Abstract
Abstract
Background
Sarcopenia is increasingly recognised to impact the quality of life and patient outcomes. The relationship with brain frailty is unknown.
Objectives
Assess if muscle mass at C3 correlates with muscle mass at L3 on routine trauma imaging. Assess for associations between muscle-mass, brain-frailty, and Clinical Frailty Scale (CFS) on routine trauma imaging.
Method
Routine trauma-series CT scans were retrospectively analysed for patients aged ≥16-years-old admitted to Queen-Elizabeth-Hospital in January2020. Paravertebral, sternocleidomastoid, and total muscle cross-sectional-area (CSA) at C3 (C3-SMM), and total psoas muscle CSA (TPA), total muscle CSA (L3-SMM), and total adipose CSA at L3 were calculated. Brain-frailty scores were calculated assessing for leukoaraiosis, cerebral atrophy, and old vascular lesions/infarcts. CFS was calculated retrospectively from clinical notes. We assessed for correlation against age, CFS, muscle-mass, and brain-frailty using Pearson’s correlations.
Results
We included 111 patients in this study (mean age 49, SD 25.6; 65.8% female). C3-SMM strongly correlated with L3-SMM (r=0.746, p<0.001). Paravertebral and sternocleidomastoid CSA correlated with C3-SMM (paravertebral: r=0.814, p<0.001; sternocleidomastoid: r=0.814, p<0.001). TPA strongly correlated with L3- SMM (r=0.800, p<0.001). Sternocleidomastoid CSA and TPA both negatively correlated moderately with age (sternocleidomastoid: r=−0.460, p<0.001; TPA: r=−0.468, p<0.001), CFS (sternocleidomastoid: r=−0.414, p<0.001; TPA: r=−0.431, p<0.001), and brain frailty (sternocleidomastoid: r=−0.395, p<0.001; TPA: r=−0.436, p<0.001). Adipose CSA at L3 did not correlate with age, CFS, brain-frailty, or muscle-mass.
Conclusions
Muscle-mass at C3 relates to muscle-mass at L3. Muscle-mass on routine trauma-imaging is negatively associated with age, CFS, and brain-frailty.

Abstract
We present a new four-step feedback procedure to study the full dynamics of a nonlinear dynamical system, namely, the logistic map. We show that by using this procedure, the chaotic behavior of the logistic map can be controlled easily and rapidly or the system can be made stable for higher values of the population growth parameter. We utilize various dynamical techniques (orbit evolution, time series analysis, bifurcation diagrams, and Lyapunov exponents) to analyze the dynamics of the logistic map. Additionally, we adopt the switching strategy to control chaos or to increase the stability performance of the logistic map. Finally, we propose a modified traffic control model to enable rapid control of unexpected traffic on the road. The results of this model are supported by a physical interpretation. The model is found to be more efficient than existing models of Lo and Cho [J. Franklin Inst. 342, 839-851 (2005)] and Ashish et al. [Nonlinear Dyn. 94, 959-975 (2018)]. This work provides a novel feedback procedure that facilitates rapid control of chaotic behavior and increases the range of stability of dynamical systems.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Insulin-like growth factor receptor (IGF-1R) has been studied as an oncologic target in soft tissue sarcoma (STS), but its role in sarcoma biology is unclear. Anti-IGF-1R antibody cixutumumab demonstrated acceptable toxicity but limited activity as a single agent in STS. We carried out a dose-escalation study of cixutumumab with doxorubicin to evaluate safety and dosing of the combination. PATIENTS AND METHODS Eligible patients with advanced STS were treated with cixutumumab intravenously on days 1/8/15 at one of three dose levels (A: 1 mg/kg, B: 3 mg/kg, C: 6 mg/kg) with doxorubicin at 75 mg/m(2) as a 48 h infusion on day 1 of a 21 day cycle. After six cycles of the combination, patients