Abstract
Objective To evaluate if topical bupivacaine 0.75% provides better pain control after excimer laser over topical tetracaine 1% without affecting corneal wound healing, refractive outcome of visual function. Design A prospective, double-masked trial was conducted in which 38 patients were randomized to receive either tetracaine or bupivacaine every 30 minutes for 24 hours post-operatively. Pain was recorded over a four day period using a Visual Analogue Pain Scale. The rate of epithelial healing was assessed during digitized retro-illumination photography. Visual performance was recorded using best corrected Snellen acuity, objective measurements of haze, halo and glare over a six month period. Results Tetracaine afforded better pain control (p=0.05). Full epithelial closure occurred in all patients within 72 hours and no statistically significant difference was recorded in any of the parameters measured. Conclusions Contrary to our expectation, the longer acting anaesthetic, bupivacaine, was inferior to tetracaine. Limited and supervised use of topical anaesthetics is recommended in controlling pain following photorefractive keratectomy.

Abstract
Postoperative changes in corneal transparency is a major concern after PRK. Data were obtained from 69 human eyes treated with excimer laser photorefractive keratectomy in order to evaluate a relationship between objective measurements of corneal transparency and visual performance. A CCD-camera device was employed and by using polarizing filters the system could discriminate between reflected and scattered light. We observed two groups of postoperative behaviour in corneal transparency. Each group showed an increase in both scattered and reflected light signals with a maximum at around two months postoperatively. In the majority group (70%) this was followed by a subsequent decline of the scattered light signal, whereas the combined signal generated by reflected and scattered light showed a biphasic curve with a second peak at around 4 to 5 months postoperatively. In the minority patient group (30%) the timebase variations in pattern of both signals were indistinguishable throughout the period of observation. In all patients we observed a good correlation between the signal generated by scattered light alone and the reduction in the 5% contrast visual acuity performance, whereas correlation was poor when the combined signal of reflected and scattered light was considered. These disturbances in low contrast visual performance were only significant during the first three to four months postoperatively and thereafter most patients returned to their preoperative value. Eighteen percent of our patients discontinued topical steroids postoperatively. No differences in either corneal transparency or final refraction was observed. We consider that PRK is an effective form of refractive surgery and the marginal loss of corneal transparency should only be a problem during the first three or four months postoperatively.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The results of excimer laser PRK are promising as more than 80% of eyes with up to -6.0 diopters of attempted correction have refractive results within 1.0 diopter of emmetropia. However, throughout the dioptric range some unexpected results have been observed with individual patients showing an aggressive wound healing response with excessive myopic regression and severe corneal haze. Unfortunately, only limited data are available about the cellular and extracellular responses in human corneas after PRK and this information is important to establish adequate postoperative pharmaceutical treatment. METHODS We made a histopathological and immunohistochemical study on 20 human corneal samples from patients with severe corneal haze and myopic regression. The indirect immunofluorescence method was used for demonstration of collagen types I, III, IV laminin, chondroitin sulphate, dermatan sulphate, and keratin. RESULTS All corneal specimens showed a hyperplastic epithelium. Histologically, most samples (16/20) showed mainly a loose lamination of extracellular material which could be identified as collagen type IV. The remaining four samples had newly synthesised collagen type III. CONCLUSIONS Our histopathological results indicate that corneal wound healing after excimer laser PRK varies among individuals. In some people epithelial basement proteins, such as collagen type IV, are the main wound healing products, whereas in others mainly collagen type III is found postoperatively, which does not effect the synthesis of collagen type IV. This suggests the need for individually-tailored postoperative pharmaceutical treatment regimens.

Abstract
A series of 85 patients with myopia, up to −6.00D, was treated by photorefractive keratectomy (PRK), using a 5 mm diameter ablation zone. At six months, 38 patients (45%) reported slight disturbances of night vision, nine (11%) of whom had significant problems. Perturbations of night vision after PRK are seen as starbursts and halos around lights. Corneal haze produces the starbursts, which are usually transient. In contrast, halos are myopic blur circles and may be persistent. Using a computer program, halos after PRK were found to be significantly larger than those in emmetropes and myopes corrected with spectacles (p < 0.01). The halos were diminished by using either artificial pupils or negative lens over-correction. In patients with identical bilateral PRK corrections, except for the ablation zone size, the magnitude of the halo was less with 5 mm than 4 mm zones (p < 0.01). Patients treated with 5 mm reported fewer problems attributable to halo than with the 4 mm ablation diameters (p < 0.01). Halos and pupil diameters were measured in nine patients with significant impairment of night vision haze. Those with starbursts had small hyperopic shifts, minimal halos and high haze and light scatter measurements, whilst patients with halos had large hyperopic shifts, little haze and large pupil diameters. Patients with persistent halo problems benefited from either negative lens over-correction or miotics at night.

