Abstract
The phase 2 CLL2-BAAG trial tested the measurable residual disease (MRD)-guided triple combination of acalabrutinib, venetoclax and obinutuzumab after an optional bendamustine debulking in 45 patients with relapsed/refractory CLL (one patient was excluded from the analysis due to a violation of exclusion criteria). MRD was measured by flow cytometry (FCM, undetectable MRD <10-4) in peripheral blood (PB) and circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) by digital droplet PCR (ddPCR) of variable-diversity-joining (VDJ) rearrangements and CLL-related mutations in plasma. MRD recurrence was defined as detectable ctDNA and/or MRD ≥10-4 after achieving both uMRD/undetectable ctDNA. The median number of previous treatments was 1 (range 1-4), 18 patients (40%) had received a BTK inhibitor (BTKi) and/or venetoclax prior to inclusion, 14/44 (31.8%) had TP53 aberrations, 34 (75.6%) had unmutated IGHV. With a median observation time of 36.3 months and all patients off treatment for a median of 21.9 months, uMRD <10-4 in PB was achieved in 42/45 patients (93.3%) at any time point, including 17/18 (94.4%) previously exposed to venetoclax/BTKi and 13/14 (92.9%) with TP53 aberrations. The estimated three-year progression-free and overall survival rates were 85.0% and 93.8%. Overall 585 paired FCM/ctDNA samples were analyzed and 18 MRD recurrences (5 with and 13 without clinical progression) occurred after the end of treatment. Twelve were first detected by ctDNA, three by FCM and three synchronously. Patients with earlier detection by ctDNA appeared to have genetically higher risk disease. In conclusion, time-limited MRD-guided acalabrutinib, venetoclax and obinutuzumab achieved deep remissions in almost all patients with relapsed/refractory CLL. The addition of ctDNA-based analyses to FCM MRD assessment seems to improve early detection of relapses. ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT03787264.

Abstract
We evaluated the prognostic value of the Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia International Prognostic Index (CLL-IPI) using a pooled dataset of CLL-patients treated first-line with targeted drugs (N=991) or chemoimmunotherapy (N=1,256). With a median observation time of 40.5 months, the 3-year progression-free survival (PFS)-rates for targeted drug-treated patients varied by CLL-IPI risk group: 96.5% (low), 87.6% (intermediate), 82.4% (high), and 78.7% (very high). Differences between consecutive CLL-IPI risk groups were observed for intermediate vs. low (HR=3.296, 95%-CI 1.576-6.894, p=0.002), for high vs. intermediate (HR=1.365, 95%-CI 1.003-1.858, p=0.048), but not for very high vs. high. CLL-IPI factors β2-microglobulin, IGHV mutational status, and TP53 status each retained prognostic value for PFS. The 3-year overall survival (OS)-rates by CLL-IPI risk group were 100%, 96%, 93.9%, and 89.4% with no differences between consecutive risk groups. Age, Binet stage, β2-microglobulin, and TP53 status each retained prognostic value for OS. In chemoimmunotherapy patients (median observation time 66.9 months), 3-year PFS-rates for CLL-IPI risk groups were 78.1%, 51.4%, 40.1%, and 16.5%. Corresponding 3-year OS-rates were 97.4%, 93.1%, 81.8%, and 57.3%. In a matched-pair analysis, PFS-differences in targeted therapies (N=812) versus chemoimmunotherapy (N=812) across all risk groups, and OS-differences in all but low-risk patients were demonstrated. The CLL-IPI maintains its prognostic value in predicting PFS outcomes with targeted drugs. With the caveat of a short observation time its impact in predicting survival appears diminished. Targeted therapies showed enhanced outcomes over chemoimmunotherapy, highlighting their effectiveness across various risk groups. Our findings support ongoing assessment of prognostic tools in CLL treatment evolution.

Abstract
Sweet syndrome, also known as acute febrile neutrophilic dermatosis, is a rare disorder typically characterized by the clinical triad including a sudden onset of fever, painful skin lesions, and neutrophilia. The histopathological findings are a dense neutrophilic infiltrate and oedema of the dermis and epidermis without evidence of a vasculitis. Besides treatment of the underlying cause, sweet syndrome is typically treated with high-dose corticosteroids leading to a relapse-free response in 70% of patients. However, if left unrecognized or untreated, the condition may lead to serious complications. Here, we report on the case of a 38-year-old patient in whom, under the assumption of the presence of necrotizing fasciitis, exarticulation of the right arm was performed. In the absence of pathogen detection and insufficient response to anti-infective therapies, the diagnosis of a sweet syndrome was assumed and, later, confirmed by an excellent response to high-dose administration of systematic glucocorticoids. The case emphasizes the need to be aware of this rare syndrome, which can be easily misdiagnosed due to its close resemblance to infection and stresses the need of further research to define distinct diagnostic tools.

Abstract
Vaccination is one of the most important control tools to reduce Salmonella in poultry production. In order for a live vaccine to be licensed for field use it should be provided with the detection methods to differentiate it from field strains. This paper aims to describe the validation of an alternative method for the differentiation of the Salmonella 441/014 vaccine strain from field strains, using a chromogenic Media, ASAP from bioMérieux. The ASAP-based differentiation method was compared with already authorized methods, namely the Anicon SE Kylt PCR DIVA 1 assay and Ceva S-Check Salmonella differentiation kit, following the ISO 16140-6:2019 validation method guidelines. A Generalised Linear Model was fitted to the data to determine the inclusivity and exclusivity of differentiation methods (PCR Kylt vs. S-Check vs. ASAPTM). Statistical differences were based on a P-value level of < 0.05 (SPSS Inc., Chicago, IL). In this study, we show that the ASAP media was able to differentiate Salmonella Enteritidis vaccine strains from field strains, obtaining 100% agreement between the three differentiation assays. This differentiation approach is quicker, easier to deploy and cheaper as compared to alternative methods.

