum diabetes. However, treatment was safe and suggested some improvements in glycemic control, insulin resistance, and β-cell function. The study identified critical issues in performing clinical trials in the early postpartum period in women with GDM hampering efficacy assessments.

1289,30679107,"Four courses versus eight courses of adjuvant S-1 for patients with stage II gastric cancer (JCOG1104 [OPAS-1]): an open-label, phase 3, non-inferiority, randomised trial.","BACKGROUND
Postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy with S-1 for 1 year (corresponding to eight courses) is standard care for stage II gastric cancer. Whether the duration of S-1 could be shortened to 6 months (corresponding to four courses) without worsening survival is unclear. The aim of this study was to investigate the non-inferiority of four courses of S-1 compared with eight courses of S-1 for patients with stage II gastric cancer.
METHODS
We did a phase 3, open-label, randomised controlled, non-inferiority trial at 59 hospitals in Japan. Patients aged 20-80 years with stage II adenocarcinoma of the stomach were randomly assigned (1:1) to eight courses or four courses of S-1. Randomisation was done by the Japan Clinical Oncology Group Data Center website, using a minimisation method with a random component using institution, stage (IIA vs IIB), age (<70 years vs ≥70 years), and mode of operation (open gastrectomy with bursectomy vs open gastrectomy without bursectomy vs laparoscopic gastrectomy) as adjustment factors. One course was 80 mg/day per m 2 of S-1 administered for 4 weeks followed by a rest for 2 weeks. The primary endpoint was relapse-free survival, analysed by intention to treat, with a non-inferiority margin for the hazard ratio (HR) set at 1·37. This study is registered at UMIN-Clinical Trial Registry, number UMIN000007306.
FINDINGS
Between Feb 16, 2012, and March 19, 2017, 590 patients were enrolled (295 per group). 528 (89%) patients were analysed at the first planned interim analysis in March, 2017, at which time the point estimate of HR for the four-course group compared with the eight-course group was 2·52 (95% CI 1·11-5·77), which exceeded 1·37 and met the prespecified criteria for early termination. Predictive probability for showing non-inferiority at the final analysis was calculated to be 2·9%. The study was stopped for futility. Updated 3-year relapse-free survival analysed in May, 2017, was 93·1% (95% CI 87·8-96·1) for the eight-course group and 89·8% (84·2-93·5) for the four-course group (HR 1·84, 95% CI 0·93-3·63). The most common grade 3-4 adverse event was neutropenia, observed in 46 (16%) patients in the eight-course group and 51 (17%) patients in the four-course group.
INTERPRETATION
S-1 for 1 year should remain as standard adjuvant chemotherapy for stage II gastric cancer.

1290,30698279,Vitamin D and Falls in Older African American Women: The PODA Randomized Clinical Trial.,"BACKGROUND
Limited information is available on the influence of vitamin D on falls in older high-functioning black American women. Endocrine Society guidelines propose serum 25(OH)D levels over 30 ng/mL.
OBJECTIVE
To determine if maintenance of serum 25(OH)D above 30 ng/mL protects against falls.
DESIGN
The Physical Performance, Osteoporosis and Vitamin D in African American Women (PODA) trial had a prospective, randomized, placebo-controlled, double-dummy design with two arms: one with placebo and one with vitamin D 3 adjusted to maintain serum 25(OH)D above 30 ng/mL. The primary outcomes were the prevention of bone loss and the decline in physical performance.
PATIENTS
The target population was healthy black women older than 60 years with serum 25(OH)D between 8 and 26 ng/mL. The trial was 3 years in duration with a falls questionnaire administered every 3 months. A total of 260 women entered the study, and 184 completed the 3 years. Mean age was 68.2 years.
SETTING
Research center in an academic health center.
MAIN OUTCOMES MEASURE
Prevention of falls.
INTERVENTION
Participants were randomly assigned to placebo or active vitamin D. Vitamin D 3 dose was adjusted to maintain serum 25(OH)D above 30 ng/mL in the active group using a double-dummy design.
RESULTS
Baseline 25(OH)D was 22 ng/mL. Mean serum 25(OH)D reached 47 ng/mL in the active group compared with 21 ng/mL in the placebo group. There were 14.2% falls in the previous year recalled at baseline. During the study, 46% reported falling in the treatment group compared with 47% in the placebo group. There was no association of serum 25(OH)D or vitamin D dose with the risk of falling.
CONCLUSIONS
There is no benefit of maintaining serum 25(OH)D above 30 ng/mL compared with the Institute of Medicine recommendation (20 ng/mL) in preventing falls in healthy older black American women.

1291,31685694,Estimating the social value of mechanical thrombectomy randomized trials on an established stroke network.,"BACKGROUND
Given the relative strength of prior mechanical thrombectomy (MT) data in face of the perceived poor natural history of emergent large vessel occlusion strokes, randomization to medical therapy during the recent clinical MT trials raised ethical challenges at individual and institutional levels despite overall clinical equipoise.
METHODS
In a thrombectomy stroke registry, we compared treatment rates preceding and following the SWIFT-PRIME and DAWN trials. Based on effect sizes of treatment in both trials, we estimated missed opportunities due to randomization to medical therapy and estimated the societal benefit resulting from additional patients who benefited as a result of these studies.
RESULTS
The average monthly thrombectomy rate in the SWIFT-PRIME time window increased from 14.1±4 patients-per-month (ppm) to 23.8±6 ppm (p<0·001). Twelve subjects were enrolled in SWIFT-PRIME and we estimated a missed opportunity of benefiting 2.3 of six subjects randomized to medical therapy. This was offset by providing treatment to an additional 9.7 ppm, resulting in an additional functional benefit to 3.7 ppm. Similarly, the thrombectomy rate in the DAWN window increased from 8.6±4 ppm pre-DAWN to 11.9±3.6 ppm post-DAWN (p<0.01). 38 subjects were enrolled in the DAWN trial with a missed opportunity to benefit eight of 16 subjects randomized to medical therapy. This was offset by the ability to offer MT to an additional 3.3 ppm, bringing definite benefit to an additional 1.65 ppm.
CONCLUSION
Completion of recent trials resulted in observable increases in rates of thrombectomy, translating to functional benefits that rapidly offset any missed opportunities due to randomization to medical therapy arms.",2020,"Similarly, the thrombectomy rate in the DAWN window increased from 8.6±4 ppm pre-DAWN to 11.9±3.6 ppm post-DAWN (p<0.01).","['38 subjects were enrolled in the DAWN trial with a missed opportunity to benefit eight of 16 subjects randomized to', 'Twelve subjects were enrolled in SWIFT-PRIME and we estimated a missed opportunity of benefiting 2.3 of six subjects randomized to']",['medical therapy'],[],"[{'cui': 'C1831581', 'cui_str': 'Subfamily Apodinae'}]","[{'cui': 'C0418981', 'cui_str': 'Medical therapy (procedure)'}]",[],38.0,0.0553262,"Similarly, the thrombectomy rate in the DAWN window increased from 8.6±4 ppm pre-DAWN to 11.9±3.6 ppm post-DAWN (p<0.01).","[{'ForeName': 'Gabriel Martins', 'Initials': 'GM', 'LastName': 'Rodrigues', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Neurology, Marcus Stroke & Neuroscience Center - Grady Memorial Hospital / Emory University, Atlanta, Georgia, United States.'}, {'ForeName': 'Diogo C', 'Initials': 'DC', 'LastName': 'Haussen', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Neurology, Marcus Stroke & Neuroscience Center - Grady Memorial Hospital / Emory University, Atlanta, Georgia, United States.'}, {'ForeName': 'Mehdi', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Bouslama', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Neurology, Marcus Stroke & Neuroscience Center - Grady Memorial Hospital / Emory University, Atlanta, Georgia, United States.'}, {'ForeName': 'Srikant', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Rangaraju', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Neurology, Marcus Stroke & Neuroscience Center - Grady Memorial Hospital / Emory University, Atlanta, Georgia, United States.'}, {'ForeName': 'Michael R', 'Initials': 'MR', 'LastName': 'Frankel', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Neurology, Marcus Stroke & Neuroscience Center - Grady Memorial Hospital / Emory University, Atlanta, Georgia, United States.'}, {'ForeName': 'Raul G', 'Initials': 'RG', 'LastName': 'Nogueira', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Neurology, Marcus Stroke & Neuroscience Center - Grady Memorial Hospital / Emory University, Atlanta, Georgia, United States rnoguei@emory.edu.'}]",Journal of neurointerventional surgery,['10.1136/neurintsurg-2019-015204']
1292,32408253,Effect of amino acids on IGF1 gene expression in human myotubes and skeletal muscle.,"OBJECTIVE
Insulin-like growth factor I (IGF1) is an important regulator of collagen and extracellular matrix protein expression. We aimed to evaluate the effect of amino acids (AAs) on expression of IGF1 and IGF1-dependent genes in human myotubes and skeletal muscle and supposed that AAs administration increases IGF1 levels in blood and expression of IGF1 and IGF1-dependent genes in trained skeletal muscle, thereby reducing training-induced muscle damage.
DESIGN
Human myotubes were incubated with Arg and Leu for 24 h. Then, the effects of long-term branched chain AAs administration (10 weeks, 0.1 g/kg body mass/day) to volunteers (six subjects per AAs and placebo groups) performing large training volumes regularly (cross country skiers, training twice a day) were examined.
RESULTS
Incubating the myotubes with AAs increases expression of IGF1 mRNA isoforms and IGF1 secretion by 2-3 times. In athletes, long-term AAs administration increased basal blood levels of IGF1 (~50%) and expression of IGF1Ea mRNA slightly in skeletal muscle. There is no marked increase in expression of COL1A1, COL3A1, COL5A1, and LOX genes in skeletal muscle after AAs administration. However, expression of these genes in the combined group (placebo + AAs; n = 12) significantly correlated with the expression of IGF1Ea mRNA in muscle and did not correlate with IGF1 levels in the blood.
CONCLUSIONS
AAs administration increases IGF1 expression in vitro and in vivo. To obtain more pronounced changes in expression of IGF1 and IGF1-dependent genes in skeletal muscle, it may be necessary to increase the dose and/or duration of AAs administration.",2020,"There is no marked increase in expression of COL1A1, COL3A1, COL5A1, and LOX genes in skeletal muscle after AAs administration.","['human myotubes and skeletal muscle', 'Human myotubes were incubated with Arg and Leu for 24\xa0h']","['Insulin-like growth factor', 'amino acids', 'amino acids (AAs']","['IGF1 gene expression', 'IGF1 expression', 'basal blood levels of IGF1', 'expression of IGF1 mRNA isoforms and IGF1 secretion', 'expression of IGF1Ea mRNA', 'expression of COL1A1, COL3A1, COL5A1, and LOX genes in skeletal muscle', 'IGF1 levels']","[{'cui': 'C0086418', 'cui_str': 'Homo sapiens'}, {'cui': 'C1704336', 'cui_str': 'Skeletal muscle fiber'}, {'cui': 'C0242692', 'cui_str': 'Skeletal muscle structure'}, {'cui': 'C0003761', 'cui_str': 'Argentina'}, {'cui': 'C0023401', 'cui_str': 'Leucine'}]","[{'cui': 'C0037657', 'cui_str': 'Somatomedin'}, {'cui': 'C0002520', 'cui_str': 'amino acids'}]","[{'cui': 'C0202220', 'cui_str': 'Somatomedin-C measurement'}, {'cui': 'C0017262', 'cui_str': 'Gene expression'}, {'cui': 'C0015457', 'cui_str': 'Facial expression'}, {'cui': 'C0205112', 'cui_str': 'Basal'}, {'cui': 'C0005767', 'cui_str': 'Blood'}, {'cui': 'C0441889', 'cui_str': 'Levels'}, {'cui': 'C0035696', 'cui_str': 'Messenger RNA'}, {'cui': 'C0597298', 'cui_str': 'Isoforms'}, {'cui': 'C0036536', 'cui_str': 'secretion'}, {'cui': 'C0972255', 'cui_str': 'type I collagen alpha 1'}, {'cui': 'C0024375', 'cui_str': 'Protein-lysine 6-oxidase'}, {'cui': 'C0017337', 'cui_str': 'Gene'}, {'cui': 'C0242692', 'cui_str': 'Skeletal muscle structure'}]",,0.0302591,"There is no marked increase in expression of COL1A1, COL3A1, COL5A1, and LOX genes in skeletal muscle after AAs administration.","[{'ForeName': 'Egor M', 'Initials': 'EM', 'LastName': 'Lednev', 'Affiliation': 'Institute of Biomedical Problems of the RAS, 76A Khoroshevskoye Shosse, Moscow 123007, Russian Federation.

1293,30685489,"Laparoscopic versus open pancreatoduodenectomy for pancreatic or periampullary tumours (LEOPARD-2): a multicentre, patient-blinded, randomised controlled phase 2/3 trial.","BACKGROUND
Laparoscopic pancreatoduodenectomy may improve postoperative recovery compared with open pancreatoduodenectomy. However, there are concerns that the extensive learning curve of this complex procedure could increase the risk of complications. We aimed to assess whether laparoscopic pancreatoduodenectomy could reduce time to functional recovery compared with open pancreatoduodenectomy.
METHODS
This multicentre, patient-blinded, parallel-group, randomised controlled phase 2/3 trial was performed in four centres in the Netherlands that each do 20 or more pancreatoduodenectomies annually; surgeons had to have completed a dedicated training programme for laparoscopic pancreatoduodenectomy and have done 20 or more laparoscopic pancreatoduodenectomies before trial participation. Patients with a benign, premalignant, or malignant indication for pancreatoduodenectomy, without signs of vascular involvement, were randomly assigned (1:1) to undergo either laparoscopic or open pancreatoduodenectomy using a central web-based system. Randomisation was stratified for annual case volume and preoperative estimated risk of pancreatic fistula. Patients were blinded to treatment allocation. Analysis was done according to the intention-to-treat principle. The main objective of the phase 2 part of the trial was to assess the safety of laparoscopic pancreatoduodenectomy (complications and mortality), and the primary outcome of phase 3 was time to functional recovery in days, defined as all of the following: adequate pain control with only oral analgesia; independent mobility; ability to maintain more than 50% of the daily required caloric intake; no need for intravenous fluid administration; and no signs of infection (temperature <38·5°C). This trial is registered with Trialregister.nl, number NTR5689.
FINDINGS
Between May 13 and Dec 20, 2016, 42 patients were randomised in the phase 2 part of the trial. Two patients did not receive surgery and were excluded from analyses in accordance with the study protocol. Three (15%) of 20 patients died within 90 days after laparoscopic pancreatoduodenectomy, compared with none of 20 patients after open pancreatoduodenectomy. Based on safety data from the phase 2 part of the trial, the data and safety monitoring board and protocol committee agreed to proceed with phase 3. Between Jan 31 and Nov 14, 2017, 63 additional patients were randomised in phase 3 of the trial. Four patients did not receive surgery and were excluded from analyses in accordance with the study protocol. After randomisation of 105 patients (combining patients from both phase 2 and phase 3), of whom 99 underwent surgery, the trial was prematurely terminated by the data and safety monitoring board because of a difference in 90-day complication-related mortality (five [10%] of 50 patients in the laparoscopic pancreatoduodenectomy group vs one [2%] of 49 in the open pancreatoduodenectomy group; risk ratio [RR] 4·90 [95% CI 0·59-40·44]; p=0·20). Median time to functional recovery was 10 days (95% CI 5-15) after laparoscopic pancreatoduodenectomy versus 8 days (95% CI 7-9) after open pancreatoduodenectomy (log-rank p=0·80). Clavien-Dindo grade III or higher complications (25 [50%] of 50 patients after laparoscopic pancreatoduodenectomy vs 19 [39%] of 49 after open pancreatoduodenectomy; RR 1·29 [95% CI 0·82-2·02]; p=0·26) and grade B/C postoperative pancreatic fistulas (14 [28%] vs 12 [24%]; RR 1·14 [95% CI 0·59-2·22]; p=0·69) were comparable between groups.
INTERPRETATION
Although not statistically significant, laparoscopic pancreatoduodenectomy was associated with more complication-related deaths than was open pancreatoduodenectomy, and there was no difference between groups in time to functional recovery. These safety concerns were unexpected and worrisome, especially in the setting of trained surgeons working in centres performing 20 or more pancreatoduodenectomies annually. Experience, learning curve, and annual volume might have influenced the outcomes; future research should focus on these issues.

1294,32407901,"A novel, extended prophylactic antibiotic regimen in preterm pre-labor rupture of membranes: a randomized trial.","OBJECTIVES
Prophylactic antibiotic use in preterm pre-labor rupture of membranes (PPROM) is associated with a significant reduction in intra-amniotic infection and improved neonatal outcome. However, data is insufficient to determine the optimal antibiotic regimen. Considering the rise in Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumonia early-onset sepsis rate and the emergence of ampicillin resistance, our aim is to compare the efficiency of two antibiotic regimens in prolonging pregnancy and reducing infectious morbidity.
DESIGN
This multicenter randomized unblinded controlled prospective trial compared two antibiotic prophylactic protocols in PPROM: ampicillin + roxithromycin vs cefuroxime + roxithromycin in 84 women with PPROM, from 12/2015-12/2019.
RESULTS
The median latency period was significantly longer (p = 0.039) in the cefuroxime + roxithromycin group (4.63 [0.59-50.18] days) than in the ampicillin + roxithromycin group (2.3 [0.15-58.3] days). Neonatal admission to neonatal intensive care unit rate, hospitalization length, neonatal respiratory distress syndrome, neonatal fever, and need for respiratory support or mechanical ventilation, were similar between the groups. K. pneumonia cultures were significantly more frequent in the ampicillin + roxithromycin group. None of the cultures were group B Streptococcus positive.
CONCLUSIONS
To prolong latency period and reduce gram-negative early-onset sepsis, cefuroxime + roxithromycin is recommended as the first-line protocol in PPROM.

1295,30683239,Cost-effectiveness of urine-based tuberculosis screening in hospitalised patients with HIV in Africa: a microsimulation modelling study.,"BACKGROUND
Testing urine improves the number of tuberculosis diagnoses made among patients in hospital with HIV. In conjunction with the two-country randomised Rapid Urine-based Screening for Tuberculosis to Reduce AIDS-related Mortality in Hospitalised Patients in Africa (STAMP) trial, we used a microsimulation model to estimate the effects on clinical outcomes and the cost-effectiveness of adding urine-based tuberculosis screening to sputum screening for hospitalised patients with HIV.
METHODS
We compared two tuberculosis screening strategies used irrespective of symptoms among hospitalised patients with HIV in Malawi and South Africa: a GeneXpert assay (Cepheid, Sunnyvale, CA, USA) for Mycobacterium tuberculosis and rifampicin resistance (Xpert) in sputum samples (standard of care) versus sputum Xpert combined with a lateral flow assay for M tuberculosis lipoarabinomannan in urine (Determine TB-LAM Ag test, Abbott, Waltham, MA, USA [formerly Alere]; TB-LAM) and concentrated urine Xpert (intervention). A cohort of simulated patients was modelled using selected characteristics of participants, tuberculosis diagnostic yields, and use of hospital resources in the STAMP trial. We calibrated 2-month model outputs to the STAMP trial results and projected clinical and economic outcomes at 2 years, 5 years, and over a lifetime. We judged the intervention to be cost-effective if the incremental cost-effectiveness ratio (ICER) was less than US$750/year of life saved (YLS) in Malawi and $940/YLS in South Africa. A modified intervention of adding only TB-LAM to the standard of care was also evaluated. We did a budget impact analysis of countrywide implementation of the intervention.
FINDINGS
The intervention increased life expectancy by 0·5-1·2 years and was cost-effective, with an ICER of $450/YLS in Malawi and $840/YLS in South Africa. The ICERs decreased over time. At lifetime horizon, the intervention remained cost-effective under nearly all modelled assumptions. The modified intervention was at least as cost-effective as the intervention (ICERs $420/YLS in Malawi and $810/YLS in South Africa). Over 5 years, the intervention would save around 51 000 years of life in Malawi and around 171 000 years of life in South Africa. Health-care expenditure for screened individuals was estimated to increase by $37 million (10·8%) and $261 million (2·8%), respectively.
INTERPRETATION
Urine-based tuberculosis screening of all hospitalised patients with HIV could increase life expectancy and be cost-effective in resource-limited settings. Urine TB-LAM is especially attractive because of high incremental diagnostic yield and low additional cost compared with sputum Xpert, making a compelling case for expanding its use to all hospitalised patients with HIV in areas with high HIV burden and endemic tuberculosis.

1296,32407947,"Intralymphatic immunotherapy for mountain cedar pollinosis: A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial.","BACKGROUND
Allergen immunotherapy can provide long-term benefits, including symptomatic relief and reduced disease progression, but requires a lengthy regimen that presents barriers to patient adherence. Thus, there is a need for improved approaches to immunotherapy. Recently, several clinical trials have reported successful results from intralymphatic immunotherapy.
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of intralymphatic immunotherapy for allergies caused by mountain cedar pollen in a proof-of-concept study.
METHODS
Twenty-one patients with allergic rhinoconjunctivitis due to mountain cedar pollen were randomized to receive three monthly intralymphatic injections of allergenic extract or placebo prior to the 2018-2019 mountain cedar pollen season. Safety was monitored during treatment thru the end of pollen season using structured and spontaneous reports. Clinical efficacy information was collected using a daily electronic diary of symptoms and allergy medication. Allergen-specific serum IgE was assessed before treatment and at the end of the study.
RESULTS
There were no serious adverse events or systemic reactions in either group. Four patients experienced mild injection-site reactions. Patients receiving intralymphatic immunotherapy experienced a significant improvement in allergy symptoms and medication use relative to patients receiving placebo (p < 0.001) and the active treatment group had lower average total combined scores on 20 of 27 days during peak pollen season (p < 0.05). There was not a significant difference between groups in changes to mean mountain cedar-specific serum IgE levels.
CONCLUSION
In this proof-of-concept trial, intralymphatic immunotherapy was well tolerated and reduced the symptoms and medication use associated with allergic rhinoconjunctivitis caused by mountain cedar pollen.",2020,Patients receiving intralymphatic immunotherapy experienced a significant improvement in allergy symptoms and medication use relative to patients receiving placebo (p < 0.001) and the active treatment group had lower average total combined scores on 20 of 27 days during peak pollen season (p < 0.05).,"['mountain cedar pollinosis', 'prior to the 2018-2019 mountain cedar pollen season', 'Twenty-one patients with allergic rhinoconjunctivitis due to mountain cedar pollen']","['allergenic extract or placebo', 'intralymphatic immunotherapy', 'Intralymphatic immunotherapy', 'placebo']","['Safety', 'allergy symptoms and medication use relative', 'serious adverse events or systemic reactions', 'efficacy, safety and tolerability', 'mild injection-site reactions', 'mean mountain cedar-specific serum IgE levels', 'average total combined scores']","[{'cui': 'C0330154', 'cui_str': 'Juniperus mexicana'}, {'cui': 'C0018621', 'cui_str': 'Seasonal allergic rhinitis'}, {'cui': 'C0332152', 'cui_str': 'Before'}, {'cui': 'C0440386', 'cui_str': 'Mountain cedar pollen'}, {'cui': 'C0036497', 'cui_str': 'Seasons'}, {'cui': 'C3715213', 'cui_str': '21'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patient'}, {'cui': 'C0861154', 'cui_str': 'Allergic rhinoconjunctivitis'}, {'cui': 'C0678226', 'cui_str': 'Due to'}]","[{'cui': 'C0440016', 'cui_str': 'Allergenic extract'}, {'cui': 'C0032042', 'cui_str': 'Sham Treatment'}, {'cui': 'C1512956', 'cui_str': 'Intralymphatic route'}, {'cui': 'C0005525', 'cui_str': 'Modifiers, Biological Response'}]","[{'cui': 'C0036043', 'cui_str': 'Safety'}, {'cui': 'C0002111', 'cui_str': 'Allergy - specialty'}, {'cui': 'C0683368', 'cui_str': 'symptoms'}, {'cui': 'C0013227', 'cui_str': 'Pharmaceutical / biologic product'}, {'cui': 'C0042153', 'cui_str': 'utilization'}, {'cui': 'C0080103', 'cui_str': 'Relative'}, {'cui': 'C0877248', 'cui_str': 'Adverse event'}, {'cui': 'C0205373', 'cui_str': 'Systemic'}, {'cui': 'C0443286', 'cui_str': 'Reaction'}, {'cui': 'C1280519', 'cui_str': 'Effectiveness'}, {'cui': 'C1513302', 'cui_str': 'Common terminology criteria for adverse events grade 1'}, {'cui': 'C0151735', 'cui_str': 'Injection site reaction'}, {'cui': 'C0444504', 'cui_str': 'Mean'}, {'cui': 'C0330154', 'cui_str': 'Juniperus mexicana'}, {'cui': 'C0205369', 'cui_str': 'Specific'}, {'cui': 'C0229671', 'cui_str': 'Serum'}, {'cui': 'C0020846', 'cui_str': 'Immunoglobulin E'}, {'cui': 'C0441889', 'cui_str': 'Levels'}, {'cui': 'C0439810', 'cui_str': 'Total'}, {'cui': 'C0449820', 'cui_str': 'Score'}]",21.0,0.239599,Patients receiving intralymphatic immunotherapy experienced a significant improvement in allergy symptoms and medication use relative to patients receiving placebo (p < 0.001) and the active treatment group had lower average total combined scores on 20 of 27 days during peak pollen season (p < 0.05).,"[{'ForeName': 'Christopher', 'Initials': 'C', 'LastName': 'Thompson', 'Affiliation': 'Aspire Allergy & Sinus, Austin, TX.

1297,31465818,Randomized controlled clinical trial of resin infiltration in primary molars: 2 years follow-up.,"OBJECTIVE
The aim of this split-mouth, randomized, controlled clinical trial was to evaluate the efficacy of resin infiltration in controlling the progression of non-cavitated proximal lesions in primary molars after two-years follow-up.
METHODS
Fifty healthy children presenting at least two primary molars with proximal lesion detected radiographically (in the inner half of enamel or the outer third of dentin) were included in the study. The proximal lesions were randomly allocated into resin infltration + flossing (test group) or flossing (control group). All patients received oral hygiene instructions for daily brushing with fluoride toothpaste (1100 ppmF) and flossing. The proportion of caries progression was compared using the McNemar test. The main outcome after 2-years, caries progression in the radiography was assessed by pair-wise reading by an independent examiner who was blind regarding the treatment.
RESULTS
The sample comprised 28 (56%) girls and 22 (44%) boys with a defs of 7,3 (SD = 6,5), mainly of moderate (46%) to high (48%) caries risk. Results after one year were published previously. After 2-years, 29 (58%) patients were assessed. Caries progression was observed in 24.1% (7/29) of the test lesions, compared with 55.2% (16/29) of the control lesions (p = 0.012). The therapeutic effect was 31.1% and the relative risk reduction (RRR) was 56.3%. Eigth lesions from the control group and two lesions from the test group progressed to the inner third of dentin and were restored.
CONCLUSIONS
In conclusion, resin infiltration was more efficacious in controlling proximal caries lesions in primary molars than non-invasive approach alone.

1298,32107269,"Electroacupuncture for treatment-resistant insomnia: study protocol for a randomised, controlled, assessor-blinded, pilot clinical trial.","INTRODUCTION
A considerable number of insomnia patients experience sleep disturbance even with long-term use of hypnotic medication. Previous studies have indicated that electroacupuncture (EA) could be an efficacious treatment for managing insomnia. However, few trials have been conducted to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of EA for treatment-resistant insomnia. This pilot study aims to explore the feasibility and preliminary effectiveness and safety of EA as an adjunct treatment for treatment-resistant insomnia.
METHODS AND ANALYSIS
This is a multicentre, randomised, usual care controlled and assessor-blinded pilot study protocol. Fifty patients presenting with sleep problems who have been taking hypnotic medication for more than 3 months will be randomly allocated to either an EA group or a usual care group at a 1:1 ratio. The EA group will undergo 12 EA treatment sessions twice a week for 6 weeks whereas the usual care group will not receive EA treatment. All the participants will receive a brochure containing educational information on sleep hygiene. The primary outcome will be the measured mean change of the total score of the Insomnia Severity Index from the baseline to week 7. The secondary outcome regarding sleep quality will be measured using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, a sleep diary and actigraphy. Moreover, we will assess the quality of life, the direct and indirect cost of treating insomnia for economic evaluation. After 4 weeks, the subjects will visit the research sites for a follow-up assessment.
ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION
Ethical approval of this study protocol was established by the institutional review boards of the each involved study site. All potential subjects will be provided written informed consent. The results of this study will be accessible in peer-reviewed publications and be presented at academic conference.

1299,31687762,Efficacy and safety of edoxaban compared with warfarin according to the burden of diseases in patients with atrial fibrillation: insights from the ENGAGE AF-TIMI 48 trial.,"AIMS
Non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants represent a new option for prevention of embolic events in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). However, little is known about the impact of non-cardiac comorbidities on the efficacy and safety profile of these drugs.
METHODS AND RESULTS
In a post hoc analysis of the ENGAGE AF-TIMI 48 trial, we analysed 21 105 patients with AF followed for an average of 2.8 years and randomized to either a higher-dose edoxaban regimen (HDER), a lower-dose edoxaban regimen, or warfarin. We used the updated Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI) to stratify the patients according to the burden of concomitant disease (CCI = 0, 1, 2, 3, and ≥4). The treatment groups were then compared for safety, efficacy, and net clinical outcomes across CCI categories. There were 32.0%, 7.3%, 42.1%, 12.7%, and 6.0% of patients with CCI scores of 0, 1, 2, 3, and ≥4, respectively. A CCI score ≥4 was associated with significantly higher rates of thromboembolic events, bleeding, and death compared to CCI = 0 (P < 0.05 for each). The annualized rates of the primary net clinical outcome (stroke/systemic embolism, major bleeding, or death) for CCI = 0, 1, 2, 3, or ≥4 were 5.9%, 8.7%, 6.6%, 10.3%, and 13.6% (Ptrend < 0.001). There were no significant interactions between treatment with HDER vs. warfarin and efficacy, safety, and net outcomes across the CCI groups (P-interaction > 0.10 for each).

1300,32407835,An anti-IL-13 antibody reverses epithelial-mesenchymal transition biomarkers in eosinophilic esophagitis: phase 2 trial results.,"BACKGROUND
Fibrostenosis, the most serious eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) complication, is mediated by epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT). Transitioned cells contribute to pathogenesis by overproducing extracellular matrix.
OBJECTIVE
To determine whether RPC4046 (anti‒IL-13 monoclonal antibody) modulates EMT biomarkers in biopsies from adults with active EoE in a substudy of a double-blind, placebo-controlled phase 2 trial.
METHODS
Baseline and week-16 esophageal biopsies were taken from 69 patients randomized to weekly subcutaneous RPC4046 180 mg (n=19), 360 mg (n=26), or placebo (n=24). Duplex immunofluorescence slides stained for e-cadherin and vimentin were digitally analyzed by mapping each epithelial cell and recording fluorescence intensities. Endpoints included change from baseline to week 16 in percentage vimentin-positive epithelial cells (primary), total e-cadherin, and vimentin:e-cadherin ratio per cell (average of 47,000 cells/biopsy analyzed).
RESULTS
Mean percentage vimentin-positive cells decreased 0.94%, 2.75%, and 4.24% in the placebo, low-dose, and high-dose groups (P = 0.032, high-dose vs placebo). Mean e-cadherin expression per cell increased 5.6-fold in both dose groups versus placebo (high-dose P = 0.047). Increases in e-cadherin per cell from baseline to week 16 were correlated with improvements in histology, eosinophil counts, endoscopic findings, and symptoms.
CONCLUSION
RPC4046 significantly reduced EMT markers in adults with active EoE, with greater effects at 360 mg. Together with results for eosinophil density and clinical endpoints from the main trial, these data support the hypothesis that pharmacologic IL-13 inhibition ameliorates both inflammatory and remodeling pathways, and could potentially reduce the risk of fibrostenotic complications.",2020,"Increases in e-cadherin per cell from baseline to week 16 were correlated with improvements in histology, eosinophil counts, endoscopic findings, and symptoms.

1301,30695166,Effects of an Online Mindfulness Intervention Focusing on Attention Monitoring and Acceptance in Pregnant Women: A Randomized Controlled Trial.,"INTRODUCTION
Attention monitoring and acceptance underlie the effects of mindfulness meditation. This study tested the feasibility and acceptability of an online mindfulness intervention for pregnant women as an approach to reduce depressive and anxious symptoms.
METHOD
We developed an 8-week mindfulness intervention program that trained participants to monitor their internal and external experiences in an accepting way. The mindfulness course was based on the Wechat platform. This study was conducted in a women's hospital in China. A total of 123 women with scores on the Generalized Anxiety Disorder Scale and Patient Health Questionnaire suggesting mild or moderate symptoms of depression and anxiety were recruited from the outpatient department between April and June 2018. The participants were randomized to receive the mindfulness intervention or routine prenatal care. The Generalized Anxiety Disorder Scale, the Patient Health Questionnaire, and the Five Facets of Mindfulness Questionnaire were used to evaluate the levels of anxiety, depression, and mindfulness, respectively, before and after the intervention.
RESULTS
Of the 123 women enrolled in this study, 10 in the intervention group and 11 in the control group did not complete the intervention. The retention rate and feedback suggested that the mindfulness intervention was feasible and acceptable among pregnant women. Participants in the intervention group showed greater declines in depressive and anxious symptoms compared with those in the control group, as well a significant improvement in mindfulness skills (eg, attention monitoring and acceptance).
DISCUSSION
These results suggest that an online mindfulness intervention may be a promising technique to help women use mindfulness skills to reduce depressive and anxious symptoms. The mindfulness intervention could constitute part of the psychological care provided to pregnant women.",2019,"Participants in the intervention group showed greater declines in depressive and anxious symptoms compared with those in the control group, as well a significant improvement in mindfulness skills (eg, attention monitoring and acceptance).

1302,31633603,The role of goal-directed therapy in the prevention of acute kidney injury after major gastrointestinal surgery: Substudy of the OPTIMISE trial.,"BACKGROUND
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is an important adverse outcome after major surgery. Peri-operative goal-directed haemodynamic therapy (GDT) may improve outcomes by reducing complications such as AKI.
OBJECTIVE
To determine if GDT was associated with a reduced incidence of postoperative AKI according to specific renal biomarkers.
DESIGN
Prospective substudy of the OPTIMISE trial, a multicentre randomised controlled trial comparing peri-operative GDT to usual patient care.
SETTING
Four UK National Health Service hospitals.
PATIENTS
A total of 287 high-risk patients aged at least 50 years undergoing major gastrointestinal surgery.
OUTCOME MEASURES
The primary outcome measure was AKI defined as urinary neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipase (NGAL) at least 150 ng ml 24 and 72 h after surgery. Secondary outcomes were between-group differences in NGAL measurements and NGAL : creatinine ratios 24 and 72 h after surgery and AKI stage 2 or greater according to Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) criteria within 30 days of surgery.
RESULTS
In total, 20 of 287 patients (7%) experienced postoperative AKI of KDIGO grade 2 or 3 within 30 days. The proportion of patients with urinary NGAL at least 150 ng ml 24 or 72 h after surgery was similar in the two groups [GDT 31/144 (21.5%) patients vs. usual patient care 28/143 (19.6%) patients; P = 0.88]. Absolute values of urinary NGAL were also similar at 24 h (GDT 53.5 vs. usual patient care 44.1 ng ml; P = 0.38) and 72 h (GDT 45.1 vs. usual patient care 41.1 ng ml; P = 0.50) as were urinary NGAL : creatinine ratios at 24 h (GDT 45 vs. usual patient care 43 ng mg; P = 0.63) and 72 h (GDT 66 vs. usual patient care 63 ng mg; P = 0.62). The incidence of KDIGO-defined AKI was also similar between the groups [GDT 9/144 (6%) patients vs. usual patient care 11/143 (8%) patients; P = 0.80].
CONCLUSION
In this trial, GDT did not reduce the incidence of AKI amongst high-risk patients undergoing major gastrointestinal surgery. This may reflect improving standards in usual patient care.

1303,31644512,Laryngeal Mask Airway Supreme vs. the Spritztube tracheal cannula in anaesthetised adult patients: A randomised controlled trial.,"BACKGROUND
The Spritztube is a new supraglottic airway device combining the ability to allow extraglottic ventilation of the lungs with the opportunity to perform fibreoptic-assisted intubation.
OBJECTIVES
To compare the Spritztube tracheal cannula with the Laryngeal Mask Airway Supreme (LMA-S) in anaesthetised adult patients.
DESIGN
A single-centre, randomised controlled study.
SETTING
Tertiary hospital.
PATIENTS
Mechanically ventilated patients undergoing elective surgery in the supine position under general anaesthesia were included. Main exclusion criteria were a history of, or predicted, difficult airway management according to SIAARTI guidelines and absence of written informed consent.
INTERVENTIONS
Patients received the LMA-S or Spritztube tracheal cannula to facilitate ventilation of the lungs.
MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES
Successful placement (primary outcome), time required for insertion, number of attempts, subjective assessment of ease of insertion, safety and incidence of complications were recorded.
RESULTS
One hundred and sixty seven patients were allocated to the LMA-S or Spritztube group, respectively, a total of 334 patients. In the LMA-S group, the device insertion failed in nine patients, compared with none in the Spritztube group (P = 0.002). Spritztube insertion was easy in 100% of cases compared with 94.6% of the cases in the LMA-S group (P = 0.03). The number of attempts was significantly higher with the LMA-S compared with the Spritztube (P = 0.0007), whereas the insertion times were comparable (P = 0.06). Except for the incidence of blood-staining, which was higher in the LMA-S group (P = 0.01), the number of complications was comparable in the two groups.
CONCLUSION

1304,32407919,Application of a Microsurgical Space Restrictor in Microsurgical Simulation Training.,"OBJECTIVE
To investigate the effect of the application of a microsurgical space restrictor in microsurgical simulation training.
METHODS
A microsurgical space restrictor that can restrict the operation space was designed and produced. Forty neurosurgery residents with standardized training were selected as the study subjects and were randomly divided into the experimental group (group A) and the control group (group B). Group A was trained using the space restrictor, and group B was trained using the traditional method. The skills and overall performance of the two groups of trainees were assessed by the Stanford Microsurgery and Resident Training (SMaRT) scale. The assessment was divided into two stages: the unobstructed microsurgery test and the test with the microsurgical operation space restrictor.
RESULTS
In group A, the score for the first stage (A1) was 3.9 ± 0.6, the score for the second stage (A2) was 3.4 ± 0.6, and the score for A1 was better than that for A2 (P = 0.000); in group B, the score for the first stage (B1) was 3.57 ± 0.6, the score for the second stage (B2) was 3.0 ± 0.6, and the score for B1 was better than that for B2 (P = 0.000). Overall, the score for A1 was better than that for B1 (P = 0.046), and the score for A2 was better than that for B2 (P = 0.009).

1305,32408011,"Cold versus hot adenoidectomy: A prospective, randomized controlled trial.","OBJECTIVE
Adenoidectomy can be performed using the cold method (mainly adenoid curettes) or the hot method (suction diathermy). Both techniques have similar intra and postoperative outcomes. However, the long-term clinical outcome of improving sleep disorder symptoms has not been well established. The objective of this study was to compare outcomes of hot method and cold method adenoidectomy one year following the surgery.
STUDY DESIGN
A prospective, randomized, single-blinded study of children under age 16 years who underwent adenoidectomy during the years 2014-2017. Patients were randomized to hot or cold adenoidectomy techniques.
SETTING
A tertiary health care referral center.
SUBJECTS AND METHODS
The final analysis included 58 children, mean age 5.9 years (range 1.2-15). The primary outcome was change in the Pediatric Sleep Questionnaire (PSQ) scores one month and one year after surgery. The secondary outcome was complication rate.
RESULTS
Clinical and demographic parameters were similar between the patients in the hot method group (n = 30) and the cold method group (n = 28). Adenoid size and estimated bleeding were similar between the groups. At one month after surgery, PSQ score was improved by a mean + 0.31 in the hot method group compared to +0.32 in the cold method group (p = 0.54). Improvement in PSQ scores was greater following hot than cold adenoidectomy at one year after surgery (+0.31 points vs. +0.22 points, p = 0.009).

1306,32408022,Supporting Syrian families displaced by armed conflict: A pilot randomized controlled trial of the Caregiver Support Intervention.,"BACKGROUND
The impact of armed conflict and displacement on children's mental health is strongly mediated by compromised parenting stemming from persistently high caregiver stress. Parenting interventions for refugees emphasize the acquisition of parenting knowledge and skills, while overlooking the deleterious effects of chronic stress on parenting. War Child Holland's Caregiver Support Intervention (CSI) aims to strengthen parenting by lowering stress and improving psychosocial wellbeing among refugee parents, while also increasing knowledge and skill related to positive parenting. The CSI is a nine-session group intervention delivered by non-specialist providers.
OBJECTIVE
We describe the findings of a two-arm pilot randomized controlled trial of the CSI with Syrian refugees in Lebanon. The primary aim was to test the feasibility of our study methodology prior to conducting a definitive RCT.
METHODS
We recruited 78 families (151 parents), who were randomized to the CSI or a waitlist control group. Data were collected at baseline and post-intervention.
RESULTS
Randomization was successful, retention was high (99 %), as was intervention completion (95 % among women, 86 % among men). Implementation fidelity was excellent. Blinding was largely, though not completely effective. The CSI group showed significantly increased parental warmth and responsiveness, decreased harsh parenting, lowered stress and distress, improved psychosocial wellbeing, and improved stress management. CSI parents reported increased child psychosocial wellbeing. Control families showed no significant change on any variable.
CONCLUSIONS
Findings demonstrate the feasibility of our methodology for a definitive RCT, and suggest that the CSI shows promise as a scalable approach to strengthening parenting in refugee communities.

Thrombin-based formulations have been used for topical hemostasis in surgery for decades. However, the number of randomized clinical trials comparing bovine vs human thrombin is limited.
STUDY DESIGN
A randomized, double-blind, non-inferiority phase II study evaluated the hemostatic efficacy and safety of plasma-derived topical thrombin (human) Grifols (TTH-Grifols; Instituto Grifols SA) vs bovine THROMBIN JMI (BT-JMI; GenTrac Inc) (2:1 ratio) in vascular, hepatic, soft tissue, and spinal operations. The primary efficacy end point was the percentage of patients achieving hemostasis at target bleeding sites with mild to moderate bleeding (response) within 5 minutes (T 5 ) of treatment application. Non-inferiority was met if the lower limit of the 95% CI of the response ratio of TTH-Grifols relative to BT-JMI by T 5 exceeded 0.8. Secondary efficacy variables were the cumulative response by 3 and 4 minutes (T 3 and T 4 ), and the number of treatment failures. Safety parameters were assessed.
RESULTS
Randomized patients in TTH-Grifols and BT-JMI groups were n = 137 and n = 68, respectively. In modified intention-to-treat population, rates of hemostasis by T 5 were 78.3% (94 of 120) in TTH-Grifols and 80.3% (49 of 61) in BT-JMI (response ratio: 0.973; 95% CI 0.833 to 1.135). Rates of hemostasis in vascular, hepatic, soft tissue, and spinal operations ranged from 75.0% to 82.5% for TTH-Grifols and from 54.5% to 91.7% for BT-JMI. No significant differences in adverse events were observed between treatment groups. Antibodies to bovine factor V antigen were detected in 2 patients exposed to BT-JMI and in none exposed to TTH-Grifols.

1308,32408038,Does eccentric-concentric resistance training improve early functional outcomes compared to concentric resistance training after total knee arthroplasty?,"BACKGROUND
Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is the preferred surgical treatment of end stage osteoarthritis of the knee. However, up to 20% of patients are dissatisfied after TKA. Moreover, kinesiophobia is negatively correlated with functional outcomes.
RESEARCH QUESTION
The aim of this study was to compare the effects of combined concentric-eccentric versus concentric program on muscular strength assessment and quality of life, after total knee arthroplasty in elderly people.
METHOD
A prospective study including 20 subjects (72.1 ± 6.3 years), following a rehabilitation program after TKA was performed. Subjects were randomized in combined eccentricconcentric (ECC-CON, n = 10) versus concentric (CN, n = 10) early rehabilitation protocols. There were no significant differences between groups with respect to demographic data. Data were collected before and after protocol: performance-based physical function (timed up and go test, 10-meter walk test, isokinetic assessment), Selfreported physical function and quality of life (Lequesne-ISK, WOMAC, OAKHQOL) and kinesiophobia assessment (TSK-CF). The Gaussian distribution for the whole population of this study was tested by a Kolmogorov-Smirnov test. Statistical analysis was performed using non-parametric Mann-Whitney U or Fisher's exact probability test, as appropriate.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION
Performance-based physical function tests showed a significant improvement after early rehabilitation in the ECC-CON group for timed up and go (p = 0.0002) and 10-meter walk test (p = 0.001). Operated hamstring muscle peak torque was significantly improved in the ECC-CON group (p = 0.03). Self-reported physical function and quality of life tests were significantly better in the ECC-CON group for ISK (p = 0.03) and WOMAC (p = 0.04). Self-reported kinesiophobia significantly decreased after rehabilitation in both groups (p = 0.01) whilst there were no differences between groups.

1309,30509675,"Cefiderocol versus imipenem-cilastatin for the treatment of complicated urinary tract infections caused by Gram-negative uropathogens: a phase 2, randomised, double-blind, non-inferiority trial.","BACKGROUND
Carbapenem-resistant Gram-negative bacteria represent the highest priority for addressing global antibiotic resistance. Cefiderocol (S-649266), a new siderophore cephalosporin, has broad activity against Enterobacteriaceae and non-fermenting bacteria, such as Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Acinetobacter baumannii, including carbapenem-resistant strains. We assessed the efficacy and safety of cefiderocol versus imipenem-cilastatin for the treatment of complicated urinary tract infection in patients at risk of multidrug-resistant Gram-negative infections.
METHODS
We did a phase 2, multicentre, double-blind, parallel-group non-inferiority trial at 67 hospitals in 15 countries. Adults (≥18 years) admitted to hospital with a clinical diagnosis of complicated urinary tract infection with or without pyelonephritis or those with acute uncomplicated pyelonephritis were randomly assigned (2:1) by an interactive web or voice response system to receive 1 h intravenous infusions of cefiderocol (2 g) or imipenem-cilastatin (1 g each) three times daily, every 8 h for 7-14 days. Patients were excluded if they had a baseline urine culture with more than two uropathogens, a fungal urinary tract infection, or pathogens known to be carbapenem resistant. The primary endpoint was the composite of clinical and microbiological outcomes at test of cure (ie, 7 days after treatment cessation), which was used to establish non-inferiority (15% and 20% margins) of cefiderocol versus imipenem-cilastatin. The primary efficacy analysis was done on a modified intention-to-treat population, which included all randomly assigned individuals who received at least one dose of study drug and had a qualifying Gram-negative uropathogen (≥1 × 10 5 colony-forming units [CFU]/mL). Safety was assessed in all randomly assigned individuals who received at least one dose of study drug, according to the treatment they received. This study is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, number NCT02321800.
FINDINGS
Between Feb 5, 2015, and Aug 16, 2016, 452 patients were randomly assigned to cefiderocol (n=303) or imipenem-cilastatin (n=149), of whom 448 patients (n=300 in the cefiderocol group; n=148 in the imipenem-cilastatin group) received treatment. 371 patients (n=252 patients in the cefiderocol group; n=119 patients in the imipenem-cilastatin group) had qualifying Gram-negative uropathogen (≥1 × 10 5 CFU/mL) and were included in the primary efficacy analysis. At test of cure, the primary efficacy endpoint was achieved by 183 (73%) of 252 patients in the cefiderocol group and 65 (55%) of 119 patients in the imipenem-cilastatin group, with an adjusted treatment difference of 18·58% (95% CI 8·23-28·92; p=0·0004), establishing the non-inferiority of cefiderocol. Cefiderocol was well tolerated. Adverse events occurred in 122 (41%) of 300 patients in the cefiderocol group and 76 (51%) of 148 patients in the imipenem-cilastatin group, with gastrointestinal disorders (ie, diarrhoea, constipation, nausea, vomiting, and abdominal pain) the most common adverse events for both treatment groups (35 [12%] patients in the cefiderocol group and 27 [18%] patients in the imipenem-cilastatin group).
INTERPRETATION
Intravenous infusion of cefiderocol (2 g) three times daily was non-inferior compared with imipenem-cilastatin (1 g each) for the treatment of complicated urinary tract infection in people with multidrug-resistant Gram-negative infections. The results of this study will provide the basis for submission of a New Drug Application to the US Food and Drug Administration. Clinical trials of hospital-acquired pneumonia and carbapenem-resistant infections are ongoing.

1311,31648099,"Patritumab or placebo, with cetuximab plus platinum therapy in recurrent or metastatic squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck: A randomised phase II study.","BACKGROUND
The fully human monoclonal antibody patritumab blocks HER3 activation, a resistance mechanism to cetuximab, induced by heregulin (HRG). A phase Ib study in recurrent and/or metastatic (R/M) squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (SCCHN) demonstrated tolerability and tumour response of patritumab + cetuximab + platinum.
METHODS
This was a randomised, double-blind, phase II study of patritumab + cetuximab with platinum-based therapy for first-line treatment of R/M SCCHN (Clinicaltrials.gov identifier: NCT02633800). Patients aged ≥18 years received patritumab or placebo, both combined with cetuximab + cisplatin or carboplatin. Co-primary end-points were progression-free survival (PFS) in the intent-to-treat (ITT) and the high-expression HRG (HRG high) populations.
RESULTS
Eighty-seven patients (n = 43 in the patritumab group; n = 44 in placebo group) enrolled. A median (range) of 6.5 (1-24) patritumab cycles were completed. Median PFS was similar between the patritumab group and placebo group in the ITT population (5.6 versus 5.5 months; hazard ratio [HR] 0.99 [95% confidence interval [CI], 0.6-1.7]; P = 0.96) and HRG-high subgroup (n = 51; 5.6 versus 5.6 months; HR 0.93 [95% CI, 0.5-1.8]; P = 0.82). Median overall survival in the ITT population was also similar (10.0 versus 12.7 months; HR 1.3 [95% CI, 0.69-2.29]; P = 0.46). All patients experienced ≥1 treatment-emergent adverse event (TEAE). Grade ≥III TEAEs were more frequent in the patritumab than the placebo group (84.1% versus 60.5%).

1312,32408117,"Effects of saffron supplementation on glycemia and inflammation in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus: A randomized double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial study.","BACKGROUND
New evidence indicates that overproduction of pro-inflammatory cytokines is responsible for the development of diabetes difficulties. Some herbals such as saffron, may control inflammation and improve the hyperglycemic states in diabetic patients. Therefore, this investigation aimed to assess the effects of saffron supplementation on fasting glucose and inflammatory markers levels in patients with type2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).
METHODS
In this randomized double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial, 60 T2DM patients were randomly assigned into two groups as saffron and placebo (n = 30) receiving 100 mg/day saffron powder or starch capsules (1 capsule) for a duration of 8 weeks. Fasting blood sample was collected at baseline and at the end of the intervention. Fasting blood glucose (FBG) was immediately analyzed by the auto-analyzer. The serum level of Interleukin -6 (IL-6), Tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), and Interleukin-10 (IL-10) were measured using ELISA assay by laboratory kits. Also, Real-time quantitative reverse transcription (RT-PCR) assay measured the expression level of TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-10 at the mRNA level.
RESULTS
Saffron supplementation significantly decreased the FBG levels within 8 weeks compared to placebo (130.93 ± 21.21 vs 135.13 ± 23.03 mg/dl, P = 0.012). Moreover, the serum level of TNF-α notably reduced in the saffron group compared to the placebo group (114.40 ± 24.28 vs 140.90 ± 25.49 pg/ml, P < 0.001). Also, saffron supplementation significantly down-regulated the expressions of TNF-α (P = 0.035) and IL-6 mRNA levels (P = 0.014).
CONCLUSION
In our study, it was indicated that saffron modulates glucose levels as well as inflammation status in T2DM patients through decreasing the expressions levels of some inflammatory mediators. Also, further investigations are necessary to confirm the positive effects of saffron as a complementary therapy for T2DM patients.",2020,"Also, saffron supplementation significantly down-regulated the expressions of TNF-α (P = 0.035) and IL-6 mRNA levels (P = 0.014).

1313,32408065,Spending the night next to a router - Results from the first human experimental study investigating the impact of Wi-Fi exposure on sleep.,"BACKGROUND
The use of wireless telecommunication systems such as wireless fidelity (Wi-Fi)-enabled devices has steadily increased in recent years. There are persistent concerns that radiofrequency electromagnetic field (RF-EMF) exposure might affect health. Possible effects of RF-EMF exposure on human sleep were examined with regard to mobile phones and base stations, but not with regard to Wi-Fi exposure.
OBJECTIVES
The present double-blind, sham-controlled, randomized, fully counterbalanced cross-over study addressed for the first time the question whether a whole night Wi-Fi exposure has an effect on sleep.
METHODS
Thirty-four healthy young male subjects (mean ± SD: 24.1 ± 2.9 years) spent five nights in the sleep laboratory. A screening and adaptation night was followed by two experimental nights. Each of the experimental nights was preceded by a baseline night. Sleep was evaluated at the subjective level by a questionnaire and at the objective level (macro- and microstructure) by polysomnography. Either 2.45 GHz Wi-Fi (max psSAR10g of 6.4 mW/kg) or sham signals were delivered by a newly developed head exposure facility.
RESULTS
Results showed no statistically significant acute effects of a whole-night Wi-Fi exposure on subjective sleep parameters as well as on parameters characterizing the macrostructure of sleep. Analyses of the microstructure of sleep revealed a reduction in global EEG power in the alpha frequency band (8.00-11.75 Hz) during NREM sleep under acute Wi-Fi exposure compared to sham.
DISCUSSION
The results of the present human experimental study are well in line with several other neurophysiological studies showing that acute RF-EMF exposure has no effect on the macrostructure of sleep. The slight physiological changes in EEG power observed under Wi-Fi exposure are neither reflected in the subjective assessment of sleep nor at the level of objective measurements. The present results are not indicative of a sleep disturbing effect of Wi-Fi exposure.",2020,"RESULTS

1314,30489352,The Effect of Acute Glutamine Supplementation on Markers of Inflammation and Fatigue During Consecutive Days of Simulated Wildland Firefighting.,"OBJECTIVE
To examine the effect of oral glutamine supplementation on inflammation and fatigue during and after simulated wildland firefighting (WLFF) tasks in hot conditions over 2 consecutive days.
METHODS
Eleven men and women ingested a glutamine supplement or a placebo before and after simulated wildland firefighting in an environmental chamber (38 °C, 35% relative humidity). Subjective fatigue, markers of inflammation, and cellular stress were measured pre, post and 4 hours post-exercise on both days.
RESULTS
Gastrointestinal damage, subjective fatigue, and ratings of perceived exertion were lower after glutamine supplementation compared with placebo. Heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) and nuclear factor kappa-inhibitor alpha (IκBα) levels were higher on both days of the glutamine trial compared with placebo.

1315,30401602,The Effect of Preoperative Oral Carbohydrate Administration on Insulin Resistance and Comfort Level in Patients Undergoing Surgery.,"PURPOSE
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of preoperative oral carbohydrate solution (OCS) administration on postoperative insulin resistance and patient comfort in elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
DESIGN
Randomized controlled clinical study.
METHODS
The experimental group received OCS. The control group did not eat or drink before surgery. Glucose and insulin level were measured at baseline, 2 hours before surgery, and at the first and third hour after surgery. Insulin resistance was assessed by the homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR). The visual analogue scale (VAS) and general comfort scale (GCS) were used to assess postoperative comfort level.
FINDINGS
A significant increase in the glucose level was observed in both groups (P < 0.05). A change in glucose level was significantly higher in the control group (P = .014). HOMA-IR values did not change significantly in the OCS group (P = .160). In the OCS group VAS scores were significantly lower (P < .0001). The OCS group had significantly higher relief (P = .014), ease (P = .001), and transcendence (P < .0001) scores.
CONCLUSIONS
OCS decreases insulin resistance and increases comfort.",2019,"The OCS group had significantly higher relief (P = .014), ease (P = .001), and transcendence (P < .0001) scores.

We performed a multicenter randomized crossover trial comparing EUS-FNB with a 20G Procore needle vs. a 22G Acquire needle. The aims were to compare the quantity of targeted tissue (pancreas) and diagnostic accuracy for the two needles. METHODS : 60 patients admitted for EUS-FNB in three endoscopy units were included. One pass was performed consecutively with each needle, in a randomized order. Histologic material was studied in a blinded manner with respect to the needle. The primary end point was mean cumulative length of tissue core biopsies per needle pass. RESULTS : Final diagnosis was adenocarcinoma (n = 46; 77 %), neuroendocrine neoplasm (n = 11; 18 %), autoimmune pancreatitis (n = 2), and mass-forming chronic pancreatitis (n = 1). The mean cumulative length of tissue core biopsies per needle pass was significantly higher with the 22G Acquire needle at 11.4 mm (95 % confidence interval [CI] 9.0 - 13.8] vs. 5.4 mm (95 %CI 3.8 - 7.0) for the 20G Procore needle ( P < 0.001), as was the mean surface area (3.5 mm 2 [95 %CI 2.7 - 4.3] vs. 1.8 mm 2 [95 %CI 1.2 - 2.3]; P < 0.001).

Sepsis is common and frequently fatal condition in critically ill patients and is a major cause of acute kidney injury (AKI). In this retrospective study, we sought to develop a comprehensive risk score model of sepsis associated-AKI (SA-AKI).
METHODS
A total of 2617 patients were randomly assigned to a development (1554 patients) and a validation group (777 patients). The risk score model for SA-AKI was developed with multivariate regression analysis in development group and the model was further evaluated on validation group.
RESULTS
We identified 16 independent predictors of SA-AKI in development group (age ≥ 60 years, hypertension/coronary heart disease, diabetes, chronic kidney disease, heart failure, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, acute severe pancreatitis, hypotension, hypoproteinemia, lactic acidosis, the length of stay in intensive care unit(ICU), 60 g/L .05).

1323,31678062,"Gastric bypass versus sleeve gastrectomy in patients with type 2 diabetes (Oseberg): a single-centre, triple-blind, randomised controlled trial.","BACKGROUND
For patients with obesity and type 2 diabetes, weight loss improves insulin sensitivity and β-cell function, and can induce remission of diabetes. The comparative efficacy of various bariatric procedures for the remission of type 2 diabetes has not been fully elucidated. We aimed to compare the effects of the two most common bariatric procedures, gastric bypass and sleeve gastrectomy, on remission of diabetes and β-cell function.
METHODS
We conducted a single-centre, triple-blind, randomised trial at Vestfold Hospital Trust (Tønsberg, Norway), in which patients (aged ≥18 years) with type 2 diabetes and obesity were randomly assigned (1:1) to receive gastric bypass or sleeve gastrectomy (the Oseberg study). Randomisation was performed with a computerised random number generator and a block size of 10. Treatment allocation was masked from participants, study personnel, and outcome assessors and was concealed with sealed opaque envelopes. Surgeons used identical skin incisions during both surgeries and were not involved in patient follow-up. The primary clinical outcome was the proportion of participants with complete remission of type 2 diabetes (HbA 1c of ≤6·0% [42 mmol/mol] without the use of glucose-lowering medication) at 1 year after surgery. The primary physiological outcome was disposition index (a measure of β-cell function) at 1 year after surgery, as assessed by an intravenous glucose tolerance test. Primary outcomes were analysed in the intention-to-treat and per-protocol populations. This trial is ongoing and closed to recruitment, and is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT01778738.
FINDINGS
Between Oct 15, 2012, and Sept 1, 2017, 1305 patients who were preparing for bariatric surgery were screened, of whom 319 consecutive patients with type 2 diabetes were assessed for eligibility. 109 patients were enrolled and randomly assigned to gastric bypass (n=54) or sleeve gastrectomy (n=55). 107 (98%) of 109 patients completed 1-year follow-up, with one patient in each group withdrawing after surgery (per-protocol population). In the intention-to-treat population, diabetes remission rates were higher in the gastric bypass group than in the sleeve gastrectomy group (risk difference 27% [95% CI 10 to 44]; relative risk [RR] 1·57 [1·14 to 2·16], p=0·0054); results were similar in the per-protocol population (risk difference 27% [95% CI 10 to 45]; RR 1·57 [1·14 to 2·15], p=0·0036). In the intention-to-treat population, disposition index increased in both groups (between-group difference 55 [-111 to 220], p=0·52); results were similar in the per-protocol population (between-group difference 21 [-214 to 256], p=0.86). In the gastric bypass group, ten of 54 participants had early complications and 17 of 53 had late side-effects. In the sleeve gastrectomy group, eight of 55 participants had early complications and 22 of 54 had late side-effects. No deaths occurred in either group.
INTERPRETATION
Gastric bypass was found to be superior to sleeve gastrectomy for remission of type 2 diabetes at 1 year after surgery, and the two procedures had a similar beneficial effect on β-cell function. The use of gastric bypass as the preferred bariatric procedure for patients with obesity and type 2 diabetes could improve diabetes care and reduce related societal costs.

1324,30648520,The Effect of Methylphenidate on Reed Scaling in Benzodiazepine Poisoning: A Prospective Trial.,"BACKGROUND
Benzodiazepine is one of the most important causes of substance abuse and intoxication throughout the world and Iran.
OBJECTIVE
The aim of our study is to determine the role of stimulants in reversing CNS level in acute Benzodiazepine poisoning patients who were hospitalized at referral poison center.
METHOD
This was a randomized double-blind placebo-controlled trial study on 32 cases with pure acute Benzodiazepine poisoning from March 2016 to February 2017. Diagnosis of pure acute poisoning was based on history, and laboratory confirmation. We gathered the demographics, clinical data, laboratory data, hospitalization and outcome. Participants were randomized into two groups: Methylphenidate Group (MPH) and Placebo Group (PBO).
RESULTS
The randomized sample consisted of 32 participants who were predominately female (83%). The majority of the PBO group and the MPH group reported improvement in their consciousness with a significant difference between the two groups (p = .005). Paired sample t-test analyses on Reed Scale data revealed an increase in the probability of improvement during the trial for the MPH group compared to the PBO group. Furthermore, the HCo3 (bicarbonate) level has a significant p-value with respect to age groups (p = .02). None of our cases required either the ICU facility or intubation.
CONCLUSION
Our study provided the MPH superiority over PBO in reversing CNS symptoms in loss of consciousness in acute BZD poisoned patients. Thus, this trial provides concrete evidence that improvement in consciousness levels (Reed Scale rated) among those patients receiving MPH was associated with a methylphenidate use.",2020,The majority of the PBO group and the MPH group reported improvement in their consciousness with a significant difference between the two groups (p = .005).,"['32 cases with pure acute Benzodiazepine poisoning from March 2016 to February 2017', '32 participants who were predominately female (83', 'acute Benzodiazepine poisoning patients who were hospitalized a referral poison center', 'acute BZD poisoned patients']","['Benzodiazepine', 'Methylphenidate Group (MPH) and Placebo Group (PBO', 'methylphenidate', 'placebo']","['HCo3 (bicarbonate) level', 'consciousness levels']","[{'cui': 'C0868928', 'cui_str': 'Case - situation (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0412862', 'cui_str': 'Benzodiazepine poisoning'}, {'cui': 'C0332251', 'cui_str': 'Predominate (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0086287', 'cui_str': 'Females'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C0034927', 'cui_str': 'Referral'}, {'cui': 'C0032344', 'cui_str': 'poisoning'}, {'cui': 'C0205099', 'cui_str': 'Central (qualifier value)'}]","[{'cui': 'C0005064', 'cui_str': 'Benzodiazepine Compounds'}, {'cui': 'C0025810', 'cui_str': 'Methylphenidate'}, {'cui': 'C0439745', 'cui_str': 'Grouped (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C1696465', 'cui_str': 'placebo'}]","[{'cui': 'C0456079', 'cui_str': 'Level (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0234421', 'cui_str': 'Consciousness'}]",32.0,0.146873,The majority of the PBO group and the MPH group reported improvement in their consciousness with a significant difference between the two groups (p = .005).,"[{'ForeName': 'Masoud', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Latifi-Pour', 'Affiliation': 'Toxicological Research Center and Excellence Center of Clinical Toxicology, Department of Clinical Toxicology, Loghman Hakim Hospital Poison Center, Shahid Beheshti University of Medical Sciences, Kamali Avenue, South Karegar Street, Tehran, Iran.'}, {'ForeName': 'Hossein', 'Initials': 'H', 'LastName': 'Hassanian-Moghaddam', 'Affiliation': 'Toxicological Research Center and Excellence Center of Clinical Toxicology, Department of Clinical Toxicology, Loghman Hakim Hospital Poison Center, Shahid Beheshti University of Medical Sciences, Kamali Avenue, South Karegar Street, Tehran, Iran.'}, {'ForeName': 'Helya-Sadat', 'Initials': 'HS', 'LastName': 'Mortazavi', 'Affiliation': 'Toxicological Research Center and Excellence Center of Clinical Toxicology, Department of Clinical Toxicology, Loghman Hakim Hospital Poison Center, Shahid Beheshti University of Medical Sciences, Kamali Avenue, South Karegar Street, Tehran, Iran.'}, {'ForeName': 'Shahin', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Shadnia', 'Affiliation': 'Toxicological Research Center and Excellence Center of Clinical Toxicology, Department of Clinical Toxicology, Loghman Hakim Hospital Poison Center, Shahid Beheshti University of Medical Sciences, Kamali Avenue, South Karegar Street, Tehran, Iran.'}, {'ForeName': 'Nasim', 'Initials': 'N', 'LastName': 'Zamani', 'Affiliation': 'Toxicological Research Center and Excellence Center of Clinical Toxicology, Department of Clinical Toxicology, Loghman Hakim Hospital Poison Center, Shahid Beheshti University of Medical Sciences, Kamali Avenue, South Karegar Street, Tehran, Iran.'}, {'ForeName': 'Mitra', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Rahimi', 'Affiliation': 'Toxicological Research Center and Excellence Center of Clinical Toxicology, Department of Clinical Toxicology, Loghman Hakim Hospital Poison Center, Shahid Beheshti University of Medical Sciences, Kamali Avenue, South Karegar Street, Tehran, Iran.'}]",Current clinical pharmacology,['10.2174/1574884714666190112153157']
1325,30635252,"Comparison of two schedules of two-dose priming with the ten-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine in Nepalese children: an open-label, randomised non-inferiority controlled trial.","BACKGROUND
Nepalese infants receive ten-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV10) with a 1 month interval between priming doses for programmatic reasons. We aimed to investigate whether immune responses to PCV10 serotypes were non-inferior if the second priming dose of PCV10 was delivered at a 1 month interval as opposed to a 2 month interval.
METHODS
We did an open-label, randomised, parallel group trial in healthy Nepalese infants aged 40-60 days at Patan Hospital, Kathmandu, Nepal. Children were eligible for inclusion if they were healthy, were born at more than or equal to 37 weeks' gestation, were residing in Kathmandu, and had not had any previous vaccinations other than BCG, and oral polio vaccine. Participants were randomly assigned (1:1) by means of a computer-generated list with randomly varying permuted block sizes accessed through a validated web-based interface, to receive PCV10 either at 6 weeks and 10 weeks of age (6 + 10 group) or at 6 weeks and 14 weeks of age (6 + 14 group), with both groups receiving a booster at 9 months of age. Laboratory staff, masked to study intervention, analysed serum samples for antibodies against PCV10 serotypes by ELISA. The primary outcome was to determine whether the 6 + 10 schedule was non-inferior to the 6 + 14 schedule at 9 months of age, on the basis of the proportion of infants with serotype-specific IgG greater than or equal to 0·35 μg/mL. Non-inferiority was established with a 10% margin, and the primary endpoint was measured in a modified intention-to-treat population, which included only participants who successfully had a blood sample collected. This trial is registered at ClinicalTrials.gov, number NCT02385513.
FINDINGS
Between Aug 21, 2015, and April 4, 2016, 304 Nepalese children were randomly assigned to either the 6 + 10 group (n=152) or the 6 + 14 group (n=152). At 9 months of age, the 6 + 10 schedule was non-inferior for serotype 5 (79 [55·2%] of 143 vs 78 [53·4%] of 146, difference 1·82% [95% CI -9·6 to 13·25], p=0·021), serotype 9V (66 [46·1%] of 143 vs 55 [37·6%] of 146, difference 8·48% [-2·84 to 19·8], p=0·001), serotype 14 (110 [77·4%] of 142 vs 110 [74·8%] of 147, difference 2·63% [-7·27 to 12·54], p=0·006), and serotype 19F (135 [95%] of 142 vs 146 [100%] of 146, difference -4·92% [-9·86 to 0], p=0·022). At the same timepoint, non-inferiority was not shown for serotype 1 (36 [25·1%] of 143 vs 42 [28·5%] of 147, difference -3·39% [95% CI -13·56 to 6·77], p=0·102), serotype 4 (70 [48·9%] of 143 vs 87 [59·1%] of 147, difference -10·23% [-21·64 to 1·18], p=0·516), serotype 6B (96 [67·1%] of 143 vs 114 [77·5%] of 147, difference -10·41% [-20·65 to -0·18], p=0·532), serotype 7F (99 [69·2%] of 143 vs 109 [74·1%] of 147, difference -4·91% [-15·26 to 5·42], p=0·168), serotype 18C (89 [62·2%] of 143 vs 114 [77·5%] of 147, difference -15·31% [-25·78 to -4·83], p=0·840), and serotype 23F (37 [25·8%] of 143 vs 41 [27·8%] of 147, difference -2·01% [-12·19 to 8·16], p=0·062). After the booster dose, at 10 months of age, there were no significant differences in immunogenicity (proportion of children with antibody greater than or equal to 0.35 μg/mL) for any of the ten serotypes, when comparing the two schedules. Serious adverse events occurred in 32 participants, 11 (7%) of 152 in the 6 + 10 group and 21 (14%) of 152 in the 6 + 14 group.
INTERPRETATION
The 6 week, 14 week, and 9 month schedule should be implemented where possible. However, post-booster responses, which are thought to drive herd immunity, were similar in the two schedules.

1326,30660594,Financial incentives for achieving and maintaining viral suppression among HIV-positive adults in Uganda: a randomised controlled trial.,"BACKGROUND
Viral suppression among HIV-positive individuals is essential for protecting health and preventing HIV transmission. Financial incentives have shown promise in modifying various health behaviours in low-income countries but few studies have assessed whether they can improve HIV treatment outcomes. We aimed to determine the impact of time-limited financial incentives on viral suppression among HIV-positive adults in rural Uganda.
METHODS
We did a randomised controlled trial in four rural Ugandan parishes. We recruited HIV-positive individuals (aged ≥18 years) from community health campaigns that included HIV testing services or at a local government health facility where HIV treatment is offered. Participants included those who were initiating antiretroviral therapy (ART) or already receiving ART. Eligibility to participate in the study did not depend on current ART or viral suppression status. Participants were randomly allocated (1:1) to the financial incentive intervention or the control group in computer-generated blocks (block size 10 participants) and pre-printed scratch cards were used to reveal study group assignment. We measured participants' viral load at baseline and at weeks 6, 12, 24, and 48. At each timepoint, we provided results and viral load counselling. Participants in the intervention group received financial incentives for viral suppression at weeks 6, 12, and 24, with incentive amounts increasing from US$4 to $12·5. The primary outcome was viral suppression (viral load <400 copies per mL) at 24 weeks in the intention-to-treat population. This trial is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, number NCT02890459.
FINDINGS
Between June 27, 2016, and May 25, 2018, we enrolled 400 adults in the study, of whom 203 were randomly assigned to the intervention group and 197 to the control group. Of these, 324 were enrolled from community health campaigns and 76 from the government clinic. Eight (2%) withdrew from the study and were not included in analyses. Over the 48-week follow-up period, 35 (9%) died or were lost-to-follow-up. Participants' median daily income was $0·79. At baseline, 300 participants (77%) were virally suppressed. In intention-to-treat analyses, 168 participants (84%) in the intervention group and 156 (82%) in the control group were virally suppressed at 24 weeks (odds ratio 1·14, 95% CI 0·68-1·93, p=0·62). Six participants (3%) in the control group and four (2%) in the intervention group had adverse events. Six of the adverse events were serious, including two deaths in the intervention group, three deaths in the control group, and one serious injury (tibia fracture) after an auto accident. No adverse events or deaths were related to study participation.
INTERPRETATION
Financial incentives had no effect on viral suppression among HIV-positive adults. High baseline viral suppression and provision of viral load results might have contributed to high viral suppression among participants. These findings highlight the need for interventions that promote achievement of viral suppression among unsuppressed individuals.

1327,30576085,Improvement of bone mineral density and markers of proximal renal tubular function in chronic hepatitis B patients switched from tenofovir disoproxil fumarate to tenofovir alafenamide.,"Tenofovir alafenamide (TAF) is a novel prodrug that reduces tenofovir plasma levels by 90% compared to tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF), resulting in decreased bone mineral density (BMD) loss and renal toxicity. We aimed to study changes in BMD and markers of renal function of chronic hepatitis B (CHB) patients previously treated with TDF who were switched to TAF in as early as 12 weeks. This was a prospective single-arm open-label study of 75 CHB patients treated with TDF 300 mg daily who were switched to TAF 25 mg daily and followed for 24 weeks. All patients had been treated with TDF for at least 12 months and had HBV DNA <21 IU/mL at the time of switch. BMD and markers of renal function were taken on the day of switch and repeated after 12 and 24 weeks of TAF treatment. Hip and spine bone mineral density significantly increased from baseline to week 12 (+12.9% and +2.4%, respectively, P < 0.01). There were significant decreases in urinary beta-2-microglobulin to creatinine and retinol-binding protein to creatinine ratios by week 12 (P < 0.01 for both). Mean estimated glomerular filtration rate (GFR) did not change. Tubular reabsorption of phosphate was decreased at week 24 (P < 0.05). In conclusion, CHB patients previously treated with TDF experienced significant improvement in bone density and some markers of renal tubular function and as early as 12 weeks after switching to TAF.

1328,32408390,Does tamsulosin or mirabegron improve ureteral stent-related symptoms? A prospective placebo-controlled study.,"OBJECTIVE
The main objective of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of tamsulosin or mirabegron on ureteral stent-related symptoms.
PATIENTS AND METHODS
This was a prospective, randomized, controlled, and single-blinded study. In total, 180 patients who had undergone ureterolithotripsy and ureteral stent insertion were included. Patients were randomly divided into three groups as follows: Group 1 was the control group taking placebo; group 2 was administered tamsulosin (0.4 mg) once a day; and group 3 received mirabegron (50 mg) once a day. The Turkish version of the ureteral stent symptom questionnaire was filled out after 4 weeks.
RESULTS
After excluding patients who were lost to follow-up, 161 patients were included in the final analysis. Analgesic usage doses were lower in the tamsulosin (5.1 ± 1.8) and mirabegron (4.5 ± 1.4) groups than in the control group (5.9 ± 2.1; P < .001). The urinary symptoms score was lower in tamsulosin group than it was in the control group (22.1 vs 27.8; P = .001); however, the other scores (body pain, general health, work performance, sexual matters, and other problems) were similar between the groups.

These disparities stem from complex interactions between biological, behavioral and socioeconomic factors. In recent years, telemedicine has been used to manage Type 2 Diabetes; however limited recruitment and retention of black and Hispanic/Latino patients into clinical trials exploring the use of telemedicine have necessitated the elucidation of their perceptions regarding participation in such trials. This study investigated patient-reported reasons for declining participation, prematurely terminating participation or demonstrating poor adherence to the study protocol in an ongoing randomized clinical trial, 'Feasibility of Telehealth Management of Diabetes Mellitus type 2 (T2DM) in Black and Hispanic Minority Patients'. Design: Semi-structured interviews comprised of open-ended questions and prompts were conducted by telephone to gauge patients' actual and perceived challenges to participating in the trial and using telemedicine to manage their diabetes. Data were collated with that of the original clinical trial and subsequently content analyzed for overarching themes and trends. Results: Eight semi-structured interviews were completed telephonically. Themes that emerged from analysis included disinterest (47%), inconvenience (33%), lack of perceived benefit (13%), lack of awareness of diabetes diagnosis (7%) and perceived lack of ability to fully participate in the study (7%). Conclusion: Adoption of telemedicine to help minority patients manage diabetes holds promise but is limited by patient factors such as disinterest, inconvenience and lack of perceived benefit.

1330,30660617,"Treatment of acute hepatitis C genotypes 1 and 4 with 8 weeks of grazoprevir plus elbasvir (DAHHS2): an open-label, multicentre, single-arm, phase 3b trial.","BACKGROUND
Direct-acting antivirals effectively treat chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection but there is a paucity of data on their efficacy for acute HCV, when immediate treatment could prevent onward transmission. We assessed the efficacy of grazoprevir plus elbasvir treatment in acute HCV infection and investigated whether treatment can be shortened during the acute phase of HCV infection.
METHODS
The Dutch Acute HCV in HIV study number 2 (DAHHS2) study was a single-arm, open-label, multicentre, phase 3b trial. Adult patients (≥18 years) with acute HCV genotype 1 or 4 infection (duration of infection 26 weeks or less, according to presumed day of infection) were recruited at 15 HIV outpatient clinics in the Netherlands and Belgium. All patients were treated with 8 weeks of grazoprevir 100 mg plus elbasvir 50 mg administered as one oral fixed drug combination tablet once daily. The primary efficacy endpoint was sustained virological response at 12 weeks after the end of treatment (SVR12; HCV RNA <15 IU/mL) in all patients who started treatment. Reinfection with a different HCV virus was not considered treatment failure in the primary analysis. This trial is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, number NCT02600325.
FINDINGS
Between Feb 15, 2016, and March 2, 2018, we assessed 146 patients with a recently acquired HCV infection for eligibility, of whom 86 were enrolled and 80 initiated therapy, all within 6 months after infection. All patients who initiated treatment completed treatment and no patients were lost to follow-up. 79 (99%, 95% CI 93-100) of 80 patients achieved SVR12. All 14 patients who were infected with a virus carrying a clinically significant polymorphism in NS5A were cured. If reinfections were considered treatment failures, 75 (94%, 86-98) of 80 patients achieved SVR12. Two serious adverse events not considered related to the treatment were reported (traumatic rectal bleeding and low back surgery). The most common adverse event was a new sexually transmitted infection (19 [24%] of 80 patients). The most common reported possibly drug-related adverse events were fatigue (11 [14%] patients), headache (seven [9%] patients), insomnia (seven [9%] patients), mood changes (five [6%] patients), dyspepsia (five [6%] patients), concentration impairment (four [5%] patients), and dizziness (4 [5%] patients), all of which were regarded as mild by the treating physician. No adverse events led to study drug discontinuation.
INTERPRETATION
8 weeks of grazoprevir plus elbasvir was highly effective for the treatment of acute HCV genotype 1 or 4 infection. The ability to treat acute HCV immediately after diagnosis might help physicians to reach the WHO goal of HCV elimination by 2030.

1331,27216875,Process Evaluation of Making HEPA Policy Practice: A Group Randomized Trial.,"This study examines the link between implementation of Strategies to Enhance Practice (STEPs) and outcomes. Twenty after-school programs (ASPs) participated in an intervention to increase children's accumulation of 30 minutes/day of moderate to vigorous physical activity (MVPA) and quality of snacks served during program time. Outcomes were measured via accelerometer (MVPA) and direct observation (snacks). STEPs implementation data were collected via document review and direct observation. Based on implementation data, ASPs were divided into high/low implementers. Differences between high/low implementers' change in percentage of boys accumulating 30 minutes/day of MVPA were observed. There was no difference between high/low implementers for girls. Days fruits and/or vegetables and water were served increased in the high/low implementation groups, while desserts and sugar-sweetened beverages decreased. Effect sizes (ES) for the difference in changes between the high and low group ranged from low (ES = 0.16) to high (ES = 0.97). Higher levels of implementation led to increased MVPA for boys, whereas girls MVPA benefited from the intervention regardless of high/low implementation. ESs of the difference between high/low implementers indicate that increased implementation of STEPs increases days healthier snacks are served.

1332,30621368,Endocrine response after cervical manipulation and mobilization in people with chronic mechanical neck pain: a randomized controlled trial.,"BACKGROUND
Most of the research on the effects of spinal manipulation on endocrine function has been done on healthy subjects and has yielded contradictory results. The potential role of cervical manual therapy intervention in order to induce changes in the endocrine system has not yet been investigated.
AIM
The aim of this trial is to compare the effects on salivary cortisol levels and clinical outcomes of cervical manipulation versus cervical mobilization or sham manipulation in patients with chronic mechanical neck pain.
DESIGN
Randomized controlled trial.
SETTING
University of Alcala de Henares: outpatient (referrals from office workers).
POPULATION
A total of 83 patients with chronic mechanical neck pain.
METHODS
Participants were randomized to receive one session of cervical manipulation, cervical mobilization, or sham manipulation. The measured variables were salivary cortisol levels, neck pain and disability, pressure pain thresholds (PPT), and cervical range of motion (ROM). They were obtained at baseline, immediately after treatment (except neck disability), and at one-week follow-up (except cortisol).
RESULTS
A significant and comparable increase in cortisol levels was observed immediately after cervical manipulation and mobilization (both P<0.001). Neck disability improved to a similar degree in the cervical manipulation and mobilization groups at the one-week follow-up (both P<0.001). Neck pain was reduced immediately after cervical manipulation (P<0.001), cervical mobilization (P=0.001), and sham manipulation (P<0.001). There were no significant changes in most ROM directions after either treatment. No significant interaction effect was observed for PPT.
CONCLUSIONS
Cervical manipulation and mobilization resulted in a similar increase in cortisol concentrations immediately post-treatment in people with chronic mechanical neck pain. Supraspinal mechanisms may thus play a role in the hypoalgesic effects that follow the application of both interventions.
CLINICAL REHABILITATION IMPACT
The increase in cortisol levels was similar with cervical manipulation and mobilization so induced stress levels can be similar in both interventions.",2019,"Neck pain was reduced immediately after cervical manipulation (p<0.001), cervical mobilization (p=0.001), and sham manipulation (p<0.001).","['healthy subjects', 'University of Alcala de Henares: outpatient (referrals from office workers', 'people with chronic mechanical neck pain', 'Participants', '83 patients with chronic mechanical neck pain', 'patients with chronic mechanical neck pain']","['cervical manipulation versus cervical mobilization or sham manipulation', 'cervical manual therapy intervention', 'cervical manipulation, cervical mobilization, or sham manipulation', 'cervical manipulation and mobilization']","['Neck pain', 'cervical mobilization', 'most ROM directions', 'salivary cortisol levels, neck pain and disability, pressure pain thresholds (PPT), and cervical range of motion (ROM', 'cortisol levels', 'Neck disability', 'cortisol concentrations', 'Endocrine response']","[{'cui': 'C1708335', 'cui_str': 'Healthy Participants'}, {'cui': 'C0041740', 'cui_str': 'Universities'}, {'cui': 'C0029921', 'cui_str': 'Out-patients'}, {'cui': 'C0034927', 'cui_str': 'Referral'}, {'cui': 'C0442603', 'cui_str': 'Office (environment)'}, {'cui': 'C1306056', 'cui_str': 'Worker'}, {'cui': 'C0205191', 'cui_str': 'Chronic (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0443254', 'cui_str': 'Mechanical (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0007859', 'cui_str': 'Neck Ache'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}]","[{'cui': 'C0600576', 'cui_str': 'Cervical Manipulation'}, {'cui': 'C0205064', 'cui_str': 'Cervical (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0300926', 'cui_str': 'mobilization'}, {'cui': 'C0073980', 'cui_str': 'SHAM'}, {'cui': 'C0947647', 'cui_str': 'Manipulation - action (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0454525', 'cui_str': 'Manual Therapies'}]","[{'cui': 'C0007859', 'cui_str': 'Neck Ache'}, {'cui': 'C0205064', 'cui_str': 'Cervical (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0300926', 'cui_str': 'mobilization'}, {'cui': 'C0439755', 'cui_str': 'Directions (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0442040', 'cui_str': 'Salivary (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0201968', 'cui_str': 'Cortisol measurement (procedure)'}, {'cui': 'C0231170', 'cui_str': 'Disability (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C0460139', 'cui_str': 'Pressure (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C0162703', 'cui_str': 'Pain Threshold'}, {'cui': 'C0080078', 'cui_str': 'Range of Motion'}, {'cui': 'C0027536', 'cui_str': 'Necking (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C0086045', 'cui_str': 'Concentration'}]",83.0,0.161551,"Neck pain was reduced immediately after cervical manipulation (p<0.001), cervical mobilization (p=0.001), and sham manipulation (p<0.001).","[{'ForeName': 'Antonio', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Valera-Calero', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Physical Therapy, University of Alcalá, Madrid, Spain.'}, {'ForeName': 'Enrique', 'Initials': 'E', 'LastName': 'Lluch Girbés', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Physical Therapy, University of Valencia, Valencia, Spain - enrique.lluch@uv.es.'}, {'ForeName': 'Tomás', 'Initials': 'T', 'LastName': 'Gallego-Izquierdo', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Physical Therapy, University of Alcalá, Madrid, Spain.'}, {'ForeName': 'Anneleen', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Malfliet', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Physical Therapy, University of Valencia, Valencia, Spain.'}, {'ForeName': 'Daniel', 'Initials': 'D', 'LastName': 'Pecos-Martín', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Physical Therapy, University of Alcalá, Madrid, Spain.'}]",European journal of physical and rehabilitation medicine,['10.23736/S1973-9087.19.05475-3']

The initial assessment was obtained at the time of diagnosis (T1) and the follow-up assessment was conducted after 15 months of intervention (T2) in both groups. (3) Results: Participants in the experimental group achieved more prominent gains in both cognitive and socio-interactive skills. The role of specific factors able to predict general quotient and language quotient after intervention were investigated, pointing out the contribution of personal-social and performance abilities. (4) Conclusions: The findings support the importance of parental involvement in targeting ASD core symptoms.

The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of elastic band exercises and nutritional education, as well as to identify the factors influencing frailty, strength, and nutritional intake of elderly women.
METHODS
The subjects in this study were 30 elderly women who were divided into four groups. All groups agreed to participate in four programs: health education only (HE), elastic band exercises only (EX), nutritional education only (NU), and elastic band exercises plus nutritional education (EX+NU). Frailty was evaluated by measuring the frailty factors according to Fried et al. Leg strength was measured using a leg-extension machine. Nutritional intake was assessed by the 24-hour recall method and food records. Nutritional intake was analyzed by CAN Pro 5.0 program.
RESULTS
After three months, the prevalence of frailty significantly decreased in the EX+NU group (P=0.013) compared with that of the HE group (P=0.088). There was significant improvement in leg strength in both the EX (P=0.012) and EX+NU groups (P=0.003) compared with that of the HE group (EX, P=0.005; EX+NU, P=0.002). The nutritional intake significantly decreased in the EX group compared with that of the HE group (P<0.05, P<0.05).

1335,30332336,Are the Hands of Veterinary Staff a Reservoir for Antimicrobial-Resistant Bacteria? A Randomized Study to Evaluate Two Hand Hygiene Rubs in a Veterinary Hospital.,"Hand hygiene (HH) is the most successful intervention for hospital infection control. HH rubs with residual action are desired. This study aimed to compare the efficacy of alcohol (A-HH) and lactic acid (LA-HH) rubs, with the latter being marketed as having residual activity. We investigated reductions in bacterial colony-forming units (CFUs), prevalence of antimicrobial-resistant (AMR) organisms, and risk factors for increased counts on the hands of veterinary staff. A randomized, crossover study (53 individuals) was performed in a referral veterinary teaching hospital. Hand plates were taken before, immediately after, and 6 hours after HH. A blinded investigator counted CFUs per plate. Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus / pseudintermedius (MRSA/MRSP), Enterobacteriaceae, and Pseudomonas species (spp.) were characterized. Gender, profession, time point, and HH product were included as variables within multivariable analyses. A significant reduction in bacterial CFU was seen immediately after A-HH rub application ( p < 0.001); however, neither product showed any significant residual action. Veterinarians had higher bacterial CFUs than nurses ( p = 0.005); contact with patients, rather than the environment, was also associated with higher counts ( p < 0.001). MRSA, MRSP, Enterobacteriaceae spp., and Pseudomonas spp. were detected on 7%, 2%, 14%, and 2% of study participant's hands ( n = 208 samples), respectively. Frequent HH administration using an A-HH rub was effective at reducing bacterial CFU on hands in vivo in this veterinary hospital setting, but its use needs further encouragement in veterinary staff. The high prevalence of antimicrobial bacteria on hands is of concern; they might act as reservoirs for patients, the environment, and in-contact people.",2018,"A significant reduction in bacterial CFU was seen immediately after A-HH rub application (p < 0.001); however, neither product showed any significant residual action.",['53 individuals) was performed in a referral veterinary teaching hospital'],"['Hand hygiene (HH', 'alcohol (A-HH) and lactic acid (LA-HH']","['bacterial colony-forming units (CFUs), prevalence of antimicrobial-resistant (AMR) organisms, and risk factors', 'bacterial CFUs', 'bacterial CFU']","[{'cui': 'C0237401', 'cui_str': 'Individual (person)'}, {'cui': 'C0884358', 'cui_str': 'Performed'}, {'cui': 'C0034927', 'cui_str': 'Referral'}, {'cui': 'C0042614', 'cui_str': 'veterinary'}, {'cui': 'C0020027', 'cui_str': 'Teaching Hospitals'}]","[{'cui': 'C3494474', 'cui_str': 'Hand Hygiene'}, {'cui': 'C0001975', 'cui_str': 'Alcohols'}, {'cui': 'C0064582', 'cui_str': 'Lactic acid'}]","[{'cui': 'C0439158', 'cui_str': 'colonies (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0439148', 'cui_str': 'Units (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0220900', 'cui_str': 'prevalence'}, {'cui': 'C1444089', 'cui_str': 'Resistant organism'}, {'cui': 'C0035648', 'cui_str': 'Risk factor (observable entity)'}]",,0.0234711,"A significant reduction in bacterial CFU was seen immediately after A-HH rub application (p < 0.001); however, neither product showed any significant residual action.","[{'ForeName': 'Eva', 'Initials': 'E', 'LastName': 'Espadale', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Small Animal Clinical Science, Institute of Veterinary Science, University of Liverpool, Neston, United Kingdom.'}, {'ForeName': 'Gina', 'Initials': 'G', 'LastName': 'Pinchbeck', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Epidemiology and Population Health and Institute of Infection and Global Health, University of Liverpool, Neston, United Kingdom.'}, {'ForeName': 'Nicola J', 'Initials': 'NJ', 'LastName': 'Williams', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Epidemiology and Population Health and Institute of Infection and Global Health, University of Liverpool, Neston, United Kingdom.'}, {'ForeName': 'Dorina', 'Initials': 'D', 'LastName': 'Timofte', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Small Animal Clinical Science, Institute of Veterinary Science, University of Liverpool, Neston, United Kingdom.'}, {'ForeName': 'K Marie', 'Initials': 'KM', 'LastName': 'McIntyre', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Epidemiology and Population Health and Institute of Infection and Global Health, University of Liverpool, Neston, United Kingdom.'}, {'ForeName': 'Vanessa M', 'Initials': 'VM', 'LastName': 'Schmidt', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Small Animal Clinical Science, Institute of Veterinary Science, University of Liverpool, Neston, United Kingdom.'}]","Microbial drug resistance (Larchmont, N.Y.)",['10.1089/mdr.2018.0183']
1336,31586587,Combination of baicalein and ethanol-wet-bonding improves dentin bonding durability.,"OBJECTIVES
This study aimed to investigate the potential of baicalein combined with ethanol-wet bonding (EWB) in improving dentin bonding durability.
METHODS
Sixty caries-free human third molars were randomly allocated into four groups and pretreated with solutions after sectioning and polishing. The pretreatments were prepared via dissolving baicalein in ethanol at concentrations of 0, 0.01%, 0.05% and 0.1% (w/v). Microtensile bond strength (MTBS) test, failure mode analysis and interfacial nanoleakage evaluation were conducted immediately or after thermocycling or 1 month of collagenase aging. In situ zymography, contact angle, antibacterial activity and bioactivity were comprehensively assessed.
RESULTS
Results demonstrated that the three experimental groups exhibited higher MTBS and lower nanoleakage expression regardless of aging. MMP activity within hybrid layer and Streptococcus. mutans biofilm formation were inhibited in the experimental groups in a dose-dependent manner. Baicalein also reduced reactive oxygen species (ROS) expression in human dental pulp cells and resisted adhesive-induced cytotoxicity. Baicalein exhibited remarkable capabilities at concentrations higher than 0.05% (w/v).
CONCLUSION
Baicalein is a prospective candidate as bioactive dentin bonding agent. Combined with EWB, baicalein may form a functional bonding interface, thereby enhancing dentin bond strength and durability.

1337,32408412,The effect of short-term creatine intake on blood lactic acid and muscle fatigue measured by accelerometer-based tremor response to acute resistance exercise.,"PURPOSE
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of short-term creatine intake on muscle fatigue induced by resistance exercise in healthy adolescent men, i.e., lactic acid concentration and wrist and head tremor measured by an accelerometer.
METHODS
Twelve healthy adolescent men who had no experience with creatine intake were included. The subjects were randomly assigned to the creatine group and the placebo group, followed by 5 days of creatine and placebo intake, and 5 times of 5 sets of leg press, leg extension, bench press, and arm curl exercises at 70% repetition maximum (RM). The lactic acid concentration before and after exercising, rate of perceived exertion (RPE), and accelerometer-based wrist tremor and head tremor during exercise were measured. Subsequently, after 7 days to allow for creatine washout, the same exercise treatment and measurement were performed in each group after switching drug and placebo between the groups.
RESULTS
The level of lactic acid before and after the acute resistance exercise trial was significantly lower in the creatine group than in the placebo group (P <0.05). The mean RPE during the resistance exercise was significantly lower in the creatine group than in the placebo group (P <0.05). There was no difference between the two groups in the mean wrist tremor during resistance exercise, but the mean head tremor values were significantly lower in the creatine group than in the placebo group in the arm curl, the last event of the exercise trials (P <0.05).
CONCLUSION
Short-term creatine intake reduces the blood fatigue factor increased by resistance exercise, and is thought to suppress fatigue, especially in the latter half of resistance exercise. Therefore, these findings indicate that short-term creatine intake can have an improved effect on anaerobic exercise performance.",2020,"There was no difference between the two groups in the mean wrist tremor during resistance exercise, but the mean head tremor values were significantly lower in the creatine group than in the placebo group in the arm curl, the last event of the exercise trials (P <0.05).

1338,30606271,Modulation of anterior cingulate cortex reward and penalty signalling in medication-naive young-adult subjects with depressive symptoms following acute dose lurasidone.,"BACKGROUND
Aberrations in reward and penalty processing are implicated in depression and putatively reflect altered dopamine signalling. This study exploits the advantages of a placebo-controlled design to examine how a novel D2 antagonist with adjunctive antidepressant properties modifies activity in the brain's reward network in depression.
METHODS
We recruited 43 medication-naïve subjects across the range of depression severity (Beck's Depression Inventory-II score range: 0-43), including healthy volunteers, as well as people meeting full-criteria for major depressive disorder. In a double-blind placebo-controlled cross-over design, all subjects received either placebo or lurasidone (20 mg) across two visits separated by 1 week. Functional magnetic resonance imaging with the Monetary Incentive Delay (MID) task assessed reward functions via neural responses during anticipation and receipt of gains and losses. Arterial spin labelling measured cerebral blood flow (CBF) at rest.
RESULTS
Lurasidone altered fronto-striatal activity during anticipation and outcome phases of the MID task. A significant three-way Medication-by-Depression severity-by-Outcome interaction emerged in the anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) after correction for multiple comparisons. Follow-up analyses revealed significantly higher ACC activation to losses in high- v. low depression participants in the placebo condition, with a normalisation by lurasidone. This effect could not be accounted for by shifts in resting CBF.
CONCLUSIONS
Lurasidone acutely normalises reward processing signals in individuals with depressive symptoms. Lurasidone's antidepressant effects may arise from reducing responses to penalty outcomes in individuals with depressive symptoms.",2019,"Follow-up analyses revealed significantly higher ACC

1339,31667987,Lung ultrasound-guided treatment in ambulatory patients with heart failure: a randomized controlled clinical trial (LUS-HF study).,"AIMS
Lung ultrasound (LUS) is a useful tool with which to assess subclinical pulmonary congestion and to stratify the prognosis of patients with heart failure (HF). The aim of this study was to evaluate whether an LUS-guided follow-up protocol improves the outcomes of patients with HF.
METHODS AND RESULTS
In this single-blind clinical trial, 123 patients admitted for HF were randomized to either a standard follow-up (n = 62, control group) or a LUS-guided follow-up (n = 61, LUS group). The primary endpoint was a composite of urgent visit, hospitalization for worsening HF and death during follow-up. Visits were scheduled at 14, 30, 90 and 180 days after discharge. Treating physicians were encouraged to modify diuretic therapy in accordance with the number of B-lines recorded by LUS. The mean ± standard deviation (SD) age of the patients was 69 ± 12 years and 72% were male. The mean ± SD left ventricular ejection fraction was 39 ± 14%. The hazard ratio for the primary outcome in the LUS group was 0.518 [95% confidence interval (CI) 0.268-0.998; P = 0.049], mainly resulting from a decrease in the number of urgent visits for worsening HF. The number of patients needed to treat to avoid an event was 5 (95% CI 3-62). Other secondary endpoints such as N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide reduction were not achieved. The safety parameters were similar in the two groups. Patients in the LUS group received more loop diuretics [51 (91%) vs. 42 (75%); P = 0.02] and showed an improvement in the distance achieved in the 6-min walking test [60 m (interquartile range: 29-125 m) vs. 37 m (interquartile range: 5-70 m); P = 0.023].
CONCLUSIONS
Tailored LUS-guided diuretic treatment of pulmonary congestion in this proof-of-concept study reduced the number of decompensations and improved walking capacity in patients with HF. LUS is a non-invasive, safe and easy-to-use technique with potential clinical applicability to guide pulmonary congestion treatment in patients with HF.",2019,"LUS is a non-invasive, safe and easy-to-use technique with potential clinical applicability to guide pulmonary congestion treatment in patients with HF.","['123 patients admitted for HF', 'patients with HF', 'patients with heart failure (HF', 'ambulatory patients with heart failure', 'age of the patients was 69\u2009±\u200912\u2009years and 72% were male']","['Lung ultrasound-guided treatment', 'LUS-guided follow-up protocol', 'LUS-guided follow-up', 'loop diuretics', 'Lung ultrasound (LUS', 'LUS']","['number of decompensations and improved walking capacity', 'number of urgent visits for worsening HF', 'mean\u2009±\u2009SD left ventricular ejection fraction', 'composite of urgent visit, hospitalization for worsening HF and death', 'distance achieved in the 6-min walking test', 'N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide reduction', 'hazard ratio', 'mean\u2009±\u2009standard deviation (SD']","[{'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C0018801', 'cui_str': 'Cardiac Failure'}, {'cui': 'C0439841', 'cui_str': 'Ambulatory'}, {'cui': 'C0001792', 'cui_str': 'Elderly'}, {'cui': 'C0439234', 'cui_str': 'year (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0086582', 'cui_str': 'Males'}]","[{'cui': 'C4286019', 'cui_str': 'Lung ultrasound'}, {'cui': 'C0302614', 'cui_str': 'Guide -

1340,32408551,Changing Exposure Perceptions: A Randomized Controlled Trial of an Intervention with Smoking Parents.,"Children who live with smokers are at risk of poor health, and of becoming smokers themselves. Misperceptions of the nature of tobacco smoke exposure have been demonstrated among parents, resulting in continued smoking in their children's environment. This study aimed to change parents' perceptions of exposure by providing information on second- and third-hand exposure and personalised information on children's exposure [NIH registry (NCT02867241)]. One hundred and fifty-nine families with a child < 8 years and at least one smoking parent were randomized into intervention (69), control (70), and enhanced control (20) groups. Reported exposure, parental smoking details, and a child hair sample were obtained at the start of the study and 6-8 months later. Parental perceptions of exposure (PPE) were assessed via a questionnaire. The intervention consisted of motivational interviews, feedback of home air quality and child's hair nicotine level, and information brochures. PPE were significantly higher at the study end (94.6 ± 17.6) compared to study beginning (86.5 ± 19.3) in intervention and enhanced control groups (t(72) = -3.950; p < 0.001). PPE at study end were significantly higher in the intervention group compared to the regular control group ( p = 0.020). There was no significant interaction between time and group. Parallel changes in parental smoking behaviour were found. Parental perceptions of exposure were increased significantly post intervention, indicating that they can be altered. By making parents more aware of exposure and the circumstances in which it occurs, we can help parents change their smoking behaviour and better protect their children.",2020,PPE at study end were significantly higher in the intervention group compared to the regular control group ( p = 0.020).,"['Children who live with smokers', 'One hundred and fifty-nine families with a child < 8 years and at least one smoking parent']","[""motivational interviews, feedback of home air quality and child's hair nicotine level, and information brochures""]","['parental smoking behaviour', 'PPE', 'Parental perceptions of exposure (PPE']","[{'cui': 'C0008059', 'cui_str': 'Child'}, {'cui': 'C0595998', 'cui_str': 'Household composition'}, {'cui': 'C0337664', 'cui_str': 'Smoker'}, {'cui': 'C4321486', 'cui_str': '150'}, {'cui': 'C0015576', 'cui_str': 'Family'}, {'cui': 'C0439234', 'cui_str': 'year'}, {'cui': 'C0037369', 'cui_str': 'Smoking'}, {'cui': 'C0030551', 'cui_str': 'Parent'}]","[{'cui': 'C0683474', 'cui_str': 'Motivational interviewing'}, {'cui': 'C0015744', 'cui_str': 'Feedback'}, {'cui': 'C0442519', 'cui_str': 'Domestic'}, {'cui': 'C2371710', 'cui_str': 'Air Quality'}, {'cui': 'C0008059', 'cui_str': 'Child'}, {'cui': 'C0018494', 'cui_str': 'Hair structure'}, {'cui': 'C0202431', 'cui_str': 'Nicotine measurement'}, {'cui': 'C0030258', 'cui_str': 'Booklets'}]","[{'cui': 'C0030551', 'cui_str': 'Parent'}, {'cui': 'C0037369', 'cui_str': 'Smoking'}, {'cui': 'C0004927', 'cui_str': 'Behavior finding'}, {'cui': 'C0030971', 'cui_str': 'Perception'}, {'cui': 'C0274281', 'cui_str': 'Effect of exposure to external cause'}]",159.0,0.0176672,PPE at study end were significantly higher in the intervention group compared to the regular control group ( p = 0.020).,"[{'ForeName': 'Vicki', 'Initials': 'V', 'LastName': 'Myers', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Health Promotion, School of Public Health, Sackler Faculty of Medicine, Tel Aviv University, Ramat Aviv, Tel Aviv 6997801, Israel.'}, {'ForeName': 'Shoshana', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Shiloh', 'Affiliation': 'School of Psychological Sciences, Gershon H.

1341,32408644,Efficacy of the Rotary Instrument XP-Endo Finisher in the Removal of Calcium Hydroxide Intracanal Medicament in Combination with Different Irrigation Techniques: A Microtomographic Study.,"OBJECTIVES
This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of the rotary instrument XP-endo Finisher for the removal of Ca(OH) 2 aided by different irrigation regimens.
METHODS
Sixteen double-rooted upper premolar human teeth were selected for the study. Thirty-two canals were prepared using a ProTaper Next rotary system up to X3. Then, the canals were filled with Ca(OH) 2 . The volume of Ca(OH) 2 inside the canals was measured by microcomputed tomography (micro-CT). After that, the teeth were randomly allocated into two experimental groups, i.e., A and B (n = 16 canals). In group A, Ca(OH) 2 was removed using the master apical file (X3). In group B, Ca(OH) 2 was removed using a XP-endo finisher. In half of both groups (n = 8), syringe irrigation (SI) was used, while passive ultrasonic irrigation (PUI) was used for the other half. After removal, the remaining volume of Ca(OH) 2 was measured. All data were statistically analyzed using two-way ANOVA with Tukey's post hoc test.
RESULTS
The percentages of remaining Ca(OH) 2 in the apical thirds of all canals were significantly higher as compared with the middle and coronal thirds in all groups ( p < 0.05). There was no significant difference between different files and techniques ( p > 0.05).

1343,31676222,"Odanacatib for the treatment of postmenopausal osteoporosis: results of the LOFT multicentre, randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial and LOFT Extension study.","BACKGROUND
Odanacatib, a cathepsin K inhibitor, reduces bone resorption while maintaining bone formation. Previous work has shown that odanacatib increases bone mineral density in postmenopausal women with low bone mass. We aimed to investigate the efficacy and safety of odanacatib to reduce fracture risk in postmenopausal women with osteoporosis.
METHODS
The Long-term Odanacatib Fracture Trial (LOFT) was a multicentre, randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, event-driven study at 388 outpatient clinics in 40 countries. Eligible participants were women aged at least 65 years who were postmenopausal for 5 years or more, with a femoral neck or total hip bone mineral density T-score between -2·5 and -4·0 if no previous radiographic vertebral fracture, or between -1·5 and -4·0 with a previous vertebral fracture. Women with a previous hip fracture, more than one vertebral fracture, or a T-score of less than -4·0 at the total hip or femoral neck were not eligible unless they were unable or unwilling to use approved osteoporosis treatment. Participants were randomly assigned (1:1) to either oral odanacatib (50 mg once per week) or matching placebo. Randomisation was done using an interactive voice recognition system after stratification for previous radiographic vertebral fracture, and treatment was masked to study participants, investigators and their staff, and sponsor personnel. If the study completed before 5 years of double-blind treatment, consenting participants could enrol in a double-blind extension study (LOFT Extension), continuing their original treatment assignment for up to 5 years from randomisation. Primary endpoints were incidence of vertebral fractures as assessed using radiographs collected at baseline, 6 and 12 months, yearly, and at final study visit in participants for whom evaluable radiograph images were available at baseline and at least one other timepoint, and hip and non-vertebral fractures adjudicated as being a result of osteoporosis as assessed by clinical history and radiograph. Safety was assessed in participants who received at least one dose of study drug. The adjudicated cardiovascular safety endpoints were a composite of cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, or stroke, and new-onset atrial fibrillation or flutter. Individual cardiovascular endpoints and death were also assessed. LOFT and LOFT Extension are registered with ClinicalTrials.gov (number NCT00529373) and the European Clinical Trials Database (EudraCT number 2007-002693-66).
FINDINGS
Between Sept 14, 2007, and Nov 17, 2009, we randomly assigned 16 071 evaluable patients to treatment: 8043 to odanacatib and 8028 to placebo. After a median follow-up of 36·5 months (IQR 34·43-40·15) 4297 women assigned to odanacatib and 3960 assigned to placebo enrolled in LOFT Extension (total median follow-up 47·6 months, IQR 35·45-60·06). In LOFT, cumulative incidence of primary outcomes for odanacatib versus placebo were: radiographic vertebral fractures 3·7% (251/6770) versus 7·8% (542/6910), hazard ratio (HR) 0·46, 95% CI 0·40-0·53; hip fractures 0·8% (65/8043) versus 1·6% (125/8028), 0·53, 0·39-0·71; non-vertebral fractures 5·1% (412/8043) versus 6·7% (541/8028), 0·77, 0·68-0·87; all p<0·0001. Combined results from LOFT plus LOFT Extension for cumulative incidence of primary outcomes for odanacatib versus placebo were: radiographic vertebral fractures 4·9% (341/6909) versus 9·6% (675/7011), HR 0·48, 95% CI 0·42-0·55; hip fractures 1·1% (86/8043) versus 2·0% (162/8028), 0·52, 0·40-0·67; non-vertebral fractures 6·4% (512/8043) versus 8·4% (675/8028), 0·74, 0·66-0·83; all p<0·0001. In LOFT, the composite cardiovascular endpoint of cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, or stroke occurred in 273 (3·4%) of 8043 patients in the odanacatib group versus 245 (3·1%) of 8028 in the placebo group (HR 1·12, 95% CI 0·95-1·34; p=0·18). New-onset atrial fibrillation or flutter occurred in 112 (1·4%) of 8043 patients in the odanacatib group versus 96 (1·2%) of 8028 in the placebo group (HR 1·18, 0·90-1·55; p=0·24). Odanacatib was associated with an increased risk of stroke (1·7% [136/8043] vs 1·3% [104/8028], HR 1·32, 1·02-1·70; p=0·034), but not myocardial infarction (0·7% [60/8043] vs 0·9% [74/8028], HR 0·82, 0·58-1·15; p=0·26). The HR for all-cause mortality was 1·13 (5·0% [401/8043] vs 4·4% [356/8028], 0·98-1·30; p=0·10). When data from LOFT Extension were included, the composite of cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, or stroke occurred in significantly more patients in the odanacatib group than in the placebo group (401 [5·0%] of 8043 vs 343 [4·3%] of 8028, HR 1·17, 1·02-1·36; p=0·029, as did stroke (2·3% [187/8043] vs 1·7% [137/8028], HR 1·37, 1·10-1·71; p=0·0051).
INTERPRETATION
Odanacatib reduced the risk of fracture, but was associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular events, specifically stroke, in postmenopausal women with osteoporosis. Based on the overall balance between benefit and risk, the study's sponsor decided that they would no longer pursue development of odanacatib for treatment of osteoporosis.

1344,31650069,Graded exposure treatment for adolescents with chronic pain (GET Living): Protocol for a randomized controlled trial enhanced with single case experimental design.,"Chronic musculoskeletal pain in adolescence is a significant public health concern with 3-5% of adolescents suffering from significant pain-related disability. Pain-related fear and avoidance of activities has been found to have a significant influence on pain outcomes in children and adolescents and is a risk factor for less favorable response to treatment. To address this need, we developed graded exposure treatment for youth with chronic pain (GET Living). We describe the rationale, design, and implementation of a two-group randomized controlled trial (RCT) enhanced with single-case experimental design (SCED) methodology with a sample of 74 adolescents with chronic musculosketal pain and their parent caregivers. GET Living includes education, behavioral exposures, and parent intervention jointly delivered by pain psychology and physical therapy providers. The multidisciplinary pain management control group includes pain psychology delivered education and pain self-management skills training (e.g., relaxation, cognitive skills) and separate physical therapy. Assessments include brief daily diaries (baseline to discharge, 7-days at 3-month and 6-month follow-up), comprehensive in-person evaluations at baseline and discharge, and questionnaire across all time points (baseline, discharge, 3-month and 6-month follow-up). Primary outcome is pain-related fear avoidance. Secondary outcome is functional disability. We also outline all additional outcomes, exploratory outcomes, covariates, and implementation measures. The objective is to offer a mechanism-based, targeted intervention to youth with musculoskeletal pain to enhance likelihood of return to function.",2019,Pain-related fear and avoidance of activities has been found to have a significant influence on pain outcomes in children and adolescents and is a risk factor for less favorable response to treatment.,"['adolescents with chronic pain (GET Living', 'youth with chronic pain (GET Living', 'children and adolescents', '74 adolescents with chronic musculosketal pain and their parent caregivers']","['multidisciplinary pain management control group includes pain psychology delivered education and pain self-management skills training (e.g., relaxation, cognitive skills) and separate physical therapy', 'single-case experimental design (SCED) methodology', 'Graded exposure treatment']","['pain outcomes', 'brief daily diaries (baseline to discharge, 7-days at 3-month and 6-month follow-up), comprehensive in-person evaluations at baseline and discharge, and questionnaire across all time points (baseline, discharge, 3-month and 6-month follow-up', 'pain-related fear avoidance', 'functional disability', 'Chronic musculoskeletal pain']","[{'cui': 'C0205653', 'cui_str': 'Adolescent'}, {'cui': 'C0150055', 'cui_str': 'Chronic pain (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C0087178', 'cui_str': 'Youth'}, {'cui': 'C0008059', 'cui_str': 'Child'}, {'cui': 'C0205191', 'cui_str': 'Chronic (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0030193', 'cui_str': 'Pain'}, {'cui': 'C0085537', 'cui_str': 'Care Givers'}]","[{'cui': 'C0002766', 'cui_str': 'Pain management (procedure)'}, {'cui': 'C0009932', 'cui_str': 'Control Groups'}, {'cui': 'C0332257', 'cui_str': 'Including (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0030193', 'cui_str': 'Pain'}, {'cui': 'C0033909', 'cui_str': 'Psychology'}, {'cui': 'C0013621', 'cui_str': 'Education'}, {'cui': 'C0086969', 'cui_str': 'Self-Management'}, {'cui': 'C0559197', 'cui_str': 'Skills training (procedure)'}, {'cui': 'C0035028', 'cui_str': 'Relaxation'}, {'cui': 'C0443299', 'cui_str': 'Separate (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0699718', 'cui_str': 'Physiotherapy (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0205171', 'cui_str': 'Singular (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0868928', 'cui_str': 'Case -

1345,31567725,Extended Prophylaxis With Nevirapine Does Not Affect Growth in HIV-Exposed Infants.,"BACKGROUND
Effects of prolonged nevirapine prophylaxis exposure on growth among HIV-exposed uninfected (HEU) infants are unknown. This study examines the impact of extended nevirapine prophylaxis from 6 weeks to 6 months on the growth of HEU infants followed for 18 months and also identifies correlates of incident wasting, stunting, underweight, and low head circumference in the HPTN 046 trial.
METHODS
Intention-to-treat analysis examined the effect of extended nevirapine exposure on: weight-for-age Z-score, length-for-age Z-score, weight-for-length Z-score, and head circumference-for-age Z-score. Multivariable linear mixed-effects and Cox proportional hazard models were used to compare growth outcomes between the study arms and identify correlates of incident adverse growth outcomes, respectively.
RESULTS
Compared to placebo, extended prophylactic nevirapine given daily from 6 weeks to 6 months did not affect growth in HEU breastfeeding (BF) infants over time (treatment × time: P > 0.05). However, overall growth declined over time (time effect: P < 0.01) when compared with WHO general population norms. Male sex was associated with higher risk of all adverse growth outcomes (P < 0.05), whereas short BF duration was associated with wasting (P = 0.03). Maternal antiretroviral therapy exposure was protective against underweight (P = 0.02). Zimbabwe tended to have worse growth outcomes especially stunting, compared to South Africa, Uganda and Tanzania (P < 0.05).
CONCLUSIONS
It is reassuring that prolonged exposure to nevirapine for prevention-of-mother-to-child HIV transmission does not restrict growth.

1346,32408846,A randomized controlled trial of acceptance and commitment therapy for psychological distress among persons with traumatic brain injury.,"Psychological distress is common in persons with traumatic brain injury (TBI) but treatments remain underdeveloped. This randomized controlled trial of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) was designed to address this gap. Ninety-three persons with medically-documented complicated mild to severe TBI, normal-to-mildly impaired memory, and clinically significant psychological distress in the chronic phase of recovery were randomized to receive eight weeks of ACT (manualized with adaptations to address TBI-related cognitive impairments) or a single session of needs assessment, brief counseling/education, and referral. The ACT group showed significantly greater reduction of psychological distress (Brief Symptom Inventory 18) and demonstrated improvements in psychological flexibility and commitment to action (Acceptance and Action Questionnaire-II (AAQ-II) scores). The number of treatment responders (post-treatment BSI 18 GSI T scores <63) was larger in the ACT group than in the control group. Entry of AAQ-II scores into the model of between-group differences in BSI 18 GSI T scores indicated that core ACT processes explained the variance in treatment group outcomes. Provision of ACT reduces psychological distress in persons with TBI in the chronic phase of recovery when adaptations are made to accommodate TBI-related cognitive impairments.

However, designing a rehabilitation intervention that appeals to men is challenging. This study protocol aims to describe the 'Wildman Programme', which will be a nature-based rehabilitation programme for men on long-term sick leave due to health problems such as stress, anxiety, depression, post-cancer and chronic cancer, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), cardiovascular disease, or diabetes type II. The programme will be a nature-based rehabilitation initiative combining nature experiences, attention training, body awareness training, and supporting community spirit. The aim of the study will be to examine whether the 'Wildman Programme' can help to increase quality of life and reduce stress among men with health problems compared to treatment as usual. The study will be a matched control study where an intervention group (number of respondents, N = 52) participating in a 12-week nature-based intervention will be compared to a control group ( N = 52) receiving treatment as usual. Outcomes are measured at baseline (T1), post-treatment (T2), and at follow up 6 months post-intervention (T3).

This report elucidates the strategic enrichment design utilized to create efficiency and precision in the development program. Methods: Post-hoc analyses describe learning, sequential iteration, and evolution in study design. Results: The first Phase 3 study of edaravone in ALS (Study MCI186-16) included a large proportion (35%) of placebo patients who were minimal progressors. These patients demonstrated high heterogeneity in change in ALSFRS-R score (-4 median with interquartile range [IQR] 7.5) and a modal distribution score of 0, suggesting evidence of minimal change in ALSFRS-R during the study. This level of variability and rate of progression may have made it difficult to detect a prospective treatment effect in the study. A strategic enrichment strategy provided the second Phase 3 study (Study MCI186-19) with the ability to detect a treatment effect. In Study MCI186-19, only 13% of the placebo patients were minimal progressors. Further, these placebo patients demonstrated less heterogeneity and greater functional progression of ALS, thereby providing greater likelihood of detecting a treatment effect. The enrichment strategy may have excluded some rapidly progressing patients, potentially supporting the detection of a treatment effect. As previously published, Study MCI186-19 prospectively documented a 33% reduction in rate of progression of ALS ( p = 0.0013).

1349,30790446,Index of microvascular resistance to assess the effect of rosuvastatin on microvascular function in women with chest pain and no obstructive coronary artery disease: A double-blind randomized study.,"INTRODUCTION
Many women undergoing coronary angiography for chest pain have no or only minimal coronary artery disease (CAD). However, despite the lack of obstructive CAD, they still have an increased risk of major adverse cardiovascular events. Pleiotropic effects of statins may influence microvascular function, but if statins improve microvascular function in unselected chest pain patients is not well studied. This study assessed microvascular function by using the thermodilution-derived test ""the index of microvascular resistance"" (IMR) with the aim of determining the (i) IMR level in women with chest pain and non-obstructive CAD and if (ii) IMR is modified by high-dose statin treatment in these patients. Additional objectives were to identify the influence of statins on the health status as assessed with generic health questionnaires and on biomarkers of endothelial activation.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
The study was a randomized, double-blind, single-center trial comparing 6 months of rosuvastatin treatment with placebo. In total, 66 women without obstructive CAD were included. Mean age was 52.7 years and 55.5 years in the placebo and rosuvastatin group, respectively. Microvascular function was assessed using the IMR, health status was assessed using the SF-36 and EQ-5D questionnaires, and biochemical values were assessed at baseline and 6 months later.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS
In the placebo group IMR was 14.6 (SD 5.7) at baseline and 14.4 (SD 6.5) at follow-up. In the rosuvastatin group IMR was 16.5 (SD 7.5) at baseline and 14.2 (SD 5.8) at follow-up. IMR did not differ significantly between the two study groups at follow-up controlled for preintervention values. C-reactive protein (CRP) was comparable between the groups at baseline, while at follow-up CRP was significantly lower in the rosuvastatin group compared to placebo [0.6 (±0.5) mg/L vs. 2.6 (±3.0) mg/L; p = 0.002]. Whereas rosuvastatin treatment for 6 months attenuated CRP levels, it did not improve microvascular function as assessed by IMR (Clinical Trials.gov NCT01582165, EUDRACT 2011-002630-39.3tcAZ).",2019,"Whereas rosuvastatin treatment for 6 months attenuated CRP levels, it did not improve microvascular function as assessed by IMR (Clinical Trials.gov NCT 01582165, EUDRACT 2011-002630-39.3tcAZ).","['women with chest pain and non-obstructive CAD and if (ii) IMR', 'Mean age was 52.7 years and 55.5 years in the', 'women with chest pain and no obstructive coronary artery disease', '66 women without obstructive CAD', 'unselected chest pain patients', 'women undergoing coronary angiography for chest pain have no or only minimal coronary artery disease (CAD']","['rosuvastatin', 'placebo', 'placebo and rosuvastatin']","['IMR, health status', 'Microvascular function', 'microvascular function', 'CRP levels', 'SF-36 and EQ-5D questionnaires, and biochemical values', 'C-reactive protein (CRP', 'IMR']","[{'cui': 'C0043210', 'cui_str': 'Girls'}, {'cui': 'C0008031', 'cui_str': 'Chest Pain'}, {'cui': 'C0205304', 'cui_str': 'Non-obstructive (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0444504', 'cui_str': 'Mean (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0001792', 'cui_str': 'Elderly'}, {'cui': 'C0439234', 'cui_str': 'year (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C1956346', 'cui_str': 'Coronary Artery Disease'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C0085532', 'cui_str': 'Angiography of coronary arteries'}, {'cui': 'C0547040', 'cui_str': 'Minimal (qualifier value)'}]","[{'cui': 'C0965129', 'cui_str': 'rosuvastatin'}, {'cui': 'C1696465', 'cui_str': 'placebo'}]","[{'cui': 'C0018759', 'cui_str': 'Level of Health'}, {'cui': 'C0443258', 'cui_str': 'Microvascular (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0031843', 'cui_str': 'function'}, {'cui': 'C0456079', 'cui_str': 'Level (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0034394', 'cui_str': 'Questionnaires'}, {'cui': 'C0205474', 'cui_str': 'Biochemical (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C1273875', 'cui_str': 'Values (community)'}, {'cui': 'C0201657', 'cui_str': 'C-reactive protein measurement (procedure)'}]",66.0,0.239016,"Whereas rosuvastatin treatment for 6 months attenuated CRP levels, it did not improve microvascular function as assessed by IMR (Clinical Trials.gov NCT 01582165, EUDRACT 2011-002630-39.3tcAZ).","[{'ForeName': 'Ole Geir', 'Initials': 'OG', 'LastName': 'Solberg', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Cardiology, Oslo University Hospital, Rikshospitalet, Oslo, Norway.'}, {'ForeName': 'Knut', 'Initials': 'K', 'LastName': 'Stavem', 'Affiliation': 'Faculty of Medicine, Institute of Clinical Medicine, University of Oslo, Oslo, Norway.'}, {'ForeName': 'Asgrimur', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Ragnarsson', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Radiology, Oslo University Hospital, Rikshospitalet, Oslo, Norway.'}, {'ForeName': 'Jan-Otto', 'Initials': 'JO', 'LastName': 'Beitnes', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Cardiology, Oslo University Hospital, Rikshospitalet, Oslo, Norway.'}, {'ForeName': 'Rita', 'Initials': 'R', 'LastName': 'Skårdal', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Cardiology, Oslo University Hospital, Rikshospitalet, Oslo, Norway.'}, {'ForeName': 'Ingebjørg', 'Initials': 'I', 'LastName': 'Seljeflot', 'Affiliation': 'Faculty of Medicine, Institute of Clinical Medicine, University of Oslo, Oslo, Norway.'}, {'ForeName': 'Thor', 'Initials': 'T', 'LastName': 'Ueland', 'Affiliation': 'Faculty of Medicine, Institute of Clinical Medicine, University of Oslo, Oslo, Norway.'}, {'ForeName': 'Pål', 'Initials': 'P', 'LastName': 'Aukrust', 'Affiliation': 'Faculty of Medicine, Institute of Clinical Medicine, University of Oslo, Oslo, Norway.'}, {'ForeName': 'Lars', 'Initials': 'L', 'LastName': 'Gullestad', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Cardiology, Oslo University Hospital, Rikshospitalet, Oslo, Norway.'}, {'ForeName': 'Lars', 'Initials': 'L', 'LastName': 'Aaberge', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Cardiology, Oslo University Hospital, Rikshospitalet, Oslo, Norway.'}]",Catheterization and cardiovascular interventions : official journal of the Society for Cardiac Angiography & Interventions,['10.1002/ccd.28157']
1350,32408795,Measuring outcomes of a peer-led social communication skills intervention for adults with acquired brain injury: A pilot investigation.,"Reduced social competence following severe acquired brain injury (ABI) is well-documented. This pilot study investigated a peer-led group intervention based on the claim that peer models may be a more effective mechanism for behaviour change than clinician-led approaches. Twelve participants with severe ABI were recruited from a post-acute neurorehabilitation setting and randomly assigned to either a peer-led intervention or a staff-led activity group (usual care) (Clinicaltrials.gov: NCT02211339). The groups met twice a week for 8 weeks. A peer was trained separately to facilitate interaction in the intervention group. Training comprised 16 individual sessions over 4 weeks. Group behaviour was measured twice at baseline, after intervention and at maintenance (4 weeks), using the Adapted Measure of Participation in Conversation (MPC) and the Interactional Network Tool (INT), a newly devised measure of group conversational interaction. Outcome measures showed differential sensitivity. The groups did not differ in baseline behaviour.

1351,30544227,In the Eyes of Those Who Were Randomized: Perceptions of Disadvantaged Older Adults in a Tai Chi Trial.,"BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES
Older adults living in subsidized housing have typically been excluded from exercise intervention studies. We conducted a qualitative study to explore the perceived physical, psychological, social, and economic factors that influenced participation in and adherence to a year-long Tai Chi intervention within an ongoing cluster-randomized controlled trial (RCT) for older adults living within subsidized housing facilities.
RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS
Focus groups were held with participants of the RCT who were allocated to the trial's Tai Chi intervention. Individual phone interviews were conducted with those allocated to Tai Chi who had low adherence or who had withdrawn their participation from the study. Emergent themes were extracted using grounded-theory methods.
RESULTS
In this qualitative study, we enrolled 41 participants who were allocated to the RCT's Tai Chi intervention: 38 completed and 3 withdrew from the study. Average Tai Chi class attendance was 64.3%. Pragmatic factors that led to higher adherence and retention included: locating classes within each facility; providing programs at no cost; and deployment of a skilled research support team. In addition, the use of an accessible, simplified Tai Chi program improved confidence, social support, self-efficacy, and self-reported improvements in physical and psychological well-being.
DISCUSSION AND IMPLICATIONS
Perceived physical, psychological, social benefits, and self-efficacy likely enhance adherence and retention to research-based Tai Chi interventions for older adults. Delivering an on-site, no cost, and supportive program appears critical to overcoming financial and environmental barriers to participation for those living within subsidized housing.",2020,"In addition, the use of an accessible, simplified Tai Chi program improved confidence, social support, self-efficacy, and self-reported improvements in physical and psychological well-being.

1352,28832927,Innovation in a Learning Health Care System: Veteran-Directed Home- and Community-Based Services.,"A path-breaking example of the interplay between geriatrics and learning healthcare systems is the Veterans Health Administration's (VHA's) planned roll-out of a program for providing participant-directed home- and community-based services to veterans with cognitive and functional limitations. We describe the design of a large-scale, stepped-wedge, cluster-randomized trial of the Veteran-Directed Home- and Community-Based Services (VD-HCBS) program. From March 2017 through December 2019, up to 77 Veterans Affairs Medical Centers will be randomized to times to begin offering VD-HCBS to veterans at risk of nursing home placement. Services will be provided to community-dwelling participants with support from Aging and Disability Network Agencies. The VHA Partnered Evidence-based Policy Resource Center (PEPReC) is coordinating the evaluation, which includes collaboration from operational stakeholders from the VHA and Administration for Community Living and interdisciplinary researchers from the Center of Innovation in Long-Term Services and Supports and the Center for Health Services Research in Primary Care. For older veterans with functional limitations who are eligible for VD-HCBS, we will evaluate health outcomes (hospitalizations, emergency department visits, nursing home admissions, days at home) and healthcare costs associated with VD-HCBS availability. Learning healthcare systems facilitate diffusion of innovation while enabling rigorous evaluation of effects on patient outcomes. The VHA's randomized rollout of VD-HCBS to veterans at risk of nursing home placement is an example of how to achieve these goals simultaneously. PEPReC's experience designing an evaluation with researchers and operations stakeholders may serve as a framework for others seeking to develop rapid, rigorous, large-scale evaluations of delivery system innovations targeted to older adults.",2017,The VHA's randomized rollout of VD-HCBS to veterans at risk of nursing home placement is an example of how to achieve these goals simultaneously.,"['older veterans with functional limitations who are eligible for VD-HCBS', 'From March 2017 through December 2019, up to 77 Veterans Affairs Medical Centers']","['Veteran-Directed Home- and Community-Based Services (VD-HCBS) program', 'VD-HCBS']",[],"[{'cui': 'C0677546', 'cui_str': 'Old episode (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0042610', 'cui_str': 'Veterans'}, {'cui': 'C0205245', 'cui_str': 'Functional (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0449295', 'cui_str': 'Limitation (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0565990', 'cui_str': 'Medical center (environment)'}]","[{'cui': 'C0042610', 'cui_str': 'Veterans'}, {'cui': 'C0439851', 'cui_str': 'Direct (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0442519', 'cui_str': 'Domestic (environment)'}, {'cui': 'C0009462', 'cui_str': 'Community'}, {'cui': 'C0178499', 'cui_str': 'Base'}, {'cui': 'C2728259', 'cui_str': 'Program'}]",[],,0.0207107,The VHA's randomized rollout of VD-HCBS to veterans at risk of nursing home placement is an example of how to achieve these goals simultaneously.,"[{'ForeName': 'Melissa M', 'Initials': 'MM', 'LastName': 'Garrido', 'Affiliation': 'Partnered Evidence-Based Policy Resource Center, Veterans Affairs Boston Healthcare System, Boston, Massachusetts.'}, {'ForeName': 'Richard M', 'Initials': 'RM', 'LastName': 'Allman', 'Affiliation': 'Geriatrics and Extended Care Services, Office of Patient Care Services, Veterans Health Administration, Washington, District of Columbia.'}, {'ForeName': 'Steven D', 'Initials': 'SD', 'LastName': 'Pizer', 'Affiliation': 'Partnered Evidence-Based Policy Resource Center, Veterans Affairs Boston Healthcare System, Boston, Massachusetts.'}, {'ForeName': 'James L', 'Initials': 'JL', 'LastName': 'Rudolph', 'Affiliation': 'Center of Innovation for Long Term Services and Supports, Providence Veterans Affairs Medical Center, Providence, Rhode Island.'}, {'ForeName': 'Kali S', 'Initials': 'KS', 'LastName': 'Thomas', 'Affiliation': 'Center of Innovation for Long Term Services and Supports, Providence Veterans Affairs Medical Center, Providence, Rhode Island.'}, {'ForeName': 'Nina R', 'Initials': 'NR', 'LastName': 'Sperber', 'Affiliation': 'Center for Health Services Research in Primary Care, Health Services Research and Development Service, Durham, North Carolina.'}, {'ForeName': 'Courtney H', 'Initials': 'CH', 'LastName': 'Van Houtven', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Population Health Sciences, School of Medicine, Duke University, Durham, North Carolina.'}, {'ForeName': 'Austin B', 'Initials': 'AB', 'LastName': 'Frakt', 'Affiliation': 'Partnered Evidence-Based Policy Resource Center, Veterans Affairs Boston Healthcare System, Boston, Massachusetts.'}]",Journal of the American Geriatrics Society,['10.1111/jgs.15053']
1353,27194545,Impact of Telephone-Based Care Coordination on Use of Cessation Medications Posthospital Discharge: A Randomized Controlled Trial.,"Introduction
Smokers benefit from ongoing cessation support upon leaving the hospital and returning to their home environment. This study examined the impact of telephone-delivered care coordination on utilization of and adherence to cessation pharmacotherapy after hospital discharge.
Methods
Inpatient smokers (n = 606) were randomized to receive counseling with care coordination (CCC) or counseling alone (C) for smoking cessation. Both groups received written materials and telephone-based cessation counseling during hospitalization and postdischarge. CCC recipients received help in selecting, obtaining, and refilling affordable pharmacotherapy prescriptions during and after hospitalization. Study outcomes included self-reported utilization, duration of use, and type of medication during the 3 months postdischarge.
Results
Of the 487 (80%) of participants completing 3-month follow-up, 211 (43.3%) reported using cessation pharmacotherapy postdischarge; this did not differ by study arm (CCC: 44.7%, C: 42.0%, p = .55). Use of pharmacotherapy postdischarge was associated with smoking at least 20 cigarettes/day at baseline (odds ratio [OR]: 1.48; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.00-2.19) and receipt of pharmacotherapy during hospitalization (OR: 4.00; 95% CI: 2.39-6.89). Smokers with Medicaid (OR: 2.29; 95% CI: 1.32-4.02) or other insurance (OR: 1.69; 95% CI: 1.01-2.86) were more likely to use pharmacotherapy postdischarge than those with no health care coverage. Less than one in four (23.8% of CCC; 22.2% of C) continued pharmacotherapy beyond 4 weeks.
Conclusions
Supplemental care coordination did not improve use of postdischarge pharmacotherapy beyond that of inpatient treatment and behavioral counseling. Insurance coverage and use of medications during the hospitalization are associated with higher use of evidence-based treatment postdischarge.
Implications
Many hospitalized smokers do not receive the benefits of cessation pharmacotherapy postdischarge and telephone quitline programs often fail to help smokers procure pharmacotherapy. Thus, effective strategies are needed to improve utilization and adherence to evidence-based cessation therapies when smokers leave the hospital. We found that use of postdischarge pharmacotherapy was strongly associated with receipt of pharmacotherapy during the hospitalization and with the availability of insurance to cover the costs of treatment. Additional efforts to coordinate pharmacotherapy services did not improve either utilization or adherence to therapy.",2017,"Insurance coverage and use of medications during the hospitalization are associated with higher use of evidence-based treatment postdischarge.

1354,32408817,Comparative Significance of Invasive Measures of Microvascular Injury in Acute Myocardial Infarction.,"BACKGROUND
The resistive reserve ratio (RRR) expresses the ratio between basal and hyperemic microvascular resistance. RRR measures the vasodilatory capacity of the microcirculation. We compared RRR, index of microcirculatory resistance (IMR), and coronary flow reserve (CFR) for predicting microvascular obstruction (MVO), myocardial hemorrhage, infarct size, and clinical outcomes, after ST-segment-elevation myocardial infarction.
METHODS
In the T-TIME trial (Trial of Low-Dose Adjunctive Alteplase During Primary PCI), 440 patients with acute ST-segment-elevation myocardial infarction from 11 UK hospitals were prospectively enrolled. In a subset of 144 patients, IMR, CFR, and RRR were measured post-primary percutaneous coronary intervention. MVO extent (% left ventricular mass) was determined by cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging at 2 to 7 days. Infarct size was determined at 3 months. One-year major adverse cardiac events, heart failure hospitalizations, and all-cause death/heart failure hospitalizations were assessed.
RESULTS
In these 144 patients (mean age, 59±11 years, 80% male), median IMR was 29.5 (interquartile range: 17.0-55.0), CFR was 1.4 (1.1-2.0), and RRR was 1.7 (1.3-2.3). MVO occurred in 41% of patients. IMR>40 was multivariably associated with more MVO (coefficient, 0.53 [95% CI, 0.05-1.02]; P =0.031), myocardial hemorrhage presence (odds ratio [OR], 3.20 [95% CI, 1.25-8.24]; P =0.016), and infarct size (coefficient, 5.05 [95% CI, 0.84-9.26]; P =0.019), independently of CFR≤2.0, RRR≤1.7, myocardial perfusion grade≤1, and Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction frame count. RRR was multivariably associated with MVO extent (coefficient, -0.60 [95% CI, -0.97 to -0.23]; P =0.002), myocardial hemorrhage presence (OR, 0.34 [95% CI, 0.15-0.75]; P =0.008), and infarct size (coefficient, -3.41 [95% CI, -6.76 to -0.06]; P =0.046). IMR>40 was associated with heart failure hospitalization (OR, 5.34 [95% CI, 1.80-15.81] P =0.002), major adverse cardiac events (OR, 4.46 [95% CI, 1.70-11.70] P =0.002), and all-cause death/ heart failure hospitalization (OR, 4.08 [95% CI, 1.55-10.79] P =0.005). RRR was associated with heart failure hospitalization (OR, 0.44 [95% CI, 0.19-0.99] P =0.047). CFR was not associated with infarct characteristics or clinical outcomes.
CONCLUSIONS
In acute ST-segment-elevationl infarction, IMR and RRR, but not CFR, were associated with MVO, myocardial hemorrhage, infarct size, and clinical outcomes.

1355,30562138,Embodied Precision: Intranasal Oxytocin Modulates Multisensory Integration.,"Multisensory integration processes are fundamental to our sense of self as embodied beings. Bodily illusions, such as the rubber hand illusion (RHI) and the size-weight illusion (SWI), allow us to investigate how the brain resolves conflicting multisensory evidence during perceptual inference in relation to different facets of body representation. In the RHI, synchronous tactile stimulation of a participant's hidden hand and a visible rubber hand creates illusory body ownership; in the SWI, the perceived size of the body can modulate the estimated weight of external objects. According to Bayesian models, such illusions arise as an attempt to explain the causes of multisensory perception and may reflect the attenuation of somatosensory precision, which is required to resolve perceptual hypotheses about conflicting multisensory input. Recent hypotheses propose that the precision of sensorimotor representations is determined by modulators of synaptic gain, like dopamine, acetylcholine, and oxytocin. However, these neuromodulatory hypotheses have not been tested in the context of embodied multisensory integration. The present, double-blind, placebo-controlled, crossover study ( n = 41 healthy volunteers) aimed to investigate the effect of intranasal oxytocin (IN-OT) on multisensory integration processes, tested by means of the RHI and the SWI. Results showed that IN-OT enhanced the subjective feeling of ownership in the RHI, only when synchronous tactile stimulation was involved. Furthermore, IN-OT increased an embodied version of the SWI (quantified as estimation error during a weight estimation task). These findings suggest that oxytocin might modulate processes of visuotactile multisensory integration by increasing the precision of top-down signals against bottom-up sensory input.",2019,"Furthermore, IN-OT increased an embodied version of the SWI (quantified as estimation error during a weight estimation task).",['41 healthy volunteers'],"['intranasal oxytocin (IN-OT', 'oxytocin', 'Intranasal Oxytocin', 'placebo']","['Embodied Precision', 'Bodily illusions, such as the rubber hand illusion (RHI) and the size-weight illusion (SWI', 'visuotactile multisensory integration', 'subjective feeling of ownership']","[{'cui': 'C1708335', 'cui_str': 'Healthy Participants'}]","[{'cui': 'C0442118', 'cui_str': 'Intranasal approach (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0030095', 'cui_str': 'Oxytocin'}, {'cui': 'C1696465', 'cui_str': 'placebo'}]","[{'cui': 'C0020903', 'cui_str': 'Illusions'}, {'cui': 'C0035918', 'cui_str': 'Natural Rubber'}, {'cui': 'C0018563', 'cui_str': 'Hand'}, {'cui': 'C0456389', 'cui_str': 'Size (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C1305866', 'cui_str': 'Weighing patient (procedure)'}, {'cui': 'C0439655', 'cui_str': 'Subjective observation'}, {'cui': 'C1527305', 'cui_str': 'Feelings'}, {'cui': 'C0029981', 'cui_str': 'Ownership'}]",41.0,0.0402953,"Furthermore, IN-OT increased an embodied version of the SWI (quantified as estimation error during a weight estimation task).","[{'ForeName': 'Laura', 'Initials': 'L', 'LastName': 'Crucianelli', 'Affiliation': 'University College London.'}, {'ForeName': 'Yannis', 'Initials': 'Y', 'LastName': 'Paloyelis', 'Affiliation': ""King's College London.""}, {'ForeName': 'Lucia', 'Initials': 'L', 'LastName': 'Ricciardi', 'Affiliation': ""St. George's University of London.""}, {'ForeName': 'Paul M', 'Initials': 'PM', 'LastName': 'Jenkinson', 'Affiliation': 'University of Hertfordshire.'}, {'ForeName': 'Aikaterini', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Fotopoulou', 'Affiliation': 'University College London.'}]",Journal of cognitive neuroscience,['10.1162/jocn_a_01366']

Sixty patients, American Society of Anesthesiologists I-II, between the ages of 18 and 65 years undergoing PCNL were randomized into three groups. Group peritubal infiltration (Pi, n = 20) received infiltration along the nephrostomy tube 20 ml 0.25% bupivacaine, in 6 and 12 o'clock position. Group paravertebral block (Pv, n = 20) received single-shot paravertebral block with 20 ml 0.25% bupivacaine at the level of T8-T9. Group control (C, n = 20): no intervention is performed. Postoperative opioid consumption and pain scores, opioid-related side effects, and additional analgesic requirement were recorded. The fentanyl consumption in Group Pv was significantly lower in comparison to Group C in all time intervals (p < 0.05). In the comparison of Group Pv and Group Pi, fentanyl consumptions in the postoperative 0-4th hours (100.00 ± 50.65 and 145.00 ± 61.55, respectively), 4-8th hours (50.00 ± 64.88 and 121.25 ± 56.93 respectively), and in the total of 24 h (197.50 ± 133.74 and 368.75 ± 116.66 respectively) were significantly lower in Group Pv (p < 0.05). The dynamic VAS scores analyzed at the 1st and 2nd hours were significantly lower in Group Pv than Group Pi (p < 0.05). Eight patients in Group C, two patients in Group Pi and 1 patient in Group Pv required additional analgesics and the difference was significant (p < 0.05).

Methods: Sixty children with diplegia were allocated to group I (rSWT, n = 20), group II (SOM, n = 20), or group III (rSWT + SOM, n = 20). All groups received a physical training program 3 times/week for 3 months. Assessments were completed before and immediately after the intervention and included the Hoffman reflex/Myogenic response ratio of the soleus muscle (H/M ratio), balance, and gait. Results: At a significance criterion adjusted to p ˂ .006, there were no between-group differences in balance or gait ( p > .006). The rSWT + SOM group had a greater improvement of H/M ratio compared to rSWT alone ( p = .001) but not to SOM alone ( p = .04). Within-group analysis demonstrated significant improvement of all variables for rSWT + SOM ( p ˂ .006). The H/M ratio and knee midstance angle exhibited clinically meaningful improvement for rSWT alone ( p ˂ .006). No significant changes were observed in any variable for SOM alone ( p > .006).

1358,32408862,Comparison of C-MAC D-blade videolaryngoscope and McCoy laryngoscope efficacy for nasotracheal intubation in simulated cervical spinal injury: a prospective randomized comparative study.,"BACKGROUND
Immobilization with cervical spine worsens endotracheal intubation condition. Though various intubation devices have been demonstrated to perform well in oral endotracheal intubation, limited information is available concerning nasotracheal intubation (NTI) in patients with cervical spine immobilization. The present study compared the performance of the C-MAC D-Blade videolaryngoscope with the McCoy laryngoscope for NTI in patients with simulated cervical spine injuries.
METHODS
This was a prospective, randomized, controlled, study done in a tertiary hospital. Ninety-five patients requiring NTI were included in data analysis: McCoy group (group M, n = 47) or C-MAC D-Blade videolaryngoscope group (group C, n = 48). A Philadelphia neck collar was applied before anesthetic induction to immobilize the cervical spine. Single experienced anesthesiologist performed NTI. The primary outcome was duration of intubation divided by three steps: nose to oropharynx; oropharynx into glottic inlet; and glottic inlet to trachea. Secondary outcomes included glottic view as percentage of glottis opening (POGO) score and Cormack-Lehance (CL) grade, modified nasal intubation-difficulty scale (NIDS) rating, hemodynamic changes before and after intubation, and complications.
RESULTS
Total intubation duration was significantly shorter in group C (39.5 ± 11.4 s) compared to group M (48.1 ± 13.9 s). Group C required significantly less time for glottic visualization and endotracheal tube placement in the trachea. More patients in group C had CL grade I and higher POGO scores (P < 0.001, for both measures). No difficulty in NTI (modified NIDS = 0) was more in group C than group M. Hemodynamic changes and incidence of complications were comparable between groups.
CONCLUSION
The C-MAC D-Blade videolaryngoscope is an effective tool for NTI in a simulated difficult airway, which improves glottic visualization and shortens intubation time relative to those with McCoy laryngoscope.

1359,21593352,Glutamine reduces postprandial glycemia and augments the glucagon-like peptide-1 response in type 2 diabetes patients.,"Impaired glucagon-like peptide (GLP-1) secretion or response may contribute to ineffective insulin release in type 2 diabetes. The conditionally essential amino acid glutamine stimulates GLP-1 secretion in vitro and in vivo. In a randomized, crossover study, we evaluated the effect of oral glutamine, with or without sitagliptin (SIT), on postprandial glycemia and GLP-1 concentration in 15 type 2 diabetes patients (glycated hemoglobin 6.5 ± 0.6%). Participants ingested a low-fat meal (5% fat) after receiving either water (control), 30 g l-glutamine (Gln-30), 15 g L-glutamine (Gln-15), 100 mg SIT, or 100 mg SIT and 15 g L-glutamine (SIT+Gln-15). Studies were conducted 1-2 wk apart. Blood was collected at baseline and postprandially for 180 min for measurement of circulating glucose, insulin, C-peptide, glucagon, and total and active GLP-1. Gln-30 and SIT+Gln-15 reduced the early (t = 0-60 min) postprandial glycemic response compared with control. All Gln treatments enhanced the postprandial insulin response from t = 60-180 min but had no effect on the C-peptide response compared with control. The postprandial glucagon concentration was increased by Gln-30 and Gln-15 compared with control, but the insulin:glucagon ratio was not affected by any treatment. In contrast to Gln-30, which tended to increase the total GLP-1 AUC, SIT tended to decrease the total GLP-1 AUC relative to control (both P = 0.03).

1360,30558978,Neurocognition as a predictor of transition to psychotic disorder and functional outcomes in ultra-high risk participants: Findings from the NEURAPRO randomized clinical trial.,"BACKGROUND
Neurocognitive impairments experienced by individuals at ultra-high risk (UHR) for psychosis are potential predictors of outcome within this population, however there is inconsistency regarding the specific neurocognitive domains implicated. This study aimed to examine whether baseline neurocognition predicted transition to psychosis, or functional outcomes, at medium-term (mean = 3.4 years) follow-up, while controlling for other clinical/treatment variables associated with transition to psychosis.
METHOD
Analysis of data collected as part of a multi-centre RCT of omega-3 fatty acids and cognitive-behavioural case management (NEURAPRO) for UHR individuals was conducted on the 294 participants (134 males, 160 females) who completed neurocognitive assessment (Brief Assessment of Cognition for Schizophrenia) at baseline. Transition to psychosis was determined using the Comprehensive Assessment of At-Risk Mental States (CAARMS), and functioning was measured with the Global Functioning: Social and Role Scales.
RESULTS
Mean baseline z-scores indicated that UHR participants performed a quarter to half a standard deviation below normative means in all domains (range mean z = -0.24 to -0.47), except for executive functioning (mean z = 0.16). After adjusting for covariates, poorer Executive (p = .010) and Motor (p = .030) functions were predictive of transition to psychosis. Processing Speed and Verbal Fluency were significant predictors of role functioning at 12 months (p = .004), and social functioning at medium-term follow-up (p = .015), respectively.
CONCLUSIONS
Neurocognitive abilities are independent predictors of both transition to psychosis and functional outcomes within the UHR population. Further research is needed to determine the best combination of risk variables in UHR individuals for prediction of psychosis transition, functioning and other psychopathology outcomes.",2019,"After adjusting for covariates, poorer Executive (p = .010) and Motor (p = .030) functions were predictive of transition to psychosis.","['ultra-high risk participants', 'Analysis of data collected as part of a multi-centre RCT of omega-3 fatty acids and cognitive-behavioural case management (NEURAPRO) for UHR individuals was conducted on the 294 participants (134 males, 160 females) who completed neurocognitive assessment (Brief Assessment of Cognition for Schizophrenia) at baseline']",[],"['Processing Speed and Verbal Fluency', 'z-scores', 'Comprehensive Assessment of At-Risk Mental States (CAARMS), and functioning', 'social functioning', 'executive functioning']","[{'cui': 'C4319571', 'cui_str': 'High risk (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C1524024', 'cui_str': 'analysis'}, {'cui': 'C1292711', 'cui_str': 'Part of (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C3266262', 'cui_str': 'Multi'}, {'cui': 'C0205099', 'cui_str': 'Central (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0015689', 'cui_str': 'Omega-3 Fatty Acids'}, {'cui': 'C0085971', 'cui_str': 'Case Management'}, {'cui': 'C0237401', 'cui_str': 'Individual (person)'}, {'cui': 'C0004927', 'cui_str': 'Behavior'}, {'cui': 'C4517565', 'cui_str': 'One hundred and thirty-four'}, {'cui': 'C0086582', 'cui_str': 'Males'}, {'cui': 'C4319554', 'cui_str': '160'}, {'cui': 'C0086287', 'cui_str': 'Females'}, {'cui': 'C0205197', 'cui_str': 'Complete (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C1261322', 'cui_str': 'Clinical evaluation'}, {'cui': 'C1879313', 'cui_str': 'Brief (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0009240', 'cui_str': 'Cognitive Function'}, {'cui': 'C0036341', 'cui_str': 'Schizophrenic Disorders'}]",[],"[{'cui': 'C0582591', 'cui_str': 'Processing speed (observable entity)'}, {'cui': 'C0439824', 'cui_str': 'Verbal (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0871421', 'cui_str': 'Z-score'}, {'cui': 'C4305073', 'cui_str': 'Comprehensive Assessment of At-risk Mental States (assessment scale)'}, {'cui': 'C0031843', 'cui_str': 'function'}]",294.0,0.10395,"After adjusting for covariates, poorer Executive (p = .010) and Motor (p = .030) functions were predictive of transition to psychosis.","[{'ForeName': 'Luke K', 'Initials': 'LK', 'LastName': 'Bolt', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Psychology and Counselling, La Trobe University, Bundoora, Australia.'}, {'ForeName': 'G Paul', 'Initials': 'GP', 'LastName': 'Amminger', 'Affiliation': 'Orygen, The National Centre of Excellence in Youth Mental Health, Parkville, Australia; The Centre for Youth Mental Health, The University of Melbourne, Melbourne, Australia; Department of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, Medical University Vienna, Vienna, Austria.

1361,31335572,"A Randomized, Double-blind, Active-controlled Phase III Trial of a Cell Culture-derived Quadrivalent Inactivated Influenza Vaccine in Healthy South Korean Children and Adolescents 6 Months to 18 Years of Age.","BACKGROUND
Cell culture-derived influenza vaccines have several important advantages over egg-based influenza vaccines. The quadrivalent influenza vaccine may offer broader protection against seasonal influenza than trivalent influenza vaccine by containing 1 more B strain. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the immunogenicity and safety of NBP607-QIV, a novel cell culture-derived inactivated quadrivalent influenza vaccine (cIIV4), in children and adolescents.
METHODS
This phase III, randomized, double-blind, multicenter trial in children/adolescents (6 mo to 18 yr) was conducted in South Korea during 2014-2015 season. Subjects were randomized 4:1 to receive either NBP607-QIV or control inactivated trivalent influenza vaccine. Hemagglutination inhibition antibody titers were assessed in prevaccination and 28 days postvaccination sera. Safety data were collected for up to 6 months postvaccination.
RESULTS
A total of 454 participants completed the study. Three-hundred sixty-six subjects received cIIV4 and 88 subjects received inactivated trivalent influenza vaccine. Overall, NBP607-QIV met the immunogenicity criteria of Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use for each of the 4 strains. Between the NBP607-QIV and control groups, immunogenicity endpoints were comparable. Participants younger than 3 years of age had lower immunologic responses to 2 influenza B strains in both NBP607-QIV and control group. No deaths, vaccine-related serious adverse events (AEs) or withdrawals because of AEs were reported. The solicited AEs reported were generally of mild intensity.
CONCLUSIONS
NBP607-QIV, a novel cIIV4, showed good immunogenicity to all 4 influenza strains and had tolerable safety profiles in children and adolescents. Moreover, NBP607-QIV was more immunogenic against influenza B compared with the control, an egg-based subunit vaccine.",2019,Participants younger than 3 years of age had lower immunologic responses to 2 influenza B strains in both NBP607-QIV and control group.,"['children/adolescents (6 mo to 18 yr) was conducted in South Korea during 2014-2015 season', '454 participants completed the study', 'Three-hundred sixty-six subjects received cIIV4 and 88 subjects received', 'Participants younger than 3 years of age had lower immunologic responses to 2 influenza B strains in both NBP607-QIV and control group', 'Healthy South Korean Children and Adolescents 6 Months to 18 Years of Age', 'children and adolescents']","['NBP607-QIV', 'inactivated trivalent influenza vaccine', 'NBP607-QIV, a novel cell culture-derived inactivated quadrivalent influenza vaccine (cIIV4', 'NBP607-QIV or control inactivated trivalent influenza vaccine', 'Cell Culture-derived Quadrivalent Inactivated Influenza Vaccine']","['No deaths, vaccine-related serious adverse events (AEs) or withdrawals because of AEs', 'immunogenicity and safety', 'Hemagglutination inhibition antibody titers', 'immunogenicity endpoints']","[{'cui': 'C0008059', 'cui_str': 'Child'}, {'cui': 'C0205653', 'cui_str': 'Adolescent'}, {'cui': 'C0004927', 'cui_str': 'Behavior'}, {'cui': 'C0022773', 'cui_str': 'South Korea'}, {'cui': 'C0036497', 'cui_str': 'Seasons'}, {'cui': 'C4517782', 'cui_str': '454 (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0205197', 'cui_str': 'Complete (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0557651', 'cui_str': 'Study (environment)'}, {'cui': 'C4319604', 'cui_str': '300'}, {'cui': 'C4517841', 'cui_str': 'Sixty-six'}, {'cui': 'C0332239', 'cui_str': 'Young (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0439234', 'cui_str': 'year (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0001792', 'cui_str': 'Elderly'}, {'cui': 'C0205251', 'cui_str': 'Low (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0205470', 'cui_str': 'Immunologic (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0021400', 'cui_str': 'Influenza, Human'}, {'cui': 'C0080194', 'cui_str': 'Strains'}, {'cui': 'C0009932', 'cui_str': 'Control Groups'}, {'cui': 'C1556095', 'cui_str': 'Koreans'}, {'cui': 'C0439231', 'cui_str': 'month (qualifier value)'}]","[{'cui': 'C0770694'}, {'cui': 'C0007585', 'cui_str': 'Cell Culture Techniques'}, {'cui': 'C4318638', 'cui_str': 'Quadrivalent Influenza Vaccine'}, {'cui': 'C2587213', 'cui_str': 'Controlled (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0021403', 'cui_str': 'Influenza Vaccines'}]","[{'cui': 'C0011065', 'cui_str': 'Death'}, {'cui': 'C0042210', 'cui_str': 'Vaccines'}, {'cui': 'C0445223', 'cui_str': 'Related (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C0877248', 'cui_str': 'Adverse event'}, {'cui': 'C0036043', 'cui_str': 'Safety'}, {'cui': 'C0018904', 'cui_str': 'Hemagglutination Inhibition Tests'}, {'cui': 'C1287242', 'cui_str': 'Finding of antibody titer (finding)'}]",366.0,0.337309,Participants younger than 3 years of age had lower immunologic responses to 2 influenza B strains in both NBP607-QIV and control group.,"[{'ForeName': 'Byung Wook', 'Initials': 'BW', 'LastName': 'Eun', 'Affiliation': 'From the Department of Pediatrics, Eulji University Eulji General Hospital, Seoul, Republic of Korea.'}, {'ForeName': 'Taek Jin', 'Initials': 'TJ', 'LastName': 'Lee', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Pediatrics, CHA Bundang Medical Center, CHA University, Seongnam, Republic of Korea.'}, {'ForeName': 'Jina', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Lee', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Pediatrics, Asan Medical Center, University of Ulsan College of Medicine.'}, {'ForeName': 'Ki Hwan', 'Initials': 'KH', 'LastName': 'Kim', 'Affiliation': ""Department of Pediatrics, Severance Children's Hospital, Yonsei University College of Medicine.""}, {'ForeName': 'Dong Ho', 'Initials': 'DH', 'LastName': 'Kim', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Pediatrics, Korea Cancer Center Hospital, Seoul, Republic of Korea.'}, {'ForeName': 'Dae Sun', 'Initials': 'DS', 'LastName': 'Jo', 'Affiliation': ""Department of Pediatrics, Chonbuk National University Children's Hospital, Chonbuk National University Medical School, Jeonju, Republic of Korea.""}, {'ForeName': 'Sun Hee', 'Initials': 'SH', 'LastName': 'Shin', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Pediatrics, Dongtan Sacred Heart Hospital.'}, {'ForeName': 'Hun', 'Initials': 'H', 'LastName': 'Kim', 'Affiliation': 'SK Bioscience, Seongnam.'}, {'ForeName': 'Kyung-Ho', 'Initials': 'KH', 'LastName': 'Kim', 'Affiliation': 'SK Bioscience, Seongnam.'}, {'ForeName': 'Yun-Kyung', 'Initials': 'YK', 'LastName': 'Kim', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Pediatrics, Korea University Ansan Hospital, Gyeonggi-do, Republic of Korea.'}]",The Pediatric infectious disease journal,['10.1097/INF.0000000000002406']
1362,30412909,Feasibility and acceptability of Indigenous Counselling and Nicotine (ICAN) QUIT in Pregnancy multicomponent implementation intervention and study design for Australian Indigenous pregnant women: A pilot cluster randomised step-wedge trial.,"BACKGROUND
Many health providers (HPs) lack knowledge, confidence, optimism and skills in addressing smoking with pregnant women. This study aimed to explore the feasibility and acceptability of a) a co-designed multi-component intervention for HPs at Aboriginal Medical Services (AMSs) in culturally-targeted pregnancy-specific smoking cessation care and b) the study design.
METHODS
Using a randomised step-wedge cluster design, the Indigenous Counselling And Nicotine (ICAN) QUIT in Pregnancy Trial was evaluated across six AMSs in three Australian states. HPs were provided educational resource packages including live interactive webinars, treatment manuals, patient resources, carbon monoxide (CO) meters, and oral Nicotine Replacement Therapy (NRT). Feasibility was assessed through recruitment and retention rates of both pregnant women (12-weeks) and HPs (end of study) as well as the potential to improve women's quit rates. Qualitative interviews with staff post-trial explored acceptability of the intervention and study, based on capability, opportunity and motivation from the Behaviour Change Wheel.
RESULTS
Pregnant women (n = 22; 47% (95% CI: 32%, 63%) eligible) and HPs (n = 50; 54% (95% CI: 44%, 64%) eligible) were recruited over 6 months with retention rates of 77% (95% CI: 57%, 90%) and 40% (95% CI: 28%, 54%) respectively. Self-reported 12-week 7-day point-prevalence abstinence was 13.6% (n = 3) and validated abstinent with CO readings ≤6 ppm. Staff interviewed regarding intervention implementation highlighted the importance of provision and use of resources, including training materials, patient resources, CO meters and oral NRT. Resources helped increase capability and opportunity, restructure the environment, and provided social comparison and modelling. Staff were motivated by greater engagement with pregnant women and seeing the women's reductions in CO readings. Having the intervention at the AMSs improved organisational capacity to engage with pregnant women. Staff reported changes to their routine practice that were potentially sustainable. Recommendations for improvement to the implementation of the intervention and research included reducing training length and the tasks related to conducting the study.
CONCLUSION
ICAN QUIT in Pregnancy was a pilot study with the ability to enrol Indigenous women. It was feasible to implement and acceptable to most staff of the AMSs in three states, with modifications recommended. Smoking in pregnancy is a key challenge for Indigenous health. The intervention needs to be evaluated through a methodologically rigorous fully-powered study to determine the efficacy of outcomes for women.

1363,30315625,Nifedipine alone or combined with sildenafil citrate for management of threatened preterm labour: a randomised trial.,"OBJECTIVE
To study the tocolytic action of nifedipine combined with sildenafil citrate (SC) and if the combination is superior to nifedipine alone in inhibiting threatened preterm labour (PTL).
DESIGN
Prospective randomised study.
SETTING
An Egyptian university hospital.
POPULATION
Women with threatened PTL who received either nifedipine with SC or nifedipine alone.
METHODS
Patients were randomly allocated to receive either (1) nifedipine 20 mg orally (stat dose), followed by 10 mg orally every 6-8 hours at the same time as vaginal administration of SC (25 mg at 8-hourly intervals) or (2) nifedipine alone. Medications were continued for 48-72 hours.
MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES
The percentage of women who remained undelivered during hospitalisation.
RESULTS
From January 2015 to November 2016, 239 women were randomised. The baseline characteristics of participants were similar. Nifedipine combined with SC was associated with more women remaining undelivered (81.8 versus 68.6%; P = 0.018) during hospitalisation. Regarding secondary outcomes, the addition of SC was also associated with fewer deliveries within 7 days of admission (9.1 versus 20.3%; P = 0.014), prolonged latency (29 versus 7 days; P = 0.002), fewer admissions to neonatal intensive care units (31.4 versus 44.1%; P = 0.043), fewer very preterm deliveries (from 28 to <32 weeks, 20.7 versus 38.1%; P = 0.043), and increased neonatal birthweight (1900 versus 1500 g; P = 0.018).
CONCLUSIONS
Vaginal SC combined with nifedipine is an effective option for tocolytic therapy during threatened PTL.

1364,30272231,Pharmacokinetics of dolutegravir with and without darunavir/cobicistat in healthy volunteers.,"Background
Dolutegravir combined with darunavir/cobicistat is a promising NRTI-sparing and/or salvage strategy for the treatment of HIV-1 infection.
Methods
This Phase I, open-label, 57 day, crossover, pharmacokinetic (PK) study, enrolled healthy volunteers aged 18-65 years, who were randomized to one of two groups. Group 1 received dolutegravir (50 mg) once daily for 14 days followed by a 7 day washout, then a 14 day dolutegravir/darunavir/cobicistat (DTG/DRV/COBI) once-daily co-administration period followed by a 7 day washout and finally a 14 day period of darunavir/cobicistat (800/150 mg) once daily. Group 2 followed the same sequence starting with darunavir/cobicistat and concluding with dolutegravir. Each group underwent intensive PK sampling over 24 h on day 14 of each drug period and DTG/DRV/COBI concentrations were measured using validated LC-MS/MS methods.
Results
Twenty participants completed all PK phases. Thirteen were female and median age and BMI were 33.5 years and 27 kg/m2. Dolutegravir geometric mean ratios (GMR, DTG/DRV/COBI versus dolutegravir alone) and 90% CI for Cmax, AUC0-24 and C24 were 1.01 (0.92-1.11), 0.95 (0.87-1.04) and 0.9 (0.8-1.0), respectively. Darunavir GMR (DRV/COBI/DTG versus darunavir/cobicistat alone) and 90% CI for Cmax, AUC0-24 and C24 were 0.90 (0.83-0.98), 0.93 (0.86-1.00) and 0.93 (0.78-1.11), respectively. No grade 3 or 4 adverse events or laboratory abnormalities were observed.
Conclusions
Concentrations of dolutegravir and darunavir, when boosted with cobicistat, decreased by <10% during co-administration, suggesting this combination can be prescribed safely in the treatment of HIV-1, with no adjustment to current guideline-recommended dosages.",2019,"No grade 3 or 4 adverse events or laboratory abnormalities were observed.

1365,30256671,Effect of intensive blood pressure lowering on cardiovascular outcomes based on cardiovascular risk: A secondary analysis of the SPRINT trial.,"BACKGROUND
It is not clear whether risk stratification can help choose the most favourable systolic blood pressure target for primary prevention of cardiovascular events.
DESIGN
A secondary analysis of Systolic Blood Pressure Intervention Trial (SPRINT).
METHODS
To perform a secondary analysis, we obtained the data from SPRINT from the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute data repository centre. In SPRINT, an open-label trial, participants without diabetes with systolic blood pressure of ≥130 mmHg were randomly assigned to intensive and standard treatment groups with systolic blood pressure targets of <120 and <140 mmHg, respectively. The primary composite outcome was myocardial infarction and other acute coronary syndromes, stroke, heart failure, or death from cardiovascular causes. Here, we have analysed data from participants without cardiovascular disease and chronic kidney disease aged under 75 years categorised based on the baseline 10-year Framingham risk score (<10% (low risk); ≥10% and <15% (intermediate risk); ≥15% (high risk)).
RESULTS
A total of 4298 patients were included in the analysis. With intensive treatment, there was a significant reduction in the primary outcome events in patients at high risk (0.86% per year vs. 1.81% per year; hazard ratio (HR) 0.51; 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.31 to 0.85; P = 0.010), and at intermediate risk (0.60% per year vs. 1.46% per year; HR 0.37; 95% CI 0.17 to 0.82; P = 0.014) but not for those at low risk (0.75% per year vs. 0.57% per year; HR 1.14; 95% CI 0.55 to 2.38; P = 0.714).

1366,32409106,Safety Analysis of Five Randomized Controlled Studies of Daratumumab in Patients With Multiple Myeloma.,"BACKGROUND
Multiple studies have demonstrated the efficacy and safety of daratumumab for relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma (MM) and primary treatment for transplant-eligible and -ineligible patients.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
We conducted an integrated safety analysis to characterize the frequency, severity, natural history, and outcomes of adverse events (AEs) with daratumumab versus comparators. Data were pooled from 5 completed phase III randomized controlled studies that had included 1798 daratumumab-treated and 1797 comparator-treated patients with MM as a first line in both transplant-eligible and transplant-ineligible patients and for relapsed/refractory disease. Safety analyses included reporting of AEs using crude and exposure-adjusted incidence rates.
RESULTS
The median follow-up duration was 16.84 months (range, 7.4-28 months) for both daratumumab-treated and comparator-treated patients. Discontinuation for any reason occurred less often with daratumumab (22% vs. 33.9%), although discontinuation because of AEs occurred at similar rates (25% vs. 26%) as did deaths owing to AEs (2.25% vs. 1.84%). When adjusted for exposure, neutropenia, lymphopenia, diarrhea, fatigue, dyspnea, pneumonia, and hypertension were the only common grade 3/4 AEs reported more often with daratumumab than with the comparators. The prevalence of common grade 3/4 AEs with daratumumab were < 7% apart from neutropenia, lymphopenia, and pneumonia (45.9% vs. 32.3%, 13% vs. 7.5%, and 10.6% vs. 7.2%, respectively). Grade 3/4 daratumumab infusion-related reactions happened in 3.8% of patients. The majority of infusion-related reactions occurred after the first infusion.

1367,30365464,Everolimus and Long-term Clinical Outcomes in Kidney Transplant Recipients: A Registry-based 10-year Follow-up of 5 Randomized Trials.,"BACKGROUND
Data regarding the long-term efficacy of everolimus-based immunosuppression for kidney transplantation are lacking. Existing randomized controlled trials are limited by short follow-up duration which limits capacity to assess impact on graft and patient survival.
METHODS
We linked individual trial participants to the Australian and New Zealand Dialysis and Transplant Registry. Using a 1-step meta-analysis approach, we investigated the 10-year risk of graft loss, mortality and graft function in 349 participants from 5 randomized trials of everolimus-based immunosuppression.
RESULTS
Two hundred forty-two patients randomized to everolimus and 107 control patients were followed for a median of 9 years (interquartile range, 7.1, 9.8 y). There were no significant differences in the risk of all-cause graft loss (adjusted hazard ratio [HR], 1.16; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.69-1.94), mortality (adjusted HR, 1.51; 95% CI, 0.78-2.93) and death-censored graft loss in everolimus versus control (adjusted HR, 1.00; 95% CI, 0.50-2.01).

1369,30366115,Ovarian Reserve and Assisted Reproductive Technique Outcomes After Laparoscopic Proximal Tubal Occlusion or Salpingectomy in Women with Hydrosalpinx Undergoing in Vitro Fertilization: A Randomized Controlled Trial.,"STUDY OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the outcomes of assisted reproductive technology (ART) after proximal tubal occlusion (PTO) or salpingectomy in patients with hydrosalpinx undergoing in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer (IVF-ET).
DESIGN
Randomized controlled trial (Canadian Task Force classification I).
SETTING
All India Institute of Medical Sciences, New Delhi, India.
PATIENTS
A total of 165 patients were randomized and subsequently allocated to a PTO group (n = 83) or a salpingectomy group (n = 82).
INTERVENTIONS
PTO and salpingectomy.
MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS
Following surgery, compared with the PTO group, the salpingectomy group showed significant decreases in the ovarian reserve parameters serum anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH; 3.7 ng/mL vs 2.6 ng/mL; p ˂ .001) and antral follicle count (AFC; 10.6 vs 8.6; p ˂ .001). The salpingectomy group also required a significantly higher dose of gonadotropins (3901 vs 3260; p ˂ .001) and more days of stimulation (11.3 vs 10.2; p ˂ .001) compared with the PTO group. The salpingectomy group had a significantly lower fertilization rate (0.74 vs 0.83; p ˂ .001) and a lower number of grade 1 embryos (4.1 vs 5.6; p = .02); however, there was no significant difference between the 2 groups with respect to rates of implantation (22.8% vs 23.7%; p = .87), clinical pregnancy (26.3% vs 33.7%, p = .25), live birth (27.5% vs 32.5%; p = .42), and miscarriage (4.7% vs 3.5%; p = .90) CONCLUSIONS: PTO is a superior to salpingectomy for the surgical management of patients with hydrosalpinx undergoing IVF-ET in terms of ovarian reserve.

1370,31654501,Alterations in retinal arteriolar microvascular structure associate with higher treatment burden in patients with diabetic macular oedema: results from a 12-month prospective clinical trial.,"PURPOSE
This study was based on data from a 12-month prospective clinical trial and aimed to examine changes in retinal microvascular structure in eyes treated with intravitreal aflibercept in combination with focal/grid laser photocoagulation for diabetic macular oedema (DME).
METHODS
We included 32 treatment naïve eyes of 22 patients with centre involving DME. The treatment algorithm comprised a loading phase of three monthly injections of aflibercept and focal/grid laser photocoagulation [baseline (BL)-month 3 (M3)] followed by a pro re nata (PRN) aflibercept phase until month 12 (M12). Eyes were divided into groups with and without need for PRN treatment after loading. Parameters of retinal microvascular structure were measured in 45° optic disc centred fundus images at BL, M3 and M12 using a semi-automated software (VAMPIRE®, Vessel Assessment and Measurement Platform for Images of the Retina, Universities of Dundee and Edinburgh, UK).
RESULTS
A significant decrease in retinal arteriolar calibre was demonstrated at both M3 (-11.2 μm, p = 0.005) and M12 (-11.5 μm, p = 0.04) as compared to BL in eyes that needed PRN treatment during follow-up. In contrast, arteriolar calibre remained unchanged in eyes without need for PRN treatment (M3: -1.6 μm, p = 0.79 and M12: -7.0 μm, p = 0.22). For retinal venules, vessel calibre decreased both in eyes with and without need for PRN therapy at M3 (-9.5 μm, p = 0.01 and -11.6 μm, p = 0.01) as well as at M12 (-15.6 μm, p = 0.001 and -11.0 μm, p = 0.04).

The present study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of action observation therapy (AOT) on apraxia of speech (AOS) in patients after stroke.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
Forty-two patients diagnosed with AOS after stroke were randomly divided into an experimental group (n = 21) and a control group (n = 21). Both groups received 30 min of conventional language therapy twice daily, 5 days a week for 4 weeks. The patients in the experimental group additionally received 20 min of AOT before 10 min language therapy each day. The speech function and aphasia severity of the 2 groups were assessed using the speech apraxia assessment method of the China Rehabilitation Research Center, Western Aphasia Battery (WAB), and the Boston Diagnostic Aphasia Examination before and after treatment.
RESULTS
AOS and WAB scores increased significantly after treatment in both groups (p < 0.05). AOS and WAB scores exhibited significant differences between the experimental group and the control group after training (p < 0.05). The response rate in the experimental group was significantly higher than that in the control group (p < 0.05).

1372,30528307,Effectiveness of a Pre-emptive Preoperative Belladonna and Opium Suppository on Postoperative Urgency and Pain After Ureteroscopy.,"PURPOSE
Postoperative ureteroscopy patients can develop bladder spasms, complaints of pain, and the urgent need to void during emergence from anesthesia. Discomfort leads to patient agitation, resulting in a risk to patient safety. The purpose of this study was to determine the effectiveness of a preemptive preoperative belladonna and opium (B + O) suppository on postoperative bladder comfort, narcotic requirements, and length of stay of ureteroscopy patients.
DESIGN
A prospective double-blind study was conducted.
METHODS
Fifty adult outpatients scheduled for ureteroscopy were assigned to routine care or a B + O suppository immediately after anesthesia induction. Urinary urgency and pain were assessed every 15 minutes.
FINDINGS
Urgency significantly decreased in the B+O group, with less than half reporting urgency at discharge.

1373,30414998,Barbed Suture versus Conventional Suture for Vaginal Cuff Closure in Total Laparoscopic Hysterectomy: Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial.,"STUDY OBJECTIVE
To determine the surgical time, suture time, presence of postoperative dyspareunia, and complications that occur after closing the vaginal cuff with a barbed suture compared with conventional suture.
DESIGN
A randomized, controlled clinical trial (Canadian Task Force classification I).
SETTING
Private gynecologic clinic in Medellin, Colombia.
PATIENTS
One hundred fifty women who underwent total laparoscopic hysterectomy for benign pathology.
INTERVENTIONS
The patients underwent total laparoscopic hysterectomy with intracorporeal closure of the vaginal cuff and were randomized to 2 groups, 1 using a barbed suture (V-Loc 90; Medtronic/Covidien, New Haven, CT) and 1 using polyglactin 910 (coated Vicryl suture; Ethicon/Johnson & Johnson, New Brunswick, NJ).
MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS
The total operative time, closing time of the vaginal vault, presence of complications in the cuff, and incidence of postoperative dyspareunia were recorded. The patients were evaluated at a postoperative office visit 2 weeks after the procedure and by telephone interview at 24 weeks. Seventy-five patients were included in the barbed suture group and 75 patients in the polyglactin 910 group. The average time to complete the suture of the vaginal cuff was 12.01 minutes (± 5.37 standard deviation) for the barbed suture group versus 13.49 minutes (± 6.48) in the polyglactin 910 group (95% confidence interval, -.44 to 3.4; p = .130). Blood loss was 31.56 ± 22.93 mL in the barbed suture group versus 30.82 ± 21.75 mL in the polyglactin 910 group (95% confidence interval, -7.95 to 6.47; p = .840). The frequency of postoperative events such as hematoma, cellulitis, cuff dehiscence, fever, emergency consultation, and hospitalization was not statistically significant between groups. No statistically significant difference was found regarding deep dyspareunia at 24 postoperative weeks.
CONCLUSION
No differences were found in surgical time or frequency of adverse events when comparing patients after vaginal cuff closure with barbed suture versus polyglactin 910.",2019,No differences were found in surgical time or frequency of adverse events when comparing patients after vaginal cuff closure with barbed suture versus polyglactin 910.,"['Seventy-five patients were included in the barbed suture group and 75 patients in the polyglactin 910 group', 'Total Laparoscopic Hysterectomy', 'One hundred fifty women who underwent', 'for benign pathology', 'Private gynecologic clinic in Medellin, Colombia']","['barbed suture compared with conventional suture', 'total laparoscopic hysterectomy with intracorporeal closure of the vaginal cuff', 'Barbed Suture versus Conventional Suture', 'total laparoscopic hysterectomy', 'barbed suture versus polyglactin', 'barbed suture (V-Loc 90; Medtronic/Covidien, New Haven, CT) and 1 using polyglactin 910 (coated Vicryl suture; Ethicon/Johnson & Johnson, New Brunswick, NJ']","['total operative time, closing time of the vaginal vault, presence of complications in the cuff, and incidence of postoperative dyspareunia', 'deep dyspareunia', 'surgical time, suture time, presence of postoperative dyspareunia, and complications', 'Blood loss', 'surgical time or frequency of adverse events', 'frequency of postoperative events such as hematoma, cellulitis, cuff dehiscence, fever, emergency consultation, and hospitalization', 'average time to complete the suture of the vaginal cuff']","[{'cui': 'C4319621', 'cui_str': 'Seventy-five'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C0332257', 'cui_str': 'Including (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0009068', 'cui_str': 'Closure by suture (procedure)'}, {'cui': 'C0439745', 'cui_str': 'Grouped (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0032495', 'cui_str': 'Polygalactin 910'}, {'cui': 'C0439810', 'cui_str': 'Total (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0404089', 'cui_str': 'Laparoscopic hysterectomy (procedure)'}, {'cui': 'C1704407', 'cui_str': '100 (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0043210', 'cui_str': 'Girls'}, {'cui': 'C0205183', 'cui_str': 'Benign (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0030664', 'cui_str': 'Pathology'}, {'cui': 'C4521534', 'cui_str': 'US Military enlisted E1'}, {'cui': 'C0205480', 'cui_str': 'Gynecologic (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0442592', 'cui_str': 'Clinic (environment)'}, {'cui': 'C3245499', 'cui_str': 'Colombia'}]","[{'cui': 'C0009068', 'cui_str': 'Closure by suture (procedure)'}, {'cui': 'C0439858', 'cui_str': 'Conventional (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0439810', 'cui_str': 'Total (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0404089', 'cui_str': 'Laparoscopic hysterectomy (procedure)'}, {'cui': 'C0185003', 'cui_str': 'Reparative closure (procedure)'}, {'cui': 'C1550321', 'cui_str': 'Vaginal cuff'}, {'cui': 'C0032494', 'cui_str': 'Poly(Lactide-Co-Glycoside)'}, {'cui': 'C0205314', 'cui_str': 'New (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0032495', 'cui_str': 'Polygalactin 910'}, {'cui': 'C1576039', 'cui_str': 'Vicryl suture (physical object)'}, {'cui': 'C0027963', 'cui_str': 'New Brunswick'}]","[{'cui': 'C0439810', 'cui_str': 'Total (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C3494201', 'cui_str': 'Length of Operative Time'}, {'cui': 'C1632851', 'cui_str': 'Times'}, {'cui': 'C0549115', 'cui_str': 'Structure of vaginal vault'}, {'cui': 'C0150312', 'cui_str': 'Present (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0009566', 'cui_str': 'Complication (disorder)'}, {'cui': 'C0220856', 'cui_str': 'incidence'}, {'cui': 'C0032790', 'cui_str': 'Postoperative Period'}, {'cui': 'C0013394', 'cui_str': 'Pain in female genitalia on intercourse (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C0423747', 'cui_str': 'Deep pain on intercourse (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C0009068', 'cui_str': 'Closure by suture (procedure)'}, {'cui': 'C0019080', 'cui_str': 'Bleeding'}, {'cui': 'C0376249', 'cui_str': 'Frequency (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0877248', 'cui_str': 'Adverse event'}, {'cui': 'C0441471', 'cui_str': 'Event (event)'}, {'cui': 'C0018944', 'cui_str': 'Hematoma'}, {'cui': 'C0007642', 'cui_str': 'Cellulitis'}, {'cui': 'C0149663', 'cui_str': 'Dehiscence (morphologic abnormality)'}, {'cui': 'C0015967', 'cui_str': 'Hyperthermia'}, {'cui': 'C0175673', 'cui_str': 'Emergency (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0009818', 'cui_str': 'Consultation'}, {'cui': 'C0019993', 'cui_str': 'Hospitalization'}, {'cui': 'C0205197', 'cui_str': 'Complete (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C1550321', 'cui_str': 'Vaginal cuff'}]",75.0,0.0741117,No differences were found in surgical time or frequency of adverse events when comparing patients after vaginal cuff closure with barbed suture versus polyglactin 910.,"[{'ForeName': 'Claudia C', 'Initials': 'CC', 'LastName': 'López', 'Affiliation': 'Clinica del Prado (Drs.

1374,32408883,Neurally adjusted ventilatory assist versus pressure support ventilation: a randomized controlled feasibility trial performed in patients at risk of prolonged mechanical ventilation.,"BACKGROUND
The clinical effectiveness of neurally adjusted ventilatory assist (NAVA) has yet to be demonstrated, and preliminary studies are required. The study aim was to assess the feasibility of a randomized controlled trial (RCT) of NAVA versus pressure support ventilation (PSV) in critically ill adults at risk of prolonged mechanical ventilation (MV).
METHODS
An open-label, parallel, feasibility RCT (n = 78) in four ICUs of one university-affiliated hospital. The primary outcome was mode adherence (percentage of time adherent to assigned mode), and protocol compliance (binary-≥ 65% mode adherence). Secondary exploratory outcomes included ventilator-free days (VFDs), sedation, and mortality.
RESULTS
In the 72 participants who commenced weaning, median (95% CI) mode adherence was 83.1% (64.0-97.1%) and 100% (100-100%), and protocol compliance was 66.7% (50.3-80.0%) and 100% (89.0-100.0%) in the NAVA and PSV groups respectively. Secondary outcomes indicated more VFDs to D28 (median difference 3.0 days, 95% CI 0.0-11.0; p = 0.04) and fewer in-hospital deaths (relative risk 0.5, 95% CI 0.2-0.9; p = 0.032) for NAVA. Although overall sedation was similar, Richmond Agitation and Sedation Scale (RASS) scores were closer to zero in NAVA compared to PSV (p = 0.020). No significant differences were observed in duration of MV, ICU or hospital stay, or ICU, D28, and D90 mortality.
CONCLUSIONS
This feasibility trial demonstrated good adherence to assigned ventilation mode and the ability to meet a priori protocol compliance criteria. Exploratory outcomes suggest some clinical benefit for NAVA compared to PSV. Clinical effectiveness trials of NAVA are potentially feasible and warranted.

1375,32409195,Exploring the Impact of Lung Cancer Screening on Lung Cancer Mortality of Smokers With Obstructive Lung Disease: Analysis of the NLST-ACRIN Cohort.,"BACKGROUND
Lung Cancer (LC) screening with low dose chest computed tomography (LDCT) in smokers reduces LC mortality. Patients with Obstructive Lung Disease (OLD) are at high risk for LC. The potential effect of LC screening in this population is unknown.
OBJECTIVE
To determine if screening with LDCT reduces LC mortality in smokers with spirometrically defined OLD.
METHODS
The National Lung Screening Trial-American College of Radiology Imaging Network (NLST-ACRIN) study included 13,831 subjects (55-74 years of age with ≥30 pack-year history of smoking) that had a baseline spirometry. Randomly assigned to LDCT or Chest X-ray, all had 3 annual rounds of screening. LC mortality was compared between the LDCT and chest X-ray arms during the 1st year and at 6 years of follow up. Landmark analysis explored LC mortality differences between arms after the first year.
RESULTS
From the 4584 subjects with OLD (FEV1/FVC <0.7), 152 (3.3%) died from LC. Multivariable analysis showed that screening trended to decrease LC mortality at 6 years (HR, 95%CI: 0.75, 0.55-1.04, p=0.09). During the 1st year no differences were found between arms (p=0.65). However, after this year, LDCT significantly decreased LC mortality (HR, 95%CI: 0.63, 0.44-0.91, p=0.01). The number needed to screen to avoid one LC death in these subjects was 108 while in those without OLD was 218.

1376,30350405,Three weeks of respiratory muscle endurance training improve the O 2 cost of walking and exercise tolerance in obese adolescents.,"Obese adolescents (OB) have an increased O 2 cost of exercise, attributable in part to an increased O 2 cost of breathing. In a previous work a short (3-week) program of respiratory muscle endurance training (RMET) slightly reduced in OB the O 2 cost of high-intensity cycling and improved exercise tolerance. We hypothesized that during treadmill walking the effects of RMET would be more pronounced than those observed during cycling. Sixteen OB (age 16.0 ± 0.8 years; body mass [BM] 127.7 ± 14.2 kg; body mass index 40.7 ± 4.0 kg/m 2 ) underwent to 3-week RMET (n = 8) superimposed to a multidisciplinary BM reduction program, or (CTRL, n = 8) only to the latter. Heart rate (HR) and pulmonary O 2 uptake ( V ˙ O 2 ) were measured during incremental exercise and 12-min constant work rate (CWR) walking at 60% (moderate-intensity, MOD) and 120% (heavy-intensity, HEAVY) of the gas exchange threshold (GET). The O 2 cost of walking (aerobic energy expenditure per unit of covered distance) was calculated as V ˙ O 2 /velocity. BM decreased (~4-5 kg) both in CTRL and in RMET. V ˙ O 2 peak and GET were not affected by both interventions; the time to exhaustion increased following RMET. During MOD and HEAVY RMET decreased V ˙ O 2, the O 2 cost of walking (MOD: 0.130 ± 0.033 mL/kg/m [before] vs. 0.109 ± 0.027 [after], P = 0.03; HEAVY: 0.196 ± 0.031 [before] vs. 0.180 ± 0.025 [after], P = 0.02), HR and rates of perceived exertion; no significant changes were observed in CTRL.

1377,31599746,Cold Snare Polypectomy in Patients Taking Dual Antiplatelet Therapy: A Randomized Trial of Discontinuation of Thienopyridines.,"INTRODUCTION
Cold snare polypectomy (CSP) is a safe and effective method for removing polyps ≤10 mm. The aim of this study was to compare the risk of clinically significant bleeding and thromboembolic events after CSP between stopping and continuing thienopyridines in patients taking dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT).
METHODS
The study was a single-center, noninferiority, and randomized controlled study involving patients who received colonoscopy from October 2015 to October 2016. Patients receiving DAPT with polyps ≤10 mm were randomly assigned to either the DAPT group (patients continued DAPT) or the aspirin group (patients discontinued thienopyridines for 1 week). Primary outcome was clinically significant bleeding. Secondary outcomes included intraprocedural bleeding, nonsignificant hematochezia, and occurrence of thromboembolic events.
RESULTS
Forty-two patients with 104 eligible polyps were allocated to the DAPT group, and 45 patients with 101 eligible polyps were allocated to the aspirin group. Patient demographic characteristics including size, location, shape, and pathology of the removed polyps were similar in the 2 groups. Intraprocedural bleeding and nonsignificant hematochezia rates were also similar between the 2 groups (4.8% vs 2.2%, P = 0.608; 19.0% vs 8.9%, P = 0.170). No thromboembolic event occurred in either group. Only 1 patient (2.4%) in the DAPT group showed clinically significant bleeding. No significant bleeding was found in the aspirin group.
DISCUSSION
Clinically significant bleeding rate after CSP for polyps ≤10 mm in patients continuing to take DAPT was 2.4%. Therefore, CSP is a safe method for removing small polyps even in patients taking DAPT (ClincialTrials.gov number, NCT02865824).",2019,Clinically significant bleeding rate after CSP for polyps ≤10 mm in patients continuing to take DAPT was 2.4%.,"['Patients', 'Patients receiving DAPT with polyps ≤10 mm', 'patients who received colonoscopy from October 2015 to October 2016', '45 patients with 101 eligible polyps', 'Forty-two patients with 104 eligible polyps', 'patients taking dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT']","['Taking Dual Antiplatelet Therapy', 'Thienopyridines', 'Cold Snare Polypectomy', 'Cold snare polypectomy (CSP', 'aspirin', 'DAPT group (patients continued DAPT', 'DAPT', 'CSP']","['size, location, shape, and pathology of the removed polyps', 'clinically significant bleeding', 'Intraprocedural bleeding and nonsignificant hematochezia rates', 'bleeding rate', 'thromboembolic event', 'intraprocedural bleeding, nonsignificant hematochezia, and occurrence of thromboembolic events', 'bleeding']","[{'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C0032584', 'cui_str': 'Polyp (morphologic abnormality)'}, {'cui': 'C0009378', 'cui_str': 'Endoscopy of colon'}, {'cui': 'C4319566', 'cui_str': 'Forty-two'}, {'cui': 'C4517527', 'cui_str': '104'}, {'cui': 'C1515187', 'cui_str': 'Take'}, {'cui': 'C1096021', 'cui_str': 'Antiplatelet therapy'}]","[{'cui': 'C1515187', 'cui_str': 'Take'}, {'cui': 'C1096021', 'cui_str': 'Antiplatelet therapy'}, {'cui': 'C1120149', 'cui_str': 'thienopyridine'}, {'cui': 'C1446340', 'cui_str': 'Cold snare'}, {'cui': 'C0521210', 'cui_str': 'Resection of polyp'}, {'cui': 'C1145610', 'cui_str': 'Cellulose sodium phosphate'}, {'cui': 'C0004057', 'cui_str': 'acetylsalicylic acid'}, {'cui': 'C0439745', 'cui_str': 'Grouped (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}]","[{'cui': 'C0456389', 'cui_str': 'Size (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0450429', 'cui_str': 'Location (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0522512', 'cui_str': 'With shape (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0030664', 'cui_str': 'Pathology'}, {'cui': 'C1883720', 'cui_str': 'Removes'}, {'cui': 'C0032584', 'cui_str': 'Polyp (morphologic abnormality)'}, {'cui': 'C0750502', 'cui_str': 'Significant'}, {'cui': 'C0018932', 'cui_str': 'Hematochezia'}, {'cui': 'C0019080', 'cui_str': 'Bleeding'}, {'cui': 'C0040038', 'cui_str': 'Thromboembolism'}, {'cui': 'C2745955', 'cui_str': 'Occurrences (qualifier value)'}]",42.0,0.0588917,Clinically significant bleeding rate after CSP for polyps ≤10 mm in patients continuing to take DAPT was 2.4%.,"[{'ForeName': 'Dae', 'Initials': 'D', 'LastName': 'Won', 'Affiliation': ""Division of Gastroenterology, Department of Internal Medicine, Incheon St. Mary's Hospital, College of Medicine, The Catholic University of Korea, Incheon, Korea.""}, {'ForeName': 'Joon Sung', 'Initials': 'JS', 'LastName': 'Kim', 'Affiliation': ""Division of Gastroenterology, Department of Internal Medicine, Incheon St. Mary's Hospital, College of Medicine, The Catholic University of Korea, Incheon, Korea.""}, {'ForeName': 'Jeong-Seon', 'Initials': 'JS', 'LastName': 'Ji', 'Affiliation': ""Division of Gastroenterology, Department of Internal Medicine, Incheon St. Mary's Hospital, College of Medicine, The Catholic University of Korea, Incheon, Korea.""}, {'ForeName': 'Byung-Wook', 'Initials': 'BW', 'LastName': 'Kim', 'Affiliation': ""Division of Gastroenterology, Department of Internal Medicine, Incheon St. Mary's Hospital, College of Medicine, The Catholic University of Korea, Incheon, Korea.""}, {'ForeName': 'Hwang', 'Initials': 'H', 'LastName': 'Choi', 'Affiliation': ""Division of Gastroenterology, Department of Internal Medicine, Incheon St. Mary's Hospital, College of Medicine, The Catholic University of Korea, Incheon, Korea.""}]",Clinical and translational gastroenterology,['10.14309/ctg.0000000000000091']
1378,32408868,Strategies for evaluating self-efficacy and observed success in the practice of yoga postures for therapeutic indications: methods from a yoga intervention for urinary incontinence among middle-aged and older women.,"BACKGROUND
Most clinical investigations involving yoga lack adequate description of the specific yoga elements, including physical postures. Few studies have measured self-efficacy regarding the performance of yoga postures or assessed observed success in performing postures.
METHODS
We developed and piloted several tools to evaluate self-efficacy and observed success in practicing yoga in the context of a randomized feasibility trial of an Iyengar-based yoga intervention for urinary incontinence in ambulatory women ≥50 years. At the end of the 12-week yoga intervention involving twice weekly group yoga classes and once weekly home practice, participants rated their self-efficacy in performing each of the included 15 yoga postures on a 5-point Likert scale. During the 12th week, an expert yoga consultant observed participants and rated their competency in performing postures on a 5-point scale. Participants completed a questionnaire about self-efficacy in adhering to home yoga practice. We examined the distribution of and correlations between scores on the above measures.
RESULTS
Among 27 participants (mean age 65 years), the range of means for self-efficacy ratings for individual postures was 3.6 to 4.5. The range of means for observed competency ratings for individual postures was 3.3 to 5.0. Mean self-efficacy rating for confidence in adhering to the assigned once-weekly home yoga practice was 2.8 (range 1 to 5). Posture self-efficacy was inversely correlated with participant age (p = 0.01) and positively correlated with self-reported physical function (p = 0.03) and mobility (p = 0.01). No significant correlations were found between posture self-efficacy scale scores and expert-observed yoga competency ratings or practice adherence self-efficacy scores.
CONCLUSIONS
These measures hold promise for advancing yoga research and practice by describing methods to: 1) measure self-efficacy in performing specific yoga postures; 2) use an expert observer to assess participants' competence in performing yoga postures; and 3) measure self-efficacy in adhering to home practice. These proposed measures can be used to describe specific components of yoga interventions, to assess whether study participants are able to learn to practice physical aspects of yoga and/or maintain this practice over time, as well as to investigate relationships between self-efficacy and competency in performing yoga postures to achieve specific health outcomes.

1380,31584231,Evaluation of the effect of sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 inhibition with empagliflozin on morbidity and mortality of patients with chronic heart failure and a reduced ejection fraction: rationale for and design of the EMPEROR-Reduced trial.,"Drugs that inhibit the sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2) have been shown to reduce the risk of hospitalizations for heart failure in patients with type 2 diabetes. In populations that largely did not have heart failure at the time of enrolment, empagliflozin, canagliflozin and dapagliflozin decreased the risk of serious new-onset heart failure events by ≈30%. In addition, in the EMPA-REG OUTCOME trial, empagliflozin reduced the risk of both pump failure and sudden deaths, the two most common modes of death among patients with heart failure. In none of the three trials could the benefits of SGLT2 inhibitors on heart failure be explained by the actions of these drugs as diuretics or anti-hyperglycaemic agents. These observations raise the possibility that SGLT2 inhibitors could reduce morbidity and mortality in patients with established heart failure, including those without diabetes. The EMPEROR-Reduced trial is enrolling ≈3600 patients with heart failure and a reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (≤ 40%), half of whom are expected not to have diabetes. Patients are being randomized to placebo or empagliflozin 10 mg daily, which is added to all appropriate treatment with inhibitors of the renin-angiotensin system and neprilysin, beta-blockers and mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists. The primary endpoint is the time-to-first event analysis of the combined risk of cardiovascular death and hospitalization for heart failure, but the trial will also evaluate the effects of empagliflozin on renal function, cardiovascular death, all-cause mortality, and recurrent hospitalization events.

1381,30475306,Cardiovascular Risk Factor Reduction in First Responders Resulting From an Individualized Lifestyle and Blood Test Program: A Randomized Controlled Trial.,"OBJECTIVE
We tested the hypothesis that a lifestyle program would improve risk factors linked to cardiovascular disease (CVD) in first responders.
METHODS
A 1-year cluster-randomized controlled clinical trial in 10 cities. Participants were 175 first responders, with increased waist circumference and/or low levels of large (α1) high-density lipoprotein (HDL) particles. The intervention group received personalized online tools and access to telephonic coaching sessions.
RESULTS
At 1 year the intervention significantly reduced body weight (P = 0.004) and waist circumference (P = 0.002), increased α1 HDL (P = 0.01), and decreased triglyceride (P = 0.005) and insulin concentrations (P = 0.03). Program adherence was associated with weight loss (P = 0.0005) and increases in α1 HDL (P = 0.03).
CONCLUSIONS
In first responders, a personalized lifestyle intervention significantly improved CVD risk factors in proportion to program adherence. Changes in large HDL particles were more sensitive indicators of lifestyle changes than HDL-cholesterol measurement.

1382,32409111,Melatonin and melatonin agonists as treatments for benzodiazepines and hypnotics withdrawal in patients with primary insomnia. A systematic review.,"BACKGROUND
Hypnotics (HYP) and benzodiazepines (BZD) are medicines prescribed for the insomnia treatment. Many patients present difficulties in discontinuing the treatment once established. Melatonin (MLT) has been prescribed as a treatment for BZD/HYP detoxification.
AIMS
The primary objective of this systematic review is to assess the efficacy of MLT and MLT agonists (melatoninergics) in improving the rate of BZD and/or HYP discontinuation among adults with primary insomnia attempting to discontinue BZD and/or HYP. The secondary objective is to evaluate the partial efficacy of melatoninergic drugs in the discontinuation of BZD and/or HYP consumption in subjects that could not stop their consumption.
METHOD
A search on Web of Science and Scopus was carried out from database inception to July 1st, 2019.
RESULTS
Three hundred and forty-nine articles were identified but only four were included in the final review. Two were cohort prospective, one placebo-control double blind and one double blind placebo-control cross-over designed study. Total withdrawal (TW) ranged from 0% to 25% in the placebo arm and from 64.3% to 77.8% in the MLT arm. In cohort studies TW figures ranged from 30.8% to 65%. Partial withdrawal ranged between 20% and 30.8% of patients that did not achieve TW with reduction figures of diazepam equivalent dose ranging from 25% to 75%.

1383,32409241,[Impact of antiplatelet and anticoagulant treatments on bleeding complications in patients treated with HoLEP].,"INTRODUCTION
We aimed to assess the impact of antiplatelet and anticoagulation therapy for patients undergoing HoLEP.
METHODS
We performed a study during the learning curve on a consecutive series of patients who underwent HoLEP surgery from 2015 to 2018. The patients were divided into 3 groups: a control group, patients with antiplatelet therapy and patients with anticoagulation therapy.
RESULTS
A total of 223 patients underwent HoLEP surgery during this period: 124 in the control group, 63 in the antiplatelet group and 36 in the anticoagulant group. In the anticoagulant group, we observe significant differences with the control group for the catheterization time (2.05 days vs 5.17 days; P<0.001), the hospital length of stay (1.5 nights vs 4.49 nights; P<0.001) and complications (8.9% vs 58%; P<0.001). No difference between the control and antiplatelet groups in terms of catheterization time, hospital length of stay and complications (2.05 days vs 2.68 days; 1.5 nights vs 1.6 nights) but variation in terms of complications and bleeding complications (8.9% vs 21%; P<0,001; 8.1% vs 19%; P<0,001) CONCLUSION: Our study shows that HoLEP is therefore associated with a higher risk of bleeding for patients treated with anticoagulation therapy. Complications increase morbidity with longer catheterization time, hospitalization times and higher transfusion's rates, revision surgery and readmission.

