Abstract
Supplementing livestock grazing communal rangelands with leaf-meals from Acacia trees, which are currently considered as problematic invasive alien plants globally, may be a sustainable way of exploiting their desirable nutritional and anthelmintic properties. The current study evaluated worm burdens and growth performance of lambs grazing low-quality communal rangelands supplemented with leaf-meals prepared from the invasive alien plant species; Acacia mearnsii or A. dealbata. Forty, three-month-old ewe lambs weighing an average of 18.9 ± 0.60 kg were randomly allocated to four supplementary diets: (1) rangeland hay only (control), (2) commercial protein supplement plus rangeland hay, (3) A. mearnsii leaf-meal plus rangeland hay and (4) A. dealbata leaf-meal plus rangeland hay. All the supplementary diets were formulated to meet the lambs' minimum maintenance requirements for protein. All the lambs were grazed on communal rangelands daily from 0800 to 1400 after which they were penned to allow them access to their respective supplementary diets until 08:00 the following morning. The respective supplementary diets were offered at the rate of 400 g ewe- 1 day- 1 for 60 days. Lambs fed the commercial protein supplement had the highest dry matter intake followed by those fed the Acacia leaf-meals and the control diet, respectively (P ≤ 0.05). Relative to the other supplementary diets, lambs fed the commercial protein supplement and A. dealbata leaf-meal had higher (P ≤ 0.05) final body weight and average daily gains. Dietary supplementation did not affect lamb faecal worm egg counts over the study period (P > 0.05). There was no association between supplementary diets and lamb FAMACHA© scores (P > 0.05). It was concluded that supplementation of Acacia dealbata versus Acacia mearnsii has the potential to emulate commercial protein in maintaining growth performance of lambs grazing communal rangelands in the dry season.

Abstract
Via molecular and morphological analyses, we describe adult specimens of a new species of Versteria (Cestoda: Taeniidae) infecting mink and river otter (Carnivora: Mustelidae) in Western Canada, as well as larval forms from muskrat and mink. These sequences closely matched those reported from adult specimens from Colorado and Oregon, as well as larval infections in humans and a captive orangutan. We describe here a new species from British Columbia and Alberta (Canada), Versteria rafei n. sp., based upon morphological diagnostic characteristics and genetic distance and phylogeny. Versteria rafei n. sp. differs from the three other described species of the genus in the smaller scolex and cirrus sac. It also differs from V. mustelae (Eurasia) and V. cuja (South America) by having an armed cirrus, which is covered in hair-like bristles, and in the shape of its hooks, with a long thorn-like blade, and short or long handle (vs. a short sharply curved blade and no difference in handle size in previously described species). The poorly known V. brachyacantha (Central Africa) also has an armed cirrus and similarly shaped hooks. However, it differs from the new species in the number and size of hooks. Phylogenetic analysis of the cox1 and nad1 mitochondrial regions showed that our specimens clustered with isolates from undescribed adults and larval infections in North America, and separate from V. cuja, confirming them to be a distinct species from the American Clade.

Abstract
Fruit quality is dependent on various factors including flavour, texture and colour. These factors are determined by the ripening process, either climacteric or non-climacteric. In grape berry, which is non-climacteric, the process is signalled by a complex set of hormone changes. Abscisic acid (ABA) is one of the key hormones involved in ripening, while sugar availability also plays a significant role in certain ripening aspects such as anthocyanin production. To understand the relative influence of hormone and sugar signalling in situ can prove problematic due to the physiological and environmental (abiotic and biotic) factors at play in vineyards. Here we report on the use of in vitro detached berry culture to investigate the comparative significance of ABA and sugar in the regulation of Pinot noir berry anthocyanin production under controlled conditions. Using a factorial experimental design, pre-véraison berries were cultured on media with various concentrations of sucrose and ABA. After 15 days of in vitro culture, the berries were analysed for changes in metabolites, hormones and gene expression. Results illustrated a stimulatory effect of sucrose and ABA on enhancing berry colour and a corresponding increase in anthocyanins. Increased ABA concentration was able to boost anthocyanin production in berries when sucrose supply was low. The sucrose and ABA effects on berry anthocyanins were primarily manifested through the up-regulation of transcription factors and other genes in the phenylpropanoid pathway, while in other parts of the pathway a down-regulation of key proanthocyanindin transcription factors and genes corresponded to sharp reduction in berry proanthocyanidins, irrespective of sucrose supply. Similarly, increased ABA was correlated with a significant reduction in berry malic acid and associated regulatory genes. These findings suggest a predominance of berry ABA over berry sugar in coordinating the physiological and genetic regulation of anthocyanins and proanthocyanins in Pinot noir grape berries.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) The left anterior descending (LAD) coronary artery volume receiving 15 Gy (V15 Gy) has been associated with major adverse cardiac events and mortality in patients with locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer (LA-NSCLC) treated with radiotherapy (RT). However, coronary arteries are not routinely contoured as standard-of-care and there is limited data describing coronary-sparing planning techniques. Our objective was to evaluate whether LAD-sparing could be improved compared to real-world plans using a commercial knowledge-based planning (KBP) software without clinically unacceptable tradeoffs to other critical organs at risk (OAR). MATERIALS/METHODS Retrospective replanning analysis was conducted on 31 RT plans developed for patients with LA-NSCLC. Each case was manually replanned with volumetric modulated arc radiotherapy (VMAT) optimized for LAD V15 Gy sparing with a prescription dose of 60 Gy. The resulting plans were used to create an LAD-optimized KBP model. The model included both KBP-generated objectives and additional point objectives to meet LAD (V15 Gy < 10%), lung (V5 Gy < 60%, V20 < 30%, mean < 17 Gy), heart (mean < 20 Gy), spinal cord (D0.03cc < 45 Gy), esophagus (V60 Gy < 17%, mean < 34 Gy), and planning target volume (PTV; D95% = 100%). The LAD-optimized model was deployed to replan 33 additional VMAT plans for LA-NSCLC with prescription dose 60 Gy, delivered between 2018 and 2022. Dose constraints or objectives were only unmet with KBP when not met in the original plan. Descriptive statistics were used to compare dosimetric parameters between original and LAD-optimized KBP plans. RESULTS For the 33 plans identified for LAD-optimized KBP replanning, the original plans had a mean LAD V15 Gy of 17.9% (standard error [SE], 3.9%), while the LAD-optimized KBP plans had a significantly lower mean LAD V15 Gy of 5.9% (SE, 1.9%; p = 0.031). There was no significant difference in mean heart dose between the original and LAD-optimized KBP plans (8.4 Gy [SE 6.6 Gy] vs. 7.3 Gy [SE 5.8 Gy]; p = 0.48). Of these 33 KBP plans, 42% (n = 14) had mean reductions in LAD V15 Gy from 40.5% (SE 4.3%) to 10.5% (SE 3.5%; p = 0.0002), with 9/14 now able to meet < 10%, without affecting other critical OAR objectives (p > 0.5 for lungs, esophagus, spinal cord). 45% (n = 15) originally had an LAD V15 Gy < 1%, which were unchanged using KBP (p > 0.3). Four plans (12%) had higher LAD V15 Gy in the KBP vs. original plan (2/4 still meeting < 10%), due to the model prioritizing other OARs to a greater degree. CONCLUSION Improvements in LAD-sparing was achievable in more than 40% of plans without apparent clinically significant tradeoffs in other critical OARs and without corresponding change in MHD. This result underscores the importance of standard implementation of LAD contouring and dose constraints, particularly given the discordance between whole heart and LAD dose exposure.

