Abstract
9085 Background: Existing disparities in quality of care for women with breast cancer suggest the need to explore the adequacy of information and care support provided to patients. This study investigated whether racial/ethnic variation existed in receipt and usefulness of cancer-related information and availability of peer support. Methods: 2,030 women diagnosed with non-metastatic breast cancer and reported to the Los Angeles County, Surveillance Epidemiologic and End Results registry between 8/05–5/06, were identified and mailed a survey shortly after initial treatment. Latina and African American (AA) women were oversampled. Outcomes included self-reported receipt and perceived usefulness of treatment-related (recovery from surgery, radiation, chemotherapy) and survivorship-related (sexual functioning, relationships, nutrition, anxiety) information and experiences with other women with breast cancer. We report results on a 50% respondent sample (N=742) that will be updated based on a final sample of 1,400 women (projected response rate, 72%). Results: More women received information and found it useful regarding treatment than survivorship issues. After adjusting for age and education, a higher percentage of Latina women, compared to white and AA women, desired more information on treatment-related issues and survivorship-related issues (p<.01). A higher percentage of Latina women also reported having no contact with other women with breast cancer, either through the health care system or a family/friend (p<.001), and reported a desire for more contact as compared to white or AA women (42%, vs. 15% and 29%, respectively). Overall, women rated the benefit of talking to other women high, particularly in helping with emotional issues and few endorsed potentially negative consequences. Conclusions: Women with breast cancer expressed the need for more useful information and care support, especially about managing survivorship concerns. Particular focus is warranted with Latina women to provide desired information and greater opportunities for peer contact. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

Abstract
Currently, endorectal coil MR imaging has the ability to improve accuracy in staging of localized prostate cancer. The addition of MR spectroscopic imaging has further improved the sensitivity of MR imaging for intraprostatic tumor localization. Additional refinements and techniques are expected to further improve the performance of MR imaging for prostate cancer imaging and to aid in patient management. Further studies are required to identify the ideal role for MR imaging in the diagnosis and management of prostate cancer.

Abstract
There is evidence that extracellular nucleotides, acting through multiple P2 receptors, may play an important role in the regulation of bone metabolism by activating intracellular signaling cascades. We have studied the modulation of mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathways and its relationship to changes in intracellular calcium concentration ([Ca(2+)](i)) induced by ATP in ROS-A 17/2.8 osteoblastic cells. ATP and UTP (10 microM) increased [Ca(2+)](i) by cation release from intracellular stores. We have found that when the cells are subsequently subjected to mechanical stress (medium perturbation), a transient calcium influx occurs. This mechanical stress-activated calcium influx (MSACI) was not observed after ADP stimulation, indicating that P2Y(2) receptor activation is required for MSACI. In addition, ERK 1/2 and p38 MAPK were activated by ATP in a dose- and time-dependent manner. This activation was almost completely blocked using neomycin (2.5mM), an inhibitor of phosphoinositide-phospholipase C (PI-PLC), Ro 318220 (1 microM), a protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitor, and PP1 (50 microM), a potent and selective inhibitor of the Src-family tyrosine kinases. Ca(2+)-free extracellular medium (containing 0.5mM EGTA) and the use of gadolinium (5 microM), which suppressed MSACI, prevented ERK 1/2 and p38 phosphorylation by ATP. Altogether, these results represent the first evidence to date suggesting that P2Y(2) receptor stimulation by ATP in osteoblasts sensitizes mechanical stress activated calcium channels leading to calcium influx and a fast activation of the ERK 1/2 and p38 MAPK pathways. This effect also involves upstream mediators such as PI-PLC, PKC and Src family kinases.

