Abstract
OBJECTIVES Immune-mediated inflammatory diseases (IMIDs) represent a high burden due to their chronicity, high prevalence, and associated comorbidities. Chronic patients' preferences must be considered in IMIDs treatment and follow-up. The objective of this study was to further understand patient's preferences in private settings. METHODS A literature review was performed to choose the most relevant criteria for patients. A D-efficient discrete choice experiment was designed to elicit preferences of adult patients with IMIDs and potential biological treatment prescription. Participants were collected from private practices (rheumatology, dermatology, and gastroenterology) from February to May 2022. Patients chose between option pairs, characterized by six health-care attributes, as well as monthly out-of-pocket drug price. Responses were analyzed through a conditional logit model. RESULTS Eighty-seven patients answered the questionnaire. The most frequent pathologies were Rheumatoid Arthritis (31%) and Psoriatic Arthritis (26%). The most relevant criteria were choosing the preferred physician (OR 2.25 [SD0.26]); reducing time until visit with specialist (OR 1.79 [SD0.20]), access through primary care (OR 1.60 [SD0.08]), and an increase in monthly out-of-pocket price from 100€ to 300€ (OR 0.55 [SD0.06]) and to 600€ (OR 0.08 [SD0.02]). CONCLUSIONS Chronic IMIDs patients showed a preference toward a faster, personalized service, even with a trade-off in terms of out-of-pocket price.

Abstract
Adult neurogenesis is an aspect of structural plasticity that remains active during adulthood in some brain regions. One of them is the subgranular zone (SGZ) of the dentate gyrus of the hippocampus. Adult neurogenesis is reduced by different factors and in disorders of the CNS, including major depression. Antidepressant treatments, such as chronic fluoxetine administration, recover the normal level of adult neurogenesis. Fluoxetine treatment increases the free concentration of the neurotransmitter serotonin and this monoamine is implicated in the regulation of the neurogenic process; however, the target of the action of this neurotransmitter has not been fully elucidated. In this study, we have tried to determine the relevance of the serotonin receptor 3 (5-HT3) in the hippocampal neurogenesis of adult rats. We have used fluorescent immunohistochemistry to study the expression of the 5-HT3 receptor in different neurogenesis stages in the SGZ, identifying its expression in stem cells, amplifying neural progenitors and immature neurons. Moreover, we have studied the impact of a 5-HT3 antagonist (ondansetron) in the fluoxetine-induced adult neurogenesis. We observed that fluoxetine alone increases the number of both proliferating cells (ki67 positive) and immature neurons (DCX positive) in the SGZ. By contrast, co-treatment with ondansetron blocked the increase in proliferation and neurogenesis. This study demonstrates that the activation of 5-HT3 receptors is necessary for the increase of adult neurogenesis induced by fluoxetine.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Retrospective data suggest better outcomes for patients with double hormonal receptor (oestrogen [ER] and progesterone receptor [PgR])-positive (dHR+) early breast cancer, compared with single hormonal receptor-positive, sHR+, (ER+/PgR- or ER-/PgR+) disease. Here, we evaluate the classification according to intrinsic subtypes and clinical outcomes of sHR+ versus dHR+ in HER2-negative breast cancer patients enrolled in GEICAM/9906 study (NCT00129922). METHODS Archival tumours were retrieved retrospectively for the analysis of ER, PgR and HER2 status and classified into intrinsic subtypes using the PAM50 gene expression assay. Disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) were explored using a Cox proportional hazard analysis. RESULTS Data on intrinsic subtypes were available in 571 (50%) patients with ER+ and/or PR+, and HER2-negative primary tumours. The incidence of luminal A and luminal B subtypes were 52%/36% in dHR+ tumours (ER+/PgR+), and 15%/58% in ER+/PgR-tumours. ER-/PgR+ tumours were mainly luminal A (52%). Compared with ER+/PgR+ patients, DFS was similar in ER-/PgR+ (hazard ratio [HR] 1.15, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.57-2.34, p = 0.70) but worse in ER+/PgR- patients (HR 1.60, 95% CI 1.12-2.28, p < 0.01). Similar results were observed for OS (HR 1.50, p = 0.30 and HR 1.86, p < 0.01, respectively). CONCLUSIONS The ER+/PgR- group is characterised by higher proliferation and worse outcomes. In spite of the ER-/PgR+ subgroup resembles ER+/PgR+ disease in terms of molecular subtypes and outcomes, the small number of patients in this subgroup prevents from drawing any conclusions.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Apixaban, dabigatran and rivaroxaban are three new direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) used in the prevention of stroke and systemic embolism in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) in Spain. AIM To assess the relative cost-utility of the three DOACs compared with vitamin K antagonists. PATIENTS AND METHODS A Markov model with 3-month cycles was used to simulate NVAF patients starting with treatment and followed up for their lifetime from the perspective of the National Health System. The model included 36 health states including treatment combinations, disability and events history and considered a hypothetical cohort of 10,000 NVAF patients. Relative efficacy was calculated from a formal indirect treatment comparison using data from the pivotal trials of each DOAC. RESULTS Dabigatran was associated with the highest number of quality-adjusted life years (QALY) (8.40 QALY), followed by apixaban (8.33 QALY), rivaroxaban (8.15 QALY) and acenocoumarol (8.03 QALY). Patients taking acenocoumarol had the lowest total costs (€22,230), followed by dabigatran (€24,564), apixaban (€24,655) and rivaroxaban (€25,900). Incremental cost-utility ratios compared to vitamin K antagonists, were €6,397, €8,039 and €29,957/QALY for dabigatran, apixaban and rivaroxaban, respectively. If compared together, dabigatran dominated apixaban and rivaroxaban. Sensitivity analyses confirmed the robustness of the baseline case. CONCLUSIONS All three direct anticoagulants are cost-effective against acenocoumarol. Dabigatran is economically dominant over rivaroxaban and apixaban in the Spanish setting, as it is more effective and cheaper.

