TI Cross-Ethnic Differences in the Severity of Neuropsychiatric Symptoms in Persons With Mild Cognitive Impairment and Alzheimer's Disease SO JOURNAL OF NEUROPSYCHIATRY AND CLINICAL NEUROSCIENCES LA English DT Article ID BRIEF CLINICAL FORM; MEXICAN-AMERICANS; NPI-Q; DEMENTIA; HISPANICS; PREVALENCE; DEPRESSION; POPULATION; VALIDATION; INVENTORY AB In this cross-sectional study, we examined the neuropsychiatric profile of mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and Alzheimer's disease (AD) using the Neuropsychiatric Inventory Questionnaire (NPI-Q). Data were available on 875 controls, 339 MCI cases, and 975 AD participants. Surprisingly, differences in neuropsychiatric symptom (NPS) severity by ethnicity in subjects with AD, but not with MCI, were found. More so, in Hispanics with AD, a higher frequency in most of the individual NPI-Q symptom items of the scale was observed, except for apathy. After adjustment for clinical features, some individual NPI-Q symptoms also showed an association with Hispanic ethnicity in the control group that nearly reached statistical significance. There may be cross-ethnic differences in the neuropsychiatric presentation of AD in Hispanics versus non-Hispanic whites. Future studies are needed to clarify the etiology of these differences, and to assess the need for ethnicity-specific treatment and care-giving interventions.

It could enable early interventions to prevent complications, enabling more efficient utilization of manpower and facilities in hospitals. In this study, we apply a regression tree (Cubist) model for predicting the LOS, based on static inputs, that is, values that are known at the time of admission and that do not change during patient's hospital stay. The model was trained and validated on de-identified administrative data from the Veterans Health Administration (VHA) hospitals in Pittsburgh, PA. We chose to use a Cubist model because it produced more accurate predictions than did alternative techniques. In addition, tree models enable us to examine the classification rules learned from the data, in order to better understand the factors that are most correlated with hospital LOS. Cubist recursively partitions the data set as it estimates linear regressions for each partition, and the error level differs for different partitions, so that it is possible to deduce what are the characteristics of patients whose LOS can be accurately predicted at admission, and what are the characteristics of patients for whom the LOS estimate at that point in time is more highly uncertain. For example, our model indicates that the prediction error is greater for patients who had more admissions in the recent past, and for those who had longer previous hospital stays. Our approach suggests that mapping the cases into a higher dimensional space, using a Radial Basis Function (RBF) kernel, helps to separate them by their level of Cubist error, using a Support Vector Machine (SVM).

While used extensively in Europe and Canada, it is has not been approved by the United States Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) as an alternative to the water-rinse method due to a lack of evidence of its safety and efficacy on human subjects. An unbiased and extensive systematic review was undertaken in order to better understand Diphoterine's safety and efficaciousness on humans.Objective: Review the safety and efficacy of Diphoterine for treating chemical burns of the skin and eyes in humans.Methods: Data sources: Information sources included Pubmed, the National Library of Medicine's Medline Database and the Publications sections of the Prevor website. Search terms included Diphoterine, chemical burn, ocular burn and cutaneous burn. Study selection: Any study type published through a peer-reviewed journal up to May 2016 was considered eligible. Published data must have included Diphoterine in the treatment of chemical burns on the skin or eyes as well as meet other specified criteria. Acceptable studies had to use either a quantitative (e.g. number of work days lost) or qualitative (e.g. level of erythema) approach when measuring cutaneous or ocular lesion outcomes. Data extraction: Independent assessment of article inclusion by two authors using predefined criteria.Results and Conclusion: Diphoterine is safe and highly effective in improving healing time, healing sequelae and pain management of chemical burns on the skin and eyes of humans. Outcomes are significantly improved when compared to water or a physiologic solution equivalent. We recommend that this product be readily available to emergency responders and companies that expose their employees to hazardous chemical substances in order to improve healing sequelae, pain management and lost work days from these types of burns.

TI Kalirin reduction rescues psychosis-associated behavioral deficits in APPswe/PSEN1dE9 transgenic mice SO NEUROBIOLOGY OF AGING LA English DT Article DE Psychosis; Alzheimer disease; Kalirin ID AMYLOID PRECURSOR PROTEIN; PLACEBO-CONTROLLED TRIALS; INCREASED FAMILIAL RISK; ALZHEIMERS-DISEASE; MOUSE MODEL; COGNITIVE IMPAIRMENT; PSYCHOLOGICAL SYMPTOMS; P21-ACTIVATED KINASES; PREPULSE INHIBITION; MENTAL-RETARDATION AB Psychosis in Alzheimer's disease (AD+P) represents a distinct clinical and neurobiological AD phenotype and is associated with more rapid cognitive decline, higher rates of abnormal behaviors, and increased caregiver burden compared with AD without psychosis. On a molecular level, AD+P is associated with greater reductions in the protein kalirin, a guanine exchange factor which has also been linked to the psychotic disease, schizophrenia. In this study, we sought to determine the molecular and behavioral consequences of kalirin reduction in APPswe/PSEN1dE9 mice. We evaluated mice with and without kalirin reduction during tasks measuring psychosis-associated behaviors and spatial memory. We found that kalirin reduction in APPswe/PSEN1dE9 mice significantly attenuated psychosis-associated behavior at 12 months of age without changing spatial memory performance. The 12-month-old APPswe/PSEN1dE9 mice with reduced kalirin levels also had increased levels of the active, phosphorylated forms of p21 protein (Cdc42/Rac) eactivated kinases (PAKs), which function in signaling pathways for maintenance of dendritic spine density, morphology, and function.

Considered part of the parabrachial (PB) complex, KF contains glutamatergic neurons that project to respiratory-related targets in the medulla and spinal cord (Yokota, Oka, Tsumori, Nakamura, & Yasui, 2007). Here we describe an unexpected population of neurons in the caudal KF and adjacent lateral crescent subnucleus (PBlc), which are -aminobutyric acid (GABA)ergic and have an entirely different pattern of projections than glutamatergic KF neurons. First, immunofluorescence, in situ hybridization, and Cre-reporter labeling revealed that many of these GABAergic neurons express FoxP2 in both rats and mice. Next, using Cre-dependent axonal tracing in Vgat-IRES-Cre and Vglut2-IRES-Cre mice, we identified different projection patterns from GABAergic and glutamatergic neurons in this region. GABAergic neurons in KF and PBlc project heavily and almost exclusively to trigeminal sensory nuclei, with minimal projections to cardiorespiratory nuclei in the brainstem, and none to the spinal cord. In contrast, glutamatergic KF neurons project heavily to the autonomic, respiratory, and motor regions of the medulla and spinal cord previously identified as efferent targets mediating KF cardiorespiratory effects. These findings identify a novel, GABAergic subpopulation of KF/PB neurons with a distinct efferent projection pattern targeting the brainstem trigeminal sensory system. Rather than regulating breathing, we propose that these neurons influence vibrissal sensorimotor function.

The available treatment options for melanoma remain limited despite extensive clinical research. Melanoma is an immunogenic tumor and great advances in immunology in recent decades allow for the development of immunotherapeutic agents against melanoma. In recent years, immunotherapy utilizing cytokines has been particularly successful in certain cancers and holds promise for patients with advanced melanoma. In this review, an overview of the current status and emerging perspectives on cytokine immunotherapy for melanoma are discussed in details.

One was a homozygous transition mutation that results in an in-frame, premature translational stop codon in the ZNF135 gene predicted to encode a transcriptional repressor. Another mutation was heterozygous, a single nucleotide duplication in the KCNN2 gene that encodes a Ca2+ -activated K+ channel, SK2, and leads to a translational frame shift and a premature stop codon. Heterologous expression studies, brain slice recordings, and coordination tests from a transgenic mouse line carrying the SK2 mutation suggest that it does not contribute to the patient's symptoms. ZNF135 is expressed in human brain and it is likely that the homozygous mutation underlies the human phenotype. Copyright (C) 2017 The Author(s). Published by Wolters Kluwer Health, Inc.

TI Exploring Health Care Providers' Views About Initiating End-of-Life Care Communication SO AMERICAN JOURNAL OF HOSPICE & PALLIATIVE MEDICINE LA English DT Article DE health care providers; end-of-life care; communication; qualitative research; social work ID DISCUSSIONS; PERCEPTIONS; PHYSICIANS; DECISION; NEEDS AB Numerous factors impede effective and timely end-of-life (EOL) care communication. These factors include delays in communication until patients are seriously ill and/or close to death. Gaps in patient-provider communication negatively affect advance care planning and limit referrals to palliative and hospice care. Confusion about the roles of various health care providers also limits communication, especially when providers do not coordinate care with other health care providers in various disciplines. Although providers receive education regarding EOL communication and care coordination, little is known about the roles of all health care providers, including nonphysician support staff working with physicians to discuss the possibility of dying and help patients prepare for death. This study explores the perspectives of physicians, nurses, social workers, and chaplains on engaging seriously ill patients and families in EOL care communication. Qualitative data were from 79 (medical and nonmedical) providers practicing at 2 medical centers in Central Los Angeles. Three themes that describe providers' perceptions of their roles and responsibility in talking with seriously ill patients emerged: (1) providers' roles for engaging in EOL discussions, (2) responsibility of physicians for initiating and leading discussions, and (3) need for team co-management patient care. Providers highlighted the importance of beginning discussions early by having physicians lead them, specifically due to their medical training and need to clarify medical information regarding patients' prognosis. Although physicians are a vital part of leading EOL communication, and are at the center of communication of medical information, an interdisciplinary approach that involves nurses, social workers, and chaplains could significantly improve patient care.

TI Incidence of abnormal liver biochemical tests in hyperthyroidism SO CLINICAL ENDOCRINOLOGY LA English DT Article ID GRAVES-DISEASE; THYROTROPIN RECEPTOR; SERIAL CHANGES; THYROTOXICOSIS; PROPYLTHIOURACIL; ASSOCIATIONS; METHIMAZOLE; THERAPY; COHORT AB ObjectiveAbnormal serum liver function tests are common in patients with untreated thyrotoxicosis, even prior to the initiation of antithyroidal medications that may worsen the severity of the abnormal serum liver biochemistries. There is a wide range of the incidence of these abnormalities in the published literature. The aim of this study was to assess the risks factors and threshold of thyrotoxicosis severity for developing an abnormal liver biochemical test upon the diagnosis of new thyrotoxicosis. DesignSingle-institution retrospective cohort study. PatientsPatients of 18 years old receiving medical care at a large, academic, urban US medical centre between 2002-2016. MeasurementsInclusion criteria were a serum thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) concentration of <03 mIU/l or ICD-9 code for thyrotoxicosis, with thyrotoxicosis confirmed by either a concurrent elevated serum triiodothyronine (T3) or thyroxine (T4) concentration ([total or free] within 3 months), and an available liver biochemical test(s) within 6 months of thyrotoxicosis. The biochemical liver tests assessed were serum aspartate transaminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), alkaline phosphatase (AP), gamma-glutamyltransferase (GGT), total bilirubin, and conjugated bilirubin concentrations. ResultsIn this cohort of 1514 subjects, the overall incidence of any biochemical liver test abnormality within 6 months of thyrotoxicosis was 39%. An initial serum TSH concentration <002 mIU/l, male gender, and African-American race were significant predictors of an abnormal serum liver biochemical test within 6 months of the diagnosis of new-onset untreated thyrotoxicosis. ConclusionsThis study identifies risk factors for patients who develop an abnormal serum liver biochemical test result within 6 months of a diagnosis of untreated thyrotoxicosis.

TI Longitudinal Assessment of Proximal Tubular Dysfunction in HIV Seropositive and Seronegative Persons: Correlates and Implications SO JAIDS-JOURNAL OF ACQUIRED IMMUNE DEFICIENCY SYNDROMES LA English DT Article DE HIV; proximal tubular dysfunction; tenofovir disoproxil fumarate; antiretroviral therapy; glomerular filtration rate ID TENOFOVIR DISOPROXIL FUMARATE; INFECTED PATIENTS; ANTIRETROVIRAL THERAPY; URINARY ALBUMIN; TOTAL PROTEIN; DOUBLE-BLIND; NEPHROTOXICITY; ABNORMALITIES; EMTRICITABINE; ALAFENAMIDE AB Background: Proximal tubular dysfunction (PTD) is common in HIV-positive persons and has been associated with tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF). However, few studies have assessed the natural history PTD in HIV-positive and -negative individuals, or the association of PTD with the subsequent trajectory of directly measured glomerular filtration rate (mGFR). Methods: We followed 192 HIV-positive and 100 HIV-negative, nondiabetic participants for 3 years. We measured 3 PTD markers (normoglycemic glycosuria, fractional excretion of phosphorus, and tubular proteinuria) and mGFR (by iohexol disappearance from serum) annually. We used univariate and multivariate generalized estimating equation logistic regression to identify factors associated with PTD across all visits and linear mixed effects models to assess the association between baseline PTD and mGFR slope. Results: Compared with HIV-negative participants, HIV-positive persons that were not taking antiretroviral therapy were at increased risk of PTD (adjusted odds ratio 3.33; 95% confidence interval: 1.65 to 6.71), whereas those taking a TDF-based or a TDF-sparing regimen were not at significantly increased risk of PTD. Among HIV-positive participants, uncontrolled viremia was a strong correlate of PTD. Forty-nine of 55 (89%) participants with PTD at baseline had at least 1 subsequent visit without PTD. There was no association between baseline PTD and rate of decline in mGFR over time. Conclusions: Poorly controlled HIV may be a stronger risk factor for PTD than TDF use. The individual-level variability of the PTD markers over time was high, potentially limiting their usefulness for routine screening in unselected patients. Baseline PTD was not associated with subsequent mGFR slope. C1 [Sheets, Kerry M.] Johns Hopkins Bayview Med Ctr, Internal Med Residency Training Program, Baltimore, MD USA.

This retrospective cohort study included 135 adult patients admitted with a diagnosis of SCD vaso-occlusive crisis to the general medicine service at a tertiary care academic medical center from August 1, 2011 to August 1, 2013. If VTEP was discontinued, the medical record was reviewed for suspicion of VTE, hemorrhage, heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT), or other adverse events. The primary objective was to characterize the safety and effectiveness of VTEP in SCD. The secondary objective was to assess the correlation of VTE with risk factors documented in the general medical population. Most patients (116/135, 85.9%) were prescribed VTEP upon admission, with early discontinuation in 23 patients (19.8%). Reasons for discontinuation included suspicion of VTE (10/116, 8.6%), hemorrhage (5/116, 4.3%), and/or HIT (4/116, 3.4%). Since patients with SCD receiving standard VTEP regimens appear to have similar outcomes compared to medically ill patients in prospective studies, using these regimens appears to be safe when indicated in the opinion of the provider. Once daily injections may be preferred in order to optimize adherence. C1 [Kelley, Denise] UF Hlth Jacksonville Med Ctr, Dept Pharm, Jacksonville, FL 32209 USA.

TI Intrafamilial variable phenotype including corticobasal syndrome in a family with p.P301L mutation in the MAPT gene: first report in South America SO NEUROBIOLOGY OF AGING LA English DT Article DE FTD; MAPT; P301L; Cognition; CBS ID FRONTOTEMPORAL LOBAR DEGENERATION; PROGRESSIVE SUPRANUCLEAR PALSY; PROTEIN-TAU GENE; PARKINSONS-DISEASE; DEMENTIA; NEUROPATHOLOGY; AGGREGATION; TAUOPATHIES; ASSOCIATION; DIAGNOSIS AB Frontotemporal lobar degeneration is a neuropathological disorder that causes a variety of clinical syndromes including frontotemporal dementia (FTD), progressive supranuclear palsy, and corticobasal syndrome (CBS). FTD associated with parkinsonism occurs frequently as a result of mutations in the C9orf72 gene and also in the genes coding for the protein associated with microtubule tau (MAPT) and progranulin (GRN) on chromosome 17 (FTDP-17). Herein, we report an Argentinean family, of Basque ancestry, with an extensive family history of behavioral variant of FTD. Twenty-one members over 6 generations composed the pedigree. An extensive neurologic and neurocognitive examination was performed on 2 symptomatic individuals and 3 non-symptomatic individuals. Two different phenotypes were identified among affected members, CBS in the proband and FTD in his brother. DNA was extracted from blood for these 5 individuals and whole-exome sequencing was performed on 3 of them followed by Sanger sequencing of candidate genes on the other 2. In both affected individuals, a missense mutation (p.P301L; rs63751273) in exon 10 of the MAPT gene (chr17q21.3) was identified. Among MAPT mutations, p.P301L is the most frequently associated to different phenotypes: (1) aggressive, symmetrical, andearly-onset Parkinsonism; (2) late parkinsonism associated with FTD; and (3) progressive supranuclear palsy but only exceptionally it is reported associated to CBS. This is the first report of the occurrence of the p.P301L-MAPT mutation in South America and supports the marked phenotypic heterogeneity among members of the same family as previously reported.

Methods: We compared Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS (R)) GI symptom scales measuring gastro-esophageal reflux (GER), disrupted swallowing, diarrhea, bowel incontinence, nausea/vomiting, constipation, belly pain, and gas/bloating in: (i) USA GP sample, (ii) IBS patients, and (iii) IBD patients from tertiary care and community populations. Symptom severity scores were based on T-score metric with mean 5010 (standard deviation) relative to the GP. Key Results: Of 1643 patients enrolled, there were 253 IBS patients (68% F, mean age 45 +/- 15years), 213 IBD patients (46% F, mean age 41 +/- 14years), and 1177 GP subjects (57% F, mean age 46 +/- 16years). IBS patients reported greater severity of GER, disrupted swallowing, nausea/vomiting, belly pain, gas/bloating, and constipation symptoms than their IBD counterparts (all P<.05). Compared to the GP, IBD patients had worse belly pain, gas/bloating, diarrhea, and bowel incontinence, but less severe GER and disrupted swallowing (all P<.05), and IBS patients had more severe nausea/vomiting, belly pain, gas/bloating, and constipation (all P<.05). Women had more severe belly pain and gas/bloating than men, whereas men had more severe bowel incontinence (all P<.05). Conclusion & Inferences: IBS and IBD are associated with more severe GI symptoms compared to the GP excluding esophageal symptoms. Unlike IBD, IBS is not characterized by observable GI inflammation but patients report more severe upper and lower GI symptoms. C1 [Lee, A. D.; Spiegel, B. M.; Melmed, G.

Compared with weekly oral alendronate for 5 years, denosumab every 6 months for 5 years is cost-saving or cost-effective at a conventionally accepted threshold. The objective of the study was to examine the cost-effectiveness of subcutaneous denosumab every 6 months for 5 years compared with weekly oral alendronate for 5 years in Japan. We calculated incremental cost-effectiveness ratios [ICERs] (2016 US dollars [$] per quality-adjusted life year [QALY]), using a Markov microsimulation model among hypothetical cohorts of community-dwelling osteoporotic Japanese women without prior hip or vertebral fractures at various ages of therapy initiation (65, 70, 75, and 80 years) over a lifetime horizon from three perspectives: societal, healthcare sector, and government. Denosumab was cost-saving compared with alendronate at ages 75 and 80 years from any of the three perspectives. The ICERs of denosumab compared with alendronate were $25,700 and $5000 per QALY at ages 65 and 70 years from a societal perspective and did not exceed a willingness-to-pay of $50,000 per QALY from the other two perspectives. In deterministic sensitivity analyses, results were sensitive to changes in the effectiveness of denosumab for reducing hip fracture and clinical vertebral fracture and the rate ratio of non-persistence with denosumab compared to alendronate. In probabilistic sensitivity analyses, the probabilities of denosumab being cost-effective compared with alendronate were 89-100% at a willingness-to-pay of $50,000 per QALY. Among community-dwelling elderly osteoporotic women in Japan, denosumab every 6 months for 5 years is cost-saving or cost-effective at a conventionally accepted threshold of willingness-to-pay at all ages examined, compared with weekly alendronate for 5 years.

TI Intranasal oxytocin increases facial expressivity, but not ratings of trustworthiness, in patients with schizophrenia and healthy controls SO PSYCHOLOGICAL MEDICINE LA English DT Article DE Blunted affect; facial expressivity; oxytocin; schizophrenia; social cognition; trustworthiness ID RANDOMIZED CONTROLLED-TRIAL; SOCIAL COGNITION; NEGATIVE SYMPTOMS; FLAT AFFECT; EMOTION; JUDGMENTS; RESPONSES; AMYGDALA; FACES; VALIDATION AB Background. Blunted facial affect is a common negative symptom of schizophrenia. Additionally, assessing the trustworthiness of faces is a social cognitive ability that is impaired in schizophrenia. Currently available pharmacological agents are ineffective at improving either of these symptoms, despite their clinical significance. The hypothalamic neuropeptide oxytocin has multiple prosocial effects when administered intranasally to healthy individuals and shows promise in decreasing negative symptoms and enhancing social cognition in schizophrenia. Although two small studies have investigated oxytocin's effects on ratings of facial trustworthiness in schizophrenia, its effects on facial expressivity have not been investigated in any population. Method. We investigated the effects of oxytocin on facial emotional expressivity while participants performed a facial trustworthiness rating task in 33 individuals with schizophrenia and 35 age-matched healthy controls using a double-blind, placebo-controlled, cross-over design. Participants rated the trustworthiness of presented faces interspersed with emotionally evocative photographs while being video-recorded. Participants' facial expressivity in these videos was quantified by blind raters using a well-validated manualized approach (i.e. the Facial Expression Coding System; FACES). Results. While oxytocin administration did not affect ratings of facial trustworthiness, it significantly increased facial expressivity in individuals with schizophrenia (Z=-2.33, p=0.02) and at trend level in healthy controls (Z=-1.87, p=0.06). Conclusions. These results demonstrate that oxytocin administration can increase facial expressivity in response to emotional stimuli and suggest that oxytocin may have the potential to serve as a treatment for blunted facial affect in schizophrenia.

Genetic studies using intermediate quantitative traits such as biomarkers, or endophenotypes, benefit from increased statistical power to identify variants that may not pass the stringent multiple test correction in case-control studies. Endophenotypes also contain additional information helpful for identifying variants and genes associated with other aspects of disease, such as rate of progression or onset, and provide context to interpret the results from genome-wide association studies (GWAS). We conducted GWAS of amyloid beta (A beta(42)), tau, and phosphorylated tau (ptau181) levels in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) from 3146 participants across nine studies to identify novel variants associated with AD. Five genome-wide significant loci (two novel) were associated with ptau181, including loci that have also been associated with AD risk or brain-related phenotypes. Two novel loci associated with A beta(42) near GLIS1 on 1p32.3 (beta = -0.059, P = 2.08 x 10(-8)) and within SERPINB1 on 6p25 (beta = -0.025, P = 1.72 x 10(-8)) were also associated with AD risk (GLIS1: OR = 1.105, P = 3.43 x 10(-2)), disease progression (GLIS1: beta = 0.277, P = 1.92 x 10(-2)), and age at onset (SER-PINB1: beta = 0.043, P = 4.62 x 10(-3)). Bioinformatics indicate that the intronic SERPINB1 variant (rs316341) affects expression of SERPINB1 in various tissues, including the hippocampus, suggesting that SERPINB1 influences AD through an A beta-associated mechanism. Analyses of known AD risk loci suggest CLU and FERMT2 may influence CSF A beta(42) (P = 0.001 and P = 0.009, respectively) and the INPP5D locus may affect ptau181 levels (P = 0.009); larger studies are necessary to verify these results. Together the findings from this study can be used to inform future AD studies.

TI NLRP3 inflammasome blockade reduces liver inflammation and fibrosis in experimental NASH in mice SO JOURNAL OF HEPATOLOGY LA English DT Article DE NAFLD; NLRP3; Inflammasomes; Cholesterol crystals; Kupffer cells; Hepatocytes; Interleukin-1 beta; Fibrosis; Diet, atherogenic; Methionine; NLR proteins ID CROWN-LIKE STRUCTURES; NONALCOHOLIC STEATOHEPATITIS; CHOLESTEROL CRYSTALS; DIABETIC MICE; FATTY-ACID; DISEASE; ACTIVATION; LIPOTOXICITY; PATHOGENESIS; INJURY AB Background & Aims: NOD-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome activation occurs in Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). We used the first small molecule NLRP3 inhibitor, MCC950, to test whether inflammasome blockade alters inflammatory recruitment and liver fibrosis in two murine models of steatohepatitis. Methods: We fed foz/foz and wild-type mice an atherogenic diet for 16 weeks, gavaged MCC950 or vehicle until 24 weeks, then determined NAFLD phenotype. In mice fed an methionine/choline deficient (MCD) diet, we gavaged MCC950 or vehicle for 6 weeks and determined the effects on liver fibrosis. Results: In vehicle-treated foz/foz mice, hepatic expression of NLRP3, pro-IL-1 beta, active caspase-1 and IL-1 beta increased at 24 weeks, in association with cholesterol crystal formation and NASH pathology; plasma IL-1 beta, IL-6, MCP-1, ALT/AST all increased. MCC950 treatment normalized hepatic caspase 1 and IL-1b expression, plasma IL-1 beta, MCP-1 and IL-6, lowered ALT/AST, and reduced the severity of liver inflammation including designation as NASH pathology, and liver fibrosis. In vitro, cholesterol crystals activated Kupffer cells and macrophages to release IL-1 beta; MCC950 abolished this, and the associated neutrophil migration. MCD diet-fed mice developed fibrotic steatohepatitis; MCC950 suppressed the increase in hepatic caspase 1 and IL-1 beta, lowered numbers of macrophages and neutrophils in the liver, and improved liver fibrosis. Conclusion: MCC950, an NLRP3 selective inhibitor, improved NAFLD pathology and fibrosis in obese diabetic mice. This is potentially attributable to the blockade of cholesterol crystal-mediated NLRP3 activation in myeloid cells. MCC950 reduced liver fibrosis in MCD-fed mice. Targeting NLRP3 is a logical direction in pharmacotherapy of NASH. Lay summary: Fatty liver disease caused by being overweight with diabetes and a high risk of heart attack, termed nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), is the most common serious liver disease with no current treatment. There could be several causes of inflammation in NASH, but activation of a protein scaffold within cells termed the inflammasome (NLRP3) has been suggested to play a role. Here we show that cholesterol crystals could be one pathway to activate the inflammasome in NASH. We used a drug called MCC950, which has already been shown to block NLRP3 activation, in an attempt to reduce liver injury in NASH. This drug partly reversed liver inflammation, particularly in obese diabetic mice that most closely resembles the human context of NASH. In addition, such dampening of liver inflammation in NASH achieved with MCC950 partly reversed liver scarring, the process that links NASH to the development of cirrhosis.

Health care disparities, often of an obscure nature, result in African American women (AAw) having enhanced risk of adverse cardiovascular events. Therefore, we sought to determine the prevalence of calcified carotid artery atheromas (CCAA), a validated risk indicator of these events, on their digital panoramic images. Study Design. Comprehensive electronic medical records and digital panoramic images of self-identified AAw aged >= 45 years treated between 2007 and 2014 were retrieved from a Veterans Affairs Dental Service. Images were reviewed for CCAA in the cervical bifurcation region, and medical records were reviewed for atherogenic risk factors: hypertension, diabetes, and dyslipidemia. Results. The study sample of 171 AAw (mean age 58.2 +/- 8.0 years) evidenced a 24% CCAA positive prevalence rate. In comparison with the CCAA negative group, those with atheromas were significantly older (61.4 +/- 10.1 vs. 57.2 +/- 7.0), diabetic, and dyslipidemic. Also observed among the full study sample was significant concordant increase of CCAA prevalence with age. Among those who were CCAA positive, there was a significant increased prevalence of dyslipidemia with age. Conclusions. Panoramic images of older AAw frequently revealed carotid atheromas, a risk indicator of generalized atherosclerosis and future adverse cardiovascular events.

TI Transformation of hepatitis C antiviral treatment in a national healthcare system following the introduction of direct antiviral agents SO ALIMENTARY PHARMACOLOGY & THERAPEUTICS LA English DT Article ID SUSTAINED VIROLOGICAL RESPONSE; GENOTYPE 1 INFECTION; OF-VETERANS-AFFAIRS; VIRUS-INFECTION; HEPATOCELLULAR-CARCINOMA; UNITED-STATES; COST-EFFECTIVENESS; HCV; SOFOSBUVIR; DASABUVIR AB BackgroundHighly effective direct antiviral agents (DAAs) for hepatitis C virus (HCV) were introduced recently. Their utilisation has been limited by high cost and low access to care. AimTo describe the effect of DAAs on HCV treatment and cure rates in the United States Veterans Affairs (VA) national healthcare system. MethodsWe identified all HCV antiviral treatment regimens initiated from 1 January 1999 to 31 December 2015 (n = 105 369) in the VA national healthcare system, and determined if they resulted in sustained virological response (SVR). ResultsHCV antiviral treatment rates were low (1981-6679 treatments/year) in the interferon era (1999-2010). The introduction of simeprevir and sofosbuvir in 2013 and ledipasvir/sofosbuvir and paritaprevir/ombitasvir/ritonavir/dasabuvir in 2014 were followed by increases in annual treatment rates to 9180 in 2014 and 31 028 in 2015. The number of patients achieving SVR was 1313 in 2010, the last year of the interferon era, and increased 5.6-fold to 7377 in 2014 and 21-fold to 28 084 in 2015. The proportion of treated patients who achieved SVR increased from 19.2% in 1999 and 36.0% in 2010 to 90.5% in 2015. Within 2015, monthly treatment rates ranged from 727 in July to 6868 in September correlating with the availability of funds for DAAs. ConclusionsDAAs resulted in a 21-fold increase in the number of patients achieving HCV cure. Treatment rates in 2015 were limited primarily by the availability of funds. Further increases in funding and cost reductions of DAAs in 2016 suggest that the VA could cure the majority of HCV-infected Veterans in VA care within the next few years. C1 [Moon, A.

TI Neural consequences of post-exertion malaise in Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome SO BRAIN BEHAVIOR AND IMMUNITY LA English DT Article DE Exercise; Symptoms; Brain; Cognitive performance ID ANTERIOR CINGULATE CORTEX; STATE FUNCTIONAL CONNECTIVITY; BRAIN MRI ABNORMALITIES; GULF-WAR ILLNESS; MULTIPLE-SCLEROSIS; COGNITIVE FATIGUE; WORKING-MEMORY; POSTEXERTIONAL MALAISE; PROCESSING SPEED; MENTAL FATIGUE AB Post exertion malaise is one of the most debilitating aspects of Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, yet the neurobiological consequences are largely unexplored. The objective of the study was to determine the neural consequences of acute exercise using functional brain imaging. Fifteen female Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome patients and 15 healthy female controls completed 30 min of submaximal exercise (70% of peak heart rate) on a cycle ergometer. Symptom assessments (e.g. fatigue, pain, mood) and brain imaging data were collected one week prior to and 24 h following exercise. Functional brain images were obtained during performance of: 1) a fatiguing cognitive task - the Paced Auditory Serial Addition Task, 2) a non-fatiguing cognitive task - simple number recognition, and 3) a non fatiguing motor task - finger tapping. Symptom and exercise data were analyzed using independent samples t-tests. Cognitive performance data were analyzed using mixed-model analysis of variance with repeated measures. Brain responses to fatiguing and non-fatiguing tasks were analyzed using linear mixed effects with cluster-wise (101-voxels) alpha of 0.05. Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome patients reported large symptom changes compared to controls (effect size >= 0.8, p < 0.05). Patients and controls had similar physiological responses to exercise (p > 0.05). However, patients exercised at significantly lower Watts and reported greater exertion and leg muscle pain (p < 0.05). For cognitive performance, a significant Group by Time interaction (p < 0.05), demonstrated pre- to post-exercise improvements for controls and worsening for patients. Brain responses to finger tapping did not differ between groups at either time point. During number recognition, controls exhibited greater brain activity (p < 0.05) in the posterior cingulate cortex, but only for the pre-exercise scan. For the Paced Serial Auditory Addition Task, there was a significant Group by Time interaction (p < 0.05) with patients exhibiting increased brain activity from pre- to postexercise compared to controls bilaterally for inferior and superior parietal and cingulate cortices. Changes in brain activity were significantly related to symptoms for patients (p < 0.05). Acute exercise exacerbated symptoms, impaired cognitive performance and affected brain function in Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/ Chronic Fatigue Syndrome patients. These converging results, linking symptom exacerbation with brain function, provide objective evidence of the detrimental neurophysiological effects of post-exertion malaise.

Jon TI Serotonin and dopamine transporter PET changes in the premotor phase of LRRK2 parkinsonism: cross-sectional studies SO LANCET NEUROLOGY LA English DT Article ID G2019S MUTATION CARRIERS; DISEASE; DYSFUNCTION; BINDING; PROGRESSION AB Background People with Parkinson's disease can show premotor neurochemical changes in the dopaminergic and non-dopaminergic systems. Using PET, we assessed whether dopaminergic and serotonin transporter changes are similar in LRRK2 mutation carriers with Parkinson's disease and individuals with sporadic Parkinson's disease, and whether LRRK2 mutation carriers without motor symptoms show PET changes. Methods We did two cross-sectional PET studies at the Pacific Parkinson's Research Centre in Vancouver, BC, Canada. We included LRRK2 mutation carriers with or without manifest Parkinson's disease, people with sporadic Parkinson's disease, and age-matched healthy controls, all aged 18 years or older. People with Parkinson's disease were diagnosed by a neurologist with movement disorder training, in accordance with the UK Parkinson's Disease Society Brain Bank criteria. LRRK2 carrier status was confirmed by bidirectional Sanger sequencing. In the first study, LRRK2 mutation carriers with or without manifest Parkinson's disease who were referred for investigation between July, 1999, and January, 2012, were scanned with PET tracers for the membrane dopamine transporter, and dopamine synthesis and storage (F-18-6-fluoro-L-dopa; F-18-FDOPA). We compared findings with those in people with sporadic Parkinson's disease and age-matched healthy controls. In the second study, distinct groups of LRRK2 mutation carriers, individuals with sporadic Parkinson's disease, and age-matched healthy controls seen from November, 2012, to May, 2016, were studied with tracers for the serotonin transporter and vesicular monoamine transporter 2 (VMAT2). Striatal dopamine transporter binding, VMAT2 binding, F-18-FDOPA uptake, and serotonin transporter binding in multiple brain regions were compared by ANCOVA, adjusted for age. Findings Between January, 1997, and January, 2012, we obtained data for our first study from 40 LRRK2 mutation carriers, 63 individuals with sporadic Parkinson's disease, and 35 healthy controls. We identified significant group differences in striatal dopamine transporter binding (all age ranges in caudate and putamen, p<0.0001) and F-18-FDOPA uptake (in caudate: age <= 50 years, p=0.0002; all other age ranges, p<0.0001; in putamen: all age ranges, p<0.0001). LRRK2 mutation carriers with manifest Parkinson's disease (n=15) had reduced striatal dopamine transporter binding and F-18-FDOPA uptake, comparable with amounts seen in individuals with sporadic Parkinson's disease of similar duration. LRRK2 mutation carriers without manifest Parkinson's disease (n=25) had greater F-18-FDOPA uptake and dopamine transporter binding than did individuals with sporadic Parkinson's disease, with F-18-FDOPA uptake comparable with controls and dopamine transporter binding lower than in controls. Between November, 2012, and May, 2016, we obtained data for our second study from 16 LRRK2 mutation carriers, 13 individuals with sporadic Parkinson's disease, and nine healthy controls. Nine LRRK2 mutation carriers without manifest Parkinson's disease had significantly elevated serotonin transporter binding in the hypothalamus (compared with controls, individuals with LRRK2 Parkinson's disease, and people with sporadic Parkinson's disease, p<0.0001), striatum (compared with people with sporadic Parkinson's disease, p=0.02), and brainstem (compared with LRRK2 mutation carriers with manifest Parkinson's disease, p=0.01), after adjustment for age. Serotonin transporter binding in the cortex did not differ significantly between groups after age adjustment. Striatal VMAT2 binding was reduced in all individuals with manifest Parkinson's disease and reduced asymmetrically in one LRRK2 mutation carrier without manifest disease. Interpretation Dopaminergic and serotonergic changes progress in a similar fashion in LRRK2 mutation carriers with manifest Parkinson's disease and individuals with sporadic Parkinson's disease, but LRRK2 mutation carriers without manifest Parkinson's disease show increased serotonin transporter binding in the striatum, brainstem, and hypothalamus, possibly reflecting compensatory changes in serotonergic innervation preceding the motor onset of Parkinson's disease. Increased serotonergic innervation might contribute to clinical differences in LRRK2 Parkinson's disease, including the emergence of non-motor symptoms and, potentially, differences in the long-term response to levodopa.

TI BVES regulates c-Myc stability via PP2A and suppresses colitis-induced tumourigenesis SO GUT LA English DT Article ID INFLAMMATORY-BOWEL-DISEASE; JUNCTIONAL ADHESION MOLECULE; DEXTRAN SODIUM-SULFATE; ULCERATIVE-COLITIS; TIGHT JUNCTION; COLORECTAL-CANCER; COLON-CARCINOMA; GASTRIC-CANCER; E-CADHERIN; EXPRESSION AB Objective Blood vessel epicardial substance (BVES) is a tight junction-associated protein that regulates epithelial-mesenchymal states and is underexpressed in epithelial malignancy. However, the functional impact of BVES loss on tumourigenesis is unknown. Here we define the in vivo role of BVES in colitis-associated cancer (CAC), its cellular function and its relevance to patients with IBD. Design We determined BVES promoter methylation status using an Infinium HumanMethylation450 array screen of patients with UC with and without CAC. We also measured BVES mRNA levels in a tissue microarray consisting of normal colons and CAC samples. Bves(-/-) and wild-type mice (controls) were administered azoxymethane (AOM) and dextran sodium sulfate (DSS) to induce tumour formation. Last, we used a yeast two-hybrid screen to identify BVES interactors and performed mechanistic studies in multiple cell lines to define how BVES reduces c-Myc levels. Results BVES mRNA was reduced in tumours from patients with CAC via promoter hypermethylation. Importantly, BVES promoter hypermethylation was concurrently present in distant non-malignant-appearing mucosa. As seen in human patients, Bves was underexpressed in experimental inflammatory carcinogenesis, and Bves(-/-) mice had increased tumour multiplicity and degree of dysplasia after AOM/DSS administration. Molecular analysis of Bves(-/-) tumours revealed Wnt activation and increased c-Myc levels. Mechanistically, we identified a new signalling pathway whereby BVES interacts with PR61 alpha, a protein phosphatase 2A regulatory subunit, to mediate c-Myc destruction. Conclusion Loss of BVES promotes inflammatory tumourigenesis through dysregulation of Wnt signalling and the oncogene c-Myc. BVES promoter methylation status may serve as a CAC biomarker.

TI Clinical Outcomes for Patients with Gleason Score 9-10 Prostate Adenocarcinoma Treated With Radiotherapy or Radical Prostatectomy: A Multi-institutional Comparative Analysis SO EUROPEAN UROLOGY LA English DT Article DE Gleason 9; Gleason 10; Radiotherapy; Radical prostatectomy ID ANDROGEN-DEPRIVATION THERAPY; ISUP CONSENSUS CONFERENCE; INTERNATIONAL-SOCIETY; RANDOMIZED-TRIALS; RADIATION-THERAPY; BEAM RADIOTHERAPY; HORMONAL-THERAPY; SHORT-TERM; CANCER; CARCINOMA AB Background: The long natural history of prostate cancer (CaP) limits comparisons of efficacy between radical prostatectomy (RP) and external beam radiotherapy (EBRT), since patients treated years ago received treatments considered suboptimal by modern standards (particularly with regards to androgen deprivation therapy [ADT] and radiotherapy dose-escalation]. Gleason score (GS) 9-10 CaP is particularly aggressive, and clinically-relevant endpoints occur early, facilitating meaningful comparisons. Objective: To compare outcomes of patientswithGS 9-10 CaP following EBRT, extremely-dose escalatedradiotherapy(as exemplifiedbyEBRT + brachytherapy[EBRT + BT]), andRP. Design, setting, participants: Retrospective analysis of 487 patients with biopsy GS 9-10 CaP treated between 2000 and 2013 (230 with EBRT, 87 with EBRT + BT, and 170 with RP). Most radiotherapy patients received ADT and dose-escalated radiotherapy. Outcome measurements and statistical analysis: Kaplan-Meier analysis and multivariate Cox regression estimated and compared 5-yr and 10-yr rates of distant metastasisfree survival, cancer-specific survival (CSS), and overall survival (OS). Results and limitations: The median follow-up was 4.6 yr. Local salvage and systemic salvage were performed more frequently in RP patients (49.0% and 30.1%) when compared with either EBRT patients (0.9% and 19.7%) or EBRT + BT patients (1.2% and 16.1%, p < 0.0001). Five-yr and 10-yr distant metastasis-free survival rates were significantly higher with EBRT + BT (94.6% and 89.8%) than with EBRT (78.7% and 66.7%, p = 0.0005) or RP (79.1% and 61.5%, p < 0.0001). The 5-yr and 10-yr CSS and OS rates were similar across all three cohorts. Conclusions: Radiotherapy and RP provide equivalent CSS and OS. Extremely dose-escalated radiotherapy with ADT in particular offers improved systemic control when compared with either EBRT or RP. These data suggest that extremely dose-escalated radiotherapy with ADT might be the optimal upfront treatment for patients with biopsy GS 9-10 CaP. Patient summary: While some prostate cancers are slow-growing requiring many years, sometimes decades, of follow-up in order to compare between radiation and surgery, high-risk and very aggressive cancers follow a much shorter time course allowing such comparisons to bemade and updated as treatments, especially radiation, rapidly evolve. We showed that radiation-based treatments and surgery, with contemporary standards, offer equivalent survival for patientswith very aggressive cancers (defined asGleason score 9-10). Extremely-dose escalated radiotherapy with short-course androgen deprivation therapy offered the least risk of developing metastases, and equivalent long term survival.

We describe the design and early implementation experience of a pilot, cluster-randomized pragmatic trial to evaluate the feasibility, implementation, and effectiveness of a "triple marker" CKD screening program (creatinine, cystatin C and albumin to creatinine ratio) for improving care among hypertensive veterans seen in primary care at one Veterans Administration Hospital. Methods/design: Non-diabetic hypertensive veterans age 18-80 without known CKD were randomized in clusters determined by primary care provider (unit of randomization) into three arms. Usual care will be compared with two incrementally intensified treatment strategies: (1) screen for CKD followed by patient and provider education or (2) screen-educate plus a clinical pharmacist-led CKD and BP management program. The primary clinical outcome is systolic blood pressure (BP) change from baseline. Secondary clinical outcome is BP control. The primary process outcomes is triple marker screening (across three arms), and secondary process outcomes include use of inhibitors of the renin-angiotensin system (ACE/ARB) overall and in persons with albuminuria, CKD recognition by PCP, use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and NSAID education by PCP. The design uses the Veterans Health Administration electronic health record (EHR) to identify participants, deliver the interventions and ascertain study outcomes. Assessment of the program implementation will use the Reach, Effectiveness, Adoption, Implementation, and Maintenance (RE-AIM) framework. Study duration is 12 months. Results: A total of 1,819 patients have been randomized within 41 provider clusters. The median age (interquartile range) is 68 years (61-72), and 99% of participants are male. Approximately 16% are Black, and 5% Hispanic. In the first 6 months of the trial, 434 triple marker screening tests have been ordered, and 217(50%) have been tested. A total of 48 new CKD cases have been identified among those tested, for a preliminary yield of 22%. Conclusion: We have successfully implemented a pragmatic protocol that uses the EHR to identify and characterize eligible participants, deliver the intervention, and ascertain study outcomes with high rates of participation by providers and patients. Results from this study can guide design of pragmatic trials in the field of CKD.

TI Sex differences in healthcare expenditures among adults with diabetes: evidence from the medical expenditure panel survey, 2002-2011 SO BMC HEALTH SERVICES RESEARCH LA English DT Article DE Sex differences; Healthcare expenditures; Adults; Diabetes ID UNITED-STATES; US ADULTS; COSTS; MODELS AB Background: The evidence assessing differences in medical costs between men and women with diabetes living in the United States is sparse; however, evidence suggests women generally have higher healthcare expenditures compared to men. Since little is known about these differences, the aim of this study was to assess differences in out-of-pocket (OOP) and total healthcare expenditures among adults with diabetes. Methods: Data were used from 20,442 adults (>= 18 years of age) with diabetes from the 2002-2011 Medical Expenditure Panel Survey. Dependent variables were OOP and total direct expenditures for multiple health services (prescription, office-based, inpatient, outpatient, emergency, dental, home healthcare, and other services). The independent variable was sex. Covariates included sociodemographic characteristics, comorbid conditions, and time. Sample demographics were summarized. Mean OOP and total direct expenditures for health services by sex status were analyzed. Regression models were performed to assess incremental costs of healthcare expenditures by sex among adults with diabetes. Results: Fifty-six percent of the sample was composed of women. Unadjusted mean OOP costs were higher for women for prescriptions ($1177; 95% CI $1117-$1237 vs. $959; 95% CI $918-$1000; p < 0.001) compared to men. Unadjusted mean total direct expenditures were also higher for women for prescriptions ($3797; 95% CI $3660-$3934 vs. $3334; 95% CI $3208-$3460; p < 0.001) and home healthcare ($752; 95% CI $646-$858 vs. $397; 95% CI $332-$462; p < 0.001). When adjusting for covariates, higher OOP and total direct costs persisted for women for prescription services (OOP: $156; 95% CI $87-$ 225; p < 0.001 and total: $184; 95% CI $50-$318; p = 0.007). Women also paid > $50 OOP for office-based visits (p < 0.001) and > $55 total expenditures for home healthcare (p = 0.041) compared to men after adjustments. Conclusions: Our findings show women with diabetes have higher OOP and total direct expenditures compared to men. Additional research is needed to investigate this disparity between men and women and to understand the associated drivers and clinical implications. Policy recommendations are warranted to minimize the higher burden of costs for women with diabetes.

Among the challenges of immunotherapeutic approaches for cancer are the multitudes of mechanisms by which cancers are known to subvert the immune defenses. This has led to the incorporation into the immunotherapeutic arsenal strategies by which to overcome the cancer's immunological blockades. What has been only superficially explored is the immunological milieu of premalignant lesions and the possibility of immunological approaches for the treatment of premalignant lesions so as to prevent secondary pre malignant lesions and their progression to cancer. This review discusses the immunological environment associated with premalignant lesions, and the possible missed opportunity of utilizing immunological treatment strategies in the less hostile environment of premalignant lesions as compared to the immune subversive cancer environment.

Because hydrogen sulfide (H2S) inhibits high glucose-induced matrix protein increase by activating AMPK in renal cells, we examined whether H2S inhibits high glucose-induced expression of NOX4 and matrix protein and whether H2S and NO pathways are integrated. High glucose increased NOX4 expression and activity at 24 h in renal proximal tubular epithelial cells, which was inhibited by sodium hydrosulfide (NaHS), a source of H2S. High glucose decreased AMPK phosphorylation and activity, which was restored by NaHS. Compound C, an AMPK inhibitor, prevented NaHS inhibition of high glucose-induced NOX4 expression. NaHS inhibition of high glucose-induced NOX4 expression was abrogated by N()-nitro-l-arginine methyl ester, an inhibitor of NOS. NaHS unexpectedly augmented the expression of inducible NOS (iNOS) but not endothelial NOS. iNOS siRNA and 1400W, a selective iNOS inhibitor, abolished the ameliorative effects of NaHS on high glucose-induced NOX4 expression, reactive oxygen species generation, and, matrix laminin expression. Thus, H2S recruits iNOS to generate NO to inhibit high glucose-induced NOX4 expression, oxidative stress, and matrix protein accumulation in renal epithelial cells; the two gasotransmitters H2S and NO and their interaction may serve as therapeutic targets in diabetic kidney disease.

We have used RNA-sequencing analysis and linear mixed models to examine the sources of gene expression variability in 317 human iPSC lines from 101 individuals. We found that similar to 50% of genome-wide expression variability is explained by variation across individuals and identified a set of expression quantitative trait loci that contribute to this variation. These analyses coupled with allele-specific expression show that iPSCs retain a donor-specific gene expression pattern. Network, pathway, and key driver analyses showed that Polycomb targets contribute significantly to the non-genetic variability seen within and across individuals, highlighting this chromatin regulator as a likely source of reprogramming-based variability. Our findings therefore shed light on variation between iPSC lines and illustrate the potential for our dataset and other similar large-scale analyses to identify underlying drivers relevant to iPSC applications.

TI VA residential substance use disorder treatment program providers' perceptions of facilitators and barriers to performance on pre-admission processes SO ADDICTION SCIENCE & CLINICAL PRACTICE LA English DT Article DE Substance use disorders; Residential treatment; Standards of care; Quality measurement; Quality improvement ID QUALITY MEASURES AB Background: In the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), residential treatment programs are an important part of the continuum of care for patients with a substance use disorder (SUD). However, a limited number of program-specific measures to identify quality gaps in SUD residential programs exist. This study aimed to: (1) Develop metrics for two pre-admission processes: Wait Time and Engagement While Waiting, and (2) Interview program management and staff about program structures and processes that may contribute to performance on these metrics. The first aim sought to supplement the VA's existing facility-level performance metrics with SUD program-level metrics in order to identify high-value targets for quality improvement. The second aim recognized that not all key processes are reflected in the administrative data, and even when they are, new insight may be gained from viewing these data in the context of day-to-day clinical practice. Methods: VA administrative data from fiscal year 2012 were used to calculate pre-admission metrics for 97 programs (63 SUD Residential Rehabilitation Treatment Programs (SUD RRTPs); 34 Mental Health Residential Rehabilitation Treatment Programs (MH RRTPs) with a SUD track). Interviews were then conducted with management and front-line staff to learn what factors may have contributed to high or low performance, relative to the national average for their program type. We hypothesized that speaking directly to residential program staff may reveal innovative practices, areas for improvement, and factors that may explain system-wide variability in performance. Results: Average wait time for admission was 16 days (SUD RRTPs: 17 days; MH RRTPs with a SUD track: 11 days), with 60% of Veterans waiting longer than 7 days. For these Veterans, engagement while waiting occurred in an average of 54% of the waiting weeks (range 3-100% across programs). Fifty-nine interviews representing 44 programs revealed factors perceived to potentially impact performance in these domains. Efficient screening processes, effective patient flow, and available beds were perceived to facilitate shorter wait times, while lack of beds, poor staffing levels, and lengths of stay of existing patients were thought to lengthen wait times. Accessible outpatient services, strong patient outreach, and strong encouragement of pre-admission outpatient treatment emerged as facilitators of engagement while waiting; poor staffing levels, socioeconomic barriers, and low patient motivation were viewed as barriers. Conclusions: Metrics for pre-admission processes can be helpful for monitoring residential SUD treatment programs. Interviewing program management and staff about drivers of performance metrics can play a complementary role by identifying innovative and other strong practices, as well as high-value targets for quality improvement. Key facilitators of high-performing facilities may offer programs with lower performance useful strategies to improve specific pre-admission processes.

TI A Hybrid III stepped wedge cluster randomized trial testing an implementation strategy to facilitate the use of an evidence-based practice in VA Homeless Primary Care Treatment Programs SO IMPLEMENTATION SCIENCE LA English DT Article DE Facilitation; Step wedge design; Co-occurring disorders; Vulnerable populations ID MENTAL-ILLNESS; NATIONAL DISSEMINATION; EXTERNAL FACILITATION; SUBSTANCE-ABUSE; QUERI SERIES; HEALTH; INTERVENTION; INDIVIDUALS; VETERANS; DESIGNS AB Background: Homeless veterans often have multiple health care and psychosocial needs, including assistance with access to housing and health care, as well as support for ongoing treatment engagement. The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) developed specialized Homeless Patient Alignment Care Teams (HPACT) with the goal of offering an integrated, " one-stop program" to address housing and health care needs of homeless veterans. However, while 70% of HPACT's veteran enrollees have co-occurring mental health and substance use disorders, HPACT does not have a uniform, embedded treatment protocol for this subpopulation. One wraparound intervention designed to address the needs of homeless veterans with co-occurring mental health and substance use disorders which is suitable to be integrated into HPACT clinic sites is the evidence-based practice called Maintaining Independence and Sobriety through Systems Integration, Outreach, and Networking-Veterans Edition, or MISSION-Vet. Despite the promise of MISSION-Vet within HPACT clinics, implementation of an evidence-based intervention within a busy program like HPACT can be difficult. The current study is being undertaken to identify an appropriate implementation strategy for MISSION-Vet within HPACT. The study will test the implementation platform called Facilitation and compared to implementation as usual (IU). The aims of this study are as follows: (1) Compare the extent to which IU or Facilitation strategies achieve fidelity to the MISSION-Vet intervention as delivered by HPACT homeless provider staff. (2) Compare the effects of Facilitation and IU strategies on the National HPACT Performance Measures. (3) Compare the effects of IU and Facilitation on the permanent housing status. (4) Identify and describe key stakeholders' (patients, providers, staff) experiences with, and perspectives on, the barriers to, and facilitators of implementing MISSION. Design: Type III Hybrid modified stepped wedge implementation comparing IU to Facilitation across seven HPACT teams in three sites in the greater Los Angeles VA system. This is a cluster randomized trial. Discussion: Integrating MISSION-Vet within HPACT has the potential to improve the health of thousands of veterans, but it is crucial to implement the intervention appropriately in order for it to succeed. The lessons learned in this protocol could assist with a larger roll-out of MISSION within HPACT. This protocol is registered with clinicaltrials. gov and was assigned the number NCT 02942979.

We aim to evaluate the diagnostic performance and clinical impact of 4D MUSIC in a cohort of neonates and infants with congenital heart disease (CHD). Methods: Forty consecutive neonates and infants with CHD (age range 2 days to 2 years, weight 1 to 13 kg) underwent 3.0 T CMR with ferumoxytol enhancement (FE) at a single institution. Independently, two readers graded the diagnostic image quality of intra-cardiac structures and related vascular segments on FE-MUSIC and breath held FE-CMRA images using a four-point scale. Correlation of the CMR findings with surgery and other imaging modalities was performed in all patients. Clinical impact was evaluated in consensus with referring surgeons and cardiologists. One point was given for each of five key outcome measures: 1) change in overall management, 2) change in surgical approach, 3) reduction in the need for diagnostic catheterization, 4) improved assessment of risk-to-benefit for planned intervention and discussion with parents, 5) accurate pre-procedural roadmap. Results: All FE-CMR studies were completed successfully, safely and without adverse events. On a four-point scale, the average FE-MUSIC image quality scores were >3.5 for intra-cardiac structures and >3.0 for coronary arteries. Intra-cardiac morphology and vascular anatomy were well visualized with good interobserver agreement (r = 0.46). Correspondence between the findings on MUSIC, surgery, correlative imaging and autopsy was excellent. The average clinical impact score was 4.2 +/- 0.9. In five patients with discordant findings on echo/MUSIC (n = 5) and catheter angiography/MUSIC (n = 1), findings on FE-MUSIC were shown to be accurate at autopsy (n = 1) and surgery (n = 4). The decision to undertake biventricular vs univentricular repair was amended in 2 patients based on FE-MUSIC findings. Plans for surgical approaches which would have involved circulatory arrest were amended in two of 28 surgical cases. In all 28 cases requiring procedural intervention, FE-MUSIC provided accurate dynamic 3D roadmaps and more confident risk-to-benefit assessments for proposed interventions. Conclusions: FE-MUSIC CMR has high clinical impact by providing accurate, high quality, simple and safe dynamic 3D imaging of cardiac and vascular anatomy in neonates and infants with CHD. The findings influenced patient management in a positive manner. C1 [Kim-Lien Nguyen; Han, Fei; Zhou, Ziwu; Brunengraber, Daniel Z.; Hu, Peng; Finn, J.

For instance, correlations in blood-oxygen-level-dependent (BOLD) signal time series are commonly used to make inferences about "functional connectivity." Correlations across samples in structural morphometric measures, such as voxel-based morphometry (VBM) or cortical thickness (CT), have also been used to estimate connectivity, putatively through mutually trophic effects on connected brain areas. In this study, we have compared seed-based connectivity estimates obtained from four common correlational approaches: resting-state functional connectivity (RS-fMRI), meta-analytic connectivity modeling (MACM), VBM correlations, and CT correlations. We found that the two functional approaches (RS-fMRI and MACM) had the best agreement. While the two structural approaches (CT and VBM) had better-than-random convergence, they were no more similar to each other than to the functional approaches. The degree of correspondence between modalities varied considerably across seed regions, and also depended on the threshold applied to the connectivity distribution. These results demonstrate some degrees of similarity between connectivity inferred from structural and functional covariances, particularly for the most robust functionally connected regions (e.g., the default mode network). However, they also caution that these measures likely capture very different aspects of brain structure and function.

When treatment of SE is delayed, the number of synaptic GABA(A)Rs is drastically reduced, and a GABA(A) agonist cannot fully restore inhibition. We used a combination of low-dose diazepam (to stimulate the remaining GABA(A)Rs), ketamine (to mitigate the effect of the NMDAR increase), and valproate (to enhance inhibition at a nonbenzodiazepine site) to treat seizures in a model of severe cholinergic SE. High doses of diazepam failed to stop electrographic SE, showing that benzodiazepine pharmacoresistance had developed. The diazepam-ketamine-valproate combination was far more effective in stopping SE than triple-dose monotherapy using the same individual drugs. Isobolograms showed that this drug combination's therapeutic actions were synergistic, with positive cooperativity between drugs, whereas drug toxicity was simply additive, without positive or negative cooperativity. As a result, the therapeutic index was improved by this drug combination compared to monotherapy. These results suggest that synergistic drug combinations that target receptor changes can control benzodiazepine-refractory SE.

TI Family Report Compared to Clinician-Documented Diagnoses for Psychiatric Conditions Among Hospitalized Children SO JOURNAL OF HOSPITAL MEDICINE LA English DT Article ID MENTAL-HEALTH DISORDERS; COLLABORATIVE CARE; UNITED-STATES; SERVICES ASSESSMENT; ANXIETY DISORDERS; PERCEIVED STIGMA; DEPRESSION; TRIAL; ILLNESS; YOUTH AB BACKGROUND: Psychiatric comorbidity is common in pediatric medical and surgical hospitalizations and is associated with worse hospital outcomes. Integrating medical or surgical and psychiatric hospital care depends on accurate estimates of which hospitalized children have psychiatric comorbidity. OBJECTIVE: We conducted a study to determine agreement of family report (FR) and clinician documentation (CD) identification of psychiatric diagnoses in hospitalized children. DESIGN AND SETTING: This was a cross-sectional study at a tertiary-care children's hospital. PATIENTS: The patients were children and adolescents (age, 4-21 years) who were hospitalized for medical or surgical indications. MEASUREMENTS: Psychiatric diagnoses were identified from structured interviews (FR) and from inpatient notes and International Classification of Diseases codes in medical records (CD). We compared estimates of point prevalence of any comorbid psychiatric diagnosis using each method, and estimated FR-CD agreement in identifying psychiatric comorbidity in hospitalized children. RESULTS: Of 119 study patients, 26 (22%; 95% confidence interval [CI], 14%-29%) had a psychiatric comorbidity identified by FR, 30 (25%; 95% CI, 17%-34%) had it identified by CD, and 37 (23%-40%) had it identified by FR or CD. Agreement between FR and CD was low overall (kappa = .46; 95% CI, .27-.66), highest for attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (kappa=.78; 95% CI, .59-.97), and lowest for anxiety disorders (kappa = .11; 95% CI, -.16 to.56). CONCLUSIONS: Current methods may underestimate the prevalence of psychiatric conditions in hospitalized children. Information from multiple sources may be needed to develop accurate estimates of the scope of the population in need of services so that mental health resources can be appropriately allocated.

Moderated hierarchical regression analyses revealed that acculturative stress negatively and secure parental and professor attachment positively predicted academic integration. Secure professor attachment positively predicted grade point average. Mother attachment may buffer against acculturative stress on academic integration; father attachment may exacerbate it. Counselors may use these findings to enhance AISs' attachment functioning for their college adjustment. Este estudio examino el apego parental y el apego al profesor como protectores contra el estres aculturativo y como indicadores de adaptacion al entorno academico en 210 estudiantes internacionales asiaticos (AIS, por sus siglas en ingles). Los analisis de regresion jerarquica moderada revelaron que el estres aculturativo fue un indicador negativo de integracion academica, mientras que el apego parental y el apego al profesor fueron indicadores positivos. El apego seguro al profesor fue un indicador positivo de la media de las calificaciones academicas. El apego materno puede proteger contra el estres aculturativo en la integracion academica; el apego paterno puede agravarlo.

TI Beta-Blocker Use in US Nursing Home Residents After Myocardial Infarction: A National Study SO JOURNAL OF THE AMERICAN GERIATRICS SOCIETY LA English DT Article DE nursing homes; myocardial infarction; beta-blockers; elderly; drug utilization ID CONVERTING ENZYME-INHIBITORS; CALCIUM-CHANNEL BLOCKERS; CORONARY-ARTERY-DISEASE; MINIMUM DATA SET; OLDER PATIENTS; HEART-FAILURE; PRACTICE GUIDELINES; ELDERLY SURVIVORS; PRIMARY-CARE; THERAPY AB ObjectivesTo evaluate how often beta-blockers were started after acute myocardial infarction (AMI) in nursing home (NH) residents who previously did not use these drugs and to evaluate which factors were associated with post-AMI use of beta-blockers. DesignRetrospective cohort using linked national Minimum Data Set assessments; Online Survey, Certification and Reporting records; and Medicare claims. SettingU.S. NHs. ParticipantsNational cohort of 15,720 residents aged 65 and older who were hospitalized for AMI between May 2007 and March 2010, had not taken beta-blockers for at least 4 months before their AMI, and survived 14 days or longer after NH readmission. MeasurementsThe outcome was beta-blocker initiation within 30 days of NH readmission. ResultsFifty-seven percent (n = 8,953) of residents initiated a beta-blocker after AMI. After covariate adjustment, use of beta-blockers was less in older residents (ranging from odds ratio (OR) = 0.89, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 0.79-1.00 for aged 75-84 to OR = 0.65, 95% CI = 0.54-0.79 for 95 vs 65-74) and less in residents with higher levels of functional impairment (dependent or totally dependent vs independent to limited assistance: OR = 0.84, 95% CI = 0.75-0.94) and medication use (15 vs 10 medications: OR = 0.89, 95% CI = 0.80-0.99). A wide variety of resident and NH characteristics were not associated with beta-blocker use, including sex, cognitive function, comorbidity burden, and NH ownership. ConclusionAlmost half of older NH residents in the United States do not initiate a beta-blocker after AMI. The absence of observed factors that strongly predict beta-blocker use may indicate a lack of consensus on how to manage older NH residents, suggesting the need to develop and disseminate thoughtful practice standards.

TI Organizational Learning Strategies and Verbal Memory Deficits in Bipolar Disorder SO JOURNAL OF THE INTERNATIONAL NEUROPSYCHOLOGICAL SOCIETY LA English DT Article DE Cognitive deficits; Cognitive remediation; Functional remediation; Mood disorder; Semantic clustering; Serial clustering ID COGNITIVE IMPAIRMENT; I DISORDER; NEUROCOGNITIVE IMPAIRMENT; 1ST-DEGREE RELATIVES; EXECUTIVE CONTROL; EUTHYMIC PATIENTS; RATING-SCALE; FOLLOW-UP; METAANALYSIS; SCHIZOPHRENIA AB Background: Verbal memory (VM) impairment is prominent in bipolar disorder (BD) and is linked to functional outcomes. However, the intricacies of VM impairment have not yet been studied in a large sample of BD patients. Moreover, some have proposed VM deficits that may be mediated by organizational strategies, such as semantic or serial clustering. Thus, the exact nature of VM break-down in BD patients is not well understood, limiting remediation efforts. We investigated the intricacies of VM deficits in BD patients versus healthy controls (HCs) and examined whether verbal learning differences were mediated by use of clustering strategies. Methods: The California Verbal Learning Test (CVLT) was administered to 113 affectively stable BD patients and 106 HCs. We compared diagnostic groups on all CVLT indices and investigated whether group differences in verbal learning were mediated by clustering strategies. Results: Although BD patients showed significantly poorer attention, learning, and memory, these indices were only mildly impaired. However, BD patients evidenced poorer use of effective learning strategies and lower recall consistency, with these indices falling in the moderately impaired range. Moreover, relative reliance on semantic clustering fully mediated the relationship between diagnostic category and verbal learning, while reliance on serial clustering partially mediated this relationship. Conclusions: VM deficits in affectively stable bipolar patients were widespread but were generally mildly impaired. However, patients displayed inadequate use of organizational strategies with clear separation from HCs on semantic and serial clustering. Remediation efforts may benefit from education about mnemonic devices or chunking" techniques to attenuate VM deficits in BD.

TI A Virtual Hope Box: Randomized Controlled Trial of a Smartphone App for Emotional Regulation and Coping With Distress SO PSYCHIATRIC SERVICES LA English DT Article ID COGNITIVE THERAPY; SUICIDE ATTEMPTS; LIVING INVENTORY; KILLING YOURSELF; STAYING ALIVE; SCALE; INTERVENTION; MILITARY; VALIDITY; BEHAVIOR AB Objective: The purpose of this study was to assess the impact of the Virtual Hope Box (VHB), a smartphone app to improve stress coping skills, suicidal ideation, and perceived reasons for living among patients at elevated risk of suicide and self-harm. Methods: The authors conducted a parallel-group randomized controlled trial with two groups of U.S. service veterans in active mental health treatment who had recently expressed suicidal ideation. Between March 2014 and April 2015, 118 patients were enrolled in the study. Participants were assigned to use the VHB (N=58) or to a control group that received printed materials about coping with suicidality (N=60) to supplement treatment as usual over a 12-week period. Three measures-the Coping Self-Efficacy Scale, Beck Scale for Suicidal Ideation, and Brief Reasons for Living Inventory-were collected at baseline (before randomization) and three, six, and 12 weeks. Secondary measures-the Interpersonal Needs Questionnaire, Perceived Stress Scale, and Columbia-Suicide Severity Rating Scale-were collected at baseline and 12 weeks. Results: VHB users reported significantly greater ability to cope with unpleasant emotions and thoughts (Coping Self-Efficacy Scale) at three (b=2.41, 95% confidence interval [CI]=.29-4.55) and 12 weeks (b=2.99, 95% CI=.08-5.90) compared with the control group. No significant advantage was found on other outcome measures for treatment augmented by the VHB. Conclusions: The VHB is a demonstrably useful accessory to treatment-an easily accessible tool that can increase stress coping skills. Because the app is easily disseminated across a large population, it is likely to have broad, positive utility in behavioral health care.

The aim of this study was to determine the impact of a collaborative care intervention for depression that was tailored for low-income Latino patients seen in public-sector clinics. Methods: A total of 400 depressed patients from three public-sector primary care clinics were enrolled in a randomized controlled trial of a tailored collaborative care intervention versus enhanced usual care. Social workers without previous mental health experience served as depression care specialists for the intervention patients (N=196). Depending on patient preference, they delivered a cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) intervention or facilitated antidepressant medication given by primary care providers or both. In enhanced usual care, patients (N=204) received a pamphlet about depression, a letter for their primary care provider stating that they had a positive depression screen, and a list of local mental health resources. Intent-to-treat analyses examined clinical and process-of-care outcomes at 16 weeks. Results: Compared with patients in the enhanced usual care group, patients in the intervention group had significantly improved depression, quality of life, and satisfaction outcomes (p<.001 for all). Intervention patients also had significantly improved quality-of-care indicators, including the proportion of patients receiving either psychotherapy or antidepressant medication (77% versus 21%, p<.001). Conclusions: Collaborative care for depression can greatly improve care and outcomes in public-sector clinics. Social workers without prior mental health experience can effectively provide CBT and manage depression care.