Abstract
Although several promising approaches for the treatment of relapsed/refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (rrDLBCL) have been approved recently, it remains unclear which patients will ultimately achieve long-term responses. Circulating tumor (ct)DNA sequencing has emerged as a valuable tool to assess minimal residual disease (MRD). Correlations between MRD and outcomes have been shown in previously untreated DLBCL, but data on the repeated assessment of MRD in the dynamic course of rrDLBCL is limited. Here, we present an approach leveraging cost- and time-sensitivity of digital droplet (dd)PCR to repeatedly assess MRD in rrDLBCL and present proof-of-principle for its ability to predict outcomes.

Abstract
We show, for the first time, radio measurements of the depth of shower maximum (X_{max}) of air showers induced by cosmic rays that are compared to measurements of the established fluorescence method at the same location. Using measurements at the Pierre Auger Observatory we show full compatibility between our radio and the previously published fluorescence dataset, and between a subset of air showers observed simultaneously with both radio and fluorescence techniques, a measurement setup unique to the Pierre Auger Observatory. Furthermore, we show radio X_{max} resolution as a function of energy and demonstrate the ability to make competitive high-resolution X_{max} measurements with even a sparse radio array. With this, we show that the radio technique is capable of cosmic-ray mass composition studies, both at Auger and at other experiments.

Abstract
Too many articles are still rejected by scientific medical journals due to lack of preparation of the manuscript and of knowledge of the modern editorial rules that govern scientific medical writing. Therefore, the editorial board of the European Annals of Otorhinolaryngology Heads & Neck Diseases summarized studies published by its members since 2020 in the columns of the scientific journal of the French Society of Otorhinolaryngology and the International Francophone Society of Otorhinolaryngology and data from the PubMed indexed literature dedicated to scientific medical writing in otolaryngology in the 21st century. The authors hope that this review, in the form of a list of "Dos and Don'ts", will provide authors with a practical guide facilitating publication of rigorous, reproducible and transparent scientific studies, in accordance with the movement toward better science that society as a whole has been fighting for since the beginning of this century.

Abstract
AIMS Validation of the PVSQ self-report questionnaire (diagnosis) and the DHI-PC caregiver report questionnaire (Dizziness Handicap Inventory) aims to improve the management of pediatric vertigo, which is often under-diagnosed. MATERIALS AND METHODS The PVSQ and DHI-PC questionnaires were translated according to the Forward-Backward method and presented to a group of patients consulting for dizziness in a referral center and to a control group. A retest was performed at 2weeks for both questionnaires. Statistical validation consisted in calculating discriminatory capacity, ROC curve, reproducibility and internal consistency. The main study objective was the translation and validation of the PVSQ and DHI-PC questionnaires in French. The secondary objectives were to compare results in two subgroups according to the vestibular or non-vestibular etiology of dizziness and to assess the correlation between the two questionnaires. RESULTS In total, 112 children, in two comparable groups (53 cases and 59 controls), were included. Mean PVSQ score was 14.62 for cases and 6.55 for controls (P<0.001). Reproducibility was moderate, and internal consistency and construct validity were satisfactory. A cut-off of 11 corresponded to maximum Younden index. Mean DHI-PC score was 41.6 (cases only). Reproducibility was moderate, and internal consistency and construct validity were satisfactory. CONCLUSION The validation of the PVSQ and DHI-PC questionnaires offers two new tools in the management of dizziness, for both screening and follow-up.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Animal models of skin disease are used to evaluate therapeutics to alleviate disease. One common clinical dermatological complaint is pruritus (itch), but there is a lack of standardization in the characterization of pre-clinical models and scratching behavior, a key itch endpoint, is often neglected. One such model is the widely used imiquimod (IMQ) mouse model of psoriasis. However, it lacks characterized behavioral attributes like scratching, nor has widely expanded to other species like rats. Given these important attributes, this study was designed to broaden the characterization beyond the expected IMQ-induced psoriasis-like skin inflammatory skin changes and to validate the role of a potential therapeutic agent for pruritus in our genetic rat model. The study included female Wistar rats and genetically modified knockin (humanized proteinase-activated receptor 2 (F2RL1) female rats, with the widely used C57BL/6 J mice as a methodology control for typical IMQ dosing. RESULTS We demonstrate that the IMQ model can be reproduced in rats, including their genetically modified derivatives, and how scratching can be used as a key behavioral endpoint. We systemically delivered an anti-PAR2 antibody (P24E1102) which reversed scratching bouts-validating this behavioral methodology and have shown its feasibility and value in identifying effective antipruritic drugs.

