Abstract
PURPOSE Although maternal depression is associated with adverse outcomes in women and children, its relationship with lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) in offspring is less well-characterized. We examined the association between prenatal and postpartum maternal depression and LUTS in primary school-age daughters. DESIGN Observational cohort study. SUBJECTS AND SETTING The sample comprised 7148 mother-daughter dyads from the Avon Longitudinal Study of Parents and Children. METHOD Mothers completed questionnaires about depressive symptoms at 18 and 32 weeks' gestation and 21 months postpartum and their children's LUTS (urinary urgency, nocturia, and daytime and nighttime wetting) at 6, 7, and 9 years of age. Multivariable logistic regression models were used to estimate the association between maternal depression and LUTS in daughters. RESULTS Compared to daughters of mothers without depression, those born to mothers with prenatal and postpartum depression had higher odds of LUTS, including urinary urgency (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] range = 1.99-2.50) and nocturia (aOR range = 1.67-1.97) at 6, 7, and 9 years of age. Additionally, daughters born to mothers with prenatal and postpartum depression had higher odds of daytime wetting (aOR range = 1.81-1.99) and nighttime wetting (aOR range = 1.63-1.95) at 6 and 7 years of age. Less consistent associations were observed for depression limited to the prenatal or postpartum periods only. CONCLUSIONS Exposure to maternal depression in the prenatal and postpartum periods was associated with an increased likelihood of LUTS in daughters. This association may be an important opportunity for childhood LUTS prevention. Prevention strategies should reflect an understanding of potential biological and environmental mechanisms through which maternal depression may influence childhood LUTS.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION AND HYPOTHESIS Lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) are common among adolescent girls. Physical activity (PA) has been implicated as both a risk (high-impact PA) and protective factor (low-impact, moderate to vigorous intensity PA) for LUTS in adult women, but its role in adolescent girls is unclear. This study investigated the prospective association between physical activity and LUTS risk in adolescent girls. METHODS The sample comprised 3,484 female participants in the Avon Longitudinal Study of Parents and Children. Multivariate logistic regression models were used to examine daily minutes of moderate to vigorous PA (MVPA) at ages 11 and 15 years in relation to LUTS at ages 14 and 19 respectively. MVPA was assessed by 7-day accelerometer data. LUTS were assessed by questionnaire. MVPA were analyzed as continuous (minutes/day) and categorical variables (<10th percentile, 10-89th percentile, ≥90th percentile). RESULTS Prevalence of LUTS ranged from 2.0% for bedwetting to 9.5% for nocturia at age 14 and from 2.0% for straining to urinate to 35.5% for interrupted urine flow at age 19. Physical activity was not associated with LUTS at either time-point. CONCLUSIONS Given the prevalence of LUTS in female adolescent populations, although this study did not find an association with accelerometer-measured MVPA, other aspects of PA that may serve as risk or protective factors deserve investigation.

Abstract
Importance Among patients receiving mechanical ventilation, tidal volumes with each breath are often constant or similar. This may lead to ventilator-induced lung injury by altering or depleting surfactant. The role of sigh breaths in reducing ventilator-induced lung injury among trauma patients at risk of poor outcomes is unknown. Objective To determine whether adding sigh breaths improves clinical outcomes. Design, Setting, and Participants A pragmatic, randomized trial of sigh breaths plus usual care conducted from 2016 to 2022 with 28-day follow-up in 15 academic trauma centers in the US. Inclusion criteria were age older than 18 years, mechanical ventilation because of trauma for less than 24 hours, 1 or more of 5 risk factors for developing acute respiratory distress syndrome, expected duration of ventilation longer than 24 hours, and predicted survival longer than 48 hours. Interventions Sigh volumes producing plateau pressures of 35 cm H2O (or 40 cm H2O for inpatients with body mass indexes >35) delivered once every 6 minutes. Usual care was defined as the patient's physician(s) treating the patient as they wished. Main Outcomes and Measures The primary outcome was ventilator-free days. Prespecified secondary outcomes included all-cause 28-day mortality. Results Of 5753 patients screened, 524 were enrolled (mean [SD] age, 43.9 [19.2] years; 394 [75.2%] were male). The median ventilator-free days was 18.4 (IQR, 7.0-25.2) in patients randomized to sighs and 16.1 (IQR, 1.1-24.4) in those receiving usual care alone (P = .08). The unadjusted mean difference in ventilator-free days between groups was 1.9 days (95% CI, 0.1 to 3.6) and the prespecified adjusted mean difference was 1.4 days (95% CI, -0.2 to 3.0). For the prespecified secondary outcome, patients randomized to sighs had 28-day mortality of 11.6% (30/259) vs 17.6% (46/261) in those receiving usual care (P = .05). No differences were observed in nonfatal adverse events comparing patients with sighs (80/259 [30.9%]) vs those without (80/261 [30.7%]). Conclusions and Relevance In a pragmatic, randomized trial among trauma patients receiving mechanical ventilation with risk factors for developing acute respiratory distress syndrome, the addition of sigh breaths did not significantly increase ventilator-free days. Prespecified secondary outcome data suggest that sighs are well-tolerated and may improve clinical outcomes. Trial Registration ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT02582957.

Abstract
Subjecting a physical system to extreme conditions is one of the means often used to obtain a better understanding and deeper insight into its organization and structure. In the case of the atomic nucleus, one such approach is to investigate isotopes that have very different neutron-to-proton (N/Z) ratios than in stable nuclei. Light, neutron-rich isotopes exhibit the most asymmetric N/Z ratios and those lying beyond the limits of binding, which undergo spontaneous neutron emission and exist only as very short-lived resonances (about 10-21 s), provide the most stringent tests of modern nuclear-structure theories. Here we report on the first observation of 28O and 27O through their decay into 24O and four and three neutrons, respectively. The 28O nucleus is of particular interest as, with the Z = 8 and N = 20 magic numbers1,2, it is expected in the standard shell-model picture of nuclear structure to be one of a relatively small number of so-called 'doubly magic' nuclei. Both 27O and 28O were found to exist as narrow, low-lying resonances and their decay energies are compared here to the results of sophisticated theoretical modelling, including a large-scale shell-model calculation and a newly developed statistical approach. In both cases, the underlying nuclear interactions were derived from effective field theories of quantum chromodynamics. Finally, it is shown that the cross-section for the production of 28O from a 29F beam is consistent with it not exhibiting a closed N = 20 shell structure.

