Abstract
OBJECTIVE To examine differential changes in receipt of surgery at National Cancer Institute (NCI)-designated comprehensive cancer centers (NCI-CCC) and Commission on Cancer (CoC) accredited hospitals for patients with cancer more likely to be newly eligible for coverage under Affordable Care Act (ACA) insurance expansions, relative to those less likely to have been impacted by the ACA. DATA SOURCES AND STUDY SETTING Pennsylvania Cancer Registry (PCR) for 2010-2019 linked with discharge records from the Pennsylvania Health Care Cost Containment Council (PHC4). STUDY DESIGN Outcomes include whether cancer surgery was performed at an NCI-CCC or a CoC-accredited hospital. We conducted a difference-in-differences analysis, estimating linear probability models for each outcome that control for residence in a county with above median county-level pre-ACA uninsurance and the interaction between county-level baseline uninsurance and cancer treatment post-ACA to capture differential changes in access between those more and less likely to become newly eligible for insurance coverage (based on area-level proxy). All models control for age, sex, race and ethnicity, cancer site and stage, census-tract level urban/rural residence, Area Deprivation Index, and year- and county-fixed effects. DATA COLLECTION/EXTRACTION METHODS We identified adults aged 26-64 in PCR with prostate, lung, or colorectal cancer who received cancer-directed surgery and had a corresponding surgery discharge record in PHC4. PRINCIPAL FINDINGS We observe a differential increase in receiving care at an NCI-CCC of 6.2 percentage points (95% CI: 2.6-9.8; baseline mean = 9.8%) among patients in high baseline uninsurance areas (p = 0.001). Our estimate of the differential change in care at the larger set of CoC hospitals is positive (3.9 percentage points [95% CI: -0.5-8.2; baseline mean = 73.7%]) but not statistically significant (p = 0.079). CONCLUSIONS Our findings suggest that insurance expansions under the ACA were associated with increased access to NCI-CCCs.

Abstract
We present a measurement of η production from neutrino interactions on argon with the MicroBooNE detector. The modeling of resonant neutrino interactions on argon is a critical aspect of the neutrino oscillation physics program being carried out by the DUNE and Short Baseline Neutrino programs. η production in neutrino interactions provides a powerful new probe of resonant interactions, complementary to pion channels, and is particularly suited to the study of higher-order resonances beyond the Δ(1232). We measure a flux-integrated cross section for neutrino-induced η production on argon of 3.22±0.84(stat)±0.86(syst) 10^{-41} cm^{2}/nucleon. By demonstrating the successful reconstruction of the two photons resulting from η production, this analysis enables a novel calibration technique for electromagnetic showers in GeV accelerator neutrino experiments.

We present the first search for heavy neutral leptons (HNLs) decaying into νe^{+}e^{-} or νπ^{0} final states in a liquid-argon time projection chamber using data collected with the MicroBooNE detector. The data were recorded synchronously with the NuMI neutrino beam from Fermilab's main injector corresponding to a total exposure of 7.01×10^{20} protons on target. We set upper limits at the 90% confidence level on the mixing parameter |U_{μ4}|^{2} in the mass ranges 10≤m_{HNL}≤150 MeV for the νe^{+}e^{-} channel and 150≤m_{HNL}≤245 MeV for the νπ^{0} channel, assuming |U_{e4}|^{2}=|U_{τ4}|^{2}=0. These limits represent the most stringent constraints in the mass range 35

Abstract
We present a new measurement of the positive muon magnetic anomaly, a_{μ}≡(g_{μ}-2)/2, from the Fermilab Muon g-2 Experiment using data collected in 2019 and 2020. We have analyzed more than 4 times the number of positrons from muon decay than in our previous result from 2018 data. The systematic error is reduced by more than a factor of 2 due to better running conditions, a more stable beam, and improved knowledge of the magnetic field weighted by the muon distribution, ω[over ˜]_{p}^{'}, and of the anomalous precession frequency corrected for beam dynamics effects, ω_{a}. From the ratio ω_{a}/ω[over ˜]_{p}^{'}, together with precisely determined external parameters, we determine a_{μ}=116 592 057(25)×10^{-11} (0.21 ppm). Combining this result with our previous result from the 2018 data, we obtain a_{μ}(FNAL)=116 592 055(24)×10^{-11} (0.20 ppm). The new experimental world average is a_{μ}(exp)=116 592 059(22)×10^{-11} (0.19 ppm), which represents a factor of 2 improvement in precision.

Abstract
We report the first measurement of flux-integrated double-differential quasielasticlike neutrino-argon cross sections, which have been made using the Booster Neutrino Beam and the MicroBooNE detector at Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory. The data are presented as a function of kinematic imbalance variables which are sensitive to nuclear ground-state distributions and hadronic reinteraction processes. We find that the measured cross sections in different phase-space regions are sensitive to different nuclear effects. Therefore, they enable the impact of specific nuclear effects on the neutrino-nucleus interaction to be isolated more completely than was possible using previous single-differential cross section measurements. Our results provide precision data to help test and improve neutrino-nucleus interaction models. They further support ongoing neutrino-oscillation studies by establishing phase-space regions where precise reaction modeling has already been achieved.

