Abstract
The importance of measuring quality of survival within paediatric oncology trials is increasingly recognised. However, capturing neuropsychological outcomes and other aspects of quality of survival in the context of large or multinational trials can be challenging. We provide examples of protocols designed to address this challenge recently employed in clinical trials in the USA and Europe. We discuss their respective strengths and challenges, obstacles encountered and future opportunities for transatlantic collaboration.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVE: We prospectively examined neuropsychological outcomes and ototoxicity in children with average-risk medulloblastoma. METHODS: Eligible patients included those treated on COG protocol ACNS0331 who completed audiograms at end of therapy or one-year off-therapy, and neuropsychological assessments between 2- and 5-years post-diagnosis. Conventional pure-tone audiometric evaluations (0.25-8kHz) were assigned an ototoxicity grade based on the International Society of Pediatric Oncology (SIOP) grading scale. Grade for the better hearing ear was used for analyses. Participants were divided into two groups: SIOP grade≥3 hearing loss (HL) versus SIOP grade<3. Cutoff score of 60 on BASC-2 was used to dichotomize parent-reported anxiety and depression scores as ‘low’ or ‘high’. RESULTS: Data were available for 113 children (66% male; 86% white), aged 3.0-18.5 at diagnosis (Mean=9.1). One-quarter (24.8%, n=28) had at least moderate HL (≥ SIOP grade 2), and 12.3% (n=14) had severe HL (≥ SIOP grade 3). After controlling for radiation exposure and age, children with severe HL showed significantly higher levels of anxiety (OR=5.9, 95%CI 1.3-26.0, p=0.0195) and borderline differences in depression (OR=4.0, 95%CI 1.0-16.5, p=0.0563), but no differences in cognitive functioning when compared to other participants. When moderate and severe HL were combined in exploratory analyses, significantly greater anxiety (OR=9.0, 95%CI 2.1-37.4, p=.0027) and depression (OR=4.6, 95%CI 1.3-15.7, p=.0165) were observed. CONCLUSIONS: Survivors of pediatric medulloblastoma with moderate to severe HL evidenced greater psychosocial, but not neurocognitive, difficulties compared to those with no or mild HL. It may be that modern treatment protocols generally preserve cognitive functioning such that associations between HL and cognitive impairment are no longer significant. It is also possible that neurocognitive risk associated with HL may not manifest until survivors are further from diagnosis. In contrast, survivors with HL may be at greater risk for negative psychosocial adjustment, suggesting that increased monitoring of mental health outcomes is warranted.

Abstract
Abstract
Risks of cognitive late effects in children with brain tumors is well-established. However, group heterogeneity may limit generalizability and result in inadequate neurocognitive monitoring and care. Children with CMS have unique long-term cognitive risks and current knowledge may not adequately describe their experience or needs. The establishment and implementation of patient-centered, empirically-derived assessment of cognitive change following tumor diagnosis and treatment is a novel, precision-based approach to patient care. METHODS: 30 patients diagnosed with posterior fossa tumor who had at least 2 neuropsychological evaluations were included. Primary outcomes were processing speed (Wechsler PSI) and working memory (WMI). Secondary outcomes were verbal and nonverbal intellect. Reliable change indices (RCIs) were computed (Chelune et al., 1993). Using an 80% CI, 10% would be expected to decline, while 90% would stay stable or improve. RESULTS: Mean age in the full sample was 9.2 (3.32) years at T1 and 13.0 (4.11) years at T2, with an average of 2.7 (2.58) years between assessments. Males made up 56.7% of the sample. Five of the 30 (17%) were CMS+. The CMS+ patients were similar in age to CMS- patients, were predominantly male (80%), and mostly received photon radiation (60%). The full sample showed greater prevalence of declining verbal (21%), spatial (58%) and working memory (29%) functions than the expected (10%). The CMS+ group had higher rates of processing speed (50% v. 7%) and working memory (50% v. 27%) declines than the CMS- group. In contrast, the CMS- group appeared to show more prevalent declines in spatial reasoning than the CMS+ group (67% v. 33%). CONCLUSIONS: There appear to be unique domains impacted in the CMS+ group, which can convey specific long-term outcomes specific to this subgroup of patients. These results highlight the utility of individualized, empirically-driven analysis of change in cognitive functioning in this patient population.

