Abstract
The incidence of post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is greater in women than men, but mechanisms via which this difference manifests remain under explored. The single prolonged stress (SPS) rodent model of traumatic stress has been used to identify mechanisms through which traumatic stress leads to deficits in retaining extinction (a core PTSD symptom), but has been mostly utilized in male model systems. Recent studies have observed that SPS leads to changes in persistent fear memory in female rats, though these results are variable. This variability could be driven by changes in behavioral strategy in females during extinction, but this possibility has not been sufficiently explored. To address this, we examined the impact of SPS on freezing and avoidance (a core PTSD symptom) during extinction in male and female rats. In male rats, SPS enhanced acquisition of conditioned freezing, but did not enhance freezing during extinction training or testing. SPS also decreased avoidance during extinction training, but not extinction testing. In female rats, SPS had no impact on conditioned freezing. Avoidance was not observed in control rats, but emerged in SPS/female rats during extinction testing. Furthermore, avoidance was negatively correlated with freezing in female rats (high avoidance associated with lower freezing), but this relationship was disrupted with SPS. The results suggest that introducing avoidance during extinction negates SPS effects on extinction retention in male and female rats, control/female rats engage in avoidance to regulate fear expression, and this relationship is disrupted with SPS.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Metachromatic leukodystrophy (MLD), a relentlessly progressive and ultimately fatal condition, is a rare autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disorder caused by a deficiency of the enzyme arylsulfatase A (ARSA). Historically management has been palliative or supportive care. Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation is poorly effective in early-onset MLD and benefit in late-onset MLD remains controversial. Hematopoietic stem cell gene therapy, Libmeldy (atidarsagene autotemcel), was recently approved by the European Medicines Agency for early-onset MLD. Treatment benefit is mainly observed at an early disease stage, indicating the need for early diagnosis and intervention. This study contributes insights into the caregiver language used to describe initial MLD symptomatology, and thereby aims to improve communication between clinicians and families impacted by this condition and promote a faster path to diagnosis. RESULTS Data was collected through a moderator-assisted online 60-min survey and 30-min semi-structured follow-up telephone interview with 31 MLD caregivers in the United States (n = 10), France (n = 10), the United Kingdom (n = 5), and Germany (n = 6). All respondents were primary caregivers of a person with late infantile (n = 20), juvenile (n = 11) or borderline late infantile/juvenile (n = 1) MLD (one caregiver reported for 2 children leading to a sample of 32 individuals with MLD). Caregivers were asked questions related to their child's initial signs and symptoms, time to diagnosis and interactions with healthcare providers. These results highlight the caregiver language used to describe the most common initial symptoms of MLD and provide added context to help elevate the index of suspicion of disease. Distinctions between caregiver descriptions of late infantile and juvenile MLD in symptom onset and disease course were also identified. CONCLUSIONS This study captures the caregiver description of the physical, behavioral, and cognitive signs of MLD prior to diagnosis. The understanding of the caregiver language at symptom onset sheds light on a critical window of often missed opportunity for earlier diagnosis and therapeutic intervention in MLD.

Abstract
Abstract
Background/Introduction
Bioprosthetic valve degeneration is a growing clinical challenge in our aging society. Especially type 2 diabetes mellitus represents a risk factor for bioprosthetic valve deterioration with likewise worldwide rising prevalence. The proteoglycan biglycan has been shown to be associated with degenerative changes of the valve in diabetic patients even though underlying mechanisms are yet unknown.
Purpose
The impact of hyperglycaemia on bioprosthetic valve tissue was analysed in an established mouse model of ectopic calcification. Thereby, the role of biglycan in bioprosthetic valve degeneration was assessed in biglycan-deficient mice (Bgn-/0) in comparison to wild type littermates (WT).
Methods
Hyperglycaemia was induced in six weeks old mice by intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin (STZ; 55 mg/kg body weight) on five consecutive days. Blood glucose concentration was verified two weeks after treatment and bioprosthetic valve material was implanted subcutaneously. After eight weeks, phenotype of invading cells and extracellular matrix remodelling of implants were analysed with histochemical and immunohistological staining. Furthermore, gene expression of invading cells, circulating cytokines in blood plasma and calcium accumulation in the tissue were quantified.
