Abstract
OBJECTIVE Hemorrhage is the leading cause of preventable death in civilian trauma centers and on the battlefield. One of the emerging treatment options for hemorrhage in austere environments is tranexamic acid (TXA). However, the landscape is not amenable to the current delivery standard. This study compared the pharmacokinetics of TXA via a standard 10-minute intravenous infusion (IV infusion), intravenous rapid push over 10 s (IV push), and intramuscular injection (IM) in a swine polytrauma and hemorrhagic shock model (trauma group) compared to uninjured controls (control group). METHODS Thirty swine were randomized to the trauma or control group. Following anesthesia, the trauma group experienced a simulated blast injury and 40% controlled hemorrhage. Subjects in both groups were then randomized to receive 1 g/10 mL TXA via IV infusion, IV push, or IM. Animals were monitored for four hours with serial blood sampling. Serum TXA concentrations were measured by liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) and analyzed. RESULTS The time to maximum TXA concentration (Tmax) was not affected by trauma in IV infusion or IV push, but was affected in the IM administration with Tmax significantly slower than the control group (p = 0.016). The minimum effective serum concentration of TXA (Ceff, 10 µg/mL) was reached in less than one minute with IV infusion and instantaneously with IV push. Despite lower bioavailability, the time to reach Ceff (Teff) was achieved via IM administration in less than 10 minutes for both groups (6.4 minutes trauma vs. 2.1 minutes control). CONCLUSIONS In austere prehospital environments, an alternative to intravenous infusion of a life-saving medication is desired. Administration of TXA via all three methods reached the level needed to cause substantial inhibition of fibrinolysis within 10 minutes. The IV push method showed similar pharmacokinetics to IV infusion of TXA but can be delivered quickly without sacrificing an access site for 10 minutes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Empty pelvis syndrome (EPS) is a significant source of morbidity following pelvic exenteration (PE), but is undefined. EPS outcome reporting and descriptors of radicality of PE are inconsistent; therefore, the best approaches for prevention are unknown. To facilitate future research into EPS, the aim of this study is to define a measurable core outcome set, core descriptor set and written definition for EPS. Consensus on strategies to mitigate EPS was also explored. METHOD Three-stage consensus methodology was used: longlisting with systematic review, healthcare professional event, patient engagement, and Delphi-piloting; shortlisting with two rounds of modified Delphi; and a confirmatory stage using a modified nominal group technique. This included a selection of measurement instruments, and iterative generation of a written EPS definition. RESULTS One hundred and three and 119 participants took part in the modified Delphi and consensus meetings, respectively. This encompassed international patient and healthcare professional representation with multidisciplinary input. Seventy statements were longlisted, seven core outcomes (bowel obstruction, enteroperineal fistula, chronic perineal sinus, infected pelvic collection, bowel obstruction, morbidity from reconstruction, re-intervention, and quality of life), and four core descriptors (magnitude of surgery, radiotherapy-induced damage, methods of reconstruction, and changes in volume of pelvic dead space) reached consensus-where applicable, measurement of these outcomes and descriptors was defined. A written definition for EPS was agreed. CONCLUSIONS EPS is an area of unmet research and clinical need. This study provides an agreed definition and core data set for EPS to facilitate further research.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) Radiation to large breast volumes (BV) has been associated with increased dose inhomogeneities, breast fibrosis, and induration. Radiation exposure to the heart during breast radiotherapy has been associated with late cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. This study, therefore, investigates the impact of BV on achieving optimal lumpectomy cavity target coverage (V95% [%] >95) while maintaining mean heart dose constraints (MHD, mean [Gy] <1) across a range of BV from patients enrolled in a statewide consortium. MATERIALS/METHODS A retrospective analysis was conducted for 2,506 patients receiving left-sided whole breast moderately-hypofractionated (2.5-2.8 Gy/fx) radiotherapy without nodal fields between 2018-2022. The BV was calculated for each patient from contours in the treatment planning system, and the volume distribution partitioned into quartiles. Dosimetric parameters were calculated from dose-volume histograms. The percentage of patients in which the metrics were achieved was calculated for each BV quartile for different treatment positions: all positions, supine, supine with breathing motion management, and prone. RESULTS The BV ranges within the quartiles (∼620 patients/quartile) were ≤720.0 cc, 720.1 to ≤1065.0 cc, 1065.1 to ≤1500.0 cc, and >1500.0 cc for quartiles Q1-Q4, respectively. Of the 2,506 patients, 76% were treated supine (of which 41.6% were treated using breathing motion management techniques), 23.5% were treated prone, and 0.5% were treated decubitus. Discrete percentages of patients able to meet the metrics are provided in the table. An increase in BV from Q1 to Q4 correlated with lower percentages of patients meeting the MHD metric, however no correlation was observed between BV and target coverage. Treating supine with breathing motion management resulted in a higher percentage of patients meeting the MHD metric (odds ratio (OR) = 1.96 relative to supine without motion management, p<0.0001), while the prone setup proved to be the superior technique across all quartiles (OR = 3.95 relative to supine, p<0.0001). CONCLUSION Increasing BVs resulted in lower percentages of patients receiving MHD≤1 Gy. Thus, cardiac sparing may be more difficult to achieve in patients with larger BV. Utilization of alternate treatment positions, such as supine with breathing motion management and prone, greatly improved the percentage of patients able to meet the MHD metric without sacrificing target coverage in all quartiles. Prone positioning was the technique least susceptible to BV effects in meeting the MHD≤1 Gy goal.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The practice of inguinal hernia repair varies internationally. The global practice of inguinal hernia repair study (GLACIER) aimed to capture these variations in open, laparoscopic, and robotic inguinal hernia repair. METHODS A questionnaire-based survey was created on a web-based platform, and the link was shared on various social media platforms, personal e-mail network of authors, and e-mails to members of the endorsed organisations, which include British Hernia Society (BHS), The Upper Gastrointestinal Surgical Society (TUGSS), and Abdominal Core Health Quality Collaborative (ACHQC). RESULTS A total of 1014 surgeons from 81 countries completed the survey. Open and laparoscopic approaches were preferred by 43% and 47% of participants, respectively. Transabdominal pre-peritoneal repair (TAPP) was the favoured minimally invasive approach. Bilateral and recurrent hernia following previous open repair were the most common indications for a minimally invasive procedure. Ninety-eight percent of the surgeons preferred repair with a mesh, and synthetic monofilament lightweight mesh with large pores was the most common choice. Lichtenstein repair was the most favoured open mesh repair technique (90%), while Shouldice repair was the favoured non-mesh repair technique. The risk of chronic groin pain was quoted as 5% after open repair and 1% after minimally invasive repair. Only 10% of surgeons preferred to perform an open repair using local anaesthesia. CONCLUSION This survey identified similarities and variations in practice internationally and some discrepancies in inguinal hernia repair compared to best practice guidelines, such as low rates of repair using local anaesthesia and the use of lightweight mesh for minimally invasive repair. It also identifies several key areas for future research, such as incidence, risk factors, and management of chronic groin pain after hernia surgery and the clinical and cost-effectiveness of robotic hernia surgery.