Abstract
PURPOSE We examined how antecedent sexual health factors affect lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) in adolescent women. METHODS We analyzed 1,941 adolescent women from the Avon Longitudinal Study of Parents and Children at age 19. At ages 15 and 17, participants reported use of oral contraceptives (OCs), history of sexual intercourse, number of sexual partners, and condom use. At age 19, The Bristol Female Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms questionnaire quantified the frequency over the past month: stress incontinence, any incontinence, urgency, sensation of incomplete emptying, bladder pain, and urinary tract infection. Multivariable regression models examined associations between sexual health behaviors reported at ages 15 and 17 and six LUTS reported at age 19, after controlling for covariates. RESULTS Commonly reported LUTS at age 19 were past-month stress incontinence (26.8%), bladder pain (26.3%), any urine leakage (22.1%), and urinary tract infection (15.4%). OC use by age 17 was associated with urgency (odds ratio [OR] = 1.62, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.19-2.20), incomplete emptying (OR = 1.62, 95% CI = 1.17-2.26), bladder pain (OR = 1.45, 95% CI = 1.15-1.83), and urinary tract infections (OR = 1.68, 95% CI = 1.28-2.21) at age 19 after adjustment for covariates. However, associations were attenuated after adjustment for condom use and number of sexual partners. Sexual intercourse by age 17 was associated with 1.53-2.65 increased odds of LUTs categories except incontinence, with lower confidence interval boundaries > 1.0. Associations were stronger among women with ≥ 3 sexual partners (vs. 0) by age 17. DISCUSSION We found longitudinally assessed associations between OC use, sexual intercourse, and number of sexual partners during adolescence and LUTS at age 19.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Traditional models to predict intensive care outcomes do not perform well in COVID-19. We undertook a comprehensive study of factors affecting mortality and functional outcome after severe COVID-19. METHODS In this prospective multicentre cohort study, we enrolled laboratory-confirmed, critically ill COVID-19 patients at six ICUs in the Skåne Region, Sweden, between May 11, 2020, and May 10, 2021. Demographics and clinical data were collected. ICU burden was defined as the total number of ICU-treated COVID-19 patients in the region on admission. Surviving patients had a follow-up at 90 days for assessment of functional outcome using the Glasgow Outcome Scale-Extended (GOSE), an ordinal scale (1-8) with GOSE ≥5 representing a favourable outcome. The primary outcome was 90-day mortality; the secondary outcome was functional outcome at 90 days. RESULTS Among 498 included patients, 74% were male with a median age of 66 years and a median body mass index (BMI) of 30 kg/m2 . Invasive mechanical ventilation was employed in 72%. Mortality in the ICU, in-hospital and at 90 days was 30%, 38% and 39%, respectively. Mortality increased markedly at age 60 and older. Increasing ICU burden was independently associated with a two-fold increase in mortality. Higher BMI was not associated with increased mortality. Besides age and ICU burden, smoking status, cortisone use, Pa CO2 >7 kPa, and inflammatory markers on admission were independent factors of 90-day mortality. Lower GOSE at 90 days was associated with a longer stay in the ICU. CONCLUSION In critically ill COVID-19 patients, the 90-day mortality was 39% and increased considerably at age 60 or older. The ICU burden was associated with mortality, whereas a high BMI was not. A longer stay in the ICU was associated with unfavourable functional outcomes at 90 days.

