Abstract
Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) is a complication of
unresolved organised pulmonary emboli/thrombi obstructing the major pulmonary
arteries. The aim of this study was to estimate the incidence and risk factors
of CTEPH in a cohort with first venous thromboembolism (VTE). This was a
population-based cohort study of patients with first VTE and no active cancer in
England between 2001 and 2012. CTEPH was assessed using a rigorous
case-ascertainment algorithm. Risk factors for CTEPH were studied using a nested
case-control approach by matching CTEPH cases to VTE patients without CTEPH.
Adjusted odds ratios (OR) of comorbidities were estimated from conditional
logistic regression. During 81,413 person-years of follow-up among 23,329
patients with first VTE (mean follow-up 3.5 years; maximum 11.0 years) 283
patients were diagnosed with CTEPH (incidence rate 3.5 per 1000 person-years);
cumulative incidence was 1.3% and 3.3% at 2 and 10 years after pulmonary
embolism, and 0.3% and 1.3% following deep vein thrombosis (DVT), respectively.
Risk factors for CTEPH included age over 70, OR 2.04 (95% CI 1.23 to 3.38),
female gender, 1.44 (1.06 to 1.94), pulmonary embolism at first VTE, 3.11 (2.23
to 4.35), subsequent pulmonary embolism and DVT, 3.17 (2.02 to 4.96) and 2.46
(1.34 to 4.51) respectively, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease 3.17 (2.13 to
4.73), heart failure 2.52 (1.76 to 3.63) and atrial fibrillation, 2.42 (1.71 to
3.42). CTEPH develops most commonly after pulmonary embolism and less frequently
after DVT. Awareness of risk factors may increase referrals to specialised
centres for confirmation of CTEPH and initiation of specific treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Alterations of site-specific gene expression profiles in disease-relevant networks within the different layers of the intestinal wall may contribute to the onset and clinical course of gastrointestinal disorders. To date, no systematic analysis has assessed and compared sub-regional gene expression patterns in all distinct layers of the gut using fresh frozen human samples. Our aim was to establish an optimized protocol for site-specific RNA isolation in order to achieve maximum RNA quality and amount for subsequent gene expression analysis combining laser-capture microdissection (LCM) with a probe-based technology, the NanoString nCounter Analysis system. METHODS Four full-thickness colon samples from patients who underwent surgery due to pathological conditions were processed and separated into epithelium, lamina propria, myenteric plexus, submucosa, and tunica muscularis by LCM. Site-specific marker expression by nCounter technology was performed on total RNA from each sub-region, respectively. KEY RESULTS Collecting ~10 mm² (~100 000-250 000 cells) of tissue from the epithelial layer, lamina propria, and myenteric plexus provided sufficient amounts of RNA of appropriate quality for subsequent analyses. In contrast, ~40 mm² (~250 000-650 000 cells) of tissue were dissected from the less cell-rich submucosal and tunica muscularis layer. nCounter analysis revealed a site-specific expression pattern of marker genes in the different layers of the colonic wall which were highly correlating (r > .9). CONCLUSIONS AND INFERENCES LCM in combination with nCounter expression analysis enables site-specific, sensitive, reliable detection, and quantification of mRNA from histologically heterogeneous tissues.

Abstract
Purpose To compare the safety and efficacy of a new enhanced viscosity ophthalmic formulation of tobramycin, given twice daily (BID), with the existing four times daily (QID) treatment regimen in patients with acute bacterial conjunctivitis. Methods This was a 12-day, multicenter, observer-masked, randomized, parallel group study. Patients received one drop of tobramycin 0.3% (3 mg/mL) enhanced viscosity ophthalmic solution BID or tobramycin 0.3% (3 mg/mL) ophthalmic solution QID in the affected eyes for 7 days. The primary efficacy variable was the percentage of patients with sustained cure/presumed bacterial eradication based on clinical judgment at the test-of-cure visit (Day 12). Pretherapy bacterial isolates were obtained and tested for susceptibility to tobramycin by determination of minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC). Results A total of 276 patients were enrolled in the study and 203 of these were culture positive and attended all follow-up examinations. In this group, 98% of those treated with tobramycin enhanced viscosity ophthalmic solution and 99% of those treated with tobramycin 0.3% ophthalmic solution were categorized as having sustained cure/presumed eradication at the test-of-cure visit (p=0.6037). Reported adverse events were not serious, mild to moderate in severity, and generally did not prevent continuation in the study. Several pretreatment pathogens demonstrated tobramycin resistance (MIC > 4 mg/mL). However, therapy with both treatments was effective in the majority of the cases. Conclusions Tobramycin enhanced viscosity ophthalmic solution is well tolerated and has equivalent efficacy to the established treatment regimen with a simplified posology. The formulation provides an alternative therapy for acute bacterial conjunctivitis that should improve patient compliance and satisfaction.