Abstract
BACKGROUND There is a need for diagnostic tests for screening, triaging and staging of epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC). Glycoproteomics of blood samples has shown promise for biomarker discovery. METHODS We applied glycoproteomics to serum of people with EOC or benign pelvic masses and healthy controls. A total of 653 analytes were quantified and assessed in multivariable models, which were tested in an independent cohort. Additionally, we analyzed glycosylation patterns in serum markers and in tissues. RESULTS We identified a biomarker panel that distinguished benign lesions from EOC with sensitivity and specificity of 83.5% and 90.1% in the training set, and of 86.7 and 86.7% in the test set, respectively. ROC analysis demonstrated strong performance across a range of cutoffs. Fucosylated multi-antennary glycopeptide markers were higher in late-stage than in early-stage EOC. A comparable pattern was found in late-stage EOC tissues. CONCLUSIONS Blood glycopeptide biomarkers have the potential to distinguish benign from malignant pelvic masses, and early- from late-stage EOC. Glycosylation of circulating and tumor tissue proteins may be related. This study supports the hypothesis that blood glycoproteomic profiling can be used for EOC diagnosis and staging and it warrants further clinical evaluation.

Abstract
The introduction of a higher arene unit as a structural motif is unprecedented in calixphyrin chemistry. Herein, the syntheses, spectral and structural characterization of heretofore anonymous terphenylene unit (o-p-o) incorporated calixphyrin with fused sp2 meso carbons is reported. The explicitly tailored macrocyclic core is utilized to stabilize the Cu(II) metal ion. The molecular structures of the calixbenziphyrin and Cu(II) complex are unambiguously confirmed by single-crystal X-ray analysis. Moreover, theoretical supports uphold experimental conclusions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE CTP is increasingly used to assess eligibility for endovascular therapy (EVT) in patients with large vessel occlusions (LVO). There remain variability and inconsistencies between software packages for estimation of ischemic core. We aimed to use heterogenous data from four stroke centers to perform a comparative analysis for CTP-estimated ischemic core between RAPID (iSchemaView) and Olea (Olea Medical). METHODS In this retrospective multicenter study, patients with anterior circulation LVO who underwent pretreatment CTP, successful EVT (defined TICI ≥ 2b), and follow-up MRI included. Automated CTP analysis was performed using Olea platform [rCBF < 25% and differential time-to-peak (dTTP)>5s] and RAPID (rCBF < 30%). The CTP estimated core volumes were compared against the final infarct volume (FIV) on post treatment MRI-DWI. RESULTS A total of 151 patients included. The CTP-estimated ischemic core volumes (mean ± SD) were 18.7 ± 18.9 mL on Olea and 10.5 ± 17.9 mL on RAPID significantly different (p < 0.01). The correlation between CTP estimated core and MRI final infarct volume was r = 0.38, p < 0.01 for RAPID and r = 0.39, p < 0.01 for Olea. Both software platforms demonstrated a strong correlation with each other (r = 0.864, p < 0.001). Both software overestimated the ischemic core volume above 70 mL in 4 patients (2.6%). CONCLUSIONS Substantial variation between Olea and RAPID CTP-estimated core volumes exists, though rates of overcalling of large core were low and identical. Both showed comparable core volume correlation to MRI infarct volume.

Abstract
Pyriporphyrinoids have recently attracted a significant proliferation of attention due to their versatile characters, which stem from structural motifs in which the pyridine moiety is involved. The evolution of pyriporphyrin chemistry revealed the subtle modifications of the macrocyclic core that tweak the electronic structure as compared to the parental macrocycle. The amendment of π-electronic organization inside the core manifests exceptional photophysical and coordination properties that cover a vast range of seemingly contradictory fields. In fundamental chemistry, the pyridine unit acts as a modulator of π-conjugated porphyrinoid systems, resulting in aromaticity swapping. From the applied chemistry perspective, these macrocycles are primarily utilized as (i) sensors, (ii) NIR absorbing photoacoustic dyes, (iii) electrochemical catalysts, (iv) singlet biradicaloid generation and (v) contributors to generate metal complexes with intriguing binding modes. Surprisingly, despite their prominence, pyriporphyrinoids are inadequately investigated, while pyridine unit-embedded calixphyrin, calixpyridinopyrrole and calixpyridine are barely reported. This review article illustrates the controlled formation of specific porphyrinic scaffolds with pyridine unit(s) and diverse functionalized heterocyclic and/or carbocyclic building block(s), and demonstrates a substantial influence on the macrocyclic properties.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Suicide is a leading cause of death among adolescents. However, there are no clinical tools to detect proximal risk for suicide. METHOD Participants included 13- to 18-year-old adolescents (N = 103) reporting a current depressive, anxiety, and/or substance use disorder who owned a smartphone; 62% reported current suicidal ideation, with 25% indicating a past-year attempt. At baseline, participants were administered clinical interviews to assess lifetime disorders and suicidal thoughts and behaviors (STBs). Self-reports assessing symptoms and suicide risk factors also were obtained. In addition, the Effortless Assessment of Risk States (EARS) app was installed on adolescent smartphones to acquire daily mood and weekly suicidal ideation severity during the 6-month follow-up period. Adolescents completed STB and psychiatric service use interviews at the 1-, 3-, and 6-month follow-up assessments. RESULTS K-means clustering based on aggregates of weekly suicidal ideation scores resulted in a 3-group solution reflecting high-risk (n = 26), medium-risk (n = 47), and low-risk (n = 30) groups. Of the high-risk group, 58% reported suicidal events (ie, suicide attempts, psychiatric hospitalizations, emergency department visits, ideation severity requiring an intervention) during the 6-month follow-up period. For participants in the high-risk and medium-risk groups (n = 73), mood disturbances in the preceding 7 days predicted clinically significant ideation, with a 1-SD decrease in mood doubling participants' likelihood of reporting clinically significant ideation on a given week. CONCLUSION Intensive longitudinal assessment through use of personal smartphones offers a feasible method to assess variability in adolescents' emotional experiences and suicide risk. Translating these tools into clinical practice may help to reduce the needless loss of life among adolescents.