Abstract
LAY ABSTRACT Executive functions are often impaired in autistic people and relate to important outcomes such as mental health, success in school and work, and quality of life. Evaluating executive functions helps autistic people, clinicians, and families identify targets for external supports and skill building. Youth self-report of executive function has not been studied, yet we know that self-report from autistic youth is key to understanding other cognitive/behavioral phenomena in autism such as anxiety, obsessions/compulsions, sensory sensitivities, and repetitive behaviors. We investigated self- and parent-report of executive function problems in 197 autistic youth without intellectual disability (ages 11-18 years), including the magnitude and profiles of executive function problems autistic youth report across subdomains of executive function. We compared autistic self-report with that of 114 youth with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder without intellectual disability and 197 neurotypical youth. We found that autistic youth report significant executive function problems compared to neurotypical youth and a distinctive profile of challenges in comparison to attention deficit hyperactivity disorder youth. Parents and their autistic children diverged regarding the magnitude of the youth's executive function difficulties, but both identify inflexibility as the most impaired executive function subdomain. Autistic youth and their parents were somewhat more concordant in their report of executive function problems than youth with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder and their parents, but only showed moderate concordance at best. These findings elevate the importance of asking autistic youth directly about their executive functioning when engaging them in assessment and intervention, or researching executive functions in autism.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A novel pathway incorporating faecal immunochemical testing (FIT) for rapid colorectal cancer diagnosis (RCCD) was introduced in 2017. This paper reports on the service evaluation after 2 years of pathway implementation. METHODS The RCCD protocol was based on FIT, blood results and symptoms to stratify adult patients in primary care. Two-week-wait (2WW) investigation was indicated for patients with rectal bleeding, rectal mass and faecal haemoglobin (fHb) level of 10 µg Hb/g faeces or above or 4 µg Hb/g faeces or more in the presence of anaemia, low ferritin or thrombocytosis, in all other symptom groups. Patients with 100 µg Hb/g faeces or above had expedited investigation . A retrospective audit of colorectal cancer detected between 2017 and 2019 was conducted, fHb thresholds were reviewed and critically assessed for cancer diagnoses. RESULTS In 2 years, 14788 FIT tests were dispatched with 13361 (90.4 per cent) completed returns. Overall, fHb was less than 4 µg Hb/g faeces in 9208 results (68.9 per cent), 4-9.9 µg Hb/g in 1583 (11.8 per cent), 10-99.9 µg Hb/g in 1850 (13.8 per cent) and 100 µg Hb/g faeces or above in 720 (5.4 per cent). During follow-up (median 10.4 months), 227 colorectal cancers were diagnosed. The cancer detection rate was 0.1 per cent in patients with fHb below 4 µg Hb/g faeces, 0.6 per cent in those with fHb 4-9.9 µg Hb/g faeces, 3.3 per cent for fHb 10-99.9 µg Hb/g faeces and 20.7 per cent for fHb 100 µg Hb/g faeces or above. The detection rate in the cohort with 10-19.9 µg Hb/g faeces was 1.4 per cent, below the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence threshold for urgent referral. The colorectal cancer rate in patients with fHb below 20 µg Hb/g faeces was less than 0.3 per cent. CONCLUSION Use of FIT to "rule out" urgent referral from primary care misses a small number of cases. The threshold for referral may be adjusted with blood results to improve stratification .