Abstract
The aim of this work was to evaluate the influence of anatomical variability between subjects and of the partial volume effect (PVE) on the standardized Specific Uptake Ratio (SUR) in [(123)I]FP-bib SPECT studies. To this end, magnetic resonance (MR) images of 23 subjects with differences in the striatal volume of up to 44% were segmented and used to generate a database of 138 Monte Carlo simulated SPECT studies. Data included normal uptakes and pathological cases. Studies were reconstructed by filtered back projection (FBP) and the ordered-subset expectation-maximization algorithm. Quantification was carried out by applying a reference method based on regions of interest (ROIs) derived from the MR images and ROIs derived from the Automated Anatomical Labelling map. Our results showed that, regardless of anatomical variability, the relationship between calculated and true SUR values for caudate and putamen could be described by a multiple linear model which took into account the spill-over phenomenon caused by PVE (R² ≥ 0.963 for caudate and ≥0.980 for putamen) and also by a simple linear model (R(2) ≥ 0.952 for caudate and ≥0.973 for putamen). Calculated values were standardized by inverting both linear systems. Differences between standardized and true values showed that, although the multiple linear model was the best approach in terms of variability (X² ≥ 11.79 for caudate and ≤7.36 for putamen), standardization based on a simple linear model was also suitable (X² ≥ 12.44 for caudate and ≤12.57 for putamen).

