Abstract
Abstract
Background
COVID-19 vaccine hesitancy is a major problem worldwide that impedes vaccine uptake. We explored factors associated with vaccine hesitancy in Kazakhstan.
Methods
We conducted a cross-sectional face-to-face survey of 991 adults in Kazakhstan in July 2021, using quota sampling of respondents over 18 years old reflecting the distribution of gender, age, residence type, and geographical regions of Kazakhstan, according to the 2020 census.
Results
Over two third (68.4%) of the sample was vaccine hesitant; 22.11% - received a vaccine (18.6%-Sputnik V, 2%-Hayat-Vax, 0.9%-QazCovid and 0.6%- CoronaVac). We used logistic regression to explore factors that were associated with vaccine hesitancy, adjusting age, education, employment, type of residence, self-reported COVID-19. The odds of not being vaccine hesitant were higher among those who had a higher perception that the COVID-19 vaccine was important for health OR = 2.66 (95%CI:2.24,3.17), higher belief in vaccine safety/effectiveness OR = 3.16 (95%CI:2.57,3.89), higher trust in government/health providers OR = 3.32 (95%CI:2.72,4.05), higher trust in official sources of information OR = 1.16 (95%CI:1.12,1.21), higher adherence to preventive measures OR = 1.05 (95%CI:1.03,1.08), knew someone diagnosed with COVID-19 OR = 1.36 (95%CI:1.01,1.82), or who died of COVID-19 OR = 1.47 (95%CI:1.04,2.08), had been ever tested for COVID-19 OR = 1.75 (95%CI:1.30,2.35), had ever received flu vaccine OR = 2.16 (95%CI:1.62,2.88), among health professionals OR = 2.76 (95%CI:1.38,5.51), and who had lower vaccine conspiracy beliefs OR = 0.48 (95% CI:0.40,0.58).
Conclusions
Vaccine accepting individuals held positive beliefs about the COVID-19 vaccine, had greater trust in government/official sources of information/health care workers, had greater exposure to COVID-19. Interventions aimed at reducing vaccine hesitancy need to address sources people find credible and may need to target individuals who have had limited exposure to the risks of COVID-19.
Key messages
• Strategies to increase trust in government/ health care workers and official sources of information can be an effective approach to reduce COVID-19 vaccination hesitancy.
• Interventions to reduce COVID-19 vaccination hesitancy should target individuals who have had limited exposure to the risks of COVID-19.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aimed to characterize the clinical and histopathological features of arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC) in English Bulldogs, American Bulldogs, and Bulldog-type mixed breed dogs and assess affected Bulldogs for a striatin gene mutation previously reported in Boxers with ARVC. ANIMALS Seventy-one Bulldogs fit the inclusion criteria. Genetic analysis was performed on five dogs. Cardiac post-mortem evaluations were performed on two dogs. METHODS Medical records from a single veterinary cardiology group (CVCA) were retrospectively evaluated. Tissue and blood samples were submitted for histopathological analysis and genetic testing in select patients. RESULTS Presenting complaints included syncope (38%), arrhythmia (81.7%), or murmur (34.2%) documented on examination. On presentation, congestive heart failure (CHF) was diagnosed in 22 (31%) dogs, and 58 (81.7%) had ventricular arrhythmias. On bivariable analyses, the two-dimensional (2D) left atrial-to-aortic root ratio (LA:Ao) was the only prognostic variable significantly associated with survival time. Dogs with 2D LA:Ao below the mean (1.41) had longer median survival to all-cause mortality (12 months; 95% confidence interval [CI] 6.0-15.0 months) than those with 2D LA:Ao above the mean (four months; 95% CI 2.0-6.0 months; p=0.0384). Most dogs (54%) died from cardiac disease, with 42.1% experiencing sudden death. The median time from diagnosis to cardiac death was four months. CONCLUSIONS Arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy affects Bulldogs with both arrhythmogenic and dilated-type phenotypes. Despite variable arrhythmia severity and predominantly right-sided involvement in many dogs, an increase in left atrial size was the only significant predictor of mortality in this sample of dogs.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The Longitudinal Outcome Of Canine (K9) myxomatous mitral valve disease (MMVD) registry (LOOK-Mitral registry) was established to describe the natural history and predictors of outcome in dogs affected by MMVD. This study was intended to describe the baseline characteristics of dogs in the LOOK-mitral registry. ANIMALS Dogs with echocardiographic evidence of MMVD were prospectively enrolled by thirteen referral centers. RESULTS A total of 6102 dogs with MMVD were included. The median age was 10 years (1-19 years), and mixed breed was the most common breed (n = 1,360, 22%). Concomitant diseases were reported in 2459 dogs with chronic respiratory diseases occurring most frequently (14%), followed by the presence of azotemia (6%) and orthopedic diseases (5%). Regarding disease severity, 65% of dogs were in ACVIM Stage-B1, 15% in Stage-B2, and 20% in Stage-C. Dogs in Stage-B1 were younger (p<0.001) than dogs in other stages. Murmur intensity, heart rate during physical examination, and radiographic vertebral heart score were positively associated with the stage. Dogs in Stage-C were more likely to have tachypnea (p<0.001), dyspnea (p<0.001), cough (p<0.001), syncopal episodes (p<0.001), and tachyarrhythmias (p<0.001) compared to dogs in Stage-B1 and B2. Echocardiographic indices of left atrial and ventricular size were positively correlated with the ACVIM stage. Interestingly, 4% of dogs that weighed <20 kg had an increased normalized end-systolic left ventricle internal diameter (>1.26). CONCLUSIONS This study contributes to a better understanding of the clinical characteristics of dogs affected by MMVD and provides new findings that may be of clinical relevance.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Myxomatous mitral valve disease (MMVD) is the most common cause of left-sided congestive heart failure in dogs. We sought to identify predictors of first reoccurrence of congestive signs (CS) within 180 days in dogs with MMVD and clinically stable heart failure. ANIMALS A total of 445 dogs affected by stable American College of Veterinary Internal Medicine (ACVIM)-Stage-C MMVD were included, 106 in the reoccurrence group (RG) and 339 in no reoccurrence group (NRG). Patients were considered "stable" if medical treatment had been unchanged for at least 4 weeks since the first identification of CS. METHODS Medical records of dogs with stable ACVIM-Stage-C MMVD included in a registry of dogs affected by MMVD were reviewed. Follow-up was required for inclusion in this investigation. Logistic regression was used to identify clinical and echocardiographic variables that independently predict first reoccurrence of CS. RESULTS Baseline left atrial-aortic ratio (p=0.022, OR: 1.89, 90% CI: 1.20-2.98), left ventricular internal diameter at end-diastole (LVIDd_N) (p=0.014, OR: 2.84, 90% CI: 1.41-5.77), peak velocity of early diastolic transmitral flow (p=0.049, OR: 1.81, 90% CI: 1.10-3.00) and furosemide daily dosage (p=0.039, OR: 1.19, 90% CI: 1.04-1.37) were associated with reoccurrence of CS in univariable analyses. The LVIDd_N (p=0.014) remained significant in the multivariable analysis, but the area under the receiver operator characteristic curve was 0.57. CONCLUSION This study failed to identify accurate predictors of reoccurrence of CS. However, dogs with larger value of LVIDd_N are more likely to have reoccurrence of CS within 180 days.

