Abstract
The recent publication by Azzi and colleagues puts forth the argument that only RRR-α-tocopherol should be considered as vitamin E from a physiological point of view. They base their argument primarily on the assertion that only this form has been used to treat stark vitamin E deficiency in humans (known as AVED, or Ataxia with Vitamin E Deficiency). Azzi et al. also argue that other chemically similar molecules, such as tocopherols other than α-tocopherol and tocotrienols do not provide vitamin E activity. Azzi and colleagues are correct on this second point. An investigation into the biological activities of vitamin E, and the mechanisms behind these activities, confirms that physiological vitamin E activity is limited to certain α-tocopherol forms. However, it is also clear that these activities are not restricted only to the RRR-form but include other 2R-forms as well. Indeed, the α-tocopherol transfer protein (α-TTP), which is critical to mediate vitamin E trafficking and biological activity, and genetic defects of which lead to vitamin E deficiency, binds well to all 2R-forms of α-tocopherol. Furthermore, both RRR-α-tocopherol and the other 2R-forms are maintained in human plasma and distributed to tissues and organs, whereas the 2S-stereoisomers are excreted quickly. As such, in recent years the definition of vitamin E including both 2R- and RRR-α-tocopherol has gained both broad scientific and regulatory acceptance. Consistent with this understanding, we provide evidence that AVED has indeed been treated successfully with forms in addition to RRR-α-tocopherol, again arguing against the restriction of the definition to RRR-α-tocopherol only. Finally, we provide evidence against any safety concerns utilizing the currently accepted definition of vitamin E.

Abstract
Under climate change, model ensembles suggest that declines in phytoplankton biomass amplify into greater reductions at higher trophic levels, with serious implications for fisheries and carbon storage. However, the extent and mechanisms of this trophic amplification vary greatly among models, and validation is problematic. In situ size spectra offer a novel alternative, comparing biomass of small and larger organisms to quantify the net efficiency of energy transfer through natural food webs that are already challenged with multiple climate change stressors. Our global compilation of pelagic size spectrum slopes supports trophic amplification empirically, independently from model simulations. Thus, even a modest (16%) decline in phytoplankton this century would magnify into a 38% decline in supportable biomass of fish within the intensively-fished mid-latitude ocean. We also show that this amplification stems not from thermal controls on consumers, but mainly from temperature or nutrient controls that structure the phytoplankton baseline of the food web. The lack of evidence for direct thermal effects on size structure contrasts with most current thinking, based often on more acute stress experiments or shorter-timescale responses. Our synthesis of size spectra integrates these short-term dynamics, revealing the net efficiency of food webs acclimating and adapting to climatic stressors.

Abstract
Relationships among carnivore species are complex, potentially switching from competition to facilitation on a context-dependent basis. Negative associations are predicted to increase with latitude, due to limited resources emphasising competition and/or intra-guild predation. Accordingly, a stronger negative correlation between large- and meso-carnivore abundances should be expected at higher latitudes, with a substantial spatio-temporal partitioning favouring interspecific coexistence. Human presence may influence spatio-temporal relationships between (meso)carnivore species, as it can be perceived as a risk factor, but anthropogenic food can also provide an important additional food resource. Using camera-trap data, we studied the spatio-temporal associations between two of the most widespread carnivores in Europe, i.e., the red fox and wolf. We compared their monthly/daily spatio-temporal partitioning between two different landscapes: Białowieża Primeval Forest (Poland) and the Mediterranean Maremma Regional Park (Italy). We predicted a stronger interspecific partitioning, as well as more attraction of red foxes to humans in the northern site (Poland). Temporal activity patterns of the two carnivores overlapped in both sites, and their detection rates were positively associated, even though in weaker way in Poland. We observed a positive spatial association of red foxes with human activity in Białowieża, but not in Maremma. This association occurred only at a monthly temporal scale and disappeared at a daily scale, suggesting some disturbance in the shorter term. Our results provided partial support to our predictions and suggest that, despite the ecological differences between our study areas, only weak differences in wolf-fox relations were observed, suggesting that red fox responses to wolves may be relatively comparable over large spatial scales.

Abstract
Microalgae are the main source of the omega-3 fatty acids eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), essential for the healthy development of most marine and terrestrial fauna including humans. Inverse correlations of algal EPA and DHA proportions (% of total fatty acids) with temperature have led to suggestions of a warming-induced decline in the global production of these biomolecules and an enhanced importance of high latitude organisms for their provision. The cold Arctic Ocean is a potential hotspot of EPA and DHA production, but consequences of global warming are unknown. Here, we combine a full-seasonal EPA and DHA dataset from the Central Arctic Ocean (CAO), with results from 13 previous field studies and 32 cultured algal strains to examine five potential climate change effects; ice algae loss, community shifts, increase in light, nutrients, and temperature. The algal EPA and DHA proportions were lower in the ice-covered CAO than in warmer peripheral shelf seas, which indicates that the paradigm of an inverse correlation of EPA and DHA proportions with temperature may not hold in the Arctic. We found no systematic differences in the summed EPA and DHA proportions of sea ice versus pelagic algae, and in diatoms versus non-diatoms. Overall, the algal EPA and DHA proportions varied up to four-fold seasonally and 10-fold regionally, pointing to strong light and nutrient limitations in the CAO. Where these limitations ease in a warming Arctic, EPA and DHA proportions are likely to increase alongside increasing primary production, with nutritional benefits for a non-ice-associated food web.

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

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Esophagectomy is the mainstay of esophageal cancer treatment, but anastomotic insufficiency related morbidity and mortality remain challenging for patient outcome. Therefore, the objective of this work was to optimize anastomotic technique and gastric conduit perfusion with hyperspectral imaging (HSI) for total minimally invasive esophagectomy (MIE) with linear stapled anastomosis. MATERIAL AND METHODS A live porcine model (n = 58) for MIE was used with gastric conduit formation and simulation of linear stapled side-to-side esophagogastrostomy. Four main experimental groups differed in stapling length (3 vs. 6 cm) and simulation of anastomotic position on the conduit (cranial vs. caudal). Tissue oxygenation around the anastomotic simulation site was evaluated using HSI and was validated with histopathology. RESULTS The tissue oxygenation (ΔStO2) after the anastomotic simulation remained constant only for the short stapler in caudal position (-0.4 ± 4.4%, n.s.) while it was impaired markedly in the other groups (short-cranial: -15.6 ± 11.5%, p = 0.0002; long-cranial: -20.4 ± 7.6%, p = 0.0126; long-caudal: -16.1 ± 9.4%, p < 0.0001). Tissue samples from avascular stomach as measured by HSI showed correspondent eosinophilic pre-necrotic changes in 35.7 ± 9.7% of the surface area. CONCLUSION Tissue oxygenation at the site of anastomotic simulation of the gastric conduit during MIE is influenced by stapling technique. Optimal oxygenation was achieved with a short stapler (3 cm) and sufficient distance of the simulated anastomosis to the cranial end of the gastric conduit. HSI tissue deoxygenation corresponded to histopathologic necrotic tissue changes. The experimental model with HSI and ML allow for systematic optimization of gastric conduit perfusion and anastomotic technique while clinical translation will have to be proven.

