Abstract
BACKGROUND Survival is a key metric of the effectiveness of a health system in managing cancer. We set out to provide a comprehensive examination of worldwide variation and trends in survival from brain tumors in adults, by histology. METHODS We analyzed individual data for adults (15-99 years) diagnosed with a brain tumor (ICD-O-3 topography code C71) during 2000-2014, regardless of tumor behavior. Data underwent a 3-phase quality control as part of CONCORD-3. We estimated net survival for 11 histology groups, using the unbiased nonparametric Pohar Perme estimator. RESULTS The study included 556,237 adults. In 2010-2014, the global range in age-standardized 5-year net survival for the most common sub-types was broad: in the range 20%-38% for diffuse and anaplastic astrocytoma, from 4% to 17% for glioblastoma, and between 32% and 69% for oligodendroglioma. For patients with glioblastoma, the largest gains in survival occurred between 2000-2004 and 2005-2009. These improvements were more noticeable among adults diagnosed aged 40-70 years than among younger adults. CONCLUSIONS To the best of our knowledge, this study provides the largest account to date of global trends in population-based survival for brain tumors by histology in adults. We have highlighted remarkable gains in 5-year survival from glioblastoma since 2005, providing large-scale empirical evidence on the uptake of chemoradiation at population level. Worldwide, survival improvements have been extensive, but some countries still lag behind. Our findings may help clinicians involved in national and international tumor pathway boards to promote initiatives aimed at more extensive implementation of clinical guidelines.

Abstract
Background Critical inter-provincial differences within Iran in the pattern of non-communicable diseases (NCDs) and difficulties inherent to identifying prevention methods to reduce mortality from NCDs have challenged the implementation of the provincial health system plan. The Shahrekord Cohort Study (SCS) was designed to address these gaps in Chaharmahal and Bakhtiari, a province of high altitude in the southwest of Iran, characterized by its large Bakhtiari population, along with Fars and Turk ethnicity groups. Methods This ongoing cohort, a prospective, large-scale longitudinal study, includes a unique, rich biobank and was conducted for the first time in Chaharmahal and Bakhtiari Province in Iran. SCS is a part of the PERSIAN (Prospective Epidemiological Research Studies in IrAN) cohort. The study began in 2015, recruited 10075 participants (52.8% female, 47.2% male) from both urban (n=7034) and rural (n=3041) areas, and participants will be annually followed up for at least 15 years. A cross-sectional analysis was conducted using baseline data from the SCS, using descriptive statistics and logistic regression. Data analysis was performed using Stata software. Results The prevalence of NCDs was 9.8% for type 2 diabetes, 17.1% for hypertension, 11.6% for thyroid disease, 0.2% for multiple sclerosis and 5.7, 0.9 and 1.3% for ischemic heart disease, stroke and myocardial infarction, respectively. The prevalence of multimorbidity (≥2 NCDs) was higher in women (39.1%) than men (24.9%). The means (standard deviations) of age, BMI, systolic blood pressure and fasting blood glucose were 49.5 (9) years, 27.6 (4.6) kg/m2, 115.4 (17.3) mmHg and 96.7 (27.3) mg/dL, respectively. Logistic regression models showed that older age, female gender, living in an urban area, non-native ethnicity, high wealth index, unemployment, obesity, low physical activity, hypertriglyceridemia, high fasting blood sugar, alkaline urine pH and high systolic and diastolic blood pressure were associated with increased prevalence of NCDs. Conclusions The SCS provides a platform for epidemiological studies that will be useful to better control NCDs in the southwest of Iran and to foster research collaboration. The SCS will be an essential resource for identifying NCD risk factors in this region and designing relevant public health interventions.