Abstract
Purpose: This article outlines the process of establishing the Trans Youth Care Research Network, composed of four academic clinics providing care for transgender and gender-diverse (TGD) youth. The Network was formed to design and implement research studies to better understand physiologic and psychosocial outcomes of gender-affirming medical care among TGD youth. Methods: Formed in response to both the Institute of Medicine's report recommendation for an increase of data concerning sexual and gender minority populations and a transgender-specific NIH program announcement, The Center for Transyouth Health and Development at Children's Hospital Los Angeles, the Gender Management Service at Boston Children's Hospital, the Child and Adolescent Gender Center Clinic at Benioff Children's Hospital in San Francisco, and the Gender and Sex Development Program at Lurie Children's Hospital of Chicago established a collaborative research network that subsequently designed a longitudinal observational study of TGD youth undergoing medical interventions to address gender dysphoria. Results: Two cohorts, youth starting puberty blockers and youth starting gender-affirming hormones, are participating. Psychosocial measures that span multiple domains of mental and behavioral health are collected from youth and parents. Physiologic data are abstracted from patient's charts. Baseline and follow-up data of this large cohort will be disseminated through conferences, abstracts, posters, and articles. Conclusion: Since initiation of funding in 2015, a total of 497 participants have been enrolled in TYC across the four sites; gonadotropin releasing hormone analogs (GnRHa) cohort youth (n=93), GnRHa cohort parents (n=93), and gender affirming hormone cohort youth (n=311). As the network moves toward data dissemination, its lessons learned have helped strengthen the current study, as well as inform future endeavors in this field.

