Abstract
The low (sub %) efficiencies so-far demonstrated for nonlinear optical down-conversion to terahertz (THz) frequencies are a primary limiting factor in the generation of high-energy, high-field THz-radiation pulses (in particular narrowband, multicycle pulses) needed for many scientific fields. However, simulations predict that far higher conversion efficiencies are possible by use of suitably-optimized optical sources. Here we implement a customized optical laser system producing highly-tunable trains of infrared pulses and systematically explore the experimental optimization of the down-conversion process. Our setup, which allows tuning of the energy, duration, number and periodicity of the pulses in the train, provides a unique capability to test predictions of analytic theory and simulation on the parameter dependences for the optical-to-THz difference-frequency generation process as well as to map out, with unprecedented precision, key properties of the nonlinear crystal medium. We discuss the agreements and deviations between simulation and experimental results which, on the one hand, shed light on limitations of the existing theory, and on the other hand, provide the first steps in a recipe for development of practical, high-field, efficiency-optimized THz sources.

Abstract
Background The impact of the Coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) pandemic on patients with liver disease is not well described at the population level in the United States. Purpose We used the largest, nationwide inpatient dataset to describe inpatient liver disease outcomes in the United States during the first year of the pandemic (2020) using 2018 and 2019 as comparator years. Method Using the National Inpatient Sample (2018-2020), we explored year-to-year and 2020 month-to-month trends in hospitalizations, length of stay, and inpatient mortality for liver-related indications including compensated cirrhosis, decompensated cirrhosis, alcohol-associated liver disease (ALD), alcohol-associated hepatitis (AH), hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), and variceal upper gastrointestinal bleeding (VUGIB) using regression modeling. We also looked at the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on liver transplantation rates. A p-value <0.05 was considered statistically significant. Result(s) Hospitalizations for both compensated and decompensated cirrhosis decreased in 2020 compared to 2019 (relative change [RC] of 1.5%, p <0.001, Table 1). Interestingly, hospitalizations for ALD and AH increased in 2020 compared to pre-pandemic years (ALD RC=15.5% and AH RC 17.0%; p<0.001). Despite the decrease in cirrhosis hospitalizations in 2020, all-cause inpatient mortality among patients with compensated cirrhosis increased from 30,135 in 2019 to 35,220 in 2020 (p<0.001) and from 22,850 in 2019 to 26,390 in 2020 among patients with decompensated cirrhosis (p<0.001). This was accompanied by a 27.8% increase in mortality for ALD (p=0.004) in comparison to pre-pandemic years. Corresponding to the peaks of the pandemic, we observed the fewest cirrhosis hospitalizations in April and December 2020 (Table 2), however, these months had the highest observed mortality rates (p-trend ≤ 0.004). Reassuringly, liver transplantation rates were not significantly impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic (p=0.51). Image ![]()
Conclusion(s) Cirrhosis hospitalizations, in general, decreased in 2020 compared to pre-pandemic years but were associated with higher all-cause mortality rates particularly in the peak months of the COVID-19 pandemic (April and December 2020) possibly reflecting COVID-19 specific mortality. Alcoholic liver disease admissions also increased during the pandemic while liver transplantation rates were not significant impacted.