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a common opportunistic pathogen and molecular typing in outbreaks has linked patient acquisition to contaminated hospital water systems. AIM To elucidate the role of P. aeruginosa transmission rates in non-outbreak augmented care settings in the UK. METHODS Over a 16-week period, all water outlets in augmented care units of four hospitals were sampled for P. aeruginosa and clinical isolates were collected. Outlet and clinical P. aeruginosa isolates underwent whole-genome sequencing (WGS), which with epidemiological data identified acquisition from water as definite (level 1), probable (level 2), possible (level 3), and no evidence (level 4). FINDINGS Outlets were positive in each hospital on all three occasions: W (16%), X (2.5%), Y (0.9%) and Z (2%); and there were 51 persistently positive outlets in total. WGS identified likely transmission (at levels 1, 2 and 3) from outlets to patients in three hospitals for P. aeruginosa positive patients: W (63%), X (54.5%) and Z (26%). According to the criteria (intimate epidemiological link and no phylogenetic distance), approximately 5% of patients in the study 'definitely' acquired their P. aeruginosa from their water outlets in the intensive care unit. This study found extensive evidence of transmission from the outlet to the patients particularly in the newest hospital (W), which had the highest rate of positive outlets. CONCLUSIONS The overall findings suggest that water outlets are the most likely source of P. aeruginosa nosocomial infections in some settings, and that widespread introduction of control measures would have a substantial impact on infections.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Prescribing errors are prevalent in hospital settings with provision of feedback recommended to support prescribing of doctors. Feedback on prescribing has been described as feasible and valued but limited by doctors, with pharmacists described as credible facilitators of prescribing feedback. Evidence supporting prescribing feedback has been limited to date. A formalised programme of pharmacist-led prescribing error feedback was designed and implemented to support prescribers. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the impact of a prescribing feedback intervention on prescribing error rates and frequency of prescribing error severity and type. METHOD Prospective prescribing audits were undertaken across sixteen hospital wards in a UK teaching hospital over a five day period with 36 prescribers in the intervention group and 41 in the control group. The intervention group received pharmacist-led, individualised constructive feedback on their prescribing, whilst the control group continued with existing practice. Prescribing was re-audited after three months. Prescribing errors were classified by type and severity and data were analysed using relevant statistical tests. RESULTS A total of 5191 prescribed medications were audited at baseline and 5122 post-intervention. There was a mean prescribing error rate of 25.0% (SD 16.8, 95% CI 19.3 to 30.7) at baseline and 6.7% (SD 9.0, 95% CI 3.7 to 9.8) post-intervention for the intervention group, and 19.7% (SD 14.5, 95% CI 15.2 to 24.3) at baseline and 25.1% (SD 17.0, 95% CI 19.8 to 30.6) post-intervention for the control group with a significant overall change in prescribing error rates between groups of 23.7% (SD 3.5, 95% CI, -30.6 to -16.8), t(75) = -6.9, p < 0.05. The frequency of each error type and severity rating was reduced in the intervention group, whilst the error frequency of some error types and severity increased in the control group. CONCLUSION Pharmacist-led prescribing feedback has the potential to reduce prescribing errors and improve prescribing outcomes and patient safety.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Recently published data demonstrated proton therapy (PRT) significantly reduced cognitive decline relative to photons for pediatric medulloblastoma. These findings imply that reductions in dose to critical CNS structures during the boost phase may account for better outcomes over time. Here, we examine differences in dosimetric data for medulloblastoma patients treated on ACNS0331 with photon (Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy, 3D-Conformal Radiation Therapy) vs PRT to identify potential structures responsible for cognitive benefit. METHODS COG ACNS0331 was a randomized trial examining the impact of reduced craniospinal irradiation (CSI) dose (standard vs low dose, in patients aged 3–7) and volume (whole posterior fossa vs involved field) in pediatric medulloblastoma patients. We identified 136 patients (IMRT=95, 3DCRT=28, Proton=13) enrolled on ACNS0331 with complete radiation and imaging data and re-contoured 10 critical brain structures to calculate dose. RESULTS Proton therapy significantly reduced the dose to critical structures. For example, temporal lobe mean dose and V30 were 30Gy/38% (PRT), 40Gy/89% (IMRT), 41Gy/84% (3DCRT)), hippocampi mean dose were 51 Gy (IMRT), 52 Gy (3DCRT), and 44Gy (PRT) and cochlear mean dose were 43 Gy (IMRT), 49 Gy (3DCRT), and 31Gy (PRT). Dose to several other critical structures were also significantly reduced including the whole brain, supratentorium, cerebellum, and pituitary. CONCLUSIONS Proton therapy greatly reduces dose to critical CNS structures when compared to IMRT or 3DCRT. Further studies are needed to correlate dose reductions in these structures with improved cognitive outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES We examined longitudinal verbal and visual memory functioning in children treated for medulloblastoma on COG protocol ACNS0331. METHODS Children with medulloblastoma participated in neuropsychological testing at three timepoints over a 6-year period. Children aged 3–7 years were randomized to receive craniospinal irradiation (CSI) of either 23.4Gy (standard dose; SDCSI) or 18Gy (lower dose; LDCSI). Children aged 8+ received SDCSI. All children were also randomized to receive either a reduced radiation boost to the involved field (IFRT) or a standard boost to the whole posterior fossa (PFRT). Memory functioning was evaluated an average of 0.67(T1), 2.95(T2), and 4.90(T3) years post-diagnosis. RESULTS Of 464 eligible patients enrolled on ACNS0331, 354 (76%; 65.3% male, 83.1% white) completed some neuropsychological testing. Mean age at diagnosis was 9.1 years (range=3–19). Verbal and visual short-term memory and learning were broadly within the average range for the overall sample at all three timepoints. However, a large percentage of children exhibited scores ≥1SD below the mean on tasks of verbal learning both immediately (43.4%) and after a delay (40.7%) at T3. In addition, 58.6% of children randomized to SDCSI exhibited impairment in verbal learning after a delay compared to 34.8% of children randomized to LDSCI, and 35.0% of those aged ≥8 at diagnosis receiving SDCSI. CONCLUSIONS Younger children receiving SDCSI have particularly high rates of memory impairment five years after diagnosis of medulloblastoma. Limiting CSI dose and/or volume in young children treated for this diagnosis may improve outcomes for memory functioning.

