Abstract
OBJECTIVE Many children with physical disabilities need additional postural support when sitting and supplementary padding is used on standards approved child restraints to achieve this when traveling in a motor vehicle. However, the effect of this padding on crash protection for a child is unknown. This study aimed to investigate the effect of additional padding for postural support on crash protection for child occupants in forward facing child restraints. METHODS Forty frontal sled tests at 49 km/h were conducted to compare Q1 anthropometric test device (ATD) responses in a forward-facing restraint, with and without additional padding in locations to increase recline of the restraint, and/or support the head, trunk and pelvis. Three padding materials were tested: cloth toweling, soft foam, and expanded polystyrene (EPS). The influence of padding on head excursion, peak 3 ms head acceleration, HIC15, peak 3 ms chest acceleration and chest deflection were analyzed. RESULTS The influence of padding varied depending on the location of use. Padding used under the restraint to increase the recline angle increased head injury metrics. Toweling in multiple locations which included behind the head increased head excursion and chest injury metrics. There was minimal effect on injury risk measures with additional padding to support the sides of the head or the pelvis position. Rigid EPS foam, as recommended in Australian standards and guidelines, had minimal effect on injury metrics when used inside the restraint, as did tightly rolled or folded toweling secured to the restraint at single locations around the body of the child. CONCLUSIONS This study does not support the use of postural support padding to increase recline of a forward-facing restraint or padding behind the head. Recommendations in published standards and guidelines to not use foam that is spongy, soft or easily compressed, with preference for secured firm foam or short-term use of tightly rolled or folded toweling under the child restraint cover is supported. This study also highlights the importance of considering the whole context of child occupant protection when using additional padding, particularly the change in the child's seated position when adding padding in relation to the standard safety features of the restraint.

Abstract
The T2K experiment presents new measurements of neutrino oscillation parameters using 19.7 ( 16.3 ) × 10 20 protons on target (POT) in (anti-)neutrino mode at the far detector (FD). Compared to the previous analysis, an additional 4.7 × 10 20 POT neutrino data was collected at the FD. Significant improvements were made to the analysis methodology, with the near-detector analysis introducing new selections and using more than double the data. Additionally, this is the first T2K oscillation analysis to use NA61/SHINE data on a replica of the T2K target to tune the neutrino flux model, and the neutrino interaction model was improved to include new nuclear effects and calculations. Frequentist and Bayesian analyses are presented, including results on sin 2 θ 13 and the impact of priors on the δ CP measurement. Both analyses prefer the normal mass ordering and upper octant of sin 2 θ 23 with a nearly maximally CP-violating phase. Assuming the normal ordering and using the constraint on sin 2 θ 13 from reactors, sin 2 θ 23 = 0 . 561 - 0.032 + 0.021 using Feldman-Cousins corrected intervals, and Δ m 32 2 = 2 . 494 - 0.058 + 0.041 × 10 - 3 eV 2 using constant Δ χ 2 intervals. The CP-violating phase is constrained to δ CP = - 1 . 97 - 0.70 + 0.97 using Feldman-Cousins corrected intervals, and δ CP = 0 , π is excluded at more than 90% confidence level. A Jarlskog invariant of zero is excluded at more than 2 σ credible level using a flat prior in δ CP , and just below 2 σ using a flat prior in sin δ CP . When the external constraint on sin 2 θ 13 is removed, sin 2 θ 13 = 28 . 0 - 6.5 + 2.8 × 10 - 3 , in agreement with measurements from reactor experiments. These results are consistent with previous T2K analyses.

Abstract
We report a search for cosmic-ray boosted dark matter with protons using the 0.37 megaton×years data collected at Super-Kamiokande experiment during the 1996-2018 period (SKI-IV phase). We searched for an excess of proton recoils above the atmospheric neutrino background from the vicinity of the Galactic Center. No such excess is observed, and limits are calculated for two reference models of dark matter with either a constant interaction cross section or through a scalar mediator. This is the first experimental search for boosted dark matter with hadrons using directional information. The results present the most stringent limits on cosmic-ray boosted dark matter and exclude the dark matter-nucleon elastic scattering cross section between 10^{-33}cm^{2} and 10^{-27}cm^{2} for dark matter mass from 1 MeV/c^{2} to 300 MeV/c^{2}.