Abstract
We present the first comprehensive tests of the universality of the light leptons in the angular distributions of semileptonic B^{0}-meson decays to charged spin-1 charmed mesons. We measure five angular-asymmetry observables as functions of the decay recoil that are sensitive to lepton-universality-violating contributions. We use events where one neutral B is fully reconstructed in ϒ(4S)→BB[over ¯] decays in data corresponding to 189 fb^{-1} integrated luminosity from electron-positron collisions collected with the Belle II detector. We find no significant deviation from the standard model expectations.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Allergic fungal rhinosinusitis (AFRS) and eosinophilic mucin chronic rhinosinusitis (EMRS) are two forms of chronic sinusitis distinguished by the presence (AFRS) or absence (EMRS) of fungal elements in sinus mucin. Detection of the fungal elements, however, is complex and it is difficult to say whether EMRS is in fact an entity distinct from AFRS. The aim of the present study, based on a retrospective series of AFRS and EMRS, was to identify the specific clinical and radiological elements distinguishing between the two. MATERIALS AND METHODS A 2-center retrospective observational study following STROBE guidelines included patients managed for AFRS or EMRS between 2009 and 2022. Clinical, mycological, pathologic and radiological data were collected. Type of treatment and disease progression were also analyzed. Intergroup comparison used Student's test for mean values of quantitative variables, with calculation of P-values, and Pearson's Chi2 test or Fisher's exact test for categoric variables, with calculation of relative risk and 95% confidence intervals. RESULTS The AFRS group comprised 41 patients and the EMRS group 34. Demographic data were comparable between groups. EMRS showed a higher rate of asthma (79.4 vs. 31.4%; P<0.001), more severe nasal symptomatology (rhinorrhea, P=0.01; nasal obstruction, P=0.001), and more frequent bilateral involvement (85.3 vs. 58.5%; P=0.021). AFRS showed more frequent complications (19 vs. 0%; P=0.006). Radiologically, mucin accumulation was greater in AFRS, filling the sinus in 84.2% of cases, versus 26.3% (P<0.001), with more frequent sinus wall erosion (19 vs. 5.8%; P=0.073). The recurrence rate was higher in EMRS: 38.2 vs.21.9% (P=0.087). CONCLUSION The present retrospective study found a difference in clinical and radiological presentation between AFRS and EMRS, with EMRS more resembling the presentation of severe nasal polyposis.

Abstract
We measure the lifetime of the D_{s}^{+} meson using a data sample of 207 fb^{-1} collected by the Belle II experiment running at the SuperKEKB asymmetric-energy e^{+}e^{-} collider. The lifetime is determined by fitting the decay-time distribution of a sample of 116×10^{3} D_{s}^{+}→ϕπ^{+} decays. Our result is τ_{D_{s}^{+}}=(499.5±1.7±0.9) fs, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second is systematic. This result is significantly more precise than previous measurements.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW This research paper aims to provide an overview of evidence-based sequencing of therapies in relapsed/refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) in the era of targeted drugs. RECENT FINDINGS In the absence of data from randomized clinical trials comparing novel agents head-to-head, growing evidence suggests that patients with late relapse (> 2 years) after fixed-duration therapies benefit from identical retreatment, whereas a class switch is favorable in those with short-lived remissions or progressive disease on continuous drug intake. Treatment of patients previously exposed to both covalent inhibitors of BTK and BCL2 remains an unmet medical need. Novel drugs, in particular noncovalent BTKI, show promising efficacy in this difficult-to-treat subgroup in early clinical trials. The optimal sequencing of therapies in CLL requires consideration of individual patient factors and disease characteristics. Double-refractory disease continuous to pose a clinical challenge with a focus on participation in clinical trials whenever possible.

Abstract
We report the first search for a nonstandard-model resonance decaying into τ pairs in e^{+}e^{-}→μ^{+}μ^{-}τ^{+}τ^{-} events in the 3.6-10 GeV/c^{2} mass range. We use a 62.8 fb^{-1} sample of e^{+}e^{-} collisions collected at a center-of-mass energy of 10.58 GeV by the Belle II experiment at the SuperKEKB collider. The analysis probes three different models predicting a spin-1 particle coupling only to the heavier lepton families, a Higgs-like spin-0 particle that couples preferentially to charged leptons (leptophilic scalar), and an axionlike particle, respectively. We observe no evidence for a signal and set exclusion limits at 90% confidence level on the product of cross section and branching fraction into τ pairs, ranging from 0.7 to 24 fb, and on the couplings of these processes. We obtain world-leading constraints on the couplings for the leptophilic scalar model for masses above 6.5 GeV/c^{2} and for the axionlike particle model over the entire mass range.

Abstract
We report a measurement of the CP-violating parameters C and S in B^{0}→K_{S}^{0}π^{0} decays at Belle II using a sample of 387×10^{6} BB[over ¯] events recorded in e^{+}e^{-} collisions at a center-of-mass energy corresponding to the ϒ(4S) resonance. These parameters are determined by fitting the proper decay-time distribution of a sample of 415 signal events. We obtain C=-0.04_{-0.15}^{+0.14}±0.05 and S=0.75_{-0.23}^{+0.20}±0.04, where the first uncertainties are statistical and the second are systematic.

Abstract
A relevant proportion of patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) presenting with hyperleukocytosis are admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU). However, data on characteristics and outcomes of these patients are limited. We therefore conducted a single-center retrospective analysis including 69 consecutive AML patients with a white blood cell (WBC) count > 100.000/µl who had been treated on the ICU between 2011 and 2020. The median age was 63 years (range: 14-87 years). Males accounted for the majority of cases (n = 43; 62.3%). Mechanical ventilation (MV), renal replacement therapy and the use of vasopressors were necessary in 34.8%, 8.7% and 40.6% of patients, respectively. Cardiopulmonary resuscitation was performed in 15.9% of patients. The ICU, hospital, 90-day and 1-year survival rates were 53.6%, 43.5%, 42% and 30.4%, respectively. Age (p = 0.002), SOFA score (p < 0.001) and MV (p < 0.001) were independently associated with a reduced survival probability. A score comprising the factors age > 70 years, lactate dehydrogenase level > 1500 U/l, WBC count > 150.000/µl, elevated lactate level and SOFA score > 7 allowed the discrimination of 3 distinct risk groups (low-risk: 0-1 points, intermediate-risk: 2 points, high-risk: 3-5 points) with regard to survival (p < 0.0001). Taken together, the present analysis indicates that more than two-thirds of AML patients with hyperleukocytosis treated on the ICU die within 1 year. However, outcomes vary considerably depending on the presence of risk factors.

