Abstract:
Abstract Background: Oncotype DX (ODX) is a genomic signature (GS) for the prediction of risk of recurrence and benefit of chemotherapy (CT) in both node negative (N0) and positive (N1), hormone receptor positive (HR+), HER2 negative (HER2-) early breast cancer (eBC). ODX was not an inclusion criterion in the MonarchE but was one in the Natalee study, in which trials most patients received neo-adjuvant chemotherapy. We aim to evaluate the proportion of patients potentially eligible for adjuvant CDK4/6 inhibitors (CDK4/6i) without CT indication by genomic risk using real-world data from a large dataset of patients from various Brazilian institutions. Methods: Clinicopathologic and ODX information were reviewed for patients with T1-T3, N0-N1, HR+/HER2- eBC who had an ODX performed between 2005 and 2020. Projections of CT indication by genomic criteria were based on TAILORx and RxPONDER data. Projections of adjuvant CDK4/6i indication were based on the MonarchE and Natalee criteria. Results: Of 636 patients, 27.5%/51.8%/20.8% were T1mic-a-b/T1c/T2-3, respectively. 19.5% were grade 1 (G1), 66.9% G2 tumors and 12.9% G3. 74 (11.6%) were N1. The ODX indicated low (< 11), intermediate (11-25) and high ( >25) risk in 117 (18.4%), 408 (64.1%) and 111 (17.5%) patients, respectively. 408 patients (64.2%) had low clinical risk and 228 patients (35.8%) had high clinical risk disease. In the overall cohort, 439 (69%) did not have genomic indication for CT, 25 (3.9%) and 133 (21%) were eligible for adjuvant abemaciclib and ribociclib, respectively. Among patients eligible for adjuvant CDK4/6i, greater than 50% did not meet genomic criteria for recommendation of CT (Table 1). Conclusions: In times of rapid incorporation of both GES (as valuable treatment de-escalation tools) and adjuvant CDK4/6i, our results suggest that a meaningful proportion of patients could be eligible for adjuvant abemaciclib and/or ribociclib independently of CT indication. However, little is currently known about the role of these agents in patients not treated with chemotherapy because they were largely unrepresented in these studies. Proportion of patients eligible for adjuvant CDK4/6i in the overall and non-CT eligible population.

Abstract:
7058 Background: IM 400 mg daily is the front-line treatment of CP CML, but provides only 50% major molecular responses (MMR) at 18 months (Mo). We designed a phase III randomized multicenter open-label prospective trial comparing IM 400 mg/d (n=159) with 3 experimental arms: IM 600 mg/d (n=160), IM 400 mg/d + s/c cytarabine (Ara-C), (20 mg/m2/d, d15–28 of 28-day cycles) (n=158) and IM 400 mg/d + s/c Peg-IFN2a (90 μg/wk) (n=159). Pts were allocated at a 1.1.1.1 ratio, stratified by Sokal risk groups. Molecular assessments were centralized and blinded. An interim analysis of 636 pts was planned based on an IS BCR-ABL/ABL ratio <0.01% (Optimal Molecular Response, OMR) at 1 year (α=0.85%, β=10%). Results: 636 pts were recruited between 9/2003 and 10/2007, median age 51 (18–78) yrs, 62% males, median follow-up for alive pts 36 (12–62) Mo. At 3 Mo, 88% of pts achieved complete hematologic response. Complete cytogenetic response (CCyR), MMR and OMR rates are presented (Table). MMR rates at 6 and 12 Mo were higher for IM-PegIFN as compared to IM-400 (p<10-3). At 18 Mo the cumulative OMR rates were 22% (IM-400), 28% (IM-600), 25% (IM-Ara-c), 43% (IM-PegIFN). Grade 3/4 neutropenia and/or thrombocytopenia occurred during the first year in 8% IM-400, 14% IM-600, 41% IM-Ara-C and 40% IM-PegIFN arms respectively. Grade 3/4 non-hematological toxicities occurred in 19% IM-400 (edemas, muscle cramps), 30% IM-600, 27% IM-Ara-C (diarrhea) and 31% IM-PegIFN pts (skin rashes, asthenia). Within the first 12 Mo, discontinuation of experimental treatment occurred in 8% IM-600, 39% Ara-C and 45% PegIFN pts. Conclusions: Although a significant number of pts reduced or stopped PegIFN within the first year, significant improvements in molecular response rates were observed in the IM-Peg IFN arm and may translate into survival benefit.

Abstract:
Context. A recent observational census of Kuiper belt objects (KBOs) has unveiled anomalous orbital structures. This has led to the hypothesis that an additional ∼5 − 10 m⊕ planet exists. This planet, known as Planet 9, occupies an eccentric and inclined orbit at hundreds of astronomical units. However, the KBOs under consideration have the largest known semimajor axes at a > 250 AU; thus they are very difficult to detect. Aims. In the context of the proposed Planet 9, we aim to measure the mean plane of the Kuiper belt at a > 50 AU. In a comparison of the expected and observed mean planes, some constraints would be put on the mass and orbit of this undiscovered planet. Methods. We adopted and developed the theoretical approach of Volk & Malhotra (2017, AJ, 154, 62) to the relative angle δ between the expected mean plane of the Kuiper belt and the invariable plane determined by the eight known planets. Numerical simulations were constructed to validate our theoretical approach. Then similar to Volk & Malhotra (2017, AJ, 154, 62), we derived the angle δ for the real observed KBOs with 100 < a < 200 AU, and the measurement uncertainties were also estimated. Finally, for comparison, maps of the theoretically expected δ were created for different combinations of possible Planet 9 parameters. Results. The expected mean plane of the Kuiper belt nearly coincides with the said invariable plane interior to a = 90 AU. But these two planes deviate noticeably from each other at a > 100 AU owing to the presence of Planet 9 because the relative angle δ could be as large as ∼10°. Using the 1σ upper limit of δ < 5° deduced from real KBO samples as a constraint, we present the most probable parameters of Planet 9: for mass m9 = 10 m⊕, orbits with inclinations i9 = 30°, 20°, and 15° should have semimajor axes a9 > 530 AU, 450 AU, and 400 AU, respectively; for m9 = 5 m⊕, the orbit is i9 = 30° and a9 > 440 AU, or i9 < 20° and a9 > 400 AU. In this work, the minimum a9 increases with the eccentricity e9 (∈[0.2, 0.6]) but not significantly.