Abstract
This article presents metagenome-assembled genomes (MAGs) for both eukaryotic and prokaryotic organisms originating from the Arctic and Atlantic oceans, along with gene prediction and functional annotation for MAGs from both domains. Eleven samples from the chlorophyll-a maximum layer of the surface ocean were collected during two cruises in 2012; six from the Arctic in June-July on ARK-XXVII/1 (PS80), and five from the Atlantic in November on ANT-XXIX/1 (PS81). Sequencing and assembly was carried out by the Joint Genome Institute (JGI), who provide annotation of the assembled sequences, and 122 MAGs for prokaryotic organisms. A subsequent binning process identified 21 MAGs for eukaryotic organisms, mostly identified as Mamiellophyceae or Bacillariophyceae. The data for each MAG includes sequences in FASTA format, and tables of functional annotation of genes. For eukaryotic MAGs, transcript and protein sequences for predicted genes are available. A spreadsheet is provided summarising quality measures and taxonomic classifications for each MAG. These data provide draft genomes for uncultured marine microbes, including some of the first MAGs for polar eukaryotes, and can provide reference genetic data for these environments, or used in genomics-based comparison between environments.

Abstract
Treatment of food-producing animals with veterinary medicinal products (VMPs) can result in residues in foodstuffs (e.g. eggs, meat, milk, or honey) representing a potential consumer health risk. To ensure consumer safety, worldwide regulatory concepts for setting safe limits for residues of VMPs e.g. as tolerances (US) or maximum residue limits (MRLs, EU) are used. Based on these limits so-called withdrawal periods (WP) are determined. A WP represents the minimum period of time required between the last administration of the VMP and the marketing of foodstuff. Usually, WPs are estimated using regression analysis based on residue studies. With high statistical confidence (usually 95% in the EU and 99% in the US) the residues in almost all treated animals (usually 95%) have to be below MRL when edible produce is harvested. Here, uncertainties from both sampling and biological variability are taken into account but uncertainties of measurement associated with the analytical test methods are not systematically considered. This paper describes a simulation experiment to investigate the extent to which relevant sources of measurement uncertainty (accuracy and precision) can impact the length of WPs. A set of real residue depletion data was artificially 'contaminated' with measurement uncertainty related to permitted ranges for accuracy and precision. The results show that both accuracy and precision had a noticeable effect on the overall WP. Due consideration of sources of measurement uncertainty may improve the robustness, quality and reliability of calculations upon which regulatory decisions on consumer safety of residues are based.

Abstract
Linelike features in TeV γ rays constitute a "smoking gun" for TeV-scale particle dark matter and new physics. Probing the Galactic Center region with ground-based Cherenkov telescopes enables the search for TeV spectral features in immediate association with a dense dark matter reservoir at a sensitivity out of reach for satellite γ-ray detectors, and direct detection and collider experiments. We report on 223 hours of observations of the Galactic Center region with the MAGIC stereoscopic telescope system reaching γ-ray energies up to 100 TeV. We improved the sensitivity to spectral lines at high energies using large-zenith-angle observations and a novel background modeling method within a maximum-likelihood analysis in the energy domain. No linelike spectral feature is found in our analysis. Therefore, we constrain the cross section for dark matter annihilation into two photons to ⟨σv⟩≲5×10^{-28} cm^{3} s^{-1} at 1 TeV and ⟨σv⟩≲1×10^{-25} cm^{3} s^{-1} at 100 TeV, achieving the best limits to date for a dark matter mass above 20 TeV and a cuspy dark matter profile at the Galactic Center. Finally, we use the derived limits for both cuspy and cored dark matter profiles to constrain supersymmetric wino models.

Abstract
Zooplankton are major consumers of phytoplankton primary production in marine ecosystems. As such, they represent a critical link for energy and matter transfer between phytoplankton and bacterioplankton to higher trophic levels and play an important role in global biogeochemical cycles. In this Review, we discuss key responses of zooplankton to ocean warming, including shifts in phenology, range, and body size, and assess the implications to the biological carbon pump and interactions with higher trophic levels. Our synthesis highlights key knowledge gaps and geographic gaps in monitoring coverage that need to be urgently addressed. We also discuss an integrated sampling approach that combines traditional and novel techniques to improve zooplankton observation for the benefit of monitoring zooplankton populations and modelling future scenarios under global changes.

Abstract
Fifty-four multiparous beef cows with calves were used to evaluate the effects of Mo source (feed or water) on reproduction, mineral status, and performance over two cow-calf production cycles (553 days). Cows were stratified by age, body weight, liver Cu, and Mo status and were then randomly assigned to one of six treatment groups. Treatments were (1) negative control (NC; basal diet with no supplemental Mo or Cu), (2) positive control (NC + Cu; 3 mg of supplemental Cu/kg DM), (3) NC + 500 µg Mo/L from Na2MoO4·2H2O supplied in drinking water, (4) NC + 1000 µg Mo/L of Na2MoO4·2H2O supplied in drinking water, (5) NC + Mo 1000-water + 3 mg of supplemental Cu/kg DM, and (6) NC + 3.0 mg of supplemental Mo/kg diet DM from Na2MoO4·2H2O. Animals were allowed ad libitum access to both harvested grass hay (DM basis: 6.6% crude protein; 0.15% S, 6.7 mg Cu/kg, 2.4 mg Mo/kg) and water throughout the experiment. Calves were weaned at approximately 6 months of age each year. Dietary Cu concentration below 10.0 mg Cu/kg DM total diet reduced liver and plasma Cu concentrations to values indicative of a marginal Cu deficiency in beef cows. However, no production parameters measured in this experiment were affected by treatment. Results suggest that Mo supplemented in water or feed at the concentrations used in this experiment had minimal impact on Cu status and overall performance.