Abstract
Background Long Covid is an emerging chronic illness potentially affecting millions, sometimes preventing the ability to work or participate in normal daily activities. COVID-OUT was an investigator-initiated, multi-site, phase 3, randomized, quadruple-blinded placebo-controlled clinical trial (NCT04510194). The design simultaneously assessed three oral medications (metformin, ivermectin, fluvoxamine) using two by three parallel treatment factorial assignment to efficiently share placebo controls and assessed Long Covid outcomes for 10 months to understand whether early outpatient treatment of SARS-CoV-2 with metformin, ivermectin, or fluvoxamine prevents Long Covid. Methods This was a decentralized, remotely delivered trial in the US of 1,125 adults age 30 to 85 with overweight or obesity, fewer than 7 days of symptoms, and enrolled within three days of a documented SARS-CoV-2 infection. Immediate release metformin titrated over 6 days to 1,500mg per day 14 days total; ivermectin 430mcg/kg/day for 3 days; fluvoxamine, 50mg on day one then 50mg twice daily through 14 days. Medical-provider diagnosis of Long Covid, reported by participant by day 300 after randomization was a pre-specified secondary outcome; the primary outcome of the trial was severe Covid by day 14. Result The median age was 45 years (IQR 37 to 54), 56% female of whom 7% were pregnant. Two percent identified as Native American; 3.7% as Asian; 7.4% as Black/African American; 82.8% as white; and 12.7% as Hispanic/Latino. The median BMI was 29.8 kg/m2 (IQR 27 to 34); 51% had a BMI >30kg/m2. Overall, 8.4% reported having received a diagnosis of Long Covid from a medical provider: 6.3% in the metformin group and 10.6% in the metformin control; 8.0% in the ivermectin group and 8.1% in the ivermectin control; and 10.1% in the fluvoxamine group and 7.5% in the fluvoxamine control. The Hazard Ratio (HR) for Long Covid in the metformin group versus control was 0.58 (95% CI 0.38 to 0.88); 0.99 (95% CI 0.592 to 1.643) in the ivermectin group; and 1.36 in the fluvoxamine group (95% CI 0.785 to 2.385). Conclusions There was a 42% relative decrease in the incidence of Long Covid in the metformin group compared to its blinded control in a secondary outcome of this randomized phase 3 trial.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) surgery face an elevated long-term risk of ischemic stroke.
Left atrial (LA) mechanics including LA strain are known to predict both stroke and atrial fibrillation in other populations. Evidence is conflicting with regards to the clinical significance of postoperative atrial fibrillation (POAF) and its role in the association between LA mechanics and ischemic stroke is unclear.
Purpose
The aim of the study was to investigate the association between LA reservoir strain and long-term ischemic stroke in patients undergoing CABG surgery and whether the presence of POAF modified this relationship.
Methods
Patients undergoing isolated CABG were included from 2006–2011 as part of a retrospective cohort study. Echocardiography was performed prior to surgery. We included patients with available LA reservoir strain measurements, while patients with known atrial fibrillation and moderate to severe valvular disease were excluded. The primary endpoint was ischemic stroke. The association between LA reservoir strain and ischemic stroke was investigated in uni- and multivariable Cox proportional hazards regression models including adjustment for POAF. Poisson regression was used to create a restricted cubic spline model of the continuous association between LA reservoir strain and risk of ischemic stroke.
Results
We included 542 patients in the analysis. Mean age was 67.3±8.9 years, 89 (16.4%) were female, and median EuroSCORE II was 1.31 (IQR 0.93–1.96). Patients with LA reservoir strain <27.2% (median) were older, more likely to have diabetes, and had a higher EuroSCORE II.
In total, 96 patients (17.7%) developed POAF. During a median follow-up period of 3.7 years (IQR 2.7–4.8 years), 21 (3.9%) patients experienced ischemic stroke. In univariable modeling, LA reservoir strain was significantly associated with ischemic stroke (HR 1.10 (95% CI 1.03–1.18, p=0.003) per 1% absolute decrease). After adjustment for EuroSCORE II, LA volume index (LAVi) and prior stroke, LA reservoir strain remained a significant predictor of ischemic stroke (HR 1.09 (95% CI 1.02–1.17, p=0.011) per 1% absolute decrease and HR 4.24 (95% CI 1.37–13.10, p=0.012) for < vs. >median). Adding POAF as a covariate did not alter the significance of LA reservoir strain in the model. In addition, POAF did not modify the association between LA reservoir strain and POAF (p for interaction = 0.07). The association between LA reservoir strain and ischemic stroke persisted in multiple sensitivity analyses including restricting the analysis to patients with normal left atrial volumes (LAVi <34 ml/m2), patients without POAF, and when excluding patients who developed atrial fibrillation during follow-up.
Conclusion
In patients undergoing CABG, LA reservoir strain was an independent long-term predictor of ischemic stroke. The predictive value of LA reservoir strain was unaffected by the presence of POAF.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) vaccination has decreasing protection from acquiring any infection with emergence of new variants; however, vaccination continues to protect against progression to severe coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). The impact of vaccination status on symptoms over time is less clear. METHODS Within a randomized trial on early outpatient COVID-19 therapy testing metformin, ivermectin, and/or fluvoxamine, participants recorded symptoms daily for 14 days. Participants were given a paper symptom diary allowing them to circle the severity of 14 symptoms as none (0), mild (1), moderate (2), or severe (3). This is a secondary analysis of clinical trial data on symptom severity over time using generalized estimating equations comparing those unvaccinated, SARS-CoV-2 vaccinated with primary vaccine series only, or vaccine-boosted. RESULTS The parent clinical trial prospectively enrolled 1323 participants, of whom 1062 (80%) prospectively recorded some daily symptom data. Of these, 480 (45%) were unvaccinated, 530 (50%) were vaccinated with primary series only, and 52 (5%) vaccine-boosted. Overall symptom severity was least for the vaccine-boosted group and most severe for unvaccinated at baseline and over the 14 days (P < .001). Individual symptoms were least severe in the vaccine-boosted group including cough, chills, fever, nausea, fatigue, myalgia, headache, and diarrhea, as well as smell and taste abnormalities. Results were consistent over Delta and Omicron variant time periods. CONCLUSIONS SARS-CoV-2 vaccine-boosted participants had the least severe symptoms during COVID-19, which abated the quickest over time. Clinical Trial Registration. NCT04510194.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Early treatment to prevent severe coronavirus disease 2019 (Covid-19) is an important component of the comprehensive response to the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) pandemic. METHODS In this phase 3, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial, we used a 2-by-3 factorial design to test the effectiveness of three repurposed drugs - metformin, ivermectin, and fluvoxamine - in preventing serious SARS-CoV-2 infection in nonhospitalized adults who had been enrolled within 3 days after a confirmed diagnosis of infection and less than 7 days after the onset of symptoms. The patients were between the ages of 30 and 85 years, and all had either overweight or obesity. The primary composite end point was hypoxemia (≤93% oxygen saturation on home oximetry), emergency department visit, hospitalization, or death. All analyses used controls who had undergone concurrent randomization and were adjusted for SARS-CoV-2 vaccination and receipt of other trial medications. RESULTS A total of 1431 patients underwent randomization; of these patients, 1323 were included in the primary analysis. The median age of the patients was 46 years; 56% were female (6% of whom were pregnant), and 52% had been vaccinated. The adjusted odds ratio for a primary event was 0.84 (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.66 to 1.09; P = 0.19) with metformin, 1.05 (95% CI, 0.76 to 1.45; P = 0.78) with ivermectin, and 0.94 (95% CI, 0.66 to 1.36; P = 0.75) with fluvoxamine. In prespecified secondary analyses, the adjusted odds ratio for emergency department visit, hospitalization, or death was 0.58 (95% CI, 0.35 to 0.94) with metformin, 1.39 (95% CI, 0.72 to 2.69) with ivermectin, and 1.17 (95% CI, 0.57 to 2.40) with fluvoxamine. The adjusted odds ratio for hospitalization or death was 0.47 (95% CI, 0.20 to 1.11) with metformin, 0.73 (95% CI, 0.19 to 2.77) with ivermectin, and 1.11 (95% CI, 0.33 to 3.76) with fluvoxamine. CONCLUSIONS None of the three medications that were evaluated prevented the occurrence of hypoxemia, an emergency department visit, hospitalization, or death associated with Covid-19.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Recent improvements in speckle tracking echocardiography have made sectionalized quantification of layer-specific global longitudinal strain (GLS) possible. Prior studies have reported prognostic value of GLS in several cardiac diseases, however, the use of layer-specific strain has not been investigated in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG).
Purpose
To determine the prognostic value of layer-specific GLS for predicting all-cause mortality after CABG.
Methods
In this retrospective cohort study, consecutive patients undergoing isolated CABG between 2006 and 2011 were included. The patients were followed through nation-wide registries for the endpoint of all-cause mortality. Multivariable Cox regression models adjusted for clinical and echocardiographic baseline characteristics were used to assess the association between layer-specific GLS and all-cause mortality. Cumulative survival was stratified by clinical age and gender-dependent cut-off values for the layer-specific GLS, which was obtained from a large healthy population study.
Results
Of 641 patients included (mean age 67 years, 84% male), 70 (10.9%) died during follow-up (median 3.8 years [IQR: 2.7; 4.9 years]). Patients who died during follow-up were significantly older (71 years vs. 67 years, P = <0.001) and had a lower LVEF (46% vs. 51% P = <0.001). Endocardial GLS (GLSendo) (−14.2% vs. −16.3%, P<0.001), whole wall GLS (−12.1% vs. −13.9%, P<0.001), and epicardial GLS (GLSepi) (−10.6% vs. −12.2%, P<0.001) were all reduced in patients who died during follow-up, and patients with GLS below cut-off had a more than two-fold increased risk of all-cause mortality (Figure 1). The risk of dying increased linearly with decreasing absolute GLS for all layers (p<0.0002 for all layers), (Figure 2). In multivariable models, all layer-specific strain parameters remained significantly associated with all-cause mortality; GLSepi: HR=1.14 (1.05–1.23), p=0.002; GLS: HR=1.12 (1.04–1.20), p=0.002; GLSendo: HR=1.09 (1.03–1.16), p=0.003, per 1% absolute decrease. However, only GLSepi remained significantly associated with mortality when also adjusting for echocardiographic parameters (GLSepi: HR=1.12 (1.00–1.25), p=0.049, per 1% absolute decrease) and separately also after adjusting for the EuroScore II (GLSepi: HR=1.09 (1.00–1.18), p=0.043, per 1% absolute decrease).
Conclusion
Layer-specific GLS is an independent prognosticator of all-cause mortality after CABG. In multivariable models, GLSepi provided significant prognostic value after adjusting for echocardiographic parameters and EuroScore II.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To examine whether the school toilet environment at age 13, including bullying at toilets, is associated with female lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) at ages 13 and 19, as little is known about the association among school toilet environment, voiding behaviors, and LUTS in adolescent girls. METHODS The sample comprised 3962 female participants from the Avon Longitudinal Study of Parents and Children. At age 13, participants reported on 7 school toilet environment characteristics and a range of LUTS items. At age 19, participants completed the Bristol Female Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms questionnaire. RESULTS All toilet environmental factors were associated with at least 1 LUTS outcome at age 13. Holding behavior was associated with all school toilet environmental factors, with odds ratios ranging from 1.36 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.05, 1.76) for dirty toilets to 2.38 (95% CI: 1.60, 3.52) for feeling bullied at toilets. Bullying was associated with all daytime LUTS symptoms and nocturia; odds ratios ranged from 1.60 (95% CI: 1.04, 2.07) for nocturia to 2.90 (95% CI: 1.77, 4.75) for urgency. Associations between age 13 school toilets and age 19 LUTS were in the same direction as age 13 LUTS. CONCLUSION This is the first examination of associations between school toilets and LUTS. Toileting environments were cross-sectionally associated with LUTS in adolescent girls. While further work is needed to determine whether these associations are causal, school toilet environments are modifiable and thus a promising target for LUTS prevention.

