Abstract
Objective.To develop and validate a dose-of-the-day (DOTD) treatment plan verification procedure for liver and pancreas cancer patients treated with an magnetic resonance (MR)-Linac system.Approach.DOTD was implemented as an automated process that uses 3D datasets collected during treatment delivery. Particularly, the DOTD pipeline's input included the adapt-to-shape (ATS) plan-i.e. 3D-MR dataset acquired at beginning of online session, anatomical contours, dose distribution-and 3D-MR dataset acquired during beam-on (BON). The DOTD automated analysis included (a) ATS-to-BON image intensity-based deformable image registration (DIR), (b) ATS-to-BON contours mapping via DIR, (c) BON-to-ATS contours copying through rigid registration, (d) determining ATS-to-BON dosimetric differences, and (e) PDF report generation. The DIR process was validated by two expert reviewers. ATS-plans were recomputed on BON datasets to assess dose differences. DOTD analysis was performed retrospectively for 75 treatment fractions (12-liver and 5-pancreas patients).Main results.The accuracy of DOTD process relied on DIR and mapped contours quality. Most DIR-generated contours (99.6%) were clinically acceptable. DICE correlated with depreciation of DIR-based region of interest mapping process. The ATS-BON plan difference was found negligible (<1%). The duodenum and large bowel exhibited highest variations, 24% and 39% from fractional values, for 5-fraction liver and pancreas. For liver 1-fraction, a 62% variation was observed for duodenum.Significance.The DOTD methodology provides an automated approach to quantify 3D dosimetric differences between online plans and their delivery. This analysis offers promise as a valuable tool for plan quality assessment and decision-making in the verification stage of the online workflow.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The incidence of esophageal and gastric carcinoma (GEC) in elderly patients is increasing, yet patients ≥75 years have historically been underrepresented in clinical trials. We sought to investigate palliative chemotherapy administration patterns and survival outcomes in older adults. MATERIALS AND METHODS A retrospective analysis identified patients aged 65-74 (young-old) and ≥75 years (older-old) diagnosed with advanced GEC. Patient and tumor characteristics were recorded, with descriptive analysis, time-to-event data analysis using Kaplan-Meier curves and multivariate Cox proportional hazards regression analysis performed. RESULTS One hundred and ninety-eight "young-old" and 109 'older-old' patients were identified. Patient characteristics were similar between groups except for Charlson Co-morbidity Index (CCI), with lower co-morbidities in the "young-old" compared to "older-old" cohort (P < .001; CCI = 0 in 103 (52%) "young-old" vs 31 (28%) "older-old"). The primary diagnosis in both groups was adenocarcinoma. 119 (60%) "young-old" and 25 (23%) "older-old" patients received chemotherapy (P < .001). Performance status was the primary explanation for chemotherapy non-receipt in both cohorts; age was the explanation in 21 (25%) "older-old" patients and none in the "young-old" patients. PFS for first-line systemic therapy in "young-old" patients was 6.4 (95% CI 5.9-7.6) versus 7.5 months (95% CI 5.1-11.3) in "older-old" patients (P = .69) whilst respective OS was 12.3 (95% CI 10.1-15.5) and 10.4 months (95% CI 9.0-14.6) (P = .0816). Toxicity prompted chemotherapy cessation in 17 (15%) "young-old" and 3 (13%) "older-old" patients (P = .97). Multivariate analysis identified CCI and ECOG performance status as predictive for PFS and OS, respectively. No causative relationship was identified with other variables. CONCLUSION Our study of real-world older-adults show that significant number of "older-old" patients with GEC do not receive chemotherapy. Among "older-old" adults who do receive systemic therapy, outcomes are comparable; this underscores the importance of geriatric assessment-guided care and suggests that age alone should not be a barrier to receipt of chemotherapy in patients with advanced GEC.