Abstract
We present the first measurement of the cross section of Cabibbo-suppressed Λ baryon production, using data collected with the MicroBooNE detector when exposed to the neutrinos from the main injector beam at the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory. The data analyzed correspond to 2.2×10^{20} protons on target running in neutrino mode, and 4.9×10^{20} protons on target running in anti-neutrino mode. An automated selection is combined with hand scanning, with the former identifying five candidate Λ production events when the signal was unblinded, consistent with the GENIE prediction of 5.3±1.1 events. Several scanners were employed, selecting between three and five events, compared with a prediction from a blinded Monte Carlo simulation study of 3.7±1.0 events. Restricting the phase space to only include Λ baryons that decay above MicroBooNE's detection thresholds, we obtain a flux averaged cross section of 2.0_{-1.7}^{+2.2}×10^{-40} cm^{2}/Ar, where statistical and systematic uncertainties are combined.

Abstract
We present a search for eV-scale sterile neutrino oscillations in the MicroBooNE liquid argon detector, simultaneously considering all possible appearance and disappearance effects within the 3+1 active-to-sterile neutrino oscillation framework. We analyze the neutrino candidate events for the recent measurements of charged-current ν_{e} and ν_{μ} interactions in the MicroBooNE detector, using data corresponding to an exposure of 6.37×10^{20} protons on target from the Fermilab booster neutrino beam. We observe no evidence of light sterile neutrino oscillations and derive exclusion contours at the 95% confidence level in the plane of the mass-squared splitting Δm_{41}^{2} and the sterile neutrino mixing angles θ_{μe} and θ_{ee}, excluding part of the parameter space allowed by experimental anomalies. Cancellation of ν_{e} appearance and ν_{e} disappearance effects due to the full 3+1 treatment of the analysis leads to a degeneracy when determining the oscillation parameters, which is discussed in this Letter and will be addressed by future analyses.

Abstract
313 Background: Transitional Care Management initiatives (TCM) financially support comprehensive outpatient followup in the first 30 days after acute care discharge. TCM programs require patient contact within 2 days of discharge, an outpatient appointment within 7-14 days, patient education, and moderate-high complexity medical decision-making that supports successful outpatient transition. To date, TCM is often utilized to provide additional reimbursement for qualifying primary care post-discharge followup, but could be applied to align incentives in busy oncology practices. We present a novel application of TCM to enhance post-discharge cancer care with the goal of reducing readmissions for high-risk oncology patients. Methods: We identified patients discharged from our health system’s cancer hospital with a “Highest” risk of readmission as determined by an internally developed machine learning clinical algorithm built into the EMR. Patients were targeted with a post-discharge phone call within 48 hours offering an in-person or telemedicine appointment within 72 hours. The Transitional Care Clinic (TCC) visit guidelines promote connection to ancillary services such as physical and occupational therapy, medication management, and dietetics. The TCC can offer interventions to address emergent medical needs such as fluids, transfusions, and symptom management. Results: In the first three months of the TCC program, the 30-day readmission risk algorithm identified 136 cancer patients discharged from the designated cancer hospital in the “Highest” readmission risk category. 121 of those patients were previously admitted within one year. 72 of the 136 “Highest” risk patients were referred to the cancer center TCC workflow and 60 patients were eligible for a TCC appointment. 18 patients had appointments scheduled (30%) with 83% completed (15/18). 22% of scheduled appointments were via telemedicine (4/18) and 100% of these appointments were completed. Conclusions: TCM programs can be adapted to reward timely hospital followup for oncology patients after discharge. TCM requirements overlap with several common elements of readmission reduction initiatives, but EMR tools for identifying patients at highest readmission risk may need additional adaptation into clinic workflows to promote a high capture rate that justifies program support. Future longitudinal cohort analysis will establish if the TCC is able to reduce cancer-related readmissions in high-risk populations.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The recent monkeypox disease outbreak is another significant threat during the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. This viral disease is zoonotic and contagious. The viral disease outbreak is considered the substantial infection possessed by the Orthopoxvirus family species after the smallpox virus' obliteration, a representative of the same family. It has potentially threatened the Republic of Congo's regions and certain African subcontinent zones. Although repeated outbreaks have been reported in several parts of the world, as conferred from the epidemiological data, very little is explored about the disease landscape. Thus, here we have reviewed the current status of the monkeypox virus along with therapeutic options available to humanity. MATERIALS AND METHODS We have accessed and reviewed the available literature on the monkeypox virus to highlight its epidemiology, pathogenicity, virulence, and therapeutic options available. For the review, we have searched different literature and database such as PubMed, PubMed Central, Google Scholar, Web of Science, Scopus, etc., using different keywords such as "monkeypox", "Orthopox", "smallpox", "recent monkeypox outbreak", "therapeutic strategies", "monkeypox vaccines", etc. This review has included most of the significant references from 1983 to 2022. RESULTS It has been reported that the monkeypox virus shows a remarkable similarity with smallpox during the ongoing outbreak. Sometimes, it creates considerable confusion due to misdiagnosis and similarity with smallpox. The misdiagnosis of the disease should be immediately corrected by rendering some cutting-edge techniques especially intended to isolate the monkeypox virus. The pathophysiology and the histopathological data imply the immediate need to design effective therapeutics to confer resistance against the monkeypox virus. Most importantly, the potential implications of the disease are not given importance due to the lack of awareness programs. Moreover, specific evolutionary evidence is crucial for designing effective therapeutic strategies that confer high resistance, particularly against this species. CONCLUSIONS The review focuses on a brief overview of the recent monkeypox virus outbreak, infection biology, epidemiology, transmission, clinical symptoms, and therapeutic aspects. Such an attempt will support researchers, policymakers, and healthcare professionals for better treatment and containment of the infection caused by the monkeypox virus.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The rational use of medicines as per the World Health Organization (WHO) should be practiced globally. However, data regarding the completeness of the prescriptions and their rational use is lacking from developing countries like India. Thus, the aim of this study was to assess the prescribing patterns of drugs and completeness of prescriptions as per WHO core drug use and complementary indicators to provide real-life examples for the Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR) online prescribing skill course for medical graduates. METHODS Prescriptions of the patients, fulfilling inclusion criteria, attending Outpatient Departments of various specialties of tertiary care hospitals, were collected by thirteen ICMR Rational use of medicines centers located in tertiary care hospitals, throughout India. Prescriptions were evaluated for rational use of medicines according to the WHO guidelines and for appropriateness as per standard treatment guidelines using a common protocol approved by local Ethics committees. RESULTS Among 4838 prescriptions, an average of about three drugs (3.34) was prescribed to the patients per prescription. Polypharmacy was noted in 83.05% of prescriptions. Generic drugs were prescribed in 47.58% of the prescriptions. Further, antimicrobials were prescribed in 17.63% of the prescriptions and only 4.98% of prescriptions were with injectables. During the prescription evaluation, 38.65% of the prescriptions were incomplete due to multiple omissions such as dose, duration, and formulation. CONCLUSION Most of the parameters in the present study were out of the range of WHO-recommended prescribing indicators. Therefore, effective intervention program, like training, for the promotion of rational drug use practice was recommended to improve the prescribing pattern of drugs and the quality of prescriptions all over the country.

