Abstract
Background Ibrutinib, idelalisib, and venetoclax are approved for treating CLL patients in the United States. However, there is no guidance as to their optimal sequence. Patients and methods We conducted a multicenter, retrospective analysis of CLL patients treated with kinase inhibitors (KIs) or venetoclax. We examined demographics, discontinuation reasons, overall response rates (ORR), survival, and post-KI salvage strategies. Primary endpoint was progression-free survival (PFS). Results A total of 683 patients were identified. Baseline characteristics were similar in the ibrutinib and idelalisib groups. ORR to ibrutinib and idelalisib as first KI was 69% and 81%, respectively. With a median follow-up of 17 months (range 1-60), median PFS and OS for the entire cohort were 35 months and not reached. Patients treated with ibrutinib (versus idelalisib) as first KI had a significantly better PFS in all settings; front-line [hazard ratios (HR) 2.8, CI 1.3-6.3, P = 0.01], relapsed-refractory (HR 2.8, CI 1.9-4.1, P < 0.001), del17p (HR 2.0, CI 1.2-3.4, P = 0.008), and complex karyotype (HR 2.5, CI 1.2-5.2, P = 0.02). At the time of initial KI failure, use of an alternate KI or venetoclax had a superior PFS when compared with chemoimmunotherapy. Furthermore, patients who discontinued ibrutinib due to progression or toxicity had marginally improved outcomes if they received venetoclax (ORR 79%) versus idelalisib (ORR 46%) (PFS HR .6, CI.3-1.0, P = 0.06). Conclusions In the largest real-world experience of novel agents in CLL, ibrutinib appears superior to idelalisib as first KI. Furthermore, in the setting of KI failure, alternate KI or venetoclax therapy appear superior to chemoimmunotherapy combinations. The use of venetoclax upon ibrutinib failure might be superior to idelalisib. These data support the need for trials testing sequencing strategies to optimize treatment algorithms.

Abstract
The aim of this prospective cohort study is to analyze the impact of supplemental home enteral nutrition (HEN) post-esophageal cancer surgery on nutritional parameters, quality of life (QL), and patient satisfaction. A systematic review reported that over 60% of patients lose >10% of both body weight and BMI by 6 months after esophagectomy. Enteral feeding (EF) is increasingly a modern standard postoperatively; however, the impact of extended HEN postdischarge has not been systematically studied. One hundred forty-nine consecutive patients [mean age 62 ± 9, 80% male,76% adenocarcinoma, 66% on multimodal protocols, and 69% with BMI ≥ 25 kg/m2] were studied. Jejunal EF commenced day 1 postoperatively, and supplemental overnight HEN (764 kcal; 32g protein) continued on discharge for a planned further 4 weeks. Weight, BMI, and body composition analysis (bioimpedance analysis) were measured at baseline, preoperatively and at 1, 3, and 6 months, along with the EORTC QLQ-C30/OES18 QL measures. A patient satisfaction questionnaire addressed eight key items in relation to HEN (max score 100/item). Median (range) total duration of EF was 49 days (28-96). Overall compliance was 96%. At 6 months, compared with preoperatively, 58 (39%) patients lost >10% weight, with median (IQR) loss of 6.8 (4-9) kg, and 62 (41%) patients lost >10% BMI. Lean body mass and body fat were significantly (p < 0.001) decreased. Mean global QL decreased (p < 0.01) from 82 to 72. A high mean satisfaction score (>70 ± 11/100) was reported, >80 for practical training, activities of daily living, pain, anxiety, recovery and impact on caregivers, with lower scores for appetite (33 ± 24) and sleep (63 ± 30). Supplemental HEN for a minimum of one month postdischarge is associated with high compliance and patient satisfaction. Weight and BMI loss may still be substantial, however this may be less than published literature, in addition the impact on HR-QL may be attenuated. HEN has both subjective and objective rationale and merits further validation toward optimizing nutritional recovery and overall wellbeing.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Acute exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD) are an important cause of acute hospital admissions and incur significant costs, which include antibiotic costs. AIMS This study aimed to (i) define antibiotic prescribing practice in patients admitted to a tertiary hospital with AECOPD and compare this with current locally and nationally recognised antibiotic prescribing guidelines and (ii) correlate variations in guideline-concordant antibiotic prescribing with mean length of stay (LOS) and rates of unplanned readmission to hospital. METHODS Retrospective case series of 84 consecutive patients with uncomplicated AECOPD who met pre-specified selection criteria. RESULTS Seventy-two of 84 participants (85.7%) received guideline-discordant antibiotics, of whom the majority (76%) received intravenous antibiotics. Mean LOS was significantly lower among patients receiving guideline-concordant therapy compared with those receiving guideline-discordant therapy (mean 1.6 days vs 3.7 days; P = 0.002). There was no significant difference between groups in rates of readmission. Estimated excess costs per patient associated with guideline-discordant therapy equalled $2642 which, if eliminated, would save approximately $300 000 per annum. CONCLUSION In a tertiary hospital, Australian guidelines for treating patients with an AECOPD were rarely followed. The use of guideline-discordant therapy resulted in longer hospital stays and incurred greater costs. Studies are required to determine the reasons behind such discordant practice and to develop initiatives to improve antibiotic prescribing.