Abstract
We present the first measurement of the ratio of branching fractions of inclusive semileptonic B-meson decays, R(X_{e/μ})=B(B→Xeν)/B(B→Xμν), a precision test of electron-muon universality, using data corresponding to 189 fb^{-1} from electron-positron collisions collected with the Belle II detector. In events where the partner B meson is fully reconstructed, we use fits to the lepton momentum spectra above 1.3 GeV/c to obtain R(X_{e/μ})=1.007±0.009(stat)±0.019(syst), which is the most precise lepton-universality test of its kind and agrees with the standard-model expectation.

Abstract
Complex karyotypes have been associated with inferior outcomes in chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) treated with chemoimmunotherapy (CIT), whereas their prognostic impact in the context of venetoclax-based treatments is still debated. In this prospective analysis on karyotype complexity in CLL, we evaluated the impact of complex (≥3 chromosomal aberrations [CAs], CKTs) and highly complex karyotypes (≥5 CAs; hCKTs) as well as specific aberrations in previously untreated patients without TP53 aberrations undergoing either CIT or time-limited venetoclax-based therapies in the phase 3 GAIA/CLL13 trial. Karyotype analyses were available for 895 of 926 patients (96.7%), of whom 153 (17%) had a CKT and 43 (5%) hCKT. In the CIT arm, CKT was associated with shorter progression-free survival (PFS) (hazard ratio [HR] 2.58; 95% confidence interval [95% CI], 1.54-4.32; P < .001) and overall survival (HR, 3.25; 95% CI, 1.03-10.26; P = .044). In the pooled venetoclax arms, a multivariable analysis identified hCKTs (HR, 1.96; 95% CI, 1.03-3.72; P = .041), but not CKTs, as independent adverse prognosticators for PFS. The presence of translocations (unbalanced and/or balanced) was also independently associated with shorter PFSs in the venetoclax arms. CIT led to the acquisition of additional CAs (mean CAs, 2.0-3.4; from baseline to CLL progression), whereas karyotype complexity remained stable after venetoclax-based treatments (2.0, both time points). This analysis establishes highly complex karyotypes and translocations as adverse prognostic factors in the context of venetoclax-based combination treatments. The findings of this study support the incorporation of karyotyping into the standard diagnostic workup of CLL, because it identifies patients at high risk of poor treatment outcomes and thereby improves prognostication. This trial was registered at www.clinicaltrials.gov as #NCT02950051.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Survey of paediatric vestibular activity in all 30 French paediatric cochlear implant (CI) centres to identify challenges and areas of improvement. METHOD All 30 French CI centres answered a 29-question questionnaire about their paediatric vestibular activity, equipment, and management in different clinical situations (e.g. vestibular assessment before a cochlear implantation or in cases of vertigo) at different ages. RESULTS Eighteen CI centres had dedicated paediatric vestibular clinics and 12 did not. Minimum age required for vestibular testing was 3 years in eight centres. Four vestibular tests stood out: caloric tests, video Head Impulse Test (vHIT), rotating chair, vestibular evoked myogenic potentials (VEMP). Depending on the centre's experience, the use of vestibular tests in clinical routine was very heterogeneous. Expert centres mostly used vHIT and cervical VEMP (in bone conduction) for assessments before the first cochlear implantation in 1-year-old children. Dizziness assessment in 4-year children was based on the use of vHIT, cervical VEMP on bone conduction, rotatory test, and caloric test. Ocular VEMP was rarely used. CONCLUSIONS Paediatric vestibular assessment requires specific expertise compared to adults. Due to a lack of specialised human resources, some centres may be unable to follow French paediatric CI guidelines. International recommendations could help standardise paediatric vestibular management and public health policies should be discussed to improve training and access for children.

Abstract
The human T cell leukemia virus type 1 (HTLV-1) is a pathogenic retrovirus that persists as a provirus in the genome of infected cells and can lead to adult T cell leukemia (ATL). Worldwide, more than 10 million people are infected and approximately 5% of these individuals will develop ATL, a highly aggressive cancer that is currently incurable. In the last years, genome editing tools have emerged as promising antiviral agents. In this proof-of-concept study, we use substrate-linked directed evolution (SLiDE) to engineer Cre-derived site-specific recombinases to excise the HTLV-1 proviral genome from infected cells. We identified a conserved loxP-like sequence (loxHTLV) present in the long terminal repeats of the majority of virus isolates. After 181 cycles of SLiDE, we isolated a designer-recombinase (designated RecHTLV), which efficiently recombines the loxHTLV sequence in bacteria and human cells with high specificity. Expression of RecHTLV in human Jurkat T cells resulted in antiviral activity when challenged with an HTLV-1 infection. Moreover, expression of RecHTLV in chronically infected SP cells led to the excision of HTLV-1 proviral DNA. Our data suggest that recombinase-mediated excision of the HTLV-1 provirus represents a promising approach to reduce proviral load in HTLV-1-infected individuals, potentially preventing the development of HTLV-1-associated diseases.

Abstract
We present a search for the lepton flavor violating decays B^{+}→K^{+}τ^{±}ℓ^{∓}, with ℓ=(e,μ), using the full data sample of 772×10^{6} BB[over ¯] pairs recorded by the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy e^{+}e^{-} collider. We use events in which one B meson is fully reconstructed in a hadronic decay mode. We find no evidence for B^{±}→K^{±}τℓ decays and set upper limits on their branching fractions at the 90% confidence level in the (1-3)×10^{-5} range. The obtained limits are the world's best results.