Abstract
Stroke-like migraine attacks after radiation therapy (SMART) syndrome is a delayed complication of cranial irradiation, with subacute onset of stroke-like symptoms including seizures, visual disturbance, speech impairment, unilateral hemianopsia, facial droop, and aphasia, often associated with migraine-type headache. The diagnostic criteria were initially proposed in 2006. However, the diagnosis of SMART syndrome is challenging because clinical symptoms and imaging features of SMART syndrome are indeterminate and overlap with tumor recurrence and other neurologic diseases, which may result in inappropriate clinical management and unnecessary invasive diagnostic procedures. Recently, various imaging features and treatment recommendations for SMART syndrome have been reported. Radiologists and clinicians should be familiar with updates on clinical and imaging features of this delayed radiation complication because recognition of this entity can facilitate proper clinical work-up and management. This review provides current updates and a comprehensive overview of the clinical and imaging features of SMART syndrome.

Abstract
We provide data on daily social contact intensity of clusters of people at different types of Points of Interest (POI) by zip code in Florida and California. This data is obtained by aggregating fine-scaled details of interactions of people at the spatial resolution of 10 m, which is then normalized as a social contact index. We also provide the distribution of cluster sizes and average time spent in a cluster by POI type. This data will help researchers perform fine-scaled, privacy-preserving analysis of human interaction patterns to understand the drivers of the COVID-19 epidemic spread and mitigation. Current mobility datasets either provide coarse-level metrics of social distancing, such as radius of gyration at the county or province level, or traffic at a finer scale, neither of which is a direct measure of contacts between people. We use anonymized, de-identified, and privacy-enhanced location-based services (LBS) data from opted-in cell phone apps, suitably reweighted to correct for geographic heterogeneities, and identify clusters of people at non-sensitive public areas to estimate fine-scaled contacts.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Given low base rates of suicidal thoughts and behaviors (STBs) in national samples of adolescents, clarifying the sociodemographic and clinical correlates among psychiatric inpatients may afford insights into potential risk factors that predict STBs onset. METHOD Adolescents (N = 970; ages 12-19 years) admitted for acute, psychiatric inpatient care completed baseline clinical interviews and self-report measures assessing demographics and early life adversity. Lifetime and 12-month STBs prevalence were obtained, allowing for the estimate of STBs persistence (i.e., rates of those with both current and past STBs) and transition rates (i.e., proportion of ideators that transition to plans or attempts). Univariate and multivariate logistic regression tested sociodemographic and clinical correlates of STBs. RESULTS Age-of-onset for STBs occurred in early adolescence. Most patients reported suicide ideation with nearly half of patients making a plan and one-third a suicide attempt. Although relatively modest, the strongest correlates of lifetime attempts were depressive disorders, physical abuse, and non-suicidal self-injury. Knowing a peer that had attempted suicide also increased the likelihood of a suicide attempt, especially among attempters who transitioned from ideation to planned attempts. CONCLUSION STBs are highly prevalent among adolescents admitted for acute psychiatric inpatient treatment. The modest effects suggest that correlates, particularly those related to suicide attempts, are widely distributed. As a history of physical abuse and knowing a peer with a suicide attempt history are related to transitioning from ideation to action, these may be critical factors to target in the deployment of future suicide prevention and treatment programs. HIGHLIGHTSOne-third of adolescent inpatients report a lifetime history of suicide attempts.Approximately 65% of adolescent inpatients with a lifetime plan attempt suicide.Knowing peers who attempt suicide may facilitate the transition from ideation to action.

