Comparison between thrombotic risk scores in essential thrombocythemia and survival implications. Hematol Oncol 2019; 37:434-437. [PMID: 31465530 DOI: 10.1002/hon.2670] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/31/2019] [Revised: 06/05/2019] [Accepted: 08/24/2019] [Indexed: 11/07/2022]
Abstract
The conventional thrombotic risk stratification in essential thrombocythemia (ET) distinguishes patients in two risk groups based on previous thrombosis and age (< or >60). The IPSET-thrombosis takes into account four risk factors: age greater than 60 years and the presence of CV risk factors, thrombosis history and JAK2 V617F presence. The revised IPSET-thrombosis uses three adverse variables to delineate four risk categories: age greater than 60, thrombosis history, and JAK2 V617F presence. We compared different risk models in the estimation of thrombotic risk in 191 patients with ET and the role of specific driver mutations affecting overall survival, according to thrombotic risk. We also evaluated the mutational status of patients showing history of thrombosis or cardiovascular events versus patients who did not. Finally, we verified whether the thrombotic risk had a significant impact on survival in our ET patients. The data analysis has been performed through the conventional statistics and overall survival estimated by using the Kaplan-Meyer method. Interestingly, either using the traditional system for thrombotic risk or the IPSET-t prognostic score or the current stratification for the thrombotic risk, high-risk patients are always highly represented. This evidence is of note, being the high-risk category indicated for cytoreduction, affecting quality of life, despite the good overall prognosis of patients with ET diagnosis in general. The analysis of overall survival in our patients, according to different models for thrombotic risk, highlighted the poor prognosis of high-risk patients compared with those with a lower thrombotic risk, in particular when using traditional stratification and current stratification. In conclusion, the occurrence of thrombotic or cardiovascular events represents one of the most severe complications at diagnosis or during follow-up of ET despite current recommendations, having a significant impact on morbidity and survival.

Abstract
The consolidation of the dairy industry, with increase in sizes, density and productivity of the herds, was associated to unprecedented bovine tuberculosis (bTB) prevalence levels in dairy herds in Uruguay, where Johne's disease (JD), another mycobacterial disease, is also prevalent. Here, we aimed to characterize the association between bTB- and JD-diagnostic results in two heavily bTB- and JD-coinfected dairy herds. Results from bTB-intradermal tests and JD-ELISA in 686 cows indicated a significantly (P < 0.001) higher frequency of bTB-positive animals in the JD-positive population, in which a significantly lower agreement between the caudal and cervical comparative intradermal tests was observed, compared to the JD-negative population. These findings suggest a significant association between the detection of these mycobacterial diseases, that may affect the performance of the routine bTB diagnostic tests performed in dairy herds in Uruguay.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: Precision medicine is revolutionizing breast cancer (BC) care. Comprehensive liquid biopsies are a tool for personalized care in patients with locally advanced breast cancer (LABC). Identifying robust biomarkers as part of a comprehensive liquid biopsy to predict response to treatment is of immense clinical interest.
Methods: After obtaining IRB approval, serial blood samples were collected from patients with LABC undergoing neoadjuvant therapy. Paired biopsies were collected prior to treatment and were sent to Foundation Medicine for next-generation sequencing (NGS). We used a sized-base microfilter technology to capture circulating tumor cells (CTCs) and circulating cancer associated fibroblasts (cCAFs). Patients with one or more CTCs or cCAFs were deemed positive for these tests. Additionally, in collaboration with Foundation Medicine, we extracted circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) and we analyzed it using the FoundationACT platform. Patients with a detectable genomic alteration in their plasma were considered as having a positive ctDNA test. Our primary objective is to determine if a comprehensive liquid biopsy can serve as a prognostic marker of pathologic complete response (pCR).
Results: For this analysis we describe our findings in the initial blood draw of the first 18 patients enrolled. The mean age is 54 years (38-70). All patients who had their tumors sequenced had a detectable mutation. Consistent with the findings of others, we found TP53 mutations to be the most prevalent at 83.3%. We found that 44% of patients had ctDNA, 68.4% had cCAFs and 78.9% had CTCs. Many patients also had clusters of cells, consisting of one cell type, or co-clusters, consisting of both. 38.9% had CTC clusters, 16.7% had cCAF clusters and 16.7% had co-clusters (CTCs and cCAFs together). Some patients with CTCs did not have cCAFs and vice versa. The number of CTCs and cCAFS did not correlate with stage of disease or receptor status.
Conclusions: We describe a comprehensive liquid biopsy combining a sized-based microfilter technology for CTC and cCAFs identification and the FoundationACT platform for ctDNA analysis is feasible and these biomarkers can be detected in patients with LABC prior to the initiation of neoadjuvant therapy. Our study is accruing rapidly, and we will update our results with the longitudinal collection and the prognostic value of a comprehensive liquid biopsy at the time of the meeting.