Abstract
Gelatin-based hemostats have been used in various surgical fields and showed advantageous effects on central aspects of wound healing when compared to cellulose-based hemostats. Nevertheless, the influence of gelatin-based hemostats on wound healing has not been fully explored yet. Hemostats were applied to fibroblast cell cultures for 5, 30, 60 min, 24 h, 7 and 14 days and measurements were taken at 3, 6, 12, 24 h and 7 or 14 days, respectively. Cell proliferation was quantified after different exposure times and a contraction assay was conducted to measure the extent of the extracellular matrix over time. We further assessed quantitative levels of vascular endothelial growth factor and basic fibroblast growth factor using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Fibroblast counts decreased significantly at 7 and 14 days independent of the application duration (p < 0.001 for 5 min application). The gelatin-based hemostat did not have a negative impact on cell matrix contraction. After application of gelatin-based hemostat, the basic fibroblast growth factor did not change; yet, the vascular endothelial growth factor significantly increased after a prolonged 24 h application time when compared to controls or to a 6 h exposure (p < 0.05). Gelatin-based hemostats did not impair contraction of the extracellular matrix or growth factor production (vascular endothelial growth factor and basic fibroblast growth factor), while cell proliferation diminished at late time points. In conclusion, the gelatin-based material seems to be compatible with central aspects of wound healing. For further clinical assessment, future animal and human studies are necessary.

Abstract
The L_{μ}-L_{τ} extension of the standard model predicts the existence of a lepton-flavor-universality-violating Z^{'} boson that couples only to the heavier lepton families. We search for such a Z^{'} through its invisible decay in the process e^{+}e^{-}→μ^{+}μ^{-}Z^{'}. We use a sample of electron-positron collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 10.58 GeV collected by the Belle II experiment in 2019-2020, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 79.7 fb^{-1}. We find no excess over the expected standard-model background. We set 90%-confidence-level upper limits on the cross section for this process as well as on the coupling of the model, which ranges from 3×10^{-3} at low Z^{'} masses to 1 at Z^{'} masses of 8 GeV/c^{2}.

Abstract
Graphite has been intensively studied, yet its electron spins dynamics remains an unresolved problem even 70 years after the first experiments. The central quantities, the longitudinal (T1) and transverse (T2) relaxation times were postulated to be equal, mirroring standard metals, but T1 has never been measured for graphite. Here, based on a detailed band structure calculation including spin-orbit coupling, we predict an unexpected behavior of the relaxation times. We find, based on saturation ESR measurements, that T1 is markedly different from T2. Spins injected with perpendicular polarization with respect to the graphene plane have an extraordinarily long lifetime of 100 ns at room temperature. This is ten times more than in the best graphene samples. The spin diffusion length across graphite planes is thus expected to be ultralong, on the scale of ~ 70 μm, suggesting that thin films of graphite - or multilayer AB graphene stacks - can be excellent platforms for spintronics applications compatible with 2D van der Waals technologies. Finally, we provide a qualitative account of the observed spin relaxation based on the anisotropic spin admixture of the Bloch states in graphite obtained from density functional theory calculations.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Randomized trials of venetoclax plus anti-CD20 antibodies as first-line treatment in fit patients (i.e., those with a low burden of coexisting conditions) with advanced chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) have been lacking. METHODS In a phase 3, open-label trial, we randomly assigned, in a 1:1:1:1 ratio, fit patients with CLL who did not have TP53 aberrations to receive six cycles of chemoimmunotherapy (fludarabine-cyclophosphamide-rituximab or bendamustine-rituximab) or 12 cycles of venetoclax-rituximab, venetoclax-obinutuzumab, or venetoclax-obinutuzumab-ibrutinib. Ibrutinib was discontinued after two consecutive measurements of undetectable minimal residual disease or could be extended. The primary end points were undetectable minimal residual disease (sensitivity, <10-4 [i.e., <1 CLL cell in 10,000 leukocytes]) as assessed by flow cytometry in peripheral blood at month 15 and progression-free survival. RESULTS A total of 926 patients were assigned to one of the four treatment regimens (229 to chemoimmunotherapy, 237 to venetoclax-rituximab, 229 to venetoclax-obinutuzumab, and 231 to venetoclax-obinutuzumab-ibrutinib). At month 15, the percentage of patients with undetectable minimal residual disease was significantly higher in the venetoclax-obinutuzumab group (86.5%; 97.5% confidence interval [CI], 80.6 to 91.1) and the venetoclax-obinutuzumab-ibrutinib group (92.2%; 97.5% CI, 87.3 to 95.7) than in the chemoimmunotherapy group (52.0%; 97.5% CI, 44.4 to 59.5; P<0.001 for both comparisons), but it was not significantly higher in the venetoclax-rituximab group (57.0%; 97.5% CI, 49.5 to 64.2; P = 0.32). Three-year progression-free survival was 90.5% in the venetoclax-obinutuzumab-ibrutinib group and 75.5% in the chemoimmunotherapy group (hazard ratio for disease progression or death, 0.32; 97.5% CI, 0.19 to 0.54; P<0.001). Progression-free survival at 3 years was also higher with venetoclax-obinutuzumab (87.7%; hazard ratio for disease progression or death, 0.42; 97.5% CI, 0.26 to 0.68; P<0.001), but not with venetoclax-rituximab (80.8%; hazard ratio, 0.79; 97.5% CI, 0.53 to 1.18; P = 0.18). Grade 3 and grade 4 infections were more common with chemoimmunotherapy (18.5%) and venetoclax-obinutuzumab-ibrutinib (21.2%) than with venetoclax-rituximab (10.5%) or venetoclax-obinutuzumab (13.2%). CONCLUSIONS Venetoclax-obinutuzumab with or without ibrutinib was superior to chemoimmunotherapy as first-line treatment in fit patients with CLL.

