Abstract
LAY ABSTRACT Good relationships between parents and schools can improve autistic children's school success. There are many reasons why families from different cultural backgrounds find it harder to develop good relationships with schools, such as language barriers, discrimination and unfamiliarity with education systems. We know little about what 'good relationships' look like for these families. Here, we worked with a team of autistic and non-autistic researchers as well as an Advisory Group of Somali parents to conduct interviews with 15 Somali mothers of kindergarten and school-age autistic children. We asked mothers about their experiences of their child's education, communication with teachers and what a good relationship with schools would look like. We also asked how they felt the Somali community understood autism. We looked for common things that mothers said. We found that mothers were very proud of their children. They had high expectations, particularly about what children could do by themselves. Mothers found it frustrating that teachers had low expectations, that schools were not good at communicating with them and that autism-specific skills and experience were uncommon in schools. They also reported racist attitudes towards their children. Mothers experienced stigma and lacked resources, but support was gained from their daughters and their religion. Mothers themselves were proactively increasing community awareness and knowledge about autism in the hope that they and their autistic children would be valued and better supported. Our work has implications for how teachers and schools can work together with Somali parents to forge better futures for autistic children.

Abstract
Background and aims Participatory research involves academic partners working together with the community that is affected by research to make decisions about that research. Such approaches often result in research that is more respectful of, and responsive to, community preferences - and is vital in the context of autism research with culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) communities. Whilst participatory approaches are becoming more commonplace within CALD autism research, no studies have explored the experiences of being involved in autism research from the perspectives of CALD community partners over the course of a study. This paper intended to address this gap by reporting on the experiences of CALD parents of autistic children who were community partners in a 1-year Australian research project exploring home-school partnerships for CALD parents of autistic children. We aimed to: (1) report on how parents' involvement in the research process shaped the home-school partnerships study over time and (2) understand their experiences of being community partners on the home-school partnerships project. Methods Using key principles of participatory approaches, we established Chinese and Vietnamese parent advisory groups to contribute to a project exploring home-school partnerships for parents of autistic children from CALD backgrounds in Australia. Advisory groups included parents of autistic children from Chinese/Vietnamese backgrounds, as well as interpreters, professionals and researchers. We documented how parents' participation as community partners shaped the home-school partnerships study over the course of the project. We also elicited parents' own views and experiences of being community partners through informal, open-ended questions at the beginning and end of the study. Results We found that parents' input fundamentally shaped the broader home-school partnership study, from meaningful, accurate translation of interview schedules through to making decisions regarding community-specific recommendations and dissemination plans. Parents themselves reported being keen to collaborate and to hear and share opinions for the purpose of the home-school partnership study - although they noted how emotionally difficult sharing their stories could be. While they initially had some concerns about combining being involved as a community partner with their existing responsibilities, ultimately, parents were surprised by the scope of the home-school partnership study and their level of involvement as community partners. Through hearing others' stories and sharing their own in advisory group meetings, parents reported ancillary benefits of their involvement, including increased self-advocacy and well-being. Conclusions These findings show how research that is conducted in partnership with diverse members of the autism community has the capacity to improve the quality of the research and benefit community partners. Implications This study clearly documents the benefits and potential challenges of participatory approaches with CALD communities. These findings emphasise to researchers and funders the importance of including extra time and money within budgets in order to produce meaningful research that is respectful and responsive to communities.

Caregiver sensitivity predicts infant language use, and infant language complexity predicts caregiver language complexity, in the context of possible emerging autism. Autism Res 2022; 16:745-756.

Abstract
While theory supports bidirectional effects between caregiver sensitivity and language use, and infant language acquisition-both caregiver-to-infant and also infant-to-caregiver effects-empirical research has chiefly explored the former unidirectional path. In the context of infants showing early signs of autism, we investigated prospective bidirectional associations with 6-min free-play interaction samples collected for 103 caregivers and their infants (mean age 12-months; and followed up 6-months later). We anticipated that measures of caregiver sensitivity/language input and infant language would show within-domain temporal stability/continuity, but also that there would be predictive associations from earlier caregiver input to subsequent child language, and vice versa. Caregiver sensitive responsiveness (from the Manchester Assessment of Caregiver-Infant interaction [MACI]) predicted subsequent infant word tokens (i.e., amount of language, coded following the Systematic Analysis of Language Transcripts [SALT]). Further, earlier infant Mean Length of Utterance (MLU; reflecting language complexity, also derived from SALT coding) predicted later caregiver MLU, even when controlling for variability in infant ages and clear within-domain temporal stability/continuity in key measures (i.e., caregiver sensitive responsiveness and infant word tokens; and infant and caregiver MLU). These data add empirical support to theorization on how caregiver input can be both supportive of, and potentially influenced by, infant capacities, when infants have social-communication differences and/or communication/language delays suggestive of possible emerging autism.