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

Abstract
Background Since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, children have been mentally and physically burdened, particularly due to school closures, with an associated loss of learning. Therefore, efficient testing strategies with high sensitivity are necessary to keep schools open. Apart from individual rapid antigen testing, various methods have been investigated, such as PCR-based pool-testing of nasopharyngeal swabs, gargle, or saliva samples. To date, previous validation studies have found the PCR-based saliva swab pool testing method to be an effective screening method, however, the acceptability and feasibility of a widespread implementation in the school-setting among stakeholders has not been comprehensively evaluated. Methods In this pilot study, SARS-CoV-2 saliva swab pool testing of up to 15 swabs per pool was conducted in ten primary and special schools in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania, Germany, over a period of one month. Thereafter, parents, teachers and school principals of the participating schools as well as the participating laboratories were surveyed about the feasibility and acceptability of this method, its large-scale implementation and challenges. Data were analyzed quantitatively and qualitatively. Results During the study period, 1,630 saliva swab pools were analyzed, of which 22 tested SARS-CoV-2 positive (1.3%). A total of N = 315 participants took part in the survey. Across all groups, the saliva swab pool testing method was perceived as more child-friendly (>87%), convenient (>82%), and easier (>81%) compared to rapid antigen testing by an anterior nasal swab. Over 80% of all participants favored widespread, regular use of the saliva swab method. Conclusion In school settings in particular, a high acceptability of the test method is crucial for a successful SARS-CoV-2 surveillance strategy. All respondents clearly preferred the saliva swab method, which can be used safely without complications in children six years of age and older. Hurdles and suggestions for improvement of an area-wide implementation were outlined.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Frailty is expressed by a reduction in physical capacity, mobility, muscle strength, and endurance. (Pre-)frailty is present in up to 42% of the older surgical population, with an increased risk for peri- and postoperative complications. Consequently, these patients often suffer from a delayed or limited recovery, loss of autonomy and quality of life, and a decrease in functional and cognitive capacities. Since frailty is modifiable, prehabilitation may improve the physiological reserves of patients and reduce the care dependency 12 months after surgery. METHODS Patients ≥ 70 years old scheduled for elective surgery or intervention will be recruited in this multicenter, randomized controlled study, with a target of 1400 participants with an allocation ratio of 1:1. The intervention consists of (1) a shared decision-making process with the patient, relatives, and an interdisciplinary and interprofessional team and (2) a 3-week multimodal, individualized prehabilitation program including exercise therapy, nutritional intervention, mobility or balance training, and psychosocial interventions and medical assessment. The frequency of the supervised prehabilitation is 5 times/week for 3 weeks. The primary endpoint is defined as the level of care dependency 12 months after surgery or intervention. DISCUSSION Prehabilitation has been proven to be effective for different populations, including colorectal, transplant, and cardiac surgery patients. In contrast, evidence for prehabilitation in older, frail patients has not been clearly established. To the best of our knowledge, this is currently the largest prehabilitation study on older people with frailty undergoing general elective surgery. TRIAL REGISTRATION ClinicalTrials.gov NCT04418271 .

Abstract
BackgroundPatients with immune-mediated inflammatory diseases (IMID), particularly if treated with B-cell depleting therapies, show reduced humoral responses to SARS-CoV-2 vaccines and increased risk of severe COVID-19 (1,2). Since pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) with monoclonal antibodies against SARS-CoV-2 proved effective in preventing infection and COVID-19 (3) in the general population, PrEP could be used for passive immunization of vaccine-refractory patients with IMIDs.ObjectivesTo evaluate the persistence of serum and salivary anti-SARS-CoV-2 IgG antibodies in vaccine-refractory patients with IMID after PrEP with casirivimab/imdevimab. Secondary outcomes were safety, SARS-CoV-2 infection, and adverse COVID-19 outcomes.MethodsWe performed a longitudinal analysis on anti-SARS-CoV-2 IgG titers in IMID patients who received a PrEP with 1200 mg of subcutaneous casirivimab/imdevimab due to high infection risk, as they had not developed an adequate humoral response at least 21 days after three COVID-19 vaccinations (Table 1). Serum and salivary anti-SARS-CoV-2 Spike IgG were quantified by ELISA (EUROIMMUN, Lübeck, Germany) before PrEP and after 1, 14, and 30 days. IgG levels are given as antibody ratios by dividing the optical density of the sample by that of the calibrator. A cutoff of ≥1.1 was considered positive. Safety as well as polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection and adverse COVID-19 outcomes (hospitalization, mechanical ventilation, death) after PrEP were recorded.Table 1.Baseline characteristics.N26Age, mean (SD)54 (14)Sex, n (%)Female15 (57.7)Male39 (42.3)Diagnosis, n (%)ANCA-associated vasculitis10 (38.5)Rheumatoid arthritis6 (23.1)Immunoglobulin deficiency4 (15.4)Systemic sclerosis2 (7.7)Psoriatic arthritis1 (3.8)Systemic Lupus Erythematosus1 (3.8)Non-infectious Uveitis1 (3.8)Multiple sclerosis1 (3.8)IgG4-related disease1 (3.8)Autoinflammatory syndrome1 (3.8)CD20-depletionRituximab, n (%)22 (84.6)Other therapies, n (%)Methotrexate6 (23.1)Immunoglobulins4 (15.4)Mycophenolate1 (3.8)Infliximab1 (3.8)CD19+ lymphocytes/mm3, median (IQR)0 (0-9)Serum total IgG, median (IQR)894 (745-987)SD, standard deviation; IQR, interquartile range; ANCA, anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies.ResultsWe obtained 92 serum and 75 saliva samples from 26 participants at four consecutive timepoints (Figure 1). Anti-SARS-CoV-2 IgG titers were observed in serum and saliva samples of all participants from day 1 and throughout 30 days after PrEP independently of diagnosis, therapy, total IgG, and peripheral CD19+ B-cells. Serum IgG increased rapidly at day 1 and plateaued from day 14 to 30 (Figure 1A), reaching similar levels as seen in healthy subjects after full vaccination (1), while saliva IgG increased steadily from administration up to day 14 and plateaued at day 30 (Figure 1B). No side effects were reported. Five patients (19.2%) had a close contact with a SARS-CoV-2-infected person, after which all but one remained asymptomatic and with a negative PCR test. The patient who tested positive developed mild COVID-19 with fever and cough.Figure 1.Temporal pattern and distribution of serum (A) and salivary (B) anti-SARS-CoV-2 IgG levels.Results from individual participants are represented as line (top) and scatter plots (bottom). Horizontal lines represent median values, the dotted horizontal line represents the positivity cutoff of 1.1.** p =0.0082; *** p <0.001; **** p <0.0001. mAbs: monoclonal antibodies.ConclusionSARS-CoV-2 PrEP induces stable serum and salivary antibody levels in IMID patients who did not respond to COVID-19 vaccination, regardless of pre-existing clinical and serological features. In IMID, PrEP with casirivimab/imdevimab is safe and has the potential to prevent infection and severe COVID-19.References[1]Simon D, et al. Ann rheum dis. 2021;80:1312-1316.[2]Fagni F et al, et al.

