Abstract
Resistin is a protein involved in inflammation and angiogenesis processes and may play a role in the progression of colorectal cancer (CRC). However, it remains unclear whether resistin is associated with increased mortality after CRC diagnosis. We examined pre-diagnostic serum resistin concentrations in relation to CRC-specific and all-cause mortality among 1343 incident CRC cases from the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition cohort. For CRC-specific mortality as the primary outcome, hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (95% CI) were estimated from competing risk analyses based on cause-specific Cox proportional hazards models and further in sensitivity analyses using Fine-Gray proportional subdistribution hazards models. For all-cause mortality as the secondary outcome, Cox proportional hazards models were used. Subgroup analyses were performed by sex, tumor subsite, tumor stage, body mass index and time to CRC diagnosis. Resistin was measured on a median of 4.8 years before CRC diagnosis. During a median follow-up of 8.2 years, 474 deaths from CRC and 147 deaths from other causes were observed. Resistin concentrations were not associated with CRC-specific mortality (HRQ4vsQ1 = 0.95, 95% CI: 0.73-1.23; Ptrend = .97; and HRper doubling of resistin concentration = 1.00; 95% CI: 0.84-1.19; P = .98) or all-cause mortality. Results from competing risk (sensitivity) analysis were similar. No associations were found in any subgroup analyses. These findings suggest no association between pre-diagnostic circulating resistin concentrations and CRC-specific or all-cause mortality among persons with CRC, and the potential insignificance of resistin in CRC progression.

Abstract
Gut barrier dysfunction and related inflammation are known to be associated with the development and progression of colorectal cancer (CRC). We investigated associations of 292 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) from 27 genes related to endotoxins/lipopolysaccharide (LPS) sensing and tolerance, mucin synthesis, inflammation, and Crohn's disease with colon and rectal cancer risks. Incident CRC cases (N=1,374; colon=871, rectum=503) were matched 1:1 to controls nested within the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition cohort. Previously measured serum concentrations of gut barrier function and inflammation biomarkers (flagellin/LPS-specific immunoglobulins and C-reactive protein [CRP]) were available for a sub-set of participants (Ncases=1,001; Ncontrols=667). Forty-two unique SNPs from 19 different genes were associated with serum biomarkers at Punadjusted≤0.05 among controls. Among SNPs associated with a gut permeability score, 24 SNPs were in genes related to LPS sensing and mucin synthesis. Nine out of 12 SNPs associated with CRP were in genes related to inflammation or Crohn's disease. TLR4 was associated with colon cancer at the SNP level (nine SNPs, all Punadjusted≤0.04) and at the gene level (Punadjusted≤0.01). TLR4 rs10759934 was associated with rectal cancer but not colon cancer. Similarly, IL10 was associated with rectal cancer risk at a SNP and gene level (both Punadjusted ≤ 0.01), but not colon cancer. Genes and SNPs were selected a priori therefore we present unadjusted P-values. However, no association was statistically significant after multiple testing correction. This large and comprehensive study has identified gut barrier function and inflammation-related genes possibly contributing to CRC risk in European populations and is consistent with potential etiological links between host genetic background, gut barrier permeability, microbial endotoxemia and CRC development.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Excess body fatness and hyperinsulinemia are both associated with an increased risk of postmenopausal breast cancer. However, whether women with high body fatness but normal insulin levels or those with normal body fatness and high levels of insulin are at elevated risk of breast cancer is not known. We investigated the associations of metabolically defined body size and shape phenotypes with the risk of postmenopausal breast cancer in a nested case-control study within the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition. METHODS Concentrations of C-peptide-a marker for insulin secretion-were measured at inclusion prior to cancer diagnosis in serum from 610 incident postmenopausal breast cancer cases and 1130 matched controls. C-peptide concentrations among the control participants were used to define metabolically healthy (MH; in first tertile) and metabolically unhealthy (MU; >1st tertile) status. We created four metabolic health/body size phenotype categories by combining the metabolic health definitions with normal weight (NW; BMI < 25 kg/m2 , or WC < 80 cm, or WHR < 0.8) and overweight or obese (OW/OB; BMI ≥ 25 kg/m2 , or WC ≥ 80 cm, or WHR ≥ 0.8) status for each of the three anthropometric measures separately: (1) MHNW, (2) MHOW/OB, (3) MUNW, and (4) MUOW/OB. Conditional logistic regression was used to compute odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs). RESULTS Women classified as MUOW/OB were at higher risk of postmenopausal breast cancer compared to MHNW women considering BMI (OR = 1.58, 95% CI = 1.14-2.19) and WC (OR = 1.51, 95% CI = 1.09-2.08) cut points and there was also a suggestive increased risk for the WHR (OR = 1.29, 95% CI = 0.94-1.77) definition. Conversely, women with the MHOW/OB and MUNW were not at statistically significant elevated risk of postmenopausal breast cancer risk compared to MHNW women. CONCLUSION These findings suggest that being overweight or obese and metabolically unhealthy raises risk of postmenopausal breast cancer while overweight or obese women with normal insulin levels are not at higher risk. Additional research should consider the combined utility of anthropometric measures with metabolic parameters in predicting breast cancer risk.