Abstract
Background Transgender children and adolescents (ie, those who experience incongruence between assigned sex at birth and internal gender identity) are poorly understood and an understudied population in the United States. Since 2008, medical care for transgender youth has generally followed guidelines developed by professional consensus, given the paucity of empirical research, particularly in the US setting. Objective The objective of this research was to provide evidence-based data to inform clinical care for transgender youth. The study aims (1) to evaluate the impact of gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonists administered for puberty suppression on mental health, psychological well-being, and metabolic and physiologic parameters including bone health in a cohort of children and adolescents (Tanner stages 2-4) with gender dysphoria, comparing baseline and follow-up assessments, and (2) to determine the impact of gender-affirming hormones (eg, estradiol and testosterone) administered for phenotypic gender transition on mental health, psychological well-being, and metabolic and physiologic parameters in a cohort of adolescents with gender dysphoria, comparing baseline and follow-up assessments. Methods The study uses a longitudinal observational design to examine the outcomes of existing medical treatment protocols for gender dysphoria in two distinct cohorts: youth initiating puberty suppression and youth pursuing a phenotypic gender transition. Data on routine anthropometric and physiologic parameters are collected through chart abstraction, questionnaires, and research interviews in the 24-month study period. Audio computer-assisted self-interview and individual interview survey instruments are used to collect demographic, mental health, psychosocial, and behavioral data from parents and youth in the blocker cohort and only from youth in the gender-affirming hormone cohort at baseline and 6, 12, 18, and 24 months. Results Participant recruitment commenced in July 2016, and enrollment was completed in September 2018. A total of 90 participants were enrolled in the blocker cohort and 301 participants were enrolled in the gender-affirming hormone cohort. Findings based on baseline data are expected to be submitted for publication in 2019. Conclusions This longitudinal, observational study is collecting critical data on the existing models of care for transgender youth that have been used in clinical settings for close to a decade, although with limited empirical research to support them. This research is a direct response to the Institute of Medicine report calling for such studies as well as the needs of clinicians and patients. Results from this study have the potential to significantly impact the medical and mental health services provided to transgender youth by making available rigorous scientific evidence on the impact and safety of early treatment based on the sexual development stage. Ultimately, we aim to understand if early medical intervention reduces the health disparities well known to disproportionately affect transgender individuals across their lifespan.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE There are variable reports of risk of concordance for progression to islet autoantibodies and type 1 diabetes in identical twins after one twin is diagnosed. We examined development of positive autoantibodies and type 1 diabetes and the effects of genetic factors and common environment on autoantibody positivity in identical twins, nonidentical twins, and full siblings. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Subjects from the TrialNet Pathway to Prevention Study (N = 48,026) were screened from 2004 to 2015 for islet autoantibodies (GAD antibody [GADA], insulinoma-associated antigen 2 [IA-2A], and autoantibodies against insulin [IAA]). Of these subjects, 17,226 (157 identical twins, 283 nonidentical twins, and 16,786 full siblings) were followed for autoantibody positivity or type 1 diabetes for a median of 2.1 years. RESULTS At screening, identical twins were more likely to have positive GADA, IA-2A, and IAA than nonidentical twins or full siblings (all P < 0.0001). Younger age, male sex, and genetic factors were significant factors for expression of IA-2A, IAA, one or more positive autoantibodies, and two or more positive autoantibodies (all P ≤ 0.03). Initially autoantibody-positive identical twins had a 69% risk of diabetes by 3 years compared with 1.5% for initially autoantibody-negative identical twins. In nonidentical twins, type 1 diabetes risk by 3 years was 72% for initially multiple autoantibody-positive, 13% for single autoantibody-positive, and 0% for initially autoantibody-negative nonidentical twins. Full siblings had a 3-year type 1 diabetes risk of 47% for multiple autoantibody-positive, 12% for single autoantibody-positive, and 0.5% for initially autoantibody-negative subjects. CONCLUSIONS Risk of type 1 diabetes at 3 years is high for initially multiple and single autoantibody-positive identical twins and multiple autoantibody-positive nonidentical twins. Genetic predisposition, age, and male sex are significant risk factors for development of positive autoantibodies in twins.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We tested the ability of a type 1 diabetes (T1D) genetic risk score (GRS) to predict progression of islet autoimmunity and T1D in at-risk individuals. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS We studied the 1,244 TrialNet Pathway to Prevention study participants (T1D patients' relatives without diabetes and with one or more positive autoantibodies) who were genotyped with Illumina ImmunoChip (median [range] age at initial autoantibody determination 11.1 years [1.2-51.8], 48% male, 80.5% non-Hispanic white, median follow-up 5.4 years). Of 291 participants with a single positive autoantibody at screening, 157 converted to multiple autoantibody positivity and 55 developed diabetes. Of 953 participants with multiple positive autoantibodies at screening, 419 developed diabetes. We calculated the T1D GRS from 30 T1D-associated single nucleotide polymorphisms. We used multivariable Cox regression models, time-dependent receiver operating characteristic curves, and area under the curve (AUC) measures to evaluate prognostic utility of T1D GRS, age, sex, Diabetes Prevention Trial-Type 1 (DPT-1) Risk Score, positive autoantibody number or type, HLA DR3/DR4-DQ8 status, and race/ethnicity. We used recursive partitioning analyses to identify cut points in continuous variables. RESULTS Higher T1D GRS significantly increased the rate of progression to T1D adjusting for DPT-1 Risk Score, age, number of positive autoantibodies, sex, and ethnicity (hazard ratio [HR] 1.29 for a 0.05 increase, 95% CI 1.06-1.6; P = 0.011). Progression to T1D was best predicted by a combined model with GRS, number of positive autoantibodies, DPT-1 Risk Score, and age (7-year time-integrated AUC = 0.79, 5-year AUC = 0.73). Higher GRS was significantly associated with increased progression rate from single to multiple positive autoantibodies after adjusting for age, autoantibody type, ethnicity, and sex (HR 2.27 for GRS >0.295, 95% CI 1.47-3.51; P = 0.0002). CONCLUSIONS The T1D GRS independently predicts progression to T1D and improves prediction along T1D stages in autoantibody-positive relatives.

