Abstract
OBJECTIVE As a result of the coronavirus-19 disease (COVID-19) pandemic, Australia adopted emergency measures on 22 March 2020. This study reports the effect of the COVID-19 lockdown on appetite and overeating in Australian adults during the first month of emergency measures. DESIGN This study reports analysis of data from the population-based, self-completed survey. The main outcome measure was an item from the Patient Health Questionnaire 9 asking: 'Over the past 2 weeks, how often have you been bothered by poor appetite or overeating?'. Data on sociodemographic factors, symptoms of anxiety and depression, and the impact of COVID-19 and lockdown were also collected. Multivariable logistic regression was used to examine associations with poor appetite or overeating. SETTING An anonymous online survey available from 3 April to 2 May 2020. PARTICIPANTS A total of 13 829 Australian residents aged 18 years or over. RESULTS The weighted prevalence of being bothered by poor appetite or overeating in the past 2 weeks was 53·6 %, with 11·6 % (95 % CI 10·6, 12·6) of the cohort reporting poor appetite or overeating nearly every day. High levels of anxiety, concern about contracting COVID-19, being in lockdown with children and reporting a severe impact of the lockdown were associated with increased odds of poor appetite or overeating. CONCLUSIONS Given the widespread prevalence of being bothered by poor appetite or overeating, universal public health interventions to address emotion-focused or situational eating during periods of lockdown may be appropriate.

Abstract
Non-invasive biomarkers will enable widespread screening and early diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). We hypothesized that the considerable loss of brain tissue in AD will result in detection of brain lipid components in urine, and that these will change in concert with CSF and brain biomarkers of AD. We examined urine dicarboxylic acids (DCA) of carbon length 3–10 to reflect products of oxidative damage and energy generation or balance that may account for changes in brain function in AD. Mean C4-C5 DCAs were lower and mean C7-C10 DCAs were higher in the urine from AD compared to cognitively healthy (CH) individuals. Moreover, mean C4-C5 DCAs were lower and mean C7-C9 were higher in urine from CH individuals with abnormal compared to normal CSF amyloid and Tau levels; i.e., the apparent urine changes in AD also appeared to be present in CH individuals that have CSF risk factors of early AD pathology. In examining the relationship between urine DCAs and AD biomarkers, we found short chain DCAs positively correlated with CSF Aβ42, while C7-C10 DCAs negatively correlated with CSF Aβ42 and positively correlated with CSF Tau levels. Furthermore, we found a negative correlation of C7-C10 DCAs with hippocampal volume (p < 0.01), which was not found in the occipital volume. Urine measures of DCAs have an 82% ability to predict cognitively healthy participants with normal CSF amyloid/Tau. These data suggest that urine measures of increased lipoxidation and dysfunctional energy balance reflect early AD pathology from brain and CSF biomarkers. Measures of urine DCAs may contribute to personalized healthcare by indicating AD pathology and may be utilized to explore population wellness or monitor the efficacy of therapies in clinical trials.

Abstract
The European Position Paper on Rhinosinusitis and Nasal Polyps 2020 is the update of similar evidence based position papers published in 2005 and 2007 and 2012. The core objective of the EPOS2020 guideline is to provide revised, up-to-date and clear evidence-based recommendations and integrated care pathways in ARS and CRS. EPOS2020 provides an update on the literature published and studies undertaken in the eight years since the EPOS2012 position paper was published and addresses areas not extensively covered in EPOS2012 such as paediatric CRS and sinus surgery. EPOS2020 also involves new stakeholders, including pharmacists and patients, and addresses new target users who have become more involved in the management and treatment of rhinosinusitis since the publication of the last EPOS document, including pharmacists, nurses, specialised care givers and indeed patients themselves, who employ increasing self-management of their condition using over the counter treatments. The document provides suggestions for future research in this area and offers updated guidance for definitions and outcome measurements in research in different settings. EPOS2020 contains chapters on definitions and classification where we have defined a large number of terms and indicated preferred terms. A new classification of CRS into primary and secondary CRS and further division into localized and diffuse disease, based on anatomic distribution is proposed. There are extensive chapters on epidemiology and predisposing factors, inflammatory mechanisms, (differential) diagnosis of facial pain, allergic rhinitis, genetics, cystic fibrosis, aspirin exacerbated respiratory disease, immunodeficiencies, allergic fungal rhinosinusitis and the relationship between upper and lower airways. The chapters on paediatric acute and chronic rhinosinusitis are totally rewritten. All available evidence for the management of acute rhinosinusitis and chronic rhinosinusitis with or without nasal polyps in adults and children is systematically reviewed and integrated care pathways based on the evidence are proposed. Despite considerable increases in the amount of quality publications in recent years, a large number of practical clinical questions remain. It was agreed that the best way to address these was to conduct a Delphi exercise . The results have been integrated into the respective sections. Last but not least, advice for patients and pharmacists and a new list of research needs are included.