Abstract
BACKGROUND Radiologically-confirmed pneumonia (RCP) is a specific end-point used in trials of Pneumococcal Conjugate Vaccine (PCV) to estimate vaccine efficacy. However, chest radiograph (CXR) interpretation varies within and between readers. We measured the repeatability and reliability of paediatric CXR interpretation using percent agreement and Cohen's Kappa and the validity of field readings against expert review in a study of the impact of PCV on pneumonia. METHODS CXRs were obtained from 2716 children admitted between 2006 and 2014 to Kilifi County Hospital, Kilifi, Kenya, with clinically-defined severe or very-severe pneumonia. Five clinicians and radiologists attended a three-day training course on CXR interpretation using a WHO standard. All CXRs were read once by two local primary readers. Discordant readings and 13% of concordant readings were arbitrated by a panel of three expert radiologists. To assess repeatability, a 5% median random sample was presented twice. Sensitivity and specificity of the primary readers' interpretations was estimated against the 'gold-standard' of the arbitrators' results. RESULTS Of 2716 CXRs, 2 were uninterpretable and 159 were evaluated twice. The percent agreement and Kappa for RCP were 89% and 0.68 and ranged between 84-97% and 0.19-0.68, respectively, for all pathological findings. Intra-observer repeatability was similar to inter-observer reliability. Sensitivities of the primary readers to detect RCP were 69% and 73%; specificities were 96% and 95%. CONCLUSION Intra- and inter-observer agreements on interpretations of radiologically-confirmed pneumonia are fair to good. Reasonable sensitivity and high specificity make radiologically-confirmed pneumonia, determined in the field, a suitable measure of relative vaccine effectiveness.

Abstract
The complex dielectric function ([Formula: see text]) of WSe2 monolayer grown by atomic layer deposition is investigated using spectroscopic ellipsometry. Band structure parameters are obtained by standard line-shape analysis of the second-energy-derivative of [Formula: see text] spectra. The fundamental band gap is observed at 2.26 eV, corresponds to transition between valence band (VB) maximum at the K point and conduction band (CB) minimum at Q point in the Brillouin zone (BZ). Two strong so-called A and B excitonic peaks in [Formula: see text] spectra originate from vertical transitions from spin-orbit split (0.43 eV) VB to CB at K point of the BZ. Binding energies of A and B exactions are 0.71 and 0.28 eV, respectively. Well resolved five excited excitons states has been detected within the spectral region between A and B. Energy profile of the Rydberg series shows significant deviation from the hydrogenic behavior, discussed in connection with the 2D hydrogen model. Results presented here will improve our understanding about the optical response of 2D materials and will help to design better optoelectronic applications and validate theoretical considerations.

