Abstract
Background There is an age-old notion that family planning is women's responsibility disregarding the fact that men have equal responsibility in fertility regulation. Although male involvement is getting more recognition, studies on men's role in family planning are very few in the number in this part of the world. Objective To assess the knowledge, attitude and level of male involvement in family planning and to find out the factors associated with male involvement by contraceptive usage. Method A community based cross-sectional study was done from May to July 2021 among 165 currently married male, who had at least one child, living in Singur district of West Bengal. Cluster sampling method was done to select study participants and data were collected by pre-designed pretested questionnaire. Descriptive statistics, multivariable logistic regression was applied and data were analysed applying SPSS software. Result Only 36.4% participants were directly involved in family planning either by using condom or by withdrawal method but 65.5% participants were indirectly involved in family planning through spousal communication either by approving contraceptive use to their spouse or by decision making regarding family planning. Moreover, barrier of contraceptives usage were side effect (27%) and fear of impotence (25.5%). Male involvement was significantly associated with participant's education [AOR (95% CI= 3.63 (1.45-9.05)], caste [AOR (95% CI= 7.06 (2.55-19.51)], number of living children [AOR (95%CI= 5.01(1.95-12.87)], desire for more child [AOR (95% CI=0.34 (.13-.87)] and attitude on family planning [AOR (95% CI= 3.55 (1.41-8.94)]. Conclusion This study identified the prevailing gender norms in rural areas. Advocacy for male involvement in family planning by health personnel during counselling of eligible couples should help in increasing contraceptive coverage in the long run.

Abstract
Objective: The objective of this study is comparision of local and distant control rates with high-dose versus standard-dose radiotherapy along with concurrent chemotherapy in esophageal cancer – a prospective randomized study. Materials and Methods: Histologically proven Stage I–III patients with carcinoma esophagus were randomized into two groups. One group has been treated with standard-dose radiotherapy, i.e., a total dose of 50.4 Gy (1.8 Gy/day, 28#, 5 days/week). The other group (study arm) has received high-dose radiotherapy, i.e. a total dose of 64.8 Gy (1.8 Gy/day, 36#, 5 days/week). Both groups have received 2 cycles of 3 weekly concurrent chemotherapy (cisplatin 75 mg/m[2] on day 1 and 5-fluorouracil 750 mg/m[2] continuous intravenous infusion over 24 h on day 1–4). Follow-up response evaluation was done by both endoscopy and computed tomography scan after 6–8 weeks and after 2 months thereafter. Results: Out of a total of 28 patients, 68% showed a complete response, 14% showed partial response, and 18% patients developed progressive disease at first and subsequent follow up (median follow-up of 21 months). Among the complete response patients, rates were higher in high-dose group compared to standard-dose radiotherapy group (71% vs. 64%, P = 0.38). Treatment-related toxicities were acceptable in both groups. Conclusion: High-dose radiotherapy with concurrent chemotherapy seems to be more effective with acceptable toxicity in our study. However, further follow-up and large sample size may be required to validate the current study conclusion.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We report the results of International Nosocomial Infection Control Consortium (INICC) surveillance study from January 2012 to December 2017 in 523 intensive care units (ICUs) in 45 countries from Latin America, Europe, Eastern Mediterranean, Southeast Asia, and Western Pacific. METHODS During the 6-year study period, prospective data from 532,483 ICU patients hospitalized in 242 hospitals, for an aggregate of 2,197,304 patient days, were collected through the INICC Surveillance Online System (ISOS). The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention-National Healthcare Safety Network (CDC-NHSN) definitions for device-associated health care-associated infection (DA-HAI) were applied. RESULTS Although device use in INICC ICUs was similar to that reported from CDC-NHSN ICUs, DA-HAI rates were higher in the INICC ICUs: in the medical-surgical ICUs, the pooled central line-associated bloodstream infection rate was higher (5.05 vs 0.8 per 1,000 central line-days); the ventilator-associated pneumonia rate was also higher (14.1 vs 0.9 per 1,000 ventilator-days,), as well as the rate of catheter-associated urinary tract infection (5.1 vs 1.7 per 1,000 catheter-days). From blood cultures samples, frequencies of resistance, such as of Pseudomonas aeruginosa to piperacillin-tazobactam (33.0% vs 18.3%), were also higher. CONCLUSIONS Despite a significant trend toward the reduction in INICC ICUs, DA-HAI rates are still much higher compared with CDC-NHSN's ICUs representing the developed world. It is INICC's main goal to provide basic and cost-effective resources, through the INICC Surveillance Online System to tackle the burden of DA-HAIs effectively.

