Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) Initial treatment for patients with squamous cell carcinoma of the anal canal includes definitive chemoradiation. Salvage abdominoperineal resection (APR) is the treatment of choice for recurrent or persistent disease. Older studies suggest approximately 50% successful salvage of recurrent or persistent disease with APR. Risk factors for failure after salvage APR are incompletely characterized. MATERIALS/METHODS Using a single institutional database, patients were identified who underwent salvage APR after definitive intensity-modulated radiotherapy-based chemoradiation between 2003 and 2022. Clinical and pathologic variables analyzed included age at APR, sex, race, HIV status, initial cT stage, initial cN stage, radiation dose, recurrent vs persistent disease, recurrent pT stage, recurrent pN stage, the presence of LVSI, PNI or <2mm surgical margins, and the use of either intraoperative radiation or another treatment modality in addition to APR. The log rank test was used to determine differences in time from APR to events (local recurrence, distant metastasis and death) based on clinical and pathologic variables. The Cox Proportional Hazard Model was used to perform multivariable analysis for all factors with a univariate P-value <0.1. RESULTS Of 628 patients with anal squamous cell carcinoma, 50 (8.0%) were treated with abdominoperineal resection for locally recurrent (n = 29, 58%) or locally persistent (n = 21, 42%) disease. Median [interquartile range] follow up was 40.0 months [15.2-68.0 months] from APR. Median local recurrence-free survival was not reached; 1- and 2-year local recurrence-free survival was 81% (95% CI 72-92%) and 76% (64-89%). On multivariable analysis, pathologic T-stage of the recurrence (3.85 (1.07-13.9); P = .040), the presence of lymphovascular space invasion (9.1 (1.12-73.62); P = .038) and surgical margins <2mm (8.81 (2.11-36.73); P = .003) were all significantly associated with higher rates of local recurrence. Median distant metastasis-free survival was not reached; 1- and 2-year distant metastasis-free survival was 88% (81-98%) and 79% (67-92%). On multivariable analysis, only persistent (versus recurrent) local disease was significantly associated with higher rates of distant metastasis (1.23 (1.05-5.55) P = .043). Median overall survival was not reached; 1- and 2-year overall survival was 90% (81-98%) and 78% (65-90%). On multivariable analysis, only recurrent pT stage (T3/4 vs T1/2) was associated with higher rates of death (5.87 (1.02-33.65); P = .047). CONCLUSION APR is a successful salvage modality for anal squamous cell carcinoma with recurrent or persistent disease after chemoradiation results. Patients with pT3/4 disease, lymphovascular space invasion, surgical margins <2 mm may be associated with higher re-recurrence rates and may benefit from more frequent monitoring or treatment escalation.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) Low anterior resection syndrome (LARS) describes disordered bowel function including tenesmus, frequent, clustered, incomplete, urgent or incontinent bowel movements. The impact of clinical and radiation dosimetric factors on LARS score is unknown. We aimed to evaluate the radiation plans for patients who received long course chemoradiation (LC-CRT) to identify potential dosimetric predictors of LARS. MATERIALS/METHODS We identified patients with rectal cancer treated with LC-CRT (50.4Gy in 28 fractions) at our institution from 2016-2020 who were alive and without disease. As a part of a larger patient-reported outcome survey, we obtained the Low Anterior Resection Syndrome Score (LARS) for patients without an ostomy at the time of the survey. We utilized clinical and dosimetric variables in a multivariate analysis including age at LC-CRT, body mass index, sex, distance of the tumor from the anal verge (AV), threatened mesorectal fascia (MRF) on staging imaging, T-stage, N-stage, receipt of surgery (vs non-operative management (NOM), radiation technique (3DCRT vs VMAT), mean dose and D0.03ccs for the anal canal (defined as 4cm from the anal verge) and D0.03cc, V30Gy and V45Gy for the small bowel loops. We then created a multiple linear regression model to predict LARS using P>.20 on univariate testing. RESULTS Of 110 patients treated with preoperative LC-CRT and who did not have an ostomy, 57 responded (51.8%). The median [interquartile range (IQR)] interval from completion of LC-CRT to survey completion was 38.4 months [26.3-48.9]. Thirty-four patients (60%) were men, the median [IQR] BMI was 28 [24-31.9], the median [IQR] distance of the tumor to the anal verge was 7cm [5-10], 40 (70%) had T3 tumors, 7 (12%) had T4 tumors, 45 (79%) were N+. Forty-one patients (72%) had surgery following LC-CRT, and 16 (28%) had non-operative management. 3D conformal technique was used for 47 (82%) and VMAT used for 10 patients (18%). The median [IQR] LARS score was 32 [24-38] with 35 patients (61%) classified as Major LARS (LARS score = 30-42). On multiple linear regression modeling (Table), only receipt of surgery significantly predicted for higher (worse) LARS score. CONCLUSION In our cohort, patients who received surgery after LC-CRT had a significantly higher LARS score. Of the dosimetric parameters tested, D0.03ccs was the best predictor and could potentially be significant with a larger number of patients. Further work is needed to improve bowel function and quality of life for patients treated with LC-CRT for rectal adenocarcinoma.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) Abdominoperineal resection (APR) is the standard salvage treatment for recurrent or persistent squamous cell carcinoma of the anus (SCCA). However, reirradiation (reRT) can be used preoperatively or for those who are not candidates for surgery. MATERIALS/METHODS Using a single institutional database, patients were identified who underwent reRT for SCCA from 2003 to 2022. Response to reRT and outcomes after reRT were recorded. Variables analyzed included age at reRT, sex, reason for reRT (recurrent SCCA vs new SCCA after pelvic radiation for a different malignancy), interval between initial radiation and reRT, reRT dose, concurrent chemotherapy, receipt of APR and the presence of distant metastases at the time of reRT. Cox Proportional Hazard Model was used; multivariable analysis for all factors with a univariate P-value <0.1 on univariable analysis. RESULTS A total of 42 patients received reRT, which consisted of 1.5 Gray (Gy) twice daily fractions with ≥6-hour interval to a total dose ranging 30Gy to 54Gy (median [IQR] 39Gy [39-42Gy]. Thirty-eight patients (90.5%) received concurrent chemotherapy; most often with weekly cisplatin and 5-fluorouracil (N = 23, 54.8%). Median [IQR] follow-up after reRT was 11.4 months [4.9-40.8 months]. Median [IQR] initial radiation dose was 54Gy [54-58Gy], and median [IQR] interval between initial radiation and reRT was 3.6 years [2.1-6.0 years]. For 8 patients (19.1%), the initial radiation was given for a different pelvic malignancy prior to being diagnosed with SCCA. Four of these patients received brachytherapy alone or in conjunction with external beam. For the remaining 34 patients, the initial radiation was for SCCA and the reRT was for recurrent SCCA either in the anal canal (N = 23, 67.6%) or regional nodes (N = 11, 32.3%). Four patients (9.5%) had distant disease at the time of reRT. Eleven patients (26.2%) had planned APR after preoperative reRT; 1 patient had a pathologic complete response (pCR), 2 patients had a near pCR (<5% viable cancer). Twenty-nine patients (69.0%) were treated with reRT alone; 15 (51.7%) attained a clinical CR. Two patients (4.8%) were treated with palliative intent and response was not assessed. Median local recurrence free survival (LRFS) was 9.9 months; 2- and 3-year LRFS were both 41%. Median distant metastasis free survival (DMFS) was 11.8 months; 2- and 3-year DMFS were 38% and 34%, respectively. Median overall survival (OS) was 40.5 months; 2- and 3-year OS were 54% and 51%, respectively. On multivariable analysis, only the presence of distant disease at the time of reRT was significantly associated with worse LRFS (HR (95% CI) 4.14 (1.34-12.81); P = .014), worse DMFS (4.06 (1.37-12.06); P = .012) and worse OS (5.73 (1.57-20.9); P = .008). CONCLUSION ReRT is an option for patients presenting with either recurrent SCCA or new SCCA after prior pelvic radiation for a different malignancy. ReRT can be given prior to planned salvage APR or alone for patients who are not surgical candidates with an approximate 50% cCR rate.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) Traditional liver dose constraints specify that a critical volume of 700 cc of non-tumor liver should be spared from receiving a hepatotoxic dose. We evaluated the safety of liver-directed ablative radiotherapy for patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (iCCA), or liver metastases (LM) with Child-Pugh (CP) A5 liver function at baseline and with low functional liver volume as estimated by Tc-99m sulfur colloid single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT). We hypothesized that functional liver image guidance with SPECT would allow safe delivery of ablative radiotherapy in patients with limited liver volume. MATERIALS/METHODS A phase 1 trial with a 3+3 design was conducted to evaluate the safety of comprehensive ablative radiotherapy to the liver disease using escalating functional non-target liver radiation dose constraints. Eligibility criteria included (1) a diagnosis of HCC, iCCA, or LM, (2) prior treatment with irinotecan or oxaliplatin chemotherapy or liver resection, and (3) a minimum functional liver volume of 400 cc as estimated by SPECT using a threshold of 40% maximum intensity. Patients with CP >A5 liver function, prior liver-directed radiotherapy, or prior Yttrium-90 therapy were excluded. The prescription dose was 67.5-75 Gy in 15 fractions or 75-100 Gy in 25 fractions. The volumetric dose constraint for functional non-target liver receiving <24 Gy for 15 fractions or <27 Gy for 25 fractions was determined by the dose level of trial enrollment: level 0 was ≥400 cc and level +1 was ≥300 cc. A level -1 was included if needed. We used standard 15 and 25 fraction dose constraints for other organs at risk. The following dose limiting toxicities (DLTs) were assessed within 6-8 weeks of completing radiotherapy: Grade 3 hypoalbuminemia, increase in INR, increase in bilirubin, or ascites, or Grade 4 hepatic failure or any radiation-related toxicity. RESULTS Twelve patients enrolled between February 2016 and June 2022. The median (range) GTV was 36 (2-651) cc. The median CT anatomical non-tumor liver volume was 1584 (764-2699) cc, and the median SPECT functional liver volume was 1117 (570-1928) cc, with a Pearson correlation coefficient of 0.98 (p<0.001). The median non-target SPECT functional liver volume below the volumetric dose constraint was 684 (429-1244) cc. None of the 3 patients treated in dose level 0, and none of the 9 patients treated in dose level +1 experienced any DLTs. The 1-year in-treatment-field control rate was 55%, and 1-year overall survival was 71%. CONCLUSION Ablative radiotherapy can be safely delivered using functional SPECT image guidance, which enables sparing lower volumes of functional liver than traditionally accepted in patients with CP A5 liver function. Further evaluation with a phase 2 study is warranted.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The European Society of Medical Oncology (ESMO) has suggested using the ESMO-Magnitude of Clinical Benefit Scale (MCBS) to grade the magnitude of clinical benefit of cancer therapies. This approach has not been applied to radiation therapy (RT) yet. We applied the ESMO-MCBS to experiences describing the use of RT to assess (1) the 'scoreability' of the data, (2) evaluate the reasonableness of the grades for clinical benefit and (3) identify potential shortcomings in the current version of the ESMO-MCBS in its applicability to RT. MATERIALS AND METHODS We applied the ESMO-MCBS v1.1 to a selection of studies in radiotherapy that had been identified as references in the development of American Society for Radiation Oncology (ASTRO) evidence-based guidelines on whole breast radiation. Of the 112 cited references, we identified a subset of 16 studies that are amenable to grading using the ESMO-MCBS. RESULTS Of the 16 studies reviewed, 3/16 were scoreable with the ESMO tool. Six of 16 studies could not be scored because of shortcomings in the ESMO-MCBS v1.1: (1) in 'non-inferiority studies', there is no credit for improved patient convenience, reduced patient burden or improved cosmesis; (2) in 'superiority studies' evaluating local control as a primary endpoint, there is no credit for the clinical benefit such as reduced need for further interventions. In 7/16 studies, methodological deficiencies in the conduct and reporting were identified. CONCLUSIONS This study represents a first step in determining the utility of the ESMO-MCBS in the evaluation of clinical benefit in radiotherapy. Important shortcomings were identified that would need to be addressed in developing a version of the ESMO-MCBS that can be robustly applied to radiotherapy treatments. Optimization of the ESMO-MCBS instrument will proceed to enable assessment of value in radiotherapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Human ether-a-go-go-related gene (hERG; Kv 11.1) channel inhibition is a widely accepted predictor of cardiac arrhythmia. hERG channel inhibition alone is often insufficient to predict pro-arrhythmic drug effects. This study used a library of dofetilide derivatives to investigate the relationship between standard measures of hERG current block in an expression system and changes in action potential duration (APD) in human-induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes (hiPSC-CMs). The interference from accompanying block of Cav 1.2 and Nav 1.5 channels was investigated along with an in silico AP model. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH Drug-induced changes in APD were assessed in hiPSC-CMs using voltage-sensitive dyes. The IC50 values for dofetilide and 13 derivatives on hERG current were estimated in an HEK293 expression system. The relative potency of each drug on APD was estimated by calculating the dose (D150 ) required to prolong the APD at 90% (APD90 ) repolarization by 50%. KEY RESULTS The D150 in hiPSC-CMs was linearly correlated with IC50 of hERG current. In silico simulations supported this finding. Three derivatives inhibited hERG without prolonging APD, and these compounds also inhibited Cav 1.2 and/or Nav 1.5 in a channel state-dependent manner. Adding Cav 1.2 and Nav 1.2 block to the in silico model recapitulated the direction but not the extent of the APD change. CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS Potency of hERG current inhibition correlates linearly with an index of APD in hiPSC-CMs. The compounds that do not correlate have additional effects including concomitant block of Cav 1.2 and/or Nav 1.5 channels. In silico simulations of hiPSC-CMs APs confirm the principle of the multiple ion channel effects.

