Abstract
BackgroundEsophageal dysfunction affects the majority of patients with systemic sclerosis (SSc). Gastroesophageal reflux (GERD)-associated microaspiration may serve as an inciting and/or exacerbating factor in the pathogenesis of interstitial lung disease (ILD) in SSc. Few studies have investigated the relationship between objective measures of esophageal involvement in SSc and the progression of SSc-ILD.Objectives(1) To investigate whether patient-reported symptoms of GERD predict SSc-ILD severity and progression; (2) To explore whether quantitative radiographic measurements of esophageal parameters predict SSc-ILD severity and progression.MethodsParticipants of Scleroderma Lung Study (SLS) II (24 months of mycophenolate versus 12 months cyclophosphamide followed by 12 months of placebo in patients with active SSc-ILD) were included.1 The UCLA SCTC GIT 2.0 was used to assess the severity of reflux at baseline. Quantitative image analysis was used to calculate the diameter and area of the esophagus in the area of maximum dilation. Univariate and multivariable linear regression analyses were used to evaluate the relationship between baseline reflux scores/esophageal parameters and the severity and progression of SSc-ILD based on the quantitative radiographic extent of ILD (QILD) and fibrosis (QLF) in the lobe of maximum involvement (LM). All multivariable models controlled for treatment arm and baseline ILD severity, as well as proton pump inhibitor (PPI) use.ResultsAmong the 141 of 142 SLS II participants with patient-reported reflux scores at baseline, the mean score was 0.57, indicating moderate reflux. The mean maximal esophageal diameter and area at baseline were 22 mm and 242 mm2, respectively. There were no significant correlations between reflux scores, esophageal diameter, esophageal area and QILD-LM and QLF-LM at baseline. However, in the 96 participants with HRCT scans available at 24 months, increased reflux scores were significantly associated with worsening of QLF-LM and QILD-LM (Figure 1). Even after controlling for disease severity at baseline, treatment arm and PPI use, reflux scores remained significantly associated with change in QLF-LM (P-value 0.05) and QILD-LM (P-value 0.003). Neither the maximum esophageal area, nor the maximum esophageal diameter was associated with the change in QILD-LM or QLF-LM in univariate or multivariate analyses.Figure 1.Increased reflux scores at baseline are associated with increased progression (worsening) of QILD (A) and QLF (B) in the lobe of maximum involvement in patients with SSc-ILD.ConclusionIncreased self-reported reflux was independently associated with worsening radiographic fibrosis and ILD in patients receiving treatment for SSc-ILD. The maximum esophageal diameter and esophageal area did not correlate with reflux scores and did not predict severity or progression of SSc-ILD. These findings illustrate the importance of eliciting a careful patient history of reflux symptoms in patients with ILD and further highlight the need for improved objective measures of esophageal dysfunction in SSc.References[1]Tashkin et al.

Abstract
BackgroundThe idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIM) are autoimmune connective tissue diseases affecting skeletal muscle, skin and other organ systems. IIM-related interstitial lung disease (IIM-ILD) is the most common extra-muscular manifestation, being the leading cause of morbidity and mortality. Several studies have suggested that ILD pattern based on chest high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) can be related to disease course and treatment response, but the results vary considerably. Moreover, the clinical impact of the quantitative ILD (QILD) score, a validated computer-aided scoring system in assessing ILD severity from HRCT, and its longitudinal changes have not yet been evaluated in IIM-ILD.ObjectivesThis study aims to investigate ILD patterns and QILD scores in patients with IIM-ILD, to identify their clinical impact, and to delineate longitudinal changes of QILD measurement.MethodsA total of 80 patients with IIM (polymyositis 22, and dermatomyositis 58) who underwent at least 2 times of serial HRCT scans were included. Visual ILD patterns were assessed by multiple thoracic radiologists. Quantitative analysis of HRCT was presented as total extent of QILD scores (%) in whole lung and most severe zone. Individual time-estimated ΔQILD score between first 2 visits was derived using a linear approximation of