Abstract
Dementia is a major public health problem worldwide. Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a major form of dementia and the APOE 4 allele is an established genetic risk factor for AD. Similarly, stressful life events are also associated with dementia. The objective of this study was to examine the association of APOE 4 and stressful life events with dementia in a Pakistani sample, which to our knowledge has not been reported previously. We also tested for an interaction between stressful life events and APOE 4 on dementia risk. A total of 176 subjects (61 cases and 115 controls) were recruited. All cases and healthy controls were interviewed to assess cognition, co-morbidities, history of stressful life events and demographics. Blood genotyping for the APOE polymorphism (E2/E3/E4) was performed. APOE 4 and stressful life events were each independently and significantly associated with the risk of dementia (APOE 4: P=0.00697; stressful life events: P=5.29E-09). However, we did not find a significant interaction between APOE 4 carrier status and stressful life events on risk of dementia (P=0.677). Although the sample size of this study was small, the established association of APOE 4 with dementia was confirmed the first time in a Pakistani sample. Furthermore, stressful life events were also found to be significantly associated with dementia in this population.

Abstract
Numerical simulations of lubrication models provide clues for experimentalists about the development of wave structures in thin liquid films. We analyze numerical simulations of a lubrication model for an inclined thin liquid film modified by Marangoni forces due to a thermal gradient and additional localized forcing heating the substrate. Numerical results can be explained through connections to theory for hyperbolic conservation laws predicting wave fronts from Marangoni-driven thin films without forcing. We demonstrate how a variety of forcing profiles, such as gaussian, rectangular, and triangular, affect the formation of downstream transient structures, including an N wave not commonly discussed in the context of thin films. Simulations employing a controlled approximation of a compressive-undercompressive wave pair demonstrate possibilities for applications of localized forcing as microfluidic valve. In the simulations, localized forcing provides a control parameter that can be used to determine mass flux and film profiles.

Abstract
PURPOSE Low-dose radiotherapy (LD-RT) of arthritic joints applied during the peak of the acute inflammatory response improves the clinical and histomorphological development of adjuvant arthritis. The study was undertaken to investigate the cellular composition of the inflammatory infiltrate and the expression of the pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory enzymes, inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), cyclo-oxygenase 2 (COX-2) and haem-oxygenase 1 (HO-1), in response to LD-RT. MATERIALS AND METHODS Adjuvant arthritis in female Lewis rats was induced by intradermal injection of heat-inactivated mycobacterium tuberculosis on day 0. Both arthritic hind paws were sham irradiated (group 1) or X-irradiated with either 5 x 1.0 Gy (group 2) or 5 x 0.5 Gy (group 3) from days 15 to 19 after induction (15 animals/group). On days 21 (n=12 joints/group) and 30 (n=18 joints/group), cryostat sections were analysed histologically and immunohistologically after specific staining for macrophages, iNOS, COX-2 and HO-1. RESULTS A total of 5 x 1.0 Gy or 5 x 0.5 Gy led to a significant reduction of clinical symptoms from days 21 to 29, and a highly significant reduction of cartilage and bone destruction on day 30. Macrophage-positive areas could be detected continuously throughout the periarticular infiltrate, and were slightly reduced after LD-RT on days 21 and 30. This reduction was more pronounced after 5 x 1.0 Gy. Following LD-RT, the iNOS score was reduced by about 45-50% on days 21 (p<0.05) and 30 (p<0.001). In contrast, the HO-1 score was increased by about 50% on days 21 (p=0.08) and 30 (p=0.03). CONCLUSIONS The clinically and histologically observed prevention of the progression of adjuvant arthritis after LD-RT given during the peak of the acute inflammatory response and the reduction of cartilage and bone destruction in the chronic phase appears to be related to the modulation of iNOS activity by low X-ray doses.

