Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare the concentrations of high mobility group box 1 protein (HMGB1) and S100A8/A9 in synovial fluid between patients with knee injuries and osteoarthritis (OA), and knee healthy subjects. To investigate associations of alarmin levels with different joint injuries and with biomarkers of inflammation, Wnt signaling, complement system, bone and cartilage degradation. METHODS HMGB1 and S100A8/A9 were measured in synovial fluid by immunoassays in patients with knee injuries, with OA and from knee healthy subjects, and were related to time from injury and with biomarkers obtained from previous studies. Hierarchical cluster and enrichment analyses of biomarkers associated to HMGB1 and S100A8/A9 were performed. RESULTS The synovial fluid HMGB1 and S100A8/A9 concentrations were increased early after knee injury; S100A8/A9 levels were negatively associated to time after injury and was lower in the old compared to recent injury group, while HMGB1 was not associated to time after injury. The S100A8/A9 levels were also increased in OA. The initial inflammatory response was similar between the alarmins, and HMGB1 and S100A8/A9 shared 9 out of 20 enriched pathways. The alarmins displayed distinct response profiles, HMGB1 being associated to cartilage biomarkers while S100A8/A9 was associated to proinflammatory cytokines. CONCLUSIONS HMGB1 and S100A8/A9 are increased as an immediate response to knee trauma. While they share many features in inflammatory and immunoregulatory mechanisms, S100A8/A9 and HMGB1 are associated to different downstream responses, which may have impact on the OA progression after acute knee injuries.

Abstract
Background:The disintegrin and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin motifs-5 (ADAMTS-5) is a key enzyme in OA (Verma P,et al.J Cell Biochem 2011;112:3507-14). In preclinical models of OA, S201086, a potent and selective ADAMTS-5 inhibitor, protects from cartilage degradation (Clement-Lacroix,et al.Osteoarthritis Cartilage 2017;25:S58). Therefore, S201086 is co-developed by Servier and Galapagos (GLPG1972) as a potential new treatment in OA.Objectives:This phase I study was to assess and compare the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of S201086 in healthy male Japanese and Caucasian subjects.Methods:Six ascending single doses of S201086 (50 to 1500 mg) were administered orally as tablets in fasting conditions in 6 groups of 8 Japanese subjects (aged 20-45 years) and 3 ascending multiple doses (300, 600 or 1050 mg/day for 14 days) were administered orally as tablets in fed conditions in 3 groups of 8 Japanese subjects. Additionally, 2 cohorts of 8 Caucasian subjects received either a single oral dose of 300 mg or repeated oral dose of 300 mg once daily for 14 days. In each group, 6 subjects received S201086 and 2 placebo. Plasma was collected at several time points for the quantification of S201086 by LC-MS/MS. Plasma pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated via non-compartmental analysis using Phoenix® WinNonlin® software. Pharmacodynamics was assessed by measurement of the aggrecan ARGS neoepitope levels in serum by ELISA.Results:No serious adverse drug reactions were observed after administration of single and multiple ascending doses of S201086 in either Japanese or Caucasian subjects. Most adverse events were of mild to moderate intensity and were resolved by the end of the study. Following single administration to Japanese subjects, Cmax and AUC increased proportionally with doses from 50 to 600 mg and slightly less than dose-proportionally from 600 to 1500 mg, consistent with what was previously observed in the first in-human study in healthy Caucasian subjects (van der Aar E,et al.Osteoarthritis Cartilage 2018;26:S310). In Japanese subjects, after 14-days administration, a limited 1.2- to 1.4-fold accumulation was observed on both Cmax and AUC at Day14 as compared to Day1, and the steady-state exposure increased dose-proportionally within the 300-1050 mg dose range. Taking the inter-subject variability into account, no difference was observed in Cmax and AUC between Caucasian and Japanese subjects after single administrations of 300 mg and repeated administrations of 300 mg once daily for 14 days. The serum ARGS neoepitope levels decreased between baseline and last day of treatment for S201086-treated subjects but not for subjects receiving placebo. This decrease was similar for the 3 tested doses in Japanese subjects and was significant as compared to the placebo-treated subjects.Table.Comparison of ARGS concentration relative change from baseline to last day of treatment according to dose in Japanese participantsS 201086 300 mg (N = 6)S 201086 600 mg (N = 6)S 201086 1050 mg (N = 6)Placebo (N = 6)Descriptive Statistics(D14 pre-dose – Baseline) / Baselinen6646Mean ± SD-42.67 ± 8.81-53.70 ± 6.50-54.11 ± 5.2013.35 ± 16.53Statistical analysisE (SE)56.01 (6.156)67.04 (6.156)67.45 (6.883)95% CI43.08; 68.9554.11; 79.9752.99; 81.91p-value< 0.0001< 0.0001< 0.0001Conclusion:S201086 was shown to be safe and well-tolerated in Japanese and Caucasian healthy male subjects with a suitable PK profile and a significant decrease of the ARGS neoepitope, indicating target engagement.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To estimate the association between molecular or imaging inflammatory biomarkers at 2 years after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury and patient-reported outcomes at 5 years. METHODS For 116 ACL-injured patients, molecular biomarkers of inflammation (synovial fluid and serum cytokines) and Hoffa- and effusion-synovitis as visualized on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) were assessed 2 years post-injury. Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS) and SF-36 were assessed at 2 and 5 years. We used multiple imputation to handle biomarker values that were below the level of detection or missing, and linear regression for statistical analyses. RESULTS None of the synovial fluid cytokines or imaging biomarkers of inflammation at 2 years were associated with any of the patient-reported outcomes at 5 years. With each log10 unit higher of serum tumor necrosis factor concentration the knee-related quality of life of KOOS was increased (i.e., better outcome) by 35 (95% confidence interval 7 to 63) points. No other serum biomarker measured at 2 years was associated with patient-reported outcome at 5 years. CONCLUSION Local joint inflammation assessed by biomarkers in synovial fluid and Hoffa- and effusion-synovitis on MRI at 2 years after an ACL injury did not associate with patient-reported outcomes at 5 years. Thus, chronic inflammation in the ACL-injured knee, as reflected by the biomarkers studied here, seems not to be a key determinant for the long-term patient-reported outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Long-term prospective data on patient-reported outcome after surgical treatment of pelvic ring injuries are scarce. This study aimed at describing results at 5 years post-surgery using validated outcome measures. PATIENTS AND METHODS Patients admitted for surgical treatment of pelvic ring injuries were prospectively included and asked to report their outcome at 1, 2 and 5 years post-surgery using two patient-reported outcome measures: the generic Short-Form 36 and the condition-specific pelvic discomfort index. Data were evaluated using mixed-effects linear models. RESULTS There were 108 patients (68 males and 40 females), mean age 38 years. Injury type according to the AO/OTA-classification was B-type in 68 patients and C-type in 40 patients. No domain of the Short-Form 36 reached norm values at 5 years post-surgery. Females reported a worse outcome than males concerning general health (p < 0.01) at 5 years. Recovery of physical function (p < 0.01), mental health (p = 0.04), and pain (p = 0.01) was observed for males at 5 years compared to earlier assessments, while females on the contrary described more pain at this time-point (p = 0.03). Mean pelvic discomfort index at 5 years was 27, indicating moderate residual pelvic discomfort overall. Males reported less pelvic discomfort than females at 5 years (p = 0.02) and improved when compared to results at 2 years (p = 0.02), while females did not. Influence of age, fracture type, and presence of associated injuries on patient-reported outcome was limited. CONCLUSION Surgically treated pelvic ring injuries are associated with long-standing negative effects on patient-reported outcome. Males report a better outcome than females at 5 years post-surgery.