Abstract
BACKGROUND Children's health-related quality of life (HrQoL) and psychological problems are important outcomes to consider in clinical decision making in paediatric asthma. However, children's and parents' reports often differ. The present study aimed to examine the levels of agreement/disagreement between children's and parents' reports of HrQoL and psychological problems and to identify socio-demographic, clinical and family variables associated with the extent and direction of (dis)agreement. METHODS The sample comprised 279 dyads of Portuguese children with asthma who were between 8 and 18 years of age (M = 12.13; SD = 2.56) and one of their parents. The participants completed self- and proxy-reported questionnaires on paediatric generic HrQoL (KIDSCREEN-10), chronic-generic HrQoL (DISABKIDS-37) and psychological problems (Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire). Children's and parents' perceptions of family relationships were measured with the Family Environment Scale and the caregiving burden was assessed using the Revised Burden Measure. RESULTS The child-parent agreement on reported HrQoL and psychological problems was poor to moderate (intraclass correlation coefficients between 0.32 and 0.47). The rates of child-parent discrepancies ranged between 52.7% (psychological problems) and 68.8% (generic HrQoL), with 50.5% and 31.5% of the parents reporting worse generic and chronic-generic HrQoL, respectively, and 33.3% reporting more psychological problems than their children. The extent and direction of disagreement were better explained by family factors than by socio-demographic and clinical variables: a greater caregiving burden was associated with increased discrepancies in both directions and children's and parents' perceptions of less positive family relationships were associated with discrepancies in different directions. CONCLUSIONS Routine assessment of paediatric HrQoL and psychological problems in healthcare and research contexts should include self- and parent-reported data as complementary sources of information, and also consider the family context. The additional cost of conducting a more in-depth assessment of paediatric adaptation outcomes can be offset through more efficient allocation of health resources.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION At present, there is a lack of economic assessments of second-line treatments for relapsing-recurring multiple sclerosis. The aim of this study was to compare the efficiency between fingolimod and natalizumab in Spain. METHODS A cost minimisation analysis model was developed for a 2-year horizon. The same relapse rate was applied to both treatment arms and the cost of resources was calculated using Spain's stipulated rates for 2012 in euros. The analysis was conducted from the perspective of Spain's national health system and an annual discount rate of 3% was applied to future costs. A sensitivity analysis was performed to validate the robustness of the model. RESULTS Indirect comparison of fingolimod with natalizumab revealed no significant differences (hazard ratio between 0.82 and 1.07). The total direct cost, considering a 2-year analytical horizon, a 7.5% discount stipulated by Royal Decree, and a mean annual relapse rate of 0.22, was € 40914.72 for fingolimod and € 45890.53 for natalizumab. Of the total direct costs that were analysed, the maximum cost savings derived from prescribing fingolimod prescription was € 4363.63, corresponding to lower administration and treatment maintenance costs. Based on the sensitivity analysis performed, fingolimod use was associated with average savings of 11% (range 3.1%-18.7%). CONCLUSIONS Fingolimod is more efficient than natalizumab as a second-line treatment option for relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis and it generates savings for the Spanish national health system.

Abstract
The association between physical activity (PA) and C-reactive protein (CRP) is inconsistent, with nearly all studies using self-report measures of PA. The purpose of this study was to examine the association between objectively measured PA and CRP in US adults and children. Adults (N=2912) and children (N=1643) with valid accelerometer data and CRP data were included in the analyses. Logistic regression analysis was used to assess the odds of meeting PA guidelines across CRP quartiles for children and among adults with low, average, and high CRP levels. For adults, after adjustments for age, gender, race, body mass index, smoking, diabetes, and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), compared with those with low CRP levels, odds ratios were 0.59 (CI=0.45-0.77) and 0.46 (CI=0.28-0.76) for participants with average and high CRP levels, respectively. For children, after adjustments for age, gender, race, weight status, and HDL-C, compared with those in CRP quartile 1, odds ratios were 0.96 (CI=0.5-1.84), 1.23 (CI=0.71-2.12), and 0.79 (CI=0.33-1.88) for participants in quartiles 2, 3, and 4, respectively. Objectively measured PA is inversely associated with CRP in adults, with PA not related to CRP in children.

Abstract
This study had two main objectives: first, to examine the direct and indirect effects, via social support, of caregiving burden on the adaptation outcomes of children/adolescents with cerebral palsy and their parents; and second, to assess the invariance of such models in clinical vs. healthy subsamples. Participants were 210 dyads of children/adolescents and one of their parents (total N=420), divided in 93 dyads of children/adolescents with cerebral palsy and 117 dyads of children/adolescents with no medical diagnosis. Data on caregiving burden, social support and adaptation outcomes were obtained through self-report questionnaires. Caregiving burden was linked to parents and their children's psychological maladjustment and quality of life both directly (except for children's quality of life) and indirectly through social support. Findings were invariant across clinical and healthy subsamples. Caregiving burden may influence adaptation outcomes of children/adolescents with CP and their parents both directly and via their social support perceptions. These patterns are similar to those observed in typically developing children/adolescents.