1384,31652109,Cold-Water Immersion Does Not Accelerate Performance Recovery After 10-km Street Run: Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial.,"The use of strategies to assure better post-effort recovery is frequent in sports settings. There are several interventions available for exercise induced muscle damage recovery, but cold-water immersion (CWI) stands out among them. The effects of CWI are unclear in the literature and, although the number of street runners has been growing, there is a gap in the scientific evidence regarding the use of CWI to recover runners' performance after a 10-km street run. Purpose: The goal of our study was to analyze the effects of CWI on the recovery of muscle damage markers after a 10-km street run. Method: We randomly assigned thirty male recreational street runners, immediately after a 10-km street run, into three recovery groups: control (rest for 10 minutes), immersion (10 min immersed in water without ice at room temperature) and CWI (10 min immersed in water with ice at 10ºC). We assessed pain, triple hop distance, extensor peak torque and blood creatine kinase levels pre- and post-run, post-intervention and 24 hours after the run. Results: The 10-km run was enough to decrease triple hop distance and extensor peak torque, and increase levels of creatine kinase ( p < 0.05); however, we found no time/group interactions in any of the assessed variables after we applied the appropriate interventions ( p > 0.05).

1385,31648203,Effects of a 12-Week Chronic Stretch Training Program at Different Intensities on Joint and Muscle Mechanical Responses: A Randomized Clinical Trial.,"CONTEXT
Stretching intensity is an important variable that can be manipulated with flexibility training. However, there is a lack of evidence regarding this variable and its prescription in stretching programs.
OBJECTIVE
To investigate the effects of 12 weeks of knee flexor static stretching at different intensities on joint and muscle mechanical properties.
DESIGN
A randomized clinical trial.
SETTING
Laboratory.
PARTICIPANTS
A total of 14 untrained men were allocated into the low- or high-intensity group.
MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES
Assessments were performed before, at 6 week, and after intervention (12 wk) for biceps femoris long head architecture (resting fascicle length and angle), knee maximal range of motion (ROM) at the beginning and maximal discomfort angle, knee maximal tolerated passive torque, joint passive stiffness, viscoelastic stress relaxation, knee passive torque at a given angle, and affective responses to training.
RESULTS
No significant differences were observed between groups for any variable. ROM at the beginning and maximal discomfort angle increased at 6 and 12 weeks, respectively. ROM significantly increased with the initial angle of discomfort (P < .001, effect size = 1.38) over the pretest measures by 13.4% and 14.6% at the 6- and 12-week assessments, respectively, and significantly improved with the maximal discomfort angle (P < .001, effect size = 1.25) by 15.6% and 18.8% from the pretest to the 6- and 12-week assessments, respectively. No significant effects were seen for muscle architecture and affective responses. Initial viscoelastic relaxation for the low-intensity group was lower than ending viscoelastic relaxation.

1386,30142023,Sleep facilitates consolidation of positive emotional memory in healthy older adults.,"Evidence has demonstrated that sleep-related memory consolidation declines in ageing. However, little is known about age-related changes to sleep-related emotional memory consolidation, especially when considering the positivity effect observed in older adults. In the present study, we sought to explore whether there is a positive emotional bias in sleep-related memory consolidation among healthy older adults. Young and older adults were randomly assigned either into a sleep or wake condition. All participants encoded positive, negative, and neutral stimuli and underwent recognition tests immediately ( test 1 ), after a 12-hour sleep/wake interval ( test 2 ), and 3 days after test 2 ( test 3 ). Results showed that age-related differences of sleep beneficial effect were modulated by emotion valence. In particular, sleep selectively enhanced positive memory in older adults, while in young adults sleep beneficial effect was manifested in neutral memory. Moreover, the sleep beneficial effect can be maintained at least 3 days in both young and older adults. These findings suggest that older adults had preserved but positive bias of sleep-related memory consolidation, which could be one of the underlying mechanisms for their generally better emotional well-being in daily life. These findings highlight the dynamic interplay among sleep and emotional memory in older adults.",2019,"In particular, sleep selectively enhanced positive memory in older adults, while in young adults sleep beneficial effect was manifested in neutral memory.","['young and older adults', 'healthy older adults', 'Young and older adults', 'older adults']",[],['sleep beneficial effect'],"[{'cui': 'C0332239', 'cui_str': 'Young (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0677546', 'cui_str': 'Old episode (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0001675', 'cui_str': 'Adult'}]",[],"[{'cui': 'C0424522', 'cui_str': 'Asleep (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C1280500', 'cui_str': 'Effect (qualifier value)'}]",,0.0396723,"In particular, sleep selectively enhanced positive memory in older adults, while in young adults sleep beneficial effect was manifested in neutral memory.","[{'ForeName': 'Wen-Jun', 'Initials': 'WJ', 'LastName': 'Gui', 'Affiliation': ""a Faculty of Psychology , Southwest University , Chongqing 400715 , People's Republic of China.""}, {'ForeName': 'Peng-Yun', 'Initials': 'PY', 'LastName': 'Wang', 'Affiliation': ""b Key Laboratory of Mental Health , Institute of Psychology, Chinese Academy of Sciences , Beijing 100101 , People's Republic of China.""}, {'ForeName': 'Xu', 'Initials': 'X', 'LastName': 'Lei', 'Affiliation': ""a Faculty of Psychology , Southwest University , Chongqing 400715 , People's Republic of China.""}, {'ForeName': 'Tian', 'Initials': 'T', 'LastName': 'Lin', 'Affiliation': 'c Department of Psychology , University of Florida , Gainesville , FL 32611-2250 , USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Marilyn', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Horta', 'Affiliation': 'c Department of Psychology , University of Florida , Gainesville , FL 32611-2250 , USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Xiao-Yi', 'Initials': 'XY', 'LastName': 'Liu', 'Affiliation': ""a Faculty of Psychology , Southwest University , Chongqing 400715 , People's Republic of China.""}, {'ForeName': 'Jing', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Yu', 'Affiliation': ""a Faculty of Psychology , Southwest University , Chongqing 400715 , People's Republic of China.""}]","Memory (Hove, England)",['10.1080/09658211.2018.1513038']
1387,31609926,Brief Report: Zinc Supplementation and Inflammation in Treated HIV.,"OBJECTIVE
In this study, we explored the effect of zinc supplementation on markers of inflammation and monocyte activation in antiretroviral therapy-treated HIV infection.
METHODS
This is a phase I open-labeled randomized double-arm study, exploring the efficacy and safety of zinc supplementation on inflammation in ≥18-year-old people living with HIV in the US, on stable antiretroviral therapy and with zinc levels ≤75 µg/dL in the last 60 days. Patients were randomized 1:1 to zinc gluconate capsules at a dose of 45 mg (low-dose), or 90 mg (high-dose) elemental zinc daily for 16 weeks. We assessed inflammatory and gut integrity biomarkers at baseline and 16 weeks.
RESULTS
Overall, a total of 52 participants were enrolled (25 participants in the low-dose arm and 27 participants in the high-dose arm). Median (Interquartile range) age was 49 (38, 60) years, 77% were men and 73% were African Americans. At baseline, median zinc levels were 73 (64, 86) µg/dL. Median circulating zinc levels increased to 91 µg/dL in the low-dose arm and to 100 µg/dL in the high-dose arm. Overall, 48%-60% of participants experienced a reduction in biomarkers levels. The margin of reduction ranged between 8% and 21%. This change was meaningful with large effect size (Cohen D ranging from 5 to 19).
CONCLUSIONS

1388,31504572,Reduction of inappropriate medication in older populations by electronic decision support (the PRIMA-eDS project): a survey of general practitioners' experiences.,"OBJECTIVE
We sought to investigate the experiences of general practitioners (GPs) with an electronic decision support tool to reduce inappropriate polypharmacy in older patients (the PRIMA-eDS [Polypharmacy in chronic diseases: Reduction of Inappropriate Medication and Adverse drug events in older populations by electronic Decision Support] tool) in a multinational sample of GPs and to quantify the findings from a prior qualitative study on the PRIMA-eDS-tool.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
Alongside the cluster randomized controlled PRIMA-eDS trial, a survey was conducted in all 5 participating study centers (Bolzano, Italy; Manchester, United Kingdom; Salzburg, Austria; Rostock, Germany; and Witten, Germany) between October 2016 and July 2017. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and chi-square tests.
RESULTS
Ninety-one (n = 160) percent of the 176 questionnaires were returned. Thirty-two percent of the respondents reported that they did not cease drugs because of the medication check. The 68% who had discontinued drugs comprise 57% who had stopped on average 1 drug and 11% who had stopped 2 drugs or more per patient. The PRIMA-eDS tool was found to be useful (69%) and the recommendations were found to help to increase awareness (86%). The greatest barrier to implementing deprescribing recommendations was the perceived necessity of the medication (69%). The majority of respondents (65%) would use the electronic medication check in routine practice if it was part of the electronic health record.
CONCLUSIONS
GPs generally viewed the PRIMA-eDS medication check as useful and as informative. Recommendations were not always followed due to various reasons.

1389,31686430,A relatively higher intraocular pressure set at the end of vitrectomy is associated with a more stable and rapid visual recovery for patients with vitreous haemorrhage.,"PURPOSE
To compare structural and functional improvements in patients with vitreous haemorrhage (VH) with different IOPs re-established at the end of pars plana vitrectomy (PPV).
METHODS
It is a prospective, randomized, comparative, interventional study. Ninety-five patients with nonclearing VH were randomized to receive PPV with normalized IOPs of 15 mmHg (Group I: 32 eyes), 25 mmHg (Group II: 32 eyes) and 35 mmHg (Group III: 31 eyes) at the end of surgery. The grade of vitreous opacity and best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) on postoperative day 1, week 1, month 1 and month 3 were compared with a mixed model for repeated measures analysis.
RESULTS
All 3 groups achieved significant improvement on postoperatively in BCVA (p < 0.01) and vitreous opacity (p < 0.01) compared with the baseline. The group difference was significant at the end of week 1 and showed a trend of higher IOP set at the end of PPV with better anatomical (p < 0.01) and visual recovery (p < 0.01). However, at postoperative month 1 and month 3, equivalent anatomical (month 1: p = 0.56; month 3: p = 0.36) and visual outcomes (month 1: p = 0.16; month 3: p = 0.88) were obtained in the 3 groups. The average effect of IOP on BCVA (group II versus group III: effect size (ES): 0.41, p < 0.01; group I versus group III: ES: 0.66, p < 0.01) and vitreous opacity (group II versus group III: ES: 0.70, p < 0.01; group I versus group III: ES:1.09, p < 0.01) over the course of the study period was statistically significant.

1390,31261247,Evaluation of a Novel Educational Tool in Adolescents With Inflammatory Bowel Disease: The NEAT Study.,"OBJECTIVES
Among adolescents with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), nonadherence rates are 50 to 88% across medications. Improving education in adults with IBD has been shown to improve coping and adherence to treatment in adults with IBD. Therapeutic patient education (TPE) has been used in patients with chronic diseases to train patients in skills to support treatment adaptation and condition management. This study tested the feasibility and preliminary efficacy of a novel TPE intervention in adolescents with IBD.
METHODS
In this pilot, mixed-methods study, we evaluated the feasibility and preliminary efficacy of TPE with the IBD Pocket Guide on medication adherence, IBD knowledge, and transition readiness in adolescents ages 11 to 18 years. Medication adherence was monitored using a MedMinder Pill Dispensing system. Participants who were <90% adherent during a 4-week pre-intervention monitoring period were randomized to either a usual care group or an educational intervention (EI) group. Participants were followed for an additional 4 weeks after intervention.
RESULTS
Trends were found in the EI group indicating improved medication adherence and IBD knowledge compared with the usual care group, though differences between groups did not reach statistical significance. Qualitative data showed that participants perceived that they had improved knowledge after the educational intervention.
CONCLUSIONS
Therapeutic patient education may be beneficial for improving patient medication adherence and IBD knowledge. Future directions include testing the effects of the intervention with a larger sample.",2019,"RESULTS

1391,31356580,Therapeutic Hypothermia in Organ Donors: Follow-up and Safety Analysis.,"BACKGROUND
In a recent trial, targeted mild hypothermia in brain-dead organ donors significantly reduced the incidence of delayed graft function after kidney transplantation. This trial was stopped early for efficacy. Here, we report long-term graft survival for all organs along with donor critical care end points.
METHODS
We assessed graft survival through 1 year of all solid organs transplanted from 370 donors who had been randomly assigned to hypothermia (34-35°C) or normothermia (36.5-37.5°C) before donation. Additionally, changes in standardized critical care end points were compared between donors in each group.
RESULTS
Mild hypothermia was associated with a nonsignificant improvement in 1-year kidney transplant survival (95% versus 92%; hazard ratio, 0.61 [0.31-1.20]; P = 0.15). Mild hypothermia was associated with higher 1-year graft survival in the subgroup of standard criteria donors (97% versus 93%; hazard ratio, 0.39 [0.15 to -1.00]; P = 0.05). There were no significant differences in graft survival of extrarenal organs. There were no differences in critical care end points between groups.

1392,31647384,Long-Term Effects in the EXERDIET-HTA Study: Supervised Exercise Training vs . Physical Activity Advice.,"Purpose : To determine whether improvements in cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF), blood pressure (BP) and body composition previously seen after a 16-week exercise intervention (POST) with hypocaloric diet are maintained following six months (6M) of unsupervised exercise time. Methods : Overweight/obese, physically inactive participants with primary hypertension (HTN) (n = 190) were randomly assigned into an attention control group (physical activity recommendations) or one of three supervised exercise groups. After POST, all participants received diet and physical activity advice for the following 6M but no supervision. All anthropometric and physiological measurements were taken pre and post the 16-week supervised intervention period, as well as after 6M of no supervision. Results : After 6M: 1) body mass (BM) (Δ = 2.5%) and waist circumference (Δ = 1.8%) were higher ( P < .005) than POST, but lower ( P < .005) than pre-intervention (BM, Δ = -5.1%; waist circumference, Δ = -4.7%), with high-volume and high-intensity interval training group revealing a higher BM reduction (Δ = -6.4 kg) compared to control group (Δ = -3.5 kg); 2) BP variables were higher ( P < .001) compared to POST with no change from pre-intervention; and 3) CRF was higher compared to pre-intervention (Δ = 17.1%, P < .001) but lower than POST (Δ = -5.7%, P < .001). Conclusions : When an overweight/obese population with HTN attains significant improvements in cardiometabolic health POST intervention with diet restriction, there is a significant reduction following 6M when exercise and diet supervision is removed, and only recommendations were applied.

1393,32409277,Community perspectives on difference of sex development (DSD) diagnoses: A crowdsourced survey.,"INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES
Differences of sex development (DSD) engender ethical, social and psychosexual complexities that can complicate medical decision-making. We performed a web-based pilot study to estimate the utility value of a DSD diagnosis and to identify community concerns regarding DSD management.
METHODS
A cross-sectional survey was posted on Amazon's Mechanical Turk, an online crowdsourcing platform. Respondents were ≥18y and were randomized to receive information on one of three common DSD conditions: Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia (CAH), Mixed Gonadal Dysgenesis (MGD), and Partial Androgen Insensitivity Syndrome (PAIS). Time trade-off methodology was used to estimate utility values. Likert scale and statement-ranking questions were used to assess respondent perceptions.
RESULTS
Of 1,628 respondents, median age was 34y; most respondents were parents (59.1%), white (77.1%), and previously unfamiliar with DSD (60.4%). The median overall utility value was 0.70 (IQR 0.50-0.90), similar to moderately severe chronic health conditions. Utility estimates varied based on the DSD scenario presented (0.80 CAH vs. 0.70 MGD vs. 0.80 PAIS, p = 0.0006), respondent gender (p < 0.0001), race (p = 0.002), religion (p = 0.005), and prior knowledge of DSD (p < 0.0001). Reported concerns included gender identity (23.4%), urinary function (20.5%) and surgical complications (17.4%). Most (67.5%) supported early surgical intervention at 6-18 mo; 10.4% thought surgery should occur ≥18 y.
COMMENT
Limitations of this study include that survey participants were aware of the nature of the study, thus some respondents may have participated to skew the results. Given the nature of this pilot study, the representation of families with children with DSD within the study is severely limited given the rarity of DSDs. This means that their opinions may be diluted by the large sample size. However, because utility values are classically estimated according to community opinions, the utility data presented should be taken to reflect that of the specific sample studied and is not reflective of that of families with a vested interest in such cases.
CONCLUSIONS
Community-based respondents perceived that DSD conditions were associated with a reduction in utility values (0.70-0.80), on par with moderately severe chronic health conditions. Estimates varied based on respondents' gender, race, religion and prior knowledge of DSD. Gender identity was the most concerning aspect for respondents.",2020,"Most (67.5%) supported early surgical intervention at 6-18 mo; 10.4% thought surgery should occur ≥18 y.

To investigate differences and describe experiences of postoperative recovery after day surgery between patients undergoing general anesthesia (GA) versus regional anesthesia (RA).
DESIGN
A mixed methods design.
METHODS
Day surgery patients (N = 401) were included. Postoperative recovery was assessed daily for 14 days using the Swedish Web Version of the Quality of Recovery questionnaire included in a mobile application. In addition, qualitative interviews were completed with 20 day surgery patients. Quantitative and qualitative data were first analyzed separately and then merged.
FINDINGS
There were significant differences in Swedish Web Version of the Quality of Recovery between GA and RA on days 1 to 13 (P < .05). These findings could not be confirmed in the qualitative findings, except for psychological issues as well as tiredness and fatigue. Unexpected issues contributed to a greater extent to the theme not feeling well. Pain in the surgical wound was overall the biggest problem.

1395,31197602,Examining Sleep Quality Following Sleeve Gastrectomy Among Patients with Loss-of-Control Eating.,"BACKGROUND
Sleep is associated with post-bariatric surgical outcomes; however, little is known about sleep in bariatric patients with loss-of-control (LOC) eating, a consistent predictor of poorer weight outcomes. This study examined sleep quality and clinical correlates in sleeve gastrectomy patients with LOC eating.
METHODS
Participants (N = 145) were treatment-seeking post-operative sleeve gastrectomy patients with LOC eating. Eating-disorder features were assessed with the Eating Disorder Examination-Bariatric Surgery Version Interview (EDE-BSV) and participants completed established measures assessing sleep, health-related quality of life, perceived stress, depression, and night eating.
RESULTS
58.6% of participants were characterized with ""poor"" sleep. Poor sleep quality was significantly associated with greater eating-disorder psychopathology, physical and mental functioning, night eating, perceived stress, and less % excess weight loss (EWL); these findings remained significant after controlling for %EWL and race. Regression analyses, adjusting for correlated variables, revealed that sleep quality significantly predicted mental functioning.
CONCLUSIONS
Poor sleep quality was common among post-operative sleeve gastrectomy patients with LOC eating. Sleep quality was significantly associated with eating-disorder psychopathology, less post-operative weight loss, and psychosocial and physical functioning problems.

1396,31149870,Role and plasticity of Th1 and Th17 responses in immunity to Staphylococcus aureus .,"The human commensal Staphylococcus aureus (SA) is a leading cause of skin/soft tissue and surgical-site infections, and bacteremia. Functional antibodies and T-cell-mediated immunity, particularly Th1/Th17 responses, are thought to mediate protection. Vaccine development may be hindered by modulation of vaccine-induced T cells by pathogen-activated immunoregulatory responses, e.g., via IL-10.We screened SA proteins for CD4 + T-cell-activating and IL-10/IL-17-inducing capacities using healthy donor-derived PBMCs. Responses were characterized (Th1/Th17/Th22/immunosuppressive IL-10-producing cells) using intracellular cytokine staining and flow cytometry. Phenotypic plasticity of Th1/Th17 cells was evaluated under pro- or anti-inflammatory conditions using modulatory cytokines. The impact of vaccination on SA-specific memory responses was assessed using samples from a clinical trial evaluating AS03-adjuvanted and non-adjuvanted multicomponent (CPS5/CPS8/α-toxin/ClfA) vaccines (NCT01160172).The donors exhibited SA-specific memory T-cell responses, indicative of pre-existing immunity to SA. We identified effective activators of Th1 responses (EbhA/IsaA/SdrE/MntC/Aaa/α-toxin), and Th17 and Th1/Th17 responses (EbhA/IsaA/SdrE and, to a lesser extent, α-toxin), but not of Th22 responses or IL-10 production. MRPII, IsdA, and ClfA were inefficient CD4 + T-cell activators in our assays. IL-10, likely produced by innate immune cells, influenced mainly Th1 cells by suppressing IFN-γ production. The memory CD4 + T-cells observed after long-term stimulation with α-toxin and ClfA indicated that vaccination with these proteins had induced expansion of pre-existing Th1 but not Th17 responses, without apparent adjuvant effect, confirming the trial data. The Th1/Th17-driving proteins (EbhA/IsaA/SdrE) shared low IL-10-promoting abilities and restricted phenotypic plasticity under pro- and anti-inflammatory conditions.Given the complex immunopathology and multiple virulence factors, identification of Th1/Th17-driving antigens, adjuvants and administration routes, and delineation of the role of memory responses, may advance vaccine development.",2019,Responses were characterized (Th1/Th17/Th22/immunosuppressive IL-10-producing cells) using intracellular cytokine staining and flow cytometry.,[],[],"['memory CD4 + T-cells', 'SA-specific memory responses', 'MRPII, IsdA, and ClfA']",[],[],"[{'cui': 'C0025260', 'cui_str': 'Memory function'}, {'cui': 'C0003323', 'cui_str': 'Lymphocyte antigen CD4'}, {'cui': 'C0039194', 'cui_str': 'T lymphocyte'}, {'cui': 'C0205369', 'cui_str': 'Specific'}]",,0.0928145,Responses were characterized (Th1/Th17/Th22/immunosuppressive IL-10-producing cells) using intracellular cytokine staining and flow cytometry.,"[{'ForeName': 'Alessandra', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Ferraro', 'Affiliation': 'GSK Vaccines, GSK, Rixensart, Belgium.'}, {'ForeName': 'Sofia M', 'Initials': 'SM', 'LastName': 'Buonocore', 'Affiliation': 'GSK Vaccines, GSK, Rixensart, Belgium.'}, {'ForeName': 'Philippe', 'Initials': 'P', 'LastName': 'Auquier', 'Affiliation': 'GSK Vaccines, GSK, Rixensart, Belgium.'}, {'ForeName': 'Isabelle', 'Initials': 'I', 'LastName': 'Nicolas', 'Affiliation': 'GSK Vaccines, GSK, Rixensart, Belgium.'}, {'ForeName': 'Hugues', 'Initials': 'H', 'LastName': 'Wallemacq', 'Affiliation': 'GSK Vaccines, GSK, Rixensart, Belgium.'}, {'ForeName': 'Dominique', 'Initials': 'D', 'LastName': 'Boutriau', 'Affiliation': 'GSK Vaccines, GSK, Rixensart, Belgium.'}, {'ForeName': 'Robbert G', 'Initials': 'RG', 'LastName': 'van der Most', 'Affiliation': 'GSK Vaccines, GSK, Rixensart, Belgium.'}]",Human vaccines & immunotherapeutics,['10.1080/21645515.2019.1613126']
1397,31148436,"Re-Classifying Hypertension in the Venezuelan EVESCAM Database Using 2017 AHA/ACC Criteria: High Prevalence, Poor Control, and Urgent Call for Action.","BACKGROUND
In 2017 the American Heart Association (AHA)/American College of Cardiology (ACC) changed the criteria to define hypertension (HTN).
OBJECTIVE
To re-analyze Venezuelan data to update HTN prevalence rates and estimate the number of adults with uncontrolled blood pressure (BP) using AHA/ACC criteria.
METHODS
The EVESCAM was a national population-based, cross-sectional, randomized cluster sampling study, which assessed 3,420 adults from July 2014 to January 2017, with a response rate of 77.3%. The mean of two BP measurements was obtained using a standard oscillometric device protocol. HTN was defined using both 2017 AHA/ACC guideline (BP ≥ 130/80 mmHg) and JNC7 (BP ≥ 140/90 mmHg) criteria.
FINDINGS
The crude prevalence of HTN using 2017 AHA/ACC guideline criteria was 60.4%, 13% higher than with the JNC7 criteria. The age-standardized prevalence was 55.4% in men and 49.0% in women (p < 0.001), 17.5% and 12.7% higher, respectively, compared with the JNC7 criteria. In subjects without self-reported HTN, the age-standardized prevalence of HTN was 43.4% in men and 32.3% in women, of whom, 22.9% and 19.2% were between 130-139/80-89 mmHg, respectively. In those with self-reported HTN, the prevalence of uncontrolled BP (≥130/80 mmHg) on antihypertensive medication was 66.8% in men and 65.8% in women. The total estimated number of subjects with HTN in Venezuela increased to 11 million, and only about 1.8 million are controlled.
CONCLUSION
Using the new 2017 AHA/ACC guideline, the prevalence of HTN in Venezuela is approximately half of the adult population and associated with relatively poor BP control.",2019,"The age-standardized prevalence was 55.4% in men and 49.0% in women (p < 0.001), 17.5% and 12.7% higher, respectively, compared with the JNC7 criteria.","['adults with uncontrolled blood pressure (BP) using AHA/ACC criteria', '3,420 adults from July 2014 to January 2017, with a response rate of 77.3']",['EVESCAM'],"['age-standardized prevalence', 'mean of two BP measurements', 'uncontrolled BP', 'antihypertensive medication']","[{'cui': 'C0001675', 'cui_str': 'Adult'}, {'cui': 'C0205318', 'cui_str': 'Uncontrolled'}, {'cui': 'C0005823', 'cui_str': 'Blood pressure'}, {'cui': 'C0002458', 'cui_str': 'American Heart Association'}, {'cui': 'C0557806', 'cui_str': 'College'}, {'cui': 'C0007189', 'cui_str': 'Cardiology'}, {'cui': 'C0243161', 'cui_str': 'criteria'}]",[],"[{'cui': 'C0001779', 'cui_str': 'Age'}, {'cui': 'C0033105', 'cui_str': 'Prevalence'}, {'cui': 'C0444504', 'cui_str': 'Mean'}, {'cui': 'C0005824', 'cui_str': 'Blood pressure taking'}, {'cui': 'C0205318', 'cui_str': 'Uncontrolled'}, {'cui': 'C0005823', 'cui_str': 'Blood pressure'}, {'cui': 'C0003364', 'cui_str': 'Hypotensive agent'}, {'cui': 'C0013227', 'cui_str': 'Pharmaceutical / biologic product'}]",3420.0,0.0425789,"The age-standardized prevalence was 55.4% in men and 49.0% in women (p < 0.001), 17.5% and 12.7% higher, respectively, compared with the JNC7 criteria.","[{'ForeName': 'Juan', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'González-Rivas', 'Affiliation': 'The Andes Clinic of Cardio-Metabolic Studies, Mérida, VE.'}, {'ForeName': 'Jeffrey', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Mechanick', 'Affiliation': 'Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, New York, US.'}, {'ForeName': 'Maritza', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Duran', 'Affiliation': 'Avila Clinic, VE.'}, {'ForeName': 'Eunice', 'Initials': 'E', 'LastName': 'Ugel', 'Affiliation': 'School of Medicine, University Centro-Occidental ""Lisandro Alvarado"", Barquisimeto, VE.'}, {'ForeName': 'María', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Marulanda', 'Affiliation': 'Endocrine Associates of Florida, Orlando, Florida, US.'}, {'ForeName': 'Ramfis', 'Initials': 'R', 'LastName': 'Nieto-Martínez', 'Affiliation': 'South Florida Veterans Affairs Foundation for Research & Education and Geriatric Research, Education, and Clinical Center (GRECC), Miami VA Healthcare System, Miami, Florida, US.'}]",Annals of global health,['10.5334/aogh.2346']
1398,31218759,The assessment of cognitive-behavioral therapy skills in patients diagnosed with health anxiety: Development and pilot study on an observer-based rating scale.,"Cognitive-behavioral therapy is a highly effective treatment of health anxiety, but it remains unclear through which mechanisms treatment effects prevail. Some evidence suggests that patients acquire skills-understood as techniques helping them reach therapy goals-through psychotherapy. In the current study, an observer-based rating scale for the skills assessment of patients with health anxiety (SAPH) was developed and validated in a pilot study. Based on 177 videotapes, four independent raters evaluated the frequency of skills acquired during cognitive and exposure therapy among 66 patients diagnosed with health anxiety with the SAPH. Predictive validity was evaluated by the Yale-Brown Obsessive-Compulsive Scale for Hypochondriasis. The SAPH demonstrated good interrater reliability (ICC (1,2) = .88, p < .001, 95% CI [.81, .92]) and internal consistency (α = .94). Although patient skills did not significantly increase during three sessions, they significantly predicted a reduction in health anxiety symptoms at the end of treatment (R 2 = .35). Patients' skills are highly important within the treatment of health anxiety. By providing external ratings of patients' skills with good psychometric properties, our pilot data suggest that the SAPH may complement current tools for the assessment of skills, specifically in targeting health anxiety.",2019,"The SAPH demonstrated good interrater reliability (ICC (1,2) = .88, p < .001, 95% CI [.81, .92]) and internal consistency (α = .94).","['patients with health anxiety (SAPH', 'patients diagnosed with health anxiety', '66 patients diagnosed with health anxiety with the SAPH']",['Cognitive-behavioral therapy'],"['Predictive validity', 'health anxiety symptoms', 'good interrater reliability', 'cognitive-behavioral therapy skills', 'Yale-Brown Obsessive-Compulsive Scale']","[{'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patient'}, {'cui': 'C0018684', 'cui_str': 'Health'}, {'cui': 'C0003467', 'cui_str': 'Anxiety'}, {'cui': 'C0031809', 'cui_str': 'Physical examination'}, {'cui': 'C0011900', 'cui_str': 'Diagnosis'}]","[{'cui': 'C0009244', 'cui_str': 'Cognitive therapy'}]","[{'cui': 'C0042283', 'cui_str': 'Validity (Epidemiology)'}, {'cui': 'C0018684', 'cui_str': 'Health'}, {'cui': 'C0860603', 'cui_str': 'Anxiety symptoms'}, {'cui': 'C0038848', 'cui_str': 'Supplies'}, {'cui': 'C0035035', 'cui_str': 'Reliability (Epidemiology)'}, {'cui': 'C0009244', 'cui_str': 'Cognitive therapy'}, {'cui': 'C0155339', 'cui_str': ""Brown's tendon sheath syndrome""}, {'cui': 'C0175659', 'cui_str': 'Scale'}]",,0.0223358,"The SAPH demonstrated good interrater reliability (ICC (1,2) = .88, p < .001, 95% CI [.81, .92]) and internal consistency (α = .94).","[{'ForeName': 'Destina Sevde', 'Initials': 'DS', 'LastName': 'Ay', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Psychology, Clinical Psychology and Psychotherapy, University of Potsdam, Potsdam, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Franziska', 'Initials': 'F', 'LastName': 'Kühne', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Psychology, Clinical Psychology and Psychotherapy, University of Potsdam, Potsdam, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Florian', 'Initials': 'F', 'LastName': 'Weck', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Psychology, Clinical Psychology and Psychotherapy, University of Potsdam, Potsdam, Germany.'}]",Clinical psychology & psychotherapy,['10.1002/cpp.2387']
1399,30370532,Prolonged exercise training improves the acute type II muscle fibre satellite cell response in healthy older men.,"KEY POINTS
Skeletal muscle stem cells, termed satellite cells, play a crucial role in repair and remodelling of muscle in response to exercise An age-related decline in satellite cell number and/or function has been hypothesized to be a key factor in the development of sarcopenia and/or the blunted muscle fibre adaptive response to prolonged exercise training in older persons We report that performing prolonged exercise training improves the acute type II muscle fibre satellite cell response following a single bout of resistance exercise in older men. The observed improvement in muscle satellite function is associated with an increase in muscle fibre capillarization following exercise training suggesting a possible functional link between capillarization and satellite cell function.
ABSTRACT
Age-related type II muscle fibre atrophy is accompanied by a fibre type-specific decline in satellite cell number and function. Exercise training restores satellite cell quantity in older adults; however, whether it can restore the impaired satellite cell response to exercise in older adults remains unknown. Therefore we assessed the acute satellite cell response to a single exercise session before and after prolonged exercise training in older men. Fourteen older men (74 ± 8 years) participated in a 12-week exercise training programme (resistance exercise performed twice per week, high intensity interval training once per week). Before and after training, percutaneous biopsies from the vastus lateralis muscle were taken prior to and following 24 and 48 h of post-exercise recovery. Muscle fibre characteristics were evaluated by immunohistochemistry and mRNA expression by RT-PCR. Whereas no changes were observed in type II muscle fibres, type I muscle fibre satellite cell content increased significantly at 24 and 48 h after a single bout of resistance exercise before the exercise training programme (P < 0.01). Following the exercise training programme, both type I and type II muscle fibre satellite cell content increased significantly at 24 and 48 h after a single bout of resistance exercise (P < 0.05). The greater acute increase in type II muscle fibre satellite cell content at 24 h post-exercise recovery after training was correlated with an increase in type II muscle fibre capillarization (r = 0.671, P = 0.012). We show that the acute muscle satellite cell response following exercise can be improved by prolonged exercise training in older men.",2019,"Following the exercise training programme, both type I and type II muscle fibre satellite cell content increased significantly at 24 and 48 h after a single bout of resistance exercise (P < 0.05).","['older adults', 'older men', 'healthy older men', 'older persons', 'Fourteen older men (74\xa0±\xa08\xa0years']","['Prolonged exercise training', 'Exercise training', 'prolonged exercise training', 'resistance exercise', 'exercise training programme (resistance exercise performed twice per week, high intensity interval training']","['acute type II muscle fibre satellite cell response', 'acute satellite cell response', 'muscle satellite function', 'type II muscle fibre capillarization', 'type II muscle fibres, type I muscle fibre satellite cell content']","[{'cui': 'C0001792', 'cui_str': 'Elderly person'}, {'cui': 'C0580836', 'cui_str': 'Old'}, {'cui': 'C0025266', 'cui_str': 'Man'}, {'cui': 'C0027361', 'cui_str': 'Person'}, {'cui': 'C3715152', 'cui_str': '14'}, {'cui': 'C0439234', 'cui_str': 'year'}]","[{'cui': 'C0439590', 'cui_str': 'Prolonged'}, {'cui': 'C4279936', 'cui_str': 'Exercise Training'}, {'cui': 'C0162535', 'cui_str': 'Electrical Resistance'}, {'cui': 'C0015259', 'cui_str': 'Exercise'}, {'cui': 'C0884358', 'cui_str': 'Performed'}, {'cui': 'C0556985', 'cui_str': 'Twice weekly'}, {'cui': 'C4277545', 'cui_str': 'High-intensity interval training'}]","[{'cui': 'C0205178', 'cui_str': 'Acuteness'}, {'cui': 'C0441730', 'cui_str': 'Type 2'}, {'cui': 'C0026845', 'cui_str': 'Muscle tissue'}, {'cui': 'C0225326', 'cui_str': 'Fiber'}, {'cui': 'C0205868', 'cui_str': 'Perineuronal satellite cell'}, {'cui': 'C0036238', 'cui_str': 'Associated Viruses'}, {'cui': 'C0031843', 'cui_str': 'PH'}, {'cui': 'C0441729', 'cui_str': 'Type 1'}, {'cui': 'C0423896', 'cui_str': 'Feeling content'}]",,0.0292499,"Following the exercise training programme, both type I and type II muscle fibre satellite cell content increased significantly at 24 and 48 h after a single bout of resistance exercise (P < 0.05).","[{'ForeName': 'Tim', 'Initials': 'T', 'LastName': 'Snijders', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Kinesiology and Medical Physics & Applied Radiation Sciences, McMaster University, Hamilton, Ontario, Canada, L8S 4K1.'}, {'ForeName': 'Joshua P', 'Initials': 'JP', 'LastName': 'Nederveen', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Kinesiology and Medical Physics & Applied Radiation Sciences, McMaster University, Hamilton, Ontario, Canada, L8S 4K1.'}, {'ForeName': 'Kirsten E', 'Initials': 'KE', 'LastName': 'Bell', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Kinesiology and Medical Physics & Applied Radiation Sciences, McMaster University, Hamilton, Ontario, Canada, L8S 4K1.'}, {'ForeName': 'Sean W', 'Initials': 'SW', 'LastName': 'Lau', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Kinesiology and Medical Physics & Applied Radiation Sciences, McMaster University, Hamilton, Ontario, Canada, L8S 4K1.'}, {'ForeName': 'Nicole', 'Initials': 'N', 'LastName': 'Mazara', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Kinesiology and Medical Physics & Applied Radiation Sciences, McMaster University, Hamilton, Ontario, Canada, L8S 4K1.'}, {'ForeName': 'Dinesh A', 'Initials': 'DA', 'LastName': 'Kumbhare', 'Affiliation': 'Toronto Rehabilitation Institute, University of Toronto, Toronto, Ontario, Canada, M5G 2A2.'}, {'ForeName': 'Stuart M', 'Initials': 'SM', 'LastName': 'Phillips', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Kinesiology and Medical Physics & Applied Radiation Sciences, McMaster University, Hamilton, Ontario, Canada, L8S 4K1.'}, {'ForeName': 'Gianni', 'Initials': 'G', 'LastName': 'Parise', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Kinesiology and Medical Physics & Applied Radiation Sciences, McMaster University, Hamilton, Ontario, Canada, L8S 4K1.'}]",The Journal of physiology,['10.1113/JP276260']
1400,31641729,Red Blood Cell Omega-3 Fatty Acid Composition and Psychotropic Drug Use in Older Adults: Results from the MAPT Study.,"Low docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) concentration has been associated with the development of some psychiatric disorders.
OBJECTIVES
to assess the association between red blood cell (RBC) DHA-EPA concentration and psychotropic drug use in older adults and between the 1-year change in RBC DHA-EPA and psychotropic drug use at 12 months.
DESIGN
secondary analysis of multicenter, randomized controlled trial testing multidomain intervention and/or n-3 PUFA supplement on cognitive function (MAPT study).
SETTING
France, 2008-2014.
PARTICIPANTS
1680 participants ≥70 years, community-dwelling were included.
MEASUREMENTS
Psychotropic drug use was self-reported during medical interviews and assessments. RBC n-3 PUFA concentration was defined by % of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) among total fatty acids. Logistic regressions models controlling for age, sex, education, depression risk and intervention group were used.
RESULTS
1594 participants had baseline DHA-EPA concentration available (mean age=75.5±4.5 years, 65% females). At baseline, participants with DHA-EPA ≤4.82% (lowest quartile) reported higher prevalence of use of overall psychotropic drugs (34.0% vs 24.4%; aOR=1.33, 95%CI=[1.03-1.72]), anxiolytic/hypnotic drugs (25.0% vs 18.2%; aOR=1.42, 95%CI=[1.07-1.89]), and antidepressants (18.3% vs 13.5%; aOR=1.25, 95%CI=[0.93-1.72]) than participants with higher DHA-EPA. Participants who experienced an increase in DHA-EPA from baseline were less likely to use a psychotropic drug at 12 months than participants with no change or a decrease (aOR=0.72, 95%CI=[0.55-0.96]).
CONCLUSION

1401,31641732,Effect of a Resistance Training Program on Sarcopenia and Functionality of the Older Adults Living in a Nursing Home.,"IMPORTANCE
There are currently few evidence about resistance training as a treatment for sarcopenia in the nursing home setting.
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the effect of a resistance training program on the sarcopenia and functionality of the elderly living in a nursing home.
DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS
A blinded longitudinal intervention study conducted in elderly people living in a nursing home from August to November 2016. Participants included a convenience sample of 19 older adults.
INTERVENTION
We prescribed a resistance exercise program three times a week for 12 weeks. The scheme was two to three sets with eight to 15 repetitions per exercise.
MAIN OUTCOME AND MEASURES
The primary outcome was an increase in muscle strength and an improvement in physical performance of the elderly people living in nursing homes.
RESULTS
19 older adults between 77.7 ± 8.9 years old, completed the 12 week resistance exercise program achieving a significant increase in muscle strength to 5.7 Kg (p = 0.0001) as well as nutritional intake for the first four weeks (p = 0.001); we found an improvement in physical performance (p = 0.0001) in balance (p = 0.0001), chair stand (p = 0.036) and gait speed (p = 0.0001). Of the 47.4% that reached sarcopenia degree, in the end it was 33.3%. A relationship with nutritional status (p = 0.004) and age (p = 0.019) was found with the initial and final handgrip strength (p = 0.041).
CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE
The resistance training program improves the functionality (muscle strength and physical performance), with the benefit of the decrease in severe sarcopenia.",2019,"The primary outcome was an increase in muscle strength and an improvement in physical performance of the elderly people living in nursing homes.

1403,32411031,Effect of Electroacupuncture and Counseling on Sub-Threshold Depression: A Study Protocol for a Multicenter Randomized Controlled Trial.,"Background
Sub-threshold depression is common and could impair function, as well as increase the risk of developing major depression. Despite evidence of efficacy for electroacupuncture (EA) and counseling in the treatment of sub-threshold depression, the sample size is insufficient and the level of evidence remains low. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of sub-threshold depression treatments by comparing the treatment effects among EA, counseling, and combination therapy, as well as to further study their mechanism.
Methods
This study is a multicenter, randomized, single blind clinical trial that will be conducted in settings at four clinical centers in China. The randomized controlled trial (RCT) will examine the effectiveness of EA intervention, compared with counseling and combination therapy. A total of 138 sub-threshold depression patients (18 to 55 years of age with Beck Depression Inventory (BDI-II) score ≥ 14 points and Hamilton Depression Scale (HAMD-17) score: 7 points ≤ HAMD total score <17 points) will be recruited. The participants will be randomly assigned to receive the above treatments. The interventions will be delivered over a 6-week period (EA: 3 times a week for 6 weeks; 30 min a session. Counseling: once a week for 6 weeks; 50-60 min a session). The primary outcome measure will be the HAMD-17; BDI-II. The secondary outcome measures will be: Self-rating Depression Scale (SDS), Self-rating Anxiety Scale (SAS), and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI). The assessments will occur at baseline, 2, 4, and 6 weeks and a follow-up period. Recruitment will commence in March 2020 and is anticipated to occur over a 2-year period.
Discussion
This study intends to conduct a multicenter randomized controlled trial to compare the effectiveness among EA, counseling and the combined therapy in the treatment of patients with sub-threshold depression, and to further study the mechanisms of effect.

1404,32411007,"Effect of Resistance Training Under Normobaric Hypoxia on Physical Performance, Hematological Parameters, and Body Composition in Young and Older People.","Background
Resistance training (RT) under hypoxic conditions has been used to increase muscular performance under normoxic conditions in young people. However, the effects of RT and thus of RT under hypoxia (RTH) could also be valuable for parameters of physical capacity and body composition across the lifespan. Therefore, we compared the effects of low- to moderate-load RTH with matched designed RT on muscular strength capacity, cardiopulmonary capacity, hematological adaptation, and body composition in young and older people.
Methods
In a pre-post randomized, blinded, and controlled experiment, 42 young (18 to 30 year) and 42 older (60 to 75 year) participants were randomly assigned to RTH or RT (RTH young, RT young, RTH old, RT old). Both groups performed eight resistance exercises (25-40% of 1RM, 3 × 15 repetitions) four times a week over 5 weeks. The intensity of hypoxic air for the RTH was administered individually in regards to the oxygen saturation of the blood (SpO 2 ): ∼80-85%. Changes and differences in maximal isokinetic strength, cardiopulmonary capacity, total hemoglobin mass (tHb), blood volume (BV), fat free mass (FFM), and fat mass (FM) were determined pre-post, and the acute reaction of erythropoietin (EPO) was tested during the intervention.
Results
In all parameters, no significant pre-post differences in mean changes (time × group effects p = 0.120 to 1.000) were found between RTH and RT within the age groups. However, within the four groups, isolated significant improvements ( p < 0.050) of the single groups were observed regarding the muscular strength of the legs and the cardiopulmonary capacity.
Discussion
Although the hypoxic dose and the exercise variables of the resistance training in this study were based on the current recommendations of RTH, the RTH design used had no superior effect on the tested parameters in young and older people in comparison to the matched designed RT under normoxia after a 5-week intervention period. Based on previous RTH-studies as well as the knowledge about RT in general, it can be assumed that the expected higher effects of RTH can may be achieved by changing exercise variables (e.g., longer intervention period, higher loads).",2020,"In all parameters, no significant pre-post differences in mean changes (time × group effects p = 0.120 to 1.000) were found between RTH and RT within the age groups.","['young people', 'young and older people', 'Young and Older People', '42 young (18 to 30 year) and 42 older (60 to 75 year) participants']","['Resistance Training Under Normobaric Hypoxia', '\n\n\nResistance training (RT', 'RTH or RT']","['muscular strength of the legs and the cardiopulmonary capacity', 'acute reaction of erythropoietin (EPO', 'Physical Performance, Hematological Parameters, and Body Composition', 'maximal isokinetic strength, cardiopulmonary capacity, total hemoglobin mass (tHb), blood volume (BV), fat free mass (FFM), and fat mass (FM', 'muscular strength capacity, cardiopulmonary capacity, hematological adaptation, and body composition']","[{'cui': 'C0332239', 'cui_str': 'Young'}, {'cui': 'C0027361', 'cui_str': 'Person'}, {'cui': 'C0580836', 'cui_str': 'Old'}, {'cui': 'C0439234', 'cui_str': 'year'}]","[{'cui': 'C0872279', 'cui_str': 'Strength Training'}, {'cui': 'C0242184', 'cui_str': 'Hypoxia'}]","[{'cui': 'C0442025', 'cui_str': 'Muscular'}, {'cui': 'C0023216', 'cui_str': 'Lower limb structure'}, {'cui': 'C0205178', 'cui_str': 'Acuteness'}, {'cui': 'C0443286', 'cui_str': 'Reaction'}, {'cui': 'C0014822', 'cui_str': 'erythropoietin'}, {'cui': 'C0031809', 'cui_str': 'Physical examination'}, {'cui': 'C0449381', 'cui_str': 'Observation parameter'}, {'cui': 'C0005885', 'cui_str': 'Body composition'}, {'cui': 'C0205289', 'cui_str': 'Maximal'}, {'cui': 'C0475206', 'cui_str': '% total hemoglobin'}, {'cui': 'C0577559', 'cui_str': 'Mass of body structure'}, {'cui': 'C0005850', 'cui_str': 'Blood volume'}, {'cui': 'C0424679', 'cui_str': 'Fat-free mass'}, {'cui': 'C0015677', 'cui_str': 'Fat'}, {'cui': 'C0000934', 'cui_str': 'Acclimation'}]",,0.012693,"In all parameters, no significant pre-post differences in mean changes (time × group effects p = 0.120 to 1.000) were found between RTH and RT within the age groups.","[{'ForeName': 'Alexander', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Törpel', 'Affiliation': 'Department Health and Physical Activity, Institute III Sport Science, Otto von Guericke University Magdeburg, Magdeburg, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Beate', 'Initials': 'B', 'LastName': 'Peter', 'Affiliation': 'Department Health and Physical Activity, Institute III Sport Science, Otto von Guericke University Magdeburg, Magdeburg, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Lutz', 'Initials': 'L', 'LastName': 'Schega', 'Affiliation': 'Department Health and Physical Activity, Institute III Sport Science, Otto von Guericke University Magdeburg, Magdeburg, Germany.'}]",Frontiers in physiology,['10.3389/fphys.2020.00335']
1405,32411014,Ischemic Preconditioning Did Not Affect Central and Peripheral Factors of Performance Fatigability After Submaximal Isometric Exercise.,"The present study was designed to provide further insight into the mechanistic basis for the improved exercise tolerance following ischemic preconditioning (IPC) by investigating key-determinants of performance and perceived fatigability. Using a randomized, counterbalanced, single-blind, sham-controlled, crossover design, 16 males performed an isometric time-to-exhaustion test with the knee extensors at 20% maximal voluntary torque (MVT) after an IPC and a sham treatment (SHAM). Those who improved their time-to-exhaustion following IPC performed a time-matched IPC trial corresponding to the exercise duration of SHAM (IPC tm ). Neuromuscular function was assessed before and after exercise termination during each condition (IPC, IPC tm , and SHAM) to analyze the impact of IPC on performance fatigability and its central and peripheral determinants. Muscle oxygenation (SmO 2 ), muscle activity, and perceptual responses (effort and muscle pain) were recorded during exercise. Performance fatigability as well as its central and peripheral determinants were quantified as percentage pre-post changes in MVT (ΔMVT) as well as voluntary activation (ΔVA) and quadriceps twitch torque evoked by paired electrical stimuli at 100 and 10 Hz (ΔPS100 and ΔPS10⋅PS100 -1 ratio), respectively. Time-to-exhaustion, performance fatigability, its determinants, muscle activity, SmO 2 , and perceptual responses during exercise were not different between IPC and SHAM. However, six participants improved their performance by >10% following IPC (299 ± 71 s) compared to SHAM (253 ± 66 s, d = 3.23). The time-matched comparisons (IPC tm vs. SHAM) indicated that performance fatigability, its determinants, and SmO 2 were not affected, while effort perception seemed to be lower (η p 2 = 0.495) in those who improved their time-to-exhaustion. The longer time-to-exhaustion following IPC seemed to be associated with a lower effort perception (η p 2 = 0.380) and larger impairments in neuromuscular function, i.e., larger ΔMVT, ΔVA, and ΔPS10⋅PS100 -1 ratio ( d = 0.71, 1.0, 0.92, respectively). IPC did neither affect exercise tolerance, performance fatigability, as well as its central and peripheral determinants, nor muscle activity, SmO 2 , and perceptual responses during submaximal isometric exercise. However, IPC seemed to have an ergogenic effect in a few subjects, which might have resulted from a lower effort perception during exercise. These findings support the assumption that there are 'responders' and 'non-responders' to IPC.",2020,"IPC did neither affect exercise tolerance, performance fatigability, as well as its central and peripheral determinants, nor muscle activity, SmO 2 , and perceptual responses during submaximal isometric exercise.",['16 males performed an'],"['Submaximal Isometric Exercise', 'isometric time-to-exhaustion test with the knee extensors at 20% maximal voluntary torque (MVT) after an IPC and a sham treatment (SHAM', 'IPC', 'Ischemic Preconditioning']","['Fatigability', 'Muscle oxygenation (SmO 2 ), muscle activity, and perceptual responses (effort and muscle pain', 'larger ΔMVT, ΔVA, and ΔPS10⋅PS100 -1 ratio', 'longer time-to-exhaustion', 'voluntary activation (ΔVA) and quadriceps twitch torque evoked by paired electrical stimuli', 'Central and Peripheral Factors of Performance', 'Neuromuscular function', 'exercise tolerance, performance fatigability, as well as its central and peripheral determinants, nor muscle activity, SmO 2 , and perceptual responses', 'Time-to-exhaustion, performance fatigability, its determinants, muscle activity, SmO 2 , and perceptual responses during exercise']","[{'cui': 'C0086582', 'cui_str': 'Male'}, {'cui': 'C0884358', 'cui_str': 'Performed'}]","[{'cui': 'C0022206', 'cui_str': 'Isometric exercise'}, {'cui': 'C0040223', 'cui_str': 'Time'}, {'cui': 'C0392674', 'cui_str': 'Exhaustion'}, {'cui': 'C0003647', 'cui_str': 'Aptitude Tests'}, {'cui': 'C0022742', 'cui_str': 'Bone structure of knee'}, {'cui': 'C0205289', 'cui_str': 'Maximal'}, {'cui': 'C0439656', 'cui_str': 'Voluntary'}, {'cui': 'C0318082', 'cui_str': 'Ruminococcus torques'}, {'cui': 'C0376466', 'cui_str': 'Ischemic Pre-Conditioning'}, {'cui': 'C0032042', 'cui_str': 'Sham Treatment'}]","[{'cui': 'C0231230', 'cui_str': 'Fatigability'}, {'cui': 'C0026845', 'cui_str': 'Muscle tissue'}, {'cui': 'C0231940', 'cui_str': 'Alveolar ventilation (V)'}, {'cui': 'C0574401', 'cui_str': 'Samoan language'}, {'cui': 'C0026606', 'cui_str': 'Physical activity'}, {'cui': 'C0015264', 'cui_str': 'Exertion'}, {'cui': 'C0231528', 'cui_str': 'Muscle pain'}, {'cui': 'C0549177', 'cui_str': 'Large'}, {'cui': 'C0456603', 'cui_str': 'Ratio'}, {'cui': 'C0205166', 'cui_str': 'Long'}, {'cui': 'C0040223', 'cui_str': 'Time'}, {'cui': 'C0392674', 'cui_str': 'Exhaustion'}, {'cui': 'C0439656', 'cui_str': 'Voluntary'}, {'cui': 'C0231530', 'cui_str': 'Muscle twitch'}, {'cui': 'C0318082', 'cui_str': 'Ruminococcus torques'}, {'cui': 'C1444748', 'cui_str': 'Evoked'}, {'cui': 'C0013790', 'cui_str': 'Electricity'}, {'cui': 'C0234402', 'cui_str': 'Stimulus'}, {'cui': 'C0205099', 'cui_str': 'Central'}, {'cui': 'C0205100', 'cui_str': 'Peripheral'}, {'cui': 'C0031843', 'cui_str': 'PH'}, {'cui': 'C0162521', 'cui_str': 'Exercise tolerance'}, {'cui': 'C0002838', 'cui_str': 'Andorra'}, {'cui': 'C0028423', 'cui_str': 'Norway'}, {'cui': 'C0587107', 'cui_str': 'During exercise'}]",16.0,0.157523,"IPC did neither affect exercise tolerance, performance fatigability, as well as its central and peripheral determinants, nor muscle activity, SmO 2 , and perceptual responses during submaximal isometric exercise.","[{'ForeName': 'Martin', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Behrens', 'Affiliation': 'Institute of Sport Science, University of Rostock, Rostock, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Volker', 'Initials': 'V', 'LastName': 'Zschorlich', 'Affiliation': 'Institute of Sport Science, University of Rostock, Rostock, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Thomas', 'Initials': 'T', 'LastName': 'Mittlmeier', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Traumatology, Hand and Reconstructive Surgery, University Medicine Rostock, Rostock, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Sven', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Bruhn', 'Affiliation': 'Institute of Sport Science, University of Rostock, Rostock, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Florian', 'Initials': 'F', 'LastName': 'Husmann', 'Affiliation': 'Institute of Sport Science, University of Rostock, Rostock, Germany.'}]",Frontiers in physiology,['10.3389/fphys.2020.00371']
1406,31646707,Is plasma renin activity associated with worse outcomes in acute heart failure? A secondary analysis from the BLAST-AHF trial.,"AIMS
Neurohormonal activation characterizes chronic heart failure (HF) and is a well-established therapeutic target. Neurohormonal activation may also play a key role in acute HF (AHF). We aim to describe the association between plasma renin activity (PRA) and three AHF outcomes: (i) worsening HF or death through day 5 of hospitalization; (ii) HF rehospitalization or death through day 30; and (iii) all-cause death through day 30.
METHODS AND RESULTS
A secondary analysis of the BLAST-AHF trial was performed. Eligible patients had a history of HF, elevated natriuretic peptides, signs and symptoms of HF, systolic blood pressure >120 mmHg, and an estimated glomerular filtration rate between 20-75 mL/min/1.73 m 2 . The primary trial was neutral, with no differential effect of study drug by PRA levels. Baseline PRA levels were grouped into tertiles. Adjusted Cox proportional hazard model determined the association of PRA levels with outcomes (α set at P < 0.05). Of 618 randomized patients, 578 (93.5%) had a baseline PRA. PRA was modestly, but significantly, associated with each outcome without adjustment [worsening HF or death through day 5: hazard ratio (HR) 1.11, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.01-1.23, P = 0.04; HF rehospitalization or death through day 30: HR 1.13, 95% CI 1.02-1.26, P = 0.02; all-cause death through day 30: HR 1.18, 95% CI 1.02-1.37, P = 0.03]. After multivariable adjustment, PRA was only significantly associated with HF rehospitalization or death through day 30 (HR 1.15, 95% CI 1.01-1.32, P = 0.04).
CONCLUSION
Baseline PRA levels are associated with increased risk for the composite of 30-day HF rehospitalization or death in patients with AHF.",2019,Baseline PRA levels are associated with increased risk for the composite of 30-day HF rehospitalization or death in patients with AHF.,"['Eligible patients had a history of HF, elevated natriuretic peptides, signs and symptoms of HF, systolic blood pressure >120\u2009mmHg, and an estimated glomerular filtration rate between 20-75\u2009mL/min/1.73\u2009m 2 ', 'patients with AHF', '618 randomized patients, 578 (93.5%) had a baseline PRA']",[],"['PRA levels', 'HF rehospitalization or death', 'plasma renin activity (PRA) and three AHF outcomes: (i) worsening HF or death through day 5 of hospitalization;

1407,31932571,The Effect of a Social Skills Program on Violent Behaviors in Children Aged 60~72 Months.,"PURPOSE
To determine the effects of a child and parent program on developing social skills for preventing violent behaviors in children aged 60~72 months through a specially developed pre and posttest, control group, quasi-experimental study.
METHODS
A social skills development program based on Gardner's Multiple Intelligence Theory was used. The data were collected using the Social Skills Assessment Scale (SSAS), a Chart to Monitor Verbal and Behavioral Violence in Children, the Parental Attitude Scale and the Parent Interview Form. This quasi-experimental study that included a pretest, posttest, and control group had a sample comprising 67 children and parents, with 36 in the experimental group, and 31 in the control group.
RESULTS
Over a six-month period, while the social skill scores of the children in the experimental and control groups increased, their violent behaviors decreased ( p <.050). Increase in social skill scores and decrease in violent behaviors were higher in the experimental than in the control group children ( p <.050). The parents in the experimental group stated that they had started to empathize with their children, using ""I"" language, and applied rules more consistently after the program.
CONCLUSION
This program was successful in preventing violent behaviors in children through the development of social skills. Hence, it can be effectively implemented through a teacher/nurse collaboration.",2019,Increase in social skill scores and decrease in violent behaviors were higher in the experimental than in the control group children ( p <.050).,"['67 children and parents, with 36 in the experimental group, and 31 in the control group', 'children aged 60~72 months through a specially developed pre and posttest, control group, quasi-experimental study', 'Children Aged 60~72 Months']","['child and parent program', 'Social Skills Program']","['social skill scores', 'Social Skills Assessment Scale (SSAS), a Chart to Monitor Verbal and Behavioral Violence in Children, the Parental Attitude Scale and the Parent Interview Form', 'Violent Behaviors', 'violent behaviors']","[{'cui': 'C0008059', 'cui_str': 'Child'}, {'cui': 'C0085092', 'cui_str': 'Parenting'}, {'cui': 'C0439745', 'cui_str': 'Grouped (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0009932', 'cui_str': 'Control Groups'}, {'cui': 'C0001792', 'cui_str': 'Elderly'}, {'cui': 'C0439231', 'cui_str': 'month (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0740175', 'cui_str': 'Before values (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C2985410', 'cui_str': 'Clinical Trials, Nonrandomized'}]","[{'cui': 'C0008059', 'cui_str': 'Child'}, {'cui': 'C0085092', 'cui_str': 'Parenting'}, {'cui': 'C2728259', 'cui_str': 'Program'}]","[{'cui': 'C0679005', 'cui_str': 'Interpersonal Skills'}, {'cui': 'C0449820', 'cui_str': 'Scores (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0450973', 'cui_str': 'Assessment scales (assessment scale)'}, {'cui': 'C0684240', 'cui_str': 'Chart'}, {'cui': 'C0181904', 'cui_str': 'Monitor, device (physical object)'}, {'cui': 'C0439824', 'cui_str': 'Verbal (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0042693', 'cui_str': 'Violence'}, {'cui': 'C0008059', 'cui_str': 'Child'}, {'cui': 'C0004271', 'cui_str': 'Attitude'}, {'cui': 'C0222045'}, {'cui': 'C0085092', 'cui_str': 'Parenting'}, {'cui': 'C0935630', 'cui_str': 'Interview'}, {'cui': 'C0376315', 'cui_str': 'Form'}, {'cui': 'C0424323', 'cui_str': 'Physical aggression (finding)'}]",67.0,0.0153299,Increase in social skill scores and decrease in violent behaviors were higher in the experimental than in the control group children ( p <.050).,"[{'ForeName': 'Tülay', 'Initials': 'T', 'LastName': 'Kuzlu Ayyildiz', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Pediatric Nursing, Faculty of Health Sciences, Zonguldak Bülent Ecevit University, Zonguldak, Turkey. tkayyildiz@beun.edu.tr.'}, {'ForeName': 'Güler', 'Initials': 'G', 'LastName': 'Cimete', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Midwery, Faculty of Health Sciences, Üsküdar University, Istanbul, Turkey.'}]",Journal of Korean Academy of Nursing,['10.4040/jkan.2019.49.6.771']

Method s : Fourteen healthy older people (69 ± 3.6 yrs) used diaphragmatic breathing (DB), Triflo II (TF), and a water pressure threshold device (BreatheMAX; BM) in a randomized and balanced crossover design. Outcome measures were inspiratory flow and pressure, inspiratory time (Ti), tidal volume (Vt), and breathing frequency. Results : Inspiratory flow with TF was significantly faster than DB and BM (p < 0.001: 0.96 ± 0.1; 0.43 ± 0.20 and 0.28 ± 0.1 L.s -1 , respectively) and pressures greater (p < 0.001: -1.3 ± 0.6, -5.5 ± 1.2 and -2.8 ± 3.6 cm H 2 O).

Neladenoson bialanate is a partial adenosine A1 receptor agonist with demonstrated beneficial effects on cardiac function in animal models. We aimed to assess the dose-response effect of neladenoson bialanate on cardiac structure and function, clinical outcome, and safety in patients with heart failure (HF) with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF).
METHODS AND RESULTS
PANTHEON was a dose-finding, phase IIb, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial conducted in 92 centres in 11 countries including 462 patients with chronic HFrEF, randomized to once daily oral dose of neladenoson bialanate (5, 10, 20, 30, and 40 mg) or placebo. The primary endpoints were change from baseline to 20 weeks in left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) (echocardiography) and in N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP). Mean age of the patients was 67 years, 17% were female, mean LVEF was 28%, mean NT-proBNP was 2085 ng/L. After 20 weeks of treatment, there was no dose-effect of neladenoson bialanate on changes in NT-proBNP or LVEF (primary endpoints). No effect of neladenoson bialanate was found on left ventricular volumes, high-sensitivity troponin T, or cardiovascular mortality, HF hospitalization, and urgent visits for HF (secondary endpoints). There was a dose-dependent increase in creatinine and cystatin C, and a dose-dependent decrease in estimated glomerular filtration rate and heart rate.
CONCLUSIONS
In patients with chronic HFrEF, treatment with neladenoson bialanate was not associated with dose-dependent favourable effects on cardiac structure and function, cardiac risk markers, or clinical outcome but was associated with a dose-dependent decrease in renal function.

1411,31634648,UCBG 2-04: Long-term results of the PACS 04 trial evaluating adjuvant epirubicin plus docetaxel in node-positive breast cancer and trastuzumab in the human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-positive subgroup.,"PURPOSE
We conducted a double-randomised phase III trial to evaluate a concomitant taxane-anthracycline regimen in node-positive breast cancer and the efficacy of trastuzumab in the human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive subpopulation.
METHODS
A total of 3010 patients with node-positive breast cancer were randomly assigned to receive 6 cycles of 500 mg/m 2 of fluorouracil, 100 mg/m 2 of epirubicin and 500 mg/m 2 of cyclophosphamide (FEC) or 75 mg/m 2 of epirubicin and 75 mg/m 2 of docetaxel (ED). Patients with HER2-positive tumours were secondary randomly assigned to either trastuzumab or observation. The primary end-point was disease-free survival (DFS) in the two chemotherapy arms.
RESULTS
After a 115-month median follow-up, DFS was not significantly better in the ED arm (DFS: 70%, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 67-72) than in the FEC arm (DFS: 68%, 95% CI: 65-70; hazard ratio [HR] = 0.88, 95% CI: 0.77-1.01; p = 0.064). The OS was not different between FEC (OS: 80%, 95% CI: 78-83) and ED (OS: 81%, 95% CI: 79-83); HR = 0.97, 95% CI: 0.81-1.16; p = 0.729). ED appeared more toxic. In the 528 HER2-positive subset, there was trend for a higher DFS, in the intention-to-treat population, in the trastuzumab arm (DFS: 68%, 95% CI: 61-74) than in the observation arm (DFS: 60%, 95% CI: 54-66; HR = 0.77, 95% CI: 0.57-1.03; p = 0.079). In the per-protocol population, DFS was significantly higher in the trastuzumab arm (DFS: 70%, 95% CI: 63-76) than in the observation arm (DFS: 59%, 95% CI: 53-65; HR = 0.69, 95% CI: 0.51-0.94; p = 0.0156). The OS was not different between these 2 arms.
CONCLUSION
This study did not show superiority of the concomitant anthracycline-taxane arm which was more toxic in high-risk node-positive breast cancer patients. Long-term results of the HER2-positive subpopulation are in line with those of the other adjuvant trastuzumab trials but quantitatively less pronounced mostly because of lack of power.",2019,"The OS was not different between FEC (OS: 80%, 95% CI: 78-83) and ED (OS: 81%, 95% CI: 79-83); HR = ","['Patients with HER2-positive tumours', 'high-risk node-positive breast cancer patients', 'node-positive breast cancer', '3010 patients with node-positive breast cancer', 'node-positive breast cancer and trastuzumab in the human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-positive subgroup']","['trastuzumab or observation', 'fluorouracil,\xa0100\xa0mg/m 2 of epirubicin and\xa0500\xa0mg/m 2 of cyclophosphamide (FEC) or 75', 'concomitant taxane-anthracycline regimen', 'trastuzumab', 'epirubicin plus docetaxel', 'concomitant anthracycline-taxane', 'epirubicin and 75\xa0mg/m 2 of docetaxel (ED']","['disease-free survival (DFS', 'DFS', 'toxic']","[{'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C1446409', 'cui_str': 'Positive (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0027651', 'cui_str': 'Neoplasia'}, {'cui': 'C4319571', 'cui_str': 'High risk (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C3160887', 'cui_str': 'Node-positive breast cancer'}, {'cui': 'C0728747', 'cui_str': 'trastuzumab'}, {'cui': 'C3496586', 'cui_str': 'epidermal growth factor receptor 2, human'}]","[{'cui': 'C0728747', 'cui_str': 'trastuzumab'}, {'cui': 'C0302523', 'cui_str': 'Observation'}, {'cui': 'C0016360', 'cui_str': 'Fluorouracil'}, {'cui': 'C1704407', 'cui_str': '100 (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0014582', 'cui_str': 'Epirubicin'}, {'cui': 'C3816747', 'cui_str': 'Five hundred'}, {'cui': 'C0010583', 'cui_str': 'Cyclophosphamide'}, {'cui': 'C0521115', 'cui_str': 'Simultaneous (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0796419', 'cui_str': 'Taxanes'}, {'cui': 'C0282564', 'cui_str': 'Anthracyclines'}, {'cui': 'C0332287', 'cui_str': 'With (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0246415', 'cui_str': 'docetaxel'}]","[{'cui': 'C0242793', 'cui_str': 'Disease-Free Survival'}]",3010.0,0.18372,"The OS was not different between FEC (OS: 80%, 95% CI: 78-83) and ED (OS: 81%, 95% CI: 79-83); HR = ","[{'ForeName': 'Véronique', 'Initials': 'V', 'LastName': ""D'Hondt"", 'Affiliation': 'Medical Oncology Department, Institut du Cancer, IRCM, INSERM, Univ Montpellier, France.

1412,32411025,Memory Retrieval-Extinction Combined With Virtual Reality Reducing Drug Craving for Methamphetamine: Study Protocol for a Randomized Controlled Trial.,"Background
Relapse, often precipitated by drug-associated cues that evoke craving, is a key problem in the treatment of methamphetamine use disorder (MUD). Drug-associated memories play a major role in the maintenance of relapse. Extinction training is a common method for decreasing drug craving by suppressing drug-associated memories. However, the effects are often not permanent, which is evident in form of spontaneous recovery or renewal of cue-elicited responses. Based on memory reconsolidation theory, the retrieval-extinction (R-E) paradigm may be more effective in decreasing spontaneous recovery or renewal responses than extinction. After the original memory reactivated to a labile state, extinction will be introduced within the reconsolidation window, thereby updating drug-associated memories. However, there are still some controversial results, which suggest that the reactivation of drug-associated memories and the 10 min-6 h of limited time window are two main elements in the R-E protocol. Virtual reality (VR) is supposed to promote memory reactivation by providing vivid drug-related stimuli when compared with movies.
Objective
The aim of this study is to examine the effectiveness of R-E training combined with VR on reducing spontaneous recovery or renewal of cue-elicited responses, in comparison to extinction, R-E training provided outside the time window of 6 h and R-E training retrieved using videos, in methamphetamine abusers.
Methods
The study is a parallel matched controlled study including 95 participants with MUD. Participants will be randomly assigned to either a R-10 min-E group (methamphetamine-related cues retrieval in VR followed by extinction after 10 min) or a NR-10 min-E group (neutral cues retrieval in VR followed by extinction after 10 min) or a R-6 h-E group (methamphetamine-related cues retrieval in VR followed by extinction after 6 h) or a RV-10 min-E group (methamphetamine-related cues retrieval in videos followed by extinction after 10 min). Cue-evoked craving and reactivity will be assessed at pre-test and at 1 day, 1 week, 1 month, and 6-month post-tests.
Discussion
To our knowledge, this study will probably be the first study to examine the efficacy of R-E training combined with VR to reduce cue-evoked responses in people with MUD. This innovative non-pharmacological intervention targeting drug-associated memories may provide significant clinical implications for reducing relapse, providing the study confirms its efficacy.

1413,31640924,Feasibility and effect of a physical activity counselling session with or without provision of an activity tracker on maintenance of physical activity in women with breast cancer - A randomised controlled trial.,"OBJECTIVES
The SAFE-Maintain study sought to evaluate the effect and acceptability of a physical activity counselling (PAC) session, versus a PAC session plus provision of a Fitbit (Charge HR®; PAC+F), on maintenance of physical activity levels 12 weeks following participation in a supervised exercise intervention.
DESIGN
Fifty-two women with stage II+breast cancer who had recently (within the previous 7 days) completed a 12-week supervised exercise program were randomised to the PAC or PAC+F group.
METHODS
Physical activity levels, including weekly minutes of total physical activity (min/week), daily step count (steps/day), and weekly minutes of moderate to vigorous physical activity (MVPA, min/week), were assessed using the Active Australia survey and Actigraph® GT3X+ accelerometers. Self-reported outcomes were assessed at baseline and 12-week follow-up, while objectively-measured outcomes were only available at 12-week follow-up.
RESULTS
Compared with the PAC group, the PAC+F group had higher self-reported MVPA and self-reported total activity (between-group mean difference: 78.2 [95% CI=-8.3, 164.9] min/week, p<0.01, and 171.9 [95% CI=46.1, 297.8] min/week, p<0.01, respectively) at 12-week follow-up. Higher objectively-assessed MVPA (p=0.03) and steps/day (p=0.07) at 12-week follow-up was also observed in the PAC+F group compared with the PAC group. Most (>80%) of the PAC+F group reported high levels of Fitbit use and considered the device to be beneficial for physical activity maintenance.
CONCLUSIONS
Findings suggest that activity trackers show promise as an effective, feasible and acceptable approach to support physical activity maintenance following completion of a supervised exercise intervention.

1414,31834062,"Online Family Problem-Solving Therapy (F-PST) for Executive and Behavioral Dysfunction After Traumatic Brain Injury in Adolescents: A Randomized, Multicenter, Comparative Effectiveness Clinical Trial.","OBJECTIVE
To examine the comparative effectiveness of 3 modes of family problem-solving therapy (F-PST): therapist-guided online, self-guided online, and face-to-face.
SETTING
Four children's hospitals and a general hospital with pediatric commitment.
PARTICIPANTS
A total of 150 adolescents aged 14 to 18 years, previously hospitalized with traumatic brain injury (TBI), and evidence of behavior problems at enrollment.
DESIGN
Multicenter, randomized clinical trial.
MAIN MEASURES
Behavior Rating Inventory of Executive Function (BRIEF) Global Executive Composite (GEC), Behavior Regulation Index, and Metacognition Index, and Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ) Total at baseline and 6 and 9 months later.
RESULTS
Mixed-model intention-to-treat analyses of comparative effectiveness failed to reveal statistically significant differences among treatment groups. At 6 months, parent BRIEF-GEC improved for the therapist-guided and self-guided, online groups. Effects remained significant and increased in magnitude at 9 months for the self-guided online group. Scores for the Self-guided online group significantly improved from baseline to 9 months on the SDQ Total.

1415,32411024,"Feasibility and Acceptability of a Student-Led Lifestyle (Diet and Exercise) Intervention Within a Residential Rehabilitation Setting for People With Severe Mental Illness, GO HEART (Group Occupation, Health, Exercise And Rehabilitation Treatment).","Purpose
People with severe mental illness (SMI) experience poor physical health and premature mortality, contributed significantly by modifiable lifestyle risk factors such as poor nutrition, low cardiorespiratory fitness, and physical inactivity. Lifestyle interventions can reduce cardiometabolic risk and confer a range of other positive mental and physical health benefits. We assessed the feasibility, acceptability, safety, and preliminary effectiveness of a lifestyle (combined dietary and exercise) intervention lead by senior exercise and dietetics students in a residential mental health rehabilitation setting.
Design
Single arm, prospective study evaluating outcomes pre and post a 10-week dietary and exercise intervention.
Method
People with SMI from three residential rehabilitation units participated in a mixed aerobic and resistance training exercise intervention three times per week that was combined with a dietary intervention (six individual and group sessions). Primary outcome considerations were feasibility (recruitment, retention, and participation rates), acceptability, and adverse events. Secondary outcomes were preliminary effectiveness; (functional exercise capacity, volume of exercise, and metabolic markers), psychiatric symptoms, quality of life, and attitudes to exercise.
Results
Forty-two participants were recruited (92% primary diagnosis of schizophrenia). Intervention feasibility was supported by high levels of recruitment (68%), retention (77%), and participation (70% exercise, 65% diet sessions); and the absence of serious adverse events. Significant improvements in functional exercise capacity, volume of exercise, general psychiatric symptoms, and negative psychotic symptoms occurred. Anthropometric and metabolic blood markers did not change. While the intervention was acceptable to participants, motivation for and perceived value of exercise reduced over 10 weeks.
Conclusions
A brief pragmatic student-led lifestyle intervention integrated into usual mental health care was feasible, acceptable, safe, and scalable across two additional mental health residential rehabilitation sites, and resulted in physical and mental health improvements. Increased frequency of dietary sessions and length of dietary intervention may improve metabolic outcomes in the future. People with SMI living in residential rehabilitation units should have access to lifestyle programs to address modifiable lifestyle risk factors. While this brief intervention was feasible and acceptable, this study highlights some of the challenges associated with maintaining motivation for healthy lifestyles for people with SMI. Longer term investigation of real-world lifestyle interventions is warranted, together with additional interventions that may support people with SMI to sustain motivation to address lifestyle factors.

1416,31642350,Editor's Choice: Consistency tendency and the theory of planned behavior: a randomized controlled crossover trial in a physical activity context.,"Objective: This study examined the effects of consistency tendency on the predictive power of the theory of planned behavior (TPB) in relation to physical activity behavior. Methods: In this randomized controlled cross-over trial, we recruited 770 undergraduate students from Indonesia who were randomly assigned into two groups. Participants completed physical activity versions of TPB measures at T1 (baseline) and T2 (post 1 week), and the International Physical Activity Questionnaire at T3 (post 1 month). At T1 and T2, the TPB questions were either presented in ensemble-order (i.e., consistency tendency supressed) or alternate-order (i.e., consistency tendency facilitated). Results: The parameter estimates of the model (CFI > .92, TLI > .90, SRMR < .08, RMSEA < .08) aligned with the tenets of TPB. As compared to ensemble-order, a TPB measured in alternate-order yielded stronger cross-sectional relationships, but this pattern did not appear in the prospective relationships in TPB (i.e., intention/perceived behavioral control and behavior). Conclusions: Consistency tendency inflated the factor correlations of cross-sectionally measured TPB variables, but the inflation was not observed in the prospective prediction of behavior. Health psychology questionnaires with items presented in ensemble order may represent a viable means of reducing the confounding effect of consistency tendency.",2020,"As compared to ensemble-order, a TPB measured in alternate-order yielded stronger cross-sectional relationships, but this pattern did not appear in the prospective relationships in TPB (i.e., intention/perceived behavioral control and behavior).

We sought to assess dopamine release following alcohol exposure in relation to AUD risk.
METHODS
Three groups were enrolled: participants with AUD (n = 15) and healthy participants with family history negative (n = 34) or positive (n = 16) for AUD. Participants consumed a placebo (n = 65) or alcohol (n = 63) beverage in counterbalanced order before positron emission tomography scanning (128 scans). Binding potential (BP ND ) in the two drink conditions and the percent change in BP ND between conditions were evaluated across striatal subregions. Subjective effects of beverage consumption were rated. Effects of group, drink order, and sex were evaluated.
RESULTS
Alcohol resulted in greater dopamine release than did placebo in the ventral striatum (p < .001). There were no main effects of group, drink order, or sex on ventral striatum BP ND or percent change in BP ND . However, there was a drink order-by-group interaction (p = .02) whereby family history-positive participants who received placebo first had both lower placebo BP ND and less difference between placebo and alcohol BP ND than all other groups, consistent with expectation of alcohol powerfully evoking dopamine release in this group. Subjective responses showed the same order-by-group interaction.
CONCLUSIONS
Hyper-responsivity of the dopaminergic system in family history-positive participants to expectation of alcohol may contribute to the expression of familial risk for AUD.",2018,"RESULTS

1420,31588356,"Protocol for the electroencephalography guidance of anesthesia to alleviate geriatric syndromes (ENGAGES-Canada) study: A pragmatic, randomized clinical trial.","Background: There is some evidence that electroencephalography guidance of general anesthesia can decrease postoperative delirium after non-cardiac surgery. There is limited evidence in this regard for cardiac surgery. A suppressed electroencephalogram pattern, occurring with deep anesthesia, is associated with increased incidence of postoperative delirium (POD) and death. However, it is not yet clear whether this electroencephalographic pattern reflects an underlying vulnerability associated with increased incidence of delirium and mortality, or whether it is a modifiable risk factor for these adverse outcomes. Methods: The E lectroe n cephalography G uidance of A nesthesia to Alleviate Ge riatric S yndromes ( ENGAGES-Canada ) is an ongoing pragmatic 1200 patient trial at four Canadian sites. The study compares the effect of two anesthetic management approaches on the incidence of POD after cardiac surgery. One approach is based on current standard anesthetic practice and the other on electroencephalography guidance to reduce POD. In the guided arm, clinicians are encouraged to decrease anesthetic administration, primarily if there is electroencephalogram suppression and secondarily if the EEG index is lower than the manufacturers recommended value (bispectral index (BIS) or WAVcns below 40 or Patient State Index below 25). The aim in the guided group is to administer the minimum concentration of anesthetic considered safe for individual patients. The primary outcome of the study is the incidence of POD, detected using the confusion assessment method or the confusion assessment method for the intensive care unit; coupled with structured delirium chart review. Secondary outcomes include unexpected intraoperative movement, awareness, length of intensive care unit and hospital stay, delirium severity and duration, quality of life, falls, and predictors and outcomes of perioperative distress and dissociation. Discussion: The ENGAGES-Canada trial will help to clarify whether or not using the electroencephalogram to guide anesthetic administration during cardiac surgery decreases the incidence, severity, and duration of POD.

1421,29775119,Effects of exercise in combination with autologous bone marrow stem cell transplantation for patients with type 1 diabetes.,"Stem cell therapy is a promising approach for the treatment of type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1D). Previous studies recommended regular exercise for the control of T1D. Experimental studies showed that a combination of stem cells and exercise yielded a better outcome. Yet, the effect of exercise programs following stem cell transplantation in patients with T1D has not been investigated. Thus, the current study aimed to examine the effect of a combined exercise program on measures of glycemic control in patients with T1D who received autologous bone marrow stem cell transplantation (ABMSCT). Thirty patients with controlled T1D were assigned into two equal groups. Both groups underwent ABMSCT and received insulin therapy and a diabetic diet regime. Only the exercise group followed the combined exercise program. Outcome measures of glycemic control (i.e. fasting blood glucose level [FBG], post-prandial blood glucose level [PPG], HbA1c, daily insulin dosage, and C-peptide levels) were tested before and after a 3-month rehabilitation period. There were significant ( p < 0.05) decreases in all outcome measures except C-peptides after ABMSCT compared with before in both groups. Moreover, there was a significant decrease in the mean value of HbA1c in the exercise group compared with the control group after rehabilitation. Overall, this study strengthens the idea that adding exercise to ABMSCT is important to help control diabetes in patients with T1D.",2019,There were significant (p < 0.05) decreases in all outcome measures except C-peptides after ABMSCT compared with before in both groups.,"['type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1D', 'patients with T1D who received autologous bone marrow stem cell transplantation (ABMSCT', 'patients with type 1 diabetes', 'Thirty patients with controlled T1D', 'patients with T1D']","['Stem cell therapy', 'insulin therapy and a diabetic diet regime', 'autologous bone marrow stem cell transplantation', 'exercise', 'combined exercise program']","['glycemic control (i.e. fasting blood glucose level [FBG], post-prandial blood glucose level [PPG], HbA1c, daily insulin dosage, and C-peptide levels', 'mean value of HbA1c']","[{'cui': 'C0011854', 'cui_str': 'Diabetes Mellitus, Type 1'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C0439859', 'cui_str': 'Autologous (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0005953', 'cui_str': 'Bone Marrow'}, {'cui': 'C1504389', 'cui_str': 'Stem Cell Transplantation'}, {'cui': 'C0332307', 'cui_str': 'Type - attribute'}, {'cui': 'C3816446', 'cui_str': '30'}, {'cui': 'C2587213', 'cui_str': 'Controlled (qualifier value)'}]","[{'cui': 'C0038250', 'cui_str': 'Mother Cells'}, {'cui': 'C0087111', 'cui_str': 'Therapy'}, {'cui': 'C0202098', 'cui_str': 'Insulin measurement (procedure)'}, {'cui': 'C0011878', 'cui_str': 'Diabetic Diet'}, {'cui': 'C0439859', 'cui_str': 'Autologous (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0005953', 'cui_str': 'Bone Marrow'}, {'cui': 'C1504389', 'cui_str': 'Stem Cell Transplantation'}, {'cui': 'C0015259', 'cui_str': 'Physical Activity'}, {'cui': 'C0336789', 'cui_str': 'Combine'}, {'cui': 'C2728259', 'cui_str': 'Program'}]","[{'cui': 'C2587213', 'cui_str': 'Controlled (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0428568', 'cui_str': 'Fasting blood glucose measurement'}, {'cui': 'C0428569', 'cui_str': 'Post-prandial blood glucose measurement'}, {'cui': 'C0456079', 'cui_str': 'Level (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0202054', 'cui_str': 'HbA1C'}, {'cui': 'C0332173', 'cui_str': 'Daily (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0202098', 'cui_str': 'Insulin measurement (procedure)'}, {'cui': 'C0178602', 'cui_str': 'Dosages (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0202100', 'cui_str': 'Insulin C-peptide measurement (procedure)'}, {'cui': 'C0444504', 'cui_str': 'Mean (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C1273875', 'cui_str': 'Values (community)'}]",30.0,0.0233285,There were significant (p < 0.05) decreases in all outcome measures except C-peptides after ABMSCT compared with before in both groups.,"[{'ForeName': 'Marwa Taher', 'Initials': 'MT', 'LastName': 'Mohamed', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Basic Science, Faculty of Physical Therapy, Cairo University, Giza, Egypt.'}, {'ForeName': 'Eman Ahmed', 'Initials': 'EA', 'LastName': 'Embaby', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Basic Science, Faculty of Physical Therapy, Cairo University, Giza, Egypt.'}, {'ForeName': 'Awatif', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Labib', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Basic Science, Faculty of Physical Therapy, Cairo University, Giza, Egypt.'}, {'ForeName': 'Mohammed', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'El-Husseiny', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Endocrinology, Wadi El-Neel Hospital, Cairo, Egypt.'}, {'ForeName': 'Hazem', 'Initials': 'H', 'LastName': 'Khamis', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Cardiology, 6th October University, Giza, Egypt.'}, {'ForeName': 'Ahmed', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'El-Demery', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Medical Biocemistry, 6th October University, Elmehawar Almarkazy, Giza, Egypt.'}, {'ForeName': 'Mohamed Mounir', 'Initials': 'MM', 'LastName': 'Shoukry', 'Affiliation': 'Faculty of Pharmacy, MTI University, Cairo, Egypt.'}]",Physiotherapy theory and practice,['10.1080/09593985.2018.1474511']

1423,31538590,Docosahexaenoic Acid and Arachidonic Acid Supplementation and Sleep in Toddlers Born Preterm: Secondary Analysis of a Randomized Clinical Trial.,"STUDY OBJECTIVES
This secondary analysis characterized sleep patterns for toddlers born preterm and tested effects of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA)+ arachidonic acid (AA) supplementation on children's caregiver-reported sleep. Exploratory analyses tested whether child sex, birth weight, and caregiver depressive symptomatology were moderators of the treatment effect.
METHODS
Omega Tots was a single-site 180-day randomized (1:1), double-blinded, placebo-controlled trial. Children (n = 377) were age 10 to 16 months at enrollment, born at less than 35 weeks' gestation, assigned to 180 days of daily 200 mg DHA + 200 mg AA supplementation or placebo (400 mg corn oil), and followed after the trial ended to age 26 to 32 months. Caregivers completed a sociodemographic profile and questionnaires about their depressive symptomatology (Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale) and the child's sleep (Brief Infant Sleep Questionnaire). Analyses compared changes in sleep between the DHA+AA and placebo groups, controlling for baseline scores. Exploratory post hoc subgroup analyses were conducted.
RESULTS
Eighty-one percent (n tx = 156; n placebo = 150) of children had 180-day trial outcome data; 68% (n tx = 134; n placebo = 122) had postintervention outcome data. Differences in change between the DHA+AA and placebo groups after 180 days of supplementation were not statistically significant for the entire cohort. Male children (difference in nocturnal sleep change = 0.44, effect size = 0.26, P = .04; sleep problems odds ratio = 0.36, 95% confidence interval = 0.15, 0.82) and children of depressed caregivers (difference in nocturnal sleep change = 1.07, effect size = 0.65, P = .006; difference in total sleep change = 1.10, effect size = 0.50, P = .04) assigned to the treatment group showed improvements in sleep, compared to placebo.
CONCLUSIONS
Although there is no evidence of an overall effect of DHA+AA supplementation on child sleep, exploratory post hoc analyses identified important subgroups of children born preterm who may benefit. Future research including larger samples is warranted.

1424,31538598,Eye-Blink Parameters Detect On-Road Track-Driving Impairment Following Severe Sleep Deprivation.,"STUDY OBJECTIVES
Drowsiness leads to 20% of fatal road crashes, while inability to assess drowsiness has hampered drowsiness interventions. This study examined the accuracy of eye-blink parameters for detecting drowsiness related driving impairment in real time.
METHODS
Twelve participants undertook two sessions of 2-hour track-driving in an instrumented vehicle following a normal night's sleep or 32 to 34 hours of extended wake in a randomized crossover design. Eye-blink parameters and lane excursion events were monitored continuously.
RESULTS
Sleep deprivation increased the rates of out-of-lane driving events and early drive terminations. Episodes of prolonged eyelid closures, blink duration, the ratio of amplitude to velocity of eyelid closure, and John's Drowsiness Score (JDS, a composite score) were also increased following sleep deprivation. A time-on-task (drive duration) effect was evident for out-of-lane events rate and most eye-blink parameters after sleep deprivation. The JDS demonstrated the strongest association with the odds of out-of-lane events in the same minute, whereas measures of blink duration and prolonged eye closure were stronger indicators of risk for out-of-lane events over longer periods of 5 minutes and 15 minutes, respectively. Eye-blink parameters also achieved moderate accuracies (specificities from 70.12% to 84.15% at a sensitivity of 50%) for detecting out-of-lane events in the same minute, with stronger associations over longer timeframes of 5 minutes to 15 minutes.
CONCLUSIONS
Eyelid closure parameters are useful tools for monitoring and predicting drowsiness-related driving impairment (out-of-lane events) that could be utilized for monitoring drowsiness and assessing the efficacy of drowsiness interventions.

1425,31506292,Effects of Selonsertib in Patients with Diabetic Kidney Disease.,"BACKGROUND
Apoptosis signal-regulating kinase 1 (ASK1) activation in glomerular and tubular cells resulting from oxidative stress may drive kidney disease progression. Findings in animal models identified selonsertib, a selective ASK1 inhibitor, as a potential therapeutic agent.
METHODS
In a phase 2 trial evaluating selonsertib's safety and efficacy in adults with type 2 diabetes and treatment-refractory moderate-to-advanced diabetic kidney disease, we randomly assigned 333 adults in a 1:1:1:1 allocation to selonsertib (oral daily doses of 2, 6, or 18 mg) or placebo. Primary outcome was change from baseline eGFR at 48 weeks.
RESULTS
Selonsertib appeared safe, with no dose-dependent adverse effects over 48 weeks. Although mean eGFR for selonsertib and placebo groups did not differ significantly at 48 weeks, acute effects related to inhibition of creatinine secretion by selonsertib confounded eGFR differences at 48 weeks. Because of this unanticipated effect, we used piecewise linear regression, finding two dose-dependent effects: an acute and more pronounced eGFR decline from 0 to 4 weeks (creatinine secretion effect) and an attenuated eGFR decline between 4 and 48 weeks (therapeutic effect) with higher doses of selonsertib. A post hoc analysis (excluding data for 20 patients from two sites with Good Clinical Practice compliance-related issues) found that between 4 and 48 weeks, rate of eGFR decline was reduced 71% for the 18-mg group relative to placebo (difference 3.11±1.53 ml/min per 1.73 m 2 annualized over 1 year; 95% confidence interval, 0.10-6.13; nominal P =0.043). Effects on urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio did not differ between selonsertib and placebo.
CONCLUSIONS
Although the trial did not meet its primary endpoint, exploratory post hoc analyses suggest that selonsertib may slow diabetic kidney disease progression.",2019,"Effects on urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio did not differ between selonsertib and placebo.

1426,31538599,Can the Orexin Antagonist Suvorexant Preserve the Ability to Awaken to Auditory Stimuli While Improving Sleep?,"STUDY OBJECTIVES
The safety profile of the dual orexin receptor antagonists (DORAs) are currently unknown with regard to nocturnal responsivity among people with insomnia. We compared the auditory awakening thresholds (AATs) of the DORA suvorexant (10 and 20 mg) versus placebo in 12 individuals with DSM-5 insomnia.
METHODS
The study used a double-blind, placebo-controlled, three-way crossover design. Participants were randomly assigned to a treatment sequence that included placebo, suvorexant 10 mg, and suvorexant 20 mg. At the time of maximum drug concentration, auditory tones were played during stable stage N2 sleep. Tones increased by 5-decibel (db) increments until the participant awakened. The db at awakening was recorded as the AAT and compared between conditions. The proportion of awakenings higher than 85 db was also compared between conditions. Finally, sensitivity analyses were also conducted using surrounding thresholds (80 db and 90 db).
RESULTS
The mean AAT did not differ significantly between either dose of suvorexant compared to placebo. Moreover, the proportions of individuals who remained asleep at the AAT 85 db cutoff did not differ across conditions. In addition, wake after sleep onset decreased and total sleep time increased in the suvorexant 20 mg condition compared to placebo.
CONCLUSIONS
Suvorexant (10 and 20 mg) preserved the ability to respond to nocturnal stimuli, whereas the 20-mg dose improved the sleep of people with insomnia. This suggests that DORAs such as suvorexant can effectively treat insomnia while allowing patients to awaken to nocturnal stimuli in the environment.

1427,31538602,CPAP and Health-Related Quality of Life in Adults With Coronary Artery Disease and Nonsleepy Obstructive Sleep Apnea in the RICCADSA Trial.,"STUDY OBJECTIVES
To determine the effect of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) treatment on health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in adults with coronary artery disease (CAD) and nonsleepy obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).
METHODS
This was a secondary outcome analysis of the RICCADSA trial, conducted in Sweden between 2005 and 2013. Adults with CAD, nonsleepy OSA (apnea-hypopnea index [AHI] ≥ 15 events/h; Epworth Sleepiness Scale [ESS] score < 10) and complete Short-Form (SF)-36 questionnaires at baseline and after 12 months were included. Patients were randomized to CPAP (n = 102) or no CPAP (n = 104). The primary outcome was the between-group difference in absolute change in the SF-36 components. Within-group changes as well as variables associated with absolute change in the domains in the entire population were also tested.
RESULTS
Mean SF-36 scores were similar at baseline, ranging from 44.9 ± 9.6 to 92.2 ± 15.8 in various domains, and between-group changes from baseline were not statistically significant at 1 year. There was a significant increase in Role physical, Vitality, Role emotional, Mental health and Mental Component Summary (MCS), and a decrease in Bodily pain and General health scores in the CPAP group. The change in Physical Component Summary (PCS) was determined by female sex (beta coefficient -0.19, 95% confidence interval [CI] -7.25 to -0.98, P = .010), baseline AHI (beta coefficient -0.19, 95% CI -0.21 to -0.03, P = .009), CPAP use (h/night) (beta coefficient -0.16, 95% CI -0.93 to -0.06, P = .028), and acute myocardial infarction at baseline (beta coefficient 0.18, 95% CI 0.59 to 5.19, P = .014). Determinants of the change in MCS from baseline were change in the ESS score (beta coefficient -0.14, 95% CI -0.87 to -0.01, P = .054) and change in the Zung Self-rated Depression Scale scores (beta coefficient -0.33, 95% CI -0.58 to -0.24, P < .001).
CONCLUSIONS
Assignment to CPAP treatment compared to no CPAP had no significant effect on HRQoL as measured by the SF-36 in adults with CAD and nonsleepy OSA. Although several components of the SF-36 scores were improved within the CPAP group, CPAP use was associated with a decrease in PCS. The improvement in MCS was determined by the improvement in daytime sleepiness and depressive mood.

1428,29730131,Relationship between mother-infant mutual dyadic responsiveness and premature infant development as measured by the Bayley III at 6 weeks corrected age.,"BACKGROUND
The quality of mother-preterm infant interaction has been identified as a key factor in influencing the infant's later development and language acquisition. The relationship between mother-infant responsiveness and later development may be evident early in infancy, a time period which has been understudied.
AIM
Describe the relationship between mother-infant mutual dyadic responsiveness and premature infant development.
DESIGN
This study employed a secondary analysis of data from the 6-week corrected age (CA) follow-up visit of the Hospital-Home Transition: Optimizing Prematures' Environment (H-HOPE) study, a randomized clinical trial testing the efficacy of a mother- and infant- focused intervention for improving outcomes among premature infants.
SUBJECTS
Premature infants born between 29 and 34 weeks gestational age and their mothers who had social-environmental risks.
OUTCOME MEASURES
At 6-weeks corrected age, a play session was coded for the quality of mutual responsiveness (Dyadic Mutuality Code). Development was assessed via the Bayley Scales of Infant and Toddler Development, 3rd edition.
RESULTS
Of 137 mother-infant dyads, high, medium and low mutual responsiveness was observed for 35.8%, 34.3% and 29.9%, respectively. Overall motor, language and cognitive scores were 115.8 (SD = 8.2), 108.0 (7.7) and 109.3 (7.9). Multivariable linear models showed infants in dyads with high versus low mutual responsiveness had higher scores on the motor (β = 3.07, p = 0.06) and language (β = 4.47, p = 0.006) scales.
CONCLUSION
High mutual responsiveness in mother-premature infant dyads is associated with significantly better language development and marginally better motor development.",2018,"Multivariable linear models showed infants in dyads with high versus low mutual responsiveness had higher scores on the motor (β = 3.07, p = 0.06) and language (β = 4.47, p = 0.006) scales.

1430,31560027,Lower-Extremity Torque Capacity and Physical Function in Mobility-Limited Older Adults.,"OBJECTIVES
Skeletal muscle weakness and an increase in fatigability independently contribute to age-related functional decline. The objective of this study was to examine the combined contribution of these deficiencies (i.e., torque capacity) to physical function, and then to assess the functional implications of progressive resistance training (PRT) mediated-torque capacity improvements in mobility-limited older adults.
DESIGN
Randomized controlled trial.
SETTING
Exercise laboratory on the Health Sciences campus of an urban university.
PARTICIPANTS
Seventy mobility-limited (Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB) ≤9) older adults (~79 yrs).
INTERVENTION
Progressive resistance training or home-based flexibility 3 days/week for 12 weeks.
MEASUREMENTS
Torque capacity was defined as the sum of peak torques from an isokinetic knee extension fatigue test. Relationships between torque capacity and performance-based and patient-reported functional measures before and after PRT were examined using partial correlations adjusted for age, sex, and body mass index.
RESULTS
Torque capacity explained (P<0.05) 10 and 28% of the variance in six-minute walk distance and stair climb time, respectively. PRT-mediated torque capacity improvements were paralleled by increases (P<0.05) in self-reported activity participation (+20%) and advanced lower extremity function (+7%), and associated (P<0.05) with a reduction in activity limitations (r=0.44) and an improved SPPB score (r=0.32).
CONCLUSION
Skeletal muscle torque capacity, a composite of strength and fatigue, may be a proximal determinant of physical function in mobility-limited older individuals. To more closely replicate the musculoskeletal demands of real-life tasks, future studies are encouraged to consider the combined interaction of distinct skeletal muscle faculties to overall functional ability in older adults.",2019,"RESULTS

1431,32411039,The Effect of an Enriched Sport Program on Children's Executive Functions: The ESA Program.,"Purpose
The effects of physical exercise on executive functions (EFs) are well-documented. EFs are involved in daily activities, and their development determines the quality of people's future life, both in terms of mental health and quality of life. The purpose of the current paper is to evaluate the effects of a physical education program, elaborated within the Enriched Sports Activity Program (ESA Program), an Erasmus + Project, on EFs, namely, visuospatial working memory, inhibitory control, cognitive flexibility, and task switching.
Method
Data were collected on November 2017 (t 1 ) and May 2018 (t 2 ). At t 1 , a sample of 357 children from four European countries (Italy, Germany, Lithuania, and Turkey) performed a cognitive test battery made up of Digit Span Forward/Backward, Stroop Task, and Trail Making Test (TMT), whose order was randomized. From November until May, classrooms from the experimental group followed the ESA Program, while classrooms from the control continued with the ordinary physical education class. At t 2 , children from both experimental and control groups performed again the cognitive battery.
Result
The repeated measures ANOVA showed a significant effect of the ESA Program on the TMT B and on Digit Span Backward, but no significant effects were found on Digit Span Forward and Stroop Task.
Conclusion
The introduction of a sport program enriched with cognitive stimuli has beneficial effects for children working memory and cognitive flexibility.",2020,"The repeated measures ANOVA showed a significant effect of the ESA Program on the TMT B and on Digit Span Backward, but no significant effects were found on Digit Span Forward and Stroop Task.

The addition of bevacizumab to chemotherapy improved outcomes for patients with metastatic colon cancer. E5204 was designed to test whether the addition of bevacizumab to mFOLFOX6, following neoadjuvant chemoradiation and definitive surgery, could improve overall survival (OS) in patients with stage II/III adenocarcinoma of the rectum.
SUBJECTS, MATERIALS, AND METHODS
Patients with stage II/III rectal cancer who had completed neoadjuvant 5-fluorouracil-based chemoradiation and had undergone complete resection were enrolled. Patients were randomized to mFOLFOX6 (Arm A) or mFOLFOX6 with bevacizumab (Arm B) administered every 2 weeks for 12 cycles.
RESULTS
E5204 registered only 355 patients (17% of planned accrual goal) as it was terminated prematurely owing to poor accrual. At a median follow-up of 72 months, there was no difference in 5-year overall survival (88.3% vs. 83.7%) or 5-year disease-free survival (71.2% vs. 76.5%) between the two arms. The rate of treatment-related grade ≥ 3 adverse events (AEs) was 68.8% on Arm A and 70.7% on Arm B. Arm B had a higher proportion of patients who discontinued therapy early as a result of AEs and patient withdrawal than did Arm A (32.4% vs. 21.5%, p = .029).The most common grade 3-4 treatment-related AEs were neutropenia, leukopenia, neuropathy, diarrhea (without prior colostomy), and fatigue.
CONCLUSION
At 17% of its planned accrual, E5204 did not meet its primary endpoint. The addition of bevacizumab to FOLFOX6 in the adjuvant setting did not significantly improve OS in patients with stage II/III rectal cancer.
IMPLICATIONS FOR PRACTICE
At 17% of its planned accrual, E5204 was terminated early owing to poor accrual.

1433,32411250,Efficacy of Vitamin E in Methotrexate-Induced Hepatotoxicity in Rheumatoid Arthritis: An Open-Label Case-Control Study.,"Objective
To examine the efficacy of vitamin E in methotrexate- (MTX-) induced transaminitis in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA).
Methods
A case-control study was conducted at a tertiary rheumatology center for 12 months. Patients with RA on MTX and deranged aminotransferases were included. Patients with previous liver diseases, baseline transaminitis before methotrexate initiation, alcohol intake, muscle diseases, under hepatotoxic drugs, and aminotransferases > 3 times the upper normal limit were excluded. The patients were divided into treatment (vitamin E 400 mg bid for 3 months) and control groups (no vitamin E) using a random number table. The dose of MTX was unaltered. Follow-up was done after 3 and 6 months. Independent t -test was done to compare means of two groups. Paired t -test was done to compare differences in mean.
Results
Among 230 patients, 86.5% were female with a mean BMI of 25.9 ± 4.5 kg/m 2 . In the treatment group, SGPT and SGOT at baseline were 73.1 ± 20.4 and 60.2 ± 24.5 IU/L, respectively; at 3-month follow-up 44.6 ± 34.2 and 38.3 ± 20.8 IU/L, respectively; and at 6-month follow-up 40.4 ± 35.7 and 34.2 ± 21.9 IU/L, respectively. In the control group, SGPT and SGOT at baseline were 63.4 ± 15.1 and 46.8 ± 13.7 IU/L, respectively, and at 3-month follow-up 55.8 ± 45.9 and 45.5 ± 30.9 IU/L, respectively. Significant decrease in the level of aminotransferases was seen in the treatment group ( p value < 0.001) and not in the control group ( p values 0.161 and 0.728, respectively). The change in levels of SGPT and SGOT from baseline to 3 months of follow-up was statistically significant in between two study groups ( p values 0.007 and <0.001, respectively). From the control group, 29 patients were crossed over to vitamin E for the next 3 months. SGPT and SGOT decreased from 97.6 ± 44.1 to 46.1 ± 40.9 and 69.3 ± 34.9 to 29.1 ± 11.6 IU/L, respectively ( p values 0.031 and 0.017, respectively).

1434,32411218,A Scoping Review on the Attributes of Cluster Randomized Controlled Trials in Long-Term Care Facilities.,"Cluster randomized trial design, where groups of participants are randomized instead of individual participants, is increasingly being used in long-term care research. The purpose of this review was to determine the characteristics of cluster randomized trials in long-term care facilities. A medical librarian conducted the literature search. Two independent reviewers reviewed each paper. Studies were included if the design was cluster randomized and participants were from long-term care facilities. For each included study, two independent data extractors captured data on study attributes, including: journal, location, year published, author discipline, funding, methodology, number of participants, and intervention target. The literature search yielded 7,679 unique studies, with 195 studies meeting the selection criteria and being included for data extraction. The included studies were published between 1976 and 2017, with 53% of studies published after 2009. The term cluster randomized was in the title of only 45% of the studies. The studies were conducted worldwide; the United States had the largest number of studies (23%), followed by the United Kingdom (18%). Ten percent of studies were published in journals with an impact factor >10. The most frequent discipline of the first and last authors was medicine (34%), followed by nursing (17%). Forty-nine percent of the studies had government funding, while only 20% had medical industry funding. In studies with <1000 residents, 85% of the studies obtained consent from the resident and/or their proxy, while in studies with ≥ 1000 residents, it was 31%. The most frequent intervention targets were infection (13%), falls/fracture (13%), and behavior/physical restraint (13%).

1436,32411054,Impact of Music on Working Memory in Rwanda.,"Previous research shows that listening to pleasant, stimulating and familiar music is likely to improve working memory performance. The benefits of music on cognition have been widely studied in Western populations, but not in other cultures. The purpose of this study was to explore the impact of music on working memory in a non-Western sociocultural context: Rwanda. One hundred and nineteen participants were randomly assigned to a control group (short story) or one of four different musical conditions varying on two dimensions: arousal (relaxing, stimulating) and cultural origin (Western, Rwandan). Working memory was measured using a behavioral task, the n-back paradigm, before and after listening to music (or the short story in the control condition). Unlike in previous studies with Western samples, our results with this Rwandan sample did not show any positive effect of familiar, pleasant and stimulating music on working memory.

1437,32411212,Efficacy of Tamsulosin plus Tadalafil versus Tamsulosin as Medical Expulsive Therapy for Lower Ureteric Stones: A Randomized Controlled Trial.,"Introduction
Urolithiasis is one of the common disorder with which about 1/5 th is found in the ureter, of which 2/3 rd is seen in the lower ureter. Medical expulsive therapy is one of the routine modalities of treatment which uses various drugs acting on the ureter smooth muscle by different mechanism. We aim to compare the efficacy of combination vs. single drug.
Methods
This randomized controlled trial was done in 176 consecutive patients over a period of six months (March 2019 to August 2019) in Department of Urology and Kidney Transplant Surgery, Tribhuvan University Teaching. Participants were divided into two groups (Group A, tamsulosin plus tadalafil, and Group B, tamsulosin) from computer-generated random numbers. Therapy was continued for a maximum of 3 weeks. Stone expulsion rate, time to stone expulsion, analgesic use, number of colic and emergency room visits for pain, early intervention, and adverse effects of drugs were recorded.
Results
Among 176 patients who were enrolled in study, 7 were lost to follow-up, and 5 people required immediate intervention. There was a significant higher stone passage rate in group A than group B (64 vs. 50; P =0.025) and shorter expulsion time (1.66 vs. 2.32 weeks P =0.001) and less number of emergency room visits and colic episodes. No significant side effects were noted during study.

1438,32411082,Remote Ischemic Conditioning for Intracerebral Hemorrhage (RICH-1): Rationale and Study Protocol for a Pilot Open-Label Randomized Controlled Trial.,"Background and rationale: Although many therapies have been investigated for intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), none have succeeded in improving the functional outcomes. Remote ischemic conditioning (RIC) has been proven to promote hematoma resolution and improve neurological outcomes in an ICH model; whether it is safe and feasible in patients with ICH remains unknown. This trial aims to assess the safety, feasibility, and preliminary efficacy of RIC in patients with ICH and to plan for a phase-2 study. Methods: A proof-of-concept, assessor-blinded, pilot open-label randomized controlled trial will be carried out with patients with ICH within 24-48 h of ictus. All participants will be randomly allocated to the intervention group and the control group with a 1:1 ratio ( n = 20) and will be treated with standard managements according to the guidelines. Participants allocated to the intervention group will receive RIC once daily for 7 consecutive days. Cranial computed tomography examinations will be performed at baseline, and on days 3, 7, and 14. Neurological outcomes will be assessed at baseline, and on days 1 to 14, 30, and 90. The primary outcome to be tested is safety. Secondary tested outcomes include changes of hematoma and perihematomal edema volume, incidence of hematoma expansion, functional outcomes, and frequency of adverse events. Discussions: This study will be the first proof-of-concept randomized controlled trial to ascertain the safety, feasibility, and preliminary efficacy of RIC in patients with ICH, results of which will provide parameters for future studies and provide insights into the treatment of ICH.

1439,29706170,A randomized clinical trial of motivational enhancement therapy for alcohol problems in partner violent men.,"This study examined the efficacy of brief alcohol intervention in the context of community-based treatment for partner violence. In a randomized clinical trial, 228 partner-violent men with hazardous or problem drinking were recruited at three Intimate Partner Violence (IPV) treatment agencies and randomly assigned to receive one of two 4-session alcohol interventions: Motivational Enhancement Therapy (MET: N = 110) or Alcohol Education (AE: N = 118). After completing alcohol intervention, participants received standard agency counseling services for IPV. Participants completed assessments of alcohol use, drug use, and IPV at pre-treatment, post-alcohol intervention, and quarterly follow-ups for 12 months.

1440,31586784,A randomized-controlled trial to assess the effect of ibuprofen on postpartum blood pressure in women with hypertensive disorders of pregnancy.,"OBJECTIVES
To test the hypothesis that ibuprofen is equivalent to acetaminophen in its effect on postpartum blood pressure in women with gestational hypertension or preeclampsia without severe features.
STUDY DESIGN
Single-center randomized, crossover, equivalence trial among women with hypertensive disorders of pregnancy without severe features after vaginal delivery. Participants were assigned in a double-blind fashion to ibuprofen 600 mg or acetaminophen 650 mg every 6 h for 24 h followed by crossover to the other drug. We assessed clinical blood pressures and ambulatory blood pressure monitor measurements. Intention-to-treat analyses were performed using a linear mixed model adjusted for time period.
MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES
The mean difference in systolic blood pressure through 24 h of drug exposure with an equivalence margin of 10 mmHg.
RESULTS
Of 185 screened women, 74 enrolled prior to delivery. Forty-three women remained eligible and were randomized to ibuprofen first (n = 20, 46.5%) or acetaminophen first (n = 23, 53.5%). A total of 37 women (86.0%) received study drug (ibuprofen first n = 19, acetaminophen first n = 18). Most participants were white (91.9%) and had gestational hypertension (86.5%); mean (SD) age was 31.0 (6.5) years. The mean adjusted difference in systolic blood pressure was 1.0 mmHg (95% CI, -3.7 to 5.7 mmHg), which was within the equivalence margin. A linear mixed model did not demonstrate a main effect of group assignment, nor did it show an interaction effect with time period.
CONCLUSIONS
Among women with gestational hypertension and preeclampsia without severe features, ibuprofen is an equally safe option as acetaminophen with respect to postpartum blood pressure concerns.",2019,"A linear mixed model did not demonstrate a main effect of group assignment, nor did it show an interaction effect with time period.

1441,32411262,Assessment of the Effects of Inspiratory Muscle Training (IMT) and Aerobic Training on the Quality of Life of Patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease.,"Background
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a major cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of inspiratory muscle training (IMT) and aerobic exercise on health-related quality of life of patients with COPD.
Materials and Methods
This randomized controlled clinical trial was conducted on 60 patients with moderate to severe COPD, who were referred to Imam Hossein Hospital of Tehran, Iran in 2016. The patients were randomly assigned to four groups and treated for eight weeks. Group 1 (n=16) participated in 16 sessions of IMT (15 minutes per session), group 2 (n=14) performed aerobic exercises twice a week (40 minutes per session), group 3 (n=15) performed IMT and aerobic exercises, and group 4 (n=15) received no intervention, except for routine treatments (control). Quality of life was evaluated based on the Saint George's Respiratory Questionnaire (SGRQ) at baseline, week 4, and week 8 after the intervention.
Results
After eight weeks, all four groups experienced a significant improvement in their quality of life (P<0.05), and group 3 (IMT and aerobic exercise) showed the greatest improvement. However, quality of life improvement in group 4 (control) was less than the other three groups (P<0.05).
Conclusion
Aerobic exercise and IMT were more effective than routine protocols in improving the quality of life of COPD patients. Furthermore, short-term IMT plus aerobic exercise had the greatest impact on improving the health-related quality of life of COPD patients and could be used in the management of these patients.",2019,"After eight weeks, all four groups experienced a significant improvement in their quality of life (P<0.05), and group 3 (IMT and aerobic exercise) showed the greatest improvement.","['patients with COPD', '60 patients with moderate to severe COPD, who were referred to Imam Hossein Hospital of Tehran, Iran in 2016', '\n\n\nChronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD', 'Patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease']","['Inspiratory Muscle Training (IMT) and Aerobic Training', 'inspiratory muscle training (IMT) and aerobic exercise', 'IMT and aerobic exercises, and group 4 (n=15) received no intervention, except for routine treatments (control', 'Aerobic exercise and IMT', 'aerobic exercises', 'IMT']","['quality of life', 'Quality of Life', 'health-related quality of life', 'quality of life improvement', 'Quality of life', ""Saint George's Respiratory Questionnaire (SGRQ""]","[{'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patient'}, {'cui': 'C0024117', 'cui_str': 'Chronic obstructive lung disease'}, {'cui': 'C1299393', 'cui_str': 'Moderate to severe'}, {'cui': 'C1691010', 'cui_str': 'Referral placed'}, {'cui': 'C0521321', 'cui_str': 'Imam'}, {'cui': 'C0019994', 'cui_str': 'Hospitals'}, {'cui': 'C0022065', 'cui_str': 'Iran'}]","[{'cui': 'C0454511', 'cui_str': 'Inspiratory muscle training'}, {'cui': 'C0040607', 'cui_str': 'Training Programs'}, {'cui': 'C0001701', 'cui_str': 'Aerobic exercises'}, {'cui': 'C0441876', 'cui_str': 'Group 4'}, {'cui': 'C0184661', 'cui_str': 'Procedure'}, {'cui': 'C0332300', 'cui_str': 'Except for'}, {'cui': 'C0205547', 'cui_str': 'Routine'}, {'cui': 'C0039798', 'cui_str': 'therapy'}, {'cui': 'C0009932', 'cui_str': 'Control Groups'}]","[{'cui': 'C0518214', 'cui_str': 'Quality of life satisfaction'}, {'cui': 'C0018684', 'cui_str': 'Health'}, {'cui': 'C0439849', 'cui_str': 'Relationships'}, {'cui': 'C0242823', 'cui_str': 'Saints'}, {'cui': 'C0034394', 'cui_str': 'Questionnaires'}]",60.0,0.0287239,"After eight weeks, all four groups experienced a significant improvement in their quality of life (P<0.05), and group 3 (IMT and aerobic exercise) showed the greatest improvement.","[{'ForeName': 'Amir Hossein', 'Initials': 'AH', 'LastName': 'Abedi Yekta', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Sports Medicine, School of Medicine, Shahid Beheshti University of Medical Sciences, Tehran, Iran.'}, {'ForeName': 'Mehrshad', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Poursaeid Esfahani', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Sports Medicine, School of Medicine, Shahid Beheshti University of Medical Sciences, Tehran, Iran.'}, {'ForeName': 'Shahin', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Salehi', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Sports Medicine, School of Medicine, Shahid Beheshti University of Medical Sciences, Tehran, Iran.'}, {'ForeName': 'Mohammad', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Hassabi', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Sports Medicine, School of Medicine, Shahid Beheshti University of Medical Sciences, Tehran, Iran.'}, {'ForeName': 'Shahrzad', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Khosravi', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Sports Medicine, School of Medicine, Shahid Beheshti University of Medical Sciences, Tehran, Iran.'}, {'ForeName': 'Shahram', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Kharabian', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Sports Medicine, School of Medicine, Shahid Beheshti University of Medical Sciences, Tehran, Iran.'}, {'ForeName': 'Mohammad Reza', 'Initials': 'MR', 'LastName': 'Sohrabi', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Sports Medicine, School of Medicine, Shahid Beheshti University of Medical Sciences, Tehran, Iran.'}, {'ForeName': 'Amir Ali', 'Initials': 'AA', 'LastName': 'Mafi', 'Affiliation': 'Clinical Research Development Center of Loghman Hakim Hospital, Shahid Beheshti University of Medical Sciences, Tehran, Iran.'}, {'ForeName': 'Saeed', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Rezaei', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Sports Medicine, School of Medicine, Shahid Beheshti University of Medical Sciences, Tehran, Iran.'}]",Tanaffos,[]

1443,32038332,Delivery of Family-Based Treatment for Adolescent Anorexia Nervosa in a Public Health Care Setting: Research Versus Non-Research Specialty Care.,"Comparing evidence-based psychotherapy (EBP) to usual care typically demonstrates the superiority of EBPs, although this has not been studied for eating disorders EBPs such as family-based treatment (FBT). The current study set out to examine weight outcomes for adolescents with anorexia nervosa who received FBT through a randomized clinical research trial (RCT, n = 54) or non-research specialty care ( n = 56) at the same specialist pediatric eating disorder service. Weight was recorded throughout outpatient treatment (up to 18 sessions over 6 months), as well as at 6- and 12-month follow-up. Survival curves were used to examine time to weight restoration [greater than 95% median body mass index (mBMI)] as predicted by type of care (RCT vs. non-research specialty care), baseline clinical and demographic characteristics, and their potential interaction. Results did not indicate a significant main effect for type of care, but there was a significant effect for baseline weight ( p = .03), such that weight restoration was achieved faster across both treatment types for those with a higher initial %mBMI. These data suggest that weight restoration achieved in non-research specialty care FBT was largely similar to that achieved in a controlled research trial.

In this study, we aimed to determine the effects of cromolyn on the clinical outcomes and neutrophilic inflammation in patients with resistant cough-variant asthma.
Materials and Methods
Patients with cough-variant asthma, with normal physical examination and spirometry results, were treated by inhaled corticosteroids, antileukotrienes, antibiotics, and proton-pump inhibitors according to the Global Initiative for Asthma (GINA) guidelines. Seventy patients, who were resistant to these treatments, were enrolled in this double-blind randomized clinical trial. After randomization, eligible subjects received a cromolyn metered dose inhaler (MDI) or a placebo MDI, which was completely similar in appearance to the cromolyn inhaler. The primary outcomes included cough and Asthma Control Test (ACT) score.
Results
Based on the findings, cough significantly decreased with cromolyn therapy, compared to the placebo group. Other clinical findings, including dyspnea, sputum production, and nocturnal symptoms, also improved. The ACT score significantly improved to a nearly normal level (23.53±2.25) in the cromolyn group. Moreover, fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) significantly decreased with cromolyn treatment (14±9.31 ppm after treatment vs. 28.88±27.39 before treatment). The neutrophil count significantly decreased in the cromolyn group (from 44±24.2% before the trial to 34.08±16.7% after the trial), while it increased in the placebo group (from 39.67±26.47% to 56.71±27.22%).

1445,31542640,Influence of sex on chemotherapy efficacy and toxicity in oesophagogastric cancer: A pooled analysis of four randomised trials.,"BACKGROUND
Sex contributes to interpatient variability of chemotherapy metabolism and dose response, potentially influencing both efficacy and toxicity; however, comparative data on its effect on oesophagogastric cancer are lacking.
PATIENTS AND METHODS
Data for patients with advanced oesophagogastric cancer randomised to comparable first-line chemotherapy regimens within four United Kingdom prospective trials were pooled, and key demographic and outcome measures were compared between males and females.
RESULTS
A total of 1654 patients were included: 1328 (80.3%) males and 326 (19.7%) females. Female patients were younger, had a significantly higher proportion of gastric tumours as opposed to junctional or oesophageal tumours and experienced significantly higher rates of a number of toxicities including nausea and vomiting, diarrhoea, stomatitis and alopecia. When adjusting for potential confounding factors, the risk of female patients experiencing grade ≥III gastrointestinal toxicity was greater (adjusted odds ratio = 1.50; 95% confidence interval = 1.07-2.12). Females also had a significantly higher incidence of serious adverse events on treatment and received comparatively less cycles of chemotherapy overall than males.

1446,29386413,"Effect of Vitamin D therapy on urinary albumin excretion, renal functions, and plasma renin among patients with diabetic nephropathy: A randomized, double-blind clinical trial.","BACKGROUND
Despite different management strategies, progression of proteinuria occurs in a sizable category of patients with diabetic nephropathy (DN). Increase in serum renin levels induced by the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) may contribute to this. Vitamin D therapy is found to have an inhibitory effect on the RAS. We aimed to study the effects of Vitamin D therapy on renal functions of patients with DN.
METHODS
This was a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study. Patients with DN (urinary albumin [UA] >30 mg/g of creatinine) whose estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was more than 30 mL/min were selected and their plasma renin, parathyroid hormone, serum Vitamin D, serum calcium, serum creatinine, fasting blood sugar were done as baseline measurements. Subjects were randomized into two groups and treatment group was given Vitamin D, 50000 IU (0.25 ml) intramuscularly (IM) monthly for 6 months; control group received distilled water IM. Investigations were repeated after 6 months of therapy.
RESULTS
Of 155 patients invited, 85 were randomly assigned to two groups. After 6 months, mean reduction of UA to creatinine ratio in the treatment and control group was 51.8 mg/g (95% confidence interval [CI]; 66.1--37.5, P ≤ 0.001); 22.4 mg/g (95% CI; -45.7-0.8, P = 0.06), respectively (between group difference P = 0.001). Significant increase in the eGFR observed in the treatment group while eGFR remained unchanged in the control group (P = 0.03 for the between-group difference). Mean reduction in plasma renin in treatment group and control group was 5.85 pg/mL (95% CI; -6.7--4.6) (P < 0.001) and 0.95 pg/mL (95% CI; -1.4--0.14, P = 0.02), respectively.

1447,32411263,Moderate Aerobic Exercise Enhances the Th1/Th2 Ratio in Women with Asthma.,"Background
In this study, we aimed to investigate the effects of aerobic exercise training on the serum IL-4/IFN-γ ratio (Th1/Th2 balance), testosterone/cortisol ratio, levels of cortisol, testosterone, estrogen, and progesterone, and body mass index (BMI) and to determine the relationship between changes in these variables in women with asthma.
Materials and Methods
Twenty-one women with mild to moderate asthma and regular menstrual cycles were selected in this study. Eleven women in the exercise group participated in the aerobic exercise program (60 min/day, three days a week in the evening). Peripheral blood samples were collected before (week 0) and after (week 12) the program. The samples were analyzed to determine the levels of sex hormones and cortisol via chemiluminescence assay, and cytokines were examined by ELISA assay.
Results
The findings showed a significant increase in the Th1/Th2 ratio and a decrease in cortisol and BMI in the exercise group, compared to the control group (P<0.05). There was no significant correlation between changes in cortisol, sex hormones, and BMI and the increase in Th1/Th2 ratio.
Conclusion
The present results suggested that moderate aerobic exercise enhances the Th1/Th2 ratio, independent of changes in steroid hormone level and BMI in women with asthma.",2019,"The present results suggested that moderate aerobic exercise enhances the Th1/Th2 ratio, independent of changes in steroid hormone level and BMI in women with asthma.","['Women with Asthma', 'Eleven women in the exercise group participated in the', 'women with asthma', 'Materials and Methods\n\n\nTwenty-one women with mild to moderate asthma and regular menstrual cycles']","['aerobic exercise program', 'Moderate Aerobic Exercise', 'moderate aerobic exercise', 'aerobic exercise training']","['Th1/Th2 Ratio', 'IL-4/IFN-γ ratio (Th1/Th2 balance), testosterone/cortisol ratio, levels of cortisol, testosterone, estrogen, and progesterone, and body mass index (BMI', 'cortisol, sex hormones, and BMI and the increase in Th1/Th2 ratio', 'cortisol and BMI', 'Th1/Th2 ratio', 'Peripheral blood samples', 'levels of sex hormones and cortisol via chemiluminescence assay, and cytokines']","[{'cui': 'C0043210', 'cui_str': 'Woman'}, {'cui': 'C0004096', 'cui_str': 'Asthma'}, {'cui': 'C1276393', 'cui_str': 'Group exercise'}, {'cui': 'C0520510', 'cui_str': 'Material'}, {'cui': 'C0025663', 'cui_str': 'Method'}, {'cui': 'C3715213', 'cui_str': '21'}, {'cui': 'C1299392', 'cui_str': 'Mild to moderate'}, {'cui': 'C0205272', 'cui_str': 'Regular'}, {'cui': 'C0025329', 'cui_str': 'Normal menstrual cycle'}]","[{'cui': 'C0001701', 'cui_str': 'Aerobic exercises'}, {'cui': 'C0018106', 'cui_str': 'Government Programs'}, {'cui': 'C0205081', 'cui_str': 'Moderate'}, {'cui': 'C0040607', 'cui_str': 'Training Programs'}]","[{'cui': 'C0456603', 'cui_str': 'Ratio'}, {'cui': 'C0014653', 'cui_str': 'Equilibrium'}, {'cui': 'C0039601', 'cui_str': 'Testosterone'}, {'cui': 'C0020268', 'cui_str': 'Hydrocortisone'}, {'cui': 'C0441889', 'cui_str': 'Levels'}, {'cui': 'C0014939', 'cui_str': 'Estrogens'}, {'cui': 'C0033308', 'cui_str': 'Progesterone'}, {'cui': 'C0005893', 'cui_str': 'Body mass index'}, {'cui': 'C0036884', 'cui_str': 'Sex hormone'}, {'cui': 'C0205217', 'cui_str': 'Increased'}, {'cui': 'C0229664', 'cui_str': 'Peripheral blood'}, {'cui': 'C0370003', 'cui_str': 'Specimen'}, {'cui': 'C0201709', 'cui_str': 'Chemiluminescence assay'}, {'cui': 'C0079189', 'cui_str': 'Cytokine'}]",21.0,0.0202045,"The present results suggested that moderate aerobic exercise enhances the Th1/Th2 ratio, independent of changes in steroid hormone level and BMI in women with asthma.","[{'ForeName': 'Azam', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Zarneshan', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Exercise Physiology, Azarbaijan Shahid Madani University, Tabriz, Iran.'}, {'ForeName': 'Mahdia', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Gholamnejad', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Pulmonology, Urmia University of Medical Sciences, Urmia, Iran.'}]",Tanaffos,[]
1448,31629030,"18-month clinical evaluation of a copper-containing universal adhesive in non-carious cervical lesions: A double-blind, randomized controlled trial.","OBJECTIVE
This study aimed to evaluate the addition of copper nanoparticles (CuNp) on the clinical performance of a universal adhesive system used as etch-and-rinse (ER) and self-etch (SE).
METHODS
216 restorations were randomly placed in 36 subjects according to the following groups: ERcu = etch-and-rinse with 0.1% CuNp; ERct = etch-and-rinse without CuNp; SEcu = self-etch with 0.1% CuNp; SEct = self-etch without CuNp. Resin composite was placed incrementally and light-cured. The restorations were evaluated at baseline and 6, 12 and 18 months using the FDI and USPHS criteria. Statistical analyses were performed using appropriate tests (α = 0.05).
RESULTS
The addition of CuNp did not increase the clinical performance (FDI / USPHS) of the universal adhesive tested after 18-month when applied in the ER mode (p > 0.05). The addition of CuNp in SE restorations increased the retention rate significantly and decreased the marginal discrepancies after 18 months (p < 0.05).
CONCLUSION
The clinical performance of universal adhesive was significantly increased when applied in the SE mode with the addition of copper nanoparticles.

1449,31627057,Management of non-severe pregnancy hypertension - A summary of the CHIPS Trial (Control of Hypertension in Pregnancy Study) research publications.,"The international CHIPS Trial (Control of Hypertension In Pregnancy Study) enrolled 987 women with chronic (75%) or gestational (25%) hypertension. Pre-eclampsia developed in 48%; women remained on their allocated BP control and delivered an average of two weeks later. 'Less tight' control (target diastolic BP 100 mmHg) achieved BP that was 6/5mmHg higher (p < 0.001) than 'tight' control (target diastolic 85 mmHg, BP achieved 133/85 mmHg). 'Less tight' (vs. 'tight') control resulted in similar adverse perinatal outcomes (31.5% vs. 30.7%; p = 0.84) that balanced birthweight < 10th percentile (16.1% vs. 19.8%; p = 0.14) against preterm birth (35.6% vs. 31.5%; p = 0.18). 12-month follow-up revealed no compelling evidence for developmental programming of child growth. However, 'less tight' (vs. 'tight') control resulted in more severe maternal hypertension (40.6% vs. 27.5%; p < 0.001), and more women with platelets < 100 × 10 9 /L (4.3% vs. 1.6%; p = 0.02) or symptomatic elevated liver enzymes (4.3% vs. 1.8%; p = 0.03), with no difference in serious maternal complications (3.7% vs. 2.0%; p = 0.17). Labetalol was the drug of choice. Methyldopa did not result in inferior outcomes. Post-hoc, severe hypertension, independent of pre-eclampsia, was associated with heightened increased risk of adverse outcomes, and in 'less tight' control, of serious maternal complications. At no gestational age at initiation of BP control was 'less tight' superior to 'tight'. Women in both groups were equally satisfied with care.

1450,32411551,"Impact of Simulation Training on Undergraduate Clinical Decision-making in Emergencies: A Non-blinded, Single-centre, Randomised Pilot Study.","Introduction There is an increasing evidence base for the use of simulation-based medical education. Simulation is superior to more didactic methods for teaching a range of technical and non-technical skills, and students report they often derive more educational value from it compared with other teaching methods. There is currently limited evidence that simulation training improves clinical decision-making and, therefore, this pilot study sought to explore this further. Methods Students were randomised to take part in either five classroom tutorials and simulation training sessions or five classroom tutorials and an online e-learning module. On completion of the teaching, students all undertook an unseen assessment scenario (managing a simulated patient with anaphylaxis), where they were scored using a weighted marking scheme. The time taken to make decisions and student-reported confidence in decisions were also measured. Results 14/14 simulation-group participants and 12/14 e-learning-group participants completed the post-learning assessment. The simulation group identified anaphylaxis and gave adrenaline more quickly (p 0.008 and 0.005, respectively), and this cohort was more confident in making the diagnosis (p 0.044). There was no statistically significant difference between weighted global assessment scores for each group (p 0.705). The e-learning group called for help more quickly (p.0.049), although fewer students in this group called for help (five vs. nine). There was no statistical difference in confidence in decisions to administer adrenaline or call for help (p 0.539 and 0.364 respectively). Conclusions Participants who undertook simulation training were able to more confidently and quickly identify the diagnosis and initiate emergency treatment. However, there was not a statistically significant difference between groups using an overall weighted score. Using simulation to train students to perform better in emergencies and improve their decision-making shows promise but a further quantitative study is required.",2020,Conclusions Participants who undertook simulation training were able to more confidently and quickly identify the diagnosis and initiate emergency treatment.,['Undergraduate Clinical Decision-making in Emergencies'],"['adrenaline', 'Simulation Training', 'five classroom tutorials and simulation training sessions\xa0or five classroom tutorials and an online e-learning module']",['weighted global assessment scores'],"[{'cui': 'C4042877', 'cui_str': 'Medical Decision-Making'}, {'cui': 'C0175673', 'cui_str': 'Emergency'}]","[{'cui': 'C0014563', 'cui_str': 'Epinephrine'}, {'cui': 'C4042947', 'cui_str': 'Simulation Training'}, {'cui': 'C0013621', 'cui_str': 'Education'}, {'cui': 'C3542953', 'cui_str': 'Module'}]","[{'cui': 'C0005910', 'cui_str': 'Body weight'}, {'cui': 'C0205246', 'cui_str': 'Generalized'}, {'cui': 'C4758616', 'cui_str': 'Assessment score'}]",,0.0581088,Conclusions Participants who undertook simulation training were able to more confidently and quickly identify the diagnosis and initiate emergency treatment.,"[{'ForeName': 'James', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Everson', 'Affiliation': 'Emergency Medicine, School of Medicine, Anglia Ruskin University and Southend University Hospital, Chelmsford, GBR.'}, {'ForeName': 'Alice', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Gao', 'Affiliation': 'Emergency Medicine, School of Medicine, Anglia Ruskin University, Chelmsford, GBR.'}, {'ForeName': 'Carrie', 'Initials': 'C', 'LastName': 'Roder', 'Affiliation': 'Medical Education and Simulation, School of Medicine, Anglia Ruskin University, Chelmsford, GBR.'}, {'ForeName': 'John', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Kinnear', 'Affiliation': 'Internal Medicine: Critical Care, School of Medicine, Anglia Ruskin University, Chelmsford, GBR.'}]",Cureus,['10.7759/cureus.7650']
1451,31628272,Relationship Between Pain Catastrophizing and 6-Month Outcomes Following Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction.,"BACKGROUND
Pain catastrophizing predicts poor outcomes following orthopedic procedures for patients with chronic conditions; however, limited research has focused on acute injuries. This study aimed to quantify the progression of Pain Catastrophizing Scale (PCS) scores from injury to 6-months post-anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) and determine if preoperative or 6-month PCS scores were related with self-reported pain or function 6 months post-ACLR. The authors hypothesized PCS scores would minimally fluctuate and would be related with worse outcomes 6-months post-ACLR.
METHODS
All 48 participants (27 male/21 female; aged 22.7 [4.6] y, body mass index 24 [3.3]) included in this secondary analysis of a randomized control trial sustained an ACL injury during sports activity. Participants completed the PCS and Pain Visual Analog Scale (VAS) at 5 time points: within 7 days of injury (INITIAL), day of surgery, 2 weeks postoperative (2W), 6 weeks postoperative (6W), and 6 months postoperative (6M). They completed the Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS) at 6M. Wilcoxon signed-rank tests and Spearman rank-order correlations were used for analysis.
RESULTS
PCS scores were not fixed (INITIAL: 11.6 [10.8], day of surgery: 2.5 [3.7], 2W: 8.0 [7.8], 6W: 3.7 [6], 6M: 0.8 [2.3]). They fluctuated in response to injury and ACLR similar to Pain VAS scores. Preoperative PCS scores were not related with 6M outcomes; however, 6M PCS scores were significantly related with 6M Pain VAS and KOOS subscales.
CONCLUSIONS
PCS scores fluctuated in response to injury and ACLR. Preoperative PCS scores were not related with 6M outcomes; however, 6M PCS scores correlated with pain and function at 6M.

1452,31523057,Understanding of prognosis in non-metastatic prostate cancer: a randomised comparative study of clinician estimates measured against the PREDICT prostate prognostic model.,"PREDICT Prostate is an individualised prognostic model that provides long-term survival estimates for men diagnosed with non-metastatic prostate cancer ( www.prostate.predict.nhs.uk ). In this study clinician estimates of survival were compared against model predictions and its potential value as a clinical tool was assessed. Prostate cancer (PCa) specialists were invited to participate in the study. 190 clinicians (63% urologists, 17% oncologists, 20% other) were randomised into two groups and shown 12 clinical vignettes through an online portal. Each group viewed opposing vignettes with clinical information alone, or alongside PREDICT Prostate estimates. 15-year clinician survival estimates were compared against model predictions and reported treatment recommendations with and without seeing PREDICT estimates were compared. 155 respondents (81.6%) reported counselling new PCa patients at least weekly. Clinician estimates of PCa-specific mortality exceeded PREDICT estimates in 10/12 vignettes. Their estimates for treatment survival benefit at 15 years were over-optimistic in every vignette, with mean clinician estimates more than 5-fold higher than PREDICT Prostate estimates. Concomitantly seeing PREDICT Prostate estimates led to significantly lower reported likelihoods of recommending radical treatment in 7/12 (58%) vignettes, particularly in older patients. These data suggest clinicians overestimate cancer-related mortality and radical treatment benefit.

1453,32411301,Angiographic Restenosis in Coronary Bifurcations Treatment with Regular Drug Eluting Stents and Dedicated Bifurcation Drug-Eluting BiOSS Stents: Analysis Based on Randomized POLBOS I and POLBOS II Studies.,"Aim
The marked variation in bifurcation anatomy has brought about an ongoing search for stents specifically constructed for coronary bifurcations. This study aimed to analyze the angiographic restenosis prevalence and patterns and predictors of different patterns in dedicated bifurcation BiOSS® vs. current generation drug-eluting stents implanted in coronary bifurcation lesions based on data from two clinical trials POLBOS I and II.
Methods
Dedicated bifurcation BiOSS® stents were compared with drug-eluting stents (DES) in patients with stable coronary artery disease (CAD) or nonST elevation acute coronary syndrome (NSTE-ACS) (POLBOS I: paclitaxel eluting BiOSS® Expert vs. DES; POLBOS II: sirolimus eluting BiOSS® LIM vs. DES). Provisional T-stenting was the default treatment. Morphological pattern of in-stent restenosis according to the modified Mehran classification adopted for bifurcation lesions was assessed with bifurcation dedicated quantitative coronary angiographic software (CAAS 5.11, Pie Medical Imaging BV, the Netherlands).
Results
In total, 445 patients (222 patients in BiOSS group and 223 patients in DES group) were included into the analysis. In BiOSS group 24 cases of angiographic restenosis (10.8%) were recorded, and in DES group-17 cases (7.6%) at 12 months follow-up (angiographic control rate at follow-up-90.3%). In the BiOSS group most frequent medina classification in restenotic cases was 0.0.1 (25%), whereas in DES-0.0.1 and 0.1.1 (23.5% each). In multivariate regression analysis proximal optimization technique was associated with the lowest chance for restenosis (OR 0.15, 95% CI 0.06-0.33), whereas diabetes on insulin was associated with the highest risk of restenosis (OR 4.21, 95% CI 1.48-11.44).
Conclusions

1454,32411460,Laparoscopic Suture versus Mesh Rectopexy for the Treatment of Persistent Complete Rectal Prolapse in Children: A Comparative Randomized Study.,"Purpose
To compare laparoscopic mesh rectopexy with laparoscopic suture rectopexy. Patients and Methods . The prospective study was conducted at Pediatric Surgery Department, Al-Azhar University Hospitals, Cairo, Egypt between Feb 2010 and Jan 2015. Seventy-eight children with persistent complete rectal prolapse were subjected to laparoscopic rectopexy. Fourteen parents refused to participate. All patients received initial conservative treatment for more than one year. The remaining 64 patients were randomized divided into two equal groups. Group A; 32 patients underwent laparoscopic mesh rectopexy and group B, 32 underwent laparoscopic suture rectopexy. The operative time, recurrence rate, post-operative constipation, and effect on fecal incontinence, were reported and evaluated for each group.
Results
Sixty-four cases presented with persistent complete rectal prolapse were the material of this study. They were 40 males and 24 females. Mean age at operation was 8 (5-12) years. All cases were completed laparoscopically. Mean operative time in laparoscopic suture rectopexy was shorter than laparoscopic mesh rectopexy group. No early post-operative complications were encountered. No cases of recurrence with mesh rectopexy group while in suture rectopexy group it was 4 cases (14.2%). Post-operative constipation occurred in one case (3.57%) in suture rectopexy group and occurred in one case (3.3%) in mesh rectopexy group. Fecal incontinence improved in 26/28 cases (92.8%) in suture rectopexy while in mesh rectopexy it was improved in 30/30 cases (100%) of cases.
Conclusion
Both laparoscopic mesh and suture rectopexy are feasible and reliable methods for the treatment of complete rectal prolapse in children. However, no recurrence, low incidence of constipation and high improvement of incontinence at follow up more than 36 months with mesh rectopexy accordingly, we considered mesh rectopexy to be the procedure of choice in treatment of complete rectal prolapse.",2020,Both laparoscopic mesh and suture rectopexy are feasible and reliable methods for the treatment of complete rectal prolapse in children.,"['They were 40 males and 24 females', 'complete rectal prolapse in children', '64 patients', 'Persistent Complete Rectal Prolapse in Children', 'Fourteen parents refused to participate', 'Seventy-eight children with persistent complete rectal prolapse', 'Pediatric Surgery Department, Al-Azhar University Hospitals, Cairo, Egypt between Feb 2010 and Jan 2015']","['laparoscopic suture rectopexy', 'laparoscopic mesh rectopexy', 'laparoscopic mesh and suture rectopexy', 'laparoscopic rectopexy', 'initial conservative treatment', 'Laparoscopic Suture versus Mesh Rectopexy']","['persistent complete rectal prolapse', 'Mean operative time', 'no recurrence, low incidence of constipation and high improvement of incontinence', 'Post-operative constipation', 'operative time, recurrence rate, post-operative constipation, and effect on fecal incontinence', 'Fecal incontinence']","[{'cui': 'C0086582', 'cui_str': 'Male'}, {'cui': 'C0002838', 'cui_str': 'Andorra'}, {'cui': 'C0043210', 'cui_str': 'Woman'}, {'cui': 'C0341399', 'cui_str': 'Complete rectal prolapse'}, {'cui': 'C0008059', 'cui_str': 'Child'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patient'}, {'cui': 'C0332996', 'cui_str': 'Persistent embryonic structure'}, {'cui': 'C3715152', 'cui_str': '14'}, {'cui': 'C0030551', 'cui_str': 'Parent'}, {'cui': 'C1136454', 'cui_str': 'Refusal to Participate'}, {'cui': 'C3816957', 'cui_str': '70'}, {'cui': 'C0279077', 'cui_str': 'Pediatric surgery'}, {'cui': 'C0020028', 'cui_str': 'University Hospitals'}, {'cui': 'C0013715', 'cui_str': 'Egypt'}]","[{'cui': 'C0031150', 'cui_str': 'Laparoscopy'}, {'cui': 'C0009068', 'cui_str': 'Closure by suture'}, {'cui': 'C0193176', 'cui_str': 'Proctopexy'}, {'cui': 'C0400222', 'cui_str': 'Mesh rectopexy'}, {'cui': 'C0181805', 'cui_str': 'Mesh'}, {'cui': 'C0205265', 'cui_str': 'Initial'}, {'cui': 'C0459914', 'cui_str': 'Conservative therapy'}]","[{'cui': 'C0332996', 'cui_str': 'Persistent embryonic structure'}, {'cui': 'C0341399', 'cui_str': 'Complete rectal prolapse'}, {'cui': 'C0444504', 'cui_str': 'Mean'}, {'cui': 'C3494201', 'cui_str': 'Length of Operative Time'}, {'cui': 'C0034897', 'cui_str': 'Recurrence'}, {'cui': 'C0205251', 'cui_str': 'Low'}, {'cui': 'C0021149', 'cui_str': 'Incidence'}, {'cui': 'C0009806', 'cui_str': 'Constipation'}, {'cui': 'C0205250', 'cui_str': 'High'}, {'cui': 'C0015732', 'cui_str': 'Incontinence of feces'}, {'cui': 'C0032790', 'cui_str': 'Postoperative period'}, {'cui': 'C1280500', 'cui_str': 'Effect'}]",78.0,0.0386761,Both laparoscopic mesh and suture rectopexy are feasible and reliable methods for the treatment of complete rectal prolapse in children.,"[{'ForeName': 'AbdelAziz', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Yehya', 'Affiliation': 'Pediatric Surgery Department, Al-Azhar University Hospitals, Cairo, Egypt.'}, {'ForeName': 'Ibrahim', 'Initials': 'I', 'LastName': 'Gamaan', 'Affiliation': 'Pediatric Surgery Department, Al-Azhar University Hospitals, Cairo, Egypt.'}, {'ForeName': 'Mohamed', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Abdelrazek', 'Affiliation': 'Pediatric Surgery Department, Al-Azhar University Hospitals, Cairo, Egypt.'}, {'ForeName': 'Mohamed', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Shahin', 'Affiliation': 'Pediatric Surgery Department, Al-Azhar University Hospitals, Cairo, Egypt.'}, {'ForeName': 'Ashraf', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Seddek', 'Affiliation': 'Pediatric Surgery Department, Al-Azhar University Hospitals, Cairo, Egypt.'}, {'ForeName': 'Mohamed', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Abdelhafez', 'Affiliation': 'Pediatric Surgery Department, Al-Azhar University Hospitals, Cairo, Egypt.'}]",Minimally invasive surgery,['10.1155/2020/3057528']

We also sought to evaluate the psychosocial impact based on the results of the strategies. Methods: Nested within a randomised pragmatic trial, which compared an immediate colposcopy, repeat Pap-smear, and high risk HPV test, we enrolled 675 women between 2012 and 2014. Participants completed surveys at enrollment, two weeks after triage test results, and 1 year thereafter to assess cervical cancer and HPV knowledge, self-esteem, anxiety and HPV impact (HIP). Results: Knowledge, self-esteem, anxiety and HIP improved with no differences among arms. At the baseline, 31.4% and 32.7% of the participants had state anxiety and trait anxiety, respectively, which decreased to 10.7% and 13.3% in the last survey. Compared to HPV-negative women, HPV-positive women in the second survey had worse HIP scores (HPV-: M 22.9 [SD: 15.20]; HPV+: M 35.9 [SD: 19.91]; p < 0.001), trait anxiety (HPV-: M 15.4 [SD 12.73]; HPV+: M 22.9 [SD 13.29]; p = 0.001), and state anxiety (HPV-: M 10.7 [SD 11.25]; HPV+: M 21.4 [SD 14.81]; p < 0.001).

In addition, we examined the effect of social determinants of health on our system. Methods: Sixty-five ( n = 65) patients were randomized at a primary care clinic. Self-reported FBG data were collected by EpxDiabetes automated phone calls or text messages. Only intervention group responses were shared with providers, facilitating follow-up and bidirectional communication. ΔHbA 1c and ΔFBG were analyzed after 6 months. Results: There was an absolute HbA 1c reduction of 0.69% in the intervention group (95% confidence interval [CI], -1.41 to 0.02) and an absolute reduction of 0.03% in the control group (95% CI, -0.88 to 0.82). For those with baseline HbA 1c >8%, HbA 1c decreased significantly by 1.17% in the intervention group (95% CI, -1.90 to -0.44), and decreased by 0.02% in the control group (95% CI, -0.99 to 0.94). FBG decreased in the intervention group by 21.6 mg/dL (95% CI, -37.56 to -5.639), and increased 13.0 mg/dL in the control group (95% CI, -47.67 to 73.69). Engagement (proportion responding to ≥25% of texts or calls over 4 weeks) was 58% for the intervention group (95% CI, 0.373-0.627) and 48% for the control group (95% CI, 0.296-0.621).

To examine the efficacy of neurofeedback (NF), behavior therapy (BT), and pharmacology (PH) on the improvement of ADHD-related symptoms.
METHOD
Fifty-nine children with ADHD ( M = 8.80 years, SD = 1.92 years) were randomly assigned to one of the three treatments in a pre/post assessment design. Mother- and teacher-rated ADHD scales and children were assessed using The Integrated Visual and Auditory Continuous Performance Test (IVA/CPT).
RESULTS
The three treatments were effective on the IVA/CPT, but with different trends. BT and especially NF achieved improvement on response control and attention, and PH mainly in visual attention. On the rating scales, BT improved all measures, and NF and PH had a minor but interesting influence.
CONCLUSION
From a global perspective, behavior therapy had the most extensive results, but PH had the greatest capacity to improve overall attention. NF was able to improve both control response and inattention. Clinical implications are discussed.",2019,"On the rating scales, BT improved all measures, and NF and PH had a minor but interesting influence.

1458,32411374,Periodized resistance training for persistent non-specific low back pain: a mixed methods feasibility study.,"Background
We investigated the feasibility of a 16-week supervised heavy resistance training program with weekly undulating periodization for individuals with persistent non-specific low-back pain (LBP).
Methods
Twenty-five adults with persistent non-specific LBP participated in this mixed methods feasibility study. Participants trained a whole-body program consisting of squat, bench press, deadlift and pendlay row two times per week for 16 weeks. We assessed pain intensity, pain-related disability, pain self-efficacy and one-repetition maximum strength at baseline, 8 weeks and 16 weeks. Three focus group interviews were conducted at the end of the program. Linear mixed models were used to assess changes in outcomes, and the qualitative data was assessed using systematic text condensation.
Results
We observed clinically meaningful reductions in pain intensity after 8 and 16 weeks of training. The mean difference on the numeric pain rating scale (0-10) in the last 2 weeks from baseline to 8 weeks was 2.6 (95% CI: 1.8-3.6) and from baseline to 16 weeks 3.4 (95% CI: 2.5-4.4). In addition, there were improvements in pain-related disability (3.9, 95% CI: 2.3-5.5), pain self-efficacy (7.7, 95% CI: 5.4-10.1) and muscle strength. In the focus group interviews, participants talked about challenges regarding technique, the importance of supervision and the advantages of periodizing the training. Perceived benefits were improved pain, daily functioning, energy level and sleep, and changes in views on physical activity.
Conclusion
Periodized resistance training with weekly undulating periodization is a feasible training method for this group of individuals with persistent non-specific LBP. A randomized clinical trial should assess the efficacy of such an intervention.

1459,32411517,Evaluating the stress-response of dental students to the dental school environment.,"Introduction and Objective
Dentists experience high amounts of professional stress beginning with their student years in dental school. This stress, given its early onset, may negatively impact the personal and professional lives of these individuals, as well as the quality of their clinical work. We sought to create an objective scale to evaluate the levels of stress in students at different stages of their education, as well as in practicing physicians.
Materials and Methods
Thirty dental students participated in this study, with 10 students each selected from junior, mid-senior, and senior classes. They were randomly divided into two groups in which one group was subjected to stressors while the other group was not. JINS MEME ES_R (JINS) smart glasses and Garmin Vivoactive 3 smartwatches were used to obtain data, including electrooculography (EOG), heart rate (HR), and accelerometer (ACC) and gyroscope (GYRO) feedback, while the subjects performed a dental exercise on a phantom tooth.
Results
The heart rates of more experienced students were lower than those of the junior students. The EOG, ACC, and GYRO signals showed multiple differences in the measurement of amplitudes and frequency of episodes.
Conclusion
Our pilot results show that electronic tools, like smart glasses with software and sensors, are useful for monitoring the stress levels of dental students in preclinical operating conditions. We would like to further assess the stress levels in students performing dental procedures on phantom teeth and in later clinical interactions with patients.",2020,"Our pilot results show that electronic tools, like smart glasses with software and sensors, are useful for monitoring the stress levels of dental students in preclinical operating conditions.","['students at different stages of their education, as well as in practicing physicians', 'dental students to the dental school environment', 'professional stress beginning with their student years in dental school', 'students performing dental procedures on phantom teeth and in later clinical interactions with patients', 'Thirty dental students participated in this study, with 10 students each selected from junior, mid-senior, and senior classes']",[],"['electrooculography (EOG), heart rate (HR), and accelerometer (ACC) and gyroscope (GYRO) feedback', 'heart rates', 'amplitudes and frequency of episodes']","[{'cui': 'C0038492', 'cui_str': 'Student'}, {'cui': 'C0205390', 'cui_str': 'Phase'}, {'cui': 'C0031831', 'cui_str': 'Physician'}, {'cui': 'C0038493', 'cui_str': 'Dental Student'}, {'cui': 'C0036376', 'cui_str': 'Dental School'}, {'cui': 'C0014406', 'cui_str': 'Environment'}, {'cui': 'C0814090', 'cui_str': 'Job-related Stress'}, {'cui': 'C0439659', 'cui_str': 'Origins'}, {'cui': 'C0439234', 'cui_str': 'year'}, {'cui': 'C0884358', 'cui_str': 'Performed'}, {'cui': 'C0011331', 'cui_str': 'Dental care'}, {'cui': 'C0282611', 'cui_str': 'Phantom'}, {'cui': 'C0040426', 'cui_str': 'Tooth structure'}, {'cui': 'C0205087', 'cui_str': 'Late'}, {'cui': 'C0205210', 'cui_str': 'Clinical'}, {'cui': 'C0021797', 'cui_str': 'Interpersonal Relations'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patient'}, {'cui': 'C3816446', 'cui_str': '30'}, {'cui': 'C0008972', 'cui_str': 'Clinical Study'}, {'cui': 'C0444598', 'cui_str': 'Mid'}, {'cui': 'C0456387', 'cui_str': 'Class'}]",[],"[{'cui': 'C0013854', 'cui_str': 'Electro-oculogram examination'}, {'cui': 'C0018810', 'cui_str': 'Heart rate'}, {'cui': 'C0015744', 'cui_str': 'Feedback'}, {'cui': 'C0237630', 'cui_str': 'Stimulus frequency'}, {'cui': 'C0332189', 'cui_str': 'Episode of'}]",30.0,0.0162069,"Our pilot results show that electronic tools, like smart glasses with software and sensors, are useful for monitoring the stress levels of dental students in preclinical operating conditions.","[{'ForeName': 'Katarzyna', 'Initials': 'K', 'LastName': 'Mocny-Pachońska', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Conservative Dentistry with Endodontics, Medical University of Silesia, Faculty of Medical Science, Bytom, Poland.'}, {'ForeName': 'Rafał', 'Initials': 'R', 'LastName': 'Doniec', 'Affiliation': 'Faculty of Biomedical Engineering, Department of Biosensors and Biomedical Signal Processing, Silesian University of Technology, Zabrze, Poland.'}, {'ForeName': 'Agata', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Trzcionka', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Conservative Dentistry with Endodontics, Medical University of Silesia, Faculty of Medical Science, Bytom, Poland.'}, {'ForeName': 'Marek', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Pachoński', 'Affiliation': 'Pachonscy Dental Clinic, Strzebiń, Poland.'}, {'ForeName': 'Natalia', 'Initials': 'N', 'LastName': 'Piaseczna', 'Affiliation': 'Faculty of Biomedical Engineering, Department of Biosensors and Biomedical Signal Processing, Silesian University of Technology, Zabrze, Poland.'}, {'ForeName': 'Szymon', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Sieciński', 'Affiliation': 'Faculty of Biomedical Engineering, Department of Biosensors and Biomedical Signal Processing, Silesian University of Technology, Zabrze, Poland.'}, {'ForeName': 'Oleksandra', 'Initials': 'O', 'LastName': 'Osadcha', 'Affiliation': 'Silesian University of Technology, Institute of Mathematics, Gliwice, Poland.'}, {'ForeName': 'Patrycja', 'Initials': 'P', 'LastName': 'Łanowy', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Conservative Dentistry with Endodontics, Medical University of Silesia, Faculty of Medical Science, Bytom, Poland.'}, {'ForeName': 'Marta', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Tanasiewicz', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Conservative Dentistry with Endodontics, Medical University of Silesia, Faculty of Medical Science, Bytom, Poland.'}]",PeerJ,['10.7717/peerj.8981']

Bictegravir, coformulated with emtricitabine/tenofovir alafenamide as a fixed-dose combination (B/F/TAF), is recommended for treatment of HIV-1-infection. Multiple studies of B/F/TAF in treatment-naive and virologically suppressed cohorts have shown high efficacy and tolerability with no treatment-emergent resistance through 48 weeks. Participants in these studies have been predominantly men. We report 48-week results from a phase 3 study evaluating switching to B/F/TAF, specifically in a globally distributed trial population of women.
METHODS
In this multicenter, randomized, open-label, active-controlled, noninferiority trial (ClinicalTrials.gov NCT02652624), women living with HIV who were virologically suppressed (HIV-1 RNA levels <50 copies/mL) on a regimen containing either TAF or tenofovir disoproxil fumarate were randomly assigned (1:1) to switch to B/F/TAF (50/200/25 mg) or stay on baseline regimen (SBR) once daily for 48 weeks. Primary endpoint was proportion of participants with plasma HIV-1 RNA ≥50 copies/mL at week 48 (U.S. Food and Drug Administration snapshot algorithm); prespecified noninferiority margin was 4%.
FINDINGS
We randomized 472 participants and treated 470 (234 B/F/TAF, 236 SBR). Switching to B/F/TAF was noninferior to SBR for the primary outcome, as 1.7% (4/234) vs 1.7% (4/236) had HIV-1 RNA ≥50 copies/mL at week 48 (difference 0.0%, 95.001% confidence interval: -2.9% to 2.9%). No individual receiving B/F/TAF developed treatment-emergent resistance. Both treatments were well-tolerated; no participant discontinued treatment because of an adverse event.

1461,32411324,L-Glutamine Supplementation Improves the Benefits of Combined-Exercise Training on Oral Redox Balance and Inflammatory Status in Elderly Individuals.,"Although regular combined aerobic-resistance exercises can ameliorate the inflammatory status and redox balance in elderly population, it is unclear whether protein or specific amino acid supplementation could improve such benefits. Therefore, we aimed to evaluate the inflammatory status and redox indexes through of the saliva of 34 elderly subject nonpractitioners (NP group, 73.3 ± 6.6 years) and 49 elderly subject practitioners of a combined-exercise training in moderate intensity (CET group, 71.9 ± 5.8 years) before (pre) and after (post) 30 days of supplementation with L-glutamine (Gln) or placebo (PL). Our results showed that, both in pre- and postsupplementation, the salivary levels of nitric oxide (NO · ) and TNF- α were lower, whereas the levels of uric acid and IL-10 (as well as IL-10/TNF- α ratio) were higher in the CET groups than in the NP groups. In postsupplementation, both groups supplemented with Gln (NP-Gln and CET-Gln) showed higher salivary uric acid levels compared to baseline. In addition, lower NO · levels were found in the CET-Gln group postsupplementation than presupplementation values. Whereas the CET-Gln group showed lower GSH levels postsupplementation, NP-Gln subjects showed lower GSSG levels at the same time point, both compared to baseline. Interestingly, salivary peroxidase activity was lower only in NP groups (NP-PL and NP-Gln) postsupplementation than baseline values. A positive significant correlation between salivary peroxidase activity and GSH levels, and also between salivary peroxidase activity and uric acid levels were observed in the CET-Gln group both pre- and postsupplementation. No differences were found in albumin, total antioxidant activity (TEAC), and reducing power analysis between groups, pre- or postsupplementation. In conclusion, the elderly subjects from the CET group showed a better inflammatory response and redox balance and, for the first time, it was shown that daily supplementation with Gln for 30 days can

1462,32411343,Evaluation of Inflammatory Markers in Patients Undergoing a Short-Term Aerobic Exercise Program while Hospitalized due to Acute Exacerbation of COPD.,"Introduction
Acute exacerbation is an important factor for a worse prognosis in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). It promotes the increase of the inflammatory process and worsens quality of life, lung function, and muscle weakness. It is believed that physical exercise performed during the exacerbation breaks the vicious cycle of systemic manifestations without an increase in the inflammatory process.
Objective
To evaluate the influence of short-term aerobic physical exercise during hospitalization on inflammatory markers. Patients and Methods . 26 patients were evaluated (69.2% female, FEV 137.5 ± 12.9%, and age 68.4 ± 11.6 years) 24 hours after hospitalization for smoking history, Charlson index, quality of life, systemic inflammatory markers, and body composition. After 48 hours of hospitalization, all patients underwent a 6-minute walk test (6MWT) and a new spirometry test, and BODE index was calculated. After 72 hours of hospitalization, patients in the intervention group underwent aerobic exercise on a treadmill for 15 minutes twice daily; before and after the aerobic exercise, blood samples were collected for evaluation of inflammatory markers. Finally, a month after hospital discharge, all patients were reevaluated according to systemic inflammatory markers, quality of life, body composition, spirometry, 6MWT, and BODE index.
Results
Patients of both groups did not differ in severity of disease and general characteristics. The intervention group did not show worsening in the inflammatory process after aerobic activity: TNF- α from 1.19 (0 99-1.71) to 1.21 (0.77-1.53) ( p = 0.58), IL-6 from 2.41 (2.02-0.58) to 2.66 (1.69-0.48) ( p = 0.21), and CRP from 3.88 (2.26-8.04) to 4.07 (2.65-13.3) ( p = 0.56). There was a negative correlation between the IL-6 marker and the 6MWT; that is, with the reduction in inflammatory levels, there was an improvement in exercise capacity one month after hospital discharge.
Conclusion
The present study showed that the aerobic physical activity initiated during hospitalization in patients with exacerbated COPD did not worsen the inflammatory process.",2020,"The intervention group did not show worsening in the inflammatory process after aerobic activity: TNF- α from 1.19 (0 99-1.71) to 1.21 (0.77-1.53) ( p = 0.58), IL-6 from 2.41 (2.02-0.58) to 2.66 (1.69-0.48) ( p = 0.21), and CRP from 3.88 (2.26-8.04) to 4.07 (2.65-13.3) ( p = 0.56).","['patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD', 'patients with exacerbated COPD', 'Patients Undergoing a Short-Term Aerobic Exercise Program while Hospitalized due to Acute Exacerbation of COPD', '26 patients were evaluated (69.2% female, FEV 137.5\u2009±\u200912.9%, and age 68.4\u2009±\u200911.6 years) 24 hours after hospitalization for smoking history, Charlson index, quality of life, systemic inflammatory markers, and body composition']","['short-term aerobic physical exercise', 'aerobic exercise']","['inflammatory levels', '6-minute walk test (6MWT) and a new spirometry test, and BODE index', 'inflammatory process and worsens quality of life, lung function, and muscle weakness', 'severity of disease and general characteristics', 'systemic inflammatory markers, quality of life, body composition, spirometry, 6MWT, and BODE index']","[{'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patient'}, {'cui': 'C0024117', 'cui_str': 'Chronic obstructive lung disease'}, {'cui': 'C0436331', 'cui_str': 'Symptom aggravating factors'}, {'cui': 'C0453933', 'cui_str': 'Shorts'}, {'cui': 'C0233324', 'cui_str': 'Term birth of newborn'}, {'cui': 'C0001701', 'cui_str': 'Aerobic exercises'}, {'cui': 'C0018106', 'cui_str': 'Government Programs'}, {'cui': 'C0701159', 'cui_str': 'Patient in hospital'}, {'cui': 'C0678226', 'cui_str': 'Due to'}, {'cui': 'C0340044', 'cui_str': 'Acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive airways disease'}, {'cui': 'C0043210', 'cui_str': 'Woman'}, {'cui': 'C1306036', 'cui_str': 'Forced expiratory volume'}, {'cui': 'C0001779', 'cui_str': 'Age'}, {'cui': 'C4708782', 'cui_str': '11.6'}, {'cui': 'C0439234', 'cui_str': 'year'}, {'cui': 'C0439584', 'cui_str': '24 hours'}, {'cui': 'C0019993', 'cui_str': 'Inpatient care'}, {'cui': 'C0037369', 'cui_str': 'Smoking'}, {'cui': 'C0019664', 'cui_str': 'History'}, {'cui': 'C0600653', 'cui_str': 'Indexes'}, {'cui': 'C0518214', 'cui_str': 'Quality of life satisfaction'}, {'cui': 'C0205373', 'cui_str': 'Systemic'}, {'cui': 'C0005516', 'cui_str': 'Biological Markers'}, {'cui': 'C0005885', 'cui_str': 'Body composition'}]","[{'cui': 'C0453933', 'cui_str': 'Shorts'}, {'cui': 'C0233324', 'cui_str': 'Term birth of newborn'}, {'cui': 'C0015259', 'cui_str': 'Exercise'}, {'cui': 'C0001701', 'cui_str': 'Aerobic exercises'}]","[{'cui': 'C0441889', 'cui_str': 'Levels'}, {'cui': 'C0430515', 'cui_str': '6-minute walk test'}, {'cui': 'C0205314', 'cui_str': 'New'}, {'cui': 'C0037981', 'cui_str': 'Spirometry'}, {'cui': 'C0600653', 'cui_str': 'Indexes'}, {'cui': 'C1522240', 'cui_str': 'Process'}, {'cui': 'C0332271', 'cui_str': 'Worsening'}, {'cui': 'C0518214', 'cui_str': 'Quality of life satisfaction'}, {'cui': 'C0024119', 'cui_str': 'Pulmonary function test'}, {'cui': 'C0030552', 'cui_str': 'Paresis'}, {'cui': 'C0439793', 'cui_str': 'Severities'}, {'cui': 'C0012634', 'cui_str': 'Disease'}, {'cui': 'C0205246', 'cui_str': 'Generalized'}, {'cui': 'C0205373', 'cui_str': 'Systemic'}, {'cui': 'C0005516', 'cui_str': 'Biological Markers'}, {'cui': 'C0005885', 'cui_str': 'Body composition'}]",26.0,0.0394306,"The intervention group did not show worsening in the inflammatory process after aerobic activity: TNF- α from 1.19 (0 99-1.71) to 1.21 (0.77-1.53) ( p = 0.58), IL-6 from 2.41 (2.02-0.58) to 2.66 (1.69-0.48) ( p = 0.21), and CRP from 3.88 (2.26-8.04) to 4.07 (2.65-13.3) ( p = 0.56).","[{'ForeName': 'Caroline', 'Initials': 'C', 'LastName': 'Knaut', 'Affiliation': 'UNESP-Univ Estadual Paulista, Campus de Botucatu, Department of Internal Medicine, Pneumology Area, SP, Brazil.'}, {'ForeName': 'Carolina', 'Initials': 'C', 'LastName': 'Bonfanti Mesquita', 'Affiliation': 'UNESP-Univ Estadual Paulista, Campus de Botucatu, Department of Internal Medicine, Pneumology Area, SP, Brazil.'}, {'ForeName': 'Victor Zuniga', 'Initials': 'VZ', 'LastName': 'Dourado', 'Affiliation': 'UNESP-Univ Estadual Paulista, Campus de Botucatu, Department of Internal Medicine, Pneumology Area, SP, Brazil.'}, {'ForeName': 'Irma', 'Initials': 'I', 'LastName': 'de Godoy', 'Affiliation': 'UNESP-Univ Estadual Paulista, Campus de Botucatu, Department of Internal Medicine, Pneumology Area, SP, Brazil.'}, {'ForeName': 'Suzana E', 'Initials': 'SE', 'LastName': 'Tanni', 'Affiliation': 'UNESP-Univ Estadual Paulista, Campus de Botucatu, Department of Internal Medicine, Pneumology Area, SP, Brazil.'}]",International journal of inflammation,['10.1155/2020/6492720']
1463,32411381,Feasibility of behavioral activation group therapy in reducing depressive symptoms and improving quality of life in patients with depression: the BRAVE pilot trial.,"Background
Depression impacts the lives of millions of people worldwide. Behavioral activation (BA), derived from cognitive behavioral therapy, has the potential for improving depressive symptoms in patients with depression. Studies evaluating the effectiveness of BA specifically in the context of group therapy programs in a hospital setting for patients with depression are limited. In this study, we report findings from a pilot trial evaluating group BA for major depressive disorder.
Objective
The objectives of this pilot trial are to assess the potential of a full trial of BA group therapy in a large-scale tertiary care setting and to provide preliminary information about possible results regarding mood symptoms and quality of life in adults with depression.
Methods
Using a parallel single-cohort pragmatic pilot randomized controlled trial design, we evaluated the potential of conducting a large trial of BA effectiveness among adults with depression. Participants were randomized to the intervention (BA in addition to usual care) or control (support group in addition to usual care) groups and were assessed weekly for 18 consecutive weeks. Participants randomized to intervention underwent 28 2-h group BA therapy visits administered by trained therapists and completed assessments to examine treatment outcomes. Feasibility was measured in terms of enrollment rates (min. 20%), completion rates of study (min. 80%), and completion rates of weekly measurement scales (min. 80%). The reporting of this pilot trial is in accordance with the CONSORT extension for randomized pilot and feasibility trials.
Results
We randomized 20 individuals of mean age of 48.8 years (standard deviation = 9.7) with a DSM-5 diagnosis of major depressive disorder to intervention ( n = 10) or control ( n = 10) groups. Based on our feasibility criteria, our recruitment rate was excellent (20/27; 74%), study completion was found to be a moderate (80% of the total participants in both arms completed the study; BA = 100%, control = 60%), and completeness of measurements on a weekly basis was adequate overall (82%; BA = 86%, control = 79%).
Conclusions
The study has demonstrated the potential feasibility to perform a larger scale trial upon modifications to the control group to avoid the low rate of study completion (60%) in this group.

1464,32411633,Mucopexy-Recto Anal Lifting (MuRAL) in managing obstructed defecation syndrome associated with prolapsed hemorrhoids and rectocele: preliminary results.,"Purpose
Treatment of rectocele associated with prolapsed hemorrhoids is a debated topic. Transanal stapling achieved good midterm results in patients with symptoms of obstructed defecation, nevertheless a number of severe complications have been reported. The aim of this study was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of a new endorectal manual technique in patients with obstructed defecation due to the combination of muco-hemorrhoidal prolapse and rectocele.
Methods
Patients enrolled after preoperative obstructed defecation syndrome (ODS) score, defecography and anoscopy were submitted to the novel Mucopexy-Recto Anal Lifting (MuRAL) combined with a modified Block procedure, and followed up by independent observers with digital exploration 3 weeks postoperatively, and digital exploration plus anoscopy at 3, 6, and 12 months. Operative time, hospital stay, numerating rating scale (NRS), ODS, satisfaction scores, and recurrence rate were recorded.
Results
Mean operative time was 35.7 minutes. Fifty-six patients completed 1-year follow-up: 7.1% had acute urinary retention, NRS score was < 3 from the third postoperative day, mean time of daily activity resumption was 12 days, none had persistent fecal urgency, 82% declared excellent/good satisfaction score, significant improvement of 6- and 12-month ODS score, no recurrence of rectocele, and 7.1% recurrence of prolapsed hemorrhoids were observed.
Conclusion

1465,31629338,"Is an Elastic Ankle Support Effective in Improving Jump Landing Performance, and Static and Dynamic Balance in Young Adults With and Without Chronic Ankle Instability?","CONTEXT
In some patients, ankle sprains lead to chronic symptoms like pain or muscular weakness called chronic ankle instability (CAI). External ankle supports have shown to be effective in preventing sprains and reducing recurrence, but the underlying mechanisms are unclear. As sensorimotor variables are associated with injury incidence, an influence of external ankle support on landing performance and balance seems plausible.
OBJECTIVE
To analyze the effects of an elastic ankle support on jump landing performance and static and dynamic balance in patients with CAI and healthy controls.
DESIGN
Crossover study.
SETTING
Functional tests in a laboratory setting.
PATIENTS OR OTHER PARTICIPANTS
Twenty healthy students and 20 patients with CAI were included for study participation based on their scores in ankle stability and function questionnaires.
INTERVENTION
Healthy and CAI participants performed each test with and without an elastic ankle support.
MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES
(1) Jump landing performance was measured with the Landing Error Scoring System, (2) static balance was assessed with the Balance Error Scoring System, and (3) dynamic balance was assessed using the Y Balance Test. Linear mixed models were used to analyze the effects of the elastic ankle support on sensorimotor parameters.
RESULTS
Healthy controls performed significantly better in the Landing Error Scoring System (P = .01) and Y Balance Test anterior direction (P = .01). No significant effects of elastic ankle support on Landing Error Scoring System, Balance Error Scoring System, or Y Balance Test performance were observed in the CAI or control group. There were no significant group-by-ankle support interactions.
CONCLUSIONS
In the current study, the acute use of elastic ankle support was ineffective for enhancing jump landing performance, and static and dynamic balance. Further research is needed to identify the underlying mechanisms of the preventive effects of elastic ankle support.",2019,"No significant effects of elastic ankle support on Landing Error Scoring System, Balance Error Scoring System, or Y Balance Test performance were observed in the CAI or control group.","['patients with CAI and healthy controls', 'Young Adults', 'Twenty healthy students and 20 patients with CAI']",['elastic ankle support'],"['Jump Landing Performance, and Static and Dynamic Balance', 'Landing Error Scoring System, (2)\xa0static balance was assessed with the Balance Error Scoring System, and (3)\xa0dynamic balance', 'Landing Error Scoring System', 'jump landing performance and static and dynamic balance', 'ankle stability and function questionnaires', 'jump landing performance, and static and dynamic balance', 'Landing Error Scoring System, Balance Error Scoring System, or Y Balance Test performance', '1)\xa0Jump landing performance', 'Y Balance Test anterior direction']","[{'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C2587213', 'cui_str': 'Controlled (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0238598', 'cui_str': 'Young Adult'}, {'cui': 'C0038492', 'cui_str': 'Student (occupation)'}]","[{'cui': 'C0003086', 'cui_str': 'Regio tarsalis'}, {'cui': 'C0344211', 'cui_str': 'Supportive care'}]","[{'cui': 'C0560453', 'cui_str': 'Does jump (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C0557668', 'cui_str': 'Landing (environment)'}, {'cui': 'C0441463', 'cui_str': 'Static (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0729333', 'cui_str': 'Dynamic (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0179199', 'cui_str': 'Balance (physical object)'}, {'cui': 'C0449820', 'cui_str': 'Scores (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0449913', 'cui_str': 'System (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0003086', 'cui_str': 'Regio tarsalis'}, {'cui': 'C0031843', 'cui_str': 'function'}, {'cui': 'C0034394', 'cui_str': 'Questionnaires'}, {'cui': 'C0392366', 'cui_str': 'Tests (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0205094', 'cui_str': 'Anterior (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0439755', 'cui_str': 'Directions (qualifier value)'}]",20.0,0.0256553,"No significant effects of elastic ankle support on Landing Error Scoring System, Balance Error Scoring System, or Y Balance Test performance were observed in the CAI or control group.","[{'ForeName': 'Cornelius', 'Initials': 'C', 'LastName': 'John', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Andreas', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Stotz', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Julian', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Gmachowski', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Anna Lina', 'Initials': 'AL', 'LastName': 'Rahlf', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Daniel', 'Initials': 'D', 'LastName': 'Hamacher', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Karsten', 'Initials': 'K', 'LastName': 'Hollander', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Astrid', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Zech', 'Affiliation': ''}]",Journal of sport rehabilitation,['10.1123/jsr.2019-0147']
1466,31613706,A Pilot and Feasibility Study of Oatmeal Consumption in Children to Assess Markers of Bowel Function.,"Inadequate dietary fiber intake contributes to irregular bowel movements and may contribute to difficulty with defecation in children. Whole grain foods, such as oatmeal, may improve stool consistency and stool frequency in children; however, no studies have examined its effects. The purpose of this study was to investigate if 2 weeks of oatmeal consumption in children (ages 7-12 years) increases stool frequency, improves stool consistency, and gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms. In this single-arm intervention study, children who reported ≤5 bowel movements per week during screening, consumed two servings of instant oatmeal daily for 2 weeks. The primary outcome was stool frequency and secondary outcomes included stool consistency and GI symptoms. Participants recorded bowel movements daily, food intake, and GI symptoms during baseline and 2 intervention weeks. Photos of the children's stool were taken at three timepoints during the study to assess stool consistency. In total, 33 children (15 female and 18 male) completed the study. Linear mixed models were used to detect change between baseline and the intervention weeks and accounted for repeated measures within subjects. No statistical differences in stool frequency or consistency were observed between the intervention weeks vs. baseline; however, dietary fiber intake significantly increased during the 2 weeks of oatmeal consumption ( P = .008). The addition of oatmeal to children's diets is an effective way to increase fiber consumption and may reduce some GI symptoms such as gas, straining, and feeling of incomplete evacuation.

1467,32052264,"Results of Mirogabalin Treatment for Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathic Pain in Asian Subjects: A Phase 2, Double-Blind, Randomized, Placebo-Controlled, Study.","INTRODUCTION
Almost one-quarter of Asian patients with diabetes experience diabetic peripheral neuropathic pain (DPNP), which may be associated with moderate or severe levels of pain, insomnia, mood disorders, and worsened quality of life. Current treatments are generally ineffective and may be poorly tolerated. We evaluated mirogabalin as a treatment for DPNP in Asian subjects.
METHODS
This phase 2, randomized, double-blind, controlled study was conducted in Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan. Subjects (n = 450) with DPNP were randomized (1:1:1:1:1) to treatment with 5, 10, or 15 mg twice-daily (BID) mirogabalin, 150 mg BID pregabalin, or placebo. The primary endpoint was change from baseline in average daily pain score (ADPS) at week 7; secondary endpoints included responder rates, Short-Form McGill Pain Questionnaire (SF-MPQ), Patient Global Impression of Change (PGIC), average daily sleep-interference score (ADSIS), and incidence of treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs).
RESULTS
A greater improvement was noted for each mirogabalin treatment group for change from baseline in ADPS at week 7 compared with both placebo and with pregabalin, although these improvements were not statistically significant. The percentage of 30, 50, and 75% responders and subjects with PGIC improvements was greater in each mirogabalin group versus placebo. Mirogabalin 15 mg BID significantly improved the SF-MPQ sensory (p = 0.0313) and visual analog scale scores (p = 0.0093), and ADSIS (p = 0.0002), versus placebo. Treatment was generally well tolerated; the most frequently reported TEAEs in the mirogabalin groups were somnolence (14.7%) and dizziness (11.0%), and most AEs were mild or moderate even at the highest dose.
CONCLUSIONS
In Asian subjects with DPNP, mirogabalin (5, 10, and 15 mg BID) was well tolerated. Although no significant differences were observed in the primary endpoint, there was a tendency toward improvement of pain with mirogabalin treatment, and this trend was also observed in the secondary endpoints.

1468,32411717,Intravenous Cyclophosphamide in Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. An Open-Label Phase II Study.,"Introduction: Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS) is a disease with high symptom burden, of unknown etiology, with no established treatment. We observed patients with long-standing ME/CFS who got cancer, and who reported improvement of ME/CFS symptoms after chemotherapy including cyclophosphamide, forming the basis for this prospective trial. Materials and methods: This open-label phase II trial included 40 patients with ME/CFS diagnosed by Canadian criteria. Treatment consisted of six intravenous infusions of cyclophosphamide, 600-700 mg/m 2 , given at four-week intervals with follow-up for 18 months, extended to 4 years. Response was defined by self-reported improvements in symptoms by Fatigue score, supported by Short Form 36 (SF-36) scores, physical activity measures and other instruments. Repeated measures of outcome variables were assessed by General linear models. Responses were correlated with specific Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA) alleles. Results: The overall response rate by Fatigue score was 55.0% (22 of 40 patients). Fatigue score and other outcome variables showed significant improvements compared to baseline. The SF-36 Physical Function score increased from mean 33.0 at baseline to 51.5 at 18 months (all patients), and from mean 35.0 to 69.5 among responders. Mean steps per 24 h increased from mean 3,199 at baseline to 4,347 at 18 months (all patients), and from 3,622 to 5,589 among responders. At extended follow-up to 4 years 68% (15 of 22 responders) were still in remission. Patients positive for HLA-DQB1 * 03:03 and/or HLA-C * 07:04 ( n = 12) had significantly higher response rate compared to patients negative for these alleles ( n = 28), 83 vs. 43%, respectively. Nausea and constipation were common grade 1-2 adverse events. There were one suspected unexpected serious adverse reaction (aggravated POTS) and 11 serious adverse events in eight patients. Conclusion: Intravenous cyclophosphamide treatment was feasible for ME/CFS patients and associated with an acceptable toxicity profile. More than half of the patients responded and with prolonged follow-up, a considerable proportion of patients reported ongoing remission. Without a placebo group, clinical response data must be interpreted with caution. We nevertheless believe a future randomized trial is warranted.

1469,31593830,Efficacy of molecularly targeted agents given in the randomised trial SHIVA01 according to the ESMO Scale for Clinical Actionability of molecular Targets.,"BACKGROUND
A randomised trial SHIVA01 compared the efficacy of matched molecularly targeted therapy outside their indications based on a prespecified treatment algorithm versus conventional chemotherapy in patients with metastatic solid tumours who had failed standard of care. No statistical difference was reported between the two groups in terms of progression-free survival (PFS), challenging treatment algorithm. The European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO) Scale for Clinical Actionability of molecular Targets (ESCAT) recently defined criteria to prioritise molecular alterations (MAs) to select anticancer drugs. We aimed to retrospectively evaluate the efficacy of matched molecularly targeted agents (MTAs) given in SHIVA01 according to ESCAT tiers.
PATIENTS AND METHODS
MAs used in SHIVA01 were retrospectively classified into ESCAT tiers, and PFS and overall survival (OS) were compared using log-rank tests.
RESULTS
One hundred fifty-three patients were treated with matched MTAs in SHIVA01. MAs used to allocate MTAs were classified into tiers II, IIIA, IIIB and IVA according to the ESCAT. Median PFS was 2.0 months in tier II, 3.1 in tier IIIA, 1.7 in tier IIIB and 3.2 in tier IVA (p = 0.13). Median OS in tier IIIB was worse than that in tiers II, IIIA and IVA (6.3 months versus 11.7, 11.2 and 12.1, p = 0.002).
CONCLUSIONS
Most MAs used to allocate therapy in SHIVA01 were shown to improve outcomes in other tumour types (tier IIIA). Worst outcome was observed in patients treated based on another type of alteration than the one reported to improve outcomes (tier IIIB), highlighting the crucial impact of the type of the alterations beyond the gene and the signalling pathway.",2019,"No statistical difference was reported between the two groups in terms of progression-free survival (PFS), challenging treatment algorithm.","['One hundred fifty-three patients were treated with matched MTAs in SHIVA01', 'patients with metastatic solid tumours who had failed standard of care']","['IVA', 'conventional chemotherapy']","['progression-free survival (PFS', 'Median PFS', 'Median OS in tier IIIB', 'PFS and overall survival (OS']","[{'cui': 'C1704407', 'cui_str': '100 (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C0332293', 'cui_str': 'Treated with (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0336766', 'cui_str': 'Matches'}, {'cui': 'C1522484', 'cui_str': 'metastatic'}, {'cui': 'C0280100', 'cui_str': 'Solid tumour'}, {'cui': 'C2936643', 'cui_str': 'Standard of Care'}]","[{'cui': 'C0439858', 'cui_str': 'Conventional (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0013217', 'cui_str': 'pharmacotherapy'}]","[{'cui': 'C0242792', 'cui_str': 'Progression-Free Survival'}, {'cui': 'C2939193', 'cui_str': 'Median (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0282416', 'cui_str': 'Overall'}, {'cui': 'C0220921', 'cui_str': 'survival'}]",153.0,0.045081,"No statistical difference was reported between the two groups in terms of progression-free survival (PFS), challenging treatment algorithm.","[{'ForeName': 'A', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Moreira', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Drug Development and Innovation (D3i), Institut Curie, Paris, Saint-Cloud, France.

1470,30498827,Dairy-Based and Energy-Enriched Berry-Based Snacks Improve or Maintain Nutritional and Functional Status in Older People in Home Care.,"OBJECTIVE
Consumption of energy- and nutrient-dense snacks are recommended for older people to maintain adequate nutrition. We evaluated the effects of dairy-based and energy-enriched berry products consumed as snacks on nutritional and functional status among vulnerable older people receiving home care services.
DESIGN
Randomised controlled study.
SETTING AND PARTICIPANTS
The study sample consisted of 85 home care clients, with mean age of 81.9 (SD 7.1) years in the intervention group (n=50) and 83.7 (SD 8.1) years in the control group (n=35), and 72% women in both groups.
INTERVENTION
In the intervention group, the participants consumed both high-protein dairy-based products and energy-enriched berry purées for three months. The snack products provided nearly 300 kcal and 14 g protein per day.
MEASUREMENTS
The Mini Nutritional Assessment (MNA), body mass index (BMI), mid-arm muscular area (MAMA) and concentrations of plasma albumin and prealbumin and blood haemoglobin were used to determine nutritional status, and handgrip strength was used to determine functional status at baseline and after the intervention.
RESULTS
After adjustment for age and gender, the intervention showed a significant effect on MNA scores (2.1, 95% [CI]: 1.0 to 3.3) (p=0.003), albumin concentration (2.0 g/L, 95% [CI]: 1.1 to 3.2) (p=0.006) and handgrip strength of the right hand in women (2.4 kg, 95% [CI]: 1.2 to 3.3) (p=0.007). The MNA scores improved in the intervention group, while albumin concentration and handgrip strength decreased in the control group.
CONCLUSIONS
Regular use of dairy- and energy-enriched berry-based snacks may improve or maintain nutritional and functional status among older people in home care.",2018,"The MNA scores improved in the intervention group, while albumin concentration and handgrip strength decreased in the control group.

1471,31602811,Aflibercept and navigated versus conventional laser in diabetic macular oedema: a 12-month randomized clinical trial.,"PURPOSE
To examine the efficacy of intravitreal aflibercept and navigated laser as compared to intravitreal aflibercept and conventional laser in diabetic macular oedema (DME) treatment.
METHODS
In 12-month randomized clinical trial, 48 eyes of 37 patients with centre-involved DME at Odense University Hospital were randomized 1:1 to receive three monthly injections of aflibercept followed by navigated (group A) or conventional (group B) focal/grid laser. From month four through twelve, patients were examined monthly, and additional injections were given pro re nata (PRN) (central retinal thickness [CRT]>20% from lowest measurement or loss in visual acuity [VA]>5 Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study [ETDRS] letters compared with baseline). Outcome measures; (1) percentage of eyes that needed additional injections after laser in group A and B, (2) mean number of injections in group A and B, and (3) mean change in VA and CRT in group A and B.
RESULTS
In the PRN phase, 60.5% of patients needed additional injections without differences between groups A and B (58.3 versus 63.2%, p > 0.99). The mean number of injections between baseline and month 12 was 4.4 (4.2 versus 4.6, p = 0.41). From baseline to month 12, VA improved by 8.4 ETDRS letters, and CRT was reduced by 97.4 μm (+9.4 versus +7.1 letters, p = 0.17, and -83.2 versus -115.4 μm, p = 0.21).

1472,31607467,"Strategies to improve control of sexually transmissible infections in remote Australian Aboriginal communities: a stepped-wedge, cluster-randomised trial.","BACKGROUND
Remote Australian Aboriginal communities have among the highest diagnosed rates of sexually transmissible infections (STIs) in the world. We did a trial to assess whether continuous improvement strategies related to sexual health could reduce infection rates.
METHODS
In this stepped-wedge, cluster-randomised trial (STIs in remote communities: improved and enhanced primary health care [STRIVE]), we recruited primary health-care centres serving Aboriginal communities in remote areas of Australia. Communities were eligible to participate if they were classified as very remote, had a population predominantly of Aboriginal people, and only had one primary health-care centre serving the population. The health-care centres were grouped into clusters on the basis of geographical proximity to each other, population size, and Aboriginal cultural ties including language connections. Clusters were randomly assigned into three blocks (year 1, year 2, and year 3 clusters) using a computer-generated randomisation algorithm, with minimisation to balance geographical region, population size, and baseline STI testing level. Each year for 3 years, one block of clusters was transitioned into the intervention phase, while those not transitioned continued usual care (control clusters). The intervention phase comprised cycles of reviewing clinical data and modifying systems to support improved STI clinical practice. All investigators and participants were unmasked to the intervention. Primary endpoints were community prevalence and testing coverage in residents aged 16-34 years for Chlamydia trachomatis, Neisseria gonorrhoeae, and Trichomonas vaginalis. We used Poisson regression analyses on the final dataset and compared STI prevalences and testing coverage between control and intervention clusters. All analyses were by intention to treat and models were adjusted for time as an independent covariate in overall analyses. This study was registered with the Australia and New Zealand Clinical Trials Registry, ACTRN12610000358044.
FINDINGS
Between April, 2010, and April, 2011, we recruited 68 primary care centres and grouped them into 24 clusters, which were randomly assigned into year 1 clusters (estimated population aged 16-34 years, n=11 286), year 2 clusters (n=10 288), or year 3 clusters (n=13 304). One primary health-care centre withdrew from the study due to restricted capacity to participate. We detected no difference in the relative prevalence of STIs between intervention and control clusters (adjusted relative risk [RR] 0·97, 95% CI 0·84-1·12; p=0·66). However, testing coverage was substantially higher in intervention clusters (22%) than in control clusters (16%; RR 1·38; 95% CI 1·15-1·65; p=0·0006).
INTERPRETATION

1473,29154794,The relative persuasiveness of narrative versus non-narrative health messages in public health emergency communication: Evidence from a field experiment.,"Previous studies indicated that narrative health messages are more effective than non-narrative messages in influencing health outcomes. However, this body of evidence does not account for differences in health domain, and little is known about the effectiveness of this message execution strategy during public health emergencies. In this study, we examined the relative effectiveness of the two formats in influencing knowledge and perceived response efficacy related to prevention of pandemic influenza, and determined whether effects of message format vary across population sub-groups. Data for the study come from an experiment fielded in 2013 that involved a nationally representative sample of 627 American adults. Participants were randomly assigned to view either a narrative (n=322) or a non-narrative (n=305) video clip containing closely matched information about knowledge and preventive actions related to pandemic influenza, and completed pre- and post-viewing questions assessing knowledge and perceived response efficacy related to the prevention of pandemic influenza. Results indicated that participants in the non-narrative condition reported greater knowledge and rated pandemic influenza prevention measures as more effective compared with those in the narrative condition. Message format effects did not vary across population sub-groups; post-viewing scores of knowledge and perceptions related to pandemic influenza were consistently higher in the non-narrative condition compared with the narrative condition across five socio-demographic groups: age, gender, education, race/ethnicity and income.

1474,31476260,Percutaneous repair or medical treatment for secondary mitral regurgitation: outcomes at 2 years.,"AIMS
The MITRA-FR trial showed that among symptomatic patients with severe secondary mitral regurgitation, percutaneous repair did not reduce the risk of death or hospitalization for heart failure at 12 months compared with guideline-directed medical treatment alone. We report the 24-month outcome from this trial.
METHODS AND RESULTS
At 37 centres, we randomly assigned 304 symptomatic heart failure patients with severe secondary mitral regurgitation (effective regurgitant orifice area >20 mm 2 or regurgitant volume >30 mL), and left ventricular ejection fraction between 15% and 40% to undergo percutaneous valve repair plus medical treatment (intervention group, n = 152) or medical treatment alone (control group, n = 152). The primary efficacy outcome was the composite of all-cause death and unplanned hospitalization for heart failure at 12 months. At 24 months, all-cause death and unplanned hospitalization for heart failure occurred in 63.8% of patients (97/152) in the intervention group and 67.1% (102/152) in the control group [hazard ratio (HR) 1.01, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.77-1.34]. All-cause mortality occurred in 34.9% of patients (53/152) in the intervention group and 34.2% (52/152) in the control group (HR 1.02, 95% CI 0.70-1.50). Unplanned hospitalization for heart failure occurred in 55.9% of patients (85/152) in the intervention group and 61.8% (94/152) in the control group (HR 0.97, 95% CI 0.72-1.30).

1475,31600474,The Impact of Dose and Dose Frequency on Word Learning by Kindergarten Children With Developmental Language Disorder During Interactive Book Reading.,"Purpose The goal was to determine whether interactive book reading outcomes for children with developmental language disorder (DLD) were affected by manipulation of dose (i.e., the number of exposures to the target word during a book reading session) and dose frequency (i.e., the number of repeated book reading sessions) and whether pretreatment factors predicted treatment response variation. Method Thirty-four kindergarten children with DLD (aged 5;0-6;2 [years;months]) were taught 1 set of words using the Dose 6 and Dose Frequency 6 format from a prior study (Storkel, Voelmle, et al., 2017) and taught a different set of words using an alternative format, either Dose 4 × Dose Frequency 9 or Dose 9 × Dose Frequency 4, determined through random assignment. Word learning was tracked for each treatment via a definition task prior to, during, and after treatment. Results Results showed that children with DLD learned a significant number of words during treatment regardless of the dose and dose frequency format but that significant forgetting of newly learned words occurred in all formats once treatment was withdrawn. Individual differences in word learning were related to Clinical Evaluation of Language Fundamentals Core Language and Understanding Spoken Paragraphs scores. Conclusion When administered at an adequate intensity, variation in the dose and dose frequency of interactive book reading does not appear to influence word learning by children with DLD. Although interactive book reading continues to show promise as an effective word learning intervention for children with DLD, further development is needed to enhance the effectiveness of this treatment approach.

1476,31492643,Cognitive behavioural therapy for irritable bowel syndrome: 24-month follow-up of participants in the ACTIB randomised trial.,"BACKGROUND
Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is common, affecting 10-20% of the adult population worldwide, with many people reporting ongoing symptoms despite first-line therapies. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) is recommended in guidelines for refractory IBS but there is insufficient access to CBT for IBS and uncertainty about whether benefits last in the longer term. Assessing Cognitive behavioural Therapy for IBS (ACTIB) was a large, randomised, controlled trial of two forms of CBT for patients with refractory IBS. ACTIB results showed that, at 12 months, both forms of CBT for IBS were significantly more effective than treatment as usual at reducing IBS symptom severity in adults with refractory IBS. This follow-up study aimed to evaluate 24-month clinical outcomes of participants in the ACTIB trial.
METHODS
In the ACTIB three-group, randomised, controlled trial, 558 adults with refractory IBS were randomly allocated to receive either therapist-delivered telephone CBT (telephone-CBT group), web-based CBT with minimal therapist support (web-CBT group), or treatment as usual (TAU group) and were followed up for 12 months. Participants were adults with refractory IBS (clinically significant symptoms for ≥12 months despite being offered first-line therapies), recruited by letter and opportunistically from 74 general practices and three gastroenterology centres in London and the south of England (UK) between May 1, 2014, and March 31, 2016. Primary outcome measures were IBS Symptom Severity Score (IBS-SSS) and Work and Social Adjustment Scale (WSAS), assessed in the intention-to-treat (ITT) population with multiple imputation. This study was a non-prespecified naturalistic follow-up and analysis of the participants of the ACTIB trial at 24 months assessing the same outcomes as the original trial. Outcome measures were completed online by participants or a paper questionnaire was posted, or telephone follow-up undertaken. The ACTIB trial is registered with the International Standard Randomised Controlled Trial Number registry, number ISRCTN44427879.
FINDINGS
24-month follow-up of outcomes was achieved for 323 (58%) of 558 participants: 119 (64%) of 186 in the telephone-CBT group, 99 (54%) of 185 in the web-CBT group, and 105 (56%) of 187 in the TAU group. At 24 months, mean IBS-SSS was 40·5 points (95% CI 15·0 to 66·0; p=0·002) lower in the telephone-CBT group and 12·9 points (-12·9 to 38·8; p=0·33) lower in the web-CBT group than in the TAU group. The mean WSAS score was 3·1 points (1·3 to 4·9; p<0·001) lower in the telephone-CBT group and 1·9 points (0·1 to 3·7; p=0·036) lower in the web-CBT group than in the TAU group. A clinically significant IBS-SSS change (≥50 points) from baseline to 24 months was found in 84 (71%) of 119 participants in the telephone-CBT group, in 62 (63%) of 99 in the web-CBT group, and in 48 (46%) of 105 in the TAU group. In total 41 adverse events were reported between 12 to 24 months: 11 in the telephone-CBT group, 15 in the web-CBT group, and 15 in the TAU group. Of these, eight were reported as gastrointestinal related, five as psychological, and six as musculoskeletal. There were no adverse events related to treatment.
INTERPRETATION
At 24-month follow-up, sustained improvements in IBS were seen in both CBT groups compared with TAU, although some previous gains were reduced compared with the 12-month outcomes. IBS-specific CBT has the potential to provide long-term improvement in IBS, achievable within a usual clinical setting. Increasing access to CBT for IBS could achieve long-term patient benefit.

1477,31397714,Antibiotic Exposure Profiles in Trials Comparing Intensity of Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy.,"OBJECTIVES
To determine whether the probability of target attainment over 72 hours of initial therapy with beta-lactam (cefepime, ceftazidime, piperacillin/tazobactam) and carbapenem (imipenem, meropenem) antibiotics were substantially influenced between intensive and less-intensive continuous renal replacement therapy groups in the Acute Renal Failure Trial Network trial and The RENAL Replacement Therapy Study trial.
DESIGN
The probability of target attainment was calculated using pharmacodynamic targets of percentage of time that free serum concentrations (fT): 1) were above the target organism's minimum inhibitory concentration (≥ fT > 1 × minimum inhibitory concentration); 2) were above four times the minimum inhibitory concentration (≥ % fT > 4 × minimum inhibitory concentration); and 3) were always above the minimum inhibitory concentration (≥ 100% fT > minimum inhibitory concentration) for the first 72 hours of antibiotic therapy. Demographic data and effluent rates from the Acute Renal Failure Trial Network and RENAL Replacement Therapy Study trials were used. Optimal doses were defined as the dose achieving greater than or equal to 90% probability of target attainment.
SETTING
Monte Carlo simulations using demographic data from Acute Renal Failure Trial Network and RENAL Replacement Therapy Study trials.
PATIENTS
Virtual critically ill patients requiring continuous renal replacement therapy.
INTERVENTIONS
None.
MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS
The pharmacodynamic target of fT greater than 1 × minimum inhibitory concentration led to similarly high rates of predicted response with antibiotic doses often used in continuous renal replacement therapy. Achieving 100% fT greater than minimum inhibitory concentration is a more stringent benchmark compared with T greater than 4 × minimum inhibitory concentration with standard antibiotic dosing. The intensity of effluent flow rates (less intensive vs intensive) did not substantially influence the probability of target attainment of antibiotic dosing regimens regardless of pharmacodynamic target.
CONCLUSIONS
Antibiotic pharmacodynamic target attainment rates likely were not meaningfully different in the low- and high-intensity treatment arms of the Acute Renal Failure Trial Network and RENAL Replacement Therapy Study Investigators trials.",2019,"The intensity of effluent flow rates (less intensive vs intensive) did not substantially influence the probability of target attainment of antibiotic dosing regimens regardless of pharmacodynamic target.

1478,32412387,The cost effectiveness of pembrolizumab versus chemotherapy or atezolizumab as second-line therapy for advanced urothelial carcinoma in the United States.,"AIMS: Pembrolizumab demonstrated significantly prolonged overall survival (OS) vs. chemotherapy in the Phase III KEYNOTE-045 trial, and is approved in the US for the treatment of patients with locally advanced or metastatic urothelial carcinoma (mUC) who progressed after platinum-based chemotherapy. Using longer follow-up and individual patient-data from KEYNOTE-045, this study evaluates the cost-effectiveness of pembrolizumab vs. chemotherapy or atezolizumab from a US payer perspective. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A partitioned-survival model was developed over a 20-year time horizon. Progression-free survival (PFS) and OS for pembrolizumab and chemotherapy were extrapolated using a piecewise modelling approach, where patient-level data from KEYNOTE-045 were used for the initial period followed by parametric distributions. OS of atezolizumab was estimated by indirect treatment comparisons based on KEYNOTE-045 and IMvigor211. Different scenarios were explored in the absence of indirect comparisons on PFS and time-on-treatment (ToT) between pembrolizumab and atezolizumab. Drug acquisition/administration, disease management, adverse events and terminal care costs were considered. RESULTS: Compared with chemotherapy, pembrolizumab resulted in a mean gain of 1.33 life-years and 1.14 quality-adjusted life-years (QALYs) and an incremental cost of $106,299, yielding an incremental cost-effectiveness ratio of $93,481/QALY gained. Pembrolizumab dominated atezolizumab in extending patients' life by 0.89 years and 0.76 QALYs, while reducing costs by $26,458. Key drivers of cost-effectiveness included survival extrapolation, OS hazard ratio of pembrolizumab vs. atezolizumab and time horizon. Pembrolizumab had a 66% and 100% probability of being cost-effective vs. chemotherapy and atezolizumab, respectively, at a $100,000 willingness-to-pay threshold. LIMITATIONS AND CONCLUSIONS: Uncertainties remain with extrapolated PFS and OS for pembrolizumab, OS indirect comparison and ToT for atezolizumab. Despite these limitations, the model used robust methods to estimate key clinical endpoints with patient-level data from longer follow-up of KEYNOTE-045.

Yet, its factor structure has received minimal attention in the youth alliance literature. This study investigated the factor structure of the WAI-S in psychotherapy for adolescent depression and explored its measurement invariance across time, therapeutic approaches and patients' and therapists' perspectives. The existence of method effects associated with the negatively worded items of the scale was also assessed. Method: The setting of this study is the IMPACT trial, a randomized controlled trial assessing the effects of three therapeutic interventions in the treatment of adolescent depression. The WAI-S was completed at 6, 12 and 36 weeks after randomization by 338 adolescents and 159 therapists. Data were analysed using confirmatory factor analysis. Results: The hypothesized Bond-Task-Goal alliance structure was not supported and a general, one-factor model was found to be more psychometrically valid.