Abstract
Human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes (hiPSC-CM) and higher throughput platforms have emerged as potential tools to advance cardiac drug safety screening. This study evaluated the use of high bandwidth photometry applied to voltage-sensitive fluorescent dyes (VSDs) to assess drug-induced changes in action potential characteristics of spontaneously active hiPSC-CM. Human iPSC-CM from 2 commercial sources (Cor.4U and iCell Cardiomyocytes) were stained with the VSD di-4-ANEPPS and placed in a specialized photometry system that simultaneously monitors 2 wavebands of emitted fluorescence, allowing ratiometric measurement of membrane voltage. Signals were acquired at 10 kHz and analyzed using custom software. Action potential duration (APD) values were normally distributed in cardiomyocytes (CMC) from both sources though the mean and variance differed significantly (APD90: 229 ± 15 ms vs 427 ± 49 ms [mean ± SD, P < 0.01]; average spontaneous cycle length: 0.99 ± 0.02 s vs 1.47 ± 0.35 s [mean ± SD, P < 0.01], Cor.4U vs iCell CMC, respectively). The 10-90% rise time of the AP (Trise) was ∼6 ms and was normally distributed when expressed as 1/[Formula: see text] in both cell preparations. Both cell types showed a rate dependence analogous to that of adult human cardiac cells. Furthermore, nifedipine, ranolazine, and E4031 had similar effects on cardiomyocyte electrophysiology in both cell types. However, ranolazine and E4031 induced early after depolarization-like events and high intrinsic firing rates at lower concentrations in iCell CMC. These data show that VSDs provide a minimally invasive, quantitative, and accurate method to assess hiPSC-CM electrophysiology and detect subtle drug-induced effects for drug safety screening while highlighting a need to standardize experimental protocols across preparations.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Venous thromboembolic events (VTEs) are a significant cause of death in patients with cancer. The incidence of VTE is not well characterized in early phase clinical trials of novel antineoplastic agents, or in hepatic dysfunction studies designed for patients with varying degrees of liver test abnormalities. We compared the incidences of VTE in phase 1 clinical trials (P1CTs) and hepatic dysfunction trials (HDCTs) sponsored by the Cancer Therapy Evaluation Program of the National Cancer Institute (NCI) of the United States. MATERIALS & METHODS We reviewed individual patient records of 1841 subjects for symptomatic VTE diagnosed while on study: 1328 subjects on 42 P1CTs, and 513 subjects on 9 HDCTs. The NCI's Organ Dysfunction Working Group definitions were used to categorize patients. The incidences of VTEs between patients were compared by the Chi square test. Confounders were evaluated with the Cochran-Mantel-Haenszel method. RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS There were 43 VTEs identified among all subjects (2.3%). There were significantly more VTE observed in the subjects on P1CTs (n=38, 2.9%) than in the subjects on HDCTs (n=5, 1.0%; RR 0.341, 95% 0.13-0.86, p=0.015). For patients on HDCTs, those with severe dysfunction had a high incidence of VTE (RR 10.5 (1.12-93.6), p=0.021) that remained significant in a multivariate model. VTEs were observed less frequently in patients who were enrolled in HDCT than those who were enrolled in P1CT; however, patients with severe hepatic dysfunction were more likely to experience VTE. Severe liver test abnormalities may not be protective against VTE in patients with malignancies receiving chemotherapy.

