Abstract
BACKGROUND Substance use disorders (SUD) are among the most prevalent psychiatric disorders, with high illness costs. A disturbed balance between frontostriatal and stress brain circuitry influences the development of SUD, its continuation, and vulnerability for relapse. AIM To provide a concise overview of neural networks in SUD, and discuss implications for clinical practice. METHOD Narrative literature review on neurobiological mechanisms of neural networks in substance use disorders. RESULTS Changes in frontostriatal circuitry play an important role for sensitivity to substance-related rewards, and can lead to loss of control over substance use. On the other hand, the use of substances affects the brain’s stress system, which affects frontostriatal network functioning. Substance use can activate stress circuitry in the brain, which can lead to an increase in use or relapse. The level at which neural network functioning is affected can differ highly between persons with SUD, and is dependent on the SUD stage and the presence of other psychiatric comorbidity. CONCLUSION Improved understanding of neural networks involved in SUD can lead to the development of new and more personalized treatment- and prevention strategies. Insights in neural networks also provide a transdiagnostic view from which to understand the phenomenological overlap between psychiatric disorders and frequent comorbidity.

Abstract
Neutron capture reaction cross sections on 74 Ge are of importance to determine 74 Ge production during the astrophysical slow neutron capture process. We present new resonance data on 74 Ge( n , γ ) reactions below 70 keV neutron energy. We calculate Maxwellian averaged cross sections, combining our data below 70 keV with evaluated cross sections at higher neutron energies. Our stellar cross sections are in agreement with a previous activation measurement performed at Forschungszentrum Karlsruhe by Marganiec et al., once their data has been re-normalised to account for an update in the reference cross section used in that experiment.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Gestational hypoxia can lead to intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) and programming of cardiovascular diseases in adulthood via different, although not completely understood, epigenetic mechanisms. We have previously shown that reactive oxygen species (ROS) derived from NADPH oxidases contribute to hypoxia induced pulmonary hypertension (PH). However, their role in disease programming by gestational hypoxia is not resolved.
Purpose
We aimed to elucidate the role of NADPH oxidases and redox sensitive miRNAs in the cardiovascular response of adult offspring to transient gestational hypoxia.
Methods
Wildtype (WT) and nmf333 mice, lacking a functional p22phox dependent NADPH oxidase, were exposed to gestational hypoxia from E10.5 to E11.5. Embryos and adult offspring were analyzed by functional, immunohistochemical and molecular methods including mRNA and miRNA profiling. miRNA mimics or inhibitors were applied in vivo and in vitro using embryoid bodies (EBs). Heart samples from patients with right heart disease associated with congenital heart disease (CHD) were used to validate target miRNA expression.
Results
Transient gestational hypoxia was sufficient to induce IUGR in embryos and pulmonary hypertension (PH) characterized by right ventricular hypertrophy, increased right ventricular pressure and pulmonary vascular remodeling in adult offspring from WT mice while p22phox-deficient nmf333 mice were protected. Cardiac mRNA and miRNA profiling followed by qPCR validation identified several single miRNAs derived from the 17/92 miRNA cluster as downregulated by gestational hypoxia and NADPH oxidases in embryos and adult offspring hearts. In vitro analyses using EBs validated a single miRNA from this cluster to be sufficient to induce cardiac differentiation in response to hypoxia and p22phox, and target analyses identified the mTOR pathway as dysregulated. Treatment with an inhibitor targeting this miRNA was sufficient to induce PH in adult mice, while treating offspring derived from gestational hypoxia pregnancies with an miRNA mimic prevented the development of PH in the adult and dysregulation of the mTOR pathway. Importantly, expression of this single miRNA from the miRNA 17/92 cluster was negatively correlated to right ventricular pressure in CHD patients.
Conclusions
In this study, we demonstrate that gestational hypoxia programs PH in adulthood by upregulating NADPH oxidases and downregulating miRNAs derived from the 17/92 cluster subsequently affecting the mTOR pathway. Since dysregulation of a single miRNA from this cluster induced not only PH but was also associated with right ventricular pressure in CHD patients, these findings might open novel options for diagnosis, prevention and treatment of right heart disease.

