Abstract
PURPOSE The aim of this study was to examine current practice patterns in pediatric total body irradiation (TBI) techniques among xxx member institutions. METHODS AND MATERIALS Between Nov 2019 and Feb 2020 a questionnaire, containing 52 questions related to the technical aspects of TBI was sent to medical physicists at 152 xxx institutions. The questions were designed to obtain technical information on commonly used TBI treatment techniques. Another set of 9 questions related to the clinical management of patients undergoing TBI was sent to 152 xxx member radiation oncologists at the same institutions. RESULTS Twelve institutions were excluded because TBI was not performed in their institutions. A total of 88 physicists from 88 institutions (63% response rate) and 96 radiation oncologists from 96 institutions responded (69% response rate). The AP/PA technique was the most common (49 institutions - 56%); 44 institutions (50%) used the lateral technique and 14 institutions (16%) used volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT)/Tomotherapy. Mid-plane dose rates of 6-15 cGy/min were most commonly used. The most common specification for lung dose was the mid lung dose for both AP/PA (71%) and lateral (63%) techniques. All physician responders agreed with the need to refine current TBI techniques and 79% supported the investigation of new TBI techniques to further lower the lung dose. CONCLUSION There is no consistency in the practice patterns, methods for dose measurement and reporting of TBI doses among xxx institutions. The lack of a standardization precludes meaningful correlation between TBI doses and clinical outcomes including disease control and normal tissue toxicity. The xxx radiation oncology discipline is currently undertaking several steps to standardize the practice and dose reporting of pediatric TBI using detailed questionnaires and phantom-based credentialing for all xxx centers.

Soft-Dielectron Excess in Proton-Proton Collisions at sqrt[s]=13 TeV. PHYSICAL REVIEW LETTERS 2021; 127:042302.

Abstract
A measurement of dielectron production in proton-proton (pp) collisions at sqrt[s]=13 TeV, recorded with the ALICE detector at the CERN LHC, is presented in this Letter. The data set was recorded with a reduced magnetic solenoid field. This enables the investigation of a kinematic domain at low dielectron (ee) invariant mass m_{ee} and pair transverse momentum p_{T,ee} that was previously inaccessible at the LHC. The cross section for dielectron production is studied as a function of m_{ee}, p_{T,ee}, and event multiplicity dN_{ch}/dη. The expected dielectron rate from hadron decays, called hadronic cocktail, utilizes a parametrization of the measured η/π^{0} ratio in pp and proton-nucleus collisions, assuming that this ratio shows no strong dependence on collision energy at low transverse momentum. Comparison of the measured dielectron yield to the hadronic cocktail at 0.15<m_{ee}<0.6 GeV/c^{2} and for p_{T,ee}<0.4 GeV/c indicates an enhancement of soft dielectrons, reminiscent of the "anomalous" soft-photon and soft-dilepton excess in hadron-hadron collisions reported by several experiments under different experimental conditions. The enhancement factor over the hadronic cocktail amounts to 1.61±0.13(stat)±0.17(syst,data)±0.34(syst,cocktail) in the ALICE acceptance. Acceptance-corrected excess spectra in m_{ee} and p_{T,ee} are extracted and compared with calculations of dielectron production from hadronic bremsstrahlung and thermal radiation within a hadronic many-body approach.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most prevalent age-related disorder due to cartilage degradation. Previous studies have identified aberrant chondrocyte homeostasis under extracellular stress as a key pathological mechanism behind cartilage degradation in OA. TDP-43, a DNA/RNA-binding protein has been demonstrated to participate in processing many extracellular stress responses; however, understanding of the role of TDP-43 in OA is limited. This study aims to investigate the role of TDP-43 in chondrocyte homeostasis and cartilage degradation in OA. METHODS The role of TDP-43 during degradation of cartilage is examined by experimental posttraumatic OA animal models and human cartilage specimens. Cartilage degradation is assessed by histological analysis, qPCR, and Western blot. The molecular mechanisms are investigated in vitro using human primary chondrocytes. RESULTS TDP-43 decreases significantly in degenerated cartilage. TDP-43 concentration is positively correlated with IL-1β concentration in synovial fluid derived from OA patients (Pearson r = 0.95, CI (95%) [0.80, 0.99], P < 0.0001). Intra-articular injection of recombinant TDP-43 significantly alleviates cartilage degradation and subchondral bone remodeling in vivo. In vitro mechanistic analyses show that TDP-43 maintains chondrocyte homeostasis under oxidative stress through regulating stress granule dynamics via G3BP1. CONCLUSION The present study indicates that TDP-43 maintains chondrocyte homeostasis under oxidative stress and alleviates cartilage degeneration in osteoarthritis, identifying TDP-43 as a potential target for the diagnosis and treatment of knee OA.