Methods: A total of 268 adults from five different mental health programs in Maryland took part. After baseline interview, consenting participants were randomly assigned to the nine-week ESS intervention or a minimally enhanced treatment-as-usual control condition. Participants were assessed by using symptom, psychosocial functioning, and self-stigma measures at baseline, postintervention, and sixmonth follow-up. Demographic characteristics were assessed at baseline. Results: Compared with participants in the control condition, ESS group participants showed significant decreases on the stereotype agreement and self-concurrence subscales of the Self Stigma of Mental Illness Scale, significant improvement on the alienation and stigma resistance subscales of the Internalized Stigma Mental Illness measure, and a significant increase in recovery orientation from baseline to postintervention. None of these differences were sustained at six-month follow-up. Conclusions: Results indicate that ESS was useful in helping to reduce key aspects of internalized stigma among individuals with mental illnesses and that advances in the delivery, targeting, and content of the intervention in the field may be warranted to increase its potency.

Methods: Data from 22,708 veterans (N=8,083 VTC participants, 680 participants in other TCs [other-TC participants], and 13,945 participants in neither VTCs nor TCs [non-TC participants]) in the Veterans Justice Outreach (VJO) program were analyzed by using multilevel regression models. Results: VTC participants were more likely than other VJO participants to have served in Iraq or Afghanistan, but there were no sociodemographic disparities in access to VTCs. VTC participants were more likely than non-TC participants to have drug or public-order offenses, and they were more likely than other-TC participants to have DUI offenses. VTC participants had better independent housing outcomes than other VJO participants, and they had better employment outcomes than non-TC participants. However, VTC and other-TC participants were also more likely to have jail sanctions and new incarcerations compared with non-TC participants. Conclusions: VTCs are a growing service model that serves a broad group of veterans with a range of criminal offenses. Although VTCs show moderate benefits in housing and employment, specialized services are needed to reduce recidivism and maximize these benefits.

TI Counseling Veterans Applying for Service Connection Status for Mental Health Conditions SO PSYCHIATRIC SERVICES LA English DT Article ID POSTTRAUMATIC-STRESS-DISORDER; DISABILITY; STIGMA; PTSD; CARE; COMPENSATION; ATTITUDES; CLINICIAN AB Veterans with mental health conditions that were either caused or aggravated by their military service are eligible to receive service-connected disability benefits from the Department of Veterans Affairs. The process of applying for service connection status is complex, and it is not surprising that veterans frequently develop beliefs about service connection that may not be accurate and that could interfere with treatment. The authors describe some of these beliefs and offer suggestions to clinicians for addressing them. Veterans may believe that their clinician is directly involved in service connection determination or that therapy notes will determine the outcome of the claim. Veterans may not understand the basis for award of service connection and may interpret rejection of their claim as reflecting disrespect for their service or degree of distress. The authors argue that discussing these beliefs with veterans might enhance therapy by demonstrating familiarity with an important aspect of veterans' experience and by helping veterans address a significant and distressing issue.

Clinical and policy-level strategies to improve the coordination of addiction care and general medical care include identifying and engaging patients with unhealthy substance use in general medical settings, providing effective chronic disease management of substance use disorders in primary care, including patient and family perspectives in care coordination, and implementing pragmatic models to pay for the coordination of addiction and general medical care. This Open Forum discusses practice and research recommendations to advance the coordination of general medical and addiction care. The discussion is based on the proceedings of a national meeting of experts in 2014. C1 [Quinn, Amity E.] Brandeis Univ, Heller Sch Social Policy & Management, Inst Behav Hlth, Waltham, MA 02453 USA.

Early disease presents as limited skin patches or plaques and exhibits an indolent behavior. For many patients, the disease never progresses beyond this stage, but in approximately one third of patients, the disease becomes progressive, and the skin lesions start to expand and evolve. Eventually, overt tumors develop and the malignant T cells may disseminate to the blood, lymph nodes, bone marrow, and visceral organs, often with a fatal outcome. The transition from early indolent to progressive and advanced disease is accompanied by a significant shift in the nature of the tumor-associated inflammation. This shift does not appear to be an epiphenomenon but rather a critical step in disease progression. Emerging evidence supports that the malignant T cells take control of the inflammatory environment, suppressing cellular immunity and anti-tumor responses while promoting a chronic inflammatory milieu that fuels their own expansion. Here, we review the inflammatory changes associated with disease progression in CTCL and point to their wider relevance in other cancer contexts. We further define the term "malignant inflammation" as a pro-tumorigenic inflammatory environment orchestrated by the tumor cells and discuss some of the mechanisms driving the development of malignant inflammation in CTCL.

Our low ADR prompted us to assess novel methods to improve performance. Western retrospective reports suggested that water exchange (WE) could increase ADR. However, most of these studies used pain score or intubation rate as the primary outcome. Here we test the hypothesis that WE significantly increases ADR among Chinese colonoscopists and design a prospective randomized controlled trial using ADR as our primary outcome. METHODS: This prospective, randomized controlled trial was performed at six centers in China. Screening, surveillance, and diagnostic cases were randomized to be examined by WE or traditional air insufflation (AI) method. The primary outcome was ADR. RESULTS: From April 2014 to July 2015, 3,303 patients were randomized to WE (n = 1,653) and AI (n = 1,650). The baseline characteristics were comparable. Overall ADR was 18.3% (WE) and 13.4% (AI) (relative risk 1.45, 95% confidential interval: 1.20-1.75, P < 0.001). ADR in screening patients using AI was 25.8% (male) and 15.7% (female). ADR in screening patients aged > 50 years old was 29.4% (WE) and 22.9% (AI) (relative risk 1.09, 95% confidential interval: 1.00-1.19, P = 0.040). The increase by WE was reproducibly observed in all indication categories, and significant in screening and diagnostic cases. The limitation imposed by the unblinded investigators was mitigated by comparable inspection times in cases without polyps, similar adenoma per positive colonoscopy, and reproducible enhancement of ADR and adenoma per colonoscopy by WE across all eight investigators. CONCLUSIONS: This prospective study confirms Western retrospective data that WE significantly improves ADR among Chinese colonoscopists. WE may be superior to AI for screening colonoscopy in China. Colonoscopists elsewhere with low ADR might consider evaluating WE for performance improvement.

TI Skin biopsy utilization and melanoma incidence among Medicare beneficiaries SO BRITISH JOURNAL OF DERMATOLOGY LA English DT Article ID UNITED-STATES; CANCER; OVERDIAGNOSIS; POPULATION AB Background Melanoma incidence has increased in recent decades in the U.S.A. Uncertainty remains regarding how much of this increase is attributable to greater melanoma screening activities, potential detection bias and overdiagnosis. Objectives To use a cross-sectional ecological analysis to evaluate the relationship between skin biopsy and melanoma incidence rates over a more recent time period than prior reports. Methods Examination of the association of biopsy rates and melanoma incidence (invasive and in situ) in SEER-Medicare data (including 10 states) for 2002-2009. Results The skin biopsy rate increased by approximately 50% (6% per year) throughout this 8-year period, from 7012 biopsies per 100 000 persons in 2002 to 10 528 biopsies per 100 000 persons in 2009. The overall melanoma incidence rate increased approximately 4% (< 1% per year) over the same time period. The incidence of melanoma in situ increased approximately 10% (1% per year), while the incidence of invasive melanoma increased from 2002 to 2005 then decreased from 2006 to 2009. Regression models estimated that, on average, for every 1000 skin biopsies performed, an additional 5.2 (95% confidence interval 4.1-6.3) cases of melanoma in situ were diagnosed and 8.1 (95% confidence interval 6.7-9.5) cases of invasive melanoma were diagnosed. When considering individual states, some demonstrated a positive association between biopsy rate and invasive melanoma incidence, others an inverse association, and still others a more complex pattern. Conclusions Increased skin biopsies over time are associated with increased diagnosis of in situ melanoma, but the association with invasive melanoma is more complex. C1 [Weinstock, M.

We investigated the effect of dasatinib on the barrier function of human microvascular endothelial cells-1 (HMEC-1) in vitro and in vivo. The permeability of HMEC-1 to fluorescein isothiocyante (FITC)-dextran increased in Transwell chambers within 5min following the addition of therapeutic concentrations of dasatinib. The change in permeability was associated with increased activation of RhoA GTPase and its effector Rho-associated coiled-coil kinase 1(ROCK1). RhoA inhibitor C3 transferase almost completely inhibited dasatinib-induced increase in permeability. Under similar conditions, imatinib had no effect on permeability or activation of RhoA. Since integrin-induced cell spreading suppresses RhoA activation, we examined the effect of dasatinib on cell spreading on fibronectin substrate. Dasatinib impaired endothelial cell spreading in a concentration-dependent manner and induced disorganization of actin fibers. Tyrosine kinases play an essential role in transmitting signals from integrins to RhoA and we examined tyrosine phosphorylation of several cytoskeletal proteins. Dasatinib markedly inhibited tyrosine phosphorylation of p130 Crk-associated substrate (p130cas), paxillin and vinculin. These results suggest that the inhibition of tyrosine phosphorylation of the focal adhesion plaque components by dasatinib may alter the assembly of actin fibers resulting in the activation of RhoA/ROCK pathway. Consistent with these findings, dasatinib-induced increase in the permeability was blocked by ROCK inhibitor y27632. In vivo administration of y27632, significantly inhibited the dasatinib-induced extravasation of Evans blue in mice and dasatinib-induced increase in microvascular permeability was attenuated in ROCK1-deficient mice. These findings suggest that ROCK inhibitors could serve as therapeutic modalities to ameliorate the dasatinib-induced pulmonary changes.

TI Cross-Disciplinary Analysis of Lymph Node Classification in Lung Cancer on CT Scanning SO CHEST LA English DT Article DE lung cancer; lymph nodes; staging ID INTERNATIONAL ASSOCIATION AB BACKGROUND: Accurate and consistent regional lymph node classification is an important element in the staging and multidisciplinary management of lung cancer. Regional lymph node definition sets-lymph node maps-have been created to standardize regional lymph node classification. In 2009, the International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer (IASLC) introduced a lymph node map to supersede all preexisting lymph node maps. Our aim was to study if and how lung cancer specialists apply the IASLC lymph node map when classifying thoracic lymph nodes encountered on CT scans during lung cancer staging. METHODS: From April 2013 through July 2013, invitations were distributed to all members of the Fleischner Society, Society of Thoracic Radiology, General Thoracic Surgical Club, and the American Association of Bronchology and Interventional Pulmonology to participate in an anonymous online image-based and text-based 20-question survey regarding lymph node classification for lung cancer staging on CT imaging. RESULTS: Three hundred thirty-seven people responded (approximately 25% participation). Respondents consisted of self-reported thoracic radiologists (n = 158), thoracic surgeons (n = 102), and pulmonologists who perform endobronchial ultrasonography (n = 77). Half of the respondents (50%; 95% CI, 44%-55%) reported using the IASLC lymph node map in daily practice, with no significant differences between subspecialties. A disparity was observed between the IASLC definition sets and their interpretation and application on CT scans, in particular for lymph nodes near the thoracic inlet, anterior to the trachea, anterior to the tracheal bifurcation, near the ligamentum arteriosum, between the bronchus intermedius and esophagus, in the internal mammary space, and adjacent to the heart. CONCLUSIONS: Use of older lymph node maps and inconsistencies in interpretation and application of definitions in the IASLC lymph node map may potentially lead to misclassification of stage and suboptimal management of lung cancer in some patients.

TI Sex differences in early dyspnea relief between men and women hospitalized for acute heart failure: insights from the RELAX-AHF study SO CLINICAL RESEARCH IN CARDIOLOGY LA English DT Article DE Serelaxin; Acute heart failure; Sex; Gender; Dyspnea ID RENAL IMPAIRMENT; OUTCOMES; SERELAXIN; ASSOCIATION; PROTECT; GENDER; DETERMINANTS; REGISTRY AB Women with heart failure are typically older, and more often have hypertension and a preserved left ventricular ejection fraction as compared with men. We sought to analyze if these sex differences influence the course and outcome of acute heart failure. We analyzed sex differences in acute heart failure in 1161 patients enrolled in the RELAX-AHF study. The pre-specified study endpoints were used. At baseline, women (436/1161 patients) were older, had a higher left ventricular ejection fraction, a higher rate of hypertension, and were treated differently from men. Early dyspnea improvement (moderate or marked dyspnea improvement measured by Likert scale during the first 24 h) was greater in women. However, dyspnea improvement over the first 5 days (change from baseline in the visual analog scale area under the curve (VAS AUC) to day 5) was similar between men and women. Women reported greater improvements in general wellbeing by Likert, but no such benefits were evident with the VAS score. Multi-variable predictors of moderate or marked dyspnea improvement were female sex (p = 0.0011), lower age (p = 0.0026) and lower diuretic dose (p = 0.0067). The additional efficacy endpoints of RELAX-AHF were similar between men and women and serelaxin was equally effective in men and women. Women exhibit better earlier dyspnea relief and improvement in general wellbeing compared with men, even adjusted for age and left ventricular ejection fraction. However, in-hospital and post-discharge clinical outcomes were similar between men and women. This trial is registered at ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT00520806.

The present study examined whether the social regulation of emotion (in the form of handholding) altered the strength of emotional long-term memory. A sample of 219 undergraduate students viewed sets of negative, neutral, and positive images. Each participant held a stress ball while viewing half of the images and held someone's hand while viewing the other half. Participants returned 1 week later to complete a recognition task. Performance on the recognition task demonstrated that participants had lower memory accuracy for negative but not for positive pictures that were shown while they were holding someone's hand compared with when they were holding a stress ball. Although handholding altered the strength of negative emotional long-term memory, it did not down-regulate negative affective response as measured by self-report or facial expressivity. The present findings provide evidence that the social regulation of emotion can help weaken memory for negative information. Given the role of strong negative memories in different forms of psychopathology (e.g., depression, posttraumatic stress disorder), these findings may help better understand how close relationships protect against psychopathology.

SO INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF GERIATRIC PSYCHIATRY LA English DT Review DE dementia; cognitive impairment; multiple chronic conditions; systematic literature review; public health; aging ID NURSING-HOME RESIDENTS; COMMUNITY-BASED COHORT; AFRICAN-AMERICAN PATIENTS; CONGESTIVE-HEART-FAILURE; COGNITIVE IMPAIRMENT; ALZHEIMERS-DISEASE; OLDER-ADULTS; PARKINSONS-DISEASE; VASCULAR DEMENTIA; INCIDENT DEMENTIA AB ObjectiveThe challenges posed by people living with multiple chronic conditions are unique for people with dementia and other significant cognitive impairment. There have been recent calls to action to review the existing literature on co-occurring chronic conditions and dementia in order to better understand the effect of cognitive impairment on disease management, mobility, and mortality. MethodsThis systematic literature review searched PubMed databases through 2011 (updated in 2016) using key constructs of older adults, moderate-to-severe cognitive impairment (both diagnosed and undiagnosed dementia), and chronic conditions. Reviewers assessed papers for eligibility and extracted key data from each included manuscript. An independent expert panel rated the strength and quality of evidence and prioritized gaps for future study. ResultsFour thousand thirty-three articles were identified, of which 147 met criteria for review. We found that moderate-to-severe cognitive impairment increased risks of mortality, was associated with prolonged institutional stays, and decreased function in persons with multiple chronic conditions. There was no relationship between significant cognitive impairment and use of cardiovascular or hypertensive medications for persons with these comorbidities. Prioritized areas for future research include hospitalizations, disease-specific outcomes, diabetes, chronic pain, cardiovascular disease, depression, falls, stroke, and multiple chronic conditions. ConclusionsThis review summarizes that living with significant cognitive impairment or dementia negatively impacts mortality, institutionalization, and functional outcomes for people living with multiple chronic conditions. Our findings suggest that chronic-disease management interventions will need to address co-occurring cognitive impairment. Copyright (c) 2017 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

These findings suggest that A may be one of the mechanisms underlying the relation between the two conditions. We sought to determine the relation between elevated cerebral A and the presence of depression across a 54-month prospective observation period. MethodsCognitively normal older adults from the Australian Imaging Biomarkers and Lifestyle study who were not depressed and had undergone a positron emission tomography scan to classify them as either high A (n=81) or low A (n=278) participated. Depressive symptoms were assessed using the Geriatric Depression Scale Short Form at 18-month intervals over 54months. ResultsWhilst there was no difference in probable depression between groups at baseline, incidence was 4.5 (95% confidence interval [CI] 1.3-16.4) times greater within the high A group (9%) than the low A group (2%) by the 54-month assessment. ConclusionsResults of this study suggest that elevated A levels are associated with a 4.5-fold increased likelihood of developing clinically significant depressive symptoms on follow-up in preclinical Alzheimer's disease. This underscores the importance of assessing, monitoring and treating depressive symptoms in older adults with elevated A. Copyright (c) 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

It can be assessed using hypothetical tasks, which involve choices between hypothetical rewards of varying amounts over delay periods of days to years, or experiential tasks, which involve receiving actual rewards in real time over delay periods of seconds to minutes. Initial studies in schizophrenia have only used hypothetical tasks and have been mixed in finding either elevated or normal levels of DD. One hundred thirty-one outpatients with schizophrenia and 70 healthy controls completed hypothetical and experiential DD tasks involving monetary rewards, and the schizophrenia group was retested after 4 weeks. Although both groups showed qualitatively similar hyperbolic discounting functions on both tasks, they showed a quantitative DD difference. The schizophrenia showed higher DD than controls on the experiential task but normal DD on the hypothetical task. This pattern was not attributable to a range of potential confounds, including smoking status, substance use disorder status, or neurocognition. It was also not attributable to differences in the test-retest reliability, which was good for both tasks. The schizophrenia group's robust pattern of altered experiential but normal hypothetical task performance points to key factors that may contribute to impaired DD in this disorder. These may include increased valuation of small (but not large) monetary rewards, or a hypersensitivity to costs associated with waiting inactively for those rewards.

Although living in areas of lower NSES has been associated with higher mortality, previous studies have been limited to higher-income, less diverse populations than those who receive VHA care. To describe the association between NSES and all-cause mortality in a national sample of veterans enrolled in VHA primary care. One-year observational cohort of veterans who were alive on December 31, 2011. Data on individual veterans (vital status, and clinical and demographic characteristics) were abstracted from the VHA Corporate Data Warehouse. Census tract information was obtained from the US Census Bureau American Community Survey. Logistic regression was used to model the association between NSES deciles and all-cause mortality during 2012, adjusting for individual-level income and demographics, and accounting for spatial autocorrelation. Veterans who had vital status, demographic, and NSES data, and who were both assigned a primary care physician and alive on December 31, 2011 (n = 4,814,631). Census tracts were used as proxies for neighborhoods. A summary score based on census tract data characterized NSES. Veteran addresses were geocoded and linked to census tract NSES scores. Census tracts were divided into NSES deciles. In adjusted analysis, veterans living in the lowest-decile NSES tract were 10 % (OR 1.10, 95 % CI 1.07, 1.14) more likely to die than those living in the highest-decile NSES tract. Lower neighborhood SES is associated with all-cause mortality among veterans after adjusting for individual-level socioeconomic characteristics. NSES should be considered in risk adjustment models for veteran mortality, and may need to be incorporated into strategies aimed at improving veteran health.

CA PROSPR Population-Based Res TI Primary Care Providers' Beliefs and Recommendations and Use of Screening Mammography by their Patients SO JOURNAL OF GENERAL INTERNAL MEDICINE LA English DT Article DE mammography; variation in care; provider beliefs ID SERVICES TASK-FORCE; BREAST-CANCER; PREVENTIVE CARE; WOMEN; ATTITUDES; GUIDELINES; UPDATE; TRENDS; OLDER AB Revised breast cancer screening guidelines have fueled debate about the effectiveness and frequency of screening mammography, encouraging discussion between women and their providers. To examine whether primary care providers' (PCPs') beliefs about the effectiveness and frequency of screening mammography are associated with utilization by their patients. Cross-sectional survey data from PCPs (2014) from three primary care networks affiliated with the Population-based Research Optimizing Screening through Personalized Regimens (PROSPR) consortium, linked with data about their patients' mammography use (2011-2014). PCPs (n = 209) and their female patients age 40-89 years without breast cancer (n = 30,233). Outcomes included whether (1) women received a screening mammogram during a 2-year period; and (2) screened women had > 1 mammogram during that period, reflecting annual screening. Principal independent variables were PCP beliefs about the effectiveness of mammography and their recommendations for screening frequency. Overall 65.2% of women received > 1 screening mammogram. For women 40-48 years, mammography use was modestly lower for those cared for by PCPs who believed that screening was ineffective compared with those who believed it was somewhat or very effective (59.1%, 62.3%, and 64.7%; p = 0.019 after controlling for patient characteristics). Of women with PCPs who reported they did not recommend screening before age 50, 48.1% were nonetheless screened. For women age 49-74 years, the vast majority were cared for by providers who believed that screening was effective. Provider recommendations were not associated with screening frequency. For women >= 75 years, those cared for by providers who were uncertain about effectiveness had higher screening use (50.7%) than those cared for by providers who believed it was somewhat effective (42.8%). Patients of providers who did not recommend screening were less likely to be screened than were those whose providers recommended annual screening, yet 37.1% of patients whose providers recommended against screening still received screening. PCP beliefs about mammography effectiveness and screening recommendations are only modestly associated with use, suggesting other likely influences on patient participation in mammography.

TI Xenin Augments Duodenal Anion Secretion via Activation of Afferent Neural Pathways SO JOURNAL OF PHARMACOLOGY AND EXPERIMENTAL THERAPEUTICS LA English DT Article ID RAT GASTROINTESTINAL-TRACT; BICARBONATE SECRETION; NEUROTENSIN RECEPTOR; 5-HT3 RECEPTORS; NONPEPTIDE ANTAGONIST; ENTEROENDOCRINE CELLS; DEFENSE-MECHANISMS; CL-SECRETION; DISTAL COLON; IN-VITRO AB Xenin-25, a neurotensin (NT)-related anorexigenic gut hormone generated mostly in the duodenal mucosa, is believed to increase the rate of duodenal ion secretion, because xenin-induced diarrhea is not present after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass surgery. Because the local effects of xenin on duodenal ion secretion have remained uninvestigated, we thus examined the neural pathways underlying xenin-induced duodenal anion secretion. Intravenous infusion of xenin-8, a bioactive C-terminal fragment of xenin-25, dose dependently increased the rate of duodenal HCO (3) (-) secretion in perfused duodenal loops of anesthetized rats. Xenin was immunolocalized to a subset of enteroendocrine cells in the rat duodenum. The mRNA of the xenin/NT receptor 1 (NTS1) was predominantly expressed in the enteric plexus, nodose and dorsal root ganglia, and in the lamina propria rather than in the epithelium. The serosal application of xenin-8 or xenin-25 rapidly and transiently increased short-circuit current in Ussing-chambered mucosa-submucosa preparations in a concentration-dependent manner in the duodenum and jejunum, but less so in the ileum and colon. The selective antagonist for NTS1, substance P (SP) receptor (NK1), or 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) (3), but not NTS2, inhibited the responses to xenin. Xenin-evoked Cl-secretion was reduced by tetrodotoxin (TTX) or capsaicin-pretreatment, and abolished by the inhibitor of TTX-resistant sodiumchannel Nav1.8 in combination with TTX, suggesting that peripheral xenin augments duodenal HCO3- and Cl- secretion through NTS1 activation on intrinsic and extrinsic afferent nerves, followed by release of SP and 5-HT. Afferent nerve activation by postprandial, peripherally released xeninmay account for its secretory effects in the duodenum.

TI Individual Differences in the Relative Reinforcing Effects of 3,4-Methylenedioxypyrovalerone under Fixed and Progressive Ratio Schedules of Reinforcement in Rats SO JOURNAL OF PHARMACOLOGY AND EXPERIMENTAL THERAPEUTICS LA English DT Article ID SALT CONSTITUENT 3,4-METHYLENEDIOXYPYROVALERONE; MICE DRUG DISCRIMINATION; BATH SALTS; LOCOMOTOR-ACTIVITY; SYNTHETIC CATHINONES; WHEEL ACTIVITY; UNITED-STATES; LEGAL HIGHS; MDPV; COCAINE AB The recreational use of designer drugs, including synthetic cathinones (bath salts), is associated with high levels of abuse and toxicity, and represents a growing threat to public health. 3,4-Methylenedioxypyrovalerone (MDPV) is a cocaine-like monoamine uptake inhibitor, and one of the most widely available and abused synthetic cathinones. The present study used male Sprague-Dawley rats to directly compare: (1) the acquisition of responding for MDPV and cocaine under a fixed ratio (FR) 1 schedule of reinforcement; (2) full dose-response curves for MDPV and cocaine under a FR5 schedule; and (3) progressive ratio (PR) schedules of reinforcement. Selfadministration of MDPV and cocaine was acquired at comparable rates, and by a similar percentage of rats. Compared with cocaine, MDPV was similar to 10-fold more potent and similar to 3-fold more effective at maintaining responding (PR; final ratio completed). Unlike cocaine, for which little variability was observed among rats, the FR5 dose-response curve for MDPV was shifted similar to 3-fold upward for a subset of rats (high-responders) relative to other rats with identical histories (low-responders). Compared with low-responding rats, high responders also self-administered more cocaine under the FR5 schedule, and earned significantly more MDPV, cocaine, and methamphetamine under a PR schedule of reinforcement. In addition to functioning as a significantly more effective reinforcer than either cocaine or methamphetamine, MDPV also appears to be unique in its capacity to establish an enduring phenotype in rats, characterized by unusually high levels of drug intake. Although the factors underlying this high-responder phenotype are unclear, they might be related to individual differences in human drug-taking behavior.

TI Evaluation and Management of the Patient With Suspected Inflammatory Spine Disease SO MAYO CLINIC PROCEEDINGS LA English DT Article ID NONRADIOGRAPHIC AXIAL SPONDYLOARTHRITIS; CHRONIC BACK-PAIN; ANKYLOSING-SPONDYLITIS; PRIMARY-CARE; REFERRAL RECOMMENDATIONS; DIAGNOSTIC-CRITERIA; PREVALENCE; UVEITIS; DELAY; CLASSIFICATION AB Axial spondyloarthritis (AxSpA) is a chronic inflammatory rheumatic disease characterized by inflammatory back pain (IBP) that manifests in childhood, late adolescence, or early adulthood. Ankylosing spondylitis (AS) and nonradiographic AxSpA represent 2 ends of the AxSpA spectrum. Diagnosis can be challenging because patients develop IBP that may not be associated with radiographic changes in the sacroiliac joints. Patients early in the course of disease are estimated to have at least the same level of disease activity and pain as patients with established disease; thus, they could benefit substantially from earlier diagnosis. Although the recent use of magnetic resonance imaging and its inclusion in diagnostic criteria has enhanced the identification of early AxSpA, improvement in early diagnosis has not been consistently reported across all studies. Limited knowledge of the continuum of AxSpA disease manifestations and lack of recognition of IBP in primary practice may contribute to this. Implementing a referral strategy that identifies patients with IBP for additional testing and assessment may lead to better recognition of early signs and symptoms of AxSpA, thereby offering the potential for improved patient outcomes. This review presents an overview of the epidemiology, clinical characteristics, and burdens of AxSpA, followed by a case presentation outlining approaches to the evaluation and management of a patient with suspected inflammatory spine disease.

Sean TI Cost analysis of a prospective multi-site cohort study of palliative care consultation teams for adults with advanced cancer: Where do cost-savings come from? SO PALLIATIVE MEDICINE LA English DT Article DE Palliative care; economics; cancer; hospital costs; length of stay ID LENGTH-OF-STAY; ECONOMIC-IMPACT; GUIDANCE; LARGER AB Background: Studies report cost-savings from hospital-based palliative care consultation teams compared to usual care only, but drivers of observed differences are unclear. Aim: To analyse cost-differences associated with palliative care consultation teams using two research questions: (Q1) What is the association between early palliative care consultation team intervention, and intensity of services and length of stay, compared to usual care only? (Q2) What is the association between early palliative care consultation team intervention and day-to-day hospital costs, compared to a later intervention? Design: Prospective multi-site cohort study (2007-2011). Patients who received a consultation were placed in the intervention group, those who did not in the comparison group. Intervention group was stratified by timing, and groups were matched using propensity scores. Setting/participants: Adults admitted to three US hospitals with advanced cancer. Principle analytic sample contains 863 patients (n(UC) = 637; n(PC EARLY) = 177; n(PC LATE)=49) discharged alive. Results: Cost-savings from early palliative care accrue due to both reduced length of stay and reduced intensity of treatment, with an estimated 63% of savings associated with shorter length of stay. A reduction in day-to-day costs is observable in the days immediately following initial consult but does not persist indefinitely. A comparison of early and late palliative care consultation team cost-effects shows negligible difference once the intervention is administered. Conclusion: Reduced length of stay is the biggest driver of cost-saving from early consultation for patients with advanced cancer. Patient- and family-centred discussions on goals of care and transition planning initiated by palliative care consultation teams may be at least as important in driving cost-savings as the reduction of unnecessary tests and pharmaceuticals identified by previous studies.

However, data on the specific knowledge, skills, and attitudes gained from these experiences are limited. In this study we used qualitative analysis of written narratives to explore the response of residents to a juvenile justice experience. METHODS: Pediatric residents participated in a week-long experience in the juvenile probation department and completed a written narrative. Narratives were analyzed using grounded theory to explore the effects of this experience on residents' views of youth in the juvenile justice system. RESULTS: Analysis of 29 narratives revealed 13 themes relating to 5 core concepts: social determinants of behavior, role of professionals and institutions, achieving future potential, resolving discrepancies, and distancing. A conceptual model was developed to explore the interactions of these concepts in the resident view of youth in the juvenile justice system. Of the themes only 3 (23%) were related to content explicitly covered in the assigned reading materials. CONCLUSIONS: Several important concepts emerged as elements of this experience, many of which were not covered in the explicit curriculum. Variability in attitudinal response to the experience raised important questions about the influence of the ideological framework of the learner and the hidden curriculum on the learning that occurs in community settings. We propose a theoretical model that delineates the factors that influence learning in community settings to guide educators in planning these types of experiences.

We investigated the use of a newer ECT technology known to have fewer cognitive side effects (right unilateral [RUL] ultra-brief pulse [UBP]) for the treatment of medically refractory psychiatric dysfunction in PD. Materials and methods: This open-label pilot study included 6 patients who were assessed in the motoric, cognitive, and neuropsychiatric domains prior to and after RUL UBP ECT. Primary endpoints were changes in total score on the HAM-D-17 and GDS-30 rating scales. Results: Patients were found to improve in motoric and psychiatric domains following RUL UBP ECT without cognitive side effects, both immediately following ECT and at 1-month follow- up. Conclusions: This study demonstrates that RUL UBP ECT is safe, feasible, and potentially efficacious in treating multiple domains of PD, including motor and mood, without clear cognitive side effects.

Explore whether cocaine use at treatment initiation interacts with the type of continuing care intervention to affect HIV sex-risk. Cocaine dependent participants (N = 321) were randomized to: (1) Treatment as usual (TAU): intensive outpatient treatment, (2) TAU and telephone monitoring and counseling (TMC), and (3) TAU and TMC plus incentives for participation in telephone contacts (TMC+). Participants in TMC and TMC+ received a brief HIV intervention, with booster sessions as needed. Generalized estimating equations analysis compared TAU, TMC and TMC+ at 6, 12, 18, 24 months post-baseline on the following outcomes: overall HIV sex-risk, number of sexual partners, condom usage, exchange of drugs for sex, exchange of sex for drugs, exchange of money for sex, exchange of sex for money, and crack house visits. Overall sex-risk decreased for all treatment conditions at follow-up, with no treatment main effects. For people with no cocaine use at baseline, TAU experienced greater sex-risk reductions than TMC (p < .01) and TMC+ (p < .001). The three treatment conditions are effective in reducing HIV sex-risk. TMC with HIV risk-reduction components is unnecessary for cocaine-dependent clients who stop using cocaine early in treatment.

A systematic literature search using PubMed MESH terms for alcohol and substance use disorders, PTSD, and treatment identified relevant behavioral randomized clinical trials (RCTs) that evaluated PTSD-oriented exposure-based treatments, addiction-focused treatments, and coping-based treatments that do not involve exposure to trauma memories. Information pertaining to within-subject changes over time and between-subject differences, quality of control condition, recruitment efficiency, and assessment and treatment retention was synthesized. Alcohol and drug outcomes were described separately when possible. Twenty-four behavioral RCTs were identified: 7 exposure based, 6 addiction focused, and 11 coping based. Seven studies included SUD intervention comparison conditions matched to the target intervention on time and attention. Most of the 24 studies found that participants in both the experimental and control conditions improved significantly over time on SUD and PTSD outcomes. No study found significant between-group differences in both SUD and PTSD outcomes favoring the experimental treatment. Despite greater treatment dropout, there was greater improvement in some PTSD outcomes for exposure-based interventions than the control conditions, including when the control conditions were matched for time and attention. Addiction-focused and coping-based interventions did not generally show an advantage over comparably robust controls, although some coping-based interventions yielded better drug use outcomes than control conditions. When available, interventions that integrate exposure-based PTSD treatment and behavioral SUD treatment are recommended as they are associated with better PTSD outcomes than SUD care matched for time and attention. However, the results of this critical review also suggest that people with SUD/PTSD can benefit from a variety of treatment options, including standard SUD care.

TI Methylprednisolone Therapy in Acute Traumatic Spinal Cord Injury: Analysis of a Regional Spinal Cord Model Systems Database SO ANESTHESIA AND ANALGESIA LA English DT Article ID CONTROLLED-TRIAL; STEROIDS; EPIDEMIOLOGY AB BACKGROUND: The objective of this study was to assess the relationship between exposure to methylprednisolone (MO) and improvements in motor function among patients with acute traumatic spinal cord injury (TSCI). MP therapy for patients with TSCI is controversial because of the current conflicting evidence documenting its benefits and risks. METHODS: We conducted a retrospective cohort study from September 2007 to November 2014 of 311 patients with acute TSCI who were enrolled into a model systems database of a regional, level I trauma center. We linked outcomes and covariate data from the model systems database with MP exposure data from the electronic medical record. The primary outcomes were rehabilitation discharge in American Spinal Injury Association (ASIA) motor scores (sum of 10 key muscles bilaterally as per International Standards for Neurological Classification of Spinal Cord Injury, range, 0-100) and Functional Independence Measure (FIM) motor scores (range, 13-91). Secondary outcomes measured infection risk and gastrointestinal (GI) complications among MP recipients. For the primary outcomes, multivariable linear regression was used. RESULTS: There were 160 MP recipients and 151 nonrecipients. Adjusting for age, sex, weight, race, respective baseline motor score, surgical intervention, injury level, ASIA Impairment Scale (AIS) grade, education, and insurance status, there was no association with improvement in discharge ASIA motor function or FIM motor score among MP recipients: -0.34 (95% CI, -2.8, 2.1) and 0.75 (95% CI, -2.8, 4.3), respectively. Adjusting for age, sex, race, weight, injury level, and receipt of surgery, no association with increased risk of infection or GI complications was observed. CONCLUSIONS: This retrospective cohort study involving patients with acute TSCI observed no short-term improvements in motor function among MP recipients compared with nonrecipients. Our findings support current recommendations that MP use in this population should be limited.

Design, settings, participants, & measurements We built a longitudinal observational cohort of 1,594,700 United States veterans with at least one eGFR during fiscal year 2004 (date of last eGFR during this period designated time zero) and no prior history of ESRD, dialysis, or kidney transplant. Cohort participants were followed until September 30, 2013 or death. Monocyte count closest to and before time zero was categorized in quartiles: quartile 1, >0.00 to <= 0.40 thousand cells per cubic millimeter (k/cmm); quartile 2, >0.40 to <= 0.55 k/cmm; quartile 3, >0.55 to <= 0.70 k/cmm; and quartile 4, >0.70 k/cmm. Survival models were built to examine the association between monocyte count and risk of incident eGFR<60 ml/min per 1.73 m(2), risk of incident CKD, and risk of CKD progression defined as doubling of serum creatinine, eGFR decline or the composite outcome of ESRD, dialysis, or renal transplantation. Results Over a median follow-up of 9.2 years (interquartile range, 8.3-9.4); in adjusted survival models, there was a graded association between monocyte counts and risk of renal outcomes. Compared with quartile 1, quartile 4 was associated with higher risk of incident eGFR<60 ml/min per 1.73 m(2) (hazard ratio, 1.13; 95% confidence interval, 1.12 to 1.14) and risk of incident CKD (hazard ratio, 1.15; 95% confidence interval, 1.13 to 1.16). Quartile 4 was associated with higher risk of doubling of serum creatinine (hazard ratio, 1.22; 95% confidence interval, 1.20 to 1.24), >= 30% eGFR decline (hazard ratio, 1.18; 95% confidence interval, 1.17 to 1.19), and the composite renal end point (hazard ratio, 1.19; 95% confidence interval, 1.16 to 1.22). Cubic spline analyses of the relationship between monocyte count levels and renal outcomes showed a linear relationship, in which risk was higher with higher monocyte count. Results were robust to changes in sensitivity analyses. Conclusions Our results show a significant association between higher monocyte count and risks of incident CKD and CKD progression to ESRD.

Design: Cross-over, feasibility trial Setting: VA Geriatric Research Education and Clinical Center and Veterans Homes Participants: 32 Veterans with dysvascular LLA (1-5 years after major LLA) Intervention: The home-based study, using telerehabilitation technology, is intended to reduce participant burden by removing transportation and time bafflers. Participants will be randomized into two participation periods of three months (Months 1-3 and 4-6). PABC intervention will occur Months 1-3 for GROUP1 and Months 4-6 for GROUP2. During PABC Intervention, participants engage in weekly video interaction with a physical therapist, who uses a collaborative approach to develop self-monitoring, barrier identification, problem solving and action planning skills to improve physical activity. GROUP2 will participate in a no physical activity intervention, attention control in Months 1-3. GROUP1 will have a no contact, intervention "wash-out" period in Months 4-6. Main outcome measures: Feasibility will be determined using measures of 1) participant retention, 2) dose goal attainment, 3) participant acceptability, 4) safety, and 5) initial effect size. Effect size will be based on accelerometer-based physical activity and self-report disability using the Late-Life Function and Disability Index. Conclusions: This study focuses on a prevalent and understudied population with low physical activity and high levels of disability due to dysvascular LLA. The results of this study will guide future development of targeted rehabilitation research to improve long term physical activity and disability outcomes. Published by Elsevier Inc.

Specifically, of importance for clinicians and researchers managing patients with epilepsies, new methods of brain imaging in search of the seizure-producing abnormalities have been implemented, and older methods have undergone additional refinement. Methodology to predict seizure freedom and cognitive outcome has also rapidly progressed. In general, the image data processing methods are very different and more complicated than even a decade ago. In this review, we identify the recent developments in neuroimaging that are aimed at improved management of epilepsy patients. Advances in structural imaging, diffusion imaging, fMRI, structural and functional connectivity, hybrid imaging methods, quantitative neuroimaging, and machine-learning are discussed. We also briefly summarize the potential new developments that may shape the field of neuroimaging in the near future and may advance not only our understanding of epileptic networks as the source of treatment-resistant seizures but also better define the areas that need to be treated in order to provide the patients with better long-term outcomes.

Like dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4), neprilysin can degrade and inactivate the insulinotropic peptide glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1). Thus, we investigated whether neprilysin deficiency enhances active GLP-1 levels and improves glycaemia in a mouse model of high fat feeding. Methods Nep(+/+) and Nep(-/-) mice were fed a 60% fat diet for 16 weeks, after which active GLP-1 and DPP-4 activity levels were measured, as were glucose, insulin and C-peptide levels during an OGTT. Insulin sensitivity was assessed using an insulin tolerance test. Results High-fat-fed Nep-/-mice exhibited elevated active GLP-1 levels (5.8 +/- 1.1 vs 3.5 +/- 0.8 pmol/l, p<0.05) in association with improved glucose tolerance, insulin sensitivity and beta cell function compared with high-fat-fed Nep+/+ mice. In addition, plasma DPP-4 activity was lower in high-fat-fed Nep-/-mice (7.4 +/- 1.0 vs 10.7 +/- 1.3 nmol ml(-1) min(-1), p<0.05). No difference in insulin: C-peptide ratio was observed between Nep(-/-) and Nep+/+ mice, suggesting that improved glycaemia does not result from changes in insulin clearance. Conclusions/interpretation Under conditions of increased dietary fat, an improved glycaemic status in neprilysin-deficient mice is associated with elevated active GLP-1 levels, reduced plasma DPP-4 activity and improved beta cell function. Thus, neprilysin inhibition may be a novel treatment strategy for type 2 diabetes.

The aim of the present study was to test whether an underlying ethnic variation of H. pylori infection is responsible for the ethnic variation of microscopic colitis. The Miraca Life Sciences Database is a large national electronic repository of histopathologic records of patients distributed throughout the entire USA. A cross-sectional study evaluated the influence of age, gender, ethnicity, and histologic diagnosis of H. pylori on the occurrence of microscopic colitis among subjects who underwent esophago-gastro-duodenoscopies plus colonoscopy. The total study population comprised 228,506 subjects, of whom 28,890 carried a diagnosis of H. pylori gastritis and 3460 microscopic colitis. Female sex, old age, and H. pylori infection exerted the strongest influence on the occurrence of microscopic colitis. In comparison with the population comprising Caucasians and African-Americans, microscopic colitis was less common among subjects of Hispanic (0.34, 0.27-0.47), East Asian (0.13, 0.06-0.22), Indian (0.31, 0.10-0.73), or Middle Eastern descent (0.28, 0.07-0.74). All these ethnic subgroups were also characterized by a higher prevalence of H. pylori than the comparison group. A low prevalence of H. pylori was significantly associated with a high prevalence of microscopic colitis (R (2) = 0.91, p < 0.001). Ethnic variations in the gastric infection with H. pylori may be partly responsible for the observed ethnic distribution of microscopic colitis.

AECOPD are heterogeneous in nature and this may directly impact clinical decision making, specifically in patients with frequent exacerbations. A 'frequent exacerbator' is a sub-phenotype of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and is defined as an individual who experiences two or more moderate-to-severe exacerbations per year. This distinct subgroup has higher mortality and accounts for more than half of COPD-related hospitalizations annually. Thus, it is imperative to identify individuals at risk for frequent exacerbations and choose optimal strategies to minimize risk for these events. New paradigms for using combination inhalers and the introduction of novel oral compounds provide expanded treatment options to reduce the risk and frequency of exacerbations. The goals of managing frequent exacerbators or patients at risk for AECOPD are: (1) maximizing bronchodilation; (2) reducing inflammation; and (3) targeting specific molecular pathways implicated in COPD and AECOPD pathogenesis. Novel inhaler therapies including combination long-acting muscarinic agents plus long-acting beta agonists show promising results compared with monotherapy or a long-acting beta agonist inhaled corticosteroid combination in reducing exacerbation risk among individuals at risk for exacerbations and among frequent exacerbators. Likewise, oral medications including macrolides and phosphodiesterase-4 inhibitors reduce the risk for AECOPD in select groups of individuals at high risk for exacerbation. Future direction in COPD management is based on the identification of various subtypes or ` endotypes' and targeting therapies based on their pathophysiology. This review describes the impact of AECOPD and the challenges posed by frequent exacerbators, and explores the rationale for different pharmacologic approaches to preventing AECOPD in these individuals.

Thus, antioxidant therapies have gained attention as adjuvants for castration-resistant PCa. Here, we report for the first time that human endostatin (ES) prevents androgen-independent growth phenotype in PCa cells through its molecular targeting of AR and glucocorticoid receptor (GR) and downstream pro-oxidant signaling. This reversal after ES treatment significantly decreased PCa cell proliferation through down-regulation of GR and up-regulation of manganese superoxide dismutase and reduced glutathione levels. Proteome and biochemical analyses of ES-treated PCa cells further indicated a significant up-regulation of enzymes in the major reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavenging machinery, including catalase, glutathione synthetase, glutathione reductase, NADPH-cytochrome P450 reductase, biliverdin reductase, and thioredoxin reductase, resulting in a concomitant reduction of intracellular ROS. ES further augmented the antioxidant system through up-regulation of glucose influx, the pentose phosphate pathway, and NAD salvaging pathways. This shift in cancer cell redox homeostasis by ES significantly decreased the effect of protumorigenic oxidative machinery on androgen-independent PCa growth, suggesting that ES can suppress GR-induced resistant phenotype upon AR antagonism and that the dual targeting action of ES on AR and GR can be further translated to PCa therapy.-Lee, J.

We aimed to examine published literature assessing the influence of medical television programs on health outcomes. We conducted systematic literature searches in PubMed, PsychINFO and CINAHL. Selected studies had to be scholarly research, to involve exposure to fictionalized medical television programming, and to assess associations between exposures and outcomes. Of 3541 unique studies identified, nineteen met selection criteria. The most commonly studied programs were ER (73%), Grey's Anatomy (58%) and House M.D. (37%). Outcomes included knowledge, perceptions and behaviors related to topics as diverse as organ donation, cancer screening, sexually transmitted infections, and heart disease. Viewing fictional medical television programs had a negative influence on viewers' healthrelated knowledge, perceptions and/or behavior in 11% of studies, a positive influence in 32% of studies, and mixed influence in 58%. While most studies (58%) were characterized as having fair quality in terms of rigor of study design, 21% were classified as good and 21% were classified as poor. As such, medical television can affect health education and outcomes. Future work should utilize randomization, more longitudinal assessments, and more direct assessments of health education and behavioral outcomes.

Data SourcesSimulated data. Study DesignThrough simulations, we compared the minority-serving approach of assessing differences in risk-adjusted outcomes at minority-serving and non-minority-serving hospitals with a fixed-effect approach that estimated the reduction in adverse outcomes if the distribution of minority and white patients across hospitals was the same. We evaluated each method's ability to detect and measure a disparity in outcomes caused by minority patients receiving care at poor-quality hospitals, which we label a between-hospital disparity, and to reject it when the disparity in outcomes was caused by factors other than hospital quality. Principal FindingsThe minority-serving and fixed-effect approaches correctly identified between-hospital disparities in quality when they existed and rejected them when racial differences in outcomes were caused by other disparities; however, the fixed-effect approach has many advantages. It does not require an ad hoc definition of a minority-serving hospital, and it estimated the magnitude of the disparity accurately, while the minority-serving approach underestimated the disparity by 35-46 percent. ConclusionsResearchers should consider using the fixed-effect approach for measuring disparities in use of high-quality hospital care by vulnerable populations.

TI Susceptibility to high-altitude pulmonary edema is associated with a more uniform distribution of regional specific ventilation SO JOURNAL OF APPLIED PHYSIOLOGY LA English DT Article DE high-altitude illness; high-altitude pulmonary edema; multiple-breath washout; proton magnetic resonance imaging; specific ventilation imaging ID EXHALED NITRIC-OXIDE; COLLATERAL VENTILATION; BLOOD-FLOW; SUSTAINED MICROGRAVITY; SODIUM-TRANSPORT; ACUTE-HYPOXIA; GAS-EXCHANGE; PROTON MRI; LUNG; HETEROGENEITY AB High-altitude pulmonary edema (HAPE) is a potentially fatal condition affecting high-altitude sojourners. The biggest predictor of HAPE development is a history of prior HAPE. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) shows that HAPE-susceptible (with a history of HAPE), but not HAPE-resistant (with a history of repeated ascents without illness) individuals develop greater heterogeneity of regional pulmonary perfusion breathing hypoxic gas (O-2 = 12.5%), consistent with uneven hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction (HPV). Why HPV is uneven in HAPE-susceptible individuals is unknown but may arise from regionally heterogeneous ventilation resulting in an uneven stimulus to HPV. We tested the hypothesis that ventilation is more heterogeneous in HAPE-susceptible subjects (n = 6) compared with HAPE-resistant controls (n = 7). MRI specific ventilation imaging (SVI) was used to measure regional specific ventilation and the relative dispersion (SD/mean) of SVI used to quantify baseline heterogeneity. Ventilation heterogeneity from conductive and respiratory airways was measured in normoxia and hypoxia (O-2 = 12.5%) using multiple-breath washout and heterogeneity quantified from the indexes S-cond and S-acin, respectively. Contrary to our hypothesis, HAPE-susceptible subjects had significantly lower relative dispersion of specific ventilation than the HAPEresistant controls [susceptible = 1.33 +/- 0.67 (SD), resistant = 2.36 +/- 0.98, P = 0.05], and Sacin tended to be more uniform (susceptible = 0.085 +/- 0.009, resistant = 0.113 +/- 0.030, P = 0.07). Scond was not significantly different between groups (susceptible = 0.019 +/- 0.007, resistant = 0.020 +/- 0.004, P = 0.67). S-acin and S-cond did not change significantly in hypoxia (P = 0.56 and 0.19, respectively). In conclusion, ventilation heterogeneity does not change with short-term hypoxia irrespective of HAPE susceptibility, and lesser rather than greater ventilation heterogeneity is observed in HAPE-susceptible subjects. This suggests that the basis for uneven HPV in HAPE involves vascular phenomena. NEW & NOTEWORTHY Uneven hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction (HPV) is thought to incite high-altitude pulmonary edema (HAPE). We evaluated whether greater heterogeneity of ventilation is also a feature of HAPE-susceptible subjects compared with HAPEresistant subjects. Contrary to our hypothesis, ventilation heterogene-ity was less in HAPE-susceptible subjects and unaffected by hypoxia, suggesting a vascular basis for uneven HPV.

Recent research reveals many polymers can cause immunostimulatory and inflammatory responses, even in the absence of other immune signals. However, the extent to which this intrinsic immunogenicity evolves during degradation is understudied. Here we synthesized a small library of poly(beta amino esters) (PBAEs) that exhibit different starting molecular weights (MWs), but with similar and rapid degradation rates. Primary dendritic cells (DCs) treated with free PBAEs, either intact or degraded to form low MW fragments, were not activated. In contrast particles formed from PBAEs at different extents of degradation caused differential expression of classical DC activation markers (for example, CD40, CD80, CD86, MHCII), as well as antigen presentation. During degradation, activation levels changed with changing physicochemical properties (for example, MW, concentration, size, charge). Of note, irrespective of starting MW, immunogenicity peaked when the MW of degrading PBAEs decreased to a range of similar to 1500-3000 Da. These findings could help inform design of future carriers that exploit the dynamic interactions with the immune system as materials degrade, leading to carriers that deliver cargo but also help direct the immune responses to vaccine or immunotherapy cargo.

Following acute kidney injury, PTECs assume some characteristics of hepatocytes in producing various plasma proteins. We now demonstrate that even at a resting state, a PTEC cell line, HK2 expresses mRNAs for and synthesizes and secretes plasma proteins in a complex with complement C3, an alpha 2-macroglobulin family chaperone, including albumin, transferrin, alpha 1-antitrypsin, alpha 1-antichymotrypsin, alpha 2-HS-glycoprotein, ceruloplasmin, haptoglobin, C1-inhibitor, secreted phosphoprotein-24, and insulin-like growth factor-1. When grown on transwell inserts, HK2 cells predominantly secrete (similar to 90%) plasma proteins into the apical side and a smaller fraction into the basolateral side as determined by ELISA assays. When cultured in the presence of exogenous cytokines such as IL1 beta, IL6, TNF alpha, BMP2, or TGF beta 1, HK2 cell mRNA expressions for plasma proteins were variably affected whereas basolateral secretions were elevated to or in excess of those of the apical level. In addition, HK2 cells produce proTGF beta 1 with its intact N-terminal latency associated peptide and latent-TGF-beta-binding proteins. The complex cannot be dissociated under conditions of SDS, heating, and electrophoresis. Moreover, HK2 cells maintain their ability to quickly uptake exogenously added serum proteins from the culture medium, as if they are recognized differently by the endocytic receptors. These results provide new insight into the hepatization of PTECs. In addition to their unique uptake of plasma proteins and salts from the filtrate, they are a source of urinary proteins under normal conditions as wells as in chronic and acute kidney diseases.

Genetic background profoundly affects metabolic phenotype; therefore, selecting the appropriate model is critical. Although variability in metabolic responses between mouse strains is now well recognized, it also occurs within C57BL/6 mice, of which several substrains exist. This within-strain variability is poorly understood and could emanate from genetic and/or environmental differences. To better define the within strain variability, we performed the first comprehensive comparison of insulin secretion from C57BL/6 substrains 61, 6JWehi, 6NJ, 6NHsd, 6NTac and 6NCrl. in vitro, glucose stimulated insulin secretion correlated with Nnt mutation status, wherein responses were uniformly lower in islets from C57BL/61 vs C57BL/6N mice. In contrast, in vivo insulin responses after 18 weeks of low fat feeding showed no differences among any of the six substrains. When challenged with a high-fat diet for 18 weeks, C57BL/6J substrains responded with a similar increase in insulin release. However, variability was evident among C57BL/6N substrains. Strikingly, 6NJ mice showed no increase in insulin release after high fat feeding, contributing to the ensuing hyperglycemia. The variability in insulin responses among high-fat-fed C57BL/6N mice could not be explained by differences in insulin sensitivity, body weight, food intake or beta-cell area. Rather, as yet unidentified genetic and/or environmental factor(s) are likely contributors. Together, our findings emphasize that caution should be exercised in extrapolating data from in vitro studies to the in vivo situation and inform on selecting the appropriate C57BL/6 substrain for metabolic studies.

Visual hallucinations and illusions are thought to be caused by specific cognitive and higher visual function deficits and patients who develop such symptoms early in the disease course have greater rates of cognitive decline and progression to dementia. To date, no studies have investigated whether such deficits are found prior to the onset of PD psychosis. Method Here we compare baseline cognitive, biomarker (structural imaging and cerebrospinal fluid) and other PD psychosis risk factor data in patients who go on to develop illusions or hallucinations within 3-4 years of follow-up in the Parkinson's Progression Markers Initiative cohort of newly diagnosed PD. Results Of n=423 patients with PD, n=115 (27%) reported predominantly illusions with the median time of onset at 19.5 months follow-up. At study entry these patients had reduced CSF amyloid A beta(1-42), lower olfaction scores, higher depression scores and increased REM sleep behaviour disorder symptoms compared to patients without early onset PD psychosis but no differences in cognitive, higher visual or structural imaging measures. A subset of patients with early onset formed hallucinations (n=21) had reduced higher visual function at baseline, cortical thinning in parietal, occipital and frontal cortex and reduced hippocampal volume. Conclusions The findings suggest early onset illusions and formed hallucinations are linked to amyloid pathology in PD and point to a difference in the underlying pathophysiological mechanism of illusions and formed hallucinations, with implications for their respective links to future cognitive decline.

We show that whereas motor cortex firing rates and beta spiking rhythmicity remain sustained during steady-state movement preparation periods,beta-LFP oscillations emerge, in contrast, as short transient events. Single-neuron mean firing rates within and outside transient beta-LFP events showed no differences, and no consistent correlation was found between the beta oscillation amplitude and firing rates, as was the case for movement- and visual cue-related beta-LFP suppression. Importantly, well-isolated single units featuring beta-rhythmic spiking (43%, 125/292) showed no apparent or only weak phase coupling with the transient beta-LFP oscillations. Similar results were obtained for the population spiking. These findings were common in triple microelectrode array recordings from primary motor (M1), ventral (PMv), and dorsal premotor (PMd) cortices in nonhuman primates during movement preparation. Although beta spiking rhythmicity indicates strong membrane potential fluctuations in the beta band, it does not imply strong phase coupling with beta-LFP oscillations. The observed dissociation points to two different sources of variation in motor cortex beta-LFPs: one that impacts single- neuron spiking dynamics and another related to the generation of mesoscopic beta-LFP signals. Furthermore, our findings indicate that rhythmic spiking and diverse neuronal firing rates, which encode planned actions during movement preparation, may naturally limit the ability of different neuronal populations to strongly phase-couple to a single dominant oscillation frequency, leading to the observed spiking and beta-LFP dissociation. NEW & NOTEWORTHY We show that whereas motor cortex spiking rates and beta (similar to 20 Hz) spiking rhythmicity remain sustained during steady-state movement preparation periods, beta-local field potential (beta-LFP) oscillations emerge, in contrast, as transient events. Furthermore, the beta-LFP phase at which neurons spike drifts: phase coupling is typically weak or absent. This dissociation points to two sources of variation in the level of motor cortex beta: one that impacts single- neuron spiking and and another related to the generation of measured mesoscopic beta-LFPs.

However, in experimental studies, statins also have other non-cholesterol-mediated mechanisms of action, which may have neuroprotective effects. The aim of this study was to determine whether administration of atorvastatin for 7 days post-injury would improve neurological recovery in patients with mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI). The hypothesis was that atorvastatin administration would reduce post-concussion symptoms and also that atorvastatin administration for 1 week post-injury would be safe. One hundred forty patients with mTBI were planned to be enrolled and randomly assigned to receive atorvastatin 1 mg/kg (up to 80 mg/kg) per day or placebo for 7 days starting within 24 h of injury. Assessments of post-concussion syndrome, post-traumatic stress and depressive symptoms, cognition, memory, verbal fluency, functional, and work status were performed at baseline, 1 week, and 1 and 3 months. The result on the Rivermead Post-Concussion Symptoms Questionnaire at 3 months was the primary outcome. Enrollment in the trial was stopped early because of difficulty in recruiting sufficient numbers of subjects. Fifty-two patients with mTBI were enrolled; 28 patients received atorvastatin and 24 received placebo. The median Rivermead score was 2 for the atorvastatin group, compared to 3.5 for the placebo group, at 3 months post-injury (chi(2) (1) = 0.0976; p = 0.7547). The change in the Rivermead score between baseline and 3 months was also analyzed. The median decrease in score was 4 for the atorvastatin group and 10.5 for the placebo group (chi(2) (1) = 0.8750; p = 0.3496). No serious adverse events occurred, and there was no significant difference in the incidence of adverse events in the two treatment groups. Atorvastatin administration for 7 days post-injury was safe, but there were no significant differences in neurological recovery post-mTBI with atorvastatin.

The current study aims to elucidate the contribution of post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptom clusters defined by a five-factor model and alcohol misuse in predicting aggression and suicide attempts among veterans entering residential treatment for PTSD. Participants were 2570 U.S. veterans across 35 Veterans Health Administration sites. Multinomial logistic regression models were used to identify correlates of aggression only (n = 1471; 57.2%), suicide attempts only (n = 41; 1.6%), co-occurring aggression and suicide attempts (n = 202; 7.9%), and neither behavior (n = 856; 33.3%) over the past four months. When compared to veterans endorsing neither behavior, greater PTSD re-experiencing symptoms were related to suicide attempts (odds ratio [OR] = 1.58, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.09-2.30), aggression (OR = 1.13, 95% CI = 1.02-1.26), and co-occurring aggression and suicide (OR = 1.38, 95% CI = 1.13-1.68), and higher PTSD dysphoric arousal symptoms and alcohol misuse symptoms were related to aggression (OR = 1.54, 95% CI = 1.38-1.71; OR = 130, 95% CI = 1.18-1.44, respectively) and co-occurring aggression and suicide (OR = 1.66, 95% CI = 1.35-2.04; OR = 1.50, 95% CI = 1.28-1.75, respectively). Our findings suggest that assessment of PTSD symptom clusters and alcohol misuse can potentially help to identify veterans who endorse suicide attempts, aggression, or both concurrently. These results have important implications for risk assessment and treatment planning with U.S. veterans seeking care for PTSD. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

TI Trends in Transcranial Doppler Monitoring in Aneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage: A 10-Year Analysis of the Nationwide Inpatient Sample SO JOURNAL OF STROKE & CEREBROVASCULAR DISEASES LA English DT Article DE Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage; transcranial Doppler; cerebral vasospasm; Nationwide Inpatient Sample ID DELAYED CEREBRAL-ISCHEMIA; ANGIOGRAPHIC VASOSPASM; NEUROCRITICAL CARE; CT PERFUSION; DOUBLE-BLIND; METAANALYSIS; INFARCTION; ULTRASONOGRAPHY; RECOMMENDATIONS; MANAGEMENT AB Background: Transcranial Doppler (TCD) is endorsed by national guidelines for use in aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) for surveillance of cerebral vasospasm (CV). However, nationwide data on utilization of TCD for CV detection and monitoring in aSAH are lacking. Methods: Analysis of nationwide trends in TCD prevalence was performed using Nationwide Inpatient Sample (NIS) data from 2002 to 2011. Raw counts were converted into weighted counts, which were used to generate national estimates. Teaching hospitals were examined separately for TCD utilization rates. All analyses accounted for the complex sampling design and sample discharge weights of the NIS, following Healthcare Cost and Utilization Project-NIS recommendations. The objective was to estimate the proportion of patients with aSAH receiving TCD monitoring using the NIS. Results: Between 2002 and 2011, a total of 256,089 patients were discharged with a diagnosis of aSAH, of which 3850 underwent TCD monitoring. aSAH accounted for an average of 67.1 discharges per 100,000 annually (95% confidence interval [CI] 61.3-72.8). Of these, 1.5% (95% CI 0.4-2.6) underwent TCD examination. In teaching hospitals, aSAH accounted for an average of 108.5 discharges per 100,000 biennially (95% CI, 96.2-120.8), of which 2% (95% CI 1.0-4.0) underwent TCD examination. TCD utilization increased from < 1% during the 2002-2005 period to = 1.5% during the 2006-2011 period (odds ratio 2.3, 95% CI 1.0-5.7), an increase also seen in teaching hospitals. Conclusions: TCD is underused nationally in the care of aSAH. Whereas the prevalence of TCD is low in teaching hospitals, it is nearly nonexistent in nonteaching hospitals.

TI Use of an extended INR follow-up interval for Veteran patients in an anticoagulation clinic SO JOURNAL OF THROMBOSIS AND THROMBOLYSIS LA English DT Article DE Anticoagulation; Warfarin; Interval; Monitoring; International normalized ratio (INR); Management ID ATRIAL-FIBRILLATION; PREDICTING STROKE; WARFARIN; VALIDATION; OUTCOMES; RISK AB A prospective, single-arm study of 50 participants evaluated an extended INR follow-up interval to determine the implementation feasibility and safety of an extended interval in Veterans on a stable dose of warfarin. A protocol was designed to allow for a rigorous, yet pragmatic evaluation of a 12-week INR follow-up interval. Feasibility was determined by study enrollment, retention, and participant achievement rates for the extended INR interval. Safety was determined by bleeding and thromboembolism rates. Participants were monitored for 6 months. Despite the long-term stability of participants prior to enrollment, only 56% achieved a 12-week follow-up interval and only 34% of enrolled participants maintained a 12-week interval. Sixteen percent of participants were never eligible for an extension of their INR follow-up interval despite meeting initial enrollment criteria. There were two major bleeding events and one participant who experienced a thromboembolic event. Implementation of an extended interval of INR follow-up appears feasible as participant enrollment goals were met and pharmacists were able to follow the study protocol. However, a lower than expected proportion of participants were able to achieve and maintain an extended INR follow-up interval. Future evaluations are needed to confirm the safety of an extended INR interval.

Objective: Examine end-of-life care quality received by Veterans and their families, comparing racial/ethnic minorities to non-minorities. Research Design: This is a retrospective, cross-sectional analysis of chart review and survey data. Subjects: Nearly all deaths in 145 Veterans Affairs Medical Centers nationally (n = 94,697) in addition to Bereaved Family Survey (BFS) data (n = 51,859) from October 2009 to September 2014. Measures: Outcomes included 15 BFS items and 4 indicators of high-quality end-of-life care, including receipt of a palliative care consult, chaplain visit, bereavement contact, and death in hospice/ palliative care unit. Veteran race/ethnicity was measured via chart review and defined as non-Hispanic white, non-Hispanic black, Hispanic, or other. Results: In adjusted models, no differences were observed by race/ ethnicity in receipt of a palliative care consult or death in a hospice unit. Although black Veterans were less likely than white Veterans to receive a chaplain visit, Hispanic Veterans were more likely than white Veterans to receive a chaplain visit and to receive a bereavement contact. Less favorable outcomes for racial/ethnic minorities were noted on several BFS items. In comparison with family members of white Veterans, families of minority Veterans were less likely to report excellent overall care, and this difference was largest for black Veterans (48% vs. 62%). Conclusions: Bereaved family members of minority Veterans generally rate the quality of end-of-life care less favorably than those of white Veterans. Family perceptions are critical to the evaluation of equity and quality of end-of-life care. C1 [Kutney-Lee, Ann; del Rosario, Cindy; Ersek, Mary] Univ Penn, Sch Nursing, Philadelphia, PA 19104 USA.

TI A systematic review of the effects of modifiable risk factor interventions on the progression of multiple sclerosis SO MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS JOURNAL LA English DT Review DE Multiple sclerosis; MS progression; risk factors; randomized controlled trial; systematic review ID POLYUNSATURATED FATTY-ACIDS; TRIAL; EXERCISE AB Background: Several risk factors are associated with multiple sclerosis (MS) progression and may be amenable to intervention. Objective: To systematically review the evidence for interventions targeting risk factors for MS progression. Methods: We searched six databases and existing reviews till March 2015 and consulted with experts to identify randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of interventions targeting MS risk factors (PROSPERO 2015: CRD42015016461). Results: In total, 37 RCTs met inclusion criteria. Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS) scores after exercise interventions did not differ compared with untreated controls (standardized mean differences (SMDs): 0.02; confidence interval (CI): -0.40, 0.44; I-2: 0%; seven RCTs; very low quality of evidence (QoE)). Dietary interventions did not show a statistically significant effect on the relative risk (RR) of progression (RR: 0.86; CI: 0.67, 1.05; I-2: 0%; four RCTs; moderate QoE) compared to placebo. EDSS scores after vitamin D supplementation were not significantly different from placebo (SMD: -0.15; CI: -0.33, 0.02; I-2: 0%; five RCTs; very low QoE). Conclusion: We did not identify any risk factor interventions with significant effects on MS progression, but the overall QoE was limited. More adequately powered trials are needed on vitamin D supplementation, long-term exercise, and smoking cessation. C1 [Hempel, Susanne; Fu, Ning; Miles, Jeremy N.

The diverse clinical manifestations and the clinical course of the disease may vary with modifiable risk factors. Objective: To systematically review modifiable risk factors and exposures associated with MS progression. Methods: We searched six databases till March 2015, reference-mined reviews, and consulted with experts (PROSPERO 2015: CRD42015016461). Two reviewers screened and extracted data. We used random meta-analysis models and Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation (GRADE) to assess the quality of evidence. Results: In total, 59 studies met inclusion criteria. Lower vitamin D levels were associated with higher Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS) scores (r = -0.22; confidence interval (CI) = -0.32, -0.12; 11 studies; I-2 = 66%), smokers had an increased risk of MS progression (hazard ratio (HR) = 1.55; CI = 1.10, 2.19; I-2 = 72%; seven studies), and there was no association of MS progression with the use of epidural analgesics during childbirth delivery (three studies). There was insufficient evidence to draw conclusions for 11 risk factors due to conflicting results or use of different predictor and outcome measures. Conclusion: MS progression was consistently associated with low vitamin D levels, and smoking was associated with a more rapid decline in MS disability. Studies used a variety of methods, predictors, and outcomes making it difficult to draw conclusions. Future studies should focus on prospective assessments.

TI Pimavanserin: A novel therapeutic option for Parkinson disease psychosis SO NEUROLOGY-CLINICAL PRACTICE LA English DT Review ID VISUAL HALLUCINATIONS; CLOZAPINE; QUETIAPINE; RECEPTORS; AGONIST AB Purpose of review:In April 2016, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved a first-in-class atypical antipsychotic medication called pimavanserin for the treatment of Parkinson disease psychosis (PDP). We aim to inform readers about its indications, effectiveness, and safety profile. Recent findings:Pimavanserin acts as an inverse agonist at serotonin 5-HT2A receptors and has negligible effects on other receptors, thereby avoiding the D2 receptor antagonism that can potentially worsen motor symptoms. Its FDA approval was based primarily on the results of a single randomized, placebo-controlled phase 3 trial. Summary:While pimavanserin appears to be a safe, effective, and well-tolerated therapeutic option for PDP, additional clinical trials and open-label extension studies are needed to determine the long-term safety and efficacy of this promising therapy. In the meantime, prescribers need to be aware of the possible adverse effects of pimavanserin including QT interval prolongation and a potential to cause a paradoxical worsening of symptoms.