Abstract
The gamma-ray sky has been observed with unprecedented accuracy in the last decade by the Fermi -large area telescope (LAT), allowing us to resolve and understand the high-energy Universe. The nature of the remaining unresolved emission [unresolved gamma-ray background (UGRB)] below the LAT source detection threshold can be uncovered by characterizing the amplitude and angular scale of the UGRB fluctuation field. This Letter presents a measurement of the UGRB autocorrelation angular power spectrum based on eight years of Fermi-LAT Pass 8 data products. The analysis is designed to be robust against contamination from resolved sources and noise systematics. The sensitivity to subthreshold sources is greatly enhanced with respect to previous measurements. We find evidence (with ∼3.7σ significance) that the scenario in which two classes of sources contribute to the UGRB signal is favored over a single class. A double power law with exponential cutoff can explain the anisotropy energy spectrum well, with photon indices of the two populations being 2.55±0.23 and 1.86±0.15.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In Europe and elsewhere there is rising concern about inequality in health and increased prevalence of mental ill-health. Structural determinants such as welfare state arrangements may impact on levels of mental health and social inequalities. This systematic review aims to assess the current evidence on whether structural determinants are associated with inequalities in mental health outcomes. METHODS We conducted a systematic review of quantitative studies published between 1996 and 2017 based on search results from the following databases Medline, Embase, PsychInfo, Web of Science, Sociological Abstracts and Eric. Studies were included if they focused on inequalities (measured by socio-economic position and gender), structural determinants (i.e. public policies affecting the whole population) and showed a change or comparison in mental health status in one (or more) of the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) countries. All studies were assessed for inclusion and study quality by two independent reviewers. Data were extracted and synthesised using narrative analysis. RESULTS Twenty-one articles (17 studies) met the inclusion criteria. Studies were heterogeneous with regards to methodology, mental health outcomes and policy settings. More comprehensive and gender inclusive welfare states (e.g. Nordic welfare states) had better mental health outcomes, especially for women, and less gender-related inequality. Nordic welfare regimes may also decrease inequalities between lone and couple mothers. A strong welfare state does not buffer against socio-economic inequalities in mental health outcomes. Austerity measures tended to worsen mental health and increase inequalities. Area-based initiatives and educational policy are understudied. CONCLUSION Although the literature on structural determinants and inequalities in mental health is limited, our review shows some evidence supporting the causal effects of structural determinants on mental health inequalities. The lack of evidence should not be interpreted as lack of effect. Future studies should apply innovative methods to overcome the inherent methodological challenges in this area, as structural determinants potentially affect both levels of mental health and social inequalities.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To monitor longitudinal changes of cartilage oligomeric matrix protein (COMP) in synovial fluid (sf) and serum (s) over 5 years after acute anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) rupture, and to compare results from two commercial COMP immunoassays. DESIGN Bio-fluids were collected from 121 patients on six occasions over 5 years after acute ACL injury, and from 25 knee healthy reference subjects. Concentrations of sf- and sCOMP were measured by AnaMar (sCOMP-Ana) and by BioVendor (sf- and sCOMP-Bio) immunoassays; other biomarkers were previously assessed. We used ANCOVA for group comparisons and linear mixed models for associations between biomarkers over 5-years with P < 0.05 considered a statistically significant difference or association. RESULTS Compared to the reference group, sfCOMP-Bio concentrations were 2-fold elevated within 6 weeks after ACL injury and remained elevated 5 years thereafter, whereas sCOMP-Bio and sCOMP-Ana concentrations were no different from reference levels at any time point. Over the 5-year period, there was an association between sCOMP-Bio and sCOMP-Ana concentrations, although neither sCOMP-Bio nor sCOMP-Ana associated with sfCOMP-Bio. sfCOMP-Bio associated with SF ARGS-aggrecan, urine type I and II collagens (uNTX-I and uCTX-II) and SF cytokines, while sCOMP-Bio associated inversely with uCTX-II, uNTX-I and SF cytokines. CONCLUSION The local process after an acute ACL injury generates increased SF COMP concentrations in the injured knee up to 5 years after injury. This response is not detected in serum. Discrepancies in associations between sCOMP measured by BioVendor and AnaMar immunoassays with other biomarkers indicate differences in detected COMP fragments.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To explore the involvement of the wingless-type MMTV integration site (WNT) and bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) antagonists dickkopf-related protein 1 (DKK1), frizzled-related protein (FRZB) and gremlin 1 (GREM1) in knee injury and osteoarthritis (OA). DESIGN The antagonists were immunoassayed in synovial fluid from a cross-sectional cohort of nine knee healthy reference subjects, patients with recent (0-77 days, n = 158) or old (1-37 years, n = 50) knee injuries, and OA (n = 22). Cartilage (ARGS-aggrecan, cartilage oligomeric matrix protein and C2C type II collagen) and other biomarkers were assessed in synovial fluid in a subset of samples. Statistical analysis was by Kendall's tau (τ) correlation, Mann-Whitney U test, and linear regression analysis. RESULTS Compared to references, median concentration of GREM1 (but not DKK1 and FRZB) was elevated 1.5-fold immediately after injury, and FRZB was reduced 1000-folds in OA. All three antagonists decreased with increasing time after injury as well as with increasing age, but the temporal change after injury was less accentuated for FRZB (peaked 8-22 days after injury) compared to that of DKK1 and GREM1 (peaked immediately after injury). In the recent injury group, there was a correlation between GREM1 and DKK1 (τ = 0.172); FRZB concentrations correlated with concentrations of cartilage biomarkers (τ between 0.257 and 0.369), while DKK1 and GREM1 were inversely correlated (τ between -0.177 and -0.217) with these markers. CONCLUSIONS Our results indicate separate roles for the antagonists, where DKK1 and GREM1 had similarities in response to injury and in OA, with a different response for FRZB.

