Abstract
BACKGROUND Community engagement and involvement (CEI) was crucial for the COVID-19 pandemic response, particularly among the urban poor in low-and middle-income countries (LMICs). However, no evidence synthesis explores how CEI can benefit public health emergencies. OBJECTIVE We conducted a systematic scoping review of the CEI with an emphasis on stakeholder identification, accountability mapping, the support system, and the engagement process among urban poor populations in LMICs during the COVID-19 pandemic. METHODS We searched eleven databases, including PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and CINAHL, following the PRISMA-2020 guidelines to find articles published between November 2019 and August 2021. PROSPERO registration No: CRD42021283599. We performed the quality assessment using a mixed-method appraisal tool. We synthesized the findings using thematic framework analysis. RESULTS We identified 6490 records. After the title and abstract screening, 133 studies were selected for full-text review, and finally, we included 30 articles. Many stakeholders were involved in COVID-19 support, particularly for health care, livelihoods, and WASH infrastructure, and their accountability mapping by adopting an interest - influence matrix. This review emphasizes the significance of meaningful CEI in designing and implementing public health efforts for pandemic management among urban slum populations. The interest - influence matrix findings revealed that specific community volunteers, community-based organizations, and civil society organizations had high interest but less influence, indicating that it is necessary to recognize and engage them. CONCLUSION Motivation is crucial for those with high influence but less interest, such as corporate responsibility/conscience and private food supply agencies, for the health system's preparedness plan among urban populations.

Abstract
Mammary-derived growth inhibitor (MDGI), a member of the lipophilic family of fatty acid-binding proteins, plays an important role in the development, regulation, and differentiation of the mammary gland. The aim of the study was to identify polymorphism in the MDGI gene and its expression analysis in the mammary gland at various stages of lactation, in Indian buffalo. Nucleotide sequence analysis of MDGI gene in different breeds of riverine and swamp buffaloes revealed a total of 16 polymorphic sites and one Indel. Different transcription factor binding sites were predicted for buffalo MDGI gene promoter sequence, using online tools and in-silico analysis indicating that the SNPs in this region can impact the gene expression regulation. Phylogenetic analysis exhibited the MDGI of buffalo being closer to other ruminants like cattle, yak, sheep, and goats. Further, the expression analysis revealed that buffalo MDGI being highly expressed in well-developed mammary glands of lactating buffalo as compared to involution/non-lactating and before functional development to start the milk production stage in heifers. Stage-specific variation in expression levels signifies the important functional role of the MDGI gene in mammary gland development and milk production in buffalo, an important dairy species in Southeast Asia.

Abstract
We present the first comprehensive tests of the universality of the light leptons in the angular distributions of semileptonic B^{0}-meson decays to charged spin-1 charmed mesons. We measure five angular-asymmetry observables as functions of the decay recoil that are sensitive to lepton-universality-violating contributions. We use events where one neutral B is fully reconstructed in ϒ(4S)→BB[over ¯] decays in data corresponding to 189 fb^{-1} integrated luminosity from electron-positron collisions collected with the Belle II detector. We find no significant deviation from the standard model expectations.

Abstract
We measure the lifetime of the D_{s}^{+} meson using a data sample of 207 fb^{-1} collected by the Belle II experiment running at the SuperKEKB asymmetric-energy e^{+}e^{-} collider. The lifetime is determined by fitting the decay-time distribution of a sample of 116×10^{3} D_{s}^{+}→ϕπ^{+} decays. Our result is τ_{D_{s}^{+}}=(499.5±1.7±0.9) fs, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second is systematic. This result is significantly more precise than previous measurements.

Abstract
We report the first search for a nonstandard-model resonance decaying into τ pairs in e^{+}e^{-}→μ^{+}μ^{-}τ^{+}τ^{-} events in the 3.6-10 GeV/c^{2} mass range. We use a 62.8 fb^{-1} sample of e^{+}e^{-} collisions collected at a center-of-mass energy of 10.58 GeV by the Belle II experiment at the SuperKEKB collider. The analysis probes three different models predicting a spin-1 particle coupling only to the heavier lepton families, a Higgs-like spin-0 particle that couples preferentially to charged leptons (leptophilic scalar), and an axionlike particle, respectively. We observe no evidence for a signal and set exclusion limits at 90% confidence level on the product of cross section and branching fraction into τ pairs, ranging from 0.7 to 24 fb, and on the couplings of these processes. We obtain world-leading constraints on the couplings for the leptophilic scalar model for masses above 6.5 GeV/c^{2} and for the axionlike particle model over the entire mass range.

Abstract
We report a measurement of the CP-violating parameters C and S in B^{0}→K_{S}^{0}π^{0} decays at Belle II using a sample of 387×10^{6} BB[over ¯] events recorded in e^{+}e^{-} collisions at a center-of-mass energy corresponding to the ϒ(4S) resonance. These parameters are determined by fitting the proper decay-time distribution of a sample of 415 signal events. We obtain C=-0.04_{-0.15}^{+0.14}±0.05 and S=0.75_{-0.23}^{+0.20}±0.04, where the first uncertainties are statistical and the second are systematic.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Frontal gait disorder/gait apraxia is a higher-order motor deficit with various causes, characterized by difficulties with gait initiation, such as freezing or ignition failure. We aimed to report a patient who presented with progressive higher-level gait disorder and fall episodes as the initial manifestations of progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP). Patient data were obtained from medical records from the Department of General Medicine, Burdwan Medical College and Hospital (Burdwan, West Bengal, India). CASE REPORT A 58-year-old previously healthy woman presented with a gait disorder and fall episodes. Detailed neurological examination highlighted characteristic facial appearance (wide-eyed staring, furrowing of the forehead with a frowning expression, and fixed expression of the lower face). She was hypokinetic-rigid with symmetrical signs and predominant axial rigidity with retrocolic trunk and neck posture. Gait examination revealed a higher-level gait pattern characterized by an exhibition of profound start hesitation requiring assistance from nearby objects/persons. Once walking was underway, steps became relatively better, but ineffective gait re-emerged when she attempted turning. She had short strides, freezing, broad stance base, disequilibrium, slow leg movement, shuffling, and loss of normal fluidity of trunk and limbs. Postural reflexes were impaired. Brain magnetic resonance imaging revealed atrophy of the midbrain, dilated aqueduct of Sylvius and third ventricle, atrophy of frontal lobes and typical hummingbird sign. Diagnosis of probable PSP was finally made. CONCLUSIONS Several etiologies, including PSP, should be considered in appropriate clinical contexts if gait examination demonstrates a higher-order gait disorder.