Abstract
BackgroundLongitudinal data describing real-world systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) disease characteristics, health care resource utilization (HCRU), and costs associated with flares in Germany are limited.ObjectivesTo evaluate the clinical characteristics of patients with SLE and estimate the impact of flares on HCRU and costs in a cohort of adults with SLE in Germany.MethodsCHaracteristics and impact of flares on clinicAl and econoMic OutcoMes In patients with systemic Lupus Erythematosus: a German Claims Database Study (CHAMOMILE) was an observational, retrospective cohort study. Adult patients with SLE were identified from the German Betriebskrankenkassen health insurance fund database between 1 July 2010 and 31 December 2013, and followed for up to 9 years. Baseline period was defined as the first year since the first quarter with the earliest SLE diagnosis during the identification period, including this quarter. Resource utilization measures included number of hospitalizations, duration of stay, and associated costs per person-year (PY) by follow-up year for patient subgroups defined by flare exposure (no, mild, or moderate/severe flares) during baseline. Cost measures included total PY costs in flare-exposure subgroups.ResultsOf 2088 patients included in the study, the mean (SD) age was 51.4 (16.1) years and 1767 (84.6%) were female. The most common SLE manifestations were cutaneous (66.8%), osteoarticular (28.7%), and vascular (23.0%). Patients were receiving treatment with glucocorticoids (54.8%), antimalarials (40.2%), nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (39.1%), and/or immunosuppressants (32.7%). During the baseline period, 750 patients (35.9%) experienced moderate/severe flares, 622 (29.8%) experienced mild flares, and 716 (34.3%) experienced no flares. Patients with no flares or mild flares during the baseline period had similar costs, and a similar number and duration of hospital stays per PY, which remained consistent from baseline up to 9 years of follow-up. Patients with moderate/severe flares during the baseline period had 2- to 3-fold higher hospital costs, 1- to 2-fold more hospital stays, and hospital stays that were 2-fold longer in duration, compared with the no-flares or mild-flares groups during baseline and each year of follow-up (Table 1). During the baseline period, annual total costs were more than 2-fold greater for patients with moderate/severe flares (€11,048/PY) than patients with mild (€5148/PY) or no flares (€4734/PY). In all subsequent years, costs for patients with moderate/severe flares exceeded costs for patients with mild or no flares. Annual total costs gradually increased over time to €7761/PY for patients with mild and to €7564/PY for patients with no flares at Year 9, whereas costs reduced sharply at follow-up Year 1 to €8801/PY and remained similar to Year 9 for patients with moderate/severe flares (Figure 1).Table 1.Mean Costs, Number, and Duration of Hospital Stays per Person-Year by Baseline FlaresFlare-Exposure SubgroupYearBaseline123456789Patients, nNo716716701676658634603526444315Mild622622613596575559534455348239Moderate/severe750750721690669646624503391263Costs of hospital stays, mean, €No1325179822961725223331261759178617952047Mild1779194415451820165222612390197422902451Moderate/severe5517355034032798272529992663369527142977Number of hospital stays, mean, nNo0.490.460.470.440.510.530.440.410.440.45Mild0.460.480.400.500.420.470.470.480.510.43Moderate/severe1.390.850.760.640.620.670.630.760.600.74Duration of hospital stays, mean, daysNo3.514.664.983.915.025.413.984.584.464.73Mild4.554.914.114.413.764.334.134.054.684.19Moderate/severe13.898.187.587.686.887.106.597.896.546.03ConclusionPatients with moderate or severe flares following diagnosis place a large burden on the health care system in Germany.

Regions with pathologically altered substrate have been identified as potentially responsible for atrial fibrillation and atrial flutter maintenance. Also, real time feedback on lesion formation especially in those critical areas is a challenge. The LOCALIZE trial has shown significant value of the usage of the local impedance (LI) drop as a real time indicator during ablation for durable lesion formation. In these procedures, a decrease of 10-20% of the initial LI value is used as a marker of successful ablation. Also known is the fact that low electrode-tissue contact force is associated with ineffective lesion formation, whereas a high value can lead to an increased risk of steam pop. The IntellaNavSTABLEPOINT catheter offers both, LI and contact force, as a novel combined technique to characterize the process of lesion formation. Additionally, LI values are expected to distinguish between healthy and scar tissue independently from the atrial rhythm, which can improve the understanding of underlying substrate, even more, when corrected for an eventual lack of contact by combining it with contact force.
This study aims to: (1) evaluate the relationship between contact force and LI; (2) characterise the contact force during local impedance mapping depending on the wall region of the left atrium (LA).
Patients undergoing LA ablation with the STABLEPOINT catheter were included in this analysis. Contact force and LI data were recorded in four different healthy anatomical points in the LA, two in the anterior wall, and two in the posterior wall, using manually controlled contact force values between 0 g and the saturation point (70 g). When possible, additional points in scar regions were recorded. Data were exported and processed to correlate each LI measurement with the corresponding contact force. Due to the susceptibility of raw LI recordings to oscillations, moving average approach was considered. The clinical cohort comprised ten patients with a mean age of 61 years, one female. De-Novo ablations as well as redo procedures were included. Measurements at different contact force values yielded a non-linear relationship between contact force and LI. Median value of the difference between the moving average LI measurement and the LI bloodpool value were calculated at the anterior and posterior walls of the LA at contact force values from 5 to 40 g (5 g step size). Comparing the LI values at each segment, measurements differ significantly (Mann-Whitney U-test for unpaired samples) between the anterior and the posterior wall of the LA, with an ascending trend. Scar points showed a globally lower curve.
Results from this preliminary study showed that LI and contact force are non-linearly dependent and it differs between anterior and posterior atrial walls, as well as between healthy and pathological substrate. Further investigations in a larger clinical cohort will analyse the LI variability to set an optimal contact force technique during LI mapping.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Phytoplankton communities significantly contribute to global biogeochemical cycles of elements and underpin marine food webs. Although their uncultured genomic diversity has been estimated by planetary-scale metagenome sequencing and subsequent reconstruction of metagenome-assembled genomes (MAGs), this approach has yet to be applied for complex phytoplankton microbiomes from polar and non-polar oceans consisting of microbial eukaryotes and their associated prokaryotes. RESULTS Here, we have assembled MAGs from chlorophyll a maximum layers in the surface of the Arctic and Atlantic Oceans enriched for species associations (microbiomes) with a focus on pico- and nanophytoplankton and their associated heterotrophic prokaryotes. From 679 Gbp and estimated 50 million genes in total, we recovered 143 MAGs of medium to high quality. Although there was a strict demarcation between Arctic and Atlantic MAGs, adjacent sampling stations in each ocean had 51-88% MAGs in common with most species associations between Prasinophytes and Proteobacteria. Phylogenetic placement revealed eukaryotic MAGs to be more diverse in the Arctic whereas prokaryotic MAGs were more diverse in the Atlantic Ocean. Approximately 70% of protein families were shared between Arctic and Atlantic MAGs for both prokaryotes and eukaryotes. However, eukaryotic MAGs had more protein families unique to the Arctic whereas prokaryotic MAGs had more families unique to the Atlantic. CONCLUSION Our study provides a genomic context to complex phytoplankton microbiomes to reveal that their community structure was likely driven by significant differences in environmental conditions between the polar Arctic and warm surface waters of the tropical and subtropical Atlantic Ocean.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A peripheral venous catheter (PVC) is the most widely used device for obtaining vascular access, allowing the administration of fluids and medication. Up to 25% of adult patients, and 50% of pediatric patients experience a first-attempt cannulation failure. In addition to patient and clinician characteristics, device features might affect the handling and success rates. The objective of the study was to compare the first-attempt cannulation success rate between PVCs with wings and a port access (Vasofix® Safety, B. Braun, abbreviated hereon in as VS) with those without (Introcan® Safety, B. Braun, abbreviated hereon in as IS) in an anesthesiological cohort. METHODS An open label, multi-center, randomized trial was performed. First-attempt cannulation success rates were examined, along with relevant patient, clinician, and device characteristics with univariate and multivariate analyses. Information on handling and adherence to use instructions was gathered, and available catheters were assessed for damage. RESULTS Two thousand three hundred four patients were included in the intention to treat analysis. First-attempt success rate was significantly higher with winged and ported catheters (VS) than with the non-winged, non-ported design (IS) (87.5% with VS vs. 78.2% with IS; PChi < .001). Operators rated the handling of VS as superior (rating of "good" or "very good: 86.1% VS vs. 20.8% IS, PChi < .001). Reinsertion of the needle into the catheter after partial withdrawal-prior or during the catheterization attempt-was associated with an increased risk of cannulation failure (7.909, CI 5.989-10.443, P < .001 and 23.023, CI 10.372-51.105, P < .001, respectively) and a twofold risk of catheter damage (OR 1.999, CI 1.347-2.967, P = .001). CONCLUSIONS First-attempt cannulation success of peripheral, ported, winged catheters was higher compared to non-ported, non-winged devices. The handling of the winged and ported design was better rated by the clinicians. Needle reinsertions are related to an increase in rates of catheter damage and cannulation failure.