1480,31663905,Development and Validation of a Nomogram for Early Detection of Malignant Gallbladder Lesions.,"OBJECTIVES
Preoperative decision-making for differentiating malignant from benign lesions in the gallbladder remains challenging. We aimed to create a diagnostic nomogram to identify gallbladder cancer (GBC), especially for incidental GBC (IGBC), before surgical resection.
METHODS
A total of 587 consecutive patients with pathologically confirmed gallbladder lesions from a hospital were randomly assigned to a training cohort (70%) and an internal validation cohort (30%), with 287 patients from other centers as an external validation cohort. Radiological features were developed by the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator logistic regression model. Significant radiological features and independent clinical factors, identified by multivariate analyses, were used to construct a nomogram.
RESULTS
A diagnostic nomogram was established by age, CA19.9, and 6 radiological features. The values of area under the curve in the internal and external validation cohorts were up to 0.91 and 0.89, respectively. The calibration curves for probability of GBC showed optimal agreement between nomogram prediction and actual observation. Compared with previous methods, it demonstrated superior sensitivity (91.5%) and accuracy (85.1%) in the diagnosis of GBC. The accuracy using the nomogram was significantly higher in GBC groups compared with that by radiologists in the training cohort (P < 0.001) and similarly in each cohort. Notably, most of the IGBC, which were misdiagnosed as benign lesions, were successfully identified using this nomogram.
DISCUSSION

1481,32411850,Ups and downs of a peer-based smoking cessation intervention help tailored to hospital-employees with low socioeconomic status: The RESPEKT Study.,"INTRODUCTION
Smoking is one of the most important determinants of socioeconomic inequality in mortality. Few studies have tested which interventions are effective in smokers with low socioeconomic status (SES).
METHODS
All hospitals in the Capital Region of Denmark were included and randomized to intervention or control groups. The target-group was smokers with low SES. Intervention hospitals: smokers in the target-group assisted researchers to tailor a group-based smoking cessation intervention. Further they helped recruiting smoking colleagues and motivating them to stay abstinent. Control hospitals: 'as usual'. Unforeseen organizational challenges led to a change of study design; the hospital-level assessment was reduced to two cross-sectional surveys.
RESULTS
Response rates in hospitals' smoking status survey were very low. Smoking status was reported by 1876 out of 7003 employees at baseline and 2280 out of 7496 employees at 1-year follow-up. Two cross-sectional surveys showed no significant difference in self-reported smoking at 1-year follow-up between intervention and control hospitals (p=0.262). We recruited 100 smokers in the group-based smoking cessation intervention tailored to smokers with low SES (corresponding to approx. 10% of smokers in target-group); 32.4% of these were validated as continuously abstinent at 6 months follow-up.
CONCLUSIONS
Involving smokers with low SES as partners at an early stage of study design facilitated both recruitment and development of the intervention. Despite high validated long-term abstinence rates in smoking cessation groups in the intervention hospitals we found no apparent effect of the intervention at hospital-level after one year. However, larger involvement of the target-group seems feasible and is recommended.",2018,Two cross-sectional surveys showed no significant difference in self-reported smoking at 1-year follow-up between intervention and control hospitals (p=0.262).,"['All hospitals in the Capital Region of Denmark', '1876 out of 7003 employees at baseline and 2280 out of 7496 employees at 1-year follow-up', '100 smokers in the group-based smoking cessation intervention tailored to smokers with low SES (corresponding to approx', 'hospital-employees with low socioeconomic status', 'smokers with low socioeconomic status (SES']","['Ups and downs of a peer-based smoking cessation intervention', 'target-group assisted researchers to tailor a group-based smoking cessation intervention']",[],"[{'cui': 'C0019994', 'cui_str': 'Hospitals'}, {'cui': 'C0006909', 'cui_str': 'Capital'}, {'cui': 'C0017446', 'cui_str': 'Geographic Locations'}, {'cui': 'C0011318', 'cui_str': 'Denmark'}, {'cui': 'C0599987', 'cui_str': 'Employee'}, {'cui': 'C0168634', 'cui_str': 'BaseLine dental cement'}, {'cui': 'C0439234', 'cui_str': 'year'}, {'cui': 'C0589120', 'cui_str': 'Follow-up status'}, {'cui': 'C1704407', 'cui_str': '100'}, {'cui': 'C0337664', 'cui_str': 'Smoker'}, {'cui': 'C0439745', 'cui_str': 'Grouped'}, {'cui': 'C0002055', 'cui_str': 'Alkali'}, {'cui': 'C0085134', 'cui_str': 'Stopping Smoking'}, {'cui': 'C0184661', 'cui_str': 'Procedure'}, {'cui': 'C0205251', 'cui_str': 'Low'}, {'cui': 'C0086996', 'cui_str': 'Socioeconomic Status'}]","[{'cui': 'C0013080', 'cui_str': 'Trisomy 21'}, {'cui': 'C0002055', 'cui_str': 'Alkali'}, {'cui': 'C0085134', 'cui_str': 'Stopping Smoking'}, {'cui': 'C0184661', 'cui_str': 'Procedure'}, {'cui': 'C0439745', 'cui_str': 'Grouped'}, {'cui': 'C0018896', 'cui_str': 'Helping Behavior'}, {'cui': 'C0035173', 'cui_str': 'Researcher'}, {'cui': 'C0441835', 'cui_str': 'Group A'}]",[],7496.0,0.019698,Two cross-sectional surveys showed no significant difference in self-reported smoking at 1-year follow-up between intervention and control hospitals (p=0.262).,"[{'ForeName': 'Charlotta', 'Initials': 'C', 'LastName': 'Pisinger', 'Affiliation': 'Center for Clinical Research and Prevention, Bispebjerg-Frederiksberg Hospital, Copenhagen, Denmark.'}, {'ForeName': 'Maj-Britt Bjerre', 'Initials': 'MB', 'LastName': 'Koch', 'Affiliation': 'Rygestopkonsulenterne Aps.'}, {'ForeName': 'Else', 'Initials': 'E', 'LastName': 'Hjortsø', 'Affiliation': 'Capital Region of Denmark, Denmark.'}, {'ForeName': 'Torben', 'Initials': 'T', 'LastName': 'Jørgensen', 'Affiliation': 'Institute of Public Health, University of Copenhagen, Copenhagen, Denmark.'}, {'ForeName': 'Charlotte', 'Initials': 'C', 'LastName': 'Glümer', 'Affiliation': 'Center for Diabetes, Copenhagen, Denmark.'}]",Tobacco prevention & cessation,['10.18332/tpc/91426']
1482,28969438,Adjunctive Bright Light Therapy for Bipolar Depression: A Randomized Double-Blind Placebo-Controlled Trial.,"OBJECTIVE
Patients with bipolar disorder have recurrent major depression, residual mood symptoms, and limited treatment options. Building on promising pilot data, the authors conducted a 6-week randomized double-blind placebo-controlled trial to investigate the efficacy of adjunctive bright light therapy at midday for bipolar depression. The aims were to determine remission rate, depression symptom level, and rate of mood polarity switch, as well as to explore sleep quality.
METHOD
The study enrolled depressed adults with bipolar I or II disorder who were receiving stable dosages of antimanic medication (excluding patients with hypomania or mania, mixed symptoms, or rapid cycling). Patients were randomly assigned to treatment with either 7,000-lux bright white light or 50-lux dim red placebo light (N=23 for each group). Symptoms were assessed weekly with the Structured Interview Guide for the Hamilton Depression Scale With Atypical Depression Supplement (SIGH-ADS), the Mania Rating Scale, and the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index. Remission was defined as having a SIGH-ADS score of 8 or less.
RESULTS
At baseline, both groups had moderate depression and no hypomanic or manic symptoms. Compared with the placebo light group, the group treated with bright white light experienced a significantly higher remission rate (68.2% compared with 22.2%; adjusted odds ratio=12.6) at weeks 4-6 and significantly lower depression scores (9.2 [SD=6.6] compared with 14.9 [SD=9.2]; adjusted β=-5.91) at the endpoint visit. No mood polarity switches were observed. Sleep quality improved in both groups and did not differ significantly between them.
CONCLUSIONS
The data from this study provide robust evidence that supports the efficacy of midday bright light therapy for bipolar depression.",2018,"Sleep quality improved in both groups and did not differ significantly between them.

1483,32411728,Computed Tomography Angiography in Peripheral Arterial Disease: Comparison of Three Image Acquisition Techniques to Optimize Vascular Enhancement-Randomized Controlled Trial.,"Objectives: To prospectively compare three image acquisition techniques in lower extremity CT angiography: the ""standard"" anterograde technique (SA), the adaptive anterograde technique (AA), and the retrograde acquisition technique (RA). Materials and Methods: Sixty consecutive patients were prospectively enrolled and randomized into three acquisition groups: 20 patients were evaluated with SA, 20 with AA as described by Qanadli et al., and 20 with caudocranial acquisition from the feet to the abdominal aorta (RA). Quantitative image quality was assessed by measuring the intraluminal attenuation at different levels of interest, with a total of 536 levels. Qualitative image quality was assessed by two radiologists in consensus using a Likert scale to rate the arterial enhancement and venous return. For each patient and limb, the presence of occlusive or aneurysmal disease was documented. Results: In quantitative analysis, RA showed lower attenuation values than SA and AA ( p < 0.01). AA showed the highest and most homogeneous attenuation along the arterial tree. In qualitative analysis, AA had the lowest rate of non-diagnostic vascular segments (3.9%) compared to SA and RA (4.7 and 13.1%, respectively, p < 0.01). The influence of venous return was significantly different among the different techniques; venous contamination was particularly prevalent at the aortic level with RA (9.4% of patients, 0% with SA and AA, p < 0.01). The presence of stenosis or occlusion had no significant influence on the attenuation values across all levels and acquisition techniques. Conversely, the presence of aneurysmal disease had a significant effect on the luminal attenuation in AA (higher attenuation) and RA (lower attenuation) at the iliac ( p = 0.03 and 0.04, respectively) and femoral levels ( p = 0.02 and <0.01, respectively). Conclusion: Considering both quantitative and qualitative analysis, AA performed better than SA and RA, providing the highest percentage of optimal vascular enhancement. AA should be recommended as the technique of choice, specifically in the presence of aneurysmal disease. Alternatively, SA can be useful in case of renal failure, as the test bolus is unnecessary. Finally, the increasing availability of fast CT systems will likely overcome the limitations of RA.",2020,"Considering both quantitative and qualitative analysis, AA performed better than SA and RA, providing the highest percentage of optimal vascular enhancement.","['Peripheral Arterial Disease', 'Sixty consecutive patients were prospectively enrolled and randomized into three acquisition groups: 20 patients were evaluated with SA, 20 with AA as described by Qanadli et al., and 20 with caudocranial acquisition from the feet to the abdominal aorta (RA']","['standard"" anterograde technique (SA', 'Computed Tomography Angiography']","['Quantitative image quality', 'femoral levels', 'venous return', 'lowest rate of non-diagnostic vascular segments', 'Qualitative image quality', 'luminal attenuation in AA']","[{'cui': 'C0085096', 'cui_str': 'Peripheral vascular disease'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patient'}, {'cui': 'C0439745', 'cui_str': 'Grouped'}, {'cui': 'C0016504', 'cui_str': 'Foot structure'}, {'cui': 'C0003484', 'cui_str': 'Abdominal aorta structure'}]","[{'cui': 'C0038137', 'cui_str': 'standards'}, {'cui': 'C0589502', 'cui_str': 'Antegrade direction'}, {'cui': 'C0025664', 'cui_str': 'methods'}, {'cui': 'C0040405', 'cui_str': 'Computerized axial tomography'}, {'cui': 'C0002978', 'cui_str': 'Angiography'}]","[{'cui': 'C0392762', 'cui_str': 'Quantitative'}, {'cui': 'C1846009', 'cui_str': 'Intrauterine growth restriction, metaphyseal dysplasia, adrenal hypoplasia congenita, and genital anomaly syndrome'}, {'cui': 'C0332306', 'cui_str': 'Quality'}, {'cui': 'C0015811', 'cui_str': 'Bone structure of femur'}, {'cui': 'C0441889', 'cui_str': 'Levels'}, {'cui': 'C0042449', 'cui_str': 'Venous structure'}, {'cui': 'C0332156', 'cui_str': 'Return to'}, {'cui': 'C0205251', 'cui_str': 'Low'}, {'cui': 'C0011900', 'cui_str': 'Diagnosis'}, {'cui': 'C0005847', 'cui_str': 'Blood vessel structure'}, {'cui': 'C0441635', 'cui_str': 'Segment'}, {'cui': 'C0205556', 'cui_str': 'Qualitative'}, {'cui': 'C0699493', 'cui_str': 'Luminal'}]",60.0,0.040684,"Considering both quantitative and qualitative analysis, AA performed better than SA and RA, providing the highest percentage of optimal vascular enhancement.","[{'ForeName': 'David C', 'Initials': 'DC', 'LastName': 'Rotzinger', 'Affiliation': 'Cardiothoracic and Vascular Division, Department of Diagnostic and Interventional Radiology, Lausanne University Hospital, Lausanne, Switzerland.'}, {'ForeName': 'Tri-Linh', 'Initials': 'TL', 'LastName': 'Lu', 'Affiliation': 'Cardiothoracic and Vascular Division, Department of Diagnostic and Interventional Radiology, Lausanne University Hospital, Lausanne, Switzerland.'}, {'ForeName': 'Aida', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Kawkabani', 'Affiliation': ""Groupement Hospitalier de L'Ouest Lémanique, Nyon, Switzerland.""}, {'ForeName': 'Pedro-Manuel', 'Initials': 'PM', 'LastName': 'Marques-Vidal', 'Affiliation': 'Faculty of Biology and Medicine, University of Lausanne, Lausanne, Switzerland.'}, {'ForeName': 'Gianluca', 'Initials': 'G', 'LastName': 'Fetz', 'Affiliation': ""Clinica Sant'Anna, Sorengo, Switzerland.""}, {'ForeName': 'Salah D', 'Initials': 'SD', 'LastName': 'Qanadli', 'Affiliation': 'Cardiothoracic and Vascular Division, Department of Diagnostic and Interventional Radiology, Lausanne University Hospital, Lausanne, Switzerland.'}]",Frontiers in cardiovascular medicine,['10.3389/fcvm.2020.00068']
1484,32411853,The TOBg Tobacco Treatment Guidelines for Adolescents: A real-world pilot study.,"INTRODUCTION
We conducted a pilot study to: 1) obtain feedback from prevention practitioners in terms of their satisfaction, knowledge, and self-efficacy following exposure to the Tobacco Treatment Guidelines for Adolescents (TOBg Guidelines); and 2) examine the effectiveness of a school-based intervention based on the TOBg Guidelines on quit rates among a sample of adolescent tobacco users.
METHODS
Two parallel studies were conducted. In Study 1, prevention practitioners were exposed to a 1-day training in the TOBg Guidelines with assessment occurring before, immediately after, and at 6 months following the training. In Study 2, participating adolescent smokers were exposed to a 3-session group-based smoking cessation intervention that drew on the TOBg Guidelines and was delivered by practitioners trained in Study 1. The primary outcome measure was self-reported smoking status assessed at 1 month and at 6 months following baseline.
RESULTS
A total of 18 prevention practitioners and 65 adolescent tobacco users participated in the pilot study. The majority of practitioners reported high rates of satisfaction with the TOBg Guidelines and indicated that the guidelines positively influenced the manner in which they addressed tobacco use with adolescents. Prevention practitioners' self-efficacy for intervening with adolescent smokers was also significantly increased following exposure to the TOBg Guidelines and training. Among adolescents exposed to the school-based intervention, 62.5% and 23.1% had reduced smoking by 50% or more at 1 month and at 6 months follow-up, respectively.

1485,31177999,Effects of Mediterranean diet supplemented with lean pork on blood pressure and markers of cardiovascular risk: findings from the MedPork trial.,"The Mediterranean diet offers a range of health benefits. However, previous studies indicate that the restricted consumption of red meat in the diet may affect long-term sustainability in non-Mediterranean countries. A 24-week randomised controlled parallel cross-over design compared a Mediterranean diet supplemented with 2-3 serves per week of fresh, lean pork (MedPork) with a low-fat control diet (LF). Thirty-three participants at risk of CVD followed each intervention for 8 weeks, with an 8-week washout period separating interventions. The primary outcome was home-measured systolic blood pressure. Secondary outcomes included diastolic blood pressure, fasting lipids, glucose, insulin, C-reactive protein (CRP), body composition and dietary adherence. During the MedPork intervention, participants achieved high adherence to dietary guidelines. Compared with the MedPork intervention, the LF intervention led to greater reductions in weight (Δ = -0·65; 95 % CI -0·04, -1·25 kg, P = 0·04), BMI (Δ = -0·25; 95 % CI -0·03, -0·47 kg/m2, P = 0·01) and waist circumference (Δ = -1·40; 95 % CI -0·45, -2·34 cm, P < 0·01). No significant differences were observed for blood pressure, lipids, glucose, insulin or CRP.

1486,32411753,"Investigation of nicotinamide as more than an anti-phosphorus drug in chronic hemodialysis patients: a single-center, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial.","Background
Hyperphosphatemia is a common complication of late-stage chronic kidney disease (CKD). Nicotinamide (NAM) has been reported as an adjunctive therapy for hyperphosphatasemia, but the effect of NAM on fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) and Klotho has rarely been reported.
Methods
We randomly assigned 98 patients who underwent regular hemodialysis to received NAM (0.5-1.5 g per day, or 1-3 tablets per day) or placebo (1-3 tablets per day) as an add-on therapy of calcium-based phosphorus binders in a 1:1 ratio. All enrollments were followed-up for 52 weeks. We investigated the serum phosphorus as the primary outcome and serum FGF23 and Klotho as the secondary outcomes. Abdominal aortic calcification (AAC), which had a good correlation with coronary calcification was also compared between the two groups.
Results
In total, 37 patients in the placebo group and 35 patients in the NAM group completed the 52-week follow-up. Compared with the placebo group, the NAM group showed a significant decrease of serum phosphorus at the 8 th , 12 th , 20 th , 44 th , and 52 nd week. There was a declining trend of FGF23 and Klotho in both the placebo and NAM groups. Linear mixed models (LMMs) for overall comparisons by repeated measures of analysis of variance (ANOVA) revealed a significant decrease of FGF23 and slower declining rate of Klotho in the NAM group. No significant difference of AAC was detected between the two groups (P=0.805).
Conclusions
NAM can not only further decrease the phosphorus level but also reduce the FGF23 level and slow down the descending rate of Klotho in chronic hemodialysis patients.",2020,"Compared with the placebo group, the NAM group showed a significant decrease of serum phosphorus at the 8 th , 12 th , 20 th , 44 th , and 52 nd week.","['chronic hemodialysis patients', '98 patients who underwent', 'late-stage chronic kidney disease (CKD', '37 patients in the']","['calcium-based phosphorus binders', 'Nicotinamide (NAM', 'regular hemodialysis to received NAM', 'NAM', 'nicotinamide', 'placebo']","['serum phosphorus', 'phosphorus level', 'Abdominal aortic calcification (AAC', 'FGF23 and Klotho', 'FGF23', 'AAC']","[{'cui': 'C1740835', 'cui_str': 'Chronic haemodialysis'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patient'}, {'cui': 'C1279941', 'cui_str': 'Late stage'}, {'cui': 'C1561643', 'cui_str': 'Chronic kidney disease'}]","[{'cui': 'C0006675', 'cui_str': 'Calcium'}, {'cui': 'C0002055', 'cui_str': 'Alkali'}, {'cui': 'C0031705', 'cui_str': 'Phosphorus'}, {'cui': 'C0179302', 'cui_str': 'Binder'}, {'cui': 'C0028027', 'cui_str': 'Niacinamide'}, {'cui': 'C0205272', 'cui_str': 'Regular'}, {'cui': 'C0019004', 'cui_str': 'Hemodialysis'}, {'cui': 'C0032042', 'cui_str': 'Sham Treatment'}]","[{'cui': 'C0229671', 'cui_str': 'Serum'}, {'cui': 'C0031705', 'cui_str': 'Phosphorus'}, {'cui': 'C0441889', 'cui_str': 'Levels'}, {'cui': 'C0000726', 'cui_str': 'Abdominal'}, {'cui': 'C1096249', 'cui_str': 'Aortic calcification'}, {'cui': 'C0962301', 'cui_str': 'Fibroblast growth factor 23'}, {'cui': 'C1144173', 'cui_str': 'KL protein, human'}]",98.0,0.358814,"Compared with the placebo group, the NAM group showed a significant decrease of serum phosphorus at the 8 th , 12 th , 20 th , 44 th , and 52 nd week.","[{'ForeName': 'Xiang-Yang', 'Initials': 'XY', 'LastName': 'Liu', 'Affiliation': 'NHC Key Lab of Hormones and Development (Tianjin Medical University), Tianjin Key Lab of Metabolic Diseases, Metabolic Diseases Hospital & Institute of Endocrinology, Tianjin Medical University, Tianjin 300070, China.'}, {'ForeName': 'Jing-Rui', 'Initials': 'JR', 'LastName': 'Yao', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Nephrology, Tianjin Haihe Hospital, Tianjin 300300, China.'}, {'ForeName': 'Rong', 'Initials': 'R', 'LastName': 'Xu', 'Affiliation': 'NHC Key Lab of Hormones and Development (Tianjin Medical University), Tianjin Key Lab of Metabolic Diseases, Metabolic Diseases Hospital & Institute of Endocrinology, Tianjin Medical University, Tianjin 300070, China.'}, {'ForeName': 'Lin-Xin', 'Initials': 'LX', 'LastName': 'Xu', 'Affiliation': 'NHC Key Lab of Hormones and Development (Tianjin Medical University), Tianjin Key Lab of Metabolic Diseases, Metabolic Diseases Hospital & Institute of Endocrinology, Tianjin Medical University, Tianjin 300070, China.'}, {'ForeName': 'Yue-Feng', 'Initials': 'YF', 'LastName': 'Zhang', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Nephrology, Tianjin Haihe Hospital, Tianjin 300300, China.'}, {'ForeName': 'Shan', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Lu', 'Affiliation': 'NHC Key Lab of Hormones and Development (Tianjin Medical University), Tianjin Key Lab of Metabolic Diseases, Metabolic Diseases Hospital & Institute of Endocrinology, Tianjin Medical University, Tianjin 300070, China.'}, {'ForeName': 'Zhi-Heng', 'Initials': 'ZH', 'LastName': 'Xing', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Radiology, Tianjin Haihe Hospital, Tianjin 300300, China.'}, {'ForeName': 'Li-Ping', 'Initials': 'LP', 'LastName': 'Fan', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Nephrology, Tianjin Haihe Hospital, Tianjin 300300, China.'}, {'ForeName': 'Zhong-Hua', 'Initials': 'ZH', 'LastName': 'Qin', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Clinical Laboratory, Tianjin Haihe Hospital, Tianjin 300300, China.'}, {'ForeName': 'Bei', 'Initials': 'B', 'LastName': 'Sun', 'Affiliation': 'NHC Key Lab of Hormones and Development (Tianjin Medical University), Tianjin Key Lab of Metabolic Diseases, Metabolic Diseases Hospital & Institute of Endocrinology, Tianjin Medical University, Tianjin 300070, China.'}]",Annals of translational medicine,['10.21037/atm.2020.03.228']
1487,32411845,Passive exposure to e-cigarette emissions: Immediate respiratory effects.,"INTRODUCTION
The present work examined the effect of passive exposure to electronic-cigarette (e-cigarette) emissions on respiratory mechanics and exhaled inflammatory biomarkers.
METHODS
A cross-over experimental study was conducted with 40 healthy nonsmokers, 18-35 years old with normal physical examination and spirometry, with body mass index <30 kg/m 2 , who were exposed to e-cigarette emissions produced by a smoker, according to a standardized protocol based on two resistance settings, 0.5 ohm and 1.5 ohm, for e-cigarette use. All participants underwent a 30-minute control (no emissions) and two experimental sessions (0.5 and 1.5 ohm exposure) in a 35 m 3 room. The following Impulse Oscillometry (IOS) parameters were measured at pre and post sessions: impedance, resistance, reactance, resonant frequency ( fres ), frequency dependence of resistance ( fdr =R5-R20), reactance area (AX), and fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO). Differences between pre and post measurements were compared using t-tests and Wilcoxon signed rank tests, while analysis of variance (ANOVA) was used for comparisons between experimental sessions (registered under ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT03102684).
RESULTS
IOS and FeNO parameters showed no significant changes during the control session. For IOS during the 1.5 ohm exposure session, fres increased significantly from 11.38 Hz at baseline to 12.16 Hz post exposure (p=0.047). FeNO decreased significantly from 24.16 ppb at baseline to 22.35 ppb post exposure in the 0.5 ohm session (p=0.006).
CONCLUSIONS

1488,31524123,The effects of supplementing maternal and infant diets with lipid-based nutrient supplements on physical activity and sedentary behaviour at preschool age in Ghana.,"Evidence on whether nutritional supplementation affects physical activity (PA) during early childhood is limited. We examined the long-term effects of lipid-based nutrient supplements (LNS) on total PA, moderate-to-vigorous PA (MVPA) and sedentary behaviour (SB) of children at 4-6 years using an accelerometer for 1 week. Their mothers were enrolled in the International Lipid-based Nutrient Supplement-DYAD randomised controlled trial in Ghana, assigned to daily LNS or multiple micronutrients (MMN) during pregnancy through 6 months postpartum or Fe and folic acid (IFA) during pregnancy and placebo for 6 months postpartum. From 6 to 18 months, children in the LNS group received LNS; the other two groups received no supplements. Analysis was done with intention to treat comparing two groups: LNS v. non-LNS (MMN+ IFA). Of the sub-sample of 375 children fitted with accelerometers, 353 provided sufficient data. Median vector magnitude (VM) count was 1374 (interquartile range (IQR) 309), and percentages of time in MVPA and SB were 4·8 (IQR 2) and 31 (IQR 8) %, respectively.

1489,32411854,Short-term impact of the EuroPean Accredited Curriculum on Tobacco Treatment Training (EPACTT) program.,"INTRODUCTION
The aim of this pilot study was to assess the short-term effectiveness of the EuroPean Accredited Curriculum on Tobacco Treatment Training intervention in improving health care providers' knowledge, attitudes and self-efficacy related to tobacco dependence treatment.
METHODS
A pre-post pilot study was conducted. The two-day training intervention took place in Brussels in April 2016. Health care professionals from six European countries (Russia, Ukraine, Georgia, Armenia, Romania and Greece) were purposively invited to participate in the study. Evaluation was performed before the intervention, immediately after, and at approximately two months following the intervention. Changes in outcomes of interest were examined before and after exposure to the intervention program.
RESULTS
In all, 47 health care professionals participated in the training of which 40 completed the evaluation surveys. Significant increases in providers' self-efficacy and perceived behavioral control related to tobacco treatment delivery were documented immediately following the training and at the 2 months follow-up. Significant improvement in provider knowledge and attitudes were observed in some items assessed.
CONCLUSIONS
The results demonstrate that training is able to improve provider self-efficacy related to tobacco treatment delivery in this cross-national European sample of health care professionals.

1490,32411903,The effectiveness of family counselling on reducing exposure to secondhand smoke at home among pregnant women in Iran.,"INTRODUCTION
Pregnant women are often exposed to secondhand smoke that affects them and their child. Our aim was to determine the effectiveness of family counselling using the BASNEF model on reducing exposure to secondhand smoke at home among pregnant women.
METHODS
A quasi-experimental study was conducted on 103 pregnant women exposed to secondhand smoke. They were selected using a multi-stage cluster sampling method and allocated into intervention (50 people) and control (53 people) groups. Four family counseling sessions using the BASNEF model were held for the intervention group while the control group received routine care. The outcomes were measured before and at one month after the last session of counselling.
RESULTS
In the timeframe before the intervention, the number of days in which there was reported exposure to secondhand smoke was 5.08 ± 1.1 in the intervention group, significantly decreasing to 3.5 ± 1.6 after the intervention (p<0.001). No significant change was observed in the control group (p=0.1). Also, the mean scores of all constructs of the BASNEF model increased significantly after the intervention compared to those of the control group (p<0.05).
CONCLUSIONS
Family counseling had a positive effect on decreasing the exposure to secondhand smoke at home among a sample of pregnant women. The BASNEF model is useful for implementing educational care programs in these settings.",2019,Four family counseling sessions using the BASNEF model were held for the intervention group while the control group received routine care.,"['Pregnant women', 'pregnant women in Iran', '103 pregnant women exposed to secondhand smoke', 'pregnant women']","['family counselling', 'BASNEF model', 'routine care']",['mean scores of all constructs of the BASNEF model'],"[{'cui': 'C0033011', 'cui_str': 'Pregnant woman'}, {'cui': 'C0022065', 'cui_str': 'Iran'}, {'cui': 'C4517526', 'cui_str': '103'}, {'cui': 'C0332157', 'cui_str': 'Exposure to'}, {'cui': 'C0037370', 'cui_str': 'Passive smoking'}]","[{'cui': 'C0152055', 'cui_str': 'Family counseling'}, {'cui': 'C0026339', 'cui_str': 'Biological Models'}, {'cui': 'C0205547', 'cui_str': 'Routine'}]","[{'cui': 'C0444504', 'cui_str': 'Mean'}, {'cui': 'C0449820', 'cui_str': 'Score'}, {'cui': 'C0012931', 'cui_str': 'Recombinant DNA'}, {'cui': 'C0026339', 'cui_str': 'Biological Models'}]",103.0,0.0205619,Four family counseling sessions using the BASNEF model were held for the intervention group while the control group received routine care.,"[{'ForeName': 'Farzaneh', 'Initials': 'F', 'LastName': 'Soltani', 'Affiliation': 'Mother and Child Care Research Center, Hamadan University of Medical Sciences, Hamadan, Iran.'}, {'ForeName': 'Fariba', 'Initials': 'F', 'LastName': 'Barzegar', 'Affiliation': 'Student Research Center, Hamadan University of Medical Sciences, Hamadan, Iran.'}, {'ForeName': 'Gita', 'Initials': 'G', 'LastName': 'Sangestani', 'Affiliation': 'Mother and Child Care Research Center, Hamadan University of Medical Sciences, Hamadan, Iran.'}, {'ForeName': 'Ghodratolah', 'Initials': 'G', 'LastName': 'Roshanaii', 'Affiliation': 'Modeling of Non-CommunicableDiseases Research Center, Hamadan University of Medical Sciences, Hamadan, Iran.'}, {'ForeName': 'Azam', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Maleki', 'Affiliation': 'Social Determinants of Health Research Center, Zanjan University of Medical Sciences, Zanjan, Iran.'}]",Tobacco prevention & cessation,['10.18332/tpc/113105']

1492,32412417,A Mobile App Lifestyle Intervention to Improve Healthy Nutrition in Women Before and During Early Pregnancy: Single-Center Randomized Controlled Trial.,"BACKGROUND
Unhealthy nutrition contributes to the worldwide rising prevalence of noncommunicable diseases. As most adverse reproductive outcomes originate during the periconception period, effective interventions targeting this period are needed. Therefore, we developed the lifestyle intervention Smarter Pregnancy to empower women to adapt a healthy diet prior to conception and during early pregnancy and performed a randomized controlled trial.
OBJECTIVE
The objectives of this trial were to investigate compliance and effectiveness in women using the Smarter Pregnancy program.
METHODS
Women aged between 18 and 45 years who were contemplating pregnancy or <13 weeks pregnant and their male partners living in the urban area of Rotterdam, the Netherlands, were eligible for participation. After baseline screening, the intervention group received personal online coaching based on identified inadequate intakes of vegetables, fruits, and folic acid supplements. The sum of these risk factors was used as a dietary risk score (DRS), ranging from 0 (healthy) to 9 (unhealthy). The control group did not receive coaching. We applied an intention-to-treat principle and used a multivariable linear regression model to evaluate the change in DRS after 24 weeks. Compliance was defined as the percentage of women who completed the screening questionnaire at 24 weeks.
RESULTS
Of women recruited, 81.2% (177/218) completed the program (intervention: 91/218, 83.5%; control: 86/218, 78.9%; P=.95). After 24 weeks, the reduction in DRS of women in the intervention group was significantly larger than in the control group (β=.75, 95% CI 0.18-1.34). This reduction was mainly due to increased vegetable intake (β=.55, 95% CI 0.25-0.86).
CONCLUSIONS
The high compliance and the larger improvements in nutritional behaviors, especially vegetable intake, in women in the intervention group emphasizes the effectiveness of empowering women by using the lifestyle change intervention Smarter Pregnancy.

1493,26054049,"Effect of reducing portion size at a compulsory meal on later energy intake, gut hormones, and appetite in overweight adults.","OBJECTIVE
Larger portion sizes (PS) are associated with greater energy intake (EI), but little evidence exists on the appetitive effects of PS reduction. This study investigated the impact of reducing breakfast PS on subsequent EI, postprandial gastrointestinal hormone responses, and appetite ratings.
METHODS
In a randomized crossover design (n = 33 adults; mean BMI 29 kg/m(2) ), a compulsory breakfast was based on 25% of gender-specific estimated daily energy requirements; PS was reduced by 20% and 40%. EI was measured at an ad libitum lunch (240 min) and snack (360 min) and by weighed diet diaries until bed. Blood was sampled until lunch in 20 participants. Appetite ratings were measured using visual analogue scales.
RESULTS

1494,32412419,A Lower Leg Physical Activity Intervention for Individuals With Chronic Venous Leg Ulcers: Randomized Controlled Trial.,"BACKGROUND
Individuals with venous leg ulcers (VLUs) suffer disproportionately with multiple chronic conditions, are often physically deconditioned, and demonstrate high levels of physical inactivity.
OBJECTIVE
The primary objective of this randomized controlled trial was to establish the feasibility of a mobile health (mHealth) physical activity exercise app for individuals with VLUs to improve lower leg function.
METHODS
In a 6-week study, adults with VLUs were recruited from 2 wound centers in South Carolina, United States, and enrolled if they were aged 18 years or older with impaired functional mobility and an ankle-brachial index between 0.8 and 1.3. Participants were randomized 1:1 to receive evidence-based, phased, nonexertive physical conditioning activities for lower leg function (FOOTFIT) or FOOTFIT+ with an added patient-provider communication feature. The mHealth Conditioning Activities for Lower Leg Function app also provided automated educational and motivational messages and user reports. Foot movement on the VLU-affected leg was tracked by a Bluetooth-enabled triaxial accelerometer. The study was guided by the Reach, Effectiveness, Adoption, Implementation, and Maintenance framework to assess the feasibility of reach, adherence, acceptability, implementation, and maintenance.
RESULTS
A total of 24 patients were recruited, enrolled, and randomized in the study. Most patients reported difficulty following the protocol for exercising and using the accelerometer and mobile phone and did not use the provider contact feature. However, all patients were adherent to the 6-week exercise program more than 85% of the time for duration, whereas 33% (8/24) of patients adhered more than 85% for the frequency of performing the exercises. Across the three exercise levels, adherence did not differ between the two groups. Confidence limits around the difference in proportions ranged from -0.4 to 0.7. Providers in FOOTFIT+ were inconsistent in checking participant progress reports because of lack of time from competing work commitments. The technology became outdated quickly, making maintenance problematic. Participants said they would continue to exercise their foot and legs and liked being able to follow along with the demonstrations of each level of exercise provided through the app.
CONCLUSIONS
The findings of this study suggest that despite initial interest in using the app, several components of the program as originally designed had limited acceptability and feasibility. Future refinements should include the use of more modern technology including smaller wearable accelerometers, mobile phones or tablets with larger screens, an app designed with larger graphics, automated reporting for providers, and more engaging user features.

1495,32412097,Comparison of the efficacy of ECT plus agomelatine to ECT plus placebo in treatment-resistant depression.,"OBJECTIVE
Electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) is commonly used to treat patients with treatment-resistant depression. We aimed to investigate whether combining an antidepressant agent with ECT might enhance therapeutic efficacy and prevent early relapse.
METHODS
During the acute ECT phase, patients (N = 97) with treatment-resistant depression were randomized to receive ECT plus agomelatine 50 mg/d (n = 48) or ECT plus placebo (n =49). Symptom severity measures, including the 17-item Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAMD-17) and other scales, functional impairment, quality of life, neuropsychological tests, adverse events and attitudes toward ECT were assessed regularly. Remission was defined as a HAMD-17 score ≤ 7. If patients achieved post-ECT remission, they were prescribed agomelatine 50 mg/d and participated in a 12-week follow-up trial. HAMD-17 was rated at 4-week intervals. Relapse was defined as a HAMD-17 score ≥ 14, or rehospitalization for a psychiatric reason.
RESULTS
The two treatment groups were comparable at: 1) baseline variables, 2) score changes in all symptom measures, functional impairment, quality of life, and neuropsychological tests, 3) frequency of adverse events and attitudes toward ECT, and 4) post-ECT response/remission rates. There were no statistically significant differences following ECT in relapse rates and time to relapse between these two groups.
CONCLUSION
Adding agomelatine to ECT yielded comparable response/remission rates to ECT without agomelatine in the acute ECT phase. Starting agomelatine in combination with ECT did not seem to be more efficacious in preventing relapse than starting agomelatine after the acute ECT course. More research is needed to guide clinical recommendations.",2020,Starting agomelatine in combination with ECT did not seem to be more efficacious in preventing relapse than starting agomelatine after the acute ECT course.,"['patients with treatment-resistant depression', 'patients (N = 97) with treatment-resistant depression']","['ECT', 'ECT plus agomelatine to ECT plus placebo', 'ECT plus agomelatine', 'Electroconvulsive therapy (ECT', 'ECT plus placebo']","['17-item Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAMD-17) and other scales, functional impairment, quality of life, neuropsychological tests, adverse events and attitudes toward ECT', 'response/remission rates', 'Remission', 'Relapse', 'symptom measures, functional impairment, quality of life, and neuropsychological tests, 3) frequency of adverse events and attitudes toward ECT, and 4) post-ECT response/remission rates', 'relapse rates and time to relapse']","[{'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patient'}, {'cui': 'C2063866', 'cui_str': 'Therapy-Resistant Depression'}]","[{'cui': 'C0013806', 'cui_str': 'Electroconvulsive therapy'}, {'cui': 'C0332287', 'cui_str': 'With'}, {'cui': 'C0971637', 'cui_str': 'agomelatine'}, {'cui': 'C0032042', 'cui_str': 'Sham Treatment'}]","[{'cui': 'C0451203', 'cui_str': 'Hamilton rating scale for depression'}, {'cui': 'C0175659', 'cui_str': 'Scale'}, {'cui': 'C0205245', 'cui_str': 'Functional'}, {'cui': 'C0221099', 'cui_str': 'Impaired'}, {'cui': 'C0518214', 'cui_str': 'Quality of life satisfaction'}, {'cui': 'C0027902', 'cui_str': 'Neuropsychological testing'}, {'cui': 'C0877248', 'cui_str': 'Adverse event'}, {'cui': 'C0004271', 'cui_str': 'Attitude'}, {'cui': 'C0013806', 'cui_str': 'Electroconvulsive therapy'}, {'cui': 'C0544452', 'cui_str': 'Remission phase'}, {'cui': 'C0035020', 'cui_str': 'Relapse phase'}, {'cui': 'C0683368', 'cui_str': 'symptoms'}, {'cui': 'C0079809', 'cui_str': 'Measure'}, {'cui': 'C0237630', 'cui_str': 'Stimulus frequency'}, {'cui': 'C0687676', 'cui_str': 'After values'}, {'cui': 'C0040223', 'cui_str': 'Time'}]",97.0,0.124056,Starting agomelatine in combination with ECT did not seem to be more efficacious in preventing relapse than starting agomelatine after the acute ECT course.,"[{'ForeName': 'Ching-Hua', 'Initials': 'CH', 'LastName': 'Lin', 'Affiliation': 'Kaohsiung Municipal Kai-Syuan Psychiatric Hospital, Kaohsiung, Taiwan.'}, {'ForeName': 'Wei-Cheng', 'Initials': 'WC', 'LastName': 'Yang', 'Affiliation': 'Kaohsiung Municipal Kai-Syuan Psychiatric Hospital, Kaohsiung, Taiwan.'}, {'ForeName': 'Cheng-Chung', 'Initials': 'CC', 'LastName': 'Chen', 'Affiliation': 'Kaohsiung Municipal Kai-Syuan Psychiatric Hospital, Kaohsiung, Taiwan.'}, {'ForeName': 'Wun-Ruei', 'Initials': 'WR', 'LastName': 'Cai', 'Affiliation': 'Kaohsiung Municipal Kai-Syuan Psychiatric Hospital, Kaohsiung, Taiwan.'}]",Acta psychiatrica Scandinavica,['10.1111/acps.13183']
1496,32411906,"A pilot study assessing the addition of a Quit and Win program to pharmacist-led intensive smoking cessation therapy in a predominantly underserved, minority population.","INTRODUCTION
Quit and Win programs (Q&W) have been shown to improve smoking cessation rates by offering potential rewards to encourage smoking cessation. However, few studies have combined Q&W with intensive smoking cessation programs including behavioral counseling and pharmacotherapy, or studied Q&W in underserved, minority populations. This study was conducted to assess the impact on smoking cessation rates of adding a Q&W to intensive smoking cessation therapy in a largely underserved, minority population.
METHODS
This was a single-center, prospective, open-label controlled study. Current smokers received pharmacist-led behavioral counseling and smoking cessation pharmacotherapy. Intervention group patients who successfully quit (verified by self-report and exhaled carbon monoxide) at 1 month and 3 months post-quit date were entered into a draw for $1000. The control group received the same smoking cessation services, but without a monetary incentive.
RESULTS
Enrollment was 111 patients (N=85 in the intervention group), made up of predominantly underserved (82% had annual household income <$25000), minority (69.1%), and female (58%) patients. Groups were similar except the intervention group had lower educational and income levels, while the control group was more likely to smoke more than 1 pack per day. Quit rates at 3 months were 27% and 19% in the intervention and control groups, respectively (p=0.22). Female gender (OR=2.84; p=0.04) and Fagerström score (OR=0.71; p<0.01) were significant predictors of quitting.
CONCLUSIONS
The addition of Q&W to intensive smoking cessation services increased clinic referrals and numerically improved cessation rates, although this difference was not statistically significant, possibly due to high attrition of the study.",2019,"Quit rates at 3 months were 27% and 19% in the intervention and control groups, respectively (p=0.22).","['111 patients (N=85 in the intervention group), made up of predominantly underserved (82% had annual household income <$25000), minority (69.1%), and female (58%) patients', 'Intervention group patients who successfully quit (verified by self-report and exhaled carbon monoxide) at 1 month and 3 months post-quit date were entered into a draw for $1000']","['same smoking cessation services, but without a monetary incentive', 'Q&W to intensive smoking cessation therapy', 'pharmacist-led behavioral counseling and smoking cessation pharmacotherapy', 'Quit and Win programs (Q&W', 'Quit and Win program to pharmacist-led intensive smoking cessation therapy']","['cessation rates', 'lower educational and income levels', 'smoking cessation rates', 'Fagerström score', 'Quit rates']","[{'cui': 'C4517538', 'cui_str': '111'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patient'}, {'cui': 'C0184661', 'cui_str': 'Procedure'}, {'cui': 'C0439745', 'cui_str': 'Grouped'}, {'cui': 'C0332181', 'cui_str': 'Annual'}, {'cui': 'C0557163', 'cui_str': 'Household income'}, {'cui': 'C4517664', 'cui_str': '25000'}, {'cui': 'C0026192', 'cui_str': 'Minority Groups'}, {'cui': 'C0043210', 'cui_str': 'Woman'}, {'cui': 'C2700446', 'cui_str': 'Self-reported'}, {'cui': 'C0231800', 'cui_str': 'Expiration'}, {'cui': 'C0007018', 'cui_str': 'Carbon Monoxide'}, {'cui': 'C0332177', 'cui_str': 'Monthly'}, {'cui': 'C0687676', 'cui_str': 'After values'}, {'cui': 'C0011008', 'cui_str': 'Date'}, {'cui': 'C1522196', 'cui_str': 'Enteral route'}, {'cui': 'C0013113', 'cui_str': 'Drawings'}, {'cui': 'C1883310', 'cui_str': '1000'}]","[{'cui': 'C0085134', 'cui_str': 'Stopping Smoking'}, {'cui': 'C0557854', 'cui_str': 'Services'}, {'cui': 'C0021147', 'cui_str': 'Incentives'}, {'cui': 'C0018106', 'cui_str': 'Government Programs'}, {'cui': 'C1095963', 'cui_str': 'Smoking cessation therapy'}, {'cui': 'C0031323', 'cui_str': 'Pharmacist'}, {'cui': 'C0023175', 'cui_str': 'Lead'}, {'cui': 'C4546207', 'cui_str': 'Behavioral counseling'}, {'cui': 'C0013216', 'cui_str': 'Drug therapy'}]","[{'cui': 'C0441994', 'cui_str': 'Lower'}, {'cui': 'C0021162', 'cui_str': 'Income'}, {'cui': 'C0441889', 'cui_str': 'Levels'}, {'cui': 'C0085134', 'cui_str': 'Stopping Smoking'}, {'cui': 'C0449820', 'cui_str': 'Score'}]",,0.0209548,"Quit rates at 3 months were 27% and 19% in the intervention and control groups, respectively (p=0.22).","[{'ForeName': 'Kirk E', 'Initials': 'KE', 'LastName': 'Evoy', 'Affiliation': 'College of Pharmacy, The University of Texas at Austin, Austin, Texas, United States.'}, {'ForeName': 'Kentya H', 'Initials': 'KH', 'LastName': 'Ford', 'Affiliation': 'College of Pharmacy, The University of Texas at Austin, Austin, Texas, United States.'}, {'ForeName': 'Sabina', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Nduaguba', 'Affiliation': 'College of Pharmacy, The University of Texas at Austin, Austin, Texas, United States.'}, {'ForeName': 'Amber', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Taylor', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Pharmacy, University Health System, San Antonio, Texas, United States.'}, {'ForeName': 'Lindsay', 'Initials': 'L', 'LastName': 'Thomas', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Pharmacy, University Health System, San Antonio, Texas, United States.'}]",Tobacco prevention & cessation,['10.18332/tpc/113356']
1497,32412085,Mind the social feedback: effects of tDCS applied to the left DLPFC on psychophysiological responses during the anticipation and reception of social evaluations.,"The left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (lDLPFC) is implicated in anticipatory (i.e. during anticipation of emotional stimuli) and online (i.e. during confrontation with emotional stimuli) emotion regulatory processes. However, research that investigates the causal role of the lDLPFC in these processes is lacking. In this study, 74 participants received active or sham transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) over the lDLPFC. Participants were told strangers evaluated them. These (rigged) social evaluations were presented, and in 50% of the trials, participants could anticipate the valence (positive or negative) of the upcoming social feedback. Pupil dilation (a marker of cognitive resource allocation), and skin conductance responses (a marker of arousal) were measured. The results indicate that active (compared to sham) tDCS reduced arousal during the confrontation with anticipated feedback, but only marginally during the confrontation with unanticipated feedback. When participants were given the opportunity to anticipate the social feedback, tDCS reduced arousal, irrespective of whether one was anticipating or being confronted with the anticipated feedback. Moreover, tDCS reduced cognitive resource allocation during anticipation, which was associated with resource allocation increases during the subsequent confrontation. Altogether, results suggest that the lDLPFC is causally implicated in the interplay between anticipatory and online emotion regulatory processes.",2020,"Moreover, tDCS reduced cognitive resource allocation during anticipation, which was associated with resource allocation increases during the subsequent confrontation.",['74 participants received'],"['sham) tDCS', 'active or sham transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) over the lDLPFC', 'tDCS', 'lDLPFC']","['social feedback', 'cognitive resource allocation', 'Pupil dilation (a marker of cognitive resource allocation), and skin conductance responses (a marker of arousal', 'psychophysiological responses']",[],"[{'cui': 'C0073980', 'cui_str': 'salicylhydroxamic acid'}, {'cui': 'C3850024', 'cui_str': 'tDCS'}, {'cui': 'C0205177', 'cui_str': 'Active'}]","[{'cui': 'C0015744', 'cui_str': 'Feedback'}, {'cui': 'C0086914', 'cui_str': 'Allocation of Resources'}, {'cui': 'C0026961', 'cui_str': 'Dilated pupil'}, {'cui': 'C0005516', 'cui_str': 'Biological Markers'}, {'cui': 'C0444099', 'cui_str': 'Specimen from skin'}, {'cui': 'C0003808', 'cui_str': 'Arousal'}]",74.0,0.0328058,"Moreover, tDCS reduced cognitive resource allocation during anticipation, which was associated with resource allocation increases during the subsequent confrontation.","[{'ForeName': 'Jens', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Allaert', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Head and Skin, Ghent University, University Hospital Ghent (UZ Ghent), Ghent, Belgium.'}, {'ForeName': 'Rudi', 'Initials': 'R', 'LastName': 'De Raedt', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Experimental Clinical and Health Psychology, Ghent University, Ghent, Belgium.'}, {'ForeName': 'Alvaro', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Sanchez-Lopez', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Clinical Psychology, Universidad Complutense de Madrid, Spain.'}, {'ForeName': 'Chris', 'Initials': 'C', 'LastName': 'Baeken', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Head and Skin, Ghent University, University Hospital Ghent (UZ Ghent), Ghent, Belgium.'}, {'ForeName': 'Marie-Anne', 'Initials': 'MA', 'LastName': 'Vanderhasselt', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Head and Skin, Ghent University, University Hospital Ghent (UZ Ghent), Ghent, Belgium.'}]",Social cognitive and affective neuroscience,['10.1093/scan/nsaa066']
1498,32412145,Mind and body: Psychophysiological profiles of instructional and motivational self-talk.,"Self-talk is a psychological skill that benefits motor performance by controlling and organizing performers' thoughts. While the behavioral effects of self-talk are clear, research on the mechanisms underpinning the effects of different modes of self-talk is sparse. To address this issue, we propose and test a psychophysiological model of the effects of self-talk on motor performance. Forty golf novices practiced a golf putting task while using either instructional or motivational self-talk preceding each putt. We measured performance (radial error), technique (club kinematics and muscle activity), cardiac activity (heart-rate and event-related heart-rate change), as well as electroencephalographic alpha power and connectivity in a randomized (group: instructional self-talk, motivational self-talk) experimental design. Instructional self-talk promoted superior technique and was associated with greater parietal alpha power and weaker connectivity between frontal and parietal electrodes and all other scalp sites, possibly indicative of increased top-down control of action. These findings provide initial evidence for an information-processing mechanism underlying the benefits of instructional self-talk. They also cast doubt on the validity of left-frontotemporal connectivity as a measure of verbal-analytic processing during motor tasks.

1499,32411907,"Does adding a psychosocial cessation intervention to an existing life-skills and tobacco-prevention program influence the use of tobacco and supari among secondary school students?: Findings from a quasi-experimental trial in Mumbai, India.","INTRODUCTION
This study aimed to test whether school-going adolescents who self-report tobacco and/or supari use are more likely to quit if a school-based psychosocial cessation intervention is added to an existing life-skills and tobacco-prevention program.
METHODS
A quasi-experimental trial with pre-test and post-test 20 weeks after the intervention was conducted with students from low-income families in 12 schools in Mumbai; six schools were randomly assigned to the intervention and the remaining to the comparison condition. Participants were students from grades 7, 8 and 9 who self-reported tobacco and/or supari use. Intervention schools received six sessions of LifeFirst, a psychosocial group-based tobacco cessation intervention program, in addition to SuperArmy, a school-wide life-skills and tobacco-prevention program. Trained counselors facilitated the cessation intervention, which spanned five months. All students in comparison schools received only SuperArmy. The outcome measures were self-reported use of tobacco-only, supari-only, and tobacco plus supari in the past 30 days.
RESULTS
The number of all users decreased by 19.1% in the intervention and 18.7% in the comparison schools at post-test. Although this reduction was significant (p<0.001) within each group, the difference between intervention and comparison schools was not significant. Further segregation by type of product used showed that for tobacco-only users there was a non-significant increase of 1.7% in intervention schools, and a significant 26.2% increase (p<0.001) in the comparison group. Tobacco plus supari use declined in both groups; however, supari-only use fell by 14.8% in the intervention and 32.7% in the comparison schools (p<0.01).
CONCLUSIONS
The combination of a cessation intervention along with the life-skills and tobacco-prevention program appear to have halted tobacco-only use in the intervention group. Future research needs to determine whether students are substituting supari for tobacco and to understand the psychological mechanisms underlying the cessation intervention and the interaction between cessation and prevention-only interventions.",2019,"Tobacco plus supari use declined in both groups; however, supari-only use fell by 14.8% in the intervention and 32.7% in the comparison schools (p<0.01).

1500,32412119,Magnetic resonance imaging guided cryoballoon ablation for left atrial substrate modification in patients with atrial fibrillation.,"BACKGROUND
Cryoballoon ablation (CBA) for pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) is an established modality for the treatment of atrial fibrillation (AF). We report feasibility of left atrial (LA) substrate modification in addition to PVI both using the cryoballoon.
METHODS
Left atrial substrates and CBA-induced scar were assessed at baseline and 3 months post-ablation using late gadolinium enhancement magnetic resonance imaging (LGE-MRI). Common peri-procedural data including post-ablation LGE-MRI for evaluation of esophageal thermal injury, and CBA-associated complications were collected. Freedom from AF recurrence at 12 months was assessed using Holter and 30-day rhythm monitors.
RESULTS
In 26 patients (64 ±11 years; 69% male; 27% persistent AF; CHADSVASC score 2.3 ±1.5; LVEF 56 ±10%; OAC with Warfarin/DOAC n=11/15), referred for first time AF ablation, CBA of the pulmonary veins (PVs) and extra-pulmonary LA substrates was performed (median 12 [IQR 7-14] freezes over 1675 secs [IQR 1168-2160]). On LGE-MRI significant post-ablation cryoballoon-induced LA scar (median 19.4% [IQR 13.4-24.7] in comparison to baseline pre-ablation LA-LGE (median 10.6% [IQR 3.1-13.1], p=0.01) was found. Freedom from AF recurrence at 12 months was 74.5% with median time-to-recurrence of 242 days [IQR 172-298]. In 15/26 patients (58%) esophageal enhancement on the post-ablation MRI was present with full recovery after three months. No major periprocedural complications were observed.
CONCLUSION
Left atrial substrate modification in addition to PVI using LGE-MRI-guided cryoballoon ablation is feasible but still experimental.

1501,32412195,[Locoregional anesthesia in endoscopic surgery of intracerebral hypertensive hemangiomas].,"Introduction
Currently, minimally invasive methods of surgical treatment of hypertensive intracerebral hematomas (ICHs) are actively used. However, anesthetic management of these surgeries are unclear. Moreover, advisability of locoregional anesthesia (LRA) for endoscopic aspiration of hypertensive ICHs has not been studied.
Objective
To analyze application of regional anesthesia in minimally invasive surgery of hypertensive intracerebral hematomas.
Material and methods
Patients were divided into 2 groups. Group 1 included 45 patients who underwent surgery under total intravenous anesthesia with mechanical ventilation (TIVA + mechanical ventilation), group 2 (n=43) - surgery under LRA. The incidence of pneumonia and postoperative outcomes in accordance with the GOS grading system were analyzed depending on the method of anesthesia.
Results
Pneumonia was 3 times more common in the first group (33%) that required prolonged ventilation and tracheostomy. Thus, there were 9 tracheostomies (20%) in the first group. In the second group, one patient required mechanical ventilation on the second postoperative day due to severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease followed by deterioration of respiratory failure. Tracheostomy was also performed in this case. According to analysis of GOS outcomes, the LRA group was characterized by 4 times lower mortality and 1.5 times greater number of patients with good recovery and moderate disabilities compared with the first group.
Conclusions
LRA is a feasible and effective method for the anesthetic management of minimally invasive surgery in patients with hypertensive ICHs. This approach ensures decrease of mortality rate, increase of good neurological outcomes and reduce pulmonary infectious complications.",2020,"According to analysis of GOS outcomes, the LRA group was characterized by 4 times lower mortality and 1.5 times greater number of patients with good recovery and moderate disabilities compared with the first group.

1502,32412181,Live lectures and videos do not differ in relation to learning outcomes of dental ergonomics.,"OBJECTIVES
This study aimed to compare the knowledge attained by third-year dental students in physical ergonomics altering live lectures and videos in teaching. The second aim was to investigate implementation of the theoretical knowledge on ergonomics into practice.
MATERIAL AND METHODS
Forty-five students divided into two groups attended a live lecture (45 min) or viewed videos (45 min). After the first teaching session, the groups changed parts. All students answered a questionnaire with 13 true or false-questions on ergonomics at baseline and immediately after both teaching sessions. Friedman's test and Wilcoxon signed rank test were used to compare questionnaire scores of the student groups. Additionally, we photographed 17 randomly selected students 3 months after baseline during a simulation workshop on endodontics. We analyzed the photographs for ergonomic postures using a specific 12-point checklist.
RESULTS
At baseline, no difference in the knowledge between the two groups was discovered, when both scored 72%. After the first teaching session, significant improvement in both groups (p < .05) was found; and there was no statistically significant difference in the scores between the groups (88% in the lecture-first and 82% in the video-first group). After the second teaching session, the scores were similar in both groups. Overall all improvement in both groups was significant (p < .001). The photograph analysis showed half of the postures being in accord with the ergonomic guidelines.
CONCLUSIONS
Both live lectures and videos showed similar outcomes in teaching ergonomics. Implementation of the knowledge on ergonomics is insufficient.

1503,32412273,Eliminating Leakage Errors in Hyperfine Qubits.,"Population leakage outside the qubit subspace presents a particularly harmful source of error that cannot be handled by standard error correction methods. Using a trapped ^{171}Yb^{+} ion, we demonstrate an optical pumping scheme to suppress leakage errors in atomic hyperfine qubits. The selection rules and narrow linewidth of a quadrupole transition are used to selectively pump population out of leakage states and back into the qubit subspace. Each pumping cycle reduces the leakage population by a factor of ∼3, allowing for an exponential suppression in the number of cycles. We use interleaved randomized benchmarking on the qubit subspace to show that this pumping procedure has negligible side effects on the qubit subspace, bounding the induced qubit memory error by ≤2.0(8)×10^{-5} per cycle, and qubit population decay to ≤1.4(3)×10^{-7} per cycle.

Olaparib, a poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitor, has previously shown efficacy in a phase 2 study when given in capsule formulation to all-comer patients with platinum-sensitive, relapsed high-grade serous ovarian cancer. We aimed to confirm these findings in patients with a BRCA1 or BRCA2 (BRCA1/2) mutation using a tablet formulation of olaparib.
METHODS
This international, multicentre, double-blind, randomised, placebo-controlled, phase 3 trial evaluated olaparib tablet maintenance treatment in platinum-sensitive, relapsed ovarian cancer patients with a BRCA1/2 mutation who had received at least two lines of previous chemotherapy. Eligible patients were aged 18 years or older with an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status at baseline of 0-1 and histologically confirmed, relapsed, high-grade serous ovarian cancer or high-grade endometrioid cancer, including primary peritoneal or fallopian tube cancer. Patients were randomly assigned 2:1 to olaparib (300 mg in two 150 mg tablets, twice daily) or matching placebo tablets using an interactive voice and web response system. Randomisation was stratified by response to previous platinum chemotherapy (complete vs partial) and length of platinum-free interval (6-12 months vs ≥12 months) and treatment assignment was masked for patients, those giving the interventions, data collectors, and data analysers. The primary endpoint was investigator-assessed progression-free survival and we report the primary analysis from this ongoing study. The efficacy analyses were done on the intention-to-treat population; safety analyses included patients who received at least one dose of study treatment. This trial is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, number NCT01874353, and is ongoing and no longer recruiting patients.
FINDINGS
Between Sept 3, 2013, and Nov 21, 2014, we enrolled 295 eligible patients who were randomly assigned to receive olaparib (n=196) or placebo (n=99). One patient in the olaparib group was randomised in error and did not receive study treatment. Investigator-assessed median progression-free survival was significantly longer with olaparib (19·1 months [95% CI 16·3-25·7]) than with placebo (5·5 months [5·2-5·8]; hazard ratio [HR] 0·30 [95% CI 0·22-0·41], p<0·0001). The most common adverse events of grade 3 or worse severity were anaemia (38 [19%] of 195 patients in the olaparib group vs two [2%] of 99 patients in the placebo group), fatigue or asthenia (eight [4%] vs two [2%]), and neutropenia (ten [5%] vs four [4%]). Serious adverse events were experienced by 35 (18%) patients in the olaparib group and eight (8%) patients in the placebo group. The most common in the olaparib group were anaemia (seven [4%] patients), abdominal pain (three [2%] patients), and intestinal obstruction (three [2%] patients). The most common in the placebo group were constipation (two [2%] patients) and intestinal obstruction (two [2%] patients). One (1%) patient in the olaparib group had a treatment-related adverse event (acute myeloid leukaemia) with an outcome of death.
INTERPRETATION
Olaparib tablet maintenance treatment provided a significant progression-free survival improvement with no detrimental effect on quality of life in patients with platinum-sensitive, relapsed ovarian cancer and a BRCA1/2 mutation. Apart from anaemia, toxicities with olaparib were low grade and manageable.

1505,28781171,"First-line selective internal radiotherapy plus chemotherapy versus chemotherapy alone in patients with liver metastases from colorectal cancer (FOXFIRE, SIRFLOX, and FOXFIRE-Global): a combined analysis of three multicentre, randomised, phase 3 trials.","BACKGROUND
Data suggest selective internal radiotherapy (SIRT) in third-line or subsequent therapy for metastatic colorectal cancer has clinical benefit in patients with colorectal liver metastases with liver-dominant disease after chemotherapy. The FOXFIRE, SIRFLOX, and FOXFIRE-Global randomised studies evaluated the efficacy of combining first-line chemotherapy with SIRT using yttrium-90 resin microspheres in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer with liver metastases. The studies were designed for combined analysis of overall survival.
METHODS
FOXFIRE, SIRFLOX, and FOXFIRE-Global were randomised, phase 3 trials done in hospitals and specialist liver centres in 14 countries worldwide (Australia, Belgium, France, Germany, Israel, Italy, New Zealand, Portugal, South Korea, Singapore, Spain, Taiwan, the UK, and the USA). Chemotherapy-naive patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (WHO performance status 0 or 1) with liver metastases not suitable for curative resection or ablation were randomly assigned (1:1) to either oxaliplatin-based chemotherapy (FOLFOX: leucovorin, fluorouracil, and oxaliplatin) or FOLFOX plus single treatment SIRT concurrent with cycle 1 or 2 of chemotherapy. In FOXFIRE, FOLFOX chemotherapy was OxMdG (oxaliplatin modified de Gramont chemotherapy; 85 mg/m 2 oxaliplatin infusion over 2 h, L-leucovorin 175 mg or D,L-leucovorin 350 mg infusion over 2 h, and 400 mg/m 2 bolus fluorouracil followed by a 2400 mg/m 2 continuous fluorouracil infusion over 46 h). In SIRFLOX and FOXFIRE-Global, FOLFOX chemotherapy was modified FOLFOX6 (85 mg/m 2 oxaliplatin infusion over 2 h, 200 mg leucovorin, and 400 mg/m 2 bolus fluorouracil followed by a 2400 mg/m 2 continuous fluorouracil infusion over 46 h). Randomisation was done by central minimisation with four factors: presence of extrahepatic metastases, tumour involvement of the liver, planned use of a biological agent, and investigational centre. Participants and investigators were not masked to treatment. The primary endpoint was overall survival, analysed in the intention-to-treat population, using a two-stage meta-analysis of pooled individual patient data. All three trials have completed 2 years of follow-up. FOXFIRE is registered with the ISRCTN registry, number ISRCTN83867919. SIRFLOX and FOXFIRE-Global are registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, numbers NCT00724503 (SIRFLOX) and NCT01721954 (FOXFIRE-Global).
FINDINGS
Between Oct 11, 2006, and Dec 23, 2014, 549 patients were randomly assigned to FOLFOX alone and 554 patients were assigned FOLFOX plus SIRT. Median follow-up was 43·3 months (IQR 31·6-58·4). There were 411 (75%) deaths in 549 patients in the FOLFOX alone group and 433 (78%) deaths in 554 patients in the FOLFOX plus SIRT group. There was no difference in overall survival (hazard ratio [HR] 1·04, 95% CI 0·90-1·19; p=0·61). The median survival time in the FOLFOX plus SIRT group was 22·6 months (95% CI 21·0-24·5) compared with 23·3 months (21·8-24·7) in the FOLFOX alone group. In the safety population containing patients who received at least one dose of study treatment, as treated, the most common grade 3-4 adverse event was neutropenia (137 [24%] of 571 patients receiving FOLFOX alone vs 186 (37%) of 507 patients receiving FOLFOX plus SIRT). Serious adverse events of any grade occurred in 244 (43%) of 571 patients receiving FOLFOX alone and 274 (54%) of 507 patients receiving FOLFOX plus SIRT. 10 patients in the FOLFOX plus SIRT group and 11 patients in the FOLFOX alone group died due to an adverse event; eight treatment-related deaths occurred in the FOLFOX plus SIRT group and three treatment-related deaths occurred in the FOLFOX alone group.
INTERPRETATION
Addition of SIRT to first-line FOLFOX chemotherapy for patients with liver-only and liver-dominant metastatic colorectal cancer did not improve overall survival compared with that for FOLFOX alone. Therefore, early use of SIRT in combination with chemotherapy in unselected patients with metastatic colorectal cancer cannot be recommended. To further define the role of SIRT in metastatic colorectal cancer, careful patient selection and studies investigating the role of SIRT as consolidation therapy after chemotherapy are needed.

1506,28784312,"Neoadjuvant cisplatin and fluorouracil versus epirubicin, cisplatin, and capecitabine followed by resection in patients with oesophageal adenocarcinoma (UK MRC OE05): an open-label, randomised phase 3 trial.","BACKGROUND
Neoadjuvant chemotherapy before surgery improves survival compared with surgery alone for patients with oesophageal cancer. The OE05 trial assessed whether increasing the duration and intensity of neoadjuvant chemotherapy further improved survival compared with the current standard regimen.
METHODS
OE05 was an open-label, phase 3, randomised clinical trial. Patients with surgically resectable oesophageal adenocarcinoma classified as stage cT1N1, cT2N1, cT3N0/N1, or cT4N0/N1 were recruited from 72 UK hospitals. Eligibility criteria included WHO performance status 0 or 1, adequate respiratory, cardiac, and liver function, white blood cell count at least 3 × 10 9 cells per L, platelet count at least 100 × 10 9 platelets per L, and a glomerular filtration rate at least 60 mL/min. Participants were randomly allocated (1:1) using a computerised minimisation program with a random element and stratified by centre and tumour stage, to receive two cycles of cisplatin and fluorouracil (CF; two 3-weekly cycles of cisplatin [80 mg/m 2 intravenously on day 1] and fluorouracil [1 g/m 2 per day intravenously on days 1-4]) or four cycles of epirubicin, cisplatin, and capecitabine (ECX; four 3-weekly cycles of epirubicin [50 mg/m 2 ] and cisplatin [60 mg/m 2 ] intravenously on day 1, and capecitabine [1250 mg/m 2 ] daily throughout the four cycles) before surgery, stratified according to centre and clinical disease stage. Neither patients nor study staff were masked to treatment allocation. Two-phase oesophagectomy with two-field (abdomen and thorax) lymphadenectomy was done within 4-6 weeks of completion of chemotherapy. The primary outcome measure was overall survival, and primary and safety analyses were done in the intention-to-treat population. This trial is registered with the ISRCTN registry (number 01852072) and ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT00041262), and is completed.
FINDINGS
Between Jan 13, 2005, and Oct 31, 2011, 897 patients were recruited and 451 were assigned to the CF group and 446 to the ECX group. By Nov 14, 2016, 327 (73%) of 451 patients in the CF group and 302 (68%) of 446 in the ECX group had died. Median survival was 23·4 months (95% CI 20·6-26·3) with CF and 26·1 months (22·5-29·7) with ECX (hazard ratio 0·90 (95% CI 0·77-1·05, p=0·19). No unexpected chemotherapy toxicity was seen, and neutropenia was the most commonly reported event (grade 3 or 4 neutropenia: 74 [17%] of 446 patients in the CF group vs 101 [23%] of 441 people in the ECX group). The proportions of patients with postoperative complications (224 [56%] of 398 people for whom data were available in the CF group and 233 [62%] of 374 in the ECX group; p=0·089) were similar between the two groups. One patient in the ECX group died of suspected treatment-related neutropenic sepsis.
INTERPRETATION
Four cycles of neoadjuvant ECX compared with two cycles of CF did not increase survival, and cannot be considered standard of care. Our study involved a large number of centres and detailed protocol with comprehensive prospective assessment of health-related quality of life in a patient population confined to people with adenocarcinomas of the oesophagus and gastro-oesophageal junction (Siewert types 1 and 2).

Objectives: To evaluate the efficacy of microneedling combined with 5% minoxidil in Chinese male AGA patients and to explore the underlying mechanisms. Methods: Seventy-one male volunteers with AGA completed the entire trial and follow-up. The first group (n = 23) received only 5% minoxidil twice daily for 24 weeks; the second group (n = 23) received only microneedle therapy every 3 weeks for 8 treatments; and the third group (n = 25) received the combination treatment for a total of 24 weeks. Changes in hair density and diameter were evaluated before and after treatment every 3 weeks, and patients were followed up at 6 months after the final treatment. In the combination group, a PCR array was used to detect the expression of molecules in the Wnt/β-catenin pathway within the hair loss sites on top of the head before and after treatment and within the scalp tissues from non-hair loss sites on top of the head. The tissues were obtained by punches in the most severe area of hair loss on top of the head and in the adjacent normal hair area without hair loss. Real-time quantitative PCR and western blotting were used to further examine changes in the differentially expressed molecules identified by PCR array (FZD3) and in molecules in the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway closely related to hair growth (β-catenin and LEF-1). Results: Compared to single minoxidil or single microneedle treatment, the combination therapy showed superior therapeutic effects clinically, with further upregulation of FZD3, β-catenin, and LEF-1 expression levels at both mRNA and protein levels in the treated areas.

1508,28729154,"Tremelimumab as second-line or third-line treatment in relapsed malignant mesothelioma (DETERMINE): a multicentre, international, randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled phase 2b trial.","BACKGROUND
New therapeutic strategies for malignant mesothelioma are urgently needed. In the DETERMINE study, we investigated the effects of the cytotoxic-T-lymphocyte-associated antigen 4 (CTLA-4) monoclonal antibody tremelimumab in patients with previously treated advanced malignant mesothelioma.
METHODS
DETERMINE was a double-blind, placebo-controlled, phase 2b trial done at 105 study centres across 19 countries in patients with unresectable pleural or peritoneal malignant mesothelioma who had progressed after one or two previous systemic treatments for advanced disease. Eligible patients were aged 18 years or older with Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status of 0 or 1 and measurable disease as defined in the modified Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (RECIST) version 1.0 for pleural mesothelioma or RECIST version 1.1 for peritoneal mesothelioma. Patients were randomly assigned (2:1) in blocks of three, stratified by European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer status (low risk vs high risk), line of therapy (second line vs third line), and anatomic site (pleural vs peritoneal), by use of an interactive voice or web system, to receive intravenous tremelimumab (10 mg/kg) or placebo every 4 weeks for 7 doses and every 12 weeks thereafter until a treatment discontinuation criterion was met. The primary endpoint was overall survival in the intention-to-treat population. Safety was assessed in all patients who received at least one dose of study drug. The trial is ongoing but no longer recruiting participants, and is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, number NCT01843374.
FINDINGS
Between May 17, 2013, and Dec 4, 2014, 571 patients were randomly assigned to receive tremelimumab (n=382) or placebo (n=189), of whom 569 patients received treatment (two patients in the tremelimumab group were excluded from the safety population because they did not receive treatment). At the data cutoff date (Jan 24, 2016), 307 (80%) of 382 patients had died in the tremelimumab group and 154 (81%) of 189 patients had died in the placebo group. Median overall survival in the intention-to-treat population did not differ between the treatment groups: 7·7 months (95% CI 6·8-8·9) in the tremelimumab group and 7·3 months (5·9-8·7) in the placebo group (hazard ratio 0·92 [95% CI 0·76-1·12], p=0·41). Treatment-emergent adverse events of grade 3 or worse occurred in 246 (65%) of 380 patients in the tremelimumab group and 91 (48%) of 189 patients in the placebo group; the most common were dyspnoea (34 [9%] patients in the tremelimumab group vs 27 [14%] patients in the placebo group), diarrhoea (58 [15%] vs one [<1%]), and colitis (26 [7%] vs none). The most common serious adverse events were diarrhoea (69 [18%] patients in the tremelimumab group vs one [<1%] patient in the placebo group), dyspnoea (29 [8%] vs 24 [13%]), and colitis (24 [6%] vs none). Treatment-emergent events leading to death occurred in 36 (9%) of 380 patients in the tremelimumab group and 12 (6%) of 189 in the placebo group; those leading to the death of more than one patient were mesothelioma (three [1%] patients in the tremelimumab group vs two [1%] in the placebo group), dyspnoea (three [1%] vs two [1%]); respiratory failure (one [<1%] vs three [2%]), myocardial infarction (three [1%] vs none), lung infection (three [1%] patients vs none), cardiac failure (one [<1%] vs one [<1%]), and colitis (two [<1%] vs none). Treatment-related adverse events leading to death occurred in five (1%) patients in the tremelimumab group and none in the placebo group. The causes of death were lung infection in one patient, intestinal perforation and small intestinal obstruction in one patient; colitis in two patients, and neuritis and skin ulcer in one patient.
INTERPRETATION
Tremelimumab did not significantly prolong overall survival compared with placebo in patients with previously treated malignant mesothelioma. The safety profile of tremelimumab was consistent with the known safety profile of CTLA-4 inhibitors. Investigations into whether immunotherapy combination regimens can provide greater efficacy than monotherapies in malignant mesothelioma are ongoing.

1510,32412597,"Snacking on whole almonds for 6 weeks improves endothelial function and lowers LDL cholesterol but does not affect liver fat and other cardiometabolic risk factors in healthy adults: the ATTIS study, a randomized controlled trial.","BACKGROUND
There is convincing evidence that daily whole almond consumption lowers blood LDL cholesterol concentrations, but effects on other cardiometabolic risk factors such as endothelial function and liver fat are still to be determined.
OBJECTIVES
We aimed to investigate whether isoenergetic substitution of whole almonds for control snacks with the macronutrient profile of average snack intakes, had any impact on markers of cardiometabolic health in adults aged 30-70 y at above-average risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD).
METHODS
The study was a 6-wk randomized controlled, parallel-arm trial. Following a 2-wk run-in period consuming control snacks (mini-muffins), participants consumed either whole roasted almonds (n = 51) or control snacks (n = 56), providing 20% of daily estimated energy requirements. Endothelial function (flow-mediated dilation), liver fat (MRI/magnetic resonance spectroscopy), and secondary outcomes as markers of cardiometabolic disease risk were assessed at baseline and end point.
RESULTS
Almonds, compared with control, increased endothelium-dependent vasodilation (mean difference 4.1%-units of measurement; 95% CI: 2.2, 5.9), but there were no differences in liver fat between groups. Plasma LDL cholesterol concentrations decreased in the almond group relative to control (mean difference -0.25 mmol/L; 95% CI: -0.45, -0.04), but there were no group differences in triglycerides, HDL cholesterol, glucose, insulin, insulin resistance, leptin, adiponectin, resistin, liver function enzymes, fetuin-A, body composition, pancreatic fat, intramyocellular lipids, fecal SCFAs, blood pressure, or 24-h heart rate variability. However, the long-phase heart rate variability parameter, very-low-frequency power, was increased during nighttime following the almond treatment compared with control (mean difference 337 ms2; 95% CI: 12, 661), indicating greater parasympathetic regulation.
CONCLUSIONS
Whole almonds consumed as snacks markedly improve endothelial function, in addition to lowering LDL cholesterol, in adults with above-average risk of CVD.This trial was registered at clinicaltrials.gov as NCT02907684.",2020,"Plasma LDL cholesterol concentrations decreased in the almond group relative to control (mean difference -0.25 mmol/L;

1511,32412629,The Intervention Nurses Start Infants Growing on Healthy Trajectories (INSIGHT) Responsive Parenting Intervention for Firstborns Affects Dietary Intake of Secondborn Infants.,"BACKGROUND
Although previous work has shown that children with older siblings tend to have poorer diet quality, no study has directly compared diets of infant siblings.
OBJECTIVE
The goals of this analysis were to examine birth-order differences in dietary intake between firstborn (FB) and secondborn (SB) siblings, and to determine whether a responsive parenting (RP) intervention modified birth-order effects on diet.
METHODS
The Intervention Nurses Start Infants Growing on Healthy Trajectories (INSIGHT) study randomly assigned first-time mothers to an RP intervention, which included guidance on feeding, sleep, soothing, and interactive play, or control. INSIGHT mothers who delivered a second child enrolled in an observation-only study of their SB infant (SIBSIGHT). Mothers completed FFQs for both children at ages 6 (n = 97 sibling pairs) and 12 (n = 100) mo. FB compared with SB intake of food groups of interest were compared, and the moderating effect of the RP intervention on birth-order differences was tested using generalized linear mixed models.
RESULTS
Though FBs and SBs had similar diets, more FBs than SBs consumed 100% fruit juice at both 6 (13.8 compared with 3.2%, P = 0.006) and 12 mo (46.0 compared with 32.0%, P = 0.01). SBs consumed fruit more frequently (FB 2.8 compared with SB 3.2 times/d, P = 0.01), and were more likely to consume fried potatoes (FB 38.4 compared with SB 57.6%, P = 0.0009) and processed meats (FB 43.0 compared with SB 58.0%, P = 0.02) than FBs at 12 mo. There were no differences by birth order in intake of sweets, snacks, or sugar-sweetened beverages at 12 mo. At 12 mo, RP-group SBs ate vegetables more times per day (3.2) than control SBs (2.2, P = 0.01). RP-SBs also consumed a greater variety of vegetables (10.2) than control-SBs (7.9, P = 0.01).
CONCLUSIONS
Birth order is not consistently associated with healthy or unhealthy infant dietary intake. However, an RP intervention delivered to first-time mothers may benefit subsequent infants' vegetable intake. This trial was registered at clinicaltrials.gov as NCT01167270.",2020,"SBs consumed fruit more frequently (FB 2.8 compared with SB 3.2 times/d, P = 0.01), and were more likely to consume fried potatoes (FB 38.4 compared with SB 57.6%, P = 0.0009) and processed meats (FB 43.0 compared with SB 58.0%, P = 0.02) than FBs at 12 mo.","['Secondborn Infants', 'INSIGHT mothers who delivered a second child enrolled in an observation-only study of their SB infant (SIBSIGHT', 'children with older siblings', 'The Intervention Nurses Start Infants']","['RP intervention', 'RP intervention, which included guidance on feeding, sleep, soothing, and interactive play, or control', 'Intervention Nurses Start Infants Growing on Healthy Trajectories (INSIGHT']","['birth order in intake of sweets, snacks, or sugar-sweetened beverages']","[{'cui': 'C0021270', 'cui_str': 'Infant'}, {'cui': 'C0026591', 'cui_str': 'Mother'}, {'cui': 'C0205436', 'cui_str': 'Second'}, {'cui': 'C0008059', 'cui_str': 'Child'}, {'cui': 'C0302523', 'cui_str': 'Observation'}, {'cui': 'C0008972', 'cui_str': 'Clinical Study'}, {'cui': 'C0337511', 'cui_str': 'Older sibling'}, {'cui': 'C0184661', 'cui_str': 'Procedure'}, {'cui': 'C0028661', 'cui_str': 'Nursing personnel'}, {'cui': 'C0439659', 'cui_str': 'Origins'}]","[{'cui': 'C0205342', 'cui_str': 'Responsive'}, {'cui': 'C0085092', 'cui_str': 'Parenting behavior'}, {'cui': 'C0184661', 'cui_str': 'Procedure'}, {'cui': 'C0332257', 'cui_str': 'Including'}, {'cui': 'C0042934', 'cui_str': 'Vocational counseling'}, {'cui': 'C0037313', 'cui_str': 'Sleep'}, {'cui': 'C0032214', 'cui_str': 'Play'}, {'cui': 'C0009932', 'cui_str': 'Control Groups'}, {'cui': 'C0028661', 'cui_str': 'Nursing personnel'}, {'cui': 'C0439659', 'cui_str': 'Origins'}, {'cui': 'C0021270', 'cui_str': 'Infant'}]","[{'cui': 'C0005607', 'cui_str': 'Place in family order'}, {'cui': 'C3251814', 'cui_str': 'Measurement of fluid intake'}, {'cui': 'C0085077', 'cui_str': 'Acute febrile neutrophilic dermatosis'}, {'cui': 'C0453863', 'cui_str': 'Snack food'}, {'cui': 'C5197754', 'cui_str': 'Sugar-Added Beverages'}]",,0.0545827,"SBs consumed fruit more frequently (FB 2.8 compared with SB 3.2 times/d, P = 0.01), and were more likely to consume fried potatoes (FB 38.4 compared with SB 57.6%, P = 0.0009) and processed meats (FB 43.0 compared with SB 58.0%, P = 0.02) than FBs at 12 mo.","[{'ForeName': 'Emily E', 'Initials': 'EE', 'LastName': 'Hohman', 'Affiliation': 'Center for Childhood Obesity Research, Pennsylvania State University, University Park, PA, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Jennifer S', 'Initials': 'JS', 'LastName': 'Savage', 'Affiliation': 'Center for Childhood Obesity Research, Pennsylvania State University, University Park, PA, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Leann L', 'Initials': 'LL', 'LastName': 'Birch', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Foods and Nutrition, University of Georgia, Athens, GA, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Ian M', 'Initials': 'IM', 'LastName': 'Paul', 'Affiliation': 'Departments of Pediatrics and Public Health Sciences, Penn State College of Medicine, Hershey, PA, USA.'}]",The Journal of nutrition,['10.1093/jn/nxaa135']
1512,31729280,"An Experimental Investigation of Victim Blaming in Sexual Assault: The Roles of Victim Sexual Orientation, Coercion Type, and Stereotypes About Bisexual Women.","Bisexual women are more likely to be sexually assaulted and to receive negative reactions to disclosures of sexual assault than heterosexual and lesbian women. However, few studies have examined the extent to which victim sexual orientation and related factors influence perceptions of sexual assault victims and perpetrators. To fill this gap, the current study used an experimental manipulation to examine the influence of victim sexual orientation and coercion type on perceptions of sexual assault victims and perpetrators. Participants ( N = 826) were randomly assigned to read one of nine vignettes in which the sexual orientation of the female victim (bisexual, lesbian, heterosexual) and the type of coercion (verbal, physical, alcohol incapacitation) were varied. Then, participants were asked a series of questions about the victim and the perpetrator. Results indicated that bisexual and heterosexual female victims were both perceived as having wanted to have sex with the perpetrator more and as having ""led the perpetrator on"" more than lesbian victims. In contrast, victim sexual orientation was not associated with explicit ratings of victim or perpetrator responsibility or victim suffering. Bisexual female victims were also perceived as more promiscuous than both lesbian and heterosexual female victims. In turn, perceiving the victim as more promiscuous was associated with perceiving the victim as more responsible, having wanted to have sex with the perpetrator more, having ""led the perpetrator on"" more, and suffering less, and with perceiving the perpetrator as less responsible. In sum, our findings suggest that efforts to reduce sexual violence toward bisexual women should attend to negative attitudes toward bisexual women, especially the perception of bisexual women as promiscuous.",2019,Bisexual women are more likely to be sexually assaulted and to receive negative reactions to disclosures of sexual assault than heterosexual and lesbian women.,"['bisexual and heterosexual female victims', 'Sexual Assault', 'Bisexual women', 'Bisexual female victims', 'Participants ( N = 826']","['nine vignettes in which the sexual orientation of the female victim (bisexual, lesbian, heterosexual) and the type of coercion (verbal, physical, alcohol incapacitation']",['sexual violence'],"[{'cui': 'C2129310', 'cui_str': 'Bisexual (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C1527360', 'cui_str': 'Heterosexuals'}, {'cui': 'C0086287', 'cui_str': 'Females'}, {'cui': 'C0237236', 'cui_str': 'Sexual assault (event)'}, {'cui': 'C0043210', 'cui_str': 'Girls'}]","[{'cui': 'C0205949', 'cui_str': 'Sexual Orientation'}, {'cui': 'C0086287', 'cui_str': 'Females'}, {'cui': 'C2129310', 'cui_str': 'Bisexual (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C1533642', 'cui_str': 'Women Who Have Sex With Women'}, {'cui': 'C1527360', 'cui_str': 'Heterosexuals'}, {'cui': 'C0441704', 'cui_str': 'Typings (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0009236', 'cui_str': 'Coercion'}, {'cui': 'C0439824', 'cui_str': 'Verbal (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0205485', 'cui_str': 'Physical (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0001975', 'cui_str': 'Alcohols'}]","[{'cui': 'C3489576', 'cui_str': 'Sexual Violence'}]",826.0,0.0157665,Bisexual women are more likely to be sexually assaulted and to receive negative reactions to disclosures of sexual assault than heterosexual and lesbian women.,"[{'ForeName': 'Christina', 'Initials': 'C', 'LastName': 'Dyar', 'Affiliation': 'Institute for Sexual and Gender Minority Health and Wellbeing, Northwestern University, Chicago, IL, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Brian A', 'Initials': 'BA', 'LastName': 'Feinstein', 'Affiliation': 'Institute for Sexual and Gender Minority Health and Wellbeing, Northwestern University, Chicago, IL, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'RaeAnn E', 'Initials': 'RE', 'LastName': 'Anderson', 'Affiliation': 'University of North Dakota, Grand Forks, USA.'}]",Journal of interpersonal violence,['10.1177/0886260519888209']
1513,31567041,Effect of cash incentives on tetanus toxoid vaccination among rural Nigerian women: a randomized controlled trial.,"Tetanus toxoid vaccination is freely available for most women in developing countries, yet maternal and neonatal tetanus are still prevalent in 13 countries, 9 of which are in sub-Saharan Africa. We evaluated whether providing cash incentives increases the uptake of tetanus toxoid vaccination among women of childbearing age in rural northern Nigeria. We randomized amounts of cash incentives to women in three groups: 5 Nigerian naira (C5), 300 naira (C300), and 800 naira (C800) (150 naira = 1 U.S. dollar).

1514,32412598,"Highly bioavailable curcumin derivative ameliorates Crohn's disease symptoms: A randomized, double-blind, multicenter study.","BACKGROUND & AIMS
The new curcumin derivative Theracurmin® has a 27-fold higher absorption rate than natural curcumin powder. Theracurmin® is an inhibitor of nuclear factor-κB, which mediates the expression of inflammatory cytokines. The effect of Theracurmin® on inflammatory bowel disease in humans has not been explored; therefore, we investigated the efficacy and safety of Theracurmin® in patients with Crohn's disease.
METHODS
In this randomized, double-blinded study performed at 5 independent medical centers in Japan, Theracurmin® (360 mg/day, n=20) or placebo (n=10) was administered to patients with active mild-to-moderate Crohn's disease for 12 weeks. The agent's efficacy was assessed by evaluating clinical and endoscopic remission, healing of anal lesions, and blood levels of inflammatory markers.
RESULTS
In the Theracurmin® group, a significant reduction in clinical disease activity was observed in week 12 relative to that in week 0 (P=0.005). On intention-to-treat analysis, clinical remission rates were 35%, 40%, and 40% at weeks 4, 8, and 12, respectively, which were significantly higher than those in the placebo group (all 0%; P=0.033, P=0.020, and P=0.020, respectively). Furthermore, reduction in endoscopic Crohn's disease severity (P=0.032) was observed at week 12 in the Theracurmin® group. The endoscopic remission rates were 15% and 0% in the Theracurmin® and placebo groups, respectively. Significant healing of anal lesions (P=0.017) was observed at week 8 in the Theracurmin® group. No serious adverse events were observed in either group throughout the study.

1516,28549161,Cigarette Smoking Cessation Intervention for Buprenorphine Treatment Patients.,"Introduction
Patients receiving medication assisted therapy (MAT) for opioid use disorder have high cigarette smoking rates. Cigarette smoking interventions have had limited success. We evaluated an intervention to increase cigarette abstinence rates in patients receiving buprenorphine-assisted therapy.
Methods
Cigarette smokers (N = 175; 78% male; 69% Caucasian; 20% Hispanic), recruited from a buprenorphine clinic were randomly assigned to either an extended innovative system intervention (E-ISI) or to Standard Treatment Control (STC). The E-ISI combined motivational intervention with extended treatment (long-term nicotine replacement therapy , varenicline, and extended cognitive behavioral therapy). STC received written information about quit-lines, medication, and resources. Assessments were held at baseline and 3, 6, 12, and 18 months. Seven-day biochemically verified point-prevalence cigarette abstinence was the primary outcome measure.
Results
Fifty-four percent of E-ISI participants entered the extended treatment intervention; E-ISI and STC differed at 3 months on abstinence status but not at months 6, 12, and 18. E-ISI participants were more likely to attempt to quit, to have a goal of complete abstinence, and to be in a more advanced stage of change than STC participants. A higher number of cigarettes smoked and the use of cannabis in the previous 30 days predicted continued smoking.
Conclusions
The E-ISI was successful in increasing motivation to quit smoking but did not result in long-term abstinence. The failure of treatments that have been efficacious in the general population to produce abstinence in patients receiving MAT of opioid use disorder suggests that harm reduction and other innovative interventions should be explored.
Implications
This study demonstrates that an intervention combining motivational interviewing with an extended treatment protocol can increase cigarette quit attempts, enhance cigarette abstinence goals, and further movement through stages of change about quitting smoking in patients receiving MAT for opioid use disorder who smoke cigarettes. The intervention did not increase abstinence rates over those observed in a standard treatment control, however. The latter finding supports those of earlier investigators who also failed to find efficacy for smoking cessation in this population and who also used interventions effective in the general population. This pattern of findings suggests that patients with opioid use disorder can be motivated to change smoking behavior, but alternative and innovative approaches to cigarette smoking treatment should be studied.",2018,"The failure of treatments that have been efficacious in the general population to produce abstinence in patients receiving MAT of opioid use disorder suggests that harm reduction and other innovative interventions should be explored.

1517,28734759,"Nivolumab in patients with metastatic DNA mismatch repair-deficient or microsatellite instability-high colorectal cancer (CheckMate 142): an open-label, multicentre, phase 2 study.","BACKGROUND
Metastatic DNA mismatch repair-deficient (dMMR)/microsatellite instability-high (MSI-H) colorectal cancer has a poor prognosis after treatment with conventional chemotherapy and exhibits high levels of tumour neoantigens, tumour-infiltrating lymphocytes, and checkpoint regulators. All of these features are associated with the response to PD-1 blockade in other tumour types. Therefore, we aimed to study nivolumab, a PD-1 immune checkpoint inhibitor, in patients with dMMR/MSI-H metastatic colorectal cancer.
METHODS
In this ongoing, multicentre, open-label, phase 2 trial, we enrolled adults (aged ≥18 years) with histologically confirmed recurrent or metastatic colorectal cancer locally assessed as dMMR/MSI-H from 31 sites (academic centres and hospitals) in eight countries (Australia, Belgium, Canada, France, Ireland, Italy, Spain, and the USA). Eligible patients had progressed on or after, or been intolerant of, at least one previous line of treatment, including a fluoropyrimidine and oxaliplatin or irinotecan. Patients were given 3 mg/kg nivolumab every 2 weeks until disease progression, death, unacceptable toxic effects, or withdrawal from study. The primary endpoint was investigator-assessed objective response as per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (version 1.1). All patients who received at least one dose of study drug were included in all analyses. This trial is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, number NCT02060188.
FINDINGS
Of the 74 patients who were enrolled between March 12, 2014, and March 16, 2016, 40 (54%) had received three or more previous treatments. At a median follow-up of 12·0 months (IQR 8·6-18·0), 23 (31·1%, 95% CI 20·8-42·9) of 74 patients achieved an investigator-assessed objective response and 51 (69%, 57-79) patients had disease control for 12 weeks or longer. Median duration of response was not yet reached; all responders were alive, and eight had responses lasting 12 months or longer (Kaplan-Meier 12-month estimate 86%, 95% CI 62-95). The most common grade 3 or 4 drug-related adverse events were increased concentrations of lipase (six [8%]) and amylase (two [3%]). 23 (31%) patients died during the study; none of these deaths were deemed to be treatment related by the investigator.
INTERPRETATION

1519,28471839,Brief Report: Impact of Early Antiretroviral Therapy on the Performance of HIV Rapid Tests and HIV Incidence Assays.,"BACKGROUND
Antiretroviral therapy (ART) can downregulate antibody responses to HIV infection. We evaluated the impact of early vs. delayed ART on the performance of HIV diagnostic and incidence assays.
METHODS
Samples were obtained from 207 participants in the HPTN 052 trial, who were stably suppressed on ART for ≥4 years [Malawi sites; pre-ART CD4 cell count 350-550 cells/mm (early ART arm, N = 180) or <250 cells/mm or an AIDS-defining illness (delayed ART arm, N = 27)]. Samples were tested with 2 HIV rapid tests and 2 HIV incidence assays; selected samples were also tested with two fourth-generation immunoassays and a Western blot (WB) assay. A pre-ART sample was analyzed if the follow-up sample had a false-negative or weakly-reactive rapid test result, or had an incidence assay result indicative of recent infection (false-recent result).
RESULTS
Ten (4.8%) samples had a nonreactive or weakly-reactive rapid test result (7/180 early ART arm, 3/27 delayed ART arm, P = 0.13); one sample had nonreactive fourth-generation assay results and 3 had indeterminate WBs. Forty (18.9%) samples had a false-recent incidence assay result; 16 (7.8%) had false-recent results with both incidence assays. Baseline samples had stronger rapid test and WB bands, higher fourth-generation assay signal-to-cutoff values, and fewer HIV incidence assay results indicative of recent infection.
CONCLUSIONS
False-negative/weakly-reactive HIV rapid tests and false-recent HIV incidence assay results were observed in virally-suppressed individuals, regardless of pre-ART CD4 cell count. Downregulation of the antibody response to HIV infection in the setting of ART may impact population-level surveys of HIV prevalence and incidence.",2017,Forty (18.9%) samples had a false-recent incidence assay result; 16 (7.8%) had false-recent results with both incidence assays.,"['Samples were obtained from 207 participants in the HPTN 052 trial, who were stably suppressed on ART for ≥4 years [Malawi sites; pre-ART CD4 cell count 350-550 cells/mm (early ART arm, N = 180) or <250 cells/mm or an AIDS-defining illness (delayed ART arm, N = 27']","['Early Antiretroviral Therapy', 'Antiretroviral therapy (ART']",['Performance of HIV Rapid Tests and HIV Incidence Assays'],"[{'cui': 'C0441621', 'cui_str': 'Sampling - action (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C1301820', 'cui_str': 'Obtained (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C1260953', 'cui_str': 'Suppressed (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0003826', 'cui_str': 'Arts'}, {'cui': 'C0439234', 'cui_str': 'year (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0024548', 'cui_str': 'Republic of Malawi'}, {'cui': 'C0205145', 'cui_str': 'Site (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0740175', 'cui_str': 'Before values (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0243009', 'cui_str': 'CD4+ Counts'}, {'cui': 'C4517735', 'cui_str': '350'}, {'cui': 'C3844103', 'cui_str': '550 (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0007634', 'cui_str': 'Cells'}, {'cui': 'C1279919', 'cui_str': 'Early (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C1140618', 'cui_str': 'Membrum superius'}, {'cui': 'C4319557', 'cui_str': '180'}, {'cui': 'C2348831', 'cui_str': '250'}, {'cui': 'C3539106', 'cui_str': 'Sufficiently defined concept definition status (core metadata concept)'}, {'cui': 'C0221423', 'cui_str': 'Illness (finding)'}]","[{'cui': 'C1279919', 'cui_str': 'Early (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C1963724', 'cui_str': 'Antiretroviral therapy'}, {'cui': 'C0003826', 'cui_str': 'Arts'}]","[{'cui': 'C0019682', 'cui_str': 'HTLV-III'}, {'cui': 'C0456962', 'cui_str': 'Rapidly'}, {'cui': 'C0392366', 'cui_str': 'Tests (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0220856', 'cui_str': 'incidence'}, {'cui': 'C1510438', 'cui_str': 'Assay technique (qualifier value)'}]",,0.273749,Forty (18.9%) samples had a false-recent incidence assay result; 16 (7.8%) had false-recent results with both incidence assays.,"[{'ForeName': 'Jessica M', 'Initials': 'JM', 'LastName': 'Fogel', 'Affiliation': 'Departments of *Pathology; and †Medicine, Johns Hopkins University, School of Medicine, Baltimore, MD; ‡Laboratory of Immunoregulation, Division of Intramural Research, National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, National Institutes of Health, Baltimore, MD; §Vaccine and Infectious Disease Division, Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center, Seattle, WA; ‖Science Facilitation Department, FHI 360, Washington, DC; ¶Science Facilitation Department, FHI 360, Durham, NC; #UNC Project Laboratory, Tidziwe Centre, Kamuzu Central Hospital, Lilongwe, Malawi; **College of Medicine-Johns Hopkins Project, Blantyre, Malawi; ††Division of Infectious Diseases, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, Chapel Hill, NC; ‡‡UNC Project-Malawi, Institute for Global Health and Infectious Diseases, Lilongwe, Malawi; §§Vaccine and Infectious Disease Division and Public Health Sciences Division, Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center, Seattle, WA; and ‖‖Department of Medicine, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, Chapel Hill, NC.'}, {'ForeName': 'Estelle', 'Initials': 'E', 'LastName': 'Piwowar-Manning', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Barbara', 'Initials': 'B', 'LastName': 'Debevec', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Tamara', 'Initials': 'T', 'LastName': 'Walsky', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Katherine', 'Initials': 'K', 'LastName': 'Schlusser', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Oliver', 'Initials': 'O', 'LastName': 'Laeyendecker', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Ethan A', 'Initials': 'EA', 'LastName': 'Wilson', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Marybeth', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'McCauley', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Theresa', 'Initials': 'T', 'LastName': 'Gamble', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Gerald', 'Initials': 'G', 'LastName': 'Tegha', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Dean', 'Initials': 'D', 'LastName': 'Soko', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Johnstone', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Kumwenda', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Mina C', 'Initials': 'MC', 'LastName': 'Hosseinipour', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Ying Q', 'Initials': 'YQ', 'LastName': 'Chen', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Myron S', 'Initials': 'MS', 'LastName': 'Cohen', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Susan H', 'Initials': 'SH', 'LastName': 'Eshleman', 'Affiliation': ''}]",Journal of acquired immune deficiency syndromes (1999),['10.1097/QAI.0000000000001421']

1521,32412683,Costs and uptake of a community model of paediatric food allergy care versus specialist hospital care: A before-and-after controlled trial.,"AIM
To compare the costs of community-based food allergy model of care (intervention cohort, IC) with a tertiary-hospital, specialist allergy clinic model of care (control cohort, CC).
METHODS
In this pragmatic controlled trial, children (aged 0-12 years) newly referred to the allergy clinic at Melbourne's Royal Children's Hospital with suspected/known food allergy to three or fewer foods were allocated to see either a community-based paediatrician, trained via online webinars and web-based clinical decision support tools for food allergy diagnosis and management, or a hospital allergist. Per-patient costs to the health-care system and out-of-pocket costs to families seen within 12 months (clinician time, allergy tests and medicare billing) were compared between the two models of care.
RESULTS
At 12 months, 54/181 (30%) CC families had been seen in the allergy clinic and 93/115 (81%) of the IC families who chose to see a community paediatrician had been seen. In an intention-to-treat analysis (ITT), health-care system costs per IC patient were higher than the costs per CC patient (mean cost $333 versus $319, respectively; mean difference $14, 95% Confidence Interval (CI) -97 to 118, P = 0.81). Total out-of-pocket costs to family were $129 in the IC compared with $89 in the CC (mean difference $40, 95% CI $4-$77, P = 0.03).

1522,29031771,A nonrandomized controlled clinical pilot trial on 8 wk of intermittent fasting (24 h/wk).,"OBJECTIVE
The aim of the study was to evaluate whether intermittent fasting (IF) is an effective preventive measure, and whether it is feasible for healthy volunteers under every day conditions.
METHODS
A nonrandomized controlled clinical trial on IF was performed with healthy volunteers over a period of 8 wk, and a subsequent 4-mo follow-up. Outcomes were assessed at baseline, after 8 wk, and after 6 mo. Volunteers who were not interested in fasting served as a control group. Participants in the fasting group were asked to continue their regular nutritional habits on the nonfasting days, whereas the control group maintained their habitual nutrition throughout the whole period. Outcomes included changes of metabolic parameters (insulin, glucose, insulin resistance, insulin-like growth factor-1, brain-derived neurotropic factor, lipids, liver enzymes, hemoglobin A1c) and coagulation markers; bioelectrical impedance analysis; body mass index; abdominal girth; blood pressure; general quality of life (five-item World Health Organization Well-Being Index [WHO-5] questionnaire), as well as mood and anxiety (Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale [HADS], Profile of Mood States, Flourishing-Scale, visual analog scale, Likert scales). The intervention consisted of a fasting day, which was repeated every week for 8 wk, with abstinence from solid food between 00:00 and 23:59 at minimum and a maximum caloric intake of 300 kcal on each fasting day. A per-protocol analysis was performed. P < 0.05 was considered significant.
RESULTS
Thirty-six volunteers were included; 22 allocated themselves to the fasting group, and 14 to the control group. Thirty-three data sets were included in the final analysis. Although significant in-group changes were observed in both groups for a number of outcomes after 8 wk and 6 mo, no significant between-group differences were observed for any outcome other than overall body fat mass after 8 wk as well as for the HADS total score and the WHO-5 total score after 6 mo, all in favor of the fasting group. However, none of the between-group differences were clinically relevant.

1523,31813281,Baseline Characteristics of the VANISH Cohort.,"BACKGROUND
The VANISH trial (Valsartan for Attenuating Disease Evolution in Early Sarcomeric Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy) targeted young sarcomeric gene mutation carriers with early-stage hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) to test whether valsartan can modify disease progression. We describe the baseline characteristics of the VANISH cohort and compare to previous trials evaluating angiotensin receptor blockers.
METHODS
Applying a randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled design, 178 participants with nonobstructive HCM (age, 23.3±10.1 years; 61% men) were randomized in the primary cohort and 34 (age, 16.5±4.9 years; 50% men) in the exploratory cohort of sarcomeric mutation carriers without left ventricular hypertrophy.
RESULTS
In the primary cohort, maximal left ventricular wall thickness was 17±4 mm for adults and Z score 7.0±4.5 for children. Nineteen percent had late gadolinium enhancement on cardiac magnetic resonance. Mean peak oxygen consumption was 33 mL/kg per minute, and 92% of participants were New York Heart Association functional class I. New York Heart Association class II was associated with older age, MYH7 variants, and more prominent imaging abnormalities. Six previous trials of angiotensin receptor blockers in HCM enrolled a median of 24 patients (range, 19-133) with mean age of 51.2 years; 42% of patients were in New York Heart Association class ≥II, and sarcomeric mutations were not required.
CONCLUSIONS
The VANISH cohort is much larger, younger, less heterogeneous, and has less advanced disease than prior angiotensin receptor blocker trials in HCM. Participants had relatively normal functional capacity and mild HCM features. New York Heart Association functional class II symptoms were associated with older age, more prominent imaging abnormalities, and MYH7 variants, suggesting both phenotype and genotype contribute to disease manifestations.

1524,32412700,"Esketamine Nasal Spray for Rapid Reduction of Major Depressive Disorder Symptoms in Patients Who Have Active Suicidal Ideation With Intent: Double-Blind, Randomized Study (ASPIRE I).","OBJECTIVE
To compare esketamine to placebo, each in addition to standard-of-care treatment, for rapidly reducing major depressive disorder symptoms, including suicidal ideation.
METHODS
This phase 3, double-blind, multicenter study (ASPIRE I), conducted between June 2017 and December 2018, enrolled 226 adults having major depressive disorder based on Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders fifth edition (DSM-5) criteria, active suicidal ideation with intent, and need for psychiatric hospitalization. Patients were randomized 1:1 to esketamine 84 mg or placebo nasal spray twice-weekly for 4 weeks, each with comprehensive standard-of-care treatment (initial psychiatric hospitalization and newly initiated or optimized oral antidepressant[s] therapy). Change from baseline to 24 hours post-first dose in Montgomery-Asberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS) total score (primary endpoint) was analyzed using analysis of covariance (ANCOVA), and change in Clinical Global Impression of Severity of Suicidality Revised version (CGI-SS-r; key secondary endpoint) score was analyzed using ANCOVA on ranks with treatment difference estimated using the Hodges-Lehmann estimate.
RESULTS
Greater improvement in MADRS total score was observed with esketamine + standard-of-care versus placebo + standard-of-care at 24 hours (least-squares mean difference [SE]: -3.8 [1.39]; 95% CI, -6.56 to -1.09; 2-sided P = .006), as well as at earlier (4 hours) and later time points during 4-week double-blind treatment. The difference between groups in the severity of suicidality was not statistically significant (median of treatment difference [95% CI]: 0.0 [-1.00 to 0.00]; 2-sided P = .107). The most common adverse events among esketamine-treated patients were dizziness, dissociation, headache, nausea, and somnolence.
CONCLUSIONS
These findings demonstrate rapid and robust efficacy of esketamine nasal spray in reducing depressive symptoms in severely ill patients with major depressive disorder who have active suicidal ideation with intent.

We addressed these inconsistencies in a placebo-controlled single-dose testosterone administration study, in which 120 male participants were randomly assigned to undergo a cold-pressor test (CPT, a non-social somatic stressor), a socially evaluated cold-pressor test (SECPT, a social-somatic stressor), or a lukewarm water test (LWT, a non-stressful control condition). Throughout the experiment, blood pressure and interbeat intervals were measured continuously, and saliva samples for hormonal analyses were taken repeatedly at predefined time points. When comparing the groups treated with placebo, the SECPT elicited a larger increase in the systolic blood pressure than CPT, in agreement with previous studies. However, testosterone administration altered this pattern. Compared to placebo, testosterone increased systolic blood pressure during the CPT, whereas the opposite effect was found during the SECPT. Cortisol reactivity was not affected by testosterone administration. The CAG repeat polymorphism of the androgen receptor gene was unrelated to the effects of testosterone on the stress response, but it was correlated with blood pressure across the whole sample. Our findings demonstrate that testosterone's effects on the stress response are dependent on the social context. Testosterone's ability to flexibly influence the response to stressors may be an important mechanism through which the hormone promotes adaptive behavior. Our results are also in line with research showing that testosterone decreases social anxiety and suggest it may help to modulate the effects of stress in socially challenging situations.",2020,"When comparing the groups treated with placebo, the SECPT elicited a larger increase in the systolic blood pressure than CPT, in agreement with previous studies.",['120 male participants'],"['SECPT', 'placebo, testosterone', 'testosterone', 'placebo-controlled single-dose testosterone', 'Testosterone', 'cold-pressor test (CPT, a non-social somatic stressor), a socially evaluated cold-pressor test (SECPT, a social-somatic stressor), or a lukewarm water test (LWT, a non-stressful control condition', 'placebo']","['blood pressure', 'blood pressure and interbeat intervals', 'systolic blood pressure', 'social anxiety', 'Cortisol reactivity']","[{'cui': 'C4319550', 'cui_str': '120'}, {'cui': 'C0086582', 'cui_str': 'Male'}]","[{'cui': 'C0032042', 'cui_str': 'Sham Treatment'}, {'cui': 'C0039601', 'cui_str': 'Testosterone'}, {'cui': 'C0009932', 'cui_str': 'Control Groups'}, {'cui': 'C0037179', 'cui_str': 'Single person'}, {'cui': 'C0178602', 'cui_str': 'Dosage'}, {'cui': 'C0444689', 'cui_str': 'Cold pressor test'}, {'cui': 'C0006938', 'cui_str': 'Captopril'}, {'cui': 'C1257909', 'cui_str': 'Diploid Cell'}, {'cui': 'C0020311', 'cui_str': 'Hydrotherapy'}, {'cui': 'C0003647', 'cui_str': 'Aptitude Tests'}, {'cui': 'C0009647', 'cui_str': 'Conditioning'}]","[{'cui': 'C0005823', 'cui_str': 'Blood pressure'}, {'cui': 'C1272706', 'cui_str': 'Interval'}, {'cui': 'C0871470', 'cui_str': 'Systolic blood pressure'}, {'cui': 'C0424166', 'cui_str': 'Social fear'}, {'cui': 'C0020268', 'cui_str': 'Hydrocortisone'}, {'cui': 'C0443286', 'cui_str': 'Reaction'}]",120.0,0.036,"When comparing the groups treated with placebo, the SECPT elicited a larger increase in the systolic blood pressure than CPT, in agreement with previous studies.","[{'ForeName': 'Hana H', 'Initials': 'HH', 'LastName': 'Kutlikova', 'Affiliation': 'Neuropsychopharmacology and Biopsychology Unit, Department of Cognition, Emotion, and Methods in Psychology, Faculty of Psychology, University of Vienna, Liebiggasse 5, 1010 Vienna, Austria.

This study addresses flipped learning as an innovative approach in the teaching and learning processes of physical education at two educational stages, primary and secondary education. The objective of this study is to analyze the effectiveness of flipped learning with respect to traditional methodology. A descriptive and correlational experimental research design was used through a quantitative perspective. Two study groups were established, one control (traditional methodology) and one experimental (flipped learning) in each educational stage. A total of 119 students from an educational center in Ceuta (Spain) participated. These participants were chosen intentionally. The data were collected through a questionnaire. The results show that the experimental group obtained better evaluations in the academic indicators, highlighting the motivation, autonomy, and interactions between the different agents.

We aimed to evaluate the long-term effect of G-CSF on overall survival, event-free survival, probability of secondary myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) or acute myeloid leukemia (AML), clinical paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria, relapse, avascular osteonecrosis and chronic kidney disease. The median follow-up was 11.7 years (95% CI, 10.9-12.5). The overall survival rate at 15 years was 57±12% in the group given G-CSF and 63±12% in the group not given G-CSF ( P =0.92); the corresponding event-free survival rates were 24±10% and 23±10%, respectively ( P =0.36). In total, 9 patients developed MDS or AML, 10 only a clonal cytogenetic abnormality, 7 a solid cancer, 18 clinical paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria, 8 osteonecrosis, and 12 chronic kidney disease, without any difference between patients treated with or without G-CSF. The cumulative incidence of MDS, AML or isolated cytogenetic abnormality at 15 years was 8.5±3% for the G-CSF group and 8.2±3% for the non-G-CSF group ( P =0.90).

1529,31575824,The Impact of a Foot-Toe Orthosis on Dynamic Balance: An Exploratory Randomized Control Trial.,"CONTEXT
The influence of custom and over-the-counter foot orthoses on dynamic balance has been investigated in the past. However, there has not been an exploration of the use of a foot-toe orthosis for improving balance. The ability of clinicians to influence balance could have important implications for injury prevention and rehabilitation.
OBJECTIVE
To determine the impact of a foot-toe orthosis on dynamic balance in healthy, young adults.
DESIGN
Randomized control trial.
SETTING
Athletic training laboratory.
PARTICIPANTS
In total, 64 healthy, recreationally active participants aged 18-29 years were randomly allocated to one of the following groups: the foot-toe orthosis and laboratory-issued shoe group, the laboratory-issued shoe only (SO) group, or the control group.
INTERVENTIONS
Subjects in the intervention group wore the foot-toe orthosis and laboratory-issued shoe with activities of daily living for 4 weeks. Subjects in the SO intervention group wore the laboratory-issued shoe with activities of daily living for 4 weeks. Participants in the control group did not receive any intervention.
MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES
The instrumented version of the Star Excursion Balance Test, known as the Lower Quarter Y-Balance Test, was used to quantify the dynamic balance at baseline and follow-up. Reaches were normalized for leg length.
RESULTS
There were statistically significant differences in postintervention scores on the Lower Quarter Y-Balance Test for both the dominant (P = .03, effect size = 0.84; 95% confidence interval, 0.25 to 1.43) and nondominant (P = .002, effect size = 0.74; 95% confidence interval, 0.15 to 1.32) legs when comparing dynamic balance scores of the foot-toe orthosis and laboratory-issued shoe group with the SO and control groups. No significant differences were observed when comparing dynamic balance between the SO and control groups.

1530,31828490,Effects of an exercise-based oncology rehabilitation program and age on strength and physical function in cancer survivors.,"PURPOSE
Cancer therapy diminishes strength and physical function in cancer survivors. Whether oncology rehabilitation (OR) exercise training following therapy can correct these deficits, and whether its effectiveness differs by age, is not clear. We examine the utility of a clinically based, 12-week, combined aerobic and resistance training intervention on muscle strength and physical function in two age groups of cancer survivors.
METHODS
Strength and physical function measures were assessed in middle-aged (45 to 64 years) and older (≥ 65 years) patients following treatment for stage 0-III cancer before and after the OR training program.
RESULTS
Older patients had lower physical function compared to middle-aged patients across a range of subjective and objective measures at baseline, and exercise improved all indices of physical function and strength in both age groups. Compared to the middle-aged individuals, older participants tended to have less improvement leg strength and the 5 time sit to stand (5TSTS) test as a result of OR. In models predicting post-intervention measures, older age contributed to less improvement in walking distance and power as well as the 5TSTS test.
CONCLUSION
Prior to beginning the OR exercise program, middle-aged patients had higher physical function compared to older patients. However, a 12-week aerobic and resistance training intervention improved physical function across both age groups, although older age did limit responsiveness in some physical function measures. The physical function and strength of middle-aged and older cancer survivors improve in response to an exercise-based OR program after cancer treatment.",2019,"RESULTS

1531,32119035,Dose-Ranging Effect of Adjunctive Oral Cannabidiol vs Placebo on Convulsive Seizure Frequency in Dravet Syndrome: A Randomized Clinical Trial.,"Importance
Clinical evidence supports effectiveness of cannabidiol for treatment-resistant seizures in Dravet syndrome, but this trial is the first to evaluate the 10-mg/kg/d dose.
Objective
To evaluate the efficacy and safety of a pharmaceutical formulation of cannabidiol, 10 and 20 mg/kg/d, vs placebo for adjunctive treatment of convulsive seizures in patients with Dravet syndrome.
Design, Setting, and Participants
This double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized clinical trial (GWPCARE2) recruited patients from April 13, 2015, to November 10, 2017, with follow-up completed on April 9, 2018. Of 285 patients screened from 38 centers in the United States, Spain, Poland, the Netherlands, Australia, and Israel, 86 were excluded, and 199 were randomized. Patients were aged 2 to 18 years with a confirmed diagnosis of Dravet syndrome and at least 4 convulsive seizures during the 4-week baseline period while receiving at least 1 antiepileptic drug. Data were analyzed from November 16 (date of unblinding) to December 13 (date of final outputs), 2018, based on intention to treat and per protocol.
Interventions
Patients received cannabidiol oral solution at a dose of 10 or 20 mg/kg per day (CBD10 and CBD20 groups, respectively) or matched placebo in 2 equally divided doses for 14 weeks. All patients, caregivers, investigators, and individuals assessing data were blinded to group assignment.
Main Outcomes and Measures
The primary outcome was change from baseline in convulsive seizure frequency during the treatment period. Secondary outcomes included change in all seizure frequency, proportion with at least a 50% reduction in convulsive seizure activity, and change in Caregiver Global Impression of Change score.
Results
Of 198 eligible patients (mean [SD] age, 9.3 [4.4] years; 104 female [52.5%]), 66 were randomized to the CBD10 group, 67 to the CBD20 group, and 65 to the placebo group, and 190 completed treatment. The percentage reduction from baseline in convulsive seizure frequency was 48.7% for CBD10 group and 45.7% for the CBD20 group vs 26.9% for the placebo group; the percentage reduction from placebo was 29.8% (95% CI, 8.4%-46.2%; P = .01) for CBD10 group and 25.7% (95% CI, 2.9%-43.2%; P = .03) for the CBD20 group. The most common adverse events were decreased appetite, diarrhea, somnolence, pyrexia, and fatigue. Five patients in the CBD20 group discontinued owing to adverse events. Elevated liver transaminase levels occurred more frequently in the CBD20 (n = 13) than the CBD10 (n = 3) group, with all affected patients given concomitant valproate sodium.
Conclusions and Relevance
Adjunctive cannabidiol at doses of 10 and 20 mg/kg/d led to similar clinically relevant reductions in convulsive seizure frequency with a better safety and tolerability profile for the 10-mg/kg/d dose in children with treatment-resistant Dravet syndrome. Dose increases of cannabidiol to greater than 10 mg/kg/d should be tailored to individual efficacy and safety.

1532,31836146,Evaluation of a journal club preparatory session on student confidence for a graded journal club.,"INTRODUCTION
The purpose of this project was to describe and assess the impact of a journal club preparatory session on advanced pharmacy practice experience (APPE) student confidence pre- and post-graded journal club.
METHODS
A two-hour journal club preparatory session was implemented for APPE students on rotation with two clinical faculty members. The pre-assessment instructional activity was conducted the first week of each rotation; faculty members took turns working through a randomized-controlled clinical trial, highlighting and discussing key points based on their backgrounds and training. In week three, each student completed a graded journal club assignment that required a written critique and verbal presentation. Student confidence was evaluated pre-and post-activities; the pre-survey was completed prior to the journal club preparatory session and the post-survey was completed in week six.
RESULTS
Thirty-two APPE rotation students participated in journal club activities, with 26 students providing complete data (81% response rate). Mean scores on confidence across all 11 items improved on the post-survey and were statistically significant (p < 0.05). There were no statistically significant differences on change in confidence based on gender, age, with or without an acute care rotation, and with or without previous journal club experience.
CONCLUSION
A journal club preparatory session that walks students through a process prior to a graded activity helps to increase student self-reported confidence.",2019,"There were no statistically significant differences on change in confidence based on gender, age, with or without an acute care rotation, and with or without previous journal club experience.

1533,32413812,Effects of a mindfulness based behavioral intervention for young adults with childhood maltreatment history on hippocampal morphometry: a pilot MRI study with voxel-based morphometry.,"Childhood maltreatment has long lasting impacts on neural development of the hippocampus, which is important for learning and memory. The present study aimed to assess the effects of a mindfulness based intervention on hippocampal morphometry and episodic memory in this population. We administered MRI, psychological questionnaires and an episodic memory task to 21 participants (5 males) before and after a mindfulness-based behavioral intervention, compared to 21 participants (7 males) on the waiting list. Changes in Gray Matter Volume (GMV) in bilateral hippocampi were analyzed with Voxel-Based Morphometry (VBM). One cluster was identified in the right hippocampus with a group by time interaction effect that consisted of 130 contiguous voxels but fell short of significance with full FDR correction (p = 0.077). GMV in this cluster increased by 0.76% in the mindfulness group and decreased by 0.78% in the control group. Within the mindfulness group, changes in hippocampal GMV were negatively associated with changes in perceived stress and depression severity and positively associated with enhancement in performance accuracy on the episodic memory task. Findings from this pilot study suggest that a mindfulness-based intervention may lead to an increase in partial hippocampal GMV with associated symptom reduction and improvement in episodic memory.",2020,GMV in this cluster increased by 0.76% in the mindfulness group and decreased by 0.78% in the control group.,"['21 participants (5 males) before and after a', 'young adults with childhood maltreatment history on hippocampal morphometry']","['mindfulness based intervention', 'mindfulness-based behavioral intervention', 'mindfulness based behavioral intervention']","['perceived stress and depression severity', 'GMV', 'hippocampal morphometry and episodic memory', 'episodic memory', 'hippocampal GMV', 'partial hippocampal GMV', 'Gray Matter Volume (GMV']","[{'cui': 'C0086582', 'cui_str': 'Male'}, {'cui': 'C0238598', 'cui_str': 'Young Adult'}, {'cui': 'C0231335', 'cui_str': 'Childhood'}, {'cui': 'C0019664', 'cui_str': 'History'}, {'cui': 'C0019564', 'cui_str': 'Hippocampal structure'}, {'cui': 'C0200760', 'cui_str': 'Morphometric analysis'}]","[{'cui': 'C0086045', 'cui_str': 'Concentration'}, {'cui': 'C0002055', 'cui_str': 'Alkali'}, {'cui': 'C0184661', 'cui_str': 'Procedure'}, {'cui': 'C0004933', 'cui_str': 'Behavioral therapy'}]","[{'cui': 'C0030971', 'cui_str': 'Perception'}, {'cui': 'C0038435', 'cui_str': 'Stress'}, {'cui': 'C0011570', 'cui_str': 'Depression'}, {'cui': 'C0439793', 'cui_str': 'Severities'}, {'cui': 'C0018220', 'cui_str': 'Grey Matter'}, {'cui': 'C0449468', 'cui_str': 'Volume'}, {'cui': 'C0019564', 'cui_str': 'Hippocampal structure'}, {'cui': 'C0200760', 'cui_str': 'Morphometric analysis'}, {'cui': 'C0561843', 'cui_str': 'Episodic memory'}, {'cui': 'C0728938', 'cui_str': 'Partial'}]",130.0,0.0170544,GMV in this cluster increased by 0.76% in the mindfulness group and decreased by 0.78% in the control group.,"[{'ForeName': 'Diane', 'Initials': 'D', 'LastName': 'Joss', 'Affiliation': 'Developmental Biopsychiatry Research Program, McLean Hospital, Belmont, MA, USA; Department of Psychiatry, Massachusetts General Hospital, USA; Department of Psychiatry, Harvard Medical School, Boston, USA.

1534,31898118,Short-Term VA Health Care Expenditures Following a Health Risk Assessment and Coaching Trial.,"BACKGROUND
Short-term health care costs following completion of health risk assessments and coaching programs in the VA have not been assessed.
OBJECTIVE
To compare VA health care expenditures among veterans who participated in a behavioral intervention trial that randomized patients to complete a HRA followed by health coaching (HRA + coaching) or to complete the HRA without coaching (HRA-alone).
DESIGN
Four-hundred seventeen veterans at three Veterans Affairs (VA) Medical Centers or Clinics were randomized to HRA + coaching or HRA-alone. Veterans randomized to HRA-alone (n = 209) were encouraged to discuss HRA results with their primary care team, while veterans randomized to HRA + coaching (n = 208) received two brief telephone-delivered health coaching calls.
PARTICIPANTS
We included 411 veterans with available cost data.
MAIN MEASURES
Total VA health expenditures 6 months following trial enrollment were estimated using a generalized linear model with a gamma distribution and log link function. In exploratory analysis, model-based recursive partitioning was used to determine whether the intervention effect on short-term costs differed among any patient subgroups.
KEY RESULTS
Most participants were male (85%); mean age was 56, and mean body mass index was 34. From the generalized linear model, 6-month estimated mean total VA expenditures were similar ($8665 for HRA + coaching vs $9900 for HRA-alone, p = 0.25). In exploratory subgroup analysis, among unemployed veterans with good sleep and fair or poor perceived health, mean observed expenditures in the HRA + coaching group were higher than in the HRA-alone group ($12,814 vs $7971). Among unemployed veterans with good sleep and good general health, mean observed expenditures in the HRA + coaching group were lower than in the HRA-alone group ($5082 vs $11,612).
CONCLUSIONS
Compared to completing and receiving HRA results, working with health coaches to set actionable health behavior change goals following HRA completion did not reduce short-term health expenditures.

1535,31578954,"Bone mineral density in virologically suppressed people aged 60 years or older with HIV-1 switching from a regimen containing tenofovir disoproxil fumarate to an elvitegravir, cobicistat, emtricitabine, and tenofovir alafenamide single-tablet regimen: a multicentre, open-label, phase 3b, randomised trial.","BACKGROUND
Tenofovir alafenamide is associated with less renal and bone toxicity than tenofovir disoproxil fumarate and might improve the long-term safety of antiretroviral therapy. We aimed to investigate the effect on bone mineral density of switching from a regimen containing tenofovir disoproxil fumarate to one containing tenofovir alafenamide in participants aged 60 years and older.
METHODS
We did a prospective, open-label, multicentre, randomised trial in 36 European centres. Participants were virologically suppressed (HIV-1 RNA <50 copies per mL), aged 60 years or older, on a tenofovir disoproxil fumarate-containing regimen and were randomly assigned (2:1) via an interactive web-response system to open-label elvitegravir (150 mg), cobicistat (150 mg), emtricitabine (200 mg), and tenofovir alafenamide (10 mg) daily or continued therapy containing tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (300 mg). Participants were stratified by spine and hip bone mineral density categories. Primary endpoints were change from baseline to week 48 in spine and hip bone mineral density with a null hypothesis of zero between-group difference tested at a significance level of 0·05. This study was registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT02616783.
FINDINGS
Between Dec 22, 2015, and March 21, 2018, 167 participants were randomly assigned to elvitegravir, cobicistat, emtricitabine, and tenofovir alafenamide (n=111 [66%]) or tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (n=56 [34%]). One participant in the elvitegravir, cobicistat, emtricitabine, and tenofovir alafenamide group did not receive treatment and was excluded from all analyses. At week 48, the mean percentage change in spine bone mineral density was 2·24% (SD 3·27) in the elvitegravir, cobicistat, emtricitabine, and tenofovir alafenamide group and -0·10% (3·39) in the tenofovir disoproxil fumarate group (between-group difference 2·43% [95% CI 1·34-3·52]; p<0·0001), and mean percentage change in hip bone mineral density was 1·33% (2·20) in the elvitegravir, cobicistat, emtricitabine, and tenofovir alafenamide group and -0·73% (3·21) in the tenofovir disoproxil fumarate group (difference 2·04% [1·17-2·90]; p<0·0001). The most common adverse events were nasopharyngitis (12 [11%]), back pain (nine [8%]), and diarrhoea (eight [7%]) in the elvitegravir, cobicistat, emtricitabine, and tenofovir alafenamide group; and bronchitis (six [11%]), vitamin D deficiency (four [7%]), and arthralgia (four [7%]) in the tenofovir disoproxil fumarate group. 22 (20%) participants in the elvitegravir, cobicistat, emtricitabine, and tenofovir alafenamide group and one (2%) participant in the tenofovir disoproxil fumarate group had an adverse event that was considered to be related to treatment. No treatment-related serious adverse events were observed. The proportions of adverse events leading to premature treatment discontinuation were similar between groups (four [4%] in the elvitegravir, cobicistat, emtricitabine, and tenofovir alafenamide group; and one (2%) in the tenofovir disoproxil fumarate group).
INTERPRETATION
The significantly improved bone mineral density, overall safety, and efficacy data show the feasibility of switching from a regimen containing tenofovir disoproxil fumarate to elvitegravir, cobicistat, emtricitabine, and tenofovir alafenamide in virologically suppressed people living with HIV aged 60 years or older.

1536,32024491,Model of goal directed behavior for limiting Latino preschoolers' television viewing: validity and reliability.,"BACKGROUND
Accurately measuring parents' attitudes and beliefs regarding limiting their children's TV viewing is important to inform the design and evaluation of effective interventions. This manuscript assesses the internal consistency reliability, test-retest reliability, convergent validity, and construct validity of the Model of Goal Directed Behavior (MGDB) scales among parents of Latino preschoolers to characterize Latino parents' attitudes and beliefs toward limiting their preschoolers' TV viewing.
METHOD
Participants included parents of Latino preschoolers in the United States, 3-5 years old (n = 186). Parents completed a socio-demographic survey and the 105-item MGDB questionnaire (Attitudes, Perceived Positive/Negative Behavioral Control, Subjective Norms, Positive and Negative Anticipated Emotions, Habits, Self-Efficacy, Desires, and Intentions surrounding their child's TV viewing) which was used to measure internal consistency reliability and construct validity. A subsample of participants completed the questionnaire twice to measure test-retest reliability. Further, parents completed a 7-day TV viewing diary for their preschooler, and a TV parenting practices questionnaire as measures of convergent validity.
RESULTS
Internal consistency reliability was generally acceptable for the MGDB scales (Cronbach's alphas> 0.7), except for the Desires scale, which was revealed to have two factors and the Attitudes and Perceived Behavioral Control scales. Test-retest reliability over 2 months had negligible to moderate correlations (r's = 0.28 to 0.61). Two structural equation models were conducted. One yielded acceptable model fit (x 2 (97) = 113.65, p = .119) and the other had questionable model fit (x 2 (97) = 125.39; p = .028). Testing convergent validity, only two MGDB scales (Habits and Self-Efficacy) were positively correlated with the TV parenting practices questionnaire (r's = 0.33 to 0.51), and none were meaningfully correlated with preschoolers' mean daily TV viewing.
CONCLUSIONS
Initial reliability and validity for some of the MGDB scales appear acceptable among parents of Latino preschoolers. Refinement of the instrument and testing among larger samples is necessary to fully evaluate psychometric properties. This instrument may be useful for characterizing Latino parents' attitudes and beliefs toward limiting their preschoolers' TV viewing and informing future TV reduction interventions.

1537,32412796,Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1)-based receptor agonists as a treatment for Parkinson's disease.,"Introduction : Accumulating evidence supports the evaluation of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor (R) agonists for the treatment of the underlying pathology causing Parkinson's Disease (PD). Not only are these effects evident in models of PD and other neurodegenerative disorders but recently in a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial, a GLP-1R agonist has provided improved cognition motor functions in humans with moderate PD. Areas covered : In this mini-review, we describe the development of GLP-1R agonists and their potential therapeutic value in treating PD. Many GLP-1R agonists are FDA approved for the treatment of metabolic disorders, and hence can be rapidly repositioned for PD. Furthermore, we present preclinical data offering insights into the use of monomeric dual- and tri-agonist incretin-based mimetics for neurodegenerative disorders. These drugs combine active regions of GLP-1 with those of glucose-dependent insulinotropic peptide (GIP) and/or glucagon (Gcg). Expert opinion : GLP-1Ragonists offer a complementary and enhanced therapeutic value to other drugs used to treat PD. Moreover, the use of the dual- or tri-agonist GLP-1-based mimetics may provide combinatory effects that are even more powerful than GLP-1R agonism alone. We advocate for further investigations into the repurposing of GLP-1R agonists and the development of classes of multi-agonists for PD treatment.",2020,"Many GLP-1R agonists are FDA approved for the treatment of metabolic disorders, and hence can be rapidly repositioned for PD.","[""Parkinson's disease"", 'humans with moderate PD']","['Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1)-based receptor agonists', 'placebo']",['cognition motor functions'],"[{'cui': 'C0030567', 'cui_str': ""Parkinson's disease""}, {'cui': 'C0086418', 'cui_str': 'Homo sapiens'}, {'cui': 'C0205081', 'cui_str': 'Moderate'}]","[{'cui': 'C0061355', 'cui_str': 'Glucagon-like peptide 1'}, {'cui': 'C0002055', 'cui_str': 'Alkali'}, {'cui': 'C2987634', 'cui_str': 'Receptor agonist'}, {'cui': 'C0032042', 'cui_str': 'Sham Treatment'}]","[{'cui': 'C0009240', 'cui_str': 'Cognitive Function'}, {'cui': 'C0234130', 'cui_str': 'Motor function'}]",,0.0631103,"Many GLP-1R agonists are FDA approved for the treatment of metabolic disorders, and hence can be rapidly repositioned for PD.","[{'ForeName': 'Elliot J', 'Initials': 'EJ', 'LastName': 'Glotfelty', 'Affiliation': 'Translational Gerontology Branch, Intramural Research Program, National Institute on Aging, National Institutes of Health, Baltimore, MD, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Lars', 'Initials': 'L', 'LastName': 'Olson', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Neuroscience, Karolinska Institutet, Stockholm, Sweden.'}, {'ForeName': 'Tobias E', 'Initials': 'TE', 'LastName': 'Karlsson', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Neuroscience, Karolinska Institutet, Stockholm, Sweden.'}, {'ForeName': 'Yazhou', 'Initials': 'Y', 'LastName': 'Li', 'Affiliation': 'Translational Gerontology Branch, Intramural Research Program, National Institute on Aging, National Institutes of Health, Baltimore, MD, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Nigel H', 'Initials': 'NH', 'LastName': 'Greig', 'Affiliation': 'Translational Gerontology Branch, Intramural Research Program, National Institute on Aging, National Institutes of Health, Baltimore, MD, USA.'}]",Expert opinion on investigational drugs,['10.1080/13543784.2020.1764534']
1538,29909789,Prolonged grief disorder: clinical utility of ICD-11 diagnostic guidelines.,"BACKGROUND
The World Health Organization (WHO) International Classification of Disease (ICD-11) is expected to include a new diagnosis for prolonged grief disorder (ICD-11PGD). This study examines the validity and clinical utility of the ICD-11PGD guideline by testing its performance in a well-characterized clinical sample and contrasting it with a very different criteria set with the same name (PGDPLOS).
METHODS
We examined data from 261 treatment-seeking participants in the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH)-sponsored multicenter clinical trial to determine the rates of diagnosis using the ICD-11PGD guideline and compared these with diagnosis using PGDPLOS criteria.
RESULTS
The ICD-11PGD guideline identified 95.8% [95% confidence interval (CI) 93.3-98.2%] of a treatment-responsive cohort of patients with distressing and impairing grief. PGDPLOS criteria identified only 59.0% (95% CI 53.0-65.0%) and were more likely to omit those who lost someone other than a spouse, were currently married, bereaved by violent means, or not diagnosed with co-occurring depression. Those not diagnosed by PGDPLOS criteria showed the same rate of treatment response as those who were diagnosed.
CONCLUSIONS

1539,30328105,Enhanced availability of serotonin increases activation of unfatigued muscle but exacerbates central fatigue during prolonged sustained contractions.,"KEY POINTS
Animal preparations have revealed that moderate synaptic release of serotonin (5-HT) onto motoneurones enhances motor activity via activation of 5-HT 2 receptors, whereas intense release of 5-HT causes spillover of 5-HT to extrasynaptic 5-HT 1A receptors on the axon initial segment to reduce motoneurone activity. We explored if increasing extracellular concentrations of endogenously released 5-HT (via the selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor paroxetine) influences the ability to perform unfatigued and fatigued maximal voluntary contractions in humans. Following the ingestion of paroxetine, voluntary muscle activation and torque generation increased during brief unfatigued maximal contractions. In contrast, the ability to generate maximal torque with increased 5-HT availability was compromised under fatigued conditions, which was consistent with paroxetine-induced reductions in motoneurone excitability and voluntary muscle activation. This is the first in vivo human study to provide evidence that 5-HT released onto the motoneurones could play a role in central fatigue.
ABSTRACT
Brief stimulation of the raphe-spinal pathway in the turtle spinal cord releases serotonin (5-HT) onto motoneurones to enhance excitability. However, intense release of 5-HT via prolonged stimulation results in 5-HT spillover to the motoneurone axon initial segment to activate inhibitory 5-HT 1A receptors, thus providing a potential spinal mechanism for exercise-induced central fatigue. We examined how increased extracellular concentrations of 5-HT affect the ability to perform brief, as well as sustained, maximal voluntary contractions (MVCs) in humans. Paroxetine was used to enhance 5-HT concentrations by reuptake inhibition, and three studies were performed. Study 1 (n = 14) revealed that 5-HT reuptake inhibition caused an ∼4% increase in elbow flexion MVC. However, when maximal contractions were sustained, time-to-task failure was reduced and self-perceived fatigue was higher with enhanced availability of 5-HT. Study 2 (n = 11) used twitch interpolation to reveal that 5-HT-based changes in motor performance had a neural basis. Enhanced 5-HT availability increased voluntary activation for the unfatigued biceps brachii and decreased voluntary activation of the biceps brachii by 2-5% following repeated maximal elbow flexions. The final study (n = 8) investigated whether altered motoneurone excitability may contribute to 5-HT changes in voluntary activation. F-waves of the abductor digiti minimi (ADM) were unaffected by paroxetine for unfatigued muscle and marginally affected following a brief 2-s MVC. However, F-wave area and persistence were significantly decreased following a prolonged 60-s MVC of the ADM. Overall, high serotonergic drive provides a spinal mechanism by which higher concentrations of 5-HT may contribute to central fatigue.",2019,F-waves of the abductor digiti minimi (ADM) were unaffected by paroxetine for unfatigued muscle and marginally affected following a brief 2-s MVC.,['humans'],"['Paroxetine', 'paroxetine']","['voluntary activation of the biceps brachii', 'motoneurone excitability and voluntary muscle activation', '5-HT availability', 'time-to-task failure', 'elbow flexion MVC', '5-HT reuptake inhibition']","[{'cui': 'C0086418', 'cui_str': 'Homo sapiens'}]","[{'cui': 'C0070122', 'cui_str': 'Paroxetine'}]","[{'cui': 'C0439656', 'cui_str': 'Voluntary'}, {'cui': 'C0559499', 'cui_str': 'Biceps brachii muscle structure'}, {'cui': 'C0235169', 'cui_str': 'Excitability'}, {'cui': 'C0242692', 'cui_str': 'Skeletal muscle structure'}, {'cui': 'C0036751', 'cui_str': 'Serotonin'}, {'cui': 'C0470187', 'cui_str': 'Availability of'}, {'cui': 'C0040223', 'cui_str': 'Time'}, {'cui': 'C0231174', 'cui_str': 'Failure'}, {'cui': 'C0013769', 'cui_str': 'Elbow region structure'}, {'cui': 'C0231452', 'cui_str': 'Flexion'}, {'cui': 'C0021467', 'cui_str': 'Psychological Inhibition'}]",,0.0176821,F-waves of the abductor digiti minimi (ADM) were unaffected by paroxetine for unfatigued muscle and marginally affected following a brief 2-s MVC.,"[{'ForeName': 'Justin J', 'Initials': 'JJ', 'LastName': 'Kavanagh', 'Affiliation': 'Menzies Health Institute Queensland, Griffith University, Gold Coast, Australia.'}, {'ForeName': 'Amelia J', 'Initials': 'AJ', 'LastName': 'McFarland', 'Affiliation': 'School of Pharmacy and Pharmacology, Griffith University, Gold Coast, Australia.'}, {'ForeName': 'Janet L', 'Initials': 'JL', 'LastName': 'Taylor', 'Affiliation': 'School of Medical and Health Sciences, Edith Cowan University, Perth, Australia.'}]",The Journal of physiology,['10.1113/JP277148']
1540,32412809,Practice improves court mobility and self-efficacy in tennis-specific wheelchair propulsion.,"Purpose: Wheelchair tennis (WT) propulsion is uniquely characterized by the requirement for racket holding coupled with effective hand-rim contact. Thus, investigations involving strategies to enhance chair mobility skills are merited. The aim was to examine the effects of organized practice on WT match play responses and the impact of racket holding during practice. Materials and methods: Following physiological profiling involving graded and peak exercise testing, 16 able-bodied (AB) participants performed bouts of WT match play interspersed with practice involving wheelchair mobility drills completed with (R) or without (NR) a tennis racket. A data logger recorded distance and speed. Self-efficacy was reported. Results and conclusions: Significant main effects for match revealed higher post-practice overall and forwards distances ( p < 0.05), peak ( p < 0.005) and average ( p < 0.05) speeds and self-efficacy (SE) ( p = 0.001) were attained. During practice, lower distances and speeds were achieved with R , with a lower physiological cost than NR. Practice increases court movement and SE with no associated increases in physiological cost. Changes represent enhanced court mobility.

1541,31570519,The McCAVE Trial: Vanucizumab plus mFOLFOX-6 Versus Bevacizumab plus mFOLFOX-6 in Patients with Previously Untreated Metastatic Colorectal Carcinoma (mCRC).,"BACKGROUND
Bevacizumab, a VEGF-A inhibitor, in combination with chemotherapy, has proven to increase progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival in multiple lines of therapy of metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). The angiogenic factor angiopoetin-2 (Ang-2) is associated with poor prognosis in many cancers, including mCRC. Preclinical models demonstrate improved activity when inhibiting both VEGF-A and Ang-2, suggesting that the dual VEGF-A and Ang-2 blocker vanucizumab (RO5520985 or RG-7221) may improve clinical outcomes. This phase II trial evaluated the efficacy of vanucizumab plus modified (m)FOLFOX-6 (folinic acid (leucovorin), fluorouracil (5-FU) and oxaliplatin) versus bevacizumab/mFOLFOX-6 for first-line mCRC.
PATIENTS AND METHODS
All patients received mFOLFOX-6 and were randomized 1:1 to also receive vanucizumab 2,000 mg or bevacizumab 5 mg/kg every other week. Oxaliplatin was given for eight cycles; other agents were continued until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity for a maximum of 24 months. The primary endpoint was investigator-assessed PFS.
RESULTS
One hundred eighty-nine patients were randomized (vanucizumab, n = 94; bevacizumab, n = 95). The number of PFS events was comparable (vanucizumab, n = 39; bevacizumab, n = 43). The hazard ratio was 1.00 (95% confidence interval, 0.64-1.58; p = .98) in a stratified analysis based on number of metastatic sites and region. Objective response rate was 52.1% and 57.9% in the vanucizumab and bevacizumab arm, respectively. Baseline plasma Ang-2 levels were prognostic in both arms but not predictive for treatment effects on PFS of vanucizumab. The incidence of adverse events of grade ≥3 was similar between treatment arms (83.9% vs. 82.1%); gastrointestinal perforations (10.8% vs. 8.4%) exceeded previously reported rates in this setting. Hypertension and peripheral edema were more frequent in the vanucizumab arm.
CONCLUSION
Vanucizumab/mFOLFOX-6 did not improve PFS and was associated with increased rates of antiangiogenic toxicity compared with bevacizumab/mFOLFOX-6. Our results suggest that Ang-2 is not a relevant therapeutic target in first-line mCRC.
IMPLICATIONS FOR PRACTICE
This randomized phase II study demonstrates that additional angiopoietin-2 (Ang-2) inhibition does not result in superior benefit over anti-VEGF-A blockade alone when each added to standard chemotherapy. Moreover, the performed pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic analysis revealed that vanucizumab was bioavailable and affected its intended target, thereby strongly suggesting that Ang-2 is not a relevant therapeutic target in the clinical setting of treatment-naïve metastatic colorectal cancer. As a result, the further clinical development of the dual VEGF-A and Ang-2 inhibitor vanucizumab was discontinued.",2019,Baseline plasma Ang-2 levels were prognostic in both arms but not predictive

1542,31473167,Safety and pharmacokinetics of broadly neutralising human monoclonal antibody VRC07-523LS in healthy adults: a phase 1 dose-escalation clinical trial.,"BACKGROUND
Human monoclonal antibodies that potently and broadly neutralise HIV-1 are under development to prevent and treat HIV-1 infection. In this phase 1 clinical trial we aimed to determine the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetic profile of the broadly neutralising monoclonal antibody VRC07-523LS, an engineered variant of VRC01 that targets the CD4 binding site of the HIV-1 envelope protein.
METHODS
This phase 1, open-label, dose-escalation clinical trial was done at the National Institutes of Health Clinical Center in Bethesda, MD, USA. Individuals were recruited from the greater Washington, DC, area by IRB-approved written and electronic media. We enrolled healthy, HIV-1-negative adults aged 18-50 years. Inclusion criteria were good general health, measured through clinical laboratory tests, medical history, and physical examination. Participants self-selected into one of seven open groups during enrolment without randomisation. Four groups received a single intravenous dose of 1, 5, 20, or 40 mg/kg of VRC07-523LS, and one group received a single 5 mg/kg subcutaneous dose. Two groups received three doses of either 20 mg/kg intravenous VRC07-523LS, or 5 mg/kg subcutaneous VRC07-523LS at 12-week intervals. The primary outcome was the safety and tolerability of VRC07-523LS, assessed by dose, route, and number of administrations. This study is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT03015181.
FINDINGS
Between Feb 21, 2017, and September 13, 2017, we enrolled 26 participants, including 11 (42%) men and 15 (58%) women. Two (8%) participants withdrew from the study early: one participant in group 1 enrolled in the study but never received VRC07-523LS, and one participant in group 6 chose to withdraw after a single administration. One (4%) participant in group 7 received only one of the three scheduled administrations. 17 participants received intravenous administrations and 8 participants received subcutaneous administrations. VRC07-523LS was safe and well tolerated, we observed no serious adverse events or dose-limiting toxic effects. All reported local and systemic reactogenicity was mild to moderate in severity. The most commonly reported symptoms following intravenous administration were malaise or myalgia in three (18%) participants and headache or chills in two (12%) participants. The most commonly reported symptoms following subcutaneous administration were pain and tenderness in four participants (50%) and malaise or headache in three (38%) participants.
INTERPRETATION
Safe and well tolerated, VRC07-523LS is a strong and practical candidate for inclusion in HIV-1 prevention and therapeutic strategies. The results from this trial also indicate that an HIV-1 broadly neutralising monoclonal antibody engineered for improved pharmacokinetic and neutralisation properties can be safe for clinical use.

1544,31752969,Delivery of home-based postpartum contraception in rural Guatemalan women: a cluster-randomized trial protocol.,"BACKGROUND
Postpartum contraception is important to prevent unintended and closely spaced pregnancies following childbirth.
METHODS
This study is a cluster-randomized trial of communities in rural Guatemala where women receive ante- and postnatal care through a community-based nursing program. When nurses visit women for their postpartum visit in the intervention clusters, instead of providing only routine care that includes postpartum contraceptive education and counseling, the nurses will also bring a range of barrier, short-acting, and long-acting contraceptives that will be offered and administered in the home setting, after routine clinical care is provided.
DISCUSSION
A barrier to postpartum contraception is access to medications and devices. Our study removes some access barriers (distance, time, cost) by providing contraception in the home. We also trained community nurses to place implants, which are a type of long-acting reversible contraceptive method that was previously only available in the closest town which is about an hour away by vehicular travel. Therefore, our study examines how home-based delivery of routinely available contraceptives and the less routinely available implant may be associated with increased uptake of postpartum contraception within 3 months of childbirth. The potential implications of this study include that nurses may be able to be trained to safely provide contraceptives, including placing implants, in the home setting, and provision of home-based contraception may be an effective way of delivering an evidence-based intervention for preventing unintended and closely spaced pregnancies in the postpartum period.

1545,32412858,Predicting factors associated with hypoglycemia reduction with automated predictive insulin suspension in patients at high risk of severe hypoglycemia: an analysis from the SMILE randomized trial.,"BACKGROUND
This analysis from the SMILE randomized study was performed to identify predictive factors associated with the greatest reductions in hypoglycemia with the Medtronic MiniMed™ 640G Suspend before low feature in adults with type 1 diabetes at high risk of severe hypoglycemia.
METHODS
Clinical and treatment-related factors associated with decreased sensor hypoglycemia (SH) were identified in participants from the intervention arm by univariate and multivariate analyses.
RESULTS
The reduction in SH events <54mg/dL (<3.0 mmol/L) in the intervention group was significantly (p<0.0001) associated with the baseline mean number of sensor hypoglycemic events (MNSHE) <54mg/dL. When excluding CGM factors not readily available (MNSHE, duration of SH events, area under the curve [AUC], mean amplitude of glycemic excursions [MAGE]), only the baseline mean time spent <54mg/dL was found to be a significant independent predictor factor (p0.0001). Baseline HbA1c, mean self-monitoring of blood glucose (SMBG) and coefficient of variation (CV) of SMBG were significant, albeit weak, predictors in the absence of any CGM data.
CONCLUSIONS
The greatest reductions in SH events achieved with the MiniMed 640G system with the Suspend before low feature were seen in participants with higher baseline MNSHE. Measuring these (usually uncollected) events can be a useful tool to predict hypoglycemia reduction.",2020,"The reduction in SH events <54mg/dL (<3.0 mmol/L) in the intervention group was significantly (p<0.0001) associated with the baseline mean number of sensor hypoglycemic events (MNSHE) <54mg/dL.

Participants were asked to rate their trust in, confidence in, and comfort with the pictured individual on a response scale of 1 (low) to 7 (high), rank photos according to their preferences for attire, and provide input on the importance of attire and other appearance-related subjects. Attire and gender of photographed individual and participant demographics were investigated for associations with trust, confidence, and comfort scores.
RESULTS
Most (317/445 [71%]) respondents indicated veterinarians' attire was important. Attire type was significantly associated with respondents' trust, confidence, and comfort scores. Model veterinarian gender and participant education level were also associated with trust and comfort scores.
CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE
Veterinarians' attire is a form of nonverbal communication that is likely to inform clients' first impressions and may influence clients' trust in, confidence in, and comfort with a veterinarian. Veterinary personnel and veterinary management should consider how attire and general appearance represent staff members or their practice.",2020,"Attire type was significantly associated with respondents' trust, confidence, and comfort scores.","['SAMPLE\n\n\n449 pet owners', 'sample of pet owners in Canada', 'Participants']","[""veterinarians' attire"", 'questionnaire containing photos of a male or female model veterinarian photographed in 8 attire types (formal attire, white dress shirt with black pants, white casual shirt with khaki pants, surgical scrubs, white casual shirt with jeans, surgical scrub top with jeans, surgical scrub top with khaki pants, and white laboratory coat with khaki pants']","['ratings of trust, confidence, and comfort']","[{'cui': 'C0370003', 'cui_str': 'Specimen'}, {'cui': 'C0031268', 'cui_str': 'Companion Animals'}, {'cui': 'C0006823', 'cui_str': 'Canada'}]","[{'cui': 'C0242856', 'cui_str': 'Veterinarian'}, {'cui': 'C0034394', 'cui_str': 'Questionnaires'}, {'cui': 'C0332256', 'cui_str': 'Containing'}, {'cui': 'C0086582', 'cui_str': 'Male'}, {'cui': 'C0043210', 'cui_str': 'Woman'}, {'cui': 'C0026339', 'cui_str': 'Biological Models'}, {'cui': 'C0441468', 'cui_str': 'Photograph'}, {'cui': 'C0332307', 'cui_str': 'Type - attribute'}, {'cui': 'C0007457', 'cui_str': 'Caucasian'}, {'cui': 'C0013119', 'cui_str': 'Medical dressing'}, {'cui': 'C0453917', 'cui_str': 'Shirt'}, {'cui': 'C0005680', 'cui_str': 'Black - ethnic group'}, {'cui': 'C0425488', 'cui_str': 'Rapid shallow breathing'}, {'cui': 'C2936698', 'cui_str': 'Scrubbing, Surgical'}, {'cui': 'C0453932', 'cui_str': 'Jeans'}, {'cui': 'C0022877', 'cui_str': 'Laboratory'}, {'cui': 'C0453946', 'cui_str': 'Coat'}]","[{'cui': 'C0237935', 'cui_str': 'Trust'}, {'cui': 'C0237529', 'cui_str': 'Self-confidence'}]",,0.0405637,"Attire type was significantly associated with respondents' trust, confidence, and comfort scores.","[{'ForeName': 'Jason B', 'Initials': 'JB', 'LastName': 'Coe', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Rachel', 'Initials': 'R', 'LastName': ""O'Connor"", 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Christina N', 'Initials': 'CN', 'LastName': 'Pizzolon', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Kimberly A', 'Initials': 'KA', 'LastName': 'Hester', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Leandra J', 'Initials': 'LJ', 'LastName': 'Nogueira Borden', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Derek', 'Initials': 'D', 'LastName': 'Haley', 'Affiliation': ''}]",Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association,['10.2460/javma.256.11.1268']
1548,28193490,Physical activity and academic achievement across the curriculum: Results from a 3-year cluster-randomized trial.,"We compared changes in academic achievement across 3years between children in elementary schools receiving the Academic Achievement and Physical Activity Across the Curriculum intervention (A+PAAC), in which classroom teachers were trained to deliver academic lessons using moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) compared to a non-intervention control. Elementary schools in eastern Kansas (n=17) were cluster randomized to A+PAAC (N=9, target ≥100min/week) or control (N=8). Academic achievement (math, reading, spelling) was assessed using the Wechsler Individual Achievement Test-Third Edition (WIAT-III) in a sample of children (A+PAAC=316, Control=268) in grades 2 and 3 at baseline (Fall 2011) and repeated each spring across 3years. On average 55min/week of A+PACC lessons were delivered each week across the intervention. Baseline WIAT-III scores (math, reading, spelling) were significantly higher in students in A+PAAC compared with control schools and improved in both groups across 3years. However, linear mixed modeling, accounting for baseline between group differences in WIAT-III scores, ethnicity, family income, and cardiovascular fitness, found no significant impact of A+PAAC on any of the academic achievement outcomes as determined by non-significant group by time interactions. A+PAAC neither diminished or improved academic achievement across 3-years in elementary school children compared with controls.

1549,30690854,Predictors of mortality in patients with non-anterior ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction: Analysis from the HORIZONS-AMI trial.,"OBJECTIVES
We sought to identify clinical, electrocardiographic (ECG), and angiographic characteristics that are predictive of 3-year mortality after primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in patients with non-anterior ST-elevation myocardial infarction (NA-STEMI) from the Harmonizing Outcomes With Revascularization and Stents in Acute Myocardial Infarction (HORIZONS-AMI) trial.
BACKGROUND
Which patients with NA-STEMI undergoing PCI have a poor prognosis is uncertain.
METHODS
NA-STEMI was defined as ST-segment elevation in lateral (V5, V6, I, aVL), inferior (II, III, aVF), or inferolateral (I, II, III, aVF, and V5-V6) ECG leads or posterior myocardial infarction with ST-segment depression of ≥1 mm in ≥2 contiguous anterior leads. Cox regression was used to identify independent predictors of 3-year mortality. Missing data were imputed using multiple imputation.
RESULTS
In HORIZONS-AMI, 2,578/3,602 patients had no prior coronary artery bypass grafting, underwent single-vessel PCI, and had baseline ECG data assessed in an independent core laboratory. Among them, 1,495 (58.0%) had NA-STEMI. Patients with NA-STEMI had lower 3-year mortality risk than those with anterior STEMI (4.5% versus 7.1%, P = 0.004). The independent predictors of increased 3-year mortality in NA-STEMI were older age (median > 59.0 years), diabetes, reduced LVEF (≤50%), Killip class ≥2, post-procedure TIMI flow 0-2 versus 3, renal insufficiency, and ST-resolution <30% at 60 min post-PCI. Patients with 0, 1, 2, 3, and ≥4 of these risk factors had 3-year mortality rates of 1.8%, 2.3%, 3.1%, 6.1%, and 36.3%, respectively (P < 0.0001).
CONCLUSIONS
Although NA-STEMI carries a better prognosis than anterior STEMI, high-risk patient cohorts with NA-STEMI may be identified who have substantial 3-year mortality.",2019,"Patients with NA-STEMI had lower 3-year mortality risk than those with anterior STEMI (4.5% versus 7.1%, P = 0.004).","['patients with non-anterior ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction', 'patients with non-anterior ST-elevation myocardial infarction (NA-STEMI', 'Acute Myocardial Infarction', '2,578/3,602 patients had no prior coronary artery bypass grafting, underwent single-vessel PCI, and had baseline ECG data assessed in an independent core laboratory']","['primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI', 'Revascularization and Stents']","['3-year mortality rates', 'ST-segment elevation in lateral (V5, V6, I, aVL), inferior (II, III, aVF), or inferolateral (I, II, III, aVF, and V5-V6) ECG leads or posterior myocardial infarction with ST-segment depression', '3-year mortality risk', '3-year mortality']","[{'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C3874460', 'cui_str': 'Anterior ST segment elevation'}, {'cui': 'C0027051', 'cui_str': 'Heart Attack'}, {'cui': 'C0205094', 'cui_str': 'Anterior (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C1536220', 'cui_str': 'ST Elevated Myocardial Infarction'}, {'cui': 'C0155626', 'cui_str': 'Acute myocardial infarction (disorder)'}, {'cui': 'C0010055', 'cui_str': 'Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting'}, {'cui': 'C0205171', 'cui_str': 'Singular (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0148346', 'cui_str': 'Vessel'}, {'cui': 'C1623258', 'cui_str': 'ECG'}, {'cui': 'C1299583', 'cui_str': 'Independent'}, {'cui': 'C0444669', 'cui_str': 'Core (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0022877', 'cui_str': 'Laboratory'}]","[{'cui': 'C0439631', 'cui_str': 'Primary operation (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C1532338', 'cui_str': 'Percutaneous Coronary Revascularization'}, {'cui': 'C0581603', 'cui_str': 'Revascularization - action (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0038257', 'cui_str': 'Stents'}]","[{'cui': 'C0439234', 'cui_str': 'year (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0205848', 'cui_str': 'Death Rate'}, {'cui': 'C0520886', 'cui_str': 'ST segment elevation (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C0205093', 'cui_str': 'Lateral (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0449216', 'cui_str': 'aVL (body structure)'}, {'cui': 'C0542339', 'cui_str': 'Below (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0439070', 'cui_str': 'III'}, {'cui': 'C0449215', 'cui_str': 'aVF (body structure)'}, {'cui': 'C0179504', 'cui_str': 'ECG lead'}, {'cui': 'C0340319', 'cui_str': 'Posterior myocardial infarction'}, {'cui': 'C0520887', 'cui_str': 'ST segment depression (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C0026566', 'cui_str': 'mortality'}, {'cui': 'C0035647', 'cui_str': 'Risk'}]",,0.0377035,"Patients with NA-STEMI had lower 3-year mortality risk than those with anterior STEMI (4.5% versus 7.1%, P = 0.004).","[{'ForeName': 'Xin', 'Initials': 'X', 'LastName': 'Huang', 'Affiliation': 'Clinical Trials Center, Cardiovascular Research Foundation, New York, New York.'}, {'ForeName': 'Björn', 'Initials': 'B', 'LastName': 'Redfors', 'Affiliation': 'Clinical Trials Center, Cardiovascular Research Foundation, New York, New York.'}, {'ForeName': 'Shmuel', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Chen', 'Affiliation': 'Clinical Trials Center, Cardiovascular Research Foundation, New York, New York.'}, {'ForeName': 'Bernard J', 'Initials': 'BJ', 'LastName': 'Gersh', 'Affiliation': 'Cardiovascular Division, Mayo Clinic, Rochester, Minnesota.'}, {'ForeName': 'Roxana', 'Initials': 'R', 'LastName': 'Mehran', 'Affiliation': 'Clinical Trials Center, Cardiovascular Research Foundation, New York, New York.'}, {'ForeName': 'Yiran', 'Initials': 'Y', 'LastName': 'Zhang', 'Affiliation': 'Clinical Trials Center, Cardiovascular Research Foundation, New York, New York.'}, {'ForeName': 'Thomas', 'Initials': 'T', 'LastName': 'McAndrew', 'Affiliation': 'Clinical Trials Center, Cardiovascular Research Foundation, New York, New York.'}, {'ForeName': 'Ori', 'Initials': 'O', 'LastName': 'Ben-Yehuda', 'Affiliation': 'Clinical Trials Center, Cardiovascular Research Foundation, New York, New York.'}, {'ForeName': 'Gary S', 'Initials': 'GS', 'LastName': 'Mintz', 'Affiliation': 'Clinical Trials Center, Cardiovascular Research Foundation, New York, New York.'}, {'ForeName': 'Gregg W', 'Initials': 'GW', 'LastName': 'Stone', 'Affiliation': 'Clinical Trials Center, Cardiovascular Research Foundation, New York, New York.'}]",Catheterization and cardiovascular interventions : official journal of the Society for Cardiac Angiography & Interventions,['10.1002/ccd.28096']
1550,28087851,Effect of Educational Intervention on the Fruit and Vegetables Consumption among the Students: Applying Theory of Planned Behavior.,"BACKGROUND
The importance of consuming fruits and vegetables (F&V) in prevention of chronic diseases is known. Childhood play an important role in formation of healthy eating habits. The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of education, with application of the theory of planned behavior, on improvement of F&V consumption.
METHODS
In this quasi-experimental study, 184 fourth, fifth, and sixth-grade students participated were enrolled from Jan 2013 to Jun 2014. The samples were selected from 6 schools in Chalderan County, West Azerbaijan, Iran through cluster random sampling method. Two out of 6 schools were randomly selected and each was employed in either experimental or control group. The data collection instruments included a researcher-made questionnaire and a 24-h F&V recall. Data were collected after verification of the reliability and validity of the questionnaire.
RESULTS
Before the intervention, no significant difference was observed between the intervention and control group regarding attitude, subjective norms, perceived behavioral control, behavioral intention and fruits and vegetables consumption (P>0.05). However, after the educational intervention, the mean scores of attitude, subjective norms, perceived behavioral control, behavioral intention variables and fruits and vegetables were significantly higher in the intervention group when compared to the control group(P<0.05).

1551,32412916,Binaural Beats Reduce Postoperative Morphine Consumption in Older adults After Total Knee Replacement Surgery.,"Context
A reduction in the use of opioids by older adult patients could reduce unpleasant side effects for them. During general anesthesia, binaural beat (BB) listening has been found to reduce intraoperative fentanyl consumption as well as postoperative pain scores and discharge time. Auditory BBs are a perceptual phenomenon occurring when tones of 2 slightly different frequencies are presented simultaneously and separately to each ear.
Objective
The study intended to evaluate the ability of BBs, as a nonpharmacological premedication, to reduce postoperative morphine consumption in older adults undergoing total knee replacement surgery and to modify the levels of anxiety and feelings of pain that patients experience.
Design
The research team designed a prospective, single-center, randomized controlled study.
Setting
The study was conducted in the Orthopedic Department of the Santa Maria Maddalena Hospital (Volterra [Pisa], Italy).
Participants
Forty older adults at the hospital who were undergoing total knee joint replacement with spinal anesthesia participated in the study.
Intervention
The study included 2 groups (n = 20 each), one receiving BBs stimulation with frequencies of 256 Hz in one ear and 260 Hz in the opposite ear producing a BB of 4 Hz (intervention group), and the other receiving acoustical stimulation at 256 Hz in both ears (control group). BBs, or acoustical stimulation, were administered before the surgical procedure. Both acoustical stimuli, generated with the Gnaural program, were delivered through stereo headphones connected to a laptop in the preoperative holding area.
Outcome Measures
The study measured postoperative, cumulative, self-administered morphine consumption, in mg, through a patient-controlled analgesia device. Feelings of anxiety were also assessed using the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory, and feelings of pain were measured every 8 h during the first postoperative day using a numerical rating scale.
Results
Patients who received the intervention, consumed almost half of the dosage of morphine during the first postoperative day when compared with the control group's consumption, 5.75 mg ± 5.25 vs 11.85 mg ± 7.71, respectively. The consumption did not correlate to anxiety measures. Regarding pain perception, no differences between the groups were captured.
Conclusions

We evaluated the acute effects of ED on autonomic heart rate (HR) control during recovery after a session of submaximal aerobic exercise. Method: The study was completed by submitting 29 healthy males between 18 and 30 years old to three conventions: (A) Maximum exercise test by the adapted Bruce protocol; (B) Placebo protocol (PP) - water intake 15 minutes prior to exercise, rest in dorsal decubitus for 15 minutes followed by 5 minutes of treadmill running at 1% inclination, initial speed of 5 km/h for 5 minutes 25 minutes with 60% of the velocity consistent to the maximum oxygen consumption (VO2max), and finally 60 minutes of recovery at rest in the supine position; (C) Experimental protocol (PE) - similar to PP previously, but with ED intake 15 minutes before physical exercise.

1553,32412917,Effect of Prescription Tongxin on Endothelial Progenitor Cells in Peripheral Blood.,"Context
Coronary heart disease (CHD) refers to a disease where coronary atherosclerosis induces stenosis or obstruction of the blood vessels. Endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) function to protect and repair the vascular endothelium, and their functional activity state reflects the ability of the body to repair vascular damage. In the peripheral blood of patients with CHD, the density of EPCs decreases, and the function of EPCs is low.
Objective
This study aimed to investigate the effects of a China Food and Drug Administration (CFDA)-approved prescription medicine, Tongxin, on the density and function of endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) in peripheral blood.
Design
In this study, a randomized, single blind, parallel controlled clinical trial was used. The single blind subjects were subjects.
Setting
The study took place in the Cardiology and Emergency Departments at Shanghai Municipal Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine in Shanghai, China.
Participants
Participants were 48 patients with coronary heart disease at the hospital.
Intervention
Participants were randomly divided into 2 groups (n = 24 each): a control group and an intervention group. Both groups received routine drug treatments, such as platelet inhibitors, nitrates, β-receptor blockers, statins, angiotensin-converting-enzyme (ACE) inhibitors, angiotensin II receptor antagonists (ARBs), and calcium blockers. The control group was treated with the Shexiang Baoxin Pill, while the intervention group was treated with prescription Tongxin. The course of treatment was 3 months for both groups.
Outcome Measures
Changes in the density and function of EPCs in the peripheral blood of the 2 groups were measured at baseline and postintervention, and the clinical efficacy of the 2 treatments was statistically analyzed.
Results
The density of EPCs was significantly higher in both groups after 3 months of treatment, compared to the densities at baseline (P < .05). The change in density between baseline and postintervention was significantly greater for the intervention group than for the control group (P < .05). For the control group, the proliferative vitality [optical density (OD)] value of the EPCs was significantly higher than that at baseline from the fourth day of treatment (P < .05). In the intervention group, the OD value was significantly higher than that at baseline from the first day of treatment (P < .05). Furthermore, the intervention group's cells began to enter the logarithmic growth phase of increase from the fifth day of treatment, and the group's increase as significantly higher than the control group's from the fifth to the seventh dayof treatment (P < .05 for all 3 days). Moreover, the total effective rate was higher in the intervention group than in the control group (P < .05).
Conclusions
Prescription Tongxin can stimulate the release of EPCs from the bone marrow to the peripheral blood of patients with CHD, can significantly increase the proliferation of EPCs in the peripheral blood, and can improve the clinical symptoms of patients. Its curative effect was greater than that of the control treatment.",2020,"Moreover, the total effective rate was higher in the intervention group than in the control group (P < .05).

1554,32412952,Trends in Costs of Care and Utilization for Medicaid Patients With Diabetes in Accountable Care Communities.,"BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES
Medicaid beneficiaries with diabetes have complex care needs. The Accountable Care Communities (ACC) Program is a practice-level intervention implemented by UnitedHealthcare to improve care for Medicaid beneficiaries. We examined changes in costs and utilization for Medicaid beneficiaries with diabetes assigned to ACC versus usual care practices.
RESEARCH DESIGN
Interrupted time series with concurrent control group analysis, at the person-month level. The ACC was implemented in 14 states, and we selected comparison non-ACC practices from those states to control for state-level variation in Medicaid program. We adjusted the models for age, sex, race/ethnicity, comorbidities, seasonality, and state-by-year fixed effects. We examined the difference between ACC and non-ACC practices in changes in the time trends of expenditures and hospital and emergency room utilization, for the 4 largest categories of Medicaid eligibility [Temporary Assistance to Needy Families, Supplemental Security Income (without Medicare), Expansion, Dual-Eligible].
SUBJECTS/MEASURES
Eligibility and claims data from Medicaid adults with diabetes from 14 states between 2010 and 2016, before and after ACC implementation.
RESULTS
Analyses included 1,200,460 person-months from 66,450 Medicaid patients with diabetes. ACC implementation was not associated with significant changes in outcome time trends, relative to comparators, for all Medicaid categories.
CONCLUSIONS
Medicaid patients assigned to ACC practices had no changes in cost or utilization over 3 years of follow-up, compared with patients assigned to non-ACC practices. The ACC program may not reduce costs or utilization for Medicaid patients with diabetes.",2020,"CONCLUSIONS

The increased effectiveness of resistance training on unstable vs. stable surfaces on selected measures of physical performance in young male soccer players. J Strength Cond Res XX(X): 000-000, 2020-To examine the effects of 10-week (2/wk) resistance training on stable vs. unstable surfaces on selected measures of physical performance in young male soccer players, national-level U19 players participated in this study. They were randomly allocated to an unstable resistance training group (uRT, n = 27) or a stable resistance training group (sRT, n = 28). Before and after the training, horizontal jumping with dominant (Hop D) and nondominant leg (Hop non-D), repeated sprint ability (RSA best time [RSAbest] and RSA mean time [RSAmean]), change-of-direction (COD) speed (Illinois COD test), and aerobic endurance (YoYo Intermittent Recovery Test Level 1 [YoYo IR1]) were assessed. To establish the effects of the interventions on the dependent variables, a 2 (group: uRT and sRT) × 2 (time: pre, post) analysis of variance with repeated measures on time was computed. A significant main effect of time was observed for Hop non-D, RSAbest, and RSAmean (p = 0.003-0.06, effect size [ES] = 0.06-0.15). Furthermore, significant group × time interactions were shown for RSAbest (p = 0.007, ES = 0.13) and RSAmean (p = 0.002, ES = 0.2).

1557,32412960,Omega-3 fatty acid therapy for cardiovascular disease: justified or not?,"PURPOSE OF REVIEW
To discuss the current evidence regarding the relationship between omega-3 fatty acid intake and atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) risk.
RECENT FINDINGS
Combined results from randomized controlled trials using low-dosage (≤1.8 g/day of ethyl esters) eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) or EPA + docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) suggest a small benefit for reducing coronary heart disease risk. The Reduction of Cardiovascular Events with EPA-Intervention Trial (REDUCE-IT) that administered 4 g/day icosapent ethyl (IPE) to individuals on statin at high or very high ASCVD risk with elevated triglycerides demonstrated a 25% relative risk reduction in the composite primary endpoint (cardiovascular death, nonfatal myocardial infarction, nonfatal stroke, coronary revascularization and unstable angina) for IPE vs. placebo, and a lower hazard for all prespecified individual endpoints other than total mortality. Several national organizations have recommended IPE for ASCVD risk reduction in populations aligning with REDUCE-IT; the Food and Drug Administration has approved IPE for ASCVD risk reduction. However, the Outcomes Study to Assess Statin Residual Risk Reduction with Epanova (EPA + DHA carboxylic acids) in High Cardiovascular Risk Patients with Hypertriglyceridemia was recently stopped for futility.

1558,32412986,Subarachnoid block and ultrasound-guided transversalis fascia plane block for caesarean section: A randomised placebo-controlled double-blind study.,"BACKGROUND
After caesarean section, maternal postoperative comfort is critical to allow the new mother to care for her baby. Insufficient pain relief during the postoperative period may delay maternal/infant bonding and, in addition, such pain has been linked to subsequent depression and chronic pain. Caesarean section is commonly performed with a Pfannenstiel incision, and a transversalis fascia plane (TFP) block provides postoperative analgesia in the T12 and L1 dermatomes.
OBJECTIVE
The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of the TFP block on postoperative opioid consumption and pain scores in patients undergoing caesarean section under spinal anaesthesia.
DESIGN
A prospective randomised controlled, double-blind study.
SETTINGS
Single-centre, academic hospital.
PARTICIPANTS
Sixty patients undergoing caesarean section.
INTERVENTIONS
The TFP group (n = 30) received an ultrasound-guided bilateral TFP block with 20 ml of 0.25% bupivacaine. The control group (n = 30) received 20 ml of saline bilaterally. Postoperative analgesia was given every 6 h with intravenous paracetamol 1 g and patient-controlled analgesia (PCA) with morphine.
MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES
Postoperative visual analogue pain scores, morphine consumption, rescue analgesia and opioid-related side effects were evaluated.
RESULTS
In the TFP group, the visual analogue pain scores were significantly lower at rest for 2 h after the operation (P = 0.011) and during active movement at 2, 4 and 8 h postoperatively (P = 0.014, <0.001 and 0.032, respectively). Morphine consumption in the first 24 h after surgery was significantly higher in the control group compared with the TFP group (38.5 ± 11.63 and 19.5 ± 8.33 mg, respectively; P < 0.001). The incidence of postoperative nausea and constipation were statistically higher in the control group than in the TFP group (P < 0.05). Patient satisfaction was significantly higher in the TFP group (P = 0.027).
CONCLUSION
A postoperative TFP block can reduce opioid consumption and relieve acute pain after a caesarean section under spinal anaesthesia.

1559,32413915,Wet- versus dry-suction techniques for endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration of solid lesions: a multicenter randomized controlled trial.,"BACKGROUND
The optimal sampling techniques for endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration (EUS-FNA) remain unclear and have not been standardized. The aim of this study was to compare the wet-suction and dry-suction techniques for sampling solid lesions in the pancreas, mediastinum, and abdomen.
METHODS
This was a multicenter, crossover, randomized controlled trial with randomized order of sampling techniques. The 296 consecutive patients underwent EUS-FNA with 22G needles and were randomized in a ratio of 1:1 into two separate groups that received the dry-suction and wet-suction techniques in a different order. The primary outcome was to compare the histological diagnostic accuracy of dry suction and wet suction for malignancy. The secondary outcomes were to compare the cytological diagnostic accuracy and specimen quality.
RESULTS
Among the 269 patients with pancreatic (n = 161) and non-pancreatic (n = 108) lesions analyzed, the wet-suction technique had a significantly better histological diagnostic accuracy (84.9 % [95 % confidence interval (CI) 79.9 % - 89.0 %] vs. 73.2 % [95 %CI 67.1 % - 78.7 %]; P = 0.001), higher specimen adequacy (94.8 % vs. 78.8 %; P < 0.001), and less blood contamination ( P < 0.001) than the dry-suction technique. In addition, sampling non-pancreatic lesions with two passes of wet suction provided a histological diagnostic accuracy of 91.6 %.
CONCLUSIONS
The wet-suction technique in EUS-FNA generates better histological diagnostic accuracy and specimen quality than the dry-suction technique. Furthermore, sampling non-pancreatic lesions with two passes of EUS-FNA with wet suction may provide a definitive histological diagnosis when rapid on-site evaluation is not routinely available.",2020,The wet-suction technique in EUS-FNA generates better histological diagnostic accuracy and specimen quality than the dry-suction technique.,"['296 consecutive patients underwent EUS-FNA with 22G needles', '269 patients with pancreatic (n\u200a=\u200a161) and non-pancreatic (n\u200a=\u200a108) lesions']","['endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration', 'endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration (EUS-FNA', 'dry-suction techniques', 'dry-suction and wet-suction techniques', 'wet-suction and dry-suction techniques']","['blood contamination', 'histological diagnostic accuracy and specimen quality', 'histological diagnostic accuracy of dry suction and wet suction for malignancy', 'higher specimen adequacy', 'histological diagnostic accuracy', 'cytological diagnostic accuracy and specimen quality']","[{'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patient'}, {'cui': 'C1880510', 'cui_str': 'EUS-FNA'}, {'cui': 'C0450404', 'cui_str': '22G'}, {'cui': 'C0007431', 'cui_str': 'Insertion of catheter into artery'}, {'cui': 'C0030274', 'cui_str': 'Pancreatic structure'}, {'cui': 'C4517530', 'cui_str': '108'}, {'cui': 'C0221198', 'cui_str': 'Lesion'}]","[{'cui': 'C1880510', 'cui_str': 'EUS-FNA'}, {'cui': 'C0011682', 'cui_str': 'Desiccation -

1560,32413002,Baseline and Clinical Factors Associated with Response to Amblyopia Treatment in a Randomized Clinical Trial.,"SIGNIFICANCE
We sought to identify baseline and clinical factors that were predictive of the response to amblyopia treatment. We report that binocular amblyopia treatment may be especially effective for moderate amblyopia in orthotropic children.
PURPOSE
We previously reported results from the primary cohort (n = 28) enrolled in a randomized clinical trial (NCT02365090), which found that binocular amblyopia treatment was more effective than patching. Enrollment of an additional 20 children was pre-planned to provide the opportunity to examine factors that may be predictive of response to amblyopia treatment.
METHODS
Forty-eight children (4 to 10 years old) were enrolled, with 24 randomized to contrast-rebalanced binocular game treatment (1 hour a day, 5 days a week) and 24 to patching treatment (2 hours a day, 7 days a week). The primary outcome was change in amblyopic eye best-corrected visual acuity at the 2-week visit. Baseline factors examined were age at enrollment, visual acuity, stereoacuity, and suppression. Clinical factors were etiology, age at diagnosis, prior treatment, and ocular alignment.
RESULTS
At 2 weeks, visual acuity improvement was significantly greater with the binocular game than patching. Children with moderate amblyopia and orthotropia had more visual acuity improvement with binocular game play than did those with severe amblyopia. In addition, children who spent more time playing the binocular game had more improvement. We were not able to confidently identify any baseline or clinical factors that were associated with response to patching treatment.

1562,32413431,Anchor versus Suture for Attachment of Vaginal Mesh in Robotic-Assisted Sacrocolpopexy: A Randomized Clinical Trial.,"BACKGROUND
Vaginal mesh attachment can be one of the most time intensive components of minimally invasive sacrocolpopexy.
OBJECTIVE
To assess the impact on the duration of surgery of using absorbable anchors compared to interrupted sutures for vaginal mesh attachment in robotic-assisted sacrocolpopexy.
STUDY DESIGN
This is a single-masked, randomized clinical trial at 2 clinical sites in women with pelvic organ prolapse undergoing robotic-assisted sacrocolpopexy. Participants were randomized to either interrupted delayed-absorbable anchors or sutures for the vaginal mesh attachment portion of the case. Participants completed validated questionnaires at baseline, 6 weeks, 6 months, and 12 months after surgery. A certified examiner masked to the treatment arm performed a clinical examination with assessment of POPQ, mesh exposure, and overall appearance of vaginal walls using a 10-cm visual analog scale at each follow-up visit. The primary outcome was the vaginal mesh attachment time. Categorical variables were compared using chi-square or Fischer's Exact test, whereas continuous variables were compared using Student's t test or Mann-Whitney U test as appropriate. An intention-to-treat analysis was performed.
RESULTS
Fifty-three participants were randomized, 26 to mesh attachment with anchor, 27 to mesh attachment with suture, and 81% (21/26) and 93% (25/27) had 12-month follow up respectively. There were no significant differences between groups in age (p=0.12), BMI (p=0.23), stage of prolapse (p=0.97), or other preoperative factors. Mesh attachment interval time was faster in the anchor compared to suturing arm (12.2±7.8 vs. 21.2± 5.2 min, p<0.001), while sacrocolpopexy times (107.6± 33.2 vs 109.8± 21.2, p=0.774) were not different. VAS for surgeon ease of placement (p=0.16), appearance of mesh attachment (p=0.07), and global satisfaction with use of attachment type (p=0.65) were similar between the arms. There was no difference in perioperative adverse events rates between arms and by 12 months follow-up there were no sacrocolpopexy mesh, anchor, or suture exposures. There was no difference in outcomes at 12 months including composite failure (10% vs 12%, p=0.79), patient global impression of improvement (1.06 vs. 1.19, p=0.27), or patient pelvic pain (9.81 vs. 9.67, p=0.56).
CONCLUSIONS
In patients undergoing robotic-assisted sacrocolpopexy the anchor vaginal mesh attachment technique required significantly less time than suturing. There was no difference between techniques in complications, failure, surgeon or patient-reported outcomes through 12 months of follow-up. Mesh attachment during sacrocolpopexy can be performed in less time using the anchor technique, providing surgeons another surgical technique for this procedure.",2020,"There was no difference between techniques in complications, failure, surgeon or patient-reported outcomes through 12 months of follow-up.","['patients undergoing', 'women with pelvic organ prolapse undergoing robotic-assisted sacrocolpopexy', 'Fifty-three participants']","['robotic-assisted sacrocolpopexy the anchor vaginal mesh attachment technique', 'VAS', 'Anchor versus Suture for Attachment of Vaginal Mesh in Robotic-Assisted Sacrocolpopexy', 'interrupted delayed-absorbable anchors or sutures', 'absorbable anchors compared to interrupted sutures']","['Mesh attachment interval time', 'patient global impression of improvement', 'patient pelvic pain', 'composite failure', 'vaginal mesh attachment time', 'BMI (p=0.23), stage of prolapse', 'perioperative adverse events rates', 'global satisfaction', 'appearance of mesh attachment']","[{'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patient'}, {'cui': 'C0043210', 'cui_str': 'Woman'}, {'cui': 'C0877015', 'cui_str': 'Urogenital prolapse'}, {'cui': 'C0035785', 'cui_str': 'Robotics'}, {'cui': 'C0018896', 'cui_str': 'Helping Behavior'}, {'cui': 'C0554325', 'cui_str': 'Sacrocolpopexy'}]","[{'cui': 'C0035785', 'cui_str': 'Robotics'}, {'cui': 'C0018896', 'cui_str': 'Helping Behavior'}, {'cui': 'C0554325', 'cui_str': 'Sacrocolpopexy'}, {'cui': 'C1293132', 'cui_str': 'Anchoring'}, {'cui': 'C0042232', 'cui_str': 'Vaginal structure'}, {'cui': 'C0181805', 'cui_str': 'Mesh'}, {'cui': 'C0185023', 'cui_str': 'Fixation - action'}, {'cui': 'C0025664', 'cui_str': 'methods'}, {'cui': 'C0042815', 'cui_str': 'Visual analog pain scale'}, {'cui': 'C0009068', 'cui_str': 'Closure by suture'}, {'cui': 'C0443239', 'cui_str': 'Interrupted'}]","[{'cui': 'C0181805', 'cui_str': 'Mesh'}, {'cui': 'C0185023', 'cui_str': 'Fixation - action'}, {'cui': 'C1272706', 'cui_str': 'Interval'}, {'cui': 'C0040223', 'cui_str': 'Time'}, {'cui': 'C4706333', 'cui_str': 'Patient Global Impression of Improvement'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patient'}, {'cui': 'C0030794', 'cui_str': 'Pain in pelvis'}, {'cui': 'C0205199', 'cui_str': 'Composite'}, {'cui': 'C0231174', 'cui_str': 'Failure'}, {'cui': 'C0042232', 'cui_str': 'Vaginal structure'}, {'cui': 'C0005893', 'cui_str': 'Body mass index'}, {'cui': 'C0205390', 'cui_str': 'Phase'}, {'cui': 'C0033377', 'cui_str': 'Prolapse'}, {'cui': 'C0877248', 'cui_str': 'Adverse event'}, {'cui': 'C0205246', 'cui_str': 'Generalized'}, {'cui': 'C0242428', 'cui_str': 'Satisfaction'}, {'cui': 'C0700364', 'cui_str': 'Appearance'}]",53.0,0.29178,"There was no difference between techniques in complications, failure, surgeon or patient-reported outcomes through 12 months of follow-up.","[{'ForeName': 'Alexander A', 'Initials': 'AA', 'LastName': 'Berger', 'Affiliation': 'Division of Female Pelvic Medicine and Reconstructive Surgery, Department of OB/GYN, Kaiser Permanente-San Diego; Division of Female Pelvic Medicine and Reconstructive Surgery, Department of Obstetrics, Gynecology and Reproductive Science, University of California San Diego.

To our knowledge, no study has explored this question in a sample with a placebo control, two therapies, and their combination nor with adolescents. We used data from the Treatment of Adolescent Depression Study (N = 439), in which adolescent were randomized to placebo (PBO), cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), antidepressants medications (MEDs), or their combination (COMB). We explore the interaction between depression severity, chronicity, and treatments (vs. placebo) in predicting outcomes. There was interaction between severity and chronicity when comparing COMB and CBT with PBO, but not MEDs. In non-chronic depression, the effects of CBT were inversely related to severity to the point that CBT appeared iatrogenic with more severe depression. In chronic depression, the effects of CBT did not vary by severity, but the relative effects of COMB grew, being smallest in milder, more dythimic-like depression, and largest in chronic-severe depression. These findings support calls to classify depression by severity and chronicity as well efforts to risk stratify patients to different intensity of care according to these variables.",2020,"In non-chronic depression, the effects of CBT were inversely related to severity to the point that CBT appeared iatrogenic with more severe depression.",['Adolescent Depression Study (N\xa0=\xa0439'],"['CBT', 'placebo (PBO), cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), antidepressants medications (MEDs), or their combination (COMB', 'placebo']",[],"[{'cui': 'C0205653', 'cui_str': 'Adolescent'}, {'cui': 'C0011570', 'cui_str': 'Depression'}, {'cui': 'C0008972', 'cui_str': 'Clinical Study'}]","[{'cui': 'C0009244', 'cui_str': 'Cognitive therapy'}, {'cui': 'C0032042', 'cui_str': 'Sham Treatment'}, {'cui': 'C0003289', 'cui_str': 'Antidepressant'}, {'cui': 'C0013227', 'cui_str': 'Pharmaceutical / biologic product'}]",[],,0.0183832,"In non-chronic depression, the effects of CBT were inversely related to severity to the point that CBT appeared iatrogenic with more severe depression.","[{'ForeName': 'Lorenzo', 'Initials': 'L', 'LastName': 'Lorenzo-Luaces', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Psychological and Brain Sciences, Indiana University, Bloomington, IN, USA.

1564,31570123,An online mindfulness-based intervention for undergraduate pharmacy students: Results of a mixed-methods feasibility study.,"INTRODUCTION
Stress negatively impacts pharmacy students' physical and mental health. Mindfulness has been shown to improve student wellbeing. The purpose of this study was to assess the feasibility and acceptability of an online mindfulness-based intervention and determine its effect on student wellbeing.
METHODS
A quasi-randomised controlled trial was conducted at four pharmacy schools in Ireland. The intervention group took part in a four-week online mindfulness course. The control group received usual education, with delayed access to the course. Participants completed the Perceived Stress Scale, the General Health Questionnaire, the Jefferson Scale of Empathy - Health Profession Student version, the Maslach Burnout Inventory Student Survey (MBI-SS), and the Five Facet Mindfulness Questionnaire at baseline and post-intervention. Answers provided to questions about the experience of participating in the course were analysed using thematic analysis.
RESULTS
Of the 52 participants, no significant differences were found between the intervention and control groups at baseline. Post-intervention, an increase in professional efficacy, as measured by the MBI-SS, was found in the intervention group (p = 0.004). There was also an increase in observing scores (p = 0.003). Males showed greater improvements in stress (p = 0.04) and non-judgement (p = 0.03) levels. Only females demonstrated improvement in professional efficacy (p = 0.002). Participants self-reported stress reduction and increased awareness of emotions.
CONCLUSION
This study provides insights into the feasibility and acceptability of an online mindfulness course for pharmacy students. Findings will inform the future design and implementation of larger studies.",2019,Males showed greater improvements in stress (p = 0.04) and non-judgement (p = 0.03) levels.,"['pharmacy students', 'undergraduate pharmacy students', 'A quasi-randomised controlled trial was conducted at four pharmacy schools in Ireland', '52 participants']","['online mindfulness-based intervention', 'usual education']","['professional efficacy', 'Perceived Stress Scale, the General Health Questionnaire, the Jefferson Scale of Empathy - Health Profession Student version, the Maslach Burnout Inventory Student Survey (MBI-SS), and the Five Facet Mindfulness Questionnaire', 'stress', 'awareness of emotions', 'observing scores', 'feasibility and acceptability']","[{'cui': 'C0038497', 'cui_str': 'Pharmacy Student'}, {'cui': 'C2587213', 'cui_str': 'Controlled (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0004927', 'cui_str': 'Behavior'}, {'cui': 'C0036381', 'cui_str': 'Schools, Pharmacy'}, {'cui': 'C0022067', 'cui_str': 'Ireland, Republic of'}]","[{'cui': 'C3542996', 'cui_str': 'Mindfulness'}, {'cui': 'C0178499', 'cui_str': 'Base'}, {'cui': 'C0013621', 'cui_str': 'Education'}]","[{'cui': 'C0582653', 'cui_str': 'Perceived stress scale (assessment scale)'}, {'cui': 'C0451182', 'cui_str': 'General health questionnaire (assessment scale)'}, {'cui': 'C0222045'}, {'cui': 'C0013989', 'cui_str': 'Empathy'}, {'cui': 'C1704312', 'cui_str': 'Healthcare professional (occupation)'}, {'cui': 'C0038492', 'cui_str': 'Student (occupation)'}, {'cui': 'C2607870', 'cui_str': 'Version (morphologic abnormality)'}, {'cui': 'C0476644', 'cui_str': 'Physical AND emotional exhaustion state (disorder)'}, {'cui': 'C0021941', 'cui_str': 'Inventories'}, {'cui': 'C0038951', 'cui_str': 'Surveys'}, {'cui': 'C0222679', 'cui_str': 'Structure of articular surface of bone'}, {'cui': 'C3542996', 'cui_str': 'Mindfulness'}, {'cui': 'C0034394', 'cui_str': 'Questionnaires'}, {'cui': 'C0038435', 'cui_str': 'Stress - value'}, {'cui': 'C0004448', 'cui_str': 'Situational Awareness'}, {'cui': 'C0013987', 'cui_str': 'Emotions'}, {'cui': 'C3875135', 'cui_str': 'Observes (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0449820', 'cui_str': 'Scores (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C3645535', 'cui_str': 'Acceptability'}]",52.0,0.0251241,Males showed greater improvements in stress (p = 0.04) and non-judgement (p = 0.03) levels.,"[{'ForeName': 'Michelle', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': ""O'Driscoll"", 'Affiliation': 'Pharmaceutical Care Research Group, School of Pharmacy, University College Cork, Ireland.

1565,31859593,Association of cognitive biases with human papillomavirus vaccine hesitancy: a cross-sectional study.,"Given the link between vaccine hesitancy and vaccine-preventable disease outbreaks, it is critical to examine the cognitive processes that contribute to the development of vaccine hesitancy, especially among parents of adolescents. We conducted a secondary analysis of baseline data from a two-phase randomized trial on human papillomavirus to investigate how vaccine hesitancy and intent to vaccinate are associated with six decision-making factors: base rate neglect, conjunction fallacy, sunk cost bias, present bias, risk aversion, and information avoidance. We recruited 1,413 adults residing in the United States with at least one daughter aged 9-17 years old through an online survey on Amazon Mechanical Turk. Vaccine hesitancy, intent to vaccinate, and susceptibility to cognitive biases was measured through a series of brief questionnaires. 1,400 participants were in the final analyzed sample. Most participants were white (74.1%), female (71.6%), married (75.3%), and had a college or graduate/professional education (88.8%). Conjunction fallacy, sunk cost bias, information avoidance, and present bias may be associated with vaccine hesitancy. Intent to vaccinate may be associated with information avoidance.

1566,32412991,An Exploration of Health Behaviors in a Mind-Body Resilience Intervention for Parents of Children with Developmental Disabilities.,"OBJECTIVE
Parents of children with special needs such as learning and attentional disabilities (LADs) and autism spectrum disorder (ASD) are at high risk for stress-related disorders. The demands of parenting may compete with time for self-care behaviors such as physical activity, healthy eating, and adequate sleep. The objective was to describe health behaviors among this understudied population and assess the changes after a resilience intervention.
METHODS
This was a secondary data analysis of a randomized controlled pilot virtual mind-body resilience intervention (Stress Management and Resiliency Training: A Relaxation Response Resiliency Program) trial for parents of children with LADs (n = 52) and ASD (n = 47). Parents completed self-report questionnaires about their weekly physical activity, eating behaviors, sleep duration, and fatigue before and after the 8-week intervention. Descriptive statistics and pre-post intervention effect sizes (Cohen's d) were calculated.
RESULTS
Both parent groups reported suboptimal levels of health behaviors at baseline, but ASD parents reported lower health behaviors than LAD parents. LAD parents improved more on physical activity, with a higher percentage meeting recommendations at postintervention follow-up (d = 0.71) than ASD parents (d = 0.01). Eating behaviors showed small effect size improvements for both groups. Although sleep duration improved only with small or medium effect sizes for both groups, ASD parents rated their fatigue lower after the intervention (d = 0.81).
CONCLUSION
Parents of children with special needs who participated in a virtual resilience intervention demonstrated suboptimal health behaviors.

1567,32413530,Cranberry capsules are not superior to placebo capsules in managing acute non-haemorrhagic radiation cystitis in prostate cancer patients: a phase III double blinded randomised placebo controlled clinical trial.,"PURPOSE
Acute radiation cystitis affects the quality of life of many prostate cancer patients. A previous pilot study suggested that cranberry capsules may decrease some of the symptoms of acute radiation cystitis. Here we further test their effectiveness in a multicentre double blinded placebo-controlled clinical trial.
MATERIAL AND METHODS
A total of 108 prostate cancer patients were recruited at three New Zealand hospitals between September 2016 and January 2019. Out of this cohort, 101 patients provided datasets for analysis (51 men on cranberry capsules and 50 men on beetroot-containing placebo capsules). Patients took two capsules each morning during RT and for 2 weeks after completion of RT. Three measures were used to assess cystitis severity: modified RTOG, O'Leary interstitial cystitis scale and a sensitive novel radiation induced cystitis assessment scale (RICAS). Cystitis severity was scored at baseline and weekly thereafter during RT and for two weeks after completion of RT. Radiation protocols were stratified to conventional fractionation or hypo-fractionated radiation therapy (CHHiP) to the prostate or radiation to the prostate bed.
RESULTS
Cranberry capsules performed significantly worse than placebo capsules with respect to day time frequency and bladder control, using the more sensitive RICAS scale. No significant difference in cystitis severity was seen between patients receiving hypofractionation and those receiving conventional fractionation to the prostate gland.
CONCLUSION
Cranberry capsules were not superior to beetroot-containing placebo capsules in managing radiation cystitis in our prostate patient cohort. RICAS may be a useful tool for measuring radiation cystitis in future studies.",2020,"No significant difference in cystitis severity was seen between patients receiving hypofractionation and those receiving conventional fractionation to the prostate gland.

1568,31436705,A Prospective Study on Child Morbidity and Gut Microbiota in Rural Malawi.,"OBJECTIVES
The determinants of gut microbiota composition and its effects on common childhood illnesses are only partly understood, especially in low-income settings. The aim of the present study was to investigate whether morbidity predicts gut microbiota composition in Malawian children and whether microbiota predicts subsequent morbidity. We tested the hypothesis that common infectious disease symptoms would be predictive of lower microbiota maturity and diversity.
METHODS
We used data from 631 participants in a randomized-controlled nutrition intervention trial, in which a small-quantity lipid-based nutrient supplement was provided to pregnant and lactating mothers and their children at 6 to 18 months of age. Fecal samples were collected from the children at 6, 12, 18, and 30 months of age and analyzed using 16S rRNA sequencing. Microbiota variables consisted of measures of microbiota diversity (Shannon Index), microbiota maturity (microbiota-for-age z score), and the relative abundances of taxa. Morbidity variables included gastrointestinal and respiratory symptoms and fever.
RESULTS
Diarrhea and respiratory symptoms from 11 to 12 months were predictive of lower microbiota-for-age z score and higher Shannon Index, respectively (P = 0.035 and P = 0.023). Morbidity preceding sample collection was predictive of the relative abundances of several bacterial taxa at all time points. Higher microbiota maturity and diversity at 6 months were predictive of a lower incidence rate of fever in the subsequent 6 months (P = 0.007 and P = 0.031).
CONCLUSIONS
Our findings generally do not support the hypothesis that morbidity prevalence predicts a subsequent decrease in gut microbiota maturity or diversity in rural Malawian children. Certain morbidity symptoms may be predictive of microbiota maturity and diversity and relative abundances of several bacterial taxa. Furthermore, microbiota diversity and maturity may be associated with the subsequent incidence of fever.",2019,Higher microbiota maturity and diversity at 6 months were predictive of a lower incidence rate of fever in the subsequent 6 months (,"['Child Morbidity and Gut Microbiota in Rural Malawi', 'pregnant and lactating mothers and their children at 6 to 18 months of age', 'Malawian children', 'rural Malawian children', '631 participants']",['small-quantity lipid-based nutrient supplement'],"['gastrointestinal and respiratory symptoms and fever', 'microbiota diversity (Shannon Index), microbiota maturity (microbiota-for-age z score), and the relative abundances of taxa', 'incidence rate of fever', 'Diarrhea and respiratory symptoms', 'gut microbiota maturity or diversity']","[{'cui': 'C0008059', 'cui_str': 'Child'}, {'cui': 'C0026538', 'cui_str': 'Morbidity'}, {'cui': 'C4018878', 'cui_str': 'Gastrointestinal Microbial Community'}, {'cui': 'C0024548', 'cui_str': 'Republic of Malawi'}, {'cui': 'C0549206', 'cui_str': 'Pregnancy not delivered'}, {'cui': 'C0202115', 'cui_str': 'Lactic acid measurement (procedure)'}, {'cui': 'C0026591', 'cui_str': 'Mothers'}, {'cui': 'C0439231', 'cui_str': 'month (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0001792', 'cui_str': 'Elderly'}]","[{'cui': 'C0547044', 'cui_str': 'Lesser (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C1265611', 'cui_str': 'Quantity finding'}, {'cui': 'C0023779', 'cui_str': 'Lipids'}, {'cui': 'C0178499', 'cui_str': 'Base'}, {'cui': 'C0678695', 'cui_str': 'Nutrients'}]","[{'cui': 'C0037090', 'cui_str': 'Signs and Symptoms, Respiratory'}, {'cui': 'C0015967', 'cui_str': 'Hyperthermia'}, {'cui': 'C3887843', 'cui_str': 'Microbial Community'}, {'cui': 'C0600653', 'cui_str': 'Indexes'}, {'cui': 'C0449989', 'cui_str': 'Maturity (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0001792', 'cui_str': 'Elderly'}, {'cui': 'C0871421', 'cui_str': 'Z-score'}, {'cui': 'C0205345', 'cui_str': 'Relative (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0220856', 'cui_str': 'incidence'}, {'cui': 'C0011991', 'cui_str': 'Diarrhea'}, {'cui': 'C4018878', 'cui_str': 'Gastrointestinal Microbial Community'}]",631.0,0.0869198,Higher microbiota maturity and diversity at 6 months were predictive of a lower incidence rate of fever in the subsequent 6 months (,"[{'ForeName': 'Emma', 'Initials': 'E', 'LastName': 'Kortekangas', 'Affiliation': 'Faculty of Medicine and Health Technology, Center for Child Health Research, Tampere University, Tampere, Finland.'}, {'ForeName': 'Rebecca', 'Initials': 'R', 'LastName': 'Young', 'Affiliation': 'Program in International and Community Nutrition, University of California, Davis, CA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Yin B', 'Initials': 'YB', 'LastName': 'Cheung', 'Affiliation': 'Program in Health Services and Systems Research and Centre for Quantitative Medicine, Duke-NUS Medical School, Singapore, Singapore.'}, {'ForeName': 'Yue-Mei', 'Initials': 'YM', 'LastName': 'Fan', 'Affiliation': 'Faculty of Medicine and Health Technology, Center for Child Health Research, Tampere University, Tampere, Finland.'}, {'ForeName': 'Josh M', 'Initials': 'JM', 'LastName': 'Jorgensen', 'Affiliation': 'Program in International and Community Nutrition, University of California, Davis, CA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Arox W', 'Initials': 'AW', 'LastName': ""Kamng'ona"", 'Affiliation': 'Program in International and Community Nutrition, University of California, Davis, CA.'}, {'ForeName': 'David', 'Initials': 'D', 'LastName': 'Chaima', 'Affiliation': 'School of Public Health and Family Medicine, University of Malawi College of Medicine, Blantyre, Malawi.'}, {'ForeName': 'Ulla', 'Initials': 'U', 'LastName': 'Ashorn', 'Affiliation': 'Faculty of Medicine and Health Technology, Center for Child Health Research, Tampere University, Tampere, Finland.'}, {'ForeName': 'Kathryn G', 'Initials': 'KG', 'LastName': 'Dewey', 'Affiliation': 'Program in International and Community Nutrition, University of California, Davis, CA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Kenneth', 'Initials': 'K', 'LastName': 'Maleta', 'Affiliation': 'School of Public Health and Family Medicine, University of Malawi College of Medicine, Blantyre, Malawi.'}, {'ForeName': 'Per', 'Initials': 'P', 'LastName': 'Ashorn', 'Affiliation': 'Faculty of Medicine and Health Technology, Center for Child Health Research, Tampere University, Tampere, Finland.'}]",Journal of pediatric gastroenterology and nutrition,['10.1097/MPG.0000000000002435']
1569,27840340,The Impact of Aerobic Exercise on Quality of Life in Women with Breast Cancer: A Randomized Controlled Trial.,"BACKGROUND
The women with breast cancer experience high rates of morbidity due to different treatments. The objective of this study was to evaluate the role of aerobic exercise in the quality of life (QoL) among women suffering from breast cancer in Hamadan, western Iran.
METHODS
Participants who had consummated the eligibility criteria were randomly assigned in exercise group (n=30) and control group (n=30). Written informed consent was obtained from all participants. The mean age was 42.70 ±9.6 and 43.50 ±8.60 yr old in exercise and control groups, respectively. The quality of life was assessed by two widely used standard questionnaires (EORTC QLQ-C30 and EORTC QLQ-BR23). The exercise group received supervised exercise 2 days per week for 10 weeks. Through two stages (before and after intervention) these groups were evaluated. Analyzing the data was performed by SPSS/20.0, using t-test, chi-squared and ANCOVA. P<0.05 was regarded as significant level.
RESULTS
The global health status QoL, based on EORTC QLQ-C30, developed significantly in the exercise group (48.76±24.96 vs. 81.79±16.34) in comparison with the controls (47.75 ±15.73 vs. 52.88 ±14.51) (P<0.001). The exercise intervention was associated with substantial development in total score of functions and symptoms of QoL using EORTC QLQ-BR23 (P<0.001).