Abstract
We present the first measurement of the ratio of branching fractions of inclusive semileptonic B-meson decays, R(X_{e/μ})=B(B→Xeν)/B(B→Xμν), a precision test of electron-muon universality, using data corresponding to 189 fb^{-1} from electron-positron collisions collected with the Belle II detector. In events where the partner B meson is fully reconstructed, we use fits to the lepton momentum spectra above 1.3 GeV/c to obtain R(X_{e/μ})=1.007±0.009(stat)±0.019(syst), which is the most precise lepton-universality test of its kind and agrees with the standard-model expectation.

Abstract
The L_{μ}-L_{τ} extension of the standard model predicts the existence of a lepton-flavor-universality-violating Z^{'} boson that couples only to the heavier lepton families. We search for such a Z^{'} through its invisible decay in the process e^{+}e^{-}→μ^{+}μ^{-}Z^{'}. We use a sample of electron-positron collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 10.58 GeV collected by the Belle II experiment in 2019-2020, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 79.7 fb^{-1}. We find no excess over the expected standard-model background. We set 90%-confidence-level upper limits on the cross section for this process as well as on the coupling of the model, which ranges from 3×10^{-3} at low Z^{'} masses to 1 at Z^{'} masses of 8 GeV/c^{2}.

Abstract
The COVID-19 pandemic has varying effects on men, women, and the transgender population. However, there is a paucity of systematic evidence on how gender and other social determinants of health during COVID-19 are affected in resource constraint urban settings. This review describes the gender dimensions of health-related challenges among the urban poor during COVID-19 in LMICs. We searched 11 scholarly online repositories including PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, CINAHL using the domain "slums," "COVID-19", "LMICs" and "gender identities." We used thematic framework analysis to synthesize qualitative data, and meta-analysis to determine the pooled prevalence. We registered in PROSPERO (CRD42020203783). We identified 6490 records, and 37 articles included. The studies reported stress among 74% women and 78% men, depression among 59% women and 62% men, and anxiety among 79% women and 63% men. Men had more stress than women during COVID-19; men are primarily responsible for household sustenance. Women had more anxiety than men, possibly because they are often the primary caregivers for children and the older population. While the severity varies according to gender identity, their vulnerability mostly related to their literacy and economy, highlighting the significance of including all social determinants in future primary studies.

Abstract
We search for lepton-flavor-violating τ^{-}→e^{-}α and τ^{-}→μ^{-}α decays, where α is an invisible spin-0 boson. The search uses electron-positron collisions at 10.58 GeV center-of-mass energy with an integrated luminosity of 62.8 fb^{-1}, produced by the SuperKEKB collider and collected with the Belle II detector. We search for an excess in the lepton-energy spectrum of the known τ^{-}→e^{-}ν[over ¯]_{e}ν_{τ} and τ^{-}→μ^{-}ν[over ¯]_{μ}ν_{τ} decays. We report 95% confidence-level upper limits on the branching-fraction ratio B(τ^{-}→e^{-}α)/B(τ^{-}→e^{-}ν[over ¯]_{e}ν_{τ}) in the range (1.1-9.7)×10^{-3} and on B(τ^{-}→μ^{-}α)/B(τ^{-}→μ^{-}ν[over ¯]_{μ}ν_{τ}) in the range (0.7-12.2)×10^{-3} for α masses between 0 and 1.6 GeV/c^{2}. These results provide the most stringent bounds on invisible boson production from τ decays.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Aortitis is an important form of vasculitis with significant risk of complications. Very few studies have provided detailed clinical phenotyping across the whole disease spectrum. Our primary aim was to look the clinical features, management strategies and complications associated with non-infectious aortitis. METHODS A retrospective review was performed on patients with diagnosis of noninfectious aortitis at the Oxford University hospitals NHS Foundation Trust. Clinicopathologic features were recorded including demographics, presentation, aetiology, laboratory, imaging findings, histopathology, complications, treatment, and outcome. RESULTS We report the data on 120 patients (59% females). Systemic inflammatory response syndrome constituted the most common presentation (47.5%). 10.8% were diagnosed following a vascular complication (dissection or aneurysm). All patients (n = 120) had raised inflammatory markers (median ESR 70.0 mm/h and CRP 68.0 mg/L). Isolated aortitis subgroup (15%) had significantly higher likelihood of presenting with vascular complications and challenging to diagnose due to non-specific symptoms. Prednisolone (91.5%) and methotrexate (89.8%) were the most used treatment. 48.3% developed vascular complications during the disease course including ischaemic complications (25%), aortic dilatation and aneurysms (29.2%) and dissection (4.2%). Risk of dissection was higher in the isolated aortitis subgroup at 16.6% compared to all other types of aortitis at 1.96%. CONCLUSION Risk of vascular complications is high in non-infectious aortitis patients during disease course, hence early diagnosis and appropriate management is key. DMARDs such as Methotrexate appear to be effective, nonetheless there remain gaps in evidence for longer-term management of relapsing disease. Dissection risk seems much higher for patients with isolated aortitis.