Abstract
The widespread occurrence and significance of chiral compounds does not only require new methods for their enantioselective synthesis but also efficient tools that allow rapid determination of the absolute configuration, enantiomeric composition and overall concentration of nonracemic mixtures. Although chiral analysis is a frequently encountered challenge in the chemical, environmental, materials and health sciences it is typically addressed with slow and laborious chromatographic or NMR spectroscopic techniques. We now show with almost 40 analytes representing 5 different compound classes, including mono-alcohols which are particularly challenging sensing targets, that this task can be solved very quickly by chiroptical sensing with a single, readily available arylisocyanate probe. The probe reacts smoothly and irreversibly with amino and alcohol groups when an organocatalyst is used at room temperature toward urea or carbamate products exhibiting characteristic UV and CD signals above 300 nm. The UV signal induction is not enantioselective and correlated to the total concentration of both enantiomers, the concomitant generation of a CD band allows determination of the enantiomeric composition from the same sample, and the sense of the induced Cotton effect reveals the absolute configuration by comparison with a reference. This approach eliminates complications that can arise when enantiomerically impure NMR derivatizing agents are used and it outperforms time-consuming HPLC protocols. The generation of distinct UV and CD signals at high wavelengths overcomes issues with insufficient resolution of overlapping signals often encountered with chiral NMR solvating agents that rely on weak binding forces. The broad solvent compatibility is another noteworthy and important characteristic of this assay. It addresses frequently encountered problems with insufficient solubility of polar analytes, for example pharmaceuticals, in standard mobile phase mixtures required for chiral HPLC analysis. We anticipate that the broad application spectrum, ruggedness and practicality of organocatalytic chiroptical sensing with aryliso(thio)cyanate probes together with the availability of automated CD multi-well plate readers carry exceptional promise to accelerate chiral compound development projects at reduced cost and with less waste production. Organocatalysis with a simple arylisocyanate probe enables accelerated optical concentration and enantiomeric ratio determination of a large variety of chiral compounds based on straightforward UV/CD analysis.![]()

Abstract
The neutron capture cross sections of several unstable nuclides acting as branching points in the s process are crucial for stellar nucleosynthesis studies. The unstable ^{171}Tm (t_{1/2}=1.92 yr) is part of the branching around mass A∼170 but its neutron capture cross section as a function of the neutron energy is not known to date. In this work, following the production for the first time of more than 5 mg of ^{171}Tm at the high-flux reactor Institut Laue-Langevin in France, a sample was produced at the Paul Scherrer Institute in Switzerland. Two complementary experiments were carried out at the neutron time-of-flight facility (n_TOF) at CERN in Switzerland and at the SARAF liquid lithium target facility at Soreq Nuclear Research Center in Israel by time of flight and activation, respectively. The result of the time-of-flight experiment consists of the first ever set of resonance parameters and the corresponding average resonance parameters, allowing us to make an estimation of the Maxwellian-averaged cross sections (MACS) by extrapolation. The activation measurement provides a direct and more precise measurement of the MACS at 30 keV: 384(40) mb, with which the estimation from the n_TOF data agree at the limit of 1 standard deviation. This value is 2.6 times lower than the JEFF-3.3 and ENDF/B-VIII evaluations, 25% lower than that of the Bao et al. compilation, and 1.6 times larger than the value recommended in the KADoNiS (v1) database, based on the only previous experiment. Our result affects the nucleosynthesis at the A∼170 branching, namely, the ^{171}Yb abundance increases in the material lost by asymptotic giant branch stars, providing a better match to the available pre-solar SiC grain measurements compared to the calculations based on the current JEFF-3.3 model-based evaluation.

Abstract
Background In chronic diseases such as multiple sclerosis requiring lifelong treatment,
studies on long-term outcomes are important. Objective To assess disability and magnetic resonance imaging-related outcomes in
relapsing multiple sclerosis patients from a Phase 2 study of fingolimod 10
or more years after randomization and to compare outcomes in patients who
had a higher fingolimod exposure versus those with a lower fingolimod
exposure. Methods ACROSS was a cross-sectional follow-up study of patients originally enrolled
in a Phase 2 fingolimod proof-of-concept study (NCT00333138). Disability and
magnetic resonance imaging-related outcomes were assessed in patients
grouped according to fingolimod treatment duration, based on an arbitrary
cut-off: ≥8 years (high exposure) and <8 years (low exposure). Results Overall, 175/281 (62%) patients participated in ACROSS; 104 (59%) of these
were classified “high exposure.” At 10 years, patients in the high-exposure
group had smaller increases in Expanded Disability Status Scale (+0.55 vs.
+1.21), and lower frequencies of disability progression (34.7% vs. 56.1%),
wheelchair use (4.8% vs. 16.9%), or transition to secondary progressive
multiple sclerosis (9.6% vs. 22.5%) than those in the low-exposure group.
The high-exposure patients also had less progression in most magnetic
resonance imaging-related outcomes. Conclusion After 10 years of fingolimod treatment, disability progression was lower in
the high-exposure group than in the low-exposure group.