Abstract
Introduction: This study aimed to evaluate clinical results after plaster cast fixation for 10 days versus 1 month of moderately displaced and reduced distal radius fractures. Material and Methods: In a prospective randomized study, 109 patients with moderately displaced and conservatively treated distal radius fractures (age ≥50 years) were randomized 10 days after reduction to either removal of the plaster cast and immediate mobilization (active group) or to continued plaster cast fixation for another 3 weeks (control group). Grip strength, pincer strength, range of motion, and pain were assessed at 1, 4, and 12 months after reduction. Clinical outcome was evaluated using three functional assessment scores at 12 months. Results: Treatment failed in 3/54 (6%) patients in the active group. One of these patients had the plaster cast reinstituted because of feelings of instability. The fractures in the other two patients displaced severely after mobilization and were therefore treated surgically. For the remaining 51 patients in the active group, the range of wrist motion was slightly better at 1 month compared with the controls, but there were no differences in grip or pincer strength or pain at the 1-month follow-up. There were no differences between the active and control group in any outcome at 4 or 12 months, including functional assessment scores at 12 months. Conclusion: Treatment with mobilization 10 days after reduction of moderately displaced distal radius fractures resulted in a few treatment failures compared with none among controls. The only functional benefit for the remaining patients was a small and transient increase in range of motion at the 1-month follow-up. Plaster cast removal 10 days after reduction in moderately displaced distal radius fractures is therefore not recommended.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Prospectively monitor how treatment of acutely ruptured anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) affects biomarkers of inflammation and proteolytic degradation over 5 years. DESIGN We studied 119 subjects with acute ACL injury from the randomized controlled knee anterior cruciate ligament, non-surgical versus surgical treatment (KANON)-trial (Clinical trial ISRCTN 84752559) who had synovial fluid, serum and urine samples available from at least two out of six visits over 5 years after acute ACL rupture. All subjects followed a similar rehabilitation protocol where, according to randomization, 60 also had early ACL reconstruction and 59 had the option to undergo a delayed ACL reconstruction if needed. Interleukin (IL)-6, IL-8, IL-10, interferon-gamma (IFNγ), tumor necrosis factor (TNF), amino acids alanine, arginine, glycine, serine (ARGS)-aggrecan, C-terminal crosslinking telopeptide type II collagen (CTX-II) and N-terminal crosslinking telopeptide type I collagen (NTX-I) were quantified by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA). RESULTS Subjects randomized to early ACL reconstruction had higher cytokine concentrations in index knee synovial fluid at 4 months (IL-6, IL-8, IL-10, TNF), 8 months (IL-6 and TNF) and at 5 years (IFNγ) compared to those randomized to optional delayed reconstruction. Those that underwent delayed ACL reconstruction within 5 years (30 subjects), had higher synovial fluid concentrations of IL-6 at 5 years compared to those treated with rehabilitation alone. No differences between groups were noted for ARGS-aggrecan in synovial fluid and serum or CTX-II and NTX-I in urine over 5 years, neither as randomized nor as treated. CONCLUSIONS Surgical ACL reconstruction constitutes a second trauma to the acutely injured joint resulting in a prolonged elevation of already high synovial fluid levels of inflammatory cytokines.

