Abstract
In this study we demonstrate the use of Direct Analysis in Real Time Mass Spectrometry (DART) as a powerful tool for detection of nonoxynol in vaginal fluid post contact with a condom, enabling rapid tracing and added evidences in sexual assault crimes. Vaginal fluid was sampled using cotton swabs and glass rods and measured directly with DART. Sample preparation using water, hexane, methanol, and dichloromethane extraction, was explored for comparison and optimization of signals. Nonoxynol was detected up to eight hours after sampling. Optimal sampling conditions and mass spectrometry parameters are reported and discussed.

Abstract
Background A new 5-tiered grading grouping system has recently been endorsed for reporting of prostate cancer (PCa) grade to better reflect escalating risk of progression and cancer death. While several validations of the new grade groupings have been undertaken, most have involved centralised pathological review by specialist urological pathologists. Methods Participants included 4268 men with non-metastatic PCa diagnosed between 2006 and 2013 from the multi-institutional South Australia Prostate Cancer Clinical Outcomes Collaborative registry. PCa-specific survival and biochemical recurrence-free survival were compared across the five grade groups using multivariable competing risk regression. Results For the entire cohort, risk of PCa death increased with increasing grade groups (at biopsy) Adjusted subdistribution-hazard ratios [sHR] and 95% confidence intervals [95%CI] were: 2.2 (1.5–3.6); 2.5 (1.6–4.2); 4.1 (2.6–6.7) and 8.7 (4.5–14.0) for grade groups II (pattern 3 + 4), III (pattern 4 + 3), IV (total score 8) and V (total score 9–10) respectively, relative to grade group I (total score < =6). Clear gradients in risk of PCa death were observed for radical prostatectomy (RP), but were less clear for those who had radiotherapy (RT) with curative intent and those who were managed conservatively. Likewise, risk of biochemical recurrence increased across grade groups, with a strong and clear gradient for men undergoing RP [sHR (95%CI): 2.0 (1.4–2.8); 3.8 (2.9–5.9); 5.3 (3.5–8.0); 11.2 (6.5–19.2) for grade groups II, III, IV and V respectively, relative to grade group I], and a less clear gradient for men undergoing RT. Conclusion In general, the new five-tiered grade groupings distinguished PCa survival and recurrence outcomes for men with PCa. The absence of a clear gradient for RT may be due to heterogeneity in this patient group.