Abstract
Background: The presence of bone metastases (BMe) alters the balance of bone remodeling and consequently, levels of bone turnover markers (BTM). Increased levels of these biomarkers are related to the risk of skeletal-related events (SREs), disease progression and death. Treatment with bisphosphonates reduces the probability of SREs through osteoclastic activity inhibition. The aim of this study was to determine the relation between BTM, bone metastasis development and SREs, disease progression and death in patients with breast cancer (BC) and BMe.
Patients and methods: Observational, prospective and multicenter study. Patients with BC and BMe; no previous bone treatment in the last 6 months prior to study entry. Urinary aminoterminal telopeptide of collagen I (NTX, Osteomark NTx Urine, Wampole Laboratories, USA); urinary alpha-alpha-isomer of carboxyterminal telopeptide of collagen I (αα-CTX, ALPHA Crosslaps EIA, ids, UK) and serum bone alkaline phosphatase (BALP, OSTASE BAP, ids, UK) were determined at baseline (V0) and every 3 mo along 18 months (V6). Patients were treated with zoledronic acid (ZA) at inclusion and every 3–4 weeks.
Results: 234 patients with BC and BMe were analyzed. BTM results were available for 219 patients at basal visit (V0) and every 3 mo of treatment along 18 months (V6). Population basal characteristics (234 patients): mean age: 59.8 years; ER+: 80.3%; PR+: 64.9%; HER 2+: 18.3%. Patients with pathologic baseline levels were: 49.8% NTX, 39.6% αα-CTX and 83.4% BALP. A significant decrease was observed in BTM at V2 vs V0 after 6 months: 13.7%, 8.4% and 58.4% presented pathologic values of NTX, αα-CTX and BALP respectively. Normalized levels remained steady throughout 18 mo follow-up, finding significant decrease for each BMT for each time point except at V6 for αα-CTX. Regarding association between BTM and SREs, progression and exitus, a significant association was observed between pathologic levels of BTM throughout follow-up: with SRE at V3, V4 for NTX; with disease progression at V3, V4, V5, V6 for NTX, at V2 for αα–CTX and at each follow up visit for BALP; and with death at V1,4,5 for NTX, at V5 for αα–CTX and at V1,2,3,4,5 for BALP.
Conclusions: Addition of ZA to standard systemic therapy reduced BTM levels during the first 3 months of treatment and normalized levels remained steady throughout 18 months follow up except at Month 18 for αα-CTX. Pathological levels of BTM were significantly associated with SRE, disease progression and death.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Retrospective clinical data suggest that high vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) levels in breast tumors are associated with a decreased response to endocrine therapy. We designed the randomized phase III LEA study of first-line bevacizumab in combination with endocrine therapy, to address the hypothesis that anti-VEGF treatment can prevent resistance to endocrine therapy in patients with advanced breast cancer sensitive to such treatment.
Methods: Postmenopausal patients with evaluable locally recurrent or metastatic breast cancer, HER2−negative- and estrogen receptor (ER)-and/or progesterone receptor (PgR)-positive disease, and eligible to receive hormonal treatment are candidates for this study. Patients are randomized to receive letrozole 2.5mg daily or fulvestrant, 250mg every 4 weeks (Arm A) or the same hormonal therapy plus bevacizumab 15mg/kg every 3 weeks (Arm B). The primary objective is to compare progression-free survival (PFS) between the treatment arms. Secondary endpoints are overall survival, time to treatment failure, overall response rate, response duration, clinical benefit rate and safety. In total, 344 patients (172 in each treatment arm) will be needed to detect a hazard ratio of 0.69 (corresponding to a median PFS of 9 months in Arm A and 13 months in Arm B) with a power of 80% and a two-tailed log-rank test at 0.05. With an expected drop-out rate of 10%, 378 patients will be included. Efficacy analysis will be triggered after 270 events.
Results: Recruitment began in November 2007. To date, 348 patients have been included in the study in Spain (n=244) and Germany (n=104). We anticipate completing recruitment by September 2011. Baseline characteristics of the first 334 randomized patients are shown in the table.
Conclusions: LEA is the first study to explore the use of an anti-angiogenic drug in combination with endocrine therapy in the context of a phase III study.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Trastuzumab has shown an improvement in survival outcomes among patients with HER2+ metastatic breast cancer (MBC). Identification of pathological, clinical factors and tumor genetic profile that may predict long-term remission has become a key-issue. We aimed to describe the clinicopathological and biological characteristics of MBC patients who experienced complete response (CR), partial response (PR), or stable disease (SD) during at least 3 years and their management in routine clinical practice.
Methods: Multicenter, observational, cross-sectional study. Data were collected from women with HER2+ MBC treated with a trastuzumab-based regimen who maintained a partial or complete remission or disease stabilization beyond 3 years. The interim results from the first 65 patients evaluated are presented.
Results: Median age: 59 (52-70) years. Metastatic disease was diagnosed after a median of 23.5 (1.6−48.8) months since primary tumor diagnosis. The predominant tumor type was ductal carcinoma (89.2%) and 47% showed histological grade III. Mean tumor size: 3.6±2.2cm (anatomical pathology), 5.1±2.8cm (imaging studies). Hormonal status: Progesterone receptor positive 46% and estrogen receptor positive 43%. Most common metastatic sites: lung (23%), liver (17%) and bone (14%). Overexpression of HER2 was assessed by IHC in 97% of patients, of whom 94% were HER2+ (3+) and 17% had FISH+ HER2 status. Tumor was positive for p53 and Ki67 in 23% and 41.5%, respectively. Surgery was performed on 83% of patients, of which 73% underwent radical mastectomy; 96% had their axillary nodes removed. Surgery of metastases was performed on 7.8%. First line chemotherapy was received by 91% with the most frequent schemes being paclitaxel (24%), vinorelbine (15%) and paclitaxel/carboplatine (14%). First line hormonal therapy and radiotherapy was used in 45% and 12%, respectively. All patients received first line trastuzumab, administered on a weekly schedule in 51%. Trastuzumab was used in combination in most of patients (89.2%) with a median number of cycles of 18 (7.0−41.5) and during a median of 53.3±25 months. 66% of patients achieved a CR, 21% PR and 13% had SD. Median time since trastuzumab was initiated to CR, PR or SD was 5 (4-7) months. Median duration of CR, PR or SD was 56 (44.5−78.0) months. Trastuzumab was maintained beyond CR, PR or SD in 99% during a median of 46.5 (35-67) months. 75% of patients continue on treatment with trastuzumab. Only 2 patients discontinued trastuzumab due to toxicity. At the time of the analysis, 19% had progressed, 57% were alive and free of disease and among patients on treatment (93%), 54% were on trastuzumab. Cardiac toxicity was the most common toxicity (36%) among those suffering at least one (22%).
Conclusions: The preliminary findings support that trastuzumab provides a substantial long-term survival benefit with a manageable safety profile in HER2+ MBC patients. This study adds to the evidence that there may be benefit in continuing trastuzumab after achieving remission or disease stabilization. Final results will be presented in the forthcoming congress.