Abstract
AIMS To determine whether appropriate dosage adjustments are made in patients with significant renal impairment for drugs with a high fractional renal clearance. METHODS Evaluation of dosage adjustment was performed in patients who were admitted to a 480-bed metropolitan hospital (Princess Alexandra Hospital, Brisbane, Australia) with an estimated creatinine clearance of < or =40 mL/min. All drugs had a high fractional renal excretion. A prescribed dose within 30% of the calculated dose was considered appropriate. RESULTS Doses were found to be inappropriately high in 111 (44.8%) of 248 admission prescriptions of the targeted drugs. Doses were appropriately reduced in hospital in 26 patients (23.4%). Seventy-three (29.3%) prescriptions were continued with excessive doses. Only 34 prescriptions for the target drugs were initiated in hospital, of which 88.2% were appropriately dosed. CONCLUSIONS A significant percentage of patients with renal impairment are admitted to hospital on inappropriately high doses of drugs, with a high fractional renal excretion and low therapeutic index. Doses are appropriately reduced in hospital in some patients but there is still room for improvement [corrected].

Abstract
An active microwave imaging system for non-invasive temperature sensing has been developed and evaluated. The system is designed to assess biological tissues undergoing thermal therapy. This paper presents results that demonstrate the imaging capabilities of the microwave method using simulated and experimental phantom materials. Results from both numerical studies and laboratory experiments have been analysed and are presented. The imaging system uses a 16 channel fixed monopole array transceiver unit operating over a bandwidth of 300-900 MHz. The annular array diameter is 14.75 cm and is immersed in a 0.9% saline solution. Standard heterodyning principles are used for signal detection leading to a dynamic range of the system of better than 115dB. Image formation is accomplished with a 2-D finite element based, near-field iterative technique. This allows the simultaneous reconstruction of both the real and imaginary components of the dielectric property distribution in tissue equivalent phantoms. Data acquisition currently captures 144 complex field measurements per image. Image reconstruction requires approximately 2 min per iteration with a typical convergence in less than 10 steps. Experiments performed to evaluate the temperature dependence of biological phantoms (saline with variable salt concentrations) are described. The numerical accuracy and precision of the reconstruction algorithm based upon these phantom studies are presented. Simple laboratory models of localized hyperthermia have been used to evaluate the experimental accuracy and precision of the imaging system. A numerical precision of 0.02 degrees C and an accuracy of 0.37 degrees C have been observed with the current algorithm. In laboratory experiments, images have been reconstructed at different target temperatures and target saline concentrations. The effect of placing high contrast biological phantoms (i.e. bone/fat simulants) along with the heated objects have also been studied. Localized heating of the biological phantom is achieved by pumping a saline solution of pre-selected concentration through enclosed ends of hollow dielectric cylinders having approximately 5cm inner diameter and 4 mm wall thickness. The temperature of the heated zone is preset and maintained to +/-0.2 degrees C by an external heater and circulator. The results currently show that a maximum temperature precision of 0.98 degrees C and maximum relative accuracy of 0.56 degrees C has been achieved in the laboratory using the current generation of the prototype system.

Abstract
Clinical outcome in ovarian carcinoma is predicted by progesterone receptor status, indicating an endocrine aspect to this disease. Peripheral leucocyte genomic DNAs were obtained from 41 patients with primary ovarian carcinoma and 83 controls from Ireland, as well as from 26 primary ovarian carcinoma patients and 101 controls in Germany. Southern analysis using a human progesterone receptor (hPR) cDNA probe identified a germline TaqI restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) defined by two alleles: T1, represented by a 2.7 kb fragment; and T2, represented by a 1.9 kb fragment and characterised by an additional TaqI restriction site with respect to T1. An over-representation of T2 in ovarian cancer patients compared with controls in the pooled Irish/German population (P < 0.025) was observed. A difference (P < 0.02) in the distribution of the RFLP genotypes between Irish and German control populations was also observed. The allele distributions could not be shown to differ significantly from Hardy-Weinberg distribution in any subgroup. Using hPR cDNA region-specific probes, the extra TaqI restriction site was mapped to intron G of the hPR gene.