Abstract
Screening asymptomatic adolescents for genital herpes will require sensitivity to adolescents' developmental needs. Twenty-four adolescents (age range 1619 years) were interviewed to explore their perceptions of screening. In general, adolescents thought screening for genital herpes would be viewed as taking care of themselves, although there were concerns that their peers might view getting screened as implying that the adolescent was infected or sexually promiscuous. Most adolescents expected their parents to respond positively, but typically thought that younger adolescents should obtain parental consent for screening, and that adolescents should inform their parents of positive test results. Adolescents wanted to be screened in settings that provided confidentiality and by non-judgemental care providers, but they differed on the setting which they believed would accomplish this. Some recommended mass screening (for example, screening all of those in a certain year at school), presumably as a way to reduce embarrassment and/or stigma. Screening programmes that are adolescent-friendly and accessible, and address adolescents' specific concerns regarding managing the information, can be created.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Electronic information exchange is believed to improve efficiency and reduce resource utilization. We developed a Web-based standardized communication system (SCS) that enables family physicians to receive detailed reports of their patients' care in the emergency department. We sought to determine the impact of the SCS on measures of resource utilization in the emergency department and family physician offices. METHODS We used an open 4-period crossover cluster-randomized controlled design. During 2 separate 10-week intervention phases, family physicians received detailed reports of their patients' emergency department visits over the Internet, and in the alternating control phases they received a 1-page copy of the emergency department notes by mail. The primary outcome was the number of repeat visits to the emergency department within 14 days of the initial visit. Secondary outcomes included duplication of test and specialty consultation requests by the emergency and family physician. Outcomes were measured using the hospital database and questionnaires sent to the family physicians. RESULTS A total of 2022 patient visits to the emergency department from 23 practices were used in the study. Use of the SCS failed to reduce the number of repeat visits to the emergency department within 14 days (odds ratio [OR] 1.10, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.8-1.51) and 28 days (OR 1.01, 95% CI 0.8-1.27). There was no significant duplication of requests for diagnostic tests between the emergency and family physician during the intervention and control phases (24 v. 22, p = 0.93), but there was significantly greater duplication in specialty consultation requests in the intervention phase than in the control phase (20 v. 8, p = 0.049). INTERPRETATION An electronic link between emergency and family physicians did not result in a significant reduction in resource utilization at either service point. Investments in improved electronic information exchange between emergency departments and family physician offices may not be substantiated by a reduction in resource utilization.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate the impact of an emergency department (ED)-based nurse discharge plan coordinator (NDPC) on unscheduled return visits within 14 days of discharge, satisfaction with discharge recommendations, adherence with discharge instructions, and perception of well-being of elder patients discharged from the ED. METHODS Patients aged 75 years and older discharged from the ED of the Sir Mortimer B. Davis-Jewish General Hospital were recruited in a pre/post study. During the pre (control) phase, study patients (n = 905) received standard discharge care. Patients in the post (intervention) phase (n = 819) received the intervention of an ED-based NDPC. The intervention included patient education, coordination of appointments, patient education, telephone follow-up, and access to the NDPC for up to seven days following discharge. RESULTS Patients in the two groups were similar with respect to gender and age. However, the patients managed by the ED NDPC appeared to be, at baseline, less autonomous, frailer, and sicker. The unadjusted relative risk for unscheduled return visits within 14 days of discharge was 0.79 (95% confidence interval [95% CI] = 0.62 to 1.02). A relative risk reduction of 27% (95% CI = 0% to 44%) for unscheduled return visits was observed for up to eight days postdischarge, and a relative risk reduction of 19% (95% CI = -2% to 36%) for unscheduled return visits was observed for up to 14 days postdischarge. Significant increases in satisfaction with the clarity of discharge information and perceived well-being were also noted. CONCLUSIONS An ED-based NDPC, dedicated specifically to the discharge planning care of elder patients, reduces the proportion of unscheduled ED return visits and facilitates the transition from ED back home and into the community health care network.

Abstract
Neuropsychologists and other clinicians often comment on the minimal relationship that frequently exists between formal assessments of executive functions, analysis of findings, recommendations, and the person's real-life functioning. The authors' believe that current assessments of executive functions do not transfer easily to real-world behavior. There are limitations in the current examinations and in the settings in which they are given. The tests are artificial and the test settings lack the usual stresses, distractions, and multiple demands common to real life. The interactions are unlike what they experience in everyday life. The examiner often, but unintentionally orients the participant to relevant information that in turn can help the person compensate for the difficulties with executive control processes and bias the findings. We believe that virtual reality (VR) more closely approximates real life settings, the distractions, and the common interchanges (VR) provides a "life-like," three-dimensional (3-D) highly interactive environment, and safety from potential dangers that could arise in actual situations. VR can increase motivation because of its gaming, interactive, and immersive qualities and features are easily modified and allow for multiple applications. Our goal is to develop VR assessments that can be administered under controlled and safe conditions, but which are more sensitive to difficulties with executive control processes critical to safe, independent living. This initial study compares several functions assessed by the Wisconsin Card Sorting Test (WCST) with our three-dimensional, stereographic scenario, Look for a Match (LFAM) Study participants completed questionnaires, alternately began with either the WCST or LFAM, and then took the second test. All participants completed motion sickness and follow-up questionnaires. The results demonstrated that the study participants found LFAM to be more enjoyable and interesting, but found the WCST to be easier. While there is an effect of order with participants doing relatively better on the assessment tool administered second, overall the LFAM performance was inferior to that on the WCST. However, even considering the order effect, LFAM seemed to be more difficult than the WCST.

Abstract
In 1965, with the help of Dr. Henry D. Janowitz, Irwin M. Rosenthal established the Foundation for Research in Ileitis, Inc., now known as the Crohn's and Colitis Foundation of America, Inc. He was joined shortly thereafter by William D. Modell. At that time, the entire annual NIH budget for research on inflammatory bowel disease was only $25,000. Successful fund raising made it possible to recruit a research fellow at The Mount Sinai Hospital in the Division of Gastroenterology to study ileitis. Thereafter, the efforts of the foundation expanded nationwide. It supported a nationally coordinated research program and sponsored education for physicians, patients and the public. In addition, it established support groups to help patients and their families cope with Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis. With the energy and philanthropy of the foundation's many lay leaders, tens of millions of dollars have been raised for research and education in inflammatory bowel disease.