Abstract
Quantitative testing of BK virus (BKPyV) nucleic acid has become the standard of care in transplant patients. While the relationship between interassay harmonization and commutability has been well characterized for other transplant-related viruses, it has been less well studied for BKPyV, particularly regarding differences in commutability between matrices. Here, interassay agreement was evaluated among six real-time nucleic acid amplification tests (NAATs) and one digital PCR (dPCR) BKPyV assay. Differences in the commutability of three quantitative standards was examined across all assays using a variety of statistical approaches. Panels, including 40 samples each of plasma and urine samples previously positive for BKPyV, together with one previously negative plasma sample and four previously negative urine samples, were tested using all assays, with each real-time NAAT utilizing its usual quantitative calibrators. Serial dilutions of WHO, National Institute for Standards and Technology (NIST), and commercially produced (Exact/Bio-Rad) reference materials were also run by each assay as unknowns. The agreement of the clinical sample values was assessed as a group and in a pairwise manner. The commutability was estimated using both relativistic and quantitative means. The quantitative agreement across assays in the urine samples was within a single log10 unit across all assays, while the results from the plasma samples varied by 2 to 3 log10 IU/mL. The commutability showed a similar disparity between the matrices. Recalibration using international standards diminished the resulting discrepancies in some but not all cases. Differences in the sample matrix can affect the commutability and interassay agreement of quantitative BKPyV assays. Differences in commutability between matrices may largely be due to factors other than those such as amplicon size, previously described as important in the case of cytomegalovirus. Continued efforts to standardize viral load measurements must address multiple sources of variability and account for differences in assay systems, quantitative standards, and sample matrices.

Abstract
Background:Chronic pain is a common and disabling health problem and those affected may need support with their activities of daily living (ADLs). Currently there are no data quantifying how much social care support people with chronic pain need.Objectives:To describe formal and informal social care use in people with chronic painMethods:Between June-July 2019, previous participants of theCloudy with a Chance of Painstudy were invited to take part in an online survey, adapted from a validated Personal Social Services Research Unit interview survey. It collected data on whether participants with chronic pain needed help with ADLs, how frequently help was needed and who provided it (formal and informal social care). Additional data was collected on demographics, employment status, pain diagnosis, and comorbidities. Descriptive statistics described the burden of social care need and multivariable logistic regression identified factors associated with social care need.Results:There were 981 respondents; 791 (81%) were female, median age 59 years (table 1). In the last month 527(61%) respondents reported needing help with ADLs. Over three-quarters of help was provided informally by family and friends (408 (77%)). For 309 (59%) respondents, help was needed at least daily. In the multivariable logistic regression model, needing help was lower with older age, (OR (95% CI) 0.96 (0.94-0.98), but higher in female gender (OR (95% CI) 1.96 (1.27-3.01), fibromyalgia (OR(95% CI) 2.75(2.53-5.54)), osteoarthritis (OR (95% CI) 1.56 (1.11-2.19)) and multi-morbidity OR (95% CI) 2.13 (1.51-3.01)). Compared to full-time work, respondents who were retired or unable to work were also significantly more likely to need help with ADLs, respective OR (95% CI) 2.16 (1.21-3.84) and 6.98 (3.72-13.08).Table 1.All respondentsn=981Need help$n=527No help$n=337MissingAge med (IQR)59 (50-66)57 (47-64)61 (52-68)5Female n (%)791 (81)452 (86)251 (74)11Employment statusn (%)FTPTSelf-employedStudentHomemakerRetiredUnable to workUnemployed134 (14)169 (17)50 (5)7 (0.7)23 (2)360 (37)221 (23)16 (1.6)54 (10)79 (15)26 (5)4 (0.8)12 (2)151 (29)188 (36)12 (2)70 (21)69 (20)19 (6)2 (0.6)10 (3)143 (42)21 (6)3 (0.9)1Diagnosis reportedn (%)*OsteoarthritisFibromyalgiaRheumatoid arthritisArthritis (type not specified)Ankylosing SpondylitisGoutMigraine/chronic headacheNeuropathic painOther (inc Psoriatic arthritis, hypermobility)929 (95)482 (49)265 (27)205 (21)128 (15)56 (6)18 (2)115 (13)155 (18)272 (29)516 (98)269 (51)207 (39)115 (22)73 (14)33 (6)13 (2)82 (16)120 (23)209 (39)313 (93)160 (47)40 (12)73 (22)55 (16)23 (7)5 (1)33 (10)35 (10)63 (19)11Any MSk diagnosisn (%)828 (95)460 (87)279 (83)64Multi-morbidity∞n (%)712 (82)473 (90)54 (36)0med - median, IQR - interquartile range, MSk – musculoskeletal$117 respondents did not answer the question about whether they did or did not need help with ADLs*some participants reported more than one diagnosis for their painincludes MSK diseases above and the following chronic diseases listed in questionnaire: angina, heart attack, stroke, COPD, diabetes, cancer, parkinson’s, multiple sclerosis, depression, other (participants asked to specify)Conclusion:A high proportion of people with chronic pain needed support with ADLs; for more than half, on a daily or more frequent basis. Interestingly, younger patients were more likely to need help which may reflect responder bias (younger patients with severe pain potentially more likely to respond than those with milder pain). The majority of support was provided informally, and this could be for a number of reasons. For example, lack of awareness/not meeting eligibility/unable to afford formal social care, or preference to be cared for by familiar persons. This should be explored in future research. These results demonstrate the burden of social care may be significantly greater than government and social care organisations are aware, with important implications for policy and planning.Disclosure of Interests:Jenny Humphreys: None declared, Katy Dempsey: None declared, Ollie Phelan: None declared, Laura Boothman: None declared, Louise Cook: None declared, William Dixon Consultant of: Bayer and Google