Abstract
Introduction Informal caregivers of children and adolescents with intellectual disabilities and attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) face numerous challenges. However, no study has yet compared the HRQoL of the caregivers of children and adolescents with these two conditions. We aimed to compare the HRQoL and perceived stress of caregivers of children and adolescents with intellectual disabilities and ADHD. Methods The HRQoL and perceived stress of informal caregivers of children and adolescents with intellectual disabilities and ADHD (40 in each group) were compared using the perceived stress scale and the Quality of Life Enjoyment and Satisfaction Questionnaire - Short Form, respectively. Results HRQoL was significantly worse in most dimensions in caregivers of children and adolescents with severe ADHD than in caregivers of children and adolescents with severe intellectual disabilities. However, perceived stress was similar. Conclusion Differences in the impact of intellectual disability and ADHD on family members' HRQoL should be considered while developing educational programs for patients and their families.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Inequalities in access to and utilization of maternal and child health (MCH) care are hampering progress on the path to achieving the Sustainable Development Goals. In a number of Low- and Middle-Income Countries (LMICs) population subgroups at disproportionate risk of being left behind are the urban poor. Within this neglected group is the further neglected group of the homeless. Concomitantly, a number of interventions from the antenatal period onward have been piloted, tested, and scaled in these contexts. We carried out an overview of systematic reviews (SRs) to characterize the evidence around maternal and child health interventions relevant to urban poor homeless populations in LMICs. METHODS We searched Medline, Cochrane Library, Health Systems Evidence and EBSCOhost databases for SRs published between January 2009 and 2020 (with an updated search through November 2021). Our population of interest was women or children from urban poor settings in LMICs; interventions and outcomes corresponded with the World Health Organization's (WHO) guidance document. Each SR was assessed by two reviewers using established standard critical appraisal checklists. The overview was registered in PROSPERO (ID: CRD42021229107). RESULTS In a sample of 33 high quality SRs, we found no direct relevant evidence for pregnant and lactating homeless women (and children) in the reviewed literature. There was a lack of emphasis on evidence related to family planning, safe abortion care, and postpartum care of mothers. There was mixed quality evidence that the range of nutritional interventions had little, unclear or no effect on several child mortality and development outcomes. Interventions related to water, sanitation, and hygiene, ensuring acceptability of community health services and health promotion type programs could be regarded as beneficial, although location seemed to matter. Importantly, the risk of bias reporting in different reviews did not match, suggesting that greater attention to rigour in their conduct is needed. CONCLUSION The generalizability of existing systematic reviews to our population of interest was poor. There is a clear need for rigorous primary research on MCH interventions among urban poor, and particularly homeless populations in LMICs, as it is as yet unclear whether the same, augmented, or altogether different interventions would be required.

Abstract
We study the processes e^{+}e^{-}→ωχ_{bJ}(1P) (J=0, 1, or 2) using samples at center-of-mass energies sqrt[s]=10.701, 10.745, and 10.805 GeV, corresponding to 1.6, 9.8, and 4.7 fb^{-1} of integrated luminosity, respectively. These data were collected with the Belle II detector during special operations of the SuperKEKB collider above the ϒ(4S) resonance. We report the first observation of ωχ_{bJ}(1P) signals at sqrt[s]=10.745 GeV. By combining Belle II data with Belle results at sqrt[s]=10.867 GeV, we find energy dependencies of the Born cross sections for e^{+}e^{-}→ωχ_{b1,b2}(1P) to be consistent with the shape of the ϒ(10753) state. These data indicate that the internal structures of the ϒ(10753) and ϒ(10860) states may differ. Including data at sqrt[s]=10.653 GeV, we also search for the bottomonium equivalent of the X(3872) state decaying into ωϒ(1S). No significant signal is observed for masses between 10.45 and 10.65 GeV/c^{2}.

Abstract
The dark photon A^{'} and the dark Higgs boson h^{'} are hypothetical particles predicted in many dark sector models. We search for the simultaneous production of A^{'} and h^{'} in the dark Higgsstrahlung process e^{+}e^{-}→A^{'}h^{'} with A^{'}→μ^{+}μ^{-} and h^{'} invisible in electron-positron collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 10.58 GeV in data collected by the Belle II experiment in 2019. With an integrated luminosity of 8.34 fb^{-1}, we observe no evidence for signal. We obtain exclusion limits at 90% Bayesian credibility in the range of 1.7-5.0 fb on the cross section and in the range of 1.7×10^{-8}-200×10^{-8} on the effective coupling ϵ^{2}×α_{D} for the A^{'} mass in the range of 4.0 GeV/c^{2}<M_{A^{'}}<9.7 GeV/c^{2} and for the h^{'} mass M_{h^{'}}<M_{A^{'}}, where ϵ is the mixing strength between the standard model and the dark photon and α_{D} is the coupling of the dark photon to the dark Higgs boson. Our limits are the first in this mass range.

Abstract
AIMS Uterine serous carcinoma (USC) is an aggressive subtype of endometrial cancer with high rates of relapse and death. As adjuvant therapy might be beneficial in early-stage disease, the impact of standard complete surgical staging is questioned. Therefore, we wanted to explore the optimal treatment strategy for women diagnosed with USC. MATERIALS AND METHODS A retrospective multicentre study of women diagnosed with primary USC in the UK and the Netherlands. Treatment strategy in relation to overall survival and progression-free survival was recorded and evaluated with Kaplan-Meier and Cox regression analysis. Furthermore, primary surgical staging and/or adjuvant treatment in relation to patterns of recurrence were evaluated. RESULTS In total, 272 women with a median age of 70 years were included. Most patients presented with International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) stage I disease (44%). Overall, 48% of patients developed recurrent disease, most (58%) with a distant component. Women treated with chemotherapy showed significantly better overall survival (hazard ratio 0.50, 95% confidence interval 0.31-0.81; P = 0.005) and progression-free survival (hazard ratio 0.48, 95% confidence interval 0.28-0.80; P = 0.04) in multivariable analysis. Furthermore, even in surgically staged women with FIGO stage IA disease, a high recurrence rate of 42% was seen. CONCLUSION Women with USC who received adjuvant chemotherapy showed better survival rates compared with those who received other or no adjuvant treatment. The benefit of adjuvant chemotherapy was observed across all tumour stages, including surgically staged FIGO stage IA. These data question the role of surgical staging in the absence of macroscopic disease in USC.

