Rose MA, Anderson J, Green SL, Yun J, Fernando SL. Morphine and pholcodine-specific IgE have limited utility in the diagnosis of anaphylaxis to benzylisoquinolines. Acta Anaesthesiol Scand 2018; 62:628-634. [PMID: 29368335 DOI: 10.1111/aas.13077] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/16/2017] [Revised: 12/06/2017] [Accepted: 01/02/2018] [Indexed: 12/19/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Investigation of immediate hypersensitivity reactions in the perioperative setting involves skin testing and measurement of specific IgE (sIgE) as standard practice. In the case of the neuromuscular blocking agents (NMBAs), the main allergenic epitopes have been shown to be substituted ammonium groups. Commercial assays are available for detection of sIgE to these epitopes using morphine and pholcodine substrates but questions have been raised about the effectiveness of these assays in the diagnosis of benzylisoquinoline anaphylaxis. This study was therefore undertaken to assess the effectiveness of these assays in the diagnosis of hypersensitivity reactions to this group of NMBAs. METHODS Analysis was carried out on all available results for patients assessed at the Royal North Shore Hospital Anaesthetic Allergy Clinic during the period June 2009 to June 2016. Standardised intradermal skin tests were performed with a panel of NMBAs. Measurement of sIgE to morphine and pholcodine was performed via the Phadia ImmunoCAP® system. RESULTS For all patients with positive skin test results to NMBAs which included a benzylisoquinoline NMBA (n = 24), 75% exhibited negative sIgE to both morphine and pholcodine. Where patients were reactive to benzylisoquinoline NMBAs alone (n = 12), 100% exhibited negative sIgE results, indicating 0% sensitivity of the assays relative to skin testing, in this subgroup. CONCLUSION Use of sIgE testing to morphine and pholcodine in the assessment of NMBA immediate hypersensitivity is a valuable tool particularly in the case of reactions to the aminosteroid NMBAs. However, these assays are unreliable in detecting sensitisation to benzylisoquinoline NMBAs.

Abstract
A very small centrifugal pump, fully supported by magnetic bearings, is being developed for use as a ventricular assist device to be implanted in humans. In this paper, we apply computational fluid dynamics to model the blood flow to aid in the design of the ventricular assist device. The flow of blood through the pump has been modeled using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software that is commercially available from AEA Technology, UK. The flow regions modeled in version 3 of the Continuous Flow Ventricular Assist Device (CF3) are the fully shrouded four bladed impeller and the two clearance regions around the impeller that are bounded by the pump hub and shroud. This paper describes the geometry and computational grids developed for the flow regions, and the equations of motion for the blood flow are developed. The overall numerically-evaluated flow rates and head rise have similar trends to the flow parameters experimentally measured, indicating that future pump designs can be effectively modeled numerically before being constructed and tested. Numerical solutions are presented and compared with experimentally-obtained overall pump performance results. These solutions are used to predict shear stress levels to be experienced by the blood flowing through the pump, and it is predicted that hemolysis will be insignificant. The solutions also indicate no regions of flow stagnation that can be a source of thrombosis in pumps. The calculations provide a viable design method to achieve improved efficiency in future versions of this pump.

Abstract
AIM This paper will review progress towards the identified targets within the Australian government policy document commonly known as 'Closing the Gap' and examine the role of nurses in supporting its implementation. BACKGROUND Australia is not alone in seeking to address the health inequity between Indigenous and non-Indigenous people. Globally such health inequities are similar and require interventions supported by governments in conjunction with health and education systems to affect desired change. For this reason, it is timely to undertake a review of progress on the impact of the Closing the Gap initiative. SOURCES OF EVIDENCE The Australian national partnership agreement and subsequent annual performance reports issued between 2010 and 2017. DISCUSSION Targets set within the Australian government national partnership agreement have had a range of success. Those targets not on track require significant long-term investment to ensure their success. Nurses as a large professional group are powerful advocates to speak up and support policy change that affects disempowered social groups. CONCLUSION Long-term social change takes time, yet without the commitment of Australian Governments through effective policy and economic support, the inequity in the health of Indigenous people will continue both now and in the future. IMPLICATIONS FOR HEALTH AND SOCIAL POLICY Nurses, as the largest health professional group, are uniquely placed to support and implement social change at all levels of health care (primary, secondary and tertiary) and to lobby government to amend policy alongside those who are disempowered. IMPLICATIONS FOR NURSING PRACTICE Health promotion and education programmes that are led by nurses can make an impact to health disparities within groups who are most at risk.