Abstract
Electron antineutrino appearance is measured by the T2K experiment in an accelerator-produced antineutrino beam, using additional neutrino beam operation to constrain parameters of the Pontecorvo-Maki-Nakagawa-Sakata (PMNS) mixing matrix. T2K observes 15 candidate electron antineutrino events with a background expectation of 9.3 events. Including information from the kinematic distribution of observed events, the hypothesis of no electron antineutrino appearance is disfavored with a significance of 2.40σ and no discrepancy between data and PMNS predictions is found. A complementary analysis that introduces an additional free parameter which allows non-PMNS values of electron neutrino and antineutrino appearance also finds no discrepancy between data and PMNS predictions.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
The aim was to carry out phase 4 international field-testing of the European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) breast reconstruction (BRECON) module. The primary objective was finalization of its scale structure. Secondary objectives were evaluation of its reliability, validity, responsiveness, acceptability and interpretability in patients with breast cancer undergoing mastectomy and reconstruction.
Methods
The EORTC module development guidelines were followed. Patients were recruited from 28 centres in seven countries. A prospective cohort completed the QLQ-BRECON15 before mastectomy and the QLQ-BRECON24 at 4–8 months after reconstruction. The cross-sectional cohort completed the QLQ-BRECON24 at 1–5 years after reconstruction, and repeated this 2–8 weeks later (test–retest reliability). All participants completed debriefing questionnaires.
Results
A total of 438 patients were recruited, 234 in the prospective cohort and 204 in the cross-sectional cohort. A total of 414 reconstructions were immediate, with a comparable number of implants (176) and donor-site flaps (166). Control groups comprised patients who underwent two-stage implant procedures (72, 75 per cent) or delayed reconstruction (24, 25 per cent). Psychometric scale validity was supported by moderate to high item-own scale and item-total correlations (over 0·5). Questionnaire validity was confirmed by good scale-to-sample targeting, and computable scale scores exceeding 50 per cent, except nipple cosmesis (over 40 per cent). In known-group comparisons, QLQ-BRECON24 scales and items differentiated between patient groups defined by clinical criteria, such as type and timing of reconstruction, postmastectomy radiotherapy and surgical complications, with moderate effect sizes. Prospectively, sexuality and surgical side-effects scales showed significant responsiveness over time (P < 0·001). Scale reliability was supported by high Cronbach's α coefficients (over 0·7) and test–retest (intraclass correlation more than 0·8). One item (finding a well fitting bra) was excluded based on high floor/ceiling effects, poor test–retest and weak correlations in factor analysis (below 0·3), thus generating the QLQ-BRECON23 questionnaire.
Conclusion
The QLQ-BRECON23 is an internationally validated tool to be used alongside the EORTC QLQ-C30 (cancer) and QLQ-BR23 (breast cancer) questionnaires for evaluating quality of life and satisfaction after breast reconstruction.

Abstract
Magnetically tunable Feshbach resonances are an indispensable tool for experiments with atomic quantum gases. We report on 37 thus far unpublished Feshbach resonances and four further probable Feshbach resonances in spin mixtures of ultracold fermionic 40K with temperatures well below 100 nK. In particular, we locate a broad resonance at B = 389.7G with a magnetic width of 26.7 G. Here 1 G = 10-4 T. Furthermore, by exciting low-energy spin waves, we demonstrate a means to precisely determine the zero crossing of the scattering length for this broad Feshbach resonance. Our findings allow for further tunability in experiments with ultracold 40K quantum gases.

Abstract
Objective Time-lag from study completion to publication is a potential source of publication bias in randomised controlled trials. This study sought to update the evidence base by identifying the effect of the statistical significance of research findings on time to publication of trial results. Design Literature searches were carried out in four general medical journals from June 2013 to June 2014 inclusive (BMJ, JAMA, the Lancet and the New England Journal of Medicine). Setting Methodological review of four general medical journals. Participants Original research articles presenting the primary analyses from phase 2, 3 and 4 parallel-group randomised controlled trials were included. Main outcome measures Time from trial completion to publication. Results The median time from trial completion to publication was 431 days (n = 208, interquartile range 278–618). A multivariable adjusted Cox model found no statistically significant difference in time to publication for trials reporting positive or negative results (hazard ratio: 0.86, 95% CI 0.64 to 1.16, p = 0.32). Conclusion In contrast to previous studies, this review did not demonstrate the presence of time-lag bias in time to publication. This may be a result of these articles being published in four high-impact general medical journals that may be more inclined to publish rapidly, whatever the findings. Further research is needed to explore the presence of time-lag bias in lower quality studies and lower impact journals.