Abstract
The life cycle of Brachylaima aspersae n. sp. (Trematoda: Brachylaimidae) in heliciculture farms is elucidated in light of field and experimental studies. Embryonated asymmetrical eggs (33.3 μm × 20.2 μm) are passed in the faeces of the definitive host, the domestic mouse (Mus musculus), and are ingested by its unique first intermediate host, the helicid snail Helix aspersa aspersa. After hatching, the miracidium develops into a highly branched sporocyst in the connective tissues of the digestive gland. Microcaudate cercariae emerging from this gastropod migrate up the ureter of the second intermediate host, the snails H. a. aspersa and H. a. maxima, and develop into non-encysted metacercariae in the kidney. Following predation of infected snails, the metacercariae develop into adults preferentially in the proximal portion of the duodenum of the definitive host. The strict oioxenic character for the first intermediate host, as well as the cercarial chaetotaxy (3 C(I)V+1 C(I)D, 10 C(II), 5 C(III)V, 14 C(III)L, 2 C(III)D, 16 H, 6 S(I), 6 S(II), 6 S(III), 2 A(I)L+1 A(I)V, 1 A(II)L, 3 ML, 1 P(I)L and 3 P(III)L), the distinct pars prostatica, the variable appearance of testes (rounded to irregular, with smooth or slightly to moderately lobulated margins), the size of eggs, the position of acetabulum (located somewhat posterior to the anterior third of body), and the microhabitat of the adult in the final host allow differentiation of B. aspersae from other well-known species in the genus. Massive infections with sporocysts or metacercariae of this brachylaimid may induce extensive pathological changes in the organs affected. Our results confirm that control of rodents in heliciculture farms is essential to minimize the potential health risks and morbimortality associated with this newly described species.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare the cost and effectiveness of the levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine system (LNG-IUS) versus combined oral contraception (COC) and progestogens (PROG) in first-line treatment of dysfunctional uterine bleeding (DUB) in Spain. STUDY DESIGN A cost-effectiveness and cost-utility analysis of LNG-IUS, COC and PROG was carried out using a Markov model based on clinical data from the literature and expert opinion. The population studied were women with a previous diagnosis of idiopathic heavy menstrual bleeding. The analysis was performed from the National Health System perspective, discounting both costs and future effects at 3%. In addition, a sensitivity analysis (univariate and probabilistic) was conducted. RESULTS The results show that the greater efficacy of LNG-IUS translates into a gain of 1.92 and 3.89 symptom-free months (SFM) after six months of treatment versus COC and PROG, respectively (which represents an increase of 33% and 60% of symptom-free time). Regarding costs, LNG-IUS produces savings of € 174.2-309.95 and € 230.54-577.61 versus COC and PROG, respectively, after 6 months-5 years. Apart from cost savings and gains in SFM, quality-adjusted life months (QALM) are also favourable to LNG-IUS in all scenarios, with a range of gains between 1 and 2 QALM compared to COC and PROG. CONCLUSIONS The results indicate that first-line use of the LNG-IUS is the dominant therapeutic option (less costly and more effective) in comparison with first-line use of COC or PROG for the treatment of DUB in Spain. LNG-IUS as first line is also the option that provides greatest health-related quality of life to patients.

