Abstract
Abstract
Background
The incidence of diabetes mellitus and coronary artery disease continue to rise and collectively comprise two of the most prevalent and costly diseases worldwide. The goal of this study is to report the prognosis of young patients with diabetes presented with acute myocardial infarction (AMI).
Methods
This is a retrospective observational cohort study that included consecutive patients aged 18–45 years who underwent cardiac catheterization for AMI between 2006 and 2016 in an integrated healthcare system in Southern California. The prognosis of patients with diabetes were compared to those without diabetes.
Results
A total of 1,560 patients (average age 40.2±5.3 years, 25.6% female) presenting with AMI were included. Of these 272 (17.4%) had diabetes. Diabetics were older (41.1±4.4 vs 40.0±5.4 years), more likely to be female (32.4% vs 24.1%, p=0.006), Hispanic (51.5% vs 40.5%, p<0.001), have a higher body mass index (BMI) (33.6±7.1 vs 31.2±6.8kg/m2, p<0.001), have hypertension (HTN) (67.6% vs 23.8%, p<0.001), hyperlipidemia (HLD) (78.3% vs 24.1%, p<0.001), peripheral vascular disease (9.9% vs 1.9%, p<0.001), chronic kidney disease (CKD) (23.2% vs 2.7%, p<0.001), hypothyroidism (7% vs 4%, p=0.034), and prior strokes (4.4% vs 2.2%, p=0.034).
On multivariate analysis accounting for other cardiovascular risk factors, the association remained significant (OR 1.82, 95% CI 1.04–3.19, p=0.036). At a median follow-up of 5.8 years (interquartile range 3.7–8.7 years), diabetes was independently associated with increased all-cause mortality (Hazard ratio [HR] 3.10, 95% CI 1.68–5.69, p<0.001) when adjusting for age, sex, race, BMI, HTN, HLD, CKD, hypothyroidism, prior stroke, and ACS etiology. In a propensity score matched cohort, diabetes remained significantly associated with all-cause mortality (HR 5.29, 95% CI 2.34–12.02, p<0.001).
Conclusion
Diabetes is an independent predictor of increased mortality in young adults <45 years old presenting with AMI.

Abstract
BACKGROUND CONTEXT Spine patients have a higher rate of depression then the general population which may be caused in part by levels of pain and disability from their spinal disease. PURPOSE Determination whether improvements in health-related quality of life (HRQOL) resulting from successful spine surgery leads to improvements in mental health. STUDY DESIGN/SETTING The Canadian Spine Outcome Research Network prospective surgical outcome registry. OUTCOME MEASURES Change between preoperative and postoperative SF12 Mental Component Score (MCS). Secondary outcomes include European Quality of Life (EuroQoL) Healthstate, SF-12 Physical Component Score (PCS), Oswestry Disability Index (ODI), Patient Health Questionaire-9 (PHQ9), and pain scales. METHODS The Canadian Spine Outcome Research Network registry was queried for all patients receiving surgery for degenerative thoracolumbar spine disease. Exclusion criteria were trauma, tumor, infection, and previous spine surgery. SF12 Mental Component Scores (MCS) were compared between those with and without significant improvement in postoperative disability (ODI) and secondary measures. Multivariate analysis examined factors predictive of MCS improvement. RESULTS Eighteen hospitals contributed 3222 eligible patients. Worse ODI, EuroQoL, PCS, back pain and leg pain correlated with worse MCS at all time points. Overall, patients had an improvement in MCS that occurred within 3 months of surgery and was still present 24 months after surgery. Patients exceeding Minimally Clinically Important Differences in ODI had the greatest improvements in MCS. Major depression prevalence decreased up to 48% following surgery, depending on spine diagnosis. CONCLUSIONS Large scale, real world, registry data suggests that successful surgery for degenerative lumbar disease is associated with reduction in the prevalence of major depression regardless of the specific underlaying diagnosis. Worse baseline MCS was associated with worse baseline HRQOL and improved postoperatively with coincident improvement in disability, emphasizing that mental wellness is not a static state but may improve with well-planned spine surgery.

