Abstract
We present a search for the direct production of a light pseudoscalar a decaying into two photons with the Belle II detector at the SuperKEKB collider. We search for the process e^{+}e^{-}→γa, a→γγ in the mass range 0.2<m_{a}<9.7 GeV/c^{2} using data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of (445±3) pb^{-1}. Light pseudoscalars interacting predominantly with standard model gauge bosons (so-called axionlike particles or ALPs) are frequently postulated in extensions of the standard model. We find no evidence for ALPs and set 95% confidence level upper limits on the coupling strength g_{aγγ} of ALPs to photons at the level of 10^{-3} GeV^{-1}. The limits are the most restrictive to date for 0.2<m_{a}<1 GeV/c^{2}.

Abstract
Theories beyond the standard model often predict the existence of an additional neutral boson, the Z^{'}. Using data collected by the Belle II experiment during 2018 at the SuperKEKB collider, we perform the first searches for the invisible decay of a Z^{'} in the process e^{+}e^{-}→μ^{+}μ^{-}Z^{'} and of a lepton-flavor-violating Z^{'} in e^{+}e^{-}→e^{±}μ^{∓}Z^{'}. We do not find any excess of events and set 90% credibility level upper limits on the cross sections of these processes. We translate the former, in the framework of an L_{μ}-L_{τ} theory, into upper limits on the Z^{'} coupling constant at the level of 5×10^{-2}-1 for M_{Z^{'}}≤6 GeV/c^{2}.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Cardiac allograft rejection is known to have a profound impact on graft survival and mortality after heart transplant. Previous data on the efficacy of extracorporeal photopheresis (ECP) in the management of cardiac allograft rejection is encouraging. Though, clear evidence on the exact indication and data regarding its effect on distinct lymphocyte subtypes are still lacking. Based on their cytokine production, both helper and cytotoxic T cells can differentiate into either regulatory cells participating in the suppression of rejection or into effector cells responsible for its maintenance. Regulatory T cells are essential for the termination of rejection, while B lymphocytes and natural killer (NK) cells contribute to it.
Purpose
We aimed to investigate the anti-rejection efficacy and the impact of ECP on peripheral blood lymphocyte subclasses in adult heart transplant recipients.
Methods
In a retrospective analysis of 12 consecutive patients treated with ECP for cardiac allograft rejection between 2013 and 2019, we examined the grade of rejection in endomyocardial biopsies (EMB) based on the International Society for Heart and Lung Transplantation classification. We analysed the absolute counts and the percentages of helper, cytotoxic and regulatory T cells, B lymphocytes and NK cells with fluorescence activated cell sorting. Measurements were performed both before and after the ECP treatment period. Data values were given as either mean±standard deviation or median [min–max].
Results
The patients underwent 26 [2–39] ECP treatments in addition to standard immunosuppressant therapy. Whereas grade 2R cellular rejection was detected in 83% of the cases prior to initiating ECP, none of the examined EMB specimen revealed rejection greater than grade 1R cellular rejection post ECP therapy. The average grade of cellular rejection improved significantly (1.25±0.45 vs. 0.50±0.53; p=0.022). The absolute count and the percentage of helper T cells increased significantly post ECP therapy (0.34 G/l±0.26 G/l vs. 0.51 G/l±0.39 G/l; p=0.018 and 3.43%±2.24% vs. 5.98%±3.64%; p=0.017, respectively). There was also a significant rise in the percentage of cytotoxic T cells (2.33%±1.46% vs. 4.16±2.98%; p=0.027). We noticed an almost significant twofold increase in the percentage of regulatory T cells on completion of the ECP therapy (0.20%±0.22% vs. 0.37%±0.20%; p=0.060). Neither B lymphocyte nor NK cell counts revealed any significant changes.
Conclusion
ECP was effective in reducing the severity of cardiac allograft rejection episodes. The significant decrease in rejection rates might be indicative of the predominance of anti-inflammatory helper and cytotoxic T cell subpopulations and the increase of regulatory T cell count post ECP therapy. However, discussion of the results are limited by small sample size and the effect of medical therapy on the lymphocytes.