Non-additive effects of electrical stimulation of the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex and the vestibular system on muscle sympathetic nerve activity in humans. Exp Brain Res 2024; 242:1773-1786. [PMID: 38822824 PMCID: PMC11208219 DOI: 10.1007/s00221-024-06852-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/09/2024] [Accepted: 05/11/2024] [Indexed: 06/03/2024]
Abstract
Sinusoidal galvanic vestibular stimulation (sGVS) induces robust modulation of muscle sympathetic nerve activity (MSNA) alongside perceptions of side-to-side movement, sometimes with an accompanying feeling of nausea. We recently showed that transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS) of the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (dlPFC) also modulates MSNA, but does not generate any perceptions. Here, we tested the hypothesis that when the two stimuli are given concurrently, the modulation of MSNA would be additive. MSNA was recorded from 11 awake participants via a tungsten microelectrode inserted percutaneously into the right common peroneal nerve at the fibular head. Sinusoidal stimuli (± 2 mA, 0.08 Hz, 100 cycles) were applied in randomised order as follows: (i) tACS of the dlPFC at electroencephalogram (EEG) site F4 and referenced to the nasion; (ii) bilateral sGVS applied to the vestibular apparatuses via the mastoid processes; and (iii) tACS and sGVS together. Previously obtained data from 12 participants supplemented the data for stimulation protocols (i) and (ii). Cross-correlation analysis revealed that each stimulation protocol caused significant modulation of MSNA (modulation index (paired data): 35.2 ± 19.4% for sGVS; 27.8 ± 15.2% for tACS), but there were no additive effects when tACS and sGVS were delivered concurrently (32.1 ± 18.5%). This implies that the vestibulosympathetic reflexes are attenuated with concurrent dlPFC stimulation. These results suggest that the dlPFC is capable of blocking the processing of vestibular inputs through the brainstem and, hence, the generation of vestibulosympathetic reflexes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Colorectal cancer (CRC) incidence and mortality rates have been increasing among young patients (YP), for uncertain reasons. It is unclear whether YP have a distinct tumor biology or merit a different treatment approach to older patients (OP). METHODS We reviewed prospectively collected data from consecutive patients with metastatic CRC (MCRC) enrolled in the multi-site Treatment of Recurrent and Advanced Colorectal Cancer (TRACC) Australian registry. Clinicopathological features, treatment and survival outcomes were compared between YP (<50 years) and OP (≥50 years). RESULTS Of 3692 patients diagnosed August 2009 - March 2023, 14 % (513) were YP. YP were more likely than OP to be female (52% vs. 40 %, P < 0.0001), have ECOG performance status 0-1 (94% vs. 81 %, P < 0.0001), to have a left-sided primary (72% vs. 63 %, P = 0.0008) and to have fewer comorbidities (90% vs. 60 % Charleston score 0, P < 0.0001). There were no differences in the available molecular status, which was more complete in YP. YP were more likely to have de novo metastatic disease (71% vs. 57 %, P < 0.0001). YP were more likely to undergo curative hepatic resection (27% vs. 17 %, P < 0.0001), to receive any chemotherapy (93% vs. 78 % (P < 0.0001), and to receive 3+ lines of chemotherapy (30% vs. 24 % (P < 0.0034)). Median first-line progression free survival (10.2 versus 10.6 months) was similar for YP vs OP, but overall survival (32.1 versus 25.4 months, HR = 0.745, P < 0.0001) was longer in YP. CONCLUSION Known prognostic variables mostly favored YP versus OP with newly diagnosed mCRC, who were also more heavily treated. Consistent with this, overall survival outcomes were improved. This data does not support that CRC in YP represent a distinct subset of mCRC patients, or that a modified treatment approach is warranted.