Abstract
Abstract
CD8 T cells are critical for controlling intracellular pathogens, but during chronic viral infection, these cells become exhausted and unable to control virus. Programmed cell death-1 (PD-1) blockade therapy partially improves exhausted CD8 T cells during chronic viral infections. However, its limited efficacy in models of chronic infection has precluded its licensure to treat chronic infection. Interestingly, prior studies show that certain microbiota can improve PD-1 therapy, but the specific microbial components that mediate this positive effect remain unknown. In this study, we interrogated whether microbial LPS could enhance PD-1 therapy during chronic viral infection. Using the model of chronic lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus (LCMV) infection in mice, we show that sublethal doses of LPS followed by PD-1 therapy results in synergistic improvement of virus-specific CD8 T cells in blood and tissues (~10-fold greater compared to PD-1 therapy alone). We show that the improvement of PD-1 therapy by LPS is dependent on reinforced B7/CD28 costimulation and is mediated by a dendritic cell intrinsic mechanism. Although LPS has safety concerns, prior studies show that low LPS doses (≤4 ng/kg) are well-tolerated in humans, demonstrating that there is a threshold of natural resistance to this microbial product. Altogether, our data suggest an unexpected role for LPS/TLR4 signaling in modulating response to PD-1 therapy. Our findings may be important for improving immune checkpoint therapy against chronic infections and for understanding how microbial products modulate responses to therapy.

Abstract
CD8 T cells are necessary for the elimination of intracellular pathogens, but during chronic viral infections, CD8 T cells become exhausted and unable to control the persistent infection. Programmed cell death-1 (PD-1) blockade therapies have been shown to improve CD8 T cell responses during chronic viral infections. These therapies have been licensed to treat cancers in humans, but they have not yet been licensed to treat chronic viral infections because limited benefit is seen in pre-clinical animal models of chronic infection. In the present study, we investigated whether TLR4 triggering could improve PD-1 therapy during a chronic viral infection. Using the model of chronic lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus (LCMV) infection in mice, we show that TLR4 triggering with sublethal doses of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) followed by PD-1 blockade results in superior improvement in circulating virus-specific CD8 T cell responses, relative to PD-1 blockade alone. Moreover, we show that the synergy between LPS and PD-1 blockade is dependent on B7 costimulation and mediated by a dendritic cell (DC) intrinsic mechanism. Systemic LPS administration may have safety concerns, motivating us to devise a safer regimen. We show that ex vivo activation of DCs with LPS, followed by adoptive DC transfer, results in a similar potentiation of PD-1 therapy without inducing wasting disease. In summary, our data demonstrate a previously unidentified role for LPS/TLR4 signaling in modulating the host response to PD-1 therapy. These findings may be important for developing novel checkpoint therapies against chronic viral infection. Although PD-1 therapies have revolutionized cancer treatment, these therapies have not yet been licensed to treat chronic viral infections. This is because limited benefit is seen in pre-clinical models of chronic viral infection. Interestingly, recent reports in cancer models have suggested that certain microbes can affect the efficacy of PD-1 therapies, but the specific microbial products that modulate host responses to therapy remain unknown. We utilized a model of chronic viral infection to evaluate if bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS), a major constituent of the microbiome, influences the efficacy of PD-1 therapy. Interestingly, we demonstrate that TLR4 triggering with low doses of LPS combined with PD-1 blockade induced a synergistic rescue of exhausted virus-specific CD8 T cell responses. Moreover, we demonstrate that adoptive transfer of LPS-activated DCs also results in similar improvement of PD-1 therapy without inducing overt immunopathology. Mechanistically, the synergy was DC-intrinsic, IFN-I independent, and B7/CD28 dependent. Taken together, our data may be important for understanding how components of the microbiome modulate the efficacy of PD-1 therapy, and may result in novel combined regimens for treating chronic viral infections.