Abstract
Rhodium complexes of biphenylcorrole are reported, and the molecular structures of the complexes are unambiguously confirmed by single-crystal X-ray analysis. The adj-CCNN core of the dicarbacorrole efficiently stabilizes a rhodium metal ion in its two different oxidation states. It is pertinent to point out that the Rh(I) metal complex attains square-planar geometry while organo-Rh(III) forms an octahedral complex. Furthermore, density functional theory studies corroborate the experimental findings.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The skull base osteomyelitis sometimes can be difficult to distinguish from nasopharyngeal cancer. This study aimed to investigate the differences between skull base osteomyelitis and nasopharyngeal cancer using dynamic contrast-enhanced MR imaging and normalized ADC values. MATERIALS AND METHODS This study included 8 and 12 patients with skull base osteomyelitis and nasopharyngeal cancer, respectively, who underwent dynamic contrast-enhanced MR imaging and DWI before primary treatment. Quantitative dynamic contrast-enhanced MR imaging parameters and ADC values of the ROIs were analyzed. Normalized ADC parameters were calculated by dividing the ROIs of the lesion by that of the spinal cord. RESULTS The rate transfer constant between extravascular extracellular space and blood plasma per minute (Kep) was significantly lower in patients with skull base osteomyelitis than in those with nasopharyngeal cancer (median, 0.43 versus 0.57; P = .04). The optimal cutoff value of Kep was 0.48 (area under the curve, 0.78; 95% CI, 0.55-1). The normalized mean ADC was significantly higher in patients with skull base osteomyelitis than in those with nasopharyngeal cancer (median, 1.90 versus 0.87; P < .001). The cutoff value of normalized mean ADC was 1.55 (area under the curve, 0.96; 95% CI, 0.87-1). The area under the curve of the combination of dynamic contrast-enhanced MR imaging parameters (Kep and extravascular extracellular space volume per unit tissue volume) was 0.89 (95% CI, 0.73-1), and the area under the curve of the combination of dynamic contrast-enhanced MR imaging parameters and normalized mean ADC value was 0.98 (95% CI, 0.93-1). CONCLUSIONS Quantitative dynamic contrast-enhanced MR imaging parameters and normalized ADC values may be useful in differentiating skull base osteomyelitis and nasopharyngeal cancer. The combination of dynamic contrast-enhanced MR imaging parameters and normalized ADC values outperformed each measure in isolation.

Abstract
PURPOSE To compare the sealing ability and penetration of a bioactive material used as pit and fissure sealant to those of glass ionomer sealant. METHODS This was an in vitro experimental study conducted on 20 permanent teeth. For Group I of ten teeth, ACTIVA BioACTIVE-Base/Liner was applied as a sealant on pits and fissures, and the remaining ten teeth of Group II were sealed using glass ionomer cement. After thermocycling, the apex of the teeth was sealed using composite resin and they were immersed in 1% methylene blue solution, buffered at pH 7 for 24 h. Longitudinal sections were obtained from each tooth for evaluating the sealing ability and penetration, using a binocular light microscope at 4 × magnification. The obtained data were subjected to analysis using the Chi-square test and independent t test. RESULTS The comparison of the sealing ability and sealant penetration, between the two groups, showed statistically no significant difference (p = 0.104 and p = 1.0, respectively). CONCLUSION Bioactive material as a pit and fissure sealant, performed on par with glass ionomer sealant in terms of tested properties like sealing ability and penetration.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Differentiation of skull base tumors, including chondrosarcomas, chordomas, and metastases, on conventional imaging remains a challenge. We aimed to test the utility of DWI and dynamic contrast-enhanced MR imaging for skull base tumors. MATERIALS AND METHODS Fifty-nine patients with chondrosarcomas, chordomas, or metastases between January 2015 and October 2021 were included in this retrospective study. Pretreatment normalized mean ADC and dynamic contrast-enhanced MR imaging parameters were calculated. The Kruskal-Wallis H test for all tumor types and the Mann-Whitney U test for each pair of tumors were used. RESULTS Fifteen chondrosarcomas (9 men; median age, 62 years), 14 chordomas (6 men; median age, 47 years), and 30 metastases (11 men; median age, 61 years) were included in this study. Fractional plasma volume helped distinguish all 3 tumor types (P = .003, <.001, and <.001, respectively), whereas the normalized mean ADC was useful in distinguishing chondrosarcomas from chordomas and metastases (P < .001 and P < .001, respectively); fractional volume of extracellular space, in distinguishing chondrosarcomas from metastases (P = .02); and forward volume transfer constant, in distinguishing metastases from chondrosarcomas/chondroma (P = .002 and .002, respectively) using the Kruskal-Wallis H test. The diagnostic performances of fractional plasma volume for each pair of tumors showed areas under curve of 0.86-0.99 (95% CI, 0.70-1.0); the forward volume transfer constant differentiated metastases from chondrosarcomas/chordomas with areas under curve of 0.82 and 0.82 (95% CI, 0.67-0.98), respectively; and the normalized mean ADC distinguished chondrosarcomas from chordomas/metastases with areas under curve of 0.96 and 0.95 (95% CI, 0.88-1.0), respectively. CONCLUSIONS DWI and dynamic contrast-enhanced MR imaging sequences can be beneficial for differentiating the 3 common skull base tumors.

