Abstract
Abstract
Background
The aim was to carry out phase 4 international field-testing of the European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) breast reconstruction (BRECON) module. The primary objective was finalization of its scale structure. Secondary objectives were evaluation of its reliability, validity, responsiveness, acceptability and interpretability in patients with breast cancer undergoing mastectomy and reconstruction.
Methods
The EORTC module development guidelines were followed. Patients were recruited from 28 centres in seven countries. A prospective cohort completed the QLQ-BRECON15 before mastectomy and the QLQ-BRECON24 at 4–8 months after reconstruction. The cross-sectional cohort completed the QLQ-BRECON24 at 1–5 years after reconstruction, and repeated this 2–8 weeks later (test–retest reliability). All participants completed debriefing questionnaires.
Results
A total of 438 patients were recruited, 234 in the prospective cohort and 204 in the cross-sectional cohort. A total of 414 reconstructions were immediate, with a comparable number of implants (176) and donor-site flaps (166). Control groups comprised patients who underwent two-stage implant procedures (72, 75 per cent) or delayed reconstruction (24, 25 per cent). Psychometric scale validity was supported by moderate to high item-own scale and item-total correlations (over 0·5). Questionnaire validity was confirmed by good scale-to-sample targeting, and computable scale scores exceeding 50 per cent, except nipple cosmesis (over 40 per cent). In known-group comparisons, QLQ-BRECON24 scales and items differentiated between patient groups defined by clinical criteria, such as type and timing of reconstruction, postmastectomy radiotherapy and surgical complications, with moderate effect sizes. Prospectively, sexuality and surgical side-effects scales showed significant responsiveness over time (P < 0·001). Scale reliability was supported by high Cronbach's α coefficients (over 0·7) and test–retest (intraclass correlation more than 0·8). One item (finding a well fitting bra) was excluded based on high floor/ceiling effects, poor test–retest and weak correlations in factor analysis (below 0·3), thus generating the QLQ-BRECON23 questionnaire.
Conclusion
The QLQ-BRECON23 is an internationally validated tool to be used alongside the EORTC QLQ-C30 (cancer) and QLQ-BR23 (breast cancer) questionnaires for evaluating quality of life and satisfaction after breast reconstruction.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Until recently whole genome sequencing (WGS) for mycobacteria has been restricted mostly to the research setting. However, in 2017 Public Health England has implemented WGS for routine mycobacterial identification and susceptibility testing for Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Our objective was to evaluate the impact of this change on the laboratory turnaround times and availability of results. METHODS Over the years 2016 and 2017, the period 1 January to 30 April was selected to represent before and after implementation of WGS. Prior to 2017, line probe assays were used for mycobacterial species identification. Turnaround times for the different steps of the diagnostic process were evaluated for all positive mycobacterial cultures that were sent from our hospital to the Reference Laboratory during the study period. RESULTS A total of 161 positive mycobacterial cultures were sent to the Reference Laboratory. Half of the isolates (n=81/161, 50%) were M. tuberculosis and 80/161 (50%) were non-tuberculous mycobacteria. The median number of workdays for mycobacterial species identification was 1 day (interquartile range (IQR) 1-3) in 2016 and 6 days (IQR 5-7) in 2017, p <0.001. For M. tuberculosis complex, the median time to drug susceptibility testing results, either molecular or phenotypic, was 12 days (IQR 11-18) in 2016 and 8 days (IQR 7-10) in 2017, p <0.001. CONCLUSIONS Routine WGS performed well in this setting for mycobacterial identification and susceptibility testing for M. tuberculosis and decreased time to drug susceptibility testing results. There was an increase in turnaround times for species identification using WGS, when compared with the previous methods.

Abstract
Polysaccharides derived from plant foods are major components of the human diet, with limited contributions of related components from fungal and algal sources. In particular, starch and other storage carbohydrates are the major sources of energy in all diets, while cell wall polysaccharides are the major components of dietary fiber. We review the role of these components in the human diet, including their structure and distribution, their modification during food processing and effects on functional properties, their behavior in the gastrointestinal tract, and their contribution to healthy diets.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Health-related quality of life (HRQL) is often diminished in patients with ulcerative colitis. AIM To evaluate the effects of vedolizumab on HRQL in patients with ulcerative colitis. METHODS Using maintenance phase data from the GEMINI 1 study, an analysis of covariance model was used to calculate mean differences between the vedolizumab and placebo groups in changes from baseline to week 52 for 3 HRQL instruments: The Inflammatory Bowel Disease Questionnaire (IBDQ), 36-Item Short Form Health Survey (SF-36), and EQ-5D. Proportions of patients meeting minimal clinically important difference (MCID) thresholds for changes on these instruments were compared between treatment groups for the overall population and for clinically important subgroups. Concordance between clinical remission and remission defined using IBDQ scores was examined. RESULTS Compared with placebo-treated patients, vedolizumab-treated patients had greater improvements (152-201%) in IBDQ, EQ-5D visual analogue scale (VAS), and EQ-5D utility scores. Greater proportions (6.9-19.9%) of vedolizumab-treated patients than placebo-treated patients met MCID thresholds for all the instruments. Vedolizumab-treated patients with lower baseline disease activity and those without prior tumour necrosis factor (TNF) antagonist failure had greater HRQL improvements. Among 127 patients with clinical remission based on complete Mayo Clinic scores, >80% also had IBDQ remission; >70% of the 150 patients with IBDQ remission demonstrated clinical remission. CONCLUSIONS Vedolizumab therapy was associated with significant improvements in HRQL measures compared with placebo. Benefits were greater in patients with lower disease activity and no prior TNF antagonist failure.

Abstract
AIM To re-assess the content and quality of skeletal surveys performed in the investigation of non-accidental injury following the publication of nationally agreed guidelines produced jointly by the Royal College of Radiologists and the Royal College of Paediatrics and Child Health in 2008. MATERIALS AND METHODS One hundred consecutive skeletal surveys performed in England, which were sent to a tertiary paediatric hospital for a second opinion, were reviewed for their content and quality. The number and type of view was assessed with reference to the 21 recommended views as set out in the College guidance. The quality of each view was assessed and given a score up to a maximum of 10. RESULTS A total of 2,294 radiographic views were acquired, with an average of 22.9 per survey (range 12-21). Fifty-one of the surveys contained all 21 recommended views (previously 15%). The average quality score per view was 9.7/10 (97%), previously 9.7/11 (88%). The commonest cause of reduced quality was the presence of an artefact on the image. CONCLUSION There has been an improvement in the content of skeletal surveys performed in England, which in part may be due to the publication of the national joint Royal College guidance; however, there remain areas for continued development in order to improve practice further.