Abstract
Antiretroviral therapy (ART) for the treatment of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection represents a major breakthrough in the treatment of HIV/acquired immune-deficiency syndrome. However, it remains unclear how ART influences virus-specific immune responses and understanding this is important for developing novel cure and eradication interventions for HIV-1. In the present study, we evaluate how ART impacts T-cell and antibody responses in simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV) -infected rhesus macaques. We evaluated CD4 and CD8 T-cell responses by multiparameter flow cytometry, viral loads by quantitative RT-PCR by a two-step process using SIV-specific primers and antibody neutralization function by luciferase-based TZM-bl assays. We demonstrate that macaques treated with ART exhibit phenotypic and qualitative effects on T-cell and antibody responses. Macaques on ART exhibited low numbers of virus-specific T-cell responses, and these responses appeared to be partially biased towards central memory subsets. More importantly, there were significantly reduced neutralizing antibody responses in macaques treated with ART. Collectively, these data improve the understanding of how virus-specific immune responses are generated during ART, and suggest the potential importance of therapeutic vaccines to maintain adaptive immunity during treated infection.

Abstract
Bone marrow transplantation is a treatment for various cancers and genetic diseases, and the only case of a cured HIV infection involved the use of this clinical procedure, highlighting the potential use of this therapy for curing many chronic diseases. However, little is known about how chronic viral infection influences lymphocyte reconstitution after bone marrow transplantation. To address this, we infected mice with chronic lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus, and performed bone marrow transplantation to assess lymphocyte reconstitution. Interestingly, we observed that adoptively transferred marrow cells exhibited preferential B cell differentiation in chronically infected mice. Moreover, donor marrow cells that were adoptively transferred into chronically infected mice differentiated into virus-specific CD8 T cells that were able to expand after PD-L1 blockade. Taken together, our data show that chronic viral infection induces a biased differentiation of bone marrow stem cells into B cells, and that exhausted virus-specific CD8 T cells generated de novo in this setting are rescuable by PD-1 blockade. These data contribute to the understanding of how chronic viral infection impacts lymphocyte reconstitution, and may provide valuable information to improve current hematopoietic transplantation regimens in chronically infected hosts.

Abstract
Constitutive fibroblast activation is responsible for organ fibrosis in fibrotic disorders including systemic sclerosis (SSc), but the underlying mechanisms are not fully understood, and effective therapies are lacking. We investigated the expression of the mitochondrial deacetylase sirtuin 3 (SIRT3) and its modulation by hexafluoro, a novel fluorinated synthetic honokiol analogue, in the context of fibrosis. We find that augmenting cellular SIRT3 by forced expression in normal lung and skin fibroblasts, or by hexafluoro treatment, blocked intracellular TGF-ß signaling and fibrotic responses, and mitigated the activated phenotype of SSc fibroblasts. Moreover, hexafluoro attenuated mitochondrial and cytosolic reactive oxygen species (ROS) accumulation in TGF-β-treated fibroblasts. Remarkably, we found that the expression of SIRT3 was significantly reduced in SSc skin biopsies and explanted fibroblasts, and was suppressed by TGF-β treatment in normal fibroblasts. Moreover, tissue levels of acetylated MnSOD, a sensitive marker of reduced SIRT3 activity, were dramatically enhanced in lesional skin and lung biopsies from SSc patients. Mice treated with hexafluoro showed substantial attenuation of bleomycin-induced fibrosis in the lung and skin. Our findings reveal a cell-autonomous function for SIRT3 in modulating fibrotic responses, and demonstrate the ability of a novel pharmacological SIRT3 agonist to attenuate fibrosis in vitro and in vivo. In light of the impaired expression and activity of SIRT3 associated with organ fibrosis in SSc, pharmacological approaches for augmenting SIRT3 might have therapeutic potential.

Abstract
CD4 T cells help immune responses, but knowledge of how memory CD4 T cells are regulated and how they regulate adaptive immune responses and induce immunopathology is limited. Using adoptive transfer of virus-specific CD4 T cells, we show that naive CD4 T cells undergo substantial expansion following infection, but can induce lethal T helper type 1-driven inflammation. In contrast, memory CD4 T cells exhibit a biased proliferation of T follicular helper cell subsets and were able to improve adaptive immune responses in the context of minimal tissue damage. Our analyses revealed that type I interferon regulates the expansion of primary CD4 T cells, but does not seem to play a critical role in regulating the expansion of secondary CD4 T cells. Strikingly, blockade of type I interferon abrogated lethal inflammation by primary CD4 T cells following viral infection, despite that this treatment increased the numbers of primary CD4 T-cell responses. Altogether, these data demonstrate important aspects of how primary and secondary CD4 T cells are regulated in vivo, and how they contribute to immune protection and immunopathology. These findings are important for rational vaccine design and for improving adoptive T-cell therapies against persistent antigens.