Abstract
AIMS The European Society of Cardiology (ESC) EURObservational Research Programme (EORP) Non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) Registry aims to identify international patterns in NSTEMI management in clinical practice and outcomes against the 2015 ESC Guidelines for the management of acute coronary syndromes in patients presenting without ST-segment-elevation. METHODS AND RESULTS Consecutively hospitalised adult NSTEMI patients (n = 3620) were enrolled between 11 March 2019 and 6 March 2021, and individual patient data prospectively collected at 287 centres in 59 participating countries during a two-week enrolment period per centre. The registry collected data relating to baseline characteristics, major outcomes (in-hospital death, acute heart failure, cardiogenic shock, bleeding, stroke/transient ischaemic attack, and 30-day mortality) and guideline-recommended NSTEMI care interventions: electrocardiogram pre- or in-hospital, pre-hospitalization receipt of aspirin, echocardiography, coronary angiography, referral to cardiac rehabilitation, smoking cessation advice, dietary advice, and prescription on discharge of aspirin, P2Y12 inhibition, angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEi)/angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB), beta-blocker, and statin. CONCLUSION The EORP NSTEMI Registry is an international, prospective registry of care and outcomes of patients treated for NSTEMI, which will provide unique insights into the contemporary management of hospitalised NSTEMI patients, compliance with ESC 2015 NSTEMI Guidelines, and identify potential barriers to optimal management of this common clinical presentation associated with significant morbidity and mortality.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Features of underlying autonomic dysfunction, including sleep disturbances, gastrointestinal problems, and atypical heart rate, have been reported in neurodevelopmental conditions, including autism spectrum disorder (ASD). The current cross-sectional, between-groups study aimed to quantify symptoms of autonomic dysfunction in a neurodevelopmental pediatric cohort characterized by clinical diagnoses as well as genetic etiology. METHOD The Pediatric Autonomic Symptom Scales (PASS) questionnaire was used to assess autonomic features across a group of patients with clinical neurodevelopmental diagnoses (NPD; N = 90) and genetic etiologies. Patients were subdivided based on either having a clinical ASD diagnosis (NPD-ASD; n = 37) or other non-ASD neurodevelopmental diagnoses, such as intellectual disability without ASD, speech and language disorders, and/or attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (NPD-OTHER; n = 53). Analyses focused on characterizing differences between the NPD group compared to previously published reference samples, as well as differences between the two NPD subgroups (NPD-ASD and NPD-OTHER). RESULTS Our results indicate higher PASS scores in our NPD cohort relative to children with and without ASD from a previously published cohort. However, we did not identify significant group differences between our NPD-ASD and NPD-OTHER subgroups. Furthermore, we find a significant relationship between quantitative ASD traits and symptoms of autonomic function. CONCLUSION This work demonstrates the utility of capturing quantitative estimates of autonomic trait dimensions that may be significantly linked with psychosocial impairments and other core clinical features of ASD.

Intraarticular steroids as DMARD-sparing agents for juvenile idiopathic arthritis flares: Analysis of the Childhood Arthritis and Rheumatology Research Alliance Registry. Pediatr Rheumatol Online J 2022; 20:107.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Children with juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) who achieve a drug free remission often experience a flare of their disease requiring either intraarticular steroids (IAS) or systemic treatment with disease modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (DMARDs). IAS offer an opportunity to recapture disease control and avoid exposure to side effects from systemic immunosuppression. We examined a cohort of patients treated with IAS after drug free remission and report the probability of restarting systemic treatment within 12 months. METHODS We analyzed a cohort of patients from the Childhood Arthritis and Rheumatology Research Alliance (CARRA) Registry who received IAS for a flare after a period of drug free remission. Historical factors and clinical characteristics and of the patients including data obtained at the time of treatment were analyzed. RESULTS We identified 46 patients who met the inclusion criteria. Of those with follow up data available 49% had restarted systemic treatment 6 months after IAS injection and 70% had restarted systemic treatment at 12 months. The proportion of patients with prior use of a biologic DMARD was the only factor that differed between patients who restarted systemic treatment those who did not, both at 6 months (79% vs 35%, p < 0.01) and 12 months (81% vs 33%, p < 0.05). CONCLUSION While IAS are an option for all patients who flare after drug free remission, it may not prevent the need to restart systemic treatment. Prior use of a biologic DMARD may predict lack of success for IAS. Those who previously received methotrexate only, on the other hand, are excellent candidates for IAS.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Frailty affects 21.5% of individuals aged 65 and over in Ireland (TILDA, 2017).Timely interventions can limit or reverse the impacts of frailty. Local HIPE data from 2016-2020 highlighted correlations between increased average Length of Stay (aLOS) and median age (>65 years) for those undergoing elective Anterior Resections and Hartmann’s reversal surgeries. Prehabilitation aims to identify and manage modifiable risk factors that may impact on LOS, as well as optimise patients’ resilience and physiological reserves to reduce postoperative complications. Modifiable factors include pre-operative function, co-morbidities and post-operative delirium. In the Republic of Ireland, surgical interdisciplinary Prehabilitation services exist only in one hospital.