Abstract
Background Granulomatosis with Polyangiitis (GPA) is a rare necrotizing ANCA-associated vasculitis characterized by inflammation in small-sized arteries. GPA often presents with a triad of a) upper (nasal obstruction, sinusitis, crusting rhinitis) and lower respiratory tract (lung nodules, alveolar hemorrhage) b) systemic vasculitis and c) kidney involvement (necrotizing glomerulonephritis). However, gastrointestinal involvement is exceedingly rare and only occurs in about 5-11% of GPA cases. Specifically, recurrent acute pancreatitis is even more uncommon. Purpose To raise awareness about systemic vasculitides in cases of idiopathic acute pancreatitis Method A 48-year-old female was seen in an outpatient gastroenterology clinic for recurrent idiopathic pancreatitis. She reported a six-month history of intermittent sharp epigastric pain associated with a rise in lipase. The patient noted having episodes of acute sinusitis shortly prior to the onset of her epigastric pain. Her initial labwork revealed normal creatinine and liver enzymes, elevated total bilirubin 24, lipase 316 and mildly high CRP 16.1 and ESR 27 which normalized on repeat blood work. Abdominal US was unremarkable with no gallstones, intra- or extrahepatic duct dilatation. An abdominal MRI revealed segmental enlargement of the distal tail/body of the pancreas consistent with resolving focal pancreatitis. A follow-up MRI 5 weeks later revealed progression of pancreatic swelling and intermittent narrowing of the pancreatic duct. These findings were suspicious for an inflammatory process such as autoimmune pancreatitis. The patient then underwent EUS-guided examination and FNA of her pancreas. Pathology revealed focal chronic pancreatitis with fibrosis and mild lymphocytic infiltrate, but was not suggestive of autoimmune pancreatitis. She was then treated empirically with a 3-month course of prednisone and had significant improvement in her symptoms and interval resolution of pancreatic inflammation on repeat MRI. After discontinuation of her steroids, her symptoms recurred with intermittent epigastric pain, facial pain and sinusitis. She was then seen by rheumatology and an autoimmune panel was ordered. Result(s) Autoimmune work-up revelead positive anti-PR3 (27 RU/ml), negative anti-MPO and normal IgG-4 levels. Ultimately a diagnosis of limited GPA, which spares the kidneys, was made given the patient’s clinical presentation and positive anti-PR3 antibody. Since there was no life-threatening organ involvement, she was elected to start methotrexate therapy and had significant improvement in her symptoms. The plan is to stay on methotrexate for at least 24 months and have regular follow-up to ensure clinical stability. Conclusion(s) Acute pancreatitis is a rare initial presentation of GPA vasculitis. It is important to consider autoimmune disease and systemic vasculitides in cases of idiopathic pancreatitis after ruling out common causes. Early diagnosis and therapy allow for high rates of remission and improved survival rates.

Abstract
Background High histologic remission rates have been reported with placebos in randomized controlled trials (RCTs) evaluating ulcerative colitis (UC) therapies and have varied based on trial designs. We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis to quantify placebo histological remission rates and identify factors influencing those rates. Purpose This systematic review aims to improve future trials design and minimize placebo rates in UC trials. Method MEDLINE, EMBASE, and the Cochrane library were searched from inception of the databases until December 2021. We included placebo-controlled RCTs of adult patients with UC treated with aminosalicylates, corticosteroids, immunosuppressives, biologics, and small molecules. We pooled estimates using a random-effects model and performed subgroup analysis as well as meta-regression to evaluate the effect of different covariates on placebo rates. Result(s) Thirty-three studies (30 induction and 3 maintenance) were included. The overall placebo histological remission rate was 15.7% [95% CI 12.9-19%] across all 33 studies (Figure). High heterogeneity was observed among studies with I2 = 62.10%. In induction studies, the pooled estimate of histological remission was 15.8% [95% CI 12.7-19.5%], while in maintenance studies the pooled estimate was 14.5% [95% CI 8.4-24%]. Subgroup analysis revealed statistically significant differences in placebo rates when accounting for background medications, the intervention drug class, and disease severity [p= 0.041, 0.025, and 0.025, respectively]. There was no statistical difference between induction vs. maintenance studies or between different histological scales [p= 0.771, and 0.075, respectively]. Meta-regression showed similar results except that the therapy used was not statistically significant [p-value= 0.059]. Image ![]()
Conclusion(s) Placebo histological remission rates range from 13-19% in UC RCTs, but studies are highly heterogeneous. Factors found to influence placebo rates include presence of background medications, the drug used and the disease severity in UC patients. These observations have important implications in informing future trial designs to minimize placebo rates and reduce heterogeneity. Disclosure of Interest M. Youssef: None Declared, K.

Abstract
Abstract
Study question
Is biosimilar Follitropin alpha preparations for controlled ovarian stimulation in ovulatory women undergoing IVF, is effective as as compared to the originator
Summary answer
Biosimilar preparations of Follitropin alpha are probably associated with lower clinical pregnancy and ongoing pregnancy rates than the originator.