Abstract:
e22020 Background: The pediatric cancers is in the global agenda to improve the survival rates which is still low in LMICs although it is more than 80% in HICs. More than 300.000 pediatric cancer cases annually are expected in children and adolescents aged 0-14 globally. Registry is the first step of an efficient cancer control. Here, we present the most updated results of the pediatric cancer registry fromTurkey. Methods: Turkish Pediatric Oncology Group and Turkish Pediatric Hematology Association has established the pediatric cancer registry in 2002. The childhood cancer cases registered between 2009-2021 was included in this analysis. International Childhood Cancer Classification System was used for the classification. Essential demographic findings, ICD-O-3 morphology and topography codes were recorded for each case. Results: During the 13 years from 2009 to 2021, 24080 cases were registered. For all cases, median age was 6.7 year (0-19; M/F 13461/10609, 4 hermaphrodite, 6 unknown). Age distribution was 0-4 yrs, 40.8%; 5-9 yrs, 23.8%; 10-14 yrs, 23.3%; 15-19 yrs, 12.1%) The distribution of the tumor types were [number of cases, percentage of total, median age yrs, M/F]: Leukemia (5819, 24.2%, 5.5, 3366/2453); Lymphoma & other RES tumors (4446, 18.5%, 9.8, 2956/1487, 1 hermaphrodite & 2 unknown); CNS [brain & spinal] (3730, 15.5%, 6.8, 2061/1668, 1 unkown); Symphatetic system (1965, 8.2%, 2.3, 1010/955); Retinoblastoma (675, 2.8%, 1.4, 375/300); Renal (1160, 4.8%, 3.1, 557/601, 1 hermaphrodite & 1 unknown); Liver (409, 1.7%, 2.2, 234/175); Malignant bone (1584, 6.6%, 12.6, 864/720); Soft tissue sarcomas (1726, 7.2%, 7.7, 983/743); Germ cell (1593, 6.6%, 9.6, 588/1001, 2 hermaphrodite, 2 unknown); Carcinoma & other malignant epithelial (804, 3.3%, 13.5, 381/423); Other/non-specific malignant (169, 0.7%, 7.9, 86/83). Five year survival rate was found as 72.3%. Conclusions: The registry shows that the survival rates for children and adolescents have been improved to 72% which reflects the status of the pediatric cancer care in Turkey. The data from this work became a valuable source for all stakeholders in national and international level working on improvement the pediatric cancer control.

Abstract:
Abstract Imatinib (IM) at 400 mg daily is the first line therapy for newly diagnosed CML patients (pts); however, less than 50% of major molecular responses (MMR) are obtained at 12 months. To improve these results, we designed a phase III, multicenter, open-label, prospective randomized trial. The reference arm was IM 400 mg daily (n=159). The 3 experimental arms were IM 600 mg daily (n=160), IM 400mg daily in combination with Ara-C, (20 mg/m2/day, days 15–28 of 28-day cycles)(n=158) and IM 400mg in combination with Peg-IFN alfa-2a (Peg-IFN2a, 90 μg weekly) (n=159). Treatment was delivered at least 12 months or until treatment failure (disease progression) or major toxicity. The primary endpoint is the overall survival. Other endpoints are: rate and duration of hematologic and cytogenetic responses, major (MCyR) and complete (CCyR), molecular response (major molecular response ie MMR) and the tolerability. Using treatment allocation ratio 1.1.1.1, randomization was stratified according to Sokal risk groups. The current interim analysis of the first 636 patients (α=0.85%, β=10%) at 1 year from randomization was planned in order to select the best experimental arm for further comparison with IM 400. The increased dose of IM or a combination regimen would be considered as promising if it increased the 4 log reduction response rate by at least 20 percentage points, e.g. from 15% to 35%, with an acceptable tolerability. Evaluation of molecular response up to 12 months was centralized, blinded and calculated according to International score (IS). Pts were recruited between 9/2003 and 10/2007.[median age 51 yrs (18–82), 62% of pts were male; Sokal distribution was low risk 33%, intermediate risk 41% and 27% high risk]. Median follow-up is 36 months (range 8–57) at the time of analysis. Overall, at 3 months 86 % of pts achieved complete hematologic response. The MCyR, CCyR and MMR rates at 6 and 12 months are: IM-400 IM-600 IM-Ara-c IM-PegIFN *p&lt; 10−2 (overall); ** p&lt;10−2 (overall) At 6 months (636 pts, ITT) MCyR 74% 79% 68% 74% CCyR * 48% 67% 55% 56% At 12months (562 evaluable pts) MCyR 64% 76% 77% 74% CCyR 57% 65% 66% 71% MMR at 6 months** 21% 33% 27% 39% MMR at 12 months 40% 52% 51% 61% Interestingly the rate of MMR at 6 months was significantly higher for IM-PegIFN as compared with IM-400 (p&lt;10−3). The 4-log reduction rate in the BCR-ABL/ABL transcript were 18%, 21%, 22%, 34%, for the IM-400, IM-600, IM-Ara-c and IM-PegIFN arms respectively. The corresponding numbers of undetectable (complete molecular response) pts were 2%, 2%, 3% and 9% at 12 months respectively. Grade 3/4 neutropenia and/or thrombocytopenia occurred in 8% of IM-400 pts, in 14% of IM-600 pts, in 41% of IMAra- c pts and in 40% of IM-PegIFN pts respectively. Grade 3/4 non hematological events were reported in 19% of IM-400 pts, in 30% of IM-600 pts, in 27% of IM Ara-c pts and in 31% of IM-PegIFN pts. Among them a relationship between treatment and event was suspected for 21 pts (13%) with IM-400 (7 liver toxicity; 7 oedema+muscle cramps), for 31 pts (19%) with IM-600 (7 liver toxicity, 11 oedema+ muscle cramps) for 36 pts (23%) with IM-Ara-c (2 liver toxicity; 10 gut side effect) and for 47 pts (29%) with IM-PegIFN (6 liver toxicity, 13 skin rash). Discontinuation of experimental treatment occurred within the first 6 and 12 months in 26% and 18% of IM-Ara-c pts and in 35% and 11% pts of IM-PegIFN pts respectively. Within the first 12 months 36% of 600-IM pts reduced their dosage. Although a substantial number of pts stopped PegIFN, this first analysis indicates the usefulness of a combination of IM-PegIFN for the initial treatment of pts with CML CP with a significant molecular response rate improvement. Complete analysis of the 636 pts with a follow-up of 12 months will be presented.