yearly change, where the duration of median (IQR) was 1.0 (0.4-1.6) years in the first 2 HRCT scans.ResultsThe median (IQR) age of the patients was 52.0 (43.5-58.5) years and 60 (75.0%) were women. Baseline median score of whole lung-QILD and most severe zone-QILD were 28.1% (19.1-43.8) and 68.0% (45.5-81.8), respectively, and QILD score showed significant correlations with pulmonary function tests (r=-0.349, p=0.002 for % predicted forced vital capacity; and r=-0.381, p=0.001 for % predicted diffusing capacity for carbon monoxide). The individual time-estimated yearly ΔQILD score between first 2 visits presented that approximately half of the patients showed improvement or stability in QILD scores; however, when patients were sorted by visual assessment in ILD subtype on HRCT, approximately two-thirds of the patients with usual interstitial pneumonia (UIP) pattern were aggravated in QILD scores and less than half of subjects with nonspecific interstitial pneumonia and organizing pneumonia were aggravated (Figure 1, 80% for UIP vs. 44.4% for non-UIP, p=0.013). There was no immunosuppressive drugs related to meaningful improvement in QILD scores during first 2 visits. Notably, we observed significant aggravation of QILD scores in tacrolimus users (n=7, median time-estimated whole lung-yarly ΔQILD 20.3 (2.7-38.4)) compared with tacrolimus non-users (n=73, median time estimated whole lung-yearly ΔQILD -1.2 (-8.3-6.5)). Among 80 patients, 6 (7.5%) were died due to various lung complications. Higher baseline QILD scores were noted in deaths (median whole lung-QILD 45.4 (32.9-56.5)) than in survivors (median whole lung-QILD 26.9 (19.0-42.4)), albeit not significant (p=0.084). Poor survival rate was observed in patients with high grade of ground glass opacity by visual assessment in right upper lobe (log-rank test, p=0.042). Among subgroup of patients with 3 serial HRCT scans (n=41), dynamic changes of four distinct patterns (improving, worsening, convex, and concave) were observed.Figure 1.Cleveland dot plot of individual time-estimated yearly ΔQILD during fist 2 visits.ConclusionThe changes in QILD score in IIM-ILD are dynamic and present different by visual assessment. QILD score has the potential for evaluation of the severity changes, prognosis and medication response in patients with IIM-ILD.References[1]Tashkin DP, et al.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Textbook outcome has been proposed as a tool for the assessment of oncological surgical care. However, an international assessment in patients undergoing oesophagectomy for oesophageal cancer has not been reported. This study aimed to assess textbook outcome in an international setting.
Methods
Patients undergoing curative resection for oesophageal cancer were identified from the international Oesophagogastric Anastomosis Audit (OGAA) from April 2018 to December 2018. Textbook outcome was defined as the percentage of patients who underwent a complete tumour resection with at least 15 lymph nodes in the resected specimen and an uneventful postoperative course, without hospital readmission. A multivariable binary logistic regression model was used to identify factors independently associated with textbook outcome, and results are presented as odds ratio (OR) and 95 per cent confidence intervals (95 per cent c.i.).
Results
Of 2159 patients with oesophageal cancer, 39.7 per cent achieved a textbook outcome. The outcome parameter ‘no major postoperative complication’ had the greatest negative impact on a textbook outcome for patients with oesophageal cancer, compared to other textbook outcome parameters. Multivariable analysis identified male gender and increasing Charlson comorbidity index with a significantly lower likelihood of textbook outcome. Presence of 24-hour on-call rota for oesophageal surgeons (OR 2.05, 95 per cent c.i. 1.30 to 3.22; P = 0.002) and radiology (OR 1.54, 95 per cent c.i. 1.05 to 2.24; P = 0.027), total minimally invasive oesophagectomies (OR 1.63, 95 per cent c.i. 1.27 to 2.08; P < 0.001), and chest anastomosis above azygous (OR 2.17, 95 per cent c.i. 1.58 to 2.98; P < 0.001) were independently associated with a significantly increased likelihood of textbook outcome.
Conclusion
Textbook outcome is achieved in less than 40 per cent of patients having oesophagectomy for cancer. Improvements in centralization, hospital resources, access to minimal access surgery, and adoption of newer techniques for improving lymph node yield could improve textbook outcome.

