Abstract
Healthcare-associated infections are a major issue in public health. After several decades of hand hygiene programmes, it is time to admit that we have failed to achieve our goal. One of the reasons is the overuse of gloves, which is in part justified by the nature of the nursing care. Several experimental studies supported the effectiveness of disinfecting gloves, but evidence for routine feasibility and effectiveness is lacking. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of alcohol-based disinfection of gloves during nursing care. Swabs were taken from the most contaminated part of both hands at different times: T0 (before wearing gloves), T10 (after 10 minutes of nursing care) from both gloves, T10A (just after the gloves were disinfected for 30 seconds with bedside disposable hydroalcoholic solution) and when possible at T20 and T20A. After 10 minutes of nursing care, gloves were contaminated in 72.5% of cases. After alcohol-based disinfection, gloves became free of microorganism in 79.3% of cases. Alcohol-based disinfection of gloves during routine care is effective and appears to be a reasonable alternative to current recommendations.

Clin Exp Metastasis 2020; 37:683-692.

Abstract
To evaluate feasibility, frequency and severity of peri-procedural complications and post-procedural adverse events (AEs) in patients with advanced cholangiocarcinoma or liver metastasis of uveal melanoma and prior hemihepatectomy undergoing chemosaturation percutaneous hepatic perfusion (CS-PHP) and to analyze therapy response and overall survival compared to a matched group without prior surgery. CS-PHP performed between 10/2014 and 02/2018 were retrospectively assessed. To determine peri-procedural safety and post-procedural adverse events, hospital records and hematological, hepatic and biliary function were categorized using Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) v5.0 (1–5; mild-death). Significance was tested using Wilcoxon signed-rank and Mann–Whitney U test. Kaplan–Meier estimation and log-rank test assessed survival. Overall 21 CS-PHP in seven patients (4/7 males; 52 ± 10 years) with hemihepatectomy (grouphemihep) and 22 CS-PHP in seven patients (3/7 males; 63 ± 12 years) without prior surgery (groupnoresection) were included. No complications occurred during the CS-PHP procedures. Transient changes (CTCAE grade 1–2) of liver enzymes and blood cells followed all procedures. In comparison, grouphemihep presented slightly more AEs grade 3–4 (e.g. thrombocytopenia in 57% (12/21) vs. 41% (9/22; p = 0.37)) 5–7 days after CS-PHP. These AEs were self-limiting or responsive to treatment (insignificant difference of pre-interventional to 21–45 days post-interventional values (p > 0.05)). One patient in grouphemihep with high tumor burden died eight days following CS-PHP. No deaths occurred in groupnoresection. In comparison, overall survival after first diagnosis was insignificantly shorter in groupnoresection (44.7(32–56.1) months) than in grouphemihep (48.3(34.6–72.8) months; p = 0.48). The severity of adverse events following CS-PHP in patients after hemihepatectomy was comparable to a matched group without prior liver surgery. Thus, the performance of CS-PHP is not substantially compromised by a prior hemihepatectomy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Current epidemiologic data suggest beneficial cardiovascular effects of fermented dairy products (FDP). However, the relationship between FDP consumption and angiographic coronary status has not been previously studied. Furthermore, the role of novel metabolomic biomarkers of cardiovascular risk in this context is unclear. We hypothesize that short-chain acylcarnitines (SCA) reflect the link between FDP intake and angiographic extent of stable coronary artery disease (CAD). METHODS AND RESULTS We recruited 1185 patients admitted for suspected CAD [median age 62 years (interquartile range: 54-69); 714 men (60.3%)]. Prior to coronary angiography, each patient completed a validated Food Frequency Questionnaire. In addition, venous blood was collected from each patient for whole blood metabolomic analysis, using targeted mass-spectrometry. CAD was defined by the presence of ≥1 coronary stenosis ≥50%. Patients with CAD (n = 441) reported lower median FDP intake [86.8 g/day (IQR: 53.4-127.6)] than patients without CAD [n = 744; 103.9 g/day (IQR: 62.9-152.7); p < 0.001]. Upon adjustment for relevant