Abstract
Glyceraldehyde-derived advanced glycation end products (glycer-AGEs) could contribute to colorectal cancer development and progression due to their pro-oxidative and pro-inflammatory properties. However, the association of glycer-AGEs with mortality after colorectal cancer diagnosis has not been previously investigated. Circulating glycer-AGEs were measured by competitive ELISA. Multivariable Cox proportional hazards models were used to calculate hazard ratios (HRs) and corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for associations of circulating glycer-AGEs concentrations with CRC-specific and all-cause mortality among 1034 colorectal cancer (CRC) cases identified within the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC) study between 1993 and 2013. During a mean of 48 months of follow-up, 529 participants died (409 from CRC). Glycer-AGEs were statistically significantly positively associated with CRC-specific (HRQ5 vs Q1 = 1.53, 95% CI: 1.04-2.25, Ptrend = .002) and all-cause (HRQ5 vs Q1 = 1.62, 95% CI: 1.16-2.26, Ptrend < .001) mortality among individuals with CRC. There was suggestion of a stronger association between glycer-AGEs and CRC-specific mortality among patients with distal colon cancer (per SD increment: HRproximal colon = 1.02, 95% CI: 0.74-1.42; HRdistal colon = 1.51, 95% CI: 1.20-1.91; Peffect modification = .02). The highest HR was observed among CRC cases in the highest body mass index (BMI) and glycer-AGEs category relative to lowest BMI and glycer-AGEs category for both CRC-specific (HR = 1.78, 95% CI: 1.02-3.01) and all-cause mortality (HR = 2.15, 95% CI: 1.33-3.47), although no statistically significant effect modification was observed. Our study found that prediagnostic circulating glycer-AGEs are positively associated with CRC-specific and all-cause mortality among individuals with CRC. Further investigations in other populations and stratifying by tumor location and BMI are warranted.

Abstract
Advanced glycation end-products (AGEs) may promote oxidative stress and inflammation and have been linked to multiple chronic diseases, including cancer. However, the association of AGEs with mortality after colorectal cancer (CRC) diagnosis has not been previously investigated. Multivariable Cox proportional hazards models were used to calculate hazard ratios and corresponding 95% confidence intervals for associations between dietary intake of AGEs with CRC-specific and all-cause mortality among 5801 participant cases diagnosed with CRC in the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition study between 1993 and 2013. Dietary intakes of AGEs were estimated using country-specific dietary questionnaires, linked to an AGE database, that accounted for food preparation and processing. During a median of 58 months of follow-up, 2421 cases died (1841 from CRC). Individually or combined, dietary intakes of AGEs were not associated with all-cause and CRC-specific mortality among cases. However, there was a suggestion for a positive association between AGEs and all-cause or CRC-specific mortality among CRC cases without type II diabetes (all-cause, Pinteraction = 0.05) and CRC cases with the longest follow-up between recruitment and cancer diagnosis (CRC-specific, Pinteraction = 0.003; all-cause, Pinteraction = 0.01). Our study suggests that pre-diagnostic dietary intakes of AGEs were not associated with CRC-specific or all-cause mortality among CRC patients. Further investigations using biomarkers of AGEs and stratifying by sex, diabetes status, and timing of exposure to AGEs are warranted.