Abstract
This theoretical work initiates contact between two frontier disciplines of physics, namely, atomic superfluid rotation and cavity optomechanics. It considers an annular Bose-Einstein condensate, which exhibits dissipationless flow and is a paradigm of rotational quantum physics, inside a cavity excited by optical fields carrying orbital angular momentum. It provides the first platform that can sense ring Bose-Einstein condensate rotation with minimal destruction, in situ and in real time, unlike demonstrated techniques, all of which involve fully destructive measurement. It also shows how light can actively manipulate rotating matter waves by optomechanically entangling persistent currents. Our work opens up a novel and useful direction in the sensing and manipulation of atomic superflow.

Abstract
Purpose
The Autism-Spectrum Quotient (AQ) is a widely used tool to quantify autistic traits in the general population. This study aims to report the distribution, group differences and factor structure of autistic traits in Indian general population. The work also assesses the criterion validity of AQ across three patient group samples – autism spectrum disorder (ASD), obsessive-compulsive disorder and social anxiety disorder.
Design/methodology/approach
In this study, psychometric properties of the adapted AQ were assessed among 450 neurotypical university students matched for age. Confirmatory factor analysis was done to see if the adapted AQ fits the original factor structure. Test–retest, internal consistency reliability and criterion validity were found out. Group differences (gender and field of study) in AQ were also assessed.
Findings
Autistic traits were found to be continuously distributed in the population, and patterns of group differences were consistent with previous studies. The adapted AQ had five factors resembling the original factor structure with a good fit, and 38 items instead of the original 50 items. Acceptable reliability coefficients were demonstrated along with criterion validity across clinical groups.
Originality/value
This work is the first to present the pattern of distribution and factor structure of autistic traits among neurotypical adults from Eastern India, a culturally different population, as well as a reliable and valid tool to assess autistic traits in Bengali, a language with 300 million speakers. The findings add to the growing literature on AQ measurement and the concept of autism as a quantitative trait, examined outside of the western samples.