1570,32413174,Conservative vs Surgical Treatment of Impacted Femoral Neck Fracture in Patients 75 Years and Older.,"OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the safety and effectiveness of conservative treatment (CST), internal fixation (IF), and hemiarthroplasty (HA) in treating patients older than 75 years with impacted femoral neck fracture (IFNF).
DESIGN
A randomized clinical trial to compare clinical outcomes of CST, IF, and HA in IFNF patients older than 75 years with a 1:1:1 ratio.
SETTING
Nanjing First Hospital, Nanjing Medical University, Nanjing, China.
PARTICIPANTS
A total of 154 patients with IFNF aged between 75 and 97 years.
INTERVENTION
Patients with IFNF were allocated to CST, IF, and HA. They all received a 36-month follow-up.
MEASUREMENTS
All patients were evaluated by Harris hip score (HHS) (primary outcome) for hip function, European Quality of Life-5 Dimensions (EQ-5D) index scores for health-related quality of life, and visual analogue scale score for hip pain. Operation duration, blood loss, mortality, union rate, complications, and reoperation were also recorded. Assessors were blind to the type of treatment.
RESULTS
The baseline parameters of the three groups were similar. IF group had much lower blood loss than HA group (P < .05), while no significant difference in operative duration was found between the two groups (P > .05). HHS in HA group was significantly higher at 1, 3, and 6 months (P < .05), but no significant difference in HHS was found between CST and IF groups at any of the time points during the overall follow-up (P > .05). EQ-5D index score was higher in HA group at each follow-up within 1 year (P < .05), but the difference was not significant at 2- and 3-year follow-up (P > .05). There was no significant difference in mortality among the three groups at each follow-up point (P > .05). The nonunion rate was 11.76% (6/51) in CST group and 9.80% (5/51) in IF group and showed no significant difference (P > .05).
CONCLUSION

1571,32413508,Antimicrobial Photodynamic Therapy with Diode laser and Methylene blue as an adjunct to scaling and root planning: A clinical trial.,"INTRODUCTION
Chronic periodontitis, the most common periodontal disease, is the destruction of tooth supporting structures and alveolar bone which may result in teeth exfoliation. Conventionally, the treatment aims at decreasing bacterial load by mechanical debridement and systemic or local delivery of antibiotics. Antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (aPDT) is a safe alternative adjunct therapy for elimination of pathogenic bacteria in periodontal pocket. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of aPDT with 660 nm diode laser and methylene blue as an adjunct to SRP on clinical periodontal parameters.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
In this clinical trial, we assessed aPDT as an adjunct to scaling and root planning (SRP) in chronic periodontitis treatment. A total of 50 subjected were enrolled. The case group received SRP and aPDT with methylene blue solution as photosensitizer and diode laser (wavelength=660 nm, power = 150 mW) irradiation. The control group received only SRP. The effect on clinical parameters, namely Plaque index (PI), Gingival index (GI), and probing depth (PD) was recorded at baseline and 6 weeks, 3 months and 6 months.
RESULTS
There were no significant differences between participants for clinical parameters at baseline. PI, GI and PD significantly improved compared to baseline (P < 0.05).
CONCLUSION
It can be concluded that aPDT can be considered a safe and efficient measure in addition to SRP because it can improve clinical outcomes with no adverse effects.",2020,Antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (aPDT) is a safe alternative adjunct therapy for elimination of pathogenic bacteria in periodontal pocket.,"['A total of 50 subjected were enrolled', 'chronic periodontitis treatment']","['SRP', 'aPDT with 660\u2009nm diode laser and methylene blue', 'SRP and aPDT with methylene blue solution as photosensitizer and diode laser (wavelength=660\u2009nm, power\u2009=\u2009150\u2009mW) irradiation', 'aPDT', 'Antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (aPDT', 'Antimicrobial Photodynamic Therapy with Diode laser and Methylene blue', 'scaling and root planning (SRP']","['clinical parameters, namely Plaque index (PI), Gingival index (GI), and probing depth (PD', 'PI, GI and PD']","[{'cui': 'C0439810', 'cui_str': 'Total'}, {'cui': 'C0266929', 'cui_str': 'Chronic periodontitis'}, {'cui': 'C0039798', 'cui_str': 'therapy'}]","[{'cui': 'C0175659', 'cui_str': 'Scale'}, {'cui': 'C0040452', 'cui_str': 'Tooth root structure'}, {'cui': 'C0032074', 'cui_str': 'Cognitive function: planning'}, {'cui': 'C0003232', 'cui_str': 'Antibiotic'}, {'cui': 'C0031740', 'cui_str': 'Photochemotherapy'}, {'cui': 'C4517845', 'cui_str': '660'}, {'cui': 'C0392254', 'cui_str': 'Semiconductor laser device'}, {'cui': 'C0025746', 'cui_str': 'Methylene blue'}, {'cui': 'C0037633', 'cui_str': 'Solution'}, {'cui': 'C0162713', 'cui_str': 'Photosensitizing agent'}, {'cui': 'C4321486', 'cui_str': '150'}, {'cui': 'C0851346', 'cui_str': 'Radiation'}]","[{'cui': 'C0205210', 'cui_str': 'Clinical'}, {'cui': 'C0449381', 'cui_str': 'Observation parameter'}, {'cui': 'C0011390', 'cui_str': 'Dental Plaque Indices'}, {'cui': 'C0017569', 'cui_str': 'Gingival Indexes'}, {'cui': 'C0182400', 'cui_str': 'Probe'}, {'cui': 'C0205125', 'cui_str': 'Deep'}]",50.0,0.0478309,Antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (aPDT) is a safe alternative adjunct therapy for elimination of pathogenic bacteria in periodontal pocket.,"[{'ForeName': 'Nahid', 'Initials': 'N', 'LastName': 'Derikvand', 'Affiliation': 'Department of periodontics faculty of dentisty, Borujerd Branch, Islamic Azad University, Borujerd, Iran.'}, {'ForeName': 'Seyedeh Sara', 'Initials': 'SS', 'LastName': 'Ghasemi', 'Affiliation': 'Dentist, Hygiene Department of Lorestan University of Medical Sciences, Khorramabad, Iran.'}, {'ForeName': 'Hannaneh', 'Initials': 'H', 'LastName': 'Safiaghdam', 'Affiliation': ""Students' research committee, Dental school, Shahid Beheshti University of Medical Sciences, Tehran, Iran.""}, {'ForeName': 'Hassan', 'Initials': 'H', 'LastName': 'Piriaei', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Mathematics, Borujerd Branch, Islamic Azad University, Borujerd, Iran.'}, {'ForeName': 'Nasim', 'Initials': 'N', 'LastName': 'Chiniforush', 'Affiliation': 'Dental Implant Research Center, Dentistry Research Institute, Tehran University of Medical Sciences, Tehran, Iran.

1572,32413581,Trauma-related cognitions predict treatment response in smokers with PTSD: Evidence from cross-lagged panel analyses.,"OBJECTIVE
Compared to smokers without posttraumatic stress disorders (PTSD), smokers with PTSD smoke more heavily and are less successful in quitting smoking. However, limited research has examined the cognitive pathways underlying this heightened comorbidity. The current study is the first to simultaneously model the cross-sectional and lagged relationships between trauma-related cognitions and cigarette smoking, as well as between trauma-related cognitions and PTSD severity, in smokers with comorbid PTSD receiving treatment.
METHOD
Participants (n = 142) were seeking treatment for smoking cessation and PTSD as part of a randomized controlled trial of varenicline and smoking cessation counseling with or without adjunctive Prolonged Exposure (varenicline + PE vs. varenicline only) (Foa et al., 2017). Data were available for both baseline and end-of-treatment assessments of trauma cognitions severity of cigarette smoking and PTSD symptoms. We conducted both cross-sectional and lagged analysis to simultaneously examine the bidirectional relationship from trauma cognitions and 1) cigarette smoking and 2) PTSD symptoms.
RESULTS
Trauma cognitions (specifically, negative beliefs about the self and the world) were significantly associated with cigarette/day at the end of treatment for participants who received varenicline only. However, baseline trauma cognitions did not predict post-treatment cigarettes/day. Baseline trauma cognitions (specifically negative beliefs about the self and world) were associated with PTSD severity at both baseline and end of treatment; furthermore, these negative cognitions at baseline positively and prospectively predicted end-of-treatment PTSD severity, but not vice versa. Wald tests revealed that there were no treatment effects on these cross-lagged relationships. Conclusions These findings provide novel empirical support for the importance of addressing trauma-related cognitions in the smoking cessation treatment efforts for patients with comorbid PTSD and cigarette smoking.",2020,"RESULTS

1573,31570124,Impact of a mindfulness-based intervention on undergraduate pharmacy students' stress and distress: Quantitative results of a mixed-methods study.,"INTRODUCTION
Stress negatively impacts upon physical and mental health. Pharmacy students demonstrate higher stress than the general population. Mindfulness may improve pharmacy students' stress and distress levels. The purpose of this study was to assess the quantitative effects of a mindfulness-based intervention on pharmacy student stress, distress, burnout, and mindfulness levels.
METHODS
A quasi-randomised controlled trial was conducted at an Irish pharmacy school during the 2016 to 2017 academic year. The intervention group completed a four-week mindfulness course. The waitlist control group received only usual education. Participants completed a demographics form, the Perceived Stress Scale, the General Health Questionnaire, the Maslach Burnout Inventory Student Survey, and the Five Facet Mindfulness Questionnaire at baseline and immediately post-intervention.
RESULTS
Full data were gathered and analysed for 99 students (51 intervention, 48 control, 66.7% female). There were no significant differences between the intervention and control groups at baseline. Post-intervention, a large effect on mental distress was found (Partial Eta Squared 0.137) with the intervention group reporting statistically significantly lower distress than the control group (F (1,98) = 15.3, p < 0.005). Stress and distress were significantly improved for females (p = 0.026, p < 0.005), while males improved in the observing facet of mindfulness (p = 0.038). There was a positive association between attendance and these findings (r2 = 0.191, p < 0.005).
CONCLUSION
Female pharmacy students experienced improvements in mental distress and stress after participation in the intervention.

1575,32413383,Cost-effectiveness of adding fluoride varnish to a preventive protocol for early childhood caries in rural children with no access to fluoridated drinking water.,"OBJECTIVES
Evidence of the cost-effectiveness of fluoride varnish in the prevention of caries is not yet fully conclusive. The aim of this study was to assess the incremental cost-effectiveness ratio (ICER) of the community-wide application of fluoride varnish in the prevention of early childhood caries (ECC) in non-fluoridated areas.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
A cost-effectiveness analysis was carried out based on a clinical decision tree from the payer's perspective. The effectiveness and cost of the varnish were determined from a two-year follow-up triple-blind randomized control trial in 275 two- to three-year-old children. Costs and benefits were discounted at 3% per year. Only direct costs were evaluated, expressed in Chilean pesos (CLP) valued in July, 2019 (exchange rate USD = CLP686.06). A univariate deterministic sensitivity analysis was carried out.
RESULTS
Incidence of ECC was 45% for the varnish group and 55.6% for the placebo group with a two-year follow-up. The weighted cost to intervene and treat the consequences of ECC was CLP 67,757 (USD96.76) for the fluoride varnish and CLP 67,738 (USD98.74) for the control group. The ICER was CLP 173 (USD0.25) for each extra healthy child in favor of fluoride varnish. The sensitivity analysis showed that the increase in caries was the variable which most influenced the ICER.
CONCLUSIONS
The protocol that included fluoride varnish is more effective and less costly in the prevention of ECC in non-fluoridated areas, compared with a placebo.
CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE

1576,32413933,Adalimumab for maintenance of remission in Crohn's disease.,"BACKGROUND
Conventional medications for Crohn's disease (CD) include anti-inflammatory drugs, immunosuppressants and corticosteroids. If an individual does not respond, or loses response to first-line treatments, then biologic therapies such as tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) antagonists such as adalimumab are considered for treating CD. Maintenance of remission of CD is a clinically important goal, as disease relapse can negatively affect quality of life.
OBJECTIVES
To assess the efficacy and safety of adalimumab for maintenance of remission in people with quiescent CD.
SEARCH METHODS
We searched the Cochrane IBD Group Specialized Register, CENTRAL, MEDLINE, Embase, and clinicaltrials.gov from inception to April 2019.
SELECTION CRITERIA
We considered for inclusion randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comparing adalimumab to placebo or to an active comparator.

We analyzed data on an intention-to-treat basis. We calculated risk ratios (RRs) and corresponding 95% confidence intervals (95% CI) for dichotomous outcomes. The primary outcome was failure to maintain clinical remission. We define clinical remission as a Crohn's Disease Activity Index (CDAI) score of < 150. Secondary outcomes were failure to maintain clinical response, endoscopic remission, endoscopic response, histological remission and adverse events (AEs). We assessed biases using the Cochrane 'Risk of bias' tool. We used GRADE to assess the overall certainty of evidence supporting the primary outcome.
MAIN RESULTS
We included six RCTs (1158 participants). We rated four trials at low risk of bias and two trials at unclear risk of bias. All participants had moderate-to-severe CD that was in clinical remission. Four studies were placebo-controlled (1012 participants). Two studies (70 participants) compared adalimumab to active medication (azathioprine, mesalamine or 6-mercaptopurine) in participants who had an ileocolic resection prior to study enrolment. Adalimumab versus placebo Fifty-nine per cent (252/430) of participants treated with adalimumab failed to maintain clinical remission at 52 to 56 weeks, compared with 86% (217/253) of participants receiving placebo (RR 0.70, 95% CI 0.64 to 0.77; 3 studies, 683 participants; high-certainty evidence). Among those who received prior TNF-α antagonist therapy, 69% (129/186) of adalimumab participants failed to maintain clinical or endoscopic response at 52 to 56 weeks, compared with 93% (108/116) of participants who received placebo (RR 0.76, 95% CI 0.68 to 0.85; 2 studies, 302 participants; moderate-certainty evidence). Fifty-one per cent (192/374) of participants who received adalimumab failed to maintain clinical remission at 24 to 26 weeks, compared with 79% (149/188) of those who received placebo (RR 0.66, 95% CI 0.52 to 0.83; 2 studies, 554 participants; moderate-certainty evidence). Eighty-seven per cent (561/643) of participants who received adalimumab reported an AE compared with 85% (315/369) of participants who received placebo (RR 1.01, 95% CI 0.94 to 1.09; 4 studies, 1012 participants; high-certainty evidence). Serious adverse events were seen in 8% (52/643) of participants who received adalimumab and 14% (53/369) of participants who received placebo (RR 0.56, 95% CI 0.39 to 0.80; 4 studies, 1012 participants; moderate-certainty evidence) and withdrawal due to AEs was reported in 7% (45/643) of adalimumab participants compared to 13% (48/369) of placebo participants (RR 0.59, 95% CI 0.38 to 0.91; 4 studies, 1012 participants; moderate-certainty evidence). Commonly-reported AEs included CD aggravation, arthralgia, nasopharyngitis, urinary tract infections, headache, nausea, fatigue and abdominal pain. Adalimumab versus active comparators No studies reported failure to maintain clinical remission. One study reported on failure to maintain clinical response and endoscopic remission at 104 weeks in ileocolic resection participants who received either adalimumab, azathioprine or mesalamine as post-surgical maintenance therapy. Thirteen per cent (2/16) of adalimumab participants failed to maintain clinical response compared with 54% (19/35) of azathioprine or mesalamine participants (RR 0.23, 95% CI 0.06 to 0.87; 51 participants). Six per cent (1/16) of participants who received adalimumab failed to maintain endoscopic remission, compared with 57% (20/35) of participants who received azathioprine or mesalamine (RR 0.11, 95% CI 0.02 to 0.75; 51 participants; very low-certainty evidence). One study reported on failure to maintain endoscopic response at 24 weeks in ileocolic resection participants who received either adalimumab or 6-mercaptopurine (6-MP) as post-surgical maintenance therapy. Nine per cent (1/11) of adalimumab participants failed to maintain endoscopic remission compared with 50% (4/8) of 6-MP participants (RR 0.18, 95% CI 0.02 to 1.33; 19 participants).
AUTHORS' CONCLUSIONS
Adalimumab is an effective therapy for maintenance of clinical remission in people with quiescent CD. Adalimumab is also effective in those who have previously been treated with TNF-α antagonists. The effect of adalimumab in the post-surgical setting is uncertain. More research is needed in people with recent bowel surgery for CD to better determine treatment plans following surgery. Future research should continue to explore factors that influence initial and subsequent biologic selection for people with moderate-to-severe CD. Studies comparing adalimumab to other active medications are needed, to help determine the optimal maintenance therapy for CD.",2020,"Six per cent (1/16) of participants who received adalimumab failed to maintain endoscopic remission, compared with 57% (20/35) of participants who received azathioprine or mesalamine (RR 0.11, 95% CI 0.02 to 0.75;

1577,31859677,Perceptions and Experiences of Women Participating in a Digital Technology-Based Physical Activity Intervention (the mPED Trial): Qualitative Study.,"BACKGROUND
Despite the benefits of regular physical activity, women in every age group have lower activity levels than men, and few women meet the recommended levels of physical activity. Digital technologies have been useful in increasing physical activity during the course of an interventional study. However, sustaining that activity once the clinical trial was complete was a major challenge.
OBJECTIVE
This study aimed to describe the experiences and perspectives of physically inactive women who completed the mobile phone-based physical activity education (mPED), a randomized controlled trial, at 12 months.
METHODS
Of 210 women who were enrolled in the mPED trial, 203 completed a 12-month open-ended exit interview and survey through phone. The participants were asked about their physical activity levels; their digital technology use; what they learned from, liked, and would change about the trial; their motivations to keep active post-trial; and their advice for other women. Interviews were transcribed verbatim and thematically analyzed using the brief survey qualitative description. Descriptive statistics were used to describe the survey data with the significance level set at P<.05.
RESULTS
In the 12-month survey, a greater proportion of the participants in the intervention group, compared with the control group, reported that they regularly wore a pedometer or physical activity tracker (49.3%, 66/143 vs 26.1%, 18/69; P=.002) and engaged in brisk walking (54.5%, 73/134 vs 30.4%, 21/69; P=.001). The experiences and perceptions of physical activity of physically inactive women over time were embedded in a complex interplay of internal and external factors. A total of 6 interactive themes emerged as critical in supporting continued engagement in physical activity postintervention: tracking, technology versus personal touch, accountability, resources and environment, motivation, and habit formation. Technology allowed for self-tracking, which supported internal accountability. However, tracking by another person (personal touch) was needed for external accountability. Resources and environment underpinned the relationship among the themes of tracking, technology versus personal touch, accountability, motivation, and habit formation.
CONCLUSIONS
Future research is needed to identify the best ways to harness this dynamic process in promoting and sustaining physical activity among inactive women. Digital technology is evolving at an exponential rate and provides new opportunities to transform research into new approaches to promote physical activity.

Blood samples were collected at scheduled times according to the study protocol. Statistical analysis of area under the concentration-time curve from time 0 to 168 hours (AUC 0-t ), area under the curve from time zero to infinity (AUC 0-∞ ), and peak plasma concentration (C max ) was conducted. Two formulations were considered bioequivalent if the 90% confidence intervals (CIs) of the geometric mean ratios for AUC 0-t, AUC 0-∞ , and C max were within the range of 0.80-1.25. Adverse events were recorded and evaluated throughout the studies. A total of 48 subjects with 24 in each study completed the 2 studies.

1579,32413250,Implementing Active Support in disability day services: A 6-month prospective study on engagement and behaviours of concern among adults with intellectual disability.,"BACKGROUND
Adults with intellectual disability are often disengaged in disability services. While Active Support has found efficacy in residential settings, less is known in day services. This study examines the impact of Active Support in day services for adults with intellectual disability in Singapore, particularly on engagement and behaviours of concern.
METHOD
An experimental design was used, with a group of 32 participants receiving an Active Support programme over 6 months, compared to a control group of 16 participants with treatment as usual. Time sampling of behaviours was conducted every 4 weeks.
RESULTS
The Active Support group saw increases in activity engagement and social engagement with staff, and decreases in disengagement and stereotypical behaviours, compared to the control group over time.

1580,32414137,Alcohol Hangover Does Not Alter the Application of Model-Based and Model-Free Learning Strategies.,"Frequent alcohol binges shift behavior from goal-directed to habitual processing modes. This shift in reward-associated learning strategies plays a key role in the development and maintenance of alcohol use disorders and seems to persist during (early stages of) sobriety in at-risk drinkers. Yet still, it has remained unclear whether this phenomenon might be associated with alcohol hangover and thus also be found in social drinkers. In an experimental crossover design, n = 25 healthy young male participants performed a two-step decision-making task once sober and once hungover (i.e., when reaching sobriety after consuming 2.6 g of alcohol per estimated liter of total body water). This task allows the separation of effortful model-based and computationally less demanding model-free learning strategies. The experimental induction of alcohol hangover was successful, but we found no significant hangover effects on model-based and model-free learning scores, the balance between model-free and model-based valuation (ω), or perseveration tendencies (π). Bayesian analyses provided positive evidence for the null hypothesis for all measures except π (anecdotal evidence for the null hypothesis). Taken together, alcohol hangover, which results from a single binge drinking episode, does not impair the application of effortful and computationally costly model-based learning strategies and/or increase model-free learning strategies. This supports the notion that the behavioral deficits observed in at-risk drinkers are most likely not caused by the immediate aftereffects of individual binge drinking events.",2020,Bayesian analyses provided positive evidence for the null hypothesis for all measures except π (anecdotal evidence for the null hypothesis).,['n = 25 healthy young male participants'],[],[],"[{'cui': 'C0332239', 'cui_str': 'Young'}, {'cui': 'C0086582', 'cui_str': 'Male'}]",[],[],25.0,0.00984522,Bayesian analyses provided positive evidence for the null hypothesis for all measures except π (anecdotal evidence for the null hypothesis).,"[{'ForeName': 'Julia', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Berghäuser', 'Affiliation': 'Chair of Addiction Research, Institute for Clinical Psychology and Psychotherapy, Faculty of Psychology TU Dresden, Chemnitzer Str. 46, 01062 Dresden, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Wiebke', 'Initials': 'W', 'LastName': 'Bensmann', 'Affiliation': 'Cognitive Neurophysiology, Department of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, Faculty of Medicine, TU Dresden, Fetscherstr. 74, 01307 Dresden, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Nicolas', 'Initials': 'N', 'LastName': 'Zink', 'Affiliation': 'Cognitive Neurophysiology, Department of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, Faculty of Medicine, TU Dresden, Fetscherstr. 74, 01307 Dresden, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Tanja', 'Initials': 'T', 'LastName': 'Endrass', 'Affiliation': 'Chair of Addiction Research, Institute for Clinical Psychology and Psychotherapy, Faculty of Psychology TU Dresden, Chemnitzer Str. 46, 01062 Dresden, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Christian', 'Initials': 'C', 'LastName': 'Beste', 'Affiliation': 'Cognitive Neurophysiology, Department of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, Faculty of Medicine, TU Dresden, Fetscherstr. 74, 01307 Dresden, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Ann-Kathrin', 'Initials': 'AK', 'LastName': 'Stock', 'Affiliation': 'Cognitive Neurophysiology, Department of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, Faculty of Medicine, TU Dresden, Fetscherstr. 74, 01307 Dresden, Germany.'}]",Journal of clinical medicine,['10.3390/jcm9051453']

Out of 874 women assessed after delivery (440 control group (CG)/434 intervention group (IG)), 703 children were followed (365/338; CG/IG), with the aim to assess whether the adherence to a MedDiet during pregnancy induces health benefits for the offspring during the first two years of life. Logistic regression analysis showed that the IG in children of mothers with pre-gestational body mass index (BMI) < 25 kg/m 2 and normal glucose tolerance (NGT), was associated with a lower risk (RR(95% CI)) of suffering from severe events requiring hospitalization due to bronchiolitis/asthma (0.75(0.58-0.98) and 0.77(0.59-0.99), respectively) or other diseases that required either antibiotic (0.80(0.65-0.98) and 0.80(0.65-0.99), respectively), corticosteroid treatment (0.73(0.59-0.90) and 0.79(0.62-1.00) respectively) or both (all p < 0.05).

1582,32414338,Ultrasound in managing extrapulmonary tuberculosis: a randomized controlled two-center study.,"BACKGROUND
Patients with clinically suspected tuberculosis are often treated empirically, as diagnosis - especially of extrapulmonary tuberculosis - remains challenging. This leads to an overtreatment of tuberculosis and to underdiagnosis of possible differential diagnoses.
METHODS
This open-label, parallel-group, superiority randomized controlled trial is done in a rural and an urban center in Tanzania. HIV-positive and -negative adults (≥18 years) with clinically suspected extrapulmonary tuberculosis are randomized in a 1:1 ratio to an intervention- or control group, stratified by center and HIV status. The intervention consists of a management algorithm including extended focused assessment of sonography for HIV and tuberculosis (eFASH) in combination with chest X-ray and microbiological tests. Treatment with anti-tuberculosis drugs is started, if eFASH is positive, chest X-ray suggests tuberculosis, or a microbiological result is positive for tuberculosis. Patients in the control group are managed according national guidelines. Treatment is started if microbiology is positive or empirically according to the treating physician. The primary outcome is the proportion of correctly managed patients at 6 months (i.e patients who were treated with anti-tuberculosis treatment and had definite or probable tuberculosis, and patients who were not treated with anti-tuberculosis treatment and did not have tuberculosis). Secondary outcomes are the proportion of symptom-free patients at two and 6 months, and time to death. The sample size is 650 patients.
DISCUSSION
This study will determine, whether ultrasound in combination with other tests can increase the proportion of correctly managed patients with clinically suspected extrapulmonary tuberculosis, thus reducing overtreatment with anti-tuberculosis drugs.

1583,32414298,Adjusting for adherence in randomized trials when adherence is measured as a continuous variable: An application to the Lipid Research Clinics Coronary Primary Prevention Trial.,"BACKGROUND
Clinicians and patients may be more interested in per-protocol effect estimates than intention-to-treat effect estimates from randomized trials. However, per-protocol effect estimates may be biased due to insufficient adjustment for prognostic factors that predict adherence. Adjustment for this bias is possible when appropriate methods, such as inverse probability weighting, are used. But, when adherence is measured as a continuous variable, constructing these weights can be challenging.
METHODS
In the placebo arm of the Lipid Research Clinics Coronary Primary Prevention Trial, we estimated the 7-year cumulative incidence of coronary heart disease under 100% adherence and 0% adherence to placebo. We used dose-response discrete-hazards models with inverse probability weighting to adjust for pre- and post-randomization covariates. We considered several continuous distributions for constructing the inverse probability weights.
RESULTS
The risk difference estimate for 100% adherence compared with 0% adherence ranged from -7.7 to -6.1 percentage points without adjustment for baseline and post-baseline covariates, and ranged from -1.8 to 2.2 percentage points with adjustment using inverse probability weights, depending on the dose-response model and inverse probability weight distribution used.
CONCLUSIONS
Methods which appropriately adjust for time-varying post-randomization variables can explain away much of the bias in the ""effect"" of adherence to placebo. When considering continuous adherence, investigators should consider several models as estimates may be sensitive to the model chosen.",2020,"The risk difference estimate for 100% adherence compared with 0% adherence ranged from -7.7 to -6.1 percentage points without adjustment for baseline and post-baseline covariates, and ranged from -1.8 to 2.2 percentage points with adjustment using inverse probability weights, depending on the dose-response model and inverse probability weight distribution used.

1584,31618678,"Antibiotic treatment for 6 days versus 12 days in patients with severe cellulitis: a multicentre randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, non-inferiority trial.","OBJECTIVES
To investigate whether antibiotic treatment of 6 days' duration is non-inferior to treatment for 12 days in patients hospitalized for cellulitis.
METHODS
This multicentre, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, non-inferiority trial enrolled adult patients hospitalized for severe cellulitis who were treated with intravenous flucloxacillin. At day 6 participants with symptom improvement who were afebrile were randomized between an additional 6 days of oral flucloxacillin or placebo in a 1:1 ratio, stratified for diabetes and hospital. The primary outcome was cure by day 14, without relapse by day 28. Secondary outcomes included a modified cure assessment and relapse rate by day 90.
RESULTS
Between August 2014 and June 2017, 151 of 248 included participants were randomized. The intention-to-treat population consisted of 76 and 73 participants allocated to 12 and 6 days of antibiotic therapy, respectively (mean age 62 years, 67% males, 24% diabetics); 38/76 (50.0%) and 36/73 (49.3%) were cured in the 12- and 6-day groups respectively (ARR 0.7 percentage points, 95%CI: -15.0 to 16.3). Cure rates were 56/76 (73.7%) and 49/73 (67.1%) with the modified cure assessment (ARR 6.6, 95%CI: -8.0 to 20.8). After initial cure without relapse, day 90 relapse rates were higher in the 6-day group (6% versus 24%, p < 0.05).
CONCLUSIONS
Given the wide confidence intervals, we can neither confirm nor refute our hypothesis that 6 days of therapy is non-inferior to 12 days of therapy. However, a 6-day course resulted in significantly more frequent relapses by day 90.

In this study, we set out to evaluate the role of the panaceo-micro-activation (PMA) zeolite in the reduction of the incidence of CIPN and hematological and liver toxicity. The possible impact of the PMA-zeolite as an adjuvant therapeutic agent is based on its detoxification properties toward agents promoting the development of neuropathy (e.g., ammonium - recognized as a neurotoxic agent produced by tumors), as well as its positive impact on immunity and oxidative stress through its effects in the gastrointestinal tract. From April 2015 to October 2018, a total of 120 patients (pts) diagnosed with predominantly colorectal cancer requiring oxaliplatin-based chemotherapy were randomized to receive either the PMA-zeolite (Multizeo Med) or placebo while undergoing oxaliplatin-based chemotherapy. A nerve-conduction study (NCS) was planned at the baseline, after three and six months of chemotherapy, to evaluate CIPN. Furthermore, the evaluation of hematological and liver toxicity was performed during every cycle of chemotherapy. 70.6% and 64.3% of patients developed CIPN in the placebo and the PMA-zeolite group, respectively. Patients treated with the PMA-zeolite were able to undergo more cycles of chemotherapy (p = 0.03), which also indicates a significant improvement in tolerance to the therapy. The group treated with the PMA-zeolite showed a lower CIPN (although not statistically significant within the whole group of subjects) compared to patients receiving placebo. This advantage was, however, statistically significant in men (p = 0.047). In addition, supplementation with the PMA-zeolite resulted in a lower incidence of severe-grade hematological toxicity (trend toward statistical significance of p = 0.09 was observed). Cancer patients may benefit from the therapy with the appropriate certified zeolite-products (e.g., the PMA-zeolite) for human use in CIPN. The lower CIPN (statistically significant results in the male subgroup) was accompanied by a trend of lower incidence of severe-grade hematological toxicity.

1586,32414331,"Patient information, communication and competence empowerment in oncology (PIKKO) - evaluation of a supportive care intervention for overall oncological patients. Study protocol of a non-randomized controlled trial.","BACKGROUND
Cancer patients have to undergo a difficult medical therapy and are also confronted with various psychological, social and economic problems. Support is available from many providers, but patients often gain no access to it. Accordingly, there is a need for a single point of contact that can provide advice, information and assistance. In the state of Saarland, Germany, a supportive new consulting and information path (PIKKO) for all types of cancer is currently evaluated by the German Cancer Society, the Cancer Society of the Saarland, three statutory health insurances and the Jena University Hospital. PIKKO is designed to improve quality of life, self-efficacy, health literacy and patient satisfaction and to reduce psychological distress, related health care costs and the days of inability to work. This methodical work presents the process and analysis planning of this evaluation.
METHODS
The study population includes all cancer types, both new and existing diseases. PIKKO (with patient navigator, oncological knowledge database, specialized oncological counseling) is evaluated within a controlled, non-randomized, comparative, multicenter, longitudinal design. In addition to patient surveys, data from statutory health insurances and utilization data from the web database are collected, and interviews with patient navigators and doctors are carried out. Patients are assigned to a control (usual care) or an intervention group (u. c. + PIKKO). Primary outcome is the health related quality of life (SF-12) six months after baseline. Secondary outcomes are self-efficacy (GSE), psychological distress such as depression (PHQ-9) or anxiety (GAD-7), health literacy (HLS-EU-Q47) and patient satisfaction in health care (Qualiskope-A). Furthermore, the time course of direct costs of medical care (e.g. work disability days) and usage data of the intervention modules are analyzed. Among other statistical procedures, we use t-tests, univariate tests and growth curve models.
DISCUSSION
If PIKKO proves to be effective, recommendations can be made to health organizations, which should lead to the concept being rolled out throughout Germany and included into oncological guidelines. We expect PIKKO to be a useful addition to usual cancer care, helping to improve the quality of life of cancer patients and reduce healthcare costs.

The PAPHIO study; a randomized controlled trial with 2X2 crossover design will implement a self-directed physical activity program in which participants will engage in self-monitoring and receive motivational interviewing to enhance physical activity adherence. The study aims to determine the effects of 24 weeks self-directed activity combined with motivational interviewing (MI) on (i) psychological health, (ii) quality of life (QoL) and (iii) immune function in female breast cancer survivors.
METHODS
The study will recruit 64 female breast cancer survivors within 3 years of diagnosis and at least 6 months post primary treatments at Western Health Sunshine Hospital, Melbourne, Australia. They will be randomly allocated to immediate intervention (IIG group) or delayed intervention groups (DIG group) in a 1:1 ratio. All participants will be given a wearable device (Fitbit Alta HR) and undertake self-directed physical activity for 24 weeks and will receive MI for 12 weeks (IIG; during week 0 to week 12 and DIG; during week 13 to week 24). Participants' daily step count and the changes of immune cell functionality will be assessed at the beginning (week 1: T1), week 12 (T2) and week 24 (T3) of the program. Physical activity adherence will be assessed at T2 and T3. Participants will also complete four questionnaires assessing exercise self-regulation (BREQ2), exercise barrier and task self-efficacy, mental health (DASS-21) and QoL (FACT-B) at three time points (T1 to T3). Linear-mixed models will be used to assess the relationship between physical activity volume by step counting and mental health (DASS-21), QoL (FACT-B), immune biomarkers, self-regulation (BREQ2) and self-efficacy at T1, T2 and T3;between 2 groups.

1589,32414376,Implementation and adoption of a health insurance support tool in the electronic health record: a mixed methods analysis within a randomized trial.,"BACKGROUND
In addition to delivering vital health care to millions of patients in the United States, community health centers (CHCs) provide needed health insurance outreach and enrollment support to their communities. We developed a health insurance enrollment tracking tool integrated within the electronic health record (EHR) and conducted a hybrid implementation-effectiveness trial in a CHC-based research network to assess tool adoption using two implementation strategies.
METHODS
CHCs were recruited from the OCHIN practice-based research network. Seven health center systems (23 CHC clinic sites) were recruited and randomized to receive basic educational materials alone (Arm 1), or these materials plus facilitation (Arm 2) during the 18-month study period, September 2016-April 2018. Facilitation consisted of monthly contacts with clinic staff and utilized audit and feedback and guided improvement cycles. We measured total and monthly tool utilization from the EHR. We conducted structured interviews of CHC staff to assess factors associated with tool utilization. Qualitative data were analyzed using an immersion-crystallization approach with barriers and facilitators identified using the Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research.
RESULTS
The majority of CHCs in both study arms adopted the enrollment tool. The rate of tool utilization was, on average, higher in Arm 2 compared to Arm 1 (20.0% versus 4.7%, p < 0.01). However, by the end of the study period, the rate of tool utilization was similar in both arms; and observed between-arm differences in tool utilization were largely driven by a single, large health center in Arm 2. Perceived relative advantage of the tool was the key factor identified by clinic staff as driving tool utilization. Implementation climate and leadership engagement were also associated with tool utilization.
CONCLUSIONS
Using basic education materials and low-intensity facilitation, CHCs quickly adopted an EHR-based tool to support critical outreach and enrollment activities aimed at improving access to health insurance in their communities. Though facilitation carried some benefit, a CHC's perceived relative advantage of the tool was the primary driver of decisions to implement the tool.

1590,32414368,Preparing for an orthopedic consultation using an eHealth tool: a randomized controlled trial in patients with hip and knee osteoarthritis.,"BACKGROUND
To evaluate the effect of a stand-alone mobile and web-based educational intervention (eHealth tool) compared to usual preparation of a first orthopedic consultation of patients with hip or knee osteoarthritis (OA) on patients' satisfaction.
METHODS
A two-armed randomized controlled trial involving 286 patients with (suspicion of) hip or knee OA, randomly allocated to either receiving an educational eHealth tool to prepare their upcoming consultation (n = 144) or usual care (n = 142). Satisfaction with the consultation on three subscales (range 1-4) of the Consumer Quality Index (CQI - primary outcome) and knowledge (assessed using 22 statements on OA, range 0-22), treatment beliefs (assessed by the Treatment beliefs in OsteoArthritis questionnaire, range 1-5), assessment of patient's involvement in consultation by the surgeon (assessed on a 5-point Likert scale) and patient satisfaction with the outcome of the consultation (numeric rating scale), were assessed.
RESULTS
No differences between groups were observed on the 3 subscales of the CQI (group difference (95% CI): communication 0.009 (- 0.10, 0.12), conduct - 0.02 (- 0.12, 0.07) and information provision 0.02 (- 0.18, 0.21)). Between group differences (95% CI) were in favor of the intervention group for knowledge (1.4 (0.6, 2.2)), negative beliefs regarding physical activities (- 0.19 (- 0.37, - 0.002) and pain medication (- 0.30 (- 0.49, - 0.01)). We found no differences on other secondary outcomes.
CONCLUSIONS
An educational eHealth tool to prepare a first orthopedic consultation for hip or knee OA does not result in higher patient satisfaction with the consultation, but it does influence cognitions about osteoarthritis.

1591,32414398,Individuals living in an onchocerciasis focus and treated three-monthly with ivermectin develop fewer new onchocercal nodules than individuals treated annually.,"BACKGROUND
Little information is available on the effect of ivermectin on the third- and fourth-stage larvae of Onchocerca volvulus. To assess a possible prophylactic effect of ivermectin on this parasite, we compared the effects of different ivermectin regimens on the acquisition of onchocercal nodules.
METHODS
We analyzed data from a controlled randomized clinical trial of ivermectin conducted in the Mbam Valley (Cameroon) between 1994 and 1998 in a cohort of onchocerciasis infected individuals. The number of nodules that appeared between the start and the end of the clinical trial was analyzed, using ANOVA and multivariable Poisson regressions, between four treatment arms: 150 µg/kg annually, 800 µg/kg annually, 150 µg/kg 3-monthly, and 800 µg/kg 3-monthly.
RESULTS
The mean number of nodules that appeared during the trial was reduced by 17.7% in subjects treated 3-monthly compared to those treated annually (regardless of the dose). Poisson regression model, adjusting on subject's age and weight, initial number of nodules and intensity of O. volvulus infection in his village of residence, confirmed that the incidence of new nodules was reduced in 3-monthly treatment arms compared to annually treatment arms, and that the dosage of ivermectin does not seem to influence this effect. Furthermore, the number of newly acquired nodules was positively associated with the initial number of nodules. Analysis of disappearance of nodules did not show any significant difference between the treatment groups.
CONCLUSIONS
To our knowledge, these results suggest for the first time in humans, that ivermectin has a partial prophylactic effect on O. volvulus.

1592,32414405,"""[Repeat] testing and counseling is one of the key [services] that the government should continue providing"": participants' perceptions on extended repeat HIV testing and enhanced counseling (ERHTEC) for primary HIV prevention in pregnant and lactating women in the PRIMAL study, Uganda.","BACKGROUND
The 'Primary HIV Prevention among Pregnant and Lactating Ugandan Women' (PRIMAL) randomized controlled trial aimed to assess an enhanced counseling strategy linked to extended postpartum repeat HIV testing and enhanced counseling among 820 HIV-negative pregnant and lactating women aged 18-49 years and 410 of their male partners to address the first pillar of the WHO Global Strategy for the Prevention of Mother-to-Child HIV transmission (PMTCT). This paper presents findings of qualitative studies aimed at evaluating participants' and service providers' perceptions on the acceptability and feasibility of the intervention and at understanding the effects of the intervention on risk reduction, couple communication, and emotional support from women's partners.
METHODS
PRIMAL Study participants were enrolled from two antenatal care clinics and randomized 1:1 to an intervention or control arm. Both arms received repeat sexually transmitted infections (STI) and HIV testing at enrolment, labor and delivery, and at 3, 6, 12, 18 and 24 months postpartum. The intervention consisted of enhanced quarterly counseling on HIV risk reduction, couple communication, family planning and nutrition delivered by study counselors through up to 24 months post-partum. Control participants received repeat standard post-test counseling. Qualitative data were collected from intervention women participants, counsellors and midwives at baseline, midline and end of the study through 18 focus group discussions and 44 key informant interviews. Data analysis followed a thematic approach using framework analysis and a matrix-based system for organizing, reducing, and synthesizing data.
RESULTS
At baseline, FGD participants mentioned multiple sexual partners and lack of condom use as the main risks for pregnant and lactating women to acquire HIV. The main reasons for having multiple sexual partners were 1) the cultural practice not to have sex in the late pre-natal and early post-natal period; 2) increased sexual desire during pregnancy; 3) alcohol abuse; 4) poverty; and 5) conflict in couples. Consistent condom use at baseline was limited due to lack of knowledge and low acceptance of condom use in couples. The majority of intervention participants enrolled as couples felt enhanced counselling improved understanding, faithfulness, mutual support and appreciation within their couple. Another benefit mentioned by participants was improvement of couple communication and negotiation, as well as daily decision-making around sexual needs, family planning and condom use. Participants stressed the importance of providing counselling services to all couples.
CONCLUSION
This study shows that enhanced individual and couple counselling linked to extended repeat HIV and STI testing and focusing on HIV prevention, couple communication, family planning and nutrition is a feasible and acceptable intervention that could enhance risk reduction programs among pregnant and lactating women.

1593,31627773,Challenges in conducting trials for pediatric tuberculous meningitis: lessons from the field.,"SETTING: TBM-KIDS is a phase I/II trial enrolling children with tuberculous meningitis (TBM) in three tertiary referral centers in India and Malawi. OBJECTIVE: To describe the challenges encountered in conducting the first randomized clinical trial of antimicrobial agents in pediatric TBM. DESIGN: The sources of the data were primarily monthly trial reports, non-enrollment case report forms, study diaries and registers maintained for recruitment, experiences shared by key team members during regular study calls and comments from site review visits. We reviewed, broadly categorized, and describe in detail the challenges encountered by study teams in trial implementation. RESULTS: Over 17 months, 3371 children with clinical presentations consistent with meningoencephalitis or undergoing lumbar puncture were assessed for eligibility; 21 (<1%) met enrollment criteria. We encountered challenges related to diagnosis, management of sick children, large catchment areas, adverse event attribution, concomitant medications, infrastructure requirements, expensive pediatric formulations with short expiry, and detection of treatment response in a highly variable disease across the age continuum. Training and adaptation of tools for neurocognitive and neurologic function assessment were necessary. Special care was undertaken to explain study participation to distraught caregivers and manage children longitudinally. CONCLUSION: Interventional trials in pediatric TBM are challenging but are critically important for improving the treatment of a disease that disables children physically, cognitively and emotionally.

1594,32414411,Steps to recovery: body weight-supported treadmill training for critically ill patients: a randomized controlled trial.,"BACKGROUND
Early mobilization has been proven effective for patients in intensive care units (ICUs) to improve functional recovery. However, early mobilization of critically ill, often mechanically ventilated, patients is cumbersome because of the attachment to tubes, drains, monitoring devices and muscle weakness. A mobile treadmill with bodyweight support may help to initiate mobilization earlier and more effectively. The aim of this study is to assess the effectiveness of weight-supported treadmill training in critically ill patients during and after ICU stay on time to independent functional ambulation.
METHODS
In this randomized controlled trial, a custom-built bedside body weight-supported treadmill will be used and evaluated. Patients are included if they have been mechanically ventilated for at least 48 hours, are able to follow instructions, have quadriceps muscle strength of Medical Research Council sum-score 2 (MRC 2) or higher, can sit unsupported and meet the safety criteria for physical exercise. Exclusion criteria are language barriers, no prior walking ability, contraindications for physiotherapy or a neurological condition as reason for ICU admission. We aim to include 88 patients and randomize them into either the intervention or the control group. The intervention group will receive usual care plus bodyweight-supported treadmill training (BWSTT) daily. The BWSSTT consists of walking on a mobile treadmill while supported by a harness. The control group will receive usual care physiotherapy treatment daily consisting of progressive activities such as bed-cycling and active functional training exercises. In both groups, we will aim for a total of 40 minutes of physiotherapy treatment time every day in one or two sessions, as tolerated by the patient. The primary outcome is time to functional ambulation as measured in days, secondary outcomes include walking distance, muscle strength, status of functional mobility and symptoms of post-traumatic stress. All measurements will be done by assessors who are blinded to the intervention on the regular wards until hospital discharge.
DISCUSSION
This will be the first study comparing the effects of BWSTT and conventional physiotherapy for critically ill patients during and after ICU stay. The results of this study contribute to a better understanding of the effectiveness of early physiotherapy interventions for critically ill patients.

1595,32414425,Temporary interruption of baricitinib: characterization of interruptions and effect on clinical outcomes in patients with rheumatoid arthritis.,"BACKGROUND
In clinical practice, temporary interruption of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) therapy is common for various reasons including side effects, non-compliance, or necessity for surgery. To characterize temporary interruptions of baricitinib and placebo-matched tablets in phase 3 studies of patients with moderate-to-severe rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and describe their impact on efficacy and safety.
METHODS
During 4 baricitinib phase 3 studies, investigators documented timing, reason, and duration of investigator-initiated temporary interruptions of study drug. In 2 studies, patients recorded RA symptoms in daily diaries for 12 weeks. Post hoc analyses investigated changes in symptom scores during interruptions and resumption of treatment. Interruptions were evaluated for reoccurrence of adverse events or laboratory abnormalities after retreatment.
RESULTS
Across the placebo-controlled studies, interruptions occurred in larger proportions of baricitinib- (2 mg, 18%; 4 mg, 18%) vs placebo-treated (9%) patients in only one study (bDMARD-inadequate responder patients, RA-BEACON). In the active comparator-controlled studies, the lowest rates of interruption were in the baricitinib monotherapy arm (9%) of RA-BEGIN (vs methotrexate monotherapy or combination therapy), and proportions were similar for baricitinib (10%) and adalimumab (9%) in RA-BEAM. Adverse events were the most common reason for interruption, but their reoccurrence after drug restart was infrequent. Most interruptions lasted ≤ 2 weeks. Daily diaries indicated modest symptom increases during interruption with return to pre-interruption levels or better after resumption. Interruptions had no impact on long-term efficacy outcomes.
CONCLUSIONS
Consistent with its pharmacologic properties, brief interruptions of baricitinib during phase 3 studies were associated with minor increases in RA symptoms that resolved following retreatment. This analysis provides useful information for clinicians, as temporary interruption of antirheumatic therapy is common in the care of patients with RA.

1596,32414547,Efficacy of botulinum toxin for treating a gummy smile.,"INTRODUCTION
This study was conducted to investigate the efficacy of botulinum toxin applied to the different muscles of patients who have excessive gingival display and to evaluate the return to baseline gingival exposure value.
METHODS
Twenty-eight patients who had a gummy smile of more than 2 mm were randomly divided into 2 groups. Botulinum toxin was administered equally to the left and right of the levator labii superioris alaeque nasi muscle of group 1 and the orbicularis oris site of group 2. Photographs were taken, and measurements were taken before injection and at 3 days, 15 days, 1 month, 4 months, 5 months, and 6 months after injection. The visual analogue scale was used to assess the level of satisfaction.
RESULTS
The average amount of visible gingiva in group 1 was 4.92 mm at the beginning of the treatment and 1.92 mm on the 15th day. In group 2, the average amount of visible gingiva was 4.58 mm at the beginning of treatment and 2.16 mm on the 15th day. In both treatment groups, it was determined that the measurements on the sixth month did not return to their initial values. The decrease in gingival appearances in group 1 was greater than in group 2. There was no significant difference between the groups in terms of return to baseline gingival exposure value.

1597,32414381,Results of caring and reaching for health (CARE): a cluster-randomized controlled trial assessing a worksite wellness intervention for child care staff.,"BACKGROUND
Child care workers are among the lowest paid US workers and experience a wide array of health concerns. The physical and mental demands of their job and the lack of employer-provided health-insurance increase health risks. The Caring and Reaching for Health (CARE) study evaluated a 6-month Healthy Lifestyles intervention targeting child care workers' physical activity (primary outcome), other health behaviors, and their workplace health environment.
METHODS
Eligible child care centers, defined as being in operation for at least 2 years and employing at least four staff, were enrolled into CARE's cluster-randomized trial. Centers and their child care staff were randomly assigned to either the Healthy Lifestyles (HL) intervention arm or the Healthy Finances (HF) attention control arm using a block randomization approach. Intervention components were delivered through in-person workshops, center-level displays, informational magazines, director coaching, electronic messaging, and an interactive website. Outcome measures were collected during center visits at baseline and immediately post-intervention by trained data collectors blinded to center arm assignment. Workers' physical activity was assessed with accelerometers, worn for 7 days. Secondary outcome measures included biometric assessments of health and fitness, web-based surveys about health behaviors, and an environmental audit of workplace supports for health. Multi-level linear mixed models assessed worker- and center-level changes in these outcomes.
RESULTS
Participants included 553 child care workers representing 56 centers (HL = 250 staff/28 centers, HF = 303 staff/28 centers). At 6 months, moderate-to-vigorous physical activity declined slightly in both arms (- 1.3 min/day, 95% CI: - 3.0, 0.3 in HL; - 1.9 min/day, 95% CI: - 3.3, - 0.5 in HF), but there was no significant group by time interaction. Several secondary outcomes for other health behaviors and workplace health environment showed improvements in favor of the intervention arm, yet differences did not remain statistically significant after adjustment for multiple comparisons.
CONCLUSIONS
While the Healthy Lifestyles intervention did not improve health behaviors or the workplace health environment, results confirmed the pressing need to focus on the health of child care workers. Future interventions should focus on prevalent health issues (e.g., weight, stress), include both high-tech and high-touch intervention strategies, and address work conditions or other social determinants of health (e.g. wages) as a means of improving the health of these essential workers.

1598,32414406,Sustained effects of faculty leadership development modules for clinical instructors of core competences education in Taiwan: a four-year explanatory case study.,"BACKGROUND
The Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) core competencies (CC) in general medicine-based primary care are essential for junior medical trainees. In this country, a regular faculty development (FD) program aimed at training faculty in instructing (teaching and assessing) these CC had operated. However, leadership was not emphasized. In a new intervention module, the roles and associated responsibilities of clinical instructors to conduct, design, and lead CC-based education were emphasis.
AIMS
This follow-up explanatory case study compares the effectiveness of intervention module with that of the previous regular module.
METHODS
The regular group (n = 28) comprised clinical instructors who participated in the FD module during the 2013-2014 year while the intervention group (n = 28) was composed of 2015-2016 participants. Prior to the formal (hands-on) training, participants in the intervention group were asked to study the online materials of the regular module. These participants then received a 30-h hands-on training in conducting, designing, and leading skills. Finally, they prepared a 10-h reflective end-of-module presentation of their real-world practices.
RESULTS
Following the training, a higher degree improvement in participants self-reported familiarity with CC education, self-confidence in their ability to deliver CC education and sustained involve CC education were noted among the intervention FD group, compared with the regular FD group. In the intervention group, senior academicians (associate and full professor) are more substantially involved in designing and leading CC-based courses than junior academicians (lecturers and assistant professors). Among non-teaching award winners of in the intervention FD group, the follow-up degree of sustained involvement in delivering, designing and leading CC-based courses was significantly higher than that of the regular group.

Malignant edema can be a life-threatening complication of large hemispheric infarction (LHI), and is often treated with osmotherapy. In this exploratory analysis of data from the GAMES-RP study, we hypothesized that patients receiving osmotherapy had symptomatic cerebral edema, and that treatment with intravenous (IV) glibenclamide would modify osmotherapy use as compared with placebo.
METHODS
GAMES-RP was a phase 2 multi-center prospective, double blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study in LHI. Patients were randomized to IV glibenclamide (e.g. IV glyburide) or placebo. Cerebral edema therapies included osmotherapy and/or decompressive craniectomy at the discretion of the treating team. Total bolus osmotherapy dosing was quantified by ""osmolar load"". Radiographic edema was defined by dichotomizing midline shift at 24 h. Clinical changes were defined as any increase in NIHSS1a.
RESULTS
Osmotherapy was administered to 40 of the 77 patients at a median of 39 [27-55] h after stroke onset. The median baseline DWI lesion volume was significantly larger in the osmotherapy treated group (167 [146-211] mL v. 139 [112-170] mL; P=0.046). Adjudicated malignant edema (75% v. 16%; P<0.001) was more common in the osmotherapy treated group. There were no differences in the proportion of patients receiving osmotherapy or the median total osmolar load between treatment arms. Most patients (76%) had a decrease in consciousness (NIHSS item 1A ≥1) on the day they began receiving osmotherapy.

1603,32414817,Broader impacts of an intervention to transform school environments on student behaviour and school functioning: post hoc analyses from the INCLUSIVE cluster randomised controlled trial.,"BACKGROUND
We have previously reported benefits for reduced bullying, smoking, alcohol and other drug use and mental health from a trial of 'Learning Together', an intervention that aimed to modify school environments and implement restorative practice and a social and emotional skill curriculum.
OBJECTIVES
To conduct post hoc theory-driven analyses of broader impacts.
DESIGN
Cluster randomised trial.
SETTINGS
40 state secondary schools in southern England.
PARTICIPANTS
Students aged 11/12 years at baseline.
OUTCOMES
Student self-reported measures at 24 and 36 months of: cyberbullying victimisation and perpetration; observations of other students perpetrating aggressive behaviours at school; own perpetration of aggressive behaviours in and outside school; perceived lack of safety at school; participation in school disciplinary procedures; truancy and e-cigarette use.
RESULTS
We found evidence of multiple impacts on other health (reduced e-cigarette use, cyberbullying perpetration, perpetration of aggressive behaviours) and educational (reduced participation in school disciplinary procedures and truancy) outcomes.
CONCLUSION
These analyses suggested that the intervention was effective in bringing about a broader range of beneficial outcomes, adding to the evidence that the intervention is a promising approach to promote adolescent health via an intervention that is attractive to schools.

1604,32414888,Deep neuromuscular block improves angiographic image quality during endovascular coiling of unruptured cerebral aneurysm: a randomized clinical trial.,"BACKGROUND
Neuromuscular block (NMB) used during general anesthesia induces transient skeletal muscle paralysis, but patient movements during endovascular coiling still occur to some degree. Compared with moderate NMB, deep NMB may further improve the intervention condition during endovascular coiling for unruptured cerebral aneurysms; however, little research has focused on the angiographic image quality.
METHODS
This prospective, randomized, double-blind clinical trial included 58 patients treated for unruptured cerebral aneurysms with endovascular coiling under general anesthesia. Patients were randomly allocated to either the deep NMB group (post-tetanic count 1 or 2) or the moderate NMB group (train-of-four 1 or 2). The primary outcome was the proportion of patients with a satisfactory intervention condition assessed by surgeons after the procedure using a 5-point intervention condition rating scale (ICRS) from 1 (unable to obtain image) to 5 (optimal); ICRS 5 was defined as satisfactory.
RESULTS
There were significantly more cases of satisfactory intervention condition in the deep NMB group than in the moderate NMB group (82.1% vs 51.7%, p=0.015). The frequency of each ICRS score was significantly different between the groups (ICRS 5/4/3/2/1: 23/5/0/0/0 vs 15/9/2/3/0, p=0.035). The incidence of major patient movement requiring rescue muscle relaxant was 10.3% in the moderate NMB group and 0% in the deep NMB group (p=0.237). The drugs used to maintain hemodynamic stability were not significantly different between the two groups.
CONCLUSIONS
Deep NMB improves the intervention condition during endovascular coiling by improving the image quality.",2020,"The frequency of each ICRS score was significantly different between the groups (ICRS 5/4/3/2/1: 23/5/0/0/0 vs 15/9/2/3/0, p=0.035).","['58 patients treated for unruptured cerebral aneurysms with endovascular coiling under general anesthesia', 'endovascular coiling of unruptured cerebral aneurysm']","['Deep neuromuscular block', 'Deep NMB', 'Neuromuscular block (NMB', 'deep NMB group (post-tetanic count 1 or 2) or the moderate NMB']","['hemodynamic stability', 'angiographic image quality', 'proportion of patients with a satisfactory intervention condition assessed by surgeons after the procedure using a 5-point intervention condition rating scale (ICRS', 'frequency of each ICRS score', 'satisfactory intervention condition', 'incidence of major patient movement requiring rescue muscle relaxant']","[{'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patient'}, {'cui': 'C0332154', 'cui_str': 'Received therapy or drug for'}, {'cui': 'C0155730', 'cui_str': 'Cerebral aneurysm, nonruptured'}, {'cui': 'C1719976', 'cui_str': 'Under general anesthesia'}]","[{'cui': 'C0205125', 'cui_str': 'Deep'}, {'cui': 'C0235062', 'cui_str': 'Induction of neuromuscular blockade'}, {'cui': 'C0439745', 'cui_str': 'Grouped'}, {'cui': 'C0428701', 'cui_str': 'Post-tetanic count'}, {'cui': 'C0205081', 'cui_str': 'Moderate'}]","[{'cui': 'C0019010', 'cui_str': 'Hemodynamics'}, {'cui': 'C0205360', 'cui_str': 'Stable'}, {'cui': 'C1846009', 'cui_str': 'Intrauterine growth restriction, metaphyseal dysplasia, adrenal hypoplasia congenita, and genital anomaly syndrome'}, {'cui': 'C0332306', 'cui_str': 'Quality'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patient'}, {'cui': 'C0205410', 'cui_str': 'Sufficient'}, {'cui': 'C0184661', 'cui_str': 'Procedure'}, {'cui': 'C0009647', 'cui_str': 'Conditioning'}, {'cui': 'C0582175', 'cui_str': 'Surgeon'}, {'cui': 'C0025664', 'cui_str': 'methods'}, {'cui': 'C0175659', 'cui_str': 'Scale'}, {'cui': 'C0237630', 'cui_str': 'Stimulus frequency'}, {'cui': 'C0449820', 'cui_str': 'Score'}, {'cui': 'C0021149', 'cui_str': 'Incidence'}, {'cui': 'C0205082', 'cui_str': 'Severe'}, {'cui': 'C0026649', 'cui_str': 'Movement'}, {'cui': 'C0026827', 'cui_str': 'Decreased muscle tone'}]",58.0,0.137455,"The frequency of each ICRS score was significantly different between the groups (ICRS 5/4/3/2/1: 23/5/0/0/0 vs 15/9/2/3/0, p=0.035).","[{'ForeName': 'Bo Young', 'Initials': 'BY', 'LastName': 'Kim', 'Affiliation': 'Graduate School, Department of Medicine, Kyung Hee University, Seoul, Republic of Korea.'}, {'ForeName': 'Sung Hoon', 'Initials': 'SH', 'LastName': 'Chung', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Anesthesiology and Pain Medicine, Seoul National University Bundang Hospital, Seongnam, Republic of Korea.'}, {'ForeName': 'Seong-Joo', 'Initials': 'SJ', 'LastName': 'Park', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Anesthesiology and Pain Medicine, Seoul National University Bundang Hospital, Seongnam, Republic of Korea.'}, {'ForeName': 'Sung-Hee', 'Initials': 'SH', 'LastName': 'Han', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Anesthesiology and Pain Medicine, Seoul National University Bundang Hospital, Seongnam, Republic of Korea.'}, {'ForeName': 'O-Ki', 'Initials': 'OK', 'LastName': 'Kwon', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Neurosurgery, Seoul National University Bundang Hospital, Seongnam, Republic of Korea.'}, {'ForeName': 'Jun-Young', 'Initials': 'JY', 'LastName': 'Jung', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Anesthesiology and Pain Medicine, College of Medicine, Kyung Hee University, Seoul, Republic of Korea.'}, {'ForeName': 'Jin-Hee', 'Initials': 'JH', 'LastName': 'Kim', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Anesthesiology and Pain Medicine, Seoul National University Bundang Hospital, Seongnam, Republic of Korea anesing1@snu.ac.kr.'}]",Journal of neurointerventional surgery,['10.1136/neurintsurg-2020-015947']

1607,32415365,Tranexamic acid safely reduces hidden blood loss in patients undergoing intertrochanteric fracture surgery: a randomized controlled trial.,"PURPOSE
To investigate the efficacy and safety of intravenous tranexamic acid (IV-TXA) in patients undergoing intertrochanteric fracture surgery.
METHODS
A total of 122 patients were included in this double-blinded trial and equally randomized to receive 1 g of IV-TXA or normal saline 10 min before incision and 3 h later. The primary efficacy outcome was calculated hidden blood loss (HBL). The secondary efficacy outcome was allogeneic erythrocyte transfusion rate during hospitalization. Safety outcome was a composite of thromboembolic events including deep venous thrombosis (DVT) up to 90 days. A meta-analysis combining this study with previous randomized controlled trials in hip fracture surgery (total sample size: 1112 patients) was also conducted.
RESULTS
The mean HBL in TXA group (640.96 ± 421.63 ml) was significantly lower than that in placebo group (1010.11 ± 398.96 ml, P < 0.001). The rate of erythrocyte transfusions was 29.5% in TXA group and 60.7% in placebo group (P = 0.001). The incidence of thromboembolic events at 90 days was 4.9% in TXA group and 1.6% in placebo group (P = 0.619). The updated meta-analysis showed that IV-TXA significantly reduced erythrocyte transfusion in hip fracture surgery (risk ratio 0.60, 95% confidence intervals 0.53-0.68), and IV-TXA caused no increased risk of thromboembolic events (risk difference 0.01, 95% confidence intervals - 0.02-0.04).
CONCLUSION
IV-TXA could effectively reduce the HBL and allogeneic erythrocyte transfusion requirements in patients undergoing intertrochanteric fracture surgery without an increase of thromboembolic events including DVT.

1608,32414901,Methylphenidate Effects on Cortical Thickness in Children and Adults with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder: A Randomized Clinical Trial.,"BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE
Although methylphenidate is frequently used to treat children with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder, it is currently unknown how methylphenidate affects brain development. In a randomized controlled trial, we investigated whether the cortical effects of methylphenidate are modulated by age.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
Between June 1, 2011, and June 15, 2015, we conducted a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial (Effects of Psychotropic Drugs on Developing Brain-Methylphenidate) in 99 males with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (according to Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, 4th Edition , criteria) from referral centers in the greater Amsterdam area in the Netherlands. The trial was registered on March 24, 2011 (identifier NL34509.000.10) and subsequently at the Netherlands National Trial Register (identifier NTR3103). Participants (first enrolled October 13, 2011) were 10-12 years or 23-40 years of age and randomized to treatment with either methylphenidate or a placebo for 16 weeks. Our main outcome was a change in cortical thickness in predefined ROIs as measured by MR imaging pre- and posttreatment.
RESULTS
We observed a time × medication × age interaction ( F [1,88.825] = 4.316, P < .05) for the right medial cortex ROI, where methylphenidate treatment yielded less cortical thinning in children, but not in adults or the placebo groups.
CONCLUSIONS
Our finding that the effects of methylphenidate on right medial cortical thickness differ between children and adults infers that the drug affects gray matter development in this brain region. This warrants replication in larger groups with longer follow-up to determine whether this effect can also be observed in other cortical brain regions and whether it may have long-term consequences.",2020,"We observed a time × medication × age interaction ( F [1,88.825] = 4.316, P < .05) for the right medial cortex ROI, where methylphenidate treatment yielded less cortical thinning in children, but not in adults or the placebo groups.

This research aimed at finding out the effects of TT on comfort and anxiety of nursing home residents. This research is a quasi-experimental randomized control study which was conducted to investigate the impact of TT on the comfort and anxiety of older people living in a nursing home in İzmir, Turkey, between August 2015 and 2016. The sample of the study was formed from 60 older people who fitted the selection criteria, 30 in the experimental group and 30 in the control group. Data were collected using a General Comfort Questionnaire (GCQ) and a Situational Anxiety Inventory (STAI). A statistically significant difference was found between the measurements of the TT and control groups. According to the results, TT reduces anxiety and increases the comfort level of older people (p < 0.05). Considering the positive results of TT on comfort levels and anxiety, it can be recommended as an independent nursing practice.",2020,"According to the results, TT reduces anxiety and increases the comfort level of older people (p < 0.05).","['Nursing Home Residents', 'nursing home residents', '60 older people who fitted the selection criteria, 30 in the experimental group and 30 in the control group', 'older people living in a nursing home in İzmir, Turkey, between August 2015 and 2016']",['TT'],"['comfort level of older people', 'General Comfort Questionnaire (GCQ) and a Situational Anxiety Inventory (STAI']","[{'cui': 'C0028661', 'cui_str': 'Nursing personnel'}, {'cui': 'C0442519', 'cui_str': 'Domestic'}, {'cui': 'C1320928', 'cui_str': 'Resident physician'}, {'cui': 'C0580836', 'cui_str': 'Old'}, {'cui': 'C0027361', 'cui_str': 'Person'}, {'cui': 'C0036572', 'cui_str': 'Seizure'}, {'cui': 'C0242801', 'cui_str': 'Selection Criteria'}, {'cui': 'C0439745', 'cui_str': 'Grouped'}, {'cui': 'C0009932', 'cui_str': 'Control Groups'}, {'cui': 'C0425205', 'cui_str': 'Lives in a nursing home'}, {'cui': 'C0041400', 'cui_str': 'Turkey - country'}]","[{'cui': 'C0152054', 'cui_str': 'Touch'}]","[{'cui': 'C0517225', 'cui_str': 'Comfort level'}, {'cui': 'C0580836', 'cui_str': 'Old'}, {'cui': 'C0027361', 'cui_str': 'Person'}, {'cui': 'C0205246', 'cui_str': 'Generalized'}, {'cui': 'C0034394', 'cui_str': 'Questionnaires'}, {'cui': 'C0262377', 'cui_str': 'Situational anxiety'}, {'cui': 'C0021941', 'cui_str': 'Inventories'}]",,0.0398354,"According to the results, TT reduces anxiety and increases the comfort level of older people (p < 0.05).","[{'ForeName': 'Fethiye Yelkin', 'Initials': 'FY', 'LastName': 'Alp', 'Affiliation': 'Dokuz Eylul University, Nursing Faculty, Balcova, İzmir, Turkey. fethiyeyalp@gmail.com.'}, {'ForeName': 'Sebnem Cinar', 'Initials': 'SC', 'LastName': 'Yucel', 'Affiliation': 'Ege University, Nursing Faculty, Bornova, İzmir, Turkey.'}]",Journal of religion and health,['10.1007/s10943-020-01025-4']

The participants in one study group received opioids only, while those in the other group received opioids and pregabalin. Thirty-nine patients were analyzed in the study (20 patients in the opioid-only group and 19 in the pregabalin add-on group). The LANSS, neck pain, and arm pain scores in the pregabalin add-on group improved significantly compared with those in the opioid-only group after the first 4 weeks (p = 0.005, 0.001 and 0.035, respectively), but there was no significant difference between the two groups during the next 4 weeks (p = 0.615, 0.377 and 0.716, respectively). There was no significant difference in the neck disability index and EuroQol-5Dimension scores after four weeks and eight weeks of follow-up. Adverse events were reported by four patients (20.0%) in the opioid-only group and five patients (26.3%) in the pregabalin add-on group (p = 0.716). However, over time, the occurrence of side effects and dropouts increased in the pregabalin add-on group. This exploratory pilot study suggests that pregabalin add-on treatment is more efficient than the use of opioids alone at the beginning of NP treatment in cervical myelopathy patients.

This report discusses the development of the first group parent intervention targeting behaviors and anxiety in children with ASD, across the spectrum of cognitive and language ability. 'Predictive Parenting' was developed from the clinical observation (and emerging evidence base) that children with ASD struggle with 'prediction' and anticipating change.

1614,32415471,Effectiveness of functional exercises on pain and sleep quality in patients with primary dysmenorrhea: a randomized clinical trial.,"PURPOSE
Primary dysmenorrhea is the most common gynecological problem in young women and adolescents. Exercise therapy provides positive effects on women with primary dysmenorrhea. The aim of the study was to investigate the effects of a combined exercise program on pain, sleep and menstrual symptoms in patients with primary dysmenorrhea.
METHODS
The study is a randomized controlled study. The study included 28 sedentary individuals. The participants were assigned to two groups as the exercise (mean age 22.9 ± 2.0 years) and the control (mean age 23.1 ± 1.8 years) groups. The exercise protocol was carried out with the exercise group three times a week for eight weeks. The Visual Analog Scale (VAS) was used for assessing the intensity of pain. The Menstrual Symptom Questionnaire (MSQ) and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) were used for evaluating menstrual symptoms and sleep quality, respectively. The study was registered on the Clinical Trials website by the number NCT03625375.
RESULTS
The comparisons between the groups revealed statistically significant differences in abdominal pain severity, MSQ total score and the subscale scores of negative outcomes and management methods (p < 0.05). The intragroup comparisons of the exercise group demonstrated that the scores of the low back pain and abdominal pain and the MSQ and PSQI scores were found to be significantly different after the 8-week program (p < 0.05).

The combined exercise therapy is an effective way to manage symptoms associated with primary dysmenorrhea.",2020,"The comparisons between the groups revealed statistically significant differences in abdominal pain severity, MSQ total score and the subscale scores of negative outcomes and management methods (p < 0.05).","['young women and adolescents', 'patients with primary dysmenorrhea', 'women with primary dysmenorrhea', '28 sedentary individuals']","['functional exercises', 'combined exercise program', 'Exercise therapy', 'combined exercise therapy']","['Visual Analog Scale (VAS', 'Menstrual Symptom Questionnaire (MSQ) and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI', 'low back pain and abdominal pain and the MSQ and PSQI scores', 'pain, sleep and menstrual symptoms', 'abdominal pain severity, MSQ total score and the subscale scores of negative outcomes and management methods', 'menstrual symptoms and sleep quality', 'pain and sleep quality']","[{'cui': 'C0332239', 'cui_str': 'Young'}, {'cui': 'C0043210', 'cui_str': 'Woman'}, {'cui': 'C0205653', 'cui_str': 'Adolescent'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patient'}, {'cui': 'C0149875', 'cui_str': 'Primary dysmenorrhea'}, {'cui': 'C0205254', 'cui_str': 'Inactive'}, {'cui': 'C0027361', 'cui_str': 'Person'}]","[{'cui': 'C0454284', 'cui_str': 'Functional exercises'}, {'cui': 'C0205195', 'cui_str': 'Combined'}, {'cui': 'C0015259', 'cui_str': 'Exercise'}, {'cui': 'C0018106', 'cui_str': 'Government Programs'}, {'cui': 'C0452240', 'cui_str': 'Exercises'}]","[{'cui': 'C0042815', 'cui_str': 'Visual analog pain scale'}, {'cui': 'C0025344', 'cui_str': 'Menstruation'}, {'cui': 'C0683368', 'cui_str': 'symptoms'}, {'cui': 'C0034394', 'cui_str': 'Questionnaires'}, {'cui': 'C3697468', 'cui_str': 'Pittsburgh sleep quality index'}, {'cui': 'C0024031', 'cui_str': 'Low back pain'}, {'cui': 'C0000737', 'cui_str': 'Abdominal pain'}, {'cui': 'C4545801', 'cui_str': 'Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index score'}, {'cui': 'C0030193', 'cui_str': 'Pain'}, {'cui': 'C0037313', 'cui_str': 'Sleep'}, {'cui': 'C0439793', 'cui_str': 'Severities'}, {'cui': 'C0439810', 'cui_str': 'Total'}, {'cui': 'C0449820', 'cui_str': 'Score'}, {'cui': 'C0459443', 'cui_str': 'Subscale score'}, {'cui': 'C0205160', 'cui_str': 'Negative'}, {'cui': 'C1274040', 'cui_str': 'Result'}, {'cui': 'C0001554', 'cui_str': 'Administration'}, {'cui': 'C0025663', 'cui_str': 'Method'}, {'cui': 'C0424563', 'cui_str': 'Quality of sleep'}]",28.0,0.0352192,"The comparisons between the groups revealed statistically significant differences in abdominal pain severity, MSQ total score and the subscale scores of negative outcomes and management methods (p < 0.05).","[{'ForeName': 'Berkiye', 'Initials': 'B', 'LastName': 'Kirmizigil', 'Affiliation': 'Faculty of Health Sciences, Department of Physiotherapy and Rehabilitation, Eastern Mediterranean University, Famagusta, North Cyprus, via Mersin-10, Turkey. berkiye.kirmizigil@emu.edu.tr.'}, {'ForeName': 'Cisel', 'Initials': 'C', 'LastName': 'Demiralp', 'Affiliation': 'Faculty of Health Sciences, Department of Physiotherapy and Rehabilitation, Eastern Mediterranean University, Famagusta, North Cyprus, via Mersin-10, Turkey.'}]",Archives of gynecology and obstetrics,['10.1007/s00404-020-05579-2']
1615,32415610,Randomized clinical trial of a novel donor-derived cfDNA test to detect rejection in CPV-simulated renal transplant patients.,"PURPOSE
Five-year kidney graft loss currently stands at about 30%. We evaluate the clinical utility of a blood test measuring donor-derived cell-free DNA that detects rejection earlier and, potentially, improves diagnostic and therapeutic accuracy.
METHODS
In a randomized controlled experiment, we measured the clinical practice of 175 practicing nephrologists, both with and without the use of dd-cfDNA testing. Providers cared for six simulated post-renal transplant patient cases whose ages ranged from 30 to 75 years and were 3-24 months post-transplant with typical presentations.
RESULTS
154 nephrologists completed two rounds of simulated cases. At baseline, the study arms performed similarly, demonstrating no significant differences either in primary diagnosis (p = 0.853), decisions to biopsy or refer to transplant center (p = 1.000), or therapeutic management (p = 0.488). After introduction of the dd-cfDNA test, intervention nephrologists were more likely to arrive at the diagnosis of rejection (OR 4.00, 95% CI 1.93-8.30), make a correct decision on biopsy/transplant center referral (OR 11.07, 95% CI 4.87-25.16), and properly adjust therapeutic management (OR 2.37, 95% CI 1.07-5.24).

1616,32415555,Pulmonary vein isolation using second-generation single-shot devices: not all the same?,"INTRODUCTION
Single-shot devices have been developed to simplify pulmonary vein isolation (PVI). Randomized studies of the second-generation cryoballoon (CB 2nd) demonstrated excellent results. There are limited data comparing results of circular pulmonary vein ablation catheter (PVAC) with conventional RF ablation or CB for PVI.
OBJECTIVE
Using a sequential registry cohort and a prospective randomized study, we aimed to compare the acute and long-term results of CB 2nd and PVAC Gold.
METHODS
In the registry, consecutive patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AF) undergoing their first PVI were included. The preferred method used was PVAC Gold in 2014 and CB 2nd in 2015. Subsequently, a randomized study (PVAC vs. CB 2nd) was performed. Ablation success was measured as freedom of AF or atrial tachycardias (AT) off antiarrhythmic drugs.
RESULTS
In the registry cohort, PVAC Gold was used in 60 patients and CB 2nd in 56 patients (age 66 ± 11 years, 52% male, LAD 43 ± 6). In the randomized study, 20 patients were treated with PVAC Gold and 22 with CB 2nd (age 67 ± 9; 43% men, LAD 40 ± 7 mm). During a mean follow up of 13.2 ± 3.6 months, success was 54% in PVAC Gold patients and 81% in CB 2nd cases (p = 0.001). In the randomized study 12 months success was 50% versus 86%, p < 0.05. Complications occurred rare in both groups.

1617,32415664,Neuronal Biomarkers in Predicting Neurodevelopmental Outcome in Term Babies with Perinatal Asphyxia.,"OBJECTIVE
To assess whether serum levels of neuronal biomarkers (S100 calcium-binding protein B and Neuron specific enolase) correlate with the neurodevelopmental outcome of term neonates at 18 mo who had hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy and underwent therapeutic hypothermia.
METHODS
This randomized controlled trial was conducted in a tertiary care teaching hospital, south India. There were 162 term infants with moderate to severe hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy who were randomized into 2 groups (Group A and B). Neonates in Group A and B received normothermia and therapeutic hypothermia respectively. Serum levels of neuronal biomarkers were estimated at 0, 24 (±1) and 72 (±1) h after birth using sandwich ELISA in both groups. All neonates were carefully monitored till discharge. Infants who survived the neonatal period were followed up in the high risk clinic for 18 mo and neurodevelopmental assessment was done using Developmental Assessment Scale for Indian Infants (DASII). Neurodevelopmental outcomes between the two groups were compared using Chi square test and neuronal biomarker levels between the groups were compared using Mann Whitney test.
RESULTS
The baseline maternal and neonatal characteristics in both groups were comparable. There was statistically insignificant lesser mortality in therapeutic hypothermia group compared to normothermia group with Risk Ratio (RR): 0.82 (28.2% vs. 34.5%, 95% CI: 0.52-1.29, p = 0.38). Among the survivors, children in therapeutic hypothermia group had better motor and mental scores compared to those in normothermia group at 18 mo. There was no significant correlation between S100B and Neuron specific enolase levels and neurodevelopmental outcome.

In IXORA-S, randomised patients received IXE (N = 136) or UST (N = 166) per label for 52 weeks. Eighty-four (61.8%) and 105 (63.3%) of the patients treated with IXE or UST, respectively, had baseline fingernail psoriasis (Nail Psoriasis Severity Index [NAPSI] > 0); of these, 54 (64.3%) and 63 (60.0%) patients, respectively, had significant baseline fingernail psoriasis (defined as NAPSI ≥ 16 with ≥ 4 fingernails involved). The proportion of patients achieving NAPSI = 0, a NAPSI score change from baseline and correlations in Psoriasis Area of Severity Index (PASI) and NAPSI improvement over 52 weeks were examined.
RESULTS
Progressive improvement occurred in both treatment groups over 52 weeks. Statistically significantly more patients achieved NAPSI = 0 with IXE versus UST by week 16-20, and the proportions continued to increase through week 52 among patients with baseline nail psoriasis (61.9 vs. 28.6%, respectively; P < 0.001), including those with significant nail psoriasis (57.4 vs. 17.5%, respectively; P < 0.001). Similar results were observed for NAPSI score improvement from baseline to week 52. Interestingly, the presence of nail psoriasis was associated with lower skin response with UST but not with IXE.
CONCLUSIONS
Ixekizumab was superior to UST in the clearance of nail psoriasis, with earlier improvement continued through 52 weeks regardless of baseline nail severity.

1619,32415720,"The First-in-Human Study of CNTO 7160, an Anti-Interleukin-33 Receptor Monoclonal Antibody, in Healthy Subjects and Patients with Asthma or Atopic Dermatitis.","AIMS
Assess safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD), and immunogenicity of CNTO 7160, an anti-interleukin-33 receptor (IL-33R) monoclonal antibody, in healthy subjects and patients with asthma or atopic dermatitis (AD).
METHODS
In Part 1 of this Phase I, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study, healthy subjects (n=68) received single ascending intravenous (IV) CNTO 7160 dose (0.001 to 10 mg kg -1 ) or placebo. In Part 2, patients with mild asthma (n=24) or mild AD (n=15) received three biweekly IV CNTO 7160 doses (3 or 10 mg kg -1 ) or placebo.
RESULTS
CNTO 7160 was generally well tolerated, with one serious adverse event of severe cellulitis reported (AD, CNTO 7160 3 mg kg -1 ). CNTO 7160 exhibited non-linear PK (0.01 to 10 mg kg -1 ). Mean clearance decreased with increasing dose (2.43 to 18.03 mL day -1 kg -1 ). CNTO 7160 PK was similar between healthy subjects and patients with asthma or AD (3 or 10 mg kg -1 ). Free sIL-33R suppression was rapid and dose-dependent. Ex-vivo inhibition of p38 phosphorylation of basophils was dose-dependent (1 to 10 mg kg -1 ) and sustained inhibition (≥75%) was observed at higher doses (3 or 10 mg kg -1 ). PK/PD modelling and simulation suggests that 1 mg/kg IV every 2 weeks provides adequate systemic drug exposure for sustained inhibition of p38 phosphorylation of basophils. Despite confirmation of target engagement, no apparent CNTO 7160 clinical activity was observed in patients (asthma or AD).

1620,32415684,"Clopidogrel, a CYP2C8 inhibitor, causes a clinically relevant increase in the systemic exposure to the active metabolite of selexipag in healthy subjects.","AIMS
Selexipag is a prostacyclin receptor agonist approved for the treatment of pulmonary arterial hypertension. Cytochrome P450 (CYP) 2C8 is involved in the metabolism of selexipag and its active metabolite, ACT-333679. This study evaluated the interaction of selexipag and clopidogrel, a CYP2C8 inhibitor.
METHODS
The study had a two-treatment, one-sequence, crossover design. Pharmacokinetics (PK) and CYP2C8 genotype were assessed in healthy male subjects administered selexipag (200 μg twice daily (b.i.d.)) alone or with clopidogrel (300 mg single dose or 75 mg once daily (o.d.)). PK modelling and simulation were conducted to support dosing recommendations.
RESULTS
Clopidogrel had a comparatively small effect on selexipag (< 1.5-fold difference in any PK variable). For ACT-333679, the major contributor to the drug effect, the area under the plasma concentration-time curve during a dose interval (AUC τ ) and the maximum plasma concentration (C max ) increased 2.25-fold (90% confidence interval (CI) 2.06, 2.46) and 1.69-fold (90% CI 1.55, 1.84), respectively with clopidogrel 300 mg and 2.70-fold (90% CI 2.45, 2.96) and 1.90-fold (90% CI 1.72, 2.11), respectively with clopidogrel 75 mg. The effect of clopidogrel on selexipag and ACT-333679 exposure was comparable for all identified CYP2C8 genotypes. PK simulations predicted comparable exposure to ACT-333679 following selexipag 400 μg b.i.d., 400 μg o.d. in combination with clopidogrel 75 mg o.d and 200 μg b.i.d. with clopidogrel 75 mg o.d.
CONCLUSION
Results suggest that ACT-333679 exposure can be maintained within the therapeutic range by reducing selexipag dosing frequency to o.d. or dose to half, when selexipag is coadministered with clopidogrel.",2020,The effect of clopidogrel on selexipag and ACT-333679 exposure was comparable for all identified CYP2C8 genotypes.,"['pulmonary arterial hypertension', 'healthy male subjects administered', 'healthy subjects']","['selexipag', 'selexipag and clopidogrel, a CYP2C8 inhibitor', 'clopidogrel', 'clopidogrel 75 mg o.d', 'Clopidogrel']","['Pharmacokinetics (PK) and CYP2C8 genotype', 'maximum plasma concentration (C max ', 'plasma concentration-time curve', 'selexipag']","[{'cui': 'C2973725', 'cui_str': 'Pulmonary arterial hypertension'}, {'cui': 'C0086582', 'cui_str': 'Male'}, {'cui': 'C1533734', 'cui_str': 'Administration'}, {'cui': 'C1708335', 'cui_str': 'Healthy Participants'}]","[{'cui': 'C2000145', 'cui_str': 'selexipag'}, {'cui': 'C0070166', 'cui_str': 'clopidogrel'}, {'cui': 'C3850061', 'cui_str': 'P450 CYP2C8 Inhibitors'}, {'cui': 'C1124675', 'cui_str': 'clopidogrel 75 MG'}]","[{'cui': 'C0031327', 'cui_str': 'Drug Kinetics'}, {'cui': 'C1382144', 'cui_str': 'Cytochrome p450 CYP2C8 enzyme'}, {'cui': 'C0017431', 'cui_str': 'Genotype'}, {'cui': 'C0806909', 'cui_str': 'Max'}, {'cui': 'C0032105', 'cui_str': 'blood plasma'}, {'cui': 'C0004268', 'cui_str': 'Attention'}, {'cui': 'C0127092', 'cui_str': 'Max protein'}, {'cui': 'C0040223', 'cui_str': 'Time'}, {'cui': 'C0205134', 'cui_str': 'Curved'}, {'cui': 'C2000145', 'cui_str': 'selexipag'}]",,0.0966444,The effect of clopidogrel on selexipag and ACT-333679 exposure was comparable for all identified CYP2C8 genotypes.,"[{'ForeName': 'Lene Nygaard', 'Initials': 'LN', 'LastName': 'Axelsen', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Clinical Pharmacology, Actelion Pharmaceuticals Ltd, Allschwil, Switzerland.'}, {'ForeName': 'Italo', 'Initials': 'I', 'LastName': 'Poggesi', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Clinical Pharmacology, Actelion Pharmaceuticals Ltd, Allschwil, Switzerland.'}, {'ForeName': 'Freya', 'Initials': 'F', 'LastName': 'Rasschaert', 'Affiliation': 'Clinical Pharmacology Unit, Janssen Pharmaceutica NV, Merksem, Belgium.'}, {'ForeName': 'Juan Jose', 'Initials': 'JJ', 'LastName': 'Perez Ruixo', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Clinical Pharmacology, Actelion Pharmaceuticals Ltd, Allschwil, Switzerland.'}, {'ForeName': 'Shirin', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Bruderer', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Clinical Pharmacology, Actelion Pharmaceuticals Ltd, Allschwil, Switzerland.'}]",British journal of clinical pharmacology,['10.1111/bcp.14365']

To test the efficacy of a brief intervention to reduce alcohol or drug use and to promote use of addiction services among patients seeking mental health treatment.
DESIGN AND SETTING
A multi-centre, longitudinal, two-group randomised controlled trial with randomisation within each of two mental health treatment systems located in Ventura County and Los Angeles County in California, USA PARTICIPANTS: A total of 718 patients (49.2% female) aged 18 and older with a mental health diagnosis and either a heavy drinking day or any use of cannabis or stimulants in the past 90 days.
INTERVENTION AND COMPARATOR
A motivation-based brief intervention with personalized feedback (Screening, Brief Intervention and Referral to Treatment (SBIRT) condition) (n=354) or a health education session (control condition) (n=364).
MEASUREMENTS
Primary outcomes included frequency of heavy drinking days, days of cannabis use and days of stimulant use at the primary endpoint 3 months post baseline. Secondary outcomes included frequency and abstinence from substance use out to a 12-month follow up and the use of addiction treatment services.
FINDINGS
Participants in the SBIRT condition had fewer heavy drinking days (odds ratio = 0.53; 95% CrI 0.48-0.6) and fewer days of stimulant use (odds ratio = 0.58; 95% CrI 0.50-0.66) at the 3-month follow-up compared with participants in the health education condition. Participants in the SBIRT condition did not comparatively reduce days of cannabis use at the 3-month follow-up (odds ratio = 0.93; 95% CrI 0.85-1.01). Secondary outcomes indicated sustained effects of SBIRT on reducing the frequency of heavy drinking days and days of stimulant use.

1622,32415802,The Effects of Canagliflozin compared to Sitagliptin on Cardiorespiratory Fitness in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus and Heart Failure with Reduced Ejection Fraction: Results of the CANA-HF Study.,"BACKGROUND
Canagliflozin reduces hospitalizations for heart failure (HF) in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Its effect on cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) and cardiac function in patients with established HF with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) is unknown.
METHODS
We conducted a double blinded randomized controlled trial of canagliflozin 100 mg or sitagliptin 100 mg daily for 12 weeks in 88 patients, and measured peak oxygen consumption (VO 2 ) and minute ventilation/carbon dioxide production (VE/VCO 2 ) slope (co-primary endpoints for repeated measure ANOVA time_x_group interaction), lean peak VO 2 , ventilatory anaerobic threshold (VAT), cardiac function and quality of life (ie, Minnesota Living with Heart Failure Questionnaire [MLHFQ]), at baseline and 12-week follow-up.
RESULTS
The study was terminated early due to the new guidelines recommending canagliflozin over sitagliptin in HF: 17 patients were assigned to canagliflozin and 19 to sitagliptin, total of 36 patients. There were no significant changes in peak VO 2 and VE/VCO 2 slope between the 2 groups (P = 0.083 and P = 0.98, respectively). Canagliflozin improved lean peak VO 2 (+2.4 mL•kg LM -1 •min -1 , P = 0.036), VAT (+1.5 mL•kg -1 •min -1 , P = 0.012), and VO 2 matched for respiratory exchange ratio (+2.4 mL•Kg -1 •min -1 , P = 0.002) compared to sitagliptin. Canagliflozin also reduced MLHFQ score (-12.1, P = 0.018).
CONCLUSIONS

1623,32415824,Effectiveness of yogic visual concentration (Trataka) on cognitive performance and anxiety among adolescents.,"Background Cognition is the mental process of acquiring knowledge, understanding senses and synchronizing all the electrical activity that is constantly received and generated through the eye. Purpose of the present study was to assess the effectiveness of yogic visual concentration (Trataka) on cognitive performance and anxiety among adolescents studying in selected schools at Chennai. Methodology This study was designed to assess cognitive performance and anxiety among students using quantitative approach. True Experimental study design was used for this study. Pretest assessment of cognitive performance and anxiety was done by standardized tools (Stroop color word test, Hamilton anxiety scale) for Experimental and Control groups. Intervention of yogic visual concentration (Trataka) was experimented in one group. Control group were kept on routine activities. Post test assessment of cognitive performance and anxiety by standardized tools was performed on experimental and control groups. The data were analyzed by descriptive statistics and inferential statistics. The 0.05 level of significance was used. Results A significant difference in the mean difference of color word score, color score, word score and inference score between the study and control groups at the level of p<0.0001 was observed. Results indicate an association in the cognitive performance (word) with background variables such as, gender, father's occupation in the study group during the post test and no association in the control group. There were no associations between anxiety cognitive performance (color and word) and demographic variables in both groups.

1625,31140654,Reduced burden of diabetes and improved quality of life: Experiences from unrestricted day-and-night hybrid closed-loop use in very young children with type 1 diabetes.,"OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the experiences of families with very young children aged 1 to 7 years (inclusive) with type 1 diabetes using day-and-night hybrid closed-loop insulin delivery.
METHODS
Parents/caregivers of 20 children aged 1 to 7 years with type 1 diabetes completed a closed-loop experience survey following two 3-week periods of unrestricted day-and-night hybrid closed-loop insulin therapy using Cambridge FlorenceM system at home. Benefits, limitations, and improvements of closed-loop technology were explored.
RESULTS
Responders reported reduced burden of diabetes management, less time spent managing diabetes, and improved quality of sleep with closed-loop. Ninety percent of the responders felt less worried about their child's glucose control using closed-loop. Size of study devices, battery performance and connectivity issues were identified as areas for improvement. Parents/caregivers wished for more options to input information to the system such as temporary glucose targets.

1626,32415846,Adjunctive sertraline for asymptomatic cryptococcal antigenemia: A randomized clinical trial.,"Cryptococcal antigen (CrAg) screening in HIV-infected persons with CD4 < 100 cells/µl can reduce meningitis and death, yet preemptive fluconazole therapy fails in ∼25%. Sertraline has in vitro and in vivo activity against Cryptococcus and is synergistic with fluconazole in mice. We evaluated the efficacy and safety of sertraline in asymptomatic cryptococcal antigenemia. We conducted a randomized trial of asymptomatic CrAg-positive Ugandans from November 2017 to February 2018. All subjects received WHO standard therapy of fluconazole 800 mg for 2 weeks, then 400 mg for 10 weeks, then 200 mg through 24 weeks. Participants were randomized to receive adjunctive sertraline or placebo, given in once-weekly escalating 100 mg/day doses up to 400 mg/day, which was then given for 8 weeks, then tapered. The primary endpoint was meningitis-free 6-month survival. The data and safety monitoring board halted the trial after 21 subjects were enrolled due to safety concerns. Meningitis-free 6-month survival occurred in 9 of 11 of placebo participants and 10 of 10 of sertraline participants. However, seven serious adverse events (SAEs) occurred (n = 4 sertraline group; n = 3 placebo group). Three SAEs in the sertraline group presented with psychosis and aggressive behavioral changes with one meeting Hunter's criteria for serotonin syndrome while receiving 200 mg/day sertraline.

1627,31566666,Combination gemcitabine plus S-1 versus gemcitabine plus cisplatin for advanced/recurrent biliary tract cancer: the FUGA-BT (JCOG1113) randomized phase III clinical trial.,"BACKGROUND
Gemcitabine plus cisplatin (GC) is the standard treatment of advanced biliary tract cancer (BTC); however, it causes nausea, vomiting, and anorexia, and requires hydration. Gemcitabine plus S-1 (GS) reportedly has equal to, or better, efficacy and an acceptable toxicity profile. We aimed to confirm the non-inferiority of GS to GC for patients with advanced/recurrent BTC in terms of overall survival (OS).
PATIENTS AND METHODS
We undertook a phase III randomized trial in 33 institutions in Japan. Eligibility criteria included chemotherapy-naïve patients with recurrent or unresectable BTC, an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group Performance Status of 0 - 1, and adequate organ function. The calculated sample size was 350 with a one-sided α of 5%, a power of 80%, and non-inferiority margin hazard ratio (HR) of 1.155. The primary end point was OS, while the secondary end points included progression-free survival (PFS), response rate (RR), adverse events (AEs), and clinically significant AEs defined as grade ≥2 fatigue, anorexia, nausea, vomiting, oral mucositis, or diarrhea.
RESULTS
Between May 2013 and March 2016, 354 patients were enrolled. GS was found to be non-inferior to GC [median OS: 13.4 months with GC and 15.1 months with GS, HR, 0.945; 90% confidence interval (CI), 0.78-1.15; P = 0.046 for non-inferiority]. The median PFS was 5.8 months with GC and 6.8 months with GS (HR 0.86; 95% CI 0.70-1.07). The RR was 32.4% with GC and 29.8% with GS. Both treatments were generally well-tolerated. Clinically significant AEs were observed in 35.1% of patients in the GC arm and 29.9% in the GS arm.
CONCLUSIONS
GS, which does not require hydration, should be considered a new, convenient standard of care option for patients with advanced/recurrent BTC.

1628,31147367,High prevalence of hyperuricaemia and its impact on non-valvular atrial fibrillation: the cross-sectional Guangzhou (China) Heart Study.,"OBJECTIVES
There are country and regional variations in the prevalence of hyperuricaemia (HUA). The prevalence of HUA and non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) in southern China is unknown.
DESIGN
A cross-sectional study.
SETTING AND PARTICIPANTS
A total of 11 488 permanent residents aged 35 or older from urban and rural areas of Guangzhou, China were enrolled. A questionnaire was used to compile each participant's demographic information and relevant epidemiological factors for HUA and NVAF. All participants were assessed using a panel of blood tests and single-lead 24-hour ECG.
MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES
HUA was defined as serum uric acid level >420 μmol/L in men and >360 μmol/L in women. NVAF was diagnosed as per guidelines.
RESULTS
The prevalence of HUA was 39.6% (44.8% in men and 36.7% in women), and 144 residents (1.25%) had NVAF. Prevalence of HUA increased with age in women but remained stably high in men. After adjusting for potential confounders, age, living in urban areas, alcohol consumption, central obesity, elevated fasting plasma glucose level, elevated blood pressure, lower high-density lipoprotein cholesterol level and elevated triglycerides level were associated with increased risk of HUA. Residents with HUA were at higher risk for NVAF. Serum uric acid level had a modest predictive value for NVAF in women but not men.
CONCLUSIONS
HUA was highly prevalent among citizens of southern China and was a predictor of NVAF among women.",2019,"Serum uric acid level had a modest predictive value for NVAF in women but not men.

Both PCT and CRP are known as valued biomarkers markers in prediction of Serious Bacterial Infections (SBI) in children. This experiment carried out to analyze the efficacy of cefotaxime combined with gamma globulins on neonatal sepsis and the effect on CRP and PCT. For this purpose, a total of 120 sepsis children were selected and randomly divided into observation and control groups. Children in the control group were treated with cefotaxime, while children in the observation group were treated with cefotaxime combined with gamma globulins. The two groups were compared in terms of the relative measures of efficacy, the total effective rate of treatment, the incidence of complications and serum CRP and PCT levels before and after treatment. The clinical measures of the observation group were all lower than those of the control group, and the total effective rate of the treatment was higher than that of the control group, while the incidence of complications was lower than that of the control group. In addition, before treatment, there was no difference in CRP and PCT between the two groups; after treatment, the above measures in the observation group were lower than those in the control group. It is concluded that Cefotaxime combined with gamma globulins in the treatment of neonatal sepsis has significant efficacy and is clinically more effective than cefotaxime monotherapy.

1630,31826368,Effect of exercise therapy combined with branched-chain amino acid supplementation on muscle strength in elderly women after total hip arthroplasty: a randomized controlled trial.,"BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES
Many patients develop a prolonged decrease of muscle strength after total hip arthroplasty (THA) despite their reconstructed hip joint. Physical exercise combined with branched-chain amino acid (BCAA) supplementation has been reported to improve muscle strength in elderly persons with sarcopenia. However, the effect of BCAA supplementation in patients after THA is unknown. This study examined the effects of BCAA supplementation combined with exercise therapy on the improvement of physical function in elderly patients after THA.
METHODS AND STUDY DESIGN
The subjects were 31 elderly women who underwent THA. The participants were randomly assigned to two groups: BCAA (n=18) and control (n=13). The combined therapy was carried out for one month after THA. For the exercise intervention, a 3-set physical exercise program was conducted. For the nutritional intervention, the participants consumed 3.4 g of BCAA supplement or 1.2 g of starch immediately after the exercise intervention.
RESULTS
BCAA supplementation combined with muscle strengthening exercises had a significant effect on knee extension strength of the contralateral side and on upper arm cross-sectional area. The improvement ratio of knee extension strength before and after intervention on the operated side was also significantly higher in the BCAA group.
CONCLUSIONS

1631,31826369,A randomized controlled trial of preoperative carbohydrate drinks on postoperative walking capacity in elective colorectal surgery.,"BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES
Routine overnight fasting may increase the risk of postoperative complications and delay postoperative recovery. Oral carbohydrate drinks have been shown to reduce glucose utilization and postoperative negative nitrogen balance while preserving muscle mass and strength. This randomized controlled trial aimed to examine whether preoperative oral carbohydrate drinks can enhance postoperative physical recovery in patients undergoing major colorectal surgery.
METHODS AND STUDY DESIGN
Seventy patients were randomly assigned to receive either a 12.5% oral carbohydrate drink or pure water. Patients in both groups received 800- mL of one of the drinks on the evening before surgery, and another 400-mL drink on the morning of the operative day. The primary outcomes were the distances covered in 2-minute-walk tests at 24, 48 and 72-hours and 6- minute walk tests at 7-10 days postoperatively. The secondary outcomes were the postoperative serum insulin and glucose concentrations, nitrogen balance, duration of hospital stay, and the patient satisfaction scores.
RESULTS
There were no significant differences in the characteristics of the two patients-groups. The postoperative 2-minute and 6-minute walk test distances, serum insulin and glucose concentrations of both groups were not statistically different. Patients receiving carbohydrate drink had more positive nitrogen balance than the control group. The duration of hospital stay and patient satisfaction scores were similar for both-groups.
CONCLUSIONS
There were no statistically significant differences in the postoperative walking capacities of patients receiving a carbohydrate drink or pure water; only the nitrogen balance on postoperative day 3 was higher for patients receiving the carbohydrate drink.",2019,"The postoperative 2-minute and 6-minute walk test distances, serum insulin and glucose concentrations of both groups were not statistically different.","['patients undergoing major colorectal surgery', 'elective colorectal surgery', 'Seventy patients']","['preoperative carbohydrate drinks', 'carbohydrate drink', 'oral carbohydrate drink or pure water', 'preoperative oral carbohydrate drinks', 'Oral carbohydrate drinks']","['postoperative serum insulin and glucose concentrations, nitrogen balance, duration of hospital stay, and the patient satisfaction scores', 'postoperative 2-minute and 6-minute walk test distances, serum insulin and glucose concentrations', 'distances covered in 2-minute-walk tests', 'postoperative physical recovery', 'postoperative walking capacities', 'positive nitrogen balance', 'nitrogen balance', 'duration of hospital stay and patient satisfaction scores', 'postoperative walking capacity']","[{'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patient'}, {'cui': 'C0205082', 'cui_str': 'Severe'}, {'cui': 'C0009369', 'cui_str': 'Colorectal surgery'}, {'cui': 'C0206058', 'cui_str': 'Optional surgery'}, {'cui': 'C3816957', 'cui_str': '70'}]","[{'cui': 'C0445204', 'cui_str': 'Preoperative'}, {'cui': 'C0007004', 'cui_str': 'carbohydrates'}, {'cui': 'C0452428', 'cui_str': 'Drink'}, {'cui': 'C0226896', 'cui_str': 'Oral cavity structure'}, {'cui': 'C0020311', 'cui_str': 'Hydrotherapy'}]","[{'cui': 'C0032790', 'cui_str': 'Postoperative period'}, {'cui': 'C0428357', 'cui_str': 'Serum insulin measurement'}, {'cui': 'C0427743', 'cui_str': 'Glucose concentration, test strip measurement'}, {'cui': 'C0429631', 'cui_str': 'Nitrogen balance'}, {'cui': 'C0449238', 'cui_str': 'Duration'}, {'cui': 'C3489408', 'cui_str': 'Hospital Stay'}, {'cui': 'C0451370', 'cui_str': 'Patient satisfaction score'}, {'cui': 'C0439232', 'cui_str': 'min'}, {'cui': 'C0430515', 'cui_str': '6-minute walk test'}, {'cui': 'C0012751', 'cui_str': 'Distance'}, {'cui': 'C0439844', 'cui_str': 'Covered'}, {'cui': 'C4277740', 'cui_str': 'Walk Test'}, {'cui': 'C0031809', 'cui_str': 'Physical examination'}, {'cui': 'C1446409', 'cui_str': 'Positive'}]",70.0,0.0986527,"The postoperative 2-minute and 6-minute walk test distances, serum insulin and glucose concentrations of both groups were not statistically different.","[{'ForeName': 'Mingkwan', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Wongyingsinn', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Anesthesiology, Faculty of Medicine Siriraj Hospital, Mahidol University, Bangkok, Thailand. mingkwan.won@mahidol.ac.th.'}, {'ForeName': 'Soraya', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Luangchan', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Anesthesiology, Faculty of Medicine Siriraj Hospital, Mahidol University, Bangkok, Thailand.'}, {'ForeName': 'Sawinee', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Tungsongsawat', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Anesthesiology, Faculty of Medicine Siriraj Hospital, Mahidol University, Bangkok, Thailand.'}, {'ForeName': 'Attaporn', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Trakarnsanga', 'Affiliation': 'Minimally Invasive Surgery Unit, Department of Surgery, Faculty of Medicine Siriraj Hospital, Mahidol University, Bangkok, Thailand.'}, {'ForeName': 'Varut', 'Initials': 'V', 'LastName': 'Lohsiriwat', 'Affiliation': 'Colorectal Surgery Unit, Department of Surgery, Faculty of Medicine Siriraj Hospital, Mahidol University, Bangkok, Thailand.'}]",Asia Pacific journal of clinical nutrition,['10.6133/apjcn.201912_28(4).0008']
1632,31322037,Effects of Social Support and 12-Step Involvement on Recovery among People in Continuing Care for Cocaine Dependence.,"Background: Social networks that support recovery lead to enhanced treatment outcomes and sobriety regardless if this support stems from family, peer groups or 12-Step programs. Treatment process factors including readiness to change and commitment to abstinence also impact substance use. However, little is understood about the relationship between social support to treatment process factors during and after treatment for substance use disorders. Objectives: To identify the ways in which different social networks foster substance use change in a sample of individuals with cocaine dependence from intensive outpatient programs (IOPs). Methods: Data were drawn from two studies examining adults ( N = 489) with cocaine dependence in IOPs for substance use disorders collected between 2004 and 2009. Assessment data were collected at 3- to 6-month intervals from baseline to 24-months and included the University of Rhode Island change assessment questionnaire, timeline followback, thoughts about abstinence, perceived social support - friend, and family versions and analyzed using GEE and mediational analyses. Results: Greater perceived friend social support was associated with greater readiness to change whereas greater perceived familial social support was associated with substance use goal; greater social support from both friends and family were associated with less substance use. Greater AA/NA participation was associated with substance use goal and readiness to change, and less substance use. Substance use goals partially mediated the impact of social support on later substance use. Conclusions/Importance: While peer and familial support are key to sustained recovery, their impact differentially affects treatment process variables. This information could be used to inform social support treatment interventions.",2019,Greater perceived friend social support was associated with greater readiness to change whereas greater perceived familial social support was associated with substance use goal; greater social support from both friends and family were associated with less substance use.,"['People in Continuing Care for Cocaine Dependence', 'individuals with cocaine dependence from intensive outpatient programs (IOPs', 'Methods: Data were drawn from two studies examining adults ( N \u2009=\u2009489) with cocaine dependence in IOPs for substance use disorders collected between 2004 and 2009']",['Social Support and 12-Step Involvement'],"['University of Rhode Island change assessment questionnaire, timeline followback, thoughts about abstinence, perceived social support - friend, and family versions']","[{'cui': 'C0027361', 'cui_str': 'Person'}, {'cui': 'C0549178', 'cui_str': 'Continuous'}, {'cui': 'C0600427', 'cui_str': 'Cocaine dependence'}, {'cui': 'C0029921', 'cui_str': 'Outpatient'}, {'cui': 'C0018106', 'cui_str': 'Government Programs'}, {'cui': 'C0578862', 'cui_str': 'Intraocular pressure finding'}, {'cui': 'C0025663', 'cui_str': 'Method'}, {'cui': 'C0013113', 'cui_str': 'Drawings'}, {'cui': 'C0008972', 'cui_str': 'Clinical Study'}, {'cui': 'C0332128', 'cui_str': 'Examined for'}, {'cui': 'C0001675', 'cui_str': 'Adult'}, {'cui': 'C0038586', 'cui_str': 'Substance use disorder'}]","[{'cui': 'C0037438', 'cui_str': 'Social support'}, {'cui': 'C0427149', 'cui_str': 'Foot-drop gait'}, {'cui': 'C1314939', 'cui_str': 'Involvement'}]","[{'cui': 'C0041740', 'cui_str': 'University'}, {'cui': 'C0035487', 'cui_str': 'Rhode Island'}, {'cui': 'C0037400', 'cui_str': 'Social Change'}, {'cui': 'C0031809', 'cui_str': 'Physical examination'}, {'cui': 'C0034394', 'cui_str': 'Questionnaires'}, {'cui': 'C0145943', 'cui_str': 'TimeLine'}, {'cui': 'C0039869', 'cui_str': 'Thinking'}, {'cui': 'C0036899', 'cui_str': 'Celibacy'}, {'cui': 'C0030971', 'cui_str': 'Perception'}, {'cui': 'C0037438', 'cui_str': 'Social support'}, {'cui': 'C0079382', 'cui_str': 'Friend'}, {'cui': 'C0015576', 'cui_str': 'Family'}, {'cui': 'C2607870', 'cui_str': 'Version'}]",,0.0235709,Greater perceived friend social support was associated with greater readiness to change whereas greater perceived familial social support was associated with substance use goal; greater social support from both friends and family were associated with less substance use.,"[{'ForeName': 'Samantha J', 'Initials': 'SJ', 'LastName': 'Lookatch', 'Affiliation': 'Veterans Integrated Service Network 4, Mental Illness Research, Education and Clinical Center Michael J.

1633,32415981,Association of Hyponatremia and Renal Function in Type 1 Cardiorenal syndrome.,"BACKGROUND
Hyponatremia predicts type 1 cardiorenal syndrome in acute decompensated heart failure patients, which associates with poor outcome. Recovery from hyponatremia have been found to associate with better outcome in acute decompensated heart failure patients, but its prognostic value regarding renal function remains unknow.
METHODS
We performed a secondary analysis of CARRESS-HF trial, all patients included had worsening renal function (≥0.3 mg/dl increase in serum creatinine than the nadir). The serum sodium levels of patients were evaluated at baseline, day 4 and day 7 after randomization. Patients were grouped according to the status of hyponatremia: recovery from hyponatremia, no hyponatremia, persistent hyponatremia, and new-onset hyponatremia. Their associations with persistent worsening renal function (serum creatinine ≥0.3 mg/dl higher than the nadir at discharge) were explored.
RESULTS
118 patients suffered from persistent worsening renal function. Baseline hyponatremia was not associated with persistent worsening renal function (odds ratio=0.495, P=0.086). Patients in recovery from hyponatremia group had a lowest risk of persistent worsening renal function among the study population. Further, baseline serum sodium level was not associated with the risk of persistent worsening renal function (odds ratio =1.055, P=0.233), while the increases of serum sodium level at day 4 (odds ratio =0.858, P=0.003) and at day 7 (odds ratio =0.821, P<0.001) significantly predicted a lower risk of persistent worsening renal function.

1635,32416026,"Reduced pain with injection of hyaluronic acid with pre-incorporated lidocaine for nasolabial fold correction: A multicenter, double-blind, randomized, active-controlled, split-face designed, clinical study.","BACKGROUND
Injection of hyaluronic acid (HA) filler for nasolabial fold (NLF) correction is a popular aesthetic procedure. In relation to HA filler injections, effective pain control for patient comfort is an important concern.
OBJECTIVES
We compared the pain relief achieved by HA filler with 0.3% lidocaine (HAF-Lidocaine) with that achieved by HA filler without lidocaine (HAF) for NLF correction.
PATIENTS/METHODS
A total of 62 subjects with visible NLFs were enrolled in this double-blind study at two university hospitals and injected with HAF-Lidocaine and HAF, randomly assigned to the each NLFs. Subjects assessed pain using the visual analog scale (VAS). Blinded independent dermatologists assessed the Wrinkle Severity Rating Scale (WSRS) and subjects assessed the Global Aesthetic Improvement Scale (GAIS) for the evaluation of effectiveness. All adverse events during the follow-up period were recorded.
RESULTS
Immediately after treatment, 95.2% of subjects who were treated with HAF-Lidocaine reported reduced pain when compared with those who were treated with HAF and the mean VAS score difference was 38.6 mm. At 15, 30, 45, and 60 minutes after treatment, respectively, 67.7%, 41.9%, 32.3%, and 21.0% of subjects experienced reduced pain.

In an open-label, 3-period, single-sequence crossover phase 1 study in 80 healthy Japanese males (aged 20-45 years; body mass index, 18.5 to <30.0 kg/m 2 ), 10 mg of l-dopa/carbidopa 100 was administered 3 times daily on day 0 (period 1) and day 12 (period 3), and opicapone tablets (5, 10, 25, or 50 mg; n = 20 each group) were administered once daily for 11 days (period 2). During periods 1 and 3, plasma concentrations of l-dopa and 3-OMD were measured and pharmacokinetic parameters (maximum observed plasma concentration, time at which maximum concentration was observed, area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time 0 to 5 hours [AUC 5h ] and from time 0 to 24 hours [AUC 24h ] following each dose, terminal half-life) of plasma l-dopa and 3-OMD were determined along with the geometric mean ratio (period 3/period 1) of AUC 24h for l-dopa and 3-OMD. Maximum concentration of l-dopa for the first, second, or third doses of l-dopa/carbidopa did not significantly increase with increasing opicapone dose. The AUC of l-dopa increased with increasing opicapone dose but tended toward a peak plateau with opicapone doses of 25 mg and higher. Geometric mean ratios (90% confidence intervals) of AUC 24h were 5 mg, 1.16 (1.10-1.21); 10 mg, 1.26 (1.23-1.30); 25 mg, 1.51 (1.44-1.57); 50 mg, 1.60 (1.54-1.66).

1637,27404012,The Effects of Providing Fixed Compensation and Lottery-Based Rewards on Uptake of Medical Male Circumcision in Kenya: A Randomized Trial.,"BACKGROUND
Effective demand creation strategies are needed to increase uptake of medical male circumcision and reduce new HIV infections in eastern and southern Africa. Building on insights from behavioral economics, we assessed whether providing compensation for opportunity costs of time or lottery-based rewards can increase male circumcision uptake in Kenya.
METHODS
Uncircumcised men aged 21-39 years were randomized in 1:1:1 ratio to 2 intervention groups or a control group. One intervention group was offered compensation of US $12.50 conditional on circumcision uptake. Compensation was provided in the form of food vouchers. A second intervention group was offered the opportunity to participate in a lottery with high-value prizes on undergoing circumcision. The primary outcome was circumcision uptake within 3 months.
RESULTS
Among 903 participants enrolled, the group that received compensation of US $12.50 had the highest circumcision uptake (8.4%, 26/308), followed by the lottery-based rewards group (3.3%, 10/302), and the control group (1.3%, 4/299). Logistic regression analysis showed that compared with the control group, the fixed compensation group had significantly higher circumcision uptake [adjusted odds ratio 7.1; 95% CI: 2.4 to 20.8]. The lottery-based rewards group did not have significantly higher circumcision uptake than the control group (adjusted odds ratio 2.5; 95% CI: 0.8 to 8.1).
CONCLUSIONS
Providing compensation was effective in increasing circumcision uptake among men over a short period. The results are consistent with studies showing that such interventions can modify health behaviors by addressing economic barriers and behavioral biases in decision making. Contrary to findings from studies of other health behaviors, lottery-based rewards did not significantly increase circumcision uptake.

1638,21542450,"A randomised controlled trial to evaluate the effects of a self-help workbook intervention on distress, coping and quality of life after breast cancer diagnosis.","OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the efficacy of an interactive self-help workbook in reducing distress, and improving quality of life (QOL) and coping for women recently diagnosed with breast cancer.
DESIGN
Randomised controlled trial comparing the use of the workbook and that of an information booklet.
PARTICIPANTS AND SETTING
49 women with Stage 0 to II breast cancer diagnosed in the previous month and recruited from 1 February 2007 to 1 February 2008, in two urban Australian public hospitals.
MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES
The primary outcome measures were depression, anxiety, and posttraumatic stress. Secondary outcomes included QOL, body image, and the coping styles helplessness/hopelessness, cognitive avoidance and anxious preoccupation.
RESULTS
After controlling for baseline levels, interactions at 3-month follow-up showed that participants in the workbook group had significantly lower levels of posttraumatic stress (F[1,89] = 7.01; P = 0.01), helplessness/hopelessness (F [1,89] = 4.75; P = 0.03), and cognitive avoidance (F [1,89] = 4.95; P = 0.03) than those in the control (information booklet) group. However, women in the workbook group had significantly poorer body image than those in the control group (F [1,89] = 6.43; P = 0.01). At 6 months, only the body image interaction remained significant (F [1,93] = 7.44; P = 0.01).
CONCLUSION
These results suggest that a self-help workbook can be an effective, short-term intervention for improving posttraumatic stress, cognitive avoidance, and certain depressive symptoms in women recently diagnosed with breast cancer. However, issues related to body image need to be dealt with differently.

1640,32416201,Effect of exercise-based cardiac rehabilitation on clinical outcomes in patients with myocardial infarction in the absence of obstructive coronary artery disease (MINOCA): A prospective cohort study.,"BACKGROUND
Myocardial infarction in the absence of obstructive coronary artery disease (MINOCA) is characterized by clinical evidence of myocardial infarction with nonobstructive coronary stenosis on angiography (stenosis < 50%). Studies on the effect that exercise-based cardiac rehabilitation (CR) has on outcomes in MINOCA patients are lacking. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to determine the effect of exercise-based CR on clinical outcomes in patients with MINOCA.
METHODS
A total of 524 participants with MINOCA were recruited in this prospective cohort study from August 2014 to October 2016 and followed for three years. We randomly divided 524 patients into an exercise-based cardiac rehabilitation group (CR+) and a control group (CR-). The CR+ group followed a home-based exercise-training program three times a week during the three years of moderate continuous training (MCT; 65%-75% of peak heart rate) on a bicycle or treadmill.
RESULTS
After one year of follow-up, the Short Form 36 (SF-36) survey showed apparent improvement in the mean physical health score in the CR+ group compared with the CR- group (P < 0.01). During the three-year follow-up, all-cause mortality occurred in 60 individuals, and major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) happened in 136 individuals. Kaplan-Meier curves indicated a significant reduction in all-cause mortality (log-rank P < 0.05) and MACE (log-rank P < 0.01) in the CR+ group.

1641,32416072,"Ivosidenib in IDH1-mutant, chemotherapy-refractory cholangiocarcinoma (ClarIDHy): a multicentre, randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, phase 3 study.","BACKGROUND
Isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 (IDH1) mutations occur in approximately 13% of patients with intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma, a relatively uncommon cancer with a poor clinical outcome. The aim of this international phase 3 study was to assess the efficacy and safety of ivosidenib (AG-120)-a small-molecule targeted inhibitor of mutated IDH1-in patients with previously treated IDH1-mutant cholangiocarcinoma.
METHODS
This multicentre, randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, phase 3 study included patients from 49 hospitals in six countries aged at least 18 years with histologically confirmed, advanced, IDH1-mutant cholangiocarcinoma who had progressed on previous therapy, and had up to two previous treatment regimens for advanced disease, an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status score of 0 or 1, and a measurable lesion as defined by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors version 1.1. Patients were randomly assigned (2:1) with a block size of 6 and stratified by number of previous systemic treatment regimens for advanced disease to oral ivosidenib 500 mg or matched placebo once daily in continuous 28-day cycles, by means of an interactive web-based response system. Placebo to ivosidenib crossover was permitted on radiological progression per investigator assessment. The primary endpoint was progression-free survival by independent central review. The intention-to-treat population was used for the primary efficacy analyses. Safety was assessed in all patients who had received at least one dose of ivosidenib or placebo. Enrolment is complete; this study is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT02989857.
FINDINGS
Between Feb 20, 2017, and Jan 31, 2019, 230 patients were assessed for eligibility, and as of the Jan 31, 2019 data cutoff date, 185 patients were randomly assigned to ivosidenib (n=124) or placebo (n=61). Median follow-up for progression-free survival was 6·9 months (IQR 2·8-10·9). Progression-free survival was significantly improved with ivosidenib compared with placebo (median 2·7 months [95% CI 1·6-4·2] vs 1·4 months [1·4-1·6]; hazard ratio 0·37; 95% CI 0·25-0·54; one-sided p<0·0001). The most common grade 3 or worse adverse event in both treatment groups was ascites (four [7%] of 59 patients receiving placebo and nine [7%] of 121 patients receiving ivosidenib). Serious adverse events were reported in 36 (30%) of 121 patients receiving ivosidenib and 13 (22%) of 59 patients receiving placebo. There were no treatment-related deaths.
INTERPRETATION
Progression-free survival was significantly improved with ivosidenib compared with placebo, and ivosidenib was well tolerated. This study shows the clinical benefit of targeting IDH1 mutations in advanced, IDH1-mutant cholangiocarcinoma.

1642,32416145,Dose-finding study of a 90-day contraceptive vaginal ring releasing estradiol and segesterone acetate.,"OBJECTIVE
To evaluate serum estradiol (E2) concentrations during use of 90-day contraceptive vaginal rings releasing E2 75, 100, or 200 mcg/day and segesterone acetate (SA) 200 mcg/day to identify a dose that avoids hypoestrogenism. Study Design We conducted a multicenter dose-finding study in healthy, reproductive-aged women with regular cycles with sequential enrollment to increasing E2 dose groups. We evaluated serum E2 concentrations twice weekly for the primary outcome of median E2 concentrations throughout initial 30-day use (target ≥40 pg/mL). In an optional 2-cycle extension substudy, we randomized participants to 2- or 4-day ring-free intervals per 30-day cycle to evaluate bleeding and spotting based on daily diary information.
RESULTS
Sixty-five participants enrolled in E2 75 (n=22), 100 (n=21), and 200 (n=22) mcg/day groups; 35 participated in the substudy. Median serum E2 concentrations in 75 and 100 mcg/day groups were <40 pg/mL. In the 200 mcg/day group, median E2 concentrations peaked on days 4-5 of CVR use at 194 pg/mL (range 114-312 pg/mL) and remained >40 pg/mL throughout 30 days; E2 concentrations were 37 pg/mL (range 28-62 pg/mL) on days 88-90 (n=11). Among the E2 200 mcg/day substudy participants, all had withdrawal bleeding following ring removal. The 2-day ring-free interval group reported zero median unscheduled bleeding and two (range 0-16) and three (range 0-19) unscheduled spotting days in extension cycles 1 and 2, respectively. The 4-day ring-free interval group reported zero median unscheduled bleeding or spotting days.
CONCLUSIONS
Estradiol concentrations with rings releasing E2 200 mcg/day and SA 200 mcg/day avoid hypoestrogenism over 30-day use.

1643,32416073,"Camrelizumab versus investigator's choice of chemotherapy as second-line therapy for advanced or metastatic oesophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCORT): a multicentre, randomised, open-label, phase 3 study.","BACKGROUND
Patients with advanced or metastatic oesophageal squamous cell carcinoma have poor prognosis and few treatment options after first-line therapy. We aimed to assess efficacy and safety of the anti-PD-1 antibody camrelizumab versus investigator's choice of chemotherapy in previously treated patients.
METHODS
ESCORT is a randomised, open-label, phase 3 study of patients aged 18 to 75 years with a histological or cytological diagnosis of advanced or metastatic oesophageal squamous cell carcinoma done at 43 hospitals in China. Eligible patients had an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 or 1, and had progressed on, or were intolerant to, first-line standard therapy. Patients were randomly assigned (1:1) to camrelizumab (200 mg every 2 weeks) or chemotherapy with docetaxel (75 mg/m 2 every 3 weeks) or irinotecan (180 mg/m 2 every 2 weeks), all given intravenously. Central randomisation was done using the Randomization and Trial Supply Management system with block size randomly generated as four or six and stratified by disease and ECOG performance status. The primary endpoint was overall survival, assessed in randomised patients who had received at least one dose of treatment. Safety was assessed in all treated patients. The trial is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT03099382, and is closed to new participants.
FINDINGS
From May 10, 2017, to July 24, 2018, 457 (75%) of 607 screened patients were randomly assigned to treatment, of whom 228 received camrelizumab treatment and 220 received chemotherapy. As of data cutoff on May 6, 2019, with a median follow-up time of 8·3 months (IQR 4·1-12·8) in the camrelizumab group and 6·2 months (3·6-10·1) in the chemotherapy group, median overall survival was 8·3 months (95% CI 6·8-9·7) in the camrelizumab group and 6·2 months (5·7-6·9) in the chemotherapy group (hazard ratio 0·71 [95% CI 0·57-0·87]; two-sided p=0·0010). The most common treatment-related adverse events of grade 3 or worse were anaemia (camrelizumab vs chemotherapy: six [3%] vs 11 [5%]), abnormal hepatic function (four [2%] vs one [<1%]), and diarrhoea (three [1%] vs nine [4%]). Serious treatment-related adverse events occurred in 37 (16%) of 228 patients in the camrelizumab group, and in 32 (15%) of 220 patients in the chemotherapy group. Ten treatment-related deaths occurred, seven (3%) in the camrelizumab group (three deaths from unknown causes, one enterocolitis, one hepatic function abnormal, one pneumonitis, and one myocarditis) and three (1%) in the chemotherapy group (two deaths from unknown causes, and one gastrointestinal haemorrhage).
INTERPRETATION
Second-line camrelizumab significantly improved overall survival in patients with advanced or metastatic oesophageal squamous cell carcinoma compared with chemotherapy, with a manageable safety profile.

1644,32416157,Effects of high and low sucrose-containing beverages on blood glucose and hypoglycemic-like symptoms.,"BACKGROUND AND AIMS
There is this intriguing but not yet well-explored suggestion that highly absorbable sucrose-sweetened drinks might exacerbate hunger by promoting temporal hypoglycemia-like responses already in non-diabetic healthy individuals. This might provide a possible additional explanatory mechanism for previous reported associations between consumption of sugar-sweetened drinks and body weight gain. The current study involves two separate and independently conducted human experiments exploring the effects of two different single-doses of sugar-sweetened beverages on temporal blood glucose nadir and possible related behavioral hypoglycemic-like symptoms in healthy participants.
METHODS
By way of two separately conducted between-subjects experiments, effects of 1) a low (29g) sugar-containing beverage compared to a sweetened zero-energy drink and a milk drink (experiment-1) or 2) a high (80g) sugar-sweetened beverage compared to a zero-energy and a non-sweetened colored water drink (experiment-2) were measured on changes in blood glucose, behavioral hypoglycemia, appetite and mood.
RESULTS
Experiment-1: The 29g sucrose containing beverage caused a high (37%) glycemic increase and a smaller response (15%) to the milk drink, which both peaked 30min after consumption, whereas the sweetened zero-energy drink had very little effect on blood glucose. Regardless of the different magnitude of peak glycemic responses, both the sugar and milk drinks rather equally caused blood glucose concentrations to return to normal and stable baseline values 90min later. There were no (different) effects of the beverages on behavioral hypoglycemic-like symptoms, appetite or mood. Experiment-2: the 80g sucrose containing beverage caused a large (72%) glycemic peak response at +30min after consumption, whereas neither the sweetened zero-energy nor the non-sweetened colored water drink had any meaningful effect on blood glucose. After intake of the 80g sugar beverage, blood glucose concentrations remained elevated (13%) at +120min and returned to lower baseline values in the direction of hypoglycemia levels at +165min. There were no (differential) effects of the beverages on behavioral hypoglycemic symptoms, appetite or mood.
CONCLUSIONS
The current findings indicate that instead of a low (29g) sugar-containing beverage, a high (80g) sugar-containing beverage caused blood glucose concentrations to fall below baseline values almost reaching hypoglycemia levels at the end of measurements. There were no hypoglycemic-like behavioral symptoms including changes in appetite or mood: at least not at end of measurements +165min after consumption. Since this might include that in particular consumption of high-glycemic index drinks could still promote symptoms in the longer run, further research is needed to explore possible hypoglycemic-like effects of high dosages of sugar-sweetened beverages across more extended/delayed time measurements.",2020,There were no hypoglycemic-like behavioral symptoms including changes in appetite or mood: at least not at end of measurements +165min after consumption.,"['healthy participants', 'Experiment-1', 'Experiment-2']","['high and low sucrose-containing beverages', 'low (29g) sugar-containing beverage compared to a sweetened zero-energy drink and a milk drink (experiment-1) or 2) a high (80g) sugar-sweetened beverage compared to a zero-energy and a non-sweetened colored water drink (experiment-2', 'sugar-sweetened beverages']","['blood glucose, behavioral hypoglycemia, appetite and mood', 'behavioral hypoglycemic-like symptoms, appetite or mood', 'blood glucose', 'glycemic peak response', 'blood glucose and hypoglycemic-like symptoms', 'hypoglycemic-like behavioral symptoms including changes in appetite or mood', 'blood glucose concentrations', 'behavioral hypoglycemic symptoms, appetite or mood', 'temporal blood glucose nadir']","[{'cui': 'C1708335', 'cui_str': 'Healthy Participants'}]","[{'cui': 'C0205250', 'cui_str': 'High'}, {'cui': 'C0205251', 'cui_str': 'Low'}, {'cui': 'C0038636', 'cui_str': 'Sucrose'}, {'cui': 'C0332256', 'cui_str': 'Containing'}, {'cui': 'C0001967', 'cui_str': 'Alcoholic beverage'}, {'cui': 'C0007004', 'cui_str': 'carbohydrates'}, {'cui': 'C0919414', 'cui_str': '0'}, {'cui': 'C3179078', 'cui_str': 'Energy drink'}, {'cui': 'C0026131', 'cui_str': 'Milk'}, {'cui': 'C0452428', 'cui_str': 'Drink'}, {'cui': 'C5197754', 'cui_str': 'Sugar-Added Beverages'}, {'cui': 'C0020311', 'cui_str': 'Hydrotherapy'}]","[{'cui': 'C0005802', 'cui_str': 'Glucose, Blood'}, {'cui': 'C0004927', 'cui_str': 'Behavior finding'}, {'cui': 'C0020615', 'cui_str': 'Hypoglycemia'}, {'cui': 'C0003618', 'cui_str': 'Food appetite'}, {'cui': 'C0026516', 'cui_str': 'Mood'}, {'cui': 'C0020616', 'cui_str': 'Hypoglycemic agent'}, {'cui': 'C0683368', 'cui_str': 'symptoms'}, {'cui': 'C0444505', 'cui_str': 'Peak'}, {'cui': 'C0004941', 'cui_str': 'Behavioral Symptoms'}, {'cui': 'C0332257', 'cui_str': 'Including'}, {'cui': 'C0426587', 'cui_str': 'Altered appetite'}, {'cui': 'C2585282', 'cui_str': 'Blood glucose concentration'}, {'cui': 'C0442043', 'cui_str': 'Temporal'}]",,0.0416675,There were no hypoglycemic-like behavioral symptoms including changes in appetite or mood: at least not at end of measurements +165min after consumption.,"[{'ForeName': 'C Rob', 'Initials': 'CR', 'LastName': 'Markus', 'Affiliation': 'University Maastricht; Faculty of Psychology and Neuroscience; Dept of Neuropsychology & Psychopharmacology; Maastricht, The Netherlands..

1645,32416309,Clinical Characteristics and Response to Supervised Exercise Therapy in People with Lower Extremity Peripheral Artery Disease.,"INTRODUCTION
Among people with lower extremity peripheral artery disease (PAD), little is known about variation in response to supervised exercise therapy (SET). Clinical characteristics associated with greater responsiveness to SET have not been identified.
METHODS
Data from participants with PAD in two randomized clinical trials comparing SET vs. non-exercising control were combined. The exercise intervention consisted of three times weekly supervised treadmill exercise. The control groups received lectures on health-related topics.
RESULTS
Of 309 unique participants randomized (mean age 67.9 (standard deviation (SD) =9.3), 132 (42.7%) women, 185 (59.9%) black), 285 (92%) completed six-month follow-up. Compared to control, those randomized to SET improved six-minute walk distance by 35.6 meters (95% confidence interval (CI) = +21.4,+49.8, P<0.001). In the 95 (62.1%) participants who attended at least 70% of SET sessions, change in six-minute walk distance varied from -149.4 to +356.0 meters. Thirty-four (35.8%) had no six-minute walk distance improvement. Among all participants, age, sex, race, body mass index, prior lower extremity revascularization and other clinical characteristics did not affect the degree of improvement in six-minute walk distance after SET, relative to the control group. Participants with six-minute walk distance less than the median of 334 meters at baseline had greater percent improvement in six-minute walk distance compared to those with baseline six-minute walk distance above the median (+20.5% vs. +5.3%, P for interaction= 0.0107).
CONCLUSIONS
Among people with PAD, substantial variability exists in walking improvement after SET. Shorter 6-minute walk distance at baseline was associated with greater improvement after SET, but other clinical characteristics, including age, sex, prior lower extremity revascularization, and disease severity, did not affect responsiveness to exercise therapy.",2020,"Compared to control, those randomized to SET improved six-minute walk distance by 35.6 meters (95% confidence interval (CI) = +21.4,+49.8, P<0.001).","['People with Lower Extremity Peripheral Artery Disease', 'people with lower extremity peripheral artery disease (PAD', 'Of 309 unique participants randomized (mean age 67.9 (standard deviation (SD) =9.3), 132 (42.7%) women, 185 (59.9%) black), 285 (92%) completed six-month follow-up', 'Data from participants with PAD in two randomized clinical trials comparing']","['SET vs. non-exercising control', 'lectures on health-related topics', 'exercise intervention consisted of three times weekly supervised treadmill exercise', 'Supervised Exercise Therapy']","['Shorter 6-minute walk distance', 'six-minute walk distance']","[{'cui': 'C0027361', 'cui_str': 'Person'}, {'cui': 'C0023216', 'cui_str': 'Lower limb structure'}, {'cui': 'C1704436', 'cui_str': 'Peripheral Arterial Diseases'}, {'cui': 'C0444504', 'cui_str': 'Mean'}, {'cui': 'C0001779', 'cui_str': 'Age'}, {'cui': 'C0871420', 'cui_str': 'Standard deviation'}, {'cui': 'C0043210', 'cui_str': 'Woman'}, {'cui': 'C4517617', 'cui_str': '185'}, {'cui': 'C0005680', 'cui_str': 'Black - ethnic group'}, {'cui': 'C0205197', 'cui_str': 'Complete'}, {'cui': 'C4082120', 'cui_str': 'Six months'}, {'cui': 'C0589120', 'cui_str': 'Follow-up status'}, {'cui': 'C0206034', 'cui_str': 'Trials, Randomized Clinical'}]","[{'cui': 'C0452240', 'cui_str': 'Exercises'}, {'cui': 'C0015259', 'cui_str': 'Exercise'}, {'cui': 'C0009932', 'cui_str': 'Control Groups'}, {'cui': 'C0376683', 'cui_str': 'Lectures'}, {'cui': 'C0018684', 'cui_str': 'Health'}, {'cui': 'C1522168', 'cui_str': 'Topical route'}, {'cui': 'C0184661', 'cui_str': 'Procedure'}, {'cui': 'C0332529', 'cui_str': 'Consistency'}, {'cui': 'C0556987', 'cui_str': 'Three times weekly'}, {'cui': 'C0184069', 'cui_str': 'Treadmill'}]","[{'cui': 'C0453933', 'cui_str': 'Shorts'}, {'cui': 'C0439232', 'cui_str': 'min'}, {'cui': 'C0429886', 'cui_str': 'Walking distance'}]",,0.194197,"Compared to control, those randomized to SET improved six-minute walk distance by 35.6 meters (95% confidence interval (CI) = +21.4,+49.8, P<0.001).","[{'ForeName': 'Kruti', 'Initials': 'K', 'LastName': 'Patel', 'Affiliation': 'University of Illinois Chicago.'}, {'ForeName': 'Tamar S', 'Initials': 'TS', 'LastName': 'Polonsky', 'Affiliation': 'University of Chicago, Department of Medicine, Department of Surgery.'}, {'ForeName': 'Melina R', 'Initials': 'MR', 'LastName': 'Kibbe', 'Affiliation': 'University of North Carolina.'}, {'ForeName': 'Jack M', 'Initials': 'JM', 'LastName': 'Guralnik', 'Affiliation': 'University of Maryland Department of Epidemiology.'}, {'ForeName': 'Lu', 'Initials': 'L', 'LastName': 'Tian', 'Affiliation': 'Stanford University Biomedical Science Data.'}, {'ForeName': 'Luigi', 'Initials': 'L', 'LastName': 'Ferrucci', 'Affiliation': 'National Institute on Aging Division of Intramural Research.'}, {'ForeName': 'Michael H', 'Initials': 'MH', 'LastName': 'Criqui', 'Affiliation': 'University of California at San Diego, Department of Family Medicine and Public Health.'}, {'ForeName': 'Robert', 'Initials': 'R', 'LastName': 'Sufit', 'Affiliation': 'Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine, Department of Neurology.'}, {'ForeName': 'Christiaan', 'Initials': 'C', 'LastName': 'Leeuwenburgh', 'Affiliation': 'University of Florida, Department of Aging and Geriatric Research.'}, {'ForeName': 'Dongxue', 'Initials': 'D', 'LastName': 'Zhang', 'Affiliation': 'Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine Department of Medicine.'}, {'ForeName': 'Lihui', 'Initials': 'L', 'LastName': 'Zhao', 'Affiliation': 'Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine, Department of Preventive Medicine.'}, {'ForeName': 'Mary M', 'Initials': 'MM', 'LastName': 'McDermott', 'Affiliation': 'Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine Department of Medicine; Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine, Department of Preventive Medicine.

1646,32416251,Time Course and Management of Key Adverse Events During the Randomized Phase 3 SOLAR-1 Study of PI3K Inhibitor Alpelisib Plus Fulvestrant in Patients With HR-Positive Advanced Breast Cancer.,"BACKGROUND
Alpelisib (α-selective PI3K inhibitor) plus fulvestrant is approved in multiple countries for men and post-menopausal women with PIK3CA-mutated, hormone receptor (HR)-positive, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-negative advanced breast cancer following progression on or after endocrine therapy. A detailed understanding of alpelisib's safety profile should inform adverse event (AE) management and enhance patient care.
PATIENTS AND METHODS
AEs in the phase 3 SOLAR-1 trial were assessed in patients with and without PIK3CA mutations. The impact of protocol-specified AE-management recommendations was evaluated, including an amendment to optimize hyperglycemia and rash management.
RESULTS
Patients were randomized to fulvestrant plus alpelisib (n=284) or placebo (n=287). The most common grade 3/4 AEs with alpelisib were hyperglycemia (grade 3, 32.7%; grade 4, 3.9%), rash (grade 3, 9.9%), and diarrhea (grade 3, 6.7%). Median time to onset of grade ≥3 toxicity was 15 days (hyperglycemia, based on fasting plasma glucose), 13 days (rash), and 139 days (diarrhea). Metformin alone or in combination with other anti-diabetic agents was used by most patients (87.1%) with hyperglycemia. Preventive anti-rash medication resulted in lower incidence (any grade, 26.7% vs 64.1%) and severity of rash (grade 3, 11.6% vs 22.7%) vs no preventative medication. Discontinuations due to grade ≥3 AEs were lower following more-detailed AE management guidelines (7.9% vs 18.1% previously). Patients with PIK3CA mutations had a median alpelisib dose intensity of 248 mg/day. Median progression-free survival (PFS) with alpelisib was 12.5 and 9.6 months for alpelisib dose intensities ≥248 mg/day and <248 mg/day, respectively, compared with 5.8 months with placebo.
CONCLUSIONS
Hyperglycemia and rash occurred early during alpelisib treatment, while diarrhea occurred at a later timepoint.

1647,32416333,Convergence of Epicardial and Endocardial RF Ablation for the Treatment of Symptomatic Persistent AF (CONVERGE Trial): Rationale and design.,"Atrial fibrillation is the most common sustained arrhythmia affecting over 33 million people worldwide. Approximately 70% of AF patients have non-paroxysmal AF. As AF progresses from paroxysmal to non-paroxysmal forms, the prevalence of comorbidities increases. The efficacy of catheter ablation for persistent and long standing persistent (LSP) AF is <40%, often requiring multiple ablation procedures with greater cost and potentially more complications. There is an unmet need to effectively treat such patients. METHODS: CONVERGE is an investigational device exempt, prospective, multi-center, open label 2:1 randomized controlled pivotal study to evaluate the overall success of the Convergent hybrid procedure compared to endocardial catheter ablation for the treatment of symptomatic persistent AF refractory or intolerant to at least one Class I and /or III anti-arrhythmic drug (AAD). A total of 153 subjects at 27 centers are treated in the study. The CONVERGE study is differentiated from other studies currently being conducted on the persistent AF population, because a) there is no time restriction on the duration of diagnosed AF in the patients being studied and b) the trial allows patients with left atrial sizes up to 6 centimeters. The ongoing trials are limited to either 6 months, 12 months or 3-years of continuous AF making CONVERGE the only ablation trial thus far to include a substantial portion of patients with longstanding persistent AF. The convergent procedure involves combination of minimally invasive pericardioscopic epicardial ablation with endocardial left atrial ablation. The primary endpoint is freedom from AF/AFL/AF absent class I/III AAD, except for a previously failed class I/ III AAD with no increase in dosage following 3-months through 12-months. The primary safety endpoint is the incidence of major adverse events from the procedure through 30-days post procedure. CONCLUSION: CONVERGE AF compares the overall success of the Convergent hybrid procedure to endocardial catheter ablation for the treatment of persistent and longstanding persistent AF. By providing objective comparative data, the study aims to provide guidance on the treatment of such patients.",2020,AF compares the overall success of the Convergent hybrid procedure to endocardial catheter ablation for the treatment of persistent and longstanding persistent AF.,"['symptomatic persistent AF refractory or intolerant to at least one Class I and /or III anti-arrhythmic drug (AAD', '153 subjects at 27 centers are treated in the study', 'patients with longstanding persistent AF', 'patients with left atrial sizes up to 6 centimeters']","['minimally invasive pericardioscopic epicardial ablation with endocardial left atrial ablation', 'catheter ablation', 'Epicardial and Endocardial RF Ablation', 'endocardial catheter ablation']","['freedom from AF/AFL/AF absent class I/III AAD', 'incidence of major adverse events']","[{'cui': 'C0231220', 'cui_str': 'Symptomatic'}, {'cui': 'C0332996', 'cui_str': 'Persistent embryonic structure'}, {'cui': 'C0205269', 'cui_str': 'Intractable'}, {'cui': 'C0441885', 'cui_str': 'Class 1'}, {'cui': 'C0439070', 'cui_str': 'III'}, {'cui': 'C0003195', 'cui_str': 'Antiarrhythmic agent'}, {'cui': 'C0013227', 'cui_str': 'Pharmaceutical / biologic product'}, {'cui': 'C0205099', 'cui_str': 'Central'}, {'cui': 'C0087111', 'cui_str': 'Therapeutic procedure'}, {'cui': 'C0008972', 'cui_str': 'Clinical Study'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patient'}, {'cui': 'C0018792', 'cui_str': 'Atrial structure'}, {'cui': 'C0456389', 'cui_str': 'Size'}, {'cui': 'C0547043', 'cui_str': 'Up'}, {'cui': 'C0475210', 'cui_str': 'cm'}]","[{'cui': 'C0205281', 'cui_str': 'Invasive'}, {'cui': 'C0442016', 'cui_str': 'Epicardial'}, {'cui': 'C0547070', 'cui_str': 'Ablation - action'}, {'cui': 'C0014124', 'cui_str': 'Endocardial'}, {'cui': 'C0205091', 'cui_str': 'Left'}, {'cui': 'C0018792', 'cui_str': 'Atrial structure'}, {'cui': 'C0162563', 'cui_str': 'Cardiac ablation'}]","[{'cui': 'C0016694', 'cui_str': 'Liberty'}, {'cui': 'C0332197', 'cui_str': 'Absent'}, {'cui': 'C0441885', 'cui_str': 'Class 1'}, {'cui': 'C0439070', 'cui_str': 'III'}, {'cui': 'C0021149', 'cui_str': 'Incidence'}, {'cui': 'C0205082', 'cui_str': 'Severe'}, {'cui': 'C0877248', 'cui_str': 'Adverse event'}]",153.0,0.021211,AF compares the overall success of the Convergent hybrid procedure to endocardial catheter ablation for the treatment of persistent and longstanding persistent AF.,"[{'ForeName': 'David B', 'Initials': 'DB', 'LastName': 'DeLurgio', 'Affiliation': ""Emory St. Joseph's Hospital, Atlanta, GA.""}, {'ForeName': 'Edward', 'Initials': 'E', 'LastName': 'Ferguson', 'Affiliation': 'North Mississippi Medical Center, Tupelo, MS.'}, {'ForeName': 'Jaswinder', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Gill', 'Affiliation': ""Guy's and St. Thomas's Hospital, London, UK.""}, {'ForeName': 'Christopher', 'Initials': 'C', 'LastName': 'Blauth', 'Affiliation': ""Guy's and St. Thomas's Hospital, London, UK.""}, {'ForeName': 'Saumil', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Oza', 'Affiliation': ""St Vincent's Medical Center, Jacksonville, FL.""}, {'ForeName': 'Mark', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Mostovych', 'Affiliation': ""St Vincent's Medical Center, Jacksonville, FL.""}, {'ForeName': 'Yashasvi', 'Initials': 'Y', 'LastName': 'Awasthi', 'Affiliation': 'AtriCure, Inc., Mason, OH.

1648,32416385,Transdiagnostic preventative intervention for subclinical anxiety: Development and initial validation.,"Risk factors associated with the development of anxiety disorders have been identified; however, the development of preventive interventions targeting these risk factors is in the nascent stage. To date, preventive interventions have tended to target specific anxiety disorder symptoms (e.g., panic attacks). Although these interventions are effective at reducing risk for the targeted disorder (e.g., panic disorder), the focus of the intervention is narrow, thereby limiting the dissemination of these interventions. One approach that may broaden the scope of our prevention efforts is the development of a transdiagnostic intervention. Currently, transdiagnostic interventions have only been used in those with diagnosed conditions (e.g., anxiety disorders); however, it stands to reason that a transdiagnostic approach may also be helpful for those at-risk for developing anxiety disorders. The present study reported on the development and use of a brief preventative intervention for those with subclinical anxiety (i.e., worry, social anxiety). Participants were randomized into either a transdiagnostic preventative intervention, focused on reduction of safety aids, or a health focused control group. Participants consisted of sixty-nine individuals with subclinical levels of anxiety. Results revealed significant between group differences in the reduction of social anxiety, worry, and levels of impairment with the active intervention group relative to the control group. Further, change in safety aid utilization was a significant mediator in the association between intervention group and social anxiety and worry at Week 1; however, it was not a significant mediator at Month 1. Implications of these results and avenues for future research are discussed.",2020,"Results revealed significant between group differences in the reduction of social anxiety, worry, and levels of impairment with the active intervention group relative to the control group.",['Participants consisted of sixty-nine individuals with subclinical levels of anxiety'],"['transdiagnostic preventative intervention, focused on reduction of safety aids, or a health focused control group', 'Transdiagnostic preventative intervention']","['safety aid utilization', 'social anxiety, worry, and levels of impairment', 'social anxiety and worry']","[{'cui': 'C0332529', 'cui_str': 'Consistency'}, {'cui': 'C0450388', 'cui_str': '69'}, {'cui': 'C0027361', 'cui_str': 'Person'}, {'cui': 'C0205211', 'cui_str': 'Subclinical'}, {'cui': 'C0564474', 'cui_str': 'Level of anxiety'}]","[{'cui': 'C0199176', 'cui_str': 'Preventive procedure'}, {'cui': 'C0184661', 'cui_str': 'Procedure'}, {'cui': 'C0000936', 'cui_str': 'Ocular accommodation'}, {'cui': 'C0301630', 'cui_str': 'Reduction (chemical)'}, {'cui': 'C0036043', 'cui_str': 'Safety'}, {'cui': 'C0021588', 'cui_str': 'Artificial insemination, heterologous'}, {'cui': 'C0018684', 'cui_str': 'Health'}, {'cui': 'C0009932', 'cui_str': 'Control Groups'}]","[{'cui': 'C0036043', 'cui_str': 'Safety'}, {'cui': 'C0021588', 'cui_str': 'Artificial insemination, heterologous'}, {'cui': 'C0042153', 'cui_str': 'utilization'}, {'cui': 'C0424166', 'cui_str': 'Social fear'}, {'cui': 'C0233481', 'cui_str': 'Worried'}, {'cui': 'C0441889', 'cui_str': 'Levels'}, {'cui': 'C0221099', 'cui_str': 'Impaired'}]",69.0,0.0158088,"Results revealed significant between group differences in the reduction of social anxiety, worry, and levels of impairment with the active intervention group relative to the control group.","[{'ForeName': 'Kristina J', 'Initials': 'KJ', 'LastName': 'Korte', 'Affiliation': 'Massachusetts General Hospital, Boston, MA, USA; Harvard T.H.

1649,27162478,Prospective validation of a novel dosing scheme for intravenous busulfan in adult patients undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.,"The objective of this study was to externally validate a new dosing scheme for busulfan. Thirty-seven adult patients who received busulfan as conditioning therapy for hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HCT) participated in this prospective study. Patients were randomized to receive intravenous busulfan, either as the conventional dosage (3.2 mg/kg daily) or according to the new dosing scheme based on their actual body weight (ABW) (23×ABW(0.5) mg daily) targeting an area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) of 5924 µM·min. Pharmacokinetic profiles were collected using a limited sampling strategy by randomly selecting 2 time points at 3.5, 5, 6, 7 or 22 hours after starting busulfan administration. Using an established population pharmacokinetic model with NONMEM software, busulfan concentrations at the available blood sampling times were predicted from dosage history and demographic data. The predicted and measured concentrations were compared by a visual predictive check (VPC). Maximum a posteriori Bayesian estimators were estimated to calculate the predicted AUC (AUCPRED). The accuracy and precision of the AUCPRED values were assessed by calculating the mean prediction error (MPE) and root mean squared prediction error (RMSE), and compared with the target AUC of 5924 µM·min. VPC showed that most data fell within the 95% prediction interval. MPE and RMSE of AUCPRED were -5.8% and 20.6%, respectively, in the conventional dosing group and -2.1% and 14.0%, respectively, in the new dosing scheme group.

1650,32416376,Accelerating prostate stereotactic ablative body radiotherapy: Efficacy and toxicity of a randomized phase II study of 11 versus 29 days overall treatment time (PATRIOT).,"BACKGROUND
Prostate stereotactic ablative radiotherapy (SABR) regimens differ in time, dose, and fractionation. We report an update of a multicentre, Canadian randomized phase II study to investigate the impact of overall treatment time on quality of life (QOL), efficacy, and toxicity.
METHODS
Men with intermediate risk prostate cancer were randomized to 40 Gy in 5 fractions delivered every other day (EOD) versus once per week (QW). Primary outcome was proportion of patients experiencing a minimally clinically important change (MCIC) in acute bowel QOL using EPIC. Secondary outcomes were toxicity, biochemical failure (BF), other QOL domains, and the rate of salvage therapy.
FINDINGS
152 men from 3 centers were randomized; the median follow-up was 62 months. Results are described for EOD versus QW. Acute bowel and urinary QOL was reported previously. Late changes in QOL were not significantly different between the two arms. There were 1 (1.3%) vs 3 (2.7%) late grade 3 + GI toxicities (p = 0.36) and 5 (6.7%) vs 2 (2.7%) late grade 3 GU toxicities (p = 0.44). Two and 5 patients had BF (5-year failure rate 3.0 vs 7.2%, p = 0.22); 0 and 4 patients received salvage therapy (p = 0.04). 5-Year OS and CSS was 95.8% and 98.6% with no difference between arms (p = 0.49, p = 0.15). 3 patients in the QW arm developed metastases.
INTERPRETATION

1651,32416406,The effect of a running training intervention on ankle power generation in children and adolescents with cerebral palsy: A randomized controlled trial.,"BACKGROUND
Children and adolescents with cerebral palsy who are classified as Gross Motor Function Classification Scale level I or II are usually able to run but lack ankle power generation for push-off. The aim of this study was to analyze the efficacy of a running training program in improving ankle power generation in children and adolescents with cerebral palsy.
METHODS
This randomized controlled trial compared kinematic and spatiotemporal data collected during running from 38 children and adolescents with unilateral or bilateral cerebral palsy before and after a 12-week running program. Normalized speed, stride length, cadence, foot strike pattern, peak ankle power generation, peak hip flexor power generation in swing and propulsion strategy were calculated. Linear mixed models were developed to analyze differences between groups.
FINDINGS
At follow-up the intervention group had increased normalized speed of running (t = -3.68 p < .01) while the control group got slower (t = 3.17 p < .01). In running, children in Gross Motor Function Classification Scale level II in the intervention group increased ankle power (t = 2.49 p = .01) while the control group did not change (t = 0.38 p = .71). In sprinting, children in Gross Motor Function Classification Scale levels I and II in the intervention group maintained ankle power (level I t = 0.32 p = .75; level II t = 1.56 p = .12) while those in the control group decreased ankle power (level I t = 4.69 p < .01; level II t = 2.52 p = .01). Most within-group differences did not result in significant between-group differences at follow-up.

Power generation for running may be responsive to targeted intervention in children with cerebral palsy.",2020,"In sprinting, children in Gross Motor Function Classification Scale levels I and II in the intervention group maintained ankle power (level","['38 children and adolescents with unilateral or bilateral cerebral palsy before and after a 12-week running program', 'children with cerebral palsy', 'Children and adolescents with cerebral palsy', 'children and adolescents with cerebral palsy']","['running training program', 'running training intervention']","['normalized speed of running', 'Normalized speed, stride length, cadence, foot strike pattern, peak ankle power generation, peak hip flexor power generation in swing and propulsion strategy', 'Gross Motor Function Classification Scale level', 'ankle power (level', 'ankle power']","[{'cui': 'C0008059', 'cui_str': 'Child'}, {'cui': 'C0205653', 'cui_str': 'Adolescent'}, {'cui': 'C0205092', 'cui_str': 'Unilateral'}, {'cui': 'C3838784', 'cui_str': 'Bilateral cerebral palsy'}, {'cui': 'C0620347', 'cui_str': 'compound A 12'}, {'cui': 'C0439230', 'cui_str': 'week'}, {'cui': 'C0035953', 'cui_str': 'Running'}, {'cui': 'C0018106', 'cui_str': 'Government Programs'}, {'cui': 'C0007789', 'cui_str': 'Cerebral palsy'}]","[{'cui': 'C0011991', 'cui_str': 'Diarrhea'}, {'cui': 'C0040607', 'cui_str': 'Training Programs'}, {'cui': 'C0184661', 'cui_str': 'Procedure'}]","[{'cui': 'C0025611', 'cui_str': 'Methamphetamine'}, {'cui': 'C0011991', 'cui_str': 'Diarrhea'}, {'cui': 'C1444754', 'cui_str': 'Length'}, {'cui': 'C0016504', 'cui_str': 'Foot structure'}, {'cui': 'C0038452', 'cui_str': 'Employee Strikes'}, {'cui': 'C0449774', 'cui_str': 'Patterns'}, {'cui': 'C0444505', 'cui_str': 'Peak'}, {'cui': 'C0003086', 'cui_str': 'Tarsus'}, {'cui': 'C0079411', 'cui_str': 'Generations'}, {'cui': 'C0019552', 'cui_str': 'Bone structure of hip'}, {'cui': 'C0677549', 'cui_str': 'Gross motor functions'}, {'cui': 'C0008902', 'cui_str': 'Classification'}, {'cui': 'C0175659', 'cui_str': 'Scale'}, {'cui': 'C0441889', 'cui_str': 'Levels'}]",38.0,0.0435438,"In sprinting, children in Gross Motor Function Classification Scale levels I and II in the intervention group maintained ankle power (level","[{'ForeName': 'A', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Chappell', 'Affiliation': 'School of Physiotherapy and Exercise Science, Curtin University, Bentley, Western Australia, Australia; Ability Centre, Coolbinia, Western Australia, Australia.

1652,32416432,Effects of an exercise intervention for patients with advanced inoperable lung cancer undergoing chemotherapy: A randomized clinical trial.,"OBJECTIVE
Exercise can improve treatment-related side effects, quality of life, and function in patients with various types of cancer; however, more evidence is needed for patients with advanced inoperable lung cancer.
MATERIAL AND METHODS
We randomized 218 patients with advanced inoperable lung cancer to a 12-week supervised, structured exercise training program (aerobic, strength, and relaxation training) twice weekly versus usual care. Primary outcome was change in maximal oxygen uptake (VO 2 peak). Secondary outcomes were muscle strength, functional capacity, forced expiratory volume in 1 s, health-related quality of life, anxiety, and depression.
RESULTS
There was no significant difference between the intervention and control groups in VO 2 peak. There was a significant improvement in muscle strength. There was also a significant difference between the two for social well-being (Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Lung, FACT-L), anxiety, and depression.
CONCLUSION
There was a significant reduction in the level of anxiety and depression and a significant increase in all muscle strength outcomes in the intervention group compared to patients randomized to usual care. There was a significant difference between the groups for social well-being. The primary outcome did not show a significant improvement in VO 2 peak.

1654,26718567,Shared genetic susceptibility of vascular-related biomarkers with ischemic and recurrent stroke.,"OBJECTIVE
To investigate the genetic contributors to cerebrovascular disease and variation in biomarkers of ischemic stroke.
METHODS
The Vitamin Intervention for Stroke Prevention Trial (VISP) was a randomized, controlled clinical trial of B vitamin supplementation to prevent recurrent stroke, myocardial infarction, or death. VISP collected baseline measures of C-reactive protein (CRP), fibrinogen, creatinine, prothrombin fragments F1+2, thrombin-antithrombin complex, and thrombomodulin prior to treatment initiation. Genome-wide association scans were conducted for these traits and follow-up replication analyses were performed.
RESULTS
We detected an association between CRP single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and circulating CRP levels (most associated SNP, rs2592902, p = 1.14 × 10(-9)) in 2,100 VISP participants. We discovered a novel association for CRP level in the AKR1D1 locus (rs2589998, p = 7.3 × 10(-8), approaching genome-wide significance) that also is an expression quantitative trait locus for CRP gene expression. We replicated previously identified associations of fibrinogen with SNPs in the FGB and LEPR loci. CRP-associated SNPs and CRP levels were significantly associated with risk of ischemic stroke and recurrent stroke in VISP as well as specific stroke subtypes in METASTROKE. Fibrinogen levels but not fibrinogen-associated SNPs were also found to be associated with recurrent stroke in VISP.
CONCLUSIONS
Our data identify a genetic contribution to inflammatory and hemostatic biomarkers in a stroke population. Additionally, our results suggest shared genetic contributions to circulating CRP levels measured poststroke and risk for incident and recurrent ischemic stroke.

1656,32416434,The immediate effects of a shoulder brace on muscle activity and scapular kinematics in subjects with shoulder impingement syndrome and rounded shoulder posture: A randomized crossover design.,"BACKGROUND
Round shoulder posture (RSP) is one of the potential risks for shoulder impingement syndrome (SIS) due to alignment deviation of the scapula. Evidence on how the characteristics of a shoulder brace affecting the degree of RSP, shoulder kinematics, and associated muscle activity during movements is limited.
RESEARCH QUESTION
The purposes of this study were (1) to compare the effects of a shoulder brace on clinical RSP measurements, muscle activities and scapular kinematics during arm movements in subjects with shoulder impingement syndrome (SIS) and RSP; and (2) to compare the effects of two configurations (parallel and diagonal) and two tensions (comfortable and forced tension) of the brace straps on muscle activities and scapular kinematics during arm movements in subjects with SIS and RSP.
METHODS
Twenty-four participants (12 males; 12 females) with SIS and RSP were randomly assigned into 2 groups (comfortable then forced, and forced then comfortable) with 2 strap configurations in each tension condition. The pectoralis minor index (PMI), acromial distance (AD) and shoulder angle (SA) were used to assess the degree of RSP. Three-dimensional electromagnetic motion analysis and electromyography were used to record the scapular kinematics and muscle activity during arm movements.
RESULTS
All clinical measurements with the brace were significantly improved (p < 0.05). Under forced tension, muscle activities were higher with the diagonal configuration than with the parallel configuration in the lower trapezius (LT) (1.2-2.3% MVIC, p < 0.05) and serratus anterior (SA) (2.3% MVIC, p = 0.015). For upward rotation and posterior tilting of the scapula, the diagonal configuration was larger than the parallel configuration (1.5°, p = 0.038; 0.4°-0.5°, p < 0.05, respectively).
SIGNIFICANCE
Different characteristics of the straps of the shoulder brace could alter muscle activity and scapular kinematics at different angles during arm movement. Based on the clinical treatment preference, the application of a shoulder brace with a diagonal configuration and forced tension is suggested for SIS and RSP subjects.",2020,All clinical measurements with the brace were significantly improved (p < 0.05).,"['subjects with SIS and RSP.\nMETHODS\n\n\nTwenty-four participants (12 males; 12 females) with SIS and RSP', 'subjects with shoulder impingement syndrome (SIS) and RSP; and (2', 'subjects with shoulder impingement syndrome and rounded shoulder posture']","['Round shoulder posture (RSP', 'shoulder brace', 'two configurations (parallel and diagonal) and two tensions (comfortable and forced tension) of the brace straps']","['pectoralis minor index (PMI), acromial distance (AD) and shoulder angle (SA', 'Under forced tension, muscle activities', 'muscle activity and scapular kinematics', 'clinical RSP measurements, muscle activities and scapular kinematics', 'serratus anterior (SA) ']","[{'cui': 'C0376685', 'cui_str': 'Impingement syndrome of shoulder region'}, {'cui': 'C0332490', 'cui_str': 'Round shape'}, {'cui': 'C0037004', 'cui_str': 'Shoulder region structure'}, {'cui': 'C0872410', 'cui_str': 'Posturing'}, {'cui': 'C0025663', 'cui_str': 'Method'}, {'cui': 'C3715070', 'cui_str': '24'}, {'cui': 'C0086582', 'cui_str': 'Male'}, {'cui': 'C0043210', 'cui_str': 'Woman'}]","[{'cui': 'C0332490', 'cui_str': 'Round shape'}, {'cui': 'C0037004', 'cui_str': 'Shoulder region structure'}, {'cui': 'C0872410', 'cui_str': 'Posturing'}, {'cui': 'C0006086', 'cui_str': 'Brace'}, {'cui': 'C0449830', 'cui_str': 'With configuration'}, {'cui': 'C0443198', 'cui_str': 'Diagonal'}, {'cui': 'C0233494', 'cui_str': 'Tension'}, {'cui': 'C0443221', 'cui_str': 'Forced'}, {'cui': 'C0183631', 'cui_str': 'Strap'}]","[{'cui': 'C0224347', 'cui_str': 'Pectoralis minor muscle structure'}, {'cui': 'C0600653', 'cui_str': 'Indexes'}, {'cui': 'C0012751', 'cui_str': 'Distance'}, {'cui': 'C0037004', 'cui_str': 'Shoulder region structure'}, {'cui': 'C0205143', 'cui_str': 'Angular'}, {'cui': 'C0224349', 'cui_str': 'Structure of serratus anterior muscle'}, {'cui': 'C0443221', 'cui_str': 'Forced'}, {'cui': 'C0233494', 'cui_str': 'Tension'}, {'cui': 'C0026845', 'cui_str': 'Muscle tissue'}, {'cui': 'C0026606', 'cui_str': 'Physical activity'}, {'cui': 'C0600169', 'cui_str': 'Kinematics'}, {'cui': 'C2717795', 'cui_str': 'Clinical Rounds'}, {'cui': 'C0872410', 'cui_str': 'Posturing'}, {'cui': 'C0242485', 'cui_str': 'Measurement'}]",24.0,0.0621097,All clinical measurements with the brace were significantly improved (p < 0.05).,"[{'ForeName': 'Yuan-Chun', 'Initials': 'YC', 'LastName': 'Chiu', 'Affiliation': 'School and Graduate Institute of Physical Therapy, College of Medicine, National Taiwan University, Taiwan.'}, {'ForeName': 'Yung-Shen', 'Initials': 'YS', 'LastName': 'Tsai', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Sports Sciences and Institute of Sports Equipment Technology, University of Taipei, Taiwan.'}, {'ForeName': 'Chien-Lung', 'Initials': 'CL', 'LastName': 'Shen', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Products, Taiwan Textile Research Institute, Taiwan.'}, {'ForeName': 'Tyng-Guey', 'Initials': 'TG', 'LastName': 'Wang', 'Affiliation': 'Division of Physical Therapy, Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, National Taiwan University Hospital, Taiwan.'}, {'ForeName': 'Jing-Lan', 'Initials': 'JL', 'LastName': 'Yang', 'Affiliation': 'Division of Physical Therapy, Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, National Taiwan University Hospital, Taiwan.

Pulmonary complications, respiratory symptoms and depression are common occurrences which contribute to the morbidity and mortality seen in individuals living with HIV/AIDS. This study investigated the effect of aerobic exercise on the pulmonary functions, respiratory symptoms and psychological status of people living with HIV.
METHODS
This study was conducted in Lagos, Nigeria from October 2014 to May 2015. Forty eligible individuals with HIV aged 18 yr and above participated, of which 33 cooperated to the end. They were recruited from the HIV/AIDS Prevention and Intervention Initiative (APIN) Clinic, Lagos University Teaching Hospital, Nigeria and were randomly assigned to either the study or the control group. The study group received aerobic exercise training three times a week for six weeks and counselling while the control group received only counselling. Pulmonary functions, respiratory symptoms and psychological status were evaluated at baseline and at six weeks. Inferential statistics of paired and independent t-test were used to analyse the data.
RESULTS
Comparison of mean changes in the pulmonary variables of the study group with those of the control group showed significant differences in all but in the respiratory rate (RR) - [Forced Expiratory Volume in one second: P=0.001, Forced Vital Capacity: P=0.001, Peak Expiratory Flow: P=0.001]. There were also significant differences between the mean changes in respiratory symptoms (P=0.001) and depressive symptoms (P=0.001) of study group and those of the control group.

1658,32416538,"Peer outreach point-of-care testing as a bridge to hepatitis C care for people who inject drugs in Toronto, Canada.","BACKGROUND
People who inject drugs have high rates of hepatitis C (HCV) and yet many remain undiagnosed and untreated. HCV treatment guidelines and elimination strategies recommend task-shifting to expand where, and by whom, HCV testing and care is delivered.
METHODS
A randomized controlled trial design was used to evaluate if point-of-care (POC) HCV antibody testing by peer outreach workers outside of health and social service spaces would improve engagement in HCV care. People with a lifetime history of injection drug use without prior knowledge of HCV antibody status were randomized to receive HCV outreach plus either POC or referral to community-based HCV program for testing as usual. The study was co-designed by people with lived experience of HCV.
RESULTS
920 people were approached to participate over 14 weeks. After refusals, withdrawals and removal of duplicates, there were 380 study participants. Outreach took place primarily in public spaces (66%) such as parks, coffee shops and apartment lobbies. Participants reported very high rates of poverty, housing instability and recent injection drug use. Despite being at high risk for HCV, 61% had no history or knowledge of past HCV testing (n = 230). Of those who received a POC test 77/195 (39%) were positive for HCV antibodies. There was no change in rates of engagement in HCV care among those who received the POC (n = 6; 3%) compared to those who did not (n = 5; 3%).
CONCLUSION
Peer outreach workers were able to efficiently reach a marginalized group of individuals who had a high HCV antibody prevalence and low rates of prior HCV testing. This improved participants' knowledge of their HCV antibody status, but that knowledge in itself did not lead to any change in participant's subsequent engagement in HCV care. Future work is required to evaluate strategies such as incentives or peer navigators to improve linkage to HCV care after diagnosis.",2020,Peer outreach workers were able to efficiently reach a marginalized group of individuals who had a high HCV antibody prevalence and low rates of prior HCV testing.,"['people with lived experience of HCV', '920 people were approached to participate over 14 weeks', 'by peer outreach workers outside of health and social service spaces', 'People with a lifetime history of injection drug use without prior knowledge of HCV antibody status', 'people who inject drugs in Toronto, Canada']","['HCV outreach plus either POC or referral to community-based HCV program', 'care (POC) HCV antibody testing']",['rates of engagement in HCV care'],"[{'cui': 'C0027361', 'cui_str': 'Person'}, {'cui': 'C0023672', 'cui_str': 'Life Experiences'}, {'cui': 'C0019196', 'cui_str': 'Viral hepatitis C'}, {'cui': 'C1292724', 'cui_str': 'Procedural approach'}, {'cui': 'C0439230', 'cui_str': 'week'}, {'cui': 'C1306056', 'cui_str': 'Worker'}, {'cui': 'C0205101', 'cui_str': 'External'}, {'cui': 'C0018684', 'cui_str': 'Health'}, {'cui': 'C0037441', 'cui_str': 'Social Service'}, {'cui': 'C0282173', 'cui_str': 'Space (Astronomy)'}, {'cui': 'C0262926', 'cui_str': 'History of'}, {'cui': 'C0021485', 'cui_str': 'Injection of therapeutic agent'}, {'cui': 'C0449889', 'cui_str': 'Drug used'}, {'cui': 'C0332152', 'cui_str': 'Before'}, {'cui': 'C0376554', 'cui_str': 'Knowledge'}, {'cui': 'C0166049', 'cui_str': 'Antibody to hepatitis C virus'}, {'cui': 'C0449438', 'cui_str': 'Status'}, {'cui': 'C1720154', 'cui_str': 'Inject'}, {'cui': 'C0013227', 'cui_str': 'Pharmaceutical / biologic product'}, {'cui': 'C0006823', 'cui_str': 'Canada'}]","[{'cui': 'C0019196', 'cui_str': 'Viral hepatitis C'}, {'cui': 'C0332287', 'cui_str': 'With'}, {'cui': 'C0282664', 'cui_str': 'Point-of-Care'}, {'cui': 'C2585021', 'cui_str': 'Referral to'}, {'cui': 'C0009462', 'cui_str': 'Community'}, {'cui': 'C0002055', 'cui_str': 'Alkali'}, {'cui': 'C0018106', 'cui_str': 'Government Programs'}, {'cui': 'C0166049', 'cui_str': 'Antibody to hepatitis C virus'}, {'cui': 'C0392366', 'cui_str': 'Tests'}]","[{'cui': 'C0425152', 'cui_str': 'Engaged to be married'}, {'cui': 'C0019196', 'cui_str': 'Viral hepatitis C'}]",920.0,0.0380034,Peer outreach workers were able to efficiently reach a marginalized group of individuals who had a high HCV antibody prevalence and low rates of prior HCV testing.,"[{'ForeName': 'Jennifer', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Broad', 'Affiliation': 'South Riverdale Community Health Centre, 955 Queen St East, Toronto, ON, M4M 3P3, Canada.'}, {'ForeName': 'Kate', 'Initials': 'K', 'LastName': 'Mason', 'Affiliation': 'South Riverdale Community Health Centre, 955 Queen St East, Toronto, ON, M4M 3P3, Canada.'}, {'ForeName': 'Mary', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Guyton', 'Affiliation': 'Sherbourne Health, 333 Sherbourne St, Toronto, ON M5A 2S5, Canada.'}, {'ForeName': 'Bernadette', 'Initials': 'B', 'LastName': 'Lettner', 'Affiliation': 'South Riverdale Community Health Centre, 955 Queen St East, Toronto, ON, M4M 3P3, Canada; Regent Park Community Health Centre, 465 Dundas St East, Toronto, ON M5A 2B2, Canada.'}, {'ForeName': 'John', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Matelski', 'Affiliation': 'University Health Network, 235 - 200 Elizabeth St, Toronto, ON M5G 2C4, Canada.'}, {'ForeName': 'Jeff', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Powis', 'Affiliation': 'Michael Garron Hospital, 825 Coxwell Ave, Toronto, ON M4C 3E7, Canada.

1659,31141427,Temporal Patterns of Knee-Extensor Isokinetic Torque Strength in Male and Female Athletes Following Comparison of Anterior Thigh and Knee Cooling Over a Rewarming Period.,"CONTEXT
The effect of local cooling on muscle strength presents conflicting debates, with literature undecided as to the potential implications for injury, when returning to play following cryotherapy application.
OBJECTIVE
To investigate concentric muscle strength following local cooling over the anterior thigh compared with the knee joint in males and females and the temporal pattern over a 30-minute rewarming period.
DESIGN
Repeated-measures crossover design.
METHOD
Twelve healthy participants randomly assigned to receive cooling intervention on one location, directly over either the anterior thigh or the knee, returning 1 week later to receive the cooling intervention on opposite location. Muscle strength measured via an isokinetic dynamometer at multiple time points (immediately post, 10-, 20-, and 30-min post) coincided with measurement of skin surface temperature (Tsk) using a noninvasive infrared camera.
RESULTS
Significant main effects for time (P ≤ .001, η2 = .126) with preice application higher than all other time points (P ≤ .05) were demonstrated for both peak torque and average torque. There were also significant main effects for isokinetic testing speed, sex of the participant, and position of the ice application for both peak torque and average torque (P ≤ .05). Statistically significant decreases in Tsk were reported in both gender groups across all time points compared with preintervention Tsk for the anterior thigh and knee (P < .05).
CONCLUSIONS
Reductions reported for concentric peak torque and average torque knee-extensor strength in males and females did not fully recover to baseline measures at 30-minute postcryotherapy interventions.

1661,31385880,Ultra-Protective Ventilation Reduces Biotrauma in Patients on Venovenous Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation for Severe Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome.,"INTRODUCTION
Ventilator settings for patients with severe acute respiratory distress syndrome supported by venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation are currently set arbitrarily. The impact on serum and pulmonary biotrauma markers of the transition to ultra-protective ventilation settings following extracorporeal membrane oxygenation implantation, and different mechanical ventilation strategies while on extracorporeal membrane oxygenation were investigated.
DESIGN
Randomized clinical trial.
SETTINGS
Nine-month monocentric study.
PATIENTS
Severe acute respiratory distress syndrome patients on venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation.
INTERVENTIONS
After starting extracorporeal membrane oxygenation, patients were switched to the bi-level positive airway pressure mode with 1 second of 24 cm H2O high pressure and 2 seconds of 12 cm H2O low pressure for 24 hours. A computer-generated allocation sequence randomized patients to receive each of the following three experimental steps: 1) high pressure 24 cm H2O and low pressure 20 cm H2O (very high positive end-expiratory pressure-very low driving pressure); 2) high pressure 24 cm H2O and low pressure 5 cm H2O (low positive end-expiratory pressure-high driving pressure); and 3) high pressure 17 cm H2O and low pressure 5 cm H2O (low positive end-expiratory pressure-low driving pressure). Plasma and bronchoalveolar lavage soluble receptor for advanced glycation end-products, plasma interleukin-6, and monocyte chemotactic protein-1 were sampled preextracorporeal membrane oxygenation and after 12 hours at each step.
MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS
Sixteen patients on ECMO after 7 days (1-11 d) of mechanical ventilation were included. ""Ultra-protective"" mechanical ventilation settings following ECMO initiation were associated with significantly lower plasma sRAGE, interleukin-6, and monocyte chemotactic protein-1 concentrations. Plasma sRAGE and cytokines were comparable within each on-ECMO experimental step, but the lowest bronchoalveolar lavage sRAGE levels were obtained at minimal driving pressure.
CONCLUSIONS
ECMO allows ultra- protective ventilation, which combines significantly lower plateau pressure, tidalvolume, and driving pressure. This ventilation strategy significantly limited pulmonary biotrauma, which couldtherefore decrease ventilator-induced lung injury. However, the optimal ultra-protective ventilation strategy once ECMO is initiated remains undetermined and warrants further investigations.

1662,31385881,Randomized Clinical Trial of an ICU Recovery Pilot Program for Survivors of Critical Illness.,"OBJECTIVES
To examine the effect of an interdisciplinary ICU recovery program on process measures and clinical outcomes.
DESIGN
A prospective, single-center, randomized pilot trial.
SETTING
Academic, tertiary-care medical center.
PATIENTS
Adult patients admitted to the medical ICU for at least 48 hours with a predicted risk of 30-day same-hospital readmission of at least 15%.
INTERVENTIONS
Patients randomized to the ICU recovery program group were offered a structured 10-intervention program, including an inpatient visit by a nurse practitioner, an informational pamphlet, a 24 hours a day, 7 days a week phone number for the recovery team, and an outpatient ICU recovery clinic visit with a critical care physician, nurse practitioner, pharmacist, psychologist, and case manager. For patients randomized to the usual care group, all aspects of care were determined by treating clinicians.
MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS
Among the primary analysis of enrolled patients who survived to hospital discharge, patients randomized to the ICU recovery program (n = 111) and usual care (n = 121) were similar at baseline. Patients in the ICU recovery program group received a median of two interventions compared with one intervention in the usual care group (p < 0.001). A total of 16 patients (14.4%) in the ICU recovery program group and 26 patients (21.5%) in the usual care group were readmitted to the study hospital within 30 days of discharge (p = 0.16). For these patients, the median time to readmission was 21.5 days (interquartile range, 11.5-26.2 d) in the ICU recovery program group and 7 days (interquartile range, 4-21.2 d) in the usual care group (p = 0.03). Four patients (3.6%) in the ICU recovery program and 14 patients (11.6%) in the usual care group were readmitted within 7 days of hospital discharge (p = 0.02). The composite outcome of death or readmission within 30 days of hospital discharge occurred in 20 patients (18%) in the ICU recovery program group and 36 patients (29.8%) in usual care group (p = 0.04).
CONCLUSIONS

1663,31499384,The clinical role of VeriStrat testing in patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer considered unfit for first-line platinum-based chemotherapy.,"PURPOSE
We previously demonstrated that the median survival of patients with poor prognosis non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) considered unfit for first-line platinum chemotherapy was <4 months. We evaluated whether VeriStrat could be used as a prognostic or predictive biomarker in this population.
EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN
We conducted a randomised double-blind trial among patients with untreated advanced NSCLC considered unfit for platinum chemotherapy because of poor performance status (PS) or multiple comorbidities. All patients received active supportive care (ASC) and were treated with either oral erlotinib or placebo daily. Five hundred twenty-seven patients had plasma samples for VeriStrat classification: good (VeriStrat Good [VSG]) or poor (VeriStrat Poor [VSP]). Main end-point was overall survival.
RESULTS
Fifty-five percent patients had VSG, and 83% had Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) 2-3 at baseline. VeriStrat was strongly associated with survival. Among patients managed with ASC only, the adjusted hazard ratio (HR) was 0.54 (p < 0.001) for VSG versus VSP. The association was consistent across patient factors: HR = 0.25 (p = 0.004) and HR = 0.56 (p < 0.001) for ECOG 0-1 and 2-3, respectively, HR = 0.49 (0070 < 0.001) for age≥75 years and HR = 0.59 (p = 0.007) for stage IV. Several ECOG 2-3 patients had long survival: 2-year survival was 8% for VSG patients who had ASC, compared with 0% for VSP. VeriStrat status did not predict benefit from erlotinib treatment because the HRs for erlotinib versus placebo were similar between VSG and VSP patients.
CONCLUSIONS
VeriStrat was not a predictive marker for survival when considering first-line erlotinib for patients with NSCLC who had poor PS and were not recommended for platinum doublet therapies. However, VeriStrat was an independent prognostic marker of survival. It represents an objective measurement that could be considered alongside other patient factors to provide a more refined assessment of prognosis for this particular patient group. VSG patients could be selected for treatment trials because of better survival, while VSP patients can continue to be treated conservatively or offered trials of less toxic agents.

1664,31499383,Impact of dose and duration of therapy on dexamethasone pharmacokinetics in childhood acute lymphoblastic leukaemia-a report from the UKALL 2011 trial.,"INTRODUCTION
The use of dexamethasone in acute lymphoblastic leukaemia therapy contributes to short- and long-term toxicities. The UKALL 2011 randomised trial investigated whether a more intense dexamethasone dose (10 mg/m 2 /d x 14d, short vs 6 mg/m 2 /d x 28d, standard) would lead to a more rapid cytoreduction and reduced adverse effects associated with longer durations of steroids in induction. The impact of dose and duration on dexamethasone pharmacokinetics was investigated.
METHODS
Blood samples were obtained on one of the first three and last three days of induction dexamethasone dosing at time points up to 8 h after oral administration. Plasma dexamethasone levels were quantified in 1084 plasma samples obtained from 174 children and a population pharmacokinetic model developed.
RESULTS
Drug exposure varied significantly between patients, with a >12-fold variation in AUC 0-12h values and a marked overlap in dexamethasone exposures between dose levels. Intuitively, AUC 0-12h was significantly higher with short dosing (10 mg/m 2 /d), but cumulative exposure was significantly higher with standard dosing over 28 days, after a higher cumulative dose. Concomitant rasburicase administration was associated with a 60% higher dexamethasone clearance. Day 8 bone marrow response was comparable between dosing arms, but those with <5% blast count exhibited a greater mean dexamethasone exposure than those with >5%. No statistical differences were observed between arms in terms of steroid-related toxicity or minimal residual disease at the end of induction.
CONCLUSION
The potential significance of dexamethasone AUC 0-12h on early response and higher cumulative exposure on the standard arm suggest that duration of therapy and exposure may be more important factors than absolute dose from a clinical pharmacology perspective.",2019,"No statistical differences were observed between arms in terms of steroid-related toxicity or minimal residual disease at the end of induction.

1665,32416635,The efficacy and safety of fractional radiofrequency nanoneedle system in the treatment of atrophic acne scars in Asians.,"BACKGROUND
Multiple treatment modalities have been developed to treat atrophic acne scars with varying degrees of success. Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH) after acne scar treatments remain a major concern in Asian patients. Fractional radiofrequency (FRF) has been used in many dermatological skin conditions including acne scars.
OBJECTIVE
To determine the efficacy and safety of FRF nanoneedle system in the treatment of acne scars in Asians.
METHODS
This is a prospective, evaluator-blinded study with 25 subjects diagnosed with moderate to severe acne scarring. All subjects received 3 monthly treatments of the FRF nanoneedle system on both cheeks. Primary outcome was the clinical improvement of acne scars graded by 2 blinded dermatologists at baseline, 1-, 3- and 6-month follow-up. Objective scar volume analysis was done using ultraviolet A (UVA) light video camera. Subjects' self-assessment, pain score and adverse events were also recorded.
RESULTS
Twenty-three out of 25 subjects completed the study and attended all follow-up. Clinical improvement of acne scars was observed as early as 1-month follow-up. Objective evaluation of acne scar volume decreased significantly on all follow-up compared to baseline (p<0.005). Majority of the subjects (48%) reported marked improvement in their acne scars. Adverse events such as pain, erythema, burning sensation, edema, scab formation and PIH were mild and temporary.
CONCLUSIONS
FRF nanoneedle system is a safe and effective treatment for acne scars in Asians. However, despite the significant changes in the scar volume, caution should be used to avoid excessive coagulation resulting in PIH.",2020,Objective evaluation of acne scar volume decreased significantly on all follow-up compared to baseline (p<0.005).,"['Asian patients', 'acne scars in Asians', '25 subjects diagnosed with moderate to severe acne scarring', 'Twenty-three out of 25 subjects completed the study and attended all follow-up', 'atrophic acne scars in Asians']","['ultraviolet A (UVA) light video camera', 'FRF nanoneedle system', 'fractional radiofrequency nanoneedle system', 'Fractional radiofrequency (FRF']","['clinical improvement of acne scars graded by 2 blinded dermatologists', 'acne scars', 'acne scar volume', ""Subjects' self-assessment, pain score and adverse events"", 'Adverse events such as pain, erythema, burning sensation, edema, scab formation and PIH were mild and temporary', 'efficacy and safety']","[{'cui': 'C0078988', 'cui_str': 'Oriental'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patient'}, {'cui': 'C0423783', 'cui_str': 'Acne scar'}, {'cui': 'C0011900', 'cui_str': 'Diagnosis'}, {'cui': 'C1299393', 'cui_str': 'Moderate to severe'}, {'cui': 'C0001144', 'cui_str': 'Acne vulgaris'}, {'cui': 'C0450348', 'cui_str': '23'}, {'cui': 'C0205197', 'cui_str': 'Complete'}, {'cui': 'C0008972', 'cui_str': 'Clinical Study'}, {'cui': 'C1456498', 'cui_str': 'Attended'}, {'cui': 'C0589120', 'cui_str': 'Follow-up status'}, {'cui': 'C1274728', 'cui_str': 'Atrophic acne scar'}]","[{'cui': 'C1532472', 'cui_str': 'Ultra-violet'}, {'cui': 'C0023693', 'cui_str': 'Light'}, {'cui': 'C0042655', 'cui_str': 'Video'}, {'cui': 'C0179533', 'cui_str': 'Camera'}, {'cui': 'C0085104', 'cui_str': 'Drug Targeting'}]","[{'cui': 'C0205210', 'cui_str': 'Clinical'}, {'cui': 'C0423783', 'cui_str': 'Acne scar'}, {'cui': 'C0441800', 'cui_str': 'Grade'}, {'cui': 'C0456909', 'cui_str': 'Blindness'}, {'cui': 'C0259831', 'cui_str': 'Dermatologist'}, {'cui': 'C0449468', 'cui_str': 'Volume'}, {'cui': 'C0036591', 'cui_str': 'Self Assessment'}, {'cui': 'C0582148', 'cui_str': 'Pain score'}, {'cui': 'C0877248', 'cui_str': 'Adverse event'}, {'cui': 'C0030193', 'cui_str': 'Pain'}, {'cui': 'C0041834', 'cui_str': 'Erythema'}, {'cui': 'C0085624', 'cui_str': 'Burning sensation'}, {'cui': 'C0013604', 'cui_str': 'Edema'}, {'cui': 'C0074125', 'cui_str': 'SCAB protocol'}, {'cui': 'C0220781', 'cui_str': 'Anabolism'}, {'cui': 'C0333616', 'cui_str': 'Postinflammatory hyperpigmentation'}, {'cui': 'C1513302', 'cui_str': 'Common terminology criteria for adverse events grade 1'}, {'cui': 'C0205374', 'cui_str': 'Transitory'}, {'cui': 'C1280519', 'cui_str': 'Effectiveness'}, {'cui': 'C0036043', 'cui_str': 'Safety'}]",25.0,0.0167839,Objective evaluation of acne scar volume decreased significantly on all follow-up compared to baseline (p<0.005).,"[{'ForeName': 'Sunatra', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Nitayavardhana', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Dermatology, Faculty of Medicine Siriraj Hospital, Mahidol University, Bangkok, Thailand.'}, {'ForeName': 'Rungsima', 'Initials': 'R', 'LastName': 'Wanitphakdeedecha', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Dermatology, Faculty of Medicine Siriraj Hospital, Mahidol University, Bangkok, Thailand.'}, {'ForeName': 'Janice Natasha C', 'Initials': 'JNC', 'LastName': 'Ng', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Dermatology, Faculty of Medicine Siriraj Hospital, Mahidol University, Bangkok, Thailand.'}, {'ForeName': 'Sasima', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Eimpunth', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Dermatology, Faculty of Medicine Siriraj Hospital, Mahidol University, Bangkok, Thailand.'}, {'ForeName': 'Woraphong', 'Initials': 'W', 'LastName': 'Manuskiatti', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Dermatology, Faculty of Medicine Siriraj Hospital, Mahidol University, Bangkok, Thailand.'}]",Journal of cosmetic dermatology,['10.1111/jocd.13484']
1666,31558370,Effect of the Emotional Freedom Techniques on anger symptoms in Hwabyung patients: A comparison with the progressive muscle relaxation technique in a pilot randomized controlled trial.,"CONTEXT
Hwabyung is a psychosomatic disease resulting from the suppression of anger over an extended period. The Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT) are meridian-based psychotherapy known to cure many psychosomatic diseases, and progressive muscle relaxation (PMR) is a therapeutic method that relieves physical and psychological tension by repeated tensing and relaxation of the muscles.
OBJECT
In this study, we compared the effects of EFT and PMR in patients with Hwabyung.
DESIGN
40 patients were enrolled and randomized to receive 4 weeks of group sessions with either EFT (n = 20) or PMR (n = 20). Evaluations were conducted pre- and post-treatment and at 4-week and 24-week follow-ups after session end.
MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES
The Hwabyung Scale, Visual Analogue Scale of Hwabyung Symptoms (VAS-HS), Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI), and State-Trait Anger Expression Inventory (STAXI) were administered as self-report tools. The analysis excluded 8 patients who never attended treatment and 1 patient meeting the exclusion criteria.
RESULT
EFT (n = 15) and PMR (n = 16) improved Hwabyung symptoms (-13.95% and -11.46%, respectively), state anxiety (-12.57% and -12.64%, respectively), and depression (-32.11% and -18.68%, respectively) (p < 0.05 for all). Trait anger improved in EFT group (-13.4%, p = 0.004). There were no significant differences between the groups (p > 0.05) except for trait anger at post-treatment (p = 0.022 for between group).

1668,32416611,A comparative clinical & histopathological pilot study of different fractional CO2 laser parameters in treatment of atrophic linear scars.,"BACKGROUND
Atrophic scars cause significant patient morbidity. Fractional photothermolysis is one of the most effective treatment options used to resurface scars of different aetiologies.
OBJECTIVES
To assess the efficacy and safety of different fractional ablative CO 2 Laser parameters in treatment of linear atrophic depressed post-traumatic facial scars in adult male patients.
METHODS
A prospective pilot study of 20 adult male patients (skin types Π- Ⅳ, aged 18-45) with post traumatic atrophic linear scars were divided into 2 groups each comprising 10 patients receiving different fractional CO2 laser parameters. Both groups received 3 laser sessions; one month apart and were followed for 2 months after the last treatment session. Clinical and histological assessments were done to all patients before treatment and 2 months after the last treatment session. Also, patient satisfaction and side effects were recorded.
RESULTS
The study showed statistically significant reduction in average scar volume in both groups (p< 0.01); with reduction in depth more obvious than reduction in width or length in both groups. There was a highly significant difference in overall scar improvement represented by scar volume between both groups (P<0.01) with an average reduction in scar volume of 42.85 % in group (1) compared to 35.29 % in group (2). Also, there was a highly statistically significant increase in both epidermal, papillary and reticular dermis thickness in both groups after treatment. However, the difference between both groups was non-significant. Side effects were mild, well tolerated and transient.

1669,30922751,Changes in vascular and inflammatory biomarkers after exercise rehabilitation in patients with symptomatic peripheral artery disease.,"OBJECTIVE
Home-based exercise is an alternative exercise mode to a structured supervised program to improve symptoms in patients with peripheral artery disease (PAD), but little is known about whether the slow-paced and less intense home program also elicits changes in vascular and inflammatory biomarkers. In an exploratory analysis from a randomized controlled trial, we compared changes in vascular and inflammatory biomarkers in patients with symptomatic PAD (typical and atypical of claudication) after home-based exercise and supervised exercise programs and in an attention-control group.
METHODS
A total of 114 patients were randomized into one of the three groups (n = 38 per group). Two groups performed exercise interventions, consisting of home-based and supervised programs of intermittent walking to mild to moderate claudication pain for 12 weeks; a third group performed light resistance training as a nonwalking attention-control group. Before and after intervention, patients were characterized on treadmill performance and endothelial effects of circulating factors present in sera by a cell culture-based bioassay on primary human arterial endothelial cells, and they were further evaluated on circulating vascular and inflammatory biomarkers.
RESULTS
Treadmill peak walking time increased (P = .008) in the two exercise groups but not in the control group (P > .05). Cultured endothelial cell apoptosis decreased after home-based exercise (P < .001) and supervised exercise (P = .007), and the change in the exercise groups combined was different from that in the control group (P = .005). For circulating biomarkers, increases were found in hydroxyl radical antioxidant capacity (P = .003) and vascular endothelial growth factor A (P = .037), and decreases were observed in E-selectin (P = .007) and blood glucose concentration (P = .012) after home-based exercise only. The changes in hydroxyl radical antioxidant capacity (P = .005), vascular endothelial growth factor A (P = .008), and E-selectin (P = .034) in the exercise groups combined were different from those in the control group.
CONCLUSIONS
This exploratory analysis found that both home-based and supervised exercise programs are efficacious to decrease cultured endothelial cell apoptosis in patients with symptomatic PAD. Furthermore, a monitored home-based exercise program elicits additional vascular benefits by improving circulating markers of endogenous antioxidant capacity, angiogenesis, endothelium-derived inflammation, and blood glucose concentration in patients with symptomatic PAD. The novel clinical significance is that important trends were found in this exploratory analysis that a contemporary home-based exercise program and a traditional supervised exercise program may favorably improve vascular and inflammatory biomarkers in addition to the well-described ambulatory improvements in symptomatic patients with PAD.",2019,"For circulating biomarkers, increases were found in hydroxyl radical antioxidant capacity (P = .003) and vascular endothelial growth factor A (P = .037), and decreases were observed in E-selectin (P = .007) and blood glucose concentration (P = .012) after home-based exercise only.","['patients with symptomatic PAD', 'A total of 114 patients', 'patients with symptomatic peripheral artery disease', 'patients with peripheral artery disease (PAD', 'symptomatic patients with PAD', 'patients with symptomatic PAD (typical and atypical of claudication) after home-based']","['exercise interventions, consisting of home-based and supervised programs of intermittent walking to mild to moderate claudication pain for 12\xa0weeks; a third group performed light resistance training as a nonwalking attention-control group', 'exercise and supervised exercise programs and in an attention-control group']","['E-selectin', 'hydroxyl radical antioxidant capacity', 'supervised exercise', 'vascular endothelial growth factor A', 'Cultured endothelial cell apoptosis', 'blood glucose concentration', 'Treadmill peak walking time', 'circulating markers of endogenous antioxidant capacity, angiogenesis, endothelium-derived inflammation, and blood glucose concentration']","[{'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C0231220', 'cui_str': 'Symptomatic (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0441601', 'cui_str': 'Padding (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0439810', 'cui_str': 'Total (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C4708785', 'cui_str': 'One hundred and fourteen'}, {'cui': 'C1704436', 'cui_str': 'Peripheral Artery Disease'}, {'cui': 'C0205182', 'cui_str': 'Atypical (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C1456822', 'cui_str': 'Claudication'}, {'cui': 'C0442519', 'cui_str': 'Domestic (environment)'}, {'cui': 'C0178499', 'cui_str': 'Base'}]","[{'cui': 'C0015259', 'cui_str': 'Physical Activity'}, {'cui': 'C0442519', 'cui_str': 'Domestic (environment)'}, {'cui': 'C0178499', 'cui_str': 'Base'}, {'cui': 'C2728259', 'cui_str': 'Program'}, {'cui': 'C0205267', 'cui_str': 'Intermittent (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0080331', 'cui_str': 'Walking'}, {'cui': 'C1299392', 'cui_str': 'Mild to moderate'}, {'cui': 'C1456822', 'cui_str': 'Claudication'}, {'cui': 'C0030193', 'cui_str': 'Pain'}, {'cui': 'C0439230', 'cui_str': 'week (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0439745', 'cui_str': 'Grouped (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0884358', 'cui_str': 'Performed'}, {'cui': 'C0332264', 'cui_str': 'Light (weight) (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0872279', 'cui_str': 'Strength Training'}, {'cui': 'C0004268', 'cui_str': 'Attention'}, {'cui': 'C0009932', 'cui_str': 'Control Groups'}]","[{'cui': 'C0115305', 'cui_str': 'LECAM-2'}, {'cui': 'C0063146', 'cui_str': 'Hydroxyl'}, {'cui': 'C0003402', 'cui_str': 'Anti-Oxidants'}, {'cui': 'C0015259', 'cui_str': 'Physical Activity'}, {'cui': 'C0078058', 'cui_str': 'Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor A'}, {'cui': 'C0225336', 'cui_str': 'Endothelial Cells'}, {'cui': 'C0162638', 'cui_str': 'Programmed Cell Death, Type I'}, {'cui': 'C2585282', 'cui_str': 'Blood glucose concentration'}, {'cui': 'C0184069', 'cui_str': 'Treadmill, device (physical object)'}, {'cui': 'C0444505', 'cui_str': 'Peak (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0080331', 'cui_str': 'Walking'}, {'cui': 'C1632851', 'cui_str': 'Times'}, {'cui': 'C0175630', 'cui_str': 'Circulating (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0205227', 'cui_str': 'Endogenous (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0014257', 'cui_str': 'Endothelium'}, {'cui': 'C0021368', 'cui_str': 'Inflammation'}]",114.0,0.0401821,"For circulating biomarkers, increases were found in hydroxyl radical antioxidant capacity (P = .003) and vascular endothelial growth factor A (P = .037), and decreases were observed in E-selectin (P = .007) and blood glucose concentration (P = .012) after home-based exercise only.","[{'ForeName': 'Andrew W', 'Initials': 'AW', 'LastName': 'Gardner', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, Penn State College of Medicine, Hershey, Pa.

