Abstract
BACKGROUND Detection of SARS-CoV-2 antibodies is essential in establishing the parameters of an individual's immune response to COVID-19, from both natural infection and vaccination. Despite this, there is currently limited clinical guidance or recommendations for serological methods for their measurement. Here, we evaluate and compare four Luminex-based assays for the multiplex detection of IgG SARS-CoV-2 antibodies. METHODS The four assays tested were Magnetic Luminex Assay, MULTICOV-AB Assay, Luminex xMAP SARS-CoV-2 Multi-Antigen IgG Assay and LABScreen COVID Plus Assay. Each assay's ability to detect antibodies to SARS-CoV-2 Spike (S), Nucleocapsid (N) and Spike-Receptor Binding Domain (RBD) was evaluated using 50 test samples (25 positive, 25 negative), previously tested by a widely used ELISA technique. RESULTS The MULTICOV-AB Assay had the highest clinical performance detecting antibodies to S trimer and RBD in 100% (n = 25) of known positive samples. Both the Magnetic Luminex Assay and LABScreen COVID Plus Assay showed significant diagnostic accuracy with sensitivities of 90% and 88% respectively. The Luminex xMAP SARS-CoV-2 Multi-Antigen IgG Assay demonstrated limited detection of antibodies to the S antigen resulting in a sensitivity of 68%. CONCLUSION Luminex-based assays provide a suitable serological method for multiplex detection of SARS-CoV-2 specific antibodies, with each assay able to detect antibodies to a minimum of 3 different SARS-CoV-2 antigens. Assay comparison identified there is moderate performance variability between manufacturers and further inter-assay variation of antibodies detected to different SARS-CoV-2 antigens.

Abstract
Abstract
Aim
Human infections from highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) H5N1 are associated with significant morbidity and mortality internationally. This study aimed to use routinely available data to examine key strategies to prevent H5N1 transmission to humans during outbreaks in poultry in residents in Cavan, Louth, Meath and Monaghan.
Study design
Cross-sectional based study.
Methods
Data were obtained from Health Protection Team (HPT) in the Department of Public Health (DPH), HSE North-East and Department of Agriculture, Food, and the Marine (DAFM). Data entry and analyses were conducted using Microsoft Excel 2016.
Results
The public health response focussed on contact tracing, monitoring, and follow-up for household, farm-workers, and DAFM staff exposed on the affected farms. A total of 157 contact episodes were identified. Contacts received advice about active monitoring from their last exposure. A total of 111 (80%) were recommended chemoprophylaxis for exposure to HPAI H5N1. During the active monitoring period, two contacts developed acute respiratory symptoms, and parainfluenza 3 and rhino/enterovirus were identified in these individuals respectively.
Conclusions
The findings of this study, using routinely gathered data, highlighted that collaboration between public health and DAFM at regional and national level was key to rapid response to these outbreaks of HPAI in domesticated poultry. In addition, the public health response was successful in preventing H5N1 transmission from domesticated birds to humans.
Key messages
• HPAI H5N1 virus infections transmissions from poultry to humans is low.
• Effective public health measures are crucial to further mitigate the risks to an absolute minimum.

Abstract
Abstract
Study question
Does the passive sperm separation device, Zymot, select sperm with lower DNA fragmentation levels compared to Density Gradient Centrifugation (DGC)?
Summary answer
The sperm separation device Zymot did not select sperm with lower DNA fragmentation levels compared to sperm selected by DGC or the neat sample.
What is known already
Previous studies have shown that sperm with high DNA fragmentation levels result in lower fertilisation rates, impaired embryo development, lower pregnancy rates and increases the risk of miscarriage. Currently, prior to fertility treatment, the method of choice for sperm selection is using DGC, which involves the centrifugation of sperm. Therefore, there is a clinical need for a sperm selection method that avoids centrifugation, while mimicking the natural process of sperm selection in the female reproductive tract and selects sperm with intact DNA.
Study design, size, duration
This blinded controlled study included 29 patients from which semen samples were obtained between May 2021- January 2022 at ReproMed fertility clinic (Dublin, Ireland). Ejaculates were split and processed using either DGC, passive separation device (Zymot; 850 uL) or unprocessed (neat; control) and assessed for sperm quality in terms of motility (progressive, non-progressive and immotile), morphology and DNA fragmentation (assessed using the COMET assay). Two hundred sperm were assessed for each analysis.
