Abstract
BACKGROUND The incidence of cancer diagnosed during pregnancy is increasing. Data relating to investigation and management, as well as maternal and foetal outcomes is lacking in a United Kingdom (UK) population. METHODS In this retrospective study we report data from 119 patients diagnosed with cancer during pregnancy from 14 cancer centres in the UK across a five-year period (2016-2020). RESULTS Median age at diagnosis was 33 years, with breast, skin and haematological the most common primary sites. The majority of cases were new diagnoses (109 patients, 91.6%). Most patients were treated with radical intent (96 patients, 80.7%), however, gastrointestinal cancers were associated with a high rate of palliative intent treatment (63.6%). Intervention was commenced during pregnancy in 68 (57.1%) patients; 44 (37%) had surgery and 31 (26.1%) received chemotherapy. Live births occurred in 98 (81.7%) of the cases, with 54 (55.1%) of these delivered by caesarean section. Maternal mortality during the study period was 20.2%. CONCLUSIONS This is the first pan-tumour report of diagnosis, management and outcomes of cancer diagnosed during pregnancy in the UK. Our findings demonstrate proof of concept that data collection is feasible and highlight the need for further research in this cohort of patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sexuality and gender minoritised (SGM) adolescents are at increased risk of self-injury and suicide, and experience barriers to accessing mental health support. Dialectical behaviour therapy (DBT) is an effective treatment for self-injury and emotion dysregulation in adolescent populations, but few studies have published outcomes of DBT for SGM young people. AIMS This study aimed to investigate treatment outcomes and completion for SGM adolescents and their cisgender and heterosexual peers, in the National & Specialist CAMHS, DBT service (UK). METHOD Treatment completion, and opting out before and during treatment were examined for sexual and gender identity groups, as well as changes by the end of treatment in emotion dysregulation, self-injury, in-patient bed-days, emergency department attendances, and borderline personality disorder, depression and anxiety symptoms. RESULTS SGM adolescents were over-represented in this service, even after considering their increased risk for self-injury. No statistically significant differences were found for treatment completion between the sexual orientation and gender identity groups, although there were patterns indicating possible lower treatment uptake and completion that warrant further investigation. Clinical outcomes for treatment-completers showed improvement by the end of DBT for each group, with few exceptions. DISCUSSION These results are from relatively small subsamples, and it was not possible to separate by sex assigned at birth. Findings should be treated tentatively and as early indications of effect sizes to inform future studies. This study suggests that DBT could be a useful treatment for SGM adolescents in a highly specialist treatment setting.

Abstract
Anaesthetic practice contributes to climate change. Volatile capture technology, typically based on adsorption to a carbon- or silica-based substrate, has the potential to mitigate some of the harmful effects of using halogenated hydrocarbons. Anaesthetists have a professional responsibility to use anaesthetic agents which offer the greatest safety and clinical benefit with the lowest financial cost and environmental impacts. Inhalational anaesthetics should be used at an appropriate concentration with a minimal fresh gas flow via a circle system to minimise unnecessary waste. Once practice efficiencies have been maximised, only then should technical solutions such as volatile capture be employed. In this narrative review, we focus on the available literature relating to volatile capture technology, obtained via a targeted literature search and through contacting manufacturers and researchers. We found six studies focusing on the Blue-Zone Technologies Deltasorb®, SageTech Medical SID and Baxter/ZeoSys CONTRAfluran™ volatile capture systems. Though laboratory analyses of available systems suggest that > 95% in vitro mass transfer is possible for all three systems, the in vivo results for capture efficiency vary from 25% to 73%. Currently, there is no financial incentive for healthcare organisations to capture waste anaesthetic gases, and so the value of volatile capture technology requires quantification. System-level organisations, such as Greener NHS, are best positioned to commission such evaluations and make policy decisions to guide investment. Further research using volatile capture technology in real-world settings is necessary and we highlight some priority research questions to improve our understanding of the utility of this group of technologies.

Abstract
PURPOSE The optimal duration of post-radiation temozolomide in newly diagnosed glioblastoma remains unclear, with no published phase III randomised trials. Standard-of-care stipulates 6 months. However, in routine care, it is often extended to 12 months, despite lacking robust supporting data. METHODS GEINO14-01 (Spain) and EX-TEM (Australia) studies enrolled glioblastoma patients without progression at the end of 6 months post-radiation temozolomide. Participants were randomised 1:1 to six additional months of temozolomide or observation. Primary endpoint was 6-month progression free survival from date of randomisation (6mPFS). Secondary endpoints included overall survival (OS) and toxicity. 204 patients were required to detect an improvement in 6mPFS from 50 to 60% (80% power). Neither study recruited sufficient patients. We performed a combined analysis of individual patient data. RESULTS 205 patients were recruited: 159 in GEINO14-01 (2014-2018) and 46 in EX-TEM (2019-2022). Median follow-up was 20.0 and 14.5 months. Baseline characteristics were balanced. There was no significant improvement in 6mPFS (57.2% vs 64.0%, OR0.75, p = 0.4), nor across any subgroups, including MGMT methylated; PFS (HR0.92, p = 0.59, median 7.8 vs 9.7 months); or OS (HR1.03, p = 0.87, median 20.1 vs 19.4 months). During treatment extension, 64% experienced any grade adverse event, mainly fatigue and gastrointestinal (both 54%). Only a minority required treatment changes: 4.5% dose delay, 7.5% dose reduction, 1.5% temozolomide discontinuation. CONCLUSION For glioblastoma patients, extending post-radiation temozolomide from 6 to 12 months is well tolerated but does not improve 6mPFS. We could not identify any subset that benefitted from extended treatment. Six months should remain standard-of-care.

Abstract
Enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) for head and neck oncology patients was first introduced in 2017 and was found to improve patient outcomes, in line with results from other surgical specialties. This article presents a rapid recovery protocol (RRP) to further enhance perioperative care in conjunction with the ERAS protocol, for patients undergoing ablative surgery together with free flap reconstruction and tracheostomy. A prospective multidisciplinary approach was adopted to identify a specific cohort of patients who would benefit from the RRP. Of 26 patients who fulfilled the eligibility criteria, 16 completed the RRP. On average, these patients spent 5 days less with a tracheostomy and were discharged 7 days sooner when compared to a matched control group of nine patients on the standard postoperative care pathway. This resulted in an approximate monetary saving of £ 9955 per patient for the hospital trust. These results demonstrate that the feasibility study should be rolled out further, as the RRP not only decreased the length of stay but also provided substantial monetary savings without compromising patient outcomes.