What is known already
As the patent expired for the originator, there was increasing interest in developing biosimilar follitropin alpha. Biosimilar medicinal product is a biological product developed to be highly similar to the already approved biological medicine (reference medicine) (EMA 2017). Biosimilar recombinant FSH preparations are manufactured in Chinese hamster ovary cells with a fully human glycosylation – which may differ slightly between products – and represent products with demonstrated similarity in physicochemical characteristics, efficacy, and safety to those of Gonal-F® (European Medicines Agency 2013; Weise et al 2011; Lammerich et al 2015 a, b; Wolzt et al., 2016; Abd-Elaziz et al., 2017).
Study design, size, duration
Systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs).
Participants/materials, setting, methods
Partticipants
Infertile women undergoing in vitro fertilization (IVF).
Setting
Not applicable.
Methods
Five databases were searched through Jan.2022 for RCTs comparing the biosimilar Follitropin alpha to the originator for controlled ovarian stimulation and reporting clinical IVF outcomes, not restricted by language. We used the The Cochrane Risk of Bias 2 tool was used to assess the quality of the included studies.
Main Outcome Measure
clinical pregnancy rate and the number of retrieved oocytes.
Main results and the role of chance
The search retrieved 111 records. Six studies met the eligibility criteria and were included in the qualitative synthesis and the meta-analysis. Compared to the originator Follitropin alpha, biosimilars are probably associated with lower clinical pregnancy rates (RR 0.81, 95% CI 0.69 to 0.94, I2 = 0%, 6 RCTs, 1453 participants, moderate-quality evidence), but there was no evidence of a difference in the number of retrieved oocytes (MD 0.69, 95% CI -0.09 to 1.46, I2 = 0%, 6 RCTs, 1353 participants, moderate-quality evidence). We are uncertain of the effect of biosimilar preparations on live birth which may indicate no difference or serious harm (RR 0.86, 95% CI 0.71 to 1.05, I2 = 0%, 5 RCTs, 978 participants, low-quality evidence). Both preparations were similar in terms of OHSS (RR 1.25, 95% CI 0.89 to 1.76, 5 RCTs, 1353 participants, moderate-quality evidence) and adverse events (RR 1.09, 95% CI 0.92 to 1.30, 4RCTs, 981 participants, moderate-quality evidence).
Limitations, reasons for caution
Since it is based on a small number of RCTs and patients, therefore the findings in terms of pregnancy rates, number of oocytes and OHSS are derived from 6 RCTs . Thus, these low numbers limit the validity of the findings and indicate that more high-quality studies are needed.
Wider implications of the findings
Couples should be counseled for the possible inferiority of these preparations compared to the originator. More RCTs are required to confirm these results, and these RCTs should consider the cost-effectiveness outcomes in their designs and analyses.

Abstract
Despite the cariogenic role of Candida suggested from recent studies, oral Candida acquisition in children at high risk for early childhood caries (ECC) and its association with cariogenic bacteria Streptococcus mutans remain unclear. Although ECC disproportionately afflicts socioeconomically disadvantaged and racial-minority children, microbiological studies focusing on the underserved group are scarce. Our prospective cohort study examined the oral colonization of Candida and S. mutans among 101 infants exclusively from a low-income and racial-minority background in the first year of life. The Cox hazard proportional model was fitted to assess factors associated with the time to event of the emergence of oral Candida and S. mutans. Oral Candida colonization started as early as 1 wk among 13% of infants, increased to 40% by 2 mo, escalated to 48% by 6 mo, and remained the same level until 12 mo. S. mutans in saliva was detected among 20% infants by 12 mo. The emergence of S. mutans by year 1 was 3.5 times higher (hazard ratio [HR], 3.5; confidence interval [CI], 1.1-11.3) in infants who had early colonization of oral Candida compared to those who were free of oral Candida (P = 0.04) and 3 times higher (HR, 3.0; CI, 1.3-6.9) among infants whose mother had more than 3 decayed teeth (P = 0.01), even after adjusting demographics, feeding, mother's education, and employment status. Infants' salivary S. mutans abundance was positively correlated with infants' Candida albicans (P < 0.01) and Candida krusei levels (P < 0.05). Infants' oral colonization of C. albicans was positively associated with mother's oral C. albicans carriage and education (P < 0.01) but negatively associated with mother's employment status (P = 0.01). Future studies are warranted to examine whether oral Candida modulates the oral bacterial community as a whole to become cariogenic during the onset and progression of ECC, which could lead to developing novel ECC predictive and preventive strategies from a fungal perspective.