Abstract
On 27 August 2016, the Juno spacecraft acquired science observations of Jupiter, passing less than 5000 kilometers above the equatorial cloud tops. Images of Jupiter's poles show a chaotic scene, unlike Saturn's poles. Microwave sounding reveals weather features at pressures deeper than 100 bars, dominated by an ammonia-rich, narrow low-latitude plume resembling a deeper, wider version of Earth's Hadley cell. Near-infrared mapping reveals the relative humidity within prominent downwelling regions. Juno's measured gravity field differs substantially from the last available estimate and is one order of magnitude more precise. This has implications for the distribution of heavy elements in the interior, including the existence and mass of Jupiter's core. The observed magnetic field exhibits smaller spatial variations than expected, indicative of a rich harmonic content.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES We sought to compare all-cause mortality of people living with HIV and accessing care in Canada and the UK. METHODS Individuals from the Canadian Observational Cohort (CANOC) collaboration and UK Collaborative HIV Cohort (UK CHIC) study who were aged ≥ 18 years, had initiated antiretroviral therapy (ART) for the first time between 2000 and 2012 and who had acquired HIV through sexual transmission were included in the analysis. Cox regression was used to investigate the difference in mortality risk between the two cohort collaborations, accounting for loss to follow-up as a competing risk. RESULTS A total of 19 960 participants were included in the analysis (CANOC, 4137; UK CHIC, 15 823). CANOC participants were more likely to be older [median age 39 years (interquartile range (IQR): 33, 46 years) vs. 36 years (IQR: 31, 43 years) for UK CHIC participants], to be male (86 vs. 73%, respectively), and to report men who have sex with men (MSM) sexual transmission risk (72 vs. 56%, respectively) (all P < 0.001). Overall, 762 deaths occurred during 98 798 person-years (PY) of follow-up, giving a crude mortality rate of 7.7 per 1000 PY [95% confidence interval (CI): 7.1, 8.3 per 1000 PY]. The crude mortality rates were 8.6 (95% CI: 7.4, 10.0) and 7.5 (95% CI: 6.9, 8.1) per 1000 PY among CANOC and UK CHIC study participants, respectively. No statistically significant difference in mortality risk was observed between the cohort collaborations in Cox regression accounting for loss to follow-up as a competing risk (adjusted hazard ratio 0.86; 95% CI: 0.72-1.03). CONCLUSIONS Despite differences in national HIV care provision and treatment guidelines, mortality risk did not differ between CANOC and UK CHIC study participants who acquired HIV through sexual transmission.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Obesity is a multifactorial condition influenced by both genetics and lifestyle. The aim of this study was to investigate whether the association between a validated genetic profile risk score for obesity (GPRS-obesity) and body mass index (BMI) or waist circumference (WC) was modified by macronutrient intake in a large general population study. METHODS This study included cross-sectional data from 48 170 white European adults, aged 37-73 years, participating in the UK Biobank. Interactions between GPRS-obesity and macronutrient intake (including total energy, protein, fat, carbohydrate and dietary fibre intake) and its effects on BMI and WC were investigated. RESULTS The 93-single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) GPRS was associated with a higher BMI (β: 0.57 kg m-2 per s.d. increase in GPRS (95% confidence interval: 0.53-0.60); P=1.9 × 10-183) independent of major confounding factors. There was a significant interaction between GPRS and total fat intake (P(interaction)=0.007). Among high-fat-intake individuals, BMI was higher by 0.60 (0.52, 0.67) kg m-2 per s.d. increase in GPRS-obesity; the change in BMI with GPRS was lower among low-fat-intake individuals (β: 0.50 (0.44, 0.57) kg m-2). Significant interactions with similar patterns were observed for saturated fat intake (high β: 0.66 (0.59, 0.73) versus low β: 0.49 (0.42, 0.55) kg m-2, P(interaction)=2 × 10-4) and for total energy intake (high β: 0.58 (0.51, 0.64) versus low β: 0.49 (0.42, 0.56) kg m-2, P(interaction)=0.019), but not for protein intake, carbohydrate intake and fibre intake (P(interaction) >0.05). The findings were broadly similar using WC as the outcome. CONCLUSIONS These data suggest that the benefits of reducing the intake of fats and total energy intake may be more important in individuals with high genetic risk for obesity.

Abstract
Multiple myeloma (MM) causes lytic bone lesions due to increased bone
resorption and concomitant marked suppression of bone formation. Sclerostin
(Scl) levels, an osteocyte-derived inhibitor of Wnt/β-catenin signaling,
are elevated in MM patient sera and are increased in osteocytes in MM-bearing
mice. We show here that genetic deletion of Sost, the gene encoding Scl,
prevented MM-induced bone disease in an immune-deficient mouse model of early
MM, and that administration of anti-Scl antibody (Scl-Ab) increased bone mass
and decreases osteolysis in immune-competent mice with established MM. Sost/Scl
inhibition increased osteoblast numbers, stimulated new bone formation and
decreased osteoclast number in MM-colonized bone. Further, Sost/Scl inhibition
did not affect tumor growth in vivo or anti-myeloma drug
efficacy in vitro. These results identify the osteocyte as a
major contributor to the deleterious effects of MM in bone and osteocyte-derived
Scl as a promising target for the treatment of established MM-induced bone
disease. Further, Scl did not interfere with efficacy of chemotherapy for MM
suggesting that combined treatment with anti-myeloma drugs and Scl-Ab should
effectively control MM growth and bone disease, providing new avenues to
effectively control MM and bone disease in patients with active MM.