Abstract
PURPOSE Elderly oncology patients are not enrolled in early-phase trials in proportion to the numbers of geriatric patients with cancer. There may be concern that elderly patients will not tolerate investigational agents as well as younger patients, resulting in a disproportionate number of dose-limiting toxicities (DLT). Recent single-institution studies provide conflicting data on the relationship between age and DLT. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN We retrospectively reviewed data about patients treated on single-agent, dose-escalation, phase I clinical trials sponsored by the Cancer Therapy Evaluation Program (CTEP) of the National Cancer Institute. Patients' dose levels were described as a percentage of maximum tolerated dose, the highest dose level at which <33% of patients had a DLT, or recommended phase II dose (RP2D). Mixed-effect logistic regression models were used to analyze relationships between the probability of a DLT and age and other explanatory variables. RESULTS Increasing dose, increasing age, and worsening performance status (PS) were significantly related to an increased probability of a DLT in this model (P < 0.05). There was no association between dose level administered and age (P = 0.57). CONCLUSIONS This analysis of phase I dose-escalation trials, involving more than 500 patients older than 70 years of age, is the largest reported. As age and dose level increased and PS worsened, the probability of a DLT increased. Although increasing age was associated with occurrence of DLT, this risk remained within accepted thresholds of risk for phase I trials. There was no evidence of age bias on enrollment of patients on low or high dose levels.

Abstract
AIM Rats selectively bred for inborn low capacity of running (LCR) display a series of poor health indices, whereas rats selected for high capacity of running (HCR) display a healthy profile. We hypothesized that selection of low aerobic capacity over generations leads to a phenotype with increased diastolic Ca(2+) leak that trigger arrhythmia. METHODS We used rats selected for HCR (N = 10) or LCR (N = 10) to determine the effect of inborn aerobic capacity on Ca(2+) leak and susceptibility of ventricular arrhythmia. We studied isolated Fura-2/AM-loaded cardiomyocytes to detect Ca(2+) handling and function on an inverted epifluorescence microscope. To determine arrhythmogenicity, we did a final experiment with electrical burst pacing in Langendorff-perfused hearts. RESULTS Ca(2+) handling was impaired by reduced Ca(2+) amplitude, prolonged time to 50% Ca(2+) decay and reduced sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca(2+) content. Impaired Ca(2+) removal was influenced by reduced SR Ca(2+) ATP-ase 2a (SERCA2a) function and increased sodium/Ca(2+) exchanger (NCX) in LCR rats. Diastolic Ca(2) leak was 87% higher in LCR rats. The leak was reduced by CaMKII inhibition. Expression levels of phosphorylated threonine 286 CaMKII levels and increased RyR2 phosphorylation at the serine 2814 site mechanistically support our findings of increased leak in LCR. LCR rats had significantly higher incidence of ventricular fibrillation. CONCLUSION Selection of inborn low aerobic capacity over generations leads to a phenotype with increased risk of ventricular fibrillation. Increased phosphorylation of CaMKII at serine 2814 at the cardiac ryanodine receptor appears as an important mechanism of impaired Ca(2+) handling and diastolic Ca(2+) leak that results in increased susceptibility to ventricular fibrillation.

Abstract
Maximal oxygen uptake (Vo2max) is a strong prognostic marker for morbidity and mortality, but the cardio-protective effect of high inborn Vo2max remains unresolved. We aimed to investigate whether rats with high inborn Vo2max yield cardio-protection after myocardial infarction (MI) compared with rats with low inborn Vo2max. Rats breed for high capacity of running (HCR) or low capacity of running (LCR) were randomized into HCR-SH (sham), HCR-MI, LCR-SH, and LCR-MI. Vo2max was lower in HCR-MI and LCR-MI compared with respective sham (P < 0.01), supported by a loss in global cardiac function, assessed by echocardiography. Fura 2-AM loaded cardiomyocyte experiments revealed that HCR-MI and LCR-MI decreased cardiomyocyte shortening (39%, and 34% reduction, respectively, both P < 0.01), lowered Ca(2+) transient amplitude (37%, P < 0.01, and 20% reduction, respectively), and reduced sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca(2+) content (both; 20%, P < 0.01) compared with respective sham. Diastolic Ca(2+) cycling was impaired in HCR-MI and LCR-MI evidenced by prolonged time to 50% Ca(2+) decay that was partly explained by the 47% (P < 0.01) and 44% (P < 0.05) decrease in SR Ca(2+)-ATPase Ca(2+) removal, respectively. SR Ca(2+) leak increased by 177% in HCR-MI (P < 0.01) and 67% in LCR-MI (P < 0.01), which was abolished by inhibition of Ca(2+)/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II. This study demonstrates that the effect of MI in HCR rats was similar or even more pronounced on cardiac- and cardiomyocyte contractile function, as well as on Ca(2+) handling properties compared with observations in LCR. Thus our data do not support a cardio-protective effect of higher inborn aerobic capacity.

Abstract
Human atrial transient outward K(+) current (I(TO)) is decreased in a variety of cardiac pathologies, but how I(TO) reduction alters action potentials (APs) and arrhythmia mechanisms is poorly understood, owing to non-selectivity of I(TO) blockers. The aim of this study was to investigate effects of selective I(TO) changes on AP shape and duration (APD), and on afterdepolarisations or abnormal automaticity with β-adrenergic-stimulation, using the dynamic-clamp technique in atrial cells. Human and rabbit atrial cells were isolated by enzymatic dissociation, and electrical activity recorded by whole-cell-patch clamp (35-37°C). Dynamic-clamp-simulated I(TO) reduction or block slowed AP phase 1 and elevated the plateau, significantly prolonging APD, in both species. In human atrial cells, I(TO) block (100% I(TO) subtraction) increased APD(50) by 31%, APD(90) by 17%, and APD(-61 mV) (reflecting cellular effective refractory period) by 22% (P < 0.05 for each). Interrupting I(TO) block at various time points during repolarisation revealed that the APD(90) increase resulted mainly from plateau-elevation, rather than from phase 1-slowing or any residual I(TO). In rabbit atrial cells, partial I(TO) block (∼40% I(TO) subtraction) reversibly increased the incidence of cellular arrhythmic depolarisations (CADs; afterdepolarisations and/or abnormal automaticity) in the presence of the β-agonist isoproterenol (0.1 μm; ISO), from 0% to 64% (P < 0.05). ISO-induced CADs were significantly suppressed by dynamic-clamp increase in I(TO) (∼40% I(TO) addition). ISO+I(TO) decrease-induced CADs were abolished by β(1)-antagonism with atenolol at therapeutic concentration (1 μm). Atrial cell action potential changes from selective I(TO) modulation, shown for the first time using dynamic-clamp, have the potential to influence reentrant and non-reentrant arrhythmia mechanisms, with implications for both the development and treatment of atrial fibrillation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Reduced cardiac contractility has been associated with disrupted myocardial Ca(2+) signalling. The 1,4 benzothiazepine K201 (JTV-519) acts on several Ca(2+) handling proteins and improves cardiac contractility in vivo in a variety of animal models of myocardial dysfunction. However, it is unclear whether this improvement depends on the systemic effects of K201 or if K201 reverses the effects of Ca(2+) dysregulation, regardless of the cause. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH The effect of K201 on cardiac mechanical function was assessed in isolated working hearts from adult rabbits, using a ventricular pressure-volume catheter. In separate experiments, the effect of K201 was investigated in hearts following pharmacologically induced Ca(2+) overload using elevated extracellular [Ca(2+) ] ([Ca(2+) ](o) ) and β-adrenoceptor stimulation. KEY RESULTS K201 induced a concentration-dependent decline in systolic function (peak pressure, dP/dt(max) and preload recruitable stroke work), lusitropy (reduced dP/dt(min) and increased end diastolic pressure) and stroke volume, independent of decreased heart rate. In separate experiments, mechanical function in hearts exposed to 4.5 mmol·L(-1) [Ca(2+) ](o) and 150 nmol·L(-1) isoprenaline declined until cessation of aortic flow (in 6 out of 11 hearts). However, all hearts perfused with the addition of 1 µmol·L(-1) K201 maintained aortic flow and demonstrated significantly improved peak systolic pressures, dP/dt(max) and dP/dt(min) . CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS K201 significantly improved mechanical function of the heart during Ca(2+) overload. This suggests that K201 can limit the detrimental effects of elevated intracellular Ca(2+) and exert beneficial effects on cardiac contractile function, independent of systemic effects previously observed in vivo.