Abstract
Maternal infection has emerged as an important environmental risk factor for neurodevelopmental disorders, including schizophrenia and autism spectrum disorders. Animal model systems of maternal immune activation (MIA) suggest that the maternal immune response plays a significant role in the offspring's neurodevelopment and behavioral outcomes. Extracellular free water is a measure of freely diffusing water in the brain that may be associated with neuroinflammation and impacted by MIA. The present study evaluates the brain diffusion characteristics of male rhesus monkeys (Macaca mulatta) born to MIA-exposed dams (n = 14) treated with a modified form of the viral mimic polyinosinic:polycytidylic acid at the end of the first trimester. Control dams received saline injections at the end of the first trimester (n = 10) or were untreated (n = 4). Offspring underwent diffusion MRI scans at 6, 12, 24, 36, and 45 months. Offspring born to MIA-exposed dams showed significantly increased extracellular free water in cingulate cortex gray matter starting as early as 6 months of age and persisting through 45 months. In addition, offspring gray matter free water in this region was significantly correlated with the magnitude of the maternal IL-6 response in the MIA-exposed dams. Significant correlations between brain volume and extracellular free water in the MIA-exposed offspring also indicate converging, multimodal evidence of the impact of MIA on brain development. These findings provide strong evidence for the construct validity of the nonhuman primate MIA model as a system of relevance for investigating the pathophysiology of human neurodevelopmental psychiatric disorders. Elevated free water in individuals exposed to immune activation in utero could represent an early marker of a perturbed or vulnerable neurodevelopmental trajectory.

Abstract
We report the first measurement of the Michel parameter ξ^{'} in the τ^{-}→μ^{-}ν[over ¯]_{μ}ν_{τ} decay with a new method proposed just recently. The measurement is based on the reconstruction of the τ^{-}→μ^{-}ν[over ¯]_{μ}ν_{τ} events with subsequent muon decay in flight in the Belle central drift chamber. The analyzed data sample of 988 fb^{-1} collected by the Belle detector corresponds to approximately 912×10^{6} τ^{+}τ^{-} pairs. We measure ξ^{'}=0.22±0.94(stat)±0.42(syst), which is in agreement with the standard model prediction of ξ^{'}=1. Statistical uncertainty dominates in this study, being a limiting factor, while systematic uncertainty is well under control. Our analysis proved the practicability of this promising method and its prospects for further precise measurement in future experiments.

Abstract
We study B^{+}→π^{+}π^{0}π^{0} using 711 fb^{-1} of data collected at the ϒ(4S) resonance with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy e^{+}e^{-} collider. We measure an inclusive branching fraction of (19.0±1.5±1.4)×10^{-6} and an inclusive CP asymmetry of (9.2±6.8±0.7)%, where the first uncertainties are statistical and the second are systematic, and a B^{+}→ρ(770)^{+}π^{0} branching fraction of (11.2±1.1±0.9_{-1.6}^{+0.8})×10^{-6}, where the third uncertainty is due to possible interference with B^{+}→ρ(1450)^{+}π^{0}. We present the first observation of a structure around 1 GeV/c^{2} in the π^{0}π^{0} mass spectrum, with a significance of 6.4σ, and measure a branching fraction to be (6.9±0.9±0.6)×10^{-6}. We also report a measurement of local CP asymmetry in this structure.

Abstract
Using the data sample of 980 fb^{-1} collected with the Belle detector operating at the KEKB asymmetric-energy e^{+}e^{-} collider, we present the results of an investigation of the Λπ^{+} and Λπ^{-} invariant mass distributions looking for substructure in the decay Λ_{c}^{+}→Λπ^{+}π^{+}π^{-}. We find a significant signal in each mass distribution. When interpreted as resonances, we find for the Λπ^{+} (Λπ^{-}) combination a mass of 1434.3±0.6(stat)±0.9(syst) MeV/c^{2} [1438.5±0.9(stat)±2.5(syst) MeV/c^{2}], an intrinsic width of 11.5±2.8(stat)±5.3(syst) MeV/c^{2} [33.0±7.5(stat)±23.6(syst) MeV/c^{2}] with a significance of 7.5σ (6.2σ). As these two signals are very close to the K[over ¯]N threshold, we also investigate the possibility of a K[over ¯]N cusp, and find that we cannot discriminate between these two interpretations due to the limited size of the data sample.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Several novel methods have been suggested to extend a conventional value assessment to capture a more comprehensive perspective of value from a patient perspective. The objective of this research was to demonstrate a framework for implementing a combined qualitative and quantitative method to elicit and prioritize patient experience value elements in rare diseases. Neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder was used as a case study. METHODS The method for eliciting and prioritizing patient experience value elements involved a three-step process: (1) collecting potential patient experience value elements from existing literature sources followed by deliberation by a multi-stakeholder research team; (2) a pre-workshop webinar and survey to identify additional patient-reported value elements; and (3) a workshop to discuss, prioritize the value elements using a swing weighting method. Outcomes were prioritized value elements with normalized weights for patients considering a treatment for neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder. RESULTS A literature review and deliberation resulted in the following initial value elements: ability to reach important personal milestones, patient's financial burden, value of hope/balance or timing of risks and benefits, Uncertainty about long-term benefits and safety of the treatment, Patient empowerment through therapeutic advancement and technology, Caregiver/family's financial burden, patient experience related to treatment regimen, Therapeutic options, and Caregiver/family's quality of life. Eight patients with neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder participated in the case study. In the online survey, participants found the nine proposed patient experience value elements both understandable and important with no additions. During the workshop, 'Uncertainty about long-term benefits and safety,' 'Patient experience related to treatment regimen,' and 'Patient's financial burden' were found to be the most important patient experience value elements, with a respective weight of 25%, 19.2%, and 14.4% (out of total 100%). CONCLUSIONS This case study provides a framework for eliciting and prioritizing patient experience value elements using direct patient input. Although elements/weights may differ by disease, and even in neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder, additional research is needed, value frameworks, researchers, and manufacturers can use this practical method to generate patient experience value elements and evaluate their impact on treatment selection.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Balloon uncrossable coronary lesions are lesions that cannot be crossed with a conventional balloon. Multiple balloons have been designed to overcome this problem. The Blimp balloon has a very low scoring profile (0.6 mm) with a very high rated burst pressure (30 atmospheres). We aimed to evaluate the efficacy of this balloon compared to customary low-profile balloons. METHODS We conducted a multicenter, prospective, randomised, controlled trial in which 126 patients with an uncrossable lesion were randomly (1:1 randomization) assigned to treatment first with the Blimp balloon or low-profile balloon. The primary endpoint was the success of crossing the lesion after initial failure with a microcatheter (group A) or with a conventional balloon (group B). RESULTS Overall, the first attempt of Blimp was successful in 29 out of 61 cases (48%) while the LP balloon immediately crossed in 30 out 67 cases (45%; p = 0.761). Using a low-profile balloon in the BLIMP group after failure of the Blimp balloon increased the success to 64% (39 out of 61 cases). Using the Blimp balloon in the low-profile first group after failure of the low-profile balloon increased the success to 60% (40 out of 67 cases). After the placement of a guide catheter extension, the overall successful lesion crossing in the BLIMP group was 80% (49 out of 61 cases) compared to 76% (51 out of 67 cases) in the LP Balloon group (p = 0.327). CONCLUSIONS The Blimp balloon catheter showed no superiority to customary low-profile balloons in uncrossable lesions. It can however be complementary in treating uncrossable lesions.