1670,31482853,Family Separation and the Impact of Digital Technology on the Mental Health of Refugee Families in the United States: Qualitative Study.,"BACKGROUND
Conflicts around the world have resulted in a record high number of refugees. Family separation is a critical factor that impacts refugee mental health. Thus, it is important to explore refugees' ability to maintain contact with family members across the globe and the ways in which they attempt to do so. It is increasingly common for refugees to use information and communication technologies (ICTs), which include mobile phones, the internet, and social media sites, such as Facebook, WhatsApp, Skype, and Viber, for these purposes.
OBJECTIVE
The aim of this study was to explore refugees' perceptions of the impact of communication through ICTs on their mental health, the exercise of agency by refugees within the context of ICT use, especially their communication with their families, and logistical issues that affect their access to ICTs in the United States.
METHODS
We used a constructivist grounded theory approach to analyze in-depth interviews of 290 adult refugee participants from different countries, who were enrolled in a randomized controlled trial of a community-based mental health intervention.
RESULTS
Analyses showed that communication through ICTs had differing impacts on the mental health of refugee participants. ICTs, as channels of communication between separated families, were a major source of emotional and mental well-being for a large number of refugee participants. However, for some participants, the communication process with separated family members through digital technology was mentally and emotionally difficult. The participants also discussed ways in which they hide adversities from their families through selective use of different ICTs. Several participants noted logistical and financial barriers to communicating with their families through ICTs.
CONCLUSIONS
These findings are important in elucidating aspects of refugee agency and environmental constraints that need to be further explicated in theories related to ICT use as well as in providing insight for researchers and practitioners involved in efforts related to migration and mental health.",2019,"ICTs, as channels of communication between separated families, were a major source of emotional and mental well-being for a large number of refugee participants.",['290 adult refugee participants from different countries'],"['Digital Technology', 'community-based mental health intervention']",['mental health'],"[{'cui': 'C0001675', 'cui_str': 'Adult'}, {'cui': 'C0034961', 'cui_str': 'Refugees'}, {'cui': 'C0454664', 'cui_str': 'Country (geographic location)'}]","[{'cui': 'C0442015', 'cui_str': 'Digital X-ray (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0039421', 'cui_str': 'Technology'}, {'cui': 'C0009462', 'cui_str': 'Community'}, {'cui': 'C0178499', 'cui_str': 'Base'}, {'cui': 'C0025353', 'cui_str': 'Mental Hygiene'}]","[{'cui': 'C0025353', 'cui_str': 'Mental Hygiene'}]",290.0,0.0560477,"ICTs, as channels of communication between separated families, were a major source of emotional and mental well-being for a large number of refugee participants.","[{'ForeName': 'Sayyed Fawad Ali', 'Initials': 'SFA', 'LastName': 'Shah', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Communication, Jacksonville State University, Jacksonville, AL, United States.'}, {'ForeName': 'Julia Meredith', 'Initials': 'JM', 'LastName': 'Hess', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Pediatrics, University of New Mexico School of Medicine, Albuquerque, NM, United States.'}, {'ForeName': 'Jessica R', 'Initials': 'JR', 'LastName': 'Goodkind', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Sociology, University of New Mexico, Albuquerque, NM, United States.'}]",Journal of medical Internet research,['10.2196/14171']
1671,31479947,Quality of surgery and surgical reporting for patients with primary gastrointestinal stromal tumours participating in the EORTC STBSG 62024 adjuvant imatinib study.,"BACKGROUND
EORTC (European Organisation of Research and Treatment of Cancer) 62024 is a phase III randomised trial evaluating adjuvant imatinib in patients with gastrointestinal stromal tumours (GISTs) and no evidence of residual disease after surgery in 908 patients from 11 countries participated. As surgical treatment aspects (tumour rupture and incomplete resection) contribute to the risk of recurrence, the data of primary surgery were reviewed.
METHODS
The surgical record, local pathology report and a surgical questionnaire on details of the operation had to be completed when patients entered the study. Surgeons from 5 countries, covering 8 languages, reviewed the full set of data being available from 793 patients (87.3%).
RESULTS
A known GIST was the reason for surgery in only 58% of the cases, and 12% of the patients were treated as an emergency. The R0-resection rate was 87%. The extent of resection was local excision in 17%, segmental resection in 59%, full-organ resection in 11% and multivisceral resection in 11%, with lymphadenectomy performed in 24% of the patients. Shelling out of the tumour was performed in 9.7%, and the proportion of tumours removed in parts was higher in the endoscopy/laparoscopy group. The incidence of tumour rupture (representing M1) was 9%. The consistency between preoperative and intraoperative findings was 82%. The postoperative complication rate was 7.3%.
CONCLUSION
The standardisation of surgery in this study was inferior. Given the review data, 18% of the patients should not have participated in the trial. Quality of surgery and improperly reported intraoperative details might influence the trial results. A detailed surgical questionnaire filled out by the surgeon is mandatory before entering the patient in an adjuvant trial in GIST.",2019,62024 is a phase III randomised trial evaluating adjuvant imatinib in patients with gastrointestinal stromal tumours (GISTs) and no evidence of residual disease after surgery in 908 patients from 11 countries participated.,"['Cancer', 'patients with primary gastrointestinal stromal tumours\xa0participating in the EORTC STBSG 62024 adjuvant imatinib study', 'patients with gastrointestinal stromal tumours (GISTs) and no evidence of residual disease after surgery in 908 patients from 11 countries participated']",['adjuvant imatinib'],"['postoperative complication rate', 'full-organ resection', 'R0-resection rate', 'incidence of tumour rupture', 'Quality of surgery and surgical reporting']","[{'cui': 'C1306459', 'cui_str': 'Primary malignant neoplasm'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C0439631', 'cui_str': 'Primary operation (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0238198', 'cui_str': 'Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumors'}, {'cui': 'C0935989', 'cui_str': 'imatinib'}, {'cui': 'C0557651', 'cui_str': 'Study (environment)'}, {'cui': 'C0332125', 'cui_str': 'No evidence of (contextual qualifier) (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C1609982', 'cui_str': 'Residual (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0012634', 'cui_str': 'Disease'}, {'cui': 'C0032790', 'cui_str': 'Postoperative Period'}, {'cui': 'C0454664', 'cui_str': 'Country (geographic location)'}]","[{'cui': 'C0935989', 'cui_str': 'imatinib'}]","[{'cui': 'C0032787', 'cui_str': 'Postoperative Complications'}, {'cui': 'C0728940', 'cui_str': 'Surgical removal - action'}, {'cui': 'C0220856', 'cui_str': 'incidence'}, {'cui': 'C2938957', 'cui_str': 'Tumour rupture'}, {'cui': 'C0332306', 'cui_str': 'With quality (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C1274039', 'cui_str': 'Surgery'}, {'cui': 'C0543467', 'cui_str': 'Operative Procedures'}]",908.0,0.0413268,62024 is a phase III randomised trial evaluating adjuvant imatinib in patients with gastrointestinal stromal tumours (GISTs) and no evidence of residual disease after surgery in 908 patients from 11 countries participated.,"[{'ForeName': 'Peter', 'Initials': 'P', 'LastName': 'Hohenberger', 'Affiliation': 'Division of Surgical Oncology & Thoracic Surgery, Mannheim University Medical Center, University of Heidelberg, Germany.

1672,31336289,Ten-year results of the Multicentric Italian Lung Detection trial demonstrate the safety and efficacy of biennial lung cancer screening.,"BACKGROUND
The Multicentric Italian Lung Detection (MILD) trial demonstrated that prolonged low-dose computed tomography (LDCT) screening could achieve a 39% reduction in lung cancer (LC) mortality. We have here evaluated the long-term results of annual vs. biennial LDCT and the impact of screening intensity on overall and LC-specific mortality at 10 years.
PATIENTS AND METHODS
Between 2005 and 2018, the MILD trial prospectively randomised the 2376 screening arm participants to annual (n = 1190) or biennial (n = 1186) LDCT, for a median screening period of 6.2 years and 23,083 person-years of follow-up. The primary outcomes were 10-year overall and LC-specific mortality, and the secondary end-points were the frequency of advanced-stage and interval LCs.
RESULTS
The biennial LDCT arm showed a similar overall mortality (hazard ratio [HR] 0.80, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.57-1.12) and LC-specific mortality at 10 years (HR 1.10, 95% CI 0.59-2.05), as compared with the annual LDCT arm. Biennial screening saved 44% of follow-up LDCTs in subjects with negative baseline LDCT, and 38% of LDCTs in all participants, with no increase in the occurrence of stage II-IV or interval LCs.
CONCLUSIONS

1674,31445198,SAPPHIRE: a randomised phase II study of planned discontinuation or continuous treatment of oxaliplatin after six cycles of modified FOLFOX6 plus panitumumab in patients with colorectal cancer.,"BACKGROUND
Fluorouracil (5-FU), leucovorin (LV) and oxaliplatin (FOLFOX) plus panitumumab therapy is a commonly used first-line chemotherapy for metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). However, the long-term administration of oxaliplatin is associated with peripheral neuropathy (PN). We investigated whether the planned discontinuation of oxaliplatin after FOLFOX plus panitumumab therapy can maintain efficacy and reduce PN incidence.
PATIENTS AND METHODS
Chemotherapy-naive patients with RAS wild-type mCRC, aged ≥20 years, were enrolled and received six cycles of modified FOLFOX6 (mFOLFOX6) plus panitumumab as induction therapy. Patients who completed induction therapy without progression were randomised to mFOLFOX6 plus panitumumab (group A) or to 5-FU/LV plus panitumumab (group B). The primary end-point was the progression-free survival (PFS) rate at 9 months after randomisation. The secondary end-points were PFS, overall survival (OS), time to treatment failure (TTF), response rate (RR) and safety.
RESULTS
In total, 164 patients were enrolled; of whom, 113 patients were then randomised (group A, n = 56; group B, n = 57). The median follow-up after randomisation was 19.6 months. The PFS rates at 9 months and median PFS were 46.4% (80% confidence interval [CI], 38.1-54.9) and 9.1 months (95% CI, 8.6-11.1) in group A, compared with 47.4% (80% CI, 39.1-55.8) and 9.3 months (95% CI, 6.0-13.0) in group B, respectively. RR, OS and TTF were also similar in both groups. Grade ≥2 PN incidence was lower in group B (9.3%) than in group A (35.7%).
CONCLUSION
Planned discontinuation of oxaliplatin after six cycles of mFOLFOX6 plus panitumumab is a potential treatment option in patients with mCRC, achieving similar efficacy while reducing oxaliplatin-associated PN compared with mFOLFOX6 plus panitumumab.

1675,31473130,Comparison of oral vs. combined topical/intravenous/oral tranexamic acid in the prevention of blood loss in total knee arthroplasty: A randomised clinical trial.,"BACKGROUND
Tranexamic acid (TXA) has long been used to reduce blood loss associated with total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Debate remains over the best administration route with limited data comparing regimes including, to date, no studies investigating the equivalence of oral TXA and a combined topical/intravenous (IV) regime. Therefore, the aim of this study was to compare the efficacy and safety of oral TXA to combined topical/IV/oral TXA.
WORKING HYPOTHESIS
We postulated that oral TXA would offer the same efficacy and safety as combined topical/IV/oral regime. We asked: (1) Would blood loss and haemoglobin change be affected? (2) Would complication rates increase?
PATIENTS AND METHODS
Patients were randomised into either the study group (oral TXA regimen) or the control group (combined topical/IV/oral TXA). Both groups were administered three doses of TXA and received the same post-operative venous thromboembolism prophylaxis. Efficacy outcomes including blood loss and haemoglobin (Hb) change were investigated, together with safety outcomes of incidence of deep vein thrombosis and adverse events.
RESULTS
The study (n=25) and control (n=28) group were comparable at baseline (eg pre-op haemoglobin). No significant difference was found between the study and control group in terms of Hb change (32.9±8.9 vs. 31.8±10.4, p=0.687) or blood loss (measured 640.0±291.1 vs. 538.3±270.2, p=0.173 and total 1211.5±336.0 vs. 1092.9±341.4, p=0.214). No cases of DVT were reported for either group and no statistical differences were found in the incidence of adverse events (nausea, hypotension, constipation) between groups.
DISCUSSION
This study has shown for the first time that an oral TXA regimen is non-inferior to a topical/IV/oral regimen in TKA in efficacy and safety. Utilising oral TXA in place of a combined topical/IV/oral regime can significantly reduce costs without compromising patient outcomes.

The study group comprised 45 patients with unilateral temporomandibular disorders who fell into Axis I group II (with limited mouth opening) of the Research Diagnostic Criteria for Temporomandibular Disorders. Magnetic resonance imaging was used for definitive diagnosis. The patients were divided randomly into three groups according to the treatment method: splint therapy, splint therapy with ultrasound-guided arthrocentesis, and splint therapy with low-level laser therapy. Patients were followed up after treatment for 6 months. The groups were compared in terms of pain and functional jaw movements (unassisted mouth opening without pain, maximum unassisted mouth opening, and contralateral movements). At the end of treatment, functional jaw movements were significantly increased while pain values were significantly decreased in all groups (P<0.05). Group 2 had a quicker improvement in terms of mouth opening scores at the end of the first month, and unassisted mouth opening without pain was found to be more than 35 millimetres in all groups at the end of 6 months.

1677,31279647,Angioplasty with versus without routine stent placement for Budd-Chiari syndrome: a randomised controlled trial.,"BACKGROUND
Angioplasty recanalisation is recommended as the first-line interventional procedure for Budd-Chiari syndrome, but subsequent restenosis is common. We aimed to test whether use of routine, non-selective stenting in angioplasty could improve patency and treatment efficacy with adequate safety in Budd-Chiari syndrome.
METHODS
We did a randomised controlled trial, for which patients aged 18-75 years with Budd-Chiari syndrome with membranous obstruction or short-length stenosis (≤4 cm), and a Child-Pugh score of less than 13 were considered eligible. Patients were excluded if they had obstruction not amenable to angioplasty, were recommended to be treated with transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt or liver transplantation, or had contraindications for angioplasty. Eligible patients were randomly assigned (1:1) to an angioplasty-only group or an angioplasty plus routine stenting group, with use of a web-based allocation system (Pocock and Simon's minimisation method, stratified by obstruction features and Child-Pugh score). Recanalisation procedures were done within 24 h of randomisation. The statistician and investigators responsible for data collection data and endpoint assessment were masked to group allocation. The primary outcome was the proportion of patients free of restenosis, analysed in the intention-to-treat population. The study is registered on ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT02201485) and is completed.

Between July 28, 2014, and Sept 29, 2017, 88 (59%) of 150 screened patients were enrolled and assigned either the angioplasty-only group (n=45) or the angioplasty plus routine stenting group (n=43). During a median follow-up period of 27 months (IQR 19-41), the angioplasty plus routine stenting group had significantly higher proportion of patients free of restenosis (42 [98%] of 43 patients) than did the angioplasty-only group (27 [60%] of 45 patients; p<0·0001). In the survival analysis, 3-year restenosis-free survival was 96·0% (95% CI 88·6-100·0) in the routine stenting group versus 60·4% (46·4-78·7) in the angioplasty-only group (log-rank p<0·0001). The hazard ratio for restenosis was 0·04 (95% CI 0·01-0·31) in favour of routine stenting, with an absolute risk reduction of 35·6% (95% CI 24·2-55·0). Two (5%) patients in the angioplasty plus routine stenting group and one (2%) patient in the angioplasty-only group died during follow-up. One (2%) patient from the angioplasty plus routine stenting group had puncture site haematoma, which was not related to stenting. No stent fracture or migration occurred. Anticoagulation-related adverse events occurred in five (11%) patients from angioplasty alone group and five (12%) patients from angioplasty plus routine stenting group.
INTERPRETATION
Routine stenting with angioplasty is superior to angioplasty alone for preventing restenosis in patients with Budd-Chiari syndrome with short-length stenosis and is safe to use as part of first-line invasive treatment. Further validation is needed in similar settings and other regions in which different characteristics of Budd-Chiari syndrome are more prevalent.

1678,31366355,Barriers and facilitators to implementing cancer prevention clinical decision support in primary care: a qualitative study.,"BACKGROUND
In the United States, primary care providers (PCPs) routinely balance acute, chronic, and preventive patient care delivery, including cancer prevention and screening, in time-limited visits. Clinical decision support (CDS) may help PCPs prioritize cancer prevention and screening with other patient needs. In a three-arm, pragmatic, clinic-randomized control trial, we are studying cancer prevention CDS in a large, upper Midwestern healthcare system. The web-based, electronic health record (EHR)-linked CDS integrates evidence-based primary and secondary cancer prevention and screening recommendations into an existing cardiovascular risk management CDS system. Our objective with this study was to identify adoption barriers and facilitators before implementation in primary care.
METHODS
We conducted semi-structured interviews guided by the Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research (CFIR) with 28 key informants employed by the healthcare organization in either leadership roles or the direct provision of clinical care. Transcribed interviews were analyzed using qualitative content analysis.
RESULTS
EHR, CDS workflow, CDS users (providers and patients), training, and organizational barriers and facilitators were identified related to Intervention Characteristics, Outer Setting, Inner Setting, and Characteristics of Individuals CFIR domains.
CONCLUSION
Identifying and addressing key informant-identified barriers and facilitators before implementing cancer prevention CDS in primary care may support a successful implementation and sustained use. The CFIR is a useful framework for understanding pre-implementation barriers and facilitators. Based on our findings, the research team developed and instituted specialized training, pilot testing, implementation plans, and post-implementation efforts to maximize identified facilitators and address barriers.

1679,31233662,Pain vs. comfort diary: A fully remote app-based experiment.,"BACKGROUND
Focusing on pain while completing a pain diary might have detrimental effects on pain intensity. Inverted comfort ratings might be used instead.
METHODS
A fully remote app-based registered experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of a pain versus comfort diary on 7-day recall ratings of pain intensity during a 3-week period. The diary included questions about past, current and expected pain or comfort. Randomization took place by the study app, thereby controlling for effects of experimenter bias.
RESULTS
Contrary to the study hypothesis, multilevel regression showed a more pronounced decrease in 7-day recall ratings of pain in the group who rated pain intensity daily (n = 184) than in the group who rated comfort daily (n = 205, B = -0.17, p = 0.034). There were no between-group differences in secondary outcomes (comfort, depressive symptoms, pain interference and happiness). Exploratory analyses revealed more pronounced decreases in pain intensity in participants who experienced less frequent pain in the previous 6 months. Correlations between pain and comfort ratings decreased from -0.39 at baseline to -0.06 after 3 weeks.
CONCLUSIONS
The findings do not support the potential beneficial effects of replacing diary ratings of pain intensity with diary ratings of comfort. The unexpected decreases among those who completed daily pain diaries might have been due to the inclusion of questions about expected pain. Decreasing correlations between pain and comfort ratings suggest that comfort ratings are not merely inverted pain ratings; rather, they appear to assess a domain distinct from pain intensity.
SIGNIFICANCE
The positive effects of pain diaries on pain trajectories appear to constitute a reliable effect and not a methodological artefact. Pain diaries should be investigated systematically to identify ways to optimize their effects on clinical outcomes. Comfort diaries, however, do not appear to be an efficacious substitute for pain diaries; if the current findings replicate, they indicate that primary care practitioners should continue to use pain diaries in clinical care.",2019,"There were no between-group differences in secondary outcomes (comfort, depressive symptoms, pain interference, and happiness).",['A fully remote app-based registered experiment'],['pain vs. comfort diary'],"['7-day recall ratings of pain', 'secondary outcomes (comfort, depressive symptoms, pain interference, and happiness', 'diary included questions about past, current and expected pain or comfort', 'frequent pain', 'pain and comfort ratings', '7-day recall ratings of pain intensity', 'pain intensity']","[{'cui': 'C0205157', 'cui_str': 'Remote (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0178499', 'cui_str': 'Base'}, {'cui': 'C0600375', 'cui_str': 'Registers'}]","[{'cui': 'C0030193', 'cui_str': 'Pain'}, {'cui': 'C0376660', 'cui_str': 'Diary'}]","[{'cui': 'C0439228', 'cui_str': 'day (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0030193', 'cui_str': 'Pain'}, {'cui': 'C1522484', 'cui_str': 'metastatic'}, {'cui': 'C0086132', 'cui_str': 'Depressive Symptoms'}, {'cui': 'C0018592', 'cui_str': 'Happinesses'}, {'cui': 'C0376660', 'cui_str': 'Diary'}, {'cui': 'C0332257', 'cui_str': 'Including (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C1444637', 'cui_str': 'In the past'}, {'cui': 'C0521116', 'cui_str': 'Current (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0332183', 'cui_str': 'Frequent (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C1320357', 'cui_str': 'Pain intensity'}]",,0.0768825,"There were no between-group differences in secondary outcomes (comfort, depressive symptoms, pain interference, and happiness).","[{'ForeName': 'Piotr', 'Initials': 'P', 'LastName': 'Gruszka', 'Affiliation': 'Faculty of Psychology, Ruhr-Universität Bochum, Bochum, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Christina', 'Initials': 'C', 'LastName': 'Stammen', 'Affiliation': 'Faculty of Psychology, Ruhr-Universität Bochum, Bochum, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Nicolai', 'Initials': 'N', 'LastName': 'Bissantz', 'Affiliation': 'Faculty of Mathematics, Ruhr-Universität Bochum, Bochum, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Mark P', 'Initials': 'MP', 'LastName': 'Jensen', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Rehabilitation Medicine, University of Washington, Seattle, Washington.'}]","European journal of pain (London, England)",['10.1002/ejp.1446']
1680,24671721,Diffusion tensor imaging in extremely low birth weight infants managed with hypercapnic vs. normocapnic ventilation.,"BACKGROUND
Permissive hypercapnia is a ventilatory strategy used to prevent lung injury in ventilated extremely low birth weight (ELBW, birth weight ≤1,000 g) infants. However, there is retrospective evidence showing that high CO2 is associated with brain injury.
OBJECTIVE
The objective of this study was to compare brain white matter development at term-equivalent age in ELBW infants randomized to hypercapnic vs. normocapnic ventilation during the first week of life and in healthy non-ventilated term newborns.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
Twenty-two ELBW infants from a randomized controlled trial were included in this study; 11 received hypercapnic (transcutaneous PCO2 [tcPCO2] 50-60 mmHg) ventilation and 11 normocapnic (tcPCO2 35-45 mmHg) ventilation during the first week of life while still intubated. In addition, ten term healthy newborns served as controls. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) was performed at term-equivalent age for the ELBW infants and at approximately 2 weeks of age for the control infants. White matter injury on conventional MRI was graded in the ELBW and control infants using a scoring system adopted from literature. Tract-based spatial statistics (TBSS) was used to evaluate for differences in DTI measured fractional anisotropy (FA, spatially normalized to a customized template) among the ELBW and term control infants.
RESULTS
Conventional MRI white matter scores were not different (7.3 ± 1.7 vs. 6.9 ± 1.4, P = 0.65) between the hypercapnic and normocapnic ELBW infants. TBSS analysis did not show significant differences (P < 0.05, corrected) between the two ELBW infant groups, although before multiple comparisons correction, hypercapnic infants had many regions with lower FA and no regions with higher FA (P < 0.05, uncorrected) compared to normocapnic infants. When compared to the control infants, normocapnic ELBW infants had a few small regions with significantly lower FA, while hypercapnic ELBW infants had more widespread regions with significantly lower FA (P < 0.05, fully corrected for multiple comparisons).
CONCLUSIONS

1681,25331625,"A new reversible and potent P2Y12 receptor antagonist (ACT-246475): tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics in a first-in-man trial.","BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES
ACT-246475 is a new reversible, selective, and potent antagonist of the platelet P2Y12 receptor. This study was a first-in-man trial investigating the tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of single oral doses of ACT-246475 and its di-ester prodrug (ACT-281959) in healthy males.
METHODS
The study had a double-blind, randomized, ascending single-dose design with an oral formulation F1 (i.e., ACT-281959 or placebo) (Part I) and an open-label, randomized, 3-period, crossover design comparing exploratory formulations of ACT-281959 (F2) 70 mg and ACT-246475 (dF) 50 mg to F1 70 mg (Part II). In Part I, doses up to 1,000 mg were tested in 40 healthy subjects. Nine healthy subjects were enrolled in Part II. Standard safety parameters, inhibition of platelet aggregation, and ACT-246475 plasma concentrations were measured. Non-compartmental pharmacokinetic analysis was performed.
RESULTS
All doses and formulations were well tolerated. The most frequent adverse event was headache, whereas no events of bleeding or dyspnea were reported. In Part I, ACT-246475 area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC) increased dose-proportionally whereas maximum plasma concentration (C max) was less than dose-proportional. The highest C max [geometric mean (95 % CI)] at 1,000 mg was 13.8 (9.7, 19.5) pmol/mL at 4.5 h post-dose, terminal half-life (t ½) was ~10 h. ACT-246475 C max and AUC0-∞ ratios of geometric means (90 % CI) using F1 as reference, for F2 were 8.5 (5.42, 13.35) and 3.4 (2.40, 4.82), respectively, and for dF 2.2 (1.42, 3.49) and 1.5 (1.07, 2.16), respectively. Mean peak platelet inhibition was 31.0 % after F1 (1,000 mg) and 47.8 % after F2.
CONCLUSIONS
Oral doses of ACT-281959 and ACT-246475 were well tolerated. Platelet inhibition correlated with ACT-246475 exposure. Exploratory formulations enhanced the bioavailability and antiplatelet effect of ACT-246475.",2014,"Standard safety parameters, inhibition of platelet aggregation, and ACT-246475 plasma concentrations were measured.

1682,25407559,A Phase III study of radiation therapy (RT) and O⁶-benzylguanine + BCNU versus RT and BCNU alone and methylation status in newly diagnosed glioblastoma and gliosarcoma: Southwest Oncology Group (SWOG) study S0001.,"AIMS
To determine the efficacy of methylguanine methyltransferase (MGMT) depletion + BCNU [1,3-bis(2-chloroethyl)-1- nitrosourea: carmustine] therapy and the impact of methylation status in adults with glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) and gliosarcoma.
METHODS
Methylation analysis was performed on GBM patients with adequate tissue samples. Patients with newly diagnosed GBM or gliosarcoma were eligible for this Phase III open-label clinical trial. At registration, patients were randomized to Arm 1, which consisted of therapy with O(6)-benzylguanine (O(6)-BG) + BCNU 40 mg/m(2) (reduced dose) + radiation therapy (RT) (O6BG + BCNU arm), or Arm 2, which consisted of therapy with BCNU 200 mg/m(2) + RT (BCNU arm).
RESULTS
A total of 183 patients with newly diagnosed GBM or gliosarcoma from 42 U.S. institutions were enrolled in this study. Of these, 90 eligible patients received O(6)-BG + BCNU + RT and 89 received BCNU + RT. The trial was halted at the first interim analysis in accordance with the guidelines for stopping the study due to futility (<40 % improvement among patients on the O6BG + BCNU arm). Following adjustment for stratification factors, there was no significant difference in overall survival (OS) or progression-free survival (PFS) between the two groups (one sided p = 0.94 and p = 0.88, respectively). Median OS was 11 [95 % confidence interval (CI) 8-13] months for patients in the O6BG + BCNU arm and 10 (95 % CI 8-12) months for those in the BCNU arm. PFS was 4 months for patients in each arm. Adverse events were reported in both arms, with significantly more grade 4 and 5 events in the experimental arm.

1684,25623785,Endotracheal Intubation in Patients Treated for Prehospital Status Epilepticus.,"INTRODUCTION
Limited data describe the frequency, timing, or indications for endotracheal intubation (ETI) in patients with status epilepticus. A better understanding of the characteristics of patients with status epilepticus requiring airway interventions could inform clinical care. We sought to characterize ETI use in patients with prehospital status epilepticus.
METHODS
This study was a secondary analysis of the Rapid Anticonvulsant Medication Prior to Arrival Trial, a multi-center, randomized trial comparing intravenous lorazepam to intramuscular midazolam for prehospital status epilepticus treatment. Subjects received ETI in the prehospital, Emergency Department (ED), or inpatient setting at the discretion of caregivers.
RESULTS
Of 1023 enrollments, 218 (21 %) received ETI. 204 (93.6 %) of the ETIs were performed in the hospital and 14 (6.4 %) in the prehospital setting. Intubated patients were older (52 vs 41 years, p < 0.001), and men underwent ETI more than women (26 vs 21 %, p = 0.047). Patients with ongoing seizures on ED arrival had a higher rate of ETI (32 vs 16 %, p < 0.001), as did those who received rescue anti-seizure medication (29 vs 20 %, p = 0.004). Mortality was higher for intubated patients (7 vs 0.4 %, p < 0.001). Most ETI (n = 133, 62 %) occurred early (prior to or within 30 min after ED arrival), and late ETI was associated with higher mortality (14 vs 3 %, p = 0.002) than early ETI.
CONCLUSIONS
ETI is common in patients with status epilepticus, particularly among the elderly or those with refractory seizures. Any ETI and late ETI are both associated with higher mortality.",2015,"Mortality was higher for intubated patients (7 vs 0.4 %, p < 0.001).","['patients with prehospital status epilepticus', 'Patients Treated for Prehospital Status Epilepticus', 'patients with status epilepticus', 'prehospital status epilepticus treatment', 'patients with status epilepticus, particularly among the elderly or those with refractory seizures', 'patients with status epilepticus requiring airway interventions']","['midazolam', 'lorazepam', 'Endotracheal Intubation', 'endotracheal intubation (ETI']","['Mortality', 'rate of ETI', 'higher mortality']","[{'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C0038220', 'cui_str': 'Status Epilepticus, Generalized'}, {'cui': 'C0332154', 'cui_str': 'Received therapy or drug for (contextual qualifier) (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0087111', 'cui_str': 'Therapy'}, {'cui': 'C0001792', 'cui_str': 'Elderly'}, {'cui': 'C0205269', 'cui_str': 'Intractable (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0036572', 'cui_str': 'Seizures'}, {'cui': 'C0458827', 'cui_str': 'Airway structure (body structure)'}]","[{'cui': 'C0026056', 'cui_str': 'Midazolam'}, {'cui': 'C0024002', 'cui_str': 'Lorazepam'}, {'cui': 'C0021932', 'cui_str': 'Intubation, Endotracheal'}]","[{'cui': 'C0026566', 'cui_str': 'mortality'}, {'cui': 'C0205250', 'cui_str': 'High (qualifier value)'}]",,0.0877156,"Mortality was higher for intubated patients (7 vs 0.4 %, p < 0.001).","[{'ForeName': 'Taher T', 'Initials': 'TT', 'LastName': 'Vohra', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Emergency Medicine, Henry Ford Hospital, CFP 259, 2799\xa0W Grand Blvd, Detroit, MI, 48202, USA, tvohra1@hfhs.org.'}, {'ForeName': 'Joseph B', 'Initials': 'JB', 'LastName': 'Miller', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Katherine S', 'Initials': 'KS', 'LastName': 'Nicholas', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Panayiotis N', 'Initials': 'PN', 'LastName': 'Varelas', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Donna M', 'Initials': 'DM', 'LastName': 'Harsh', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Valerie', 'Initials': 'V', 'LastName': 'Durkalski', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Robert', 'Initials': 'R', 'LastName': 'Silbergleit', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Henry E', 'Initials': 'HE', 'LastName': 'Wang', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': '', 'Initials': '', 'LastName': '', 'Affiliation': ''}]",Neurocritical care,['10.1007/s12028-014-0106-5']
1685,32000724,Treatment intensification with hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy in patients with liver-only colorectal metastases still unresectable after systemic induction chemotherapy - a randomized phase II study -- SULTAN UCGI 30/PRODIGE 53 (NCT03164655)- study protocol.,"BACKGROUND
Approximately 40% of colorectal cancer patients will develop colorectal liver metastases (CRLM). The most effective approach to increase long-term survival is CRLM complete resection. Unfortunately, only 10-15% of CRLM are initially considered resectable. The objective response rates (ORR) after current first-line systemic chemotherapy (sys-CT) regimens range from 40 to 80% and complete resection rates (CRR) range from 25 to 50% in patients with initially unresectable CRLM. When CRLM patients are not amenable to complete resection after induction of sys-CT, ORRs obtained with second-line sys-CT are much lower (between 10 and 30%) and consequently CRRs are also low (< 10%). Hepatic arterial infusion (HAI) oxaliplatin may represent a salvage therapy in patients with CRLM unresectable after one or more sys-CT regimens with ORRs and CRRs up to 60 and 30%, respectively. This study is designed to evaluate the efficacy of an intensification strategy based on HAI oxaliplatin combined with sys-CT as a salvage treatment in patients with CRLM unresectable after at least 2 months of first-line induction sys-CT.
OBJECTIVES AND ENDPOINTS OF THE PHASE II STUDY
Our main objective is to investigate the efficacy, in term of CRR (R0-R1), of treatment intensification in patients with liver-only CRLM not amenable to curative-intent resection (and/or ablation) after at least 2 months of induction sys-CT. Patients will receive either HAI oxaliplatin plus systemic FOLFIRI plus targeted therapy (i.e. anti-EGFR antibody or bevacizumab) or conventional sys-CT plus targeted therapy (i.e. anti-EGFR or antiangiogenic antibody). Secondary objectives are to compare: progression-free survival, overall survival, objective response rate, depth of response, feasibility of delivering HAI oxaliplatin including HAI catheter-related complications, and toxicity (NCI-CTCAE v4.0).
METHODS
This study is a multicenter, randomized, comparative phase II trial (power, 80%; two-sided alpha-risk, 5%). Patients will be randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to receive HAI oxaliplatin combined with systemic FOLFIRI plus targeted therapy (experimental arm) or the best sys-CT plus targeted therapy on the basis of their first-line prior sys-CT history and current guidelines (control arm). One hundred forty patients are required to account for non-evaluable patients.

1686,31800542,Randomized Clinical Trial: Crofelemer Treatment in Women With Diarrhea-Predominant Irritable Bowel Syndrome.,"INTRODUCTION
Crofelemer, the active compound purified from latex of Croton lechleri, has been shown to improve HIV and traveler's diarrhea and improve pain in women with irritable bowel syndrome-diarrhea (IBS-D). This trial evaluated the effect of crofelemer on abdominal pain in women with IBS-D.
METHODS
Women with IBS-D were randomized to crofelemer (125 mg) or placebo twice daily for 12 weeks. The primary efficacy endpoint was overall change in percentage of abdominal pain/discomfort-free days. Post hoc analysis for Food and Drug Administration (FDA) monthly responders was performed for stool consistency, abdominal pain, and combined stool consistency and abdominal pain.
RESULTS
A total of 240 women were enrolled. There was no significant difference in overall percentage of pain/discomfort-free day between the groups. In post hoc analysis, FDA abdominal pain monthly responders were significantly more likely during months 1 through 2 (58.3% vs 45.0%, P = 0.030) as well as during the entire 3 months (54.2% vs 42.5%, P = 0.037) in the crofelemer group when compared with placebo. However, there was no significant difference in the percentage of FDA stool consistency monthly responders or combined stool consistency and pain monthly responders between the groups. Crofelemer had a safety profile similar to placebo.
DISCUSSION
Crofelemer did not significantly improve abdominal pain over placebo by the primary endpoint. However, it did based on the FDA abdominal pain monthly responder endpoint. This suggests that crofelemer may have a role in the treatment of abdominal pain associated with IBS-D. Further studies are warranted to evaluate the potential of crofelemer as a visceral analgesic.",2019,There was no significant difference in overall percentage of pain/discomfort-free day between the groups.,"['women with IBS-D', 'Women With Diarrhea-Predominant Irritable Bowel Syndrome', 'women with irritable bowel syndrome-diarrhea (IBS-D', 'A total of 240 women were enrolled', 'Women with IBS-D']",['placebo'],"['stool consistency, abdominal pain, and combined stool consistency and abdominal pain', 'percentage of FDA stool consistency monthly responders or combined stool consistency and pain monthly responders', 'percentage of abdominal pain/discomfort-free days', 'overall percentage of pain/discomfort', 'FDA abdominal pain monthly responders', 'abdominal pain']","[{'cui': 'C0043210', 'cui_str': 'Girls'}, {'cui': 'C1262211', 'cui_str': 'Diarrhoea predominant irritable bowel syndrome'}, {'cui': 'C0022104', 'cui_str': 'Irritable Bowel Syndrome'}, {'cui': 'C0011991', 'cui_str': 'Diarrhea'}, {'cui': 'C0439810', 'cui_str': 'Total (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C4319600', 'cui_str': '240 (qualifier value)'}]","[{'cui': 'C1696465', 'cui_str': 'placebo'}]","[{'cui': 'C0015733', 'cui_str': 'Feces'}, {'cui': 'C0332529', 'cui_str': 'Consistency finding'}, {'cui': 'C0000737', 'cui_str': 'Abdominal Pain'}, {'cui': 'C0336789', 'cui_str': 'Combine'}, {'cui': 'C0332177', 'cui_str': 'Monthly (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0030193', 'cui_str': 'Pain'}, {'cui': 'C2364135', 'cui_str': 'Discomfort (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C0439228', 'cui_str': 'day (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0282416', 'cui_str': 'Overall'}]",240.0,0.256371,There was no significant difference in overall percentage of pain/discomfort-free day between the groups.,"[{'ForeName': 'Judy', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Nee', 'Affiliation': 'Division of Gastroenterology, Department of Medicine, Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, Boston, Massachusetts, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Katherine', 'Initials': 'K', 'LastName': 'Salley', 'Affiliation': 'Division of Gastroenterology, Department of Medicine, Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, Boston, Massachusetts, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Andrew G', 'Initials': 'AG', 'LastName': 'Ludwig', 'Affiliation': 'Division of Gastroenterology, Department of Medicine, Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, Boston, Massachusetts, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Thomas', 'Initials': 'T', 'LastName': 'Sommers', 'Affiliation': 'Division of Gastroenterology, Department of Medicine, Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, Boston, Massachusetts, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Sarah', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Ballou', 'Affiliation': 'Division of Gastroenterology, Department of Medicine, Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, Boston, Massachusetts, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Eve', 'Initials': 'E', 'LastName': 'Takazawa', 'Affiliation': 'Division of Gastroenterology, Department of Medicine, Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, Boston, Massachusetts, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Sarah', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Duehren', 'Affiliation': 'Division of Gastroenterology, Department of Medicine, Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, Boston, Massachusetts, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Prashant', 'Initials': 'P', 'LastName': 'Singh', 'Affiliation': 'Division of Gastroenterology, Department of Medicine, Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, Boston, Massachusetts, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Johanna', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Iturrino', 'Affiliation': 'Division of Gastroenterology, Department of Medicine, Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, Boston, Massachusetts, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Jesse', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Katon', 'Affiliation': 'Division of Gastroenterology, Department of Medicine, Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, Boston, Massachusetts, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Ha-Neul', 'Initials': 'HN', 'LastName': 'Lee', 'Affiliation': 'Division of Gastroenterology, Department of Medicine, Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, Boston, Massachusetts, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Vikram', 'Initials': 'V', 'LastName': 'Rangan', 'Affiliation': 'Division of Gastroenterology, Department of Medicine, Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, Boston, Massachusetts, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Anthony J', 'Initials': 'AJ', 'LastName': 'Lembo', 'Affiliation': 'Division of Gastroenterology, Department of Medicine, Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, Boston, Massachusetts, USA.'}]",Clinical and translational gastroenterology,['10.14309/ctg.0000000000000110']
1687,24986113,"When using patient-reported outcomes in clinical practice, the measure matters: a randomized controlled trial.","BACKGROUND
Patient-reported outcome (PRO) measures are increasingly being used in clinical practice to inform individual patient management, but evidence is needed on which PROs are best suited for clinical use.
METHODS
This controlled trial randomly assigned patients with breast and prostate cancer undergoing treatment to complete one of three PRO measures: European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire-Core 30 (QLQ-C30), Supportive Care Needs Survey-Short Form (SCNS-SF34), or six domains from the Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS). Patients completed the PRO measures before clinic visits, and the results were provided to both the patient and clinician. At treatment completion, patients and clinicians completed brief feedback forms on the intervention's usefulness and value. Exit interviews were conducted with patients (at end of treatment) and clinicians (at end of study). The primary outcome was the proportion of patients in each arm who either strongly agreed or agreed to all feedback form items.
RESULTS
Of 294 eligible patients invited to participate, 224 (76%) enrolled (median age 66 years, 78% white, 72% prostate). Of the 181 patients (81%) who completed at least one feedback form item, participants in the QLQ-C30 study arm were most likely to strongly agree/agree to all items (74%) followed by PROMIS (61%) and SCNS-SF34 (52%; P = .03). Of the 116 participants (52%) who completed all feedback form items, the results were similar: 82% for the QLQ-C30, 62% for PROMIS, and 56% for SCNS-SF34 (P = .05). Clinicians did not prefer one questionnaire over the others.

1688,22945782,Nephroprotective role of salacia chinensis in diabetic CKD patients: a pilot study.,"BACKGROUND
Present study aimed to study effect of Salacia Chinensis, a herbal drug, on stabilization of renal functions, and markers of endothelial dysfunction in diabetic chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
30 stable diabetic CKD patients were randomized into 2 groups; group A and B of 15 patients each. Group A was given trial drug Salacia chinensis 1000 mg twice-daily while group B received placebo. Measures of renal function: Serum creatinine and creatinine clearance; markers of endothelial dysfunction: Interleukin-6 and serum Homocysteine, and lipid profile were measured at baseline and during follow-up period of 6 months.
RESULTS
There was stabilization of renal function as measured by serum creatinine and creatinine clearance in patients who received Salacia Chinensis compared to placebo (P value < 0.05), suggesting that Salacia chinensis may retard the progression of chronic kidney disease. Similarly, there was significant decline in both serum homocysteine and IL-6 levels. [P value < 0.05 for both].
CONCLUSION
This pilot study showed a promising role for Salacia chinensis as a renoprotective drug, but further prospective studies involving large number of patients are needed to confirm this and also to delineate possible mechanisms.",2010,"There was stabilization of renal function as measured by serum creatinine and creatinine clearance in patients who received Salacia Chinensis compared to placebo (P value < 0.05), suggesting that Salacia chinensis may retard the progression of chronic kidney disease.","['30 stable diabetic CKD patients', 'diabetic CKD patients', 'diabetic chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients']",['placebo'],"['stabilization of renal function', 'serum creatinine and creatinine clearance', 'renal function: Serum creatinine and creatinine clearance; markers of endothelial dysfunction: Interleukin-6 and serum Homocysteine, and lipid profile', 'serum homocysteine and IL-6 levels']","[{'cui': 'C0205360', 'cui_str': 'Stable (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0241863', 'cui_str': 'Diabetic'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C1561643', 'cui_str': 'Chronic Kidney Diseases'}]","[{'cui': 'C1696465', 'cui_str': 'placebo'}]","[{'cui': 'C1293130', 'cui_str': 'Stabilization'}, {'cui': 'C0232804', 'cui_str': 'Renal function (observable entity)'}, {'cui': 'C0201976', 'cui_str': 'Creatinine measurement, serum (procedure)'}, {'cui': 'C0373595', 'cui_str': 'Measurement of renal clearance of creatinine (procedure)'}, {'cui': 'C0856169', 'cui_str': 'Endothelial dysfunction'}, {'cui': 'C0021760', 'cui_str': 'Interleukin-6'}, {'cui': 'C0229671', 'cui_str': 'Serum'}, {'cui': 'C0019878', 'cui_str': '2-amino-4-mercaptobutyric acid'}, {'cui': 'C0023779', 'cui_str': 'Lipids'}, {'cui': 'C0456079', 'cui_str': 'Level (attribute)'}]",30.0,0.0324738,"There was stabilization of renal function as measured by serum creatinine and creatinine clearance in patients who received Salacia Chinensis compared to placebo (P value < 0.05), suggesting that Salacia chinensis may retard the progression of chronic kidney disease.","[{'ForeName': 'Rana G', 'Initials': 'RG', 'LastName': 'Singh', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Nephrology, Institute of Medical Sciences, Banaras Hindu University, Varanasi, Uttar Pradesh, India.'}, {'ForeName': 'Surendra S', 'Initials': 'SS', 'LastName': 'Rathore', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Rajesh', 'Initials': 'R', 'LastName': 'Kumar', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': '', 'Initials': '', 'LastName': '', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Aruna', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Agarwal', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Govind P', 'Initials': 'GP', 'LastName': 'Dubey', 'Affiliation': ''}]",Indian journal of medical sciences,['10.4103/0019-5359.100341']
1689,23937346,RCT of web-based personalized normative feedback for college drinking prevention: are typical student norms good enough?,"OBJECTIVES
Personalized normative feedback (PNF) interventions are generally effective at correcting normative misperceptions and reducing risky alcohol consumption among college students. However, research has yet to establish what level of reference group specificity is most efficacious in delivering PNF. This study compared the efficacy of a web-based PNF intervention using 8 increasingly specific reference groups against a Web-BASICS intervention and a repeated-assessment control in reducing risky drinking and associated consequences.
METHOD
Participants were 1,663 heavy-drinking Caucasian and Asian undergraduates at 2 universities. The referent for web-based PNF was either the typical same-campus student or a same-campus student at 1 (either gender, race, or Greek affiliation), or a combination of 2 (e.g., gender and race), or all 3 levels of specificity (i.e., gender, race, and Greek affiliation). Hypotheses were tested using quasi-Poisson generalized linear models fit by generalized estimating equations.
RESULTS
The PNF intervention participants showed modest reductions in all 4 outcomes (average total drinks, peak drinking, drinking days, and drinking consequences) compared with control participants. No significant differences in drinking outcomes were found between the PNF group as a whole and the Web-BASICS group. Among the 8 PNF conditions, participants receiving typical student PNF demonstrated greater reductions in all 4 outcomes compared with those receiving PNF for more specific reference groups.

1690,23051942,Psychological well-being in medical students during exam stress-influence of short-term practice of mind sound technology.,"INTRODUCTION
Medical education is perceived as stressful. As excessive stress hampers students' performance, stress management is required for medical students. This study was aimed to assess the effect of Mind Sound Technology (MST), an intelligence enhancing program, on psychological well-being of medical undergraduates during exam stress.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
Forty-two medical students were recruited and Dukes Health Profile scoring was done at baseline and during Exam Stress (ES). After pre-intervention measurements, the students were randomized into two groups: non-practitioners and MST practitioners. Post-intervention measurement was done at the end of 6 weeks when the students had examination.
RESULTS
Students showed a significant increase (P < 0.001) in negative health scores like perceived health scores, anxiety, and depression and a significant decrease (P < 0.001) in positive health scores like Self-Esteem, Mental Health Score, Social Health Score, and General Health Score during exam when compared with baseline. MST practice increased positive health scores (P < 0.001) and decreased perceived health score (P < 0.01), anxiety, depression, and anxiety-depression scores significantly (P < 0.001) when compared with ES score. Non practitioners did not show any significant change in any of the scores when compared with ES score. Six weeks of MST practice by medical students have improved the academic scores (P < 0.05) when compared with their non-practitioner counterpart.
CONCLUSION
Thus, practice of MST has helped in coping up the stress that occurs during examination and improved academic performance in medical undergraduates.",2010,"MST practice increased positive health scores (P < 0.001) and decreased perceived health score (P < 0.01), anxiety, depression, and anxiety-depression scores significantly (P < 0.001) when compared with ES score.","['medical undergraduates', 'Forty-two medical students were recruited and Dukes']",['Mind Sound Technology (MST'],"['negative health scores like perceived health scores, anxiety, and depression', 'academic scores', 'academic performance', 'positive health scores', 'anxiety, depression, and anxiety-depression scores', 'health score', 'positive health scores like Self-Esteem, Mental Health Score, Social Health Score, and General Health Score']","[{'cui': 'C0205476', 'cui_str': 'Medical (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C4319566', 'cui_str': 'Forty-two'}, {'cui': 'C0038495', 'cui_str': 'Students, Medical'}]","[{'cui': 'C1293120', 'cui_str': 'Sounding'}, {'cui': 'C0039421', 'cui_str': 'Technology'}]","[{'cui': 'C0205160', 'cui_str': 'Negative (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0018684', 'cui_str': 'Health'}, {'cui': 'C0449820', 'cui_str': 'Scores (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0003467', 'cui_str': 'Anxiety'}, {'cui': 'C0011581', 'cui_str': 'Neurosis, Depressive'}, {'cui': 'C0036373', 'cui_str': 'Academic Performance'}, {'cui': 'C1446409', 'cui_str': 'Positive (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0338908', 'cui_str': 'Mixed anxiety and depressive disorder (disorder)'}, {'cui': 'C0036597', 'cui_str': 'Self Esteem'}, {'cui': 'C0025353', 'cui_str': 'Mental Hygiene'}, {'cui': 'C0205246', 'cui_str': 'Generalized (qualifier value)'}]",42.0,0.0345326,"MST practice increased positive health scores (P < 0.001) and decreased perceived health score (P < 0.01), anxiety, depression, and anxiety-depression scores significantly (P < 0.001) when compared with ES score.","[{'ForeName': 'Haripriya', 'Initials': 'H', 'LastName': 'Dayalan', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Medical Research, SRM Medical College Hospital and Research Centre, Kattankulathur-603203, India. dhpsrm@yahoo.in'}, {'ForeName': 'Swapna', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Subramanian', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Tamilselvi', 'Initials': 'T', 'LastName': 'Elango', 'Affiliation': ''}]",Indian journal of medical sciences,['10.4103/0019-5359.102122']
1691,31870091,Effectiveness of a School-Based 'Tobacco Free' Intervention on Adolescents' Knowledge and Exposure to Second Hand Tobacco Smoke - A Multiphase Study.,"BACKGROUND
There is no safe level of exposure to second hand tobacco smoke (SHS). The World Health Organization has stressed that 100% smoke-free environments are the only effective way to protect the population from the harmful effects of exposure to SHS.
DESIGN
A multiphase study with a descriptive cross-sectional questionnaire phase 1 and a phase 2 cluster randomized controlled trial (RCT), conceptualized to determine the effectiveness of a school-based 'tobacco free' health education intervention on adolescents' knowledge and attitude towards SHS.
METHODS
Baseline assessment will include a questionnaire followed by estimation of salivary cotinine levels. The experimental arm will receive the 'tobacco free' intervention, which includes 40 min health education session delivered once a week for 3 consecutive weeks. Participants will also be given 'take home brochures' every week containing messages on the effects of tobacco and how to make their homes smoke-free. The sample of 250 participants, for the Phase 2 RCT, with salivary cotinine levels of > 0.1 ng/mL will be selected from the participants of the Phase 1 study. The effect of the intervention will be quantitatively assessed by estimating the salivary cotinine levels after the intervention. Participants in the control arm will receive conventional standard health education once.
CONCLUSION
This research will help in assessing if there is any change in the salivary cotinine levels and the knowledge, attitude and behaviour scores after the health educational intervention and help in developing an effective school-based 'tobacco free' intervention program which could be incorporated into the school curriculum. This study has received the Public Health Research Initiative (PHRI) Research Grant of Rs. 18,99,205 and is registered with the Clinical Trial Registry of India (CTRI) with number CTRI/2018/09/015706 (Registered on 13/09/2018).

1692,24231395,The effect of a healthy lifestyle program on the elderly's health in Arak.,"BACKGROUND
Increasing life-expectancy and decreasing birth rate have led to an increase in the elderly population worldwide so that the aging population is considered one of the biggest public health concerns in the present century which demands more attention to this vulnerable group. Therefore, the present study was done to determine the effect of a healthy lifestyle program on elderly's health in Arak.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
This quasi-experimental intervention study was carried out on 60 elderly citizens of Arak. The participants attended four instructional classes on nutrition, exercise, sleep hygiene, life skills, and personal hygiene over one month and they were followed for three months after the intervention. Data were collected through standard quality of life questionnaire (SF-36) and Katz standard ADLs in the elderly questionnaire before and three months after the completion of the study.
RESULTS
The average age of the participants was 67.61 ± 5.02 years. In terms of gender, the majority of the participants (60%) were male. In terms of quality of life before the instructional intervention, 13.3% of the participants were in low level, 30% in average level, 41.7% in good level, and 15% in the high level of quality of life. However, after the intervention, the majority of the participants were in good (38.3%) and high (45%) levels of quality of life which showed significant differences before and after the instructional intervention (P < 0.001). Moreover, there was a significant difference between Katz ADLs in the elderly before and after the intervention (P < 0.001).
CONCLUSION
The comparison between the quality of life and ADLs in the elderly before and after the intervention showed that continuing instruction for the elderly based on a regular healthy lifestyle program is effective and holding different instructional classes for this population, that is often ignored, seems necessary. The findings of this study can help design proper instructional guidelines on healthy lifestyle in the elderly.",2013,"In terms of quality of life before the instructional intervention, 13.3% of the participants were in low level, 30% in average level, 41.7% in good level, and 15% in the high level of quality of life.","['healthy lifestyle in the elderly', ""elderly's health in Arak"", '60 elderly citizens of Arak']",['healthy lifestyle program'],"['quality of life', 'levels of quality of life', 'nutrition, exercise, sleep hygiene, life skills, and personal hygiene', 'Katz ADLs', 'standard quality of life questionnaire (SF-36) and Katz standard ADLs']","[{'cui': 'C4277664', 'cui_str': 'Healthy Life Styles'}, {'cui': 'C0001792', 'cui_str': 'Elderly'}, {'cui': 'C0018684', 'cui_str': 'Health'}]","[{'cui': 'C4277664', 'cui_str': 'Healthy Life Styles'}, {'cui': 'C2728259', 'cui_str': 'Program'}]","[{'cui': 'C0034380'}, {'cui': 'C0456079', 'cui_str': 'Level (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C1442959', 'cui_str': 'Nutrition, function (observable entity)'}, {'cui': 'C0015259', 'cui_str': 'Physical Activity'}, {'cui': 'C4277672', 'cui_str': 'Sleep Hygiene'}, {'cui': 'C0376558', 'cui_str': 'Life'}, {'cui': 'C0564673', 'cui_str': 'Personal hygiene activities, function (observable entity)'}, {'cui': 'C0038137', 'cui_str': 'standards'}, {'cui': 'C0034394', 'cui_str': 'Questionnaires'}]",60.0,0.0266922,"In terms of quality of life before the instructional intervention, 13.3% of the participants were in low level, 30% in average level, 41.7% in good level, and 15% in the high level of quality of life.","[{'ForeName': 'D', 'Initials': 'D', 'LastName': 'Hekmatpou', 'Affiliation': 'Assistant Professor, Ph.D in Health Education, Arak, Iran.'}, {'ForeName': 'M', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Shamsi', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'M', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Zamani', 'Affiliation': ''}]",Indian journal of medical sciences,['10.4103/0019-5359.121119']
1693,24231396,Effect of inhaled fluticasone and salmeterol on tracheal responsiveness and lung inflammation: influence of administration time and allergen-free period.,"BACKGROUND
The effect of inhaled fluticasone propionate (FP) and salmeterol (SM) on tracheal responsiveness (TR) to methacholine and lung pathology of sensitized guinea pig was examined.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
Six groups of guinea pigs (n = 7) were sensitized to ovalbumin (OA). Three groups were subjected to inhaled FP and SM, one group during (A), one group after sensitization (for 18 days, B) and other group during sensitization but with 18-days delay before measurements (C). Other three groups were treated with placebo.
RESULTS
The TR to methacholine and tracheal muscle contractility were significantly higher than those of control group (P < 0.001 for all cases). The lungs of placebo groups showed variable pathological changes (nonsignificant to P < 0.001) compared to control group. TR, intra-alveolar and interabronchoal hemorrhagie (P < 0.001 in only group A) in treated groups with FP and SM were significantly decreased compared to placebo groups. The improvement in all variables in treatment groups A and C were more pronounced than group B.

1694,31541747,Phase 2 trial of a neurokinin-1 receptor antagonist for the treatment of chronic itch in patients with epidermolysis bullosa: A randomized clinical trial.,"BACKGROUND
Chronic pruritus causes major morbidity in epidermolysis bullosa (EB). The substance P-neurokinin 1 receptor (SP-NK1) pathway is a promising target for treating EB-related pruritus.
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the safety and efficacy of the oral NK1 receptor antagonist serlopitant in treating moderate-severe pruritus in EB.
METHODS
The study randomized 14 patients to serlopitant or placebo for 8 weeks, followed by a 4-week washout and optional open-label extension. The primary end point was change in itch as measured by the Numeric Rating Scale. Secondary end points were change in itch during dressing changes and wound size.
RESULTS
We observed greater itch reduction with serlopitant, equivalent to a 0.64-point comparative reduction on the 11-point Numeric Rating Scale by week 8, although this failed to meet statistical significance (P = .11). More serlopitant patients achieved ≥3-point reduction compared with placebo (43% vs 14%, P = .35). In post hoc analysis excluding 1 patient with a concurrent seborrheic dermatitis flare, serlopitant achieved significantly greater median itch reduction from baseline by week 4 (-2 points vs 0, P = .01). We observed no statistically significant differences in secondary end points. Serlopitant was well-tolerated.
LIMITATIONS
Small sample size due to disease rarity.
CONCLUSION
The potential itch reduction with serlopitant observed in this trial will be pursued by a larger powered trial (NCT03836001).",2020,"More serlopitant patients achieved ≥3-point reduction compared to placebo (43% vs. 14%, p=0.35).","['moderate-severe pruritus in EB', '14 patients', 'Epidermolysis Bullosa Patients']","['placebo', 'Neurokinin-1 Receptor Antagonist', 'serlopitant or placebo', 'oral NK1 receptor antagonist serlopitant']","['median itch reduction', 'tolerated', 'change in: (1) itch during dressing changes and (2) wound size', '≥3-point reduction', '11-point NRS', 'change in itch as measured by a numeric rating scale (NRS', 'safety and efficacy']","[{'cui': 'C0205081', 'cui_str': 'Moderate (severity modifier) (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0205082', 'cui_str': 'Severe (severity modifier) (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0033774', 'cui_str': 'Pruritis'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C0014527', 'cui_str': 'Acantholysis Bullosa'}]","[{'cui': 'C1696465', 'cui_str': 'placebo'}, {'cui': 'C4521486', 'cui_str': 'Neurokinin 1 receptor antagonist'}, {'cui': 'C2825662', 'cui_str': 'serlopitant'}, {'cui': 'C4521986', 'cui_str': 'Oral (intended site)'}, {'cui': 'C4543207', 'cui_str': 'Receptor antagonist'}]","[{'cui': 'C2939193', 'cui_str': 'Median (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0033774', 'cui_str': 'Pruritis'}, {'cui': 'C4551656', 'cui_str': 'Surgical reduction'}, {'cui': 'C0443172', 'cui_str': 'State changes'}, {'cui': 'C0085671', 'cui_str': 'Dressing change'}, {'cui': 'C0021501', 'cui_str': 'wounds'}, {'cui': 'C0456389', 'cui_str': 'Size (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C1879489', 'cui_str': 'Measures (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0222045'}, {'cui': 'C0036043', 'cui_str': 'Safety'}]",,0.109546,"More serlopitant patients achieved ≥3-point reduction compared to placebo (43% vs. 14%, p=0.35).","[{'ForeName': 'Albert S', 'Initials': 'AS', 'LastName': 'Chiou', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Dermatology, Stanford University School of Medicine, Redwood City, California.

1695,23023308,Efficacy of esmolol administration at different time intervals in attenuating hemodynamic response to tracheal intubation.,"BACKGROUND
Laryngoscopy and endotracheal intubation are known to cause increase in both arterial blood pressure and heart rate. Several strategies have been evolved to blunt the haemodynamic response to tracheal intubation but each method has its own advantages and disadvantages. Esmolol, a cardio selective Beta-1 blocking drug, can alleviate some of these problems. Esmolol, when administered parenterally, exhibits rapid onset and a short duration of action due to its rapid clearance by red blood cell esterases. Hence we conducted the present study to evaluate the efficacy and optimum time of single bolus esmolol administration in attenuating hypertensive- tachycardiac response to laryngoscopy and tracheal intubation.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
The randomized double blind prospective study was conducted in 60 patients, in the age group of 20-40 years, of both sexes, belonging to American Society of Anaesthesiologists (ASA) physical status class I or II and scheduled for elective surgery requiring endotracheal intubation and general anaesthesia. The efficacy and optimum time of single bolus esmolol administration in attenuating hypertensive - tachycardiac response to laryngoscopy and tracheal intubation was evaluated. Patients in group I (n = 20) received bolus administration of injection esmolol 1.5 mg/kg intravenously (iv) 90 seconds before intubation; in group II (n = 20) three minutes before intubation and in group III (n = 20) six minutes before intubation.
RESULTS
There was no clinical and statistically significant variation in heart rate in group I and II at different time intervals of the study period but in group III heart rate increased significantly one minute after tracheal intubation. (P < 0.05) One minute after intubation, the increase in systolic, diastolic and mean blood pressure and rate pressure product was statistically significant in group I (P < 0.01) and group III. (P < 0.05) However, in group II increase in systolic blood pressure and rate pressure product was statistically not significant. (P > 0.05)

1696,22945778,Effect of lidocaine gel on pain from copper IUD insertion: a randomized double-blind controlled trial.,"CONTEXT
Insertion pain or fear of it may make women hesitate to use the intrauterine device (IUD); a long-term, reversible, highly-effective contraception method. Further study has been recommended on the effects of lidocaine (xylocaine) gel on IUD insertion pain in the recent Cochran review.
AIMS
To determine the effect of lidocaine gel on pain from TCu-380AIUD insertion.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
At a health center in Tabriz, Iran, 96 women were allocated into 3 groups using block randomization with 6 and 9 block sizes considering allocation concealment. In 1 st group, lidocaine 2% gel and in the 2 nd , lubricant gel was placed in the cervical canal 1 minute before an IUD insertion, and the 3 rd group got no intervention. Immediately after IUD insertion, pain during the insertion was measured using 0-10 cm visual analogue scale.
STATISTICAL ANALYSIS USED
Kruskal-Wallis and linear regression in SPSS-13 were used to identify effect of lidocaine gel on the pain.
RESULTS
Overall, the mean pain score was 3.5 ± 1.8. In univariate analysis, there was no significant difference in pain scores between the 3 groups. Also, results of linear regression model by controlling effect of the possible confounding showed no significant effect of lidocaine gel on the insertion pain. The mean pain score in the lidocaine group was 0.39 less than the no intervention group, but it was not significant (CI 95% of the difference: -1.3, 0.57).
CONCLUSIONS
Use of 2% lidocaine gel into the cervical canal has no effect on reducing overall pain during IUD insertion.",2010,"The mean pain score in the lidocaine group was 0.39 less than the no intervention group, but it was not significant (CI 95% of the difference: -1.3, 0.57).

1697,23548251,Efficacy of misoprostol administration 24 hours after mifepristone for termination of early pregnancy.,"INTRODUCTION
Mifepristone and misoprostol are the two drugs which are given at 36-48 h interval for medical abortion. This study was designed to study the efficacy of early administration of misoprostol (24 h after mifepristone) for medical termination of pregnancy less than 9 weeks and to compare this with standard protocol of mifepristone misoprostol combination at 48 h interval.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
Subjects for this single center prospective randomized case-control study were enrolled from the family planning outdoor patient department at our hospital with gestational age of less than 9 weeks. All subjects initially received 200 mg of oral mifepristone and then were randomly assigned to receive per vaginal 400 μg misoprostol at 24 h (study group) and 48 h (control group). They were then followed up after 14 days with transvaginal sonography to confirm completion of expulsion. Treatment was considered failed if surgical evacuation was needed for any indication. Primary outcome measure was success rate of the two treatment regimens.
RESULTS
Totally, 200 subjects were randomly allocated to each treatment arm (100 each). Complete expulsion was seen in 94% (94/100) in study group and 95% (95/100) in control group according to intention to treat analysis (P value ns). According to per protocol analysis success rate in study group was 93.6% and 94.3% in control group (P value ns). High failure rate after 7 weeks period of gestation in both the study and control group was found (26.3% and 30.0%; P value ns). Adverse effects were mostly similar in both the groups.

1698,23529834,Efficacy of early treatment on 52 patients with preneoplastic hepatitis B virus-associated hepatocellular carcinoma by compound Phyllanthus Urinaria L.,"OBJECTIVE
To observe the change in the number of antibodies of preneoplastic hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) using early treatment by Compound Phyllanthus Urinaria L. (CPUL) on patients with preneoplastic hepatitis B virus (HBV)-associated HCC.
METHODS
A total of 102 cirrhosis patients with regenerative or dysplastic nodules whose sera were tested positive for at least one of these six proteins (five up-regulated genes URG4, URG7, URG11, URG12 and URG19, and one down-regulated gene DRG2) were assigned randomly to two groups using continual random codes by SPSS software. Fifty-two patients were in the treatment group and 50 patients were in the control group. CPUL was used in the treatment group for 3 years, while the control group did not receive any treatment. The changes in HBV-DNA level, number of antibodies, and hepatocarcinogenesis occurred were observed. Patients who did not develop HCC were followed up for another 2 years.
RESULTS
HBV-DNA levels decreased ⩾2log in 22.2% (10/45) of patients in the treatment group in contrast to only 5.0% (2/40) of patients in the control group (P=0.0228). The number of antibodies that were tested positive in the treatment group (1.08±1.01) was significantly lower compared with the control group (2.11±1.12) after 24 months of drug treatment (P<0.01). Both the positive rates of anti-URG11 (33/52) and anti-URG19 (31/52) were over 60% at baseline in the two groups, and were decreased to 48.1% (25/52) and 46.2% (24/52) respectively at 36 months of drug treatment, while the rates increased to 68.0% (34/50) and 66.0% (33/50) respectively (P=0.0417, P=0.0436) in the control group. The positive rate of anti-DRG2 was increased to 55.8% (29/52) at 36 months of drug treatment, while in the control group was decreased to 36.0% (18/50, P=0.0452). Among the 102 patients who developed HCC, 2 were in the treatment group and 9 were in the control group, meaning that a significant difference between the two groups (P=0.0212). In 11 patients who developed HCC, anti-URG11 and anti-URG19 were always positive, while anti-DRG2 was negative. Patients newly developing HCC were 6 (20.0%) in the control group, and only one (2.5%) in the treatment group (P=0.0441) during 2-year follow-up after the end of the treatment.
CONCLUSIONS
Anti-URG11, anti-URG19 and anti-DRG2 could be used as early markers in the prediction of the therapeutic efficacy of CPUL in treating preneoplastic HCC. CPUL is useful in preventing or delaying the development of HBV-associated cirrhosis to HCC.",2014,"RESULTS

1699,23525022,Effect of early elbow crutch mobility on patients with post-anterior cruciate ligament repair.,"OBJECTIVE
Rehabilitation after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction has focused over the past decade on early mobility and exercises in the recent years, due to advancements in the surgical techniques, presumably less strain on the graft. Thus it was necessary to investigate the effect of early mobilization with the single elbow crutch with conventional methods and its outcome responses.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
Totally, 40 subjects of day 1 post-ACL oblique repair with mean age of 25 ± 5.3 years participated in the study. Subjects were divided into experimental and control groups for rehabilitation with single elbow crutch and walker, respectively, along with conventional exercises for 6 weeks. After 4th week elbow crutch and walker were discarded for both groups. Interventional outcomes were assessed by static, dynamic stability, and knee functional score at 4th and 6th weeks post-operatively for both groups.
RESULTS
Both groups showed statistically significant difference in static and dynamic stability at 4th and 6th weeks. Whereas compared with experimental group, in control group Lysholm functional score was low in at 4th and 6th weeks. It was found that outcomes were improved within each group from 4th to 6th week.
CONCLUSION

1700,23525025,Comparison of gastrointestinal symptoms at daily 10 mg versus weekly 70 mg Alendronate prescription in 195 osteoporotic cases.,"BACKGROUND
Osteoporosis is defined as a reduction of bone density or the presence of a fragility fracture. One class of new antiosteoporotic drugs is the bisphosphonates. Oral bisphosphonates seems to induce serious gastrointestinal (GI) side effects in some patients. The aim of the study is to comparison the GI symptoms of Alendronate daily 10mg versus weekly 70mg administration in osteoporotic patients during 8 weeks.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
This is a clinical trial study that was conducted in the department of Internal Medicine, Shohada Ashayer Hospital, Khorramabad, Iran, 2002-2007. 195 osteoporotic patients selected for this study. They separated in three groups (first group: Placebo for eight weeks, 2 nd group 70 mg Alendronate at single dose per weeks for eight weeks and 3 rd group 10 mg Alendronate per day for 8 weeks). Then GI symptoms were detected for each person at different groups.
STATISTICAL ANALYSIS
The Data was analyzed with Chi-square test and ANOVA.
RESULTS
comparison of mean of complications between groups shows that the patients in placebo group had lesser complications (P < 0.001). Comparison of each symptom between patients in 2 nd and 3 rd groups shows that only eructation had lesser frequency in first group of patients and other complications had not significant difference during 8 weeks of treatment.
CONCLUSION
there is significant differences in GI symptoms between placebo and Alendronate but between Alendronate in doses of 10mg per day and 70 mg per week had not significant difference. Using of Alendronate must be cautiously because of producing severe GI disorders.",2011,"RESULTS

1702,23391831,Clinical efficacy of subgingivally delivered 0.5% controlled release azithromycin gel in the management of chronic periodontitis.,"BACKGROUND
Recent developments suggest that the local delivery of antimicrobials into periodontal pockets can improve periodontal health. Azithromycin (AZM) has a wide antimicrobial spectrum of action toward anaerobic bacteria as well as Gram-negative bacilli. It is effective against periodontal pathogens such as Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans and Porphyromonas gingivalis. Therefore, this study was undertaken to investigate the clinical effectiveness of AZM at 0.5% concentration in an indigenously prepared bioabsorbable controlled release gel as an adjunct to non-surgical mechanical therapy in the treatment of chronic periodontitis.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
Thirty sites in patients with chronic periodontitis and probing depth (PD) 4-6 mm were categorized randomly into two treatment groups: Scaling and root planing (SRP) plus 0.5% AZM gel (group 1) and SRP only (group 2). Clinical evaluation was undertaken using the Gingival Index (GI) of Loe and Silness and plaque was assessed using the Turesky et al. modification of Quigley Hein Index at baseline and 21 days. Pocket PD and clinical attachment level (CAL) were also measured.
STATISTICAL ANALYSIS
Results were expressed as mean±standard deviation and percentages and the data were analyzed using Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS version 16.0, SPSS, Chicago, IL) software.
RESULT
Both therapies resulted in significant improvements. Mean reduction in GI from baseline to 21 days was 1.20±0.41 and 0.73±0.45 in group 1 and group 2, respectively. Plaque Index also improved through the study period in both groups, i.e., 0.86±0.51 in group 1 and 1.6±0.97 in group 2. Mean PD reduced significantly with SRP plus AZM gel application in group 1, i.e., 2.1±0.91 mm as compared to 1.0±1.06 mm achieved with SRP alone. A significant gain in mean CAL gain was observed in the test group (1.8±0.63 mm) as compared to control group (1.0±1.06 mm).
CONCLUSION
Although both treatment strategies seem to benefit patients, the adjunctive use of 0.5% of AZM showed significant results.",2011,"A significant gain in mean CAL gain was observed in the test group (1.8±0.63 mm) as compared to control group (1.0±1.06 mm).

1703,32035854,Randomized Trial of a Virtual Reality Tool to Teach Surgical Technique for Tibial Shaft Fracture Intramedullary Nailing.,"INTRODUCTION
Active learning methods have accumulated popularity due to improved results in knowledge acquisition as opposed to passive learning methods. For surgical resident physicians with limited training opportunities outside of the operating room due to time constraints, virtual reality (VR) is a relatively inexpensive and time-efficient active training method for procurement of surgical skills. We conducted a simulated intramedullary nailing (IMN) of a tibia to demonstrate VR training programs as a more effective modality of learning orthopedic surgical techniques compared to passive learning tools such as a standard guide (SG) through trained novice medical students performing a SawBones simulation of intramedullary nail fixation.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
First and second-year medical students without prior experience of procedure were recruited and randomized to SG or VR training. Participants were observed performing simulated tibia IMN procedure immediately after training and evaluated by a blinded attending surgeon using procedure-specific checklist and 5-point global assessment scale. Participants returned after 2-weeks for repeat training and evaluation.
RESULTS
20 participants were recruited and randomized into VR (n = 10) and SG (n = 10) groups. All 20 participants completed the first phase and 17 completed the second phase of the study. Aggregate global assessment scores were significantly higher for VR than SG group (17.5 vs. 7.5, p < 0.001), including scores in all individual categories. The percentage of steps completed correctly was significantly higher in the VR group compared to the SG group (63% vs. 25%, p < 0.002). Average improvement between the first and second phases of the study were higher in the VR group compared to SG group across all 5-categories of the global assessment scale, and significantly higher for knowledge of instruments (50% vs. 11%, p, 0.01).
DISCUSSION
VR training was more effective than a passive SG in our model of simulated tibia IMN for novice medical students. Virtual reality training may be a useful method to augment orthopedic education.",2020,"Average improvement between the first and second phases of the study were higher in the VR group compared to SG group across all 5-categories of the global assessment scale, and significantly higher for knowledge of instruments (50% vs. 11%, p, 0.01).

1704,23364504,Effect of multimodality chest physiotherapy on the rate of recovery and prevention of complications in patients with mechanical ventilation: a prospective study in medical and surgical intensive care units.,"BACKGROUND
Mechanically ventilated patients have an increased risk of complications leading to ventilation weaning more difficult resulting in excessive morbidity and mortality. Chest physiotherapy plays an important role in management of ventilated patients. However, these techniques have been studied on patients as a single entity or with combination of two techniques. The present study was designed to evaluate the effect of multimodality chest physiotherapy on the rate of recovery and prevention of complications in adult ventilated patients.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
Out of 173 patients who were randomly allocated to two groups, 86 patients received MH and suctioning in control group and 87 patients were treated with multimodality chest physiotherapy in the study group twice daily till they were extubated. All patients were followed up for the global outcomes and complications during mechanical ventilation.
RESULTS
There were significant improvements in terms of rate of recovery in study group compared to the control group (P = 0.000). Complication rates were higher with 61.6% in the control group as compared to 26.4% in the study group. Duration of hospitalization was longer in the study group (16 ± 9.40 days) as compared to the control group (12.8 ± 6.12 days). Successful weaning from mechanical ventilation was noted in 58 patients in the study group and 24 patients in the control group which was statistically significant.
CONCLUSIONS

1705,23364505,Are we ignoring diabetic disability: a cross sectional study of diabetic myopathy.,"BACKGROUND
The complications associated with type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (DM) may cause functional impairment in older people. Recently it has been proved that motor dysfunction in the form of skeletal muscle dysfunction does occur in type II DM. However very few studies have assessed the upper limb skeletal muscle dysfunction.
OBJECTIVES
The study was aimed to assess the hand grip strength, endurance in type 2 DM patients and compare the same with age matched healthy controls. We also correlated glycosylated Hb and duration of illness with the hand grip strength and endurance in the patients.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
Hand grip dynamometer was used to measure the hand grip strength and endurance in sixty diagnosed patients of type II DM. Similar tests were performed in age matched healthy controls. Blood samples were collected for blood glucose fasting, postprandial levels and Hb1AC in both the groups. Comparisons between patients and controls, and correlations were done by applying suitable tests.
RESULTS
The hand grip muscle strength and endurance in type II DM patients were significantly lower as compared to the normal controls (P < 0.05, P < 0.001). There was no correlation between the hand grip muscle strength and endurance with HbA1c and the duration of the disease in the patients of type II DM (P > 0.05).
CONCLUSIONS
The present study shows that type II DM patients suffer from skeletal muscle dysfunction in the form of reduced hand grip strength and endurance. Hence the treating Physician should not be ignorant about these disabilities. In addition to the strict measures to control the blood glucose levels, interventions to improve the muscle mass and strength in these patients should be undertaken.",2011,"The hand grip muscle strength and endurance in type II DM patients were significantly lower as compared to the normal controls (P < 0.05, P < 0.001).","['age matched healthy controls', 'type 2 DM patients and compare the same with age matched healthy controls', 'older people', 'sixty diagnosed patients of type II DM']",[],"['hand grip muscle strength and endurance', 'hand grip muscle strength and endurance with HbA1c and the duration of the disease', 'blood glucose fasting, postprandial levels and Hb1AC']","[{'cui': 'C0001792', 'cui_str': 'Elderly'}, {'cui': 'C0336766', 'cui_str': 'Matches'}, {'cui': 'C2587213', 'cui_str': 'Controlled (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0441730', 'cui_str': 'Type 2 (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C0677546', 'cui_str': 'Old episode (qualifier value)'}]",[],"[{'cui': 'C1293900', 'cui_str': 'Hand grip'}, {'cui': 'C0517349', 'cui_str': 'Muscle Strength'}, {'cui': 'C0518031', 'cui_str': 'Endurance capacity'}, {'cui': 'C0202054', 'cui_str': 'HbA1C'}, {'cui': 'C2926735', 'cui_str': 'Duration'}, {'cui': 'C0012634', 'cui_str': 'Disease'}, {'cui': 'C0005802', 'cui_str': 'Blood Sugar'}, {'cui': 'C0456962', 'cui_str': 'Rapidly'}, {'cui': 'C0376674', 'cui_str': 'Postcibal Period'}, {'cui': 'C0456079', 'cui_str': 'Level (attribute)'}]",60.0,0.0205891,"The hand grip muscle strength and endurance in type II DM patients were significantly lower as compared to the normal controls (P < 0.05, P < 0.001).","[{'ForeName': 'Swati', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Shah', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Physiology, B.

1707,32070297,Effect of availability of HIV self-testing on HIV testing frequency among men who have sex with men attending university in China (UniTest): protocol of a stepped-wedge randomized controlled trial.,"BACKGROUND
HIV testing plays a central role in the combat against HIV. We aimed to determine if the availability of HIV self-testing (HIVST) would increase the frequency of testing among men who have sex with men (MSM) attending university in China.
METHODS
A stepped wedge randomized controlled trial will be conducted in 4 provinces in China: Chongqing, Guangdong, Shandong, and Tianjin. Eligibility assessment will include (1) male, aged 16 years or older, (2) university student (technical diploma and undergraduate students), (3) MSM (sexual behaviors including mutual masturbation, oral sex, and anal sex), (4) HIV negative, and (5) willing to provide informed consent. Participants will be randomly allocated to HIV self-testing intervention with free HIVST kits in every 30 days according to the intervention waiting lists with a computer-generated randomized sequence. All participants will complete a self-administrated online questionnaire onsite at baseline and 12-month follow-up and complete an online questionnaire at 4- and 8-month. The primary outcome is the effect of HIVST on HIV testing frequency. Secondary outcomes include the change in sexual behaviors and HIV incidence.
DISCUSSION
No previous study had measured the effect of social media based HIVST intervention on the change in HIV testing behaviors, sexual behaviors and incident HIV infection among MSM attending university in China. Findings from this study will provide evidence for further interventional practice promotions and prevention strategies scale-up, including HIV testing, pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) or post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP), and sexual partner serosorting.

1708,31255307,Effects of Different Frequencies of Whole Body Vibration on Repositioning Error in Patients With Chronic Low Back Pain in Different Angles of Lumbar Flexion.,"OBJECTIVE
This study aimed to evaluate the effect of high and low frequency of whole body vibration (WBV) on repositioning error in 3 different angles of lumbar flexion in patients with chronic low back pain.
METHODS
Twenty-four participants with chronic low back pain, aged between 20 and 35 years, were included in this randomized crossover trial study. Participants were randomly assigned into 2 groups as follows: (1) low frequency/high frequency, and (2) high frequency/low frequency. Participants received high-frequency (50 Hz) and low-frequency (30 Hz) WBV in a semi-squat position for 5 minutes in 2 sessions, with 2 weeks of rest. Before and after the WBV, lumbar repositioning error in 30% and 60% of lumbar full flexion and neutral position with eyes closed when standing was evaluated using an electrogoniometer.
RESULTS
The repositioning error was decreased in neutral, 30%, and 60% of lumbar flexion after the low-frequency and high-frequency WBV. Post hoc testing revealed that the effect of angle was not significant in repositioning error changes between high-frequency and low-frequency WBV (P > .05). However, the effect of low-frequency WBV on the repositioning error was significantly higher compared with high-frequency WBV (P < .05).
CONCLUSION
Low-frequency WBV might induce more improvement in the accuracy of lumbopelvic repositioning compared with high-frequency WBV with the method of WBV used in this study.",2019,Low-frequency WBV might induce more improvement in the accuracy of lumbopelvic repositioning compared with high-frequency WBV with the method of WBV used in this study.,"['patients with chronic low back pain', 'Patients With Chronic Low Back Pain in Different Angles of Lumbar Flexion', 'Twenty-four participants with chronic low back pain, aged between 20 and 35 years']","['Different Frequencies of Whole Body Vibration', 'high and low frequency of whole body vibration (WBV']","['lumbar repositioning error', 'repositioning error']","[{'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C0457949', 'cui_str': 'Chronic low back pain (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C0205143', 'cui_str': 'Angular (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0024090', 'cui_str': 'Lumbar Region'}, {'cui': 'C0231452', 'cui_str': 'Flexion, function (observable entity)'}, {'cui': 'C3715070', 'cui_str': '24 (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0001792', 'cui_str': 'Elderly'}, {'cui': 'C0439234', 'cui_str': 'year (qualifier value)'}]","[{'cui': 'C0376249', 'cui_str': 'Frequency (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0444584', 'cui_str': 'Whole body (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0459800', 'cui_str': 'Vibration'}, {'cui': 'C0205250', 'cui_str': 'High (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0205213', 'cui_str': 'Low frequency (qualifier value)'}]","[{'cui': 'C0024090', 'cui_str': 'Lumbar Region'}, {'cui': 'C0556030', 'cui_str': 'Repositioning (procedure)'}]",24.0,0.0536008,Low-frequency WBV might induce more improvement in the accuracy of lumbopelvic repositioning compared with high-frequency WBV with the method of WBV used in this study.,"[{'ForeName': 'Nashmin', 'Initials': 'N', 'LastName': 'Sajadi', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Physiotherapy, School of Rehabilitation Sciences, Iran University of Medical Sciences and Health Services, Tehran, Iran.'}, {'ForeName': 'Rasool', 'Initials': 'R', 'LastName': 'Bagheri', 'Affiliation': 'Neuromuscular Rehabilitation Research Center, Semnan University of Medical Sciences, Semnan, Iran.'}, {'ForeName': 'Ali', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Amiri', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Physiotherapy, School of Rehabilitation Sciences, Iran University of Medical Sciences and Health Services, Tehran, Iran.

1709,31335570,"Safety and Efficacy of Ceftazidime-Avibactam in the Treatment of Children ≥3 Months to <18 Years With Complicated Urinary Tract Infection: Results from a Phase 2 Randomized, Controlled Trial.","BACKGROUND
Ceftazidime-avibactam is effective and well tolerated in adults with complicated urinary tract infection (cUTI), but has not been evaluated in children with cUTI.
METHODS
This single-blind, multicenter, active-controlled, phase 2 study (NCT02497781) randomized children ≥3 months to <18 years with cUTI (3:1) to receive intravenous (IV) ceftazidime-avibactam or cefepime for ≥72 hours, with subsequent optional oral switch. Total treatment duration was 7-14 days. Primary objective was assessment of safety. Secondary objectives included descriptive efficacy and pharmacokinetics. A blinded observer determined adverse event (AE) causality and clinical outcomes up to the late follow-up visit (20-36 days after the last dose of IV/oral therapy).
RESULTS
In total, 95 children received ≥1 dose of IV study drug (ceftazidime-avibactam, n = 67; cefepime, n = 28). The predominant baseline Gram-negative uropathogen was Escherichia coli (92.2%). AEs occurred in 53.7% and 53.6% patients in the ceftazidime-avibactam and cefepime groups, respectively. Serious AEs occurred in 11.9% (ceftazidime-avibactam) and 7.1% (cefepime) patients. One serious AE (ceftazidime-avibactam group) was considered drug related. In the microbiologic intent-to-treat analysis set, favorable clinical response rates >95% were observed for both groups at end-of-IV and remained 88.9% (ceftazidime-avibactam) and 82.6% (cefepime) at test-of-cure. Favorable per-patient microbiologic response at test-of-cure was 79.6% (ceftazidime-avibactam) and 60.9% (cefepime).

Ceftazidime-avibactam was well tolerated in children with cUTI, with a safety profile consistent with that of adults with cUTI and of ceftazidime alone, and appeared effective in children with cUTI due to Gram-negative pathogens.",2019,Serious AEs occurred in 11.9% (ceftazidime-avibactam) and 7.1% (cefepime) patients.,"['children with cUTI', 'children ≥3 months to <18 years with cUTI (3:1) to receive', 'adults with complicated urinary tract infection (cUTI', 'Children ≥3 Months to <18 Years With Complicated Urinary Tract Infection']","['Ceftazidime-Avibactam', 'intravenous (IV) ceftazidime-avibactam or cefepime', 'ceftazidime', 'Ceftazidime-avibactam']","['adverse event (AE) causality and clinical outcomes', 'Total treatment duration', 'Serious AEs', 'Favorable per-patient microbiologic response', 'AEs', 'descriptive efficacy and pharmacokinetics', 'Safety and Efficacy', 'clinical response rates']","[{'cui': 'C0008059', 'cui_str': 'Child'}, {'cui': 'C0439231', 'cui_str': 'month (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0439234', 'cui_str': 'year (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0001675', 'cui_str': 'Adult'}, {'cui': 'C4552431', 'cui_str': 'Complicated urinary tract infection'}]","[{'cui': 'C3656596', 'cui_str': 'avibactam / Ceftazidime'}, {'cui': 'C0348016', 'cui_str': 'Intravenous (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0055003', 'cui_str': 'cefepime'}, {'cui': 'C0007559', 'cui_str': 'Ceftazidime'}]","[{'cui': 'C0877248', 'cui_str': 'Adverse event'}, {'cui': 'C0015127', 'cui_str': 'causes'}, {'cui': 'C0205210', 'cui_str': 'Clinical (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0439810', 'cui_str': 'Total (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0087111', 'cui_str': 'Therapy'}, {'cui': 'C2926735', 'cui_str': 'Duration'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C0031327', 'cui_str': 'Drug Kinetics'}, {'cui': 'C0036043', 'cui_str': 'Safety'}]",95.0,0.17366,Serious AEs occurred in 11.9% (ceftazidime-avibactam) and 7.1% (cefepime) patients.,"[{'ForeName': 'John S', 'Initials': 'JS', 'LastName': 'Bradley', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Emmanuel', 'Initials': 'E', 'LastName': 'Roilides', 'Affiliation': '3rd Department of Pediatrics, Aristotle University School of Health Sciences, Hippokration Hospital, Thessaloniki, Greece.'}, {'ForeName': 'Helen', 'Initials': 'H', 'LastName': 'Broadhurst', 'Affiliation': 'AstraZeneca, Alderley Park, Cheshire, United Kingdom.'}, {'ForeName': 'Karen', 'Initials': 'K', 'LastName': 'Cheng', 'Affiliation': 'Pfizer, Sandwich, Kent, United Kingdom.'}, {'ForeName': 'Li-Min', 'Initials': 'LM', 'LastName': 'Huang', 'Affiliation': 'National Taiwan University Hospital, Taipei, Taiwan.'}, {'ForeName': 'Veronica', 'Initials': 'V', 'LastName': 'MasCasullo', 'Affiliation': 'Allergan plc, Madison, NJ.'}, {'ForeName': 'Paul', 'Initials': 'P', 'LastName': 'Newell', 'Affiliation': 'AstraZeneca, Alderley Park, Cheshire, United Kingdom.'}, {'ForeName': 'Gregory G', 'Initials': 'GG', 'LastName': 'Stone', 'Affiliation': 'Pfizer, Groton, CT.'}, {'ForeName': 'Margaret', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Tawadrous', 'Affiliation': 'Pfizer, Groton, CT.'}, {'ForeName': 'Dalia', 'Initials': 'D', 'LastName': 'Wajsbrot', 'Affiliation': 'Pfizer, New York, NY.'}, {'ForeName': 'Katrina', 'Initials': 'K', 'LastName': 'Yates', 'Affiliation': 'AstraZeneca, Alderley Park, Cheshire, United Kingdom.'}, {'ForeName': 'Annie', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Gardner', 'Affiliation': 'Pfizer, Cambridge, MA.'}]",The Pediatric infectious disease journal,['10.1097/INF.0000000000002395']
1710,31540867,"Efficacy and safety of once-weekly semaglutide versus daily canagliflozin as add-on to metformin in patients with type 2 diabetes (SUSTAIN 8): a double-blind, phase 3b, randomised controlled trial.","BACKGROUND
Existing guidelines for management of type 2 diabetes recommend a patient-centred approach to guide the choice of pharmacological agents. Although glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists and sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitors are increasingly used as second-line agents, direct comparisons between these treatments are insufficient. In the SUSTAIN 8 trial, we compared the efficacy and safety of semaglutide (a GLP-1 receptor agonist) with canagliflozin (an SGLT2 inhibitor) in patients with type 2 diabetes.
METHODS
This was a double-blind, parallel-group, phase 3b, randomised controlled trial done at 111 centres in 11 countries. Eligible patients were at least 18 years old and had uncontrolled type 2 diabetes (HbA 1c 7·0-10·5% [53-91 mmol/mol]) on stable daily metformin therapy. Patients were randomly assigned (1:1) by use of an interactive web response system to subcutaneous semaglutide 1·0 mg once weekly or oral canagliflozin 300 mg once daily. The primary endpoint was change from baseline in HbA 1c , and the confirmatory secondary endpoint was change from baseline in bodyweight, both at week 52. The primary analysis population included all randomly assigned patients, using on-treatment data collected before initiation of rescue medication. The safety analysis was done on a population that included all patients exposed to at least one dose of trial product. The trial was powered for HbA 1c and bodyweight superiority under reasonable assumptions. This trial is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT03136484.
FINDINGS
Between March 15, 2017, and Nov 16, 2018, 788 patients were randomly assigned to semaglutide 1·0 mg (394 patients) or canagliflozin 300 mg (394 patients). 739 patients completed the trial (367 in the semaglutide group and 372 in the canagliflozin group). From overall baseline mean, patients receiving semaglutide had significantly greater reductions in HbA 1c and bodyweight than those receiving canagliflozin (HbA 1c estimated treatment difference [ETD] -0·49 percentage points, 95% CI -0·65 to -0·33; -5·34 mmol/mol, 95% CI -7·10 to -3·57; p<0·0001; and bodyweight ETD -1·06 kg, 95% CI -1·76 to -0·36; p=0·0029). Gastrointestinal disorders, most commonly nausea, were the most frequently reported adverse events with semaglutide, occurring in 184 (47%) of 392 patients; whereas infections and infestations (defined using the Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities, version 21.0), most commonly urinary tract infections, occurred more frequently with canagliflozin, in 136 (35%) of 394 patients. Premature treatment discontinuation because of adverse events occurred in 38 (10%) of 392 patients with semaglutide and in 20 (5%) of 394 patients with canagliflozin. One fatal adverse event confirmed unlikely to be caused by treatment occurred in the semaglutide group.
INTERPRETATION
Once-weekly semaglutide 1·0 mg was superior to daily canagliflozin 300 mg in reducing HbA 1c and bodyweight in patients with type 2 diabetes uncontrolled on metformin therapy. These outcomes might guide treatment intensification choices.

1711,31843251,Quality of life after pharmacomechanical catheter-directed thrombolysis for proximal deep venous thrombosis.,"BACKGROUND
After deep venous thrombosis (DVT), many patients have impaired quality of life (QOL). We aimed to assess whether pharmacomechanical catheter-directed thrombolysis (PCDT) improves short-term or long-term QOL in patients with proximal DVT and whether QOL is related to extent of DVT.
METHODS
The Acute Venous Thrombosis: Thrombus Removal with Adjunctive Catheter-Directed Thrombolysis (ATTRACT) trial was an assessor-blinded randomized trial that compared PCDT with no PCDT in patients with DVT of the femoral, common femoral, or iliac veins. QOL was assessed at baseline and 1 month, 6 months, 12 months, 18 months, and 24 months using the Venous Insufficiency Epidemiological and Economic Study on Quality of Life/Symptoms (VEINES-QOL/Sym) disease-specific QOL measure and the 36-Item Short Form Health Survey (SF-36) physical component summary (PCS) and mental component summary general QOL measures. Change in QOL scores from baseline to assessment time were compared in the PCDT and no PCDT treatment groups overall and in the iliofemoral DVT and femoral-popliteal DVT subgroups.
RESULTS
Of 692 ATTRACT patients, 691 were analyzed (mean age, 53 years; 62% male; 57% iliofemoral DVT). VEINES-QOL change scores were greater (ie, better) in PCDT vs no PCDT from baseline to 1 month (difference, 5.7; P = .0006) and from baseline to 6 months (5.1; P = .0029) but not for other intervals. SF-36 PCS change scores were greater in PCDT vs no PCDT from baseline to 1 month (difference, 2.4; P = .01) but not for other intervals. Among iliofemoral DVT patients, VEINES-QOL change scores from baseline to all assessments were greater in the PCDT vs no PCDT group; this was statistically significant in the intention-to-treat analysis at 1 month (difference, 10.0; P < .0001) and 6 months (8.8; P < .0001) and in the per-protocol analysis at 18 months (difference, 5.8; P = .0086) and 24 months (difference, 6.6; P = .0067). SF-36 PCS change scores were greater in PCDT vs no PCDT from baseline to 1 month (difference, 3.2; P = .0010) but not for other intervals. In contrast, in femoral-popliteal DVT patients, change scores from baseline to all assessments were similar in the PCDT and no PCDT groups.
CONCLUSIONS
Among patients with proximal DVT, PCDT leads to greater improvement in disease-specific QOL than no PCDT at 1 month and 6 months but not later. In patients with iliofemoral DVT, PCDT led to greater improvement in disease-specific QOL during 24 months.",2020,"Among patients with proximal DVT, PCDT leads to greater improvement in disease-specific QOL than no PCDT at 1 month and 6 months but not later.","['patients with DVT of the femoral, common femoral, or iliac veins', 'proximal deep venous thrombosis', 'Of 692 ATTRACT patients, 691 were analyzed (mean age', '53\xa0years; 62% male; 57% iliofemoral DVT', 'patients with proximal DVT and whether QOL']","['PCDT with no PCDT', 'pharmacomechanical catheter-directed thrombolysis', 'pharmacomechanical catheter-directed thrombolysis (PCDT', 'PCDT']","['QOL scores', 'disease-specific QOL', 'Quality of life', 'VEINES-QOL change scores', 'Quality of Life/Symptoms (VEINES-QOL/Sym) disease-specific QOL measure and the 36-Item Short Form Health Survey (SF-36) physical component summary (PCS) and mental component summary general QOL measures', 'SF-36 PCS change scores', 'QOL']","[{'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C0149871', 'cui_str': 'Deep Vein Thrombosis'}, {'cui': 'C0015811', 'cui_str': 'Femur'}, {'cui': 'C0205214', 'cui_str': 'Common (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0020888', 'cui_str': 'Iliac Vein'}, {'cui': 'C0205107', 'cui_str': 'Proximal (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0444504', 'cui_str': 'Mean (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0001792', 'cui_str': 'Elderly'}, {'cui': 'C0439234', 'cui_str': 'year (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0086582', 'cui_str': 'Males'}]","[{'cui': 'C0085590', 'cui_str': 'Catheters'}, {'cui': 'C0439851', 'cui_str': 'Direct (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0520997', 'cui_str': 'Thrombolysis, function (observable entity)'}]","[{'cui': 'C0449820', 'cui_str': 'Scores (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0012634', 'cui_str': 'Disease'}, {'cui': 'C0205369', 'cui_str': 'Specified'}, {'cui': 'C0034380'}, {'cui': 'C0392747', 'cui_str': 'Altered (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0683368', 'cui_str': 'symptoms'}, {'cui': 'C1879489', 'cui_str': 'Measures (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C1806781', 'cui_str': 'Short (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0376315', 'cui_str': 'Form'}, {'cui': 'C0018762', 'cui_str': 'Health Surveys'}, {'cui': 'C0205485', 'cui_str': 'Physical (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0449432', 'cui_str': 'Component (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0205246', 'cui_str': 'Generalized (qualifier value)'}]",691.0,0.105402,"Among patients with proximal DVT, PCDT leads to greater improvement in disease-specific QOL than no PCDT at 1 month and 6 months but not later.","[{'ForeName': 'Susan R', 'Initials': 'SR', 'LastName': 'Kahn', 'Affiliation': 'Center for Clinical Epidemiology, Lady Davis Institute, Jewish General Hospital, Montreal, Quebec, Canada.

1713,22885319,Comparison of ramosetron and ondansetron for control of post-operative nausea and vomiting following laparoscopic cholecystectomy.,"BACKGROUND
Post-operative nausea and vomiting (PONV) is common. 5HT 3 receptor antagonists are commonly used drugs for its prevention. A study was designed to compare the efficacy and safety of ramosetron and ondansetron in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy (lap chole).
MATERIALS AND METHODS
A prospective randomized case controlled study was conducted at J. N. Medical College Hospital, Aligarh Muslim University, Aligarh, India, in patients who underwent lap chole following intravenous administration of ondansetron (4mg) or ramosetron (0.3mg) at the end of surgery, and efficacy as well as side effects of ondansetron and ramosetron was documented and compared.
RESULTS
One hundred and thirty adult females undergoing lap chole were studied - 65 patients in each of the two groups. In first 24 h after surgery, complete response (No PONV) was observed in 28 patients of the ondansetron group and in 32 patients of the ramosetron group (P>0.05). Complete response in the second 24 h after surgery was observed in 30 patients of the ondansetron group and in 45 patients of the ramosetron group (P<0.05). During the first and second 24 h, PONV requiring rescue antiemetic was significantly higher (P<0.05) in the ondansetron group as compared to the ramosetron group. Adverse drug effects in the post-operative period were observed in 11 and 8 patients in ondansetron and ramosetron groups respectively (P>0.05).

1714,22417252,Closure or medical therapy for cryptogenic stroke with patent foramen ovale.,"BACKGROUND
The prevalence of patent foramen ovale among patients with cryptogenic stroke is higher than that in the general population. Closure with a percutaneous device is often recommended in such patients, but it is not known whether this intervention reduces the risk of recurrent stroke.
METHODS
We conducted a multicenter, randomized, open-label trial of closure with a percutaneous device, as compared with medical therapy alone, in patients between 18 and 60 years of age who presented with a cryptogenic stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA) and had a patent foramen ovale. The primary end point was a composite of stroke or transient ischemic attack during 2 years of follow-up, death from any cause during the first 30 days, or death from neurologic causes between 31 days and 2 years.
RESULTS
A total of 909 patients were enrolled in the trial. The cumulative incidence (Kaplan-Meier estimate) of the primary end point was 5.5% in the closure group (447 patients) as compared with 6.8% in the medical-therapy group (462 patients) (adjusted hazard ratio, 0.78; 95% confidence interval, 0.45 to 1.35; P=0.37). The respective rates were 2.9% and 3.1% for stroke (P=0.79) and 3.1% and 4.1% for TIA (P=0.44). No deaths occurred by 30 days in either group, and there were no deaths from neurologic causes during the 2-year follow-up period. A cause other than paradoxical embolism was usually apparent in patients with recurrent neurologic events.

1715,31537259,Major Bleeding in Patients With Coronary or Peripheral Artery Disease Treated With Rivaroxaban Plus Aspirin.,"BACKGROUND
In patients with coronary or peripheral artery disease, the combination of rivaroxaban 2.5 mg twice daily and aspirin 100 mg once daily compared with aspirin 100 mg once daily reduced major adverse cardiovascular events and mortality and increased bleeding.
OBJECTIVES
This study sought to explore the effects of the combination of rivaroxaban and aspirin compared with aspirin on sites, timing, severity, and management of bleeding in the COMPASS (Cardiovascular Outcomes for People Using Anticoagulation Strategies) study.
METHODS
This study reports, by treatment group, the number and proportion of patients; hazard rate ratios for bleeding according to site and severity; the timing of bleeding using landmark analyses; and the number and proportion of patients who received blood products and other hemostatic treatments.
RESULTS
Of 27,395 patients enrolled (mean age 68 years, 22% women), 18,278 were randomized to the combination of rivaroxaban and aspirin or to aspirin alone and followed for a mean of 23 months. Compared with aspirin alone, the combination increased modified International Society on Thrombosis and Hemostasis major bleeding (288 of 9,152 [3.1%] vs. 170 of 9,126 [1.9%]), (HR: 1.70; 95% CI: 1.40 to 2.05; p < 0.001), International Society on Thrombosis and Hemostasis major bleeding (206 of 9,152 [2.3%] vs. 116 of 9,126 [1.3%]), (HR: 1.78; 95% CI: 1.41 to 2.23; p < 0.0001), and minor bleeding (838 of 9,152 [9.2%] vs. 503 of 9,126 [5.5%]), (HR: 1.70; 95% CI 1.52 to 1.90; p < 0.0001); the combination also increased the need for any red cell transfusion (87 of 9,152 [1.0%] vs. 44 of 9,126 [0.5%]), (HR: 1.97; 95% CI 1.37 to 2.83, p = 0.0002). The gastrointestinal (GI) tract was the most common site of increased major bleeding (140 of 9,152 [1.5%] vs. 65 of 9,126 [0.7%]), (HR: 2.15; 95% CI: 1.60 to 2.89; p < 0.001), and the increase in bleeding was predominantly in the first year after randomization. Approximately one-third of major GI bleeding was gastric or duodenal, one-third was colonic or rectal, and one-third was from an unknown GI site. The study investigators reported that approximately three-quarters of major bleeding episodes were of mild or moderate intensity. A similar proportion of patients in each treatment group who experienced major bleeding received platelets, clotting factors, or other hemostatic agents.
CONCLUSIONS
The combination of rivaroxaban and aspirin compared with aspirin alone increased major bleeding, mainly from the GI tract. Most excess bleeding occurred during the first year after randomization, was of mild or moderate intensity, and was managed with conventional supportive therapy.

1716,31395122,Off-Pump Versus On-Pump Bypass Surgery for Left Main Coronary Artery Disease.,"BACKGROUND
Concerns remain for a greater risk of incomplete revascularization and reduced survival with off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) surgery compared with on-pump surgery particularly in patients with left main disease and extensive underlying myocardial ischemia.
OBJECTIVES
This study sought to compare outcomes following off-pump versus on-pump surgery for left main disease by performing a post hoc analysis from the multicenter, randomized EXCEL (Evaluation of XIENCE versus Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery for Effectiveness of Left Main Revascularization) trial.
METHODS
The EXCEL trial was designed to compare percutaneous coronary intervention with everolimus-eluting stents versus CABG in patients with left main disease. CABG was performed with or without cardiopulmonary bypass (on-pump vs. off-pump surgery) according to the discretion of the operator. The 3-year outcomes in the off-pump and on-pump groups were compared using inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW) for treatment effect estimation.
RESULTS
Among 923 CABG patients, 652 and 271 patients underwent on-pump and off-pump surgery, respectively. Despite a similar extent of disease, off-pump surgery was associated with a lower rate of revascularization of the left circumflex coronary artery (84.1% vs. 90.0%; p = 0.01) and right coronary artery (31.1% vs. 40.6%; p = 0.007). After IPTW adjustment for baseline differences, off-pump surgery was associated with a significantly increased risk of 3-year all-cause death (8.8% vs. 4.5%; hazard ratio: 1.94; 95% confidence interval: 1.10 to 3.41; p = 0.02) and a nonsignificant difference in the risk for the composite endpoint of death, myocardial infarction, or stroke (11.8% vs. 9.2%; hazard ratio: 1.28; 95% confidence interval: 0.82 to 2.00; p = 0.28).

1717,31595845,Role of Ischemia Modified Albumin Serum Levels as an Oxidative Stress Marker in Children with Diabetic Ketoacidosis.,"AIM AND OBJECTIVE
Ischemia modified albumin (IMA) is a biomarker that has been introduced recently for use in the evaluation of oxidative stress. The aim of this study was to measure the ischemia modified albumin serum levels in pediatric patients with diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) during acidosis and after the patient recovered from acidosis and to compare these with the control group.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
Pediatric patients with Type I diabetes mellitus (T1DM) who were admitted to the pediatric intensive care unit with the diabetic ketoacidosis were assigned as the study group and healthy children who were admitted to the outpatient clinic and decided as healthy after clinic and laboratory evaluation were selected as the control group. IMA and adjusted IMA levels were evaluated in the blood samples from the control group and the study group when admitted first time to the intensive care unit during the acidosis period (DKA before treatment, DKA-BT), and after recovering from acidosis (DKA after treatment, DKA-AT).
RESULTS
A total of 24 pediatric patients with diabetic ketoacidosis and 30 healthy control children matching age and sex were included in the current study. The albumin levels in pediatric patients with T1DM during DKA-BT were higher than the albumin levels after acidosis (4.101±0.373, 3.854±0.369 g/dL, respectively) (p<0.05). However, there was no significant difference when these values were compared to the control group. Mean values of IMA and Adj-IMA were statistically higher in DKAAT compared to the control group (0.748±0.150 vs 0.591±0.099, p< 0.001; 0.708±0.125 vs 0.607±0.824, p< 0.001, respectively).

1718,32034789,Antibacterial effectiveness of calcium hydroxide alone or in combination with Ibuprofen and Ciprofloxacin in teeth with asymptomatic apical periodontitis: a randomized controlled clinical study.,"AIM
To evaluate the antimicrobial effectiveness of Ca(OH) 2 paste combined with Ibuprofen or Ciprofloxacin in infected root canals of teeth with asymptomatic apical periodontitis.
METHODOLOGY
Forty-five patients were randomly divided into three groups using a web programme according to the medication selected: Ca(OH) 2 : 1 g Ca(OH) 2 powder with 1 mL propylene glycol, Ca(OH) 2 + Ibuprofen: 50 mg of Ibuprofen was added into 950 mg Ca(OH) 2 powder and mixed with 1 mL propylene glycol, Ca(OH) 2 + Ciprofloxacin: 50 mg of Ciprofloxacin was added into 950 mg Ca(OH) 2 powder and mixed with 1 mL propylene glycol. Root canal bacteriological samples were collected before root canal treatment (S1) and after chemo-mechanical procedures (S2). After root canal preparation, the intracanal medicaments were placed into the root canals to a level approximately 1 mm short of the working length using K-files and access cavities were filled temporarily. The participants were scheduled for a second visit 7 days later when the medication was removed mechanically, and after irrigation of the root canals, the final samples (S3) were collected. Samples were subjected to quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction to evaluate the numbers of total bacteria, Enterococcus faecalis and Streptococcus species. For intragroup analysis, a Friedman test was used to compare reduction of counts of total bacteria, Streptococci and E. faecalis amongst the three samples (S1, S2 and S3). The chi-square test was used to compare the number of root canals positive for bacteria in S1, S2 and S3 amongst the groups.
RESULTS
Intragroup analysis revealed a significant reduction in the number of intracanal bacterial cells from S1 to S2 and from S2 to S3 in all medication groups (P < 0.01). Although there was no significant difference amongst the groups when comparing quantitative S1 or S2 data, there were significantly lower bacterial counts in the Ca(OH) 2 + Ciprofloxacin group (0.49 × 10 2 ) than the pure Ca(OH) 2 (1.25 × 10 2 ) and Ca(OH) 2 + Ibuprofen groups (0.76 × 10 2 ) at S3. The percentage reduction from S1 to S3 and from S2 to S3 was significantly greater in the Ca(OH)2 + Ciprofloxacin than the pure Ca(OH)2 and Ca(OH)2 + Ibuprofen groups (P < 0.05). In the Ca(OH) 2 + Ciprofloxacin group, there were significantly fewer positive cases (8/15) than the pure Ca(OH) 2 (13/15) and Ca(OH) 2 + Ibuprofen (13/15) groups (P < 0.05).
CONCLUSION
The addition of Ciprofloxacin to Ca(OH) 2 provided further antibacterial effectiveness when used as an intracanal medicament in vivo during root canal treatment.",2020,"RESULTS

1720,31284175,The impact of psychostimulants on sustained attention over a 24-h period.,"The off-label use of psychostimulants is a growing trend in healthy adults with many turning to these medications to increase alertness, attentional focus, and to help them study. However, the empirical literature on the efficacy of these medications for cognitive enhancement is controversial and the longer-term impact of these drugs on health and cognitive processing has not been thoroughly examined. Specifically, sleep supports daytime alertness, vigilance, and sustained attention, yet stimulants significantly disrupt sleep. Here, using a double-blind, placebo-controlled, crossover design, we tested the impact morning administration of psychostimulants (dextroamphetamine; DEX) had on: (1) tests of attention 75-min and 12-h after drug ingestion, (2) nighttime sleep and (3) post-sleep attention in healthy, young adults. First, we found that repeated testing led to significant decreases in performance from baseline in the placebo condition, and that DEX, compared to placebo, prevented deterioration at the 75-min test, and selectively for visual field at the 12 h and 24 h tests. We also found that stimulants, compared to placebo, benefitted attentional processing 75-min post-drug but this did not persist to the delayed test 12-h after drug administration. Additionally, morning stimulant administration resulted in robust nighttime sleep disruptions, yet post-sleep sustained attention was equivalent in the stimulant and placebo conditions, indicating that the initial boost to performance dissipated at 24 h, but the decrease was not significantly worse than placebo. Together, these results suggest that stimulant medications, commonly used off-label for cognitive enhancement may prevent deterioration of sustained attention brought on by repeated within-day testing. Additionally, these medications substantially disrupt nighttime sleep; which while coming at little cost to next-day attentional processing, may have steeper consequences for other cognitive domains.",2019,"We also found that stimulants, compared to placebo, benefitted attentional processing 75-min post-drug","['healthy, young adults', 'healthy adults']","['attention 75-min and 12-h after drug ingestion, (2) nighttime sleep and (3) post-sleep attention', 'psychostimulants (dextroamphetamine; DEX', 'placebo', 'DEX']","['robust nighttime sleep disruptions', 'nighttime sleep', 'sleep supports daytime alertness, vigilance, and sustained attention']","[{'cui': 'C0238598', 'cui_str': 'Young Adult'}, {'cui': 'C0686750', 'cui_str': 'Well adult (finding)'}]","[{'cui': 'C0004268', 'cui_str': 'Attention'}, {'cui': 'C0439232', 'cui_str': 'min (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0013227', 'cui_str': 'Pharmaceuticals'}, {'cui': 'C0232478', 'cui_str': 'Ingestion'}, {'cui': 'C0424522', 'cui_str': 'Asleep (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C0687676', 'cui_str': 'After values (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0304403', 'cui_str': 'Psychostimulant'}, {'cui': 'C0011812', 'cui_str': 'dexamfetamine'}, {'cui': 'C1696465', 'cui_str': 'placebo'}]","[{'cui': 'C0424522', 'cui_str': 'Asleep (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C0332453', 'cui_str': 'Disruption (morphologic abnormality)'}, {'cui': 'C0344211', 'cui_str': 'Supportive care'}, {'cui': 'C0332169', 'cui_str': 'Daytime (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0589099', 'cui_str': 'Sustained attention, function (observable entity)'}]",,0.163138,"We also found that stimulants, compared to placebo, benefitted attentional processing 75-min post-drug","[{'ForeName': 'Lauren N', 'Initials': 'LN', 'LastName': 'Whitehurst', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Psychiatry, University of California, San Francisco, CA, USA.

1722,31477545,"Fixed-combination, low-dose, triple-pill antihypertensive medication versus usual care in patients with mild-to-moderate hypertension in Sri Lanka: a within-trial and modelled economic evaluation of the TRIUMPH trial.","BACKGROUND
Elevated blood pressure incurs a major health and economic burden, particularly in low-income and middle-income countries. The Triple Pill versus Usual Care Management for Patients with Mild-to-Moderate Hypertension (TRIUMPH) trial showed a greater reduction in blood pressure in patients using fixed-combination, low-dose, triple-pill antihypertensive therapy (consisting of amlodipine, telmisartan, and chlorthalidone) than in those receiving usual care in Sri Lanka. We aimed to assess the cost-effectiveness of the triple-pill strategy.
METHODS
We did a within-trial (6-month) and modelled (10-year) economic evaluation of the TRIUMPH trial, using the health system perspective. Health-care costs, reported in 2017 US dollars, were determined from trial records and published literature. A discrete-time simulation model was developed, extrapolating trial findings of reduced systolic blood pressure to 10-year health-care costs, cardiovascular disease events, and mortality. The primary outcomes were the proportion of people reaching blood pressure targets (at 6 months from baseline) and disability-adjusted life-years (DALYs) averted (at 10 years from baseline). Incremental cost-effectiveness ratios were calculated to estimate the cost per additional participant achieving target blood pressure at 6 months and cost per DALY averted over 10 years.
FINDINGS
The triple-pill strategy, compared with usual care, cost an additional US$9·63 (95% CI 5·29 to 13·97) per person in the within-trial analysis and $347·75 (285·55 to 412·54) per person in the modelled analysis. Incremental cost-effectiveness ratios were estimated at $7·93 (95% CI 6·59 to 11·84) per participant reaching blood pressure targets at 6 months and $2842·79 (-28·67 to 5714·24) per DALY averted over a 10-year period.
INTERPRETATION
Compared with usual care, the triple-pill strategy is cost-effective for patients with mild-to-moderate hypertension. Scaled up investment in the triple pill for hypertension management in Sri Lanka should be supported to address the high population burden of cardiovascular disease.

1723,31304536,MSG-10: a Phase 2 study of oral ibrexafungerp (SCY-078) following initial echinocandin therapy in non-neutropenic patients with invasive candidiasis.,"OBJECTIVES
To evaluate the safety and efficacy of two dosing regimens of oral ibrexafungerp (formerly SCY-078), a novel orally bioavailable β-glucan synthase inhibitor, in subjects with invasive candidiasis versus the standard of care (SOC) and to identify the dose to achieve target exposure (15.4 μM·h) in >80% of the intended population.
METHODS
In a multinational, open-label study, patients with documented invasive candidiasis were randomized to receive step-down therapy to one of three treatment arms: two dosing regimens of novel oral ibrexafungerp or the SOC treatment following initial echinocandin therapy. Plasma samples were collected to evaluate exposure by population pharmacokinetic (PK) modelling. Safety was assessed throughout the study and global response at the end of treatment.
RESULTS
Out of 27 subjects enrolled, 7 received ibrexafungerp 500 mg, 7 received ibrexafungerp 750 mg and 8 received the SOC. Five did not meet criteria for randomization. Population PK analysis indicated that an ibrexafungerp 750 mg regimen is predicted to achieve the target exposure in ∼85% of the population. The rate of adverse events was similar among patients receiving ibrexafungerp or fluconazole. Similar favourable response rates were reported among all groups: 86% (n = 6) in the ibrexafungerp 750 mg versus 71% (n = 5) in both the fluconazole and ibrexafungerp 500 mg treatment arms. The one subject treated with continued micafungin had a favourable global response.

1724,30838382,Cost-utility analysis of minimally invasive surgery for lung cancer: a randomized controlled trial.,"OBJECTIVES
Minimally invasive video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) was first introduced in the early 1990s. For decades, numerous non-randomized studies demonstrated advantages of VATS over thoracotomy with lower morbidity and shorter hospital stay, but only recently did a randomized trial document that VATS results in lower pain scores and better quality of life. Opposing arguments for VATS have always been increased costs and concerns about oncological adequacy. In this paper, we aim to investigate the cost-effectiveness of VATS.
METHODS
The study was designed as a cost-utility analysis of the first 12 months following surgery and was performed together with a clinical randomized controlled trial of VATS versus thoracotomy for lobectomy of stage 1 lung cancer during a 6-year period (2008-2014). All health-related expenses were retrieved from a national database (Statistics Denmark) including hospital readmissions, outpatient clinic visits, prescription medication costs, consultations with general practitioners, specialists, physiotherapists, psychologists and chiropractors.
RESULTS
One hundred and three VATS patients and 103 thoracotomy patients were randomized. Mean costs per patient operated by VATS were 103 108 Danish Kroner (Dkr) (€13 818) and 134 945 Dkr (€18 085) by thoracotomy, making the costs for VATS 31 837 Dkr (€4267) lower than thoracotomy (P < 0.001). The difference in quality-adjusted life years gained over 52 weeks of follow-up was 0.021 (P = 0.048, 95% confidence interval -0.04 to -0.00015) in favour of VATS. The median duration of the surgical procedure was shorter after thoracotomy (79 vs 100 min; P < 0.001). The mean length of hospitalization was shorter following VATS (4.8 vs 6.7 days; P = 0.027). The use of other resources was not significantly different between groups. The costs of resources were lower in the VATS group. This difference was primarily due to reduced costs of readmissions (VATS 29 247 Dkr vs thoracotomy 51 734 Dkr; P < 0.001) and costs of outpatient visits (VATS 51 412 Dkr vs thoracotomy 61 575 Dkr; P = 0.012).
CONCLUSIONS
VATS is a cost-effective alternative to thoracotomy following lobectomy for stage 1 lung cancer. Economical outcomes as measured by quality-adjusted life years were significantly better and overall costs were lower for VATS.

1725,31537372,A social empowerment intervention to prevent intimate partner violence against women in a microfinance scheme in Tanzania: findings from the MAISHA cluster randomised controlled trial.,"BACKGROUND
Globally, about 30% of women have experienced physical or sexual violence, or both, from an intimate partner during their lifetime. Associations between poverty and women's increased risk of intimate partner violence have been observed. We therefore aimed to assess the effect of a violence prevention intervention delivered to women participating in a group-based microfinance scheme in Tanzania.
METHODS
We did a cluster randomised controlled trial among women taking part in a microfinance loan scheme in Mwanza city, Tanzania. A microfinance loan group was only enrolled if at least 70% of members consented. We randomly assigned the microfinance groups in blocks of six to receive either the intervention (ie, the intervention arm) or be wait-listed for the intervention after the trial (ie, the control arm). Women in both arms of the trial met weekly for loan repayments. Only those in the intervention arm participated in the ten-session MAISHA intervention that aims to empower women and prevent intimate partner violence. Given the nature of the intervention, it was not possible to mask participants or the research team. The primary outcome was a composite of reported past-year physical or sexual intimate partner violence, or both. Secondary outcome measures were past-year physical, sexual, and emotional intimate partner violence; acceptability and tolerance of intimate partner violence; and attitudes and beliefs related to intimate partner violence. These outcomes were assessed 24 months after the intervention. An intention-to-treat analysis was done, adjusting for age, education, and baseline measure of the respective outcome. The study is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, number NCT02592252.
FINDINGS
Between September, 2014, and June, 2015, 66 (65%) of 101 microfinance groups approached in the study area met the trial eligibility criteria and were enrolled, of which 33 (n=544 women) were allocated to the intervention arm and 33 (n=505 women) to the control arm. Overall, 485 (89%) of 544 women in the intervention arm and 434 (86%) of 505 in the control arm completed the outcomes assessment. Among the intervention arm, 112 (23%) of 485 women reported past-year physical or sexual intimate partner violence, or both, compared with 119 (27%) of 434 in the control arm (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] 0·69, 95% CI 0·47-1·01; p=0·056). Women in the intervention arm were less likely to report physical intimate partner violence (aOR 0·64, 95% CI 0·41-0·99; p=0·043) and were less likely to express attitudes accepting of intimate partner violence (0·45, 0·34-0·61; p<0·0001) or beliefs that intimate partner violence is a private matter (0·51, 0·32-0·81; p=0·005) or should be tolerated (0·68, 0·45-1·01; p=0·055). There was no evidence of an effect on reported sexual or emotional intimate partner violence. There were no reports that participation in the trial had led to new episodes of violence or worsening of ongoing violence and abuse.
INTERPRETATION
Reported physical or sexual intimate partner violence, or both, was reduced among women who participated in the intervention arm, although the effect was greater for physical intimate partner violence, suggesting that intimate partner violence is preventable in high-risk settings such as Tanzania.

1726,31158720,Examining raphe-amygdala structural connectivity as a biological predictor of SSRI response.,"BACKGROUND
Our lab has previously found that structural integrity in tracts from the raphe nucleus (RN) to the amygdala, measured by fractional anisotropy (FA), predicts remission to selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) in major depressive disorder (MDD). This could potentially serve as a biomarker for remission that can guide clinical decision-making. To enhance repeatability and reproducibility, we replicated our study in a larger, more representative multi-site sample.
METHODS
64 direction DTI was collected in 144 medication-free patients with MDD from the Establishing Moderators and Biosignatures of Antidepressant Response for Clinical Care (EMBARC) study. We performed probabilistic tractography between the RN and bilateral amygdala and hippocampus and calculated weighted FA in these tracts. Patients were treated with either sertraline or placebo, and their change in Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HDRS) score reported. Pretreatment weighted FA was compared between remitters and nonremitters, and correlation between FA and percent change in HDRS score was assessed. Exploratory moderator and voxel analyses were also performed.
RESULTS
Contrary to our hypotheses, FA was greater in nonremitters than in remitters in RN-left and right amygdala tracts (p = 0.02 and 0.01, respectively). Pretreatment FA between the raphe and left amygdala correlated with greater, not reduced, HDRS (r = 0.18, p = 0.04). This finding was found to be greater in the placebo group. Moderator and voxel analyses yielded no significant findings.
CONCLUSIONS
We found greater FA in nonremitters between the RN and amygdala than in remitters, and a correlation between FA and symptom worsening, particularly with placebo. These findings may help reveal more about the nature of MDD, as well as guide research methods involving placebo response.",2019,"We found greater FA in nonremitters between the RN and amygdala than in remitters, and a correlation between FA and symptom worsening, particularly with placebo.",['64 direction DTI was collected in 144 medication-free patients with MDD from the Establishing Moderators and Biosignatures of Antidepressant Response for Clinical Care'],"['placebo', 'sertraline or placebo']","['Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HDRS) score', 'HDRS score', 'HDRS']","[{'cui': 'C0439755', 'cui_str': 'Directions (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C0443211', 'cui_str': 'Established (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0003289', 'cui_str': 'Antidepressant Drugs'}, {'cui': 'C0205210', 'cui_str': 'Clinical (qualifier value)'}]","[{'cui': 'C1696465', 'cui_str': 'placebo'}, {'cui': 'C0074393', 'cui_str': 'Sertraline'}]","[{'cui': 'C0011581', 'cui_str': 'Neurosis, Depressive'}, {'cui': 'C0222045'}, {'cui': 'C0449820', 'cui_str': 'Scores (qualifier value)'}]",64.0,0.0464468,"We found greater FA in nonremitters between the RN and amygdala than in remitters, and a correlation between FA and symptom worsening, particularly with placebo.","[{'ForeName': 'Rajapillai L I', 'Initials': 'RLI', 'LastName': 'Pillai', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Psychiatry, Stony Brook University, Stony Brook, NY, United States.'}, {'ForeName': 'Chuan', 'Initials': 'C', 'LastName': 'Huang', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Psychiatry, Stony Brook University, Stony Brook, NY, United States; Department of Radiology, Stony Brook University, Stony Brook, NY, United States.

1727,31502637,Usefulness of myocardial work measurement in the assessment of left ventricular systolic reserve response to spironolactone in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction.,"AIMS
Improvement in left ventricular (LV) systolic reserve, including exertional increase in global longitudinal strain (GLS), may contribute to the clinical benefit from therapeutic interventions in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). However, GLS is an afterload-dependent parameter, and its measurements may not adequately reflect myocardial contractility recruitment with exercise. The estimation of myocardial work (MW) allows correction of GLS for changing afterload. We sought to investigate the associations of GLS and MW parameters with the response of exercise capacity to spironolactone in HFpEF.
METHODS AND RESULTS
We analysed 114 patients (67 ± 8 years) participating in the STRUCTURE study (57 randomized to spironolactone and 57 to placebo). Resting and immediately post-exercise echocardiograms were performed at baseline and at 6-month follow-up. The following indices of MW were assessed: global work index (GWI), global constructive work (GCW), global wasted work, and global work efficiency. The amelioration of exercise intolerance at follow-up in the spironolactone group was accompanied by a significant improvement in exertional increase in GCW (P = 0.002) but not in GLS and other MW parameters. Increase in exercise capacity at 6 months was independently correlated with change in exertional increase in GCW from baseline to follow-up (β = 0.24; P = 0.009) but not with GLS (P = 0.14); however, no significant interaction with the use of spironolactone on peak VO2 was found (P = 0.97).
CONCLUSION
GCW as a measure of LV contractile response to exertion is a better determinant of exercise capacity in HFpEF than GLS. Improvement in functional capacity during follow-up is associated with improvement in exertional increment of GCW.",2019,"Increase in exercise capacity at 6 months was independently correlated with change in exertional increase in GCW from baseline to follow-up (β = 0.24; P = 0.009) but not with GLS (P = 0.14); however, no significant interaction with the use of spironolactone on peak VO2 was found (P = 0.97).

Design: A pilot double-blind randomized placebo-controlled trial. Settings/Location: Psychiatric Clinic of Imam Hossein Hospital, Tehran, Iran. Subjects: Participants were 16-15 years of age with mild and moderate depression or OCD having insomnia. Interventions: This pilot study was conducted on patients with insomnia divided into two groups with depression (40 patients) or OCD (43 patients). Each group randomly assigned into two arms with the same conditions at baseline. The intervention arm daily received 5 mL V. odorata syrup every 12 h for 4 weeks, and the control arm received 5 mL placebo syrup every 12 h for 4 weeks. None of the participants was deprived of their routine treatment for depression or OCD. Outcome measures: The scores of insomnia symptoms were evaluated using total score of the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) and the scores of its components, the depression score using the final Beck depression inventory-II (BDI-II) score, and OCD score using the Yale-Brown Obsessive-Compulsive Scale (YBOCS). Results: The total PSQI score was found to be improved significantly in the intervention arms with depression or OCD ( p < 0.001) compared with the corresponding control arms. Significant improvements were also observed in the final mean difference of BDI-II ( p = 0.009) and YBOCS ( p = 0.001) scores in the intervention arms.

1729,20689928,Patients' prediction of extubation success.,"PURPOSE
The spontaneous breathing trial (SBT)-relying on objective criteria assessed by the clinician-is the major diagnostic tool to determine if patients can be successfully extubated. However, little is known regarding the patient's subjective perception of autonomous breathing.
METHODS
We performed a prospective observational study in 211 mechanically ventilated adult patients successfully completing a SBT. Patients were randomly assigned to be interviewed during this trial regarding their prediction of extubation success. We compared post-extubation outcomes in three patient groups: patients confident (confidents; n = 115) or not (non-confidents; n = 38) of their extubation success and patients not subjected to interview (control group; n = 58).
RESULTS
Extubation success was more frequent in confidents than in non-confidents (90 vs. 45%; p < 0.001/positive likelihood ratio = 2.00) or in the control group (90 vs. 78%; p = 0.04). On the contrary, extubation failure was more common in non-confidents than in confidents (55 vs. 10%; p < 0.001/negative likelihood ratio = 0.19). Logistic regression analysis showed that extubation success was associated with patient's prediction [OR (95% CI): 9.2 (3.74-22.42) for confidents vs.non-confidents] as well as to age [0.72 (0.66-0.78) for age 75 vs. 65 and 1.31 (1.28-1.51) for age 55 vs. 65].

1731,31522033,Phase II randomised discontinuation trial of brivanib in patients with advanced solid tumours.,"BACKGROUND
Brivanib is a selective inhibitor of vascular endothelial growth factor and fibroblast growth factor (FGF) signalling. We performed a phase II randomised discontinuation trial of brivanib in 7 tumour types (soft-tissue sarcomas [STS], ovarian cancer, breast cancer, pancreatic cancer, non-small-cell lung cancer [NSCLC], gastric/esophageal cancer and transitional cell carcinoma [TCC]).
PATIENTS AND METHODS
During a 12-week open-label lead-in period, patients received brivanib 800 mg daily and were evaluated for FGF2 status by immunohistochemistry. Patients with stable disease at week 12 were randomised to brivanib or placebo. A study steering committee evaluated week 12 response to determine if enrolment in a tumour type would continue. The primary objective was progression-free survival (PFS) for brivanib versus placebo in patients with FGF2-positive tumours.
RESULTS
A total of 595 patients were treated, and stable disease was observed at the week 12 randomisation point in all tumour types. Closure decisions were made for breast cancer, pancreatic cancer, NSCLC, gastric cancer and TCC. Criteria for expansion were met for STS and ovarian cancer. In 53 randomised patients with STS and FGF2-positive tumours, the median PFS was 2.8 months for brivanib and 1.4 months for placebo (hazard ratio [HR]: 0.58, p = 0.08). For all randomised patients with sarcomas, the median PFS was 2.8 months (95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.4-4.0) for those treated with brivanib compared with 1.4 months (95% CI: 1.3-1.6) for placebo (HR = 0.64, 95% CI: 0.38-1.07; p = 0.09). In the 36 randomised patients with ovarian cancer and FGF2-positive tumours, the median PFS was 4.0 (95% CI: 2.6-4.2) months for brivanib and 2.0 months (95% CI: 1.2-2.7) for placebo (HR: 0.56, 95% CI: 0.26-1.22). For all randomised patients with ovarian cancer, the median PFS in those randomised to brivanib was 4.0 months (95% CI: 2.6-4.2) and was 2.0 months (95% CI: 1.2-2.7) in those randomised to placebo (HR = 0.54, 95% CI: 0.25-1.17; p = 0.11).
CONCLUSION

1732,20687619,Inactivated split-virion seasonal influenza vaccine (Fluarix): a review of its use in the prevention of seasonal influenza in adults and the elderly.,"Fluarix is a trivalent, inactivated, split-virion influenza vaccine containing 15 microg haemagglutinin from each of the three influenza virus strains (including an H1N1 influenza A virus subtype, an H3N2 influenza A virus subtype and an influenza B virus) that are expected to be circulating in the up-coming influenza season. Fluarix is highly immunogenic in healthy adults and elderly, and exceeds the criteria that make it acceptable for licensure in various regions (including the US and Europe). In a large, phase III, placebo-controlled, double-blind trial conducted in the US (2004/2005) in subjects aged 18-64 years, postvaccination seroconversion rates against the H1N1, H3N2 and B antigens were 60-78% and respective postvaccination seroprotection rates were 97-99% in Fluarix recipients. Another phase III trial conducted in the US (2005/2006) established the noninferiority of Fluarix versus another trivalent inactivated influenza virus vaccine in subjects aged >or=18 years, including a subgroup of elderly subjects. In annual European registration trials, Fluarix has consistently exceeded the immunogenicity criteria set by the EU Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use for adults and the elderly. Fluarix demonstrated immunogenicity in small, open-label studies in at-risk subjects. During a year when the vaccine was well matched to the circulating strain, Fluarix demonstrated efficacy against culture-confirmed influenza A and/or B in a placebo-controlled trial in adults aged 18-64 years. In addition, Fluarix vaccination of pregnant women demonstrated efficacy in reducing the rate of laboratory-confirmed influenza in the infants and reducing febrile respiratory illnesses in the mothers and their new-born infants in a randomized trial. Fluarix was generally well tolerated in adults and the elderly in well designed clinical trials and in the annual European registration trials, with most local and general adverse events being transient and mild to moderate in intensity. The most common adverse reactions in recipients of Fluarix were pain, redness or swelling at the injection site, muscle aches, fatigue, headache and arthralgia. In conclusion, Fluarix is an important means of decreasing the impact of seasonal influenza viruses on adults and the elderly.",2010,"Fluarix was generally well tolerated in adults and the elderly in well designed clinical trials and in the annual European registration trials, with most local and general adverse events being transient and mild to moderate in intensity.","['subjects aged >or=18 years, including a subgroup of elderly subjects', 'pregnant women', 'adults aged 18-64 years', 'adults and the elderly', 'healthy adults and elderly']","['Fluarix versus another trivalent inactivated influenza virus vaccine', 'Fluarix', 'placebo', 'Inactivated split-virion seasonal influenza vaccine (Fluarix']","['postvaccination seroconversion rates against the H1N1, H3N2 and B antigens', 'febrile respiratory illnesses', 'postvaccination seroprotection rates', 'rate of laboratory-confirmed influenza', 'pain, redness or swelling at the injection site, muscle aches, fatigue, headache and arthralgia']","[{'cui': 'C0439234', 'cui_str': 'year (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0332257', 'cui_str': 'Including (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0001792', 'cui_str': 'Elderly'}, {'cui': 'C0033011', 'cui_str': 'Pregnant Women'}, {'cui': 'C0001675', 'cui_str': 'Adult'}, {'cui': 'C0686750', 'cui_str': 'Well adult (finding)'}]","[{'cui': 'C0591524', 'cui_str': 'fluarix'}, {'cui': 'C0021403', 'cui_str': 'Influenza Vaccines'}, {'cui': 'C1696465', 'cui_str': 'placebo'}, {'cui': 'C0042760', 'cui_str': 'Viral Particles'}, {'cui': 'C0439601', 'cui_str': 'Seasonal course (qualifier value)'}]","[{'cui': 'C4042908', 'cui_str': 'Seroconversion'}, {'cui': 'C0580264', 'cui_str': 'H1N1'}, {'cui': 'C0580267', 'cui_str': 'H3N2'}, {'cui': 'C0368721', 'cui_str': 'Blood group antigen B (substance)'}, {'cui': 'C0015967', 'cui_str': 'Hyperthermia'}, {'cui': 'C0221423', 'cui_str': 'Illness (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C0022877', 'cui_str': 'Laboratory'}, {'cui': 'C1456348', 'cui_str': 'Confirm'}, {'cui': 'C0021400', 'cui_str': 'Influenza, Human'}, {'cui': 'C0030193', 'cui_str': 'Pain'}, {'cui': 'C0332575', 'cui_str': 'Red color (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C0038999', 'cui_str': 'Bulging (morphologic abnormality)'}, {'cui': 'C0221208', 'cui_str': 'Injection site (morphologic abnormality)'}, {'cui': 'C0231528', 'cui_str': 'Muscle Pain'}, {'cui': 'C0015672', 'cui_str': 'Fatigue'}, {'cui': 'C0018681', 'cui_str': 'Cephalodynia'}, {'cui': 'C0003862', 'cui_str': 'Joint Pain'}]",,0.0378655,"Fluarix was generally well tolerated in adults and the elderly in well designed clinical trials and in the annual European registration trials, with most local and general adverse events being transient and mild to moderate in intensity.","[{'ForeName': 'Monique P', 'Initials': 'MP', 'LastName': 'Curran', 'Affiliation': 'Adis, a Wolters Kluwer Business, Mairangi Bay, North Shore, Auckland, New Zealand. demail@adis.co.nz'}, {'ForeName': 'Isabel', 'Initials': 'I', 'LastName': 'Leroux-Roels', 'Affiliation': ''}]",Drugs,['10.2165/11205020-000000000-00000']
1733,31514107,Can radiomics help to predict skeletal muscle response to chemotherapy in stage IV non-small cell lung cancer?,"BACKGROUND
Muscle depletion negatively impacts treatment efficacy and survival rates in cancer. Prevention and timely treatment of muscle loss require prediction of patients at risk. We aimed to investigate the potential of skeletal muscle radiomic features to predict future muscle loss.
METHODS
A total of 116 patients with stage IV non-small cell lung cancer included in a randomised controlled trial (NCT01171170) studying the effect of nitroglycerin added to paclitaxel-carboplatin-bevacizumab were enrolled. In this post hoc analysis, muscle cross-sectional area and radiomic features were extracted from computed tomography images obtained before initiation of chemotherapy and shortly after administration of the second cycle. For internal cross-validation, the cohort was randomly split in a training set and validation set 100 times. We used least absolute shrinkage and selection operator method to select features that were most significantly associated with muscle loss and an area under the curve (AUC) for model performance.
RESULTS
Sixty-nine patients (59%) exhibited loss of skeletal muscle. One hundred ninety-three features were used to construct a prediction model for muscle loss. The average AUC was 0.49 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.36, 0.62). Differences in intensity and texture radiomic features over time were seen between patients with and without muscle loss.
CONCLUSIONS
The present study shows that skeletal muscle radiomics did not predict future muscle loss during chemotherapy in non-small cell lung cancer. Differences in radiomic features over time might reflect myosteatosis. Future imaging analysis combined with muscle tissue analysis in patients and in experimental models is needed to unravel the biological processes linked to the radiomic features.",2019,"The average AUC was 0.49 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.36, 0.62).","['patients at risk', '116 patients with stage IV non-small cell lung cancer', 'cancer', 'One hundred ninety-three features']",['nitroglycerin added to paclitaxel-carboplatin-bevacizumab'],"['muscle loss and an area under the curve (AUC', 'average AUC', 'loss of skeletal muscle', 'intensity and texture radiomic features']","[{'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C1444641', 'cui_str': 'At risk'}, {'cui': 'C4517541', 'cui_str': '116 (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0441772', 'cui_str': 'Stage level 4 (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0007131', 'cui_str': 'Nonsmall Cell Lung Cancer'}, {'cui': 'C1306459', 'cui_str': 'Primary malignant neoplasm'}, {'cui': 'C1704407', 'cui_str': '100 (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C3816959', 'cui_str': 'Ninety'}]","[{'cui': 'C0017887', 'cui_str': 'glyceryl trinitrate'}, {'cui': 'C1720086', 'cui_str': 'Add - dosing instruction fragment'}, {'cui': 'C0144576', 'cui_str': 'Paclitaxel'}, {'cui': 'C0079083', 'cui_str': 'Carboplatin'}, {'cui': 'C0796392', 'cui_str': 'bevacizumab'}]","[{'cui': 'C0026845', 'cui_str': 'Muscle Tissue'}, {'cui': 'C0376690', 'cui_str': 'AUC'}, {'cui': 'C0242692', 'cui_str': 'Muscle, Voluntary'}, {'cui': 'C4049786', 'cui_str': 'Intensities'}, {'cui': 'C0449582', 'cui_str': 'With texture (attribute)'}]",193.0,0.130463,"The average AUC was 0.49 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.36, 0.62).","[{'ForeName': 'E E C', 'Initials': 'EEC', 'LastName': 'de Jong', 'Affiliation': 'The D-Lab: Decision Support for Precision Medicine, GROW - School for Oncology and Developmental Biology, Maastricht University Medical Centre, Maastricht, the Netherlands.'}, {'ForeName': 'K J C', 'Initials': 'KJC', 'LastName': 'Sanders', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Respiratory Medicine, NUTRIM School of Nutrition and Translational Research in Metabolism, Maastricht University Medical Centre, Maastricht, the Netherlands.'}, {'ForeName': 'T M', 'Initials': 'TM', 'LastName': 'Deist', 'Affiliation': 'The D-Lab: Decision Support for Precision Medicine, GROW - School for Oncology and Developmental Biology, Maastricht University Medical Centre, Maastricht, the Netherlands.'}, {'ForeName': 'W', 'Initials': 'W', 'LastName': 'van Elmpt', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Radiation Oncology (MAASTRO Clinic), GROW - School for Oncology and Developmental Biology, Maastricht University Medical Centre, Maastricht, the Netherlands.'}, {'ForeName': 'A', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Jochems', 'Affiliation': 'The D-Lab: Decision Support for Precision Medicine, GROW - School for Oncology and Developmental Biology, Maastricht University Medical Centre, Maastricht, the Netherlands.'}, {'ForeName': 'J E', 'Initials': 'JE', 'LastName': 'van Timmeren', 'Affiliation': 'The D-Lab: Decision Support for Precision Medicine, GROW - School for Oncology and Developmental Biology, Maastricht University Medical Centre, Maastricht, the Netherlands.'}, {'ForeName': 'R T H', 'Initials': 'RTH', 'LastName': 'Leijenaar', 'Affiliation': 'The D-Lab: Decision Support for Precision Medicine, GROW - School for Oncology and Developmental Biology, Maastricht University Medical Centre, Maastricht, the Netherlands.'}, {'ForeName': 'J H R J', 'Initials': 'JHRJ', 'LastName': 'Degens', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Respiratory Medicine, NUTRIM School of Nutrition and Translational Research in Metabolism, Maastricht University Medical Centre, Maastricht, the Netherlands.'}, {'ForeName': 'A M W J', 'Initials': 'AMWJ', 'LastName': 'Schols', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Respiratory Medicine, NUTRIM School of Nutrition and Translational Research in Metabolism, Maastricht University Medical Centre, Maastricht, the Netherlands.'}, {'ForeName': 'A-M C', 'Initials': 'AC', 'LastName': 'Dingemans', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Respiratory Medicine, GROW - School for Oncology and Developmental Biology, Maastricht University Medical Centre, Maastricht, the Netherlands.'}, {'ForeName': 'P', 'Initials': 'P', 'LastName': 'Lambin', 'Affiliation': 'The D-Lab: Decision Support for Precision Medicine, GROW - School for Oncology and Developmental Biology, Maastricht University Medical Centre, Maastricht, the Netherlands.

1735,32066548,The Role of Mobile Phone Camera Recordings in the Diagnosis of Meniere's Disease and Pathophysiological Implications.,"OBJECTIVES
This study aimed to understand if videos of the patients' nystagmus recorded by themselves during the attacks can help in the diagnosis of Meniere's disease (MD).
MATERIALS AND METHODS
Sixty patients (age range 32-78 years) who had vestibular attacks and hearing complaints admitted to Çukurova University Hospital Otolaryngology Department and a private office between September 2013 and January 2017 were included in this randomized clinical trial study. Two groups with 30 patients each were formed. The first group was asked to send eye-videos recorded during the attack, while the patients in the second group were followed with conventional methods. Twenty-six patients in the first group were able to send satisfactory eye movement videos; four patients were excluded due to repeated recording faults. Twenty-seven patients in the second group could be followed; three patients were lost to follow-up. The number of attacks and time needed to diagnose both groups were compared.
RESULTS
The video group could be diagnosed in a shorter period compared to the control group. The diagnosis was made within two attacks (38 days) in the video group and within four attacks (92 days) in the control group.
CONCLUSION

1736,30614741,Erenumab for episodic migraine prophylaxis.,"Introduction : This paper reviews placebo-controlled randomized double-blind studies with erenumab for the prevention of migraine. Erenumab is a fully human monoclonal antibody (mAb), which specifically blocks the calcitonin gene-related peptide (GGRP) receptor. Areas covered : This manuscript was based on articles written in English located on PubMed using the following search terms: episodic and chronic migraine, migraine prophylaxis and prevention, CGRP, CGRP receptor, CGRP receptor antagonist, erenumab, treatment failures, and trigeminal nerve. Expert commentary : The primary endpoints in Phase II and III preventive episodic migraine trials have been reached successfully, and so have multiple secondary endpoints. Monthly subcutaneous injections of either erenumab 70 mg or 140 mg reduced mean monthly migraine days (MMDs) after 3 and 6 months significantly greater than placebo when compared to baseline values with an onset of action within the first week. About 50% of subjects have at least a 50% reduction of MMDs. Several patient-reported outcome measures demonstrate improved quality of life with erenumab. This antibody also shows efficacy in a prior preventive treatment failure population. The tolerability of erenumab is good, which is reflected by low dropout rates in all erenumab clinical trials. Within the first year of treatment, no specific group or type of adverse events were observed.",2019,"Erenumab is a fully human monoclonal antibody (mAb), which specifically blocks the calcitonin gene-related peptide (GGRP) receptor.

1740,18580613,Early virological suppression with three-class antiretroviral therapy in HIV-infected African infants.,"OBJECTIVES
Infants infected with HIV-1 perinatally despite single-dose nevirapine progress rapidly. Data on treatment outcome in sub-Saharan African infants exposed to single-dose nevirapine are urgently required. This feasibility study addresses efficacy of infant antiretroviral therapy in this setting.
METHODS
HIV-infected infants in Durban, South Africa, received randomized immediate or deferred (when CD4 cell count reached <20%) four-drug antiretroviral therapy (zidovudine/lamivudine/nelfinavir/nevirapine). Genotyping for non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI) resistance was undertaken pre-antiretroviral therapy. Monthly follow-up to 1-year post-antiretroviral therapy included viral load, CD4 cell count and verbal/measured adherence monitoring.
RESULTS
All 63 infants were exposed to single-dose nevirapine. Twenty-one out of 51 (39%) infants with baseline genotyping results had NNRTI resistance (most frequently Y181C; 20%). Forty-three infants were randomized to immediate antiretroviral therapy (ART): three withdrew pre-antiretroviral therapy; 36 out of 40 completed 1-year of ART. Twenty infants received deferred ART: 17 reached CD4 cell counts less than 20% (median d99) and 13 out of 17 started antiretroviral therapy in year 1. Verbal and measured adherence was 99% and 95%, respectively. One-year post-ART, 49 out of 49 (100%) infants had a viral load less than 400 copies/ml; 46 out of 49 (94%) had viral load less than 50 copies/ml. Ten infants (20%) required second-line ART due to virological failure or tuberculosis treatment, therefore 39 out of 49 (80%) achieved viral load less than 400 copies/ml by intention-to-treat. Time to viral load less than 50 copies/ml correlated with maternal CD4 cell count (r = -0.42; P = 0.005) and infant pre-ART viral load (r = 0.64; P < 0.001). NNRTI mutations had no significant effect on virological suppression. Infants starting immediate compared with deferred ART had fewer illness episodes (P = 0.003), but no significant difference in virological suppression.
CONCLUSION
Excellent adherence and virological suppression are achievable in infants, despite high-frequency NNRTI mutations and rapid disease progression. Infants remain relatively neglected in roll-out programmes and ART provision must be expanded.",2008,"Infants starting immediate compared with deferred ART had fewer illness episodes (P = 0.003), but no significant difference in virological suppression.

1741,32119599,"Ten-Year Update of a Randomized, Prospective Trial of Conventional Fractionated Versus Moderate Hypofractionated Radiation Therapy for Localized Prostate Cancer.","PURPOSE
The previously published single institution randomized prospective trial failed to show superiority in the 5-year biochemical and/or clinical disease failure (BCDF) rate with moderate hypofractionated intensity-modulated radiation therapy (H-IMRT) versus conventionally fractionated IMRT (C-IMRT). We now present 10-year disease outcomes using updated risk groups and definitions of biochemical failure.
METHODS
Men with protocol-defined intermediate- and high-risk prostate adenocarcinoma were randomly assigned to receive C-IMRT (76 Gy in 38 fractions) or H-IMRT (70.2 Gy in 26 fractions). Men with high-risk disease were all prescribed 24 months of androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) and had lymph node irradiation. Men with intermediate risk were prescribed 4 months of ADT at the discretion of the treating physician. The primary endpoint was cumulative incidence of BCDF. We compared disease outcomes and overall mortality by treatment arm, with sensitivity analyses for National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) risk group adjustment.
RESULTS
Overall, 303 assessable men were randomly assigned to C-IMRT or H-IMRT. The median follow-up was 122.9 months. Per updated NCCN risk classification, there were 28 patients (9.2%) with low-risk, 189 (62.4%) with intermediate-risk, and 86 (28.4%) with high-risk prostate cancer. The arms were equally balanced for clinicopathologic factors, except that there were more black patients in the C-IMRT arm (17.8% v 7.3%; P = .02). There was no difference in ADT use ( P = .56). The 10-year cumulative incidence of BCDF was 25.9% in the C-IMRT arm and was 30.6% in the H-IMRT arm (hazard ratio, 1.31; 95% CI, 0.82 to 2.11). The two arms also had similar cumulative 10-year rates of biochemical failure, prostate cancer-specific mortality, and overall mortality; however, the 10-year cumulative incidence of distant metastases was higher in the H-IMRT arm (rate difference, 7.8%; 95% CI, 0.7% to 15.1%).

1742,19584487,The effect of clofibrate with phototherapy in late pre-term newborns with non-hemolytic jaundice.,"BACKGROUND
Despite an understanding of the enzymatic pathways leading to bilirubin production and degradation, very few pharmacologic interventions are utilized and the mainstay of treatment remains phototherapy.
AIMS
To evaluate the efficacy of clofibrate in reducing total serum bilirubin levels in late pre-term neonates with non-hemolytic jaundice.
DESIGN AND SETTING
Double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized trial; tertiary level neonatal unit.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
A randomized controlled study was carried out in the neonatal ward of Children's Hospital, Tabriz, Iran, over a 1-year period. Sixty-eight healthy late pre-term infants readmitted with non-hemolytic hyperbilirubinemia were randomized to receive phototherapy and clofibrate (n= 35) or phototherapy and placebo (n= 33).
STATISTICAL ANALYSIS USED
Chi-square test and independent sample 't' test.
RESULTS
There were no significant differences in the weight, gender, modes of delivery and age of neonates between the two groups. Similarly the mean total serum bilirubin (TSB) level at the time of admission was not significantly different between the two groups [mean+/- SD: 19.72 +/- 1.79 (95% confidence interval: 19.12-20.54 mg/dL) vs. 20.05 +/- 2.82 (95% confidence interval, 19.54-22.04 mg/dL), P= 0.57]. The mean TSB 48 hours after phototherapy [mean+/- SD: 8.06+/- 1.34 (95% confidence interval: 7.94-10.18 mg/dL) vs.10.94 +/- 2.87 (95% confidence interval: 9.92-12.16 mg/dL), P= 0.02] and the mean duration of phototherapy [mean+/- SD: 64.32 +/- 12.48 (95% confidence interval: 60-81.6 hours) vs. 87.84 +/- 29.76 (95% confidence interval: 79.2-108 hours), P< 0.001] were significantly lower in the clofibrate-treated group.

1743,31524116,A low-fat diet up-regulates expression of fatty acid taste receptor gene FFAR4 in fungiform papillae in humans: a co-twin randomised controlled trial.,"Fatty acid taste (FAT) perception is involved in the regulation of dietary fat intake, where impaired FAT is associated with increased fatty food intake. There are a number of FAT receptors identified on human taste cells that are potentially responsible for FAT perception. Manipulating dietary fat intake, and in turn FAT perception, would elucidate the receptors that are associated with long-term regulation of FAT perception. The present study aimed to assess associations between diet-mediated changes to FAT receptors and FAT perception in humans. A co-twin randomised controlled trial was conducted, where each matching twin within a pair were randomly allocated to either an 8-week low-fat (LF; <20 % energy fat) or an 8-week high-fat (HF; >35 % energy fat) diet. At baseline and week 8, fungiform papillae were biopsied in the fasted state and FAT receptor gene expressions (cluster of differentiation 36 (CD36), free fatty acid receptor 2 (FFAR2), FFAR4, G protein-coupled receptor 84 (GPR84) and a delayed rectifying K+ channel (K+ voltage-gated channel subfamily A member 2; KCNA2)) were measured using RT-PCR; and FAT threshold (FATT) was assessed using three-alternate forced choice methodology. Linear mixed models were fitted, adjusting for correlation between co-twins. Intake was compliant with the study design, with the LF and HF groups consuming 14·8 and 39·9 % energy from fat, respectively. Expression of FFAR4 increased by 38 % in the LF group (P = 0·023; time-diet interaction P = 0·063). ΔFFAR4 (Δ, week 8-baseline) was associated with Δfat intake (g) ( = -159·4; P < 0·001) and ΔFATT ( = -8·8; P = 0·016). In summary, FFAR4 is involved in long-term diet-mediated changes to FAT perception. Manipulating dietary fat intake, and therefore FFAR4 expression, might aid in reducing taste-mediated passive overconsumption of fatty foods.",2019,Expression of FFAR4 increased by 38% in the LF group (P=0.023; time-diet interaction P=0.063).,"['fungiform papillae in humans', 'humans']","['8-week low-fat (LF', 'Fatty acid taste (FAT) perception']",['Expression of FFAR4'],"[{'cui': 'C0086418', 'cui_str': 'Humans'}]","[{'cui': 'C0439230', 'cui_str': 'week (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0205251', 'cui_str': 'Low (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0015677', 'cui_str': 'Fats'}, {'cui': 'C0015684', 'cui_str': 'Fatty Acids'}, {'cui': 'C2350521', 'cui_str': 'Gustatory Perception'}]","[{'cui': 'C3854321', 'cui_str': 'Expression'}]",,0.0304403,Expression of FFAR4 increased by 38% in the LF group (P=0.023; time-diet interaction P=0.063).,"[{'ForeName': 'Andrew', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Costanzo', 'Affiliation': 'School of Exercise and Nutrition Sciences, Centre for Advanced Sensory Science, Deakin University, Geelong, VIC 3220, Australia.'}, {'ForeName': 'Dongli', 'Initials': 'D', 'LastName': 'Liu', 'Affiliation': 'School of Exercise and Nutrition Sciences, Centre for Advanced Sensory Science, Deakin University, Geelong, VIC 3220, Australia.'}, {'ForeName': 'Caryl', 'Initials': 'C', 'LastName': 'Nowson', 'Affiliation': 'School of Exercise and Nutrition Sciences, Institute for Physical Activity and Nutrition, Deakin University, Geelong, VIC 3220, Australia.'}, {'ForeName': 'Konsta', 'Initials': 'K', 'LastName': 'Duesing', 'Affiliation': 'Health & Biosecurity, Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation (CSIRO), North Ryde, NSW 2113, Australia.'}, {'ForeName': 'Nicholas', 'Initials': 'N', 'LastName': 'Archer', 'Affiliation': 'Agriculture & Food, CSIRO, North Ryde, NSW 2113, Australia.'}, {'ForeName': 'Steve', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Bowe', 'Affiliation': 'Biostatistics Unit, Faculty of Health, Deakin University, Geelong, VIC 3220, Australia.'}, {'ForeName': 'Russell', 'Initials': 'R', 'LastName': 'Keast', 'Affiliation': 'School of Exercise and Nutrition Sciences, Centre for Advanced Sensory Science, Deakin University, Geelong, VIC 3220, Australia.'}]",The British journal of nutrition,['10.1017/S0007114519002368']

1746,32024506,The youth concussion awareness network (You-CAN) - a school-based peer-led intervention to improve concussion reporting and social support: the protocol for a cluster randomized trial.,"BACKGROUND
Concussion prevalence is increasing in the pediatric population, and is a matter of public health concern. Concussion symptoms can be physical, cognitive, emotional and behavioural, and last longer in high school aged youth than adults. Concussions are underreported in youth due to their lack of knowledge, social environment, perceived outcomes of reporting, norms, and self-efficacy. The Youth Concussion Awareness Network (You-CAN) is a school-based peer-led program designed to increase high school students' intent to report a concussion, and provide social support to a peer. This study aims to investigate whether participation in You-CAN, a program grounded in service learning principles, impacts concussion knowledge, attitudes, intent to report a suspected concussion to an adult, and intent to provide social support to a peer. Secondary aims include assessing the implementation fidelity and acceptability of the intervention.
METHODS
This longitudinal study will use a cluster randomized trial design. Three high schools from six randomly selected Canadian school boards will participate and be randomized to three study arms: (1) You-CAN led by school staff; (2) You-CAN led by school staff and research team; and (3) untreated comparison group. Intervention arms 1 and 2 will deliver the You-CAN program and create a Concussion Council at their school. The Concussion Council will deliver a concussion awareness campaign and participate in an online showcase with other participating schools. In addition, arm 2 will have monthly video-calls with the research team. A survey based on the Theory of Planned Behaviour will be administered school-wide with all arms (1, 2, 3) at two time points (beginning {T 0 } and end {T 1 } of the school year). Exit interviews will be completed with the Concussion Councils and participating school staff.
DISCUSSION
This study will provide evidence of the effectiveness of a school-based peer-led concussion program on increasing concussion knowledge, attitudes, subjective norms, perceived behavioural control, intent to report a concussion to an adult, and intent to provide social support to a peer amongst Canadian high school students. It will also provide important information about the implementation and acceptability of the You-CAN program for high school students and staff.

1748,18579976,"Role of hyoscine N-butyl bromide (HBB, buscopan) as labor analgesic.","BACKGROUND
Hyoscine N-butyl bromide (HBB) acts by inhibiting cholinergic transmission in the abdomino-pelvic parasympathetic ganglia, thus relieving spasm in the smooth muscles of gastrointestinal, biliary, urinary tract and female genital organs, especially the cervico-uterine plexus and aiding cervical dilatation.
AIM
The study was undertaken to observe the effects of 40 mg intravenous HBB as a labor analgesic and labor accelerant.
SETTINGS AND DESIGN
This prospective randomized control trial was carried out on 104 primigravidae with single live fetus in cephalic presentation, with spontaneous onset of labor, between 37-40 weeks of gestation.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
Women were consecutively randomized into study (group I) and control (group II) groups, each with 52 patients after excluding high risk factors like preeclampsia, antepartum hemorrhage, previous uterine scar, and any contraindications to vaginal delivery. Group I received 40 mg HBB as a slow intravenous injection in the active phase of labor while Group II received 2 mL normal saline. Pain scores were assessed at baseline and two hours later. Secondary outcome measures compared were progress of labor based on injection delivery interval, mode of delivery and neonatal condition at birth.
STATISTICAL ANALYSIS
Statistical significance was assessed by using Student's t-test and Chi-square test. P-value < 0.05 was taken as significant.
RESULTS
Pain relief of 35.6% was noted on visual analog score with the use of HBB. Mean duration of labor was 3 hours 46 minutes in Group I compared to 8 hours 16 minutes in Group II (P value: < 0.001). Mode of delivery and neonatal outcome were comparable. No adverse maternal effects were noted.

1749,31524498,"Dapagliflozin Effects on Biomarkers, Symptoms, and Functional Status in Patients With Heart Failure With Reduced Ejection Fraction: The DEFINE-HF Trial.","BACKGROUND
Outcome trials in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus have demonstrated reduced hospitalizations for heart failure (HF) with sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 inhibitors. However, few of these patients had HF, and those that did were not well-characterized. Thus, the effects of sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 inhibitors in patients with established HF with reduced ejection fraction, including those with and without type 2 diabetes mellitus, remain unknown.
METHODS
DEFINE-HF (Dapagliflozin Effects on Biomarkers, Symptoms and Functional Status in Patients with HF with Reduced Ejection Fraction) was an investigator-initiated, multi-center, randomized controlled trial of HF patients with left ventricular ejection fraction ≤40%, New York Heart Association (NYHA) class II-III, estimated glomerular filtration rate ≥30 mL/min/1.73m 2 , and elevated natriuretic peptides. In total, 263 patients were randomized to dapagliflozin 10 mg daily or placebo for 12 weeks. Dual primary outcomes were (1) mean NT-proBNP (N-terminal pro b-type natriuretic peptide) and (2) proportion of patients with ≥5-point increase in HF disease-specific health status on the Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire overall summary score, or a ≥20% decrease in NT-proBNP.
RESULTS
Patient characteristics reflected stable, chronic HF with reduced ejection fraction with high use of optimal medical therapy. There was no significant difference in average 6- and 12-week adjusted NT-proBNP with dapagliflozin versus placebo (1133 pg/dL (95% CI 1036-1238) vs 1191 pg/dL (95% CI 1089-1304), P =0.43). For the second dual-primary outcome of a meaningful improvement in Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire overall summary score or NT-proBNP, 61.5% of dapagliflozin-treated patients met this end point versus 50.4% with placebo (adjusted OR 1.8, 95% CI 1.03-3.06, nominal P =0.039). This was attributable to both higher proportions of patients with ≥5-point improvement in Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire overall summary score (42.9 vs 32.5%, adjusted OR 1.73, 95% CI 0.98-3.05), and ≥20% reduction in NT-proBNP (44.0 vs 29.4%, adjusted OR 1.9, 95% CI 1.1-3.3) by 12 weeks. Results were consistent among patients with or without type 2 diabetes mellitus, and other prespecified subgroups (all P values for interaction=NS).
CONCLUSIONS
In patients with heart failure and reduced ejection fraction, use of dapagliflozin over 12 weeks did not affect mean NT-proBNP but increased the proportion of patients experiencing clinically meaningful improvements in HF-related health status or natriuretic peptides. Benefits of dapagliflozin on clinically meaningful HF measures appear to extend to patients without type 2 diabetes mellitus.

1750,31343477,Ultrasonographic Detection of Micro-Bubbles in the Right Atrium to Confirm Peripheral Venous Catheter Position in Children.,"OBJECTIVES
In pediatric patients, indwelling peripheral venous catheters are sometimes displaced to extravascular positions, causing infiltration or extravasation. No reliable techniques are available to confirm accurate IV catheterization. However, ultrasonographic detection of micro-bubble turbulence in the right atrium after saline injection has been reported to be useful in confirming central venous catheter positions in both adults and children. This study evaluated whether this micro-bubble detection test can offer better confirmation of peripheral venous catheter positions compared with the smooth saline injection technique in pediatric patients.
DESIGN
Randomized controlled study.
SETTING
Single tertiary PICU.
PATIENTS
Pediatric patients (weighing < 15 kg) who already had or required a peripheral venous catheter.
INTERVENTIONS
Patients were randomly allocated to either of the two groups (150 patients per group): undergoing either the micro-bubble detection test (M group) or the smooth saline injection test (S group).
MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS
The peripheral venous catheters were confirmed to be IV located in the final position in 137 and 139 patients in the M and S groups, respectively. In properly located catheters, the tests were positive in 100% (n = 137/137; sensitivity, 100%; 95% CI, 97.8-100), and in 89% (n = 124/139; 95% CI, 82.8-93.8) of the M and S groups, respectively (p = 0.0001). Among the catheters located in extravascular positions, the tests were negative in 100% (n = 13/13; specificity, 100%; 95% CI, 79.4-100), and in 64% (n = 7/11; 95% CI, 30.8-89.1) of the M and S groups, respectively (p = 0.017).

1751,31038276,Impact of haemostatic sealant versus electrocoagulation on ovarian reserve after laparoscopic ovarian cystectomy of ovarian endometriomas: a randomised controlled trial.,"OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the effect of haemostatic sealant compared with bipolar coagulation on ovarian reserve after laparoscopic cystectomy for ovarian endometriomas.
DESIGN
Patient-blinded, randomised controlled trial.
SETTING
University-affiliated tertiary hospital.
POPULATION
Women aged 18-40 years with 3-8 cm unilateral or bilateral endometriomas.
METHODS
Ninety-four patients were randomised to receive haemostasis by the application of haemostatic sealant (n = 47) or standard care (n = 47).
MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES
Primary outcome was the effect on the antral follicular count 3 months after the operation as it captures the effect on the ovary subjected to treatment. Secondary outcomes included the change in anti-Mullerian hormone, follicular-stimulating hormone and peri-operative outcomes including haemostasis, complications, pain, and satisfaction scores.
RESULTS
A total of 94 patients aged 32.36 ± 4.92 years underwent laparoscopic cystectomy for ovarian endometriomas. The average diameter of the endometrioma was 4.21 ± 1.38 cm. The increase in antral follicle count of the affected ovaries at 3 months in the intervention group (+2.36 ± 0.37) was significantly (P = 0.013) higher than that in the control group (+1.08 ± 0.36). Repeated measures analysis of variance revealed significant effect with time (P < 0.001) and of interaction of group × time (P = 0.029) for affected ovary antral follicle count. No significant difference was noted between the two groups with regard to follicular-stimulating hormone, anti-Mullerian hormone, and other secondary outcomes.
CONCLUSIONS
Applying haemostatic sealant after laparoscopic cystectomy of ovarian endometriomas produced a greater increase in antral follicle count 3 months after surgery compared with the control group.

1752,19414982,"The effects of short-term, rapid glycemic control on the peroneal nerve function and serum VCAM-1 and AGE in type 2 diabetic patients in Malaysia.","BACKGROUND
The role of endothelial injury and circulating adhesion molecule in the development and progression of diabetic peripheral neuropathy in the long-term has been established previously.
AIMS
To study the effects of short-term glycemic control using insulin and oral hypoglycemic agent therapy (OHA) on the peroneal nerve function and vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1) and advanced glycation endproducts (AGE) levels in type 2 diabetic patients.
SETTINGS AND DESIGN
A randomized controlled study involving poorly controlled (HbA1c, 7.5%-11%) type 2 diabetic patients attending the endocrinology outpatient center in a tertiary hospital in Kuala Lumpur.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
Twenty-nine patients were randomized to receive insulin (n=15) or OHA (n=14) for 8 weeks. The glycemic variables (HbA1c, fasting plasma glucose [FPG], fructosamine), VCAM-1, serum AGE and the peroneal motor conduction velocity (PMCV) were measured at baseline and at 4-week intervals.
STATISTICAL ANALYSIS USED
Paired 't' test or Kruskal Wallis test; and the unpaired 't' test or Mann-Whitney U test were used for within-group and between-group analyses, respectively. Correlation was analyzed using Spearman's correlation coefficient.
RESULTS
Within-group analysis showed significant progressive improvement in HbA1c at weeks 4 and 8 in the insulin group. The PMCV improved significantly in both groups by week 8, and by week 4 (P = 0.01) in the insulin group. PMCV correlated negatively with VCAM-1 (P = 0.031) and AGE (P = 0.009) at week 8.

1753,18418571,Internally coated endotracheal tubes with silver sulfadiazine in polyurethane to prevent bacterial colonization: a clinical trial.,"OBJECTIVE
Coated medical devices have been shown to reduce catheter-related infections. We coated endotracheal tubes (ETT) with silver sulfadiazine (SSD), and tested them in a clinical study to assess the feasibility, safety, and efficacy of preventing bacterial colonization.
DESIGN
A prospective, randomized clinical trial, phase I-II.
SETTING
Academic intensive care unit (ICU).
PARTICIPANTS
Forty-six adult patients expected to need 12-24 h of intubation were randomized into two groups.
INTERVENTIONS
Patients were randomized to be intubated with a standard non-coated ETT (St-ETT, n=23; control group), or with a SSD-coated ETT (SSD-ETT, n=23).
MEASUREMENTS AND RESULTS
Coating with SSD prevented bacterial colonization of the ETT (frequency of colonization: SSD-ETT 0/23, St-ETT 8/23; p<0.01). No organized bacterial biofilm could be identified on the lumen of any ETT; however, SSD was associated with a thinner mucus layer (in the SSD-ETT secretion deposits ranged from 0 to 200 microm; in the St-ETT deposits ranged between 50 and 700 microm). No difference was observed between the two groups in the tracheobronchial brush samples (frequency of colonization: SSD-ETT 0/23, St-ETT 2/23; p=0.48). No adverse reactions were observed with the implementation of the novel device.
CONCLUSION
SSD-ETT can be safely used in preventing bacterial colonization and narrowing of the ETT in patients intubated for up to 24 h (mean intubation time 16 h).",2008,SSD-ETT can be safely used in preventing bacterial colonization and narrowing of the ETT in patients intubated for up to 24 h (mean intubation time 16 h).,"['Forty-six adult patients expected to need 12-24 h of intubation', 'Academic intensive care unit (ICU']","['SSD-coated ETT (SSD-ETT, n=23', 'coated endotracheal tubes (ETT) with silver sulfadiazine (SSD', 'silver sulfadiazine', 'standard non-coated ETT']","['bacterial colonization of the ETT (frequency of colonization', 'feasibility, safety, and efficacy', 'adverse reactions']","[{'cui': 'C0001675', 'cui_str': 'Adult'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C0027552', 'cui_str': 'Needs'}, {'cui': 'C0021925', 'cui_str': 'Intubation'}, {'cui': 'C0021708', 'cui_str': 'Intensive care unit (environment)'}]","[{'cui': 'C0723179', 'cui_str': 'SSD'}, {'cui': 'C0453946', 'cui_str': 'Coat (physical object)'}, {'cui': 'C0336630', 'cui_str': 'Endotracheal tube, device (physical object)'}, {'cui': 'C0037134', 'cui_str': 'silver sulfadiazine'}, {'cui': 'C0038137', 'cui_str': 'standards'}]","[{'cui': 'C2747813', 'cui_str': 'Bacterial colonisation'}, {'cui': 'C0376249', 'cui_str': 'Frequency (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0036043', 'cui_str': 'Safety'}, {'cui': 'C0559546', 'cui_str': 'Adverse reaction (disorder)'}]",46.0,0.0254251,SSD-ETT can be safely used in preventing bacterial colonization and narrowing of the ETT in patients intubated for up to 24 h (mean intubation time 16 h).,"[{'ForeName': 'Lorenzo', 'Initials': 'L', 'LastName': 'Berra', 'Affiliation': 'Anesthesia and Critical Care, Massachusetts General Hospital, Harvard Medical School, 55 Fruit Street, Boston, MA 02114, USA. lberra@partners.org'}, {'ForeName': 'Theodor', 'Initials': 'T', 'LastName': 'Kolobow', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Patrice', 'Initials': 'P', 'LastName': 'Laquerriere', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Betsey', 'Initials': 'B', 'LastName': 'Pitts', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Simone', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Bramati', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Joshua', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Pohlmann', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Chiara', 'Initials': 'C', 'LastName': 'Marelli', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Miriam', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Panzeri', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Pietro', 'Initials': 'P', 'LastName': 'Brambillasca', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Federico', 'Initials': 'F', 'LastName': 'Villa', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Andrea', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Baccarelli', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Sylvie', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Bouthors', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Henry T', 'Initials': 'HT', 'LastName': 'Stelfox', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Luca M', 'Initials': 'LM', 'LastName': 'Bigatello', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Joel', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Moss', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Antonio', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Pesenti', 'Affiliation': ''}]",Intensive care medicine,['10.1007/s00134-008-1100-1']
1754,20854770,Depressive symptoms and clinical status during the Treatment of Adolescent Suicide Attempters (TASA) Study.,"OBJECTIVE
To examine the course of depression during the treatment of adolescents with depression who had recently attempted suicide.
METHOD
Adolescents (N = 124), ages 12 to 18 years, with a 90-day history of suicide attempt, a current diagnosis of depressive disorder (96.0% had major depressive disorder), and a Children's Depression Rating Scale-Revised (CDRS-R) score of 36 or higher, entered a 6-month treatment with antidepressant medication, cognitive-behavioral therapy focused on suicide prevention, or their combination (Comb), at five academic sites. Treatment assignment could be either random or chosen by study participants. Intent-to-treat, mixed effects regression models of depression and other relevant ratings were estimated. Improvement and remission rates were computed with the last observation carried forward.
RESULTS
Most patients (n = 104 or 84%) chose treatment assignment, and overall, three fourths (n = 93) received Comb. In Comb, CDRS-R declined from a baseline adjusted mean of 49.6 (SD 12.3) to 38.3 (8.0) at week 12 and to 27.0 (10.1) at week 24 (p < .0001), with a Clinical Global Impression -defined improvement rate of 58.0% at week 12 and 72.2% at week 24 and a remission (CDRS-R ≤ 28) rate of 32.5% at week 12 and 50.0% at week 24. The CDRS-R and the Scale for Suicidal Ideation scores were correlated at baseline (r = 0.43, p < .0001) and declined in parallel.
CONCLUSIONS
When vigorously treated with a combination of medication and psychotherapy, adolescents with depression who have recently attempted suicide show rates of improvement and remission of depression that seem comparable to those observed in nonsuicidal adolescents with depression.",2009,"The CDRS-R and the Scale for Suicidal Ideation scores were correlated at baseline (r = 0.43, p < .0001) and declined in parallel.

1755,19602758,Comparison of efficacy of oral drotaverine plus mefenamic acid with paracervical block and with intravenous sedation for pain relief during hysteroscopy and endometrial biopsy.,"BACKGROUND
Office hysteroscopy with endometrial biopsy is usually the first investigation for abnormal uterine bleeding and other uterine diseases.
AIMS
To evaluate the effect of oral drotaverine with mefenamic acid on pain perception during hysteroscopy and endometrial biopsy and to compare it with that of paracervical block using 1% lignocaine and with that of intravenous sedation using diazepam with pentazocine.
SETTINGS AND DESIGN
Outpatient gynecological department and open randomized trial.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
One hundred twenty women undergoing hysteroscopy and endometrial biopsy were randomized into 3 groups. Group I received tablet containing drotaverine hydrochloride (80 mg)+mefenamic acid (250 mg), group II received lignocaine paracervically and group III received intravenous diazepam. The intensity of pain during the procedure, 30 and 60 minutes later on visual analog scale (VAS) was assessed.
STATISTICAL ANALYSIS
Statistical analysis was performed using Kruskal-Wallis test, with the Bonferroni correction, the t test, and the chi2 test.
RESULTS
Groups were similar in age, parity, vaginal birth or relevant medical history. A statistically significant difference in pain scores was noted among the 3 groups during the procedure (group I, 4.13+/-1.28; group II, 5.93+/-1.26; group III, 5.58+/-1.51), (P<0.001); as well as 30 minutes later (group I, 1.78+/-0.89; group II, 2.53+/-0.81; group III, 2.23+/-0.94), (P<0.001) and 60 minutes later (group I, 1.2+/-0.46; group II, 1.98+/-0.83; group III, 1.68+/-0.75), (P<0.001). VAS at different time intervals among the groups was also statistically significant. No adverse effects were observed.

1756,31511330,Lymphocyte counts and infection rates: Long-term fingolimod treatment in primary progressive MS.,"OBJECTIVE
To evaluate lymphocyte counts and incidences of infections in patients with primary progressive MS (PPMS) receiving fingolimod 0.5 mg/d or placebo over 5 years during the INFORMS study, to assess infection rates with longer-term treatment.
METHODS
INFORMS was a randomized, multicenter, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group, phase 3 study of the sphingosine 1-phosphate receptor modulator fingolimod in patients with PPMS. Lymphocyte counts and incidences of infections were compared in patients receiving fingolimod or placebo. Infection rates were assessed in patients receiving fingolimod according to nadir and mean absolute lymphocyte count (ALC).
RESULTS
Overall, 336 patients received fingolimod 0.5 mg/d (total exposure: 908.1 patient-years), and 487 received placebo (1,423.5 patient-years). In patients receiving fingolimod, mean ALC decreased by approximately 70% in the 2 weeks following treatment initiation and remained stable throughout the study. The incidences of all infections in the fingolimod and placebo groups were similar (53.6 vs 51.9 per 100 patient-years). The most common infections in patients receiving fingolimod were urinary tract infections (5.7 per 100 patient-years), upper respiratory tract infections (4.2 per 100 patient-years), and influenza (3.2 per 100 patient-years); incidences were similar in the placebo group (5.9, 4.2, and 3.1 per 100 patient-years, respectively). There was no apparent association between nadir or mean ALC and incidence of infection-related adverse events.
CONCLUSIONS
In patients with PPMS, long-term treatment with fingolimod 0.5 mg/d for up to 5 years led to an expected decrease of approximately 70% in mean ALC and did not appear to correlate with increased risk of infection.
CLASSIFICATION OF EVIDENCE
Because this is a secondary analysis, this study provides Class II evidence that long-term PPMS treatment with fingolimod decreased mean ALC by approximately 70%, but did not significantly increase infection risk.",2019,"The most common infections in patients receiving fingolimod were urinary tract infections (5.7 per 100 patient-years), upper respiratory tract infections (4.2 per 100 patient-years), and influenza (3.2 per 100 patient-years);

1759,16351593,Antihypertensive treatment in patients with end-stage renal disease.,"Arterial hypertension is a common finding in patients with end stage renal disease (80% patients are hypertensive). Cardiovascular diseases are the main cause of death in haemodialysis. The present study was performed to asses' successful treatment in hypertensive chronic haemodialysis patients by ultra filtration only and ultra filtration combined with medics. We studied 80 hypertensive adult patients who had been on regular haemodialysis treatment for at least 12 months (average duration of 41 months). All subjects were divided in two different antihypertensive treatment groups including 40 subjects each. The first group of patients were treated with trandolapril and ultra filtration, and the second group of patients were only treated with ultra filtration (control group). Blood pressure measurements before and after HD sessions were performed for each patient. Blood pressure control was defined using World Health Organization criteria 140/90 mm Hg. Average systolic blood pressure levels, after haemodialysis, were in the first group of patients 146.33 +/- 9.7 mm Hg, and in the control group 157,86 +/- 10.33 mm Hg. Average diastolic blood pressure was 87.83 +/- 8.11 mm Hg in the first group of patients and, in the control group it was 91.03 +/- 10.67 mm Hg. There were significant differences between systolic blood pressure level in the first group of patients and the control group of patients as well as in diastolic blood pressure (p < 0.05). We conclude that an antihypertensive therapy by trandolapril is more effective than ultra filtration alone in hypertensive patients on chronic haemodialysis.",2005,There were significant differences between systolic blood pressure level in the first group of patients and the control group of patients as well as in diastolic blood pressure (p < 0.05).,"['hypertensive chronic haemodialysis patients by ultra filtration only and ultra filtration combined with medics', 'patients with end-stage renal disease', 'patients with end stage renal disease (80% patients are hypertensive', '80 hypertensive adult patients who had been on regular haemodialysis treatment for at least 12 months (average duration of 41 months', 'hypertensive patients on chronic haemodialysis', 'All subjects were divided in two different antihypertensive treatment groups including 40 subjects each']","['trandolapril', 'Antihypertensive treatment', 'trandolapril and ultra filtration', 'ultra filtration (control group']","['Arterial hypertension', 'Blood pressure control', 'Average diastolic blood pressure', 'diastolic blood pressure', 'Average systolic blood pressure levels', 'Blood pressure measurements', 'systolic blood pressure level']","[{'cui': 'C0857121', 'cui_str': 'Hypertensive'}, {'cui': 'C1740835', 'cui_str': 'Chronic haemodialysis'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C0016107', 'cui_str': 'Filtration - action'}, {'cui': 'C0336789', 'cui_str': 'Combine'}, {'cui': 'C0022661', 'cui_str': 'End-Stage Kidney Disease'}, {'cui': 'C0001675', 'cui_str': 'Adult'}, {'cui': 'C0205272', 'cui_str': 'Regular (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0019004', 'cui_str': 'Hemodialysis'}, {'cui': 'C0087111', 'cui_str': 'Therapy'}, {'cui': 'C0439231', 'cui_str': 'month (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C2926735', 'cui_str': 'Duration'}, {'cui': 'C0332849', 'cui_str': 'Divide'}, {'cui': 'C0003364', 'cui_str': 'Anti-Hypertensive Drugs'}, {'cui': 'C0439745', 'cui_str': 'Grouped (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0332257', 'cui_str': 'Including (qualifier value)'}]","[{'cui': 'C0076891', 'cui_str': 'trandolapril'}, {'cui': 'C0003364', 'cui_str': 'Anti-Hypertensive Drugs'}, {'cui': 'C0087111', 'cui_str': 'Therapy'}, {'cui': 'C0016107', 'cui_str': 'Filtration - action'}, {'cui': 'C0009932', 'cui_str': 'Control Groups'}]","[{'cui': 'C0221464', 'cui_str': 'Arterial (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C2363982', 'cui_str': 'Hypertension (SMQ)'}, {'cui': 'C0005823', 'cui_str': 'Blood Pressure'}, {'cui': 'C2587213', 'cui_str': 'Controlled (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C1282163', 'cui_str': 'Average diastolic blood pressure'}, {'cui': 'C1305849', 'cui_str': 'Blood pressure diastolic'}, {'cui': 'C1282151', 'cui_str': 'Average systolic blood pressure'}, {'cui': 'C0456079', 'cui_str': 'Level (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0005824', 'cui_str': 'Blood pressure taking (procedure)'}, {'cui': 'C0871470', 'cui_str': 'Systolic Pressure'}]",80.0,0.0122663,There were significant differences between systolic blood pressure level in the first group of patients and the control group of patients as well as in diastolic blood pressure (p < 0.05).,"[{'ForeName': 'Mensura', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Ascerić', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Pharmacology and Toxicology, University of Tuzla, Medical Faculty, Bosnia and Herzegovina.'}, {'ForeName': 'Nedzad', 'Initials': 'N', 'LastName': 'Mulabegović', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Sabina', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Nuhbegović', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Alma', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Nadarević', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Muamera', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Mujcinagić-Vrabac', 'Affiliation': ''}]",Bosnian journal of basic medical sciences,[]
1760,31516558,Comparative outcomes of foot cast and short leg cast in pseudo-Jones avulsion fracture: a single blinded randomized controlled trial.,"Background
Fractures of the metatarsal bones account for 35% of all foot fractures. Conservative management of fractures proximal to the metaphyseal-diaphyseal junction of the fifth metatarsal bone (pseudo-Jones) is by protected weight bearing. The methods of protected weight bearing include short-leg casting and splinting (boot cast, Jones's bandage and elastic bandage). However, currently there is no consensus as to which method is the most suitable.
Method
We have conducted a randomized controlled trial to compare outcomes of foot casting (FC) and short leg casting (SLC) to assess pain, function and complication outcomes for the treatment of pseudo-jones metatarsal fractures. This single-center, single blind,randomized controlled trial was conducted between 1 June 2016-1 July 2018 at Police General Hospital, Bangkok, Thailand.
Result
A total of 72 pseudo-jones metatarsal fracture participants were randomly allocated to treatment by foot cast or short leg cast. The primary outcomes were pain VAS, AOFAS and complications measured at 2, 4, 6 and 8 weeks after receiving the treatment. Seventy-two patients (36 paticipants per group) were enrolled to receive either FC or SLC. The mean VAS measured at baseline, 2 weeks, 4 weeks, 6 weeks and 8 weeks were 7.36, 1.97, 0.58, 0.17 and 0.08 respectively in the FC group; and 6.09, 2.91, 1.23, 0.37 and 0.11 respectively in the SLC group. The mean AOFAS at baseline, 2, 4, 6 and 8 weeks were 33.60, 68.22, 82.72, 91.75 and 98.11 respectively in the FC group; and 32.60, 60.20, 70.20, 92.24 and 99.13 in the SLC group. The estimated mean difference of pain VAS and AOFAS at 2 weeks and 4 weeks were - 0.94 (95% CI: - 1.53, - 0.34), - 0.65 (95%CI: - 1.24, - 0.05), 8.02 (95%CI: 3.74, 12.10) and 12.52 (95%CI: 8.27, 16.78), which were statistically significantly better in the FC groups when compared to the SLC groups. However, there were no statistically significant difference between the two groups at 6 and 8 weeks.
Conclusion
This study demonstrated that the application of foot casting can improve pain VAS and AOFAS function at 2 and 4 weeks in the treatment of pseudo-jones metatarsal fractures when compared to short leg casting.

To evaluate the comparative efficacy of low dose daily versus alternate day plasma exchange in patients with severe myasthenia.
METHODS
Thirty three patients with myasthenia gravis (Osserman's stage II b and III) were randomized to receive alternate day (n = 17) or daily low dose plasma exchange (n = 16). Plasma exchange were carried on each patient, number of exchanges varying subject to their requirements and 20-25 ml/kg plasma was removed during each session. Myasthenia gravis disease scale (MGDS) score was evaluated before and after the procedure. Time to wean off ventilator, removal of nasogastric tube and total duration of hospital stay were also assessed.
RESULTS
There was no statistically significant difference between daily vs. alternate day group with regards to change in MGDS score, percentage change in MGDS score, and complication rates. A decreased hospital stay was observed in patients on daily plasma exchange which almost reached statistical significance.
CONCLUSION
We conclude from our study that daily and alternate day plasma exchange are similar in their efficacy and complication rates, however the daily schedule could be a preferred modality due to decreased hospital stay.",2007,"There was no statistically significant difference between daily vs. alternate day group with regards to change in MGDS score, percentage change in MGDS score, and complication rates.","[""Thirty three patients with myasthenia gravis (Osserman's stage II b and III"", 'severe myasthenia gravis', 'patients with severe myasthenia']",['daily low dose plasma exchange'],"['Time to wean off ventilator, removal of nasogastric tube and total duration of hospital stay', 'Myasthenia gravis disease scale (MGDS) score', 'efficacy and complication rates', 'hospital stay', 'MGDS score, percentage change in MGDS score, and complication rates']","[{'cui': 'C0450358', 'cui_str': '33 (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C0026896', 'cui_str': 'Myasthenia Gravis'}, {'cui': 'C0441767', 'cui_str': 'Stage level 2 (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0439070', 'cui_str': 'III'}, {'cui': 'C0205082', 'cui_str': 'Severe (severity modifier) (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0947912'}]","[{'cui': 'C0332173', 'cui_str': 'Daily (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0445550', 'cui_str': 'Low dose (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0032113', 'cui_str': 'Plasma Exchange'}]","[{'cui': 'C1632851', 'cui_str': 'Times'}, {'cui': 'C0043084', 'cui_str': 'Weaning'}, {'cui': 'C0087153', 'cui_str': 'Ventilators'}, {'cui': 'C0204823', 'cui_str': 'Nasogastric tube removal (procedure)'}, {'cui': 'C0439810', 'cui_str': 'Total (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C2926735', 'cui_str': 'Duration'}, {'cui': 'C3489408', 'cui_str': 'Hospital Stay'}, {'cui': 'C0947912'}, {'cui': 'C0012634', 'cui_str': 'Disease'}, {'cui': 'C0222045'}, {'cui': 'C0449820', 'cui_str': 'Scores (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0009566', 'cui_str': 'Complication (disorder)'}, {'cui': 'C0443172', 'cui_str': 'State changes'}]",33.0,0.238637,"There was no statistically significant difference between daily vs. alternate day group with regards to change in MGDS score, percentage change in MGDS score, and complication rates.","[{'ForeName': 'Isha', 'Initials': 'I', 'LastName': 'Trikha', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Neurology, Neurosciences Centre, All India Institute of Medical Sciences, Ansari Nagar, New Delhi, India.'}, {'ForeName': 'Sumit', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Singh', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Vinay', 'Initials': 'V', 'LastName': 'Goyal', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Garima', 'Initials': 'G', 'LastName': 'Shukla', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Rama', 'Initials': 'R', 'LastName': 'Bhasin', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'Madhuri', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Behari', 'Affiliation': ''}]",Journal of neurology,[]
1762,32119937,Prospective randomized trial comparing the pocket-creation method and conventional method of colorectal endoscopic submucosal dissection.,"BACKGROUND AND AIMS
Colorectal endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is recognized as a challenging procedure. Previously, we reported that a new ESD strategy using the pocket-creation method (PCM) is useful for colorectal ESD, but no prospective randomized study has evaluated the efficacy of the PCM. The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of PCM for colorectal ESD compared with the conventional method (CM).
METHODS
This was a prospective randomized controlled trial at 3 institutions in Japan. Patients with superficial colorectal neoplastic lesions >20 mm predicted to be intramucosal were randomly assigned to undergo ESD using the PCM or CM. Primary outcome was the ESD completion rate defined as completion of colorectal ESD with an en bloc resection using the assigned ESD method without changing to other methods or assisted by other devices.
RESULTS
We analyzed 59 patients with 59 colorectal tumors in the PCM group and 55 in the CM group. The ESD completion rate was significantly higher in the PCM group compared with the CM group (93% [55/59] vs 73% [40/55]; P = .01). En bloc resection rates, R0 resection rates, procedure time, and dissection speed were not significantly different between the 2 groups. The incidence of adverse events was similar in the 2 groups.
CONCLUSIONS
Use of the PCM allows the endoscopist to complete the procedure with the intended method more often than the CM with similar clinical outcomes.

1763,31366999,The effectiveness of home versus community-based weight control programmes initiated soon after breast cancer diagnosis: a randomised controlled trial.,"BACKGROUND
Breast cancer diagnosis may be a teachable moment for lifestyle behaviour change and to prevent adjuvant therapy associated weight gain. We assessed the acceptability and effectiveness of two weight control programmes initiated soon after breast cancer diagnosis to reduce weight amongst overweight or obese women and prevent gains in normal-weight women.
METHODS
Overweight or obese (n = 243) and normal weight (n = 166) women were randomised to a three-month unsupervised home (home), a supervised community weight control programme (community) or to standard written advice (control). Primary end points were change in weight and body fat at 12 months. Secondary end points included change in insulin, cardiovascular risk markers, quality of life and cost-effectiveness of the programmes.
RESULTS
Forty-three percent of eligible women were recruited. Both programmes reduced weight and body fat: home vs. control mean (95% CI); weight -2.3 (-3.5, -1.0) kg, body fat -1.6 (-2.6, -0.7) kg, community vs. control; weight -2.4 (-3.6, -1.1) kg, body fat -1.4 (-2.4, -0.5) kg (all p < 0.001). The community group increased physical activity, reduced insulin, cardiovascular disease risk markers, increased QOL and was cost-effective.
CONCLUSIONS
The programmes were equally effective for weight control, but the community programme had additional benefits.

1764,31383985,Survival benefits of dose-dense early postoperative intraperitoneal chemotherapy in front-line therapy for advanced ovarian cancer: a randomised controlled study.,"Dose-dense early postoperative intraperitoneal chemotherapy (DD-EPIC) significantly increased non-progression rate in advanced ovarian cancer (OC) patients. We report final overall survival (OS) results to further strengthen the efficacy of DD-EPIC in the front-line therapy. In this phase 2 trial, 218 patients with FIGO IIIC-IV OC were randomly allocated to receive DD-EPIC followed by intravenous (IV) chemotherapy (DD-EPIC group), or IV chemotherapy alone (IV group). The study was prespecified to detect differences in progression-free survival (PFS) and OS. At a median follow-up period of 69.1 months, the median OS was 67.5 and 46.3 months in the DD-EPIC and IV group, respectively. The probability rate of OS at 5 years was 61.0% with DD-EPIC, and 38.2% with IV (hazard ratio [HR] for death from OC, 0.70; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.49-1.00).

1765,32017250,Does patient expectancy account for the cognitive and clinical benefits of mindfulness training in older adults?,"OBJECTIVES
Patient expectations of treatment effects could influence neuropsychological and clinical outcomes in clinical trials of behavioral and lifestyle interventions, which could potentially confound the interpretation of findings. Our aim was to examine whether patient expectancy mediated effectiveness of Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) for improving cognitive function and clinical outcome.
METHODS
The present study uses data from a single-blind, multi-site, randomized controlled trial comparing MBSR to a health education attention control in older adults with anxiety and/or depressive disorders and subjective cognitive concerns. Using the Credibility and Expectations Questionnaire, we measured expectancy and perceived credibility of the interventions assigned to patients. Using mediational analysis, we examined the influence of expectancy and credibility on two key outcomes: memory performance and clinical global improvement.
RESULTS
Neither expectancy nor perceived credibility of intervention accounted significantly for MBSR's effectiveness for memory test performance or clinical global improvement.
CONCLUSION
In this clinical trial, expectancy for improvement did not account for the effectiveness of MBSR on memory performance or clinical outcomes in depressed and anxious older adults. We advise that clinical trials of behavioral and lifestyle interventions for brain health in older adults should measure and test the role of expectancy.",2020,"Neither expectancy nor perceived credibility of intervention accounted significantly for MBSR's effectiveness for memory test performance or clinical global improvement.

1767,31201218,"A Phase 3b, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Study of Sodium Zirconium Cyclosilicate for Reducing the Incidence of Predialysis Hyperkalemia.","BACKGROUND
Patients with ESRD have minimal renal potassium excretion and, despite hemodialysis, often have persistent predialysis hyperkalemia. The DIALIZE study (NCT03303521) evaluated sodium zirconium cyclosilicate (SZC) in the management of hyperkalemia in hemodialysis patients.
METHODS
In the DIALIZE study, a double-blind, placebo-controlled, phase 3b multicenter study, we randomized adults with ESRD who were managed by three-times weekly hemodialysis and had predialysis hyperkalemia to receive placebo or SZC 5 g once daily on non-dialysis days, and titrated towards maintaining normokalemia over 4 weeks, in 5 g increments to a maximum of 15 g. The primary efficacy outcome was proportion of patients during the 4-week stable-dose evaluation period who maintained predialysis serum potassium of 4.0-5.0 mmol/L during at least three of four hemodialysis treatments after the long interdialytic interval and did not require urgent rescue therapy to reduce serum potassium.
RESULTS
In total, 196 patients (mean [standard deviation (SD)] age =58.1 [13.7] years old) were randomized to sodium zirconium cyclosilicate or placebo. Of 97 patients receiving sodium zirconium cyclosilicate, 41.2% met the primary end point and were deemed treatment responders compared with 1.0% of 99 patients receiving placebo ( P <0.001). Rescue therapy to reduce serum potassium during the treatment period was required by 2.1% of patients taking sodium zirconium cyclosilicate versus 5.1% taking placebo. Serious adverse events occurred in 7% and 8% of patients in sodium zirconium cyclosilicate and placebo groups, respectively. The two groups displayed comparable interdialytic weight gain. There were few episodes of hypokalemia.

1768,31518717,Magnetic Sphincter Augmentation Superior to Proton Pump Inhibitors for Regurgitation in a 1-Year Randomized Trial.,"BACKGROUND & AIMS
Regurgitative gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) refractive to medical treatment is common and caused by mechanical failure of the anti-reflux barrier. We compared the effects of magnetic sphincter augmentation (MSA) with those of proton-pump inhibitors (PPIs) in a randomized trial.
METHODS
Patients with moderate to severe regurgitation (assessed by the foregut symptom questionnaire) despite once-daily PPI therapy (n = 152) were randomly assigned to groups given twice-daily PPIs (n = 102) or laparoscopic MSA (n = 50) at 20 sites, from July 2015 through February 2017. Patients answered questions from the foregut-specific reflux disease questionnaire and GERD health-related quality of life survey about regurgitation, heartburn, dysphagia, bloating, diarrhea, flatulence, and medication use, at baseline and 6 and 12 months after treatment. Six months after PPI therapy, MSA was offered to patients with persistent moderate to severe regurgitation and excess reflux episodes during impedance or pH testing on medication. Regurgitation, foregut scores, esophageal acid exposure, and adverse events were evaluated at 1 year.
RESULTS
Patients in the MSA group and those who crossed over to the MSA group after PPI therapy (n = 75) had similar outcomes. MSA resulted in control of regurgitation in 72/75 patients (96%); regurgitation control was independent of preoperative response to PPIs. Only 8/43 patients receiving PPIs (19%) reported control of regurgitation. Among the 75 patients who received MSA, 61 (81%) had improvements in GERD health-related quality of life improvement scores (greater than 50%) and 68 patients (91%) discontinued daily PPI use. Proportions of patients with dysphagia decreased from 15% to 7% (P < .005), bloating decreased from 55% to 25%, and esophageal acid exposure time decreased from 10.7% to 1.3% (P < .001) from study entry to 1-year after MSA (Combined P < .001). Seventy percent (48/69) of patients had pH normalization at study completion. MSA was not associated with any peri-operative events, device explants, erosions, or migrations.
CONCLUSIONS

1769,31785594,Neonatal encephalopathy therapy optimization for better neuroprotection with inhalation of CO 2 : the HENRIC feasibility and safety trial.,"BACKGROUND
There is an association between hypocapnia and adverse neurodevelopmental outcome in infants with neonatal encephalopathy (NE). Our aim was to test the safety and feasibility of 5% CO 2 and 95% air inhalation to correct hypocapnia in mechanically ventilated infants with NE undergoing therapeutic hypothermia.
METHODS
Ten infants were assigned to this open-label, single-center trial. The gas mixture of 5% CO 2 and 95% air was administered through patient circuits if the temperature-corrected PCO 2 ≤40 mm Hg. The CO 2 inhalation was continued for 12 h or was stopped earlier if the base deficit (BD) level decreased <5 mmol/L. Follow-up was performed using Bayley Scales of Infant Development II.
RESULTS
The patients spent a median 95.1% (range 44.6-98.5%) of time in the desired PCO 2 range (40-60 mm Hg) during the inhalation. All PCO 2 values were >40 mm Hg, the lower value of the target range. Regression modeling revealed that BD and lactate had a tendency to decrease during the intervention (by 0.61 and 0.55 mmol/L/h, respectively), whereas pH remained stable. The rate of moderate disabilities and normal outcome was 50%.
CONCLUSIONS
Our results suggest that inhaled 5% CO 2 administration is a feasible and safe intervention for correcting hypocapnia.",2020,"Regression modeling revealed that BD and lactate had a tendency to decrease during the intervention (by 0.61 and 0.55 mmol/L/h, respectively), whereas pH remained stable.","['mechanically ventilated infants with NE undergoing therapeutic hypothermia', 'infants with neonatal encephalopathy (NE']",[],"['rate of moderate disabilities and normal outcome', 'safety and feasibility']","[{'cui': 'C0021270', 'cui_str': 'Infant'}, {'cui': 'C0020674', 'cui_str': 'Targeted Temperature Management'}, {'cui': 'C0235820', 'cui_str': 'Neonatal encephalopathy (disorder)'}]",[],"[{'cui': 'C0205081', 'cui_str': 'Moderate (severity modifier) (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0231170', 'cui_str': 'Disability (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C0205307', 'cui_str': 'Normal (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0036043', 'cui_str': 'Safety'}]",,0.143105,"Regression modeling revealed that BD and lactate had a tendency to decrease during the intervention (by 0.61 and 0.55 mmol/L/h, respectively), whereas pH remained stable.","[{'ForeName': 'Eniko', 'Initials': 'E', 'LastName': 'Szakmar', 'Affiliation': '1st Department of Paediatrics, Semmelweis University, Budapest, Hungary.'}, {'ForeName': 'Kata', 'Initials': 'K', 'LastName': 'Kovacs', 'Affiliation': '1st Department of Paediatrics, Semmelweis University, Budapest, Hungary.'}, {'ForeName': 'Unoke', 'Initials': 'U', 'LastName': 'Meder', 'Affiliation': '1st Department of Paediatrics, Semmelweis University, Budapest, Hungary.'}, {'ForeName': 'Geza', 'Initials': 'G', 'LastName': 'Bokodi', 'Affiliation': '1st Department of Paediatrics, Semmelweis University, Budapest, Hungary.'}, {'ForeName': 'Csilla', 'Initials': 'C', 'LastName': 'Andorka', 'Affiliation': '1st Department of Paediatrics, Semmelweis University, Budapest, Hungary.'}, {'ForeName': 'Andrea', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Lakatos', 'Affiliation': 'MR Research Centre, Semmelweis University, Budapest, Hungary.'}, {'ForeName': 'Attila J', 'Initials': 'AJ', 'LastName': 'Szabo', 'Affiliation': '1st Department of Paediatrics, Semmelweis University, Budapest, Hungary.'}, {'ForeName': 'Gusztav', 'Initials': 'G', 'LastName': 'Belteki', 'Affiliation': 'Neonatal Intensive Care Unit, Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Trust, Cambridge, UK.'}, {'ForeName': 'Miklos', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Szabo', 'Affiliation': '1st Department of Paediatrics, Semmelweis University, Budapest, Hungary.'}, {'ForeName': 'Agnes', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Jermendy', 'Affiliation': '1st Department of Paediatrics, Semmelweis University, Budapest, Hungary. jermendy.agnes@med.semmelweis-univ.hu.'}]",Pediatric research,['10.1038/s41390-019-0697-9']
1770,31707770,Individuals With Recurrent Low Back Pain Exhibit Significant Changes in Paraspinal Muscle Strength After Intramuscular Fine Wire Electrode Insertion.,"OBJECTIVE
To examine how insertion and presence of intramuscular fine-wire electromyography electrodes (IFWEs) in lumbar multifidus affect paraspinal muscle strength, endurance, and activation in persons with and without recurrent lower back pain (RLBP) during activities that require high levels of muscle contraction.
DESIGN
Case-control with randomization of conditions.
SETTING
Clinical research laboratory.
PARTICIPANTS
Forty participants age 18 to 40 years were recruited (18 female; mean age = 25.5 years); 20 with a history of RLBP were compared to a matching control group of 20 without RLBP.
INTERVENTIONS
Each participant was tested under three conditions over three sessions. On Session 1, the baseline condition, we assessed muscle performance without IFWE insertion. On Sessions 2 and 3, participants were randomly alternated between two experimental conditions: (1) wire-in, in which the IFWE was inserted and remained within the muscle during testing; and (2) wire-out, in which the IFWE was inserted and immediately removed.
MAIN OUTCOME MEASUREMENTS
Lumbar spinal extensor peak strength, endurance, and normalized electromyography (EMG) amplitude during the endurance test.
RESULTS
Individuals with RLBP showed a significant decrease in peak strength during conditions that involved IFWE insertion and tend to experience more pain during muscle testing. Both groups exhibited similar levels of performance and muscle activation during the endurance test.
CONCLUSION
Our findings indicate that individuals with RLBP exhibited reduced lumbar extensor strength in response to IFWE insertion to the deep paraspinal muscles. This behavior is different from those without RLBP. Researchers should carefully consider the use of IFWE in individuals with RLBP during high exertion activities.",2019,"Both groups exhibited similar levels of performance and muscle activation during the endurance test.