Abstract
Measurement of the oxidation state of cytochrome c oxidase (oxCCO) can inform directly on neuronal metabolism. Conventionally this has been measured in vivo using benchtop broadband near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) systems. Spatially resolved measures of oxCCO have recently been made possible using a multichannel fibre-based broadband NIRS system. We describe the use of a fibreless multiwavelength NIRS system using light emitting diodes (LED) designed specifically to image localised changes in oxCCO and hence neuronal metabolism. A fibreless system consisting of four modules, each containing two LED sources and four photodiode detectors, was developed. Each LED source contained eight LED dies (780, 811, 818, 842, 850, 882, 891 and 901 nm) assembled in an area of 1.5 × 1.5 mm. A well-established hyperoxia protocol was used to evaluate the oxCCO spatially resolved measurement capabilities of the system and, subsequently, its imaging capabilities were tested using a functional activation paradigm. A multi-spectral image reconstruction approach was used to provide images of Δ[HbO2], Δ[HHb] and Δ[oxCCO] from the multi-distance, multi-channel optical datasets. This novel fibreless multiwavelength NIRS system allows imaging of localised changes in oxCCO in the human brain, and has potential for development as an inexpensive, wearable, continuous monitor of cerebral energetics in a range of experimental and clinical scenarios.

Abstract
Functional hyperaemia, characterised as an increase in concentration of oxyhaemoglobin [HbO2] and a decrease in concentration of deoxyhaemoglobin [HHb] in response to neuronal activity, can be precisely mapped using diffuse optical spectroscopy. However, such techniques do not directly measure changes in metabolic activity during neuronal activation. Changes in the redox state of cerebral oxidised cytochrome c oxidase Δ[oxCCO] measured by broadband spectroscopy may be a more specific marker of neuronal metabolic activity. This study aims to investigate the spatial distribution of Δ[oxCCO] responses during the activation of the visual cortex in the healthy adult human brain, and reconstruct images of these changes. Multi-channel broadband NIRS measurements were collected from the left visual cortex of four healthy volunteers using an in-house broadband spectrometer during an inverting checkerboard visual stimulation paradigm. Δ[HbO2], Δ[HHb] and Δ[oxCCO] were calculated by fitting the broadband spectra between 780 and 900 nm using the UCLn algorithm. Centre of gravity analysis was applied to the concentration data to determine the centres of activation for [HbO2], [HHb] and [oxCCO]. All four subjects showed similar changes in [oxCCO] in the presence of a typical visual-evoked haemodynamic response in channels overlying the visual cortex. Image reconstruction of the optical data showed a clear and spatially localized activation for all three chromophores. Centre of gravity analysis showed different localisation of the changes in each of the three chromophores across the visual cortex with the x-y coordinates of the mean centres of gravity (across 4 subjects) of HbO2, HHb and oxCCO at (63.1 mm; 24.8 mm), (56.2 mm; 21.0 mm) and (63.7 mm; 23.8 mm), respectively. The spatial distribution of Δ[oxCCO] response appears distinct from the haemodynamic response in the human visual cortex. Image reconstruction of Δ[oxCCO] shows considerable promise as a technique to visualise regional variation in [oxCCO] in a range of scenarios.

Abstract
2031 Background: There is increasing evidence that angiogenesis inhibition may potentiate the effects of radiation therapy (RT) and chemotherapy in patients with glioblastoma (GBM). In addition, inhibition of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) may be of therapeutic benefit, as EGFR is often upregulated in GBM and contributes to radiation resistance. We conducted a phase I study of vandetanib, an inhibitor of VEGFR2 and EGFR, in patients with newly-diagnosed GBM in combination with RT and temozolomide (TMZ). Methods: Using a standard 3 + 3 dose escalation design, 13 newly-diagnosed GBM patients received vandetanib with RT (60 Gy) and concurrent TMZ 75 mg/m2 daily, followed by adjuvant TMZ for up to 12 cycles (150–200 mg/m2 on days 1–5 of each 28 day cycle). The maximum tolerated dose (MTD) was defined as the dose with ≤1/6 dose-limiting toxicities (DLT). Eligible patients were adults with newly-diagnosed GBM or gliosarcoma, Karnofsky performance status of ≥60%, normal organ function, and not taking enzyme-inducing anti-epileptic drugs. MTD was determined by evaluation of DLTs during the first 12 weeks of therapy. Results: Six patients were treated with vandetanib at 200 mg daily. 2/6 patients developed DLTs (grade 5 gastrointestinal hemorrhage and grade 3 thrombocytopenia in one patient and grade 4 neutropenia in one patient). Seven patients were treated at 100 mg daily with no DLTs observed, establishing 100 mg daily as the MTD. Of 10 evaluable patients, one had a minor response (10%), defined as 25% to <50% reduction in enhancing area for 8 weeks; eight had stable disease (80%), defined as <25% increase or decrease; and one had progressive disease (10%). Conclusions: These data suggest that vandetanib may be combined with RT and TMZ in GBM patients. A randomized phase II study in which patients receive RT and TMZ with or without vandetanib 100 mg daily is underway. [Table: see text]

