Abstract
BACKGROUND Incisional hernias cause morbidity and may require further surgery. HART (Hughes Abdominal Repair Trial) assessed the effect of an alternative suture method on the incidence of incisional hernia following colorectal cancer surgery. METHODS A pragmatic multicentre single-blind RCT allocated patients undergoing midline incision for colorectal cancer to either Hughes closure (double far-near-near-far sutures of 1 nylon suture at 2-cm intervals along the fascia combined with conventional mass closure) or the surgeon's standard closure. The primary outcome was the incidence of incisional hernia at 1 year assessed by clinical examination. An intention-to-treat analysis was performed. RESULTS Between August 2014 and February 2018, 802 patients were randomized to either Hughes closure (401) or the standard mass closure group (401). At 1 year after surgery, 672 patients (83.7 per cent) were included in the primary outcome analysis; 50 of 339 patients (14.8 per cent) in the Hughes group and 57 of 333 (17.1 per cent) in the standard closure group had incisional hernia (OR 0.84, 95 per cent c.i. 0.55 to 1.27; P = 0.402). At 2 years, 78 patients (28.7 per cent) in the Hughes repair group and 84 (31.8 per cent) in the standard closure group had incisional hernia (OR 0.86, 0.59 to 1.25; P = 0.429). Adverse events were similar in the two groups, apart from the rate of surgical-site infection, which was higher in the Hughes group (13.2 versus 7.7 per cent; OR 1.82, 1.14 to 2.91; P = 0.011). CONCLUSION The incidence of incisional hernia after colorectal cancer surgery is high. There was no statistical difference in incidence between Hughes closure and mass closure at 1 or 2 years.

Abstract
Running gait assessment and running shoe recommendation is important for the injury prevention of runners who exhibit different skill-levels and running styles. Traditionally, running gait assessment for shoe recommendation relies upon a combination of trained professionals (e.g., sports-therapists, physiotherapists) and complex equipment such as motion or pressure sensors, often incurring a high-cost to the consumer. Despite this, assessments are still prone to subjectivity, and may differ between assessors. Alternatively, methods to provide low-cost, reproduceable gait assessment has become a necessity, especially within a habitual (low-resource) context, with many traditional methods generally unavailable due to the need of professional assistance and more recently the COVID-19 pandemic. Fuzzy logic has shown to be an effective tool in the assessment and identification of gait by providing the potential for a high-accuracy methodology, while retaining a low computational cost; ideal for applications within embedded systems. Here, we present a novel shoe recommendation fuzzy inference system from the classification of two key running gait parameters, foot strike and pronation from a single foot mounted internet of thing (IoT) enabled wearable inertial measurement unit. The fuzzy approach provides excellent (ICC > 0.9) accuracy, while significantly increasing the resolution of the gait assessment technique, providing a more detailed running gait analysis.

Meteoroid Fragmentation in the Martian Atmosphere and the Formation of Crater Clusters. JOURNAL OF GEOPHYSICAL RESEARCH. PLANETS 2022; 127:e2021JE007149. [PMID: 36247718 PMCID: PMC9541127 DOI: 10.1029/2021je007149] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/06/2021] [Revised: 05/20/2022] [Accepted: 06/18/2022] [Indexed: 06/16/2023]
Abstract
The current rate of small impacts on Mars is informed by more than one thousand impact sites formed in the last 20 years, detected in images of the martian surface. More than half of these impacts produced a cluster of small craters formed by fragmentation of the meteoroid in the martian atmosphere. The spatial distributions, number and sizes of craters in these clusters provide valuable constraints on the properties of the impacting meteoroid population as well as the meteoroid fragmentation process. In this paper, we use a recently compiled database of crater cluster observations to calibrate a model of meteoroid fragmentation in Mars' atmosphere and constrain key model parameters, including the lift coefficient and fragment separation velocity, as well as meteoroid property distributions. The model distribution of dynamic meteoroid strength that produces the best match to observations has a minimum strength of 10-90 kPa, a maximum strength of 3-6 MPa and a median strength of 0.2-0.5 MPa. An important feature of the model is that individual fragmentation events are able to produce fragments with a wide range of dynamic strengths as much as 10 times stronger or weaker than the parent fragment. The calibrated model suggests that the rate of small impacts on Mars is 1.5-4 times higher than recent observation-based estimates. It also shows how impactor properties relevant to seismic wave generation, such as the total impact momentum, can be inferred from cluster characteristics.