Abstract
Pre-mRNA splicing is a highly coordinated process. While its dysregulation has been linked to neurological deficits, our understanding of the underlying molecular and cellular mechanisms remains limited. We implicated pathogenic variants in U2AF2 and PRPF19, encoding spliceosome subunits in neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs), by identifying 46 unrelated individuals with 23 de novo U2AF2 missense variants (including 7 recurrent variants in 30 individuals) and 6 individuals with de novo PRPF19 variants. Eight U2AF2 variants dysregulated splicing of a model substrate. Neuritogenesis was reduced in human neurons differentiated from human pluripotent stem cells carrying two U2AF2 hyper-recurrent variants. Neural loss of function (LoF) of the Drosophila orthologs U2af50 and Prp19 led to lethality, abnormal mushroom body (MB) patterning, and social deficits, which were differentially rescued by wild-type and mutant U2AF2 or PRPF19. Transcriptome profiling revealed splicing substrates or effectors (including Rbfox1, a third splicing factor), which rescued MB defects in U2af50-deficient flies. Upon reanalysis of negative clinical exomes followed by data sharing, we further identified 6 patients with NDD who carried RBFOX1 missense variants which, by in vitro testing, showed LoF. Our study implicates 3 splicing factors as NDD-causative genes and establishes a genetic network with hierarchy underlying human brain development and function.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitors reduce progression of chronic kidney disease and the risk of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in a wide range of patients. However, their effects on kidney disease progression in some patients with chronic kidney disease are unclear because few clinical kidney outcomes occurred among such patients in the completed trials. In particular, some guidelines stratify their level of recommendation about who should be treated with SGLT2 inhibitors based on diabetes status and albuminuria. We aimed to assess the effects of empagliflozin on progression of chronic kidney disease both overall and among specific types of participants in the EMPA-KIDNEY trial. METHODS EMPA-KIDNEY, a randomised, controlled, phase 3 trial, was conducted at 241 centres in eight countries (Canada, China, Germany, Italy, Japan, Malaysia, the UK, and the USA), and included individuals aged 18 years or older with an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) of 20 to less than 45 mL/min per 1·73 m2, or with an eGFR of 45 to less than 90 mL/min per 1·73 m2 with a urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (uACR) of 200 mg/g or higher. We explored the effects of 10 mg oral empagliflozin once daily versus placebo on the annualised rate of change in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR slope), a tertiary outcome. We studied the acute slope (from randomisation to 2 months) and chronic slope (from 2 months onwards) separately, using shared parameter models to estimate the latter. Analyses were done in all randomly assigned participants by intention to treat. EMPA-KIDNEY is registered at ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT03594110. FINDINGS Between May 15, 2019, and April 16, 2021, 6609 participants were randomly assigned and then followed up for a median of 2·0 years (IQR 1·5-2·4). Prespecified subgroups of eGFR included 2282 (34·5%) participants with an eGFR of less than 30 mL/min per 1·73 m2, 2928 (44·3%) with an eGFR of 30 to less than 45 mL/min per 1·73 m2, and 1399 (21·2%) with an eGFR 45 mL/min per 1·73 m2 or higher. Prespecified subgroups of uACR included 1328 (20·1%) with a uACR of less than 30 mg/g, 1864 (28·2%) with a uACR of 30 to 300 mg/g, and 3417 (51·7%) with a uACR of more than 300 mg/g. Overall, allocation to empagliflozin caused an acute 2·12 mL/min per 1·73 m2 (95% CI 1·83-2·41) reduction in eGFR, equivalent to a 6% (5-6) dip in the first 2 months. After this, it halved the chronic slope from -2·75 to -1·37 mL/min per 1·73 m2 per year (relative difference 50%, 95% CI 42-58). The absolute and relative benefits of empagliflozin on the magnitude of the chronic slope varied significantly depending on diabetes status and baseline levels of eGFR and uACR. In particular, the absolute difference in chronic slopes was lower in patients with lower baseline uACR, but because this group progressed more slowly than those with higher uACR, this translated to a larger relative difference in chronic slopes in this group (86% [36-136] reduction in the chronic slope among those with baseline uACR <30 mg/g compared with a 29% [19-38] reduction for those with baseline uACR ≥2000 mg/g; ptrend<0·0001). INTERPRETATION Empagliflozin slowed the rate of progression of chronic kidney disease among all types of participant in the EMPA-KIDNEY trial, including those with little albuminuria. Albuminuria alone should not be used to determine whether to treat with an SGLT2 inhibitor. FUNDING Boehringer Ingelheim and Eli Lilly.