Abstract
The Large Area Telescope on board the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope has collected the largest ever sample of high-energy cosmic-ray electron and positron events since the beginning of its operation. Potential anisotropies in the arrival directions of cosmic-ray electrons or positrons could be a signature of the presence of nearby sources. We use almost seven years of data with energies above 42 GeV processed with the Pass 8 reconstruction. The present data sample can probe dipole anisotropies down to a level of 10^{-3}. We take into account systematic effects that could mimic true anisotropies at this level. We present a detailed study of the event selection optimization of the cosmic-ray electrons and positrons to be used for anisotropy searches. Since no significant anisotropies have been detected on any angular scale, we present upper limits on the dipole anisotropy. The present constraints are among the strongest to date probing the presence of nearby young and middle-aged sources.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Bisphenol A (BPA) is a chemical produced in large volumes for use in manufacturing of consumer products and industrial applications, and an endocrine disruptor known to affect several hormonal systems. Bone produces hormones and is additionally a sensitive hormone target tissue, and is thus potentially sensitive to low doses of endocrine disruptors such as BPA, especially during development. METHODS 110 pregnant Wistar rats were gavaged with 0; 25 μg; 250 μg; 5000 μg or 50,000 μg BPA/kg bodyweight (bw)/day from gestational day 7 until weaning at postnatal day 22. The three-month-old offspring were sacrificed and right femurs collected for length measurements, geometrical measurements by peripheral quantitative computed tomography (pQCT), as well as for analyses of biomechanical properties using the three-point-bending method. RESULTS The femur was elongated in female offspring of dams exposed to 25 or 5000 μg BPA/kg bw/day (1.8% and 2.1%, respectively), and increased cortical thickness (4.7%) was observed in male offspring of dams exposed to 25 μg BPA/kg bw/day, compared to controls (p < 0.005). The biomechanical properties of the bone were not significantly altered. CONCLUSIONS In utero and lactational exposure to the lowest BPA dose used in this study altered femoral geometry in both male and female offspring. This was observed at 25 μg BPA/kg bw/day, a dose lower than the Human Equivalent Dose (HED) applied by EFSA to set a temporary TDI (609 μg BPA/kg bw/day), and far lower than the No-Observed-Adverse-Effect-Level (NOAEL) (5000 μg BPA/kg bw/day) on which the US FDA TDI is based.

Abstract
Background and Aims: Internal fixation of displaced femoral neck fractures is associated with a high risk for complications such as non-union or avascular necrosis. A stable fracture fixation can improve prognosis although stability is often counteracted by weak osteoporotic bone. The aim with this study was to evaluate whether augmentation with resorbable calcium-phosphate cement could improve fracture stability during the early period after surgery as shown in biomechanical studies. Material and Methods: 40 ambulatory patients with a displaced femoral neck fracture were randomized to treatment with cannulated screws alone (controls) or screws combined with calcium-phosphate cement for augmentation (augmented). All patients were allowed unrestricted weight bearing after surgery. Fracture movement was measured with radiostereometry (RSA) at 1 and 6 weeks. Results: At 1 week the augmented fractures had moved on average 1.9±1.0 mm while movement in the controls was 5.5±3.4 mm (p < 0.0001). The average total movement at weeks was 6.9±2.9 mm and 10.9±5.1 mm, respectively (p < 0.005). Varus angulation and distal migration of the femoral head were the most common movements for both groups although augmented fractures had moved significantly less at both 1 and 6 weeks. There were no significant differences in angulation between groups around the longitudinal and transversal axes or in migration along the transverse or sagittal axes. Conclusion: Augmentation with calcium-phosphate cement improved the stability of internally fixed femoral neck fractures during the first six weeks after surgery, with improvement being less pronounced at six weeks compared with at one week.