Background
Early systolic lengthening (ESL), a paradoxical stretch of myocardial fibers, has been linked to myocardial viability and contractile dysfunction. We assessed the long-term prognostic potential of ESL in coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) patients.
Methods
We retrospectively included patients (n = 709; mean age 68 years; 85% men) who underwent speckle tracking echocardiography (median 15 days) prior to CABG. Endpoints were cardiovascular death (CVD) and all-cause mortality. We assessed amplitude of ESL (%), defined as peak positive strain, and duration of ESL (ms), determined as time from Q-wave on the ECG to peak positive strain. We applied Cox proportional hazards models adjusted for the clinical risk tool, EuroSCORE II.
Results
During median follow-up of 3.8 years [IQR 2.7 to 4.9 years], 45 (6%) experienced CVD and 80 (11%) died. In survival analyses adjusted for EuroSCORE II, amplitude of ESL was associated with CVD (HR 1.37 [95%CI 1.13 to 1.66], P = 0.001) and all-cause mortality (HR 1.31 [95%CI 1.13 to 1.54], P = 0.001). Similar findings applied to duration of ESL and CVD (HR 1.17 [95%CI 1.08 to 1.26], P < 0.001) and all-cause mortality (HR 1.14 [95%CI 1.07 to 1.21], P < 0.001). The prognostic value of ESL amplitude was modified by sex (P interaction < 0.05), such that it was greater in women for both endpoints (Figure 1A-B). When adding ESL duration to EuroSCORE II, the net reclassification index improved significantly for both CVD and all-cause mortality.
Conclusions
Assessment of ESL provides independent and incremental prognostic information in addition to the EuroSCORE II for CVD and all-cause mortality in CABG patients. The prognostic value was greater in women.

Abstract
Detailed spectroscopy of the neutron-unbound nucleus ^{28}F has been performed for the first time following proton/neutron removal from ^{29}Ne/^{29}F beams at energies around 230 MeV/nucleon. The invariant-mass spectra were reconstructed for both the ^{27}F^{(*)}+n and ^{26}F^{(*)}+2n coincidences and revealed a series of well-defined resonances. A near-threshold state was observed in both reactions and is identified as the ^{28}F ground state, with S_{n}(^{28}F)=-199(6) keV, while analysis of the 2n decay channel allowed a considerably improved S_{n}(^{27}F)=1620(60) keV to be deduced. Comparison with shell-model predictions and eikonal-model reaction calculations have allowed spin-parity assignments to be proposed for some of the lower-lying levels of ^{28}F. Importantly, in the case of the ground state, the reconstructed ^{27}F+n momentum distribution following neutron removal from ^{29}F indicates that it arises mainly from the 1p_{3/2} neutron intruder configuration. This demonstrates that the island of inversion around N=20 includes ^{28}F, and most probably ^{29}F, and suggests that ^{28}O is not doubly magic.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Observational studies suggest that beta-blockers may reduce the risk of exacerbations and death in patients with moderate or severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), but these findings have not been confirmed in randomized trials. METHODS In this prospective, randomized trial, we assigned patients between the ages of 40 and 85 years who had COPD to receive either a beta-blocker (extended-release metoprolol) or placebo. All the patients had a clinical history of COPD, along with moderate airflow limitation and an increased risk of exacerbations, as evidenced by a history of exacerbations during the previous year or the prescribed use of supplemental oxygen. We excluded patients who were already taking a beta-blocker or who had an established indication for the use of such drugs. The primary end point was the time until the first exacerbation of COPD during the treatment period, which ranged from 336 to 350 days, depending on the adjusted dose of metoprolol. RESULTS A total of 532 patients underwent randomization. The mean (±SD) age of the patients was 65.0±7.8 years; the mean forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) was 41.1±16.3% of the predicted value. The trial was stopped early because of futility with respect to the primary end point and safety concerns. There was no significant between-group difference in the median time until the first exacerbation, which was 202 days in the metoprolol group and 222 days in the placebo group (hazard ratio for metoprolol vs. placebo, 1.05; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.84 to 1.32; P = 0.66). Metoprolol was associated with a higher risk of exacerbation leading to hospitalization (hazard ratio, 1.91; 95% CI, 1.29 to 2.83). The frequency of side effects that were possibly related to metoprolol was similar in the two groups, as was the overall rate of nonrespiratory serious adverse events. During the treatment period, there were 11 deaths in the metoprolol group and 5 in the placebo group. CONCLUSIONS Among patients with moderate or severe COPD who did not have an established indication for beta-blocker use, the time until the first COPD exacerbation was similar in the metoprolol group and the placebo group. Hospitalization for exacerbation was more common among the patients treated with metoprolol. (Funded by the Department of Defense; BLOCK COPD ClinicalTrials.gov number, NCT02587351.).