Abstract
This study examines same- and other-sex friendship networks and perceptions of peer competence as functions of stigmatization, defined as shame and a self-blame attributional style. Fifty-six sexually abused adolescents were seen at the time of abuse discovery and 1 year later. Higher self-blame attributional style for the abuse was related to more satisfaction with other-sex friends and less satisfaction with same-sex friends. More shame was related to less satisfaction with same-sex friends and to having a larger number of other-sex friends. Higher self-blame attributional style was related to perceptions of poorer peer acceptance and close friendship and to perceptions of poorer romantic appeal. More shame was related to lower perceptions of peer acceptance and close friendship. The results support the idea that abuse victims who experience higher levels of shame and self-blame attributional style feel less capable of forming satisfying relationships with peers, friends, and potential romantic partners.

Abstract
STUDY OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to understand how health care providers use and distribute oral contraceptive pill (OCP) sample packs to adolescents. DESIGN Qualitative study involving face-to-face structured interviews. SETTING Interviews lasted approximately 20-30 minutes and were done in the health care provider's office setting. PARTICIPANTS A convenience sample of fourteen health care providers (pediatricians, family practitioners, nurse practitioners, and midwives) who have practices that include adolescents were interviewed. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Interviews were audio-recorded and transcribed. Two independent reviewers read the transcripts for themes. Transcripts were then coded and frequency counts were done. CONCLUSIONS OCP sample packs are an important tool for education and compliance. The pharmaceutical OCP sample supply may influence the health care provider's OCP choice for a teen.

Abstract
Background: To date, few studies have used a longitudinal approach in examining risk factors for STD acquisition in teenage girls. In the present study, we examined risk of STD acquisition in adolescent girls over a three-year period using longitudinal analyses.Methods: One hundred and seventy-four girls between the ages of 12 and 16 (mean age = 14.5) participated in a longitudinal study of adolescent romantic relationships. The racial composition of the subject pool was 80% African-American and 20% Caucasian. These girls were followed for three years at six-month intervals. By the end of the study, 127 of the girls were sexually experienced, and thus, were included in the analyses regarding risk for STDs. The risk for history of STD was evaluated using a generalized estimating equations (GEE) model, which allows for the inclusion of data from subjects with missing visits. The following independent variables were entered into the model: age, race, screening IQ score, qualitative cognitive functioning, perceptions of STD prevalence among female friends, and whether a condom was used at last intercourse. Additional independent variables included number of lifetime partners (4 or more lifetime partners, 2 to 3 lifetime partners, only one partner) and age of sexual debut (less than 14 years, 14-16 years, and 17 years and older), five factors from the Family Environment Scale, and three types of parental monitoring (direct, direct when with peers, and indirect).Results: The results of the longitudinal (GEE) model indicated that having a history of an STD was significantly related to a younger age of sexual debut (p <.01), having more partners (p <.0001), being African-American (p =. 01), and having a lower screening IQ score (p <.01).Conclusions: These results suggest that risk of STD is associated with both modifiable and non-modifiable variables. Race and intellectual functioning independently contributed to STD risk, stressing the importance of utilizing prevention programs that are culturally and developmentally specific. For example, less intelligent girls may need to have information presented in a more concrete manner, with a focus on the present rather than the future. The targets of these prevention programs should continue to emphasize delaying initiation, as well as partner selection. Finally, the fact that variables for STD acquisition in this longitudinal model are comparable to previous cross-sectional studies of STD acquisition suggests that these are potent predictors of risk.

Abstract
Continuity in attachment classification from infancy to late adolescence was examined and related to autobiographical memories of childhood, divorce, and maladjustment. Eighty-four White middle-class children (48 girls) were seen in a modified Strange Situation at 12 months and given the Adult Attachment Interview at 18 years. In addition, data were collected on 13-year-olds' childhood recollections as well as adolescent, mother, and teacher ratings of maladjustment at 13 and 18 years of age. Divorce status of parents also was obtained. Results indicated no continuity in attachment classification from 1 to 18 years of age and no relation between infant attachment status and adolescent maladjustment. Divorce was related to 13-year-olds' childhood recollections as well as to insecure attachment status at 18 years. Eighteen-year-olds with insecure attachment classification were more likely to rate themselves as maladjusted. The results support the idea of attachment as an evolving representation dependent upon the nature of the family environment as indexed by divorce.