Abstract
We present the first results of the Fermilab National Accelerator Laboratory (FNAL) Muon g-2 Experiment for the positive muon magnetic anomaly a_{μ}≡(g_{μ}-2)/2. The anomaly is determined from the precision measurements of two angular frequencies. Intensity variation of high-energy positrons from muon decays directly encodes the difference frequency ω_{a} between the spin-precession and cyclotron frequencies for polarized muons in a magnetic storage ring. The storage ring magnetic field is measured using nuclear magnetic resonance probes calibrated in terms of the equivalent proton spin precession frequency ω[over ˜]_{p}^{'} in a spherical water sample at 34.7 °C. The ratio ω_{a}/ω[over ˜]_{p}^{'}, together with known fundamental constants, determines a_{μ}(FNAL)=116 592 040(54)×10^{-11} (0.46 ppm). The result is 3.3 standard deviations greater than the standard model prediction and is in excellent agreement with the previous Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL) E821 measurement. After combination with previous measurements of both μ^{+} and μ^{-}, the new experimental average of a_{μ}(Exp)=116 592 061(41)×10^{-11} (0.35 ppm) increases the tension between experiment and theory to 4.2 standard deviations.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Recent pandemic virus SARS-CoV-2 is a global warning for the healthcare system. The spike protein of virus SARS-CoV-2 is significant because of two reasons. Firstly, the spike protein of this virus binds with the human ACE2 (hACE2) receptor. Secondly, it has several antigenic regions that might be targeted for vaccine development. However, the structural analytical data for the spike protein of this virus is not available. MATERIALS AND METHODS Here, we performed an analysis to understand the structural two subunits of S glycoprotein (S gp) of SARS-CoV-2. Further, an analysis of secondary structure components and the tertiary structure analysis of RBD was carried out. We also performed molecular interaction analysis between S gp of this virus and hACE2 as well as between SARS-CoV S gp and hACE2 to compare the binding properties of these two viruses. RESULTS We noted that the molecular interaction of SARS-CoV-2 S gp and hACE2 form eleven hydrogen bonds, while the molecular interaction of SARS-CoV S gp and hACE2 receptor form seven hydrogen bonds, indicating that the molecular interaction of SARS-CoV-2 S gp and hACE2 receptor is more stable than SARS-CoV S gp and hACE2 receptor. The pairwise sequence alignment of S gp SARS-CoV and SARS-CoV-2 shows several conserved residues of these two proteins. Besides, conserved pattern analysis of SARS-CoV-2 S gp and hACE2 revealed the presence of several highly conserved regions for these two proteins. The molecular dynamics simulation shows a stable interplay between SARS-CoV-2 S gp with the hACE2 receptor. CONCLUSIONS The present study might help determine the SARS-CoV-2 virus entrance mechanism into the human cell. Moreover, the understanding of the conserved regions may help in the process of therapeutic development from the infection of the deadly virus.

Abstract
Abstract
INTRODUCTION
We previously reported to SNO, high levels of psychosocial distress in adult patients with primary brain tumors (PBTs), particularly during the first 6 months following diagnosis. The purpose of this follow-up study was to identify patterns of distress among older (≥ 65 years) patients with glioblastoma (GBM) compared to their younger (ages 18-64) counterparts.
METHODS
In our initial cross-sectional study, we collected the National Comprehensive Cancer Network’s Distress Thermometer (NCCN-DT) and problem list from adult patients with PBTs (WHO grades I-IV) seen at our institution between December 2013 and February 2016. We performed subsequent analyses on a subset of patients with GBM.
RESULTS
We identified 343 patients with GBM from the original dataset, of which 23.0% (n= 78) were ≥ 65 years old. The proportion of patients ≥ 65 years old with elevated distress (i.e. DT ≥ 4) was greater than the proportion of younger patients reporting elevated distress (47.4% vs 30.6%; p= 0.0068). Elevated distress was significantly greater during the first 6 months post diagnosis for all ages (p= 0.008). In subgroup analyses, a decrease in distress beyond 6 months was seen in younger patients (45.7% vs 27.4%; p= 0.021), but not in older patients. In older patients, a greater number of problems were selected on the NCCN DT and problem list tool: emotional and physical concerns were reported more frequently compared to their younger counterparts. Older patients were more likely to report difficulty with “bathing” and “getting around” (p= 0.009, p< 0.001, respectively). There were no differences in older versus younger GBM patients with regard to housing, transportation, treatment decisions, depression, fatigue, or memory.
CONCLUSIONS
In contrast to their younger counterparts, older patients with GBM experienced elevated levels of distress and a greater absolute number of specific psychosocial problems, mostly related to emotional and physical concerns.

Abstract
Purpose
Autism spectrum disorders (ASD) are heterogeneous disorders, and heterogeneity lies both at genetic and phenotypic levels. To better understand the etiology and pathway that may contribute to autism symptomatology, it is important to study milder expressions of autism characteristics – autistic traits or milder expressions of autism phenotype, especially in intergenerational context. This study aims to see the trend of association, if any, between child autism symptom and mothers’ autism phenotype as well as mothers’ theory of mind and to see if mothers’ theory of mind was associated with their own autistic traits.
Design/methodology/approach
Data were collected from 96 mothers of children with varying symptom severity of autism (mild, moderate and severe) using Autism Spectrum Quotient and faux pas recognition test. Analysis of variance, trend analysis and t-test were done.
Findings
Results showed a linear trend of relationship between mothers’ autism phenotype and child symptom severity. However, the groups did not have significant differences in theory of mind. Only a few components of theory of mind were found to be associated with autistic traits. These findings question the prevailing idea that theory of mind can be a reliable endophenotype of autism.
Research limitations/implications
There has been a lack of research assessing the possible link between parents’ autism phenotype and symptom severity of ASD children. This study is a preliminary step towards that direction. This study indicates a probability of shared genetic liability between mothers and offspring, which would have important consequences for understanding the mechanisms that lead to autism.
Practical implications
This study offers implications for treatment planning of those with clinical ASD. An awareness of parental factors is critical for any holistic intervention plan when a family seeks treatment for their child. This study suggests that while individualising interventions, clinicians may consider possible presence of high levels of autistic traits and related cognitive features present in the probands’ parents.
Originality/value
There has been lack of research assessing the possible link between parents’ autism phenotype and symptom severity of ASD children. This study, even though preliminary, is a step towards that direction. This study suggests that autism traits might be influenced by common genetic variation and indicates a probability of shared genetic liability between mothers and offspring, which would have important consequences for understanding the mechanisms that lead to autism.