Participants/materials, setting, methods
Motility and morphology were assessed using microscopy techniques as per WHO guidelines. DNA fragmentation was assessed using the COMET assay and each sample was given an Average COMET score (ACS), Low COMET score (LCS) and High COMET score (HCS). All data were checked for normality of distribution following which they were analysed using analysis of variance (ANOVA) with Bonferroni post-hoc tests. All values presented are mean ± standard error of the mean.
Main results and the role of chance
Sperm sorted by the Zymot device had higher progressive motility (78.7 + 3.42%) than both the neat (53.3 + 3.40%) and DGC (51.8 + 3.74%%) samples (P < 0.001). Sperm selected by DGC had a greater percentage of sperm with non-progressive motility (16.0 + 2.02%) compared to the neat sample (8.6 + 1.11%) and the Zymot device (9.9 + 1.60%). The overall percentage of normal morphology in the neat sample was 4.3 + 0.16% and there was no effect of sperm selection method on the percentage of sperm with normal morphology (P > 0.05). The ACS in the neat sample was 32.5 + 1.48% and neither DGC (28.2 + 1.45%) or Zymot (29.1 + 1.50%) improved this (P > 0.05). In line with this, neither LCS nor HCS differed between the treatments (P > 0.05).
Limitations, reasons for caution
A higher number of patient samples are needed to validate the efficacy of the Zymot sperm separation device on DNA fragmentation levels. Also, targeting patients with higher DNA fragmentation in the neat sample may yield greater benefits.
Wider implications of the findings
The results of this study indicate that the passive sperm selection device, Zymot, selects more motile sperm but does not select sperm with intact DNA. There is a need for a non-cell destructive method to select sperm with intact DNA to improve the outcomes for couples undergoing fertility treatment.

Abstract
UNLABELLED We assessed two electronic search tools that screen medical records for documented fractures. Both programs reliably identified patients with any fracture but missed individuals with minimal trauma fracture to different degrees. A hybrid tool combining the methodology of both tools is likely to improve the identification of those with osteoporosis. PURPOSE Most patients who suffer a minimal trauma fracture remain undiagnosed, placing them at high risk of refracture. Case finding can be improved by electronic search tools that screen medical records for documented fractures. Here, we assessed the efficacy of two new programs, AES and XRAIT, in identifying patients with minimal trauma fracture. METHODS Each tool was applied to search the electronic medical record and/or radiology reports at two tertiary hospitals in Sydney, Australia, from 1 July to 31 December 2018. Samples of the extracted reports were then manually reviewed to determine the sensitivity of each program in detecting minimal trauma fractures. RESULTS At the two centers, AES detected 872 and 1364 cases, whereas XRAIT identified 1414 and 2180 patients with fractures, respectively. The true positive rate for "any fracture" was similar for both instruments (77-88%). However, the ability to detect "minimal trauma fractures" differed between programs and centers (53-75% accuracy), with each tool identifying separate subsets of patients. Concordance between both tools was less than half of the combined total number of minimal trauma fractures (43-45%). Considering the total number of minimal trauma fractures detected by both tools combined, AES correctly identified 52-55% of cases while XRAIT identified 88-93% of cases. CONCLUSION Both programs reliably identified patients with any fracture but missed individuals with minimal trauma fracture to different degrees. Hybrid tools combining the methodology of XRAIT and AES are likely to improve the identification of patients who require investigation and treatment for osteoporosis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate the prevalence and risk factors for overweight status in dogs under primary veterinary care in the UK. MATERIALS AND METHODS A retrospective study design was used to estimate the 1-year (2016) period prevalence of overweight status. The clinical records were randomly ordered and manually validated for dogs with overweight status during 2016. Univariable and multivariable logistic regression modelling were used to evaluate associations between risk factors (breed, brachycephalic status, adult bodyweight, bodyweight relative to breed-sex mean, age, sex-neuter and insurance) and overweight status. RESULTS There were 1580 of 22,333 dogs identified as overweight during 2016. The estimated 1-year period prevalence for overweight status recorded in dogs under veterinary care was 7.1% (95% confidence interval 6.7-7.4). After accounting for confounding factors, eight breeds showed increased odds of overweight status compared with crossbred dogs. The breeds with the highest odds included the Pug (OR 3.12, 95% confidence interval 2.31 to 4.20), Beagle (OR 2.67, 1.75 to 4.08), Golden Retriever (OR 2.58, 1.79 to 3.74) and English Springer Spaniel (OR 1.98, 1.31 to 2.98). Being neutered, middle-aged and insured were additionally associated with overweight status. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE Targeted overweight prevention strategies should be prioritised for predisposed breeds, such as Pugs and Beagles. The findings additionally raise questions about further preventative efforts following neutering. The prevalence estimate suggests veterinary professionals are underreporting overweight status and therefore could be missing key welfare opportunities.