Results
STZ treatment significantly increased blood glucose levels in both genotype groups (WT-STZ: 156 mg/dl; WT+STZ: 353 mg/dl; Bgn-/0-STZ: 142 mg/dl; Bgn-/0+STZ: 396 mg/dl). Immunohistological staining identified most of cells invading the bioprosthetic tissue and the surrounded capsule as Mac2-positive and partly positive for vimentin, whereas alpha smooth muscle actin and von Willebrand factor were only detectable sporadically. Movat pentachrome staining exhibited an altered extracellular matrix composition of collagen and proteoglycans due to hyperglycaemia, while the elastin amount remained stable. Gene expression analysis showed an increased expression of the proteoglycan decorin in hyperglycaemic mice (WT-STZ: 0.55; WT+STZ: 1.13; Bgn-/0-STZ: 0.51; Bgn-/0+STZ: 1.70). Circulating cytokines (IL-1β, IL-2, IL-5, IL-10, INF-γ, TNF-α, GM-CSF) were influenced neither by hyperglycaemia nor by the genotype of the mice. Alizarin and von Kossa staining exhibited small to moderate calcium deposits in the bioprosthetic valve tissue. A colorimetric assay showed a significantly increased calcium accumulation in WT with hyperglycaemia versus normoglycemic WT (WT-STZ: 8.96 μg/mg; WT+STZ: 18.54 μg/mg), an observation that was lost in Bgn-/0 (Bgn-/0-STZ: 9.84 μg/mg; Bgn-/0+STZ: 12.97 μg/mg).
Conclusion
Hyperglycaemia significantly promotes destructive remodelling in bioprosthetic valve material. Biglycan-deficiency limits degenerative processes associated with diabetes, suggesting that biglycan as a component of the extracellular matrix has an adverse effect in diabetes-associated bioprosthetic valve deterioration.

Abstract
Trees significantly impact land-atmosphere feedbacks through evapotranspiration, photosynthesis and isoprene emissions. These processes influence the local microclimate, air quality and can mitigate temperature extremes and sequester carbon dioxide. Despite such importance, currently only 5 out of 15 atmospheric chemistry climate models even partially account for the presence of cropland trees. We first show that the tree cover over intensely farmed regions in Asia, Australia and South America is significantly underestimated (e.g. only 1-3% tree cover over north-India) in the Model of Emissions of Gases and Aerosol from Nature (MEGAN) and absent in Noah land-surface module of the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF-Chem) Model. By including the actual tree cover (~10%) over the north-west Indo Gangetic Plain in the Noah land-surface module of the WRF-Chem and the MEGAN module, during the rice growing monsoon season in August, we find that the latent heat flux alone increases by 100%-300% while sensible heat flux reduces by 50%-100%, leading to a reduction in daytime boundary layer height by 200-400 m. This greatly improves agreement between the modelled and measured temperature, boundary layer height and surface ozone, which were earlier overestimated and isoprene and its oxidation products which were earlier underestimated. Mitigating peak daytime temperatures and ozone improves rice production by 10 to 20%. Our findings from north west Indo-Gangetic Plain establish that such plantations mitigate heat stress, and have beneficial effects on crop yields while also sequestering carbon. Expanding agroforestry practices to 50% of the cropland area could result in up to 40% yield gain regionally. Implementing such strategies globally could increase crop production and sequester 0.3-30 GtC per year, and therefore future climate mitigation and food security efforts should consider stakeholder participation for increased cropland agroforestry in view of its beneficial effects.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Individuals with dissociative identity disorder (DID) have complex symptoms consistent with severe traumatic reactions. Clinicians and forensic assessors are challenged by distinguishing symptom exaggeration and feigning from genuine symptoms among these individuals. This task may be aided by administering validity measures. OBJECTIVE This study aimed to document how individuals with DID score on the Structured Inventory of Malingered Symptomatology (SIMS). The second objective was to compare coached DID simulators and healthy controls to DID patients on the SIMS's total score and subscales. The third objective was to examine the utility rates of the SIMS in distinguishing simulated DID from clinically diagnosed DID. METHOD We compared SIMS data gathered from participants from two Dutch sites, one Swiss site and one U.S. site. Sixty-three DID patients were compared to 77 coached DID simulators and 64 healthy controls on the SIMS. A multivariate analysis compared the groups on the SIMS total scores and subscales, and post-hoc Games Howell tests and univariate ANOVAs examined differences between the groups. Utility statistics assessed the accuracy of the SIMS in distinguishing clinical from simulated DID. RESULTS DID simulators scored significantly higher than DID individuals and healthy controls on every SIMS subscale as well as the total score. The majority (85.7%) of the individuals with DID scored above the cut-off, which is typically interpreted as indicative of possible symptom exaggeration. DID individuals scored higher than the healthy controls on every subscale except Low Intelligence, even after controlling for dissociation. The subscales and items most frequently endorsed by the DID group are consistent with symptoms associated with complex trauma exposure and dissociative reactions. The SIMS total score had a sensitivity of 96% but an unacceptably low specificity of 14%. CONCLUSIONS The findings indicate that the instrument is not accurate in assessing potential symptom exaggeration or feigning in DID.

