Abstract
INTRODUCTION The multiorgan impact of moderate to severe coronavirus infections in the post-acute phase is still poorly understood. We aimed to evaluate the excess burden of multiorgan abnormalities after hospitalisation with COVID-19, evaluate their determinants, and explore associations with patient-related outcome measures. METHODS In a prospective, UK-wide, multicentre MRI follow-up study (C-MORE), adults (aged ≥18 years) discharged from hospital following COVID-19 who were included in Tier 2 of the Post-hospitalisation COVID-19 study (PHOSP-COVID) and contemporary controls with no evidence of previous COVID-19 (SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid antibody negative) underwent multiorgan MRI (lungs, heart, brain, liver, and kidneys) with quantitative and qualitative assessment of images and clinical adjudication when relevant. Individuals with end-stage renal failure or contraindications to MRI were excluded. Participants also underwent detailed recording of symptoms, and physiological and biochemical tests. The primary outcome was the excess burden of multiorgan abnormalities (two or more organs) relative to controls, with further adjustments for potential confounders. The C-MORE study is ongoing and is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT04510025. FINDINGS Of 2710 participants in Tier 2 of PHOSP-COVID, 531 were recruited across 13 UK-wide C-MORE sites. After exclusions, 259 C-MORE patients (mean age 57 years [SD 12]; 158 [61%] male and 101 [39%] female) who were discharged from hospital with PCR-confirmed or clinically diagnosed COVID-19 between March 1, 2020, and Nov 1, 2021, and 52 non-COVID-19 controls from the community (mean age 49 years [SD 14]; 30 [58%] male and 22 [42%] female) were included in the analysis. Patients were assessed at a median of 5·0 months (IQR 4·2-6·3) after hospital discharge. Compared with non-COVID-19 controls, patients were older, living with more obesity, and had more comorbidities. Multiorgan abnormalities on MRI were more frequent in patients than in controls (157 [61%] of 259 vs 14 [27%] of 52; p<0·0001) and independently associated with COVID-19 status (odds ratio [OR] 2·9 [95% CI 1·5-5·8]; padjusted=0·0023) after adjusting for relevant confounders. Compared with controls, patients were more likely to have MRI evidence of lung abnormalities (p=0·0001; parenchymal abnormalities), brain abnormalities (p<0·0001; more white matter hyperintensities and regional brain volume reduction), and kidney abnormalities (p=0·014; lower medullary T1 and loss of corticomedullary differentiation), whereas cardiac and liver MRI abnormalities were similar between patients and controls. Patients with multiorgan abnormalities were older (difference in mean age 7 years [95% CI 4-10]; mean age of 59·8 years [SD 11·7] with multiorgan abnormalities vs mean age of 52·8 years [11·9] without multiorgan abnormalities; p<0·0001), more likely to have three or more comorbidities (OR 2·47 [1·32-4·82]; padjusted=0·0059), and more likely to have a more severe acute infection (acute CRP >5mg/L, OR 3·55 [1·23-11·88]; padjusted=0·025) than those without multiorgan abnormalities. Presence of lung MRI abnormalities was associated with a two-fold higher risk of chest tightness, and multiorgan MRI abnormalities were associated with severe and very severe persistent physical and mental health impairment (PHOSP-COVID symptom clusters) after hospitalisation. INTERPRETATION After hospitalisation for COVID-19, people are at risk of multiorgan abnormalities in the medium term. Our findings emphasise the need for proactive multidisciplinary care pathways, with the potential for imaging to guide surveillance frequency and therapeutic stratification.