Abstract
T regulatory (Treg) cells are critical for preventing autoimmunity and suppressing immune responses during cancer and chronic infection. However, the role of Treg cells in the generation of vaccine-induced immune memory remains ill-defined. Using the mouse model of lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus (LCMV) infection, we demonstrate that transient absence of Treg cells during effector to memory CD8 T-cell transition results in a permanent impairment in the maintenance, function and recall capacity of CD8 T cells. Memory CD8 T cells in mice that were transiently depleted of Treg cells exhibited defective up-regulation of memory markers with a significant decrease in polyfunctionality. However, Treg-depleted mice showed no significant change in CD4 T-cell responses, and antibody levels relative to control. Altogether, this study evaluates the role of Treg cells in the formation of immune memory and demonstrates an important role for Treg cells in promoting memory CD8 T-cell differentiation and vaccine-induced immune protection against intracellular pathogens.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We report the results of International Nosocomial Infection Control Consortium (INICC) surveillance study from January 2010-December 2015 in 703 intensive care units (ICUs) in Latin America, Europe, Eastern Mediterranean, Southeast Asia, and Western Pacific. METHODS During the 6-year study period, using Centers for Disease Control and Prevention National Healthcare Safety Network (CDC-NHSN) definitions for device-associated health care-associated infection (DA-HAI), we collected prospective data from 861,284 patients hospitalized in INICC hospital ICUs for an aggregate of 3,506,562 days. RESULTS Although device use in INICC ICUs was similar to that reported from CDC-NHSN ICUs, DA-HAI rates were higher in the INICC ICUs: in the INICC medical-surgical ICUs, the pooled rate of central line-associated bloodstream infection, 4.1 per 1,000 central line-days, was nearly 5-fold higher than the 0.8 per 1,000 central line-days reported from comparable US ICUs, the overall rate of ventilator-associated pneumonia was also higher, 13.1 versus 0.9 per 1,000 ventilator-days, as was the rate of catheter-associated urinary tract infection, 5.07 versus 1.7 per 1,000 catheter-days. From blood cultures samples, frequencies of resistance of Pseudomonas isolates to amikacin (29.87% vs 10%) and to imipenem (44.3% vs 26.1%), and of Klebsiella pneumoniae isolates to ceftazidime (73.2% vs 28.8%) and to imipenem (43.27% vs 12.8%) were also higher in the INICC ICUs compared with CDC-NHSN ICUs. CONCLUSIONS Although DA-HAIs in INICC ICU patients continue to be higher than the rates reported in CDC-NSHN ICUs representing the developed world, we have observed a significant trend toward the reduction of DA-HAI rates in INICC ICUs as shown in each international report. It is INICC's main goal to continue facilitating education, training, and basic and cost-effective tools and resources, such as standardized forms and an online platform, to tackle this problem effectively and systematically.

Abstract
Mutation in the TP53 gene positively correlates with increased incidence of chemoresistance in different cancers. In this study, we investigated the mechanism of chemoresistance and epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) in colorectal cancer involving the gain-of-function (GOF) mutant p53/ephrin-B2 signaling axis. Bioinformatic analysis of the NCI-60 data set and subsequent hub prediction identified EFNB2 as a possible GOF mutant p53 target gene, responsible for chemoresistance. We show that the mutant p53-NF-Y complex transcriptionally upregulates EFNB2 expression in response to DNA damage. Moreover, the acetylated form of mutant p53 protein is recruited on the EFNB2 promoter and positively regulates its expression in conjunction with coactivator p300. In vitro cell line and in vivo nude mice data show that EFNB2 silencing restores chemosensitivity in mutant p53-harboring tumors. In addition, we observed high expression of EFNB2 in patients having neoadjuvant non-responder colorectal carcinoma compared with those having responder version of the disease. In the course of deciphering the drug resistance mechanism, we also show that ephrin-B2 reverse signaling induces ABCG2 expression after drug treatment that involves JNK-c-Jun signaling in mutant p53 cells. Moreover, 5-fluorouracil-induced ephrin-B2 reverse signaling promotes tumorigenesis through the Src-ERK pathway, and drives EMT via the Src-FAK pathway. We thus conclude that targeting ephrin-B2 might enhance the therapeutic potential of DNA-damaging chemotherapeutic agents in mutant p53-bearing human tumors.

