Abstract
Purpose The PELICAN trial evaluates for the first time efficacy and safety of pegylated liposomal doxorubicin (PLD) versus capecitabine as first-line treatment of metastatic breast cancer (MBC). Methods This randomized, phase III, open-label, multicenter trial enrolled first-line MBC patients who were ineligible for endocrine or trastuzumab therapy. Cumulative adjuvant anthracyclines of 360 mg/m2 doxorubicin or equivalent were allowed. Left ventricular ejection fraction of >50 % was required. Patients received PLD 50 mg/m2 every 28 days or capecitabine 1250 mg/m2 twice daily for 14 days every 21 days. The primary endpoint was time-to-disease progression (TTP). Results 210 patients were randomized (n = 105, PLD and n = 105, capecitabine). Adjuvant anthracyclines were given to 37 % (PLD) and 36 % (capecitabine) of patients. No significant difference was observed in TTP [HR = 1.21 (95 % confidence interval, 0.838–1.750)]. Median TTP was 6.0 months for both PLD and capecitabine. Comparing patients with or without prior anthracyclines, no significant difference in TTP was observed in the PLD arm (log-rank P = 0.64). For PLD versus capecitabine, respectively, overall survival (median, 23.3 months vs. 26.8 months) and time-to-treatment failure (median, 4.6 months vs. 3.7 months) were not statistically significantly different. Compared to PLD, patients on capecitabine experienced more serious adverse events (P = 0.015) and more cardiac events among patients who had prior anthracycline exposure (18 vs. 8 %; P = 0.31). Conclusion Both PLD and capecitabine are effective first-line agents for MBC.

Abstract
Cadmium-enrichment of farmland soil greatly threatens the sustainable use of soil resources and the safe cultivation of grain. This review paper briefly introduces the status of farmland soil as well as grain, which are both often polluted by cadmium (Cd) in China, and illustrates the major sources of Cd contaminants in farmland soil. In order to meet soil environmental quality standards and farmland environmental quality evaluation standards for edible agricultural products, Cd-enriched farmland soil is frequently remediated with the following prevailing techniques: dig and fill, electro-kinetic remediation, chemical elution, stabilisation and solidification, phytoremediation, field management and combined remediation. Most remediation techniques are still at the stage of small-scale trial experiments in China and few techniques are assessed in field trials. After comparing the technical and economical applicability among different Cd-enriched farmland soil remediation techniques, a novel ecological and hydraulic remediation technique has been proposed, which integrated the advantages of chemical elution, solidification and stabilisation, phytoremediation and field management. The ecological and hydraulic remediation concept is based on existing irrigation and drainage facilities, ecological ditches (ponds) and agronomic measures, which mainly detoxify the Cd-enriched soil during the interim period of crop cultivation, and guarantee the grain safety during its growth period. This technique may shift the challenge from soil to water treatment, and thus greatly enhances the remediation efficiency and shortens the remediation duration. Moreover, the proposed ecological and hydraulic remediation method matches well with the practical choice of cultivation while remediation for Cd-enriched soil in China, which has negligible impacts on the normal crop cultivation process, and thus shows great potential for large area applications.

Abstract
We utilized femtosecond time-resolved resonant inelastic X-ray scattering and ab initio theory to study the transient electronic structure and the photoinduced molecular dynamics of a model metal carbonyl photocatalyst Fe(CO)5 in ethanol solution. We propose mechanistic explanation for the parallel ultrafast intra-molecular spin crossover and ligation of the Fe(CO)4 which are observed following a charge transfer photoexcitation of Fe(CO)5 as reported in our previous study [Wernet et al., Nature 520, 78 (2015)]. We find that branching of the reaction pathway likely happens in the (1)A1 state of Fe(CO)4. A sub-picosecond time constant of the spin crossover from (1)B2 to (3)B2 is rationalized by the proposed (1)B2 → (1)A1 → (3)B2 mechanism. Ultrafast ligation of the (1)B2 Fe(CO)4 state is significantly faster than the spin-forbidden and diffusion limited ligation process occurring from the (3)B2 Fe(CO)4 ground state that has been observed in the previous studies. We propose that the ultrafast ligation occurs via (1)B2 → (1)A1 → (1)A' Fe(CO)4EtOH pathway and the time scale of the (1)A1 Fe(CO)4 state ligation is governed by the solute-solvent collision frequency. Our study emphasizes the importance of understanding the interaction of molecular excited states with the surrounding environment to explain the relaxation pathways of photoexcited metal carbonyls in solution.

