Abstract
PURPOSE The primary aim of this study was to compare the attendance rates at a group lymphoedema education and same-day individual surveillance appointment between telehealth (TH) and in-person (IP) care for participants following breast cancer (BC) surgery. Secondary aims included evaluating participant satisfaction and costs between the two service models, while also determining the extent of technical issues and clinician satisfaction towards TH. METHODS Participants following axillary lymph node dissection surgery attended a group lymphoedema education and same-day 1:1 monitoring session via their preferred mode (TH or IP). Attendance rates, satisfaction and costs were recorded for both cohorts, and technical disruption and clinician satisfaction for the TH cohort. RESULTS Fifty-five individuals participated. All 28 participants who nominated the IP intervention attended, while 22/27 who nominated the TH intervention attended an appointment. Overall reported participant experience was positive with no significant differences between cohorts. All TH appointments were successfully completed. Clinicians reported high satisfaction for delivery of education (median = 4[IQR 4-5]) and individual assessment (median = 4[IQR 3-4]) via TH. Median attendance costs per participant were Australian $39.68 (Q1-Q3 $28.52-$68.64) for TH and Australian $154.26 (Q1-Q3 $81.89-$251.48) for the IP cohort. CONCLUSION Telehealth-delivered lymphoedema education and assessment for individuals following BC surgery was associated with favourable satisfaction, cost savings and minimal technical issues despite lower attendance than IP care. This study contributes to the growing evidence for TH and its potential applicability to other populations where risk for cancer-related lymphoedema exists.

Abstract
We report the development of a multipurpose differential x-ray calorimeter with a broad energy bandwidth. The absorber architecture is combined with a Bayesian unfolding algorithm to unfold high energy x-ray spectra generated in high-intensity laser-matter interactions. Particularly, we show how to extract absolute energy spectra and how our unfolding algorithm can reconstruct features not included in the initial guess. The performance of the calorimeter is evaluated via Monte Carlo generated data. The method accuracy to reconstruct electron temperatures from bremsstrahlung is shown to be 5% for electron temperatures from 1 to 50 MeV. We study bremsstrahlung generated in solid target interaction showing an electron temperature of 0.56 ± 0.04 MeV for a 700 μm Ti titanium target and 0.53 ± 0.03 MeV for a 50 μm target. We investigate bremsstrahlung from a target irradiated by laser-wakefield accelerated electrons showing an endpoint energy of 551 ± 5 MeV, inverse Compton generated x rays with a peak energy of 1.1 MeV, and calibrated radioactive sources. The total energy range covered by all these sources ranges from 10 keV to 551 MeV.

Abstract
PURPOSE Patients who undergo haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) often have multiple health issues following hospital discharge. In many centres, outpatient follow-up is solely conducted by specialist physicians. We aimed to implement and describe the outcomes of a nurse-allied health multidisciplinary clinic. METHODS The clinic consisted of six disciplines-nursing, pharmacy, dietetics, physiotherapy, occupational therapy and social work. All allogeneic and high risk autologous HSCT patients were reviewed at 2 weeks after discharge and on day 100 post HSCT, with additional reviews as needed. Occasions of service, interventions, readmission data and physician satisfaction survey were collected prior to and after implementation. Additionally, patient feedback and quality of life survey (FACT-BMT) were collected during the first 6 months. RESULTS From July to December 2019, 57 patients were reviewed in the clinic (475 reviews, average 8.3 reviews per patient). Common interventions included the following: exercise programs by physiotherapist (n = 111), diet prescription (n = 103), counselling by social worker (n = 53), medication lists provision (n = 51), fatigue management (n = 43) and nurse education (n = 22). The clinic did not reduce patients' readmission rate; however, positive feedback from patients and physicians were reported. FACT-BMT results demonstrated that there are unmet needs, particularly fatigue management, sexual education and support, body images, back to work support and quality of life improvement. From discharge to day 100, there was no significant improvement in quality of life. CONCLUSIONS This clinic provides an innovative approach to patient-centred care in HSCT. It has been well received by patients who were supported by multidisciplinary interventions.