could receive cixutumumab alone. The Time-to-Event Continual Reassessment Method was used to estimate the probability of dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) and to assign patients to the dose with an estimated probability of DLT≤20%. RESULTS Between September 2008 and January 2012, 30 patients with advanced STS received a median of six cycles of therapy (range <1-22). Two DLTs were observed, grade 3 mucositis (dose level B) and grade 4 hyperglycemia (dose level C). Grade 2 and 3 reduced left ventricular ejection fraction was seen in three and two patients, respectively. Five partial responses were observed, and estimated progression-free survival was 5.3 months (95% confidence interval 3.0-6.3) in 26 response-assessable patients. Immunohistochemical staining of 11 available tumor samples for IGF-1R and phospho-IGF-1R was not significantly different among responders and non-responders, and serum analysis of select single-nucleotide polymorphisms did not predict for cardiotoxicity. CONCLUSION The maximum tolerated dose was doxorubicin 75 mg/m(2) on day 1 and cixitumumab 6 mg/kg on days 1/8/15 of a 21 day cycle. Cardiac toxicity was observed and should be monitored in subsequent studies, which should be considered in STS only if a predictive biomarker of benefit to anti-IGF-1R therapy is identified. TRIAL REGISTRATION ClinicalTrials.gov:NCT00720174.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: BMN 673 is the most potent and specific inhibitor of poly-ADP ribose polymerase (PARP) 1 and 2 in clinical development (IC50<1nM). In BRCA-related tumors, which are genetically dependent on PARP-mediated DNA repair by base excision repair, PARP inhibition induces synthetic lethality. Initial phase 1 results have been presented (de Bono et al JCO 31:5s, 2013 suppl; abstr 2580), showing good tolerability and anti-tumor activity with an MTD on a daily, oral dosing schedule of 1000 μ/day.
Methods: In this 2-stage study, patients with solid tumors including BRCA-related cancers, were enrolled during dose-escalation followed by an expansion phase at the MTD in breast, ovarian, and pancreatic cancer patients with deleterious germline BRCA mutations and in small cell lung cancer and Ewing sarcoma patients to further characterize safety and efficacy. This abstract summarizes demographics and safety for all patients and efficacy for patients with BRCA-related cancers.
Results: As of 17May2013, a total of 1 pancreatic, 18 breast (17F/1M), and 28 ovarian cancer pts with germline BRCA mutations were enrolled at doses from 100-1100 μg/day. All breast cancer patients were treated from 900-1100 μg/day. The median (range) age for all 70 patients is 51.5 (18-81), PS 0 (0-1) and # of prior therapies 4 (1-13), with 47 patients having deleterious BRCA mutations. An MTD of 1000 μg/day was established with thrombocytopenia being dose-limiting. Related adverse events occurring in > 10% of all 70 patients included fatigue, nausea, alopecia, anemia, thrombocytopenia and neutropenia. One patient has had related grade 4 thrombocytopenia. Grade 3 related AE's included fatigue in 1 patient (1%), anemia and thrombocytopenia in 9 each (13%) and neutropenia in 4 (6%). Dose reductions occurred in 11 pts due to myelosuppression. No patients discontinued for adverse events.

Five of 12 breast cancer pts with no prior platinum have responded.
Conclusions: BMN 673 is well tolerated with impressive anti-tumor activity in pts with deleterious germ line BRCA mutations. Myelosuppression and fatigue are the primary side effects associated with need for dose reduction. A phase 3 trial in metastatic breast cancer patients with deleterious germ line BRCA mutations is planned with single-agent, once-daily oral dosing of 1000 μg (1 mg) per day.