Abstract
Background Patients with breast cancer (BC) show strong interest in complementary and alternative medicine (CAM), particularly for adverse effects of adjuvant endocrine treatment — e.g., with letrozole. Letrozole often induces myalgia/limb pain and arthralgia, with potential noncompliance and treatment termination. This analysis investigated whether CAM before aromatase inhibitor (AI) therapy is associated with pain development and the intensity of AI-induced musculoskeletal syndrome (AIMSS) during the first year of treatment. Patients and methods The multicenter phase IV PreFace study evaluated letrozole therapy in postmenopausal, hormone receptor–positive patients with early BC. Patients were asked about CAM use before, 6 months after, and 12 months after treatment started. They recorded pain every month for 1 year in a diary including questions about pain and numeric pain rating scales. Data were analyzed for patients who provided pain information for all time points. Results Of 1396 patients included, 901 (64.5%) had used CAM before AI treatment. Throughout the observation period, patients with CAM before AI treatment had higher pain values, for both myalgia/limb pain and arthralgia, than non-users. Pain increased significantly in both groups over time, with the largest increase during the first 6 months. No significant difference of pain increase was noted regarding CAM use. Conclusions CAM use does not prevent or improve the development of AIMSS. Pain intensity was generally greater in the CAM group. Therefore, because of the risk of non-compliance and treatment discontinuation due to the development of higher pain levels, special attention must be paid to patient education and aftercare in these patients. Pain levels of myalgia/limb pain and arthralgia increase under letrozole intake. Within one year pain levels increase in both, CAM users as well as non-CAM users. In CAM users pain levels were higher at all time points than in non-CAM users. The greatest increase of pain levels was noted in the first six treatment months. CAM does not prevent or improve the development of myalgia/limb pain and arthralgia.

Abstract
The design and operation of innovative nuclear systems requires a better knowledge of the capture and fission cross sections of the Pu isotopes. For the case of capture on 242Pu, a reduction of the uncertainty in the fast region down to 8-12% is required. Moreover, aiming at improving the evaluation of the fast energy range in terms of average parameters, the OECD NEA High Priority Request List (HPRL) requests high-resolution capture measurements with improved accuracy below 2 keV. The current uncertainties also affect the thermal point, where previous experiments deviate from each other by 20%. A fruitful collaboration betwen JGU Mainz and HZ Dresden-Rossendorf within the EC CHANDA project resulted in a 242Pu sample consisting of a stack of seven fission-like targets making a total of 95(4) mg of 242Pu electrodeposited on thin (11.5 μm) aluminum backings. This contribution presents the results of a set of measurements of the 242Pu(n, γ) cross section from thermal to 500 keV combining different neutron beams and techniques. The thermal point was determined at the Budapest Research Reactor by means of Neutron Activation Analysis and Prompt Gamma Analysis, and the resolved (1 eV - 4 keV) and unresolved (1 - 500 keV) resonance regions were measured using a set of four Total Energy detectors at the CERN n_TOF-EAR1.

Abstract
Abstract
An interlaboratory trial was conducted for the validation of an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) method for determination of appropriate heat treatment of animal meal. A commercially available ELISA test kit developed for the identification of beef in cooked food was used in the study. Twelve laboratories from 7 European countries examined 2 different analytical protocols to establish the most appropriate analytical method. Three different samples were used, 2 animal waste materials sterilized at 129 and 134°C (wet conditions), respectively, and a meat and bone meal material processed at dry conditions (maximum temperature, 140°C). Statistical evaluation applying t-statistics showed that the animal meal treated according to European legislation (>133°C) was clearly distinguishable from the 2 other test materials at a 99% confidence level using both analytical protocols. This method can be considered as a complementary test to the immunoassay developed for the detection of pork in cooked food that is already applied in routine analysis for the surveillance of rendering plants.

Abstract
Glatiramer acetate is indicated for the treatment of patients with relapsing forms of multiple sclerosis (RMS). In 2016, an alternative to the originator product was approved in the EU through the hybrid procedure regulatory pathway. This paper reviews the scientifically rigorous and multifaceted program undertaken to demonstrate the equivalence of this glatiramer acetate follow-on product (GTR) and the reference product Copaxone®, which resulted in the EU approval of GTR 20 mg/mL and 40 mg/mL. Establishing therapeutic equivalence for non-biological complex drugs is not trivial and requires a complex and multidisciplinary effort. Ultimately, there is not a single test or study that establishes therapeutic equivalence of two heterogeneous products. Instead, it requires a good understanding of the synthesis process together with a full set of data that includes comparative physicochemical testing, nonclinical in vitro and in vivo studies, and a comparative clinical study to allow for a valid conclusion that two products are therapeutically equivalent. The detailed understanding of glatiramer's synthesis process and its impact on the characteristics of glatiramer, combined with the results of a scientifically rigorous and multifaceted physicochemical and biological characterization program, and the clinical data from the 794-patient Phase III GATE study, demonstrate that GTR and Copaxone are therapeutically equivalent. The data further demonstrate that Synthon's manufacturing process consistently yields drug substance of the same quality as Copaxone and that switching from Copaxone to GTR is safe and well-tolerated.