Abstract
We reconstruct spectra of secondary X-rays from a tunable 250–350 MeV laser wakefield electron accelerator from single-shot X-ray depth-energy measurements in a compact (7.5 × 7.5 × 15 cm), modular X-ray calorimeter made of alternating layers of absorbing materials and imaging plates. X-rays range from few-keV betatron to few-MeV inverse Compton to > 100 MeV bremsstrahlung emission, and are characterized both individually and in mixtures. Geant4 simulations of energy deposition of single-energy X-rays in the stack generate an energy-vs-depth response matrix for a given stack configuration. An iterative reconstruction algorithm based on analytic models of betatron, inverse Compton and bremsstrahlung photon energy distributions then unfolds X-ray spectra, typically within a minute. We discuss uncertainties, limitations and extensions of both measurement and reconstruction methods.

Abstract
Flow coefficients v_{n} of the orders n=1-6 are measured with the High-Acceptance DiElectron Spectrometer (HADES) at GSI for protons, deuterons, and tritons as a function of centrality, transverse momentum, and rapidity in Au+Au collisions at sqrt[s_{NN}]=2.4 GeV. Combining the information from the flow coefficients of all orders allows us to construct for the first time, at collision energies of a few GeV, a multidifferential picture of the angular emission pattern of these particles. It reflects the complicated interplay between the effect of the central fireball pressure on the emission of particles and their subsequent interaction with spectator matter. The high precision information on higher order flow coefficients is a major step forward in constraining the equation of state of dense baryonic matter.

Abstract
Radiative transition of an excited baryon to a nucleon with emission of a virtual massive photon converting to dielectron pair (Dalitz decays) provides important information about baryon-photon coupling at low q2 in timelike region. A prominent enhancement in the respective electromagnetic transition Form Factors (etFF) at q2 near vector mesons ρ/ω poles has been predicted by various calculations reflecting strong baryon-vector meson couplings. The understanding of these couplings is also of primary importance for the interpretation of the emissivity of QCD matter studied in heavy ion collisions via dilepton emission. Dedicated measurements of baryon Dalitz decays in proton-proton and pion-proton scattering with HADES detector at GSI/FAIR are presented and discussed. The relevance of these studies for the interpretation of results obtained from heavy ion reactions is elucidated on the example of the HADES results.

Abstract
We present the first observation of K^{-} and ϕ absorption within nuclear matter by means of π^{-}-induced reactions on C and W targets at an incident beam momentum of 1.7 GeV/c studied with HADES at SIS18/GSI. The double ratio (K^{-}/K^{+})_{W}/(K^{-}/K^{+})_{C} is found to be 0.319±0.009(stat)_{-0.012}^{+0.014}(syst) indicating a larger absorption of K^{-} in heavier targets as compared to lighter ones. The measured ϕ/K^{-} ratios in π^{-}+C and π^{-}+W reactions within the HADES acceptance are found to be equal to 0.55±0.04(stat)_{-0.07}^{+0.06}(syst) and to 0.63±0.06(stat)_{-0.11}^{+0.11}(syst), respectively. The similar ratios measured in the two different reactions demonstrate for the first time experimentally that the dynamics of the ϕ meson in nuclear medium is strongly coupled to the K^{-} dynamics. The large difference in the ϕ production off C and W nuclei is discussed in terms of a strong ϕN in-medium coupling. These results are relevant for the description of heavy-ion collisions and the structure of neutron stars.

Abstract
The HADES collaboration uses the e+e− production as a probe of the resonance matter produced in collisions at incident energies of 1-3.5 GeV/nucleon at GSI. Elementary reactions provide useful references for these studies and give information on resonance Dalitz decays (R→Ne+e−). Such processes are sensitive to the structure of time-like electromagnetic baryon transitions in a kinematic range where (off-shell) vector mesons play a crucial role. Results obtained in proton-proton reactions and in a commissioning pion-beam experiment are reported and prospects for future pion beam experiments and for first hyperon Dalitz decay measurements are described. The connection with the investigations of medium effects to be continued with HADES in the next years at SIS18 and SIS100 is also discussed.