Abstract
e13538 Background: The combination of the tyrosine kinase inhibitor imatinib with cytotoxic chemotherapy targets multiple pathways of tumor progression. In a previous phase I study, the combination of gemcitabine and imatinib was tolerable and had broad activity. The maximally tolerated dose (MTD) was gemcitabine 1500 mg/m2/150 minute and imatinib 400 mg days 1–5, 8–12, and 15–19. Given the activity seen when combining gemcitabine and docetaxel in some solid tumors, this phase I trial studied the addition of docetaxel to gemcitabine/imatinib. Methods: Twenty patients with relapsed/refractory solid tumors were enrolled in this IRB-approved study at the Cancer Institute of New Jersey and University of Michigan. The mean age was 64, mean ECOG PS 1. Five patients had lung cancer; 5, sarcoma; 3 ampullary-biliary tumors; 2 mesothelioma and bladder, 3, other. Imatinib was administered at 400 mg daily on days 1–5, 8–12 and 15–19. Gemcitabine was started at 600 mg/m2 at the fixed dose infusion of 10 mg/min on days 3 and 10 and docetaxel at 30 mg/m2 on day 10. Results: Because of unexpectedly severe hematological toxicities seen with escalating either gemcitabine or docetaxel, the protocol was amended to eliminate days 15–19 of imatinib. The MTD is gemcitabine 600 mg/m2, on days 3 and 10, docetaxel 30 mg/m2 on day 10, and imatinib 400 mg PO given on days 1–5 and 8–12. The dose limiting toxicities were neutropenic fever, pleural and pericardial effusion after cycle 1 of chemotherapy. The best response achieved was stable disease at 6 cycles in one patient each with mesothelioma and non small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) at the MTD. Two other patients with NSCLC had stable disease at 4 cycles. Discussion: An unexpectedly low MTD for this triplet was identified, an outcome different from prior experience with the doublets gemcitabine/imatinib or gemcitabine/docetaxel where much higher dosages are tolerated. Our results suggest possible drug-drug interactions that amplify toxicities with little initial evidence of improved tumor control. Given the unexpectedly high toxicity of the combination of gemcitabine, docetaxel and imatinib at low dosages, further development of this regimen is not indicated. [Table: see text]

Abstract
10524 Background: Reolysin is a Dearing strain, naturally occurring, ubiquitous human reovirus. The PKR (double stranded RNA-activated protein kinase) is inhibited and therefore the virus replicates specifically in transformed cells possessing an activated Ras pathway producing lysis. In vitro and in vivo studies with Reolysin in sarcoma cell lines revealed significant antitumor activity. Methods: This phase II open-label, single agent study was designed to characterize the efficacy and safety of Reolysin given IV every 28 days in patients (pts) with bone or soft tissue sarcoma with lung metastasis using a Simon two-stage design. 38 pts were accrued to the first stage. If 1 or more pts experience clinical benefit (prolonged SD > 6 months, partial or complete response) up to 52 pts could be accrued. The agent will be considered active if 3 or more responses or prolonged SD are observed. Results: Since July 2007, 43 pts age 19–76 (median 49) were enrolled (20 female) and received a total of 141 cycles (range 1–18). All pts had performance status 1 (29 pts) or 0 (14 pts). 38 pts received prior chemotherapy, radiotherapy, biological agents or combinations for their metastatic disease, 15 pts received more than 3 chemotherapy regimens. The sarcoma subtypes included: synovial sarcoma (13 pts), osteosarcoma (7 pts), leiomyosarcoma (7 pts), MFH (5 pts), Ewing/PNET (1 pt), chordoma (1 pt), others (9 pts). Side effects were mild to moderate (grade 1–2) and included constitutional symptoms fever, chills, fatigue. Two pts experienced respiratory side effects (cough and dyspnea) and 2 pts had diarrhea. Hematological side effects included grade 2–3 neutropenia (6 pts) and grade 2 thrombocytopenia (2 pts). One patient experienced grade 2 AST elevation. 33 pts are evaluable for response to date: 14 pts (42%) had SD for 2+ months including 5 pts having SD for more than 6 months. Conclusions: Utilization of single agent reovirus for treatment of sarcoma is a novel and unique therapeutic approach to date. Reolysin is well tolerated and shows promise for the treatment of metastatic sarcoma. Primary efficacy goals have been met. Accrual is ongoing to a total of 52 pts. [Table: see text]

Abstract
9515 Background: Aggressive fibromatosis (desmoid tumors, AF) are uncommon, locally aggressive, connective tissue neoplasms. Existing literature on systemic treatment of AF is sparse and consists mostly of case reports and small case-series. Based on previous observation of regression of AF treated with IM and tumoral expression of IM targets, SARC (Sarcoma Alliance for Research through Collaboration) included the treatment of AF onto a multi-institution phase II trial of IM in sarcoma. Here we report early clinical and laboratory results of the AF group. Methods: Eligible patients had histologically proven AF, unresectable or difficult to resect without considerable functional impairment. Patients were treated with IM 300 mg po BID (BSA≥1.5m2). The primary endpoint was complete (CR) or partial response(PR) at two months or stable disease (SD) or better at four months. Tumor DNA was extracted from available formalin fixed paraffin embedded tissue specimens and analyzed via allelic PCR and genomic DNA sequence analysis for specific point mutations in PDGFRα exons 12/14/18, PDGFRβ exons 12/18, KIT exons 9/11/13/17, and bRAF. Results: 51 patients were enrolled from 10/02 to 12/05 at 5 institutions, with 45 patients currently evaluable. The median age is 37 (range 14–67), and median number of prior therapies is 1 (range 0–3). 