Abstract
Background and Aims: Internally fixed unstable trochanteric fractures might be difficult to retain in position during healing. Secondary displacement might lead to malunion and poor functional result. The aim with this study was to measure whether augmentation with resorbable calcium-phosphate cement could improve fracture stability as shown in biomechanical studies. Material and Methods: 26 ambulatory patients with an unstable trochanteric fracture were randomized to treatment with a sliding screw device alone (Controls) or the same device combined with calcium-phosphate cement for augmentation (Augmented). All patients were allowed unrestricted weight bearing after surgery. Fracture movement was measured with radiostereometry (RSA) at 1 and 6 weeks and at 6 months. Results: Two patients died during the study period due to unrelated causes and another three were excluded due to technical problems with the RSA in two and concomitant illness in one. 21 patients (11 Augmented and 10 Controls) were followed according to the study protocol. At 1 week the augmented fractures had moved on average 1.9 ± 1.7 mm while movement in the controls was 4.0 ± 2.4 mm (p < 0.05). The average total movement from the day after surgery until 6 months, when all fractures had healed, was 7.8 ± 6.2 mm for the augmented fractures and 13.2 ± 4.3 mm for the controls (p < 0.05). Varus angulation was the most pronounced rotational movement for both groups although augmented fractures revealed less varus angulation compared with controls at all time points. Rotation around the longitudinal and transversal axes were small with no significant differences between treatment groups. Conclusion: Augmentation with calcium-phosphate cement improved the stability of unstable trochanteric fractures fixed with a sliding screw device. The improvement was most pronounced for varus angulation and lateral and distal migration of the head and neck fragment.

Abstract
Purpose: To test the hypothesis that diffuse and/or focal air trapping are sensitive indicators of airflow obstruction in smoker's small airways disease, when age, gender and presence of emphysematous lesions were allowed for. Material and Methods: Fifty-eight smokers and 34 never smokers, recruited from a randomized population study of men born in 1933, were investigated by HRCT and by extended pulmonary function tests, including a sensitive test for small airways disease (N2 slope). Diffuse air trapping was evaluated by calculating a quotient of mean lung density at expiration and inspiration. Focal air trapping was scored visually by consensus. Results: Diffuse air trapping did not differ between non-emphysematous smokers and never smokers. Furthermore, diffuse air trapping correlated well to the quotient between the residual volume and total lung capacity (RV/TLC, p = 0.01) and was consequently higher in emphysematous smokers than in never smokers. Focal air trapping was found as frequently in smokers without emphysema as in never smokers. Smokers with emphysema showed significantly less focal air trapping. Neither the N2 slope nor any of the other lung function variables differed between those with and without focal air trapping among non-emphysematous smokers. Conclusion: Neither diffuse nor focal air trapping are sensitive indicators of smoker's small airways disease.

Abstract
Background and Aims: The effectiveness of partial weightbearing after hip surgery has been questioned as well as the need of intensive physiotherapy. Material and Methods: 36 patients (average age 54.4, 19 women) operated with uncemented hip arthroplasty were randomized either to unrestricted weightbearing (UWB) combined with intensive physiotherapy or to partial weightbearing (PWB) for 3 months combined with a short self-training program. The load during walking and the muscle strength (MS) in abduction was measured preoperative and subsequent up to 12 months. Results: The average peak load on the operated leg at one week was 39.0 kg for the UWB and 25.8 for the PWB group (P = 0.009) while at three months 70.0 and 31.7 (P = 0.001) respectively. At 6 and 12 months there were no differences between the groups. The muscle strength increased in both groups up to six months but there were no differences between the groups. Conclusions: Even though patients applied more load than the recommended 15 kg most patients were able to comply with partial weightbearing fairly well. The effect of intensive physiotherapy on the muscle strength after hip arthroplasty is questionable.

Abstract
Radiostereometric analysis (RSA) was originally developed as a method for performing highly accurate three-dimensional measurements in vivo over time from sequential radiographs. Since its introduction over twenty years ago, the RSA method has proven itself as a powerful tool with numerous orthopaedic applications. RSA has been used extensively in studies of prosthetic fixation and has been shown to be the method of choice for these studies. RSA has, however, also been successfully applied to a limited number of studies examining fracture healing, namely in fractures of the radius, ankle, tibial plateau, trochanter and femoral neck, as well as studies of bone healing following spinal fusion and tibial osteotomies. RSA follow-up of a fracture will provide definitive demonstration of the exact time of union, i.e. the achievement of fracture stability. This information can be invaluable in randomized clinical trials of fracture treatment. Phantom model studies have proven useful for effective preoperative planning and interpretation of RSA results. The RSA method is a highly accurate, precise and safe objective method for studying fracture healing in clinical trials. The RSA method may serve as a scientific tool to accurately evaluate the significance of supporting novel biomaterials for the early stability and the rate of healing in fractures.

