Abstract
On December 5, 2022, an indirect drive fusion implosion on the National Ignition Facility (NIF) achieved a target gain G_{target} of 1.5. This is the first laboratory demonstration of exceeding "scientific breakeven" (or G_{target}>1) where 2.05 MJ of 351 nm laser light produced 3.1 MJ of total fusion yield, a result which significantly exceeds the Lawson criterion for fusion ignition as reported in a previous NIF implosion [H. Abu-Shawareb et al. (Indirect Drive ICF Collaboration), Phys. Rev. Lett. 129, 075001 (2022)PRLTAO0031-900710.1103/PhysRevLett.129.075001]. This achievement is the culmination of more than five decades of research and gives proof that laboratory fusion, based on fundamental physics principles, is possible. This Letter reports on the target, laser, design, and experimental advancements that led to this result.

Abstract
(1) Vitamin D deficiency is associated with mortality in the general population and has been observed in one rheumatoid arthritis (RA) cohort. Here, we investigate the relationship between 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) levels before methotrexate (MTX) therapy initiation in patients with RA and the subsequent all-cause mortality in a national Veterans Affairs (VA) cohort. (2) This is a retrospective study on RA patients time-oriented around the initial MTX prescription and 25(OH)D levels before starting MTX. We examined survival in patients with 25(OH)D levels > 50 nmol/L and ≤50 nmol/L using the Cox Proportional Hazard Model and fully adjusted for risk factors. (3) In total, 15,109 RA patients were included in the nationwide cohort. RA patients with 25(OH)D levels > 50 nmol/L before starting MTX had a 28% reduced risk of mortality when compared to those with levels ≤ 50 nmol/L (HR: 0.72, CI: 0.64-0.80, p < 0.001) after adjusting for traditional risk factors. (4) In this national RA cohort receiving standard-of-care MTX, patients with 25(OH)D levels > 50 nmol/L have a lower subsequent mortality when compared to those with 25(OH)D levels ≤ 50 nmol/L. It remains to be determined whether increasing Vitamin D levels in RA patients initially found to be Vitamin D deficient impacts their all-cause mortality.

Abstract
Heat Related Illness (HRI) in dogs is expected to increase as heatwaves surge due to global warming. The most severe form of HRI, heat stroke, is potentially fatal in dogs. The current study investigated the incidence and risk factors for HRI in dogs in NSW, Australia, from 1997 to 2017. We identified 119 HRI cases during this period, with a fatality rate of 23%. Dog breeds at elevated risk of HRI were Australian Stumpy Tail Cattle Dog, British Bulldog, French Bulldog, Maremma Sheepdog, Italian Greyhound, Chow Chow, Airedale Terrier, Pug, Samoyed, English Springer Spaniel, Labrador Retriever, Golden Retriever, Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, Border Collie, Staffordshire Bull Terrier, and pooled non-Australian National Kennel Council breeds (which included the American and Australian Bulldog) when compared with cross breeds (i.e., the reference variable). As expected, HRI cases were more likely in December and January, during the Australian summer and during hotter years (e.g., 2016). There were no differences in the risk of HRI between males and females nor between desexed or un-desexed dogs; but older dogs were at increased risk of HRI. These findings underscore the need for data collection that will enable the incidence of HRI in dogs to be monitored and to better understand canine risk factors particularly as temperatures will continue to rise due to global warming. The risk of mortality from HRI underpins the need for education programs focussed on prevention and early identification of HRI so that owners present affected dogs to their veterinarian as promptly as possible.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE People with autoimmune disease have worse COVID-19 infection-related outcomes, lower antibody responses to COVID-19 vaccine, and higher rates of breakthrough infection. Immunosuppressive medications used to treat rheumatoid arthritis (RA) are associated with lower COVID-19 vaccine responses, though independent contributions of comorbidities, T-cell immunity, and age are less clear. We sought to test the hypothesis that RA, immunosuppressive medications used to treat RA, and older age, contribute to reduced B and T cell response to COVID-19 vaccine. METHODS We evaluated serum samples, taken the day of 1st vaccine dose, the day of 2nd dose, 2-6 weeks after 2nd dose, 7-12 weeks after 2nd dose, 13-24 weeks after 2nd dose, and 2-6 weeks after the 3rd dose, for anti-spike IgG and neutralizing antibody levels to Wuhan and Omicron BA.1 and peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) for spike-specific IFN-γ and IL-2 production by ELISPOT assay in 46 RA and 101 non-autoimmune control participants before and after the primary series COVID-19 mRNA vaccination. RESULTS RA participants had lower spike-specific IgG and Wuhan-strain neutralizing antibody levels 2-6 weeks compared to controls after the second dose of primary vaccine series. Neutralizing antibody levels against Omicron BA.1 were low in both groups. IFN-γ production correlated with Wuhan neutralizing antibody levels, while older age negatively correlated with spike-specific IL-2, IFN-γ and IgG. Lower antibody levels were associated with older age, RA status, and medication usage, while lower T cell responses were associated primarily with older age. CONCLUSIONS These data indicate lower COVID-19 mRNA vaccine-induced antibody levels in persons with RA compared to individuals without RA, likely partially attributable to immune suppressive medications. At the same time, older age is associated with lower antibody and cellular immune response to COVID-19 vaccines.

Circulating urea nitrogen increases in multiple species during HS and it has been traditionally presumed to stem from increased skeletal muscle proteolysis; however, this has not been empirically established. We hypothesized HS would increase activation of the calpain and proteasome systems as well as increase degradation of autophagosomes in skeletal muscle. To test this hypothesis, lactating dairy cows (∼139 d in milk; parity ∼2.4) were exposed to thermal neutral (TN) or HS conditions for 7 d (8 cows/environment). To induce HS, cattle were fitted with electric blankets for the duration of the heating period and the semitendinosus was biopsied on d 7. Heat stress increased rectal temperature (1.3°C) and respiratory rate (38 breaths per minute) while it decreased dry matter intake (34%) and milk yield (32%). Plasma urea nitrogen (PUN) peaked following 3 d (46%) and milk urea nitrogen (MUN) peaked following 4 d of environmental treatment and while both decreased thereafter, PUN and MUN remained elevated compared with TN (PUN: 20%; MUN: 27%) on d 7 of HS. Contrary to expectations, calpain I and II abundance and activation and calpain activity were similar between groups. Likewise, relative protein abundance of E3 ligases, muscle atrophy F-box protein/atrogin-1 and muscle ring-finger protein-1, total ubiquitinated proteins, and proteasome activity were similar between environmental treatments. Finally, autophagosome degradation was also unaltered by HS. Counter to our hypothesis, these results suggest skeletal muscle proteolysis is not increased following 7 d of HS and call into question the presumed dogma that elevated skeletal muscle proteolysis, per se, drives increased AA mobilization.

Abstract
Traumatic brain injury (TBI)-induced axonal degeneration leads to acute and chronic neuropsychiatric impairment, neuronal death, and accelerated neurodegenerative diseases of aging, including Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases. In laboratory models, axonal degeneration is traditionally studied through comprehensive postmortem histological evaluation of axonal integrity at multiple time points. This requires large numbers of animals to power for statistical significance. Here, we developed a method to longitudinally monitor axonal functional activity before and after injury in vivo in the same animal over an extended period. Specifically, after expressing an axonal-targeting genetically encoded calcium indicator in the mouse dorsolateral geniculate nucleus, we recorded axonal activity patterns in the visual cortex in response to visual stimulation. In vivo aberrant axonal activity patterns after TBI were detectable from 3 days after injury and persisted chronically. This method generates longitudinal same-animal data that substantially reduces the number of required animals for preclinical studies of axonal degeneration.