Abstract
Since 1974, we have more than 20 years experience with cementless rehabitable total hip arthroplasty.The purpose of this work is a long term study of development of this type of fixation about a personal series of 83 hips which benefitted from this type of arthroplasty before 50 years old between 1974 and 1980. MATERIAL AND METHODS The implants used are among the oldest. On the acetabular side, we used the BG spiked acetabular component (Fig. 1), containing 4 teeth for primary fixation, 3 equatorial armatures and a surface treatment. This metal back in two sizes 50 and 54 mm, initially permitted the insertion of a polyethylen insert of an interior diameter of 32 mm with a peripheric thickness of 5.5 mm; since 1979, the insert had a 22.2 mm diameter, assuring 10 mm minimal thickness of. The femoral implant (Fig. 2) for 62 hips was the Huchet prothesis, then in 16 cases, the minimadreporic prothesis composed of a morse cone and a head of 22.2, the Huchet prothesis was one-piece femoral implant.The dominant etiology was coxarthrosis (56 cases) of which 50 % had major dysplasis. The average age at the time of the intervention was 41 years old (18-50 years), the follow-up of this series is 17 years, and 8 months (15-21 years). Resumption of former activities was the rule.Results of the rehabitable pro thesis up to 12.31.1995: Of the 83 cases, the outcome of 55 of them (66.3%) is known : 49 (59%) were examined for this study; the evolution has been documented; 28 (33.7%) were uncontactable, 6 patients (7.3%) were deceased between 8 and 9 years following the operation, without having had the hip revised.Among the 49 protheses which were evaluated, 22 (44.9%) have not been revised to date. Clinically, the function is normal and there are no radiological signs of attrition of the insert or mobilisation of implants. There are 10 Huchet Protheses and 12 minimadreporic protheses in this group. The average age at the time of the intervention was 42 years old (30-50 years old), the follow-up was 16 years and 7 months (15-19 years) (Fig. 3a-d).27 hips (51%) needed to be revised, but the causes of reoperationn include different reasons tied to the failure of biological fixation but particularly to errors in the initial concept of the Huchet prothesis.Reoperation linked to the failure of the biological fixation: Out of 7 acetabular implant reoperations, one was carried out systematically on a cup which was perfectly bone-integrated during the changing of a femoral component, 3 were necessary due to perforation (attrition of the insert). Only 3 acetabular implants (6.1%) required reoperation for symptomatic loosening.Four femoral implants (8.6%) have been taken out because of failure of biological fixation between 2 and 11 years follow-up. Finally, for one patient the persistance of the incapacitating crural pain which lasted for more than one year led to the removal of the femoral stem, nevertheless perfectly integrated.Reoperation linked to the concept of the Huchet prothesis: These were undertaken in two sets of circumstances.Changing only the polyethylene insert was only called for in the Huchet prosthesis and concerned 18 hips (36.7%); the delay to reoperation varied from 11 to 18 years with an average of 14 years delay. Changing of the insert had a simple short post-operative outcome and functional recuperation was between 6 and 8 weeks (Fig. 4a-c).Removal for perforative attrition of polyethylene insert causing metal-to-metal wear between head and metal back. Five Huchet prostheses are included in this group, with an average delay to reoperation of 16 years and 3 months (14-19 years). COMMENTS This retrospective study with a 66.3 % rate of re-examination permits three types of comments.The principal cause of revision (23 cases), is linked to polyethylene attrition and is only found in the group with Huchet prosthesis. More than the quality of the polyethylene used at this time, it is its thickness in contact with a 32 mm head which led to the complete removal of the prosthesis in 10.2% of the cases.The second comment argues for the modularisation of the femoral implant. The presence of a stem with a cone and a removable head would have avoided the removal of 5 perfectly bone-integrated femoral implants. Certainly, the literature demonstrates the risk of corrosion generated by the morse cone but it is up to the manufacturers to improve their procedures.Finally, the third comment concerns the current state of the long term of the biological fixation by rehabilitation with surface treatment. With 17 years 8 months follow-up (15-21 years), 81.6% of components are still fixed, the real failure of the bony ingrowth of 10.2% is comparable to the rate of failure in long term follow-up of totally cemented prothesis found in young subjects. CONCLUSION With more than 20 years follow-up for the older cases, the concept of the biological fixation of an implant by bony ingrowth using surface treatment seems to be very reliable.The experience of this long term study argues for the thickness of polyethylene to be at least 10 mm for all metal back acetabular component and the future of this kind of implant seems to lie in modularisation made possible by the morse cone which would allow the replacement of the bearing surfaces.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: While many cancer patients are affected by weight loss, others tend to gain weight, which may impact prognosis and risk of recurrence and of second cancer. The aim of this prospective study was to investigate weight variation between before and after cancer diagnosis and socio-demographic, economic, lifestyle and clinical factors associated with moderate-to-severe weight gain.
Methods: 1051 incident cases of first primary cancer were diagnosed in the NutriNet-Santé cohort between 2009 and 2015. Weight was prospectively collected every 6 months since subjects' inclusion (i.e. an average of 2y before diagnosis). Mean weights before and after cancer diagnosis were compared with paired Student's t-test. Factors associated with moderate-to-severe weight gain (≥5% of initial weight) were investigated by multivariable logistic regression.
Results: Weight loss was observed in men (-3.54kg in those who lost weight, p=0.0002) and in colorectal cancer patients (-3.94kg, p=0.0012). Weight gain was observed in breast and skin cancers (2.83kg, p=0.047, and 2.96kg, p=0.03 respectively). Women (OR=1.99[1.18-3.35]), younger patients (OR=1.78[1.05-3.03]), those with lower education (OR=2.17[1.07-4.37]), those with excess weight before diagnosis (OR=1.53[1.02-2.30]) and those who stopped smoking after diagnosis (OR=4.60[2.06-10.25]) were more likely to experience moderate-to-severe weight gain. In breast cancer patients, induced menopause was associated with weight gain (OR=4.12[1.76-9.67]), but no association was detected for tumor characteristics or treatments.
Conclusion: This large prospective cohort provided original results on weight variation between before and after cancer diagnosis, highlighting different weight trajectories. Socio-demographic and economic factors appeared to strongly influence the risk of weight gain, illustrating social inequalities in health.