Abstract
Positron emission tomography/magnetic resonance (PET/MR) imaging has gone through major hardware improvements in recent years, making it a reliable state-of-the-art hybrid modality in clinical practice. At the same time, image reconstruction, attenuation correction, and motion correction algorithms have significantly evolved to provide high-quality images. Part I of the current review discusses technical basics, pre-clinical applications, and clinical applications of PET/MR in radiation oncology and head and neck imaging. PET/MR offers a broad range of advantages in preclinical and clinical imaging. In the preclinic, small and large animal-dedicated devices were developed, making PET/MR capable of delivering new insight into animal models in diseases and facilitating the development of methods that inform clinical PET/MR. Regarding PET/MR's clinical applications in radiation medicine, PET and MR already play crucial roles in the radiotherapy process. Their combination is particularly significant as it can provide molecular and morphological characteristics that are not achievable with other modalities. In addition, the integration of PET/MR information for therapy planning with linear accelerators is expected to provide potentially unique biomarkers for treatment guidance. Furthermore, in clinical applications in the head and neck region, it has been shown that PET/MR can be an accurate modality in head and neck malignancies for staging and resectability assessment. Also, it can play a crucial role in diagnosing residual or recurrent diseases, reliably distinguishing from oedema and fibrosis. PET/MR can furthermore help with tumour characterization and patient prognostication. Lastly, in head and neck carcinoma of unknown origin, PET/MR, with its diagnostic potential, may obviate multiple imaging sessions in the near future.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Brain metastasis (BrM) and Leptomeningeal Carcinomatosis (LMC) are uncommon complications in gastroesophageal carcinoma (GEC) patients. These patients have a poor prognosis and are challenging to treat. We described the clinicopathologic features and outcomes in the largest cohort of Central Nervous System (CNS) metastasis in GEC patients. METHODS single-center retrospective study of GEC treated from 2007 to 2021. Clinicopathologic characteristics and treatment modalities were reviewed. Survival was calculated from the date of CNS diagnosis until date of death/last follow-up using the Kaplan-Meier method. A multivariable Cox proportional hazards regression model was used. RESULTS Of 3283 GEC patients, 100 (3.04%) were diagnosed with BrM and 20 with LMC (0.61%). Patients with known human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) status (N = 48), 60% were HER2 positive (defined as IHC 3 + or IHC 2+/FISH+). Among LMC patients most were signet-ring subtype (85%), and only 15% (2/13) were HER2 positive. Median survival was 0.7; 3.8; and 7.7 months in BrM patients treated with best supportive care, radiation, and surgery, respectively (p < 0.001). In LMC, median survival was 0.7 month in patients who had best supportive care (7/19) and 2.8 months for those who had whole brain radiation therapy (p = 0.015). Multivariate analysis showed worse outcomes in ECOG ≥ 2 (p = 0.002), number of BrM ≥ 4 (p < 0.001) and number of metastatic sites (p = 0.009). CONCLUSION HER2 expression were enriched in patients with BrM, while it is uncommon in LMC. Patients treated with surgery followed by radiation had an improved OS in BrM and WBRT benefited patients with LMC.

Abstract
AIMS Prior research indicates that neighbourhood disadvantage increases dementia risk. There is, however, inconclusive evidence on the relationship between nativity and cognitive impairment. To our knowledge, our study is the first to analyse how nativity and neighbourhood interact to influence dementia risk. METHODS Ten years of prospective cohort data (2011-2020) were retrieved from the National Health and Aging Trends Study, a nationally representative sample of 5,362 U.S. older adults aged 65+. Cox regression analysed time to dementia diagnosis using nativity status (foreign- or native-born) and composite scores for neighbourhood physical disorder (litter, graffiti and vacancies) and social cohesion (know, help and trust each other), after applying sampling weights and imputing missing data. RESULTS In a weighted sample representing 26.9 million older adults, about 9.5% (n = 2.5 million) identified as foreign-born and 24.4% (n = 6.5 million) had an incident dementia diagnosis. Average baseline neighbourhood physical disorder was 0.19 (range 0-9), and baseline social cohesion was 4.28 (range 0-6). Baseline neighbourhood physical disorder was significantly higher among foreign-born (mean = 0.28) compared to native-born (mean = 0.18) older adults (t = -2.4, p = .02). Baseline neighbourhood social cohesion was significantly lower for foreign-born (mean = 3.57) compared to native-born (mean = 4.33) older adults (t = 5.5, p < .001). After adjusting for sociodemographic, health and neighbourhood variables, foreign-born older adults had a 51% significantly higher dementia risk (adjusted hazard ratio = 1.51, 95% CI = 1.19-1.90, p < .01). There were no significant interactions for nativity with neighbourhood physical disorder or social cohesion. CONCLUSIONS Our findings suggest that foreign-born older adults have higher neighbourhood physical disorder and lower social cohesion compared to native-born older adults. Despite the higher dementia risk, we observed for foreign-born older adults, and this relationship was not moderated by either neighbourhood physical disorder or social cohesion. Further research is needed to understand what factors are contributing to elevated dementia risk among foreign-born older adults.

