Abstract
BACKGROUND Total pancreatectomy with islet autotransplant (TPIAT) can improve quality of life for individuals with pancreatitis but creates health risks including diabetes, exocrine insufficiency, altered intestinal anatomy and function, and asplenia. METHODS We studied survival and causes of death for 693 patients who underwent TPIAT between 2001 and 2020, using the National Death Index with medical records to ascertain survival after TPIAT, causes of mortality, and risk factors for death. We used Kaplan Meier curves to examine overall survival, and Cox regression and competing-risks methods to determine pre-TPIAT factors associated with all-cause and cause-specific post-TPIAT mortality. RESULTS Mean age at TPIAT was 33.6 years (SD = 15.1). Overall survival was 93.1% (95% CI 91.2, 95.1%) 5 years after surgery, 85.2% (95% CI 82.0, 88.6%) at 10 years, and 76.2% (95% CI 70.8, 82.3%) at 15 years. Fifty-three of 89 deaths were possibly related to TPIAT; causes included chronic gastrointestinal complications, malnutrition, diabetes, liver failure, and infection/sepsis. In multivariable models, younger age, longer disease duration, and more recent TPIAT were associated with lower mortality. CONCLUSIONS For patients undergoing TPIAT to treat painful pancreatitis, careful long-term management of comorbidities introduced by TPIAT may reduce risk for common causes of mortality.

Abstract
The instant blood-mediated inflammatory response (IBMIR) causes islet loss and compromises diabetes outcomes after total pancreatectomy with islet autotransplant (TPIAT). We previously reported a possible benefit of etanercept in maintaining insulin secretion 3 months post-TPIAT. Here, we report 2-year diabetes outcomes and peri-operative inflammatory profiles from a randomized trial of etanercept and alpha-1 antitrypsin (A1AT) in TPIAT. We randomized 43 TPIAT recipients to A1AT (90 mg/kg IV x6 doses, n = 13), etanercept (50 mg then 25 mg SQ x 5 doses, n = 14), or standard care (n = 16). Inflammatory cytokines, serum A1AT and unmethylated insulin DNA were drawn multiple times in the perioperative period. Islet function was assessed 2 years after TPIAT with mixed meal tolerance test, intravenous glucose tolerance test and glucose-potentiated arginine induced insulin secretion. Cytokines, especially IL-6, IL-8, IL-10, and MCP-1, were elevated during and after TPIAT. However, only TNFα differed significantly between groups, with highest levels in the etanercept group (p = 0.027). A1AT increased after IAT in all groups (p < 0.001), suggesting endogenous upregulation. Unmethylated insulin DNA ratios (a marker of islet loss) and 2 years islet function testing were similar in the three groups. To conclude, we found no sustained benefit from administering etanercept or A1AT in the perioperative period.

Abstract
BACKGROUND NK cells are dysfunctional in chronic HIV infection as they are not able to clear virus. We hypothesized that an infusion of NK cells, supported by IL-2 or IL-15, could decrease virus-producing cells in the lymphatic tissues. METHODS We conducted a phase 1 pilot study in 6 persons living with HIV (PLHIV), where a single infusion of haploidentical related donor NK cells was given plus either IL-2 or N-803 (an IL-15 superagonist). RESULTS The approach was well tolerated with no unexpected adverse events. We did not pre-treat recipients with cyclophosphamide or fludarabine to "make immunologic space", reasoning that PLHIV on stable antiretroviral treatment remain T-cell depleted in lymphatic tissues. We found donor cells remained detectable in blood for up to 8 days (like what is seen in cancer pretreatment with lymphodepleting chemotherapy) and in the lymph nodes and rectum up to 28 days. There was a moderate decrease in the frequency of viral RNA+ cells in lymph nodes. CONCLUSION There was a moderate decrease in HIV-producing cells in lymph nodes. Further studies are warranted to determine the impact of healthy NK cells on HIV reservoirs and if restoring NK-cell function could be part of an HIV cure strategy.

Abstract
Background Although diabetes after total pancreatectomy and islet autotransplantation (TP-IAT) is one of the biggest concerns for TP-IAT recipients and physicians, reliable prediction of post-TP-IAT glycemic control remains unestablished. This study was conducted to identify early predictors of insulin independence and goal glycemic control by hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) ≤ 6.5% after TP-IAT. Methods In this single-center, retrospective study, patients who underwent TP-IAT (n = 227) were reviewed for simple metabolic markers or surrogate indices of β-cell function obtained 3 mo after TP-IAT as part of standard clinical testing. Long-term metabolic success was defined as (1) insulin independence and (2) HbA1c ≤ 6.5% 1, 3, and 5 y after TP-IAT. Single- and multivariate modeling used 3-mo markers to predict successful outcomes. Results Of the 227 recipients, median age 31 y, 30% male, 1 y after TP-IAT insulin independence, and HbA1c ≤ 6.5% were present in 39.6% and 72.5%, respectively. In single-predictor analyses, most of the metabolic markers successfully discriminated between those attaining and not attaining metabolic goals. Using the best model selected by random forests analysis, we accurately predicted 1-y insulin independence and goal HbA1c control in 77.3% and 86.4% of the patients, respectively. A simpler "clinically feasible" model using only transplanted islet dose and BETA-2 score allowed easier prediction at a small accuracy loss (74.1% and 82.9%, respectively). Conclusions Metabolic testing measures performed 3 mo after TP-IAT were highly associated with later diabetes outcomes and provided a reliable prediction model, giving valuable prognostic insight early after TP-IAT and help to identify recipients who require early intervention.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To investigate the effect of a restrictive blood product utilization protocol on blood product utilization and clinical outcomes. DESIGN We retrospectively reviewed all adult extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) patients from January 2019 to December 2021. The restrictive protocol, implemented in March 2020, was defined as transfusion of blood products for a hemoglobin level less than 7, platelet levels less than 50, and/or fibrinogen levels less than 100. Subgroup analysis was performed based on the mode of ECMO received: venoarterial ECMO, venovenous ECMO, and ECMO support following extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR). SETTING M Health Fairview University of Minnesota Medical Center. PATIENTS The study included 507 patients. INTERVENTIONS One hundred fifty-one patients (29.9%) were placed on venoarterial ECMO, 70 (13.8%) on venovenous ECMO, and 286 (56.4%) on ECPR. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS For patients on venoarterial ECMO (48 [71.6%] vs. 52 [63.4%]; p = 0.374), venovenous ECMO (23 [63.9%] vs. 15 [45.5%]; p = 0.195), and ECPR (54 [50.0%] vs. 69 [39.2%]; p = 0.097), there were no significant differences in survival on ECMO. The last recorded mean hemoglobin value was also significantly decreased for venoarterial ECMO (8.10 [7.80-8.50] vs. 7.50 [7.15-8.25]; p = 0.001) and ECPR (8.20 [7.90-8.60] vs. 7.55 [7.10-8.88]; p < 0.001) following implementation of the restrictive transfusion protocol. CONCLUSIONS These data suggest that a restrictive transfusion protocol is noninferior to ECMO patient survival. Additional, prospective randomized trials are required for further investigation of the safety of a restrictive transfusion protocol.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Total pancreatectomy with islet autotransplantation (TPIAT) can relieve pain for individuals with acute recurrent or chronic pancreatitis. However, TPIAT may increase the risk of poor nutritional status with complete exocrine pancreatic insufficiency, partial duodenectomy, and intestinal reconstruction. Our study's objective was to evaluate nutritional status, anthropometrics, and vitamin levels before and after TPIAT. METHODS The multicenter Prospective Observational Study of TPIAT (POST) collects measures including vitamins A, D, and E levels, pancreatic enzyme dose, and multivitamin (MVI) administration before and 1-year after TPIAT. Using these data, we studied nutritional and vitamin status before and after TPIAT. RESULTS 348 TPIAT recipients were included (68% adult, 37% male, 93% Caucasian). In paired analyses at 1-year follow-up, vitamin A was low in 23% (vs 9% pre-TPIAT, p < 0.001); vitamin E was low in 11% (vs 5% pre-TPIAT, p = 0.066), and 19% had vitamin D deficiency (vs 12% pre-TPIAT, p = 0.035). Taking a fat-soluble multivitamin (pancreatic MVI) was associated with lower risk for vitamin D deficiency (p = 0.002). Adults were less likely to be on a pancreatic MVI at follow-up (34% vs 66% respectively, p < 0.001). Enzyme dosing was adequate. More adults versus children were overweight or underweight pre- and post-TPIAT. Underweight status was associated with vitamin A (p = 0.014) and E (p = 0.02) deficiency at follow-up. CONCLUSIONS Prevalence of fat-soluble vitamin deficiencies increased after TPIAT, especially if underweight. We strongly advocate that all TPIAT recipients have close post-operative nutritional monitoring, including vitamin levels. Pancreatic MVIs should be given to minimize risk of developing deficiencies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In total pancreatectomy with islet auto-transplantation, successful diabetes outcomes are limited by islet loss from the instant blood mediated inflammatory response. We hypothesized that blockade of the inflammatory response with either etanercept or alpha-1-antitrypsin would improve islet function and insulin independence. METHODS We randomized 43 participants to receive A1AT (90 mg/kg x 6 doses, n = 13), or etanercept (50 mg then 25 mg x 5 doses, n = 14), or standard care (n = 16), aiming to reduce detrimental effects of innate inflammation on early islet survival. Islet graft function was assessed using mixed meal tolerance testing, intravenous glucose tolerance testing, glucose-potentiated arginine-induced insulin secretion studies, HbA1c, and insulin dose 3 months and 1 year post-TPIAT. RESULTS We observed the most robust acute insulin response (AIRglu) and acute C-peptide response to glucose (ACRglu) at 3 months after TPIAT in the etanercept-treated group (p ≤ 0.02), but no differences in other efficacy measures. The groups did not differ overall at 1 year but when adjusted by sex, there was a trend towards a sex-specific treatment effect in females (AIRglu p = 0.05, ACRglu p = 0.06), with insulin secretion measures highest in A1AT-treated females. CONCLUSION Our randomized trial supports a potential role for etanercept in optimizing early islet engraftment but it is unclear whether this benefit is sustained. Further studies are needed to evaluate possible sex-specific responses to either treatment. CLINICAL TRIAL NOTATION This study was performed under an Investigational New Drug Application (IND #119828) from the Food and Drug Administration and was registered on clinicaltrials.gov (NCT#02713997).