Abstract
Poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) elastomer is now a well-known material for packaging implantable biomedical micro-devices owing to unique bulk properties such as biocompatibility, low toxicity, excellent rheological properties, good flexibility, and mechanical stability. Despite the desirable bulk characteristics, PDMS is generally regarded as a high-flux material for oxygen and water vapor to penetrate compared with other polymeric barrier materials, which is related to the defect-induced penetration through the packaging coating prepared by the traditional deposition techniques. Besides, its hydrophobic nature causes serious fouling problems and limits the practical application of PDMS-based devices. In this work, the performance of silicone thin films as a packaging layer was improved by the fabrication of the roller-casted multiple thin layers to minimize a defect-induced failure. To confer hydrophilicity and cell fouling resistance, high-density and well-defined poly(oligo(ethylene glycol) methacrylate) (POEGMA) brushes were tethered via the surface-initiated atom transfer radical polymerization (SI-ATRP) technique on the roller-casted multiple thin PDMS layers. The characteristics of fabricated substrates were determined by static water contact angle measurement, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and attenuated total reflection-Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. In vitro cell behavior of POEGMA-grafted PDMS substrates was evaluated to examine cell-fouling resistance.

Abstract
Many biomodifiers have recently been introduced to the asphalt industry to improve the performance of asphalt mixtures, rejuvenate aged asphalt, and/or partially replace asphalt binder. It is critical to screen these biomodifiers for their susceptibility to moisture damage before they are used in construction. This study develops a computational approach and a laboratory technique to predict the moisture susceptibility of modifiers used in asphalt binder mixtures. The computational approach uses the "polarizability" factor, which is one of the conceptual descriptors in density functional theory. Polarizability is indicative of the formation of instantaneous dipoles that are oriented in the applied field. A lower polarizability indicates a lower propensity of the chemical species to interact with other species in their chemical environment. The laboratory method defines a moisture-induced shear-thinning index. Moisture-induced shear-thinning measures the loss of interfacial bonds between the asphalt binder and siliceous surfaces due to water exposure. Both proposed indicators are used to evaluate and compare biomodifiers from four sources: waste vegetable oil, swine manure, algae, and a co-liquefied blend of swine manure and algae. In a comparative study, waste vegetable oil with a high content of long-chain alkanes and fatty acids showed the highest polarizability and the highest moisture-induced shear-thinning index, indicating the highest susceptibility to moisture damage. In contrast, the chemical composition of the biomodifier produced from the co-liquefaction of swine manure and algae showed the lowest polarizability and the lowest moisture-induced shear-thinning index, indicating the highest resistance to moisture damage.

Abstract
In recent years, the dominant organizing role of non-covalent π-stacking interactions in the association of asphaltenes and porphyrins was criticized and replaced with cooperative forces that are mostly covalent in nature. Here, we show the significant contribution of non-covalent forces in stabilizing the π-stacking of asphaltenes and porphyrins. To understand the binding chemistry of metalloporphyrin-asphaltene, the interaction of nickel octaethylporphyrin with a series of model fragments for asphaltene was studied in two different pathways: axial coordination and π-stacking. Nickel octaethylporphyrin was specifically studied because a main fraction of vanadium and nickel metals in petroleum residues are chelated with porphyrins, and the refining processes in petroleum industries are affected by the significant detrimental impact of these metal compounds. The results of the extended transition state-natural orbital of chemical valence (ETS-NOCV) technique provide strong evidence that the bonding interaction in the π-stacking configuration is much preferred to the axial coordination. Energy decomposition analysis verifies the significant contribution of non-covalent forces in stabilizing the π-stacking of asphaltene-porphyrin, showing that there are other forces driving the formation of asphaltene-porphyrin stacks. Indeed, a non-negligible portion of these stabilizing forces is contributed by strong orbital mixing interactions through charge transfer between active centers; this contribution is mostly overlooked in π-stacking interactions. This matter includes the π-stacking interactions of asphaltene-asphaltene. Isosurfaces of deformation density (Δρ) provide better insights into the π-stacking preference. NOCV deformation densities are delocalized over the entire complex in the π-stacking conformer, leading to the multi-centric charge transfer zone; Δρ isosurfaces of axial coordination are mostly localized on the limited centers involved in chemical bonding.

