Abstract
BACKGROUND: Care of patients with paediatric TB is delivered in a variety of settings by different clinicians in the United Kingdom. Paediatric practices vary in size. Guidelines on managing children with TB differ in recommendations. These factors contribute to variations in practice.OBJECTIVE: To describe practice among UK professionals caring for children exposed to or infected with TB, and their investigation and treatment.METHODS: From 81 NHS (National Health Service) clinical services, 114 individuals responded to a web-based questionnaire.RESULTS: We describe variation in several areas of practice, with important differences between smaller and larger centres. Most respondents go beyond National Institute for Health & Care Excellence guidance and screen child contacts of extrapulmonary TB. Most respondents would presume pulmonary TB exposed children aged under 2 years to be infected. They would not rely on immunological investigations to rule out infection. There was wide variety in approaches to microbiological diagnosis, and in the use of laboratory investigations to monitor treatment. Many respondents felt unclear on how to manage newborns exposed to TB, or children exposed to multidrug-resistant TB.CONCLUSION: These findings support the case for further developing regional networks providing evidence and consensus-based care for children with TB.

Abstract
Background North West London has one of the highest tuberculosis (TB) rates in the UK, at 24.8 per 10,000. The UK prevalence of hepatitis B virus (HBV) is 0.1-0.5% and for hepatitis C virus (HCV) is 0.5-1%. Chronic infection with HBV or HCV can lead to an increased risk of adverse treatment outcomes, such as drug-induced liver injury (DILI) in patients with active or latent TB. National guidelines recommend routinely screening for HBV/HCV prior to initiating TB treatment. Our objectives were to 1) evaluate the HBV/HCV screening practice in local TB clinics, 2) establish the prevalence of HBV/HCV in patients receiving TB treatment. Methods Retrospective analysis of laboratory and medical records of patients treated for active or latent TB identified from the London TB register and clinic records from 01/01/2018 to 31/12/2020 from London North West NHS Trust. Results 1409 patients received treatment for TB during the time period of interest; 574 (40.7%) had active disease and 835 (59.3%) had latent infection. 966/1409 patients (68.56%) were screened for HBV and HCV. 55.9% of the active TB group and 77.2% of the latent infection group were tested. 66 (6.8%) patients had isolated anti-HBc positivity, 22 (2.3%) were HBV surface antigen positive and 8 (0.8%) were HCV-antibody positive. HBV surface antigens were more prevalent in active TB patients: 9/321 (2.80%) with active TB versus 13/645 (2.02%) with latent TB. 36/321 (11.21%) active TB patients had HBV core antibodies compared to 30/645 (4.65%) latent TB patients (p < 0.001). Three patients started antiviral treatment following their viral hepatitis diagnosis (one with HBV, two with HCV). Conclusion The prevalence of chronic HBV in the study population was higher than the estimated UK prevalence. Fifteen diagnoses of hepatitis were new, allowing specialist referral for monitoring of fibrosis and development of hepatocellular carcinoma. Three patients required hepatitis treatment. 6.8% of patients were positive for anti-HBc and therefore identified as being at future risk of HBV reactivation if requiring immunosuppressive therapies.TB disproportionately affects marginalised communities; screening for viral hepatitis in TB clinic represents an opportunity to target these hard-to-reach groups to maximise the impact of public health interventions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Animal models of human disease are a key component of translational hepatology research, yet there is no consensus on which model is optimal for NAFLD. APPROACH AND RESULTS We generated a database of 3,920 rodent models of NAFLD. Study designs were highly heterogeneous, and therefore, few models had been cited more than once. Analysis of genetic models supported the current evidence for the role of adipose dysfunction and suggested a role for innate immunity in the progression of NAFLD. We identified that high-fat, high-fructose diets most closely recapitulate the human phenotype of NAFLD. There was substantial variability in the nomenclature of animal models: a consensus on terminology of specialist diets is needed. More broadly, this analysis demonstrates the variability in preclinical study design, which has wider implications for the reproducibility of in vivo experiments both in the field of hepatology and beyond. CONCLUSIONS This systematic analysis provides a framework for phenotypic assessment of NAFLD models and highlights the need for increased standardization and replication.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS A common genetic variant near MBOAT7 (rs641738C>T) has been previously associated with hepatic fat and advanced histology in NAFLD; however, these findings have not been consistently replicated in the literature. We aimed to establish whether rs641738C>T is a risk factor across the spectrum of NAFLD and to characterise its role in the regulation of related metabolic phenotypes through a meta-analysis. METHODS We performed a meta-analysis of studies with data on the association between rs641738C>T genotype and liver fat, NAFLD histology, and serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT), lipids or insulin. These included directly genotyped studies and population-level data from genome-wide association studies (GWAS). We performed a random effects meta-analysis using recessive, additive and dominant genetic models. RESULTS Data from 1,066,175 participants (9,688 with liver biopsies) across 42 studies were included in the meta-analysis. rs641738C>T was associated with higher liver fat on CT/MRI (+0.03 standard deviations [95% CI 0.02-0.05], pz = 4.8×10-5) and diagnosis of NAFLD (odds ratio [OR] 1.17 [95% CI 1.05-1.3], pz = 0.003) in Caucasian adults. The variant was also positively associated with presence of advanced fibrosis (OR 1.22 [95% CI 1.03-1.45], pz = 0.021) in Caucasian adults using a recessive model of inheritance (CC + CT vs. TT). Meta-analysis of data from previous GWAS found the variant to be associated with higher ALT (pz = 0.002) and lower serum triglycerides (pz = 1.5×10-4). rs641738C>T was not associated with fasting insulin and no effect was observed in children with NAFLD. CONCLUSIONS Our study validates rs641738C>T near MBOAT7 as a risk factor for the presence and severity of NAFLD in individuals of European descent. LAY SUMMARY Fatty liver disease is a common condition where fat builds up in the liver, which can cause liver inflammation and scarring (including 'cirrhosis'). It is closely linked to obesity and diabetes, but some genes are also thought to be important. We did this study to see whether one specific change ('variant') in one gene ('MBOAT7') was linked to fatty liver disease. We took data from over 40 published studies and found that this variant near MBOAT7 is linked to more severe fatty liver disease. This means that drugs designed to work on MBOAT7 could be useful for treating fatty liver disease.