Abstract
Fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva is an autosomal dominant condition that causes cervical spine fusion and ankylosis of the temporomandibular joint, resulting in anaesthetic challenges. Awake tracheal intubation with flexible bronchoscopy is recommended for general anaesthetics required by patients with this disease. This case report describes the novel approach of using dexmedetomidine sedation in combination with local anaesthesia to allow dental extraction of the fifth and seventh upper left teeth in a patient with fibrodyplasia ossificans progressive, who had a known difficult airway and profound thrombocytopenia. This procedure was not previously tolerated by the patient under local anaesthesia alone. The use of dexmedetomidine was successful in facilitating completion of the procedure with a high degree of patient satisfaction. We discuss the advantages of dexmedetomidine over other sedative agents due to its minimal effects on respiratory drive and airway muscle tone. We highlight the use of dexmedetomidine for complex cases such as this, where tracheal intubation is potentially challenging, but the procedure itself could be managed under sedation and local anaesthesia.

Abstract
Running gait assessment for shoe type recommendation to avoid injury often takes place within commercial premises. That is not representative of a natural running environment and may influence normal/usual running characteristics. Typically, assessments are costly and performed by an untrained biomechanist or physiotherapist. Thus, use of a low-cost assessment of running gait to recommend shoe type is warranted. Indeed, the recent impact of COVID has heightened the need for a shift toward remote assessment in general due to social-distancing guidelines and restriction of movement to bespoke assessment facilities. Mymo is a Bluetooth-enabled, inertial measurement unit (IMU) wearable worn on the foot. The wearable transmits inertial data via a smartphone application to the Cloud, where algorithms work to recommend a running shoe based upon the users/runner's pronation and foot-strike location/pattern. Here, an additional algorithm is presented to quantify ground contact time and swing/flight time within the Mymo platform to further inform the assessment of a runner's gait. A large cohort of healthy adult and adolescents (n=203, 91M:112F) were recruited to run on a treadmill while wearing the Mymo wearable. Validity of the inertial-based algorithm to quantify ground contact time was established through manual labelling of reference standard ground truth video data, with a presented accuracy between 96.6-98.7% across the two classes with respect to each foot.Clinical Relevance-This establishes the validity of a ground contact and swing times for runner with a low-cost IoT wearable.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION To explore the reported variability in the surgical management of ileocolonic Crohn' s disease and identify areas of standard practice, we present this study which aims to assess how different colorectal surgeons with a subspecialty interest in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) surgery may act in different clinical scenarios of ileocolonic Crohn's disease. METHODS Anonymous videos demonstrating the small bowel walkthrough and anonymised patients' clinical data, imaging and pathological findings were distributed to the surgeons using an electronic tool. Surgeons answered on operative strategy, bowel resections, management of small bowel mesentery, type of anastomosis and use of stomas. RESULTS Eight small bowel walkthrough videos were registered and 12 assessors completed the survey with a questionnaire completion rate of 87.5%. There was 87.7% agreement in the need to perform an ileocolonic resection. However, the agreement for the need to perform associated surgical procedures such as strictureplasties or further bowel resections was only 57.4%. When an anastomosis was fashioned, the side to side configuration was the most commonly used. The preferred management of the mesentery was dissection close to the bowel. CONCLUSIONS The decision on the main procedure to be performed had a high agreement amongst the different assessors, but the treatment of multifocal disease was highly controversial, with low agreement on the need for associated procedures to treat internal fistulae and the use of strictureplasties. At the same time, there was significant heterogeneity in the decision on when to anastomose and when to fashion an ileostomy.