Abstract
PURPOSE To determine whether variance in kidney cancer surgery quality indicators (QIs) is most impacted by surgeon-level or hospital-level factors in order to inform quality improvement initiatives. MATERIALS AND METHODS The ICES and Veterans Affairs (VA) databases were queried for patients undergoing surgery for localized kidney cancer. Kidney cancer surgery QIs were defined within each cohort. Quality of care was benchmarked at a surgeon- vs. hospital-level to identify statistical outliers, using available clinicopathological data to adjust for differences in case-mix. Variance between surgeons and hospitals was calculated for each QI using a random-effects model. RESULTS The QI with the greatest amount of variance explained by hospital and surgeon-level factors was proportion of cases performed with minimally invasive surgery (MIS). The majority of this variance was due to surgeon-level factors for both the VA and ICES cohorts. The proportion of cases performed using an MIS approach was also the QI with the greatest number of outlier hospitals and surgeons compared to the average performance. The proportion of partial nephrectomies performed for patients at risk of chronic kidney disease was the QI with the greatest amount of variance due to hospital-level factors for the ICES cohort. CONCLUSIONS The proportion of localized kidney cancer cases performed using an MIS approach is the QI requiring the greatest attention. Quality improvement initiatives should focus on surgeon-level factors to increase the number of MIS cases being performed for patients with localized renal masses.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Morbidity and mortality in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is partly mitigated by maintaining immune and hematologic homeostasis. Identification of those at risk is challenging. Red cell distribution width (RDW) and absolute lymphocyte count (ALC) associate with cardiovascular disease (CVD) and mortality in the general population, and with disease activity in RA. How these variables relate to inflammation and mortality in RA was investigated. METHODS In a retrospective single Veterans Affairs (VA) Rheumatology Clinic cohort of 327 patients with RA treated with methotrexate (MTX)+/- a tumor necrosis factor (TNF) inhibitor (TNFi), we evaluated RDW and ALC before and during therapy and in relation to subsequent mortality. Findings were validated in a national VA cohort (n = 13,914). In a subset of patients and controls, we evaluated inflammatory markers. RESULTS In the local cohort, high RDW and low ALC prior to MTX treatment was associated with subsequent mortality over 10 years (both P < 0.001). The highest mortality was observed in those with both high RDW and low ALC. This remained after adjusting for age and comorbidities and was validated in the national RA cohort. In the immunology cohort, soluble and cellular inflammatory markers were higher in patients with RA than in controls. ALC correlated with age, plasma TNF receptor II, natural killer HLA-DR mean fluorescence intensity, and CD4CM/CD8CM HLA-DR/CD38%, whereas RDW associated with age and ALC. MTX initiation was followed by an increase in RDW and a decrease in ALC. TNFi therapy added to MTX resulted in an increase in ALC. CONCLUSION RDW and ALC before disease-modifying antirheumatic drug therapy are associated with biomarkers of monocyte/macrophage inflammation and subsequent mortality. The mechanistic linkage between TNF signaling and lymphopenia found here warrants further investigation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS Both non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection commonly result in hepatic fibrosis and may lead to cirrhosis. This study aims to determine the incidence of HCC in patients with HCV or NAFLD complicated by advanced fibrosis, inferred from measurements of liver stiffness. METHODS Using Veterans Affairs (VA) Informatics and Computing Infrastructure (VINCI), we identified a nationwide cohort of patients with an existing diagnosis of HCV or NAFLD with liver transient elastography (TE) testing from 2015 to 2019. HCC cases, along with a random sample of non-HCC patients, were identified and validated, leading to calculation of incidence rates for HCC after adjustment for confounders. RESULTS 26,161 patients carried a diagnosis of HCV and 13,629 were diagnosed with NAFLD at the time of testing. In those with HCV, rates of HCC increased with liver stiffness with incidences of 0.28 (95% CI 0.24, 0.34), 0.93 (95% CI 0.72, 1.17), 1.28 (95% CI 0.89, 1.79), and 2.79 (95% CI 2.47, 3.14)/100,000 person years for TE score ranges <9.5 kPa, 9.5-12.5 kPa, 12.5-14.5 kPa and >14.5 kPa, respectively, after a median follow-up of 2.3 years. HCC incidence also increased with higher TE liver stiffness measures in NAFLD after a median follow-up of 1.1 years. CONCLUSION In this retrospective cohort, the incidence of HCC in HCV and NAFLD increases with higher TE liver stiffness measures, confirming that advanced fibrosis portends risk in viral and non-viral fibrotic liver diseases. Additional comparative studies are needed to determine the optimal cut point of TE liver stiffness to inform HCC screening guidelines and approaches.

Abstract
Background and Aim Donepezil is a front-line treatment for Alzheimer's disease. Donepezil treatment is associated with decreased risk of all-cause mortality. Specific protection is observed in pneumonia and cardiovascular disease. We hypothesized that donepezil treatment would improve mortality among Alzheimer's patients following infection with COVID-19. The objective of this study is to assess the influence of ongoing donepezil treatment on survival in Alzheimer's disease patients after polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-confirmed COVID-19 infection. Methods This is a retrospective cohort study. We conducted a national survey of Veterans with Alzheimer's disease to assess the influence of ongoing donepezil treatment on survival in Alzheimer's disease patients after PCR-confirmed COVID-19 infection. We assessed all-cause 30-day mortality stratified by COVID-19 infection and donepezil use, estimating odds ratios using multivariate logistic regression. Results Among people with Alzheimer's disease and COVID-19, all-cause 30-day mortality was 29% (47/163) for people taking donepezil compared with 38% (159/419) for those who were not. Among people with Alzheimer's disease without COVID-19, all-cause 30-day mortality was 5% (189/4189) for people taking donepezil compared with 7% (712/10,241) for those who were not. Adjusting for covariates, the decrease in mortality associated with donepezil did not differ between people with and without COVID-19 (interaction p = 0.710). Conclusion The known survival benefits of donepezil were retained but not found to be specific to COVID-19 among people with Alzheimer's disease.

Abstract
Background Pseudomonas aeruginosa bloodstream infection (PA-BSI) is associated with high mortality. The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic has introduced challenges to diagnosis and treatment of this infection is unknown. In this study, we examined the direct and indirect effects of COVID-19 on PA-BSI associated mortality in the Veterans Health Administration (VHA) population. Methods We identified patients within the VHA database with PA-BSI identified between January 1, 2009 and December 31, 2019 (pre-COVID) and January 1, 2020 to December 31, 2021 (COVID). Extracted data included age, race, ethnicity, Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI), susceptibility testing, treatment, and COVID-19 infection. Antimicrobial resistance was characterized as pan-susceptible, any unclassified resistance, multi-drug resistant (MDR), difficult to treat resistant (DTR), and extremely or pan-drug resistant (XDR/PDR). Active therapy was defined as an effective antibiotic initiated within 48 hours of blood culture collection. We used logistic regression to assess the impact of each factor on 30-day mortality. Results We identified 7,578 patients with PA-BSI and known 30-day mortality status, which was 24% overall (Table 1). Age and CCI were higher during COVID, while effective treatment and resistance improved (Table 2). In the multivariate analysis, concomitant COVID infection tripled the odds of mortality (odds ratio [OR] 3.00, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.40–6.37) (Figure 1). However, the COVID period itself was not associated with higher mortality. Effective treatment was associated with 19% lower odds of mortality (OR 0.81, 95% CI 0.66–1.01), while DTR and XDR/PDR nearly doubled mortality (OR 1.75, 95% CI 1.23–2.47 and OR 2.06, 95% CI 1.25–3.34, respectively). Conclusion We observed higher odds of mortality in patients with PA-BSI and COVID-19 coinfection, supporting the hypothesis that COVID-19 directly impacts PA-BSI outcomes. Annual PA-BSI incidence and associated 30-day mortality, however, were similar during the COVID period. Favorable resistance trends, effective treatment, and a low rate of PA-BSI and COVID-19 coinfection may explain these findings, despite increased age and comorbidities in this vulnerable population.