Impact of primary kidney disease on the effects of empagliflozin in patients with chronic kidney disease: secondary analyses of the EMPA-KIDNEY trial. Lancet Diabetes Endocrinol 2024; 12:51-60.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The EMPA-KIDNEY trial showed that empagliflozin reduced the risk of the primary composite outcome of kidney disease progression or cardiovascular death in patients with chronic kidney disease mainly through slowing progression. We aimed to assess how effects of empagliflozin might differ by primary kidney disease across its broad population. METHODS EMPA-KIDNEY, a randomised, controlled, phase 3 trial, was conducted at 241 centres in eight countries (Canada, China, Germany, Italy, Japan, Malaysia, the UK, and the USA). Patients were eligible if their estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was 20 to less than 45 mL/min per 1·73 m2, or 45 to less than 90 mL/min per 1·73 m2 with a urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (uACR) of 200 mg/g or higher at screening. They were randomly assigned (1:1) to 10 mg oral empagliflozin once daily or matching placebo. Effects on kidney disease progression (defined as a sustained ≥40% eGFR decline from randomisation, end-stage kidney disease, a sustained eGFR below 10 mL/min per 1·73 m2, or death from kidney failure) were assessed using prespecified Cox models, and eGFR slope analyses used shared parameter models. Subgroup comparisons were performed by including relevant interaction terms in models. EMPA-KIDNEY is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT03594110. FINDINGS Between May 15, 2019, and April 16, 2021, 6609 participants were randomly assigned and followed up for a median of 2·0 years (IQR 1·5-2·4). Prespecified subgroupings by primary kidney disease included 2057 (31·1%) participants with diabetic kidney disease, 1669 (25·3%) with glomerular disease, 1445 (21·9%) with hypertensive or renovascular disease, and 1438 (21·8%) with other or unknown causes. Kidney disease progression occurred in 384 (11·6%) of 3304 patients in the empagliflozin group and 504 (15·2%) of 3305 patients in the placebo group (hazard ratio 0·71 [95% CI 0·62-0·81]), with no evidence that the relative effect size varied significantly by primary kidney disease (pheterogeneity=0·62). The between-group difference in chronic eGFR slopes (ie, from 2 months to final follow-up) was 1·37 mL/min per 1·73 m2 per year (95% CI 1·16-1·59), representing a 50% (42-58) reduction in the rate of chronic eGFR decline. This relative effect of empagliflozin on chronic eGFR slope was similar in analyses by different primary kidney diseases, including in explorations by type of glomerular disease and diabetes (p values for heterogeneity all >0·1). INTERPRETATION In a broad range of patients with chronic kidney disease at risk of progression, including a wide range of non-diabetic causes of chronic kidney disease, empagliflozin reduced risk of kidney disease progression. Relative effect sizes were broadly similar irrespective of the cause of primary kidney disease, suggesting that SGLT2 inhibitors should be part of a standard of care to minimise risk of kidney failure in chronic kidney disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Early phase cancer clinical trials (EPCTs) involve experimental drugs being used for the first time in humans. These studies are designed for dose determination and safety, and represent the most time intensive of all clinical trials for both clinicians and patients. We sought to quantify the amount of patient time consumed through EPCT participation. PATIENTS AND METHODS A retrospective audit of patients treated in the EPCT unit at Liverpool Hospital, Sydney was carried out from 2013 to 2023. We defined 'time toxicity' (TT) as a composite measure where time-toxic days were considered days with any health care system contact, including clinic visits, infusions, procedures or blood work. RESULTS A total of 219 patients across 36 EPCTs were included. The median age was 65 years (range 31-81 years). Patients spent a median of 29% (range 4%-100%) of their days in direct contact with the health care system during their study. Protocol-specified visits accounted for the greatest contribution to total TT in 101 (46%) patients. In 7% (n = 16) of patients, unscheduled visits due to either adverse events or cancer-related symptoms accounted for the greatest TT. TT reduced as patients completed additional cycles of treatment. Patients who completed >10 cycles spent 14% of their days interacting with health care systems compared with 35% for those who completed ≤2 cycles. No statistically significant difference in TT was noted between dose-expansion and dose-escalation studies or trials focusing on immune-oncology versus targeted therapy. CONCLUSIONS Our study is the first to report TT in EPCTs with an extended follow-up. Clinicians should be aware of TT when discussing risks and benefits. TT also may not be the appropriate term when describing the time patients invest during EPCTs. Toxicity implies a negative impact, but for many patients, trial participation would be seen as positive. There should be efforts to streamline health care visits to limit TT in EPCTs.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The goal was to characterize short-term kidney status and describe variation in early care utilization in a multicenter cohort of patients with childhood-onset systemic lupus erythematosus (cSLE) and nephritis. METHODS We analyzed previously collected prospective data from North American patients with cSLE with kidney biopsy-proven nephritis enrolled in the Childhood Arthritis and Rheumatology Research Alliance (CARRA) Registry from March 2017 through December 2019. We determined the proportion of patients with abnormal kidney status at the most recent registry visit and applied generalized linear mixed models to identify associated factors. We also calculated frequency of medication use, both during induction and ever recorded. RESULTS We identified 222 patients with kidney biopsy-proven nephritis, with 64% class III/IV nephritis on initial biopsy. At the most recent registry visit at median (interquartile range) of 17 (8-29) months from initial kidney biopsy, 58 of 106 patients (55%) with available data had abnormal kidney status. This finding was associated with male sex (odds ratio [OR] 3.88, 95% confidence interval [95% CI] 1.21-12.46) and age at cSLE diagnosis (OR 1.23, 95% CI 1.01-1.49). Patients with class IV nephritis were more likely than class III to receive cyclophosphamide and rituximab during induction. There was substantial variation in mycophenolate, cyclophosphamide, and rituximab ever use patterns across rheumatology centers. CONCLUSION In this cohort with predominately class III/IV nephritis, male sex and older age at cSLE diagnosis were associated with abnormal short-term kidney status. We also observed substantial variation in contemporary medication use for pediatric lupus nephritis between pediatric rheumatology centers. Additional studies are needed to better understand the impact of this variation on long-term kidney outcomes.

Abstract
Ecosystem structure and function are increasingly threatened by changing climate, with profound effects observed globally in recent decades. Based on standardized visual censuses of reef biodiversity, we describe 27 years of community-level change for fishes, mobile macroinvertebrates and macroalgae in the Tasmanian ocean-warming hotspot. Significant ecological change was observed across 94 reef sites (5-10 m depth range) spanning four coastal regions between three periods (1992-95, 2006-07, 2017-19), which occurred against a background of pronounced sea temperature rise (+0.80°C on average). Overall, fish biomass increased, macroinvertebrate species richness and abundance decreased and macroalgal cover decreased, particularly during the most recent decade. While reef communities were relatively stable and warming was slight between the 1990s and mid-2000s (+0.12°C mean temperature rise), increased abundances of warm affinity fishes and invertebrates accompanied warming during the most recent decade (+0.68°C rise). However, significant rises in the community temperature index (CTI) were only found for fishes, invertebrates and macroalgae in some regions. Coastal warming was associated with increased fish biomass of non-targeted species in fished zones but had little effect on reef communities within marine reserves. Higher abundances of larger fishes and lobsters inside reserves appeared to negate impacts of 'thermophilization'.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Children with juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) who achieve a drug free remission often experience a flare of their disease requiring either intraarticular steroids (IAS) or systemic treatment with disease modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (DMARDs). IAS offer an opportunity to recapture disease control and avoid exposure to side effects from systemic immunosuppression. We examined a cohort of patients treated with IAS after drug free remission and report the probability of restarting systemic treatment within 12 months. METHODS We analyzed a cohort of patients from the Childhood Arthritis and Rheumatology Research Alliance (CARRA) Registry who received IAS for a flare after a period of drug free remission. Historical factors and clinical characteristics and of the patients including data obtained at the time of treatment were analyzed. RESULTS We identified 46 patients who met the inclusion criteria. Of those with follow up data available 49% had restarted systemic treatment 6 months after IAS injection and 70% had restarted systemic treatment at 12 months. The proportion of patients with prior use of a biologic DMARD was the only factor that differed between patients who restarted systemic treatment those who did not, both at 6 months (79% vs 35%, p < 0.01) and 12 months (81% vs 33%, p < 0.05). CONCLUSION While IAS are an option for all patients who flare after drug free remission, it may not prevent the need to restart systemic treatment. Prior use of a biologic DMARD may predict lack of success for IAS. Those who previously received methotrexate only, on the other hand, are excellent candidates for IAS.

Abstract
Background It is not known whether emergency departments (EDs) with primary care services influence demand for non-urgent care (‘provider-induced demand’). We proposed that distinct primary care services in EDs encourages primary care demand, whereas primary care integrated within EDs may be less likely to cause additional demand. We aimed to explore this and explain contexts (C), mechanisms (M) and outcomes (O) influencing demand. Methods We used realist evaluation methodology and observed ED service delivery. Twenty-four patients and 106 staff members (including Clinical Directors and General Practitioners) were interviewed at 13 EDs in England and Wales (240 hours of observations across 30 days). Field notes from observations and interviews were analysed by creating ‘CMO’ configurations to develop and refine theories relating to drivers of demand. Results EDs with distinct primary care services were perceived to attract demand for primary care because services were visible, known or enabled direct access to health care services. Other influencing factors included patients’ experiences of accessing primary care, community care capacity, service design and population characteristics. Conclusions Patient, local-system and wider-system factors can contribute to additional demand at EDs that include primary care services. Our findings can inform service providers and policymakers in developing strategies to limit the effect of potential influences on additional demand when demand exceeds capacity.