Abstract
The New Zealand dairy sector relies on robust biosecurity measures to control and mitigate a wide range of threats to the industry. To optimize the prioritization of organisms and manage the risk they pose to the sector in a transparent and credible way, the Dairy Biosecurity Risk Evaluation Framework (D-BRiEF) was developed. This comprehensive framework was specifically designed for decision support, using a standardized approach to address the full spectrum of biosecurity threats to the sector, including exotic and endemic animal disease organisms, pest plants and insects. D-BRiEF is underpinned by three main processes, namely (i) hazard identification; (ii) multicriteria risk assessment; and (iii) communication for risk management. Expert knowledge and empirical data, including associated uncertainty, are harnessed in a standardized format. Results feed into a probability-impact model that was developed in close collaboration with dairy sector economists to provide overall comparative 10-year quantitative economic impact estimates for each assessed risk organism. A description of the overarching framework, which applies to diverse organism groups, is presented with detailed methodology on both endemic and exotic animal disease risk organisms. Examples of visual outputs are included, although actual ranking results are not reported due to industry confidentiality. D-BRiEF can provide a decision advantage to DairyNZ biosecurity risk managers and sector stakeholders by creating a transparent process that can be interrogated and updated at multiple levels to fully understand the layers of risk posed by different organisms.

Abstract
The development and operation of liquid-argon time-projection chambers for neutrino physics has created a need for new approaches to pattern recognition in order to fully exploit the imaging capabilities offered by this technology. Whereas the human brain can excel at identifying features in the recorded events, it is a significant challenge to develop an automated, algorithmic solution. The Pandora Software Development Kit provides functionality to aid the design and implementation of pattern-recognition algorithms. It promotes the use of a multi-algorithm approach to pattern recognition, in which individual algorithms each address a specific task in a particular topology. Many tens of algorithms then carefully build up a picture of the event and, together, provide a robust automated pattern-recognition solution. This paper describes details of the chain of over one hundred Pandora algorithms and tools used to reconstruct cosmic-ray muon and neutrino events in the MicroBooNE detector. Metrics that assess the current pattern-recognition performance are presented for simulated MicroBooNE events, using a selection of final-state event topologies.

Abstract
PurposeThe post-LASIK exacerbation of corneal dystrophy, otherwise asymptomatic, is almost exclusively associated with the TGFBI gene mutations at codon 124 in exon 4 and codon 555 in exon 12. It is our intention to demonstrate that the pre-operative genetic screening for TGFBI mutations should be mandatory for refractive surgery candidates.Patients and MethodsIn this study, we reviewed the proband's post-LASIK slit-lamp and in vivo confocal microscopy images and genetic testing results, and performed genetic testing on eleven additional members of the family to investigate the penetrance of corneal dystrophy in asymptomatic members who carry the mutation.ResultsThe proband demonstrated a post-LASIK exacerbation of Granular Corneal Dystrophy type 2 (GCD2), identified as a TGFBI R124H mutation. Three of the 11 family members tested positive for the same R124H mutation as the proband.ConclusionThe lesson learned from this case is that the genetic screening of TGFBI mutations must be incorporated into the pre-operative screening procedures to prevent exacerbation and recurrence, which eventually could lead to the need for a corneal transplant.

Abstract
The central role played by the ocean's Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) in the uptake and sequestration of transient tracers is studied in a series of experiments with the GISS and MIT ocean circulation models. Forced by observed atmospheric timeseries of CFC-11, both models exhibit realistic distributions in the ocean, with similar surface biases but different response over time. To better understand what controls uptake, we ran idealized forcing experiments in which the AMOC strength varied over a wide range, bracketing the observations. We found that differences in the strength and vertical scale of the AMOC largely accounted for the different rates of CFC-11 uptake and vertical distribution thereof. A 2-box model enables us to quantify, and relate uptake efficiency of passive tracers to AMOC strength and how uptake efficiency decreases in time. We also discuss the relationship between passive tracer and heat uptake efficiency, of which the latter controls the transient climate response to anthropogenic forcing in the North Atlantic. We find that heat uptake efficiency is substantially less (by about a factor of five) than that for a passive tracer.

Abstract
There is an urgent, agreed need to improve participation outcomes and interventions for children and young people with neurodisability. We worked together with service users and providers to design research into participation outcomes and interventions in neurodisability. We built on existing evidence about participation outcomes and interventions and the WHO International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health. We: (1) specified seven participation outcome categories for measurement; (2) prioritized these for improvement: self-care, friends and social, and physical activity ranked the highest; (3) identified 11 potential intervention categories for targeting the top priority, self-care, through eight hypothesized change mechanisms and agreed for the interventions to be delivered as a 'Menu of Interventions' for personalized self-care support; and (4) designed a before-and-after mixed methods feasibility study to evaluate the Menu with children and young people (0-12 years) and their parents and therapists.