Abstract
In this work we have analyzed the targets of the GABAergic afferents to the main olfactory bulb originating in the basal forebrain of the rat. We combined anterograde tracing of 10 kD biotinylated dextran amine (BDA) injected in the region of the horizontal limb of the diagonal band of Broca that projects to the main olfactory bulb, with immunocytochemical detection of GABA under electron microscopy or vesicular GABA transporter (vGABAt) under confocal fluorescent microscopy. GABAergic afferents were identified as double labeled BDA-GABA boutons. Their targets were identified by their ultrastructure and GABA content. We found that GABAergic afferents from the basal forebrain were distributed all over the bulbar lamination, but were more abundant in the glomerular and inframitral layers (i.e. internal plexiform layer and granule cell layer). The fibers had thick varicosities with abundant mitochondria and large perforated synaptic specializations. They contacted exclusively GABAergic cells, corresponding to type 1 periglomerular cells in the glomerular layer, and to granule cells in inframitral layers. This innervation will synchronize the bulbar inhibition and consequently the response of the principal cells to the olfactory input. The effect of the activation of this pathway will produce a disinhibition of the bulbar principal cells. This facilitation might occur at two separate levels: first in the terminal tufts of mitral and tufted cells via inhibition of type 1 periglomerular cells; second at the level of the firing of the principal cells via inhibition of granule cells. The GABAergic projection from the basal forebrain ends selectively on interneurons, specifically on type 1 periglomerular cells and granule cells, and is likely to control the activity of the olfactory bulb via disinhibition of principal cells. Possible similarities of this pathway with the septo-hippocampal loop are discussed.

Abstract
Previous data suggest that cyclic GMP (cGMP) signaling can play key roles in the circuitry of the olfactory bulb (OB). Therefore, the expression of cGMP-selective subunits of the cyclic nucleotide-gated ion channels (CNGs) can be expected in this brain region. In the present study, we demonstrate a widespread expression of the cGMP-selective A3 subunit of the cyclic nucleotide-gated ion channels (CNGA3) in the rat OB. CNGA3 appears in principal cells, including mitral cells and internal, medium and external tufted cells. Moreover, it appears in two populations of interneurons, including a subset of periglomerular cells and a group of deep short-axon cells. In addition to neurons, CNGA3-immunoreactivity is found in the ensheathing glia of the olfactory nerve. Finally, an abundant population of CNGA3-containing cells with fusiform morphology and radial processes is found in the inframitral layers. These cells express doublecortin and have a morphology similar to that of the undifferentiated cells that leave the rostral migratory stream and migrate radially through the layers of the OB. Altogether, our results suggest that CNGA3 can play important and different roles in the OB. Channels composed of this subunit can be involved in the processing of the olfactory information taking place in the bulbar circuitry. Moreover, they can be involved in the function of the ensheathing glia and in the radial migration of immature cells through the bulbar layers.