Abstract
Branching morphogenesis is a crucial part of early developmental processes in diverse organs, but the detailed mechanism of this morphogenic event remains to be elucidated. Here we introduce an unknown mechanism leading to branching morphogenesis using mouse embryonic organotypic cultures with time-lapse live imaging. We found spatially expressed L-type voltage-dependent Ca2+ channels (VDCCs) in the peripheral layers of developing epithelial buds and identified the VDCCs as a core signaling mediator for patterning branching architecture. In this process, differential growth in peripheral layers by VDCC-induced ERK activity promoted cleft formation through an epithelial buckling-folding mechanism. Our findings reveal an unexpected role of VDCCs in developmental processes, and address a fundamental question regarding the initial process of branching morphogenesis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The present study aimed to identify independent correlates of toenail selenium levels and to examine the association between toenail selenium levels and metabolic syndrome in Korean adults. METHODS Cross-sectional analysis was conducted using baseline data from the Trace Element Study of Korean Adults in the Yeungnam area, an ongoing cohort study of Korean adults over the age of 35 years. The baseline survey consisted of questionnaires on demographics, lifestyle characteristics and medical information. Dietary information was obtained through a validated semi-quantitative food frequency questionnaire. Toenail selenium levels were quantified using neutron activation analysis. Biomarkers associated with metabolic syndrome were obtained from biennial medical check-ups. RESULTS In the multivariable-adjusted analyses, independent lifestyle and dietary correlates of higher selenium levels were alcohol drinking (4.62% higher than nondrinking) and egg intake (0.43% higher per weekly serving), whereas current smoking (5.42% lower than nonsmoking) and vegetable consumption (0.05% lower per weekly serving) were associated with lower toenail selenium levels. In the multivariable adjusted logistic regression, no significant association was observed between toenail selenium levels and metabolic syndrome (odds ratio = 1.33, 95% confidence interval = 0.58-3.05). CONCLUSIONS Multiple lifestyle and dietary factors influenced toenail selenium levels, although no meaningful association was observed between toenail selenium levels and metabolic syndrome in Korean adults. Future prospective large-scale cohort studies are required to determine whether there is a causal relationship between selenium levels and metabolic syndrome in Korean adults.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction: Estrogen Receptor 1 (ESR1) gene encodes an estrogen receptor, which regulates cell proliferation and promotes tumor progression in estrogen receptor(ER)-positive breast cancer (BC). Therefore, endocrine therapy that inhibiting ER downstream signal, is the most effective treatment strategy in ER-positive BC. However, about 25% of patients with primary disease and almost all patients with metastases will present with or eventually develop endocrine resistance. And genetic alteration of ESR1 is now identified as the endocrine resistance mechanism. However, a few data from clinical trials or public data base exists and could not reflect real world clinic. Therefore, we aimed to identify the frequency and type of ESR1 genetic alterations in BCs through this large scaled study.
Methods: We performed targeted ultra-deep sequencing (CancerSCAN™) using BC tissue specimens. This sequencing was covered entire coding area of ESR1 gene and also detected copy number alteration and translocation of ESR1.
Results: Targeted ultra-deep sequencing of ESR1 was performed using 618 BC tissues. Of 618 tissue samples, 253(40.9%) were MBCs, 362(58.6%) were early BCs (EBCs) and 3 were not identified. In terms of subtypes, 220 ER-positive BCs, 122 ER-positive and HER2-positive BCs, 119 HER2-positive and 153 triple-negative BCs (TNBCs) were included. BCs from patients under 40 year-old were 277(44.8%)(Median: 43.0, range: 23.5 -75.6). ESR1 genetic alterations were identified in 21 BCs (5 EBCs and 16 MBCs). In EBCs, 3 cases were observed in TNBCs and 2 cases were in ER-positive BCs (2.6% and 1.2%, respectively). All five EBC were treatment naïve status. Of 16 cases of ESR1 alterations in MBCs, 10 cases of ESR1 alterations were detected in ER-positive BCs (17.6%), 5cases in ER and HER2-positive BCs(6.7%) and 1 in HER2-positive BCs (1.2%). All ER-positive MBCs were treated with more than one line of endocrine therapy. Most commonly detected genetic alteration was single nucleotide variant (SNV) (15 of 21, 71.4%). Thirteen were in ligand binding domain and two cases occurred in activation function-1 (AF-1) domain (P79A and G145S). D538G and V392I were most frequently mutated loci followed by Y537N (3, 3 and 2 cases, respectively) and only metastatic ER-positive BCs harbored ESR1 activating mutation. Four copy number (CN) amplification in 2 ER-positive and 2 ER and HER2-positive BCs, one CN deletion in TNBC and one ESR1 fusion in ER and HER2-positive BC were also detected (19.0%, 4.8% and 4.8%, respectively). In frame ESR1 fusion was occurred between ESR1 and NPHS1 genes.
Conclusion: In this experimental study, ESR1 genetic alterations were frequently detected in ER-positive MBC but ER-negative or EBC also harbored. The type of genetic alterations varied including SNVs, CN alterations and translocation and ESR1-NPHS1 fusion is the novel genetic alteration that has not been reported. To identify the role of ESR1 genetic alteration in ER-negative BCs and novel translocation, further functional validation would be warranted (Clinical trials.gov Number :NCT02591966).