Abstract
SARS-CoV-2 is responsible for the outbreak of severe respiratory illness (COVID-19) in Wuhan City, China and is now spreading rapidly throughout the world. The prompt outbreak of COVID-19 and its quick spread without any controllable measure defines the severity of the situation. In this crisis, a collective pool of knowledge about the advancement of clinical diagnostic and management for COVID-19 is a prerequisite. Here, we summarize all the available updates on the multidisciplinary approaches for the advancement of diagnosis and proposed therapeutic strategies for COVID-19. Moreover, the review discusses different aspects of the COVID-19, including its epidemiology; incubation period; the general clinical features of patients; the clinical features of intensive care unit (ICU) patients; SARS-CoV-2 infection in the presence of co-morbid diseases and the clinical features of pediatric patients infected with the SARS-CoV-2. Advances in various diagnostic approaches, such as the use of real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), chest radiography, and computed tomography (CT) imaging; and other modern diagnostic methods, for this infection have been highlighted. However, due to the unavailability of adequate evidence, presently there are no officially approved drugs or vaccines available against SARS-CoV-2. Additionally, we have discussed various therapeutic strategies for COVID-19 under different categories, like the possible treatment plans with drug (antiviral drugs and anti-cytokines) therapy for disease prevention. Lastly, potentials candidates for the vaccines against SARS-CoV-2 infection have been described. Collectively, the review provides an overview of the SARS-CoV-2 infection outbreak along with the recent advancements and strategies for diagnosis and therapy of COVID-19.

Abstract
We present theoretical and experimental investigations of higher order correlations of mechanical motion in the recently demonstrated optical tweezer phonon laser, consisting of a silica nanosphere trapped in vacuum by a tightly focused optical beam [R. M. Pettit et al., Nature Photonics 13, 402 (2019)]. The nanoparticle phonon number probability distribution is modeled with the master equation formalism in order to study its evolution across the lasing threshold. Up to fourth-order equal-time correlation functions are then derived from the probability distribution. Subsequently, the master equation is transformed into a nonlinear quantum Langevin equation for the trapped particle's position. This equation yields the non-equal-time correlations, also up to fourth order. Finally, we present experimental measurements of the phononic correlation functions, which are in good agreement with our theoretical predictions. We also compare the experimental data to existing analytical Ginzburg-Landau theory where we find only a partial match.

Abstract
Assessment of temperature effect on plant resistance against diseases has become essential under climate change scenario as temperature rise is anticipated to modify host resistance. To determine temperature influence on resistance gene, a pair of near-isogenic rice lines differing for the Pi54 resistance gene was assessed against leaf blast. Blast resistance was determined as the extent of infection efficiency (IE) and sporulation (SP) at suboptimal (22 °C and 32 °C) and optimal temperature (27 °C) of pathogen aggressiveness. Relative resistance for IE and SP was higher at suboptimal temperature as compared to that of optimal temperature. Maximum level of resistance was at 22 °C where higher levels of expression of Pi54 and defence-regulatory transcription factor WRKY45 were also noted. At 32 °C, although some level of resistance noted, but level of Pi54 and WRKY45 expression was too low, suggesting that resistance recorded at higher temperature was due to reduced pathogen aggressiveness. At the optimal temperature for pathogen aggressiveness, comparatively lower levels of Pi54 and WRKY45 expression suggest possible temperature-induced interruption of the defence processes. The variation in resistance patterns modulated by temperature is appeared to be due to pathogen's sensitivity to temperature that leads to varying levels of Pi54 gene activation. Quick and violent activity of the pathogen at optimal temperature came into sight for the interruption of defence process activated by Pi54 gene. Evaluation of blast resistance genes under variable temperature conditions together with weather data could be applied in screening rice genotypes for selection of resistance having resilience to temperature rise.