Abstract
Background:Rheumatic diseases frequently affect females of child-bearing age, with implications for foetal and maternal outcomes.Two-thirds (66%) of the women who died in the 2016-18 MBRRACE report were known to have pre-existing medical problems1. The NHS long-term plan supports creation of Maternal Medicine Networks to facilitate access to specialist care and advice in pregnancy.Guidelines exist for use of disease modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (DMARDs) during pregnancy but other aspects of pregnancy related care in rheumatic disease remain less well defined. The Wessex wide connective tissue disease (CTD) network provides a multi-disciplinary forum to discuss cases, to obtain approval for high cost drugs, to compare practice in multiple hospitals but does not specifically discuss pregnancy related uncertainties.Objectives:To survey variations in clinical practice relating to rheumatic disease in pregnancyMethods:Following careful project planning with the tertiary referral centre obstetric lead consultant for maternal medicine, several areas of care were identified which were prone to local and individual variation. An anonymous online survey relating to these specific areas of pregnancy related care was circulated amongst members of the CTD network, including rheumatology consultants, rheumatology practitioners and specialist trainees.Results:16 responses were obtained across 7 hospital sites; 56% were from rheumatology consultants. 12/16 (75%) reported routinely offering contraceptive advice when prescribing DMARDs. Only 4/16 (25%) were aware of a specific pre-natal obstetric clinic available in their hospital. There was major variation in planned frequency of clinical review. 10/16 would increase frequency of review during pregnancy if a patient’s disease became active or unstable; 6/16 would aim to review patients approximately 3 monthly; 3/16 would not routinely increase frequency of review during pregnancy. Planned post-natal care was equally varied. 3/16 would routinely prescribe aspirin to all lupus women during pregnancy despite this being recommended for all women with SLE for prevention of pre-eclampsia2. Prescription of low molecular weight heparin was variable, and several responses were at odds with the current RCOG guidance on the subject3. 8/16 (50%) would prescribe corticosteroids judiciously in case of an acute disease flare.Conclusion:This survey has revealed significant variation in practice relating to rheumatic disease in pregnancy. Integrated care with colleagues from the regional referral centre for maternal medicine is required, in keeping with the recently published NICE guidance on the subject4. Adopting a hub and spoke model, with local centres working closely alongside a tertiary centre, will help optimise peri-partum care and outcome for patients with long-term rheumatic conditions.References:[1]Mothers and Babies: Reducing Risk through Audits and Confidential Enquiries across the UK (MBRRACE-UK) Saving Lives, Improving Mothers’ Care Maternal Report (December 2020).