Abstract
Presentation A 28 year old female presented to the emergency department with a one week history of headache, vomiting and diaphoresis. Creatinine on admission was 492 and urinalysis revealed blood and protein. This was 5 months after a second infusion of Alemtuzumab, for treatment of highly active relapsing remitting multiple sclerosis. Diagnosis Anti-glomerular basement membrane disease was diagnosed after a vasculitic screen was sent for suspected glomerulonephritis. Treatment Unfortunately despite early diagnosis and immunosuppressive treatment, the patient progressed to end stage kidney failure. Conclusion It is important to maintain a high index of suspicion and test for anti-GBM disease in patients receiving alemtuzumab who develop acute renal failure.

Abstract
Abstract
We describe a highly accurate and precise method for determination of total cholesterol in serum by isotope dilution/mass spectrometry. The method was developed for a Study Group of the Committee on Standards of the American Association for Clinical Chemistry, for use in establishing the accuracy of a candidate reference method for total cholesterol, and fulfills their criteria for a definitive method. Cholesterol-d7 is added to serum, with the weight ratio of cholesterol-d7 to total serum cholesterol kept near to 1:1. The esters are hydrolyzed and the cholesterol is separated and converted into the trimethylsilyl ether derivative for measurement by combined gas chromatography/mass spectrometry. The intensity ratio of the molecular ions at m/z 465 and 458 is measured for each sample and for two calibration mixtures, according to a prescribed bracketing protocol. A weight ratio for the sample is obtained by linear interpolation of the ion-intensity ratios, and the total cholesterol is then calculated. The method was applied four times over several weeks to each of five serum pools. Statistical analysis involving consideration of both replication error and variability between weeks gave a coefficient of variation for a single measurement of 0.36%. The absence of interferences in the method was demonstrated by measurements at several other masses.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Cardiotoxic therapy causes significant morbidity and mortality in patients (pts) treated for Hodgkin lymphoma (HL). Cardiovascular (CVS) risk calculators do not include cancer therapy despite epidemiological data demonstrating increased risk. We have assessed modifiable CVS risk factors and predicted risk of CVS disease in a cohort of HL survivors.
Hypothesis
Cardiovascular risk calculators will not identify high risk in young HL survivors.
Methods
Pts now aged ≤50 treated with doxorubicin and/or radiotherapy (RT) to cardiac tissue for HL >5 years ago were identified. Telephone review of CVS risk factors was offered to pts taking statins or already diagnosed with cerebrovascular or CVS disease. Remaining pts were offered clinical review to assess BMI, blood pressure, cholesterol and HbA1c. Carotid-radial pulse wave velocity (PWV) was measured if available. CVS risk was predicted using international risk calculators (European SCORE, QRISK3, Framingham).
Results
160 eligible pts were identified. Median age was 43 years (26–50) and 52% were female. Median time since treatment was 182 months (61–367). Pts received doxorubicin (n=150), with RT (n=97) or RT alone (n=10). Pts were excluded from study due to severe medical condition (n=8), recurrence (n=1), relocation (n=3) or death (n=1). Data were gathered at clinical review (n=70) or telephone review (n=26). Existing cardiovascular diagnoses included hypertension (n=5), transient ischaemic attack (n=2), valvular disease (n=3), heart failure (n=1), atrial fibrillation (n=2), complete heart block (n=1) and coronary artery disease (n=1).