Abstract
K201 has previously been shown to reduce diastolic contractions in vivo during β-adrenergic stimulation and elevated extracellular calcium concentration ([Ca2+]o). The present study characterised the effect of K201 on electrically stimulated and spontaneous diastolic sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR)-mediated Ca2+ release and contractile events in isolated rat cardiomyocytes during β-adrenergic stimulation and elevated [Ca2+]o. Parallel experiments using confocal microscopy examined spontaneous diastolic Ca2+ release events at an enhanced spatiotemporal resolution. 1.0 μmol/L K201 in the presence of 150 nmol/L isoproterenol (ISO) and 4.75 mmol/L [Ca2+]o significantly decreased the amplitude of diastolic contractions to ~16% of control levels. The stimulated free Ca2+ transient amplitude was significantly reduced, but stimulated cell shortening was not significantly altered. When intracellular buffering was taken into account, K201 led to an increase in action potential-induced SR Ca2+ release. Myofilament sensitivity to Ca2+ was not changed by K201. Confocal microscopy revealed diastolic events composed of multiple Ca2+ waves (2–3) originating at various points along the cardiomyocyte length during each diastolic period. 1.0 μmol/L K201 significantly reduced the (a) frequency of diastolic events and (b) initiation points/diastolic interval in the remaining diastolic events to 61% and 71% of control levels respectively. 1.0 μmol/L K201 can reduce the probability of spontaneous diastolic Ca2+ release and their associated contractions which may limit the propensity for the contractile dysfunction observed in vivo.

Abstract
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a disorder of the rhythm of electrical activation of the cardiac atria. It is the most common cardiac arrhythmia, has multiple aetiologies, and increases the risk of death from stroke. Pharmacological therapy is the mainstay of treatment for AF, but currently available anti-arrhythmic drugs have limited efficacy and safety. An improved understanding of how anti-arrhythmic drugs affect the electrophysiological mechanisms of AF initiation and maintenance, in the setting of the different cardiac diseases that predispose to AF, is therefore required. A variety of animal models of AF has been developed, to represent and control the pathophysiological causes and risk factors of AF, and to permit the measurement of detailed and invasive parameters relating to the associated electrophysiological mechanisms of AF. The purpose of this review is to examine, consolidate and compare available relevant data on in-vivo electrophysiological mechanisms of AF suppression by currently approved and investigational anti-arrhythmic drugs in such models. These include the Vaughan Williams class I-IV drugs, namely Na(+) channel blockers, β-adrenoceptor antagonists, action potential prolonging drugs, and Ca(2+) channel blockers; the "upstream therapies", e.g., angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors, statins and fish oils; and a variety of investigational drugs such as "atrial-selective" multiple ion channel blockers, gap junction-enhancers, and intracellular Ca(2+)-handling modulators. It is hoped that this will help to clarify the main electrophysiological mechanisms of action of different and related drug types in different disease settings, and the likely clinical significance and potential future exploitation of such mechanisms.

Abstract
Spontaneous Ca²(+) waves in cardiac muscle cells are thought to arise from the sequential firing of local Ca²(+) sparks via a fire-diffuse-fire mechanism. This study compares the ability of the ryanodine receptor (RyR) blocker ruthenium red (RuR) to inhibit these two types of Ca²(+) release in permeabilised rabbit ventricular cardiomyocytes. Perfusing with 600 nm Ca²(+) (50 μm EGTA) caused regular spontaneous Ca²(+) waves that were imaged with the fluorescence from Fluo-5F using a laser-scanning confocal microscope. Addition of 4 μm RuR caused complete inhibition of Ca²(+) waves in 50% of cardiomyocytes by 2 min and in 100% by 4 min. Separate experiments used 350 μm EGTA (600 nm Ca²(+)) to limit Ca²(+) diffusion but allow the underlying Ca(2+) sparks to be imaged. The time course of RuR-induced inhibition did not match that of waves. After 2 min of RuR, none of the characteristics of the Ca²(+) sparks were altered, and after 4 min Ca²(+) spark frequency was reduced ∼40%; no sparks could be detected after 10 min. Measurements of Ca(2+) within the SR lumen using Fluo-5N showed an increase in intra-SR Ca²(+) during the initial 2-4 min of perfusion with RuR in both wave and spark conditions. Computational modelling suggests that the sensitivity of Ca²(+) waves to RuR block depends on the number of RyRs per cluster. Therefore inhibition of Ca²(+) waves without affecting Ca²(+) sparks may be explained by block of small, non-spark producing clusters of RyRs that are important to the process of Ca²(+) wave propagation.

Abstract
This study examines the effects of the intracellular protein FKBP12.6 on action potential and associated K+ currents in isolated adult rabbit ventricular cardiomyocytes. FKBP12.6 was over-expressed by ~6 times using a recombinant adenovirus coding for human FKBP12.6. This over-expression caused prolongation of action potential duration (APD) by ~30%. The amplitude of the transient outward current (Ito) was unchanged, but rate of inactivation at potentials positive to +40 mV was increased. FKBP12.6 over-expression decreased the amplitude of the inward rectifier current (IK1) by ~25% in the voltage range −70 to −30 mV, an effect prevented by FK506 or lowering intracellular [Ca2+] below 1 nM. Over-expression of an FKBP12.6 mutant, which cannot bind calcineurin, prolonged APD and affected Ito and IK1 in a similar manner to wild-type protein. These data suggest that FKBP12.6 can modulate APD via changes in IK1 independently of calcineurin binding, suggesting that FKBP12.6 may affect APD by direct interaction with IK1.

Abstract #6076
Background: Over the next 20 years, important demographic changes in the US will emerge, with the number of older and non-white Americans increasing dramatically. Though breast cancer incidence is known to vary by both age and race, the projected impact of impending population changes on breast cancer incidence has never been quantified. To delineate the future burden of breast cancer, we calculated population-based projections of breast cancer incidence through 2030.
 Material and Methods: SEER data provided current age- and race-specific incidence rates for invasive or in situ female breast cancer. Age- and race-specific projections for the US population through 2030 were derived from Census Bureau data. Assuming stable race- and age-adjusted incidence, the total number of breast cancer cases by race and age through 2030 was estimated.
 Results: From 2008 to 2030, the total number of breast cancer cases is expected to increase from 264,000 to 357,000. Of cases diagnosed in 2030, 60% will occur in women ages 65 and older. This represents a 67% increase in the number of breast cancer cases in women age 65 and over (from 127,000 to 212,000), compared to a 6% increase in women under age 65 (from 137,000 to 145,000). In 2030, 19% of all cases will occur in non-whites, representing a 70% increase in non-whites (from 40,000 to 68,000), compared to a 29% increase in whites (from 224,000 to 289,000). While cases in older non-white women currently represent only 13% of older patients, they will comprise 17% by 2030.
 Discussion: With major demographic shifts on the horizon, an imminent wave of older breast cancer patients will impose a substantial burden on the US healthcare system. Efforts to expand capacity, contain cost, and define optimal treatment for older patients are urgently needed. Moreover, the projected increase in the percentage of breast cancer in non-whites heightens the importance of efforts to identify and minimize health care disparities.