Abstract:
This study investigates potential non-radiation hazards, specifically Ozone (O3) production, during Linear Accelerator (LINAC) electron mode radiotherapy. The research uses experimental measurements to determine Ozone concentration in the LINAC patient waiting room and control room. Measurements are taken assuming a ±2-hour delay in one working day, using 9 MeV and 12 MeV energy, 400 MU dose rate, and illumination angles of 0o, 90o, and 270o. Maximum Ozone concentrations in the LINAC patient waiting room and control room are found to be 6.6 ppb (12 MeV) and 8.3 ppb (12 MeV), respectively. These concentrations fall below the chemical threshold limit and are deemed safe for human exposure. Notably, potentially detectable Ozone levels are observed in the LINAC banker. Overall, this research highlights the importance of monitoring Ozone levels to ensure the safety of both patients and personnel in LINAC facilities.

Abstract:
Abstract The notion of finiteness is one of those theoretical concepts that is widely used but vaguely defined. Traditionally, finiteness has often been understood in terms of morphological categories, i.e. as the ability of a verbal form to be marked for certain morphological categories such as subject agreement in person and number, or tense (e.g. Schwyzer 1939: 639; Heidolph et al. 1981: 498). Generative grammar also accepts that finiteness of a clause correlates, although indirectly, with verbal morphology (e.g Radford 1988: 287–92; Rizzi 1997: 284; Carnie 2002: 149–51, and Kornfilt, Chapter 9 below).

Abstract:
DISTANCE protocols and MIKE Survey Standards were used in the field to determine Critically Endangered (CR) (A2c) Sumatran elephant (Elephas maximus sumatranus) occupancy, density and abundance in Gunung Leuser National Park (GLNP). Forest and habitat type, age, character, and integrity were the most significant factors affecting elephant occupancy. Principal forage types relative to elephant activity were palms and lianas, which dominated significantly in undisturbed primary forest. DISTANCE model density D=0.167 elephants/km-2 (95% CI=0.106–0.262), best-fitting occupancy Ψ=0.6321 (SE±0.0010) and detection probability p=0.6225 (SE±0.0001) estimates combined yielded N=407 elephants (95% CI: 258–638) in GLNP. The most parsimonious occupancy model estimated N=392.82 elephants (SE:±30.65; 95% CI: 332.78-452.95) in GLNP. Forest restoration, ecosystem protections, and conservation plans for Asian elephants, biodiversity, and forests are suggested in this study.

Abstract:
Abstract Bacterial viruses specific for the genus Listeria were discovered almost 60 years ago (57), and were early reported for their usefulness in phage typing (61) of isolates of the pathogen Listeria monocytogenes (65). In the following years, phage typing of Listeria isolates has proven to be a very useful method, and led to the isolation of more than 400 phages for L. monocytogenes, L. ivanovii, and the nonpathogenic species L. innocua, L. seeligeri, and L. welshimeri (5, 9, 16, 19, 22, 25, 26, 31^33, 48^51, 53, 55, 63). To date, no phages infecting organisms of the species L. grayi have been found. This chapter briefly summarizes our present knowledge on Listeria phages, and gives an overview on their general and particular properties, with respect to both the basic science and the various practical applications.

Abstract:
Starting with the Iliad, Agamemnon is mostly depicted at the centre of dramatic deliberative situations. This feature is also present in fifth-century literature, particularly in some plays in which Agamemnon’s decision-making ability in uncertainty comes into tension with other characters in order to determine the ‘right’ decision and adequate leadership features. In this paper, I will focus on the Euripides’ play Iphigenia in Aulis (405 a.C.). In this tragedy the behaviour of the Achaean king draws our attention, as he is not equipped to handle his role and responsibilities. In the same years, also historiography is interested in the nature and risks of the deliberative process, as Thucydides points out in relation to some key moments of the Peloponnesian War, specifically in the Mytilene debate.