Abstract
Background Dementia has been identified as an independent risk factor for increased severity of COVID-19 infection. Donepezil, a cholinesterase inhibitor approved for Alzheimer’s disease (AD), has anti-inflammatory properties. Previous studies have found that donepezil reduced all-cause mortality for people living with AD. The anti-inflammatory effects of donepezil have not been studied in patients with COVID-19 and AD. Here, we compare mortality rates of patients with AD to assess the impact of donepezil on the severity of COVID-19 infections. Survival following SARS-CoV2-2 test, stratified by result and Donepezil
![]() Kaplan-Meier curves of all-cause mortality for Veterans with Alzheimer’s Disease taking donepezil (black) compared to those who were not taking donepezil (grey), further stratified by those with a positive SARS-CoV-2 PCR test (solid lines) or no evidence of a COVID-19 infection during the study period (dashed lines). While donepezil has a positive effect on survival, the adjusted survival odds ratio is not greater among those with vs. without a COVID-19 infection. Methods Using administrative data from the Veterans Healthcare Administration (VHA), we conducted a national retrospective cohort study of Veterans with AD who were tested for SARS-CoV-2 between March 1, 2020 and December 31, 2021 in the VHA. Among these patients, we assessed all-cause 30-day mortality stratified by COVID-19 infection and donepezil use and considered the interaction of these two factors. For Veterans with a positive test, the date of first positive test was used to assess mortality; for Veterans without a COVID-19 diagnosis or positive test, date of first negative test was used. Results During the study period, 582 Veterans with Alzheimer’s disease were positive for COVID-19 and 14430 had no test or diagnosis indicating COVID-19 infection. Among people with AD and COVID-19, all-cause 30-day mortality was 29% (47/163) for people taking donepezil compared to 38% (159/419) for those who were not. Among people with AD without COVID-19, all-cause 30-day mortality was 5% (189/4189) for people taking donepezil compared to 7% (712/10241) for those who were not. In a multivariable logistic regression, the decrease in mortality associated with donepezil did not differ between people with and without COVID-19 (OR (95% CI) = 0.71 (0.47, 1.07) vs. OR (95% CI) = 0.68 (0.57, 0.80), interaction P = 0.818). Conclusion While all-cause mortality was lower for patients taking donepezil compared to those not taking donepezil, the protective effect of donepezil was not increased in AD patients with COVID-19 over those without COVID-19. The population differences and inflammatory biomarkers of AD patients treated with and without donepezil merit further study. Disclosures Robin L.

Abstract
Background Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are the most common indication for antibiotic prescriptions in nursing homes (NHs) and frequently result in fluoroquinolone (FQ) prescriptions. We performed a vignette-based survey of NH providers to better understand empiric UTI treatment decision-making. Methods Study participants were recruited nationally through professional organizations and snowball sampling from December 2021 to February 2022. Clinical vignettes depicting four UTI presentations in NH residents (1. simple cystitis, 2. pyelonephritis with cephalosporin allergy, 3. catheter-associated UTI and 4. cystitis with history of resistant organism) were developed and distributed via electronic survey. Respondents provided free-text antibiotic choice, which two physicians independently reviewed and implicitly determined if a preferred or not-preferred antibiotic was selected. A panel of three physicians adjudicated discrepancies between the primary reviewers. Analysis was performed in R. Results Of 86 respondents, 74% were physicians and 26% were advanced practitioners. Half of respondents (50%) had >10 years NH experience, 41% were geriatrics trained, and none were infectious disease trained. Figure 1 details antibiotic choices and preferred agents for each case. Overall, 70% of antibiotic choices were deemed preferred antibiotics, with the least number of preferred choices observed for case 3 depicting catheter-associated UTI (53%). FQs (43%) and nitrofurantoin (14%) were the most frequent non-preferred choices. Case 2 received the greatest proportion of FQ prescriptions (38%), but this was a preferred agent. In cases where FQs were not a preferred choice, they comprised 17% of antibiotic choices. There was no difference in FQ or preferred prescribing choices by role. Providers with >10 years NH experience, however, prescribed fewer FQs over the four cases than those with less NH experience (0.7 vs. 1.1, p=0.04). Antibiotic Choice and Preferred Agents per Case
![]() Antibiotic choices are ordered from highest to lowest cumulative frequency. Conclusion This sample of NH providers made mostly preferred empiric antibiotic choices, however, FQ use remained high, particularly in providers with less NH practice experience. Further exploration of decision-support tools for empiric antibiotic prescribing in this setting may improve antibiotic stewardship. Disclosures Robin L.

Abstract
For more than half a century, researchers around the world have been engaged in attempts to achieve fusion ignition as a proof of principle of various fusion concepts. Following the Lawson criterion, an ignited plasma is one where the fusion heating power is high enough to overcome all the physical processes that cool the fusion plasma, creating a positive thermodynamic feedback loop with rapidly increasing temperature. In inertially confined fusion, ignition is a state where the fusion plasma can begin "burn propagation" into surrounding cold fuel, enabling the possibility of high energy gain. While "scientific breakeven" (i.e., unity target gain) has not yet been achieved (here target gain is 0.72, 1.37 MJ of fusion for 1.92 MJ of laser energy), this Letter reports the first controlled fusion experiment, using laser indirect drive, on the National Ignition Facility to produce capsule gain (here 5.8) and reach ignition by nine different formulations of the Lawson criterion.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION We aimed to develop and validate a Compound Quality Score (CQS) as a metric for hospital-level quality of surgical care in kidney cancer at the Veterans Affairs National Health System. METHODS A retrospective review of 8,965 patients with kidney cancer treated at Veterans Affairs (2005-2015) was performed. Two previously validated process quality indicators (QIs) were explored: the proportion of patients with 1) T1a tumors undergoing partial nephrectomy and 2) T1-T2 tumors undergoing minimally invasive radical nephrectomy. Demographics/comorbidity/tumor characteristics/treatment year were used for case mix adjustments at hospital level. The predicted versus observed ratio of cases was calculated per hospital to generate QI scores using indirect standardization and multivariable regression models. CQS represents the sum of both scores. A total of 96 hospitals were grouped by CQS, and short-term patient-level outcomes were regressed on CQS levels to assess for length of stay (LOS), 30-day complications/readmission, 90-day mortality and total cost of surgical admission. RESULTS CQS identified 25/33/38 hospitals with higher/lower/average performance, respectively. High performance hospitals had higher nephrectomy volumes (p <0.01). Total CQS independently associated with LOS (β=-0.04, p <0.01, predicted LOS 0.84 days shorter for CQS=2 versus CQS=-2), 30-day surgical complications (OR=0.88, p <0.01) or 30-day medical complications (OR=0.93, p <0.01) and total cost of surgical admission (β =-0.014, p <0.01, predicted 12% lower cost for CQS=2 versus CQS=-2). No association was found between CQS and 30-day readmissions or 90-day mortality (all p >0.05), although low event rates were observed (8.9% and 1.7%, respectively). CONCLUSIONS Variability in quality of surgical care at hospital level can be captured with the CQS among patients with kidney cancer. CQS is associated with relevant short-term perioperative outcomes and surgical cost. QIs should be used to identify, audit and implement quality improvement strategies across health systems.

Abstract
The infant gut microbiome contains a portion of bacteria that originate from the maternal gut. In the infant gut these bacteria encounter a new metabolic environment that differs from the adult gut, consequently requiring adjustments in their activities. We used pilot community RNA sequencing data (metatranscriptomes) from ten mother-infant dyads participating in the NiPPeR Study to characterize bacterial gene expression shifts following mother-to-infant transmission. Maternally-derived bacterial strains exhibited large scale gene expression shifts following the transmission to the infant gut, with 12,564 activated and 14,844 deactivated gene families. The implicated genes were most numerous and the magnitude shifts greatest in Bacteroides spp. This pilot study demonstrates environment-dependent, strain-specific shifts in gut bacteria function and underscores the importance of metatranscriptomic analysis in microbiome studies.