Abstract
The Concise Guide to PHARMACOLOGY 2023/24 is the sixth in this series of biennial publications. The Concise Guide provides concise overviews, mostly in tabular format, of the key properties of approximately 1800 drug targets, and about 6000 interactions with about 3900 ligands. There is an emphasis on selective pharmacology (where available), plus links to the open access knowledgebase source of drug targets and their ligands (www.guidetopharmacology.org), which provides more detailed views of target and ligand properties. Although the Concise Guide constitutes almost 500 pages, the material presented is substantially reduced compared to information and links presented on the website. It provides a permanent, citable, point-in-time record that will survive database updates. The full contents of this section can be found at http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/bph.16176. In addition to this overview, in which are identified 'Other protein targets' which fall outside of the subsequent categorisation, there are six areas of focus: G protein-coupled receptors, ion channels, nuclear hormone receptors, catalytic receptors, enzymes and transporters. These are presented with nomenclature guidance and summary information on the best available pharmacological tools, alongside key references and suggestions for further reading. The landscape format of the Concise Guide is designed to facilitate comparison of related targets from material contemporary to mid-2023, and supersedes data presented in the 2021/22, 2019/20, 2017/18, 2015/16 and 2013/14 Concise Guides and previous Guides to Receptors and Channels. It is produced in close conjunction with the Nomenclature and Standards Committee of the International Union of Basic and Clinical Pharmacology (NC-IUPHAR), therefore, providing official IUPHAR classification and nomenclature for human drug targets, where appropriate.

Abstract
Vaccines are critical tools to treat and prevent diseases. For an effective conjugate vaccine, the carrier is crucial, but few carriers are available for clinical applications. In addition, a drawback of current protein carriers is that high levels of antibodies against the carrier are induced by the conjugate vaccine, which are known to interfere with the immune responses against the target antigen. To overcome these challenges, we obtained the near atomic resolution crystal structure of an emerging protein carrier, i.e., the bacteriophage Qβ virus like particle. On the basis of the detailed structural information, novel mutants of bacteriophage Qβ (mQβ) have been designed, which upon conjugation with tumor associated carbohydrate antigens (TACAs), a class of important tumor antigens, elicited powerful anti-TACA IgG responses and yet produced lower levels of anticarrier antibodies as compared to those from the wild type Qβ-TACA conjugates. In a therapeutic model against an aggressive breast cancer in mice, 100% unimmunized mice succumbed to tumors in just 12 days even with chemotherapy. In contrast, 80% of mice immunized with the mQβ-TACA conjugate were completely free from tumors. Besides TACAs, to aid in the development of vaccines to protect against COVID-19, the mQβ based conjugate vaccine has been shown to induce high levels of IgG antibodies against peptide antigens from the SARS-CoV-2 virus, demonstrating its generality. Thus, mQβ is a promising next-generation carrier platform for conjugate vaccines, and structure-based rational design is a powerful strategy to develop new vaccine carriers.

Abstract
BACKGROUND No effective pharmacological or non-pharmacological interventions exist for patients with long COVID. We aimed to describe recovery 1 year after hospital discharge for COVID-19, identify factors associated with patient-perceived recovery, and identify potential therapeutic targets by describing the underlying inflammatory profiles of the previously described recovery clusters at 5 months after hospital discharge. METHODS The Post-hospitalisation COVID-19 study (PHOSP-COVID) is a prospective, longitudinal cohort study recruiting adults (aged ≥18 years) discharged from hospital with COVID-19 across the UK. Recovery was assessed using patient-reported outcome measures, physical performance, and organ function at 5 months and 1 year after hospital discharge, and stratified by both patient-perceived recovery and recovery cluster. Hierarchical logistic regression modelling was performed for patient-perceived recovery at 1 year. Cluster analysis was done using the clustering large applications k-medoids approach using clinical outcomes at 5 months. Inflammatory protein profiling was analysed from plasma at the 5-month visit. This study is registered on the ISRCTN Registry, ISRCTN10980107, and recruitment is ongoing. FINDINGS 2320 participants discharged from hospital between March 7, 2020, and April 18, 2021, were assessed at 5 months after discharge and 807 (32·7%) participants completed both the 5-month and 1-year visits. 279 (35·6%) of these 807 patients were women and 505 (64·4%) were men, with a mean age of 58·7 (SD 12·5) years, and 224 (27·8%) had received invasive mechanical ventilation (WHO class 7-9). The proportion of patients reporting full recovery was unchanged between 5 months (501 [25·5%] of 1965) and 1 year (232 [28·9%] of 804). Factors associated with being less likely to report full recovery at 1 year were female sex (odds ratio 0·68 [95% CI 0·46-0·99]), obesity (0·50 [0·34-0·74]) and invasive mechanical ventilation (0·42 [0·23-0·76]). Cluster analysis (n=1636) corroborated the previously reported four clusters: very severe, severe, moderate with cognitive impairment, and mild, relating to the severity of physical health, mental health, and cognitive impairment at 5 months. We found increased inflammatory mediators of tissue damage and repair in both the very severe and the moderate with cognitive impairment clusters compared with the mild cluster, including IL-6 concentration, which was increased in both comparisons (n=626 participants). We found a substantial deficit in median EQ-5D-5L utility index from before COVID-19 (retrospective assessment; 0·88 [IQR 0·74-1·00]), at 5 months (0·74 [0·64-0·88]) to 1 year (0·75 [0·62-0·88]), with minimal improvements across all outcome measures at 1 year after discharge in the whole cohort and within each of the four clusters. INTERPRETATION The sequelae of a hospital admission with COVID-19 were substantial 1 year after discharge across a range of health domains, with the minority in our cohort feeling fully recovered. Patient-perceived health-related quality of life was reduced at 1 year compared with before hospital admission. Systematic inflammation and obesity are potential treatable traits that warrant further investigation in clinical trials.