Abstract
Eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (EGPA) is a rare, multi-system, inflammatory disease, belonging to the group of anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-associated vasculitides (AAV). Previously known as Churg-Strauss syndrome, EGPA is characterised by late-onset asthma, eosinophilia and vasculitis affecting small-to-medium vessels. This disease behaves differently in many aspects to the other AAV and is often excluded from AAV studies. The disease is poorly understood and, due to it rarity and unique manifestations, there has been limited research progress to optimise our understanding of its complex pathogenesis and ability to develop management options - although the success of interleukin-5 inhibitors such as Mepolizumab has been a welcome development. The pathophysiology also appears to be different to other forms of AAV and hence management strategies that work for AAV may not fully apply to this condition. There is no current standard therapy for EGPA although corticosteroids are almost universally used for treatment alongside other agents and encouraging modes of treatment continue to evolve beyond glucocorticoid immunosuppression (including interleukin-5 inhibition). There is therefore a significant ongoing unmet need for efficacious steroid-sparing immunosuppressing agents. The prognosis also diverges from other forms of AAV, and we discuss the pathophysiology, clinical features and diagnosis, management and prognosis in this article.

Abstract
In recent times, the metal induced crystallization (MIC) process in amorphous semiconductors (a-Si and a-Ge) has been extensively investigated by many researchers due to potential applications of crystalline semiconductors in high-density data storage devices, flat panel displays, and high performance solar cells. In this context, we have presented a review on different schemes of MIC in metal/a-Si and metal/a-Ge bilayer films (with stacking change) on various substrates under different annealing conditions. The parameters, which limit crystallization of a-Si and a-Ge have been analyzed and discussed extensively keeping in mind their applications in solar cells and flat panel displays. The MIC of a-Si and a-Ge films under ion beam irradiation has also been discussed in detail. At the end, some suggestions to overcome the limitations of the MIC process in producing better crystalline semiconductors have been proposed. We believe that this review article will inspire readers to perform a thorough investigation on various aspects of MIC for further development of high efficiency solar cells and high quality flat panel displays.

Abstract
Introduction To assess the incidence and causes of persistent thigh pain and peri-implant fractures after union in patients of intertrochanteric fractures treated with short cephalo-medullary nails. Materials and methods A retrospective observational study conducted at a Level 1 Trauma centre. A total of 122 patients of intertrochanteric fractures who were operated using short cephalo-medullary nails (170mm and 200mm lengths) between January 2018 to June 2019 were included in the study. Main outcomes measured were the incidence of thigh pain and peri-implant fractures. Results Out of the 122 patients with a mean follow-up of 14.1 month, 12 patients had persistent thigh pain. Six patients had the helical blade protruding from the lateral cortex, two of them had distal tip of nail abutting on the anterior cortex and four cases had prominent proximal segment of nail which may explain the cause of their pain. Five of these patients had a combination of these findings. Two patients had pain for which no other obvious cause was found. There were no cases of peri-implant fractures in our study. Conclusion Thigh pain associated with the use of short cephalon-medullary nails is often unrelated to nail length and can be prevented by using proper surgical technique. There seems to be no association between the use of short nails and peri-implant fractures.

Abstract
The abysmal health of the urban poor or slum dwellers was attributed to structural inequities such as inadequate housing, water, and sanitation. This review aimed to assess housing-related opportunities and challenges during the COVID-19 pandemic among urban poor in low-and middle-income countries. For study identification, a comprehensive search was performed in 11 databases that yielded 22 potential studies. The inadequate housing infrastructure makes the lives of the urban poor more precarious during COVID-19. Typically, the houses lacked lighting, ventilation, and overcrowding. This review reflected that it is crucial to reimagine housing policy for the urban poor with an emphasis on pandemic/epidemic guidelines.

Abstract
Inadequate water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) among urban poor women is a major urban policy concern in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). There was a paucity of systematic information on WASH among the urban poor during the pandemic. We reviewed the opportunities and challenges faced by the urban poor in LMICs during the COVID-19 pandemic. We used the PRISMA guidelines to conduct a comprehensive search of 11 databases, including MEDLINE, Embase, Web of Science, and CINAHL, between November 2019 and August 2021. We used thematic analysis to synthesize the qualitative data and meta-analyses to estimate the pooled prevalence. We screened 5008 records, conducted a full-text review of 153 studies, and included 38 studies. The pooled prevalence of shared water points was 0.71 (95% CI 0.37-0.97), non-adherence to hygiene practices was 0.15 (95% CI 0.08-0.24), non-adherence to face masks was 0.27 (95% CI 0.0-0.81), and access to shared community toilets was 0.59 (95% CI 0.11-1.00). Insufficient facilities caused crowding and long waiting times at shared facilities, making physical distancing challenging. Women reported difficulty in maintaining privacy for sanitation, as men were present due to the stay-at-home rule. Due to unaffordability, women reported using cloth instead of sanitary pads and scarves instead of masks.