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, agencies and organizations required trainings to support the needs of the public health workforce. To better understand the training resources available, this study identified, organized, and classified infection prevention and control (IPC) training and educational opportunities. STUDY DESIGN Environmental scan. METHODS A total of 306 IPC training resources were compiled between January and April 2021. Key themes and topics were identified and compared to the Healthcare Infection Control Practices Advisory Committee's (HICPAC) core IPC practices. RESULTS Three hundred and six training resources, including webinars, fact sheets, module-based learning activities, infographics, and professional practice guidance materials, were identified. Common themes included proper use of personal protective equipment (e.g., masks, gloves), community reopening guidance, and mass vaccination resources. A large proportion (74.9%) of trainings were under 60 min. Using the HICPAC framework, the most frequently addressed content included standard precautions (40%), leadership support (31.6%), and transmission-based precautions (25.8%). Few trainings addressed performance monitoring and feedback (17.1%). CONCLUSIONS A wide range of organizations developed IPC-specific content during the pandemic. However, these resources did not address the breadth of knowledge required to implement IPC concepts effectively. The creation of universally applicable IPC core competencies and the development of high-quality IPC education and trainings for public health and the overall responder workforces should be prioritized. Accessible high-quality online and just-in-time trainings are critical for future pandemic and disaster preparedness.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Frailty is a multidimensional state of increased vulnerability. Frail patients are at increased risk for poor surgical outcomes. Prior research demonstrates that rehabilitation strategies deployed after surgery improve outcomes by building strength. OBJECTIVES Examine the feasibility and impact of a novel, multi-faceted prehabilitation intervention for frail patients before surgery. DESIGN Single arm clinical trial. SETTING Veterans Affairs hospital. PARTICIPANTS Patients preparing for major abdominal, urological, thoracic, or cardiac surgery with frailty identified as a Risk Analysis Index≥30. INTERVENTION Prehabilitation started in a supervised setting to establish safety and then transitioned to home-based exercise with weekly telephone coaching by exercise physiologists. Prehabilitation included (a)strength and coordination training; (b)respiratory muscle training (IMT); (c)aerobic conditioning; and (d)nutritional coaching and supplementation. Prehabilitation length was tailored to the 4-6 week time lag typically preceding each participant's normally scheduled surgery. MEASUREMENTS Functional performance and patient surveys were assessed at baseline, every other week during prehabilitation, and then 30 and 90 days after surgery. Within-person changes were estimated using linear mixed models. RESULTS 43 patients completed baseline assessments; 36(84%) completed a median 5(range 3-10) weeks of prehabilitation before surgery; 32(74%) were retained through 90-day follow-up. Baseline function was relatively low. Exercise logs show participants completed 94% of supervised exercise, 78% of prescribed IMT and 74% of home-based exercise. Between baseline and day of surgery, timed-up-and-go decreased 2.3 seconds, gait speed increased 0.1 meters/second, six-minute walk test increased 41.7 meters, and the time to complete 5 chair rises decreased 1.6 seconds(all P≤0.007). Maximum and mean inspiratory and expiratory pressures increased 4.5, 7.3, 14.1 and 13.5 centimeters of water, respectively(all P≤0.041). CONCLUSIONS Prehabilitation is feasible before major surgery and achieves clinically meaningful improvements in functional performance that may impact postoperative outcomes and recovery. These data support rationale for a larger trial powered to detect differences in postoperative outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The optimal anastomotic techniques in esophagectomy to minimize rates of anastomotic leakage and conduit necrosis are not known. The aim of this study was to assess whether the anastomotic technique was associated with anastomotic failure after esophagectomy in the international Oesophago-Gastric Anastomosis Audit cohort. METHODS This prospective observational multicenter cohort study included patients undergoing esophagectomy for esophageal cancer over 9 months during 2018. The primary exposure was the anastomotic technique, classified as handsewn, linear stapled, or circular stapled. The primary outcome was anastomotic failure, namely a composite of anastomotic leakage and conduit necrosis, as defined by the Esophageal Complications Consensus Group. Multivariable logistic regression modeling was used to identify the association between anastomotic techniques and anastomotic failure, after adjustment for confounders. RESULTS Of the 2238 esophagectomies, the anastomosis was handsewn in 27.1%, linear stapled in 21.0%, and circular stapled in 51.9%. Anastomotic techniques differed significantly by the anastomosis sites (P < .001), with the majority of neck anastomoses being handsewn (69.9%), whereas most chest anastomoses were stapled (66.3% circular stapled and 19.3% linear stapled). Rates of anastomotic failure differed significantly among the anastomotic techniques (P < .001), from 19.3% in handsewn anastomoses, to 14.0% in linear stapled anastomoses, and 12.1% in circular stapled anastomoses. This effect remained significant after adjustment for confounding factors on multivariable analysis, with an odds ratio of 0.63 (95% CI, 0.46-0.86; P = .004) for circular stapled versus handsewn anastomosis. However, subgroup analysis by anastomosis site suggested that this effect was predominantly present in neck anastomoses, with anastomotic failure rates of 23.2% versus 14.6% versus 5.9% for handsewn versus linear stapled anastomoses versus circular stapled neck anastomoses, compared with 13.7% versus 13.8% versus 12.2% for chest anastomoses. CONCLUSIONS Handsewn anastomoses appear to be independently associated with higher rates of anastomotic failure compared with stapled anastomoses. However, this effect seems to be largely confined to neck anastomoses, with minimal differences between techniques observed for chest anastomoses. Further research into standardization of anastomotic approach and techniques may further improve outcomes.