Abstract
Background:Belimumab (BEL), a recombinant human monoclonal antibody that inhibits B-lymphocyte stimulator (BLyS), is approved for the treatment of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Clinical studies have yielded varying incidence rates of mortality and adverse events of special interest, such as malignancies, thereby necessitating large-scale, long-term assessment following BEL exposure.Objectives:To assess all-cause mortality and new primary malignancies during post-treatment Year 2 follow-up in adult patients with active, autoantibody-positive SLE who received intravenous (IV) BEL or placebo (PBO), plus standard therapy in the 52-week double-blind treatment period of the ongoing BASE trial.1Methods:This was a post-treatment follow-up of the Phase 4, double-blind study (BASE1; GSK Study BEL115467; NCT01705977), which randomised 4019 adults with active SLE and receiving standard therapy to BEL (10 mg/kg IV) or PBO on Days 0, 14, 28, and monthly thereafter until Week 48. All patients (including those who discontinued BEL before the end-of-treatment phase) were contacted by phone annually (+/-30-day time window). Rates of mortality and new primary malignancy are summarised for Year 2 follow-up, presented by the treatment received during the 52-week double-blind treatment period (Year 1).Results:Baseline patient characteristics and disease activity collected at the start of the study, evaluated in patients with Year 2 follow-up were similar to the overall Year 1 study population. Cumulatively by Year 2 follow-up, 10.7% and 9.5% of patients had been exposed to commercial BEL in the BEL and PBO groups, respectively.

Abstract
AIM To investigate the value of contrast-enhanced dual-energy spectral computed tomography (CT) in differentiating borderline epithelial ovarian tumours (BEOTs) from malignant epithelial ovarian tumours (MEOTs). MATERIALS AND METHODS Sixty patients who underwent pelvic contrast-enhanced spectral CT were divided into two groups for analysis based on the tumour types confirmed at histopathological examination (26 BEOTs and 34 MEOTs). The regions of interest (ROIs) were selected on solid tumour components to measure attenuation values on monochromatic image sets (40-140 keV) in all imaging phases and tumour iodine concentrations (IC) on material decomposition images. Differences in the attenuation value between the unenhanced and contrast-enhanced phases (enhancement degree) and between energy strengths (slope k, k = [attenuation at 40 keV- attenuation at 140 keV]/100) were calculated. All measurements between the two groups were compared with independent t-test. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were generated to calculate the sensitivity, specificity and area under the ROC curve (AUC). Logistic regression analysis was used to evaluate the diagnostic efficacy of using combined parameters in two-phase contrast-enhanced images. RESULTS In the arterial phase (AP) and venous phase (VP), the BEOTs had significantly lower enhancement than MEOTs from 40 to 100 keV (p<0.05). The k values and IC values both showed significant differences in the AP and VP (p<0.05). Combining parameters in two contrast-enhanced phases provided 80.8% sensitivity and 82.4% specificity in differentiating MEOTs from BEOTs with an AUC of 0.844. CONCLUSION Dual-energy spectral CT provides a multiparametric approach in differentiating BEOTs from MEOTs with the best diagnostic efficacy using combined parameters in the AP and VP images.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To examine the nature of differences in the relationship between frontal plane rearfoot kinematics and knee adduction moment (KAM) magnitudes. DESIGN Cross-sectional study resulting from a combination of overground walking biomechanics data obtained from participants with medial tibiofemoral osteoarthritis at two separate sites. Statistical models were created to examine the relationship between minimum frontal plane rearfoot angle (negative values = eversion) and different measures of the KAM, including examination of confounding, mediation, and effect modification from knee pain, radiographic disease severity, static rearfoot alignment, and frontal plane knee angle. RESULTS Bivariable relationships between minimum frontal plane rearfoot angle and the KAM showed consistent negative correlations (r = -0.411 to -0.447), indicating higher KAM magnitudes associated with the rearfoot in a more everted position during stance. However, the nature of this relationship appears to be mainly influenced by frontal plane knee kinematics. Specifically, frontal plane knee angle during gait was found to completely mediate the relationship between minimum frontal plane rearfoot angle and the KAM, and was also an effect modifier in this relationship. No other variable significantly altered the relationship. CONCLUSIONS While there does appear to be a moderate relationship between frontal plane rearfoot angle and the KAM, any differences in the magnitude of this relationship can likely be explained through an examination of frontal plane knee angle during walking. This finding suggests that interventions derived distal to the knee should account for the effect of frontal plane knee angle to have the desired effect on the KAM.