Abstract
Purpose Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) is associated with tumor predisposition and non-malignant health conditions. Whether survivors of childhood cancer with NF1 are at increased risk for poor long-term health outcomes is unknown. Methods 147 5+ year survivors of childhood glioma with NF1 from the Childhood Cancer Survivor Study were compared to 2 629 non-NF1 glioma survivors and 5 051 siblings for late mortality, chronic health conditions, psychosocial, neurocognitive, and socioeconomic outcomes. Results Survivors with NF1 (age at diagnosis: 6.8±4.8 years) had greater cumulative incidence of late mortality 30 years after diagnosis (46.3%[95% confidence interval: 23.9%−62.2%]) compared to non-NF1 survivors (18.0%[16.1%−20.0%]) and siblings (0.9%[0.6%−1.2%]), largely due to subsequent neoplasms. Compared to survivors without NF1, those with NF1 had more severe/life-threatening chronic conditions at cohort entry (46.3%[38.1%−54.4%] vs. 30.8%[29.1%−32.6%]), but similar rates of new conditions during follow-up (Rate Ratio: 1.26 [0.90–1.77]). Survivors with NF1 were more likely to report psychosocial impairments, neurocognitive deficits, and socioeconomic difficulties compared to survivors without NF1. Conclusion Late mortality among glioma survivors with NF1 is twice that of other survivors, due largely to subsequent malignancies. Screening, prevention and early intervention for chronic health conditions, psychosocial and neurocognitive deficits may reduce long-term morbidity in this vulnerable population.

Abstract
Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is the most common endocrine disorder amongst women of reproductive age, whose aetiology remains unclear. To improve our understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying the disease, we conducted a genome-wide DNA methylation profiling in granulosa lutein cells collected from 16 women suffering from PCOS, in comparison to 16 healthy controls. Samples were collected by follicular aspiration during routine egg collection for IVF treatment. Study groups were matched for age and BMI, did not suffer from other disease and were not taking confounding medication. Comparing women with polycystic versus normal ovarian morphology, after correcting for multiple comparisons, we identified 106 differentially methylated CpG sites with p-values <5.8 × 10-8 that were associated with 88 genes, several of which are known to relate either to PCOS or to ovarian function. Replication and validation of the experiment was done using pyrosequencing to analyse six of the identified differentially methylated sites. Pathway analysis indicated potential disruption in canonical pathways and gene networks that are, amongst other, associated with cancer, cardiogenesis, Hedgehog signalling and immune response. In conclusion, these novel findings indicate that women with PCOS display epigenetic changes in ovarian granulosa cells that may be associated with the heterogeneity of the disorder.