Purpose As international health systems set goals to improve and expand access to cancer care services, the global health community has applied evidence-based principles to develop resource-stratified pathways for cancer detection, diagnosis, and treatment. The Breast Health Global Initiative (BHGI) defines four detailed sets of infrastructure at the levels of basic, limited, enhanced, and maximal. Operationalizing these pathways to improve and expand breast cancer care requires an assessment of current resource availability and use, as well as an understanding of how clinical stakeholders value and prioritize various modalities. This study adapted the BHGI framework for breast cancer diagnostics to characterize the natural state of health system capabilities in India. This work aims to contribute to the validation of the resource stratification schema while collecting implicit practitioner impressions of an aspirational resource level, as would be codified by a national standard. Methods We interviewed oncologists at public and private hospitals in six urban areas throughout India with a multisection survey tool about the effects of cancer care infrastructure on patient care. In this section, respondents filled out a grid representation of 30 BHGI 2.5 diagnostic modalities divided into clinical tools, imaging and laboratory tests, and pathology. Respondents indicated whether they currently used each modality, and whether they would recommend that this should be included in a national standard of breast cancer care for India. Results At least three fourths of respondents indicated that they personally use 21 of the diagnostic modalities (n = 52), but only recommended 15 modalities for the national standard (n = 50). The top 11 modalities currently used included six basic, three limited, and two enhanced, whereas the top 11 modalities recommended for the national standard included four basic, one limited, three enhanced, and three maximal. Conclusion Diagnostic modalities consistently used by urban oncologists are not fully congruent with the group’s collective vision for a national standard of care, nor do the oncologists recommend a consistently more basic or limited national approach compared with urban practice. These heterogeneous results indicate that expanding breast cancer care in India will likely require dynamic recalibration of goal resource level definitions across the nodes of each regional referral network.

Abstract
We analyze magnetometry using an optically levitated nanodiamond. We consider a configuration where a magnetic field gradient couples the mechanical oscillation of the diamond with its spin degree of freedom provided by a nitrogen vacancy center. First, we investigate the measurement of the position spectrum of the mechanical oscillator. We find that conditions of ultrahigh vacuum and feedback cooling allow a magnetic field gradient sensitivity of 1μTm-1/Hz. At high pressure and room temperature, this sensitivity degrades and can attain a value of the order of 100mTm-1/Hz. Subsequently, we characterize the magnetic field gradient sensitivity obtainable by maneuvering the spin degrees of freedom using Ramsey interferometry. We find that this technique can offer photon-shot noise and spin-projection noise limited magnetic field gradient sensitivity of 100μTm-1/Hz. We conclude that this hybrid levitated nanomechanical magnetometer provides a favorable and versatile platform for sensing applications.

Abstract
Abstract 52 Background: Despite the high burden of pediatric cancer in low- and middle-income countries, the number of facilities at which children can obtain treatment remains distressingly low. Understanding the costs and economic value of pediatric cancer treatment may assist policy makers to maximize the value of investments in health with informed resource allocation decisions. We examined the direct and indirect costs, cost-effectiveness, and societal economic benefit of diagnosing and treating children with cancer in Tanzania at the Bugando Medical Center, one of only two hospitals in the country with a pediatric oncology unit. Methods: A retrospective chart review of hospital admissions and clinic visits from January 2010 to August 2014 was performed. Costs were recorded for all items that were billed to the patient for laboratory studies, medications, imaging, pathology, surgeries, and hospital stay. Travel costs were estimated for each patient on the basis of a self-reported home address. All costs were converted from Tanzanian shillings to 2016 US dollars. Health outcomes were measured as disability-adjusted life-year (DALY) averted. We calculated the cost-effectiveness ratio of treatment versus performing no intervention as well as the societal economic benefit using a human capital approach and considering the per capita gross national product in Tanzania. Results: We identified costs for a subset of 127 patients, 64% of which were male (n = 81). Mean age at first clinical presentation was 6.9 years. Mean cost for treatment was $218 ± $145, with an average of 10.4 ± 8.9 DALYs averted per patient. Total cost-effectiveness ratio was $21/DALY, and the mean societal economic benefit was $27,118 ± $23,412. Conclusion: Our findings show that pediatric cancer treatment in Tanzania is cost-effective and offers substantial economic value.

Abstract
A retrospective analysis of clinico-hematologic parameters of 18 factor XIII-deficient patients was carried out. The hematologic tests included activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), prothrombin time (PT), and clot solubility. Laboratory diagnosis of FXIII deficiency was made where bleeding time, PT, APTT, and thrombin time were normal and the clot solubility test result with 5M urea was positive. Factor XIII level with family screening was performed using commercially available kits. History of prolonged bleeding from the umbilical stump was present in four (22.2%) patients. The most common site of bleeding was the skin (11 of 18 patients). Three patients were given prophylaxis (FFP in two, factor XIII in one). A high prevalence of recurrent abortion in female pa tients with FXIII deficiency (two of the three patients in this study) was observed.

Abstract
A retrospective analysis of clinicohematologic parameters of 25 patients with lupus anticoagulant was carried out. The hematologic tests included dilute Russel viper venom test (dRVVT), kaolin clotting time (KCT), activated partial thromboplastin time, and prothrombin time. The diagnosis of lupus anticoagulants was based on the presence of prolonged KCT/dRVVT, its absence of correction with normal plasma and correction by phospholipids. Specific factor assays and platelet aggregation studies were performed wherever required. Ten patients (40%) had thrombosis, which was venous in 5 (50%) and arterial in 4 (40%). One patient (10%) had both arterial and venous thrombosis and presented with catastrophic antiphospholipid syndrome. Eighteen female patients conceived. Four (22%) of these had recurrent first trimester abortion. Five (20%) patients had bleeding manifestations. One (4%) of these had hypoprothrombinemia and was diagnosed to have hypoprothrombinemia lupus anticoagulant syndrome. However in two of these patients, no cause of bleeding could be identified other than the presence of lupus anticoagulants. It is concluded that patients with lupus anticoagulant have a varied spectrum of hemostatic disorders. Bleeding may sometimes occur in these patients due to associated thrombocytopenia or associated factor inhibitors. Rarely, it may occur due to presence of lupus anticoagulants alone.