Abstract
The elliptic flow of electrons from beauty hadron decays at midrapidity (|y|<0.8) is measured in Pb-Pb collisions at sqrt[s_{NN}]=5.02 TeV with the ALICE detector at the LHC. The azimuthal distribution of the particles produced in the collisions can be parametrized with a Fourier expansion, in which the second harmonic coefficient represents the elliptic flow, v_{2}. The v_{2} coefficient of electrons from beauty hadron decays is measured for the first time in the transverse momentum (p_{T}) range 1.3-6 GeV/c in the centrality class 30%-50%. The measurement of electrons from beauty-hadron decays exploits their larger mean proper decay length cτ≈500 μm compared to that of charm hadrons and most of the other background sources. The v_{2} of electrons from beauty hadron decays at midrapidity is found to be positive with a significance of 3.75 σ. The results provide insights into the degree of thermalization of beauty quarks in the medium. A model assuming full thermalization of beauty quarks is strongly disfavored by the measurement at high p_{T}, but is in agreement with the results at low p_{T}. Transport models including substantial interactions of beauty quarks with an expanding strongly interacting medium describe the measurement within uncertainties.

Abstract
Identification of humic-like substances (HULIS) structures and components is still a major challenge owing to their chemical complexity. This study first employed a complementary method with the combination of two-dimensional gas chromatography-time-of-flight mass spectrometry and liquid chromatography-quadrupole-time-of-flight mass spectrometry to address low-polarity and polar components of HULIS in PM2.5 (particulate matter with an aerodynamic diameter less than 2.5 μm), respectively. The combination method showed a significant correlation in identifying overlapping species and performed well in uncovering the chemical complexity of HULIS. A total of 1246 compound species in HULIS (65.6-81.0% for each sample), approximately 1 order of magnitude more compounds than that reported in previous studies, were addressed in PM2.5 collected in real-world household biomass and coal combustion. Aromatics were the most abundant compounds (37.4-64.1% in biomass and 34.5-70.0% in coal samples) of the total mass in all HULIS samples according to carbon skeleton determination, while the major components included phenols (2.6-21.1%), ketones (6.0-17.1%), aldehydes (1.1-6.8%), esters (2.9-20.0%), amines/amides (3.2-8.5%), alcohols (3.8-17.0%), and acids (4.7-15.1%). Among the identified HULIS species, 11-36% mass in biomass and 11-41% in coal were chromophores, while another 22-35 and 23-29% mass were chromophore precursors, respectively. The combination method shows promise for uncovering HULIS fingerprinting.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The protocol for optimal antiplatelet therapy to prevent thromboembolic and hemorrhagic complications in patients with cerebral aneurysms using an endovascular approach is not clear. PURPOSE Our study analyzed the safety and efficacy of prophylactic tirofiban administration compared with oral antiplatelet drug therapy. DATA SOURCES We used the PubMed, EMBASE, MEDLINE, and Cochrane library data bases. STUDY SELECTION Our study consisted of all case series with >5 patients that reported treatment-related outcomes of patients undergoing endovascular procedures pretreated with tirofiban or oral antiplatelet drug therapy. DATA ANALYSIS Random effects or fixed effects meta-analysis was used to pool the cumulative rate of complications, perioperative mortality, and good clinical outcomes. DATA SYNTHESIS Fifteen studies with 1981 patients were registered. Thromboembolic complications were significantly lower in the tirofiban group (3.6%; 