Abstract
The Concise Guide to PHARMACOLOGY 2021/22 is the fifth in this series of biennial publications. The Concise Guide provides concise overviews, mostly in tabular format, of the key properties of nearly 1900 human drug targets with an emphasis on selective pharmacology (where available), plus links to the open access knowledgebase source of drug targets and their ligands (www.guidetopharmacology.org), which provides more detailed views of target and ligand properties. Although the Concise Guide constitutes over 500 pages, the material presented is substantially reduced compared to information and links presented on the website. It provides a permanent, citable, point‐in‐time record that will survive database updates. The full contents of this section can be found at http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/bph.15537. In addition to this overview, in which are identified ‘Other protein targets’ which fall outside of the subsequent categorisation, there are six areas of focus: G protein‐coupled receptors, ion channels, nuclear hormone receptors, catalytic receptors, enzymes and transporters. These are presented with nomenclature guidance and summary information on the best available pharmacological tools, alongside key references and suggestions for further reading. The landscape format of the Concise Guide is designed to facilitate comparison of related targets from material contemporary to mid‐2021, and supersedes data presented in the 2019/20, 2017/18, 2015/16 and 2013/14 Concise Guides and previous Guides to Receptors and Channels. It is produced in close conjunction with the Nomenclature and Standards Committee of the International Union of Basic and Clinical Pharmacology (NC‐IUPHAR), therefore, providing official IUPHAR classification and nomenclature for human drug targets, where appropriate.

Abstract
Context: Emphysematous pyelonephritis (EPN) is a dangerous necrotizing infection of the kidney involving the diabetics with a high case fatality rate. Recent medical literature has shown shifting of treatment strategy from conventional radical approach to minimally invasive approach. Aims: The aim of our study was to assess the role of minimally invasive stepwise decompression techniques in the management of EPN and preservation of the renal unit. Settings and Design : This was a retrospective observational study conducted from June 2017 to April 2020 at a tertiary care centre. Material and Methods: We reviewed the hospital online records of 18 patients diagnosed with EPN for patient demographics, clinical profiles, co-morbidities, laboratory and, radiological investigations, surgical interventions performed and the outcomes. The severity of EPN was graded as per the Huang classification. Patients underwent surgical interventions as per the treatment protocol and response was assessed. Statistical Analysis Used: Descriptive statistics was applied. Results: Diabetes mellitus was present in 15 (83.3%) patients along with urinary tract obstruction in 8 (44.4%) patients. Flank pain (77.7%) was the most common presenting clinical feature while Escherichia coli (55.5%) were the most common causative organism. Most patients (50%) had Type- II EPN, all of which were managed successfully by minimally invasive procedures. In total seventeen patients (94.4%) responded well while one patient (5.5%) underwent nephrectomy with no mortality. Conclusions: Renal salvage in EPN requires multidisciplinary approach including the initial medical management followed by properly selected stepwise decompressive surgical techniques. Conservative management and decompression techniques have shown to improve patient's outcome, reducing the traditional morbidity associated with nephrectomy.