Abstract
Colorectal cancer is one of the most prevalent cancers in developed countries. However, the genetic factors influencing its appearance remain far from being fully characterized. Recently, a G>A functional transition mapping the 3' untranslated region of the CXCL12 gene (rs1801157) has been found to be under-represented among rectal cancer patients when compared to colon cancer patients from a Swedish series. Here we present the results from an independent analysis of CXCL12 rs1801157 in a larger CRC series of Spanish origin in order to analyse the robustness of this association within a different European population. No significant difference was observed between controls and colon or rectal cancer patients. We were also unable to find a correlation between rs1801157 and different prognostic markers such as metastasis development or disease-free survival time. The epidemiologic data involving CXCL12 rs1801157 in colorectal cancer risk are discussed.

Abstract
Statistical parametric mapping (SPM) has become the standard technique to statistically evaluate differences between functional images. The aim of this paper was to assess the effect of anatomical variability of skull, the reconstruction algorithm and the scattering of photons in the brain on the output of an SPM analysis of brain PET studies. To this end, Monte Carlo simulation was used to generate suitable PET sinograms and bootstrap techniques were employed to increase the reliability of the conclusions. Activity distribution maps were obtained by segmenting thirty nine T1-weighted magnetic resonance images. Foci were placed on the posterior cingulate cortex (PCC) and the superior temporal cortex (STC) and activation factors ranging between -25% and +25% were simulated. Preprocessing of the reconstructed images and statistical analysis were performed using SPM2. Our findings show that intersubject anatomical differences can cause the minimum sample size to increase between 10 and 42% for posterior cingulate Cortex and between 40 and 80% for superior temporal cortex. Ideal scatter correction (ISC) allowed us to diminish the sample size up to 18% and fully 3D reconstruction reduced the minimum sample size between 8 and 33%. Detection sensitivity was higher for hypo-activation than for hyper-activation situations and higher for superior temporal cortex than for posterior cingulate cortex.

Abstract
Many long-term prospective studies have reported on associations of cardiovascular diseases with circulating lipid markers and/or inflammatory markers. Studies have not, however, generally been designed to provide reliable estimates under different circumstances and to correct for within-person variability. The Emerging Risk Factors Collaboration has established a central database on over 1.1 million participants from 104 prospective population-based studies, in which subsets have information on lipid and inflammatory markers, other characteristics, as well as major cardiovascular morbidity and cause-specific mortality. Information on repeat measurements on relevant characteristics has been collected in approximately 340,000 participants to enable estimation of and correction for within-person variability. Re-analysis of individual data will yield up to approximately 69,000 incident fatal or nonfatal first ever major cardiovascular outcomes recorded during about 11.7 million person years at risk. The primary analyses will involve age-specific regression models in people without known baseline cardiovascular disease in relation to fatal or nonfatal first ever coronary heart disease outcomes. This initiative will characterize more precisely and in greater detail than has previously been possible the shape and strength of the age- and sex-specific associations of several lipid and inflammatory markers with incident coronary heart disease outcomes (and, secondarily, with other incident cardiovascular outcomes) under a wide range of circumstances. It will, therefore, help to determine to what extent such associations are independent from possible confounding factors and to what extent such markers (separately and in combination) provide incremental predictive value.

Abstract
Structural modifications occur in the brain of severely depressed patients and they can be reversed by antidepressant treatment. Some of these changes do not occur in the same direction in different regions, such as the medial prefrontal cortex, the hippocampus or the amygdala. Differential structural plasticity also occurs in animal models of depression and it is also prevented by antidepressants. In order to know whether chronic fluoxetine treatment induces differential neuronal structural plasticity in rats, we have analyzed the expression of synaptophysin, a protein considered a marker of synaptic density, and the expression of the polysialylated form of the neural cell adhesion molecule (PSA-NCAM), a molecule involved in neurite and synaptic remodeling. Chronic fluoxetine treatment increases synaptophysin and PSA-NCAM expression in the medial prefrontal cortex and decreases them in the amygdala. The expression of these molecules is also affected in the entorhinal, the visual and the somatosensory cortices.