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

Abstract
Poleward range shifts are a global-scale response to warming, but these vary greatly among taxa and are hard to predict for individual species, localized regions or over shorter (years to decadal) timescales. Moving poleward might be easier in the Arctic than in the Southern Ocean, where evidence for range shifts is sparse and contradictory. Here, we compiled a database of larval Antarctic krill, Euphausia superba and, together with an adult database, it showed how their range shift is out of step with the pace of warming. During a 70-year period of rapid warming (1920s-1990s), distribution centres of both larvae and adults in the SW Atlantic sector remained fixed, despite warming by 0.5-1.0°C and losing sea ice. This was followed by a hiatus in surface warming and ice loss, yet during this period the distributions of krill life stages shifted greatly, by ~1000 km, to the south-west. Understanding the mechanism of such step changes is essential, since they herald system reorganizations that are hard to predict with current modelling approaches. We propose that the abrupt shift was driven by climatic controls acting on localized recruitment hotspots, superimposed on thermal niche conservatism. During the warming hiatus, the Southern Annular Mode index continued to become increasingly positive and, likely through reduced feeding success for larvae, this led to a precipitous decline in recruitment from the main reproduction hotspot along the southern Scotia Arc. This cut replenishment to the northern portion of the krill stock, as evidenced by declining density and swarm frequency. Concomitantly, a new, southern reproduction area developed after the 1990s, reinforcing the range shift despite the lack of surface warming. New spawning hotspots may provide the stepping stones needed for range shifts into polar regions, so planning of climate-ready marine protected areas should include these key areas of future habitat.

Abstract
Allometric relationships between body properties of animals are useful for a wide variety of purposes, such as estimation of biomass, growth, population structure, bioenergetic modelling and carbon flux studies. This study summarizes allometric relationships of zooplankton and nekton species that play major roles in polar marine food webs. Measurements were performed on 639 individuals of 15 species sampled during three expeditions in the Southern Ocean (winter and summer) and 2374 individuals of 14 species sampled during three expeditions in the Arctic Ocean (spring and summer). The information provided by this study fills current knowledge gaps on relationships between length and wet/dry mass of understudied animals, such as various gelatinous zooplankton, and of animals from understudied seasons and maturity stages, for example, for the krill Thysanoessa macrura and larval Euphausia superba caught in winter. Comparisons show that there is intra-specific variation in length–mass relationships of several species depending on season, e.g. for the amphipod Themisto libellula. To investigate the potential use of generalized regression models, comparisons between sexes, maturity stages or age classes were performed and are discussed, such as for the several krill species and T. libellula. Regression model comparisons on age classes of the fish E. antarctica were inconclusive about their general use. Other allometric measurements performed on carapaces, eyes, heads, telsons, tails and otoliths provided models that proved to be useful for estimating length or mass in, e.g. diet studies. In some cases, the suitability of these models may depend on species or developmental stages.

Abstract
Abstract
Aim
Hepatic steatosis is an increasingly prevalent condition, with estimates of up to 30% amongst western populations. Fatty liver is a common incidental finding on abdominal imaging. Current British Society of Gastroenterology guidelines suggest the use of scoring systems, such as FIB-4 or NFS, to stratify these patients into risk categories for the development of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis, and subsequent liver failure or hepatocellular carcinoma. We carried out an audit of our own practice, to see if these guidelines were being followed.
Method
We interrogated the national imaging management system to identify all scans performed in Wexford general hospital from 16th April to 16th October 2020 which identified “hepatic steatosis” or “fatty liver”. Data extracted included: patient demographics, imaging modality & finding. We correlated this data with the patient’s LFTs to calculate their FIB-4/NFS score and investigated whether suitable patients had been referred to gastroenterology.
Results
Of the 145 patients identified as having hepatic steatosis on imaging, 65 (44.8%) had ALT derangement, 42 (29%) had ALP derangement, 81 (56%) had GGT derangement and 23 (16%) had an elevated total bilirubin. Only 26 (17.9%) of these patients had evidence of subsequent liver serology studies, and only 11 (7.6%) had been referred to gastroenterology. None of the patient cohort had either a FIB-4 or NFS score calculated.
Conclusions
There is clear evidence that guidelines are not being followed in the management of patients who are incidentally found to have hepatic steatosis.