Abstract
New regenerative materials and approaches need to be assessed through reliable and comparable methods for rapid translation to the clinic. There is a considerable need for proven in vitro assays that are able to reduce the burden on animal testing, by allowing assessment of biomaterial utility predictive of the results currently obtained through in vivo studies. The purpose of this multicentre review was to investigate the correlation between existing in vitro results with in vivo outcomes observed for a range of biomaterials. Members from the European consortium BioDesign, comprising 8 universities in a European multicentre study, provided data from 36 in vivo studies and 47 in vitro assays testing 93 different biomaterials. The outcomes of the in vitro and in vivo experiments were scored according to commonly recognised measures of success relevant to each experiment. The correlation of in vitro with in vivo scores for each assay alone and in combination was assessed. A surprisingly poor correlation between in vitro and in vivo assessments of biomaterials was revealed indicating a clear need for further development of relevant in vitro assays. There was no significant overall correlation between in vitro and in vivo outcome. The mean in vitro scores revealed a trend of covariance to in vivo score with 58 %. The inadequacies of the current in vitro assessments highlighted here further stress the need for the development of novel approaches to in vitro biomaterial testing and validated pre-clinical pipelines.

Abstract
We report on the search for spectral irregularities induced by oscillations between photons and axionlike-particles (ALPs) in the γ-ray spectrum of NGC 1275, the central galaxy of the Perseus cluster. Using 6 years of Fermi Large Area Telescope data, we find no evidence for ALPs and exclude couplings above 5×10^{-12} GeV^{-1} for ALP masses 0.5≲m_{a}≲5 neV at 95% confidence. The limits are competitive with the sensitivity of planned laboratory experiments, and, together with other bounds, strongly constrain the possibility that ALPs can reduce the γ-ray opacity of the Universe.

Abstract
The Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT) Collaboration has recently released a catalog of 360 sources detected above 50 GeV (2FHL). This catalog was obtained using 80 months of data re-processed with Pass 8, the newest event-level analysis, which significantly improves the acceptance and angular resolution of the instrument. Most of the 2FHL sources at high Galactic latitude are blazars. Using detailed Monte Carlo simulations, we measure, for the first time, the source count distribution, dN/dS, of extragalactic γ-ray sources at E>50 GeV and find that it is compatible with a Euclidean distribution down to the lowest measured source flux in the 2FHL (∼8×10^{-12} ph cm^{-2} s^{-1}). We employ a one-point photon fluctuation analysis to constrain the behavior of dN/dS below the source detection threshold. Overall, the source count distribution is constrained over three decades in flux and found compatible with a broken power law with a break flux, S_{b}, in the range [8×10^{-12},1.5×10^{-11}] ph cm^{-2} s^{-1} and power-law indices below and above the break of α_{2}∈[1.60,1.75] and α_{1}=2.49±0.12, respectively. Integration of dN/dS shows that point sources account for at least 86_{-14}^{+16}% of the total extragalactic γ-ray background. The simple form of the derived source count distribution is consistent with a single population (i.e., blazars) dominating the source counts to the minimum flux explored by this analysis. We estimate the density of sources detectable in blind surveys that will be performed in the coming years by the Cherenkov Telescope Array.

Abstract
We have measured the gamma-ray emission spectrum of the Moon using the data collected by the Large Area Telescope onboard the Fermi satellite during its first seven years of operation, in the energy range from 30 MeV up to a few GeV. We have also studied the time evolution of the flux, finding a correlation with the solar activity. We have developed a full Monte Carlo simulation describing the interactions of cosmic rays with the lunar surface. The results of the present analysis can be explained in the framework of this model, where the production of gamma rays is due to the interactions of cosmic-ray proton and helium nuclei with the surface of the Moon. Finally, we have used our simulation to derive the cosmic-ray proton and helium spectra near Earth from the Moon gamma-ray data.