1771,30631933,Laparoscopic vagal nerve blocking device explantation: case series and report of operative technique.,"BACKGROUND
Vagal nerve blockade with the vBloc device (ReShape Lifesciences, St. Paul, MN) has been shown to provide durable 2-year weight loss in patients with moderate obesity. These devices may require removal. We present a series of patients and report our technique for laparoscopic removal of this device.
METHODS
From December 2009 to December 2016, the medical records of patients who underwent laparoscopic explantation of a vagal blocking device at our institution were retrospectively reviewed. All patients initially underwent device placement as part of a multi-center, randomized, controlled trial. The device leads were removed with the application of firm traction in order to safely dissect them away from the stomach and esophagus as the body tended to form a fibrotic capsule surrounding the leads. Operative details, length of stay, 30-day post-operative complications, demographics and reasons for device removal were reported.
RESULTS
Thirty patients were identified. Median age was 54 (37-65) years. Average operative time was 227.63 (± 100.21) min. Median time from implantation to removal was 41 (11-96) months. Removal reasons included device malfunction (7 patients, 23.3%), pain at the neuroregulator site (5 patients, 16.7%), retrosternal or epigastric pain (11 patients, 36.7%), weight regain or dissatisfaction with weight loss (15 patients, 50%), and severe nausea (2 patients, 6.7%). Two patients (6.7%) had Clavien-Dindo grade II complications following explantation. Thirteen patients (43.3%) had dense adhesions noted at the time of operation. Seroma formation at the neuroregulator site was the most common complication (7 patients, 23.3%).
CONCLUSION
The vagal nerve blocking device can be safely removed laparoscopically with a low 30-day complication rate. Surgeons should be familiar with the details of the device appearance, the typical lead location, and should anticipate dense adhesions surrounding the leads. In addition, experience operating in the region of the gastroesophageal junction is imperative.",2019,"Seroma formation at the neuroregulator site was the most common complication (7 patients, 23.3%).

Norursodeoxycholic acid is an orally administered side chain-shortened homologue of ursodeoxycholic acid that undergoes hepatic enrichment with hepatoprotective, anti-inflammatory, and antifibrotic activity. We assessed the efficacy of two doses of norursodeoxycholic acid versus placebo for the treatment of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease.
METHODS
We did a multicentre, double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomised, phase 2 dose-finding clinical trial in tertiary referral hospitals and medical centres in Austria (n=6) and Germany (n=23) for patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease with or without diabetes. Patients with a clinical diagnosis of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease and serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT) concentrations of more than 0·8 times the upper limit of normal were randomly assigned (1:1:1) using a computer-generated central randomisation. Patients were randomly assigned to receive either norursodeoxycholic acid capsules at 500 mg per day or 1500 mg per day, or placebo, for 12 weeks with a subsequent 4-week follow-up period. All individuals involved in the trial were masked to treatment allocation. The primary efficacy endpoint was the mean relative percentage change in ALT concentrations between baseline and end of treatment assessed in the intention-to-treat population. This trial is registered with EudraCT, number 2013-004605-38.
FINDINGS
Between March 30, 2015, and Sept 20, 2016, of 198 individuals included in the analysis, 67 patients were randomly assigned to receive 500 mg norursodeoxycholic acid, 67 to 1500 mg norursodeoxycholic acid, and 64 to placebo. A dose-dependent reduction in serum ALT between baseline and end of treatment was observed with norursodeoxycholic acid versus placebo, with a significant effect in the 1500 mg group (mean change -27·8%, 95% repeated CI -34·7 to -14·4; p<0·0001). Serious adverse events (n=6) and treatment-emergent adverse events (n=314) were reported in a similar proportion of patients across groups. 112 treatment-emergent adverse events occurred in the 1500 mg group, 99 in the 500 mg group, and 103 in the placebo group. The most frequent adverse events were headache, gastrointestinal disorders, and infections (eg, diarrhoea, abdominal pain, or nasopharyngitis).
INTERPRETATION
Norursodeoxycholic acid at 1500 mg resulted in a significant reduction of serum ALT within 12 weeks of treatment when compared with placebo. Norursodeoxycholic acid was safe and well tolerated encouraging further studies.

1773,31504831,The Presence and Persistence of Unrealistic Expectations in Patients Undergoing Nerve Surgery.,"BACKGROUND
Unrealistic expectations of the outcomes of peripheral nerve surgery reduce patient satisfaction. Most clinicians can recall patients with unrealistic expectations despite verbal preoperative education.
OBJECTIVE
To assess patients' baseline level of understanding regarding nerve surgery and appropriate expectations. Additionally, we tested the effect of a written, preoperative educational handout on the patients' retention of knowledge.
METHODS
This cross-sectional survey recruited patients scheduled to undergo peripheral nerve surgery at a single institution in 2016 to 2017. During the preoperative visit, a specialized nurse practitioner reviewed perioperative protocols, risks and benefits of the surgery, and postoperative care. Patients immediately completed a survey to assess their preoperative understanding of the verbally reviewed information. During the same visit, an additional written handout was given to patients in a randomized fashion. At their first postoperative visit, all patients completed the survey again.
RESULTS
A total of 60 patients (mean age 52 yr) were enrolled of which 62% were male. Immediately following verbal instruction, 31% of patients had erroneous (unrealistic) expectations regarding pain, 30% had erroneous expectations regarding postoperative motor outcome, and 41% had erroneous expectations regarding the timing of postoperative recovery. There was no significant difference between patients who received the written handout vs those who did not, on retesting in the postoperative period.
CONCLUSION
Patients undergoing peripheral nerve procedures demonstrated a high baseline level of unrealistic expectations despite standard in-person verbal counseling by specialty providers. A written handout did not have clear benefit in the retention of preoperative surgical teaching. Further investigation into more effective preoperative patient counseling is needed.",2020,"There was no significant difference between patients who received the written handout vs those who did not, on retesting in the postoperative period.

1774,15523163,"A prospective, randomised, double-blind study of comparative efficacy of immediate versus daily cleaning of stethoscope using 66% ethyl alcohol.","OBJECTIVE
Studies have demonstrated frequent contamination of stethoscope and usefulness of different disinfectants. Albeit, studies on the precise mode of cleaning and frequency of cleaning are lacking. This study was carried out to determine efficacy of 66% ethyl alcohol as disinfectant, rate of recontamination without cleaning and benefits of daily versus immediate cleaning.
METHODOLOGY
Prospective, randomised, double blind study of 100 stethoscopes. Four cultures were obtained: before cleaning (Group A), immediately after cleaning with 66% ethyl alcohol (Group B), at the end of 4 days without cleaning (Group C) and at the end of 4 days after cleaning once a day (Group D). Samples were analysed using standard microbiological methods and Colony-forming unit (CFU) count and residual microorganism was computed for all the positive cultures. Medical staff was asked about the cleaning practices. Statistical analysis was carried out using 95% confidence interval and Chi-square test.
RESULTS
90% of the stethoscopes were contaminated with one or more microorganisms. Immediate cleaning and daily cleaning were associated with a significant reduction in the rate of contamination to 28% and 25% respectively. CFU count in groups B and D dropped to less than 10 in 75% and 84.7%, while the mean residual rates were 5.2% and 3.65% respectively. Groups B and D showed no statistically significant difference in terms of efficacy of disinfection.
CONCLUSIONS
66% ethyl alcohol is an effective disinfectant.

1775,15470281,Microbial and cytopathological study of intrauterine contraceptive device users.,"CONTEXT
Intrauterine contraceptive device (IUCD) is a commonly used birth-spacing method which is fitted into maternal system. Clinical, microbial and cytopathological monitoring of women using these devices are important for ascertaining their side effects, risk of genital tract infection and carcinogenic potential.
AIMS
To study clinical, microbial and cytopathological changes in IUCD users in a tertiary care hospital.
DESIGN
Prospective analytic.
SETTING
Tertiary hospital.
MATERIAL AND METHODS
women visiting Family Planning clinic for follow up (IUCD users, n=100) or for IUCD insertion (controls, n=50) were enrolled in the study. Each subject underwent detailed history, general physical, systemic, and per local examination. Vaginal discharge was subjected to pH testing, KOH and wet mount examination, gram staining, and for culture and sensitivity. Bacterial vaginosis was defined using Nugent criteria. Cervical smears were examined and reported as per Bethesda system.
STATISTICAL ANALYSIS
The information was entered into Microsoft Excel spreadsheet. The results were analyzed using EPI Info version-6 and Stata statistical software version 7 packages. Two-tailed t-test, chi2 test with Yates correction and two-tailed Fisher Exact tests were applied.
RESULTS
Most women used CuT 200 (92%). Median duration of use was 2 years. Chief complaints of IUCD users included backache (54%), vaginal discharge (46%), pain lower abdomen (34%), dyspareunia (22%), menorrhagia (18%) and dysmenorrhea (14%). Mean hemoglobin was lower in IUCD users than controls (11.2+/-1.7 versus 11.9+/-1.8 g/dL, p 0.02). Proportion of women with anemia was higher in IUCD users than in controls (29% versus 16%, p 0.12). Cervical erosion was significantly increased in study group as compared the controls (20% versus 0%, p=0.00) whereas only insignificant increase in vaginitis (6% versus 0%, p=0.17). Trichomonas vaginalis and fungal hyphae positivity and gram stain findings and bacterial vaginosis rate were not significantly different in two groups. Vaginal discharge bacterial culture revealed comparable results in two groups. Cytological findings were predominantly inflammatory. None of cases revealed Actinomycosis infection. High-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (n=2) and low grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (n=1) cytological finding were present in IUCD users compared to none in controls. None of the cases had any malignant transformation.

1776,15771597,Saturation with oxygen for ductal dependent congenital heart diseases before and after the prostaglandin therapy.,"Ductal dependent congenital heart diseases represent 14-20% of all congenital heart diseases. A primary goal of the treatment of these diseases is to retain ductus open until the final cardiosurgical treatment. Prostaglandins are presently the only medicaments, which have a capability to keep ductus open. By means of a retrospective study in a period from January, 2000 until December, 2002 at the Paediatric clinic of the Clinical centre of the University in Sarajevo, 14 patients (treated with prostaglandins) diagnosed with ductal dependent congenital heart diseases were analyzed. In our sample, there are 9/14 male patients (64.3%), 11/14 (78.6%) were full-term newborns, while 10/14 (71.4%) were eutrophic at birth. An average saturation increase, after the prostaglandin therapy, measured in blood from the capillaries is 29, and measured transcutanlly is 32 units. Duration of prostaglandin therapy in our study was on average 17.2 days. The most common cause of death was insufficientia cardiorespiratoria (4 out of 11), but sepsis/infection (3 out of 11) and insufficientia renalis were also common. 78.6% (11 out of 14) patients died partly because of the complexity of these diseases, but also because a cardiosurgical treatment is delayed.

1777,15286420,A school-based intervention to teach 3-4 grades children about healthy heart; the Persian Gulf healthy heart project.,"BACKGROUND
Cardiovascular health promotion in children has the potential to reduce the risk of atherosclerosis in both the individual child and the population at large. It thus seems eminently reasonable to initiate healthful lifestyle training in childhood to promote improved cardiovascular health in adult life.
AIMS
To test the hypothesis that a year long, classroom-based education for the third and fourth graders could change their knowledge scores about healthy heart.
SETTINGS AND DESIGN
A randomized, controlled trial in elementary schools of Bushehr/Iran.
METHODS AND MATERIALS
A total of 14 elementary schools, categorized by socioeconomic types and male and female setting were selected and randomized into control or intervention groups. Subjects were 1128 third and fourth graders, aged 9 to 10 years (49.1% boys and 50.9% girls). Over a course of 8 weeks, health educators and sport teachers of the elementary schools presented two hours sessions per week on heart function, nutrition, and exercise for healthy heart and living tobacco free for the intervention group. The education program was based on HeartPower! Program, an American Heart Association program.
STATISTICAL ANALYSIS
Mann-Whitney U test and Wilcoxon matched-pairs signed rank test and Bonferroni correction for the two pair wise comparisons were used.
RESULTS
Total heart knowledge at posttest was 25% correct higher in the intervention than in the control group (p< 0.001). Difference in means of total healthy heart knowledge scores between control and intervention group increased from 1.43 points in baseline to 4.02 points in posttest (p< 0.001).
CONCLUSION
It can be concluded that the classroom-based cardiovascular health promotion had a significant effect on the heart healthy knowledge.

1778,31220872,Social norm feedback reduces primary care antibiotic prescribing in a regression discontinuity study.,"BACKGROUND
Reducing antibiotic prescribing is a priority for health authorities responsible for preventing antimicrobial resistance. Northern Ireland has high rates of antimicrobial use. We implemented a social norm feedback intervention and evaluated its impact.
OBJECTIVES
To estimate the size and duration of the effect of a social norm feedback letter to GPs who worked in the 20% of practices with the highest antimicrobial prescribing.
METHODS
The letter was sent in October 2017 to 221 GPs in 67 practices. To assess the effect of the intervention, we used a sharp non-parametric regression discontinuity (RD) design, with prescribing rates in the four calendar quarters following the intervention as the outcome variables.
RESULTS
In the quarter following the intervention (October to December 2017) there was a change of -25.7 (95% CI = -42.5 to -8.8, P = 0.0028) antibiotic items per 1000 Specific Therapeutic group Age-sex Related Prescribing Units (STAR-PU). At 1 year, the coefficient was -58.7 (95% CI = -116.7 to -0.7, P = 0.047) antibiotic items per 1000 STAR-PU. The greatest change occurred soon after the intervention. Approximately 18900 fewer antibiotic items were prescribed than if the intervention had not been made (1% of Northern Ireland's annual primary care antibiotic prescribing).
CONCLUSIONS
A social norm feedback intervention reduced antibiotic prescribing in the intervention practices. The diminishing effect over time suggests the need for more frequent feedback. The RD method allowed measurement of the effectiveness of an intervention that was delivered as part of normal business, without a randomized trial.",2019,"At 1 year, the coefficient was -58.7 (95% CI = -116.7 to -0.7, P = 0.047) antibiotic items per 1000 STAR-PU.",[],['Social norm feedback'],[],[],"[{'cui': 'C0237750', 'cui_str': 'Societal Norms'}, {'cui': 'C0015744', 'cui_str': 'Feedback'}]",[],,0.0467292,"At 1 year, the coefficient was -58.7 (95% CI = -116.7 to -0.7, P = 0.047) antibiotic items per 1000 STAR-PU.","[{'ForeName': 'Declan T', 'Initials': 'DT', 'LastName': 'Bradley', 'Affiliation': ""Centre for Public Health, Institute of Clinical Sciences, Block A, School of Medicine, Dentistry and Biomedical Sciences, Queen's University Belfast, Royal Victoria Hospital, Grosvenor Road, Belfast, UK.""}, {'ForeName': 'Sarah E', 'Initials': 'SE', 'LastName': 'Allen', 'Affiliation': 'Public Sector Innovation Lab, Department of Finance, Clare House, 303 Airport Road, Belfast, UK.'}, {'ForeName': 'Helen', 'Initials': 'H', 'LastName': 'Quinn', 'Affiliation': 'Health and Social Care Board, 12-22 Linenhall Street, Belfast, UK.'}, {'ForeName': 'Brenda', 'Initials': 'B', 'LastName': 'Bradley', 'Affiliation': 'Health and Social Care Board, 12-22 Linenhall Street, Belfast, UK.'}, {'ForeName': 'Matthew', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Dolan', 'Affiliation': 'Health and Social Care Board, 12-22 Linenhall Street, Belfast, UK.'}]",The Journal of antimicrobial chemotherapy,['10.1093/jac/dkz222']
1779,31494097,"Safety and efficacy of AMG 714 in patients with type 2 refractory coeliac disease: a phase 2a, randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group study.","BACKGROUND
Refractory coeliac disease type 2 is a rare subtype of coeliac disease with high mortality rates; interleukin 15 (IL-15) is strongly implicated in its pathophysiology. This trial aimed to investigate the effects of AMG 714, an anti-IL-15 monoclonal antibody, on the activity and symptoms of refractory coeliac disease type 2.
METHODS
This was a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, phase 2a study of adults with a confirmed diagnosis of refractory coeliac disease type 2. Patients were randomly assigned at a 2:1 ratio to receive seven intravenous doses over 10 weeks of AMG 714 (8 mg/kg) or matching placebo. Biopsy samples were obtained at baseline and week 12 for cellular analysis and histology. The change in the proportion of aberrant intraepithelial lymphocytes from baseline to week 12 with respect to all intraepithelial lymphocytes was the primary endpoint and was quantified using flow cytometry. Secondary endpoints were the change in aberrant intraepithelial lymphocytes with respect to intestinal epithelial cells; intestinal histological scores (villous height-to-crypt depth ratio; VHCD); intraepithelial lymphocyte counts; Marsh score; and patient-reported symptom measures, including the Bristol stool form scale (BSFS) and gastrointestinal symptom rating scale (GSRS). Main analyses were done in the per-protocol population of patients who received their assigned treatment, provided evaluable biopsy samples, and did not have major protocol deviations; only patients with non-atypical disease were included in the analyses of aberrant intraepithelial lymphocytes, including the primary analysis. Safety was assessed in all patients who received at least one dose of study drug. This study is registered at ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT02633020) and EudraCT (2015-004063-36).
FINDINGS
From April 13, 2016, to Jan 19, 2017, 28 patients were enrolled and randomly assigned to AMG 714 (n=19) and placebo (n=9). Six patients were not included in the primary analysis because of protocol deviation (one in the AMG 714 group), insufficient biopsy samples (one in the AMG 714 group), and atypical intraepithelial lymphocytes (three in the AMG 714 group and one in the placebo group). At 12 weeks, the least square mean difference between AMG 714 and placebo in the relative change from baseline in aberrant intraepithelial lymphocyte percentage was -4·85% (90% CI -30·26 to 20·56; p=0·75). The difference between the AMG 714 and placebo groups in aberrant intraepithelial lymphocytes with respect to epithelial cells at 12 weeks was -38·22% (90% CI -95·73 to 19·29; nominal p=0·18); the difference in change in Marsh score from baseline was 0·09% (95% CI -1·60-1·90; nominal p=0·92); the difference in VHCD ratio was 10·67% (95% CI -38·97 to 60·31; nominal p=0·66); and the difference in change in total intraepithelial lymphocyte count was -12·73% (95% CI -77·57-52·12); nominal p=0·69). Regarding symptoms, the proportion of patients with diarrhoea per the BSFS score decreased from ten (53%) of 19 at baseline to seven (37%) of 19 at week 12 in the AMG 714 group and increased from two (22%) of nine at baseline to four (44%) of nine at week 12 in the placebo group (nominal p=0·0008); and the difference between the groups in change in GSRS score was -0·14 (SE 0·19; nominal p=0·48). Eight (89%) patients in the placebo group and 17 (89%) in the AMG 714 group had treatment-emergent adverse events, including one (11%) patient in the placebo group and five (26%) in the AMG 714 group who had serious adverse events. The most common adverse event in the AMG 714 group was nasopharyngitis (eight [42%] patients vs one [11%] in the placebo group).
INTERPRETATION
In patients with refractory coeliac disease type 2 who were treated with AMG 714 or placebo for 10 weeks, there was no difference between the groups in terms of the primary endpoint of aberrant intraepithelial lymphocyte reduction from baseline. Effects on symptoms and other endpoints suggest that further research of AMG 714 may be warranted in patients with refractory coeliac disease type 2.

1780,32103603,A pilot multi-centre prospective randomised controlled trial of RECELL for the treatment of venous leg ulcers.,"Venous leg ulcers (VLUs) have a significant impact on approximately 3% of the adult population worldwide, with a mean NHS wound care cost of £7600 per VLU over 12 months. The standard care for VLUs is compression therapy, with a significant number of ulcers failing to heal with this treatment, especially with wound size being a risk factor for non-healing. This multicentre, prospective, randomised trial evaluated the safety and effectiveness of autologous skin cell suspension (ASCS) combined with compression therapy compared with standard compression alone (Control) for the treatment of VLUs. Incidence of complete wound closure at 14 weeks, donor site closure, pain, Health-Related Quality of Life (HRQoL), satisfaction, and safety were assessed in 52 patients. At Week 14, VLUs treated with ASCS + compression had a statistically greater decrease in ulcer area compared with the Control (8.94 cm 2 versus 1.23 cm 2 , P = .0143). This finding was largely driven by ulcers >10 to 80 cm 2 in size, as these ulcers had a higher mean percentage of reepithelialization at 14 weeks (ASCS + compression: 69.97% and Control: 11.07%, P = .0480).

1781,31882288,Temporal Summation in Chronic Pelvic Pain.,"OBJECTIVE
This study sought to characterize central sensitization further among women with chronic pelvic pain by identifying temporal summation using a cotton-tipped applicator test that can be used at the bedside.
METHOD
A total of 36 women (18 with chronic pain and allodynia; 18 without pain) were recruited. Both groups were randomly assigned to receive 3 strokes of a benign stimulus on the abdomen at differing frequencies: 10, 30, or 100 seconds. Each group included 6 women. Pain was assessed using a rating scale of 1 to 10. Data were analyzed using the multivariate approach to repeated measures analysis of variance.
RESULTS
The pattern of pain scores differed significantly between women with and without chronic pain (P = 0.002). Women with chronic pelvic pain and allodynia showed a statistically significant increase in pain with successive strokes of the cotton-tipped applicator (P = 0.012 for stroke 1 vs. 2, P = 0.026 for stroke 2 vs. 3, and P = 0.005 for stroke 1 vs. 3).
CONCLUSION
Women with chronic pelvic pain and allodynia showed significant worsening of pain with successive strokes of a cotton-tipped applicator.

High rates of antibiotic misprescribing in primary care, with alarming clinical and economic consequences, highlight the urgent need for interventions to improve antibiotic prescribing in this setting.
OBJECTIVES
To assess the effectiveness on antibiotic prescribing quality indicators of a multifaceted intervention targeting health professionals' and patients' behaviour regarding antibiotic use.
METHODS
We conducted a pragmatic cluster-randomized controlled trial in the catchment area covered by Portugal's Central Regional Health Administration. The intervention consisted of a multidisciplinary, multifaceted programme involving physicians, pharmacists and patients, and comprising outreach visits for physicians and pharmacists, and educational materials for health professionals and patients. The following were assessed: relative ratios of prescription of penicillins sensitive to β-lactamase, penicillin combinations including β-lactamase inhibitors, third- and fourth-generation cephalosporins and fluoroquinolones; and the ratio of broad- to narrow-spectrum antibiotics. An interrupted time-series analysis for multiple-group comparisons was performed. The study protocol was registered on Clinical.trials.gov (NCT02173509).
RESULTS
The participation rate in the educational intervention was 64% (197/309 GPs) in a total of 25 counties. Statistically significant improvements were obtained, not only in the relative prescription of penicillins sensitive to β-lactamase (overall relative change of +896%) and penicillin combinations including β-lactamase inhibitors (-161%), but also in the ratio of broad- to narrow-spectrum antibiotics (-200%). Statistically significant results were also obtained for third- and fourth-generation cephalosporins, though only in the immediate term.
CONCLUSIONS
This study showed that quality indicators of antibiotic prescribing can be improved by tackling influences on behaviour including knowledge and attitudes surrounding physicians' clinical practice. Accordingly, these determinants must be considered when implementing interventions aimed at improving antibiotic prescribing.",2019,"Statistically significant results were also obtained for third- and fourth-generation cephalosporins, though only in the immediate term.

1783,15122049,Comparison of the immunogenicity and safety of two different brands of Salmonella typhi Vi capsular polysaccharide vaccine.,"BACKGROUND
The recent emergence of multi-drug-resistant Salmonella strains highlights the need for better preventive measures, including vaccination. Safe and immunologic vaccines have been developed based on purified Vi polysaccharide.
OBJECTIVE
To compare the immune response elicited by two different brands of Salmonella Vi capsular polysaccharide vaccine (ViCPS).
SETTING AND DESIGN
Double blind, randomized (3:1), controlled, parallel, phase III study was conducted at two centres in India to compare the safety and immunogenicity of Typbar, the investigational vaccine with an already marketed vaccine ""X"", in healthy subjects aged between 12 -25 years.
MATERIAL AND METHODS
A sample size of 184 subjects was calculated. Subjects were randomly distributed in two groups, immunized with single dose of Typbar or Vaccine ""X"". Serum samples were taken before 7 days and 4 weeks after immunization for the determination of antibodies to Vi polysaccharide, by ELISA method. Safety was assessed by physical examination, laboratory parameters before and after vaccination and by monitoring adverse events.
STATISTICS
The geometric mean antibody titre (GMT) 4 weeks after vaccination was compared from respective pre-vaccination values by Wilcoxon signed rank test. Geometric mean of antibody levels before and after immunization and the ratio between them (Mann-Whitney test), the Seroconversion rates (Z test of proportions) and the adverse events (Fisher's exact test and Chi square test), were compared between two groups. P value < 0.05 was considered statistically significant. P values and 95% confidence intervals were estimated in two-tailed fashion.
RESULTS
153 subjects (Typbar =116 and Vaccine ""X"" =37) were studied. 71.6% (95% CI=63.4%-79.8%) and 75.7% (95% CI=64.9% - 89.5%) were the seroconversion rates with Typbar and vaccine ""X"" respectively. The GMT values for Vi antibodies induced after Typbar and vaccine ""X"" were 10.23 Typbar and 13.46 mg/mL respectively and these values showed high significance when compared to their respective pre-immunization GMT values (P<0.0001) at 95% CI (-10.49 to -7.19 mg/mL for Typbar and -14.69 to -8.86 mg/mL for Vaccine ""X""). The induction of antibody response appeared to be slightly stronger (P=0.032) with vaccine ""X"" when compared to that of Typbar. This is justifiable as the same group also had high pre-immunization GMT values (P=0.021).
CONCLUSION
The immunogenicity and safety of the investigational vaccine Typbar was found to be similar to that of already marketed brand of Vi CPS, Vaccine ""X"".

1784,31021036,Randomized trial of facilitated subcutaneous immunoglobulin in multifocal motor neuropathy.,"BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE
To optimize subcutaneous therapy with immunoglobulins, large volume infusion of immunoglobulin G facilitated by pretreatment with hyaluronidase (fSCIG) was compared to conventional infusion of multiple small dosages (cSCIG) in 20 patients with multifocal motor neuropathy.
METHODS
A randomized, non-inferiority and observer-blinded cross-over design was applied with a treatment period of 24 weeks for each therapy.
RESULTS
In 18 patients fSCIG was feasible, two patients leaving the study due to side-effects. The primary study variable, isometric strength, was unchanged, being 100.8% [95% confidence interval (CI) 94.8%-107.1%) in fSCIG and 105.9% (95% CI 99.8%-112.0%) in cSCIG. Secondary end-points of disability, functions, impairments and quality of life showed no differences between the two treatments. Mild and short-lasting generalized side-effects were similar in the two groups, whereas the relative frequency of localized side-effects at the injection site was increased after fSCIG [0.63 (95% CI 0.23-1.00) vs. 0.09 (95% CI 0.00-0.22), P = 0.005]. The preference of the patients favoured fSCIG for two out of five visual analogue scale scores as well as the total mean score of all preferences (P = 0.03).

1785,14993717,Sublingual misoprostol before first trimester abortion: a comparative study using two dose regimens.,"UNLABELLED
Various methods have been described for preoperative cervical priming prior to vacuum aspiration (VA) in first trimester pregnancy termination, to facilitate cervical dilatation and shorten the abortion procedure. Recently misoprostol a prostaglandin E1 analogue has been shown to be effective in facilitating cervical dilatation prior to VA. Misoprostol offers several advantages over the other prostagland in analogues including stability at room temperature, ease of administration and minimal side effects.
OBJECTIVE
To determine the optimal dosage and dosing interval for the use of misoprostol administered sublingually for pre-abortion cervical dilatation.
SETTING & DESIGN
This was a prospective randomised study conducted at Comprehensive Rural Health Project, Ballabgarh the rural health centre under Centre for Community Medicine, AIIMS, New Delhi.
MATERIAL AND METHODS
One hundred and twenty pregnant women between 6-11 weeks of gestation opting for voluntary medical termination of pregnancy were (MTP) randomly allocated to either 200 microg or the 400 microg misoprostol group. Vacuum aspiration was performed either two or three hours after administration of sublingual misoprostol. Using Hegar's dilators, degree of cervical dilatation before vacuum aspiration was measured. Other parameters assessed included the amount of additional dilatation required, intra-operative blood loss and associated side effects.
STATISTICS
Statistical analysis was conducted using chisquare, the student's t and the Mann-Whitney U tests to examine the difference between the two groups.
RESULTS
In the 200 microg misoprostol group 33% achieved a dilatation of > or = 8 mm compared with 71% of women in the 400 microg misoprostol group. The odds ratio was 95.8 (95% CI 10.2-842.9) for 400 microg misoprostol for successful preoperative cervical dilatation of > or = 8 mm. The mean baseline cervical dilatation for 400 microg and 200 microg misoprostol was 8.2 mm and 6.0 mm respectively (P < 0.001). The use of 400 mg misoprostol with an evacuation interval of two hours appears to be the optimal dosage and evacuation interval. Increasing the time interval beyond two hours did not confer any additional advantage on the rate of successful cervical dilatation but was instead associated with an increased incidence of side effects such as preoperative vaginal bleeding, abdominal pain and shivering.
CONCLUSION
Our study has shown that Sublingual administration of 400 microg of misoprostol at least two hours before procedure is effective for preoperative cervical dilatation before vacuum aspiration in first trimester pregnancy termination. There is no additional advantages of increasing the dosing interval upto three hours.",2004,The odds ratio was 95.8 (95% CI 10.2-842.9) for 400 microg misoprostol for successful preoperative cervical dilatation of > or = 8 mm.,"['before first trimester abortion', 'One hundred and twenty pregnant women between 6-11 weeks of gestation opting for voluntary medical termination of pregnancy', 'at Comprehensive Rural Health Project, Ballabgarh the rural health centre under Centre for Community Medicine, AIIMS, New Delhi']","['Misoprostol', 'sublingual misoprostol', 'Sublingual misoprostol', 'misoprostol', 'Vacuum aspiration']","['rate of successful cervical dilatation', 'amount of additional dilatation required, intra-operative blood loss and associated side effects', 'preoperative vaginal bleeding, abdominal pain and shivering', 'mean baseline cervical dilatation']","[{'cui': 'C0032979', 'cui_str': 'Early Placental Phase'}, {'cui': 'C0392535', 'cui_str': 'Abortion, Induced'}, {'cui': 'C4319550', 'cui_str': '120 (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0033011', 'cui_str': 'Pregnant Women'}, {'cui': 'C0439230', 'cui_str': 'week (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0032961', 'cui_str': 'Gestation'}, {'cui': 'C0439656', 'cui_str': 'Voluntary (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C3146282', 'cui_str': 'Medical termination of pregnancy (procedure)'}, {'cui': 'C0035959'}, {'cui': 'C0035960', 'cui_str': 'Rural Health Center'}, {'cui': 'C0205099', 'cui_str': 'Central (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0009473', 'cui_str': 'Community Medicine'}, {'cui': 'C0205314', 'cui_str': 'New (qualifier value)'}]","[{'cui': 'C0085174', 'cui_str': 'Misoprostol'}, {'cui': 'C4521982', 'cui_str': 'Sublingual'}, {'cui': 'C0042221', 'cui_str': 'Vacuum'}, {'cui': 'C0349707', 'cui_str': 'Aspiration - action (qualifier value)'}]","[{'cui': 'C1272703', 'cui_str': 'Successful'}, {'cui': 'C0079103', 'cui_str': 'Cervical Dilatation'}, {'cui': 'C1322279', 'cui_str': 'Dilation'}, {'cui': 'C0347985', 'cui_str': 'During values (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0019080', 'cui_str': 'Bleeding'}, {'cui': 'C0001688', 'cui_str': 'side effects'}, {'cui': 'C0445204', 'cui_str': 'Preoperative (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C2979982', 'cui_str': 'Vaginal Bleeding'}, {'cui': 'C0000737', 'cui_str': 'Abdominal Pain'}, {'cui': 'C0036973', 'cui_str': 'Shiverings'}, {'cui': 'C0444504', 'cui_str': 'Mean (qualifier value)'}]",120.0,0.457558,The odds ratio was 95.8 (95% CI 10.2-842.9) for 400 microg misoprostol for successful preoperative cervical dilatation of > or = 8 mm.,"[{'ForeName': 'N', 'Initials': 'N', 'LastName': 'Vimala', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Obstetrics & Gynaecology, AIIMS, New Delhi, India.'}, {'ForeName': 'S', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Mittal', 'Affiliation': ''}, {'ForeName': 'S', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Kumar', 'Affiliation': ''}]",Indian journal of medical sciences,[]
1786,14646157,A randomized controlled comparison of minialpartomy and lapartomy in ectopic pregnancy cases.,"BACKGROUND
As ectopic pregnancy is associated with significant maternal mortality and morbidity it may be worthwhile to find alternative surgical method to traditional laparotomy.
AIMS
To compare the efficacy, safety and cost effectiveness of minilaparotomy surgery for ectopic pregnancy cases with standard laparotomy method.
SETTING AND DESIGN
A total of 60 patients of ectopic pregnancy were randomized for minilaparotomy and laparotomy (30 cases each) for three years from January. 1998 to March 2001 in a medical college hospital.
MATERIAL AND METHODS
Patients history, clinical examination, intraoperative, preoperative and postoperative data were recorded and compared in minilaparotomy and laparotomy groups.
STATISTICAL ANALYSIS USED
Chi-square and Fischer chi-square test is used using P value of less than 0.05 as level of significance.
RESULTS
Mean operative time was significantly less in minilaparotomy (38 minutes) than in laparotomy group (54 minutes). Postoperative complications were fever in 4(13.33%) and 6(20%) cases, paralytic ileus in 3(10%) and 8(26.66%) cases, urinary tract infection in 2(6.66%) and 3(10%) cases and wound infection in 1(3.33%) and 5(16.66%) cases respectively in the two groups and were significantly less in the minilaparotomy cases. Mean day of mobility, starting normal diet and discharge from the hospital were 10 hours and 24 hours, 1.5 days and 3.1 days and 3.4 days and 6.9 days respectively in the two groups and were significantly less in the minilaparotomy group than the laparotomy group.

One hundred and sixty five women with diagnosis of pelvic inflammatory disease were randomized into three equal groups getting ciprofloxacin (500 mg) and tinidazole (600 mg) combination twice daily for 7 days (Group 1), a kit containing fluconazole (150 mg), azithromycin (1 gm) and secnidazole (2 mg) as one time dose (Group 2) and Doxycycline 100mg twice daily and metronidazole 200 mg thrice daily for seven days (Group 3). Severity score was determined on first visit and after 1 week and 4 weeks when patients were called for follow up.
STATISTICAL ANALYSIS
Chisqare test, Krusker wallis test and Mann Whitney test.
RESULTS
There was significant reduction in severity score after 1 week of treatment, which was further reduced after 4 weeks in all the three groups. Cure rate was highest in-group 1 (96%) followed by group 2 (93.5) and group 3 (91.3%) but the difference was not statistically significant. Resolution of inflammatory mass was highest in group 1. The incidence of side effects was highest and compliance was lowest in the doxycycline -metronidazole group, but the difference was not statistically significant.
CONCLUSION
All the three treatment combinations were found to be equally effective in the syndromic management of pelvic inflammatory disease.",2003,"The incidence of side effects was highest and compliance was lowest in the doxycycline -metronidazole group, but the difference was not statistically significant.

1788,31494096,"Safety and efficacy of AMG 714 in adults with coeliac disease exposed to gluten challenge: a phase 2a, randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled study.","BACKGROUND
Interleukin 15 (IL-15) is implicated in the pathophysiology of coeliac disease. AMG 714 is the first anti-IL-15 monoclonal antibody to be investigated for the treatment of coeliac disease. We aimed to investigate the effects of AMG 714 in patients with coeliac disease who underwent gluten challenge.
METHODS
This randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group, phase 2a trial was done at three clinical sites in Finland. Inclusion criteria included age 18-80 years, a confirmed diagnosis of coeliac disease, and adherence to a gluten-free diet for at least 12 months before screening. Patients were randomly assigned (1:1:1) to 150 mg AMG 714, 300 mg AMG 714, or placebo using permuted blocks and stratified by study site and sex. Patients and study staff were masked to treatment assignment. Treatments were administered by two subcutaneous injections every 2 weeks for 10 weeks (total six doses). Patients without severe villous atrophy at baseline received a gluten challenge (2-4 g daily) during weeks 2-12. Small bowel biopsy samples were obtained for histological assessments at baseline and week 12. The primary efficacy endpoint was the percentage change from baseline to week 12 in villous height-to-crypt depth (VHCD) ratio. Secondary endpoints were CD3-positive intraepithelial lymphocyte density; clinical symptoms measured by gastrointestinal symptom rating scale (GSRS), coeliac disease GSRS, and Bristol stool form scale (BSFS); and changes in anti-tTG and anti-DGP antibodies from baseline. The primary analysis was done in the per-protocol 1 population of patients who received at least one dose of study drug and who underwent the gluten challenge. Safety analyses were done in all patients who received at least one dose of study drug. This trial is registered at ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT02637141 and EudraCT, 2015-003647-19.
FINDINGS
Between April 13, 2016, and Nov 22, 2016, 64 patients were enrolled and randomly assigned to either the 150 mg AMG 714 group (n=22), the 300 mg AMG 714 group (n=22), or the placebo group (n=20). Two patients did not start treatment and two did not provide post-treatment biopsy samples. 49 patients underwent the gluten challenge (per-protocol 1 population) and 11 patients did not because of baseline villous atrophy. AMG 714 did not prevent mucosal injury due to gluten challenge. The least square mean difference in the relative change from baseline in VHCD ratio was -2·49% (95% CI -16·82 to 11·83; p=0·73) between 150 mg AMG 714 and placebo and 6·39% (-7·07 to 19·85; p=0·34) between 300 mg AMG 714 and placebo. Neither comparison was statistically significant. The density of CD3-positive intraepithelial lymphocytes increased in all groups, with smaller increases in the 300 mg group (-41·24% [95% CI -79·28 to -3·20] vs placebo, nominal p=0·03) but not the 150 mg group (-14·32% [-54·39 to 25·74], nominal p=0·47). Clinical symptoms were ameliorated with AMG 714 treatment between baseline and week 12, particularly diarrhoea as measured by the BSFS (nominal p=0·01 for 150 mg vs placebo, and nominal p=0·0002 for 300 mg vs placebo). Serum antibody titres for anti-tTG and anti-DGP antibodies increased in all three treatment groups, with no significant difference between AMG 714 and placebo. Treatment-emergent adverse events occurred in 21 (95%) patients in the 150 mg AMG 714 group, 0 (95%) in the 300 mg AMG 714 group, and 19 (100%) in the placebo group. The most common treatment-emergent adverse events were gastrointestinal disorders (17 [77%] participants in the 150 mg AMG 714 group, 16 [76%] in the 300 mg AMG 714 group, and 13 [68%] in the placebo group). Injection site reactions were the most common individual adverse event, reported in eight (36%) patients in the 150 mg AMG 714 group, 11 (52%) in the 300 mg group, and five (26%) in the placebo group. No serious adverse events occurred.
INTERPRETATION
The primary endpoint, change in VHCD ratio from baseline after 12 weeks of treatment in patients with coeliac disease undergoing gluten challenge, was not significantly different between placebo and AMG 714 at either 150 mg or 300 mg. Effects on intraepithelial lymphocyte density and symptoms suggest that further research of AMG 714 may be warranted in patients with non-responsive coeliac disease.

1792,31831920,Randomized controlled trial of topical mupirocin versus mupirocin with sucralfate combination in chronic skin ulcers.,"OBJECTIVES
The objective of this study was to carry out a head-to-head comparison of topical sucralfate combined with mupirocin versus mupirocin alone in the treatment of chronic skin ulcers with respect to both effectiveness and safety.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
A parallel-group, open-label, randomized, controlled trial (CTRI/2015/12/006443) was carried out with patients suffering from skin ulcers of Wagner grading 1 or 2 persisting for over 4 weeks. Ninety-six patients were recruited in total, and the modified intention-to-treat analysis dataset included 44 participants treated with mupirocin 2% and 46 treated with combined mupirocin 2% and sucralfate 7% ointment. Both medications were applied topically thrice daily for 6 weeks. Ulcer area assessed using millimeter graph paper and wound infection score assessed on a three-point scale were effectiveness measures. Treatment-emergent adverse reactions that were reported by patients or observed by the investigators were recorded.
RESULTS
The median ulcer area was significantly reduced in the combined treatment group at the end of treatment. Clinically, 41.3% of the participants in the combined group showed complete ulcer healing at 6 weeks compared to 18.18% in the mupirocin alone group ( P = 0.022). The wound infection score declined significantly from baseline by the end of 3 weeks of treatment in both the groups. The frequency of qualitative wound attributes, namely pain, discharge, and erythema, remained comparable between the groups except for discharge which disappeared completely from all remaining ulcers in the combined group but was still present in 11.36% of the participants treated with mupirocin alone ( P = 0.025) at 6 weeks. Adverse events were few, all local, mild, and tolerable.

1793,31374208,Pre-EDIT: A Randomized Feasibility Trial of Elastance-Directed Intrapleural Catheter or Talc Pleurodesis in Malignant Pleural Effusion.,"BACKGROUND
Talc slurry pleurodesis (TSP) prevents recurrence of symptomatic malignant pleural effusion (MPE) in 71% to 78% patients. Nonexpansile lung (NEL) frequently accounts for TSP failure but is often occult predrainage, impairing selection of patients. NEL is associated with high pleural elastance (P EL ), but technical limitations have hampered the development of P EL as a predictive NEL marker. We performed a single-center, randomized, controlled, open-label feasibility trial of EDIT (elastance-directed indwelling pleural catheter or TSP) management, using a novel digital manometer and a new definition of high P EL .
METHODS
Patients with symptomatic MPE were randomized 1:1 between EDIT and standard care (TSP). EDIT involved P EL assessment during large-volume thoracentesis; patients with high P EL (maximum P EL sustained over 250 mL [MaxP EL250 ] ≥ 14.5 cm H 2 O/L) were allocated to immediately receive an indwelling pleural catheter; the remainder underwent immediate drain placement for TSP. The primary outcome measure was recruitment feasibility, defined a priori as 30 patients over 12 months. Secondary outcomes included safety, technical reliability, and the aspiration volume required to detect high P EL . The accuracy of the P EL definition for NEL was analyzed post hoc.
RESULTS
Thirty-one patients were randomized (one allocation failure) over 12 months. P EL assessment (mean duration, 33 minutes) was successful in 13 of 15 patients (87%). No directly attributable serious adverse events occurred. High P EL was detected in seven of 13 patients (54%), associated with 100% sensitivity and 67% specificity for NEL, and was first detected at a median volume of 325 mL (range, 250-800 mL).
CONCLUSIONS
A phase 3 trial testing the effect of EDIT management on symptomatic MPE recurrence following TSP is feasible.

1794,31888701,"Zwakala Ndoda: a cluster and individually randomized trial aimed at improving testing, linkage, and adherence to treatment for hard-to reach men in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa.","BACKGROUND
Men in sub-Saharan Africa are less likely than women to get tested for HIV, less likely to present for treatment, less likely to be maintained in treatment, more likely to have detectable viral load, more likely to transmit HIV with unprotected intercourse, and more likely to progress to AIDS and die sooner from HIV. The ultimate objective of this research is to provide evidence-based strategies to improve HIV testing and treatment of HIV-infected men.
METHODS
This study is being conducted in the Greater Edendale Area and Vulindlela region in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa. It is a two-stage design of a cluster-randomized trial and an individual randomized trial to test how structural and individual-level interventions address the demand-side factors that affect HIV testing and treatment for hard-to reach, high-risk men. It combines male-focused mobilization, community-based mobile HIV testing services, and a small incentive to determine if the strategies singly and in combination can result in more men diagnosed with HIV, and more men linked to and maintained in care with undetectable viral load.
DISCUSSION
A priority for sub-Sahara Africa is developing and evaluating novel and cost-effective strategies for identifying hard-to-reach groups such as men, linking them to HIV testing and care services, and maintaining them in care to the point of viral suppression. We propose a combination prevention intervention that addresses men's individual, interpersonal, and structural barriers to testing and care. This includes male-led mobilization to encourage uptake of testing and treatment, male-focused testing venues, male-only counselors, developing counseling models that are flexible and responsive to men, and strategies for adhering to clinic visits without missing work and navigating the healthcare system. By thoughtfully combining male-focused mobilization, and testing and addressing some of the barriers to male engagement with health facilities, this study hopes to add to the growing evidence base about how to reach, test, link, and maintain a hard-to-reach group such as men in HIV treatment and care services.

1795,31886216,The Efficacy of Cognitive Training for Elderly Chinese Individuals with Mild Cognitive Impairment.,"The age of the population is shifting toward the elderly range, which may lead to an increased risk of mild cognitive impairment (MCI). The aims of this study are to evaluate the cognitive function in elderly people using the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA), to identify the relationship between cognitive function and different characteristics, and to evaluate the efficacy of the intervention after six months of cognitive training. In this study, we included 2886 subjects aged ≧60 years in the baseline survey, and 140 subjects with MCI who participated in the baseline survey were randomly divided into an intervention group ( N = 70) and a control group ( N = 70). The control group was not provided any intervention measures, and the intervention group was administered cognitive training. The education level, monthly income, sleep time, exercise time, reading times, and time spent engaging in community activities and performing housework were positively correlated with MoCA scores, but age was negatively correlated with MoCA scores. The total MoCA score of the intervention group increased from 19.77 ± 2.24 points to 21.09 ± 2.20 points after six months of cognitive training, but the score of the control group decreased from 20.41 ± 2.10 points to 19.17 ± 2.57 points. The two-way repeated-measures ANOVA revealed a very significant effect of the interaction between time and cognitive training on the total MoCA score. Seventeen participants in the intervention group improved to normal levels, and no participants progressed to dementia after six months of cognitive training. Thus, the efficacy of the intervention was statistically significant. Our study concludes that older age is associated with a cognitive decline. Factors that are more likely to protect against cognitive decline included a higher education level and monthly income, sufficient sleep time, regular physical exercise and reading, frequently engaging in community activities, and continuing to perform housework. Moreover, the cognitive training intervention is effective and may help to decrease the deterioration of cognitive function in patients with MCI, and the interaction between intervention time and cognitive training significantly improves cognitive function.",2019,"The total MoCA score of the intervention group increased from 19.77 ± 2.24 points to 21.09 ± 2.20 points after six months of cognitive training, but the score of the control group decreased from 20.41 ± 2.10 points to 19.17 ± 2.57 points.","['Elderly Chinese Individuals with Mild Cognitive Impairment', '2886 subjects aged ≧60 years in the baseline survey, and 140 subjects with MCI who participated in the baseline survey', 'elderly people using the']","['Cognitive Training', 'Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA', 'cognitive training', 'cognitive training intervention']","['total MoCA score', 'cognitive function', 'deterioration of cognitive function', 'normal levels', 'education level, monthly income, sleep time, exercise time, reading times, and time spent engaging in community activities and performing housework']","[{'cui': 'C0001792', 'cui_str': 'Elderly'}, {'cui': 'C0152035', 'cui_str': 'Chinese'}, {'cui': 'C0237401', 'cui_str': 'Individual (person)'}, {'cui': 'C1270972', 'cui_str': 'Mild Neurocognitive Disorder'}, {'cui': 'C0439234', 'cui_str': 'year (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0282121', 'cui_str': 'Baseline Survey'}, {'cui': 'C4319553', 'cui_str': '140 (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0560005', 'cui_str': 'millicurie'}]","[{'cui': 'C1868940', 'cui_str': 'Cognitive training'}, {'cui': 'C3496286'}]","[{'cui': 'C0439810', 'cui_str': 'Total (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C4721272', 'cui_str': 'Montreal cognitive assessment score'}, {'cui': 'C0392335', 'cui_str': 'Cognitive functions (observable entity)'}, {'cui': 'C0205307', 'cui_str': 'Normal (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0456079', 'cui_str': 'Level (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0013621', 'cui_str': 'Education'}, {'cui': 'C0332177', 'cui_str': 'Monthly (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0021162', 'cui_str': 'Income'}, {'cui': 'C0424522', 'cui_str': 'Asleep (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C1632851', 'cui_str': 'Times'}, {'cui': 'C0439587', 'cui_str': 'Exercise time (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0425152', 'cui_str': 'Engaged to be married (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C0009462', 'cui_str': 'Community'}, {'cui': 'C0441655', 'cui_str': 'Activity (observable entity)'}, {'cui': 'C0884358', 'cui_str': 'Performed'}, {'cui': 'C1571726', 'cui_str': 'Doing housework (observable entity)'}]",2886.0,0.0150528,"The total MoCA score of the intervention group increased from 19.77 ± 2.24 points to 21.09 ± 2.20 points after six months of cognitive training, but the score of the control group decreased from 20.41 ± 2.10 points to 19.17 ± 2.57 points.","[{'ForeName': 'Zhenren', 'Initials': 'Z', 'LastName': 'Peng', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Occupational and Environmental Health, School of Public Health, Guangxi Medical University, Nanning 530021, China.'}, {'ForeName': 'Hu', 'Initials': 'H', 'LastName': 'Jiang', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Occupational and Environmental Health, School of Public Health, Guangxi Medical University, Nanning 530021, China.'}, {'ForeName': 'Xiaomin', 'Initials': 'X', 'LastName': 'Wang', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Epidemiology and Health Statistics, School of Public Health, Guangxi Medical University, Nanning 530021, China.'}, {'ForeName': 'Kaiyong', 'Initials': 'K', 'LastName': 'Huang', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Occupational and Environmental Health, School of Public Health, Guangxi Medical University, Nanning 530021, China.'}, {'ForeName': 'Yukun', 'Initials': 'Y', 'LastName': 'Zuo', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Occupational and Environmental Health, School of Public Health, Guangxi Medical University, Nanning 530021, China.'}, {'ForeName': 'Xiangmin', 'Initials': 'X', 'LastName': 'Wu', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Occupational and Environmental Health, School of Public Health, Guangxi Medical University, Nanning 530021, China.'}, {'ForeName': 'Abu S', 'Initials': 'AS', 'LastName': 'Abdullah', 'Affiliation': 'Global Health Research Center, Duke Kunshan University, Kunshan 215316, China.'}, {'ForeName': 'Li', 'Initials': 'L', 'LastName': 'Yang', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Occupational and Environmental Health, School of Public Health, Guangxi Medical University, Nanning 530021, China.'}]",BioMed research international,['10.1155/2019/4347281']
1796,31446213,Patient-reported outcomes in patients with a germline BRCA mutation and HER2-negative metastatic breast cancer receiving olaparib versus chemotherapy in the OlympiAD trial.,"BACKGROUND
The phase III OlympiAD study (NCT02000622) showed a statistically significant progression-free survival benefit with olaparib versus chemotherapy treatment of physician's choice (TPC) in patients with a germline BRCA mutation and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative metastatic breast cancer. From this study, we report the effect of olaparib on health-related quality of life (HRQoL).
METHODS
Patients were randomised 2:1 to olaparib monotherapy (300 mg twice daily) or single-agent TPC. The primary HRQoL end-point was mean change from baseline in the two-item global health status/QoL score determined from patient-completed European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire Core 30-item module (EORTC QLQ-C30) questionnaires and assessed using a mixed model for repeated measures. Symptoms and functioning domains, best overall response and time to deterioration of QoL were also evaluated.
RESULTS
Overall questionnaire compliance rates were 93.2% for olaparib and 76.3% for TPC. Between-treatment global health status/QoL comparison showed a significant improvement in the olaparib arm versus the TPC arm, with mean change of 3.9 (standard deviation 1.2) versus -3.6 (2.2), a difference of 7.5 points (95% confidence interval [CI]: 2.48, 12.44; P = 0.0035). A higher proportion of patients in the olaparib arm showed a best overall response of 'improvement' in global health status/QoL (33.7% vs 13.4%). Median time to global health status/QoL deterioration was not reached in olaparib patients and was 15.3 months for TPC patients (hazard ratio: 0.44 [95% CI: 0.25, 0.77]; P = 0.004). For EORTC QLQ-C30 symptoms and functioning subscales, only nausea/vomiting symptom score was worse in the olaparib arm than in the TPC arm (across all visits compared with baseline).

1797,31437754,"Adverse events associated with encorafenib plus binimetinib in the COLUMBUS study: incidence, course and management.","BACKGROUND
Dual inhibition of the mitogen-activated protein kinase pathway with BRAF/MEK inhibitor (BRAFi/MEKi) therapy is a standard treatment for BRAFV600-mutant metastatic melanoma and has historically been associated with grade III pyrexia or photosensitivity depending on the combination used. The objective of this study was to fully describe adverse events from the COLUMBUS study evaluating the most recent BRAF/MEK inhibitor combination encorafenib+binimetinib.
PATIENTS AND METHODS
Patients with locally advanced, unresectable or metastatic BRAFV600-mutant melanoma were randomised to receive encorafenib 450 mg once daily plus binimetinib 45 mg twice daily, encorafenib 300 mg once daily or vemurafenib 960 mg twice daily. Adverse events that represent known effects of available BRAFi and/or MEKi were evaluated.
RESULTS
The safety population included a total of 570 patients (encorafenib+binimetinib = 192; encorafenib = 192; vemurafenib = 186). Median duration of exposure was longer with encorafenib+binimetinib (51 weeks) than with encorafenib (31 weeks) or vemurafenib (27 weeks). Common BRAFi/MEKi toxicities with encorafenib+binimetinib were generally manageable, reversible and infrequently associated with discontinuation. Pyrexia was less frequent with encorafenib+binimetinib (18%) and encorafenib (16%) than with vemurafenib (30%) and occurred later in the course of therapy with encorafenib+binimetinib (median time to first onset: 85 days versus 2.5 days and 19 days, respectively). The incidence of photosensitivity was lower with encorafenib+binimetinib (5%) and encorafenib (4%) than with vemurafenib (30%). The incidence of serous retinopathy was higher with encorafenib+binimetinib (20%) than with encorafenib (2%) or vemurafenib (2%), but no patients discontinued encorafenib+binimetinib because of this event.
CONCLUSION

1798,31886194,Effect of Ajwa Dates Consumption to Inhibit the Progression of Preeclampsia Threats on Mean Arterial Pressure and Roll-Over Test.,"Background
Preeclampsia is the major problem and the main leading cause of fetal and maternal mortality worldwide. The early prediction of preeclampsia in pregnant women is required to prevent the occurrence of preeclampsia. The mean arterial pressure (MAP) and roll-over test (ROT) are the combination of measurement which can be used to predict preeclampsia. On the contrary, Ajwa dates were reported to have an enormous activity which contributes to its role in improving health conditions. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the effect of daily consumption of seven Ajwa dates on prevention of preeclampsia, through MAP and ROT changes.
Methods
Forty pregnant women ( n = 40) were randomly assigned into the control group ( n = 10) and the intervention group which received a daily intake of Ajwa dates ( n = 30). The MAP and ROT were assessed before and after the 8-week intervention period.
Results
The intervention group showed the significant reduction in MAP and ROT following the 8-week intervention period ( p < 0.05).
Conclusion
Daily consumption of seven Ajwa dates has a remarkable potential to decrease the MAP and ROT in pregnant women at risk of developing preeclampsia, and thus, it can contribute to prevent the development of preeclampsia.",2019,"The intervention group showed the significant reduction in MAP and ROT following the 8-week intervention period ( p < 0.05).

1799,31888595,Active learning through discussion: ICAP framework for education in health professions.,"BACKGROUND
The ICAP framework based on cognitive science posits four modes of cognitive engagement: Interactive, Constructive, Active, and Passive. Focusing on the wide applicability of discussion as interactive engagement in medical education, we investigated the effect of discussion when it was preceded by self-study and further investigated the effect of generating questions before discussions.
METHODS
This study was conducted in the second semester of 2018 and was participated in by 129 students majoring in health professions, including medicine, dentistry, veterinary medicine, and nursing. The students were assigned to four different trial groups and were asked to fill out a Subjective Mental Effort Questionnaire after completing each session. Their performance in posttest scores was analyzed using Bonferroni test, and mental effort was analyzed using mediation analysis.
RESULTS
These results indicated that the self-study and question group had the highest performance and that the lecture and summary group had the lowest performance when comparing the total score. Using the analysis of mental effort, it was confirmed that the relationship between different study conditions and post-test performance was mediated by mental effort during test.
CONCLUSIONS
Our findings support the ICAP framework and provide practical implications for medical education, representing the fact that students learn more when they are involved in active learning activities, such as self-study and question generation, prior to discussions.",2019,"Using the analysis of mental effort, it was confirmed that the relationship between different study conditions and post-test performance was mediated by mental effort during test.

1800,32111479,"The effect of antioxidants on male factor infertility: the Males, Antioxidants, and Infertility (MOXI) randomized clinical trial.","OBJECTIVE
To determine whether antioxidants improve male fertility, as measured by semen parameters and DNA fragmentation at 3 months and pregnancy resulting in live birth after up to 6 months of treatment, among couples with male factor infertility.
DESIGN
Multicenter, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial with an internal pilot study.
SETTING
Nine fertility centers in the United States from December 2015 to December 2018.
PATIENT(S)
Men (N = 174) with sperm concentration ≤15 million/mL, motility ≤40%, normal morphology ≤4%, or DNA fragmentation >25%, and female partners who were ovulatory, ≤40 years old, and had documented tubal patency.
INTERVENTION(S)
Males randomly assigned to receive an antioxidant formulation (n = 85) containing 500 mg of vitamin C, 400 mg of vitamin E, 0.20 mg of selenium, 1,000 mg of l-carnitine, 20 mg of zinc, 1,000 μg of folic acid, 10 mg of lycopene daily, or placebo (n = 86). Treatment lasted for a minimum of 3 months and maximum of 6 months, and couples attempted to conceive naturally during the first 3 months and with clomiphene citrate with intrauterine insemination of the female partner in months 4 through 6.
MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE(S)
Primary outcome was live birth; secondary outcomes included pregnancy within 6 months of treatment. For the internal pilot, the primary outcomes were semen parameters and sperm DNA fragmentation index after 3 months of treatment.
RESULT(S)
In the Males, Antioxidants, and Infertility (MOXI) study, after 3 months of treatment, the change in sperm concentration differed between the antioxidant group (median -4.0 [interquartile range-12.0, 5.7] million/mL) and placebo group (+2.4 [-9.0, 15.5] million/mL). However, there were no statistically significant differences between the two groups for changes in sperm morphology, motility, or DNA fragmentation. Among the 66 oligospermic men at randomization, sperm concentration did not differ at 3 months between the antioxidant and control groups: 8.5 (4.8, 15.0) million/mL versus 15.0 (6.0, 24.0) million/mL. Of the 75 asthenospermic men, motility did not differ at 3 months: 34% ± 16.3% versus 36.4% ± 15.8%. Among the 44 men with high DNA fragmentation, DNA fragmentation did not differ at 3 months: 29.5% (21.6%, 36.5%) versus 28.0% (20.6%, 36.4%). In the entire cohort, cumulative live birth did not differ at 6 months between the antioxidant and placebo groups: 15% versus 24%.
CONCLUSION(S)
Antioxidants do not improve semen parameters or DNA integrity among men with male factor infertility. Although limited by sample size, this study suggests that antioxidant treatment of the male partner does not improve in vivo pregnancy or live-birth rates.

1801,30851191,Conjunctivitis in dupilumab clinical trials.,"BACKGROUND
Dupilumab blocks the shared receptor component for interleukin (IL)-4 and IL-13. It is approved in the U.S.A. for patients aged ≥ 12 years with moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis (AD) uncontrolled by topical prescription medicines or who cannot use topical medicines, for patients in Japan whose AD is uncontrolled with existing therapies, for patients with moderate-to-severe AD in Europe who are candidates for systemic therapy and for patients aged ≥ 12 years for maintenance treatment of moderate-to-severe asthma uncontrolled with their current medicines. AD trials have reported increased incidence of conjunctivitis for dupilumab vs. placebo.
OBJECTIVES
To characterize further the occurrence and risk factors of conjunctivitis in dupilumab clinical trials.
METHODS
We evaluated randomized placebo-controlled trials of dupilumab in AD (n = 2629), asthma (n = 2876), chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) (n = 60) and eosinophilic oesophagitis (EoE) (n = 47).
RESULTS
In most AD trials, dupilumab-treated patients had higher conjunctivitis incidence than placebo controls. Higher baseline AD severity and previous history of conjunctivitis were associated with increased conjunctivitis incidence. Conjunctivitis was mostly mild to moderate. Most cases recovered or resolved during the treatment period; two patients permanently discontinued dupilumab due to conjunctivitis or keratitis. Common treatments included ophthalmic corticosteroids, antibiotics, and antihistamines or mast cell stabilizers. Most cases were diagnosed by the investigators. In asthma and CRSwNP trials, the incidence of conjunctivitis was lower for both dupilumab and placebo than in AD trials; dupilumab did not increase the incidence compared with placebo. In the EoE trial, no patients had conjunctivitis.
CONCLUSIONS
Conjunctivitis was more frequent with dupilumab treatment in most AD trials. In dupilumab trials in other type 2 diseases, incidence of conjunctivitis was overall very low, and was similar for dupilumab and placebo. In AD, the incidence of conjunctivitis was associated with AD severity and prior history of conjunctivitis. The aetiology and treatment of conjunctivitis in dupilumab-treated patients require further study. What's already known about this topic? Ocular disorders, including allergic conjunctivitis, are common in patients with atopic dermatitis (AD). In most dupilumab AD trials, dupilumab-treated patients had higher conjunctivitis incidence than those receiving placebo. Most cases were mild to moderate and recovered or were recovering during study treatment; study treatment discontinuation due to conjunctivitis was rare. Conjunctivitis incidence was very low and similar for dupilumab and placebo in clinical trials in asthma, chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps and eosinophilic oesophagitis. What does this study add? This analysis confirms and extends the results of the individual clinical trials. Baseline disease-related factors, including AD severity, prior conjunctivitis history and certain biomarkers (thymus and activation-regulated chemokine, IgE, eosinophils), were associated with increased incidence of conjunctivitis.

1802,31781724,Physical Function and Strength in Relation to Inflammation in Older Adults with Obesity and Increased Cardiometabolic Risk.,"BACKGROUND
Inflammation is implicated in functional decline and the development of disability in aging. This study aimed to investigate the association of inflammation with physical function and muscle strength in older adults with obesity and increased cardiometabolic risk.
DESIGN
In baseline assessments from the CROSSROADS randomized controlled trial, serum interleukin-6 (IL-6), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNFα) and C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) were assayed in 163 older adults (37% males, 24% African American, BMI 34±3, age 70±5yrs) with hypertension, dyslipidemia and/or diabetes. Physical function was assessed by six-minute walk test (6MWT), chair sit-and-reach (CSR), hand-grip and knee-extension strength; specific-strength as muscle strength/mass ratio. Analyses included ANCOVA and multiple linear regression adjusted for thigh skeletal muscle (MRI), arm lean mass (DXA) and moderate-to-vigorous intensity physical activity (MVPA; accelerometry).
RESULTS
Higher hs-CRP (p<0.01) and IL-6 (p=0.07) were associated with lower 6MWT and CSR, respectively. A composite inflammation score combining all 3 inflammatory markers showed the strongest inverse association with 6MWT (p<0.01). MVPA moderated associations such that amongst participants who engaged in low MVPA, 6MWT distances and CSR scores were significantly lower in those with high IL-6 and TNFα (p<0.05), respectively. In participants with high MVPA, higher hs-CRP (p<0.05) and TNFα (p=0.07) were associated with poorer upper-extremity specific-strength.
CONCLUSIONS
Chronic inflammation was associated with poorer physical function and specific strength in older adults with obesity and increased cardiometabolic risk. This association was strongest in participants with multiple elevated inflammatory markers. Physical activity levels below current recommendations mitigated the deleterious effects of inflammation on lower body mobility, underscoring the benefits of exercise for preserving physical function with age.",2019,"In participants with high MVPA, higher hs-CRP (p<0.05) and TNFα (p=0.07) were associated with poorer upper-extremity specific-strength.

1803,31475391,Health visitors' competences before and after implementing the newborn behavioral observations (NBO) system in a community setting: A cluster randomised study.,"OBJECTIVE
To explore differences between health visitors' competences before and after implementing the newborn behavioral observations (NBO) system in four Danish municipalities.
DESIGN AND SAMPLE
In a cluster randomized design, 56 and 55 health visitors were enrolled in the intervention and comparison districts. Only health visitors from the intervention district received the NBO education programme.
MEASUREMENTS
Data from self-administered questionnaires on heath visitors' intention, self-efficacy, knowledge, and observation skills were collected before and after NBO training. Data were analysed using descriptive and multivariable analyses.
RESULTS
Health visitors reported high levels of intention, self-efficacy, and knowledge working with early parent-infant relationships in both groups at baseline. After implementing NBO, the intervention health visitors reported a significantly higher level of knowledge of infant self-regulation than the comparison group. No significant differences were found in health visitors' level of intention and self-efficacy working with early parent-infant relationships, or in health visitors' observation skills assessing the quality of early relationship.
CONCLUSIONS
Health visitors attending the NBO education and working with NBO in clinical practise had a significantly higher level of knowledge of infant self-regulation.

1807,30318931,The feasibility of an automatic prompting system in assisting people with traumatic brain injury in cooking tasks.,"Purpose: Individuals with traumatic brain injury (TBI) often experience difficulties in performing kitchen-related sequencing tasks due to cognitive deficits. The primary aim of this study is to examine the feasibility of a context-aware automatic prompting system in assisting individuals with TBI in multi-step cooking tasks. Method: Sixteen individuals with TBI participated in the study. A randomized cross-over design was used to compare the automatic prompting method with a conventional user-controlled method through a tablet device. Participant performance under each prompting method was assessed using the Performance Assessment of Self-Care Skills in terms of independence, safety, and adequacy. Subjective workload and qualitative feedback were also collected. Results: The automatic method, when compared with the user-controlled method, significantly decreased the amount of external assistance required by participants, received higher ratings in user perceived ease-of-use, and was considered less stressful for participants. However, the user-controlled method showed strengths in offering participants more flexibility in terms of controlling on the timing of prompts. Conclusions: The results provided insight into the potential benefits and user perceptions of a context-aware prompting system. The information could contribute to the future development of advanced prompting technology for people with cognitive impairments in completing sequential tasks.Implications for RehabilitationFor people with traumatic brain injury, the context-aware prompting method showed advantages in improving user performance, receiving better ratings on ease-of-use, and decreasing stress levels, compared to the user-controlled prompting method in completing multi-step cooking tasks.Future prompting systems for people with cognitive impairments may allow users to control the pace of prompting and use sensing information as back-up assistance in critical situations. In this way, the system may help users monitor their actions and offer confirmations, especially at steps with safety concerns, thus enhancing the sense of security and reducing the stress from self-monitoring.",2019,"The automatic method, when compared with the user-controlled method, significantly decreased the amount of external assistance required by participants, received higher ratings in user perceived ease-of-use, and was considered less stressful for participants.","['Individuals with traumatic brain injury (TBI', 'Sixteen individuals with TBI participated in the study', 'assisting people with traumatic brain injury in cooking tasks', 'people with cognitive impairments', 'assisting individuals with TBI in multi-step cooking tasks']","['Rehabilitation', 'automatic prompting system']","['amount of external assistance', 'Subjective workload and qualitative feedback']","[{'cui': 'C0237401', 'cui_str': 'Individual (person)'}, {'cui': 'C0876926', 'cui_str': 'TBI (Traumatic Brain Injury)'}, {'cui': 'C3715157', 'cui_str': '16'}, {'cui': 'C0557651', 'cui_str': 'Study (environment)'}, {'cui': 'C1269765', 'cui_str': 'Assists (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0335326', 'cui_str': 'Cookery'}, {'cui': 'C0338656', 'cui_str': 'Cognitive Dysfunction'}, {'cui': 'C3266262', 'cui_str': 'Multi'}, {'cui': 'C1261552', 'cui_str': 'Step'}]","[{'cui': 'C1306847', 'cui_str': 'Rehabilitation - specialty'}, {'cui': 'C0205554', 'cui_str': 'Automated (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0449913', 'cui_str': 'System (attribute)'}]","[{'cui': 'C0205101', 'cui_str': 'External (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0439655', 'cui_str': 'Subjective observation'}, {'cui': 'C0085122', 'cui_str': 'Work Load'}, {'cui': 'C0205556', 'cui_str': 'Qualitative (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0015744', 'cui_str': 'Feedback'}]",16.0,0.0254196,"The automatic method, when compared with the user-controlled method, significantly decreased the amount of external assistance required by participants, received higher ratings in user perceived ease-of-use, and was considered less stressful for participants.","[{'ForeName': 'Jing', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Wang', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Rehabilitation Science and Technology School of Health and Rehabilitation Sciences, University of Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh, PA, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Harshal P', 'Initials': 'HP', 'LastName': 'Mahajan', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Rehabilitation Science and Technology School of Health and Rehabilitation Sciences, University of Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh, PA, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Pamela E', 'Initials': 'PE', 'LastName': 'Toto', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Occupational Therapy School of Health and Rehabilitation Sciences, 6425 Penn Avenue, Suite 400 Pittsburgh, PA 15206, University of Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh, PA, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Michael P', 'Initials': 'MP', 'LastName': 'McCue', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Rehabilitation Science and Technology School of Health and Rehabilitation Sciences, University of Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh, PA, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Dan', 'Initials': 'D', 'LastName': 'Ding', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Rehabilitation Science and Technology School of Health and Rehabilitation Sciences, University of Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh, PA, USA.'}]",Disability and rehabilitation.

1808,31099946,Closed loop control in adolescents and children during winter sports: Use of the Tandem Control-IQ AP system.,"OBJECTIVE
Artificial pancreas (AP) systems have been shown to improve glycemic control throughout the day and night in adults, adolescents, and children. However, AP testing remains limited during intense and prolonged exercise in adolescents and children. We present the performance of the Tandem Control-IQ AP system in adolescents and children during a winter ski camp study, where high altitude, low temperature, prolonged intense activity, and stress challenged glycemic control.
METHODS
In a randomized controlled trial, 24 adolescents (ages 13-18 years) and 24 school-aged children (6-12 years) with Type 1 diabetes (T1D) participated in a 48 hours ski camp (∼5 hours skiing/day) at three sites: Wintergreen, VA; Kirkwood, and Breckenridge, CO. Study participants were randomized 1:1 at each site. The control group used remote monitored sensor-augmented pump (RM-SAP), and the experimental group used the t: slim X2 with Control-IQ Technology AP system. All subjects were remotely monitored 24 hours per day by study staff.
RESULTS
The Control-IQ system improved percent time within range (70-180 mg/dL) over the entire camp duration: 66.4 ± 16.4 vs 53.9 ± 24.8%; P = .01 in both children and adolescents. The AP system was associated with a significantly lower average glucose based on continuous glucose monitor data: 161 ± 29.9 vs 176.8 ± 36.5 mg/dL; P = .023. There were no differences between groups for hypoglycemia exposure or carbohydrate interventions. There were no adverse events.
CONCLUSIONS
The use of the Control-IQ AP improved glycemic control and safely reduced exposure to hyperglycemia relative to RM-SAP in pediatric patients with T1D during prolonged intensive winter sport activities.",2019,The AP system was associated with a significantly lower average glucose based on continuous glucose monitor data: 161 ± 29.9 vs 176.8 ± 36.5 mg/dL;

1809,31935026,Effect of a Behavioral Intervention to Increase Vegetable Consumption on Cancer Progression Among Men With Early-Stage Prostate Cancer: The MEAL Randomized Clinical Trial.,"Importance
Guidelines endorsing vegetable-enriched diets to improve outcomes for prostate cancer survivors are based on expert opinion, preclinical studies, and observational data.
Objective
To determine the effect of a behavioral intervention that increased vegetable intake on cancer progression in men with early-stage prostate cancer.
Design, Setting, and Participants
The Men's Eating and Living (MEAL) Study (CALGB 70807 [Alliance]) was a randomized clinical trial conducted at 91 US urology and medical oncology clinics that enrolled 478 men aged 50 to 80 years with biopsy-proven prostate adenocarcinoma (International Society of Urological Pathology grade group = 1 in those <70 years and ≤2 in those ≥70 years), stage cT2a or less, and serum prostate-specific antigen (PSA) level less than 10 ng/mL. Enrollment occurred from January 2011 to August 2015; 24-month follow-up occurred from January 2013 to August 2017.
Interventions
Patients were randomized to a counseling behavioral intervention by telephone promoting consumption of 7 or more daily vegetable servings (MEAL intervention; n = 237) or a control group, which received written information about diet and prostate cancer (n = 241).
Main Outcomes and Measures
The primary outcome was time to progression; progression was defined as PSA level of 10 ng/mL or greater, PSA doubling time of less than 3 years, or upgrading (defined as increase in tumor volume or grade) on follow-up prostate biopsy.
Results
Among 478 patients randomized (mean [SD] age, 64 [7] years; mean [SD] PSA level, 4.9 [2.1] ng/mL), 443 eligible patients (93%) were included in the primary analysis. There were 245 progression events (intervention: 124; control: 121). There were no significant differences in time to progression (unadjusted hazards ratio, 0.96 [95% CI, 0.75 to 1.24]; adjusted hazard ratio, 0.97 [95% CI, 0.76 to 1.25]). The 24-month Kaplan-Meier progression-free percentages were 43.5% [95% CI, 36.5% to 50.6%] and 41.4% [95% CI, 34.3% to 48.7%] for the intervention and control groups, respectively (difference, 2.1% [95% CI, -8.1% to 12.2%]).
Conclusions and Relevance
Among men with early-stage prostate cancer managed with active surveillance, a behavioral intervention that increased vegetable consumption did not significantly reduce the risk of prostate cancer progression. The findings do not support use of this intervention to decrease prostate cancer progression in this population, although the study may have been underpowered to identify a clinically important difference.

1810,30801889,Vaginoscopy Against Standard Treatment: a randomised controlled trial.,"OBJECTIVE
To evaluate whether vaginoscopy or standard hysteroscopy was more successful in the outpatient setting.
DESIGN
Randomised controlled multicentre trial.
SETTING
Outpatient hysteroscopy clinics at two UK hospitals.
POPULATION
1597 women aged 16 or older undergoing an outpatient hysteroscopy.
METHODS
Women were allocated to vaginoscopy or standard hysteroscopy using third party randomisation stratified by menopausal status with no blinding of participants or clinicians.
MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES
The primary outcome was 'success', a composite endpoint defined as: a complete procedure, no complications, a level of pain acceptable to the patient, and no sign of genitourinary tract infection 2 weeks after the procedure.
RESULTS
Vaginoscopy was significantly more successful than standard hysteroscopy [647/726 (89%) versus 621/734 (85%), respectively; relative risk (RR) 1.05, 95% CI 1.01-1.10; P = 0.01]. The median time taken to complete vaginoscopy was 2 minutes compared with 3 minutes for standard hysteroscopy (P < 0.001). The mean pain score was 42.7 for vaginoscopy, which was significantly less than standard hysteroscopy 46.4 (P = 0.02). Operative complications occurred in five women receiving vaginoscopy and 19 women receiving standard hysteroscopy (RR 0.26, 95% CI 0.10-0.69).
CONCLUSIONS
Vaginoscopy is quicker to perform, less painful, and more successful than standard hysteroscopy and therefore should be considered the technique of choice for outpatient hysteroscopy.

1812,31376274,Efficacy of a Self-Regulation-Based Electronic and Mobile Health Intervention Targeting an Active Lifestyle in Adults Having Type 2 Diabetes and in Adults Aged 50 Years or Older: Two Randomized Controlled Trials.,"BACKGROUND
Adopting an active lifestyle plays a key role in the prevention and management of chronic diseases such as type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Web-based interventions are able to alter health behaviors and show stronger effects when they are informed by a behavior change theory. MyPlan 2.0 is a fully automated electronic health (eHealth) and mobile health (mHealth) intervention targeting physical activity (PA) and sedentary behavior (SB) based on the Health Action Process Approach (HAPA).
OBJECTIVE
This study aimed to test the short-term effect of MyPlan 2.0 in altering levels of PA and SB and in changing personal determinants of behavior in adults with T2DM and in adults aged ≥50 years.
METHODS
The study comprised two randomized controlled trials (RCTs) with an identical design. RCT 1 was conducted with adults with T2DM. RCT 2 was performed in adults aged ≥50 years. Data were collected via face-to-face assessments. The participants decided either to increase their level of PA or to decrease their level of SB. The participants were randomly allocated with a 2:1 ratio to the intervention group or the waiting-list control group. They were not blinded for their group allocation. The participants in the intervention group were instructed to go through MyPlan 2.0, comprising 5 sessions with an interval of 1 week between each session. The primary outcomes were objectively measured and self-reported PA (ie, light PA, moderate-to-vigorous PA, total PA, number of steps, and domain-specific [eg, transport-related] PA) and SB (ie, sitting time, number of breaks from sitting time, and length of sitting bouts). Secondary outcomes were self-reported behavioral determinants for PA and SB (eg, self-efficacy). Separate linear mixed models were performed to analyze the effects of MyPlan 2.0 in the two samples.
RESULTS
In RCT 1 (n=54), the PA intervention group showed, in contrast to the control group, a decrease in self-reported time spent sitting (P=.09) and an increase in accelerometer-measured moderate (P=.05) and moderate-to-vigorous PA (P=.049). The SB intervention group displayed an increase in accelerometer-assessed breaks from sedentary time in comparison with the control group (P=.005). A total of 14 participants of RCT 1 dropped out. In RCT 2 (n=63), the PA intervention group showed an increase for self-reported total PA in comparison with the control group (P=.003). Furthermore, in contrast to the control group, the SB intervention group decreased their self-reported time spent sitting (P=.08) and increased their accelerometer-assessed moderate (P=.06) and moderate-to-vigorous PA (P=.07). A total of 8 participants of RCT 2 dropped out.
CONCLUSIONS
For both the samples, the HAPA-based eHealth and mHealth intervention, MyPlan 2.0, was able to improve only some of the primary outcomes.

1813,31256137,Feasibility of Three Novel Forms of Passive Exercise in a Multisensory Environment in Vulnerable Institutionalized Older Adults with Dementia.,"BACKGROUND
Increasing physical activity levels in patients with dementia can reduce pathology severity and progression of the disease. However, physical activity programs can be challenging to adhere to for this vulnerable population. Three novel forms of passive exercise in a multisensory environment may be feasible alternatives for patients who can no longer be involved in physical activity.
OBJECTIVE
To determine the feasibility of three different forms of passive exercise in a multisensory environment in inactive institutionalized older adults with dementia.
METHODS
120 patients with dementia participated in this single blind randomized controlled trial (64.5% female, age 85.3±6.8 years Mini-Mental State Examination range 0-29). Ninety participants were randomly assigned to one of the three intervention groups: Therapeutic Motion Simulation (TMSim), Whole Body Vibration (WBV), and TMSim + WBV. Participants received 6 weeks of passive exercise, 4 sessions a week, 4 (WBV) to 12 (TMSim and TMSim + WBV) minutes per session. Feasibility of the novel forms of passive exercise was evaluated based on attendance, compliance, (proxy) experience scores, adverse events and drop-out rates.
RESULTS
On average 87.9% of the offered intervention sessions were attended. All three forms of passive exercise were well appreciated by the participants (7.3 on a scale from 0 to 10). Intervention related drop-out rates were reasonable (12.2%) and no serious adverse events occurred.
CONCLUSION

1814,31292197,GFR Slope as a Surrogate End Point for Kidney Disease Progression in Clinical Trials: A Meta-Analysis of Treatment Effects of Randomized Controlled Trials.,"BACKGROUND
Surrogate end points are needed to assess whether treatments are effective in the early stages of CKD. GFR decline leads to kidney failure, but regulators have not approved using differences in the change in GFR from the beginning to the end of a randomized, controlled trial as an end point in CKD because it is not clear whether small changes in the GFR slope will translate to clinical benefits.
METHODS
To assess the use of GFR slope as a surrogate end point for CKD progression, we performed a meta-analysis of 47 RCTs that tested 12 interventions in 60,620 subjects. We estimated treatment effects on GFR slope (mean difference in GFR slope between the randomized groups), for the total slope starting at baseline, chronic slope starting at 3 months after randomization, and on the clinical end point (doubling of serum creatinine, GFR<15 ml/min per 1.73 m 2 , or ESKD) for each study. We used Bayesian mixed-effects analyses to describe the association of treatment effects on GFR slope with the clinical end point and to test how well the GFR slope predicts a treatment's effect on the clinical end point.
RESULTS
Across all studies, the treatment effect on 3-year total GFR slope (median R 2 =0.97; 95% Bayesian credible interval [BCI], 0.78 to 1.00) and on the chronic slope ( R 2 0.96; 95% BCI, 0.63 to 1.00) accurately predicted treatment effects on the clinical end point. With a sufficient sample size, a treatment effect of 0.75 ml/min per 1.73 m 2 /yr or greater on total slope over 3 years or chronic slope predicts a clinical benefit on CKD progress with at least 96% probability.
CONCLUSIONS
With large enough sample sizes, GFR slope may be a viable surrogate for clinical end points in CKD RCTs.",2019,"Across all studies, the treatment effect on 3-year total GFR slope (median R 2 =0.97; 95% Bayesian credible interval [BCI], 0.78 to 1.00) and on the chronic slope ( R 2 0.96; 95% BCI, 0.63 to 1.00) accurately predicted treatment effects on the clinical end point.","['60,620 subjects']",[],"['3-year total GFR slope', 'GFR slope', 'chronic slope']",[],[],"[{'cui': 'C0439234', 'cui_str': 'year (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0439810', 'cui_str': 'Total (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0017654', 'cui_str': 'Glomerular Filtration Rate'}, {'cui': 'C0205191', 'cui_str': 'Chronic (qualifier value)'}]",,0.130743,"Across all studies, the treatment effect on 3-year total GFR slope (median R 2 =0.97; 95% Bayesian credible interval [BCI], 0.78 to 1.00) and on the chronic slope ( R 2 0.96; 95% BCI, 0.63 to 1.00) accurately predicted treatment effects on the clinical end point.","[{'ForeName': 'Lesley A', 'Initials': 'LA', 'LastName': 'Inker', 'Affiliation': 'Division of Nephrology and LInker@tuftsmedicalcenter.org.'}, {'ForeName': 'Hiddo J L', 'Initials': 'HJL', 'LastName': 'Heerspink', 'Affiliation': 'Departments of Clinical Pharmacy and Pharmacology and.'}, {'ForeName': 'Hocine', 'Initials': 'H', 'LastName': 'Tighiouart', 'Affiliation': 'The Institute for Clinical Research and Health Policy Studies, Tufts Medical Center, Boston, Massachusetts.'}, {'ForeName': 'Andrew S', 'Initials': 'AS', 'LastName': 'Levey', 'Affiliation': 'Division of Nephrology and.'}, {'ForeName': 'Josef', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Coresh', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Epidemiology, Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, Baltimore, Maryland.'}, {'ForeName': 'Ron T', 'Initials': 'RT', 'LastName': 'Gansevoort', 'Affiliation': 'Nephrology, University Medical Center Groningen, University of Groningen, Groningen, The Netherlands.'}, {'ForeName': 'Andrew L', 'Initials': 'AL', 'LastName': 'Simon', 'Affiliation': 'Division of Nephrology and.'}, {'ForeName': 'Jian', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Ying', 'Affiliation': 'Division of Epidemiology, Department of Internal Medicine, University of Utah, Salt Lake City, Utah.'}, {'ForeName': 'Gerald J', 'Initials': 'GJ', 'LastName': 'Beck', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Quantitative Health Sciences, Cleveland Clinic, Cleveland, Ohio.'}, {'ForeName': 'Christoph', 'Initials': 'C', 'LastName': 'Wanner', 'Affiliation': 'Division of Nephrology, University Hospital of Würzburg, Würzburg, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Jürgen', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Floege', 'Affiliation': 'Division of Nephrology, RWTH Aachen University, Aachen, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Philip Kam-Tao', 'Initials': 'PK', 'LastName': 'Li', 'Affiliation': 'Division of Nephrology, Prince of Wales Hospital, Chinese University of Hong Kong, Shatin, Hong Kong; LInker@tuftsmedicalcenter.org.'}, {'ForeName': 'Vlado', 'Initials': 'V', 'LastName': 'Perkovic', 'Affiliation': 'George Institute for Global Health, University of New South Wales, Sydney, Australia; and.'}, {'ForeName': 'Edward F', 'Initials': 'EF', 'LastName': 'Vonesh', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Preventive Medicine, Division of Biostatistics, Northwestern University, Chicago, Illinois.'}, {'ForeName': 'Tom', 'Initials': 'T', 'LastName': 'Greene', 'Affiliation': 'Division of Epidemiology, Department of Internal Medicine, University of Utah, Salt Lake City, Utah.'}]",Journal of the American Society of Nephrology : JASN,['10.1681/ASN.2019010007']
1815,31292198,Performance of GFR Slope as a Surrogate End Point for Kidney Disease Progression in Clinical Trials: A Statistical Simulation.,"BACKGROUND
Randomized trials of CKD treatments traditionally use clinical events late in CKD progression as end points. This requires costly studies with large sample sizes and long follow-up. Surrogate end points like GFR slope may speed up the evaluation of new therapies by enabling smaller studies with shorter follow-up.
METHODS
We used statistical simulations to identify trial situations where GFR slope provides increased statistical power compared with the clinical end point of doubling of serum creatinine or kidney failure. We simulated GFR trajectories based on data from 47 randomized treatment comparisons. We evaluated the sample size required for adequate statistical power based on GFR slopes calculated from baseline and from 3 months follow-up.
RESULTS
In most scenarios where the treatment has no acute effect, analyses of GFR slope provided similar or improved statistical power compared with the clinical end point, often allowing investigators to shorten follow-up by at least half while simultaneously reducing sample size. When patients' GFRs are higher, the power advantages of GFR slope increase. However, acute treatment effects within several months of randomization can increase the risk of false conclusions about therapies based on GFR slope. Care is needed in study design and analysis to avoid such false conclusions.
CONCLUSIONS
Use of GFR slope can substantially increase statistical power compared with the clinical end point, particularly when baseline GFR is high and there is no acute effect. The optimum GFR-based end point depends on multiple factors including the rate of GFR decline, type of treatment effect and study design.",2019,"In most scenarios where the treatment has no acute effect, analyses of GFR slope provided similar or improved statistical power compared with the clinical end point, often allowing investigators to shorten follow-up by at least half while simultaneously reducing sample size.",[],['CKD'],[],[],[],[],47.0,0.0888945,"In most scenarios where the treatment has no acute effect, analyses of GFR slope provided similar or improved statistical power compared with the clinical end point, often allowing investigators to shorten follow-up by at least half while simultaneously reducing sample size.","[{'ForeName': 'Tom', 'Initials': 'T', 'LastName': 'Greene', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Internal Medicine, University of Utah, Salt Lake City, Utah.'}, {'ForeName': 'Jian', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Ying', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Internal Medicine, University of Utah, Salt Lake City, Utah.'}, {'ForeName': 'Edward F', 'Initials': 'EF', 'LastName': 'Vonesh', 'Affiliation': 'Division of Biostatistics, Department of Preventive Medicine, Northwestern University, Chicago, Illinois.'}, {'ForeName': 'Hocine', 'Initials': 'H', 'LastName': 'Tighiouart', 'Affiliation': 'Institute for Clinical Research and Health Policy Studies and.'}, {'ForeName': 'Andrew S', 'Initials': 'AS', 'LastName': 'Levey', 'Affiliation': 'Division of Nephrology, Tufts Medical Center, Boston, Massachusetts.'}, {'ForeName': 'Josef', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Coresh', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Epidemiology, Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, Baltimore, Maryland.'}, {'ForeName': 'Jennifer S', 'Initials': 'JS', 'LastName': 'Herrick', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Internal Medicine, University of Utah, Salt Lake City, Utah.'}, {'ForeName': 'Enyu', 'Initials': 'E', 'LastName': 'Imai', 'Affiliation': 'Nakayamadera Imai Clinic, Takarazuka, Japan.'}, {'ForeName': 'Tazeen H', 'Initials': 'TH', 'LastName': 'Jafar', 'Affiliation': 'Program in Health Services and Systems Research, Duke-NUS Medical School, Singapore.'}, {'ForeName': 'Bart D', 'Initials': 'BD', 'LastName': 'Maes', 'Affiliation': 'AZ Delta, Roeselare, Belgium.'}, {'ForeName': 'Ronald D', 'Initials': 'RD', 'LastName': 'Perrone', 'Affiliation': 'Division of Nephrology, Tufts Medical Center, Boston, Massachusetts.'}, {'ForeName': 'Lucia', 'Initials': 'L', 'LastName': 'Del Vecchio', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Nephrology and Dialysis, Alessandro Manzoni Hospital, Lecco, Italy.'}, {'ForeName': 'Jack F M', 'Initials': 'JFM', 'LastName': 'Wetzels', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Nephrology, Radboud University Medical Center, Radboud Institute for Health Sciences, Nijmegen, The Netherlands; and.'}, {'ForeName': 'Hiddo J L', 'Initials': 'HJL', 'LastName': 'Heerspink', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Clinical Pharmacy and Pharmacology, University Medical Center Groningen, University of Groningen, The Netherlands.'}, {'ForeName': 'Lesley A', 'Initials': 'LA', 'LastName': 'Inker', 'Affiliation': 'Division of Nephrology, Tufts Medical Center, Boston, Massachusetts; LInker@tuftsmedicalcenter.org.'}]",Journal of the American Society of Nephrology : JASN,['10.1681/ASN.2019010009']

1817,31334914,Renal denervation in patients with heart failure secondary to Chagas' disease: A pilot randomized controlled trial.,"INTRODUCTION
Chagas disease is one of the most relevant endemic parasitic diseases in Latin America, affecting approximately 6 million people. Overt Chagas heart disease is an ominous condition, occurring in 20-30% of infected individuals, which has besides the persistent myocarditis a peculiar intracardiac ganglionic neuronal depletion and dysautonomy. This study aims to evaluate the safety and feasibility of renal denervation for patients with advanced symptomatic Chagas cardiomyopathy.
METHODS
Open-label prospective pilot study that randomized patients with Chagas heart disease to either renal denervation or conservative treatment (2:1 ratio). The primary endpoint was the incidence of major adverse events at 9 months, defined as a composite of all-cause death, myocardial infarction, stroke, need for renal artery invasive treatment, or worsening renal function.
RESULTS
A total of 17 patients were allocated for renal denervation (n = 11) or conservative treatment (n = 6). Included patients had severe symptomatic heart disease, with markedly depressed left ventricular function (average ejection fraction 26.7 ± 4.9%). For patients randomized to renal denervation, the procedure was performed successfully and uneventfully. After 9 months, the primary endpoint occurred in 36.4% of patients in the renal denervation group and 50.0% in the control arm (p = .6). After 9 months, clinical, laboratory, functional, echocardiographic, and quality of life parameters were similar between groups.
CONCLUSIONS
This pilot study suggests that renal denervation is safe and feasible in patients with Chagas cardiomyopathy, warranting future studies to better evaluate the clinical efficacy of the interventional

1819,31439584,Tissue and Plasma EGFR Mutation Analysis in the FLAURA Trial: Osimertinib versus Comparator EGFR Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitor as First-Line Treatment in Patients with EGFR-Mutated Advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer.,"PURPOSE
To assess the utility of the cobas EGFR Mutation Test, with tissue and plasma, for first-line osimertinib therapy for patients with EGFR -mutated ( EGFR m; Ex19del and/or L858R) advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) from the FLAURA study (NCT02296125).
EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN
Tumor tissue EGFR m status was determined at screening using the central cobas tissue test or a local tissue test. Baseline circulating tumor (ct)DNA EGFR m status was retrospectively determined with the central cobas plasma test.
RESULTS
Of 994 patients screened, 556 were randomized (289 and 267 with central and local EGFR test results, respectively) and 438 failed screening. Of those randomized from local EGFR test results, 217 patients had available central test results; 211/217 (97%) were retrospectively confirmed EGFR m positive by central cobas tissue test. Using reference central cobas tissue test results, positive percent agreements with cobas plasma test results for Ex19del and L858R detection were 79% [95% confidence interval (CI), 74-84] and 68% (95% CI, 61-75), respectively. Progression-free survival (PFS) superiority with osimertinib over comparator EGFR-TKI remained consistent irrespective of randomization route (central/local EGFR m-positive tissue test).

1820,31251430,A new experimental model of muscle pain in humans based on short-wave diathermy.,"BACKGROUND
Experimental models of pain in humans are crucial for understanding pain mechanisms. The most often used muscle pain models involve the injection of algesic substances, such as hypertonic saline solution or nerve growth factor or the induction of delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS) by an unaccustomed exercise routine. However, these models are either invasive or take substantial time to develop, and the elicited level of pain/soreness is difficult to control. To overcome these shortcomings, we propose to elicit muscle pain by a localized application of short-wave diathermy (SWD).
METHODS
In this crossover study, SWD was administered to 18 healthy volunteers to the wrist extensor muscle group, with a constant stimulation intensity and up to 4 min. Pressure pain threshold (PPT), pinprick sensitivity (PPS) and self-reported muscle soreness were assessed at baseline and at 0, 30 and 60 min after application of SWD.
RESULTS
SWD evoked localized muscle pain/soreness in the wrist extensor muscle group and a decrease of PPT in the treated arm compared with the control arm that lasted for at least 60 min, reflecting ongoing hyperalgesia after SWD application. PPS was not significantly altered 30-60 min following SWD, suggesting a minimal contribution from skin tissue to sustained hyperalgesia.
CONCLUSIONS
SWD was able to elicit muscle soreness and hyperalgesia up to 60 min after its application. Thus, this new model represents a promising tool for investigating muscle pain in humans.
SIGNIFICANCE
This study presents an experimental model to elicit sustained muscle pain based on short-wave diathermy. The main advantages of the model are its noninvasiveness, the possibility to control stimulation parameters in a reliable way and the convenience of the time frame in which pain and hyperalgesia are developed.",2019,"Pressure pain threshold (PPT), pinprick sensitivity (PPS) and self-reported muscle soreness were assessed at baseline and at 0, 30 and 60 minutes after application of SWD.

1821,31447409,"Combination denosumab and high dose teriparatide for postmenopausal osteoporosis (DATA-HD): a randomised, controlled phase 4 trial.","BACKGROUND
In the Denosumab and Teriparatide Administration (DATA) study, we showed that denosumab fully inhibits teriparatide-induced bone resorption while allowing for continued teriparatide-induced bone formation, resulting in larger increases in hip and spine bone mineral density (BMD) than with either drug alone. We aimed to assess whether administration of denosumab with high dose teriparatide would stimulate larger increases in bone mass than those observed in the DATA study.
METHODS
DATA-HD was an open-label, randomised, controlled phase 4 trial done at Massachusetts General Hospital. Eligible women were postmenopausal women (at least 36 months since last menses or since hysterectomy with a follicle-stimulating hormone concentration of ≥40 U/L) with osteoporosis. Participants were randomly assigned (1:1) to receive teriparatide 20 μg (standard dose) or 40 μg (high dose) daily via subcutaneous injection for 9 months. At 3 months, both groups were started on denosumab 60 mg every 6 months via subcutaneous injection for 12 months. Areal BMD (aBMD) was measured at 0, 3, 9, and 15 months. Treatment was given open label, but outcome assessors were masked. The primary endpoint was percentage change from baseline in spine areal BMD (aBMD) at 15 months. Women who completed at least one study visit after baseline were included in the modified intention-to-treat analysis. Safety was assessed in all randomly assigned participants. This study is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, number NCT02176382.
FINDINGS
Between Oct 15, 2014, and June 10, 2016, 269 women were assessed for eligibility. 76 participants were randomly assigned to 20 μg teriparatide (n=39) or 40 μg teriparatide (n=37), of whom 69 completed at least one post-baseline visit. At 15 months, mean spine aBMD had increased to a significantly greater extent in the 40 μg group (17·5% [SD 6·0] increase) than the 20 μg group (9·5% [3·2]; difference 8·1%, 95% CI 5·5 to 10·6, p<0·0001). Mean femoral neck aBMD had also increased to a greater extent in the 40 μg group (6·8% [SD 4·1] increase) than the 20 μg group (4·3% [3·7]; difference 2·5%, 0·5 to 4·5, p=0·04), as did mean total hip aBMD (40 μg group, 6·1% [3·4] increase; 20 μg group, 3·9% [2·9] increase; difference 2·2%, 0·6 to 3·8, p<0·0001). 30 (77%) of 39 participants in the 20 μg group and 29 (78%) of 37 participants in the 40 μg group had an adverse event, and seven (18%) and two (5%) patients had serious adverse events. The most frequent adverse events were joint pain (15 [38%]), muscle cramp (15 [38%]), and fatigue (12 [31%]) in the 20 μg group group and fatigue (14 [38%]), nausea (16 [43%]), and joint pain (17 [46%]) in the 40 μg group. No deaths were reported.
INTERPRETATION
Combined treatment with teriparatide 40 μg and denosumab increases spine and hip BMD more than standard combination therapy. This large and rapid increase in bone mass suggest that this high dose regimen might provide a method of restoring skeletal integrity in patients with osteoporosis.

1825,31442441,A phase I randomized safety study of a single-size silicone rubber diaphragm used with or without a lactic-acid-containing diaphragm gel.,"OBJECTIVES
To evaluate a lactic-acid-containing diaphragm gel (Contragel®) approved outside the United States for use with a silicone rubber diaphragm (Caya®). The study gel is being evaluated as a safer alternative to nonoxynol-9 (N-9) gel, which has been associated with risk of increasing susceptibility to human immunodeficiency virus (HIV).
STUDY DESIGN
This was a Phase I randomized, parallel study evaluating the safety of the novel diaphragm gel versus hydroxyethylcellulose (HEC) universal placebo gel delivered by the study diaphragm for two 7-day test cycles of daily use, without and with intercourse. The primary clinical safety endpoint was treatment emergent adverse events. Mucosal safety endpoints included colposcopic findings, anti-Escherichia coli activity of endocervical and vaginal fluid, immune mediators, Nugent score and ectocervical immune cell density. Endpoints were assessed prior to each test cycle and at day 7 of each test cycle. We compared the two independent groups and also evaluated paired changes from baseline in each gel cohort.
RESULTS
Twenty-three participants used the study diaphragm with the novel gel (n=11) or with HEC (n=12). Use of either gel resulted in few genital AEs and no colposcopic findings. There were no differences in ectocervical histology and lymphocyte density or phenotype between the two cohorts at baseline or after each test cycle. We found no clinically important differences in the anti-microbial (anti Escherichia coli) activity of endocervical or vaginal fluid or concentrations of genital immune mediators (e.g. anti-inflammatory secretory leukocyte protease inhibitor (SLPI) or pro-inflammatory mediator RANTES) between the two gel cohorts at any visit. There were no important paired changes from baseline among participants using either gel in Nugent score, ectocervical histology or anti-microbial activity of genital secretions.
CONCLUSIONS
We found no clinically significant differences in clinical and mucosal safety endpoints between the two cohorts. The mucosal safety profiles of the study gel and HEC placebo gel were similar.
IMPLICATIONS
Our data demonstrate no clinically important differences between the safety profiles of the lactic-acid-containing diaphragm gel versus HEC placebo gel when used with the study diaphragm. N-9 can no longer be used with contraceptive diaphragms in high HIV prevalence regions. Although larger studies are needed, the novel gel appears safe for use with the study diaphragm, which is the first over-the-counter, non-hormonal, diaphragm.",2019,"There were no important paired changes from baseline among participants using either gel in Nugent score, ectocervical histology or anti-microbial activity of genital secretions.

1826,31454802,Four-Week Omega-3 Supplementation in Carriers of the Prosteatotic PNPLA3 p.I148M Genetic Variant: An Open-Label Study.,"BACKGROUND/AIMS
The PNPLA3 loss-of-function variant p.I148M is a strong genetic determinant of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease. The PNPLA3 protein functions as an intracellular lipase in the liver, with a greater activity on unsaturated fatty acids. This study aimed to determine whether short-term supplementation with omega-3 fatty acids impacts hepatic steatosis differently in PNPLA3 p.148I wild-type individuals as compared to homozygous carriers of the PNPLA3 p.148M variant.
METHODS
Twenty subjects with hepatic steatosis (50% women, age 18-77 years) were included. Ten subjects homozygous for the PNPLA3 148M variant were matched to 10 wild-type individuals. The subjects received 4 g omega-3 fatty acids (1,840 mg eicosapentaenoic acid and 1,520 mg docosahexaenoic acid) a day for 4 weeks. Transient elastography with a controlled attenuation parameter (CAP) was used to quantify liver fat before and after the intervention. Body composition, fibrosis, liver function tests, serum free fatty acids (FFA) and glucose markers were compared.
RESULTS
Patients homozygous for the PNPLA3 p.148M variant (risk group) demonstrated no significant changes in CAP compared to baseline (284 ± 55 vs. 287 ± 65 dB/m) as did the control group (256 ± 56 vs. 262 ± 55 dB/m). While serum liver enzyme activities remained unchanged in both groups, the risk group displayed significantly (p = 0.02) lower baseline FFA concentrations (334.5 [range 281.0-431.0] vs. 564.5 [range 509.0-682.0] μmol/L), which markedly increased by 9.1% after the intervention. In contrast, FFA concentrations decreased significantly (p = 0.01) by 28.3% in the wild-type group.
CONCLUSIONS
Short-term omega-3 fatty acid supplementation did not significantly alter hepatic steatosis. The nutrigenomic and metabolic effects of omega-3 fatty acids should be investigated further in carriers of the PNPLA3 148M risk variant.",2019,"While serum liver enzyme activities remained unchanged in both groups, the risk group displayed significantly (p = 0.02) lower baseline FFA concentrations (334.5 [range 281.0-431.0] vs. 564.5 [range 509.0-682.0] μmol/L), which markedly increased by 9.1% after the intervention.","['Ten subjects homozygous for the PNPLA3 148M variant were matched to 10 wild-type individuals', 'I148M Genetic Variant', 'Twenty subjects with hepatic steatosis (50% women, age 18-77 years', 'carriers of the PNPLA3 148M risk variant', 'PNPLA3 p.148I wild-type individuals as compared to homozygous carriers of the PNPLA3 p.148M variant']","['4\xa0g omega-3 fatty acids (1,840 mg eicosapentaenoic acid and 1,520 mg docosahexaenoic acid', 'Short-term omega-3 fatty acid supplementation', 'omega-3 fatty acids', 'Transient elastography with a controlled attenuation parameter (CAP']","['baseline FFA concentrations', 'FFA concentrations', 'Body composition, fibrosis, liver function tests, serum free fatty acids (FFA) and glucose markers', 'hepatic steatosis', 'CAP', 'serum liver enzyme activities']","[{'cui': 'C0205419', 'cui_str': 'Variant (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0336766', 'cui_str': 'Matches'}, {'cui': 'C0445392', 'cui_str': 'Wild (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0441704', 'cui_str': 'Typings (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0237401', 'cui_str': 'Individual (person)'}, {'cui': 'C0017399', 'cui_str': 'genetics'}, {'cui': 'C2711227', 'cui_str': 'Liver Steatosis'}, {'cui': 'C0043210', 'cui_str': 'Girls'}, {'cui': 'C0001792', 'cui_str': 'Elderly'}, {'cui': 'C0439234', 'cui_str': 'year (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0560175', 'cui_str': 'Carrier State'}, {'cui': 'C0035647', 'cui_str': 'Risk'}]","[{'cui': 'C0015689', 'cui_str': 'Omega-3 Fatty Acids'}, {'cui': 'C0000545', 'cui_str': 'Eicosapentaenoic Acid'}, {'cui': 'C0556150', 'cui_str': 'docosahexaenoic acid'}, {'cui': 'C1806781', 'cui_str': 'Short (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0561929', 'cui_str': 'N-3 fatty acid supplementation (product)'}, {'cui': 'C2748260', 'cui_str': 'Transient elastography'}, {'cui': 'C2587213', 'cui_str': 'Controlled (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0449381', 'cui_str': 'Observation parameter'}, {'cui': 'C0179586', 'cui_str': 'Cap (physical object)'}]","[{'cui': 'C0086045', 'cui_str': 'Concentration'}, {'cui': 'C0005885', 'cui_str': 'Body Composition'}, {'cui': 'C0016059', 'cui_str': 'Fibrosis'}, {'cui': 'C0023901', 'cui_str': 'Liver Function Tests'}, {'cui': 'C0229671', 'cui_str': 'Serum'}, {'cui': 'C0373606', 'cui_str': 'Free fatty acids measurement (procedure)'}, {'cui': 'C0337438', 'cui_str': 'Glucose measurement (procedure)'}, {'cui': 'C2711227', 'cui_str': 'Liver Steatosis'}, {'cui': 'C0179586', 'cui_str': 'Cap (physical object)'}, {'cui': 'C0443764', 'cui_str': 'Liver enzyme (substance)'}, {'cui': 'C0441655', 'cui_str': 'Activity (observable entity)'}]",20.0,0.0202791,"While serum liver enzyme activities remained unchanged in both groups, the risk group displayed significantly (p = 0.02) lower baseline FFA concentrations (334.5 [range 281.0-431.0] vs. 564.5 [range 509.0-682.0] μmol/L), which markedly increased by 9.1% after the intervention.","[{'ForeName': 'Clara-Sophie', 'Initials': 'CS', 'LastName': 'Kuttner', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Medicine II, Saarland University Medical Center, Saarland University, Homburg, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Rosellina', 'Initials': 'R', 'LastName': 'Mancina', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Molecular and Clinical Medicine, Sahlgrenska Academy, University of Gothenburg, Gothenburg, Sweden.'}, {'ForeName': 'Gudrun', 'Initials': 'G', 'LastName': 'Wagenpfeil', 'Affiliation': 'Institute of Medical Biometry, Epidemiology and Medical Informatics, Saarland University, Homburg, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Frank', 'Initials': 'F', 'LastName': 'Lammert', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Medicine II, Saarland University Medical Center, Saarland University, Homburg, Germany, frank.lammert@uks.eu.'}, {'ForeName': 'Caroline S', 'Initials': 'CS', 'LastName': 'Stokes', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Medicine II, Saarland University Medical Center, Saarland University, Homburg, Germany.'}]",Lifestyle genomics,['10.1159/000502008']
1827,31425966,Induction chemotherapy followed by concurrent chemoradiotherapy versus concurrent chemoradiotherapy alone in locoregionally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma: long-term results of a phase III multicentre randomised controlled trial.,"BACKGROUND
Initial 3-year results from our clinical trial in locoregionally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) patients showed that induction chemotherapy (IC) with cisplatin and fluorouracil resulted in improved disease-free survival (DFS) with a marginally significant effect on distant metastasis-free survival (DMFS), but the effect of IC on locoregional relapse-free survival and overall survival (OS) did not differ significantly. Here, we present 5-year follow-up results.
PATIENTS AND METHODS
Our trial was a randomised, open-label phase III trial comparing IC followed by concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) versus CCRT alone in patients with stage III-IVB (except T3N0-1) NPC. The IC followed by CCRT group received cisplatin (80 mg/m 2 d1) and fluorouracil (800 mg/m 2 d1-5) every 3 weeks for two cycles before CCRT. Both groups were treated with 80 mg/m 2 cisplatin every 3 weeks concurrently with radiotherapy. The primary end-points were DFS and DMFS. We did efficacy analyses in the 476 randomised patients (intention-to-treat population).
RESULTS
After a median follow-up of 82.6 months, the 5-year DFS rate was 73.4% (95% confidence interval [CI] 67.7-79.1) in the IC followed by CCRT group and 63.1% (95% CI 56.8-69.4) in the CCRT alone group (p = 0.007). The 5-year DMFS rate was also significantly higher in the IC followed by CCRT group (82.8%, 95% CI 77.9-87.7) than in the CCRT alone group (73.1%, 95% CI 67.2-79.0, p = 0.014). Our updated analysis revealed an OS benefit of IC: the 5-year OS rate was 80.8% in the IC followed by CCRT group versus 76.8% in the CCRT alone group (p = 0.040). The proportion of patients with eye damage was significantly higher in the CCRT alone group than the IC followed by CCRT group (16.4% [39/238] versus 9.7% [23/238], p = 0.029).
CONCLUSION
IC followed by CCRT provides long-term DFS, DMFS and OS benefits compared with CCRT alone in locoregionally advanced NPC and, therefore, can be recommended for these patients.",2019,"The proportion of patients with eye damage was significantly higher in the CCRT alone group than the IC followed by CCRT group (16.4% [39/238] versus 9.7% [23/238], p = 0.029).

1828,31371228,"Adjuvant hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy in patients with locally advanced colon cancer (COLOPEC): a multicentre, open-label, randomised trial.","BACKGROUND
Nearly a quarter of patients with locally advanced (T4 stage) or perforated colon cancer are at risk of developing peritoneal metastases, often without curative treatment options. We aimed to determine the efficacy of adjuvant hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) in patients with locally advanced colon cancer.
METHODS
This multicentre, open-label trial was done in nine hospitals that specialised in HIPEC in the Netherlands. Patients with clinical or pathological T4N0-2M0-stage tumours or perforated colon cancer were randomly assigned (1:1), with a web-based randomisation application, before resection of the primary tumour, to adjuvant HIPEC followed by routine adjuvant systemic chemotherapy (experimental group) or to adjuvant systemic chemotherapy alone (control group). Patients were stratified by tumour characteristic (T4 or perforation), age (<65 years or ≥65 years), and surgical approach of the primary tumour resection (laparoscopic or open). Key eligibility criteria included age between 18 and 75 years, adequate clinical condition for HIPEC, and intention to start adjuvant systemic chemotherapy. Patients with metastatic disease were ineligible. Adjuvant HIPEC consisted of fluorouracil (400 mg/m 2 ) and leucovorin (20 mg/m 2 ) delivered intravenously followed by intraperitoneal delivery of oxaliplatin (460 mg/m 2 ) for 30 min at 42°C, delivered simultaneously or within 5-8 weeks after primary tumour resection. In all patients without evidence of recurrent disease at 18 months, a diagnostic laparoscopy was done. The primary endpoint was peritoneal metastasis free-survival at 18 months, measured in the intention-to-treat population, with the Kaplan-Meier method. Adverse events were assessed in all patients who received assigned treatment. This study is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, number NCT02231086.
FINDINGS
Between April 1, 2015, and Feb 20, 2017, 204 patients were randomly assigned to treatment (102 in each group). In the HIPEC group, two patients withdrew consent after randomisation. In this group, 19 (19%) of 100 patients were diagnosed with peritoneal metastases: nine (47%) during surgical exploration preceding intentional adjuvant HIPEC, eight (42%) during routine follow-up, and two (11%) during diagnostic laparoscopy at 18-months. In the control group, 23 (23%) of 102 patients were diagnosed with peritoneal metastases, of whom seven (30%) were diagnosed by laparoscopy at 18-months and 16 during regular follow-up (therefore making them ineligible for diagnostic laparoscopy). In the intention-to-treat analysis (n=202), there was no difference in peritoneal-free survival at 18-months (80·9% [95% CI 73·3-88·5] for the experimental group vs 76·2% [68·0-84·4] for the control group, log-rank one-sided p=0·28). 12 (14%) of 87 patients who received adjuvant HIPEC developed postoperative complications and one (1%) encapsulating peritoneal sclerosis.
INTERPRETATION
In patients with T4 or perforated colon cancer, treatment with adjuvant HIPEC with oxaliplatin did not improve peritoneal metastasis-free survival at 18 months. Routine use of adjuvant HIPEC is not advocated on the basis of this trial.

1830,31392790,Exercise-induced hypoalgesia in young adult females with long-standing patellofemoral pain - A randomized crossover study.,"BACKGROUND
Patellofemoral pain (PFP) is a common knee pain condition where hip and knee exercises help improve treatment outcomes. This study compared the acute effect of hip versus knee exercises on anti-nociceptive and pro-nociceptive mechanisms in young females with long-standing PFP.
METHODS
In this randomized cross-over study, 29 females with PFP performed hip and knee exercises in randomized order during a single day. Pressure pain thresholds (PPTs) were assessed by handheld pressure algometry at the patella, the tibialis anterior muscle, and the contralateral elbow. Cuff pressure algometry at the lower legs was used to assess pain detection threshold (cPDT) and tolerance (cPTT) as well as conditioned pain modulation (CPM: change in cPDT during contralateral cuff pain conditioning) and temporal summation of pain (TSP: ten painful cuff stimulations assessed on a visual analogue scale [VAS]).
RESULTS
PPTs at the tibialis anterior muscle but not at the patella increased compared with baseline following both exercises (p < .002). Compared with baseline, the cPDTs and cPTTs increased after both types of exercises (p < .001). The cPTTs increased more after knee compared to hip exercises (p < .007). VAS scores for TSP were increased following hip exercises (p < .001) although the rate of VAS increase over repeated stimulations was not significantly affected by exercises.

1831,31686407,An Update on Vitamin D and Disease Activity in Multiple Sclerosis.,"Vitamin D and its main active metabolite 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D serve a crucial role in maintenance of a healthy calcium metabolism, yet have additional roles in immune and central nervous system cell homeostasis. Serum levels of 25-hydroxyvitamin D are a biomarker of future disease activity in patients with early relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS), and vitamin D supplementation in patients with low circulating 25-dihydroxyvitamin D levels has been anticipated as a potential efficacious treatment strategy. The results of the first large randomized clinical trials (RCTs), the SOLAR and CHOLINE studies, have now been published. The SOLAR study compared 14,000 IU of vitamin D 3 (cholecalciferol) per day with placebo for 48 weeks in 232 randomized patients, whereas CHOLINE compared vitamin D 3 100,000 IU every other week with placebo for 96 weeks in 129 randomized patients. All patients in both studies also used interferon-β-1a. None of the studies met their primary endpoints, which were no evidence of disease activity (NEDA-3) at 48 weeks in SOLAR and annualized relapse rate at 96 weeks in CHOLINE. Both studies did, however, suggest modest effects on secondary endpoints. Thus, vitamin D reduced the number of new or enlarging lesions and new T2 lesions in SOLAR, and the annualized relapse rate and number of new T1 lesions, volume of hypointense T1 lesions, and disability progression in the 90 patients who completed 96 weeks' follow-up in CHOLINE. We conclude that none of the RCTs on vitamin supplementation in MS have met their primary clinical endpoint in the intention to treat cohorts. This contrasts the observation studies, where each 25 nmol/l increase in 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels were associated with 14-34% reduced relapse risk and 15-50% reduced risk of new lesions on magnetic resonnance imaging. This discrepancy may have several explanations, including confounding and reverse causality in the observational studies. The power calculations of the RCTs have been based on the observational studies, and the RCTs may have been underpowered to detect less prominent yet important effects of vitamin D supplementation. Although the effect of vitamin D supplementation is uncertain and less pronounced than suggested by observational studies, current evidence still support that people with MS should avoid vitamin D insufficiency, and preferentially aim for vitamin D levels around 100 nmol/L or somewhat higher.",2019,"None of the studies met their primary endpoints, which were no evidence of disease activity (NEDA-3) at 48 weeks in SOLAR and annualized relapse rate at 96 weeks in CHOLINE.","['Multiple Sclerosis', 'patients with early relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS']","['interferon-β-1a', 'vitamin D supplementation', 'vitamin D 3 (cholecalciferol) per day with placebo', 'placebo', 'Vitamin D']","['number of new or enlarging lesions and new T2 lesions in SOLAR, and the annualized relapse rate and number of new T1 lesions, volume of hypointense T1 lesions, and disability progression', 'Serum levels of 25-hydroxyvitamin D', '25-hydroxyvitamin D levels', 'disease activity (NEDA-3', 'annualized relapse rate']","[{'cui': 'C0026769', 'cui_str': 'MS (Multiple Sclerosis)'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C1279919', 'cui_str': 'Early (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0751967', 'cui_str': 'Multiple Sclerosis, Relapsing-Remitting'}]","[{'cui': 'C0021747', 'cui_str': 'Interferons'}, {'cui': 'C4524013', 'cui_str': 'Vitamin D supplementation'}, {'cui': 'C0008318', 'cui_str': 'Cholecalciferol'}, {'cui': 'C0439505', 'cui_str': 'per day'}, {'cui': 'C1696465', 'cui_str': 'placebo'}, {'cui': 'C0042866', 'cui_str': 'Vitamin D'}]","[{'cui': 'C0237753', 'cui_str': 'Number (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0205314', 'cui_str': 'New (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0221198', 'cui_str': 'Lesion (morphologic abnormality)'}, {'cui': 'C0035020', 'cui_str': 'Relapse'}, {'cui': 'C0449468', 'cui_str': 'Volume (property) (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0231170', 'cui_str': 'Disability (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C0449258', 'cui_str': 'Progression (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0229671', 'cui_str': 'Serum'}, {'cui': 'C0456079', 'cui_str': 'Level (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0535968', 'cui_str': '25-hydroxyvitamin D'}, {'cui': 'C0012634', 'cui_str': 'Disease'}, {'cui': 'C0441655', 'cui_str': 'Activity (observable entity)'}]",232.0,0.178116,"None of the studies met their primary endpoints, which were no evidence of disease activity (NEDA-3) at 48 weeks in SOLAR and annualized relapse rate at 96 weeks in CHOLINE.","[{'ForeName': 'Joost', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Smolders', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Neurology, Canisius Wilhelmina Hospital, Nijmegen, The Netherlands.'}, {'ForeName': 'Øivind', 'Initials': 'Ø', 'LastName': 'Torkildsen', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Neurology, Haukeland University Hospital, Bergen, Norway.'}, {'ForeName': 'William', 'Initials': 'W', 'LastName': 'Camu', 'Affiliation': 'Centre de Référence SLA, CHU Gui de Chauliac et Univ Montpellier, Montpellier, France.'}, {'ForeName': 'Trygve', 'Initials': 'T', 'LastName': 'Holmøy', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Neurology, Akershus University Hospital, Box 1000, 1478, Lørenskog, Norway. trygve.holmoy@medisin.uio.no.'}]",CNS drugs,['10.1007/s40263-019-00674-8']
1832,31227284,Impact of elagolix on work loss due to endometriosis-associated pain: estimates based on the results of two phase III clinical trials.,"OBJECTIVE
To estimate the impact of elagolix on work loss due to endometriosis-associated pain.
DESIGN
Post hoc analysis of data from the Elaris I and II clinical trials.
SETTING
Not applicable.
PATIENT(S)
Employed women ages 18-49 years with moderate-to-severe endometriosis-associated pain.
INTERVENTION(S)
In the two trials, participants were randomized to 6 months of treatment with placebo, elagolix 150 mg once a day, or elagolix 200 mg twice a day.
MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE(S)
Data on planned work hours, presenteeism, absenteeism, and total work loss (absenteeism + presenteeism) at baseline and month 3 were collected using the Health-Related Productivity Questionnaire.
RESULT(S)
This analysis included employed participants from EM-I (n = 672) and EM-II (n = 626). Between baseline and month 3, compared with participants treated with placebo, participants treated with elagolix 150 mg once a day gained > 2 hours total work/week (EM-I, 2.20 ± 1.03; EM-II, 2.65 ± 1.14). Participants treated with 200 mg twice a day gained > 4 hours total work/week (EM-I, 4.91 ± 1.04; EM-II, 4.64 ± 1.14). Both absenteeism and presenteeism were reduced, although most of the gain was due to reduced presenteeism. Estimated cost savings after 6 months of treatment with elagolix were > $1,500 U.S. at 150 mg once a day and > $3,300 U.S. at 200 mg twice a day.
CONCLUSION(S)
Compared with placebo, treating moderate-to-severe endometriosis-associated pain with elagolix reduced absenteeism and improved productivity in employed women, which should result in cost savings.

1833,31415787,A long-term evaluation of experimental potassium oxalate concentrations on dentin hypersensitivity reduction: A triple-blind randomized clinical trial.,"OBJECTIVE
The aim of this split-mouth, triple-blind, randomized clinical trial was to evaluate the long-term clinical efficacy of experimental potassium oxalate concentration (10%) in relieving dentin hypersensitivity (DH), after a four-session application protocol.
METHODS
Potassium oxalate gels with different concentrations (5 and 10%) were randomly assigned to half of the 31 patients from the sample in a split-mouth design. The desensitizers were applied following a four-session protocol, one session every 48 h. The primary outcome was the assessment of pain level with the visual analog scale (VAS, 0-10), at baseline, immediately after each desensitizing session, and also after the seventh day and along 1-,3-, 6-, 9- and 12-months follow-ups. Statistical analyses were performed using Friedman repeated measures and Wilcoxon signed rank tests (α = 0.05).
RESULTS
For both groups, the minimum of three sessions were required for the achievement of lower DH levels. Regardless of the concentration, the desensitizing effect was maintained all the way to the end of the 6-month follow-up. The 10%-potassium oxalate group was more effective for both 9 and 12-months follow-up periods (p < 0.001). No complications and adverse effects were observed.
CONCLUSIONS
When a four-session protocol is applied, both concentrations of potassium oxalate (5 and 10%) proved to be effective on DH reduction for up to six months. However, the higher concentration promoted better long-term results.
CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE
The DH is an increasing condition in clinical practice, which affects the patient's life quality. This study provides primary clinical evidence, suggesting that multiple application sessions and higher concentrations of potassium oxalate may result in maintenance of the desensitizing effect for more extended periods. Trial registered under number: ClinicalTrials.gov NCT03083496.",2019,"No complications and adverse effects were observed.

1834,30686609,A Triple-Blind Randomized Trial of Preemptive Use of Gabapentin Before Laparoscopic Hysterectomy for Benign Gynaecologic Conditions.,"OBJECTIVE
This study sought to examine the efficacy of preemptive use of gabapentin in laparoscopic hysterectomy for benign gynaecologic conditions.
METHODS
In a triple-blind trial, the study investigators randomly assigned women undergoing laparoscopic hysterectomy to receive 600 mg gabapentin (n = 43) or placebo (n = 45) orally 1 hour before the procedure. Patient-controlled opioid analgesia was provided postoperatively. The primary outcome of the trial was cumulative opioid consumption in the first postoperative 24 hours. The study also assessed pain at rest and on movement, the presence of side effects, and patient satisfaction at 2, 8, and 24 hours after surgery.
RESULTS
Between March 10, 2016 and May 1, 2018, 215 women were assessed for eligibility, 110 were randomized, and 88 completed the study. Enrolment was started after trial registration. The investigators found no difference in 24-hour cumulative morphine equivalent opioid consumption between the gabapentin group (26.9 ± 14.7 mg) and the placebo group (27.1 ± 15.1 mg). This provided a mean difference of 0.2 mg (95% CI -6.1 to 6.5, P = 0.943). Pain scores at 2, 8, and 24 hours were also not found to differ between groups. Gabapentin was associated with increased dizziness, but it significantly reduced the use of antiemetic at any time in the first 24 postoperative hours. Patient satisfaction in the two groups was good and not found to differ.
CONCLUSION
Preemptive administration of gabapentin before laparoscopic hysterectomy does not decrease postoperative pain scores and narcotic consumption.",2019,"Patient satisfaction in the two groups was good and not found to differ.

1835,31377265,"Effectiveness and safety of the tri-iodothyronine analogue Triac in children and adults with MCT8 deficiency: an international, single-arm, open-label, phase 2 trial.","BACKGROUND
Deficiency of the thyroid hormone transporter monocarboxylate transporter 8 (MCT8) causes severe intellectual and motor disability and high serum tri-iodothyronine (T 3 ) concentrations (Allan-Herndon-Dudley syndrome). This chronic thyrotoxicosis leads to progressive deterioration in bodyweight, tachycardia, and muscle wasting, predisposing affected individuals to substantial morbidity and mortality. Treatment that safely alleviates peripheral thyrotoxicosis and reverses cerebral hypothyroidism is not yet available. We aimed to investigate the effects of treatment with the T 3 analogue Triac (3,3',5-tri-iodothyroacetic acid, or tiratricol), in patients with MCT8 deficiency.
METHODS
In this investigator-initiated, multicentre, open-label, single-arm, phase 2, pragmatic trial, we investigated the effectiveness and safety of oral Triac in male paediatric and adult patients with MCT8 deficiency in eight countries in Europe and one site in South Africa. Triac was administered in a predefined escalating dose schedule-after the initial dose of once-daily 350 μg Triac, the daily dose was increased progressively in 350 μg increments, with the goal of attaining serum total T 3 concentrations within the target range of 1·4-2·5 nmol/L. We assessed changes in several clinical and biochemical signs of hyperthyroidism between baseline and 12 months of treatment. The prespecified primary endpoint was the change in serum T 3 concentrations from baseline to month 12. The co-primary endpoints were changes in concentrations of serum thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), free and total thyroxine (T 4 ), and total reverse T 3 from baseline to month 12. These analyses were done in patients who received at least one dose of Triac and had at least one post-baseline evaluation of serum throid function. This trial is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, number NCT02060474.
FINDINGS
Between Oct 15, 2014, and June 1, 2017, we screened 50 patients, all of whom were eligible. Of these patients, four (8%) patients decided not to participate because of travel commitments. 46 (92%) patients were therefore enrolled in the trial to receive Triac (median age 7·1 years [range 0·8-66·8]). 45 (98%) participants received Triac and had at least one follow-up measurement of thyroid function and thus were included in the analyses of the primary endpoints. Of these 45 patients, five did not complete the trial (two patients withdrew [travel burden, severe pre-existing comorbidity], one was lost to follow-up, one developed of Graves disease, and one died of sepsis). Patients required a mean dose of 38.3 μg/kg of bodyweight (range 6·4-84·3) to attain T 3 concentrations within the target range. Serum T 3 concentration decreased from 4·97 nmol/L (SD 1·55) at baseline to 1·82 nmol/L (0·69) at month 12 (mean decrease 3·15 nmol/L, 95% CI 2·68-3·62; p<0·0001), while serum TSH concentrations decreased from 2·91 mU/L (SD 1·68) to 1·02 mU/L (1·14; mean decrease 1·89 mU/L, 1·39-2·39; p<0·0001) and serum free T 4 concentrations decreased from 9·5 pmol/L (SD 2·5) to 3·4 (1·6; mean decrease 6·1 pmol/L (5·4-6·8; p<0·0001). Additionally, serum total T 4 concentrations decreased by 31·6 nmol/L (28·0-35·2; p<0·0001) and reverse T 3 by 0·08 nmol/L (0·05-0·10; p<0·0001). Seven treatment-related adverse events (transiently increased perspiration or irritability) occurred in six (13%) patients. 26 serious adverse events that were considered unrelated to treatment occurred in 18 (39%) patients (mostly hospital admissions because of infections). One patient died from pulmonary sepsis leading to multi-organ failure, which was unrelated to Triac treatment.
INTERPRETATION
Key features of peripheral thyrotoxicosis were alleviated in paediatric and adult patients with MCT8 deficiency who were treated with Triac. Triac seems a reasonable treatment strategy to ameliorate the consequences of untreated peripheral thyrotoxicosis in patients with MCT8 deficiency.

1836,29706169,A pilot trial of text-delivered peer network counseling to treat young adults with cannabis use disorder.,"Approximately 1.8 million young adults aged 18 to 25 had a Cannabis Use Disorder (CUD) in the past year. Unfortunately, engaging young adults in treatment is very challenging. Creative approaches to treat cannabis disorders such as integrating mobile technology with evidence-based treatments are warranted. In light of these challenges, we developed a text message-delivered version of Peer Network Counseling (PNC-txt), which is a substance use intervention that focuses on peer relations. PNC-txt engages participants in 16 automated, personalized text interactions over 4weeks. We conducted a randomized controlled trial to test the efficacy of PNC-txt against a waitlist control group with 30 treatment seeking young adults (ages 18-25) who met DSM-5 criteria for CUD. Self-report and urine analyses were used to test outcomes at the three-month follow-up. The PNC-txt group significantly reduced their cannabis use related problems as well as cannabis cravings, compared to the control group. PNC-txt participants also had a significantly greater percentage with urines negative for cannabis metabolites compared to controls. Moderation analysis showed that CUD severity level moderated treatment, suggesting that PNC-txt is more effective for participants with medium and high levels of CUD severity. All effect sizes ranged from medium to large. Results from this pilot trial are promising and warrant further research on PNC-txt for addressing cannabis use disorder.",2018,"The PNC-txt group significantly reduced their cannabis use related problems as well as cannabis cravings, compared to the control group.","['group with 30 treatment seeking young adults (ages 18-25) who met DSM-5 criteria for CUD', 'young adults with cannabis use disorder', 'Approximately 1.8 million young adults aged 18 to 25 had a Cannabis Use Disorder (CUD) in the past year']","['PNC-txt against a waitlist control', 'text-delivered peer network counseling']","['cannabis cravings', 'cannabis metabolites']","[{'cui': 'C0439745', 'cui_str': 'Grouped (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0087111', 'cui_str': 'Therapy'}, {'cui': 'C0238598', 'cui_str': 'Young Adult'}, {'cui': 'C0001792', 'cui_str': 'Elderly'}, {'cui': 'C0243161', 'cui_str': 'criteria'}, {'cui': 'C3160814', 'cui_str': 'Cannabis use'}, {'cui': 'C0012634', 'cui_str': 'Disease'}, {'cui': 'C0332232', 'cui_str': 'Approximate (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C4068742', 'cui_str': '1.8'}, {'cui': 'C1444637', 'cui_str': 'In the past'}, {'cui': 'C0439234', 'cui_str': 'year (qualifier value)'}]","[{'cui': 'C2587213', 'cui_str': 'Controlled (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C3541382', 'cui_str': 'Text'}, {'cui': 'C0010210', 'cui_str': 'Counseling'}]","[{'cui': 'C0678449', 'cui_str': 'Cannabis'}, {'cui': 'C0870371', 'cui_str': 'Craving'}, {'cui': 'C0870883', 'cui_str': 'Metabolite'}]",0.0,0.0640252,"The PNC-txt group significantly reduced their cannabis use related problems as well as cannabis cravings, compared to the control group.","[{'ForeName': 'Michael J', 'Initials': 'MJ', 'LastName': 'Mason', 'Affiliation': 'Center for Behavioral Health Research, University of Tennessee, Knoxville, TN, United States.

Group A patients were subjected to standard haemodialysis (HD) for 4 hours using holofibre dialyser and group B patients received 36 hours of peritoneal dialysis (PD) where Verapamil was added intraperitonealy in the dose of 10 mg/ L/cycle in the clearance periods III, V, VII, IX and XI (Total dose 150 mg). The 36 hours of PD consisted of 36 cycles of one hour duration each and these were divided into 12 clearance periods (CP) of 3 cycles each. Following both the forms of dialytic treatments, there was significant improvement in the signs of uraemia with fall in the blood urea and serum creatinine levels. The peritoneal clearances, percentage fall of urea and creatinine, and protein loss were similar in the two groups (p > 0.5). However, ultrafiltration was significantly higher in the group B. No untoward effects were noticed in group B however group A patients had episodes of hypotension (5)] disequilibrium (6) and cardiac arrhythmias (1). It can be concluded that both clinically and biochemically, 36 hours of Verapamil added PD and 4 hours of hemodialysis are comparable and therefore, peritoneal dialysis may be used more frequently in acute renal failure specially in situations where trained dialysis staff is not available and patients are not haemodynamically stable.",1997,"However, ultrafiltration was significantly higher in the group B.

1838,31435653,The Efficacy of Ultrasonic Bone Scalpel for Unilateral Cervical Open-Door Laminoplasty: A Randomized Controlled Trial.,"BACKGROUND
In cervical open-door laminoplasty for cervical myelopathy, a high-speed rotatory drill and rongeurs are used to make unicortical troughs and bicortical openings in the laminae. The lamina is reflected at the trough to enlarge the spinal canal, followed by bone healing on the hinge side to stabilize laminoplasty. The ultrasonic bone scalpel (UBS) has been used due to theoretical advantages including a better hinge union rate, less soft tissue trauma, less neurological injury, and shorter operative time.
OBJECTIVE
To assess the superiority of UBS for hinge union compared to the drill through randomized controlled trial.
METHODS
In 190 randomly allocated cervical myelopathy patients, the trough and opening at the lamina were made using either the drill (n = 95) or UBS (n = 95) during 2015 to 2018. The primary outcome was the hinge union rate on 6-mo postoperative computed tomography. Secondary outcomes included the hinge union rate at 12 mo, the operative time, intraoperative/postoperative bleeding, neurological injury, complications, and clinical outcomes over a 24-mo follow-up.
RESULTS
Hinge union in all laminae was achieved in 60.0% (drill) and 43.9% (UBS) of patients at 6 mo (intention-to-treat analysis; P = .02; odds ratio, 2.1) and in 91.9% (drill) and 86.5% (UBS) at 12 mo. Dural injury only occurred in the drill group (2.1%), and the UBS group showed significantly less intraoperative bleeding (P < .01). The other secondary outcomes did not differ between groups.
CONCLUSION
The hinge union rate was inferior in the UBS group at 6 mo postoperatively, but UBS was efficacious in reducing dural injuries and bleeding.",2020,"The hinge union rate was inferior in the UBS group

1841,31402008,Antibiotic prophylaxis in the surgical management of miscarriage in low-income countries: a cost-effectiveness analysis of the AIMS trial.,"BACKGROUND
There is ongoing debate on the clinical benefits of antibiotic prophylaxis for reducing pelvic infection after miscarriage surgery. We aimed to study the cost-effectiveness of antibiotic prophylaxis in the surgical management of miscarriage in low-income countries.
METHODS
We did an incremental cost-effectiveness analysis using data from 3412 women recruited to the AIMS trial, a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial designed to evaluate the effectiveness of antibiotic prophylaxis in the surgical management of miscarriage in Malawi, Pakistan, Tanzania, and Uganda. Economic evaluation was done from a health-care-provider perspective on the basis of the outcome of cost per pelvic infection avoided within 2 weeks of surgery. Pelvic infection was broadly defined by the presence of clinical features or the clinically identified need to administer antibiotics. We used non-parametric bootstrapping and multilevel random effects models to estimate incremental mean costs and outcomes. Decision uncertainty was shown via cost-effectiveness acceptability frontiers. The AIMS trial is registered with the ISRCTN registry, number ISRCTN97143849.
FINDINGS
Between June 2, 2014, and April 26, 2017, 3412 women were assigned to receive either antibiotic prophylaxis (1705 [50%] of 3412) or placebo (1707 [50%] of 3412) in the AIMS trial. 158 (5%) of 3412 women developed pelvic infection within 2 weeks of surgery, of whom 68 (43%) were in the antibiotic prophylaxis group and 90 (57%) in the placebo group. There is 97-98% probability that antibiotic prophylaxis is a cost-effective intervention at expected thresholds of willingness-to-pay per additional pelvic infection avoided. In terms of post-surgery antibiotics, the antibiotic prophylaxis group was US$0·27 (95% CI -0·49 to -0·05) less expensive per woman than the placebo group. A secondary analysis, a sensitivity analysis, and all subgroup analyses supported these findings. Antibiotic prophylaxis, if implemented routinely before miscarriage surgery, could translate to an annual total cost saving of up to $1·4 million across the four participating countries and up to $8·5 million across the two regions of sub-Saharan Africa and south Asia.
INTERPRETATION
Antibiotic prophylaxis is more effective and less expensive than no antibiotic prophylaxis. Policy makers in various settings should be confident that antibiotic prophylaxis in miscarriage surgery is cost-effective.

1842,31400634,Adjuvant ipilimumab versus placebo after complete resection of stage III melanoma: long-term follow-up results of the European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer 18071 double-blind phase 3 randomised trial.,"BACKGROUND
Since 2015, adjuvant therapy with ipilimumab is an approved treatment for stage III melanoma based on a significantly prolonged recurrence-free survival (RFS). At a median follow-up of 5.3 years, RFS, distant metastasis-free survival (DMFS) and overall survival (OS) were each significantly prolonged in the ipilimumab group compared with the placebo group, despite a 53.3% (ipilimumab) versus 4.6% (placebo) treatment discontinuation rate due to adverse events. We present now long-term follow-up results of this European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer 18071 trial.
PATIENTS, METHODS AND RESULTS
A total of 99 sites randomised 951 patients with stage III cutaneous melanoma (excluding lymph node metastasis ≤1 mm or in-transit metastasis) with adequate resection of lymph nodes to receive intravenous infusions of ipilimumab 10 mg/kg or placebo, every 3 weeks for 4 doses, then every 3 months for up to 3 years. The RFS, DMFS and OS, as reported by the local investigators, were assessed by the intention-to-treat analysis. Among 431 patients randomised at 63 sites and who were still alive at the analysis reported in 2016, recent follow-up information could be obtained for 264 patients. The median OS follow-up was 6.9 years. The RFS (hazard ratio [HR] 0.75, 95% confidence interval 0.63-0.88; P < 0.001), DMFS (HR 0.76, 0.64-0.90; P = 0.002) and OS (HR 0.73, 0.60-0.89; P = 0.002) benefit observed in the ipilimumab group was durable with an 8.7% absolute difference at 7 years for OS. The benefit was consistent across subgroups.

1843,31377534,Randomized controlled trial of the Child Protection Unit: Grade and gender as moderators of CSA prevention concepts in elementary students.,"BACKGROUND
Despite the importance of child sexual abuse (CSA) prevention, there are few recent randomized controlled trials of school-based CSA prevention programs.
OBJECTIVES
(1) To evaluate the effects of the Second Step Child Protection Unit (CPU) on students' CSA prevention concept knowledge, ability to recognize, report, and refuse unsafe touches, and perceptions of teacher-student relations and (2) investigate the moderating role of age and gender on program effectiveness.
PARTICIPANTS AND SETTING
Eight elementary schools in a large suburban school district in the northeast United States were randomly assigned to the intervention or control condition, with analyses conducted on a total of 2172 students.
METHODS
Students in intervention schools received the 6-week CPU and those in the control schools were exposed to business as usual. Students were administered assessments at baseline and then at post-test.
RESULTS
Univariate Analyses of Covariance revealed that students in the intervention schools had significantly higher scores on all outcomes than students in the control schools at post-test, even after controlling for baseline scores. Children in younger grades made greater gains from the program, and girls scored higher than boys in CSA knowledge and ability to recognize, refuse, and report unsafe touches, but both boys and girls made significant gains.
CONCLUSIONS
Results support the importance of beginning early with school-based CSA prevention efforts. Although boys are still at a relative disadvantage in terms of their knowledge and ability in this area, they are able to make gains at the same rate as girls.",2019,"RESULTS

1844,31432080,Postsurgical Electrical Stimulation Enhances Recovery Following Surgery for Severe Cubital Tunnel Syndrome: A Double-Blind Randomized Controlled Trial.,"BACKGROUND
Patients with severe cubital tunnel syndrome often have poor functional recovery with conventional surgical treatment. Postsurgical electrical stimulation (PES) has been shown to enhance axonal regeneration in animal and human studies.
OBJECTIVE
To determine if PES following surgery for severe cubital tunnel syndrome would result in better outcomes compared to surgery alone.
METHODS
Patients with severe cubital tunnel syndrome in this randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial were randomized in a 1:2 ratio to the control or stimulation groups. Control patients received cubital tunnel surgery and sham stimulation, whereas patients in the stimulation group received 1-h of 20 Hz PES following surgery. Patients were assessed by a blinded evaluator annually for 3 yr. The primary outcome was motor unit number estimation (MUNE) and secondary outcomes were grip and key pinch strength and McGowan grade and compound muscle action potential.
RESULTS
A total of 31 patients were enrolled: 11 received surgery alone and 20 received surgery and PES. Three years following surgery, MUNE was significantly higher in the PES group (176 ± 23, mean + SE) compared to controls (88 ± 11, P < .05). The mean gain in key pinch strength in the PES group was almost 3 times greater than in the controls (P < .05). Similarly, other functional and physiological outcomes showed significantly greater improvements in the PES group.

1846,31314073,"Urine Tenofovir Concentrations Correlate With Plasma and Relate to Tenofovir Disoproxil Fumarate Adherence: A Randomized, Directly Observed Pharmacokinetic Trial (TARGET Study).","BACKGROUND
Direct measurement of tenofovir (TFV) in urine could be an objective measure to monitor adherence to preexposure prophylaxis (PrEP) or TFV-based antiretroviral therapy (ART).
METHODS
We conducted a 3-arm randomized, pharmacokinetic study of tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) 300 mg/emtricitabine (FTC) 200 mg among adults living with human immunodeficiency virus. Participants were randomized to receive controlled TDF/FTC dosing as (1) ""perfect"" adherence (daily); (2) ""moderate"" adherence (4 doses/week); or (3) ""low"" adherence (2 doses/week). We obtained trough spot urine and plasma samples during a 6-week directly observed therapy period and a 4-week washout period. TFV concentrations were compared between adherence arms using 1-way analysis of variance.
RESULTS
Among 28 participants, the median age was 33 years and 16 (57%) were male. Correlation between TFV plasma and urine concentrations was strong (ρ = 0.78; P < .0001). Median (interquartile range) steady-state trough TFV concentrations (ng/mL) for perfect, moderate, and low TDF adherence were 41 (26-52), 16 (14-19), and 4 (3-5) in plasma; and 6480 (3940-14 300), 3405 (2210-5020), and 448 (228-675) in urine. Trough TFV concentrations at steady state were significantly different between the 3 adherence arms for plasma (P < .0001) and urine (P = .0002). Following drug cessation, TFV concentrations persisted longer in urine than plasma samples. Washout urine TFV concentrations and time to undetectable concentrations did not differ between the 3 randomized adherence groups.
CONCLUSIONS
Urine TFV concentrations can inform interpretation of novel point-of-care urine-based TFV assays to assess recent TDF adherence.

1847,31423712,"Safety, Tolerability and efficacy of Rapid Optimization, helped by NT-proBNP and GDF-15, of Heart Failure therapies (STRONG-HF): rationale and design for a multicentre, randomized, parallel-group study.","AIMS
Patients admitted for acute heart failure (HF) are at high risk of readmission and death, especially in the 90 days following discharge. We aimed to assess the safety and efficacy of early optimization of oral HF therapy with beta-blockers (BB), angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEi) or angiotensin receptor blockers (ARB) or angiotensin receptor-neprilysin inhibitors (ARNi), and mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists (MRA) on 90-day clinical outcomes in patients admitted for acute HF.
METHODS
In a multicentre, randomized, open-label, parallel-group study, a total of 900 patients will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to either 'usual care' or 'high-intensity care'. Patients enrolled in the usual care arm will be discharged and managed according to usual clinical practice at the site. In the high-intensity care arm, doses of oral HF medications - including a BB, ACEi or ARB, and MRA - will be up-titrated to 50% of recommended doses before discharge and to 100% of recommended doses within 2 weeks of discharge. Up-titration will be delayed if the patients develop worsening symptoms and signs of congestion, hyperkalaemia, hypotension, bradycardia, worsening of renal function or significant increase in N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide between visits. The primary endpoint is 90-day all-cause mortality or HF readmission.
CONCLUSIONS
STRONG-HF is the first study to assess whether rapid up-titration of evidence-based guideline-recommended therapies with close follow-up in a large cohort of patients discharged from an acute HF admission is safe and can affect adverse outcomes during the first 90 days after discharge.

A phase III clinical trial evaluating the two-drug combination of ruzasvir 60 mg plus uprifosbuvir 450 mg suggested suboptimal efficacy in certain HCV genotypes (C-BREEZE 1; NCT02759315). The aim of the present study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ruzasvir in combination with uprifosbuvir administered at a higher dose than that assessed in the earlier study (C-BREEZE 2: NCT02956629/Merck protocol PN041). Treatment-naïve or interferon (with or without ribavirin)-experienced participants with or without compensated cirrhosis were enrolled. All participants received ruzasvir 180 mg plus uprifosbuvir 450 mg once daily for 12 weeks. The primary objectives were the proportion of participants with HCV RNA <15 lU/mL at 12 weeks after the end of study therapy (SVR12), and safety and tolerability of the study drug. Overall, 282 participants were enrolled. SVR12 (n/N) was 91.3% (42/46) in participants infected with HCV genotype (GT) 1a; GT1b, 96.7% (29/30); GT2, 91.5% (43/47); GT3, 73.8% (45/61); GT4, 98.2% (55/56); GT5, 100.0% (18/18); and GT6, 90.9% (20/22).

1849,31046033,"Effects of a standardized extract of Withania somnifera (Ashwagandha) on depression and anxiety symptoms in persons with schizophrenia participating in a randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trial.","BACKGROUND
Extracts of Withania somnifera (WSE), or Ashwagandha, has traditionally been used as an adaptogen in Ayurvedic medicine, and evidence suggests that it may have efficacy in the treatment of psychiatric disorders, including schizophrenia. This secondary analysis reviewed change in depression and anxiety symptoms in a study using WSE as an adjunctive treatment in patients with schizophrenia experiencing an exacerbation of positive symptoms.
METHODS
We enrolled patients with schizophrenia in a 12-week, randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind study. Active treatment was with 1,000 mg of standardized WSE. This analysis reviewed outcomes for 66 patients with depression and anxiety symptoms by examining the singleitem depression and anxiety-depression cluster subscores extracted from the Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale.
RESULTS
Medium effect sizes of 0.683 (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.16 to 1.21) and 0.686 (95% CI, 0.16 to 1.21) favoring WSE over placebo were observed for depression single-item and anxiety-depression cluster scores, respectively. Adverse events were mild and transient.

1851,7875749,Evaluation of diclofenac sodium as a perioperative analgesic.,"1. This study was undertaken to assess whether the analgesia conferred by Diclofenac sodium in the post operative period following general surgery is enhanced by preoperative administration of the drug. 2. Two groups of patients were studied. Group I patients received narcotic premedication and Group II patients received Diclofenac sodium as premedication. Post operatively both groups were administered intramuscular Diclofenac sodium 8 hourly for 48 hours. 3. Pain scoring using visual analogue scale indicated a better pain relief in Group II patients. In Group I, 75% patients had a pain score less than 3 whereas 85% in Group II had a pain score less than 3 (Figure 1). 4. Pulmonary function tests were done 24 hours after surgery and revealed improved values of all parameters in Group II patients. This indicates a greater degree of analgesia in Group II patients. 5. Preoperative administration of the drug reduces the initiation of pain in the periphery and decreases the inflammatory response after surgery. 6. NSAIDS do not have any central effect or any respiratory depression. Patients in our study were found to be awake, cooperative and pain free.

RO7020531, an oral prodrug of a TLR7 agonist, is in clinical development as part of a curative regimen against chronic hepatitis B. We report the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PKs), and pharmacodynamics (PDs) of RO7020531 in healthy Chinese volunteers following single and multiple ascending doses (SAD and MAD). PK and PD samples were evaluated from four SAD cohorts and 3 MAD cohorts with 10 subjects each (8 active and 2 placebo). Safety and tolerability were monitored throughout the study. A total of 155 adverse events (AEs) were reported in 49 subjects. Fifty-one AEs in 18 subjects were assessed as treatment-related. Most of the AEs were mild; nine subjects experienced moderate AEs; there were no severe AEs. In two 150 mg MAD cohorts given every other day (q.o.d.), 7 of 20 subjects experienced pyrexia and were discontinued due to transient asymptomatic lymphopenia, which resolved 24-48 hours postdose. The PK of the active metabolite, RO7011785, increased linearly with dose from 40 mg to 170 mg. There was no PK accumulation following q.o.d. dosing. The PK profile is consistent with observations in white subjects in the global first-in-human study. SADs and MADs of RO7020531 resulted in dose-dependent increases in TLR7 response markers at 100 mg or above. Flu-like symptoms were associated with higher interferon-α levels.

1853,25348221,Acute kidney injury after cardiac surgery: is minocycline protective?,"BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES
Acute kidney injury (AKI) after cardiac bypass surgery (CABG) is common and carries a significant association with morbidity and mortality. Since minocycline therapy attenuates kidney injury in animal models of AKI, we tested its effects in patients undergoing CABG.
DESIGN, SETTING, PARTICIPANTS AND MEASUREMENTS
This is a randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled, multi-center study. We screened high risk patients who were scheduled to undergo CABG in two medical centers between Jan 2008 and June 2011. 40 patients were randomized and 19 patients in each group completed the study. Minocycline prophylaxis was given twice daily, at least for four doses prior to CABG. Primary outcome was defined as AKI [0.3 mg/dl increase in creatinine (Cr)] within 5 days after surgery. Daily serum Cr for 5 days, various clinical and hemodynamic measures and length of stay were recorded.
RESULTS
The two groups had similar baseline and intra-operative characteristics. The primary outcome occurred in 52.6% of patients in the minocycline group as compared to 36.8% of patients in the placebo group (p = 0.51). Peak Cr was 1.6 ± 0.7 vs. 1.5 ± 0.7 mg/dl (p = 0.45) in minocycline and placebo groups, respectively. Death at 30 days occurred in 0 vs. 10.5% in the minocycline and placebo groups, respectively (p = 0.48). There were no differences in post-operative length of stay, and cardiovascular events between the two groups. There was a trend towards lower diastolic pulmonary artery pressure [16.8 ± 4.7 vs. 20.7 ± 6.6 mmHg (p = 0.059)] and central venous pressure [11.8 ± 4.3 vs. 14.6 ± 5.6 mmHg (p = 0.13)] in the minocycline group compared to placebo on the first day after surgery.

1855,31419272,Effects of sertraline in the prevention of low blood pressure in patients undergoing hemodialysis.,"INTRODUCTION
Intradialytic hypotension (IDH) is a major complication of hemodialysis, with a prevalence of about 25% during hemodialysis sessions, causing increased morbidity and mortality.
OBJECTIVE
To study the effects of sertraline to prevent IDH in hemodialysis patients.
METHODS
This was a double-blind, crossover clinical trial comparing the use of sertraline versus placebo to reduce intradialytic hypotension.
RESULTS
Sixteen patients completed the two phases of the study during a 12-week period. The IDH prevalence was 32%. A comparison between intradialytic interventions, intradialytic symptoms, and IDH episodes revealed no statistical difference in the reduction of IDH episodes (p = 0.207) between the two intervention groups. However, the risk of IDH interventions was 60% higher in the placebo group compared to the sertraline group, and the risk of IDH symptoms was 40% higher in the placebo group compared to the sertraline group. Survival analysis using Kaplan-Meier estimator supported the results of this study. Sertraline presented a number needed to treat (NNT) of 16.3 patients to prevent an episode from IDH intervention and 14.2 patients to prevent an episode from intradialytic symptoms.
CONCLUSION
This study suggests that the use of sertraline may be beneficial to reduce the number of symptoms and ID interventions, although there was no statistically significant difference in the blood pressure levels.",2019,"However, the risk of IDH interventions was 60% higher in the placebo group compared to the sertraline group, and the risk of IDH symptoms was 40% higher in the placebo group compared to the sertraline group.","['hemodialysis patients', 'patients undergoing hemodialysis', 'Sixteen patients completed the two phases of the study during a 12-week period']","['sertraline', 'placebo', 'Sertraline']","['blood pressure levels', 'number needed to treat (NNT', 'IDH prevalence', 'IDH episodes', 'risk of IDH interventions', 'low blood pressure', 'risk of IDH symptoms']","[{'cui': 'C0019004', 'cui_str': 'Hemodialysis'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C3715157', 'cui_str': '16'}, {'cui': 'C0205197', 'cui_str': 'Complete (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0585064', 'cui_str': 'Numerical phases (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0557651', 'cui_str': 'Study (environment)'}, {'cui': 'C0620347', 'cui_str': 'compound A 12'}, {'cui': 'C0439230', 'cui_str': 'week (qualifier value)'}]","[{'cui': 'C0074393', 'cui_str': 'Sertraline'}, {'cui': 'C1696465', 'cui_str': 'placebo'}]","[{'cui': 'C0005823', 'cui_str': 'Blood Pressure'}, {'cui': 'C0456079', 'cui_str': 'Level (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C3179138', 'cui_str': 'Numbers Needed To Treat'}, {'cui': 'C0220900', 'cui_str': 'prevalence'}, {'cui': 'C0035647', 'cui_str': 'Risk'}, {'cui': 'C0020649', 'cui_str': 'Blood Pressure, Low'}, {'cui': 'C0683368', 'cui_str': 'symptoms'}]",,0.11721,"However, the risk of IDH interventions was 60% higher in the placebo group compared to the sertraline group, and the risk of IDH symptoms was 40% higher in the placebo group compared to the sertraline group.","[{'ForeName': 'Christine Zomer Zomer Dal', 'Initials': 'CZZD', 'LastName': 'Molin', 'Affiliation': 'Universidade do Sul de Santa Catarina, Tubarão, SC, Brasil.'}, {'ForeName': 'Thiago Mamoru', 'Initials': 'TM', 'LastName': 'Sakae', 'Affiliation': 'Universidade do Sul de Santa Catarina, Tubarão, SC, Brasil.'}, {'ForeName': 'Fabiana', 'Initials': 'F', 'LastName': 'Schuelter-Trevisol', 'Affiliation': 'Universidade do Sul de Santa Catarina, Tubarão, SC, Brasil.'}, {'ForeName': 'Daisson Jose', 'Initials': 'DJ', 'LastName': 'Trevisol', 'Affiliation': 'Universidade do Sul de Santa Catarina, Tubarão, SC, Brasil.'}]",Jornal brasileiro de nefrologia : 'orgao oficial de Sociedades Brasileira e Latino-Americana de Nefrologia,['10.1590/2175-8239-JBN-2018-0189']
1856,31303298,"Post-partum family planning in Burkina Faso (Yam Daabo): a two group, multi-intervention, single-blinded, cluster-randomised controlled trial.","BACKGROUND
Post-partum family planning services can prevent maternal and child morbidity and mortality in low-resource settings. We assessed the effect of a family planning intervention package on modern contraceptive use at 12 months post partum in predominantly rural Burkina Faso.
METHODS
Yam Daabo was a two group, multi-intervention, single-blinded, cluster randomised controlled trial. Primary health-care centres were randomly allocated to intervention or control clusters in a 1:1 ratio with only data analysts masked to the allocation assignment. Interventions comprised refresher training for the provider, a counselling tool, supportive supervision, availability of contraceptive services 7 days a week, client appointment cards, and invitation letters for partners. The primary outcome was modern contraceptive prevalence at 12 months, and secondary outcomes were modern contraceptive prevalence at 6 weeks and 6 months post partum. Analysis was by modified intention to treat. Prevalence ratios were adjusted for cluster effects and baseline characteristics. This study was registered with the Pan-African Clinical Trials Registry (PACTR201609001784334).
FINDINGS
From July 27-Oct 17, 2016, eight clinics were randomised and 571 women were enrolled and allocated: 286 to four intervention clusters and 285 to four control clusters. Of these, 523 completed the 12-month study exit interview (260 in the intervention group, 263 in the control group) and 523 were included in the intention-to-treat analysis. At 12 months, modern contraceptive prevalence was 55% among women who received the package and 29% among those who received routine care in control clusters (adjusted prevalence ratio 1·79, 95% CI 1·30-2·47). Significant differences in modern contraceptive prevalence were also seen between intervention and control groups at 6 weeks (42% and 10%, respectively; adjusted prevalence ratio 3·88, 95% CI 1·46-10·35) and 6 months (59% and 24%, respectively; 2·31, 1·44-3·71).
INTERPRETATION
A package of six low-technology interventions, aimed at strengthening existing primary health-care services and enhancing demand for these services, can effectively increase modern contraceptive use for up to a year post partum in rural settings in Burkina Faso and has the potential to be suitable in similar settings in this country and others.

1857,32130178,A Theoretically Based Mobile App to Increase Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis Uptake Among Men Who Have Sex With Men: Protocol for a Randomized Controlled Trial.,"BACKGROUND
HealthMindr is a mobile phone HIV prevention app for men who have sex with men (MSM). In a previous pilot study, HealthMindr was found to be acceptable among users and to demonstrate preliminary effectiveness for increasing pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) uptake among MSM. PrEP is a highly effective HIV prevention intervention; however, uptake remains low.
OBJECTIVE
The aim of this study will be to assess the efficacy of a mobile app for increasing PrEP uptake among MSM in the southern United States.
METHODS
In this randomized controlled trial, we will assess the efficacy of HealthMindr for increasing PrEP uptake among MSM in the following three southern US cities: Atlanta, Georgia; Jackson, Mississippi; and Washington, DC. In total, 657 men will be recruited and randomized to intervention and control arms in a 2:1 ratio. Participants in the intervention arm will receive access to the full HealthMindr app, with information and resources about PrEP (eg, frequently asked questions, risk assessment tool, and PrEP provider locator), other HIV prevention information, ability to order free HIV/sexually transmitted infection test kits, and additional resources related to substance use and mental health. Participants in the control arm will use the HealthMindr app but will only have access to the study timeline and a message center to communicate with study staff. Participants will complete quarterly surveys to assess self-reported PrEP uptake over 12 months of follow-up. Self-reported PrEP uptake will be verified by dried blood spot testing and/or uploading a photograph of a PrEP prescription.
RESULTS
Participant recruitment began in January 2020.
CONCLUSIONS
This trial will determine whether the HealthMindr app can increase PrEP uptake among MSM in the southern United States.

1859,31801514,Maternal nutritional adequacy and gestational weight gain and their associations with birth outcomes among Vietnamese women.,"BACKGROUND
During pregnancy, a mother's nutritional needs increase to meet the added nutrient demands for fetal growth and development. An enhanced understanding of adequate nutrition and sufficient weight gain during pregnancy can guide development of policies and strategies for maternal nutrition care, actions that will ultimately promote better pregnancy outcomes. In a sample of pregnant women in Vietnam, this study characterized maternal nutrition status and gestational weight gain at a mid-pregnancy baseline, then examined the association of these variables with specific birth outcomes.
METHODS
The study used baseline data from a randomized, controlled trial that compared pregnant Vietnamese women who received a nutritional intervention group with those who received only standard dietary counseling (control group). At baseline (26-29 weeks gestation), mothers' dietary reports were collected, and intake of 10 macro- and micronutrients was estimated; data for baseline gestational weight gain was collected for all pregnant women enrolled into the study (n = 228). This analysis also used weights, lengths, and head circumferences at birth for infants of mothers in the control group.
RESULTS
At baseline, 95% of the pregnant women had concurrent inadequacies for more than five nutrients, and nearly half had concurrent inadequacies for more than ten nutrients. Almost two-thirds of the pregnant women did not meet recommendations for gestational weight gain. We found a significant, inverse association between the number of nutrient inadequacies and gestational weight gain (overall p ≤ 0.045). After adjusting for potential confounders, gestational weight gain was positively associated with birth weight, length at birth, birth weight-for-age z-score and length-for-age z-score (all p ≤ 0.006).
CONCLUSIONS
Our findings raise concern over the high proportion of pregnant women in Vietnam who have multiple concurrent nutrient inadequacies and who fall short of meeting recommended gestational weight gain standards.

1860,31116883,A Cluster Randomized Trial of Tai Chi vs Health Education in Subsidized Housing: The MI-WiSH Study.,"OBJECTIVES
Tai Chi (TC) may benefit older adults with a variety of diseases and disabilities. We tested the hypothesis that TC improves physical function in older adults living in low-income housing facilities.
DESIGN
Cluster randomized controlled trial.
SETTING
Subsidized housing facilities in Boston, Massachusetts, and neighboring communities.
PARTICIPANTS
Volunteers were recruited from 15 facilities. The 180 randomized participants were 60 years of age or older, able to understand English and participate in TC, expected to remain in the facility for 1 year, and able to walk independently.
INTERVENTION
TC classes were conducted in the housing facilities twice/week for 1 year and compared with monthly health promotion educational classes and social calls.
MEASUREMENTS
The primary outcome was physical function measured by the Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB). Secondary outcomes included other aspects of physical and cognitive function, and falls.
RESULTS
An interim analysis revealed less improvement over 12 months in SPPB scores among TC participants (+.20 units; 95% confidence interval [CI] = -.20 to +.60; P = .69) vs control participants (+.51 units; 95% CI = +.15 to +.87; P = .007), a difference of -.31 units (95% CI = -.66 to .04; P = .082). This met the criterion for futility, and the Data Safety Monitoring Board recommended trial termination. No differences were found in 6- or 12-month changes favoring TC in any secondary outcomes or adverse events.
CONCLUSION
In older adults with multiple chronic conditions living in subsidized housing facilities, 6 and 12 months of twice/week TC classes were not associated with improvements in functional health.

1861,31116891,Effect of local infiltration with oxytocin on hemodynamic response to surgical incision and postoperative pain in patients having open laparoscopic surgery under general anesthesia.,"BACKGROUND
Preemptive analgesia encompasses different perioperative interventions that have the final aim of decreasing postoperative pain and improving recovery. Recently, peripheral analgesic effects of oxytocinergic modulation have been suggested. In this regard, we tested the potential analgesic effects of subcutaneous oxytocin (OT) infiltration in patients submitted to laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
METHODS
Thirty patients with similar general characteristics and medical physical conditions were evaluated. The patients were assigned by simple random selection to one of three groups: (a) OT group (n = 10), which received preincisional subcutaneous OT (4 µg/4 ml saline) in the surgical sites for trocar placements; (b) Lidocaine group (n = 10), which received subcutaneous lidocaine 1% (4 ml) in the surgical sites; and (c) Control group (n = 10), which did not receive any treatment. Then we measured the effect of those treatments on the hemodynamic variations produced as responses to the surgical incisions and trocar insertions (open port placements using the Hasson technique). Moreover, we assessed the intensity of postoperative pain with the visual analogue scale during recovery and 24 hr after surgery.
RESULTS
Hemodynamic parameters were stable in both intervention groups (subcutaneous OT and lidocaine) during the surgical incisions and trocar placements, whereas a most likely sympathetic activation due to trocar insertions (open port placements) was not blunted in the placebo group. Furthermore, postoperative pain was diminished in both OT and lidocaine groups when compared to the control group.
CONCLUSIONS
Preincisional subcutaneous OT administration reduced the hemodynamic response produced by the latter. Furthermore, OT also diminished postoperative pain.",2019,"RESULTS

1862,31944804,"Use of common and unique techniques in the early treatment phase for cognitive-behavioral, interpersonal/emotional, and supportive listening interventions for generalized anxiety disorder.","Psychotherapy research often compares specific treatments to control conditions to establish efficacy of the specified treatment. Research has typically evaluated common factor elements (e.g., credibility, expectancy) in treatments only after the first or second session, largely as a manipulation check and under the assumption that such factors are static. This study observed therapist common factor and model-specific interventions in three treatment approaches from a randomized control trial for generalized anxiety disorder across the entire early phase of treatment (i.e., first five sessions). The parent randomized control trial compared two treatment conditions, using an additive design where patients were randomized to receive either interpersonal/emotional processing interventions or supportive listening after receiving a session of cognitive-behavioral therapy. The first five video-recorded sessions of N = 40 randomly sampled participants were observationally coded with a multidimensional intervention measure, with subscales reflecting diverse theoretical orientations and common factors. Multilevel modeling was used to examine intervention use and investigate differences between treatment conditions and segments. Among the results, common factor interventions were rated as significantly more typical in cognitive-behavioral therapy compared with supportive listening. The pattern of intervention use of other subscales was generally consistent with the orientation of the respective protocols. In the early phase of treatment, supportive listening conditions do not appear to function as common factor controls in the manner that many might assume. Common factors are potentially enhanced in bona fide treatments that include a more detailed, specific rationale and clear and cohesive techniques and goals.

1863,31323455,Financial strain and ideal cardiovascular health in middle-aged and older women: Data from the Women's health study.,"Financial strain is a prevalent form of psychosocial stress in the United States; however, information about the relationship between financial strain and cardiovascular health remains sparse, particularly in older women.
METHODS
The cross-sectional association between financial strain and ideal cardiovascular health were examined in the Women's Health Study follow-up cohort (N = 22,048; mean age = 72± 6.0 years).Six self-reported measures of financial strain were summed together to create a financial strain index and categorized into 4 groups: No financial strain, 1 stressor, 2 stressors, and 3+ stressors. Ideal cardiovascular health was based on the American Heart Association strategic 2020 goals metric, including tobacco use, body mass index, physical activity, diet, blood pressure, total cholesterol and diabetes mellitus. Cardiovascular health was examined as continuous and a categorical outcome (ideal, intermediate, and poor). Statistical analyses adjusted for age, race/ethnicity, education and income.
RESULTS
At least one indicator of financial strain was reported by 16% of participants. Number of financial stressors was associated with lower ideal cardiovascular health, and this association persisted after adjustment for potential confounders (1 financial stressor (FS): B = -0.10, 95% Confidence Intervals (CI) = -0.13, -0.07; 2 FS: B = -0.20, 95% CI = -0.26, -0.15; 3+ FS: B = -0.44, 95% CI = -0.50, -0.38).

1864,31419968,A combination intervention addressing sexual risk-taking behaviors among vulnerable women in Uganda: study protocol for a cluster randomized clinical trial.,"BACKGROUND
Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) has the highest number of people living with HIV/AIDS, with Nigeria, South Africa, and Uganda accounting for 48% of new infections. A systematic review of the HIV burden among women engaged in sex work (WESW) in 50 low- and middle-income countries found that they had increased odds of HIV infection relative to the general female population. Social structural factors, such as the sex work environment, violence, stigma, cultural issues, and criminalization of sex work are critical in shaping sexually transmitted infection (STI)/HIV risks among WESW and their clients in Uganda. Poverty is the most commonly cited reason for involvement in sex work in SSA. Against this backdrop, this study protocol describes a randomized controlled trial (RCT) that tests the impact of adding economic empowerment to traditional HIV risk reduction (HIVRR) to reduce new incidence of STIs and HIV among WESW in Rakai and the greater Masaka regions in Uganda.
METHODS
This three-arm RCT will evaluate the efficacy of adding savings, financial literacy and vocational training/mentorship to traditional HIVRR on reducing new incidence of STI infections among 990 WESW across 33 hotspots. The three arms (n = 330 each) are: 1) Control group: only HIVRR versus 2) Treatment group 1: HIVRR plus Savings plus Financial Literacy (HIVRR + S + FL); and 3) Treatment group 2: HIVRR plus S plus FL plus Vocational Skills Training and Mentorship (V) (HIVRR + S + FL + V). Data will be collected at baseline (pre-test), 6, 12, 18 and 24-months post-intervention initiation. This study will use an embedded experimental mixed methods design where qualitative data will be collected post-intervention across all conditions to explore participant experiences.
DISCUSSION
When WESW have access to more capital and/or alternative forms of employment and start earning formal income outside of sex work, they may be better able to improve their skills and employability for professional advancement, thereby reducing their STI/HIV risk. The study findings may advance our understanding of how best to implement gender-specific HIV prevention globally, engaging women across the HIV treatment cascade.

1865,26588940,The Efficacy of Adapted MBCT on Core Symptoms and Executive Functioning in Adults With ADHD: A Preliminary Randomized Controlled Trial.,"OBJECTIVE
The aim of this study was to examine the effectiveness of mindfulness as a treatment for adults diagnosed with ADHD. A 12-week-adapted mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (MBCT) program is compared with a waiting list (WL) group.
METHOD
Adults with ADHD were randomly allocated to MBCT ( n = 55) or waitlist ( n = 48). Outcome measures included investigator-rated ADHD symptoms (primary), self-reported ADHD symptoms, executive functioning, depressive and anxiety symptoms, patient functioning, and mindfulness skills.
RESULTS
MBCT resulted in a significant reduction of ADHD symptoms, both investigator-rated and self-reported, based on per-protocol and intention-to-treat analyses. Significant improvements in executive functioning and mindfulness skills were found. Additional analyses suggested that the efficacy of MBCT in reducing ADHD symptoms and improving executive functioning is partially mediated by an increase in the mindfulness skill ""Act With Awareness."" No improvements were observed for depressive and anxiety symptoms, and patient functioning.
CONCLUSION
This study provides preliminary support for the effectiveness of MBCT for adults with ADHD.",2019,"No improvements were observed for depressive and anxiety symptoms, and patient functioning.

1866,31326680,Design and rationale of a pragmatic trial integrating routine screening for atrial fibrillation at primary care visits: The VITAL-AF trial.,"Given the preventable morbidity and mortality associated with atrial fibrillation (AF), increased awareness of undiagnosed AF, and advances in mobile electrocardiogram (ECG) technology, there is a critical need to assess the effectiveness of using such technology to routinely screen for AF in clinical practice. VITAL-AF is a pragmatic trial that will test whether screening for AF using a single-lead handheld ECG in individuals 65 years or older during primary care visits will lead to an increased rate of AF detection. The study is a cluster-randomized trial, with 8 primary care practices randomized to AF screening and 8 primary care practices randomized to usual care. We anticipate studying approximately 16,000 patients in each arm. During the 1-year enrollment period, practice medical assistants will screen eligible patients who agree to participate during office visits using a single-lead ECG device. Automated screening results are documented in the electronic health record, and patients can discuss screening results with their provider during the scheduled visit. All single-lead ECGs are overread by a cardiologist. Screen-detected AF is managed at the discretion of the patient's physician. The primary study end point is incident AF during the screening period. Key secondary outcomes include new oral anticoagulation prescriptions, incident ischemic stroke, and major hemorrhage during a 24-month period following the study start. Outcomes are ascertained based on electronic health record documentation and are manually adjudicated. The results of this pragmatic trial may help identify a model for widespread adoption of AF screening as part of routine clinical practice.",2019,"Key secondary outcomes include new oral anticoagulation prescriptions, incident ischemic stroke, and major hemorrhage during a 24-month period following the study start.","['atrial fibrillation at primary care visits', '16,000 patients in each arm', 'individuals 65 years or older during primary care visits', 'eligible patients who agree to participate during office visits using a single-lead ECG device']",['AF screening'],"['new oral anticoagulation prescriptions, incident ischemic stroke, and major hemorrhage']","[{'cui': 'C0004238', 'cui_str': 'Auricular Fibrillation'}, {'cui': 'C0033137', 'cui_str': 'Primary Care'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C1140618', 'cui_str': 'Membrum superius'}, {'cui': 'C0237401', 'cui_str': 'Individual (person)'}, {'cui': 'C0439234', 'cui_str': 'year (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0677546', 'cui_str': 'Old episode (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0028900', 'cui_str': 'Office Visits'}, {'cui': 'C0205171', 'cui_str': 'Singular (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0023175', 'cui_str': 'Lead'}, {'cui': 'C1623258', 'cui_str': 'ECG'}, {'cui': 'C0220819', 'cui_str': 'devices'}]","[{'cui': 'C0220908', 'cui_str': 'Screening'}]","[{'cui': 'C0205314', 'cui_str': 'New (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C4521986', 'cui_str': 'Oral (intended site)'}, {'cui': 'C0033080', 'cui_str': 'Prescriptions'}, {'cui': 'C0948008', 'cui_str': 'Ischemic stroke (disorder)'}, {'cui': 'C0205082', 'cui_str': 'Severe (severity modifier) (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C1869041', 'cui_str': 'Haemorrhages (SMQ)'}]",,0.0527347,"Key secondary outcomes include new oral anticoagulation prescriptions, incident ischemic stroke, and major hemorrhage during a 24-month period following the study start.","[{'ForeName': 'Jeffrey M', 'Initials': 'JM', 'LastName': 'Ashburner', 'Affiliation': 'Division of General Internal Medicine, Massachusetts General Hospital, Boston, MA; Department of Medicine, Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Steven J', 'Initials': 'SJ', 'LastName': 'Atlas', 'Affiliation': 'Division of General Internal Medicine, Massachusetts General Hospital, Boston, MA; Department of Medicine, Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA.'}, {'ForeName': 'David D', 'Initials': 'DD', 'LastName': 'McManus', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Medicine, University of Massachusetts Medical School, Worcester, MA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Yuchiao', 'Initials': 'Y', 'LastName': 'Chang', 'Affiliation': 'Division of General Internal Medicine, Massachusetts General Hospital, Boston, MA; Department of Medicine, Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Ana T', 'Initials': 'AT', 'LastName': 'Trisini Lipsanopoulos', 'Affiliation': 'Cardiovascular Research Center and Cardiac Arrhythmia Service, Massachusetts General Hospital, Boston, MA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Leila H', 'Initials': 'LH', 'LastName': 'Borowsky', 'Affiliation': 'Division of General Internal Medicine, Massachusetts General Hospital, Boston, MA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Wyliena', 'Initials': 'W', 'LastName': 'Guan', 'Affiliation': 'Cardiovascular Research Center and Cardiac Arrhythmia Service, Massachusetts General Hospital, Boston, MA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Wei', 'Initials': 'W', 'LastName': 'He', 'Affiliation': 'Division of General Internal Medicine, Massachusetts General Hospital, Boston, MA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Patrick T', 'Initials': 'PT', 'LastName': 'Ellinor', 'Affiliation': 'Cardiovascular Research Center and Cardiac Arrhythmia Service, Massachusetts General Hospital, Boston, MA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Daniel E', 'Initials': 'DE', 'LastName': 'Singer', 'Affiliation': 'Division of General Internal Medicine, Massachusetts General Hospital, Boston, MA; Department of Medicine, Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Steven A', 'Initials': 'SA', 'LastName': 'Lubitz', 'Affiliation': 'Cardiovascular Research Center and Cardiac Arrhythmia Service, Massachusetts General Hospital, Boston, MA.

1867,32042773,PEEP guided by electrical impedance tomography during one-lung ventilation in elderly patients undergoing thoracoscopic surgery.,"Background
To examine the influence of positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) settings on lung mechanics and oxygenation in elderly patients undergoing thoracoscopic surgery.
Methods
One hundred patients aged >65 years were randomly allocated into either the PEEP 5 or the electrical impedance tomography (EIT) group (PEEP EIT ). Each group underwent volume-controlled ventilation (tidal volume 6 mL/kg predicted body weight) with the PEEP either fixed at 5 cmH 2 O or set at an individualized EIT setting. The primary endpoint was the ratio of the arterial oxygen partial pressure to the fractional inspired oxygen (PaO 2 /FiO 2 ). The secondary endpoints included the driving pressure, and dynamic respiratory system compliance (C dyn ). Other outcomes, such as the mean airway pressure (P mean ), mean arterial pressure (MAP), lung complications and the length of hospital stay were explored.
Results
The optimal PEEP set by EIT was significantly higher (range from 9-13 cmH 2 O) than the fixed PEEP. PaO 2 /FiO 2 was 47 mmHg higher (95% CI: 7-86 mmHg; P=0.021), C dyn was 4.3 mL/cmH 2 O higher (95% CI: 2.1-6.7 cmH 2 O; P<0.001), and the driving pressure was 3.7 cmH 2 O lower (95% CI: 2.2-5.1 mmH 2 O; P<0.001) at 0.5 h during one-lung ventilation (OLV) in the PEEP EIT group than in the PEEP 5 group. At 1 h during OLV, PaO 2 /FiO 2 was 93 mmHg higher (95% CI: 58-128 mmHg; P<0.001), C dyn was 4.4 mL/cmH 2 O higher (95% CI: 1.9-6.9 mL/cmH 2 O; P=0.001), and the driving pressure was 4.9 cmH 2 O lower (95% CI: 3.8-6.1 cmH 2 O; P<0.001) in the PEEP EIT group than in the PEEP 5 group. PaO 2 /FiO 2 was 107 mmHg higher (95% CI: 56-158 mmHg; P<0.001) in the PEEP EIT group than in the PEEP 5 group during double-lung ventilation at the end of surgery.

1868,32222580,Use of sound-elicited fetal heart rate accelerations to assess fetal hearing in the second and third trimester.,"OBJECTIVES
We previously reported that fetal heart rate (FHR) accelerations could be obtained after fetal sound stimulation. We examined FHR accelerations during 20-37 weeks gestational age (GA) in order to assess the optimal time for the test.
METHODS
The fetus was stimulated from the maternal abdomen with pure tone 2000 Hz, 90 dB, 5 s. Changes in the FHR before and after the sound stimulation were measured by a cardiotocometer.
RESULTS
Compared with the positive rate of FHR accelerations at 20-21 weeks GA, significant increases were recognized in 26-27, 28 to 29, 30 to 31, and 34-35 weeks GA. Comparing the positive rate of FHR accelerations between the minimal and moderate variability of FHR baseline, no significant differences were observed at 20-27 weeks GA. On the other hand, at 28-37 weeks GA, the positive rate to detect FHR accelerations due to sound stimulation was 100% in moderate FHR baseline variability.
CONCLUSION
Considering development of human fetal hearing, the method should be performed between 28 and 37 weeks GA and during moderate FHR variability corresponding to active sleep conditions. The method developed in the present study may provide a promising tool for evaluating the fetal hearing.",2020,"Comparing the positive rate of FHR accelerations between the minimal and moderate variability of FHR baseline, no significant differences were observed at 20-27 weeks GA.",[],['sound-elicited fetal heart rate accelerations'],"['positive rate to detect FHR accelerations', 'positive rate of FHR accelerations', 'fetal heart rate (FHR) accelerations', 'fetal hearing', 'FHR accelerations']",[],"[{'cui': 'C1293120', 'cui_str': 'Sounding'}, {'cui': 'C0018811', 'cui_str': 'Heart Rate, Fetal'}, {'cui': 'C0000894', 'cui_str': 'Acceleration'}]","[{'cui': 'C1446409', 'cui_str': 'Positive (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0442726', 'cui_str': 'Detected (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0000894', 'cui_str': 'Acceleration'}, {'cui': 'C0018811', 'cui_str': 'Heart Rate, Fetal'}]",,0.0568937,"Comparing the positive rate of FHR accelerations between the minimal and moderate variability of FHR baseline, no significant differences were observed at 20-27 weeks GA.","[{'ForeName': 'Remi', 'Initials': 'R', 'LastName': 'Hibiya-Motegi', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Otorhinolaryngology, Juntendo University Faculty of Medicine, Tokyo, Japan.'}, {'ForeName': 'Marina', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Nakayama', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Mechanical Engineering and Intelligent Systems, Graduate School of Informatics and Engineering, The University of Electro-Communications, Tokyo, Japan.'}, {'ForeName': 'Rina', 'Initials': 'R', 'LastName': 'Matsuoka', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Otorhinolaryngology, Juntendo University Faculty of Medicine, Tokyo, Japan.'}, {'ForeName': 'Jun', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Takeda', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Juntendo University Faculty of Medicine, Tokyo, Japan.'}, {'ForeName': 'Shuko', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Nojiri', 'Affiliation': 'Medical Technology Innovation Center Clinical Research, Trial Center Juntendo University, Tokyo, Japan.'}, {'ForeName': 'Atsuo', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Itakura', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Juntendo University Faculty of Medicine, Tokyo, Japan.'}, {'ForeName': 'Takuji', 'Initials': 'T', 'LastName': 'Koike', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Mechanical Engineering and Intelligent Systems, Graduate School of Informatics and Engineering, The University of Electro-Communications, Tokyo, Japan.'}, {'ForeName': 'Katsuhisa', 'Initials': 'K', 'LastName': 'Ikeda', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Otorhinolaryngology, Juntendo University Faculty of Medicine, Tokyo, Japan.

1869,31746629,Role of the carotid chemoreceptors in insulin-mediated sympathoexcitation in humans.,"We examined the contribution of the carotid chemoreceptors to insulin-mediated increases in muscle sympathetic nerve activity (MSNA) in healthy humans. We hypothesized that reductions in carotid chemoreceptor activity would attenuate the sympathoexcitatory response to hyperinsulinemia. Young, healthy adults (9 male/9 female, 28 ± 1 yr, 24 ± 1 kg/m 2 ) completed a 30-min euglycemic baseline followed by a 90-min hyperinsulinemic (1 mU·kg fat-free mass -1 ·min -1 ), euglycemic infusion. MSNA (microneurography of the peroneal nerve) was continuously measured. The role of the carotid chemoreceptors was assessed at baseline and during hyperinsulinemia via 1 ) acute hyperoxia, 2 ) low-dose dopamine (1-4 µg·kg -1 ·min -1 ), and 3 ) acute hyperoxia + low-dose dopamine. MSNA burst frequency increased from baseline during hyperinsulinemia ( P < 0.01). Acute hyperoxia had no effect on MSNA burst frequency at rest ( P = 0.74) or during hyperinsulinemia ( P = 0.83). The insulin-mediated increase in MSNA burst frequency ( P = 0.02) was unaffected by low-dose dopamine ( P = 0.60).

1872,29067219,Driving with Hemianopia V: Do Individuals with Hemianopia Spontaneously Adapt Their Gaze Scanning to Differing Hazard Detection Demands?,"PURPOSE
We investigated whether people with homonymous hemianopia (HH) were able to spontaneously (without training or instructions) adapt their blind-side scan magnitudes in response to differing scanning requirements for detection of pedestrians in a driving simulator when differing cues about pedestrian eccentricities and movement behaviors were available in the seeing hemifield.
METHODS
Twelve HH participants completed two sessions in a driving simulator pressing the horn when they detected a pedestrian. Stationary pedestrians outside the driving lane were presented in one session and approaching pedestrians on a collision course in the other. Gaze data were analyzed for pedestrians initially appearing at approximately 14° in the blind hemifield. No instructions were given regarding scanning.
RESULTS
After appearing, the stationary pedestrians' eccentricity increased rapidly to a median of 31° after 2.5 seconds, requiring increasingly larger blind-side gaze scans for detection, while the approaching pedestrians' eccentricity remained constant at approximately 14°, requiring a more moderate scan (∼14°) for detection. Although median scan magnitudes did not differ between the two conditions (approaching: 14° [IQR 9°-15°]; stationary: 13° [IQR 9°-20°]; P = 0.43), three participants showed evidence of adapting (increasing) their blind-side scan magnitudes in the stationary condition.
CONCLUSIONS
Three participants (25%) appeared to be able to apply voluntary cognitive control to modify their blind-side gaze scanning in response to the differing scanning requirements of the two conditions without explicit training.

Materials and methods: About 394 patients cluster-randomized 2010-2014 at a university hospital. Control group with standard postoperative precautions to reduce dislocations, mandatory assistive devices and knee brace for 6 weeks (in cognitively impaired) compared to non-precaution group with assistive devices only if needed. Postal questionnaire at 6 weeks and 3 months. Results: Both prescription and usage of reacher were higher in the precaution group. About 55% of patients with precautions was instructed to use stocking aids, 21% continued to do so. Significantly fewer without precautions, 11%, used it at 3 months. Raised toilet seat was used by ∼40% of all pre-fracture and was prescribed to 79% with precautions. It was unchanged at 42% in non-precaution group. Nevertheless, 64% in non-precaution group used a raised toilet both at 6 weeks and 3 months. The usage persisted around 70% in precaution group. Usage of raised chair/bed were similar, even if non-precaution patients was not prescribed such. In the precaution group, 102 were prescribed a knee brace, only 5 used it at 6 weeks. Conclusions: The use of assistive devices did not follow what was prescribed from the hospital, regardless of precautions or not. The use of higher furniture was similar regardless of precautions or not. Other devices were more common in the precaution group. The compliance of knee bracing was low, and bracing should not be standard-of-care.Implications for rehabilitationHemiarthroplasty is the most common treatment of displaced femoral neck fracture in elderly. Dislocation occur in 2 to 10% of these patients, and traditionally patients have been instructed to be careful when moving their leg and to use a number of assistive devices, in order to reduce the dislocation risk.The evidence base for such precautions is weak and occupational therapy and assistive devices may be costly. The current study shows that prescriptions and instructions from occupational therapists in hospital is more or less not follow after dismissal.Assistive devices should be prescribed based on the hip fracture patient's true functional needs, and not routinely or due to arthroplasty precautions.",2019,"Nevertheless, 64% in non-precaution group used a raised toilet both at 6 weeks and 3 months.","['fracture patients with or without hip precautions', 'About 394 patients cluster-randomized 2010-2014 at a university hospital', 'displaced femoral neck fracture in elderly']","['assistive devices', 'rehabilitation Hemiarthroplasty', 'hemiarthroplasty']",[],"[{'cui': 'C0016658', 'cui_str': 'Fractures, Bone'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C0019552', 'cui_str': 'Coxa'}, {'cui': 'C0020028', 'cui_str': 'Hospitals, University'}, {'cui': 'C0012727', 'cui_str': 'Displacement (morphologic abnormality)'}, {'cui': 'C0015806', 'cui_str': 'Femur Neck Fractures'}, {'cui': 'C0001792', 'cui_str': 'Elderly'}]","[{'cui': 'C0036605', 'cui_str': 'Assistive Technology'}, {'cui': 'C1306847', 'cui_str': 'Rehabilitation - specialty'}, {'cui': 'C0744743', 'cui_str': 'Hemi-Arthroplasty'}]",[],,0.0394824,"Nevertheless, 64% in non-precaution group used a raised toilet both at 6 weeks and 3 months.","[{'ForeName': 'Cecilia', 'Initials': 'C', 'LastName': 'Rogmark', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Orthopedics, Skane University Hospital, Malmö, Sweden.'}, {'ForeName': 'Ammar', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Jobory', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Orthopedics, Skane University Hospital, Malmö, Sweden.'}, {'ForeName': 'Oscar', 'Initials': 'O', 'LastName': 'Unger', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Orthopedics, Skane University Hospital, Malmö, Sweden.'}, {'ForeName': 'Inger', 'Initials': 'I', 'LastName': 'Nilsson', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Orthopedics, Skane University Hospital, Malmö, Sweden.'}, {'ForeName': 'Louise', 'Initials': 'L', 'LastName': 'Dahlqvist', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Orthopedics, Skane University Hospital, Malmö, Sweden.'}]",Disability and rehabilitation.

1874,31392812,"Modelling the potential prevention benefits of a treat-all hepatitis C treatment strategy at global, regional and country levels: A modelling study.","The World Health Organization (WHO) recently produced guidelines advising a treat-all policy for HCV to encourage widespread treatment scale-up for achieving HCV elimination. We modelled the prevention impact achieved (HCV infections averted [IA]) from initiating this policy compared with treating different subgroups at country, regional and global levels. We assessed what country-level factors affect impact. A dynamic, deterministic HCV transmission model was calibrated to data from global systematic reviews and UN data sets to simulate country-level HCV epidemics with ongoing levels of treatment. For each country, the model projected the prevention impact (in HCV IA per treatment undertaken) of initiating four treatment strategies; either selected randomly (treat-all) or targeted among people who inject drugs (PWID), people aged ≥35, or those with cirrhosis. The IA was assessed over 20 years. Linear regression was used to identify associations between IA per treatment and demographic factors. Eighty-eight countries (85% of the global population) were modelled. Globally, the model estimated 0.35 (95% credibility interval [95%CrI]: 0.16-0.61) IA over 20 years for every randomly allocated treatment, 0.30 (95%CrI: 0.12-0.53) from treating those aged ≥35 and 0.28 (95%CrI: 0.12-0.49) for those with cirrhosis. Globally, treating PWID achieved 1.27 (95%CrI: 0.68-2.04) IA per treatment. The IA per randomly allocated treatment was positively associated with a country's population growth rate and negatively associated with higher HCV prevalence among PWID. In conclusion, appreciable prevention benefits could be achieved from WHO's treat-all strategy, although greater benefits per treatment can be achieved through targeting PWID.

This paper describes the population exposure-response (E-R) modeling and simulations, which were used to inform the phase III dose-selection rationale, based on ~ 800 participants pooled across two phase IIb randomized dose-finding clinical trials. The E-R model describes the placebo and ubrogepant treatment effects based on migraine pain end points (2-hour pain relief and 2-hour pain freedom) at various dose levels. Sensitivity analyses were conducted to evaluate various assumptions of placebo response in light of the high placebo response observed in one phase II trial. A population pharmacokinetic model describing the effect of formulations was included in the E-R simulation framework to assess potential dose implications of a formulation switch from phase II to phase III. Model-based simulations predict that a dose of 25 mg or higher is likely to achieve significantly better efficacy than placebo with desirable efficacy levels.

1876,31404538,A mixed-methods study of provider perspectives on My Birth Control: a contraceptive decision support tool designed to facilitate shared decision making.,"OBJECTIVES
Barriers to the provision of patient-centered contraceptive counseling include time limitations, frequent misconceptions and misinformation about methods among patients, and the availability of numerous contraceptive options, which increases the complexity of contraceptive decision making. Decision support tools are interventions designed to facilitate quality decision making in preference-sensitive decisions. We evaluated the impact of a contraceptive decision support tool, My Birth Control, on providers' experience with contraceptive counseling.
STUDY DESIGN
We interviewed 15 providers who participated in the intervention arm of a cluster randomized controlled trial of My Birth Control to obtain their impressions of their patients' interactions with the tool. We analyzed the interviews using thematic analysis, compared appointment lengths of patients in each arm (n=749) and assessed provider burnout in each arm (n=28).
RESULTS
Providers reported that incorporating My Birth Control into their practice helped them allocate time more efficiently, enabling them to hone in on patients' areas of interest. They also reported that patients who interacted with the tool appeared more informed about contraception options and features, and took a more active role in method selection. All providers described using the tool as acceptable and feasible, and indicated they would like to incorporate it into their practice. There was no difference in provider burnout scores comparing before and after the trial of My Birth Control.
CONCLUSION
Providers had a positive impression of the impact of My Birth Control on contraceptive counseling, including the quality of counseling, and perceived the tool to be a feasible intervention to use in the clinical setting.
IMPLICATIONS
Family planning clinics should consider incorporating My Birth Control into their clinical services as a means of improving contraceptive care and provider experience of counseling.",2019,"There was no difference in provider burnout scores comparing before and after the trial of My Birth Control.

1879,30988478,A values-alignment intervention protects adolescents from the effects of food marketing.,"Adolescents are exposed to extensive marketing for junk food, which drives overconsumption by creating positive emotional associations with junk food 1-6 . Here we counter this influence with an intervention that frames manipulative food marketing as incompatible with important adolescent values, including social justice and autonomy from adult control.

1881,31116468,Issues in the determination of 'responders' and 'non-responders' in physiological research.,"NEW FINDINGS
What is the topic for this review? We discuss the dichotomization of continuous-level physiological measurements into 'responders' and 'non-responders' when interventions/treatments are examined in robust parallel-group studies. What advances does it highlight? Sample responder counts are biased by pre-to-post within-subject variability. Sample differences in counts may be explained wholly by differences in mean response, even without individual response heterogeneity and even if test-retest measurement error informs the choice of response threshold. A less biased and more informative approach uses the SD of individual responses to estimate the chance a new person from the population of interest will be a responder.
ABSTRACT
As a follow-up to our 2015 review, we cover more issues on the topic of 'response heterogeneity', which we define as clinically important individual differences in the physiological responses to the same treatment/intervention that cannot be attributed to random within-subject variability. We highlight various pitfalls with the common practice of counting the number of 'responders', 'non-responders' and 'adverse responders' in samples that have been given certain treatments or interventions for research purposes. We focus on the classical parallel-group randomized controlled trial and assume typical good practice in trial design. We show that sample responder counts are biased because individuals differ in terms of pre-to-post within-subject random variability in the study outcome(s) and not necessarily treatment response. Ironically, sample differences in responder counts may be explained wholly by sample differences in mean response, even if there is no response heterogeneity at all. Sample comparisons of responder counts also have relatively low statistical precision. These problems do not depend on how the response threshold has been selected, e.g. on the basis of a measurement error statistic, and are not rectified fully by the use of confidence intervals for individual responses in the sample. The dichotomization of individual responses in a research sample is fraught with pitfalls. Less biased approaches for estimating the proportion of responders in a population of interest are now available. Importantly, these approaches are based on the SD for true individual responses, directly incorporating information from the control group.",2019,"A less biased and more informative approach uses the SD of individual responses to estimate the chance a new person from the population of interest will be a responder.

1883,31553474,How and when informative visit processes can bias inference when using electronic health records data for clinical research.,"OBJECTIVE
Electronic health records (EHR) data have become a central data source for clinical research. One concern for using EHR data is that the process through which individuals engage with the health system, and find themselves within EHR data, can be informative. We have termed this process informed presence. In this study we use simulation and real data to assess how the informed presence can impact inference.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
We first simulated a visit process where a series of biomarkers were observed informatively and uninformatively over time. We further compared inference derived from a randomized control trial (ie, uninformative visits) and EHR data (ie, potentially informative visits).
RESULTS
We find that only when there is both a strong association between the biomarker and the outcome as well as the biomarker and the visit process is there bias. Moreover, once there are some uninformative visits this bias is mitigated. In the data example we find, that when the ""true"" associations are null, there is no observed bias.
DISCUSSION
These results suggest that an informative visit process can exaggerate an association but cannot induce one. Furthermore, careful study design can, mitigate the potential bias when some noninformative visits are included.
CONCLUSIONS
While there are legitimate concerns regarding biases that ""messy"" EHR data may induce, the conditions for such biases are extreme and can be accounted for.",2019,"We further compared inference derived from a randomized control trial (ie, uninformative visits) and EHR data (ie, potentially informative visits).

1884,30814028,Growth in HIV-1-exposed but uninfected infants treated with lopinavir-ritonavir versus lamivudine: a secondary analysis of the ANRS 12174 trial.,"BACKGROUND
The tolerance of antiretroviral drugs in infants must be carefully evaluated. In previous studies of children with HIV type 1 (HIV-1) less weight gain was observed in children given lopinavir-ritonavir-based combinations than those given nevirapine. We aimed to compare the effects of lopinavir-ritonavir and lamivudine on growth in HIV-exposed uninfected infants included in the ANRS 12174 trial.
METHODS
ANRS 12174 was a multicentre, randomised, controlled trial of infant prophylaxis to prevent HIV-1 transmission by breastfeeding done at four antenatal clinics in Burkina Faso, South Africa, Uganda, and Zambia. HIV-exposed uninfected infants born to asymptomatic mothers not eligible for antiretroviral therapy (CD4 count >350 cells per μL) were randomly assigned (1:1) to receive lopinavir-ritonavir or lamivudine 7 days after birth, with stratification by country. In a prespecified secondary analysis, we assessed the effect of lopinavir-ritonavir and lamivudine on the growth of these infants from day 7 until cessation of breastfeeding (maximum treatment time 12 months) in the modified intention-to-treat population, which included all children correctly enrolled with at least one follow-up anthropometric measurement. We compared the growth of infants, defined as children's WHO-defined length-for-age Z score (LAZ), weight-for-length Z score (WAZ), and weight-for-age Z score (WLZ). We used linear mixed effect and β spline-regression models to compare growth between the treatment groups. The trial is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, number NCT00640263.
FINDINGS
1273 HIV-exposed uninfected infants and their mothers were enrolled between Nov 16, 2009, and May 7, 2013, of whom 1266 (99%) infants were included in the modified intention-to-treat analysis (630 assigned to lopinavir-ritonavir, 636 assigned to lamivudine). Baseline characteristics of the infants and mothers were similar across the two treatment groups. No differences in least-squares (LS) mean LAZ were identified between the treatment groups at any timepoint. LS mean WLZ was significantly lower in the lopinavir-ritonavir group than the lamivudine group at 26 weeks (difference -0·22 [95% CI -0·34 to -0·09], p=0·0006) and 50 weeks (-0·25 [-0·47 to -0·04], p=0·02). LS mean WAZ was also significantly lower in the lopinavir-ritonavir group than the lamivudine group at 26 weeks (difference -0·18 [95% CI -0·30 to -0·05], p=0·01) and 50 weeks (-0·24 [-0·45 to -0·05], p=0·02). Linear mixed models showed that lopinavir-ritonavir was associated with decreases in WLZ and WAZ over time (p<0·0001 and p=0·002), whereas spline regression models indicated that these reductions occurred early and remained constant thereafter (p<0·0001 with a knot at 44 days for WLZ; p=0·02 with a knot at 118 days for WAZ). The difference in LS mean WLZ at 50 weeks between the treatment groups was higher among girls than boys (difference -0·29 [95% CI -0·58 to 0·01], p=0·05 for girls; -0·22 [-0·53 to 0·09], p=0·18 for boys).
INTERPRETATION
Less weight gain was observed in infants given lopinavir-ritonavir than those given lamivudine, which is indicative of a persistent effect that could have long-term deleterious effects. This finding merits attention considering the recommendations for early and lifelong treatment of infants with HIV.

1886,31889507,Prevalence of Group A Streptococcus in Primary Care Patients and the Utility of C-Reactive Protein and Clinical Scores for Its Identification in Thailand.,"Pharyngitis is usually caused by a viral infection for which antibiotics are often unnecessarily prescribed, adding to the burden of antimicrobial resistance. Identifying who needs antibiotics is challenging; microbiological confirmation and clinical scores are used but have limitations. In a cross-sectional study nested within a randomized controlled trial, we estimated the prevalence and antibiotic susceptibility profiles of group A Streptococcus (GAS) in patients presenting to primary care with a sore throat and fever in northern Thailand. We then evaluated the use of C-reactive protein (CRP) and clinical scores (Centor and FeverPAIN) to identify the presence of GAS. One hundred sixty-nine patients were enrolled, of whom 35 (20.7%) had β-hemolytic Streptococci (BHS) isolated from throat swab culture, and 11 (6.5%) had GAS. All GAS isolates were sensitive to penicillin G. The median CRP of those without BHS isolation was 10 mg/L (interquartile range [IQR] ≤ 8-18), compared with 18 mg/L (IQR 9-71, P = 0.0302) for those with GAS and 14 mg/L (IQR ≤ 8-38, P = 0.0516) for those with any BHS isolated. However, there were no significant relationships between CRP > 8 mg/L ( P = 0.112), Centor ≥ 3 ( P = 0.212), and FeverPAIN ≥ 4 ( P = 1.000), and the diagnosis of GAS compared with no BHS isolation.