Abstract
AIMS To report 5 year outcome and late toxicity in prostate cancer patients treated with image-guided tomotherapy with a moderate hypofractionated simultaneous integrated boost approach. MATERIALS AND METHODS In total, 211 prostate cancer patients, 78 low risk, 53 intermediate risk and 80 high risk were treated between 2005 and 2011. Intermediate- and high-risk patients received 51.8 Gy to pelvic lymph nodes and concomitant simultaneous integrated boost to prostate up to 74.2 Gy/28 fractions, whereas low-risk patients were treated to the prostate only with 71.4 Gy/28 fractions. Daily megavoltage computed tomography (MVCT) image guidance was applied. Androgen deprivation was prescribed for a median duration of 6 months for low-risk patients (for downsizing), 12 months for intermediate-risk and 36 months for high-risk patients. The 5 year biochemical relapse-free survival (bRFS), cancer-specific survival (CSS), overall survival and late gastrointestinal and genitourinary CTCAE.v3 toxicity were assessed. The effect of several clinical variables on both outcome and gastrointestinal/genitourinary toxicity was tested by uni- and multivariate Cox regression analyses. RESULTS After a median follow-up of 5 years, the late toxicity actuarial incidence was: genitourinary ≥ grade 2: 20.2%; genitourinary ≥ grade 3: 5.9%; gastrointestinal ≥ grade 2: 17%; gastrointestinal ≥ grade 3: 6.3% with lower prevalence at the last follow-up visit (≥ grade 3: genitourinary: 1.9%; gastrointestinal: 1.9%). Major predictors of ≥ grade 3 genitourinary and gastrointestinal late toxicity were genitourinary acute toxicity ≥ grade 2 (hazard ratio: 4.9) and previous surgery (hazard ratio: 3.4). The overall 5 year bRFS was 93.7% (low risk: 94.6%; intermediate risk: 96.2%; high risk: 91.1%), overall survival and CSS were 88.6% (low risk: 90.5%; intermediate risk: 87.4%; high risk: 87%) and 97.5% (low risk: 98.7%; intermediate risk: 95%; high risk: 94.3%), respectively. Risk classes and androgen deprivation were not significantly correlated with either bRFS, overall survival or CSS. Twelve patients experienced a biochemical relapse but none experienced clinically proven local and/or pelvic recurrence. CONCLUSION A satisfactory 5 year outcome with an acceptable toxicity profile was observed. The combination of image-guided radiotherapy-intensity-modulated radiotherapy, high equivalent 2 Gy dose (EQD2) with a moderate hypofractionated approach and extensive prophylactic lymph node irradiation also leads to very good outcome in high-risk patients.

Abstract
Abstract
Objective. A disturbance of sensorimotor gating measured by prepulse inhibition of acoustic startle (PPI) is one of the best tests of the schizophrenia-like behavior. Vasopressin was implicated in the development of schizophrenia; therefore, the naturally occurring vasopressin-deficient Brattleboro rat has been suggested to be a reliable non-pharmacological animal model. However, previous studies focusing on PPI deficit did not use proper control and despite clear gender differences in the development of the disorder, the effect of gender has been mostly neglected.
Methods. First, we compared the „noise” and „tone” type prepulse at 73-77-81 dB intensity during the light or dark phase using small (~150 g) or big (~500 g) Wistar rats. The test parameters were validated by a pharmacological schizophrenia model (30 mg/kg ketamine i.p.). Than male, female, and lactating vasopressin-deficient animals were compared with +/+ ones.
Results. We established that the prepulse “noise” type is not optimal for PPI testing. The cycle of the day as well as the body weight had no effect on PPI. Even if we compared vasopressin-deficient animals with their closely related +/+ controls, the PPI deficiency was visible with more pronounced effect at 77 dB prepulse intensity similarly to pharmacological schizophrenia model. Despite our expectation, the gender as well as lactation had no effect on the vasopressin-deficiency induced PPI deficit.