Abstract
Objectives The aim of the study was to investigate differences in the frequency and types of engagement in sports before, during and after the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) stay-at-home order in Tyrol, Austria. Study design A representative population survey was conducted. Methods A sample of Tyroleans (N = 511) was questioned by a market research institute via an online questionnaire or telephone survey. Results During the stay-at-home order, participants engaged less in sports than before and after the restrictions. However, within-group analyses revealed increasing sport participation in less active groups when comparing the pre- and post-COVID-19 period. Conclusions Despite the restrictions during the stay-at-home order, respondents did engage in sports and promoted their health. Nevertheless, it is still necessary to investigate the long-term effects of the COVID-19 crisis on sports and exercise behaviour as well as the extent to which sports policy measures may be able increase sports participation. In general, participants engaged less in sports during the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) stay-at-home order. Within-group analyses showed increased sports participation in less active groups. Respondents adhered to the outdoor sports ban and did home training instead. Appropriateness of regulations implemented in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic was measured. Crises such as COVID-19 might have a long-term impact on sports participation.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Aromatic L-amino acid decarboxylase (AADC) deficiency is an autosomal recessive inborn error of metabolism, affecting catecholamines and serotonin biosynthesis. Cardinal signs consist in psychomotor delay, hypotonia, oculogyric crises, dystonia, and extraneurological symptoms. PATIENTS AND METHODS We present a retrospective descriptive multicentric study concerning ten French children with a biochemical and molecular confirmed diagnosis of AADC deficiency. RESULTS Clinical presentation of most of our patients was consistent with the previous descriptions from the literature (hypotonia (nine children), autonomic signs (nine children), sleep disorders (eight children), oculogyric crises (eight children), motor disorders like hypertonia and involuntary movements (seven children)). We described however some phenotypic particularities. Two patients exhibited normal intellectual abilities (patients already described in the literature). We also underlined the importance of digestive symptoms like diarrhea, which occurred in five among the ten patients. We report in particular two children with chronic diarrhea, complicated by severe failure to thrive. Vanillactic acid (VLA) elevation in urines of one of these two patients led to suspect the diagnosis of AADC deficiency, as in two other patients from our population. CONCLUSION Some symptoms like chronic diarrhea were atypical and have been poorly described in the literature up to now. Diagnosis of the AADC deficiency is sometimes difficult because of the phenotypic heterogeneity of the disease and VLA elevation in urines should suggest the diagnosis.

Abstract
Pontocerebellar hypoplasias (PCH) are characterized by lack of development and/or early neurodegeneration of cerebellum and brainstem. We report five patients referred for PCH, showing atypical clinical and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) features suggestive of defects in the Reelin pathway. We screened for mutations in RELN or VLDLR and compared the phenotype of these patients with that of previously reported patients. All patients had profound cerebellar hypoplasia on MRI with peculiar cerebellar morphology, associated with flattened pons and neocortical abnormalities. Patient 1 had profound motor and intellectual disability with moderate lissencephaly suggestive of RELN mutations and was shown to harbor a splicing homozygous RELN mutation. The four other patients had a milder phenotype consistent with CARMQ1 (cerebellar ataxia and mental retardation with or without quadrupedal locomotion). These patients showed mild simplification or thickening of cortical gyration and had VLDLR mutations. Reelin signaling regulates neuronal migration in the developing mammalian brain. VLDLR is a key component of the Reelin pathway. Our patients had a very small and dysplatic cerebellar vermis that should suggest the involvement of these genes. Moreover, differences in clinical severity, involvement of the cerebellar hemispheres, together with the severity of the neocortical defect, enables RELN-mutated patients to be distinguished from VLDLR-mutated patients.