Abstract
AIM To determine which filtering face piece (FFP3) respirators worn throughout the COVID-19 pandemic are safe for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). MATERIALS AND METHODS Three clinical MRI sequences were performed to assess imaging artefacts, grid distortion, and local heating for eight commercially available FFP3 respirators. All examinations were performed at Cardiff University Brain Research Imaging Centre using a 3 T Siemens Magnetom Prisma with a 64-channel head and neck coil. Each FFP3 mask was positioned on a custom-developed three-dimensional (3D) head phantom for testing. RESULTS Five of the eight FFP3 masks contained ferromagnetic components and were regarded as "MRI unsafe". One mask was considered "MRI conditional" and only two masks were deemed "MRI safe" for both MRI staff and patients. Temperature strips positioned at the nasal bridge of the phantom did not exhibit local heating. A maximum grid distortion of 5 mm was seen in the anterior portion of the head of the ferromagnetic FFP3 masks. CONCLUSION This study has demonstrated the importance of assessing respiratory FFP3 masks for use in and around MRI machines. Future research involving FFP3 masks can be conducted safely by following the procedures laid out in this study.

Abstract
BackgroundEvidence shows that around half of the patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) develop irreversible organ damage due to the disease itself or to other factors (e.g., steroid treatment). It is essential to have a comprehensive understanding of factors that predict organ damage progression to identify at-risk patients and inform clinical decision making.ObjectivesTo develop an algorithm, using machine learning (ML) methodology, that predicts organ damage progression in SLE patients.MethodsThe Spanish Society of Rheumatology Lupus Registry (RELESSER) with patient records from 45 Rheumatology Units across Spain was used. RELESSER data were collected from 2011 to 2021 and captured demographic and comprehensive clinical information. In this analysis, a sample of 2,676 patients was used. The Systemic Lupus International Collaborating Clinics/American College of Rheumatology Damage Index (SDI) was used to measure organ damage progression between 2015 (start of the prospective data collection in RELESSER) and 2020.To predict the risk of an increase in the SDI, 102 variables were identified as potential predictors. A ML model (gradient boosting trees) was developed and validated by a simple logistic regression (LG) model. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUCROC) was used to quantify the improvement over random chance (an AUCROC of 0.5). Shapley Additive Explanation (SHAP) values were used in the ML model to identify predictors and their contribution to damage progression.ResultsOf all patients, 13% experienced organ damage progression, with 2-year patient follow-up. The ML algorithm was better at identifying these patients (AUCROC 0.68) than the LG model (AUCROC 0.63) (Figure 1). ML model performance can be contextualized using a random sample of 100 SLE patients of whom 13 suffered organ damage progression, the model would successfully identify 12. However, 66 additional patients would be incorrectly identified (True Positive 90%; False Positive 79%). The top 5 predictors of damage progression, across all patients, were patient age >49 years,Figure 1.ROC AUC plotCreatinine > 0.9 mg/dl, cardiovascular-related disease complications (> 3 complications), low hematocrit level recorded recently (<41.9 months ago), and triglycerides > 81.5 mg/dl. At the patient level, the 5 patients with the highest predicted risk had strong predictors of progression, with key predictors being patient age at study entry >49 years, age at diagnosis >40 years, cardiovascular-related disease complications, and increased creatinine >0.9 mg/dl. The 5 patients with the lowest predicted risk had strong predictors of no change with key predictors being not having a low hematocrit level recorded recently, triglycerides <81.5 mg/dl and patient age at study entry <49 years.ConclusionWe developed a machine learning model, using an exhaustive set of variables in RELESSER which successfully predicted short-term organ damage progression in SLE patients, and outperformed a standard regression model. If the model were to be used as a clinical tool, only light-touch interventions should be carried out due to high false positive rate. Further model optimizations, including exposing the model to longer follow-up data and testing it in non-Spanish patients is needed.Disclosure of InterestsJose M Pego-Reigosa Speakers bureau: Eli Lilly, GSK, Consultant of: AstraZeneca, GSK, MSD, Eli Lilly, Grant/research support from: The RELESSER registry was funded by grants from GSK, UCB, Roche and Novartis, WALID FAKHOURI Shareholder of: Eli Lilly and Company, Employee of: Eli Lilly and Company, Silvia Díaz-Cerezo Shareholder of: Eli Lilly and Company, Employee of: Eli Lilly and Company, Aidan Cooper Consultant of: Salaried employee of IQVIA while conducting the analyses for this study, Anne-Marie Saunders Consultant of: Salaried employee of IQVIA while conducting the analyses for this study, Grace Segall Consultant of: Salaried employee of IQVIA throughout conceptualization, design and execution of analysis for this study, Employee of: Eli Lilly and Company throughout finalization of analysis and abstract development for this study, Christophe Sapin Shareholder of: Eli Lilly and Company, Employee of: Eli Lilly and Company, Sebastian Moyano Employee of: Eli Lilly and Company, Iñigo Rua-Figueroa Grant/research support from: The RELESSER registry was funded by grants from GSK, UCB, Roche and Novartis

Abstract
BACKGROUND Social determinants of health (SDH) greatly influence outcomes during the first year of treatment in rheumatoid arthritis, a disease similar to polyarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis (pJIA). We investigated the correlation of community poverty level and other SDH with the persistence of moderate to severe disease activity and functional disability over the first year of treatment in pJIA patients enrolled in the Childhood Arthritis and Rheumatology Research Alliance Registry. METHODS In this cohort study, unadjusted and adjusted generalized linear mixed effects models analyzed the effect of community poverty and other SDH on disease activity, using the clinical Juvenile Arthritis Disease Activity Score-10, and disability, using the Child Health Assessment Questionnaire, measured at baseline, 6, and 12 months. RESULTS One thousand six hundred eighty-four patients were identified. High community poverty (≥20% living below the federal poverty level) was associated with increased odds of functional disability (OR 1.82, 95% CI 1.28-2.60) but was not statistically significant after adjustment (aOR 1.23, 95% CI 0.81-1.86) and was not associated with increased disease activity. Non-white race/ethnicity was associated with higher disease activity (aOR 2.48, 95% CI: 1.41-4.36). Lower self-reported household income was associated with higher disease activity and persistent functional disability. Public insurance (aOR 1.56, 95% CI 1.06-2.29) and low family education (aOR 1.89, 95% CI 1.14-3.12) was associated with persistent functional disability. CONCLUSION High community poverty level was associated with persistent functional disability in unadjusted analysis but not with persistent moderate to high disease activity. Race/ethnicity and other SDH were associated with persistent disease activity and functional disability.