Abstract
AIMS We report on a measles outbreak largely occurring in Minnesota's under-vaccinated Somali community in the spring of 2017. The outbreak was already into its third generation when the first two cases were confirmed, and rapid public health actions were needed. The aim of our response was to quickly end transmission and contain the outbreak. METHODS The state public health department performed laboratory testing on suspect cases and activated an Incident Command staffed by subject matter experts that was operational within 2 h of case confirmation. Epidemiologic interviews identified exposures in settings where risk of transmission was high, that is, healthcare, childcare, and school settings. Vaccination status of exposed persons was assessed, and postexposure prophylaxis (PEP) was offered, if applicable. Exposed persons who did not receive PEP were excluded from childcare centers or schools for 21 days. An accelerated statewide measles, mumps, and rubella (MMR) recommendation was made for Somali Minnesota children and children in affected outbreak counties. Partnerships with the Somali Minnesota community were deepened, building off outreach work done with the community since 2008. RESULTS Public health identified 75 measles cases from 30 March to 25 August 2017: 43% were female, 81% Somali Minnesotan, 91% unvaccinated, and 28% hospitalized. The median age of cases was 2 years (range: 3 months-57 years). Most transmission (78%) occurred in childcare centers and households. A secondary attack rate of 91% was calculated for unvaccinated household contacts. Over 51,000 doses of MMR were administered during the outbreak above expected baseline. At least 8490 individuals were exposed to measles; 155 individuals received PEP; and over 500 persons were excluded from childcare and school. State and key public health partners spent an estimated $2.3 million on response. CONCLUSION This outbreak demonstrates the necessity of immediate, targeted disease control actions and strong public health, healthcare, and community partnerships to end a measles outbreak.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Aberrant function of granulosa cells has been implicated in the pathophysiology of PCOS. MATERIALS & METHODS Granulosa lutein (GL) cells were collected during oocyte retrieval for IVF/ICSI. RT-qPCR was used to compare gene expression between 12 control women, 12 with ovulatory PCO and 12 with anovulatory PCOS. To examine which genes are directly regulated by androgens, GL cells from an additional 12 control women were treated in-vitro with 10 nM dihydrotestosterone (DHT). RESULTS GL cells from women with PCOS showed reduced expression of CYP11A1 3-fold (p = 0.005), HSD17B1 1.8-fold (p = 0.02) and increased expression of SULT1E1 7-fold (p = 0.0003). Similar results were seen in ovulatory women with PCO. GL cells treated with 10 nM DHT showed a 4-fold (p = 0.03) increase in expression of SULT1E1 and a 5-fold reduction in SRD5A1 (p = 0.03). CONCLUSIONS These findings support the notion that aberrant regulation of steroid metabolism or action play a part in ovarian dysfunction in PCOS.

Abstract
STUDY QUESTION What are the in vivo and in vitro actions of kisspeptin-54 on the expression of genes involved in ovarian reproductive function, steroidogenesis and ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) in granulosa lutein (GL) cells when compared with traditional triggers of oocyte maturation? SUMMARY ANSWER The use of kisspeptin-54 as an oocyte maturation trigger augmented expression of genes involved in ovarian steroidogenesis in human GL cells including, FSH receptor (FSHR), LH/hCG receptor (LHCGR), steroid acute regulatory protein (STAR), aromatase, estrogen receptors alpha and beta (ESR1, ESR2), 3-beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 2 (3BHSD2) and inhibin A (INHBA), when compared to traditional maturation triggers, but did not alter markers of OHSS. WHAT IS KNOWN ALREADY hCG is the most widely used trigger of oocyte maturation, but is associated with an increased risk of OHSS. The use of GnRH agonists to trigger oocyte maturation is a safer alternative to hCG. More recently, kisspeptin-54 has emerged as a novel therapeutic option that safely triggers oocyte maturation even in women at high risk of OHSS. Kisspeptin indirectly stimulates gonadotropin secretion by acting on hypothalamic GnRH neurons. Kisspeptin and its receptor are also expressed in the human ovary, but there is limited data on the direct action of kisspeptin on the ovary. STUDY DESIGN SIZE, DURATION Forty-eight women undergoing IVF treatment for infertility consented to kisspeptin-54 triggering and/or granulosa cell collection and were included in the study. Twelve women received hCG, 12 received GnRH agonist and 24 received kisspeptin-54 to trigger oocyte maturation. In the kisspeptin-54 group, 12 received one injection of kisseptin-54 (9.6 nmol/kg) and 12 received two injections of kisspeptin-54 at a 10 h interval (9.6 nmol/kg × 2). PARTICIPANTS/MATERIALS, SETTING, METHODS Follicular fluid was aspirated and pooled from follicles during the retrieval of oocytes for IVF/ICSI. GL cells were isolated and either RNA extracted immediately or cultured in vitro ± kisspeptin or hCG. MAIN RESULTS AND THE ROLE OF CHANCE GL cells from women who had received kisspeptin-54 had a 14-fold and 8-fold higher gene expression of FSHR and a 2-fold (ns) and 2.5-fold (P < 0.05) higher expression of LHCGR than GL cells from women who had received hCG or GnRH agonist, respectively. CYP19A1 expression was 3.6-fold (P < 0.05) and 4.5-fold (P < 0.05) higher, STAR expression was 3.4-fold (P < 0.01) and 1.8-fold (P < 0.05) higher, HSD3B2 expression was 7.5- (P < 0.01) and 2.5-fold higher (P < 0.05), INHBA was 2.5-fold (P < 0.01) and 2.5-fold (P < 0.01) higher in GL cells from women who had received kisspeptin-54 than hCG or GnRHa, respectively. ESR1 (P < 0.05) and ESR2 (P < 0.05) both showed 3-fold higher expression in cells from kisspeptin treated than GnRHa treated women. Markers of vascular permeability and oocyte growth factors were unchanged (VEGFA, SERPINF1, CDH5, amphiregulin, epiregulin). Gene expression of kisspeptin receptor was unchanged. Whereas treating GL cells in vitro with hCG induced steroidogenic gene expression, kisspeptin-54 had no significant direct effects on either OHSS genes or steroidogenic genes. LIMITATIONS REASONS FOR CAUTION Most women in the study had PCOS, which may limit applicability to other patient groups. For the analysis of the in vitro effects of kisspeptin-54, it is important to note that GL cells had already been exposed in vivo to an alternate maturation trigger. WIDER IMPLICATIONS OF THE FINDINGS The profile of serum gonadotropins seen with kisspeptin administration compared to other triggers more closely resemble that of the natural cycle as compared with hCG. Thus, kisspeptin could potentially permit an ovarian environment augmented for steroidogenesis, in particular progesterone synthesis, which is required for embryo implantation.