Abstract
Up until now, only a limited number of evidence-based studies with different results has evaluated traumatic nerve injury after maxillofacial surgery using piezoelectric devices versus rotary instruments. The present experiment was performed to evaluate damage to the inferior alveolar nerve (IAN), histologically, after osteotomy of the buccal cortex of the mandible using piezoelectric devices versus surgical handpieces. Forty rabbits underwent bilateral osteotomy of the mandibular buccal cortex. For the osteotomy of one side, piezoelectric devices were used, and for the other, conventional rotary handpieces. After cleavage of the osteotomised cortical bone segments, the exposed part of the IAN was excised and examined histologically for nerve injury. IAN damage was scored histologically from Grade 0 (no nerve damage) to Grade 4 (complete nerve transection). It was found that 25% and 17.5% of nerves had Grade 0; 17.5% and 10% had Grade 1; 25% and 20% had Grade 2; 17.5% and 27.5% had Grade 3; and 15% and 25% had Grade 4 injury in piezosurgery and rotary groups, respectively. Statistical analyses revealed no significant difference between groups in damage to the IAN. The present study showed that piezosurgery devices, similar to conventional rotary instruments, have the potential to cause severe nerve damage during surgery and should therefore be used with care.

Abstract
Parent management training is a general set of interventions used as a part of a variety of clinical approaches to reduce behavioral problems of children. These behavioral problems in children with special needs (such as autism spectrum disorder) take a more complex form. The objective is to present elements, needed to develop parent management training program to reduce behavioral problems in preschool children with autism spectrum disorder. At first, all parent management training programs for reducing behavioral problems of preschool children were collected. Subsequently, all programs were reviewed from the perspective of having a systematic review or meta-analysis, confirming the effectiveness of this program at preschool age. After that, interviews with experts and parents were conducted to identify effective elements on development of this program. In the next step, a set of components was obtained using information about parent management training programs as well as items obtained from interviews with experts and parents. At this stage, 10 experts were asked to rate the items according to their importance using the Delphi method. The items that achieved the required scores were introduced as main items. The number of them was 13 and included items such as full assessment of the child and appropriate communication with the child. Considering the characteristics of children with autism spectrum disorder will require changes in some parts of parent management training program, therefore, it is necessary to develop a specific program for these children to cover all of their characteristics.

Abstract
This paper investigates merits of using a wood-based biocrude (WB) from aspen wood to improve the compatibility of halloysite nanotubes (HNTs) with high-impact polystyrene to develop nanocomposites with desirable thermomechanical properties. Morphological, thermal, and rheological properties of the resulting nanocomposite are used as indicators of the compatibility and dispersion of the modified HNT within the polymer matrix. Computational modeling using density functional theory is used along with laboratory experiments to provide a multiscale characterization of the above biocrude and nanocomposites. Studies performed through dispersion-corrected density functional theory calculations show that the active functional groups of WB molecules including carbonyl, hydroxyl, and carboxylic interact with the HNT surface, while their aromatic tails interact with the phenyl groups of the polystyrene. Furthermore, the studies reveal how WB molecules act as bridges between the hydrophobic polymer and the hydrophilic clay improving the compatibility. The latter was confirmed by Hansen solubility parameters and was evidenced in improved dispersion of clay within the polystyrene matrix observed by microscopy. Rheological and thermal analyses of the modified HNT and nanocomposites showed physical interactions of WB with HNT surface as well as interactions between the WB-modified HNT and the high-impact polystyrene. The WB was found to be a strong candidate as a green compatibilizing agent for HNT in high-impact polystyrene. The study results can provide insights for formulators and manufacturers looking for green compatibilizing agents in conventional nanocomposites for construction and manufacturing applications.