Abstract
PURPOSE Sympathetic nerve activity towards muscle (MSNA) and skin (SSNA) regulates various physiological parameters. MSNA primarily functions in blood pressure and flow, while SSNA operates in thermoregulation. Physical and cognitive stressors have been shown to have effects on both types of sympathetic activity, but there are inconsistencies as to what these effects are. This article aims to address the discrepancies in the literature and compare MSNA and SSNA responses. METHODS Microelectrode recordings were taken from the common peroneal nerve in 29 participants: MSNA (n = 21), SSNA (n = 16) and both MSNA and SSNA (n = 8). Participants were subjected to four different 2-min stressors: two physical (isometric handgrip task, cold pressor test) and two cognitive (mental arithmetic task, Stroop colour-word conflict test), the latter of which saw participants separated into responders and non-responders to the stressors. It was hypothesised that the physical stressors would have a greater effect on MSNA than SSNA, while the cognitive stressors would operate conversely. RESULTS Peristimulus time histogram (PSTH) analysis showed the mental arithmetic task to significantly increase both MSNA and SSNA; the isometric handgrip task and cold pressor test to increase MSNA, but not SSNA; and Stroop test to have no significant effects on changing MSNA or SSNA from baseline. Additionally, stress responses did not differ between MSNA and SSNA in participants who had both sets of data recorded. CONCLUSIONS This study has provided evidence to support the literature which claims cognitive stressors increase sympathetic activity, and provides much needed SSNA data in response to stressors.

Abstract
PURPOSE Head and neck cancers (HNCs) are the third most commonly treated cancer with radiation in Ethiopia. Most patients present with advanced stage and are not candidates for curative treatment. The objective of our study is to assess the outcome of hypofractionated palliative radiotherapy (RT) for advanced HNCs in a resource-limited setting. MATERIALS AND METHODS Patients with histology-proven advanced HNC candidates for hypofractionated palliative RT were enrolled. Three regimens were allowed: 44.4 Gy in 12 fractions, 30 Gy in 10 fractions, and 20 Gy in five fractions. Response to treatment was assessed at baseline and at 4 weeks after treatment completion. The Kaplan-Meier curve was used to measure the survival. RESULTS Between January 2022 and January 2023, 52 patients were enrolled and 25 patients were eligible for outcome assessment. Index symptoms include pain, bleeding, dysphagia, respiratory distress, and others in 25, 13, 10, 6, and 17 patients, respectively. Complete relief of the top three symptoms include pain in 52% of patients, hemostasis in 84% of patients, and dysphagia in 30% of patients. Objectively, 64% of patients attained partial response. For 48% of patients, their quality of life (QoL) improved in one parameter of the physical scores. Moreover, 64% of patients showed improvement in three parameters. The global functional score improved in 80% of patients. One patient had grade 3 xerostomia. At the end of the study period, 44% of patients died. The median survival after radiation was 9 months (95% CI, 7.2 to 10.8). CONCLUSION All palliative hypofractionated regimens used were effective in terms of symptom control, tumor response rate, and QoL, and were well tolerated. This makes it appropriate for our setup because the majority of patients require palliation.