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine if islet autotransplantation (IAT) independently improves the quality of life (QoL) in patients after total pancreatectomy and islet autotransplantation (TP-IAT). BACKGROUND TP-IAT is increasingly being used for intractable chronic pancreatitis. However, the impact of IAT on long-term islet function and QoL is unclear. METHODS TP-IAT patients at our center >1 year after TP-IAT with ≥1 Short Form-36 QoL measure were included. Patients were classified as insulin-independent or insulin-dependent, and as having islet graft function or failure by C-peptide. The associations of insulin use and islet graft function with QoL measures were analyzed by using a linear mixed model, accounting for time since transplant and within-person correlation. RESULTS Among 817 islet autograft recipients, 564 patients [median (interquartile range) age: 34 (20, 45) years, 71% female] and 2161 total QoL surveys were included. QoL data were available for >5 years after TP-IAT for 42.7% and for >10 years for 17.3%. Insulin-independent patients exhibited higher QoL in 7 of 8 subscale domains and for Physical Component Summary and Mental Component Summary scores ( P <0.05 for all). Physical Component Summary was 2.91 (SE=0.57) higher in insulin-independent patients ( P <0.001). No differences in QoL were observed between those with and without graft function, but islet graft failure was rare (15% of patients). However, glycosylated hemoglobin was much higher with islet graft failure. CONCLUSIONS QoL is significantly improved when insulin independence is present, and glycosylated hemoglobin is lower with a functioning islet graft. These data support offering IAT, rather than just performing total pancreatectomy and treating with exogenous insulin.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Chronic pancreatitis (CP) is characterized by abdominal pain, recurrent hospitalizations, frequent exposure to antibiotics, nutritional deficiencies, and chronic opioid use. Data describing the gut microbial community structure of patients with CP is limited. We aimed to compare gut microbiota of a group of patients with severe CP being considered for total pancreatectomy with islet autotransplantation (TPIAT) with those of healthy controls and to associate these differences with severity of clinical symptoms. METHODS We collected stool from healthy donors (n = 14) and patients with CP (n = 20) undergoing workup for TPIAT, in addition to clinical metadata and a validated abdominal symptoms severity survey. RESULTS Patients with CP had significantly lower alpha diversity than healthy controls ( P < 0.001). There was a significantly increased mean relative abundance of Faecalibacterium in healthy controls compared with patients with CP ( P = 0.02). Among participants with CP, those with lower alpha diversity reported worse functional abdominal symptoms ( P = 0.006). CONCLUSIONS These findings indicate that changes in gut microbial community structure may contribute to gastrointestinal symptoms and provide basis for future studies on whether enrichment of healthy commensal bacteria such as Faecalibacterium could provide clinically meaningful improvements in outcomes for CP patients undergoing TPIAT.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Total pancreatectomy with islet autotransplantation (TPIAT) is a surgical option for refractory chronic pancreatitis-related pain. Despite the known clinical implications of TPIAT, the molecular effects remain poorly investigated. We performed the first hypothesis-generating study of the urinary proteome before and after TPIAT. METHODS Twenty-two patients eligible for TPIAT were prospectively enrolled. Urine samples were collected the week before and 12 to 18 months after TPIAT. The urine samples were prepared for bottom-up label-free quantitative proteomics using the "MStern" protocol. RESULTS Using 17 paired samples, we identified 2477 urinary proteins, of which 301 were significantly changed post-TPIAT versus pre-TPIAT. Our quantitative analysis revealed that the molecular response to TPIAT was highly sex-specific, with pronounced sex differences pre-TPIAT but minimal differences afterward. Comparing post-TPIAT versus pre-TPIAT, we found changes in cell-cell adhesion, intracellular vacuoles, and immune response proteins. After surgery, immunoglobulins, complement proteins, and cathepsins were increased, findings that may reflect glomerular damage. Finally, we identified both known and novel markers for immunoglobulin A nephropathy after 1 patient developed the disease 2 years after TPIAT. CONCLUSIONS We found distinct changes in the urinary proteomic profile after TPIAT and the response to TPIAT is highly sex-specific.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Total pancreatectomy with islet autotransplantation (TPIAT) is a viable option for treating debilitating recurrent acute pancreatitis (RAP) and chronic pancreatitis (CP) in adults and children. No data is currently available regarding variation in approach to operation. METHODS We evaluated surgical techniques, islet isolation and infusion approaches, and outcomes and complications, comparing children (n = 84) with adults (n = 195) enrolled between January 2017 and April 2020 by 11 centers in the United States in the Prospective Observational Study of TPIAT (POST), which was launched in 2017 to collect standard history and outcomes data from patients undergoing TPIAT for RAP or CP. RESULTS Children more commonly underwent splenectomy (100% versus 91%, p = 0.002), pylorus preservation (93% versus 67%; p < 0.0001), Roux-en-Y duodenojejunostomy reconstruction (92% versus 35%; p < 0.0001), and enteral feeding tube placement (93% versus 63%; p < 0.0001). Median islet equivalents/kg transplanted was higher in children (4577; IQR 2816-6517) than adults (2909; IQR 1555-4479; p < 0.0001), with COBE purification less common in children (4% versus 15%; p = 0.0068). Median length of hospital stay was higher in children (15 days; IQR 14-22 versus 11 days; IQR 8-14; p < 0.0001), but 30-day readmissions were lower in children (13% versus 26%, p = 0.018). Rate of portal vein thrombosis was significantly lower in children than in adults (2% versus 10%, p = 0.028). There were no mortalities in the first 90 days post-TPIAT. CONCLUSIONS Pancreatectomy techniques differ between children and adults, with islet yields higher in children. The rates of portal vein thrombosis and early readmission are lower in children.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES The effect of total pancreatectomy with islet autotransplantation (TPIAT) on bone mineral density (BMD) in patients with CP is unknown. We aimed to assess bone health in patients with CP after TPIAT. METHODS We measured BMD, BMD Z-score, and bone mineral content (BMC) for total body, lumbar spine, right and left hip in 78 patients before and after TPIAT using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA, n = 78 pre-TPIAT, n = 65 paired pre- and 12 months post-TPIAT, n = 33 paired 12 and 18 months post-TPIAT), and tested for association with clinical history including age, smoking status, and medications using paired and two-sample t-tests, linear regression, and Fisher's exact test. Laboratory measures related to bone health were also assessed. RESULTS In the patients with pre-TPIAT DXA, 12% had low BMD (Z-score ≤ -2). BMD, BMD Z-score, and BMC all decreased from pre-to 12 months post-TPIAT. BMD declined by 1.7%-4.1% with the greatest change at the hips. Adjusted for change in lean and fat body mass, DXA changes remained significant for total body and hip. Serum carboxy-terminal collagen crosslinks telopeptide and alkaline phosphatase increased at 12 months post-TPIAT, suggesting possible increased bone remodeling. BMD, BMD Z-score, and BMC did not change between 12 months and 18 months in any of the four regions (p > 0.6). CONCLUSIONS TPIAT is associated with decreases in BMD in the body, lumbar, and hip regions of patients with CP in the first year after TPIAT but these appear to stabilize between 12 and 18 months after TPIAT.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Total pancreatectomy with islet autotransplantation (TPIAT) involves pancreatectomy, splenectomy, and reinjection of the patient's pancreatic islets into the portal vein. This process triggers a local inflammatory reaction and increase in portal pressure, threatening islet survival and potentially causing portal vein thrombosis. Recent research has highlighted a high frequency of extreme thrombocytosis (platelets ≥1000 × 109/L) after TPIAT, but its cause and association with thrombotic risk remain unclear. METHODS This retrospective single-site study of a contemporary cohort of 409 pediatric and adult patients analyzed the frequency of thrombocytosis, risk factors for thrombosis, and antiplatelet and anticoagulation strategies. RESULTS Of 409 patients, 67% developed extreme thrombocytosis, peaking around postoperative day 16. Extreme thrombocytosis was significantly associated with infused islet volumes. Thromboembolic events occurred in 12.2% of patients, with portal vein thromboses occurring significantly earlier than peripheral thromboses. Portal vein thromboses were associated with infused islet volumes and portal pressures but not platelet counts or other measures. Most thromboembolic events (82.7%) occurred before the postoperative day of maximum platelet count. Only 4 of 27 (14.8%) of portal vein thromboses occurred at platelet counts ≥500 × 109/L. Perioperative heparin was given to all patients. Treatment of reactive thrombocytosis using aspirin in adults and hydroxyurea in children was not associated with significantly decreased thromboembolic risk. CONCLUSIONS These results suggest that post-TPIAT thrombocytosis and portal vein thromboses may be linked to the islet infusion inflammation, not directly to each other, and further reducing this inflammation may reduce thrombosis and thrombocytosis frequencies simultaneously.