Abstract
Background During the covid-19 pandemic, the East Midlands South Deanery ran virtual peer-MRCS OSCE teaching. We analysed two surveys to understand the impact of peer-MRCS teaching on surgical trainees in this region. Method One survey was completed by peer-MRCS teachers who delivered sessions in 2020–2021. The second survey was completed by prospective MRCS OSCE candidates. Responses were anonymised. Results 7 / 8 peer teachers and 13/17 prospective learners completed the surveys. 6/7 peer-teachers had previous experience and prior teacher-training ranged from day courses to university degrees. All peer-teachers felt that peer-MRCS teaching enabled them to refresh their anatomy knowledge. 0/7 peer-teachers preferred to deliver practical-skills teaching. Passion for teaching was identified as a motivating factor by all peer teachers. This was further supported by the general consensus (5/7) for peer teachers preferring feedback that is focused on self-development rather than conveying appreciation. Majority (12/13) of peer learners also preferred to give feedback focused on teacher development and felt they were more likely (7/13) to provide accurate feedback for peer-sessions when compared to formal teaching sessions run by the deanery. Majority of participating prospective MRCS OSCE candidates (12/13) expressed an interest in peer-MRCS teaching. Low stress environment and cost effectiveness were the top reasons why prospective peer learners preferred virtual peer MRCS teaching. Conclusions Overall peer-MRCS teaching in this cohort suggests advantages to both peer-teachers and learners with the potential to improve teaching skills and clinical knowledge among surgical trainees.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Differentiating recurrence from benign posttreatment changes has clinical importance in the imaging follow-up of head and neck cancer. This study aimed to investigate the utility of normalized dynamic contrast-enhanced MR imaging and ADC for their differentiation. MATERIALS AND METHODS This study included 51 patients with a history of head and neck cancer who underwent follow-up dynamic contrast-enhanced MR imaging with DWI-ADC, of whom 25 had recurrences and 26 had benign posttreatment changes. Quantitative and semiquantitative dynamic contrast-enhanced MR imaging parameters and ADC of the ROI and reference region were analyzed. Normalized dynamic contrast-enhanced MR imaging parameters and normalized DWI-ADC parameters were calculated by dividing the ROI by the reference region. RESULTS Normalized plasma volume, volume transfer constant between extravascular extracellular space and blood plasma per minute (K trans), area under the curve, and wash-in were significantly higher in patients with recurrence than in those with benign posttreatment change (P = .003 to <.001). The normalized mean ADC was significantly lower in patients with recurrence than in those with benign posttreatment change (P < .001). The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of the combination of normalized dynamic contrast-enhanced MR imaging parameters with significance (normalized plasma volume, normalized extravascular extracellular space volume per unit tissue volume, normalized K trans, normalized area under the curve, and normalized wash-in) and normalized mean ADC was 0.97 (95% CI, 0.93-1). CONCLUSIONS Normalized dynamic contrast-enhanced MR imaging parameters, normalized mean ADC, and their combination were effective in differentiating recurrence and benign posttreatment changes in head and neck cancer.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Idiopathic granulomatous mastitis (IGM) often mimics breast cancer. Presentation includes pain, palpable mass, suppuration or suspicious imaging. Widely reported in Asia and the Middle East, IGM is diagnosed after excluding specific granulomatous mastitis (SGM). Aetiology remains unknown. Lactation, prolactinaemia, ethnicity, autoimmune disease and Corynebacteria are associated. Treatment is controversial and the prevalence rising. Surgery and non-operative treatments including antibiotics, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), steroids, methotrexate and observation have advocates. METHODS A retrospective chart review of 63 patients with IGM from 2008 to 2018 was undertaken focusing on birthplace, age, clinical presentation, wound cultures, imaging, treatments and outcomes. RESULTS Sixty-one of 63 patients were Hispanic; 53 were Mexican-born women aged 23-46. Clinical presentation included pain, painful mass, painless mass, suppuration and abnormal imaging. Some 31/61 ultrasound examinations and 17/33 mammograms were deemed Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System (BI-RADS) score 4 or 5. Management included antibiotics (43), incision and drainage (24), NSAIDs (29), steroids (8), lumpectomy (18) and observation (12). Some 12/20 patients with painless masses resolved with observation, 3 received NSAIDs, 2 received steroids and 3 underwent lumpectomies. Antibiotics resolved 8/43 cases, 5 needed incision and drainage, 26 received NSAIDs, 6 received steroids and 5 underwent lumpectomies. Nineteen patients had indolent disease or recurrence. CONCLUSIONS Excluding malignancy is critical, treatment challenging and recurrence common in IGM. A preponderance of patients were Mexican-born, similar to other reports from the USA. Over 50% of IGM cases had suspicious BI-RADS scores. Best management remains a challenge and ranges from observation to lumpectomy.