Abstract
Purpose: Little is known about the association between myeloid-derived suppressor cell (MDSC) subsets and various chemokines in patients with renal cell carcinoma (RCC) or the factors that draw MDSC into tumor parenchyma.Experimental Design: We analyzed polymorphonuclear MDSC (PMN-MDSC), monocytic MDSC (M-MDSC), and immature MDSC (I-MDSC) from the parenchyma and peripheral blood of 48 patients with RCC, isolated at nephrectomy. We analyzed levels of IL1β, IL8, CXCL5, Mip-1α, MCP-1, and Rantes. Furthermore, we performed experiments in a Renca murine model to assess therapeutic synergy between CXCR2 and anti-PD1 and to elucidate the impact of IL1β blockade on MDSC.Results: Parenchymal PMN-MDSC have a positive correlation with IL1β, IL8, CXCL5, and Mip-1α, and I-MDSC correlate with IL8 and CXCL5. Furthermore, peripheral PMN-MDSC correlate with tumor grade. Given that PMN-MDSC express CXCR2 and parenchymal PMN-MDSC correlated with IL8 and CXCL5, we assessed the response of CXCR2 blockade with or without anti-PD1. Combination therapy reduced tumor weight and enhanced CD4+ and CD8+ T-cell infiltration. In addition, anti-IL1β decreased PMN-MDSC and M-MDSC in the periphery, PMN-MDSC in the tumor, and peripheral CXCL5 and KC. Anti-IL1β also delayed tumor growth.Conclusions: Parenchymal PMN-MDSC have a positive correlation with IL1β, IL8, CXCL5, and Mip-1α, suggesting they may attract PMN-MDSC into the tumor. Peripheral PMN-MDSC correlate with tumor grade, suggesting prognostic significance. Anti-CXCR2 and anti-PD1 synergized to reduce tumor weight and enhanced CD4+ and CD8+ T-cell infiltration in a Renca murine model, suggesting that CXCR2+ PMN-MDSC are important in reducing activity of anti-PD1 antibody. Finally, anti-IL1β decreases MDSC and delayed tumor growth, suggesting a potential target for MDSC inhibition. Clin Cancer Res; 23(9); 2346-55. ©2016 AACR.

Abstract
This work explores the relationship between theoretically predicted excitation energies and experimental molar absorption spectra as they pertain to environmental aquatic photochemistry. An overview of pertinent Quantum Chemical descriptions of sunlight-driven electronic transitions in organic pollutants is presented. Second, a combined molecular dynamics (MD), time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT) analysis of the ultraviolet to visible (UV-Vis) absorption spectra of six model organic compounds is presented alongside accurate experimental data. The functional relationship between the experimentally observed molar absorption spectrum and the discrete quantum transitions is examined. A rigorous comparison of the accuracy of the theoretical transition energies (ΔES0→Sn) and oscillator strength (fS0→Sn) is afforded by the probabilistic convolution and deconvolution procedure described. This method of deconvolution of experimental spectra using a Gaussian Mixture Model combined with Bayesian Information Criteria (BIC) to determine the mean (μ) and standard deviation (σ) as well as the number of observed singlet to singlet transition energy state distributions. This procedure allows a direct comparison of the one-electron (quantum) transitions that are the result of quantum chemical calculations and the ensemble of non-adiabatic quantum states that produce the macroscopic effect of a molar absorption spectrum. Poor agreement between the vertical excitation energies produced from TD-DFT calculations with five different functionals (CAM-B3LYP, PBE0, M06-2X, BP86, and LC-BLYP) suggest a failure of the theory to capture the low energy, environmentally important, electronic transitions in our model organic pollutants. However, the method of explicit-solvation of the organic solute using the quantum Effective Fragment Potential (EFP) in a density functional molecular dynamics trajectory simulation shows promise as a robust model of the hydrated organic pollutant. Furthermore, the described protocol can be extended using higher-level equilibration and vertical excitation methods to increase the numerical accuracy and describe multi-reference electronic transitions. Finally, a measure of the accuracy of theoretically derived absorption spectra is discussed as a tool to further develop our capacity to produce accurate a priori simulations of sunlight-driven photochemistry in natural waters.

Abstract
Humanin is the first newly discovered peptide encoded in the mitochondrial genome in over three decades. It is the first member of a novel class of mitochondrial derived peptides. This small, 24 amino acid peptide was initially discovered to have neuroprotective effects and subsequent experiments have shown that it is beneficial in a diverse number of disease models including stroke, cardiovascular disease, and cancer. Over a decade ago, our lab found that humanin bound IGFBP-3 and more recent studies have found it to decrease circulating IGF-I levels. In turn, IGF-I also seems to regulate humanin levels and in this review, we cover the known interaction between humanin and IGF-I. Although the exact mechanism for how humanin and IGF-I regulate each other still needs to be elucidated, it is clear that humanin is a new player in IGF-I signaling.

Abstract
Neuropsychiatric manifestations of systemic lupus erythematosus (NPSLE) are among the main causes of morbidity and mortality attributed to lupus activity. Conventional NPSLE treatment combines CS and immunosuppressants, but some symptoms do not respond. We retrospectively evaluated the adjunction of plasma exchanges (PE) to treat 13 NPSLE flares occurring in 10 patients (mean age, 30 years) between 1989 and 2002. NP manifestations were the first SLE symptoms for seven patients, with a mean of 3.2 NP manifestations/flare. All patients received CS and cyclophosphamide pulses. A mean of 15 PE/flare were performed. All patients improved within a mean of 3 (median: 2.5; range: 1.5—8) weeks thereafter. Complete remissions of 7/13 flares were obtained within a mean of 7 (median: 4; range: 2—22) weeks. Partial remissions were achieved for the remaining six flares, characterized by new NP manifestations during three and insufficient control of the others. Other SLE manifestations regressed for all patients with the mean European consensus lupus activity measurement score declining from pretreatment 6.9 to 1.2. A regimen combining CS, cyclophosphamide and PE is effective against severe NPSLE, with acceptable toxicity. Lupus (2007) 16, 817—822.