Abstract #6087
Introduction: Several studies have demonstrated the potential value of brachytherapy in the treatment of breast cancer, either as local boost irradiation, or alone as accelerated partial breast irradiation, after breast conserving surgery (BCS). In 2002, the Food and Drug Administration approved the first balloon-based brachytherapy delivery system, signaling the beginning of broader incorporation of partial breast irradiation into breast cancer treatment. While subsequent studies have been seeking to define the patient population that will derive optimal clinical benefit from breast brachytherapy, this treatment option has remained widely available for use in a variety of settings. However, no prior study has described the frequency of breast brachytherapy use in the US. In a population-based cohort of older breast cancer patients, we characterized utilization of breast brachytherapy across the nation at the inception of this era.
 Methods: A cross-sectional sample from a national Medicare database identified 37,323 beneficiaries (age≥65) with newly diagnosed invasive breast cancer treated with BCS in 2003. ICD-9 and CPT codes indicated receipt of external beam radiotherapy (EBRT) and brachytherapy. Percent use by state, region, age, and race was compared using Pearson χ2.
 Results: Across the nation, 73% of older patients were treated with any radiotherapy after BCS. Of these patients, 97% were treated with EBRT alone, 3% with brachytherapy alone, and <1% with EBRT plus brachytherapy boost. For patients treated with brachytherapy, 98% received interstitial therapy and 2% intracavitary therapy. Though percent utilization of brachytherapy modalities ranged from 1% to 4% across different locations in the US, no statistically significant variation was detected by state (P=0.62) or by region (P=0.32). In addition, brachytherapy use did not differ by race (P=0.63) or age (P=0.59).
 Conclusions: At the inception of the era in which partial breast irradiation was becoming incorporated into the care of breast cancer patients, only a small percentage of all patients received breast brachytherapy across the US. As contemporary data become available, future studies may seek to trace how this new treatment strategy is becoming more widely integrated into routine breast cancer treatment.

Abstract
Spontaneous Ca(2+) release from the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) appears to play an important role in cardiac sinoatrial node pacemaking. However, comparatively little is known about the role of intracellular Ca(2+) in the atrioventricular node (AVN). Intracellular Ca(2+) was therefore monitored in cells isolated from the rabbit AVN, using fluo-3 in conjunction with confocal microscopy. These cells displayed spontaneous Ca(2+) transients and action potentials. Ca(2+) transients were normally preceded by a small, slow increase (ramp) of intracellular Ca(2+) which was sometimes, but not always, accompanied by Ca(2+) sparks. During the Ca(2+) transient, intracellular [Ca(2+)] increased initially at the cell periphery and propagated inhomogeneously to the cell centre. The rate of spontaneous activity was decreased by ryanodine (1muM) and increased by isoprenaline (500nM); these changes were accompanied by a decrease and increase, respectively, in the slope of the preceding Ca(2+) ramp, with no significant change in Ca(2+) spark characteristics. Rapidly reducing bathing [Na(+)] inhibited spontaneous activity. These findings provide the first information on Ca(2+) handling at the sub-cellular level and link cellular Ca(2+) cycling to the genesis of spontaneous activity in the AVN.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The drug K201 (JTV-519) increases inotropy and suppresses arrhythmias in failing hearts, but the effects of K201 on normal hearts is unknown. METHODS The effect of K201 on excitation-contraction (E-C) coupling in normal myocardium was studied by using voltage-clamp and intracellular Ca(2+) measurements in intact cells. Sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) function was assessed using permeabilised cardiomyocytes. RESULTS Acute application of <1 micromol/L K201 had no significant effect on E-C coupling. K201 at 1 micromol/L decreased Ca(2+) transient amplitude (to 83+/-7%) without affecting I(Ca,L) or the SR Ca(2+) content. At 3 micromol/L K201 caused a larger reduction of Ca(2+) transient amplitude (to 60+/-7%) with accompanying reductions in I(Ca,L) amplitude (to 66+/-8%) and SR Ca(2+) content (74+/-9%). Spontaneous SR Ca(2+) release during diastole was induced by increasing intracellular [Ca(2+)]. At 1 micromol/L K201 reduced the frequency of spontaneous Ca(2+) release. The effect of K201 on SR-mediated Ca(2+) waves and Ca(2+) sparks was examined in beta-escin-permeabilised cardiomyocytes by confocal microscopy. K201 (1 micromol/L) reduced the frequency and velocity of SR Ca(2+) waves despite no change in SR Ca(2+) content. At 3 micromol/L K201 completely abolished Ca(2+) waves and reduced the SR Ca(2+) content (to approximately 73%). K201 at 1 micromol/L reduced Ca(2+) spark amplitude and frequency. Assays specific to SR Ca(2+)-ATPase and RyR2 activity indicated that K201 inhibited both SR Ca(2+) uptake and release. CONCLUSIONS K201 modifies E-C coupling in normal cardiomyocytes. A dual inhibitory action on SERCA and RyR2 explains the ability of K201 to suppress spontaneous diastolic Ca(2+) release during Ca(2+) overload without significantly affecting Ca(2+) transient amplitude.

Abstract
6588 Background: There are significant costs associated with IV administration of cancer drugs ranging from adverse events associated with the administration to the need for specialized equipment, supplies and personnel time. This study utilized a novel provider-payer contract database to compare the cost components of providing IV therapy to women with early and late stage breast cancer. Methods: Women diagnosed with breast cancer (ICD-9 code 174) between 01/01/2003 and 05/31/2006 and receiving IV monotherapy were identified from an administrative claims database of >60 multi-specialty medical practices/clinics (additional ICD-9 codes 196–198 used to identify late stage breast cancer). Costs were estimated on a per IV administration visit basis using the allowable amount for a claim which closely represents the actual amount paid to providers. Published literature was used to categorize the various billable cost components. Results: 1,393 early and 828 late stage breast cancer patients receiving any of 11 IV breast cancer drugs were identified. The costs breakdown by category for all drugs and for the 2 most commonly used drugs, per IV administration visit, is presented in the table . Conclusions: Costs associated with administration of IV therapies and other visit-related services constituted more than 36% of total costs for early stage and 41% of total costs for late stage breast cancer patients. These costs represent a significant cost burden to payers. Maximization of valuable resources could be effected by increased use of effective oral therapies for treatment of breast cancer.

Abstract
The time course and magnitude of the Ca(2+) fluxes underlying spontaneous Ca(2+) waves in single permeabilized ventricular cardiomyocytes were derived from confocal Fluo-5F fluorescence signals. Peak flux rates via the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) release channel (RyR2) and the SR Ca(2+) ATPase (SERCA) were not constant across a range of cellular [Ca(2+)] values. The Ca(2+) affinity (K(mf)) and maximum turnover rate (V(max)) of SERCA and the peak permeability of the RyR2-mediated Ca(2+) release pathway increased at higher cellular [Ca(2+)] loads. This information was used to create a computational model of the Ca(2+) wave, which predicted the time course and frequency dependence of Ca(2+) waves over a range of cellular Ca(2+) loads. Incubation of cardiomyocytes with the Ca(2+) calmodulin (CaM) kinase inhibitor autocamtide-2-related inhibitory peptide (300 nM, 30 mins) significantly reduced the frequency of the Ca(2+) waves at high Ca(2+) loads. Analysis of the Ca(2+) fluxes suggests that inhibition of CaM kinase prevented the increases in SERCA V(max) and peak RyR2 release flux observed at high cellular [Ca(2+)]. These data support the view that modification of activity of SERCA and RyR2 via a CaM kinase sensitive process occurs at higher cellular Ca(2+) loads to increase the maximum frequency of spontaneous Ca(2+) waves.