Methods
An interdisciplinary prehabilitation pilot for individuals undergoing elective colorectal surgeries was developed. Patients are referred from surgical clinics to Physiotherapy, Occupational Therapy or Dietitian preoperatively. Interventions include respiratory optimisation, exercise prescription, discharge planning, equipment provision and pre-operative nutritional reviews.
Results
Three elective patients have completed the first phase of the pilot. Two underwent anterior resections and one underwent a Hartmann’s reversal. The LOS for each individual was 4 days respectively, 4 days under the KPIs. Patients received virtual assessment and individualised interventions including an interdisciplinary educational booklet. Interventions included: exercise programmes, nutritional support, discharge planning discussion and equipment as indicated. No post-operative complications were identified and no interim beds or home supports were required. Qualitative feedback surveys were completed by all participants. Subjective feedback from patients has been overwhelmingly positive.
Conclusion
Patients report feeling physically and psychologically better prepared for surgery with better knowledge of post-operative expectations. Patients are more proactive in their postoperative recovery meaning they can return home sooner. This pilot enhances evidence-based ERAS practice, improving the quality and safety of patients journey. Participants also had a 12 day cumulative reduction in aLOS with financial savings of €12000.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
The most common causes for surgical admissions in our model 3 hospital are: (1) abdominal pathologies requiring conservative and/or operative management; (2) traumatic injuries leading to rib/sternal fractures; (3) Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBI). With life expectancy increasing, the number of older adults undergoing intra-abdominal surgery and presenting with traumatic injuries is increasing. This cohort often experience high levels of frailty and significant morbidity and mortality due to poor physiological reserves. Further functional decline post-admission causes higher rehabilitation needs with greater risk of requiring long-term care. Care of Older Person Services are under active development in our hospital. An off-site Geriatrician-led specialist rehabilitation unit was initially established for medical patients in 2015. Access was then made available to acute surgical patients in 2021.
Methods
A cross-site review of outcomes achieved by older adults who transferred from the acute surgical ward to specialist inpatient rehab unit was completed.
Results
Twenty-two patients utilised this pathway but unfortunately only data relating to sixteen individuals was available due to the HSE cyber-attack. 56.25% were male (n=9) and 43.75% (n=7) were female. Most common diagnosis included 31.25% (n=5) new TBI; 18.75% (n=3) post-abdominal surgery and 12.5% (n=2) rib fractures. The average Length of Stay (aLOS) in rehabilitation was 27 days. On average, post-operative patients had a lengthier aLOS (48 days) while new TBI had the shortest (18.5 days). Overall, 94% (n=15) returned home with 60% (n=9) requiring home supports. 100% (n=16) demonstrated improvements in both their Barthel scores and ‘Timed Up and Go’ scores. The average Berg score improved from high falls risk on admission to independent with assistive device. There was one instance of acute readmission post discharge home.
Conclusion
Specialist Geriatrician-led rehabilitation for surgical patients has demonstrated low rates of re-admission, improved function and reduced falls risk with 94% (n=15) of patients returning home.