Abstract:
Abstract Skarn deposits are one of the most common deposit types in China. The 386 skarns summarized in this review contain ~8.9 million tonnes (Mt) Sn (87% of China’s Sn resources), 6.6 Mt W (71%), 42 Mt Cu (32%), 81 Mt Zn-Pb (25%), 5.4 Mt Mo (17%), 1,871 tonnes (t) Au (11%), 42,212 t Ag (10%), and ~8,500 Mt Fe ore (~9%; major source of high-grade Fe ore). Some of the largest Sn, W, Mo, and Zn-Pb skarns are world-class. The abundance of skarns in China is related to a unique tectonic evolution that resulted in extensive hydrous magmas and widespread belts of carbonate country rocks. The landmass of China is composed of multiple blocks, some with Archean basements, and oceanic terranes that have amalgamated and rifted apart several times. Subduction and collisional events generated abundant hydrous fertile magmas. The events include subduction along the Rodinian margins, closures of the Proto-Tethys, Paleo-Asian, Paleo-Tethys, and Neo-Tethys Oceans, and subduction of the Paleo-Pacific plate. Extensive carbonate platforms developed on the passive margins of the cratonic blocks during multiple periods from Neoarchean to Holocene also facilitated skarn formation. There are 231 Ca skarns replacing limestone, 15 Ca skarns replacing igneous rocks, siliciclastic sedimentary rocks, or metamorphic silicate rocks, 113 Ca-Mg skarns replacing dolomitic limestone or interlayered dolomite and limestone, and 28 Mg skarns replacing dolomite in China. The Ca and Ca-Mg skarns host all types of metals, as do Mg skarns, except for major Cu and W mineralization. Boron mineralization only occurs in Mg skarns. The skarns typically include a high-temperature prograde stage, iron oxide-rich higher-temperature retrograde stage, sulfide-rich lower-temperature retrograde stage, and a latest barren carbonate stage. The zoning of garnet/pyroxene ratios depends on the redox state of both the causative magma and the wall rocks. In an oxidized magma-reduced wall-rock skarn system, such as is typical of Cu skarns in China, the garnet/pyroxene ratio decreases, and garnet color becomes lighter away from the intrusion. In a reduced intrusion-reduced wall-rock skarn system, such as a cassiterite- and sulfide-rich Sn skarn, the skarn is dominated by pyroxene with minor to no garnet. Manganese-rich skarn minerals may be abundant in distal skarns. Metal associations and endowment are largely controlled by the magma redox state and degree of fractionation and, in general, can be grouped into four categories. Within each category there is spatial zonation. The first category of deposits is associated with reduced and highly fractionated magma. They comprise (1) greisen with Sn ± W in intrusions, grading outward to (2) Sn ± Cu ± Fe at the contact zone, and farther out to (3) Sn (distal) and Zn-Pb (more distal) in veins, mantos, and chimneys. The second category is associated with oxidized and poorly to moderately fractionated magma. Ores include minor porphyry-style Mo and/or porphyry-style Cu mineralization ± Cu skarns replacing xenoliths or roof pendants inside intrusions, zoned outward to major zones of Cu and/or Fe ± Au ± Mo mineralization at the contact with and in adjacent country rocks, and farther out to local Cu (distal) + Zn-Pb (more distal) in veins, mantos, and chimneys. Oxidized and highly fractionated magma is associated with porphyry Mo or greisen W inside an intrusion, outward to Mo and/or W ± Fe ± Cu skarns at the contact zone, and farther to Mo or W ± Cu in distal veins, mantos, and chimneys. The final category is associated with reduced and poorly to moderately fractionated magma. No major skarns of this type have been recognized in China, but outside China there are many examples of such intrusions related to Au-only skarns at the contact zone. Reduced Zn-Au skarns in China are inferred to be distal parts of such systems. Tungsten and Sn do not occur together as commonly as was previously thought. The distal part of a skarn ore system may transition to carbonate replacement deposits. Distal stratabound mantos and crosscutting veins/chimneys may contain not only Zn-Pb but also major Sn, W, Cu, Mo, and Au mineralization. The Zn-Pb mineralization may be part of either an oxidized system (e.g., Cu, Mo, Fe) or a reduced system (e.g., Sn). In China, distal Zn-Pb is more commonly related to reduced magmas. Gold and W may also be related to both oxidized and reduced magmas, although in China they are more typically related to oxidized magma. There are numerous examples of distal mantos/chimneys that continuously transition to proximal skarns at intrusion-wall-rock contact zones, and this relationship strongly supports the magmatic affiliation of such deposits and suggests that distal skarns/carbonate replacement deposits systems should be explored to find more proximal mineralization. Carbonate xenoliths or roof pendants may host the majority of mineralization in some deposits. In contact zones, skarns are better developed where the intrusion shape is complicated. The above two skarn positions imply that there may be multiple skarn bodies below drill interceptions of intrusive rocks. Many of the largest skarns for all commodities in China are related to small or subsurface intrusions (except for Sn skarns), have multiple mineralization centers, are young (&lt;~160 Ma), and have the full system from causative intrusion(s) to distal skarns or carbonate replacement extensions discovered. Chinese skarn deposits fall in several age groups: ~830, ~480 to 420, ~383 to 371, ~324 to 314, ~263 to 210, ~200 to 83, ~80 to 72, and ~65 to 15 Ma. They are typically associated with convergent plate boundaries, mostly in subduction settings but also in collisional settings. Seven major skarn metallogenic belts are recognized based on skarn geographic location and geodynamic background. In subduction settings, skarns may form in a belt up to 4,000 km long and 1,000 km inland, with skarns continuously forming for up to 120 m.y., e.g., the eastern China belt. In most other belts, skarns form in 5- to 20-m.y. episodes similar to the situation in South America. In collisional settings, skarns may form up to 50 m.y. after an ocean closure, and the distance to the collisional/accretionary boundary may extend to ~150 km inland. The size of collision-related skarns may be as large as the largest skarns related to oceanic crust subduction. Older suture zones may be favorable sites for younger mineralization, for example, the Triassic Paleo-Tethys suture between the North and South China blocks for the younger and largest skarn cluster of the Middle-Lower Yangtze belt in the eastern China belt, and the Triassic sutures in southwestern China for Cretaceous to Tertiary mineralization.