Abstract
We present the study of B[over ¯]^{0}→Σ_{c}(2455)^{0,++}π^{±}p[over ¯] decays based on 772×10^{6} BB[over ¯] events collected with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy e^{+}e^{-} collider. The Σ_{c}(2455)^{0,++} candidates are reconstructed via their decay to Λ_{c}^{+}π^{∓} and Λ_{c}^{+} decays to pK^{-}π^{+}, pK_{S}^{0}, and Λπ^{+} final states. The corresponding branching fractions are measured to be B(B[over ¯]^{0}→Σ_{c}(2455)^{0}π^{+}p[over ¯])=(1.09±0.06±0.07)×10^{-4} and B(B[over ¯]^{0}→Σ_{c}(2455)^{++}π^{-}p[over ¯])=(1.84±0.11±0.12)×10^{-4}, which are consistent with the world average values with improved precision. A new structure is found in the M_{Σ_{c}(2455)^{0,++}π^{±}} spectrum with a significance of 4.2σ including systematic uncertainty. The structure is possibly an excited Λ_{c}^{+} and is tentatively named Λ_{c}(2910)^{+}. Its mass and width are measured to be (2913.8±5.6±3.8) MeV/c^{2} and (51.8±20.0±18.8) MeV, respectively. The products of branching fractions for the Λ_{c}(2910)^{+} are measured to be B(B[over ¯]^{0}→Λ_{c}(2910)^{+}p[over ¯])×B(Λ_{c}(2910)^{+}→Σ_{c}(2455)^{0}π^{+})=(9.5±3.6±1.6)×10^{-6} and B(B[over ¯]^{0}→Λ_{c}(2910)^{+}p[over ¯])×B(Λ_{c}(2910)^{+}→Σ_{c}(2455)^{++}π^{-})=(1.24±0.35±0.10)×10^{-5}. Here, the first and second uncertainties are statistical and systematic, respectively.

Abstract
Optic neuritis (ON) often occurs at the presentation of multiple sclerosis (MS), neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders (NMOSD), and myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG) antibody-associated disease (MOGAD). The recommended treatment of high-dose corticosteroids for ON is based on a North American study population, which did not address treatment timing or antibody serostatus. The Acute Optic Neuritis Network (ACON) presents a global, prospective, observational study protocol primarily designed to investigate the effect of time to high-dose corticosteroid treatment on 6-month visual outcomes in ON. Patients presenting within 30 days of the inaugural ON will be enrolled. For the primary analysis, patients will subsequently be assigned into the MS-ON group, the aquapotin-4-IgG positive ON (AQP4-IgG+ON) group or the MOG-IgG positive ON (MOG-IgG+ON) group and then further sub-stratified according to the number of days from the onset of visual loss to high-dose corticosteroids (days-to-Rx). The primary outcome measure will be high-contrast best-corrected visual acuity (HC-BCVA) at 6 months. In addition, multimodal data will be collected in subjects with any ON (CIS-ON, MS-ON, AQP4-IgG+ON or MOG-IgG+ON, and seronegative non-MS-ON), excluding infectious and granulomatous ON. Secondary outcomes include low-contrast best-corrected visual acuity (LC-BCVA), optical coherence tomography (OCT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) measurements, serum and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) biomarkers (AQP4-IgG and MOG-IgG levels, neurofilament, and glial fibrillary protein), and patient reported outcome measures (headache, visual function in daily routine, depression, and quality of life questionnaires) at presentation at 6-month and 12-month follow-up visits. Data will be collected from 28 academic hospitals from Africa, Asia, the Middle East, Europe, North America, South America, and Australia. Planned recruitment consists of 100 MS-ON, 50 AQP4-IgG+ON, and 50 MOG-IgG+ON. This prospective, multimodal data collection will assess the potential value of early high-dose corticosteroid treatment, investigate the interrelations between functional impairments and structural changes, and evaluate the diagnostic yield of laboratory biomarkers. This analysis has the ability to substantially improve treatment strategies and the accuracy of diagnostic stratification in acute demyelinating ON.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The Royal College of Surgeons (RCS) Diversity Review 2021 found that premedical school students from ethnic minority backgrounds were dissuaded from pursuing a surgical career. Gloucestershire is in the bottom 20% of disadvantaged counties; there is no widening participation (WP) scheme in the county. We implemented a fully inclusive WP scheme in Gloucester, with means of accessing virtual and face-to-face work experience, to enhance the equity of work experience. METHODS A three-stage project was conducted. Stage 1; two separate virtual Q and A sessions, to allow students to ask questions about life as a doctor. Stage 2; conversation between student and patient held virtually, to gain insight into working as a doctor to help determine whether medicine is the career for them. Stage 3; face-to-face work experience. Distribution sent to all 58 schools (state and private) in the county, targeted at secondary school children. RESULTS One hundred twenty-nine people attended the Q and A; 70 feedback responses received. Of the total, 86% female and 56% of ethnic minority background. 26% did not have an immediate family member that attended university, 10% had care-giving responsibilities. Eighty-one percent rated the session >8/10 for usefulness. Twenty-seven undertook the virtual conversation, feedback from 11; 91% female, 45% of ethnic minority background, and 27% did not have an immediate family member that attended university. All rated the session 10/10 for usefulness. 10 attended the face-to-face experience, 50% from an ethnic minority background. CONCLUSION The RCS Report identified barriers to aspiring students from less-privileged backgrounds pursuing a medical career. More needs to be done with WP schemes to promote equity. Targeted distribution of WP schemes to all schools, utilization of a variety of means of offering work experience, and accessibility to any school-aged student were aspects of our WP to improve exposure to the medical profession.