1888,32126551,Frequency and Clinical Impact of Serious Adverse Events on Post-Stroke Recovery with NeuroAiD (MLC601) versus Placebo: The CHInese Medicine Neuroaid Efficacy on Stroke Recovery Study.,"BACKGROUND
Most comparative clinical trials are designed to assess the treatment effect for efficacy endpoints, with less emphasis on the analysis of safety outcomes. However, an extensive analysis of safety data could demonstrate beneficial results in terms of effectiveness by reducing serious adverse events (SAEs), and their unfavourable clinical impact on the study population. We aimed to conduct an exploratory analysis of the CHInese Medicine Neuroaid Efficacy on Stroke recovery (CHIMES) study safety database comparing the frequency of SAEs and their clinical impacts among subjects having received MLC601 or placebo during the first 3 months post-stroke.
METHODS
Analyses were performed by using the safety database of the multicentre, randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled CHIMES study of 3 months of NeuroAiD versus placebo in subjects with acute ischaemic stroke of intermediate severity in the preceding 72 h. SAEs as reported by investigators at any time-point during the 3-month study were analysed on their frequency and that of any of their outcomes (death, and life threatening, new and/or prolonged hospitalisation, disability, and medical importance, in surviving subjects), as well as their time to onset and resolution.
RESULTS
Of the 1,099 subjects in the CHIMES study, 1,087 were included in the safety analysis (MLC601 = 542) and (placebo = 545); the 12 who did not receive study treatment were excluded. There was a total of 135 subjects with SAEs (MLC601 = 60, placebo = 75). At baseline, overall, subjects with SAEs were older and had lower MMSE score. In the MLC601 group, they had higher NIHSS score, and more frequently a history of ischaemic heart disease and hyperlipidaemia. The number of SAEs per subjects was statistically significantly lower in the MLC601 group than placebo one, especially for subjects with ≥2 SAEs (6.7 vs. 29.3%; p < 0.001). This benefit was seen throughout the study period and during the initial hospitalisation. The main clinical impact of SAEs was an increase in hospitalisation time, reduced in the MLC601 arm with the rate of subjects hospitalised for a prolonged period being significantly threefold lower in surviving subjects (1.1 vs. 3.7%; p < 0.01).
CONCLUSIONS
This post hoc analysis of SAEs from the CHIMES study database shows that subjects receiving a 3-month course of MLC601 experienced fewer SAEs, with lower rates of harmful clinical impacts, especially in terms of hospitalisation duration. These findings could translate to a benefit in terms of reduction of both healthcare burden and additional medical costs.",2020,"The main clinical impact of SAEs was an increase in hospitalisation time, reduced in the MLC601 arm with the rate of subjects hospitalised for a prolonged period being significantly threefold lower in surviving subjects (1.1 vs. 3.7%; p < 0.01).

1889,31984781,"To attend, or not to attend: Examining caregiver intentions and study compliance in a pediatric, randomized controlled trial.","BACKGROUND/AIMS
The Intent to Attend is a brief questionnaire recommended by the National Research Council to address dropout concerns and improve prediction of missing data in clinical trials, although implementation has been very limited. As a formative study in pediatric research, the relationship between caregiver intentions and study compliance was investigated in a 180-day trial of dietary supplementation of preterm toddlers. Treatment effect estimation in the context of missing data was also explored.
METHODS
Study compliance (i.e. study completion, supplement adherence, and diary completion) was tracked over three study visits. Baseline questionnaires asked caregivers about intentions concerning study completion via the Intent to Attend , screened for mental health symptoms (depression, trait anxiety), and captured family demographics. Simple and multiple logistic regression models were built to examine associations between caregiver intent and compliance outcomes. The Intent to Attend was also employed as an auxiliary variable to account for missing data within mixed models estimating the treatment effect on the primary outcomes.
RESULTS
Of the 316 caregiver-child dyads included, 95% of caregivers with low intentions had a child complete the study, but only 87% of caregivers with high intentions had a child complete the study. Low intentions to complete the study were associated with a more than 60% lower odds of study non-completion, but the confidence interval included the null (odds ratio: 0.36; 95% confidence interval: 0.11, 1.20). No effect measure modification by caregiver mental health, child sex, or annual income was detected. Income was the only significant predictor of study non-completion; the lowest income group was almost four times more likely to be study non-completers compared with the highest income group, even after adjustment for child sex and caregiver mental health (adjusted odds ratio = 3.59, 95% confidence interval: 1.38, 9.31). When using Intent to Attend as an auxiliary variable, similar results were obtained when compared with the original treatment effect estimates on the primary outcomes.
CONCLUSION
Contrary to prior adult studies, there is no clear relationship between caregiver intentions and study compliance.

1890,32129851,Does improving appropriate use of malaria medicines change population beliefs in testing and treatment? Evidence from a randomized controlled trial.,"A major puzzle in malaria treatment remains the dual problem of underuse and overuse of malaria medications, which deplete scarce public resources used for subsidies and lead to drug resistance. One explanation is that health behaviour, especially in the context of incomplete information, could be driven by beliefs, pivotal to the success of health interventions. The objective of this study is to investigate how population beliefs change in response to an experimental intervention which was shown to improve access to rapid diagnostic testing (RDT) through community health workers (CHWs) and to increase appropriate use of anti-malaria medications. By collecting data on individuals' beliefs on malaria testing and treatment 12 and 18 months after the experimental intervention started, we find that the intervention increases the belief that a negative test result is correct, and the belief that the first-line anti-malaria drugs (artemisinin-based combination therapies or ACTs) are effective. Using mediation analysis, we also explore some possible mechanisms through which the changes happen. We find that the experience and knowledge about RDT and experience with CHWs explain 62.4% of the relationship between the intervention and the belief that a negative test result is correct. Similarly, the targeted use of ACTs and taking the correct dose-in addition to experience with RDT-explain 96.8% of the relationship between the intervention and the belief that the ACT taken is effective. As beliefs are important determinants of economic behaviour and might guide individuals' future decisions, understanding how they change after a health intervention has important implications for long-term changes in population behaviour.",2020,"By collecting data on individuals' beliefs on malaria testing and treatment 12 and 18 months after the experimental intervention started, we find that the intervention increases the belief that a negative test result is correct, and the belief that the first-line anti-malaria drugs (artemisinin-based combination therapies or ACTs) are effective.",[],[],[],[],[],[],,0.0229243,"By collecting data on individuals' beliefs on malaria testing and treatment 12 and 18 months after the experimental intervention started, we find that the intervention increases the belief that a negative test result is correct, and the belief that the first-line anti-malaria drugs (artemisinin-based combination therapies or ACTs) are effective.","[{'ForeName': 'Elisa M', 'Initials': 'EM', 'LastName': 'Maffioli', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Health Management and Policy, University of Michigan School of Public Health, Ann Arbor, MI 48109, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Manoj', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Mohanan', 'Affiliation': 'Sanford School of Public Policy, Duke University, Durham, NC 27708, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Indrani', 'Initials': 'I', 'LastName': 'Saran', 'Affiliation': 'Boston College School of Social Work, Boston, MA 02467, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Wendy Prudhomme', 'Initials': 'WP', 'LastName': ""O'Meara"", 'Affiliation': 'Duke Global Health Institute, Duke University, Durham, NC 27708, USA.'}]",Health policy and planning,['10.1093/heapol/czaa010']
1891,32193277,Maximising trichiasis surgery success (MTSS) trial: rationale and design of a randomised controlled trial to improve trachomatous trichiasis surgical outcomes.,"INTRODUCTION
Trachomatous trichiasis (TT) is a condition in which the eyelid turns inward and eyelashes abrade the front part of the eye. To prevent eventual blindness, surgery is recommended. Two surgical procedures are commonly used, bilamellar tarsal rotation (BLTR) and posterior lamellar tarsal rotation (PLTR). Evidence suggests that incision height and surgery type may affect the risk of postoperative TT (PTT) and other surgical outcomes. However, these studies have not prospectively compared the impact of incision height on surgical outcomes.
METHODS AND ANALYSIS
Maximising trichiasis surgery Success (MTSS) is a three-arm, randomised clinical trial being conducted in Ethiopia. Participants will be randomly assigned on a 1:1:1 basis to BLTR with a 3 mm incision height, BLTR with a 5 mm incision height, or PLTR 3 mm incision height. Patients are eligible for the trial if they have previously unoperated upper eyelid TT. Follow-up visits will be conducted by trained eye examiners at 1 day, 2 weeks, 6 weeks and 12 months after surgery. The primary outcome is incident PTT within 1 year following surgery. Logistic regression will be used in an intention-to-treat analysis to assess outcome incidence by surgical approach.
ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION
The University of North Carolina and Johns Hopkins School of Medicine institution review boards, Ethiopian National Research Ethics Review Committee and Ethiopian Food, Medicine, Healthcare and Administration and Control Authority provided ethics approval for the trial. On completion, trial results will be disseminated at local and international meetings and in peer-reviewed journals.

1894,32134289,Performance feedback during writing instruction: A cost-effectiveness analysis.,"Students in K-12 settings experience poor writing outcomes, with less than 30% of students writing at the proficient level. Coupled with the pressure to improve academic outcomes with limited resources, schools are in dire need of efficient, universally provided instructional activities that promote writing skills. Performance feedback on writing fluency was designed to be a brief, low-resource universally provided instructional activity to facilitate writing development and has demonstrated moderate to large effects on formative writing measures. The current study was conducted to directly evaluate the extent to which performance feedback on writing fluency is cost-effective. This study uses the ingredients method to estimate the costs of providing performance feedback on writing fluency and calculates incremental cost-effectiveness ratios based on secondary data from a randomized controlled trial. Results suggest that performance feedback is more cost-effective than comprehensive systems reform initiatives and comparable to other universally provided interventions, and therefore should be considered a cost-effective approach to improve writing fluency for all students.

1895,31407775,The Effects of Vibration and Pressure Treatments in the Early Postoperative Period of Rhinoplasty.,"BACKGROUND
The early postoperative period can be distressing for the patients undergoing rhinoplasty since edema and ecchymosis are common complications.
OBJECTIVES
To analyze the effects of the vibration and pressure treatments in the early postoperative period of rhinoplasty.
METHODS
Sixty patients, who had undergone rhinoplasty, were randomized into 3 groups: group 1 (control group, n = 20) received classic nasal casting, group 2 (n = 20) received nasal cast with an elastic bandage to hold it on the face, and group 3 (n = 20) received vibration treatment in addition to that in group 2 following the rhinoplasty. They were evaluated preoperatively and postoperatively at 3 and 7 days in a prospective study. The postoperative edema and ecchymosis were scored by 2 independent surgeons. The postoperative pain was measured using the visual analog scale, and the necessity of anti-inflammatory medication (and the dose needed) and the cast comfort was questioned. The sebaceous activity of the nose skin was examined. A preoperative and postoperative seventh day sonographic study was performed to evaluate the tissue edema objectively.
RESULTS
The pressure treatment decreased the edema and ecchymosis significantly compared with the control group. The vibration treatment minimized edema, ecchymosis, sebaceous activity of the nose skin, pain score, and the need for anti-inflammatory medication, and increased the cast comfort significantly compared with the other groups (P < 0.0001).
CONCLUSIONS
Rapid regression of edema and ecchymosis may be achieved using the vibrating nasal cast technique that may minimize patient discomfort, pain, and sebaceous activity following rhinoplasty.

1896,31233255,Ziconotide for spinal cord injury-related pain.,"BACKGROUND
Central neuropathic pain related to spinal cord injury is notoriously difficult to treat. So far most pharmacological and surgical options have shown but poor results. Recently ziconotide has been approved for use both neuropathic and non-neuropathic pain. In this cohort study, we assessed responder rate and long-term efficacy of intrathecal ziconotide in patients with pain related to spinal cord injury.
METHODS
Patients presenting chronic neuropathic related to spinal cord lesions that was refractory to medical pain management were considered for inclusion. Those accepting were tested by lumbar puncture injection of ziconotide or continuous intrathecal infusion and if a significant decrease in pain scores (>40%) was noted they were implanted with a continuous infusion pump. They were then followed up for at least 1 year with constant assessment of the evolution of pain and side effects.
RESULTS
Out of the 20 patients tested 14 had a decrease in pain scores of more than 40% but only 11 (55%) were implanted with permanent pumps due to side effects and patient choice. These were followed up on average for 3.59 years (±1.94) and in eight patients an above threshold decrease in pain scores was maintained. Overall in patients that responded to the test baseline VAS was 7.91 and 4.31 at last follow-up with an average dose of 7.2 μg of ziconotide per day. Six patients (30%) did not respond to any test and in three patients side effects precluded pump implantation. No significant long-term effects of the molecule were noted.
CONCLUSION
This study shows response to intrathecal ziconotide test in 40% of the patients of a very specific population in whom other therapeutic options are not available. This data justifies the development further studies such as a long-term randomized controlled trial.
SIGNIFICANCE
Intrathecal Ziconotide is a posible alternative for the treatment of pain in patients with spinal cord injury and below level neuropathic pain.",2019,"No significant long term effects of the molecule were noted.

1897,31586371,Photogrammetric Analysis of Upper Cross Syndrome among Teachers and the Effects of National Academy of Sports Medicine Exercises with Ergonomic Intervention on the Syndrome.,"BACKGROUND
Hyperkyphosis is often accompanied by forward head and shoulder postures. Together, these three disorders are called ""Upper Cross Syndrome (UCS)"". We aimed to perform a photogrammetric analysis of UCS among teachers and to determine the effects of National Academy of Sports Medicine (NASM) exercises with ergonomic training interventions on the syndrome.
STUDY DESIGN
A semi-experimental study.
METHODS
Photogrammetric analysis was performed using the UCS software among teachers in order to determine the angles of forward head, rounded shoulders, and hyperkyphosis. Twenty-three teachers were selected purposefully and enrolled in Fasa City in 2018. They were randomly divided into experimental (n=12) and control (n=11) groups. Experimental group attended 12 wk of NASM exercises with ergonomic intervention but the control group did not participate in any regular exercise. The data were analyzed using paired t-test and differential independent t-test (P<0.05).
RESULTS
The results indicated a significant decrease in forward head (P=0.001), shoulder angles (P=0.000) and hyperkyphosis (P=0.003). The applied intervention had a 90% positive effect in reducing the forward head angle, an 88% positive effect in reducing the rounded shoulder angle and a 90% positive effect in reducing the kyphosis angle. However, the results for the control group did not show a significant difference for forward head, rounded shoulders, and hyperkyphosis angles.
CONCLUSION
The UCS software application can be used as an accurate instrument for measuring the extent of the UCS. Moreover, using NASM exercises can lead to a reduction in the UCS among teachers.",2019,"The results indicated a significant decrease in forward head (P=0.001), shoulder angles (P=0.000) and hyperkyphosis (P=0.003).",['Twenty-three teachers were selected purposefully and enrolled in Fasa City in 2018'],"['NASM exercises', 'NASM exercises with ergonomic intervention but the control group did not participate in any regular exercise', 'Sports Medicine Exercises with Ergonomic Intervention', 'Sports Medicine (NASM) exercises with ergonomic training interventions']","['kyphosis angle', 'forward head', 'shoulder angles', 'rounded shoulder angle']","[{'cui': 'C0450348', 'cui_str': '23 (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0221457', 'cui_str': 'Teacher (occupation)'}, {'cui': 'C0008848', 'cui_str': 'Cities'}]","[{'cui': 'C0015259', 'cui_str': 'Physical Activity'}, {'cui': 'C0086246', 'cui_str': 'Ergonomics'}, {'cui': 'C0009932', 'cui_str': 'Control Groups'}, {'cui': 'C1299585', 'cui_str': 'Does not (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0582191', 'cui_str': 'Regular exercise (observable entity)'}, {'cui': 'C0038040', 'cui_str': 'Sports Medicine'}, {'cui': 'C0220931', 'cui_str': 'Functional training'}]","[{'cui': 'C0022823'}, {'cui': 'C0205143', 'cui_str': 'Angular (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0439780', 'cui_str': 'Forward (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0018670', 'cui_str': 'Head'}, {'cui': 'C0037004', 'cui_str': 'Shoulder'}]",23.0,0.0166266,"The results indicated a significant decrease in forward head (P=0.001), shoulder angles (P=0.000) and hyperkyphosis (P=0.003).","[{'ForeName': 'Razieh', 'Initials': 'R', 'LastName': 'Karimian', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Sports Injuries and Corrective Exercises, School of Sport Sciences, University of Isfahan, Isfahan, Iran.'}, {'ForeName': 'Nader', 'Initials': 'N', 'LastName': 'Rahnama', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Sports Injuries and Corrective Exercises, School of Sport Sciences, University of Isfahan, Isfahan, Iran. rahnamanader@yahoo.com.'}, {'ForeName': 'Gholamali', 'Initials': 'G', 'LastName': 'Ghasemi', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Sports Injuries and Corrective Exercises, School of Sport Sciences, University of Isfahan, Isfahan, Iran.'}, {'ForeName': 'Shahram', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Lenjannejadian', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Sports Injuries and Corrective Exercises, School of Sport Sciences, University of Isfahan, Isfahan, Iran.'}]",Journal of research in health sciences,[]
1898,31586376,Examining the Effectiveness of a Web-Based Intervention for Depressive Symptoms in Female Adolescents: Applying Social Cognitive Theory.,"BACKGROUND
Depression is a serious mental health illness among adolescents especially girls. Web-based treatment can possibly become a solution for reducing mental health problems in adolescents. This study is one of the first trials aimed to evaluate the efficiency of web-based depression improvement program among female adolescents based on the Social Cognitive Theory (SCT).
STUDY DESIGN
Randomized Controlled Trial.
METHODS
A six-month randomized controlled trial based on the SCT was implemented in female schools in Hamadan City, west of Iran in 2018 on 128 female students with mild to moderate depressive symptoms (CES-D =10-45). They were randomly assigned to either intervention or control group (n= 64 in each group). Depression improvement program was implemented through the website via short videos, animations and Power-Point slides. Depression was evaluated using Center for Epidemiologic Depression Scale. A researcher-made questionnaire based on the sheerer and Perceived-Social-Support-Scale-Revised (PSSS-R) questionnaires were used to evaluate the SCT constructs. The data were analyzed using SPSS software.
RESULTS
The intervention program resulted in the improvement of depression in 12 wk based on Intent-to-treat analyses. Nevertheless, these achievements seem to have decreased by 24 wk in intervention group. The intervention increased the mean scores of the constructs of social support and self-regulation from baseline to 12 wk in the intervention group (P<0.05). The intervention had no effect on outcome expectations and self-efficacy. There were no statistically significant associated between theory constructs changes and changes in depression (P>0.05).

1900,32107748,Evaluation of Mortality During Long-Term Treatment with Tafamidis for Transthyretin Amyloidosis with Polyneuropathy: Clinical Trial Results up to 8.5 Years.,"INTRODUCTION
The effects of tafamidis on mortality in Val30Met and non-Val30Met patients with transthyretin amyloidosis with polyneuropathy (ATTR-PN) were evaluated.
METHODS
The analyses were based on cumulative data from the Val30Met patients in the 18-month double-blind registration study and its 12-month open-label extension study, the non-Val30Met patients of the 12-month open-label study, and both patient groups in the ongoing 10-year extension study. Kaplan-Meier analyses of time to death from first treatment dose were performed. For the Val30Met group, two treatment groups were analyzed: those who received tafamidis in both the parent and extension studies (T-T) and those who received placebo in the parent study and switched to tafamidis in the extension studies (P-T).
RESULTS
Kaplan-Meier estimates (95% confidence interval [CI]) were available up to 9 years for the Val30Met group, at which time 85.9% (53.1-96.4) and 91.1% (77.9-96.6) of the patients in the T-T and P-T groups, respectively, were alive. For the non-Val30Met group, estimates were available up to 8 years from the first dose, and the percentage of patients alive was 75.9% (47.7-90.2).
CONCLUSION
Long-term tafamidis treatment may confer survival benefit in patients with ATTR-PN.

1902,32074663,"Efficacy and safety of twice a day, bismuth-containing quadruple therapy using high-dose tetracycline and metronidazole for second-line Helicobacter pylori eradication.","BACKGROUND/AIMS
Conventional second-line, bismuth-containing quadruple therapy is administered four times a day. We aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of twice a day administration compared to the four times a day therapy.
METHODS
Medical records of consecutive patients with positive 13 C-urea breath tests (UBTs) after first-line eradication were reviewed. From December 2018 to June 2019, 100 consecutive 13 C-UBT-positive patients received tetracycline 1 g, metronidazole 750 mg, bismuth subcitrate 300 mg, and pantoprazole 20 mg twice a day for one week. The same number of consecutive 13 C-UBT-positive patients before December 2018 was included as controls. The control group received tetracycline 500 mg and bismuth subcitrate 300 mg four times a day, metronidazole 500 mg three times a day, and pantoprazole 20 mg twice a day for one week. Eradication was confirmed based on a 13 C-UBT performed in the 5th week after taking quadruple therapy.
RESULTS
Ninety-eight patients from the twice a day group and 99 patients from the four times a day group were analyzed. The eradication rate did not differ between the twice a day group (92/98, 93.9%) and the four times a day group (92/99, 92.9%). Adverse drug effects were found in 36 patients from the twice a day group and 50 patients from the four times a day group (P = .051). Abdominal pain, discomfort, and distention were more common with four times a day intake (13.1%) than with twice a day intake (4.1%; P = .024).
CONCLUSIONS
We determined for the first time that twice a day intake of bismuth-containing quadruple therapy using 2 g/d of tetracycline, 1.5 g/d of metronidazole, and 600 mg/d of bismuth subcitrate for one week is effective and safe as the conventional four times a day therapy.

1903,32089822,A phase IIb study to determine the safety and efficacy of candidate INfluenza Vaccine MVA-NP+M1 in combination with licensed Ina CTivated infl Uenza vaccine in adult S aged 65 years and above (INVICTUS): a study protocol.,"Seasonal influenza has a significant annual global impact. Current influenza vaccines work by inducing strain-specific antibodies against the highly polymorphic surface proteins of the influenza virus and need to be redesigned every year, increasing their cost and limiting availability. There is a demand for a more efficacious vaccine, particularly in older adults in which the current vaccines show poor efficacy. The aim is to investigate a novel vaccine, MVA-NP+M1, which targets T cell responses to the nucleoprotein and matrix 1 core proteins of the influenza virus A, which are highly conserved, and therefore may provide long protection against a broad range of influenza strains. INVICTUS is a phase IIb study to determine the safety and efficacy of candidate INfluenza Vaccine MVA-NP+M1 in combination with licensed Ina CTivated infl Uenza vaccine in adult S aged 65 years and above is a randomised, participant-blinded, placebo-controlled, multi-centre phase IIb efficacy study planned for 2030 volunteers aged 65 and over, in primary care. The primary objective is to assess the efficacy of MVA-NP+M1 co-administered with licensed inactivated quadrivalent influenza vaccine in adults ≥65 years. Participants complete daily diaries to record solicited and unsolicited events in the first four weeks post vaccination, and influenza-like illness (ILI) symptoms and severity throughout the influenza season.

1904,32097058,Auditory Perception and Ultrasound Biofeedback Treatment Outcomes for Children With Residual /ɹ/ Distortions: A Randomized Controlled Trial.,"Purpose This study evaluated whether outcomes from treatment, which includes ultrasound visual feedback (UVF), would be more or less effective when combined with auditory perception training for children with residual /ɹ/ errors. Method Children ages 8-16 years with /ɹ/ distortions participated in speech therapy that included real-time UVF of the tongue. Thirty-eight participants were randomized to speech therapy conditions that included a primary focus on articulation using UVF or a condition that included auditory perceptual training plus UVF (incorporating category goodness judgments and self-monitoring). Generalization of /ɹ/ production accuracy to untrained words was assessed before and after 14 hr of therapy. Additionally, the role of auditory perceptual acuity was explored using a synthetic /ɹ/-/w/ continuum. Results There was no difference between the treatment groups in rate of improvement of /ɹ/ accuracy (increase of 34% for each group; p = .95, η p 2 = .00). However, pretreatment auditory acuity was associated with treatment progress in both groups, with finer perceptual acuity corresponding to greater progress ( p = .015, η p 2 = .182). Conclusion Similar gains in speech sound accuracy can be made with treatment that includes UVF with or without auditory perceptual training. Fine-grained perceptual acuity may be a prognostic indicator with treatment.

1906,32066146,Adverse Effects of Low-Dose Methotrexate: A Randomized Trial.,"Background
Low-dose methotrexate (LD-MTX) is the most commonly used drug for systemic rheumatic diseases worldwide and is the recommended first-line agent for rheumatoid arthritis. Despite extensive clinical use for more than 30 years, few data on adverse event (AE) rates derive from randomized, placebo-controlled trials, where both causality and magnitude of risk can be inferred.
Objective
To investigate AE rates, risk, and risk differences comparing LD-MTX versus placebo.
Design
Prespecified secondary analyses of a double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized trial. (ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT01594333).
Setting
North America.
Participants
Adults with known cardiovascular disease and diabetes or metabolic syndrome.
Intervention
Random allocation to LD-MTX (≤20 mg/wk) or placebo. All participants received folic acid, 1 mg/d, 6 days per week.
Measurements
Risks for specific AEs of interest, as well as for all AEs, were compared across treatment groups after blinded adjudication.
Results
After an active run-in period, 6158 patients were enrolled and 4786 randomly assigned to a group; median follow-up was 23 months and median dosage 15 mg/wk. Among the randomly assigned participants, 81.2% were male, median age was 65.7 years, and median body mass index was 31.5 kg/m2. Of 2391 participants assigned to LD-MTX, 2080 (87.0%) had an AE of interest, compared with 1951 of 2395 (81.5%) assigned to placebo (hazard ratio [HR], 1.17 [95% CI, 1.10 to 1.25]). The relative hazards of gastrointestinal (HR, 1.91 [CI, 1.75 to 2.10]), pulmonary (HR, 1.52 [CI, 1.16 to 1.98]), infectious (HR, 1.15 [CI, 1.01 to 1.30]), and hematologic (HR, 1.15 [CI, 1.07 to 1.23]) AEs were elevated for LD-MTX versus placebo. With the exception of increased risk for skin cancer (HR, 2.05 [CI, 1.28 to 3.28]), the treatment groups did not differ in risk for other cancer or mucocutaneous, neuropsychiatric, or musculoskeletal AEs. Renal AEs were reduced in the LD-MTX group (HR, 0.85 [CI, 0.78 to 0.93]).
Limitation
The trial was done in patients without rheumatic disease who tolerated LD-MTX during an active run-in period.
Conclusion
Use of LD-MTX was associated with small to moderate elevations in risks for skin cancer and gastrointestinal, infectious, pulmonary, and hematologic AEs, whereas renal AEs were decreased.

1907,31402005,"Effect of in-line drinking water chlorination at the point of collection on child diarrhoea in urban Bangladesh: a double-blind, cluster-randomised controlled trial.","BACKGROUND
Previous blinded trials of household water treatment interventions in low-income settings have failed to detect a reduction in child diarrhoea. Technological advances have enabled the development of automated in-line chlorine dosers that can disinfect drinking water without electricity, while also allowing users to continue their typical water collection practices. We aimed to evaluate the effect of installing novel passive chlorination devices at shared water points on child diarrhoea prevalence in low-income, densely populated communities in urban Bangladesh.
METHODS
In this double-blind cluster-randomised controlled trial, 100 shared water points (clusters) in two low-income urban communities in Bangladesh were randomly assigned (1:1) to have their drinking water automatically chlorinated at the point of collection by a solid tablet chlorine doser (intervention group) or to be treated by a visually identical doser that supplied vitamin C (active control group). The trial followed an open cohort design; all children younger than 5 years residing in households accessing enrolled water points were measured every 2-3 months during a 14-month follow-up period (children could migrate into or out of the cluster). The primary outcome was caregiver-reported child diarrhoea (≥3 loose or watery stools in a 24-h period [WHO criteria]) with a 1-week recall, including all available childhood observations in the analyses. This trial is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, number NCT02606981, and is completed.
FINDINGS
Between July 5, 2015, and Nov 11, 2015, 100 water points with 920 eligible households were enrolled into the study and randomly assigned to the treatment (50 water points; 517 children at baseline; 2073 child observations included in the primary analysis) or control groups (50; 519; 2154). Children in the treatment group had less WHO-defined diarrhoea than did children in the control group (control 216 [10·0%] of 2154; treatment 156 [7·5%] of 2073; prevalence ratio 0·77, 95% CI 0·65-0·91). Drinking water at the point of collection at treatment taps had detectable free chlorine residual 83% (mean 0·37 ppm) of the time compared with 0% at control taps (0·00 ppm).
INTERPRETATION
Passive chlorination at the point of collection could be an effective and scalable strategy in low-income urban settings for reducing child diarrhoea and for achieving global progress towards Sustainable Development Goal 6.1 to attain universal access to safe and affordable drinking water. Targeting a low chlorine residual (<0·5 ppm) in treated water can increase taste acceptability of chlorinated drinking water while still reducing the risk of diarrhoea.

Evidence from efficacy trials suggests that lipid-based nutrient supplementation (LNS) and home visits can be effective approaches to preventing chronic malnutrition and promoting child development in low-income settings. We tested the integration of these approaches within an existing, large-scale, community-based nutrition programme in Madagascar.

We randomly allocated 125 programme sites to five intervention groups: standard-of-care programme with monthly growth monitoring and nutrition education (T0); T0 plus home visits for intensive nutrition counselling through an added community worker (T1); T1 plus LNS for children aged 6-18 months (T2); T2 plus LNS for pregnant or lactating women (T3); or T1 plus fortnightly home visits to promote and encourage early stimulation (T4). Pregnant women (second or third trimester) and infants younger than 12 months were enrolled in the trial. Primary outcomes were child growth (length-for-age and weight-for-length Z scores) and development at age 18-30 months. Analyses were by intention to treat. The trial was registered with the ISRCTN registry, number ISRCTN14393738.
FINDINGS
The study enrolled 3738 mothers: 1248 pregnant women (250 women in each of the T0, T1, T2, and T4 intervention groups and 248 in the T3 intervention group) and 2490 children aged 0-11 months (497 children in T0, 500 in T1, 494 in T2, 499 in T3, and 500 in T4) at baseline who were assessed at 1-year and 2-year intervals. There were no main effects of any of the intervention groups on any measure of anthropometry or any of the child development outcomes in the full sample. However, compared with children in the T0 intervention group, the youngest children (<6 months at baseline) in the T2 and T3 intervention groups who were fully exposed to the child LNS dose had higher length-for-age Z scores (a significant effect of 0·210 SD [95% CI -0·004 to 0·424] for T2 and a borderline effect of 0·216 SD [0·043 to 0·389] for T3) and lower stunting prevalence (-9·0% [95% CI -16·7 to -1·2] for T2 and -8·2% [-15·6 to -0·7] for T3); supplementing mothers conferred no additional benefit.
INTERPRETATION
LNS for children for a duration of 12 months only benefited growth when it began at an early age, suggesting the need to supplement infants at age 6 months in a very low-income context. The lack of effect of the early stimulation messages and home visits might be due to little take-up of behaviour-change messages and delivery challenges facing community health workers.

1909,32101614,"Evolution of cellular HIV DNA levels in virologically suppressed patients switching to dolutegravir/lamivudine versus maintaining a triple regimen: a prospective, longitudinal, matched, controlled study.","OBJECTIVES
To assess the impact of switching to dolutegravir plus lamivudine maintenance therapy on the HIV cellular reservoir size.
PATIENTS AND METHODS
This was a prospective, longitudinal, matched, controlled study. We enrolled virologically suppressed patients on stable three-drug ART who switched at baseline (BL) to dolutegravir/lamivudine (DT group) or maintained triple therapy (TT group); subjects in the TT group were matched 1:1 with those in the DT group according to age, gender, years since HIV diagnosis, years on ART and anchor drug. Total blood-associated HIV DNA levels were assessed by droplet digital PCR at BL and after 48 weeks (T48). Results were expressed as log10 HIV DNA copies/106 leucocytes.
RESULTS
We enrolled 40 patients in the DT group and 40 in the TT group; the two groups were homogeneous for all main characteristics except nadir CD4 cell count. At BL, HIV DNA levels were comparable between the DT and TT groups: 2.27 (IQR 1.97-2.47) and 2.26 (IQR 2.05-2.61) log10 HIV DNA copies/106 leucocytes, respectively. Change in HIV DNA load from BL to T48 was -0.105 (IQR -0.384 to 0.121, P = 0.041) in the DT group and -0.132 (IQR -0.362 to 0.046, P = 0.005) in the TT group, with a comparable decline observed between the two groups (P = 0.821). A higher HIV DNA decline was associated with higher BL CD4/CD8 ratio.
CONCLUSIONS
Maintenance therapy with dolutegravir/lamivudine had the same impact as the triple regimen on HIV DNA levels after 48 weeks of treatment. These data seem to support the effectiveness of a dolutegravir/lamivudine dual regimen in controlling the magnitude of the cellular reservoir (www.clinicaltrials.gov, number NCT02836782).",2020,Change in HIV DNA load from BL to T48 was -0.105,"['virologically suppressed patients switching to dolutegravir', 'TT group); subjects in the TT group were matched 1:1 with those in the DT group according to age, gender, years since HIV diagnosis, years on ART and anchor drug', 'enrolled virologically suppressed patients on stable three-drug ART who switched at baseline (BL) to']","['lamivudine', 'dolutegravir/lamivudine (DT group) or maintained triple therapy', 'dolutegravir/lamivudine', 'dolutegravir plus lamivudine maintenance therapy']","['Total blood-associated HIV DNA levels', 'HIV DNA levels', 'At BL, HIV DNA levels', 'nadir CD4 cell count']","[{'cui': 'C1260953', 'cui_str': 'Suppressed (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C3253985', 'cui_str': 'dolutegravir'}, {'cui': 'C0439745', 'cui_str': 'Grouped (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0336766', 'cui_str': 'Matches'}, {'cui': 'C0001792', 'cui_str': 'Elderly'}, {'cui': 'C0079399', 'cui_str': 'Gender'}, {'cui': 'C0439234', 'cui_str': 'year (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0019682', 'cui_str': 'HTLV-III'}, {'cui': 'C1704338', 'cui_str': 'diagnosis'}, {'cui': 'C0003826', 'cui_str': 'Arts'}, {'cui': 'C1293132', 'cui_str': 'Anchoring'}, {'cui': 'C0013227', 'cui_str': 'Pharmaceuticals'}, {'cui': 'C0205360', 'cui_str': 'Stable (qualifier value)'}]","[{'cui': 'C0209738', 'cui_str': 'Lamivudine'}, {'cui': 'C3253985', 'cui_str': 'dolutegravir'}, {'cui': 'C0439745', 'cui_str': 'Grouped (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C1314677', 'cui_str': 'Maintained'}, {'cui': 'C0205174', 'cui_str': 'Triple (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0087111', 'cui_str': 'Therapy'}, {'cui': 'C0332287', 'cui_str': 'With (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0677908', 'cui_str': 'Maintenance therapy'}]","[{'cui': 'C0439810', 'cui_str': 'Total (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0005768'}, {'cui': 'C0019682', 'cui_str': 'HTLV-III'}, {'cui': 'C0012854', 'cui_str': 'Deoxyribonucleic Acid'}, {'cui': 'C0456079', 'cui_str': 'Level (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0243009', 'cui_str': 'CD4+ Counts'}]",40.0,0.055901,Change in HIV DNA load from BL to T48 was -0.105,"[{'ForeName': 'Francesca', 'Initials': 'F', 'LastName': 'Lombardi', 'Affiliation': 'Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore, Dipartimento di Sicurezza e Bioetica Sezione Malattie Infettive, Rome, Italy.'}, {'ForeName': 'Simone', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Belmonti', 'Affiliation': 'Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore, Dipartimento di Sicurezza e Bioetica Sezione Malattie Infettive, Rome, Italy.'}, {'ForeName': 'Alberto', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Borghetti', 'Affiliation': 'Fondazione Policlinico Universitario A.

1910,31342893,Effectiveness of school-home intervention for adolescent obesity prevention: parallel school randomised study.,"Many school-based interventions for obesity prevention have been proposed with positive changes in behaviour, but with unsatisfactory results on weight change. The objective was to verify the effectiveness of a combined school- and home-based obesity prevention programme on excessive weight gain in adolescents. Teachers delivered the school-based primary prevention programme to fifth- and sixth-graders (nine schools, forty-eight control classes, forty-nine intervention classes), which included encouraging healthy eating habits and physical activity. A subgroup of overweight or obese adolescents also received a home-based secondary prevention programme delivered by community health professionals. Schools were randomised to intervention or control group. Intent-to-treat analysis used mixed models for repeated continuous measures and considered the cluster effect. The main outcomes were changes in BMI and percentage body fat (%body fat) after one school-year of intervention and follow-up. Against our hypothesis, BMI increased more in the intervention group than in the control group (Δ = 0·3 kg/m2; P = 0·05) with a greater decrease in %body fat among boys (Δ = -0·6 %; P = 0·03) in the control group. The intervention group increased physical activity by 12·5 min per week compared with the control group. Female adolescents in the intervention group ate healthier items more frequently than in the control group. The subgroup that received both the school and home interventions had an increase in %body fat than in the control group (Δ = 0·89 %; P = 0·01).

1912,32109313,The efficacy of ketamine for postoperative pain control in adolescent patients undergoing spinal fusion surgery for idiopathic scoliosis.,"The use of ketamine in conjunction with morphine to reduce postoperative pain has been explored in several different surgery subtypes with conflicting results. Ketamine has shown promise to have both opioid sparing and analgesic effects in the postoperative setting. This study aimed to elucidate ketamine's ability to reduce morphine equivalent consumption and improve patient satisfaction after spinal fusion surgery for the correction of idiopathic scoliosis. This surgery is known to be associated with significant postoperative pain which impedes the ability to improve patient satisfaction, and may complicate the recovery timeline. Currently, the standard therapeutic regimen consists of patient-controlled analgesia morphine and the use of other opioids such as hydromorphone. A prospective, randomized double-blinded, placebo-controlled trial was performed to compare the standard morphine equivalent therapy alone against a standard therapy in conjunction with ketamine. Fifty adolescent patients were enrolled and randomized. Results yielded a significant reduction in postoperative morphine equivalent consumption (p = 0.042), adjusted postoperative pain scores (p < 0.001), and incidence of nausea and vomiting (p = 0.045).

1913,32109005,A well-tolerated new amino acid-based formula for cow's milk allergy.,"OBJECTIVES
Infants with cow's milk allergy (CMA) are in need of a substitute formula up to 2 years. The are three requisites for a substitute of milk in CMA: tolerability, nutritional adequacy, and cost-effectiveness. We evaluate here the tolerability of a new amino acid-based infant formula for the management of CMA.
METHODS
In a phase III/IV prospective, multicentre, open-label, international study, infants and children with immunoglobulin E-mediated CMA were exposed to a diagnostic double-blinded, placebo-controlled food challenge with a new amino acid formula by Blemil Plus Elemental using Neocate as the placebo. If tolerant to it, the study formula was integrated into the patients' usual daily diet for 7 days. Efficacy on day 7 was assessed in terms of symptoms associated with CMA, amount of formula consumed, nutritional and energy intake, and anthropometric data.
RESULTS
Thirty children (17 M and 13 F; median age, 1.58; range, 0.08-12.83 years) completed the open challenge and were able to consume the study formula for at least 7 days. No signs or symptoms of allergic reactions were recorded among children assuming either the test or the control formula, with a lower 95% one-sided confidence interval for the proportion of subjects who did not experience allergic reactions above 90%. Sixteen patient under the age of two continued with the optional extension phase.

1914,31400513,Targeting pregnancy-related weight gain to reduce disparities in obesity: Baseline results from the Healthy Babies trial.,"BACKGROUND
Obesity affects African American women more than any other group in the US. Pregnancy represents a critical life stage of heightened vulnerability for new or persistent obesity, yet few interventions have been effective in reducing excessive gestational weight gain among African American women. We describe the design and baseline findings of Healthy Babies, a two-arm randomized controlled trial testing a mobile health intervention to minimize excessive gestational weight gain versus usual care in this high risk group.
METHODS
African American women in early pregnancy were recruited from two large obstetric practices as well as Philadelphia Women, Infants, and Children's clinics. Participants randomized to the intervention received behavior change goals, daily text messages with feedback, web-based weight gain graphs, health coaching, and a Facebook support group. Data collection included baseline (<22 weeks' gestation), 36-38 weeks' gestation, and 6-month postpartum anthropometric measures and assessments of demographics, contextual factors and behavioral targets. The primary outcome was prevalence of excessive gestational weight gain.
RESULTS
Among participants at baseline (n = 262), the majority met criteria for obesity (63%), were multiparous (62%), single (77%), and were on average 25.6 ± 5.4 years old with a gestational age of 13.9 ± 4.1 weeks. While 82% completed high school, 61% met criteria for inadequate health literacy. Nearly 20% were food insecure. Eighty-eight percent reported a gestational weight gain goal discordant with Institute of Medicine guidelines. There were no significant differences in baseline characteristics between study arms.
CONCLUSIONS
Participants represent a high-risk group for excessive gestational weight gain with demonstrated need for intervention.",2019,"There were no significant differences in baseline characteristics between study arms.

The aim of the study is to analyse whether letrozole (L) and zoledronic acid plus L (ZL) are more effective than tamoxifen (T) as adjuvant endocrine treatment of premenopausal patients with breast cancer with hormone receptor-positive (HR+) tumours.
PATIENTS AND METHODS
In a phase 3 trial, 1065 premenopausal patients with HR + early breast cancer received triptorelin to suppress ovarian function and were randomly assigned (1:1:1) to adjuvant T, L or ZL for 5 years. Cancer recurrence, second breast or non-breast cancer and death were considered events for the intention-to-treat disease-free survival (DFS) analysis.
RESULTS
With a 64-month median follow-up and 134 reported events, the disease-free rate at 5 years was 85.4%, 93.2% and 93.3% with T, L and ZL, respectively (overall P = 0.008). The hazard ratio for a DFS event was 0.52 (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.34 to 0.80; P = 0.003) with ZL vs T, 0.72 (95% CI, 0.48 to 1.07; P = 0.06) with L vs T and 0.70 (95% CI, 0.44 to 1.12; P = 0.22) with ZL vs L. With 36 deaths, there was no significant difference in overall survival (P = 0.14). Treatment was stopped for toxicity or refusal in 7.3%, 7.3% and 16.6% patients, and in the safety population, grade 3-4 side-effects were reported in 4.2%, 6.9% and 9.1% patients treated with T, L or ZL, respectively.

The utilization of herbal compounds and complementary therapy for treatment of disease and addiction has been widely expanding. Considering the significant effect of Hab-o Shefa in detoxification phase, this clinical trial has explored the influence of this compound on maintenance treatment of opioid-dependent patients. This product is made of four herbs, including Datura stramonium L., Rheum palmatum L., Zingiber officinale Roscoe, and Acacia senegal L. Design: The authors conducted a two-group parallel randomized double-blind clinical trial on 81 opioid-dependent patients within 12 weeks. After medically assisted detoxification, participants were assigned randomly to Hab-o Shefa ( n = 41) and placebo ( n = 40). Outcome measures included craving assessed by craving beliefs questionnaire, self-reported opioid use, and lapse (any opioid-positive urine test) according to urinalysis and addiction severity index-lite questionnaire, retention in treatment, and depression and anxiety scores on the Hamilton's anxiety and depression scales. Results: Forty-one participants completed the study for 12 weeks, 21 subjects in the drug group and 20 subjects in the placebo group. The rates of opioid-positive urine tests and self-reported opioid use were significantly lower in Hab-o Shefa group ( f = 8.41, p = 0.001). Hab-o Shefa also indicated a significant superiority over placebo in the effect of treatment by time interaction for craving ( f = 5.91, p = 0.001), depression ( f = 3.40, p = 0.01), and anxiety ( f = 2.58, p = 0.035). The retention time was 66.6 days for drug group and 59.6 days for placebo one. Although the causes for dropping out in two groups were different, there was no significant difference ( p = 0.623). The side effects of the two groups were not significantly different.

1917,31021357,APOE Genotype Influences Postprandial Blood Pressure after High Fat Feeding in Older Adults.,"OBJECTIVE
Postprandial hypotension (PPH) is a common phenomenon among older adults. The degree to which individuals experience PPH is related to cerebrovascular risk factors and the presence of neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's disease (AD). Carrier status of the E4 allele of the apolipoprotein E (APOE) gene is a risk factor for AD and influences a variety of responses to metabolic and dietary interventions. However, it is unknown whether APOE genotype influences the risk of PPH and whether type of meal can mediate that response.
DESIGN
Acute meal study with a crossover design.
PARTICIPANTS
32 cognitively healthy older adults with (n=18) and without (n=14) E4+ carrier status.
INTERVENTION
As a part of an ongoing meal study we examined the postprandial blood pressure response after ingestion of a high carbohydrate (HCM) and high fat meal (HFM).
MEASUREMENTS
Blood pressure measurements were taken at 7 time points and change scores, area under the curve (AUC) scores were calculated. Data were analyzed by repeated measures ANOVA as well as Pearson correlation.
RESULTS
Both meals produced a sustained drop in systolic (SBP) and diastolic (DBP) blood pressure, with 37.5% of participants meeting criteria for PPH. Participants carrying the E4+ risk gene experienced a larger decrease in SBP than E4- participants, and this was significantly different after the HFM (E4+ AUC = -30.8 ± 7.6, E4- AUC = -0.2 ± 8.7, p=0.015). Increasing age was associated with a larger drop in postprandial blood pressure but only for the E4+ group after the HFM (p=0.002).
CONCLUSIONS
These data suggest that E4+ individuals experience a greater postprandial blood pressure response particularly following high fat feeding, and this effect becomes more pronounced with age. The prevalence of PPH may play a role in the development of AD and may be mediated by diet.",2019,"Increasing age was associated with a larger drop in postprandial blood pressure but only for the E4+ group after the HFM (p=0.002).

1918,31989240,Acute and daily effects of repeated voluntary hyperpnea on pulmonary function in healthy adults.,"PURPOSE
Hyperpnea training has been used as a method for both improving exercise performance in healthy persons and improving ventilatory capacity in patients with pulmonary disease. However, voluntary hyperpnea causes acute declines in pulmonary function, but the effects of repeated days of hyperpnea on airway function are not known. The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of repeated normocapnic hyperpnea on daily and post-hyperpnea pulmonary function in healthy adults.
METHODS
Ten healthy adults (21 years; 170 cm; 66 kg) completed ten hyperpnea training sessions within 17-days (TR). Training sessions consisted of 20-minutes of normocapnic hyperpnea with gradually increased minute ventilation over the 10 days. Spirometry was assessed at baseline and serially following hyperpnea during each experimental day. A control group (24 years; 171 cm; 66 kg) completed 10 days of spirometry with no hyperpnea training (CON).
RESULTS
In both CON and TR subjects, baseline pulmonary function was unchanged during the 10 days. In TR subjects, pulmonary function was decreased at 5 mins after hyperpnea but thereafter increased to pre-hyperpnea values by 30 mins. Furthermore, these changes in pulmonary function were consistent during the 10 training days. In TR subjects, maximal voluntary ventilation decreased by 10.4 ± 8.9% (168-150 L min -1 ) over the 10 days (P < 0.05), whereas it was unchanged in CON subjects.
CONCLUSIONS
These findings demonstrate that voluntary hyperpnea acutely decreases airway function in healthy subjects. However, there does not appear to be a cumulative effect of repeated hyperpnea, as daily pulmonary function was unchanged.",2020,"In TR subjects, maximal voluntary ventilation decreased by 10.4 ± 8.9% (168-150 L min -1 ) over the 10 days (P < 0.05), whereas it was unchanged in CON subjects.

1919,32091102,Pharmacovirological analyses of blood and male genital compartment in patients receiving dolutegravir + lamivudine dual therapy as a switch strategy (ANRS 167 LAMIDOL trial).,"OBJECTIVES
To describe plasma residual HIV viraemia, cellular HIV reservoir size, blood plasma drug concentrations and their male genital tract penetration during the maintenance dual therapy dolutegravir + lamivudine.
PATIENTS AND METHODS
ANRS167 LAMIDOL enrolled 104 virologically suppressed patients to switch to dolutegravir + lamivudine. In this pharmacovirological substudy, ultrasensitive plasma viral load (USpVL) and plasma drug concentrations were measured at Day 0 (D0), Week 24 (W24) and W48 of dolutegravir + lamivudine, and HIV-DNA was measured at W-8 and W48. Semen samples were collected at D0 and W24 from 18 participants. Total and unbound blood and seminal plasma drug concentrations were measured using UPLC-MS/MS.
RESULTS
Median HIV-DNA was 2.5 log10 copies/106 PBMC (IQR = 2.2-3.0, n = 100) at W-8 and 2.4 log10 copies/106 PBMC (IQR = 2.1-2.9, n = 100) at W48 (P = 0.17). The proportion of patients with undetected USpVL was 38% (n = 98), 43% (n = 98) and 49% (n = 97) at D0, W24 and W48, respectively (P = 0.08). Total and unbound plasma dolutegravir concentrations were stable between timepoints (P = 0.13) and all total plasma dolutegravir concentrations except one were adequate. Median free fraction of dolutegravir in plasma was 0.21%. Median blood plasma and seminal plasma concentrations of total dolutegravir at 24 h were 1812 ng/mL and 206 ng/mL, respectively. Median seminal plasma/blood plasma total concentration ratios were 11.6% and 2478% for dolutegravir and lamivudine, respectively.

1920,30924265,"Exercise training in patients with a left ventricular assist device (Ex-VAD): rationale and design of a multicentre, prospective, assessor-blinded, randomized, controlled trial.","AIMS
Left ventricular assist device (LVAD) therapy is a promising option for patients with advanced heart failure (HF), refractory to guideline-mandated medical treatment either as a bridge to heart transplantation or as lifelong therapy. Functional capacity improves after LVAD implantation but remains reduced in patients with long-term LVAD therapy. Exercise training (ET) improves functional capacity and quality of life (QoL) in HF and may provide incremental benefits in patients supported with LVAD therapy.
METHODS
The primary objective of Ex-VAD is to investigate whether a 12-week supervised ET can improve peak oxygen uptake (peakVO 2 ) measured by cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) on an ergometer. The study is powered to demonstrate a group difference of 3 mL/min/kg in peakVO 2 at week 12, with a power of 0.9 and a standard deviation of 5 mL/min/kg. After baseline assessments to determine whether ET is safe, 66 patients at six trial sites with advanced HF and LVAD therapy will be randomized 2:1 to supervised ET or to the control arm of usual care alone. Patients randomized to ET will perform supervised aerobic endurance and resistance ET (three times/week) for 12 weeks. At baseline and during follow-up, anthropometry, CPET, echocardiography (at rest and exercise), and QoL evaluation will be performed. Blood samples will be collected to examine cardiac-specific relevant biomarkers. Overall physical activity, training sessions, and adherence will be monitored and documented throughout the study using accelerometers and patient diaries.
CONCLUSIONS
The Ex-VAD trial will assess the effects of a supervised ET programme on peakVO 2 and QoL in patients with LVAD. As LVAD therapy moves from crisis support to ambulatory functional enhancement, this trial will provide a rationale to improve functional capacity and, in perspective, cardiovascular outcomes in LVAD-supported patients with advanced HF.",2019,"Exercise training (ET) improves functional capacity and quality of life (QoL) in HF and may provide incremental benefits in patients supported with LVAD therapy.

1921,31326345,"Faecal microbiota transplantation for diarrhoea-predominant irritable bowel syndrome: a double-blind, randomised, placebo-controlled trial.","BACKGROUND
Faecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) has shown promise in alleviating the symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS); however, controlled data on this technique are scarce. The aim of this clinical trial was to assess the efficacy of FMT in alleviating diarrhoea-predominant IBS (IBS-D).
METHODS
We did a double-blind, randomised, placebo-controlled crossover trial in patients aged 18-65 years with moderate-to-severe IBS-D defined by an IBS-Symptom Severity Score (IBS-SSS) of more than 175, recruited from three US centres. Patients were randomly assigned (1:1) in blocks of four with a computer-generated randomisation sequence to receive FMT capsules followed by identical-appearing placebo capsules, or placebo capsules followed by FMT capsules. All participants and study team members were masked to randomisation. An independent staff member assigned the treatments according to consecutive numbers. Patients received either 75 FMT capsules (each capsule contained approximately 0·38 g of minimally processed donor stool) or 75 placebo capsules over 3 days (25 capsules per day). All patients crossed over to the alternate treatment at 12 weeks. The primary outcome was difference in IBS-SSS between the groups at 12 weeks. Intention-to-treat analyses were done and all patients who received study drug were included in an adverse events analysis. The trial was terminated during recruitment because results from an interim analysis revealed futility. The study is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, number NCT02328547.
FINDINGS
From May 28, 2015, to April 21, 2017, 48 patients were randomly assigned to receive FMT first (n=25) or placebo first (n=23). Three participants were lost to follow-up in the FMT group. IBS-SSS did not differ between FMT recipients (mean 221 [SD 105]) and placebo recipients (236 [95]) at 12 weeks (p=0·65), after adjustment for baseline scores. The most common drug-related adverse events included abdominal pain (five [10%] of the 48 participants while receiving FMT capsules vs four [8%] while receiving placebo), nausea (four [8%] vs two [4%]), and exacerbation of diarrhoea (three [6%] vs eight [17%]). One serious adverse event that was unrelated to study drug (acute cholecystitis) was reported in a patient while receiving placebo capsules.
INTERPRETATION
FMT was safe, but did not induce symptom relief at 12 weeks compared with placebo. Additional studies are needed to determine the efficacy of FMT for IBS-D.

1922,32087841,Motivational interviewing and culture for urban Native American youth (MICUNAY): A randomized controlled trial.,"To date, few programs that integrate traditional practices with evidence-based practices have been developed, implemented, and evaluated with urban American Indians/Alaska Natives (AI/ANs) using a strong research design. The current study recruited urban AI/AN teens across northern, central, and southern California during 2014-2017 to participate in a randomized controlled trial testing two cultural interventions that addressed alcohol and other drug (AOD) use. Adolescents were 14-18 years old (inclusive), and either verbally self-identified as AI/AN or were identified as AI/AN by a parent or community member. We tested the added benefit of MICUNAY (Motivational Interviewing and Culture for Urban Native American Youth) to a CWG (Community Wellness Gathering). MICUNAY was a group intervention with three workshops that integrated traditional practices with motivational interviewing. CWGs were cultural events held monthly in each city. AI/AN urban adolescents (N = 185) completed a baseline survey, were randomized to MICUNAY + CWG or CWG only, and then completed a three- and six-month follow-up. We compared outcomes on AOD use, spirituality, and cultural identification. Overall, AOD use remained stable over the course of the study, and we did not find significant differences between these two groups over time. It may be that connecting urban AI/AN adolescents to culturally centered activities and resources is protective, which has been shown in other work with this population. Given that little work has been conducted in this area, longer term studies of AOD interventions with urban AI/AN youth throughout the U.S. are suggested to test the potential benefits of culturally centered interventions.",2020,"Overall, AOD use remained stable over the course of the study, and we did not find significant differences between these two groups over time.","['urban Native American youth (MICUNAY', 'Urban Native American Youth', 'urban AI/AN teens across northern, central, and southern California during 2014-2017 to participate', 'Adolescents were 14-18\xa0years old (inclusive), and either verbally self-identified as AI/AN or were identified as AI/AN by a parent or community member', 'AN urban adolescents (N\xa0=\xa0185) completed a baseline survey']","['Motivational interviewing and culture', 'integrated traditional practices with motivational interviewing', ' CWG or CWG', 'cultural interventions that addressed alcohol and other drug (AOD) use']","['AOD use, spirituality, and cultural identification']","[{'cui': 'C0442529', 'cui_str': 'Urban environment (environment)'}, {'cui': 'C0282204', 'cui_str': 'Native Americans'}, {'cui': 'C0087178', 'cui_str': 'Youth'}, {'cui': 'C1521910', 'cui_str': 'Teens'}, {'cui': 'C0205099', 'cui_str': 'Central (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0006754', 'cui_str': 'California'}, {'cui': 'C0205653', 'cui_str': 'Adolescent'}, {'cui': 'C0439234', 'cui_str': 'year (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0677546', 'cui_str': 'Old episode (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0036588', 'cui_str': 'Self'}, {'cui': 'C0205396', 'cui_str': 'Identified (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0085092', 'cui_str': 'Parenting'}, {'cui': 'C0009462', 'cui_str': 'Community'}, {'cui': 'C4517617', 'cui_str': '185 (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0205197', 'cui_str': 'Complete (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0282121', 'cui_str': 'Baseline Survey'}]","[{'cui': 'C0683474', 'cui_str': 'Motivational Interviewing'}, {'cui': 'C0220814', 'cui_str': 'culture'}, {'cui': 'C0443324', 'cui_str': 'Traditional (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0376649', 'cui_str': 'Address'}, {'cui': 'C0001975', 'cui_str': 'Alcohols'}, {'cui': 'C0449889', 'cui_str': 'Drug used (attribute)'}]","[{'cui': 'C1947944', 'cui_str': 'Use'}, {'cui': 'C0237104', 'cui_str': 'Spiritualities'}, {'cui': 'C0020792', 'cui_str': 'Identification'}]",,0.0320976,"Overall, AOD use remained stable over the course of the study, and we did not find significant differences between these two groups over time.","[{'ForeName': 'Elizabeth J', 'Initials': 'EJ', 'LastName': ""D'Amico"", 'Affiliation': 'RAND Corporation, 1776 Main St., Santa Monica, CA 90401, United States of America.

To define the impact of typical servings of commercially available tomato products on resultant plasma and prostate lycopene concentrations, men scheduled to undergo prostatectomy (n 33) were randomised either to a lycopene-restricted control group ( < 5 mg lycopene/d) or to a tomato soup (2-2¾ cups prepared/d), tomato sauce (142-198 g/d or 5-7 ounces/d) or vegetable juice (325-488 ml/d or 11-16·5 fluid ounces/d) intervention providing 25-35 mg lycopene/d. Plasma and prostate carotenoid concentrations were measured by HPLC. Tomato soup, sauce and juice consumption significantly increased plasma lycopene concentration from 0·68 (sem 0·1) to 1·13 (sem 0·09) μmol/l (66 %), 0·48 (sem 0·09) to 0·82 (sem 0·12) μmol/l (71 %) and 0·49 (sem 0·12) to 0·78 (sem 0·1) μmol/l (59 %), respectively, while the controls consuming the lycopene-restricted diet showed a decline in plasma lycopene concentration from 0·55 (sem 0·60) to 0·42 (sem 0·07) μmol/l ( - 24 %). The end-of-study prostate lycopene concentration was 0·16 (sem 0·02) nmol/g in the controls, but was 3·5-, 3·6- and 2·2-fold higher in tomato soup (P= 0·001), sauce (P= 0·001) and juice (P= 0·165) consumers, respectively. Prostate lycopene concentration was moderately correlated with post-intervention plasma lycopene concentrations (r 0·60, P =0·001), indicating that additional factors have an impact on tissue concentrations.

1924,31201692,"The Use of Intraperitoneal Bupivacaine in Laparoscopic Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass: a Double-blind, Randomized Controlled Trial.","BACKGROUND
Several studies have shown a reduction in postoperative pain and length of hospital stay when using intraperitoneal local anesthetics during laparoscopic surgery. In morbidly obese patients, respiratory depression due to opioid use is a serious side effect. Any different type of analgesia is therefore clinically relevant.
OBJECTIVE
To assess the effect of intraperitoneal bupivacaine on postoperative pain after laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (LRYGB).
METHODS
Between March and November 2017, 130 patients were included and randomly assigned to receive 20 ml or 0 ml of 2.5% bupivacaine hydrochloride sprayed onto the diaphragm. Pain scores for abdominal and shoulder pain were conducted using the visual analogue scale (VAS) for pain score at 0, 1, 6, and 24 h postoperatively. The length of hospital stay and use of analgesics was recorded in digital patient records. The primary outcome is the pain scores and the secondary outcomes are postoperative use of opioids or antiemetics and length of hospital stay.
RESULTS
The study and control group contained respectively 66 and 61 patients. Patient characteristics were equal in both groups (p < 0.05), except for age. No significant reduction of postoperative pain or opioid use was seen with the use of intraperitoneal bupivacaine. There was also no significant reduction in the use of antiemetics and length of hospital stay.
CONCLUSION
The use of intraperitoneal bupivacaine in LRYGB does not show a statistically significant reduction in postoperative pain or postoperative opioid use. Therefore, using intraperitoneal bupivacaine has no clinical relevance and should no longer be used in LRYGB.",2019,The use of intraperitoneal bupivacaine in LRYGB does not show a statistically significant reduction in postoperative pain or postoperative opioid use.,"['Between March and November 2017, 130 patients', 'morbidly obese patients', 'Laparoscopic Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass', 'after laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (LRYGB']","['Intraperitoneal Bupivacaine', '20\xa0ml or 0\xa0ml of 2.5% bupivacaine hydrochloride sprayed onto the diaphragm', 'intraperitoneal bupivacaine']","['postoperative pain', 'Pain scores for abdominal and shoulder pain', 'pain scores', 'length of hospital stay and use of analgesics', 'postoperative pain and length of hospital stay', 'postoperative use of opioids or antiemetics and length of hospital stay', 'antiemetics and length of hospital stay', 'postoperative pain or postoperative opioid use', 'visual analogue scale (VAS) for pain score']","[{'cui': 'C4319552', 'cui_str': '130 (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C0028754', 'cui_str': 'Obesity'}, {'cui': 'C0585179', 'cui_str': 'Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass'}]","[{'cui': 'C0442120', 'cui_str': 'Intraperitoneal (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0006400', 'cui_str': 'Bupivacaine'}, {'cui': 'C3844011', 'cui_str': '2.5'}, {'cui': 'C0887621', 'cui_str': 'Bupivacaine Hydrochloride'}, {'cui': 'C4521772', 'cui_str': 'Spray'}, {'cui': 'C0011980', 'cui_str': 'Respiratory Diaphragm'}]","[{'cui': 'C0030201', 'cui_str': 'Pain, Postoperative'}, {'cui': 'C0582148', 'cui_str': 'Pain score (observable entity)'}, {'cui': 'C0000726', 'cui_str': 'Abdomen'}, {'cui': 'C0037011', 'cui_str': 'Shoulder Pain'}, {'cui': 'C1444754', 'cui_str': 'Length property'}, {'cui': 'C3489408', 'cui_str': 'Hospital Stay'}, {'cui': 'C1524063', 'cui_str': 'Use of (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0002771', 'cui_str': 'Analgesic Drugs'}, {'cui': 'C0032790', 'cui_str': 'Postoperative Period'}, {'cui': 'C0242402', 'cui_str': 'Opioids'}, {'cui': 'C0003297', 'cui_str': 'Antiemetic Drugs'}, {'cui': 'C1947944', 'cui_str': 'Use'}, {'cui': 'C3536884', 'cui_str': 'Visual Analog Scale'}]",130.0,0.113993,The use of intraperitoneal bupivacaine in LRYGB does not show a statistically significant reduction in postoperative pain or postoperative opioid use.,"[{'ForeName': 'Iris E', 'Initials': 'IE', 'LastName': 'Schipper', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Surgery, Flevoziekenhuis, Hospitaalweg 1, 1315 RA, Almere, The Netherlands. iris.schipper@hotmail.com.'}, {'ForeName': 'Manon', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Schouten', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Surgery, Flevoziekenhuis, Hospitaalweg 1, 1315 RA, Almere, The Netherlands.'}, {'ForeName': 'Tugba', 'Initials': 'T', 'LastName': 'Yalcin', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Surgery, Flevoziekenhuis, Hospitaalweg 1, 1315 RA, Almere, The Netherlands.'}, {'ForeName': 'Gijs D', 'Initials': 'GD', 'LastName': 'Algie', 'Affiliation': 'Bravis Hospital, Roosendaal, The Netherlands.'}, {'ForeName': 'Stefan L', 'Initials': 'SL', 'LastName': 'Damen', 'Affiliation': 'Medical Center Leeuwarden, Leeuwarden, The Netherlands.'}, {'ForeName': 'Robert M', 'Initials': 'RM', 'LastName': 'Smeenk', 'Affiliation': 'Albert Schweitzer Hospital, Dordrecht, The Netherlands.'}, {'ForeName': 'Ruben', 'Initials': 'R', 'LastName': 'Schouten', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Surgery, Flevoziekenhuis, Hospitaalweg 1, 1315 RA, Almere, The Netherlands.'}]",Obesity surgery,['10.1007/s11695-019-03982-6']

Immune globulin subcutaneous (human) 20% liquid (Hizentra ® ; referred to as IgPro20 hereafter) has recently been approved in a number of countries, including the USA and those of the EU, as maintenance therapy in patients with CIDP. In the pivotal phase III PATH trial in adults with CIDP who were first stabilized on IVIg therapy, maintenance therapy with IgPro20 for 24 weeks significantly reduced CIDP relapse or study withdrawal rates versus placebo. Efficacy was sustained during ≤ 48 weeks of additional treatment with IgPro20 in the open-label PATH extension study. IgPro20 was generally well tolerated, with low rates of systemic adverse events (AEs); the most common AEs were local reactions (e.g. infusion-site erythema, infusion-site swelling). In PATH, more than one-half of IgPro20 recipients preferred this therapy to their previous IVIg therapy. IgPro20 offers a convenient alternative to IVIg with a better systemic AEs profile and thus extends the options for maintenance therapy in CIDP.",2019,"IgPro20 was generally well tolerated, with low rates of systemic adverse events (AEs); the most common AEs were local reactions (e.g. infusion-site erythema, infusion-site swelling).","['patients with chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP', 'adults with CIDP', 'patients with CIDP']","['Intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIg', 'placebo', 'Immune globulin subcutaneous (human) 20% liquid (Hizentra ® ', 'Immune Globulin Subcutaneous (Human) 20% (Hizentra ® ']","['Efficacy', 'CIDP relapse or study withdrawal rates']","[{'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C0393819', 'cui_str': 'Inflammatory Polyradiculopathy, Chronic'}, {'cui': 'C0001675', 'cui_str': 'Adult'}]","[{'cui': 'C0085297', 'cui_str': 'Immunoglobulins, Intravenous'}, {'cui': 'C1696465', 'cui_str': 'placebo'}, {'cui': 'C1703576', 'cui_str': 'Immune Globulin Subcutaneous (Human)'}, {'cui': 'C1304698', 'cui_str': 'Liquid - descriptor'}, {'cui': 'C2746518', 'cui_str': 'Hizentra'}]","[{'cui': 'C0393819', 'cui_str': 'Inflammatory Polyradiculopathy, Chronic'}, {'cui': 'C0035020', 'cui_str': 'Relapse'}, {'cui': 'C0557651', 'cui_str': 'Study (environment)'}]",,0.110509,"IgPro20 was generally well tolerated, with low rates of systemic adverse events (AEs); the most common AEs were local reactions (e.g. infusion-site erythema, infusion-site swelling).","[{'ForeName': 'Yvette N', 'Initials': 'YN', 'LastName': 'Lamb', 'Affiliation': 'Springer, Private Bag 65901, Mairangi Bay, Auckland, 0754, New Zealand. demail@springer.com.'}, {'ForeName': 'Yahiya Y', 'Initials': 'YY', 'LastName': 'Syed', 'Affiliation': 'Springer, Private Bag 65901, Mairangi Bay, Auckland, 0754, New Zealand.'}, {'ForeName': 'Sohita', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Dhillon', 'Affiliation': 'Springer, Private Bag 65901, Mairangi Bay, Auckland, 0754, New Zealand.'}]",CNS drugs,['10.1007/s40263-019-00655-x']
1926,32072838,Parental quality of life and self-efficacy in pediatric asthma.,"Objective: Self-efficacy is the personal belief that a behavior can produce a desired result; and in asthma, self-efficacy in asthma care has been related to improvements in asthma outcomes and children's quality of life. To appreciate the full burden of asthma on families, the relationship between parental self-efficacy and quality of life also needs further study. We aim to characterize this relationship. Methods: Secondary analysis of measurements of parents of children with persistent asthma ( n = 252; ages 4-17 years) from a large urban area were identified from a randomized trial; the association between baseline assessments of parental quality of life, measured by the Pediatric Asthma Caregiver's Quality of Life Questionnaire (PACQLQ), and parental self-efficacy, measured through the Parental Asthma Management Self-Efficacy Scale (PAMSES), were examined through multivariable linear regression. Results: Parental self-efficacy in asthma was positively associated with quality of life among parents of racially and ethnically diverse children ( p = 0.01). Confidence in using medications correctly ( p = 0.03), having inhalers during a child's serious breathing problem ( p = 0.02), and knowing which medications to use during a child's serious breathing problem ( p = 0.04) were associated with a clinically meaningful difference in parental quality of life. Other significant factors associated with parental quality of life included Hispanic/Latino ethnicity ( p < 0.01) of the child and Asthma Control Test scores ( p < 0.01). Conclusion: The findings suggest that improving parental confidence on when and how to use their child's asthma medications, particularly during an asthma attack, might be clinically meaningful in enhancing parent's quality of life.",2020,Parental self-efficacy in asthma was positively associated with quality of life among parents of racially and ethnically diverse children ( p = 0.01).,"['pediatric asthma', 'parents of children with persistent asthma ( n \u2009=\u2009252; ages 4-17\u2009years) from a large urban area']",[],"['parental quality of life included Hispanic/Latino ethnicity', 'parental quality of life', 'quality of life', ""parental quality of life, measured by the Pediatric Asthma Caregiver's Quality of Life Questionnaire (PACQLQ), and parental self-efficacy, measured through the Parental Asthma Management Self-Efficacy Scale (PAMSES"", 'Parental quality of life and self-efficacy']","[{'cui': 'C0030755', 'cui_str': 'Pediatrics'}, {'cui': 'C0004096', 'cui_str': 'Asthma, Bronchial'}, {'cui': 'C0030551', 'cui_str': 'Parent of (observable entity)'}, {'cui': 'C0008059', 'cui_str': 'Child'}, {'cui': 'C3266628', 'cui_str': 'Persistent asthma'}, {'cui': 'C0001792', 'cui_str': 'Elderly'}, {'cui': 'C0439234', 'cui_str': 'year (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C1704243', 'cui_str': 'Greater (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0442529', 'cui_str': 'Urban environment (environment)'}, {'cui': 'C0205146', 'cui_str': 'Area (qualifier value)'}]",[],"[{'cui': 'C0034380'}, {'cui': 'C0332257', 'cui_str': 'Including (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0086409', 'cui_str': 'Hispanics'}, {'cui': 'C0086528', 'cui_str': 'Latinos'}, {'cui': 'C0243103', 'cui_str': 'ethnicity'}, {'cui': 'C1879489', 'cui_str': 'Measures (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0030755', 'cui_str': 'Pediatrics'}, {'cui': 'C0004096', 'cui_str': 'Asthma, Bronchial'}, {'cui': 'C0085537', 'cui_str': 'Care Givers'}, {'cui': 'C0034394', 'cui_str': 'Questionnaires'}, {'cui': 'C0600564', 'cui_str': 'Self Efficacy'}, {'cui': 'C1318955', 'cui_str': 'Asthma management'}, {'cui': 'C0222045'}]",,0.0278782,Parental self-efficacy in asthma was positively associated with quality of life among parents of racially and ethnically diverse children ( p = 0.01).,"[{'ForeName': 'Kristin', 'Initials': 'K', 'LastName': 'Kan', 'Affiliation': ""Division of Academic General Pediatrics and Mary Ann & J.

1927,31377477,Survival outcomes of the NeoALTTO study (BIG 1-06): updated results of a randomised multicenter phase III neoadjuvant clinical trial in patients with HER2-positive primary breast cancer.,"BACKGROUND
Lapatinib (L) plus trastuzumab (T) with weekly paclitaxel significantly increased the pathologic complete response (pCR) rate compared with the anti-human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) agent alone plus paclitaxel. The event-free survival (EFS) and overall survival (OS) by the treatment arms L + T vs. T and L vs. T and the relationship between pCR and EFS/OS both in the whole study population and according to hormone receptor-negative and hormone receptor-positive cohorts after a median follow-up of 6.7 years were assessed.
PATIENTS AND METHODS
Four hundred fifty-five patients with HER2-positive early breast cancer randomly received L 1500 mg/day (n = 154), T (common dose, n = 149) or L 1000 mg/day plus T (n = 152) for 6 weeks, followed by the assigned anti-HER2 treatment combined with paclitaxel weekly × 12. After surgery, patients received 3 cycles of fluorouracil, epirubicin and cyclophosphamide. The primary end-point was pCR (ypT0/is; for current analysis, it is ypT0/is ypN0), and the secondary end-points were EFS and OS.
RESULTS
Six-year EFS rates were 67%, 67% and 74% with L, T and L + T, respectively (L vs T: hazard ratio [HR], 0.98 [95% confidence interval {CI}, 0.64-1.51; P = .93]; L + T vs T: HR, 0.81 [95% CI, 0.52-1.26; P = .35]). Six-Year OS rates were 82%, 79% and 85% for L, T and L + T, respectively (L vs T: HR, 0.85 [95% CI, 0.49-1.46; P = .56]; L + T vs T: HR, 0.72 [95% CI, 0.41-1.27; P = .26]). In landmark analyses, patients with a pCR had a significantly higher 6-year EFS (77% and 65%) and OS (89% and 77%) compared with those without a pCR for both overall and the hormone receptor-negative cohort.

1928,32079428,"Shimian granules improve sleep, mood and performance of shift nurses in association changes in melatonin and cytokine biomarkers: a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled pilot study.","Shift nurses are prone to sleep problems and impaired nighttime alertness, with risk for reduced health status plus decreased performance, handling errors, and workplace accidents. Attention to and improvements in the situation of shift nurses are urgent. Shimian granules (SMG), an improved formula of Jieyuanshen with liver qingre and yangxin tranquilizing effects, for more than a decade has been used in China as a herbal treatment of sleep disorders in clinical practice. However, clinical data on SMG have rarely been reported. This double-blinded, randomized, placebo-controlled, pilot clinical trial (ChiCTR-IOR-17013031) aimed to explore whether Shimian granules (SMG) improves sleep and affective state in shift nurses and in association with changes in concentrations of salivary cytokines. Fifty-three rotating-shift female nurses with a Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) score ≥8 were orally treated with 10.0 g SMG or placebo 2 times daily (30 min after breakfast and 30 min before bed) for 1 month. The Insomnia Severity Index (ISI), a psychomotor vigilance task, Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS-A/HADS-D), and levels of four salivary cytokines were evaluated by single time-of-day sampling at baseline and after 1 month of treatment. Significantly lower ISI, HADS, HADS-A, and HADS-D scores, but higher 1/mean reaction time (1/mRT) score, were found in shift nurses treated with SMG than in those who received placebo, and these effects were associated with changes in salivary melatonin, TNF, IL-1β, and IL-6 levels. These latter findings suggest melatonin, TNF, and IL-6 levels may be suitable biomarkers of ISI score in shift nurses, whereas TNF level may be a suitable biomarker of 1/mRT score and IL-6 level a suitable biomarker of HADS score in response to SMG treatment. The results of this pilot study suggest SMG can effectively improve sleep, alertness, plus anxiety and depression symptoms in shift nurses in association with changes in salivary cytokine levels. The results of this study provide an experimental basis for the evaluation of traditional Chinese medicines for the treatment of insomnia and underlying mechanisms of their actions that require detailed future exploration.",2020,"The Insomnia Severity Index (ISI), a psychomotor vigilance task, Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS-A/HADS-D), and levels of four salivary cytokines were evaluated by single time-of-day sampling at baseline and after 1 month of treatment.",['Fifty-three rotating-shift female nurses with a Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) score ≥8'],"['placebo', 'SMG or placebo', 'SMG', 'Shimian granules (SMG']","['performance, handling errors, and workplace accidents', 'sleep, mood and performance of shift nurses', 'sleep and affective state', 'salivary melatonin, TNF, IL-1β, and IL-6 levels', 'ISI, HADS, HADS-A, and HADS-D scores', 'sleep, alertness, plus anxiety and depression symptoms', 'reaction time (1/mRT) score', 'Insomnia Severity Index (ISI), a psychomotor vigilance task, Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS-A/HADS-D), and levels of four salivary cytokines']","[{'cui': 'C0231458', 'cui_str': 'Rotated (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0333051', 'cui_str': 'Shift (morphologic abnormality)'}, {'cui': 'C0086287', 'cui_str': 'Females'}, {'cui': 'C0028661', 'cui_str': 'Personnel, Nursing'}, {'cui': 'C4545801', 'cui_str': 'PSQI (Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index) score'}]","[{'cui': 'C1696465', 'cui_str': 'placebo'}, {'cui': 'C3853573', 'cui_str': 'Granules'}]","[{'cui': 'C0018578', 'cui_str': 'Handling'}, {'cui': 'C0162579', 'cui_str': 'Job Site'}, {'cui': 'C1961149', 'cui_str': 'Accidental physical contact (event)'}, {'cui': 'C0424522', 'cui_str': 'Asleep (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C0026516', 'cui_str': 'Mood'}, {'cui': 'C0333051', 'cui_str': 'Shift (morphologic abnormality)'}, {'cui': 'C0028661', 'cui_str': 'Personnel, Nursing'}, {'cui': 'C1301808', 'cui_str': 'State'}, {'cui': 'C0442040', 'cui_str': 'Salivary (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0025219', 'cui_str': 'Melatonin'}, {'cui': 'C1456820', 'cui_str': 'Tumor Necrosis Factor-alpha'}, {'cui': 'C0021760', 'cui_str': 'Interleukin-6'}, {'cui': 'C0456079', 'cui_str': 'Level (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0048008', 'cui_str': 'Benzenamine, 4-((4-aminophenyl)sulfonyl)-N-hydroxy-'}, {'cui': 'C0449820', 'cui_str': 'Scores (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0332287', 'cui_str': 'With (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0003467', 'cui_str': 'Anxiety'}, {'cui': 'C0011581', 'cui_str': 'Neurosis, Depressive'}, {'cui': 'C0683368', 'cui_str': 'symptoms'}, {'cui': 'C0034746', 'cui_str': 'Response Time'}, {'cui': 'C4520529', 'cui_str': 'Insomnia severity index (assessment scale)'}, {'cui': 'C0451221', 'cui_str': 'Hospital anxiety and depression scale (assessment scale)'}, {'cui': 'C0079189', 'cui_str': 'Cytokine (substance)'}]",53.0,0.225428,"The Insomnia Severity Index (ISI), a psychomotor vigilance task, Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS-A/HADS-D), and levels of four salivary cytokines were evaluated by single time-of-day sampling at baseline and after 1 month of treatment.","[{'ForeName': 'Li', 'Initials': 'L', 'LastName': 'Zhang', 'Affiliation': ""Department of Pharmacy, Affiliated Hospital of Shaanxi University of Chinese Medicine, Xi'an, China.""}, {'ForeName': 'Ruihuan', 'Initials': 'R', 'LastName': 'Zhang', 'Affiliation': 'Graduate School, Shaanxi University of Chinese Medicine, Xianyang, China.'}, {'ForeName': 'Yan', 'Initials': 'Y', 'LastName': 'Shen', 'Affiliation': ""Department of Encephalopathy, Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital of Shaanxi Province, Xi'an, China.""}, {'ForeName': 'Shuzhen', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Qiao', 'Affiliation': ""Department of Encephalopathy, Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital of Shaanxi Province, Xi'an, China.""}, {'ForeName': 'Zhenliang', 'Initials': 'Z', 'LastName': 'Hui', 'Affiliation': ""Department of Encephalopathy, Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital of Shaanxi Province, Xi'an, China.""}, {'ForeName': 'Jun', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Chen', 'Affiliation': ""Department of Encephalopathy, Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital of Shaanxi Province, Xi'an, China.""}]",Chronobiology international,['10.1080/07420528.2020.1730880']

Two hundred eight patients were randomized into two groups (tirofiban i.v. and tirofiban i.c.). CMR was completed within 3-7 days after ST-segment-elevation myocardial infarction. One hundred thirty-two patients had a follow-up CMR at 6 months after discharge. The primary end point was the CMR measurements including myocardium strain, myocardial perfusion index, final infarct size, prevalence and extent of MVO, and the change of left ventricular end-diastolic volume (LVEDV) at six months follow-up. The second endpoint was major adverse cardiovascular events (composite of all-cause death, nonfatal reinfarction and congestive heart failure) in one year. The MVO prevalence and extent [56% versus 36%, p = 0.004; 2.08 (IQR: 1.18-5.07) g versus 1.68 (IQR: 0.30-3.28) g, p = 0.041] showed a significant difference between the intravenous and intracoronary groups. Global left ventricular peak longitudinal strain was significantly different in intracoronary groups compared to intravenous groups, - 12.5 [IQR: - 13.4 to - 10.9] versus - 12.3 [IQR: - 13.4 to - 10.4], respectively (P = 0.042).

1930,32073955,Improvement in Patient-Reported Outcomes With Intensity-Modulated Radiotherapy (RT) Compared With Standard RT: A Report From the NRG Oncology RTOG 1203 Study.,"PURPOSE
In oncology trials, the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) is the standard tool for reporting adverse events (AEs), but it may underreport symptoms experienced by patients. This analysis of the NRG Oncology RTOG 1203 compared symptom reporting by patients and clinicians during radiotherapy (RT).
PATIENTS AND METHODS
Patients with cervical or endometrial cancer requiring postoperative RT were randomly assigned to standard 4-field RT or intensity-modulated RT (IMRT). Patients completed the 6-item patient-reported outcomes version of the CTCAE (PRO-CTCAE) for GI toxicity assessing abdominal pain, diarrhea, and fecal incontinence at various time points. Patients reported symptoms on a 5-point scale. Clinicians recorded these AEs as CTCAE grades 1 to 5. Clinician- and patient-reported AEs were compared using McNemar's test for rates > 0%.
RESULTS
Of 278 eligible patients, 234 consented and completed the PRO-CTCAE. Patients reported high-grade abdominal pain 19.1% ( P < .0001), high-grade diarrhea 38.5% ( P < .0001), and fecal incontinence 6.8% more frequently than clinicians. Similar effects were seen between grade ≥ 1 CTCAE toxicity and any-grade patient-reported toxicity. Between-arm comparison of patient-reported high-grade AEs revealed that at 5 weeks of RT, patients who received IMRT experienced fewer GI AEs than patients who received 4-field pelvic RT with regard to frequency of diarrhea (18.2% difference; P = .01), frequency of fecal incontinence (8.2% difference; P = .01), and interference of fecal incontinence (8.5% difference; P = .04).
CONCLUSION
Patient-reported AEs showed a reduction in symptoms with IMRT compared with standard RT, whereas clinician-reported AEs revealed no difference. Clinicians also underreported symptomatic GI AEs compared with patients. This suggests that patient-reported symptomatic AEs are important to assess in this disease setting.",2020,"Patients reported high-grade abdominal pain 19.1% ( P < .0001), high-grade diarrhea 38.5% (

1931,32084053,Brief Report: Long-Term Follow-up of Smokers Living With HIV After an Intensive Behavioral Tobacco Treatment Intervention.,"INTRODUCTION
Cigarette smoking is extremely common among persons living with HIV (PLWH) in the United States, and it has emerged as a leading killer in this group. No tobacco treatment studied to date has demonstrated long-term efficacy.
METHODS
This was a follow-up study of PLWH adult smokers who completed a randomized controlled trial of positively Smoke Free group therapy from 2014 to 2017. Participants from 2 of the 3 trial sites were recalled to complete a long-term follow-up assessment, at least one year after initial enrollment.
RESULTS
Of the 342 candidates for this follow-up study, 11 had died before our attempts to contact them, and 194 of the remaining 331 (58.6%) completed the late follow-up assessment. Most (91.2%) of the remaining candidates could not be contacted despite numerous attempts. At a mean of 38.1 months after initial study enrollment, using an intention-to-treat, lost to follow-up = still smoking (worst case scenario) strategy, 12.7% of group therapy vs. 6.6% of control participants had biochemically verified 7-day point-prevalence abstinence, odds ratio = 2.06 (95% CI: 0.96-4.41), P = 0.06, and 10.3% of group therapy vs. 4.2% of control participants had biochemically verified 12-month point-prevalence abstinence, odds ratio = 2.61 (95% CI: 1.05-6.47, P = 0.03). Improvements in abstinence self-efficacy in the positively Smoke Free group observed in the original study were sustained through late follow-up.
CONCLUSIONS
Targeted group therapy for PLWH smokers was associated with increased cessation and sustained improvements in abstinence self-efficacy at a mean of more than 3 years of follow-up. This is the first trial to show long-term efficacy of tobacco treatment for PLWH.",2020,"CONCLUSIONS

1932,31367728,Frailty and Brain-Muscle Correlates in Older People With Type 2 Diabetes: A structural-MRI Explorative Study.,"OBJECTIVES
Muscle alterations, mainly functional alterations are frequently observed in older people with type 2 diabetes (T2DM). Sarcopenia may be one mechanism of transition to frailty in these people. Thus, we aim to explore the characteristics of muscle and its association with cerebral grey matter volumes within this group.
METHODS
Single center study nested within the international MID-Frail (a randomized clinical trial to evaluate the effectiveness of a multi-modal intervention in older people with T2DM on frailty and quality of life) trial participants underwent both brain and muscle T1 MRI, nutritional and functional assessments. Muscle areas were measured in rectus femoris (RF). Relationships between MRI grey matter volumes and muscle areas or function tests were described using positive and negative regressions.
RESULTS
Twenty-six subjects (7 female, mean age 78.2 y, SD 5.0), 6 frail and 20 pre-frail were explored in this sub-study. Frail subjects had lower Mini Nutritional Assessment (MNA), Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB), hip flexor strength than pre-frail ones but similar BMI and balance. Total SPPB was positively related with hip flexor strength and maximal RF area. Balance SPPB sub-score was unrelated to strength or RF area. MNA score was correlated with hip flexor strength and to global grey matter but not to SPPB. Hip flexor strength was correlated with grey matter areas involved in motor control. Walking time was negatively and rising chair sub-score was positively associated with grey matter volumes of motor areas.

1933,31367733,"Positive Effects of ""Textured Lunches"" Gatherings and Oral Exercises Combined with Physical Exercises on Oral and Physical Function in Older Individuals: A Cluster Randomized Controlled Trial.","OBJECTIVES
Proper nutrition and physical exercises are essential to prevent frailty in older adults. Proper masticatory performance and oral function may influence on physical activities as well since the mouth is the entrance of nutrition and digestion. Thus, the present study aimed to test the combined program of specially devised lunch gatherings containing textured foods with oral and physical exercises on the improvement of oral and physical function in community-dwelling older adults.
DESIGN
A Cluster randomized controlled trial; Setting and Participants: Eighty-six community-dwelling older adults in Daito city, Japan, were randomly assigned into control (n = 43) or intervention (n = 43) groups.
INTERVENTION
The control group performed the physical exercise regimen only. The intervention group participated in a 12-week physical and oral exercise program and ate a so-called ""munchy lunch"" that introduced textured foods with proper nutrients together after performing the physical exercise twice a week following brief dietary instruction at the intervention onset. Physical training and lunch gatherings were held at local public centers.
MEASUREMENTS
The differences in measured variables for physical and oral function between baseline and 12 weeks of intervention were statistically tested.
RESULTS
Oral function as measured by tongue pressure increased significantly in the intervention group (p=0.031), but not in the control group. Physical properties and activities, including body fat percentage and results of the timed up and go test, decreased more significantly in the intervention group than in controls (p<0.05).
CONCLUSIONS
Our findings suggest that a combined program of textured lunch gatherings with oral and physical exercises may improve physical and oral function as a preventative approach for frailty in community-dwelling older adults.",2019,"RESULTS

1934,31443732,Peer approaches to self-management (PALS): comparing a peer mentoring approach for disease self-management in African American women with lupus with a social support control: study protocol for a randomized controlled trial.,"BACKGROUND
Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE or lupus) is a chronic autoimmune disease that is associated with increased morbidity, mortality, healthcare costs and decreased quality of life. African Americans in the USA have three to four times greater prevalence of SLE, risk of developing SLE at an earlier age, and SLE-related disease activity, damage, and mortality compared with Caucasians, with the highest rates experienced by African American women. There is strong evidence that patient-level factors are associated with outcomes, which justifies targeting them with intervention. While evidence-based self-management interventions that incorporate both social support and health education have reduced pain, improved function, and delayed disability among patients with SLE, African Americans and women are still disproportionately impacted by SLE. Peer mentoring interventions are effective in other chronic conditions that disproportionately affect minorities, such as diabetes mellitus, HIV, and kidney disease, but there is currently no empirically tested peer mentoring intervention developed for patients with SLE. Preliminary data from our group suggest that peer mentoring improves self-management, reduces disease activity, and improves health-related quality of life (HRQOL) in African American women with SLE.
METHODS
This study will test an innovative, manualized peer mentorship program designed to provide modeling and reinforcement by peers (mentors) to other African American women with SLE (mentees) to encourage them to engage in activities that promote disease self-management. Through a randomized, ""mentored"" or ""support group"" controlled design, we will assess the efficacy and mechanism(s) of this intervention in self-management, disease activity, and HRQOL.
DISCUSSION
This is the first study to test peer mentorship as an alternative strategy to improve outcomes in African American women with SLE. This could result in a model for other programs that aim to improve disease self-management, disease activity, and HRQOL in African American women suffering from chronic illness. The peer mentoring approach is uniquely fitted to African Americans, and this intervention has the potential to lead to health improvements for African American women with SLE that have not been attainable with other interventions. This would significantly reduce disparities and have considerable public health impact.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the biosimilar candidate of adalimumab (HS016) compared with adalimumab (Humira) for the treatment of active ankylosing spondylitis.
METHODS
A multicenter, randomized, double-blind, parallel, positive control, phase III clinical trial was conducted at 28 locations in China. Patients with active ankylosing spondylitis were randomized in a 2:1 ratio to subcutaneously receive 40 mg of either HS016 or adalimumab every other week for 24 weeks. The primary endpoint was to achieve at least a 20% improvement (ASAS20) in patients at 24 weeks according to the Assessment of Spondyloarthritis International Society criteria. The secondary endpoint included other efficacy assessment parameters, health evaluations, safety, pharmacokinetic, and immunogenicity parameters.
RESULTS
Following the random assignment of 648 patients into HS016 (n = 416) and adalimumab (n = 232) groups, no significant difference was found in the ASAS20 response rates at 24 weeks between the HS016 (364/416, 87.5%) and adalimumab (209/232, 90.1%) treatments and the difference between the response rates (- 2.59%; 90% confidence interval [CI] - 6.77 to 1.60) was within the predefined equivalence margin (± 15%). There were also no significant differences when the secondary endpoints were compared (all p > 0.05). Similarly, the rates of treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) were not significantly different between the two groups, with most TEAEs being mild to moderate. Only nine severe cases were found, including seven within the HS016 group, three (0.7%) of which were tuberculosis cases. Plasma concentrations of HS016 and adalimumab from weeks 12 to 14 were similar during the steady-state period and steady-state maximal concentration (C max,ss ) was equivalent for HS016 (7356.6 ng/mL) and adalimumab (7600.3 ng/mL). The accumulated proportion of patients with positive human anti-human antibodies (HAHAs) at week 24 was 326/412 (79.1%) in the HS016 group and 183/229 (79.9%) in the adalimumab group (p > 0.05), while the accumulated proportion of patients with positive neutralizing antibody (NAb) tests were 72/412 (17.5%) in the HS016 group and 43/229 (18.8%) in the adalimumab group (p > 0.05).
CONCLUSION
HS016 resembled adalimumab in efficacy and safety over the 24-week treatment period.

1936,31896620,Safety and efficacy of omaveloxolone in patients with mitochondrial myopathy: MOTOR trial.,"OBJECTIVE
To investigate the safety and efficacy of escalating doses of the semi-synthetic triterpenoid omaveloxolone in patients with mitochondrial myopathy.
METHODS
In cohorts of 8-13, 53 participants were randomized double-blind to 12 weeks of treatment with omaveloxolone 5, 10, 20, 40, 80, or 160 mg, or placebo. Outcome measures were change in peak cycling exercise workload (primary), in 6-minute walk test (6MWT) distance (secondary), and in submaximal exercise heart rate and plasma lactate (exploratory).
RESULTS
No differences in peak workload or 6MWT were observed at week 12 with omaveloxolone treatment vs placebo for all omaveloxolone dose groups. In contrast, omaveloxolone 160 mg reduced heart rate at week 12 by 12.0 ± 4.6 bpm (SE) during submaximal exercise vs placebo, p = 0.01, and by 8.7 ± 3.5 bpm (SE) vs baseline, p = 0.02. Similarly, blood lactate was 1.4 ± 0.7 mM (SE) lower vs placebo, p = 0.04, and 1.6 ± 0.5 mM (SE) lower vs baseline at week 12, p = 0.003, with omaveloxolone 160 mg treatment. Adverse events were generally mild and infrequent.
CONCLUSIONS
Omaveloxolone 160 mg was well-tolerated, and did not lead to change in the primary outcome measure, but improved exploratory endpoints lowering heart rate and lactate production during submaximal exercise, consistent with improved mitochondrial function and submaximal exercise tolerance. Therefore, omaveloxolone potentially benefits patients with mitochondrial myopathy, which encourages further investigations of omaveloxolone in this patient group.

1937,32065303,Differential effects of BCG vaccine on immune responses induced by vi polysaccharide typhoid fever vaccination: an explorative randomized trial.,"The Vi polysaccharide typhoid fever vaccine (TFV) provides incomplete protection against typhoid fever. BCG, the vaccine against tuberculosis, can potentiate immune responses to other vaccines through induction of trained innate immunity and heterologous adaptive immunity. We performed an explorative, randomized, noncontrolled open trial to investigate whether BCG vaccination increases humoral and cellular response to TFV and whether BCG and TFV modulate nonspecific immune responses. Thirty volunteers were randomized to receive either TFV alone or BCG followed by TFV after 2 weeks. Ex vivo leukocyte responses and anti-Vi IgG antibody titers were measured 2 weeks and 3 months after TFV. BCG administration prior to TFV vaccination did not increase specific humoral or cellular immune responses to Salmonella typhi. TFV vaccination decreased pro-inflammatory responses to non-related stimuli. This effect was counteracted by prior BCG administration, which also led to decreased IL-10 and increased IL-22 responses to non-related stimuli. In an in vitro model of trained immunity TFV led to immunotolerance, which was partially reversed by BCG-induced trained immunity. BCG does not modulate adaptive immune responses to TFV but partially prevents inhibition of innate immune responses induced by TFV. Nonspecific effects of vaccines to unrelated microbial stimuli must be considered in the evaluation of their biological effects (ClinicalTrials.gov NCT02175420).",2020,"This effect was counteracted by prior BCG administration, which also led to decreased IL-10 and increased IL-22 responses to non-related stimuli.","['Thirty volunteers', 'vi polysaccharide typhoid fever vaccination']","['BCG', 'TFV alone or BCG', 'BCG vaccine', 'Vi polysaccharide typhoid fever vaccine (TFV', 'TFV vaccination', 'BCG vaccination']","['IL-10 and increased IL-22 responses', 'specific humoral or cellular immune responses', 'Ex vivo leukocyte responses and anti-Vi IgG antibody titers']","[{'cui': 'C3816446', 'cui_str': '30'}, {'cui': 'C0042960', 'cui_str': 'Volunteer Workers'}, {'cui': 'C0032594', 'cui_str': 'Glycans'}, {'cui': 'C0041466', 'cui_str': 'Salmonella typhi Infection'}, {'cui': 'C0042196', 'cui_str': 'Vaccination'}]","[{'cui': 'C0085957', 'cui_str': 'BCG'}, {'cui': 'C0004886', 'cui_str': 'BCG Vaccine'}, {'cui': 'C0032594', 'cui_str': 'Glycans'}, {'cui': 'C0041466', 'cui_str': 'Salmonella typhi Infection'}, {'cui': 'C0042210', 'cui_str': 'Vaccines'}, {'cui': 'C0042196', 'cui_str': 'Vaccination'}, {'cui': 'C0199804', 'cui_str': 'BCG immunization'}]","[{'cui': 'C0085295', 'cui_str': 'Interleukin-10'}, {'cui': 'C0205217', 'cui_str': 'Increased (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0961814', 'cui_str': 'interleukin-22'}, {'cui': 'C0205369', 'cui_str': 'Specified'}, {'cui': 'C1817908', 'cui_str': 'Cellular Immune Response'}, {'cui': 'C0023516', 'cui_str': 'Blood Corpuscles, White'}, {'cui': 'C0020852', 'cui_str': 'Immunoglobulin G'}, {'cui': 'C1287242', 'cui_str': 'Finding of antibody titer (finding)'}]",30.0,0.197746,"This effect was counteracted by prior BCG administration, which also led to decreased IL-10 and increased IL-22 responses to non-related stimuli.","[{'ForeName': 'Bastiaan A', 'Initials': 'BA', 'LastName': 'Blok', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Internal Medicine and Radboud Center for Infectious Diseases (RCI), Radboud University Medical Center, 6526, GA, Nijmegen, The Netherlands.'}, {'ForeName': 'Rob J W', 'Initials': 'RJW', 'LastName': 'Arts', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Internal Medicine and Radboud Center for Infectious Diseases (RCI), Radboud University Medical Center, 6526, GA, Nijmegen, The Netherlands.'}, {'ForeName': 'Reinout', 'Initials': 'R', 'LastName': 'van Crevel', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Internal Medicine and Radboud Center for Infectious Diseases (RCI), Radboud University Medical Center, 6526, GA, Nijmegen, The Netherlands.'}, {'ForeName': 'Peter', 'Initials': 'P', 'LastName': 'Aaby', 'Affiliation': 'Research Center for Vitamins and Vaccines, Bandim Health Project, Statens Serum Institut, DK-2300, Copenhagen, Denmark.'}, {'ForeName': 'Leo A B', 'Initials': 'LAB', 'LastName': 'Joosten', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Internal Medicine and Radboud Center for Infectious Diseases (RCI), Radboud University Medical Center, 6526, GA, Nijmegen, The Netherlands.'}, {'ForeName': 'Christine S', 'Initials': 'CS', 'LastName': 'Benn', 'Affiliation': 'Research Center for Vitamins and Vaccines, Bandim Health Project, Statens Serum Institut, DK-2300, Copenhagen, Denmark.'}, {'ForeName': 'Mihai G', 'Initials': 'MG', 'LastName': 'Netea', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Internal Medicine and Radboud Center for Infectious Diseases (RCI), Radboud University Medical Center, 6526, GA, Nijmegen, The Netherlands. mihai.netea@radboudumc.nl.'}]",European journal of clinical microbiology & infectious diseases : official publication of the European Society of Clinical Microbiology,['10.1007/s10096-020-03813-y']
1938,31505907,"Ten-Day Concomitant, 10-Day Sequential, and 7-Day Triple Therapy as First-Line Treatment for Helicobacter pylori Infection: A Nationwide Randomized Trial in Korea.","Background/Aims
This nationwide, multicenter prospective randomized controlled trial aimed to compare the efficacy and safety of 10-day concomitant therapy (CT) and 10-day sequential therapy (ST) with 7-day clarithromycin-containing triple therapy (TT) as first-line treatment for Helicobacter pylori infection in the Korean population.
Methods
Patients with H. pylori infection were assigned randomly to 7d-TT (lansoprazole 30 mg, amoxicillin 1 g, and clarithromycin 500 mg twice daily for 7 days), 10d-ST (lansoprazole 30 mg and amoxicillin 1 g twice daily for the first 5 days, followed by lansoprazole 30 mg, clarithromycin 500 mg, and metronidazole 500 mg twice daily for the remaining 5 days), or 10d-CT (lansoprazole 30 mg, amoxicillin 1 g, clarithromycin 500 mg, and metronidazole 500 mg twice daily for 10 days). The primary endpoint was eradication rate by intention-to-treat (ITT) and per-protocol (PP) analyses.
Results
A total of 1,141 patients were included. The 10d-CT protocol achieved a markedly higher eradication rate than the 7d-TT protocol in both the ITT (81.2% vs 63.9%) and PP analyses (90.6% vs 71.4%). The eradication rate of the 10d-ST protocol was superior to that of the 7d-TT protocol (76.3% vs 63.9%, ITT analysis; 85.0% vs 71.4%, PP analysis). No significant differences in adherence or serious side effects were found among the three treatment arms.

1939,31365952,A study on treatment sensitivity of ecological momentary assessment in obsessive-compulsive disorder.,"As part of a larger clinical trial, this ecological momentary assessment (EMA) study pursued the main goal of demonstrating that the EMA method is sensitive to treatment effects of detached mindfulness and cognitive restructuring for obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). A second goal was to provide a descriptive analysis of OCD symptoms and influencing factors in participants' everyday lives. Thirty-nine participants were included in the final analyses. EMA sampling involved a smartphone and comprised 4 days with 10 random prompts per day both before (Pre-Treatment EMA) and after the completion of a 2-week clinical intervention of either detached mindfulness or cognitive restructuring (Post-Treatment EMA) that participants had been randomly allocated to. The EMA questionnaire included items on the frequency of obsessions, subjective burden due to obsessions, perceived current stress, emotions, and on the frequency of compulsions and other dysfunctional behaviors. Descriptive Pre-Treatment EMA results highlight the importance of compulsions and emotional states of tension/discomfort in OCD. Pre-Post comparisons showed a significant reduction of avoidance behavior, obsessions, and burden due to obsessions, with a nonsignificant trend also indicating a reduction of compulsions. There was no pre to post effect concerning emotions. This study adds to the existing research on OCD symptoms and offers further evidence in confirmation of established theoretical models of OCD. Also, our results can be taken as evidence for treatment sensitivity of the EMA method in OCD.

1940,31325110,Long-Term Effect of Immediate Versus Delayed Fingolimod Treatment in Young Adult Patients with Relapsing-Remitting Multiple Sclerosis: Pooled Analysis from the FREEDOMS/FREEDOMS II Trials.,"INTRODUCTION
Fingolimod has demonstrated clinical and MRI benefits versus placebo/interferon β-1a in young adults with multiple sclerosis (MS). Here we report the long-term effects of fingolimod 0.5 mg on clinical and MRI outcomes in young adults with MS aged ≤ 30 years followed up for up to 8 years (96 months).
METHODS
This post hoc analysis of pooled FREEDOMS/FREEDOMS II studies included patients who either received fingolimod 0.5 mg from randomization (immediate; N = 163) or switched from placebo to fingolimod at month (M) 24 (delayed; N = 147). The 6-month confirmed disability improvement [6m-CDI: based on Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS)], 6m-CDI-plus (6m-CDI+; EDSS, 9-Hole Peg Test, Timed 25-Foot Walk Test), 6-month confirmed disability progression (6m-CDP), time to EDSS score ≥ 4, annualized relapse rates (ARRs), new/newly enlarging T2 (neT2) lesions, and annual rate of brain volume loss (BVL) were analyzed from baseline to M24, M48, and M96. Cox regression and negative binomial regression models were used to analyze measured outcomes.
RESULTS
At baseline, more than two-thirds of young adult patients were treatment naïve, had more than two relapses in the previous 2 years, and EDSS score < 2. From M0 to M96, a significantly higher proportion of young adult patients in the immediate group (vs. delayed group) achieved 6m-CDI (58.2% vs. 30.5%, p = 0.0206) and 6m-CDI+ (70.6% vs. 42.3%, p = 0.0149); significantly fewer patients reached 6m-CDP (20.1% vs. 34.7%, p = 0.0058) and EDSS ≥ 4 (24.1% vs. 34.1%, p = 0.0041). Up to M96, young adults in the immediate versus delayed group had lower ARRs (0.16 vs. 0.38, p < 0.0001) and a higher proportion of patients were free of neT2 lesions at M48 (31.0% vs. 5.0%, p = 0.0011).
CONCLUSION
In young adult patients with MS, immediate versus delayed fingolimod treatment was associated with improved disease outcomes and greater long-term benefits in both disease activity and disability progression.

1941,31694978,Weight Loss and Illness Severity in Adolescents With Atypical Anorexia Nervosa.,"BACKGROUND
Lower weight has historically been equated with more severe illness in anorexia nervosa (AN). Reliance on admission weight to guide clinical concern is challenged by the rise in patients with atypical anorexia nervosa (AAN) requiring hospitalization at normal weight.
METHODS
We examined weight history and illness severity in 12- to 24-year-olds with AN ( n = 66) and AAN ( n = 50) in a randomized clinical trial, the Study of Refeeding to Optimize Inpatient Gains (www.clinicaltrials.gov; NCT02488109). Amount of weight loss was the difference between the highest historical percentage median BMI and admission; rate was the amount divided by duration (months). Unpaired t tests compared AAN and AN; multiple variable regressions examined associations between weight history variables and markers of illness severity at admission. Stepwise regression examined the explanatory value of weight and menstrual history on selected markers.
RESULTS
Participants were 16.5 ± 2.6 years old, and 91% were of female sex. Groups did not differ by weight history or admission heart rate (HR). Eating Disorder Examination Questionnaire global scores were higher in AAN (mean 3.80 [SD 1.66] vs mean 3.00 [SD 1.66]; P = .02). Independent of admission weight, lower HR (β = -0.492 [confidence interval (CI) -0.883 to -0.100]; P = .01) was associated with faster loss; lower serum phosphorus was associated with a greater amount (β = -0.005 [CI -0.010 to 0.000]; P = .04) and longer duration (β = -0.011 [CI -0.017 to 0.005]; P = .001). Weight and menstrual history explained 28% of the variance in HR and 36% of the variance in serum phosphorus.
CONCLUSIONS
Weight history was independently associated with markers of malnutrition in inpatients with restrictive eating disorders across a range of body weights and should be considered when assessing illness severity on hospital admission.",2019,Eating Disorder Examination Questionnaire global scores were higher in AAN (mean 3.80 [SD 1.66] vs mean 3.00 [SD 1.66]; P = .02).,"['Participants were 16.5 ± 2.6 years old, and 91% were of female sex', 'patients with atypical anorexia nervosa (AAN) requiring hospitalization at normal weight', 'Adolescents With Atypical Anorexia Nervosa', '12- to 24-year-olds with AN ( n = 66) and AAN ( n = 50', 'inpatients with restrictive eating disorders']",[],"['weight history or admission heart rate (HR', 'Eating Disorder Examination Questionnaire global scores', 'Weight and menstrual history', 'weight history and illness severity', 'weight loss', 'Weight Loss and Illness Severity']","[{'cui': 'C4517633', 'cui_str': 'Two point six'}, {'cui': 'C0439234', 'cui_str': 'year (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0677546', 'cui_str': 'Old episode (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0086287', 'cui_str': 'Females'}, {'cui': 'C1314687', 'cui_str': 'Sexual intercourse - finding'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C0338959', 'cui_str': 'Atypical anorexia nervosa (disorder)'}, {'cui': 'C0019993', 'cui_str': 'Hospitalization'}, {'cui': 'C2712185', 'cui_str': 'Normal weight (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C0205653', 'cui_str': 'Adolescent'}, {'cui': 'C0021562', 'cui_str': 'Inpatient (person)'}, {'cui': 'C0013473', 'cui_str': 'Eating Disorders'}]",[],"[{'cui': 'C1305866', 'cui_str': 'Weighing patient (procedure)'}, {'cui': 'C0019665', 'cui_str': 'historical aspects'}, {'cui': 'C0018810', 'cui_str': 'Cardiac rate'}, {'cui': 'C2959762', 'cui_str': 'Eating disorder examination questionnaire global score (observable entity)'}, {'cui': 'C0221423', 'cui_str': 'Illness (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C0439793', 'cui_str': 'Severity (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C1262477', 'cui_str': 'Weight Reduction'}]",,0.0478223,Eating Disorder Examination Questionnaire global scores were higher in AAN (mean 3.80 [SD 1.66] vs mean 3.00 [SD 1.66]; P = .02).,"[{'ForeName': 'Andrea K', 'Initials': 'AK', 'LastName': 'Garber', 'Affiliation': 'Division of Adolescent and Young Adult Medicine, Departments of Pediatrics, andrea.garber@ucsf.edu.'}, {'ForeName': 'Jing', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Cheng', 'Affiliation': 'Preventive and Restorative Dental Sciences.'}, {'ForeName': 'Erin C', 'Initials': 'EC', 'LastName': 'Accurso', 'Affiliation': 'Psychiatry, and.'}, {'ForeName': 'Sally H', 'Initials': 'SH', 'LastName': 'Adams', 'Affiliation': 'Division of Adolescent and Young Adult Medicine, Departments of Pediatrics.'}, {'ForeName': 'Sara M', 'Initials': 'SM', 'LastName': 'Buckelew', 'Affiliation': 'Division of Adolescent and Young Adult Medicine, Departments of Pediatrics.'}, {'ForeName': 'Cynthia J', 'Initials': 'CJ', 'LastName': 'Kapphahn', 'Affiliation': 'Division of Adolescent Medicine, Department of Pediatrics, Stanford University, Stanford, California.'}, {'ForeName': 'Anna', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Kreiter', 'Affiliation': 'Division of Adolescent Medicine, Department of Pediatrics, Stanford University, Stanford, California.'}, {'ForeName': 'Daniel', 'Initials': 'D', 'LastName': 'Le Grange', 'Affiliation': 'Psychiatry, and.'}, {'ForeName': 'Vanessa I', 'Initials': 'VI', 'LastName': 'Machen', 'Affiliation': 'Division of Adolescent and Young Adult Medicine, Departments of Pediatrics.'}, {'ForeName': 'Anna-Barbara', 'Initials': 'AB', 'LastName': 'Moscicki', 'Affiliation': 'Division of Adolescent and Young Adult Medicine, Department of Pediatrics, University of California, Los Angeles, Los Angeles, California.'}, {'ForeName': 'Kristina', 'Initials': 'K', 'LastName': 'Saffran', 'Affiliation': 'Division of Adolescent Medicine, Department of Pediatrics, Stanford University, Stanford, California.'}, {'ForeName': 'Allyson F', 'Initials': 'AF', 'LastName': 'Sy', 'Affiliation': 'Division of Adolescent Medicine, Department of Pediatrics, Stanford University, Stanford, California.'}, {'ForeName': 'Leslie', 'Initials': 'L', 'LastName': 'Wilson', 'Affiliation': 'Clinical Pharmacy, University of California, San Francisco, San Francisco, California.'}, {'ForeName': 'Neville H', 'Initials': 'NH', 'LastName': 'Golden', 'Affiliation': 'Division of Adolescent Medicine, Department of Pediatrics, Stanford University, Stanford, California.'}]",Pediatrics,['10.1542/peds.2019-2339']
1942,31961463,Metformin plus megestrol acetate compared with megestrol acetate alone as fertility-sparing treatment in patients with atypical endometrial hyperplasia and well-differentiated endometrial cancer: a randomised controlled trial.,"OBJECTIVE
To assess the efficacy of metformin in megestrol acetate (MA)-based fertility-sparing treatment for patients with atypical endometrial hyperplasia (AEH) and endometrioid endometrial cancer (EEC).
DESIGN
A randomised, single-centre, open-label, controlled trial conducted between October 2013 and December 2017.
SETTING
Shanghai OBGYN Hospital of Fudan University, China.
POPULATION
A total of 150 patients (18-45 years old) with primary AEH or well-differentiated EEC were randomised into an MA group (n = 74) and an MA plus metformin group (n = 76).
METHODS
Patients with AEH or EEC were firstly stratified, then randomised to receive MA (160 mg orally, daily) or MA (160 mg orally, daily) plus metformin (500 mg orally, three times a day).
MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURES
The primary efficacy parameter was the cumulate complete response (CR) rate within 16 weeks of treatment (16w-CR rate); the secondary efficacy parameters were 30w-CR rate and adverse events.
RESULTS
The 16w-CR rate was higher in the metformin plus MA group than in the MA-only group (34.3 versus 20.7%, odds ratio [OR] 2.0, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.89-4.51, P = 0.09) but the difference was more significant in 102 AEH patients (39.6 versus 20.4%, OR 2.56, 95% CI 1.06-6.21, P = 0.04). This effect of metformin was also significant in non-obese (51.4 versus 24.3%, OR 3.28, 95% CI 1.22-8.84, P = 0.02) and insulin-sensitive (54.8 versus 28.6%, OR 3.04, 95% CI 1.03-8.97, P = 0.04) subgroups of AEH women. No significant result was found in secondary endpoints.
CONCLUSION
As a fertility-sparing treatment, metformin plus MA was associated with a higher early CR rate compared with MA alone in AEH patients.

1943,31634407,Long-term efficacy and safety of phrenic nerve stimulation for the treatment of central sleep apnea.,"STUDY OBJECTIVE
To evaluate long-term efficacy and safety of phrenic nerve stimulation (PNS) in patients with moderate-to-severe central sleep apnea (CSA) through 3 years of therapy.
METHODS
Patients in the remedē System Pivotal Trial were observed every 3 months after implant until US Food and Drug Administration approval. At the time of approval and study closure, all patients completed 24 months of follow-up; 33 patients had not reached the 36-month visit. Sleep metrics (polysomnography) and echocardiographic parameters are reported at baseline, 12, 18, and 24 months, in addition to available 36-month sleep results from polygraphy. Safety was assessed through 36 months; however, analysis focused through 24 months and available 36-month results are provided.
RESULTS
Patients were assessed at 24 (n = 109) and 36 (n = 60) months. Baseline characteristics included mean age 64 years, 91% male, and mean apnea-hypopnea index 47 events per hour. Sleep metrics (apnea-hypopnea index (AHI), central apnea index, arousal index, oxygen desaturation index, rapid eye movement sleep) remained improved through 24 and 36 months with continuous use of PNS therapy. At least 60% of patients in the treatment group achieved at least 50% reduction in AHI through 24 months. Serious adverse events (SAEs) related to the remedē System implant procedure, device, or therapy through 24 months were reported by 10% of patients, no unanticipated adverse device effects or deaths, and all events resolved. No additional related SAEs were reported between 24 and 36 months.
CONCLUSION
These data suggest beneficial effects of long-term PNS in patients with CSA appear to sustain through 36 months with no new safety concerns.

1944,31830535,Rehabilitation of the upper arm early after stroke: Video games versus conventional rehabilitation. A randomized controlled trial.,"BACKGROUND
Few rehabilitation methods have proven their efficacy in increasing sensori-motor recovery and/or function of the upper limb (UL) after stroke. Video games (VGs) are promising tools in this indication.
OBJECTIVE
To compare UL rehabilitation by using VGs and conventional rehabilitation (CR) in patients with sub-acute stroke.
DESIGN
Single-blind, multicentric trial, with central randomization and stratification by center.
SETTING
Physical and rehabilitation medicine departments of 2 university hospitals.
PARTICIPANTS
Adults within 3 months after a first vascular cerebral accident, with UL Fugl Meyer Score (UL-FMS)<30/66 and without major cognitive impairment.
INTERVENTION
A 45-min additional session of conventional occupational therapy (OT) or a VG-based OT session as add-on therapy to usual rehabilitation programs, 5 days/week for 6 weeks.
MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES
Primary outcome: UL-FMS. Secondary outcome: Box and Block Test (BBT), Wolf Motor Function test (WMFT), Motor Activity Log (MAL), Barthel Index and quality of life (SF-36).
RESULTS
We included 51 patients (20 women) at a mean (SD) of 27.2 (19.4) days post-stroke (mean age 58 years [range 24-83]), 26 in the CR group and 25 in the VG group (23 in each group at 6-month follow-up). The mean duration of the additional rehabilitation session was similar in both groups: 29.3 (4.3) vs 28.0 (4.4) min in CR and VG groups. Shoulder pain occurred in 4 patients in the VG group versus 7 in the CR group. At day 45, gain in UL-FMS did not significantly differ between the groups (CR mean 17.8 [14.6] vs VG 24.1 [14.8]; P=0.10), whereas gain in BBT was doubled in the VG group (CR 7.4 [12.2] vs VG 15.7 [16.3]; P=0.02). At 6-month follow-up, the study was inconclusive about between-group differences in UL-FMS, BBT and other criteria. Post-hoc analysis showed that gains in UL-FMS or BBT were significantly higher in the VG than CR group for patients included within 30 days post-stroke.
CONCLUSION
In general, we cannot conclude that video gaming and conventional OT led to different long-term sensorimotor recovery of the UL after sub-acute stroke. However, when applied within the first month after stroke, video gaming was more efficient than conventional rehabilitation on both sensorimotor recovery and gross grasping function.

1945,31356475,Lactated Ringer's Versus 4% Albumin on Lactated Ringer's in Early Sepsis Therapy in Cancer Patients: A Pilot Single-Center Randomized Trial.,"OBJECTIVE
To investigate the effects of the administration of 4% albumin on lactated Ringer's, when compared with lactated Ringer's alone, in the early phase of sepsis in cancer patients.
DESIGN
Single-center, randomized, double-blind, controlled-parallel trial.
SETTING
A tertiary care university cancer hospital.
PATIENTS
Cancer patients with severe sepsis or septic shock.
INTERVENTIONS
Between October 2014 and December 2016, patients were randomly assigned to receive either bolus of albumin in a lactated Ringer's solution or lactated Ringer's solution alone during the first 6 hours of fluid resuscitation after intensive care medicine (ICU) admission. Primary outcome was defined as death from any cause at 7 days. Secondary outcomes were defined as death from any cause within 28 days, change in Sequence Organ Failure Assessment scores from baseline to day 7, days alive and free of mechanical ventilation, days alive and free of vasopressor, renal replacement therapy during ICU stay, and length of ICU and hospital stay.
MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS
A total of 360 patients were enrolled in the trial. At 7 days, 46 of 180 patients (26%) died in the albumin group and 40 of 180 (22%) died in the lactated Ringer's group (p = 0.5). At 28 days, 96 of 180 patients (53%) died in the albumin group and 83 of 180 (46%) died in the lactated Ringer's group (p = 0.2). No significant differences in secondary outcomes were observed.

1946,31939768,Intergroup anxiety in pain care: impact on treatment recommendations made by white providers for black patients.,"Race disparities in pain care are well-documented. Given that most black patients are treated by white providers, patient-provider racial discordance is one hypothesized contributor to these disparities. Research and theory suggest that providers' trait-level intergroup anxiety impacts their state-level comfort while treating patients, which, in turn, impacts their pain treatment decisions. To test these hypothesized relationships, we conducted a planned secondary analysis of data from a randomized controlled trial of a perspective-taking intervention to reduce pain treatment disparities. Mediation analyses were conducted on treatment decision data from white providers for black virtual patients with chronic pain. Results indicated that white providers with higher trait-level intergroup anxiety reported lower state-level comfort treating black patients and were thereby more likely to recommend opioid (indirect effect = 0.76, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.21-1.51) and pain specialty (indirect effect = 0.91, 95% CI: 0.26-1.78) treatments and less likely to recommend nonopioid analgesics (indirect effect = -0.45, 95% CI: -0.94 to -0.12). Neither trait-level intergroup anxiety nor state-level comfort significantly influenced provider decisions for physical therapy. This study provides important new information about intrapersonal and interpersonal contributors to race disparities in chronic pain care. These findings suggest that intergroup anxiety and the resulting situational discomfort encroach on the clinical decision-making process by influencing white providers' decisions about which pain treatments to recommend to black patients. Should these findings be replicated in future studies, they would support interventions to help providers become more aware of their trait-level intergroup anxiety and manage their state-level reactions to patients who are racially/ethnically different from themselves.",2020,Neither trait-level intergroup anxiety nor state-level comfort significantly influenced provider decisions for physical therapy.,"['Black virtual patients with chronic pain', 'White providers for Black patients']",['perspective-taking intervention'],['pain specialty'],"[{'cui': 'C0439541', 'cui_str': 'Black color (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C0150055', 'cui_str': 'Chronic pain (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C0043157', 'cui_str': 'Whites'}]","[{'cui': 'C1515187', 'cui_str': 'Take'}]","[{'cui': 'C0030193', 'cui_str': 'Pain'}]",,0.0745156,Neither trait-level intergroup anxiety nor state-level comfort significantly influenced provider decisions for physical therapy.,"[{'ForeName': 'Alexis D', 'Initials': 'AD', 'LastName': 'Grant', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Psychology, Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis, Indianapolis, IN, United States.'}, {'ForeName': 'Megan M', 'Initials': 'MM', 'LastName': 'Miller', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Psychology, Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis, Indianapolis, IN, United States.'}, {'ForeName': 'Nicole A', 'Initials': 'NA', 'LastName': 'Hollingshead', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Family Medicine, The Ohio State University, Columbus, OH, United States.'}, {'ForeName': 'Tracy M', 'Initials': 'TM', 'LastName': 'Anastas', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Psychology, Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis, Indianapolis, IN, United States.'}, {'ForeName': 'Adam T', 'Initials': 'AT', 'LastName': 'Hirsh', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Psychology, Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis, Indianapolis, IN, United States.'}]",Pain,['10.1097/j.pain.0000000000001806']
1947,31303296,"Unpacking the null: a post-hoc analysis of a cluster-randomised controlled trial of the WHO Safe Childbirth Checklist in Uttar Pradesh, India (BetterBirth).","BACKGROUND
A coaching-based implementation of the WHO Safe Childbirth Checklist in Uttar Pradesh, India, improved adherence to evidence-based practices, but did not reduce perinatal mortality, maternal morbidity, or maternal mortality. We examined facility-level correlates of the outcomes, which varied widely across the 120 study facilities.
METHODS
We did a post-hoc analysis of the coaching-based implementation of the WHO Safe Childbirth Checklist in Uttar Pradesh. We used multivariable modelling to identify correlations between 30 facility-level characteristics and each health outcome (perinatal mortality, maternal morbidity, or maternal mortality). To identify contexts in which the intervention might have had an effect, we then ran the models on data restricted to the period of intensive coaching and among patients not referred out of the facilities.
FINDINGS
In the multivariable context, perinatal mortality was associated with only 3 of the 30 variables: female literacy at the district level, geographical location, and previous neonatal mortality. Maternal morbidity was only associated with geographical location. No facility-level predictors were associated with maternal mortality. Among facilities in the lowest tertile of birth volume (<95 births per month), our models estimated perinatal mortality was 17 (95% CI 11·7-24·8) per 1000 births in the intervention group versus 38 (31·6-44·8) per 1000 in the control group (p<0·0001).
INTERPRETATION
Mortality was not directly associated with measured facility-level indicators but was associated with general risk factors. The absence of correlation between expected predictors and patient outcomes and the association between improved outcomes and the intervention in smaller facilities suggest a need for additional measures of quality of care that take into account complexity.

1948,32040141,Comparison of Integrated Outpatient Palliative Care With Standard Care in Patients With Parkinson Disease and Related Disorders: A Randomized Clinical Trial.,"Importance
Parkinson disease and related disorders (PDRD) have consequences for quality of life (QoL) and are the 14th leading cause of death in the United States. Despite growing interest in palliative care (PC) for persons with PDRD, few studies are available supporting its effectiveness.
Objective
To determine if outpatient PC is associated with improvements in patient-centered outcomes compared with standard care among patients with PDRD and their caregivers.
Design, Setting, and Participants
This randomized clinical trial enrolled participants at 3 academic tertiary care centers between November 1, 2015, and September 30, 2017, and followed them up for 1 year. A total of 584 persons with PDRD were referred to the study. Of those, 351 persons were excluded by phone and 23 were excluded during in-person screenings. Patients were eligible to participate if they had PDRD and moderate to high PC needs. Patients were excluded if they had urgent PC needs, another diagnosis meriting PC, were already receiving PC, or were unable or unwilling to follow the study protocol. Enrolled participants were assigned to receive standard care plus outpatient integrated PC or standard care alone. Data were analyzed between November 1, 2018, and December 9, 2019.
Interventions
Outpatient integrated PC administered by a neurologist, social worker, chaplain, and nurse using PC checklists, with guidance and selective involvement from a palliative medicine specialist. Standard care was provided by a neurologist and a primary care practitioner.
Main Outcomes and Measures
The primary outcomes were the differences in patient quality of life (QoL; measured by the Quality of Life in Alzheimer Disease scale) and caregiver burden (measured by the Zarit Burden Interview) between the PC intervention and standard care groups at 6 months.
Results
A total of 210 patients with PDRD (135 men [64.3%]; mean [SD] age, 70.1 [8.2] years) and 175 caregivers (128 women [73.1%]; mean [SD] age, 66.1 [11.1] years) were enrolled in the study; 193 participants (91.9%) were white and non-Hispanic. Compared with participants receiving standard care alone at 6 months, participants receiving the PC intervention had better QoL (mean [SD], 0.66 [5.5] improvement vs 0.84 [4.2] worsening; treatment effect estimate, 1.87; 95% CI, 0.47-3.27; P = .009). No significant difference was observed in caregiver burden (mean [SD], 2.3 [5.0] improvement vs 1.2 [5.6] improvement in the standard care group; treatment effect estimate, -1.62; 95% CI, -3.32 to 0.09; P = .06). Other significant differences favoring the PC intervention included nonmotor symptom burden, motor symptom severity, completion of advance directives, caregiver anxiety, and caregiver burden at 12 months. No outcomes favored standard care alone. Secondary analyses suggested that benefits were greater for persons with higher PC needs.
Conclusions and Relevance
Outpatient PC is associated with benefits among patients with PDRD compared with standard care alone. This study supports efforts to integrate PC into PDRD care. The lack of diversity and implementation of PC at experienced centers suggests a need for implementation research in other populations and care settings.

1949,31765004,Medication Use Quality and Safety in Older Adults: 2018 Update.,"Improving the quality of medication use and medication safety is an important priority for prescribers who care for older adults. The objective of this article was to identify key articles from 2018 that address these issues. In addition, we selected four of these articles to annotate, critique, and discuss their broader implications for clinical practice. The first study highlights a cluster-randomized trial that utilized a pharmacist-led education-based intervention delivered to both patients and physicians to deprescribe four types of inappropriate medications (sedative-hypnotics, first-generation antihistamines, selective nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, and glyburide). The second study, a nested case-control study using data from within the UK Clinical Practice Research Datalink, examined the association between anticholinergic exposure, overall and by anticholinergic medication class, and dementia risk in 40 770 older adults. The third study, a longitudinal cohort study of 1028 Swedish older adults, examined the association between antihypertensive medications and incident dementia. The last study was a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial that investigated the effect of daily low-dose aspirin (100 mg) for primary prevention on cardiovascular events and major hemorrhage in 19 144 community-dwelling older adults. Collectively, this current article provides insight into the pertinent topics of medication use quality and safety in older adults and helps raise awareness about optimal prescribing in older adults.

1950,32039955,No Difference in 5-year Clinical or Radiographic Outcomes Between Kinematic and Mechanical Alignment in TKA: A Randomized Controlled Trial.,"BACKGROUND
In kinematic alignment in TKA, the aim is to match the implant's position to the pre-arthritic anatomy of an individual patient, in contrast to the traditional goal of neutral mechanical alignment. However, there are limited mid-term, comparative data for survivorship and functional outcomes for these two techniques.
QUESTIONS/PURPOSES
In the setting of a randomized, controlled trial at 5 years, is there a difference between kinematic alignment and mechanical alignment in TKA in terms of (1) patient-reported outcome measures, (2) survivorship free from revision or reoperation, and (3) the incidence of radiographic aseptic loosening?
METHODS
In the initial study, 99 primary TKAs for osteoarthritis were randomized to either the mechanical alignment (n = 50) or kinematic alignment (n = 49) group. Computer navigation was used in the mechanical alignment group, and patient-specific cutting blocks were used in the kinematic alignment group. At 5 years, 95% (48 of 50) of mechanical alignment and 96% (47 of 49) of kinematic alignment TKAs were available for follow-up. Knee function was assessed using the Knee Society Score (KSS), VAS, Oxford Knee Score (OKS), WOMAC, Forgotten Joint Score (FJS) and EuroQol 5D. Survivorship free from reoperation (any reason) and revision (change or addition of any component) was determined via Kaplan-Meier analysis. Radiographs were assessed for signs of aseptic loosening (as defined by the presence of progressive radiolucent lines in two or more zones) by a single blinded observer.
RESULTS
At 5 years, there were no differences in any patient-reported outcome measure between the two groups. For example, the mean OKS did not differ between the two groups (kinematic alignment: 41.4 ± 7.2 versus mechanical alignment: 41.7 ± 6.3; difference -0.3 [95% confidence interval - 3.2 to 2.5]; p = 0.99). At 5 years, survivorship free from reoperation was 92.2 (95% CI 80.4 to 97.0) for mechanical alignment and 89.7 (95% CI 77.0 to 95.6) for kinematic alignment (log rank test; p = 0.674), survivorship free from revision was 94.1 (95% CI 82.9 to 98.1) for mechanical alignment and 95.9 (95% CI 84.5 to 99.0) for kinematic alignment (log rank test; p = 0.681). At 5 years, one patient demonstrated radiographic aseptic loosening for the mechanical alignment group; no cases were identified for the kinematic alignment group.
CONCLUSIONS
We found no mid-term functional or radiographic differences between TKAs with mechanical alignment or kinematic alignment. The anticipated improvements in patient-reported outcomes with kinematic alignment were not realized. Because kinematic alignment results in a high proportion of patients whose tibial components are inserted in varus, loosening remains a potential long-term concern. Given the unknown impact on long-term survivorship of the substantial alignment alterations with kinematic alignment, our findings do not support the routine use of kinematic alignment outside of a research setting.

""Cladribine tablets 10 mg"" refers to a total cumulative dose of cladribine given over 2 years (henceforth referred to as cladribine tablets 3.5 mg/kg); it is a relatively new treatment option that is hypothesised to act as an IRT acting preferentially on the adaptive immune system. A randomised, 2-year, placebo-controlled trial (CLARITY) showed that treatment with cladribine tablets reduced indices of disease activity (relapses, lesions on magnetic resonance images, disability progression) and that this effect outlasted the pharmacologic effect of the treatment on the immune system (mainly a reduction in circulating B and T cells, with little effect on components of the innate immune system such as monocytes). CLARITY Extension, a 2-year extension to this trial, demonstrated durable efficacy, also in patients who received the standard 2-year course of cladribine tablets 3.5 mg/kg and were re-randomised to placebo for a further 2 years. Relative risk reductions for relapse rate with cladribine tablets 3.5 mg/kg were similar for patients with or without prior high disease activity.

1952,31848231,Relapse recovery: The forgotten variable in multiple sclerosis clinical trials.,"OBJECTIVE
To determine whether basing the decision to initiate immediate vs delayed disease-modifying therapy (DMT) on extent of recovery after initial relapse affects long-term disability accumulation in a multiple sclerosis (MS) evidence-based setting.
METHODS
We analyzed the double-blind, placebo-controlled interferon beta-1a 30 mc once a week in clinically isolated syndrome and 10-year-follow-up extension trial. Good recovery after presenting relapse was defined as (1) full early recovery within 28 days of symptom onset (Expanded Disability Status Scale [EDSS] score of 0 at enrollment maintained ≥6 months) and (2) delayed good recovery (EDSS score > 0 at enrollment and improvement from peak deficit to 6th-month or 1-year visit ≥ median). Time from recovery assignment to future disability (EDSS score ≥ 2.5 or ≥4.0) was studied on a relapse-recovery-stratified age axis and immediate vs 3-year delayed treatment initiation with Kaplan-Meier statistics and hazard ratios (HRs).
RESULTS
One hundred seventy-five/328 patients had good recovery (94 immediate and 81 delayed treatment); 153 did not have good recovery (77 immediate and 76 delayed treatment). HRs for EDSS score ≥2.5 outcome were: delayed treatment without good recovery as reference (HR = 1.0), delayed treatment with good recovery (HR 6th-month : 0.67, p = 0.207; HR 1st-year : 0.40, p = 0.027), immediate treatment without good recovery (HR 6th-month : 0.56, p = 0.061; HR 1st-year : 0.40, p = 0.011), and immediate treatment with good recovery (HR 6th-month : 0.43, p = 0.014; HR 1st-year : 0.48, p = 0.034). Placebo patients were switched to long-term treatment after 3 years, and insufficient EDSS score ≥4.0 outcome events were available to study.
CONCLUSIONS
In patients with MS presenting without good recovery after the initial relapse, immediate DMT initiation favorably influences the likelihood of more ambulatory-benign disease akin to patients with good recovery after the initial relapse.
CLASSIFICATION OF EVIDENCE

1953,31186180,Is intraoperative fluoroscopy necessary in anterior cruciate ligament double-bundle reconstruction? A prospective randomized controlled trial.,"INTRODUCTION
Properly placed tibial and femoral tunnels in anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction are important because tunnel misplacement can cause abnormal changes in graft tension patterns, resulting in postoperative knee laxity. To overcome the inaccuracy of tunnel position in ACL reconstruction, intraoperative fluoroscopy has been proven to be a useful method in previous studies focusing on the tunnel position in single-bundle reconstruction, but few studies are available on the efficacy and necessity of intraoperative fluoroscopy for double-bundle (DB) reconstruction. The purpose of this prospective randomized case-control study was to evaluate the effect of intraoperative fluoroscopy on femoral and tibial tunnel position in anatomic DB ACL reconstruction using a postoperative tunnel position in a three-dimensional computed tomography (3D-CT).
HYPOTHESIS
Intraoperative fluoroscopy during ACL DB reconstruction could make an appropriate tunnel position closer to the anatomical center compared to conventional fluoroscopy-free procedure.
MATERIAL AND METHODS
Sixty patients undergoing ACL DB reconstruction (30 fluoroscopy-free reconstruction group and 30 in fluoroscopy-assisted reconstruction group) were included in this prospective study, and randomly allocated into two groups. Mean values of the percentage distance of femoral and tibial tunnel center in a 3D-CT were compared between the two groups. Knee laxity (the anterior translation and pivot-shift grade) and clinical outcomes were also compared at the last follow-up.
RESULTS
There was a significant difference only in femoral anteromedial (AM) bundle tunnel position, but not in femoral posterolateral (PL) bundle, tibial AM, or PL bundle tunnel position between the two groups. Femoral AM bundle tunnel in the fluoroscopy-assisted reconstruction group showed significantly (p=0.005) deeper position compared to that in the fluoroscopy-free reconstruction group. There was no significant difference in anterior translation, pivot-shift grade, or clinical outcomes between the two groups.
DISCUSSION
Fluoroscopy-assisted ACL DB reconstruction can make deeper placement of the femoral AM bundle than the conventional ACL DB reconstruction.

The main aim of this randomized clinical trial was to determine 3 dimensional skeletal and dental changes six months after the use of bone-anchored versus tooth-anchored rapid maxillary expanders in adolescents. The secondary aim was to determine the symmetrical or asymmetrical expansion pattern between both appliances.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
Fifty adolescents with skeletally constricted maxilla (mean age 13-14 years) were randomly assigned into: Dresden B-RME, Hyrax T-RME, or untreated control groups. CBCT scans were taken at initial and expander removal (6 months). Three-dimensional references and treatment landmarks were identified. Orthogonal distances were calculated from those landmarks. The main outcome was to compare skeletal and dental changes in each group and the secondary outcome was to verify if these changes were symmetric or not. Data was analysed using descriptive statistics and repeated measure MANCOVA and MANOVA.
RESULTS
Both treatment groups showed significant skeletal and dental expansion compared to controls. T-RME group had greater mean inter-molar crown expansion (5.66mm) than the B-RME group (4.17mm). Both T-RME and B-RME groups showed significant skeletal maxillary expansion compared to controls (mean 1.27mm and 1.31mm respectively, both p<0.01), although no significant difference was found between both appliances. B-RME group showed a lower ratio of dental to skeletal expansion than T-RME group. T-RME showed a symmetrical expansion pattern, whereas the B-RME showed an asymmetrical pattern relative to mid-sagittal plane. The extent of molar crown expansion was 1.84mm greater on the TAD-side compared to the Implant-side. T-RME group showed significant anterior movement of the maxillary first premolar and molar (1.5mm, p<0.05), and vertical dental extrusion (1.8mm). No significant dental vertical or anterior-posterior changes were noted in the B-RME group.
CONCLUSIONS

To evaluate the dolutegravir+lamivudine combination in virologically suppressed patients living with HIV.
METHODS
The ANRS 167 LAMIDOL trial was an open-label, single arm, multicentre trial assessing once-daily dolutegravir (50 mg)+lamivudine (300 mg) in virologically suppressed HIV-1 patients on first-line triple-drug regimens. The main criteria for inclusion in the trial were plasma viral load (pVL) ≤50 copies/mL for ≥2 years, CD4 nadir >200 cells/mm3 and WT HIV prior to treatment initiation. From week -8 (W-8) to day 0 (D0) (Phase 1), the current third agent was switched to dolutegravir. From D0 to W48 (Phase 2), patients received once-daily dolutegravir+lamivudine, except if intolerant or if pVL >50 copies/mL during Phase 1. Virological failure was defined as pVL >50 copies/mL in two consecutive samples. The study was designed to show that the strategy had an efficacy of ≥80%, assuming a 90% success rate with a type I error of 5% and a power of 90%.
RESULTS
In total, 104 of 110 patients enrolled in Phase 1 were included in Phase 2. These 104 patients were 86% male, 72% MSM and 87% CDC stage A. Their characteristics were (median): age 45 years, CD4 nadir 339 cells/mm3, baseline CD4 743 cells/mm3 and duration of viral suppression 4.5 years. The overall success rate at W48 was 97% (95% CI: 94%-100%), meeting the design expectation/assumption. Three therapeutic failures occurred: one virological failure at W4, one lost to follow-up at W32 and one interruption of therapeutic strategy at W40 after a blip (pVL 59 copies/mL but control pVL <50 copies/mL). Three viral blips occurred in two additional patients. Neither M184V nor integrase resistance mutations were detected after failure or blips.

1957,32039078,Remineralization Potential of Theobromine on Artificial Carious Lesions.,"Background and Aims
This study aimed to investigate the remineralization potential of two concentrations of theobromine (100 mg/L and 200 mmg/L) with fluoridated dentifrice, NovaMin, and nanohydroxyapatite using DIAGNOdent, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) analysis.
Materials and Methods
Two sections were taken from 50 teeth each. Artificial carious lesions were induced using demineralizing solution. Evaluation using DIAGNOdent, SEM, and EDX analysis for elemental evaluation of Ca/P ratio and fluoride ion was carried out. Teeth sections were then randomly assigned to five different groups: (1) fluoridated dentifrice (Colgate™, Colgate -Palmolive, India), Novamine- Shy NM™, Group pharamaceuticals, India), 3. Nano-hydroxyapatite- Remin Pro™, Voco, Germany) 4. 100mg and 5. 200mg of Theobromine toothpaste (Theodent classic™, Rennou, UK-853069003006). Remineralization was carried out for 14 days with two applications per day. Samples were reanalyzed using DIAGNOdent, SEM, and EDX.
Results
A Tukey post-hoc test revealed statistically significant difference between NovaMin and all the other toothpastes ( P < 0.001) for DIAGNOdent readings. On performing SEM-EDX analysis, it was seen that all agents had remineralization potential; however, no significant difference was found.
Conclusion
Theobromine can be used as an effective novel remineralizing agent alternative to the already-available agents.",2019,"Results

1958,32032096,"Preoperative Cognitive Abnormality, Intraoperative Electroencephalogram Suppression, and Postoperative Delirium: A Mediation Analysis.","BACKGROUND
Postoperative delirium is a common complication that hinders recovery after surgery. Intraoperative electroencephalogram suppression has been linked to postoperative delirium, but it is unknown if this relationship is causal or if electroencephalogram suppression is merely a marker of underlying cognitive abnormalities. The hypothesis of this study was that intraoperative electroencephalogram suppression mediates a nonzero portion of the effect between preoperative abnormal cognition and postoperative delirium.
METHODS
This is a prespecified secondary analysis of the Electroencephalography Guidance of Anesthesia to Alleviate Geriatric Syndromes (ENGAGES) randomized trial, which enrolled patients age 60 yr or older undergoing surgery with general anesthesia at a single academic medical center between January 2015 and May 2018. Patients were randomized to electroencephalogram-guided anesthesia or usual care. Preoperative abnormal cognition was defined as a composite of previous delirium, Short Blessed Test cognitive score greater than 4 points, or Eight Item Interview to Differentiate Aging and Dementia score greater than 1 point. Duration of intraoperative electroencephalogram suppression was defined as number of minutes with suppression ratio greater than 1%. Postoperative delirium was detected via Confusion Assessment Method or chart review on postoperative days 1 to 5.
RESULTS
Among 1,113 patients, 430 patients showed evidence of preoperative abnormal cognition. These patients had an increased incidence of postoperative delirium (151 of 430 [35%] vs.123 of 683 [18%], P < 0.001). Of this 17.2% total effect size (99.5% CI, 9.3 to 25.1%), an absolute 2.4% (99.5% CI, 0.6 to 4.8%) was an indirect effect mediated by electroencephalogram suppression, while an absolute 14.8% (99.5% CI, 7.2 to 22.5%) was a direct effect of preoperative abnormal cognition. Randomization to electroencephalogram-guided anesthesia did not change the mediated effect size (P = 0.078 for moderation).
CONCLUSIONS
A small portion of the total effect of preoperative abnormal cognition on postoperative delirium was mediated by electroencephalogram suppression. Study precision was too low to determine if the intervention changed the mediated effect.",2020,"These patients had an increased incidence of postoperative delirium (151 of 430 [35%] vs.123 of 683 [18%], P < 0.001).","['1,113 patients, 430 patients', 'patients with preexisting cognitive impairment', 'enrolled patients age 60 yr or older undergoing surgery with general anesthesia at a single academic medical center between January 2015 and May 2018']","['Intraoperative electroencephalogram suppression', 'Electroencephalography Guidance of Anesthesia', 'electroencephalogram-guided anesthesia or usual care', 'intraoperative electroencephalogram suppression']","['Postoperative delirium', 'Duration of intraoperative electroencephalogram suppression', 'incidence of postoperative delirium', 'Preoperative abnormal cognition', 'preoperative abnormal cognition', 'postoperative delirium', 'Preoperative Cognitive Abnormality, Intraoperative Electroencephalogram Suppression, and Postoperative Delirium']","[{'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C0338656', 'cui_str': 'Cognitive Dysfunction'}, {'cui': 'C0001792', 'cui_str': 'Elderly'}, {'cui': 'C0677546', 'cui_str': 'Old episode (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C1274039', 'cui_str': 'Surgery'}, {'cui': 'C0002915', 'cui_str': 'General Anesthesia'}, {'cui': 'C0205171', 'cui_str': 'Singular (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0000872', 'cui_str': 'University Medical Centers'}]","[{'cui': 'C0456904', 'cui_str': 'Intraoperative (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C1527380', 'cui_str': 'Electroencephalogram'}, {'cui': 'C0221103', 'cui_str': 'Binocular vision suppression (disorder)'}, {'cui': 'C0013819', 'cui_str': 'EEG'}, {'cui': 'C0002903', 'cui_str': 'Anesthesia'}, {'cui': 'C0302614', 'cui_str': 'Guide - clinical instrument'}]","[{'cui': 'C1319200', 'cui_str': 'Postoperative confusion'}, {'cui': 'C2926735', 'cui_str': 'Duration'}, {'cui': 'C0456904', 'cui_str': 'Intraoperative (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C1527380', 'cui_str': 'Electroencephalogram'}, {'cui': 'C0221103', 'cui_str': 'Binocular vision suppression (disorder)'}, {'cui': 'C0220856', 'cui_str': 'incidence'}, {'cui': 'C0445204', 'cui_str': 'Preoperative (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0205161', 'cui_str': 'Abnormal (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0009240', 'cui_str': 'Cognitive Function'}, {'cui': 'C0000769', 'cui_str': 'anomalies'}]",,0.120379,"These patients had an increased incidence of postoperative delirium (151 of 430 [35%] vs.123 of 683 [18%], P < 0.001).","[{'ForeName': 'Bradley A', 'Initials': 'BA', 'LastName': 'Fritz', 'Affiliation': 'From the Department of Anesthesiology (B.A.F., C.R.K., A.B., A.M.M., T.P.B., J.O., D.P., H.R.M., T.S.W., M.S.A) the Division of Biostatistics (N.L.), Washington University School of Medicine, St. Louis, Missouri the Department of Mathematics and Statistics, Washington University in St. Louis, St. Louis, Missouri (N.L.).

A quasi-experimental pretest-posttest design was employed. Children ranging in age from 4 years 6 months to 6 years and 4 months participated in the study ( n = 53). They were recruited from preschools in Taitung, Taiwan, randomly assigned to the three study groups. 36 children were divided and assigned to the two experimental groups (question and answer teaching group and EF group), while the remaining 17, to the control group. The participating preservice teachers attended 32 h of training which included the theory, practice, and outcome evaluation measure for the teaching strategies implemented. The intervention spanned 2 months. Oral language tests (curriculum-based receptive vocabulary, inferential comprehension, and oral comprehension) were administered before and after the intervention. The findings revealed that both experimental groups positively impacted participants' receptive vocabulary and oral comprehension when compared with the control group, although the performances between the two experimental groups did not differ significantly.

1960,32037583,Effectiveness of virtual patients in teaching clinical decision-making skills to dental students.,"OBJECTIVES
The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of virtual patient-based training on the clinical decision-making ability of dental students.
METHODS
This quasi-experimental study with pretest and posttest design was conducted on 76 (2015 admitted) dental students of Shiraz Dental School in 2018-2019. The study samples were randomly divided into 2 groups: intervention (web-based virtual patient training = 36) and control (face-to-face case-based training, n = 40). The data collection tools in this study included a questionnaire consisting of 2 sections: demographic information and procedural knowledge. The key-feature test was used to measure procedural knowledge and problem-solving ability in students. Content validity was confirmed by 7 faculty members. Statistical analysis was carried out using SPSS Statistics version 23.0. Descriptive statistics were used to describe the samples, Independent-t test was used to compare the scores between the 2 groups, and repeated measures ANOVA was used to assess the effect of time on the training provided. P < 0.05 was considered as the acceptable significance level.
RESULTS
The mean clinical-decision-making score in the intervention group (11.3 ± 88.88) was more than the control group (8.2 ± 45.54) in Posttest 1 (1 week after intervention), and the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.001). Besides, the scores in the control group (8.2 ± 45.54) rose more significantly than the intervention group (11.3 ± 0.86) in Posttest 2 (1 month after intervention) (P < 0.001).

1961,32030454,Can lavender oil inhalation help to overcome dental anxiety and pain in children? A randomized clinical trial.,"Aromatherapy with essential oils can be used to relieve children. The aim of this study was to evaluate the correlations between psychological and physiologic findings after lavender oil inhalation among children assigned to undergo tooth extraction. A total of 126 children aged between 6 and 12 years were enrolled in the study. The groups were randomly divided into control and lavender groups. The lavender group inhaled 100% lavender oil for 3 min before the interventions, the control group received no prior application. Psychological assessments were made using face image scale (FIS), Face, Legs, Activity, Cry, Consolability (FLACC) and Wong-Baker pain rating scale (WBS). Physiologic changes were assessed using vital signs evaluations. All parameters were noted prior to applications, after inhalation, anesthesia injection, and tooth extraction. The lavender group showed significant lower anxiety and pain scores after tooth extraction (p < 0.05). Significantly lower levels of blood pressures and a significant pulse rate drop were found after inhalation in the lavender group. A statistically significant increase in heart rate was observed after anesthesia injection and tooth extraction in the control group (p < 0.05).Conclusion: Lavender oil can be preferred as a treatment of choice in routine pediatric dentistry.Trial registration number: NCT04115891 (Lavender Oil Inhalation Help to Overcome Dental Anxiety Among Children)What is Known:• Dental anxiety is the most common factor that causes children to have difficulty with the dentist and their parents during treatment.• Aromatherapy with essential oils can be used to relieve children.What is New:• Aromatherapy with lavender oil relieves the child by reducing the level of anxiety and facilitates dental treatment.• During surgical procedures such as local anesthesia and tooth extraction, lavender oil inhalation decreases pain levels of children.",2020,A statistically significant increase in heart rate was observed after anesthesia injection and tooth extraction in the control group (p < 0.05).Conclusion: Lavender oil can be preferred as a treatment of choice in routine pediatric dentistry.,"['children', '126 children aged between 6 and 12\xa0years were enrolled in the study', 'children assigned to undergo tooth extraction']","['lavender group inhaled 100% lavender oil', 'Children)What', 'lavender oil inhalation', 'Aromatherapy with essential oils', 'Aromatherapy with lavender oil']","['Dental Anxiety', 'heart rate', 'dental anxiety and pain', 'level of anxiety and facilitates dental treatment.•', 'blood pressures', 'anxiety and pain scores', 'face image scale (FIS), Face, Legs, Activity, Cry, Consolability (FLACC) and Wong-Baker pain rating scale (WBS', 'pain levels']","[{'cui': 'C0008059', 'cui_str': 'Child'}, {'cui': 'C0001792', 'cui_str': 'Elderly'}, {'cui': 'C0439234', 'cui_str': 'year (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0557651', 'cui_str': 'Study (environment)'}, {'cui': 'C1516050', 'cui_str': 'Assigned (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0040440', 'cui_str': 'Tooth Extraction'}]","[{'cui': 'C0524903', 'cui_str': 'Lavender'}, {'cui': 'C0439745', 'cui_str': 'Grouped (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0004048', 'cui_str': 'Inhalation'}, {'cui': 'C1704407', 'cui_str': '100 (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0064694', 'cui_str': 'lavender oil'}, {'cui': 'C1705211', 'cui_str': 'Inhalation - unit of product usage'}, {'cui': 'C0376547', 'cui_str': 'Therapy, Aroma'}, {'cui': 'C0028910', 'cui_str': 'Oils, Essential'}]","[{'cui': 'C0085380', 'cui_str': 'Fear, Dental'}, {'cui': 'C0018810', 'cui_str': 'Cardiac rate'}, {'cui': 'C0030193', 'cui_str': 'Pain'}, {'cui': 'C0564474', 'cui_str': 'Level of anxiety (observable entity)'}, {'cui': 'C4522313', 'cui_str': 'Dental (intended site)'}, {'cui': 'C0005823', 'cui_str': 'Blood Pressure'}, {'cui': 'C0003467', 'cui_str': 'Anxiety'}, {'cui': 'C0582148', 'cui_str': 'Pain score (observable entity)'}, {'cui': 'C0538263', 'cui_str': 'fatty acid 2-chloroethyl ester synthase'}, {'cui': 'C3542466', 'cui_str': 'Image (foundation metadata concept)'}, {'cui': 'C0222045'}, {'cui': 'C0023216', 'cui_str': 'Membrum inferius'}, {'cui': 'C0441655', 'cui_str': 'Activity (observable entity)'}, {'cui': 'C0010399', 'cui_str': 'Cryings'}, {'cui': 'C0238749', 'cui_str': 'Baker, general (occupation)'}, {'cui': 'C0518087', 'cui_str': 'Pain level'}]",126.0,0.0213516,A statistically significant increase in heart rate was observed after anesthesia injection and tooth extraction in the control group (p < 0.05).Conclusion: Lavender oil can be preferred as a treatment of choice in routine pediatric dentistry.,"[{'ForeName': 'Ipek', 'Initials': 'I', 'LastName': 'Arslan', 'Affiliation': 'Faculty of Dentistry, Department of Pediatric Dentistry, Recep Tayyip Erdoğan University, Rize, Turkey. sareipekarslan@gmail.com.'}, {'ForeName': 'Sema', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Aydinoglu', 'Affiliation': 'Faculty of Dentistry, Department of Pediatric Dentistry, Recep Tayyip Erdoğan University, Rize, Turkey.'}, {'ForeName': 'Nazife Begüm', 'Initials': 'NB', 'LastName': 'Karan', 'Affiliation': 'Faculty of Dentistry, Department of Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery, Recep Tayyip Erdoğan University, Rize, Turkey.'}]",European journal of pediatrics,['10.1007/s00431-020-03595-7']
1962,31971325,Mindfetalness to increase women's awareness of fetal movements and pregnancy outcomes: a cluster-randomised controlled trial including 39 865 women.,"OBJECTIVE
To examine whether a method for raising women's awareness of fetal movements, Mindfetalness, can affect pregnancy outcomes.
DESIGN
Cluster-randomised controlled trial.
SETTING
Sixty-seven maternity clinics in Stockholm, Sweden.
POPULATION
Women with singleton pregnancy with birth from 32 weeks' gestation.
METHODS
Women registered at a clinic randomised to Mindfetalness were assigned to receive a leaflet about Mindfetalness (n = 19 639) in comparison with routine care (n = 20 226). Data were collected from a population-based register.
MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES
Apgar score <7 at 5 minutes after birth, visit to healthcare due to decrease in fetal movements. Other outcomes: Apgar score <4 at 5 minutes after birth, small-for-gestational-age and mode of delivery.
RESULTS
No difference (1.1 versus 1.1%, relative risk [RR] 1.0; 95% CI 0.8-1.2) was found between the Mindfetalness group and the Routine care group for a 5-minute Apgar score <7. Women in the Mindfetalness group contacted healthcare more often due to decreased fetal movements (6.6 versus 3.8%, RR 1.72; 95% CI 1.57-1.87). Mindfetalness was associated with a reduction of babies born small-for-gestational-age (RR 0.95, 95% CI 0.90-1.00), babies born after gestational week 41 +6 (RR 0.91, 95% CI 0.83-0.98) and caesarean sections (19.0 versus 20.0%, RR 0.95; 95% CI 0.91-0.99).
CONCLUSIONS
Mindfetalness did not reduce the number of babies born with an Apgar score <7. However, Mindfetalness was associated with the health benefits of decreased incidence of caesarean section and fewer children born small-for-gestational-age.
TWEETABLE ABSTRACT
Introducing Mindfetalness in maternity care decreased caesarean sections but had no effect on the occurrence of Apgar scores <7.",2020,"Mindfetalness was associated with a reduction of babies born small for gestational age (RR 0.95, 95% CI 0.90-1.00), babies born after gestational week 41+6 (RR 0.91, 95% CI 0.83-0.98) and caesarean sections (19.0% versus 20.0%, RR 0.95; 95% CI 0.91-0.99).

1963,30822629,"""I have the right to feel safe"": Evaluation of a school-based child sexual abuse prevention program in Ecuador.","BACKGROUND
Child sexual abuse (CSA) is a complex public health problem that has lifelong implications for children's wellbeing. Interventions may provide children strategies to protect themselves against CSA, but few have been studied in Latin America.
OBJECTIVE
Evaluate the immediate and medium-term impact of a 10-week educational program on children's knowledge of CSA self-protection strategies in Ecuador.
PARTICIPANTS AND SETTINGS
Children aged 7-12 years from six public elementary schools in Ecuador were cluster-randomized to either receive the intervention between October and November 2016 (Group 1, k = 4) or between March and April 2017 (Group 2, k = 2).
METHODS
To assess CSA knowledge, a random sample of students completed a questionnaire at three time points: 1) initial: before any group received the intervention, 2) intermediate: immediately after Group 1 completed the program but before Group 2 started it, and 3) final: after Group 2 completed the program. We evaluated changes in scores using mixed linear regression models with school as a clustering variable and adjusted degrees of freedom (df = 4).
RESULTS
Pre-post effect estimates at program completion adjusted for age, sex and clustering by school were 6.5% (95% CI: 2.9, 10.0) and 6.8% (95% CI 3.0, 10.7) for Groups 1 and 2, respectively. Scores did not change among children who had not yet received the intervention at intermediate evaluation (0.94%, 95%CI: -6.0, 7.9). Children in Group 1 maintained the scores six months after the program ended.

1964,31930364,Safety and Efficacy of RimabotulinumtoxinB for Treatment of Sialorrhea in Adults: A Randomized Clinical Trial.,"Importance
RimabotulinumtoxinB (RIMA) may be preferable as an anti-sialorrhea treatment compared with current oral anticholinergic drugs in people with neurological disorders.
Objective
To assess the safety, efficacy, and tolerability of RIMA injections for the treatment of sialorrhea in adults.
Design, Setting, and Participants
This randomized, parallel, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial of RIMA 2500 U and 3500 U was conducted from November 14, 2013, to January 23, 2017. A total of 249 adult patients with troublesome sialorrhea secondary to any disorder or cause were screened. Of them, 13 refused further participation in the study or were lost to follow-up and 49 did not fulfill the criteria for participation; 187 were ultimately enrolled. Patients had to have a minimum unstimulated salivary flow rate (USFR) of 0.2 g/min and a minimum Drooling Frequency and Severity Scale score of 4.
Exposures
Patients were randomized 1:1:1 to RIMA, 2500 U (n = 63); RIMA, 3500 U (n = 64); or placebo (n = 60).
Main Outcomes and Measures
Primary outcomes were the change in USFR from baseline to week 4 and the Clinical Global Impression of Change (CGI-C) at week 4. The CGI-C scores were recorded on a 7-point scale ranging from very much improved to very much worse. Adverse events were recorded throughout the trial period.
Results
Of 187 patients enrolled (147 men [78.6%]; mean [SD] age, 63.9 [13.3] years), 122 patients had Parkinson disease (65.2%), 13 (7.0%) were stroke survivors, 12 had amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (6.4%), 6 had medication-induced sialorrhea (3.2%), 4 had adult cerebral palsy (2.1%), and 30 had sialorrhea owing to other causes (16.0%). A total of 176 completed the study. Treatment with both doses of RIMA significantly reduced USFR at week 4 vs placebo (mean treatment difference, -0.30 g/min [95% CI, -0.39 to -0.21] for both doses vs placebo, P < .001). The CGI-C scores were statistically significantly improved at week 4 for both treatment groups vs placebo (-1.21 [95% CI, -1.56 to -0.87] for 2500 U, -1.14 [95% CI, -1.49 to -0.80] for 3500 U, both P < .001). Treatment benefits were seen as early as 1 week after injection and were maintained over the treatment cycle of approximately 13 weeks. The RIMA injections were well tolerated compared with placebo. The most common adverse events were self-limited mild to moderate dry mouth, dysphagia, and dental caries.
Conclusions and Relevance
Treatment with RIMA (2500 U and 3500 U) in adults was well tolerated and reduced sialorrhea, with the onset of the effect at 1 week after the injection. These data support the clinical use of RIMA in the management of sialorrhea in adults.

1965,32034849,STRAWB2 (Stress and Wellbeing After Childbirth): a randomised controlled trial of targeted self-help materials to prevent post-traumatic stress disorder following childbirth.,"OBJECTIVES
To test whether providing psychological self-help materials would significantly lower the incidence of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) at 6-12 weeks postnatally.
DESIGN
Open-label randomised controlled trial, with blinded outcome assessment.
SETTING
Community midwifery services in two National Health Service (NHS) trusts in the North West.
SAMPLE
A cohort of 2419 women receiving normal NHS postnatal care.
METHODS
Midwives screened women for traumatic birth experience; 678 women who screened positively (28.1%) were randomly allocated to self-help with usual care (n = 336) or to usual care alone (n = 342). The self-help materials were a leaflet and online film designed to prevent the development of PTSD after trauma exposure through explaining how to manage early psychological responses.
MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE
The primary outcome was a composite of diagnostic and subdiagnostic PTSD at 6-12 weeks postnatally using the gold-standard Clinician-Administered PTSD Scale (CAPS-5) interview.
RESULTS
Of the 678 women correctly randomised plus the nine women randomised in error, 478 (70.5%) were followed up. Diagnostic or subdiagnostic PTSD rates at follow-up did not differ between groups who received self-help (26.7%, 65/243) or usual care alone (26.2%, 64/244) (intention-to-treat analysis: RR 1.02, 95% CI 0.68-1.53). Findings remained consistent in the per-protocol analysis (RR 1.04, 95% CI 0.85-1.27). Women viewed the materials very positively. There were no adverse effects. Health economic micro-costing indicated implementation would be very low cost.
CONCLUSIONS
Many women experience a traumatic birth and risk developing PTSD, but self-help strategies without professional support are insufficient and should not be routinely introduced.

1966,32022363,Long-term quality of life and cost-effectiveness of treatment of partial thickness burns: A randomized controlled trial comparing enzyme alginogel vs silver sulfadiazine (FLAM study).,"The clinical effectiveness and scar quality of the randomized controlled trial comparing enzyme alginogel with silver sulfadiazine (SSD) for treatment of partial thickness burns were previously reported. Enzyme alginogel did not lead to faster wound healing (primary outcome) or less scar formation. In the current study, the health-related quality of life (HRQoL), costs, and cost-effectiveness of enzyme alginogel compared with SSD in the treatment of partial thickness burns were studied. HRQoL was evaluated using the Burn Specific Health Scale-Brief (BSHS-B) and the EQ-5D-5L questionnaire 1 week before discharge and at 3, 6, and 12 months postburn. Costs were studied from a societal perspective (health care and nonhealth-care costs) for a follow-up period of 1 year. A cost-effectiveness analysis was performed using cost-effectiveness acceptability curves and comparing differences in societal costs and Quality Adjusted Life Years (QALYs) at 1 year postburn. Forty-one patients were analyzed in the enzyme alginogel group and 48 patients in the SSD group. None of the domains of BSHS-B showed a statistically significant difference between the treatment groups. Also, no statistically significant difference in QALYs was found between enzyme alginogel and SSD (difference -0.03; 95% confidence interval [CI], -0.09 to 0.03; P = .30). From both the health care and the societal perspective, the difference in costs between enzyme alginogel and SSD was not statistically significant: the difference in health-care costs was €3210 (95% CI, €-1247 to €7667; P = .47) and in societal costs was €3377 (95% CI €-6229 to €12 982; P = .49). The nonsignificant differences in costs and quality-adjusted life-years in favor of SSD resulted in a low probability (<25%) that enzyme alginogel is cost-effective compared to SSD. In conclusion, there were no significant differences in quality of life between both treatment groups.

1967,31876012,Long-term efficacy of meaning-centered group psychotherapy for cancer survivors: 2-Year follow-up results of a randomized controlled trial.,"OBJECTIVE
Meaning-centered group psychotherapy for cancer survivors (MCGP-CS) is an effective intervention to improve personal meaning, psychological well-being, and depressive symptoms until 6 months after the intervention. In this study, the long-term effects of MCGP-CS (i.e., at 1- and 2-year follow-up) on meaning, psychological well-being and posttraumatic growth were assessed, in comparison to supportive group psychotherapy (SGP) and care as usual (CAU).
METHODS
Cancer survivors (n = 170) were randomized into MCGP-CS, SGP, or CAU. Assessments were scheduled at baseline, 1 week, 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, and 2 years postintervention. Outcome measures were the Personal Meaning Profile, Ryff's Scales of Psychological Well-Being (SPWB), the Posttraumatic Growth Inventory, and their subscales. Linear mixed models (LMM) were used and results were both reported on an intention-to-treat (ITT) basis, as well as for intervention completers only.
RESULTS
LMM and post hoc analyses with Bonferroni correction revealed that MCGP-CS participants reported more improvement on positive relations (subscale of SPWB) than CAU participants of 2-year postintervention (ITT analysis, Cohen's d = .82). Completers also reported more personal growth (subscale of SPWB) after MCGP-CS than after SGP 1-year postintervention (Cohen's d = .94). No long-term effects were found on the other outcome measures.
CONCLUSIONS
In the 2 years after MCGP-CS, the short-term significant effects on personal meaning and most positive effects related to psychological well-being faded. However, MCGP-CS had a long-term positive effect on positive relations with others and on survivors' sense of personal growth.

1968,31837232,Twenty-four-hour subjective and pharmacological effects of ad-libitum electronic and combustible cigarette use among dual users.,"BACKGROUND AND AIMS
Relative pharmacological effects of e-cigarettes and cigarettes during 24 hours of ad-libitum use have not been described. In this study, 24-hour blood plasma nicotine concentrations and 48-hour subjective effects with use of cigarettes and e-cigarettes were measured among dual users.
DESIGN
Two-arm within-subject cross-over design with preferred e-cigarette or cigarette ad-libitum use over 48 hours.
SETTING
Hospital research ward in San Francisco, California, USA.
PARTICIPANTS
Thirty-six healthy dual users of e-cigarettes and cigarettes (n = 8, 25% females).
MEASUREMENTS
Twenty-four-hour blood plasma nicotine and cotinine concentrations and 48-hour self-reported nicotine withdrawal symptoms and rewarding effects.
FINDINGS
Analyses used analysis of variance (ANOVA)-based mixed models with order of product (e-cigarette or cigarette) and product type (combustible cigarette or type of e-cigarette) as fixed effects, and subject as a repeated effect. During a 24-hour period, e-cigarettes produced lower nicotine exposure than cigarettes for the majority of users, although 25% received more nicotine from e-cigarettes, which was predicted by more frequent e-cigarette use or greater dependence. Compared to cigarette smoking, nicotine exposure for variable-power tank users was similar, while cig-a-like (t (30) = 2.71, P = 0.011, d = 0.745) and fixed-power tank users (t (30) = 3.37, P = 0.002, d = 0.993) were exposed to less nicotine. Cigarettes were rated higher than e-cigarettes on some desirable subjective effects (e.g. psychological reward, t (322) = 7.24 P < 0.001, d = 0.432), but withdrawal symptom reduction was comparable. No differences were found between e-cigarette types, but Bayes factors indicate that these measures were insensitive.
CONCLUSIONS

1970,31543460,Psychosocial mediators of screen time reduction after an intervention for students from schools in vulnerable areas: A cluster-randomized controlled trial.,"OBJECTIVES
To investigate whether psychosocial variables mediate the effect of a multicomponent intervention on screen time reduction among Brazilian students from schools located in vulnerable areas.
DESIGN
A cluster-randomized controlled trial with a 4-month follow-up.
METHODS
This study was conducted with 1085 students (548 in the intervention group and 537 in the control group), aged 11-17years. The intervention strategies focused on training teachers, increasing opportunities for physical activity at school, and reducing screen time, as well as health education. The questionnaire was administered before and after intervention with questions about the amount of time spent on TV and computer/video games on weekdays and weekend days (combined screen time). The potential psychosocial mediators (attitude, self-efficacy, family and school support) were measured through validated scales. Socioeconomic status was used as control variable. Multilevel mediation analyses were conducted using a product-of-coefficients test.
RESULTS
Psychosocial factors were not mediators of the effect of the intervention on screen time. The intervention significantly improved school support for both sexes (boys: 1.307; girls: 0.759; p<0.05) and older students (1.154; p<0.001). Attitude (boys: -0.228; 11-13years: -0.133; 14-17years: -0.152; p<0.05) and self-efficacy scales (boys: -0.040; girls: -0.104; 11-13years: -0.048; 14-17years: -0.100; p<0.05) were associated with reduced screen time.
CONCLUSIONS
The intervention produced a significant improvement of school support for both sexes, as well as older students. Enhancing attitude and self-efficacy may be a useful strategy for reducing screen time among boys and students of any age groups.

1972,32037199,A prospective comparative study to assess the efficacy and tolerability of 2 different doses of intravesical bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG) in patients with non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer.,"BACKGROUND
Bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG) is widely used as an immunotherapeutic agent and recommended in management of non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC). There is no consensus on the optimal dose of the BCG. However, dose reduction has been assessed to decrease the side effects following instillation of BCG. This study compared the efficacy and safety of 80 and 120 mg doses of Sii Onco BCG (Moscow I, Russian strain) in patients with NMIBC.
METHODS
Patients with histologically confirmed, completely resected solitary or multiple Ta or T1 (with or without carcinoma in situ), grade 1 to 3 urothelial carcinoma of the bladder were included. After transurethral resection of the tumor, repeated intravesical instillations with Sii Onco BCG (80 or 120 mg) were administered, following the induction and 3 weekly maintenance schedule (at 3, 6, 9, 15, 21, 27, and 33 months). Recurrence and progression of the tumor were monitored at scheduled time intervals using cystoscopy.
RESULTS
A total of 104 eligible patients were enrolled to receive 80 mg (n = 51) dose or 120 mg dose (n = 53) of Sii Onco BCG. On completion of 3 years follow-up, recurrence-free survival rate of 84.31% and 86.79% and progression-free survival rate of 84.31% and 94.34% were observed for 80 and 120 mg groups, respectively; difference being statistically nonsignificant.

1973,32037209,Effects of cold chemical (glutaraldehyde) versus autoclaving sterilization on the rate of coating loss of aesthetic archwires: A double-blind randomized clinical trial.,"OBJECTIVE
The effect of any sterilization methods (cold chemical, or hot) on film removal from coated archwires has not yet been investigated. Thus, we assessed it.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
This double-blind randomized clinical trial was performed on 120 observations: 40 macroscopically intact coated archwires from 4 brands were purchased (n=10 archwires/brand). Five wires from each brand underwent cold and 5 underwent hot sterilization. Wires were applied in 40 non-extractions patients at alignment phase of treatment (one month). Afterwards, 3 inter-bracket segments from each wire were examined microscopically, and the percentage of coating loss was recorded for each segment. Coating losses of the 4 brands and 2 sterilization methods were compared using a two-way ANOVA and a Welch t-test (α=0.05). Surfaces were also evaluated using scanning electron microscopy.
RESULTS
The mean surface coating loss of hot (autoclave) and cold (glutaraldehyde) sterilization methods was 25.6±28.7 and 28.1±30.8 percent respectively. The mean surface coating removal of the Ortho Organizers, American Orthodontics, SIA, and Gestenco brands were 24.1±28.4, 36.7±36.0, 23.0±24.4, and 23.6±28.0 percent, respectively. The two-way ANOVA indicated a lack of overall significant differences among wire brands (P=0.189) and between sterilization types (P=0.629). However, the interaction of sterilization and brands was significant (P=0.005).
CONCLUSIONS
Within the limitations of this 1-month clinical trial limited to 4 coated NiTi archwire brands only, the average coating removal of examined brands might not differ much, amounting to about 26% within a month. Glutaraldehyde and autoclave sterilization might not affect the average speed of coating loss in all brands, although each sterilization method might be favourable for certain brands.",2020,The mean surface coating loss of hot (autoclave) and cold (glutaraldehyde) sterilization methods was 25.6±28.7 and 28.1±30.8 percent respectively.,['120 observations: 40 macroscopically intact coated archwires from 4 brands were purchased (n=10 archwires/brand'],"['sterilization methods (cold chemical, or hot', 'Glutaraldehyde and autoclave sterilization', 'cold chemical (glutaraldehyde) versus autoclaving sterilization']","['average speed of coating loss', 'mean surface coating loss of hot (autoclave) and cold (glutaraldehyde) sterilization methods', 'percentage of coating loss', 'rate of coating loss of aesthetic archwires', 'mean surface coating removal', 'Coating losses']","[{'cui': 'C4319550', 'cui_str': '120 (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0302523', 'cui_str': 'Observation'}, {'cui': 'C0205266', 'cui_str': 'Intact (qualifier value)'}]","[{'cui': 'C0362065', 'cui_str': 'Sterilization'}, {'cui': 'C0025663', 'cui_str': 'Methods'}, {'cui': 'C0009443', 'cui_str': 'Common Cold'}, {'cui': 'C0220806', 'cui_str': 'Chemical (substance)'}, {'cui': 'C0444519', 'cui_str': 'Hot sensation quality (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0017814', 'cui_str': 'Glutaral'}, {'cui': 'C0179177', 'cui_str': 'Autoclave, device (physical object)'}]","[{'cui': 'C0453946', 'cui_str': 'Coat (physical object)'}, {'cui': 'C0444504', 'cui_str': 'Mean (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0205148', 'cui_str': 'Surface (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0444519', 'cui_str': 'Hot sensation quality (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0009443', 'cui_str': 'Common Cold'}, {'cui': 'C0362065', 'cui_str': 'Sterilization'}, {'cui': 'C0025663', 'cui_str': 'Methods'}, {'cui': 'C0014901', 'cui_str': 'Esthetics'}, {'cui': 'C0015252', 'cui_str': 'Removal - action (qualifier value)'}]",120.0,0.127952,The mean surface coating loss of hot (autoclave) and cold (glutaraldehyde) sterilization methods was 25.6±28.7 and 28.1±30.8 percent respectively.,"[{'ForeName': 'Seyed Mohammad', 'Initials': 'SM', 'LastName': 'Mousavi', 'Affiliation': 'Ahvaz Jundishapur University of Medical Sciences, Department of Orthodontics, Ahvaz, Iran.'}, {'ForeName': 'Milad', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Shamohammadi', 'Affiliation': 'Ahvaz Jundishapur University of Medical Sciences, Department of Orthodontics, Ahvaz, Iran.

1974,31672481,Low intensity rowing with blood flow restriction over 5 weeks increases V̇O 2 max in elite rowers: A randomized controlled trial.,"OBJECTIVES
The present randomized controlled intervention study examined the effects of practical blood flow restriction (pBFR) on maximal oxygen uptake (V̇O 2 max) during low intensity rowing.
DESIGN
Thirty-one elite rowers were either assigned to the intervention (INT) or control (CON) group, using the minimization method (Strata: Gender, Age, Height, V̇O 2 max).
METHOD
While INT (n=16; 4 female, 12 male, 21.9±3.2 years, 180.4±8.7cm, 73.6±10.9kg, V̇O 2 max: 63.0±7.9ml/min/kg) used pBFR during boat- and indoor-rowing training, CON (n=15, 4 female, 11 male, 21.7±3.7 years, 180.7±8.1cm, 72.5±12.1kg, V̇O 2 max: 63.2±8.5ml/min/kg) completed the identical training without pBFR. pBFR of the lower limb was applied via customized elastic wraps. Training took place three times a week over 5 weeks (accumulated net pBFR: 60min/week; occlusion per session: 2-times 10min/session) and was used exclusively at low intensities (<2mmol/L). A spiroergometric ramp test (V̇O 2 max; 30-40W/min increase) on rowing-ergometer and one-repetition maximum test of the squat exercise (SQ1RM) was employed to assess endurance and strength capacity.
RESULTS
Significant group×time interactions (η p ²=0.26) in favor of INT were found for V̇O 2 max (+9.1±6.2%, Effect Size=1.3) compared to CON (+2.5±6.1%, ES=0.3). SQ1RM (η p ²=0.01) was not affected by the pBFR intervention.
CONCLUSIONS

1975,31735531,Isometric exercise and pain in patellar tendinopathy: A randomized crossover trial.,"OBJECTIVES
The aim of this study was to compare the acute effects of isometric versus dynamic resistance exercise on pain during a pain-provoking activity, and exercise-induced hypoalgesia in participants with patellar tendinopathy.
DESIGN
This study was a pre-registered randomised crossover study. Participants were blinded to the study hypothesis.
METHODS
Participants (N = 21) performed a single session of high load isometric resistance exercise or dynamic resistance exercise, in a randomised order separated by a 7-day washout period. Outcomes were assessed before, immediately after, and 45 min post-exercise. The primary outcome was pain intensity scored on a numeric pain rating scale (NRS; 0-10) during a pain-provoking single leg decline squat (SLDS). Secondary outcomes were pressure pain thresholds (PPTs) locally, distally and remotely, as well as tendon thickness.
RESULTS
There was a significant decrease in pain NRS scores (mean reduction 0.9, NRS 95%CI 0.1-1.7; p = 0.028), and increase in PPTs at the tibialis anterior muscle (mean increase 34 kPa 95%CI 9.5-58.5; p = 0.009) immediately post-exercise. These were not sustained 45 min post-exercise for pain (NRS) or PPTs (p > 0.05). There were no differences between exercise on any outcome.
CONCLUSIONS
While patients with patellar tendinopathy decreased pain during SLDS in response to resistance training, but the magnitude was small. Contraction mode may not be the most important factor in determining the magnitude of pain relieving effects. Similarly, there were only small increases in PPTs at the tibialis anterior which were not superior for isometric exercise.",2020,"There was a significant decrease in pain NRS scores (mean reduction 0.9, NRS 95%CI 0.1-1.7; p = 0.028), and increase in PPTs at the tibialis anterior muscle (mean increase 34 kPa 95%CI 9.5-58.5; p = 0.009) immediately post-exercise.","['Participants (N\u202f=\u202f21', 'participants with patellar tendinopathy', 'patellar tendinopathy']","['Isometric exercise and pain', 'isometric versus dynamic resistance exercise', 'single session of high load isometric resistance exercise or dynamic resistance exercise']","['pain NRS scores', 'pain intensity scored on a numeric pain rating scale (NRS; 0-10) during a pain-provoking single leg decline squat (SLDS', 'PPTs at the tibialis anterior muscle', 'pain during a pain-provoking activity, and exercise-induced hypoalgesia', 'pain', 'PPTs', 'pressure pain thresholds (PPTs) locally, distally and remotely, as well as tendon thickness', 'pain (NRS) or PPTs']","[{'cui': 'C1568272', 'cui_str': 'Tendinopathy'}]","[{'cui': 'C0022206', 'cui_str': 'Exercise, Isometric'}, {'cui': 'C0030193', 'cui_str': 'Pain'}, {'cui': 'C0729333', 'cui_str': 'Dynamic (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0015259', 'cui_str': 'Physical Activity'}, {'cui': 'C0205171', 'cui_str': 'Singular (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0205250', 'cui_str': 'High (qualifier value)'}]","[{'cui': 'C0030193', 'cui_str': 'Pain'}, {'cui': 'C0449820', 'cui_str': 'Scores (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C1320357', 'cui_str': 'Pain intensity'}, {'cui': 'C0222045'}, {'cui': 'C1444748', 'cui_str': 'Provoked by (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0205171', 'cui_str': 'Singular (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0023216', 'cui_str': 'Membrum inferius'}, {'cui': 'C0241236', 'cui_str': 'Does squat (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C0242690', 'cui_str': 'Anterior Tibial Muscle'}, {'cui': 'C0441655', 'cui_str': 'Activity (observable entity)'}, {'cui': 'C0015259', 'cui_str': 'Physical Activity'}, {'cui': 'C0205263', 'cui_str': 'Induced (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0085625', 'cui_str': 'Hypoalgesia (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C0460139', 'cui_str': 'Pressure (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C0162703', 'cui_str': 'Pain Threshold'}, {'cui': 'C0039508', 'cui_str': 'Tendons'}]",,0.239213,"There was a significant decrease in pain NRS scores (mean reduction 0.9, NRS 95%CI 0.1-1.7; p = 0.028), and increase in PPTs at the tibialis anterior muscle (mean increase 34 kPa 95%CI 9.5-58.5; p = 0.009) immediately post-exercise.","[{'ForeName': 'Sinéad', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Holden', 'Affiliation': 'Research Unit for General Practice in Aalborg, Department of Clinical Medicine, Aalborg University, Denmark; SMI, Department of Health Science and Technology, Aalborg University, Denmark.

1976,32037283,Brain activation and subjective anxiety during an anticipatory anxiety task is related to clinical outcome during prazosin treatment for alcohol use disorder.,"BACKGROUND
Higher levels of anxiety, negative affect, and impaired emotion regulation are associated with alcohol use disorder (AUD) and contribute to relapse and worse treatment outcomes. Prazosin, while typically used to treat post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and other anxiety disorders, has shown promise for treating AUD. In order to better understand these underlying neural processes in individuals with AUD, our aims in this study were to measure brain activation during an anticipatory anxiety task before treatment to determine whether observed patterns supported previous work. We then aimed to measure the effects of prazosin on patients with AUD and explore whether greater baseline anticipatory anxiety (as measured by subjective and neural measures) predicts better treatment outcomes.
METHODS
Thirty-four individuals seeking treatment for AUD participated in a six-week placebo-controlled study of prazosin and underwent an anticipatory anxiety task during fMRI scans at baseline and three weeks. Alcohol use over six weeks was measured.
RESULTS
Greater levels of subjective anxiety and deactivation in posterior cingulate cortex (PCC) and ventromedial prefrontal cortex (vmPFC) were observed during high-threat stimuli compared to low-threat stimuli. Compared to placebo, prazosin reduced subjective anxiety to high-threat stimuli but there were no observed significant effects of prazosin on brain activation during the task. However, AUD patients with greater vmPFC deactivation during high threat relative to low threat and patients with low baseline anticipatory anxiety during the task had worse clinical outcomes on prazosin.
CONCLUSIONS
Deactivation in PCC and vmPFC to high-threat stimuli replicated previous work and shows promise for further study as a marker for AUD. Although prazosin did not affect brain activation in the regions of interest during the anticipatory anxiety task, subjective levels of anxiety and brain activation in vmPFC predicted treatment outcomes in individuals with AUD undergoing treatment with prazosin, highlighting individuals more likely to benefit from prazosin than others.",2020,"Compared to placebo, prazosin reduced subjective anxiety to high-threat stimuli but there were no observed significant effects of prazosin on brain activation during the task.","['individuals with AUD undergoing treatment with', 'individuals with AUD', 'Thirty-four individuals seeking treatment for AUD participated in a six-week', 'patients with AUD']","['prazosin and underwent an anticipatory anxiety task', 'placebo, prazosin', 'Prazosin', 'placebo', 'prazosin']","['baseline anticipatory anxiety', 'subjective anxiety', 'Brain activation and subjective anxiety', 'anticipatory anxiety task, subjective levels of anxiety and brain activation', 'brain activation', 'subjective anxiety and deactivation in posterior cingulate cortex (PCC) and ventromedial prefrontal cortex (vmPFC']","[{'cui': 'C0237401', 'cui_str': 'Individual (person)'}, {'cui': 'C0087111', 'cui_str': 'Therapy'}, {'cui': 'C3816446', 'cui_str': '30'}, {'cui': 'C0439230', 'cui_str': 'week (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}]","[{'cui': 'C0032912', 'cui_str': 'Prazosin'}, {'cui': 'C0231397', 'cui_str': 'Anticipatory anxiety (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C1696465', 'cui_str': 'placebo'}]","[{'cui': 'C0231397', 'cui_str': 'Anticipatory anxiety (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C0439655', 'cui_str': 'Subjective observation'}, {'cui': 'C0003467', 'cui_str': 'Anxiety'}, {'cui': 'C0006104', 'cui_str': 'Encephalon'}, {'cui': 'C0564474', 'cui_str': 'Level of anxiety (observable entity)'}, {'cui': 'C0175191', 'cui_str': 'Posterior Cingulate'}, {'cui': 'C3850122', 'cui_str': 'Ventral Medial Prefrontal Cortex'}]",34.0,0.0217835,"Compared to placebo, prazosin reduced subjective anxiety to high-threat stimuli but there were no observed significant effects of prazosin on brain activation during the task.","[{'ForeName': 'Claire E', 'Initials': 'CE', 'LastName': 'Wilcox', 'Affiliation': 'Mind Research Network, 1101 Yale Blvd. NE, Albuquerque, NM 87106, USA.

1977,32020414,Exercise improves metformin 72-h glucose control by reducing the frequency of hyperglycemic peaks.,"PURPOSE
To determine the separated and combined effects of metformin and exercise on insulin sensitivity and free-living glycemic control in overweight individuals with prediabetes/type 2 diabetes (T2DM).
METHODS
We recruited 16 adults with BMI of 32.7 ± 4.3 kg m -2 and insulin resistance (HOMA-IR 3.2 ± 0.4) under chronic metformin treatment (1234 ± 465 g day -1 ) enrolled in a high-intensity interval training (HIIT) program. Participants underwent four 72-h experimental trials in a random-counterbalanced order: (1) maintaining their habitual metformin treatment (MET); (2) replacing metformin treatment by placebo (CON); (3) placebo plus two HIIT sessions (EX + CON), and (4) metformin plus two HIIT sessions (MET + EX). We used intermittently scanned continuous glucose monitoring (isCGM) during 72 h in every trial to obtain interstitial fluid glucose area under the curve (IFG AUC ) and the percentage of measurements over 180 mg dL -1 (% IFG PEAKS ). Insulin sensitivity was assessed on the last day of each trial with HOMA-IR index and calculated insulin sensitivity (C SI ) from intravenous glucose tolerance test.
RESULTS
IFG AUC was lower in MET + EX and MET than in CON (P = 0.011 and P = 0.025, respectively). In addition, IFG AUC was lower in MET + EX than in EX + CON (P = 0.044). %IFG PEAKS were only lower in MET + EX in relation to CON (P = 0.028). HOMA-IR and C SI were higher in CON in comparison with MET + EX (P = 0.011 and P = 0.022, respectively) and MET (P = 0.006 and P < 0.001, respectively). IFG AUC showed a significant correlation with HOMA-IR.

1978,32013946,The cost of the training and supervision of community health workers to improve exclusive breastfeeding amongst mothers in a cluster randomised controlled trial in South Africa.,"BACKGROUND
Interventions targeting community health workers (CHWs) aim to optimise the delivery of health services to underserved rural areas. Whilst interventions are evaluated against their objectives, there remains limited evidence on the economic costs of these interventions, and the practicality and value of scale up. The aim of this paper is to undertake a cost analysis on a CHW training and supervision intervention using exclusive breastfeeding rates amongst mothers as an outcome measure.
METHODS
This is a retrospective cost analysis, from an implementer's perspective, of a cluster randomised controlled trial investigating the effectiveness of a continuous quality improvement (CQI) intervention aimed at CHWs providing care and support to pregnant women and women with babies aged < 1 year in South Africa.
RESULTS
One of the outcomes of the RCT revealed that the prevalence of exclusive breastfeeding (EBF) significantly improved, with the cost per mother EBF in the control and intervention arm calculated at US$760,13 and US$1705,28 respectively. The cost per additional mother practicing EBF was calculated to be US$7647, 88, with the supervision component of the intervention constituting 64% of the trial costs. In addition, women served by the intervention CHWs were more likely to have received a CHW visit and had significantly better knowledge of childcare practices.
CONCLUSION
Whilst the cost of this intervention is high, adapted interventions could potentially offer an economical alternative for achieving selected maternal and child health (MCH) outcomes. The results of this study should inform future programmes aimed at providing adapted training and supervision to CHWs with the objective of improving community-level health outcomes.",2020,"BACKGROUND

1979,32020296,Reperfusion of Pulmonary Arteriovenous Malformations Following Embolotherapy: A Randomized Controlled Trial of Detachable Versus Pushable Coils.,"PURPOSE
To compare 1 year post-embolization reperfusion rates in pulmonary arteriovenous malformations (PAVMs) treated with the 0.035″ Interlock™ Fibered IDC™ Occlusion System coils (IDC) (Boston Scientific, Marlborough, Massachusetts) versus 0.035″ Nester coils (Cook Medical Inc., Bloomington, Indiana).
MATERIALS AND METHODS
A randomized controlled trial was performed randomizing individual PAVMs to treatment with IDC versus Nester coils at the largest hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia center in Canada. The primary outcome was CT evidence of reperfusion at 1 year. Secondary outcomes included periprocedural complications, fluoroscopy time and contrast volume.
RESULTS
Our study was terminated prematurely due to slow recruitment and subsequent expiration of funding. A total of 46 PAVMs in 25 patients (64% female) were included in our study; 26 randomized to Nester coils and 20 randomized to IDC. One patient was lost to follow-up. At a mean follow-up of 421.2 ± 215.7 days, no significant difference in PAVM reperfusion was detected between Nester coils and IDC (0% vs. 5.6%, p > 0.05).

1980,31303390,"2 years of calorie restriction and cardiometabolic risk (CALERIE): exploratory outcomes of a multicentre, phase 2, randomised controlled trial.","BACKGROUND
For several cardiometabolic risk factors, values considered within normal range are associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. We aimed to investigate the short-term and long-term effects of calorie restriction with adequate nutrition on these risk factors in healthy, lean, or slightly overweight young and middle-aged individuals.
METHODS
CALERIE was a phase 2, multicentre, randomised controlled trial in young and middle-aged (21-50 years), healthy non-obese (BMI 22·0-27·9 kg/m 2 ) men and women done in three clinical centres in the USA. Participants were randomly assigned (2:1) to a 25% calorie restriction diet or an ad libitum control diet. Exploratory cardiometabolic risk factor responses to a prescribed 25% calorie restriction diet for 2 years were evaluated (systolic, diastolic, and mean blood pressure; plasma lipids; high-sensitivity C-reactive protein; metabolic syndrome score; and glucose homoeostasis measures of fasting insulin, glucose, insulin resistance, and 2-h glucose, area-under-the curve for glucose, and insulin from an oral glucose tolerance test) analysed in the intention-to-treat population. This study is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, number NCT00427193.
FINDINGS
From May 8, 2007, to Feb 26, 2010, of 238 participants that were assessed, 218 were randomly assigned to and started a 25% calorie restriction diet (n=143, 66%) or an ad libitum control diet (n=75, 34%). Individuals in the calorie restriction group achieved a mean reduction in calorie intake of 11·9% (SE 0·7; from 2467 kcal to 2170 kcal) versus 0·8% (1·0) in the control group, and a sustained mean weight reduction of 7·5 kg (SE 0·4) versus an increase of 0·1 kg (0·5) in the control group, of which 71% (mean change in fat mass 5·3 kg [SE 0·3] divided by mean change in weight 7·5 kg [0·4]) was fat mass loss. Calorie restriction caused a persistent and significant reduction from baseline to 2 years of all measured conventional cardiometabolic risk factors, including change scores for LDL-cholesterol (p<0·0001), total cholesterol to HDL-cholesterol ratio (p<0·0001), and systolic (p<0·0011) and diastolic (p<0·0001) blood pressure. In addition, calorie restriction resulted in a significant improvement at 2 years in C-reactive protein (p=0·012), insulin sensitivity index (p<0·0001), and metabolic syndrome score (p<0·0001) relative to control. A sensitivity analysis revealed the responses to be robust after controlling for relative weight loss changes.
INTERPRETATION
2 years of moderate calorie restriction significantly reduced multiple cardiometabolic risk factors in young, non-obese adults. These findings suggest the potential for a substantial advantage for cardiovascular health of practicing moderate calorie restriction in young and middle-aged healthy individuals, and they offer promise for pronounced long-term population health benefits.

1981,32017643,Vaccine hesitancy and influenza beliefs among parents of children requiring a second dose of influenza vaccine in a season: An American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) Pediatric Research in Office Settings (PROS) study.,"To receive adequate protection against influenza, some children 6 months through 8 y old need two doses of influenza vaccine in a given season. Currently, only half of those receiving the first dose receive a second. Our objective was to assess vaccine hesitancy and influenza disease and vaccine knowledge, attitudes, and beliefs among caregivers of children who received the first of their two needed doses. As part of a national-randomized control trial of second dose text-message influenza vaccine reminders (2017-2018 season), a telephone survey collected caregiver and index child demographic information. Each child had received the first of two needed influenza vaccine doses. Caregivers completed a measure of general vaccine hesitancy - the five-question Parent Attitudes About Childhood Vaccines Survey Tool (PACV-5) - and questions about influenza infection and vaccine. We assessed associations between participant demographic characteristics, vaccine hesitancy, and influenza beliefs and calculated the standardized proportion of caregivers endorsing each outcome using logistic regression. Analyses included responses from 256 participants from 36 primary care practices in 24 states. Some caregivers (11.7%) reported moderate/high vaccine hesitancy and many had misperceptions about influenza disease and vaccine. In multivariable models, no single variable was consistently associated with inaccurate knowledge, attitudes, and beliefs. These results demonstrate that caregivers whose children received the first dose of influenza vaccine may still be vaccine hesitant and have inaccurate influenza beliefs. Pediatricians should consider broadly addressing inaccurate beliefs and promoting vaccination even after caregivers agree to the first dose.",2020,Caregivers completed a measure of general vaccine hesitancy - the five-question Parent Attitudes,"['caregivers of children who received the first of their two needed doses', 'parents of children requiring a second dose of', '256 participants from 36 primary care practices in 24 states']","['text-message influenza vaccine reminders', 'general vaccine hesitancy - the five-question Parent Attitudes', 'influenza vaccine']","['inaccurate knowledge, attitudes, and beliefs', 'participant demographic characteristics, vaccine hesitancy, and influenza beliefs']","[{'cui': 'C0085537', 'cui_str': 'Care Givers'}, {'cui': 'C0008059', 'cui_str': 'Child'}, {'cui': 'C0869039', 'cui_str': 'Unit dose'}, {'cui': 'C0030551', 'cui_str': 'Parent of (observable entity)'}, {'cui': 'C0457385', 'cui_str': 'Seconds (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0033137', 'cui_str': 'Primary Care'}, {'cui': 'C1301808', 'cui_str': 'State'}]","[{'cui': 'C3178910', 'cui_str': 'Text Messages'}, {'cui': 'C0021403', 'cui_str': 'Influenza Vaccines'}, {'cui': 'C0205246', 'cui_str': 'Generalized (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0042210', 'cui_str': 'Vaccines'}, {'cui': 'C0152032', 'cui_str': 'Delay when starting to pass urine (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C0085092', 'cui_str': 'Parenting'}, {'cui': 'C0004271', 'cui_str': 'Attitude'}]","[{'cui': 'C0443236', 'cui_str': 'Inaccurate (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0376554', 'cui_str': 'Knowledge'}, {'cui': 'C0004271', 'cui_str': 'Attitude'}, {'cui': 'C0004951', 'cui_str': 'Beliefs'}, {'cui': 'C0011298', 'cui_str': 'Demographics'}, {'cui': 'C0042210', 'cui_str': 'Vaccines'}, {'cui': 'C0152032', 'cui_str': 'Delay when starting to pass urine (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C0021400', 'cui_str': 'Influenza, Human'}]",,0.0425927,Caregivers completed a measure of general vaccine hesitancy - the five-question Parent Attitudes,"[{'ForeName': 'Ekaterina', 'Initials': 'E', 'LastName': 'Nekrasova', 'Affiliation': ""Department of Pediatrics, Center for Pediatric Clinical Effectiveness & PolicyLab, The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, Philadelphia, PA, USA.""}, {'ForeName': 'Melissa S', 'Initials': 'MS', 'LastName': 'Stockwell', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Pediatrics, Department of Population and Family Health, Columbia University, New York, NY, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Russell', 'Initials': 'R', 'LastName': 'Localio', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Biostatistics, Epidemiology & Informatics, University of Pennsylvania, Perelman School of Medicine, Philadelphia, PA, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Justine', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Shults', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Biostatistics, Epidemiology & Informatics, University of Pennsylvania, Perelman School of Medicine, Philadelphia, PA, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Chelsea', 'Initials': 'C', 'LastName': 'Wynn', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Pediatrics, Columbia University, New York, NY, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Laura P', 'Initials': 'LP', 'LastName': 'Shone', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Research, American Academy of Pediatrics, Itasca, IL, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Lindsay', 'Initials': 'L', 'LastName': 'Berrigan', 'Affiliation': ""Department of Pediatrics, Center for Pediatric Clinical Effectiveness & PolicyLab, The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, Philadelphia, PA, USA.""}, {'ForeName': 'Chelsea', 'Initials': 'C', 'LastName': 'Kolff', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Pediatrics, Department of Population and Family Health, Columbia University, New York, NY, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Miranda', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Griffith', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Research, American Academy of Pediatrics, Itasca, IL, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Andrew', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Johnson', 'Affiliation': ""Department of Pediatrics, Center for Pediatric Clinical Effectiveness & PolicyLab, The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, Philadelphia, PA, USA.""}, {'ForeName': 'Alessandra', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Torres', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Research, American Academy of Pediatrics, Itasca, IL, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Douglas J', 'Initials': 'DJ', 'LastName': 'Opel', 'Affiliation': ""University of Washington School of Medicine and Center for Clinical and Translational Research, Seattle Children's Research Institute, Seattle, WA, USA.""}, {'ForeName': 'Alexander G', 'Initials': 'AG', 'LastName': 'Fiks', 'Affiliation': ""Department of Pediatrics, Center for Pediatric Clinical Effectiveness & PolicyLab, The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, Philadelphia, PA, USA.""}]",Human vaccines & immunotherapeutics,['10.1080/21645515.2019.1707006']
1982,31876704,"Randomized, self-controlled, prospective assessment of the efficacy of mometasone furoate local application in reducing acute radiation dermatitis in patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinomas.","BACKGROUND
Acute radiation dermatitis (ARD) is a common adverse effect in patients undergoing radiotherapy. Mometasone furoate cream (MMF) was reported to significantly reduce ARD, especially in breast cancer. Clinically, ARD is more critical and more difficult to prevent in patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) than in those with breast cancer, because a higher dose of radiotherapy is required in HNSCC cases. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of MMF local application on radiation dermatitis in patients with HNSCC.
METHODS
HNSCC patients scheduled for bilateral radical radiotherapy to the neck with identical radiation doses were enrolled. One side of the neck skin (test groups) of the patients were randomized to apply a thin layer of MMF once a day from the date of first radiotherapy until either 2 weeks after end of radiotherapy or until the test side skin developed ARD lesions, while the other side of neck (control groups) didn't apply any medication. The severity of ARD was evaluated weekly by using the modified radiation therapy oncology group score, pain intensity, and itch stages.
RESULTS
Forty-one patients (82 targets) were analyzed. There was a significant difference between the ARD scores on the test side and the control side. MMF reduced the stages of ARD when the radiotherapy dose was <6000 cGY (P = .01) but showed no improvement when the dose was ≥6000 cGY (P = .699). Compared to the control side, local application of MMF significantly reduced the itch and pain scores of the test side skin regardless of the radiotherapy dose and ARD stage (P < .001) during radiotherapy.
CONCLUSIONS

1983,32013901,"Nutritional and health status of children 15 months after integrated school garden, nutrition, and water, sanitation and hygiene interventions: a cluster-randomised controlled trial in Nepal.","BACKGROUND
It has been suggested that specific interventions delivered through the education sector in low- and middle-income countries might improve children's health and wellbeing. This cluster-randomised controlled trial aimed to evaluate the effects of a school garden programme and complementary nutrition, and water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) interventions on children's health and nutritional status in two districts of Nepal.
METHODS
The trial included 682 children aged 8-17 years from 12 schools. The schools were randomly allocated to one of three interventions: (a) school garden programme (SG; 4 schools, n = 172 children); (b) school garden programme with complementary WASH, health and nutrition interventions (SG+; 4 schools, n = 197 children); and (c) no specific intervention (control; 4 schools, n = 313 children). The same field and laboratory procedures were employed at the baseline (March 2015) and end-line (June 2016) surveys. Questionnaires were administered to evaluate WASH conditions at schools and households. Water quality was assessed using a Delagua kit. Dietary intake was determined using food frequency and 24-h recall questionnaire. Haemoglobin levels were measured using HemoCue digital device and used as a proxy for anaemia. Stool samples were subjected to a suite of copro-microscopic diagnostic methods for detection of intestinal protozoa and helminths. The changes in key indicators between the baseline and end-line surveys were analysed by mixed logistic and linear regression models.
RESULTS
Stunting was slightly lowered in SG+ (19.9 to 18.3%; p = 0.92) and in the control (19.7 to 18.9%). Anaemia slightly decreased in SG+ (33.0 to 32.0%; p < 0.01) and markedly increased in the control (22.7 to 41.3%; p < 0.01), a minor decline was found in the control (43.9 to 42.4%). Handwashing with soap before eating strongly increased in SG+ (from 74.1 to 96.9%; p = 0.01, compared to control where only a slight increase was observed from 78.0 to 84.0%). A similar observation was made for handwashing after defecation (increase from 77.2 to 99.0% in SG+ versus 78.0 to 91.9% in control, p = 0.15).
CONCLUSIONS
An integrated intervention consisting of school garden, WASH, nutrition and health components (SG+) increased children's fruit and vegetable consumption, decreased intestinal parasitic infections and improved hygiene behaviours.