Abstract
Lipoxygenases are an important class of non-heme iron enzymes that catalyze the hydroperoxidation of unsaturated fatty acids. The details of the enzymatic mechanism of lipoxygenases are still not well understood. This study utilizes a combination of kinetic and structural probes to relate the lipoxygenase mechanism of action with structural modifications of the iron's second coordination sphere. The second coordination sphere consists of Gln(495) and Gln(697), which form a hydrogen bond network between the substrate cavity and the first coordination sphere (Asn(694)). In this investigation, we compared the kinetic and structural properties of four mutants (Q495E, Q495A, Q697N, and Q697E) with those of wild-type soybean lipoxygenase-1 and determined that changes in the second coordination sphere affected the enzymatic activity by hydrogen bond rearrangement and substrate positioning through interaction with Gln(495). The nature of the C-H bond cleavage event remained unchanged, which demonstrates that the mutations have not affected the mechanism of hydrogen atom tunneling. The unusual and dramatic inverse solvent isotope effect (SIE) observed for the Q697E mutant indicated that an Fe(III)-OH(-) is the active site base. A new transition state model for hydrogen atom abstraction is proposed.

Abstract
A controlled cortical impact model of head injury was validated with mice. Mice were randomly assigned to moderate head injury, mild head injury, and sham injury groups. Beam balancing, open field activity, slant board inclination, grasp strength, and motor coordination were assessed prior to the injury and on days 1-5 postinjury. Morris water maze performance was evaluated on days 11-15 postinjury. Moderately head-injured mice took a significantly longer time to complete the motor coordination task and to find the hidden platform on the Morris water maze and had significantly fewer successful trials on both tasks than the mildly head-injured and sham-injured mice. Mildly head-injured and sham-injured mice performed similarly on both tasks. Contusion volume at the site of impact varied with severity of injury. Moderately head-injured mice had significantly larger contusions than mice with a mild head injury, and these mice in turn had significantly larger contusions than the sham-injured mice. Both moderately and mildly head injured mice had significantly fewer surviving cells in CA1 than the sham-injured mice but did not differ from each other in this regard. Although there was a group effect, only the mildly head-injured mice had significantly fewer surviving cells in CA3.

Abstract
The gene encoding fructokinase (EC 2.7.1.4) from Zymomonas mobilis has been expressed at high level in Escherichia coli by modifying the ribosome binding site using the polymerase chain reaction. A simple two-step purification from extracts of the recombinant cells results in highly purified enzyme suitable for use in fructose determination. Using the polymerase chain reaction in mutagenic conditions, a variant of fructokinase was isolated which was more thermostable than the wild type, taking the 30 min half-life from 70.1 to 72.4 degrees C. The purified thermostable variant had the same specific activity as the wild type. Sequencing of the variant indicated that only one amino acid was changed, with Ser 69 becoming Ala. Searches of the mutant libraries for variants that were (a) active with glucose or (b) had reduced inhibition by glucose were unsuccessful.

Abstract
Experiments utilizing surgical parasympathectomy of discrete fat pad ganglia on the surface of the heart have suggested that there are two anatomically segregated and physiologically independent parasympathetic intracardiac ganglia which are capable of selective control of sino-atrial (SA) rate and atrio-ventricular (AV) conduction. Some pharmacological data, however, are inconsistent with these conclusions. We have examined the cardiodynamic effects of discrete injections of a ganglionic blocking drug into two fat pads on the surface of the cat heart. These fat pads were shown to contain ganglion cells histologically. It was observed that vagal effects upon cardiac rate are selectively mediated by neurons located in ganglia overlying the right pulmonary veins at the junction of the right atrium and superior vena cava. On the other hand, vagal effects upon AV conduction were selectively mediated by neurons located in a fat pad at the junction of the inferior vena cava and the inferior left atrium. These pharmacological data support the concept that specific intracardiac ganglia are capable of selective control of SA rate and AV conduction.

A breast-fed boy, born to first-cousin parents, had been vomiting since birth; his general condition remained good until age 6 weeks when vomiting became more frequent, and his status suddenly worsened, with polypnea, shock, hypothermia, jaundice, presence of blood in urine, gastric juice, stool, and bleeding tendency during veno-punctures. There was an huge hepatomegaly and a splenomegaly. Hypoglycaemia, metabolic acidosis, severe blood coagulation disturbances, elevated liver enzymes, hypoalbuminemia, pointed to an acute liver failure. He was resuscitated with current supportive measures, and was given a wide spectrum antibiotherapy. Because serologic tests for syphilis were positive in the child and his mother, including the presence of specific IgM the infant was then given Penicillin G therapy only, which resulted in a complete recovery. One month later, a needle liver biopsy showed residual signs of hepatitis. Other possible infectious or metabolic causes of acute liver failure occurring early in life had been excluded.