Abstract
Aim COVID-19 has led to unprecedented waiting times for elective surgery. Optimising patient pathways is paramount in tackling the backlog. Length of hospital stay (LOS) is an accepted surrogate for successful elective surgery. The aims of our study were: 1) report on changes in LOS after restarting our elective THA service; 2) identify barriers to early discharge, 3) investigate effectiveness of implemented changes. Method A retrospective review of consecutive patients undergoing elective THA, comparing three groups: 1) enhanced care pathway (n=96; 09/2019–12/2019); 2) COVID group (n=56; 03/2021–04/2021); 3) intervention group (n=96; 05/2021–08/2021). Results LOS in the enhanced care pathway group was 2.6 ±2.1 days. During initial resumption of elective operating (COVID group) the LOS was 4.8 ±4.5 days (statistically significant increase; p=0.011). Factors affecting LOS included reduced physiotherapy provision; lack of pre-operative occupational therapy review; loss of educational classes and worse pre-operative functional status. To address these our department employed three new physiotherapists, introduced training for nursing staff and created a post-operative proforma. The LOS subsequently reduced to 3.7 ±4.6days (p=0.166). Subgroup analysis of the intervention group showed age <75 (p<0.001) and ASA1–2 (p=0.036) were associated with reduced LOS (2.1±1.5 days). Other variables analysed did not significantly affect LOS. Conclusions COVID-19 has had a significant effect on LOS, which is still not reversed. For effective resumption of THA services, pre-pandemic enhanced care pathways should be reinstated. With current restrictions preventing face-to-face classes, online educational sessions could be offered. Those younger than 75 years and ASA1–2 are most likely to be discharged without delay.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Stratifying risk of postoperative pulmonary complications after major abdominal surgery allows clinicians to modify risk through targeted interventions and enhanced monitoring. In this study, we aimed to identify and validate prognostic models against a new consensus definition of postoperative pulmonary complications. METHODS We did a systematic review and international external validation cohort study. The systematic review was done in accordance with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines. We searched MEDLINE and Embase on March 1, 2020, for articles published in English that reported on risk prediction models for postoperative pulmonary complications following abdominal surgery. External validation of existing models was done within a prospective international cohort study of adult patients (≥18 years) undergoing major abdominal surgery. Data were collected between Jan 1, 2019, and April 30, 2019, in the UK, Ireland, and Australia. Discriminative ability and prognostic accuracy summary statistics were compared between models for the 30-day postoperative pulmonary complication rate as defined by the Standardised Endpoints in Perioperative Medicine Core Outcome Measures in Perioperative and Anaesthetic Care (StEP-COMPAC). Model performance was compared using the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUROCC). FINDINGS In total, we identified 2903 records from our literature search; of which, 2514 (86·6%) unique records were screened, 121 (4·8%) of 2514 full texts were assessed for eligibility, and 29 unique prognostic models were identified. Nine (31·0%) of 29 models had score development reported only, 19 (65·5%) had undergone internal validation, and only four (13·8%) had been externally validated. Data to validate six eligible models were collected in the international external validation cohort study. Data from 11 591 patients were available, with an overall postoperative pulmonary complication rate of 7·8% (n=903). None of the six models showed good discrimination (defined as AUROCC ≥0·70) for identifying postoperative pulmonary complications, with the Assess Respiratory Risk in Surgical Patients in Catalonia score showing the best discrimination (AUROCC 0·700 [95% CI 0·683-0·717]). INTERPRETATION In the pre-COVID-19 pandemic data, variability in the risk of pulmonary complications (StEP-COMPAC definition) following major abdominal surgery was poorly described by existing prognostication tools. To improve surgical safety during the COVID-19 pandemic recovery and beyond, novel risk stratification tools are required. FUNDING British Journal of Surgery Society.

Abstract
BackgroundPatient Reported Outcomes (PROs) are central to measure how patients feel and function especially when determining the effect of disease modifying agents. In patients with Systemic Sclerosis associated Interstitial Lung Disease (SSc-ILD), dyspnea is the main driver of HAQ decline but the effect of reduced lung function on both generic and specific measures of functional impairment is not well defined, and there are many potential confounding biases that could distort the apparent extent and direction of this relationship. Moreover, collider biases potentially induced by selection into the cohort and in clinical trials can also play a role.ObjectivesTo define within the EUSTAR database, the correlation of Forced Vital Capacity (FVC) and functional impairment PROs and identify potential confounders to be considered in casual inference studies.MethodsA cross-sectional analysis included for each patient with SSc-ILD (by X-ray and/or HRCT) in the EUSTAR registry the last visit with at least one PRO (Health Assessment Questionnaire Disability Index [HAQ-DI], Cochin hand function scale [CHFS] and/or dyspnoea visual analogue scale [VAS]) and % predicted FVC (%pFVC), if available. Patients with LVEF≤50% or pulmonary arterial hypertension at RHC were excluded. SSc-ILD with restricted lung volume was defined as %pFVC≤70 [1]. Spearman’s correlation analysis was performed. Results of this analysis and literature review were integrated to design a directed acyclic graph (DAG) and identify the appropriate confounder adjustment set for the total causal effect of FVC on functional impairment PROs.ResultsAmong 17.338 SSc patients in the EUSTAR registry (extracted in November 2019), 727 SSc-ILD patients fulfilled the inclusion criteria (median %pFVC 90 (IQR 74-104), median %pDLCO 60 (IQR 47-52)). Patients with %pFVC<70 (n=149), as compared to those with %pFVC≥70 (n=578) had worse HAQ-DI, CHFS and VAS-dyspnoea scores (Table 1). In unadjusted analysis, %pFVC showed a weak correlation with HAQ-DI (r=-0.21) and CHFS (r=-0.17), but a stronger correlation with VAS dyspnoea (r=-0.33).Table 1.Results are reported as number/number available (%) for dichotomic variables, or as median (IQR) (n available) for continuous variables.%pFVC≥70 (n=578)%pFVC<70 (n=149)Age at disease onset (years)60.6 (52.3-69.3) (546)52.5 (45.6-63-7) (137)Disease duration (months)134.4 (77.5-212.2) (546)110.3 (66.3-199.7) (137)Male sex84/578 (14.5)32/149 (21.5)Anti-Scl70+231/468 (40.7)81/122 (66.4)Smoker ever52/389 (13.4)17/107 (15.9)Caucasian ethnicity545/569 (95.8)131/145 (90.3)dcSSc167/559 (29.9)74/147 (50.3)Oesophageal symptoms319/571 (55.9)93/147 (63.3)Muscle weakness78/565 (13.8)37/149 (24.8)CRP elevation141/540 (26.1)53/134 (39.6)Elevated sPAP (ECHO)45/456 (9.9)21/121 (17.2)Pericardial effusion2/448 (0.4)4/110 (3.6)Diastolic function abnormality151/431 (35.0)31/102 (30.4)Conduction blocks78/480 (16.3)35/120 (29.2)%pDLCO62 (52-74) (527)42 (35-53) (118)CHFS7 (1-23) (493)16 (2-34.8) (114)HAQ-DI0.63 (0.13-1.13) (578)1.25 (0.38-2) (139)VAS dyspnoea (0-100)15 (10-45) (391)40 (20-70) (109)NYHA stage 3/447/561 (8.4)37/143 (25.9)Subsequently, we created a DAG showing the proposed causal pathway considered relevant to the relationship between FVC and HAQ (Figure 1).ConclusionLung function as measured by FVC appears to correlate with worse patient-reported function in our unadjusted analysis of the large multicentre EUSTAR dataset. However, to estimate the total causal effect we must consider a multitude of potentially confounding factors, which need to be integrated and analysed in a causal inference framework. The proposed DAG will inform the development of simulations of the potential impact of bias (confounding, collider and omitted variable) on effect estimates we could obtain from EUSTAR cohort.References[1]Goh NS, et al.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Textbook outcome has been proposed as a tool for the assessment of oncological surgical care. However, an international assessment in patients undergoing oesophagectomy for oesophageal cancer has not been reported. This study aimed to assess textbook outcome in an international setting.