Abstract
Eukaryotic phytoplankton are responsible for at least 20% of annual global carbon fixation. Their diversity and activity are shaped by interactions with prokaryotes as part of complex microbiomes. Although differences in their local species diversity have been estimated, we still have a limited understanding of environmental conditions responsible for compositional differences between local species communities on a large scale from pole to pole. Here, we show, based on pole-to-pole phytoplankton metatranscriptomes and microbial rDNA sequencing, that environmental differences between polar and non-polar upper oceans most strongly impact the large-scale spatial pattern of biodiversity and gene activity in algal microbiomes. The geographic differentiation of co-occurring microbes in algal microbiomes can be well explained by the latitudinal temperature gradient and associated break points in their beta diversity, with an average breakpoint at 14 °C ± 4.3, separating cold and warm upper oceans. As global warming impacts upper ocean temperatures, we project that break points of beta diversity move markedly pole-wards. Hence, abrupt regime shifts in algal microbiomes could be caused by anthropogenic climate change.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Post-intensive care syndrome (PICS) is a combination of cognitive, psychiatric and physical impairments in survivors of critical illness and intensive care. There is little data on long-term co-occurrence of associated impairments. METHODS Analysis of data from 289 sepsis survivors from a German multicenter RCT. Impairments associated with PICS (depression, PTSD, cognitive impairment, chronic pain, neuropathic symptoms, dysphagia) during 24 months follow-up are used to explore the frequency and risk factors of PICS components in three classification models. RESULTS The majority of participants showed impairments in 2-3 of 6 domains during follow-up. The overall frequency of PICS according to the classification models ranged from 32.9% to 98.6%. In regression analyses, there were no significant effects in selected ICU-related exposures or covariates for PICS classification models. Regarding individual components, only higher age and longer duration of ICU treatment and mechanical ventilation showed significant positive associations with the occurrence of cognitive impairment during follow-up, as did male gender and higher age for dysphagia. CONCLUSIONS Almost all study participants showed impairments associated with PICS in at least one domain. The proposed classification models for PICS appear to be too broad to identify specific risk factors beyond its individual components.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Microcirculatory alterations are key mechanisms in sepsis pathophysiology leading to tissue hypoxia, edema formation, and organ dysfunction. Hyperspectral imaging (HSI) is an emerging imaging technology that uses tissue-light interactions to evaluate biochemical tissue characteristics including tissue oxygenation, hemoglobin content and water content. Currently, clinical data for HSI technologies in critical ill patients are still limited. METHODS AND ANALYSIS TIVITA® Tissue System was used to measure Tissue oxygenation (StO2), Tissue Hemoglobin Index (THI), Near Infrared Perfusion Index (NPI) and Tissue Water Index (TWI) in 25 healthy volunteers and 25 septic patients. HSI measurement sites were the palm, the fingertip, and a suprapatellar knee area. Septic patients were evaluated on admission to the ICU (E), 6 h afterwards (E+6) and three times a day (t3-t9) within a total observation period of 72 h. Primary outcome was the correlation of HSI results with daily SOFA-scores. RESULTS Serial HSI at the three measurement sites in healthy volunteers showed a low mean variance expressing high retest reliability. HSI at E demonstrated significantly lower StO2 and NPI as well as higher TWI at the palm and fingertip in septic patients compared to healthy volunteers. StO2 and TWI showed corresponding results at the suprapatellar knee area. In septic patients, palm and fingertip THI identified survivors (E-t4) and revealed predictivity for 28-day mortality (E). Fingertip StO2 and THI correlated to SOFA-score on day 2. TWI was consistently increased in relation to the TWI range of healthy controls during the observation time. Palm TWI correlated positively with SOFA scores on day 3. DISCUSSION HSI results in septic patients point to a distinctive microcirculatory pattern indicative of reduced skin oxygenation and perfusion quality combined with increased blood pooling and tissue water content. THI might possess risk-stratification properties and TWI could allow tissue edema evaluation in critically ill patients. CONCLUSION HSI technologies could open new perspectives in microcirculatory monitoring by visualizing oxygenation and perfusion quality combined with tissue water content in critically ill patients - a prerequisite for future tissue perfusion guided therapy concepts in intensive care medicine.

Abstract
Background Intensive care unit (ICU) survivors often suffer from cognitive, physical and mental impairments, known as post-intensive care syndrome (PICS). ICU follow-up clinics may improve aftercare of these patients. There is a lack of evidence whether or which concept of an ICU follow-up clinic is effective. Within the PINA study, a concept for an ICU follow-up clinic was developed and will be tested in a pilot randomised controlled trial (RCT), primarily to evaluate the feasibility and additionally the potential efficacy. Methods/design Design: Pilot RCT with intervention and control (usual care) arms plus mixed-methods process evaluation. Participants: 100 ICU patients (50 per arm) of three ICUs in a university hospital (Regensburg, Germany), ≥ 18 years with an ICU stay of > 5 days, a sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) score > 5 during the ICU stay and a life expectancy of more than 6 months. Intervention: The intervention will contain three components: information, consultation and networking. Information will be available in form of an intensive care guide for patients and next of kin at the ICU and phone support during follow-up. For consultation, patients will visit the ICU follow-up clinic at least once during the first 6 months after discharge from ICU. During these visits, patients will be screened for symptoms of PICS and, if required, referred to specialists for further treatment. The networking part (e.g. special referral letter from the ICU follow-up clinic) aims to provide a network of outpatient care providers for former ICU patients. Feasibility Outcomes: Qualitative and quantitative evaluation will be used to explore reasons for non-participation and the intervention´s acceptability to patients and caregivers. Efficacy Outcomes: Health-related quality of life (HRQOL) will be assessed as primary outcome by the physical component score (PCS) of the Short-Form 12 Questionnaire (SF-12). Secondary outcomes encompass further patient-reported outcomes. All outcomes are assessed at 6 months after discharge from ICU. Discussion The PINA study will determine feasibility and potential efficacy of a complex intervention in a pilot RCT to enhance follow-up care of ICU survivors. The pilot study is an important step for further studies in the field of ICU aftercare and especially for the implementation of a pragmatic multi-centre RCT.

Abstract
Proton capture on the excited isomeric state of ^{26}Al strongly influences the abundance of ^{26}Mg ejected in explosive astronomical events and, as such, plays a critical role in determining the initial content of radiogenic ^{26}Al in presolar grains. This reaction also affects the temperature range for thermal equilibrium between the ground and isomeric levels. We present a novel technique, which exploits the isospin symmetry of the nuclear force, to address the long-standing challenge of determining proton-capture rates on excited nuclear levels. Such a technique has in-built tests that strongly support its veracity and, for the first time, we have experimentally constrained the strengths of resonances that dominate the astrophysical ^{26m}Al(p,γ)^{27}Si reaction. These constraints demonstrate that the rate is at least a factor ∼8 lower than previously expected, indicating an increase in the stellar production of ^{26}Mg and a possible need to reinvestigate sensitivity studies involving the thermal equilibration of ^{26}Al.