Abstract
In this single-center, retrospective cohort study, we aimed to elucidate simple metabolic markers or surrogate indices of β-cell function that best predict long-term insulin independence and goal glycemic HbA1c control (HbA1c ≤ 6.5%) after total pancreatectomy with islet autotransplantation (TP-IAT). Patients who underwent TP-IAT (n = 371) were reviewed for metabolic measures before TP-IAT and for insulin independence and glycemic control at 1, 3, and 5 years after TP-IAT. Insulin independence and goal glycemic control were achieved in 33% and 68% at 1 year, respectively. Although the groups who were insulin independent and dependent overlap substantially on baseline measures, an individual who has abnormal glycemia (prediabetes HbA1c or fasting glucose) or estimated IEQs/kg < 2500 has a very high likelihood of remaining insulin dependent after surgery. In multivariate logistic regression modelling, metabolic measures correctly predicted insulin independence in about 70% of patients at 1, 3, and 5 years after TP-IAT. In conclusion, metabolic testing measures before surgery are highly associated with diabetes outcomes after TP-IAT at a population level and correctly predict outcomes in approximately two out of three patients. These findings may aid in prognostic counseling for chronic pancreatitis patients who are likely to eventually need TP-IAT.

Abstract
The impact of the microbiome on HIV disease is widely acknowledged although the mechanisms downstream of fluctuations in microbial composition remain speculative. We detected rapid, dynamic changes in translocated microbial constituents during two years after cART initiation. An unbiased systems biology approach revealed two distinct pathways driven by changes in the abundance ratio of Serratia to other bacterial genera. Increased CD4 T cell numbers over the first year were associated with high Serratia abundance, pro-inflammatory innate cytokines, and metabolites that drive Th17 gene expression signatures and restoration of mucosal integrity. Subsequently, decreased Serratia abundance and downregulation of innate cytokines allowed re-establishment of systemic T cell homeostasis promoting restoration of Th1 and Th2 gene expression signatures. Analyses of three other geographically distinct cohorts of treated HIV infection established a more generalized principle that changes in diversity and composition of translocated microbial species influence systemic inflammation and consequently CD4 T cell recovery.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Smoking and alcohol use are risk factors for acute and chronic pancreatitis, and their role on anxiety, depression, and opioid use in patients who undergo total pancreatectomy and islet autotransplantation (TPIAT) is unknown. METHODS We included adults enrolled in the Prospective Observational Study of TPIAT (POST). Measured variables included smoking (never, former, current) and alcohol abuse or dependency history (yes vs no). Using univariable and multivariable analyses, we investigated the association of smoking and alcohol dependency history with anxiety and depression, opioid use, and postsurgical outcomes. RESULTS Of 195 adults studied, 25 were current smokers and 77 former smokers, whereas 18 had a history of alcohol dependency (of whom 10 were current smokers). A diagnosis of anxiety was associated with current smoking (P = 0.005), and depression was associated with history of alcohol abuse/dependency (P = 0.0001). However, active symptoms of anxiety and depression at the time of TPIAT were not associated with smoking or alcohol status. Opioid use in the past 14 days was associated with being a former smoker (P = 0.005). CONCLUSIONS Active smoking and alcohol abuse history were associated with a diagnosis of anxiety and depression, respectively; however, at the time of TPIAT, symptom scores suggested that they were being addressed.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Gastrointestinal bleeding (GIB) is an uncommon complication after abdominal surgery. Given the unique risks in the total pancreatectomy with islet autotransplant (TPIAT) population, we aimed to describe this population's incidence of postoperative GIB. METHODS Prospectively collected data on patients who underwent a TPIAT from 2001 to 2018 at the University of Minnesota were reviewed for postoperative GIB. Each GIB patient was matched to a control patient and compared for medical, medication, and social history and for clinical outcomes. RESULTS Sixty-eight patients developed a GIB (12.4%) at median time after surgery of 17 months. Etiologies included the following: anastomotic ulcer (35%), Clostridium difficile (4%), gastric or duodenal ulcers (9%), esophagitis/gastritis (10%), hemorrhoids (3%), inflammatory bowel disease (4%), Mallory-Weiss tears (1%), and unknown (29%). During diagnostic workup, 87% had an endoscopic procedure and 3% underwent imaging. Seven patients required an operation (10%), 1 required an open embolization (1%), and 13 required endoscopic treatments (19%). Patients with a GIB were more likely to die (15% vs 5%, P = 0.055). CONCLUSIONS Twelve percent of patients developed a GIB after TPIAT. One third of those had an undefined etiology despite endoscopy. The need for intervention was high (30%).