Abstract
Regulatory T cells (Tregs) are a suppressive subset of T cells that have important roles in maintaining self-tolerance and preventing immunopathology. The T-cell receptor (TCR) and its antigen specificity play a dominant role in the differentiation of cells to a Treg fate, either in the thymus or in the periphery. This review focuses on the effects of the TCR and its antigen specificity on Treg biology. The role of Tregs with specificity for self-antigen has primarily been studied in the context of autoimmune disease, although recent studies have focused on their role in steady-state conditions. The role of Tregs that are specific for pathogens, dietary antigens and allergens is much less studied, although recent data suggest a significant and previously underappreciated role for Tregs during memory responses to a wide range of foreign antigens. The development of TCR- or chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-transduced T cells means we are now able to engineer Tregs with disease-relevant antigen specificities, paving the way for ensuring specificity with Treg-based therapies. Understanding the role that antigens play in driving the generation and function of Tregs is critical for defining the pathophysiology of many immune-mediated diseases, and developing new therapeutic interventions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The dynamic component of disc-associated cervical spondylomyelopathy (DA-CSM) currently is evaluated using traction magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), which does not assess changes in flexion and extension of the cervical vertebral column. In humans with cervical spondylotic myelopathy, kinematic MRI is used to identify dynamic compressions. HYPOTHESIS/OBJECTIVES To evaluate the feasibility and utility of kMRI in Doberman Pinschers with DA-CSM using a novel positioning device. We hypothesized that kMRI would identify compressive lesions not observed with neutral positioning and change the dimensions of the spinal cord and cervical vertebral canal. ANIMALS Nine client-owned Doberman Pinschers with DA-CSM. METHODS Prospective study. After standard MR imaging of the cervical spine confirmed DA-CSM, dogs were placed on a positioning device to allow imaging in flexion and extension. Morphologic and morphometric assessments were compared between neutral, flexion, and extension images. RESULTS Flexion was associated with improvement or resolution of spinal cord compression in 4/9 patients, whereas extension caused worsening of compressions in 6/9 patients. Extension identified 6 new compressive lesions and was significantly associated with dorsal and ventral compression at C5-C6 (P = .021) and C6-C7 (P = .031). A significant decrease in spinal cord height occurred at C6-C7 from neutral to extension (P = .003) and in vertebral canal height at C5-C6 and C6-C7 from neutral to extension (P = .011 and .017, respectively). CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL IMPORTANCE Our results suggest that kMRI is feasible and provides additional information beyond what is observed with neutral imaging, primarily when using extension views, in dogs with DA-CSM.

Abstract
Human immunodeficiency virus type-1 (HIV-1) and human T lymphotropic virus type-1 (HTLV-1) infections have complex effects on adaptive immunity, with specific tropism for, but contrasting effects on, CD4 T lymphocytes: depletion with HIV-1, proliferation with HTLV-1. Impaired T lymphocyte function occurs early in HIV-1 infection but opportunistic infections (OIs) rarely occur in the absence of CD4 lymphopenia. In the unusual case where a HIV-1 infected individual with a high CD4 count presents with recurrent OIs, a clinician is faced with the possibility of a second underlying comorbidity. We present a case of pseudo-adult T cell leukemia/lymphoma (ATLL) in HIV-1/HTLV-1 coinfection where the individual fulfilled Shimoyama criteria for chronic ATLL and had pulmonary Mycobacterium kansasii, despite a high CD4 lymphocyte count. However, there was no evidence of clonal T-cell proliferation by T-cell receptor gene rearrangement studies nor of monoclonal HTLV-1 integration by high-throughput sequencing. Mutually beneficial interplay between HIV-1 and HTLV-1, maintaining high level HIV-1 and HTLV-1 viremia and proliferation of poorly functional CD4 cells despite chronicity of infection is a postulated mechanism. Despite good microbiological response to antimycobacterial therapy, the patient remained systemically unwell with refractory anemia. Subsequent initiation of combined antiretroviral therapy led to paradoxical resolution of CD4 T lymphocytosis as well as HIV-1 viral suppression and decreased HTLV-1 proviral load. This is proposed to be the result of attenuation of immune activation post-HIV virological control. This case illustrates the importance of screening for HTLV-1 in HIV-1 patients with appropriate clinical presentation and epidemiological risk factors and explores mechanisms for the complex interactions on HIV-1/HTLV-1 adaptive immunity.

Abstract
Telephone counseling can provide a convenient, accessible, and valuable source of information to the general public, health care providers, and other professionals. In the genetic counseling profession, telephone counseling is often associated with teratogen information services. However, genetic counselors routinely utilize the telephone in a number of different counseling encounters. Nevertheless, the literature provides very little guidance to how that encounter might be conducted, what information should be obtained and provided, or how the encounter should be documented. We present a brief overview of the history of telephone counseling, a description of the major differences between telephone counseling and a face-to-face counseling session, and a framework to optimize a telephone counseling session.