Abstract
The dwarf spheroidal satellite galaxies (dSphs) of the Milky Way are some of the most dark matter (DM) dominated objects known. We report on γ-ray observations of Milky Way dSphs based on six years of Fermi Large Area Telescope data processed with the new Pass8 event-level analysis. None of the dSphs are significantly detected in γ rays, and we present upper limits on the DM annihilation cross section from a combined analysis of 15 dSphs. These constraints are among the strongest and most robust to date and lie below the canonical thermal relic cross section for DM of mass ≲100 GeV annihilating via quark and τ-lepton channels.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To explore potential associations between proinflammatory cytokines in synovial fluid and progression of osteoarthritis (OA) in meniscectomized subjects. DESIGN We studied 132 subjects on average 18 years after meniscectomy, with a second examination 4-10 years later. We measured concentrations of interleukin (IL)-6, -8 and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α by multiplex immunoassay, graded radiographic features of tibiofemoral and patellofemoral OA according to the Osteoarthritis Research Society International (OARSI) atlas, scored patient-reported outcomes using the Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS), and used logistic regression (adjusted for age, gender, body mass index, and time between examinations) for assessment of associations. RESULTS Higher first examination concentrations of IL-6 and TNF-α were associated with increased risk for subsequent osteophyte progression (odds ratios (OR); 95% confidence intervals 1.05; 1.00-1.09 and 1.35; 1.03-1.75). Higher second examination concentrations of TNF-α were associated with having progressed in loss of joint space (OR 1.70; 1.15-2.52) or having worsened in the activity of daily living subscale of KOOS (OR 1.50; 1.07-2.09) in the preceding years. Subjects with increasing concentrations of IL-6 or TNF-α between examinations were five times more likely to have progressed in joint space narrowing between the same examinations, as compared to those with stable or decreasing concentrations (OR 5.17; 1.54-17.32 and 5.01; 1.32-18.92). CONCLUSIONS In subjects with previous meniscectomy, higher or over time increasing synovial fluid levels of IL-6 and TNF-α seems to be associated with increased risk for progression of radiographic OA.

Abstract
PURPOSE Investigate in a cross-sectional study time-dependent changes of synovial fluid type II collagen epitope C2C concentrations after knee injury and correlate to other joint injury biomarkers. METHODS Synovial fluid samples were aspirated between 0 days and 7 years after injury (n = 235). Serum was collected from 71 of the knee injured patients. Synovial fluid from 8 knee-healthy subjects was used as reference. C2C was quantified by immunoassay and structural injury was determined from magnetic resonance images (MRI) of the injured knee acquired 1-38 days after injury (n = 98). Additional joint injury biomarker results were from earlier investigations of the same samples. RESULTS Synovial fluid C2C concentrations were higher in injured knees than in knees of reference subjects from 1 day up to 7 years after injury. C2C concentrations in synovial fluid and serum were correlated (r = 0.403, P < 0.001). In synovial fluid from subjects early after injury (0-33 days), C2C concentrations were correlated with cross-linked C-telopeptide of type II collagen (r = 0.444, P = 0.003), ARGS-aggrecan (r = 0.337, P < 0.001), osteocalcin (r = 0.345, P < 0.001), osteopontin (r = 0.371, P < 0.001) and IL-8 (r = -0.385, P < 0.001), but not with structural joint injury as visualized on MRI. CONCLUSION The increased levels of synovial fluid C2C after injury, together with the associations seen with several other injury-related biomarkers, suggest that an acute knee injury is associated with an immediate and sustained local degradation of type II collagen.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Ethnic minority status and childhood trauma are established risk factors for psychotic disorders. Both are found to be associated with increased level of positive symptoms, in particular auditory hallucinations. Our main aim was to investigate the experience and effect of childhood trauma in patients with psychosis from ethnic minorities, hypothesizing that they would report more childhood trauma than the majority and that this would be associated with more current and lifetime hallucinations. METHOD In this cross-sectional study we included 454 patients with a SCID-I DSM-IV diagnosis of non-affective or affective psychotic disorder. Current hallucinations were measured with the Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (P3; Hallucinatory Behaviour). Lifetime hallucinations were assessed with the SCID-I items: auditory hallucinations, voices commenting and two or more voices conversing. Childhood trauma was assessed with the Childhood Trauma Questionnaire, self-report version. RESULTS Patients from ethnic minority groups (n = 69) reported significantly more childhood trauma, specifically physical abuse/neglect, and sexual abuse. They had significantly more current hallucinatory behaviour and lifetime symptoms of hearing two or more voices conversing. Regression analyses revealed that the presence of childhood trauma mediated the association between ethnic minorities and hallucinations. CONCLUSIONS More childhood trauma in ethnic minorities with psychosis may partially explain findings of more positive symptoms, especially hallucinations, in this group. The association between childhood trauma and these first-rank symptoms may in part explain this group's higher risk of being diagnosed with a schizophrenia-spectrum diagnosis. The findings show the importance of childhood trauma in symptom development in psychosis.

Abstract
Recent accurate measurements of cosmic-ray (CR) species by ATIC-2, CREAM, and PAMELA reveal an unexpected hardening in the proton and He spectra above a few hundred GeV, a gradual softening of the spectra just below a few hundred GeV, and a harder spectrum of He compared to that of protons. These newly discovered features may offer a clue to the origin of high-energy CRs. We use the Fermi Large Area Telescope observations of the γ-ray emission from Earth's limb for an indirect measurement of the local spectrum of CR protons in the energy range ∼90 GeV-6 TeV (derived from a photon energy range 15 GeV-1 TeV). Our analysis shows that single power law and broken power law spectra fit the data equally well and yield a proton spectrum with index 2.68±0.04 and 2.61±0.08 above ∼200 GeV, respectively.