Abstract
When modeling ultrasonic wave propagation in metals, it is important to introduce mesoscopic crystalline structures because the anisotropy of the crystal structure and the heterogeneity of grains disturb ultrasonic waves. In this paper, a three-dimensional (3D) polycrystalline structure generated by multiphase-field modeling was introduced to ultrasonic simulation for nondestructive testing. 3D finite-element simulations of ultrasonic waves were validated and compared with visualization results obtained from laser Doppler vibrometer measurements. The simulation results and measurements showed good agreement with respect to the velocity and front shape of the pressure wave, as well as multiple scattering due to grains. This paper discussed the applicability of a transversely isotropic approach to ultrasonic wave propagation in a polycrystalline metal with columnar structures.

Abstract
WFS1 mutations are responsible for Wolfram syndrome (WS) characterized by juvenile-onset diabetes mellitus and optic atrophy, and for low-frequency sensorineural hearing loss (LFSNHL). Our aim was to analyze the French cohort of 96 patients with WFS1-related disorders in order (i) to update clinical and molecular data with 37 novel affected individuals, (ii) to describe uncommon phenotypes and, (iii) to precise the frequency of large-scale rearrangements in WFS1. We performed quantitative polymerase chain reaction (PCR) in 13 patients, carrying only one heterozygous variant, to identify large-scale rearrangements in WFS1. Among the 37 novel patients, 15 carried 15 novel deleterious putative mutations, including one large deletion of 17,444 base pairs. The analysis of the cohort revealed unexpected phenotypes including (i) late-onset symptoms in 13.8% of patients with a probable autosomal recessive transmission; (ii) two siblings with recessive optic atrophy without diabetes mellitus and, (iii) six patients from four families with dominantly-inherited deafness and optic atrophy. We highlight the expanding spectrum of WFS1-related disorders and we show that, even if large deletions are rare events, they have to be searched in patients with classical WS carrying only one WFS1 mutation after sequencing.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Blood drawings are very painful and stressful for children. In a prospective control group study we investigated if using a picture book could reduce the children's pain expectation. In addition, the children's pain experience and the observed pain behaviour was monitored. PATIENTS/METHODS Block-randomization were used and 120 children at the age of 6-12 years who were visiting the general pediatric and coagulation outpatient clinics were included in this study. Pain expectation and experience were assessed with the Face-Pain-Scale-Revised and the pain behavior with the Faces-Legs-Activity-Cry-Consolability Scale. Multivariate covariance analysis was used for data analysis. RESULTS The results showed that with statistical controlling the influence of the primary pain expectation (baseline) the pain expectation before blood withdrawal was reduced significantly (p=0.001) and effectively (ES=0.56) using the picture book. Children who received no local anaesthesia reported that they felt less pain during blood drawing after reading the picture book. The few children with local anaesthesia reported no benefit from the picture book. The observed use of local anaesthesia was very heterogeneous. CONCLUSIONS The results recommend the usage of this picture book in everyday practice, if the use of local anaesthesia could not be used in an appropriate way.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Whereas propionic acidemia (PA) is a target disease of newborn screening (NBS) in many countries, it is not in others. Data on the benefit of NBS for PA are sparse. STUDY DESIGN Twenty PA patients diagnosed through NBS were compared to 35 patients diagnosed by selective metabolic screening (SMS) prompted by clinical findings, family history, or routine laboratory test results. Clinical and biochemical data of patients from 16 metabolic centers in Germany, Austria, and Switzerland were evaluated retrospectively. Additionally, assessment of the intelligent quotient (IQ) was performed. In a second step, the number of PA patients who have died within the past 20 years was estimated based on information provided by the participating metabolic centers. RESULTS Patients diagnosed through NBS had neither a milder clinical course regarding the number of metabolic crises nor a better neurological outcome. Among NBS patients, 63% were already symptomatic at the time of diagnosis, and <10% of all patients remained asymptomatic. Among all PA patients, 76% were found to be at least mildly mentally retarded, with an IQ <69. IQ was negatively correlated with the number of metabolic decompensations, but not simply with the patients' age. Physical development was also impaired in the majority of patients. Mortality rates tended to be lower in NBS patients compared with patients diagnosed by SMS. CONCLUSION Early diagnosis of PA through NBS seems to be associated with a lower mortality rate. However, no significant benefit could be shown for surviving patients with regard to their clinical course, including the number of metabolic crises, physical and neurocognitive development, and long-term complications.