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Less is known about the impact of non-hip non-vertebral fractures (NHNV) on early death. This study demonstrated increased risk of dying following hip and NHNV fractures which was further increased by a subsequent fracture. This highlights the importance of early intervention to prevent both initial and subsequent fractures and improve survival. INTRODUCTION Osteoporotic fractures are a major health concern. Limited evidence exists on their impact on mortality in ageing populations. This study examined the contribution of initial fracture type and subsequent fracture on mortality in a Norwegian population that has one of the highest rates of fractures. METHODS The Tromsø Study is a prospective population-based cohort in Norway. Women and men aged 50+ years were followed from 1994 to 2010. All incident hip and non-hip non-vertebral (NHNV) fractures were registered. NHNV fractures were classified as either proximal or distal. Information on self-reported co-morbidities, lifestyle factors, general health and education level was collected. Multivariable Cox models were used to quantify mortality risk with incident and subsequent fractures analysed as time-dependent variables. RESULTS Of 5214 women and 4620 men, 1549 (30%) and 504 (11%) sustained a fracture, followed by 589 (38%) and 254 (51%) deaths over 10,523 and 2821 person-years, respectively. There were 403 (26%) subsequent fractures in women and 68 (13%) in men. Hip fracture was associated with a two-fold increase in mortality risk (HR 2.05, 95% CI 1.73-2.42 in women and 2.49, 95% CI 2.00-3.11 in men). Proximal NHNV fractures were associated with 49% and 81% increased mortality risk in women and men (HR 1.49, 95% CI 1.21-1.84 and 1.81, 95% CI 1.37-2.41), respectively. Distal NHNV fractures were not associated with mortality. Subsequent fracture was associated with 89% and 77% increased mortality risk in women and men (HR 1.89, 95% CI 1.52-2.35 and 1.77, 95% CI 1.16-2.71), respectively. CONCLUSION Hip, proximal NHNV and subsequent fractures were significantly associated with increased mortality risk in the elderly, highlighting the importance of early intervention.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Early detection of inflamed atherosclerotic lesions by molecular imaging might improve risk assessment beyond that of vascular stenosis and plaque morphology imaging, and improve the clinical management of high-risk patients.
Purpose
To target the key features of unstable atherosclerotic lesions, we studied the feasibility of our radiotracer, based on modified human serum albumin (HSA), to identify inflamed atherosclerotic lesions by in vivo molecular imaging.
Methods
We applied a maleylated HSA (Mal-HSA) probe, recognised by scavenger receptors on macrophages, in an experimental in vivo imaging study of atherosclerosis. Mal-HSA was coupled with a positron-emittingmetal ion, Zirconium-89 (89Zr). The targeting potential of this probe was evaluated and compared with unspecific 89Zr-HSA and 18F-FDG in a mouse model of atherosclerosis (Apoe−/−, n=22) and compared with wild-type (WT) mice (C57BL/6, n=21) as controls. Radiotracer accumulation in the aortic arch was analysed in vivo by the fusion of positron emission tomography–magnetic resonance imaging (PET-MRI), radiotracer bio-distribution was measured ex vivo by gamma counter, and plaque uptake was evaluated by phosphor imaging (PI) autoradiography (ARG).
Results
PET-MRI, gamma counter measurements, and PI-ARG showed the accumulation of 89Zr-Mal-HSA in the atherosclerotic lesions of Apoe−/− mice. The maximum standardised uptake value (SUVmax) for 89Zr-Mal-HSA at 16 and 20 weeks were 26% and 20% higher (P<0.05) in Apoe−/− mice than control WT mice, whereas no difference in SUVmax was found for 18F-FDG in the same animals. 89Zr-Mal-HSA uptake in the aorta as evaluated by gamma counter 48 h post-injection was 32% higher (P<0.01) for Apoe−/− mice compared to WT mice, and the aorta-to-blood ratio was 10-fold higher (P<0.001) for 89Zr-Mal-HSA compared with unspecific 89Zr-HSA. HSA probes were mainly distributed to the liver, spleen, kidneys, bone and lymph nodes. The PI-ARG results corroborated the PET and gamma counter measurements, showing higher accumulation of 89Zr-Mal-HSA in the aortas of Apoe−/− mice compared to WT mice; 9.4±1.4 vs 0.8±0.3% (P<0.001).
Conclusions
The modified HSA-based radiotracer showed in vivo targeting of inflamed atherosclerotic lesions of mouse aorta, which could also be verified ex vivo. 89Zr-Mal-HSA seems to be a promising diagnostic tool for the identification of vascular inflammation. Further methodological studies are needed to verify its applicability for detecting rupture-prone plaques.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Investigation into the results of robot-assisted Whipple resection in the Netherlands. These results were compared with those of open Whipple procedures on the basis of recent large case series of patients. DESIGN Case series of patients and systematic literature review. METHOD We carried out a post hoc analysis of prospectively collected data on the first 100 consecutive patients who underwent robot-assisted Whipple procedures in the period from March 2016 until March 2018 at the Erasmus MC, the Maasstad hospital or the Regional Academic Cancer Centre Utrecht. We were mainly interested in surgery characteristics and postoperative outcomes. We compared our results with those of case series of patients with more than 500 open Whipple procedures carried out in a single hospital, published in the last 5 years. RESULTS There were one or more serious complications in 22 patients (22%) and 2 patients (2%) developed multiple organ failure. 7 patients (7%) underwent reoperation. There was no postoperative mortality. In 14 case series (n = 12,708), complications occurred in 38% of patients and 7% of patients underwent reoperation. Mean mortality rate was 3%. CONCLUSION Our findings show that robotic Whipple procedures can be carried out safely in the Netherlands. The number of complications and mortality rates are comparable with results of large case series of patients who underwent open Whipple procedures in a centre of expertise.