Abstract
BACKGROUND Preoperative optimization is increasingly emphasized for high-risk surgical patients. One critical component of this includes preoperative advanced care planning to promote goal-concordant care. We aimed to define a subset of patients that might benefit from preoperative palliative care consult for advanced care planning. MATERIALS AND METHODS We examined adult patients admitted from January 2016 to December 2018 to a university health system for elective surgery. Multivariate logistic regression was used to identify variables associated with death within 1 y, and presence of palliative care consults preoperatively. Chi-square analysis evaluated the impact of a palliative care consult on advanced care planning variables. RESULTS Of the 29,132 inpatient elective procedures performed, there was a 2.0% mortality rate at 6 mo and 3.5% at 1 y. Those who died were more likely to be older, male, underweight (BMI <18), or have undergone an otolaryngology, neurosurgery or thoracic procedure type (all P-values < 0.05). At the time of admission, 29% had an advance directive, 90% had a documented code status, and 0.3% had a preoperative palliative care consult. Patients were more likely to have an advanced directive, a power of attorney, a documented code status, and have a do not resuscitate order if they had a palliative care consult (all P-values <0.05). The mortality rates and preoperative palliative care rates per procedure type did not follow similar trends. CONCLUSIONS Preoperative palliative care consultation before elective admissions for surgery had a significant impact on advanced care planning.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Children undergoing total pancreatectomy with islet autotransplantation (TPIAT) for chronic pancreatitis require intensive insulin therapy early after TPIAT with narrow glycemic targets, which can a present significant care burden. Outpatient use of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) systems by children and caregivers early after TPIAT is inadequately studied. METHODS In this open-label study, we randomized 14 children and adolescents (mean age 15.4 years) after hospital discharge for TPIAT to Dexcom G6 CGM (n = 7) or standard care with a glucometer (n = 7) to assess acceptability and glycemic control with use of CGM versus usual care (glucometer). Participants in the control arm also wore a blinded CGM for 1 week. RESULT Children randomized to real-time CGM had lower mean sensor glucose values compared with controls (p = 0.002), and high overall satisfaction with CGM. CONCLUSIONS Our data indicate that CGM is a useful adjunct to diabetes management for children who have recently undergone TPIAT.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Measuring fluid status during intraoperative hemorrhage is challenging, but detection and quantification of fluid overload is far more difficult. Using a porcine model of hemorrhage and over-resuscitation, it is hypothesized that centrally obtained hemodynamic parameters will predict volume status more accurately than peripherally obtained vital signs. METHODS Eight anesthetized female pigs were hemorrhaged at 30 ml/min to a blood loss of 400 ml. After each 100 ml of hemorrhage, vital signs (heart rate, systolic blood pressure, mean arterial pressure, diastolic blood pressure, pulse pressure, pulse pressure variation) and centrally obtained hemodynamic parameters (mean pulmonary artery pressure, pulmonary capillary wedge pressure, central venous pressure, cardiac output) were obtained. Blood volume was restored, and the pigs were over-resuscitated with 2,500 ml of crystalloid, collecting parameters after each 500-ml bolus. Hemorrhage and resuscitation phases were analyzed separately to determine differences among parameters over the range of volume. Conformity of parameters during hemorrhage or over-resuscitation was assessed. RESULTS During the course of hemorrhage, changes from baseline euvolemia were observed in vital signs (systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, and mean arterial pressure) after 100 ml of blood loss. Central hemodynamic parameters (mean pulmonary artery pressure and pulmonary capillary wedge pressure) were changed after 200 ml of blood loss, and central venous pressure after 300 ml of blood loss. During the course of resuscitative volume overload, changes were observed from baseline euvolemia in mean pulmonary artery pressure and central venous pressure after 500-ml resuscitation, in pulmonary capillary wedge pressure after 1,000-ml resuscitation, and cardiac output after 2,500-ml resuscitation. In contrast to hemorrhage, vital sign parameters did not change during over-resuscitation. The strongest linear correlation was observed with pulmonary capillary wedge pressure in both hemorrhage (r2 = 0.99) and volume overload (r2 = 0.98). CONCLUSIONS Pulmonary capillary wedge pressure is the most accurate parameter to track both hemorrhage and over-resuscitation, demonstrating the unmet clinical need for a less invasive pulmonary capillary wedge pressure equivalent.