Textbook outcome following oesophagectomy for cancer: international cohort study. Br J Surg 2022; 109:439-449. [PMID: 35194634 DOI: 10.1093/bjs/znac016] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/27/2021] [Revised: 10/08/2021] [Accepted: 01/04/2022] [Indexed: 11/14/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Textbook outcome has been proposed as a tool for the assessment of oncological surgical care. However, an international assessment in patients undergoing oesophagectomy for oesophageal cancer has not been reported. This study aimed to assess textbook outcome in an international setting. METHODS Patients undergoing curative resection for oesophageal cancer were identified from the international Oesophagogastric Anastomosis Audit (OGAA) from April 2018 to December 2018. Textbook outcome was defined as the percentage of patients who underwent a complete tumour resection with at least 15 lymph nodes in the resected specimen and an uneventful postoperative course, without hospital readmission. A multivariable binary logistic regression model was used to identify factors independently associated with textbook outcome, and results are presented as odds ratio (OR) and 95 per cent confidence intervals (95 per cent c.i.). RESULTS Of 2159 patients with oesophageal cancer, 39.7 per cent achieved a textbook outcome. The outcome parameter 'no major postoperative complication' had the greatest negative impact on a textbook outcome for patients with oesophageal cancer, compared to other textbook outcome parameters. Multivariable analysis identified male gender and increasing Charlson comorbidity index with a significantly lower likelihood of textbook outcome. Presence of 24-hour on-call rota for oesophageal surgeons (OR 2.05, 95 per cent c.i. 1.30 to 3.22; P = 0.002) and radiology (OR 1.54, 95 per cent c.i. 1.05 to 2.24; P = 0.027), total minimally invasive oesophagectomies (OR 1.63, 95 per cent c.i. 1.27 to 2.08; P < 0.001), and chest anastomosis above azygous (OR 2.17, 95 per cent c.i. 1.58 to 2.98; P < 0.001) were independently associated with a significantly increased likelihood of textbook outcome. CONCLUSION Textbook outcome is achieved in less than 40 per cent of patients having oesophagectomy for cancer. Improvements in centralization, hospital resources, access to minimal access surgery, and adoption of newer techniques for improving lymph node yield could improve textbook outcome.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Skin aging is caused by numerous factors that result in structural and functional changes in cutaneous components. Research has shown that senescent cells are known to accumulate in skin aging, however, the role of senescent cells in skin aging has not been defined. OBJECTIVES To elucidate the role of senescent cell in skin aging, we evaluated the effect of known senolytic drugs on senescent dermal fibroblasts. METHODS Primary human dermal fibroblasts (HDFs) were induced to senescence by long-term passaging, UV irradiation, and H2O2 treatment. Cell viability was measured after treatment of ABT-263 and ABT-737 on HDFs. Young and aged hairless mice were intradermally injected with drugs or vehicle on the dorsal skin for 10 days. Skin specimens were obtained and reverse-transcription quantitative PCR, western blotting, and histological analysis were performed. RESULTS We found that ABT-263 and ABT-737 induced selective clearance of senescent dermal fibroblasts, regardless of the method of senescence induction. Aged mouse skin treated with ABT-263 or ABT-737 showed increased collagen density, epidermal thickness, and proliferation of keratinocytes, as well as decreased senescence-associated secretory phenotypes, such as MMP-1 and IL-6. CONCLUSIONS Taken together, our results indicate that selective clearance of senescent skin cells can attenuate and improve skin aging phenotypes and that senolytic drugs may be of potential use as new therapeutic agents for treating aging of the skin.

Type of funding sources: None.
Background
Right ventricular (RV) dysfunction is an established independent predictor for adverse prognosis in a heterogeneous group of cardiac surgery patients (pts). However, there is lack of information about normal and abnormal dynamics of echocardiographic parameters for different types of cardiac surgery.
The aim of the study was to define changes in RV parameters after cardiac surgery.