Abstract
AIMS To determine outcomes utilizing thymoglobulin and sirolimus immunosuppression, with early steroid withdrawal in low-immune responder pancreas-kidney (SPK) recipients, and conversion from cyclosporine (CsA) to mycophenolic acid (MPA) in all recipients at 6 months posttransplantation. METHODS SPK recipients received thymoglobulin, sirolimus, and reduced-dose CsA immunosuppression. Low immune responders (non-African-Americans with a pretransplant PRA < 30%) were withdrawn from prednisone on posttransplant day 5 and high immune responders were continued on prednisone. All recipients were converted from CsA to MPA at 6 months posttransplantation. During conversion, recipient immune response was monitored by flow PRA and a T-cell stimulation assay (Cylex). RESULTS With a mean follow-up of 9 +/- 4 months, one pancreas was lost to pancreatitis, with no patient or kidney losses and no acute rejection episodes. All eight low immune responder patients were steroid-free at 9 +/- 5 months posttransplantation. Seven patients (five low and two high immune responders) with at least 6-month follow-up were converted from CsA to MPA. One high immune responder with a pretransplant PRA of 43% remained with a PRA of 53% +/- 2% postconversion. The second high immune responder had a pretransplant PRA of 34% and a postconversion PRA of 0%. The five low immune responders had a mean pretransplant PRA of 16% +/- 15% and a postconversion PRA of 0% (P < .01). The Cylex assay resulted in 67% low responsiveness for both high and low immune responders. CONCLUSION Thymoglobulin induction with sirolimus maintenance therapy permitted immunosuppression minimization in selected pancreas transplant recipients. Posttransplant evaluation revealed a diminished (regulated) immune response in six of seven patients.

Abstract
The research studied 249 people employed in extended employment programs in northern Israel with respect to their intention to apply for an alternative job (an active step) or to accept a new job offer (a passive step). Findings indicated that young, single people who were living with their parents and perceived their level of disability as mild indicated more intention to apply for an alternative job or to accept a new job offer. Furthermore, people with low monthly wages, less satisfaction with their income and with the extended employment program in general, and a lack of participation in non-employment activities expressed a greater inclination to apply for an alternative job or to accept a new job offer. The only difference between people's intentions to apply for an alternative job (an active step) or to accept a job offer (a passive step) was in regard to their perception of their disability. The intention to apply for an alternative job was associated with mild disability, whereas the acceptance of a new job offer was related to mild and moderate disability.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We sought to determine whether pancreas transplantation reduced the incidence of peripheral vascular complications in diabetics with renal insufficiency. METHODS A retrospective single-center review was done of 36 kidney-pancreas (KP) and 88 kidney-alone (KA) recipients with a diagnosis of diabetes and end-stage renal disease (ESRD) transplanted between May 1997 and July 2002. Risk factors studied included type of transplant, age, gender, history of smoking, coronary artery disease, hypertension, and peripheral vascular disease (PVD). The endpoint was first peripheral vascular event occurring after transplantation, defined as either an amputation or revascularization procedure. RESULTS The mean age of the cohort was 51 +/- 9 years, 64% of patients were of male gender, 20% with a history of smoking, 98% with hypertension, 15% with coronary artery disease (CAD), and 12% with a history of PVD. With a median follow-up of 45 months (12 to 79 months), 3/36 (8%) of KP recipients suffered a PVD complication, compared to 10/88 (11%) of KA recipients (P = NS). Similarly, age, gender, a past history of smoking, CAD, and hypertension were not predictive of PVD complications. Five of 15 patients (33%) with a pretransplant history of PVD suffered a postoperative PVD event compared to only 8 of 109 patients (7%) with no prior history of PVD (P =.008). CONCLUSIONS Restoration of normoglycemia by pancreas transplantation did not reduce the risk of PVD complications in diabetics with renal failure. A pretransplant history of PVD was the only risk factor associated with posttransplant PVD events.