Methods
Patients undergoing curative resection for oesophageal cancer were identified from the international Oesophagogastric Anastomosis Audit (OGAA) from April 2018 to December 2018. Textbook outcome was defined as the percentage of patients who underwent a complete tumour resection with at least 15 lymph nodes in the resected specimen and an uneventful postoperative course, without hospital readmission. A multivariable binary logistic regression model was used to identify factors independently associated with textbook outcome, and results are presented as odds ratio (OR) and 95 per cent confidence intervals (95 per cent c.i.).
Results
Of 2159 patients with oesophageal cancer, 39.7 per cent achieved a textbook outcome. The outcome parameter ‘no major postoperative complication’ had the greatest negative impact on a textbook outcome for patients with oesophageal cancer, compared to other textbook outcome parameters. Multivariable analysis identified male gender and increasing Charlson comorbidity index with a significantly lower likelihood of textbook outcome. Presence of 24-hour on-call rota for oesophageal surgeons (OR 2.05, 95 per cent c.i. 1.30 to 3.22; P = 0.002) and radiology (OR 1.54, 95 per cent c.i. 1.05 to 2.24; P = 0.027), total minimally invasive oesophagectomies (OR 1.63, 95 per cent c.i. 1.27 to 2.08; P < 0.001), and chest anastomosis above azygous (OR 2.17, 95 per cent c.i. 1.58 to 2.98; P < 0.001) were independently associated with a significantly increased likelihood of textbook outcome.
Conclusion
Textbook outcome is achieved in less than 40 per cent of patients having oesophagectomy for cancer. Improvements in centralization, hospital resources, access to minimal access surgery, and adoption of newer techniques for improving lymph node yield could improve textbook outcome.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Textbook outcome has been proposed as a tool for the assessment of oncological surgical care. However, an international assessment in patients undergoing oesophagectomy for oesophageal cancer has not been reported. This study aimed to assess textbook outcome in an international setting. METHODS Patients undergoing curative resection for oesophageal cancer were identified from the international Oesophagogastric Anastomosis Audit (OGAA) from April 2018 to December 2018. Textbook outcome was defined as the percentage of patients who underwent a complete tumour resection with at least 15 lymph nodes in the resected specimen and an uneventful postoperative course, without hospital readmission. A multivariable binary logistic regression model was used to identify factors independently associated with textbook outcome, and results are presented as odds ratio (OR) and 95 per cent confidence intervals (95 per cent c.i.). RESULTS Of 2159 patients with oesophageal cancer, 39.7 per cent achieved a textbook outcome. The outcome parameter 'no major postoperative complication' had the greatest negative impact on a textbook outcome for patients with oesophageal cancer, compared to other textbook outcome parameters. Multivariable analysis identified male gender and increasing Charlson comorbidity index with a significantly lower likelihood of textbook outcome. Presence of 24-hour on-call rota for oesophageal surgeons (OR 2.05, 95 per cent c.i. 1.30 to 3.22; P = 0.002) and radiology (OR 1.54, 95 per cent c.i. 1.05 to 2.24; P = 0.027), total minimally invasive oesophagectomies (OR 1.63, 95 per cent c.i. 1.27 to 2.08; P < 0.001), and chest anastomosis above azygous (OR 2.17, 95 per cent c.i. 1.58 to 2.98; P < 0.001) were independently associated with a significantly increased likelihood of textbook outcome. CONCLUSION Textbook outcome is achieved in less than 40 per cent of patients having oesophagectomy for cancer. Improvements in centralization, hospital resources, access to minimal access surgery, and adoption of newer techniques for improving lymph node yield could improve textbook outcome.

Abstract
Abstract
Aim
Oesophageal and gastric cancers are the eighth and fifth most prevalent cancers with a high degree of morbidity and mortality. Oesophagogastric resections are associated with a high degree of complications postoperatively. Complications following resection are associated with poorer hospital recovery, recurrence of cancer, readmission to hospital and increased mortality. A study was carried out to examine if there was an association between post-operative bloods and the development of complications.
Method
Data was collected from theatre logbooks, Integrated Clinical Environment (ICE) and clinical portal. Patients undergoing oesophagogastric resection for gastric and oesophageal cancer between October 2010 and November 2014 were included. Complications were organised using the Clavien Dindo classification. Data was analysed using the Student’ T test and Chi-Squared test. A P-value of 0.05 was classed as being statiscally significant.
Results
94 patients met the inclusion criteria for this study. 55 patients (58.5%) underwent Oesophagectomy, 18 (19.1%) total gastrectomy and 21 (22.3%) partial gastrectomy. A significant association was seen between development of complications and higher Day 5 White Cell count (WCC) (p = 0.048), lower Day 2–5 Albumin (Day 2 Albumin p = 0.038) and higher Day 2–5 C Reactive Protein (CRP) (Day 2 CRP p<0.001).
Conclusions
This study suggests Albumin, CRP and WCC may be used to predict postoperative complications in patients undergoing oesophagogastric resections for malignancy. Changes in the blood parameters present as early as day 2 postoperatively and can highlight patients who require closer monitoring, allowing earlier re-intervention if required.

Background
Right ventricle inflow (RV) dilation is a common adaptation to training in professional athletes, but how this impacts myocardial mechanics is yet unclear. Previous studies in athletes have found changes in segmental longitudinal strain (Sl), namely mid segment Sl, compared to normal controls, and have proposed RV dilation as a possible explanation. Whether different patterns of RV dilation are found in athletes, and if these influence regional RV mechanics is not known.
Purpose
To describe the patterns of RV dilation in healthy adolescent athletes and their relationship to segmental myocardial mechanics.