Methods
sixty-five pts (39 men, 62 ± 9 years old) were selected into prospective study (NCT03953755). There were the groups of pts with left-sided valves surgery with/ without tricuspid valve (TV) repair, and pts with left-sided coronary artery bypass surgery without lesions of right coronary artery were included control group. A transthoracic echocardiography assessment before and an average of 101 days (88-115) following the operation was performed. Tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion (TAPSE), fractional area change (FAC), strain of the RV free wall (SRV), and right atrial volume were assessed in groups of patients with and without tricuspid valve repair as in CABG-group. Follow-up during 12 months was available in all pts.
Results
Valve repair for secondary tricuspid regurgitation was performed in nineteen patients undergoing left-sided valve surgery. Thirty-six patients had repair and/or replacement of left-sided valves without a tricuspid valve operation. There was a strong correlation between TAPSE, FAC, and RV strain before the operation (R = 0.61-0.67, p < 0.000001). However, there was no correlation between TAPSE and FAC; TAPSE, and RV strain after the operation. TAPSE and RV strain significantly decreased after the operations and were below the normal range in both the groups with valve surgery, whereas, the CABG group showed only significantly TAPSE decreasing, RV strain was unchanged. TAPSE was 20 ± 5mm vs. 13 ± 2 mm, p < 0.0003 for the group which underwent tricuspid valve repair; 22 ± 4mm vs. 14 ± 4 mm, p < 0.0000001 for the group with tricuspid valves which were not operated on; 25 ± 6mm vs. 16 ± 3 mm, p < 0.009 for CABG group. There was no difference in TAPSE and SRV ranges among patients with and without tricuspid valve repair. Dynamics in SRV didn’t correlate with patients’ clinical status or with normalized right chambers volumes. An increase in FAC correlated with a decrease in right chamber sizes after operations (R=-0.46, p < 0.03). More prominent decreasing in TAPSE was connected in adverse events during follow-up (dTAPSE 6.7 ± 3.5 mm vs. 12.7 ± 5.1 mm, p < 0.02)
Conclusion
TAPSE significantly decreases in all patients after CABG or valve cardiac operations with/without tricuspid valve repair, range of TAPSE were below normal standard in all patients. However more severe decreasing in TAPSE is connected with further adverse outcomes.

Abstract
Multidrug-resistant (MDR) Staphylococcus aureus and its biofilm formation have been challenging to control in milk and dairy industries. Biofilms formed by Staph. aureus may result in the failure of antibacterial agents and disinfectants to penetrate the biofilm in an attempt to control contamination. Novel natural antibacterial agents are required to combat MDR bacteria and biofilms. In this study, we evaluated the bactericidal, antibiofilm, and antimotility effects of Rumex japonicus Houtt. (RJH) extract on MDR Staph. aureus isolated from milk. The RJH extract exhibited good antibacterial activity against MDR strains with minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC) ranging from 0.78 to 6.25 mg/mL and minimum bactericidal concentrations ranging from 3.125 to 12.5 mg/mL. The extract showed strong inhibition of biofilm formation (81.9%) at sub-MIC value and eradication of biofilm at higher concentrations. The motility of Staph. aureus was effectively blocked by the extract. Major compounds emodin, chrysophanol, and physcion were identified in RJH extract using HPLC-linear trap quadrupole (LTQ)/Orbitrap-mass spectrometry. The extract was nontoxic to human epithelial cell lines such as Caco-2 and HT-29 cell lines at concentrations ranging from 0.1 to 0.5 mg/mL, and from 0.1 to 0.75 mg/mL, respectively. These findings suggest that RJH extract could be an alternative to synthetic preservatives in milk and dairy products.