Abstract
MomConnect is a national initiative coordinated by the South African National Department of Health that sends text-based mobile phone messages free of charge to pregnant women who voluntarily register at any public healthcare facility in South Africa. We describe the system design and architecture of the MomConnect technical platform, planned as a nationally scalable and extensible initiative. It uses a health information exchange that can connect any standards-compliant electronic front-end application to any standards-compliant electronic back-end database. The implementation of the MomConnect technical platform, in turn, is a national reference application for electronic interoperability in line with the South African National Health Normative Standards Framework. The use of open content and messaging standards enables the architecture to include any application adhering to the selected standards. Its national implementation at scale demonstrates both the use of this technology and a key objective of global health information systems, which is to achieve implementation scale. The system’s limited clinical information, initially, allowed the architecture to focus on the base standards and profiles for interoperability in a resource-constrained environment with limited connectivity and infrastructural capacity. Maintenance of the system requires mobilisation of national resources. Future work aims to use the standard interfaces to include data from additional applications as well as to extend and interface the framework with other public health information systems in South Africa. The development of this platform has also shown the benefits of interoperability at both an organisational and technical level in South Africa.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To define molecular mechanisms underlying the clinical spectrum of epilepsy and movement disorder in individuals with de novo mutations in the GNAO1 gene. METHODS We identified all GNAO1 mutations reported in individuals with epilepsy (early infantile epileptiform encephalopathy 17) or movement disorders through April 2016; 15 de novo mutant alleles from 25 individuals were introduced into the Gαo subunit by site-directed mutagenesis in a mammalian expression plasmid. We assessed protein expression and function in vitro in HEK-293T cells by Western blot and determined functional Gαo-dependent cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) inhibition with a coexpressed α2A adrenergic receptor. RESULTS Of the 15 clinical GNAO1 mutations studied, 9 show reduced expression and loss of function (LOF; <90% maximal inhibition). Six other mutations show variable levels of expression but exhibit normal or even gain-of-function (GOF) behavior, as demonstrated by significantly lower EC50 values for α2A adrenergic receptor-mediated inhibition of cAMP. The GNAO1 LOF mutations are associated with epileptic encephalopathy while GOF mutants (such as G42R, G203R, and E246K) or normally functioning mutants (R209) were found in patients with movement disorders with or without seizures. CONCLUSIONS Both LOF and GOF mutations in Gαo (encoded by GNAO1) are associated with neurologic pathophysiology. There appears to be a strong predictive correlation between the in vitro biochemical phenotype and the clinical pattern of epilepsy vs movement disorder.

Abstract
Seed oils have proved recalcitrant to modification for the production of industrially useful lipids. Here, we demonstrate the successful metabolic engineering and subsequent field production of an oilseed crop with the highest accumulation of unusual oil achieved so far in transgenic plants. Previously, expression of the Euonymus alatus diacylglycerol acetyltransferase (EaDAcT) gene in wild-type Arabidopsis seeds resulted in the accumulation of 45 mol% of unusual 3-acetyl-1,2-diacyl-sn-glycerols (acetyl-TAGs) in the seed oil (Durrett et al., 2010 PNAS 107:9464). Expression of EaDAcT in dgat1 mutants compromised in their ability to synthesize regular triacylglycerols increased acetyl-TAGs to 65 mol%. Camelina and soybean transformed with the EaDAcT gene accumulate acetyl-triacylglycerols (acetyl-TAGs) at up to 70 mol% of seed oil. A similar strategy of coexpression of EaDAcT together with RNAi suppression of DGAT1 increased acetyl-TAG levels to up to 85 mol% in field-grown transgenic Camelina. Additionally, total moles of triacylglycerol (TAG) per seed increased 20%. Analysis of the acetyl-TAG fraction revealed a twofold reduction in very long chain fatty acids (VLCFA), consistent with their displacement from the sn-3 position by acetate. Seed germination remained high, and seedlings were able to metabolize the stored acetyl-TAGs as rapidly as regular triacylglycerols. Viscosity, freezing point and caloric content of the Camelina acetyl-TAG oils were reduced, enabling use of this oil in several nonfood and food applications.