Methods
A total of 346 healthy athletes (<18 years) screened at 3 sports academies between 2014 and 2019 with measurements for RV Sl, RV basal and RV apical diameters were included. Four groups were defined based on the basal and apical RV diameters size relative to the whole group distribution: No RV dilation (both basal and apical RV diameter under the 25th percentile), basal dilation (only basal RV above the 75th percentile), apical dilation (only apical RV above the 75th percentile) and global dilation (both the basal and apical RV above the 75th percentile). The segmental Sl was compared between the groups using a one-way ANOVA test with Bonferroni correction.
Results
The mean (SD) age was 14.5 (1.6) years, with athletes coming from various ethnic (55% arab, 22% white and 22% black) and sports backgrounds (75% mixed, 11% power, 8% endurance and 6% skill). Based on the RV diameters, the following groups were defined: no dilation (n = 35), basal dilation (n = 53), apical dilation (n = 51) and global dilation (n = 33). There were variations in dilation pattern by ethnicity and practised sports (Figure 1).
RV free wall Sl was less negative ("lower") in the apical and global dilation groups compared to the no dilation group (-26.7% and -26.4% vs -28.6%, p = 0.04 and 0.03, respectively). Mid segment Sl was consistently lower in all 3 dilation pattern groups, compared to the no dilation group (Figure 2, *denotes p < 0.05). Basal Sl was lower in the global dilation group compared to those with no dilation (p = 0.05). There were also differences between the basal and apical dilation groups: basal Sl was lower (p = 0.01) and apical Sl higher (p = 0.02) the apical dilation group.
Conclusions
RV dilation in healthy athletes can be global, predominately basal or predominately apical. Apical and global dilation were more prevalent in non-white ethnicity, endurance and power sports. Lower mid segment Sl values were observed in all 3 dilation patterns, but FW Sl was only lower in the apical and global dilation groups. This suggests that there are different patterns of RV remodelling in athletes, which can be further characterised using segmental strain analysis. Abstract Figure.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The complexity of oesophageal surgery and the significant risk of morbidity necessitates that oesophagectomy is predominantly performed by a consultant surgeon, or a senior trainee under their supervision. The aim of this study was to determine the impact of trainee involvement in oesophagectomy on postoperative outcomes in an international multicentre setting. METHODS Data from the multicentre Oesophago-Gastric Anastomosis Study Group (OGAA) cohort study were analysed, which comprised prospectively collected data from patients undergoing oesophagectomy for oesophageal cancer between April 2018 and December 2018. Procedures were grouped by the level of trainee involvement, and univariable and multivariable analyses were performed to compare patient outcomes across groups. RESULTS Of 2232 oesophagectomies from 137 centres in 41 countries, trainees were involved in 29.1 per cent of them (n = 650), performing only the abdominal phase in 230, only the chest and/or neck phases in 130, and all phases in 315 procedures. For procedures with a chest anastomosis, those with trainee involvement had similar 90-day mortality, complication and reoperation rates to consultant-performed oesophagectomies (P = 0.451, P = 0.318, and P = 0.382, respectively), while anastomotic leak rates were significantly lower in the trainee groups (P = 0.030). Procedures with a neck anastomosis had equivalent complication, anastomotic leak, and reoperation rates (P = 0.150, P = 0.430, and P = 0.632, respectively) in trainee-involved versus consultant-performed oesophagectomies, with significantly lower 90-day mortality in the trainee groups (P = 0.005). CONCLUSION Trainee involvement was not found to be associated with significantly inferior postoperative outcomes for selected patients undergoing oesophagectomy. The results support continued supervised trainee involvement in oesophageal cancer surgery.

Abstract
SETTING Rural Eastern Cape, South Africa. OBJECTIVE To identify steps in the TB preventive care cascade from routinely collected data among TB patients at a district hospital prior to the implementation of a novel TB program. DESIGN This was a retrospective study. We adapted the TB prevention cascade to measure indicators routinely collected at district hospitals for TB using a cascade framework to evaluate outcomes in the cohort of close contacts. RESULTS A total of 1,722 charts of TB patients were reviewed. The majority of patients (87%) were newly diagnosed with no previous episodes of TB. A total of 1,548 (90%) patients identified at least one close contact. A total of 7,548 contacts were identified with a median of 4.9 (range 1-16) contacts per patient. Among all contacts identified, 2,913 (39%) were screened for TB. Only 15 (0.5%) started TB preventive therapy and 122 (4.4%) started TB treatment. Nearly 25% of all medical history and clinical information was left unanswered among the 1,722 TB charts reviewed. CONCLUSION Few close contacts were screened or started on TB preventive therapy in this cohort. Primary care providers for TB care in district health facilities should be informed of best practices for screening and treating TB infection and disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND No evidence currently exists characterising global outcomes following major cancer surgery, including esophageal cancer. Therefore, this study aimed to characterise impact of high income countries (HIC) versus low and middle income countries (LMIC) on the outcomes following esophagectomy for esophageal cancer. METHOD This international multi-center prospective study across 137 hospitals in 41 countries included patients who underwent an esophagectomy for esophageal cancer, with 90-day follow-up. The main explanatory variable was country income, defined according to the World Bank Data classification. The primary outcome was 90-day postoperative mortality, and secondary outcomes were composite leaks (anastomotic leak or conduit necrosis) and major complications (Clavien-Dindo Grade III - V). Multivariable generalized estimating equation models were used to produce adjusted odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CI95%). RESULTS Between April 2018 to December 2018, 2247 patients were included. Patients from HIC were more significantly older, with higher ASA grade, and more advanced tumors. Patients from LMIC had almost three-fold increase in 90-day mortality, compared to HIC (9.4% vs 3.7%, p < 0.001). On adjusted analysis, LMIC were independently associated with higher 90-day mortality (OR: 2.31, CI95%: 1.17-4.55, p = 0.015). However, LMIC were not independently associated with higher rates of anastomotic leaks (OR: 1.06, CI95%: 0.57-1.99, p = 0.9) or major complications (OR: 0.85, CI95%: 0.54-1.32, p = 0.5), compared to HIC. CONCLUSION Resections in LMIC were independently associated with higher 90-day postoperative mortality, likely reflecting a failure to rescue of these patients following esophagectomy, despite similar composite anastomotic leaks and major complication rates to HIC. These findings warrant further research, to identify potential issues and solutions to improve global outcomes following esophagectomy for cancer.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction
The COVID-19 pandemic has threatened all aspects of society. Medical education has not been immune to this. Clinical educators have had to enact creative solutions to ensure continued departmental learning and development. We describe our experience in the General Surgery department of a District General Hospital of transitioning to webinar-based teaching.