Abstract
Introduction: Squamous cell cancer of the vulva is a rare disease with an annual incidence of two to three per 100,000 women. Lymph node metastasis is the most important prognostic factor for the recurrence and survival in vulval carcinoma. Materials and Methods: It is a retrospective study of 18 cases, operated in our institute from 2006 to 2009 and followed up till July, 2012. These patients were divided into two group of node positive and node negative and compared for recurrence and survival. Result: Ten patients had lymph node metastasis and eight had no lymph node metastasis. Recurrence rate was 40% and 12.5% in node positive and negative groups, respectively. Adjuvant radiation when given to node negative bulky tumor showed no recurrence compared to one out of two in the non-irradiated group. Survival was only 25% in node positive recurrent cases. Conclusion: Lymph node positivity added a great risk for future recurrence. Prophylactic radiation in node negative, bulky tumor is helpful.

Abstract
The primary aim of this study is to identify and analyze the importance of adverse drug reaction due to drug-drug interaction as a contributing factor towards drug safety. Patients more than 18 years of age admitted in multidisciplinary intensive care unit of a tertiary care hospital were included in this study. Patients who stayed less than 48 h and patients in whom all treatment modalities have been withdrawn and were on comfort measures only (no drugs were prescribed), were excluded. All the drugs that were given during intensive care unit stay were checked for presence of potential interactions which led to adverse drug reaction. Drug-drug interactions that were detected clinically or through investigations were recorded and also any therapeutic actions taken for drug-drug interactions were noted. From June 2006 to April 2007, 400 patients-prescriptions were analyzed. Adverse drug reactions due to drug-drug interactions were identified in 64% patients. Among those patients 38.67% had a single drug-drug interaction. Potential drug-drug interactions were 602. Clinically significant drug-drug interactions among the potential were 208 (34.55%). Clinically relevant drug-drug interactions were 103 (49.52% of 208 episodes). The adverse drug reactions due to drug-drug interactions in our sample were managed either by substituting another drug (50.48% of 103 episodes) or by adjusting the dose (1% of 103 episodes) or by omitting the drug (48.54% of 103 episodes). Among the 208 observed drug-drug interactions induced adverse drug reactions 21.63% was severe drug-drug interactions induced adverse drug reactions, 23.08% was moderate drug-drug interactions induced adverse drug reactions and 55.29% was minor drug-drug interactions induced adverse drug reactions. The interactions which were life threatening and/ or require medical intervention to minimize or prevent serious adverse effects were considered as severe drug-drug interactions and those interaction which resulted in an exacerbation of the patient's condition and/ or require an alteration in therapy were considered as moderate drug-drug interactions. The interactions which were limited clinical effects and manifestations may include an increase in the frequency or severity of side effects but generally would not require a major alteration in therapy were classified as minor drug-drug interactions. The correlation coefficient was 0.86 between the number of drugs given to the patient & number of average potential adverse drug reactions found among the patients. Increase in number of prescribed drug significantly (one way) increases number of potential adverse drug reaction due to drug-drug interaction (p<0.0001). Critically ill patients are more susceptible to drug-drug interactions due to the administration of multiple drugs and complex drug combinations. Several drug-drug interactions were clinically irrelevant.

Abstract
Pancreatic adenocarcinoma has a poor prognosis and frequently develops resistance to standard chemotherapeutics. Oncolytic adenoviruses represent a promising approach to overcome treatment resistance. The replication-selective dl922-947 adenovirus, defective in pRb binding, targets cancers with deregulated cell cycle control, such as the majority of pancreatic tumors. Cell killing efficacy was higher for dl922-947 than for adenovirus type 5 (Ad5) and the clinically approved dl1520 in pancreatic cancer cells with K-ras, p16 and p53 mutations. Combinations of dl922-947 and 5-fluorouracil or gemcitabine (2'2'-difluoro-2-deoxytidine) resulted in strong synergistic cell killing in Suit-2 and the highly drug- and virus-resistant Hs766T cells. Viral uptake increased in response to drugs, but was independent of the expression levels of the viral attachment receptor coxsackie and adenovirus receptor (CAR), whereas expression levels of the internalization receptors α(v)β(3)- and α(v)β(5)-integrins were increased. Early viral E1A expression was potently induced with drugs contributing to the synergistic effects. The dl922-947 mutant was more efficacious than Ad5 in vivo in Hs766T and Suit-2 xenograft models. In combination with gemcitabine, median survival was further prolonged. We demonstrate that dl922-947 is highly efficacious in pancreatic cancers and conclude that oncolytic adenoviruses harboring the E1ACR2 deletion have great potential for development into future clinical candidates for pancreatic cancer.