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction: Poziotinib is a novel, pan-HER kinase inhibitor which showed potent anti-tumor activities through irreversible inhibition of HER family tyrosine kinases in preclinical and early clinical studies. Recent the open-label, multicenter phase II trial of poziotinib monotherapy evaluated that poziotinib is a new promising option for patients with HER2-positive metastatic BC who have failed more than two HER2 targeted therapy (NCT02418689). We evaluated genetic profiles of HER2-positive metastatic BC and investigated potential biomarkers of poziotinib for HER2-positive metastatic BC (MBC). Methods: All participants were diagnosed as HER2-positive BCs according to American Society of Clinical Oncology/College of American Pathologists HER2 guideline and provided tissue specimens that would be possible to extract DNA and RNA for next generation sequencing. We performed targeted deep sequencing with a customized 381 cancer gene panel (CancerSCAN™) and analyzed the relationship among the sequencing data, immunohistochemistry and clinical outcome.
Results: From Apr 2015 to Feb 2016, 106 patients were enrolled in the trial from 7 institutes in Korea. Of 106 patients, biomarker data were available for 79 patients. TP53 was the most frequently mutated gene (70.8%) followed by PIK3CA (45.6%). HER2 single nucleotide variant (SNV) was detected in 13 BCs (16.5%) and HER3 SNV was in 9 (11.4%). The score of HER2 immunohistochemistry (IHC) was 3+ in 68 BCs and 2+ with positive in situ hybridization in 11 BCs. In copy number variant (CNV) analysis, HER2 amplification (86.1%) was most frequently observed and followed by CDK12 amplification (58.2%) and APOBEC3B deletion (30.4%). IHC score of HER2 was positively correlated to copy number (CN) of HER2 (P=0.001) but 11 breast cancer tissue did not have copy number amplification of HER2 (13.9%) (Six of HER2 IHC score 2+ and 5 of 3+). The median progression free survival (PFS) was 4.04 months (95% CI, 2.96 - 4.40) for patients who treated with poziotinib in this study. PIK3CA activating mutations were associated with short PFS compared to wild type (WT) and other SNVs (Median PFS of activating mutations vs. WT and others: 2.66 vs. 4.40 (months), P=0.009). HER2 CN amplification was positively correlated to duration of PFS (Median PFS of no amplification vs. 4 ≤ CN < 16 vs. 16 ≤ CN: 2.56 vs. 3.02 vs. 4.86 (months), P=0.032). HER2 SNVs prolonged duration of PFS without statistical significance (Median PFS of HER2 SNVs vs. WT: 4.24 vs. 3.19 (months), P=0.114), but 10 of 13 BCs with HER2 SNV (76.9%) had clinical benefit from poziotinib and 5 BCs (38.5%) had durable response more than 6 months. Conclusion: In this biomarker analysis, SNV of HER2 was frequently observed in HER2 positive MBCs and HER2 CN amplification was detected not in all. High CN amplification of HER2 derived longer PFS than those with low CN. To contrary to this, activating PIK3CA mutations shorten PFS compared to those with WT. In addition, HER2 SNVs might be a potential biomarker of poziotinib in HER2-positive MBC. Further functional study would be warranted.

Abstract
We measured the g_{1} spin structure function of the deuteron at low Q^{2}, where QCD can be approximated with chiral perturbation theory (χPT). The data cover the resonance region, up to an invariant mass of W≈1.9 GeV. The generalized Gerasimov-Drell-Hearn sum, the moment Γ_{1}^{d} and the spin polarizability γ_{0}^{d} are precisely determined down to a minimum Q^{2} of 0.02 GeV^{2} for the first time, about 2.5 times lower than that of previous data. We compare them to several χPT calculations and models. These results are the first in a program of benchmark measurements of polarization observables in the χPT domain.

This study examined how patients with cancer estimate caregiver burden (CB) and the association between their underestimation of CB and their caregivers' self-ratings of their quality of life (CQOLC-K; Korean version of the Caregiver Quality of Life Index-Cancer), depression and anxiety (Korean version of the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale). Participants consisted of 990 patient-caregiver dyads recruited from a nationwide cross-sectional survey conducted in South Korea. Medical baseline data were retrieved from the hospital information systems of the participating centres. The patients with cancer who underestimated CB ranged from 18.62% (for physical CB) to 23.33% (for social CB). They had less advanced cancer, a lower income, were the caregiver's spouse, reported higher levels of family avoidance of communication about cancer, and had female caregivers. The patients' underestimation of CB was significantly related to lower CQoL and higher levels of caregiver depression and anxiety. The current study provides empirical evidence for the link between the underestimation of CB by patients with cancer and compromised caregiving experiences of cancer caregivers. Open family communication about cancer was discussed as one of several practical strategies for decreasing patients' underestimation of CB.