Abstract
The residual neurological deficits after stroke are discussed in this article. The main problems are weakness, spasticity and rigidity. Weakness may be amenable to help with a variety of physical aids and mobility maintained with a wheelchair. Spasticity is defined in terms of the neurological defect and its consequences examined in the clinical context of the stroke patient. The place of antispastic drugs and their method of use is described. The importance of sensory loss in the production of functional disability is also discussed.

Abstract
Objective: To identify if the choice of material used to make focused rigid cast (FRC) and generic heel cups has an effect on heel pressure in healthy individuals during a static supine and seated position. Method: A repeated measure design was used to compare the effect of two focused rigidity heel devices made from different materials (3M semi-rigid and Benecast FLEX) and a generic polymer gel heel cup device on barefoot heel pressures. Subjects had heel pressures taken while barefoot and with the three different heel devices while in a supine and seated position using the device. Results: We recruited 32 healthy participants (21 females, and 11 males). When comparing Benecast FLEX and 3M semi-rigid focused rigidity casts with barefoot and the generic heel cups significant reductions in pressures were seen in all areas while seated and in the distal area while supine. However, there was no statistical difference between the two FRC devices, or between barefoot and the generic heel cup in either position. Conclusion: This study demonstrates that FRC heel devices effectively reduced heel pressures in healthy individuals and therefore could be used in practice when a reduction in pressure is required for the management of heel pressure ulcers in bedbound or chair-bound patients. Declaration of interest: Materials were supplied from Benecare Medical (who agreed to supply 20 rolls of Benecast FLEX), and the podiatry department of Kent Community Health NHS Trust (who agreed to supply some of the materials).

Abstract
Organ-transplant-recipients exhibit cancerization of the skin from which multiple human papillomavirus (HPV)-positive squamous cell carcinomas (SCCs) arise. However, the molecular basis for HPV-induced invasion of skin keratinocytes is not known. We generated a transgenic mouse model expressing the E7 oncoprotein of HPV8 in the murine epidermis under the control of the keratin-14 promoter and showed that E7 is carcinogenic in mice. We further showed that both, the E7-expressing keratinocyte and mesenchymal components of the extracellular matrix as critical in eliciting the invasive behavior. E7 expression in basal keratinocytes, grown on fibronectin, led to epithelial-mesenchymal transition mediated by a cadherin switch. E7-positive keratinocytes displayed enhanced EDA-fibronectin expression and secretion and stimulated dermal fibroblasts to express EDA-fibronectin. Deposition of fibronectin was also detected in the peritumoral stroma of HPV8-positive skin SCC. When grown on fibronectin, E7-positive keratinocytes, in particular stem cell-like cells, exhibited increased cell surface levels of the α3-integrin chain. Functional blocking confirmed α3 as a critical molecule sufficient to induce E7-mediated invasion. This mechanistic link is further supported by expression of an E7-mutant, impaired in targeting α3 to the cell surface. These findings highlight the importance of epithelial-extracellular matrix interaction required for keratinocyte invasion and provide further mechanistic evidence for a role of HPV in skin carcinogenesis.

Abstract
Breakage-fusion-bridge cycles in cancer arise when a broken segment of DNA is duplicated and an end from each copy joined together. This structure then 'unfolds' into a new piece of palindromic DNA. This is one mechanism responsible for the localised amplicons observed in cancer genome data. Here we study the evolution space of breakage-fusion-bridge structures in detail. We firstly consider discrete representations of this space with 2-d trees to demonstrate that there are [Formula: see text] qualitatively distinct evolutions involving [Formula: see text] breakage-fusion-bridge cycles. Secondly we consider the stochastic nature of the process to show these evolutions are not equally likely, and also describe how amplicons become localized. Finally we highlight these methods by inferring the evolution of breakage-fusion-bridge cycles with data from primary tissue cancer samples.

Abstract
BACKGROUND As individuals with Down syndrome are living longer and more socially connected lives, early access to supports and services for their parents will ensure an optimal start and improved outcomes. The family's journey begins at the child's diagnosis, and cumulative experiences throughout infancy and childhood set the tone for a lifetime of decisions made by the family regarding services, supports and activities. METHODS This study utilized focus groups and interviews with seven nurses, five therapists, 25 service co-ordinators, and 10 English- and three Spanish-speaking parents to better understand family experiences and perceptions on accessing Down syndrome-related perinatal, infant and childhood services and supports. RESULTS Parents and providers reflected on key early life issues for children with Down syndrome and their families in five areas: prenatal diagnosis; perinatal care; medical and developmental services; care co-ordination and services; and social and community support. CONCLUSIONS Systems of care are not consistently prepared to provide appropriate family-centred services to individuals with Down syndrome and their families. Individuals with disabilities require formal and informal supports from birth to achieve and maintain a high quality of life.