At clinical review 51% pts had 3 or more modifiable risk factors with a median of 3 (0–5) per pt. Total cholesterol was >5.0 mmol/L in 58% of patients with a median of 5.2 mmol/L (3.2–8.6). Median systolic blood pressure was 125.5 mmHg (103–164). Median body mass index was 26.3 kg/m-2 (18.6–56.1) with 60% of patients classed as overweight or obese.Advice was offered to all smokers (9%), pts that drank alcohol above UK recommended levels (20%) or exercised below the recommended amount (60%). Risk calculators classified 1.4% (QRISK3) and 10% (Framingham) of pts at high risk of CVS disease and 0% (European SCORE) at high risk of CVS mortality. Pulse wave velocity measured in 34 pts was elevated (>8 m/s) in 76% of cases with a median 10.2 m/s (2.3–16.8).
Conclusions
Numerous modifiable CVS risk factors were identified in an HL survivor population known from epidemiological studies to be at high risk of CVS morbidity/mortality. None of the CVS risk calculators identified this high risk. Intriguing data indicate PWV may represent an accessible early indicator of CVS dysfunction. These data prompt comprehensive assessment and management of CVS risk factors in cancer survivors and review of the use of risk calculators in this population.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Transmission of drug-resistant HIV-1 has decreased in the UK since the early 2000s. This analysis reports recent trends and characteristics of transmitted drug resistance (TDR) in the UK from 2010 to 2013. METHODS Resistance tests conducted in antiretroviral treatment (ART)-naïve individuals between 2010 and 2013 were analysed for the presence of transmitted drug resistance mutations (TDRMs), defined as any mutations from a modified 2009 World Health Organization surveillance list, or a modified 2013 International Antiviral Society-USA list for integrase tests. Logistic regression was used to examine associations between demographics and the prevalence of TDRMs. RESULTS TDRMs were observed in 1223 (7.5%) of 16 425 individuals; prevalence declined from 8.1% in 2010 to 6.6% in 2013 (P = 0.02). The prevalence of TDRMs was higher among men who have sex with men (MSM) compared with heterosexual men and women (8.7% versus 6.4%, respectively) with a trend for decreasing TDRMs among MSM (P = 0.008) driven by a reduction in nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NRTI)-related mutations. The most frequently detected TDRMs were K103N (2.2%), T215 revertants (1.6%), M41L (0.9%) and L90M (0.7%). Predicted phenotypic resistance to first-line ART was highest to the nonnucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTIs) rilpivirine and efavirenz (6.2% and 3.4%, respectively) but minimal to NRTIs, including tenofovir, and protease inhibitors (PIs). No major integrase TDRMs were detected among 101 individuals tested while ART-naïve. CONCLUSIONS We observed a decrease in TDRMs in recent years. However, this was confined to the MSM population and rates remained stable in those with heterosexually acquired HIV infection. Resistance to currently recommended first-line ART, including integrase inhibitors, remained reassuringly low.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To describe the pattern of drug resistance at virological failure in the NEAT001/ANRS143 trial (first-line treatment with ritonavir-boosted darunavir plus either tenofovir/emtricitabine or raltegravir). METHODS Genotypic testing was performed at baseline for reverse transcriptase (RT) and protease genes and for RT, protease and integrase (IN) genes for patients with a confirmed viral load (VL) >50 copies/mL or any single VL >500 copies/mL during or after week 32. RESULTS A resistance test was obtained for 110/805 (13.7%) randomized participants qualifying for resistance analysis (61/401 of participants in the raltegravir arm and 49/404 of participants in the tenofovir/emtricitabine arm). No resistance-associated mutation (RAM) was observed in the tenofovir/emtricitabine plus darunavir/ritonavir arm, and all further analyses were limited to the raltegravir plus darunavir arm. In this group, 15/55 (27.3%) participants had viruses with IN RAMs (12 N155H alone, 1 N155H + Q148R, 1 F121Y and 1 Y143C), 2/53 (3.8%) with nucleotide analogue RT inhibitor RAMs (K65R, M41L) and 1/57 (1.8%) with primary protease RAM (L76V). The frequency of IN mutations at failure was significantly associated with baseline VL: 7.1% for a VL of <100,000 copies/mL, 25.0% for a VL of ≥100,000 copies/mL and <500,000 copies/mL and 53.8% for a VL of ≥500,000 copies/mL (PTREND = 0.007). Of note, 4/15 participants with IN RAM had a VL < 200 copies/mL at time of testing. CONCLUSIONS In the NEAT001/ANRS143 trial, there was no RAM at virological failure in the standard tenofovir/emtricitabine plus darunavir/ritonavir regimen, contrasting with a rate of 29.5% (mostly IN mutations) in the raltegravir plus darunavir/ritonavir NRTI-sparing regimen. The cumulative risk of IN RAM after 96 weeks of follow-up in participants initiating ART with raltegravir plus darunavir/ritonavir was 3.9%.