Abstract
ObjectiveTo describe the characteristics and outcomes in adult and pediatric patients diagnosed with myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody-associated disease (MOGAD) at the two major referral centers in the Mountain West of the United States, a geographic area encompassing roughly 15% of the land mass of the continental US.BackgroundSince the development of commercial assays, MOGAD has become increasingly recognized as an etiologic diagnosis for several CNS demyelinating phenotypes, yet the epidemiological characteristics, relapse rates and outcomes of large populations are not well-describedDesign/MethodsA retrospective chart review for patients within the health systems at the University of Utah and the University of Colorado, and affiliated children's hospitals, was conducted. To identify MOGAD patients, we queried the ICD10 codes corresponding to demyelinating disease of CNS, neuromyelitis optic spectrum disease, optic neuritis, transverse myelitis, and acute disseminated encephalomyelitis. These patients were then cross matched against antibody testing results and existing research databases at each institution. Search dates included 1/1/2016-12/1/2021 to encompass the period of commercially available MOG IgG testing. Patients were cross referenced with a list of positive MOG IgG assays at each institution.ResultsWe describe the characteristics of over 50 patients (adults and children) with MOGAD, including age of onset, gender, symptoms at onset, associated autoimmunity, antibody titers, response to therapies and relapse rates.ConclusionsThis is a comprehensive characterization of a diverse population of pediatric and adult MOGAD patients seen at the two major referral hospitals in the Mountain West. The treatment regimens and outcomes in this population may inform approaches to current management and future clinical trials.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction
Trastuzumab(T) is a humanized monoclonal antibody used in the treatment of HER2-positive breast cancer and is available as a subcutaneous(sc) formulation thereby allowing short and convenient administration. A lack of trained nurses to administer T at home and/or train patients at home to self-administer, together with challenges in maintaining cold-chain delivery have impeded uptake of home administration.1,2 In order to support patients’ ability to self-administer T at home, we have implemented an educational programme that includes nurse-led training, education material, support apps and follow-up telephone clinics. Home delivery of pre-filled syringes was enabled in collaboration with commercial providers for aseptics and logistic.
Aim
The aim of this service evaluation was to evaluate the utility of this programme from the patients’ perspective and to assess patient satisfaction and impact on quality of life (QOL).
Methods
A previously validated Self-Injection Assessment Questionnaire (SIAQ)3 was modified to assess patient satisfaction, perceptions and impact of the programme. Patients who had agreed to enrol on the ‘self-administration’ scheme, were asked to complete the questionnaire at baseline, at the third training session and at the second self-administered dose. Approval from a Research Ethics Committee is not required for this service evaluation.
Results
All 14 patients offered the questionnaire responded to all questions. The median age was 58 years old (age range 43-76), 11 patients were Caucasian, 2 were Asian and one was African/Caribbean. The average distance from their home address to hospital was 10.1 miles (range 4-19). Following completion of the one-to-one nurse training there was an improvement in patient confidence to self-administer sc. T. No differences in ‘feeling in control of their treatment’ or ‘satisfaction of attending hospital appointments’ were noted. Of the 11 patients who reached the self-administration stage, 10 reported that they felt ‘very confident’ and 8 reported that it was ‘very easy’ to give themselves the injection. All patients rated themselves ‘very satisfied’ with self-administration and reported that the nurse training programme helped them to be more confident. 10 patients reported that the App and written information was useful as well as the pre- and post- administration telephone clinics. All patients reported that the self-administration programme had a positive impact on their QOL by reducing the number of hospital visits. In the first 4 months of self-administration each patient reduced their hospital attendance by an average of 8 appointments (median=8) equating to 10 hours of time that would have been spent at hospital.
Discussion/Conclusion
The subcutaneous T self-administration programme was well received by patients. The nurse training sessions and supportive materials enabled patients to feel more confident about self-administration with no reported incidents or adverse events. This led to fewer hospital visits and improved QOL. This programme was critically dependent on the services of a commercial compounder and homecare provider, emphasizing the importance of joint working between the NHS and commercial sector. Evaluation of this programme will continue and will include other agents, including Phesgo® (sc trastuzumab and pertuzumab) which have more patients and will improve the reliability of the results.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
It has been suggested that the complexity of coronary artery disease (CAD) is a determinant of worse outcomes after transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI). However, no data is available showing this applies equally to both sexes.
Purpose
Males are usually overrepresented in studies regarding CAD and care should be used when translating these results to the female population. The purpose of this analysis was to compare sex specific clinical outcomes in patients undergoing TAVI with and without coexisting CAD.
Methods
All patients undergoing TAVI at a tertiary referral centre between 2008 and 2020 were included and outcomes up to five years after TAVI were prospectively recorded. Baseline and residual (after revascularization) SYNTAX-scores (SS) were retrospectively calculated to make groups of different CAD complexity.
Results
A total of 605 patients, of whome 284 (46.9%) female patients, underwent TAVI. Five years after TAVI, females and males had similar overall survival (62 vs 59%, p=0.320) and cardiovascular mortality (22% vs 20%, p=0.540), respectively. Females were older (82.7y vs 80.8y, p<0.001), had a higher left ventricular ejection fraction (53.7% vs 49.4%, p<0.001) and higher aortic valve mean gradient (45.7 vs 41.6 mmHg, p=0.002). EuroScore II was comparable between both groups (26.8 vs 27.5, p=0.330). Females had less obstructive CAD (49% vs 64%, p<0.001) and less complex CAD (mean SS: 8.3 vs 12.6, p<0.001), despite reporting similar rates of angina (10% vs 11%, p=0.492). While in males CAD complexity was not predictive of survival (fig 1A) or cardiovascular mortality (fig 2A), females showed worse survival (fig 1B) and cardiovascular mortality (fig 2B) with increasing CAD complexity. This difference seems not to be driven by a lower rate of revascularization since women with CAD received significantly more percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI) (41% vs 24%, p=0.001) and trended towards more complete revascularization (residual SS <8 70% in females vs 52% in males, p=0.054). Background medical therapy with aspirin (70% vs 72%, p=0.710), other antiplatelet agents (61% vs 57%, p=0.390) and statins (71% vs 81%, p=0.065) was not different between both groups. A possible explanation for the similar rates of angina despite less complex CAD in females might be a higher prevalence of underlying microvascular dysfunction, which is also known to be related with an increased rate of cardiovascular events.
Conclusion
We show that in females outcomes after TAVI are significantly influenced by co-existing CAD and its complexity, while in males this is less pronounced. We identified a subgroup of females with a SS >22 that are at particular high risk for fatal cardiovascular events after TAVI. Therefore, awareness for CAD and close follow-up in combination with guideline-directed treatment of complex CAD in females undergoing TAVI is crucial.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The optimal anastomotic techniques in esophagectomy to minimize rates of anastomotic leakage and conduit necrosis are not known. The aim of this study was to assess whether the anastomotic technique was associated with anastomotic failure after esophagectomy in the international Oesophago-Gastric Anastomosis Audit cohort. METHODS This prospective observational multicenter cohort study included patients undergoing esophagectomy for esophageal cancer over 9 months during 2018. The primary exposure was the anastomotic technique, classified as handsewn, linear stapled, or circular stapled. The primary outcome was anastomotic failure, namely a composite of anastomotic leakage and conduit necrosis, as defined by the Esophageal Complications Consensus Group. Multivariable logistic regression modeling was used to identify the association between anastomotic techniques and anastomotic failure, after adjustment for confounders. RESULTS Of the 2238 esophagectomies, the anastomosis was handsewn in 27.1%, linear stapled in 21.0%, and circular stapled in 51.9%. Anastomotic techniques differed significantly by the anastomosis sites (P < .001), with the majority of neck anastomoses being handsewn (69.9%), whereas most chest anastomoses were stapled (66.3% circular stapled and 19.3% linear stapled). Rates of anastomotic failure differed significantly among the anastomotic techniques (P < .001), from 19.3% in handsewn anastomoses, to 14.0% in linear stapled anastomoses, and 12.1% in circular stapled anastomoses. This effect remained significant after adjustment for confounding factors on multivariable analysis, with an odds ratio of 0.63 (95% CI, 0.46-0.86; P = .004) for circular stapled versus handsewn anastomosis. However, subgroup analysis by anastomosis site suggested that this effect was predominantly present in neck anastomoses, with anastomotic failure rates of 23.2% versus 14.6% versus 5.9% for handsewn versus linear stapled anastomoses versus circular stapled neck anastomoses, compared with 13.7% versus 13.8% versus 12.2% for chest anastomoses. CONCLUSIONS Handsewn anastomoses appear to be independently associated with higher rates of anastomotic failure compared with stapled anastomoses. However, this effect seems to be largely confined to neck anastomoses, with minimal differences between techniques observed for chest anastomoses. Further research into standardization of anastomotic approach and techniques may further improve outcomes.