Abstract
CONTEXT Body composition in total pancreatectomy with islet autotransplantation (TPIAT) has never been studied. OBJECTIVE Determine whether presurgical body composition is associated with islet function and insulin sensitivity after TPIAT. METHODS In 88 adults undergoing TPIAT (median age 41.0 years, IQR 32.8-48.0), beta-cell function and insulin sensitivity were assessed using mixed meal tolerance test and frequent sample intravenous glucose tolerance test before surgery and 12 and 18 months afterward. Body composition was measured by dual x-ray absorptiometry. Analyses used linear and logistic regression. RESULTS Before surgery, 8 individuals (9.1%) were underweight, 40 (45.5%) normal weight, 20 (22.7%) overweight, and 20 (22.7%) obese. Overweight/obese patients had higher area under the curve C-peptide and lower insulin sensitivity index. Baseline body weight was positively associated with first-phase insulin secretion (AIRg) at 12 months (average 38.5 [SE 17.1] mU/L/min higher per extra kg; P = 0.03) and 18 months (38.3 [18.5]; P = 0.04), while baseline lean mass was inversely associated with AIRg at 12 months (-0.05 [0.02] per extra kg; P = 0.01) and 18 months (-0.05 [0.02]; P = 0.03). Percent gynoid fat was inversely associated with disposition index at 18 months (-206.0 [97.2] per extra percent; P = 0.04). Percent body fat and percent gynoid fat were associated with glucose effectiveness index at 18 months (1.9 × 10-3 [0.9 × 10-3] per extra percent; P = 0.04 and -1.96 × 10-3 [0.8 × 10-3]; P = 0.02, respectively). Insulin independence was not significantly associated with body weight or composition. CONCLUSIONS Half of these chronic pancreatitis patients were overweight/obese; underweight was uncommon. Preoperative body weight and composition were associated with islet function but not insulin independence after TPIAT.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Many patients undergoing total pancreatectomy with islet autotransplant (TPIAT) for severe, refractory chronic pancreatitis or recurrent acute pancreatitis have a history of endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP). Using data from the multicenter POST (Prospective Observational Study of TPIAT) cohort, we aimed to determine clinical characteristics associated with ERCP and the effect of ERCP on islet yield. METHODS Using data from 230 participants (11 centers), demographics, pancreatitis history, and imaging features were tested for association with ERCP procedures. Logistic and linear regression were used to assess association of islet yield measures with having any pre-operative ERCPs and with the number of ERCPs, adjusting for confounders. RESULTS 175 (76%) underwent ERCPs [median number of ERCPs (IQR) 2 (1-4). ERCP was more common in those with obstructed pancreatic duct (p = 0.0009), pancreas divisum (p = 0.0009), prior pancreatic surgery (p = 0.005), and longer disease duration (p = 0.004). A greater number of ERCPs was associated with disease duration (p < 0.0001), obstructed pancreatic duct (p = 0.006), and prior pancreatic surgery (p = 0.006) and increased risk for positive islet culture (p < 0.0001). Mean total IEQ/kg with vs. without prior ERCP were 4145 (95% CI 3621-4669) vs. 3476 (95% CI 2521-4431) respectively (p = 0.23). Adjusting for confounders, islet yield was not significantly associated with prior ERCP, number of ERCPs, biliary or pancreatic sphincterotomy or stent placement. CONCLUSIONS ERCP did not appear to adversely impact islet yield. When indicated, ERCP need not be withheld to optimize islet yield but the risk-benefit ratio of ERCP should be considered given its potential harms, including risk for excessive delay in TPIAT.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES Pancreatogenic diabetes mellitus has been assumed to result from non-immune beta cell destruction when the pancreas is replaced by fibrotic tissue secondary to acute and chronic pancreatitis. We hypothesize that recurrent episodes of pancreatic inflammation may increase the risk for developing β-cell autoimmunity in susceptible individuals. METHODS We describe 11 patients who had both recurrent acute and/or chronic pancreatitis and type 1 diabetes (T1D) requiring insulin therapy. RESULTS All 11 patients had positive autoantibodies and 8 patients tested had minimal to undetectable (7/8) or moderate (1/8) stimulated C-peptide at 12 months after T1D onset. Three had biopsy confirmation of insulitis. CONCLUSIONS These cases lend support to the theory that pancreatitis may increase risk for T1D. We postulate that the pro-inflammatory conditions of pancreatitis may increase posttranslational protein modifications of β-cell antigens and neoepitope generation, which are potential initiating events for loss of β-cell self-tolerance.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The identification of genetic risk factors for chronic pancreatitis, such as PRSS1, CFTR and SPINK1, provides the opportunity to define key pathologic hallmarks and etiologic-specific changes. For example, pancreata from PRSS1 and CFTR patients exhibit progressive lipomatous atrophy without significant fibrosis. Considering the pathology of SPINK1-associated pancreatitis is ill-defined, we examined the pancreata of SPINK1 patients with chronic pancreatitis. METHODS Histologic sections after total pancreatectomy with islet autotransplantation and associated clinicopathologic data were collected from 28 patients with SPINK1 germline alterations. Clinical findings, germline data, anatomic anomalies and pathologic findings were descriptively evaluated. RESULTS Patients ranged in age from 5 to 48 years (median, 21.6 years) with abdominal pain between 2 and 25 years (median, 5.8 years). Most patients were SPINK1 heterozygous and 14 (50%) had co-occurring CFTR (n = 12) and CTRC (n = 2) mutations. Other pancreatitis risk factors included anatomic anomalies (n = 9) and tobacco use (n = 1). Overall, 24 (86%) patients had additional pancreatitis-associated germline alterations, SPINK1 homozygosity, anatomic anomalies or environmental factors. Examination of pancreata revealed a sequential pattern of exocrine parenchymal loss and replacement by prominent fibrosis, dependent on the duration of abdominal pain. No malignancies were identified, but low-grade pancreatic intraepithelial neoplasia was present for 2 cases. CONCLUSIONS Within this descriptive study, SPINK1-associated pancreatitis is characterized by parenchymal fibrosis and suggests divergent pathophysiologic mechanisms from PRSS1 and CFTR-associated pancreatitis. Moreover, SPINK1 patients frequently had additional etiologic factors that did not impact the development of pancreatic fibrosis and may implicate SPINK1 as a disease modifier gene.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Prothrombin Complex Concentrates (PCC) are prescribed for emergent warfarin reversal (EWR). The comparative effectiveness and safety among PCC products are not fully understood. METHODS Patients in an academic level one trauma center who received PCC3 or PCC4 for EWR were identified. Patient characteristics, PCC dose and time of dose, pre- and post-INR and time of measurement, fresh frozen plasma and vitamin K doses, and patient outcomes were collected. Patients whose pre-PCC International Normalized Ratio (INR) was > 6 h before PCC dose or the pre-post PCC INR was > 12 h were excluded. The primary outcome was achieving an INR ≤ 1.5 post PCC. Secondary outcomes were the change in INR over time, post PCC INR, thromboembolic events (TE), and death during hospital stay. Logistic regression modelled the primary outcome with and without a propensity score adjustment accounting for age, sex, actual body weight, dose, initial INR value, and time between INR measurements. Data are reported as median (IQR) or n (%) with p < 0.05 considered significant. RESULTS Eighty patients were included (PCC3 = 57, PCC4 = 23). More PCC4 patients achieved goal INR (87.0% vs. 31.6%, odds ratio (OR) = 14.4, 95% CI: 3.80-54.93, p < 0.001). This result remained true after adjusting for possible confounders (AOR = 10.7, 95% CI: 2.17-51.24, p < 0.001). The post-PCC INR was lower in the PCC4 group (1.3 (1.3-1.5) vs. 1.7 (1.5-2.0)). The INR change was greater for PCC4 (2.3 (1.3-3.3) vs. 1.1 (0.6-2.0), p = 0.003). Death during hospital stay (p = 0.52) and TE (p = 1.00) were not significantly different. CONCLUSIONS PCC4 was associated with a higher achievement of goal INR than PCC3. This relationship was observed in the unadjusted and propensity score adjusted results.