Abstract
e12545 Background: Breast cancer is the most common cancer among women worldwide.Traditional methods of cancer detection such as tissue biopsy are invasive, costly, time consuming and not amenable for repetition. As a result, minimally invasive liquid biopsies, especially blood-based biomarkers show potential value for breast cancer risk prediction and early detection. In this study, we investigated the use of serum glycoproteins circulating in blood to identify a panel of potential prognostic markers that may aid in predicting breast cancer in women. Methods: We applied a novel platform for characterizing blood glycoproteomic biomarkers, combining liquid-chromatography/mass spectrometry (LC-MS) with artificial intelligence/neural networks (AI-NN) to analyze serum samples from 279 breast cancer patients (median age 56 years, with stage 0-4 N’s: 1 / 83 / 114 / 56 / 25) and 102 healthy control samples (median age 52 years). A panel of 596 serum glycosylated and non-glycosylated peptides, representing 71 serum proteins, were analyzed. Age-adjusted differential expression analysis for 596 normalized biomarkers were performed to evaluate statistically significant differential abundances using an FDR q-value of 0.05 as a cutoff. Using the top differentially expressed markers as input, a LASSO penalized logistic regression model with 5-fold repeated cross validation was applied to identify the top biomarkers contributing to the separation between healthy controls and breast cancer patients. Results: We identified 243 out of 596 markers that were differentially expressed (FDR <<0.05) between breast cancer samples and healthy controls. Out of those, 11 markers were obtained as the top predictors in classifying breast cancer patients and healthy controls. The classification algorithm yielded an accuracy of 94% (95.9% sensitivity, 88.7% specificity) and an AUC of 0.983 on the training set. This classifier was validated on an independent test set with 30% of the subjects, yielding an accuracy of 93% (96.4% sensitivity, 83.9% specificity) and an AUC of 0.974. Test sensitivity was high across stages, at 96% / 90% / 95% / 90% in stages 1-4, respectively. Conclusions: Based on the results, we conclude that circulating glycoproteins in serum may be useful in screening applications in breast cancer, and strongly demonstrates the utility of glycoprotein profiles as a powerful non-invasive diagnostic tool.

Abstract
Depression recurrence is debilitating, and there is a pressing need to develop clinical tools that detect the reemergence of symptoms with the aim of bridging patients to treatment before recurrences. At baseline, remitted depressed adults (n = 22) and healthy controls (n = 24) were administered clinical interviews and completed self-report symptom measures. Then, smartphone apps were installed on personal smartphones to acquire geolocation data over 21 days and ecological momentary assessment of positive and negative affect during the initial 14-day period. Compared with healthy controls, remitted depressed adults exhibited reduced circadian routine (regularity of one's daily routine) and lower average daily distance traveled. Further, reduced distance traveled associated with greater daily negative affect after controlling for depression severity; however, this effect was not more pronounced among remitted adults. A least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression indicated that a linear combination of circadian routine, average distance traveled, and baseline depression severity classified remitted depressed individuals with 72% accuracy; outperforming models restricted to either geolocation or clinical measures alone. Mobile sensing approaches hold enormous promise to improve clinical care for depressive disorders. Although barriers remain, leveraging technological advancements related to real-time monitoring can improve treatment for depressed patients and potentially, reduce high rates of recurrence.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Free flap reconstruction in patients with head and neck cancer carries a risk of postoperative complications, and radiologic predictive factors have been limited. The aim of this study was to assess the factors that predict free flap reconstruction failure using CT and MR perfusion. MATERIALS AND METHODS This single-center prospective study included 24 patients (mean age, 62.7 [SD, 9.0] years; 16 men) who had free flap reconstruction from January 2016 to May 2018. CT perfusion and dynamic contrast-enhanced MR imaging with conventional CT and MR imaging were performed between 2 and 4 days after the free flap surgery, and the wound assessments within 14 days after the surgery were conducted by the surgical team. The parameters of CT perfusion and dynamic contrast-enhanced MR imaging with conventional imaging findings and patient demographics were compared between the patients with successful free flap reconstruction and those with wound failure as appropriate. P < .05 was considered significant. RESULTS There were 19 patients with successful free flap reconstruction and no wound complications (mean age, 63.9 [SD, 9.5] years; 14 men), while 5 patients had wound failure (mean age, 58.0 [SD, 5.7] years; 2 men). Blood flow, blood volume, MTT, and time maximum intensity projection (P = .007, .007, .015, and .004, respectively) in CT perfusion, and fractional plasma volume, volume transfer constant, peak enhancement, and time to maximum enhancement (P = .006, .039, .004, and .04, respectively) in dynamic contrast-enhanced MR imaging were significantly different between the 2 groups. CONCLUSIONS CT perfusion and dynamic contrast-enhanced MR imaging are both promising imaging techniques to predict wound complications after head and neck free flap reconstruction.