Abstract
We search for lepton-flavor-violating τ^{-}→e^{-}α and τ^{-}→μ^{-}α decays, where α is an invisible spin-0 boson. The search uses electron-positron collisions at 10.58 GeV center-of-mass energy with an integrated luminosity of 62.8 fb^{-1}, produced by the SuperKEKB collider and collected with the Belle II detector. We search for an excess in the lepton-energy spectrum of the known τ^{-}→e^{-}ν[over ¯]_{e}ν_{τ} and τ^{-}→μ^{-}ν[over ¯]_{μ}ν_{τ} decays. We report 95% confidence-level upper limits on the branching-fraction ratio B(τ^{-}→e^{-}α)/B(τ^{-}→e^{-}ν[over ¯]_{e}ν_{τ}) in the range (1.1-9.7)×10^{-3} and on B(τ^{-}→μ^{-}α)/B(τ^{-}→μ^{-}ν[over ¯]_{μ}ν_{τ}) in the range (0.7-12.2)×10^{-3} for α masses between 0 and 1.6 GeV/c^{2}. These results provide the most stringent bounds on invisible boson production from τ decays.

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

Abstract
An absolute measurement of the Λ_{c}^{+} lifetime is reported using Λ_{c}^{+}→pK^{-}π^{+} decays in events reconstructed from data collected by the Belle II experiment at the SuperKEKB asymmetric-energy electron-positron collider. The total integrated luminosity of the data sample, which was collected at center-of-mass energies at or near the ϒ(4S) resonance, is 207.2 fb^{-1}. The result, τ(Λ_{c}^{+})=203.20±0.89±0.77 fs, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second systematic, is the most precise measurement to date and is consistent with previous determinations.

Abstract
The dark photon A^{'} and the dark Higgs boson h^{'} are hypothetical particles predicted in many dark sector models. We search for the simultaneous production of A^{'} and h^{'} in the dark Higgsstrahlung process e^{+}e^{-}→A^{'}h^{'} with A^{'}→μ^{+}μ^{-} and h^{'} invisible in electron-positron collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 10.58 GeV in data collected by the Belle II experiment in 2019. With an integrated luminosity of 8.34 fb^{-1}, we observe no evidence for signal. We obtain exclusion limits at 90% Bayesian credibility in the range of 1.7-5.0 fb on the cross section and in the range of 1.7×10^{-8}-200×10^{-8} on the effective coupling ϵ^{2}×α_{D} for the A^{'} mass in the range of 4.0 GeV/c^{2}<M_{A^{'}}<9.7 GeV/c^{2} and for the h^{'} mass M_{h^{'}}<M_{A^{'}}, where ϵ is the mixing strength between the standard model and the dark photon and α_{D} is the coupling of the dark photon to the dark Higgs boson. Our limits are the first in this mass range.

Abstract
High-dose chemotherapy and autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) can be associated with adverse events necessitating treatment on the intensive care unit (ICU). Data focusing on patients admitted to the ICU during hospitalization for high-dose chemotherapy and ASCT are scarce. We thus conducted a single-center retrospective analysis comprising 79 individuals who had high-dose chemotherapy and ASCT between 2014 and 2020 and were admitted to the ICU between the initiation of conditioning therapy and day 30 after ASCT. The median age was 57 years (range: 20-82 years); 38% of patients were female. B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (34%) and plasma cell disorders (28%) were the most common indications for high-dose chemotherapy and ASCT. Sepsis represented the major cause for ICU admission (68%). Twenty-nine percent of patients required mechanical ventilation (MV), 5% had renal replacement therapy, and 44% needed vasopressors. The ICU, hospital, 90-day, and 1-year survival rates were 77.2%, 77.2%, 72.2%, and 60.3%, respectively. Stable disease or disease progression prior to the initiation of high-dose chemotherapy (p = 0.0028) and MV (p < 0.0001) were associated with an impaired survival. A total of 36 patients died during observation. The most frequent causes of death were the underlying malignancy (44%) and sepsis (39%). Taken together, the present analysis indicates a favorable overall outcome for patients admitted to the ICU during hospitalization for high-dose chemotherapy and ASCT. Thus, this patient group should not be denied admission and treatment on the ICU.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Oxidized regenerated cellulose-based (ORC - TABOTAMP), oxidized non-regenerated cellulose-based (ONRC - RESORBA CELL), and gelatin-based (GELA - GELITA TUFT-IT) hemostats are commonly used in surgery. However, their impact on the wound healing process remains largely unexplored. We here assess time-dependent effects of exposure to these hemostats on fibroblast-related wound healing processes. MATERIAL AND METHODS Hemostats were applied to fibroblast cell cultures for 5-10 (short-), 30 and 60 min (intermediate-) and 24 h (long-term). Representative images of the hemostat degradation process were obtained, and the pH value was measured. Cell viability, apoptosis and migration were analyzed after the above exposure times at 3, 6 and 24 h follow-up. Protein levels for tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α) and transforming-growth factor β (TGF-β) were assessed. RESULTS ORC and ONRC reduced pH values during degradation, while GELA proved to be pH-neutral. Hemostat structural integrity was prolonged for GELA (vs. ORC and ONRC). TGF-β and TNF-α levels were reduced for ORC and ONRC (vs. GELA and control) (p < 0.05). Further, exposure of ORC and ONRC for longer than 5-10 min reduced cell viability vs. GELA and control at 3 h post-exposure (p < 0.05). Similarly, cell migration was impaired with ORC and ONRC exposure longer than 60 min at 24 h follow-up (p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS Short-term exposure to ORC and ONRC impairs relevant wound healing-related processes in fibroblasts, and alters protein levels of key mediating cytokines. GELA does not show similar effects. We conclude that GELA may be preferred over ORC and ONRC over short-, intermediate- and long-term exposures. Future validation of the clinical relevance is warranted.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate reviewing and editorial decision for articles submitted to the European Annals of Otorhinolaryngology Head & Neck Diseases. MATERIALS AND METHODS A retrospective analysis was made of reviewers' comments on 1,133 scientific articles (700 original articles, 96 literature reviews, and 337 case reports), originating from 69 countries, consecutively submitted on-line between January 1st, 2020 and December 31st, 2021. The main objective was to document the acceptance rate and decision time. Accessory objectives were to synthesize the main comments and to screen for correlations between acceptance and the main characteristics of first authors, articles and reviewers' comments. RESULTS In total, 4.1% of submitted articles were accepted. Median decision time differed significantly (P<0.0001), at 1 month in case of refusal and 4 months in case of acceptance. Reviewers mentioned failure to adhere to the journal's authors' guide, to use the appropriate EQUATOR guidelines and to adopt the recommended P<0.005 significance threshold in 94.8%, 54.2%, and 39.9% of cases, respectively. On multivariate analysis, 3 variables significantly impacted acceptance, which increased from 1.3% to 44.6% (P<0.0001) when an appropriate EQUATOR guideline was used and from 0.3% to 57.4% (P<0.0001) when the significance threshold was set at P<0.005, and decreased from 10.5% to 1.1% (P=0.0001) when the article did not originate from a French-speaking country (member of the Francophonie organization). CONCLUSION Adhesion to modern scientific medical writing rules increased acceptance rates for articles in the European Annals of Otorhinolaryngology Head & Neck Diseases. Teaching modern scientific medical writing needs to be enhanced in otorhinolaryngology.