Abstract
Background In LUX-Lung 7, the irreversible ErbB family blocker, afatinib, significantly improved progression-free survival (PFS), time-to-treatment failure (TTF) and objective response rate (ORR) versus gefitinib in patients with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation-positive non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Here, we present primary analysis of mature overall survival (OS) data. Patients and methods LUX-Lung 7 assessed afatinib 40 mg/day versus gefitinib 250 mg/day in treatment-naïve patients with stage IIIb/IV NSCLC and a common EGFR mutation (exon 19 deletion/L858R). Primary OS analysis was planned after ∼213 OS events and ≥32-month follow-up. OS was analysed by a Cox proportional hazards model, stratified by EGFR mutation type and baseline brain metastases. Results Two-hundred and twenty-six OS events had occurred at the data cut-off (8 April 2016). After a median follow-up of 42.6 months, median OS (afatinib versus gefitinib) was 27.9 versus 24.5 months [hazard ratio (HR) = 0.86, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.66‒1.12, P = 0.2580]. Prespecified subgroup analyses showed similar OS trends (afatinib versus gefitinib) in patients with exon 19 deletion (30.7 versus 26.4 months; HR, 0.83, 95% CI 0.58‒1.17, P = 0.2841) and L858R (25.0 versus 21.2 months; HR 0.91, 95% CI 0.62‒1.36, P = 0.6585) mutations. Most patients (afatinib, 72.6%; gefitinib, 76.8%) had at least one subsequent systemic anti-cancer treatment following discontinuation of afatinib/gefitinib; 20 (13.7%) and 23 (15.2%) patients received a third-generation EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor. Updated PFS (independent review), TTF and ORR data were significantly improved with afatinib. Conclusion In LUX-Lung 7, there was no significant difference in OS with afatinib versus gefitinib. Updated PFS (independent review), TTF and ORR data were significantly improved with afatinib. Clinicaltrials.gov identifier NCT01466660.

Abstract
Background Chromosomal rearrangements involving RET, which are found in about 1% of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), define a unique molecular subset. We performed this study to examine the efficacy and safety of vandetanib 300 mg daily in this patient population. Patients and methods This study was a multi-center, open-label, phase II clinical trial. Patients were enrolled if they had metastatic or recurrent NSCLC with a RET rearrangement, which was confirmed by fluorescence in situ hybridization, had progressive disease against platinum-based doublet chemotherapy, and had a performance status of 0-2. The primary endpoint was the objective response rate. Results A total of 18 patients were enrolled in this study between July 2013 and October 2015. Patients were aged 35-71 years; three had a performance status of 2, and the majority were a heavily pretreated population (≥ two different previous chemotherapy regimens in 72% of the patients). Among the 17 evaluable patients, three had a partial response (objective response rate = 18%) and eight had a stable disease (disease control rate = 65%). Among these patients, the partial response or disease stabilization was durable for more than 6 months in eight patients. Vandetanib also showed a progression-free survival of 4.5 months, and an overall survival of 11.6 months during a median follow-up duration of 14 months. The safety profile was comparable with previous studies of vandetanib. Most vandetanib-related adverse events were mild with prevalent hypertension and rash (in >70% of patients). Grade 3 toxicity included hypertension (n = 3), QT prolongation (2), and elevation of aminotransferases (1), and as a consequence the dose was reduced in four patients. There were no adverse events associated with grade 4 or 5 toxicity. Conclusion Vandetanib is moderately active in pretreated patients with advanced NSCLC-harboring RET rearrangements.