Abstract
Abstract
INTRODUCTION: Ependymomas remain a major cause of cancer-related death in childhood and adolescence, with recurrence occurring in up to 50% of patients. Despite exciting molecular advances in understanding ependymoma tumorigenesis and recurrence, MRI remains the mainstay for assessing objective response to therapy and duration of disease stability. Standardized response assessment criteria for clinical trials studying pediatric intracranial ependymoma are critically needed in order to accurately compare results between studies. METHODS: To generate these standardized response criteria in pediatric intracranial ependymoma, a multidisciplinary team of pediatric neuro-oncologists, neuroradiologists, neurosurgeons, radiation oncologists, and molecular biologists formed the Response Assessment in Pediatric Neuro-Oncology (RAPNO) working group. The expert members reviewed relevant published literature, assessed current clinical practices, and engaged in iterative discussions to provide consensus recommendations for objective response assessment in pediatric intracranial ependymoma for use in prospective clinical trials. RECOMMENDATIONS AND CONCLUSIONS: The primary sequences for detecting and measuring disease and assessing radiologic response to therapy should be the contrast-enhanced T1-weighted sequence or T2-weighted sequence (T2 or T2-FLAIR) depending on which sequence the tumor is best visualized. When metastatic disease is present, only the three largest lesions will be followed in addition to any residual disease at the primary tumor focus. Importantly, the RAPNO working group notes that radiologic response to therapy is of limited value in clinical trials of patients with ependymoma, since most patients enroll on clinical trials with either no evidence of disease or only minimal disease. In recurrent or progressive disease that cannot be resected, true radiologic disease response to therapy is less clinically meaningful as a study endpoint than event-free and/or overall survival (representing prolonged stable disease) but may provide a signal of efficacy worthy of future exploration in patients with complete to near complete resections.

Abstract
Although there is robust evidence that revascularisation of non-culprit vessels should be pursued in patients presenting with an acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and multivessel coronary artery disease (MVD), the optimal timing of complete revascularisation remains disputed. In this systematic review and meta-analysis our results suggest that outcomes are comparable for immediate and staged complete revascularisation in patients with ACS and MVD. However, evidence from randomised controlled trials remains scarce and cautious interpretation of these results is recommended. More non-biased evidence is necessary to aid future decision making on the optimal timing of complete revascularisation.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Textbook outcome has been proposed as a tool for the assessment of oncological surgical care. However, an international assessment in patients undergoing oesophagectomy for oesophageal cancer has not been reported. This study aimed to assess textbook outcome in an international setting.
Methods
Patients undergoing curative resection for oesophageal cancer were identified from the international Oesophagogastric Anastomosis Audit (OGAA) from April 2018 to December 2018. Textbook outcome was defined as the percentage of patients who underwent a complete tumour resection with at least 15 lymph nodes in the resected specimen and an uneventful postoperative course, without hospital readmission. A multivariable binary logistic regression model was used to identify factors independently associated with textbook outcome, and results are presented as odds ratio (OR) and 95 per cent confidence intervals (95 per cent c.i.).
Results
Of 2159 patients with oesophageal cancer, 39.7 per cent achieved a textbook outcome. The outcome parameter ‘no major postoperative complication’ had the greatest negative impact on a textbook outcome for patients with oesophageal cancer, compared to other textbook outcome parameters. Multivariable analysis identified male gender and increasing Charlson comorbidity index with a significantly lower likelihood of textbook outcome. Presence of 24-hour on-call rota for oesophageal surgeons (OR 2.05, 95 per cent c.i. 1.30 to 3.22; P = 0.002) and radiology (OR 1.54, 95 per cent c.i. 1.05 to 2.24; P = 0.027), total minimally invasive oesophagectomies (OR 1.63, 95 per cent c.i. 1.27 to 2.08; P < 0.001), and chest anastomosis above azygous (OR 2.17, 95 per cent c.i. 1.58 to 2.98; P < 0.001) were independently associated with a significantly increased likelihood of textbook outcome.
Conclusion
Textbook outcome is achieved in less than 40 per cent of patients having oesophagectomy for cancer. Improvements in centralization, hospital resources, access to minimal access surgery, and adoption of newer techniques for improving lymph node yield could improve textbook outcome.

Abstract
The measurement of two-particle angular correlation functions in high-multiplicity e^{+}e^{-} collisions at sqrt[s]=10.52 GeV is reported. In this study, the 89.5 fb^{-1} of hadronic e^{+}e^{-} annihilation data collected by the Belle detector at KEKB are used. Two-particle angular correlation functions are measured in the full relative azimuthal angle (Δϕ) and three units of pseudorapidity (Δη), defined by either the electron beam axis or the event-shape thrust axis, and are studied as a function of charged-particle multiplicity. The measurement in the thrust axis analysis, with mostly outgoing quark pairs determining the reference axis, is sensitive to the region of additional soft gluon emissions. No significant anisotropic collective behavior is observed with either coordinate analyses. Near-side jet correlations appear to be absent in the thrust axis analysis. The measurements are compared to predictions from various event generators and are expected to provide new constraints to the phenomenological models in the low-energy regime.

Abstract
We evaluated neuropathological consequences of fetal ZIKV exposure in rhesus monkeys, a translatable animal model for human neural development, by carrying out quantitative neuroanatomical analyses of the nearly full-term brains of fetuses infected with ZIKV and procedure-matched controls. For each animal, a complete cerebral hemisphere was evaluated using immunohistochemical (IHC) and neuroanatomical techniques to detect virus, identify affected cell types, and evaluate gross neuroanatomical abnormalities. IHC staining revealed the presence of ZIKV in the frontal lobe, which contained activated microglia and showed increased apoptosis of immature neurons. ZIKV-infected animals exhibited macrostructural changes within the visual pathway. Regional differences tracked with the developmental timing of the brain, suggesting inflammatory processes related to viral infiltration swept through the cortex, followed by a wave of cell death resulting in morphological changes. These findings may help explain why some infants born with normal sized heads during the ZIKV epidemic manifest developmental challenges as they age.