Abstract
Results on the production of the double strange cascade hyperon Ξ^{-} are reported for collisions of p(3.5 GeV)+Nb, studied with the High Acceptance Di-Electron Spectrometer (HADES) at SIS18 at GSI Helmholtzzentrum for Heavy-Ion Research, Darmstadt. For the first time, subthreshold Ξ^{-} production is observed in proton-nucleus interactions. Assuming a Ξ^{-} phase-space distribution similar to that of Λ hyperons, the production probability amounts to P_{Ξ^{-}}=[2.0±0.4(stat)±0.3(norm)±0.6(syst)]×10^{-4} resulting in a Ξ^{-}/(Λ+Σ^{0}) ratio of P_{Ξ^{-}}/P_{Λ+Σ^{0}}=[1.2±0.3(stat)±0.4(syst)]×10^{-2}. Available model predictions are significantly lower than the measured Ξ^{-} yield.

Abstract
Anticytokine therapies have revolutionized the treatment of chronic inflammatory diseases, particularly autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis. As the first introduced principle of cytokine blockade in the 1990s, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α antagonists still represent the leading anticytokine therapy. There are currently five TNF antagonists available with indications in the fields of rheumatology, dermatology, and gastroenterology. Other therapeutic approaches have been introduced in the last 10 years, e.g., the blockade of interleukin (IL)-1, IL-6, and IL-12/23. The advantages of cytokine blockers are their rapid onset of action with high response rates and a tolerable safety profile. Nevertheless, anticytokine therapy can cause increased rates of tuberculosis and hepatitis B infections or reactivation. An appropriate screening before therapy is mandatory, and thorough monitoring of the disease course before and during therapy is also important. The development of further anticytokine drugs for the induction and maintenance of remission is, therefore, required.

Abstract
UNLABELLED The bone mineral density (BMD) measurement of the hand in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients is no standard measurement method as yet. The aim was to contribute to the standardization of the hand BMD measurement, especially of periarticular regions. As results, we found best precision values for the wrist and a significant correlation between hand and spine/femur BMD depending on disease activity and disease duration. INTRODUCTION This study was conducted to investigate (i) the precision of periarticular hand BMD measuring, (ii) the periarticular demineralization of the hand, (iii) the correlation between periarticular hand BMD and spine/femur BMD, and (iv) the correlation of hand BMD to hand synovitis. METHODS A number of 52 RA patients were examined by BMD measurement of the femoral neck, spine, whole hand, metacarpophalangeal (MCP) joints II-V, personal identity profile (PIP) joints II-V, and wrist using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA). Synovitis of the hand was examined by ultrasonography and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Three subgroups were further analyzed: early RA, established RA with moderate and with high disease activity. Early RA and established RA patients with high disease activity were Followed up after 12 months. RESULTS We found (1) best precision of BMD measurement for the wrist, (2) BMD in RA significantly reduced if compared to normal controls, (3) a highly significant positive correlation between hand and spine/femur BMD and the power of correlation to depend on disease activity and disease duration (high correlation in RA with moderate disease activity and early RA, very high correlation in RA with high disease activity), (4) a negative correlation between hand BMD and hand synovitis in RA with high disease activity, and (5) a significant reduction of synovitis but no change in hand BMD after 12 months, respectively. CONCLUSIONS This study shows a highly significant correlation between hand BMD and spine/femur BMD in RA patients depending on disease activity and disease duration. We conclude to measure BMD at different sites including hands in order to quantify bone loss in RA patients most properly.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate wrist and finger joints in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) by grayscale, power Doppler (PD) and contrast-enhanced musculoskeletal ultrasonography (US) and to compare these findings with MRI, clinical (DAS28) and laboratory (ESR; CRP) data. MATERIALS AND METHODS US was performed at baseline (t0) and after three, six and twelve (t12) months before and after a change of medical treatment. MRI was carried out at t0 and t12 and used as the reference method. Contrast-enhanced US was used to assess one clinically most affected joint region. Different semiquantitative synovitis scores were calculated by grayscale and PD US. RESULTS Contrast-enhanced US results evaluated by enhancement, slope and semi-quantitative assessment significantly correlated to each other, to grayscale US, CRP, as well as to MRI with the highest correlation coefficients for the used contrast-enhanced US modes (r = 0.56, r = 0.55, r = 0.57; each p < 0.05). Sum scores evaluated by grayscale US showed that synovial inflammation in finger joints was detected significantly more frequently in the palmar aspect than on the dorsal side (p = 0.001). Using power Doppler US, the wrists were significantly more inflamed from dorsal than on the palmar side (p = 0.0004). Significant longitudinal correlations between grayscale and power Doppler US scores were detected. CONCLUSION Grayscale, power Doppler and contrast-enhanced US are accurate tools for the detection and follow-up of synovitis in RA wrist and finger joints, with contrast-enhanced US being most sensitive compared to MRI. All imaging methods reflected a good response to TNFα blocking therapy.