TI An Institutional Change in Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy: Nutrition Support Team Resolves Resultant Severe Hypophosphatemia SO NUTRITION IN CLINICAL PRACTICE LA English DT Article DE parenteral nutrition; renal replacement therapy; phosphate; hypophosphatemia; renal replacement fluids ID ACUTE KIDNEY INJURY; DRUG SHORTAGES; FAILURE; IMPACT AB Background: Critically ill patients with acute kidney injury may require parenteral nutrition (PN) and continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT). Introduction of a phosphate-free premixed renal replacement fluid without system-wide education in May 2011 resulted in increased incidence of hypophosphatemia, necessitating change in practice. Changes included (1) maximizing phosphate in PN, (2) modifying the CRRT order set, and (3) developing a CRRT competency evaluation for nutrition support team members. This study evaluates the effect of these changes on the incidence of hypophosphatemia. Methods: Phosphate levels and predicated probability of hypophosphatemia were evaluated for patients receiving PN and CRRT over 3 time periods: prior to implementing the changes (preimplementation), during change implementation (intermediate), and following implementation (postimplementation). Hypophosphatemia was defined as a serum phosphate level <2.5 mg/dL. Generalized linear mixed models were applied for statistical analysis. Results: The retrospective study includes 336 measures from 49 patients. Patients in the intermediate and postimplementation periods were not significantly different from each other and had significantly higher mean phosphate levels than patients in the preimplementation period (P <.0001). They were also less likely to develop hypophosphatemia compared with preimplementation patients (intermediate: odds ratio [OR], 0.07; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.03-0.18, P <.0001; postimplementation: OR, 0.09; 95% CI, 0.03-0.27, P <.0001). Conclusions: Modifications in phosphate dosing together with CRRT education reduced the incidence of hypophosphatemia in PN patients receiving CRRT. Communication of significant changes in clinical care should be shared with all services prior to implementation. Communication and planning between services caring for complex patients are necessary to prevent systems-based problems.

OBJECTIVE: To determine the association between 100% fruit juice consumption and change in BMI or BMI z score in children. DATA SOURCES: PubMed, Embase, CINAHL, and Cochrane databases. STUDY SELECTION: Longitudinal studies examining the association of 100% fruit juice and change in BMI measures were included. DATA EXTRACTION: Two independent reviewers extracted data using a predesigned data collection form. RESULTS: Of the 4657 articles screened, 8 prospective cohort studies (n = 34 470 individual children) met the inclusion criteria. Controlling for total energy intake, 1 daily 6-to 8-oz serving increment of 100% fruit juice was associated with a 0.003 (95% CI: 0.001 to 0.004) unit increase in BMI z score over 1 year in children of all ages (0% increase in BMI percentile). In children ages 1 to 6 years, 1 serving increment was associated with a 0.087 (95% confidence interval: 0.008 to 0.167) unit increase in BMI z score (4% increase in BMI percentile). 100% fruit juice consumption was not associated with BMI z score increase in children ages 7 to 18 years. LIMITATIONS: All observational studies; studies differed in exposure assessment and covariate adjustment. CONCLUSIONS: Consumption of 100% fruit juice is associated with a small amount of weight gain in children ages 1 to 6 years that is not clinically significant, and is not associated with weight gain in children ages 7 to 18 years. More studies are needed in children ages 1 to 6 years. C1 [Auerbach, Brandon J.; Krieger, James] Univ Washington, Dept Med, Seattle, WA USA.

The goal of this study was to determine if cell senescence might be a contributing factor in the accelerated aging phenotype observed in the Sod1(-/-) mice. We focused on kidney because it is a tissue that has been shown to a significant increase in senescent cells with age. The Sod1(-/-) mice are characterized by high levels of DNA oxidation in the kidney, which is attenuated by DR. The kidney of the Sod1(-/-) mice also have higher levels of double strand DNA breaks than wild type (WT) mice. Expression (mRNA and protein) of p16 and p21, two of the markers of cellular senescence, which increased with age, are increased significantly in the kidney of Sod1(-/-)mice as is beta-gal staining cells. In addition, the senescence associated secretory phenotype was also increased significantly in the kidney of Sod1(-/-) mice compared to WT mice as measured by the expression of transcripts for IL-6 and IL-1 beta. Dietary restriction of the Sod1(-/-) mice attenuated the increase in DNA damage, cellular senescence, and expression of IL-6 and IL-1 beta. Interestingly, the Sod1-/- mice showed higher levels of circulating cytokines than WT mice, suggesting that the accelerated aging phenotype shown by the Sod1(-/-) mice could result from increased inflammation arising from an accelerated accumulation of senescent cells. Based on our data with Sod1(-/-) mice, we propose that various bouts of increased oxidative stress over the lifespan of an animal leads to the accumulation of senescent cells. The accumulation of senescent cells in turn leads to increased inflammation, which plays a major role in the loss of function and increased pathology that are hallmark features of aging.

Several lines of evidence suggest that these inclusions cause neurodegeneration. Thus exploring strategies to improve neuronal survival in neurons with alpha Syn aggregates is critical. Previously, exposure to alpha Syn pre-formed fibrils (PFFs) has been shown to induce aggregation of endogenous alpha Syn resulting in cell death that is exacerbated by either starvation or inhibition of mTOR by rapamycin, both of which are able to induce autophagy, an intracellular protein degradation pathway. Since mTOR inhibition may also inhibit protein synthesis and starvation itself can be detrimental to neuronal survival, we investigated the effects of autophagy induction on neurons with alpha Syn inclusions by a starvation and mTOR-independent autophagy induction mechanism. We exposed mouse primary cortical neurons to PFFs to induce inclusion formation in the presence and absence of the disaccharide trehalose, which has been proposed to induce autophagy and stimulate lysosomal biogenesis. As expected, we observed that on exposure to PFFs, there was increased abundance of pS129-alpha Syn aggregates and cell death. Trehalose alone increased LC3-II levels, consistent with increased autophagosome levels that remained elevated with PFF exposure. Interestingly, trehalose alone increased cell viability over a 14-d time course. Trehalose was also able to restore cell viability to control levels, but PFFs still exhibited toxic effects on the cells. These data provide essential information regarding effects of trehalose on aSyn accumulation and neuronal survival on exposure to PFF.

Inflammatory mediator expression and leukocyte infiltration were measured in injured and uninjured arteries at 24 hours postinjury by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and immunohistochemistry, respectively. Neointima formation was assessed at 14 days postinjury. RiPS-ECs expressing the IL8RA/B or CCR2/5 homing device targeted the injured arteries and decreased injury-induced inflammatory cytokine expression, neutrophil/macrophage infiltration, and neointima formation. Transfused RiPS-ECs overexpressing IL8RA/B and/or CCR2/5 prevented inflammatory responses and neointima formation after vascular injury. Targeted delivery of iPS-ECs with a homing device to inflammatory mediators in injured arteries provides a novel strategy for the treatment of cardiovascular diseases.

TI Survival Benefit in Older Patients Associated With Earlier Transplant With High KDPI Kidneys SO TRANSPLANTATION LA English DT Article ID EUROTRANSPLANT SENIOR PROGRAM; RENAL-TRANSPLANTATION; RECIPIENTS; DIALYSIS; OUTCOMES; RISK; AGE; THROMBOSIS; VOLUME AB Background. Given high dialysis mortality rates for patients older than 60 years, accepting a kidney with a high Kidney Donor Profile Index (KDPI) score could enable earlier and potentially preemptive transplantation (preKT). However, evidence regarding the risks of high KDPI allografts in older patients is limited. Our objective was to determine the relative benefit for older patients of KDPI greater than 85% transplant either preemptively or not compared with remaining on the waitlist. Methods. United Network of Organ Sharing data from 2003 to 2012 for adult deceased donor kidney transplant candidates was analyzed to evaluate patient survival in patients older than 60 years for preKT and non-preKT KDPI greater than 85% transplants compared with candidates remaining on the waitlist including patients who received KDPI 0% to 85% transplants according to multivariate Cox regression models. Results. In the first year posttransplant for KDPI greater than 85% of transplants in recipients older than 60 years, preKT had a reduced mortality hazard (hazards ratio [HR], 0.61; 95% confidence interval [95% CI], 0.41-0.90) and non-preKT an increased mortality hazard (HR, 1.15; 95% CI, 1.03-1.27) compared with the waitlist including KDPI 0% to 85% transplant recipients. At 1 to 2 years and after 2 years, both KDPI greater than 85% groups had significant reductions in mortality (1-2 years: preKT HR, 0.38; 95% CI, [0.23-0.60] and non-preKT HR, 0.52; 95% CI, 0.45-0.61; and 2+ years: preKT HR, 0.50; 95% CI, 0.38-0.66 and non-preKT HR, 0.64; 95% CI, 0.58-0.70, respectively). Conclusions. PreKT and non-preKT KDPI greater than 85% transplant was associated with lower mortality hazard after the first year compared with the waitlist including KDPI 0% to 85% transplants in patients older than 60 years. Further consideration should be given to increased utilization of high KDPI grafts in older patients with the goal of avoiding or limiting time on dialysis.

Recipients of vascularized composite allografts require aggressive and lifelong immunosuppression, and because the surgery is usually performed in nonlife-threatening situations, the development of strategies to minimize immunosuppression is especially pertinent for this procedure. We investigated how complement affects acute graft injury, alloimmunity, and immunosuppressive therapy. Methods. Vascularized composite allografts were transplanted from Balb/C to C57BL/6 mice that were complement deficient (C3 or double C3a Receptor (R)/C5aR), or treated with a targeted complement inhibitor (CR2-Crry). Allografts were analyzed for acute inflammation and injury, subacute T cell response, and survival in the absence and presence of cyclosporine A (CsA) therapy. Results. Allografts in C3-deficient or CR2-Crry-treated recipients were protected from skin and muscle ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI). C3aR/C5aR-deficient recipients were more modestly protected. IgM and C3d colocalized within allografts from wild type and C3aR/C5aR-deficient recipients indicating IgM-mediated complement activation, and C3d deposition was almost absent in allografts from C3-deficient and CR2-Crry-treated recipients. Inflammatory cell infiltration and P-selectin expression was also significantly reduced in C3-deficient and CR2-Crry-treated recipients. Acute treatment with CR2-Crry or with 3 mg/kg per day CsA modestly, but significantly increased median allograft survival from 5.8 to 7.4 and 7.2 days, respectively. However, combined acute CR2-Crry treatment and CsA therapy increased mean graft survival to 17.2 days. Protection was associated with significantly reduced T cell infiltration of allografts and Tc1 cells in recipient spleens. Conclusions. Complement-mediated IRI augments graft allogenicity, and appropriate complement inhibition ameliorates IRI, decreases alloimmune priming and allows more immune-sparing CsA dosing.

With an increasing incidence and inability to make major progress, it represents the very definition of unmet medical need. Progress has been made in understanding the basic biology-systematic genomic sequencing has led to the recognition that PDAC is not typically a heavily mutated tumor, although there are exceptions. The most consistently mutated genes are KRAS, CDKN2A, TP53, and SMAD4/DPC4. Study of familial PDAChas led to the recognition that a variety of defects in DNA repair genes can be associated with the emergence of pancreatic cancer. Recent studies suggest that epigenetics may play a larger role than previously recognized. A major new understanding is the recognition that PDAC should be considered a composite of tumor cells, as well as pancreatic stellate cells, immune cells, and extracellular matrix. The individual components contribute to metabolic aberration, immune dysfunction, and chemotherapy resistance, and therapeutic innovationsmaybe needed to address them individually. It has also been recognized that metastatic seeding from PDAC occurs very early in the disease course-in an estimated 73% of cases, once the tumor reaches 2 cm. The implication of this is that therapies directed toward micrometastatic disease and increasing fractional cell kill are most needed. Neoadjuvant approaches have been taken to increase resectability and improve outcome. So much work remains, and most critical is the need to understand how this tumor originates and develops.

This study investigated risk and protective factors both characteristics and precipitating events of tenant eviction informing permanent supportive housing (PSH) programs' efforts to identify tenants at risk and intervene. Methods: Using administrative data for a cohort of 20,146 Veterans participating in PSH, this study assessed differences in Veterans who exited the program due to eviction and Veterans Who exited because they accomplished their goals. A series of logistic regressions identified patterns of health services use that may signal imminent eviction. Results: Veterans with a drug use disorder and those who received inpatient, emergency, or outpatient care related to mental/behavioral health and substance use conditions proximal to program exit had greater risk for eviction. Receipt of outpatient primary medical care and supportive services was generally protective against eviction. The likelihood of eviction was greatest for Veterans with acute care use within 30 days of exit. Discussion: PSH providers may use these correlates of eviction to identify Veterans in need of an intervention to prevent eviction. Future work should focus on operationalizing these findings and identifying appropriate interventions. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

The results of this study show increased production of IL-2 and the inflammatory cytokines IL-6, IL-17 and TNF-a by spleen cells of lesion-bearing mice that were treated with PD-1 antibody for 1 week compared to cytokine production by spleen cells of lesion-bearing mice treated with control antibody. Production of IFN-c increased at 3 weeks of PD-1 antibody treatment, although production of the other Th1 and inflammatory mediators declined. By 5 weeks, levels of these cytokines declined for both control and PD-1 antibody-treated mice. Flow cytometric analysis for IFN-c-expressing cells showed shifts in CD4(+) 1 cells expressing IFN-c consistent with the changes in cytokine secretion. Whether or not treatment generated reactivity to lesions or HNSCC was determined. Spleen cells from PD-1 antibody- treated mice were stimulated by lysates of premalignant lesion and HNSCC tongue tissues to produce increased levels of Th1 and select inflammatory cytokines early in the course of PD-1 antibody treatment. However, with continued treatment, reactivity to lesion and HNSCC lysates declined. Analysis of clinical response to treatment suggested an early delay in lesion progression but, with continued treatment, lesions in PD-1 antibody-treated mice progressed to the same degree as in control antibody-treated mice. Overall, these results show an early beneficial response to PD-1 antibody treatment, which then fails with continued treatment and lesion progression. C1 [Levingston, Corinne A.; Young, M.

TI Comparative Effectiveness of Vancomycin and Metronidazole for the Prevention of Recurrence and Death in Patients With Clostridium difficile Infection SO JAMA INTERNAL MEDICINE LA English DT Article ID PSEUDOMEMBRANOUS COLITIS; STEWARDSHIP PROGRAMS; CARE FACILITIES; DIARRHEA; DISEASE; RISK; EPIDEMIOLOGY; GUIDELINES; SEVERITY; RATIOS AB IMPORTANCE Metronidazole hydrochloride has historically been considered first-line therapy for patients with mild to moderate Clostridium difficile infection (CDI) but is inferior to vancomycin hydrochloride for clinical cure. The choice of therapy may likewise have substantial consequences on other downstream outcomes, such as recurrence and mortality, although these secondary outcomes have been less studied. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the risk of recurrence and all-cause 30-day mortality among patients receiving metronidazole or vancomycin for the treatment of mild to moderate and severe CDI. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS This retrospective, propensity-matched cohort study evaluated patients treated for CDI, defined as a positive laboratory test result for the presence of C difficile toxins or toxin genes in a stool sample, in the US Department of Veterans Affairs health care system from January 1, 2005, through December 31, 2012. Data analysis was performed from February 7, 2015, through November 22, 2016. EXPOSURES Treatment with vancomycin or metronidazole. MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURES The outcomes of interest in this study were CDI recurrence and all-cause 30-day mortality. Recurrence was defined as a second positive laboratory test result within 8 weeks of the initial CDI diagnosis. All-cause 30-day mortality was defined as death from any cause within 30 days of the initial CDI diagnosis. RESULTS A total of 47 471 patients (mean [SD] age, 68.8 [13.3] years; 1947 women [4.1%] and 45 524 men [95.9%]) developed CDI, were treated with vancomycin or metronidazole, and met criteria for entry into the study. Of 47 147 eligible first treatment episodes, 2068 (4.4%) were with vancomycin. Those 2068 patients were matched to 8069 patients in the metronidazole group for a total of 10 137 included patients. Subcohorts were constructed that comprised 5452 patients with mild to moderate disease and 3130 patients with severe disease. There were no differences in the risk of recurrence between patients treated with vancomycin vs those treated with metronidazole in any of the disease severity cohorts. Among patients in the any severity cohort, those who were treated with vancomycin were less likely to die (adjusted relative risk, 0.86; 95% CI, 0.74 to 0.98; adjusted risk difference, -0.02; 95% CI, -0.03 to -0.01). No significant difference was found in the risk of mortality between treatment groups among patients with mild to moderate CDI, but vancomycin significantly reduced the risk of all-cause 30-day mortality among patients with severe CDI (adjusted relative risk, 0.79; 95% CI, 0.65 to 0.97; adjusted risk difference, -0.04; 95% CI, -0.07 to -0.01). CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE Recurrence rates were similar among patients treated with vancomycin and metronidazole. However, the risk of 30-day mortality was significantly reduced among patients who received vancomycin. Our findings may further justify the use of vancomycin as initial therapy for severe CDI.

Therefore, the objective of this study was to describe the prevalence of potential drug-drug and drug-disease interactions and associated factors in community-dwelling older adults. Methods: This cross-sectional study included 3055 adults aged 70-79 without mobility limitations at their baseline visit in the Health Aging and Body Composition Study conducted in the communities of Pittsburgh PA and Memphis TN, USA. The outcome factors were potential drug-drug and drug-disease interactions as per the application of explicit criteria drawn from a number of sources to self-reported prescription and non-prescription medication use. Results: Over one-third of participants had at least one type of interaction. Approximately one quarter (25.1%) had evidence of had one or more drug-drug interactions. Nearly 10.7% of the participants had a drug-drug interaction that involved a non-prescription medication. % The most common drug-drug interaction was non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) affecting antihypertensives. Additionally, 16.0% had a potential drug-disease interaction with 3.7% participants having one involving non-prescription medications. The most common drug-disease interaction was aspirin/NSAID use in those with history of peptic ulcer disease without gastroprotection. Over one-third (34.0%) had at least one type of drug interaction. Each prescription medication increased the odds of having at least one type of drug interaction by 35-40% [drug-drug interaction adjusted odds ratio (AOR) = 1.35, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 1.27-1.42; drug-disease interaction AOR = 1.30; CI = 1.21-1.40; and both AOR = 1.45; CI = 1.34-1.57]. A prior hospitalization increased the odds of having at least one type of drug interaction by 49-84% compared with those not hospitalized (drug-drug interaction AOR = 1.49, 95% CI = 1.11-2.01; drug-disease interaction AOR = 1.69, CI = 1.15-2.49; and both AOR = 1.84, CI = 1.20-2.84). What is new and conclusionDrug interactions are common among community-dwelling older adults and are associated with the number of medications and hospitalization in the previous year. Longitudinal studies are needed to evaluate the impact of drug interactions on health-related outcomes. C1 [Hanlon, J. T.; Perera, S.; Newman, A. B.; Marcum, Z.

The goal of this research was to prospectively evaluate neurocognitive functioning among a group of HCV mono-infected and HIV/HCV co-infected patients during the first 24 weeks of IFN/RBV treatment while accounting for practice effects, normal variations in change over time, and variations in IFN/RBV treatment exposure. Forty-four HCV mono-infected and 30 HIV/HCV co-infected patients were enrolled in a prospective study of patients beginning on IFN/RBV for chronic HCV infection. Patients were administered a depression inventory, a measure of fatigue, a structured psychiatric interview, and a neurocognitive battery at baseline and 24 weeks after initiation of treatment. Analyses were conducted to explore possible associations between neurocognitive functioning and the following: HIV/HCV co-infection vs. HCV mono-infection, IFN and RBV treatment exposure, psychiatric status, liver disease stage, and other medical characteristics. At baseline, there were no significant differences between the two groups' neuropsychiatric or neurocognitive function other than the mono-infected group had significantly higher reports of fatigue (p = 0.033). Over the course of 24 weeks of treatment after controlling for practice effects, the HIV/HCV co-infected patients experienced significantly greater declines in memory (t(56) = 2.14, p = 0.037) and global neurocognitive functioning (t(53) = 2.28, p = 0.027). In a well-characterized sample of mono-infected and co-infected patients, it appears that persons with HIV/HCV co-infection are potentially more vulnerable to neurocognitive sequalae during HCV treatment.

TI Prediction of Relapse After Discontinuation of Antipsychotic Treatment in Alzheimer's Disease: The Role of Hallucinations SO AMERICAN JOURNAL OF PSYCHIATRY LA English DT Article ID NEUROPSYCHIATRIC INVENTORY; DEMENTIA; DRUGS AB Objective: In Alzheimer's disease, antipsychotic medications are often used for a period, with relief of symptoms, and then discontinued, after which relapse may occur. The authors sought to determine which neuropsychiatric symptoms predict relapse. Method: In the Antipsychotic Discontinuation in Alzheimer's Disease trial, 180 patients with Alzheimer's disease and symptoms of agitation or psychosis were treated with risperidone for 16 weeks, after which patients who responded (N=110) were randomly assigned to continue risperidone for 32 weeks, to continue risperidone for 16 weeks followed by switch to placebo for 16 weeks, or to receive placebo for 32 weeks. As reported previously, discontinuation of risperidone was associated with a two-to fourfold increased risk of relapse over 16-32 weeks. In planned post hoc analyses, the authors examined associations between the 12 symptom domains in the Neuropsychiatric Inventory (NPI) and relapse in the first 16-week phase after randomization. Results: Compared with patients with mild hallucinations or no hallucinations, patients with severe hallucinations as a presenting symptom at baseline had a higher likelihood of relapse (hazard ratio=2.96, 95% CI=1.52, 5.76). This effect was present for the subgroup with auditory hallucinations, but not the subgroup with visual hallucinations. Among patients with baseline hallucinations, 13 of 17 (76.5%) who discontinued risperidone relapsed, compared with 10 of 26 (38.5%) who continued risperidone (p<0.02). This group difference remained significant for severe (77.8%) compared with mild (36%) hallucinations. NPI domain scores after the initial open-treatment phase were not associated with relapse. Conclusions: Patients with severe baseline hallucinations were more likely to relapse after randomization, and the presence of baseline hallucinations was associated with a higher risk of relapse after discontinuation of risperidone compared with continued risperidone treatment. For patients with hallucinations, particularly auditory hallucinations, antipsychotic discontinuation should be approached cautiously because of high relapse risk. C1 [Devanand, D.

Although substantial progress has been made in mapping the connections of the brain, less is known about how this organization translates into brain function. In particular, the massive interconnectivity of the brain has made it difficult to specifically examine data transmission between two nodes of the connectome, a central component of the 'neural code.' Here, we investigated the propagation of multiple streams of asynchronous neuronal activity across an isolated in vitro 'connectome unit.' Approach. We used the novel technique of axon stretch growth to create a model of a long-range cortico-cortical network, a modular system consisting of paired nodes of cortical neurons connected by axon tracts. Using optical stimulation and multi-electrode array recording techniques, we explored how input patterns are represented by cortical networks, how these representations shift as they are transmitted between cortical nodes and perturbed by external conditions, and how well the downstream node distinguishes different patterns. Main results. Stimulus representations included direct, synaptic, and multiplexed responses that grew in complexity as the distance between the stimulation source and recorded neuron increased. These representations collapsed into patterns with lower information content at higher stimulation frequencies. With internodal activity propagation, a hierarchy of network pathways, including latent circuits, was revealed using glutamatergic blockade. As stimulus channels were added, divergent, non-linear effects were observed in local versus distant network layers. Pairwise difference analysis of neuronal responses suggested that neuronal ensembles generally outperformed individual cells in discriminating input patterns. Significance. Our data illuminate the complexity of spiking activity propagation in cortical networks in vitro, which is characterized by the transformation of an input into myriad outputs over several network layers. These results provide insight into how the brain potentially processes information and generates the neural code and could guide the development of clinical therapies based on multichannel brain stimulation.

Fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) decreases 1,25(OH)(2)D production and thus, could increase infection risk. We examined this possibility in 3141 community-dwelling adults ages >= 65 years old at baseline in the Cardiovascular Health Study using Cox proportional hazards models to examine the association between FGF23 concentrations and first infection-related hospitalizations and determine whether associations differed by the presence of CKD (eGFR<60 ml/min per 1.73 m(2) [n=832] or urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio >30 mg/g [n=577]). Mean +/- SD age of participants was 78 5 years old, 60% of participants were women, and the median plasma FGF23 concentration was 70 (interquartile range, 53-99) relative units per milliliter. In fully adjusted models, higher FGF23 concentrations associated with higher risk of first infection related hospitalization (hazard ratio [HR], 1.11; 95% confidence interval [95% CI], 1.03 to 1.20 per doubling of FGF23) during a median follow-up of 8.6 years. In participants with or without CKD (defined by eGFR), FGF23 concentration associated with first infection-related hospitalization with HRs of 1.24 (95% CI, 1.08 to 1.42) and 1.06 (95% CI, 0.97 to 1.17) per doubling of FGF23, respectively (P=0.13 for interaction). Associations did not differ between groups when stratified by urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio. In sensitivity analyses, the addition of serum calcium, phosphorus, 25-hydroxyvitamin D, intact parathyroid hormone, and 24,25-dihydroxyvitamin D did not meaningfully change the estimates. In conclusion, in community-dwelling older adults, higher plasma FGF23 concentrations independently associated with the risk of first infection-related hospitalization.

Methods Preclinical arthritis models were used to examine the impact of obesity on disease onset and remission. Conditioned media from RA adipose tissues were used to investigate the mechanism contributing to joint neutrophil influx and M1 macrophage differentiation observed in early and remission phases of arthritis. Results We report that mice fed with high fat diet (HFD) have an earlier onset of collagen-induced arthritis (CIA) compared with mice on regular diet. However, the differences in CIA joint swelling between the two diet groups are lost once disease is established. We found that early arthritis triggered by obesity is due to elevated joint MIP2/interleukin-8 levels detected in CIA as well as in the RA and mouse adipose tissues and the effect of this chemokine on neutrophil recruitment. Although active disease progression is similarly affected in both diet groups, arthritis resolution is accelerated in lean mice while joint inflammation is sustained in obese mice. We document that HFD can prolong toll-like receptor (TLR) 4-induced arthritis by increasing joint monocyte migration and further remodelling the recruited cells into M1 macrophages. Consistently, we show that adipose condition media can transform RA and wild-type naive myeloid cells into M1 macrophages; however, this function is impaired by TLR4 blockade or deficiency. Conclusions We conclude that despite established disease being unaffected by obesity, the early and the resolution phases of RA are impacted by obesity through different mechanisms.

The KDIGO guideline defines AKI as an abrupt decrease in kidney function occurring over 7 days or less, whereas CKD is defined by the persistence of kidney disease for a period of > 90 days. AKI and CKD are increasingly recognized as related entities and in some instances probably represent a continuum of the disease process. For patients in whom pathophysiologic processes are ongoing, the term acute kidney disease (AKD) has been proposed to define the course of disease after AKI; however, definitions of AKD and strategies for the management of patients with AKD are not currently available. In this consensus statement, the Acute Disease Quality Initiative (ADQI) proposes definitions, staging criteria for AKD, and strategies for the management of affected patients. We also make recommendations for areas of future research, which aim to improve understanding of the underlying processes and improve outcomes for patients with AKD.

In recent years, research has focused on the pre-dementia stages of cognitive impairment in PD, including mild cognitive impairment (MCI). Several longitudinal studies have shown that MCI is a harbinger of dementia in PD, although the course is variable, and stabilization of cognition-or even reversal to normal cognition - is not uncommon. In addition to limbic and cortical spread of Lewy pathology, several other mechanisms are likely to contribute to cognitive decline in PD, and a variety of biomarker studies, some using novel structural and functional imaging techniques, have documented in vivo brain changes associated with cognitive impairment. The evidence consistently suggests that low cerebrospinal fluid levels of amyloid-beta(42), a marker of comorbid Alzheimer disease (AD), predict future cognitive decline and dementia in PD. Emerging genetic evidence indicates that in addition to the APOE*epsilon 4 allele (an established risk factor for AD), GBA mutations and SCNA mutations and triplications are associated with cognitive decline in PD, whereas the findings are mixed for MAPT polymorphisms. Cognitive enhancing medications have some effect in PD dementia, but no convincing evidence that progression from MCI to dementia can be delayed or prevented is available, although cognitive training has shown promising results.

However, despite significant advances in animal and in vitro models, little knowledge has been directly accrued regarding the neurobiology of the opiate-addicted human brain. METHODS: We used postmortem human brain specimens from a homogeneous European Caucasian population of heroin users for transcriptional and epigenetic profiling, as well as direct assessment of chromatin accessibility in the striatum, a brain region central to reward and emotion. A rat heroin self-administration model was used to obtain translational molecular and behavioral insights. RESULTS: Our transcriptome approach revealed marked impairments related to glutamatergic neurotransmission and chromatin remodeling in the human striatum. A series of biochemical experiments tracked the specific location of the epigenetic disturbances to hyperacetylation of lysine 27 of histone H3, showing dynamic correlations with heroin use history and acute opiate toxicology. Targeted investigation of GRIA1, a glutamatergic gene implicated in drug-seeking behavior, verified the increased enrichment of lysine-27 acetylated histone H3 at discrete loci, accompanied by enhanced chromatin accessibility at hyperacetylated regions in the gene body. Analogous epigenetic impairments were detected in the striatum of heroin self-administering rats. Using this translational model, we showed that bromodomain inhibitor JQ1, which blocks the functional readout of acetylated lysines, reduced heroin self-administration and cue-induced drug-seeking behavior. CONCLUSIONS: Overall, our data suggest that heroin-related histone H3 hyperacetylation contributes to glutamatergic transcriptional changes that underlie addiction behavior and identify JQ1 as a promising candidate for targeted clinical interventions in heroin use disorder.

TI Evidence That the Sympathetic Nervous System Elicits Rapid, Coordinated, and Reciprocal Adjustments of Insulin Secretion and Insulin Sensitivity During Cold Exposure SO DIABETES LA English DT Article ID GLUCOSE-TOLERANCE; INTRAVENOUS GLUCOSE; PERIPHERAL-TISSUES; DISPOSITION INDEX; B-CELL; RESISTANCE; RATS; DIET; DOGS; QUANTIFICATION AB Dynamic adjustment of insulin secretion to compensate for changes of insulin sensitivity that result from alteration of nutritional or metabolic status is a fundamental aspect of glucose homeostasis. To investigate the role of the brain in this coupling process, we used cold exposure as an experimental paradigm because the sympathetic nervous system (SNS) helps to coordinate the major shifts of tissue glucose utilization needed to ensure that increased thermogenic needs are met. We found that glucose-induced insulin secretion declined by 50% in rats housed at 5 degrees C for 28 h, and yet, glucose tolerance did not change, owing to a doubling of insulin sensitivity. These potent effects on insulin secretion and sensitivity were fully reversed by returning animals to room temperature (22 degrees C) for 4 h or by intravenous infusion of the alpha-adrenergic receptor antagonist phentolamine for only 30 min. By comparison, insulin clearance was not affected by cold exposure or phentolamine infusion. These findings offer direct evidence of a key role for the brain, acting via the SNS, in the rapid, highly coordinated, and reciprocal changes of insulin secretion and insulin sensitivity that preserve glucose homeostasis in the setting of cold exposure.

We used a visual oddball task during fMRI to examine functional connectivity within and between the ventral and dorsal attention networks to determine the relative contribution of each network to detection of rare visual targets in schizophrenia. The sample comprised 25 schizophrenia patients and 27 healthy controls. Psychophysiological interaction analysis was used to examine whole-brain functional connectivity in response to targets. We used the right temporo parietal junction (TPJ) as the seed region for the ventral network and the right medial intraparietal sulcus (IPS) as the seed region for the dorsal network. We found that connectivity between right IPS and right anterior insula (AI; a component of the ventral network) was significantly greater in controls than patients. Expected patterns of within-and between network connectivity for right TPJ were observed in controls, and not significantly different in patients. These findings indicate functional connectivity deficits between the dorsal and ventral attention networks in schizophrenia that may create problems in processing relevant versus irrelevant stimuli. Understanding the nature of network disruptions underlying cognitive deficits of schizophrenia may help shed light on the pathophysiology of this disorder.

Veterans Health Administration (VA) researchers and health systems leaders have worked separately and together to provide more effective weight management programs for Veterans. Although randomized clinical trials are often considered the gold standard for establishing efficacy of interventions in controlled circumstances, pragmatic clinical trials (PCTs) provide agility for translation. Main text: VA researchers and health system leaders collaboratively designed a PCT to compare the Diabetes Prevention Program (VA-DPP) to usual care (MOVE (R)) in promoting weight loss and glycemic control among overweight/obese Veterans with prediabetes. Together, they navigated the tensions that exist between quality improvement and research activities, facing challenges but reaping significant rewards. Early findings led to updated national guidance for delivering obesity treatment in VA. Short conclusion: Partnered research and the use of PCTs can be powerful strategies for accelerating evidence-based findings into practice. Collaborative partnerships between researchers and health systems leaders can help enhance and sustain translation in real-world settings.

TI Migration of mitochondrial DNA in the nuclear genome of colorectal adenocarcinoma SO GENOME MEDICINE LA English DT Article DE Cancer; Tumor; Colorectal cancer; Mitochondria; Mitochondrial DNA; YME1L1; NUMT; Numtogenesis; mtDNA transfer; Genetic instability ID HUMAN MYOCARDIAL-CELLS; HUMAN GENETIC-DISEASE; SACCHAROMYCES-CEREVISIAE; INTRANUCLEAR MITOCHONDRIA; CANCER-CELLS; COPY NUMBER; DYSFUNCTION; MUTATIONS; TRANSFORMATION; PSEUDOGENES AB Background: Colorectal adenocarcinomas are characterized by abnormal mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) copy number and genomic instability, but a molecular interaction between mitochondrial and nuclear genome remains unknown. Here we report the discovery of increased copies of nuclear mtDNA (NUMT) in colorectal adenocarcinomas, which supports link between mtDNA and genomic instability in the nucleus. We name this phenomenon of nuclear occurrence of mitochondrial component as numtogenesis. We provide a description of NUMT abundance and distribution in tumor versus matched blood-derived normal genomes. Methods: Whole-genome sequence data were obtained for colon adenocarcinoma and rectum adenocarcinoma patients participating in The Cancer Genome Atlas, via the Cancer Genomics Hub, using the GeneTorrent file acquisition tool. Data were analyzed to determine NUMT proportion and distribution on a genome-wide scale. A NUMT suppressor gene was identified by comparing numtogenesis in other organisms. Results: Our study reveals that colorectal adenocarcinoma genomes, on average, contains up to 4.2-fold more somatic NUMTs than matched normal genomes. Women colorectal tumors contained more NUMT than men. NUMT abundance in tumor predicted parallel abundance in blood. NUMT abundance positively correlated with GC content and gene density. Increased numtogenesis was observed with higher mortality. We identified YME1L1, a human homolog of yeast YME1 (yeast mitochondrial DNA escape 1) to be frequently mutated in colorectal tumors. YME1L1 was also mutated in tumors derived from other tissues. We show that inactivation of YME1L1 results in increased transfer of mtDNA in the nuclear genome. Conclusions: Our study demonstrates increased somatic transfer of mtDNA in colorectal tumors. Our study also reveals sex-based differences in frequency of NUMT occurrence and that NUMT in blood reflects NUMT in tumors, suggesting NUMT may be used as a biomarker for tumorigenesis. We identify YME1L1 as the first NUMT suppressor gene in human and demonstrate that inactivation of YME1L1 induces migration of mtDNA to the nuclear genome. Our study reveals that numtogenesis plays an important role in the development of cancer.

Whether functional impairment of sympathetic nervous system (SNS) innervation to tissues of the abdominal cavity reduce circulating concentrations of triglyceride (TG) and VLDL particles (VLDL-P) was tested in men with spinal cord injury (SCI). Methods One hundred-three non-ambulatory men with SCI [55 subjects with neurologic injury at or proximal to the 4th thoracic vertebrae (T up arrow 4); 48 subjects with SCI at or distal to the 5th thoracic vertebrae (down arrow T5)] and 53 able-bodied (AB) subjects were studied. Fasting blood samples were obtained for determination of TG, VLDL-P concentration by NMR spectroscopy, serum glucose by autoanalyzer, and plasma insulin by radioimmunoassay. VAT volume was determined by dual energy x-ray absorptiometry imaging with calculation by a validated proprietary software package. Results Significant group main effects for TG and VLDL-P were present; post-hoc tests revealed that serum TG concentrations were significantly higher in down arrow T5 group compared to AB and up arrow T4 groups [150 +/- 9 vs. 101 +/- 8 (p<0.01) and 112 +/- 8 mg/dl (p<0.05), respectively]. VLDL-P concentration was significantly elevated in down arrow T5 group compared to AB and up arrow T4 groups [74 +/- 4 vs. 58 4 (p<0.05) and 55 +/- 4 mu mol/l(p<0.05)]. VAT volume was significantly higher in both SCI groups than in the AB group, and HOMA-IR was higher and approached significance in the SCI groups compared to the AB group. A linear relationship between triglyceride rich lipoproteins (i.e., TG or Large VLDL-P) and VAT volume or HOMA-IR was significant only in the down arrow T5 group. Conclusions Despite a similar VAT volume and insulin resistance in both SCI groups, the down arrow T5 group had significantly higher serum TG and VLDL-P values than that observed in the up arrow T4 and the AB control groups. Thus, level of injury is an important determinate of the concentration of circulating triglyceride rich lipoproteins, which may play a role in the genesis of cardiometabolic dysfunction.

TI NEUTRALIZING ANTI-INTERLEUKIN-1 beta ANTIBODIES REDUCE ISCHEMIA-RELATED INTERLEUKIN-1 beta TRANSPORT ACROSS THE BLOOD-BRAIN BARRIER IN FETAL SHEEP SO NEUROSCIENCE LA English DT Article DE blood-brain barrier; cytokines; interleukin-1 beta; fetus; hypoxia-ischemia; sheep ID EXTREMELY PRETERM INFANTS; NECROSIS-FACTOR-ALPHA; WHITE-MATTER INJURY; IN-OVINE FETUSES; NEONATAL ENCEPHALOPATHY; INFLAMMATORY CYTOKINES; PROTEIN EXPRESSION; CEREBRAL-ISCHEMIA; ENDOTHELIAL-CELLS; TNF-ALPHA AB Hypoxic ischemic insults predispose to perinatal brain injury. Pro-inflammatory cytokines are important in the evolution of this injury. Interleukin-1 beta (IL-1 beta) is a key mediator of inflammatory responses and elevated IL-1b levels in brain correlate with adverse neuro developmental outcomes after brain injury. Impaired blood-brain barrier (BBB) function represents an important component of hypoxic-ischemic brain injury in the fetus. In addition, ischemia-reperfusion increases cytokine transport across the BBB of the ovine fetus. Reducing pro-inflammatory cytokine entry into brain could represent a novel approach to attenuate ischemia-related brain injury. We hypothesized that infusions of neutralizing IL-1 beta monoclonal antibody (mAb) reduce IL-1 beta transport across the BBB after ischemia in the fetus. Fetal sheep were studied 24-h after 30-min of carotid artery occlusion. Fetuses were treated with placebo-or anti-IL-1 beta mAb intravenously 15-min and 4-h after ischemia. Ovine IL-1 beta protein expressed from IL-1 beta pGEX-2T vectors in Escherichia coli (E.coli) BL-21 cells was produced, purified, and radiolabeled with (125) I. BBB permeability was quantified using the blood-to-brain transfer constant (K-i) with I-125-radiolabeled-IL-1 beta. Increases in antiIL-1 beta mAb were observed in the brain of the mAb-treated group (P < 0.001). Blood-to-brain transport of I-125-IL-1 beta was lower (P < 0.04) across brain regions in the anti-IL-1 beta mAb-treated than placebo-treated ischemic fetuses. Plasma I-125-IL-1 beta counts were higher (P < 0.001) in the anti-IL-1 beta mAb-than placebo-treated ischemic fetuses. Systemic infusions of anti-IL-1 beta mAb reduce IL-1 beta transport across the BBB after ischemia in the ovine fetus. Our findings suggest that conditions associated with increases in systemic proinflammatory cytokines and neurodevelopmental impairment could benefit from an anti-cytokine therapeutic strategy.

TI Inositol Depletion Induced by Acute Treatment of the Bipolar Disorder Drug Valproate Increases Levels of Phytosphingosine SO JOURNAL OF BIOLOGICAL CHEMISTRY LA English DT Article ID SACCHAROMYCES-CEREVISIAE; SPHINGOLIPID HOMEOSTASIS; PROTEIN; BIOSYNTHESIS; YEAST; GENES; ORM2; PHOSPHORYLATION; MODULATION; LITHIUM AB Bipolar disorder (BD) is a severe psychiatric illness affecting similar to 1% of the world population. Valproate (VPA) and lithium, widely used for the treatment of BD, are not universally effec-tive. These drugs have been shown to cause inositol depletion, but translating this observation to a specific therapeutic mech-anism has been difficult, hampering the development of more effective therapies. We have shown previously in yeast that chronic VPA treatment induces the unfolded protein response due to increasing ceramide levels. To gain insight into the mechanisms activated during acute VPA treatment, we performed a genome-wide expression study in yeast treated with VPA for 30 min. We observed increased mRNA and protein levels of RSB1, which encodes an exporter of long chain bases dihydrosphingosine (DHS) and phytosphingosine (PHS), and further saw that VPA increased sensitivity of an rsb1 Delta mutant to PHS, suggesting that VPA increases long chain base levels. Consistent with this, PHS levels were elevated in wild type and, to a greater extent, in rsb1 Delta cells. Expression of ORM genes (negative regulators of PHS synthesis) and of fatty acid elongase genes FEN1 and SUR4 were decreased, and expression of YOR1 (exporter of PHS-1P) and DPL1 (lyase that degrades DHS-1P and PHS-1P) was increased. These effects were more pronounced in medium lacking inositol, and were mirrored by inositol starvation of an ino1 Delta mutant. These findings provide a metabolic explanation as to how VPA-mediated inositol depletion causes increased synthesis of PHS and further support the therapeutic relevance of inositol depletion as a bipolar disorder treatment.

CancerLocator simultaneously infers the proportions and the tissue-of-origin of tumor-derived cell-free DNA in a blood sample using genome-wide DNA methylation data. CancerLocator outperforms two established multi-class classification methods on simulations and real data, even with the low proportion of tumor-derived DNA in the cell-free DNA scenarios. CancerLocator also achieves promising results on patient plasma samples with low DNA methylation sequencing coverage.

Neuronal loss in the substantia nigra, which causes striatal dopamine deficiency, and intracellular inclusions containing aggregates of a-synuclein are the neuropathological hallmarks of Parkinson disease. Multiple other cell types throughout the central and peripheral autonomic nervous system are also involved, probably from early disease onwards. Although clinical diagnosis relies on the presence of bradykinesia and other cardinal motor features, Parkinson disease is associated with many non-motor symptoms that add to overall disability. The underlying molecular pathogenesis involves multiple pathways and mechanisms: a-synuclein proteostasis, mitochondrial function, oxidative stress, calcium homeostasis, axonal transport and neuroinflammation. Recent research into diagnostic biomarkers has taken advantage of neuroimaging in which several modalities, including PET, single-photon emission CT (SPECT) and novel MRI techniques, have been shown to aid early and differential diagnosis. Treatment of Parkinson disease is anchored on pharmacological substitution of striatal dopamine, in addition to non-dopaminergic approaches to address both motor and non-motor symptoms and deep brain stimulation for those developing intractable l-DOPA-related motor complications. Experimental therapies have tried to restore striatal dopamine by gene-based and cell-based approaches, and most recently, aggregation and cellular transport of a-synuclein have become therapeutic targets. One of the greatest current challenges is to identify markers for prodromal disease stages, which would allow novel disease-modifying therapies to be started earlier.

The objective of our study was to assess whether allopurinol use is associated with a reduction in the risk of ventricular arrhythmias (VA). Methods: We used the 5% random sample of Medicare beneficiaries from 2006-2012 to examine new allopurinol use and the risk of incident VA. Multivariable Cox regression analyses were adjusted for demographics (age, race, sex), comorbidity, cardiac medications, and conditions associated with VA. We calculated hazard ratios (HR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI). Results: Of the 28,755 episodes of new allopurinol use, 2538 were associated with incident VA (8.8%). Among patients with incident VA, 54% were male, 78% were White, 75% had gout as the underlying diagnosis, and the mean Charlson-Romano comorbidity score was 4.8. The crude incidence of VA per 1,000,000 person-days declined as the duration of allopurinol use increased: 1-180 days, 151; 181 days to 2 years, 105; and > 2 years, 85. In multivariableadjusted analyses, compared to non-use, allopurinol use was associated with lower HR of VA of 0.82 (95% CI, 0.76-0.90). Compared to allopurinol non-use, longer allopurinol use durations were significantly associated with lower multivariable-adjusted HR for VA: 1-180 days, 0.96 (95% CI, 0.85-1.08); 181 days to 2 years, 0.76 (95% CI, 0.68-0.85); and > 2 years, 0.72 (95% CI, 0.60-0.87). Multiple sensitivity analyses adjusting for cardiac conditions, anti-arrhythmic drugs and alternate definitions confirmed our findings with minimal/no attenuation of estimates. Conclusion: Allopurinol use and use duration of more than 6 months were independently associated with a lower risk of VA. Future studies need to assess the pathophysiology of this potential benefit.

TI Utilization of machine learning for prediction of post-traumatic stress: a re-examination of cortisol in the prediction and pathways to non-remitting PTSD SO TRANSLATIONAL PSYCHIATRY LA English DT Article ID MARKOV BLANKET INDUCTION; CIVILIAN TRAUMA VICTIMS; FEATURE-SELECTION; CAUSAL DISCOVERY; LOCAL CAUSAL; PART II; DISORDER; TRAJECTORIES; FKBP5; RESILIENCE AB To date, studies of biological risk factors have revealed inconsistent relationships with subsequent post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). The inconsistent signal may reflect the use of data analytic tools that are ill equipped for modeling the complex interactions between biological and environmental factors that underlay post-traumatic psychopathology. Further, using symptom-based diagnostic status as the group outcome overlooks the inherent heterogeneity of PTSD, potentially contributing to failures to replicate. To examine the potential yield of novel analytic tools, we reanalyzed data from a large longitudinal study of individuals identified following trauma in the general emergency room (ER) that failed to find a linear association between cortisol response to traumatic events and subsequent PTSD. First, latent growth mixture modeling empirically identified trajectories of post-traumatic symptoms, which then were used as the study outcome. Next, support vector machines with feature selection identified sets of features with stable predictive accuracy and built robust classifiers of trajectory membership (area under the receiver operator characteristic curve (AUC) = 0.82 (95% confidence interval (CI) = 0.80-0.85)) that combined clinical, neuroendocrine, psychophysiological and demographic information. Finally, graph induction algorithms revealed a unique path from childhood trauma via lower cortisol during ER admission, to non-remitting PTSD. Traditional general linear modeling methods then confirmed the newly revealed association, thereby delineating a specific target population for early endocrine interventions. Advanced computational approaches offer innovative ways for uncovering clinically significant, non-shared biological signals in heterogeneous samples. C1 [Galatzer-Levy, I. R.; Shalev, A.

CA SECRET CHF Investigators TI Short-Term Effects of Tolvaptan in Patients With Acute Heart Failure and Volume Overload SO JOURNAL OF THE AMERICAN COLLEGE OF CARDIOLOGY LA English DT Article DE clinical trials; diuresis; dyspnea; jugular venous pressure; vasopressin antagonism ID WORSENING RENAL-FUNCTION; VASOPRESSIN ANTAGONIST; CONTROLLED-TRIAL; CLINICAL-COURSE; ORAL TOLVAPTAN; OUTCOMES; DECONGESTION; DYSFUNCTION; CHF AB BACKGROUND In patients with acute heart failure (AHF), dyspnea relief is the most immediate goal. Renal dysfunction, diuretic resistance, and hyponatremia represent treatment impediments. OBJECTIVES It was hypothesized that the addition of tolvaptan to a background diuretic improved dyspnea early in patients selected for an enhanced vasopressin antagonism response. METHODS In a double-blind trial, patients were randomized to tolvaptan 30 mg/day or placebo. Study entry required hospitalization within the previous 36 h, active dyspnea, and any of the following: 1) estimated glomerular filtration rate <60 ml/min/1.73 m(2); 2) hyponatremia; or 3) diuretic resistance (urine output <= 125 ml/h following intravenous furosemide >= 40 mg). The primary endpoint was a 7-point change in self-assessed dyspnea at 8 and 16 h, using a novel standardized approach. RESULTS We randomized 250 patients. There was no difference in the primary endpoint of day 1 dyspnea reduction, despite significantly greater weight reduction with tolvaptan (-2.4 +/- 2.1 kg vs. -0.9 +/- 1.8 kg; p < 0.001). At day 3, dyspnea reduction was greater with tolvaptan (p = 0.01). There were 2 significant treatment-by-subgroup interactions: patients without elevated jugular venous pressure and those without ascites showed directional favorability of tolvaptan over placebo for the primary endpoint compared with patients with these findings. CONCLUSIONS Despite rapid and persistent weight loss with tolvaptan compared with placebo, in patients with AHF who were selected for greater potential benefit from vasopressin receptor inhibition, tolvaptan was not associated with greater early improvement in dyspnea. Apparent subsequent differences in dyspnea warrant further exploration of the temporal relationship between diuresis and dyspnea relief and a possible clinical role for tolvaptan.

The enzyme leukotriene A(4) hydrolase (LTA(4)H) catalyses the distal step in LTB4 synthesis and hence inhibitors of this enzyme have been actively pursued. Despite potent LTA(4)H inhibitors entering clinical trials all have failed to show efficacy. We recently identified a secondary anti-inflammatory role for LTA(4)H in degrading the neutrophil chemoattractant Pro-Gly-Pro (PGP) and rationalized that the failure of conventional LTA(4)H inhibitors may be that they inadvertently prevented PGP degradation. We demonstrate that these inhibitors do indeed fail to discriminate between the dual activities of LTA(4)H, and enable PGP accumulation in mice. Accordingly, we have developed novel compounds that potently inhibit LTB4 generation whilst leaving PGP degradation unperturbed. These novel compounds could represent a safer and superior class of LTA(4)H inhibitors for translation into the clinic.

More importantly, medical decision-making in CHD is informed by assessment of the anatomic morphology of the heart because cardiac pathology is a direct manifestation of the underlying 3D structure.

Thereis increasing evidence that platelet-endothelial interactions also contribute to early atherosclerotic plaque initiation and growth. Through these interactions, platelet-derived factors can contribute to the proinflammatory and mitogenic status of resident mural cells. Among the many putative mechanisms for platelet-endothelial interactions, increased endothelial-associated von Willebrand factor, particularly in a multimerized form, which interacts with platelet glycoproteins and integrins, is a major factor and represents a therapeutic target in early atherogenesis.

However, current hiPSCCMs retain an immature phenotype that leads to difficulties for integration with adult myocardium after transplantation. To address this, we recently utilized electrically conductive silicon nanowires (e-SiNWs) to facilitate self-assembly of hiPSC-CMs to form nanowired hiPSC cardiac spheroids. Our previous results showed addition of e-SiNWs effectively enhanced the functions of the cardiac spheroids and improved the cellular maturation of hiPSC-CMs. Here, we examined two important factors that can affect functions of the nanowired hiPSC cardiac spheroids: (1) cell number per spheroid (i.e., size of the spheroids), and (2) the electrical conductivity of the e-SiNWs. To examine the first factor, we prepared hiPSC cardiac spheroids with four different sizes by varying cell number per spheroid (similar to-0.5k, similar to 1k, similar to 3k, similar to 7k cells/ spheroid). Spheroids with similar to 3k cells/spheroid was found to maximize the beneficial effects of the 3D spheroid microenvironment. This result was explained with a semi-quantitative theory that considers two competing factors: 1) the improved 3D cell-cell adhesion, and 2) the reduced oxygen supply to the center of spheroids with the increase of cell number. Also, the critical role of electrical conductivity of silicon nanowires has been confirmed in improving tissue function of hiPSC cardiac spheroids. These results lay down a solid foundation to develop suitable nanowired hiPSC cardiac spheroids as an innovative cell delivery system to treat cardiovascular diseases. Statement of Significance Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death and disability worldwide. Due to the limited regenerative capacity of adult human hearts, human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes (hiPSC-CMs) have received significant attention because they provide a patient specific cell source to regenerate damaged hearts. Despite the progress, current human hiPSC-CMs retain an immature phenotype that leads to difficulties for integration with adult myocardium after transplantation. To address this, we recently utilized electrically conductive silicon nanowires (e-SiNWs) to facilitate self-assembly of hiPSC-CMs to form nanowired hiPSC cardiac spheroids. Our previous results showed addition of eSiNWs effectively enhanced the functions of the cardiac spheroids and improved the cellular maturation of hiPSC-CMs. In this manuscript, we examined the effects of two important factors on the functions of nanowired hiPSC cardiac spheroids: (1) cell number per spheroid (i.e., size of the spheroids), and (2) the electrical conductivity of the e-SiNWs. The results from these studies will allow for the development of suitable nanowired hiPSC cardiac spheroids to effectively deliver hiPSC-CMs for heart repair. (c) 2017 Acta Materialia Inc.

TI Ferumoxytol MRA for transcatheter aortic valve replacement planning with renal insufficiency SO INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF CARDIOLOGY LA English DT Article ID CARDIOVASCULAR MAGNETIC-RESONANCE; ANGIOGRAPHY; ECHOCARDIOGRAPHY; REGURGITATION; IMPLANTATION; ACCURACY; CT AB Background: Computed tomography angiography (CTA) is the test of choice for pre-procedure imaging of trans-catheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) candidates. The iodinated contrast required, however, increases the risk of renal dysfunction in patients with pre-existing renal failure. Ferumoxytol is a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contrast agent that can be used with renal failure. Its long vascular resonance time allows gated MRA sequences that approach CTA in image quality. We present respiratory and cardiac gated MRA enabled by ferumoxytol that can be post-processed in an analogous fashion to CTA. Methods: Seven patients with renal failure presenting for TAVR were imaged with respiratory and cardiac gated MRA at 3T using ferumoxtyol for contrast. Aortic annulus, root and peripheral access dimensions were calculated in a fashion identical to that used for CTA. Of these, 6 patients underwent a TAVR procedure and 5 had intraoperative valve assessment with transesophageal echocardiograph (TEE) using standard clinical protocols that employed both two-and three-dimensional techniques. Results: Good correlation between MRA aortic annulus measurements and those from TEE were shown in 5 patients with mean annulus area of 392.4 mm(2) (290-470 range) versus 374.1 mm(2) (285-440 range), with a pairwise correlation coefficient of 0.92, p = 0.029. All patients received Sapien valve implants (one 20 mm, three 23 mm, and two 26 mm valves). Access decisions were guided by MRA with no complications. Annulus sizing resulted in no greater than trace/mild aortic regurgitation in all patients. Conclusions: Ferumoxytol MRA is a safe alternative to CTA in patients with renal failure for pre-TAVR analysis of the aortic root and peripheral access. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ireland Ltd.

TI Patient Endorsement of the Outcome Measures in Rheumatology (OMERACT) Total Joint Replacement (TJR) clinical trial draft core domain set SO BMC MUSCULOSKELETAL DISORDERS LA English DT Article ID TOTAL KNEE ARTHROPLASTY; TOTAL SHOULDER ARTHROPLASTY; TOTAL ELBOW ARTHROPLASTY; QUALITY-OF-LIFE; PAIN OUTCOMES; INPATIENT SAMPLE; FILTER 2.0; TOTAL HIP; ARTHRITIS; TRENDS AB Background: A patient- and surgeon-Delphi-derived Outcome Measures in Rheumatology (OMERACT) draft core domain set for total joint arthroplasty (TJR) trials was recently developed. Our objective was to obtain further patient stakeholder endorsement of draft core domain set for TJR clinical trials. Methods: We surveyed two patient groups: (1) OMERACT patient partners; and (2) patients who had undergone hip or knee TJR. Patients received an introductory email with explanations about the core domain set and instructions to rate the core domains, i.e., important aspects, of OMERACT TJR clinical trial draft core domain set. Rating was on a nominal scale, where 1-3 indicated a domain of limited importance, 4-6 an important, but not critical domain, and 7-9 a critical domain. We used Mann-Whitney test (a non-parametric test) to compare the distribution of ratings between the two groups. Results: Thirty one survey participants from the OMERACT patient partner group and 118 knee/hip TJR patients responded with response rates of 66 and 80%, respectively. Majority of the survey respondents were female, 87 vs. 53%, and were 55 years or older, 57 vs. 94%. Median (interquartile range [IQR]) scores for six core domains by OMERACT and knee/hip TJR patient groups were, respectively: pain, 8 [8, 9] and 9 [8, 9]; function, 9 [8, 9] and 9 [8, 9]; patient satisfaction, 8 [8, 9] and 8 [7, 9]; revision surgery, 7 [7, 8] and 7 [5, 9]; adverse events, 8 [7, 9] and 8 [6, 9]; and death, 9 [6, 9] and 9 [4, 9]. No statistically significant differences in rating were noted for any of the six core domains between the two groups (p >= 0.31). Among the additional domains, ratings for patient participation did not differ by group (p = 0.98), but ratings for cost were significantly different (p = 0.005). Patients provided qualitative feedback regarding core domains, and did not propose any modifications to the draft core domain set. Conclusions: Two separate patient stakeholder groups endorsed the OMERACT TJR draft core domain set for TJR trials.

TI Comparing identified and statistically significant lipids and polar metabolites in 15-year old serum and dried blood spot samples for longitudinal studies SO RAPID COMMUNICATIONS IN MASS SPECTROMETRY LA English DT Article ID MASS-SPECTROMETRY; FATTY-ACIDS; PROTEOMICS DATA; FILTER-PAPER; TERM STABILITY; ION MOBILITY; DEGREES-C; FRAGMENTATION; LIPOPROTEINS; METABOLOMICS AB RATIONALE: The use of dried blood spots (DBS) has many advantages over traditional plasma and serum samples such as the smaller blood volume required, storage at room temperature, and ability to sample in remote locations. However, understanding the robustness of different analytes in DBS samples is essential, especially in older samples collected for longitudinal studies. METHODS: Here we analyzed the stability of polar metabolites and lipids in DBS samples collected in 2000-2001 and stored at room temperature. The identified and statistically significant molecules were then compared to matched serum samples stored at-80 degrees C to determine if the DBS samples could be effectively used in a longitudinal study following metabolic disease. RESULTS: A total of 400 polar metabolites and lipids were identified in the serum and DBS samples using gas chromatograph/mass spectrometry (GC/MS), liquid chromatography (LC)/MS, and LC/ion mobility spectrometry-MS (LC/IMS-MS). The identified polar metabolites overlapped well between the sample types, though only one statistically significant metabolite was conserved in a case-control study of older diabetic males with low amounts of high-density lipoproteins and high body mass indices, triacylglycerides and glucose levels when compared to non-diabetic patients with normal levels, indicating that degradation in the DBS samples affects polar metabolite quantitation. Differences in the lipid identifications indicated that some oxidation occurs in the DBS samples. However, 36 statistically significant lipids correlated in both sample types. CONCLUSIONS: The difference in the number of statistically significant polar metabolites and lipids indicated that the lipids did not degrade to as great of a degree as the polar metabolites in the DBS samples and lipid quantitation was still possible.

TI Role of N-Methyl-D-Aspartate Receptors in Action-Based Predictive Coding Deficits in Schizophrenia SO BIOLOGICAL PSYCHIATRY LA English DT Article DE Electroencephalography; Ketamine; N-methyl-D-aspartate glutamate receptor; Predictive coding; Schizophrenia; Speech motor control ID COROLLARY DISCHARGE DYSFUNCTION; AUDITORY SENSORY MEMORY; MISMATCH NEGATIVITY GENERATION; SUBUNIT GENE GRIN2B; HEALTHY-VOLUNTEERS; SPEECH PRODUCTION; SYNAPTIC PLASTICITY; NEUROPHYSIOLOGICAL EVIDENCE; COGNITIVE DEFICITS; PSYCHOTIC SYMPTOMS AB BACKGROUND: Recent theoretical models of schizophrenia posit that dysfunction of the neural mechanisms subserving predictive coding contributes to symptoms and cognitive deficits, and this dysfunction is further posited to result from N-methyl-D-aspartate glutamate receptor (NMDAR) hypofunction. Previously, by examining auditory cortical responses to self-generated speech sounds, we demonstrated that predictive coding during vocalization is disrupted in schizophrenia. To test the hypothesized contribution of NMDAR hypofunction to this disruption, we examined the effects of the NMDAR antagonist, ketamine, on predictive coding during vocalization in healthy volunteers and compared them with the effects of schizophrenia. METHODS: In two separate studies, the N1 component of the event-related potential elicited by speech sounds during vocalization (talk) and passive playback(listen) were compared to assess the degree of N1 suppression during vocalization, a putative measure of auditory predictive coding. In the crossover study, 31 healthy volunteers completed two randomly ordered test days, a saline day and a ketamine day. Event- related potentials during the talk/ listen task were obtained before infusion and during infusion on both days, and N1 amplitudes were compared across days. In the case- control study, N1 amplitudes from 34 schizophrenia patients and 33 healthy control volunteers were compared. RESULTS: N1 suppression to self produced vocalizations was significantly and similarly diminished by ketamine (Cohen's d= 1.14) and schizophrenia(Cohen's d=.85). CONCLUSIONS: Disruption of NMDARs causes dysfunction in predictive coding during vocalization in a manner similar to the dysfunction observed in schizophrenia patients, consistent with the theorized contribution of NMDAR hypofunction to predictive coding deficits in schizophrenia.

TI Microstructural white matter alterations in preclinical Alzheimer's disease detected using free water elimination diffusion tensor imaging SO PLOS ONE LA English DT Article ID MILD COGNITIVE IMPAIRMENT; FIBER TRACTOGRAPHY; CORPUS-CALLOSUM; HEALTHY-ADULTS; CSF; BRAIN; DEMENTIA; MRI; SCHIZOPHRENIA; DEGENERATION AB Brain changes associated with Alzheimer's disease (AD) begin decades before disease diagnosis. While beta-amyloid plaques and neurofibrillary tangles are defining features of AD, neuronal loss and synaptic pathology are closely related to the cognitive dysfunction. Brain imaging methods that are tuned to assess degeneration of myelinated nerve fibers in the brain (collectively called white matter) include diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) and related techniques, and are expected to shed light on disease-related loss of structural connectivity. Participants (N = 70, ages 47-76 years) from the Wisconsin Registry for Alzheimer's Prevention study underwent DTI and hybrid diffusion imaging to determine a free-water elimination (FWE-DTI) model. The study assessed the extent to which preclinical AD pathology affects brain white matter. Preclinical AD pathology was determined using cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) biomarkers. The sample was enriched for AD risk (APOE epsilon 4 and parental history of AD). AD pathology assessed by CSF analyses was significantly associated with altered microstructure on both DTI and FWE-DTI. Affected regions included frontal, parietal, and especially temporal white matter. The f-value derived from the FWE-DTI model appeared to be the most sensitive to the relationship between the CSF AD biomarkers and microstructural alterations in white matter. These findings suggest that white matter degeneration is an early pathological feature of AD that may have utility both for early disease detection and as outcome measures for clinical trials. More complex models of microstructural diffusion properties including FWE-DTI may provide increased sensitivity to early brain changes associated with AD over standard DTI.

TI Tryptophan Metabolism in Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease Secondary to Type 2 Diabetes: Relationship to Inflammatory Markers SO INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF TRYPTOPHAN RESEARCH LA English DT Article DE Chronic kidney disease; indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase 1; inflammatory cytokines; kynurenine; tryptophan; type 2 diabetes ID KYNURENINE PATHWAY ENZYMES; STAGE RENAL-DISEASE; INDOLEAMINE 2,3-DIOXYGENASE; AMINO-ACID; QUINOLINIC ACID; NEPHROPATHY; PROGRESSION; PREDICTION; PLASMA; IDO2 AB OBJECTIVE : Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is the primary case of chronic kidney disease (CKD). Inflammation is associated with metabolic dysregulation in patients with T2D and CKD. Tryptophan (TRP) metabolism may have relevance to the CKD outcomes and associated symptoms. We investigated the relationships of TRP metabolism with inflammatory markers in patients with T2D and CKD. METHODS: Data were collected from a well-characterized cohort of type 2 diabetic individuals with all stages of CKD, including patients on hemodialysis. Key TRP metabolites (kynurenine [KYN], kynurenic acid [KYNA], and quinolinic acid [QA]), proinflammatory cytokines (tumor necrosis factor-alpha [TNF-alpha] and interleukin-6 [IL-6]), and C-reactive protein were measured in plasma. The KYN/TRP ratio was utilized as a surrogate marker for indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase 1 (IDO1) enzyme activity. RESULTS : There was a significant inverse association between circulating TRP level and stages of CKD (P < 0.0001). Downstream bioactive TRP metabolites KYN, KYNA, and QA were positively and robustly correlated with the severity of kidney disease (P < 0.0001). In multiple linear regression, neither TNF-alpha nor IL-6 was independently related to KYN/TRP ratio after adjusting for estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). Only TNF-alpha was independently related to KYN after taking into account the effect of eGFR. CONCLUSIONS: Chronic kidney disease secondary to T2D may be associated with accumulation of toxic TRP metabolites due to both inflammation and impaired kidney function. Future longitudinal studies to determine whether the accumulation of KYN directly contributes to CKD progression and associated symptoms in patients with T2D are warranted.

TI Using Getting To Outcomes to facilitate the use of an evidence-based practice in VA homeless programs: a cluster-randomized trial of an implementation support strategy SO IMPLEMENTATION SCIENCE LA English DT Article DE Implementation support; Co-occurring disorders; Fidelity; Training; Technical assistance ID TREATMENT ENGAGEMENT INTERVENTION; SUBSTANCE USE DISORDERS; HEALTH-PROMOTION; CONSOLIDATED FRAMEWORK; MENTAL ILLNESSES; HOUSING 1ST; INDIVIDUALS; SERVICES; ELEMENTS; IMPROVE AB Background: Incorporating evidence-based integrated treatment for dual disorders into typical care settings has been challenging, especially among those serving Veterans who are homeless. This paper presents an evaluation of an effort to incorporate an evidence-based, dual disorder treatment called Maintaining Independence and Sobriety Through Systems Integration, Outreach, and Networking-Veterans Edition (MISSION-Vet) into case management teams serving Veterans who are homeless, using an implementation strategy called Getting To Outcomes (GTO). Methods: This Hybrid Type III, cluster-randomized controlled trial assessed the impact of GTO over and above MISSION-Vet Implementation as Usual (IU). Both conditions received standard MISSION-Vet training and manuals. The GTO group received an implementation manual, training, technical assistance, and data feedback. The study occurred in teams at three large VA Medical Centers over 2 years. Within each team, existing sub-teams (case managers and Veterans they serve) were the clusters randomly assigned. The trial assessed MISSION-Vet services delivered and collected via administrative data and implementation barriers and facilitators, via semi-structured interview. Results: No case managers in the IU group initiated MISSION-Vet while 68% in the GTO group did. Seven percent of Veterans with case managers in the GTO group received at least one MISSION-Vet session. Most case managers appreciated the MISSION-Vet materials and felt the GTO planning meetings supported using MISSION-Vet. Case manager interviews also showed that MISSION-Vet could be confusing; there was little involvement from leadership after their initial agreement to participate; the data feedback system had a number of difficulties; and case managers did not have the resources to implement all aspects of MISSION-Vet. Conclusions: This project shows that GTO-like support can help launch new practices but that multiple implementation facilitators are needed for successful execution of a complex evidence-based program like MISSION-Vet.