Abstract
STUDY QUESTION What are couples' decisional conflicts around family-building approaches before and after seeking a specialty consultation for infertility? SUMMARY ANSWER Decisional conflict is high among couples before an initial specialty consultation for infertility; on average, women resolved decisional conflict more quickly than men. WHAT IS KNOWN ALREADY Couples have multiple options for addressing infertility, and decisional conflict may arise due to lack of information, uncertainty about options and potential risks or challenges to personal values. STUDY DESIGN, SIZE, DURATION We conducted a total of 385 interviews and 405 surveys for this longitudinal, mixed-methods cohort study of 34 opposite-sex couples who sought a new reproductive specialty consultation (n = 68), who enrolled before the initial consultation and were followed over 12 months. PARTICIPANTS/MATERIALS, SETTING, METHODS The in-depth, semi-structured interviews included questions about information gathering, deliberation and decision-making, and self-administered surveys included the Decisional Conflict Scale (DCS), at six time points over 12 months. A DCS total score of 25 is associated with implementing a decision, and higher scores indicate more decisional conflict. A systematic content analysis of interview transcripts identified major themes. Paired t tests identified differences in DCS between women and men within couples. Linear mixed models predicted changes in DCS over time, adjusting for sociodemographic and fertility-related factors. MAIN RESULTS AND THE ROLE OF CHANCE The major qualitative themes were communication with partners, feeling supported and/or pressured in decision (s), changing decisions over time and ability to execute a desired decision. Average DCS scores were highest before the initial consultation. Within couples, men had significantly higher decisional conflict than women pre-consultation (48.9 versus 40.2, P = 0.037) and at 2 months (28.9 versus 22.1, P = 0.015), but differences at other time points were not significant. In adjusted models, predicted DCS scores declined over time, with women, on average, reaching the DCS threshold for implementing a decision at 2 months while for men it was not until 4 months. LIMITATIONS, REASONS FOR CAUTION This is a convenience sample from a single center, and generalizability may be limited. WIDER IMPLICATIONS OF THE FINDINGS Understanding how couples discuss and make decisions regarding family-building could improve the delivery of patient-centered infertility care. Our findings are the first to prospectively explore decisional conflict at multiple time points in both men and women; the observed gender differences underlie the importance of supporting both partners in clinical decision-making for infertility.

Abstract
Marine sedimentary ancient DNA (sedaDNA) is increasingly used to study past ocean ecosystems, however, studies have been severely limited by the very low amounts of DNA preserved in the subseafloor, and the lack of bioinformatic tools to authenticate sedaDNA in metagenomic data. We applied a hybridisation capture 'baits' technique to target marine eukaryote sedaDNA (specifically, phyto- and zooplankton, 'Planktonbaits1'; and harmful algal bloom taxa, 'HABbaits1'), which resulted in up to 4- and 9-fold increases, respectively, in the relative abundance of eukaryotes compared to shotgun sequencing. We further used the bioinformatic tool 'HOPS' to authenticate the sedaDNA component, establishing a new proxy to assess sedaDNA authenticity, "% eukaryote sedaDNA damage", that is positively correlated with subseafloor depth. We used this proxy to report the first-ever DNA damage profiles from a marine phytoplankton species, the ubiquitous coccolithophore Emiliania huxleyi. Our approach opens new avenues for the detailed investigation of long-term change and evolution of marine eukaryotes over geological timescales.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
In patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D), optimal management of cardiovascular (CV) risk factors is critical for primary prevention of CV disease.
Purpose
To describe the association of country income and patient socioeconomic factors with risk factor control in patients with T2D.
Methods
DISCOVER is a 37-country, prospective, observational study of 15,983 patients with T2D enrolled between January 2016 and December 2018 at initiation of 2nd-line glucose-lowering therapy and followed for 3 years. In patients without known CV disease with sub-optimally controlled risk factors at baseline, we examined achievement of risk factor control (HbA1c <7%, BP <140/90 mmHg, appropriate statin) at the 3 year follow-up. Countries were stratified by gross national income (GNI)/capita, per World Bank report. We explored variability across countries in risk factor control achievement using hierarchical logistic regression models and examined the association of country- and patient-level economic factors with risk factor control.
Results
Among 9,613 patients with T2D but without CV disease (mean age 57.2 years, 47.9% women), 83.1%, 37.5%, and 66.3% did not have optimal control of glucose, BP, and statins, respectively, at baseline. Of these, 40.8%, 55.5%, and 28.6% achieved optimal control at 3 years of follow-up. There was substantial variability in achievement of risk factor control across countries (Figure) but no association of country GNI/capita on achievement of risk factor control (Table). Insurance status, which differed substantially by GNI group, was strongly associated with glycemic control, with no insurance and public insurance associated with lower odds of patients achieving HbA1c <7%.
Conclusions
In a global cohort of patients with T2D, a substantial proportion do not achieve risk factor control even after 3 years of follow-up. The variability across countries in risk factor control is not explained by the GNI/capita of the country.