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Hormonal imbalances have been associated with various sexual dysfunction disorders. In particular, the connection of hyperthyroidism has been discovered to correlate to premature ejaculation (PE) but has yet to been thoroughly elucidated. As one of the most frequently self-reported sexual dysfunctions, it is imperative for health care professionals to evaluate possible underlying conditions in regard to treatment options for individuals with PE. OBJECTIVES To review the literature regarding hyperthyroidism effects on sexual dysfunction, with a focus on hyperthyroidism and PE. METHODS A literature review of articles and clinical studies was performed to define the classification, pathophysiology, diagnostic considerations, and management of hyperthyroidism on PE. Search terms included "hyperthyroidism" and/or "premature ejaculation," "treatment of premature ejaculation," "defining premature ejaculation," and "management of premature ejaculation." RESULTS To improve the accuracy of diagnosing PE, there needs to be a set definition amongst the different guidelines, as using these guidelines can help determine possible underlying etiologies of PE. The correlation of hyperthyroidism and PE has been described in a limited number of studies. It has been reported that individuals with hyperthyroidism are much more likely to have PE than individuals with euthryoidism. Management of hyperthyroidism has been shown to alleviate the symptoms of PE. CONCLUSION Further understanding of hyperthyroidism as an underlying cause of PE could lead to increased efficacy of treatment and management of PE. Tannenbaum J, Youssef M, Attia AS, et al.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Minimally invasive adrenalectomy is a challenging procedure in obese patients. Few recent studies have advocated against robot-assisted adrenalectomy, particularly in obese patients. This study aims to compare operative outcomes between the robotic and laparoscopic adrenalectomy, particularly in obese patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS A retrospective analysis was performed on all consecutive patients undergoing adrenalectomy for benign disease by a single surgeon using either a laparoscopic or robotic approach. Adrenal surgeries for adrenal cancer were excluded. Demographics, operative time, length of hospital stays, estimated blood loss (EBL), and intraoperative and postoperative complications were evaluated. Patients were divided into 2 groups; obese and nonobese. A sub-analysis was performed comparing robotic and laparoscopic approaches in obese and nonobese patients. RESULTS Out of 120, 55 (45.83%) were obese (body mass index ≥ 30 kg/m2). 14 (25.45%) of the obese patients underwent a laparoscopic approach, and 41 (74.55%) underwent a robotic approach. Operative times were longer in the obese vs. nonobese groups (173.30 ± 72.90 minutes and 148.20 ± 61.68 minutes, P = .04) and were associated with less EBL (53.77 ± 82.48 vs. 101.30 ± 122, P = .01). The robotic approach required a longer operative time when compared to the laparoscopic approach (187 ± 72.42 minutes vs. 126.60 ± 54.55 minutes, P = .0102) in the obese but was associated with less blood loss (29.02 ± 51.05 mL vs. 138.30 ± 112.20 mL, P < .01) and shorter hospital stay (1.73 ± 1.23 days vs. 3.17 ± 1.27 days, P < .001). CONCLUSION Robot-assisted adrenal surgery is safe in obese patients and appears to be longer; however, it provides improvements in postoperative outcomes, including EBL and shorter hospital stay.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction/Objective
Testicular germ cell tumors (TCGT) with somatic mismatch repair pathway defects have shown to have worse prognosis and response to therapy. Immunohistochemical staining pattern of MMR panel was classified in a previous study as low (absent or minimal) and high staining (moderate or high staining), with the low staining pattern suggestive of poor prognosis and high risk of recurrence. Herein, we studied the MMR staining pattern in TGCT and lymph node metastasis.