Abstract
Prompt and reliable diagnosis of invasive pulmonary aspergillosis (IPA) is essential for early initiation of antifungal therapy. We evaluated bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluid IMMY Sona Aspergillus lateral-flow assay (IMMY LFA) in 92 individuals with suspected pulmonary infection. Sensitivity and specificity (vs. host factor but no IPA) of BAL IMMY LFA for diagnosis of IPA in individuals with any European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer-defied "host factor" were 67% and 85%, respectively. Performance appeared better in individuals with renal transplantation (100%, 100%), compared to those with hematological malignancy and/or allogenic stem cell transplantation (70%, 78%). We found BAL IMMY LFA to be a convenient and useful addition to our diagnostic armory for IPA. LAY ABSTRACT We evaluated a new test for diagnosing invasive pulmonary aspergillosis from bronchoscopy samples. We tested 92 people and found that it was 67% sensitive and 85% specific (compared to diagnosis according to a set of internationally recognised criteria). We found this test convenient and useful.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aimed to determine the impact of preoperative exposure to intravenous contrast for CT and the risk of developing postoperative acute kidney injury (AKI) in patients undergoing major gastrointestinal surgery. METHODS This prospective, multicentre cohort study included adults undergoing gastrointestinal resection, stoma reversal or liver resection. Both elective and emergency procedures were included. Preoperative exposure to intravenous contrast was defined as exposure to contrast administered for the purposes of CT up to 7 days before surgery. The primary endpoint was the rate of AKI within 7 days. Propensity score-matched models were adjusted for patient, disease and operative variables. In a sensitivity analysis, a propensity score-matched model explored the association between preoperative exposure to contrast and AKI in the first 48 h after surgery. RESULTS A total of 5378 patients were included across 173 centres. Overall, 1249 patients (23·2 per cent) received intravenous contrast. The overall rate of AKI within 7 days of surgery was 13·4 per cent (718 of 5378). In the propensity score-matched model, preoperative exposure to contrast was not associated with AKI within 7 days (odds ratio (OR) 0·95, 95 per cent c.i. 0·73 to 1·21; P = 0·669). The sensitivity analysis showed no association between preoperative contrast administration and AKI within 48 h after operation (OR 1·09, 0·84 to 1·41; P = 0·498). CONCLUSION There was no association between preoperative intravenous contrast administered for CT up to 7 days before surgery and postoperative AKI. Risk of contrast-induced nephropathy should not be used as a reason to avoid contrast-enhanced CT.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to assess the efficacy of an endoluminal vacuum device (Endo-SPONGE®) in the treatment of rectal anastomotic leaks. METHODS All studies looking at endoluminal vacuum therapy with Endo-SPONGE® in the treatment of rectal anastomotic leaks were included. A comprehensive search was conducted as per Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. Primary outcome was defined as the rate of total anastomotic salvage, with secondary outcomes including rate of ileostomy closure, additional transrectal closures and functional outcomes RESULTS: Sixteen studies met the inclusion criteria. There was a significant publication bias (z = 3.53, p = 0.0004). Two hundred sixty-six patients were identified. The median treatment failure rate was 11.8% (range 0-44%), with random effects model of 0.17 (95% CI 0.11-0.22). There was improvement with early therapy start (OR 3.48) and negative correlation with neoadjuvant radiotherapy (OR 0.56). Fifty-one percent of all diverting stomas were closed at the end of treatment period and 12.8% of patients required an additional trans-rectal closure of the abscess cavity. CONCLUSIONS Endo-SPONGE® seems to be a useful method of rectal anastomotic leak treatment in selected group of patients; however, the quality of available data is poor and it is impossible to draw a final conclusion. There is unexpected high rate of permanent ileostomy. There is a need for further assessment of this therapy with well-designed randomised or cohort studies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Assessment of the entire small bowel is advocated during Crohn's disease (CD) surgery, as intraoperative detection of new lesions may lead to change in the planned procedure. The aim of this study was to evaluate the inter-observer variability in the assessment of extent and severity of CD at the small bowel laparoscopic "walkthrough". METHODS A survey on laparoscopic assessment of the small bowel in patients with CD, including items adapted from the MREnterography or ultrasound in Crohn's disease (METRIC) study and from the classification of severity of mesenteric disease was developed by an invited committee of colorectal surgeons. Anonymous laparoscopic videos demonstrating the small bowel "walkthrough" in ileocolonic resection for primary and recurrent CD were distributed to the committee members together with the anonymous survey. The primary outcome was the rate of inter-observer variability on assessment of strictures, dilatations, complications and severity of mesenteric inflammation. RESULTS 12 assessors completed the survey on 8 small bowel walkthrough videos. The evaluation of the small bowel thickening and of the mesenteric fat wrapping were the most reliable assessments with an overall agreement of 87.1% (k = 0.31; 95% CI - 0.22, 0.84) and 82.7% (k = 0.35; 95% CI - 0.04, 0.73), respectively. The presence of strictures and pre-stenotic dilatation demonstrated agreement of 75.2% (k = 0.06: 95% CI - 0.33, 0.45) and 71.2% (k = 0.33; 95% CI 0.15, 0.51), respectively. Evaluation of fistulae had an overall agreement of 75.3%, while there was a significant variation in the evaluation of mild, moderate and severe mesenteric disease with overall agreement ranging from 33.3 to 100%. CONCLUSION Laparoscopic assessment of the small bowel thickening and of the presence of mesenteric fat wrapping is reliable for the intraoperative evaluation of CD with high inter-rater agreement. There is significant heterogeneity in the assessment of the severity of the mesenteric disease involvement.