Abstract
The Igls criteria assess islet function after islet allotransplant, based on C-peptide, insulin use, hemoglobin A1c, and severe hypoglycemia. However, these criteria as currently defined cannot be applied to total pancreatectomy islet autotransplant (TPIAT) patients. We tested modified criteria for assessing islet function in a large cohort of TPIAT patients (n = 379). Metabolic outcomes were assessed. We assigned Auto-Igls class to each patient as able and evaluated the utility, validity, and perioperative risk factors of Auto-Igls at 1-year post-IAT. We tested the association of Auto-Igls with independent measures of islet graft function, specifically continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) data or acute C-peptide response to glucose (ACRglu) from intravenous glucose tolerance tests. An Auto-Igls class was assigned to 264 patients (69%). Among patients who could not be classified, most were missing exact insulin dose. Seventy-three percent of TPIAT recipients were classified as optimal or good at 1 year. The only significant predictor of Auto-Igls class was islet mass transplanted (P < 0.0001). Auto-Igls class was associated with percent time in range (70-140 mg/dl) on CGM (P = 0.02) and ACRglu (P < 0.0001). Modified Igls classification for IAT permits simple, comprehensive assessment of metabolic outcomes after TPIAT and is associated with other islet functional measures.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Advances in our understanding of total pancreatectomy with islet autotransplantation (TPIAT) have been made. We aimed to define indications and outcomes of TPIAT. METHODS Expert physician-scientists from North America, Asia, and Europe reviewed the literature to address six questions selected by the writing group as high priority topics. A consensus was reached by voting on statements generated from the review. RESULTS Consensus statements were voted upon with strong agreement reached that (Q1) TPIAT may improve quality of life, reduce pain and opioid use, and potentially reduce medical utilization; that (Q3) TPIAT offers glycemic benefit over TP alone; that (Q4) the main indication for TPIAT is disabling pain, in the absence of certain medical and psychological contraindications; and that (Q6) islet mass transplanted and other disease features may impact diabetes mellitus outcomes. Conditional agreement was reached that (Q2) the role of TPIAT for all forms of CP is not yet identified and that head-to-head comparative studies are lacking, and that (Q5) early surgery is likely to improve outcomes as compared to late surgery. CONCLUSIONS Agreement on TPIAT indications and outcomes has been reached through this working group. Further studies are needed to answer the long-term outcomes and maximize efforts to optimize patient selection.

Abstract
Background: Surgical research is potentially invasive, high-risk, and costly. Research that advances medical dogma must justify both its ends and its means. Although ethical questions do not always have simple answers, it is critically important for the clinician, researcher, and patient to approach these dilemmas and surgical research in a thoughtful, conscientious manner. Methods: We present four ethical issues in surgical research and discuss the opposing viewpoints. These topics were presented and discussed at the 39th Annual Meeting of the Surgical Infection Society as pro-con debates. The presenters of each opinion developed a succinct summary of their respective reviews for this publication. Results: The key subjects for these pro-con debates were: (1) Should patients be enrolled for time-sensitive surgical infection research using an opt-out or an opt-in strategy? (2) Should patients who are being enrolled in a randomized controlled trial (RCT) comparing surgery with a non-operative intervention pay the costs of their treatment arm? (3) Should the scientific community embrace open access journals as the future of scientific publishing? (4) Should the majority of funding go to clinical or basic science research? Important points were illustrated in each of the pro-con presentations and illustrated the difficulties that are facing the performance and payment of infection research in the future. Conclusions: Surgical research is ethically complex, with conflicting demands between individual patients, society, and healthcare economics. At present, there are no clear answers to these and the many other ethical issues facing research in the future. Answers will only come from continued robust dialogue among all stakeholders in surgical research.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES A selective therapy for pancreatitis is total pancreatectomy and islet autotransplantation. Outcomes and geographical variability of patients who had total pancreatectomy (TP) alone or total pancreatectomy with islet autotransplantation (TPIAT) were assessed. METHODS Data were obtained from the Healthcare Cost and Utilization Project National Inpatient Sample database. Weighed univariate and multivariate analyses were performed to determine the effect of measured variables on outcomes. RESULTS Between 2002 and 2013, there were 1006 TP and 825 TPIAT in patients with a diagnosis of chronic pancreatitis, and 1705 TP and 830 TPIAT for any diagnosis of pancreatitis. The majority of the TP and TPIAT were performed in larger urban hospitals. Costs were similar for TP and TPIAT for chronic pancreatitis but were lower for TPIAT compared with TP for any type of pancreatitis. The trend for TP and TPIAT was significant in all geographical areas during the study period. CONCLUSIONS There is an increasing trend of both TP and TPIAT. Certain groups are more likely to be offered TPIAT compared with TP alone. More data are needed to understand disparities and barriers to TPIAT, and long-term outcomes of TPIAT such as pain control and glucose intolerance need further study.

Abstract
BACKGROUND HIV is produced in lymphoid tissues (LT) and stored on the follicular dendritic cell network in LT. When antiretroviral therapy is started, plasma viremia decays in 2 phases; the first within days of starting therapy and the second over weeks. Raltegravir (RAL), an integrase inhibitor, has been associated with only a single rapid phase of decay, and we speculated this may be due to higher intracellular concentration (IC) of RAL in LT. We have previously measured suboptimal ICs of antiretroviral therapy agents in LT, which were associated with slower decay of both vRNA+ cells and the follicular dendritic cell network pool. SETTING Outpatient clinic at the Joint Clinical Research Center in Kampala, Uganda. METHODS We compared the rate of decay in LT in people starting RAL with those starting efavirenz (EFV). RESULTS There was no difference in the rate of virus decay in LT. The ratio of the ICs of RAL and EFV in lymph node to the concentration of drug that inhibits 95% of virus in blood was 1 log lower in lymph node for EFV and >3 logs lower for RAL. CONCLUSION These data further highlight the challenges of drug delivery to LT in HIV infection and demonstrate that RAL is not superior to EFV as judged by direct measurements of the source of virus in LT.

Abstract
Background: Our center initiated an electronic Sepsis Best Practice Alert (sBPA) protocol to aid in early sepsis detection and treatment. However, surgery alters peri-operative physiology, which may trigger an sBPA for noninfectious causes. This study aimed to provide early evaluation of automated sBPA utility in surgical patients. Methods: This study was a retrospective review of the outcomes of patients admitted to the University of Minnesota Medical Center (but not to the intensive care unit) from August 2015-March 2016 and compared how the sBPA performed in those having and not having surgery. An sBPA prompted nursing to draw blood for an immediate lactate assay if two modified systemic inflammatory response syndrome (mSIRS) criteria or three mSIRS criteria within 24 hours after surgery were met. Physicians were notified if the lactate concentration was >2 mmol/L. Further review was performed of data collected prospectively on the surgical patients. Results: A total of 10,335 patients were admitted (2,158 surgery and 8,177 non-surgery). Of these, 33% of the surgery patients and 35% of the patients not having surgery triggered sBPAs. In surgery patients, 13% of lactate concentrations were >2 mmol/L versus 25% in patients not having surgery. An sBPA was triggered more frequently after procedures with a wound class of 4 (5% vs. 2%), emergency operation (23% vs. 10%), and longer operations (280 min vs. 222 min (p < 0.05 for all). Surgery patients triggering sBPAs had longer hospital stays (9.6 vs. 4.4 days; p < 0.05), more surgical site infections (7% vs. 2%; p < 0.05), and a similar mortality rate (3% vs. 4%; p = 0.15) than those who did not trigger an sBPA. Conclusion: An sBPA fired in a third of all inpatients, and an sBPA that prompted lactate measurements was less likely to be abnormal in surgery patients than in those not having surgery. There was no difference in the mortality rate in surgical patients who fired and those who did not; however, the sBPA did identify patients with a more complicated post-operative course. Further refinements of the electronic trigger should increase BPA specificity.