Abstract
The ^{23}Al(p,γ)^{24}Si reaction is among the most important reactions driving the energy generation in type-I x-ray bursts. However, the present reaction-rate uncertainty limits constraints on neutron star properties that can be achieved with burst model-observation comparisons. Here, we present a novel technique for constraining this important reaction by combining the GRETINA array with the neutron detector LENDA coupled to the S800 spectrograph at the National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory. The ^{23}Al(d,n) reaction was used to populate the astrophysically important states in ^{24}Si. This enables a measurement in complete kinematics for extracting all relevant inputs necessary to calculate the reaction rate. For the first time, a predicted close-lying doublet of a 2_{2}^{+} and (4_{1}^{+},0_{2}^{+}) state in ^{24}Si was disentangled, finally resolving conflicting results from two previous measurements. Moreover, it was possible to extract spectroscopic factors using GRETINA and LENDA simultaneously. This new technique may be used to constrain other important reaction rates for various astrophysical scenarios.

Abstract
CLINICAL ISSUE Neurogenic myopathies are primary diseases of the nervous system, which secondarily result in denervation of the target musculature. The spectrum of potential causes is manifold ranging from acute traumatic injuries and chronic compression to neurodegenerative, inflammatory, metabolic and neoplastic processes. STANDARD DIAGNOSTIC METHODS The medical history, clinical neurological examination, and electrophysiological tests including electromyography and nerve conduction studies are crucial in diagnosing neuropathic myopathies. Electromyography is the gold standard for diagnosing muscle denervation. METHODICAL INNOVATIONS Additional imaging methods and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in particular, are capable of contributing valuable information. The MRI examination of denervated musculature shows edema, an increase in the apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) and hyperperfusion. Chronic denervation results in fatty degeneration and atrophy of affected muscles, which are also detectable by MRI. PERFORMANCE Although the MRI findings in muscle denervation are relatively unspecific, they show a high sensitivity, comparable to electromyography. Dedicated MR neurography may often visualize the underlying lesion(s) of the innervating nerve(s). ACHIEVEMENTS Besides high sensitivity, comparable to electromyography, MRI is capable of evaluating muscles which are inaccessible for needle electromyography. Due to its non-invasive character, MRI is ideal for follow-up examinations. PRACTICAL RECOMMENDATIONS The use of MRI is often a meaningful addition to the diagnostics of neurogenic myopathies. The extent and distribution pattern of muscular alterations often provide information on the localization of the causative nerve damage. A correct diagnosis or at least a narrowing down of possible differential diagnoses can often be achieved using MRI.

Abstract
Background Patients' compliance and persistence with endocrine treatment has a significant effect on the prognosis in early breast cancer (EBC). The purpose of this analysis was to identify possible reasons for non-persistence, defined as premature cessation of therapy, on the basis of patient and tumor characteristics in individuals receiving adjuvant treatment with letrozole. Patients and methods The EvAluate-TM study is a prospective, multicenter, noninterventional study in which treatment with the aromatase inhibitor letrozole was evaluated in postmenopausal women with hormone receptor-positive EBC in the early therapy phase. Treatment persistence was evaluated at two pre-specified study visits after 6 and 12 months. As a measure of early therapy persistence the time from the start to the end of treatment (TTEOT) was analyzed. Cox regression analyses were carried out to identify patient characteristics and tumor characteristics predicting TTEOT. Results Out of the total population of 3941 patients with EBC, 540 (13.7%) events involving treatment cessation unrelated to disease progression were observed. This was due to drug-related toxicity in the majority of cases (73.5%). Persistence rates were 92.2%, 86.9%, and 86.3% after 6, 12, and 15 months, respectively. The main factors influencing premature treatment discontinuation were older age [hazard ratio (HR) 1.02/year], comorbidities (HR 1.06 per comorbidity), low body mass index, and lower tumor grade (HR 0.85 per grade unit). Conclusion These results support the view that older, multimorbid patients with low tumor grade and low body mass index are at the greatest risk for treatment discontinuation and might benefit from compliance and support programs.