Abstract
The present study assessed the prevalence of chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) in a sample of nurses. There is a paucity of studies on the prevalence of CFS in healthcare professionals. Two samples of nurses were recruited through mailed questionnaires. Data were collected on demographic characteristics and symptoms. In addition from the sample, those nurses with CFS-like symptoms were more comprehensively evaluated using a structured clinical interview and reviewing their medical records. A physician review team estimated the prevalence of CFS to be 1,088 per 100,000. These findings suggest that nurses might represent a high-risk group for this illness, possibly due to occupational stressors such as exposure to viruses in the work setting, stressful shift work that is disruptive to biologic rhythms, or to other possible stressors in the work settings (e.g., accidents).

Abstract
The sharp lateral penumbra and the rapid fall-off of dose at the end of range of a proton beam are among the major advantages of proton radiation therapy. These beam characteristics depend on the position and characteristics of upstream beam-modifying devices such as apertures and compensating boluses. The extent of separation, if any, between these beam-modifying devices and the patient is particularly critical in this respect. We have developed a pencil beam algorithm for proton dose calculations which takes accurate account of the effects of materials upstream of the patient and of the air gap between them and the patient. The model includes a new approach to picking the locations of the pencil beams so as to more accurately model the penumbra and to more effectively account for the multiple-scattering effects of the media around the point of interest. We also present a faster broad-beam version of the algorithm which gives a reasonably accurate penumbra. Predictions of the algorithm and results from experiments performed in a large-field proton beam are presented. In general the algorithm agrees well with the measurements.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine the impact of the introduction of acellular pertussis vaccine for the fourth and fifth doses of the diphtheria and tetanus toxoids and pertussis vaccine series in children on rates of reported vaccine-associated adverse events in the United States. DESIGN Analysis of postmarketing vaccine adverse event data from the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System during the years 1991 to 1993. POPULATION STUDIED Approximately 27 million doses of diphtheria and tetanus toxoids and pertussis vaccine and 5 million doses of diphtheria and tetanus toxoids and acellular pertussis vaccine were distributed from 1991 to 1993 to children 15 months to 7 years of age. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Rates of reported fever, seizures, and hospitalizations after pertussis vaccination. RESULTS Rates of reported adverse events per 100,000 vaccinations were significantly lower after administration of diphtheria and tetanus toxoids and acellular pertussis vaccine than diphtheria and tetanus toxoids and pertussis vaccine for the following outcomes: all reports, 2.9 vs 9.8; fever, 1.9 vs 7.5; seizures, 0.5 vs 1.7; and hospitalizations, 0.2 vs 0.9. CONCLUSIONS These results confirm that minor adverse events are less frequent after administration of the acellular pertussis vaccine. In addition, these data suggested that seizures and hospitalizations associated with pertussis vaccination are less frequent after administration of the acellular pertussis vaccine in age groups for which it is now recommended.

Abstract
The understanding and treatment of dyspnea in the cancer patient are where the science of pain management was 15 or 20 years ago. Very few studies have examined the pathophysiologic mechanisms that cause dyspnea in cancer patients, and few investigators have evaluated therapeutic strategies to control dyspnea in this patient group. The optimal therapy for dyspnea is treatment of the underlying cause. When this is not possible, opioids and phenothiazines provide effective symptomatic relief in most cases, but many unanswered questions remain. Are these the optimal drugs, and what are their optimal doses? What are the effects of chronic dosing? Which is the best route of administration? How serious are the risks of respiratory depression? A clear consensus supports the aggressive treatment of pain in terminally ill cancer patients, even if death is hastened as an unintended consequence. No such position has yet been reached in the management of dyspnea in the same population. As a result, dyspnea is addressed only very late in the course of the disease, perhaps reducing the patient's quality of life and function at earlier stages and resulting in a very small "therapeutic window" in the terminal phase. Clearly, a need exists for more research to determine the most effective management of this common and very distressing symptom.