Lawson Criterion for Ignition Exceeded in an Inertial Fusion Experiment. PHYSICAL REVIEW LETTERS 2022; 129:075001. [PMID: 36018710 DOI: 10.1103/physrevlett.129.075001] [Citation(s) in RCA: 46] [Impact Index Per Article: 23.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/25/2022] [Revised: 06/24/2022] [Accepted: 07/06/2022] [Indexed: 06/15/2023]
Abstract
For more than half a century, researchers around the world have been engaged in attempts to achieve fusion ignition as a proof of principle of various fusion concepts. Following the Lawson criterion, an ignited plasma is one where the fusion heating power is high enough to overcome all the physical processes that cool the fusion plasma, creating a positive thermodynamic feedback loop with rapidly increasing temperature. In inertially confined fusion, ignition is a state where the fusion plasma can begin "burn propagation" into surrounding cold fuel, enabling the possibility of high energy gain. While "scientific breakeven" (i.e., unity target gain) has not yet been achieved (here target gain is 0.72, 1.37 MJ of fusion for 1.92 MJ of laser energy), this Letter reports the first controlled fusion experiment, using laser indirect drive, on the National Ignition Facility to produce capsule gain (here 5.8) and reach ignition by nine different formulations of the Lawson criterion.

[PMID: 35472304 PMCID: PMC9034855 DOI: 10.1016/s2213-2600(22)00127-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 144] [Impact Index Per Article: 72.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/04/2022] [Revised: 03/23/2022] [Accepted: 03/31/2022] [Indexed: 11/25/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND No effective pharmacological or non-pharmacological interventions exist for patients with long COVID. We aimed to describe recovery 1 year after hospital discharge for COVID-19, identify factors associated with patient-perceived recovery, and identify potential therapeutic targets by describing the underlying inflammatory profiles of the previously described recovery clusters at 5 months after hospital discharge. METHODS The Post-hospitalisation COVID-19 study (PHOSP-COVID) is a prospective, longitudinal cohort study recruiting adults (aged ≥18 years) discharged from hospital with COVID-19 across the UK. Recovery was assessed using patient-reported outcome measures, physical performance, and organ function at 5 months and 1 year after hospital discharge, and stratified by both patient-perceived recovery and recovery cluster. Hierarchical logistic regression modelling was performed for patient-perceived recovery at 1 year. Cluster analysis was done using the clustering large applications k-medoids approach using clinical outcomes at 5 months. Inflammatory protein profiling was analysed from plasma at the 5-month visit. This study is registered on the ISRCTN Registry, ISRCTN10980107, and recruitment is ongoing. FINDINGS 2320 participants discharged from hospital between March 7, 2020, and April 18, 2021, were assessed at 5 months after discharge and 807 (32·7%) participants completed both the 5-month and 1-year visits. 279 (35·6%) of these 807 patients were women and 505 (64·4%) were men, with a mean age of 58·7 (SD 12·5) years, and 224 (27·8%) had received invasive mechanical ventilation (WHO class 7-9). The proportion of patients reporting full recovery was unchanged between 5 months (501 [25·5%] of 1965) and 1 year (232 [28·9%] of 804). Factors associated with being less likely to report full recovery at 1 year were female sex (odds ratio 0·68 [95% CI 0·46-0·99]), obesity (0·50 [0·34-0·74]) and invasive mechanical ventilation (0·42 [0·23-0·76]). Cluster analysis (n=1636) corroborated the previously reported four clusters: very severe, severe, moderate with cognitive impairment, and mild, relating to the severity of physical health, mental health, and cognitive impairment at 5 months. We found increased inflammatory mediators of tissue damage and repair in both the very severe and the moderate with cognitive impairment clusters compared with the mild cluster, including IL-6 concentration, which was increased in both comparisons (n=626 participants). We found a substantial deficit in median EQ-5D-5L utility index from before COVID-19 (retrospective assessment; 0·88 [IQR 0·74-1·00]), at 5 months (0·74 [0·64-0·88]) to 1 year (0·75 [0·62-0·88]), with minimal improvements across all outcome measures at 1 year after discharge in the whole cohort and within each of the four clusters. INTERPRETATION The sequelae of a hospital admission with COVID-19 were substantial 1 year after discharge across a range of health domains, with the minority in our cohort feeling fully recovered. Patient-perceived health-related quality of life was reduced at 1 year compared with before hospital admission. Systematic inflammation and obesity are potential treatable traits that warrant further investigation in clinical trials.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Parent-infant interaction is poorly understood among high-risk dyads in NICU settings. No parent-infant interaction measures are specifically designed for preterm infants within the NICU nor account for the education NICU parents receive to tailor their interactions based on the infant's cues. AIM To improve our understanding of a measure of parent-infant interaction in the NICU, we investigated relationships between parent-infant interaction scores on the Nursing Child Assessment Feeding Scale (NCAFS) and 1) socio-demographic and medical factors, 2) parent mental health and confidence, and 3) enhanced parental education (delivered as part of the Supporting and Enhancing NICU Sensory Experiences program) on tailoring interactions based on the infant's cues. METHOD Twenty-six preterm infants (born ≤32 weeks) had a video recorded oral feeding conducted by a parent in the NICU when the infant was 34-48 weeks postmenstrual age. A certified evaluator scored parent-infant interaction from the videos using the NCAFS. RESULTS Seventeen (65 %) parent-infant dyads scored below the 10th percentile on the total NCAFS score. Despite it being well-understood that parent-infant interaction is related to sociodemographic factors and parental mental health, there were no relationships between these factors and NCAFS scores in this study. Dyads who received enhanced parent education (n = 15) had lower NCAFS scores than dyads receiving usual care (n = 11) (p = 0.01). CONCLUSION It remains unclear if the standard measure of parent-infant interaction, NCAFS, captured positive and negative interactions in context of assessment of a high-risk dyad within the NICU setting. The utility of the NCAFS with preterm infants in the NICU was not supported by this study.