Abstract
AIM To determine whether reduced cardiomyocyte contractility in heart failure is associated with reduced intracellular pH (pH(i)). Involvement of the Na(+)/H(+) exchanger and the H(+)/K(+) ATPase were investigated with specific blockers. METHODS Myocardial infarction and subsequent heart failure in Sprague-Dawley rats were induced by chronic occlusion of the left coronary artery. 6 weeks post-ligation, contractility (cell shortening) and pH(i) (BCECF fluorescence) were recorded in freshly dissociated cardiomyocytes during 2-10 Hz electrical stimulation, with or without either Na(+)/H(+) exchanger or H(+)/K(+) ATPase inhibition. RESULTS Elevated end-diastolic and reduced peak systolic pressures confirmed heart failure. Increased heart weights (20-30%; P < or = 0.01) and cardiomyocyte lengths and widths (22-25%; P < or = 0.01) confirmed substantial cardiac hypertrophy. In myocytes isolated from sham operated rats, a positive staircase response occurred with stimulation rates from 2 to 7 Hz; further increases in stimulation rate up to 10 Hz reduced contractility. In contrast, pH(i) fell progressively over the entire stimulation range. In failing myocytes, pH(i) was consistently 0.07 pH units lower and contractility 40% lower (P < or = 0.01) than sham control values; the shape of the contractility staircase remained similar to controls. At all stimulation frequencies, Na(+)/H(+) exchanger inhibition reduced pH(i) by 0.05 pH units (P < or = 0.01) and contractility by 22% (P < or = 0.05) in cardiomyocytes from the heart failure group. A significantly smaller decrease of pH(i) and reduction in contractility was observed after inhibition of Na(+)/H(+) exchanger (10 micro m HOE694) in sham myocytes. H(+)/K(+) ATPase inhibition (100 micro m SCH28080) had no effect on pH(i). CONCLUSION Reduced pH(i) is accompanied by reduced cardiomyocyte contractility in isolated myocytes from post-MI heart failure. The data suggest compensatory Na(+)/H(+) exchanger activation in heart failure, whereas H(+)/K(+) ATPase does not appear to contribute significantly to pH(i) maintenance.

Abstract
Little is known about patient awareness of nationally recommended blood pressure targets, especially among patients with cardiac disease. To examine this issue, we interviewed 738 patients hospitalized with coronary artery disease to assess their knowledge of their systolic and diastolic blood pressure levels as well as corresponding national targets. We used bivariate and multivariate analyses to determine if any patient demographic or clinical characteristics were associated with blood pressure knowledge. Only 66.1% of patients could recall their own systolic and diastolic blood pressure levels. Only 48.9% of all patients could correctly name targets for these values. Knowledge of target blood pressure levels was particularly poor among patients who were female (odds ratio (OR) 0.69; 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.49-0.98), aged > or =60 years (OR 0.70, CI 0.51-0.97), without any college education (OR 0.48, CI 0.35-0.65), without a documented history of hypertension (OR 0.57, CI 0.39-0.84), and with known diabetes (OR 0.46, CI 0.33-0.66). Patients in the highest risk group, according to Joint National Committee guidelines stratification, were no more knowledgeable about their blood pressure levels and targets than lower risk patients. A significant proportion of patients hospitalized with coronary artery disease do not know their own blood pressure levels or targets. Current blood pressure education efforts appear inadequate, particularly for certain patient subgroups in which hypertension is an important modifiable risk factor.

Abstract
The effect of S100A1 protein on cardiac excitation-contraction (E-C) coupling was studied using recombinant human S100A1 protein (0.01-10 microM) introduced into single rabbit ventricular cardiomyocytes via a patch pipette. Voltage clamp experiments (20 degrees C) indicated that 0.1 microM S100A1 increased Ca(2+) transient amplitude by approximately 41% but higher or lower S100A1 concentrations had no significant effect. L-type Ca(2+) current amplitude or Ca(2+) efflux rates via the Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchanger (NCX) were unaffected. The rate of Ca(2+) uptake associated with the SR Ca(2+)-ATPase (SERCA2a) was increased by approximately 22% with 0.1 microM S100A1, but not at other S100A1 concentrations. Based on the intracellular Ca(2+) and I(NCX) signals in response to 10 mM caffeine, no significant change in SR Ca(2+) content was observed with S100A1 (0.01-10 microM). Therefore, 0.1 microM S100A1 appeared to increase the fractional Ca(2+) release from the SR. This result was confirmed by measurements of Ca(2+) transient amplitude at a range of SR Ca(2+) contents. The hyperbolic relationship between these two parameters was shifted to the left by 0.1 microM S100A1. [(3)H]-ryanodine binding studies indicated that S100A1 increased ryanodine receptor (RyR) activity at 0.1 and 0.3 microM Ca(2). As with the effects on E-C coupling, 0.1 microM S100A1 produced the largest effect. Co-immunoprecipitation studies on a range of Ca(2+)-handling proteins support the selective interaction of S100A1 on SERCA2a and RyR. In summary, S100A1 had a stimulatory action on RyR2 and SERCA2a in rabbit cardiomyocytes. Under the conditions of this study, the net effect of this dual action is to enhance the Ca(2+) transient amplitude without significantly affecting the SR Ca(2+) content.

Abstract
Two-photon excitation (TPE) spectra of Fura-2, -4F, -6F, -FF, and Furaptra were characterized using a tunable (750-850 nM) ultra-short pulse laser. Two-photon fluorescence of these dyes was studied in free solution and in the cytosol of isolated rabbit ventricular cardiomyocytes. The TPE spectra of the Ca(2+)-free and Ca(2+)-bound forms of the dyes were measured in free solution and expressed in terms of the two-photon fluorescence cross section (Goppert-Meyer units). The Fura dyes displayed the same Ca(2+)-free TPE spectrum in the intracellular volume of permeabilized and intact cardiomyocytes. Fluorescence measurements over a range of laser powers confirmed the TPE of both Ca(2+)-free and Ca(2+)-bound forms of the dyes. Single-wavelength excitation at 810 nM was used to determine the effective dissociation constants (K(eff)) and dynamic ranges (R(f)) of Fura-2, -4F, -6F, -FF, and Furaptra dyes (K(eff) = 181 +/- 52 nM, 1.16 +/- 0.016 micro M, 5.18 +/- 0.3 micro M, 19.2 +/- 1 micro M, and 58.5 +/- 2 micro M; and R(f) = 22.4 +/- 3.8, 12.2 +/- 0.34, 6.3 +/- 0.17, 16.1 +/- 2.8, and 25.4 +/- 4, respectively). Single-wavelength excitation of intracellular Fura-4F resolved diastolic and peak [Ca(2+)] in isolated stimulated cardiomyocytes after calibration of the intracellular signal using reversible exposure to low (100 micro M) extracellular [Ca(2+)]. Furthermore, TPE of Fura-4F allowed continuous, long-term (5-10 min) Ca(2+) imaging in ventricular cardiomyocytes using laser-scanning microscopy without significant cellular photodamage or photobleaching of the dye.