Abstract
Patients aged 80 years and older make up a fifth of patients with CLL but are underrepresented in clinical trials. We analyzed the outcomes of these patients treated with targeted agents in the front-line setting in six trials of the German CLL Study Group. Targeted agents included venetoclax, ibrutinib, and idelalisib, mainly used in combination with anti-CD20 antibodies. Among 716 patients, 33 matched the selection criteria (5%). Of those, the majority had relevant comorbidity, organ dysfunctions, and/or high-/very high-risk disease. The overall response rate was 73%. The median progression-free survival was 49.2 months compared with those not reached in younger patients. There were 11 documented deaths of which two were deemed related to therapy. Additional results including 40 patients treated with BTK-inhibitors from the GCLLSG registry suggest that treatment with targeted agents is feasible and effective. Dedicated studies are warranted for this particular subgroup of patients.

Abstract
Animal models have significantly advanced our understanding of the mechanisms of atherosclerosis formation and the evaluation of therapeutic options. The current focus of research is on preventive strategies and includes pharmacologic and biologic interventions directed primarily against smooth-muscle cell proliferation, endovascular devices for recanalization and/or drug delivery, and an integrated approach using both devices and pharmacobiologic agents. The experience over many decades with animal models in vascular research has established that a single, ideal, naturally available model for atherosclerosis does not exist. The spectrum ranges from large animals such as pigs to small animal experiments with genetically modified rodents such as the ApoE-/- mouse with correspondingly differently pronounced changes in their lipid and lipoprotein levels. The development of transgenic variants of currently available models, e.g., an ApoE-deficient rabbit line, has widened our options. Nevertheless, an appreciation of the individual features of natural or stimulated disease in each species is of importance for the proper design and execution of relevant experiments.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Paul Tessier was a leading French oculoplastic surgeon who took part in several surgical missions in Iran to manage victims of the Iraq-Iran conflict in the late 1980's and early 1990's. METHODS We collected the records of 322 patients who underwent surgical procedures for the management of wartime injuries by Paul Tessier's team in Iran from 1990 to 1993. We also report one of the most representative cases of orbital reconstruction performed by Tessier. RESULTS Mean age at the time of trauma was 20.65±7.04 years (range: 2--62). Craniofacial CT-scans were available for 54 patients. The bones of the upper third of the face and the orbital contents were affected in 124/322 patients (38.50%). Soft-tissue lesions of the upper third included 13 frontal lacerations (4.04%), 60 orbital injuries (18.63%) and 95 uni- or bilateral enucleations (29.50%). Thirty-nine uni- or bilateral lid injuries (12.11%) and 8 tear duct injuries (2.48%) were reported. A specific case of orbital reconstruction using antero-internal and posterior iliac bone grafts was reported as a representative example of Tessier's techniques. CONCLUSION This study highlights the challenges of orbital reconstruction in wartime injuries and provides insights on the work of one of the most renowned surgeons in this field.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Burkitt lymphoma (BL) and diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) are aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphomas (B-NHL) with a generally favorable prognosis after immunochemotherapy. The outcome of BL is superior to DLBCL. In 2016, a distinct group of lymphomas displaying characteristics of both BL and DLBCL (high grade B-cell lymphoma, HGBL) was introduced into the WHO classification. Histopathological discrimination of BL, DLBCL, and HGBL may be challenging. Data on the frequency of histopathological difficulties resulting in revision of the final diagnosis of BL/DLBCL/HGBL and its impact on the prognosis are limited. METHODS We assessed histopathological features and clinical outcomes of 66 patients with suspected diagnosis of BL at the reporting institution between 2010 and 2020. RESULTS The median age was 51 years (range 19-82) and final histopathological diagnosis revealed BL (n = 40), DLBCL (n = 12), or HGBL (n = 14). Patients with DLBCL and HGBL were either treated with DLBCL-directed (83.3% and 35.7%) or BL-directed (16.7% and 64.3%) protocols. Patients in whom diagnosis was revised from DLBCL to BL after initiation of DLBCL-directed treatment had a significantly inferior progression-free survival (PFS) than patients initially diagnosed with BL (p = 0.045), thus resembling rather the prognosis of DLBCL/HGBL. There was no difference between patients with DLBCL and HGBL, respectively, regarding PFS and OS (p = 0.38 and p = 0.27). CONCLUSION These results suggest that timely and precise histopathological diagnosis as well as reference histopathological review of the underlying lymphoma is critical to determine up-front treatment strategies. Consequently, selection of more aggressive treatment protocols in case of difficulties with discrimination between DLBCL/HGBL/BL may be a reasonable approach.