Abstract
Background: Hepatitis-C virus (HCV) chronic infection can lead to cirrhosis, hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), end-stage liver disease, cardiovascular disease (CVD), and mortality. Transient Elastography (TE) is used to non-invasively assess fibrosis. Whether immune monitoring provides additive prognostic value is not established. Increased red-cell distribution width (RDW) and decreased absolute lymphocyte count (ALC) predict mortality in those without liver disease. Whether these relationships remain during HCV infection is unknown. Materials and Methods: A retrospective cohort of 1,715 single-site VA Liver Clinic patients receiving Transient Elastography (TE) 2014-2019 to evaluate HCV-associated liver damage were evaluated for RDW and ALC in relation to traditional parameters of cardiovascular risk, liver health, development of HCC, and mortality. Results: The cohort was 97% male, 55% African American, 26% with diabetes mellitus, 67% with hypertension, and 66% with tobacco use. After TE, 3% were subsequently diagnosed with HCC, and 12% (n=208) died. Most deaths (n=189) were due to non-liver causes. The TE score associated with prevalent CVD, positively correlated with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) 10-Year Risk Score, age, RDW, and negatively correlated with ALC. Patients with anisocytosis (RDW above 14%) or lymphopenia (ALC level under 1.2×109/L) had greater subsequent all-cause mortality, even after adjusting for age, TE score, and comorbidities. TE score, and to a modest degree RDW, were associated with subsequent liver-associated mortality, while TE score, RDW, and ALC were each independently associated with non-liver cause of death. Conclusion: Widely available mortality calculators generally require multiple pieces of clinical information. RDW and ALC, parameters collected on a single laboratory test that is commonly performed, prior to HCV therapy may be pragmatic markers of long-term risk of mortality.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Despite proven efficacy, uptake of pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) for HIV prevention in the US remains suboptimal. Whether electronic medical record (EMR) driven data tools increase PrEP uptake is unknown. Our study sought to understand the impact of education and an EMR data tool to increase PrEP uptake at the Veterans Northeast Ohio Healthcare System (VANEOHS).
Methods
Using EMR data we identified persons at the VANEOHS with a diagnosis of bacterial Sexually Transmitted Illness (STI) as defined by a positive syphilis, gonorrhea or chlamydia test in the past 6 months. Beginning October 2020 Infectious Diseases (ID) staff launched an intensive PrEP education campaign for Primary care providers (PCP) and the emergency room (ER). During a 6-week intervention period, a ‘PrEP candidacy’ note was placed for the PCP in selected patients’ charts with recommendations for PrEP initiation and STI co-testing if appropriate. We measured the impact of the intervention on PrEP initiations from 3/1/21-5/31/21 and compared it to a pre-intervention period of 7/1/20-9/30/20 when candidates were identified in primary care only. We extracted pertinent data through the EMR and presented descriptive statistics as means and percentages. We compared outcomes using Chi-square test with simulated p-values due to small expected values.
Results
Forty-two potential PrEP candidates were identified during post-intervention period compared to 6 in the pre-intervention period. The post-intervention candidates included cis-gender women (5/42, 12%) and ER referrals (6/42, 14%), both absent from the pre-intervention cohort. Compared to the pre-intervention period there was an increase in PrEP consults to ID (6 vs. 16; p=0.003) and PrEP starts (4 vs. 9; p=0.04). We observed increased rates of STI (69% vs. 50%) and HIV co-testing (79% vs. 67%) from pre to post intervention but these were not statistically different. Of the 42 candidates, 24 had been identified using the STI data tool. Of these, only 4 were referred for PrEP and none were initiated on PrEP by the end of our observation period.
Conclusion
The use of the data tool had no direct impact on PrEP uptake. Instead, the doubling of PrEP starts was attributable to education. Further studies are needed to maximize the utility of data tools to increase PrEP uptake.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
In nursing homes, federal mandates call for more judicious use of antibiotics and antipsychotics. Previous research indicates that practice patterns of nursing home practitioners, rather than resident’s signs and symptoms or overall medical conditions, drive antibiotic use. We hypothesized that nursing home practitioners who prescribe antibiotics more frequently than their peers may display a similar practice pattern for antipsychotics. Here, we examine similarities in prescribing patterns for antibiotics and antipsychotics among practitioners at 29 U.S. nursing homes.
Methods
Prescription data came from 2016 invoices from a pharmacy common to all 29 nursing homes. We defined practitioners as individuals who prescribed ≥1% of systemic medications at a nursing home and excluded practitioners without no prescriptions for anti-hypertensive drugs assuming they were not treating a general nursing home population (i.e. treating hospice or dementia patients). Using anti-hypertensive starts for standardization, we calculated the expected number of starts for both antibiotics and antipsychotics. Using funnel plots with Poisson 99% control limits for the observed-to-expected ratio, we identified practitioners whose use of either class of drugs exceeded these control limits. Practitioners were classified as high, average, or low prescribers for each class of drugs.
Results
We analyzed 129 practitioners who wrote for 113669 systemic medications. For antibiotics, 27 (20%) and 19 (15%) of practitioners were low and high prescribers, respectively. For antipsychotics, 53 (41%) and 14 (11%) were low and high prescribers, respectively (Figure 1). Among the low antibiotic prescribers, 59% (16/27) were also low antipsychotic prescribers. Among the high antibiotic prescribers, 21% (4/19) were also high antipsychotic prescribers (Figure 2).

(b) Funnel plot for antipsychotics
Figure 2. Type of prescriber
Conclusion
Practitioners who were low prescribers for antibiotics were also likely to be low prescribers for antipsychotics, suggesting judicious use for both classes of medications. Further understanding of the behaviors of these individuals, as well as those who are high prescribers for both classes, has implications for improving antibiotic stewardship practices in nursing homes.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction/Objective
Determination of glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is essential in assessment of kidney function, particularly in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Formulas were developed to calculate estimated GFR (eGFR), as direct measurement is cumbersome and not amenable to routine monitoring. CKD-EPI is the most widely used formula for eGFR, using parameters of serum creatinine, gender, race, and age. A race adjustment was added from an unfounded assumption that Black patients have more muscle mass, increasing their eGFR by about 16%. There is concern on the impact of “correcting” for Black race on patient management, utility of eGFR, and its possible contribution to healthcare disparities. This study examined the impact of eliminating race adjustment from the CKD- EPI formula on CKD staging in patients at a large safety-net hospital in an academic medical center.
Methods/Case Report
80090 serum creatinine values from 56676 adult patients (31.4% Black, 67.5% female, median age 51 yrs) were collected from the electronic medical record (Epic, Verona, WI) over a 16-month timeframe. Values were excluded if they lacked age, gender, self-identified race, or serum creatinine. eGFR was calculated using the CKD-EPI equation with and without race modifier, and CKD staging was performed using 2012 Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes guidelines.
Results (if a Case Study enter NA)
In our cohort, only 50.8% of Black patients are in CKD1, indicative of no CKD, compared to 67.9% of non-Black patients. Given that these two cohorts are demographically similar, this shows a discrepancy in kidney function even before removing the race adjustment. After removal of the race modifier, 28.1% of Black patients were reclassified into a more severe CKD stage. The most restaging occurred from CKD3A to 3B (39%).
Conclusion
Many Black patients in our study were reclassified to a more severe CKD stage, with the highest percentage of patients restaged to CKD3B, which would have attracted clinical attention for nephrology referral. We recommend removal of the race adjustment in eGFR, given its basis in the incorrect belief in biological differences between races. It perpetuates systemic racism and discrimination in healthcare, and its removal will provide more equitable care and reduce healthcare disparities. Future studies should examine the increase in resources required to provide adequate medical care to patients who will be placed into a more severe CKD stage.