Abstract
Childhood obesity increases the risk for poor health during childhood, as well as for adult obesity and its associated comorbidities. Children from racial/ethnic minority groups or who live in poverty experience elevated rates of obesity. One potential method for reducing childhood obesity disparities is to involve community health workers (frontline public health workers who are trusted members of and/or have an unusually close understanding of the community served). The purpose of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to explore the role and effectiveness of community health workers in childhood obesity interventions. Eleven studies met inclusion criteria, of which nine were eligible for inclusion in the meta-analysis. Results demonstrated that community health workers played various roles in childhood obesity interventions in the home, clinic, school, and community setting. Interventions focused primarily on children from underserved populations. Meta-analytic findings demonstrated a small but significant impact on BMIz and BMI percentile (BMIz [7 studies]: -0.08, 95% CI: -0.15, -0.01, p = 0.03, I2 = 39.4%; BMI percentile [2 studies]: -0.25, 95% CI: -0.38, -0.11, p < 0.01, I2 = 0%). Findings from this review demonstrate that partnering with community health workers may be an important strategy for reducing childhood obesity disparities and advancing health equity.

Abstract
Aims Pancopride (PNC) is a new 5HT3 receptor antagonist which has demonstrated complete protection from nausea and vomiting in 25-73% of patients treated with highly emetogenic chemotherapy. A double-blind, randomized crossover study was carried out to assess whether the addition of dexamethasone (DXM) to PNC increases the antiemetic efficacy. Methods PNC (0.2 mg/kg. i.v. 30 min before chemotherapy) plus placebo (PLC) was compared with PNC (same dose and schedule) plus DXM (20 mg. i.v. immediately before PNC). In the second cycle, patients received the alternative antiemetic treatment. Eighty patients were included in the study (PNC+DXM=39, PNC+PLC=41), 29 of whom were women and 51 men. Fifty-four percent of the patients in the PNC+DXM group and 59% of those in the PNC+PLC group received chemotherapy containing cisplatin. Seventy-seven patients completed the first cycle and 70 the second. Results Complete protection was obtained in 19/16 patients (50/46%) with PNC+PLC and in 32/22 (82/63%) with PNC+DXM (P<0.001). Latency was significantly longer in the PNC+DXM group. The efficacy of both treatments was unaffected by the order of administration. Side effects were mild in both groups. Conclusions The combination of PNC+DXM is more efficacious than PNC+PLC in protection against highly emetogenic chemotherapy-induced vomiting.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Spinal angiolipomas are rare epidural tumours that are usually revealed by chronic symptoms of medullar irritation. We report a case of acute paraplegia caused by spontaneous bleeding revealing a thoracic angiolipoma. CASE DESCRIPTION A 17-year-old male patient with no previous medical history was admitted for acute onset of paraplegia with bladder retention and loss of sensation in the lower limbs, preceded by dorsal pain during the three previous days. MRI showed an enhanced T1-weighted image of a T7-T12 epidural lesion. The T1-weighted isosignal and the T2-weighted hyposignal suggested haemorrhagic complications. Due to a mass effect on the spinal cord, an emergency laminectomy was performed. Histopathological examination of the lesion revealed an angiolipoma with spontaneous bleeding. Clinical outcome was favourable after two months. CONCLUSION This case is one of the first to be reported, although the clinical presentation is similar to that of other rare reported cases of paraplegia due to spinal compression by tumoural bleeding.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: Mastectomy is associated with acute and chronic postoperative pain. This study investigated the efficacy of thoracic paravertebral block (TPB) compared to local anesthetic of surgical wound (LASW) in breast cancer patients undergoing mastectomy.
Methods: This phase 3, randomized controlled, single blind, parallel arms and superiority clinical trial aimed to evaluate the efficacy of TPB compared to LASW on acute pain at rest and motion at 24 hours post-mastectomy, measured by a visual analog scale (VAS). The study size of 60 patients is determined to have 90% power to detect a difference of 20% in acute pain in favor of TPB. In TPB group use of ultrasound was mandatory to guide puncture of intervertebral space T3 for infiltrating 0.5% bupivacaine at dose of 1.5 mg/kg. In LASW group was used bupivacaine 0.5% at dose of 1.5mg/kg on subcutaneous tissue of surgical area. VAS was used to measure surgical pain at rest and motion in 2,4,6,12 and 24 hours post-operatives for both groups. Trial Registry: ClinicalTrials.gov; Identifier:NCT02609321.
Findings: From 08-2015 to 09-2016, 60 breast cancer patients were enrolled; 3 dropped off consent. Mean age was 51 year; 78% had stage II and III; and 65% receive neoadjuvant chemotherapy.There were no significant differences in the VAS pain measurement for the groups of BWT compared to LASW in the 24 hour measurement, neither at rest (P=0.6525) nor in movement (P=0.7929). There were no significant differences in both groups for repeated pain measurements (5 measures mean), total dose of opioid administration, time to first dose of opioids or adverse events.
Conclusions: There were not statistical differences for post-mastectomy acute pain in first 24 hours between TPB and LASW patients. According our findings the use of TPB should not routinely recommended for breast cancer patients undergoing mastectomy.