Abstract
We have constructed and annotated a web-based database of over 280 Arabidopsis genes that have characterized mutants associated with Arabidopsis acyl lipid metabolism. Mutants have played a fundamental role in gene discovery and in understanding the function of genes involved in plant acyl lipid metabolism. The first mutant in Arabidopsis lipid metabolism (fad4) was described in 1985. Since that time, characterization of mutants in more than 280 genes associated with acyl lipid metabolism has been reported. This review provides a brief background and history on identification of mutants in acyl lipid metabolism, an analysis of the distribution of mutants in different areas of acyl lipid metabolism and presents an annotated database (ARALIPmutantDB) of these mutants. The database provides information on the phenotypes of mutants, pathways and enzymes/proteins associated with the mutants, and allows rapid access via hyperlinks to summaries of information about each mutant and to literature that provides information on the lipid composition of the mutants. In addition, the database of mutants is integrated within the ARALIP plant acyl lipid metabolism website ( http://aralip.plantbiology.msu.edu ) so that information on mutants is displayed on and can be accessed from metabolic pathway maps. Mutants for at least 30% of the genes in the database have multiple names, which have been compiled here to reduce ambiguities in searches for information. The database should also provide a tool for exploring the relationships between mutants in acyl lipid-related genes and their lipid phenotypes and point to opportunities for further research.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The aims of our study were to identify serum biomarkers that distinguish pancreatic cancer (pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, PDAC) patients from benign pancreatic disease patients and healthy subjects, and to assess the effects of jaundice on biomarker performance. METHODS Isobaric tags for relative and absolute quantification were used to compare pooled serum and pancreatic juice samples from a test set of 59 and 25 subjects, respectively. Validation was undertaken in 113 independent subjects. RESULTS Candidate proteins Complement C5, inter-α-trypsin inhibitor heavy chain H3, α1-β glycoprotein and polymeric immunoglobulin receptor were elevated in cancer, as were the reference markers CA19-9 and Reg3A. Biliary obstruction had a significant effect on the performance of the markers, in particular within the PDAC group where the presence of jaundice was associated with a significant increase in the levels of all six proteins (P<0.01). Consequently, in the absence of jaundice, proteins showed reduced sensitivity for PDAC patients over benign subjects and healthy controls (HCs). Similarly, in the presence of jaundice, markers showed reduced specificity for PDAC patients over benign subjects with jaundice. Combining markers enabled improved sensitivity for non-jaundiced PDAC patients over HCs and improved specificity for jaundiced PDAC patients over jaundiced benign disease subjects. CONCLUSIONS The presence-absence of jaundice in the clinical scenario severely impacts the performance of biomarkers for PDAC diagnosis and has implications for their clinical translation.

Abstract
Atypical antipsychotics are effective; so are selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), and they may be safer. Atypical antipsychotics are an effective short-term (6-12 weeks) treatment for aggressive behavior in patients with Alzheimer's disease because they consistently decrease aggression scores (strength of recommendation [SOR]: A, multiple randomized controlled trials [RCTs]). However, evidence of drug-related deaths in patients taking these drugs mandates weighing the benefits against the risks. SSRIs may be a safer, effective alternative (SOR: B, limited studies).