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES HIV-1 transmitted drug resistance (TDR) in treatment-naïve individuals is a well-described phenomenon. Baseline genotypic resistance testing is considered standard of care in most developed areas of the world. The aim of this analysis was to characterize HIV-1 TDR and the use of resistance testing in START trial participants. METHODS In the Strategic Timing of AntiRetroviral Treatment (START) trial, baseline genotypic resistance testing results were collected at study entry and analysed centrally to determine the prevalence of TDR in the study population. Resistance was based on a modified 2009 World Health Organization definition to reflect newer resistance mutations. RESULTS Baseline resistance testing was available in 1946 study participants. Higher rates of testing occurred in Europe (86.7%), the USA (81.3%) and Australia (89.9%) as compared with Asia (22.2%), South America (1.8%) and Africa (0.1%). The overall prevalence of TDR was 10.1%, more commonly to nonnucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (4.5%) and nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (4%) compared with protease inhibitors (2.8%). The most frequent TDR mutations observed were M41L, D67N/G/E, T215F/Y/I/S/C/D/E/V/N, 219Q/E/N/R, K103N/S, and G190A/S/E in reverse transcriptase, and M46I/L and L90M in protease. By country, the prevalence of TDR was highest in Australia (17.5%), France (16.7%), the USA (12.6%) and Spain (12.6%). No participant characteristics were identified as predictors of the presence of TDR. CONCLUSIONS START participants enrolled in resource-rich areas of the world were more likely to have baseline resistance testing. In Europe, the USA and Australia, TDR prevalence rates varied by country.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Body mass index (BMI), a measure of obesity typically assessed in middle age or later, is known to be positively associated with pancreatic cancer. However, little evidence exists regarding the influence of central adiposity, a high BMI during early adulthood, and weight gain after early adulthood on pancreatic cancer risk. DESIGN We conducted a pooled analysis of individual-level data from 20 prospective cohort studies in the National Cancer Institute BMI and Mortality Cohort Consortium to examine the association of pancreatic cancer mortality with measures of central adiposity (e.g. waist circumference; n = 647 478; 1947 pancreatic cancer deaths), BMI during early adulthood (ages 18-21 years) and BMI change between early adulthood and cohort enrollment, mostly in middle age or later (n = 1 096 492; 3223 pancreatic cancer deaths). Multivariable hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated using Cox proportional hazards regression models. RESULTS Higher waist-to-hip ratio (HR = 1.09, 95% CI 1.02-1.17 per 0.1 increment) and waist circumference (HR = 1.07, 95% CI 1.00-1.14 per 10 cm) were associated with increased risk of pancreatic cancer mortality, even when adjusted for BMI at baseline. BMI during early adulthood was associated with increased pancreatic cancer mortality (HR = 1.18, 95% CI 1.11-1.25 per 5 kg/m(2)), with increased risk observed in both overweight and obese individuals (compared with BMI of 21.0 to <23 kg/m(2), HR = 1.36, 95% CI 1.20-1.55 for BMI 25.0 < 27.5 kg/m(2), HR = 1.48, 95% CI 1.20-1.84 for BMI 27.5 to <30 kg/m(2), HR = 1.43, 95% CI 1.11-1.85 for BMI ≥30 kg/m(2)). BMI gain after early adulthood, adjusted for early adult BMI, was less strongly associated with pancreatic cancer mortality (HR = 1.05, 95% CI 1.01-1.10 per 5 kg/m(2)). CONCLUSIONS Our results support an association between pancreatic cancer mortality and central obesity, independent of BMI, and also suggest that being overweight or obese during early adulthood may be important in influencing pancreatic cancer mortality risk later in life.