Abstract
Severe aplastic anemia (SAA) is a rare disorder leading to bone marrow failure, which if left untreated, is invariably fatal. Conventional therapies with immunosuppressive therapy or allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) are highly effective. HSCT can offer a greater outcome in younger patients who have an available HLA match-related donor. Recent studies showing the addition of antithymocyte globulin (ATG) to the conditioning regimen improves engraftment and reduces the risk of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD).There are currently two ATG preparations in the USA, equine (or horse) and rabbit ATG. These agents are pharmacologically distinct, having significant differences in their pharmacokinetics and in vivo immunosuppressive effects [N Engl J Med 365(5):430–438, 2011]. Here, we report a case of two monozygotic twins with constitutional SAA that evolved to myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) who both underwent allogeneic peripheral blood stem cell transplantation (PBSC) from the same single HLA antigen mismatched sibling donor with the only difference in the transplant regimen being the type of ATG used in the preparative regimen; one twin received horse ATG and the other received rabbit ATG during conditioning. This report emphasizes that dramatic differences in donor T cell chimerism and clinical outcomes including GVHD can occur as a consequence of the type of ATG that is utilized in the transplant conditioning regimen. These differences highlight that these agents should not be considered interchangeable drugs when used in this setting.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to review the role
of clinical trial networks in orthopaedic surgery. A total of two
electronic databases (MEDLINE and EMBASE) were searched from inception
to September 2013 with no language restrictions. Articles related
to randomised controlled trials (RCTs), research networks and orthopaedic
research, were identified and reviewed. The usefulness of trainee-led
research collaborations is reported and our knowledge of current
clinical trial infrastructure further supplements the review. Searching
yielded 818 titles and abstracts, of which 12 were suitable for
this review. Results are summarised and presented narratively under
the following headings: 1) identifying clinically relevant research
questions; 2) education and training; 3) conduct of multicentre
RCTs and 4) dissemination and adoption of trial results. This review
confirms growing international awareness of the important role research
networks play in supporting trials in orthopaedic surgery. Multidisciplinary
collaboration and adequate investment in trial infrastructure are crucial
for successful delivery of RCTs. Cite this article: Bone Joint Res 2014;3:169–74.

Abstract
Mindfulness-based interventions (MBIs) targeting eating behaviours have gained popularity in recent years. A literature review was conducted to determine the effectiveness of MBIs for treating obesity-related eating behaviours, such as binge eating, emotional eating and external eating. A search protocol was conducted using the online databases Google Scholar, PubMed, PsycINFO and Ovid Healthstar. Papers were required to meet the following criteria to be included in this review: (i) describe a MBI or the use of mindfulness exercises as part of an intervention; (ii) include at least one obesity-related eating behaviour as an outcome; (iii) include quantitative outcomes; and (iv) be published in English in a peer-reviewed journal. A total of N = 21 papers were included in this review. Interventions used a variety of approaches to implement mindfulness training, including combined mindfulness and cognitive behavioural therapies, mindfulness-based stress reduction, acceptance-based therapies, mindful eating programmes, and combinations of mindfulness exercises. Targeted eating behaviour outcomes included binge eating, emotional eating, external eating and dietary intake. Eighteen (86%) of the reviewed studies reported improvements in the targeted eating behaviours. Overall, the results of this first review on the topic support the efficacy of MBIs for changing obesity-related eating behaviours, specifically binge eating, emotional eating and external eating.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Diagnosing autistic spectrum disorder is a challenge, typically involving myriad professionals. In the current climate we explore how diagnosis is managed in the real world by professionals. METHODS Using semi-structured interviews we thematically analyse data from psychiatrists, paediatricians and educational psychologists. RESULTS While there is some consistency across and within these groups there are also a number of variances, and several important issues are highlighted. These include the problem of time and resources, the issue of location for diagnosis, the value of diagnostic tools and schedules, the need for supporting information, the difficulty of multi-agency working, the relevance of a physical examination and the eventual diagnostic label. CONCLUSIONS In the current economic climate and considering changes in guidelines there is a need to evaluate current service provision and enhance services. However, attention needs to be paid to the practical and realistic application of the suggested guidance.