Abstract
2508 Background: CTLA-4 is an costimulatory molecule expressed on activated T cells that delivers an inhibitory signal to these T cells. CTLA-4 blockade with antibody treatment augments T cell responses and anti-tumor immunity in animal models. Clinical trials with anti-CTLA-4 antibody treatment have demonstrated clinical responses in different malignancies including melanoma and hormone-refractory prostate cancer (HRPC). We have also shown that administration of granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) can also induce PSA declines in HRPC patients, presumably through enhancing presentation of endogenous antigens. The current study examines whether combining systemic GM-CSF to CTLA-4 blockade can augment immune and/or clinical responses in HRPC patients. Methods: In a phase I trial of patients with metastatic HRPC, sequential cohorts of 3–6 patients received GM-CSF (sargramostim, Berlex) 250 mg/m2/d SC on days 1–14 of a 28-day cycle with escalating doses (0.5, 1.5 or 3 mg/kg) of ipilimumab (MDX-010), a fully human anti-CTLA antibody (Medarex/BMS), given IV on day 1 of each cycle x 4 cycles. Patients were monitored for toxicity as well as for T cell activation. PSA and radiographic tests were performed at baseline and through therapy to evaluate for clinical response. Results: 18 patients were accrued. Ipilimumab-related dose-limiting toxicity was limited to one patient with grade 3 rash at the 3 mg/kg priming dose level. Seven patients had <50% declines in their serum PSA levels. A dose response relationship was seen between ipilimumab dose and activation of both CD4 and CD8 T cells in the blood. These effects were increased compared to effects seen with ipilimumab treatment alone in prior studies. Interferon-gamma production and lytic activity were also enhanced in circulating antigen-specific CD8+ T cells by the combination. Conclusions: GM-CSF may enhance T cell activation induced by CTLA-4 blockade. With increasing doses of anti-CTLA-4, both CD4 and CD8 T cell activation can be detected in the blood, consistent with a dose-response relationship. Supported by the UCSF Prostate SPORE NIH P50 CA89520. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

Abstract
Health services are increasingly under pressure to develop information systems that are responsive to changing health needs and appropriate to service objectives. Developing an essential data set provides managers with a clearly defined set of indicators for monitoring and evaluating services. This article describes a process that resulted in the creation of an essential data set at district level. This had a significant impact on neighbouring districts and resulted in the development of a regional essential data set, which in turn helped to influence the creation of a provincial and then national essential data set. Four key lessons may be drawn from the process. The development of an essential data set both requires and can contribute to a process that allows the reporting requirements to be adjusted over time in response to changing circumstances. In addition, it contributes to (and requires) the integration of programme reporting requirements into a coherent information system. While the case study describes a bottom-up approach, a top-down consultative process is advocated because it establishes a framework within which information needs can be reviewed. Lastly, the use of surveys can aid efforts to keep the essential elements to a minimum. In conclusion, the development of an essential data set contributes to strengthening health services because it necessitates dialogue between programme managers and defines indicators to be monitored by them.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Interview assessments of surgical residency candidates may be biased by prior knowledge of objective data. METHODS Each candidate (site 1: n = 88; site 2: n = 44) underwent two interviews, one by faculty members informed only of a candidate's medical school, the second with prior knowledge of the complete application. Interviewers (site 1: n = 28; site 2: n = 14) independently rated candidates overall and on nine qualitative characteristics. RESULTS At site 1 only, overall ratings were significantly more favorable for unblinded than blinded interviews (23.0 +/- 17.7 versus 32.6 +/- 23.1, P < 0.01). Blinded and unblinded overall ratings correlated -0.01 (P = 0.90) and 0.31 (P = 0.05) at sites 1 and 2, respectively. At site 1 only, overall ratings correlated significantly with USMLE scores, but in opposite directions for blinded (r = 0.32, P = 0.003) versus unblinded interviews (r = -0.32, P = 0.003). CONCLUSION Interview assessments may be influenced by objective data, and faculty and program variables. The value of blinded interviewing may vary as a function of individual program characteristics.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We aimed to assess the outcome and growth of infants with severe chronic renal failure (CRF). One hundred and one children presented between January 1, 1986, and December 12, 1998, with a glomerular filtration rate (GFR) of <20 mL/min/1.73 m2. The median (range) age at presentation was 0.3 (0 to 1.5) years, and follow-up was 7.6 (1.5 to 13) years. One- and five-year survival rates were 87 and 78%, respectively. The growth of the 81 children who survived over two years was evaluated. Eighty-one percent were enterally fed from age 0.7 (0 to 4.5) years for 1.9 (0.1 to 6.8) years. Forty-six percent had a gastrostomy, and 22% a Nissen fundoplication. Twenty-five were managed conservatively. Twenty were transplanted without dialysis at age 4 (1.7 to 8.5) years, and 36 were dialyzed at age 1.1 (0 to 9.8) before transplantation at age 2. 4 (1.3 to 10) years. RESULTS The mean (SD) height standard deviation score increased from -2.16 (1.34) at 6 months (N = 63) to -1.97 (1.37) at 1 year (N = 75), -1.79 (1.29) at 2 years (N = 75), -1.33 (1.29) at 3 years (N = 68, P = 0.0006), -1.27 (1.04) at 5 years (N = 47, P = 0.0001), and -0.85 (0.82) at 10 years (N = 18, P = 0.001). The body mass index was in the normal range in the majority of patients. CONCLUSION Mortality in infants with CRF occurs mainly in the first year of life. With early enteral feeding, the mean height standard deviation score is within the normal range from one year of age.