Abstract
Both the cardiac action potential duration (APD) (0.6–1 s) and resting heart rate (30–40 beats/min) in the horse are significantly different from humans and smaller mammals, including the rabbit. This would be anticipated to have consequences for excitation-contraction (EC) coupling and require adaptation of the individual processes involved. The sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) is one of the main components involved in EC coupling. This study examines and compares the activity of this organelle in the horse with that of the rabbit. In particular, the study focuses on SR Ca2+release via the Ca2+release channel/ryanodine receptor (RyR2) and Ca2+uptake via the sarco(endo)plasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase (SERCA) pump. Isolated cardiomyocytes from both horse and rabbit hearts were permeabilized, bathed in a mock intracellular solution, and exposed to a specified [Ca2+]. Rabbit cardiomyocytes exposed to 260 nM [Ca2+] produced spontaneous Ca2+release and propagated Ca2+waves. Horse cells failed to produce Ca2+waves; instead, only local release in the form of Ca2+sparks was evident. However, at 550 nM [Ca2+], Ca2+waves were produced in both species. Ca2+waves were four times less frequent yet ∼1.5 times greater in amplitude in the horse compared with the rabbit. Ca2+wave velocity was comparable between the species. The reason for this disparity in Ca2+wave characteristics is unknown. Separate measurements of oxalate-supported Ca2+uptake into the SR suggest that both horse and rabbit cardiomyocytes have comparable levels SERCA activity. The possible reasons for the observed differences in SR Ca2+release between the horse and rabbit are discussed.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To quantify the frequency of injury in football as a function of tackle parameters. METHOD Video recordings of 123 international matches in three Federation Internationale de Football Association tournaments were used to analyze tackle parameters, and team physicians provided reports of postmatch medical attention to players. RESULTS A total of 8572 tackles were assessed, of which 3464 (40.4%) were fouls. There were 299 incidents of on-pitch medical attention, of which 131 (44%) resulted from foul tackles, and 200 postmatch team physicians' reports, of which 96 (48%) resulted from foul tackles. The cases of on-pitch medical attention resulted in 76 (25%) postmatch physicians' reports, but 124 (62%) of the postmatch physicians' reports were not associated with on-pitch medical attention. Tackled players received 74% of the postmatch medical reports. Tackle types with the greatest probability of requiring medical attention were from the side in terms of tackle direction, jumping vertically in terms of tackle mode, and a clash of heads in terms of tackle action. CONCLUSION Human error on the part of players during the process of tackling and inadequacies in the laws of football and/or their application by match referees were equally responsible for the high levels of injury observed.

Abstract
PURPOSE To understand how tackling leads to injury in football, to develop a framework for classifying tackles, and to identify tackles with the greatest propensity to cause injury. METHOD Video recordings of 123 matches in three FIFA tournaments were used to identify tackling parameters. Team physicians prepared reports of postmatch medical attention to players. RESULTS Tackles from the side were twice as likely to require postmatch medical attention as tackles from behind. Injuries to the head/neck of tackled and tackling players and the torso of tackling players were more likely to receive on-pitch medical attention than other injuries. Injuries to the foot for tackled and tackling players and the lower leg and thigh for tackling players were less likely to receive on-pitch medical attention than other injuries. Tackles with the greatest propensity for causing injury involved clash of heads and two-footed tackles for tackled players and clash of heads, two-footed tackles, jumping vertically, and tackles from the side for tackling players. CONCLUSION The laws of football relating to tackling should be reviewed to provide greater protection from injury by reducing the overall level of risk and, in particular, by protecting players from tackles with the highest propensity for causing injury.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Procedures that reduce contraction are used to facilitate optical measurements of membrane potential, but it is unclear to what extent they affect the excitability of the heart. This study has examined the electrophysiological consequences of a range of extracellular [Ca2+] (0.7-2.5 mmol l(-1)), 2,3-butane-dione monoxime (BDM; 1-20 mmol l(-1)) and cytochalasin-D (Cyto-D; 1-5 micromol l(-1)). METHODS Monophasic action potentials (MAPs) were recorded from the basal epicardial surface of the left ventricle of isolated rabbit hearts. Conduction delay (CD) and time to 90% repolarisation of the monophasic action potential (MAPD90) were measured. The effects of BDM and Cyto-D on restitution were studied at a [Ca2+] of 1.9 mmol l(-1). Restitution curves for MAPD90 were generated using a standard S1-S2 protocol. RESULTS All manoeuvres decreased left ventricular developed pressure (LVDP): 0.7 mmol l(-1) Ca2+ to 74.0 +/- 6.1%, 20 mmol l(-1) BDM to 4.5 +/- 1.0%, and 5 micromol l(-1) Cyto-D to 12.8 +/- 3.5% of control value. CD decreased from a control value (33.3 +/- 1.0 ms, n= 16) to 93.0 +/- 2.2% in 0.7 mmol l(-1) Ca2+, but increased to 133.7 +/- 10.5% in 20 mmol l(-1) BDM and 127.4 +/- 10.6% in 5 micromol l(-1) Cyto-D. At 350 ms pacing cycle length, MAPD90 (control = 119.6 +/- 1.7 ms n= 16) was prolonged by reduced extracellular [Ca2+]. BDM had no effects on MAPD90 at control pacing rates. Cyto-D caused a significant prolongation (to 115.0 +/- 3.0% of control, n= 6) at the highest concentration studied (5 micromol l(-1)). Both BDM (20 mmol l(-1)) and Cyto-D (3 micromol l(-1)) flattened the restitution curves but neither agent altered maximum MAPD90. CONCLUSIONS Extracellular [Ca2+] of 1.9 mmol l(-1) in conjunction with a moderate dose of Cyto-D (3 micromol l(-1)) reduced contractility with minimal effects on action potential duration and conduction at a fixed pacing cycle length. However, both BDM and Cyto-D had pronounced effects on electrical restitution.

Abstract
This study investigated the function of FK506-binding protein (FKBP12.6) using adenoviral-mediated gene transfer to over-express FKBP12.6 (Ad-FKBP12.6) in adult rabbit ventricular cardiomyocytes. Infection with a beta-galactosidase-expressing adenovirus (Ad-LacZ) was used as a control. Peak-systolic intracellular [Ca(2+)] (measured with Fura-2) was higher in the Ad-FKBP12.6 group compared to Ad-LacZ (1 Hz field stimulation at 37 degrees C). The amplitude of caffeine-induced Ca(2+) release was also greater, indicating a higher SR Ca(2+) content in the Ad-FKBP12.6 group. Voltage clamp experiments indicated that FKBP12.6 over-expression did not change L-type Ca(2+) current amplitude or Ca(2+) efflux rates via the Na(+)-Ca(2+) exchanger. Ca(2+) transients comparable to those after Ad-FKBP12.6 transfection could be obtained by enhancing SR Ca(2+) content of Ad-LacZ infected cells with periods of high frequency stimulation. Line-scan confocal microscopy (Fluo-3 fluorescence) of intact cardiomyocytes stimulated at 0.5 Hz (20-21 degrees C) revealed a higher degree of synchronicity of SR Ca(2+) release and fewer non-responsive Ca(2+) release sites in the Ad-FKBP12.6 group compared to control. Ca(2+) spark morphology was measured in beta-escin-permeabilized cardiomyocytes at a free [Ca(2+)](i) of 150 nm. The average values of the spark parameters (amplitude, duration, width and frequency) were reduced in the Ad-FKBP12.6 group. Increasing [Ca(2+)](i) to 400 nm caused coherent propagating Ca(2+) waves in the Ad-FKBP12.6 group but only limited Ca(2+) release events were recorded in the control group. These data indicate that FKBP12.6 over-expression enhances Ca(2+) transient amplitude predominately by increasing SR Ca(2+) content. Moreover, there is also evidence that FKBP12.6 can enhance the coupling between SR Ca(2+) release sites independently of SR content.

Abstract
Na+-Ca2+ exchanger (NCX) protein levels and activity were measured in myocardium from the basal region of the left ventricle of rabbit hearts with significant left ventricular dysfunction (LVD), 8-9 weeks after an apical infarction. NCX protein abundance was higher in the tissue homogenates (121 +/- 11%) and purified membrane fractions (143 +/- 12%) in the LVD compared to the sham-operated (sham) group. NCX mRNA was also higher in the LVD group (126%). Lower NCX protein expression was observed in the membrane fractions from the epicardium compared to the endocardium in both the sham and LVD groups. Transmembrane currents were recorded in isolated cardiomyocytes by single-electrode voltage clamp; [Ca2+]i was measured using Fura-2. Rapid application of 10 mmol l-1 caffeine was used to induce Ca2+ release from the sarcoplasmic reticulum. The subsequent NCX-mediated Ca2+ efflux rate constant was lower (70% of sham) in the LVD group. NCX currents were measured in cardiomyocytes dialysed with 250 nM Ca2+ (50 mmol l-1 EGTA). A lower NCX current (75% of sham) was observed in the LVD group. Lower NCX activity was also observed in cardiomyocytes isolated from the epicardium compared to the endocardium; a transmural difference that was also seen in the LVD group. Reduced activity despite increased protein expression may result from reduced Ca2+ sensitivity of the allosteric regulation of NCX. However, measurements indicated increased Ca2+ sensitivity in the LVD group. Cardiomyocytes from LVD hearts displayed a marked reduction in the transverse tubule area (59% of sham) and the surface area/volume ratio (80% of sham). Disrupted transverse tubule structure may contribute to the decrease in NCX activity despite increased protein expression in LVD.

