Abstract
PURPOSE Coffin-Siris and Nicolaides-Baraitser syndromes are recognizable neurodevelopmental disorders caused by germline variants in BAF complex subunits. The SMARCC2 BAFopathy was recently reported. Herein, we present clinical and molecular data on a large cohort. METHODS Clinical symptoms for 41 novel and 24 previously published affected individuals were analyzed using the Human Phenotype Ontology. For genotype-phenotype correlations, molecular data were standardized and grouped into non-truncating and likely gene-disrupting (LGD) variants. Missense variant protein expression and BAF-subunit interactions were examined using 3D protein modeling, co-immunoprecipitation, and proximity-ligation assays. RESULTS Neurodevelopmental delay with intellectual disability, muscular hypotonia, and behavioral disorders were the major manifestations. Clinical hallmarks of BAFopathies were rare. Clinical presentation differed significantly, with LGD variants being predominantly inherited and associated with mildly reduced or normal cognitive development, whereas non-truncating variants were mostly de novo and presented with severe developmental delay. These distinct manifestations and non-truncating variant clustering in functional domains suggest different pathomechanisms. In vitro testing showed decreased protein expression for N-terminal missense variants similar to LGD. CONCLUSION This study improved SMARCC2 variant classification and identified discernible SMARCC2-associated phenotypes for LGD and non-truncating variants, which were distinct from other BAFopathies. The pathomechanism of most non-truncating variants has yet to be investigated.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction
This is the first clinical case series to report time to ulceration, minor and major amputation of the contralateral limb (CLL) in the first 12 months following major lower limb amputation (LLA) in patients with peripheral arterial disease (PAD) and/or diabetes.
Method
Consecutive patient samples at two regional UK vascular centres were included; from 2010 to 2017 (site 1) and 2014 to 2016 (site 2). Data were extracted from electronic records for 12 months following index major LLA. Survival analyses are presented for the event of mortality in the total study population, plus major amputation-free survival, and complication-free survival in site 1 only; results are stratified by diabetes status.
Results
Of 381 patients reviewed (n = 197 site 1; n = 184 site 2), 208 (54.6%) were diagnosed with diabetes at the time of their index major LLA. The mean survival time of patients was lower in those without diabetes (HR: 0.64 [95% CI, 0.43 to 0.95], p=.03). The mean time to major amputation of the CLL or death in patients was lower in those without diabetes (HR: 0.65 [95% CI, 224 0.40 to 1.06]; p=.08). The median time to any complication of the CLL or death was greater in those without diabetes (HR: 1.25 [95% CI, 227 0.88 to 1.78]; p=.21).
Conclusions
Death rates were higher in patients without diabetes, whilst those with diabetes had high levels of CLL complications. Optimisation of care to protect the CLL following major LLA and guidance for carers, patients, and clinicians is required.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Characteristics of patients receiving long-term opioid therapy (≥ 6 months) for chronic noncancer pain are poorly understood. We conducted a cross-sectional survey of this patient population to explore demographic variables, pain relief, functional improvement, adverse effects and impressions of an educational pamphlet on long-term opioid therapy. METHODS We invited 260 adult patients presenting to the Pain Management Centre at the Hamilton General Hospital, Hamilton, Ontario, with chronic noncancer pain to complete a 20-item survey. Patients who presented for procedures were not eligible for our study. We used adjusted logistic regression models to explore the association between higher morphine equivalent dose and pain relief, functional improvement, adverse events and employment. RESULTS The survey was completed by 170 patients (a response rate of 65.4%). Most respondents (87.6%; 149 out of 170) were receiving long-term opioid therapy, and the median morphine equivalent dose was 180 mg daily (interquartile range 60-501). Most respondents reported at least modest (> 40%) opioid-specific pain relief (74.1%; 106 out of 143) and functional improvement (67.6%; 96 out of 142), and 46.5% (66 out of 142) reported troublesome adverse effects that they attributed to their opioid use. Most patients were receiving disability benefits (68.3%; 99 out of 145) and, among those respondents who were less than 65 years of age (90.3%; 131 out of 145), 10 (7.6%) were working full-time and 14 (10.7%) part-time. In our adjusted analyses, higher morphine equivalent dose was associated with greater self-reported functional improvement (odds ratio [OR] 1.45, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.07-1.96) but not with pain relief (OR 1.38, 95% CI 1.00-1.89), troublesome adverse effects (OR 0.92, 95% CI 0.70-1.20) or employment (OR 0.80, 95% CI 0.56-1.15). INTERPRETATION Most outpatients receiving long-term opioid therapy for chronic noncancer pain at a tertiary care chronic pain clinic reported at least moderate pain relief and functional improvement; however, adverse effects were common and few patients were engaged in competitive employment.