Abstract
The interpretation of observations of cooling neutron star crusts in quasipersistent x-ray transients is affected by predictions of the strength of neutrino cooling via crust Urca processes. The strength of crust Urca neutrino cooling depends sensitively on the electron-capture and β-decay ground-state-to-ground-state transition strengths of neutron-rich rare isotopes. Nuclei with a mass number of A=61 are predicted to be among the most abundant in accreted crusts, and the last remaining experimentally undetermined ground-state-to-ground-state transition strength was the β decay of ^{61}V. This Letter reports the first experimental determination of this transition strength, a ground-state branching of 8.1_{-3.1}^{+4.0}%, corresponding to a log ft value of 5.5_{-0.2}^{+0.2}. This result was achieved through the measurement of the β-delayed γ rays using the total absorption spectrometer SuN and the measurement of the β-delayed neutron branch using the neutron long counter system NERO at the National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory at Michigan State University. This method helps to mitigate the impact of the pandemonium effect in extremely neutron-rich nuclei on experimental results. The result implies that A=61 nuclei do not provide the strongest cooling in accreted neutron star crusts as expected by some predictions, but that their cooling is still larger compared to most other mass numbers. Only nuclei with mass numbers 31, 33, and 55 are predicted to be cooling more strongly. However, the theoretical predictions for the transition strengths of these nuclei are not consistently accurate enough to draw conclusions on crust cooling. With the experimental approach developed in this work, all relevant transitions are within reach to be studied in the future.

Abstract
Continental margins are disproportionally important for global primary production, fisheries and CO2 uptake. However, across the Northeast Atlantic shelves, there has been an ongoing summertime decline of key biota-large diatoms, dinoflagellates and copepods-that traditionally fuel higher tropic levels such as fish, sea birds and marine mammals. Here, we combine multiple time series with in situ process studies to link these declines to summer nutrient stress and increasing proportions of picophytoplankton that can comprise up to 90% of the combined pico- and nanophytoplankton biomass in coastal areas. Among the pico-fraction, it is the cyanobacterium Synechococcus that flourishes when iron and nitrogen resupply to surface waters are diminished. Our field data show how traits beyond small size give Synechococcus a competitive edge over pico- and nanoeukaryotes. Key is their ability to grow at low irradiances near the nutricline, which is aided by their superior light-harvesting system and high affinity to iron. However, minute size and lack of essential biomolecules (e.g. omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids and sterols) render Synechococcus poor primary producers to sustain shelf sea food webs efficiently. The combination of earlier spring blooms and lower summer food quantity and quality creates an increasing period of suboptimal feeding conditions for zooplankton at a time of year when their metabolic demand is highest. We suggest that this nutrition-related mismatch has contributed to the widespread, ~50% decline in summer copepod abundance we observe over the last 60 years. With Synechococcus clades being prominent from the tropics to the Arctic and their abundances increasing worldwide, our study informs projections of future food web dynamics in coastal and shelf areas where droughts and stratification lead to increasing nutrient starvation of surface waters.

Abstract
Marine microalgae within seawater and sea ice fuel high-latitude ecosystems and drive biogeochemical cycles through the fixation and export of carbon, uptake of nutrients, and production and release of oxygen and organic compounds. High-latitude marine environments are characterized by cold temperatures, dark winters and a strong seasonal cycle. Within this environment a number of diverse and dynamic habitats exist, particularly in association with the formation and melt of sea ice, with distinct microalgal communities that transition with the season. Algal physiology is a crucial component, both responding to the dynamic environment and in turn influencing its immediate physicochemical environment. As high-latitude oceans shift into new climate regimes the analysis of seasonal responses may provide insights into how microalgae will respond to long-term environmental change. This review discusses recent developments in our understanding of how the physiology of high-latitude marine microalgae is regulated over a polar seasonal cycle, with a focus on ice-associated (sympagic) algae. In particular, physiologies that impact larger scale processes will be explored, with an aim to improve our understanding of current and future ecosystems and biogeochemical cycles.

Abstract
Numerous findings are known to exist between dietary habits, physical activity, and child and adolescent health. Here, we will use data from the most recent Health Behaviour in School-aged Children (HBSC) study to describe dietary habits and patterns of physical activity. Using the survey data for 11-, 13- and 15-year-old students from across Germany, we report findings for key indicators of diet and physical activity for the 2017/18 cycle. By comparing these findings with data from the 2009/10 and 2013/14 survey cycles, we also consider current trends. Results from the most recent cycle show that 10.0% of girls and 16.9% of boys meet the World Health Organization's (WHO) physical activity recommendations. Across all HBSC cycles, this is the lowest figure so far. Concerning dietary habits, 50.6% of girls and 59.0% of boys reported having breakfast every morning. Data for daily fruit, vegetable and soft drink consumption emphasises the need to promote a healthy diet among adolescents. For all indicators of physical activity and diet, differences between girls and boys are apparent. Girls' intake of fruit and vegetables is higher and they consume fewer soft drinks, yet boys are more physically active and have breakfast more regularly. For the majority of indicators of dietary habits and physical activity, considerable inequalities relating to family affluence are observed. An important implication of the study results for dietary habits and physical activity of older children and adolescents is the need to foster settings-based approaches to promote physical activity and a healthy diet that integrate a gender-sensitive perspective.

Abstract
On January 14, 2019, the Major Atmospheric Gamma Imaging Cherenkov telescopes detected GRB 190114C above 0.2 TeV, recording the most energetic photons ever observed from a gamma-ray burst. We use this unique observation to probe an energy dependence of the speed of light in vacuo for photons as predicted by several quantum gravity models. Based on a set of assumptions on the possible intrinsic spectral and temporal evolution, we obtain competitive lower limits on the quadratic leading order of speed of light modification.