Abstract
This study developed postbiotics with whey bioconversion product produced by Enterococcus faecalis M157 KACC 81148BP, and mixed whey bioconversion products produced by E. faecalis M157 KACC 81148BP and Lactococcus lactis ssp. lactis CAU2013 KACC 81152BP to alleviate periodontitis (PD) and to improve gut health. The powdered whey bioconversion product (EF) produced by E. faecalis M157 KACC 81148BP, mixed whey bioconversion products (EF+LL) from E. faecalis M157 KACC 81148BP and L. lactis CAU2013 KACC 81152BP, and phosphate-buffered saline (PBS; control) were administered orally to PD-induced rats for 8 wk. Infiltration of inflammatory cells and epithelial proliferation in periodontal tissue were found in control, but the lesions were reduced in PD+EF group (administration of EF to PD-induced rats), and no lesions were observed in PD+EF+LL group (administration of EF+LL to PD-induced rats). The bone loss volumes in PD+EF and PD+EF+LL groups were lower than in control. Cytokine production levels related to inflammation were lower and antioxidative stress markers were higher in PD+EF and PD+EF+LL groups than in control for both periodontal tissue and gut. The ratios of Lactobacillus spp. in gut microbiome of PD+EF and PD+EF+LL groups were higher than in control. These results indicate that the whey bioconversion product produced by E. faecalis M157 KACC 81148BP, and mixed whey bioconversion products produced by E. faecalis M157 KACC 81148BP and L. lactis CAU2013 KACC 81152BP are effective on relieving periodontitis and improving the gut health.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The complexity of oesophageal surgery and the significant risk of morbidity necessitates that oesophagectomy is predominantly performed by a consultant surgeon, or a senior trainee under their supervision. The aim of this study was to determine the impact of trainee involvement in oesophagectomy on postoperative outcomes in an international multicentre setting. METHODS Data from the multicentre Oesophago-Gastric Anastomosis Study Group (OGAA) cohort study were analysed, which comprised prospectively collected data from patients undergoing oesophagectomy for oesophageal cancer between April 2018 and December 2018. Procedures were grouped by the level of trainee involvement, and univariable and multivariable analyses were performed to compare patient outcomes across groups. RESULTS Of 2232 oesophagectomies from 137 centres in 41 countries, trainees were involved in 29.1 per cent of them (n = 650), performing only the abdominal phase in 230, only the chest and/or neck phases in 130, and all phases in 315 procedures. For procedures with a chest anastomosis, those with trainee involvement had similar 90-day mortality, complication and reoperation rates to consultant-performed oesophagectomies (P = 0.451, P = 0.318, and P = 0.382, respectively), while anastomotic leak rates were significantly lower in the trainee groups (P = 0.030). Procedures with a neck anastomosis had equivalent complication, anastomotic leak, and reoperation rates (P = 0.150, P = 0.430, and P = 0.632, respectively) in trainee-involved versus consultant-performed oesophagectomies, with significantly lower 90-day mortality in the trainee groups (P = 0.005). CONCLUSION Trainee involvement was not found to be associated with significantly inferior postoperative outcomes for selected patients undergoing oesophagectomy. The results support continued supervised trainee involvement in oesophageal cancer surgery.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Ischaemic mitral regurgitation (IMR) is a frequent complication of coronary artery disease. This is generally associated with double mortality rates. Poor prognosis could be observed despite successful cardiac surgery. There is a gap about predictors of further negative outcomes after surgical treatment. Owing to the dynamic nature of IMR, we hypothesize that multiparametric stress echocardiography (SE) would be helpful in assessing risk stratification. Aim: To evaluate the relationship between multiparametric SE parameters and outcomes after cardiac surgery in patients with IMR.
Methods
We prospectively enrolled 30 patients (62.7±8.5 yrs, 18 men), who have severe IMR by ESC classification, referred for coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) with or without mitral surgery. Before cardiac surgery, the patients performed semi-supine bicycle multiparametric SE. Wall motion abnormalities, systolic and diastolic volumes of left ventricle, B-lines (lung congestion feature), left atrium volume, pulmonary pressure, mitral regurgitation volume, and effective regurgitation orifice area (EROA) were assessed before and during exercise. Ejection fraction (EF) and left contractile reserve were calculated. All-cause death was an endpoint.