Abstract
Introduction Routine operative treatment of appendicitis was temporarily interrupted during the COVID-19 pandemic. Non-operative management in suspected appendicitis makes a definitive diagnosis difficult. This study investigated diagnostic outcomes of suspected appendicitis patients before and during COVID-19. Method A retrospective review of patients aged 16–45 undergoing treatment for suspected appendicitis pre-COVID-19 (1st January 2019–1st January 2020) and during the COVID-19 pandemic (1st March 2020 to 31st June 2020) was performed. Patients were followed up for one year (31st June 2021) to explore diagnostic outcomes. Results At one year follow up, 206 patients were identified in the pre-COVID-19 cohort with 100% (n = 206) undergoing an appendicectomy. On histopathological examination 77.2% (n = 159) had appendicitis; 10.7% (n = 22) another pathology; 2.9% (n = 6) neuroendocrine tumour. There were 62 patients in the COVID-19 cohort in which 79% (n = 49) underwent appendicectomy (56% (n = 35) immediate appendicectomy; 23% (n = 13) interval appendicectomy). On histopathological examination 61% (n = 38) had appendicitis; 13% (n = 8) another pathology; 5% (n = 3) neuroendocrine tumour. Of the remaining 13/62 patients, one had undergone a CT scan and colonoscopy for gastrointestinal symptoms demonstrating signs of chronic caecal inflammation treated conservatively. One underwent a CT scan alone for gastrointestinal symptoms finding no pathology. The remaining 11/62 patients had no further reported symptoms or diagnostics. Conclusions This study demonstrates that the risk of appendiceal malignancy and chronic inflammation is important in non-operative management of suspected appendicitis and establishing consistent follow up pathways is essential.

Abstract
We search for a light Higgs boson (A^{0}) decaying into a τ^{+}τ^{-} or μ^{+}μ^{-} pair in the radiative decays of ϒ(1S). The production of ϒ(1S) mesons is tagged by ϒ(2S)→π^{+}π^{-}ϒ(1S) transitions, using 158×10^{6} ϒ(2S) events accumulated with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric energy electron-positron collider. No significant A^{0} signals in the mass range from the τ^{+}τ^{-} or μ^{+}μ^{-} threshold to 9.2 GeV/c^{2} are observed. We set the upper limits at 90% credibility level (C.L.) on the product branching fractions for ϒ(1S)→γA^{0} and A^{0}→τ^{+}τ^{-} varying from 3.8×10^{-6} to 1.5×10^{-4}. Our results represent an approximately twofold improvement on the current world best upper limits for the ϒ(1S)→γA^{0}(→τ^{+}τ^{-}) production. For A^{0}→μ^{+}μ^{-}, the upper limits on the product branching fractions for ϒ(1S)→γA^{0} and A^{0}→μ^{+}μ^{-} are at the same level as the world average limits, and vary from 3.1×10^{-7} to 1.6×10^{-5}. The upper limits at 90% credibility level on the Yukawa coupling f_{ϒ(1S)} and mixing angle sinθ_{A^{0}} are also given.

Abstract
Abstract
Funding Acknowledgements
Type of funding sources: Public grant(s) – National budget only. Main funding source(s): Research Foundation Flanders
Background
Chest pain in patients with severe aortic stenosis (AS) may result from the valve stenosis itself, a coronary atherosclerotic lesion or even microvascular dysfunction (MVD). MVD in severe AS may be purely functional or the consequence of structural left ventricular (LV) remodelling. Unfortunately, there is no data available about invasive quantification of MVD using the index of microvascular resistance (IMR) in this patient group.
Purpose
To study the microcirculation in patients with severe AS by means of IMR and coronary flow reserve (CFR) and to determine the relation between these indices and standard echocardiographic parameters.
Methods
Forty-five patients with severe AS (according to the focused 2017 EACVI/ASE update) were prospectively included and underwent invasive intracoronary hemodynamic assessment and dedicated transthoracic echocardiography (TTE). On TTE we measured LV ejection fraction (EF), diastolic function parameters (E/A, e’ septal and lateral, E/e’, TR velocity), left atrial volume (index) (LAV(I)), aortic valve (AV) pressure gradients, the aortic valve area (index) (AVA(I)) and LV mass (index). The invasive measurements compromised the calculation of the CFR and IMR via thermodilution with the use of an intracoronary guidewire with a dual pressure and temperature sensor and administration of IV adenosine.
Results
Mean IMR and CFR were 22.9 ± 14.2 and 2.5 ± 1.5, respectively (Fig. 1). When using the commonly used cut-offs (increased IMR ≥ 25; impaired CFR < 2.0), 29% of patients had high IMR and 33% had low CFR. Patients with normal and high IMR had similar LV EF (p = 0.54), grade of diastolic dysfunction (DD)(p = 0.18), AV peak (p = 0.80) and mean pressure gradient (p = 0.86), AVA (p= 0.80), AVAI (p = 0.92), E/e’ (p = 0.97), LAVI (p = 0.75), LV mass (p = 0.34) and LV mass index (p = 0.59). In contrast, patients with impaired CFR had significantly lower AVA (0.63 vs 0.80 cm2, p = 0.033) and AVAI (0.32 vs 0.43 cm2/m2, p = 0.035) (Fig. 2A). Moreover there was a significant negative correlation between CFR and LAV (r= -0.354, p= 0.019) as well as LAVI (r= -0.428, p= 0.004)(Fig. 2C). Similarly, patients with different DD grades had no significantly different IMR values (p= 0.71), while there was a significant difference with their CFR values (Grade I: 2.9 ± 1.6; Grade II: 3.1 ± 1.7; Grade III: 1.8 ± 0.6, undetermined DD (due to Atrial Fibrillation): 1.6 ± 0.7, ANOVA p= 0.033) (Fig. 2B).
Conclusion
Approximately 30% of patients with severe AS exhibit MVD as assessed by IMR and CFR. In contrast to CFR, IMR values were not related to the severity of valve disease or systolic and diastolic function of the LV. Interestingly, the IMR was also not related to LV hypertrophy. IMR may therefore be the more objective and independent marker of microvascular disease, better suited to evaluate MVD in severe AS patients with chest pain. Abstract Figure 1 Abstract Figure 2