Abstract
Vaccine responses vary by geographic location. We have previously described how HIV-associated inflammation leads to fibrosis of secondary lymph nodes (LNs) and T cell depletion. We hypothesized that other infections may cause LN inflammation and fibrosis, in a process similar to that seen in HIV infection, which may lead to T cell depletion and affect vaccine responses. We studied LNs of individuals from Kampala, Uganda, before and after yellow fever vaccination (YFV) and found fibrosis in LNs that was similar to that seen in HIV infection. We found blunted antibody responses to YFV that correlated to the amount of LN fibrosis and loss of T cells, including T follicular helper cells. These data suggest that LN fibrosis is not limited to HIV infection and may be associated with impaired immunologic responses to vaccines. This may have an impact on vaccine development, especially for infectious diseases prevalent in the developing world.

Abstract
Blood is an ideal body fluid for the discovery or monitoring of diagnostic and prognostic protein biomarkers. However, discovering robust biomarkers requires the analysis of large numbers of samples to appropriately represent interindividual variability. To address this analytical challenge, we established a high-throughput and cost-effective proteomics workflow for accurate and comprehensive proteomics at an analytical depth applicable for clinical studies. For validation, we processed 1 μL each from 62 plasma samples in 96-well plates and analyzed the product by quantitative data-independent acquisition liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry; the data were queried using feature quantification with Spectronaut. To show the applicability of our workflow to serum, we analyzed a unique set of samples from 48 chronic pancreatitis patients, pre and post total pancreatectomy with islet autotransplantation (TPIAT) surgery. We identified 16 serum proteins with statistically significant abundance alterations, which represent a molecular signature distinct from that of chronic pancreatitis. In summary, we established a cost-efficient high-throughput workflow for comprehensive proteomics using PVDF-membrane-based digestion that is robust, automatable, and applicable to small plasma and serum volumes, e.g., finger stick. Application of this plasma/serum proteomics workflow resulted in the first mapping of the molecular implications of TPIAT on the serum proteome.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pancreatic fat may adversely affect β-cell mass and function, possibly via local release of non-esterified fatty acids, and proinflammatory and vasoactive factors released by adipose tissue. However, the effects of intrapancreatic fat in patients with chronic pancreatitis undergoing total pancreatectomy with islet autotransplantation (TPIAT) have not been studied. This study investigated whether pancreatic fatty infiltration has a negative effect on metabolic outcomes following TPIAT. METHODS The association between pancreatic fatty infiltration and diabetes outcomes was studied in 79 patients with low or high pancreatic fat content (LPF [n = 53] and HPF [n = 26], respectively) undergoing TPIAT. Pancreatic fatty infiltration was stratified using gross examinations during isolation and validated with histomorphometry of archived histology samples. RESULTS Fat area percentage in histology samples differed significantly between the LPF and HPF groups (2.1% ± 4.3% vs 10.6% ± 8.9%, respectively; P = 0.0009). Insulin dependence was more common in the HPF group, whereas more patients in the LPF group were insulin independent or on partial insulin supplementation at 1 year (P = 0.022). Furthermore, 1- and 2-h glucose concentrations during mixed-meal tolerance tests were significantly higher in the HPF group (P = 0.032 and 0.027, respectively) and β-scores (a composite measure of islet function and metabolic control) were significantly greater in the LPF than HPF group (6.1 ± 1.7 vs 4.6 ± 2.0; P = 0.034). CONCLUSIONS Patients with HPF were more likely to be insulin dependent, with higher postprandial glucose excursion, suggesting that intrapancreatic fat may lead to β-cell dysfunction with detrimental effects on diabetes outcomes after TPIAT.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES Total pancreatectomy with islet autotransplantation (TPIAT) is considered for managing chronic pancreatitis in selected patients when medical and endoscopic interventions have not provided adequate relief from debilitating pain. Although more centers are performing TPIAT, we lack large, multi-center studies to guide decisions about selecting candidates for and timing of TPIAT. METHODS Multiple centers across the United States (9 to date) performing TPIAT are prospectively enrolling patients undergoing TPIAT for chronic pancreatitis into the Prospective Observational Study of TPIAT (POST), a NIDDK funded study with a goal of accruing 450 TPIAT recipients. Baseline data include participant phenotype, pancreatitis history, and medical/psychological comorbidities from medical records, participant interview, and participant self-report (Medical Outcomes Survey Short Form-12, EQ-5D, andPROMIS inventories for pain interference, depression, and anxiety). Outcome measures are collected to at least 1 year after TPIAT, including the same participant questionnaires, visual analog pain scale, pain interference scores, opioid requirements, insulin requirements, islet graft function, and hemoglobin A1c. Health resource utilization data are collected for a cost-effectiveness analysis. Biorepository specimens including urine, serum/plasma, genetic material (saliva and blood), and pancreas tissue are collected for future study. CONCLUSIONS This ongoing multicenter research study will enroll and follow TPIAT recipients, aiming to evaluate patient selection and timing for TPIAT to optimize pain relief, quality of life, and diabetes outcomes, and to measure the procedure's cost-effectiveness. A biorepository is also established for future ancillary studies.

Abstract
AIM Islet autotransplantation (IAT) is considered a 'non-immune' model of islet transplant, with no risk for autoimmune-mediated beta cell loss, but we have previously observed de novo type 1 diabetes in one total pancreatectomy with islet autotransplantation (TPIAT) recipient. We aimed to investigate the clinical significance of glutamic acid decarboxylase antibodies (GADA), as a sensitive marker for autoimmune diabetes mellitus (DM), in patients with chronic pancreatitis undergoing TPIAT. METHODS We identified 9 patients undergoing TPIAT with elevated GADA pre-TPIAT (8 non-diabetic and 1 with C-peptide positive DM), otherwise demographically similar to GADA negative TPIAT recipients (n=341). Metabolic and clinical measures related to islet cell function were recorded both before and after TPIAT. RESULTS None of the 9 TPIAT patients achieved insulin independence after surgery, vs. 33% of GADA negative patients (n=318 with 1-yr follow-up). The two patients with the highest titters of GADA (>250 IU/mL) both experienced islet graft failure, despite normoglycaemia pre-TPIAT and high islet mass transplanted (5276 and 9378 IEQ per kg), with elevated HbA1c levels post-TPIAT (8.3%, 9.6%). The remaining 7 seven were insulin dependent with partial graft function and HbA1c levels <7%. CONCLUSION Insulin dependence was more frequent in 9 patients with elevated GADA prior to TPIAT than in GADA negative TPIAT recipients, with graft failure in 2 cases. We speculate that beta-cell autoimmunity may occur in a small subset of TPIAT recipients and that beta cell antibody testing prior to TPIAT may be warranted to identify individuals at higher risk for insulin dependence.