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Myocardial tissue velocities by tissue Doppler imaging (TDI) have proven superior predictors of outcome to left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) in ischemic heart disease, with early diastolic myocardial relaxation velocity (e') being an early sign of LV dysfunction in the ischemic cascade.
Purpose
We hypothesized that e' predicts outcome after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG).
Methods
We included patients treated with isolated CABG (n=679). Before surgery, all patients had an echocardiogram performed with TDI to measure tissue velocities: systolic (s'), e' and late diastolic (a'). Endpoint was all-cause mortality retrieved from national registries. We performed Cox regressions and C-statistics. Net reclassification index was used to test improvement of EuroSCOREII.
Results
Of 679 patients, 79 (n=12%) died during follow-up (median: 3.8 years (IQR: 2.8; 5.0y). Follow-up was 100%. Mean age was 68 years, LVEF 50%, and 86% were male. All tissue velocities were univariable predictors of outcome (s': HR=1.46 [1.21; 1.78], p<0.001; e': HR=1.55 [1.33; 1.81], p<0.001; a': HR=1.19 [1.06; 1.33], p=0.004, per 1cm/s decrease for all). Overall, e' provided the highest C-statistics of all the tissue velocities (c-stat=0.69). In multivariable adjustments, e' remained an independent predictor after adjusting for clinical, biochemical and echocardiographic confounders (HR=1.24 [1.03; 1.49], p=0.022, per 1cm/s decrease). LVEF <40% modified the relationship between e' and outcome, so e' did not predict outcome in these patients (p for interaction = 0.013). However, e' was an independent predictor after multivariable adjustments in patients with LVEF >40% (HR=1.39 [1.11; 1.74], p=0.005, per 1cm/s decrease). When split by the median (−4.95cm/s), patients in the lowest group had a 3-fold increased risk of death (HR=3.31 [1.98; 5.56], p<0.001) compared to patients in the highest group (figure).
The e' improved the net reclassification improvement index when added to EuroSCOREII, with a net reclassification of 39%.
Conclusion
After CABG, e' is a strong predictor of all-cause mortality and improves the predictive value of the established prediction model, the EuroSCOREII. We identified a possible effect modifier in LVEF, such that e' was a strong predictor in patients with LVEF >40% and not when LVEF is below 40%.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Several biomarkers independently predict outcome following ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). We hypothesized that combining information from multiple circulating biomarkers with numerous pathophysiological pathways may improve biomarker risk stratification following a STEMI.
Method
This was a prospective study of 735 patients with STEMI treated with primary percutaneous coronary intervention. Seventeen biomarkers were drawn before revascularization, including adrenalin, noradrenalin, C-reactive protein (CRP), neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL), pro-atrial natriuretic peptide (pro-ANP), alfa-defensin, adiponectin, troponin I, hemoglobin, thrombocyte, and total leukocyte count. The primary outcome was a composite of cardiovascular death or heart failure (CVD/HF) identified by national registries. In the effort to identify the best model, the population was randomly split into two equally sized groups, a derivation cohort and a validation cohort. We used classification and regression tree (CART) analysis to develop a risk model. The identified risk model was hereafter applied to the whole cohort.
Results
Mean age was 63 years, 74% were male and 33% had hypertension. During a median follow-up time of 5.0 years (3.2; 5.0), we observed 185 primary events. After including all biomarkers in the initial model, the CART analysis created a risk model including pro-ANP, NGAL, and CRP (Figure 1a). The risk of CVD/HF increased incrementally with increasing risk group (Figure 1b). The risk remained significantly higher in groups 3 and 4 after multivariable adjustments (hazard ratio (HR)=3.38 [95% confidence interval (CI): 1.60; 7.16] p=0.001 and HR=6.55 [95% CI: 2.73; 15.76] p<0.001, respectively) when compared with group 1.
Figure 1
Conclusion
We developed a risk model based on multiple biomarkers (NGAL, CRP, and pro-ANP) determined from a CART analysis which may ease risk stratification after STEMI.

Abstract
Accumulation of NaCl in soil causes osmotic stress in plants, and sodium (Na+ ) and chloride (Cl- ) cause ion toxicity, but also reduce the potassium (K+ ) uptake by plant roots and stimulate the K+ efflux through the cell membrane. Thus, decreased K+ /Na+ ratio in plant tissue lead us to hypothesise that elevated levels of K+ in nutrient medium enhance this ratio in plant tissue and cytosol to improve enzyme activation, osmoregulation and charge balance. In this study, wheat was cultivated at different concentrations of K+ (2.2, 4.4 or 8.8 mm) with or without salinity (1, 60 or 120 mm NaCl) and the effects on growth, root and shoot Na+ and K+ distribution and grain yield were determined. Also, the cytosolic Na+ concentration was investigated, as well as photosynthesis rate and water potential. Salinity reduced fresh weight of both shoots and roots and dry weight of roots. The grain yield was significantly reduced under Na+ stress and improved with elevated K+ fertilisation. Elevated K+ level during cultivation prevented the accumulation of Na+ into the cytosol of both shoot and root protoplasts. Wheat growth at vegetative stage was transiently reduced at the highest K+ concentration, perhaps due to plants' efforts to overcome a high solute concentration in the plant tissue, nevertheless grain yield was increased at both K+ levels. In conclusion, a moderately elevated K+ application to wheat seedlings reduces tissue as well as cytosolic Na+ concentration and enhances wheat growth and grain yield by mitigating the deleterious effects of Na+ toxicity.

Abstract
Duodenal perforation is a rare, but potentially life-threatening injury. Multiple etiologies are associated with duodenal perforations such as peptic ulcer disease, iatrogenic causes and trauma. Computed tomography with intravenous and oral contrast is the most valuable imaging technique to identify duodenal perforation. In some cases, surgical exploration may be necessary for diagnosis. Specific treatment depends upon the nature of the disease process that caused the perforation, the timing, location and extent of the injury and the clinical condition of the patient. Conservative management seems to be feasible in stable patients with sealed perforations. Immediate surgery is required for patients presenting with peritonitis and/or intra-abdominal sepsis. Minimally invasive techniques are safe and effective alternatives to conventional open surgery in selected patients with duodenal perforations. Here we review the current literature on duodenal perforations and discuss the outcomes of different treatment strategies.

Abstract
The emission of neutron pairs from the neutron-rich N=12 isotones ^{18}C and ^{20}O has been studied by high-energy nucleon knockout from ^{19}N and ^{21}O secondary beams, populating unbound states of the two isotones up to 15 MeV above their two-neutron emission thresholds. The analysis of triple fragment-n-n correlations shows that the decay ^{19}N(-1p)^{18}C^{*}→^{16}C+n+n is clearly dominated by direct pair emission. The two-neutron correlation strength, the largest ever observed, suggests the predominance of a ^{14}C core surrounded by four valence neutrons arranged in strongly correlated pairs. On the other hand, a significant competition of a sequential branch is found in the decay ^{21}O(-1n)^{20}O^{*}→^{18}O+n+n, attributed to its formation through the knockout of a deeply bound neutron that breaks the ^{16}O core and reduces the number of pairs.