Abstract
The Southern Ocean surrounding Antarctica is a region that is key to a range of climatic and oceanographic processes with worldwide effects, and is characterised by high biological productivity and biodiversity. Since 2013, the International Bathymetric Chart of the Southern Ocean (IBCSO) has represented the most comprehensive compilation of bathymetry for the Southern Ocean south of 60°S. Recently, the IBCSO Project has combined its efforts with the Nippon Foundation – GEBCO Seabed 2030 Project supporting the goal of mapping the world’s oceans by 2030. New datasets initiated a second version of IBCSO (IBCSO v2). This version extends to 50°S (covering approximately 2.4 times the area of seafloor of the previous version) including the gateways of the Antarctic Circumpolar Current and the Antarctic circumpolar frontal systems. Due to increased (multibeam) data coverage, IBCSO v2 significantly improves the overall representation of the Southern Ocean seafloor and resolves many submarine landforms in more detail. This makes IBCSO v2 the most authoritative seafloor map of the area south of 50°S.

Abstract
BackgroundBimekizumab (BKZ) is a monoclonal IgG1 antibody that selectively inhibits IL-17F in addition to IL-17A. BKZ has shown rapid and sustained efficacy and was well tolerated up to 156 weeks (wks) in a phase 2b study in patients (pts) with active ankylosing spondylitis.1,2ObjectivesTo assess efficacy and safety of BKZ vs placebo (PBO) in pts with active non-radiographic axial spondyloarthritis (nr-axSpA) up to Wk 24 in the ongoing pivotal phase 3 study, BE MOBILE 1.MethodsBE MOBILE 1 (NCT03928704) comprises a 16-wk double-blind, PBO-controlled period and 36-wk maintenance period. Pts were aged ≥18 yrs, had BASDAI ≥4 and spinal pain ≥4 at BL, and sacroiliitis on MRI and/or elevated CRP at screening. Pts were randomised 1:1, BKZ 160 mg Q4W:PBO. From Wk 16, all pts received BKZ 160 mg Q4W. Primary and secondary efficacy endpoints were assessed at Wk 16.ResultsOf 254 randomised pts (BKZ: 128; PBO: 126), 244 (96.1%) completed Wk 16, 240 (94.5%) Wk 24. BL characteristics were comparable between groups: mean age 39.4 yrs, symptom duration 9.0 yrs; 54.3% pts male, 77.6% HLA-B27+, 10.6% TNFi-experienced. At Wk 16, the primary (ASAS40: 47.7% BKZ vs 21.4% PBO; p<0.001) and all ranked secondary endpoints were met (Table 1). Responses were rapid with BKZ, including in PBO pts who switched to BKZ at Wk 16, and increased to Wk 24 (Figure 1; Table 1). Substantial reductions of hs-CRP by Wk 2 and MRI SIJ inflammation by Wk 16 were achieved with BKZ vs PBO (Table 1). At Wk 24, >50% of pts initially randomised to BKZ had achieved ASDAS <2.1 (Figure 1).Table 1.Efficacy at Wks 16 and 24BLWk 16Wk 24PBO N=126BKZ 160 mg Q4W N=128PBO N=126BKZ 160 mg Q4W N=128p valuePBO→BKZ 160 mg Q4W N=126BKZ 160 mg Q4W N=128Ranked endpoints in hierarchical orderASAS40* [NRI] n (%)--27 (21.4)61 (47.7)<0.00159 (46.8)67 (52.3)BASDAI CfB† [MI] mean (SE)6.7 (0.1)6.9 (0.1)–1.5 (0.2)–3.1 (0.2)<0.001–3.2 (0.2)–3.4 (0.2)ASAS20† [NRI] n (%)--48 (38.1)88 (68.8)<0.00187 (69.0)96 (75.0)ASAS PR† [NRI] n (%)--9 (7.1)33 (25.8)<0.00135 (27.8)37 (28.9)ASDAS-MI† [NRI] n (%)--9 (7.1)35 (27.3)<0.00137 (29.4)41 (32.0)ASAS 5/6† [NRI] n (%)--21 (16.7)49 (38.3)<0.00151 (40.5)57 (44.5)BASFI CfB† [MI] mean (SE)5.3 (0.2)5.5 (0.2)–1.0 (0.2)–2.5 (0.2)<0.001–2.3 (0.2)–2.8 (0.2)Nocturnal spinal pain CfB† [MI] mean (SE)6.7 (0.2)6.9 (0.2)–1.7 (0.2)–3.6 (0.3)<0.001–3.5 (0.2)–4.0 (0.3)ASQoL CfB† [MI] mean (SE)9.4 (0.4)9.5 (0.4)–2.5 (0.4)–5.2 (0.4)<0.001–4.8 (0.4)–5.7 (0.4)SF-36 