Abstract
To evaluate reporting sensitivities for vaccine adverse events, reporting rates were estimated by dividing the number of events reported to the Monitoring System for Adverse Events Following Immunization and the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System in a given period by the number of doses administered or distributed during the same period. Reporting sensitivity was calculated as the ratio of the rates at which events were reported to each passive surveillance system (numerator) and occurred in controlled studies (denominator). Reporting sensitivities were generally better in the public sector than in the private sector. The significant underreporting of known outcomes, together with the nonspecific nature of most adverse event reports, highlights the limitations of passive surveillance systems in assessing the incidence of vaccine adverse events.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE--To determine whether standard manual frequency filters in the ON and OFF settings affected P-QRS-T voltages, discover whether recorded P-QRS-T voltages vary between commercial electrocardiographs, assess effects of frequency filters on base-line artifact, and evaluate ECG frequency content by high-fidelity recordings subjected to digital filters with variable frequencies. DESIGN--Sequential 10-lead ECG were recorded in 30 cats, using 3 commercial electrocardiographs to assess effects of manual frequency filters on the P-QRS-T wave forms. Three clinically normal cats were evaluated for ECG frequency content. ANIMALS--Thirty cats (13 with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy; 4 with restrictive cardiomyopathy; 3 hyperthyroid; 1 with ventricular septal defect; 1 with aortic stenosis; and 8 with no detectable cardiovascular disease). Three additional clinically normal cats were studied for effects of frequency filters on the ECG frequency content. PROCEDURES--Ten-lead ECG were recorded on each cat by use of 3 commercial electrocardiographs sequentially. For each machine, a recording was made with manual filters ON, immediately followed by a recording with manual filters OFF. High-fidelity lead-II ECG recordings were made with filters set with their rolloff frequency at 0.1 Hz and 3.0 kHz; output voltage (0.2 mV/V) was fed to an analog-to-digital converter, then to attendant software, which sampled the signal at 6 kHz with a 12-bit sampler, and were digitally filtered at various corner frequencies. RESULTS--Voltages recorded by all 3 electrocardiographs were greatest when filters were OFF (most prominent on R- and S-wave voltages). In all recorded leads, R-wave voltage was significantly greater when filters were OFF than ON. Comparison of voltages indicated significant (P < 0.05) differences between R-wave voltages recorded in all leads with manual filters ON, but not with filters OFF. With filters ON, each electrocardiograph produced a smaller percentage of recordings with moderate to severe baseline artifact than with filters OFF. R-Wave amplitudes of high-fidelity lead-II ECG were significantly decreased with digital filters set at corner frequencies < 150 Hz. CONCLUSIONS--Significant (P < 0.05) voltage attenuation was recorded by each of the 3 commercial electrocardiographs when frequency filters were ON, compared with OFF. Comparison of waveform voltages among electrocardiographs with filters ON indicated significant variation in R-wave amplitudes in all leads. With manual filters ON, each electrocardiograph recorded a smaller percentage of recordings with baseline artifact than with filters OFF. Substantial frequency components > or = 150 Hz are present in the feline ECG waveform. Thus, filters with frequencies < 150 Hz markedly attenuate the feline R wave. CLINICAL RELEVANCE--Attenuation of feline ECG signals occurs with use of commercial electrocardiographs and varies greatly between manufacturers. This is attributable largely to internal manual frequency filters. These consequences may be important when applying standard feline reference values or when equivocal voltage measurements are recorded.

Abstract
To evaluate the role of adults in the transmission of pertussis during an epidemic, persons presenting with unexplained cough to ambulatory care clinics were evaluated for evidence of pertussis infection. Nasopharyngeal specimens for culture and serum samples for IgG and IgA antibodies to filamentous hemagglutinin and pertussis toxin antigens of Bordetella pertussis were obtained. Thirty-eight adults were enrolled in the study; 10 (26%) had serologic evidence of B. pertussis infection. Clinical findings were not significantly different among persons with and without evidence of pertussis infection. Pertussis should be considered in the differential diagnosis of persistent cough in all age groups. Future use of new acellular pertussis vaccines in adults may substantially impact the control of the infection.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess the impact of adjuvant chemotherapy for the management of breast cancer on subsequent patient employment. DESIGN Retrospective cohort study. SETTING University-affiliated community hospital cancer center. PATIENTS Patients who were 18 to 65 years old and were diagnosed as having breast cancer stages 0, I, II, and IIIa between January 1986 and January 1991 were contacted and asked whether they had been employed at the time of the diagnosis. The 145 patients who had breast cancer and who had been working at the time of diagnosis completed a questionnaire, which included questions regarding demographic characteristics, employment history, and the reasons for any period of unemployment. The 76 patients who had received adjuvant chemotherapy were compared with the 69 who had not. MEASUREMENTS AND RESULTS The main endpoint was return to work by one, three, six, and 12 months after surgery. Of the 76 patients who had received chemotherapy, 70 (92%) had resumed work by 12 months after treatment began. Of the 69 who had not been treated with chemotherapy, 65 (94%) had resumed work in 12 months. The proportions of patients who had returned to work by one, three, and six months were similar in the two groups. Regression analyses demonstrated no significant confounding or interaction of adjuvant treatment with age, menopausal status, marital status, years of education, or type of job in regard to return to work. CONCLUSIONS Adjuvant chemotherapy does not delay or prevent return to work in women treated for early-stage breast cancer.

Abstract
We have developed a collaborative scheme that facilitates active human supervision of the binary segmentation of an echocardiogram. The scheme complements the reliability of a human expert with the precision of segmentation algorithms. In the developed system, an expert user compares the computer generated segmentation with the original image in a user friendly graphics environment, and interactively indicates the incorrectly classified regions either by pointing or by circling. The precise boundaries of the indicated regions are computed by studying original image properties at that region, and a human visual attention distribution map obtained from the published psychological and psychophysical research. We use the developed system to extract contours of heart chambers from a sequence of two dimensional echocardiograms. We are currently extending this method to incorporate a richer set of inputs from the human supervisor, to facilitate multi-classification of image regions depending on their functionality. We are integrating into our system the knowledge related constraints that cardiologists use, to improve the capabilities of our existing system. This extension involves developing a psychological model of expert reasoning, functional and relational models of typical views in echocardiograms, and corresponding interface modifications to map the suggested actions to image processing algorithms.