Abstract
In the present study, the effects of feeding 450 g/day of rumen-protected fish oil (FO) compared to sunflower oil (SO) to Angus heifers (60 g/kg total intake) were quantified. Animal performance was not affected whereas the physico-chemical meat quality, assessed in three muscles, was slightly affected by diet. The oxidative shelf life of the perirenal fat declined with FO compared to SO. Despite the formerly shown increased n-3 fatty acid proportions of meat due to FO supplementation, a trained sensory panel identified an only slightly more intense fishy flavour in grilled steaks and beef patties from the FO compared to the SO group. In FO compared to SO patties, flavour intensity was more pronounced. The perception of off-flavours was negligible and differences between muscles were larger than between diets. In conclusion, supplementing ruminants with FO containing nutritionally beneficial n-3 fatty acids results in few side-effects on meat quality, restricted to quite faint off-flavours and a shorter fat shelf life.

Abstract
We report the first measurement of low-energy proton-capture cross sections of ^{124}Xe in a heavy-ion storage ring. ^{124}Xe^{54+} ions of five different beam energies between 5.5 and 8 AMeV were stored to collide with a windowless hydrogen target. The ^{125}Cs reaction products were directly detected. The interaction energies are located on the high energy tail of the Gamow window for hot, explosive scenarios such as supernovae and x-ray binaries. The results serve as an important test of predicted astrophysical reaction rates in this mass range. Good agreement in the prediction of the astrophysically important proton width at low energy is found, with only a 30% difference between measurement and theory. Larger deviations are found above the neutron emission threshold, where also neutron and γ widths significantly impact the cross sections. The newly established experimental method is a very powerful tool to investigate nuclear reactions on rare ion beams at low center-of-mass energies.

Abstract
Abstract
Background:
Further progress in the treatment of breast cancer will likely come from contributions of molecular biology and immunologic approaches. The search for druggable molecular aberrations may enable treatment based on the molecular profile. A better identification of patients with a high risk of relapse facilitates the selection of these pts for clinical trials investigating early therapeutic molecular-based interventions.
Trial Design:
The BRandO BiO Registry is a multi-center regional registry to record clinical, epidemiological, and biological data from patients with newly diagnosed breast and ovarian cancer at the University of Ulm, Dept. of Gynecology and 19 affiliated network hospitals and practices in the Alb-Allgäu Bodensee region (outreach area of the Comprehensive Cancer Center Ulm). Longitudinal biobanking is included with collection of paraffin-embedded samples of the primary tumor as well as blood samples at first diagnosis, after 6 and 12 months and at first relapse to isolate and investigate cell-free and germline DNA. Epidemiological, life style and quality of life (QOL) questionnaires are collected at first diagnosis, after 12, 36 and 60 months. The follow up is planned for 10 years.
Eligibility criteria:
Patients with primary newly diagnosed untreated breast or ovarian cancer of ≥ 18 years are eligible; primary metastatic untreated disease is allowed. Exclusion criteria comprise severe neurological or psychiatric disorders interfering with the ability to give an informed consent, no consent for registration, storage and processing of the individual disease characteristics and bio samples, and any malignant tumor in the last 3 years (except in situ disease).
Specific aims:
To register the majority of patients with newly diagnosed breast or ovarian cancer in all BRandO-BiO participating centers of a well-defined geographical area. To assess clinical characteristics and outcome data (event-free survival, overall survival) of these patients. To evaluate the primary tumor of all patients for mutational (druggable) aberrations. Further to assess cell-free DNA in the serial blood samples at baseline, 6 and 12 months and correlate these results with clinical outcome data as well as tumor and patient characteristics to look for early markers predicting relapse. To perform a longitudinal assessment of the patients' sociodemographic factors, comorbidities, lifestyle and QOL factors by analyzing serial questionnaires collected at recruitment and at 12, 36 and 60 months.
Present accrual and target accrual:
The BRandO BiO Registry started January 2016 in the Dept. of Gynecology, University of Ulm and February 2017 at the network hospitals and practices. Until June 2018, 1180 patients with primary breast or ovarian cancer have been enrolled. The current adherence to serial blood testing and serial questionnaires is good with a return rate of 90%. A sample size of 3000 patients is planned.