PCS CfB† [MI] mean (SE)33.6 (0.8)33.3 (0.7)5.5 (0.7)9.5 (0.7)<0.00110.1 (0.8)10.6 (0.8)Other endpointsdEnthesitis-free state†a [NRI] n (%)--22 (23.9)b48 (51.1)c-40 (43.5)b45 (47.9)cASAS40 in TNFi-experienced [NRI] n (%)--2 (11.8)e6 (60.0)f---ASDAS-CRP CfB [MI] mean (SE)3.7 (0.1)3.8 (0.1)–0.6 (0.1)–1.5 (0.1)-–1.5 (0.1)–1.6 (0.1)hs-CRP, mg/L [MI] geometric mean (median)5.0 (6.5)4.6 (6.1)3.8 (4.1)2.0 (1.8)-2.3 (2.6)1.9 (1.8)MRI spine Berlin CfBg [OC] mean (SD)1.9 (3.2)h1.6 (2.9)i–0.1 (1.7)j–0.7 (2.2)k---SPARCC MRI SIJ score CfBg [OC] mean (SD)10.5 (13.8)l8.5 (10.3)m–1.5 (9.2)n–6.3 (10.0)o---Randomised set. *Primary endpoint; †Secondary endpoint; aMASES=0 in pts with BL MASES >0; bn=92; cn=94; dNominal p values not shown; en=17; fn=10; gIn pts in MRI sub-study; hn=65; in=75; jn=58; kn=73; ln=68; mn=79; nn=60; on=77.Over 16 wks, 80/128 (62.5%) pts had ≥1 TEAE on BKZ vs 71/126 (56.3%) on PBO; most frequent were nasopharyngitis (BKZ: 9.4%; PBO: 4.8%), upper respiratory tract infection (BKZ: 7.0%; PBO: 7.1%) and oral candidiasis (BKZ: 3.1%; PBO: 0%).

Abstract
BackgroundFor classification in juvenile spondyloarthritis (JSpA), it is important to develop cut-offs for active and structural lesions typical of axial disease on MRI that are readily and consistently interpreted. Since the maturing sacroiliac joint (SIJ) looks different from the adult SIJ, the criteria developed for positive MRI in adults may not be applicable in JSpA.ObjectivesAs part of a study developing classification criteria for axial disease in JSpA, we aimed to determine quantitative SIJ imaging lesion cut-offs for inflammatory and structural lesions typical of axial JSpA using majority imaging expert decision as the reference criterion.MethodsSubjects were a retrospective cohort of children with SpA who met the provisional Pediatric Rheumatology International Trials Organization criteria for enthesitis/spondylitis-related juvenile idiopathic arthritis or had a rheumatologist JSpA diagnosis. All subjects had symptom onset prior to age 18 years and underwent MRI as part of a diagnostic evaluation for axial disease. To enable SIJ quadrant-based scoring, all MRIs included semi-coronal slices through the cartilaginous part of the joint on fluid sensitive sequences and on T1-weighted sequences for the assessment of inflammation and structural lesions, respectively. MRIs were reviewed by 6 musculoskeletal imaging experts who were blinded to clinical details. MRI evaluation of the SIJ was based on standardized lesion definitions that were decided by consensus of the central imaging team and represented a mix of definitions from ASAS and the Juvenile Arthritis MRI Score Outcome Measures in Rheumatology working group. Using a web-based interface, raters globally assessed the presence or absence of lesions typical of axial SpA and performed SIJ quadrant or joint based scoring. Lesion scores were generated by averaging the scores of all raters. Sensitivity and specificity of lesion cut-offs were calculated using rater majority (≥4/6 raters) on a global assessment of the presence/absence of active or structural lesions typical of axial SpA with high confidence (confidence of ±3 or stronger on confidence scale from -5, “Definitely No”, to +5, “Definitely Yes”) as the reference standard.ResultsImaging from 243 subjects, 61% male, median age 14.9 years, had sequences available for detailed MRI scoring. Active inflammatory lesion typical of axial disease in JSpA was defined as bone marrow edema (BME) in at least 3 SIJ quadrants (sensitivity 98.6%, specificity 