Abstract
An inadequate nutritional intake is common in infants and young children with chronic and end-stage renal failure (CRF/ESRF), causing poor weight gain and growth retardation. In a programme of enteral feeding (EF), growth, nutritional intake and outcome for oral feeding were evaluated in 35 children with CRF/ESRF, mean (range) age 1.6 (0-4.9) years at start of EF for 30 (12-60) months. Twenty-nine had a glomerular filtration rate of 12.1 (6-26) ml/min per 1.73 m(2) and 6 were on peritoneal dialysis. Mean (SD) weight standard deviation scores (SDSs) in the 0 to 2-year age group (n=26) were -3.3 (1.0) 6 months before EF, -3.1 (1.3) at the start, -1.7 (1. 4) at 1 year, (P=0.0003) and -1.4 (1.8) at 2 years, (P=0.0008). Height SDSs were -2.9 (0.7), -2.9 (1.2), -2.2 (1.2) (P=0.008) and -2. 1 (1.3) (P=0.004). Weight SDSs in the 2 to 5-year age group (n=9) were -2.3 (1.2), -2.0 (1.1), -1.1 (1.3) (P=0.002) and -0.9 (1.0) (P=0.04). Height SDSs were -2.8 (0.6), -2.3 (0.7), -2.0 (0.7) and -2. 0 (0.8). There was no change in energy intake as a percentage of the estimated average requirement, nor was this exceeded. Percentage energy from the EF in the 0 to 2 year age group remained unchanged despite an absolute increase in energy intake with age. Twenty-one have had renal transplants, of whom 86% eat and drink normally. Long-term EF prevents or reverses weight loss and growth retardation in children with CRF/ESRF, with the achievement of significant catch-up growth if started before age 2 years.

Abstract
Lesbians face unique barriers to health care, and may be at higher risk for breast cancer than are other women. Yet, no research on lesbians and mammography utilization exists. We conducted telephone interviews of 107 lesbians aged 51-80, of whom 68 had had mammograms in the last year and 39 had not. Responses to open-ended questions identified the barriers lesbians face in obtaining mammography, lesbians, reasons for obtaining mammograms, and factors that would help lesbians obtain mammograms. Some issues identified were particular to lesbians; many issues were common to those identified by general samples of women (which include lesbians).

Abstract
This article discusses the nutritional management of children with chronic renal failure and renal replacement therapy. It is important to remember that there is no set diet for the treatment of renal disease. Diets are prescribed for each individual child and must be reviewed regularly.

Abstract
The anorexia of chronic renal failure (CRF) is frequently managed with enteral feeds using combinations of commercial preparations, glucose polymers and fat emulsions. Such feeds might predispose to atherogenic blood lipid profiles. Our aim, therefore, was to compare the blood lipid profiles of enterally fed and non-enterally fed children. Plasma lipid subfractions were measured in 37 children with CRF managed conservatively and 10 managed with peritoneal dialysis (PD); 10 of the children were tube fed, 5 of whom were on PD. Results were compared between these groups. Overall, triglycerides (TGs, mean +/- SD) were high (2.3 +/- 1.4 mmol/l) and total cholesterol (TC) was at the upper limit of normal (5.2 +/- 1.5 mmol/l). Low-density lipoprotein (LDL), high-density lipoprotein (HDL), apoprotein A1 (apo A1), A2 (apo A2) and B (apo B), and lipoprotein (a) [Lp(a)] were within the normal range. There was an inverse correlation between TGs and glomerular filtration rate (P = 0.0001). There were no differences in the levels of TC, TG, LDL, HDL, apo A1, apo A2 or Lp(a) between tube-fed and non-tube-fed children. We conclude that enteral feeding does not enhance hyperlipidaemia.