Abstract
Quasifree one-proton knockout reactions have been employed in inverse kinematics for a systematic study of the structure of stable and exotic oxygen isotopes at the R^{3}B/LAND setup with incident beam energies in the range of 300-450 MeV/u. The oxygen isotopic chain offers a large variation of separation energies that allows for a quantitative understanding of single-particle strength with changing isospin asymmetry. Quasifree knockout reactions provide a complementary approach to intermediate-energy one-nucleon removal reactions. Inclusive cross sections for quasifree knockout reactions of the type ^{A}O(p,2p)^{A-1}N have been determined and compared to calculations based on the eikonal reaction theory. The reduction factors for the single-particle strength with respect to the independent-particle model were obtained and compared to state-of-the-art ab initio predictions. The results do not show any significant dependence on proton-neutron asymmetry.

Abstract
We report on the second SOFIA experiment, dedicated to the fission yields of 236U*, analog to 235U(n,f). The measurement is based on the inverse kinematics method, using a relativistic, secondary beam of 236U. Both fission fragments are identified in mass and charge in the SOFIA recoil spectrometer. The obtained isotopic yields are compared with existing spectroscopy measurements and the elemental yields are used to discuss the treatment of the even-odd effect with energy in nuclear data libraries.

Abstract
Dermal exposure to low volatile organophosphorus compounds (OPC) may lead to penetration through the skin and uptake in the blood circulation. Skin decontamination of toxic OPCs, such as pesticides and chemical warfare nerve agents, might therefore be crucial for mitigating the systemic toxicity following dermal exposure. Reactive skin decontamination lotion (RSDL) has been shown to reduce toxic effects in animals dermally exposed to the nerve agent VX. In the present study, an in vitro flow-through diffusion cell was utilized to evaluate the efficacy of RSDL for decontamination of VX exposed to human epidermis. In particular, the impact of timing in the initiation of decontamination and agent dilution in water was studied. The impact of the lipophilic properties of VX in the RSDL decontamination was additionally addressed by comparing chemical degradation in RSDL and decontamination efficacy between the VX and the hydrophilic OPC triethyl phosphonoacetate (TEPA). The epidermal membrane was exposed to 20, 75 or 90% OPC diluted in deionized water and the decontamination was initiated 5, 10, 30, 60 or 120min post-exposure. Early decontamination of VX with RSDL, initiated 5-10min after skin exposure, was very effective. Delayed decontamination initiated 30-60min post-exposure was less effective but still the amount of penetrated agent was significantly reduced, while further delayed start of decontamination to 120min resulted in very low efficacy. Comparing RSDL decontamination of VX with that of TEPA showed that the decontamination efficacy at high agent concentrations was higher for VX. The degradation mechanism of VX and TEPA during decontamination was dissected by 31P NMR spectroscopy of the OPCs following reactions with RSDL and its three nucleophile components. The degradation rate was clearly associated with the high pH of the specific solution investigated; i.e. increased pH resulted in a more rapid degradation. In addition, the solubility of the OPC in RSDL also influenced the degradation rate since the degradation of VX was significantly faster when the NMR analysis was performed in the organic solvent acetonitrile compared to water. In conclusion, we have applied the in vitro flow-through diffusion cell for evaluation of skin decontamination procedures of human epidermis exposed to OPCs. It was demonstrated that early decontamination is crucial for efficient mitigation of epidermal penetration of VX and that almost complete removal of the nerve agent from the skin surface is possible. Our data also indicate that the pH of RSDL together with the solubility of OPC in RSDL are of primary importance for the decontamination efficacy.

Abstract
AIM Adiponectin is the most abundant adipokine and may play a key role in the interplay between obesity, inflammation, insulin resistance and the metabolic syndrome (MetS). Thus, this large population-based cohort investigated whether adiponectin at baseline and/or a decrease in adiponectin during follow-up is associated prospectively with the risk of incident MetS. METHODS Using a prospective study design, the development of MetS was examined in 1134 healthy participants from the community. Plasma adiponectin was measured at study entry and again after a median follow-up of 9.4 years (IQR: 9.2-9.7). During follow-up, 187 participants developed MetS, and 439 presented with at least two components of MetS. RESULTS During follow-up, adiponectin decreased in participants who developed MetS, whereas adiponectin was increased in those who did not develop MetS (P<0.001). Those with low adiponectin levels (quartile 1) at baseline had an increased risk of developing MetS (OR: 2.92, 2.08-6.97; P<0.001) compared with those with high levels (quartile 4). After adjusting for confounding variables, low adiponectin levels at baseline remained independently associated with MetS (OR: 2.24, 1.11-4.52; P=0.017). Similarly, participants with a decrease in adiponectin during follow-up also had an increased risk of MetS (OR: 2.96, 2.09-4.18; P<0.001). This association persisted after multivariable adjustments, including for baseline adiponectin (OR: 4.37, 2.77-6.97; P<0.001). Finally, adiponectin levels at follow-up were inversely associated with an increase in the number of components of MetS (P<0.001); geometric mean adiponectin levels were 9.5mg/L (95% CI: 9.0-10.0) for participants with no components vs 7.0mg/L (95% CI: 6.3-7.9) for those with four to five components. CONCLUSIONS/INTERPRETATION Low plasma adiponectin levels at baseline and decreasing adiponectin levels during follow-up are both associated with an increased risk of MetS.

Abstract
The absorbed dose from 99Tcm-DTPA was estimated from 12 investigations in 9 patients who were evaluated for the patency of ventriculo-peritoneal shunts. The distribution of 99Tcm-DTPA in the ventricles, urinary bladder and peritoneal cavity was determined in regions of interest from repeated static gamma camera images. The effective dose equivalent was calculated to be less than 0.10 mSv for an injected activity of 15 MBq.

Abstract
Background Many patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) suffer from poor sleep quality. We hypothesized that poor sleep quality in otherwise stable patients predicted exacerbations in these patients. Methods This is a secondary analysis of the results of a previously published randomized trial of azithromycin in 1,117 patients with moderate to severe COPD who were clinically stable on enrollment. Sleep quality was measured using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index. Other quality of life indices included the Medical Outcome Study 36-item Short Form Health Survey and the St Georges Respiratory Questionnaire. Outcomes included time to first exacerbation and exacerbation rate. Results Sleep quality was “poor” (Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index >5) in 53% of participants but was not related to age or severity of airflow obstruction. Quality of life scores were worse in “poor” sleepers than in “good” sleepers. Major classes of comorbid conditions, including psychiatric, neurologic, and musculoskeletal disease, were more prevalent in the “poor” sleepers. Unadjusted time to first exacerbation was shorter (190 versus 239 days) and exacerbation rate (1.7 versus 1.37 per year) was greater in the poor sleepers, but no differences were observed after adjusting for medications and comorbid conditions associated with poor sleep. Conclusion Poor sleepers had greater exacerbation rates than did good sleepers. This appeared to be due largely to them having more, or more severe, concomitant medical conditions and taking more medications.