Abstract
We report first results on a deep subthreshold production of the doubly strange hyperon Xi;{-} in a heavy-ion reaction. At a beam energy of 1.76A GeV the reaction Ar + KCl was studied with the High Acceptance Di-Electron Spectrometer at SIS18/GSI. A high-statistics and high-purity Lambda sample was collected, allowing for the investigation of the decay channel Xi;{-} --> Lambdapi;{-}. The deduced Xi;{-}/(Lambda + Sigma;{0}) production ratio of (5.6 +/- 1.2_{-1.7};{+1.8}) x 10;{-3} is significantly larger than available model predictions.

Abstract
An unusual course of infection with Mycobacterium malmoense is described in a patient receiving chronic but mild immunosuppressive therapy for rheumatoid arthritis. Symptoms mimicking Crohn's disease deteriorated under intensified immunosuppression and surgery. Judging from the patient's course under treatment specific for M. malmoense, the gastrointestinal symptoms were rather manifestations of a chronic relapsing mycobacterial infection. Detailed immunological investigation of the patient revealed a severely impaired TH-1 cytokine response as the immunological background for this uncommon course.

Abstract
The invariant-mass spectrum of e+e- pairs produced in 12C+12C collisions at an incident energy of 2 GeV per nucleon has been measured for the first time. The measured pair production probabilities span over 5 orders of magnitude from the pi(0)-Dalitz to the rho/omega invariant-mass region. Dalitz decays of pi(0) and eta account for all the yield up to 0.15 GeV/c(2), but for only about 50% above this mass. A comparison with model calculations shows that the excess pair yield is likely due to baryon-resonance and vector-meson decays. Transport calculations based on vacuum spectral functions fail, however, to describe the entire mass region.

Abstract
In Germany, tuberculous lesions in slaughtered pigs due to infection with members of the Mycobacterium avium complex are increasingly reported. Contaminated food originating from pig or other livestock is discussed as potential source of human infection. M. avium isolates from man (n=45), pig (n=29), and cattle (n=13) were characterised by restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) with respect to insertion sequences IS1245 and IS901 as well as by XbaI-based pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) and the results were compared by computer cluster correlation analysis, to determine potential sources of infection in man. By PCR, 55% of animal isolates was identified as M. avium subsp. avium, and 45% as M. a. hominissuis. All human isolates belonged to M. a. hominissuis. IS1245-RFLP and PFGE resulted in two distinct main groupings reflecting the two subspecies, and dividing the isolates into several subgroups. Animal isolates of M. a. hominissuis were widely distributed within the subgroups of human isolates. M. a. avium isolates, further discriminated by IS901-RFLP, formed host-associated subgroups for animals. Comparison of RFLP patterns with those of PFGE resulted in different subgroups as well as different pairs of isolates with high similarities. Only two isolates exhibited identical patterns by both methods. In general, results of both methods support the possibility that M. a. hominissuis isolates from livestock represent a source of infection for man, probably by common environmental reservoirs. There was no evidence of human infections caused by M. a. avium in Germany.