Abstract
Abstract
Aim
1/3 of idiopathic cryptoglandular abscesses can result in fistula-in-ano. Current practice is to incise and drain primary abscesses and safety net for patients to return as necessary. Known fistula patients will be appointed for Examination Under Anaesthetic at 6-12 weeks.Is this best management or do they become “elective emergencies”?
Method
We performed a retrospective audit of management of fistula-in-ano over 4 years. We used a precollected data set of Cryptoglandular abscesses, excluding inflammatory, radiation or malignant causes and collected data for patients lost to follow up, including presentation, fistula diagnosed at first or subsequent attendance, number of operations, number of attendances and seton placement.
Results
512 patients were operated on for cryptoglandular abscess causing fistula-in-ano between 2013 and 2017. 10% (N = 50) were lost to follow up. 32 had documented follow up plans, that were not fulfilled (eg elective theatre not booked). Of these, 18 were elective attendances, 14 emergency. 24 of the 32 had a Seton sited prior to being lost to follow up
Conclusions
The various presentations (emergency, elective, clinic or day surgery) and long waiting lists mean many of these patients are presenting as emergencies still awaiting follow up. Many are lost to follow-up, with Setons in situ. We propose a fortnightly hot-clinic system, registrar led to assess and manage these patients. This would provide an elective clinic to allow single point of access to fistula-in-ano patients ensuring prompt follow up and reduction in unnecessary EUA, as well as improving senior colorectal trainees exposure to perianal disease and its management.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Intracapsular tonsillectomy has emerged as a novel alternative to traditional tonsillectomy where the tonsillar capsule is left intact with a small amount of overlying tonsillar tissue. There is growing evidence to suggest that intracapsular tonsillectomy is associated with reduced post-operative pain, haemorrhage and readmission rates. The aim of this study was to assess the reported benefits of intracapsular tonsillectomy within the ENT department at a tertiary paediatric hospital.
Method
Retrospective analysis comparing two cohorts of 72 consecutive paediatric patients undergoing coblation intracapsular and extracapsular tonsillectomy between March-2019 and November-2020. Patient age at procedure, removal of adenoids, indication, surgeon grade, and discharge time were recorded. Post-tonsillectomy bleeding and 30-day readmission rates were used as the main outcome measures.
Results
The median age in both groups was 5 years. The intracapsular cohort demonstrated a lower 30-day readmission rate (8.3% vs. 15.3%), lower primary (<24 hours) post-op bleed rate (0% vs. 2.78%) and lower secondary (>24hours) post-op bleed rate (4.2% vs. 12.5%) when compared to the extracapsular cohort. Eight cases were conducted as day cases in total, all Intracapsular, with none of these patients requiring readmission within 30 days.
Discussion
Coblation Intracapsular tonsillectomy is an effective and low-risk alternative to extracapsular techniques. It is hoped with the reduced associated risks and morbidity associated with the procedure, the department can move towards day case tonsillectomy procedures resulting in a reduction in overall healthcare costs and improved patient experience.

Abstract
PURPOSE State and national cancer registries do not systematically include Veteran data, which hinders analysis of the diagnosis patterns, treatment trajectories, and clinical outcomes of Veterans compared with non-Veteran populations. This study used data matching approaches to compare cases included in the Oncology Domain of the Veterans Affairs (VA) Corporate Data Warehouse and the Ohio Cancer Incidence Surveillance System, using brain tumors as an exemplar. METHODS We used direct data matching, on the basis of protected health information (PHI) common to both databases, to compare primary brain tumors from Veterans and non-Veterans diagnosed from 2000 to 2016. Working with this matched data set, we used six data elements that did not contain PHI, to assess the feasibility of using deterministic data matching to compare Veterans and non-Veterans. RESULTS Between 2000 and 2016, 223 Veterans from Ohio had a primary brain tumor; of those, 55 (25%) were not included in Ohio Cancer Incidence Surveillance System. Direct data matching showed that Veterans experienced a greater proportion of glioblastomas (41%) compared with non-Veterans (21%). Sex did not account for this difference. Deterministic data matching within the matched data set found that 75% (126 of 168) of Veterans had exact matches for at least five of six non-PHI variables common to both databases. CONCLUSION This study indicated that direct and deterministic data matching approaches to compare brain tumors in Veterans and in non-Veterans is feasible. This approach has the potential to promote comparisons of the distribution of tumors, the impact of chemical and environmental exposures, treatment trajectories, and clinical outcomes among Veteran and non-Veteran populations with brain tumors as well as other cancers and rare diseases.

Abstract
Abstract
Study question
What are the characteristics of a large online community of women trying to conceive and what are the factors that predict infertility in this group?
Summary answer
The cohort was not characterized by increased age, though age, obesity and PCOS strongly correlated with fertility. PCOS may be under-recognized within some ethnic groups.
What is known already
Obesity, polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), and age are among the primary predictors of infertility in women. However, most studies assessing reproductive health employ populations who have sought medical assistance for infertility or associated disorders, potentially leading to populations more likely to exhibit disorders such as PCOS or to be of increased age. Characterization of factors affecting fertility in a general population may highlight epidemiological influences that should be better addressed to aid women trying to conceive.
Study design, size, duration
This study employed users of the mobile application, FertilityAnswers, for people searching for answers to fertility problems. Users answered a short survey describing themselves, their fertility history and goals. Recruitment for this study began in March 2017 and ended in January 2021. 61814 participants downloaded the application during this period, and 56878 at least provided their age. The primary inclusion criteria were that study participants be US females over eighteen years of age.
Participants/materials, setting, methods
Regression models estimated beta coefficients and corresponding confidence intervals. Multivariable models determined independence of variables. To model PCOS, the available data in January 2020 was split randomly into discovery and validation subsets. Missing value imputation using random forests was performed in the discovery dataset. Minimal feature selection used a linear regression model penalized with a lasso and elastic net. The model was then validated on samples collected after the model was trained and tested.
Main results and the role of chance
Age was a significant predictor of fertility in this study (p < 1x10-10). However, the distribution of age in the cohort was very similar to that of women at first birth in the United States, therefore we did not observe the majority of study participants to be of an age where in a typical clinical setting age-related concerns would be addressed (i.e., approaching 35 years). Using National Center for Health Statistics data, the mean age of 1,433,604 women at first birth in 2018 in the US was younger than the study population (restricted to those without children) by only one month. Obesity was of increased prevalence in this cohort, with 55% being obese, compared to 37% in an age-matched US population. Participants reported a variety of fertility-related disorders, with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) being most prevalent (19.0%), followed by endometriosis (6.0%). Prediction of PCOS, performed by modeling on training and test sets (10476 and 5312 participants) and then validating with an additional 21097 participants collected after the model creation, found that African-Americans and Latino members of this cohort had a lower self-reported rate of the disorder than was anticipated by the model, in contrast to those of Asian or European descent.
Limitations, reasons for caution
All health data was self-reported. Additionally, as this is the initial survey of this population, no a priori hypotheses were made as to the expected relationships to be observed. Instead, all associations were examined, and measurements of false discovery rate were estimated.
Wider implications of the findings
We found that women were seeking answers about infertility at ages coincident with that of their peers achieving first pregnancies. ART is often not a first-line treatment for women of this age, but there may be a disconnect between traditional clinical response to this group and their desire for assistance.

Abstract
Background The mechanisms underlying naïve CD4+ lymphopenia during chronic Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) infection are unclear. Whether direct-acting antiviral (DAA) therapy restores peripheral naïve CD4+ T cell numbers and function is unknown. Methods We enumerated frequencies and counts of peripheral naïve CD4+, CD4+CD31+ and CD4+CD31- T cells by flow cytometry in a cross sectional analysis comparing chronic HCV infected (n=34), DAA-treated(n=29), and age-range matched controls (n=25), as well as in a longitudinal cohort of HCV DAA treated persons (n=16). The cross-sectional cohort was stratified by cirrhosis state. Cell apoptosis/survival (AnnexinV+7AAD+/BCL-2 labeling) and cell cycle entry (Ki67 expression) of CD31+ and CD31- naïve CD4+ T cells was analyzed directly ex vivo and following 3 and 5 days of in vitro culture with media, interleukin (IL) -7 or CD3/CD28 activator. Results In the cross-sectional cohort, naïve CD4+ proportions were lower in chronic HCV infected persons compared to controls and DAA-treated persons, an effect in part attributed to cirrhosis. Age was associated with naïve cell counts and proportions in HCV infected and treated persons as well. Naïve CD4+ cell proportions negatively correlated with plasma levels of soluble CD14 following therapy in DAA-treated persons. Naïve CD4+ cells from HCV infected persons exhibited greater direct ex vivo apoptosis and cell-cycling compared to cells from DAA-treated persons and controls, and this was localized to the CD4+CD31+ subset. On the other hand, no remarkable differences in expression of BCL-2 or IL-7 Receptor (CD127) at baseline or following in vitro media or IL7 containing culture were observed. In the longitudinal cohort, naïve CD4+CD31+/CD31- ratio tended to increase 24 weeks after DAA therapy initiation. Conclusions Activation and apoptosis of peripheral naïve CD4+CD31+ T cells appear to contribute to naïve CD4+ lymphopenia in chronic HCV infection, and this defect is partially reversible with HCV DAA therapy. Age and cirrhosis -associated naïve CD4+ lymphopenia is present both before and after HCV DAA therapy. These findings have implications for restoration of host immune function after DAA therapy.