TI Th17 cells are refractory to senescence and retain robust antitumor activity after long-term ex vivo expansion SO JCI INSIGHT LA English DT Article ID CD8(+) T-CELLS; TUMOR-INFILTRATING LYMPHOCYTES; ADOPTIVE IMMUNOTHERAPY; METASTATIC MELANOMA; ESTABLISHED MELANOMA; CANCER-IMMUNOTHERAPY; TRANSFER THERAPY; TELOMERE LENGTH; HUMAN EFFECTOR; MEMORY CELLS AB Adoptive immunotherapy for solid tumors relies on infusing large numbers of T cells to mediate successful antitumor responses in patients. While long-term rapid-expansion protocols (REPs) produce sufficient numbers of CD8(+) T cells for treatment, they also cause decline in the cell's therapeutic fitness. In contrast, we discovered that IL-17-producing CD4(+) T cells (Th17 cells) do not require REPs to expand 5,000-fold over 3 weeks. Also, unlike Th1 cells, Th17 cells do not exhibit hallmarks of senescence or apoptosis, retaining robust antitumor efficacy in vivo. Three-week-expanded Th17 cells eliminated melanoma as effectively as Th17 cells expanded for 1 week when infused in equal numbers into mice. However, treating mice with large recalcitrant tumors required the infusion of all cells generated after 2 or 3 weeks of expansion, while the cell yield obtained after 1-week expansion was insufficient. Long-term-expanded Th17 cells also protected mice from tumor rechallenge including lung metastasis. Importantly, 2-week-expanded human chimeric antigen receptor-positive (CAR(+)) Th17 cells also retained their ability to regress human mesothelioma, while CAR(+) Th1 cells did not. Our results indicate that tumor-reactive Th17 cells are an effective cell therapy for cancer, remaining uncompromised when expanded for a long duration owing to their resistance to senescence.

QT interval shortens with increasing heart rate and correction for this effect is necessary for meaningful QT interval assessment. We aim to improve current methods of correcting the QT interval during atrial fibrillation (AF). Digitized Holter recordings were analyzed from patients with AF. Models of QT interval dependence on RR intervals were tested by sorting the beats into 20 bins based on corrected RR interval and assessing ST-T variability within the bins. Signal-averaging within bins was performed to determine QT/RR dependence. Data from 30 patients (29 men, 69.3 7.3 years) were evaluated. QT behavior in AF is well described by a linear function (slope-0.19) of steady-state corrected RR interval. Corrected RR is calculated as a combination of an exponential weight function with time-constant of 2 minutes and a smaller "immediate response" component (weight- 0.18). This model performs significantly (p<0.0001) better than models based on instantaneous RR interval only including Bazett and Fridericia. It also outperforms models based on shorter time-constants and other previously proposed models. This model may improve detection of repolarization delay in AF. QT response to heart rate changes in AF is similar to previously published QT dynamics during atrial pacing and in sinus rhythm.

Although the pelvic examination is a common part of the physical examination, it is unclear whether performing screening pelvic examinations in asymptomatic women has a significant effect on disease morbidity and mortality. OBJECTIVE To issue a new US Preventive Services Task Force(USPSTF) recommendation on screening for gynecologic conditions with pelvic examination for conditions other than cervical cancer, gonorrhea, and chlamydia, for which the USPSTF has already made specific recommendations. EVIDENCE REVIEW The USPSTF reviewed the evidence on the accuracy, benefits, and potential harms of performing screening pelvic examinations in asymptomatic, nonpregnant adult women 18 years and older who are not at increased risk for any specific gynecologic condition. FINDINGS Overall, the USPSTF found inadequate evidence on screening pelvic examinations for the early detection and treatment of a range of gynecologic conditions in asymptomatic, nonpregnant adult women. CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATION The USPSTF concludes that the current evidence is insufficient to assess the balance of benefits and harms of performing screening pelvic examinations in asymptomatic, nonpregnant adult women. (I statement) This statement does not apply to specific disorders for which the USPSTF already recommends screening (ie, screening for cervical cancer with a Papanicolaou smear, screening for gonorrhea and chlamydia).

TI Differential induction of anti-V3 crown antibodies with cradle- and ladle-binding modes in response to HIV-1 envelope vaccination SO VACCINE LA English DT Article DE HIV; HIV envelope; V3; Mimotopes; Antibodies ID V3 LOOP; TYPE-1 GP120; NEUTRALIZING ANTIBODIES; V3-SPECIFIC ANTIBODIES; HIV-1-INFECTED HUMANS; MONOCLONAL-ANTIBODIES; BROAD NEUTRALIZATION; IMMUNE-RESPONSE; INFECTION; EPITOPES AB The V3 loop in the HIV envelope gp120 is one of the immunogenic sites targeted by Abs. The V3 crown in particular has conserved structural elements recognized by cross-reactive neutralizing Abs, indicating its potential contribution in protection against HIV. Crystallographic analyses of anti-V3 crown mAbs in complex with the V3 peptides have revealed that these mAbs recognize the conserved sites on the V3 crown via two distinct strategies: a cradle-binding mode (V3C) and a ladle-binding (V3L) mode. However, almost all of the anti-V3 crown mAbs studied in the past were isolated from chronically HIV-infected individuals. The extents to which the two types of anti-V3 crown Abs are generated by vaccination are unknown. This study analyzed the prevalence of V3C-type and V3L-type Ab responses in HIV-infected individuals and in HIV envelope-immunized humans and animals using peptide mimotopes that distinguish the two Ab types. The results show that both V3L-type and V3C-type Abs were generated by the vast majority of chronically HIV-infected humans, although the V3L-type were more prevalent. In contrast, only one of the two V3 Ab types was elicited in vaccinated humans or animal models, irrespective of HIV-1 envelope clades, envelope constructs (oligomeric or monomeric), and protocols (DNA plus protein or protein alone) used for vaccinations. The V3C-type Abs were produced by vaccinated humans. macaques, and rabbits, whereas the V3L-type Abs were made by mice. The V3C-type and V3L-type Abs generated by the vaccinations were able to mediate virus neutralization. These data indicate the restricted repertoires and the species-specific differences in the functional V3-specific Ab responses induced by the HIV envelope vaccines. The study implies the need for improving immunogen designs and vaccination strategies to broaden the diversity of Abs in order to target the different conserved epitopes in the V3 loop and, by extension, in the entire HIV envelope.

Musculoskeletal Ultrasound (MSUS) has higher sensitivity than physical examination for swollen joints (SJ). The purpose of this study was to determine the joint-specific association between power Doppler (PDUS) and clinical SJ in RA across body mass index (BMI) categories. Methods: Cross-sectional clinical and laboratory data were collected on 43 RA patients. PDUS was performed on 9 joints (wrist, metacarpalphalangeal 2-5, proximal interphalgeal 2/3 and metatarsalphalangeal 2/5). DAS28 and clinical disease activity index (CDAI) were calculated. Patients were categorized by BMI: <25, 25-30, and >30. Demographic and clinical characteristics were compared across BMI groups with Kruskal-Wallis test and chi-square tests. Joint-level associations between PDUS and clinically SJ were evaluated with mixed effects logistic regression models. Results: While demographics and clinically-determined disease activity were similar among BMI groups, PDUS scores significantly differed (p = 0.02). Using PDUS activity as the reference standard for synovitis and clinically SJ as the test, the positive predictive value of SJ was significantly lower in higher BMI groups (0.71 in BMI < 25, 0.58 in BMI 25-30 and 0.44 in BMI < 30) (p = 0.02). The logistic model demonstrated that increased BMI category resulted in decreased likelihood of PDUS positivity (OR 0.52, p = 0.03). Conclusions: This study suggests that in an obese RA patient, a clinically assessed SJ is less likely to represent true synovitis (as measured by PDUS). Disease activity in obese RA patients may be overestimated by CDAI/DAS28 calculations and clinicians when considering change in therapy.

CA TRACK-TBI Investigators TI Uncovering precision phenotype-biomarker associations in traumatic brain injury using topological data analysis SO PLOS ONE LA English DT Article ID COMMON DATA ELEMENTS; TRANSFORMING RESEARCH; CLINICAL KNOWLEDGE; POLYMORPHISM; COMT; CLASSIFICATION; PREDICTION; PROTEIN AB Background Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a complex disorder that is traditionally stratified based on clinical signs and symptoms. Recent imaging and molecular biomarker innovations provide unprecedented opportunities for improved TBI precision medicine, incorporating patho-ana-tomical and molecular mechanisms. Complete integration of these diverse data for TBI diag-nosis and patient stratification remains an unmet challenge. Methods and findings The Transforming Research and Clinical Knowledge in Traumatic Brain Injury (TRACK-TBI) Pilot multicenter study enrolled 586 acute TBI patients and collected diverse common data elements (TBI-CDEs) across the study population, including imaging, genetics, and clinical outcomes. We then applied topology-based data-driven discovery to identify natural sub-groups of patients, based on the TBI-CDEs collected. Our hypothesis was two-fold: 1) A machine learning tool known as topological data analysis (TDA) would reveal data-driven patterns in patient outcomes to identify candidate biomarkers of recovery, and 2) TDA-iden-tified biomarkers would significantly predict patient outcome recovery after TBI using more traditional methods of univariate statistical tests. TDA algorithms organized and mapped the data of TBI patients in multidimensional space, identifying a subset of mild TBI patients with a specific multivariate phenotype associated with unfavorable outcome at 3 and 6 months after injury. Further analyses revealed that this patient subset had high rates of post-trau-matic stress disorder (PTSD), and enrichment in several distinct genetic polymorphisms associated with cellular responses to stress and DNA damage (PARP1), and in striatal dopamine processing (ANKK1, COMT, DRD2). Conclusions TDA identified a unique diagnostic subgroup of patients with unfavorable outcome after mild TBI that were significantly predicted by the presence of specific genetic polymorphisms. Machine learning methods such as TDA may provide a robust method for patient stratifica-tion and treatment planning targeting identified biomarkers in future clinical trials in TBI patients.

TI Veteran Preferences Regarding Wireless Management of Positive Airway Pressure for Obstructive Sleep Apnea at a Tertiary Health-Care System SO RESPIRATORY CARE LA English DT Article DE sleep apnea syndrome; CPAP; patient preference; telehealth; telemedicine; e-health; home health monitoring; technology ID RANDOMIZED CONTROLLED-TRIAL; CARDIOVASCULAR-DISEASE; HIGH-RISK; ADHERENCE; PROGRAM; POPULATION; ADULTS; DIAGNOSIS; MEDICINE; ACCESS AB BACKGROUND: Timely monitoring of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) therapy can be a challenge amid conflicting pressures of rising patient volume and shortage of sleep medicine providers. Positive airway pressure (PAP) devices with wireless modem technology have the potential to improve patient access to care and streamline work load, yet little is known about patient attitudes toward telehealth integration among veterans with sleep apnea. As part of a larger quality improvement initiative at the Veterans Affairs (VA) Puget Sound Health Care System, we elicited veterans' preferences toward modem versus traditional PAP data download, including patient attitudes and factors affecting those preferences. METHODS: We conducted an anonymous survey of veterans without previous CPAP experience presenting for initial device setup and training at VA Puget Sound PAP clinics. Surveys assessed subject demographics, PAP download preferences (modem vs mail), and Likert- type scale ratings of importance placed on factors including convenience and information privacy. Using multinomial logistic regression, we examined the association between convenience rating and download preference, adjusting for information privacy rating, age, and commute time. RESULTS: Of 444 surveys analyzed, respondents were primarily male with a mean age of 52 y. Most respondents reported taking >= 30 min to commute to the PAP clinic. Convenience was rated as the most important factor affecting download preferences. Veteran preferences regarding PAP download method were mixed, with 47% preferring modem, 38% preferring memory card mail- in, and 15% undecided. A higher rating of convenience was significantly associated with modem preference, both before and after adjustment for information privacy rating, commute time, and veteran age (adjusted relative risk ratio 1.67, P <.001, 95% CI 1.40-1.99). CONCLUSIONS: PAP data download preferences were mixed among new veteran users. Veterans placed a high value on the potentially competing concerns of convenience and information privacy. Veterans preferring modem factored convenience as important in their decision making, independent of privacy concerns.

Exercise training or intervention to increase physical activity may ameliorate poor physical functioning and frailty, and even may improve survival in patients with CKD. Although exercise interventions improve outcomes across the spectrum of CKD, including patients treated with dialysis, patients treated with dialysis face barriers to exercise that patients with predialysis CKD do not. Rehabilitation at earlier stages of CKD (or prehabilitation before dialysis) might be more beneficial than not addressing the decreasing physical functioning and low physical activity until patients are receiving dialysis. This review summarizes available literature on frailty in the CKD and end-stage renal disease population, including exercise interventions and the limited evidence for prehabilitation as a strategy.

We evaluated whether ulcer severity at presentation predicts mortality. Methods: Patients from a national, retrospective, cohort of veterans with type 2 diabetes who developed incident diabetic foot ulcers between January 1, 2006 and September 1, 2010, were followed until death or the end of the study period, January 1, 2012. Ulcers were characterized as early stage, osteomyelitis, or gangrene at presentation. Cox proportional hazard regression identified independent predictors of death, controlling for comorbidities, laboratory parameters, and healthcare utilization. Results: 66,323 veterans were included in the cohort and followed for a mean of 27.7 months: 1-, 2-, and 5-year survival rates were 80.80%, 69.01% and 28.64%, respectively. Compared to early stage ulcers, gangrene was associated with an increased risk of mortality (HR 1.70, 95% C11.57-1.83, p < 0.001). The magnitude of this effect was greater than diagnosed vascular disease, i.e., coronary artery disease, peripheral arterial disease, or stroke. Conclusion: Initial diabetic foot ulcer severity is a more significant predictor of subsequent mortality than coronary artery disease, peripheral arterial disease, or stroke. Unrecognized or under-estimated vascular disease and/or sepsis secondary to gangrene should be explored as possible causal explanations. (C) 2017 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

Women's Changes After Participation in a Longitudinal Study About Intimate Partner Violence SO FAMILIES SYSTEMS & HEALTH LA English DT Article DE spouse abuse; battered women; domestic violence; longitudinal studies; qualitative research ID SURVIVORS; DYNAMICS AB Introduction: The tensions between risk and benefit in research are particularly evident in studies about intimate partner violence. Recalling and relating traumatic experiences may deepen posttraumatic stress or relieve the burden of terrible events long borne in secret. In this article, we examine the effects of study participation in a longitudinal investigation of intimate partner violence using both qualitative and quantitative data. Method: Researchers enrolled 200 women in moderately violent intimate relationships and asked them to report about their relationships every day for 12 weeks. Daily, participants telephoned an automated survey and responded to 34 survey questions. They also completed baseline and end-of-study surveys and maintained telephone contact with 1 researcher weekly. Forty-2 participants completed qualitative end-of-study interviews to describe their relationships and their experiences in the study. Results: Over 12 weeks, participants showed improvements in coping strategies, hope, and mental health, and increased readiness to leave their partners. In qualitative interviews, women reported gaining insight, feeling better emotionally, making behavioral changes, finding comfort in daily surveys, learning resources for help, and taking action to improve their lives. Fourteen percent left their partners by end-of-study; 35% sought counseling. Discussion: The study's daily survey invited the participant to become more reflective about her relationship, which changed how she saw herself and her situation. The study methods also included weekly conversations with a compassionate researcher, allowing women to tell their stories. These 2 strategies may be incorporated into brief interventions for intimate partner violence in primary care settings.

Methods: 35 military veterans-23 with blast mTBI and PTSD (blast mTBI/PTSD) and 12 with PTSD only participated in the study. Whole plane MRSI data including N-acetyl aspartate (NAA) and choline (Ch) were acquired at 7T for the hippocampus. Concurrent cognitive and neuromotor data were collected using established assessments. General linear models (GLMs) with Bonferroni correction were used to compare the two groups on NAA/Ch ratios across regions of the hippocampus. Spearman's correlations were used to examine correlations between NAA/Ch and cognitive and neuromotor impairment. Results: The NAA/Ch results for the left hippocampus were lower in the blast mTBI/PTSD group than the PTSD-only group. The blast mTBI/PTSD group also scored worse on the WAIS-IV-vocabulary. Significant correlations between NAA/Ch and neuromotor outcomes-including vestibular impairment-were supported. Conclusions: Combined MRSI and cognitive and neuromotor data may help inform more objective and accurate diagnoses and effective treatments for patients with blast mTBI and PTSD.

ID SLEEP-APNEA; INTERNET; THERAPY; USERS; CARE AB Study objectives: To examine the usability of positive airway pressure (PAP) devices and its association with PAP adherence among older adults with sleep-disordered breathing. Methods: We mailed questionnaires to patients aged >= 65 years prescribed PAP therapy during the prior 36 months from two large healthcare systems. Survey participants completed the Usability of Sleep Apnea Equipment-Positive Airway Pressure (USE-PAP) questionnaire, which assessed the usability of their PAP device. Other questionnaire items included demographics and self-rated health. We also abstracted adherence data (mean nightly hours of PAP use available from one site) and interface type from the electronic health record. Results: Five hundred sixty-four patients completed the survey (response rate = 33%). The mean USE-PAP score (0 = best to 100 = worst) was 20 (SD +/- 20). Mean duration of PAP use (available in 189 respondents) was 5.2 hours per night (SD +/- 2.0). In a nested regression model predicting nightly hours of PAP use, a 10-point (0.5 SD) increase in USE-PAP score corresponded to a 0.37 hour/night reduction in PAP use. The model including the USE-PAP score explained a significant proportion (R-2 = 15%) of the variation in nightly hours of PAP use above and beyond demographics, self-reported health, and interface type (R-2 = 12%). Conclusions: Our results demonstrate that PAP usability varies among older patients and is associated with PAP adherence, above and beyond other predictors of adherence. These results support measuring and improving PAP usability to further improve PAP adherence for older patients.

We have previously demonstrated that suppression of exosomes at the distal tumor site of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) ablated the development of salivary biomarker profile. Here, we explore the function of salivary exosomes from tumor-bearing mice in immune surveillance. We provide evidence that salivary exosomes from mice with PDA Cexhibit a suppressive effect that results in reduced tumor-killing capacity by NK cells. Salivary exosomes from mice with PDAC where pancreatic tumors were engineered to suppress exosome biogenesis failed to suppress NK cell cytotoxic potential against tumor cells, as opposed to salivary exosomes from mice with PDAC with normal tumor exosome biogenesis. These results reveal an important and previously unknown mechanism of antitumor immune regulation and provide new in sights into our understanding of the alterations of this biofluid during tumor development.

It is well established that hyperphosphatemia is associated with increased cardiovascular events and mortality in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). However, there are no randomized controlled trials that demonstrate a clear benefit on hard outcomes in lowering serum phosphate levels to recommended targets in the CKD or dialysis population. In addition, while calcium-based phosphate binders have traditionally been the standard of care in the treatment of hyperphosphatemia, data regarding the increased risk of vascular mineralization continues to emerge. Clinicians continue to search for new phosphate-lowering therapies as well as investigate novel nutritional perspectives. The Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes is currently revising the guidelines on phosphate goals in CKD. This review will outline the history of phosphate targets and phosphate binders, and explore innovative phosphate-lowering therapies. Based on current data, clinicians moving forward should continue to treat end-stage renal disease patients with hyperphosphatemia based on individual risk factors for vascular mineralization.

These compounds contain fluorescein (FAM) on the 5' arm of the bRNA that is quenched by a dabcyl moiety on the 2 arm. Dbrl-mediated hydrolysis of the 2',S' linkage induces a large increase in fluorescence, providing a convenient assay for Dbrl hydrolysis. We show that unlabeled bRNAs with non-native 2',5'- phosphodiester linkages, such as phosphoramidate or phosphorothioate, can inhibit Dbrl-mediated debranching with IC50 values in the low nanomolar range. In addition to measuring kinetic parameters of the debranching enzyme, these probes can be used for high throughput screening (HTS) of chemical libraries with the aim of identifying Dbrl inhibitors, compounds that may be useful in treating neurodegenerative diseases and retroviral infections.

Whereas informant reports in AD dementia may be modulated by the nature of participant-informant relationships, whether informant type affects reporting at earlier disease stages is less certain. We sought to determine the effects of participant-informant relationships on informant assessments of quality of life (QOL), functional abilities, and behavioral symptoms in individuals with normal cognition (NC), mild cognitive impairment (MCI), and mild-to-moderate AD dementia. Design: Cross-sectional. Setting: Easton Center for Alzheimer Disease Research at the University of California, Los Angeles. Participants: A total of 399 individuals who met criteria for NC (N = 100), MCI [amnestic (N = 125) and nonamnestic (N = 61)], and AD (N = 113). Participants were subdivided into groups based on informantparticipant relationships (spouse versus other). Measurements: We examined informant effects on the Quality of Life-Alzheimer's Disease (QOL-AD) scale, the Functional Activities Questionnaire (FAQ), and the Neuropsychiatric Inventory (NPI). Results: After adjustments for demographic and cognitive factors, spouse informants reported higher participant QOL in the amnestic MCI and AD groups than did other informants. No informant effects were seen on QOL-AD ratings in the nonamnestic MCI or NC groups or on the FAQ or NPI in the MCI andAD groups. Conclusions: Participant-informant relationships may modulate informant responses on subjective measures such as the QOL-AD in both incipient and clinical AD. Clinical trials that use informant measures may need to address these effects. C1 [Lin, Amy] Univ Southern Calif, Keck Sch Med, Los Angeles, CA USA.

Wireless-enabled pill bottles have created the opportunity to monitor medication adherence in real time. Reminders may help patients with poor memory or organization. Provision of adherence data to providers may motivate patients to improve adherence and help providers identify adherence barriers. Study Design: Randomized controlled trial. Setting & Participants: Kidney transplant recipients (n = 120) at a single center. Intervention: Participants were provided wireless pill bottles to store tacrolimus and record bottle openings. Participants were randomly assigned 1:1:1 to adherence monitoring with customized reminders (including alarms, texts, telephone calls, and/or e-mails), monitoring with customized reminders plus provider notification (every 2 weeks, providers received notification if adherence decreased to <90% during that period), or wireless pill bottle use alone (control). Outcomes: The main outcome was bottle-measured tacrolimus adherence during the last 90 days of the 180-day trial. A secondary outcome was tacrolimus whole-blood concentrations at routine clinical visits. Measurements: Adherence for the primary outcome was assessed via wireless pill bottle openings. Results: Mean participant age was 50 years; 60% were men,. and 40% were black. Mean adherence was 78%, 88%, and 55% in the reminders, reminders-plus-notification, and control arms (P < 0.001 for comparison of each intervention to control). Mean tacrolimus levels were not significantly different between groups. Limitations: The study did not assess clinical end points. Participants and study coordinators were not blinded to intervention arm. Conclusions: Provider notification and customized reminders appear promising in helping patients achieve better medication adherence, but these strategies require evaluation in trials powered to detect differences in clinical outcomes.

METHODS: Clinical charts and spectral-domain OCT images of 194 eyes of 172 consecutive patients diagnosed with ERMs were reviewed and analyzed. RESULTS: The presence of continuous ectopic inner foveal layers was identified in 63 out of 194 eyes (32.5%) and this morphology was significantly associated with lower visual acuity. ERMs were divided into 4 stages. Stage 1 (43 out of 194 eyes, 22.1%) ERMs were mild and thin and a fovea! depression was present. Stage 2 (88 out of 194 eyes, 45.4%) ERMs were associated with widening of the outer nuclear layer and loss of the foveal depression. Stage 3 (51 out of 194 eyes, 26.3%) ERMs were associated with continuous ectopic inner foveal layers crossing the entire foveal area. In stages 1, 2, and 3 all retinal layers were clearly defined on OCT. Stage 4 ERMs (12 out of 194 eyes, 6.2%) were thick and associated with continuous ectopic inner foveal layers. In addition, retinal layers were disrupted. Visual acuity progressively declined from stage 1 through stage 4 (P < .001). CONCLUSIONS: The presence of continuous ectopic inner foveal layers in ERMs is a newly described OCT finding associated with significant vision loss and is an essential element of a novel OCT-based grading scheme of ERMs that may influence visual prognosis.

TI Treatment outcomes in veterans with HPV-positive head and neck cancer SO AMERICAN JOURNAL OF OTOLARYNGOLOGY LA English DT Article DE Squamous cell carcinoma; Human papilloma virus; Military veterans; Surgery; Chemoradiation ID SQUAMOUS-CELL CARCINOMAS; HUMAN-PAPILLOMAVIRUS INFECTION; QUALITY-OF-LIFE; OROPHARYNGEAL CANCER; HEALTH-STATUS; SURVIVAL; TOBACCO; POPULATION; ALCOHOL; SMOKING AB Objectives: Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) caused by the human papilloma virus (HPV) has an improved prognosis relative to HPV-negative tumors. Patients with HPV-positive disease may benefit from different treatment modalities in order to optimize survival and quality of life. We sought to investigate HPV-positive HNSCC within the military veteran population, and analyze the role of treatment modality in outcomes of patients with HPV-positive and HPV-negative tumors. Methods: Patients diagnosed with HNSCC between January 1, 2010 and December 31, 2014 at one regional veterans health center were retrospectively examined. Pathologic specimens underwent testing for HPV subtype and p16 expression. Demographic and clinical factors, including treatment modality, were analyzed for their impact on the primary outcome of overall survival. Results: There were 209 patients with primary tumor sites including larynx (25.4%), oral tongue (19.6%), oral cavity (13.4%), oropharynx (17.2%), tonsil (17.2%), unknown primary (2.9%), nasopharynx (1.9%), and multiple sites (2.4%). Patients had HPV-positive (n = 82, 392%), HPV-negative (ri = 89, 42.6%) or unknown HPV status (n = 38, 18.2%). Primary treatment modalities were chemoradiation (n = 124, 59.3%), surgery (n = 39, 18.7%), radiation therapy (n = 37, 17.7%), or no treatment (n = 9, 4.3%). Survival analysis with Cox proportional hazards model demonstrated significant associations with T classification (T4 3.61, P = 0.005), N classification (N3 3.52, P = 0.0159), M classification (Ml 2.8, P = 0.0209), and HPV status (HPV-positive 0.43, P = 0.0185), but no relation with primary treatment modality (primary surgery vs. primary chemoradiation 1.01, P = 0.9718). Conclusion: HPV-positive HNSCC in the veteran population has a significantly improved prognosis relative to similarly staged patients with HPV-negative disease. This study demonstrates that the primary treatment modality- chemoradiation, radiation therapy, or surgery- does not impact overall survival among veterans with HPVpositive HNSCC.

TI An Anesthesiologist's Perspective on the History of Basic Airway Management The "Artisanal Anesthetic" Era: 1846 to 1904 SO ANESTHESIOLOGY LA English DT Article ID INTUBATION; MEDICINE; SURGERY AB This second installment of the history of basic airway management covers the early-artisanal-years of anesthesia from 1846 to 1904. Anesthesia was invented and practiced as a supporting specialty in the context of great surgical and medical advances. The current-day anesthesia provider tends to equate the history of airway management with the history of intubation, but for the first 58 yr after the introduction of ether anesthesia, airway management was provided by basic airway techniques with or without the use of a face mask. The jaw thrust and chin lift were described in the artisanal years and used primarily with inhalation anesthesia in the spontaneously breathing patient and less often with negative-pressure ventilation in the apneic victim. Positive-pressure ventilation and intubation stayed at the fringes of medical practice, and airway techniques and devices were developed by trial and error. At the beginning of the 20th century, airway management and anesthetic techniques lagged behind surgical requirements.

Design: Cross-sectional cohort study. Setting: Three Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) medical centers affiliated with academic medical centers. Participants: Eligible participants were Veterans with SCI or ALs (N=516); 482 of them completed the interview. Analyses were restricted to white and African American participants. Because there was no variation in wheelchair quality among AL patients (n=42), they were excluded from all but descriptive analyses, leading to a final sample size of 421. Interventions: Not applicable. Main Outcome Measure: Wheelchair quality as defined by the Medicare Healthcare Common Procedure Coding System. Results: We found race differences in many of our variables, but not in quality for manual (odds ratio [OR] = .67; 95% confidence interval [CI], .33-1.36) or power (OR=.82; 95% CI,.51-1.34) wheelchairs. Several factors including age (OR= .96; 95% CI, .93-.99) and income (OR=3.78; 95% CI, 1.43-9.97) were associated with wheelchair quality. There were no significant associations of cultural or psychosocial factors with wheelchair quality. Conclusions: Although there were no racial differences in wheelchair quality, we found a significant association of older age and lower income with poorer wheelchair quality among Veterans. Efforts are needed to raise awareness of such disparities among VA wheelchair providers and to take steps to eliminate these disparities in prescription practice across VA sites.

Objectives were to determine feasibility of implementing PF-10a in the electronic health record (EHR) and PF-10a validity and longitudinal responsiveness. Methods: Clinical and demographic data were abstracted from EHRs for all RA patients seen at a university-based rheumatology clinic between February 2013 and February 2015. We evaluated floor and ceiling (edge) effects and construct validity of PF-10a in a subgroup of patients with Health Assessment Questionnaire (HAQ) scores (n=189). We used linear mixed-effects models to assess responsiveness of PF-10a to longitudinal changes in the Clinical Disease Activity Index (CDAI) for patients in the entire clinical cohort, with both scores recorded on at least 2 encounters (n=326). Results: Half of the patients were nonwhite, and 15% were non-English speakers. Over a 2-year period, PF10a was successfully implemented; 97% of patients and 89% of encounters had at least 1 measurement performed. PF-10a had fewer ceiling (defined as best) effects than the HAQ (8% versus 22%), and convergent validity was high (r=-0.85). PF-10a was sensitive to expected differences (older versus younger patients, more versus less active disease). Longitudinal changes in PF-10a were highly associated with changes in the CDAI score (P<0.0001). Conclusion: PF-10a was feasible to implement in a diverse RA population. It strongly correlates with the HAQ but has fewer ceiling effects and is responsive to changes in RA disease activity, suggesting its validity for use in routine clinical practice.

Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is a non-invasive brain stimulation technique that may be an effective, adjunctive treatment to non-opioid therapies. In this randomized contrortrial (RCI), we compare adjunctive active versus sham tDCS among patients in a multimodal inpatient pain management program. The primary objectives of the RCT are to improve pain tolerance and subjective pain experience. Methods and design: Patients admitted to the Pain Management Program at The Menninger Clinic in Houston, Texas are eligible for this trial. Eighty-four participants will be randomized (1:1) into a single-blind, 2 x 12 (group x time) controlled trial. A battery-powered direct and constant current stimulator (Soterix Medical Inc. 2014) delivers anodal stimulation over the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) and cathodal stimulation over the right DLPFC. Active tDCS is applied by supplying a 2 mA current for 20 min/session over 10 sessions. Participants complete self-report and performance-based assessments on a weekly basis just prior to brain stimulation. Self-report assessMents are collected via Chronic Pain Tracker version 3.6, an iPad interfaced application. The performance-based pain tolerance task is completed through the cold presser task. Discussion: Interventions with cross-symptomatic therapeutic potential are absolutely essential in the context of CP, in which psychiatric comorbidity is the norm. Modalities that can be used in tandem with evidence-based, non-opioid therapies have the potential to have a synergistic effect, resulting in increased effectiveness of what have been modestly effective treatments to date.

Accumulating evidence suggests that endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress plays a major role in the development and progression of DN. Recent findings suggested that many attributes of DN, such as hyperglycemia, proteinuria, and increased advanced glycation end products and free fatty acids, can all trigger unfolded protein response (UPR) in kidney cells. Herein, we review the current knowledge on the role of ER stress in the setting of kidney injury with a specific emphasis on DN. Recent Findings As maladaptive ER stress response caused by excessively prolonged UPR will eventually cause cell death and increase kidney injury, several ER stress inhibitors have been shown to improve DN in animal models, albeit blocking both adaptive and maladaptive UPR. More recently, reticulon-1A (RTN1A), an ER-associated protein, was shown to be increased in both human and mouse diabetic kidneys. Its expression correlates with the progression of DN, and its polymorphisms are associated with kidney disease in people with diabetes. Increased RTN1A expression heightened the ER stress response and renal cell apoptosis, and conversely reduced RTN1A in renal cells decreased apoptosis and ameliorated kidney injury and DN progression, suggesting that RTN1A may be a novel target to specifically restrain the maladaptive UPR. Summary These findings suggest that ER stress response in renal cells is a key driver of progression of DN and that the inhibition of the unchecked ER stress response in DN, such as by inhibition of RTN1A function, may be a promising therapeutic approach against DN.

TI The Use of Electrochemiluminescence Assays to Predict Autoantibody and Glycemic Progression Toward Type 1 Diabetes in Individuals with Single Autoantibodies SO DIABETES TECHNOLOGY & THERAPEUTICS LA English DT Article DE Type 1 diabetes; Autoantibodies; Hyperglycemia; Pediatrics ID GLUTAMIC-ACID DECARBOXYLASE; IDENTIFY HIGH-RISK; RELATIVES; INSULIN; CHILDREN AB Background: Electrochemiluminescence (ECL) assays have shown promise for enhancing the prediction of type 1 diabetes (T1D) with autoantibodies. We thus studied relatives of T1D patients to determine whether ECL assays can be used to refine risk assessments for T1D among individuals either positive for single GADA or single mIAA autoantibodies. Subjects and Methods: TrialNet Pathway to Prevention (PTP) study participants with either GADA or mIAA single autoantibodies were tested for ECL positivity during their participation in the TrialNet PTP study. Those ECL positive (ECL+) were compared with those ECL negative (ECL-) for conversion to multiple autoantibodies, 6-month glycemic progression (PS6M), and the progression to T1D. Results: The progression to multiple autoantibodies was significantly higher for those GADA/ECL+ (n = 107) than those GADA/ECL-(n = 78) (P = 0.001) and for those mIAA/ECL+ (n = 24) than those mIAA/ECL-(n = 63) (P < 0.001). The hazard ratios with 95% confidence intervals were 3.42 (1.58-7.39; P < 0.01) for GADA and 8.15 (3.02-22.00; P < 0.001) for mIAA. GADA/ECL+ and mIAA/ECL+ participants had significantly higher PS6M values than their ECL-counterparts (P = 0.001 for GADA and P = 0.009 for mIAA). Of those GADA/ECL+, 14% progressed to T1D; of those mIAA/ECL+, 17% progressed to T1D. Only 1 individual (positive for GADA) of the 141 who was ECL-progressed to T1D (median follow-up: 5 years). Conclusion: ECL measurements appear to have utility for natural history studies and prevention trials of individuals with single autoantibodies. Those ECL+ are at appreciable risk for developing multiple autoantibodies and for glycemic progression toward T1D, whereas those ECL-are at very low risk.

TI A randomized controlled trial to influence client language in substance use disorder treatment SO DRUG AND ALCOHOL DEPENDENCE LA English DT Article DE Motivational interviewing; Counselor training; Client language; Randomized controlled trial; Active mechanism; Technical component ID BRIEF MOTIVATIONAL INTERVENTION; COMMITMENT LANGUAGE; DRINKING OUTCOMES; SELF-PERSUASION; CHANGE TALK; METAANALYSIS; DISSONANCE; STRENGTH; ALCOHOL; MATTERS AB Background: Client language is hypothesized to be a mechanism of action in motivational interviewing (MI). Despite the association of change and sustain talk with substance treatment outcomes, it not known whether providers can intentionally influence this language as hypothesized. Objective: This is a randomized controlled trial to investigate whether substance use providers can be trained to influence client language. Methods: Treatment providers specializing in substance use disorders (n = 190) were randomly assigned to standard training in MI (MI-AU) or training emphasizing an influence of client language (MI-LEAF). Treatment sessions with actual clients were evaluated 3, 6 and 12 months after training by masked raters. Frequencies of client change and sustain talk were the outcome variables. Results: Sustain talk, but not change talk, was significantly lower in clients whose providers had received the specialized training (b = -0.175, SE = 0.087, p=0.046, CI[-0.348 to 0.0021, d = -0.325). Mediation analyses supported a causal chain between a) training, b) providers' attempts to minimize sustain talk in treatment sessions via directive reflective listening and c) client sustain talk in the treatment session (kappa(2) = 0.0833, bootstrap SE = 0.0394, 95% CI [0.0148, 0.1691]). Conclusions: With specialized training, providers can reduce the amount of opposition language their clients offer when considering a change in their substance use. Demonstrating that client language is under partial control of the provider supports the feasibility of clinical trials to investigate the impact of shaping client language on treatment outcomes.

TI Higher prevalence of detectable troponin I among cocaine-users without known cardiovascular disease SO DRUG AND ALCOHOL DEPENDENCE LA English DT Article DE Cocaine; Benzoylecgonine; Cardiac injury; Troponin; cTnI ID ACUTE MYOCARDIAL-INFARCTION; MORGAM BIOMARKER PROJECT; CRACK-COCAINE; GENERAL-POPULATION; CORONARY-ARTERIES; RISK PREDICTION; HUMAN PLATELETS; UNITED-STATES; SUBSTANCE USE; MORTALITY AB Background: While cocaine use is an established risk factor for acute cardiovascular complications, associations between cocaine use and markers of cardiac injury outside of acute hospital presentation remain poorly characterized. We leveraged advances in cardiac troponin (cTnI) testing to assess low but clinically meaningful levels of cardiac injury among cocaine users and non-users. Methods: We conducted a case control study comparing cTnI levels by the presence of cocaine among patients presenting for non-cardiac care in an urban safety net hospital. Samples were chosen sequentially among those for which urine drug screens were ordered by providers hospital-wide. Results: During 2015, 14% of all hospital drug screens ordered were cocaine-positive. Among unique persons providing cocaine-positive (N = 100) and cocaine-negative (N = 100) samples, 37% were female, 45% were African-American and the median age was 51. Detectable cTnI (> 0.02 ng/mL) was observed in 21 samples (11%). It was more common in subjects using cocaine (Adjusted OR = 2.81; 95% CI = 1.03-7.65), but not other drugs. Moreover, there was a significant correlation between concentrations of cTnI and the cocaine metabolite, benzoylecgonine (Spearman Correlation = 0.34, p < 0.01). Conclusions: Among urban safety net hospital patients, 11% had detectable cTnI, and cTnI concentration was significantly correlated with benzoylecgonine concentration. While these preliminary results require additional confirmation, they suggest the potential utility of considering cocaine use as more than just an episodic exposure leading to acute cardiac events. The consideration of cocaine use as an ongoing chronic exposure leading to subclinical cardiac injury may improve risk-stratification and patient outcomes in populations where cocaine use is high.

Objective The objective of this review was to provide an updated summary of evidence from randomized controlled studies to determine whether interventions aimed at improving medication adherence also improve the health outcomes of older adults residing in community-based settings. Methods Articles that assessed medication adherence interventions and related health outcomes in elderly individuals were identified through searches of MEDLINE (1970-June 2016), the Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews (through to June 2016), and Google Scholar. Across the 12 included studies, interventions were grouped into three main categories: behavioral/educational (n = 3), pharmacist-led (n = 7), and reminder/simplification (n = 2). Results Among the behavioral/educational intervention studies, two showed improvements in both adherence and related health outcomes, whereas one found no changes in adherence or health outcomes. Among the pharmacist-led studies, three showed improvements in both adherence and related health outcomes, while three reported no changes in adherence or health outcomes. One found an improvement in adherence but not health outcomes. Among the reminder/simplification studies, both studies reported improvements in adherence without a significant impact on related health outcomes. Conclusion This evidence-based review of medication adherence interventions in older adults revealed promising strategies in the larger context of a largely mixed body of literature. Future patient-centered and multidisciplinary interventions should be developed and tested using evidence-based principles to improve medication adherence and health outcomes in older adults.

TI Depression in patients with peripheral arterial disease: A systematic review SO EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF CARDIOVASCULAR NURSING LA English DT Review DE Depression; review; peripheral arterial disease; peripheral vascular diseases ID CORONARY-HEART-DISEASE; QUALITY-OF-LIFE; ANKLE-BRACHIAL INDEX; LOWER-EXTREMITY REVASCULARIZATION; LEG SYMPTOMS; CARDIOVASCULAR-DISEASE; FUNCTIONAL DECLINE; RISK-FACTORS; SMOKING-CESSATION; ANXIETY DISORDERS AB Objectives: The association between cardiovascular disease and depression is well-established. Peripheral arterial disease arises from atherosclerosis like other cardiovascular disease, but unlike other cardiovascular disease, it impairs ambulation and lower extremity function. Given peripheral arterial disease's unique characteristics and underrepresentation in mental health research, we aimed to: (a) assess the prevalence of depression or depressive symptoms among peripheral arterial disease patients compared to coronary artery disease rates, (b) assess whether an independent association between peripheral arterial disease and depression exists, and (c) identify associated factors that may be targeted for intervention. Design: This study was based on a systematic review. Materials and methods: Electronic databases were searched to identify studies that examined peripheral arterial disease and depression or depressive symptoms. Methodological quality was assessed using the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale. Results: We identified 28 studies. Prevalence of depression or depressive symptoms ranged from 11-48% in 12 cross-sectional studies, and from 3-36% in 16 longitudinal studies, which is comparable to reported coronary artery disease rates. Depressed peripheral arterial disease patients were more likely to be female, African American, and have more severe peripheral arterial disease symptoms and more compromised physical function compared to non-depressed patients. There is evidence to suggest that depression exerts a negative influence on walking ability and physical function independently of peripheral arterial disease. Conclusions: There is a critical need to address depression in peripheral arterial disease patients, particularly those with characteristics that place them at increased risk. Vascular care providers appear to be the primary contact for assessing depressive symptoms, and once identified, integrated mental health providers may intervene to prevent the worsening of both depression and peripheral arterial disease.

TI Association of a Frailty Screening Initiative With Postoperative Survival at 30, 180, and 365 Days SO JAMA SURGERY LA English DT Article ID 30-DAY MORTALITY; DECISION-MAKING; SURGICAL CARE; QUALITY; RISK; MORBIDITY; INDEX; PREDICTOR; OUTCOMES; SURGERY AB IMPORTANCE As the US population ages, the number of operations performed on elderly patients will likely increase. Frailty predicts postoperative mortality and morbidity more than age alone, thus presenting opportunities to identify the highest-risk surgical patients and improve their outcomes. OBJECTIVE To examine the effect of the Frailty Screening Initiative (FSI) on mortality and complications by comparing the surgical outcomes of a cohort of surgical patients treated before and after implementation of the FSI. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS This single-site, facility-wide, prospective cohort quality improvement project studied all 9153 patients from a level 1b Veterans Affairs medical center who presented for major, elective, noncardiac surgery from October 1, 2007, to July 1, 2014. INTERVENTIONS Assessment of preoperative frailty in all patients scheduled for elective surgery began in July 2011. Frailty was assessed with the Risk Analysis Index (RAI), and the records of all frail patients (RAI score, >= 21) were flagged for administrative review by the chief of surgery (or designee) before the scheduled operation. On the basis of this review, clinicians from surgery, anesthesia, critical care, and palliative care were notified of the patient's frailty and associated surgical risks; if indicated, perioperative plans were modified based on team input. MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURES Postoperative mortality at 30, 180, and 365 days. RESULTS From October 1, 2007, to July 1, 2014, a total of 9153 patients underwent surgery (mean [SD] age, 60.3 [13.5] years; female, 653 [7.1%]; and white, 7096 [79.8%]). Overall 30-day mortality decreased from 1.6%(84 of 5275 patients) to 0.7%(26 of 3878 patients, P <.001) after FSI implementation. Improvement was greatest among frail patients (12.2% [24 of 197 patients] to 3.8% [16 of 424 patients], P <.001), although mortality rates also decreased among the robust patients (1.2%[60 of 5078 patients] to 0.3%[10 of 3454 patients], P <.001). Themagnitude of improvement among frail patients increased at 180 (23.9%[47 of 197 patients] to 7.7%[30 of 389 patients], P <.001) and 365 days (34.5%[68 of 197 patients] to 11.7%[36 of 309 patients], P <.001). Multivariable models revealed improved survival after FSI implementation, controlling for age, frailty, and predicted mortality (adjusted odds ratio for 180-day survival, 2.87; 95% CI, 1.98-4.16). CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE Implementation of the FSI was associated with reduced mortality, suggesting the feasibility of widespread screening of patients preoperatively to identify frailty and the efficacy of system-level initiatives aimed at improving their surgical outcomes. Additional investigation is required to establish a causal connection. C1 [Hall, Daniel E.] Vet Affairs Pittsburgh Healthcare Syst, Ctr Hlth Equity Res & Promot, Pittsburgh, PA USA.

Transdiagnostic Behavior Therapy (TBT) for affective disorders was developed with dissemination and implementation in clinical settings in mind. The present study investigated a voluntary local dissemination and implementation effort, involving 28 providers participating in a four-hour training on TBT. Providers completed immediate (n = 22) and six-month follow-up (n = 12) training assessments and were encouraged to collect data on their TBT patients (delivery fidelity was not investigated). Findings demonstrated that providers endorsed learning of and interest in using TBT after the training. At six-months, 50% of providers reported using TBT with their patients and their perceived effectiveness of TBT to be very good to excellent. Submitted patient outcome data evidenced medium to large effect sizes. Together, these findings provide preliminary support for the effectiveness of a real world dissemination and implementation of TBT. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

TI Telephone-Delivered Stepped Collaborative Care for Treating Anxiety in Primary Care: A Randomized Controlled Trial SO JOURNAL OF GENERAL INTERNAL MEDICINE LA English DT Article DE primary care; clinical trial; collaborative care; anxiety; depression; mental health ID COGNITIVE-BEHAVIORAL THERAPY; DISORDER SEVERITY SCALE; QUALITY-OF-CARE; PANIC DISORDER; DEPRESSION; HEALTH; MANAGEMENT; VALIDITY; PROTOCOL; IMPROVE AB Collaborative care for depression is more effective in improving treatment outcomes than primary care physicians' (PCPs) usual care (UC). However, few trials of collaborative care have targeted anxiety. To examine the impact and 12-month durability of a centralized, telephone-delivered, stepped collaborative care intervention (CC) for treating anxiety disorders across a network of primary care practices. Randomized controlled trial with blinded outcome assessments. A total of 329 patients aged 18-64 referred by their PCPs in response to an electronic medical record (EMR) prompt. They include 250 highly anxious patients randomized to either CC or to UC, and 79 moderately anxious patients who were triaged to a watchful waiting (WW) cohort and later randomized if their conditions clinically deteriorated. Twelve months of telephone-delivered CC involving non-mental health professionals who provided patients with basic psycho-education, assessed preferences for guideline-based pharmacotherapy, monitored treatment responses, and informed PCPs of their patients' care preferences and progress via the EMR. Mental health-related quality of life ([HRQoL]; SF-36 MCS); secondary outcomes: anxiety (Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale [SIGH-A], Panic Disorder Severity Scale) and mood (PHQ-9). At 12-month follow-up, highly anxious patients randomized to CC reported improved mental HRQoL (effect size [ES]: 0.38 [95 % CI: 0.13-0.63]; P = 0.003), anxiety (SIGH-A ES: 0.30 [0.05-0.55]; P = 0.02), and mood (ES: 0.45 [0.19-0.71] P = 0.001) versus UC. These improvements were sustained for 12 months among African-Americans (ES: 0.70-1.14) and men (ES: 0.43-0.93). Of the 79 WW patients, 29 % met severity criteria for randomization, and regardless of treatment assignment, WW patients reported fewer anxiety and mood symptoms and better mental HRQoL over the full 24-month follow-up period than highly anxious patients who were randomized at baseline. Telephone-delivered, centralized, stepped CC improves mental HRQoL, anxiety and mood symptoms. These improvements were durable and particularly evident among those most anxious at baseline, and among African-Americans and men.

TI Patient and Partner Feedback Reports to Improve Statin Medication Adherence: A Randomized Control Trial SO JOURNAL OF GENERAL INTERNAL MEDICINE LA English DT Article DE medication adherence; social force; social support; statins ID MYOCARDIAL-INFARCTION; FINANCIAL INCENTIVES; THERAPY; MORTALITY; HEALTH AB Simple nudges such as reminders and feedback reports to either a patient or a partner may facilitate improved medication adherence. To test the impact of a pill bottle used to monitor adherence, deliver a daily alarm, and generate weekly medication adherence feedback reports on statin adherence. Three-month, three-arm randomized clinical trial (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT02480530). One hundred and twenty-six veterans with known coronary artery disease and poor adherence (medication possession ratio < 80 %). Patients were randomized to one of three groups: (1) a control group (n = 36) that received a pill-monitoring device with no alarms or feedback; (2) an individual feedback group (n = 36) that received a daily alarm and a weekly medication adherence feedback report; and (3) a partner feedback group (n = 54) that received an alarm and a weekly feedback report that was shared with a friend, family member, or a peer. The intervention continued for 3 months, and participants were followed for an additional 3 months after the intervention period. Adherence as measured by pill bottle. Secondary outcomes included change in LDL (mg/dl), patient activation, and social support. During the 3-month intervention period, medication adherence was higher in both feedback arms than in the control arm (individual feedback group 89 %, partner feedback group 86 %, control group 67 %; p < 0.001 and = 0.001). At 6 months, there was no difference in medication adherence between either of the feedback groups and the control (individual feedback 60 %, partner feedback 52 %, control group 54 %; p = 0.75 and 0.97). Daily alarms combined with individual or partner feedback reports improved statin medication adherence. While neither an individual feedback nor partner feedback strategy created a sustainable medication adherence habit, the intervention itself is relatively easy to implement and low cost.

TI RNA Binding Protein Human Antigen R Is Translocated in Astrocytes following Spinal Cord Injury and Promotes the Inflammatory Response SO JOURNAL OF NEUROTRAUMA LA English DT Article DE glial cell response to injury; inflammation; molecular biological approaches; spinal cord injury ID FACTOR-KAPPA-B; AMYOTROPHIC-LATERAL-SCLEROSIS; TRAUMATIC BRAIN-INJURY; MESSENGER-RNA; HUR; EXPRESSION; CELLS; REGENERATION; MACROPHAGES; ACTIVATION AB Inflammation plays a prominent role in the events following traumatic injury to the central nervous system (CNS). The initial inflammatory response is driven by mediators such as tumor necrosis factor a and interleukin 1 beta, which are produced by activated astrocytes and microglia at the site of injury. These factors are regulated post-transcriptionally by RNA binding proteins (RBP) that interact with adenylate and uridylate-rich elements (ARE) in the 3'-untranslated region of the messenger RNA (mRNA). Human antigen R (HuR) is one of these RBPs and generally functions as a positive regulator of ARE-containing mRNAs. Here, we hypothesized that HuR plays an important role in the induction of cytokine and chemokines in astrocytes following traumatic injury. Using a mouse model of spinal cord injury, we found HuR to be extensively translocated to the cytoplasm in astrocytes at the level of injury, consistent with its activation. In an in vitro stretch injury model of CNS trauma, we observed a similar cytoplasmic shift of HuR in astrocytes and an attenuation of cytokine induction with HuR knockdown. RNA kinetics and luciferase assays suggested that the effect was more related to transcription than RNA destabilization. A small molecule inhibitor of HuR suppressed cytokine induction of injured astrocytes and reduced chemoattraction for neutrophils and microglia. In summary, HuR is activated in astrocytes in the early stages of CNS trauma and positively regulates the molecular response of key inflammatory mediators in astrocytes. Our findings suggest that HuR may be a therapeutic target in acute CNS trauma for blunting secondary tissue injury triggered by the inflammatory response.

The aim of this study is to define the prevalence of arthritis among a cohort of veterans from ongoing U.S. military operations. A retrospective cohort study using Veterans Administration data sources for service connected disability, comorbidities, clinic utilization, and pharmacy utilization was conducted including veterans who deployed in service to operations in Afghanistan or Iraq, comparing veterans with a diagnosis of arthritis, arthritis plus back pain, and veterans with no pain diagnoses. The frequency of arthritis was 11.8%. Veterans with arthritis and arthritis plus back pain had greater frequencies of diabetes, hyperlipidemia, hypertension, and obesity compare to veterans with no pain diagnosis. Veterans with arthritis plus back pain had the highest pain clinic utilization and prescription use of opioids and anti-inflammatories. Veterans with no pain diagnosis had higher frequencies of diagnosis and clinic utilization for mental health disorders. Arthritis is prevalent among the latest generation of combat veterans and is associated with diabetes, obesity, and cardiovascular comorbidities. The need for arthritis care and associated comorbidities is expected to increase as the Veterans Administration and the civilian health care sector assumes care of these veterans.

We examined the association between 20-year weight change and cognitive function in late life. DesignCohort study. SettingStudy of Osteoporotic Fractures (SOF). ParticipantsOne thousand two hundred eighty-nine older, community-dwelling women (mean baseline age 68 (65-81) and 88 (82-102) at cognitive testing). MeasurementsStudy of Osteoporotic Fractures participants had body weight measured repeatedly over 20 years (mean 8 weights). Adjudicated cognitive status was classified as normal (n = 775) or mild cognitive impairment (MCI)/dementia (n = 514) at Year 20. Logistic models were used to evaluate whether absolute weight change, rate of weight loss per year, presence of abrupt, unrecovered weight loss, and weight variability were associated with MCI or dementia. ResultsWomen with greater rate of weight loss over 20 years had increased chance of developing MCI or dementia. In age/education/clinic-adjusted base models, each 0.5 kg/yr decrease resulted in 30% increased odds of MCI/dementia (OR = 1.30 [95% CI: 1.14, 1.49]). After adjustment for age, education, clinic, depression, and walking speed, there was 17% (OR = 1.17 [95% CI: 1.02, 1.35]) increased odds of MCI/dementia for each 0.5 kg/yr decrease in weight. In base models, variability in weight was significant. Each 1% average deviation from each woman's predicted weight curve was associated with 11% increased odds of MCI/dementia (OR = 1.11 [95% CI: 1.04, 1.18]). The estimate was attenuated after full adjustment (OR = 1.06 [95% CI: 0.99, 1.14]). The presence of an abrupt weight decline was not associated with MCI/dementia. ConclusionsRate of weight loss over 20 years was associated with development of MCI or dementia in women surviving past 80 years, suggesting that nutritional status, social-environmental factors, and/or adipose tissue function and structure may affect cognitive function with aging.

TI An Examination of Claims-based Predictors of Overdose from a Large Medicaid Program SO MEDICAL CARE LA English DT Article DE opioid medication overdose; health claims; opioid medication misuse and abuse ID PRESCRIPTION OPIOID ABUSE; UNITED-STATES; CHRONIC PAIN; PRESCRIBING PATTERNS; IDENTIFY PATIENTS; RISK; DEATHS; MISUSE; CARE; INTERVENTIONS AB Background: Health systems may play an important role in identification of patients at-risk of opioid medication overdose. However, standard measures for identifying overdose risk in administrative data do not exist. Objective: Examine the association between opioid medication overdose and 2 validated measures of nonmedical use of prescription opioids within claims data. Research Design: A longitudinal retrospective cohort study that estimated associations between overdose and nonmedical use. Subjects: Adult Pennsylvania Medicaid program 2007-2012 patients initiating opioid treatment who were: nondual eligible, without cancer diagnosis, and not in long-term care facilities or receiving hospice. Measures: Overdose (International Classification of Disease, ninth edition, prescription opioid poisonings codes), opioid abuse (opioid use disorder diagnosis while possessing an opioid prescription), opioid misuse (a composite indicator of number of opioid prescribers, number of pharmacies, and days supplied), and dose exposure during opioid treatment episodes. Results: A total of 372,347 Medicaid enrollees with 583,013 new opioid treatment episodes were included in the cohort. Opioid overdose was higher among those with abuse (1.5%) compared with those without (0.2%, P<0.001). Overdose was higher among those with probable (1.8%) and possible (0.9%) misuse compared with those without (0.2%, P<0.001). Abuse [adjusted rate ratio (ARR), 1.52; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.10-2.10), probable misuse (ARR, 1.98; 95% CI, 1.46-2.67), and possible misuse (ARR, 1.76; 95% CI, 1.48-2.09) were associated with significantly more events of opioid medication overdose compared with those without. Conclusions: Claims-based measures can be used by health systems to identify individuals at-risk of overdose who can be targeted for restrictions on opioid prescribing, dispensing, or referral to treatment.

Fortunately, effective treatments, such as Prolonged Exposure ( PE), are available and widely disseminated in the Veterans Affairs ( VA) health-care system. Nonetheless, despite well-documented effectiveness, attrition remains high at approximately 30% across evidence-based interventions. Early studies indicated that dropout was largely related to stigma and logistical barriers ( e. g., travel time and cost). However, research demonstrates that eliminating these logistical and stigma-based barriers ( e. g., through home-based telemedicine) has little effect on dropout. We surveyed 82 veterans who dropped out of PE treatment regarding reasons for leaving treatment. Approximately half indicated that in vivo homework assignments caused significant problems, and when asked to consider the possibility of peer support during in vivo exposure assignments, 52% indicated that they would consider returning to treatment with such assistance. In response to this feedback, we constructed an in vivo therapy peer support program wherein peers are directly involved with in vivo exposure exercises. The following brief report presents the rationale for, outline of, and initial feasibility data supporting this program to enhance both return to, and completion of, exposure therapy treatment for PTSD.

TI Dendritic cells from the human female reproductive tract rapidly capture and respond to HIV SO MUCOSAL IMMUNOLOGY LA English DT Article ID HUMAN-IMMUNODEFICIENCY-VIRUS; LEUKOCYTE PROTEASE INHIBITOR; MENSTRUAL-CYCLE; PIGTAIL MACAQUES; LANGERHANS CELLS; EX-VIVO; INFECTION; SUSCEPTIBILITY; SUBSETS; TYPE-1 AB Dendritic cells (DCs) throughout the female reproductive tract (FRT) were examined for phenotype, HIV capture ability and innate anti-HIV responses. Two main CD11c(+) DC subsets were identified: CD11b(+) and CD11b(low) DCs. CD11b(+)CD14(+) DCs were the most abundant throughout the tract. A majority of CD11c(+)CD14(+) cells corresponded to CD1c(+) myeloid DCs, whereas the rest lacked CD1c and CD163 expression (macrophage marker) and may represent monocyte-derived cells. In addition, we identified CD103(+) DCs, located exclusively in the endometrium, whereas DC-SIGN(+) DCs were broadly distributed throughout the FRT. Following exposure to GFP-labeled HIV particles, CD14(+) DC-SIGN(+) as well as CD14(+) DC-SIGN(-) cells captured virus, with similar to 30% of these cells representing CD1c(+) myeloid DCs. CD103(+) DCs lacked HIV capture ability. Exposure of FRT DCs to HIV induced secretion of CCL2, CCR5 ligands, interleukin (IL)-8, elafin, and secretory leukocyte peptidase inhibitor (SLPI) within 3 h of exposure, whereas classical pro-inflammatory molecules did not change and interferon-alpha 2 and IL-10 were undetectable. Furthermore, elafin and SLPI upregulation, but not CCL5, were suppressed by estradiol pre-treatment. Our results suggest that specific DC subsets in the FRT have the potential for capture and dissemination of HIV, exert antiviral responses and likely contribute to the recruitment of HIV-target cells through the secretion of innate immune molecules.

TI Acute Recapitulation of the Hyperinsulinemia and Hyperlipidemia Characteristic of Metabolic Syndrome Suppresses Gonadotropins SO OBESITY LA English DT Article ID POLYCYSTIC OVARIAN SYNDROME; MUSCLE INSULIN-RESISTANCE; BODY-MASS INDEX; LUTEINIZING-HORMONE; OBESE WOMEN; MENSTRUAL-CYCLE; LUTEAL-PHASE; INVERSE RELATIONSHIP; FEMALE MICE; GLUCOSE AB Objective: To determine the effect of lipid/heparin versus saline infusion, with or without concurrent euglycemic hyperinsulinemia, on serum follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH). Obesity is associated with hyperlipidemia, insulin resistance, and relative hypogonadotropic hypogonadism. It was hypothesized that acutely elevated fatty acids and insulin would impair gonadotropin secretion. Methods: Regularly cycling women and men without obesity underwent a crossover 6-hour infusion study over four visits. Participants received infusions of saline-control, lipid/heparin, insulin, and lipid/heparin plus insulin. Serum FSH and LH were measured by immunoassay. Results: In women (n=10), infusion of lipid plus insulin significantly reduced LH, from 4.6 IU/L (3.7-5.4) ( mean [95% confidence interval]) to 3.3 IU/L (2.3-4.4); P=0.03, and FSH, from 3.9 IU/L (3.2-4.6) to 3.1 IU/L (2.3-3.8); P=0.03, compared to saline-control. Similarly, in men ( n=10), LH, 3.3 IU/L (2.4-4.1), and FSH, 2.1 IU/L (1.4-2.8), were significantly reduced after the combined infusion (2.2 [1.3-3.1] IU/L and 1.5 [0.8-2.1] IU/L; P=0.03, P=0.02, respectively). Neither lipid nor insulin alone significantly impacted gonadotropin levels compared to saline-control. Conclusions: Hyperinsulinemia combined with elevated lipids acutely suppresses LH and FSH, providing a possible mechanism underlying the relative hypogonadotropic hypogonadism of obesity. Effects of insulin on the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis may be dependent on the concomitant metabolic environment.

TI Survey of Primary Care and Mental Health Prescribers' Perspectives on Reducing Opioid and Benzodiazepine Co-Prescribing Among Veterans SO PAIN MEDICINE LA English DT Article DE Chronic Pain; Concurrent Opioid and Benzodiazepine Use; Primary Care; Mental Health; Beliefs; Attitudes; High-Risk Conditions ID POSTTRAUMATIC-STRESS-DISORDER; CHRONIC PAIN; GENERAL-PRACTITIONERS; PARIHS FRAMEWORK; PHYSICIANS PERSPECTIVES; OLDER-ADULTS; US VETERANS; IMPLEMENTATION; ATTITUDES; DOCTORS AB Background. Due to the involvement of opioids and benzodiazepines in rising pharmaceutical overdoses, a reduction in coprescribing of these medications is a national priority, particularly among patients with substance use disorders and other high-risk conditions. However, little is known about primary care (PC) and mental health (MH) prescribers' perspectives on these medications and efforts being implemented to reduce coprescribing. Design. An anonymous survey. Setting. One multisite VA health care system. Subjects. Participants were 55 PC and 31 MH prescribers. Methods. Survey development was guided by the Promoting Action on Research Implementation in Health Services (PARIHS) conceptual framework. PC and MH prescribers of opioids or benzodiazepines were invited to complete an anonymous electronic survey. Responses were collapsed to highlight agreement, disagreement, and neutrality and summarized with means and percentages. Results. Over 80% of both prescriber groups reported concern about concurrent use and > 75% strongly agreed with clinical practice guidelines (CPG) that recommend caution in coprescribing among patients with high-risk conditions. More than 40% of both prescriber groups indicated that coprescribing continues because of beliefs that patients appear stable without adverse events and tapering/discontinuation is too difficult. Over 70% of prescribers rated strategies for addressing patients who refuse to discontinue, more time with patients, and identification of high-risk patients as helpful in reducing coprescribing. Conclusion. Despite strong agreement with CPGs, prescribers reported several barriers that contribute to coprescribing of opioids and benzodiazepines and challenge their ability to taper these medications. Multiple interventions are likely needed to reduce opioid and benzodiazepine coprescribing.

The purpose of this study was to examine psychosocial influences on exercise-induced hypoalgesia (EIH). Design. Randomized controlled trial. Setting. Clinical research unit in a hospital. Subjects. Fifty-eight healthy men and women (mean age=21 +/- 3 years) participated in this study. Methods. Participants were first asked to complete a series of baseline demographic and psychological questionnaires including the Pain Catastrophizing Scale, the Fear of Pain Questionnaire, and the Family Environment Scale. Following this, they were familiarized with both temporal summation of heat pain and pressure pain testing protocols. During their next session, participants completed the Profile of Mood States, rated the intensity of heat pulses, and indicated their pressure pain thresholds and ratings before and after three minutes of submaximal, isometric exercise. Situational catastrophizing was assessed at the end of the experimental session. Results. Results indicated that experimental pain sensitivity was significantly reduced after exercise (P < 0.05). Men and women did not differ on any of the measured psychosocial variables (P > 0.05). Positive family environments predicted attenuated pain sensitivity and greater EIH, whereas negative and chronic pain-present family environments predicted worse pain and EIH outcomes. Situational catastrophizing and negative mood state also predicted worse pain and EIH outcomes and were additionally associated with increased ratings of perceived exertion and muscle pain during exercise. Conclusions. This study provides preliminary evidence that psychosocial variables, such as the family environment and mood states, can affect both pain sensitivity and the ability to modulate pain through exercise-induced hypoalgesia.

TI An RCT Evaluating the Effects of Skills Training and Medication Type on Work Outcomes Among Patients With Schizophrenia SO PSYCHIATRIC SERVICES LA English DT Article ID RANDOMIZED CONTROLLED-TRIALS; SEVERE MENTAL-ILLNESS; SUPPORTED EMPLOYMENT; INDIVIDUAL PLACEMENT; WORKPLACE SKILLS; SCALE; MODEL AB Objective: Although supported employment increases job acquisition for people with serious mental illness, data on participants' job tenure have been variable. This study evaluated the effects of a standardized work skills training program (the Workplace Fundamentals Module [WPFM]) on job tenure and other work outcomes among individuals receiving individual placement and support (IPS). The effects of two atypical antipsychotic medications on side effects were also tested. The primary hypothesis testedwas that participants in IPS plus WPFM would have increased job tenure compared with those enrolled in IPS only, and the secondary hypothesis was that different antipsychoticmedicationswould yield unique side effects. Methods: A 232 randomized controlled trial compared work outcomes, including job tenure, of participants receiving IPS with or without WPFM for up to two years after obtaining a job. Participants were also randomly assigned to olanzapine or risperidone. Measures of work outcomes, clinical status, and medication side effects were collected. Results: Among 107 participants, 63% obtained at least one job. WPFM did not increase job tenure (51.53 and 41.37 total weeks worked for IPS only and IPS plus WPFM, respectively) or affect other work outcomes. Participants on olanzapine experienced increased body mass index, whereas those on risperidone lost weight, but medications did not differentially affect clinical or job outcomes. Conclusions: Clinic-based skills training did not improve work outcomes accruing from IPS. Risperidone, compared with olanzapine, may reduce body mass but has no differential effect on other work or clinical outcomes.

Data came from the Advanced Cognitive Training for Independent and Vital Elderly study (N = 2,438). Mixed effects analyses examined the associations between neighborhood variables and memory, reasoning, speed of processing, and everyday cognition, estimating differences in initial gains (potentially related to practice) and long-term rate of change over 10 years. The effect of reasoning training on initial gain was weaker for individuals in a major city. For everyday cognition, there was a stronger initial gain for memory-trained and control participants in areas with more racial/ethnic minorities and for speed-trained and control individuals in higher SEP areas. The racial/ethnic minority effect was no longer significant after adjustment for multiple comparisons. Neighborhood factors may be more important in practice-related improvement than in long-term change. C1 [Meyer, Oanh L.] Univ Calif Davis, Sch Med, Sacramento, CA 95817 USA.

We aimed to identify risk factors for SSI posthysterectomy among women with a high prevalence of gynecologic malignancies, in a tertiary care setting where compliance with the Joint Commission's Surgical Care Improvement Project core measures is excellent. Methods: The study was a matched case-control, 2 controls per case, matched on date of surgery. Study time was January 2, 2012-December 31, 2015. Procedures included abdominal and vaginal hysterectomies (open, laparoscopic, and robotic). SSI (superficial incisional or deep/organ/space) was defined as within 30 days postoperatively, per Centers for Disease Control and Prevention criteria. Statistical analysis included bivariate analysis and conditional logistic regression controlling for demographic and clinical variables, both patient-related and surgery-related, including detailed prophylactic antibiotic exposure. Results: Of the total 1,531 hysterectomies performed, we identified 52 SSIs (3%), with 60% being deep incisional or organ/space infections. All case patients received appropriate preoperative antibiotics (timing, choice, and weight-based dosing). Bivariate analysis showed that higher median weight, higher median Charlson comorbidity index, immune suppressed state, American Society of Anesthesiologists score >= 3, prior surgery within 60 days, clindamycin/gentamicin prophylaxis, surgery involving the omentum or gastrointestinal tract, longer surgery duration, >= 4 surgeons present in the operating room, higher median blood loss, >= 7 catheters or invasive devices in the operating room, and higher median length of hospital stay increased SSI risk (P <.05 for all). Cefazolin preoperative prophylaxis, robot-assisted surgery, and laparoscopic surgery were protective (P <.05 for all). Duration of surgery was the only independent risk factor for SSI identified on multivariate analysis (odds ratio, 3.45; 95% confidence interval, 1.21-9.76; P =.02). Conclusions: In our population of women with multimorbidity and hysterectomies largely due to underlying gynecologic malignancies, duration of surgery, presumed a marker of surgical complexity, is a significant SSI risk factor. The choice of preoperative antibiotic did not alter SSI risk in our study. (C) 2017 Association for Professionals in Infection Control and Epidemiology, Inc. Published by Elsevier Inc.