Abstract
Background:Adult-onset Still’s disease (AOSD) and systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis (SJIA) are rare autoinflammatory disorders associated with an activated IL-1 pathway, characterized by spiking fever, rash, arthritis, lymphadenopathy, hepatosplenomegaly and serositis. There is a growing understanding that SJIA and AOSD are one disease with different ages of onset, i.e. Still’s disease. The anaSTILLs study (anakinra inStill´sdisease) was designed to further evaluate efficacy and safety of anakinra in patients with Still´s disease across all age groups.Objectives:The primary objective was to demonstrate efficacy of anakinra versus placebo as assessed by ACR30 response with absence of fever at Week 2. Secondary objectives included: early onset of efficacy, sustained efficacy, time to study drug discontinuation, safety, pharmacokinetics, clinical signs and biomarkers.Methods:‘anaSTILLs’ was a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, 12-week study including patients with active and newly diagnosed (6 months) Still´s disease according to adapted ILAR criteria if <16, or Yamaguchi criteria, if ≥16 years of age at disease onset. Patients were randomized to anakinra 2 mg/kg (max 100 mg/day), 4 mg/kg (max 200 mg/day) or placebo.Results:12 patients were randomized and received study drug: 6 anakinra (2 mg/kg n=2, 4 mg/kg n=4) and 6 placebo, the study was terminated early due to slow recruitment. 1 patient on placebo had lymphoma, not Still’s disease, and was excluded; thus in total 11 patients were analyzed for efficacy, 8 were children [median (range) age=4.0 (1-11) years] and 3 were adults [median (range) age=32.0 (25-51) years]. 55% were male and the mean symptom duration was 74.2 days. All patients on anakinra but none on placebo achieved ACR30 response with absence of fever at Week 2 (p-value=0.0022). The efficacy of anakinra was further demonstrated by superiority to placebo in ACR50/70/90 responses with absence of fever at Week 2. All placebo patients discontinued the study within 6 weeks, 2 due to progressive disease, 2 due to lack of efficacy and 1 due to withdrawal by patient. There was a numerically higher proportion with early onset of efficacy (Week 1) in the anakinra group compared to placebo. The ACR30/50/70/90 responses in the anakinra group were sustained throughout the study period. Patients in the anakinra group had a prompt and persistent decrease in CRP and ferritin levels at Week 1, which was not observed in the placebo group. There were no unexpected safety findings. All anakinra patients developed anti-drug antibodies (ADAs) at some timepoint during the study. ADAs were persistent throughout the treatment period, except in one patient. Titers were low to moderate. One placebo patient had low ADA titers at one occasion. No neutralizing antibodies were observed and the ADAs did not appear to impact clinical efficacy or safety.Conclusion:Anakinra is superior to placebo in the treatment of Still’s disease. ADAs occur frequently but do not appear to adversely impact efficacy or safety. These results confirm the benefits of anakinra treatment in patients with active, newly diagnosed Still´s disease across ages.Disclosure of Interests:Laura Schanberg Grant/research support from: Sobi, BMS, Consultant of: Aurinia, UCB, Sanofi, Peter Nigrovic Grant/research support from: Novartis, BMS, Pfizer, Consultant of: Novartis, BMS, Pfizer, Sobi, Miach Orthopedics, Simcere, XBiotech, Quench Bio, Ashley Cooper: None declared, Winn Chatham Grant/research support from: Sobi, Consultant of: Sobi, Shoghik Akoghlanian: None declared, Namrata Singh: None declared, Egla Rabinovich Grant/research support from: AbbVie, UCB Pharma, Janssen Research & Development, Akaluck Thatayatikom: None declared, Alysha Taxter: None declared, Jonathan Hausmann Consultant of: Novartis, Milan Zdravkovic Shareholder of: Sobi, Employee of: Sobi, Sven Ohlman Shareholder of: Sobi, Employee of: Former employee of Sobi, Henrik Andersson Employee of: Sobi, Susanna Cederholm Shareholder of: Sobi, Employee of: Sobi, Margareta Wikén Shareholder of: Sobi, Employee of: Former employee of Sobi, Rayfel Schneider Grant/research support from: Roche, Novartis, Sobi, Pfizer, Consultant of: Sobi, Novartis, Novimmune, Fabrizio De Benedetti Grant/research support from: AbbVie, Pfizer, Novartis, Novimmune, Sobi, Sanofi, Roche, Speakers bureau: AbbVie, Novartis, Roche, Sobi

Abstract
Abstract
A total of 19 government and private industry laboratories in Canada and the United States participated in the collaborative study. Naturally contaminated ground poultry and animal meals, as well as inoculated raw shrimp, were examined for presence of Salmonella by both the modified immunodiffusion method and the Bacteriological Analytical Manual culture method, resulting in an agreement rate of 93.1%. The 2 methods are statistically equivalent for all food types at each inoculation level and for all lots of naturally contaminated foods evaluated in this study. The modification of the AOAC Official Method 989.13, immunodiffusion (1–2 TEST) method for detection of motile Salmonella in all foods, has been adopted revised first action by AOAC INTERNATIONAL.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) is a complex multisystem genetic disorder. Approximately 84% of people with TSC have epilepsy. However, there is little literature available regarding families' experiences with TSC and seizure management. Therefore, the aim of the current study was to explore families' positive and negative experiences, and attitudes towards TSC, epilepsy and medical management of seizures. METHODS Framework analysis informed an open exploration of families' experiences with TSC, epilepsy and medical management of seizures. Using structured interviews, 11 parents of people with TSC and 2 people with TSC were interviewed, providing the data set for transcription and thematic analysis. RESULTS 'TSC rules our life' overarched three subordinate themes: 'Our normal', 'Burnout' and 'Seizure management has given us our life back'. Families had to adapt to the normality of needing to constantly supervise their child even as they become an adult. They express a feeling of fear particularly of seizures, and this has impact throughout the family. There are frequent expressions of exhaustion and struggling to fight for access and support. There are some positives and cautious hope with the gaining of control from seizures as being able to predict or plan improves activity and participation. These interviews provided a rich insight into the lives of those with TSC and their families. CONCLUSION There are exciting developments with respect to scientific understanding of the pathophysiology of TSC, which opens opportunity for new treatments. Holistic family centred health care and practical support (e.g. opportunities for parental respite) is as important as medical intervention. As TSC is such a complex condition, there is a need for specialist clinics and TSC-specific research.

Abstract
The language used by healthcare professionals can have a profound impact on how people living with diabetes, and those who care for them, experience their condition and feel about living with it day-to-day. At its best, good use of language, both verbal and written, can lower anxiety, build confidence, educate and help to improve self-care. Conversely, poor communication can be stigmatizing, hurtful and undermining of self-care and can have a detrimental effect on clinical outcomes. The language used in the care of those with diabetes has the power to reinforce negative stereotypes, but it also has the power to promote positive ones. The use of language is controversial and has many perspectives. The development of this position statement aimed to take account of these as well as the current evidence base. A working group, representing people with diabetes and key organizations with an interest in the care of people with diabetes, was established to review the use of language. The work of this group has culminated in this position statement for England. It follows the contribution of Australia and the USA to this important international debate. The group has set out practical examples of language that will encourage positive interactions with those living with diabetes and subsequently promote positive outcomes. These examples are based on a review of the evidence and are supported by a simple set of principles.

Abstract
Background and context: BreastScreen Victoria (BSV) provides free breast screening to women aged 40+, targeting women aged 50-74. The program reduces breast cancer deaths by up to 28%. Primary care is important in improving uptake of breast screening. In particular, a recommendation from a health professional is a strong influencer. Many general practitioners (GPs) recommend screening, however, it is important to expand recruitment to other health professionals given many women do not visit a GP regularly. Community pharmacists and pharmacy staff may be a trusted source of health information, and are potentially an underutilized opportunity to promote breast screening to women. Based on this gap, BSV developed a three month pharmacy-based screening awareness campaign that was trialed in community pharmacies throughout 2017/18. The campaign is based on a UK community pharmacy model that was shown to successfully increase public awareness about cancer screening. Aim: BSV aims to diversify the types of health professionals that recommend screening to reach women who do not visit a GP regularly. The aim of the pharmacy-based breast screening awareness campaign is to: • build capacity of pharmacy staff to deliver breast screening messages to their communities • increase awareness of breast screening in women aged 50-74 • increase awareness of breast screening among family and friends of women Strategy/Tactics: BSV's pharmacy-based breast screening awareness campaign was trialed in 4 community pharmacies in 2017. Each pharmacy received a grant of up to $1550 which enabled them to: • allow pharmacy staff to attend training to increase their knowledge of breast screening and the campaign • display BreastScreen collateral throughout the store to provide information and prompt queries • initiate conversations and answer questions about breast screening • monitor campaign activity via a number of methods Outcomes: • Posttraining, 100% of staff were confident in promoting breast screening to customers • Staff across 4 pharmacies had 638 conversations about breast screening with customers (average 160/pharmacy). The majority were with women in the target age group • Most pharmacies suggested shortening the campaign to 2 months • All pharmacies said the funding was a critical motivator to participation • All pharmacies stated that the campaign was worthwhile, and allowed them to participate in health promotion Two additional trials are scheduled to test a reduced campaign duration and funding model. Results will be available later in 2018 What was learned: • Many women do not visit their GP regularly • Community pharmacists and pharmacy staff are an underutilized opportunity to promote breast screening • Delivering cancer screening messages through community pharmacies is an effective way to reach women aged 50-74 • Pharmacy funding and training are critical in enabling pharmacies to deliver a breast screening awareness campaign