Abstract
Marine mammals can play important ecological roles in aquatic ecosystems, and their presence can be key to community structure and function. Consequently, marine mammals are often considered indicators of ecosystem health and flagship species. Yet, historical population declines caused by exploitation, and additional current threats, such as climate change, fisheries bycatch, pollution and maritime development, continue to impact many marine mammal species, and at least 25% are classified as threatened (Critically Endangered, Endangered or Vulnerable) on the IUCN Red List. Conversely, some species have experienced population increases/recoveries in recent decades, reflecting management interventions, and are heralded as conservation successes. To continue these successes and reverse the downward trajectories of at-risk species, it is necessary to evaluate the threats faced by marine mammals and the conservation mechanisms available to address them. Additionally, there is a need to identify evidence-based priorities of both research and conservation needs across a range of settings and taxa. To that effect we: (1) outline the key threats to marine mammals and their impacts, identify the associated knowledge gaps and recommend actions needed; (2) discuss the merits and downfalls of established and emerging conservation mechanisms; (3) outline the application of research and monitoring techniques; and (4) highlight particular taxa/populations that are in urgent need of focus.

Abstract
The SARS-CoV-2 pandemic impact on nursing home (NH) residents prompted their prioritization for early vaccination. To fill the data gap for vaccine immunogenicity in NH residents, we examined antibody levels after BNT162b2 mRNA vaccine to spike, receptor binding domain (RBD) and for virus neutralization in 149 NH residents and 111 health care worker controls. SARS-CoV-2-naive NH residents mount antibody responses with nearly 4-fold lower median neutralization titers and half the anti-spike level compared to SARS-CoV-2-naive healthcare workers. By contrast, SARS-CoV-2-recovered vaccinated NH residents had neutralization, anti-spike and anti-RBD titers similar to SARS-CoV-2-recovered vaccinated healthcare workers. NH residents' blunted antibody responses have important implications regarding the quality and durability of protection afforded by neoantigen vaccines. We urgently need better longitudinal evidence on vaccine effectiveness specific to NH resident populations to inform best practices for NH infection control measures, outbreak prevention and potential indication for a vaccine boost.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Recent publications have reported an association between increased renal cancer-specific mortality (CSM) and reduced renal function "below safety limits," and advocated for partial nephrectomy (PN) even for potentially aggressive/complex tumors. We hypothesize that this association may be related to confounding factors rather than a consequence of functional differences. OBJECTIVE To assess whether there is an independent association between preoperative estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) or new baseline eGFR (NB-GFR) and CSM in patients undergoing PN or radical nephrectomy (RN). DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS A single-center retrospective review was performed. All clinically and pathologically confirmed T1-T3a/N0/M0 renal cancer patients undergoing PN/RN (1999-2008, n = 1605) with adequate functional/oncological data were included. OUTCOME MEASUREMENTS AND STATISTICAL ANALYSIS The primary endpoint was CSM. Secondary endpoints were cancer recurrence (CR) and all-cause mortality (ACM). Cox regression analyses investigated endpoints and predictive factors. RESULTS AND LIMITATIONS The median age was 60 yr and 64% of patients were male. Comorbidities included hypertension (60%), cardiovascular disease (19%), diabetes (21%), and chronic kidney disease (22%). PN was performed in 954 patients (59%). The median preoperative eGFR and NB-GFR were 80 and 60 ml/min/1.73 m2, respectively. Median tumor diameter was 3.6 cm (interquartile range [IQR] = 2.4, 5.5); 70% of tumors were clear cell and 40% were of high grade. Pathology revealed pT1-2/N0/M0 and pT3a/N0/M0 in 81% and 19%, respectively. The median follow-up among survivors was 11.5 yr (IQR = 4, 14). Cancer-specific survival, recurrence-free survival, and overall survival were 94%, 88%, and 73% at 10 yr, respectively. On multivariable analysis, increased age (hazard ratio [HR] = 1.03, p = 0.04), increased tumor size (HR = 1.24, p < 0.01), tumor grade 3/4 (HR = 3.17, p < 0.01), and clear-cell histology (HR = 2.92, p < 0.01) were associated with increased hazard of CSM. Neither preoperative eGFR nor NB-GFR was significantly associated with CSM or CR (all p > 0.1), while an increased preoperative eGFR was associated with reduced hazard of ACM (HR = 0.87, p < 0.01). Limitations include retrospective design and a potential selection bias. CONCLUSIONS Our data do not support oncological protection of greater preservation of renal function and confirm that unfavorable oncological outcomes for localized RCC are mostly associated with aggressive tumor characteristics. PATIENT SUMMARY We did not find an association between greater preservation of renal function and oncological outcomes for kidney cancer.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare post-procedural outcomes of trans-catheter valve replacement (TAVR) among safety-net (SNH) and non-safety net hospitals (non-SNH). BACKGROUND SNH treat a large population of un-insured and low income patients; prior studies report worse outcome at these centers. Results of TAVR at these centers is limited. METHODS Adults undergoing TAVR at hospitals in the US participating in the National In-patient sample (NIS) database from January 2014 to December 2015 were included. A 1:1 propensity-matched cohort of patients operated at SNH and non-SNH institutions was analyzed, on the basis of 16 demographic and clinical co-variates. Main outcome was all-cause post-procedural mortality. Secondary outcomes included stroke, acute kidney injury and length of post-operative stay. RESULTS Between 2014 and 2015, 41,410 patients (mean age 80 ± 0.11 years, 46% female) underwent TAVR at 731 centers; 6,996 (16.80%) procedures were performed at SNH comprising 135/731 (18.4%) of all centers performing TAVR. SNH patients were more likely to be female (49% vs. 46%, p < .001); admitted emergently (31% vs. 21%; p < .001; at the lowest quartile for household income (25% % vs. 20%; p < .001) and from minorities (Blacks 5.9% vs. 3.9%; Hispanic 7.2% vs. 3.2%).Adjusted logistic regression was performed on 6,995 propensity-matched patient pairs. Post-procedural mortality [OR 0.99(0.98-1.007); p = .43], stroke [OR 1.009(0.99-1.02); p = .08], acute kidney injury [OR 0.99(0.96-1.01); p = .5] and overall length of stay (6.9 ± 0.1 vs. 7.1 ± 0.2 days; p = .57) were comparable in both cohorts. CONCLUSION Post-procedural outcomes after TAVR at SNH are comparable to national outcomes and wider adoption of TAVR at SNH may not adversely influence outcomes.