Abstract
This study was conducted to evaluate whether microalbuminuria on admission and after 24 hrs of admission to intensive care unit (ICU) predicts outcome as well as the Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation (APACHE) II severity illness score, the current accepted method of doing so. The study was carried out in a 20 bed mixed medical-surgical ICU of a tertiary care hospital. Of 525 consecutive adult patients with ICU stay of more than 24 hrs, 238 were included for the study. Patients with pregnancy, menstruation, anuria, macroscopic hematuria, urinary tract infection, marked proteinuria due to renal and post-renal structural diseases, were excluded. Spot urine samples were collected on admission to ICU and 24 hrs thereafter. Urine albumincreatinine ratio (ACR) was measured on ICU admission (ACR1) and after 24 hrs (ACR2) and expressed in mg/g. Patient demographics were noted on admission. For disease severity scoring, APACHE II scores were calculated. Each patient was followed up throughout their ICU stay for a maximum of 28 days and the following outcome data were obtained: ICU length of stay and ICU mortality. Of the 238 patients, 196 survived while 42 patients died in the ICU. Non-survivors had a significantly higher median ACR2 [162.7 mg/g (IQR 69.5-344.3)] in comparison to the survivors who had a median ACR2 = 54.4 mg/g (IQR 19.0-129.1) (P< 0.0001). The median ACR1 [161.0 mg/g (IQR 29.0-369.3)] of non-survivors was higher than the median ACR1 [80.4 mg/g (IQR 35.1-167.6)] of survivors but failed to reach statistical significance (P= 0.0948). In a receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) analysis, ACR2 emerged as the best indicator of mortality [(area under curve (AUC) of ACR2 = 0.71 > AUC (ACR1) =0.58 > AUC (ΔACR) =0.55] similar to the currently used APACHE II scores (AUC = 0.78) (P=0.3). At a cutoff of 101 mg/g, ACR2 had a sensitivity of 69%, specificity of 67%, positive predictive value of 31% and a negative predictive value of 91% for predicting mortality in the critically ill patients. Absence of significant microalbuminuria at 24 hrs of ICU admission may help to predict survival in the ICU.

Abstract
ErbB2 (or Her2/Neu) overexpression in breast cancer signifies poorer prognosis, yet it has provided an avenue for targeted therapy as demonstrated by the success of the humanized monoclonal antibody Trastuzumab (Herceptin). Resistance to Trastuzumab and eventual failure in most cases, however, necessitate alternate ErbB2-targeted therapies. HSP90 inhibitors such as 17-allylaminodemethoxygeldanamycin (17-AAG), potently downregulate the cell surface ErbB2. While the precise mechanisms of Trastuzumab or 17-AAG action remain unclear, ubiquitinylation-dependent proteasomal or lysosomal degradation of ErbB2 appears to play a substantial role. As Trastuzumab and 17-AAG induce the recruitment of distinct E3 ubiquitin ligases, Cbl and CHIP respectively, to ErbB2, we hypothesized that 17-AAG and Trastuzumab combination could induce a higher level of ubiquitinylation and downregulation of ErbB2 as compared to single drug treatments. We present biochemical and cell biological evidence that combined 17-AAG and Trastuzumab treatment of ErbB2-overexpressing breast cancer cell lines leads to enhanced ubiquitinylation, downregulation from the cell surface and lysosomal degradation of ErbB2. Importantly, combined 17-AAG and Trastuzumab treatment induced synergistic growth arrest and cell death specifically in ErbB2-overexpressing but not in ErbB2-low breast cancer cells. Our results suggest the 17-AAG and Trastuzumab combination as a mechanism-based combinatorial targeted therapy for ErbB2-overexpressing breast cancer patients.