Abstract
Background Ensuring quality, safety and efficacy of all pharmaceuticals is the responsibility of drug regulators. However, healthcare workers should be aware of the legal/regulatory provisions involved. This study was planned to assess and compare the knowledge of various drugs schedules under the Drugs and Cosmetics Act, 1940 amongst medical students, post graduate residents and pharmacists. Methods A questionnaire was designed based on review of literature and was validated. After obtaining ethical clearance and consent from participants, questionnaire was administered to students undergoing internship/6 th semester/4 th semester, post graduate residents and pharmacy students. Participants' knowledge was assessed based on the percentage of correct responses and the intergroup comparison was done by applying ANOVA test. Results Overall, nearly half of the participants had poor knowledge about schedule H1. Sixth semester MBBS students had maximum knowledge followed by interns whereas pharmacy students, 4 th semester MBBS students and PG residents had poor knowledge about drug schedules. Conclusion The study clearly highlights the need for further knowledge dissemination about drug schedules. We recommend that a capsule course be developed especially for post graduate residents and final year pharmacy students.

Abstract
BackgroundPneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia (PJP) is an uncommon but frequently fatal fungal infection, which can affect patients with rheumatic diseases treated with immunosuppressants or high doses of steroids. There are no clear guidelines on when to prescribe primary prophylaxis and available agreements differ depending on the disease or immunosuppressant.ObjectivesTo raise awareness about this preventable infection and to highlight the urgent need to create a tailored probability scoring, before starting any immunosuppression so that the risk benefit of prophylaxis can be objectively assessed.MethodsThis is a retrospective case series of six patients who developed definite or probable PJP known to the Rheumatology Department at Oxford University Hospitals NHS FT since the beginning of 2021. These patients were identified through the microbiology and infectious disease teams, and notes were reviewed to collate data regarding the clinical characteristics. Of these, five were being treated for large vessels vasculitis (LVV) whilst the other one had seropositive rheumatoid arthritis (RA). The diagnosis of PJP was made on clinical picture, laboratory results, bronchoscopy and CT findings.ResultsIn this series, the median age was 78 years (range 55-93) with equal gender distribution. In three LVV patients, the diagnosis was confirmed on ultrasound, one had a positive PET-CT whilst the other case had a high probability clinical diagnosis. Comorbidities included chronic kidney disease and hypertension in three patients, diabetes, or previous underlying malignancy in other two. Smoking history was present in four patients, while five patients had lymphopenia with counts <1x10^9/L. Four of the six cases were on combined therapy with disease modifying anti-rheumatic therapy drugs (DMARDs) and prednisolone, only one was exclusively on prednisolone and the patient with RA was on Methotrexate and Humira.The chronology of the infection was variable, still most of the patients developed PJP infection during the first three months of starting either a biologic or corticosteroids. The median steroids dose by the time of PJP infection was 30 mg and unfortunately three of the patients died. None of the patients who developed PJP had been given antibiotic prophylaxis prior to infection.Some proposed scoring systems for serious infection risk in patients with AIIRD exist, however they focused on RA or biologics use rather than patients with vasculitis or connective tissue disorders who might be on high dose corticosteroids. Additionally, PJP prophylaxis is not recommended in any of the current guidelines for LVV management (BSR, EULAR, ACR). Cochrane review suggests reduction of risk by 85% in patients given prophylaxis.ConclusionPneumocystis Jirovecii pneumonia (PJP) prophylaxis is not current practice for patients with large vessel vasculitis. Consideration needs to be given to PJP prophylaxis for patients on high dose steroids for a prolonged period, particularly in the presence of other risk factors. More data will be needed to help establish guidelines on PJP primary prophylaxis.References[1]Park JW, Curtis JR, Moon J, Song YW, et al.