Abstract
Background: Bowel cancer is a preventable condition, yet it is the second most common cancer after prostate cancer, with one in 12 Australians developing the disease by age 85. If detected early, the chances of survival are very high. One way to detect bowel cancer before it becomes a problem is through the use of a screening kit. The Australian government has distributed free kits to specific age groups since 2006, through their National Bowel Cancer Screening Program (NBCSP). Participation in the NBCSP is currently quite low (39% Australia-wide). In Tasmania, participation rates among local government areas (LGAs) range from 28% to 47%. These differences in participation are especially apparent in rural and remote areas and form the focus of this research. Aim: Our research aims to determine why there are marked differences in National Bowel Cancer Screening Program participation rates between rural LGAs in Tasmania. Secondary aims include developing future strategies for increased screening uptake in rural Tasmania. Method: A total of four LGAs, identified as having either high (n=2) or low (n=2) NBCSP participation rates, were included in the study. Face to face interviews with community members and stakeholders across the four LGAs were recorded and transcribed to obtain qualitative data. A total of 50 male and female community members aged 50-75 were recruited and interviewed regardless of whether they had used the NBCSP kit. A total of 28 health professionals including doctors, pharmacists, nurses and health promotion officers, working in each of the four LGAs were also interviewed. All interviews were recorded and transcribed. Thematic analysis was conducted to elucidate common barriers and enablers for screening, as well as suggestions for increasing NBCSP participation rates in Tasmania. Demographic data including age, gender, and educational attainment were collected from community members to further identify potential associations with screening participation. Results: All interviews have been successfully completed and transcribed, and thematic analysis has begun. Themes emerging from the data to date include the importance of community connectedness; the role of women in encouraging men to screen; health literacy; new/transient versus established/stable communities; and access to follow-up colonoscopies. Final results will be available shortly and presented in full. Conclusion: The findings from this study will highlight differences and reasons for screening participation in four rural Tasmanian LGAs. The results will have implications for the NBCSP in terms of recommendations for increasing participation in the program.

Abstract
Background: One in 12 Australians is expected to develop bowel cancer by age 85. Over 90% of bowel cancers can be successfully treated if detected early yet participation rates in the National Bowel Cancer Screening Program (NBCSP) are currently only 39%. Research shows that general practitioner (GP) recommendation is a key predictor for bowel cancer screening uptake. However the current NBCSP invitation system does not involve GPs, making it difficult for them to know when a patient has received a test kit in the mail, and in turn play a role in screening behavior. Research suggests that GP point-of-care clinical prompts, encouraging GPs to discuss screening with their patients, can increase fecal occult blood testing. Such a ´reminder´ system is integral to other screening programs in Australia, however no such system exists for the NBCSP. The George Town Medical Centre located in rural Tasmania, has recently implemented a reminder prompt for bowel cancer screening as part of its standard clinical practice. This paper describes the protocol used to implement and evaluate this service. Aim: Our research aims to determine whether a clinical prompt delivered to GPs at point-of-care, can increase bowel cancer screening participation in patients attending a rural Tasmanian general practice. Secondary aims include assessing GP and patient attitudes toward the prompt and determining socio-demographic differences in the effect of the prompt on screening participation. Methods: The clinical prompt was implemented in January 2018. Active patients turning 50 (n=106), 60 (n=141) or 70 (n=103) in 2018 were eligible to receive the prompt. The prompt was created within the practice management software and associated with each eligible patient's file. GPs were provided with information on the NBCSP as well as resources to support their conversation with patients including a sample kit. The number of patients with whom the GP discussed screening and the number of patients who completed a kit will be collected after 12 months. Screening rates of patients eligible for the prompt will be compared with patients turning 54, 64 and 74 in 2018, controlling for potential covariates including age, gender and socioeconomic status. Interviews with all GPs (n=10) and a minimum of 10 patients will be conducted to gain an understanding of attitudes toward the prompt. Results: To date the prompt has been successfully integrated into the practice and GPs have begun encouraging patients to use their NBCSP kits. Attitudes of GPs and patients toward the prompt and preliminary data on kit usage will also be presented. Conclusion: A clinical prompt in general practice may be a simple and cost effective way to increase participation in the National Bowel Cancer Screening Program. The findings from this study will have implications for the program in terms of engaging GPs in the screening invitation process. The results will further be used to inform a pilot study in Tasmania.

Abstract
Background: It is recommended that Australian women aged 50-74 have a breast screen every two years. Aboriginal women have lower breast screening participation than the general population, and face barriers at a system, service and individual level including: • Cultural: lack of cultural awareness/safety at screening services • Fear: historical apprehension about health services due to the after effects of colonization and intergenerational trauma • Shame: feeling embarrassment/shame at being undressed in front of a stranger • Past experience: having a past unpleasant breast screen, or hearing about someone else' • Knowledge: lack of knowledge about screening • Logistics: not knowing service provider locations or limited access to transport During a 2016 project between BreastScreen Victoria (BSV) and Women's Health West, Aboriginal women discussed the need for a shawl to cover them during screening. This idea is based on a successful New Zealand model. Based on this, the Victorian Aboriginal Health Service (VAHS), Victorian Aboriginal Community Controlled Health Organization (VACCHO) and BSV formed a partnership to trial a breast screening shawl with Aboriginal women. A key principle underpinning the project is that success will reflect the degree to which this is an Aboriginal-led initiative, driven by the needs of Aboriginal women, and steered by community-based Aboriginal health organizations. Project aims: • Assess whether a cultural, strength based screening process increases engagement of Aboriginal women • Determine whether a screening shawl enhances comfort and culturally safety • Encourage breast screening services to develop culturally safe screening practices • Develop a flexible model that can be easily adapted by other Aboriginal health services to reproduce the shawl, in recognition of the diversity of Aboriginal communities Methods: This project adopted the following strategies: • A project steering group was established • The shawl will be trialled via a group booking at one BSV clinic • Before the group booking, BSV clinic staff will attend culturally safety training • On the trial day, women will attend an information session at VAHS about breast screening and receive their shawl, travel to the BSV clinic together for screening, and return to VAHS to discuss their experiences Results: The trial will be fully evaluated in 2018 to determine whether project aims were achieved. Conclusion: Key learnings to date are: • Breast screening interventions for Aboriginal women must be community-led to ensure they are culturally appropriate, safe and acceptable • Aboriginal women face a number of barriers to breast screening at a system, service and individual level • Health services play a critical role in adopting culturally safe screening practices • Developing a flexible model that can be easily adapted by other Aboriginal health services is critical in ensuring the sustainability and acceptability of the shawl.