96.5%). For structural lesion typical of axial JSpA, the optimal cut-off was erosion in at least 3 quadrants or at least one of the following lesions in at least 2 SIJ quadrants: sclerosis, fat lesion, backfill, ankylosis (sensitivity 98.6%, specificity 95.5%).ConclusionWe propose data-driven cut-offs for active inflammatory and structural lesions on MRI typical of axial disease in JSpA that have high specificity and sensitivity using central imaging global assessment as the reference standard.Table 1.Performance of cut-offs for inflammatory and structural lesions of axial diseaseCut-offs for number of SIJ quadrants (any location)Sensitivity (95% CI)Specificity (95% CI)Definite active lesionBME score ≥2100 (95.0-100)93.5 (88.7-96.7)BME score ≥398.6 (92.5-100)96.5 (92.5-98.7)BME, same location on ≥3 consecutive slices88.6 (78.7-94.9)98.8 (95.8-99.9)Definite structural lesionErosion ≥295.7 (88-99.1)96.8 (92.7-99)Erosion, same location on ≥2 consecutive slices94.3 (86-98.4)98.1 (94.5-99.6)Erosion ≥391.4 (82.3-96.8)98.7 (95.4-99.8)Sclerosis ≥262.9 (50.5-74.1)98.1 (94.5-99.6)Fat lesion ≥222.9 (13.7-34.4%)98.7 (95.4-99.8%)Backfill ≥220 (11.4-31.3)100 (97.7-100)Ankylosis ≥21.3 (0.2-4.7)100 (94.9-100)ANY of the following in ≥2 SIJ quadrants: erosion, sclerosis, fat lesion, backfill, ankylosis98.6 (92.3-100)93.6 (88.5-96.9)Erosion ≥3 quadrants OR ≥2 quadrants of at least one of the following lesions: sclerosis, fat, backfill, ankylosis98.6 (92.3-100.0)95.5 (91.0-98.2)Disclosure of InterestsPamela F.

Background/Introduction
Caregivers are at high risk of anxiety and depression, and caregiver mental health is linked to higher CVD risk in caregivers over their non-caregiving peers. Most research focuses on caregiver burden as a primary cause for caregiver’s emotional distress, such as anxiety and depression. Other stressors like financial burden are less emphasized, despite widespread documentation of financial burden as a key social determinant of health. We hypothesize financial status predicts anxiety and depression through perceived stress.
Purpose
To identify the relationship between financial status and caregiver anxiety and depression and determine if it is mediated by perceived stress.
Methods
We analyzed cross-sectional data from the Rural Intervention for Caregiver’s Heart Health study. Anxiety was assessed using the Brief Symptom Inventory – Anxiety subscale (range 0 -3.5) and depression was assessed by the Patient Health Questionnaire –9 (range 0 - 27). Financial status was measured with one item that asked participants to rank their financial situation by level of comfort (not enough to make ends meet, enough to make ends meet, and comfortable), and perceived stress measured with Cohen’s Perceived Stress Scale – 4. Analysis was performed separately for the two mental health outcomes using OLS regression and, to test mediation, the PROCESS macro for SPSS and the bootstrapping procedure with 5,000 samples. We included age, gender, marital status, number of people in the household, body mass index, smoking status, and caregiver burden as covariates.
Results
Of the 287 participants, average age was 54 ± 13; 76% were female, 95.8% were Caucasian, and 70.4% were married. Controlling for covariates, caregivers with not enough to make ends meet reported substantially greater depressive symptoms (b=2.22, 95% CI = 0.48 – 3.96) and marginally greater anxiety (b=0.23, 95% CI = -0.02 – 0.47) compared to caregivers who were financially comfortable. These associations were not mediated by perceived stress as hypothesized.