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Prognostic factors of stroke-like migraine attacks after radiation therapy (SMART) syndrome have not been fully explored. This study aimed to assess clinical and imaging features to predict the clinical outcome of SMART syndrome. MATERIALS AND METHODS We retrospectively reviewed the clinical manifestations and imaging findings of 20 patients with SMART syndrome (median age, 48 years; 5 women) from January 2016 to January 2020 at 4 medical centers. Patient demographics and MR imaging features at the time of diagnosis were reviewed. This cohort was divided into 2 groups based on the degree of clinical improvement (completely versus incompletely recovered). The numeric and categoric variables were compared as appropriate. RESULTS There were statistically significant differences between the completely recovered group (n = 11; median age, 44 years; 2 women) and the incompletely recovered group (n = 9; median age, 55 years; 3 women) in age, months of follow-up, and the presence of steroid treatment at diagnosis (P = .028, .002, and .01, respectively). Regarding MR imaging features, there were statistically significant differences in the presence of linear subcortical WM susceptibility abnormality, restricted diffusion, and subcortical WM edematous changes in the acute SMART region (3/11 versus 8/9, P = .01; 0/11 versus 4/9, P = .026; and 2/11 versus 7/9, P = .022, respectively). Follow-up MRIs showed persistent susceptibility abnormality (11/11) and subcortical WM edematous changes (9/9), with resolution of restricted diffusion (4/4). CONCLUSIONS Age, use of steroid treatment at the diagnosis of SMART syndrome, and MR imaging findings of abnormal susceptibility signal, restricted diffusion, and subcortical WM change in the acute SMART region can be prognostic factors in SMART syndrome.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Previous studies reported that the ADC values of recurrent head and neck cancer lesions are lower than those of posttreatment changes, however, the utility of ADC to differentiate them has not been definitively summarized and established. PURPOSE Our aim was to evaluate the diagnostic benefit of ADC calculated from diffusion-weighted imaging in differentiating recurrent lesions from posttreatment changes in head and neck cancer. DATA SOURCES MEDLINE, Scopus, and EMBASE data bases were searched for studies. STUDY SELECTION The review identified 6 prospective studies with a total of 365 patients (402 lesions) who were eligible for the meta-analysis. DATA ANALYSIS Forest plots were used to assess the mean difference in ADC values. Heterogeneity among the studies was evaluated using the Cochrane Q test and the I2 statistic. DATA SYNTHESIS Among included studies, the overall mean of ADC values of recurrent lesions was 1.03 × 10-3mm2/s and that of the posttreatment changes was 1.51 × 10-3mm2/s. The ADC value of recurrence was significantly less than that of posttreatment changes in head and neck cancer (pooled mean difference: -0.45; 95% CI, -0.59-0.32, P < .0001) with heterogeneity among studies. The threshold of ADC values between recurrent lesions and posttreatment changes was suggested to be 1.10 × 10-3mm2/s. LIMITATIONS Given the heterogeneity of the data of the study, the conclusions should be interpreted with caution. CONCLUSIONS The ADC values in recurrent head and neck cancers are lower than those of posttreatment changes, and the threshold of ADC values between them was suggested.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The mean ADC value of the lower Gaussian curve (ADCL) derived from the bi-Gaussian curve-fitting histogram analysis has been reported as a predictive/prognostic imaging biomarker in patients with recurrent glioblastoma treated with bevacizumab; however, its systematic summary has been lacking. PURPOSE We applied a systematic review and meta-analysis to investigate the predictive/prognostic performance of ADCL in patients with recurrent glioblastoma treated with bevacizumab. DATA SOURCES We performed a literature search using PubMed, Scopus, and EMBASE. STUDY SELECTION A total of 1344 abstracts were screened, of which 83 articles were considered potentially relevant. Data were finally extracted from 6 studies including 578 patients. DATA ANALYSIS Forest plots were generated to illustrate the hazard ratios of overall survival and progression-free survival. The heterogeneity across the studies was assessed using the Cochrane Q test and I2 values. DATA SYNTHESIS The pooled hazard ratios for overall survival and progression-free survival in patients with an ADCL lower than the cutoff values were 1.89 (95% CI, 1.53-2.31) and 1.98 (95% CI, 1.54-2.55) with low heterogeneity among the studies. Subgroup analysis of the bevacizumab-free cohort showed a pooled hazard ratio for overall survival of 1.20 (95% CI, 1.08-1.34) with low heterogeneity. LIMITATIONS The conclusions are limited by the difference in the definition of recurrence among the included studies. CONCLUSIONS This systematic review with meta-analysis supports the prognostic value of ADCL in patients with recurrent glioblastoma treated with bevacizumab, with a low ADCL demonstrating decreased overall survival and progression-free survival. On the other hand, the predictive role of ADCL for bevacizumab treatment was not confirmed.