Abstract
Background An estimated 30% of antibiotic prescriptions in outpatient settings may be inappropriate. Antibiotic exposure increases an individual’s risk of Clostridioides difficile infection (CDI) and acquiring drug-resistant pathogens. To quantify the increased risk of CDI and drug-resistant pathogens posed by antibiotics prescribed in outpatient visits, we examined a two-year cohort of patients seen in primary care clinics at VA Community-Based Outpatient Clinics (CBOC) associated with a large VA Medical Center. Methods Among patients with an in-person visit at 13 CBOCs in 2018–2019, we examined rates of antibiotic-associated adverse events (AEs), defined as community-onset CDI or acquisition of resistant Gram-negative bacteria (R-GNB), in the 90 days following those visits. For each visit, we used administrative databases to determine if systemic antibiotics were prescribed, if there was an associated infectious diagnosis, and the subsequent occurrence of AEs. We summarized quarterly rates of prescribed antibiotics and AEs, characterized patients with and without AEs, and estimated the risk ratio of AE for an antibiotic prescription. Results Following 236,665 primary care visits, we observed 62 and 225 AEs due to CDI and R-GNB, respectively (0.12% combined rate) among 278 patients (5 with both). Patients who developed CDI or R-GNB had a higher Charlson Comorbidity Index (3.6 ± SD 3.0 and 2.68 ± SD 2.7, respectively) compared to those without AEs (0.72 ± SD 1.3; Table). The rate of new antibiotic prescriptions was 4% in visits without and 10% in visits with a subsequent AE, yielding a risk ratio of 2.5 (95% CI: 1.7–3.7). The rates of both antibiotic prescribing and AE were steady over the examined two-year period (Figure). Table ![]()
Figure ![]()
Conclusion Among all patients with a CBOC visit between 2018–2019, an AE, defined as CDI or R-GNB acquisition, was observed following only 0.1% of primary care visits. Among patients who experienced an AE, only 10% of primary care visits preceding those events included a new antibiotic prescription. While this analysis does not address antibiotics during inpatient stays or prescribed by specialty clinics, these findings suggest that among Veterans, outpatient antibiotic exposure may have only a modest contribution to the risk of AE.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Community acquired pneumonia (CAP) remains a major cause of morbidity and mortality. Risk factors for CAP are often grouped as moderate- (e.g., diabetes mellitus, chronic liver, lung, or heart disease) and high-risk (e.g., immunosuppressive) conditions, which in turn influences preventative strategies, notably pneumococcal vaccination. Here, we use the national VHA databases to assess the risk of CAP among adults, expanding on previous work by using administrative data to assess the incidence of CAP among people with > 1 moderate risk condition
Methods
We used the national VHA databases merged with claims summaries from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) to identify patients receiving clinical care in the VHA without clinical Medicare claims in 2016-2017. Within this population, we identified CAP cases defined by the presence of a diagnostic code for pneumonia, chest X-ray, and antibiotics as well as the absence of healthcare exposure or antibiotics in prior 90 days. We determined the total patient years at risk and calculated incidence rates by age group and by moderate- and high-risk comorbid conditions.
Results
We identified 37,348 CAP cases in 7.9 million person-years at risk and observed similar annual rates in 2016 and 2017 (468.9 and 472.2 cases/100,000 person-years, respectively). The prevalence of high-risk conditions and incidence of CAP increased with age whereas the prevalence of >1 moderate-risk condition peaked for ages 50-64 and 65-74 years (Table). The incidence of CAP among those with > 1 moderate-risk condition exceeded that of patients with high-risk conditions across all age strata (Figure).
Table
Figure
Conclusion
Age-adjusted analysis revealed that the greatest burden of CAP occurs in patients with > 1 moderate-risk condition, even compared to those with a high-risk condition. Our analysis of CAP based on national VHA data suggest that additional preventative health measures directed at individuals older than 50 years with > 1 moderate-risk condition may help to reduce the burden of CAP and limit its morbidity and mortality.

Abstract
Background During the Coronavirus Disease 2019 pandemic, shortages of personal protective equipment (PPE) have forced many healthcare facilities to require personnel to reuse N95 respirators. We hypothesized that use of correct technique such as changing gloves after N95 contact or providing rapid decontamination between each use would reduce the risk for contamination. Methods We conducted a randomized crossover study using simulated patient care interactions to compare the effectiveness of interventions to reduce contamination of personnel and the environment with high-level N95 contamination (107 plaque-forming units [PFU] of bacteriophage MS2 applied to front of respirator). Ten healthcare personnel performed 4 randomly-assigned standardized examinations of mannequins including: 1) Control (PPE donning and doffing not including glove change after N95 contact); 2) Glove change after any N95 contact; 3) Control with 1-minute ultraviolet-C light (UV-C) treatment between simulations; 4) Control with 30-second steam treatment between simulations. A second trial was conducted with groups 1–3 using a lower inoculum (105 PFU). The frequencies of participant and environmental contamination were compared. Results As shown in Figure 1.A, use of a highly contaminated N95 respirator resulted in frequent MS2 contamination in the Control, Glove change, and UV-C groups, but was dramatically reduced with steam treatment of the N95. With the lower level of contamination, MS2 contamination occurred less frequently across all groups, and was significantly reduced in the UV group, compared to the Control (Figure 1.B). Figure 1: Bacteriophage MS2 contamination during simulated patient care interactions with contaminated N95 respirators ![]()
Conclusion Reuse of contaminated N95 respirators resulted in contamination of personnel and the environment even when correct technique was used. Rapid decontamination technologies can reduce the risk for transmission. Disclosures All Authors: No reported disclosures

Abstract
Background
Epidemiological studies that assess invasive Group B Streptococcus (GBS) infections may not capture cases of osteomyelitis diagnosed using non-invasive cultures in combination with imaging, laboratory tests, and clinical assessment. Here, we compare GBS osteomyelitis among individuals diagnosed using invasive and non-invasive cultures.
Methods
Using the Veterans Health Administration corporate data warehouse, we studied a national retrospective cohort review of Veterans diagnosed with GBS osteomyelitis between 2008 – 2017. Invasive cases were defined as an International Classification of Disease (ICD) code for osteomyelitis accompanied by a blood or bone culture positive for GBS within 2 weeks. Non-invasive cases were defined as an ICD code for osteomyelitis and a non-invasive culture positive for GBS from a concordant site within 2 weeks. We compared demographics, comorbid conditions, mortality, and time to below- or above-knee amputation among patients with invasive and non-invasive GBS osteomyelitis.
Results
We identified 1167 cases of invasive osteomyelitis among 1077 patients and 692 cases of non-invasive osteomyelitis among 644 patients. Most patients were male (98%) with an average age of 63.2 years (± standard deviation (SD) 10.1 years). The Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI) was similar among patients with invasive and non-invasive disease (3.85 ± SD 2.3 and 3.83 ± SD2.4, respectively). Among those with lower extremity osteomyelitis, 11% of invasive cases had an amputation at 30 days while 2% of non-invasive cases had an amputation in the same time frame (Figure 1). Mortality was similar among those with invasive and non-invasive GBS osteomyelitis at 30-days (1% and 1%, respectively) and at 1-year (11% and 9%, respectively) (Figure 2).

Figure 2: Survival
Conclusion
Over 1/3 of the cases of osteomyelitis caused by GBS do not meet the case definition for invasive disease. Whether diagnosed using invasive or non-invasive microbiological cultures, survival outcomes for people with GBS osteomyelitis were similar. These findings suggest that non-invasive GBS osteomyelitis is as clinically important as invasive GBS osteomyelitis and that the rates of GBS osteomyelitis may be higher than previously reported.

Abstract
It is unclear whether aspirin is beneficial for prevention of CVD in patients with CKD. We performed a secondary analysis of the ALLHAT trial to assess the effect of baseline aspirin use on nonfatal myocardial infarction (MI) or fatal coronary heart disease (CHD), all‐cause mortality, and stroke. Baseline characteristics of aspirin users and nonusers were used to generate propensity‐matched cohorts. Using conditional Cox proportional hazard regression models, we examined the effect of aspirin on the outcomes in the cohort at large and across 3 levels of kidney function (eGFR ≥90, 60–89, and <60). 11 250 ALLHAT participants reported using aspirin at baseline. The propensity‐matched dataset included 6894 nonusers matched with replacement to achieve a balanced analysis population (n = 22 500). Risk of fatal CHD or nonfatal MI (HR = 0.94, 95% CI 0.86–1.02) and stroke (HR = 1.01, 95% CI 0.89–1.15) was not significantly different between groups. Aspirin users were at significantly lower risk of all‐cause mortality compared to nonusers (HR = 0.82, 95% CI 0.76–0.88). Aspirin use was not associated with incidence of fatal CAD or nonfatal MI in patients with CVD (HR = 0.93, CI 0.84–1.04) or without CVD at baseline (HR = 1.04, CI 0.82–1.32). Results were consistent across strata of GFR (interaction p value NS). In hypertensive patients at high cardiovascular risk, aspirin use is not associated with risk of nonfatal MI, fatal CHD, or stroke; however, aspirin use is associated with lower risk of all‐cause mortality. These results are consistent across baseline eGFR.