Abstract
The vestibular apparatus provides spatial information on the position of the head in space and with respect to gravity. Low-frequency sinusoidal galvanic vestibular stimulation (sGVS), a means of selectively changing the firing of vestibular afferents, induces a frequency-dependent perception of sway and, in some individuals, induces nausea. Given that vestibular afferents project to the insular cortex-which forms part of the vestibular cortex-and that the insula receives inputs from the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (dlPFC), we tested the hypothesis that electrical stimulation of the dlPFC can modulate vestibular inputs. Sinusoidal electrical stimulation (± 2 mA, 0.08 Hz, 100 cycles) was delivered via surface electrodes over (1) the mastoid processes alone (sGVS), (2) electroencephalogram (EEG) site F4 (right dlPFC) and the nasion or (3) to each site concurrently (sGVS + dlPFC) in 23 participants. The same stimulation protocol was used in a separate study to investigate EEG site F3 (left dlPFC) instead of F4 in 13 participants. During sGVS, all participants reported perceptions of sway and 13 participants also reported nausea, neither sensation of which occurred as a result of dlPFC stimulation. Interestingly, when sGVS and dlPFC stimulations were delivered concurrently, vestibular perceptions and sensations of nausea were almost completely abolished. We conclude that the dlPFC provides top-down control of vestibular inputs and further suggests that dlPFC stimulation may provide a novel means of controlling nausea.

Abstract
BACKGROUND People with intellectual disability have a high risk of falls and falls-related injuries. Although people with intellectual disability are at increased risk of falls, there is a need to better understand the efficacy of interventions that can help reduce falls and address risk factors in this population. This systematic review aimed to evaluate the type, nature and effectiveness of interventions undertaken to reduce falls with community-dwelling adults with intellectual disability and the quality of this evidence. METHOD Four electronic databases were searched: Ovid MEDLINE, PsycINFO, CINAHL Plus and the Cochrane Library. Studies were included if they involved people aged 18 years or over, at least 50% of study participants had intellectual disability, participants were community-dwelling, and the study evaluated any interventions aiming to reduce falls. Study quality was assessed using the National Institutes of Health study quality assessment tools. Reporting of the review followed Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. RESULTS Seven studies were eligible for review, with a total of 286 participants and mean age of 50.4 years. As only one randomised trial was identified, a narrative synthesis of results was undertaken. Five studies evaluated exercise interventions, one evaluated a falls clinic programme, and one evaluated stretch fabric splinting garments. Methodological quality varied (two studies rated as good, four as fair, and one as poor). Exercise interventions varied in terms of exercise type and dosage, frequency and intensity, and most did not align with recommendations for successful falls prevention exercise interventions reported for older people. While the majority of studies reported reduced falls, they differed in methods of reporting falls, and most did not utilise statistical analyses to evaluate outcomes. CONCLUSION This review identified a small number of falls prevention intervention studies for people with intellectual disability. Although several studies reported improvements in fall outcomes, ability to draw conclusions about intervention effectiveness is limited by small sample sizes and few studies. Further large-scale research is required to implement and evaluate falls prevention interventions specifically for adults with intellectual disability.

Objectives To identify combined clinical, radiomic, and delta-radiomic features in metastatic gastroesophageal adenocarcinomas (GEAs) that may predict survival outcomes. Methods A total of 166 patients with metastatic GEAs on palliative chemotherapy with baseline and treatment/follow-up (8-12 weeks) contrast-enhanced CT were retrospectively identified. Demographic and clinical data were collected. Three-dimensional whole-lesional radiomic analysis was performed on the treatment/follow-up scans. "Delta" radiomic features were calculated based on the change in radiomic parameters compared to the baseline. The univariable analysis (UVA) Cox proportional hazards model was used to select clinical variables predictive of overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) (p-value <0.05). The radiomic and "delta" features were then assessed in a multivariable analysis (MVA) Cox model in combination with clinical features identified on UVA. Features with a p-value <0.01 in the MVA models were selected to assess their pairwise correlation. Only non-highly correlated features (Pearson's correlation coefficient <0.7) were included in the final model. Leave-one-out cross-validation method was used, and the 1-year area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) was calculated for PFS and OS. Results Of the 166 patients (median age of 59.8 years), 114 (69%) were male, 139 (84%) were non-Asian, and 147 (89%) had an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0-1. The median PFS and OS on treatment were 3.6 months (95% CI 2.86, 4.63) and 9 months (95% CI 7.49, 11.04), respectively. On UVA, the number of chemotherapy cycles and number of lesions at the end of treatment were associated with both PFS and OS (p < 0.001). ECOG status was associated with OS (p = 0.0063), but not PFS (p = 0.054). Of the delta-radiomic features, delta conventional HUmin, delta gray-level zone length matrix (GLZLM) GLNU, and delta GLZLM LGZE were incorporated into the model for PFS, and delta shape compacity was incorporated in the model for OS. Of the treatment/follow-up radiomic features, shape compacity and neighborhood gray-level dependence matrix (NGLDM) contrast were used in both models. The combined 1-year AUC (Kaplan-Meier estimator) was 0.82 and 0.81 for PFS and OS, respectively. Conclusions A combination of clinical, radiomics, and delta-radiomic features may predict PFS and OS in GEAs with reasonable accuracy.