Abstract
The European Space Agency (ESA) wind mission, Aeolus, hosts the first space-based Doppler Wind Lidar (DWL) world-wide. The primary mission objective is to demonstrate the DWL technique for measuring wind profiles from space, intended for assimilation in Numerical Weather Prediction (NWP) models. The wind observations will also be used to advance atmospheric dynamics research and for evaluation of climate models. Mission spin-off products are profiles of cloud and aerosol optical properties. Aeolus was launched on 22 August 2018, and the Atmospheric LAser Doppler INstrument (Aladin) instrument switch-on was completed with first high energy output in wind mode on 4 September 2018 [1], [2]. The on-ground data processing facility worked excellent, allowing L2 product output in near-real-time from the start of the mission. First results from the wind profile product (L2B) assessment show that the winds are of very high quality, with random errors in the free Troposphere within (cloud/aerosol backscatter winds: 2.1 m/s) and larger (molecular backscatter winds: 4.3 m/s) than the requirements (2.5 m/s), but still allowing significant positive impact in first preliminary NWP impact experiments. The higher than expected random errors at the time of writing are amongst others due to a lower instrument out-and input photon budget than designed. The instrument calibration is working well, and some of the data processing steps are currently being refined to allow to fully correct instrument alignment related drifts and elevated detector dark currents causing biases in the first data product version. The optical properties spin-off product (L2A) is being compared e.g. to NWP model clouds, air quality model forecasts, and collocated ground-based observations. Features including optically thick and thin particle and hydrometeor layers are clearly identified and are being validated.

Abstract
Background Increasing resistance drives empirical use of less potent and previously reserved antibiotics, including for urinary tract infections (UTIs). Molecular profiling, without culture, might better guide early therapy. Objectives To explore the potential of AusDiagnostics multiplex tandem (MT) PCR UTI assays. Methods Two MT-PCR assays were developed successively, seeking 8 or 16 resistance genes. Amplification was tracked in real time, with melting temperatures used to confirm product identity. Assays were variously performed on: (i) extracted DNA; (ii) cultured bacteria; (iii) urine spiked with reference strains; and (iv) bacteria harvested from clinical urines. Results were compared with those from sequencing, real-time SybrGreen PCR or phenotypic susceptibility. Results Performance was similar irrespective of whether DNA, cultures or urines were used, with >90% sensitivity and specificity with respect to common β-lactamases, dfr genes and aminoglycoside resistance determinants except aadA1/A2/A3, for which carriage correlated poorly with streptomycin resistance. Fluoroquinolone-susceptible and -resistant Escherichia coli (but not other species) were distinguished by the melting temperatures of their gyrA PCR products. The time from urine to results was <3 h. Conclusions The MT-PCR assays rapidly identified resistance genes from Gram-negative bacteria in urines as well as from cultivated bacteria. Used directly on urines, this assay has the potential to guide early therapy.

Abstract
Conservation laws are deeply related to any symmetry present in a physical system1,2. Analogously to electrons in atoms exhibiting spin symmetries3, it is possible to consider neutrons and protons in the atomic nucleus as projections of a single fermion with an isobaric spin (isospin) of t = 1/2 (ref. 4). Every nuclear state is thus characterized by a total isobaric spin T and a projection Tz-two quantities that are largely conserved in nuclear reactions and decays5,6. A mirror symmetry emerges from this isobaric-spin formalism: nuclei with exchanged numbers of neutrons and protons, known as mirror nuclei, should have an identical set of states7, including their ground state, labelled by their total angular momentum J and parity π. Here we report evidence of mirror-symmetry violation in bound nuclear ground states within the mirror partners strontium-73 and bromine-73. We find that a J π = 5/2- spin assignment is needed to explain the proton-emission pattern observed from the T = 3/2 isobaric-analogue state in rubidium-73, which is identical to the ground state of strontium-73. Therefore the ground state of strontium-73 must differ from its J π = 1/2- mirror bromine-73. This observation offers insights into charge-symmetry-breaking forces acting in atomic nuclei.

Abstract
Researchers consider motivation a key determinant of physical activity. In physical education (PE) and youth sport, the more children and adolescents evaluate their teachers and coaches to be autonomy supportive, as opposed to controlling, the more self-determined they are in their motivation. Therefore, it appears valuable to help PE teachers and youth sport coaches optimize their interactions with the individuals they work with. This study was designed to systematically review the literature related to autonomy support interventions with PE teachers and youth sport coaches. After relevant databases were searched and duplicates were removed, 1,523 potentially pertinent articles were found. These were subsequently screened based on specific inclusion criteria. This systematic review process helped identify 21 studies that were included for further analyses. Overall, the interventions were frequently successful in enhancing PE teachers' and youth sport coaches' behavior. Additional research appears justified to foster self-determined motivation among children and adolescence.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Superficial surgical site infections are a common post-operative complication. They also place a considerable financial burden on healthcare. The use of prophylactic negative pressure wound therapy has been advocated to reduce wound infection rates. However, there is debate around its routine use. The purpose of this trial is to determine if prophylactic negative pressure wound therapy reduces post-operative wound complications in patients undergoing laparotomy. METHODS/DESIGN This multi-centre randomised controlled trial will compare standard surgical dressings (control) to two competing negative pressure wound therapy dressings (Prevena™ and PICO™). All patients will be over 18 years, who are undergoing an emergency or elective laparotomy. It is intended to enrol a total of 271 patients for the trial. DISCUSSION The PROPEL trial is a multi-centre randomised controlled trial of patients undergoing laparotomy. The comparison of standard treatment to two commercially available NPWT will help provide consensus on the routine management of laparotomy wounds. TRIAL REGISTRATION This study is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT number NCT03871023).

Abstract
Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba) are swarming, oceanic crustaceans, up to two inches long, and best known as prey for whales and penguins - but they have another important role. With their large size, high biomass and daily vertical migrations they transport and transform essential nutrients, stimulate primary productivity and influence the carbon sink. Antarctic krill are also fished by the Southern Ocean's largest fishery. Yet how krill fishing impacts nutrient fertilisation and the carbon sink in the Southern Ocean is poorly understood. Our synthesis shows fishery management should consider the influential biogeochemical role of both adult and larval Antarctic krill.

Abstract
The ^{23}Al(p,γ)^{24}Si reaction is among the most important reactions driving the energy generation in type-I x-ray bursts. However, the present reaction-rate uncertainty limits constraints on neutron star properties that can be achieved with burst model-observation comparisons. Here, we present a novel technique for constraining this important reaction by combining the GRETINA array with the neutron detector LENDA coupled to the S800 spectrograph at the National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory. The ^{23}Al(d,n) reaction was used to populate the astrophysically important states in ^{24}Si. This enables a measurement in complete kinematics for extracting all relevant inputs necessary to calculate the reaction rate. For the first time, a predicted close-lying doublet of a 2_{2}^{+} and (4_{1}^{+},0_{2}^{+}) state in ^{24}Si was disentangled, finally resolving conflicting results from two previous measurements. Moreover, it was possible to extract spectroscopic factors using GRETINA and LENDA simultaneously. This new technique may be used to constrain other important reaction rates for various astrophysical scenarios.