Abstract
BackgroundPatients from ethnic minority backgrounds suffer considerable health inequality, with generally poorer health outcomes relative to the rest of the population.1 Further exploration of these differences is essential if we are to deliver the best care for all, and close the health gap for our patients.ObjectivesWe used the National Early Inflammatory Arthritis Audit (NEIAA) to assess variability in care quality and treatment outcomes across ethnicities for patients diagnosed with early inflammatory arthritis (EIA) in England and Wales.MethodsNEIAA is an observational cohort design. Data were from adult patients newly diagnosed with EIA, and seen by rheumatology in England and Wales between May 2018 and March 2020. Quality of care outcomes were assessed against six metrics contained within the National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) Quality Standard for Rheumatoid Arthritis.2 Clinical outcomes were measured using DAS28. Outcomes were compared between ethnic groups (White, Black, Asian, Mixed, Other), and adjusted for confounders (age, sex, smoking, comorbidity, seropositivity and disease severity at presentation) using Logistic regression models with multiple imputation for missing data.ResultsData for 35,807 eligible patients were analysed, of whom 30,643 (85.6%) were White and 5,164 (14.6%) were from ethnic minority backgrounds: 1,035 (2.8%) Black; 2,617 (7.3%) Asian; 238 (0.6%) Mixed; 1,274 (3.5%) Other. A total of 12,955 patients had confirmed EIA. Of those, 11,315 were White and 1,640 were from ethnic minority backgrounds: 314 (2.4%) Black; 927 (7.1%) Asian; 70 (0.5%) Mixed; 329 (2.5%) Other.Of 35,160 eligible patients who had data available, 14,803 (42.1%) were assessed by rheumatology within three weeks of referral. Of 9,900 EIA-eligible patients with data available, 5,642 (57.0%) started treatment within six weeks of referral. There were no significant differences in these outcomes by ethnicity. Ethnic minority patients did, however, have lower odds of disease remission at three months, relative to patients of White ethnicity (adjusted odds ratio 0.79; 95% CI: 0.65-0.96; p=0.02). This difference was due to lower odds of disease remission in Black and Asian patients, relative to White patients (Table 1). Ethnic minority patients were significantly less likely to receive initial treatment with methotrexate (0.68; 95% CI: 0.52-0.90; p=0.008) or with glucocorticoids (0.63, 95% CI: 0.49-0.80; p< 0.001).Table 1.Associations between ethnicity and disease remission at three months in EIA patientsModelOdds ratio95% CIP-valueUnadjustedAll ethnic minority0.76(0.62,0.93)0.01backgroundsBlack0.48(0.34,0.67)<0.001Asian0.74(0.59,0.93)0.01Mixed0.61(0.28,1.35)0.22Other1.09(0.71,1.68)0.67Age and sex-adjustedAll ethnic minority0.78(0.63,0.96)0.01backgroundsBlack0.49(0.35,0.69)0.00Asian0.75(0.60,0.94)0.01Mixed0.63(0.28,1.39)0.25Other1.11(0.71,1.71)0.63Fully-adjustedAll ethnic minority0.79(0.65,0.96)0.02backgroundsBlack0.57(0.41,0.79)0.001Asian0.76(0.62,0.93)0.009Mixed0.63(0.27,1.46)0.29Other1.04(0.71,1.54)0.80ConclusionThe results from this large cohort demonstrate that some minority ethnic groups are less likely to reach disease remission in the early months following an EIA diagnosis. Our results are not explained by delays in referral or treatment. Intitial treatment strategies varied across ethnic groups. These data highlight the need for investigation into the possible drivers of these inequitable outcomes and reappraisal of EIA management pathways.References[1]Greenberg JD, Spruill TM, Shan Y, Reed G, Kremer JM, Potter J, et al.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Ensuring accessible and quality health care for women and children is an existing challenge, which is further exacerbated during pandemics. There is a knowledge gap about the effect of pandemics on maternal, newborn, and child well-being. This systematic review was conducted to study maternal and child health (MCH) services utilization during pandemics (Zika, Ebola, and COVID-19) and the effectiveness of various interventions undertaken for ensuring utilization of MCH services. METHODOLOGY A systematic and comprehensive search was conducted in MEDLINE/PubMed, Cochrane CENTRAL, Embase, Epistemonikos, ScienceDirect, and Google Scholar. Of 5643 citations, 60 potential studies were finally included for analysis. The included studies were appraised using JBI Critical appraisal tools. Study selection and data extraction were done independently and in duplicate. Findings are presented narratively based on the RMNCHA framework by World Health Organization (WHO). RESULTS Maternal and child health services such as antenatal care (ANC) visits, institutional deliveries, immunization uptake, were greatly affected during a pandemic situation. Innovative approaches in form of health care services through virtual consultation, patient triaging, developing dedicated COVID maternity centers and maternity schools were implemented in different places for ensuring continuity of MCH care during pandemics. None of the studies reported the effectiveness of these interventions during pandemic-related health emergencies. CONCLUSION The findings suggest that during pandemics, MCH care utilization often gets affected. Many innovative interventions were adopted to ensure MCH services. However, they lack evidence about their effectiveness. It is critically important to implement evidence-based appropriate interventions for better MCH care utilization.

Abstract
Background: Quality management in healthcare is critical for hospitals and everyone in the loop —from physicians to support staff—needs to be aware of and involved in this process. Objectives: To assess the perception of employees about the quality management system (QMS) implemented at a tertiary care eye hospital in north India and to use it to identify scope for further improvement. Methods: This cross-sectional mixed-method study involved both questionnaire-based survey and an in-depth interview by a third party. The questionnaire had 12 questions to assess the changes in culture, infrastructure, environment, system, operation theatre and outpatient department. Employees shared their opinion about improvements brought by the QMS in eight years. Respondents were divided into five groups based on their job description: (i) doctors, (ii) technical staff (nursing/operation theatre/laboratory), (iii) optometrists/opticians/audiologists, (iv) patient care executives and (v) human resources/administration/others. Results: Of the 73 employees interviewed, 94.5% perceived an improved treatment and care process and 91.8% perceived improved treatment results. According to 83.6% of the employees, they were encouraged to report patient safety concerns and 71.2% saw improved incidence and adverse event management. The QMS has increased patient satisfaction according to 83%, while 91.8% felt it improved the profile of the hospital. The employees stated no negative effects of the QMS except a long waiting time of the patients and the duplication of paperwork. Conclusion: QMS has brought many positive changes across the hospital. Still, there is scope to reduce the patient waiting time and paperwork duplication.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aims to assess the feasibility of the Coventry multidisciplinary fast-track cranial giant cell arteritis (FTGCA) pathway, which was set up in 2013 in collaboration with vascular physiology and ophthalmology to enable prompt multidisciplinary assessment, including ultrasound (US). This study also looks at the impact of prior corticosteroid (CS) use on the performance of US in real life. METHOD Data were collected retrospectively for patients who attended the Coventry FTGCA pathway between 1 January 2014 and 31 December 2017. Patients were identified from US lists and clinical details were obtained from electronic medical records. RESULTS In total, 620 eligible patients were included in this study. US had a sensitivity of 50%, which improved to nearly 56% in CS-naïve patients. The median duration of CS use prior to US was 2 days, and sensitivity was around 46% in this group. The specificity of US was > 96%, and CS use was avoided completely in 345 patients (56%). CSs negatively impacted on the utility of US, with US more likely to be false negative. CONCLUSIONS This novel multidisciplinary pathway demonstrates excellent feasibility and minimizes the use of CSs in patients without giant cell arteritis. US was performed promptly, was cost effective- and had reassuring real-life sensitivity and specificity in this cohort, with excellent patient feedback. CS-naïve patients showed higher sensitivity for US despite the short duration of CS use.