Methods
21 TGCT were included in the study: 10 primary testicular tumors and 11 unrelated retroperitoneal lymph node metastasis. All cases were analyzed for MMR protein expression by immunohistochemistry. Clinical, histopathological and follow-up was obtained in all cases. Retained MLH1, MSH2, MSH6, and PMS2 was defined as nuclear staining. Loss of expression was defined as absence of nuclear staining within tumor cells with retained expression in internal control cells, including benign testicular tissue, stromal cells, and infiltrating lymphocytes.
Results
All primary testicular tumors were mixed GCT: embryonal carcinomas was present in 5, yolk sac tumor in 3 and teratoma in 6 cases. One (10%) of the primary tumors showed focal loss of MLH1 and PMS2 expression in a focus of embryonal carcinoma. All lymph node metastases consisted of teratoma. Seven (64%) metastatic cases showed scattered areas of focal MLH1 loss, 5 (45%) of which showed also focal loss of PMS2. High staining for MSH2 and MSH6 was detected in all 21 cases.
Conclusion
In our small cohort, focal loss of MLH1 and PMS2 was detected in 10% of primary TGCT, compared to focal loss of MLH1 and PMS2 is 64% and 45%, respectively, of metastatic tumors, suggesting a possible relationship between heterogeneous MLH1 and PMS2 expression and retroperitoneal lymph node metastasis. The current cohort will be expanded to include additional cases.

Abstract
Plastic surgeons offer various options for breast reconstruction based on patient preference, underlying disease, and comorbidities. An alternative form of breast reconstruction exists, which includes tissue expansion with tissue expander and subsequent fat grafting without the use of implant or flap. We retrospectively reviewed the breast cancer patients who underwent breast reconstruction at our institution to identify those with pure fat grafting. Demographic information, complications, operative details, and BREAST-Q scores were abstracted. From 2010-2015, 10 patients were identified. Patients with unilateral or bilateral mastectomy followed by pure fat grafting had a median of 3.5 or 4 sessions and a total median fat grafting volume of 380 or 974.5 cc, respectively. Patients were followed for 12 months, and no complications or breast cancer recurrences were noted. Finally, BREAST-Q scores at the 12-month follow-up were comparable to the preoperative values.

Abstract
Recently, Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID‐19) pandemic is the most significant global health crisis. In this study, we conducted a meta‐analysis to find the association between liver injuries and the severity of COVID‐19 disease. Online databases, including PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus, and Science direct, were searched to detect relevant publications up to 16 April 2020. Depending on the heterogeneity between studies, a fixed‐ or random‐effects model was applied to pool data. Publication bias Egger's test was also performed. Meta‐analysis of 20 retrospective studies (3428 patients), identified that patients with a severe manifestation of COVID‐19 exhibited significantly higher levels of alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase, and bilirubin values with prolonged prothrombin time. Furthermore, lower albumin level was associated with a severe presentation of COVID‐19. Liver dysfunction was associated with a severe outcome of COVID‐19 disease. Close monitoring of the occurrence of liver dysfunction is beneficial in early warning of unfavorable outcomes. Liver dysfunction was associated with a severe outcome of COVID‐19 Sever cases of COVID‐19 patients have high serum levels of ALT, AST and bilirubin with prolonged prothrombin time. Low serum albumin is associated with a severe presentation of COVID‐19 Close monitoring of the occurrence of liver dysfunction is beneficial in early warning of unfavorable COVID‐19 outcomes.

Abstract
COVID-19’s rapid sweep across the world has caused an extraordinary disruption to the otorhinolaryngology (ORL) profession and its subspecialties including the rhinology section. The present pandemic forced our specialty practitioners to make quick clinical and practice management decisions. Staff safety must receive the highest prioritization along with strategies to provide the highest quality care. The purpose of the present manuscript is to provide a narrative review of the current knowledge and committee practices regarding ORL (including rhinology) professionals' safe practice during COVID-19 pandemic and after reopen process. The present review findings will allow the clinical practitioners to understand the factors involved in reducing the risk of transmission of COVID-19 in the ORL and rhinology settings, personal protective equipment (PPE) for different ORL and rhinology practices and criteria of practice in outpatient clinic (OPC), emergency operations and ORL surgeries. The emerging evidence based on COVID-19 is rapidly changing. Further updates may be needed to this review as new details or evidence emerge. ORL including rhinology doctors should consider the specific conditions of each individual place of work and comply with all applicable legislations.