Abstract
N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA) receptors play a crucial role in the regulation of neuronal development during embryogenesis and they also regulate the rate of neurogenesis and proliferation in the adult dentate gyrus. However, the mechanism by which they influence these processes is not fully understood. NMDA receptors seem to be functional in hippocampal precursor cells and recently generated granule neurons, although there is no anatomical correlate of these physiological observations. We have analyzed the expression of the NMDA receptor subunits NR1 and NR2B in precursor cells and recently generated granule neurons of the adult rat dentate gyrus, using 5'bromodeoxyuridine, green fluorescent protein-retrovirus and immunohistochemistry. Our results indicate that NR1 and NR2B are expressed in some proliferating cells of the adult subgranular zone. These receptors are absent from transiently amplifying progenitors (type 2-3 cells) but they are found in glial fibrillar acidic protein expressing cells in the subgranular zone, suggesting its presence in bipotential (type-1) precursor cells. NR1 and NR2B are rarely found in granule cells younger than 60 h. By contrast, many granule cells generated 14 days before killing express both NMDA receptor subunits. These results demonstrate that adult hippocampal neurogenesis may be regulated by NMDA receptors present in precursor cells and in differentiating granule neurons, although these receptors are probably not located on synapses. However, an indirect effect through NMDA receptors located in other cell types should not be excluded.

Abstract
There is a constant increase in the number of species suffering marked reductions in population size. This reduction in size and the lack of genetic flow may lead to a decrease in genetic variability and to matings between close relatives (i.e. inbreeding) with an ensuing reduction in fitness. It is thus important to understand the mechanism underlying the deleterious effects of inbreeding and to develop reproductive biotechnologies that will allow the reduction of inbreeding depression by facilitating gene exchange between populations. The study of three endangered species of gazelles, Cuvier's gazelle (Gazella cuvieri), Mohor gazelle (Gazella dama mhorr) and dorcas gazelle (Gazella dorcas neglecta) has revealed that inbreeding negatively affects several semen parameters (motility, sperm morphology, acrosome integrity). Semen cryopreservation has been achieved in the three species but success varies depending on the diluent employed and the level of inbreeding. Artificial insemination of Mohor gazelles have led to the birth of the first gazelle born using frozen-thawed semen but improvements are needed before this technology can be applied on a routine basis for the genetic management of the populations. Collection of oocytes after ovarian stimulation, followed by in vitro maturation, fertilization and culture has met with some initial success in the Mohor gazelle. These, together with other reproductive technologies, will offer an invaluable help in preserving the maximum of genetic diversity of these and related endangered ungulate species.

Abstract
4552 Background: The availability of reliable prognostic factors for relapse in stage I seminoma would allow a better patient stratification for individually tailored therapies. We performed a pooled analysis of patients included in two consecutive risk-adapted protocols. Methods: Between 1994 and 2004, 588 cases were prospectively registered. Median patient age was 33 years, median tumor size was 45 mm, serum BHCG levels were elevated preoperatively in 14.6%, and rete testis invasion was present in 26.9%. Three hundred and four patients (51.7%) with risk factors received two courses of adjuvant carboplatin, whereas 284 (48.3%) without these criteria were managed by surveillance. After a median follow-up of 48 months (range, 12–144), 43 relapses (7.3%) have occurred. Five-year disease-free survival was 92.3%. Univariate (log rank) and multivariate (Cox regression) analyses of prognostic factors for relapse were performed. Results: Relapses were less frequent after carboplatin treatment (3% vs 12%, p < 0.0001). Statistically significant, independent predictors of relapse were: 1) rete testis invasion and age (<30 years) in the whole series; 2) rete testis invasion for patients treated with adjuvant chemotherapy; and 3) tumor invasion beyond the albuginea and microvessel neoplastic invasion (defining 1997 AJCC pT2–4 staging) for patients managed by surveillance. In contrast, tumor size, histologic subtype (anaplastic), and serum preoperative BHCG levels were not associated with prognosis. Conclusions: Invasion of the rete testis and age (<30 years) represent high-risk factors for patients with clinical stage I testis seminoma, independently of the treatment selected. These two features, in combination with pathologic T2–4 staging, could improve patient selection for risk-adapted therapies. No significant financial relationships to disclose.