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate interindividual anatomical variations of the epitympanum and the usable space for implantation of active middle ear implants (AMEI) as well as the usefulness of a tablet-based software to assess individual anatomy on computed tomography (CT) scans. PATIENTS CT scans of 126 patients, scheduled for cochlea implantation (50.8% men; 0.6-90.0 yr) without middle ear malformations or previous middle ear surgery and with slice thickness ≤0.7 mm were analyzed. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Since no standardized measurements to assess the size of the epitympanum are available, relevant distances were defined according to anatomical landmarks. Three independent raters measured these distances using a tablet-based software. Interrater correlation was computed to evaluate the quality of the measurement process. Descriptive data were analyzed for validation and for evaluation of interindividual anatomical variations. Influence of age and sex on the taken measurements was assessed. RESULTS No relevant correlation between age or sex and the anatomy of the epitympanum was found. Interrater correlation ranged from Spearman's ρ = 0.3-0.9 and there were significant differences between individual rater results for various combinations. Descriptive data revealed high interindividual anatomical variance of the epitympanum, especially regarding the distance between incus and skull base. CONCLUSION The reported descriptive data regarding the anatomy of the epitympanum emphasizes the importance of preoperative planning, especially since the height of the epitympanum showed great interindividual variance potentially limiting implantation of AMEIs. The herein used tablet-based software seems to be convenient for preoperative assessment of individual anatomy in the hand of otosurgeons.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to retrospectively investigate if there is any incidence of electrode tip fold-over with 31.5 mm long and flexible lateral wall electrodes implanted in two high-volume Cochlear Implant (CI) centers in Germany. In addition, a detailed literature review was performed to capture all the peer-reviewed publications reporting on tip fold-over with CI electrodes from different CI brands for comparison. METHODS Post-operative X-ray images of FLEX SOFT electrode from MED-EL in Stenver's view were retrospectively investigated for the presence of electrode tip fold-over from 378 consecutive cases in two high-volume CI centers in Germany. All patients were implanted between 2010 and 2018 by three individual experienced CI surgeons using round window and extended round window approach for CI electrode insertion. A literature review was performed following a thorough PubMed (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/) search using the keywords "cochlear implant electrode tip fold-over" or "cochlear implant electrode tip roll-over" to capture articles that were published until December 2020 in English language only. Articles selection was based on electrode-related issues investigated only in-patient cases applying imaging modality. Those studies investigated tip fold-over in cadaveric temporal bones and cases with inner-ear malformation excluded. RESULTS No single case of tip fold-over was clinically detected from the retrospective investigation of post-operative X-ray images from 378 consecutive cases. The electrode angular insertion depth as measured applying the cochlear coordinate system, varied from a minimum of 560° to a maximum of 720°. The literature review on the tip fold-over issue resulted in 24 peer-reviewed published articles in total. Tip fold-over with pre-curved modiolar-hugging electrodes was reported in 85 cases out of 1,606 implantations making an incidence rate of 5.3%. With the straight lateral wall electrodes, the tip fold-over was reported in four cases out of 398 implantations making an incidence rate of 1%, not including the number of implantations reported in the current study. Otherwise it would be 0.5%. CONCLUSION Electrode tip fold-over with 31.5 mm long flexible lateral wall electrodes is highly exceptional and this can be generalized to any of the straight lateral wall electrodes from any CI brand. The literature review on tip fold-over revealed an incidence rate of 5.3% with pre-curved or modiolar-hugging electrodes and 1% with straight lateral wall electrodes from CI brands. Including this series of 0% tip fold-over, the incidence rate of electrode tip fold-over with LW electrode type would be 0.5%.

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

Abstract
We report a measurement of the D^{0} and D^{+} lifetimes using D^{0}→K^{-}π^{+} and D^{+}→K^{-}π^{+}π^{+} decays reconstructed in e^{+}e^{-}→cc[over ¯] data recorded by the Belle II experiment at the SuperKEKB asymmetric-energy e^{+}e^{-} collider. The data, collected at center-of-mass energies at or near the ϒ(4S) resonance, correspond to an integrated luminosity of 72 fb^{-1}. The results, τ(D^{0})=410.5±1.1(stat)±0.8(syst) fs and τ(D^{+})=1030.4±4.7(stat)±3.1(syst) fs, are the most precise to date and are consistent with previous determinations.