Abstract
The classical drug development pipeline necessitates studies using animal models of human disease to gauge future efficacy in humans, however there is a low conversion rate from success in animals to humans. Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a complex chronic disease without any established therapies and a major field of animal research. We performed a meta-analysis with meta-regression of 603 interventional rodent studies (10,364 animals) in NAFLD to assess which variables influenced treatment response. Weight loss and alleviation of insulin resistance were consistently associated with improvement in NAFLD. Multiple drug classes that do not affect weight in humans caused weight loss in animals. Other study design variables, such as age of animals and dietary composition, influenced the magnitude of treatment effect. Publication bias may have increased effect estimates by 37-79%. These findings help to explain the challenge of reproducibility and translation within the field of metabolism.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare the accuracy of infrared (IR)-reflex assessment using a prototype imaging device to standard non-mydriatic red-reflex screening with direct ophthalmoscope (DO) in the diagnosis of neonatal and childhood cataract. METHODS The comparison of the techniques was made in two distinct cohorts: in the first, newborns underwent IR and red-reflex testing by a medical student, with results compared to a reference red-reflex examination by an experienced midwife. In the second, an enriched cohort of children attending a specialist paediatric ophthalmology clinic had IR and red-reflex testing by a medical student to reference examination by a paediatric ophthalmologist. The medical students were considered inexperienced screeners due to their limited exposure to ophthalmology. The sensitivity and specificity of the IR and red-reflex assessments in respect to reference examination were calculated. Diagnostic accuracy was compared in Caucasian and non-Caucasian eyes. RESULTS IR and red-reflex imaging were possible in all 180 neonatal eyes examined. A total of 5% of newborn eyes were found to have embryological remnants in the anterior segment of the eye with IR-reflex imaging which were not detected on reference red-reflex examination. IR-reflex assessment had significantly better sensitivity (100 vs 71%, p < 0.05) and specificity (100 vs 63%, p < 0.01) than red-reflex assessment in the diagnosis of childhood cataract. Red-reflex specificity was particularly poor in non-Caucasian eyes compared to Caucasian eyes (32 vs 72%, p < 0.05). CONCLUSION This pilot study indicates that IR-reflex imaging has the potential to improve the diagnostic accuracy of eye screening for cataract by inexperienced healthcare staff, particularly in non-Caucasian children.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The role of adjuvant radiotherapy (RT) in the management of atypical lipomatous tumor/well-differentiated liposarcoma (ALT/WD-LPS) remains controversial. METHODS Two hundred eighty-three patients with operable ALT/WD-LPS, no history of previous cancer, chemotherapy (CT) or RT, treated between 1984 and 2011 registered in the Conticabase database were included and described. Overall (OS), progression-free survival (PFS) and time to local relapse (TTLR) were evaluated from the time of first treatment. RESULTS Three of 20 centers enrolled 58% of the patients. Median age at diagnosis was 61 (range 25-94) years, 147 patients (52%) were males, 222 (78%) patients had their primary tumor located in an extremity while 36 (13%) and 25 (9%) had tumors involving the girdle and the trunk wall, respectively. The median size of primary tumors was 17 cm (range 2-48 cm). Adjuvant RT was given to 132 patients (47%). Patients who received adjuvant RT had larger tumors (P = 0.005), involving more often the distal limbs (P < 0.001). Use of adjuvant RT varied across centers and along the study period. Other characteristics were balanced between the two groups. Median follow-up was 61.7 months. None of the patients developed metastasis during follow-up. The 5-year local relapse-free survival rates were 98.3% versus 80.3% with and without adjuvant RT, respectively (P < 0.001). Once stratified on time period (before/after 2003), adjuvant RT, tumor site and margin status (R0 versus other) were independently associated with TTLR. No OS difference was observed (P = 0.105). CONCLUSION In this study, adjuvant RT following resection of ALT/WD-LPS was associated with a reduction of LR risk.