Results
All patients had indications for CABG due to severe three-vessel disease. Before exercising, EF was 42±12%, end-diastolic volume was 167±49 ml, systolic volume of left ventricle was 86±39 ml, left atrium was 103±37 ml, global longitudinal strain was 12±4%, index of wall motion abnormality was 1.83±0.48, EROA was 0.39±0.22 cm2, regurgitation volume was 58±27 ml, systolic pulmonary pressure was 43±16 mmHg, and B-lines were 2.4±2. During exercise, EF was 44±17%, end-diastolic volume was 148±54 ml, systolic volume of left ventricle was 98±44 ml, index of wall motion abnormality was 2.30±0.49, EROA was 0.45±0.2 cm2, regurgitation volume was 70±32 ml, systolic pulmonary pressure was 51±14 mmHg, and B-lines were 5.4±3.3. A median follow-up time was 332 days (224–335). ROC analysis demonstrated that left ventricle end-diastolic volume during exercise (the cut-off value 192 ml, area under the ROC curve 0.77, p<0.03), EROA during exercise (the cut-off value 0.37 cm2, the area 0.86, p<0.0003), regurgitant volume during stress (the cut-off value 82 ml, the area 0.79, p<0.02), the difference between stress and rest B-lines (the cut-off value 6 lines, the area 0.83, p<0.0001), the difference between stress and rest EROA (the cut-off value 0.15 cm2, the area 0.77, p=0.05) were associated with death.
Conclusion
The stress echocardiographic parameters were associated with increased mortality after cardiac surgery in patients with IMR over the 1-year follow-up. B-lines (objective evidence of severe congestive heart failure), EROA, regurgitation volume (severity of mitral regurgitation during exercise) were all associated with worse outcome. These preliminary results should be confirmed in the larger studies.

Abstract
In native heart tissue, cardiac fibroblasts provide the structural framework of extracellular matrix (ECM) while also influencing the electrical and mechanical properties of cardiomyocytes. Recent advances in the field of stem cell differentiation have led to the availability of human pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiac fibroblasts (iPSC-CFs) in addition to cardiomyocytes (iPSC-CMs). Here we use a novel 2D in vitro micropatterned platform that provides control over ECM geometry and substrate stiffness. When cultured alone on soft micropatterned substrates, iPSC-CFs are confined to the micropatterned features and remodel the ECM into anisotropic fibers. Similar remodeling and ECM production occurs when cultured with iPSC-CMs in a co-culture model. In addition to modifications in the ECM, our results show that iPSC-CFs influence iPSC-CM function with accelerated Ca2+ transient rise-up time and greater contractile strains in the co-culture conditions compared to when iPSC-CMs are cultured alone. These combined observations highlight the important role cardiac fibroblasts play in vivo and the need for co-culture models like the one presented here to provide more representative in vitro cardiac constructs.

Abstract
Objectives: Syndecan-1 (SDC-1), a transmembrane heparin sulphate proteoglycan predominantly expressed on epithelial cells, also exists in a soluble form through ectodomain shedding. SDC-1 expression and shedding may be modulated in the inflammatory milieu of primary Sjögren's syndrome (SS). We investigated SDC-1 expression in minor salivary glands (MSGs) and analysed the association between salivary or plasma levels of SDC-1 and clinical parameters in SS.Method: We measured salivary and plasma SDC-1 levels via an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and assessed the salivary flow rates (SFRs) in 70 patients with SS and 35 healthy subjects. Disease activity indices, serological markers, salivary gland scintigraphy, and MSG biopsy were evaluated in patients with SS.Results: SDC-1 expression was upregulated on ductal epithelial cells in inflamed salivary glands. Salivary SDC-1 levels in patients significantly exceeded those in healthy subjects [median (interquartile range) 49.0 (20.7-79.1) vs 3.7 (1.7-6.3) ng/mL, p < 0.001] and inversely correlated with SFRs (r = -0.358, p = 0.032) and ejection fractions of the parotid (r = -0.363, p = 0.027) and submandibular (r = -0.485, p = 0.002) glands in salivary gland scintigraphy. Plasma SDC-1 levels were significantly correlated with the EULAR Sjögren's Syndrome Disease Activity Index (r = 0.507, p < 0.001) and EULAR Sjögren's Syndrome Patient Reported Index (r = 0.267, p = 0.033). Focus scores were correlated with salivary SDC-1 levels (r = 0.551, p = 0.004).Conclusion: Salivary and plasma SDC-1 levels may constitute potential biomarkers for salivary gland function and disease activity, respectively, in SS.