Method
7 tutorials were delivered virtually from April-May 2020. A database was created to store presentations alongside supporting material. An online questionnaire canvassed attendee responses (n = 28) to individual teaching sessions and the methodology of the teaching.
Results
71% of staff responded. 100% of respondents were “very,” or “extremely,” satisfied with the quality of teaching. 79% thought remote access encouraged attendance. Attendance rose from 45-65% to 60-75% through the use of the learning database. 92% wanted this teaching methodology to continue.
Specific reference was made in free text responses to the quality, convenience, and utility of the learning database. Maintenance of responsible social distancing was also given as a positive aspect of this teaching method.
Conclusions
We report a successful transition from traditional teaching to a virtual platform as a result of COVID-19 restrictions. Our experience is that high quality teaching can be delivered virtually while encouraging attendance and maintaining social distancing.

Abstract
Globally, geospatial concepts are becoming increasingly important in epidemiological and public health research. Individual level linked population-based data afford researchers with opportunities to undertake complex analyses unrivalled by other sources. However, there are significant challenges associated with using such data for impactful geohealth research. Issues range from extracting, linking and anonymising data, to the translation of findings into policy whilst working to often conflicting agendas of government and academia. Innovative organisational partnerships are therefore central to effective data use. To extend and develop existing collaborations between the institutions, in June 2019, authors from the Leeds Institute for Data Analytics and the Alan Turing Institute, London, visited the Geohealth Laboratory based at the University of Canterbury, New Zealand. This paper provides an overview of insight shared during a two-day workshop considering aspects of linked population-based data for impactful geohealth research. Specifically, we discuss both the collaborative partnership between New Zealand's Ministry of Health (MoH) and the University of Canterbury's GeoHealth Lab and novel infrastructure, and commercial partnerships enabled through the Leeds Institute for Data Analytics and the Alan Turing Institute in the UK. We consider the New Zealand Integrated Data Infrastructure as a case study approach to population-based linked health data and compare similar approaches taken by the UK towards integrated data infrastructures, including the ESRC Big Data Network centres, the UK Biobank, and longitudinal cohorts. We reflect on and compare the geohealth landscapes in New Zealand and the UK to set out recommendations and considerations for this rapidly evolving discipline.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction
Cancer is likened to a non-healing wound. There is limited evidence on the expression of wound healing tissue inflammatory markers, CD68(pan-macrophage marker), HO-1(tumour cell marker) and FAP(cancer-associated fibroblast marker) in human breast cancer.
Method
In 201 invasive breast cancer and 58 DCIS patients, CD68+TAM expression, tumour HO-1 and fibroblast FAP expression, quantified by immunohistochemistry(dichotomised: high/present vs low/absent), was correlated with tumour factors (grade, proliferation(Ki67), ER, HER2); demographic factors, behavioural factors (smoking, alcohol) and survival status(DFS, OS)
Result
High CD68+macrophage expression was increased in invasive breast cancer, compared to DCIS, and normal tissue distant from the tumour(59%,41%and 6% respectively; p<0.001).In invasive cancer,CD68+TAM expression increased with increasing tumour grade(Grade 1:42%, Grade 2:58%, Grade 3:72%; p=0.006), high Ki67(71%vs.47%; p=0.004), ER negativity(79.4%vs.55.4%; p=0.01) and HER2(HER2 positive 81.8% vs. HER2 negative 56.3%; p=0.03). CD68+TAM expression was higher in high compared to low/intermediate grade DCIS(44% % vs. 31% p=0.52). CD68+TAM expression was increased in patients who self-reported alcohol intake(non-drinker 43% vs. drinker 62%; p=0.01). HO-1 was associated with shorter DFS(HR:3.22,p=0.027) and OS(HR:2.86,p=0.029).FAP fibroblast expression correlated with longer DFS (HR:0.296,p=0.029) and OS (HR:0.271,p=0.008).
Conclusion
Tumour inflammation as assessed by CD68+TAM expression shows utility in identifying aggressive breast cancer sub-types. The association reported between CD68+TAM density and alcohol intake suggests a possible mechanism for alcohol as a risk factor for breast cancer. The prognostic value of HO-1 and FAP expression demonstrated here suggests a functional role of these wound healing markers in breast cancer. HO-1:Heme-oxygenase-1; FAP:Fibroblast activation protein; TAM:Tumour associated macrophage; DCIS: Ductal carcinoma in situ
Take-home message
Wound healing pathways of inflammation may be implicated in early breast cancer development

Abstract
Currently, we are experiencing a true pandemic of a communicable disease by the virus SARS-CoV-2 holding the whole world firmly in its grasp. Amazingly and unfortunately, this virus uses a metabolic and endocrine pathway via ACE2 to enter our cells causing damage and disease. Our international research training programme funded by the German Research Foundation has a clear mission to train the best students wherever they may come from to learn to tackle the enormous challenges of diabetes and its complications for our society. A modern training programme in diabetes and metabolism does not only involve a thorough understanding of classical physiology, biology and clinical diabetology but has to bring together an interdisciplinary team. With the arrival of the coronavirus pandemic, this prestigious and unique metabolic training programme is facing new challenges but also new opportunities. The consortium of the training programme has recognized early on the need for a guidance and for practical recommendations to cope with the COVID-19 pandemic for the community of patients with metabolic disease, obesity and diabetes. This involves the optimal management from surgical obesity programmes to medications and insulin replacement. We also established a global registry analyzing the dimension and role of metabolic disease including new onset diabetes potentially triggered by the virus. We have involved experts of infectious disease and virology to our faculty with this metabolic training programme to offer the full breadth and scope of expertise needed to meet these scientific challenges. We have all learned that this pandemic does not respect or heed any national borders and that we have to work together as a global community. We believe that this transCampus metabolic training programme provides a prime example how an international team of established experts in the field of metabolism can work together with students from all over the world to address a new pandemic.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Designed to Smile (D2S) is a national oral health improvement programme, aimed to reduce the prevalence of dental caries in young children in Wales. D2S has a responsibility to consider the environmental impact of the service it provides and demonstrate adherence to the sustainable development principle legislated within the Wellbeing of Future Generations (Wales) Act. OBJECTIVE To review the environmental impact of D2S by estimating the carbon footprint of the programme and identify carbon hotspots for future targeted action. RESEARCH DESIGN Process mapping identified the steps to deliver the supervised toothbrushing and fluoride varnish elements of D2S. Annual estimates of business travel mileage, financial spend on procurement, total number of plastic consumables and waste disposal were made. An online survey enabled calculation of staff commuting behaviour. These contributors were converted to carbon emissions using established carbon conversion factors. RESULTS The annual carbon footprint of D2S was estimated at 388 tonnes of CO²e (tCO²e) with 31% attributed to staff travel, 23% to business travel and 46% to procurement. An estimated 1 million plastic items were distributed. CONCLUSION By promoting good oral care and preventing the need for future carbon intensive restorative dental treatments, D2S exemplifies a sustainable model of healthcare. Adopting reduce, reuse, recycle principles for plastic consumables and introducing sustainable procurement procedures could lead to further decarbonisation and reduction in plastic waste.