Conclusions. The present data confirmed and extended our previous studies that vasopressin-deficient rat is a good model of schizophrenia. It seems that female as well as lactating Brattleboro rats are useful tools for testing putative novel antipsychotics in line with special attention required for schizophrenic women.

Abstract
Nowadays, genome-wide association studies (GWAS) and genomic selection (GS) methods which use genome-wide marker data for phenotype prediction are of much potential interest in plant breeding. However, to our knowledge, no studies have been performed yet on the predictive ability of these methods for structured traits when using training populations with high levels of genetic diversity. Such an example of a highly heterozygous, perennial species is grapevine. The present study compares the accuracy of models based on GWAS or GS alone, or in combination, for predicting simple or complex traits, linked or not with population structure. In order to explore the relevance of these methods in this context, we performed simulations using approx 90,000 SNPs on a population of 3,000 individuals structured into three groups and corresponding to published diversity grapevine data. To estimate the parameters of the prediction models, we defined four training populations of 1,000 individuals, corresponding to these three groups and a core collection. Finally, to estimate the accuracy of the models, we also simulated four breeding populations of 200 individuals. Although prediction accuracy was low when breeding populations were too distant from the training populations, high accuracy levels were obtained using the sole core-collection as training population. The highest prediction accuracy was obtained (up to 0.9) using the combined GWAS-GS model. We thus recommend using the combined prediction model and a core-collection as training population for grapevine breeding or for other important economic crops with the same characteristics.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate, in prostate cancer (PCa) patients the potential of (11)C-choline PET/CT as a guide to helical tomotherapy (HTT) of lymph-node (LN) relapses with simultaneous integrated boost (SIB). The efficacy and feasibility of HTT in terms of acute toxicity were assessed. METHODS We enrolled 83 PCa patients (mean age 68 years, range 51 - 82 years) with biochemical recurrence after radical primary treatment (mean serum PSA 7.61 ng/ml, range 0.37 - 187.00 ng/ml; PSA0) who showed pathological findings on (11)C-choline PET/CT only at the LN site. (11)C-Choline PET/CT was performed for restaging and then for radiation treatment planning (PET/CT0). Of the 83 patients, 8 experienced further LN relapse, of whom 5 were retreated once and 3 were retreated twice (total 94 radiotherapy treatments). All pelvic and/or abdominal LNs positive on PET/CT0 were treated with high doses using SIB. Doses were in the range 36 - 74 Gy administered in 28 fractions. After the end of HTT (mean 83 days, range 16 - 365 days), serum PSA was measured in all patients (PSA1) and compared with PSA0 to evaluate early biochemical response. In 47 patients PET/CT was repeated (PET/CT1) to assess metabolic responses at the treated areas. Toxicity criteria of the Radiation Therapy Oncology Group (RTOG) were used to assess acute toxicity. RESULTS PET/CT0 revealed pathological LNs in the pelvis in 49 patients, pathological LNs in the abdomen in 15 patients pathological LNs in both the pelvis and abdomen in 18 patients, and pathological LNs in the pelvis or abdomen and other sites in 12 patients. All these sites were treated with HTT. With respect to PSA0, PSA1 (mean 6.28 ng/ml, range 0.00 - 220.46 ng/ml) showed a complete biochemical response after 66 of the 94 HTT treatments, a partial response after 12 treatments, stable disease after 1 treatment and progression of disease after 15 treatments. Of the 47 patients receiving PET/CT1, 20 showed a complete metabolic response at the treated area, 22 a partial metabolic response, 3 progression of disease and 2 stable disease. HTT with SIB was well tolerated in all patients. Grade 3 acute toxicity in the genitourinary tract was observed in two patients. CONCLUSION (11)C-Choline PET/CT is a valuable tool for planning and monitoring HTT in LN relapse after primary treatment. High-dose hypofractionated (11)C-choline PET/CT-guided HTT with SIB is well tolerated and is associated with a high early biochemical response rate.