Abstract
This study investigated cadmium (Cd) uptake in Elodea canadensis shoots under different photosynthetic conditions, and its effects on internal (cytosolic) and external pH. The plants were grown under photosynthetic (light) or non-photosynthetic (dark or in the presence of a photosynthetic inhibitor) conditions in the presence or absence of CdCl2 (0.5 μm) in a medium with a starting pH of 5.0. The pH-sensitive dye BCECF-AM was used to monitor cytosolic pH changes in the leaves. Cadmium uptake in protoplasts and leaves was detected with a Cd-specific fluorescent dye, Leadmium Green AM, and with atomic absorption spectrophotometry. During cultivation for 3 days without Cd, shoots of E. canadensis increased the pH of the surrounding water, irrespective of the photosynthetic conditions. This medium alkalisation was higher in the presence of CdCl2 . Moreover, the presence of Cd also increased the cation exchange capacity of the shoots. The total Cd uptake by E. canadensis shoots was independent of photosynthetic conditions. Protoplasts from plants exposed to 0.5 μm CdCl2 for 3 days did not exhibit significant change in cytosolic [Cd(2+)] or pH. However, exposure to CdCl2 for 7 days resulted in increased cytosolic [Cd(2+) ] as well as pH. The results suggest that E. canadensis subjected to a low CdCl2 concentration initially sequesters Cd into the apoplasm, but under prolonged exposure, Cd is transported into the cytosol and subsequently alters cytosolic pH. In contrast, addition of 10-50 μm CdCl2 directly to protoplasts resulted in immediate uptake of Cd into the cytosol.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIM We studied all patients admitted to hospital with first onset atrial fibrillation (AF) to determine the probability of spontaneous conversion to sinus rhythm and to identify factors predictive of such a conversion. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed charts of 438 consecutive patients admitted to hospital with first onset AF from 1 January 2006 to 31 December 2009. The patients were divided into two groups, recent onset AF defined as AF < 48 h or longer lasting AF, defined as AF > 48 h. RESULTS Spontaneous conversion occurred in 54% (n = 203; 95% confidence interval: 49-59%). In the group with first onset AF < 48 h, spontaneous conversion occurred in 77%, compared with 36% in the group with first onset AF > 48 h. Logistic regression analysis identified duration of AF as a highly significant predictor of spontaneous conversion to sinus rhythm (odds ratio 5.9; 95% confidence interval: 4.0-8.6, P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Spontaneous conversion occurred in 54%, increasing to 77% when AF had persisted less than 48 h.

Abstract
PROBLEM Suspected, but objectively absent, rhinosinusitis constitutes a major cause of visits to the doctor, high health care costs, and the over-prescription of antibiotics, contributing to the serious problem of resistant bacteria. This situation is largely due to a lack of reliable and widely applicable diagnostic methods. METHOD A novel method for the diagnosis of rhinosinusitis based on non-intrusive diode laser gas spectroscopy is presented. The technique is based on light absorption by free gas (oxygen and water vapour) inside the sinuses, and has the potential to be a complementary diagnostic tool in primary health care. The method was evaluated on 40 patients with suspected sinus problems, referred to the diagnostic radiology clinic for low-dose computed tomography (CT), which was used as the reference technique. MAIN RESULTS The data obtained with the new laser-based method correlated well with the grading of opacification and ventilation using CT. The sensitivity and specificity were estimated to be 93% and 61%, respectively, for the maxillary sinuses, and 94% and 86%, respectively, for the frontal sinuses. Good reproducibility was shown. PRINCIPAL CONCLUSION The laser-based technique presents real-time clinical data that correlate well to CT findings, while being non-intrusive and avoiding the use of ionizing radiation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Unilateral vestibular deafferentation (uVD), as performed in vestibular schwannoma surgery, results in a chronic vestibular deficit, though most of the insufficiency can be compensated by other sensory input. By vestibular training (prehabituation) performed before surgery, motor adaptation processes can be instigated before the actual lesion. The adaptation processes of the altered sensory input could be affected if the vestibular ablation and surgery were separated in time, by pretreating patients who have remaining vestibular function with gentamicin. OBJECTIVE To determine whether presurgical deafferentation would affect postsurgery postural control also in a long-term perspective (6 months). METHOD 41 patients subjected to trans-labyrinthine schwannoma surgery were divided into four groups depending on the vestibular activity before surgery (with no clinical significant remaining function n = 17; with remaining function n = 8), whether signs of central lesions were present (n = 10), and if patients with remaining vestibular activity were treated with gentamicin with the aim to produce uVD before surgery (n = 6). The vibratory posturography recordings before surgery and at the follow-up 6 months after surgery were compared. RESULTS The subjects pretreated with gentamicin had significantly less postural sway at the follow-up, both compared with the preoperative recordings and compared with the other groups. CONCLUSION The results indicate that by both careful sensory training and separating the surgical trauma and the effects of uVD in time, adaptive processes can develop more efficiently to resolve sensory conflicts, resulting in a reduction of symptoms not only directly after surgery but also perhaps up to 6 months afterwards.

Abstract
Childhood skin haemangiomas have been subjected to many different kinds of active treatment. From the beginning of the twentieth century and up to 1960-1970, radiotherapy maintained a dominating place in this treatment, although during the latter part of this period its role was more and more questioned. Starting in 1958, I felt that, based on the scientific literature and on my own observations at Malmö University Hospital, active therapy including radiotherapy should be abandoned since it had turned out to be unnecessary and, furthermore, could be harmful. This viewpoint resulted from an increased knowledge of the natural history of the disease. I then got the possibility to establish a follow-up study cohort at Sahlgrenska University Hospital in Göteborg with the aim of gaining information on early and late radiation effects following childhood radiotherapy. Later, the study cohort was enlarged by pooling with similar cohorts originating from Stockholm and Paris. A summary of the results of the epidemiological studies is also presented here. This historical overview reflects half a century of radiation therapy and radiation protection philosophy. It contains a basic message pointing to the value of proper and reliable collection of medical data and to the importance of local, regional and national registers, to preserve the information.