Abstract
Equality and empowerment for women are among the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs 5). Although women were confronted with more challenges in various ways during pandemics; however, there is hardly any systematic synthesis of evidence on women's health-related challenges during pandemics. We reviewed the health challenges faced by women during the pandemic. We searched MEDLINE, PsycINFO, and CINAHL following PRISMA guidelines. We identified 2,831 studies, of which we included 17. Reproductive health, psychosocial health, and gender-based violence emerged as significant challenges. Many studies reported challenges in provisions for routine services and increased anxiety, fear, and stress among women. The findings highlighted that pandemic have a significant impact on women's health. Women must have equal rights and opportunities without discrimination, which requires urgent action to enhance women's rights and to achieve SDGs. Women engagement/involvement in pandemic-related services needs to be explored, which will aid in developing strategies to alleviate vulnerabilities.

Abstract
The first measurements of differential branching fractions of inclusive semileptonic B→X_{u}ℓ^{+}ν_{ℓ} decays are performed using the full Belle data set of 711 fb^{-1} of integrated luminosity at the ϒ(4S) resonance and for ℓ=e, μ. With the availability of these measurements, new avenues for future shape-function model-independent determinations of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix element |V_{ub}| can be pursued to gain new insights in the existing tension with respect to exclusive determinations. The differential branching fractions are reported as a function of the lepton energy, the four-momentum-transfer squared, light-cone momenta, the hadronic mass, and the hadronic mass squared. They are obtained by subtracting the backgrounds from semileptonic B→X_{c}ℓ^{+}ν_{ℓ} decays and other processes, and corrected for resolution and acceptance effects.

Abstract
We report a measurement of the D^{0} and D^{+} lifetimes using D^{0}→K^{-}π^{+} and D^{+}→K^{-}π^{+}π^{+} decays reconstructed in e^{+}e^{-}→cc[over ¯] data recorded by the Belle II experiment at the SuperKEKB asymmetric-energy e^{+}e^{-} collider. The data, collected at center-of-mass energies at or near the ϒ(4S) resonance, correspond to an integrated luminosity of 72 fb^{-1}. The results, τ(D^{0})=410.5±1.1(stat)±0.8(syst) fs and τ(D^{+})=1030.4±4.7(stat)±3.1(syst) fs, are the most precise to date and are consistent with previous determinations.

Abstract
A search for the flavor-changing neutral-current decay B^{+}→K^{+}νν[over ¯] is performed at the Belle II experiment at the SuperKEKB asymmetric energy electron-positron collider. The data sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 63 fb^{-1} collected at the ϒ(4S) resonance and a sample of 9 fb^{-1} collected at an energy 60 MeV below the resonance. Because the measurable decay signature involves only a single charged kaon, a novel measurement approach is used that exploits not only the properties of the B^{+}→K^{+}νν[over ¯] decay, but also the inclusive properties of the other B meson in the ϒ(4S)→BB[over ¯] event, to suppress the background from other B meson decays and light-quark pair production. This inclusive tagging approach offers a higher signal efficiency compared to previous searches. No significant signal is observed. An upper limit on the branching fraction of B^{+}→K^{+}νν[over ¯] of 4.1×10^{-5} is set at the 90% confidence level.

Abstract
Background:Aortitis, a rare form of large vessel vasculitis, may occur in the context of a primary systemic vasculitis, as a part of systemic autoimmune disease or in isolation. The evidence and guidelines to diagnose, manage and monitor aortitis remain limited. However, PET CT and vascular MRI scans have facilitated our ability to make the diagnosis more readily. The optimal management strategy and complication rates remain uncertain.Objectives:Our aim was to explore the clinical, laboratory and radiological features of aortitis. We sought to review the management and complications of this illness by collecting detailed information on the outcomes and treatments used, including disease modifying agents (DMARDs) and biologics.Methods:Patients diagnosed with aortitis since 2006 that had been managed in a single tertiary centre were identified using the Rheumatology Assessment Database Innovation in Oxford (RHADIO). Their medical notes were retrospectively reviewed using a local electronic patient record system and the following information was obtained: demographics, underlying risk factors, imaging and laboratory results (including biopsy reports if available), management and outcome.Results:We identified 155 patients who met the inclusion criteria. There was a female preponderance of 57.4% (n=89). At the time of diagnosis, the average age was 69 (range 30-92) and the mean symptomatology length prior to diagnosis was 12 months (range 0-120). The majority of patients (60.4%, n=94) had aortitis secondary to giant cell arteritis (GCA), isolated aortitis was identified in 29.7% (n=46) and IgG4-related disease aortitis was uncommon (2.6%, n=4). Those with cranial GCA-like symptoms were diagnosed on average 3.9 months before those who presented differently (10.1 months versus 14.0 months).Common presentations comprised: systemic inflammatory response syndrome (49.0%, n=76), cranial GCA-like symptoms (26.5%, n=41) and unexplained weight loss (24.5%, n=38). Importantly, 18.7% (n=29) of patients presented with ischaemic symptoms that included angina, TIAs/strokes and claudication. Aortic dissection was the primary presentation for 6.5% (n=10) of patients.At presentation, the mean CRP was 84 mg/L (range 1-249) and the ESR was 72 mm/hr (range 2-164). Most (73.5%, n=114) had diagnostic PET CT changes. For those patients with GCA, diagnostic ultrasound changes were seen in 27.7% (n=26).Nearly all were treated with prednisolone (92.3%, n=143) and all but 8 (5.1%) received a DMARD at some point. Methotrexate was the most commonly used DMARD (93.9%, n=138), followed by leflunomide (22.3%, n=35) and azathioprine (19.1%, n=28). Cyclophosphamide was used in 23.8% of patients (n=38) and 15 patients (9.7%) received tocilizumab.Around a third (34.1% n=53/155) had received at least two DMARDs during their treatment course. On average, patients required 3.46 drugs to manage their aortitis. Those who relapsed (43.2%, n=67) were more likely to have GCA (65.7%, n=44).Vascular sequelae were present in 37.4% (n=58). The most common complications were ischaemic in nature with stroke/TIA and claudication reported in 16.8% (n=26). Aortic aneurysms were recorded in 11.6% (n=18) of cases and 5.1% (n=8) developed dissections despite being on treatment for their aortitis. One patient developed renal infarcts and ischaemic bowel leading to intestinal failure because of florid vasculitis.Conclusion:Aortitis has a varied presentation with systemic inflammatory response syndrome being the most common. Delayed diagnosis remains a problem and especially for those with non-GCA related aortitis, which is likely to contribute to the risk of subsequent vascular complications. Vascular events including dissection are common, many of which could be preventable, emphasising the importance of early diagnosis and good disease control.References:[1]Koster M et al.