Abstract
Recently, we showed that the arterial in-line application of the leukocyte inhibition module (LIM) within the heart-lung machine limits overshooting leukocyte activity and cardiac tissue damage. Moreover, significantly better cardiac function was found in an experimental animal model when LIM was used. In the meantime, the first promising clinical data exist. LIM has to be regarded as an essential tool in extracorporeal circulation, in the future, to improve postoperative clinical outcome and to reduce costs. This review summarizes the biological background of LIM and the current experience obtained in experimental models and clinical studies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To examine the relation of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) response with tumor response and survival in patients with (K)RAS wild-type metastatic colorectal cancer receiving first-line chemotherapy in the FIRE-3 trial comparing FOLFIRI plus cetuximab versus FOLFIRI plus bevacizumab. PATIENTS AND METHODS CEA response assessed as the percentage of CEA decrease from baseline to nadir was evaluated for its association with tumor response and survival. Receiver operating characteristic analysis revealed an optimal cut-off value of 75% using the maximum of sensitivity and specificity for CEA response to discriminate CEA responders from non-responders. In addition, the time to CEA nadir was calculated. RESULTS Of 592 patients in the intent-to-treat population, 472 were eligible for analysis of CEA (cetuximab arm: 230 and bevacizumab arm: 242). Maximal relative CEA decrease (%) significantly (P = 0.003) differed between the cetuximab arm (median 83.0%; IQR 40.9%-94.7%) and the bevacizumab arm (median 72.3%; IQR 26.3%-91.0%). In a longitudinal analysis, the CEA decrease occurred faster in the cetuximab arm and was greater than in the bevacizumab arm at all evaluated time points until 56 weeks after treatment start. CEA nadir occurred after 3.3 months (cetuximab arm) and 3.5 months (bevacizumab arm), (P = 0.49). In the cetuximab arm, CEA responders showed a significantly longer progression-free survival [11.8 versus 7.4 months; hazard ratio (HR) 1.53; 95% Cl, 1.15-2.04; P = 0.004] and longer overall survival (36.6 versus 21.3 months; HR 1.73; 95% Cl, 1.24-2.43; P = 0.001) than CEA non-responders. Analysis of extended RAS wild-type patients revealed similar results. CONCLUSION In the FIRE-3 trial, CEA decrease was significantly faster and greater in the cetuximab arm than in the bevacizumab arm and correlated with the prolonged survival observed in patients receiving FOLFIRI plus cetuximab.

Abstract
PURPOSE This work proposes a theoretical framework that enables comparative risk predictions for second cancer incidence after particle beam therapy for different ion species for individual patients, accounting for differences in relative biological effectiveness (RBE) for the competing processes of tumor initiation and cell inactivation. Our working hypothesis was that use of carbon-ion therapy instead of proton therapy would show a difference in the predicted risk of second cancer incidence in the breast for a sample of Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) patients. METHODS AND MATERIALS We generated biologic treatment plans and calculated relative predicted risks of second cancer in the breast by using two proposed methods: a full model derived from the linear quadratic model and a simpler linear-no-threshold model. RESULTS For our reference calculation, we found the predicted risk of breast cancer incidence for carbon-ion plans-to-proton plan ratio, <Rc/Rp>, to be 0.75 ± 0.07 but not significantly smaller than 1 (P=.180). CONCLUSIONS Our findings suggest that second cancer risks are, on average, comparable between proton therapy and carbon-ion therapy.

Abstract
Radiotherapy of solid tumors with charged particles holds several advantages in comparison to photon therapy; among them conformal dose distribution in the tumor, improved sparing of tumor-surrounding healthy tissue, and an increased relative biological effectiveness (RBE) in the tumor target volume in the case of ions heavier than protons. A crucial factor of the biological effects is DNA damage, of which DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) are the most deleterious. The reparability of these lesions determines the cell survival after irradiation and thus the RBE. Interestingly, using phosphorylated H2AX as a DSB marker, our data in human fibroblasts revealed that after therapy-relevant spread-out Bragg peak irradiation with carbon ions DSBs are very efficiently rejoined, despite an increased RBE for cell survival. This suggests that misrepair plays an important role in the increased RBE of heavy-ion radiation. Possible sources of erroneous repair will be discussed.