Paleo-Rock-Hosted Life on Earth and the Search on Mars: A Review and Strategy for Exploration. ASTROBIOLOGY 2019; 19:1230-1262. [PMID: 31237436 PMCID: PMC6786346 DOI: 10.1089/ast.2018.1960] [Citation(s) in RCA: 29] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/23/2018] [Accepted: 04/25/2019] [Indexed: 05/19/2023]
Abstract
Here we review published studies on the abundance and diversity of terrestrial rock-hosted life, the environments it inhabits, the evolution of its metabolisms, and its fossil biomarkers to provide guidance in the search for life on Mars. Key findings are (1) much terrestrial deep subsurface metabolic activity relies on abiotic energy-yielding fluxes and in situ abiotic and biotic recycling of metabolic waste products rather than on buried organic products of photosynthesis; (2) subsurface microbial cell concentrations are highest at interfaces with pronounced chemical redox gradients or permeability variations and do not correlate with bulk host rock organic carbon; (3) metabolic pathways for chemolithoautotrophic microorganisms evolved earlier in Earth's history than those of surface-dwelling phototrophic microorganisms; (4) the emergence of the former occurred at a time when Mars was habitable, whereas the emergence of the latter occurred at a time when the martian surface was not continually habitable; (5) the terrestrial rock record has biomarkers of subsurface life at least back hundreds of millions of years and likely to 3.45 Ga with several examples of excellent preservation in rock types that are quite different from those preserving the photosphere-supported biosphere. These findings suggest that rock-hosted life would have been more likely to emerge and be preserved in a martian context. Consequently, we outline a Mars exploration strategy that targets subsurface life and scales spatially, focusing initially on identifying rocks with evidence for groundwater flow and low-temperature mineralization, then identifying redox and permeability interfaces preserved within rock outcrops, and finally focusing on finding minerals associated with redox reactions and associated traces of carbon and diagnostic chemical and isotopic biosignatures. Using this strategy on Earth yields ancient rock-hosted life, preserved in the fossil record and confirmable via a suite of morphologic, organic, mineralogical, and isotopic fingerprints at micrometer scale. We expect an emphasis on rock-hosted life and this scale-dependent strategy to be crucial in the search for life on Mars.

Macro-to-nanoscale investigation of wall-plate joints in the acorn barnacle Semibalanus balanoides: correlative imaging, biological form and function, and bioinspiration. J R Soc Interface 2019; 16:20190218. [PMID: 31387487 PMCID: PMC6731510 DOI: 10.1098/rsif.2019.0218] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/26/2019] [Accepted: 06/25/2019] [Indexed: 11/12/2022] Open
Abstract
Correlative imaging combines information from multiple modalities (physical-chemical-mechanical properties) at various length scales (centimetre to nanometre) to understand the complex biological materials across dimensions (2D-3D). Here, we have used numerous coupled systems: X-ray microscopy (XRM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD), optical light microscopy (LM) and focused ion beam (FIB-SEM) microscopy to ascertain the microstructural and crystallographic properties of the wall-plate joints in the barnacle Semibalanus balanoides. The exoskeleton is composed of six interlocking wall plates, and the interlocks between neighbouring plates (alae) allow barnacles to expand and grow while remaining sealed and structurally strong. Our results indicate that the ala contain functionally graded orientations and microstructures in their crystallography, which has implications for naturally functioning microstructures, potential natural strengthening and preferred oriented biomineralization. Elongated grains at the outer edge of the ala are oriented perpendicularly to the contact surface, and the c-axis rotates with the radius of the ala. Additionally, we identify for the first time three-dimensional nanoscale ala pore networks revealing that the pores are only visible at the tip of the ala and that pore thickening occurs on the inside (soft bodied) edge of the plates. The pore networks appear to have the same orientation as the oriented crystallography, and we deduce that the pore networks are probably organic channels and pockets, which are involved with the biomineralization process. Understanding these multiscale features contributes towards an understanding of the structural architecture in barnacles, but also their consideration for bioinspiration of human-made materials. The work demonstrates that correlative methods spanning different length scales, dimensions and modes enable the extension of the structure-property relationships in materials to form and function of organisms.