Abstract
We present a measurement of R_{K^{*}}, the branching fraction ratio B(B→K^{*}μ^{+}μ^{-})/B(B→K^{*}e^{+}e^{-}), for both charged and neutral B mesons. The ratio for the charged case R_{K^{*+}} is the first measurement ever performed. In addition, we report absolute branching fractions for the individual modes in bins of the squared dilepton invariant mass q^{2}. The analysis is based on a data sample of 711 fb^{-1}, containing 772×10^{6} BB[over ¯] events, recorded at the ϒ(4S) resonance with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy e^{+}e^{-} collider. The obtained results are consistent with standard model expectations.

Abstract
Chirality causes symmetry breaks in a large variety of natural phenomena ranging from particle physics to biochemistry. We investigate one of the simplest conceivable chiral systems, a laser-excited, oriented, effective one-electron Li target. Prepared in a polarized p state with |m|=1 in an optical trap, the atoms are exposed to co- and counterrotating circularly polarized femtosecond laser pulses. For a field frequency near the excitation energy of the oriented initial state, a strong circular dichroism is observed and the photoelectron energies are significantly affected by the helicity-dependent Autler-Townes splitting. Besides its fundamental relevance, this system is suited to create spin-polarized electron pulses with a reversible switch on a femtosecond timescale at an energy resolution of a few meV.

Abstract
Insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) is indicated for growth failure in pediatric patients with primary IGF-1 deficiency and for patients with neutralizing antibodies to growth hormone. IGF-1 was cloned, expressed and purified in-house. Preliminary stability studies prior to the transdermal delivery experiments showed that although stable in contact with stratum corneum, the solution concentration of IGF-1 decreased to 23.63 ± 2.48 and 21.58 ± 2.62% of the initial value upon exposure for 8 h to porcine dermis of 250 and 750 µm thickness. This led to an investigation into how it might be possible to improve the stability of IGF-1 in the presence of porcine/human skin. The stability of IGF-1 in the presence of dermis improved upon heating the skin samples at 60 °C for 2 min suggesting that IGF-1 was subject to enzymatic degradation. Although addition of the protease inhibitor, phenylmethanesulfonyl fluoride (PMSF) alone, did not improve stability, the use of a protease inhibitor cocktail completely blocked proteolytic degradation of IGF-1; the solution concentration after an 8 h exposure to porcine skin was equivalent to the initial level (103.87 ± 9.15%). The results obtained with porcine skin were confirmed with human skin (IGF-1 recovery was 99.31 ± 9.98%). These findings suggest that the inclusion of protease inhibitor cocktails may be useful in limiting the degradation of therapeutic proteins during iontophoresis and transdermal delivery in general - this could be of particular interest for local delivery of peptide/protein therapeutics for dermatological applications.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Peri-operative glucocorticoids are routinely administered to patients undergoing trans-sphenoidal surgery for non-functional pituitary adenomas (NFPA) irrespective of hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis status. PURPOSE Evaluation of HPA axis before and 12 weeks after endoscopic trans-sphenoidal adenomectomy (E-TSA) utilizing low-dose (1 μg) ACTH stimulation test (LDACTH) to determine the need for glucocorticoid administration in patients with NFPA. We also determined the factors that can predict occurrence of hypocortisolism at 12 weeks after surgery. METHODS Sixty-three consecutive patients with NFPA requiring surgical excision were enrolled in this study. Glucocorticoids were administered to patients with demonstrable hypocortisolism [preoperative peak cortisol < 16 μg/dL during LDACTH test, postoperative day 3 (POD-3) 0800 hrs Cortisol < 8 μg/dL or stimulated cortisol (LDACTH) < 16 μg/dL at 12 weeks]. RESULTS Hypocortisolism was present in 43 patients (68.2%) pre-operatively and persisted in 33 patients (52.4%) on POD-3. Thirty-three patients (52.4%) had hypocortisolism at 12 weeks after surgery. Eleven patients (17.4%) did not require glucocorticoids during the entire study period and 30 patients (47.6%) did not require glucocorticoids after 3 months. None of the patients developed adrenal crisis during the study. Hypocortisolism on the third post-operative day was the single significant predictor of hypocortisolism at 12 weeks after the surgery. There was a significant correlation between POD-3 0800 hrs cortisol ≥ 8μg/dL and stimulated cortisol (LDACTH) ≥16μg/dL at 12 weeks (r = 0.62, p < 0.0001). POD-3 0800 hrs cortisol ≥ 8 μg/dL had 73% sensitivity and 79% specificity in predicting eucortisolism at 12 weeks. CONCLUSIONS HPA function is preserved in significant proportion of NFPA patients undergoing E-TSA. Perioperative glucocorticoids should be given only in patients with demonstrable preoperative hypocortisolism on 1 μg ACTH test. Postoperative day 3 0800 hrs cortisol is a reasonable predictor of HPA axis status at 12 weeks after surgery.