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The incidence of perineal hernia after abdominoperineal excision and extralevator abdominoperineal excision ranges from 1 to 26%. In this systematic review, we compared surgical options and postoperative outcomes of perineal hernia repair in this setting from 2012 to 2016 with findings in a review of publications 1944-2011. METHODS We searched the PubMed database using the keywords "hernia" AND "perineum" identified 392 papers published from 1946 to 2016. Two hundred and ninety-six papers published before 2012 were excluded and 96 were found to be potentially relevant. RESULTS Twenty-one studies with a total of 108 patients were included in the final analysis. Perineal hernia repair was performed using the perineal approach in 75 patients (69.44%), the laparoscopic approach in 25 patients (23.14%), the open abdominal approach in three patients (2.77%) and the laparoscopic perineal approach in three patients (2.77%) and the open abdominoperineal approach in two patients (1.8%). Non-absorbable mesh was used in 41 (37.96%) of cases, composite mesh in 20 (18.51%) and biological mesh in 19 (17.59%). Flap reconstruction was used in 25 patients (23.14%). First and second recurrences were observed in 26 (24.07%) and 7 (26.92%) cases, respectively. CONCLUSIONS Comparison of perineal hernia repair from 1944 to 2011 and from 2012 to 2016 showed that perineal and laparoscopic approaches are currently the most commonly used techniques. Primary defect closure was abandoned in favor of synthetic or composite mesh placement. Use of flap reconstruction spread rapidly and the recurrence rate was low. Randomized control trials and a larger sample size are needed to confirm these data and to develop a gold standard treatment for secondary hernia repair after abdominoperineal excision or extralevator abdominoperineal excision.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES 1) To assess the association of NETosis and NETosis-derived products with the activity of the disease and the development of cardiovascular disease in RA; 2) To evaluate the involvement of NETosis on the effects of biologic therapies such as anti-TNF alpha (Infliximab) and anti-IL6R drugs (Tocilizumab). METHODS One hundred and six RA patients and 40 healthy donors were evaluated for the occurrence of NETosis. Carotid-intimae media thickness was analyzed as early atherosclerosis marker. Inflammatory and oxidative stress mediators were quantified in plasma and neutrophils. Two additional cohorts of 75 RA patients, treated either with Infliximab (n = 55) or Tocilizumab (n = 20) for six months, were evaluated. RESULTS NETosis was found increased in RA patients, beside myeloperoxidase and neutrophil elastase protein levels. Cell-free nucleosomes plasma levels were elevated, and strongly correlated with the activity of the disease and the positivity for autoantibodies, alongside inflammatory and oxidative profiles in plasma and neutrophils. Moreover, ROC analyses showed that cell-free nucleosomes levels could identify RA patients showing early atherosclerosis with high specificity. RA patients treated either with IFX or TCZ for six months exhibited decreased generation of NETs. Concomitantly, clinical parameters and serum markers of inflammation were found reduced. Mechanistic in vitro analyses showed that inhibition of NETs extrusion by either DNase, IFX or TCZ, further abridged the endothelial dysfunction and the activation of immune cells, thus influencing the global activity of the vascular system. CONCLUSIONS NETosis-derived products may have diagnostic potential for disease activity and atherosclerosis, as well as for the assessment of therapeutic effectiveness in RA.

Abstract
Several studies in multiple sclerosis (MS) suggest a trend of increasing disease frequency in women during the last decades. A direct comparison of gender ratio trends among MS populations from Argentina remains to be carried out. The objective of the study was to compare gender ratio trends, over a 50-year span in MS populations from Argentina. METHODS multicenter study that included patients from 14 MS Centers of Argentina. Patients with definite MS with birth years ranging from 1940 to 1989 were included. Gender ratios were calculated by five decades based on year of birth and were adjusted for the F/M born-alive ratio derived from the Argentinean national registry of births. The F/M ratios were calculated using a multivariate logistic regression per five decades by the year of birth approach. Analyses were performed using Stata 10.1. RESULTS 1069 patients were included. Gender ratios showed a significant increase from the first to the last decade in the whole MS sample (from 1.8 to 2.7; p value for trend=0.023). The Gender ratio did not show differences considering MS subtype. CONCLUSION our study showed a modest increase of the F/M ratio (from 1.8 to 2.7) over time among patients affected by MS in Argentina.