Abstract:
This paper describes the progress made in developing an external ultra-low oxides of nitrogen (NOx) ‘Green Thumb’ combustor for the Allison Engine Company’s 501-K series engines. A lean premixed approach is being pursued to meet the emissions goals of 9 ppm NOx, 50 ppm carbon monoxide (CO), and 10 ppm unburned hydrocarbon (UHC). Several lean premixed (LPM) module configurations were identified computationally for the best NOx-CO trade-off by varying the location of fuel injection and the swirl angle of the module. These configurations were fabricated and screened under atmospheric conditions by direct visualization through a quartz liner; measurement of the stoichiometry at lean blow out (LBO); measurement of the fuel/air mixing efficiency at the module exit; and emissions measurements at the combustor exit, as well as velocity measurements. The influence of liner residence time on emissions was also examined. An LPM module featuring a radial inflow swirler demonstrated efficient fuel-air mixing and subsequent low NOx and CO production in extensive atmospheric bench and simulated engine testing. Measurements show the fuel concentration distribution at the module exit impacts the trade-off between NOx and CO emissions. The effect of varying the swirl angle of the module also has a similar effect with the gains in NOx emissions reduction being traded for increased CO emissions. A uniform fuel-air mixture (± 2.5% azimuthal variation) at the exit of the module yields low NOx (5–10 ppm) at inlet conditions of 1 MPa (∼10 atmospheres) and temperatures as high as 616 K (650°F). The combustion efficiency at the above conditions was also good (> 99.9%) with CO and UHC emissions below 76 ppm and 39 ppm, respectively. This LPM module was resistant to flashback, and stability was good as LBO was observed below ϕ = 0.50. Tests with multiple modules in a single liner indicate a strong intermodule interaction and show lower NOx and CO emissions. The close proximity of adjacent modules and lower confinement in the liner most likely reduces the size of the recirculation zone associated with each module, thereby reducing the NOx formed therein. The CO emissions are probably lowered due to the reduced cool liner surface area per module resulting when several modules feed into the same liner.

Abstract:
In 17 consecutive cadaveric kidney transplant recipients F VIII:C and vWFag were repeatedly determined before transplantation and during 4 months thereafter. Graft biopsy was performed in 12 patients for deterioration of renal function. F VIII:C was determined by a one stage clotting assay using F VIII:C deficient substrate plasma. vWFag was assayed by electroimmunoassay using specific rabbit anti-human vWFag antibodies. Results of F VIII:C and vWFag are expressed referring to NHP as 100%.Results: 2/17 patients lost their graft due to irreversible vascular rejection, 2/17 patients had reversible vascular rejection, 2/17 patients developped glomerulonephritis, 6/17 patients showed acute or chronic CyA nephrotoxicity. In 5/17 patients graft biopsy was not necessary. Despite normalisation of renal function (serum creatinine levels<150umol/L) in 9 out of 17 patients F VIII:C (239 ± 66% to 408 ± 74%, mean ± SD) remained elevated in all 17 patients. vWFag (181 ± 29% to 454 ± 84%) was normalised in only 2 out of 17 patients. CyA dosis and CyA blood levels were not correlated with F VIII:C and vWFag. All 4 patients with histological vascular rejection, both patients with later developping glomerulonephritis and 3 out of 6 patients with later developping CyA nephrotoxicity showed F VIII:C/vWFag quotients > 1 (1,1 to 1,3) Four out of 5 patients with well functioning graft had F VIII:C/ vWFag quotients consistently <1 (0,68 to 0,92).Conclusion: 1. The elevated F VIII:C and vWFag levels in chronic renal failure are not normalised during 4 months of observation despite normalisation of renal function by transplantation and immunosuppression with CyA.2. A quotient F VIII :C/vWFag < 1 may indicate a good prognosis for kidney allograft function in the absence of CyA nephrotoxicity whereas later developping graft rejection or glomerulonephritis were associated with F VIII:C/vWFag>1.

Abstract:
In this attempt effect of pipeline equipment behavior was considered on water hammer numerically. The effect includes opening / closing of the shut off valves, loss of coefficient of the outlet bypass pipe for the air chamber, elasticity of the pipeline and loss coefficient due to friction. In order to study the behavior, mass and momentum conservation equations were solved numerically using characteristic method during transient conditions. As a water hammer phenomena accompanies with large pressure gradient, so the pipeline equipment behavior and their effect were analyzed with respect to the maximum pressure occurrence. For a pipeline of 5000 m length, 1 m diameter, 1 m3/s discharge and 100 m height between upstream and downstream, the following result were concluded: 1-If the moment of inertia of the pump impeller increases by 400 percent, the maximum pressure occurred by the water hammer will decrease by 9 percent. 2-During on and off of the shut off valve, 80 percent of pressure increase due to water hammer was created during the last 15 percent of valve closure. 3-If pressure wave velocity increases by 75 percent, then the maximum pressure generated due to the water hammer will increase by 27 percent. 4-If the loss coefficient of the by pass line of the air chamber decreases by 90 percent, then the maximum pressure due to the water hammer will decrease by 20 percent. 5-If the pipeline Moody friction coefficient increases by 92 percent, the maximum pressure due to the water hammer will increase by 66 percent.