1984,31820546,Baseline features of the VICTORIA (Vericiguat Global Study in Subjects with Heart Failure with Reduced Ejection Fraction) trial.,"AIM
Describe the distinguishing features of heart failure (HF) patients with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) in the VICTORIA (Vericiguat Global Study in Patients with Heart Failure with Reduced Ejection Fraction) trial.
METHODS AND RESULTS
Key background characteristics were evaluated in 5050 patients randomized in VICTORIA and categorized into three cohorts reflecting their index worsening HF event. Differences within the VICTORIA population were assessed and compared with PARADIGM-HF (Prospective comparison of ARNI with ACEI to Determine Impact on Global Mortality and Morbidity in Heart Failure) and COMMANDER HF (A Study to Assess the Effectiveness and Safety of Rivaroxaban in Reducing the Risk of Death, Myocardial Infarction, or Stroke in Participants with Heart Failure and Coronary Artery Disease Following an Episode of Decompensated Heart Failure). VICTORIA patients had increased risk of mortality and rehospitalization: New York Heart Association class (40% class III), atrial fibrillation (45%), diabetes (47%), hypertension (79%) and mean estimated glomerular filtration rate of 61.5 mL/min/1.73 m 2 . Baseline standard of HF care was very good: 60% received triple therapy. Their N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide was 3377 pg/mL [interquartile range (IQR) 1992-6380]. Natriuretic peptides were 30% higher level in the 67% patients with HF hospitalization <3 months, compared to those within 3-6 months of HF hospitalization and those randomized after recent outpatient intravenous diuretic therapy. Overall the median MAGGIC (Meta-Analysis Global Group in Chronic Heart Failure) risk score in VICTORIA was 23 (IQR 18-27) as compared to the MAGGIC risk score in PARADIGM-HF of 20 (IQR 16-24).

1985,31036503,Morbidity and mortality after lifestyle intervention for people with impaired glucose tolerance: 30-year results of the Da Qing Diabetes Prevention Outcome Study.,"BACKGROUND
Lifestyle interventions can delay the onset of type 2 diabetes in people with impaired glucose tolerance, but whether this leads subsequently to fewer complications or to increased longevity is uncertain. We aimed to assess the long-term effects of lifestyle interventions in people with impaired glucose tolerance on the incidence of diabetes, its complications, and mortality.
METHODS
The original study was a cluster randomised trial, started in 1986, in which 33 clinics in Da Qing, China, were randomly assigned to either be a control clinic or provide one of three interventions (diet, exercise, or diet plus exercise) for 6 years for 577 adults with impaired glucose tolerance who usually receive their medical care from the clinics. Subsequently, participants were followed for up to 30 years to assess the effects of intervention on the incidence of diabetes, cardiovascular disease events, composite microvascular complications, cardiovascular disease death, all-cause mortality, and life expectancy.
FINDINGS
Of the 577 participants, 438 were assigned to an intervention group and 138 to the control group (one refused baseline examination). After 30 years of follow-up, 540 (94%) of 576 participants were assessed for outcomes (135 in the control group, 405 in the intervention group). During the 30-year follow-up, compared with control, the combined intervention group had a median delay in diabetes onset of 3·96 years (95% CI 1·25 to 6·67; p=0·0042), fewer cardiovascular disease events (hazard ratio 0·74, 95% CI 0·59-0·92; p=0·0060), a lower incidence of microvascular complications (0·65, 0·45-0·95; p=0·025), fewer cardiovascular disease deaths (0·67, 0·48-0·94; p=0·022), fewer all-cause deaths (0·74, 0·61-0·89; p=0·0015), and an average increase in life expectancy of 1·44 years (95% CI 0·20-2·68; p=0·023).
INTERPRETATION
Lifestyle intervention in people with impaired glucose tolerance delayed the onset of type 2 diabetes and reduced the incidence of cardiovascular events, microvascular complications, and cardiovascular and all-cause mortality, and increased life expectancy. These findings provide strong justification to continue to implement and expand the use of such interventions to curb the global epidemic of type 2 diabetes and its consequences.

The main objective was to evaluate the effects of action observation (AO), visual mirror feedback (VMF) and motor imagery (MI), combined with an oro-facial exercise programme, on sensorimotor variables in asymptomatic participants.
METHODS
We designed a randomised, single-blind, controlled trial that included 52 asymptomatic participants who were randomly assigned to 4 groups, 13 to each of the VMF, MI and AO groups and 13 to the control group (CG), which only performed the exercise programme. The primary outcomes were pain pressure sensitivity and tongue muscle strength. The secondary outcomes were maximum mouth opening, tongue length and the ability to generate mental motor images. Each group underwent a 3-session intervention using their respective exercise. Measurements were performed before starting the intervention and after each of the 3 sessions (pre, mid1, mid2 and post).
RESULTS
ANOVA revealed significant changes in PPTs in the masseter muscle region in the MI and AO groups in the pre-post and mid1-post changes. ANOVA revealed significant differences in tongue muscle strength in the anterior direction only in the AO group in the pre-mid2 and pre-post changes.
CONCLUSIONS
AO and MI, in conjunction with exercise, could induce changes in PPTs for the masseter muscle. In addition, only AO produced changes in tongue muscle strength.

This study aimed to compare the quadratus lumborum block (QLB) method with transversus abdominis plane block (TAPB) for postoperative pain management in patients undergoing laparoscopic colorectal surgery.
METHODS
Seventy-four patients scheduled for laparoscopic colorectal surgery were randomly assigned into 2 groups. After surgery, patients received bilateral ultrasound-guided single-dose of QLB or TAPB. Each side was administered with 20 ml of 0.375% ropivacaine. All patients received sufentanil as patient-controlled intravenous analgesia (PCIA). Resting and moving numeric rating scale (NRS) were assessed at 2, 4, 6, 24, 48 hours postoperatively. The primary outcome measure was sufentanil consumption at predetermined time intervals after surgery.
RESULTS
Patients in the QLB group used significantly less sufentanil than TAPB group at 24 and 48 hours (P < .05), but not at 6 hours (P = .33) after laparoscopic colorectal surgery. No significant differences in NRS results were found between the two groups at rest or during movement (P > .05). Incidence of dizziness in the QLB group was lower than in TAPB group (P < .05).
CONCLUSIONS
The QLB is a more effective postoperative analgesia as it reduces sufentanil consumption compared to TAPB in patients undergoing laparoscopic colorectal surgery.",2019,"Incidence of dizziness in the QLB group was lower than in TAPB group (P < .05).

1988,28749822,Comparison of Hepatitis B Virus Infection in HIV-Infected and HIV-Uninfected Participants Enrolled in a Multinational Clinical Trial: HPTN 052.,"OBJECTIVE
Data comparing hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection in HIV-infected [HIV(+)], and HIV-uninfected [HIV(-)] individuals recruited into the same study are limited. HBV infection status and chronic hepatitis B (cHB) were characterized in a multinational clinical trial: HIV Prevention Trials Network (HPTN 052).
METHOD
HBV infection status at enrollment was compared between HIV(+) (N = 1241) and HIV(-) (N = 1232) from 7 HBV-endemic countries. Hepatitis B e antigen and plasma HBV DNA were determined in cHB. Median CD4, median plasma HIV RNA, and prevalence of transaminase elevation were compared in HIV(+) with and without cHB. Significance was assessed with χ, Fisher exact, and median tests.
RESULTS
Among all participants, 33.6% had HBV exposure without cHB (8.9% isolated HBV core antibody, ""HBcAb""; 24.7% HBcAb and anti-HB surface antibody positive, ""recovered""), 4.3% had cHB, 8.9% were vaccinated, and 53.5% were uninfected. Data were similar among HIV(+) and HIV(-) except for isolated HBcAb, which was more prevalent in HIV(+) than HIV(-) [10.1% vs. 7.7%, P = 0.046]. Median HBV DNA trended higher in HIV(+) than in HIV(-). In HIV(+) with cHB versus those without cHB, transaminase elevations were more prevalent (alanine aminotransferase ≤ grade 2, 12% vs. 5.2%, P = 0.037; aspartate aminotransferase ≤ grade 2, 26% vs. 6.0%, P < 0.001), CD4 trended lower, and HIV RNA was similar.
CONCLUSIONS
HBV infection status did not differ by HIV infection status. HIV co-infection was associated with isolated HBcAb and a trend of increased HBV DNA.

1989,31876707,"Comparison of the selected parameters of the anterior segment of the eye between femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery, microincision cataract surgery, and conventional phacoemulsification: A case-control study.","The purpose of our study was to compare the selected parameters of the anterior segment of the eye in patients after femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery (FLACS) with the results of microincision cataract surgery (MICS) and conventional phacoemulsification surgery (CPS). This single-center prospective randomized comparative observational study included 87 patients. Patients were randomly selected into group A (FLACS), group B (MICS) and group C (control group). All the surgeries were performed by the same experienced surgeon. Preoperative and postoperative parameters were evaluated: best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), endothelial cell density (ECD), endothelial cell loss percentage (ECL%), central corneal thickness (CCT), central anterior and posterior corneal astigmatism induction, posterior corneal elevation map were measured. Intraoperative parameters: effective phacoemulsification time (EPT), balanced salt solution use (BSS use), total surgical time and suction time were analyzed. Examination was performed preoperatively and on the first, seventh day, one and six months postoperatively. The follow up period was 6 months. There was no statistically significant difference in BCVA, central anterior and posterior astigmatism induction between studied groups. The ECL% was statistically significant lower in the group A on the 7th day, 1 month and 6-months postoperatively (P < .05). The CCT was statistically significant lower in the group A and in the group B than in the group C on the 7th postoperative day (P = .002). However, in the 6 months follow-up there was no statistically significant difference in the CCT between studied groups (P = .133). We observed statistically significant difference in change of the posterior corneal elevation map at the periphery assessed within the 90° to 120°meridian range between group A, group B and group C at every timepoint postoperatively (P < .05).

1990,31096275,Cuff-assisted versus cap-assisted colonoscopy for adenoma detection: results of a randomized study.,"BACKGROUND
The adenoma detection rate (ADR) is the most important marker of colonoscopy quality. Devices to improve adenoma detection have been developed, such as the Endocuff and transparent cap. The aim of the current study was to examine whether there was a difference in ADR between Endocuff-assisted (EAC) and cap-assisted colonoscopy (CAC).
METHODS
A randomized prospective trial was conducted. Eligible patients included adults ≥ 18 years referred because of symptoms, surveillance, or colonoscopies as part of the Bowel Cancer Screening Programme (BCSP). The primary outcome measure was ADR. Secondary outcomes included mean number of adenomas, mean number of polyps, polyp detection rate, cecal intubation rate, and time to cecal intubation. Procedural measures, device removal rate, and adverse events were also recorded.
RESULTS
A total of 711 patients (51.1 % men; median age 63 years) were included, of whom 357 patients were randomized to EAC and 354 patients to CAC. In the intention-to-treat analysis, the ADR was similar in both groups: EAC 50.4 % (95 % confidence interval [CI] 45.1 - 55.7) vs. CAC 50.6 % (95 %CI 45.2 - 55.9). Similar results were obtained in the per-protocol analysis: EAC 51.6 % (95 %CI 46.2 - 57) vs. CAC 51.4 % (95 %CI 46 - 56.8). There were no differences between the two devices in ADR according to the mean number of adenomas and polyps per procedure, polyp detection rate, cecal intubation rate, and time to cecal intubation. Device removal rate and adverse events were also similar.
CONCLUSION
In this randomized study, no differences in ADR were found between Endocuff- and cap-assisted colonoscopy.",2019,"There were no differences between the two devices in ADR according to the mean number of adenomas and polyps per procedure, polyp detection rate, cecal intubation rate, and time to cecal intubation.","['adenoma detection', 'Eligible patients included adults ≥\u200a18 years referred because of symptoms, surveillance, or colonoscopies as part of the Bowel Cancer Screening Programme (BCSP', 'and 354 patients to CAC', '711 patients (51.1\u200a% men; median age 63 years) were included, of whom 357 patients']","['EAC', 'Cuff-assisted versus cap-assisted colonoscopy', 'Endocuff- and cap-assisted colonoscopy', 'Endocuff-assisted (EAC) and cap-assisted colonoscopy (CAC']","['mean number of adenomas and polyps per procedure, polyp detection rate, cecal intubation rate, and time to cecal intubation', 'Procedural measures, device removal rate, and adverse events', 'ADR', 'Device removal rate and adverse events', 'mean number of adenomas, mean number of polyps, polyp detection rate, cecal intubation rate, and time to cecal intubation']","[{'cui': 'C0001430', 'cui_str': 'Adenoma'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C0332257', 'cui_str': 'Including (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0001675', 'cui_str': 'Adult'}, {'cui': 'C0439234', 'cui_str': 'year (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0683368', 'cui_str': 'symptoms'}, {'cui': 'C0733511', 'cui_str': 'Surveillance (regime/therapy)'}, {'cui': 'C0009378', 'cui_str': 'Endoscopy of colon'}, {'cui': 'C1292711', 'cui_str': 'Part of (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0346627', 'cui_str': 'Cancer of Intestines'}, {'cui': 'C0220908', 'cui_str': 'Screening'}, {'cui': 'C0086418', 'cui_str': 'Humans'}, {'cui': 'C2939193', 'cui_str': 'Median (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0001792', 'cui_str': 'Elderly'}]","[{'cui': 'C1269765', 'cui_str': 'Assists (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0179586', 'cui_str': 'Cap (physical object)'}, {'cui': 'C0009378', 'cui_str': 'Endoscopy of colon'}]","[{'cui': 'C0444504', 'cui_str': 'Mean (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0237753', 'cui_str': 'Number (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0001430', 'cui_str': 'Adenoma'}, {'cui': 'C0032584', 'cui_str': 'Polyp (morphologic abnormality)'}, {'cui': 'C0184661', 'cui_str': 'Procedures'}, {'cui': 'C0021925', 'cui_str': 'Intubation'}, {'cui': 'C1632851', 'cui_str': 'Times'}, {'cui': 'C1879489', 'cui_str': 'Measures (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0752250', 'cui_str': 'Device Removal'}, {'cui': 'C0877248', 'cui_str': 'Adverse event'}, {'cui': 'C0449207', 'cui_str': 'ADR (body structure)'}]",711.0,0.308492,"There were no differences between the two devices in ADR according to the mean number of adenomas and polyps per procedure, polyp detection rate, cecal intubation rate, and time to cecal intubation.","[{'ForeName': 'Javier', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Sola-Vera', 'Affiliation': 'Gastroenterology Department, Hospital General Universitario de Elche, Elche, Spain.'}, {'ForeName': 'Lourdes', 'Initials': 'L', 'LastName': 'Catalá', 'Affiliation': 'Gastroenterology Department, Hospital General Universitario de Elche, Elche, Spain.'}, {'ForeName': 'Francisco', 'Initials': 'F', 'LastName': 'Uceda', 'Affiliation': 'Gastroenterology Department, Hospital General Universitario de Elche, Elche, Spain.'}, {'ForeName': 'María Dolores', 'Initials': 'MD', 'LastName': 'Picó', 'Affiliation': 'Gastroenterology Department, Hospital General Universitario de Elche, Elche, Spain.'}, {'ForeName': 'Estefanía', 'Initials': 'E', 'LastName': 'Pérez Rabasco', 'Affiliation': 'Gastroenterology Department, Hospital General Universitario de Elche, Elche, Spain.'}, {'ForeName': 'Jesús', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Sáez', 'Affiliation': 'Gastroenterology Department, Hospital General Universitario de Elche, Elche, Spain.'}, {'ForeName': 'Nuria', 'Initials': 'N', 'LastName': 'Jiménez', 'Affiliation': 'Gastroenterology Department, Hospital General Universitario de Elche, Elche, Spain.'}, {'ForeName': 'María Dolores', 'Initials': 'MD', 'LastName': 'Arjona', 'Affiliation': 'Gastroenterology Department, Hospital General Universitario de Elche, Elche, Spain.'}, {'ForeName': 'María', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Fernández', 'Affiliation': 'Gastroenterology Department, Hospital General Universitario de Elche, Elche, Spain.'}, {'ForeName': 'Eva', 'Initials': 'E', 'LastName': 'Girona', 'Affiliation': 'Gastroenterology Department, Hospital General Universitario de Elche, Elche, Spain.'}, {'ForeName': 'Mariana Fe', 'Initials': 'MF', 'LastName': 'García-Sepulcre', 'Affiliation': 'Gastroenterology Department, Hospital General Universitario de Elche, Elche, Spain.'}]",Endoscopy,['10.1055/a-0901-7306']

We present the 2-year follow-up of the phase 2 KEYNOTE-087 study of pembrolizumab in 210 patients, based on HL progression after autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) and subsequent brentuximab vedotin (BV; cohort 1); salvage chemotherapy and BV, with ineligibility for SCT owing to chemorefractory disease (cohort 2); and progression after SCT without BV (cohort 3). With a median follow-up of 27.6 months, the objective response rate (ORR) by blinded independent central review was 71.9% (95% CI, 65.3-77.9), the complete response rate (CRR) was 27.6%, and the partial response (PR) rate was 44.3%. Median duration of response was 16.5 months (range, 0.0+ to 27.0+ [+, no progressive disease at last assessment]) in all patients, 22.1 months in cohort 1, 11.1 months in cohort 2, and 24.4 months in cohort 3. Median progression-free survival was not reached in all patients with CR: 13.8 months (95% CI, 12.0-22.1) for patients with PR and 10.9 months (95% CI, 5.6-11.1) for patients with stable disease. Median overall survival was not reached in all patients or in any cohort. Treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) of any grade occurred in 153 (72.9%) patients; grades 3 and 4 occurred in 25 (12.0%) patients; none resulted in death.

1992,31923341,Effects of Supplemental Vitamin D on Bone Health Outcomes in Women and Men in the VITamin D and OmegA-3 TriaL (VITAL).,"Although supplemental vitamin D is used to promote bone health in the general population, data from randomized controlled trials (RCTs) have been inconsistent. We determined whether daily, vitamin D 3 supplementation improves bone mineral density (BMD) and/or structure. VITamin D and OmegA-3 TriaL (VITAL) is a double-blind, placebo-controlled RCT of supplemental vitamin D 3 (2000 IU/d) and/or omega-3 fatty acids (1 g/d) in 25,871 adults nationwide. This ancillary study included a subcohort of 771 participants (men ≥50 and women ≥55 years; not taking bone active medications) evaluated at baseline and at 2-year follow-up (89% retention). Total 25(OH)D levels were measured by liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (Quest Diagnostics, San Juan Capistrano, CA, USA). Free 25(OH)D (FVD) levels were measured using the ELISA assay by Future Diagnostics Solutions BV (Wijchen, Netherlands). Primary endpoints were 2-year changes in areal (a) BMD at the spine, hip, and whole body determined by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA). Secondary endpoints were 2-year changes in volumetric (v) BMD and cortical thickness at the radius and tibia assessed by peripheral quantitative computed tomography. Supplemental vitamin D 3 versus placebo had no effect on 2-year changes in aBMD at the spine (0.33% versus 0.17%; p = 0.55), femoral neck (-0.27% versus -0.68%; p = 0.16), total hip (-0.76% versus -0.95%; p = 0.23), or whole body (-0.22% versus -0.15%; p = 0.60), or on measures of bone structure. Effects did not vary by sex, race/ethnicity, body mass index, or 25(OH)D levels. Among participants with baseline FVD levels below the median (<14.2 pmol/L), there was a slight increase in spine aBMD (0.75% versus 0%; p = 0.043) and attenuation in loss of total hip aBMD (-0.42% versus -0.98%; p = 0.044) with vitamin D 3 . Whether baseline FVD levels help to identify those more likely to benefit from supplementation warrants further study.

1994,31340042,"First-in-Human Randomized Study to Assess the Safety and Immunogenicity of an Investigational Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) Vaccine Based on Chimpanzee-Adenovirus-155 Viral Vector-Expressing RSV Fusion, Nucleocapsid, and Antitermination Viral Proteins in Healthy Adults.","BACKGROUND
Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) disease is a major cause of infant morbidity and mortality. This Phase I, randomized, observer-blind, placebo- and active-controlled study evaluated an investigational vaccine against RSV (ChAd155-RSV) using the viral vector chimpanzee-adenovirus-155, encoding RSV fusion (F), nucleocapsid, and transcription antitermination proteins.
METHODS
Healthy 18-45-year-old adults received ChAd155-RSV, a placebo, or an active control (Bexsero) at Days (D) 0 and 30. An escalation from a low dose (5 × 109 viral particles) to a high dose (5 × 1010 viral particles) occurred after the first 16 participants. Endpoints were solicited/unsolicited and serious adverse events (SAEs), biochemical/hematological parameters, cell-mediated immunogenicity by enzyme-linked immunospot, functional neutralizing antibodies, anti RSV-F immunoglobin (Ig) G, and ChAd155 neutralizing antibodies.
RESULTS
There were 7 participants who received the ChAd155-RSV low dose, 31 who received the ChAd155-RSV high dose, 19 who received the placebo, and 15 who received the active control. No dose-related toxicity or attributable SAEs at the 1-year follow-up were observed. The RSV-A neutralizing antibodies geometric mean titer ratios (post/pre-immunization) following a high dose were 2.6 (D30) and 2.3 (D60). The ratio of the fold-rise (D0 to D30) in anti-F IgG over the fold-rise in RSV-A-neutralizing antibodies was 1.01. At D7 after the high dose of the study vaccine, the median frequencies of circulating B-cells secreting anti-F antibodies were 133.3/106 (IgG) and 16.7/106 (IgA) in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs). The median frequency of RSV-F-specific interferon γ-secreting T-cells after a ChAd155-RSV high dose was 108.3/106 PBMCs at D30, with no increase after the second dose.
CONCLUSIONS
In adults previously naturally exposed to RSV, ChAd155-RSV generated increases in specific humoral and cellular immune responses without raising significant safety concerns.

1995,31340872,Women with a low-satiety phenotype show impaired appetite control and greater resistance to weight loss.,"This trial compared weight loss outcomes over 14 weeks in women showing low- or high-satiety responsiveness (low- or high-satiety phenotype (LSP, HSP)) measured by a standardised protocol. Food preferences and energy intake (EI) after low and high energy-density (LED, HED) meals were also assessed. Ninety-six women (n 52 analysed; 41·24 (SD 12·54) years; 34·02 (sd 3·58) kg/m2) engaged in one of two weight loss programmes underwent LED and HED laboratory test days during weeks 3 and 12. Preferences for LED and HED food (Leeds Food Preference Questionnaire) and ad libitum evening meal and snack EI were assessed in response to equienergetic LED and HED breakfasts and lunches. Weekly questionnaires assessed control over eating and ease of adherence to the programme. Satiety quotients based on subjective fullness ratings post LED and HED breakfasts determined LSP (n 26) and HSP (n 26) by tertile splits. Results showed that the LSP lost less weight and had smaller reductions in waist circumference compared with HSP. The LSP showed greater preferences for HED foods, and under HED conditions, consumed more snacks (kJ) compared with HSP. Snack EI did not differ under LED conditions. LSP reported less control over eating and reported more difficulty with programme adherence. In conclusion, low-satiety responsiveness is detrimental for weight loss.

1996,32179871,Gut microbiota in neonates with congenital gastrointestinal surgical conditions: a prospective study.,"BACKGROUND
There is limited information on gut microbiota of neonates with congenital gastrointestinal surgical conditions (CGISCs) available.
METHODS
This study compared stool microbiota and short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) of 37 term infants with CGISCs with 36 term healthy infants (HIs). Two stool samples were collected from each infant: as soon as possible after birth (week 1) and 10-14 days of life (week 2).
RESULTS
Bacterial richness and alpha diversity were comparable between CGISCs and HIs at week 1 and week 2 (all p > 0.05). Beta diversity analysis revealed that at week 1, CGISCs had similar community structures to HIs (p = 0.415). However, by week 2, community structures of CGISCs were significantly different from HIs (p = 0.003). At week 1, there were no significant differences in the relative abundances of genera Bifidobacterium and Bacteroides between CGISCs and HIs. At week 2, the relative abundance of Bifidobacterium was significantly lower in CGISCs (mean percentage 7.21 ± 13.49 vs. 28.96 ± 19.6; p = 0.002). Bacteroides were also less abundant in the CGISC group (mean percentage 0.12 ± 0.49 vs. 6.59 ± 8.62; p = 0.039). Relative abundance of genera Pseudomonas and Escherichia-Shigella were higher in CGISCs. At week 2, stool concentrations of all SCFAs were lower in CGISCs (all p < 0.001).
CONCLUSIONS
During hospitalization, neonates with CGISCs develop gut dysbiosis and deficiency of SCFAs.

1997,31667584,Feasibility of ultrasound-guided lumbar epidural access using paramedian transverse scanning with the needle in-plane: a comparison with paramedian sagittal scanning.,"BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES
The present study was designed to compare the feasibility of ultrasound (US)-guided lumbar epidural access using paramedian sagittal scanning (PMSS) and paramedian transverse scanning (PMTS) approaches.
METHODS
Fifty patients undergoing surgery of the lower extremities were randomly allocated into 2 groups. The patients in PMSS group received PMSS-guided in-plane epidural access, whereas patients in PMTS group received PMTS-guided in-plane epidural access. The US visibility of neuraxial structures and of Tuohy needle during US scout scan, procedure duration, the number of attempts to access epidural space, Tuohy needle puncture depth in the epidural space, and extent of sensory block after spinal block between two groups were compared.
RESULTS
The US visibility of Tuohy needle and neuraxial structures was comparable between two groups. There was an overall decrease in procedure duration in the PMTS group relative to the PMSS group (360 ± 42 vs. 490 ± 38 s). The number of attempts needed to access the epidural space in PMSS group was significantly higher than in PMTS group. Distances between the epidural space and the puncture site in PMSS group and PMTS group showed a significant difference (7.13 ± 0.67 vs. 5.24 ± 0.21 cm). No significant differences in the extent of sensory block after spinal block were observed.
CONCLUSIONS
We found that PMTS approach was superior as a means of achieving epidural access relative to the PMSS approach, since PMTS approach can be conducted more quickly given shorter path of the needle and less times needed for epidural access during this procedure.

1998,31611038,"Effects of tesamorelin on non-alcoholic fatty liver disease in HIV: a randomised, double-blind, multicentre trial.","BACKGROUND
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a substantial cause of comorbidity in people with HIV and there are no proven pharmacological treatments for the disease in this population. We assessed the effects of tesamorelin on liver fat and histology in people with HIV and NAFLD.
METHODS
This randomised, double-blind, multicentre study with identical placebo as a comparator was done in a hospital and a medical research centre in the USA. People with HIV infection and a hepatic fat fraction (HFF) of 5% or more by proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy were eligible. Participants were randomly assigned (1:1) to receive either tesamorelin 2 mg once daily or placebo once daily for 12 months, followed by a 6-month open-label phase during which all participants received tesamorelin 2 mg daily. The randomisation list was prepared by the study statistician using a permuted block algorithm within each stratum with randomly varying block sizes. The primary endpoint was change in HFF between baseline and 12 months. The primary safety endpoint was glucose. Analysis was by intention to treat using all available data. This trial is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, number NCT02196831.
FINDINGS
61 patients were enrolled between Aug 20, 2015, and Jan 16, 2019, of whom 30 received tesamorelin and 30 received placebo. Patients receiving tesamorelin had a greater reduction of HFF than did patients receiving placebo, with an absolute effect size of -4·1% (95% CI -7·6 to -0·7, p=0·018), corresponding to a -37% (95% CI -67 to -7, p=0·016) relative reduction from baseline. After 12 months, 35% of individuals receiving tesamorelin and 4% receiving placebo had a HFF of less than 5% (p=0·0069). Changes in fasting glucose and glycated haemoglobin were not different between groups at 12 months. Individuals in the tesamorelin group experienced more localised injection site complaints than those in the placebo group, though none were judged to be serious.
INTERPRETATION
Tesamorelin might be beneficial in people with HIV and NAFLD. Further studies are needed to determine the long-term effects of tesamorelin on liver histology.

The aim of the study was to evaluate the efficacy of dextrose prolotherapy in the treatment of chronic resistant plantar fasciitis through comparison with a control group.
DESIGN
In this double-blind, randomized, controlled study, the patients were divided into two groups. The prolotherapy group (n = 30) was administered 5 ml of 30% dextrose, 4 ml of saline, and 1 ml of 2% lidocaine mixture (15% dextrose solution) and the control group was given 9 ml of saline and 1 ml of 2% lidocaine mixture twice at a 3-wk interval. During the 15-wk follow-up period, pain intensity was measured using the visual analog scale during activity and at rest. The foot function index was used to measure pain and disability. The plantar fascia thickness was measured by ultrasonography. The measurements were undertaken before treatment and at posttreatment weeks 7 and 15.
RESULTS
Improvements in visual analog scale during activity, at rest, foot function index (all subgroups), and plantar fascia thickness measured at the 7th and 15th weeks were significantly higher in the prolotherapy group compared with the control group (P < 0.001).

2000,31326730,Low-molecular-weight heparin adherence and effects on survival within a randomised phase III lung cancer trial (RASTEN).,"BACKGROUND
Coagulation activation is a hallmark of cancer, and anticoagulants have shown tumour-inhibiting properties. However, recent trials have failed to demonstrate improved survival with low-molecular-weight heparin (LMWH) in cancer populations. This has raised the question of suboptimal adherence as a possible explanation for the lack of benefit. Still, there is no standardised method to directly monitor LMWH in patient plasma. Here, we directly determine LMWH levels in patients using the Heparin Red assay to objectively assess adherence and how this associates with the patient outcome in the RASTEN trial.
METHODS
RASTEN is a multicentre, randomised phase III trial investigating if the addition of LMWH to standard therapy can improve survival in small-cell lung cancer. LMWH was measured in plasma (N = 258) by the Heparin Red assay and compared with the anti-factor Xa (anti-FXa) activity assay.
RESULTS
Both methods could differentiate patients in the LMWH arm from the control arm and patients receiving therapeutic LMWH owing to thrombosis. Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) analysis yielded adherence rates of 85% for anti-FXa and 68% for Heparin Red. No survival benefits were found in the adherent subgroup compared with the control arm (hazard ratio [HR]: 1.26; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.95-1.67; P = 0.105 and HR: 1.19; 95% CI: 0.89-1.60; P = 0.248 for anti-FXa and Heparin Red, respectively). Heparin Red could define patients with high probability of adherence to LMWH treatment, which warrants prospective studies for further validation.

2001,32062324,The detection of knee joint sounds at defined loads by means of vibroarthrography.,"BACKGROUND
Crepitus of the knee may mirror structural and functional changes in the joint during motion. Although the magnitude of these sounds increases with greater cartilage damage, it is unclear whether knee joint sounds also reflect joint loading.
METHODS
Twelve healthy volunteers (mean 26 (SD 3.6) years, 7 females) participated in the randomized-balanced crossover study. Knee joint sounds were recorded (linear sampling, 5512 Hz) by means of two microphones, one placed on the medial tibial plateau and one on the patella. Two activities of daily living (standing up from/sitting down on a bench; descending stairs) and three open kinetic chain knee extension-flexion cycles (passive movement, 10% and 40% loading of the individual one repetition maximum) were performed. Each participant carried out three sets of five repetitions and three sets of 15 steps downwards (stairs), respectively. For data analysis, the mean sound amplitude and the median power frequency for each loading condition were determined. Friedman test and Bonferroni-Holm adjusted post-hoc test were performed to detect differences between conditions.
FINDINGS
We obtained significant differences between joint sound amplitudes for all movements, both measured at the medial tibial plateau (Chi 2 = 20.7, p < 0.001) and at the patella (Chi 2 = 27.6, p < 0.001). We showed a significant difference in the median power frequency of the patella between all movements (Chi 2 = 17.8, p < 0.5).
INTERPRETATION
Overall, the larger the supposed knee joint loading was, the louder was the recorded knee crepitus. Consequently, vibroarthrographically assessed knee joint sounds can differ across knee joint loading conditions.",2020,"We obtained significant differences between joint sound amplitudes for all movements, both measured at the medial tibial plateau","['mean 26 (SD 3.6) years, 7 females', 'Twelve healthy volunteers']","['daily living (standing up from/sitting down on a bench; descending stairs) and three open kinetic chain knee extension-flexion cycles (passive movement, 10% and 40% loading of the individual one repetition maximum']","['median power frequency of the patella', 'Knee joint sounds', 'medial tibial plateau']","[{'cui': 'C0444504', 'cui_str': 'Mean (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C4517694', 'cui_str': '3.6 (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0439234', 'cui_str': 'year (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0086287', 'cui_str': 'Females'}, {'cui': 'C1708335', 'cui_str': 'Healthy Participants'}]","[{'cui': 'C0332173', 'cui_str': 'Daily (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0444796', 'cui_str': 'Standing up (observable entity)'}, {'cui': 'C0560831', 'cui_str': 'Does sit down (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C0205386', 'cui_str': 'Descending (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0175566', 'cui_str': 'Patent (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0022702', 'cui_str': 'Kinetics'}, {'cui': 'C0337112', 'cui_str': 'Chain, device (physical object)'}, {'cui': 'C1963703', 'cui_str': 'Knee region structure (body structure)'}, {'cui': 'C0231448', 'cui_str': 'Extension (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0231452', 'cui_str': 'Flexion, function (observable entity)'}, {'cui': 'C0079991', 'cui_str': 'Passive Range of Motion'}, {'cui': 'C0237401', 'cui_str': 'Individual (person)'}]","[{'cui': 'C2939193', 'cui_str': 'Median (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0376249', 'cui_str': 'Frequency (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0030647', 'cui_str': 'Kneecap'}, {'cui': 'C0022745', 'cui_str': 'Superior Tibiofibular Joint'}, {'cui': 'C1293120', 'cui_str': 'Sounding'}, {'cui': 'C0205098', 'cui_str': 'Medial (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0584640', 'cui_str': 'Tibial plateau structure (body structure)'}]",12.0,0.0353578,"We obtained significant differences between joint sound amplitudes for all movements, both measured at the medial tibial plateau","[{'ForeName': 'Kristin', 'Initials': 'K', 'LastName': 'Kalo', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Sports Medicine, Goethe University Frankfurt am Main, Germany.

2002,32156749,A Randomized Phase II Preoperative Study of Autophagy Inhibition with High-Dose Hydroxychloroquine and Gemcitabine/Nab-Paclitaxel in Pancreatic Cancer Patients.,"PURPOSE
We hypothesized that autophagy inhibition would increase response to chemotherapy in the preoperative setting for patients with pancreatic adenocarcinoma. We performed a randomized controlled trial to assess the autophagy inhibitor hydroxychloroquine in combination with gemcitabine and nab-paclitaxel.
PATIENTS AND METHODS
Participants with potentially resectable tumors were randomized to two cycles of nab-paclitaxel and gemcitabine (PG) alone or with hydroxychloroquine (PGH), followed by resection. The primary endpoint was histopathologic response in the resected specimen. Secondary clinical endpoints included serum CA 19-9 biomarker response and margin negative R0 resection. Exploratory endpoints included markers of autophagy, immune infiltrate, and serum cytokines.
RESULTS
Thirty-four patients in the PGH arm and 30 in the PG arm were evaluable for the primary endpoint. The PGH arm demonstrated statistically improved Evans grade histopathologic responses ( P = 0.00016), compared with control. In patients with elevated CA 19-9, a return to normal was associated with improved overall and recurrence-free survival ( P < 0.0001). There were no differences in serious adverse events between arms and chemotherapy dose number was equivalent. The PGH arm had greater evidence of autophagy inhibition in their resected specimens (increased SQSTM1, P = 0.027, as well as increased immune cell tumor infiltration, P = 0.033). Overall survival ( P = 0.59) and relapse-free survival ( P = 0.55) did not differ between the two arms.
CONCLUSIONS
The addition of hydroxychloroquine to preoperative gemcitabine and nab-paclitaxel chemotherapy in patients with resectable pancreatic adenocarcinoma resulted in greater pathologic tumor response, improved serum biomarker response, and evidence of autophagy inhibition and immune activity.",2020,"In patients with elevated CA 19-9, a return to normal was associated with improved overall and recurrence-free survival (P < 0.0001).","['patients with resectable pancreatic adenocarcinoma', 'patients with pancreatic adenocarcinoma', 'Pancreatic Cancer Patients', 'Participants with potentially resectable tumors']","['nab-paclitaxel and gemcitabine (PG) alone or with hydroxychloroquine (PGH', 'hydroxychloroquine to preoperative gemcitabine and nab-paclitaxel chemotherapy', 'gemcitabine and nab-paclitaxel', 'Hydroxychloroquine and Gemcitabine/Nab-Paclitaxel', 'autophagy inhibitor hydroxychloroquine', 'Autophagy Inhibition']","['pathological tumor response, improved serum biomarker response, and evidence of autophagy inhibition and immune activity', 'overall and recurrence-free survival', 'serious adverse events', 'markers of autophagy, immune infiltrate, and serum cytokines', 'CA 19-9 serum biomarker response and margin negative R0 resection', 'RFS', 'autophagy inhibition', 'histopathologic response', 'Evans grade histopathologic responses']","[{'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C0281361', 'cui_str': 'Adenocarcinoma of pancreas'}, {'cui': 'C0346647', 'cui_str': 'Cancer of Pancreas'}, {'cui': 'C0027651', 'cui_str': 'Neoplasia'}]","[{'cui': 'C1527223', 'cui_str': '130-nm albumin-bound paclitaxel'}, {'cui': 'C0045093', 'cui_str': 'gemcitabine'}, {'cui': 'C0020336', 'cui_str': 'Hydroxychloroquine'}, {'cui': 'C0072288', 'cui_str': 'Prostaglandin H2'}, {'cui': 'C0445204', 'cui_str': 'Preoperative (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0013217', 'cui_str': 'pharmacotherapy'}, {'cui': 'C0004391', 'cui_str': 'Cellular Autophagies'}, {'cui': 'C0243077', 'cui_str': 'inhibitors'}, {'cui': 'C0021469', 'cui_str': 'Inhibition, function (observable entity)'}]","[{'cui': 'C1521733', 'cui_str': 'Pathologic (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0027651', 'cui_str': 'Neoplasia'}, {'cui': 'C0184511', 'cui_str': 'Improved (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0229671', 'cui_str': 'Serum'}, {'cui': 'C0005516', 'cui_str': 'Biological Markers'}, {'cui': 'C0332120', 'cui_str': 'Evidence of (contextual qualifier) (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0004391', 'cui_str': 'Cellular Autophagies'}, {'cui': 'C0021469', 'cui_str': 'Inhibition, function (observable entity)'}, {'cui': 'C0439662', 'cui_str': 'Immune (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0441655', 'cui_str': 'Activity (observable entity)'}, {'cui': 'C0282416', 'cui_str': 'Overall'}, {'cui': 'C2919733', 'cui_str': 'Surviving free of recurrence of neoplastic disease (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C0877248', 'cui_str': 'Adverse event'}, {'cui': 'C0332448', 'cui_str': 'Tissue infiltration'}, {'cui': 'C0079189', 'cui_str': 'Cytokine (substance)'}, {'cui': 'C0201551', 'cui_str': 'CA 199 measurement'}, {'cui': 'C0205284', 'cui_str': 'Marginal (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0205160', 'cui_str': 'Negative (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0728940', 'cui_str': 'Surgical removal -

2003,32036693,"Secretin effects on gastric functions, hormones and symptoms in functional dyspepsia and health: randomized crossover trial.","Abnormal gastric accommodation (GA) and gastric emptying contribute to pathophysiology in functional dyspepsia (FD). Secretin is a key regulator of GA in animal studies. Our aim was to study the effects of secretin on gastric motility, satiation, postprandial symptoms, and key hormones. We performed two double-blind, randomized, saline-controlled crossover trials in 10 healthy volunteers and 10 patients with FD by Rome IV criteria. We used measured GA (by validated SPECT method) after a 111 In radiolabeled Ensure 300-mL meal and quantified gastric emptying for 30 min by scintigraphy. Satiation was measured by volume to fullness (VTF) and maximum tolerated volume (MTV) on an Ensure nutrient drink test and postprandial symptoms 30 min post-MTV. Fasting and postprandial GLP-1, GIP, and HPP were measured. The ages and sex distribution of healthy controls and patients with FD were similar. Compared with placebo, secretin delayed gastric emptying at 30 min in both health [-11% (-16, -4), P = 0.004]; and FD [-8% (-9, 0), P = 0.03]. Satiation (VTF and MTV), GA, and plasma levels of GLP-1, GIP, and HPP did not differ between treatment arms in health or FD. On ANCOVA analysis (adjusting for age and sex), secretin did not consistently increase postprandial symptoms in health or FD. Secretin delayed gastric emptying in both health and FD without significantly altering GA, VTF, or MTV or selected hormones. Thus, secretin receptor activation may provide a novel therapeutic mechanism for patients with FD and rapid gastric emptying. NEW & NOTEWORTHY The naturally occurring hormone secretin retards gastric emptying of solids without deleteriously affecting gastric accommodation, satiation, other upper gastrointestinal hormones, or postprandial symptoms. Given these findings, a subset of patients with rapid gastric emptying (e.g., the estimated 20% of patients with functional dyspepsia) could be candidates for treatments that stimulate a secretin receptor such as sacubitril, which inhibits neprilysin, an enzyme that degrades secretin.",2020,"Compared to placebo, secretin delayed gastric emptying at 30 minutes in both health [-11% (-16, -4); P=0.004] and FD [-8% (-9, 0); P=0.03].","['patients with FD and rapid gastric emptying', '10 healthy volunteers and 10 patients with FD by Rome IV criteria', 'DYSPEPSIA AND HEALTH', 'functional dyspepsia (FD']","['placebo', 'Secretin', 'secretin']","['postprandial symptoms in health or FD', 'Satiation (VTF and MTV), GA as well as plasma levels of GLP1, GIP and HPP', 'Abnormal gastric accommodation (GA) and gastric emptying', 'Fasting and postprandial GLP-1, GIP and HPP', 'secretin delayed gastric emptying', 'Secretin delayed gastric emptying', 'volume to fullness (VTF) and maximum tolerated volume (MTV', 'gastric motility, satiation, postprandial symptoms and key hormones']","[{'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C0232584', 'cui_str': 'Rapid gastric emptying (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C1708335', 'cui_str': 'Healthy Participants'}, {'cui': 'C0035831', 'cui_str': 'Rome'}, {'cui': 'C0243161', 'cui_str': 'criteria'}, {'cui': 'C0013395', 'cui_str': 'Indigestion'}, {'cui': 'C0018684', 'cui_str': 'Health'}, {'cui': 'C0267167', 'cui_str': 'Nonulcer dyspepsia (disorder)'}]","[{'cui': 'C1696465', 'cui_str': 'placebo'}, {'cui': 'C0036534', 'cui_str': 'Secretin'}]","[{'cui': 'C0376674', 'cui_str': 'Postcibal Period'}, {'cui': 'C0683368', 'cui_str': 'symptoms'}, {'cui': 'C0018684', 'cui_str': 'Health'}, {'cui': 'C0036239', 'cui_str': 'Satiations'}, {'cui': 'C0032105', 'cui_str': 'Blood Plasma'}, {'cui': 'C0456079', 'cui_str': 'Level (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C1702020', 'cui_str': '37-epsilon-palmitoyl-Lys-GIP'}, {'cui': 'C0068293', 'cui_str': 'N-succinimidyl-3-(4-hydroxyphenyl)propionate'}, {'cui': 'C0205161', 'cui_str': 'Abnormal (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C1704242', 'cui_str': 'Gastric (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0000936', 'cui_str': 'Ocular Distance Accommodation'}, {'cui': 'C0017127', 'cui_str': 'Gastric Emptyings'}, {'cui': 'C0456962', 'cui_str': 'Rapidly'}, {'cui': 'C0061355', 'cui_str': 'Glucagon-Like Peptide 1'}, {'cui': 'C0036534', 'cui_str': 'Secretin'}, {'cui': 'C0740411', 'cui_str': 'Delayed gastric emptying (disorder)'}, {'cui': 'C0449468', 'cui_str': 'Volume (property) (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0439650', 'cui_str': 'Fullness (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0232572', 'cui_str': 'Gastric motility, function (observable entity)'}, {'cui': 'C0019932', 'cui_str': 'Hormones'}]",10.0,0.0959755,"Compared to placebo, secretin delayed gastric emptying at 30 minutes in both health [-11% (-16, -4); P=0.004] and FD [-8% (-9, 0); P=0.03].","[{'ForeName': 'Justin', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Brandler', 'Affiliation': 'Clinical Enteric Neuroscience Translational and Epidemiological Research (CENTER), Division of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, Mayo Clinic, Rochester, Minnesota.'}, {'ForeName': 'Laurence J', 'Initials': 'LJ', 'LastName': 'Miller', 'Affiliation': 'Mayo Clinic, Scottsdale, Arizona.'}, {'ForeName': 'Xiao Jing', 'Initials': 'XJ', 'LastName': 'Wang', 'Affiliation': 'Clinical Enteric Neuroscience Translational and Epidemiological Research (CENTER), Division of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, Mayo Clinic, Rochester, Minnesota.'}, {'ForeName': 'Duane', 'Initials': 'D', 'LastName': 'Burton', 'Affiliation': 'Clinical Enteric Neuroscience Translational and Epidemiological Research (CENTER), Division of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, Mayo Clinic, Rochester, Minnesota.'}, {'ForeName': 'Irene', 'Initials': 'I', 'LastName': 'Busciglio', 'Affiliation': 'Clinical Enteric Neuroscience Translational and Epidemiological Research (CENTER), Division of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, Mayo Clinic, Rochester, Minnesota.'}, {'ForeName': 'Kayla', 'Initials': 'K', 'LastName': 'Arndt', 'Affiliation': 'Clinical Enteric Neuroscience Translational and Epidemiological Research (CENTER), Division of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, Mayo Clinic, Rochester, Minnesota.'}, {'ForeName': 'William S', 'Initials': 'WS', 'LastName': 'Harmsen', 'Affiliation': 'Clinical Enteric Neuroscience Translational and Epidemiological Research (CENTER), Division of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, Mayo Clinic, Rochester, Minnesota.'}, {'ForeName': 'Michael', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Camilleri', 'Affiliation': 'Clinical Enteric Neuroscience Translational and Epidemiological Research (CENTER), Division of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, Mayo Clinic, Rochester, Minnesota.'}]",American journal of physiology.

2004,31973744,"Improving risk perception and uptake of voluntary medical male circumcision with peer-education sessions and incentives, in Manicaland, East Zimbabwe: study protocol for a pilot randomised trial.","BACKGROUND
Voluntary medical male circumcision (VMMC) is a key component of combination HIV-prevention programmes. Several high-HIV-prevalence countries in sub-Saharan Africa, including Zimbabwe, are looking to scale up VMMC activities. There is limited evidence on how a combination of social learning from peer education by a role model with different behavioural incentives influences demand for VMMC in such settings.
METHODS/DESIGN
This matched-cluster randomised controlled trial with 1740 participants will compare two behavioural incentives against a control with no intervention. In the intervention clusters, participants will participate in an education session delivered by a circumcised young male (""role model"") on the risks of HIV infection and the benefits from medical male circumcision. All participants will receive contributions towards transport costs to access medical male circumcision at participating clinics. Via blocked randomisation, in the intervention clusters participants will be randomly assigned to receive one of two types of incentives - fixed cash payment or lottery payment - both conditional on undergoing surgical VMMC. In two sites, a community-led intervention will also be implemented to address social obstacles and to increase support from peers, families and social structures. Baseline measures of endpoints will be gathered in surveys. Follow-up assessment at 6 months will include self-reported uptake of VMMC triangulated with clinic data.
DISCUSSION
This is the first trial to pilot-test social learning to improve risk perception and self-efficacy and to address the fear of pain associated with VMMC and possible present-biased preferences with front-loaded compensations as well as fixed or lottery-based cash payments. This study will generate important knowledge to inform HIV-prevention policies about the effectiveness of behavioural interventions and incentives, which could be easily scaled-up.

2005,31080095,Diagnostic accuracy of whole-body MRI versus standard imaging pathways for metastatic disease in newly diagnosed colorectal cancer: the prospective Streamline C trial.,"BACKGROUND
Whole-body MRI (WB-MRI) could be an alternative to multimodality staging of colorectal cancer, but its diagnostic accuracy, effect on staging times, number of tests needed, cost, and effect on treatment decisions are unknown. We aimed to prospectively compare the diagnostic accuracy and efficiency of WB-MRI-based staging pathways with standard pathways in colorectal cancer.
METHODS
The Streamline C trial was a prospective, multicentre trial done in 16 hospitals in England. Eligible patients were 18 years or older, with newly diagnosed colorectal cancer. Exclusion criteria were severe systemic disease, pregnancy, contraindications to MRI, or polyp cancer. Patients underwent WB-MRI, the result of which was withheld until standard staging investigations were complete and the first treatment decision made. The multidisciplinary team recorded its treatment decision based on standard investigations, then on the WB-MRI staging pathway (WB-MRI plus additional tests generated), and finally on all tests. The primary outcome was difference in per-patient sensitivity for metastases between standard and WB-MRI staging pathways against a consensus reference standard at 12 months, in the per-protocol population. Secondary outcomes were difference in per-patient specificity for metastatic disease detection between standard and WB-MRI staging pathways, differences in treatment decisions, staging efficiency (time taken, test number, and costs), and per-organ sensitivity and specificity for metastases and per-patient agreement for local T and N stage. This trial is registered with the International Standard Randomised Controlled Trial registry, number ISRCTN43958015, and is complete.
FINDINGS
Between March 26, 2013, and Aug 19, 2016, 1020 patients were screened for eligibility. 370 patients were recruited, 299 of whom completed the trial; 68 (23%) had metastasis at baseline. Pathway sensitivity was 67% (95% CI 56 to 78) for WB-MRI and 63% (51 to 74) for standard pathways, a difference in sensitivity of 4% (-5 to 13, p=0·51). No adverse events related to imaging were reported. Specificity did not differ between WB-MRI (95% [95% CI 92-97]) and standard pathways (93% [90-96], p=0·48). Agreement with the multidisciplinary team's final treatment decision was 96% for WB-MRI and 95% for the standard pathway. Time to complete staging was shorter for WB-MRI (median, 8 days [IQR 6-9]) than for the standard pathway (13 days [11-15]); a 5-day (3-7) difference. WB-MRI required fewer tests (median, one [95% CI 1 to 1]) than did standard pathways (two [2 to 2]), a difference of one (1 to 1). Mean per-patient staging costs were £216 (95% CI 211-221) for WB-MRI and £285 (260-310) for standard pathways.
INTERPRETATION
WB-MRI staging pathways have similar accuracy to standard pathways and reduce the number of tests needed, staging time, and cost.

2006,31147363,Effects of yoga on well-being and healthy ageing: study protocol for a randomised controlled trial (FitForAge).,"INTRODUCTION
Due to ageing populations worldwide, the burden of disability is increasing. It is therefore important to develop interventions that improve healthy ageing, reduce disability onset and enhance life quality. Physical activity can promote healthy ageing and help maintain independence, yet many older adults are inactive. Yoga is a form of physical activity that aims to improve health and may be particularly suitable for older adults. Research indicates positive effects of yoga on several health-related outcomes; however, empirical studies examining the benefits of yoga on well-being among the elderly remain scarce. This study protocol reports the methodology for a 12-week yoga programme aimed to improve health and well-being among physically inactive older adults.
METHODS AND ANALYSIS
Three group parallel, single-blind randomised controlled trial. Two comparison groups are included: aerobic exercise and a non-active wait-list control. In total, 180 participants aged 65-85 years will be recruited. Assessments will be performed at baseline and postintervention (12-week follow-up). The primary outcome is subjective well-being. Secondary outcomes include physical activity/sedentary behaviour, mobility/fall risk, cognition, depression, anxiety, mood, stress, pain, sleep quality, social support and cardiometabolic risk factors. Data will be analysed using intention-to-treat analyses, with mixed linear modelling.
ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION
This study is approved by the Ethical Review Board in Stockholm (2017/1862-31/2). All participants must voluntarily agree to participate and are free to withdraw from the study at any point. Written informed consent will be obtained from each participant prior to inclusion. Results will be available through research articles and conferences. A summary of key results will be publicly available through newspaper articles.

2007,32107265,Effectiveness of a clinic-based randomized controlled intervention for type 2 diabetes management: an innovative model of intensified diabetes management in Mainland China (C-IDM study).,"OBJECTIVES
Highly efficient diabetes management programs are needed for tackling diabetes in China. This study aimed to assess the effectiveness of a clinic-based intensified diabetes management model (C-IDM) in Mainland China.
RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS
A 2-year clinic-based randomized controlled trial was conducted among patients with type 2 diabetes in Nanjing, China. The C-IDM intervention components comprised four domains (disease targeting management, express referral channel, expert visit, patients' self-management) and an integrated running system (disease control centers, general hospitals and local clinics). Control group participants received their usual care, while intervention participants received both the C-IDM package and the usual services. The primary outcome variable was change of hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c). Mixed-effects models were used to compute effect estimates and 95% CI with consideration of both individual and cluster-level confounders.
RESULTS
Overall, 1095 of 1143 participants were assessed at study completion. The mean change in HbA1c was significantly greater in the intervention group than in the control group (mean difference (MD)=-0.57, 95% CI -0.79 to -0.36). Similar results were observed for change in body mass index (MD=-0.29, 95% CI -0.49 to -0.10). Participants in the intervention group were more likely to achieve normal HbA1c and body weight compared with their counterparts in control group after adjusting for potentially confounding variables (adjusted OR=1.94, 95% CI 1.35 to 2.81 and 1.79, 95% CI 1.13 to 2.85, respectively).
CONCLUSIONS
The C-IDM model is feasible and effective in large-scale management of patients with type 2 diabetes in China. It has public health implications for tackling the burden of diabetes in China.

To investigate whether palonosetron is better than granisetron in preventing chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV) in a three-drug combination with dexamethasone and fosaprepitant (Fos) in patients with breast cancer who are placed on anthracycline and cyclophosphamide (AC-based regimen).
PATIENTS AND METHODS
Chemo-naive women with primary breast cancer were randomly administered either palonosetron 0.75 mg (day 1) or granisetron 1 mg (day 1) combined with dexamethasone (12 mg at day 1, 8 mg at day 2 and day 3) and Fos 150 mg (day 1) before receiving AC-based regimen in a double-blind study. The primary endpoint was the complete response (CR) rate of emesis in cycle 1 in the delayed phase. This was defined as neither vomiting nor rescue drug usage for emesis at >24-120 hours after chemotherapy. Secondary endpoints were the CR in the acute/overall phase (0-24/0-120 hours, respectively, after chemotherapy), no nausea and vomiting, Patient-Reported Outcomes version of the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (PRO-CTCAE), and safety.
RESULTS
From December 2012 to October 2014, 326 patients were treated and evaluated (164/162 evaluable patients in granisetron/palonosetron arm, respectively). The CR during the delayed phase was 60.4% in the granisetron regimen and 62.3% in the palonosetron regimen. The CR during acute phase (73.2% vs 75.9%, respectively) and the CR during overall phase (54.9% in both regimens) were very identical. A significantly higher number of patients in the palonosetron arm were free from nausea during the delayed phase (28% vs 40.1%; P = .029). Adverse events were also identical, although infusion site reactions (ISR) were higher (20.3%-23.3%) than preceding studies in both regimens.
CONCLUSION
In combination with dexamethasone and Fos, this study suggests that palonosetron is not better than granisetron in chemo-naive patients with primary breast cancer receiving AC-based regimen. Administration of Fos in peripheral veins after AC-based regimen increased ISR.",2020,"Adverse events were also identical, although infusion site reactions (ISR) were higher (20.3%-23.3%) than preceding studies in both regimens.

2010,31644499,Male Partner Linkage to Clinic-Based Services for Sexually Transmitted Infections and Human Immunodeficiency Virus Services Following Couple Home-Based Education and Testing.,"BACKGROUND
Home-based human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) testing and education has increased HIV test uptake and access to health services among men. We studied how a home-based antenatal intervention influenced male partner utilization of clinic-based HIV and sexually transmitted infection (STI) services, linkage to HIV care and medical circumcision.
METHODS
We conducted a secondary analysis within a randomized controlled trial of pregnant women attending antenatal care in Kenya. Women and their male partners received either a home-based couple intervention or an invitation letter for clinic-based couple HIV testing. The home-based intervention included education on STI symptoms, STI and HIV treatment and male circumcision for HIV prevention. Male self-reported outcomes were compared using relative risks at 6 months postpartum.
RESULTS
Among 525 women, we reached 487 (93%) of their male partners; 247 men in the intervention arm and 240 men in the control arm. Men who received the intervention were more likely to report an STI consultation (n = 47 vs. 16; relative risk, 1.59; 95% confidence interval, 1.33-1.89). Among 23 men with newly diagnosed HIV, linkage to HIV care was reported by 4 of 15 in the intervention (3 men had missing linkage data) and 3 of 5 men in the control arms (relative risk, 0.66; 95% confidence interval, 0.34-1.29). Although the intervention identified 3 times more men with new HIV infection, the study lacked power to find significant differences in linkage to HIV care. Few eligible men sought medical circumcision (4 of 72 intervention and 2 of 88 control).
CONCLUSIONS
Home-based couple education and testing increased STI consultations among male partners of pregnant women, but appeared insufficient to overcome the barriers involved in linkage to HIV care and medical circumcision.",2019,"Men who received the intervention were more likely to report an STI consultation (n = 47 vs. 16; relative risk, 1.59; 95% confidence interval, 1.33-1.89).","['23 men with newly diagnosed HIV', 'pregnant women attending antenatal care in Kenya', 'Women and their male partners', 'Male Partner Linkage to Clinic-Based Services for Sexually Transmitted Infections and Human Immunodeficiency Virus Services', 'Few eligible men sought medical circumcision (4 of 72 intervention and 2 of 88 control', 'male partners of pregnant women', '525 women, we reached 487 (93%) of their male partners; 247 men in the intervention arm and 240 men in the control arm', 'men']","['home-based couple intervention or an invitation letter for clinic-based couple HIV testing', 'home-based antenatal intervention']","['male partner utilization of clinic-based HIV and sexually transmitted infection (STI) services', 'likely to report an STI consultation', 'STI consultations']","[{'cui': 'C0086418', 'cui_str': 'Humans'}, {'cui': 'C0019682', 'cui_str': 'HTLV-III'}, {'cui': 'C0033011', 'cui_str': 'Pregnant Women'}, {'cui': 'C1456498', 'cui_str': 'Attended'}, {'cui': 'C0033052', 'cui_str': 'Antenatal Care'}, {'cui': 'C0022558', 'cui_str': 'Republic of Kenya'}, {'cui': 'C0043210', 'cui_str': 'Girls'}, {'cui': 'C0682323', 'cui_str': 'Companion'}, {'cui': 'C0086582', 'cui_str': 'Males'}, {'cui': 'C0442592', 'cui_str': 'Clinic (environment)'}, {'cui': 'C0178499', 'cui_str': 'Base'}, {'cui': 'C0557854', 'cui_str': 'Services (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0036916', 'cui_str': 'STDs'}, {'cui': 'C0205476', 'cui_str': 'Medical (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0403327', 'cui_str': 'Ritual circumcision (procedure)'}, {'cui': 'C2587213', 'cui_str': 'Controlled (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0047247', 'cui_str': 'ANDS'}, {'cui': 'C4319600', 'cui_str': '240 (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C1140618', 'cui_str': 'Membrum superius'}]","[{'cui': 'C0442519', 'cui_str': 'Domestic (environment)'}, {'cui': 'C0178499', 'cui_str': 'Base'}, {'cui': 'C0010222', 'cui_str': 'Couples'}, {'cui': 'C1096774', 'cui_str': 'Letter'}, {'cui': 'C0442592', 'cui_str': 'Clinic (environment)'}, {'cui': 'C0019682', 'cui_str': 'HTLV-III'}, {'cui': 'C2828394', 'cui_str': 'Antenatal (qualifier value)'}]","[{'cui': 'C0086582', 'cui_str': 'Males'}, {'cui': 'C0682323', 'cui_str': 'Companion'}, {'cui': 'C0042153', 'cui_str': 'use'}, {'cui': 'C0442592', 'cui_str': 'Clinic (environment)'}, {'cui': 'C0178499', 'cui_str': 'Base'}, {'cui': 'C0019682', 'cui_str': 'HTLV-III'}, {'cui': 'C0036916', 'cui_str': 'STDs'}, {'cui': 'C0557854', 'cui_str': 'Services (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0332148', 'cui_str': 'Probable diagnosis (contextual qualifier) (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0684224', 'cui_str': 'Report'}, {'cui': 'C0009818', 'cui_str': 'Consultation'}]",525.0,0.0621027,"Men who received the intervention were more likely to report an STI consultation (n = 47 vs. 16; relative risk, 1.59; 95% confidence interval, 1.33-1.89).","[{'ForeName': 'Jennifer', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Mark', 'Affiliation': 'From the Department of Epidemiology, University of Washington, Seattle, WA.'}, {'ForeName': 'John', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Kinuthia', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Research and Programs.'}, {'ForeName': 'Alfred O', 'Initials': 'AO', 'LastName': 'Osoti', 'Affiliation': 'From the Department of Epidemiology, University of Washington, Seattle, WA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Molly A', 'Initials': 'MA', 'LastName': 'Gone', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, University of Nairobi.'}, {'ForeName': 'Victor', 'Initials': 'V', 'LastName': 'Asila', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, University of Nairobi.'}, {'ForeName': 'Daisy', 'Initials': 'D', 'LastName': 'Krakowiak', 'Affiliation': 'From the Department of Epidemiology, University of Washington, Seattle, WA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Monisha', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Sharma', 'Affiliation': 'From the Department of Epidemiology, University of Washington, Seattle, WA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Saloni', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Parikh', 'Affiliation': 'Computer Science and Engineering and Public Health.'}, {'ForeName': 'Quy T', 'Initials': 'QT', 'LastName': 'Ton', 'Affiliation': 'Allina Health, Minneapolis, MN.'}, {'ForeName': 'Barbra A', 'Initials': 'BA', 'LastName': 'Richardson', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Biostatistics.'}, {'ForeName': 'Carey', 'Initials': 'C', 'LastName': 'Farquhar', 'Affiliation': 'From the Department of Epidemiology, University of Washington, Seattle, WA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Alison C', 'Initials': 'AC', 'LastName': 'Roxby', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Medicine, University of Washington, Seattle, WA.'}]",Sexually transmitted diseases,['10.1097/OLQ.0000000000001057']
2011,31825940,Hypertension with Hyperhomocysteinemia Increases the Risk of Early Cognitive Impairment after First-Ever Ischemic Stroke.,"BACKGROUND
Hypertension and hyperhomocysteinemia (HHcy) are independent risk factors of stroke and are associated with each other. Although evidence suggests that they are related to cognitive impairment, the relationship between hypertension accompanied with HHcy and poststroke cognitive impairment (PSCI) is unclear.
OBJECTIVE
To define the relationship between hypertension with HHcy and early cognitive impairment after acute cerebral infarction.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
Our study enrolled 232 patients with acute first-ever ischemic stroke. Patients were assigned to 3 groups by blood pressure and homocysteine (Hcy) levels: hypertension with HHcy, simple hypertension, or control. Cognition was assessed by the Montreal cognitive assessment at admission and at 3- and 6-month follow-ups.
RESULTS
The hypertension with HHcy group exhibited the highest incidence of early cognitive impairment (simple hypertension: p = 0.000; control: p = 0.000). This group also had lower visual space/executive scores than the simple hypertension group (p = 0.000) and lower delayed recall scores than the control group (p = 0.011). Multivariate analysis showed that hypertension with HHcy (OR 7.797; 95% CI 2.917-20.843; p = 0.000), the level of serum Hcy (OR 1.063; 95% CI 1.109-1.109; p = 0.005), education years (OR 0.797; 95% CI 0.722-0.880; p = 0.000), and Fazekas scale of leukoaraiosis (OR 1.648; 95% CI 1.239-2.191; p = 0.001) were independent influencing factors of early PSCI; however, simple hypertension (OR 1.183, 95% CI 0.208-6.737; p = 0.850) and simple HHcy (OR 1.112, 95% CI 0.181-6.810; p = 0.909) were not.
CONCLUSION
Patients with both hypertension and HHcy are at an increased risk of early cognitive impairment after acute first-ever ischemic stroke.",2019,The hypertension with HHcy group exhibited the highest incidence of early cognitive impairment (simple hypertension: p = 0.000; control: p = 0.000).,['232 patients with acute first-ever ischemic stroke'],[],"['early cognitive impairment', 'risk of early cognitive impairment', 'blood pressure and homocysteine (Hcy) levels: hypertension with HHcy, simple hypertension, or control', 'Risk of Early Cognitive Impairment', 'delayed recall scores', 'Fazekas scale of leukoaraiosis', 'lower visual space/executive scores', 'simple HHcy', 'level of serum Hcy', 'simple hypertension']","[{'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C0948008', 'cui_str': 'Ischemic stroke (disorder)'}]",[],"[{'cui': 'C1279919', 'cui_str': 'Early (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0338656', 'cui_str': 'Cognitive Dysfunction'}, {'cui': 'C0035647', 'cui_str': 'Risk'}, {'cui': 'C0005823', 'cui_str': 'Blood Pressure'}, {'cui': 'C2242817', 'cui_str': 'Homocysteine measurement (procedure)'}, {'cui': 'C2363982', 'cui_str': 'Hypertension (SMQ)'}, {'cui': 'C0205352', 'cui_str': 'Simple (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C2587213', 'cui_str': 'Controlled (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0449820', 'cui_str': 'Scores (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0222045'}, {'cui': 'C0948163', 'cui_str': 'Leukoaraiosis'}, {'cui': 'C0205251', 'cui_str': 'Low (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0234621', 'cui_str': 'Visual (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0282173', 'cui_str': 'Space (Astronomy)'}, {'cui': 'C0456079', 'cui_str': 'Level (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0229671', 'cui_str': 'Serum'}]",232.0,0.0442313,The hypertension with HHcy group exhibited the highest incidence of early cognitive impairment (simple hypertension: p = 0.000; control: p = 0.000).,"[{'ForeName': 'Zhen-Hui', 'Initials': 'ZH', 'LastName': 'Lu', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Neurology, Second Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University, Suzhou, China.'}, {'ForeName': 'Jia', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Li', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Neurology, Second Affiliated Hospital of Nantong University, Nantong, China.'}, {'ForeName': 'Xin-Ling', 'Initials': 'XL', 'LastName': 'Li', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Neurology, Second Affiliated Hospital of Nantong University, Nantong, China.'}, {'ForeName': 'Mei', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Ding', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Neurology, Second Affiliated Hospital of Nantong University, Nantong, China.'}, {'ForeName': 'Cheng-Jie', 'Initials': 'CJ', 'LastName': 'Mao', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Neurology, Second Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University, Suzhou, China.'}, {'ForeName': 'Xiang-Yang', 'Initials': 'XY', 'LastName': 'Zhu', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Neurology, Second Affiliated Hospital of Nantong University, Nantong, China.'}, {'ForeName': 'Chun-Feng', 'Initials': 'CF', 'LastName': 'Liu', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Neurology, Second Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University, Suzhou, China, liuchunfeng@suda.edu.cn.'}]",European neurology,['10.1159/000504704']

Cases were randomized into two groups, Group A (Ropivacaine 0.1%) or Group B (Lignocaine 1.0%). The pain experienced by the patients during the surgery, mydriasis, post-op inflammation and endothelial cell change at six weeks after the procedure was evaluated. Surgeon's feedback was recorded to evaluate the cooperation of the patient during surgery.
Results
A total of 210 subjects were screened and 184 were randomized to have 92 subjects in each group. There was no statistically significant difference seen on comparing Group A and B with respect to Age (P = 0.05), painful surgical steps (P = 0.85), visual analog scale scores (P = 0.65), surgeon's score (P = 0.11), postoperative inflammation (P = 0.90) and average ultrasound time during phacoemulsification (P = 0.10). Subjects in Group A fared better when compared to Group B with respect to endothelial cell loss (P = 0.0008), and augmentation in mydriasis (P < 0.001).
Conclusion
Intracameral Ropivacaine and Lignocaine, both are equally effective in providing analgesia during phacoemulsification. However, intracameral Ropivacaine is superior to Lignocaine with regards to corneal endothelial cell safety, and augmenting mydriasis.",2020,"There was no statistically significant difference seen on comparing Group A and B with respect to Age (P = 0.05), painful surgical steps (P = 0.85), visual analog scale scores (P = 0.65), surgeon's score (P = 0.11), postoperative inflammation (P = 0.90) and average ultrasound time during phacoemulsification (P = 0.10).","['subjects undergoing phacoemulsification under augmented topical anesthesia', 'A total of 210 subjects were screened and 184 were randomized to have 92 subjects in each group']","['intracameral ropivacaine vs. lignocaine', 'Ropivacaine', 'Lignocaine', 'topical anesthesia', 'phacoemulsification with posterior chamber intraocular lens implantation', 'intracameral Ropivacaine', 'Group A (Ropivacaine 0.1%) or Group B (Lignocaine']","['efficacy and safety', 'visual analog scale scores', 'corneal endothelial cell safety', 'average ultrasound time', 'augmentation in mydriasis', 'painful surgical steps', 'endothelial cell loss', 'postoperative inflammation', ""surgeon's score""]","[{'cui': 'C2193446', 'cui_str': 'Phacoemulsification'}, {'cui': 'C0205217', 'cui_str': 'Increased (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0332237', 'cui_str': 'Topical (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0002903', 'cui_str': 'Anesthesia'}, {'cui': 'C0439810', 'cui_str': 'Total (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C4319559', 'cui_str': '210'}, {'cui': 'C1305399', 'cui_str': 'Screening intent'}, {'cui': 'C4517616', 'cui_str': 'One hundred and eighty-four'}, {'cui': 'C0439745', 'cui_str': 'Grouped (qualifier value)'}]","[{'cui': 'C0073571', 'cui_str': 'ropivacaine'}, {'cui': 'C0023660', 'cui_str': 'Lidocaine'}, {'cui': 'C0332237', 'cui_str': 'Topical (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0002903', 'cui_str': 'Anesthesia'}, {'cui': 'C2193446', 'cui_str': 'Phacoemulsification'}, {'cui': 'C1298763', 'cui_str': 'Implantation of posterior chamber intraocular lens'}, {'cui': 'C0441835', 'cui_str': 'Group A (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C4517420', 'cui_str': 'Zero point one'}, {'cui': 'C0441836', 'cui_str': 'Group B (qualifier value)'}]","[{'cui': 'C0036043', 'cui_str': 'Safety'}, {'cui': 'C2960751', 'cui_str': 'Visual analog scale score'}, {'cui': 'C0225336', 'cui_str': 'Endothelial Cells'}, {'cui': 'C0220934', 'cui_str': 'ultrasound'}, {'cui': 'C1632851', 'cui_str': 'Times'}, {'cui': 'C1293122', 'cui_str': 'Augmentation procedure'}, {'cui': 'C0026961', 'cui_str': 'Mydriasis'}, {'cui': 'C0030193', 'cui_str': 'Pain'}, {'cui': 'C0543467', 'cui_str': 'Operative Procedures'}, {'cui': 'C1261552', 'cui_str': 'Step'}, {'cui': 'C0032790', 'cui_str': 'Postoperative Period'}, {'cui': 'C0021368', 'cui_str': 'Inflammation'}, {'cui': 'C0582175', 'cui_str': 'Surgeon (occupation)'}, {'cui': 'C0449820', 'cui_str': 'Scores (qualifier value)'}]",210.0,0.040708,"There was no statistically significant difference seen on comparing Group A and B with respect to Age (P = 0.05), painful surgical steps (P = 0.85), visual analog scale scores (P = 0.65), surgeon's score (P = 0.11), postoperative inflammation (P = 0.90) and average ultrasound time during phacoemulsification (P = 0.10).","[{'ForeName': 'Arun K', 'Initials': 'AK', 'LastName': 'Sharma', 'Affiliation': ""Department of Ophthalmology, King George's Medical University, Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh, India.""}, {'ForeName': 'Shalini', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Singh', 'Affiliation': ""Department of Ophthalmology, King George's Medical University, Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh, India.""}, {'ForeName': 'Sanjeev', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Hansraj', 'Affiliation': 'Mansarovar Eye Hospital, Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh, India.'}, {'ForeName': 'Ajai K', 'Initials': 'AK', 'LastName': 'Gupta', 'Affiliation': 'Jan Kalyan Eye Hospital, Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh, India.'}, {'ForeName': 'Siddharth', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Agrawal', 'Affiliation': ""Department of Ophthalmology, King George's Medical University, Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh, India.""}, {'ForeName': 'Vishal', 'Initials': 'V', 'LastName': 'Katiyar', 'Affiliation': ""Department of Ophthalmology, King George's Medical University, Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh, India.""}, {'ForeName': 'Sanjiv K', 'Initials': 'SK', 'LastName': 'Gupta', 'Affiliation': ""Department of Ophthalmology, King George's Medical University, Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh, India.""}]",Indian journal of ophthalmology,['10.4103/ijo.IJO_1388_19']
2013,31061025,Protocol: randomised trial to compare nasoduodenal tube and nasogastric tube feeding in infants with bronchiolitis on high-flow nasal cannula; Bronchiolitis and High-flow nasal cannula with Enteral Tube feeding Randomised (BHETR) trial.,"INTRODUCTION
High-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) is a non-invasive form of respiratory support used increasingly in bronchiolitis. HFNC provides a variable amount of positive pressure similar to continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP). The positive pressure in CPAP can distend and loosen oesophageal sphincter pressure leading to increased reflux. It is unclear if HFNC causes a similar action. Feeding tubes are used to provide nutrition and hydration to patients that are unable to safely take oral feedings. If there is increased reflux from HFNC, this would increase the risk of aspiration. Our institution places nasoduodenal tubes (NDT) to eliminate this risk. The purpose of the study is to infer if there is a difference between NDT and nasogastric tube (NGT) feeding with regard to length of respiratory support, number of emesis, number of chest X-rays and readmission/emergency room revisit rates.
METHODS AND ANALYSIS
Patients with bronchiolitis, on high-flow nasal cannula, and whose primary physicians have decided on feeding tube for nutrition/hydration will be approached for consent and enrolment. Patients will be randomised to NGT or NDT in variable block sizes and stratified into low- and high-risk groups. Outcomes will be analysed by both a frequentist and Bayesian statistical approach.
ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION
The trial was approved by local institutional review board. Every attempt will be made to reduce to an absolute minimum the interval between completion of data collection and release of study results through appropriate dissemination mediums including abstracts, poster presentations and journal publications.

In this multicenter, double-blind, phase 3 study, 598 adult ABSSSI patients in China, Taiwan, the Philippines, and the United States were randomized to receive 200 mg of tedizolid, intravenously (i.v.)/orally (p.o.), once daily for 6 days or 600 mg of linezolid, i.v./p.o. twice daily for 10 days. The primary endpoint was early clinical response rate at 48 to 72 h. Secondary endpoints included programmatic and investigator-assessed outcomes at end-of-therapy (EOT) and posttherapy evaluation (PTE) visits. Safety was also evaluated. In the intent-to-treat (ITT) population, 75.3% of tedizolid-treated patients and 79.9% of linezolid-treated patients were early responders (treatment difference, -4.6%; 95% confidence interval [CI], -11.2, 2.2). After exclusion of patients who never received the study drug (tedizolid, n = 8; linezolid, n = 1; modified ITT), comparable early response rates were observed (tedizolid, 77.4%; linezolid, 80.1%; treatment difference, -2.7%; 95% CI, -9.4, 3.9). Secondary endpoints showed high and similar clinical success rates in the ITT and clinically evaluable (CE) populations at EOT and PTE visits (e.g., CE-PTE for tedizolid, 90.4%; for linezolid, 93.5%). Both drugs were well tolerated, and no death occurred. Eight patients experienced phlebitis with tedizolid while none did with linezolid; hence, drug-related treatment-emergent adverse events were reported in a slightly higher proportion in the tedizolid (20.9%) arm than in the linezolid arm (15.8%).

2016,32149427,Aromatic L-Amino Acid Decarboxylase Gene Therapy Enhances Levodopa Response in Parkinson's Disease.,"BACKGROUND
As Parkinson's disease progresses, levodopa treatment loses efficacy, partly through the loss of the endogenous dopamine-synthesizing enzyme L-amino acid decarboxylase (AADC). In the phase I PD-1101 study, putaminal administration of VY-AADC01, an investigational adeno-associated virus serotype-2 vector for delivery of the AADC gene in patients with advanced Parkinson's disease, was well tolerated, improved motor function, and reduced antiparkinsonian medication requirements.
OBJECTIVES
This substudy aimed to determine whether the timing and magnitude of motor response to intravenous levodopa changed in PD-1101 patients after VY-AADC01 administration.
METHODS
Participants received 2-hour threshold (0.6 mg/kg/h) and suprathreshold (1.2 mg/kg/h) levodopa infusions on each of 2 days, both before and approximately 6 months after VY-AADC01. Infusion order was randomized and double blinded. Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale motor scores, finger-tapping speeds, and dyskinesia rating scores were assessed every 30 minutes for 1 hour before and ≥3 hours after start of levodopa infusion.
RESULTS
Of 15 PD-1101 patients, 13 participated in the substudy. Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale motor score area under the curve responses to threshold and suprathreshold levodopa infusions increased by 168% and 67%, respectively, after VY-AADC01; finger-tapping speeds improved by 162% and 113%, and dyskinesia scores increased by 208% and 72%, respectively, after VY-AADC01. Adverse events (mild/moderate severity) were reported in 5 participants during levodopa infusions pre-VY-AADC01 and 2 participants post-VY-AADC01 administration.
CONCLUSIONS

2017,31748596,Noisy galvanic vestibular stimulation has a greater ameliorating effect on posture in unstable subjects: a feasibility study.,"Ameliorating effect of noisy galvanic vestibular stimulation (nGVS) on posture varies among subjects. In this feasibility study, we investigated the association between original postural instability and the ameliorating effect of nGVS on posture. Data were collected in a previously published study. Thirty healthy elderly were recruited. Two nGVS sessions (30 min or 3 h) were performed in a randomised order. The optimal intensity of nGVS, the most effective intensity for improving posture, was determined before each session. Posture was measured for 30 s during and after nGVS in the eyes-closed/foam rubber condition. The velocity, envelopment area, and root mean square of the centre of pressure movement without nGVS were significantly larger in the group with an optimal intensity than those in the group without an optimal intensity. There was a significant positive correlation between these values and the long-term ameliorating effects. The ratio of the values in the eyes-closed/foam rubber condition to those in the eyes-open condition was significantly larger in the group with an optimal intensity, and had a significant correlation with the long-term ameliorating effects.

2018,31500466,Proresolving mediator profiles in cerebrospinal fluid are linked with disease severity and outcome in adults with tuberculous meningitis.,"Tuberculous meningitis (TBM) is the most lethal form of tuberculosis infection, characterized by a dysregulated immune response that frequently leads to neurologic injury and death despite the best available treatment. The mechanisms driving the inflammatory response in TBM are not well understood. To gain insights into these mechanisms, we used a lipid mediator-profiling approach to investigate the regulation of a novel group of host protective mediators, termed specialized proresolving mediators (SPMs), in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of adults with TBM. Herein, using CSF from patients enrolled into a randomized placebo-controlled trial of adjunctive aspirin treatment, we found distinct lipid mediator profiles with increasing disease severity. These changes were linked with an up-regulation of inflammatory eicosanoids in patients with severe TBM and a decrease in the production of a number of SPMs. CSF proresolving mediator concentrations were also associated with 80-d survival. In survivors, we found a significant increase in proresolving mediator concentrations, including the lipoxygenase 5-derived 13-series resolvin (RvT)2, RvT4, and 15-epi-lipoxin B 4 , compared with those who died. Of note, treatment of patients with high-dose aspirin led to a decrease in the concentrations of the prothrombic mediator thromboxane A 2 , reduced brain infarcts, and decreased death in patients with TBM. Together, these findings identify a CSF SPM signature that is associated with disease severity and 80-d mortality in TBM.-Colas, R. A., Nhat, L. T. H., Thuong, N. T. T., Gómez, E.

2019,31537373,Co-trimoxazole or multivitamin multimineral supplement for post-discharge outcomes after severe anaemia in African children: a randomised controlled trial.,"BACKGROUND
Severe anaemia is a leading cause of paediatric admission to hospital in Africa; post-discharge outcomes remain poor, with high 6-month mortality (8%) and re-admission (17%). We aimed to investigate post-discharge interventions that might improve outcomes.
METHODS
Within the two-stratum, open-label, multicentre, factorial randomised TRACT trial, children aged 2 months to 12 years with severe anaemia, defined as haemoglobin of less than 6 g/dL, at admission to hospital (three in Uganda, one in Malawi) were randomly assigned, using sequentially numbered envelopes linked to a second non-sequentially numbered set of allocations stratified by centre and severity, to enhanced nutritional supplementation with iron and folate-containing multivitamin multimineral supplements versus iron and folate alone at treatment doses (usual care), and to co-trimoxazole versus no co-trimoxazole. All interventions were administered orally and were given for 3 months after discharge from hospital. Separately reported randomisations investigated transfusion management. The primary outcome was 180-day mortality. All analyses were done in the intention-to-treat population; follow-up was 180 days. This trial is registered with the International Standard Randomised Controlled Trial registry, ISRCTN84086586, and follow-up is complete.
FINDINGS
From Sept 17, 2014, to May 15, 2017, 3983 eligible children were randomly assigned to treatment, and followed up for 180 days. 164 (4%) were lost to follow-up. 1901 (95%) of 1997 assigned multivitamin multimineral supplement, 1911 (96%) of 1986 assigned iron and folate, and 1922 (96%) of 1994 assigned co-trimoxazole started treatment. By day 180, 166 (8%) children in the multivitamin multimineral supplement group versus 169 (9%) children in the iron and folate group had died (hazard ratio [HR] 0·97, 95% CI 0·79-1·21; p=0·81) and 172 (9%) who received co-trimoxazole versus 163 (8%) who did not receive co-trimoxazole had died (HR 1·07, 95% CI 0·86-1·32; p=0·56). We found no evidence of interactions between these randomisations or with transfusion randomisations (p>0·2). By day 180, 489 (24%) children in the multivitamin multimineral supplement group versus 509 (26%) children in the iron and folate group (HR 0·95, 95% CI 0·84-1·07; p=0·40), and 500 (25%) children in the co-trimoxazole group versus 498 (25%) children in the no co-trimoxazole group (1·01, 0·89-1·15; p=0·85) had had one or more serious adverse events. Most serious adverse events were re-admissions, occurring in 692 (17%) children (175 [4%] with at least two re-admissions).
INTERPRETATION
Neither enhanced supplementation with multivitamin multimineral supplement versus iron and folate treatment or co-trimoxazole prophylaxis improved 6-month survival. High rates of hospital re-admission suggest that novel interventions are urgently required for severe anaemia, given the burden it places on overstretched health services in Africa.

This approach is not without risk to participants and innovative trial designs need to be developed that minimise the number of participants treated with placebo and ineffective candidates. Multi-arm, multi-stage (MAMS) trial designs can be used in this context to accelerate the development of an immune-based therapeutic agent for HIV cure. Issues related to implementing a MAMS design within the planned EHVA T01 trial are considered here. EHVA T01 is a multicentre, MAMS, double-blind, phase 1 and 2 trial that aims to evaluate the effect of immune interventions on viral control in HIV-1 infected participants following analytic treatment interruption. The application of a MAMS design increases the likelihood that the EHVA T01 trial will identify a successful treatment and minimises the number of participants undergoing analytical treatment interruptions who have been treated with futile agents. The use of a MAMS design is a promising strategy to evaluate complex immune-based approaches aimed at curing HIV-infection, particularly relevant to the pipeline with multiple agents requiring examination.",2019,This approach is not without risk to participants and innovative trial designs need to be developed that minimise the number of participants treated with placebo and ineffective candidates.,"['HIV-1 infected participants following analytic treatment interruption', 'participants undergoing analytical treatment interruptions who have been treated with futile agents']","['immune interventions', 'placebo']",[],"[{'cui': 'C0019704', 'cui_str': 'HIV-I'}, {'cui': 'C0332282', 'cui_str': 'Following (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0087111', 'cui_str': 'Therapy'}, {'cui': 'C0332293', 'cui_str': 'Treated with (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0450442', 'cui_str': 'Agent (attribute)'}]","[{'cui': 'C0439662', 'cui_str': 'Immune (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C1696465', 'cui_str': 'placebo'}]",[],,0.462661,This approach is not without risk to participants and innovative trial designs need to be developed that minimise the number of participants treated with placebo and ineffective candidates.,"[{'ForeName': 'Cecilia L', 'Initials': 'CL', 'LastName': 'Moore', 'Affiliation': 'Medical Research Council Clinical Trials Unit, Institute of Clinical Trials and Methodology, University College London, London, UK.

2021,31152308,Effect of corticosteroids on myocardial injury among patients hospitalized for community-acquired pneumonia: rationale and study design. The colosseum trial.,"Community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) is often complicated by elevation of cardiac troponin, a marker of myocardial injury that can be isolated or associated with myocardial infarction (MI). A retrospective study showed that corticosteroid treatment lowers the incidence of MI during the hospital stay. No data exist so far on the effect of corticosteroids on myocardial injury in CAP patients. The primary objective of the study is to evaluate if methylprednisolone is able to reduce myocardial injury, as assessed by serum high-sensitivity cardiac T Troponin (hs-cTnT), in a cohort of patients hospitalized for CAP. Secondary aims are to evaluate the potential effect of methylprednisolone on cardiovascular events during hospitalization, at 30 days from hospital admission and during 2 years' follow-up. The trial will also examine whether the potential protective effects of methylprednisolone might be due to platelet activation down-regulation. Double-blind randomized placebo-controlled trial. One hundred twenty-two eligible patients will be randomized to a week treatment with iv methylprednisolone (20 mg b.i.d) or placebo from hospital admission. Serum hs-cTnT will be measured at admission and every day until up 3 days from admission. ECG will be monitored every day until discharge. After discharge, all patients will be followed-up 2 years. This is the first clinical trial aimed at examining whether methylprednisolone treatment may reduce myocardial injury. The results of this trial may constitute the basis for conducting a larger multicenter trial aimed to evaluate the effect of corticosteroid on cardiovascular events in this setting.",2020,"Community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) is often complicated by elevation of cardiac troponin, a marker of myocardial injury that can be isolated or associated with myocardial infarction (MI).","['patients hospitalized for CAP', 'One hundred twenty-two eligible patients', 'CAP patients', 'patients hospitalized for community-acquired pneumonia']","['corticosteroid', 'placebo', 'methylprednisolone', 'corticosteroids']","['cardiovascular events', 'myocardial injury', 'incidence of MI during the hospital stay']","[{'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C0179586', 'cui_str': 'Cap (physical object)'}, {'cui': 'C1704407', 'cui_str': '100 (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C4284772', 'cui_str': '22 (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0694549', 'cui_str': 'Community acquired pneumonia (disorder)'}]","[{'cui': 'C3539185', 'cui_str': 'Corticosteroid nasal preparations for topical use'}, {'cui': 'C1696465', 'cui_str': 'placebo'}, {'cui': 'C0025815', 'cui_str': 'Methylprednisolone'}]","[{'cui': 'C1320716', 'cui_str': 'Cardiovascular event'}, {'cui': 'C3263722', 'cui_str': 'Traumatic AND/OR non-traumatic injury'}, {'cui': 'C0220856', 'cui_str': 'incidence'}, {'cui': 'C3489408', 'cui_str': 'Hospital Stay'}]",122.0,0.547563,"Community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) is often complicated by elevation of cardiac troponin, a marker of myocardial injury that can be isolated or associated with myocardial infarction (MI).","[{'ForeName': 'Francesco', 'Initials': 'F', 'LastName': 'Violi', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Internal Medicine and Medical Specialties, Sapienza University of Rome, Viale del Policlinico 155, 00161, Rome, Italy. francesco.violi@uniroma1.it.'}, {'ForeName': 'Camilla', 'Initials': 'C', 'LastName': 'Calvieri', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Cardiovascular, Respiratory, Nephrologic and Geriatric Sciences, La Sapienza University, Rome, Italy.'}, {'ForeName': 'Roberto', 'Initials': 'R', 'LastName': 'Cangemi', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Internal Medicine and Medical Specialties, Sapienza University of Rome, Viale del Policlinico 155, 00161, Rome, Italy.'}]",Internal and emergency medicine,['10.1007/s11739-019-02117-0']
2022,31264800,Mindfulness-based cognitive therapy for children and adolescents with anxiety disorders at-risk for bipolar disorder: A psychoeducation waitlist controlled pilot trial.,"AIM
Previous studies suggest that Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy for Children (MBCT-C) is feasible and may improve anxiety and emotion regulation in youth with anxiety disorders at-risk for bipolar disorder. However, controlled studies are warranted to replicate and extend these findings.
METHODS
In the current study, 24 youth with anxiety disorders who have at least one parent with bipolar disorder participated in a MBCT-C treatment period (n = 24; M age = 13.6, 75% girls, 79% White) with a subset also participating in a prior psychoeducation waitlist control period (n = 19 M age = 13.8, 68% girls, 84% White). Participants in both the waitlist and MBCT-C periods completed independently-rated symptom scales at each time point. Participants in the waitlist period received educational materials 12 weeks prior to the beginning of MBCT-C.
RESULTS
There were significantly greater improvements in overall clinical severity in the MBCT-C period compared to the waitlist period, but not in clinician- and child-rated anxiety, emotion regulation or mindfulness. However, increases in mindfulness were associated with improvements in anxiety and emotion regulation in the MBCT-C period, but not the waitlist period.
CONCLUSIONS
Findings suggest that MBCT-C may be effective for improving overall clinical severity in youth with anxiety disorders who are at-risk for bipolar disorder. However, waitlist controlled designs may inflate effect sizes so interpret with caution. Larger studies utilizing prospective randomized controlled designs are warranted.",2020,"However, increases in mindfulness were associated with improvements in anxiety and emotion regulation in the MBCT-C period, but not the waitlist period.

2023,32087257,The influence of prolonged temperature management on acute kidney injury after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest: A post hoc analysis of the TTH48 trial.,"BACKGROUND
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is common after cardiac arrest and targeted temperature management (TTM). The impact of different lengths of cooling on the development of AKI has not been well studied. In this study of patients included in a randomised controlled trial of TTM at 33 °C for 24 versus 48 h after cardiac arrest (TTH48 trial), we examined the influence of prolonged TTM on AKI and the incidence and factors associated with the development of AKI. We also examined the impact of AKI on survival.
METHODS
This study was a sub-study of the TTH48 trial, which included patients cooled to 33 ± 1 °C after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest for 24 versus 48 h. AKI was classified according to the KDIGO AKI criteria based on serum creatinine and urine output collected until ICU discharge for a maximum of seven days. Survival was followed for up to six months. The association of admission factors on AKI was analysed with multivariate analysis and the association of AKI on mortality was analysed with Cox regression using the time to AKI as a time-dependent covariate.
RESULTS
Of the 349 patients included in the study, 159 (45.5%) developed AKI. There was no significant difference in the incidence, severity or time to AKI between the 24- and 48-h groups. Serum creatinine values had significantly different trajectories for the two groups with a sharp rise occurring during rewarming. Age, time to return of spontaneous circulation, serum creatinine at admission and body mass index were independent predictors of AKI. Patients with AKI had a higher mortality than patients without AKI (hospital mortality 36.5% vs 12.5%, p < 0.001), but only AKI stages 2 and 3 were independently associated with mortality.
CONCLUSIONS
We did not find any association between prolonged TTM at 33 °C and the risk of AKI during the first seven days in the ICU. AKI is prevalent after cardiac arrest and TTM and occurs in almost half of all ICU admitted patients and more commonly in the elderly, with an increasing BMI and longer arrest duration. AKI after cardiac arrest is an independent predictor of time to death.",2020,"There was no significant difference in the incidence, severity or time to AKI between the 24- and 48-hour groups.","['TTH48 trial, which included patients cooled to 33±1˚C after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest for 24 versus 48hours', '349 patients included in the study, 159 (45.5%) developed AKI', 'acute kidney injury after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest']","['prolonged temperature management', 'TTM']","['higher mortality', 'mortality', 'Serum creatinine values', 'Survival', 'incidence, severity or time to AKI', 'Age, time to return of spontaneous circulation, serum creatinine at admission and body mass index']","[{'cui': 'C0332257', 'cui_str': 'Including (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C2936490', 'cui_str': 'Out-of-Hospital Heart Arrest'}, {'cui': 'C0557651', 'cui_str': 'Study (environment)'}, {'cui': 'C2609414', 'cui_str': 'Acute Renal Injury'}]","[{'cui': 'C0439590', 'cui_str': 'Prolonged (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0039476', 'cui_str': 'Temperature'}]","[{'cui': 'C0205250', 'cui_str': 'High (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0026566', 'cui_str': 'mortality'}, {'cui': 'C0201976', 'cui_str': 'Creatinine measurement, serum (procedure)'}, {'cui': 'C1273875', 'cui_str': 'Values (community)'}, {'cui': 'C0220921', 'cui_str': 'survival'}, {'cui': 'C0220856', 'cui_str': 'incidence'}, {'cui': 'C0439793', 'cui_str': 'Severity (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C1632851', 'cui_str': 'Times'}, {'cui': 'C0001792', 'cui_str': 'Elderly'}, {'cui': 'C0205359', 'cui_str': 'Spontaneous (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0005893', 'cui_str': 'Body mass index'}]",349.0,0.11476,"There was no significant difference in the incidence, severity or time to AKI between the 24- and 48-hour groups.","[{'ForeName': 'Kristian', 'Initials': 'K', 'LastName': 'Strand', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Intensive Care, Stavanger University Hospital, Norway.

2024,31004139,The Kansas University DHA Outcomes Study (KUDOS) clinical trial: long-term behavioral follow-up of the effects of prenatal DHA supplementation.,"BACKGROUND
Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) is a long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acid that has been linked to improved vision and cognition in postnatal feeding studies and has been consistently associated with reduction of early preterm birth in prenatal supplementation trials. This is a report of the first long-term follow-up of infants from mothers receiving prenatal DHA supplementation in a US cohort.
OBJECTIVE
Our objective was to evaluate the efficacy of the prenatal supplementation on both global and granular longitudinal assessments of cognitive and behavioral development.
METHODS
In a randomized double-blind clinical trial, mothers received either 600 mg/d of DHA or a placebo beginning at 14.5 weeks of gestation and capsules were provided until delivery. Children from those pregnancies were followed by cognitive and behavioral assessments administered from 10 mo through 6 y of age. From 301 mothers in the initial study, ∼200 infants completed the longitudinal schedule.
RESULTS
Although this intervention had been shown to reduce high-risk pregnancies and improve visual attention in infants during the first year, only a few positive long-term effects of prenatal DHA supplementation emerged from analyses of this follow-up. Increases in maternal blood DHA during pregnancy were related to verbal and full scale intelligence quotient (IQ) scores at 5 and 6 y, but these effects disappeared after controlling for SES. Maternal blood DHA concentrations at delivery were unrelated to outcomes, although maternal DHA at enrollment was related to productive vocabulary at 18 mo.
CONCLUSIONS
Although prenatal DHA supplementation substantially reduced early preterm birth and improved visual attention in infancy in this sample, no consistent long-term benefits were observed into childhood. Increases in maternal blood DHA concentration in pregnancy were related to higher IQs but this effect was confounded with SES and disappeared when SES was statistically controlled. This trial was registered at http://www.clinicaltrials.gov as NCT00266825 and NCT02487771.",2019,Increases in maternal blood DHA concentration in pregnancy were related to higher IQs but this effect was confounded with SES and disappeared when SES was statistically controlled.,"['infants from mothers receiving', '301 mothers in the initial study, ∼200 infants completed the longitudinal schedule']","['prenatal supplementation', 'prenatal DHA supplementation', 'DHA or a placebo', 'Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA']","['early preterm birth and improved visual attention', 'maternal blood DHA concentration', 'verbal and full scale intelligence quotient (IQ) scores', 'high-risk pregnancies', 'visual attention', 'maternal blood DHA', 'Maternal blood DHA concentrations']","[{'cui': 'C0021270', 'cui_str': 'Infant'}, {'cui': 'C0026591', 'cui_str': 'Mothers'}, {'cui': 'C0205265', 'cui_str': 'Initial (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0557651', 'cui_str': 'Study (environment)'}, {'cui': 'C0205197', 'cui_str': 'Complete (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0205127', 'cui_str': 'Longitudinal (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0086960', 'cui_str': 'Schedules'}]","[{'cui': 'C1696465', 'cui_str': 'placebo'}, {'cui': 'C0556150', 'cui_str': 'docosahexaenoic acid'}]","[{'cui': 'C1279919', 'cui_str': 'Early (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0151526', 'cui_str': 'Premature Birth'}, {'cui': 'C0184511', 'cui_str': 'Improved (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0589102', 'cui_str': 'Visual attention, function (observable entity)'}, {'cui': 'C0026591', 'cui_str': 'Mothers'}, {'cui': 'C0005768'}, {'cui': 'C0086045', 'cui_str': 'Concentration'}, {'cui': 'C0439824', 'cui_str': 'Verbal (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0222045'}, {'cui': 'C0456149', 'cui_str': 'Intelligence quotient (observable entity)'}, {'cui': 'C0449820', 'cui_str': 'Scores (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0242786', 'cui_str': 'High-Risk Pregnancy'}]",,0.467493,Increases in maternal blood DHA concentration in pregnancy were related to higher IQs but this effect was confounded with SES and disappeared when SES was statistically controlled.,"[{'ForeName': 'John', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Colombo', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Psychology and Schiefelbusch Institute for Life Span Studies, University of Kansas, Lawrence, KS.'}, {'ForeName': 'D Jill', 'Initials': 'DJ', 'LastName': 'Shaddy', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Dietetics and Nutrition, University of Kansas Medical Center, Kansas City, KS.'}, {'ForeName': 'Kathleen', 'Initials': 'K', 'LastName': 'Gustafson', 'Affiliation': 'Hoglund Brain Imaging Center, University of Kansas Medical Center, Kansas City, KS.'}, {'ForeName': 'Byron J', 'Initials': 'BJ', 'LastName': 'Gajewski', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Biostatistics, University of Kansas Medical Center, Kansas City, KS.'}, {'ForeName': 'Jocelynn M', 'Initials': 'JM', 'LastName': 'Thodosoff', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Dietetics and Nutrition, University of Kansas Medical Center, Kansas City, KS.'}, {'ForeName': 'Elizabeth', 'Initials': 'E', 'LastName': 'Kerling', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Dietetics and Nutrition, University of Kansas Medical Center, Kansas City, KS.'}, {'ForeName': 'Susan E', 'Initials': 'SE', 'LastName': 'Carlson', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Dietetics and Nutrition, University of Kansas Medical Center, Kansas City, KS.'}]",The American journal of clinical nutrition,['10.1093/ajcn/nqz018']
2025,30395486,"The Combination of Atomoxetine and Oxybutynin Greatly Reduces Obstructive Sleep Apnea Severity. A Randomized, Placebo-controlled, Double-Blind Crossover Trial.","Rationale: There is currently no effective pharmacological treatment for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Recent investigations indicate that drugs with noradrenergic and antimuscarinic effects improve genioglossus muscle activity and upper airway patency during sleep. Objectives: We aimed to determine the effects of the combination of a norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor (atomoxetine) and an antimuscarinic (oxybutynin) on OSA severity (apnea-hypopnea index [AHI]; primary outcome) and genioglossus responsiveness (secondary outcome) in people with OSA. Methods: A total of 20 people completed a randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind, crossover trial comparing 1 night of 80 mg atomoxetine plus 5 mg oxybutynin (ato-oxy) to placebo administered before sleep. The AHI and genioglossus muscle responsiveness to negative esophageal pressure swings were measured via in-laboratory polysomnography. In a subgroup of nine patients, the AHI was also measured when the drugs were administered separately. Measurements and Main Results: The participants' median (interquartile range) age was 53 (46-58) years and body mass index was 34.8 (30.0-40.2) kg/m 2 . ato-oxy lowered AHI by 63% (34-86%), from 28.5 (10.9-51.6) events/h to 7.5 (2.4-18.6) events/h ( P < 0.001). Of the 15/20 patients with OSA on placebo (AHI > 10 events/hr), AHI was lowered by 74% (62-88%) ( P < 0.001) and all 15 patients exhibited a ≥50% reduction. Genioglossus responsiveness increased approximately threefold, from 2.2 (1.1-4.7)%/cm H 2 O on placebo to 6.3 (3.0 to 18.3)%/cm H 2 O on ato-oxy ( P < 0.001). Neither atomoxetine nor oxybutynin reduced the AHI when administered separately.

2026,30169436,"Benefits of Methylphenidate for Long-Term Attention Problems After Traumatic Brain Injury in Childhood: A Randomized, Double-Masked, Placebo-Controlled, Dose-Titration, Crossover Trial.","OBJECTIVE
To characterize the benefits and optimal dose of long-acting methylphenidate for management of long-term attention problems after childhood traumatic brain injury (TBI).
DESIGN
Phase 2, randomized, double-masked, placebo-controlled, dose-titration, crossover clinical trial.
SETTING
Outpatient, clinical research.
PARTICIPANTS
Twenty-six children aged 6 to 17 years who were at least 6 months post-TBI and met criteria for attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) at the time of enrollment.
OUTCOME MEASURES
Vanderbilt Rating Scale of attention problems, Pittsburgh Side Effects Rating Scale, and vital signs.
RESULTS
Among the 26 participants randomized, 20 completed the trial. The mean ages at injury and enrollment were 6.3 and 11.5 years, respectively. Eight participants had a severe TBI. On an optimal dose of medication, greater reductions were found on the Vanderbilt Parent Rating Scale for the medicated condition than for placebo (P = .022, effect size = 0.59). The mean optimal dose of methylphenidate was 40.5 mg (1.00 mg/kg/day). Preinjury ADHD diagnosis status was not associated with a differential medication response. Methylphenidate was associated with weight loss (∼1 kg), increased systolic blood pressure (∼3- to 6-point increase), and mild reported changes in appetite.
CONCLUSION
Findings support use of long-acting methylphenidate for management of long-term attention problems after pediatric TBI.

2027,30554749,"Independent and combined effects of improved water, sanitation, and hygiene, and improved complementary feeding, on child stunting and anaemia in rural Zimbabwe: a cluster-randomised trial.","BACKGROUND
Child stunting reduces survival and impairs neurodevelopment. We tested the independent and combined effects of improved water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH), and improved infant and young child feeding (IYCF) on stunting and anaemia in in Zimbabwe.
METHODS
We did a cluster-randomised, community-based, 2 × 2 factorial trial in two rural districts in Zimbabwe. Clusters were defined as the catchment area of between one and four village health workers employed by the Zimbabwe Ministry of Health and Child Care. Women were eligible for inclusion if they permanently lived in clusters and were confirmed pregnant. Clusters were randomly assigned (1:1:1:1) to standard of care (52 clusters), IYCF (20 g of a small-quantity lipid-based nutrient supplement per day from age 6 to 18 months plus complementary feeding counselling; 53 clusters), WASH (construction of a ventilated improved pit latrine, provision of two handwashing stations, liquid soap, chlorine, and play space plus hygiene counselling; 53 clusters), or IYCF plus WASH (53 clusters). A constrained randomisation technique was used to achieve balance across the groups for 14 variables related to geography, demography, water access, and community-level sanitation coverage. Masking of participants and fieldworkers was not possible. The primary outcomes were infant length-for-age Z score and haemoglobin concentrations at 18 months of age among children born to mothers who were HIV negative during pregnancy. These outcomes were analysed in the intention-to-treat population. We estimated the effects of the interventions by comparing the two IYCF groups with the two non-IYCF groups and the two WASH groups with the two non-WASH groups, except for outcomes that had an important statistical interaction between the interventions. This trial is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, number NCT01824940.
FINDINGS
Between Nov 22, 2012, and March 27, 2015, 5280 pregnant women were enrolled from 211 clusters. 3686 children born to HIV-negative mothers were assessed at age 18 months (884 in the standard of care group from 52 clusters, 893 in the IYCF group from 53 clusters, 918 in the WASH group from 53 clusters, and 991 in the IYCF plus WASH group from 51 clusters). In the IYCF intervention groups, the mean length-for-age Z score was 0·16 (95% CI 0·08-0·23) higher and the mean haemoglobin concentration was 2·03 g/L (1·28-2·79) higher than those in the non-IYCF intervention groups. The IYCF intervention reduced the number of stunted children from 620 (35%) of 1792 to 514 (27%) of 1879, and the number of children with anaemia from 245 (13·9%) of 1759 to 193 (10·5%) of 1845. The WASH intervention had no effect on either primary outcome. Neither intervention reduced the prevalence of diarrhoea at 12 or 18 months. No trial-related serious adverse events, and only three trial-related adverse events, were reported.
INTERPRETATION
Household-level elementary WASH interventions implemented in rural areas in low-income countries are unlikely to reduce stunting or anaemia and might not reduce diarrhoea. Implementation of these WASH interventions in combination with IYCF interventions is unlikely to reduce stunting or anaemia more than implementation of IYCF alone.

2028,30332312,Stigma Diminishes the Protective Effect of Social Support on Psychological Distress Among Young Black Men Who Have Sex With Men.,"Addressing stigma remains a pressing HIV priority globally. Young Black men who have sex with men (YBMSM, ages 18-30; N = 474) completed an in-person baseline survey and reported their experiences of externalized stigma (i.e., racial and sexuality discrimination), internalized stigma (i.e., homonegativity), social support, and psychological distress (i.e., anxiety and depression symptoms). We used structural equation modeling to test the association between stigma and psychological distress, and examined whether social support mediated the relationship between stigma and psychological distress. Recognizing that these associations may differ by HIV status, we compared our models by self-reported HIV status (n = 275 HIV negative/unknown; n = 199 living with HIV).

The purpose of this study was to test a novel intervention that was personalized and family-based in a Latino population to reduce childhood obesity. Methods: Competency-Based Approaches to Community Health (COACH) was a randomized controlled trial. Latino parent - child pairs were recruited from community settings in Nashville, TN. Child eligibility criteria included age 3-5 years and a BMI ≥50th percentile. The intervention included 15 weekly, 90-minute sessions followed by 3 months of twice-monthly health coaching calls. The control group was a twice-monthly school readiness curriculum for 3 months. Sessions were conducted by a health coach in local community centers, with groups of 8-11 parent - child pairs. The primary outcome was child BMI trajectory across 12 months, measured at four times. The intervention's effect was assessed by using a longitudinal, linear mixed-effects growth model, adjusting for child gender, baseline child and parent age, and baseline parent BMI and education. Results: Of the 305 parent - child pairs assessed for eligibility, 117 were randomized (59 intervention, 58 control). Child BMI was available for 91.5% at 1-year follow-up. Mean baseline child age was 4.2 [standard deviation (SD) = 0.8] years, and 53.8% of children were female. Mean baseline child BMI was 18.1 (SD = 2.6) kg/m 2 . After adjusting for covariates, the intervention's effect on linear child BMI growth was -0.41 kg/m 2 per year (95% confidence interval -0.82 to 0.01; p = 0.05).

2030,31034106,Differences in long-term physical activity trajectories among individuals with chronic widespread pain: A secondary analysis of a randomized controlled trial.,"BACKGROUND
Little is known about long-term physical activity (PA) maintenance in those with chronic widespread pain (CWP) following an exercise intervention. This study examined PA over time to identify the existence and characteristics of subgroups following distinct PA trajectories.
METHODS
Data come from individuals with CWP who took part in a 2 × 2 factorial randomized controlled trial, receiving either exercise or both exercise and cognitive behavioural therapy treatment. Information, including self-report PA, was collected at baseline recruitment, immediately post-intervention, 3, 24 and 60+ month post-treatment. Analyses were conducted on 196 men and women with ≥ 3 PA data points. Group-based trajectory modelling was used to identify latent PA trajectory groups and baseline characteristics (e.g., demographics, pain, self-rated health, fatigue, coping-strategy use and kinesiophobia) of these groups.
RESULTS
The best fitting model identified was one with three trajectories: ""non-engagers"" (n = 32), ""maintainers"" (n = 144) and ""super-maintainers"" (n = 20). Overall, mean baseline PA levels were significantly different between groups (non-engagers: 1.1; maintainers: 4.6; super-maintainers: 8.6, p < 0.001) and all other follow-up points. Non-engagers reported, on average, greater BMI, higher disabling chronic pain, poorer self-rated health, physical functioning, as well as greater use of passive coping strategies and lower use of active coping strategies.
CONCLUSIONS
The majority of individuals with CWP receiving exercise as part of a trial were identified as long-term PA maintainers. Participants with poorer physical health and coping response to symptoms were identified as non-engagers. For optimal symptom management, a stratified approach may enhance initiation and long-term PA maintenance in individuals with CWP.
SIGNIFICANCE
Chronic pain can be a major barrier to engaging in exercise, a popular self-management strategy. Our findings identify three distinct long-term physical activity trajectories for individuals receiving the same exercise intervention. This suggests an approach by health care providers which identifies individuals who would benefit from additional support to enhance initiation and long-term physical activity maintenance could deliver better outcomes for such patients.",2019,"Overall, mean baseline PA levels were significantly different between groups (non-engagers: 1.1; maintainers: 4.6; super-maintainers: 8.6, p < 0.001) and all other follow-up points.","['individuals with chronic widespread pain', 'individuals with CWP', 'Data come from individuals with CWP who took part in a 2\xa0×\xa02 factorial randomized controlled trial, receiving either', 'Participants with poorer physical health and coping response to symptoms were identified as non-engagers', '196 men and women with\xa0≥\xa03 PA data points']",['exercise or both exercise and cognitive behavioural therapy treatment'],"['BMI, higher disabling chronic pain, poorer self-rated health, physical functioning', 'mean baseline PA levels']","[{'cui': 'C0237401', 'cui_str': 'Individual (person)'}, {'cui': 'C0205191', 'cui_str': 'Chronic (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0205391', 'cui_str': 'Widespread (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0030193', 'cui_str': 'Pain'}, {'cui': 'C0960273', 'cui_str': 'CAME'}, {'cui': 'C1515187', 'cui_str': 'Take'}, {'cui': 'C2587213', 'cui_str': 'Controlled (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0542537', 'cui_str': 'Poor - grade'}, {'cui': 'C0205485', 'cui_str': 'Physical (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0018684', 'cui_str': 'Health'}, {'cui': 'C0683368', 'cui_str': 'symptoms'}, {'cui': 'C0205396', 'cui_str': 'Identified (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C4517625', 'cui_str': '196'}, {'cui': 'C0086418', 'cui_str': 'Humans'}, {'cui': 'C0043210', 'cui_str': 'Girls'}, {'cui': 'C1565416', 'cui_str': '3-(MTN)PA'}]","[{'cui': 'C0015259', 'cui_str': 'Physical Activity'}, {'cui': 'C0009244', 'cui_str': 'Cognitive Therapy'}, {'cui': 'C0087111', 'cui_str': 'Therapy'}]","[{'cui': 'C0150055', 'cui_str': 'Chronic pain (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C0542537', 'cui_str': 'Poor - grade'}, {'cui': 'C0036588', 'cui_str': 'Self'}, {'cui': 'C0018684', 'cui_str': 'Health'}, {'cui': 'C0205485', 'cui_str': 'Physical (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0444504', 'cui_str': 'Mean (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0456079', 'cui_str': 'Level (attribute)'}]",196.0,0.0921661,"Overall, mean baseline PA levels were significantly different between groups (non-engagers: 1.1; maintainers: 4.6; super-maintainers: 8.6, p < 0.001) and all other follow-up points.","[{'ForeName': 'Kathryn R', 'Initials': 'KR', 'LastName': 'Martin', 'Affiliation': 'Epidemiology Group, Institute of Applied Health Sciences, School of Medicine, Medical Sciences and Nutrition, University of Aberdeen, Aberdeen, United Kingdom.'}, {'ForeName': 'Katie L', 'Initials': 'KL', 'LastName': 'Druce', 'Affiliation': 'Arthritis Research UK Centre for Epidemiology, Division of Musculoskeletal & Dermatological Sciences, University of Manchester, Manchester, United Kingdom.'}, {'ForeName': 'Sarah E', 'Initials': 'SE', 'LastName': 'Murdoch', 'Affiliation': 'Epidemiology Group, Institute of Applied Health Sciences, School of Medicine, Medical Sciences and Nutrition, University of Aberdeen, Aberdeen, United Kingdom.'}, {'ForeName': 'Lucia', 'Initials': 'L', 'LastName': ""D'Ambruoso"", 'Affiliation': 'Institute of Applied Health Sciences, School of Medicine, Medical Sciences and Nutrition, University of Aberdeen, Aberdeen, United Kingdom.'}, {'ForeName': 'Gary J', 'Initials': 'GJ', 'LastName': 'Macfarlane', 'Affiliation': 'Epidemiology Group, Institute of Applied Health Sciences, School of Medicine, Medical Sciences and Nutrition, University of Aberdeen, Aberdeen, United Kingdom.'}]","European journal of pain (London, England)",['10.1002/ejp.1410']
2031,31530577,Effect of Canagliflozin on Renal and Cardiovascular Outcomes across Different Levels of Albuminuria: Data from the CANVAS Program.,"BACKGROUND
If SGLT2 inhibitors protect the kidneys by reducing albuminuria as hypothesized, people with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) with higher albuminuria should benefit more.
METHODS
We conducted a post-hoc analysis of data from the CANagliflozin cardioVascular Assessment Study (CANVAS) Program, which randomized 10,142 participants with T2DM and high cardiovascular risk to canagliflozin or placebo. We assessed effects of canagliflozin on renal, cardiovascular, and safety outcomes by baseline albuminuria. The trial included 2266 participants (22.3%) with moderately increased albuminuria (urinary albumin/creatinine ratio [UACR] 30-300 mg/g) and 760 (7.5%) with severely increased albuminuria (UACR >300 mg/g) at baseline.
RESULTS
Canagliflozin lowered albuminuria with greater proportional reductions in those with moderately and severely increased albuminuria ( P heterogeneity<0.001). After week 13, canagliflozin slowed the annual loss of kidney function across albuminuria subgroups, with greater absolute reductions in participants with severely increased albuminuria (placebo-subtracted difference 3.01 ml/min per 1.73 m 2 per year; P heterogeneity<0.001). Heterogeneity for the renal composite outcome of 40% reduction in eGFR, ESKD, or renal-related death was driven by lesser effects in participants with moderately increased albuminuria ( P heterogeneity=0.03), but no effect modification was observed when albuminuria was fitted as a continuous variable ( P heterogeneity=0.94). Cardiovascular and safety outcomes were mostly consistent across albuminuria levels including increased risks for amputation across albuminuria subgroups ( P heterogeneity=0.66). Greater absolute risk reductions in the renal composite outcome were observed in participants with severely increased albuminuria ( P heterogeneity=0.004).
CONCLUSIONS
The proportional effects of canagliflozin on renal and cardiovascular outcomes are mostly consistent across patients with different levels of albuminuria, but absolute benefits are greatest among those with severely increased albuminuria.",2019,Cardiovascular and safety outcomes were mostly consistent across albuminuria levels including increased risks for amputation across albuminuria subgroups ( P heterogeneity=0.66).,"['2266 participants (22.3%) with moderately increased albuminuria (urinary albumin/creatinine ratio [UACR] 30-300 mg/g) and 760 (7.5%) with severely increased albuminuria (UACR >300 mg/g) at baseline', '10,142 participants with T2DM and high cardiovascular risk to']","['canagliflozin or placebo', 'canagliflozin', 'Canagliflozin']","['eGFR, ESKD, or renal-related death', 'annual loss of kidney function', 'renal, cardiovascular, and safety outcomes', 'Renal and Cardiovascular Outcomes']","[{'cui': 'C0730345', 'cui_str': 'Microalbuminuria (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C0486293', 'cui_str': 'Albumin/creatinine ratio measurement'}, {'cui': 'C4319604', 'cui_str': '300'}, {'cui': 'C1300563', 'cui_str': 'ug/mg'}, {'cui': 'C4517859', 'cui_str': 'Seven point five'}, {'cui': 'C0205082', 'cui_str': 'Severe (severity modifier) (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0205217', 'cui_str': 'Increased (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0001925', 'cui_str': 'Albuminuria'}, {'cui': 'C0205250', 'cui_str': 'High (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C4324389', 'cui_str': 'Cardiovascular risk'}]","[{'cui': 'C2974540', 'cui_str': 'canagliflozin'}, {'cui': 'C1696465', 'cui_str': 'placebo'}]","[{'cui': 'C0011065', 'cui_str': 'Death'}, {'cui': 'C0332181', 'cui_str': 'Annual (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0022646', 'cui_str': 'Kidney'}, {'cui': 'C0031843', 'cui_str': 'function'}, {'cui': 'C0036043', 'cui_str': 'Safety'}]",2266.0,0.360591,Cardiovascular and safety outcomes were mostly consistent across albuminuria levels including increased risks for amputation across albuminuria subgroups ( P heterogeneity=0.66).,"[{'ForeName': 'Brendon L', 'Initials': 'BL', 'LastName': 'Neuen', 'Affiliation': 'The George Institute for Global Health, University of New South Wales, Sydney, Australia.'}, {'ForeName': 'Toshiaki', 'Initials': 'T', 'LastName': 'Ohkuma', 'Affiliation': 'The George Institute for Global Health, University of New South Wales, Sydney, Australia.'}, {'ForeName': 'Bruce', 'Initials': 'B', 'LastName': 'Neal', 'Affiliation': 'The George Institute for Global Health, University of New South Wales, Sydney, Australia.'}, {'ForeName': 'David R', 'Initials': 'DR', 'LastName': 'Matthews', 'Affiliation': 'Oxford Centre for Diabetes, Endocrinology and Metabolism, Harris Manchester College, University of Oxford, Oxford, UK.'}, {'ForeName': 'Dick', 'Initials': 'D', 'LastName': 'de Zeeuw', 'Affiliation': 'University Medical Center Groningen, University of Groningen, Groningen, The Netherlands.'}, {'ForeName': 'Kenneth W', 'Initials': 'KW', 'LastName': 'Mahaffey', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Medicine, Stanford Center for Clinical Research, Stanford University School of Medicine, Stanford, California.'}, {'ForeName': 'Greg', 'Initials': 'G', 'LastName': 'Fulcher', 'Affiliation': 'Royal North Shore Hospital, Sydney, Australia; and.'}, {'ForeName': 'Qiang', 'Initials': 'Q', 'LastName': 'Li', 'Affiliation': 'The George Institute for Global Health, University of New South Wales, Sydney, Australia.'}, {'ForeName': 'Meg', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Jardine', 'Affiliation': 'The George Institute for Global Health, University of New South Wales, Sydney, Australia.'}, {'ForeName': 'Richard', 'Initials': 'R', 'LastName': 'Oh', 'Affiliation': 'Janssen Research & Development, LLC, Raritan, New Jersey.'}, {'ForeName': 'Hiddo L', 'Initials': 'HL', 'LastName': 'Heerspink', 'Affiliation': 'The George Institute for Global Health, University of New South Wales, Sydney, Australia.'}, {'ForeName': 'Vlado', 'Initials': 'V', 'LastName': 'Perkovic', 'Affiliation': 'The George Institute for Global Health, University of New South Wales, Sydney, Australia; vperkovic@georgeinstitute.org.au.'}]",Journal of the American Society of Nephrology : JASN,['10.1681/ASN.2019010064']
2032,30952565,"Integrated HIV testing, prevention, and treatment intervention for key populations in India: a cluster-randomised trial.","BACKGROUND
To achieve reductions in HIV incidence, we need strategies to engage key population at risk for HIV in low-income and middle-income countries. We evaluated the effectiveness of integrated care centres in India that provided single-venue HIV testing, prevention, and treatment services for people who inject drugs (PWID) and men who have sex with men (MSM).
METHODS
We did baseline respondent-driven sampling surveys in 27 sites across India, and selected 22 of these (12 PWID and ten MSM) for a cluster randomised trial on the basis of high HIV prevalence and logistical considerations. We used stratified (by PWID and MSM), restricted randomisation to allocate sites to either the integrated care intervention or usual care (11 sites per group). We implemented integrated care centres in 11 cities (six PWID integrated care centres embedded within opioid agonist treatment centres and five MSM centres within government-sponsored health services), with a single integrated care centre per city in all but one city. After a 2-year intervention phase, we did respondent-driven sampling evaluation surveys of target population members who were aged 18 years or older at all sites. The primary outcome was self-reported HIV testing in the previous 12 months (recent testing), determined via the evaluation survey. We used a biometric identification system to estimate integrated care centre exposure (visited an integrated care centre at least once) among evaluation survey participants at intervention sites. This trial is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, number NCT01686750.
FINDINGS
Between Oct 1, 2012, and Dec 19, 2013, we recruited 11 993 PWID and 9997 MSM in the baseline survey and, between Aug, 1 2016, and May 27, 2017, surveyed 11 721 PWID and 10 005 MSM in the evaluation survey using respondent-driven sampling, across the 22 trial sites. During the intervention phase, integrated care centres provided HIV testing for 14 698 unique clients (7630 PWID and 7068 MSM. In the primary population-level analysis, recent HIV testing was 31% higher at integrated care centres than at usual care sites (adjusted prevalence ratio [PR] 1·31, 95% CI 0·95-1·81, p=0·09). Among survey participants at intervention sites, integrated care centre exposure was lower than expected (median exposure 40% at PWID sites and 24% at MSM sites). In intervention sites, survey participants who visited an integrated care centre were more likely to report recent HIV testing than were participants who had not (adjusted PR 3·46, 2·94-4·06).
INTERPRETATION
Although integrated care centres increased HIV testing among visitors, our low exposure findings suggest that the scale-up of a single integrated care centre in most cities was insufficient to serve the large PWID and MSM populations.

However, no CD treatment study has focused on a relaxation program alone. We developed a pilot study to assess whether a therapy completely based on a relaxation program could improve the physical and mental symptomatologies of patients with CD. Fifteen persons were included in the experimental group, which received individual sessions of aquatic (Watsu) therapy (WT) and autogenic training (AT). In addition, 12 persons were included in passive control group. We administered different questionnaires related to quality of life (SF-36), pain (Toronto Western Spasmodic Torticollis Rating Scale (TWSTRS) and Visual Analog Scale (VAS)) and mood (Beck Depression Inventory (BDI-II) and State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI)). A significant interaction was observed between treatment and time with regard to the SF-36, VAS, and TWSTRS within the experimental group ( p < 0.01). The BDI-II showed depression decrease as a simple effect ( p < 0.05), and the STAI did not change. No effects were found with regard to the control group. In this exploratory study, we found that a therapy based on whole body relaxation improved the symptoms of patients with CD.

2035,31575823,Deep Friction Massage in the Management of Patellar Tendinopathy in Athletes: Short-Term Clinical Outcomes.,"CONTEXT
Deep friction massage (DFM) is often used in the treatment of tendinopathies; however, the pressure applied may vary and interfere with the obtained results.
OBJECTIVE
To assess whether the immediate effects of DFM on pain (pain intensity and time to onset of analgesia) and muscle strength are dependent on the pressure applied during the DFM application in athletes with patellar tendinopathy.
DESIGN
Randomized, controlled, cross-over trial.
SETTING
University research laboratory (institutional).
PARTICIPANTS
Ten athletes with diagnosis of unilateral patellar tendinopathy (age 27.90 [5.24] y).
INTERVENTIONS
All participants attended 4 sessions, 3 treatment sessions with DFM applied with different pressures (the mean pressure-previously determined for each participant-and the mean pressure ± 25%) and a control session, each of which was separated by 48 hours.
MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES
Pain (intensity upon palpation and time to onset of analgesia), and muscle strength of knee extensors were assessed before and immediately after each session.
RESULTS
Pain intensity changed significantly over time (F1,9 = 52.364; P < .001; ηp2=.853) and among sessions (F3,27 = 82.588; P < .001; ηp2=.902), with a significant interaction for group × time (F3,27 = 19.841; P < .001; ηp2=.688). The knee extensors strength did not change significantly over time (F1,9 = 2.240; P = .17; ηp2=.199), nor a significant interaction for session × time was observed (F3,27 = 3.276; P = .07; ηp2=.267). Regardless of the pressure applied, the time to onset of analgesia was not significantly different (F2,18 = 1.026; P > .05; ηp2=.102).
CONCLUSION
It was shown that DFM induces an immediate reduction in pain intensity upon palpation, regardless of the pressure performed. Notwithstanding, the reader should take into account the small sample size and the caution needed in the results' interpretation.",2019,"RESULTS

2036,30712391,Esmirtazapine treatment of postmenopausal vasomotor symptoms: two randomized controlled trials.,"OBJECTIVES
Two identical 12-week, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multi-arm, parallel-group Phase III studies (Study P012, NCT00560833; Study P013, NCT00535288) evaluated the efficacy and safety of esmirtazapine, an investigational medicine, for the treatment of moderate to severe vasomotor symptoms (VMS) in postmenopausal women.
METHODS
Participants were randomized to placebo or esmirtazapine (2.25, 4.5, 9.0, or 18.0 mg). Co-primary efficacy endpoints (daily frequency and severity of moderate to severe VMS, both at weeks 4 and 12) were based on participative LogPad daily diaries. Adverse events (AEs) were recorded.
RESULTS
In Studies P012 and P013, 942 and 946 participants were randomized, respectively. Compared with placebo, esmirtazapine significantly reduced the mean daily frequency by 1.4-2.2 moderate to severe VMS at weeks 4 and 12 (both ≥4.5 mg) and mean daily severity by 0.06-0.08 symptoms at weeks 4 (≥4.5 mg) and 12 (9.0 mg P012; 18.0 mg P013 only). Esmirtazapine was generally well tolerated with a more favorable safety profile at lower doses. Somnolence and fatigue were the most frequently reported AEs.

2037,30753861,A comprehensive multicomponent school-based educational intervention did not affect fruit and vegetable intake at the 14-year follow-up.,"The intake of fruit and vegetables is associated with beneficial health outcomes, and studies aimed at increasing fruit and vegetable intake lack long-term follow-up. The primary objective of this study was to evaluate the long-term (14-year) effects of a multicomponent school-based educational intervention targeted to increase fruit and vegetable intake in children. The secondary objective was to evaluate the potential synergistic effect between free school fruit and the educational program. A cluster randomized school-based intervention was initiated in 2001 in Norway, known as the Fruit and Vegetable Make the Marks study. In total, 38 schools were randomized; for the intervention (n = 18) and as control schools (n = 20). A subsample of the intervention schools (n = 9) were additionally given free school fruit, resulting in two intervention groups - one with and one without free fruit. Participants completed questionnaires in September 2001 (baseline, mean age 11.8), May 2002 (at the end of the intervention), May 2003, May 2005, September 2009 and throughout 2016 (mean age 26.5). Of 1950 participants, 982 (50.4%) completed the 14-year follow-up and were considered as the current study sample. Analysis yielded no 14-year effects of the educational program on fruit and vegetable intake. A synergistic effect between the educational program and free fruit was not observed either. Future studies might benefit from increased focus on more extensive parental involvement, increased home availability, and a longer intervention period. However, more long-term studies are needed to evaluate the effects of school-based interventions into adulthood.

2038,30817329,"Insights Into a ""Negative"" ICU Trial Derived From Gene Expression Profiling.","OBJECTIVES
Randomized controlled trials in the ICU often fail to show differences in endpoints between groups. We sought to explore reasons for this at a molecular level by analyzing transcriptomic data from a recent negative trial. Our objectives were to determine if randomization successfully balanced transcriptomic features between groups, to assess transcriptomic heterogeneity among the study subjects included, and to determine if the study drug had any effect at the gene expression level.
DESIGN
Bioinformatics analysis of transcriptomic and clinical data collected in the course of a randomized controlled trial.
SETTING
Tertiary academic mixed medical-surgical ICU.
PATIENTS
Adult, critically ill patients expected to require invasive mechanical ventilation more than 48 hours.
INTERVENTIONS
Lactoferrin or placebo delivered enterally and via an oral swab for up to 28 days.
MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS
We found no major imbalances in transcriptomic features between groups. Unsupervised analysis did not reveal distinct clusters among patients at the time of enrollment. There were marked differences in gene expression between early and later time points. Patients in the lactoferrin group showed changes in the expression of genes associated with immune pathways known to be associated with lactoferrin.
CONCLUSIONS
In this clinical trial, transcriptomic data provided a useful complement to clinical data, suggesting that the reasons for the negative result were less likely related to the biological efficacy of the study drug, and may instead have been related to poor sensitivity of the clinical outcomes. In larger studies, transcriptomics may also prove useful in predicting response to treatment.",2019,"Patients in the lactoferrin group showed changes in the expression of genes associated with immune pathways known to be associated with lactoferrin.

2039,31521496,Lavage through percutaneous catheter drains in severe acute pancreatitis: Does it help?A randomized control trial.,"AIMS
There is no study comparing large volume lavage through image guided percutaneously placed drains in severe acute pancreatitis.
METHODS
Of the 114 randomized patients, 60 eligible candidates were randomly allocated to - Lavage Treatment (LT) group (28 patients) and Dependent Drainage (DD) group (32 patients). Primary end point was reversal of pre-existing organ failure, development of new onset organ failure, need for surgery, mortality and hospital stay.
RESULTS
Both the groups were comparable in terms of demographic data, onset and severity of pancreatitis. LT group had higher infected pancreatic necrosis (75% vs 50%,p = 0.047). On intention to treat analysis, lavage treatment group showed a significant reversal of persistent organ failure (84% vs 50%, p = 0.23), reduction in APACHEII scores (3.5 ± 3.405 vs 1.16 ± 3.811 p = 0.012), as measured at the time of placement of PCD to cessation of intervention. There was no difference in development of new onset organ failure in the two groups (25% vs37.5% p=.290). 75% in LT group and 69% in DD group improved with PCD alone. There was no difference in the catheter related complications and number of catheters used. The need for surgical intervention was comparable in two groups (18.8% vs 14.3% p=.737). There was a trend toward decreased mortality in group A (18.8% vs 28.8% p=.370).

2040,30829117,Robot-assisted gait training is not superior to intensive overground walking in multiple sclerosis with severe disability (the RAGTIME study): A randomized controlled trial.,"BACKGROUND
Rehabilitation may attenuate the impact on mobility of patients with progressive multiple sclerosis (MS) and severe gait disabilities.
OBJECTIVE
In this randomized controlled trial, we compared robot-assisted gait training (RAGT) with conventional therapy (CT) in terms of gait speed, mobility, balance, fatigue and quality of life (QoL).
METHODS
Seventy-two patients with MS (expanded disability status scale score 6.0-7.0) were randomized to receive 12 training sessions over a 4-week period of RAGT ( n = 36) or overground walking therapy ( n = 36). The primary outcome was gait speed, assessed by the timed 25-foot walk test. Secondary outcome measures were walking endurance, balance, depression, fatigue and QoL. Tests were performed at baseline, intermediate, at the end of treatment and at a 3-month follow-up.
RESULTS
Sixty-six patients completed the treatments. At the end of treatment with respect to baseline, both groups significantly improved gait speed ( p < 0.001) and most secondary outcomes without between-group differences. Outcome values returned to baseline at follow-up.
CONCLUSIONS
RAGT was not superior to CT in improving gait speed in patients with progressive MS and severe gait disabilities where a positive, even transitory, effect of rehabilitation was observed.",2020,"At the end of treatment with respect to baseline, both groups significantly improved gait speed ( p < 0.001) and most secondary outcomes without between-group differences.","['patients with progressive multiple sclerosis (MS) and severe gait disabilities', '\n\n\nSeventy-two patients with MS (expanded disability status scale score 6.0-7.0', 'multiple sclerosis with severe disability']","['12 training sessions over a 4-week period of RAGT ( n\u2009=\u200936) or overground walking therapy', 'robot-assisted gait training (RAGT) with conventional therapy (CT', 'RAGT', 'CT', 'Robot-assisted gait training']","['gait speed, mobility, balance, fatigue and quality of life (QoL', 'walking endurance, balance, depression, fatigue and QoL.

2041,30890314,Barbed Versus Conventional Suture for Uterine Repair During Caesarean Section: A Randomized Controlled Study.,"OBJECTIVE
This study sought to compare the short-term outcome of uterine incision repair during a Caesarean section (CS) using a bidirectional knotless barbed suture versus polyglactin suture.
METHODS
A randomized controlled trial was conducted at a university hospital. Participants undergoing a CS were randomly assigned to uterine incision closure by bidirectional knotless barbed suture (group A) or polyglactin (group B). The primary outcome was the time needed to repair the uterine incision. The analysis was by intent to treat. A sample size of 35 per group (n = 70) was planned to detect a 30% reduction in uterine repair time (Canadian Task Force Classification I).
RESULTS
From July 2016 through October 2017, 150 women were screened, and 70 were statistically analyzed: group A (n = 35) and group B (n = 35). Time to complete uterine incision repair was 308 ± 57 seconds for group A and 411 ± 74 seconds for group B (P < 0.001). Total surgery time (33.4 ± 8.8 minutes vs. 33.2 ± 7.5 minutes; P = 0.64) was not significantly different between groups A and B, respectively.

2042,31148155,Amustaline-glutathione pathogen-reduced red blood cell concentrates for transfusion-dependent thalassaemia.,"Transfusion-dependent thalassaemia (TDT) requires red blood cell concentrates (RBCC) to prevent complications of anaemia, but carries risk of infection. Pathogen reduction of RBCC offers potential to reduce infectious risk. We evaluated the efficacy and safety of pathogen-reduced (PR) Amustaline-Glutathione (A-GSH) RBCC for TDT. Patients were randomized to a blinded 2-period crossover treatment sequence for six transfusions over 8-10 months with Control and A-GSH-RBCC. The efficacy outcome utilized non-inferiority analysis with 90% power to detect a 15% difference in transfused haemoglobin (Hb), and the safety outcome was the incidence of antibodies to A-GSH-PR-RBCC. By intent to treat (80 patients), 12·5 ± 1·9 RBCC were transfused in each period. Storage durations of A-GSH and C-RBCC were similar (8·9 days). Mean A-GSH-RBCC transfused Hb (g/kg/day) was not inferior to Control (0·113 ± 0·04 vs. 0·111 ± 0·04, P = 0·373, paired t-test).

2043,30809728,Is three-dimensional laparoscopic spleen preserving splenic hilar lymphadenectomy for gastric cancer better than that of two-dimensional? Analysis of a prospective clinical research study.,"BACKGROUND
Three-dimensional (3D) systems for laparoscopy provide surgeons with additional information on spatial depth not found in two-dimensional (2D) systems.
METHODS
This study enrolled 156 spleen-preserving splenic hilar lymphadenectomy (LSPSHL) patients in a randomized controlled trial (ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier NCT02327481) at the department of gastric surgery at Fujian Medical University Union Hospital between January 2015 and April 2016. The short-term efficacies were compared between the treatment groups. The unedited videos of 80 LSPSHL (40 procedures each for 3D and 2D) were rated for technical performance using the Generic Error Rating Tool.
RESULTS
The data for 156 LSPSHL patients indicate that the estimated blood loss (EBL) (3D vs 2D = 66.3 vs. 99.0, P = 0.046) was significantly less in the 3D group. The postoperative recovery and complication rates were similar (P > 0.05). And there were no deaths within 30 days of surgery. Two observers analyzed 80 videos of LSPSHL. The results showed that there were fewer grasping-errors made in the 3D group than in the 2D group when dissecting the inferior pole region of spleen (IPRS) (P = 0.016) and the superior pole region of spleen (SPRS) (P = 0.022). Additionally, the inter-rater reliability was high regarding grasping-errors in the IPRS (intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) 0.92) and in the SPRS (ICC 0.83). The ICC for the total number of errors was 0.82. The mean of errors in the 3D group (3D vs. 2D = 20.7 vs. 23.5, P = 0.022) was less than the 2D group.
CONCLUSIONS
Compared with 2D LSPSHL, 3D technology reduces EBL and technical errors during splenic hilar dissection.",2019,The results showed that there were fewer grasping-errors made in the 3D group than in the

2045,31598912,Treatment of metabolic acidosis with sodium bicarbonate delays progression of chronic kidney disease: the UBI Study.,"BACKGROUND
Metabolic acidosis is associated with accelerated progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD). Whether treatment of metabolic acidosis with sodium bicarbonate improves kidney and patient survival in CKD is unclear.
METHODS
We conducted a randomized (ratio 1:1). open-label, controlled trial (NCT number: NCT01640119. www.clinicaltrials.gov ) to determine the effect in patients with CKD stage 3-5 of treatment of metabolic acidosis with sodium bicarbonate (SB) on creatinine doubling (primary endpoint), all-cause mortality and time to renal replacement therapy compared to standard care (SC) over 36-months. Parametric, non-parametric tests and survival analyses were used to assess the effect of SB on these outcomes.
RESULTS
A total of 376 and 364 individuals with mean (SD) age 67.8 (14.9) years, creatinine clearance 30 (12) ml/min, and serum bicarbonate 21.5 (2.4) mmol/l were enrolled in SB and SC, respectively. Mean (SD) follow-up was 29.6 (9.8) vs 30.3 (10.7) months in SC and SB. respectively. The mean (SD) daily doses of SB was 1.13 (0.10). 1.12 (0.11). and 1.09 (0.12) mmol/kg*bw/day in the first, second and third year of follow-up, respectively. A total of 87 participants reached the primary endpoint [62 (17.0%) in SC vs 25 (6.6%) in SB, p < 0.001). Similarly, 71 participants [45 (12.3%) in SC and 26 (6.9%) in SB, p = 0.016] started dialysis while 37 participants [25 (6.8%) in SC and 12 (3.1%) in SB, p = 0.004] died. There were no significant effect of SB on blood pressure, total body weight or hospitalizations.

Consecutive patients with advanced cirrhosis (Child-Pugh class B or C) and acute variceal bleeding who had been treated with vasoactive drugs plus endoscopic therapy were randomly assigned (2:1) to receive either early TIPS (done within 72 h after initial endoscopy [early TIPS group]) or standard treatment (vasoactive drugs continued to day 5, followed by propranolol plus endoscopic band ligation for the prevention of rebleeding, with TIPS as rescue therapy when needed [control group]). Randomisation was done by web-based randomisation system using a Pocock and Simon's minimisation method with Child-Pugh class (B vs C) and presence or absence of active bleeding as adjustment factors. The primary outcome was transplantation-free survival, analysed in the intention-to-treat population, excluding individuals subsequently found to be ineligible for enrolment. This study is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, number NCT01370161, and is completed.
FINDINGS
From June 26, 2011, to Sept 30, 2017, 373 patients were screened and 132 patients were randomly assigned to the early TIPS group (n=86) or to the control group (n=46). After exclusion of three individuals subsequently found to be ineligible for enrolment (two patients in the early TIPS group with non-cirrhotic portal hypertension or hepatocellular carcinoma, and one patient in the control group due to non-cirrhotic portal hypertension), 84 patients in the early TIPS group and 45 patients in the control group were included in the intention-to-treat population. 15 (18%) patients in the early TIPS group and 15 (33%) in the control group died; two (2%) patients in the early TIPS group and one (2%) in the control group underwent liver transplantation. Transplantation-free survival was higher in the early TIPS group than in the control group (hazard ratio 0·50, 95% CI 0·25-0·98; p=0·04). Transplantation-free survival at 6 weeks was 99% (95% CI 97-100) in the early TIPS group compared with 84% (75-96; absolute risk difference 15% [95% CI 5-48]; p=0·02) and at 1 year was 86% (79-94) in the early TIPS group versus 73% (62-88) in the control group (absolute risk difference 13% [95% CI 2-28]; p=0·046). There were no significant differences between the two groups in the incidence of hepatic hydrothorax (two [2%] of 84 patients in the early TIPS group vs one [2%] of 45 in the control group; p=0·96), spontaneous bacterial peritonitis (one [1%] vs three [7%]; p=0·12), hepatic encephalopathy (29 [35%] vs 16 [36%]; p=1·00), hepatorenal syndrome (four [5%] vs six [13%]; p=0·10), and hepatocellular carcinoma (four [5%] vs one [2%]; p=0·68). There was no significant difference in the number of patients who experienced other serious adverse events (ten [12%] vs 11 [24%]; p=0·07) or non-serious adverse events (21 [25%] vs 19 [42%]; p=0·05) between groups.
INTERPRETATION
Early TIPS with covered stents improved transplantation-free survival in selected patients with advanced cirrhosis and acute variceal bleeding and should therefore be preferred to the current standard of care.

2048,31153846,Absorb Bioresorbable Scaffold Versus Xience Metallic Stent for Prevention of Restenosis Following Percutaneous Coronary Intervention in Patients at High Risk of Restenosis: Rationale and Design of the COMPARE ABSORB Trial.,"BACKGROUND
The advent of bioresorbable vascular scaffolds (BVS) was considered as a potential improvement in percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) after the groundbreaking development of drug eluting stents (DES). However, the clinical performance, long-term safety and efficacy of BVS in complex coronary lesions remain uncertain. COMPARE ABSORB, a multicenter, single blind, prospective randomized trial, aims to compare the clinical outcomes between the Absorb BVS and Xience everolimus-eluting metallic stent (EES) in patients with coronary artery disease and a high risk of restenosis.
DESIGN
COMPARE ABSORB is designed to enroll 2100 patients at up to 45 European sites. Enrolled patients will possess high risk for restenosis due to clinical profile or coronary lesion complexity and will undergo elective or emergent PCI. Once included in the study, patients will receive either Absorb BVS or Xience EES. Specific advice on implantation technique including mandatory pre-dilatation, sizing and post-dilatation (PSP), will be used in the Absorb BVS arm. The primary endpoint is target lesion failure (TLF), a device-oriented composite endpoint (cardiac death, target vessel myocardial infarction and clinically-indicated target lesion revascularization). The trial is powered to assess non-inferiority of Absorb BVS compared with Xience EES with a predetermined non-inferiority margin of 4.5% at 1 year after index procedure. The clinical follow-up will continue for 7 years.
CONCLUSIONS
The prospective COMPARE ABSORB randomized trial (ClinicalTrials.govNCT02486068) will help to assess the long-term safety and efficacy of Absorb BVS compared with Xience EES in the treatments of patients with complex coronary artery disease and a high attendant risk of restenosis.",2019,"The primary endpoint is target lesion failure (TLF), a device-oriented composite endpoint (cardiac death, target vessel myocardial infarction and clinically-indicated target lesion revascularization).","['Enrolled patients will possess high risk for restenosis due to clinical profile or coronary lesion complexity and will undergo elective or emergent PCI', 'patients with complex coronary artery disease and a high attendant risk of restenosis', 'patients at high risk of restenosis', 'patients with coronary artery disease and a high risk of restenosis', 'enroll 2100 patients at up to 45 European sites']","['Absorb BVS', 'Specific advice on implantation technique including mandatory pre-dilatation, sizing and post-dilatation (PSP', 'Absorb BVS and Xience everolimus-eluting metallic stent (EES', 'percutaneous coronary intervention', 'Xience EES', 'Absorb bioresorbable scaffold versus Xience metallic stent', 'Absorb BVS or Xience EES', 'BVS']","['target lesion failure (TLF), a device-oriented composite endpoint (cardiac death, target vessel myocardial infarction and clinically-indicated target lesion revascularization']","[{'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C4319571', 'cui_str': 'High risk (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0333186', 'cui_str': 'Restenosis'}, {'cui': 'C0678226', 'cui_str': 'Due to (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0205210', 'cui_str': 'Clinical (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0221198', 'cui_str': 'Lesion (morphologic abnormality)'}, {'cui': 'C0439608', 'cui_str': 'Elective (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0439855', 'cui_str': 'Complex (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C1956346', 'cui_str': 'Coronary Artery Disease'}, {'cui': 'C0205250', 'cui_str': 'High (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0035647', 'cui_str': 'Risk'}, {'cui': 'C0332167', 'cui_str': 'High risk of (contextual qualifier) (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0239307', 'cui_str': 'European (ethnic group)'}, {'cui': 'C0205145', 'cui_str': 'Site (attribute)'}]","[{'cui': 'C0205369', 'cui_str': 'Specified'}, {'cui': 'C0021107', 'cui_str': 'Insertion procedure'}, {'cui': 'C0025664', 'cui_str': 'techniques'}, {'cui': 'C0332257', 'cui_str': 'Including (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0740175', 'cui_str': 'Before values (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C1322279', 'cui_str': 'Dilation'}, {'cui': 'C0687676', 'cui_str': 'After values (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C1868193', 'cui_str': 'PSP'}, {'cui': 'C0541315', 'cui_str': 'everolimus'}, {'cui': 'C0038257', 'cui_str': 'Stents'}, {'cui': 'C1532338', 'cui_str': 'Percutaneous Coronary Revascularization'}, {'cui': 'C0337143', 'cui_str': 'Scaffold, device (physical object)'}]","[{'cui': 'C0014742', 'cui_str': 'Erythema Multiforme'}, {'cui': 'C0231174', 'cui_str': 'Failure (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C0220819', 'cui_str': 'devices'}, {'cui': 'C0205199', 'cui_str': 'Composite (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0376297', 'cui_str': 'Cardiac Death'}, {'cui': 'C0449618', 'cui_str': 'Target vessel (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0027051', 'cui_str': 'Heart Attack'}, {'cui': 'C1444656', 'cui_str': 'Indicated'}, {'cui': 'C0581603', 'cui_str': 'Revascularization - action (qualifier value)'}]",,0.113332,"The primary endpoint is target lesion failure (TLF), a device-oriented composite endpoint (cardiac death, target vessel myocardial infarction and clinically-indicated target lesion revascularization).","[{'ForeName': 'Chun Chin', 'Initials': 'CC', 'LastName': 'Chang', 'Affiliation': 'Thoraxcenter, Erasmus University Medical Center, Rotterdam, the Netherlands;

2049,31855037,Gender differences in response to metacognitive training in people with first-episode psychosis.,"INTRODUCTION
The study aimed to assess gender differences in the efficacy of metacognitive training (MCT) in people with first-episode psychosis in terms of symptoms and cognitive insight as a primary outcome and other metacognitive and social cognition measures as a secondary outcome.
METHOD
A multicenter, controlled, randomized clinical trial was performed including 122 patients with first-episode psychosis. A total of 8 weekly group sessions of MCT or a psychoeducational intervention were performed. Patients were assessed at baseline, posttreatment, and follow-up. Symptoms were assessed with the Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale and cognitive insight with the Beck Cognitive Insight Scale. A battery of questionnaires on metacognition and social cognition variables was included to assess secondary outcomes. A regression model for repeated measures was performed by gender.
RESULTS
Women of the MCT group improved more in general symptoms (p = .046), self-certainty (p = .010), and a composite index of the cognitive insight (p = .031). Moreover, women in the MCT group showed a reduction in personalizing bias (p = .021) and irrational beliefs related to dependence (p = .024), while men in the MCT group showed an improvement in intolerance to frustration (p = .017). In the Jumping to Conclusions task, men in the MCT group improved in the affective task (p = .021) while no differences were found in women.
CONCLUSIONS
Our results suggest that MCT is more effective in reducing symptoms and improving cognitive insight for women than men. Moreover, different irrational beliefs and cognitive biases were reduced differently considering gender. MCT could be a gender-sensitive intervention.

2050,31200321,Prognostic and predictive value of AJCC-8 staging in the phase III EORTC1325/KEYNOTE-054 trial of pembrolizumab vs placebo in resected high-risk stage III melanoma.,"BACKGROUND
The American Joint Committee on Cancer-8 (AJCC) classification of melanoma was implemented in January 2018. It was based on data gathered when checkpoint inhibitors were not used as adjuvant therapy in stage III melanoma. The European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) 1325/KEYNOTE-054 double-blind phase III trial evaluated pembrolizumab vs placebo in AJCC-7 stage IIIA (excluding lymph node metastasis ≤1 mm), IIIB or IIIC (without in-transit metastasis) patients after complete lymphadenectomy.
PATIENTS, METHODS AND RESULTS
Patients (n = 1019) were randomised 1:1 to pembrolizumab 200 mg or placebo every 3 weeks (total of 18 doses, ∼1 year). At 1.25-year median follow-up, pembrolizumab prolonged relapse-free survival (RFS) in the total population (1-year RFS rate: 75.4% vs 61.0%; hazard ratio [HR] 0.57; logrank P < 0.0001) and consistently in the AJCC-7 subgroups. Prognostic and predictive values of AJCC-8 for RFS were evaluated in this study. Patient distribution according to the AJCC-8 stage subgroups was 8% (IIIA), 34.7% (IIIB), 49.7% (IIIC), 3.7% (IIID) and 3.8% (unknown). AJCC-8 classification was strongly associated with RFS (HRs for stage IIIB, IIIC and IIID vs IIIA were 4.0, 5.7 and 12.2, respectively) but showed no predictive importance for the treatment comparison regarding RFS (test for interaction: P = 0.68). The 1-year RFS rate for pembrolizumab vs placebo and the HRs (99% confidence interval) within each AJCC-8 subgroup were as follows: stage IIIA (92.7% vs 92.5%; 0.76 [0.11-5.43]), IIIB (79.0% vs 65.5%; 0.59 [0.35-0.99]), IIIC (73.6% vs 53.9%; 0.48 [0.33-0.70]) and IIID (50.0% vs 33.3%; 0.69 [0.24-2.00]).

2051,31320747,A head-to-head evaluation of the diagnostic efficacy and costs of trio versus singleton exome sequencing analysis.,"Diagnostic exome sequencing (ES) can be performed on the proband only (singleton; sES) or with additional samples, often including both biological parents with the proband (trio; tES). In this study we sought to compare the efficiencies of exome sequencing (ES) by trio (tES) versus singleton (sES) approach, determine costs, and identify factors to consider when deciding on optimal implementation strategies for the diagnosis of monogenic disorders. We undertook ES in 30 trios and analysed each proband's sES and tES data in parallel. Two teams were randomly allocated to either sES or tES analysis for each case and blinded to each other's work. Each task was timed and cost analyses were based on time taken and diagnostic yield. We modelled three scenarios to determine the factors to consider in the implementation of tES. sES diagnosed 11/30 (36.7%) cases and tES identified one additional diagnosis (12/30 (40.0%)). tES obviated the need for Sanger segregation, reduced the number of variants for curation, and had lower cost-per-diagnosis when considering analysis alone. When sequencing costs were included, tES nearly doubled the cost of sES. Reflexing to tES in those who remain undiagnosed after sES was cost-saving over tES in all as first-line. This approach requires a large differential in diagnostic yield between sES and tES for maximal benefit given current sequencing costs. tES may be preferable when scaling up laboratory throughput due to efficiency gains and opportunity cost considerations. Our findings are relevant to clinicians, laboratories and health services considering tES over sES.",2019,Reflexing to tES in those who remain undiagnosed after sES was cost-saving over tES in all as first-line.,"[""30 trios and analysed each proband's sES and tES data in parallel""]","['exome sequencing (ES) by trio (tES) versus singleton (sES) approach', 'Diagnostic exome sequencing (ES', 'sES or tES']",[],"[{'cui': 'C0702111', 'cui_str': 'Proband (finding)'}]","[{'cui': 'C3178814', 'cui_str': 'Exome'}, {'cui': 'C1292724', 'cui_str': 'Procedure approach'}, {'cui': 'C0348026', 'cui_str': 'Diagnostic'}]",[],,0.0342913,Reflexing to tES in those who remain undiagnosed after sES was cost-saving over tES in all as first-line.,"[{'ForeName': 'Tiong Yang', 'Initials': 'TY', 'LastName': 'Tan', 'Affiliation': 'Victorian Clinical Genetics Services, Melbourne, Australia. tiong.tan@vcgs.org.au.'}, {'ForeName': 'Sebastian', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Lunke', 'Affiliation': 'Victorian Clinical Genetics Services, Melbourne, Australia.'}, {'ForeName': 'Belinda', 'Initials': 'B', 'LastName': 'Chong', 'Affiliation': 'Victorian Clinical Genetics Services, Melbourne, Australia.'}, {'ForeName': 'Dean', 'Initials': 'D', 'LastName': 'Phelan', 'Affiliation': 'Victorian Clinical Genetics Services, Melbourne, Australia.'}, {'ForeName': 'Miriam', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Fanjul-Fernandez', 'Affiliation': 'Victorian Clinical Genetics Services, Melbourne, Australia.'}, {'ForeName': 'Justine E', 'Initials': 'JE', 'LastName': 'Marum', 'Affiliation': 'Victorian Clinical Genetics Services, Melbourne, Australia.'}, {'ForeName': 'Vanessa Siva', 'Initials': 'VS', 'LastName': 'Kumar', 'Affiliation': 'Victorian Clinical Genetics Services, Melbourne, Australia.'}, {'ForeName': 'Zornitza', 'Initials': 'Z', 'LastName': 'Stark', 'Affiliation': 'Victorian Clinical Genetics Services, Melbourne, Australia.'}, {'ForeName': 'Alison', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Yeung', 'Affiliation': 'Victorian Clinical Genetics Services, Melbourne, Australia.'}, {'ForeName': 'Natasha J', 'Initials': 'NJ', 'LastName': 'Brown', 'Affiliation': 'Victorian Clinical Genetics Services, Melbourne, Australia.'}, {'ForeName': 'Chloe', 'Initials': 'C', 'LastName': 'Stutterd', 'Affiliation': 'Victorian Clinical Genetics Services, Melbourne, Australia.'}, {'ForeName': 'Martin B', 'Initials': 'MB', 'LastName': 'Delatycki', 'Affiliation': 'Victorian Clinical Genetics Services, Melbourne, Australia.'}, {'ForeName': 'Simon', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Sadedin', 'Affiliation': 'Victorian Clinical Genetics Services, Melbourne, Australia.'}, {'ForeName': 'Melissa', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Martyn', 'Affiliation': ""Murdoch Children's Research Institute, Melbourne, Australia.""}, {'ForeName': 'Ilias', 'Initials': 'I', 'LastName': 'Goranitis', 'Affiliation': ""Murdoch Children's Research Institute, Melbourne, Australia.""}, {'ForeName': 'Natalie', 'Initials': 'N', 'LastName': 'Thorne', 'Affiliation': ""Murdoch Children's Research Institute, Melbourne, Australia.""}, {'ForeName': 'Clara L', 'Initials': 'CL', 'LastName': 'Gaff', 'Affiliation': ""Murdoch Children's Research Institute, Melbourne, Australia.""}, {'ForeName': 'Susan M', 'Initials': 'SM', 'LastName': 'White', 'Affiliation': 'Victorian Clinical Genetics Services, Melbourne, Australia. sue.white@vcgs.org.au.'}]",European journal of human genetics : EJHG,['10.1038/s41431-019-0471-9']
2052,31256141,Long-Term Impact of Intelligent Monitoring Technology on People with Cognitive Impairment: An Observational Study.,"BACKGROUND
Interactive smart home systems are particularly useful for people with cognitive impairment.
OBJECTIVE
To investigate the long-term effects of Assistive Technology (AT) combined with tailored non-pharmacological interventions for people with cognitive impairment.
METHODS
18 participants (12 with mild cognitive impairment and 6 with Alzheimer's disease) took part in the study that we evenly allocated in one of three groups: 1) experimental group (EG), 2) control group 1 (CG1), and 3) control group 2 (CG2). EG received the system installed at home for 4 to 12 months, during which they received tailored non-pharmacological interventions according to system observations. CG1 received tailored interventions for the same period, but only according to state-of-the-art self-reporting methods. Finally, CG2 neither had a system installation nor received interventions. All groups underwent neuropsychological assessment before and after the observational period.
RESULTS
After several months of continuously monitoring at home and deployment of tailored interventions, the EG showed statistically significant improvement in cognitive function, compared to the CG1 and CG2. Moreover, EG participants, who received the sensor-based system, have shown improvement in domains such as sleep quality and daily activity, as measured by the multi-sensor system. In addition, the feedback collected from the participants concludes that the long-term use of the multi-sensor system by people with cognitive impairment can be both feasible and beneficial.
CONCLUSION
Deploying a sensor-based system at real home settings of people with cognitive limitations living alone and maintaining its use long-term is not only possible, but also beneficial for clinical decision making in order to tackle cognitive, functional, and behavioral related problems.",2019,"After several months of continuously monitoring at home and deployment of tailored interventions, the EG showed statistically significant improvement in cognitive function, compared to the CG1 and CG2.","[""18 participants (12 with mild cognitive impairment and 6 with Alzheimer's disease) took part in the study that we evenly allocated in one of three groups: 1"", 'People with Cognitive Impairment', 'people with cognitive impairment']","['Intelligent Monitoring Technology', 'experimental group (EG), 2) control group 1 (CG1), and 3) CG2', 'Assistive Technology (AT) combined with tailored non-pharmacological interventions']","['cognitive function', 'sleep quality and daily activity']","[{'cui': 'C1270972', 'cui_str': 'Mild Neurocognitive Disorder'}, {'cui': 'C0002395', 'cui_str': 'Alzheimer Dementia'}, {'cui': 'C1515187', 'cui_str': 'Take'}, {'cui': 'C0557651', 'cui_str': 'Study (environment)'}, {'cui': 'C0338656', 'cui_str': 'Cognitive Dysfunction'}]","[{'cui': 'C0039421', 'cui_str': 'Technology'}, {'cui': 'C0439745', 'cui_str': 'Grouped (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0009932', 'cui_str': 'Control Groups'}, {'cui': 'C0036605', 'cui_str': 'Assistive Technology'}, {'cui': 'C0336789', 'cui_str': 'Combine'}, {'cui': 'C0205464', 'cui_str': 'Pharmacologic (qualifier value)'}]","[{'cui': 'C0392335', 'cui_str': 'Cognitive functions (observable entity)'}, {'cui': 'C0424522', 'cui_str': 'Asleep (finding)'}, {'cui': 'C0332306', 'cui_str': 'With quality (attribute)'}, {'cui': 'C0332173', 'cui_str': 'Daily (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0441655', 'cui_str': 'Activity (observable entity)'}]",18.0,0.0473567,"After several months of continuously monitoring at home and deployment of tailored interventions, the EG showed statistically significant improvement in cognitive function, compared to the CG1 and CG2.","[{'ForeName': 'Ioulietta', 'Initials': 'I', 'LastName': 'Lazarou', 'Affiliation': 'Information Technologies Institute, Center for Research and Technology Hellas (CERTH-ITI), Thessaloniki, Macedonia, Greece.'}, {'ForeName': 'Thanos G', 'Initials': 'TG', 'LastName': 'Stavropoulos', 'Affiliation': 'Information Technologies Institute, Center for Research and Technology Hellas (CERTH-ITI), Thessaloniki, Macedonia, Greece.'}, {'ForeName': 'Georgios', 'Initials': 'G', 'LastName': 'Meditskos', 'Affiliation': 'Information Technologies Institute, Center for Research and Technology Hellas (CERTH-ITI), Thessaloniki, Macedonia, Greece.'}, {'ForeName': 'Stelios', 'Initials': 'S', 'LastName': 'Andreadis', 'Affiliation': 'Information Technologies Institute, Center for Research and Technology Hellas (CERTH-ITI), Thessaloniki, Macedonia, Greece.'}, {'ForeName': 'Ioannis Yiannis', 'Initials': 'IY', 'LastName': 'Kompatsiaris', 'Affiliation': 'Information Technologies Institute, Center for Research and Technology Hellas (CERTH-ITI), Thessaloniki, Macedonia, Greece.'}, {'ForeName': 'Magda', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Tsolaki', 'Affiliation': 'Information Technologies Institute, Center for Research and Technology Hellas (CERTH-ITI), Thessaloniki, Macedonia, Greece.'}]",Journal of Alzheimer's disease : JAD,['10.3233/JAD-190423']
2053,31891216,Ultrasound Diagnosis of Breast Lymphoma and the Identification of Breast Infiltrating Ductal Carcinoma.,"OBJECTIVES
By analyzing the B-mode ultrasound and color Doppler flow imaging characteristics of breast lymphoma (BL) and breast infiltrating ductal carcinoma (BIDC), we expected to discriminate these diseases.
METHODS
Thirty-two patients with BL and 30 with BIDC confirmed pathologically were selected. The BL group was divided into nodular and diffuse groups. We analyzed and compared the general and imaging characteristics of the BL subgroups and the BIDC group.
RESULTS
The mean maximum diameter of BL was 54.93 ± 43.74 cm, and that of BIDC was 23.90 ± 6.79 cm (P < .05). The differences between the nodular BL and BIDC groups in a circumscribed margin (60.00% versus 20.00%), calcification (20.00% versus 53.33%), aggregation characteristics (0.00% versus 53.33%), and density (73.33% versus 10.00%) were statistically significant (P < .05). The differences between the diffuse BL and BIDC groups in calcification (6.67% versus 53.33%), aggregation characteristics (6.67% versus 53.33%) and density (40.00% versus 10.00%) were statistically significant (P < .05). The difference in a circumscribed margin (60% versus 13.33%) between the BL subgroups was statistically significant (P < .05). The blood flow signal in BL lesions was richer than that in BIDC lesions (P < .05).
CONCLUSIONS
Extrasuperior-quadrant single lesions in the BL group were larger than those in the BIDC group. The edges of the lesions in the nodular BL group were circumscribed and dense.

2054,31102938,Immune function testing in sepsis patients receiving sodium selenite.,"PURPOSE
We examined in a longitudinal study the role of sodium selenite in sepsis patients in strengthening the immune performance in whole blood samples using immune functional assays.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
This was a sub-study from a randomized, double blinded multicenter clinical trial (SISPCT) registered with www.clinicaltrials.gov (NCT00832039) and with data collected at our center. Full blood samples were incubated with various recall antigens and the supernatants were measured for their cytokine concentrations as markers for immune response. Data from days 0, 4, 7, 14, and 21 (from sepsis onset) were analyzed using a generalized least squares model in R to appropriately take the longitudinal structure and the missing values into account.
RESULTS
From the 76 patients enrolled in the study at our center, 40 were randomized to selenium therapy and 36 to placebo. The analyses of immune response assay data showed no statistical difference between the selenium and placebo groups at each of the time points. There was however an overall dampening of cytokine release, which tended to recover over time in both groups.
CONCLUSION
Selenium has long been an adjuvant therapy in treating sepsis. Recently, it was proven to not have beneficial effects on the mortality outcome. Using data from our center in this sub-cohort study, we identified no relative improvement in cytokine release of stimulated blood immune cells ex vivo from patients with selenium therapy over a three-week period. This offers a potential explanation for the lack of beneficial effects of selenium in sepsis patients.",2019,The analyses of immune response assay data showed no statistical difference between the selenium and placebo groups at each of the time points.,"['76 patients enrolled in the study at our center, 40 were randomized to', 'sepsis patients', 'sepsis patients receiving']","['selenium and placebo', 'placebo', 'Selenium', 'sodium selenite', 'selenium therapy']",['cytokine release'],"[{'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C0557651', 'cui_str': 'Study (environment)'}, {'cui': 'C0243026', 'cui_str': 'Sepsis'}]","[{'cui': 'C0036581', 'cui_str': 'Selenium'}, {'cui': 'C1696465', 'cui_str': 'placebo'}, {'cui': 'C0142923', 'cui_str': 'Sodium Selenite'}, {'cui': 'C0087111', 'cui_str': 'Therapy'}]","[{'cui': 'C0079189', 'cui_str': 'Cytokine (substance)'}, {'cui': 'C1963578', 'cui_str': 'Release (procedure)'}]",76.0,0.177321,The analyses of immune response assay data showed no statistical difference between the selenium and placebo groups at each of the time points.,"[{'ForeName': 'Anne', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Guo', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Anaesthesiology, University Hospital, LMU Munich, Munich, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Jyotsna', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Srinath', 'Affiliation': 'Institute for Medical Information Processing, Biometry and Epidemiology, LMU Munich, Munich, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Matthias', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Feuerecker', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Anaesthesiology, University Hospital, LMU Munich, Munich, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Brian', 'Initials': 'B', 'LastName': 'Crucian', 'Affiliation': 'Johnson Space Center (JSC), NASA, 1601 NASA Parkway, Houston, TX 77058, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Josef', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Briegel', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Anaesthesiology, University Hospital, LMU Munich, Munich, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Anne-Laure', 'Initials': 'AL', 'LastName': 'Boulesteix', 'Affiliation': 'Institute for Medical Information Processing, Biometry and Epidemiology, LMU Munich, Munich, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Ines', 'Initials': 'I', 'LastName': 'Kaufmann', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Anaesthesiology, Munich-Neuperlach Hospital, Munich, Germany.'}, {'ForeName': 'Alexander', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'Choukèr', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Anaesthesiology, University Hospital, LMU Munich, Munich, Germany.

2056,31792646,"The influence of gender and oxytocin on stress reactivity, cigarette craving, and smoking in a randomized, placebo-controlled laboratory relapse paradigm.","RATIONALE
Female cigarette smokers tend to show greater cessation failure compared with males. Variables that contribute to the maintenance of smoking, including stress and craving, may differentially impact male and female smokers. Novel pharmacotherapies, such as oxytocin, may attenuate stress reactivity and craving in smokers, but work in this area is limited.
OBJECTIVES
This study assessed the influence of gender and oxytocin on stress reactivity, craving, and smoking in a randomized, placebo-controlled laboratory relapse paradigm.
METHODS
Male and female adult cigarette smokers (ages 18-45) were enrolled (women oversampled 2:1) and completed a laboratory session, in which intranasal oxytocin or placebo was administered followed by a laboratory social stress task. The role of gender and oxytocin were assessed on measures of stress reactivity, cigarette craving, latency to smoke in a resistance task, subjective responses to smoking, and ad-libitum smoking.
RESULTS
Participants (N = 144) had a mean age of 31 were 63% female and 56% White. Following stress induction, female smokers evidenced greater subjective stress than males, though males demonstrated greater neuroendocrine reactivity and smoking intensity than females. No gender differences were demonstrated for craving. Oxytocin did not attenuate any aspect of stress reactivity, craving, smoking, or subjective responses to smoking compared with placebo.
CONCLUSIONS
Gender differences in stress reactivity were shown in the hypothesized direction, but oxytocin appeared to exert little impact on subjective or behavioral metrics. Results highlight the complex relationship between gender, stress, and smoking, as well as the implications for oxytocin as a potential pharmacotherapy for smoking cessation.",2020,"Oxytocin did not attenuate any aspect of stress reactivity, craving, smoking, or subjective responses to smoking compared with placebo.

2057,31236874,Improvement in 6-min Walk Test Distance Following Treatment for Behavioral Weight Loss and Disinhibited Eating: an Exploratory Secondary Analysis.,"BACKGROUND
Poor functional exercise capacity is common among those with obesity; however, objective measures of exercise capacity are rarely examined in behavioral treatments targeting obese individuals. We examined whether a 4-week acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) intervention for disinhibited eating or a behavioral weight loss (BWL) intervention improved exercise capacity and explored demographic and disinhibited eating variables related to exercise capacity.
METHODS
Veterans (n = 61), randomized to receive ACT or BWL, completed an assessment of exercise capacity via the 6-min walk test (6MWT) at baseline and 6-month follow-up. Measures of disinhibited eating patterns and body mass index (BMI), at baseline and post-treatment, were also collected. Change in 6MWT distance and treatment group differences were examined using mixed ANOVAs. Characteristics related to baseline 6MWT and predictors of improvement in 6MWT at 6 months were examined with hierarchical multiple regression.
RESULTS
There were overall significant improvements on the 6MWT from baseline to 6-month follow-up (F(1,59) = 11.14, p = .001, η p 2 = .159) but no differences between the ACT and BWL groups. Baseline BMI (β = - .33, p = .005) was the only variable related to baseline 6MWT. Improvements on the 6MWT were related to younger age (β = - .41, p = 0.001), female gender (β = .36, p = .001), and treatment-related increases in dietary restraint behaviors (β = .42, p = .001).
CONCLUSIONS
Functional exercise capacity improved among participants completing behavioral interventions for weight and disinhibited eating. Improvements in dietary behavior regulatory skills may have generalized to improved regulation in other behavioral domains associated with exercise capacity.",2019,Improvements on the 6MWT were related to younger age (β ,"['Veterans (n\u2009=\u200961', 'participants completing behavioral interventions for weight and disinhibited eating']","['ACT or BWL, completed an assessment of exercise capacity via the 6-min walk test (6MWT', '4-week acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) intervention for disinhibited eating or a behavioral weight loss (BWL) intervention']","['Baseline BMI', 'Behavioral Weight Loss and Disinhibited Eating', 'disinhibited eating patterns and body mass index (BMI', '6MWT', 'female gender (β', 'dietary restraint behaviors (β\u2009']","[{'cui': 'C0205197', 'cui_str': 'Complete (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C1305866', 'cui_str': 'Weighing patient (procedure)'}]","[{'cui': 'C0205197', 'cui_str': 'Complete (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C1261322', 'cui_str': 'Clinical evaluation'}, {'cui': 'C0015259', 'cui_str': 'Physical Activity'}, {'cui': 'C0439232', 'cui_str': 'min (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C4277740', 'cui_str': 'Walk Test'}, {'cui': 'C0439230', 'cui_str': 'week (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C3658321', 'cui_str': 'Acceptance and Commitment Therapy'}, {'cui': 'C1262477', 'cui_str': 'Weight Reduction'}]","[{'cui': 'C1262477', 'cui_str': 'Weight Reduction'}, {'cui': 'C0013470', 'cui_str': 'Food Intake'}, {'cui': 'C0449774', 'cui_str': 'Patterns (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0005893', 'cui_str': 'Body mass index'}, {'cui': 'C0086287', 'cui_str': 'Females'}, {'cui': 'C0079399', 'cui_str': 'Gender'}, {'cui': 'C0004927', 'cui_str': 'Behavior'}]",,0.0492712,Improvements on the 6MWT were related to younger age (β ,"[{'ForeName': 'Jennalee S', 'Initials': 'JS', 'LastName': 'Wooldridge', 'Affiliation': 'VA San Diego Healthcare System, San Diego, CA, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Matthew S', 'Initials': 'MS', 'LastName': 'Herbert', 'Affiliation': 'VA San Diego Healthcare System, San Diego, CA, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Jeffrey', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Hernandez', 'Affiliation': 'VA San Diego Healthcare System, San Diego, CA, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Cara', 'Initials': 'C', 'LastName': 'Dochat', 'Affiliation': 'San Diego State University/University of California, San Diego Joint Doctoral Program in Clinical Psychology, San Diego, CA, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Kathryn M', 'Initials': 'KM', 'LastName': 'Godfrey', 'Affiliation': 'Center for Weight, Eating and Lifestyle Science (WELL Center), Drexel University, Philadelphia, PA, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Marianna', 'Initials': 'M', 'LastName': 'Gasperi', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Psychiatry, University of California, San Diego, San Diego, CA, USA.'}, {'ForeName': 'Niloofar', 'Initials': 'N', 'LastName': 'Afari', 'Affiliation': 'VA San Diego Healthcare System, San Diego, CA, USA. nafari@ucsd.edu.'}]",International journal of behavioral medicine,['10.1007/s12529-019-09796-1']
2058,31227286,Independent serum markers of corpora lutea function after gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist trigger and adjuvant low dose human chorionic gonadotropin in in vitro fertilization.,"OBJECTIVE
To characterize corpora lutea (CL) function after gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist (GnRHa) trigger with the use of adjuvant human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG).
DESIGN
Secondary analysis of serum from prospective randomized clinical trial.
SETTING
University-based fertility center.
PATIENT(S)
Women under 40 years of age at risk of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) with serum E 2 level <4,000 pg/mL.
INTERVENTIONS(S)
All subjects underwent ovarian stimulation with the use of a GnRH antagonist protocol. Within a larger study, subjects were randomized to receive 1,000 IU hCG at the time of GnRHa trigger and placebo at the time of vaginal oocyte retrieval (VOR) or placebo at the time of GnRHa trigger and 1,500 IU hCG at the time of VOR.
MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE(S)
Luteal phase and early pregnancy curves of serum prorenin and 17α-hydroxyprogesterone (17OH-P).
RESULT(S)
Thirty subjects enrolled in this secondary analysis. Serum 17OH-P peaked in the early luteal phase, 5 days after GnRHa trigger, with a nadir in the mid-luteal phase 9 days after trigger. Serum prorenin peaked in the luteal phase 2 days after GnRHa trigger, independently from adjuvant hCG timing, and reached a nadir at 9 days after trigger. CL function appears higher when adjuvant hCG is given at VOR compared with adjuvant hCG given at the time of trigger.
CONCLUSION(S)
CL function, as interpreted by proxy measures of serum prorenin and 17OH-P with pregnancy, continues despite GnRHa trigger.

2059,30399122,A Randomized Controlled Trial of Naloxone for Optimization of Hypoxemia in Lung Donors After Brain Death.,"BACKGROUND
Persistent hypoxemia is the principal reason lungs from otherwise eligible brain dead (BD) organ donors are not transplanted. Experimental models and retrospective studies have suggested that naloxone attenuates neurogenic pulmonary edema and reverses hypoxemia after brain death. We undertook a multisite, randomized, placebo-controlled trial to evaluate whether naloxone is able to improve oxygenation in BD donors with hypoxemia.
METHODS
BD organ donors at 4 organ procurement organizations were randomized in a blinded manner to naloxone 8 mg or saline placebo if lung were being considered for allocation but exhibited hypoxemia (partial pressure of oxygen in arterial blood to fraction of inspired oxygen ratio [PFR] below 300 mm Hg). The primary outcome was change in PFR from baseline to final arterial blood gas. Secondary outcomes included early improvement in PFR and proportion of lungs transplanted.
RESULTS
A total of 199 lung-eligible BD donors were randomized to naloxone (n = 98) or placebo (n = 101). Groups were comparable at baseline. Both groups exhibited similar improvements in oxygenation (median improvement in PFR of 81 with naloxone versus 80 with saline, P = 0.68), with 37 (39%) versus 38 (40%) exhibiting reversal of hypoxemia. There was no difference in the rate of lungs transplanted (19% in both groups, P = 0.97) although it was significantly higher in those with reversal of hypoxemia (32/69 versus 2/111, P < 0.001).
CONCLUSIONS
Naloxone does not improve oxygenation more than placebo in hypoxemic organ donors. However, reversal of hypoxemia was a powerful predictor of lung utilization regardless of drug therapy. Further organ procurement organization-led research is needed to assess optimal interventions to improve oxygenation in BD donors with hypoxemia.",2019,"There was no difference in the rate of lungs transplanted (19% in both groups, P = 0.97) although it was significantly higher in those with reversal of hypoxemia (32/69 versus 2/111, P < 0.001).

2060,30587296,"Pay-it-forward strategy to enhance uptake of dual gonorrhea and chlamydia testing among men who have sex with men in China: a pragmatic, quasi-experimental study.","BACKGROUND
Chinese men who have sex with men (MSM) rarely receive gonorrhoea and chlamydia testing. The purpose of this pilot study was to evaluate a pay-it-forward strategy to increase uptake of gonorrhoea and chlamydia testing among MSM.
METHODS
We performed a quasi-experimental pragmatic study to compare a pay-it-forward model with standard of care at two HIV testing sites for MSM in Guangzhou, China: an STD clinic for MSM and a local MSM community-based organisation. All men who arrived at the STD clinic or the community-based organisation were invited to participate. In the pay-it-forward programme, men were offered free gonorrhoea and chlamydia testing and given the option of donating money toward testing for future participants. In the standard-of-care group, men were offered gonorrhoea and chlamydia testing at the standard patient price of ¥150 (about US$21·50). The pay-it-forward programme was implemented for 3 months, after which both sites switched to standard of care offering dual testing for 3 months. The primary outcome for this study was uptake of dual gonorrhoea and chlamydia testing, which we compared using χ 2 test and logistic regression, reported as crude odds ratios (cOR) and adjusted odds ratios (aOR), by adjusting for nationality, marital status, income, and site of testing.
FINDINGS
The pay-it-forward programme took place from Dec 2, 2017, to Feb 3, 2018, and the standard-of-care control took place from March 11, 2018, to May 1, 2018. 408 men were included in this study. 203 men were offered pay-it-forward, and 205 were offered standard of care. Overall, 109 (54%) of 203 men in the pay-it-forward group and 12 (6%) of 205 men in the standard-of-care group received gonorrhoea and chlamydia testing (cOR 18·65, 9·78-35·54; p<0·0001; aOR 19·73, 95% CI 10·02-38·85; p<0·0001). Of all 121 men who tested, this was the first gonorrhoea test for 97 (80%) men and the first chlamydia test for 104 (86%) men. Five (4%) of these 121 men were diagnosed with gonorrhoea and 15 (12%) were diagnosed with chlamydia. 97 (89%) of 109 men who received testing in the pay-it-forward group donated some money toward testing for future participants.
INTERPRETATION
Pay-it-forward might be a sustainable model for expanding integrated HIV testing services among MSM in China.

2061,30240280,Improving image quality with model-based iterative reconstruction at quarter of nominal dose in upper abdominal CT.,"OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the ability of a model-based iterative reconstruction (MBIR) for improving image quality in upper abdominal CT with quarter of the normal dose, in comparison with adaptive statistical iterative reconstruction (ASiR) at normal dose.
METHODS
40 upper abdominal patients were randomly divided into two groups: normal-dose group ( n = 20) with tube current modulation for noise index (NI) of 10 HU and 40% ASiR reconstruction; low-dose group ( n = 20) with NI = 20 HU in the delay phase and MBIR and 40%ASiR. Images in the delay phase were compared. The CT values and standard deviation (SD) values of the liver, spleen, pancreas, kidney, erector spine and fat were measured. Contrast-noise-ratio (CNR = (CT tissue -CT fat )/SD fat ) of each measured organ were calculated and compared with one-way ANOVA among the three reconstruction groups. The subjective image scores of the three groups were assessed blindly by two experienced physicians using a 5-point system and the score consistency was compared by the κ test.
RESULTS
Dose reduction of 75 % was achieved for the low-dose scan. The subjective scores (95 % confidence intervals) of the three groups (NI 10-40 % ASiR, NI 20-40% ASiR and NI 20-MBIR) were 4.00 ± 0.79 (3.62-4.37), 3.35 ± 0.58 (3.07-3.62) and 3.90 ± 0.64 (3.60-4.19), respectively with no difference between the NI 10-40% ASiR and NI20-MBIR groups and good consistency between reviewers (κ = 0.726). MBIR had statistically lower SD values and higher contrast-to-noise ratio values in the liver, spleen, pancreas, kidney and erector spine than NI 10-40% ASiR and NI 20-40% ASiR (all p < 0.05).
CONCLUSION
At 75 % dose reduction, MBIR provides similar image quality compared to 40% ASiR at normal-dose.

2062,30070379,Mailed Outreach Invitations Significantly Improve HCC Surveillance Rates in Patients With Cirrhosis: A Randomized Clinical Trial.,"Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) surveillance is associated with early tumor detection and improved survival in patients with cirrhosis; however, effectiveness is limited by underuse. We compared the effectiveness of mailed outreach and patient navigation strategies to increase HCC surveillance in a racially diverse cohort of patients with cirrhosis. We conducted a pragmatic randomized clinical trial comparing mailed outreach for screening ultrasound (n = 600), mailed outreach plus patient navigation (n = 600), or usual care with visit-based screening (n = 600) among 1800 patients with cirrhosis at a large safety-net health system from December 2014 to March 2017. Patients who did not respond to outreach invitations within 2 weeks received reminder telephone calls. Patient navigation included an assessment of barriers to surveillance and encouragement of surveillance participation. The primary outcome was HCC surveillance (abdominal imaging every 6 months) over an 18-month period. All 1800 patients were included in intention-to-screen analyses. HCC surveillance was performed in 23.3% of outreach/navigation patients, 17.8% of outreach-alone patients, and 7.3% of usual care patients. HCC surveillance was 16.0% (95% confidence interval [CI]: 12.0%-20.0%) and 10.5% (95% CI: 6.8%-14.2%) higher in outreach groups than usual care (P < 0.001 for both) and 5.5% (95% CI: 0.9%-10.1%) higher for outreach/navigation than outreach alone (P = 0.02).

2063,30655090,"Reductions in 30-day readmission, mortality, and costs with inpatient-to-community pharmacist follow-up.","OBJECTIVES
To determine the impact of pharmacist-provided continuous care and electronic communication on readmissions among a group of high-risk patients.
DESIGN
Pragmatic interventional study with 5:1 matched control.
SETTING AND PARTICIPANTS
Patients discharged from any of 4 hospitals with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, pneumonia, heart failure, acute myocardial infarction, or diabetes within Pennsylvania. Patients in the intervention group received consultative services from inpatient pharmacists before discharge and inpatient-to-community pharmacist communication of hospitalization information facilitated with the use of a secure messaging system. After discharge, patients received up to 5 in-person or telephonic medication management consultations with their community pharmacists.
MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES
The principal end point was 30-day readmission. Secondary end points included time to event (readmission, emergency department [ED] visit, death, or composite of hospitalization, ED, or death) over 90 days after discharge. Financial feasibility and sustainability were also assessed with the use of a return-on-investment (ROI) model based on information within the subset of patients with health plan coverage.
RESULTS
Among patients who received inpatient intervention plus consultation with community pharmacists compared with matched control patients, we observed a lower 30-day readmission rate (9% vs. 15%, respectively; P = 0.02), 30-day all-cause mortality (2% vs. 5%; P = 0.04), and composite 30-day end point of readmission, ED visit, or death (22% vs. 28%; P = 0.09). Differences between the groups diminished and no longer maintained statistical significance at 90 days. An estimated average ROI of 8.1 was also observed among the subset with health plan information (worst base case range 1.9-16.3).
CONCLUSION
Connecting community pharmacists to inpatient pharmacists during the transitional hospital-to-home time frame is feasible and resulted in lower 30-day readmissions and significant ROI, that is, significant impact on health care utilization and total health care costs. Results of this study have broad implications for improving the care of high-risk patients moving from hospital to home, most notably in the engagement of community pharmacists after discharge to assure medication use and follow-up to reduce readmissions and total costs of care.",2019,Differences between the groups diminished and no longer maintained statistical significance at 90 days.,"['Patients discharged from any of 4 hospitals with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, pneumonia, heart failure, acute myocardial infarction, or diabetes within Pennsylvania', 'readmissions among a group of high-risk patients']","['consultative services from inpatient pharmacists before discharge and inpatient-to-community pharmacist communication of hospitalization information facilitated with the use of a secure messaging system', 'pharmacist-provided continuous care and electronic communication', 'telephonic medication management consultations with their community pharmacists']","['Financial feasibility and sustainability', '30-day readmission, mortality, and costs with inpatient-to-community pharmacist follow-up', 'composite 30-day end point of readmission, ED visit, or death', '30-day readmission rate', 'time to event (readmission, emergency department [ED] visit, death, or composite of hospitalization, ED, or death', '30-day all-cause mortality', '30-day readmission']","[{'cui': 'C0030685', 'cui_str': 'Patient Discharge'}, {'cui': 'C1510665', 'cui_str': 'Hospital environment (environment)'}, {'cui': 'C0024117', 'cui_str': 'Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease'}, {'cui': 'C0032285', 'cui_str': 'Pneumonia'}, {'cui': 'C0018801', 'cui_str': 'Cardiac Failure'}, {'cui': 'C0155626', 'cui_str': 'Acute myocardial infarction (disorder)'}, {'cui': 'C0030853', 'cui_str': 'Pennsylvania'}, {'cui': 'C0439745', 'cui_str': 'Grouped (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C4319571', 'cui_str': 'High risk (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}]","[{'cui': 'C0557854', 'cui_str': 'Services (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0021562', 'cui_str': 'Inpatient (person)'}, {'cui': 'C0031323', 'cui_str': 'Pharmacist'}, {'cui': 'C0012621', 'cui_str': 'Discharge -

2064,31904445,Outcomes of a church-based lifestyle intervention among Australian Samoans in Sydney - Le Taeao Afua diabetes prevention program.,"AIMS
To evaluate the effectiveness of a culturally adapted, church-based lifestyle intervention among Australian Samoans living in Sydney.
METHODS
This was a prospective, pre-post study of a church-wide education and support programme delivered by Community Coach Facilitators and Peer Support Facilitators to prevent, and promote self-management of, Type 2 diabetes. Participants completed questionnaires, anthropometric and HbA1c measurements before and 3-8 months after the intervention. The primary outcome was HbA1c.
RESULTS
Overall, 68/107(63.5%) participants completed both before and after intervention data collection (mean age 48.9 ± 14.2 years; 57.2% female). HbA1c dropped significantly between baseline and follow-up among participants with known diabetes (8.1 ± 2.4% (65 mmol/mol) vs 7.4 ± 1.8% (57 mmol/mol); p = 0.040) and non-significantly among participants with newly diagnosed diabetes (8.0 ± 2.1% (64 mmol/mol) vs 7.1 ± 2.3 (54 mmol/mol); p = 0.131). Participants with no diabetes increased their weekly moderate and vigorous physical activity (316.1 ± 291.6mins vs 562.4 ± 486.6mins; p = 0.007) and their diabetes knowledge also improved post-intervention (42.0 ± 13.5% to 61.3 ± 20.2%; p < 0.001). There were no significant reductions in blood pressure, BMI or waist circumference at follow-up.
CONCLUSIONS
A structured, church-based, culturally tailored lifestyle intervention showed a number of improvements in diabetes risk among Samoans in Sydney. The intervention however, requires a more rigorous testing in a larger randomised controlled trial over a longer time period.",2020,"There were no significant reductions in blood pressure, BMI or waist circumference at follow-up.

2065,31799782,"Effect of Liraglutide on Cardiovascular Function and Myocardial Tissue Characteristics in Type 2 Diabetes Patients of South Asian Descent Living in the Netherlands: A Double-Blind, Randomized, Placebo-Controlled Trial.","BACKGROUND
The glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist liraglutide may be beneficial in the regression of diabetic cardiomyopathy. South Asian ethnic groups in particular are at risk of developing type 2 diabetes.
PURPOSE
To assess the effects of liraglutide on left ventricular (LV) diastolic and systolic function in South Asian type 2 diabetes patients.
STUDY TYPE
Prospective, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial.
POPULATION
Forty-seven type 2 diabetes patients of South Asian ancestry living in the Netherlands, with or without ischemic heart disease, who were randomly assigned to 26-week treatment with liraglutide (1.8 mg/day) or placebo.
FIELD STRENGTH/SEQUENCE
3T (balanced steady-state free precession cine MRI, 2D and 4D velocity-encoded MRI, 1 H-MRS, T 1 mapping).
ASSESSMENT
Primary endpoints were changes in LV diastolic function (early deceleration peak [Edec], ratio of early and late peak filling rate [E/A], estimated LV filling pressure [E/Ea]) and LV systolic function (ejection fraction). Secondary endpoints were changes in aortic stiffness (aortic pulse wave velocity [PWV]), myocardial steatosis (myocardial triglyceride content), and diffuse fibrosis (extracellular volume [ECV]).
STATISTICAL TESTS
Data were analyzed according to intention-to-treat. Between-group differences were reported as mean (95% confidence interval [CI]) and were assessed using analysis of covariance (ANCOVA).
RESULTS
Liraglutide (n = 22) compared with placebo (n = 25) did not change Edec (+0.2 mL/s 2 × 10 -3 (-0.3;0.6)), E/A (-0.09 (-0.23;0.05)), E/Ea (+0.1 (-1.2;1.3)) and ejection fraction (0% (-3;2)), but decreased stroke volume (-9 mL (-14;-5)) and increased heart rate (+10 bpm (4;15)). Aortic PWV (+0.5 m/s (-0.6;1.6)), myocardial triglyceride content (+0.21% (-0.09;0.51)), and ECV (-0.2% (-1.4;1.0)) were unaltered.
DATA CONCLUSION
Liraglutide did not affect LV diastolic and systolic function, aortic stiffness, myocardial triglyceride content, or extracellular volume in Dutch South Asian type 2 diabetes patients with or without coronary artery disease.

2066,31314954,The effect of intradermal microdosing of a transient receptor potential cation channel subfamily V member 1 antagonist on heat evoked pain and thermal thresholds in normal and ultraviolet-C exposed skin in healthy volunteers.,"BACKGROUND
Three TRPV1 (Transient Receptor Potential Vanilloid Receptor 1) antagonists were developed for testing in situ in human skin (Sjögren et al., 2016; Sjögren et al., 2018; Sjögren et al., 2018). The first human study using these compounds and capsaicin, was performed to determine the required local antagonist concentrations needed for target engagement (Proof of Mechanism, PoM) (Sjögren et al., 2018). In this paper, the aim was to address a TRPV1 antagonist's ability to inhibit a more complex pain signal and to define translational endpoints that could be used in further drug development, when progressing orally bioavailable TRPV1 antagonists as novel analgesic medications.
METHOD
This was a single centre, placebo-controlled, clinical proof of principle (PoP) study in 25 healthy volunteers. The subjects were exposed to UV irradiation, causing a local tissue inflammation. Three different doses of AZ12048189 were administered to assess pain perception through quantitative sensory testing (QST) and erythema using Laser Doppler scanning.
RESULTS

CONCLUSIONS
This study validated translational tools to confirm target engagement for TRPV1 antagonists; WDT, HPT and STHP have utility in this respect, after oral administration of a TRPV1 antagonist.

2067,29628182,[Group intervention from a sensorimotor approach to reduce the intensity of chronic pain].,"OBJECTIVE
To assess the effectiveness, on people with chronic pain, of an intervention (Time In) designed to reduce pain and to improve psychological symptoms.
DESIGN
A randomized clinical trial with a control group, taking three measurements over three months.
SETTING
Granada, Spain.
PARTICIPANTS
A sample of 40 women aged 18 or older with a history (over 6 months) of chronic pain. The recruitment was in the Fibromyalgia Association of Granada, Spain (AGRAFIM).
INTERVENTIONS
Time In is a sensorimotor intervention that combines biomechanical physiotherapeutic procedures and psychological strategies. A weekly session of 3h was planned and the total of the program was developed during five weeks.
MAIN MEASUREMENTS
Independent variables: sociodemographic information, clinical history and Time In intervention. Dependent variables: Brief Pain Inventory (BPI-S), Short-Form Health Survey (SF-12), Symptom Check List-90-R (SCL-90-R) and Clinical Outcome in Routine Evaluation (CORE-OM).
RESULTS
Significant differences were observed between control group and intervention group of most of the scales used in postintervention and follow up measurements. Thus, significantly lower mean scores were obtained in intensity, interference and areas of pain, quality of life, psychological symptoms and behavioural change. Similar results were observed on d Cohen scores. They were 'very important' on intensity of pain (d=-1.01, d=-0.97) and interference of pain (d=-0.85, d=-0.74), with an improvement percentage from 21% to 30%.

2068,30968546,Exercise testing after chronic total coronary occlusion revascularization in patients with STEMI and a concurrent CTO: A subanalysis of the EXPLORE-trial.,"OBJECTIVES
To assess the effect of chronic total occlusion percutaneous coronary intervention (CTO PCI) on ventricular ectopy (VE) and symptomatology during exercise testing.
BACKGROUND
During exercise, the hypoxic myocardium in the CTO-territory can act as a substrate for VE and could lead to anginal complaints.
METHODS
In the EXPLORE-trial, 302 ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI)-patients were randomized to CTO PCI or no-CTO PCI. For this sub-study, we analyzed all available exercise electrocardiograms (X-ECGs) at 4 months follow-up on symptoms and electrocardiographic parameters.
RESULTS
A total of 155 X-ECGs were available, 80 in the CTO PCI group (51.6%) and 75 in the no-CTO PCI group (48.4%). There were no differences regarding exercised time, achieved endurance, ST-deviation nor maximum heart-rate. The percentage of patients experiencing chest-pain during exercise was lower in the CTO PCI group (0% vs. 8.5%, p = .03). Also, there was a trend towards a higher maximum systolic blood pressure (SBP, 185 mmHg vs. 175, p = .09). No difference in VE was found between randomization groups, but patients with successful CTO PCI had a higher frequency of VE, compared to failed and no-CTO PCI (26% vs. 8%, p = .02). This did not result in higher frequencies of sustained ventricular arrhythmias or mortality.
CONCLUSION
In conclusion, in STEMI-patients, CTO PCI is associated with a small reduction of chest-pain during exercise and tended to be associated with an increase of maximum SBP. The observation that successful CTO PCI was associated with more VE during exercise, compared with failed/no-CTO PCI needs further exploration.",2019,"No difference in VE was found between randomization groups, but patients with successful CTO PCI had a higher frequency of VE, compared to failed and no-CTO PCI (26% vs. 8%, p = .02).","['patients with STEMI and a concurrent CTO', '302 ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI)-patients']","['Exercise testing', 'CTO PCI or no-CTO PCI', 'CTO PCI', 'chronic total occlusion percutaneous coronary intervention (CTO PCI']","['VE', 'percentage of patients experiencing chest-pain during exercise', 'maximum SBP', 'ventricular ectopy (VE) and symptomatology', 'exercised time, achieved endurance, ST-deviation nor maximum heart-rate', 'maximum systolic blood pressure', 'higher frequencies of sustained ventricular arrhythmias or mortality']","[{'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C1536220', 'cui_str': 'ST Elevated Myocardial Infarction'}, {'cui': 'C0205420', 'cui_str': 'Concurrent (qualifier value)'}]","[{'cui': 'C0015259', 'cui_str': 'Physical Activity'}, {'cui': 'C0205191', 'cui_str': 'Chronic (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0439810', 'cui_str': 'Total (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0441597', 'cui_str': 'Occlusion - action (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C1532338', 'cui_str': 'Percutaneous Coronary Revascularization'}]","[{'cui': 'C0030705', 'cui_str': 'Patients'}, {'cui': 'C0008031', 'cui_str': 'Chest Pain'}, {'cui': 'C0587107', 'cui_str': 'During exercise (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0911267', 'cui_str': 'SBP protein, Papaver rhoeas'}, {'cui': 'C0439587', 'cui_str': 'Exercise time (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0518031', 'cui_str': 'Endurance capacity'}, {'cui': 'C0012727', 'cui_str': 'Displacement (morphologic abnormality)'}, {'cui': 'C0744679', 'cui_str': 'Maximum heart rate'}, {'cui': 'C1282150', 'cui_str': 'Maximum systolic blood pressure'}, {'cui': 'C0205212', 'cui_str': 'High frequency (qualifier value)'}, {'cui': 'C0026566', 'cui_str': 'mortality'}]",302.0,0.0926531,"No difference in VE was found between randomization groups, but patients with successful CTO PCI had a higher frequency of VE, compared to failed and no-CTO PCI (26% vs. 8%, p = .02).","[{'ForeName': 'Anna', 'Initials': 'A', 'LastName': 'van Veelen', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Cardiology, Amsterdam Cardiovascular Sciences, Amsterdam UMC, University of Amsterdam, Heart Center, The Netherlands.'}, {'ForeName': 'Ivo M', 'Initials': 'IM', 'LastName': 'van Dongen', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Cardiology, Amsterdam Cardiovascular Sciences, Amsterdam UMC, University of Amsterdam, Heart Center, The Netherlands.'}, {'ForeName': 'Joëlle', 'Initials': 'J', 'LastName': 'Elias', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Cardiology, Amsterdam Cardiovascular Sciences, Amsterdam UMC, University of Amsterdam, Heart Center, The Netherlands.'}, {'ForeName': 'Truls', 'Initials': 'T', 'LastName': 'Råmunddal', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Cardiology, Sahlgrenska University Hospital, Gothenburg, Sweden.'}, {'ForeName': 'Erlend', 'Initials': 'E', 'LastName': 'Eriksen', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Cardiology, Haukeland University Hospital, Bergen, Norway.'}, {'ForeName': 'René J', 'Initials': 'RJ', 'LastName': 'van der Schaaf', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Cardiology, OLVG Hospital, Amsterdam, The Netherlands.'}, {'ForeName': 'Bimmer E P M', 'Initials': 'BEPM', 'LastName': 'Claessen', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Cardiology, Amsterdam Cardiovascular Sciences, Amsterdam UMC, University of Amsterdam, Heart Center, The Netherlands.'}, {'ForeName': 'Pieter G', 'Initials': 'PG', 'LastName': 'Postema', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Cardiology, Amsterdam Cardiovascular Sciences, Amsterdam UMC, University of Amsterdam, Heart Center, The Netherlands.'}, {'ForeName': 'José P S', 'Initials': 'JPS', 'LastName': 'Henriques', 'Affiliation': 'Department of Cardiology, Amsterdam Cardiovascular Sciences, Amsterdam UMC, University of Amsterdam, Heart Center, The Netherlands.'}]",Catheterization and cardiovascular interventions : official journal of the Society for Cardiac Angiography & Interventions,['10.1002/ccd.28282']
2069,31971679,Teprotumumab for the Treatment of Active Thyroid Eye Disease.,"BACKGROUND
Thyroid eye disease is a debilitating, disfiguring, and potentially blinding periocular condition for which no Food and Drug Administration-approved medical therapy is available. Strong evidence has implicated the insulin-like growth factor I receptor (IGF-IR) in the pathogenesis of this disease.
METHODS
In a randomized, double-masked, placebo-controlled, phase 3 multicenter trial, we assigned patients with active thyroid eye disease in a 1:1 ratio to receive intravenous infusions of the IGF-IR inhibitor teprotumumab (10 mg per kilogram of body weight for the first infusion and 20 mg per kilogram for subsequent infusions) or placebo once every 3 weeks for 21 weeks; the last trial visit for this analysis was at week 24. The primary outcome was a proptosis response (a reduction in proptosis of ≥2 mm) at week 24. Prespecified secondary outcomes at week 24 were an overall response (a reduction of ≥2 points in the Clinical Activity Score plus a reduction in proptosis of ≥2 mm), a Clinical Activity Score of 0 or 1 (indicating no or minimal inflammation), the mean change in proptosis across trial visits (from baseline through week 24), a diplopia response (a reduction in diplopia of ≥1 grade), and the mean change in overall score on the Graves' ophthalmopathy-specific quality-of-life (GO-QOL) questionnaire across trial visits (from baseline through week 24; a mean change of ≥6 points is considered clinically meaningful).
RESULTS
A total of 41 patients were assigned to the teprotumumab group and 42 to the placebo group. At week 24, the percentage of patients with a proptosis response was higher with teprotumumab than with placebo (83% [34 patients] vs. 10% [4 patients], P<0.001), with a number needed to treat of 1.36. All secondary outcomes were significantly better with teprotumumab than with placebo, including overall response (78% of patients [32] vs. 7% [3]), Clinical Activity Score of 0 or 1 (59% [24] vs. 21% [9]), the mean change in proptosis (-2.82 mm vs. -0.54 mm), diplopia response (68% [19 of 28] vs. 29% [8 of 28]), and the mean change in GO-QOL overall score (13.79 points vs. 4.43 points) (P≤0.001 for all). Reductions in extraocular muscle, orbital fat volume, or both were observed in 6 patients in the teprotumumab group who underwent orbital imaging. Most adverse events were mild or moderate in severity; two serious events occurred in the teprotumumab group, of which one (an infusion reaction) led to treatment discontinuation.
CONCLUSIONS
Among patients with active thyroid eye disease, teprotumumab resulted in better outcomes with respect to proptosis, Clinical Activity Score, diplopia, and quality of life than placebo; serious adverse events were uncommon.