Abstract
Electroencephalography (EEG)-based brain–computer interface (BCI) systems infer brain signals recorded via EEG without using common neuromuscular pathways. User brain response to BCI error is a contributor to non-stationarity of the EEG signal and poses challenges in developing reliable active BCI control. Many passive BCI implementations, on the other hand, have the detection of error-related brain activity as their primary goal. Therefore, reliable detection of this signal is crucial in both active and passive BCIs. In this work, we propose CREST: a novel covariance-based method that uses Riemannian and Euclidean geometry and combines spatial and temporal aspects of the feedback-related brain activity in response to BCI error. We evaluate our proposed method with two datasets: an active BCI for 1-D cursor control using motor imagery and a passive BCI for 2-D cursor control. We show significant improvement across participants in both datasets compared to existing methods.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: To examine time intervals between needle/core biopsy, breast cancer diagnosis, surgery and radiotherapy (RT) as quality metrics in the management of stage I-III breast cancer in a representative Swiss population sample.
Methods: Based on seven regional cancer registries covering 45% of the Swiss population, we identified 2628 women which underwent surgery for stage I-III breast cancer without receiving (neo)-adjuvant chemotherapy between January 1, 2003 and December 31, 2005.
Four different time intervals were defined: a) time between needle/core biopsy and diagnosis of breast cancer, b) time between diagnosis of breast cancer and surgery, c) time between needle/core biopsy and surgery, d) time between surgery and adjuvant RT.
These four time intervals were analyzed according to age, nationality, health insurance status, public vs. private hospitals and geography. We also investigated whether case discussion at tumor board delayed patient management.
A one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) and multiple comparison tests were used to assess differences between groups. All tests were performed using STATA v.15.
Results: 2628 women were identified, median age was 67 years (IQR: 58-77). Breast-conserving surgery was performed in 1899 cases (72.3%), mastectomy in 539 cases (20.5%), unspecified surgery /missing data in 190 cases (7.2%). Adjuvant RT was delivered in 1546/2628 patients (58.8 %).
Time interval between biopsy and surgery was age-dependent, ranging from 22 days (95% CI: 19.6 - 25.2) for women < 60 years to 39 days (95% CI: 27.0-50.3) for women 80+ years old (p<0.001). After biopsy, women waited on average 19 days until surgery in private clinics (95% CI: 16.4-21.6) and 30 days in public hospitals (95% CI: 26.6-33.3) (p<0.001). Women with private insurance were operated 24 days after biopsy (95% CI: 17.0-31.1), compared with 30 days (95% CI: 27.1-33.2) (p<0.01)for women with basic state insurance. After biopsy, time interval for foreign nationals was significantly longer than for Swiss citizen (30 vs 24 days, p<0.01). Tumor board presentation postponed surgery by 10 days (31 vs 22 days, p<0.01).
Time between surgery and RT did not correlate with age (p=0.83); the interval was 33% longer in tertiary teaching hospitals than in private clinics (61 vs. 46 days, p<0.001), and 8 days longer for patients with private insurance than for those without (61 vs 53 days, p<0.01). There was a trend for foreign nationals to receive adjuvant RT later than Swiss citizen (58 vs 55 days, p=0.09). RT started later in larger metropolitan areas compared to more rural regions (59 vs 53 days, p<0.01). Presenting patients at a tumor board after surgery had no impact on RT start (p=0.12).
Conclusions: Major differences in treatment waiting times were observed between patients with stage I-III breast cancer. Elderly and foreign patients were at risk for delayed surgery after biopsy. Data from patients with longer timelines need to be analyzed to identify further reasons for delays.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The γ‑nailing system is a widespread intramedullary therapeutic option that has been used for intertrochanteric and subtrochanteric fractures since the late 1980s; however, some reports from the 1990s describing femoral shaft fractures questioned the indications for this system in simple fracture types. Due to increasing numbers of patients treated with this system, the complication rate is continuously falling as confirmed by many recent studies. OBJECTIVE Between 2008 and 2013 a total of 1500 operations using the γ‑nailing system were performed at this traumatology department. The standard 200 mm nail was used in 1290 cases and the extended system available from 340 to 440 mm in 210 cases. The aim of this study was to record the excellent results using the standard γ‑nailing system and to confirm the indications of the long intramedullary nailing system (Gamma3®) also for use in complex intertrochanteric and subtrochanteric fractures. MATERIAL AND METHODS All 1500 patients were retrospectively analyzed. Information on epidemiological data, intraoperative and postoperative complications and patient outcome was retrieved from the digital patient medical history. All available radiographs were assessed by a single traumatologist. RESULTS The results showed a low complication rate of 5% for surgical complications, mainly caused by cutting out in 34.66%, followed by hematomas in 21.33% and fractures of the nail in 16%. A comparison of the standard and long nailing systems could be carried out, showing a complication rate of 3.64% for the standard system compared to 13.33% for the long γ‑nail system. CONCLUSION The γ‑nailing system is a safe treatment option for trochanteric femoral fractures and failure of the implant is associated with high biomechanical forces in unstable fractures. A low complication rate is linked to a thorough surgical technique under consideration of a correct positioning of the implant.