Abstract
We report on the measurement of the ^{7}Be(n,p)^{7}Li cross section from thermal to approximately 325 keV neutron energy, performed in the high-flux experimental area (EAR2) of the n_TOF facility at CERN. This reaction plays a key role in the lithium yield of the big bang nucleosynthesis (BBN) for standard cosmology. The only two previous time-of-flight measurements performed on this reaction did not cover the energy window of interest for BBN, and they showed a large discrepancy between each other. The measurement was performed with a Si telescope and a high-purity sample produced by implantation of a ^{7}Be ion beam at the ISOLDE facility at CERN. While a significantly higher cross section is found at low energy, relative to current evaluations, in the region of BBN interest, the present results are consistent with the values inferred from the time-reversal ^{7}Li(p,n)^{7}Be reaction, thus yielding only a relatively minor improvement on the so-called cosmological lithium problem. The relevance of these results on the near-threshold neutron production in the p+^{7}Li reaction is also discussed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Endocrine treatment (ET) with an aromatase inhibitor (AI) is the treatment of choice in post-menopausal patients with hormone receptor-positive early breast cancer (EBC). However, adverse events (AEs) often lead to treatment discontinuation. This analysis aimed to identify side-effects that lead to patients failing to persist with letrozole treatment. PATIENTS AND METHODS Post-menopausal hormone receptor-positive EBC patients starting ET with letrozole were enroled in EvAluate-TM, a non-interventional study. Information regarding treatment compliance and persistence was gathered in months 6 and 12. Persistence was defined as the time from 30 d after the start to the end of treatment. The influence on persistence of musculoskeletal syndrome, menopausal disorder, sleep disorder and other AEs within the first 30 d was analysed using Cox regression analyses. RESULTS Among 3887 patients analysed, the persistence rate after 12 months was >85%. In all, 568 patients (14.6%) discontinued the treatment, 358 of whom (63.0%) did so only because of side-effects. The main AEs influencing persistence were musculoskeletal symptoms (hazard ratio [HR] 2.55; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.90-3.42), sleep disorders (HR 1.95; 95% CI, 1.41-2.70) and other AEs (HR 2.03; 95% CI, 1.51-2.73). Menopausal disorder was not associated with non-persistence (HR 1.17; 95% CI, 0.74-1.84). CONCLUSIONS These results suggest that side-effects of AIs such as musculoskeletal syndrome and sleep disorder lead to ET discontinuation within the first treatment year in significant numbers of EBC patients. Compliance programmes adapted for subgroups that are at risk for early non-persistence might help to ensure the recommended therapy duration. CLINICAL TRIALS NUMBER CFEM345DDE19.

Abstract
Zusammenfassung
Gegenstand und Ziel: Hyperketonämien treten in Milchviehbeständen scheinbar vermehrt im Frühsommer auf. Ziel der Untersuchung war, unter den Bedingungen des Landes Mecklenburg-Vorpommern (MV) festzustellen, ob diese Häufung statistisch nachweisbar ist und zu welchem Anteil es sich bei den beschriebenen Fällen um alimentär oder energiemangelbedingte Hyperketonämien handelt. Material und Methoden: Anhand der in 5 Jahren gewonnenen Blutproben von 7081 Kühen aus MV wurde der jahreszeitliche Verlauf der Hyperketonämie-Prävalenz untersucht. Konzentrationen von ≥ 1,0 mmol/l β-Hydroxybuttersäure (BHB) bzw. ≥ 5,0 μmol/l Bilirubin wurden als Hyperketonämie (Ket) bzw. Hyperbilirubinämie (Bili) gewertet. Der Anstieg beider Parameter wurde als energiemangelbedingte Hyperketonämie (h-Ket) interpretiert. Ergebnisse: Die Ket- und h-Ket-Prävalenzen der laktierenden Milchkühe in 5 Jahren betrugen 19,3% und 10,0%. Ein jahreszeitlicher Effekt ließ sich nur für die Bili-Prävalenz bei laktierenden Milchkühen nachweisen, die im Herbst sank (p < 0,05). Bei Mutterkühen betrug die Ket- und h-Ket-Prävalenz im Beobachtungszeitraum 11,0% bzw. 9,1%. Schlussfolgerungen: Unter den Bedingungen der vorliegenden Studie lag kein fester jahreszeitlicher Effekt auf die Ketoserate von Kühen vor. Etwa die Hälfte der bei laktierenden Milchkühen auftretenden Hyperketonämien war durch Energiemangel bedingt, wobei die energetische Versorgung der Tiere im Herbst offenbar vergleichsweise gut war. In der Mutterkuhhaltung hat Ketose eine geringere Bedeutung, bei deut - lichem Überwiegen energiemangelbedingter Ereignisse. Klinische Relevanz: In der tierärztlichen Praxis sollten bei Verdacht auf subklinische Ketose bzw. bei Stichprobenuntersuchung zur Bestandsbetreuung neben BHB auch Parameter mit Bezug zum Energiehaushalt, zumindest auch Bilirubin im Blutserum, untersucht werden.