confounders, increased circulating SCA, particularly level of acetylcarnitine (C2) associated with both higher CAD probability [SCA:β(SE) = 0.584 (0.235), p = 0.013; C2:β(SE) = 0.575 (0.242), p = 0.017] and decreased FDP consumption [SCA:β/100 g FDP-increment/day (SE) = -0.785 (0.242), p = 0.001; C2:β(SE) = -0.560 (0.230), p = 0.015]. By mediation analysis, neither SCA nor C2 showed relevant mediator effect linking FDP consumption to the risk of CAD. CONCLUSION Increased consumption of fermented milk was associated with lower prevalence of CAD and correlated inversely with circulating SCA, in particular with acetylcarnitine. No substantial mediator effect of SCA linking fermented milk intake with risk of CAD was found. CLINICAL TRIAL REGISTRY NCT00497887.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Dysregulation of receptor tyrosine kinase MET by various mechanisms occurs in 3%-4% of non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and is associated with unfavorable prognosis. While MET is a validated drug target in lung cancer, the best biomarker strategy for the enrichment of a susceptible patient population still remains to be defined. Towards this end we analyze here primary data from a phase I dose expansion study of the MET inhibitor capmatinib in patients with advanced MET-dysregulated NSCLC. PATIENTS AND METHODS Eligible patients [≥18 years; Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status ≤2] with MET-dysregulated advanced NSCLC, defined as either (i) MET status by immunohistochemistry (MET IHC) 2+ or 3+ or H-score ≥150, or MET/centromere ratio ≥2.0 or gene copy number (GCN) ≥5, or (ii) epidermal growth factor receptor wild-type (EGFRwt) and centrally assessed MET IHC 3+, received capmatinib at the recommended dose of 400 mg (tablets) or 600 mg (capsules) b.i.d. The primary objective was to determine safety and tolerability; the key secondary objective was to explore antitumor activity. The exploratory end point was the correlation of clinical activity with different biomarker formats. RESULTS Of 55 patients with advanced MET-dysregulated NSCLC, 40/55 (73%) had received two or more prior systemic therapies. All patients discontinued treatment, primarily due to disease progression (69.1%). The median treatment duration was 10.4 weeks. The overall response rate per RECIST was 20% (95% confidence interval, 10.4-33.0). In patients with MET GCN ≥6 (n = 15), the overall response rate by both the investigator and central assessments was 47%. The median progression-free survival per investigator for patients with MET GCN ≥6 was 9.3 months (95% confidence interval, 3.8-11.9). Tumor responses were observed in all four patients with METex14. The most common toxicities were nausea (42%), peripheral edema (33%), and vomiting (31%). CONCLUSIONS MET GCN ≥6 and/or METex14 are suited to predict clinical activity of capmatinib in patients with NSCLC (NCT01324479).

Abstract
The most recent version of the European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO) Clinical Practice Guidelines for the diagnosis, treatment and follow-up of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) was published in 2018, and covered the diagnosis, management, treatment and follow-up of early, intermediate and advanced disease. At the ESMO Asia Meeting in November 2018 it was decided by both the ESMO and the Taiwan Oncology Society (TOS) to convene a special guidelines meeting immediately after the Taiwan Joint Cancer Conference (TJCC) in May 2019 in Taipei. The aim was to adapt the ESMO 2018 guidelines to take into account both the ethnic and the geographic differences in practice associated with the treatment of HCC in Asian patients. These guidelines represent the consensus opinions reached by experts in the treatment of patients with intermediate and advanced/relapsed HCC representing the oncology societies of Taiwan (TOS), China (CSCO), India (ISMPO) Japan (JSMO), Korea (KSMO), Malaysia (MOS) and Singapore (SSO). The voting was based on scientific evidence, and was independent of the current treatment practices, the drug availability and reimbursement situations in the individual participating Asian countries.