Abstract
Background One of the main problems of dedicated IORT accelerators is to determine dosimetric characteristics of the electron beams. Monte Carlo simulation of IORT accelerator head and produced beam will be useful to improve the accuracy of beam dosimetry. Materials and Methods Liac accelerator head was modeled using the BEAMnrcMonte Carlo simulation system. Phase-space files were generated at the bottom of the applicators. These phase-space files were used as an input source in DOSXYZnrc and BEAMDP codes for dose calculation and analysis of the characteristic of the electron beams in all applicators and energies. Results The results of Monte Carlo calculations are in very close agreement with the measurements. There is a decrease in the peak of the initial spectrum when electrons come from the end of accelerator wave guide to the end of applicator. By decreasing the applicator diameter, the mean energy of electron beam decreased. Using applicators and increasing their size, X-ray contamination will increase. The percentage of X-ray contamination increases by applicator diameter. This is related to the increase of the mean energy of electron beams. Conclusion Application of PMMA collimator leads to, although well below accepted level, the production of bremsstrahlung. The results of this study showed that special design of LIAC head accompanying by PMMA collimator system cause to produce an electron beam with an individual dosimetric characteristic making it a useful tool for intraoperative radiotherapy purposes.

Abstract
This study was designed to investigate the effects of feeding-protected conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) on the semen production and sperm freezability in Holstein bulls. Twelve bulls were randomly assigned to two groups (n = 6 per group). Bulls received the normal diet (control group) or the normal diet top-dressed with 50 g of CLA (treated group) for 10 weeks. The control group received 40 g/day calcium soap of fatty acid. Fresh and post-thaw semen quality was assessed on ejaculates collected at the 0, 4, 6, 8 and 10 week of supplementation. Semen evaluations including sperm concentration, motion characteristics (subjective and computer-assisted), viability (Eosin-Nigrosin), membrane integrity (hypo-osmotic swelling test) and abnormality were conducted. Semen volume, sperm concentration and total sperm output were not affected by dietary treatment (p > .05). The proportion of spermatozoa with abnormal morphology in fresh semen significantly increased (p < .05) in the CLA-fed group compared to control group. Also, in CLA-fed group, the proportion of post-thaw spermatozoa with abnormal morphology at week 10 of trial was significantly higher in CLA than control group (p < .05). Progressive motility tended to be increased in the CLA-fed group, although dietary supplementation did not affect other CASA parameters or viability in fresh and frozen-thawed sperm. In this study, CLA supplementation had little positive effect on fresh or post-thaw sperm quality of Holstein bulls.