Abstract
The dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (dlPFC) is primarily involved in higher order executive functions, with there being evidence of lateralization. Brain imaging studies have revealed its link to the generation of skin sympathetic nerve activity (SSNA), which is elevated in states of emotional arousal or anxiety. However, no studies have directly explored dlPFC influences on SSNA. Transcranial alternating current stimulation (-2 to 2 mA, 0.08 Hz, 100 cycles) was applied between the left or right dlPFC and nasion via surface electrodes. Spontaneous bursts of SSNA were recorded from the common peroneal nerve via a tungsten microelectrode in 21 healthy participants. The modulation index was calculated for each stimulation paradigm by constructing cross-correlation histograms between SSNA and the sinusoidal stimulus. Stimulation of the dlPFC caused significant modulation of SSNA, but there was no significant difference in the median modulation index across sides. Stimulation also caused cyclic modulation of skin blood flow and sweat release. We have shown for the first time that stimulation of the dlPFC causes modulation of SSNA, also reflected in the effector-organ responses. This supports a role for the dlPFC in the control of SSNA, which likely contributes to the ability of emotions to bring about cutaneous vasoconstriction and sweat release.

Abstract
PURPOSE To (1) prospectively characterize the incidence of decision regret among women considering planned oocyte cryopreservation (planned OC), comparing those who pursued treatment vs those who did not freeze eggs, and (2) to identify baseline predictors for future decision regret. METHODS A total of 173 women seen in consultation for planned OC were followed prospectively. Surveys were administered at (1) baseline (< 1 week after initial consultation) and (2) follow-up, 6 months after planned OC among participants who froze eggs or 6 months following consultation in the absence of further communication to pursue treatment. The primary outcome was the incidence of moderate-to-severe decision regret, indicated by a Decision Regret Scale score > 25. We also examined predictors of regret. RESULTS The incidence of moderate-to-severe regret over the decision to freeze eggs was 9% compared to 51% over the decision not to pursue treatment. Among women who froze eggs, adequacy of information at baseline to decide about treatment (aOR 0.16, 95% CI 0.03, 0.87) and emphasis on future parenthood (aOR 0.80, 95% CI 0.66, 0.99) were associated with reduced odds of regret. Forty-six percent of women who froze eggs regretted not doing so earlier. Among women who did not freeze eggs, the primary reasons were financial and time constraints, correlating with increased odds of decision regret in an exploratory analysis. CONCLUSIONS Among women undergoing planned OC, the incidence of decision regret is low compared to the regret confronting women seen in consultation for planned OC but who do not pursue treatment. Provider counseling is key to offset the regret risk.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Resident physician wellness has been a highly contentious topic in graduate medical education over the past 2 decades. Physicians, including residents and attending physicians, are more likely than other professionals to work through illness and delay necessary healthcare screening appointments. Potential reasons for underutilization of health care include-unpredictable work hours, limited time, concerns about confidentiality, poor support from training programs, and apprehension about the impact on their peers. The goal of this study was to evaluate access to health care amongst resident physicians within a large military training facility. DESIGN This is an observational study using Department of Defense approved software to distribute an anonymous ten question survey on routine health care practices of residents. The survey was distributed to a total of 240 active-duty military resident physicians at a large tertiary military medical center. RESULTS One hundred seventy-eight residents completed the survey with a 74% response rate. Residents from 15 specialty areas responded. Compared to male counterparts', female residents were more likely to miss routine scheduled health care appointments to include, behavioral health appointments (54.2% vs 28%, p < 0.01). Female residents were more likely to report that attitudes toward missing clinical duties for health care appointments impacted their decision to start or add to their family more than male coresidents (32.3% vs 18.3%, p = 0.03). Surgical residents are also more likely to miss routine screening appointments or scheduled follow ups than residents in nonsurgical training