Abstract
Cells exposed to extreme physicochemical or mechanical stimuli die in an uncontrollable manner, as a result of their immediate structural breakdown. Such an unavoidable variant of cellular demise is generally referred to as ‘accidental cell death' (ACD). In most settings, however, cell death is initiated by a genetically encoded apparatus, correlating with the fact that its course can be altered by pharmacologic or genetic interventions. ‘Regulated cell death' (RCD) can occur as part of physiologic programs or can be activated once adaptive responses to perturbations of the extracellular or intracellular microenvironment fail. The biochemical phenomena that accompany RCD may be harnessed to classify it into a few subtypes, which often (but not always) exhibit stereotyped morphologic features. Nonetheless, efficiently inhibiting the processes that are commonly thought to cause RCD, such as the activation of executioner caspases in the course of apoptosis, does not exert true cytoprotective effects in the mammalian system, but simply alters the kinetics of cellular demise as it shifts its morphologic and biochemical correlates. Conversely, bona fide cytoprotection can be achieved by inhibiting the transduction of lethal signals in the early phases of the process, when adaptive responses are still operational. Thus, the mechanisms that truly execute RCD may be less understood, less inhibitable and perhaps more homogeneous than previously thought. Here, the Nomenclature Committee on Cell Death formulates a set of recommendations to help scientists and researchers to discriminate between essential and accessory aspects of cell death.

Abstract
Fragile X Syndrome (FXS) is the most common form of inherited intellectual disability and results from a loss of Fragile X mental retardation protein (FMRP). FMRP is important for mRNA shuttling and translational control and binds to proteins important for synaptic plasticity. Like many developmental disorders, FXS is associated with alterations in synaptic plasticity that may impair learning and memory processes in the brain. However, it remains unclear whether FMRP plays a ubiquitous role in synaptic plasticity in all brain regions. We report that a loss of FMRP leads to impairments in N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR)-dependent synaptic plasticity in the dentate gyrus (DG), but not in the cornu ammonis area 1 (CA1) subregion of the hippocampus of adult mice. DG-specific deficits are accompanied by a significant reduction in NMDAR GluN1, GluN2A, and GluN2B subunit levels and reduced serine 831 GluA1 phosphorylation specifically in this region. Importantly, we demonstrate that treatment with NMDAR co-agonists (glycine or D-serine) independently rescue impairments in NMDAR-dependent synaptic plasticity in the DG of the Fragile X mental retardation 1 (Fmr1) knockout mouse. These findings implicate the NMDAR in the pathophysiology of FXS and suggest that indirect agonists of the NMDAR may be a successful therapeutic intervention in FXS.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Conflicting evidence exists on the relationship between physical activity (PA) and incident hematologic malignancies. Herein, we used a large cohort study to examine this association. PATIENTS AND METHODS Sixty-five thousand three hundred twenty-two volunteers aged 50-76 years were recruited from 2000 to 2002. Incident hematologic malignancies (n = 666) were identified through 2009 by linkage to the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results cancer registry. Hazard ratios (HRs) for hematologic malignancies associated with PA averaged over 10 years before baseline were estimated with Cox proportional hazards models, adjusting for factors associated with hematologic cancers or PA. RESULTS There was a decreased risk of hematologic malignancies associated with PA (HR = 0.66 [95% confidence interval, 95% CI 0.51-0.86] for the highest tertile of all PA, P-trend = 0.005, and HR = 0.60 [95% CI 0.44-0.82] for the highest tertile of moderate/high-intensity PA, P-trend = 0.002). These associations were strongest for myeloid neoplasms (HR = 0.48 [95% CI 0.29-0.79] for the highest tertile of all PA, P-trend = 0.013, and HR = 0.40 [95% CI 0.21-0.77] for the highest tertile of moderate/high-intensity PA, P-trend = 0.016). There were also significant associations between PA and chronic lymphocytic leukemia/small lymphocytic lymphoma or other mature B-cell lymphomas except plasma cell disorders. CONCLUSIONS Our study offers the strongest epidemiological evidence, to date, to suggest an association between regular PA and dose-dependent risk reduction for most hematologic malignancies, particularly myeloid neoplasms.