Abstract
In chick skeletal muscle and in rat osteoblast-like cells (ROS 17/2.8), 1alpha,25-dihydroxy-Vitamin-D(3) [1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3)] stimulates release of Ca(2+) from inner stores and extracellular cation influx through both voltage-dependent and capacitative Ca(2+) entry (CCE) channels. We investigated the involvement of TRPC proteins in CCE induced by 1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3). Two fragments were amplified by RT-PCR, exhibiting >85% sequence homology with human TRPC3. Northern and Western blots employing TRPC3-probes and anti-TRPC3 antibodies, respectively, confirmed endogenous expression of a TRPC3-like protein. Both cell types transfected with anti-TRPC3 antisense oligodeoxynucleotides showed reduced CCE and Mn(2+) entry induced by either thapsigargin or 1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3). In muscle cells, anti-VDR antisense inhibited steroid-induced Ca(2+) and Mn(2+) influx and co-immunoprecipitation of TRPC3 and VDR was observed, suggesting an association between both proteins and a functional role of the receptor in 1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3) activation of CCE. In osteoblasts, two PCR fragments showing high homology with human INAD-like sequences were obtained. Northern blot and antisense functional assays suggested the involvement of the INAD-like protein in CCE regulation by the hormone. Therefore, we propose that an endogenous TRPC3 protein mediates 1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3) modulation of CCE in muscle and osteoblastic cells, which seems to implicate VDR-TRPC3 association and the participation of a INAD-like scaffold protein.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Non-invasive positive pressure ventilation (NPPV) has a beneficial effect on nocturnal hypoventilation and hospitalisation rates in adults with static or slowly progressive neuromuscular disease and respiratory failure. Its role in children affected with similar disease processes, however, remains unclear. AIMS To investigate the impact of NPPV on hospitalisations and sleep related respiratory parameters in children with neuromuscular disease. METHODS Fifteen children (mean age 11.7, range 3.4-17.8 years) diagnosed with neuromuscular disease who had been started on nocturnal NPPV and had at least one year of follow up since the initiation of such therapy were studied. Patients served as their own controls and comparison was made of the years preceding and following the initiation of NPPV. RESULTS Children spent 85% fewer days in hospital (mean pre-NPPV 48.0 days, mean post-NPPV 7.0 days) and 68% less days in intensive care after initiation of NPPV (mean pre-NPPV 12.0 days, mean post-NPPV 3.9 days). Sleep study parameters including number of desaturations, apnoea-hypopnoea index and transcutaneous pCO2 levels improved after initiation of NPPV. CONCLUSIONS NPPV can decrease hospitalisations for children with neuromuscular disease and improves sleep related respiratory parameters. A prospective study is now needed to further delineate the role of NPPV in this population of children.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Repifermin (keratinocyte growth factor-2) has been shown to reduce inflammation in animal models of colitis. AIM To evaluate repifermin for the treatment of active ulcerative colitis. METHODS Eighty-eight patients with active ulcerative colitis were enrolled in a 6-week, double-blind trial. Patients were randomized to receive treatment for five consecutive days with intravenous repifermin at a dose of 1, 5, 10, 25 or 50 microg/kg, or placebo. The primary objective of the study was to evaluate the safety of repifermin. The primary efficacy outcome was clinical remission at week 4, defined as a score of zero on the endoscopic appearance and stool blood components of the Mayo score and a score of zero or unity on the stool frequency and physician's global assessment components. RESULTS At week 4, the rates of clinical remission in the 1, 5, 10, 25 and 50 microg/kg repifermin groups were 19%, 9%, 0%, 0% and 0%, respectively, and 11% for the placebo group (P = 0.32 for repifermin vs. placebo). The frequencies of commonly occurring adverse events and severe adverse events were similar in both groups. CONCLUSIONS Intravenous repifermin at a dose of 1-50 microg/kg was very well tolerated, but there was no evidence that repifermin was effective for the treatment of active ulcerative colitis at these doses. An additional study to determine the efficacy of repifermin at doses of > 50 microg/kg or for a longer treatment duration may be warranted, as the maximally tolerated dose was not reached in the present study.