Abstract
Mitochondrial dysfunction plays critical roles in cancer development and related therapeutic response; however, exact molecular mechanisms remain unclear. Recently, alongside the discovery of mitochondrial-specific DNA methyltransferases, global and site-specific methylation of the mitochondrial genome has been described. Investigation of any functional consequences however remains unclear and debated due to insufficient evidence of the quantitative degree and frequency of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) methylation. This study uses WGBS to provide the first quantitative report of mtDNA methylation at single base pair resolution. The data show that mitochondrial genomes are extensively methylated predominantly at non-CpG sites. Importantly, these methylation patterns display notable differences between normal and cancer cells. Furthermore, knockdown of DNA methyltransferase enzymes resulted in a marked global reduction of mtDNA methylation levels, indicating these enzymes may be associated with the establishment and/or maintenance of mtDNA methylation. DNMT3B knockdown cells displayed a comparatively pronounced global reduction in mtDNA methylation with concomitant increases in gene expression, suggesting a potential functional link between methylation and gene expression. Together these results demonstrate reproducible, non-random methylation patterns of mtDNA and challenge the notion that mtDNA is lowly methylated. This study discusses key differences in methodology that suggest future investigations must allow for techniques that assess both CpG and non-CpG methylation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Neoadjuvant chemotherapy for breast cancer has the potential to achieve a pathological complete response in up to 40 per cent of patients, converting disease that was initially node-positive to node-negative. This has raised the question of whether sentinel lymph node biopsy could be an alternative to axillary lymph node dissection in these patients. The aim was to undertake a systematic review and meta-analysis of the accuracy and reliability of sentinel lymph node biopsy after neoadjuvant chemotherapy in patients with initial biopsy-proven node-positive breast cancer. METHODS A literature search was conducted using PubMed, Ovid MEDLINE, Embase and Web of Science databases up to 30 April 2017. Inclusion criteria for studies were pathological confirmation of initial node-positive disease, and sentinel lymph node biopsy performed after neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by axillary lymph node dissection. RESULTS A total of 13 studies met the inclusion criteria and were included in the analysis (1921 patients in total). The pooled estimate of identification rate was 90 (95 per cent c.i. 87 to 93) per cent and the false-negative rate was 14 (11 to 17) per cent. In subgroup analysis, the false-negative rate with use of dual mapping was 11 (6 to 15) per cent, compared with 19 (11 to 27) per cent with single mapping. The false-negative rate was 20 (13 to 27) per cent when one node was removed, 12 (5 to 19) per cent with two nodes removed and 4 (0 to 9) per cent with removal of three or more nodes. CONCLUSION Sentinel lymph node biopsy after neoadjuvant chemotherapy in patients with biopsy-proven node-positive breast cancer is accurate and reliable, but requires careful patient selection and optimal surgical techniques.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Although close radial margins after breast-conserving surgery routinely undergo re-excision, appropriate management of patients with close anterior margins remains a topic of controversy. An increasing body of literature suggests that re-excision of close anterior margins yields low rates of residual malignancy and may only be necessary in selected patients. The aim of this study was to examine the management of close anterior margins after breast conserving surgery in a single institution and to analyse the rate of residual disease in re-excised anterior margins. METHODS All patients having breast conserving surgery at St Vincent's University Hospital from January 2008 to December 2012 were reviewed retrospectively. Data collected included patient demographics, tumour characteristics, margin positivity, re-excision rates and definitive histology of the re-excision specimens. A close margin was defined as les than 2 mm. RESULTS A total of 930 patients were included with an average age of 65 years (range 29-94 years). Of these, 121 (13%) had a close anterior margin. Further re-excison of the anterior margin was carried out in 37 patients (30.6%) and a further 16 (13.2%) proceeded to mastectomy. Residual disease was found in 18.5% (7/36) of those who underwent re-excision and 7/16 (43.75%) of those who underwent mastectomy. Overall, 11.57% (14/121) of patients with close anterior margins were subsequently found to have residual disease. CONCLUSION The low yield of residual disease in re-excised anterior margins specimens supports the concept that routine re-excision of close anterior margins is not necessary. Further research is required to definitively assess its influence on the risk of local recurrence.