Abstract:
Touqui et al (1986) have suggested that phosphorylation by protein kinase C of a 1ipomodulin-1 ike polypeptide extracted from platelets renders it inactive as an inhibitor of phospholipase A2. We have examined this suggestion by measuring thromboxane (Tx) B2 generation and cytosolic free calcium concentration ([Ca++]i) in stimulated, washed human platelets loaded with or without quin-2. Addition of thrombin (0.077, 0.23, 0.77, 2.3 and 7.7 nM) to control platelets produces a dose-related elevation of [Ca++]i (10±5, 50±7, 260±30, 550±25 and 1500±100 nM respectively) and generation of TxB2 (0, 9±4, 45±6, 194±10 and 375±30 pmoles/108 platelets respectively). Preincubation of platelets for 1 min with 1-oleoyl-2-acetyl-rac-glycerol (OAG, 22-198 μM), phorbol myristate acetate (PMA, 1.616 nM) or EGTA (2 mM) produces a marked inhibition of high and low dose thrombin (7.7 nM and 0.77 nM) or NaF (18 mM) induced elevation of [Ca++]i and TxB2 generation. Pretreatment of platelets with the protein kinase C inhibitor, H-7 (60 uM), prevented the inhibition of TxB2 formation induced by PMA (4.816 nM) or OAG (66-198 μM) in either thrombin (0.77 nM) or NaF (18 mM) stimulated platelets. When arachidonic acid (AA, 10 μM) is used as the stimulus, the Δ[Ca++]i is 190±15 nM and TxB2 generation is 35.9±2 pmoles/108 platelets. While pretreatment with 4.8 nM PMA obliterates the AA-induced Δ[Ca++]i and partially reduces (p< 0.05) the TxB2 generation to 27.8+3 pmoles/108 platelets. PMA and OAG pretreatment also inhibits TxB2 generation in thrombin-stimulated, non-quin-2-1oaded platelets. Thus, at least with intact, agonist- and NaF-stimulated platelets, activation of protein kinase C inhibits eicosanoid production.We thank the British Heart Foundation and Ciba-Geigy USA for financial support.

Abstract:
ЦЕЛЬ: представить клинический случай пациента с остеопорозом на фоне первичного гиперпаратиреоза вследствие дистопии паращитовидной железы (ПЩЖ) с сохраняющейся гиперкальциурией после хирургического лечения. МАТЕРИАЛЫ И МЕТОДЫ: пациентка 63 лет обратилась с жалобами на боли в костях. В анамнезе хронический гастрит, артериальная гипертензия. Менопауза с 51 года. МКБ и переломы в анамнезе отрицала. При проведении денситометрии выявлен остеопороз (Ткр –4,4 L2), при нормальном уровне кальция, фосфора, креатинина, пациентке были назначены бисфосфонаты, кальций 1000 мг и вит Д 2000 Ед/сутки, которые принимала 2 года. Через 2 года обратилась для контроля. РЕЗУЛЬТАТЫ: наблюдалась положительная динамика денситометрии (Ткр – 3,1 L2), однако выявлен повышенный уровень кальция общего 2,58 (2,25-2,55) ммоль/л и паратгормона 165 (10-65) пг/мл, кальциурия 11,5 (2,5-7,5) ммоль/сутки при сниженном уровне витамина Д 26. Фосфор, щелочная фосфатаза, креатинин и скорость клубочковой фильтрации находились в пределах референсных значений. Сцинтиграфия ПЩЖ не выявила признаков трансформации ПЩЖ. Гиперпаратиреоз был расценен как вторичный на фоне недостаточности витамина Д. Дальнейшее наблюдение пациентки состоялось через год. Выявлена отрицательная динамика денситометрии (Ткр – 3,8 L2), уровень кальция ионизированного и паратгормона нарастали (1,64 ммоль/л и 867 пг/мл соответственно). Проведена повторная сцинтиграфия ПЩЖ – на уровне тела 1 грудного позвонка превертебрально, срединноретротрахеально и антевертебрально выявлена аденоматозная трансформация дистопированной ПЩЖ 8*9 мм. Проведено удаление верхней левой ПЩЖ с опухолью, гистологически в присланном материале обнаружена ткань щит железы с зобом. Спустя 3 месяца сохранялся повышенный уровень кальция 2,69 ммоль/л, кальция ионизированного 1,4 ммоль/л, паратгормона 150 пг/мл, витамин Д 34. Повторная сцинтиграфия указала на сохраняющуюся метаболически активную структуру на границе 1 и 2 грудных позвонков, после чего была проведена повторная операция - удаление дистопированной ПЩЖ. Отмечалась нормализация показателей: паратгормон 49,3 пг/мл, кальций ионизированный 1,14 ммоль/л, витамин Д 40, положительная динамика денситометрии через год – прирост + 4,8% (Ткр -2,8 L2). Однако сохраняется гиперкальциурия - кальций суточной мочи 10 ммоль/сутки при нормальных значениях уровня кальция 2,48 ммоль/л, паратгормона 57 пг/мл и витамина Д 39, что требует проведения дифференциально-диагностических проб и уточнения причины гиперкальциурии. ВЫВОДЫ: важным этапом диагностики и лечения остеопороза является исключение вторичных форм, являющихся следствием различных патологических состояний и заболеваний. Успешность этого процесса во многом определяется информированностью врачей различных специальностей (в первую очередь эндокринологов) и возможностью длительного наблюдения за пациентом.