TI Multivariate Analysis of MRI Biomarkers for Predicting Neurologic Impairment in Cervical Spinal Cord Injury SO AMERICAN JOURNAL OF NEURORADIOLOGY LA English DT Article ID PRINCIPAL-COMPONENTS-ANALYSIS; OPTIMAL RADIOLOGIC METHOD; CANAL COMPROMISE; REPRODUCIBLE METHOD; COMPRESSION; SEVERITY; RECOVERY; TRAUMA; RELIABILITY; DAMAGE AB BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Acute markers of spinal cord injury are essential for both diagnostic and prognostic purposes. The goal of this study was to assess the relationship between early MR imaging biomarkers after acute cervical spinal cord injury and to evaluate their predictive validity of neurologic impairment. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We performed a retrospective cohort study of 95 patients with acute spinal cord injury and preoperative MR imaging within 24 hours of injury. The American Spinal Injury Association Impairment Scale was used as our primary outcome measure to define neurologic impairment. We assessed several MR imaging features of injury, including axial grade (Brain and Spinal Injury Center score), sagittal grade, length of injury, maximum canal compromise, and maximum spinal cord compression. Data-driven nonlinear principal component analysis was followed by correlation and optimal-scaled multiple variable regression to predict neurologic impairment. RESULTS: Nonlinear principal component analysis identified 2 clusters of MR imaging variables related to 1) measures of intrinsic cord signal abnormality and 2) measures of extrinsic cord compression. Neurologic impairment was best accounted for by MR imaging measures of intrinsic cord signal abnormality, with axial grade representing the most accurate predictor of short-term impairment, even when correcting for surgical decompression and degree of cord compression. CONCLUSIONS: This study demonstrates the utility of applying nonlinear principal component analysis for defining the relationship between MR imaging biomarkers in a complex clinical syndrome of cervical spinal cord injury. Of the assessed imaging biomarkers, the intrinsic measures of cord signal abnormality were most predictive of neurologic impairment in acute spinal cord injury, highlighting the value of axial T2 MR imaging.

TI Fluid shear stress induces upregulation of COX-2 and PGI(2) release in endothelial cells via a pathway involving PECAM-1, PI3K, FAK, and p38 SO AMERICAN JOURNAL OF PHYSIOLOGY-HEART AND CIRCULATORY PHYSIOLOGY LA English DT Article DE prostaglandin I-2; cyclooxygenase-2; PECAM-1; integrins; shear stress; glycocalyx; syndecan-4; primary cilia ID FOCAL ADHESION KINASE; HEPARAN-SULFATE PROTEOGLYCAN; GENE-EXPRESSION; CYCLOOXYGENASE-2 EXPRESSION; EXTRACELLULAR-MATRIX; SIGNAL-TRANSDUCTION; HEMODYNAMIC FORCES; IN-VIVO; PROSTACYCLIN; INTEGRIN AB Vascular endothelial cells play an important role in the regulation of vascular function in response to mechanical stimuli in both healthy and diseased states. Prostaglandin I-2 (PGI(2)) is an important antiatherogenic prostanoid and vasodilator produced in endothelial cells through the action of the cyclooxygenase (COX) isoenzymes COX-1 and COX-2. However, the mechanisms involved in sustained, shear-induced production of COX-2 and PGI(2) have not been elucidated but are determined in the present study. We used cultured endothelial cells exposed to steady fluid shear stress (FSS) of 10 dyn/cm(2) for 5 h to examine shear stress-induced induction of COX-2/PGI(2). Our results demonstrate the relationship between the mechanosensor platelet endothelial cell adhesion molecule-1 (PECAM-1) and the intracellular mechanoresponsive molecules phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K), focal adhesion kinase (FAK), and mitogen-activated protein kinase p38 in the FSS induction of COX-2 expression and PGI2 release. Knockdown of PECAM-1 (small interference RNA) expression inhibited FSS-induced activation of alpha(5)beta(1)-integrin, upregulation of COX-2, and release of PGI(2) in both bovine aortic endothelial cells (BAECs) and human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). Furthermore, inhibition of the PI3K pathway (LY294002) substantially inhibited FSS activation of alpha(5)beta(1)-integrin, upregulation of COX-2 gene and protein expression, and release of PGI(2) in BAECs. Inhibition of integrin-associated FAK (PF573228) and MAPK p38 (SB203580) also inhibited the shear-induced upregulation of COX-2. Finally, a PECAM-1(-/-) mouse model was characterized by reduced COX-2 immunostaining in the aorta and reduced plasma PGI(2) levels compared with wild-type mice, as well as complete inhibition of acute flow-induced PGI(2) release compared with wild-type animals. NEW & NOTEWORTHY In this study we determined the major mechanotransduction pathway by which blood flow-driven shear stress activates cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) and prostaglandin I-2 (PGI(2)) release in endothelial cells. Our work has demonstrated for the first time that COX-2/PGI(2) mechanotransduction is mediated by the mechanosensor platelet endothelial cell adhesion molecule- 1 (PECAM-1).

Method: All outpatients seen for clinical evaluation in a VA Neuropsychology Clinic were randomly given one of the two handouts immediately prior to evaluation. The "Intervention" handout emphasized the importance of trying one's hardest, explicitly listed consequences of valid and invalid responding and asked patients to sign and initial it. The "Control" handout provided general information about neuropsychological evaluation. Examiners were blinded to condition. Patients were excluded from analyses if they were diagnosed with major neurocognitive disorder or could not read the handout. Medical Symptom Validity Test (MSVT) was used to determine performance validity. Results: Groups did not differ on age, education, or litigation status. For the entire sample (N = 251), there was no effect of handout on passing versus failing MSVT. However, among patients who were seeking disability benefits at the time of evaluation (n = 70), the Intervention handout was associated with lower frequency of failing MSVT than the Control handout. Conclusions: This brief, theory-based, cost-free intervention was associated with lower frequency of invalid data among patients seeking disability benefits at the time of clinical evaluation. We suggest methodological modifications that might produce a more potent intervention that could be effective with additional subsets of patients.

For example, it remains unclear how different hydrogel cross-linking chemistries and gelation mechanisms influence cell behavior. Here, we report on hyaluronan-tyramine (HA-Tyr) hydrogels prepared either with enzymatic cross-linking using horseradish peroxidase and H2O2 or with visible light (500 nm) triggered gelation. We demonstrate that when hydrogels are polymerized to equivalent Young's moduli, the specific cross-linking chemistry of HA-Tyr hydrogels can have a substantial impact on mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) behavior. MSCs cultured on HA-Tyr hydrogels exhibit increased cell spread areas on enzymatically formed substrates relative to photo-cross-linked matrices. While enzymatically formed hydrogels led to MSCs exhibiting greater cell focal adhesion length, MSCs cultured on the photo-cross-linked matrices exhibited smaller cell spread area and shorter focal adhesion length but generated increased traction stress. These findings highlight the importance of understanding hydrogel cross-linking chemistries when the role of biophysical cues in regulating stem cell fate is investigated.

In individuals at risk for developing Alzheimer's disease (AD), CRF may be a modifiable risk factor that could attenuate anticipated declines in brain volume and episodic memory. The objective of this study was to determine the association between CRF and both hippocampal volume and episodic memory in a cohort of cognitively healthy older adults with familial and/or genetic risk for Alzheimer's disease (AD). Methods: Eighty-six enrollees from the Wisconsin Registry for Alzheimer's Prevention participated in this study. Participants performed a graded maximal exercise test, underwent a T-1 anatomical magnetic resonance imaging scan, and completed the Rey Auditory Verbal Learning Test (RAVLT). Results: There were no significant relationships between CRF and HV or RAVLT memory scores for the entire sample. When the sample was explored on the basis of gender, CRF was significantly associated with hippocampal volume for women. For men, significant positive associations were observed between CRF and RAVLT memory scores. Summary: These results suggest that CRF may be protective against both hippocampal volume and episodic memory decline in older adults at risk for AD, but that the relationships may be gender specific.

Background: Patients with prior PCI who undergo noncardiac surgery have an increased risk of postoperative MACE, but few studies have examined the association of PCI lesion characteristics with subsequent operative risk. Methods: Patients were identified using the VA Clinical Assessment, Reporting, and Tracking (CART) program. Patients who underwent noncardiac surgery within 2 years after stent placement were linked to VA and non-VA surgical records. A multivariable logistic regression model was developed to identify predictors of postoperative MACE. Results: Among 12,621 patients with a history of prior PCI who underwent subsequent noncardiac surgery, 570 (4.5%) developed postoperative MACE. The median time from stent placement to surgery was 368 days (IQR 181-528). The strongest predictors of postoperative MACE were urgency of the operation, revised cardiac risk index, the indication for the prior PCI, and timing of the surgery after the PCI. Lesion characteristics independently associated with postoperative MACE included PCI to a distal (AOR 1.43, 95% CI 1.11-1.83) or ostial lesion (AOR 1.52, 95% CI 1.11-2.08), and lesion calcification (AOR 1.29, 95% CI 1.03-1.61), but stent length and target vessel were not independently associated with outcomes. Placement of a bare metal stent was also an independent predictor of MACE after noncardiac surgery (AOR 1.29, 95% CI 1.06-1.57). Conclusions: While patient and operative characteristics are the strongest predictors of MACE after noncardiac surgery, specific lesion characteristics including ostial or distal lesion location and calcification are novel risk factors for postoperative MACE.

TI Hospice Enrollment in Patients With Advanced Heart Failure Decreases Acute Medical Service Utilization SO CIRCULATION-HEART FAILURE LA English DT Article DE adult; caregiver; heart failure; hospice; Medicare ID PALLIATIVE CARE; OF-LIFE; CANCER; MANAGEMENT; END; BENEFICIARIES; CAREGIVERS; DIAGNOSIS; ASSOCIATION; DEPRESSION AB Background-Patients with advanced heart failure (HF) enroll in hospice at low rates, and data on their acute medical service utilization after hospice enrollment is limited. Methods and Results-We performed a descriptive analysis of Medicare fee-for-service beneficiaries, with at least one home health claim between July 1, 2009, and June 30, 2010, and at least 2 HF hospitalizations between July 1, 2009, and December 31, 2009, who subsequently enrolled in hospice between July 1, 2009, and December 31, 2009. We estimated panel-negative binomial models on a subset of beneficiaries to compare their acute medical service utilization before and after enrollment. Our sample size included 5073 beneficiaries: 55% were female, 45% were >= 85 years of age, 13% were non-white, and the mean comorbidity count was 2.38 (standard deviation 1.22). The median number of days between the second HF hospital discharge and hospice enrollment was 45. The median number of days enrolled in hospice was 15, and 39% of the beneficiaries died within 7 days of enrollment. During the study period, 11% of the beneficiaries disenrolled from hospice at least once. The adjusted mean number of hospital, intensive care unit, and emergency room admissions decreased from 2.56, 0.87, and 1.17 before hospice enrollment to 0.53, 0.19, and 0.76 after hospice enrollment. Conclusions-Home health care Medicare beneficiaries with advanced HF who enrolled in hospice had lower acute medical service utilization after their enrollment. Their pattern of hospice use suggests that earlier referral and improved retention may benefit this population. Further research is necessary to understand hospice referral and palliative care needs of advanced HF patients. C1 [Lala, Anuradha] Div Cardiol & Populat Hlth Sci & Policy, New York, NY USA.

TI Advance Directives and End-of-Life Care among Nursing Home Residents Receiving Maintenance Dialysis SO CLINICAL JOURNAL OF THE AMERICAN SOCIETY OF NEPHROLOGY LA English DT Article ID DECISION-MAKING; KIDNEY-DISEASE; HOSPITAL DEATH; QUALITY; INTERVENTION; HEMODIALYSIS; ESRD AB Background and objectives Little is known about the relation between the content of advance directives and downstream treatment decisions among patients receiving maintenance dialysis. In this study, we determined the prevalence of advance directives specifying treatment limitations and/or surrogate decision-makers in the last year of life and their association with end-of-life care among nursing home residents. Design, setting, participants, & measurements Using national data from 2006 to 2007, we compared the content of advance directives among 30,716 nursing home residents receiving dialysis to 30,825 nursing home residents with other serious illnesses during the year before death. Among patients receiving dialysis, we linked the content of advance directives to Medicare claims to ascertain site of death and treatment intensity in the last month of life. Results In the last year of life, 36% of nursing home residents receiving dialysis had a treatment-limiting directive, 22% had a surrogate decision-maker, and 13% had both in adjusted analyses. These estimates were 13%-27%, 5%-11%, and 6%-13% lower, respectively, than for decedents with other serious illnesses. For patients receiving dialysis who had both a treatment-limiting directive and surrogate decision-maker, the adjusted frequency of hospitalization, intensive care unit admission, intensive procedures, and inpatient death were lower by 13%, 17%, 13%, and 14%, respectively, and hospice use and dialysis discontinuation were 5% and 7% higher compared with patients receiving dialysis lacking both components. Conclusions Among nursing home residents receiving dialysis, treatment-limiting directives and surrogates were associated with fewer intensive interventions and inpatient deaths, but were in place much less often than for nursing home residents with other serious illnesses.

Comprehensive evidence syntheses, including meta-analyses, were performed to summarise all available evidence relevant to the Task Force's questions. The evidence was appraised using the Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development and Evaluation approach and the results were summarised in evidence profiles. The evidence syntheses were discussed and recommendations formulated by a multidisciplinary Task Force of COPD experts. After considering the balance of desirable and undesirable consequences, quality of evidence, feasibility, and acceptability of various interventions, the Task Force made: 1) a strong recommendation for noninvasive mechanical ventilation of patients with acute or acute-on-chronic respiratory failure; 2) conditional recommendations for oral corticosteroids in outpatients, oral rather than intravenous corticosteroids in hospitalised patients, antibiotic therapy, home-based management, and the initiation of pulmonary rehabilitation within 3 weeks after hospital discharge; and 3) a conditional recommendation against the initiation of pulmonary rehabilitation during hospitalisation. The Task Force provided recommendations related to corticosteroid therapy, antibiotic therapy, noninvasive mechanical ventilation, home-based management, and early pulmonary rehabilitation in patients having a COPD exacerbation. These recommendations should be reconsidered as new evidence becomes available. C1 [Wedzicha, Jadwiga A.] Imperial Coll London, Natl Heart & Lung Inst, Airways Dis Sect, London, England.

A case-control study was conducted utilizing a population of 38,092 patients from the 2010 Florida Agency for Health Care Administration (AHCA), USA hospital discharge data. The case population included 16,236 records with any of five ICD-9-CM principal procedure codes for initial lumbar fusion. The control group was comprised of 21,856 patients who were admitted for the same principal diagnoses as the cases, but who did not have initial fusion surgery. Logistic regression was used to analyze the association of age, gender, race and principal payer type with initial lumbar fusions. The interaction between age and payer was also examined, as payer type may moderate the association between age and lumbar fusion surgery. Gender, race, principal payer and age were all found to be significantly associated with lumbar fusion surgery. The interaction of payer and age was also found to be significant. Being female was significantly associated with having a fusion (OR = 1.11, 95 % CI 1.07-1.16). The association between age and receiving surgery was greatest for the less than 20 age group (OR = 10.43, 95 % CI 8.74-12.45). Employees and dependents of Federal government agencies (Tricare, etc.) and patients with commercial insurance were significantly associated with surgery (OR = 1.48, 95 % CI 1.29-1.70 and OR = 1.12, 95 % CI 1.04-1.20, respectively). Patients insured through Medicaid (a social health care program for those with low incomes and limited resources), and the uninsured were negatively associated with surgery (OR = 0.53, 95 % CI 0.47-0.60 and OR = 0.52, 95 % CI 0.46-0.58, respectively). Lumbar fusion surgery is not recommended in clinical practice guidelines for the top four principal diagnoses in this study. Yet, patients covered by certain types of insurance were found to be significantly associated with fusion surgery.

Effective treatments are largely lacking. This pilot study evaluated the safety and feasibility of a novel intervention, Concurrent Treatment of PTSD and Substance Use Disorders Using Prolonged Exposure (COPE), in preparation for a randomized controlled trial. Methods: Twenty-two treatment-seeking women with current DSM-IV-TR PTSD and alcohol dependence (AD) were recruited. Participants received COPE. Safety and feasibility were evaluated, as were efficacy-related outcomes: PTSD and depression symptom severity, alcohol use, craving, and dependence severity. Results: No adverse events occurred. COPE was implemented in routine clinical practice. Among the assessed women, 95.8% were eligible to participate. Treatment attendance and completion were higher than in previous studies. Post treatment, all efficacy-related outcomes, including PTSD and depression symptom severity, alcohol use, craving, and dependence severity, were significantly reduced. Conclusions: COPE was safe and feasible to use. Concerns that trauma-focused, exposure-based therapy might promote relapse in this population appear unwarranted. Our findings provide initial evidence suggestive of COPE efficacy for comorbid PTSD and AD in women. These results provide a strong rationale for investigating the efficacy of COPE for comorbid PTSD and AD in women in a randomized controlled trial.

However, its clinical and prognostic value have not been well evaluated in symptomatic patients with heart failure. Methods and Results: The association between pro-ENK and markers of renal function was evaluated in 95 patients with chronic heart failure who underwent renal hemodynamic measurements, including renal blood flow (RBF) and glomerular filtration rate (GFR) with the use of I-131-Hippuran and I-125-iothalainate clearances, respectively. The association between pro-ENK and clinical outcome in acute heart failure was assessed in another 1589 patients. Pro-ENK was strongly correlated with both RBF (P <.001) and GFR (P <.001), but not with renal tubular markers. In the acute heart failure cohort, pro-ENK was a predictor of death through 180 days, heart failure rehospitalization through 60 days, and death or cardiovascular or renal rehospitalization through day 60 in univariable analyses, but its predictive value was lost in a multivariable model when other renal markers were entered in the model. \ Conclusions: In patients with chronic and acute heart failure, pro-ENK is strongly associated with glomerular function, but not with tubular damage. Pro-ENK provides limited prognostic information in patients with acute heart failure on top of established renal markers.

Method: Secondary analyses were performed with a combined data set consisting of 2 published and 2 unpublished trials of MBSR conducted at a large Veterans Affairs hospital. The combined sample included 113 veterans enrolled in MBSR who screened positive for PTSD and completed measures of mindfulness and PTSD symptoms before and after the 8-week intervention. Results: Increases in mindfulness were significantly associated with reduced PTSD symptoms. Increases in Acting With Awareness and Non-Reactivity were the facets of mindfulness most strongly and consistently associated with reduced PTSD symptoms. Increases in mindfulness were most strongly related to decreases in Hyperarousal and Emotional Numbing. Conclusions: These results extend previous research, provide preliminary support for changes in mindfulness as a viable mechanism of treatment, and have a number of potential practical and theoretical implications.

Currently, AD diagnosis is primarily based on psychological evaluation and can only be confirmed post-mortem. Reliable and objective biomarkers for prognosis and diagnosis have been sought for years. Together, tau and amyloid beta 1-42 (A beta(42)) in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) have been shown to provide good diagnostic sensitivity and specificity. Additionally, phosphorylated forms of tau, such as tau pS181, have also shown promising results. However, the measurement of such markers currently relies on antibody-based immunoassays that have shown variability, leading to discrepant results across laboratories. To date, mass spectrometry methods developed to evaluate CSF tau and A,1342 are not compatible. We present in this article the development of a mass-spectrometry-based method of quantification for CSF tau and A beta(42) in parallel. The absolute concentrations of tau and A beta(42) we measured are on average 50 ng/mL (7-130 ng/mL) and 7.1 ng/mL (3-13 ng/mL), respectively. Analyses of CSF tau and A beta(42), in a cohort of patients with AD, mild cognitive impairment, and healthy controls (30 subjects), provide significant group differences evaluated with ROC curves (AUC(control-AD) and AUC((control-MCI)) = 1, AUC((MCI-AD))) = 0.76), with at least equivalent diagnostic utility to immunoassay measurements in the same sample set. Finally, a significant and negative correlation was found between the tau and A beta peptides ratio and the disease severity.

In this study, we tested the hypothesis that MT1-MMP is subject to protein kinase C (PKC)-mediated regulation, which alters intracellular trafficking and activity with TAAs. Methods: Levels of MMP-2, native and phosphorylated MT1-MMP, and PKC-d were measured in aortic tissue from patients with small TAAs (< 5 cm; n = 8) and large TAAs (> 6.5 cm; n = 8), and compared with values measured in normal controls (n = 8). Cellular localization of green fluorescent protein (GFP)-tagged MT1-MMP was assessed in aortic fibroblasts isolated from control and 4-week TAA mice. The effects of PKC-mediated phosphorylation on MT1-MMP cellular localization and function (active MMP-2 vs phospo-Smad2 abundance) were assessed after treatment with a PKC activator (phorbol-12-myristate-13-acetate [PMA], 100 nM) with and without a PKC-delta-specific inhibitor (rottlerin, 3 mM). Results: Compared with controls, MT1-MMP abundance was increased in aortas from both TAA groups. Active MMP-2 was increased only in the large TAA group. The abundances of phosphorylated MT1-MMP and activated PKC-d were enhanced in the small TAA group compared with the large TAA group. MT1-MMP was localized on the plasma membrane in aortic fibroblasts from control mice and in endosomes from TAA mice. Treatment with PMA induced MT1-MMP-GFP internalization, enhanced phospho-Smad2, and reduced MMP-2 activation, whereas rottlerin pretreatment inhibited these effects. Conclusions: Phosphorylation of MT1-MMP mediates its activity through directing cellular localization, shifting its role from MMP-2 activation to intracellular signaling. Thus, targeted inhibition of MT1-MMP may have therapeutic relevance as an approach to attenuating TAA development.

TI A novel method of optimizing patient- and family-centered care in the ICU SO JOURNAL OF TRAUMA AND ACUTE CARE SURGERY LA English DT Article DE Patient- and family-centered care; communication; satisfaction; quality ID CRITICALLY-ILL PATIENTS; EVALUATION APACHE IV; LENGTH-OF-STAY; CARDIOPULMONARY-RESUSCITATION; ACUTE PHYSIOLOGY; UNIT PATIENTS; SATISFACTION; NEEDS; GUIDELINES; MORTALITY AB BACKGROUND Patient- and family-centered care permeates critical care where there are often multiple teams involved in management. A method of facilitating information sharing to support shared decision making is essential in appropriately rendering care. This study sought to determine whether incorporating family members on rounds in the intensive care unit (ICU) improves patient and family knowledge and whether doing so improves team time management and satisfaction with the process. METHODS A nonrandomized comparative before-and-after trial of incorporating family members on rounds (July to December 2009 vs January to July 2010) in a single quarternary center's surgical ICU assessed (1) family members' knowledge, (2) nurse's and physician's satisfaction with the intervention, (3) frequency and timing of family meetings, and (4) physician's workflow. RESULTS Intensive care unit demographics and use were similar between time frames. Presurvey (n = 412 family members; 49 nurses) and postsurvey (n = 427 family members; 47 nurses) were coupled with presurvey (n = 5) and postsurvey (n = 6) physicians' informal feedback. Family knowledge of the clinical course and plans increased from 146 (35.4%) of 412 to 374 (87.6%) of 427 (p < 0.0001). Nurses were nearly uniformly satisfied with planned family interaction on rounds (presurvey: 9/49 [18.4%] vs postsurvey: 46/47 [97.9%]; p < 0.0001). Family meetings per week outside of rounds substantially decreased from a mean of 5.3 2.7 to 0.3 0.9; p < 0.001). Goals of therapy including end-of-life care became an element frequently discussed on rounds with families (presurvey: 9.4% +/- 4.7% vs postsurvey: 82.5% +/- 14.8%; p < 0.0001). One intensivist was dissatisfied with the process. CONCLUSION Incorporating family members on rounds in the ICU improves communication and satisfaction and shifts the team's time away from family communication events outside of rounds, condensing most of those activities within the rounding structure. Critical care nurses and intensivists were principally satisfied with the process. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Therapeutic, level III.

The primary aim of this exploratory pilot study was to assess the associations between multiple sphingolipid species including DSL and free amino acids and the presence of symptomatic neuropathy in a DCCT/EDIC type 1 diabetes subcohort. Using mass spectroscopy, plasma levels of DSL and free amino acids in DCCT/EDIC type 1 diabetes participants (n = 80), with and without symptoms of neuropathy, were investigated. Patient-determined neuropathy was based on 15-item self-administered questionnaire (Michigan Neuropathy Screening Instrument) developed to assess distal symmetrical peripheral neuropathy in diabetes. Patients who scored ae4, or reported inability to sense their feet during walking or to distinguish hot from cold water while bathing were considered neuropathic. Plasma levels of ceramide, sphingomyelin, hexosyl- and lactosylceramide species, and amino acids were measured and analyzed relative to neuropathy status in the patient. Deoxy-C24-ceramide, C24- and C26-ceramide were higher in patients with neuropathy than those without neuropathy. Cysteine was higher in patients with neuropathy. No differences in other sphingolipids or amino acids were detected. The covariate-adjusted Odds Ratios of positive patient-reported neuropathy was associated with increased levels of deoxy-C24-, and deoxy-C24:1-ceramide; C22-, C24-, and C26-ceramide; and cysteine. Plasma deoxy-ceramide and ceramide species may have potential diagnostic and prognostic significance in diabetic neuropathy.

Yaffe, Kristine TI Subjective and objective cognitive function among older adults with a history of traumatic brain injury: A population-based cohort study SO PLOS MEDICINE LA English DT Article ID TBI IDENTIFICATION METHOD; ALZHEIMERS-DISEASE; HEAD-INJURY; RISK-FACTOR; DEMENTIA; RELIABILITY; ASSOCIATION; VETERANS; VALIDITY; HEALTH AB Background Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is extremely common across the lifespan and is an established risk factor for dementia. The cognitive profile of the large and growing population of older adults with prior TBI who do not have a diagnosis of dementia, however, has not been well described. Our aim was to describe the cognitive profile associated with prior TBI exposure among community-dwelling older adults without dementia-an understudied but potentially vulnerable population. Methods and findings In this population-based cohort study, we studied 984 community-dwelling older adults (age 51 y and older and their spouses) without dementia who had been randomly selected from respondents to the 2014 wave of the Health and Retirement Study to participate in a comprehensive TBI survey and who either reported no prior TBI (n = 737) or prior symptomatic TBI resulting in treatment in a hospital (n = 247). Mean time since first TBI was 38 +/- 19 y. Outcomes assessed included measures of global cognitive function, verbal episodic memory, semantic fluency, and calculation as well as a measure of subjective memory ("How would you rate your memory at the present time?"). We compared outcomes between the two TBI groups using regression models adjusting for demographics, medical comorbidities, and depression. Sensitivity analyses were performed stratified by TBI severity (no TBI, TBI without loss of consciousness [LOC], and TBI with LOC). Respondents with TBI were younger (mean age 64 +/- 10 y versus 68 +/- 11 y), were less likely to be female, and had higher prevalence of medical comorbidities and depression than respondents without TBI. Respondents with TBI did not perform significantly differently from respondents without TBI on any measure of objective cognitive function in either raw or adjusted models (fully adjusted: global cognitive function score 15.4 versus 15.2, p = 0.68; verbal episodic memory score 4.4 versus 4.3, p = 0.79; semantic fluency score 15.7 versus 14.0, p = 0.21; calculation impairment 22% versus 26%, risk ratio [RR] [95% CI] = 0.86 [0.67 +/- 1.11], p = 0.24). Sensitivity analyses stratified by TBI severity produced similar results. TBI was associated with significantly increased risk for subjective memory impairment in models adjusted for demographics and medical comorbidities (29% versus 24%; RR [95% CI]: 1.26 [1.02 +/- 1.57], p = 0.036). After further adjustment for active depression, however, risk for subjective memory impairment was no longer significant (RR [95% CI]: 1.18 [0.95 +/- 1.47], p = 0.13). Sensitivity analyses revealed that risk of subjective memory impairment was increased only among respondents with TBI with LOC and not among those with TBI without LOC. Furthermore, the risk of subjective memory impairment was significantly greater among those with TBI with LOC versus those without TBI even after adjustment for depression (RR [95% CI]: partially adjusted, 1.38 [1.09 +/- 1.74], p = 0.008; fully adjusted, 1.28 [1.01 +/- 1.61], p = 0.039). Conclusions In this population-based study of community-dwelling older adults without dementia, those with prior TBI with LOC were more likely to report subjective memory impairment compared to those without TBI even after adjustment for demographics, medical comorbidities, and active depression. Lack of greater objective cognitive impairment among those with versus without TBI may be due to poor sensitivity of the cognitive battery or survival bias, or may suggest that post-TBI cognitive impairment primarily affects executive function and processing speed, which were not rigorously assessed in this study. Our findings show that among community-dwelling non-demented older adults, history of TBI is common but may not preferentially impact cognitive domains of episodic memory, attention, working memory, verbal semantic fluency, or calculation.

In the current study, we investigated the effects of supplementing computerized neurocognitive training with social cognitive exercises, as compared with neurocognitive training alone. Method: In this ongoing, double-blind, randomized controlled trial of 111 participants with psychosis, we compare the effects of supplementing intensive targeted cognitive training with social cognitive training exercises (TCT + SCT) with the effects of targeted cognitive training alone (TCT-only). Participants were assessed on cognition, symptoms, functional capacity, and functional outcomes, as well as social cognition and measures related to reward processing. Results: Both treatment groups showed significant improvement in multiple cognitive domains and improvement in functional capacity. However, as predicted, TCT + SCT group participants showed significant improvement in prosody identification and reward processing relative to TCT-only participants. Conclusions and Implications for Practice: Our findings indicate that supplementing intensive computerized cognitive training with social cognitive exercises in people with psychosis confers greater benefits in prosody identification and reward processing relative to cognitive training alone, even though both approaches drive significant improvements in cognition and functional capacity. Impairments in both prosody identification and reward processing have been associated with greater negative symptoms and poorer functional outcomes in schizophrenia, raising the possibility that this form of treatment may lead to better long-term outcomes than traditional cognitive training approaches. Follow-up assessments will determine whether results are durable and generalize over time to improvements in symptoms and functioning. C1 [Fisher, Melissa] Univ Minnesota, Minneapolis, MN 55455 USA.

However, more research is needed to identify the unique predictors of distressing psychological symptoms when both combat-related and sexual trauma are considered, particularly as women's combat exposure in the military increases. Female veterans who had attended at least one appointment at a large Veterans Health Administration medical center were invited to complete questionnaires about traumatic military exposures and psychiatric symptoms. A total of 403 veterans responded, with 383 respondents' data used in analyses. Multiple regression analyses were conducted with trauma exposure items entered simultaneously to determine their association with symptoms of (1) PTSD and (2) depression. Sexual assault had the strongest relationship with both posttraumatic and depressive symptoms. Sexual assault, sexual harassment, feeling in danger of being killed, and seeing others killed/injured were associated with symptoms of PTSD, but only sexual assault and sexual harassment were associated with symptoms of depression, even when accounting for several aspects of combat exposure. Improving assessment for trauma exposure and developing treatments personalized to type of trauma experienced are important clinical research priorities as female service members' roles in the military expand.

As 100% methanol induced severe deformations to the slices (including rolling and folding over), we tried to decrease methanol concentration. We found that 33.3% to 75% methanol could result in ideal immunostaining of basal bodies without inducing obvious deformations. Instead of treating slices at -20 degrees C (without proper cryoprotection measurements) as suggested in previous studies, we carried out methanol treatment at room temperature. Our modified protocol can not only raise immunostaining efficiency in tissue slices, it may also prevent potential freezing damages to the samples.

TI A Daily Diary Study of Posttraumatic Stress Symptoms and Romantic Partner Accommodation SO BEHAVIOR THERAPY LA English DT Article DE PTSD; romantic relationships; accommodation; maintenance ID SOCIAL SUPPORT; DISORDER; PTSD; VETERANS; EXPOSURE; OUTCOMES; THERAPY; COMBAT; SCALE; COMMUNICATION AB Little is known about the role of romantic partner symptom accommodation in PTSD symptom maintenance. To explore the bidirectional associations of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptoms and romantic partner symptom accommodation over time, military servicemen (n = 64) with symptoms of PTSD and their cohabiting heterosexual civilian romantic partners (n = 64) completed a 2-week daily diary study. Cross-lagged, autoregressive models assessed the stability of men's PTSD symptoms and partners' accommodation, as well as the prospective associations of earlier PTSD symptoms with later accommodation and vice versa. Analyses used Bayesian estimation to provide point estimates (b) and Credible Intervals (CIs). In all models, PTSD symptoms (total and individual clusters) were highly stable (b = 0.91; CI: 0.88-0.95), and accommodation was moderately stable (b = 0.48; CI: 0.40-0.54). In all models, earlier PTSD symptoms (total and clusters) were significantly, positively associated with later accommodation (b = 0.04; CI: 0.02-0.07). In contrast, earlier accommodation was significantly associated only with later situational avoidance (b = 0.02; CI: 0.00-0.07). Thus, PTSD symptoms may lead to subsequent accommodating behaviors in romantic partners, but partner accommodation seems to contribute only to survivors' future situational avoidance symptoms. The findings reinforce the notion that PTSD symptoms have an impact on relationship behaviors, and that accommodation from partners may sustain avoidant behaviors in particular. Clinicians should attend to romantic partners' accommodating behaviors when working with survivors.

Couples (N= 64) completed a 17-minute videotaped conflict discussion, and their interaction behavior was coded using the circumplex-based Structural Analysis of Social Behavior model (SASB; Benjamin, 1979, 1987, 2000). Within couples, the behavior of partners was very similar. Compared to military couples without PTSD, couples with PTSD displayed more interpersonal hostility and control. Couples with PTSD also exhibited more sulking, blaming, and controlling behavior, and less affirming and connecting behavior, than couples without PTSD. Results advance our understanding of the relational impacts of PTSD on military service members and their partners, and underscore the value of couple-based interventions for PTSD in the context of relationship distress.

The incidence of acute kidney injury (AKI) has increased, and its impact on clinical outcomes as well as medical expenditures has been established. The role, indications and technological advancements of renal replacement therapy (RRT) have evolved, allowing more effective therapies with less complications. With these changes, Critical Care Nephrology has become an established specialty, and ongoing collaborations between critical care physicians and nephrologist have improved education of multi-disciplinary team members and patient care in the ICU. Multidisciplinary programs to support these changes have been stablished in some hospitals to maximize the delivery of care, while other programs have continue to struggle in their ability to acquire the necessary resources to maximize outcomes, educate their staff, and develop quality initiatives to evaluate and drive improvements. Clearly, the role of the nephrologist in the ICU has evolved, and varies widely among institutions. This special article will provide insights that will hopefully optimize the role of the nephrologist as the leader of the acute care nephrology program, as clinician for critically ill patients, and as teacher for all members of the health care team.

Veterans may be at elevated risk of psychosocial distress at the end of life, and understanding their mental healthcare needs may help identify hospitalized patients to whom psychiatric services should be targeted. Objective: To examine mental illness prevalence and mental health treatment rates among a national sample of hospitalized veterans with serious physical illnesses. Design, Subjects, and Measurements: This was a retrospective study of 11,286 veterans hospitalized in a Veterans Health Administration acute care facility in fiscal year 2011 with diagnoses of advanced cancer, congestive heart failure, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and/or advanced HIV/AIDS. Prevalent and incident mental illness diagnoses during and before hospitalization and rates of psychotherapy and psychotropic use among patients with incident depression and anxiety were measured. Results: At least one-quarter of the patients in our sample had a mental illness or substance use disorder. The most common diagnoses at hospitalization were depression (11.4%), followed by alcohol abuse or dependence (5.5%), and post-traumatic stress disorder (4.9%). Of the 831 patients with incident past-year depression and 258 with incident past-year anxiety, nearly two-thirds received at least some psychotherapy or guideline-concordant medication within 90 days of diagnosis. Of 191 patients with incident depression and 47 with incident anxiety at time of hospitalization, fewer than half received mental healthcare before discharge. Conclusions: Many veterans hospitalized with serious physical illnesses have comorbid mental illnesses and may benefit from depression and anxiety treatment.

Although the acquired versions of TTP and HUS are generally highest on this broad differential, multiple rarer entities can produce a clinical picture similar to TTP/HUS, including microangiopathic hemolysis, renal failure, and neurologic compromise. More recent analysis has discovered a host of genetic factors that can produce microangiopathic hemolytic syndromes. This article discusses the current understanding of thrombotic microangiopathy and outlines the pathophysiology and causative agents associated with each distinct syndrome as well as the most accepted treatments.

In cases of IRIS associated with tuberculosis (TB), two distinct patterns of disease are recognized: (i) the progression of subclinical TB to clinical disease after the initiation of ART, referred to as unmasking, and (ii) the progression or appearance of new clinical and/or radiographic disease in patients with previously recognized TB after the initiation of ART, the classic or "paradoxical" TB-IRIS. IRIS can potentially occur in all granulomatous diseases, not just infectious ones. All granulomatous diseases are thought to result from interplay of inflammatory cells and mediators. One of the inflammatory cells thought to be integral to the development of the granuloma is the CD4 T lymphocyte. Therefore, HIV-infected patients with noninfectious granulomatous diseases such as sarcoidosis may also develop IRIS reactions. Here, we describe IRIS in HIV-infected patients with TB and sarcoidosis and review the basic clinical and immunological aspects of these phenomena. C1 [Church, L. W.

TI Comparison of Physician Implicit Racial Bias Toward Adults Versus Children SO ACADEMIC PEDIATRICS LA English DT Article DE implicit bias; pediatric health care disparities; physician implicit attitudes; racial bias; racial disparities ID ASSOCIATION TEST; ACHIEVEMENT GAP; EXPLICIT ATTITUDES; AFRICAN-AMERICANS; UNCONSCIOUS RACE; MEDICAL-STUDENTS; DECISION-MAKING; HEALTH-CARE; BLACK; STEREOTYPES AB BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: The general population and most physicians have implicit racial bias against black adults. Pediatricians also have implicit bias against black adults, albeit less than other specialties. There is no published research on the implicit racial attitudes of pediatricians or other physicians toward children. Our objectives were to compare implicit racial bias toward adults versus children among resident physicians working in a pediatric emergency department, and to assess whether bias varied by specialty (pediatrics, emergency medicine, or other), gender, race, age, and year of training. METHODS: We measured implicit racial bias of residents before a pediatric emergency department shift using the Adult and Child Race Implicit Association Tests (IATs). Generalized linear models compared Adult and Child IAT scores and determined the association of participant demographics with Adult and Child IAT scores. RESULTS: Among 91 residents, we found moderate pro-white/anti-black bias on both the Adult (mean = 0.49, standard deviation = 0.34) and Child Race IAT (mean = 0.55, standard deviation = 0.37). There was no significant difference between Adult and Child Race IAT scores (difference = 0.06, P = .15). Implicit bias was not associated with resident demographic characteristics, including specialty. CONCLUSIONS: This is the first study demonstrating that resident physicians have implicit racial bias against black children, similar to levels of bias against black adults. Bias in our study did not vary by resident demographic characteristics, including specialty, suggesting that pediatric residents are as susceptible as other physicians to implicit bias. Future studies are needed to explore how physicians' implicit attitudes toward parents and children may impact inequities in pediatric health care.

TI Chronic kidney disease and obesity bias surrogate estimates of insulin sensitivity compared with the hyperinsulinemic euglycemic clamp SO AMERICAN JOURNAL OF PHYSIOLOGY-ENDOCRINOLOGY AND METABOLISM LA English DT Article ID GLUCOSE-TOLERANCE TEST; RENAL-DISEASE; FATTY-ACIDS; RESISTANCE; CLEARANCE; INDEX; HOMEOSTASIS; SECRETION; VALIDATION; METABOLISM AB Insulin sensitivity can be measured by procedures such as the hyperinsulinemic euglycemic clamp or by using surrogate indices. Chronic kidney disease (CKD) and obesity may differentially affect these measurements because of changes in insulin kinetics and organ-specific effects on insulin sensitivity. In a cross-sectional study of 59 subjects with nondiabetic CKD [estimated glomerular filtration rate: (GFR) , 60 ml.min(-1.)1.73 m(2)] and 39 matched healthy controls, we quantified insulin sensitivity by clamp (SIclamp), oral glucose tolerance test, and fasting glucose and insulin. We compared surrogate insulin sensitivity indices to SIclamp using descriptive statistics, graphical analyses, correlation coefficients, and linear regression. Mean age was 62.6 yr; 48% of the participants were female, and 77% were Caucasian. Insulin sensitivity indices were 8-38% lower in participants with vs. without CKD and 13-59% lower in obese compared with nonobese participants. Correlations of surrogate indices with SIclamp did not differ significantly by CKD or obesity status. Adjusting for SIclamp in addition to demographic factors, Matsuda index was 15% lower in participants with vs. without CKD (P = 0.09) and 36% lower in participants with vs. without obesity (P = 0.0001), whereas 1/HOMA-IR was 23% lower in participants with vs. without CKD (P = 0.02) and 46% lower in participants with vs. without obesity (P = 0.0001). We conclude that CKD and obesity do not significantly alter correlations of surrogate insulin sensitivity indices with SIclamp, but they do bias surrogate measurements of insulin sensitivity toward lower values. This bias may be due to differences in insulin kinetics or organ-specific responses to insulin.

TI Case-Series: Concurrent Treatment of PTSD and Alcohol Use Disorder via Telehealth in a Female Iraq Veteran SO AMERICAN JOURNAL ON ADDICTIONS LA English DT Article ID POSTTRAUMATIC-STRESS-DISORDER; PROLONGED EXPOSURE THERAPY; DEPENDENCE AB Background and Objectives: A growing literature provides evidence for the use of integrated treatments (e.g., Concurrent Treatment of PTSD and Substance Use Disorders Using Prolonged Exposure; COPE); however, no known studies have applied COPE via telehealth. Method: COPE was delivered via telehealth to treat one black female veteran with combat trauma and alcohol use disorder. Results: The patient demonstrated significant reductions in alcohol consumption and PTSD and depressive symptoms. Conclusions and Scientific Significance: Although preliminary, findings demonstrate that integrated treatment via telehealth is feasible and effective, and may be useful for female veterans reluctant to seek services at male-dominated VAMCs.

TI Case-Series: Naltrexone for the Treatment of Comorbid Tobacco and Pornography Addiction SO AMERICAN JOURNAL ON ADDICTIONS LA English DT Article ID SMOKING-CESSATION; CONTROLLED-TRIAL; ALCOHOL; AUGMENTATION; DISORDER; BEHAVIOR AB Background and Objectives: Co-occurring addictive disorders are common, however treatment strategies for this population have not been extensively studied. This is especially the case for behavioral addictions. Methods: We present a patient (N = 1) with tobacco use disorder and problematic pornography use treated with naltrexone. Results: Naltrexone treatment resulted in a decrease in pornography viewing and cigarette smoking, however had the adverse effect of anhedonia. A lower dose modestly impacted pornography viewing but not smoking. Discussions and Conclusions: Relevant literature regarding co-occurring addictions as well as use of naltrexone is reviewed. Scientific Significance: This report represents the first case of tobacco and pornography co-addiction in the literature and supports the assertion that treatment of one addictive disorder can benefit another in the dually addicted patient. The efficacy of naltrexone for smoking is notable as previous studies of naltrexone in smoking have been disappointing. This case suggests future treatment strategies for comorbid addictions.

TI Emergence of Ceftazidime-Avibactam Resistance Due to Plasmid-Borne bla(KPC-3) Mutations during Treatment of Carbapenem-Resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae Infections SO ANTIMICROBIAL AGENTS AND CHEMOTHERAPY LA English DT Article DE ceftazidime-avibactam; resistance; carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae; Klebsiella pneumoniae; Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase,sequence type 258 ID SEQUENCE TYPE 258; BETA-LACTAMASE; US HOSPITALS; ENTEROBACTERIACEAE; KPC; BACTEREMIA; MORTALITY; EVOLUTION; VARIANTS; THERAPY AB Ceftazidime-avibactam is a novel beta lactam/ beta-lactamase inhibitor with activity against carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) that produce Kleb-siella pneumoniae carbapenemase (KPC). We report the first cases of ceftazidimeavibactam resistance to develop during treatment of CRE infections and identify resistance mechanisms. Ceftazidime-avibactam-resistant K. pneumoniae emerged in three patients after ceftazidime-avibactam treatment for 10 to 19 days. Wholegenome sequencing (WGS) of longitudinal ceftazidime-avibactam-susceptible and -resistant K. pneumoniae isolates was used to identify potential resistance mechanisms. WGS identified mutations in plasmid-borne bla(KPC-3), which were not present in baseline isolates. bla(KPC-3) mutations emerged independently in isolates of a novel sequence type 258 sublineage and resulted in variant KPC-3 enzymes. The mutations were validated as resistance determinants by measuring MICs of ceftazidime-avibactam and other agents following targeted gene disruption in K. pneumoniae, plasmid transfer, and blaKPC cloning into competent Escherichia coli. In rank order, the impact of KPC-3 variants on ceftazidime-avibactam MICs was as follows: D179Y/T243M double substitution > D179Y > V240G. Remarkably, mutations reduced meropenem MICs >= 4-fold from baseline, restoring susceptibility in K. pneumoniae from two patients. Cefepime and ceftriaxone MICs were also reduced >= 4-fold against D179Y/T243M and D179Y variant isolates, but susceptibility was not restored. Reverse transcription-PCR revealed that expression of bla(KPC-3) encoding D179Y/T243M and D179Y variants was diminished compared to bla(KPC-3) expression in baseline isolates. In conclusion, the development of resistance-conferring bla(KPC-3) mutations in K. pneumoniae within 10 to 19 days of ceftazidime-avibactam exposure is troubling, but clinical impact may be ameliorated if carbapenem susceptibility is restored in certain isolates.

A study of daclizumab as acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis after unrelated bone marrow transplantation was conducted before the importance of CD25(+)FOXP3(+) regulatory T cells (Tregs) was recognized. Tregs can abrogate the onset of GVHD. The relation between Tregs and a graft-versus-malignancy effect is not fully understood. An international, multicenter, double-blind clinical trial randomized 210 adult or pediatric patients to receive 5 weekly doses of daclizumab at 0.3 mg/kg (n = 69) or 1.2 mg/kg (n = 76) or placebo (n = 65) after unrelated marrow transplantation for treatment of hematologic malignancies or severe aplas-, tic anemia. The risk of acute GVHD did not differ among the groups (P =.68). Long-terrri follow-up of clinical outcomes and correlative analysis of peripheral blood T cell phenotype suggested that the patients treated with daclizumab had an increased risk of chronic GVHD (hazard ratio [HR]. 1.49; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.0 to 2.3; P =.08) and a decreased risk of relapse (HR, 0.57; 95% CI, 0.3 to 1.0; P =.05), but similar survival (HR, 0.89; 95% CI, 0.6 to 1.3; P =.53). T cells from a subset of patients (n = 107) were analyzed by flow cytometry. Compared with placebo, treatment with daclizumab decreased the proportion of Tregs among CD4 T cells at days 11-35 and increased the proportion of central memory cells among CD4 T cells at 1 year. Prophylactic administration of daclizumab does not prevent acute GVHD, but may increase the risk of chronic GVHD and decrease the risk of relapse. By delaying Treg reconstitution and promoting immunologic memory, anti-CD25 therapy may augment alloreactivity and antitumor immunity.

TI Hypertension after injury among burned combat veterans: A retrospective cohort study SO BURNS LA English DT Article DE Burns; Hypertension; Acute kidney injury; War; Veterans ID CARDIOVASCULAR-DISEASE; CHILDREN; SYSTEM; PREVALENCE; SURVIVORS; RISK AB Background: The long-term health effects of burn are poorly understood. We sought to evaluate the relationship between burn and the subsequent development of hypertension. Methods: Retrospective cohort study of patients admitted to our burn center from 2003 to 2010. Data collected included demographic variables, burn size, injury severity score, presence of inhalation injury, serum creatinine, need for renal replacement therapy, as well as days spent in the hospital, in the intensive care unit and on mechanical ventilation. Data for the subsequent diagnosis of hypertension was obtained from medical records. Cox proportional hazard regression models were performed to determine what factors were associated with hypertension. Results: Of the 711 patients identified, 670 were included for analysis after exclusions. After adjustment, only age (HR 1.06 per one year increase, 95% confidence interval 1.03-1.08; p<0.001), percentage of total body surface area burned (HR 1.11 per 5% increase, 95% confidence interval 1.04-1.19; p=0.002) and acute kidney injury (HR 1.68, 95% confidence interval 1.05-2.69; p=0.03) were associated with hypertension. Conclusion: Burn size is independently associated with the subsequent risk of hypertension in combat casualties. Clinical support for primary prevention techniques to reduce the incidence of hypertension specific to burn patients may be warranted. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

As many as 17-44% of patients, however, exhibit only partial response to therapy. Most extant GERD patient-reported outcome (PRO) instruments fail to meet development best practices as described by the FDA (Talley and Wiklund in Qual Life Res 14:21-33, 2005; Van Pinxteren et al. in Cochrane Database Syst Rev 18:CD002095, 2004; El-Serag et al. in Aliment Pharmacol Ther 32:720-737, 2010). To develop and validate a PRO instrument for clinical trials involving patients with GERD who are PPI partial responders. We prepared a systematic literature review, held patient focus groups, convened an expert panel, and conducted cognitive interviews to establish content validity. Eligible participants took PPI therapy for at least 8 weeks, had undergone an upper endoscopy, and scored at least 8 points on the GerdQ [6]. Qualitative data guided development of 26 draft items. Items were reviewed by expert panels and debriefed with patients. The resulting 21-item instrument underwent psychometric evaluation during a Phase IIB trial. During the trial, confirmatory factor analysis (n = 220) resulted in a four-factor model displaying the highest goodness of fit. All domains had a high inter-item correlation (Cronbach's alpha > 0.8). Test-retest reliability and convergent validity were strong, with highly significant (p < 0.01) correlations between average weekly PRISM scores and severity anchors and significant (p < 0.05) correlations with anchor subscales. Cumulative distribution functions revealed significant differences between responders and non-responders. Analysis in a clinical trial setting demonstrated strong psychometric properties suggesting validity of PRISM. Developed in line with FDA guidance on PROs, PRISM represents an important new outcome measure for patients with GERD with a partial response to PPI therapy.

TI Exposure to DDT and diabetic nephropathy among Mexican Americans in the 1999-2004 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey SO ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION LA English DT Article DE DDT (dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane); DDE (dichlorodiphenyldichloroethylene); Diabetes; Kidney disease ID CHRONIC KIDNEY-DISEASE; ORGANOCHLORINE PESTICIDES; BREAST-CANCER; ASSOCIATION; ACCULTURATION; POLYMORPHISM; PREVALENCE; HISPANICS; TRENDS; WOMEN AB Concentrations of the pesticide DDT (dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane) and its metabolite DDE (dichlorodiphenyldichloroethylene), in the blood of Mexican Americans, were evaluated to determine their relationships with diabetes and diabetic nephropathy. The data were derived from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 1999-2004 (unweighted N = 1,411, population estimate = 13,760,609). The sample included teens, 12-19 years old, which accounted for 19.8% of the data. The time of the study overlapped the banning of DDT in Mexico in the year 2000, and those participants born in Mexico were exposed to DDT before they immigrated to the US. We sought to better understand the relationship of DDT with diabetes in a race/ethnicity group prone to develop diabetes and exposed to DDT. In this study, nephropathy was defined as urinary albumin to creatinine ratio >30 mg/g, representing microalbuminuria and macroalbuminuria, and total diabetes was defined as diagnosed and undiagnosed diabetes (glycohemoglobin, A1c >= 6.5%). The proportion with the isomer p,p'-DDT >0.086 ng/g (above the maximum limit of detection) was 13.3% for Mexican Americans born in the US, and 36.9% for those born in Mexico. Levels of p,p'-DDT >0.086 ng/g were associated with total diabetes with nephropathy (odds ratio = 4.42, 95% CI 2.23-8.76), and with total diabetes without nephropathy (odds ratio = 2.02, 95% CI 1.19-3.44). The third quartile of p,p'-DDE (2.99-7.67 ng/g) and the fourth quartile of p,p'-DDE (>= 7.68 ng/g) were associated with diabetic nephropathy and had odds ratios of 5.32 (95% CI 1.05-26.87) and 14.95 (95% CI 2.96-75.48) compared to less than the median, respectively, whereas p,p'-DDE was not associated with total diabetes without nephropathy.

TI Modifiers of Response to Treatment With Fesoterodine for Urgency-Predominant Urinary Incontinence in a Randomized Controlled Trial SO FEMALE PELVIC MEDICINE AND RECONSTRUCTIVE SURGERY LA English DT Article; Proceedings Paper CT Annual Scientific Meeting of the American-Urogynecologic-Society (AUGS) CY SEP 27-OCT 01, 2016 CL Denver, CO SP Amer Urogynecol Soc DE fesoterodine; predictors of treatment response; urgency urinary incontinence ID OVERACTIVE BLADDER; TOLERABILITY; EFFICACY; PLACEBO; SAFETY; PHARMACOKINETICS; TOLTERODINE; SOLIFENACIN; PREVALENCE; VALIDATION AB Objective: The aim of this studywas to identify clinical and demographic characteristics that moderate response to treatment with fesoterodine among women with a diagnosis of urgency-predominant urinary incontinence. Methods: A multicenter, double-blinded, 12-week randomized controlled trial of pharmacologic therapy for urgency-predominant urinary incontinence in community-dwelling women diagnosed by the 3-item Incontinence Questionnaire (3IQ) was previously performed. Participants (N = 645) were randomized to fesoterodine therapy (4-8 mg daily; n = 322) or placebo (n = 323). Urinary incontinence was assessed by 3-day voiding diaries. In this secondary analysis, a "responder" was defined as reduction of 50% or greater in overall incontinence episode frequency compared with baseline. Clinical and demographic characteristics that may moderate treatment response were assessed by testing for interaction between characteristics and intervention in logit models of responders, adjusting for clinical site. Results: Participants' ages were a mean of 56 (SD, 14) years, 68% were white race, and they had a mean of 3.9 (SD, 3.0) urgency incontinence episodes per day. There were no baseline differences in demographic, clinical, or incontinence characteristics between treatment and placebo groups or between responders and nonresponders. There was an increase in the proportion of responders to fesoterodine with increasing age (P = 0.04) and parity (0.04) and among married women (P = 0.03), but no effect modification was observed by race/ethnicity, body mass index, education, employment status, or alcohol or tobacco use. Conclusions: In ambulatory women with urgency-predominant urinary incontinence, older age, being married, and higher parity significantly moderated and potentiated the effects of pharmacologic therapy on incontinence frequency. This study identifies certain populations who may have increased responsiveness to treatment with antimuscarinic therapy andmay be used to inform and guide future therapy.

TI Blood urea nitrogen-to-creatinine ratio in the general population and in patients with acute heart failure SO HEART LA English DT Article ID MUSCLE PROTEIN-SYNTHESIS; RECEPTOR ANTAGONIST ROLOFYLLINE; RENAL-FUNCTION; NITROGEN/CREATININE RATIO; POSTABSORPTIVE STATE; VOLUME OVERLOAD; MORTALITY; DYSFUNCTION; WOMEN; RISK AB Objective The blood urea nitrogen-to-creatinine (BUN/creatinine) ratio has been proposed as a useful parameter in acute heart failure (AHF), but data on the normal range and the added value of the ratio compared with its separate components in patients with AHF are lacking. The aim of this study is to define the normal range of BUN/creatinine ratio and to investigate its clinical significance in patients with AHF. Methods In 4484 subjects from the general population without cardiovascular comorbidities, we calculated agespecific and sex-specific normal values of the BUN/creatinine ratio, deriving a higher and lower than normal range of BUN/creatinine ratio (exceeding the 95% prediction intervals). Association of abnormal range to prognosis was tested in 2033 patients with AHF for the outcome of all-cause death through 180 days, death or cardiovascular or renal rehospitalisation through 60 days and heart failure (HF) rehospitalisation within 60 days. Results In a cohort of patients with AHF, 482 (24.6%) and 28 (1.4%) patients with HF were classified into higher and lower than normal range groups, respectively. In Cox regression analysis, higher than normal range of BUN/creatinine ratio group was an independent predictor for all-cause death (HR: 1.86, 95% CI 1.29 to 2.66) and death or cardiovascular or renal rehospitalisation (HR: 1.37, 95% CI 1.03 to 1.82), but not for HF rehospitalisation (HR: 1.23, 95% CI 0.81 to 1.86) after adjustment for other prognostic factors including both creatinine and BUN. Conclusions In patients with AHF, BUN/creatinine higher than age-specific and sex-specific normal range is associated with worse prognosis independently from both creatinine and BUN.

TI RAGE-Mediated Suppression of Interleukin-10 Results in Enhanced Mortality in a Murine Model of Acinetobacter baumannii Sepsis SO INFECTION AND IMMUNITY LA English DT Article DE Acinetobacter baumannii; IL-10; innate immunity; pneumonia; RAGE; receptor for advanced glycation end products; sepsis ID GLYCATION END-PRODUCTS; FACTOR-KAPPA-B; PNEUMOCOCCAL PNEUMONIA; IMMUNE-RESPONSE; SEPTIC SHOCK; RECEPTOR; ACTIVATION; INFECTION; PATHOGENESIS; MICE AB The receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE) is a pattern recognition receptor capable of recognizing multiple pathogen-associated and dangerassociated molecular patterns that contributes to the initiation and potentiation of inflammation in many disease processes. During infection, RAGE functions to either exacerbate disease severity or enhance pathogen clearance depending on the pathogen studied. Acinetobacter baumannii is an opportunistic human pathogen capable of causing severe infections, including pneumonia and sepsis, in impaired hosts. The role of RAGE signaling in response to opportunistic bacterial infections is largely unknown. In murine models of A. baumannii pneumonia, RAGE signaling alters neither inflammation nor bacterial clearance. In contrast, RAGE(-/-) mice systemically infected with A. baumannii exhibit increased survival and reduced bacterial burdens in the liver and spleen. The increased survival of RAGE(-/-) mice is associated with increased circulating levels of the anti-inflammatory cytokine interleukin-10 (IL-10). Neutralization of IL-10 in RAGE(-/-) mice results in decreased survival during systemic A. baumannii infection that mirrors that of wild-type (WT) mice, and exogenous IL-10 administration to WT mice enhances survival in this model. These findings demonstrate the role for RAGE-dependent IL-10 suppression as a key modulator of mortality from Gram-negative sepsis.

Materials and Methods: Two investigators performed independent assessment of ten men's health and urologic diseases (MHUDs) in CDSR for systematic review and protocol representation, which were compared with percentage of total 2010 DALYs for the ten conditions. Data were analyzed for correlation using Spearman rank analysis. Results: Nine of ten MHUDs were represented by at least one CDSR review. There was a poor and statistically insignificant positive correlation between CDSR representation and disease burden (rho = 0.42, p = 0.23). CDSR representation was aligned with disease burden for three conditions, greater than disease burden for one condition, and less than disease burden for six conditions. Conclusions: These results yield high-quality estimates to inform future research prioritization for MHUDs. While prioritization processes are complex and multi-faceted, disease burden should be strongly considered. Awareness of research priority setting has the potential to minimize research disparities on a global scale. C1 [Okland, Tyler; Pederson, Hannah] Univ Colorado, Sch Med, Aurora, CO USA.

The objective of this study was to determine the contribution of trabeculae carneae to the LV diastolic compliance. LV pressure-volume compliance curves were measured in six human heart explants from patients with LV hypertrophy at baseline and following trabecular cutting. The effect of trabecular cutting was also analyzed with finite-element model (FEM) simulations. Our results demonstrated that LV compliance improved after trabecular cutting (p < 0.001). Finite-element simulations further demonstrated that stiffer trabeculae reduce LV compliance further, and that the presence of trabeculae reduced the wall stress in the apex. In conclusion, we demonstrate that integrity of the LV and trabeculae is important to maintain LV stiffness and loss in trabeculae leads to more LV compliance.

Improving our understanding of the geometric differences between bones in different foot types may provide insights into injury risk profiles and have implications for the design of musculoskeletal and finite-element models. In this study, we performed a geometric morphometric analysis on the geometry of metatarsal bones from 65 feet, segmented from computed tomography (CT) scans. These were categorized into four foot types: pes cavus, neutrally aligned, asymptomatic pes planus, and symptomatic pes planus. Generalized procrustes analysis (GPA) followed by permutation tests was used to determine significant shape differences associated with foot type and sex, and principal component analysis was used to find the modes of variation for each metatarsal. Significant shape differences were found between foot types for all the metatarsals (p < 0.01), most notably in the case of the second metatarsal which showed significant pairwise differences across all the foot types. Analysis of the principal components of variation showed pes cavus bones to have reduced cross-sectional areas in the sagittal and frontal planes. The first (p = 0.02) and fourth metatarsals (p = 0.003) were found to have significant sex-based differences, with first metatarsals from females shown to have reduced width, and fourth metatarsals from females shown to have reduced frontal and sagittal plane cross-sectional areas. Overall, these findings suggest that metatarsal bones have distinct morphological characteristics that are associated with foot type and sex, with implications for our understanding of anatomy and numerical modeling of the foot.

While the majority of models to date are created from computed tomography (CT) data, there is increasing interest in creating models from other datasets, such as ultrasound and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). MRI, in particular, holds great potential for 3D printing, given its excellent tissue characterization and lack of ionizing radiation. There are, however, challenges to 3D printing from MRI data as well. Here we review the basics of 3D printing, explore the current strengths and weaknesses of printing from MRI data as they pertain to model accuracy, and discuss considerations in the design of MRI sequences for 3D printing. Finally, we explore the future of 3D printing and MRI, including creative applications and new materials.

Materials and Methods: Consecutive patients who underwent ferumoxytol-enhanced (FE) MRI exams were included. Adverse events (AEs) were classified according to the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events v4.0. In a subgroup of patients examined under general anesthesia, recording of blood pressure, heart rate, oxygen saturation, and end-tidal CO2 was performed. A comparable group of 23 patients who underwent gadofosveset-enhanced (GE) MRI under anesthesia with similar monitoring was also analyzed. Results: In all, 217 unique patients, ages 3 days to 94 years, underwent FE-MRI. No ferumoxytol-related severe, life-threatening, or fatal AEs occurred acutely or at follow-up. Two patients developed ferumoxytol-related nausea. Between-group (FE- vs. GE-MRI) comparisons showed no statistical difference in heart rate (P = 0.69, 95% confidence interval [CI] 96-113 bpm), mean arterial blood pressure (MAP) (P = 0.74, 95% CI 44-52 mmHg), oxygen saturation (P = 0.76, 95% CI 94-98%), and end-tidal CO2 (P = 0.73, 95% CI 31-37 mmHg). No significant change in MAP (P = 0.12, 95% CI 50-58 mmHg) or heart rate (P=0.25, 95% CI 91-105 bpm) was noted between slow infusion of ferumoxytol (n = 113) vs. bolus injection (n = 104). Conclusion: In our single-center experience, no serious AEs occurred with the diagnostic use of ferumoxytol across a wide spectrum of age, renal function, and indications. Because of the limited sample size, firm conclusions cannot be drawn about the generalizability of our results. Thus, vigilance and monitoring are recommended to mitigate potential rare adverse reactions. C1 [Nguyen, Kim-Lien; Yoshida, Takegawa; Han, Fei; Hu, Peng; Finn, J.

TI COMT Val158Met Polymorphism and Symptom Improvement Following a Cognitively Focused Intervention for Irritable Bowel Syndrome SO NURSING RESEARCH LA English DT Article DE catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT) polymorphism; cognitive behavioral therapy; digestive signs and symptoms; irritable bowel syndrome; self-management ID SELF-MANAGEMENT; GASTROINTESTINAL SYMPTOMS; LIFE STRESS; WOMEN; TRIAL; PAIN; ASSOCIATION; DISORDERS; GENOTYPE; BEHAVIOR AB Background: Our nurse-delivered comprehensive self-management (CSM) program, a cognitive behavioral therapy intervention, is effective in reducing gastrointestinal and psychological distress symptoms in patients with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). Findings from non-IBS studies indicate that the catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT) Val158Met polymorphism may moderate the efficacy of cognitive behavioral therapy. It is unknown whether this COMT polymorphism is associated with symptom improvements in patients with IBS. Objective: We tested whether this COMT Val158Met polymorphism influences the efficacy of our 2-month CSM intervention. Methods: We analyzed data from two published randomized controlled trials of CSM. The combined European American sample included 149 women and 23 men with IBS (CSM, n = 111; usual care [UC], n = 61). The primary outcomes were daily reports of abdominal pain, depression, anxiety, and feeling stressed measured 3 and 6 months after randomization. Secondary outcomes were additional daily symptoms, retrospective psychological distress, IBS quality of life, and cognitive beliefs about IBS. The interaction between COMT Val158Met polymorphism and treatment group (CSM vs. UC) in a generalized estimating equation model tested the main objective. Results: At 3 months, participants with at least one Val allele benefited more from CSM than did those with the Met/Met genotype (p =.01 for anxiety and feeling stressed, and p <.16 for abdominal pain and depression). The moderating effect of genotype was weaker at 6 months. Discussion: Persons with at least one Val allele may benefit more from CSM than those homozygous for the Met allele. Future studies with larger and more racially diverse samples are needed to confirm these findings.

TI CD36 is upregulated in mice with periodontitis and metabolic syndrome and involved in macrophage gene upregulation by palmitate SO ORAL DISEASES LA English DT Article DE CD36; metabolic syndrome; periodontitis; lipopolysaccharide ID PORPHYROMONAS-GINGIVALIS LIPOPOLYSACCHARIDE; FATTY-ACID RECEPTORS; BONE LOSS; INSULIN-RESISTANCE; ACTINOBACILLUS-ACTINOMYCETEMCOMITANS; THERAPEUTIC TARGETS; CARDIOVASCULAR RISK; INFLAMMATION; ASSOCIATION; ACTIVATION AB BackgroundWe reported that high-fat diet (HFD)-induced metabolic syndrome (MetS) exacerbates lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated periodontitis and palmitate, the major saturated fatty acid in the HFD, amplified LPS-stimulated gene expression invitro. As CD36 is a major receptor for fatty acids, we investigated periodontal CD36 expression in mice with periodontitis and MetS, and the role of CD36 in inflammatory gene expression in macrophages stimulated by palmitate. MethodsMetS and periodontitis were induced in mice by HFD and periodontal injection of LPS, respectively. The periodontal CD36 expression and its relationship with alveolar bone loss were studied using immunohistochemistry, real-time PCR, and correlation analysis. The role of CD36 in upregulation of inflammatory mediators by LPS and palmitate in macrophages was assessed using pharmacological inhibitor and small interfering RNA. ResultsPeriodontal CD36 expression was higher in mice with both MetS and periodontitis than that in mice with periodontitis or MetS alone and was correlated with osteoclastogenesis and alveolar bone loss. In vitro studies showed that CD36 expression in macrophages was upregulated by LPS and palmitate, and targeting CD36 attenuated palmitate-enhanced gene expression. ConclusionCD36 expression is upregulated in mice with periodontitis and MetS and involved in gene expression in macrophages stimulated by palmitate and LPS. C1 [Lu, Z.; Li, Y.; Brinson, C.