Abstract
This paper reports of recurrent themes of concern about AIDS expressed by health care professionals participating in small group sessions. Three dominant themes emerged: fear of contagion, homophobia, and attachment and loss. For each of these themes the possible meanings are explored. Fear of contagion was the dominant theme and is discussed as both a possible expression of displaced homophobia and a 'catastrophic' risk factor (extreme negative consequence). The need of health care professionals to see themselves as 'different' from the person with AIDS is also discussed. Professionals also discussed the emotional burden of caring for young patients often similar in age to themselves. It is suggested that hospital policy makers need to accept the reality of staff concerns and provide adequate forums for expression of concerns since without an opportunity for thoughtful discussion, health care professionals may espouse the 'correct' position and attitude, but believe and practise something else.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to develop an educational package for health care providers. Findings from a survey conducted by investigators were used to direct intervention content. All subjects received a 1 hour educational package. Since this type of intervention was not expected to be sufficient to modify attitudes and concerns, 75% of the subjects received an additional 1 hour group discussion intervention (n = 118). In a subgroup of those receiving group interventions, the discussion was preceded by the presence of a person with AIDS (PWA) (in person or on video) discussing his personal experience with the illness and health care workers. It was demonstrated that in order to modify change attitudes, concerns, and affective response, groups were necessary. Furthermore, fear of risk of contagion and homophobia required the presence of a PWA (in person or on video) in order for change to occur.

Abstract
Nurses' fear of contagion when caring for persons with AIDS remains high despite increased levels of knowledge. This paper examines the multiple factors that contribute to nurses' perception of risk within the workplace. The authors suggests that constructs from theories such as decision making, psychoanalysis and cognitive psychology can provide insight into the assessment of risk. Findings from a recent survey of nurses are used to illustrate the complex nature of fear of contagion. Understanding this complexity may be an essential first step in order to provide opportunities for resolution of fears and modification of behaviors.

Abstract
Staff from 3 Toronto hospitals were surveyed for knowledge, attitudes and concerns about AIDS. 70% of the 1,366 respondents had direct clinical experience with persons with AIDS. Data were analyzed according to hospital setting and professional group: physicians, nurses, technologists and supervisory staff. No setting difference was observed and although statistically significant differences (at the .001 level) were observed between professional groups, these differences are small and have little practical importance. In general, subjects answered 68% of the knowledge questions correctly. All attitudes and concerns were inversely associated to knowledge (Pearson r range was -.31 to -.20). Multivariate analysis demonstrated that knowledge and concern about contagion are important mediating variables (multiple r = .40) for other attitudes and concerns.

Abstract
Testing saliva for the detection of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) antibodies has many potential advantages for epidemiologic surveillance. A commercial ELISA kit and a standardized in-house immunoblot (IB) system were slightly modified to enhance antibody detection in saliva. Frozen saliva specimens from Toronto Sexual Contact Study participants (including sequential saliva specimens collected during seroconversion) were tested as were fresh saliva samples collected from a population of street-based intravenous drug users (IVDUs). HIV antibody results on saliva were compared with HIV serostatus determined by ELISA and IB on serum or dried blood spots. The overall sensitivity was 98.3% (117/119) for the kit and 99.2% (118/119) for IB; the specificity was 100% (429/429). In the IVDU population, compliance in the voluntary submission of specimens increased from 69% agreeing to provide blood samples to 89% agreeing to provide blood, saliva, or both. Saliva specimens can be easily collected under difficult field conditions with minimal training and provide a valuable alternative to testing blood for HIV-seroprevalence studies.