programs; (84.0-88% compared to 52.4%-62.8%) respectively. CONCLUSIONS Resident health and wellness have long been an issue, with resident physical and mental health being negatively impacted during residency. Our study notes that residents in the military system also face barriers accessing routine health care. Female surgical residents being the demographic most significantly impacted. Our survey highlights cultural attitudes in military graduate medical education regarding the prioritization of personal health, and the negative impact that can have on residents' utilization of care. Our survey also raises concerns particularly amongst female surgical residents, that these attitudes may impact career advancement, as well as influence their decision to start or add to their families.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Prognostic scores that can identify patients at risk for early death are needed to aid treatment decision-making and patient selection for clinical trials. We compared the accuracy of four scores to predict early death (within 90 days) and overall survival (OS) in patients with metastatic gastric and esophageal (GE) cancer. METHODS Advanced GE cancer patients receiving first-line systemic therapy were included. Prognostic risks were calculated using: Royal Marsden Hospital (RMH), MD Anderson Cancer Centre (MDACC), Gustave Roussy Immune (GRIm-Score), and MD Anderson Immune Checkpoint Inhibitor (MDA-ICI) scores. Overall survival (OS) was estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method. Cox proportional hazards models were used to analyze associations between prognostic scores and OS. The predictive discrimination was estimated using Harrell's c-index. Predictive ability for early death was measured using time-dependent AUCs. RESULTS In total, 451 patients with metastatic GE cancer were included. High risk patients had shorter OS for all scores (RMH high- vs. low-risk median OS 7.9 vs. 12.2 months, P < .001; MDACC 6.8 vs. 11.9 months P < .001; GRIm-Score 5.3 vs. 13 months, P < .001; MDA-ICI 8.2 vs. 12.2 months, P < .001). On multivariable analysis, each prognostic score was significantly associated with OS. The GRIm-Score had the highest predictive discrimination and predictive ability for early death. CONCLUSIONS The GRIm-Score had the highest accuracy in predicting early death and OS. Clinicians may use this score to identify patients at higher risk of early death to guide treatment decisions including clinical trial enrolment. This score could also be used as a stratification factor in future clinical trial designs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study investigates the impact of dosimetric parameters on acute and late toxicity for patients with anal squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) treated with image-guided intensity modulated radiation therapy (IG-IMRT) and concurrent chemotherapy. MATERIALS AND METHODS Patients were enrolled in an observational cohort study between 2008 and 2013 (median follow-up 3.4 years). They were treated with standardized target and organ-at-risk (OAR) contouring, planning, and IG-IMRT. Radiotherapy dose, based on clinicopathologic features, ranged from 45 Gy to 63 Gy to gross targets and 27 Gy to 36 Gy to elective targets. Chemotherapy was concurrent 5-fluorouracil and mitomycin C (weeks 1&5). Toxicity was prospectively graded using NCI CTCAE v.3 and RTOG scales. Logistic regression was used to assess the association between dose/volume parameters (e.g small bowel V5) and corresponding grade 2 + and 3+ (G2+/3 + ) toxicities (e.g. diarrhea). RESULTS In total, 87 and 79 patients were included in the acute and late toxicity analyses, respectively. The most common acute G2 + toxicities were skin (dermatitis in 87 % [inguino-genital skin], 91 % [perianal skin]) and hematologic in 58 %. G2 + late anal toxicity (sphincter dysfunction), gastrointestinal toxicity, and skin toxicity were respectively experienced by 49 %, 38 %, and 44 % of patients. Statistically significant associations were observed between: G2 + acute diarrhea and small bowel V35; G2 + acute genitourinary toxicity and bladder D0.5cc; G2 + inguino-genital skin toxicity and anterior skin V35; G2 + perianal skin toxicity and posterior skin V15; G2 + anemia and lower pelvis bone V45. D0.5 cc was significantly predictive of late toxicity (G2 + anal dysfunction, intestinal toxicity, and inguino-genital/perianal dermatitis). Maximum skin toxicity grade was significantly correlated with the requirement for a treatment break. CONCLUSION Statistically significant dose-volume parameters were identified and may be used to offer individualized risk prediction and to inform treatment planning. Additional validation of the results is required.