Abstract
Abstract
Background≤br≥Between 2002 and 2011, in the UK, the number of people aged 90 increased by 26%. By 2034 the number of people aged 85 and over, is projected to be 2.5 times larger than in 2009. Life expectancy of 80 year old woman is now 9.4 years.
These population statistics bring challenges to the provision of healthcare in general and Breast Cancer Services will see a significant increase in the number of very elderly patients.
Prior to 2009 it was common place to treat patients aged over 80 with endocrine therapy alone, avoiding surgery, however as the general life expectancy for this age group has improved this is no longer recommended management.
NICE guidelines issued in February 2009 recommend surgery for breast cancer where possible over endocrine treatment
We aim to review the proportion of patients presenting with breast cancer aged over 80, assess their management and survival during a 12 year period and audit patients presenting after 2009 against NICE guideline to explore reasons for noncompliance.
Methods
We have conducted a retrospective audit of all patients presenting with breast cancer to a single high-volume center from 2000-2012.
Patients were identified from a comprehensive departmental database recording patient demographics as well as treatment modality.
For patients treated after 2009, case records were accessed to assess the reasons for omitting surgery.
One-tailed Fisher's Exact Test used throughout to calculate p-values.
Results≤br≥5446 patients were treated at our unit from 2000-2012 with the over 80's comprising 6.0-8.7% p.a.
This age group increased over time by 29% from 6.5% in 2000-2003 to 8.4% (p = 0.0001) in 2009-2012. The population aged 90 or over increased by around 50% from 1.7% to 2.6% (p = 0.06) in the same period.
The table below shows changes in the proportion of patients offered surgery before and after the 2009 guidelines.
Patients Undergoing Breast Cancer SurgeryPatients aged 80-89Patients aged 90 and over2000- 20082009-2012p-value2000-20082009-2012p-value267/396 (67%)172/230 (75%)0.0318/64 (28%)21/47 (44%)0.05
Following introduction of regional anaesthesia without General Anasthesia in 2011, the proportion of patients aged over 90 having surgery, increased further to 16/25 (64% p-0.0031).
In the 10 year period from 2001-2010 the mastectomy rate was 60% in the over 80's and 45% in the over 90 year old, however this difference was not statistically significant (p = 0.29).
We have accurate survival data for 396 patients who died during follow up. No patients died within 12 months of surgery. The median survival was 40 months following surgery and 27 months for patients treated with primary endocrine therapy.
16/218 patients aged 80-89 and 2/111 patients aged over 90 at diagnosis required resectional surgery after relapse on primary endocrine therapy.
Of patients not having surgery after 2009, 48 were deemed unfit and 36 declined surgery.
Conclusions≤br≥The elderly is a growing part of our population of breast cancer patients.
We have increased the proportion of elderly patient having surgery in line with NICE guidance, partly due regional anaesthesia for breast surgery and modification of care pathways. The relapse rate following primary endocrine therapy was very low in the most elderly patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Among trauma patients who survive to reach hospital, exsanguination is a common cause of death. A widely practicable treatment that reduces blood loss after trauma could prevent thousands of premature deaths each year. The CRASH-2 trial aimed to determine the effect of the early administration of tranexamic acid on death and transfusion requirement in bleeding trauma patients. In addition, the effort of tranexamic acid on the risk of vascular occlusive events was assessed. OBJECTIVE Tranexamic acid (TXA) reduces bleeding in patients undergoing elective surgery. We assessed the effects and cost-effectiveness of the early administration of a short course of TXA on death, vascular occlusive events and the receipt of blood transfusion in trauma patients. DESIGN Randomised placebo-controlled trial and economic evaluation. Randomisation was balanced by centre, with an allocation sequence based on a block size of eight, generated with a computer random number generator. Both participants and study staff (site investigators and trial co-ordinating centre staff) were masked to treatment allocation. All analyses were by intention to treat. A Markov model was used to assess cost-effectiveness. The health outcome was the number of life-years (LYs) gained. Cost data were obtained from hospitals, the World Health Organization database and UK reference costs. Cost-effectiveness was measured in international dollars ($) per LY. Deterministic and probabilistic sensitivity analyses were performed to test the robustness of the results to model assumptions. SETTING Two hundred and seventy-four hospitals in 40 countries. PARTICIPANTS Adult trauma patients (n = 20,211) with, or at risk of, significant bleeding who were within 8 hours of injury. INTERVENTIONS Tranexamic acid (loading dose 1 g over 10 minutes then infusion of 1 g over 8 hours) or matching placebo. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES The primary outcome was death in hospital within 4 weeks of injury, and was described with the following categories: bleeding, vascular occlusion (myocardial infarction, stroke and pulmonary embolism), multiorgan failure, head injury and other. RESULTS Patients were allocated to TXA (n = 10,096) and to placebo (n = 10,115), of whom 10,060 and 10,067 patients, respectively, were analysed. All-cause mortality at 28 days was significantly reduced by TXA [1463 patients (14.5%) in the TXA group vs 1613 patients (16.0%) in the placebo group; relative risk (RR) 0.91; 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.85 to 0.97; p = 0.0035]. The risk of death due to bleeding was significantly reduced [489 patients (4.9%) died in the TXA group vs 574 patients (5.7%) in the placebo group; RR 0.85; 95% CI 0.76 to 0.96; p = 0.0077]. We recorded strong evidence that the effect of TXA on death due to bleeding varied according to the time from injury to treatment (test for interaction p < 0.0001). Early treatment (≤ 1 hour from injury) significantly reduced the risk of death due to bleeding [198 out of 3747 patients (5.3%) died in the TXA group vs 286 out of 3704 patients (7.7%) in the placebo group; RR 0.68; 95% CI 0.57 to 0.82; p < 0.0001]. Treatment given between 1 and 3 hours also reduced the risk of death due to bleeding [147 out of 3037 patients (4.8%) died in the TXA group vs 184 out of 2996 patients (6.1%) in the placebo group; RR 0.79; 95% CI 0.64 to 0.97; p = 0.03]. Treatment given after 3 hours seemed to increase the risk of death due to bleeding [144 out of 3272 patients (4.4%) died in the TXA group vs 103 out of 3362 patients (3.1%) in the placebo group; RR 1.44; 95% CI1.12 to 1.84; p = 0.004]. We recorded no evidence that the effect of TXA on death due to bleeding varied by systolic blood pressure, Glasgow Coma Scale score or type of injury. Administering TXA to bleeding trauma patients within 3 hours of injury saved an estimated 755 LYs per 1000 trauma patients in the UK. The cost of giving TXA to 1000 patients was estimated at $30,830. The incremental cost of giving TXA compared with not giving TXA was $48,002. The incremental cost per LY gained of administering TXA was $64. CONCLUSIONS Early administration of TXA safely reduced the risk of death in bleeding trauma patients and is highly cost-effective. Treatment beyond 3 hours of injury is unlikely to be effective. Future work [the Clinical Randomisation of an Antifibrinolytic in Significant Head injury-3 (CRASH-3) trial] will evaluate the effectiveness and safety of TXA in the treatments of isolated traumatic brain injury (http://crash3.lshtm.ac.uk/).