TI Estimating Pediatric Asthma Prevalence in Rural Senegal: A Cross-Sectional Survey SO PEDIATRIC PULMONOLOGY LA English DT Article DE children; Africa; Senegal; epidemiology; asthma; international health ID CHILDHOOD ISAAC; BRONCHIAL HYPERRESPONSIVENESS; ATOPIC ECZEMA; ALLERGIES; QUESTIONNAIRE; SYMPTOMS; CHILDREN; CHALLENGES; COUNTRIES; SEVERITY AB Rationale: In Senegal, the prevalence of childhood asthma and utilization of appropriate asthma therapies is unknown. Methodology: We used the International Study of Asthma and Allergies in Childhood (ISAAC) survey instrument to assess childhood respiratory health in rural Senegal. We interviewed the caregivers of children aged 5 through 8 years of age in the four largest Niakhar villages in August 2012. Results: We interviewed 1,103 primary caregivers for 1,513 children, representing 91% of all age-eligible children in the study area. Overall, 206 (14%) children had wheeze at any time in the past, 130 (9%) had wheeze within the past year, and only 41 (3%) reported a clinical diagnosis of asthma. Among children with wheeze within the past year, 81 (62%) had symptoms of severe asthma. Nocturnal cough was reported in 186 (14%) children who denied any history of wheezing illness. Only four (3%) children with wheeze in the past year had ever received bronchodilator therapy. Children with wheeze in the past year were significantly more likely to seek medical care for respiratory symptoms and to be perceived as less healthy than their peers. Children of lower socioeconomic status were significantly more likely to have wheeze. Conclusions: Nearly one in ten children in Niakhar, Senegal had symptoms suggestive of asthma; however, few children have a diagnosis of asthma or use appropriate therapies. This study highlights an opportunity to raise community awareness of asthma in rural Senegal and to increase access to appropriate medical therapies.. (C) 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

This phenomenon has been relatively underexplored in low-income women, who may already be at an increased risk for poor abortion-related outcomes because of difficulties accessing timely and safe abortion services. METHODSA qualitative study conducted between 2010 and 2013 used semistructured interviews to explore pregnancy intentions among low-income women recruited from six reproductive health clinics in Western Pennsylvania. Transcripts from interviews with 19 participants who were planning to terminate a pregnancy or had had an abortion in the last two weeks were examined through content analysis to identify the range of attitudes they encountered that could contribute to or reflect abortion stigma, the sources of these attitudes and women's responses to them. RESULTSWomen commonly reported that partners, family members and they themselves held antiabortion attitudes. Such attitudes communicated that abortion is morally reprehensible, a rejection of motherhood, rare and thus potentially deviant, detrimental to future fertility and an irresponsible choice. Women reacted to external and internal negative attitudes by distinguishing themselves from other women who obtain abortions, experiencing negative emotions, and concealing or delaying their abortions. CONCLUSIONSWomen's reactions to antiabortion attitudes may perpetuate abortion stigma. Further research is needed to inform interventions to address abortion stigma and improve women's abortion experiences. C1 [Gelman, Amanda] Univ Colorado, Internal Med, Aurora, CO USA.

DESIGN Retrospective cohort study. DATA SOURCE Veterans Health Administration (VHA) national database. PATIENTS A total of 2873 VHA beneficiaries aged 18-89 years who had at least one encounter at any of the similar to 150 VHA hospitals and 800 VHA clinics, had a diagnosis code for CML, and filled at least one prescription for imatinib, nilotinib, or dasatinib between October 1, 2001, and September 30, 2010. MEASUREMENT AND MAIN RESULTS The VHA database was used for the time period of October 1, 2000, to September 30, 2012, allowing for a 1-year observation period to identify CML treatments prior to study enrollment and a minimum of a 2-year follow-up period to assess study end points. Primary study end points included change in TKI treatment, gaps in TKI treatment, TKI treatment persistence, and patient survival. Persistence for each distinct line of treatment was defined as the time of continuous therapy, quantified by the number of days covered by the drug from treatment initiation until a 60-day gap in treatment was identified or a switch in treatment occurred. A Kaplan-Meier model was used to evaluate persistence and survival. Of the 2873 patients receiving first-line TKI treatment, 586 (20.4%) switched to a different TKI, constituting second-line treatment. Overall, 245 patients (8.5%) were switched again to third-line treatment. Only 4.4% of patients receiving first-line treatment experienced a gap in therapy of 60 or more days. First-line treatment persistence rates were 75%, 65%, and 55% for the first, second, and third years of treatment, respectively. Five-year survival with first-line treatment was 62%. CONCLUSION In this national cohort of VHA patients, 1-year persistence of first-line TKI treatment was similar to that in prior studies. Five-year survival was comparable with that in other observational studies but was lower than that in prospective clinical trials. Persistence rates declined after the introduction of the new TKIs.

Although cefazolin is considered as an alternative to the ASPs for patients with nonsevere penicillin allergies, cefazolin offers several pharmacologic advantages over ASPs, such as more convenient dosing regimens, and antimicrobial stewardship programs are increasingly using cefazolin as the preferential agent for MSSA infections as part of cost-saving initiatives. Concerns about susceptibility to hydrolysis by type A beta-lactamases, particularly at high inocula seen in deep-seated infections such as endocarditis; selective pressures from unnecessary gram-negative coverage; and lack of comparative clinical data have precluded recommending cefazolin as a first-line therapy for MSSA bacteremia. Recent clinical studies, however, have suggested similar clinical efficacy but better tolerability, with lower rates of discontinuation due to adverse drug reactions, of cefazolin compared with ASPs. Other variables, such as adequate source control (e.g., intravascular catheter removal, debridement, or drainage) and enhanced pharmacodynamics through aggressive cefazolin dosing, may mitigate the role of cefazolin inoculum effect and factor into determining improved clinical outcomes. In this review, we highlight the utility of cefazolin versus ASPs in the treatment of MSSA bacteremia with a focus on clinical efficacy and safety.

Streptococcus pneumoniae (S. pneumoniae) IgA1P shares no sequence conservation with serine or cysteine types of IgA1Ps or other known proteins, other than a conserved HExxH Zn-binding motif (1604-1608) found in metalloproteases. We have developed a novel expression system to produce the mature S. pneumoniae IgA1P and we have discovered that this form is both attached to the bacterial cell surface and released in its full form. Our data demonstrate that the S. pneumoniae IgA1P comprises two distinct regions that associate to form an active metalloprotease, the first such example of a metalloprotease that can be split in vitro and recombined to form an active enzyme. By capitalizing on this novel domain architecture, we show that the N-terminal region of S. pneumoniae IgA1P comprises the primary binding region for IgA1, although the C-terminal region of S. pneumoniae IgA1P is necessary for cleavage of IgA1. Our findings lend insight into the protein domain architecture of the S. pneumoniae IgA1P and function of this important virulence factor for S. pneumoniae infection.

Since the guidelines for the management of these disorders by the American Thyroid Association (ATA) were first published in 2011, significant clinical and scientific advances have occurred in the field. The aim of these guidelines is to inform clinicians, patients, researchers, and health policy makers on published evidence relating to the diagnosis and management of thyroid disease in women during pregnancy, preconception, and the postpartum period. Methods: The specific clinical questions addressed in these guidelines were based on prior versions of the guidelines, stakeholder input, and input of task force members. Task force panel members were educated on knowledge synthesis methods, including electronic database searching, review and selection of relevant citations, and critical appraisal of selected studies. Published English language articles were eligible for inclusion. The American College of Physicians Guideline Grading System was used for critical appraisal of evidence and grading strength of recommendations. The guideline task force had complete editorial independence from the ATA. Competing interests of guideline task force members were regularly updated, managed, and communicated to the ATA and task force members. Results: The revised guidelines for the management of thyroid disease in pregnancy include recommendations regarding the interpretation of thyroid function tests in pregnancy, iodine nutrition, thyroid autoantibodies and pregnancy complications, thyroid considerations in infertile women, hypothyroidism in pregnancy, thyrotoxicosis in pregnancy, thyroid nodules and cancer in pregnant women, fetal and neonatal considerations, thyroid disease and lactation, screening for thyroid dysfunction in pregnancy, and directions for future research. Conclusions: We have developed evidence-based recommendations to inform clinical decision-making in the management of thyroid disease in pregnant and postpartum women. While all care must be individualized, such recommendations provide, in our opinion, optimal care paradigms for patients with these disorders.

METHODS: These were post hoc multivariable analyses of a large, international, double-blind study (NCT00251979) of patients randomized to high-dose intravenous (IV) esomeprazole (PPI) or placebo for 72 h. Rebleeding rates of patients with PUB SRH treated with either PPI or placebo after successful endoscopic hemostasis were also compared. RESULTS: For patients treated with placebo for 72 h after successful endoscopic hemostasis, rebleed rates by SRH were spurting arterial bleeding (FIA) 22.5%, adherent clot (FIIB) 17.6%, non-bleeding visible vessel (FIIA) 11.3%, and oozing bleeding (FIB) 4.9%. Compared with FIB patients, FIA, FIIB, and FIIA had significantly greater risks of rebleeding with odds ratios (95% CI's) from 2.61 (1.05, 6.52) for FIIA to 6.66 (2.19, 20.26) for FIA. After hemostasis, PUB rebleeding rates for FIB patients at 72 h were similar with esomeprazole (5.4%) and placebo (4.9%), whereas rebleed rates for all other major SRH (FIA, FIIA, FIIB) were lower for PPI than placebo, but the treatment by SRH interaction test was not statistically significant. CONCLUSIONS: After successful endoscopic hemostasis, FIB patients had very low PUB rebleeding rates irrespective of PPI or placebo treatment. This implies that after successful endoscopic hemostasis the prognostic classification of FIB ulcers as a high-risk SRH and the recommendation to treat these with high-dose IV PPI's should be re-evaluated.

Methods This longitudinal cohort of 291 patients with RA was derived from the MRI substudy of the GO-BEFORE randomised controlled trial of golimumab among methotrexate-naive patients. Correlations between RAMRIS scores (synovitis, osteitis, bone erosion) and physical function (Health Assessment Questionnaire (HAQ)), pain and global patient scores were determined at 0, 12, 24 and 52 weeks. Correlations between interval changes were also assessed. Multivariable regression models using robust generalised estimating equations evaluated associations over all time-points and their relationship to other clinical disease activity measures. Results Greater synovitis, osteitis and bone erosion scores were positively associated with HAQ at all time-points (all p<0.05) and with pain and patient global scores at 24 and 52 weeks. Over all visits, synovitis was associated with HAQ, pain and patient global scores (p <= 0.03) independent of clinical disease activity measures. Improvements in synovitis and bone erosion were also associated with improvements in PROs. Less improvement in synovitis and progression in MRI erosion at 52 weeks were both independently associated with worsening in all PROs at 52 weeks while progression on X-ray was not associated. Similar associations were observed across treatment groups. Conclusions MRI measures of inflammation and structural damage correlate independently with physical function, pain and patient global assessments. These observations support the validity of MRI biomarkers. C1 [Baker, Joshua F.] Philadelphia Vet Affairs Med Ctr, Philadelphia, PA USA.

Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and other autoimmune diseases cause significant morbidity. Identifying populations at risk of developing SLE is essential for curtailing irreversible inflammatory damage. The aim of this study was to identify factors associated with transition to classified disease that would inform our understanding of the risk of SLE. Methods. Previously identified blood relatives of patients with SLE, who had <4 American College of Rheumatology (ACR) classification criteria for SLE at baseline, were enrolled in this follow-up study (n=409 unaffected relatives). Participants provided detailed family, demographic, and clinical information, including the SLE-specific portion of the Connective Tissue Disease Screening Questionnaire (SLE-CSQ). Serum and plasma samples were tested for the presence of lupus-associated autoantibodies and 52 soluble mediators. Generalized estimating equations (GEEs) were applied to identify factors predictive of disease transition. Results. Of the 409 unaffected relatives of SLE patients, 45 (11%) had transitioned to classified SLE at follow-up (mean time to follow-up 6.4 years). Relatives who transitioned to SLE displayed more lupus-associated autoantibody specificities and higher SLE-CSQ scores (P<0.0001) at baseline than did relatives who did not transition. Importantly, those who had developed SLE during the follow-up period also had elevated baseline plasma levels of inflammatory mediators, including B lymphocyte stimulator, stem cell factor (SCF), and interferon-associated chemokines (P <= 0.02), with concurrent decreases in the levels of regulatory mediators, transforming growth factor (TGF), and interleukin-10 (P <= 0.03). GEE analyses revealed that baseline SLE-CSQ scores or ACR scores (number of ACR criteria satisfied) and plasma levels of SCF and TGF, but not autoantibodies, were significant and independent predictors of SLE transition (P <= 0.03). Conclusion. Preclinical alterations in levels of soluble mediators may predict transition to classified disease in relatives of SLE patients. Thus, immune perturbations precede SLE classification and can help identify high-risk relatives for rheumatology referral and potential enrollment in prevention trials.

Studying pain sensitivity and the HPA axis could elucidate the role of stress in chronic pain development, which might be influenced by familial factors, including genes. Methods: Associations between pain sensitivity and salivary cortisol and familial confounding in these associations were examined in 88 female, community-based twin pairs (75% monozygotic, mean age 29 y). Cortisol was assessed after 0.25mg dexamethasone (DEX), recovery from 0.25mg DEX, and after 0.5mg DEX. Cold pressor task (CPT) pain ratings were obtained at threshold and at tolerance. Conditioned pain modulation (CPM) was examined using thermal heat as the testing stimulus and hot water as the conditioning stimulus. Generalized estimating equation models were used and adjusted for baseline pain rating, age, and other relevant covariates. Results: After controlling for baseline cortisol, greater cortisol suppression following DEX administration and lower recovery cortisol levels were associated with higher pain ratings at tolerance during the CPT (Bs = -2.42 to -17.82; Ps = 0.031 to < 0.001) as well as with reduced CPM (Bs = -0.92 to -1.68; Ps = 0.003 to 0.046). Interestingly, familial confounding was evident in the CPT and CPM during recovery from DEX administration, but not immediately following DEX administration. Discussion: These findings contribute to understanding possible mechanisms underlying chronic pain by demonstrating that HPA axis response to negative feedback is related to pain sensitivity.

Conceivably, the immunologic and genomic footprint of this resistance is preserved in nonatopic, nonallergic adults and is unmasked during exposure to an aeroallergen. Objective: The aim of this study was to obtain direct support of the epithelial/epidermal barrier model for allergic rhinoconjunctivitis. Methods: Twenty-three adults allergic to house dust mites (HDMs) (M+) and 15 nonsensitive, nonallergic (M-) participants completed 3-hour exposures to aerosolized HDM (Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus) powder on 4 consecutive days in an allergen challenge chamber. We analyzed: (1) peripheral blood leukocyte levels and immune responses; and (2) RNA sequencing-derived expression profiles of nasal cells, before and after HDM exposure. Results: On HDM challenge: (1) onlyM+ persons developed allergic rhinoconjunctivitis symptoms; and (2) peripheral blood leukocyte levels/responses and gene expression patterns in nasal cells were largely concordant between M+ and M- participants; gross differences in these parameters were not observed at baseline (pre-exposure). Two key differences were observed. First, peripheral blood CD4(+) and CD8(+) T-cell activation levels initially decreased in M- participants versus increased in M+ participants. Second, in M-compared with M+ participants, genes that promoted epidermal/epithelial barrier function (eg, filament- aggregating protein [filaggrin]) versus inflammation (eg, chemokines) and innate immunity (interferon) were upregulated versus muted, respectively. Conclusion: An imprint of resistance to HDM challenge in nonatopic, nonallergic adults was muted T-cell activation in the peripheral blood and inflammatory response in the nasal compartment, coupled with upregulation of genes that promote epidermal/epithelial cell barrier function.

TI Urgent Liver Transplantation for Dietary Supplements: An Under-Recognized Problem SO TRANSPLANTATION PROCEEDINGS LA English DT Article ID OXYELITE PRO; HEPATOTOXICITY; HEPATITIS; FAILURE; INJURY; ACID AB Background. The recent outbreak of acute liver failure caused by herbal/dietary supplements (HDS) in Hawaii prompted evaluation of those patients who underwent emergency liver transplantation (LT) for HDS in the United States. Methods. We queried the Scientific Registry of Transplant Recipients (2003-2015) to identify patients who underwent urgent LT for acute hepatic necrosis (AHN) and identified those with HDS use. This group of patients was then characterized. Results. Of 2408 adult cases, 625 were characterized as a drug-induced liver injury. The majority of cases (n = 300) were due to acetaminophen toxicity, but the fourth highest category was due to HDS (n = 21). Of these 21 cases caused by HDS, 13 did not list the specific agent responsible, mean age was 36 years, and all cases occurred after 2007. There probably are more cases because 25% of all LT cases in the study did not list a specific reason for liver failure and 20% of all drug-induced liver failure did not list a specific drug. Conclusions. Herbal/supplement use is the fourth most common cause of drug-induced AHN requiring LT, albeit an underestimation of the problem. Detailed questioning of patients and their support systems regarding herbal/supplement use and better reporting are imperative to further define this problem and identify products that have the potential to lead to liver failure.

TI Differences in Depression Care for Men and Women among Veterans with and without Psychiatric Comorlbidities SO WOMENS HEALTH ISSUES LA English DT Article ID QUALITY-OF-CARE; VA HEALTH-CARE; DISORDERS; SERVICES; DISPARITIES; RESOURCES AB Background: Depression is common among primary care patients, affecting more women than men. Women veterans are an extreme but growing minority among patients seeking care from the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), an organization historically designed to serve men. Little is known about gender differences in depression care quality within the VA primary care population. Purpose: This works assesses the gender differences in depression care among veterans using longitudinal electronic measures. Methods: We undertook a cross-sectional study of all veteran VA primary care users with a new episode of depression from federal fiscal year 2010, covering nine geographically diverse regions. We assessed the quality of depression care based on receipt of minimally appropriate depression treatment within 1 year of a new episode of depression and on receipt of depression-related follow-up visits within 180 days. Minimally appropriate treatment and follow-up were operationalized as meeting or exceeding a minimally appropriate threshold for care, based on national quality measures and expert panel consensus. Regression models were used to produce predicted probabilities for each process outcome accounting for the presence or absence of other psychiatric comorbidities. All models were adjusted for model covariates and clinic clusters (404 sites). Main Findings: In 2010, 110,603 veterans with a primary care visit had a new episode of depression; 10,094 (9%) were women. In multivariate analyses, women had modest yet significantly higher rates of minimally appropriate depression treatment than men, whether patients had depression only (79% of women vs. 76% of men; p < .001) or depression along with other psychiatric comorbidities (92% of women vs. 91% or men; p < .001).

TI Challenges with Implementing a Patient-Centered Medical Home Model for Women Veterans SO WOMENS HEALTH ISSUES LA English DT Article ID PRIMARY-CARE CLINICS; SPECIALTY CARE; HEALTH-CARE; SATISFACTION; EXPERIENCES; CONTINUITY; PHYSICIANS; ACCESS; TRIAL AB Background: The Veterans Health Administration (VA) Patient Aligned Care Team (PACT) initiative aims to ensure that all patients receive care consistent with medical home principles. Women veterans' unique care needs and minority status within the VA pose challenges to delivery of equitable, comprehensive primary care for this population. Currently, little is known about whether and/or how PACT should be tailored to better meet women veterans' needs. Methods: In 2014, we conducted semistructured interviews with 73 primary care providers and staff to examine facilitators and barriers encountered in providing PACT-principled care to women veterans. Respondents were located in eight VA medical centers in eight different states across the United States. Results: Respondents perceived PACT as improving continuity of care for patients and as increasing ability of nursing staff to practice at the top of their license. However, the implementation of core medical home features and team huddles was inconsistent and varied both within and across medical centers. Short staffing, inclusion of part-time providers on teams, balancing performance requirements for continuity and same-day access, and space constraints were identified as ongoing barriers to PACT implementation. Challenges unique to care of women veterans included a higher prevalence of psychosocial needs, the need for specialized training of primary care personnel, and short staffing owing to additional sharing of primary care support staff with specialist providers. Conclusion: Providers and staff face unique challenges in delivering comprehensive primary care to women veterans that may require special policy, practice, and management action if benefits of PACT are to be fully realized for this population.

TI Attitudes, Practices, and Experiences with Implementing a Patient-Centered Medical Home for Women Veterans SO WOMENS HEALTH ISSUES LA English DT Article ID PRIMARY-CARE; HEALTH AB Background: Despite the growing demand for health care among women veterans in the Veterans Health Administration (VHA), little is known about the perspectives of primary care providers (PCPs) and other primary care staff about the care they provide to women veterans. We sought to understand whether barriers to, attitudes about, and practices in caring for women veterans were associated with two measures of implementation of the VHA patient-centered medical home for women veterans (self-efficacy and satisfaction). Methods: We administered a cross-sectional survey by Internet from September 8, 2014, through April 27, 2015 (and by mail from December 16, 2014, through June 18, 2015) to all PCPs and affiliated primary care staff in 12 VHA medical centers. We used descriptive and bivariate analyses to characterize their barriers, attitudes, and practices regarding care for women veterans; and ordinary least squares regression to identify associations with satisfaction and self-efficacy regarding medical home implementation for women veterans among members of a VHA patient-centered medical home teamlet for women patients. Results: Of 775 surveys sent, 288 were completed (94 PCPs and 194 staff) for a response rate of 37% (33% for PCPs; 39% for staff). On average, providers had one female patient for every five patients in their panels. Lower perceived barriers, higher gender-sensitive attitudes, and being a PCP were significantly associated with satisfaction and self-efficacy of patient-centered medical home for women patients. Conclusions: Training efforts focused on eliminating perceived barriers and strengthening positive attitudes toward women may be more successful than changing women's health practice characteristics alone.

TI Identifying Barriers to Hepatocellular Carcinoma Surveillance in a National Sample of Patients With Cirrhosis SO HEPATOLOGY LA English DT Article ID UNITED-STATES; COMPETING RISKS; VETERANS; SURVIVAL; CARE; CANCER; POPULATION; DIAGNOSIS; DISEASE; RATES AB Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in cirrhosis patients. This provides an opportunity to target the highest-risk population, yet surveillance rates in the United States and Europe range from 10% to 40%. The goal of this study was to identify barriers to HCC surveillance, using data from the Veterans Health Administration, the largest provider of liver-related health care in the United States. We included all patients 75 years of age or younger who were diagnosed with cirrhosis from January 1, 2008, until December 31, 2010. The primary outcome was a continuous measure of the percentage of time up-to-date with HCC surveillance (PTUDS) based on abdominal ultrasound (secondary outcomes included computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging). Among 26,577 patients with cirrhosis (median follow-up = 4.7 years), the mean PTUDS was 17.8 +/- 21.5% (ultrasounds) and 23.3 +/- 24.1% when any liver imaging modality was included. The strongest predictor of increased PTUDS was the number of visits to a specialist (gastroenterologist/hepatologist and/or infectious diseases) in the first year after cirrhosis diagnosis; the association between visits to a primary care physician and increasing surveillance was very small. Increasing distance to the closest Veterans Administration center was associated with decreased PTUDS. There was an inverse association between ultrasound lead time (difference between the date an ultrasound was ordered and requested exam date) and the odds of it being performed: odds ratio = 0.77, 95% confidence interval 0.72-0.82 when ordered> 180 days ahead of time; odds ratio = 0.90, 95% confidence interval 0.85-0.94 if lead time 91-180 days. Conclusions: The responsibility for suboptimal surveillance rests with patients, providers, and the overall health care system; several measures can be implemented to potentially increase HCC surveillance, including increasing patient-specialist visits and minimizing appointment lead time.

TI Localized cortical chronic traumatic encephalopathy pathology after single, severe axonal injury in human brain SO ACTA NEUROPATHOLOGICA LA English DT Article DE Traumatic brain injury; Chronic traumatic encephalopathy; Axonal injury; Tau; Neurofibrillary tangle; beta-Amyloid plaque ID AMYLOID PROTEIN DEPOSITION; APOLIPOPROTEIN-E EPSILON-4; HEAD-INJURY; ALZHEIMERS-DISEASE; NEURODEGENERATIVE DISEASES; BETA-PROTEIN; WHITE-MATTER; RISK; DEGENERATION; ASSOCIATION AB Chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE) is a neurodegenerative disease associated with repetitive mild impact traumatic brain injury from contact sports. Recently, a consensus panel defined the pathognomonic lesion for CTE as accumulations of abnormally hyperphosphorylated tau (p-tau) in neurons (neurofibrillary tangles), astrocytes and cell processes distributed around small blood vessels at sulcal depths in irregular patterns within the cortex. The pathophysiological mechanism for this lesion is unknown. Moreover, a subset of CTE cases harbors cortical beta-amyloid plaques. In this study, we analyzed postmortem brain tissues from five institutionalized patients with schizophrenia and history of surgical leucotomy with subsequent survival of at least another 40 years. Because leucotomy involves severing axons bilaterally in prefrontal cortex, this surgical procedure represents a human model of single traumatic brain injury with severe axonal damage and no external impact. We examined cortical tissues at the leucotomy site and at both prefrontal cortex rostral and frontal cortex caudal to the leucotomy site. For comparison, we analyzed brain tissues at equivalent neuroanatomical sites from non-leucotomized patients with schizophrenia, matched in age and gender. All five leucotomy cases revealed severe white matter damage with dense astrogliosis at the axotomy site and also neurofibrillary tangles and p-tau immunoreactive neurites in the overlying gray matter. Four cases displayed p-tau immunoreactivity in neurons, astrocytes and cell processes encompassing blood vessels at cortical sulcal depths in irregular patterns, similar to CTE. The three cases with apolipoprotein E epsilon 4 haplotype showed scattered beta-amyloid plaques in the overlying gray matter, but not the two cases with apolipoprotein E epsilon 3/3 genotype. Brain tissue samples from prefrontal cortex rostral and frontal cortex caudal to the leucotomy site, and all cortical samples from the non-leucotomized patients, showed minimal p-tau and beta-amyloid pathology. These findings suggest that chronic axonal damage contributes to the unique pathology of CTE over time.

Among veterans served by HCRV, national VA clinical data were used to describe contact with VA health care, and mental health and substance use disorder diagnoses and treatment use. Of veterans seen for an HCRV outreach visit, 56 % had contact with VA health care. Prevalence of mental health disorders was 57 %; of whom 77 % entered mental health treatment within a month of diagnosis. Prevalence of substance use disorders was 49 %; of whom 37 % entered substance use disorder treatment within a month of diagnosis. For veterans exiting prison, increasing access to VA health care, especially for rural veterans, and for substance use disorder treatment, are important quality improvement targets.

Our specific objectives were to determine the safety, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics (PI3K/AKT activity), as well as to capture any potential antitumor activity of the PDE4 inhibitor roflumilast in combination with prednisone in patients with advanced B-cell malignancies. Experimental Design: Single-center, exploratory phase Ib open-label, nonrandomized study. Roflumilast (500 mcg PO) was given daily for 21 days with prednisone on days 8 to 14. Additional 21-day cycles were started if patients tolerated cycle 1 and had at least stable disease. Results: Ten patients, median age 65 years with an average of three prior therapies, were enrolled. The median number of cycles administered was 4 (range, 1-13). Treatment was well tolerated; the most common >= grade 2 treatment-related adverse events were fatigue, anorexia (>= 25%), and transient >= grade 2 neutropenia (30%). Treatment with roflumilast as a single agent significantly suppressed PI3K activity in the 77% of patients evaluated; on average, patients with PI3K/AKT suppression stayed in trial for 156 days (49-315) versus 91 days (28-139 days) for those without this biomarker response. Six of the nine evaluable patients (66%) had partial response or stable disease. The median number of days in trial was 105 days (range, 28-315). Conclusions: Repurposing the PDE4 inhibitor roflumilast for treatment of B-cell malignancies is safe, suppresses the oncogenic PI3K/AKT kinases, and may be clinically active. (C)2016 AACR.

TI Dual PI3K/mTOR Inhibition in Colorectal Cancers with APC and PIK3CA Mutations SO MOLECULAR CANCER RESEARCH LA English DT Article ID ADVANCED SOLID TUMORS; I PI3K INHIBITOR; PHASE-I; COLON TUMORS; MTOR; PATHWAY; RAPAMYCIN; 1ST-IN-HUMAN; TRANSFORMATION; TUMORIGENESIS AB Therapeutic targeting of the PI3K pathway is an active area of research in multiple cancer types, including breast and endometrial cancers. This pathway is commonly altered in cancer and plays an integral role in numerous vital cellular functions. Mutations in the PIK3CA gene, resulting in a constitutively active form of PI3K, often occur in colorectal cancer, though the population of patients who would benefit from targeting this pathway has yet to be identified. In human colorectal cancers, PIK3CA mutations most commonly occur concomitantly with loss of adenomatous polyposis coli (APC). Here, treatment strategies are investigated that target the PI3K pathway in colon cancers with mutations in APC and PIK3CA. Colorectal cancer spheroids with Apc and Pik3ca mutations were generated and characterized confirming that these cultures represent the tumors from which they were derived. Pan and alpha isomer-specific PI3K inhibitors did not induce a significant treatment response, whereas the dual PI3K/mTOR inhibitors BEZ235 and LY3023414 induced a dramatic treatment response through decreased cellular proliferation and increased differentiation. The significant treatment responses were confirmed in mice with Apc and Pik3ca-mutant colon cancers as measured using endoscopy with a reduction in median lumen occlusion of 53% with BEZ235 and a 24% reduction with LY3023414 compared with an increase of 53% in controls (P < 0.001 and P = 0.03, respectively). This response was also confirmed with F-18-FDG microPET/CT imaging. Implications: Spheroid models and transgenic mice suggest that dual PI3K/mTOR inhibition is a potential treatment strategy for APC and PIK3CA-mutant colorectal cancers. Thus, further clinical studies of dual PI3K/mTOR inhibitors are warranted in colorectal cancers with these mutations. (C) 2016 AACR.

Here we review evidence that childhood onsets of bipolar disorder are more common in the US than in Europe, treatment delays are longer, and illness course is more adverse and difficult. Epidemiological data and studies of offspring at high risk also support these findings. In our cohort of outpatients with bipolar disorder, two of the major vulnerability factors for early onset - genetics and environmental adversity in childhood - were also greater in the US than in Europe. An increased familial loading for multiple psychiatric disorders was apparent in 4 generations of the family members of the patients from the US, and that familial burden was linked to early onset bipolar disorder. Since both early onset and treatment delay are risk factors for a poor outcome in adulthood, new clinical, research, and public health initiatives are needed to begin to address and ameliorate this ongoing and potentially devastating clinical situation.

Newly developed questions were administered to 3532 recent SSA applicants for work disability benefits and 2025 US adults. Factor analyses and item response theory (IRT) methods were used to calibrate and link the new items to the existing WD-FAB, and computer-adaptive test simulations were conducted. Factor and IRT analyses supported integration of 44 new items into three existing WD-FAB scales and the addition of a new 11-item scale (Community Mobility). The final physical function domain consisting of: Basic Mobility (56 items), Upper Body Function (34 items), Fine Motor Function (45 items), and Community Mobility (11 items) demonstrated acceptable psychometric properties. The WD-FAB offers an important tool for enhancement of work disability determination. The FAB could provide relevant information about work-related functioning for initial assessment of claimants; identifying denied applicants who may benefit from interventions to improve work and health outcomes; enhancing periodic review of work disability beneficiaries; and assessing outcomes for policies, programs and services targeting people with work disability.

TI Oxidized Low-Density Lipoprotein Immune Complex Priming of the Nlrp3 Inflammasome Involves TLR and Fc gamma R Cooperation and Is Dependent on CARD9 SO JOURNAL OF IMMUNOLOGY LA English DT Article ID SYSTEMIC-LUPUS-ERYTHEMATOSUS; TOLL-LIKE RECEPTOR; RHEUMATOID-ARTHRITIS; CITRULLINATED FIBRINOGEN; DIABETES-MELLITUS; DENDRITIC CELLS; DEFICIENT MICE; HOST-DEFENSE; MODIFIED LDL; ACTIVATION AB Oxidized low-density lipoprotein (oxLDL) is known to activate inflammatory responses in a variety of cells, especially macrophages and dendritic cells. Interestingly, much of the oxLDL in circulation is complexed to Abs, and these resulting immune complexes (ICs) are a prominent feature of chronic inflammatory disease, such as atherosclerosis, type-2 diabetes, systemic lupus erythematosus, and rheumatoid arthritis. Levels of oxLDL ICs often correlate with disease severity, and studies demonstrated that oxLDL ICs elicit potent inflammatory responses in macrophages. In this article, we show that bone marrow-derived dendritic cells (BMDCs) incubated with oxLDL ICs for 24 h secrete significantly more IL-1 beta compared with BMDCs treated with free oxLDL, whereas there was no difference in levels of TNF-alpha or IL-6. Treatment of BMDCs with oxLDL ICs increased expression of inflammasomerelated genes Il1a, Il1b, and Nlrp3, and pretreatment with a caspase 1 inhibitor decreased IL-1b secretion in response to oxLDL ICs. This inflammasome priming was due to oxLDL IC signaling via multiple receptors, because inhibition of CD36, TLR4, and FcgR significantly decreased IL-1 beta secretion in response to oxLDL ICs. Signaling through these receptors converged on the adaptor protein CARD9, a component of the CARD9-Bcl10-MALT1 signalosome complex involved in NF-kappa B translocation. Finally, oxLDL IC-mediated IL-1 beta production resulted in increased Th17 polarization and cytokine secretion. Collectively, these data demonstrate that oxLDL ICs induce inflammasome activation through a separate and more robust mechanism than oxLDL alone and that these ICs may be immunomodulatory in chronic disease and not just biomarkers of severity.

Method: In a 16-week, double-blind, multisite comparison study, 142 participants with bipolar II depression were randomly assigned to receive lithium monotherapy (N=49), sertraline monotherapy (N=45), or combination treatment with lithium and sertraline (N=48). At each visit, mood was assessed using standardized rating scales. Rates of switch were compared, as were rates of treatment response and the presence and severity of treatment-emergent side effects. Results: Twenty participants (14%) experienced a switch during the study period (hypomania, N=17; severe hypomania, N=3). Switch rates did not differ among the three treatment groups, even after accounting for dropout. No patient had a manic switch or was hospitalized for a switch. Most switches occurred within the first 5 weeks of treatment. The treatment response rate for the overall sample was 62.7% (N=89), without significant differences between groups after accounting for dropout. The lithium/sertraline combination group had a significantly higher overall dropout rate than the monotherapy groups but did not have an accelerated time to response. Conclusions: Lithium monotherapy, sertraline monotherapy, and lithium/sertraline combination therapy were associated with similar switch and treatment response rates in participants with bipolar II depression. The dropout rate was higher in the lithium/sertraline combination treatment group, without any treatment acceleration advantage.

TI Innovative Environments In Health Care: Where And How New Approaches To Care Are Succeeding SO HEALTH AFFAIRS LA English DT Article ID CENTERS AB Organizations seeking to create innovative environments in health care need to pay attention to a number of factors. These include making available sufficient resources, notably money and physical space, but also coordination and consultation regarding intellectual property and licensing; enabling access to engineers, software developers, and behavioral scientists; making providers and patients available to innovators; having a sufficiently long-term view; and insulating the innovation group from operational demands. If there is a single essential key to success, it is making innovation a strategic priority. Academic health systems are enormous generators of innovation in the form of generalizable research in biomedical sciences. Typically, much of that innovation is externally supported, and little is directed to improving care processes internally. In industries other than health care, organizations invest their own funds in research and development to promote innovation, and this investment is seen as a metric for a firm's commitment to its future. Increased investment in care-process innovation is long overdue. C1 [Bates, David W.] Brigham & Womens Hosp, Div Gen Internal Med, 75 Francis St, Boston, MA 02115 USA.

In this study, we performed an analysis of the mean amplitude of low-frequency fluctuations (ALFF) to compare resting state spontaneous low-frequency fluctuations in patients with Sz who report experiencing hallucinations impacting different sensory modalities. By exploring dynamics across 2 low-frequency passbands (slow-4 and slow-5), we assessed the impact of hallucination modality and frequency range on spatial ALFF variation. Drawing from a sample of Sz and healthy controls studied as part of the Functional Imaging Biomedical Informatics Research Network (FBIRN), we replicated prior findings showing that patients with Sz have decreased ALFF in the posterior brain in comparison to controls. Remarkably, we found that patients that endorsed visual hallucinations did not show this pattern of reduced ALFF in the back of the brain. These patients also had elevated ALFF in the left hippocampus in comparison to patients that endorsed auditory (but not visual) hallucinations. Moreover, left hippocampal ALFF across all the cases was related to reported hallucination severity in both the auditory and visual domains, and not overall positive symptoms. This supports the hypothesis that dynamic changes in the ALFF in the hippocampus underlie severity of hallucinations that impact different sensory modalities.

This paper provides a systematic review with a particular focus upon psychological states that disproportionately motivate smoking in depression, and frame an incentive learning theory account of smoking-depression co-occurrence. Methods We searched PubMed, Scopus, PsychINFO and CINAHL to December 2014, which yielded 852 papers. Using pre-established eligibility criteria, we identified papers focused on clinical issues and motivational mechanisms underlying smoking in established, adult smokers (i.e. maintenance, quit attempts and cessation/relapse) with elevated symptoms of depression. Two reviewers determined independently whether papers met review criteria. We included 297 papers in qualitative synthesis. Results Our review identified three primary mechanisms that underlie persistent smoking among depressed smokers: low positive affect, high negative affect and cognitive impairment. We propose a novel application of incentive learning theory which posits that depressed smokers experience greater increases in the expected value of smoking in the face of these three motivational states, which promotes goal-directed choice of smoking behavior over alternative actions. Conclusions The incentive learning theory accounts for current evidence on how depression primes smoking behavior and provides a unique framework for conceptualizing psychological mechanisms of smoking maintenance among depressed smokers. Treatment should focus upon correcting adverse internal states and beliefs about the high value of smoking in those states to improve cessation outcomes for depressed smokers.

The most significant changes include: (1) the assessment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease has been refined to separate the spirometric assessment from symptom evaluation. ABCD groups are now proposed to be derived exclusively from patient symptoms and their history of exacerbations; (2) for each of the groups A to D, escalation strategies for pharmacologic treatments are proposed; (3) the concept of deescalation of therapy is introduced in the treatment assessment scheme; (4) nonpharmacologic therapies are comprehensively presented; and (5) the importance of comorbid conditions in managing chronic obstructive pulmonary disease is reviewed.

The Congestive Heart Failure Cardiopoietic Regenerative Therapy (CHART-1) trial aimed to validate cardiopoiesis-based biotherapy in a larger heart failure cohort. Methods and results This multinational, randomized, double-blind, sham-controlled study was conducted in 39 hospitals. Patients with symptomatic ischaemic heart failure on guideline-directed therapy (n= 484) were screened; n = 348 underwent bone marrow harvest and mesenchymal stem cell expansion. Those achieving> 24 million mesenchymal stem cells (n= 315) were randomized to cardiopoietic cells delivered endomyocardially with a retention-enhanced catheter (n= 157) or sham procedure (n= 158). Procedures were performed as randomized in 271 patients (n = 120 cardiopoietic cells, n= 151 sham). The primary efficacy endpoint was a Finkelstein-Schoenfeld hierarchical composite (all-cause mortality, worsening heart failure, Minnesota Living with Heart Failure Questionnaire score, 6-min walk distance, left ventricular end-systolic volume, and ejection fraction) at 39 weeks. The primary outcome was neutral (Mann-Whitney estimator 0.54, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.47-0.61 [value> 0.5 favours cell treatment], P = 0.27). Exploratory analyses suggested a benefit of cell treatment on the primary composite in patients with baseline left ventricular end-diastolic volume 200-370mL (60% of patients) (Mann-Whitney estimator 0.61, 95% CI 0.52-0.70, P = 0.015). No difference was observed in serious adverse events. One (0.9%) cardiopoietic cell patient and 9 (5.4%) sham patients experienced aborted or sudden cardiac death. Conclusion The primary endpoint was neutral, with safety demonstrated across the cohort. Further evaluation of cardiopoietic cell therapy in patients with elevated end-diastolic volume is warranted.

The aim of the present decision analysis was to study the impact of inflationary indication on the expected benefits to gastroenterologists and referring physicians. Methods The study aims were pursued in terms of game theory and medical decision analysis using decision trees. Different outcomes associated with true versus false urgent indication in immediate versus delayed endoscopy were ranked according to different preference schemes of gastroenterologists versus referring physicians. Results The decision analysis shows that inflating the urgency of indication for endoscopy reduces the benefit from the perspective of gastroenterologists and referring physicians alike. Raising the level of false urgent indications results in a lost opportunity for immediate endoscopy among patients with true urgent indications and, thus, diminishes the overall benefit of endoscopy. By comparison, all other influences play only a marginal role. For referring physicians, the small benefit of expediting nonurgent endoscopies by exaggerated claims does not compensate for the concomitant loss of truly needed endoscopy slots. For gastroenterologists, a small benefit derived from delaying endoscopies in patients with false urgent endoscopies rapidly wears off as inflationary indications become common practice. Conclusion An underlying communication problem between referring physicians and gastroenterologists needs to be resolved by educating referring physicians about the operative exigencies of endoscopy units and about the true appearance of alarm symptoms in common digestive diseases.

TI Implementation of Lung Cancer Screening in the Veterans Health Administration SO JAMA INTERNAL MEDICINE LA English DT Article ID DOSE COMPUTED-TOMOGRAPHY; FLEISCHNER-SOCIETY; CHEST PHYSICIANS; POLICY STATEMENT; CARE-SYSTEM; TRIAL; CT; MANAGEMENT; PROGRAMS; COLLEGE AB IMPORTANCE The US Preventive Services Task Force recommends annual lung cancer screening (LCS) with low-dose computed tomography for current and former heavy smokers aged 55 to 80 years. There is little published experience regarding implementing this recommendation in clinical practice. OBJECTIVES To describe organizational-and patient-level experiences with implementing an LCS program in selected Veterans Health Administration (VHA) hospitals and to estimate the number of VHA patients who may be candidates for LCS. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS This clinical demonstration projectwas conducted at 8 academic VHA hospitals among 93 033 primary care patients who were assessed on screening criteria; 2106 patients underwent LCS between July 1, 2013, and June 30, 2015. INTERVENTIONS Implementation Guide and support, full-time LCS coordinators, electronic tools, tracking database, patient education materials, and radiologic and nodule follow-up guidelines. MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURES Description of implementation processes; percentages of patients who agreed to undergo LCS, had positive findings on results of low-dose computed tomographic scans (nodules to be tracked or suspicious findings), were found to have lung cancer, or had incidental findings; and estimated number of VHA patients who met the criteria for LCS. RESULTS Of the 4246 patients who met the criteria for LCS, 2452 (57.7%) agreed to undergo screening and 2106 (2028 men and 78 women; mean [SD] age, 64.9 [5.1] years) underwent LCS. Wide variation in processes and patient experiences occurred among the 8 sites. Of the 2106 patients screened, 1257 (59.7%) had nodules; 1184 of these patients (56.2%) required tracking, 42 (2.0%) required further evaluation but the findings were not cancer, and 31 (1.5%) had lung cancer. A variety of incidental findings, such as emphysema, other pulmonary abnormalities, and coronary artery calcification, were noted on the scans of 857 patients (40.7%). CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE It is estimated that nearly 900 000 of a population of 6.7 million VHA patients met the criteria for LCS. Implementation of LCS in the VHA will likely lead to large numbers of patients eligible for LCS and will require substantial clinical effort for both patients and staff.

TI Effect of a Brief Memory Updating Intervention on Smoking Behavior A Randomized Clinical Trial SO JAMA PSYCHIATRY LA English DT Article ID CONDITIONED PLACE PREFERENCE; POST-RETRIEVAL EXTINCTION; CUE REACTIVITY; FEAR MEMORIES; DRUG-ADDICTION; ERASING FEAR; RECONSOLIDATION; RELAPSE; PROPRANOLOL; CESSATION AB IMPORTANCE Recent research on addiction-related memory processes suggests that protracted extinction training following brief cue-elicited memory retrieval (ie, retrieval-extinction [R-E] training) can attenuate/ eradicate the ability of cues to elicit learned behaviors. One study reported that cue-elicited craving among detoxified heroin addicts was substantially attenuated following R-E training and through 6-month follow-up. OBJECTIVE To build on these impressive findings by examining whether R-E training could attenuate smoking-related craving and behavior. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS This prospective, mixed-design, human laboratory randomized clinical trial took place between December 2013 and September 2015. Participants were recruited in Charleston, South Carolina. Study sessions took place at the Medical University of South Carolina. The participants were 168 screened volunteer smokers, of whom 88 were randomized; 72 of these 88 participants (81.8%) attended all the follow-up sessions through 1 month. The primary eligibility criteria were current nicotine dependence (DSM criteria), smoking 10 or more cigarettes per day, and a willingness to attempt smoking cessation. INTERVENTIONS Participants were randomly assigned to receive either smoking-related memory retrieval followed by extinction training (the R-E group) or nonsmoking-related retrieval followed by extinction training (the NR-E group). MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURES Primary outcomes were cue-elicited craving and physiological responding to familiar and novel cues in the R-E group vs the NR-E group over a 1-month follow-up period. Secondary outcomes were smoking-related behaviors. RESULTS A total of 44 participants were randomly assigned to the R-E group (mean age, 48.3 years; 72.7% male); a total of 44 participants were randomly assigned to the NR-E group, with 43 attending at least 1 training session (mean age, 46.7 years; 55.8% male). The mean craving response to both familiar and novel smoking cues was significantly lower for participants in the R-E group than for participants in the NR-E group at 1-month follow-up (for both cue types: t(1225) = 2.1, P =.04, d = 0.44, and Delta = 0.47 [95% CI, 0.04-0.90]). The mean numbers of cigarettes smoked per day at 2 weeks and 1-month were significantly lower for the R-E group than for the NR-E group (treatment main effect: F-1.68 = 5.4, P =.02, d = 0.50, and Delta = 2.4 [95% CI, 0.4-4.5]). Significant differences in physiological responses, urine cotinine level, number of days abstinent, lapse, and relapse were not observed between groups (all between P =.06 and .75). CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE Retrieval-extinction training substantially attenuated craving to both familiar and novel smoking cues and reduced the number of cigarettes smoked per day by participants 1 month after treatment relative to extinction training alone. Between-group differences were not observed for physiological responses, cotinine level, number of days abstinent, relapse, or lapse. In summary, R-E training is a brief behavioral treatment that targets smoking-related memories and has the potential to enhance relapse prevention. Copyright 2017 American Medical Association.

TI GWAS meta-analysis reveals novel loci and genetic correlates for general cognitive function: a report from the COGENT consortium SO MOLECULAR PSYCHIATRY LA English DT Article ID GENOME-WIDE ASSOCIATION; SCOTTISH MENTAL SURVEY; UK BIOBANK N=112151; EDUCATIONAL-ATTAINMENT; INTELLECTUAL DISABILITY; DEVELOPMENTAL DELAY; EXECUTIVE FUNCTION; HUMAN INTELLIGENCE; PROVIDES INSIGHTS; ABILITY AB The complex nature of human cognition has resulted in cognitive genomics lagging behind many other fields in terms of gene discovery using genome-wide association study (GWAS) methods. In an attempt to overcome these barriers, the current study utilized GWAS meta-analysis to examine the association of common genetic variation (similar to 8M single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) with minor allele frequency >= 1%) to general cognitive function in a sample of 35 298 healthy individuals of European ancestry across 24 cohorts in the Cognitive Genomics Consortium (COGENT). In addition, we utilized individual SNP lookups and polygenic score analyses to identify genetic overlap with other relevant neurobehavioral phenotypes. Our primary GWAS meta-analysis identified two novel SNP loci (top SNPs: rs76114856 in the CENPO gene on chromosome 2 and rs6669072 near LOC105378853 on chromosome 1) associated with cognitive performance at the genome-wide significance level (P<5x10(-8)). Gene-based analysis identified an additional three Bonferroni-corrected significant loci at chromosomes 17q21.31, 17p13.1 and 1p13.3. Altogether, common variation across the genome resulted in a conservatively estimated SNP heritability of 21.5% (s.e. = 0.01%) for general cognitive function. Integration with prior GWAS of cognitive performance and educational attainment yielded several additional significant loci. Finally, we found robust polygenic correlations between cognitive performance and educational attainment, several psychiatric disorders, birth length/weight and smoking behavior, as well as a novel genetic association to the personality trait of openness. These data provide new insight into the genetics of neurocognitive function with relevance to understanding the pathophysiology of neuropsychiatric illness. C1 [Trampush, J.

The pattern of bone loss in individuals with SCI differs from other forms of secondary osteoporosis because the skeleton above the level of lesion remains unaffected, while marked bone loss occurs in the regions of neurological impairment. Striking demineralization of the trabecular epiphyses of the distal femur (supracondylar) and proximal tibia occurs, with the knee region being highly vulnerable to fracture because many accidents occur while sitting in a wheelchair, making the knee region the first point of contact to any applied force. To quantify bone mineral density (BMD) at the knee, dual energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) and/or computed tomography (CT) bone densitometry are routinely employed in the clinical and research settings. A detailed review of imaging methods to acquire and quantify BMD at the distal femur and proximal tibia has not been performed to date but, if available, would serve as a reference for clinicians and researchers. This article will discuss the risk of fracture at the knee in persons with SCI, imaging methods to acquire and quantify BMD at the distal femur and proximal tibia, and treatment options available for prophylaxis against or reversal of osteoporosis in individuals with SCI.

Introduction Persons with a spinal cord injury (SCI) have substantial morbidity and mortality following osteoporotic fractures. The objective of this study was to determine whether dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) measurements predict osteoporotic fractures in this population. Methods A retrospective historical analysis that includes patients (n = 552) with a SCI of at least 2 years duration who had a DXA performed and were in the VA Spinal Cord Disorders Registry from fiscal year (FY) 2002-2012 was performed. Results The majority of persons (n = 455, 82%) had a diagnosis of osteoporosis or osteopenia, with almost half having osteoporosis. BMD and T-scores at the lumbar spine were not significantly associated with osteoporotic fractures (p > 0.48) for both. In multivariable analyses, osteopenia (OR = 4.75 95% CI 1.2317.64) or osteoporosis (OR = 4.31, 95% CI 1.15-16.23) compared with normal BMD was significantly associated with fractures and higher T-scores at the hip were inversely associated with fractures (OR 0.73 (95% CI 0.57-0.92)). There was no significant association of T-scores or World Health Organization (WHO) classification with incident fractures in those with complete SCI (p > 0.15 for both). Conclusion The majority (over 80%) of individuals with a SCI have osteopenia or osteoporosis. DXA-derived measurements at the hip, but not the lumbar spine, predict fracture risk in persons with a SCI. WHO-derived bone density categoriesmay be useful in classifying fracture risk in persons with a SCI. C1 [Abderhalden, L.; Weaver, F.

Edward TI Lithium increases hippocampal SNARE protein abundance after traumatic brain injury SO EXPERIMENTAL NEUROLOGY LA English DT Article DE Traumatic brain injury; Synapse; SNARE; Hippocampus; Cognition; Vesicle ID CONTROLLED CORTICAL IMPACT; SYNAPTIC VESICLE DOCKING; CYSTEINE STRING PROTEIN; REDUCED EVOKED RELEASE; IN-VITRO; RAT-BRAIN; NEUROTROPHIC FACTOR; MESSENGER-RNA; KNOCKOUT MICE; CSP-ALPHA AB Rodent models of traumatic brain injury (TBI) reproduce secondary injury sequela and cognitive impairments observed in patients afflicted by a TBI. Impaired neurotransmission has been reported in the weeks following experimental TBI, and may be a contributor to behavioral dysfunction. The soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor attachment protein receptor (SNARE) complex, the machinery facilitating vesicular docking and fusion, is a highly-conserved mechanism important for neurotransmission. Following TBI, there is a reduction in both the formation of the SNARE complex and the abundance of multiple SNARE proteins, including the chaperone protein cysteine string protein alpha (CSP alpha). Treatment with lithium in na ve rats reportedly increases the expression of CSPa. In the context of TBI, brain-injured rats treated with lithium exhibit improved outcome in published reports, but the mechanisms underlying the improvement are poorly understood. The current study evaluated the effect of lithium administration on the abundance of SNARE proteins and SNARE complex formation, hemispheric tissue loss, and neurobehavioral performance following controlled cortical impact (CCI). Sprague Dawley rats were subjected to CCI or sham injury, and treated daily with lithium chloride or vehicle for up to 14 days. Administration of lithium after TBI modestly improved spatial memory at 14 days post-injury. Semi-quantitative immunoblot analysis of hippocampal lysates revealed that treatment with lithium attenuated reductions in key SNARE proteins and SNARE complex formation at multiple time points post-injury. These findings highlight that treatment with lithium increased the abundance of synaptic proteins that facilitate neurotransmission and may contribute to improved cognitive function after TBI.

It is required for restoring cellular homeostasis in cell survival under multiple stresses. Autophagy is known to be a double-edged sword because too much activation or inhibition of autophagy can disrupt homeostatic degradation of protein and organelles within the brain and play a role in neuronal cell death. Many factors affect autophagy flux function in the brain, including endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, oxidative stress, and aging. Newly emerged research indicates that altered autophagy flux functionality is involved in neurodegeneration of the aged brain, chronic neurological diseases, and after traumatic and ischemic brain injuries. In search to identify neuroprotective agents that may reduce oxidative stress and stimulate autophagy, one particular neuroprotective agent docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) presents unique functions in reducing ER and oxidative stress and modulating autophagy. This review will summarize the recent findings on changes of autophagy in aging, neurodegenerative diseases, and brain injury after trauma or ischemic strokes. Discussion of DHA functions is focused on modulating ER stress and autophagy in regard to its neuroprotection and anti-tumor functions. (C) 2016 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

UPP dysfunction occurs with normal aging and is associated with abnormal accumulation of protein aggregates within neurons in neurodegenerative diseases. Ischemia disrupts UPP function and thus may contribute to UPP dysfunction seen in the aging brain and in neurodegenerative diseases. Ubiquitin carboxy-terminal hydrolase L1 (UCHL1), an important component of the UPP in the neuron, is covalently modified and its activity inhibited by reactive lipids produced after ischemia. As a result, degradation of toxic proteins is impaired which may exacerbate neuronal function and cell death in stroke and neurodegenerative diseases. Preserving or restoring UCHL1 activity may be an effective therapeutic strategy in stroke and neurodegenerative diseases. Published by Elsevier B.V.

These diseases share similar neuropathological changes, such as the formation of misfolded proteins, oxidative stress, loss of neurons and synapses, dysfunction of the neurovascular unit (NVU), reduction of self-repair capacity, and motor and/or cognitive deficiencies. In addition to gray matter dysfunction, the plasticity and repair capacity of white matter also decrease with aging and contribute to neurodegenerative diseases. Aging not only renders patients more susceptible to these disorders, but also attenuates their self-repair capabilities. In addition, low drug responsiveness and intolerable side effects are major challenges in the prevention and treatment of senile diseases. Thus, stem cell therapies characterized by cellular plasticity and the ability to self-renew may be a promising strategy for aging-related brain disorders. Here, we review the common pathophysiological changes, treatments, and the promises and limitations of stem cell therapies in age-related neurodegenerative diseases and stroke.

These conditions are also related pathologically through multiple interacting mechanisms. The hallmark pathology of AD consists of pathological aggregates of amyloid-beta (A beta) peptides and tau proteins. These molecules are also involved in neuropathology of several other chronic neurodegenerative diseases, and are under intense investigation in the aftermath of TBI as potential contributors to the risk for developing AD and chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE). The pathology of TBI is complex and dependent on injury severity, age-at-injury, and length of time between injury and neuropathological evaluation. In addition, the mechanisms influencing pathology and recovery after TBI likely involve genetic/epigenetic factors as well as additional disorders or comorbid states related to age and central and peripheral vascular health. In this regard, dysfunction of the aging neurovascular system could be an important link between TBI and chronic neurodegenerative diseases, either as a precipitating event or related to accumulation of AD-like pathology which is amplified in the context of aging. Thus with advanced age and vascular dysfunction, TBI can trigger self-propagating cycles of neuronal injury, pathological protein aggregation, and synaptic loss resulting in chronic neurodegenerative disease. In this review we discuss evidence supporting TBI and aging as dual, interacting risk factors for AD, and the role of A beta and cerebral vascular dysfunction in this relationship. Evidence is discussed that A beta is involved in cyto- and synapto-toxicity after severe TBI, and that its chronic effects are potentiated by aging and impaired cerebral vascular function. From a therapeutic perspective, we emphasize that in the fields of TBI- and aging-related neurodegeneration protective strategies should include preservation of neurovascular function.

The myelinated axons within WM are the structural foundation for efficient neurotransmission between cortical and subcortical areas. Similar to neuron enriched gray matter areas, WM undergoes a series of changes during the process of aging. WM malfunction can induce serious neurobehavioral and cognitive impairments. Thus, age-related changes in WM may contribute to the functional decline observed in the elderly. In addition, aged WM becomes more susceptible to neurological disorders, such as stroke, traumatic brain injury (TBI), and neurodegeneration. In this review, we summarize the structural and functional alterations of WM in natural aging and speculate on the underlying mechanisms. We also discuss how age-related WM changes influence the progression of various brain disorders, including ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke, TBI, Alzheimer's disease, and Parkinson's disease. Although the physiology of WM is still poorly understood relative to gray matter, WM is a rational therapeutic target for a number of neurological and psychiatric conditions. (C) 2016 Elsevier B.V.

Aging is an important factor that influences the integrity of the NVU. The age-related physiological or pathological changes in the cellular components of the NVU have been shown to increase the vulnerability of the NVU to ischemia/reperfusion injury or neurodegeneration, and to result in deteriorated brain damage. This review describes the impacts of aging on each NVU component and discusses the mechanisms by which aging increases NVU sensitivity to stroke and neurodegenerative diseases. Prophylactic or therapeutic perspectives that may delay or diminish aging and thus prevent the incidence of these neurological disorders will also be reviewed. (C) 2016 Elsevier B.V.

TI Using Health Information Technology to Foster Engagement: Patients' Experiences with an Active Patient Health Record SO HEALTH COMMUNICATION LA English DT Article ID DIABETES SELF-MANAGEMENT; IMPROVING PRIMARY-CARE; CHRONIC ILLNESS CARE; PERSONAL HEALTH; COLLABORATIVE MANAGEMENT; ACTIVATION MEASURE; DECISION-MAKING; CHRONIC DISEASE; HEART-FAILURE; E-MAIL AB Personal health records (PHRs) typically employ "passive" communication strategies, such as non-personalized medical text, rather than direct patient engagement in care. Currently there is a call for more active PHRs that directly engage patients in an effort to improve their health by offering elements such as personalized medical information, health coaches, and secure messaging with primary care providers. As part of a randomized clinical trial comparing "passive" with "active" PHRs, we explore patients' experiences with using an "active" PHR known as HealthTrak. The "passive" elements of this PHR included problem lists, medication lists, information about patient allergies and immunizations, medical and surgical histories, lab test results, health reminders, and secure messaging. The active arm included all of these elements and added personalized alerts delivered through the secure messaging platform to patients for services coming due based on various demographic features (including age and sex) and chronic medical conditions. Our participants were part of the larger clinical trial and were eligible if they had been randomized to the active PHR arm, one that included regular personalized alerts. We conducted focus group discussions on the benefits of this active PHR for patients who are at risk for cardiovascular disease. Forty-one patients agreed to participate and were organized into five separate focus group sessions. Three main themes emerged from the qualitatively analyzed focus groups: participants reported that the active PHR promoted better communication with providers; enabled them to more effectively partner with their providers; and helped them become more proactive about tracking their health information. In conclusion, patients reported improved communication, partnership with their providers, and a sense of self-management, thus adding insights for PHR designers hoping to address low adoption rates and other patient barriers to the development and use of the technology.

Kim, Hyejin Sowicz, Timothy Joseph Kelly, Terri-Ann Kagan, Sarah TI Co-creation of a pedagogical space to support qualitative inquiry: An advanced qualitative collective SO NURSE EDUCATION TODAY LA English DT Article AB Background: Situated in a research-intensive School of Nursing, the Advanced Qualitative Collective (AQC) provides an innovative educational forum for the study of qualitative research by doctoral and postdoctoral scholars. This long-standing collective is guided by a faculty facilitator using a collaborative co-learning approach to address individual and group needs, from the conception of research projects through dissemination of completed qualitative research. This article describes the dynamics of the AQC and the ways a co-created pedagogical entity supports professional development among its diverse members. The informal, participatory style, and dynamic content used by the AQC resists a course structure typical of doctoral education in health sciences, and promotes engagement and self-direction. The AQC provides opportunities for members to examine theoretical frameworks and methodologies rarely addressed within a positivism-dominant learning environment while simultaneously serving as an alternative exemplar for the pedagogy of research.

TI The impact of sleep and psychiatric symptoms on alcohol consequences among young adults SO ADDICTIVE BEHAVIORS LA English DT Article DE Binge drinking; Heavy episodic drinking; Mental health; College students ID COLLEGE-STUDENTS; USE DISORDERS; SUBSTANCE USE; BINGE DRINKING; QUALITY INDEX; MENTAL-HEALTH; POOR SLEEP; DEPRESSION; ANXIETY; QUESTIONNAIRE AB Objective: Independent lines of research have documented links between psychiatric symptoms and poor sleep quality, psychiatric symptoms and alcohol use, and alcohol use and poor sleep quality. The current study examined the synergistic effect of poor sleep quality and psychiatric symptoms on alcohol-related consequences in heavy-drinking young adults. Method: Matriculating college students reporting at least one heavy drinking episode over the first nine weeks of the semester (N= 385, 52% female) were categorized as experiencing 'good' (n = 280) versus 'poor' sleep quality (n = 105) and screening 'positive' (n = 203) or 'negative' (n = 182) for a psychiatric disorder. Sleep quality was assessed using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index; psychiatric diagnosis was assessed using the Psychiatric Diagnostic Screening Questionnaire; and alcohol-related consequences were assessed" using the Brief Young Adult Alcohol Consequences Questionnaire. General linear models were used to examine the main effects and interaction between sleep quality and psychiatric symptoms on alcohol-related consequences. Results: Sleep quality moderated the association between psychiatric screen and alcohol-related consequences among heavy-drinking college students, such that psychiatric symptoms were associated with more alcohol-related consequences in the context of poor sleep quality. Conclusions: The combination of poor sleep quality and psychiatric symptoms is associated with increased alcohol -related consequences among heavy-drinking college students. Given the significant interaction between these symptoms, healthcare providers are encouraged to screen for the presence of sleep and psychiatric disorders among heavy-drinking young adults and to provide empirically-supported treatments as appropriate.

Although activity limitations associated with these disorders impose a substantial economic burden, this relationship has not been explored in a large U.S. cohort. Methods: In this study, we used the Medical Expenditures Panel Survey to investigate whether functional limitations explain the difference in medical expenditures between patients with arthritis and joint pain and those without. We used sequential explanatory linear models to investigate this relationship and accounted for various covariates. Results: Unadjusted mean expenditures were $10,587 for those with joint pain or arthritis, compared with $3813 for those without. In a fully adjusted model accounting also for functional limitations, those with joint pain or arthritis paid $1638 more than those without, a statistically significant difference. Conclusions: The growing economic and public health burden of arthritis and joint pain, as well as the corresponding complications of functional, activity, and sensory limitations, calls for an interdisciplinary approach and heightened awareness among providers to identify strategies that meet the needs of high-risk patients in order to prevent and delay disease progression.

However, little is known about the presence and extent of aHPC abnormalities in posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). In this study, we used a multimodal approach, along with graph-based measures of global brain connectivity (GBC) termed functional GBC with global signal regression (f-GBCr) and diffusion GBC (d-GBC), in combat-exposed US Veterans with and without PTSD. Seed-based aHPC anatomical connectivity analyses were also performed. A whole-brain voxel-wise data-driven investigation revealed a significant association between elevated PTSD symptoms and reduced medial temporal f-GBCr, particularly in the aHPC. Similarly, aHPC d-GBC negatively correlated with PTSD severity. Both functional and anatomical aHPC dysconnectivity measures remained significant after controlling for hippocampal volume, age, gender, intelligence, education, combat severity, depression, anxiety, medication status, traumatic brain injury and alcohol/substance comorbidities. Depression-like PTSD dimensions were associated with reduced connectivity in the ventromedial and dorsolateral prefrontal cortex. In contrast, hyperarousal symptoms were positively correlated with ventromedial and dorsolateral prefrontal connectivity. We believe the findings provide first evidence of functional and anatomical dysconnectivity in the aHPC of veterans with high PTSD symptomatology. The data support the putative utility of aHPC connectivity as a measure of overall PTSD severity. Moreover, prefrontal global connectivity may be of clinical value as a brain biomarker to potentially distinguish between PTSD subgroups. C1 [Abdallah, C. G.; Wrocklage, K. M.; Averill, C.

It is curable but one-third of cases are refractory to therapy or relapse after initial response highlighting the urgent need for developing novel therapeutic approaches. Targeting sirtuins, particularly SIRT1 by genetic approaches or using pharmaceutical inhibitor tenovin-6, has shown promising therapeutic potential in various hematopoietic malignancies. However, it remains unknown whether these approaches are effective for DLBCL. In this study, we have found that tenovin-6 potently inhibits the proliferation and survival of DLBCL cells. Surprisingly, specific knockdown of SIRT1/2/3 has no effect on DLBCL. Mechanistically, tenovin-6 increases the level of microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3B (LC3B)-II in a SIRT1/2/3- and p53-independent manner in DLBCL cell lines. Tenovin-6-mediated increase of LC3B-II is through inhibition of classical autophagy pathway. Furthermore, inhibition of the autophagy pathway by using other inhibitors or by knocking down key genes in the pathway impairs cell proliferation and survival of DLBCL cells. These results indicate that targeting the autophagic pathway could be a novel therapeutic strategy for DLBCL and that precaution should be taken to interpret data where tenovin-6 was used as an inhibitor of sirtuins.

Secreted protein acidic and rich in cysteine (SPARC) is a collagen-binding matricellular protein known to influence collagen fiber assembly in the PDL. In contrast, functional properties of the N-propeptide of collagen I, encoded in exon 2 of the COL1A1 gene, are poorly understood. In this study, the PDL of collagen I exon 2-deleted (wt/ko), SPARC-null (ko/wt), and double transgenic (ko/ko) mice were evaluated in terms of cellularity, collagen area, fiber morphology, and extraction force and compared to WT (wt/wt) mice. Picro sirius red staining indicated a decrease in total PDL collagen content in each of the transgenic mice compared to WT at 1 and 3 month age points. At 12 months, only SPARCn-ull (ko/wt) and double-null PDL demonstrated less total collagen versus WT. Likewise, an increase in thin PDL collagen fibers was observed at 1 and 3 months in each transgenic, with increases only in SPARC-null and double-null mice at 12 months. The force required for tooth extraction was significantly reduced in SPARC-null versus exon 2-deleted and WT mice, whereas double-null mice demonstrated further decreases in force required for tooth extraction. The number of proliferating fibroblasts and number and size of epithelial rests of Malassez were increased in each transgenic versus WT with double-null PDL exhibiting highest levels of proliferation and rests of Malassez at 1 month of age. Consistent with increases in PDL collagen in exon-2 deleted mice, with age, numbers of rests decreased at 12 months in this genotype. These results demonstrate for the first time a functional role of the N-propeptide in regulating collagen fiber assembly and cell behavior and suggest that SPARC and the N-propeptide of collagen I have distinct activities in regulating collagen fiber assembly and fibroblast function.

Although rare, several cases have been reported and multiple pathophysiologic mechanisms have been independently proposed. We present a patient case and a literature review of the clinical presentation and mechanisms of CML-associated hypercalcemia. Case Report: A 58-year-old male with a past medical history of CML diagnosed six years earlier, presented to the emergency department with one week of acute confusion, disorientation, polyuria, and polydipsia. On physical examination, we observed tachycardia, altered mental status, and dehydration. Blood analysis revealed leukocytosis, thrombocytosis, and marked hypercalcemia (18.6 mg/dL). His chest CT scan showed diffuse lytic lesions and bone destruction concerning for diffuse bone marrow involvement. The patient was diagnosed with hypercalcemia in the context of a CML blast phase. Treatment with hydration, calcitonin, and zoledronic acid lead to control of his symptoms and normalization of his serum calcium levels. After discharged, the patient was maintained on palliative treatment and zoledronic acid management without new episodes of hypercalcemia. However, eight months later, the patient died. Conclusions: Evidence from the literature demonstrates a highly variable clinical presentation of CML-associated hypercalcemia, commonly occurring during an accelerated or a blast phase, and associated with poor survival. Multiple mechanisms could be involved and are not exclusive of each other. Better understanding of the pathophysiologic mechanisms involved in CML-associated hypercalcemia could lead to improvement in clinical and laboratory evaluation of these patients and be the foundation for the development of better management strategies and possibly target-directed therapy to positively improve prognosis.