Abstract
SummaryIn 1994, quarantine fresh-frozen plasma (Q-FFP) was introduced in Germany in order to reduce the risk of HIV and HCV transmission. In 1998, an acute HCV infection of a patient was reported to us. The lookback revealed that this patient had received two Q-FFP from a donor who had seroconverted for HCV in the meantime. Recipients of further plasma donations from this donor were identified. Back-up specimens of these donations were investigated in several laboratories. A total of 25 additional HCV-PCR positive plasma units had been transfused to 12 further patients. HCV infections were diagnosed in seven of these recipients, three patients had already been deceased. One of the remaining two recipients was already HCV positive prior to transfusion, in the other patient, no HCV infection was detectable. This patient had received three units of an “early” plasma donation , which was tested negative by PCR in one laboratory, but positive in the other. The subsequent, clinically infectious donation had the same discrepant PCR results. Thus, eight cases of HCV transmission were revealed and classified as “certain” with regard to causality, also due to an identical HCV genotype, i.e. 3e. Some of these infections would have been prevented by application of a different anti-HCV assay. The assay used in the respective plasmapheresis station was in-sensitive in this individual case for more than 400 days after the first PCR positive donation. This caused the release of the above mentioned infectious units. Upon re-testing the backups, three of four other anti-HCV assays revealed a positive result already 104 days after the first PCR-positive donation. The donor had increased ALAT levels (> 23 IU/L) at nine of 28 donations, two of these were higher than 2.5 times the upper normal limit, and two were higher than 68 IU/L, which is the cut-off value for male blood donors in Germany. The results of these (look-back) studies arouse several queries, i.e. differences in the diagnostic sensitivity between current anti-HCV and PCR tests, the accuracy of risk-estimates (especially when based on hemovigilance studies for Q-FFP), the value of ALAT testing, and currently practised release algorithms for Q-FFP.

Abstract
Econazole is an anti-mycotic agent widely used for the treatment of cutaneous fungal infections, and for the therapy of vaginal candidiasis. Topical application of this azole is generally safe, although some patients have complained of mild burning sensation/cutaneous irritation and itching, especially when administered intravaginally. The underlying mechanisms responsible of these adverse effects are poorly understood, though they suggest excitation of cutaneous nociceptor terminals. We report that exposure of primary cultures of rat nociceptors to econazole augments neuronal excitability. This effect appears mediated by increments in the intracellular Ca2+ by stimulating Ca2+ entry and release from the endoplasmic reticulum. Ca2+ entry was not due to activation of thermo transient receptor potential (TRP) channels, suggesting a different ion channel targeted by the azole. Noteworthy, econazole-evoked responses were potentiated by a pro-inflammatory agent, which resulted in an increase in neuronal excitability. Econazole-elicited action potential firing was significantly abolished by the inflammatory cytokine inhibiting drug benzydamine via blockade of voltage-gated Na+ (Nav) channels. Collectively, our results indicate that the burning sensation of econazole is due at least in part to modulation of nociceptor excitability, and such sensation is increased in the presence of pro-inflammatory stimuli and blocked by benzydamine. These findings imply that a combination of the azole with benzydamine has the potential to reduce significantly the unpleasant symptoms related to infection and to the adverse effects of topical econazole formulations.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To assess the economic impact of introducing into clinical practice in the UK the soluble fms-like tyrosine kinase (sFlt-1) to placental growth factor (PlGF) ratio test for guiding the management of pre-eclampsia. METHODS We used an economic model estimating the incremental value of information, from a UK National Health Service payer's perspective, generated by the sFlt-1/PlGF ratio test, compared with current diagnostic procedures, in guiding the management of women with suspected pre-eclampsia. The economic model estimated costs associated with the diagnosis and management of pre-eclampsia in pregnant women between 24 + 0 and 36 + 6 weeks' gestation, managed in either a 'test' scenario in which the sFlt-1/PlGF test is used in addition to current diagnostic procedures, or a 'no-test' scenario in which clinical decisions are based on current diagnostic procedures alone. Test characteristics and resource use were derived from PROGNOSIS, a non-interventional study in women presenting with clinical suspicion of pre-eclampsia. The main outcome measure from the economic model was the cost per patient per episode of care, from first suspicion of pre-eclampsia to birth. RESULTS Introduction of the sFlt-1/PlGF ratio test into clinical practice is expected to result in cost savings of £344 per patient compared with a no-test scenario. Savings are generated primarily through an improvement in diagnostic accuracy and subsequent reduction in unnecessary hospitalization. CONCLUSIONS Introducing the sFlt-1/PlGF ratio test into clinical practice in the UK was shown to be cost-saving by reducing unnecessary hospitalization of women at low risk of developing pre-eclampsia. In addition, the test ensures that those women at higher risk are identified and managed appropriately. © 2016 Authors.