Abstract
Routine othodontic management is unavoidable in all patients with cleft lip and palate after primary surgery. This management combines dental arch alignment with maxillary expansion of the lesser fragment before alveolar bone grafting. To treat dental arch asymmetry, the space of the missing lateral incisor is preserved until the age of dental implant. Otherwise, dento-orthopedic treatment attempts to normalize transversal dental dimension once alveolar bone grafting is done in order to prepare the surgical advancement of the maxilla.

Abstract
Maxillary hypoplasia is a common sequel in cleft lip and palate deformities. After primary surgery to close lip and palate, patients routinely need extensive treatment particularly orthodontic management. With this type of approach, maxillary hypoplasia is less frequent and severe and subsequent orthognathic surgery is efficient in most cases. Without the proper management maxillary hypoplasia may be severe and patients will need a modified management and specific revision. At the end of maxillar growth, the first aim of treatment is to achieve continuity of the maxillary arch with gingivoperiosteoplasty. The transversal insufficiency can then be treated by distraction osteogenesis. Orthodontic treatment should leave place for missing teeth.

Abstract
Cleft lips and cleft palates are managed in the department of Pediatric surgery in Rouen for the last 30 years. From the antenatal diagnosis, the parents got in touch with the surgeon who will coordinate this management. Around thirty new patients are treated every year. The chronology of the treatment is of "classic" manner. The cleft lip is repaired at about 3 weeks of age and the palatoplasty is performed after the age of 1 year. In view to maintain the intimacy of the consultation we did not institute multidisciplinary consultations. The other members of the interdisciplinary team will intervene during the follow up depending on the form of the cleft and the encountered problems. The information and the files circulate freely and are discussed together.