Abstract
Observations of occultations of bright γ-ray sources by the Sun may reveal predicted pair halos around blazars and/or new physics, such as, e.g., hypothetical light dark matter particles-axions. We use Fermi Gamma-Ray Space Telescope (Fermi) data to analyze four occultations of blazar 3C 279 by the Sun on October 8 each year from 2008 to 2011. A combined analysis of the observations of these occultations allows a point-like source at the position of 3C 279 to be detected with significance of ≈3σ, but does not reveal any significant excess over the flux expected from the quiescent Sun. The likelihood ratio test rules out complete transparency of the Sun to the blazar γ-ray emission at a 3σ confidence level.

Abstract
Both temperature and terrestrial organic matter have strong impacts on aquatic food-web dynamics and production. Temperature affects vital rates of all organisms, and terrestrial organic matter can act both as an energy source for lower trophic levels, while simultaneously reducing light availability for autotrophic production. As climate change predictions for the Baltic Sea and elsewhere suggest increases in both terrestrial matter runoff and increases in temperature, we studied the effects on pelagic food-web dynamics and food-web efficiency in a plausible future scenario with respect to these abiotic variables in a large-scale mesocosm experiment. Total basal (phytoplankton plus bacterial) production was slightly reduced when only increasing temperatures, but was otherwise similar across all other treatments. Separate increases in nutrient loads and temperature decreased the ratio of autotrophic:heterotrophic production, but the combined treatment of elevated temperature and terrestrial nutrient loads increased both fish production and food-web efficiency. CDOM: Chl a ratios strongly indicated that terrestrial and not autotrophic carbon was the main energy source in these food webs and our results also showed that zooplankton biomass was positively correlated with increased bacterial production. Concomitantly, biomass of the dominant calanoid copepod Acartia sp. increased as an effect of increased temperature. As the combined effects of increased temperature and terrestrial organic nutrient loads were required to increase zooplankton abundance and fish production, conclusions about effects of climate change on food-web dynamics and fish production must be based on realistic combinations of several abiotic factors. Moreover, our results question established notions on the net inefficiency of heterotrophic carbon transfer to the top of the food web.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS We have previously shown that nutritional guidelines decreased the incidence of pressure ulcers in hip fracture patients. In the present study, we evaluate whether the nutritional biochemical markers S-IGF-1 (Insulin-like Growth Factor 1), S-Transthyretin and S-Albumin are affected by patients' energy intake, and whether the markers are useful as predictors of postoperative complications. MATERIAL AND METHODS Quasi-experimental design, with one intervention and one control group, as well as pre- and post-study measurements. Eighty-eight hip fracture patients were included: 42 in the control group and 46 in the intervention group. The control group received regular nutritional support pre- and postoperatively, while the intervention group received nutritional support that followed new, improved clinical guidelines from admission to five days postoperatively. S-Albumin, S-Transthyretin, C-Reactive Protein (S-CRP) and S-IGF-1 were analysed at admission and five days postoperatively as well as complications like pressure ulcer and infection. RESULTS The intervention group had a significantly higher energy intake; for example, 1636 kcal versus 852 kcal postoperative day 1. S-IGF-1 levels decreased significantly in the control group, while no decrease in the intervention group. S-Albumin and S-Transthyretin decreased and S-CRP increased significantly in both groups, indicating that those markers were not affected short-term by a high-energy intake. There was no correlation between short-term post-operative complications and S-IGF-1, S-Transthyretin or S-Albumin at admission. CONCLUSION The results of our study showed that S-IGF-1 can be used as a short-term nutritional biochemical marker, as it was affected by a five-day high-energy regimen. However, neither S-IGF-1, S-Transthyretin or S-Albumin were useful in predicting postoperative complications within five days postoperatively.

Abstract
Specific growth rates of individually reared juvenile three-spined sticklebacks Gasterosteus aculeatus were investigated under laboratory conditions to parameterize a complete temperature-dependent growth model for this species. To test the applicability of experimentally derived optima in growth response rates to natural conditions, the effects of commercial pellets and natural prey on growth rates were investigated. In addition, to test for seasonal effects on growth, laboratory trials were performed in both spring and winter. Growth took place from 5 to 29° C with a temperature for optimum growth reaching a sharp peak at 21° C. Modelled optimal temperature for maximum growth was estimated to be 21.7° C and lower and upper temperatures for growth were estimated to be 3.6 and 30.7° C, respectively. There were no significant differences in growth rates between fish reared on invertebrates or commercial pellets. Seasonal effects on growth were pronounced, with reduced growth rates in the winter despite similar laboratory conditions. On average, 60% higher growth rates were achieved at the optimum temperature in summer compared to the winter. The strong seasonality in the growth patterns of G. aculeatus indicated here reduces the applicability of the model derived in this study to spring and summer conditions.