Abstract
The energy-dependent cross section of the ^{7}Be(n,α)^{4}He reaction, of interest for the so-called cosmological lithium problem in big bang nucleosynthesis, has been measured for the first time from 10 meV to 10 keV neutron energy. The challenges posed by the short half-life of ^{7}Be and by the low reaction cross section have been overcome at n_TOF thanks to an unprecedented combination of the extremely high luminosity and good resolution of the neutron beam in the new experimental area (EAR2) of the n_TOF facility at CERN, the availability of a sufficient amount of chemically pure ^{7}Be, and a specifically designed experimental setup. Coincidences between the two alpha particles have been recorded in two Si-^{7}Be-Si arrays placed directly in the neutron beam. The present results are consistent, at thermal neutron energy, with the only previous measurement performed in the 1960s at a nuclear reactor. The energy dependence reported here clearly indicates the inadequacy of the cross section estimates currently used in BBN calculations. Although new measurements at higher neutron energy may still be needed, the n_TOF results hint at a minor role of this reaction in BBN, leaving the long-standing cosmological lithium problem unsolved.

Abstract
This study investigates the predictive value of child-related and environmental characteristics for early lexical development. The German productive vocabulary of 51 2-year-olds (27 girls), assessed via parental report, was analyzed taking children's gender, the type of early care they experienced, and their mono- versus bilingual language composition into consideration. The children were from an educationally homogeneous group of families and state-regulated daycare facilities with high structural quality. All investigated subgroups exhibited German vocabulary size within the expected normative range. Gender differences in vocabulary composition, but not in size, were observed. There were no general differences in vocabulary size or composition between the 2 care groups. An interaction between the predictors gender and care arrangement showed that girls without regular daycare experience before the age of 2 years had a somewhat larger vocabulary than all other investigated subgroups of children. The vocabulary size of the 2-year-old children in daycare correlated positively with the duration of their daycare experience prior to testing. The small subgroup of bilingual children investigated exhibited slightly lower but still normative German expressive vocabulary size and a different vocabulary composition compared to the monolingual children. This study expands current knowledge about relevant predictors of early vocabulary. It shows that in the absence of educational disadvantages the duration of early daycare experience of high structural quality is positively associated with vocabulary size but also points to the fact that environmental characteristics, such as type of care, might affect boys' and girls' early vocabulary in different ways.

Abstract
To identify common variants contributing to normal variation in two specific domains of cognitive functioning, we conducted a genome-wide association study (GWAS) of executive functioning and information processing speed in non-demented older adults from the CHARGE (Cohorts for Heart and Aging Research in Genomic Epidemiology) consortium. Neuropsychological testing was available for 5429-32,070 subjects of European ancestry aged 45 years or older, free of dementia and clinical stroke at the time of cognitive testing from 20 cohorts in the discovery phase. We analyzed performance on the Trail Making Test parts A and B, the Letter Digit Substitution Test (LDST), the Digit Symbol Substitution Task (DSST), semantic and phonemic fluency tests, and the Stroop Color and Word Test. Replication was sought in 1311-21860 subjects from 20 independent cohorts. A significant association was observed in the discovery cohorts for the single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs17518584 (discovery P-value=3.12 × 10(-8)) and in the joint discovery and replication meta-analysis (P-value=3.28 × 10(-9) after adjustment for age, gender and education) in an intron of the gene cell adhesion molecule 2 (CADM2) for performance on the LDST/DSST. Rs17518584 is located about 170 kb upstream of the transcription start site of the major transcript for the CADM2 gene, but is within an intron of a variant transcript that includes an alternative first exon. The variant is associated with expression of CADM2 in the cingulate cortex (P-value=4 × 10(-4)). The protein encoded by CADM2 is involved in glutamate signaling (P-value=7.22 × 10(-15)), gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) transport (P-value=1.36 × 10(-11)) and neuron cell-cell adhesion (P-value=1.48 × 10(-13)). Our findings suggest that genetic variation in the CADM2 gene is associated with individual differences in information processing speed.