Abstract
Salmonella Enteritidis (SE) has been the most common Salmonella serotype associated with foodborne infections in the last several years. Dietary applications of yeast-based preparations in feed have shown to reduce Salmonella colonization in chickens augmenting SE control strategies. This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of a mannan-rich yeast cell wall-derived preparation (Actigen®) administered in feed at a rate of 400 g/ton on SE colonization in the cecum and internal organs of commercial layer chickens. Sixteen week-old layer pullets were orally challenged with a selected nalidixic acid resistant SE strain at a dose of 1.7×10^9 colony forming units (CFU) per bird. SE colonization was assessed by evaluating isolation rates from ovary and pooled liver/spleen samples as well as enumeration of SE in cecal pouches one week post-challenge. Recovery rates of SE from the ovaries of directly challenged birds receiving Actigen® were significantly lower (P <0.02) than those in directly challenged birds fed an unsupplemented control diet. Recovery rates of SE from pooled liver/spleen samples were not significantly different between Actigen®-treated pullets and controls (P = 0.22). Using direct plate count methods, cecal SE concentrations were 1 log10 lower (P <0.001) in challenged pullets in the Actigen®-supplemented group than in the challenged controls. The SE concentration distributions in the ceca were similar in groups testing positive and groups testing negative for SE in the ovaries and liver/spleens tissues. As a result, SE concentrations in the ceca could not be directly related to the occurrence or prevalence of SE in these tissues. In conclusion, Actigen® supplementation appears to decrease the prevalence of SE in ovarian tissue and concentrations of SE in cecal contents and may be useful as a tool for reducing the risk of eggshell contamination and transovarian transmission of SE in eggs.

Abstract
Doum palm (Hyphaene thebaica L.) has been reported as one of the most beneficial species worldwide. Its fruits are a good source of fibers, antioxidants, B-complex vitamins, essential minerals, monosaccharides, essential oil and flavonoids. Fruit extract shows anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antimicrobial, anticancer and pharmacological potential. However, there is a lack of investigations dealing with its genetic diversity. Therefore, a collection of twelve mature female palm landraces grown in the botanical garden of Aswan, "Egypt" were used for genetic diversity assessment based on phenotypic and molecular levels. 18 vegetal and chemical traits were evaluated. Fifteen of them showed highly significant variation among the tested landraces. Euclidian-based-dendrogram discriminated the tested landraces based on their phenotypic similarities to three main clusters showing a high level of variability. Molecular analysis using inter simple sequence repeats (ISSR) vis-à-vis start codon targeted (SCoT) polymorphism markers displayed the relationships among the tested landraces molecularly. Both markers showed a reasonable degree of polymorphism, however SCoT was more effective than the ISSR by showing a higher percentage of polymorphism, polymorphism information content, resolving power and diversity index. Cluster analysis based on molecular data showed a clear relationship among the doum landraces. However, ISSR- and SCoT-based dendrograms were slightly different, and completely unlike that based on phenotypic data. Nevertheless, phenotypic and molecular evaluations might complement each other, and by data of both an excellent overview was obtained from principle coordinate analysis. The information herein is valuable and considered as a keystone for further proximate studies on doum genetic diversity to help in improvement and breeding approaches.

Abstract
Abstract
Aims
The Acute Cardiac Care Association (ACCA)–European Association of Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (EAPCI) Registry on ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) of the EurObservational programme (EORP) of the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) registry aimed to determine the current state of the use of reperfusion therapy in ESC member and ESC affiliated countries and the adherence to ESC STEMI guidelines in patients with STEMI.
Methods and results
Between 1 January 2015 and 31 March 2018, a total of 11 462 patients admitted with an initial diagnosis of STEMI according to the 2012 ESC STEMI guidelines were enrolled. Individual patient data were collected across 196 centres and 29 countries. Among the centres, there were 136 percutaneous coronary intervention centres and 91 with cardiac surgery on-site. The majority of centres (129/196) were part of a STEMI network. The main objective of this study was to describe the demographic, clinical, and angiographic characteristics of patients with STEMI. Other objectives include to assess management patterns and in particular the current use of reperfusion therapies and to evaluate how recommendations of most recent STEMI European guidelines regarding reperfusion therapies and adjunctive pharmacological and non-pharmacological treatments are adopted in clinical practice and how their application can impact on patients’ outcomes. Patients will be followed for 1 year after admission.