Abstract
Foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) is an important transboundary disease with substantial economic impacts. Although between-herd transmission of the disease has been well studied, studies focusing on within-herd transmission using farm-level outbreak data are rare. The aim of this study was to estimate parameters associated with within-herd transmission, host physiological factors and FMD virus (FMDV) persistence using data collected from an outbreak that occurred at a large, organized dairy farm in India. Of 1,836 regularly vaccinated, adult dairy cattle, 222 had clinical signs of FMD over a 39-day period. Assuming homogenous mixing, a frequency-dependent compartmental model of disease transmission was built. The transmission coefficient and basic reproductive number were estimated to be between 16.2-18.4 and 67-88, respectively. Non-pregnant animals were more likely to manifest clinical signs of FMD as compared to pregnant cattle. Based on oropharyngeal fluid (probang) sampling and FMDV-specific RT-PCR, four of 36 longitudinally sampled animals (14%) were persistently infected carriers 10.5 months post-outbreak. There was no statistical difference between subclinical and clinically infected animals in the duration of the carrier state. However, prevalence of NSP-ELISA antibodies differed significantly between subclinical and clinically infected animals 12 months after the outbreak with 83% seroprevalence amongst clinically infected cattle compared to 69% of subclinical animals. This study further elucidates within-herd FMD transmission dynamics during the acute-phase and characterizes duration of FMDV persistence and seroprevalence of FMD under natural conditions in an endemic setting.

Abstract
Cervical pedicular agenesis, an unusual disorder, is a rare clinical and radiological finding, which can lead to misdiagnosis, moreover in a traumatic situation. The authors report the case of a young woman with a C3 right congenital absence of the cervical pedicle. A systematic review of literature found more than 70 reported cases. In patients with congenital agenesis of the cervical pedicle, the two most common levels of this congenital absence are C6 and C5. The three radiological findings were: the false appearance of an enlarged ipsilateral neural foramen due to the absent pedicle; a dysplastic, dorsally displaced ipsilateral articular pillar and lamina; and a dysplastic ipsilateral transverse process. These pedicle ageneses are a stable congenital anomaly.