Abstract
Hemorrhagic shock, caused by trauma, is a leading cause of preventable death. A combination treatment of d-β-hydroxybutyrate (BHB) and melatonin (MLT), in dimethyl sulfoxide - water, increased survival. A freeze-dried BHB-MLT formulation, with a short reconstitution time, has been developed. This intravenous formulation, prepared with an aqueous vehicle, completely eliminated dimethyl sulfoxide, thereby avoiding the potential problems associated with this solvent. The poor aqueous solubility of MLT necessitated the use of polyvinylpyrrolidine (PVP) as a complexing agent. Thus the prelyophilization solution contained BHB (2 M), MLT (21.5 mM) and PVP (40 mM). Using a combination of low-temperature X-ray diffractometry and thermal analysis, the lyophilization process parameters were optimized. Infra-red spectra revealed hydrogen bonding interaction between PVP and MLT, while BHB crystallized as BHB.0.25 H2O in the final lyophile. The formulation improved survival in a rat model of hemorrhagic shock. Based on the increase in rate of survival and longer survival time compared to untreated animals, we conclude that this formulation can serve as a promising first line of treatment for hemorrhagic shock.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Armed conflicts can result in humanitarian crises and have major impacts on civilians, of whom children represent a significant proportion. Usual pediatric medical care is often disrupted and trauma resulting from war-related injuries is often devastating. High pediatric mortality rates are thus experienced in these ravaged medical environments. INTRODUCTION Using simple communication technology to provide real-time management recommendations from highly trained pediatric personnel can provide substantive clinical support and have a significant impact on pediatric morbidity and mortality. MATERIALS AND METHODS We implemented a "Tele-Pediatric Intensive Care" program (Tele-PICU) to provide real-time management consultation for critically ill and injured pediatric patients in Syria with intensive care needs. RESULTS Over the course of 7 months, 19 cases were evaluated, ranging in age from 1 day to 11 years. Consultation questions addressed a wide range of critical care needs. Five patients are known to have survived, three were transferred, five died, and six outcomes were unknown. DISCUSSION Based on this limited undertaking with its positive impact on survival, further development of Tele-PICU-based efforts with attention to implementation and barriers identified through this program is desirable. CONCLUSION Even limited Tele-PICU can provide timely and potentially lifesaving assistance to pediatric care providers. Future efforts are encouraged.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Treatment with a combination of D-β-hydroxybutyrate (BHB) and melatonin (M) improves survival in hemorrhagic shock models. Our objective was to find the most effective melatonin concentration in combination with 4 molar BHB (4 M BHB). Survival and markers of organ injury were analyzed in pigs exposed to pulmonary contusion, liver crush injury, and hemorrhagic shock and treated with lactated Ringer's solution; 4 M BHB/43 mM M; 4 M BHB/20 mM M; 4 M BHB/10 mM M; 4 M BHB/4.3 mM M; or 4 M BHB/0.43 mM M. This work is an extension of a previously published research study. RESULTS Survival was highest in pigs receiving 4 M BHB/43 mM M (13/14), followed by lactated Ringer's solution (11/16) and BHB/M with decreased melatonin concentrations (4 M BHB/20 mM M 3/6, 4 M BHB/10 mM M 2/6, 4 M BHB/4.3 mM M 3/6, 4 M BHB/0.43 mM M 1/6, p = 0.011). High mortality was associated with increases in serum lactate, higher liver and muscle injury markers and decreases in PaO2:FiO2 ratios. Our study indicates that treatment with 4 M BHB and melatonin concentrations below 43 mM lack the survival benefit observed from 4 M BHB/43 mM melatonin in pigs experiencing hemorrhagic shock and polytrauma.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The minimally invasive step-up approach for treatment of walled off necrosis (WON) involves drainage followed by later necrosectomy as needed, and is superior to primary surgical necrosectomy. Reported series of endoscopic transluminal necrosectomy include highly selected patients. We report outcomes of a large series of patients with WON managed by an algorithm based on an endoscopically centered step-up approach. METHODS Consecutive patients with necrotizing pancreatitis from 2009 to 2014, with intervention only for infected or persistently symptomatic WON. The primary approach involved endoscopic transluminal drainage plus minus necrosectomy whenever feasible, with percutaneous catheter drainage (PCD) plus minus sinus tract endoscopy if not feasible or sufficient. Surgery was reserved for failures of the step up approach. RESULTS Of 109 consecutive patients with necrotizing pancreatitis, intervention was required in 83, including endoscopic transluminal drainage in 73 (88%) (alone in 49 and combined with PCD in 24), and PCD alone in 10 (12%). 64 (77%) of the 83 patients required endoscopic transluminal and/or sinus tract necrosectomy. Adverse events occurred in 11 (13%). Three patients (4%) failed step up approach and required open surgical necrosectomy. All-cause mortality occurred in 6 (7%) of 83 patients after intervention, including 2 of 3 requiring surgery. CONCLUSIONS An algorithm based step-up approach for interventions in necrotizing pancreatitis using primarily endoscopic techniques with adjunctive percutaneous approaches as needed resulted in favorable outcomes with small numbers proceeding to open surgery, and with acceptable rates of major complications and mortality. A purely endoscopic transluminal approach was feasible in approximately 60% of patients requiring intervention in this series.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients undergoing total pancreatectomy and islet cell autotransplant (TPIAT) for treatment of pancreatitis are at risk for complications of over and under resuscitation. We hypothesized that using a goal directed fluid therapy (GDFT) protocol might impact clinical outcomes. MATERIALS AND METHODS A consecutive series of adult patients undergoing TPIAT were managed intraoperatively using either standard fluid therapy (SFT, n = 44) or GDFT (n = 23) as part of a pilot study between January 2013 and May 2015. Patient characteristics, intraoperative, and postoperative data were recorded prospectively, then retrospectively analyzed for differences between the groups. RESULTS The GDFT group had lower total fluid resuscitation (3,240 cc vs 5,173 cc, p < 0.0001) and transfusion requirements (1.0 cc/kg vs 3.3 cc/kg, p = 0.050) compared to the SFT group. The pre to postop nadir hemoglobin change was significantly less for GDFT (4.2 vs 5.1 gm/dl, p = 0.021) despite less transfusion. CONCLUSIONS Compared to SFT, using an intraoperative GDFT protocol in TPIAT patients was associated with significantly decreased intraoperative fluid resuscitation, blood transfusion and less postoperative dilutional anemia, without any difference in complications of underresuscitation. This pilot study suggests that GDFT is likely safe and further investigation is warranted.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Cholecystectomy is a common surgical procedure. The presence of common bile duct stones complicates treatment, often requiring a second procedure for stone retrieval. For such patients, endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) provides adequate therapy, and can be performed before, after, or at the same time as cholecystectomy. In 2013, duodenoscopes were implicated by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in transmission of carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae. In this study, we sought to determine if the addition of ERCP to cholecystectomy was associated with higher rates of surgical site infections and microbial resistance. HYPOTHESIS Adding ERCP to cholecystectomy increases the SSI rate. METHODS For this retrospective review, we used the SSI surveillance database at our tertiary-care academic hospital. Cholecystectomy cases between 2010 and 2015 were included in the analysis. SSI was diagnosed using criteria of CDC's National Healthcare Safety Network (NHSN). We applied a logistic regression model to our data (SAS Studio software, v3.4, Enterprise Edition). RESULTS Our 6-year study period included 2201 cholecystectomies. The SSI rate was 4.1 times higher for patients who underwent open cholecystectomy as compared with laparoscopic cholecystectomy (95% CI 1.61-10.24). When adjusted for wound class and procedure type, the SSI rate was significantly higher for patients who underwent ERCP within 60 days before cholecystectomy (P = 0.04; OR 2.2; CI 1.04-4.49). Rates of resistant pathogens were significantly higher in patients who underwent ERCP in addition to cholecystectomy (1.1% vs. 0.2%, P = 0.02, Fisher's exact test). CONCLUSIONS ERCP performed in the same setting as cholecystectomy carries no increased risk of SSI and should be the treatment of choice in patients with choledocholithiasis. ERCP performed separately within 60 days before cholecystectomy doubles the risk of SSI. Contaminated equipment might play a role, but other factors are likely at play, and should be taken into account when selecting treatment pathways for patients with choledocholithiasis.