Abstract
Differential production cross sections of K+/- mesons have been measured in p + C and p + Au collisions at 1.6, 2.5, and 3.5 GeV proton beam energy. At beam energies close to the production threshold, the K- multiplicity is strongly enhanced with respect to proton-proton collisions. According to microscopic transport calculations, this enhancement is caused by two effects: the strangeness exchange reaction NY --> K- NN and an attractive in-medium K- N potential at saturation density.

Abstract
Azimuthal distributions of pi+, K+, and K- mesons have been measured in Au+Au reactions at 1.5A GeV and Ni+Ni reactions at 1.93 A GeV. In semicentral collisions at midrapidity, pi+ and K+ mesons are emitted preferentially perpendicular to the reaction plane in both collision systems. In contrast for K- mesons in Ni+Ni reactions, an in-plane elliptic flow was observed for the first time at these incident energies.

Abstract
Differential production cross sections of K- and K+ mesons have been measured in Ni+Ni and Au+Au collisions at a beam energy of 1.5 A GeV. The K(-)/K(+) ratio is found to be nearly constant as a function of the collision centrality and system size. The spectral slopes and the polar emission pattern differ for K- and K+ mesons. These observations indicate that K+ mesons decouple earlier from the fireball than K- mesons.

Abstract
A 76-year-old white male presented with progressive malaise, weight loss and dyspnea at rest. Echocardiography revealed a circular pericardial effusion and global hypokinesia. Pericardiocentesis showed a purulent exudate and microbiologic examination revealed Mycobacterium bovis fully sensitive to isoniazid, streptomycin, ethambutol, rifampin, and pyrazinamide. By spoligotyping the isolate could be further differentiated to M. bovis ssp. caprae. Antimycobacterial therapy was initiated but 3 weeks later the patient's circulation and renal function deteriorated and he died with clinical signs of sepsis despite intensive care treatment. Pericarditis is a rare manifestation of tuberculosis and can be fatal even when diagnosed and treated appropriately. In low incidence countries diagnosis is often delayed and even overlooked.

Abstract
Mycobacterial strains from different outbreaks of tuberculosis of cattle in Germany from 1996 to 2001 were differentiated by two molecular biological methods (Spoligotyping, RFLP IS6110). The causative agent was in one case Mycobacterium (M.) africanum, in 10 cases M. bovis and in 17 cases M. bovis ssp. caprae, respectively. The results of the molecular biological methods are discussed from the perspective of epizootiology and the particular importance of infections by M. bovis ssp. caprae emphasized. Direct contact of the animals, purchase from infected stocks, infected zoo animals and wildlife, as well as livestock handlers are discussed as possible sources of infection.

Abstract
The production of pions and kaons has been measured in 197Au+197Au collisions at beam energies from 0.6 to 1.5A GeV with the kaon spectrometer at SIS/GSI. The K+ meson multiplicity per nucleon is enhanced in Au+Au collisions by factors up to 6 relative to C+C reactions, whereas the corresponding pion ratio is reduced. The ratio of the K+ meson excitation functions for Au+Au and C+C collisions increases with decreasing beam energy. This behavior is expected for a soft nuclear equation-of-state.