Abstract
This paper provides HIV estimation methodology used in India and key HIV estimates for 2010-2011. We used a modified version of the Spectrum tool that included an Estimation and Projection Package as part of its AIDS Impact Module. Inputs related to population size, age-specific pattern of fertility, gender-ratio at birth, age and gender-specific pattern of mortality, and volume and age-gender distribution of net migration were derived from census records, the Sample Registration System and large-scale demographic health surveys. Epidemiological and programmatic data were derived from HIV sentinel surveillance, large-scale epidemiological surveys and the programme management information system. Estimated adult HIV prevalence retained a declining trend in India, following its peak in 2002 at a level of 0.41% (within bounds 0.35-0.47%). By 2010 and 2011, it levelled at estimates of 0.28% (0.24-0.34%) and 0.27% (0.22-0.33%), respectively. The estimated number of people living with HIV (PLHIV) reduced by 8% between 2007 and 2011. While children accounted for approximately 6.3% of total HIV infections in 2007, this proportion increased to about 7% in 2011. With changing priorities and epidemic patterns, the programme has to customise its strategies to effectively address the emerging vulnerabilities and adapt them to suit the requirements of different geographical regions.

Abstract
Paracrine signalling from chondrocytes has been reported to increase the synthesis and expression of cartilage extracellular matrix (ECM) by stem cells. The use of conditioned medium obtained from chondrocytes for stimulating stem cells chondrogenic differentiation may be a very interesting alternative for moving into the clinical application of these cells, as chondrocytes could be partially replaced by stem cells for this type of application. In the present study we aimed to achieve chondrogenic differentiation of two different sources of stem cells using conditioned medium, without adding growth factors. We tested both human bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (hBSMCs) and human Wharton's jelly-derived stem cells (hWJSCs). Conditioned medium obtained from a culture of human articular chondrocytes was used to feed the cells during the experiment. Cultures were performed in previously produced three-dimensional (3D) scaffolds, composed of a blend of 50:50 chitosan:poly(butylene succinate). Both types of stem cells were able to undergo chondrogenic differentiation without the addition of growth factors. Cultures using hWJSCs showed significantly higher GAGs accumulation and expression of cartilage-related genes (aggrecan, Sox9 and collagen type II) when compared to hBMSCs cultures. Conditioned medium obtained from articular chondrocytes induced the chondrogenic differentiation of MSCs and ECM formation. Obtained results showed that this new strategy is very interesting and should be further explored for clinical applications.

Abstract
e17562 Background: Cancer incidence is increasing in India, where most patients lack health insurance. Little is known about how out-of-pocket costs affect cancer treatment decision-making by Indian physicians and patients. Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional survey of PPOs and NPPOs in 6 Indian metropolitan areas. Oncologists were surveyed about cost of care and cost discussions with patients. Descriptive statistics and Fisher’s exact tests were used to describe differences in cost perceptions and discussions. Results: 59 oncologists were surveyed (61% response). 78% (n=46) were men. 59% (n=34) were PPOs, and 41% (n=25) were NPPOs. Oncologists routinely discussed cost with their patients (96%, n=57); PPOs and NPPOs were equally likely to do so (p=1.00). According to oncologists, patients seeing NPPOs or PPOs were equally likely to discuss costs before deciding on treatment (p=0.14). 55% (n=32/58) of oncologists discussed cost with patients before prescribing diagnostic tests, and 79% (n=46/58) discussed cost before making treatment decisions. PPOs were more likely than NPPOs to believe that costs may discourage patients from presenting for an initial cancer evaluation (88% vs. 44%; p=0.0009). However, 71% of NPPOs (vs 44% of PPOs; p=0.06) believed that, once diagnosed, more than half of their patients found costs to be a barrier to receiving standard care. Oncologists reported the most costly components of care for their patients to be: 1) chemotherapy; 2) radiotherapy and diagnostic imaging (tied); 4) surgery; 5) indirect costs from lost wages and inpatient admission (tied). When asked about how to reduce costs, oncologists identified: lowering chemotherapy prices (88%, n=52); judicious use/ lowering cost of diagnostics (36%, n=21); optimizing the referral process (22%, n=13). Insurance/subsidies were identified by 15% (n=8). Conclusions: Cost is routinely discussed by Indian patients and oncologists across care settings. Cost can be a deterrent to initial evaluation and a barrier to receiving standard care. Oncologists more commonly suggested reducing costs of diagnostics and therapeutics, rather than expanding insurance or changing referral practices.

Abstract
Proximal spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) or type 1 SMA is a fatal autosomal recessive disorder usually caused by homozygous deletion of exons 7 and 8 in the survivor motor neuron (SMN) gene. Additional deletion of the neuronal apotosis inhibitory protein (NAIP) gene exacerbates the clinical severity. Isolated exon 8 deletion has been reported in a single case series of SMA types 2 and 3 and never with SMA type 1. While extraocular muscles are typically spared, there are a few case reports documenting associated external ophthalmoplegia. Optic atrophy is a hitherto unreported association of SMA. We report a 10-month-old male infant with SMA type 1 with optic atrophy due to isolated deletion of exon 8 of the SMN gene with intact exon 7 and NAIP gene.