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

Abstract
Human epidemiological studies implicate exposure to infection during gestation in the etiology of neurodevelopmental disorders. Animal models of maternal immune activation (MIA) have identified the maternal immune response as the critical link between maternal infection and aberrant offspring brain and behavior development. Here we evaluate neurodevelopment of male rhesus monkeys (Macaca mulatta) born to MIA-treated dams (n = 14) injected with a modified form of the viral mimic polyinosinic:polycytidylic acid at the end of the first trimester. Control dams received saline injections at the same gestational time points (n = 10) or were untreated (n = 4). MIA-treated dams exhibited a strong immune response as indexed by transient increases in sickness behavior, temperature, and inflammatory cytokines. Although offspring born to control or MIA-treated dams did not differ on measures of physical growth and early developmental milestones, the MIA-treated animals exhibited subtle changes in cognitive development and deviated from species-typical brain growth trajectories. Longitudinal MRI revealed significant gray matter volume reductions in the prefrontal and frontal cortices of MIA-treated offspring at 6 months that persisted through the final time point at 45 months along with smaller frontal white matter volumes in MIA-treated animals at 36 and 45 months. These findings provide the first evidence of early postnatal changes in brain development in MIA-exposed nonhuman primates and establish a translationally relevant model system to explore the neurodevelopmental trajectory of risk associated with prenatal immune challenge from birth through late adolescence.SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT Women exposed to infection during pregnancy have an increased risk of giving birth to a child who will later be diagnosed with a neurodevelopmental disorder. Preclinical maternal immune activation (MIA) models have demonstrated that the effects of maternal infection on fetal brain development are mediated by maternal immune response. Since the majority of MIA models are conducted in rodents, the nonhuman primate provides a unique system to evaluate the MIA hypothesis in a species closely related to humans. Here we report the first longitudinal study conducted in a nonhuman primate MIA model. MIA-exposed offspring demonstrate subtle changes in cognitive development paired with marked reductions in frontal gray and white matter, further supporting the association between prenatal immune challenge and alterations in offspring neurodevelopment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A pediatric injury prevention course has not been available as a massive open online course (MOOC). Creating a comprehensive topic course is particularly challenging because the traditional, week-by-week linear curriculum design is often a barrier to learners interested in only specific topics. We created a novel, flexible course as both a 'choose your topic' MOOC for the public learner and a Small Private Online Course (SPOC) for medical students. METHODS We describe creating 'Injury Prevention for Children and Teens', a course of 59 video learning segments within eight modules taught by a multidisciplinary panel of 25 nationally-recognized experts. Completion tracking and course evaluations were collected. RESULTS In 2.5 years, 4,822 learners from 148 countries have enrolled. Two-thirds of learners were female. Median age of learners was 31 years. For engagement, 19.3% (n = 932) of learners attempted quizzes, and 5.2% (n = 252) participated in online forum discussions. Medical professionals (n = 162) claimed an average of 13 credit hours per learner. Over 200 senior medical students have taken the SPOC. CONCLUSION 'Injury Prevention for Children and Teens' is a novel approach to injury prevention education that is broad, science-based, accessible, and not cost-prohibitive for a diverse group of global learners.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The complexity of oesophageal surgery and the significant risk of morbidity necessitates that oesophagectomy is predominantly performed by a consultant surgeon, or a senior trainee under their supervision. The aim of this study was to determine the impact of trainee involvement in oesophagectomy on postoperative outcomes in an international multicentre setting. METHODS Data from the multicentre Oesophago-Gastric Anastomosis Study Group (OGAA) cohort study were analysed, which comprised prospectively collected data from patients undergoing oesophagectomy for oesophageal cancer between April 2018 and December 2018. Procedures were grouped by the level of trainee involvement, and univariable and multivariable analyses were performed to compare patient outcomes across groups. RESULTS Of 2232 oesophagectomies from 137 centres in 41 countries, trainees were involved in 29.1 per cent of them (n = 650), performing only the abdominal phase in 230, only the chest and/or neck phases in 130, and all phases in 315 procedures. For procedures with a chest anastomosis, those with trainee involvement had similar 90-day mortality, complication and reoperation rates to consultant-performed oesophagectomies (P = 0.451, P = 0.318, and P = 0.382, respectively), while anastomotic leak rates were significantly lower in the trainee groups (P = 0.030). Procedures with a neck anastomosis had equivalent complication, anastomotic leak, and reoperation rates (P = 0.150, P = 0.430, and P = 0.632, respectively) in trainee-involved versus consultant-performed oesophagectomies, with significantly lower 90-day mortality in the trainee groups (P = 0.005). CONCLUSION Trainee involvement was not found to be associated with significantly inferior postoperative outcomes for selected patients undergoing oesophagectomy. The results support continued supervised trainee involvement in oesophageal cancer surgery.

Abstract
Despite many observations of anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) activity related to cognition and affect in humans and nonhuman animals, little is known about the causal role of the ACC in psychological processes. Here, we investigate the causal role of the ACC in affective responding to threat in rhesus monkeys (Macaca mulatta), a species with an ACC largely homologous to humans in structure and connectivity. Male adult monkeys received bilateral ibotenate axon-sparing lesions to the ACC (sulcus and gyrus of areas 24, 32, and 25) and were tested in two classic tasks of monkey threat processing: the human intruder and object responsiveness tasks. Monkeys with ACC lesions did not significantly differ from controls in their overall mean reactivity toward threatening or novel stimuli. However, while control monkeys maintained their reactivity across test days, monkeys with ACC lesions reduced their reactivity toward stimuli as days advanced. Critically, this attenuated reactivity was found even when the stimuli presented each day were novel, suggesting that ACC lesions did not simply cause accelerated adaptation to stimuli as they became less novel over repeated presentations. Rather, these results imply that the primate ACC is necessary for maintaining appropriate affective responses toward potentially harmful and/or novel stimuli. These findings therefore have implications for mood disorders in which responding to threat and novelty is disrupted.SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT Decades of research in humans and nonhuman animals have investigated the role of the anterior cingulate cortex in a huge number and variety of psychological processes spanning cognition and affect, as well as in psychological and neurologic diseases. The structure is broadly implicated in psychological processes and mental and neurologic health, yet its causal role in these processes has largely gone untested, particularly in primates. Here we demonstrate that when anterior cingulate cortex is completely eliminated, rhesus monkeys are initially responsive to threats, but these responses attenuate rather than persist, resembling a pattern of behavior commonly seen in patients diagnosed with mood disorders.