Abstract
Background and Purpose—
Many patients with acute ischemic stroke are not eligible for thrombolysis or mechanical reperfusion therapies due to contraindications, inaccessible vascular occlusions, late presentation, or large infarct core. Sphenopalatine ganglion (SPG) stimulation to enhance collateral flow and stabilize the blood-brain barrier offers an alternative, potentially more widely deliverable, therapy.
Methods—
In a randomized, sham-controlled, double-masked trial at 41 centers in 7 countries, patients with anterior circulation ischemic stroke not treated with reperfusion therapies within 24 hours of onset were randomly allocated to active SPG stimulation or sham control. The primary efficacy outcome was improvement beyond expectations on the modified Rankin Scale of global disability at 90 days (sliding dichotomy), assessed in the modified intention-to-treat population. The initial planned sample size was 660 patients, but the trial was stopped early when technical improvements in device placement occurred, so that analysis of accumulated experience could be conducted to inform a successor trial.
Results—
Among 303 enrolled patients, 253 received at least one active SPG or sham stimulation, constituting the modified intention-to-treat population (153 SPG stimulation and 100 sham control). Age was median 73 years (interquartile range, 64–79), 52.6% were female, deficit severity on the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale was median 11 (interquartile range, 9–15), and time from last known well median 18.6 hours (interquartile range, 14.5–22.5). For the primary outcome, improved 3-month disability beyond expectations, rates in the SPG versus sham treatment groups were 49.7% versus 40.0%; odds ratio, 1.48 (95% CI, 0.89–2.47);
P
=0.13. A significant treatment interaction with stroke location (cortical versus noncortical) was noted,
P
=0.04. In the 87 patients with confirmed cortical involvement, rates of improvement beyond expectations were 50.0% versus 27.0%; odds ratio, 2.70 (95% CI, 1.08–6.73);
P
=0.03. Similar response patterns were observed for all prespecified secondary efficacy outcomes. No differences in mortality or serious adverse event safety end points were observed.
Conclusions—
SPG stimulation within 24 hours of onset is safe in acute ischemic stroke. SPG stimulation was not shown to statistically significantly improve 3-month disability above expectations, though favorable outcomes were nominally higher with SPG stimulation. Beneficial effects may distinctively be conferred in patients with confirmed cortical involvement. The results of this study need to be confirmed in a larger pivotal study.