36 patients (80%) reached the primary endpoint of CR/PR at 2 months or SD or better at 4 months. The median time to treatment failure is 6.8 months (95% C.I. 5.8–17.1). Thus far, the maximum change in the largest dimension of the tumor ranged from a 21% increase to a 45% decrease. In 22 available tumor specimens, deletions within PDGFRαE12 and E18 were noted in 1 and 3 patients, respectively, while a wildtype genotype was found in other regions. Conclusions: IM has activity in AF, the mechanism of which remains unclear. While this is the largest reported phase II trial of AF, further improvement in evaluating clinical efficacy in this disease is clearly necessary. We plan an analysis of the maximum change in largest tumor dimension for each patient, which will be particularly beneficial in AF as responses often occur late. We have not as yet identified a laboratory predictor of clinical benefit. Further investigation of other potential targets in fresh tissue is warranted. [Table: see text]

Abstract
Despite a dramatic increase in research on eating-related pathologies, gaps remain in our understanding of the factors responsible for the development and maintenance of dysfunctional attitudes and behaviour related to weight and eating among adolescents. A study was therefore conducted to compare eating and weight concerns among underweight, normal-weight and obese affluent adolescent girls in New Delhi. The sample comprised fifty underweight, fifty normal-weight and thirty obese girls, 16-18 years of age. Information was collected about their body image perception, weight concerns and eating attitudes by a well-structured questionnaire. Dietary intake was determined by 24 h recall and a food-frequency questionnaire. Body size was adjudged by measurements of weight, height, waist, hip and mid upper arm circumferences, and the BMI and waist : hip ratio were determined. Of the subjects, 99.2 % had a gynoid pattern of fat distribution. Concerns about excess weight were prevalent among the adolescent girls, even among those who were normal-weight and underweight. The level of satisfaction with body size decreased with increase in weight. Dieting behaviour was reported in a higher number of obese (76.6 %) compared with normal-weight (38 %) and underweight (14 %) girls. Of the obese girls, 43.3 % were found to be at a significantly (P=0.00109) greater risk of developing anorexia in the future. Characteristic dietary features of adolescence, such as missing meals, snacking and eating out, were observed. While the diets of most of the subjects were adequate in Ca, thiamin, riboflavin and vitamin C, they were found to be deficient in energy, protein, Fe, niacin, vitamin A and fibre. Thus, it is important to recognize that weight concerns and dissatisfaction with body size may pose a threat to a healthy nutritional state, and may develop into precursors of a later eating disturbance.

Abstract
Contrast echocardiography improves left ventricular (LV) endocardial border delineation by enhancement of the blood-tissue interface. In particular, the contrast appearing within the LV chamber exhibits characteristic flow patterns over the cardiac cycle, which may be related to the surrounding myocardial wall motion. To determine the relation between the LV intracavitary contrast flow pattern and surrounding wall motion, we reviewed the contrast-enhanced images of 348 consecutive patients studied at rest. We defined 2 different patterns of intracavitary contrast flow as visualized from apical views: a swift, vertical, and homogeneous flow towards the apex (pattern A), and a distinctly protracted, swirling, and heterogeneous flow (pattern B). Images recorded on videotapes were reviewed and the type of pattern (A or B) was determined within the initial 30 to 45 seconds of contrast appearance in the left ventricle. Contrast flow patterns interpreted by independent reviewer were then compared with the interpretation of the LV segmental and global function in each patient. Results demonstrate that 224 of 245 (91%) patients exhibiting pattern A had normal LV segmental function. Furthermore, all but 1 patient (102 of 103) with pattern B had > or =1 wall motion abnormality (p <0.0001). Contrast flow pattern B was observed irrespective of the location of LV wall motion abnormality. Global LV function was normal in 93% of patients exhibiting pattern A, whereas varying degrees of LV dysfunction were noted in 83% of patients with pattern B (p <0.0001). The presence of mitral regurgitation (p = 0.46), aortic insufficiency (p = 0.066), or mitral inflow Doppler abnormality (p = 0.102) was not significantly associated with either pattern. Thus, during contrast echocardiography, the LV intracavitary contrast flow pattern complements the assessment of global and segmental LV function.