Abstract
STUDY QUESTION Can novel genetic candidates involved in follicle dormancy, activation and integrity be identified from transcriptomic profiles of isolated granulosa cells from human primordial and primary follicles? SUMMARY ANSWER The granulosa cell compartment of the human primordial and primary follicle was extensively enriched in signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) and cAMP-response element binding protein (CREB) signalling, and several other putative signalling pathways that may also be mediators of follicle growth and development were identified. WHAT IS KNOWN ALREADY Mechanistic target of rapamycin kinase (mTOR) signalling and the factors Forkhead Box L2 (FOXL2) and KIT proto-oncogene receptor tyrosine kinase (KITL) may be involved in defining the early steps of mammalian follicular recruitment through complex bidirectional signalling between the oocyte and granulosa cells. cAMP/protein kinase K (PKA)/CREB signalling is a feature of FSH-induced regulation of granulosa cell steroidogenesis that is essential to normal human fertility. STUDY DESIGN, SIZE, DURATION A class comparison study was carried out on primordial follicles (n = 539 follicles) and primary follicles (n = 261) follicles) donated by three women having ovarian tissue cryopreserved before chemotherapy. PARTICIPANTS/MATERIALS, SETTING, METHODS RNA samples from isolates of laser capture micro-dissected oocytes and follicles from the primordial and primary stage, respectively, were sequenced on the HiSeq Illumina platform. Data mapping, quality control, filtering, FPKM (fragments per kilobase of exon per million) normalization and comparisons were performed. The granulosa cell contribution in whole follicle isolates was extracted in silico. Modelling of complex biological systems was performed using Ingenuity Pathway Analysis (IPA). For validation of transcriptomic findings, we performed quantitative RT-PCR of selected candidate genes. Furthermore, we interrogated the in situ localization of selected corresponding proteins using immunofluorescence. MAIN RESULTS AND THE ROLE OF CHANCE Our differentially expressed gene analysis revealed a number of transcripts in the granulosa cells to be significantly down- (736 genes) or up- (294 genes) regulated during the human primordial-to-primary follicle transition. The IPA analysis revealed enriched canonical signalling pathways not previously associated with granulosa cells from human primordial and primary follicles. Immunofluorescent staining of human ovarian tissue explored the intra-ovarian localization of FOG2, and FOXL2, which revealed the presence of forkhead box L2 (FOXL2) in both oocytes and granulosa cells in primary follicles, with a more enriched staining in the granulosa cells in primary follicles. Friend of GATA 2 (FOG2) stained strongly in oocytes in primordial follicles, with a shift towards granulosa cell as follicle stage advanced. LARGE SCALE DATA http://users-birc.au.dk/biopv/published_data/ernst_et_al_GC_2017/. LIMITATIONS REASONS FOR CAUTION This is a descriptive study, and no functional assays were employed. The study was based on a limited number of patients, and it is acknowledged that natural biological variance exists in human samples. Strict filters were applied to accommodate the in silico extraction of the granulosa cell contribution. In support of this, quantitative RT-PCR was used to confirm selected candidate genes, and immunofluorescent staining was employed to interrogate the intra-ovarian distribution of selected corresponding proteins. Moreover, it is unknown whether the primordial follicles analysed represent those still in the resting pool, or those from the cohort that have entered the growing pool. WIDER IMPLICATIONS OF THE FINDINGS We present, for the first time, a detailed description of global gene activity in the human granulosa cell compartment of primordial and primary follicles. These results may be utilized in the development of novel clinical treatment strategies aimed at improving granulosa cell function.