Conclusions
Among caregivers who are at risk for CVD, financial status was important in reporting both depression and to a lesser extent, anxiety however perceived stress does not mediate this relationship. This is interesting as perceived stress is often a target for interventions that focus on reducing depression and anxiety in this population however our analysis emphasizes the importance of financial status alone. When designing interventions to reduce the CVD risk factors of anxiety and depression, more attention should be paid to relieving financial burden.

Background
Muscle wasting is common in patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) and chronic heart failure (HF), which exacerbates cachexia and poor quality of life. However, a gap in clinical translation remains as the mechanisms underlying muscle wasting in DM and HF remain poorly validated, with most evidence assumed from experimental small-animal models.
Purpose
Validate if markers of muscle wasting (e.g., autophagy, proteolysis, myogenesis) were correlated to muscle phenotype and clinical indices in humans with DM and HF.
Method
Male patients with DM (n=4), HF (n=4; NYHA=2), DMHF (n=7; NYHA=2) were included. DM was classified as a HbA1c level ≥48mmol/mol and HF classified as a left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≤40%, with patients on optimised medication. Muscle biopsies of pectoralis major were excised during routine pacemaker surgery and frozen at -80°C for both histological and gene expression analysis. Muscle samples were sectioned, stained, and imaged for fibre cross-sectional area and fibre type. RT-PCR gene expression was conducted for markers of muscle regeneration (myod, myogenin), protein degradation (myostatin and autophagy-related LC3B, ATG7, CTSL), and anabolic signalling (IGF-1). Statistical analysis included ANOVAs and correlation analysis to identify relationships between variables. Values of p<0.05 were accepted as significant.
Results
Groups (DM, HF, DMHF) were not different (P>0.05) in relation to age (79±9, 72±8, 72±10 years) or BMI (24.5±3.6, 28.5±4.2, 29.5±6.0) respectively. Fibre size or fibre type were not different (P>0.05) between groups. In line with this, gene expression for markers of myogenesis and anabolism as well as myostatin were not different (P>0.05) between groups, but a trend in downregulation of the proteolytic autophagy-related genes (LC3B, ATG7, CTSL) in DMHF vs DM or HF was found on average by 21, 36, and 30% respectively. Autophagy-related genes LC3B, ATG7, CTSL were positively correlated (P<0.05) to type IIa fibre numerical density (R=0.82, 0.86, 0.89) and LVEF (R=0.85, 0.92, 0.83), respectively.
Conclusion
Our findings indicate that gene expression of autophagy could represent a robust marker of muscle wasting and cardiac dysfunction in humans with DM and HF. Muscle biopsies from patients with DM and HF identified the proteolytic system of autophagy, important for cellular homeostasis, may be inhibited and this was correlated to fibre phenotype and LVEF. However, the process of muscle wasting in DM and HF within the clinical setting may not necessarily reflect those reported in animal models given various other markers were not changed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Optimal infant and young child feeding practices (IYCFP) reduce childhood stunting and are associated with additional health benefits. In Tanzania, IYCFP are far from optimal where 32% of children under the age of 5 years are stunted. The purpose of this study was to examine whether behavior change communication focused on reducing child undernutrition was associated with improved IYCFP in Tanzania. METHODS A cross-sectional survey was administered to approximately 10,000 households with children under the age of 2 at baseline and endline. Bivariate analyses and logistic regression was used to examine the relationship between exposure to behavior change communication and timely initiation of breastfeeding, exclusive breastfeeding, continued breastfeeding at one year, timely complementary feeding (CF), minimum meal frequency (MMF), minimum dietary diversity (MDD), and minimum acceptable diet (MAD). RESULTS Mothers who heard a radio spot about IYCFP were more likely than mothers who had not heard a radio spot about IYCFP to begin complementary foods at six months. Their children were also more likely to achieve MMF, MDD, and MAD with odds ratios of 2.227 (p = 0.0061), 1.222 (p = 0.0454), 1.618 (p = < .0001), and 1.511 (p = 0.0002), respectively. Mothers who saw a TV spot about IYCFP were more likely to have greater odds of knowing when to begin complementary feeding, feeding their child a minimally diverse diet (4 food groups or more), and serving a minimum acceptable diet with odds ratios of 1.335 (p = 0.0081), 1.360 (p = 0.0003), and 1.268 (p = 0.0156), respectively. CONCLUSION Exposure to behavior change communication in Tanzania was generally associated with some increased knowledge of optimal IYCFP as well as practicing IYCF behaviors. Behavior change communication planners and implementers may want to consider conducting similar campaigns as an important component of behavior change to reduce undernutrition and poor health outcomes in developing settings.