Abstract
Low intensity transcranial electrical stimulation (TES) in humans, encompassing transcranial direct current (tDCS), transcutaneous spinal Direct Current Stimulation (tsDCS), transcranial alternating current (tACS), and transcranial random noise (tRNS) stimulation or their combinations, appears to be safe. No serious adverse events (SAEs) have been reported so far in over 18,000 sessions administered to healthy subjects, neurological and psychiatric patients, as summarized here. Moderate adverse events (AEs), as defined by the necessity to intervene, are rare, and include skin burns with tDCS due to suboptimal electrode-skin contact. Very rarely mania or hypomania was induced in patients with depression (11 documented cases), yet a causal relationship is difficult to prove because of the low incidence rate and limited numbers of subjects in controlled trials. Mild AEs (MAEs) include headache and fatigue following stimulation as well as prickling and burning sensations occurring during tDCS at peak-to-baseline intensities of 1-2mA and during tACS at higher peak-to-peak intensities above 2mA. The prevalence of published AEs is different in studies specifically assessing AEs vs. those not assessing them, being higher in the former. AEs are frequently reported by individuals receiving placebo stimulation. The profile of AEs in terms of frequency, magnitude and type is comparable in healthy and clinical populations, and this is also the case for more vulnerable populations, such as children, elderly persons, or pregnant women. Combined interventions (e.g., co-application of drugs, electrophysiological measurements, neuroimaging) were not associated with further safety issues. Safety is established for low-intensity 'conventional' TES defined as <4mA, up to 60min duration per day. Animal studies and modeling evidence indicate that brain injury could occur at predicted current densities in the brain of 6.3-13A/m2 that are over an order of magnitude above those produced by tDCS in humans. Using AC stimulation fewer AEs were reported compared to DC. In specific paradigms with amplitudes of up to 10mA, frequencies in the kHz range appear to be safe. In this paper we provide structured interviews and recommend their use in future controlled studies, in particular when trying to extend the parameters applied. We also discuss recent regulatory issues, reporting practices and ethical issues. These recommendations achieved consensus in a meeting, which took place in Göttingen, Germany, on September 6-7, 2016 and were refined thereafter by email correspondence.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
The majority of women with breast cancer present with localized disease. The optimal strategy for identifying patients with metastatic disease at diagnosis remains unclear. The aim of this study was to evaluate the additional diagnostic yield from isotope bone scanning when added to CT staging of the thorax, abdomen and pelvis (CT-TAP) in patients with newly diagnosed breast cancer.
Methods
All patients diagnosed with breast cancer who underwent staging CT-TAP and bone scan between 2011 and 2013 were identified from a prospective database of a tertiary referral breast cancer centre that provides a symptomatic and population-based screening breast service. Criteria for staging included: biopsy-proven axillary nodal metastases; planned neoadjuvant chemotherapy or mastectomy; locally advanced or inflammatory breast cancer and symptoms suggestive of metastases.
Results
A total of 631 patients underwent staging by CT-TAP and bone scan. Of these, 69 patients (10·9 per cent) had distant metastasis at presentation, with disease confined to a single organ in 49 patients (71 per cent) and 20 (29 per cent) having metastatic deposits in multiple organs. Bone metastasis was the most common site; 39 of 49 patients had bone metastasis alone and 12 had a single isolated metastatic deposit. All but two of these were to the axial skeleton. No preoperative histological factors identified a cohort of patients at risk of metastatic disease. Omission of the bone scan in systemic staging would have resulted in a false-negative rate of 0·8 per cent.