Abstract
National data indicate about 50% of junior faculty leave a School of Medicine (SOM) within eight years of hire. The long-term goal of the study was to determine innovative strategies for promoting SOM faculty retention. The study objective was to determine factors influencing SOM faculty to exit, and what would encourage them to stay or return. All faculty exiting the University of New Mexico (UNM) SOM were surveyed and their responses analyzed to the following items: (a) If something could have been done differently that might have resulted in staying at UNM, what would it have been? (b) What would need to change at UNM SOM for you to return? and (c) general comments offered. Qualitative analysis of open-ended responses used an iterative process and systematic thematic approach and NVivo software. 173 faculty respondents surveyed between July 2017 and June 2019 included 86 women, 33 non-Caucasians, and 14 Hispanics. A total of 110 faculty reported an MD degree and 117 were assistant professors. Seventy-eight faculty were on clinician educator track. The 367 responses to the three questions were categorized into 10 themes. The most common themes included (a) people (leadership and others) and workplace culture (25.1% of responses); (b) extent of career support and resources (15.3%); (c) organizational systems and administration (13.6%); and (d) faculty feelings of autonomy and value (10.9%). Exiting faculty frequently discussed the need for a change of leadership and changes in organizational climate and culture, which may have influenced their willingness to stay or to return to UNM SOM. To retain faculty, SOM leaders need to strengthen and/or modify organizational climate and culture components. Innovative strategies for this purpose may include organizational interventions followed by evidence-based leadership training programs, and the use of exit surveys for monitoring interventions.

Abstract
National data indicate that 50% of assistant professors leave a School of Medicine (SOM) within eight years of hire. At-risk for attrition in some studies are women, racial/ethnic underrepresented minorities (URM), and clinical faculty. Retention of faculty is not adequately studied in the Southwestern US, where at-risk faculty constitute the majority group. The study hypothesized that at-risk faculty have lower retention rates than those not at-risk. Identification of factors predicting retention of at-risk faculty may help institutions devise novel and targeted retention strategies. Prospective time to event analyses studied assistant professors hired at the University of New Mexico's (UNM) SOM from 2008-2019. Eight factors, measured at the time of hire, included: rank, race/ethnicity, gender, MD degree, academic track, department type, salary, and fiscal year of hire. Univariate analyses included graphical analysis of Kaplan-Meier analysis and Cox proportional hazard ratios with years to departure measuring the main event to resignation. 844 full-time junior faculty included 50% women, 81% physicians, 42% clinician educators, and 18% racial/ethnic URM. Compared to non-Hispanic Whites, Black faculty (HR = 2.24, 1.25-4.03) and faculty with non-US degree (1.53, 1.19-1.94) had a higher risk of leaving. Faculty in clinician educator (2.01, 1.06-3.82) or visiting research tracks (2.41, 1.20-4.84) both had higher risk of leaving than tenure track faculty. Although URM faculty did not have an overall higher risk of departure, male faculty had higher risk of leaving than women when they are URM or unknown-URM status. In our analysis of junior faculty, we showed that faculty who were Black, had an international education, and in clinician educator or visiting research tracks were at greater risk of leaving, but women and Hispanic faculty had similar retention rates as their respective counterparts at UNM SOM. The differential retention rates among several at-risk subgroups of junior faculty may indicate the need to refocus the existing diversity and faculty development programs at UNM SOM.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Data regarding 10-year survival and adverse cardiovascular events in patients with metabolic syndrome (MET) after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) is limited. METHODS We compared 10-year events rates for veterans undergoing isolated CABG (January 1, 2005, to December 31, 2014, follow-up October 31, 2019) stratified by presence of metabolic syndrome (MET+) versus without (MET-). A multivariable weighted Cox model was used to analyze all-cause mortality. Competing risk analysis was used to calculate cumulative event rates for congestive heart failure, myocardial infarction, and cerebrovascular events. The Fine-Gray subhazard model was used to determine adjusted association of MET with myocardial infarction and stroke. Congestive heart failure was modeled as a recurrent-event analysis. RESULTS Nationally, 9615 adults (median age, 60 years; 98.9% men) underwent isolated coronary artery bypass grafting at 41 centers); among them, 3121 out of 9615 (32.5%) had MET. The prevalence of MET increased from (27.88% in 2005 to 34.02% in 2014; P = .02). MET+ group members were likely younger (median age, 63 vs 64 years; P < .01), White (72% vs 68%), and had more peripheral vascular disease (30% vs 28%; P = .04). Multivessel (72% vs 70%; P = .23) and multiarterial (4% vs 4%; P = .14) grafting was performed equally. With a median follow-up of 6.5 years, survival was similar (P = .26); however, MET was associated with higher risks for myocardial infarction (21% vs 16%; hazard ratio, 1.3; P < .01) and recurrent admissions for congestive heart failure. CONCLUSIONS Patients with metabolic syndrome undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting have higher 10-year cardiovascular event rates.

Abstract
There is an increasing incidence of infectious complications caused by extraintestinal pathogenic Escherichia coli (ExPEC) after transrectal ultrasound-guided prostate needle biopsy (TRUS-PNB), and a need for prophylaxis methods effective against associated antibiotic-resistant organisms. We aimed to identify the O-serotypes of ExPEC isolates collected in a sample of 60 patients with invasive ExPEC disease (IED) after TRUS-PNB, by serotype-specific agglutination and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assays. The prevalence of O-serotypes included in a tetravalent ExPEC vaccine was 38.3% by agglutination and 46.7% by PCR, while the prevalence of O-serotypes included in a decavalent vaccine was 58.3% and 73.3%, respectively. Therefore, compared to the tetravalent vaccine, the decavalent vaccine would theoretically provide coverage for serotypes carried by a higher proportion of circulating ExPEC in patients undergoing TRUS-PNB, including a high proportion of antibiotic-resistant organisms.

Abstract
Introduction:
Safety-net hospitals (SNH) treat a large population of un-insured and low income patients; several prior studies report worse outcome at these centers. Trans-catheter valve replacement (TAVR) is emerging as first-line therapy for aortic stenosis irrespective of surgical risk scores. However, results of TAVR performed at these centers is limited.
Objective:
To determine whether post-procedural outcomes of TAVR are comparable at safety-net (SNH) and non-safety net hospitals (non-SNH).
Methods:
We conducted a retrospective, cohort study with propensity-matched analysis. Complex survey data from the Agency for Healthcare Quality and Research containing weighted sample of all hospital admissions nationwide was utilized for this study. Adults undergoing TAVR at US hospitals participating in the National In-patient sample (NIS) database from January 2014 - December 2015 were included. A 1:1 propensity-matched cohort of patients operated at safety-net hospitals (SNH) and non-SNH institutions was analyzed. Propensity-matching was performed on the basis of sixteen demographic and clinical confounding co-variates. Main outcome studied was all-cause post-procedural mortality. Secondary outcomes compared were stroke, acute kidney injury and length of post-operative stay.
Results:
Between 2014 - 2015, 41410 patients (mean age 80 +/- 0.11 years, 46% female) underwent TAVR at 731 centers nationwide; 6996 (16.80 %) procedures were performed at safety net centers. SNH comprised 135/731 (18.4%) of all centers performing TAVR. SNH patients were more likely to be female (49 % vs 46 %, p <0.001); admitted emergently (31% vs 21%; p <0.001) and at the lowest quartile for household income (25% % vs 20 %; p <0.001). A large proportion of SNH patients were minorities (Blacks 5.9% vs 3.9%; Hispanic 7.2% vs 3.2%). Adjusted logistic regression was performed on 6995 propensity-matched patient pairs. Post-procedural mortality [OR 0.99 (0.98 - 1.007); p = 0.43], stroke [OR 1.009 (0.99-1.02); p = 0.08], and acute kidney injury [OR 0.99 (0.96 - 1.01); p = 0.5] were comparable in both cohorts. Overall length of stay was also similar (6.9 +/- 0.1 vs 7.1 +/- 0.2 days; p = 057).
Conclusion:
Post-procedural outcomes after TAVR at SNH are comparable to national outcomes. Our study provides preliminary evidence that wider adoption of TAVR may not adversely influence outcomes at SNH.