Abstract
Patients with traumatic brain injury currently constitute a major portion of the rehabilitation population. Although agitated, restless, and wandering behavior is an expected stage in the recovery process of these patients, issues involving the patient's and the staff's safety can arise when these behaviors are excessive and hard to control. In addition, patients may have difficulty achieving their rehabilitation goals because of these behaviors. One-on-one supervision, specialized interventions, and a structured approach often are necessary and beneficial if patients are to achieve rehabilitation goals. The facility described in this article has a large population of patients with head injury who require one-on-one supervision. Guidelines for the nursing management of two different patient populations that required two different interdisciplinary approaches were developed and established.

Abstract
The pineal hormone melatonin plays a role in the regulation of hypothalamic-pituitary axis, target gland function, sleep pattern, mood changes, cellular immunity, antibody response, and skin pigmentation, nearly all of which are also affected by renal insufficiency. We measured serum melatonin and its main urinary metabolite, 6-sulfatoxymelatonin (6-SM), by radioimmunoassay in 11 patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) between the hours of 6 and 9 a.m. during hemodialysis and again on an off-dialysis day. The results were compared with those obtained in a group of normal control subjects. Predialysis serum melatonin and 6-SM levels obtained at 6 a.m. in the ESRD patients were comparable with those obtained in the normal control group. Serum melatonin concentration in the ESRD group fell approximately 25% during dialysis while 6-SM remained virtually unchanged. The changes observed on the off-dialysis day during the same time period were of nearly the same magnitude as those seen during dialysis (-32% and 1.4%, respectively). No significant difference was found in the concentration of either analyte in the blood entering and leaving the dialyzer. These observations suggest a lack of discernible removal of either compound by hemodialysis. In contrast to the ESRD patients, who showed a slow fall in serum melatonin and no significant change in serum 6-SM on both on- and off-dialysis days, the normal control subjects showed an expected reduction in serum melatonin (-43%) and a sharp fall in serum 6-SM (-53%) between 6 and 9 a.m.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
Eighteen patients with disseminated AIDS-related Kaposi's sarcoma (KS) and compromised bone marrow function were treated with a relatively non-myelosuppressive regimen of bleomycin and vincristine (BV). At study entry, the patients presented with the following median laboratory values: hemoglobin of 9.5 g/dl, granulocyte counts of 1,173/mm3, platelet counts of 218,000/mm3, and CD4 lymphocyte counts of 58/mm3. All patients had extensive Kaposi's sarcoma. Nine patients had visceral involvement: four with pulmonary involvement, two with gastrointestinal involvement, and three with both. Following a median number of seven cycles of biweekly chemotherapy, complete or partial tumor responses were achieved in 13 patients (72%). Two patients experienced bleomycin-induced skin toxicities, whereas 10 others (55%) experienced peripheral sensory neuropathy requiring vincristine dose reductions. Opportunistic infections had occurred in 11 patients prior to initiation of chemotherapy and in 16 after initiation of chemotherapy. Despite the frequent development of opportunistic infections, BV chemotherapy was relatively well tolerated and resulted in a high response rate in this patient population that presented with suboptimal marrow function and extremely low CD4 lymphocyte counts.

Abstract
In this prospective study, we investigated the relationship between dietary practices and pregnancy discomforts among 50 urban black American women during their first and third trimesters of pregnancy. Subjects were interviewed during their regular prenatal clinic visits for information about their previous 24-hour dietary intake, the presence and severity of pregnancy discomforts occurring in the previous month, and pertinent demographic data. Findings indicated that high intake of meat products but low or no intake of vegetables was correlated with nausea, little or no intake of milk products was correlated with heartburn, and low or no intake of citrus fruit but intake of vitamin and iron supplements was correlated with heartburn, constipation, and sleeping difficulty. Replication of the study with a larger sample is warranted so as to provide further validity to the findings.