Abstract
Background The improving survival in patients after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (aHCT) has warranted an increased attention to the long-term complications after aHCT especially second malignancies. The risk of developing esophageal cancer is thought to be higher than other malignancies after aHCT. There are limited data on the clinical characteristics, staging, treatment options and outcomes in these patients. Methods We retrospectively reviewed all patients who underwent aHCT at our centre over 30 years and identified patients who developed secondary esophageal cancer. Patients were analyzed for transplant details, disease characteristics and therapy, relapse free survival (RFS), and overall survival (OS). Results Ten patients [females 40% (n=4); median age 62 years] were diagnosed with esophageal cancer after a median duration of 5.8 years since aHCT. The standardized incidence ratio (SIR) for esophageal ca after aHCT was 1.96. Five patients (55.5%) had advanced clinical stages (stage III-IV) at diagnosis. Esophagectomy (with or without neoadjuvant chemotherapy) was performed in 50% (n=5) patients. Remission was achieved in 70% (n=7) of patients while 1 patient had progressive disease after planned treatment. Progressive disease was the cause in 50% (n=3) of deaths. Estimated 2- and 5-year overall survival after diagnosis of esophageal cancer was 60% and 45% respectively (median survival: 44.1 months). Conclusions Despite the higher risk and increased incidence of esophageal cancer after aHCT, the outcomes these patients may be comparable to that in general population if diagnosed early. This implies the need for continued long term follow-up for patients after aHCT with a transplant physician.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Whilst current evidence are in favour of metabolic health and non-obesity in the reduction of incident cardiovascular disease, little is known regarding the prognosis across the metabolic phenotypes once cardiovascular disease occurs. This study examined the prognosis of patients with significant aortic stenosis (AS) based on the presence of metabolic health and obesity.
Methods
This retrospective cohort on consecutive patients presenting with moderate-to-severe AS to a tertiary hospital between 2010 and 2015. Patients were allocated into 4 groups based on obesity and metabolic health: metabolically healthy obese (MHO), metabolically healthy non-obese (MHNO), metabolically unhealthy obese (MUO) and metabolically unhealthy non-obese (MUNO). Metabolic health was defined in accordance to Program Adult Treatment Panel III criteria. The primary outcome was all-cause mortality. Cox regression examined independent associations between mortality and metabolic phenotypes, adjusting for aortic valve area, ejection fraction, age, sex, chronic kidney disease and AVR as a time-dependent covariate.
Results
Of 727 patients, the majority (51.6%) were MUNO, followed by MUO (32.7%), MHNO (11.4%), and MHO (4.3%). MHNO had the highest mortality (43.0%), followed by the MUNO (37.5%), MUO (30.0%) and MHO (6.9%) groups (p=0.001). Compared to MHNO, MHO (HR 0.159, 95% CI 0.038–0.668, p=0.012) and MUO (HR 0.614, 95% CI 0.403–0.937, p=0.024) were independently associated with lower all-cause mortality rates, after adjusting for confounders. In obese patients, metabolic health had favourable survival compared to metabolically unhealthy (p=0.015), but this protective impact of metabolic health was not observed in overweight or normal weight individuals. Obesity had favourable survival compared to overweight and normal weight, in both metabolically health (p=0.002) and unhealthy (p=0.007) patients,
Conclusion
MHO patients with AS have the most favourable prognosis whilst the seemingly healthy MHNO group had the worst survival. There should be a paradigm shift towards prioritising metabolic health rather than weight reduction in patients with significant AS.