Abstract
Funding Acknowledgements
Type of funding sources: Other. Main funding source(s): The study was support by a contractual research partnership between the University of Bristol and Canon Medical Systems UK
Background
Left ventricular non-compaction (LVNC) is a rare cardiomyopathy, with hypertrabeculation often observed in athletes. In confirmed LVNC, LV systolic strain and rotational mechanics have been shown to be abnormal. Whether healthy athletes meeting echocardiographic LVNC criteria exhibit abnormal myocardial mechanics is not known.
Purpose
The aim of this study is to evaluate the prevalence of healthy paediatric athletes meeting the Jenni criteria for LVNC and how this relates to LV systolic function and rotational mechanics.
Methods
Professional athletes under 18 years undergoing comprehensive pre-participation screening (2014-2017) at two sports academies were included. Jenni criteria for LVNC were assessed from short axis LV views. Global and segmental peak systolic longitudinal (Sl) and circumferential strain (Sc), basal rotation (basal Rot) and apical rotation (apical Rot) were calculated using speckle tracking imaging.
Results
A total of 201 boys (11.9-18 years, median 15.1 years) were included, with diverse ethnicity (47.7% Arab, 28.5% Black, 21.8% White, and 2% other) and sports background (60% football, 21.2% athletics, 18.8% other).
Of these n = 16 (8%) met the Jenni criteria for LVNC and were more likely to be of Black ethnicity than Arab or White (12.7% vs 4.4% or 9.5%). There were no differences in global, lateral or septal Sl, basal, mid or apical Sc, basal Rot or apical Rot between participants with or without Jenni criteria for LVNC (Table 1).
Conclusions
In healthy paediatric athletes, those meeting the criteria for LVNC (8%) do not have abnormal longitudinal, circumferential strain and rotational mechanics, compared to those without LVNC criteria. This finding supports the use of speckle tracking echocardiography as a tool in differentiating pathological changes reported in LVNC from exercise associated adaptations observed in athletes during preparticipation screening.

Abstract
PURPOSE Thirty-day mortality of patients with hip fracture is well researched and predictive; validated scoring tools have been developed (Nottingham Hip Fracture Score, NHFS). COVID-19 has significantly greater mortality in the elderly and comorbid patients which includes hip fracture patients. Non-operative treatment is not appropriate due to significantly higher mortality, and therefore, these patients are often exposed to COVID-19 in the peri-operative period. What is unclear is the effect of concomitant COVID-19 infection in these patients. METHODS A multicentre prospective study across ten sites in the United Kingdom (responsible for 7% of hip fracture patients per annum in the UK). Demographic and background information were collected by independent chart review. Data on surgical factors included American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) score, time to theatre, Nottingham Hip fracture score (NHFS) and classification of fracture were also collected between 1st March 2020 and 30th April 2020 with a matched cohort from the same period in 2019. RESULTS Actual and expected 30-day mortality was found to be significantly higher than expected for 2020 COVID-19 positive patients (RR 3.00 95% CI 1.57-5.75, p < 0.001), with 30 observed deaths compared against the 10 expected from NHFS risk stratification. CONCLUSION COVID-19 infection appears to be an independent risk factor for increased mortality in hip fracture patients. Whilst non-operative management of these fractures is not suggested due to the documented increased risks and mortality, this study provides evidence to the emerging literature of the severity of COVID-19 infection in surgical patients and the potential impact of COVID-19 on elective surgical patients in the peri-operative period.

Abstract
AIM At presentation, 15-20% of patients with rectal cancer already have synchronous liver metastases. The aim of this study was to determine the surgical and survival outcomes in patients with advanced rectal cancer who underwent combined pelvic exenteration and liver (oligometastatic) resection. METHOD Data from 20 international institutions that performed simultaneous pelvic exenteration and liver resection between 2007 and 2017 were accumulated. Primarily, we examined perioperative outcomes, morbidity and mortality. We also assessed the impact that margin status had on survival. RESULTS Of 128 patients, 72 (56.2%) were men with a median age of 60 years [interquartile range (IQR) 15 years]. The median size of the liver oligometastatic deposits was 2 cm (IQR 1.8 cm). The median duration of surgery was 406 min (IQR 240 min), with a median blood loss of 1090 ml (IQR 2010 ml). A negative resection margin (R0 resection) was achieved in 73.5% of pelvic exenterations and 66.4% of liver resections. The 30-day mortality rate was 1.6%, and 32% of patients had a major postoperative complication. The 5-year overall survival for patients in whom an R0 resection of both primary and metastatic disease was achieved was 54.6% compared with 20% for those with an R1/R2 resection (P = 0.006). CONCLUSION Simultaneous pelvic exenteration and liver resection is feasible, with acceptable morbidity and mortality. Simultaneous resection should only be performed where an R0 resection of both pelvic and hepatic disease is anticipated.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The superior diagnostic accuracy of fetal MR imaging in detecting fetal brain abnormalities has been previously demonstrated; however, the ability of fetal MR imaging to prognosticate postnatal outcome is not well-studied. We performed a retrospective analysis to determine the prognostic accuracy of fetal MR imaging in predicting postnatal neurodevelopmental outcome. MATERIALS AND METHODS We identified all fetal MR imaging performed at the Children's Hospital of Eastern Ontario during a 10-year period and assessed agreement between prenatal prognosis and postnatal outcome. Prenatal prognosis was determined by a pediatric neurologist who reviewed the fetal MR imaging report and categorized each pregnancy as having a favorable, indeterminate, or poor prognosis. Assessment of postnatal neurodevelopmental outcome was made solely on the basis of the child's Gross Motor Function Classification System score and whether the child developed epilepsy. Postnatal outcome was categorized as favorable, intermediate, or poor. We also assessed the diagnostic accuracy of fetal MR imaging by comparing prenatal and postnatal imaging diagnoses. RESULTS We reviewed 145 fetal MR images: 114 were included in the assessment of diagnostic accuracy, and 104 were included in the assessment of prognostic accuracy. There was 93.0% agreement between prenatal and postnatal imaging diagnoses. Prognosis was favorable in 44.2%, indeterminate in 50.0%, and poor in 5.8% of pregnancies. There was 93.5% agreement between a favorable prenatal prognosis and a favorable postnatal outcome. CONCLUSIONS A favorable prenatal prognosis is highly predictive of a favorable postnatal outcome. Further studies are required to better understand the role of fetal MR imaging in prognosticating postnatal development, particularly in pregnancies with indeterminate and poor prognoses.