Abstract
STUDY QUESTION Do specific transcriptome dynamics in human oocytes from primordial and primary follicles identify novel pathways in oocyte activation? SUMMARY ANSWER The transcriptomic profiles in oocytes from primordial and primary follicles, respectively, revealed several new canonical pathways as putative mediators of oocyte dormancy and activation. WHAT IS KNOWN ALREADY Cellular signaling pathways including PI3K/AKT and AKT/mTOR as well as TGF-β and IGF signaling are known to regulate the primordial-to-primary transition in mammalian follicle development. STUDY DESIGN, SIZE, DURATION We performed a class comparison study on human oocytes from primordial (n = 436) and primary (n = 182) follicles donated by three women having ovarian tissue cryopreserved before chemotherapy. PARTICIPANTS/MATERIALS, SETTING, METHODS RNA was extracted from oocytes from primordial and primary follicles isolated by Laser Capture Microdissection, and submitted to the HiSeq Illumina platform. Data mapping, quality control, filtering and expression analysis were performed using Tophat (2.0.4), Cufflinks (2.0.2), BWA (0.6.2) and software R. Modeling of complex biological systems was performed using the IPA® software. Finally, qPCR and immunohistochemistry were employed to explore expression and localization of selected genes and products in human ovarian tissue. MAIN RESULTS AND THE ROLE OF CHANCE We found 223 and 268 genes down-regulated and up-regulated, respectively, in the oocytes during the human primordial-to-primary follicle transition (P < 0.05 and/or FPKM fold-change >2). IPA® enrichment analysis revealed known pathways ('mTOR Signaling', 'PI3K/AKT Signaling' and 'PTEN Signaling') as well as enriched canonical pathways not previously associated with human ovarian follicle development such as 'ErB Signaling' and 'NGF Signaling' in the down-regulated category and 'Regulation of eIF4 and P70S6K Signaling' and 'HER-2 Signaling in Breast Cancer' in the up-regulated group. Additionally, immunohistochemistry on human ovarian tissue explored the intraovarian localization of VASA, FOXO1 and eIF4E. LARGE SCALE DATA http://users-birc.au.dk/biopv/published_data/ernst_2017/. LIMITATIONS, REASONS FOR CAUTION This is a descriptive analysis and no functional studies were performed. The study was based on a limited number of patients and the experimental design could not take into account the natural biological variance in human samples. Therefore, qPCR was used to confirm selected genes alongside immunohistochemical stainings. WIDER IMPLICATIONS OF THE FINDINGS This study shows, for the first time, a detailed molecular description of global gene transcription activities in oocytes from primordial and primary follicles, respectively. Knowing the global transcription profiles of human oocyte dormancy and activation are important in developing new clinical applications.

Abstract
Purpose To evaluate intellectual functioning and the implications of limiting radiation exposure in the four biologically distinct subgroups of medulloblastoma: wingless (WNT), sonic hedgehog (SHH), Group 3, and Group 4. Patients and Methods A total of 121 patients with medulloblastoma (n = 51, Group 4; n = 25, Group 3; n = 28, SHH; and n = 17, WNT), who were treated between 1991 and 2013 at the Hospital for Sick Children (Toronto, Ontario, Canada), Children’s National Health System (Washington, DC), or the Lucile Packard Children’s Hospital (Palo Alto, CA), had intellectual assessments. First, we compared intellectual trajectories between subgroups. Next, we evaluated the effect of treatment with reduced-dose craniospinal irradiation (CSI) plus a tumor bed boost versus treatments that deliver higher CSI doses and/or larger boost volumes to the brain (all other treatments) within subgroups. Linear mixed modeling was used to determine the stability or change in intelligence scores over time. Results Intellectual outcomes declined comparably in each subgroup except for processing speed; SHH declined less than Group 3 ( P = .04). SHH had the lowest incidence of cerebellar mutism and motor deficits. Treatment with reduced-dose CSI plus a tumor bed boost was associated with preserved intellectual functioning in WNT and Group 4 patients considered together (ie, subgroups containing patients who are candidates for therapy de-escalation), and not in Group 3 or SHH. Across all subgroups, patients in the all other treatments group declined over time (all P < .05). Conclusion SHH patients appear to have the most distinct functional (ie, motor deficits and mutism) outcomes and a unique processing speed trajectory. Only WNT and Group 4 patients seem to benefit from limiting radiation exposure. Our findings highlight the value of conducting subgroup-specific analyses, and can be used to inform novel biologically based treatment protocols for patients with medulloblastoma.