Fludarabine with pharmacokinetically guided IV busulfan is superior to fixed-dose delivery in pretransplant conditioning of AML/MDS patients. Bone Marrow Transplant 2016; 52:580-587. [PMID: 27991894 PMCID: PMC5382042 DOI: 10.1038/bmt.2016.322] [Citation(s) in RCA: 40] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/30/2016] [Revised: 09/28/2016] [Accepted: 09/30/2016] [Indexed: 11/25/2022]
Abstract
We hypothesized that IV Busulfan (Bu) dosing could be safely intensified through pharmacokinetic (PK-) dose guidance to minimize the inter-patient variability in systemic exposure (SE) associated with body-sized dosing, and this should improve outcome of AML/MDS patients undergoing allogeneic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). To test this hypothesis, we treated 218 patients (median age 50.7 years, male/female 50/50%) with fludarabine (Flu) 40 mg/m2 once daily ×4, each dose followed by IV Bu, randomized to 130 mg/m2 (N=107) or PK-guided to average daily SE, AUC of 6,000 µM-min (N=111), stratified for remission-status, and allo-grafting from HLA-matched donors. Toxicity and graft vs. host disease (GvHD) rates in the groups were similar; the risk of relapse or treatment-related mortality remained higher in the fixed-dose group throughout the 80-month observation period. Further, PK-guidance yielded safer disease-control, leading to improved overall and progression-free survival, most prominently in MDS-patients and in AML-patients not in remission at allo-HSCT. We conclude that AML/MDS patients receiving pretransplant conditioning treatment with our 4-day regimen may benefit significantly from PK-guided Bu-dosing. This could be considered an alternative to fixed dose delivery since it provides the benefit of precise dose delivery to a predetermined SE without increasing risk(s) of serious toxicity and/or GvHD.

Abstract
The role that changes in DNA methylation and histone modifications have in human malignancies is poorly understood. p300 and CREB-binding protein (CBP), two distinct but highly homologous lysine acetyltransferases, are mutated in several cancers, suggesting their role as tumor suppressors. In the current study, we found that deletion of p300, but not CBP, markedly accelerated the leukemogenesis ofNup98-HoxD13 (NHD13) transgenic mice, an animal model that phenotypically copies human myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). p300 deletion restored the ability of NHD13 expressing hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) to self-renew in vitro, and to expand in vivo, with an increase in stem cell symmetric self-renewal divisions and a decrease in apoptosis. Furthermore, loss of p300, but not CBP, promoted cytokine signaling, including enhanced activation of the MAPK and JAK/STAT pathways in the HSPC compartment. Altogether, our data indicate that p300 has a pivotal role in blocking the transformation of MDS to acute myeloid leukemia, a role distinct from that of CBP.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Essentials Vitamin K antagonists (VKA) in venous thromboembolism (VTE) lower the risk of recurrences. 41 841 VKA-treated VTE patients had 1242 recurrent VTEs on therapy or early after cessation. An increased risk of recurrence was found in the first 120 days after VKA cessation. Patient education for the early detection of recurrent VTE after VKA cessation is recommended. SUMMARY Background The standard treatment for venous thromboembolism (VTE) and the prevention of recurrent VTE (rVTE) consists of anticoagulant therapy. The optimal duration of anticoagulation depends on the presence of risk factors for rVTE. Objectives To estimate the risk of rVTE in association with time since discontinuation of vitamin K antagonist (VKA) treatment. Methods From the UK Clinical Practice Research Datalink with linked information on hospitalization and cause of death, a cohort of patients with a first VTE receiving initial VKA treatment between 2001 and 2013 was formed. With a nested case-control approach, patients with incident rVTE (cases) were matched to patients with VTE but without rVTE (controls). Adjusted rate ratios (RRs) of rVTE associated with time since VKA discontinuation relative to current VKA use were estimated from conditional logistic regression. Results The VTE cohort comprised 41 841 patients with 1242 rVTEs and 6205 matched controls. The RR of rVTE was increased within 60 days following VKA discontinuation (RR 2.23, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.71-2.91) and within 61-120 days following VKA discontinuation (RR 1.49, 95% CI 1.08-2.05) relative to current VKA use. The increased RR corresponded to excess incidence rates of 6.72 (95% CI 3.90-10.06) rVTE cases per 100 person-years within 60 days, and of 2.68 (95% CI 0.42-5.58) rVTE cases per 100 person-years within 61-120 days after VKA discontinuation. Conclusions VKA discontinuation results in a transient increased risk of rVTE, which peaks within 60 days and lasts for up to 120 days after VKA discontinuation. Specific patient education for increased vigilance for signs and symptoms of recurrences is recommended in this period.