Conclusion
The ESC ACCA-EAPCI EORP ACS STEMI registry is an international registry of care and outcomes of patients hospitalized with STEMI. It will provide insights into the contemporary patient profile, management patterns, and 1-year outcome of patients with STEMI.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Residual curvature, scarred or absent urethral plate, shortage of skin, and paucity of vascularized tissues and flaps are all obstacles to overcome during repair of redo and cripple hypospadias after failed reconstruction. Limited articles address the outcome of repair of these cases using different grafts. OBJECTIVE An analysis of outcomes and complications after the repair of redo and cripple hypospadias in a cohort of children operated by a single surgeon is presented, and data are retrieved from a prospectively designed database. STUDY DESIGN Thirty-one children with a median age of 96 months (18-216, interquartile range [IQR]: 78), who underwent previous surgeries three to five times, were operated in the period from late 2011 to August 2017 in a single center by a single surgeon (first author); the first-stage repair was performed by using an inner prepuce graft in three children and oral grafts in 28 children. Penile straightening by degloving and removal of ventral scarred tissues are followed by development of glanular wings and grafting of the ventral surface. RESULTS Eleven distal penile hypospadias and 20 posterior hypospadias were operated. First-stage repair was revised in three children; 25 children, eight distal and 17 posterior hypospadias, underwent second-stage repair with a median age of 84 months (18-216, IQR: 60). The success rate after the second-stage repair was 56% (14 children), and complications were encountered in 11 children in the form of penoscrotal fistulae in four, complete dehiscence in one, and glanular dehiscence in six children. After closure of fistulae, the overall success rate increased to 72%. Although complications were more common among children with posterior hypospadias (nine children) than children with distal hypospadias (two children), no statistical significance was reached (p = .234), with no effect of age on complications (p = .233), no effect of the position of the meatus on glanular dehiscence (p = .624), and no effect of age on glanular dehiscence (p = .114). CONCLUSION Repair of redo and crippled hypospadias using staged graft repair in children could be achieved with a satisfactory overall success rate of 72%. Glanular dehiscence is the main complication; however, it is not considered by parents of children in the series, necessitating intervention. The lowest complication rate is expected among those with a position of the meatus more distal, however, not proven statistically in the series.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Several studies have explored functional outcomes after rectal cancer surgery, but bowel dysfunction after sigmoid resection for cancer has hardly been considered. The aim of this study was to identify the prevalence and pattern of bowel dysfunction after resection for sigmoid cancer, and the impact of bowel function on quality of life (QoL) by comparison with patients who had polypectomy for cancer. METHODS This was a national cross-sectional study. Data were collected from the Danish Colorectal Cancer Group database, and a questionnaire regarding bowel function and European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) QLQ-C30 QoL questionnaire was sent to all Danish colonic cancer survivors treated with sigmoid resection or polypectomy between 2001 and 2014. RESULTS A total of 3295 patients (3061 sigmoid resection, 234 polypectomy) responded to the questionnaire (response rate 63·8 per cent). Twelve bowel symptoms were more prevalent after sigmoid resection, including: excessive straining, fragmentation, bloating, nocturnal defaecation, bowel false alarm, liquid stool incontinence, incomplete evacuation and sense of outlet obstruction. QoL impairment owing to bowel symptoms was reported in 16·6 per cent of patients in the resection group and 10·1 per cent after polypectomy (P = 0·008). Obstructed defaecation symptoms (ODS) were encountered significantly more often after sigmoid resection than following polypectomy (17·9 versus 7·3 per cent; P < 0·001). In the resection group, patients with ODS had substantial impairment on most aspects of QoL assessed by the EORTC QLQ-C30. CONCLUSION Sigmoid resection for cancer is associated with an increased risk of long-term bowel dysfunction; obstructed defaecation is prevalent and associated with substantial impairment of QoL.