Abstract
We recently reported that integrin α(v)β(3) is necessary for vascular barrier protection in mouse models of acute lung injury and peritonitis. Here, we used mass spectrometric sequencing of integrin complexes to isolate the novel β(3)-integrin binding partner IQGAP1. Like integrin β(3), IQGAP1 localized to the endothelial cell-cell junction after sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) treatment, and IQGAP1 knockdown prevented cortical actin formation and barrier enhancement in response to S1P. Furthermore, knockdown of IQGAP1 prevented localization of integrin α(v)β(3) to the cell-cell junction. Similar to β(3)-null animals, IQGAP1-null mice had increased pulmonary vascular leak compared with wild-type controls 3 days after intratracheal LPS. In an Escherichia coli pneumonia model, IQGAP1 knockout mice had increased lung weights, lung water, and lung extravascular plasma equivalents of (125)I-labeled albumin compared with wild-type controls. Taken together, these experiments indicate that IQGAP1 is necessary for S1P-mediated vascular barrier protection during acute lung injury and is required for junctional localization of the barrier-protective integrin α(v)β(3).

Abstract
BACKGROUND With the introduction of antiretroviral therapy (ART), the mortality and morbidity of HIV/AIDS have decreased markedly. However, high adherence to ART (>95%) is necessary for a good therapeutic outcome. There is a paucity of data on paediatric adherence to ART and its correlates from developing countries, particularly India. AIM To determine the rate of adherence to ART in HIV-infected Indian children and the factors associated with adherence. METHODS A cross-sectional study was conducted at an ART clinic in New Delhi, north India. Caregivers of 90 children were interviewed using a pre-designed, structured questionnaire and checklist. The primary measure of adherence was 4-day caregiver's recall. Adherence rates were correlated with 3-monthly CD4 counts. RESULTS Mean (SD, range) adherence was 91·4% (12·3, 75-100%). Adherence was low (<95%) in 31 (34·4%) patients. On multivariate logistic regression analysis, increasing time since ART initiation (OR 1·08, 95% CI 1·02-1·13), low caregiver educational status (OR 4·19, 95% CI 1·37-10·88), orphanhood (OR 3·57, 95% CI 1·13-9·25), efavirenz-based ART regimens (OR 3·65, 95% CI 1·05-10·69) and female gender (OR 3·15, 95% CI 1·03-7·68) were associated with lower adherence. The rise in CD4 count after ART initiation was more marked in the high adherence group, with the difference in the two groups becoming statistically significant after 6 months of ART (median CD4 count 698 vs 355, p=0·016). CONCLUSIONS It is possible to achieve high adherence to ART in a resource-limited setting. Caregiver recall is a reliable and inexpensive tool for measuring adherence. Paediatric adherence to ART is influenced by numerous factors and larger studies are needed to address the issue in India.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To update the estimation of the adult HIV prevalence and number of people living with HIV (PLHIV) in India for the year 2008-2009 with the combination of improved data and methods. DESIGN Based on HIV sentinel surveillance (HSS) data and a set of epidemiological assumptions, estimates of HIV prevalence and burden in India have been derived. SETTING HSS sites spread over all the States of India. PARTICIPANTS Secondary data from HSS sites which include attendees of antenatal clinics and sites under targeted interventions of high-risk groups, namely, female sex workers (FSW), intravenous drug users (IDU) and men having sex with men (MSM). PRIMARY AND SECONDARY OUTCOME MEASURES Estimates of adult HIV prevalence and PLHIV in India and its states. RESULTS The adult HIV prevalence in India has declined to an estimated 0.31% (0.25-0.39%) in 2009 against 0.36% (0.29-0.45%) in 2006. Among the high prevalence states, the HIV prevalence has declined in Tamil Nadu to 0.33% in 2009 and other states show either a plateau or a slightly declining trend over the time period 2006-2009. There are states in the low prevalence states where the adult HIV prevalence has risen over the last 4 years. The estimated number of PLHIV in India is 2.4 million (1.93-3.04 million) in 2009. Of which, 39% are women, children under 15 years of age account for 4.4% of all infections, while people aged 15-49 years account for 82.4% of all infections. CONCLUSIONS The estimated adult prevalence has declined in few states, a plateau or a slightly declining trend over the time. In future, efforts may be made to examine the implications of the emerging trend of the HIV prevalence on the recent infections in the study population.

Abstract
Neurological manifestations of enteric fever are well known. However, isolated cranial nerve palsies are rare. A 4-year-old boy and two girls aged 5 and 11 years with culture-proven typhoid fever are described, two of whom developed palatal palsy and the other sixth cranial nerve palsy. Following treatment, there was complete resolution of the cranial nerve palsies within 5-7 weeks. While palatal palsy is reported rarely, isolated sixth cranial nerve palsy associated with typhoid has not been reported previously.