Abstract:
Invasive exotic plant (IEP) species are a significant threat to natural ecosystem integrity and biodiversity, and controlling them is a high priority for the National Park Service. The Northern Colorado Plateau Network (NCPN) selected the early detection of IEPs as one of 11 monitoring protocols to be implemented as part of its long-term monitoring program. This report represents work completed at Colorado National Monument during 2021. During monitoring conducted June 9–15, a total of 15 priority IEP species in 395 patches were detected on 53.6 kilometers (33.3 mi) of monitoring routes. An additional four species were detected in transects. Yellow salsify (Tragopogon dubius), ripgut brome (Anisantha diandra), jointed goatgrass (Cylindropyrum cylindricum), and tamarisk (Tamarix sp.) were the most commonly detected priority IEPs along monitoring routes, representing 74% of all priority patches. Except for ripgut brome and broad-leaf pepperwort (Cardaria latifolia), most patches of priority IEPs were than 40 m2. Ninety-five percent of tree patches were classified as seedlings or saplings, which require less effort to control than mature trees. Cheatgrass (Anisantha tectorum) was the most common IEP in transects, found in >63% of transects along every route surveyed. When segments of monitoring routes consistently surveyed from 2005 to 2021 were analyzed, Red Canyon, Wedding Canyon, and Fruita Canyon all had the highest number of IEPs per 100 meters during the entire monitoring period. Increases were driven by increases in jointed goatgrass on all three routes and yellow salsify (Tragopogon dubius) in Wedding Canyon and tamarisk in Red Canyon. Jointed goatgrass appears to be rapidly expanding, increasing from 8 patches in 2019 to 42 patches in 2021 (though the routes surveyed were not all the same). In addition, three species not seen in recent years—Canada thistle (Breea arvensis), bull thistle (Cirsium vulgare), and broad-leaf pepperwort—were detected, but in fewer than 10 patches each. These species should be prioritized for control. The No Thoroughfare, Ute Canyon, and Monument Canyon routes all have stayed relatively stable over time, but at least one patch of jointed goatgrass was found on each. Network staff plans to return to re-sample monitoring routes in 2023.

Abstract:
Objectives. To update the evidence on benefits and harms of cannabinoids and similar plant-based compounds to treat chronic pain using a living systematic review approach. Data sources. Ovid® MEDLINE®, PsycINFO®, Embase®, the Cochrane Library, and SCOPUS® databases; reference lists of included studies; and submissions received after Federal Register request were searched to October 24, 2022. Review methods. Using dual review, we screened search results for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and observational studies of patients with chronic pain evaluating cannabis, kratom, and similar compounds with any comparison group and at least 1 month of treatment or followup. Dual review was used to abstract study data, assess study-level risk of bias, and rate the strength of evidence (SOE). Prioritized outcomes included pain, overall function, and adverse events. We grouped studies that assessed tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and/or cannabidiol (CBD) based on their THC to CBD ratio and categorized them as comparable THC to CBD ratio, high-THC to CBD ratio, and low-THC to CBD ratio. We also grouped studies by whether the product was a whole-plant product (cannabis), cannabinoids extracted or purified from a whole plant, or a synthetic product. We conducted meta-analyses using the profile likelihood random effects model and assessed between-study heterogeneity using Cochran’s Q statistic chi square test and the I2 statistic. Magnitude of benefit was categorized as no effect or small, moderate, and large effects. Results. From a total of 3,568 abstracts, 21 RCTs (N=1,905) and 9 observational studies (N=15,079) assessing different cannabinoids were included; none evaluated kratom. Studies were primarily short term, and 60 percent enrolled patients with neuropathic pain. Comparators were primarily placebo or usual care. The SOE was low unless otherwise noted. Compared with placebo, comparable THC to CBD ratio oral spray was associated with a small benefit in pain severity (7 RCTs, N=632, 0 to 10 scale, mean difference [MD] −0.54, 95% confidence interval [CI] −0.95 to −0.19, I2=39%; SOE: moderate) and overall function (6 RCTs, N=616, 0 to 10 scale, MD −0.42, 95% CI −0.73 to −0.16, I2=32%). There was no effect on study withdrawals due to adverse events. There was a large increased risk of dizziness and sedation, and a moderate increased risk of nausea (dizziness: 6 RCTs, N=866, 31.0% vs. 8.0%, relative risk [RR] 3.57, 95% CI 2.42 to 5.60, I2=0%; sedation: 6 RCTs, N=866, 8.0% vs. 1.2%, RR 5.04, 95% CI 2.10 to 11.89, I2=0%; and nausea: 6 RCTs, N=866, 13% vs. 7.5%, RR 1.79, 95% CI 1.19 to 2.77, I2=0%). Synthetic products with high-THC to CBD ratios were associated with a moderate improvement in pain severity, a moderate increase in sedation, and a large increase in nausea (pain: 6 RCTs, N=390, 0 to 10 scale, MD −1.15, 95% CI −1.99 to −0.54, I2=48%; sedation: 3 RCTs, N=335, 19% vs. 10%, RR 1.73, 95% CI 1.03 to 4.63, I2=28%; nausea: 2 RCTs, N=302, 12.3% vs. 6.1%, RR 2.19, 95% CI 0.77 to 5.39; I²=0%). We also found moderate SOE for a large increased risk of dizziness (2 RCTs, 32% vs. 11%, RR 2.74, 95% CI 1.47 to 6.86, I2=40%). Extracted whole-plant products with high-THC to CBD ratios (oral) were associated with a large increased risk of study withdrawal due to adverse events (1 RCT, 13.9% vs. 5.7%, RR 3.12, 95% CI 1.54 to 6.33) and dizziness (1 RCT, 62.2% vs. 7.5%, RR 8.34, 95% CI 4.53 to 15.34); outcomes assessing benefit were not reported or insufficient. We observed a moderate improvement in pain severity when combining all studies of high-THC to CBD ratio (8 RCTs, N=684, MD −1.25, 95% CI −2.09 to −0.71, I2=58%; SOE: moderate). Evidence (including observational studies) on whole-plant cannabis, topical or oral CBD, low-THC to CBD, other cannabinoids, comparisons with active products or between cannabis-related products, and impact on use of opioids was insufficient to draw conclusions. Other important harms (psychosis, cannabis use disorder, and cognitive effects) were not reported. Conclusions. Low to moderate strength evidence suggests small to moderate improvements in pain (mostly neuropathic), and moderate to large increases in common adverse events (dizziness, sedation, nausea) with high and comparable THC to CBD ratio extracted cannabinoids and synthetic products during short-term treatment (1 to 6 months); high-THC to CBD ratio products were also associated with increased risk of withdrawal due to adverse events. Evidence for whole-plant cannabis and other comparisons, outcomes, and plant-based compounds was unavailable or insufficient to draw conclusions. Small sample sizes, lack of evidence for moderate and long-term use and other key outcomes, such as other adverse events and impact on use of opioids during treatment, indicate that more research is needed.