Abstract
X-linked deafness-2 (DFNX2) is an X-linked recessive disorder characterized by profound sensorineural hearing loss and a pathognomonic temporal bone deformity. Because hypothalamic malformations associated with DFNX2 have been rarely described, we aimed to further describe these lesions and compare them with features of a nonaffected population. All patients diagnosed with DFNX2 between 2006 and 2019 were included and compared with age-matched patients with normal MR imaging findings and without hypothalamic dysfunction. MR imaging features differing between groups were selected to help identify DFNX2. Sensitivity and specificity were calculated for these features. Agreement among 3 radiologists was quantified using the index κ. Information on the presence or absence of gelastic seizures, precocious puberty, or delayed puberty was also gathered. We selected distinctive MR imaging features of hypothalamic malformations in DFNX2. The feature selected on axial T2 images was the folded appearance of the ventromedial hypothalamus (sensitivity, 100%; specificity, 95.8%) characterized by an abnormal internal/external cleft (sensitivity, 100%; specificity, 95.7%). On coronal T2, the first distinctive feature was a concave morphology of the medial eminence (sensitivity, 100%; specificity, 97.1%), the second feature was at least 1 hypothalamic-septum angle ≥90° (sensitivity, 90%; specificity, 72.5%), and the third feature was a forebrain-hypothalamic craniocaudal length of ≥6 mm (sensitivity, 70%; specificity, 79.7%). Clinical features were also distinctive because 9 patients with DFNX2 did not present with gelastic seizures or precocious puberty. One patient had delayed puberty. The κ index and intraclass correlation coefficient ranged between 0.78 and 0.95. Imaging and clinical features of the hypothalamus suggest that there is a hypothalamic malformation associated with DFNX2. Early assessment for pubertal delay is proposed.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction
A well-established consequence of opiate use is respiratory depression during sleep, with a high prevalence of central sleep apneas. Medication-assisted treatment (MAT) is a widely used therapy for opioid use disorder (OUD) designed to reduce withdrawal symptoms and drug cravings. We investigated the presence of respiratory depression during sleep in patients receiving methadone-based opioid replacement treatment as part of a MAT program for OUD.
Methods
N=6 individuals (5 females, ages 43.8±12.8y, BMI 27.2±4.1kg/m2), who were within 90 days of methadone initiation, underwent in-laboratory overnight polysomnography (8h TIB, 22:00-06:00). Apneaic and hypopneic events were determined using AASM criteria.
Results
The average Apnea-Hypopnea Index (AHI) was 16.5±9.0 events/h, with 2 individuals exceeding the threshold of moderate sleep apnea (>15 events/h). 89.5% of the observed apnea-hypopnea events occurred during NREM sleep. Of all events, 57.1±16.3% were central apneas; and of all obstructive, central, and mixed apnea events, 93.0±14.3% were central apneas.
Conclusion
Individuals with OUD receiving methadone-based MAT may be at risk of respiratory depression during sleep, as evidenced by the frequent occurrence of central sleep apneas. Such risk could be a contributing factor in opioid overdose deaths. Currently, performing respiratory assessments during sleep is not considered standard of care in MAT programs. Our preliminary data suggest that monitoring and treatment of respiratory depression during sleep may be indicated in OUD patients on methadone-based MAT.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction
It has been established that the use of opioids suppresses stage N3 sleep. For individuals with opioid use disorder (OUD), medication-assisted treatment (MAT) is a widely employed opioid replacement therapy used to mitigate withdrawal effects and drug cravings. We investigated sleep architecture in individuals receiving methadone-based MAT.
Methods
N=6 individuals (aged 43.8±12.8y; 5 females), who were within 90 days of methadone initiation, underwent in-laboratory overnight polysomnography (8h TIB; 22:00-06:00). Prior to bedtime, pain intensity and opioid withdrawal symptoms were assessed using the Numeric Pain Rating Scale (0-10) and the Clinical Opiate Withdrawal Scale (0-48). Sleep recordings were scored visually according to AASM guidelines.
Results
In this sample, subjects exhibited 87.4-93.0% (M: 92.2%) sleep efficiency (SE), 8.0-16.2min (M: 12.1min) sleep latency (SL), 5.5-7.5% (M: 6.5%) N1, 46.4-52.7% (M: 49.6%) N2, 20.7-30.6% (M: 25.6%) N3, 17.5-19.1% (M: 18.3%) REM, 28.0-38.5min (M: 33.3min) N3 latency, and 84.1-125.9min (M: 105.0min) REM latency. Subjects reported moderate pain intensity scores of 5-6 (M: 5.3) and mild to moderate withdrawal symptoms of 1-15 (M: 7.8).
Conclusion
Relative to published healthy sleeper norms, subjects showed more N1 and N3 and less REM sleep. The increased N3 was unexpected given that opioids (such as methadone) typically suppress N3; it may reflect subjects carrying a substantial sleep debt. Pain and withdrawal symptoms may be a factor increasing N1 and reducing REM sleep. Such potential sleep deficiencies may interfere with subjects achieving OUD recovery goals and are worthy of further investigation.

Abstract
We present an adult woman with subcutaneous nodules without any signs or symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis. These nodules are believed to be pseudorheumatoid nodules, which are considered a deep form of granuloma annulare. This case is unique because these are typically found in children and have rarely been reported in adults. These nodules are typically asymptomatic and do not require treatment. However, attempts have been made to treat them with intralesional corticosteroids, cryotherapy, or excision. Owing to the fact that this is considered a deep form of granuloma annulare, they are sometimes treated similarly with a combination of monthly rifampin, ofloxacin, and minocycline.

Abstract
An 18-year-old man underwent surgery for correction of idiopathic scoliosis. Due to the requirement for intra-operative spinal cord monitoring, propofol and remifentanil total intravenous anaesthesia was chosen as the anaesthetic technique. Clonidine was given intra-operatively as part of his analgesic regimen. No long-acting opioids were administered. There was delayed emergence after switching off total intravenous anaesthesia and he remained sedated with a bispectral index of approximately 60 for 90 min. The common causes of delayed emergence were excluded. Shortly after administering naloxone, there was an increase in bispectral index and emergence from anaesthesia. We describe the successful use of naloxone to reverse the sedation effects of clonidine.