Abstract
Ventilation of the paranasal sinuses is of great importance in sinus pathophysiology. Therefore, methods of measuring sinus ventilation are important for the evaluation of patients with sinus disease. In the present study, a 133-xenon washout technique was used to evaluate the ventilation of the paranasal sinuses in 34 healthy subjects and in 13 subjects with sinus disease (5 patients with nasal polyposis and 8 patients with chronic sinusitis). For this purpose, a 133-xenon-air mixture was insufflated in each nostril and the washout of the radioactive gas from the paranasal sinuses was monitored with a dynamic single-photon-emission computed tomography camera. The half-time (+/-SD) was found to be 18 +/- 18 minutes for the maxillary sinus, 10 +/- 8 minutes for the frontal sinus, and 18 +/- 23 minutes for the posterior ethmoid and sphenoid sinuses in the healthy subjects. Repeated measurements in 18 of the healthy subjects indicated that the method had acceptable reproducibility according to a Bland-Altman plot. The 133-xenon washout was not influenced by insufflation pressure, nasal patency, or body position. The subjects with sinus disease exhibited half-times of 77 +/- 101 minutes for the maxillary sinus, 91 +/- 124 minutes for the frontal sinus, and 60 +/- 60 minutes for the posterior ethmoid and sphenoid sinuses. For patients with nasal polyposis, the half-time was significantly longer than that in healthy subjects, while patients with chronic sinusitis did not differ from healthy subjects in this respect.

Abstract
Nitric oxide (NO) has witnessed an explosion of interest of scientists all over the world during the last decade. This small gaseous molecule is produced in many systems such as the nervous system, cardiovascular system, the upper and lower airways. In all of these it contributes to a number of (patho)physiological processes. Concerning the airways, NO concentrations in the upper respiratory tract are much higher (i.e. ranging from 200 to 2000 parts per billion (ppb)) than NO levels in the lower respiratory tract (i.e. ranging from 4 to 160 ppb). NO is most frequently measured using a chemiluminescence method, based on a reaction of NO with O3 resulting in the emission of light. In the airways NO exerts many functions in host defense, ciliary activity, inflammation and it is also an aerocrine messenger between the upper and lower airways. Nasal NO concentrations are influenced by age, physical exercise, smoking and certain drugs. Nasal NO is conveniently measured in all ages and can be used for screening of disease or monitoring the effects of treatment. Pathological conditions, as in allergic rhinitis, sinusitis, nasal polyps, cystic fibrosis and primary ciliary dyskinesia, result in altered nasal NO concentrations. The clinical relevance for measurement of nasal NO in different conditions, however, remains to be established.

Abstract
The 133-xenon washout technique is a non-invasive method for the evaluation of ventilation of the paranasal sinuses. The half-time of 133-xenon washout (T(1/2)) is considered to reflect sinus ostial function and sinus ventilation. However, it is not known how morphological and physiological factors affect the washout from the paranasal sinuses. The aim of the present study was to evaluate how sinus volume, ostial diameter and nasal ventilation influence 133-xenon washout in a nose-sinus model. This is important for the interpretation of measurements of 133-xenon washout from paranasal sinuses in healthy subjects and in subjects with sinus disease. The 133-xenon washout was measured with a scintillation camera. The statistical analysis of the results showed that the logarithm (to the base 10) of the half-time of 133-xenon washout is linearly related to the ostial diameter, the sinus volume and the nasal ventilation in the model. In a multiple linear regression model, the most important factor contributing to 133-xenon washout was found to be the ostial diameter, which explained 76% of the variation in log T(1/2). In the same statistical model the sinus volume explained 7.5% and the ventilation 5.3% of the variation in log T(1/2). Calculations of the functional ostial diameter in healthy subjects were made, based on the results of the model study. The mean functional ostial diameter was found to be 3.5 mm (range 0.5-7.5 mm). The results obtained with the present model experiments may be of importance for the correct interpretation of the results of measurements of 133-xenon washout in healthy subjects and patients.

Abstract
Ciliostimulation induced by various transmitters has been suggested to be mediated by the release of nitric oxide (NO). Freshly obtained adenoid tissue explants were pre-treated with the nitric oxide synthase (NOS) inhibitor N(G)-nitro L-arginine (L-NNA), to determine whether the ciliostimulators terbutaline, methacholine, substance P, and endothelin-1 require the release of NO to increase ciliary beat frequency (CBF) in vitro. The L-NNA pre-treatment affected the change in CBF induced by each of the ciliostimulators tested. To determine whether cyclic nucleotides also stimulate CBF by inducing the release of NO, an extra series of experiments were performed with dibutyryl cAMP and dibutyryl cGMP, and L-NNA pre-treatment. In contrast to the experiments with the various ciliostimulators, both dibutyryl cAMP and dibutyryl cGMP exerted ciliostimulatory effects that could not be inhibited by L-NNA. The present findings suggest that NO acts as an intermediate messenger in the ciliated epithelium in response to various transmitters and mediators. On the other hand, pre-treatment with the NOS inhibitor L-NNA did not affect ciliary response to the second messengers cAMP and cGMP, thus suggesting that NO dependent mechanisms do not constitute the sole pathway for the stimulation of ciliary function.

Abstract
A pair of isogenic, nontypeable Haemophilus influenzae strains, one expressing protein D and the other protein D-negative, was compared in their ability to cause damage in a human nasopharyngeal tissue culture model. Damage was assessed by measuring the ciliary beat frequency (CBF) of tissue specimens at 12 h intervals. Cultures inoculated with H. influenzae manifested a decrease in CBF beginning after 12 h, with a maximum decrease after 36 h. The impairment of ciliary function by the protein D-expressing strain was significantly greater than that caused by the protein D-negative mutant (P<.01). Tissue specimens examined by scanning and transmission electron microscopy after 24 h appeared normal. After 48 h of incubation, the protein D-expressing strain caused a significant loss of cilia. These findings suggest that protein D is involved in the pathogenesis of upper respiratory tract infections due to nontypeable H. influenzae, probably by enhancing functional and morphological damage to cilia.

Abstract
We describe a new principle for artificial sensibility of the hand based on sense substitution, using hearing as substitution for loss of sensation. The experiments were performed on 3 patients who had recently undergone isolated median nerve repair, 1 patient with replantation of an amputated forearm, 1 patient using a myoelectric prosthesis, and 4 patients using cosmetic prostheses. Small condenser microphones were mounted dorsally on the distal phalanges of multiple fingers of the nonsensate hands or prostheses. The friction sound, reflecting the vibrotactile stimuli generated by the moving touch of the objects, was picked up by the microphones and processed in a stereo amplifier that separated signals from individual fingers into different channels. The signals were transmitted to earphones, making possible a spatial resolution that enabled identification of each finger by the generated acoustic stimuli. Since the friction sound is characteristic of specific surfaces and textures, the corresponding acoustic stimuli made possible identification of different textures, such as glass, metal, wood, and paper, without using vision. We conclude that sense substitution using specifically processed acoustic stimuli as a substitute for sensation may represent a useful principle for generation of artificial sensibility in prostheses or hands lacking sensibility due to lesions in the peripheral or central nervous system or because of neurologic disease.