Abstract
Using data samples of 89.5 and 711 fb^{-1} recorded at energies of sqrt[s]=10.52 and 10.58 GeV, respectively, with the Belle detector at the KEKB e^{+}e^{-} collider, we report measurements of branching fractions of semileptonic decays Ξ_{c}^{0}→Ξ^{-}ℓ^{+}ν_{ℓ} (ℓ=e or μ) and the CP-asymmetry parameter of Ξ_{c}^{0}→Ξ^{-}π^{+} decay. The branching fractions are measured to be B(Ξ_{c}^{0}→Ξ^{-}e^{+}ν_{e})=(1.31±0.04±0.07±0.38)% and B(Ξ_{c}^{0}→Ξ^{-}μ^{+}ν_{μ})=(1.27±0.06±0.10±0.37)%, and the decay parameter α_{Ξπ} is measured to be 0.63±0.03±0.01 with much improved precision compared with the current world average. The corresponding ratio B(Ξ_{c}^{0}→Ξ^{-}e^{+}ν_{e})/B(Ξ_{c}^{0}→Ξ^{-}μ^{+}ν_{μ}) is 1.03±0.05±0.07, which is consistent with the expectation of lepton flavor universality. The first measured asymmetry parameter A_{CP}=(α_{Ξ^{-}π^{+}}+α_{Ξ[over ¯]^{+}π^{-}})/(α_{Ξ^{-}π^{+}}-α_{Ξ[over ¯]^{+}π^{-}})=0.024±0.052±0.014 is found to be consistent with zero. The first and the second uncertainties above are statistical and systematic, respectively, while the third ones arise due to the uncertainty of the Ξ_{c}^{0}→Ξ^{-}π^{+} branching fraction.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to examine the diagnostic yield of current fetal echocardiography (FE) indications representing a recent era. METHODS FE reports of all pregnancies referred to two provincial FE programs from 2009 to 2018 were examined, identifying the indication for FE (14 categories), gestational age at referral, and whether there was no fetal heart disease (FHD), mild or possible FHD (e.g., simple ventricular septal defect, possible coarctation), or moderate or severe FHD. RESULTS Over the study period, there were 19,310 unique FE referrals in Alberta (23.3 ± 5.4 weeks' gestation), including 1,907 (9.9%) with moderate or severe and 654 (3.4%) with mild or possible FHD. The most common referral indications included extracardiac pathology or markers (29.7%), maternal diabetes (18.3%), suspected FHD (17.7%), and family history of heart defects (17.7%). The highest yield for moderate or severe FHD was suspected FHD (41.1%; 95% CI, 39.4%-42.7%), followed by suspected or confirmed genetic disorder (15.4%; 95% CI, 12.6%-18.2%), twins or multiples (10.6%; 95% CI, 8.7%-12.5%), oligohydramnios (8.0%; 95% CI, 4.1%-11.9%), extracardiac pathology or markers (6.4%; 95% CI, 5.8%-7.1%), and heart not well seen (5.8%; 95% CI, 4.0%-7.6%). Lowest yields were observed for maternal diabetes (2.2%; 95% CI, 1.7%-2.7%) and family history of heart defects (1.7%; 95% CI, 1.3%-2.2%). Excluding suspected FHD, with two or more FE indications, all other indications demonstrated significant increases in yield of mild or possible (3.5% vs 1.9%, P < .001) and moderate or severe (7.2% vs 2.9%, P < .001) FHD. CONCLUSIONS Suspected FHD provides the highest diagnostic yield of moderate or severe FHD. In contrast, maternal diabetes and family history of heart defects, among the most common referral indications, had diagnostic yields approaching general population risks. Even in the absence of suspected FHD, having two or more referral indications importantly increases the diagnostic yield of all other FE indications.

Abstract
Myelin-oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody-associated disease (MOGAD) is a recently identified autoimmune disorder that presents in both adults and children as CNS demyelination. Although there are clinical phenotypic overlaps between MOGAD, multiple sclerosis, and aquaporin-4 antibody-associated neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) cumulative biological, clinical, and pathological evidence discriminates between these conditions. Patients should not be diagnosed with multiple sclerosis or NMOSD if they have anti-MOG antibodies in their serum. However, many questions related to the clinical characterisation of MOGAD and pathogenetic role of MOG antibodies are still unanswered. Furthermore, therapy is mainly based on standard protocols for aquaporin-4 antibody-associated NMOSD and multiple sclerosis, and more evidence is needed regarding how and when to treat patients with MOGAD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND No evidence currently exists characterising global outcomes following major cancer surgery, including esophageal cancer. Therefore, this study aimed to characterise impact of high income countries (HIC) versus low and middle income countries (LMIC) on the outcomes following esophagectomy for esophageal cancer. METHOD This international multi-center prospective study across 137 hospitals in 41 countries included patients who underwent an esophagectomy for esophageal cancer, with 90-day follow-up. The main explanatory variable was country income, defined according to the World Bank Data classification. The primary outcome was 90-day postoperative mortality, and secondary outcomes were composite leaks (anastomotic leak or conduit necrosis) and major complications (Clavien-Dindo Grade III - V). Multivariable generalized estimating equation models were used to produce adjusted odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CI95%). RESULTS Between April 2018 to December 2018, 2247 patients were included. Patients from HIC were more significantly older, with higher ASA grade, and more advanced tumors. Patients from LMIC had almost three-fold increase in 90-day mortality, compared to HIC (9.4% vs 3.7%, p < 0.001). On adjusted analysis, LMIC were independently associated with higher 90-day mortality (OR: 2.31, CI95%: 1.17-4.55, p = 0.015). However, LMIC were not independently associated with higher rates of anastomotic leaks (OR: 1.06, CI95%: 0.57-1.99, p = 0.9) or major complications (OR: 0.85, CI95%: 0.54-1.32, p = 0.5), compared to HIC. CONCLUSION Resections in LMIC were independently associated with higher 90-day postoperative mortality, likely reflecting a failure to rescue of these patients following esophagectomy, despite similar composite anastomotic leaks and major complication rates to HIC. These findings warrant further research, to identify potential issues and solutions to improve global outcomes following esophagectomy for cancer.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The Esophagectomy Complications Consensus Group (ECCG) and the Dutch Upper Gastrointestinal Cancer Audit (DUCA) have set standards in reporting outcomes after oesophagectomy. Reporting outcomes from selected high-volume centres or centralized national cancer programmes may not, however, be reflective of the true global prevalence of complications. This study aimed to compare complication rates after oesophagectomy from these existing sources with those of an unselected international cohort from the Oesophago-Gastric Anastomosis Audit (OGAA). METHODS The OGAA was a prospective multicentre cohort study coordinated by the West Midlands Research Collaborative, and included patients undergoing oesophagectomy for oesophageal cancer between April and December 2018, with 90 days of follow-up. RESULTS The OGAA study included 2247 oesophagectomies across 137 hospitals in 41 countries. Comparisons with the ECCG and DUCA found differences in baseline demographics between the three cohorts, including age, ASA grade, and rates of chronic pulmonary disease. The OGAA had the lowest rates of neoadjuvant treatment (OGAA 75.1 per cent, ECCG 78.9 per cent, DUCA 93.5 per cent; P < 0.001). DUCA exhibited the highest rates of minimally invasive surgery (OGAA 57.2 per cent, ECCG 47.9 per cent, DUCA 85.8 per cent; P < 0.001). Overall complication rates were similar in the three cohorts (OGAA 63.6 per cent, ECCG 59.0 per cent, DUCA 62.2 per cent), with no statistically significant difference in Clavien-Dindo grades (P = 0.752). However, a significant difference in 30-day mortality was observed, with DUCA reporting the lowest rate (OGAA 3.2 per cent, ECCG 2.4 per cent, DUCA 1.7 per cent; P = 0.013). CONCLUSION Despite differences in rates of co-morbidities, oncological treatment strategies, and access to minimal-access surgery, overall complication rates were similar in the three cohorts.