Abstract
Epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is physiological in embryogenesis and wound healing but also associated with the formation of cancer stem cells (CSCs). Many EMT signaling pathways are implicated in CSC formation, but the precise underlying mechanisms of CSC formation remain elusive. We have previously demonstrated that PKC is critical for EMT induction and CSC formation in inducible breast EMT/CSC models. Here, we used formaldehyde-assisted isolation of regulatory elements-sequencing (FAIRE-seq) to investigate DNA accessibility changes after PKC activation and determine how they influence EMT and CSC formation. During EMT, DNA accessibility principally increased in regions distant from transcription start sites, low in CpG content, and enriched with chromatin enhancer marks. ChIP-sequencing revealed that a subset of these regions changed from poised to active enhancers upon stimulation, with some even more acteylated in CSCs. While regions with increased accessibility were enriched for FOX, AP-1, TEAD, and TFAP2 motifs, those containing FOX and AP-1 motif were associated with increased expression of CSC-associated genes, while those with TFAP2 were associated with genes with increased expression in non-CSCs. Silencing of 2 members of the FOX family, FOXN2 and FOXQ1, repressed CSCs and the mesenchymal phenotype and inhibited the CSC gene signature. These novel, PKC-induced DNA accessibility regions help explain how the epigenomic plasticity of cells undergoing EMT leads to CSC gene activation.

Abstract
NUT midline carcinoma (NMC) is a fatal cancer that arises in various tissues along the upper midline of the body. The defining molecular feature of NMC is a chromosomal translocation that joins (in the majority of cases) the nuclear testis gene NUT (NUTM1) to the bromodomain protein family member 4 (BRD4) and thereby creating a fusion oncogene that disrupts cellular differentiation and drives the disease. In this study, we report the case of an adolescent NMC patient presenting with severe facial pain, proptosis and visual impairment due to a mass arising from the ethmoid sinus that invaded the right orbit and frontal lobe. Treatment involved radical resection, including exenteration of the affected eye with the view to consolidate treatment with radiation therapy; however, the patient experienced rapid tumor progression and passed away 79 days post resection. Molecular analysis of the tumor tissue identified a novel in-frame BRD4-NUT transcript, with BRD4 exon 15 fused to the last 124 nucleotides of NUT exon 2 (BRD4-NUT ex15:ex2Δnt1–585). The partial deletion of NUT exon 2 was attributed to a mid-exonic genomic breakpoint and the subsequent activation of a cryptic splice site further downstream within the exon. Inhibition of the canonical 3′ acceptor splice site of NUT intron 1 in cell lines expressing the most common NMC fusion transcripts (PER-403, BRD4-NUT ex11:ex2; PER-624, BRD4-NUT ex15:ex2) induced alternative splicing from the same cryptic splice site as identified in the patient. Detection of low levels of an in-frame BRD4-NUT ex11:ex2Δnt1–585 transcript in PER-403 confirmed endogenous splicing from this alternative exon 2 splice site. Although further studies are necessary to assess the clinical relevance of the increasing number of variant fusions described in NMC, the findings presented in this case identify alternative splicing as a mechanism that contributes to this pathogenic complexity.

Abstract
The acute abdomen is a common condition in older people. Half of all presentations to hospital require admission, with a third requiring immediate surgery. The Royal College of Surgeons of England have reported a worryingly high mortality rate in the over 80s undergoing emergency surgery, with a 3-fold difference in mortality throughout the England, Wales and Northern Ireland. The aim of this article is to highlight the issues that older people face in relation to acute abdominal pathology.

Abstract
High precision measurements of the differential cross sections for π0 photoproduction at forward angles for two nuclei, 12C and 208Pb, have been performed for incident photon energies of 4.9-5.5 GeV to extract the π0→γγ decay width. The experiment was done at Jefferson Lab using the Hall B photon tagger and a high-resolution multichannel calorimeter. The π0→γγ decay width was extracted by fitting the measured cross sections using recently updated theoretical models for the process. The resulting value for the decay width is Γ(π0→γγ)=7.82±0.14(stat)±0.17(syst) eV. With the 2.8% total uncertainty, this result is a factor of 2.5 more precise than the current Particle Data Group average of this fundamental quantity, and it is consistent with current theoretical predictions.