Abstract
AIMS To assess the long-term outcome of mid-urethral slings regarding urinary incontinence (UI) and lower urinary tract symptoms and to identify risk factors for an unsatisfactory outcome. METHODS Analysis of a prospective institutional database. For the current analysis only women who reached the 10 years follow-up were eligible. Outcome was assessed using a detailed, non-validated questionnaire on continence status and on several aspects of lower urinary tract function. RESULTS A total of 256 women were operated during 1999-2004, in 139 (54.3%), a 10 years follow-up was available and these patients were included. Mean age at surgery was 63 years. At the 2, 5, and 10 years follow-up, the percentages of women reporting 0-1 pads/day were 96.4%, 97.1% and 88.5%, respectively. More than 95% of the patients reported no stress UI at the 2, 5, and 10 years follow-up. At baseline, urgency was reported by 61.2%, this figure dropped to 17.3% at 2 years and increased thereafter to 32.4% (5 years) and 41.7% (10 years). De novo urgency was present in 3.6% after 2 years, in 10.8% after 5 years, and 14.4% after 10 years. The percentage of patients with a high degree of treatment satisfaction declined from 79.1% at 2 years to 70.5% at 5 years, and 62.6% at 10 years. Risk factors for an unsatisfactory long-term outcome were advanced age, the presence of urgency, nocturia, and decreased bladder capacity at baseline. CONCLUSIONS This study confirms the excellent long-term efficacy of mid-urethral slings regarding the management of stress UI. A substantial number of women develop OAB-symptoms after the procedure that largely contribute to outcome dissatisfaction. Neurourol. Urodynam. 36:614-619, 2017. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although a relationship between elevated triglycerides (TG) and cardiovascular diseases is generally accepted, its extent is still discussed. This retrospective study analyzed the incidence of cardiovascular events (CVE) and pancreatitis as well as the therapeutic regimen in patients being treated for hypertriglyceridemia (HTG) at an outpatient department. METHODS The cohort included 183 patients with mild and 49 patients with severe HTG; subgroups were formed and compared according to gender, presence of metabolic vascular syndrome (MVS) and lipid values. RESULTS Patients in this study seem to have had CVE at younger age than reported event rates in the general population. TG levels, rates of CVE and pancreatitis were reduced in all groups during therapy, which could be linked to use of omega-3 fatty acids and fibrates. Patients with persisting severe HTG as a result of incompliance showed massive risk for pancreatitis. CONCLUSION Although no significant association between TG levels and CVE could be established, the combination of HTG and other cardiovascular risk factors such as MVS seems to be especially dangerous. The lipid-lowering drug therapy appeared to be effective with respect to CVE and pancreatitis incidence.

Abstract
There is no general consensus about indications for surgical treatment of degenerative spondylolisthesis. This is--in part--due to a paucity of knowledge of its natural history and outcomes of conservative treatment, as well as a relatively small number of sufficiently powered outcome studies for surgical treatment. We aim to provide an overview of current surgical techniques and deduce indications based on two simple principles: presence of neurological deficits and instability. Today, decompression and instrumented fusion is the standard of care. However, the complete armamentarium of possible treatment options should be carefully considered, and the adequate procedures and instruments used should be chosen individually, when a decision to operate is made.

Abstract
We report here on a qualitative and quantitative comparison of four kinetic photon cell survival models. The commonly used linear-quadratic model extended by a dose protraction factor, the lethal potentially lethal model, the repair misrepair model and the recently reported Giant LOop Binary LEsion (GLOBLE) model are discussed with respect to the proposed underlying biological mechanisms explaining the cellular response to radiation. Furthermore, with the use of eight benchmarks, the accuracy, reliability, resolution power and robustness of the models are assessed and compared. This work demonstrates that the linear-quadratic, lethal potentially lethal and GLOBLE models often perform equivalently and that the repair misrepair model appears to have some drawbacks regarding the end points under investigation.