Abstract
Recombinant human GH (rhGH) has been in use for 30 years, and over that time its safety and efficacy in children and adults has been subject to considerable scrutiny. In 2001, a statement from the GH Research Society (GRS) concluded that 'for approved indications, GH is safe'; however, the statement highlighted a number of areas for on-going surveillance of long-term safety, including cancer risk, impact on glucose homeostasis, and use of high dose pharmacological rhGH treatment. Over the intervening years, there have been a number of publications addressing the safety of rhGH with regard to mortality, cancer and cardiovascular risk, and the need for long-term surveillance of the increasing number of adults who were treated with rhGH in childhood. Against this backdrop of interest in safety, the European Society of Paediatric Endocrinology (ESPE), the GRS, and the Pediatric Endocrine Society (PES) convened a meeting to reappraise the safety of rhGH. The ouput of the meeting is a concise position statement.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Laparoscopic resection of ovarian cysts > ten cm in diameter can be technically challenging. Laparotomy is often the preferred surgical approach. Minimal access surgery in gynaecology has been compared to laparotomy and has been shown to result in shorter patient hospital length of stay, reduced post-operative pain, and faster return to routine activities. Minimal access surgical techniques for ovarian masses > ten cm are therefore of interest as they may offer significant benefits. OBJECTIVE To assess the feasibility of a novel surgical technique using a combination of both laparoscopy and mini-laparotomy in the surgical management of ovarian cystic masses > ten cm. Outcomes including hospital length of stay, return to usual activities, post-operative complications, and patient satisfaction were assessed. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 17 patients who underwent surgery by a gynaecologic oncologist at a tertiary institution in Western Australia from June 2012 to September 2013 were selected. The risk of malignancy index was used to triage patients. A mini-laparotomy incision was utilised to downsize the mass and to retrieve the specimen, while the remainder of the procedure was performed by laparoscopy. Medical records were used to collect post-operative and follow up data. Patient satisfaction at six weeks post-surgery was analysed by means of a telephone questionnaire. RESULTS Patients had an average age of 52 years. They were more likely to be post-menopausal and to have a raised body mass index (BMI) (average BMI 29.6 kg/m2). All 17 patients had an ovarian mass larger than ten cm in maximal diameter. Fourteen of the 17 cases were benign. Three patients were diagnosed with early stage mucinous ovarian tumours of low malignant potential. There were no malignancies. The procedure was associated with a high level of patient satisfaction. CONCLUSION Combined mini-laparotomy and laparoscopy to resect ovarian masses > ten cm has potential benefits for patients in terms of faster recovery, lower analgesia requirements, and improved cosmetic outcome. Larger prospective studies are required to adequately assess complication rates, quality of life, and long-term outcomes in those patients with ovarian tumours of low malignant potential.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To describe the clinical-biological phenotype of ANCA-associated vasculitides (AAV) according to tobacco consumption. METHODS We conducted a descriptive study to describe that phenotype at diagnosis according to tobacco use. AAV patients entered in the French Vasculitis Study Group database with data on smoking habits were analysed. The clinical-biological phenotypes at diagnosis were compared according to current tobacco use (current smokers) or not (including previous and never smokers). RESULTS AAV diagnoses were: granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA) for 583 (50%), eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (EGPA) for 326 (28%) and microscopic polyangiitis (MPA) for 256 (22%). Among them, 973 patients (84%) never smoked, 116 (10%) were previous smokers and only 76 (6%) were current smokers. Current smokers were younger age (p=0.01), male gender (p=0.004), less frequently EGPA (p=0.017) and MPA (p=0.036), and had less frequent kidney involvement (p=0.10). Among GPA patients, current smokers, compared to non-current smokers, were younger age (p=0.02), male gender (p=0.08), more frequent skin involvement (p=0.03) and less frequent ENT involvement (p=0.06). Among EGPA patients, current smokers, compared to non-current smokers, were also younger (p=0.028) and had less frequent constitutional symptoms (p=0.02), arthralgias (p=0.04), renal involvement (p=0.025) and MPO-ANCA (p=0.02). Finally, analysis of MPA patients was impossible because only 6 (2%) were current smokers. CONCLUSIONS These results suggest that tobacco use could differentially affect GPA and EGPA clinical-biological phenotypes, and support the role of environmental exposures in AAV development and its phenotype.