Abstract
PURPOSE Glucosamine and chondroitin are non-vitamin, non-mineral supplements which have anti-inflammatory properties. These supplements are typically used for joint pain and osteoarthritis and are commonly taken as either glucosamine alone or glucosamine plus chondroitin. An exploratory analysis conducted within the VITamins And Lifestyle (VITAL) study observed any use of glucosamine and chondroitin to be associated with reduced risk of colorectal cancer (CRC) after 5 years of follow-up. METHODS With two additional years of follow-up, we have studied these associations in greater depth, including associations by frequency/duration of use and by formulation, and have evaluated whether observed associations are modified by factors associated with inflammation. Participants include 75,137 western Washington residents aged 50-76 who completed the mailed VITAL questionnaire between 2000 and 2002. Use of glucosamine and chondroitin was ascertained by questions about supplement use during the 10-year period prior to baseline, and participants were followed for CRC through 2008 (n = 557). Cox regression was used to estimate hazard ratios (HRs) and 95 % confidence intervals (CIs). RESULTS Persons reporting use of glucosamine + chondroitin on 4+ days/week for 3+ years had a non-statistically significant 45 % lower CRC risk than non-users (HR: 0.55; 95 % CI 0.30-1.01; p-trend: 0.16). This association varied by body mass index (p-interaction: 0.006), with inverse association observed among the overweight/obese (p-trend: 0.02), but not among the underweight/normal weight. Use of glucosamine alone was not significantly associated with CRC risk. CONCLUSIONS There is great need to identify safe and effective cancer preventive strategies, suggesting that glucosamine and chondroitin may merit further attention as a potential chemopreventive agent.

Abstract
In 2009, the Nomenclature Committee on Cell Death (NCCD) proposed a set of recommendations for the definition of distinct cell death morphologies and for the appropriate use of cell death-related terminology, including 'apoptosis', 'necrosis' and 'mitotic catastrophe'. In view of the substantial progress in the biochemical and genetic exploration of cell death, time has come to switch from morphological to molecular definitions of cell death modalities. Here we propose a functional classification of cell death subroutines that applies to both in vitro and in vivo settings and includes extrinsic apoptosis, caspase-dependent or -independent intrinsic apoptosis, regulated necrosis, autophagic cell death and mitotic catastrophe. Moreover, we discuss the utility of expressions indicating additional cell death modalities. On the basis of the new, revised NCCD classification, cell death subroutines are defined by a series of precise, measurable biochemical features.

Abstract
The direct intraparenchymal administration of oncolytic viral vectors by convection-enhanced delivery (CED) represents a promising new treatment strategy for malignant gliomas. However, there is no evidence to suggest that oncolytic viruses as large as herpes simplex virus-1 (HSV-1) can be administered by CED, as this has not been systematically examined in an animal model. In this study, the administration of a herpes simplex viral vector, HSV1, has been evaluated in detail in the gray and white matter of both rat and pig models, using high flow-rate infusions, co-infusing heparin or preinfusing the tissue with an isotonic albumin solution. Rat HSV-1 infusions at both slow (0.5 μl min(-1)) and high infusion rates (2.5 μl min(-1)) led to extensive tissue damage and negligible cell transduction. Co-infusion with heparin led to extensive hemorrhage. Preinfusion of tissue with an isotonic albumin solution facilitated widespread vector distribution and cell transduction in white matter only. Using this approach in pig brain led to widespread vector distribution with extensive transduction of astrocytes and activated microglia. In rat brain, enhanced green fluorescent protein expression peaked 48 h after vector administration and was associated with a vigorous immune response. These findings indicate that direct infusions of HSV-1-based viral vectors into the brain lead to minimal vector distribution, negligible cell transduction and extensive damage. Tissue preinfusion with an isotonic solution prior to vector administration represents an effective technique for achieving widespread HSV-1 distribution.