Abstract
Experimentally naive rats were trained to key press on a fixed-ratio 10 schedule of food reinforcement by a completely automatic procedure within a single, 1-hr session. Control procedures demonstrated that the resulting behavior was an operant, under control of the schedule of reinforcement and the specified reinforcing stimulus (food). A simple, combination food-tray operandum, also described, was used as the basis for the training technique.

Abstract
7023 Background: SR-GVHD is a frequent and often fatal complication of HCT. A variety of inflammatory cytokines have been implicated in the pathogenesis of GVHD; single agent therapy against targets such as the IL-2 receptor α chain (daclizumab) or TNF-α (infliximab) has modest activity in SR-GVHD. We hypothesized that concomitant blockade of both TNF-α and IL-2 pathways would be more effective in controlling SR-GVHD than inhibition of either cytokine alone. Methods: The incidence of and outcome following SR-GVHD in 141 pts undergoing nonmyeloablative HCT from an HLA-matched family donor at our institution between February 2001 and November 2008 were analyzed. All SR-GVHD pts were treated with a combination of daclizumab (1 mg/kg, days1, 4, 8, 15, 22) and infliximab (10 mg/kg, days1, 8, 15, 22); in addition, aspergillus prophylaxis, empiric broad-spectrum antibiotics, and a rapid reduction in the dose of corticosteroids was initiated in order to minimize the risk of opportunistic infections associated with immunosuppression. Results: Twenty-three pts (23/141, 16%) developed SR-GVHD (median age 35 y, range 17–65 y); involved organs included the GI tract (n = 23), liver (n = 3), and skin (n = 8). We observed a remarkably high response rate following therapy, with 20/23 (87%) pts experiencing complete resolution of GVHD. Responses were usually delayed (median onset 2 weeks) but durable. The most notable complication associated with therapy was the development of opportunistic infections (invasive fungal infections in 3 pts); in 2/3 of these cases, prophylactic antifungal therapy had been discontinued prematurely due to drug toxicity. The median survival for the SR-GVHD cohort was 255 days (range 67–2,148 days), with 10/23 pts surviving at the time of this analysis. Causes of death included underlying cancer (5 pts), CMV disease (2 pts), and infectious complications (5 pts). Conclusions: These data suggest combined TNF-α /IL-2 blockade is a highly effective therapeutic option for pts with SR-GVHD and highlight the need for aggressive antimicrobial prophylaxis in the management of this condition. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