Conclusion
For patients diagnosed with breast cancer, CT-TAP is a satisfactory stand-alone investigation for systemic staging.

Abstract
BACKGROUND An association between interval breast cancers (cancer detected after a normal mammogram and before the next scheduled mammogram) and tumour aggressiveness has been postulated which may reflect their relatively poor overall prognosis. The aim of this study was to evaluate known prognostic features of screen detected breast cancers compared to interval breast cancers. METHODS Patients diagnosed with breast cancer between January 2010 and 2013 at a single unit of the National Breast Screening Program (NBSP) in Ireland and those between the ages of 50 and 65 diagnosed at a symptomatic breast clinic were included in the study. Patients who had not had a screening mammogram within the proceeding two years or had a previous history of breast cancer were excluded. Data were retrospectively collected on patient demographics, tumour type, grade, hormone receptor status and stage of disease at presentation. RESULTS There were 915 patients included in the study, with 92% (n = 844) diagnosed through the NBSP. Ductal carcinoma in-situ accounted for 19% (n = 160) of screen-detected breast cancers but only 2.8% of interval cancers (p < 0.05). The most common type of invasive cancer was invasive ductal carcinoma. Tumour grade was significantly higher in interval breast cancers (p < 0.05). Interval cancers were identified at a significantly higher stage (Stage 1 versus 2; p < 0.001) than screen-detected cancers. Interval breast cancers were less likely to be ER positive (76% versus 81%; p < 0.05) and significantly more likely to over-express HER2 (20% vs 10%, p < 0.05) than screen-detected cancers. CONCLUSION This study highlights the fact that interval cancers appear to have a number of adverse prognostic markers for overall breast cancer survival when compared to women with screen-detected breast cancers. Interval cancers were more likely to be invasive, of a higher grade and stage and with a greater predominance of HER2 and triple negative molecular subtypes. Therefore this heterogeneous group of tumours may be biologically more aggressive and account disproportionately to overall breast cancer mortality.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Children in care often have poor outcomes. There is a lack of evaluative research into intervention options. AIMS To examine the efficacy of Multidimensional Treatment Foster Care for Adolescents (MTFC-A) compared with usual care for young people at risk in foster care in England. METHOD A two-arm single (assessor) blinded randomised controlled trial (RCT) embedded within an observational quasi-experimental case-control study involving 219 young people aged 11-16 years (trial registration: ISRCTN 68038570). The primary outcome was the Child Global Assessment Scale (CGAS). Secondary outcomes were ratings of educational attendance, achievement and rate of offending. RESULTS The MTFC-A group showed a non-significant improvement in CGAS outcome in both the randomised cohort (n = 34, adjusted mean difference 1.3, 95% CI -7.1 to 9.7, P = 0.75) and in the trimmed observational cohort (n = 185, adjusted mean difference 0.95, 95% CI -2.38 to 4.29, P = 0.57). No significant effects were seen in secondary outcomes. There was a possible differential effect of the intervention according to antisocial behaviour. CONCLUSIONS There was no evidence that the use of MTFC-A resulted in better outcomes than usual care. The intervention may be more beneficial for young people with antisocial behaviour but less beneficial than usual treatment for those without.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction
The advent of multimodal and targeted breast cancer treatment has seen a radical shift from aggressive surgical intervention to a more minimalist approach, both within the breast and axilla. Primary among these changes is the utilisation of the sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) to detect disease within the axilla and a move away from an obligatory axillary clearance when the sentinel node is positive. This depends on the accurate identification of the SLN and initial studies describe a higher identification rate and a lower false negative rate with a dual tracer identification technique. This encompasses a combination of a blue / green dye and radio-labelled isotope. The use of blue dye has been, of itself, associated with significant morbidity and therefore many clinicians may opt for single tracer identification.