Abstract
Due to enthralling applications in various fields and augmenting fundamental wisdom, π-conjugated macrocycles in general and porphyrin systems in particular are constantly explored. Subtle modifications of porphyrin structure can amend the rudimentary properties. Pursuing innovative properties provides impetus to underpin arene or pyridine moiety embedded porphyrin derivatives. There have been several reviews related to arene incorporated carbaporphyrinoids; however, recent developments of porphyrin analogues by introducing higher analogues of arenes and pyridine units are not adequately inspected. This mini-review mainly focuses on biphenyl, bipyridine, terphenyl, and mixed arene pyridine embedded porphyrin analogues and their coordination chemistry.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Distinguishing schwannomas from paragangliomas in the head and neck and determining succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) mutation status in paragangliomas are clinically important. We aimed to assess the clinical usefulness of DWI and dynamic contrast-enhanced MR imaging in differentiating these 2 types of tumors, as well as the SDH mutation status of paragangliomas. MATERIALS AND METHODS This retrospective study from June 2016 to June 2020 included 42 patients with 15 schwannomas and 27 paragangliomas (10 SDH mutation-positive and 17 SDH mutation-negative). ADC values, dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI parameters, and tumor imaging characteristics were compared between the 2 tumors and between the mutation statuses of paragangliomas as appropriate. Multivariate stepwise logistic regression analysis was performed to identify significant differences in these parameters. RESULTS Fractional plasma volume (P ≤ .001), rate transfer constant (P = .038), time-to-maximum enhancement (P < .001), maximum signal-enhancement ratio (P < .001) and maximum concentration of contrast agent (P < .001), velocity of enhancement (P = .002), and tumor characteristics including the presence of flow voids (P = .001) and enhancement patterns (P = .027) showed significant differences between schwannomas and paragangliomas, though there was no significant difference in ADC values. In the multivariate logistic regression analysis, fractional plasma volume was identified as the most significant value for differentiation of the 2 tumor types (P = .014). ADC values were significantly higher in nonhereditary than in hereditary paragangliomas, while there was no difference in dynamic contrast-enhanced MR imaging parameters. CONCLUSIONS Dynamic contrast-enhanced MR imaging parameters show promise in differentiating head and neck schwannomas and paragangliomas, while DWI can be useful in detecting SDH mutation status in paragangliomas.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Head and neck paragangliomas have been reported to be associated with mutations of the succinate dehydrogenase enzyme family. The aim of this study was to assess whether radiologic features could differentiate between paragangliomas in the head and neck positive and negative for the succinate dehydrogenase mutation. MATERIALS AND METHODS This single-center retrospective review from January 2015 to January 2020 included 40 patients with 48 paragangliomas (30 tumors positive for succinate dehydrogenase mutation in 23 patients and 18 tumors negative for the succinate dehydrogenase mutation in 17 patients). ADC values and tumor characteristics on CT and MR imaging were evaluated by 2 radiologists. Differences between the 2 cohorts in the diagnostic performance of ADC and normalized ADC (ratio to ADC in the medulla oblongata) values were evaluated using the independent samples t test. P < .05 was considered significant. RESULTS ADCmean (1.07 [SD, 0.25]/1.04 [SD, 0.12] versus 1.31 [SD, 0.16]/1.30 [SD, 0.20]× 10-3 mm2/s by radiologists 1 and 2; P < .001), ADCmaximum (1.49 [SD, 0.27]/1.49 [SD, 0.20] versus 2.01 [SD, 0.16]/1.87 [SD, 0.20] × 10-3 mm2/s; P < .001), normalized ADCmean (1.40 [SD, 0.33]/1.37 [SD, 0.16] versus 1.73 [SD, 0.22]/1.74 [SD, 0.27]; P < .001), and normalized ADCmaximum (1.95 [SD, 0.37]/1.97 [SD, 0.27] versus 2.64 [SD, 0.22]/2.48 [SD, 0.28]; P < .001) were significantly lower in succinate dehydrogenase mutation-positive than mutation-negative tumors. ADCminimum, normalized ADCminimum, and tumor characteristics were not statistically significant. CONCLUSIONS ADC is a promising imaging biomarker that can help differentiate succinate dehydrogenase mutation-positive from mutation-negative paragangliomas in the head and neck.

Abstract
Airlines have introduced a back-to-front boarding process in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. It is motivated by the desire to reduce passengers' likelihood of passing close to seated passengers when they take their seats. However, our prior work on the risk of Ebola spread in aeroplanes suggested that the driving force for increased exposure to infection transmission risk is the clustering of passengers while waiting for others to stow their luggage and take their seats. In this work, we examine whether the new boarding processes lead to increased or decreased risk of infection spread. We also study the reasons behind the risk differences associated with different boarding processes. We accomplish this by simulating the new boarding processes using pedestrian dynamics and compare them against alternatives. Our results show that back-to-front boarding roughly doubles the infection exposure compared with random boarding. It also increases exposure by around 50% compared to a typical boarding process prior to the outbreak of COVID-19. While keeping middle seats empty yields a substantial reduction in exposure, our results show that the different boarding processes have similar relative strengths in this case as with middle seats occupied. We show that the increased exposure arises from the proximity between passengers moving in the aisle and while seated. Such exposure can be reduced significantly by prohibiting the use of overhead bins to stow luggage. Our results suggest that the new boarding procedures increase the risk of exposure to COVID-19 compared with prior ones and are substantially worse than a random boarding process.