e16542 Background: A phase II trial was performed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of gefitinib and to explore epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR, sEGFR), estrogen receptor (ER) and progesterone receptor (PRA, PRB) expression in persistent/recurrent endometrial cancer (EC). Methods: Women with histologically-confirmed, measurable, persistent/recurrent EC following one or two prior regimens were eligible and treated with 500 mg oral gefitinib daily until progression or severe toxicity. A 2-stage group sequential design was used to evaluate the regimen with PFS at 6 months as the primary endpoint. The trial had a 10% type I error rate with 90% power. sEGFR was quantified in serum and categorized at the median (1960 fmol/ml). Mutations in exons 18–21 of EGFR and IHC-expression of EGFR, pEGFR, ER, PRA, PRB, pERK, or Ki67 were examined in tumors. Results: Of the 29 enrolled, 26 were evaluable for efficacy and toxicity. Four had PFS ≥6 months, 1 had a complete response, 7 had stable disease, 16 had progressive disease and 2 were indeterminate. High pre-cycle 1 sEGFR level was favorably associated with OS (hazard ratio = 0.33, 95% confidence interval = 0.13–0.84). A mutation in exon 18 of EGFR (E709K) was observed but was not associated with clinical outcome. None of the tumor markers was associated with response, PFS, or OS. Among some of the notable correlations observed in primary tumor expression were ER with PRA (r = 0.504), EGFR with pERK (r = 0.802), and pEGFR with pERK (r = 0.728). Changes in expression were notable for pEGFR (increasing) and pERK (increasing) in primary versus pre-treatment persistent/recurrent tumor. Conclusions: The regimen was tolerable but lacked sufficient efficacy to warrant further evaluation in this setting, however, the association between serum sEGFR and OS, correlations between tumor markers, and changes in expression of pEGFR and pERK are interesting and should be validated in future investigations. This study was supported by NIH grant R01CA099908 and NCI grants CA27469, CA11479 and CA37517. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

Abstract
BACKGROUND While there is considerable epidemiologic evidence that cardiovascular risk factors increase risk of incident Alzheimer disease (AD), few studies have examined their effect on progression after an established AD diagnosis. OBJECTIVE To examine the effect of vascular factors, and potential age modification, on rate of progression in a longitudinal study of incident dementia. METHODS A total of 135 individuals with incident AD, identified in a population-based sample of elderly persons in Cache County, UT, were followed with in-home visits for a mean of 3.0 years (range: 0.8 to 9.5) and 2.1 follow-up visits (range: 1 to 5). The Clinical Dementia Rating (CDR) Scale and Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) were administered at each visit. Baseline vascular factors were determined by interview and physical examination. Generalized least-squares random-effects regression was performed with CDR Sum of Boxes (CDR-Sum) or MMSE as the outcome, and vascular index or individual vascular factors as independent variables. RESULTS Atrial fibrillation, systolic hypertension, and angina were associated with more rapid decline on both the CDR-Sum and MMSE, while history of coronary artery bypass graft surgery, diabetes, and antihypertensive medications were associated with a slower rate of decline. There was an age interaction such that systolic hypertension, angina, and myocardial infarction were associated with greater decline with increasing baseline age. CONCLUSION Atrial fibrillation, hypertension, and angina were associated with a greater rate of decline and may represent modifiable risk factors for secondary prevention in Alzheimer disease. The attenuated decline for diabetes and coronary artery bypass graft surgery may be due to selective survival. Some of these effects appear to vary with age.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To investigate the outcome of limited ileo-caecal resection in children with localised Crohn's disease (CD) and determine predictors of further surgery. METHODS Review of children diagnosed with CD and operated on for ileo-caecal disease from 1995 to 2005. Age at diagnosis, endoscopic disease distribution, indication for surgery, site of recurrence and date of last follow-up were recorded. Surgery required removal of only the ileo-caecal junction and caecal pole with removal of the minimum terminal ileal length. RESULTS Thirty seven children underwent intestinal resection. Time between primary operation and most recent follow-up was 3.8 years (range 1 month-8.8 years). Indications for surgery were obstruction/stricture (20), treatment-resistant disease (13) and abscess/perforation peritonitis (4). Follow-up was available in 32. Nine (28%) required re-laparotomy. Median time to second laparotomy was 12 months (range 4-58 months). Eighteen children required no endoscopies after surgery (median follow-up 3.4 years). CONCLUSION Most conservative surgery occurs about 2 years after diagnosis. About 1 in 4 children have a further laparotomy within 12 months. Over half of these require division of adhesions. Limited ileo-caecal resection for localized Crohn's disease is not associated with early peri-anastomotic recurrence. Developments in laparoscopic surgery are likely to further reduce complications from adhesions.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to evaluate the incidence of peripartum myocardial ischemia in Canada. STUDY DESIGN We identified the cohort of women who were admitted to Canadian hospitals for delivery between 1970 and 1998 to calculate the incidence rate and to evaluate potential risk factors. RESULTS One hundred fourteen of 10,032,375 women delivered in Canadian hospitals between 1970 and 1998 had peripartum myocardial ischemia recorded as a discharge diagnosis. The overall crude incidence rate was 1.1 (95% confidence interval 0.93, 1.37) women with peripartum myocardial ischemia per 100,000 women delivering per year as noted in the Canadian Hospital Morbidity database. Rates did not increase over time but increased with maternal age. Identified risk factors were diabetes mellitus, hyperlipidemia, and chronic heart disease. The case fatality rate among women with the disease was 1.8%. CONCLUSION The incidence of peripartum myocardial ischemia did not increase between 1970 and 1998 in Canada, despite an aging cohort with more prevalent medical comorbidities. Maternal mortality from this event is lower than previously described.