Abstract
Mitral valve repair in children has the advantage of avoiding mitral valve replacement with its attendant need for anticoagulation and reoperation. Seventy-nine children between the ages of 2 months and 17 years (mean 4.9 years) underwent mitral valve repair between May 1982 and April 1993. There were five patients with mitral stenosis and 74 patients with mitral regurgitation, and 19 children were less than 2 years of age. Patients were divided into anatomic subgroups on the basis of the primary cardiac pathologic condition. Forty-three had severe mitral regurgitation, 21 had moderate mitral regurgitation, and 12 patients with primum atrial-septal defect and 2 patients with univentricular hearts had minimal to moderate mitral regurgitation. Associated cardiac anomalies were present in 68 patients and 85% of the patients required concomitant intracardiac procedures. The methods of mitral valve repair included annuloplasty in 68 (86%), repair of cleft leaflet in 41 (52%), chordal shortening in 9 (11%), triangular leaflet resection in 8 (10%), splitting of papillary muscles with resection of subvalvular apparatus in 7 (9%), and chordal substitution in 1 (1%). The technique of annuloplasty was modified to allow for annular growth. Follow-up was available from 1 to 10 years (mean 4 +/- 2.5 years). There were three early deaths (4%), all occurring as a result of low output cardiac failure in patients with minimal postoperative mitral regurgitation. Three late deaths (4%) occurred in patients with persistent moderate to severe mitral regurgitation and progressive cardiac failure and eight patients (10%) required either rerepair or replacement of the mitral valve. Actuarial survival was 94% at 1 year, 84% at 2 years, and 82% at 5 years, and actuarial freedom from reoperation was 89% at 8 years. All patients received postoperative echocardiography with 82% having minimal to no mitral regurgitation and 98% of long-term surviving patients being free of symptoms. We conclude that mitral valve repair can be done with low early and late mortality. The need for reoperation is relatively low and valve growth has occurred with the use of a modified annuloplasty.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Concern over myocardial damage from simultaneous arterial (antegrade) and coronary sinus (retrograde) perfusion has led to alternating between these delivery routes to maximize their individual benefits. Based upon predominant retrograde drainage via Thebesian veins, this study: (1) confirms experimentally the safety of simultaneous arterial and coronary sinus perfusion; and (2) reports initial clinical application of this combined strategy in 155 consecutive patients. EXPERIMENTAL Five mini-pigs (25 to 30 kg) underwent 1 hour of aortic clamping with simultaneous aortic and coronary sinus perfusion at 200 mL/min with normal blood (37 degrees C) before and after 30 minutes of perfusion with either warm (37 degrees C) or cold (4 degrees C) blood cardioplegia. Coronary sinus pressure was always less than 30 mmHg. There was no right or left ventricular edema, lactate production, or lipid peroxidation as transmyocardial and myocardial conjugated dienes were unaltered, and postbypass recovered left ventricular end-systolic elastance (conductance catheter) and preload recruitable stroke work index 101% +/- 3% and 109% +/- 90%, respectively. CLINICAL: Simultaneous arterial/coronary sinus perfusion was used in 155 consecutive high risk patients (New York Heart Association Class III to IV) undergoing isolated coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) (n = 109) and CABG+valve replacement/repair or aneurysm (n = 46). Included were 16 patients in cardiogenic shock and 24 undergoing reoperation. Mean aortic clamping time averaged 90 +/- 4 minutes (range 30 to 207), with 3.5 +/- 0.1 grafts per patient; all anastomoses were performed with the aorta clamped. Cold intermittent blood cardioplegia was used for distal anastomoses and valve implantation/repair in 123 patients, and warm continuous blood cardioplegia was used in 32 patients. Following a warm cardioplegic reperfusate, all patients received warm noncardioplegic blood perfusion simultaneously via grafts and coronary sinus. Coronary sinus pressure was always less than 40 mmHg. Of 18 patients requiring postoperative mechanical circulatory support (IABP), 16 had IABP placed preoperatively for cardiogenic shock. There were three postoperative myocardial infarctions (2%), and six patients died (3.9% mortality). CONCLUSION These experimental and clinical findings overcome perceived concerns about myocardial damage from simultaneous arterial and coronary sinus perfusion, and suggest this approach may add to the armamentarium of cardioprotective strategies.