Abstract
One dimensional semiconductor systems with strong spin-orbit interaction are both of fundamental interest and have potential applications to topological quantum computing. Applying a magnetic field can open a spin gap, a pre-requisite for Majorana zero modes. The spin gap is predicted to manifest as a field dependent dip on the first 1D conductance plateau. However, disorder and interaction effects make identifying spin gap signatures challenging. Here we study experimentally and numerically the 1D channel in a series of low disorder p-type GaAs quantum point contacts, where spin-orbit and hole-hole interactions are strong. We demonstrate an alternative signature for probing spin gaps, which is insensitive to disorder, based on the linear and non-linear response to the orientation of the applied magnetic field, and extract a spin-orbit gap ΔE ≈ 500 μeV. This approach could enable one-dimensional hole systems to be developed as a scalable and reproducible platform for topological quantum applications. In one-dimensional systems, the combination of a strong spin-orbit interaction and an applied magnetic field can give rise to a spin-gap, however experimental identification is difficult. Here, the authors present new signatures for the spin-gap, and verify these experimentally in hole QPCs.

Abstract
An unprecedented formation of a meso-fused β-β' carbaporphyrin dimer and its monomer with a keto group was described. These analogues were synthesized from carbatriphyrin(3.1.1.) by a metal assisted strategy using PtCl2 salt in a single step without any prefunctionalized precursors. Upon dimerization, the monomeric ligand with a dianionic core is transformed into a dimeric structure with unique trianionic cores.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The use of immunohistochemistry to quantify neural markers in various brain regions is a staple of neuroscience research. Numerous programs exist to automate quantification, but manual assignment of regions of interest (ROIs) within individual brain sections remains time consuming and can introduce interobserver variability. NEW METHOD We have developed a novel open source FIJI-based immunohistochemical data analysis pipeline, Atlas-Based Analysis (ABA). ABA uses landmark-based image warping to adjust the experimental image to closely align with a published rat brain atlas. c-Fos positive cells are then quantified within predetermined ROI coordinates derived from the brain atlas. Image warping adjusts for natural variation in brain sections to ensure reliable alignment of ROIs for data analysis. This pipeline can be adapted for new atlases, landmarks, ROIs, and quantification measurements. RESULTS ABA permits rapid quantification of immunoreactivity in multiple ROIs and produces results with high levels of interobserver consistency. COMPARISON WITH EXISTING METHODS Compared to manual ROI designation, ABA reduces total analysis time by ∼70%. With correct use of landmarks for image warping, ABA produces similar results to manually drawn ROIs, results in no interobserver variability, and maintains c-Fos+ pixel dimensions. CONCLUSIONS ABA reduces time to obtain reliable results when performing automated immunoreactivity quantification and allows multiple users to analyze data without compromising the reliability of data obtained.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The clinical benefit of pre-hematopoietic cell transplantation sinus CT screening remains uncertain, while the risks of CT radiation and anesthesia are increasingly evident. We sought to re-assess the impact of screening sinus CT on pretransplantation patient management and prediction of posttransplantation invasive fungal rhinosinusitis. MATERIALS AND METHODS Pretransplantation noncontrast screening sinus CTs for 100 consecutive patients (mean age, 11.9 ± 5.5 years) were graded for mucosal thickening (Lund-Mackay score) and for signs of noninvasive or invasive fungal rhinosinusitis (sinus calcification, hyperattenuation, bone destruction, extrasinus inflammation, and nasal mucosal ulceration). Posttransplantation sinus CTs performed for sinus-related symptoms were similarly graded. Associations of Lund-Mackay scores, clinical assessments, changes in pretransplantation clinical management (additional antibiotic or fungal therapy, sinonasal surgery, delayed transplantation), and subsequent development of sinus-related symptoms or invasive fungal rhinosinusitis were tested (exact Wilcoxon rank sums, Fisher exact test, significance P < .05). RESULTS Mean pretransplantation screening Lund-Mackay scores (n = 100) were greater in patients with clinical symptoms (8.07 ± 6.00 versus 2.48 ± 3.51, P < .001) but were not associated with pretransplantation management changes and did not predict posttransplantation sinus symptoms (n = 21, P = .47) or invasive fungal rhinosinusitis symptoms (n = 2, P = .59). CONCLUSIONS Pre-hematopoietic cell transplantation sinus CT does not meaningfully contribute to pretransplantation patient management or prediction of posttransplantation sinus disease, including invasive fungal rhinosinusitis, in children. The risks associated with CT radiation and possible anesthesia are not warranted in this setting.