BACKGROUND Patients with coronary artery disease and prior percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) frequently undergo noncardiac surgery. These patients may have had PCI either on all obstructive lesions (i.e., complete revascularization) or only on some (i.e., incomplete revascularization). METHODS Patients were identified using the Veterans Affairs Clinical Assessment, Reporting, and Tracking program. Veterans Affairs and non-Veterans Affairs surgical records were used to link patients who underwent noncardiac surgery within 2 years after stent placement. Incomplete revascularization was defined as a residual stenosis of >= 50% in the left main coronary artery or >= 70% in another major epicardial coronary artery on the basis of operator visual estimate. RESULTS In total, 4,332 patients (34.7%) had incomplete revascularization. A total of 567 MACE occurred within 1 month post-operatively. Patients with incomplete revascularization had an unadjusted 19% increased odds of postoperative MACE, compared with those with complete revascularization (odds ratio: 1.19; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.00 to 1.41). Among the MACE components, post-operative MI appears to contribute the most, with a 37% increased risk for post-operative MI among patients with incomplete revascularization (odds ratio: 1.37; 95% CI: 1.10 to 1.70). After adjustment, there was a significant interaction between time from PCI and outcomes after noncardiac surgery; incomplete revascularization was associated with significantly increased risk for post-operative MI primarily if surgery was performed within 6 weeks after PCI (adjusted odds ratio: 1.84; 95% CI: 1.04 to 2.38). The number of vessels with incomplete revascularization was also associated with an increased risk for post-operative MI: for each additional vessel with incomplete revascularization, there was a 17% increased odds of post-operative MI. CONCLUSIONS Incomplete revascularization among patients with coronary artery disease is associated with an increased risk for MI after noncardiac surgery.

TI Emergence of Coordinated Neural Dynamics Underlies Neuroprosthetic Learning and Skillful Control SO NEURON LA English DT Article ID BRAIN-MACHINE INTERFACES; MOTOR CORTEX; CORTICOSTRIATAL PLASTICITY; NETWORK REORGANIZATION; VARIABILITY; ADAPTATION; TASK; NEURONS; DESIGN; MODULATION AB During motor learning, movements and underlying neural activity initially exhibit large trial-to-trial variability that decreases over learning. However, it is unclear how task-relevant neural populations coordinate to explore and consolidate activity patterns. Exploration and consolidation could happen for each neuron independently, across the population jointly, or both. We disambiguated among these possibilities by investigating how subjects learned de novo to control a brain-machine interface using neurons from motor cortex. We decomposed population activity into the sum of private and shared signals, which produce uncorrelated and correlated neural variance, respectively, and examined how these signals' evolution causally shapes behavior. We found that initially large trial-to-trial movement and private neural variability reduce over learning. Concomitantly, task-relevant shared variance increases, consolidating a manifold containing consistent neural trajectories that generate refined control. These results suggest that motor cortex acquires skillful control by leveraging both independent and coordinated variance to explore and consolidate neural patterns.

TI POLYUNSATURATED FATTY ACID BIOSTATUS, PHOSPHOLIPASE A(2) ACTIVITY AND BRAIN WHITE MATTER MICROSTRUCTURE ACROSS ADOLESCENCE SO NEUROSCIENCE LA English DT Article DE white matter; myelin; polyunsaturated fatty acids; phospholipase; adolescence; development ID ARACHIDONIC-ACID; NERVOUS-SYSTEM; SCHIZOPHRENIA; DIFFUSION; ADULTHOOD; RECEPTOR; CELLS; AGE; METABOLISM; CHILDHOOD AB Adolescence is a period of major brain white matter (WM) changes, and membrane lipid metabolism likely plays a critical role in brain WM myelination. Long -chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LC-PUFAs) are essential components of cell membranes including oligodendrocytes, and LC-PUFA release and turnover in membranes is regulated by phospholipase A(2) enzymes. To investigate the role of membrane lipid metabolism in healthy WM myelination across adolescence, the present study examined the relationship between membrane LC-PUFA biostatus, phospholipase A(2) activity, and brain WM microstructure in healthy subjects aged 9-20 years (n = 30). Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) was performed to measure average fractional anisotropy (FA) and diffusivity (indices sensitive to WM myelination) of nine major cerebral WM tracts. Blood samples were collected to measure erythrocyte membrane fatty acid concentrations and plasma intracellular phospholipase A(2) activity (inPLA(2)). Plasma inPLA(2) activity showed a significant U-curved association with WM radial diffusivity, and an inverted U-curved association with WM FA, independent of age. A significant positive linear correlation was observed between docosahexaenoic acid concentration and axial diffusivity in the corpus callosum. These findings suggest that there may be optimal physiological inPLA(2) activity levels associated with healthy WM myelination in late childhood and adolescence. Myelination may be mediated by cleavage of docosahexaenoic acid from membrane phospholipids by inPLA(2). These findings have implications for our understanding of the role of LC-PUFA homeostasis in myelin related neurodevelopmental disorders. (C) 2016 IBRO. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

To address this problem, we developed a data-driven approach to integrate and analyze raw source data from separate pre-clinical studies and evaluated interactions between four treatments following traumatic brain injury. Histologic and behavioral outcomes were measured in 202 rats treated with combinations of an anti-inflammatory agent (minocycline), a neurotrophic agent (LM11A-31), and physical therapy consisting of assisted exercise with or without botulinum toxin-induced limb constraint. Data was curated and analyzed in a linked workflow involving non-linear principal component analysis followed by hypothesis testing with a linear mixed model. Results revealed significant benefits of the neurotrophic agent LM11A-31 on learning and memory outcomes after traumatic brain injury. In addition, modulations of LM11A-31 effects by co-administration of minocycline and by the type of physical therapy applied reached statistical significance. These results suggest a combinatorial effect of drug and physical therapy interventions that was not evident by univariate analysis. The study designs and analytic techniques applied here form a structured, unbiased, internally validated workflow that may be applied to other combinatorial studies, both in animals and humans.

TI Effect of Chronic Kidney Disease on Mortality in Patients Who Underwent Lower Extremity Peripheral Vascular Intervention SO AMERICAN JOURNAL OF CARDIOLOGY LA English DT Article ID PERCUTANEOUS TRANSLUMINAL ANGIOPLASTY; GLOMERULAR-FILTRATION-RATE; ALL-CAUSE MORTALITY; ARTERIAL-DISEASE; CARDIOVASCULAR-DISEASE; RENAL-INSUFFICIENCY; CARDIAC-CATHETERIZATION; UNITED-STATES; RISK-FACTOR; HEART AB It is known that chronic kidney disease (CKD) is associated with increased postoperative morbidity and mortality in patients with peripheral artery disease who underwent lower extremity surgical revascularization; however, outcomes after peripheral vascular intervention (PVI) are less well established. This study sought to determine the impact of CKD on adverse outcomes in patients with peripheral artery disease who underwent PVI. Using data from the Veteran Affairs Clinical Assessment, Reporting, and Tracking System Program, we identified a cohort of 755 patients who underwent lower extremity PVI from June 2005 to August 2010 at 33 sites. The outcomes of interest were mortality, progression to dialysis, myocardial infarction, limb amputation, and stroke. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis and Cox proportional hazard frailty models assessed the association between CKD and adverse outcomes. Of the patients who underwent lower extremity PVI, 201 patients (27%) had CKD. The presence of CKD was associated with decreased survival (5-year survival probability of CKD compared with non-CKD: 49.9% [41.6% to 59.9%] vs 80.1% [76.2% to 84.1]), which persisted after risk adjustment (BR 1.57; 95% confidence interval 1.13 to 2.19). In addition, there was a significant association between CKD and progression to dialysis (HR 6.62; 95% confidence interval 2.25 to 19.43). In contrast, there was no association between CKD and re-hospitalization for myocardial infarction, limb amputation, or stroke. In conclusion, CKD is present in 1 of 4 patients who underwent PVI and is associated with increased risk of mortality and progression to dialysis. (C) 2016 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

TI Novel application of a Radial Water Tread maze can distinguish cognitive deficits in mice with traumatic brain injury SO BRAIN RESEARCH LA English DT Article DE Traumatic brain injury; Cognitive testing; Behavioral testing; Water maze; Controlled-cortical impact ID CONTROLLED CORTICAL IMPACT; CIRCULAR MAZE; MOUSE MODEL; RAT; TASKS; PERFORMANCE; IMPAIRMENT; RESPONSES; SEARCH AB Introduction: The use of forced-swim, rat-validated cognition tests in mouse models of traumatic brain injury (TBI) raises methodological concerns; such models are vulnerable to a number of confounding factors including impaired motor function and stress-induced non-compliance (failure to swim). This study evaluated the ability of a Radial Water Tread (RWT) maze, designed specifically for mice, that requires no swimming to distinguish mice with controlled cortical impact (CCI) induced TBI and Sham controls. Methods: Ten-week-old, male C57BL6/J mice were randomly assigned to receive either Sham (n = 14) or CCI surgeries (n = 15). Mice were tested for sensorimotor deficits via Gridwalk test and Noldus CatWalk gait analysis at I and 32 days post-injury. Mice received RWT testing at either 11 days (early time point) or 35 days (late time point) post-injury. Results: Compared to Sham-treated animals, CCI-induced TBI resulted in significant impairment in RWT maze performance. Additionally, CCI injured mice displayed significant deficits on the Gridwalk test at both I day and 32 days post-injury, and impairment in the CatWalk task at 1 day, but not 32 days, compared to Shams. Conclusions: The Radial Water Tread maze capitalizes on the natural tendency of mice to avoid open areas in favor of hugging the edges of an apparatus (thigmotaxis), and replaces a forced-swim model with water shallow enough that the animal is not required to swim, but aversive enough to motivate escape. Our findings indicate the RWT task is a sensitive species-appropriate behavioral test for evaluating spatial memory impairment in a mouse model of TBI. (C) 2016 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

TI Parsing Heterogeneity in the Brain Connectivity of Depressed and Healthy Adults During Positive Mood SO BIOLOGICAL PSYCHIATRY LA English DT Article DE Community detection; Depression; fMRI; Neural network connectivity; Positive mood; S-GIMME ID DEFAULT-MODE NETWORK; MAJOR DEPRESSION; FUNCTIONAL CONNECTIVITY; EMOTIONAL INFORMATION; DISORDER; FMRI; INDIVIDUALS; METAANALYSIS; HYPOTHESIS; RETRIEVAL AB BACKGROUND: There is well-known heterogeneity in affective mechanisms in depression that may extend to positive affect. We used data-driven parsing of neural connectivity to reveal subgroups present across depressed and healthy individuals during positive processing, informing targets for mechanistic intervention. METHODS: Ninety-two individuals (68 depressed patients, 24 never-depressed control subjects) completed a sustained positive mood induction during functional magnetic resonance imaging. Directed functional connectivity paths within a depression-relevant network were characterized using Group Iterative Multiple Model Estimation (GIMME), a method shown to accurately recover the direction and presence of connectivity paths in individual participants. During model selection, individuals were clustered using community detection on neural connectivity estimates. Subgroups were externally tested across multiple levels of analysis. RESULTS: Two connectivity-based subgroups emerged: subgroup A, characterized by weaker connectivity overall, and subgroup B, exhibiting hyperconnectivity (relative to subgroup A), particularly among ventral affective regions. Subgroup predicted diagnostic status (subgroup B contained 81% of patients; 50% of control subjects; chi(2) = 8.6, p = .003) and default mode network connectivity during a separate resting-state task. Among patients, subgroup B members had higher self-reported symptoms, lower sustained positive mood during the induction, and higher negative bias on a reaction-time task. Symptom-based depression subgroups did not predict these external variables. CONCLUSIONS: Neural connectivity-based categorization travels with diagnostic category and is clinically predictive, but not clinically deterministic. Both patients and control subjects showed heterogeneous, and overlapping, profiles. The larger and more severely affected patient subgroup was characterized by ventrally driven hyperconnectivity during positive processing. Data-driven parsing suggests heterogeneous substrates of depression and possible resilience in control subjects in spite of biological overlap.

The most important articles on infectious diseases (ID) pharmacotherapy published in the peer-reviewed literature in 2015, as nominated and selected by panels of pharmacists and others with ID expertise, are summarized. Summary. Members of the Houston Infectious Diseases Network were asked to nominate articles published in prominent peer-reviewed journals in 2015 that were thought to have a major impact in the field of ID pharmacotherapy. A list of 55 nominated articles on general ID-related topics and 10 articles specifically related to human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection or acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) was compiled. In a national online survey, members of the Society of Infectious Diseases Pharmacists (SIDP) were asked to select from the list 10 general ID articles believed to have made a significant contribution to the field of ID pharmacotherapy and 1 article contributing to HIV/AIDS pharmacotherapy. Of the 361 SIDP members surveyed, 153 (42%) and 76 (21%) participated in the selection of general ID-related articles and. HIV/AIDS-related articles, respectively. The 11 highest-ranked publications (10 general ID-related articles and 1 HIV/AIDS-related article) are summarized here. Conclusion. With the growing number of significant ID-related publications each year, it can be challenging to stay current with the literature. This review of important ID pharmacotherapy publications in 2015 may be helpful in identifying key articles and lessening this burden.

Objectives: To identify additional genetic susceptibility factors of asthma in European American and African American populations. Methods: A phenotyping algorithm mining electronic medical records was developed and validated to recruit cases with asthma and control subjects from the Electronic Medical Records and Genomics network. Genome-wide association analyses were performed in pediatric and adult asthma cases and control subjects with European American and African American ancestry followed by metaanalysis. Nominally significant results were reanalyzed conditioning on allergy status. Measurements and Main Results: The validation of the algorithm yielded an average of 95.8% positive predictive values for both cases and control subjects. The algorithm accrued 21,644 subjects (65.83% European American and 34.17% African American). We identified four novel population-specific associations with asthma after metaanalyses: loci 6p21.31, 9p21.2, and 10q21.3 in the European American population, and the PTGES gene in African Americans. TEK at 9p21.2, which encodes TIE2, has been shown to be involved in remodeling the airway wall in asthma, and the association remained significant after conditioning by allergy. PTGES, which encodes the prostaglandin E synthase, has also been linked to asthma, where deficient Prostaglandin E-2 synthesis has been associated with airway remodeling. Conclusions: This study adds to understanding of the genetic architecture of asthma in European Americans and African Americans and reinforces the need to study populations of diverse ethnic backgrounds to identify shared and unique genetic predictors of asthma.

TI DNA methylation as a putative mechanism for reduced dendritic spine density in the superior temporal gyrus of subjects with schizophrenia SO TRANSLATIONAL PSYCHIATRY LA English DT Article ID BIPOLAR DISORDER; HUMAN BRAIN; NEUROPSYCHIATRIC DISORDERS; PSYCHIATRIC-DISORDERS; AUDITORY-CORTEX; GENE-EXPRESSION; FRONTAL-CORTEX; SAP97 GENE; RISK; POSTMORTEM AB Reduced dendritic spine density (DSD) in cortical layer 3 of the superior temporal gyrus (STG), and multiple other brain regions, is consistently observed in postmortem studies of schizophrenia (SZ). Elucidating the molecular mechanisms of this intermediate phenotype holds promise for understanding SZ pathophysiology, identifying SZ treatment targets and developing animal models. DNA methylation (DNAm), the addition of a methyl group to a cytosine nucleotide, regulates gene transcription and is a strong candidate for such a mechanism. We tested the hypothesis that DNAm correlates with DSD in the human STG and that this relationship is disrupted in SZ. We used the Illumina Infinium Human Methylation 450 Beadchip Array to quantify DNAm on a genome-wide scale in the postmortem STG from 22 SZ subjects and matched non-psychiatric control (NPC) subjects; DSD measures were available for 17 of the 22 subject pairs. We found DNAm to correlate with DSD at more sites than expected by chance in NPC, but not SZ, subjects. In addition, we show that the slopes of the linear DNAm-DSD correlations differed between SZ and NPC subjects at more sites than expected by chance. From these data, we identified 2 candidate genes for mediating DSD abnormalities in SZ: brain-specific angiogenesis inhibitor 1-associated protein 2 (BAIAP2) and discs large, Drosophila, homolog of, 1 (DLG1). Together, these data suggest that altered DNAm in SZ may be a mechanism for SZ-related DSD reductions. C1 [McKinney, B.; Lewis, D. A.; Sweet, R.

In general, laparoscopic procedures have a lower risk of morbidity and mortality compared with operations requiring a midline laparotomy. During laparoscopic surgery, carbon dioxide insufflation may produce significant hemodynamic and ventilatory consequences such as increased intraabdominal pressure and hypercarbia. Hemodynamic insults secondary to increased intraabdominal pressure include increased afterload and preload and decreased cardiac output, whereas ventilatory consequences include increased airway pressures, hypercarbia, and decreased pulmonary compliance. Hemodynamic effects are accentuated in patients with cardiovascular disease such as congestive heart failure, ischemic heart disease, valvular heart disease, pulmonary hypertension, and congenital heart disease. Prevention of cardiovascular complications may be accomplished through a sound understanding of the hemodynamic and physiological consequences of laparoscopic surgery as well as a defined operative plan generated by a multidisciplinary team involving the preoperative consultant, anesthesiologist, and surgeon.

We recently reported that structural aberrations in brain microvascular ECs-namely, uncontrolled actin polymerization and subsequent disassembly of junctional proteins, are a possible cause of the early onset BBB breach that arises within 30-60 min of reperfusion after transient focal ischemia. Here, we investigated the role of heat shock protein 27 (HSP27) as a direct inhibitor of actin polymerization and protectant against BBB disruption after ischemia/reperfusion (I/R). Using in vivo and in vitro models, we found that targeted overexpression of HSP27 specifically within ECs-but not within neurons-ameliorated BBB impairment 1-24 h after I/R. Mechanistically, HSP27 suppressed I/R-induced aberrant actin polymerization, stress fiber formation, and junctional protein translocation in brain microvascular ECs, independent of its protective actions against cell death. By preserving BBB integrity after I/R, EC-targeted HSP27 overexpression attenuated the infiltration of potentially destructive neutrophils and macrophages into brain parenchyma, thereby improving long-term stroke outcome. Notably, early poststroke administration of HSP27 attached to a cell-penetrating transduction domain (TAT-HSP27) rapidly elevated HSP27 levels in brain microvessels and ameliorated I/R-induced BBB disruption and subsequent neurological deficits. Thus, the present study demonstrates that HSP27 can function at the EC level to preserve BBB integrity after I/R brain injury. HSP27 may be a therapeutic agent for ischemic stroke and other neurological conditions involving BBB breakdown.

TI Racial and ethnic differences in smoking changes after chronic disease diagnosis among middle-aged and older adults in the United States SO BMC GERIATRICS LA English DT Article DE Racial/ethnic disparities; Smoking; Behavior change; Chronic disease; Disease management ID SELF-REPORTED HYPERTENSION; CARDIAC REHABILITATION; AFRICAN-AMERICAN; HEALTH BEHAVIOR; CESSATION; SMOKERS; LIFE; VALIDITY; MENTHOL; BLACKS AB Background: Middle-aged and older Americans from underrepresented racial and ethnic backgrounds are at risk for greater chronic disease morbidity than their white counterparts. Cigarette smoking increases the severity of chronic illness, worsens physical functioning, and impairs the successful management of symptoms. As a result, it is important to understand whether smoking behaviors change after the onset of a chronic condition. We assessed the racial/ethnic differences in smoking behavior change after onset of chronic diseases among middle-aged and older adults in the US. Methods: We use longitudinal data from the Health and Retirement Study (HRS 1992-2010) to examine changes in smoking status and quantity of cigarettes smoked after a new heart disease, diabetes, cancer, stroke, or lung disease diagnosis among smokers. Results: The percentage of middle-aged and older smokers who quit after a new diagnosis varied by racial/ethnic group and disease: for white smokers, the percentage ranged from 14% after diabetes diagnosis to 32% after cancer diagnosis; for black smokers, the percentage ranged from 15% after lung disease diagnosis to 40% after heart disease diagnosis; the percentage of Latino smokers who quit was only statistically significant after stoke, where 38% quit. In logistic models, black (OR = 0.43, 95% CI: 0.19-0.99) and Latino (OR = 0.26, 95% CI: 0.11-0.65) older adults were less likely to continue smoking relative to white older adults after a stroke, and Latinos were more likely to continue smoking relative to black older adults after heart disease onset (OR = 2.69, 95% CI [1.05-6.95]). In models evaluating changes in the number of cigarettes smoked after a new diagnosis, black older adults smoked significantly fewer cigarettes than whites after a new diagnosis of diabetes, heart disease, stroke or cancer, and Latino older adults smoked significantly fewer cigarettes compared to white older adults after newly diagnosed diabetes and heart disease. Relative to black older adults, Latinos smoked significantly fewer cigarettes after newly diagnosed diabetes. Conclusions: A large majority of middle-aged and older smokers continued to smoke after diagnosis with a major chronic disease. Black participants demonstrated the largest reductions in smoking behavior. These findings have important implications for tailoring secondary prevention efforts for older adults.

Receipt of prescription medications across unconnected systems of care may increase the risk for unsafe prescribing, particularly in persons with dementia. Objective: To investigate the association between dual health care system use and potentially unsafe medication (PUM) prescribing. Design: Retrospective cohort study. Setting: National VA outpatient care facilities in 2010. Participants: 75 829 veterans with dementia who were continuously enrolled in Medicare from 2007 to 2010; 80% were VA-only users, and 20% were VA-Medicare Part D (dual) users. Measurements: Augmented inverse propensity weighting was used to estimate the effect of dual-system versus VA-only prescribing on 4 indicators of PUM prescribing in 2010: any exposure to Healthcare Effectiveness Data and Information Set (HEDIS) high-risk medication in older adults (PUM-HEDIS), any daily exposure to prescriptions with a cumulative Anticholinergic Cognitive Burden (ACB) score of 3 or higher (PUM-ACB), any antipsychotic prescription (PUM-antipsychotic), and any PUM exposure (any-PUM). The annual number of days of each PUM exposure was also examined. Results: Compared with VA-only users, dual users had more than double the odds of exposure to any-PUM (odds ratio [OR], 2.2 [95% CI, 2.2 to 2.3]), PUM-HEDIS (OR, 2.4 [CI, 2.2 to 2.8]), and PUM-ACB (OR, 2.1 [CI, 2.0 to 2.2]). The odds of PUM-antipsychotic exposure were also greater in dual users (OR, 1.5 [CI, 1.4 to 1.6]). Dual users had an adjusted average of 44.1 additional days of any-PUM exposure (CI, 37.2 to 45.0 days). Limitation: Observational study design of veteran outpatients only. Conclusion: Among veterans with dementia, rates of PUM prescribing are significantly higher among dual-system users than with VA-only users.

Material/Methods: We prospectively matched 234 patients who received cEEG (cases) by admission diagnosis and sex to 234 patients who did not receive cEEG (controls) and followed them until discharge. Patients admitted due to seizures were excluded. The primary measures of outcome were Glasgow Coma Scale at Discharge (GCSD) and disposition at discharge, and the secondary measures of outcome were AED modifications, Glasgow Outcomes Scale, and Modified-Rankin Scale. These outcomes were compared between the cases and controls. Results: Some differences in primary outcome measures between the groups emerged on univariate analyses, but these differences were small and not significant after controlling for covariates. Cases had longer ICU stays (p=0.002) and lower admission GCS (p=0.01) but similar GCSD (p=0.10). Of the secondary outcome measures, the mean (SD) number of AED modifications for cases was 2.2 +/- 3.1 compared to 0.4 +/- 0.8 for controls (p<0.0001); 170 (72.6%) cases had at least 1 AED modification compared to only 56 (24.1%) of the controls (p<0.0001). Conclusions: Performing cEEG did not improve discharge outcome but it significantly influenced AED prescription patterns. Further studies assessing long-term outcomes are needed to better define the role of cEEG in this patient population.

However, few data exist on what new patients value in the beginning of a relationship with a new provider. Persons with HIV infection may be an ideal population to study the drivers of a positive initial patient-provider relationship, as it is a chronic and serious condition that requires a reliable, ongoing relationship with a provider. Informed by patients' real experiences, this study aims to identify what patients see as the most critical elements for building trust and rapport from the outset. Methods: We conducted longitudinal, in-person interviews with 21 patients new to the HIV clinic at the Michael E. DeBakey Veterans Affairs Medical Center in Houston, Texas, from August 2013 to March 2015. Patients were interviewed across three time points: once before their first provider visit, a second time within two weeks after the first visit, and a third time at 6 to 12 months after the first provider visit. Results: We conducted 61 h of patient interviews. The mean age was 53 years; 52% were non-Hispanic white, 23% were non-Hispanic black and 19% were Hispanic. Patients described significant anxiety and vulnerability not just from HIV itself, but also in starting a relationship as a new patient to a new provider. Our analysis of these experiences revealed five actions providers can take to reduce their patients' anxiety and build trust early in the first visit: 1) provide reassurance to patients, 2) tell patients it's okay to ask questions, 3) show patients their lab results and explain what they mean, 4) avoid language and behaviors that are judgmental of patients, and 5) ask patients what they want [i.e., treatment goals and preferences]. Conclusions: Our study incorporates direct input from patients and highlights the unique psychological challenges that patients face in seeking care from a new provider. The actionable opportunities cited by patients have the potential to mitigate patients' feelings of anxiety and vulnerability, and thereby improve their overall health care experience.

TI Protocol for the development of a core domain set for hidradenitis suppurativa trial outcomes SO BMJ OPEN LA English DT Article ID CLINICAL-TRIALS; SYSTEMATIC REVIEWS; PREVALENCE; QUALITY; OMERACT; IMPROVE AB Introduction: Randomised controlled trials (RCTs) should have well-defined primary and secondary outcomes to answer questions generated by the main hypotheses. However, for the chronic, inflammatory skin disease hidradenitis suppurativa (HS), the reported outcome measures are numerous and diverse. A recent systematic review found a total of 30 outcome measure instruments in 12 RCTs. This use of a broad range of outcome measures can increase difficulties in interpretation and comparison of results and may potentially obstruct appropriate evidence synthesis by causing reporting bias. One strategy for dealing with these problems is to develop a core outcome set (COS). A COS is a list of outcomes that are meant as mandatory and should be measured and reported in all clinical trials. The aim of this study is to develop a COS for the management of HS. Method and analysis: An international steering group of researchers, clinicians and a patient research partner will guide the COS development. 6 stakeholder groups are involved: patients, dermatologists, surgeons, nurses, industry representatives and drug regulatory authorities. A 1: 1 ratio of patients: healthcare professionals is aimed for. The initial list of candidate items will be obtained by combining three data sets: (1) a systematic review of the literature, (2) US and Danish qualitative interview studies involving patients with HS and (3) an online healthcare professional (HCP) item generation survey. To reach consensus on the COS, 4 anonymous online Delphi rounds are then planned together with 2 face-to-face consensus meetings (1 in Europe and 1 in the USA) to ensure global representation. Ethics and dissemination: The study will be performed according to the Helsinki declaration. All results from the study, including inconclusive or negative results, will be published in peer-reviewed indexed journals. The study will involve different stakeholder groups to ensure that the developed COS will be suitable and well accepted. C1 [Thorlacius, Linnea; Esmann, Solveig; Jemec, Gregor B.

TI Improving geriatric prescribing in the ED: a qualitative study of facilitators and barriers to clinical decision support tool use SO INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL FOR QUALITY IN HEALTH CARE LA English DT Article DE quality improvement; quality management, qualitative methods; general methodology, appropriateness, under-use and over-use appropriate healthcare, elderly; specific populations, emergency care; setting of care ID EMERGENCY-DEPARTMENT; CONTROLLED-TRIAL; OLDER-ADULTS; SYSTEMS; CARE AB Quality problem or issue: Clinical decision support (CDS) may improve prescribing for older adults in the Emergency Department (ED) if adopted by providers. Initial assessment: Existing prescribing order entry processes were mapped at an initial Veterans Administration Medical Center site, demonstrating cognitive burden, effort and safety concerns. Choice of solution: Geriatric order sets incorporating 2012 Beers guidelines and including geriatric prescribing advice and prepopulated order options were developed. Implementation: Geriatric order sets were implemented at two sites as part of the multicomponent 'Enhancing Quality of Prescribing Practices for Older Veterans Discharged from the Emergency Department' quality improvement initiative. Evaluation: Facilitators and barriers to order sets use at the two sites were evaluated. Phone interviews were conducted with two provider groups (n = 20), those 'EQUiPPED' with the interventions (n = 10, 5 at each site) and Comparison providerswho were only exposed to order sets through a clickable option on the ED order menu within the patient's medical record (n = 10, 5 at each site). All providers were asked about order set 'use' and 'usefulness'. Users (n = 11) were asked about 'usability'. Lessons learned: Order set adopters described 'usefulness' in terms of 'safety' and 'efficiency', whereas order set consultants and order set non-users described 'usefulness' in terms of 'information' or 'training'. Provider 'autonomy', 'comfort' level with existing tools, and 'learning curve' were stated as barriers to use. Conclusions: Quantifying efficiency advantages and communicating safety benefit over preexisting practices and tools may improve adoption of CDS in ED and in other settings of care.

TI Concise Review: The Potential Use of Intestinal Stem Cells to Treat Patients with Intestinal Failure SO STEM CELLS TRANSLATIONAL MEDICINE LA English DT Review DE Intestinal failure; Congenital diarrhea; Microvillus inclusion disease; Congenital tufting enteropathy; Intestinal stem cell ID MOUSE SMALL-INTESTINE; IN-VITRO; TUMOR-SUPPRESSOR; GENE-THERAPY; WNT RECEPTORS; GROUND-STATE; SELF-RENEWAL; HUMAN COLON; EPITHELIUM; CRYPT AB Intestinal failure is a rare life-threatening condition that results in the inability to maintain normal growth and hydration status by enteral nutrition alone. Although parenteral nutrition and whole organ allogeneic transplantation have improved the survival of these patients, current therapies are associated with a high risk for morbidity and mortality. Development of methods to propagate adult human intestinal stem cells (ISCs) and pluripotent stem cells raises the possibility of using stem cell-based therapy for patients with monogenic and polygenic forms of intestinal failure. Organoids have demonstrated the capacity to proliferate indefinitely and differentiate into the various cellular lineages of the gut. Genome-editing techniques, including the overexpression of the corrected form of the defective gene, or the use of CRISPR (clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats)/Cas9 to selectively correct the monogenic disease-causing variant within the stem cell, make autologous ISC transplantation a feasible approach. However, numerous techniques still need to be further optimized, including more robust ex vivo ISC expansion, native ISC ablation, and engraftment protocols. Large-animal models can to be used to develop such techniques and protocols and to establish the safety of autologous ISC transplantation because outcomes in such models can be extrapolated more readily to humans.

TI The Use of Life-Sustaining Procedures in the Last Month of Life Is Associated With More Depressive Symptoms in Surviving Spouses SO JOURNAL OF PAIN AND SYMPTOM MANAGEMENT LA English DT Article DE Caregiving; end-of-life care; life-sustaining procedures; bereavement ID INTENSIVE-CARE-UNIT; POSTTRAUMATIC STRESS; REGIONAL-VARIATIONS; FAMILY-MEMBERS; OLDER-ADULTS; MEDICARE BENEFICIARIES; ADVANCE DIRECTIVES; DECISION-MAKING; SERIOUS ILLNESS; END AB Context. Family caregivers of individuals with serious illness who undergo intensive life-sustaining medical procedures at the end of life may be at risk of negative consequences including depression. Objectives. The objective of this study was to determine the association between patients' use of life-sustaining procedures at the end of life and depressive symptoms in their surviving spouses. Methods. We used data from the Health and Retirement Study, a longitudinal survey of U. S. residents, linked to Medicare claims data. We included married Medicare beneficiaries aged 65 years and older who died between 2000 and 2011 (n = 1258) and their surviving spouses. The use of life-sustaining procedures (i. e., intubation/mechanical ventilation, tracheostomy, gastrostomy tube insertion, enteral/parenteral nutrition, and cardiopulmonary resuscitation) in the last month of life was measured via claims data. Using propensity score matching, we compared change in depressive symptoms of surviving spouses. Results. Eighteen percent of decedents underwent one or more life-sustaining procedures in the last month of life. Those whose spouses underwent life-sustaining procedures had a 0.32-point increase in depressive symptoms after death (scale range = 0-8) and a greater likelihood of clinically significant depression (odds ratio = 1.51) compared with a matched sample of spouses of those who did not have procedures (P < 0.05). Conclusion. Surviving spouses of those who undergo intensive life-sustaining procedures at the end of life experience a greater magnitude of increase in depressive symptoms than those whose spouses do not undergo such procedures. Further study of the circumstances and decision making surrounding these procedures is needed to understand their relationship with survivors' negative mental health consequences and how best to provide appropriate support.

Andersen's model addresses predisposing, enabling, and need factors that influence health services use. ATLASti was used to code all interviews and to extract HIV-related themes. The aim of this study was to: (1) add a new dimension to the literature on HIV care services in rural areas, (2) reveal factors that impact ability to provide care to PLWH in rural areas, and (3) suggest ways in which providers and administrators may address any unmet health care needs of PLWH. Respondents perceived systems factors to be more important determinants of access to care for individuals living with HIV and supported ongoing trainings that would increase staff understanding of the needs of people living with HIV.

CA Hlth ABC Study TI Visit-to-Visit Blood Pressure Variability and Mortality and Cardiovascular Outcomes Among Older Adults: The Health, Aging, and Body Composition Study SO AMERICAN JOURNAL OF HYPERTENSION LA English DT Article DE blood pressure; blood pressure variability; hypertension; mortality; stroke; myocardial infarction; aged ID ALL-CAUSE MORTALITY; CORONARY-HEART-DISEASE; LONG-TERM; PROGNOSTIC-SIGNIFICANCE; EPISODIC HYPERTENSION; MYOCARDIAL-INFARCTION; METAANALYSIS; ASSOCIATION; STROKE; RISK AB BACKGROUND Level of blood pressure (BP) is strongly associated with cardiovascular (CV) events and mortality. However, it is questionable whether mean BP can fully capture BP-related vascular risk. Increasing attention has been given to the value of visit-to-visit BP variability. METHODS We examined the association of visit-to-visit BP variability with mortality, incident myocardial infarction (MI), and incident stroke among 1,877 well-functioning elders in the Health, Aging, and Body Composition Study. We defined visit-to-visit diastolic BP (DBP) and systolic BP (SBP) variability as the root-mean-square error of person-specific linear regression of BP as a function of time. Alternatively, we counted the number of considerable BP increases and decreases (separately; 10 mm Hg for DBP and 20 mm Hg for SBP) between consecutive visits for each individual. RESULTS Over an average follow-up of 8.5 years, 623 deaths (207 from CV disease), 153 MIs, and 156 strokes occurred. The median visit-to-visit DBP and SBP variability was 4.96 mmHg and 8.53 mmHg, respectively. After multivariable adjustment, visit-to-visit DBP variability was related to higher all-cause (hazard ratio (HR) = 1.18 per 1 SD, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 1.01-1.37) and CV mortality (HR = 1.35, 95% CI = 1.051.73). Additionally, individuals having more considerable decreases of DBP (>= 10mm Hg between 2 consecutive visits) had higher risk of allcause (HR = 1.13, 95% CI = 0.99-1.28) and CV mortality (HR = 1.30, 95% CI = 1.05-1.61); considerable increases of SBP (>= 20 mm Hg) were associated with higher risk of all-cause (HR = 1.18, 95% CI = 1.03-1.36) and CV mortality (HR = 1.37, 95% CI = 1.08-1.74). CONCLUSIONS Visit-to-visit DBP variability and considerable changes in DBP and SBP were risk factors for mortality in the elderly.

TI Synchronized Prescription Refills and Medication Adherence: A Retrospective Claims Analysis SO AMERICAN JOURNAL OF MANAGED CARE LA English DT Article ID ORDER PHARMACY USE; PERSISTENCE; USERS AB OBJECTIVES: Medication adherence is often suboptimal, especially among patients on multiple chronic medications. We examined the association between synchronized medication refill schedules-which typically reduce organizational effort and logistical demands-and adherence. STUDY DESIGN: Retrospective study among patients enrolled in Medicare Advantage prescription drug plans. METHODS: We used 2012 pharmacy, medical, and enrollment data linked with consumer meta-data for Medicare patients filling 2 or more maintenance prescriptions for antihypertensives, lipid-lowering agents, antidiabetic agents, antidepressants, and/or antiosteoporotic agents. Medication adherence for the year was measured using the proportion of days covered (PDC) at the drug class level. Patients were deemed adherent if drug class PDC was = 0.80. Outcomes were compared between 1: 1 propensity score-matched patients on synchronized versus nonsynchronized refill schedules for maintenance medications. RESULTS: The synchronized refill group showed better adherence than the control group, although the magnitude of effects varied by drug class and specific outcome measure. Mean PDC scores ranged from 0.02 higher for antihypertensives to 0.07 higher for antidepressants in the synchronized refill group relative to the control group (P <. 01). Further, compared with the control group, a larger proportion of synchronized refill group members were deemed adherent, ranging from 6 percentage points higher for antihypertensives to 15 percentage points higher for lipid-lowering agents (P <. 01). Differences between the synchronized and control groups were larger among exclusive users of retail versus mail order pharmacies for maintenance medications. CONCLUSIONS: Synchronized medication refill schedules were associated with better medication adherence, particularly for patients filling maintenance medications exclusively at retail pharmacies.

Older cancer patients often wrestle with underlying heart disease during cancer therapy, whereas childhood cancer survivors are living long enough to face long-term unintended cardiac consequences of cancer therapies, including anthracyclines. Although effective and widely used, particularly in the pediatric population, anthracycline-related side effects including dose-dependent association with cardiac dysfunction limit their usage. Currently, there is only one United States Food and Drug Administration-approved drug, dexrazoxane, available for the prevention and mitigation of cardiotoxicity related to anthracycline therapy. While aerobic exercise has been shown to reduce cardiovascular complications in multiple diseases, its role as a therapeutic approach to mitigate cardiovascular consequences of cancer therapy is in its infancy. This systematic review aims to summarize how aerobic exercise can help to alleviate unintended cardiotoxic side effects and identify gaps in need of further research. While published work supports the benefits of aerobic exercise, additional clinical investigations are warranted to determine the effects of different exercise modalities, timing, and duration to identify optimal aerobic training regimens for reducing cardiovascular complications, particularly late cardiac effects, in cancer survivors exposed to anthracyclines.

TI Characterization of Prostacyclin-associated Leg Pain in Patients with Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension SO ANNALS OF THE AMERICAN THORACIC SOCIETY LA English DT Article AB Rationale: Prostacyclinassociated leg pain is a potentially debilitating adverse effect of prostacyclin therapy for patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). However, to our knowledge, this entity has not been systematically studied. Objectives: To characterize the clinical features and metabolic risk factors for prostacyclinassociated leg pain. Methods: At one academic medical center, we assembled and analyzed a case series of patients with PAH and prostacyclin-associated leg pain. Measurements and Main Results: Over a period of 2 years, we identified 11 patients with PAH and prostacyclinassociated leg pain who agreed to participate in this study. Subjects underwent a standardized clinical evaluation, electrodiagnostic assessment, and serologic screen for metabolic causes of peripheral neuropathy. All 11 patients were female; their mean (SD) age was 50 (+/- 9) years; their median (interquartile range) PAH duration was 56 (20-96) months; and their prostacyclin therapy duration was a median (interquartile range) of 20 (14-36) months. All patients reported leg pain beginning soon after prostacyclin initiation and varying with dose. All described a neuropathic pain in a symmetric, distal, stocking distribution. Neurologic examination revealed a sensory, small-fiber, predominantly peripheral neuropathy in seven (78%) patients. Results of autonomic reflex testing and thermoregulatory sweat testing were abnormal in 82% and 90% of patients, respectively, suggesting smallfiber neuropathy. Serologic evaluation identified a new, previously unrecognized contributor to neuropathy in eight (73%) patients, including vitamin B-12 deficiency in six (55%), uncompensated hypothyroidism in three (27%), and diabetes mellitus in one (9%). Conclusions: Chronic prostacyclin-associated leg pain is associated with a small-fiber neuropathy. Treatable metabolic contributors (vitamin B12 deficiency, thyroid dysfunction, or diabetes) appear to be common possible "second hits" that may be underrecognized. We recommend screening for possible metabolic contributors in patients who have otherwise unexplained leg pain in the setting of PAH and current or anticipated prostacyclin therapy.

TI Development of a Sleep Telementorship Program for Rural Department of Veterans Affairs Primary Care Providers: Sleep Veterans Affairs Extension for Community Healthcare Outcomes SO ANNALS OF THE AMERICAN THORACIC SOCIETY LA English DT Article AB Rationale: Primary care providers (PCPs) frequently encounter sleep complaints, especially in regions with limited specialty care access. Objectives: The U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs Extension for Community Healthcare Outcomes (VA-ECHO) program (based on Project ECHO) has successfully provided rural PCP education in subspecialty areas, including hepatitis C. Wedescribe the feasibility of an ECHO program for sleep medicine. Methods: ECHO creates a virtual learning community through video-teleconferencing, combining didactics with individualized clinical case review. We invited multidisciplinary providers to attend up to 10 stand-alone, 1-hour sessions. Invitees completed a needs assessment, which guided curriculum development. After program completion, we examined participant characteristics and self-reported changes in practice and comfort with managing sleep complaints. We surveyed participation barriers among invitees with low/no attendance. Measurements and Main Results: Of the 39 program participants, 38% worked in rural healthcare. Participants included nurse practitioners (26%), registered nurses (21%), and physicians (15%). Seventeen (44%) completed the summative program evaluation. Respondents anticipated practice change from the program, especially in patient education about sleep disorders (93% of respondents). Respondents reported improved comfort managing sleep complaints, especially sleep-disordered breathing, insomnia, and sleep in post-traumatic stress disorder (80% of respondents each). A follow-up survey of program invitees who attended zero to two sessions reported scheduling conflicts (62%) and lack of protected time (52%) as major participation barriers. Conclusions: Participants in a pilot sleep medicine VA-ECHO program report practice change and increased comfort managing common sleep complaints. Future work is needed to identify objective measures of return on investment and address participation barriers.

Although several animal models have been developed to investigate the pathogenesis and disease progression in ALS and FTD, there are significant limitations that hamper our ability to connect these models with the neurodegenerative processes in human diseases. With the technical breakthrough in reprogramming biology, it is now possible to generate patient-specific induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) and disease-relevant neuron subtypes. This review provides a comprehensive summary of studies that use iPSC-derived neurons to model ALS and FTD. We discuss the unique capabilities of iPSC-derived neurons that capture some key features of ALS and FTD, and underscore their potential roles in drug discovery. There are, however, several critical caveats that require improvements before iPSC-derived neurons can become highly effective disease models. Published by Elsevier B.V.

Many of these urine studies are performed prior to the patient visit may not always be indicated, thus contributing to unintended consequences such as antibiotic use and costs without enhancing patient care. Our objective was to perform a quality improvement initiative aimed to assess the utility of routine UA/UCx. Materials and methods: The practice pattern at our site's Veteran Affairs (VA) urology clinic prior to 2014 was to obtain routine UA/UCx on most clinic visits prior to patient evaluation. Starting in 2014, we designed an intervention whereby our nurse practitioner triaged all new patient referrals and selectively ordered UA/UCx. We performed multivariable logistic regression to assess for predictors of obtaining UA or UCx. Results: A total of 1308 patients were seen in January March 2013 and 1456 in June-August 2014 and were included in this analysis. Fewer patients in 2014 received UA (59.8% versus 70.0%, p < 0.001) and UCx (49.6% versus 64.2%, p < 0.001). There was a decreased odds of obtaining UA in 2014 (OR 0.52, p < 0.001) as well as a decreased odds of obtaining UCx in 2014 (OR0.38, p < 0.001) on multivariable logistic regression. The results of UA/UCx only rarely resulted in change of management in either cohort (3%). Selective ordering resulted in an estimated cost savings of $4915.08/month in UCx costs alone. Conclusions: Our quality improvement initiatives reduced rates of UA/UCx testing when providers assess patients prior to ordering these tests. The implication of this initiative is significant cost savings for the healthcare system.

This population is often excluded from clinical studies. METHODS: We performed a prospective study of treatment-naive (n = 47) and treatment-experienced (n = 19) patients with chronic hepatitis C virus genotype 2 infection and compensated cirrhosis at 15 Department of Veterans Affairs sites. All subjects were given sofosbuvir (400 mg, once daily) plus ribavirin (1000-1200 mg/day) in divided doses for 12 weeks. Patients with major psychiatric diseases or alcohol or substance use disorders were not excluded. The primary endpoint was sustained virologic response 12 weeks after therapy. RESULTS: Fifty- two patients achieved a sustained virologic response 12 weeks after therapy (79%; 95% confidence interval, 67%-88%); 16 of these patients were treatment experienced (84%; 95% confidence interval, 60%-97%) and 36 were treatment naive (77%; 95% confidence interval, 62%-88%). All patients had at least 1 comorbidity. Thirty-five percent had depression, 24% had posttraumatic stress disorder, and 30% had anxiety disorder. In addition, 29% had current substance use. Of the 7 patients (11%) who discontinued the study treatment prematurely, 3 did so because of adverse events. The most common adverse events were fatigue, anemia, nausea, and headache. Serious adverse events occurred in 8 patients. Only 2 of the serious adverse events (anemia and nausea) were considered to be related to study treatment. CONCLUSIONS: In a phase 4 study, 12 weeks treatment with sofosbuvir and ribavirin led to a sustained virologic response 12 weeks after therapy in almost 80% of veterans with hepatitis C virus genotype 2 infection, compensated cirrhosis, and multiple comorbidities, regardless of their treatment history.

TI Plasmacytoid dendritic cell distribution and maturation are altered in lupus prone mice prior to the onset of clinical disease SO CLINICAL IMMUNOLOGY LA English DT Article DE Rodent; Dendritic cells; Autoimmunity; Systemic lupus erythematosus ID I INTERFERON; PDC-TREM; SIGLEC-H; RECEPTOR; ERYTHEMATOSUS; ALPHA; AUTOIMMUNITY; EXPRESSION; ANTIGEN-2; IMMUNITY AB Plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs) and their production of type I interferons (IFN) are key pathogenic mediators of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Despite the key role of pDCs in SLE, the mechanism by which pDCs promote disease is not well understood. The first objective for this study was to assess the number and maturation state of pDCs in pre-disease NZM2410 lupus prone mice compared to control mice. Second, we sought to identify mechanisms responsible for the alteration in pDCs in NZM mice prior to onset of clinical disease. We compared the number and percent of pDCs in the spleens and bone marrow (BM) of pre-disease NZM24010 (NZM) mice to C57BL/6 (B6) control mice. In the spleens of pre-disease NZM mice, pDC percent and number were increased. This increase occurs in parallel with a decrease in BM pDC number and percent in the NZM mice. The decrease in BM pDC number suggests the increase in spleen pDCs is a result of altered pDC distribution and not increased production of pDCs in the BM. To determine if pDC developmental potential is altered in lupus prone mice, we cultured BM from NZM and B6 mice in vitro. We found a reduced percentage/number of pDCs developing from the BM of NZM mice compared to B6 mice, which further supports that the increase in pDC number is a result of altered pDC distribution rather than increased pDC production. To better characterize the pDC population, we compared the percentage of mature pDCs in the spleens and BM of NZM mice to controls. In the NZM mice, there is a dramatic reduction in the number of mature pDCs in the BM of NZM mice, suggesting that mature pDCs exit the BM at a higher rate/earlier maturation time compared to healthy mice. We conclude that pDCs contribution to disease pathogenesis in NZM mice may include the alteration of pDC distribution to increase the number of pDCs in the spleen prior to disease onset.

Volpp, Kevin TI The design and conduct of Keep It Off: An online randomized trial of financial incentives for weight-loss maintenance SO CLINICAL TRIALS LA English DT Article DE Behavioral economics; financial incentive; obesity; pragmatic trial; randomized trial; weight-loss maintenance ID LOW-CARBOHYDRATE; UNITED-STATES; RISK-FACTORS; OBESITY; OVERWEIGHT; METAANALYSIS; PREVALENCE; PREVENTION; DIETS AB Background Obesity continues to be a serious public health challenge. Rates are increasing worldwide, with nearly 70% of the US adults overweight or obese, leading to increased clinical and economic burden. While successful approaches for achieving weight loss have been identified, techniques for long-term maintenance of initial weight loss have largely been unsuccessful. Financial incentive interventions have been shown in several settings to be successful in motivating participants to adopt healthy behaviors. Purpose Keep It Off is a three-arm randomized controlled trial that compares the efficacy of a lottery-based incentive, traditional direct payment incentive, and control of daily feedback without any incentive for weight-loss maintenance. This design allows comparison of a traditional direct payment incentive with one based on behavioral economic principles that consider the underlying psychology of decision-making. Methods Participants were randomized in a 2:1 ratio for each active arm relative to control, with a targeted 188 participants in total. Eligible participants were those aged 30-80 who lost at least 11lb (5kg) during the first 4months of participation in Weight Watchers, a national weight-loss program, with whom we partnered. The interventions lasted 6months (Phase I); participants were followed for an additional 6months without intervention (Phase II). The primary outcome is weight change from baseline to the end of Phase I, with the change at the end of Phase II a key secondary endpoint. Keep It Off is a pragmatic trial that recruited, consented, enrolled, and followed patients electronically. Participants were provided a wireless weight scale that electronically transmitted daily self-monitored weights. Weights were verified every 3months at a Weight Watchers center local to the participant and electronically transmitted. Results Using the study web-based platform, we integrated recruitment, enrollment, and follow-up procedures into a digital platform that required little staff effort to implement and manage. We randomized 191 participants in less than 1year. We describe the design of Keep It Off and implementation of enrollment. Lessons Learned We demonstrated that our pragmatic design was successful in rapid accrual of participants in a trial of interventions to maintain weight loss. Limitations Despite the nationwide reach of Weight Watchers, the generalizability of study findings may be limited by the characteristics of its members. The interventions under study are appropriate for settings where an entity, such as an employer or health insurance company, could offer them as a benefit. Conclusions Keep It Off was implemented and conducted with minimal staff effort. This study has the potential to identify a practical and effective weight-loss maintenance strategy.

TI Novel Cardiac Intracrine Mechanisms Based on Ang-(1-12)/ Chymase Axis Require a Revision of Therapeutic Approaches in Human Heart Disease SO CURRENT HYPERTENSION REPORTS LA English DT Review DE Intracrine; Angiotensin-(1-12); Chymase; Cardiomyocyte; Angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor; Angiotensin receptor blockers ID ANGIOTENSIN-CONVERTING-ENZYME; HIGH-RISK PATIENTS; LEFT-VENTRICULAR DYSFUNCTION; RANDOMIZED CONTROLLED-TRIAL; HIGH CARDIOVASCULAR RISK; CORONARY-ARTERY-DISEASE; II-RECEPTOR BLOCKERS; BLOOD-PRESSURE; MYOCARDIAL-INFARCTION; FORMING PATHWAYS AB Purpose of the Review Drugs targeting the renin-angiotensin system (RAS), namely angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors and angiotensin receptor blockers, are the most commonly prescribed drugs for patients with or at risk for cardiovascular events. However, new treatment strategies aimed at mitigating the rise of the heart failure pandemic are warranted because clinical trials show that RAS blockers have limited benefits in halting disease progression. The main goal of this review is to put forward the concept of an intracrine RAS signaling through the novel angiotensin-(1-12)/chymase axis as the main source of deleterious angiotensin II (Ang II) in cardiac maladaptive remodeling leading to heart failure (HF). Recent Findings Expanding traditional knowledge, Ang II can be produced in tissues independently from the circulatory renin-angiotensin system. In the heart, angiotensin-(1-12) [Ang-(1-12)], a recently discovered derivative of angiotensinogen, is a precursor of Ang II, and chymase rather than ACE is the main enzyme contributing to the direct production of Ang II from Ang-(1-12). The Ang-(1-12)/chymase axis is an independent intracrine pathway accounting for the trophic, contractile, and pro-arrhythmic Ang II actions in the human heart. Ang-(1-12) expression and chymase activity have been found elevated in the left atrial appendage of heart disease subjects, suggesting a pivotal role of this axis in the progression of HF. Summary Recent meta-analysis of large clinical trials on the use of ACE inhibitors and angiotensin receptor blockers in cardiovascular disease has demonstrated an imbalance between patients that significantly benefit from these therapeutic agents and those that remain at risk for heart disease progression. Looking to find an explanation, detailed investigation on the RAS has unveiled a previously unrecognized complexity of substrates and enzymes in tissues ultimately associated with the production of Ang II that may explain the shortcomings of ACE inhibition and angiotensin receptor blockade. Discovery of the Ang-(1-12)/chymase axis in human hearts, capable of producing Ang II independently from the circulatory RAS, has led to the notion that a tissue-delimited RAS signaling in an intracrine fashion may account for the deleterious effects of Ang II in the heart, contributing to the transition from maladaptive cardiac remodeling to heart failure. Targeting intracellular RAS signaling may improve current therapies aimed at reducing the burden of heart failure.

We propose that advances are likely to depend on the development of better classification of the heterogeneity of PTSD using a staging approach of disease. A primary rationale for staging is to highlight the probability that distinct therapeutic approaches need to be utilised according to the degree of biological progression of the disorder. Prospective studies, particularly of military populations, provide substantial evidence about the emerging biological abnormalities that precede the full-blown disorder. These need to be targeted with tailored interventions to prevent disease progression. Equally, the neurobiology of chronic unremitting PTSD needs to be differentiated from the acute disorder which emerges across a spectrum of severity, and this range of presentations correspondingly needs to be addressed with differing therapeutic strategies. The staging approach also needs to take account of the range of somatic pathological outcomes that are being identified as a consequence of traumatic stress exposure. PTSD should be conceptualised as a systemic disorder underpinned a range of biological dysregulation, including metabolic and altered immune function, reflected in the increased rates of cardiovascular and autoimmune disease. The effectiveness of novel treatments needs to be judged across their effectiveness in addressing the spectrum of trauma-related pathology.

TI Combined effect of aerobic interval training and selenium nanoparticles on expression of IL-15 and IL-10/TNF-a ratio in skeletal muscle of 4T1 breast cancer mice with cachexia SO CYTOKINE LA English DT Article DE 4T1 breast cancer; Cachexia; Interleukin-15; Inflammation; Aerobic interval training ID TUMOR-BEARING RATS; RESISTANCE EXERCISE; ANTIOXIDANT SUPPLEMENTATION; MOLECULAR-MECHANISMS; PHYSICAL-ACTIVITY; OXIDATIVE STRESS; ADIPOSE-TISSUE; CELL-GROWTH; TNF-ALPHA; INTERLEUKIN-15 AB Cancer cachexia is characterized by inflammation, loss of skeletal muscle and adipose tissue mass, and functional impairment. Oxidative stress and inflammation are believed to regulate pathways controlling skeletal muscle wasting. The aim of this study was to determine the effects of aerobic interval training and the purported antioxidant treatment, selenium nanoparticle supplementation, on expression of IL-15 and inflammatory cytokines in 4T1 breast cancer-bearing mice with cachexia. Selenium nanopar-ticle supplementation accelerated cachexia symptoms in tumor-bearing mice, while exercise training prevented muscle wasting in tumor-bearing mice. Also, aerobic interval training enhanced the anti-inflammatory indices IL-10/TNF-alpha ratio and IL-15 expression in skeletal muscle in tumor-bearing mice. However, combining exercise training and antioxidant supplementation prevented cachexia and muscle wasting and additionally decreased tumor volume in 4T1 breast cancer mice. These finding suggested that combining exercise training and antioxidant supplementation could be a strategy for managing tumor volume and preventing cachexia in breast cancer. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd.

TI Serum biomarkers of inflammation and muscle strength among women with systemic lupus erythematosus SO CYTOKINE LA English DT Article DE Systemic lupus erythematosus; Inflammation; Cytokines; Outcomes research ID ACTIVITY QUESTIONNAIRE; PHYSICAL FUNCTION; VALIDITY; DISEASE AB Objectives: Muscle strength is an important determinant of physical function in women with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Serum biomarkers of inflammation, including interleukin-6 (IL-6) and C Reactive Protein (CRP), are associated with differences in muscle strength among individuals without rheumatologic disease. We examined whether serum levels of IL-6 and CRP are associated with upper and lower extremity muscle strength among adult women with SLE. Methods: One hundred thirty-six women with SLE participated in this cross-sectional study. High- sensitivity CRP was analyzed by nephelometry. IL-6 serum levels were analyzed by high sensitivity enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Upper and lower extremity muscle strength were assessed by grip strength and peak torque of knee extension and flexion, respectively. Regression analyses modeled asso-ciations of CRP and IL-6 with upper and lower extremity muscle strength controlling for age, SLE dura-tion, physical activity, prednisone use, BMI, plaquenil use, and pain. Results: Higher serum levels of IL-6 and CRP were associated with significantly weaker upper and lower extremity muscle strength even when controlling for covariates. Conclusions: Increased serum IL-6 and CRP are associated with clinically significant differences in upper and lower extremity muscle strength and may be useful in identifying those at risk for weakness and decreased physical function.

Nevertheless, this role is one for which agencies lack training and resources, which leaves many homebound at heightened risk. This study examined the utility of an evidence-based Disaster Preparedness Toolkit in Veterans Health Administration (VHA) Home-Based Primary Care (HBPC) programs. Methods: We conducted an online survey of all VHA HBPC program managers (N = 77/146; 53% response rate). Results: Respondents with fewer years with the HBPC program rated the toolkit as being more helpful (P<0.05). Of those who implemented their program's disaster protocol most frequently, two-thirds strongly agreed that the toolkit was relevant. Conversely, of those who implemented their disaster protocols very infrequently or never, 23% strongly agreed that the topics covered in the toolkit were relevant to their work (P<0.05). Conclusion: This toolkit helps support programs as they fulfill their preparedness requirements, especially practitioners who are new to their position in HBPC. Programs that implement disaster protocols infrequently may require additional efforts to increase understanding of the toolkit's utility. Engaging all members of the team with their diverse clinical expertise could strengthen a patient's personal preparedness plan.

TI Mixed-Methods Analysis of Factors Impacting Use of a Postoperative mHealth App SO JMIR MHEALTH AND UHEALTH LA English DT Article DE mHealth; colorectal surgery; smartphone apps ID PROMOTE PHYSICAL-ACTIVITY; COLORECTAL SURGERY; HOSPITAL READMISSION; ENHANCED RECOVERY; MOBILE APPS; PROGRAM; COMPLICATIONS; INTERVENTIONS; QUALITY; PATIENT AB Background: Limited communication and care coordination following discharge from hospitals may contribute to surgical complications. Smartphone apps offer a novel mechanism for communication and care coordination. However, factors which may affect patient app use in a postoperative, at-home setting are poorly understood. Objective: The objectives of this study were to (1) gauge interest in smartphone app use among patients after colorectal surgery and (2) better understand factors affecting patient app use in a postoperative, at-home setting. Methods: A prospective feasibility study was performed at a hospital that principally serves low socioeconomic status patients. After colorectal surgery, patients were enrolled and given a smartphone app, which uses previously validated content to provide symptom-based recommendations. Patients were instructed to use the app daily for 14 days after discharge. Demographics and usability data were collected at enrollment. Usability was measured with the System Usability Scale (SUS). At follow-up, the SUS was repeated and patients underwent a structured interview covering ease of use, willingness to use, and utility of use. Two members of the research team independently reviewed the field notes from follow-up interviews and extracted the most consistent themes. Chart and app log reviews identified clinical endpoints. Results: We screened 115 patients, enrolled 20 patients (17.4%), and completed follow-up interviews with 17 patients (85%). Reasons for nonenrollment included: failure to meet inclusion criteria (47/115, 40.9%), declined to participate (26/115, 22.6%), and other reasons (22/115, 19.1%). There was no difference in patient ratings between usability at first-use and after extended use, with SUS scores greater than the 95th percentile at both time points. Despite high usability ratings, 6/20 (30%) of patients never used the app at home after hospital discharge and 2/20 (10%) only used the app once. Interviews revealed three themes related to app use: (1) patient-related barriers could prevent use even though the app had high usability scores; (2) patients viewed the app as a second opinion, rather than a primary source of information; and (3) many patients viewed the app as an external burden. Conclusions: Use patterns in this study, and response rates after prompts to contact the operative team, suggest that apps need to be highly engaging to be adopted by patients. The growing penetration of smartphones and the proliferation of app-based interventions are unlikely to improve care coordination and communication, unless apps address the barriers and patient perceptions identified in this study. This study shows that high usability alone is not sufficient to motivate patients to use smartphone apps in the postoperative period.

Rapid advances in mobile phone technology indicate a clear need for research using mobile health (mHealth) methods such as ecological momentary assessment (EMA) to serve as a viable counterpart to retrospective evaluation methods by using real-time data collection to assess sexting and substance use among this population. Objective: The objective of this pilot study was to (1) describe the EMA study design and protocol, (2) characterize the study population, and (3) assess the feasibility of a random prompt text message-based thrice-daily EMA over 14 days, as a means of prospectively studying sexting, marijuana, and alcohol use among a sample of young adult African American gay and bisexual men ages 21 to 25. Methods: Participants were recruited through flyers and snowball sampling during spring and summer 2015 at a community-based HIV/AIDS prevention, care, and support organization in Washington, DC. Eligible participants were enrolled in a one-time in-person study visit that consisted of informed written consent to participate in the study, a self-administered survey, a semi-structured interview, and enrollment and training in EMA data collection. Commencing the day after the study visit, a random prompt survey was texted to participants on their personal mobile phones 3 times a day over a 14-day data collection period assessing mood, texts sent, texts received, sexts sent, sexts received, marijuana want, marijuana use, and alcohol use. Results: EMA feasibility was tested with 25 self-identified African American gay (n=16) and bisexual (n=9) men (mean age of 23.48 years, SD 1.5). Each random prompt survey had 8 questions with responses including yes/no and Likert scale options. There were 104 total days of EMA observation, and the retention rate was 72% (18 out of 25 participants). Participants responded to the random prompt surveys with a 57.3% compliance rate providing a total of 544 completed surveys out of 949 surveys. The overall mean response time to complete a survey was 6.1 minutes. There were significant positive associations between EMA texts sent and received questions (rho 0.84, P <.001) as well as sexts sent and received queries (rho 0.72, P <.001). Conclusions: The use of an EMA protocol has the potential to be a very useful research tool for understanding episodic behaviors such as sexting and substance use in this relatively understudied and underserved population, and has implications for practice. Additional research is needed on how to maximize survey compliance.

Our previous in vitro study showed that activation of Wnt/beta-catenin pathway can overcome radiation-induced DNA damage and apoptosis of osteoblastic cells. Neutralization of circulating sclerostin with a monoclonal antibody (Scl-Ab) is an innovative approach for treating osteoporosis by enhancing Wnt/beta-catenin signaling in bone. Together with the fact that focal radiation increases sclerostin amount in bone, we sought to determine whether weekly treatment with Scl-Ab would prevent focal radiotherapy-induced osteoporosis in mice. MicroCT and histomorphometric analyses demonstrated that Scl-Ab blocked trabecular bone structural deterioration after radiation by partially preserving osteoblast number and activity. Consistently, trabecular bone in sclerostin null mice was resistant to radiation via the same mechanism. Scl-Ab accelerated DNA repair in osteoblasts after radiation by reducing the number of gamma-H2AX foci, a DNA double-strand break marker, and increasing the amount of Ku70, a DNA repair protein, thus protecting osteoblasts from radiation-induced apoptosis. In osteocytes, apart from using similar DNA repair mechanism to rescue osteocyte apoptosis, Scl-Ab restored the osteocyte canaliculi structure that was otherwise damaged by radiation. Using a lineage tracing approach that labels all mesenchymal lineage cells in the endosteal bone marrow, we demonstrated that radiation damage to mesenchymal progenitors mainly involves shifting their fate to adipocytes and arresting their proliferation ability but not inducing apoptosis, which are different mechanisms from radiation damage to mature bone forming cells. Scl-Ab treatment partially blocked the lineage shift but had no effect on the loss of proliferation potential. Taken together, our studies provide proof-of-principle evidence for a novel use of Scl-Ab as a therapeutic treatment for radiation-induced osteoporosis and establish molecular and cellular mechanisms that support such treatment.

TI Sarcopenia among patients receiving hemodialysis: weighing the evidence SO JOURNAL OF CACHEXIA SARCOPENIA AND MUSCLE LA English DT Article DE Low muscle mass; Sarcopenia; Handgrip strength; Gait speed; Hemodialysis ID CLINICALLY RELEVANT WEAKNESS; SKELETAL-MUSCLE MASS; BIOIMPEDANCE SPECTROSCOPY; ALTERNATIVE DEFINITIONS; FUNCTIONAL IMPAIRMENT; PHYSICAL-DISABILITY; OLDER WOMEN; LEAN MASS; PREVALENCE; CUTPOINTS AB BackgroundThere is no consensus on how best to define low muscle mass in patients with end-stage renal disease. Use of muscle mass normalized to height-squared has been suggested by geriatric societies but may underestimate sarcopenia, particularly in the setting of excess adiposity. We compared four definitions of low muscle mass in a prevalent hemodialysis cohort. MethodsACTIVE/ADIPOSE enrolled prevalent patients receiving hemodialysis from the San Francisco and Atlanta areas from June 2009 to August 2011. Whole-body muscle mass was estimated using bioelectrical impedance spectroscopy, performed before a midweek dialysis session (n=645; age 56.714.5years, 41% women). We defined low muscle mass as muscle mass of 2SD or more below sex-specific bioelectrical impedance spectroscopy-derived means for young adults (18-49years) from National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey and indexed to height(2), body weight (percentage), body surface area (BSA) by the DuBois formula, or Quetelet's body mass index (BMI). We compared prevalence of low muscle mass among the four methods and assessed their correlation with strength and physical performance. ResultsThe prevalence of low muscle mass ranged from 8 to 32%. Muscle mass indexed to height(2) classified the smallest percentage of patients as having low muscle mass, particularly among women, whereas indexing by BSA classified the largest percentage. Low muscle mass/height(2) was present almost exclusively among normal or underweight patients, whereas indexing to body weight and BMI classified more overweight and obese patients as having low muscle mass. Handgrip strength was lower among those with low muscle mass by all methods except height(2). Handgrip strength was directly and modestly correlated with muscle mass normalized by percentage of body weight, BSA, and BMI (=0.43, 0.56, and, 0.64, respectively) and less so with muscle/height(2) (=0.31, P<0.001). The difference in grip strength among patients with low vs. normal muscle mass was largest according to muscle/BMI (-6.84kg, 95% CI -8.66 to -5.02, P<0.001). There were significant direct correlations of gait speed with muscle mass indexed to percentage of body weight, BSA, and BMI but not with muscle mass indexed to height(2). ConclusionsSkeletal muscle mass normalized to height(2) may underestimate the prevalence of low muscle mass, particularly among overweight and obese patients on hemodialysis. Valid detection of sarcopenia among obese patients receiving hemodialysis requires adjustment for body size.

TI Impaired Tissue Oxygenation in Metabolic Syndrome Requires Increased Microvascular Perfusion Heterogeneity SO JOURNAL OF CARDIOVASCULAR TRANSLATIONAL RESEARCH LA English DT Article DE Microcirculation; Oxygenation; Rodent models of obesity; Blood flow control; Simulation ID OBESE ZUCKER RATS; SKELETAL-MUSCLE; EXERCISE CAPACITY; BLOOD-FLOW; DYSFUNCTION; RESISTANCE; MORTALITY; MODELS; SYSTEM; MEN AB Metabolic syndrome (MS) in obese Zucker rats (OZR) is associated with impaired skeletal muscle performance and blunted hyperemia. Studies suggest that reduced O-2 diffusion capacity is required to explain compromised muscle performance and that heterogeneous microvascular perfusion distribution is critical. We modeled tissue oxygenation during muscle contraction in control and OZR skeletal muscle using physiologically realistic relationships. Using a network model of Krogh cylinders with increasing perfusion asymmetry and increased plasma skimming, we predict increased perfusion heterogeneity and decreased muscle oxygenation in OZR, with partial recovery following therapy. Notably, increasing O-2 delivery had less impact on VO2 than equivalent decreases in O-2 delivery, providing a mechanism for previous empirical work associating perfusion heterogeneity and impaired O-2 extraction. We demonstrate that increased skeletal muscle perfusion asymmetry is a defining characteristic of MS and must be considered to effectively model and understand blood-tissue O-2 exchange in this model of human disease.