Abstract
Background Targeting oncogenic genomic aberrations is an established therapeutic strategy in multiple tumor types. Molecular classification has uncovered a number of novel targets, and rapamycin-insensitive companion of mTOR (RICTOR) amplification has been identified in lung cancer. Further investigation assessing the therapeutic potential of RICTOR amplification as a novel target across advanced cancers is needed. Patients and methods Tumor samples from 640 patients with metastatic solid tumors, primarily gastrointestinal and lung cancers were prospectively subjected to a next-generation sequencing (NGS) assay to identify molecular targets. Samples with NGS-detected RICTOR amplification were confirmed with FISH. A RICTOR-amplified patient-derived cell (PDC) line was generated and used to investigate the effectiveness of selective AKT, mTORC1, and mTORC1/2 inhibition. Results NGS identified 13 (2%) of 640 patients with RICTOR-amplified tumors (6 gastric, 3 NSCLC, 1 SCLC, 1 CRC, 1 sarcoma, 1 MUO). Of the 13 patients, seven patients had RICTOR protein overexpression by IHC. The prevalence of RICTOR amplification in gastric cancer by NGS was 3.8% (6/160). FISH testing confirmed amplification (RICTOR/control >2) in 5/13 (38%) of samples, including four gastric cancers and one lung cancer. Treatment of a RICTOR amplified PDC with a selective AKT (AZD5363), selective mTORC1 (everolimus), dual mTORC1/2 (AZD2014), and the multi-target kinase inhibitor pazopanib demonstrated preferential sensitivity to the mTORC1/2 inhibitor (AZD2014). Knockdown of RICTOR reversed PDC sensitivity to AZD2014, validating the importance of RICTOR amplification to the PDC line. Conclusions RICTOR amplification is a rare but therapeutically relevant genomic alteration across solid tumors. Our results support further pre-clinical and clinical investigation with AZD2014 in RICTOR amplified gastric cancer and highlights the importance of genomic profiling.

Abstract
Introduction Intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) serves very important roles in lung injury, and increases in ICAM-1 are associated with severity of lung injury. We intended to examine whether ketamine could have favourable effects on ICAM-1 expression in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced acute lung injury in the rat. Methods The acute lung injury was induced by instilling LPS into the tracheas of 72 anaesthetised rats. The animals were divided into four groups including a sham group with intratracheal saline, an LPS group with intratracheal LPS and intraperitoneal saline, and two ketamine treatment groups with intratracheal LPS and treated with 1 mg/kg or 10 mg/kg doses of intraperitoneal ketamine hydrochloride. Half of the animals were sacrificed at three hours and the remaining animals were sacrificed at six hours. Real time PCR was performed on the lung tissues obtained. Concentration of the soluble ICAM-1 was measured in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid. Expression of ICAM-1 was measured. Results The transcriptional activity of ICAM-1 mRNA increased 9.92 fold in the LPS group compared to the sham group but decreased by 84.1% and 83.3%, respectively, in the 1 and 10 mg/kg ketamine treatment groups. The concentration of soluble ICAM-1 in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid increased 2.23 fold in the LPS group compared to the sham group while decreasing by 75.0% and 74.5% respectively in the 1 mg/kg and 10 mg/kg ketamine treatment groups. The intensity of immunohistochemical staining for ICAM-1 was also decreased in both ketamine treatment groups. Conclusion Ketamine attenuates ICAM-1 expression during acute lung injury in rats.

First Exclusive Measurement of Deeply Virtual Compton Scattering off ^{4}He: Toward the 3D Tomography of Nuclei. PHYSICAL REVIEW LETTERS 2017; 119:202004.

Abstract
We report on the first measurement of the beam-spin asymmetry in the exclusive process of coherent deeply virtual Compton scattering off a nucleus. The experiment uses the 6 GeV electron beam from the Continuous Electron Beam Accelerator Facility (CEBAF) accelerator at Jefferson Lab incident on a pressurized ^{4}He gaseous target placed in front of the CEBAF Large Acceptance Spectrometer (CLAS). The scattered electron is detected by CLAS and the photon by a dedicated electromagnetic calorimeter at forward angles. To ensure the exclusivity of the process, a specially designed radial time projection chamber is used to detect the recoiling ^{4}He nuclei. We measure beam-spin asymmetries larger than those observed on the free proton in the same kinematic domain. From these, we are able to extract, in a model-independent way, the real and imaginary parts of the only ^{4}He Compton form factor, H_{A}. This first measurement of coherent deeply virtual Compton scattering on the ^{4}He nucleus, with a fully exclusive final state via nuclear recoil tagging, leads the way toward 3D imaging of the partonic structure of nuclei.