Aims
The aim of the current study was to determine whether the addition of blue dye to radio-isotope increased the positive SLN detection rate, where the SLN was identified pre-operatively on a lymphoscintigram.
Methods
A prospective randomised controlled trial comparing the combined techniques of isosulphan blue dye and isotope scanning versus isotope scanning alone was performed at a single tertiary referral centre. Ethical approval was obtained prior to commencing the study from the hospital ethics committee. Enrolment commenced in March 2010 and ceased in September 2012. The study design was a randomised open label controlled parallel group trial. The primary outcome measure was the effect of the omission of the blue dye on the identification of SLN if the lymphoscintigram was positive (1 -3 nodes identified).
Results
A total of 673 patients were included in the final analysis with 344 patients receiving the combination (blue dye and radio-isotope) and 329 patients who received radio-isotope scanning alone. The groups were evenly matched both demographically and pathologically. The mean age was 48 years (48.3 versus 47.7 years; P = 0.47), the mean tumour size was 23.1mm (23.2mm versus 23.0mm; p = 0.89) and there was no statistically significant difference in the grade of the tumours between the two groups (p = 0.58). Overall, there was no difference in the number of nodes retrieved between the two groups (563 versus 523; p = 0.30). Similarly, there was no difference in the number of positive lymph nodes that were identified between the two groups (107 versus 98; 23.8% versus 22%; p = 0.65).
Conclusions
The addition of isosulphan blue dye does not aid in the identification of the SLN in patients who have a positive lymphoscintigram when radioisotope colloid is used.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction
Recent years have seen a dramatic shift to more conservative management of the axilla and the presence of a positive sentinel lymph node biopsy does not now automatically mandate an axillary clearance. This is based largely on data from the American College of Surgeons Oncology Group (ACOSOG) Z11 study, which failed to demonstrate a difference in local recurrence or overall survival when an axillary clearance was omitted in a highly selective group of patients with a positive sentinel lymph node. However, the presence of a positive pre-operative ultrasound guided axillary FNAC(Fine Needle Aspiration Cytology) may be representative of a higher burden of axillary disease.
Aim
Therefore, the aims of this study were firstly to quantify the actual nodal burden in breast cancer patients with a positive pre-operative ultrasound guided axillary FNAC and secondly to identify the number of patients who may have been spared an axillary clearance based on Z11 eligibility criteria.
Methods
A retrospective review of a prospectively maintained database within a tertiary breast cancer referral centre was performed. All patients with a positive pre-operative axillary FNAC were identified within a five year period (2007 – 2011). Demographic, tumour and biological characteristics and final nodal status were analysed. Eligibility for randomisation according to the Z11 criteria was assessed based on the final pathology and the number of patients who could have been spared an axillary clearance was identified.
Results
A total of 360 patients were identified with a positive axillary ultrasound guided FNAC. Sixty-three patients had no axillary surgery and three patients had recurrent disease, leaving a total of 294 for analysis. The mean age was 56 years (range 22 – 87). The mean size of the tumour was 31.3mm (range 4mm – 132mm) and the majority were an invasive grade 3 (57%) ductal carcinoma (84%). Luminal A (63%) was the commonest sub-type. The mean number of nodes removed at axillary clearance was 24 (range 7 – 58) while the mean number of positive nodes excised was 6 (range 0 – 47). Of these, the mean number of level I positive nodes was 4, level II was 1 and level III nodes was <1.
Overall a total of 78 patients had less than three positive nodes identified in the axilla and potentially may have been eligible for the Z11 study. However, when patients who had a mastectomy, neo-adjuvant chemotherapy were excluded and the presence of extra-capsular nodal involvement was accounted for only 19 (6.4%) patients may have been spared an axillary clearance.
Conclusions
The presence of nodal positivity on a pre-operative FNAC is associated with a higher burden of axillary disease. Only a minority of these patients would be able to avoid an axillary clearance in the setting of the recent Z11 study. Performing an axillary ultrasound and FNAC of suspicious nodes allows patients to avoid an unnecessary sentinel lymph node biopsy and proceed directly to an axillary clearance.