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Illustration of a nowadays only rarely performed operative procedure for the treatment of osteonecrosis of the femoral head to prevent or at least delay advanced arthrosis and the need for a total hip replacement. The pedicled vascularized iliac bone graft is raised without the need for special microsurgical techniques and has less vascular complications often seen in free vascularized grafts. INDICATIONS Early stages of osteonecrosis of the femoral head stages II and III according to the Association Research Circulation Osseous (ARCO) up to the detection of fracture lines (crescent sign) but without mechanical insufficiency. CONTRAINDICATIONS Osteonecrosis of the femoral head with collapse of the femoral head (ARCO stage ≥IIIB) and mechanical insufficiency. Patients who are noncompliant or a not able to take the weight off the operated leg. Patients who had radiotherapy or an operation on ipsilateral inguinal lymph nodes and patients who have vascular anomalies or severe arteriosclerosis. SURGICAL TECHNIQUE Debridement of the femoral head osteonecrosis and implantation of a pedicled vascularized iliac bone graft. POSTOPERATIVE MANAGEMENT Free movement of the hip joint 4 weeks after surgery. Outward rotation of the hip joint allowed after 3 months and restriction of weight load on the operated leg for at least 3-6 months postoperatively depending on the bony consolidation. RESULTS Vascularized bone grafts for the treatment of femoral head necrosis show better clinical and radiological results than avascular bone grafts. Nevertheless, after 5 years follow-up approximately 25% of the operated hips formerly in stage II show further progression of radiological necrosis. In stage III all hips eventually show progress of femoral head collapse and the need of a total hip replacement. Concerning the outcome of a free vascularized bone graft (fibula flap) compared to the pedicled vascularized graft from the iliac crest for treatment, the anatomically demanding area and a higher complication rate should be considered even though the cancellous bone of the iliac crest is biologically ideal. Nowadays a free vascularized fibular graft is the most frequently used bone graft for treatment of femoral head necrosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Palliative chemotherapy of advanced oesophageal squamous cell cancer (ESCC) consists of cisplatin/5-fluorouracil (CF) to target epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) with panitumumab (P); chemotherapy enhanced overall survival (OS) in advanced colorectal or squamous cell head and neck cancers. With prospective serum and tumour biomarkers, we tested if P added to CF (CFP) improved OS in advanced ESCC. PATIENTS AND METHODS Eligible patients with confirmed ESCC that was not curatively resectable or did not qualify for definitive radiochemotherapy, were randomised 1 : 1 to receive CF [cisplatin (C) 100 mg/m2 i.v., day 1; 5-fluorouracil (F) 1000 mg/m2 i.v., days 1-4] or CF plus P (9 mg/kg, i.v., day 1, each q3-week cycle) until progressive disease or unacceptable toxicity. Safety was reviewed by the Data Safety Monitoring Board after 40, 70 and 100 patients who completed at least one cycle. After 53 enrolled patients, cisplatin was reduced from 100 mg/m2 to 80 mg/m2. RESULTS The trial was stopped early based on interim efficacy results triggered by the third safety analysis: median OS (mOS) favoured CF over CFP, regardless of cisplatin dose [hazard ratio (HR) 1.77, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.06-2.98; P = 0.028]. In the final analysis, mOS was 10.2 versus 9.4 months for CF versus CFP, respectively (HR 1.17, 95% CI 0.79-1.75; P = 0.43). One hundred (70.4%) of 142 patients in the safety population died, 51 (51.0%) with CFP. Most deaths were related to disease progression [44/49 (90%) deaths in CF versus 34/51 (67%) deaths in CFP]; objective responses [27/73 (37.0%)] were identical. The most common serious adverse events were kidney injury [3 (4.3%) versus 7 (9.7%)], general health deterioration [5 (7.1%) versus 5 (6.9%)] and dysphagia [4 (5.7%) versus 4 (5.6%)] in CF versus CFP, respectively. There were three (4.3%) and 17 (23.6%) common terminology criteria for adverse events (CTCAE) grade 5 events in CF versus CFP, respectively. Low soluble (s)EGFR levels were associated with better progression-free survival; sEGFR was induced under CFP. CONCLUSION EGFR inhibition added to CF did not improve survival in unselected advanced ESCC patients. The results support further liquid biopsy studies. TRIAL REGISTRATION ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT01627379) and EudraCT (2010-020606-15).