Abstract
164 Background: Autophagy is conserved, genetically controlled catabolic response to starvation and stress whereby cells self- digest intracellular proteins and organelles by targeting them for degradation in lysosomes to generate energy and mitigate damage, thereby supporting cancer cell survival. We hypothesized that HCQ, by blocking autophagy, would slow PC growth. Methods: Pts had rising PSA after primary therapy for PC, no radiographic evidence of metastasis, no (neo)adjuvant ADT within 3 months of enrollment and testosterone > 150 ng/dL. HCQ was dosed at 400 mg/day (cohort 1) or 600 mg/day (cohort 2). Endpoints were PSA response (defined as a change in slope of PSA rise by at least 25%, when log (PSA) is plotted vs. time) and assessment of safety and tolerability. Levels of p62 (which accumulates upon autophagy inhibition) and accumulation of autophagosomes (measured by EM) were assessed in blood mononuclear cells. Results: 38 pts (35 cohort 1; 3 cohort 2) of planned 64 pts with median age 65 (52-81), Gleason scores: 5 (5%), 6 (18%), 7 (55%), 8 (8%), 9 (13%) have been accrued. 30 pts have completed 6 cycles of therapy and 2 pts have completed 4 cycles of HCQ. 14/32 (44%) pts included in the analysis had a decrease in doubling time after treatment. 2 (6%) had declining PSA. Treatment was well tolerated, with grade 1 rash (10%), grade 1 nausea (10%) and grade 1 diarrhea (20%) being the predominant side effects noted. 3 pts had grade 2 toxicities (rash and diarrhea). There were no grade 3/4 toxicities. EM and p62 was assessed in 12 and 20 pts, respectively, and showed evidence of mitochondrial dysfunction and p62 accumulation. Conclusions: HCQ 400 mg/day appears to have some activity in PSA progression after localized therapy with minimal toxicity. Evaluation with higher doses of HCQ is ongoing. Assessing markers of autophagy including EM and p62 are feasible in pts and will require further validation in larger trials. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

Abstract
Monophasic action potentials (MAPs) were recorded from the spongy and compact layers of the yellowfin tuna Thunnus albacares ventricle as stimulation frequency was increased. MAP duration decreased with increase in stimulation frequency in both the spongy and compact myocardial layers, but no significant difference in MAP duration was observed between the layers.

Abstract
Achieving accurate intracranial electrode or catheter placement is critical in clinical practice in order to maximise the efficacy of deep brain stimulation and drug delivery respectively as well as to minimise side-effects. We have developed a highly accurate and robust method for MRI-guided, stereotactic delivery of catheters and electrodes to deep target structures in the brain of pigs. This study outlines the development of this equipment and animal model. Specifically this system enables reliable head immobilisation, acquisition of high-resolution MR images, precise co-registration of MRI and stereotactic spaces and overall rigidity to facilitate accurate burr hole-generation and catheter implantation. To demonstrate the utility of this system, in this study a total of twelve catheters were implanted into the putamen of six Large White Landrace pigs. All implants were accurately placed into the putamen. Target accuracy had a mean Euclidean distance of 0.623 mm (standard deviation of 0.33 mm). This method has allowed us to accurately insert fine cannulae, suitable for the administration of therapeutic agents by convection-enhanced delivery (CED), into the brain of pigs. This study provides summary evidence of a robust system for catheter implantation into the brain of a large animal model. We are currently using this stereotactic system, implantation procedure and animal model to develop catheter-based drug delivery systems that will be translated into human clinical trials, as well as to model the distribution of therapeutic agents administered by CED over large volumes of brain.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Current strategies to ameliorate cardiac ischaemic and reperfusion damage, including block of the sodium-hydrogen exchanger, are therapeutically ineffective. Here we propose a different approach, block of the persistent sodium current (INaP). EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH Left ventricular pressure was measured as an index of functional deficit in isolated, Langendorff perfused, hearts from adult rats, subjected to 30 min global ischaemia and reperfusion with vehicle only (control) or riluzole (1-10 microM) in the perfusate. Cell shortening and intracellular Ca2+ concentrations [Ca2+](i) were measured in adult rat isolated myocytes subjected to hypoxia and re-oxygenation. The block of transient and persistent sodium currents by concentrations of riluzole between 0.01 and 100 microM were assessed in rat isolated myocytes using patch clamp techniques. KEY RESULTS In perfused hearts, riluzole produced a concentration-dependent cardioprotective action, with minor protection from 1 microM and produced rapid and almost complete recovery upon reperfusion from 3 and 10 microM. In isolated myocytes, riluzole at 3 and 10 microM greatly attenuated or prevented the hypoxia- and reperfusion-induced rise in [Ca2+](i) and the contractile deficit. In patch clamp experiments, riluzole blocked the persistent sodium current with an IC(50) of 2.7 microM, whereas the block of the transient sodium current was only apparent at concentrations above 30 microM. CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS Riluzole preferentially blocked INaP and was protective in cardiac ischaemia and reperfusion. Thus block of the persistent sodium current would be a viable method of ameliorating cardiac ischaemic and reperfusion damage.