Abstract
Seventeen AIDS patients were enrolled in a prospective open-label dose-finding study of octreotide (Sandostatin) therapy for refractory diarrhea. Five were nonevaluable due to progression of AIDS symptomatology, and one was excluded because of lack of confirmation of HIV infection. Five of 11 evaluable patients responded to therapy (45%); two each at 50 micrograms and 100 micrograms, and one at 250 micrograms thrice daily doses. A sixth patient demonstrated a moderate reduction in stool volume at 250 micrograms thrice daily, which, although deemed clinically relevant, did not meet the criteria for response. On discontinuation of therapy, diarrhea recurred in all patients within 1-12 days, and responded to reinitiation of octreotide in those five patients who resumed treatment. Only one of the three patients with concurrent cryptosporidial infection responded to treatment. The drug was well tolerated, with mild symptomatology in three patients. Long-term treatment at a stable dose was effective in three of five treated patients for periods for seven months in one (moderate responder) and one year in two. One patient required dose increases to control symptoms, but after one year of treatment developed severe nausea following injections, which required dose cessation. One patient had partial control of his diarrhea for only three months despite two dose increases. These data suggest that octreotide may be of useful therapeutic value in HIV-associated diarrhea and that further studies are indicated.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to assess the type and frequency of rheumatologic manifestations among patients followed at an HIV clinic in a general hospital, and to evaluate the usefulness of a questionnaire in identifying the presence of these manifestations. Fifty-two consecutive patients with HIV infection completed a questionnaire regarding the presence of rheumatologic symptoms. All patients were interviewed and examined for the prevalence and spectrum of musculoskeletal manifestations. The questionnaire was found to be sensitive in identifying patients with rheumatologic manifestations which were detected on clinical examination. The latter were found in 34 patients (65.3%). Twenty-one patients (40.3%) had arthralgias, 8 (15.2%) had spondyloarthropathies (including Reiter's syndrome, psoriatic arthritis and undifferentiated spondyloarthropathy). Two patients (3.8%) had oligoarthritis and one case each had myositis, Sjögren's syndrome and Behçet's syndrome. Muscle pain was common, occurring in 35% of the patients, and it was related to the use of zidovudine therapy. In contrast to previous reports, most of the patients with arthritis had mild disease, responding promptly to non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. This difference may be explained by the use of zidovudine therapy, stage of HIV infection, and lifestyle. A questionnaire may be helpful in identifying the prevalence of rheumatologic manifestations in HIV-infected subjects.

Abstract
To characterize the nature, time course and dose dependency of zidovudine-related side effects, we undertook a multicenter, prospective, dose-range finding study. Our study group consisted of 74 HIV-positive homosexual men belonging to groups II B, III and IV C2 from the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) classification of HIV disease. Following a 3-week observation period, volunteers were treated with zidovudine 600 mg/day for 18 weeks, 900 mg/day for 9 weeks and 1200 mg/day for 9 weeks, followed by a washout period of 6 weeks after which they were re-started on 1200 mg/day or the highest tolerated dose at 8-hourly intervals. Subjects were randomly assigned to 4-hourly or 8-hourly regimens within CDC groups while taking 600 and 1200 mg/day. Clinical and laboratory evaluations were performed at 3-week intervals. Symptomatic adverse effects were present in 96% of subjects, most commonly nausea (64%), fatigue (55%) and headache (49%). These were generally self-limited, reappearing briefly at each dose increment. A decrease in hemoglobin occurred shortly after initiation of therapy. This was not dose dependent and reversed rapidly upon discontinuation of treatment. A red blood cell count decrease, a mean cell volume increase and a granulocyte count decrease developed early in a dose-independent fashion, reverting at least partially during the washout phase. The decrease in reticulocyte count was dose related between 600 and 900 mg/day with no further change when the dose was escalated to 1200 mg/day. Bone marrow changes occurred rapidly as demonstrated by megaloblastosis in 95% of 65 specimens at week 18.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
We determined whether drug-resistant variants of HIV-1 could be isolated from the peripheral blood mononuclear cells of 20 individuals with HIV infection (Centers for Disease Control groups II and III) on long-term zidovudine (AZT) therapy. Toward this end, zidovudine (10 microM) has been included in the tissue culture medium used to isolate HIV-1. Under these circumstances, virus with a zidovudine-resistant phenotype was successfully obtained in five out of 20 cases. This property of drug resistance appeared to be stable, and did not disappear upon extended replication of such virus in the absence of drug pressure. Drug-resistant virus could also be isolated from these subjects on subsequent occasions, but was not present in samples obtained prior to therapy. Replication of these zidovudine-resistant isolates in tissue culture was inhibited by each of four other nucleoside analogues. Thus, other drugs may be useful in controlling selective zidovudine-resistant variants of HIV-1.

Abstract
A 7-year-old child was admitted to Toronto's Hospital for Sick Children in 1976 with symptoms and laboratory findings compatible with visceral larva migrans, a disease usually caused by Toxocara canis. This prompted a search for other cases seen at the hospital during the period 1952 through 1978. Only 18 cases were discovered that met at least three of six criteria and thus were considered possible or probably cases of the disease. Three possible cases of ocular toxocariasis during the same period were also uncovered. Fever was the commonest presenting symptom. Eosinophilia, leukocytosis and hyperglobulinemia were the most frequent laboratory findings. In view of the small number of cases found in 27 years at this large pediatric hospital with a broad referral base, it is concluded that visceral larva migrans poses little risk to the health of children in the Toronto area.