Abstract
Purpose Anemia is associated with poor treatment results for a variety of cancers. The effect of low hemoglobin levels on long-term outcomes after the treatment of patients with an anal squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) remains unclear. For that reason, this study aimed to investigate the effect of anemia on treatment outcomes following chemoradiation for an anal SCC. Methods This was a retrospective study of all patients who underwent curative treatment for an anal SCC between 2009 and 2015 at 2 trusts in the United Kingdom. Data were collated from prospectively collected cancer databases and were cross-checked with operating-room records and records in the hospitals’ patient management systems. Results We identified 103 patients with a median age of 63 years (range, 36–84 years). The median overall survival was 39 months (range, 9–90 months), and the disease-free survival was 36 months (range, 2–90 months). During the follow-up period, 16.5% patients died and 13.6% patients developed recurrence. Twenty-two people were anemic prior to treatment, with a female preponderance (20 of 22). No differences in disease-free survival (P = 0.74) and overall survival (P = 0.12) were noted between patients with anemia and those with normal hemoglobin levels. On regression the analysis, the combination of anemia, the presence of a defunctioning colostomy, lymph-node involvement and higher tumor stage correlated with poor overall survival. Conclusion In this study, anemia did not influence disease-free survival or overall survival. We suggest that the interaction between anemia and survival is more complex than previously demonstrated and potentially reliant on other coexisting factors.

Abstract
AIM Anastomotic leak (AL) is a major complication of rectal cancer surgery. Despite advances in surgical practice, the rates of AL have remained static, at around 10-15%. The aetiology of AL is multifactorial, but one of the most crucial risk factors, which is mostly under the control of the surgeon, is blood supply to the anastomosis. The MRC/NIHR IntAct study will determine whether assessment of anastomotic perfusion using a fluorescent dye (indocyanine green) and near-infrared laparoscopy can minimize the rate of AL leak compared with conventional white-light laparoscopy. Two mechanistic sub-studies will explore the role of the rectal microbiome in AL and the predictive value of CT angiography/perfusion studies. METHOD IntAct is a prospective, unblinded, parallel-group, multicentre, European, randomized controlled trial comparing surgery with intra-operative fluorescence angiography (IFA) against standard care (surgery with no IFA). The primary end-point is rate of clinical AL at 90 days following surgery. Secondary end-points include all AL (clinical and radiological), change in planned anastomosis, complications and re-interventions, use of stoma, cost-effectiveness of the intervention and quality of life. Patients should have a diagnosis of adenocarcinoma of the rectum suitable for potentially curative surgery by anterior resection. Over 3 years, 880 patients from 25 European centres will be recruited and followed up for 90 days. DISCUSSION IntAct will rigorously evaluate the use of IFA in rectal cancer surgery and explore the role of the microbiome in AL and the predictive value of preoperative CT angiography/perfusion scanning.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although rare, 70% of equine fatalities during recovery from general anaesthesia (GA) are due to catastrophic fractures from poor recovery quality. OBJECTIVE To determine the effect of repeated GA recovery on GA recovery quality. STUDY DESIGN Experimental blinded trial. METHODS Eight adult horses underwent six GA events on sevoflurane for distal limb MRI examination over a 14-week period. Prior to GA recovery, xylazine was administered. Randomly ordered video-recorded GA recoveries were scored by three blinded board certified veterinary anaesthesiologists, unaware of patient identity or GA event number, for nine parameters using a 100 mm visual analogue scale (VAS) where 0 = worst and 100 = best. The number of attempts to stand, duration of lateral and sternal recumbency, total recovery duration and physiologic parameters during each GA event were recorded. Repeated measures ANOVA were used to detect differences. Agreement between observer VAS scores was determined via inter-rater reliability using an intraclass correlation. RESULTS With GA recovery experience, VAS scores for balance and coordination, knuckling, and overall quality of recovery were improved and the duration of lateral recumbency was increased. There were no differences in total recovery duration, number of attempts to stand, physiologic parameters other than heart rate during GA, or VAS scores for activity in lateral recumbency, move to sternal, move to stand, or strength. MAIN LIMITATIONS Each GA event was relatively short and there was no surgical stimulation. The same results may not occur if there was surgical stimulation and pain during each GA event. CONCLUSION Recovery from GA improves with multiple anaesthetic episodes in horses. Clinicians can advise clients that horses are likely to have better GA recovery on repeated GA recovery due to improved balance and coordination and reduced knuckling. Additionally, there is no change in anaesthetic morbidity with six repeated GA events over a 14-week period.