Abstract
A pathogenic scotochromogenic Mycobacterium xenopi-like organism was isolated from the lung of an immunocompetent young woman. This pathogen caused severe bilateral cavitary lung disease, making two surgical interventions necessary after years of chronic disease. This case prompted us to characterize this mycobacterium by a polyphasic taxonomic approach. The isolate contained chemotaxonomic markers which were typical for the genus Mycobacterium, i.e., the meso isomer of 2,6-diaminopimelic acid, arabinose, and galactose as diagnostic whole-cell sugars, MK-9(H(2)) as the principal isoprenoid quinone, a mycolic acid pattern of alpha-mycolates, ketomycolates, and wax ester mycolates, unbranched saturated and unsaturated fatty acids plus a significant amount of tuberculostearic acid, and small amounts of a C(20:0) secondary alcohol. On the basis of its unique 16S rRNA and 16S-23S spacer gene sequences, we propose that the isolate should be assigned to a new species, Mycobacterium heckeshornense. This novel species is phylogenetically closely related to M. xenopi. The type strain of M. heckeshornense is strain S369 (DSM 44428(T)). The GenBank accession number of the 16S rRNA gene of M. heckeshornense is AF174290.

Abstract
A novel genus-specific PCR for mycobacteria with simple identification to the species level by restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) was established using the 16S-23S ribosomal RNA gene (rDNA) spacer as a target. Panspecificity of primers was demonstrated on the genus level by testing 811 bacterial strains (122 species in 37 genera from 286 reference strains and 525 clinical isolates). All mycobacterial isolates (678 strains among 48 defined species and 5 indeterminate taxons) were amplified by the new primers. Among nonmycobacterial isolates, only Gordonia terrae was amplified. The RFLP scheme devised involves estimation of variable PCR product sizes together with HaeIII and CfoI restriction analysis. It yielded 58 HaeIII patterns, of which 49 (84%) were unique on the species level. Hence, HaeIII digestion together with CfoI results was sufficient for correct identification of 39 of 54 mycobacterial taxons and one of three or four of seven RFLP genotypes found in Mycobacterium intracellulare and Mycobacterium kansasii, respectively. Following a clearly laid out diagnostic algorithm, the remaining unidentified organisms fell into five clusters of closely related species (i.e., the Mycobacterium avium complex or Mycobacterium chelonae-Mycobacterium abscessus) that were successfully separated using additional enzymes (TaqI, MspI, DdeI, or AvaII). Thus, next to slowly growing mycobacteria, all rapidly growing species studied, including M. abscessus, M. chelonae, Mycobacterium farcinogenes, Mycobacterium fortuitum, Mycobacterium peregrinum, and Mycobacterium senegalense (with a very high 16S rDNA sequence similarity) were correctly identified. A high intraspecies sequence stability and the good discriminative power of patterns indicate that this method is very suitable for rapid and cost-effective identification of a wide variety of mycobacterial species without the need for sequencing. Phylogenetically, spacer sequence data stand in good agreement with 16S rDNA sequencing results, as was shown by including strains with unsettled taxonomy. Since this approach recognized significant subspecific genotypes while identification of a broad spectrum of mycobacteria rested on identification of one specific RFLP pattern within a species, this method can be used by both reference (or research) and routine laboratories.

Abstract
Acid-fast bacilli from pediatric patients with lymphadenopathy were detected in the BACTEC radiometric system and in MB Redox broth, but not on Löwenstein Jensen medium. PCR amplification identified the isolates as Mycobacterium haemophilum, which has special nutrition requirements (iron supplements) for growth. Suitable culture medium ensures optimal recovery of this microorganism, avoiding underdiagnosis.

Abstract
A new, slow-growing, scotochromogenic mycobacterium was isolated from sputum of a 53-year-old patient with Down's syndrome suffering from tuberculosis. Growth occurred at temperatures between 25 and 40 degrees C with an optimum at 37 degrees C. This strain had surprisingly few enzymic activities (only positive for 68 degrees C heat-stable catalase and weakly positive for urease) and was sensitive to prothionamide, cycloserine, clarithromycin, gentamicin and amikacin but showed resistance to isoniazid, streptomycin, ethambutol, rifampin and ciprofloxacin. These characteristics assign this organism to a novel mycobacterial species characterized by a unique 16S rDNA nucleotide sequence. The name Mycobacterium bohemicum sp. nov. is proposed for this new, slow-growing, scotochromogenic mycobacterium. The type strain is DSM 44277T.