Materials and methods: We included 1191 Hispanic adults aged 40-65 years, free of diabetes, enrolled in San Juan Overweight Adults Longitudinal Study. Pre-diabetes was defined as impaired fasting glucose (IFG), impaired glucose tolerance (IGT), or impaired glycated haemoglobin. Impaired one-hour plasma glucose (1hPG) was defined as levels >155 mg/dl. Insulin resistance was defined using the study population-specific 75th percentile (HOMA-IR >= 3.13). High BOP was defined as percentage of teeth with bleeding >= 30%. Periodontitis was defined according to the CDC/AAP definition. Results: After multivariable adjustment for age, gender, education, smoking status, alcohol consumption, physical activity, obesity, HDL-C, and plaque index, pre-diabetes with and without 1hPG, IFG, impaired 1hPG, IGT, and HOMA-IR were significantly associated with high BOP; pre-diabetes, IFG, and impaired 1hPG were significantly associated with severe periodontitis. Most of these associations remained significant when the analyses were restricted to non-smokers. Conclusions: This study suggests associations between pre-diabetes and insulin resistance with BOP and periodontitis. Given the high prevalence of impaired glucose metabolism and periodontitis, the assessment of the temporal sequence of these associations is of utmost importance.

Previous research demonstrated self-reported mental health care utilization in the prior year varies as a function of PTSD symptom severity, and the interaction of PTSD symptom severity and romantic relationship satisfaction (Meis et al., 2010). We extended these findings by objectively measuring the degree of utilization over a 1-year period (i. e., number of sessions attended) in a sample of 130 Iraq and Afghanistan veterans who presented to primary care/deployment health and completed an initial mental health evaluation. Results indicated main and interactive effects of PTSD symptom severity and relationship satisfaction, such that greater PTSD symptom severity was associated with greater utilization at average to high relationship satisfaction (p < .05), but not low relationship satisfaction. Implications for future research and couple/family based interventions for veterans with PTSD are discussed.

Minority students (N = 686) attending a southeastern university were surveyed in the fall of 2011. Psychometric analysis of the GBMMS was performed. A three-factor solution fit the data after the omission of two problematic items. This revised version of the GBMMS exhibited sufficient configural, metric, and scalar invariance. Convergence of the GBMMS with conceptually related measures provided further evidence of validity; however, there was variation across ethnoracial identity. The GBMMS has viable psychometric properties across gender and ethnoracial identity in Black and Latino populations.

TI S1P in HDL promotes interaction between SR-BI and S1PR1 and activates S1PR1-mediated biological functions: calcium flux and S1PR1 internalization SO JOURNAL OF LIPID RESEARCH LA English DT Article DE high density lipoprotein; sphingosine 1-phosphate; protein-fragment complementation assay; scavenger receptor BI; S1P receptors ID HIGH-DENSITY-LIPOPROTEIN; RECEPTOR CLASS-B; APOLIPOPROTEIN-A-I; ENDOTHELIAL-CELL MIGRATION; NITRIC-OXIDE SYNTHASE; SCAVENGER RECEPTOR; SPHINGOSINE 1-PHOSPHATE; PLASMA-MEMBRANE; MASS-SPECTROMETRY; PROTEIN-KINASE AB HDL normally transports about 50-70% of plasma sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P), and the S1P in HDL reportedly mediates several HDL-associated biological effects and signaling pathways. The HDL receptor, SR-BI, as well as the cell surface receptors for S1P (S1PRs) may be involved partially and/or completely in these HDL-induced processes. Here we investigate the nature of the HDL-stimulated interaction between the HDL receptor, SR-BI, and S1PR1 using a protein-fragment complementation assay and confocal microscopy. In both primary rat aortic vascular smooth muscle cells and HEK293 cells, the S1P content in HDL particles increased intracellular calcium concentration, which was mediated by S1PR1. Mechanistic studies performed in HEK293 cells showed that incubation of cells with HDL led to an increase in the physical interaction between the SR-BI and S1PR1 receptors that mainly occurred on the plasma membrane. Model recombinant HDL (rHDL) particles formed in vitro with S1P incorporated into the particle initiated the internalization of S1PR1, whereas rHDL without supplemented S1P did not, suggesting that S1P transported in HDL can selectively activate S1PR1. In conclusion, these data suggest that S1P in HDL stimulates the transient interaction between SR-BI and S1PRs that can activate S1PRs and induce an elevation in intracellular calcium concentration.

TI Stratification of Fat-Free Mass Index Percentiles for Body Composition Based on National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey III Bioelectric Impedance Data SO JOURNAL OF PARENTERAL AND ENTERAL NUTRITION LA English DT Article DE nutrition assessment; nutrition; outcomes research; quality; nutrition support practice; adult; life cycle ID LENGTH-OF-STAY; HOSPITAL ADMISSION; POSTOPERATIVE COMPLICATIONS; NHANES-III; MALNUTRITION; OUTCOMES; CANCER; RISK; SURGERY; IMPACT AB Background: Loss of protein mass and lower fat-free mass index (FFMI) are associated with longer length of stay, postsurgical complications, and other poor outcomes in hospitalized patients. Normative data for FFMI of U.S. populations do not exist. This work aims to create a stratified FFMI percentile table for the U.S. population using the large bioelectric impedance analysis data obtained from National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys (NHANES). Methods: Fat-free mass (FFM) was calculated from the NHANES III bioelectric impedance analysis and anthropometric data for males and females ages 12 to >90 years for 3 race/ethnicities (non-Hispanic white, non-Hispanic black, and Mexican American). FFM was normalized by subject height to create an FFMI distribution table for the U.S. population. Selected percentiles were obtained by age, sex, and race/ethnicity. Data were collapsed by race/ethnicity before and after removing obese and underweight participants to create an FFMI decile table for males and females 12 years and older for the healthy-weight U.S. population. Results: FFMI increased during adolescent growth but stabilized in the early 20s. The FFMI deciles were similar by race/ethnicity, with age group remaining relatively stable between ages 25 and 80 years. The FFMI deciles for males and females were significantly different. Conclusions: After eliminating the obese and extremely thin, FFMI percentiles remain stable during adult years allowing creation of age- and race/ethnicity-independent decile tables for males and females. These tables allow stratification of individuals for nutrition intervention trials to depict changing nutrition status during medical, surgical, and nutrition interventions.

In this study, the extent to which ITDs and ILDs contribute to SRM and the relationships with aging and hearing loss were examined. SRM was greatest when stimuli were presented with consistent ITD and ILD, relative to ITD or ILD alone, all of which produced greater SRM than when ITD and ILD cues were in conflict with each other. This pattern was independent of age and hearing loss.

Patrick TI Validation of a Computer-Administered Version of the Digits-in-Noise Test for Hearing Screening in the United States SO JOURNAL OF THE AMERICAN ACADEMY OF AUDIOLOGY LA English DT Article DE assessment; computer -administered; digits-in-noise; hearing screening; hearing test ID QUALITY-OF-LIFE; OLDER-ADULTS; COGNITIVE DYSFUNCTION; HANDICAP INVENTORY; TELEPHONE; IMPAIRMENT; MILD; INTELLIGIBILITY; DEMENTIA; PEOPLE AB Background: The sooner people receive treatment for hearing loss (HL), the quicker they are able to recognize speech and to master hearing aid technology. Unfortunately, a majority of people with HL wait until their impairments have progressed from moderate to severe levels before seeking auditory rehabilitation. To increase the number of individuals with HL who pursue and receive auditory rehabilitation, it is necessary to improve methods for identifying and informing these people via widely accessible hearing screening procedures. Screening for HL is the first in a chain of events that must take place to increase the number of patients who enter the hearing health-care system. New methods for hearing screening should be readily accessible through a common medium (e.g., telephone or computer) and should be relatively easy and quick for people to self-administer. Purpose: The purpose of this study was to assess a digits-in-noise (DIN) hearing screening test that was delivered via personal computer. Research Design: Participants completed the Hearing Handicap Inventory for Adults (HHIA) questionnaire, audiometric testing in a sound booth, and computerized DIN testing. During the DIN test, sequences of three spoken digits were presented in noise via headphones at varying signal-to-noise ratios (SNRs). Participants entered each three-digit sequence they heard using an on-screen keypad. Study Sample: Forty adults (16 females, 24 males) participated in the study, of whom 20 had normal hearing and 20 had HL (pure-tone average [PTA] thresholds for 0.5, 1, 2, and 4 kHz >25 dB HL). Data Collection and Analysis: DIN SNR and PTA data were analyzed and compared for each ear tested. Receiver operating characteristic curves based on these data were plotted. A measure of overall accuracy of a screening test is the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC). This measures the average true positive rate across false positives at varying DIN SNR cutoffs. Larger values of the AUC indicate, on average, more accurate screening tests. HHIA responses were analyzed and compared to PTA and DIN SNR results using Pearson correlation statistics. Results: HHIA scores were positively correlated with audiometric PTA and DIN SNR results (p < 0.001 for all correlations). For an HL criterion of one or more frequencies from 0.25 to 8 kHz >25 dB HL, the AUC for the DIN test was 0.95. When a criterion of hearling level was set at one or more frequencies from 0.25 to 8 kHz >20 dB HL, the AUC for the DIN test was 0.96. Conclusions: The computer version of the DIN test demonstrated excellent sensitivity and specificity for our sample of 40 participants. AUC results (>= 0.95) suggest that this DIN test administered via computer should be very useful for adult hearing screening. C1 [Folmer, Robert L.; Vachhani, Jay; McMillan, Garnett P.; Feeney, M.

TI Reliability of the American College of Surgeons Commission on Cancer's Quality of Care Measures for Hospital and Surgeon Profiling SO JOURNAL OF THE AMERICAN COLLEGE OF SURGEONS LA English DT Article ID LYMPH-NODES; MIX ADJUSTMENT; COLON-CANCER; LUNG-CANCER; DATA-BASE; PATIENT; RETRIEVAL; RESECTION; NUMBER; RISK AB BACKGROUND: Efforts to improve healthcare quality involve profiling hospitals and providers. Whether cancer-specific measures can be used reliably for profiling purposes has not been reported. STUDY DESIGN: Hospitals and surgeons were profiled with 3 measures assessing the adequacy of lymphadenectomy for colon (ie at least 12 regional lymph nodes [12RLN] are removed and pathologically examined for resected colon cancer), gastric (ie at least 15 regional lymph nodes [G15RLN] are removed and pathologically examined for resected gastric cancer), and non-small cell lung (ie at least 10 regional lymph nodes [10RLN] are removed and pathologically examined for American Joint Committee on Cancer stage IA, IB, IIA, and IIB resected non-small cell lung cancer) cancers using hierarchical models. National Cancer Data Base cases spanning 2010 to 2013 were included if they met measure eligibility. Reliability estimates for hospital and surgeon performance across cumulative years of data (2013, 2012 to 2013, 2011 to 2013, and 2010 to 2013) were calculated with and without risk adjustment. Surgeon caseload minimums were projected to achieve reliabilities of 0.40 and 0.70. RESULTS: Reliability estimates tended to increase with longer periods of data collection but at different rates, depending on measure, level of aggregation, and performance outlier status. Profiling hospitals using 12RLN with 2 years of data yielded a median reliability of 0.72 (interquartile range [IQR] 0.55 to 0.83); however, 4 years of data yielded a median reliability of only 0.31 (IQR 0.14 to 0.54) for surgeons. The G15RLN performance was poor overall; 10RLN had high reliability at both hospital (0.74; IQR 0.50 to 0.86) and surgeon (0.61; IQR 0.34 to 0.80) levels using 1 year of data, but the literature questions this measure's validity. Few surgeons could achieve appropriate levels of reliability regardless of increased data collection duration. CONCLUSIONS: Profiling hospitals based on measures such as these can achieve acceptable reliability in reasonable timeframes, but does not always. Either lower levels of reliability should be accepted to profile surgeons with these measures or longer timeframes should be used. (J Am Coll Surg 2017; 224: 180e190.

At this stage, intervention to reverse functional losses is often too late. To be more effective, geriatric medicine must evolve to intervene at an earlier stage of the disability process. Could nursing homes (NHs) transform from settings in which many residents dwell to settings in which the NH residents and those living in neighboring communities benefit from staff expertise to enhance quality of life and maintain or slow functional decline? A task force of clinical researchers met in Toulouse on December 2, 2015, to address some of these challenges: how to prevent or slow functional decline and disabilities for NH residents and how NHs may promote the prevention of functional decline in community-dwelling frail elderly. The present article reports the main results of the Task Force discussions to generate a new paradigm. (C) 2016 AMDA - The Society for Post-Acute and Long-Term Care Medicine.

The aims of this study were to use combined data to report the prevalence of olfactory dysfunction and to calculate weighted averages of olfactory test scores in CRS patients. Data Sources: A search was conducted in PubMed and Scopus, following the methods of Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis guidelines. Review Methods: Studies reporting the prevalence of olfactory dysfunction using objective measures or olfactory test scores using validated scales were included. Results: A total of 47 articles were included in a systematic review and 35 in the pooled data analysis. The prevalence of olfactory dysfunction in chronic rhinosinusitis was found to be 30.0% using the Brief Smell Identification Test, 67.0% using the 40-item Smell Identification Test, and 78.2% using the total Sniffin' Sticks score. Weighted averages 6 standard deviation of olfactory test scores were 25.96 +/- 7.11 using the 40-item Smell Identification Test, 8.60 +/- 2.81 using the Brief Smell Identification Test, 21.96 +/- 8.88 using total Sniffin' Sticks score, 5.65 +/- 1.51 using Sniffin' Sticks-Threshold, 9.21 +/- 4.63 using Sniffin' Sticks-Discrimination, 9.47 +/- 3.92 using Sniffin' Sticks-Identification, and 8.90 +/- 5.14 using the Questionnaire for Olfactory Disorders-Negative Statements. Conclusions: In CRS populations, a significant percentage of patients experience olfactory dysfunction, and mean olfactory scores are within the dysosmic range.

A systematic review of autograft polarity on functional outcomes following peripheral nerve repair surgery SO MICROSURGERY LA English DT Review ID REGENERATING MOTOR AXONS; REINNERVATION; GUIDANCE; MUSCLES; GRAFTS AB Background: The literature describing the best clinical practice for proximal- distal autograft orientation, otherwise known as nerve graft polarity, is inconsistent. With existing disparities in the peripheral nerve literature, the clinical question remains whether reversing nerve autograft polarity bears an advantage for nerve regeneration. Methods: A comprehensive review of the literature using Embase and PubMed databases (1940June 2015) was performed to retrieve all original articles on the effects of nerve autograft polarity on nerve regeneration and functional recovery following primary repair of peripheral nerve defects. Results: The initial database search yielded 318 titles. Duplicate exclusion, title review and full text review yielded six articles which directly compared nerve autograft polarity. Histological, morphometric, electrophysiological, and behavioral outcomes were reviewed. All retained articles were animal studies, of which none demonstrated significant differences in outcomes between the normal and reversed polarity groups. A reversed graft may ensure that regenerating nerve fibers are not lost at branching points, however this may not translate into improved function. Conclusion: There is insufficient data to suggest that nerve autograft polarity has an impact on nerve regeneration and functional outcomes. C1 [Roberts, S. E.; Burrell, J. C.; Zager, E.

Methods: Clinic and researcher-measured weights from a published trial ( BE WELL) were compared using Lin's concordance correlation coefficient, Bland and Altman's limits of agreement, and polynomial regression model. Changes in clinic and researcher-measured weights in BE WELL and another trial, ELITE, were analyzed using growth curve modeling. Results: Among BE WELL ( n = 330) and E-LITE ( n = 241) participants, 96% and 90% had clinic weights ( mean [ SD] of 5.8 [ 6.1] and 3.7 [ 3.9] records) over 12 and 15 months of follow-up, respectively. The concordance correlation coefficient was 0.99, and limits of agreement plots showed no pattern between or within treatment groups, suggesting overall good agreement between researcher-measured and nearest-in-time clinic weights up to 3 months. The 95% confidence intervals for predicted percent differences fell within 63% for clinic weights within 3 months of the researcher-measured weights. Furthermore, the growth curve slopes for clinic and researcher-measured weights by treatment group did not differ significantly, suggesting similar inferences about treatment effects over time, in both trials. Conclusions: Compared with researcher-measured weights, close-in-time clinic weights showed high agreement and inference validity. Clinic weights could be a valid pragmatic outcome measure in weight loss studies. C1 [Xiao, Lan; Lv, Nan; Rosas, Lisa G.; Ma, Jun] Palo Alto Med Fdn, Res Inst, Palo Alto, CA 94301 USA.

Gastric emptying, which determines small intestinal exposure of nutrients, modulates postprandial glycemia. The aim of this study was to determine whether the insulin secretory response and the disposition index (DI) related to gastric emptying in subjects with normal glucose tolerance. Thirty-nine subjects consumed a 350 mL drink containing 75 g glucose labeled with Tc-99m-sulfur colloid. Gastric emptying (by scintigraphy), blood glucose (G) and plasma insulin (I) were measured between t = 0-120 min. The rate of gastric emptying was derived from the time taken for 50% emptying (T-50) and expressed as kcal/min. The early insulin secretory response was estimated by the ratio of the change in insulin (Delta I0-30) to that of glucose at 30 min (Delta G(0-30)) represented as Delta I0-30/Delta G(0-30). Insulin sensitivity was estimated as 1/fasting insulin and the DI was then calculated as Delta I0-30/Delta G(0-30) x 1/fasting insulin. There was a direct relationship between Delta G(0-30) and gastric emptying (r = 0.47, P = 0.003). While there was no association of either Delta I0-30 (r = -0.16, P = 0.34) or fasting insulin (r = 0.21, P = 0.20), there were inverse relationships between the early insulin secretory response (r = -0.45, P = 0.004) and the DI (r = -0.33, P = 0.041), with gastric emptying. We conclude that gastric emptying is associated with both insulin secretion and the disposition index in subjects with normal glucose tolerance, such that when gastric emptying is relatively more rapid, both the early insulin secretory response and the disposition index are less. These findings should be interpreted as "hypothesis generating" and provide the rationale for longitudinal studies to examine the impact of baseline rate of gastric emptying on the prospective risk of type 2 diabetes.

This study reports on efforts by the US Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), Veterans Health Administration, Office of Emergency Management's (OEM) Comprehensive Emergency Management Program (CEMP) to assess the readiness of VA Medical Centers (VAMCs) across the nation. Hypothesis/Problem: This study conducts descriptive analyses of preparedness assessments of VAMCs and examines change in hospital readiness over time. Methods: To assess change, quantitative analyses of data from two phases of preparedness assessments (Phase I: 2008-2010; Phase II: 2011-2013) at 137 VAMCs were conducted using 61 unique capabilities assessed during the two phases. The initial five-point Likert-like scale used to rate each capability was collapsed into a dichotomous variable: "not-developed = 0" versus "developed = 1." To describe changes in preparedness over time, four new categories were created from the Phase I and Phase II dichotomous variables: (1) rated developed in both phases; (2) rated not-developed in Phase I but rated developed in Phase II; (3) rated not-developed in both phases; and (4) rated developed in Phase I but rated not-developed in Phase II. Results: From a total of 61 unique emergency preparedness capabilities, 33 items achieved the desired outcome - they were rated either "developed in both phases" or "became developed" in Phase II for at least 80% of VAMCs. For 14 items, 70%-80% of VAMCs achieved the desired outcome. The remaining 14 items were identified as "low-performing" capabilities, defined as less than 70% of VAMCs achieved the desired outcome. Conclusion: Measuring emergency management capabilities is a necessary first step to improving those capabilities. Furthermore, assessing hospital readiness over time and creating robust hospital readiness assessment tools can help hospitals make informed decisions regarding allocation of resources to ensure patient safety, provide timely access to high-quality patient care, and identify best practices in emergency management during and after disasters. Moreover, with some minor modifications, this comprehensive, all-hazardsbased, hospital preparedness assessment tool could be adapted for use beyond the VA.

This study describes the initial design and analysis of the Mental Health Management System (MHMS), a performance data and quality improvement tool used by the Veterans Health Administration (VHA) to increase the value of its mental health care. The MHMS evaluates access to and quality of mental health care, organizational structure and efficiency, implementation of innovative treatment options, and, in collaboration with management, resource needs for delivering care. Performance on 31 measures was calculated for all U.S. VHA facilities (N = 139). Pearson correlations revealed that better access to care was significantly associated with fewer mental health provider staffing vacancies (r = -.24) and higher staff-topatient ratios for psychiatrists (r =.19) and other outpatient mental health providers (r =.27). Higher staff-to-patient ratios were significantly associated with higher performance on a number of patient and provider satisfaction measures (range of r =.18-.51) and continuity of care measures (range of r =.26-.43). Relationships observed between organizational and clinical performance measures suggest that the MHMS is a robust informatics and quality improvement tool that can serve as a model for health systems planning to adopt a value perspective. Future research should expand the MHMS framework to measure patient and health systems costs and psychosocial outcomes, as well as evaluate whether quality improvement solutions implemented as a result of using organizational information leads to higher-value mental health care.

TI Community-Based Implementation of Trauma-Focused Interventions for Youth: Economic Impact of the Learning Collaborative Model SO PSYCHOLOGICAL SERVICES LA English DT Article DE cost-effectiveness; implementation; trauma-focused cognitive-behavioral therapy; training; community services ID COST-EFFECTIVENESS; CHILD MALTREATMENT; ADOLESCENTS; DISORDERS; DISSEMINATION; CLINICIAN AB This study investigated the economics of the learning collaborative (LC) model in the implementation of Trauma-Focused Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), an evidence-based intervention for traumatic stress in youth. We evaluated the cost-effectiveness of the LC model based on data from 13 LCs completed in the southeastern United States. Specifically, we calculated cost-effectiveness ratios (CERs) for 2 key service outcomes: (a) clinician TF-CBT competence, based on pre-and post-LC self-ratings (n = 574); and (b) trauma-related mental health symptoms (i.e.,traumatic stress and depression), selfand caregiver-reported, for youth who received TF-CBT (n = 1,410). CERs represented the cost of achieving 1 standard unit of change on a measure (i.e., d = 1.0). The results indicated that (a) costs of $18,679 per clinician were associated with each unit increase in TF-CBT competency and (b) costs from $5,318 to $6,548 per youth were associated with each unit decrease in mental health symptoms. Thus, although the impact of LC participation on clinician competence did not produce a favorable CER, subsequent reductions in youth psychopathology demonstrated high cost-effectiveness. Clinicians and administrators in community provider agencies should consider these findings in their decisions about implementation of evidence-based interventions for youth with traumatic stress disorders.

The sample predominately included agnostic, atheist, Buddhist, Christian, Jewish, and spiritual nonreligious participants. Multigroup analyses within structural equation models revealed that spirituality held a large relationship strength with mental health for both religious and secular forms of spirituality, even with multiple configurations determining the constituents of the secular group. An exploratory analysis demonstrated that when spirituality, demographic factors, social support, and spiritual coping usage were all examined as predictors of mental health, religious and secular forms of spirituality were the only variables that maintained a large predictive strength. The results indicated that living in accordance with one's spiritual values, even when defined in a variety of ways, is characteristic of greater mental health.

TI Patient characteristics associated with poor inhaler technique among a cohort of patients with COPD SO RESPIRATORY MEDICINE LA English DT Article DE Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD); Inhaled therapy; Technique; Adherence ID OBSTRUCTIVE PULMONARY-DISEASE; METERED-DOSE INHALER; INCORRECT INHALATION TECHNIQUE; HEALTH LITERACY; ASTHMA; MANAGEMENT; ADHERENCE; EDUCATION AB Background: Inhaled therapies are the cornerstone of pharmacologic management for COPD. Each device requires a unique series of steps to be most effective, making appropriate instruction in inhaler technique a key part of the management of COPD. Objectives: Examine characteristics of patients and devices associated with poor technique among patients with COPD. Methods: Cross-sectional study of subjects with COPD using at least one of: metered dose inhaler, Advair Diskus, Spiriva Handihaler, identified from the COPD Outcomes-based Network for Clinical Effectiveness and Research Translation (CONCERT) registry. Technique was assessed face-to-face using manufacturer provided dummy inhalers, with standardized checklists for each device. We used logistic regression to model associations with poor inhaler technique, defined as an error in >= 20% of the steps, as a function of patient characteristics, with educational attainment the primary predictor. Results: 688 individuals meet eligibility criteria, 65.5% had poor technique for at least one device. In adjusted analyses, Black race was associated with poor technique (OR 3.25, 95%CI 1.86-5.67) while greater than high school education was associated with decreased odds of poor technique (OR 0.35, 95% CI 0.17-0.70 for trade school/some college, OR 0.25, 95%Cl 0.11-0.61 for college or more, p <= 0.001 for test of linear trend). The percentage of errors varied between devices, with subjects making proportionally the most errors for MDIs. Conclusions: Poor inhaler technique is common among individuals with COPD, varies between devices, and is associated with race and educational attainment. Tailored educational interventions to teach inhaler technique should be part of the process of initiating and monitoring inhaled therapies. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

The role of phonology in language processing, as well as the impact of phonological impairment on communication is initially discussed. Then, traditional phonologically based treatment approaches, including phonological, orthographic, indirect, guided, and mixed cueing methods, are described. Collectively, these cueing treatment approaches aim to facilitate word retrieval by stimulating residual phonological abilities. An alternative treatment approach, phonomotor treatment, is also examined. Phonomotor treatment aims to rebuild sublexical, phonological sequence knowledge and phonological awareness as a means to strengthen lexical processing and whole-word naming. This treatment is supported by a parallel-distributed processing model of phonology and therefore promotes multimodal training of individual phonemes and phoneme sequences in an effort to enhance the neural connectivity supporting underlying phonological processing mechanisms. The article concludes with suggestions for clinical application and implementation. C1 [Madden, Elizabeth Brookshire] Florida State Univ, Sch Commun Sci & Disorders, Tallahassee, FL 32306 USA.

Pilot tests a post-hospital monitoring and enhanced support program for depression. 48 patients at a Veterans Affairs Medical Center discharged following a depression-related inpatient stay received weekly visits or phone calls for 6 months from their choice of either a family member/friend (n = 19) or a certified peer support specialist (n = 29). Participants also completed weekly automated telephone monitoring calls assessing depressive symptoms and antidepressant medication adherence. Over 90% of participants were more satisfied with their care due to the service. The mean change from baseline to 6 months in depression symptoms was -7.9 (p < 0.05) according to the Patient Health Questionnaire and -11.2 (p < 0.05) according to the Beck Depression Inventory-II for those supported by a family member/friend, whereas those supported by a peer specialist had mean changes of -3.5 (p < 0.05) and -1.7 (p > 0.10), respectively. Increased contact with a chosen support person coupled with automated telephone monitoring after psychiatric hospitalization is an acceptable service for patients with depression. Those who received the service, and particularly those supported by a family member/friend, experienced reductions in symptoms of depression.

In this study the predictive validity of an objective measure, the death/suicide Implicit Association Test (d/sIAT), was tested among psychiatrically hospitalized veterans. Following acute stabilization, 176 participants completed the d/sIAT and traditional suicide risk assessments. Participants had similar d/sIAT scores regardless of whether they had recently attempted suicide. However, d/sIAT scores significantly predicted suicide attempts during the 6-month follow-up above and beyond other known risk factors for suicidal behavior (OR=1.89; 95% CI: 1.15-3.12; based on 1SD increase). The d/sIAT may augment the accuracy of suicide risk assessment.

TI Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus in Foot Osteomyelitis SO SURGICAL INFECTIONS LA English DT Article DE diabetes; MRSA; MSSA; osteomyelitis; staphylococcal infections ID INFECTIONS; DIAGNOSIS; PATHOGENS; BONE AB Background: Conflicting studies exist regarding the impact of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) on increased time to wound healing, future need for surgical procedures, and likelihood of treatment failure in patients with diabetic foot osteomyelitis. The purpose of this study is to determine the overall significance of MRSA in predicting treatment failure in bone infections of the foot and to determine an appropriate pre-operative and empiric post-operative antibiotic regimen. Patients and Methods: Patients presenting with an initial episode of "probable" or "definite" foot osteomyelitis were included for review and analysis if the following criteria were met: (1) Osteomyelitis occurred in the foot (i.e., distal to the malleoli of the ankle); episodes occurring above the ankle were excluded. (2) Patients received either no antibiotics or only oral antibiotics for long-term treatment; episodes managed with long-term parenteral antibiotics were excluded. (3) The infection was managed initially with medical therapy or conservative surgical therapy; episodes managed with major (above-ankle) amputation as the initial treatment were excluded. The primary objective of this study was to assess whether episodes of foot osteomyelitis associated with MRSA resulted in treatment failure more frequently than not. Results: Of 178 episodes included in the study, 50 (28.1%) episodes had treatment failure. Median time-to-treatment failure was 60 days (range 7-598 days). In 28.1% (9/32 episodes) in which treatment failure occurred and 39.0% (41/105) episodes in which no treatment failure occurred, MRSA was present. The presence of MRSA was not significantly associated with treatment failure (p = 0.99). Conclusions: The presence of MRSA in bone culture and whether antibiotic use had anti-MRSA activity was not associated with increased treatment failure of diabetic foot osteomyelitis in our institution. Empiric antibiotic coverage of MRSA may not be necessary for many patients presenting with foot osteomyelitis.

However, the understanding about the metabolomic and autophagy changes in skeletal muscle and heart during aging is still limited. We thus examined markers for macroautophagy, chaperone-mediated autophagy (CMA), mitochondrial quality control, as well as cellular metabolites in skeletal and cardiac muscle from young (5 months old) and aged (27 months old) mice. We found decreased autophagic degradation of p62 and increased ubiquitinated proteins in both tissues from aged mice, suggesting a decline in macroautophagy during aging. In skeletal muscle from aged mice, there also was a decline in LC3B-I conjugation to phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) possibly due to decreased protein levels of ATG3 and ATG12-ATG5. The CMA markers, LAMP-2A and Hsc70, and mitochondrial turnover markers, Drp1, PINK1 and PGC1 alpha also were decreased. Metabolomics analysis showed impaired a-oxidation in heart of aged mice, whereas increased branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs) and ceramide levels were found in skeletal muscle of aged mice that in turn, may contribute to insulin resistance in muscle. Taken together, our studies showed similar declines in macroautophagy but distinct effects on CMA, mitochondrial turnover, and metabolic dysfunction in muscle vs. heart during aging.

TI An Evaluation of the Texas Functional Living Scale's Latent Structure and Subscales SO ARCHIVES OF CLINICAL NEUROPSYCHOLOGY LA English DT Article DE Everyday functioning; Test construction; Assessment AB Objective: Performance-based functional assessment is a critical component of neuropsychological practice. The Texas Functional Living Scale (TFLS) has promise given its brevity, nationally representative norms, and co-norming with Wechsler scales. However, its subscale structure has not been evaluated. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the TFLS in a mixed clinical sample (n = 197). Method: Reliability and convergent and discriminant validity coefficients were calculated with neurocognitive testing and collateral reports and factor analysis was performed. Results: The Money and Calculation subscale had the best psychometric properties of the subscales. The evidence did not support solitary interpretation of the Time subscale. A three-factor latent structure emerged representing memory and semantic retrieval, performance and visual scanning, and financial calculation. Conclusions: This study added psychometric support for interpretation of the TFLS total score and some of its subscales. Study limitations included sample characteristics (e.g., gender ratio) and low power for collateral report analyses. C1 [Gonzalez, David Andres; Soble, Jason R.; Marceaux, Janice C.; McCoy, Karin J.

TI Assessing Visuospatial Skills in Parkinson's: Comparison of Neuropsychological Assessment Battery Visual Discrimination to the Judgment of Line Orientation SO ARCHIVES OF CLINICAL NEUROPSYCHOLOGY LA English DT Article DE Parkinson's disease; Assessment ID MILD COGNITIVE IMPAIRMENT; SOCIETY TASK-FORCE; ALZHEIMERS-DISEASE; BENTON JUDGMENT; LEWY BODIES; SHORT FORMS; DEMENTIA; CRITERIA AB Objective: Judgment of Line Orientation (JOLO) test is widely used in assessing visuospatial deficits in Parkinson's disease (PD). The neuropsychological assessment battery (NAB) offers the Visual Discrimination test, with age and education correction, parallel forms, and co-normed standardization sample for comparisons within and between domains. However, NAB Visual Discrimination has not been validated in PD, and may not measure the same construct as JOLO. Method: A heterogeneous sample of 47 PD patients completed the JOLO and NAB Visual Discrimination within a broader neuropsychological evaluation. Pearson correlations assessed relationships between JOLO and NAB Visual Discrimination performances. Results: Raw and demographically corrected scores from JOLO and Visual Discrimination were only weakly correlated. NAB Visual Discrimination subtest was moderately correlated with overall cognitive functioning, whereas the JOLO was not. Conclusions: Despite apparent virtues, results do not support NAB Visual Discrimination as an alternative to JOLO in assessing visuospatial functioning in PD.

Recent Findings A PubMed search was carried out to track down articles published between February 2006 and February 2016. Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) that encompassed patients with AAV were included. The American College of Rheumatology (ACR) and the European League against Rheumatism (EULAR) 2014-2015 online abstracts were also reviewed whether they were RTCs or not. Ten PubMed RCTs were analyzed along with eight ACR and four EULAR abstracts. RTX was not inferior to cyclophosphamide (CYC) for remission induction in AAV; it was superior to CYC in patients with relapsing disease and superior for remission maintenance in comparison with azathioprine (AZA). Summary Rituximab is a therapeutic option to induce and maintain remission in patients with AAV.

TI Markers of Islet Endothelial Dysfunction Occur in Male B6.BKS(D)- Lepr(db)/J Mice and May Contribute to Reduced Insulin Release SO ENDOCRINOLOGY LA English DT Article ID GLYCATION END-PRODUCTS; PANCREATIC BETA-CELL; DIABETES-MELLITUS; OXIDATIVE STRESS; BLOOD-VESSELS; DB/DB MICE; IN-VITRO; EXPRESSION; MOUSE; RATS AB Islet endothelial cells produce paracrine factors that support beta-cell function and growth. Endothelial dysfunction underlies diabetic microvascular complications; thus, we hypothesized that in diabetes, islet endothelial cells become dysfunctional, which may contribute to beta-cell secretory dysfunction. Islets/islet endothelial cells were isolated from diabetic B6.BKS(D)-Lepr(db)/J male (db/db) mice, treated with or without the glucose-lowering agent phlorizin, or from C57BL/6J mice fed a high-fat diet for 18 weeks and appropriate controls. Messenger RNA(mRNA) and/or the protein levels of the cell adhesion molecule E-selectin (Sele), proinflammatory cytokine interleukin-6 (II6), vasoconstrictor endothelin-1 (Edn1), and endothelial nitric oxide synthase (Nos3; Nos3) were evaluated, alongwith advanced glycation end product immunoreactivity. Furthermore, an islet endothelial cell line(MS-1) was exposed to diabetic factors (glucose, palmitate, insulin, and tumor necrosis factor-a) for six days. Conditioned media were collected from these cells, incubated with isolated islets, and glucose-stimulated insulin secretion and insulin content were assessed. Islet endothelial cells from db/db mice exhibited increased Sele, II6, and Edn1 mRNA levels, decreased Nos3 protein, and accumulation of advanced glycation end products. Phlorizin treatment significantly increased Nos3 protein levels but did not alter expression of the other markers. High-fat feeding in C57BL/6J mice resulted in increased islet Sele, II6, andEdn1 but no change in Nos3. Exposure of islets to conditionedmedia from MS-1 cells cultured in diabetic conditions resulted in a 50% decrease in glucose-stimulated insulin secretion and 30% decrease in insulin content. These findings demonstrate that, in diabetes, islet endothelial cells show evidence of a dysfunctional phenotype, which may contribute to loss of beta-cell function.

TI Patient engagement in the process of planning and designing outpatient care improvements at the Veterans Administration Health-care System: findings from an online expert panel SO HEALTH EXPECTATIONS LA English DT Article DE ExpertLens; modified Delphi; online expert panel; patient engagement; quality improvement; VA ID QUALITY-IMPROVEMENT; PUBLIC INVOLVEMENT; DECISION-MAKING; SERVICES; PARTICIPATION; STRATEGIES; FRAMEWORK; CANCER AB Context There is a strong interest in the Veterans Administration (VA) Health-care System in promoting patient engagement to improve patient care. Methods We solicited expert opinion using an online expert panel system with a modified Delphi structure called ExpertLens (TM). Experts reviewed, rated and discussed eight scenarios, representing four patient engagement roles in designing and improving VA outpatient care (consultant, implementation advisor, equal stakeholder and lead stakeholder) and two VA levels (local and regional). Rating criteria included desirability, feasibility, patient ability, physician/ staff acceptance and impact on patient-centredness and care quality. Data were analysed using the RAND/UCLA Appropriateness Method for determining consensus. Findings Experts rated consulting with patients at the local level as the most desirable and feasible patient engagement approach. Engagement at the local level was considered more desirable than engagement at the regional level. Being an equal stakeholder at the local level received the highest ratings on the patient-centredness and health-care quality criteria. Conclusions Our findings illustrate expert opinion about different approaches to patient engagement and highlight the benefits and challenges posed by each. Although experts rated local consultations with patients on an as-needed basis as most desirable and feasible, they rated being an equal stakeholder at the local level as having the highest potential impact on patient-centredness and care quality.

TI The Association Between Race/Ethnicity and the Effectiveness of Direct Antiviral Agents for Hepatitis C Virus Infection SO HEPATOLOGY LA English DT Article ID GENOTYPE 1 INFECTION; SUSTAINED VIROLOGICAL RESPONSE; SIMEPREVIR PLUS SOFOSBUVIR; HEPATOCELLULAR-CARCINOMA; CHRONIC HCV; PEGINTERFERON ALPHA-2A; TREATMENT-NAIVE; BLACK PATIENTS; LIVER-DISEASE; US VETERANS AB Black race and Hispanic ethnicity were associated with lower rates of sustained virologic response (SVR) to interferonbased treatments for chronic hepatitis C virus infection, whereas Asian race was associated with higher SVR rates compared to white patients. We aimed to describe the association between race/ ethnicity and effectiveness of new direct-acting antiviral regimens in the Veterans Affairs health care system nationally. We identified 21,095 hepatitis C virus-infected patients (11,029 [52%] white, 6,171 [29%] black, 1,187 [6%] Hispanic, 348 [2%] Asian/ Pacific Islander/ American Indian/ Alaska Native, and 2,360 [11%] declined/ missing race or ethnicity) who initiated antiviral treatment with regimens containing sofosbuvir, simeprevir + sofosbuvir, ledipasvir/ sofosbuvir, or paritaprevir/ ombitasvir/ ritonavir/ dasabuvir during the 18-month period from January 1, 2014, to June 30, 2015. Overall SVR rates were 89.8% (95% confidence interval [CI] 89.2-90.4) in white, 89.8% (95% CI 89.0-90.6) in black, 86.0% (95% CI 83.7-88.0) in Hispanic, and 90.7% (95% CI 87.0-93.5) in Asian/ Pacific Islander/ American Indian/ Alaska Native patients. However, after adjustment for baseline characteristics, black (adjusted odds ratio 5 0.77, P < 0.001) and Hispanic (adjusted odds ratio = 0.76, P = 0.007) patients were less likely to achieve SVR than white patients, a difference that was not explained by early treatment discontinuations. Among genotype 1-infected patients treated with ledipasvir/ sofosbuvir monotherapy, black patients had significantly lower SVR than white patients when treated for 8 weeks but not when treated for 12 weeks. Conclusion: Direct-acting antivirals produce high SVR rates in white, black, Hispanic, and Asian/ Pacific Islander/ American Indian/ Alaska Native patients; but after adjusting for baseline characteristics, black race and Hispanic ethnicity remain independent predictors of treatment failure. Short 8-week ledipasvir/ sofosbuvir monotherapy regimens should perhaps be avoided in black patients with genotype 1 hepatitis C virus.

However, it is not clear how best to screen for frailty in preoperative surgical populations. OBJECTIVE To develop and validate the Risk Analysis Index (RAI), a 14-item instrument used to measure surgical frailty. It can be calculated prospectively (RAI-C), using a clinical questionnaire, or retrospectively (RAI-A), using variables from the surgical quality improvement databases (Veterans Affairs or American College of Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement Projects). DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS Single-site, prospective cohort from July 2011 to September 2015 at the Veterans Affairs Nebraska-Western Iowa Heath Care System, a Level 1b Veterans Affairs Medical Center. The study included all patients presenting to the medical center for elective surgery. EXPOSURES We assessed the RAI-C for all patients scheduled for surgery, linking these scores to administrative and quality improvement data to calculate the RAI-A and the modified Frailty Index. MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURES Receiver operator characteristics and C statistics for each measure predicting postoperative mortality and morbidity. RESULTS Of the participants, the mean (SD) age was 60.7 (13.9) years and 249 participants (3.6%) were women. We assessed the RAI-C 10 698 times, from which we linked 6856 unique patients to mortality data. The C statistic predicting 180-day mortality for the RAI-C was 0.772. Of these 6856 unique patients, we linked 2785 to local Veterans Affairs Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement Projects data and calculated the C statistic for both the RAI-A (0.823) and RAI-C (0.824), along with the correlation between the 2 scores (r = 0.478; P < .001). Of these 2785 patients, there were sufficient data to calculate the modified Frailty Index for 1021, in which the C statistics were 0.865 (RAI-A), 0.797 (RAI-C), and 0.811 (modified Frailty Index). The correlation between the RAI-A and RAI-C was 0.547, and the correlations of the modified Frailty Index to the RAI-A and RAI-C were 0.301 and 0.269, respectively (all P < .001). A cutoff of RAI-C of at least 21 classified 18.3% patients as "frail" with a sensitivity of 0.50 and specificity of 0.82, whereas the RAI-A was less sensitive (0.25) and more specific (0.97), classifying only 3.7% as "frail." CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE The RAI-C and RAI-A represent effective tools for measuring frailty in surgical populations with predictive ability on par with other frailty tools. Moderate correlation between the measures suggests convergent validity. The RAI-C offers the advantage of prospective, preoperative assessment that is proved feasible for large-scale screening in clinical practice. However, further efforts should be directed at determining the optimal components of preoperative frailty assessment. C1 [Hall, Daniel E.] Vet Affairs Pittsburgh Healthcare Syst, Pittsburgh, PA USA.

ID ACUTE CYTOMEGALOVIRUS-INFECTION; UNINFECTED CHILDREN BORN; INTEGRIN ALPHA(4)BETA(7); IMMUNODEFICIENCY-VIRUS; TRANSMISSION; CELLS; MOTHER; EXPRESSION; MUCOSAL; GUT AB Background. Among infants exposed to human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) type 1, mixed breastfeeding is associated with higher postnatal HIV-1 transmission than exclusive breastfeeding, but the mechanisms of this differential risk are uncertain. Methods. HIV-1-exposed Ugandan infants were prospectively assessed during the first year of life for feeding practices and T-cell maturation, intestinal homing (beta 7(hi)), activation, and HIV-1 coreceptor (CCR5) expression in peripheral blood. Infants receiving only breast milk and those with introduction of other foods before 6 months were categorized as exclusive and nonexclusive, respectively. Results. Among CD4(+) and CD8(+) T cells, the expression of memory, activation, and CCR5 markers increased rapidly from birth to week 2, peaking at week 6, whereas cells expressing the intestinal homing marker increased steadily in the central memory ( CM) and effector memory T cells over 48 weeks. At 24 weeks, when feeding practices had diverged, nonexclusively breastfed infants showed increased frequencies and absolute counts of beta 7(hi) CM CD4+ and CD8+ T cells, including the HIV-1-targeted cells with CD4(+)beta 7(hi)/CCR5(+) coexpression, as well as increased activation. Conclusions. The T-cell phenotype associated with susceptibility to HIV-1 infection (CCR5(+), gut-homing, CM CD4+ T cells) was preferentially expressed in nonexclusively breastfed infants, a group of infants at increased risk for HIV-1 acquisition.

In this study, we determined the subvisible particle levels in IV solutions and after the solutions were processed with an IV administration setup that mimicked the typical clinical method of administration. IV saline in bags manufactured by both Hospira and Baxter contained 1600-8000 microparticles/mL and 4-73 x 10(6) nanoparticles/mL in solution. When IV immunoglobulin was diluted into the IV saline, 3700-23,000 microparticles/mL and 18-240 x 10(6) nanoparticles/mL were detected. During processing of the solution through the IV system, in-line filters removed most microparticles. However, there were still 1-21 x 10(6) nanoparticles/mL in IV saline and 7-83 x 10(6) nanoparticles/mL in IV immunoglobulin diluted in saline. Finally, in samples processed through in-line filters, we found relatively large microparticles ( 20-60 mm) that were composed of protein or polycarbonate. These particles resulted from shedding of polycarbonate and sloughing off of protein films downstream from the filter membrane. Overall, the results document that even with in-line filters in place, high levels of subvisible particles are delivered to patients and there is a need for improved, more effective filters and IV solutions with lower particle levels.

Methods: We used cross-sectional data from 9,205 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2007 to 2012 participants aged 20 to 65 years who identified as White, Black, or Hispanic. Activity (ie, recreation, occupation, and transportation activity) was categorized into quartiles. Sleep duration was categorized as short (56 hours/night) or normal (>6 to 59 hours/night). Logistic regression was used to estimate associations of activity with sleep duration. Results: Recommended levels of recreation activity and moderate levels of transportation activity were associated with normal sleep duration [Odds Ratio (OR): = 1.33, 95% Confidence Interval (CI) = 1.08, 1.65; OR = 1.28, 95% CI = 1.02, 1.62, respectively]. High occupation physical activity was associated with shorter sleep duration (OR = 0.59, 95% CI = 0:49, 0.71). Differences were observed by race/ethnicity in associations of recreation and occupation activity with sleep duration. Conclusions: White individuals who engaged in some recreation activity, relative to being inactive, had more favorable sleep duration; whereas, high levels of occupation activity were associated with worse sleep duration among White and Black individuals. Physical activity was not associated with sleep duration among Hispanics. C1 [Murillo, Rosenda] Univ Houston, Dept Psychol Hlth & Learning Sci, Houston, TX 77004 USA.

Dynamic isokinetic muscle fatigue testing may reveal increased vulnerability to disability and mortality beyond strength testing. Methods: We studied community-dwelling older adults enrolled in the Health Aging and Body Composition study (age range: 71-82) free of mobility disability and who underwent isokinetic muscle fatigue testing in 1999-2000 (n = 1,963). Isokinetic quadriceps work and fatigue index was determined over 30 repetitions and compared with isometric quadriceps maximum torque. Work was normalized to leg lean mass accounting for gender-specific differences (specific work). The primary outcome was incident persistent severe lower extremity limitation (PSLL), defined as two consecutive reports of either having a lot of difficulty or being unable to walk 1/4 mile or climb 10 steps without resting. The secondary outcome was all-cause mortality. Results: There were 608 (31%) occurrences of incident PSLL and 488 (25%) deaths during median follow-up of 9.3 years. After adjustment, lower isokinetic work was associated with significantly greater risks of PSLL and mortality across the full measured range. Hazard ratios per standard deviation lower specific isokinetic work were 1.22 (95% CI 1.12, 1.33) for PSLL and 1.21 (95% CI 1.13, 1.30) for mortality, respectively. Lower isometric strength was associated with PSLL, but not mortality. Fatigue index was not associated with PSLL or mortality. Conclusions: Muscle endurance, estimated by isokinetic work, is an indicator of muscle health associated with mobility limitation and mortality providing important insight beyond strength testing.

Methods We followed up participants with HIV from the Veterans Aging Cohort Study for a minimum of 3 years between Jan 1, 1998, and Dec 31, 2012, and used cancer registry data to identify incident cases of lung cancer. The index date for each patient was the later of the date HIV care began or Jan 1, 1998. We excluded patients with less than 3 years' follow-up, prevalent diagnoses of lung cancer, or incomplete laboratory data. We used Cox regression models to investigate the relation between different time-updated lagged and cumulative exposures (CD4 cell count, CD8 cell count, CD4/CD8 ratio, HIV RNA, and bacterial pneumonia) and risk of lung cancer. Models were adjusted for age, race or ethnicity, smoking, hepatitis C virus infection, alcohol use disorders, drug use disorders, and history of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and occupational lung disease. Findings We identified 277 cases of incident lung cancer in 21 666 participants with HIV. In separate models for each time-updated 12 month lagged, 24 month simple moving average cumulative exposure, increased risk of lung cancer was associated with low CD4 cell count (p trend= 0.001), low CD4/CD8 ratio (p trend= 0.0001), high HIV RNA concentration (p=0.004), and more cumulative bacterial pneumonia episodes (12 month lag only; p trend= 0.0004). In a mutually adjusted model including these factors, CD4/CD8 ratio and cumulative bacterial pneumonia episodes remained significant (p trends 0.003 and 0.004, respectively). Interpretation In our large HIV cohort in the antiretroviral therapy era, we found evidence that dysfunctional immune activation and chronic inflammation contribute to the development of lung cancer in the setting of HIV infection. These findings could be used to target lung-cancer prevention measures to high-risk groups.

Cells exhibit more sophisticated migration, control, and functional capabilities compared to nanoparticles, scaffolds, viruses, and other engineered materials or agents commonly used in the biomedical field. Over the past decade, modification of cell surfaces with natural or synthetic materials has been studied to exploit this complexity for both fundamental and translational goals. In this review we present the existing biomedical technologies for engineering cell surfaces with one important class of materials, polyelectrolytes. We begin by introducing the challenges facing the cell surface engineering field. We then discuss the features of polyelectrolytes and how these properties can be harnessed to solve challenges in cell therapy, tissue engineering, cell-based drug delivery, sensing and tracking, and immune modulation. Throughout the review, we highlight opportunities to drive the field forward by bridging new knowledge of polyelectrolytes with existing translational challenges.

We tested the effectiveness of a home-based low-intensity CHW intervention for improving health outcomes among low-income adults with diabetes. Methods Low-income patients with glycated hemoglobin A 1c (HbA 1c) of 8.0% or higher in the 12 months before enrollment from 3 safetynet providers were randomized to a 12-month CHW-delivered diabetes self-management intervention or usual care. CHWs were based at a local health department. The primary outcome was change in HbA 1c from baseline enrollment to 12 months; secondary outcomes included blood pressure and lipid levels, quality of life, and health care use. Results The change in HbA 1c in the intervention group (n = 145) (unadjusted mean of 9.09% to 8.58%, change of -0.51) compared with the control group (n = 142) (9.04% to 8.71%, change of -0.33) was not significant (P =.54). In an analysis of participants with poor glycemic control (HbA 1c > 10%), the intervention group had a 1.23-point greater decrease in HbA 1c compared with controls (P =.046). For the entire study population, we found a decrease in reported physician visits (P <.001) and no improvement in healthrelated quality of life (P =.07) in the intervention group compared with the control group. Conclusion A low-intensity CHW-delivered intervention to support diabetes self-management did not significantly improve HbA 1c relative to usual care. Among the subgroup of participants with poor glycemic control (HbA 1c > 10% at baseline), the intervention was effective.

Methods: In a multisite randomized controlled trial, 358 veterans were assigned to either usual outpatient mental health treatment (N=165) or usual care plus twice-a-month telephone care management (TCM) and support in the first three months of treatment (N=193). Treatment utilization and medication refills were determined from U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs administrative data. PTSD, depression, quality of life, aggressive behavior, and substance use were assessed with self-report questionnaires at intake, four months, and 12 months. Results: Telephone care managers reached 95% of TCM participants (N=182), completing an average 5.1 of 6.0 planned telephone calls. During the three-month intervention period, TCM participants completed 43% more mental health visits (M +/- SD=5.9 +/- 6.8) than did those in usual care (4.1 +/- 4.2) ( incident rate ratio=1.36, x(2)=6.56, df=1, p<.01).Treatment visits in the nine-month follow-up period and medication refills did not differ by condition. Only 9% of participants were scheduled to receive evidence-based psychotherapy. Slopes of improvement in PTSD, depression, alcohol misuse, drug problems, aggressive behavior, and quality of life did not differ by condition or treatment attendance. Conclusions: TCM improved PTSD patients' treatment attendance but not their outcomes. TCM can enhance treatment engagement, but outcomes depend on the effectiveness of the treatments that patients receive.

In treatment contexts, patients' appraisals of alcohol-related problems have implications for assessment, intervention strategies, and prognosis. This study investigated the moderating effect of within-person (daily symptoms) and between-person (overall severity) differences in PTSD on the association between daily drinking and same-day alcohol-related problems. Participants with comorbid AD and PTSD (N = 86) completed 1 week of Interactive Voice Recognition data collection, and logistic and gamma-adjusted multilevel models were used to estimate odds and magnitude of self-appraised alcohol-related problems. Results revealed that both within-person and between-person PTSD moderated the association between number of drinks and severity of self-appraised problems. As within-person and between-person PTSD symptoms increased, there was a weaker association between number of drinks consumed and perceived alcohol-related problems. Contrasts further revealed that on nondrinking and light-drinking days, PTSD (both daily symptoms and overall severity) was positively associated with ratings of alcohol-related problems. However, PTSD was not associated with alcohol-related problems on heavier drinking days. In conclusion, more severe PTSD is associated with a less directly contingent relationship between drinking quantity and perceived alcohol-related problems. These findings suggest the importance of further investigations of this moderating effect as well as clinical treatment of comorbid AD and severe PTSD with functional analysis of drinking.

An Analysis of Data From Two Randomized Controlled Trials SO PSYCHOLOGY OF ADDICTIVE BEHAVIORS LA English DT Article DE drinking games; brief intervention; motivational interviewing; college; alcohol ID COLLEGE-STUDENTS; ALCOHOL INTERVENTIONS; AUSTRALIAN UNIVERSITY; STEPPED CARE; PARTICIPATION; CONSUMPTION; DRINKERS; DETERMINANTS; METAANALYSIS; EFFICACY AB College students frequently engage in drinking games (DGs) and experience a variety of consequences as a result. It is currently unknown whether brief motivational interventions (BMIs) that provide feedback on DG participation can reduce this high risk behavior. This study examined outcome data from 2 randomized clinical trials to examine whether BMIs facilitate change in DG frequency and how these changes may occur. Mandated college students (Trial 1, N = 198, 46% female; Trial 2, N = 412; 32% female) were randomized to BMI or comparison control conditions. Hierarchical linear modeling (HLM) was used to compare the BMI and comparison groups to determine whether the BMI reduced DG participation over time. Percent change talk (PCT) during the discussion of DG during the session was examined as a predictor of change in DG frequency, and gender was examined as a moderator of treatment effects. Controlling for regular drinking frequency, participants who received a BMI did not significantly reduce their DG frequency relative to the comparison group in either sample, and the BMI was equally ineffective at reducing DG behavior for men and women. DG-related PCT during the BMI was associated with lower DG frequency at the second follow-up in both trials. In Trial 1, PCT during the BMI was associated with less steep increases in DG frequency across the course of all follow-ups. Effects of PCT on DG behavior were not moderated by gender. Findings did not support hypothesized reductions in DG participation following a BMI. Future research should explore whether targeted DG-specific interventions could reduce DG participation and the role of in-session client language in facilitating such change.

ZIKV persists in the semen months after the acute viremic phase in humans. To further understand the consequences of ZIKV persistence in males, we infected Ifnar1(-/-) mice via subcutaneous injection of a pathogenic but nonlethal ZIKV strain. ZIKV replication persists within the testes even after clearance from the blood, with interstitial, testosterone-producing Leydig cells supporting virus replication. We found high levels of viral RNA and antigen within the epididymal lumen, where sperm is stored, and within surrounding epithelial cells. Unexpectedly, at 21 days post-infection, the testes of the ZIKV-infected mice were significantly smaller compared to those of mock-infected mice, indicating progressive testicular atrophy. ZIKV infection caused a reduction in serum testosterone, suggesting that male fertility can be affected. Our findings have important implications for nonvector-borne vertical transmission, as well as long-term potential reproductive deficiencies, in ZIKV-infected males.

Endochinlike quinolones (ELQs) are preclinical compounds that are efficacious against apicomplexan-caused diseases, including toxoplasmosis, malaria, and babesiosis. Of the ELQs, ELQ-316 has demonstrated the greatest efficacy against acute and chronic experimental toxoplasmosis. Although genetic analyses in other organisms have highlighted the importance of the cytochrome bc(1) complex Q(i) site for ELQ sensitivity, the mechanism of action of ELQs against T. gondii and the specific mechanism of ELQ-316 remain unknown. Here, we describe the selection and genetic characterization of T. gondii clones resistant to ELQ-316. A T. gondii strain selected under ELQ-316 drug pressure was found to possess a Thr222-Pro amino acid substitution that confers 49-fold resistance to ELQ-316 and 19-fold resistance to antimycin, a well-characterized Q(i) site inhibitor. These findings provide further evidence for ELQ Q(i) site inhibition in T. gondii and greater insight into the interactions of Q(i) site inhibitors with the apicomplexan cytochrome bc(1) complex.

TI Comparative Effectiveness of Diabetic Oral Medications Among HIV-Infected and HIV-Uninfected Veterans SO DIABETES CARE LA English DT Article ID HUMAN-IMMUNODEFICIENCY-VIRUS; CORONARY-HEART-DISEASE; NUCLEOSIDE ANALOG; CLINICAL-TRIALS; DATA-COLLECTION; TOTAL BILIRUBIN; ADVERSE EVENTS; ASSOCIATION; MELLITUS; THERAPY AB OBJECTIVE Type 2 diabetes is increasingly common in HIV-infected individuals. The objective of this study was to compare the glycemic effectiveness of oral diabetic medications among patients with and without HIV infection. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS A longitudinal cohort study was conducted among HIV-infected and uninfected veterans with type 2 diabetes initiating diabetic medications between 1999 and 2010. Generalized estimating equations were used to compare changes in hemoglobin A(1c) (HbA(1c)) through the year after medication initiation, adjusting for baseline HbA1c level and clinical covariates. A subanalysis using propensity scores was conducted to account for confounding by indication. RESULTS A total of 2,454 HIV-infected patients and 8,892 HIV-uninfected patients initiated diabetic medications during the study period. The most commonly prescribed medication was metformin (n = 5,647, 50%), followed by a sulfonylurea (n = 5,554, 49%) and a thiazolidinedione (n = 145, 1%). After adjustment for potential confounders, there was no significant difference in the change in HbA(1c) level among the three groups of new users. HIV infection was not significantly associated with glycemic response (P = 0.24). Black and Hispanic patients had a poorer response to therapy compared with white patients, with a relative increase in HbA1c level of 0.16% (95% CI 0.08, 0.24) [1.7 mmol/mol (0.9, 2.6)] (P < 0.001) and 0.25% (0.11, 0.39) [2.7 mmol/mol (1.2, 4.3)] (P = 0.001), respectively. CONCLUSIONS We found that glycemic response was independent of the initial class of diabetic medication prescribed among HIV-uninfected and HIV-infected adults with type 2 diabetes. The mechanisms leading to poorer response among black and Hispanic patients, who make up a substantial proportion of those with HIV infection and type 2 diabetes, require further investigation.

Patients and methods: We performed a secondary analysis of three prospective non-interventional cohort studies focusing on ARDS patients from 927 intensive care units (ICUs) in 40 countries. These patients received mechanical ventilation for more than 12 h during 1-month periods in 1998, 2004, and 2010. We used multivariable logistic regression and a propensity score analysis to examine the association between hypercapnia and ICU mortality. Main outcomes: We included 1899 patients with ARDS in this study. The relationship between maximum PaCO2 in the first 48 h and mortality suggests higher mortality at or above PaCO2 of >= 50 mmHg. Patients with severe hypercapnia (PaCO2 >= 50 mmHg) had higher complication rates, more organ failures, and worse outcomes. After adjusting for age, SAPS II score, respiratory rate, positive end-expiratory pressure, PaO2/FiO(2) ratio, driving pressure, pressure/volume limitation strategy (PLS), corrected minute ventilation, and presence of acidosis, severe hypercapnia was associated with increased risk of ICU mortality [odds ratio (OR) 1.93, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.32 to 2.81; p = 0.001]. In patients with severe hypercapnia matched for all other variables, ventilation with PLS was associated with higher ICU mortality (OR 1.58, CI 95% 1.04-2.41; p = 0.032). Conclusions: Severe hypercapnia appears to be independently associated with higher ICU mortality in patients with ARDS. Trial registration: Clinicaltrials.gov identifier, NCT01093482.

Although they were healthier upon entering military service compared to the general U.S. population, in the longer term veterans tend to be of equivalent or worse health than civilians. One primary explanation for the veterans' health disparity is poorer health behaviors during or after military service, especially areas of physical activity, nutrition, tobacco, and alcohol. In response, the Department of Defense and Department of Veterans Affairs continue to develop, evaluate, and improve health promotion programs and healthcare services for military and veteran health behavior in an integrated approach. Future research and practice is needed to better understand and promote positive health behavior during key transition periods in the military and veteran life course. Also paramount is implementation and evaluation of existing interventions, programs, and policies across the population using an integrated and person centered approach.

All pregnancies resulting in a live birth were included, and categorized as occurring among non-deployers, before deployment, during deployment, or after deployment. Outcomes included preterm birth, low birth weight, and macrosomia. The association of deployment with selected outcomes was estimated using separate general estimating equations to account for lack of outcome independence among women contributing multiple pregnancies. Adjustment variables included maternal age at outcome, and race/ethnicity. Results There were 2276 live births (191 preterm births, 153 low birth weight infants, and 272 macrosomic infants). Compared with pregnancies before deployment, pregnancies among non-deployers and those after deployment appeared to have greater risk of preterm birth [non-deployers: odds ratio (OR) = 2.16, 95 % confidence interval (CI) 1.25, 3.72; after deployment: OR = 1.90, 95 % CI 0.90, 4.02]. A similar pattern was observed for low birth weight. No association of deployment with macrosomia was detected. Discussion Compared with non-deployers, those who eventually deploy appear to have better pregnancy outcomes prior to deployment, but this advantage is no longer apparent after deployment. Non-deployers may not be an appropriate reference group to study the putative health impacts of deployment on pregnancy outcomes.

TI A protocadherin gene cluster regulatory variant is associated with nicotine withdrawal and the urge to smoke SO MOLECULAR PSYCHIATRY LA English DT Article ID GENOME-WIDE ASSOCIATION; STATE FUNCTIONAL CONNECTIVITY; INTRAVENOUS NICOTINE; QUIT SMOKING; ACETYLCHOLINE-RECEPTOR; ANXIETY SENSITIVITY; EUROPEAN-AMERICANS; DISTRESS TOLERANCE; PREFRONTAL CORTEX; NUCLEUS-ACCUMBENS AB Nicotine withdrawal symptoms contribute to relapse in smokers, thereby prolonging the harm caused by smoking. To investigate the molecular basis for this phenomenon, we conducted a genome-wide association study of DSM-IV nicotine withdrawal in a sample of African American (AA) and European American (EA) smokers. A combined AA and EA meta-analysis (n = 8021) identified three highly correlated single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the protocadherin (PCDH)-alpha, -beta and -gamma gene cluster on chromosome 5 that were associated with nicotine withdrawal (P<5x10(-8)). We then studied one of the SNPs, rs31746, in an independent sample of smokers who participated in an intravenous nicotine infusion study that followed overnight smoking abstinence. After nicotine infusion, abstinent smokers with the withdrawal risk allele experienced greater alleviation of their urges to smoke, as assessed by the Brief Questionnaire on Smoking Urges (BQSU). Prior work has shown that the PCDH-alpha, -beta and -gamma genes are expressed in neurons in a highly organized manner. We found that rs31746 mapped to a long-range neuron-specific enhancer element shown previously to regulate PCDH-alpha, -beta and -gamma gene expression. Using Braincloud mRNA expression data, we identified a robust and specific association between rs31746 and PCDH-beta 8 mRNA expression in frontal cortex tissue (P<1x10(-5)). We conclude that PCDH-alpha, -beta and -gamma gene cluster regulatory variation influences the severity of nicotine withdrawal. Further studies on the PCDH-alpha, -beta and -gamma genes and their role in nicotine withdrawal may inform the development of novel smoking cessation treatments and reduce the harm caused by tobacco smoking.

TI A mouse model of paralytic myelitis caused by enterovirus D68 SO PLOS PATHOGENS LA English DT Article ID ACUTE FLACCID MYELITIS; UNKNOWN ETIOLOGY; IDENTIFICATION; INFECTION; CHILDREN; FEATURES; SEROTYPE; ILLNESS AB In 2014, the United States experienced an epidemic of acute flaccid myelitis (AFM) cases in children coincident with a nationwide outbreak of enterovirus D68 (EV-D68) respiratory disease. Up to half of the 2014 AFM patients had EV-D68 RNA detected by RT-PCR in their respiratory secretions, although EV-D68 was only detected in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) from one 2014 AFM patient. Given previously described molecular and epidemiologic associations between EV-D68 and AFM, we sought to develop an animal model by screening seven EV-D68 strains for the ability to induce neurological disease in neonatal mice. We found that four EV-D68 strains from the 2014 outbreak (out of five tested) produced a paralytic disease in mice resembling human AFM. The remaining 2014 strain, as well as 1962 prototype EV-D68 strains Fermon and Rhyne, did not produce, or rarely produced, paralysis in mice. In-depth examination of the paralysis caused by a representative 2014 strain, MO/14-18947, revealed infectious virus, virion particles, and viral genome in the spinal cords of paralyzed mice. Paralysis was elicited in mice following intramuscular, intracerebral, intraperitoneal, and intranasal infection, in descending frequency, and was associated with infection and loss of motor neurons in the anterior horns of spinal cord segments corresponding to paralyzed limbs. Virus isolated from spinal cords of infected mice transmitted disease when injected into naive mice, fulfilling Koch's postulates in this model. Finally, we found that EV-D68 immune sera, but not normal mouse sera, protected mice from development of paralysis and death when administered prior to viral challenge. These studies establish an experimental model to study EV-D68-induced myelitis and to better understand disease pathogenesis and develop potential therapies.

TI TAZ Induction Directs Differentiation of Thyroid Follicular Cells from Human Embryonic Stem Cells SO THYROID LA English DT Article DE thyroid follicular cells; human embryonic stem cells; NK2 homeobox 1 (NKX2-1); Paired box gene 8 (PAX8); transcriptional co-activator with PDZ-binding motif (TAZ); ethacridine ID SYNERGISTICALLY ACTIVATE; TRANSCRIPTION FACTOR-1; COACTIVATOR; PAX8; ENDODERM; MORPHOGENESIS; ENHANCER; PROTEIN; TTF-1; GLAND AB Objective: The differentiation program for human thyroid follicular cells (TFCs) relies on the interplay between sequence-specific transcription factors and transcriptional co-regulators. Transcriptional co-activator with PDZbinding motif (TAZ) is a co-activator that regulates several transcription factors, including PAX8 and NKX2-1, which play a central role in thyroid-specific gene transcription. TAZ and PAX8/ NKX2-1 are co-expressed in the nuclei of thyroid cells, and TAZ interacts directly with both PAX8 and NKX2-1, leading to their enhanced transcriptional activity on the thyroglobulin (TG) promoter and additional genes. Methods: The use of a small molecule, ethacridine, recently identified as a TAZ activator, in the differentiation of thyroid cells from human embryonic stem (hES) cells was studied. First, endodermal cells were derived from hES cells using Activin A, followed by induction of differentiation into thyroid cells directed by ethacridine and thyrotropin (TSH). Results: The expression of TAZ was increased in the Activin A-derived endodermal cells by ethacridine in a dose-dependent manner and followed by increases in PAX8 and NKX2-1 when assessed by both quantitative polymerase chain reaction and immunostaining. Following further differentiation with the combination of ethacridine and TSH, the thyroid-specific genes TG, TPO, TSHR, and NIS were all induced in the differentiated hES cells. When these cells were cultured with extracellular matrix-coated dishes, thyroid follicle formation and abundant TG protein expression were observed. Furthermore, such hES cell-derived thyroid follicles showed a marked TSH-induced and dose-dependent increase in radioiodine uptake and protein-bound iodine accumulation. Conclusion: These data show that fully functional human thyroid cells can be derived from hES cells using ethacridine, a TAZ activator, which induces thyroid-specific gene expression and promotes thyroid cell differentiation from the hES cells. These studies again demonstrate the importance of transcriptional regulation in thyroid cell development. This approach also yields functional human thyrocytes, without any gene transfection or complex culture conditions, by directly manipulating the transcriptional machinery without interfering with intermediate signaling events.