Abstract
Background: BreastScreen Victoria (BSV) provides free breast screening to women aged 40+; targeting women aged 50-74. The program reduces breast cancer-related deaths by up to 28%. BSV aims to ensure equitable participation by all women in the target population. However, women from Arabic and Italian speaking backgrounds have lower breast screening participation compared with English-speaking women. A needs analysis involving consultation with Arabic and Italian speaking women found that invitation letters and calls are important enablers to breast screening, however language is a barrier. Women suggested sending reminder letters and making outbound reminder calls in their language. Aim: The aim of this study was to determine whether, and to what extent, reminder letters and phone calls in language resulted in increased screening rates in Arabic and Italian women. Methods: Two randomized control trials ran in 2017. TRIAL 1: Women due for a routine breast screen who speak Italian or Arabic at home were randomized into one of two trial arms: women in the intervention arm received a reminder letter in language (with the English version enclosed also), and women in the control arm received a reminder letter in English only. 1032 women were included in the study; comprising 322 Arabic and 710 Italian women. TRIAL 2: Lapsed women (had not had a breast screen within 27 months) who speak Italian or Arabic at home were randomized into one of two trial arms: women in the intervention arm received an outbound call in language inviting them to book an appointment; women in the control arm did not receive a call. 219 lapsed screeners were included; comprising 93 Arabic and 126 Italian women Results: TRIAL 1: • Women in the intervention arm more frequently booked (61.2%) compared with the control group (59.8%). However, this difference was not statistically significant. • For Italian women, 64.5% in the intervention group and 66.2% in the control group booked a screening appointment within 30 days of the mail out. Among Arabic women, the rates were 53.1% and 47.5% respectively. TRIAL 2: • Women in the intervention group were 10.7 times more likely to make a booking (42.9%) compared with the control group (4%). The effect was larger for Arabic than for Italian women. Conclusion: Sending reminder letters to Italian and Arabic women in their own language did not result in a statistically significant increase in bookings. Making reminder phone calls to Italian and Arabic women in their own language did result in a large, statistically significant increase in bookings and attendance.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: We evaluated the impact of structured surveillance using bioimpedance spectroscopy (BIS) to prevent clinical BCRL in a group of high-risk (axillary lymph node dissection) patients.
Methods: From April 2010 through November 2016, 93 patients who were treated with axillary lymph node dissection (ALND) were prospectively monitored with BIS using L-Dex (Impedimed). Patients received a pre-operative baseline L-Dex measurement followed by post-operative assessments at regular intervals. An elevated L-Dex score was defined as an increase of ≥10 points above baseline (considered subclinical BCRL). Intervention consisted of applying an over the counter (OTC) sleeve for 4 weeks followed by re-evaluation. The need for complete decongestive physiotherapy (CDP) represented a surrogate for the development of clinically significant, chronic BCRL.
Results: Median follow-up was 24 months (range: 0.3-206.4 months). The median number of nodes removed was 19 (range: 5-41) and the median number of positive nodes was 3. Median age was 53 years old. Eighty five percent of patients underwent mastectomy and the remainder breast conserving therapy. 55% of patients received taxane based chemotherapy, 24% received some form of axillary RT (15% high tangents and 9% comprehensive regional nodal RT) and 74% had an elevated body mass index (BMI, > 25). Overall, 75% of these patients had at least one additional high-risk feature, 48% had at least two, and 6% had 3 (either taxane chemotherapy, axillary RT or elevated BMI). Thirty-three patients (35.4%) developed an elevated L-Dex score at some point during follow up. Overall, 10 patients (11%) required CDP at any point after treatment.
Conclusions: The results of this analysis support previously published data on the efficacy of prospective BCRL surveillance and early intervention using BIS. Of the 93 high-risk patients prospectively followed and managed in this structured BCRL protocol, 11% required CDP. These results compare favorably to all contemporary studies reporting BCRL rates in high-risk patients.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION In 2008, the UK National Osteoporosis Guideline Group (NOGG) produced a guideline on the prevention and treatment of osteoporosis, with an update in 2013. This paper presents a major update of the guideline, the scope of which is to review the assessment and management of osteoporosis and the prevention of fragility fractures in postmenopausal women and men age 50 years or over. METHODS Where available, systematic reviews, meta-analyses and randomised controlled trials were used to provide the evidence base. Conclusions and recommendations were systematically graded according to the strength of the available evidence. RESULTS Review of the evidence and recommendations are provided for the diagnosis of osteoporosis, fracture-risk assessment, lifestyle measures and pharmacological interventions, duration and monitoring of bisphosphonate therapy, glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis, osteoporosis in men, postfracture care and intervention thresholds. CONCLUSION The guideline, which has received accreditation from the National Institute of Health and Care Excellence (NICE), provides a comprehensive overview of the assessment and management of osteoporosis for all healthcare professionals who are involved in its management.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Delirium is one of the most common complications following hip fracture surgery in older people. This study identified pre- and peri-operative factors associated with the development of post-operative delirium following hip fracture surgery. METHODS Published and unpublished literature were searched to identify all evidence reporting variables on patient characteristics, on-admission, intra-operative and post-operative management assessing incident delirium in older people following hip fracture surgery. Pooled odds ratio (OR) and mean difference of those who experienced delirium compared to those who did not were calculated for each variable. Evidence was assessed using the Downs and Black appraisal tool and interpreted using the GRADE approach. RESULTS A total of 6704 people (2090 people with post-operative delirium) from 32 studies were analysed. There was moderate evidence of nearly a two-times greater probability of post-operative delirium for those aged 80 years and over (OR: 1.77; 95% CI: 1.09, 2.87), whether patients lived in a care institution pre-admission (OR: 2.65; 95% CI: 1.79, 3.92), and a six-times greater probability of developing post-operative delirium with a pre-admission diagnosis of dementia (OR: 6.07, 95% CI: 4.84, 7.62). There was no association with intra-operative variables and probability of delirium. CONCLUSION Clinicians treating people with a hip fracture should be vigilant towards post-operative delirium if their patients are older, have pre-existing cognitive impairment and poorer overall general health. This is also the case for those who experience post-operative complications such as pneumonia or a urinary tract infection. Copyright © 2017 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