95% CI, 1.9%-5.8%) compared with the dual-antiplatelet therapy group (8.5%, 95% CI, 4.5%-13%; P = .04). Pretreatment with tirofiban did not remarkably increase the rate of hemorrhagic complications (3.5%; 95% CI, 1.8%-5.6%) compared with dual-antiplatelet therapy (5.1%; 95% CI, 2.6%-8.5%; P = .371). There was a trend toward lower perioperative mortality with tirofiban (0.8%; 95% CI, 0.2%-1.6%) compared with dual-antiplatelet therapy (1.2%; 95% CI, 0.7%-2.0%; P = .412). There was no significant difference in the safety and efficacy between the tirofiban bolus plus drip and drip alone. LIMITATIONS The limitations are selection and publication biases. CONCLUSIONS Prophylactic therapy with tirofiban resulted in significantly lower rates of thromboembolic complications with no increase in hemorrhagic events or mortality than the prophylactic use of dual-antiplatelet therapy.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To investigate the seroreversion time in HIV-1-exposed but uninfected infants from two tertiary hospitals in China. METHODS This study retrospectively investigated the data of perinatal, HIV-1-exposed infants from hospitals in Beijing and Shenzhen. Maternal and infant medical records from both hospitals from January 2009 to December 2019 were reviewed, and the HIV antibody seroreversion times of infants were determined. From 2009 to 2019, a total of 485 HIV-1-exposed but uninfected infants were enrolled. The majority of infants were born at term with normal birth weight. RESULTS The seroreversion rates were 89.3%, 94.2% and 100% at 12, 18 and 24 months of age, respectively. There were no significant associations between seroreversion and several risk factors, such as gender, birth weight, gestational age, mode of delivery, postpartum prophylaxis and antiretroviral treatment duration. The mean value of HIV-specific immunoglobulin G concentration decreased from 15.4 at day 42 to 0.03 after 24 months in HIV-exposed, uninfected infants. CONCLUSIONS Clearance of HIV antibodies could take more than 18 months in a small number of perinatally exposed infants. Caution should be used in excluding or diagnosing perinatal HIV infection in children with long persistence of HIV antibodies.

Abstract
AIM To explore the applicability of diffusion-tensor imaging (DTI) sequence quantitative parameters in differentiating uterine sarcoma (USr) from degenerative uterine fibroids (DUF). MATERIALS AND METHODS Fourteen cases of USr and 30 cases of DUF were analysed retrospectively. The diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) and DTI images were analysed by two observers using Functool software on a ADW4.6 workstation. The images were post-processed to generate an apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) map of DWI, ADC map of DTI (ADCT map), and fractional anisotropy (FA) map. Three regions of interest (ROI) were selected from the ADC, ADCT, and FA maps to obtain the ADC, ADCT, and FA values. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves of all parameters were used to analyse and compare the diagnostic value of USr and DUF. RESULTS The ADC value, ADCT value, and FA value of USr (1.190 ± 0.262 × 10-3mm2/s, 1.165 ± 0.270 × 10-9mm2/s, 0.168 ± 0.063) were significantly lower compared to the values for DUF (1.525 ± 0.314 × 10-3mm2/s, 1.650 ± 0.332 × 10-9mm2/s, 0.254 ± 0.111; all p<0.001). The diagnostic threshold values for USr were: ADC ≤1.290 × 10-3mm2/s, ADCT ≤1.322 × 10-9mm2/s and FA ≤0.192. The corresponding sensitivities and specificities were 78.6%/90%, 96.7%/92.9%, and 86.7%/85.7%, respectively. The areas under the curve (AUC) were 0.875, 0.974, and 0.831, respectively. CONCLUSIONS DTI quantitative parameters can be used to differentiate USr from DUF. The ADCT value had the highest diagnostic efficacy.