Abstract:
Objectives. Diagnostic errors are a known patient safety concern across all clinical settings, including the emergency department (ED). We conducted a systematic review to determine the most frequent diseases and clinical presentations associated with diagnostic errors (and resulting harms) in the ED, measure error and harm frequency, as well as assess causal factors. Methods. We searched PubMed®, Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature (CINAHL®), and Embase® from January 2000 through September 2021. We included research studies and targeted grey literature reporting diagnostic errors or misdiagnosis-related harms in EDs in the United States or other developed countries with ED care deemed comparable by a technical expert panel. We applied standard definitions for diagnostic errors, misdiagnosis-related harms (adverse events), and serious harms (permanent disability or death). Preventability was determined by original study authors or differences in harms across groups. Two reviewers independently screened search results for eligibility; serially extracted data regarding common diseases, error/harm rates, and causes/risk factors; and independently assessed risk of bias of included studies. We synthesized results for each question and extrapolated U.S. estimates. We present 95 percent confidence intervals (CIs) or plausible range (PR) bounds, as appropriate. Results. We identified 19,127 citations and included 279 studies. The top 15 clinical conditions associated with serious misdiagnosis-related harms (accounting for 68% [95% CI 66 to 71] of serious harms) were (1) stroke, (2) myocardial infarction, (3) aortic aneurysm and dissection, (4) spinal cord compression and injury, (5) venous thromboembolism, (6/7 – tie) meningitis and encephalitis, (6/7 – tie) sepsis, (8) lung cancer, (9) traumatic brain injury and traumatic intracranial hemorrhage, (10) arterial thromboembolism, (11) spinal and intracranial abscess, (12) cardiac arrhythmia, (13) pneumonia, (14) gastrointestinal perforation and rupture, and (15) intestinal obstruction. Average disease-specific error rates ranged from 1.5 percent (myocardial infarction) to 56 percent (spinal abscess), with additional variation by clinical presentation (e.g., missed stroke average 17%, but 4% for weakness and 40% for dizziness/vertigo). There was also wide, superimposed variation by hospital (e.g., missed myocardial infarction 0% to 29% across hospitals within a single study). An estimated 5.7 percent (95% CI 4.4 to 7.1) of all ED visits had at least one diagnostic error. Estimated preventable adverse event rates were as follows: any harm severity (2.0%, 95% CI 1.0 to 3.6), any serious harms (0.3%, PR 0.1 to 0.7), and deaths (0.2%, PR 0.1 to 0.4). While most disease-specific error rates derived from mainly U.S.-based studies, overall error and harm rates were derived from three prospective studies conducted outside the United States (in Canada, Spain, and Switzerland, with combined n=1,758). If overall rates are generalizable to all U.S. ED visits (130 million, 95% CI 116 to 144), this would translate to 7.4 million (PR 5.1 to 10.2) ED diagnostic errors annually; 2.6 million (PR 1.1 to 5.2) diagnostic adverse events with preventable harms; and 371,000 (PR 142,000 to 909,000) serious misdiagnosis-related harms, including more than 100,000 permanent, high-severity disabilities and 250,000 deaths. Although errors were often multifactorial, 89 percent (95% CI 88 to 90) of diagnostic error malpractice claims involved failures of clinical decision-making or judgment, regardless of the underlying disease present. Key process failures were errors in diagnostic assessment, test ordering, and test interpretation. Most often these were attributed to inadequate knowledge, skills, or reasoning, particularly in “atypical” or otherwise subtle case presentations. Limitations included use of malpractice claims and incident reports for distribution of diseases leading to serious harms, reliance on a small number of non-U.S. studies for overall (disease-agnostic) diagnostic error and harm rates, and methodologic variability across studies in measuring disease-specific rates, determining preventability, and assessing causal factors. Conclusions. Although estimated ED error rates are low (and comparable to those found in other clinical settings), the number of patients potentially impacted is large. Not all diagnostic errors or harms are preventable, but wide variability in diagnostic error rates across diseases, symptoms, and hospitals suggests improvement is possible. With 130 million U.S. ED visits, estimated rates for diagnostic error (5.7%), misdiagnosis-related harms (2.0%), and serious misdiagnosis-related harms (0.3%) could translate to more than 7 million errors, 2.5 million harms, and 350,000 patients suffering potentially preventable permanent disability or death. Over two-thirds of serious harms are attributable to just 15 diseases and linked to cognitive errors, particularly in cases with “atypical” manifestations. Scalable solutions to enhance bedside diagnostic processes are needed, and these should target the most commonly misdiagnosed clinical presentations of key diseases causing serious harms. New studies should confirm overall rates are representative of current U.S.-based ED practice and focus on identified evidence gaps (errors among common diseases with lower-severity harms, pediatric ED errors and harms, dynamic systems factors such as overcrowding, and false positives). Policy changes to consider based on this review include: (1) standardizing measurement and research results reporting to maximize comparability of measures of diagnostic error and misdiagnosis-related harms; (2) creating a National Diagnostic Performance Dashboard to track performance; and (3) using multiple policy levers (e.g., research funding, public accountability, payment reforms) to facilitate the rapid development and deployment of solutions to address this critically important patient safety concern.