We report a robust and reliable platform source for visible-wavelength multiphoton microscopy that is based on nonlinear optical methods. We demonstrate a synchronously pumped, singly resonant optical parametric oscillator with simultaneous intracavity third-order quasi-phase matching in a single crystal that generates continuously tunable, visible, and femtosecond-pulsed radiation. The application of the system is demonstrated by two-photon laser-scanning fluorescence microscopy of rabbit cardiac myocytes loaded with the fluorescent Ca2+ indicator fura-2.

Abstract
The Ca(2+) dissociation constant (K(d)) of Fluo-3 was determined using confocal fluorescence microscopy in two different situations: (i) within the cytosol of a permeabilised cardiomyocyte; and (ii) in an intact cardiomyocyte after incubation with the acetoxymethyl ester form of Fluo-3 (AM). Measurements were made on isolated rabbit ventricular cardiomyocytes after permeabilisation by a brief treatment with beta-escin (0.1mg/ml) and equilibration with 10 microM Fluo-3. The K(d) of Fluo-3 within the cytosol was not significantly different from that in free solution (558 +/- 15 nM, n=6). Over a range of cytoplasmic [Ca(2+)], the minimum [Ca(2+)] values between Ca(2+) waves was relatively constant despite changes in wave frequency. After loading intact cardiomyocytes with Fluo-3 by incubation with the -AM, spontaneous Ca(2+) waves were produced by incubation with strophanthidin (10 microM). By assuming a common minimum [Ca(2+)] in permeabilised and intact cells, the intracellular K(d) of Fluo-3 in intact myocytes was estimated to be 898 +/-64 nM (n=6). Application of this K(d) to fluorescence records shows that Ca(2+) waves in intact cells have similar amplitudes to those in permeabilised cells. Stimulation of cardiac myocytes at 0.5 Hz in the absence of strophanthidin (room temperature) resulted in a Ca(2+) transient with a maximum and minimum [Ca(2+)] of 1190 +/- 200 and 158 +/- 30 nM (n=11), respectively.

Abstract
Calcium (Ca(2+)) ions are the currency of heart muscle activity. During excitation-contraction coupling Ca(2+) is rapidly cycled between the cytosol (where it activates the myofilaments) and the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR), the Ca(2+) store. These fluxes occur by the transient activity of Ca(2+)-pumps and -channels. In the failing human heart, changes in activity and expression profile of Ca(2+)-handling proteins, in particular the SR Ca(2+)-ATPase (SERCA2a), are thought to cause an overall reduction in the amount of SR-Ca(2+) available for contraction. In the steady state, the Ca(2+)-content of the SR is essentially a balance between Ca(2+)-uptake via SERCA2a pump and Ca(2+)-release via the cardiac SR Ca(2+)-release channel complex (Ryanodine receptor, RyR2). This review discusses current pharmacological options available to enhance cardiac SR Ca(2+) content and the implications of this approach as an inotropic therapy in heart failure. Two options are considered: (i) activation of the SERCA2a pump to increase SR Ca(2+)-uptake, and (ii) reduction of SR Ca(2+)-leakage through RyR2. RyR2 forms a macromolecular complex with a number of regulatory proteins that either remain permanently bound or that interact in a time- and/or Ca(2+)-dependant manner. These regulatory proteins can dramatically affect RyR2 function, e.g. over-expression of the accessory protein FK 506-binding protein 12.6 (FKBP12.6) has recently been shown to reduce SR Ca(2+)-leak. Recent attempts to design positive inotropes for chronic administrations have focussed on the use of phosphodiesterase III inhibitors (PDE III inhibitors). These compounds, which increase intracellular cAMP-levels, have failed in clinical trials. Therefore medical researchers are seeking new drugs that act through alternative pathways. Novel cardiac inotropes targeting SR Ca(2+)-cycling proteins may have the potential to fill this gap.

Abstract
This combined PET and ERP study was designed to identify the brain regions activated in switching and divided attention between different features of a single object using matched sensory stimuli and motor response. The ERP data have previously been reported in this journal [64]. We now present the corresponding PET data. We identified partially overlapping neural networks with paradigms requiring the switching or dividing of attention between the elements of complex visual stimuli. Regions of activation were found in the prefrontal and temporal cortices and cerebellum. Each task resulted in different prefrontal cortical regions of activation lending support to the functional subspecialisation of the prefrontal and temporal cortices being based on the cognitive operations required rather than the stimuli themselves.

Abstract
Spontaneous sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca(2+) release and propagated intracellular Ca(2+) waves are a consequence of cellular Ca(2+) overload in cardiomyocytes. We examined the relationship between average intracellular [Ca(2+)] and Ca(2+) wave characteristics. The amplitude, time course and propagation velocity of Ca(2+) waves were measured using line-scan confocal imaging of beta-escin-permeabilised cardiomyocytes perfused with 10 microM Fluo-3 or Fluo-5F. Spontaneous Ca(2+) waves were evident at cellular [Ca(2+)] > 200 nM. Peak [Ca(2+)] during a wave was 2.0-2.2 microM; the minimum [Ca(2+)] between waves was 120-160 nM; wave frequency was approximately 0.1 Hz. Raising mean cellular [Ca(2+)] caused increases in all three parameters, particularly Ca(2+) wave frequency. Increases in the rate of SR Ca(2+) release and Ca(2+) uptake were observed at higher cellular [Ca(2+)], indicating calcium-sensitive regulation of these processes. At extracellular [Ca(2+)] > 2 microM, the mean [Ca(2+)] inside the permeabilised cell did not increase above 2 microM. This extracellular-intracellular Ca(2+) gradient could be maintained for periods of up to 5 min before the cardiomyocyte developed a sustained and irreversible hypercontraction. Inclusion of mitochondrial inhibitors (2 microM carbonyl cyanide m-chlorophenylhydrazone and 2 microM oligomycin) while perfusing with > 2 microM Ca(2+) abolished the extracellular-intracellular Ca(2+) gradient through the generation of Ca(2+) waves with a higher peak [Ca(2+)] compared to control conditions. Under these conditions, cardiomyocytes rapidly (< 2 min) developed a sustained and irreversible contraction. These results suggest that mitochondrial Ca(2+) uptake acts to delay an increase in [Ca(2+)] by blunting the peak of the Ca(2+) wave.

Abstract
Protective immunity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection requires the activation of mycobacterium-specific CD8+ T cells, as well as CD4+ T cells. Therefore, optimizing strategies that stimulate CD8+ T cells recognizing dominant mycobacterial antigens, including secreted proteins, may lead to the development of more effective vaccines against tuberculosis. To generate a viral vaccine that is safe in humans, the early secreted protein, MPT64, was expressed in the attenuated vaccinia virus (VV) strain, modified vaccinia virus Ankara (MVA-64). The immunogenicity of MVA-64 was compared with that of the Western Reserve strain of VV (VVWR-64). The replication-defective MVA-64 was as efficient as VVWR-64 in inducing specific antibodies and cytolytic T-cell responses to a defined H-2-Db-restricted epitope on MTP-64. In addition, priming with MPT64-expressing plasmid DNA (DNA-64), and boosting with either MVA-64 or VVWR-64, markedly enhanced MPT64-specific cytolytic and IFN-gamma-producing CD8+ T-cell responses. These findings suggest that MVA may be a suitable vaccine carrier for stimulating mycobacterium-specific CD8+ T-cell responses and may be particularly relevant for developing vaccines for use in regions endemic for tuberculosis and HIV infection.