Abstract
Number of days spent in acute hospitals (DAH) at the end of life is regarded as an important care quality indicator for cancer patients. We analysed DAH during 90 days prior to death in patients from four Swiss cantons. Claims data from an insurance provider with about 20% market share and patient record review identified 2086 patients as dying of cancer. We calculated total DAH per patient. Multivariable generalised linear modelling served to evaluate potential explanatory variables. Mean DAH was 26 days. In the multivariable model, using complementary and alternative medicine (DAH = 33.9; +8.8 days compared to non-users) and canton of residence (for patient receiving anti-cancer therapy, Zürich DAH = 22.8 versus Basel DAH = 31.4; for other patients, Valais DAH = 22.7 versus Ticino DAH = 33.7) had the strongest influence. Age at death and days spent in other institutions were additional significant predictors. DAH during the last 90 days of life of cancer patients from four Swiss cantons is high compared to most other countries. Several factors influence DAH. Resulting differences are likely to have financial impact, as DAH is a major cost driver for end-of-life care. Whether they are supply- or demand-driven and whether patients would prefer fewer days in hospital remains to be established.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The EUROCARE study collects and analyses survival data from population-based cancer registries (CRs) in Europe in order to provide data on between-country differences in survival and time trends in survival. METHODS This study analyses data on liver cancer, gallbladder and extrahepatic biliary tract cancers ("biliary tract cancers"), and pancreatic cancer diagnosed in 2000-2007 from 88 CRs in 29 countries. Relative survival (RS) was estimated overall, by region, sex, age and period of diagnosis using the complete approach. Time trends in 5-year RS over 1999-2007 were also analysed using the period approach. RESULTS The prognosis of the studied cancers was poor. Age-standardised 5-year RS was 12% for liver cancer, 17% for biliary tract cancers and 7% for pancreatic cancer. There were some between-country differences in survival. In general, RS was low in Eastern Europe and high in Central and Southern Europe. For all sites, 5-year RS was similar in men and women and decreased with advancing age. No substantial changes in survival were reported for pancreatic cancer over the period 1999-2007. On average, there was a crude increase in 5-year RS of 3 percentage points between the periods 1999-2001 and 2005-2007 for liver cancer and biliary tract cancers. CONCLUSIONS The major changes in imaging techniques over the study period for the diagnosis of the three studied cancers did not result in an improvement in the prognosis of these cancers. In the near future, new innovative treatments might be the best way to improve the prognosis in these cancers.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Glioblastoma Multiforme (GBM) or grade IV astrocytoma is the most common and lethal adult malignant brain tumor. Several of the molecular alterations detected in gliomas may have diagnostic and/or prognostic implications. Proteomics has been widely applied in various areas of science, ranging from the deciphering of molecular pathogen nests of discuses. METHODS In this study proteins were extracted from the tumor and normal brain tissues and then the protein purity was evaluated by Bradford test and spectrophotometry. In this study, proteins were separated by 2-Dimensional Gel (2DG) electrophoresis method and the spots were then analyzed and compared using statistical data and specific software. Protein clustering analysis was performed on the list of proteins deemed significantly altered in glioblastoma tumors (t-test and one-way ANOVA; P< 0.05). RESULTS The 2D gel showed totally 876 spots. We reported, 172 spots were exhibited differently in expression level (fold > 2) for glioblastoma. On each analytical 2D gel, an average of 876 spots was observed. In this study, 188 spots exhibited up regulation of expression level, whereas the remaining 232 spots were decreased in glioblastoma tumor relative to normal tissue. Results demonstrate that functional clustering (up and down regulated) and Principal Component Analysis (PCA) has considerable merits in aiding the interpretation of proteomic data. CONCLUSION 2D gel electrophoresis is the core of proteomics which permitted the separation of thousands of proteins. High resolution 2DE can resolve up to 5,000 proteins simultaneously. Using cluster analysis, we can also form groups of related variables, similar to what is practiced in factor analysis.