Abstract
Graft impingement can cause graft failure or movement restrictions. Intraoperative computer-assisted referencing of the tibial and femoral geometry, including precise mapping of the intercondylar notch, allows placement of the tunnels by real-time calculation balancing the impingement risks vs isometry. Biological fixation with bone cylinders locks the graft flush with the joint line and requires more accurate tunnel placement to avoid graft impingement. In 45 patients who underwent such navigation controlled tunnel placement 41 had no need for notchplasty. In two cases, the notchplasty was performed immediately for obvious osteophyte restriction. A notchplasty was added two times after the first referencing to obtain satisfactory isometry. At staged follow up to 18 months, we found no laxity, flexion contracture with a mean flexion arc over 130 degrees, or tunnel widening. With computer-navigated realtime assessment of notch geometry, full functional recovery and stability were obtained, and unnecessary notchplasties were avoided even with a less flexible biological graft fixation.

Abstract
Molecular mechanisms underlying the interaction between malarial sporozoites and putative receptor(s) on the salivary glands of Anopheles gambiae remain largely unknown. In previous studies, a salivary gland protein of ~100 kDa was identified as a putative target based on recognition of the protein by a monoclonal antibody (mAb) 2A3 that caused a >/= 70% reduction in the average number of sporozoites per infected salivary gland when fed to mosquitoes. Using affinity purification we purified the target of this mAb from extracts of female A. gambiae salivary glands and it was found to be a novel protein by tandem mass spectrometric analysis. Biochemical and molecular characterization of the 100 kDa protein showed that this molecule, designated Saglin, exists as a disulphide-bonded homodimer of 50 kDa subunits. The ability to form homodimers was retained even in the recombinant Saglin expressed in mammalian cells (HEK293). The amino acid sequence of Saglin contains a signal peptide suggesting that Saglin is a secreted protein. If Saglin is indeed involved in the process of invasion of A. gambiae salivary glands by sporozoites of Plasmodium, it could provide a novel target for future investigations aimed at interruption of malaria transmission.

Abstract
Most renal cell carcinomas recur or metastasize within 2 years. We present a 62-year-old lady with metastatic renal cell carcinoma in the spine, 31 years following nephrectomy of the primary tumor. This is the longest interval between diagnosis of primary renal cell carcinoma and metastasis reported in the literature.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE The study aimed to determine whether matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-1 (TIMP-1) in gingival crevice fluid could serve as prognostic factors for the progression of periodontitis in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) -positive patients. Activated inflammatory cells produce inflammatory mediators, which stimulate the production of MMPs and their inhibitors. It is likely that the compromised immune system contributes to the pathogenesis of periodontitis in HIV-positive patients. METHODS Clinical measurements including gingival index, plaque index, bleeding index, probing depth, attachment loss, and gingival crevice fluid samples were taken from two healthy sites (including sites with gingival recession, gingival index = 0; probing depth < or = 3 mm; attachment loss < or = 2 mm), three gingivitis sites (gingival index > 0; probing depth < or = 3 mm; attachment loss = 0) and three periodontitis sites (gingival index > 0; probing depth > or = 5 mm; attachment loss > or = 3 mm) of each of the 35 patients at baseline visits and 6-month visits by means of paper strips. Gingival crevice fluid levels of MMP-9 and TIMP-1 were determined by sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays. RESULTS The mean amounts of MMP-9 and TIMP-1 in the gingivitis and periodontitis sites sites were significantly higher than in the healthy sites (P < 0.0001). The progressing site was defined as a site that had 2 mm or more attachment loss during the 6-month study period. Gingival crevice fluid levels of MMP-9 were significantly correlated with probing depth, attachment loss, TIMP-1, age, smoking pack years, and viral load values at baseline and 6-month visits (0.0001 < P < 0.001). TIMP-1 levels were only correlated with CD4, viral load, attachment loss, and MMP-9 (0.001 < P < 0.01). Repeated measures analysis of 11 active sites vs. 269 inactive sites indicated that MMP-9 and TIMP-1 levels were significantly higher in active sites than in inactive sites (P < 0.0001). These data indicate that sites with high ginigval crevice fluid levels of MMP-9 and TIMP-1 in HIV-positive patients are at significantly greater risk for progression of periodontitis.
