Abstract
BACKGROUND Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) occurs more commonly in military veterans than the general population. Whilst current therapies are effective, up to half of veterans commencing treatment do not complete it. Reconsolidation of Traumatic Memories (RTM) protocol is a novel, easy to train, talking therapy with promising findings. We examine the feasibility of undertaking an efficacy trial of RTM in veterans. METHODS A parallel group, single-centre randomised controlled feasibility trial with a post-completion qualitative interview study. Sixty military veterans were randomised 2:1 to RTM (n = 35) or Trauma Focussed Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT) (n = 25). We aimed to determine the rate of recruitment and retention, understand reasons for attrition, determine data quality and size of efficacy signal. We explored veterans' perceptions of experiences of joining the trial, the research procedures and therapy, and design improvements for future veteran studies. Military veterans with a diagnosis of PTSD or complex PTSD, and clinically significant symptoms, were recruited between January 2020 and June 2021. Primary outcome was feasibility using pre-determined progression criteria alongside PTSD symptoms, with depression, recovery, and rehabilitation as secondary outcomes. Data were collected at baseline, 6, 12, and 20 weeks. Interviews (n = 15) were conducted after 20 weeks. Both therapies were delivered by trained charity sector provider therapists. RESULTS Participants' mean age was 53 years, the mean baseline PTSD symptoms score assessed by the Post-traumatic Stress Checklist (PCL-5) was 57 (range 0-80). Fifty had complex PTSD and 39 had experienced ≥ 4 traumas. Data were analysed at 20 weeks for feasibility outcomes (n = 60) and mental health outcomes (n = 45). Seven of eight progression criteria were met. The RTM group experienced a mean 18-point reduction on the PCL-5. TFCBT group participants experienced a mean reduction of eight points. Forty-eight percent of the RTM group no longer met diagnostic criteria for PTSD compared to 16% in the TFCBT group. All veterans reported largely positive experiences of the therapy and research procedures and ways to improve them. CONCLUSION RTM therapy remains a promising psychological intervention for the treatment of PTSD, including complex PTSD, in military veterans. With specific strengthening, the research protocol is fit for purpose in delivering an efficacy trial. TRIAL REGISTRATION ISRCTN registration no 10314773 on 01.10.2019.

Abstract
CONTEXT Mental health screening as a part of collegiate athletic preparticipation evaluations is becoming increasingly common, but effective and efficient screening depends on a screening tool that can accurately identify mental health symptoms and the need for mental health intervention. DESIGN Case-control study. SETTING Archival clinical records review. PATIENTS OR OTHER PARTICIPANTS Two cohorts of incoming National Collegiate Athletics Association Division I collegiate athletes (N = 353). MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE(S) Athletes completed the Counseling Center Assessment of Psychological Symptoms (CCAPS) Screen as a part of their preparticipation evaluation. These data were then matched with basic demographic data and mental health treatment history from clinical records, and the utility of the CCAPS Screen in determining a future or ongoing need for mental health services was analyzed. RESULTS Score differences for each of the 8 CCAPS Screen scales (Depression, Generalized Anxiety, Social Anxiety, Academic Distress, Eating Concerns, Frustration, Family Distress, and Alcohol Use) were found based on several demographic variables. Logistic regression analysis demonstrated that female sex, team sport participation, and the Generalized Anxiety scale score predicted future participation in mental health treatment. Decision tree testing of the CCAPS scales showed low utility in classifying those who received mental health treatment versus those who did not. CONCLUSIONS The CCAPS Screen did not appear to differentiate well between those who eventually received mental health services and those who did not. This should not be taken to mean that mental health screening is not useful but rather that a 1-time, state-based screening is not sufficient for athletes who experience intermittent but recurring stressors in a dynamic environment. A proposed model for improving the current standard of practice for mental health screening is provided as a focus of future research.

Abstract
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are a class of man-made chemicals that are persistent in the environment. They can be transferred across the placenta to fetuses and through human milk to infants. The American Academy of Pediatrics advises that the benefits of breastfeeding infants almost always outweigh the potential risks of harm from environmental chemicals. However, there are few chemical-specific summaries of the potential harms of exposure to PFAS during the neonatal period through breastfeeding. This systematic review explores whether exposure to PFAS through breastfeeding is associated with adverse health outcomes among infants and children using evidence from human and animal studies. Systematic searches identified 4297 unique records from 7 databases. The review included 37 total articles, including 9 animal studies and 1 human study measuring the direct contribution of exposure of the infant or pup through milk for any health outcome. Animal studies provided evidence of associations between exposure to PFOA through breastfeeding and reduced early life body weight gain, mammary gland development, and thyroid hormone levels. They also provided limited evidence of associations between PFOS exposure through breastfeeding with reduced early life body weight gain and cellular changes in the hippocampus. The direct relevance of any of these outcomes to human health is uncertain, and it is possible that many adverse health effects of exposure through breastfeeding have not yet been studied. This review documents the current state of science and highlights the need for future research to guide clinicians making recommendations on infant feeding.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are drinking water contaminants. Tools to assess the potential body burden associated with drinking PFAS-contaminated water may be helpful for public health assessment of exposed communities. METHODS We implemented a suite of one-compartment toxicokinetic models using extensively calibrated toxicokinetic parameters (half-life and volume of distribution). We implemented the models both in the R programming language for research purposes, and as a web estimator for the general public (built in typescript.js). These models simulate exposure to PFAS water concentrations for individuals with varying characteristics such as age, sex, weight, and breastfeeding history. The models account for variability and uncertainty in parameter inputs to produce Monte Carlo-based estimates of serum concentration. For children, the models additionally account for gestational exposure, lactational exposure, and potential exposure through formula feeding. For adults who have borne children, the models account for clearance through birth and breastfeeding. We ran simulations of individuals with known PFAS water and serum concentrations to evaluate the model. We then compared the predicted serum PFAS concentrations to measured data. RESULTS The models accurately estimate individual-level serum levels for each PFAS for most adults within ½ order of magnitude. We found that the models somewhat overestimated serum concentrations for children in the tested locations, and that these overestimates are generally within an order of magnitude. DISCUSSION This paper presents scientifically robust models that allow users to estimate serum PFAS concentrations based on known PFAS water concentrations and physiologic information. However, accuracy in historical water concentration inputs, exposure from non-drinking water sources, and life-history characteristics of individuals present a complex problem for individual estimation. Additional refinements to the model suite to improve the prediction of individual results may consist of including duration of exposure and additional life-history characteristics.

Abstract
Cemetery vases are important habitat for vector mosquito production, yet there is limited understanding on their food web dynamics and how they vary across environmental gradients. Tree cover is one factor that varies widely across cemeteries, and influence food webs by means of detrital inputs, temperature mediation, and light availability. Such information can be important for determining mosquito adult body size, fecundity, and competition outcomes, all of which may influence mosquito population and disease risk. This study evaluates the relationship between tree canopy cover and indicators of basal resources for Aede aegypti (L.), Aedes albopictuss (Skuse), and Culex quinquefasciatus (Say) larvae, such as stable isotopes (δ13C and δ15N) and nutrient stoichiometry in cemeteries of New Orleans, Louisiana (USA). Stable isotope values suggest that larvae feed directly on the Particulate Organic Matter (POM) suspended in the vase's water, and that POM composition influence the nutrient profiles of mosquito larvae. The POM of open canopy vases had higher δ13C values, than that of closed canopy vases indicating differences in relative proportion of basal carbon sources, with open canopy POM having a lower proportion of allochthonous carbon, and a higher proportion of authoctonous carbon. Accordingly, mosquito larvae collected from open canopy vases had higher δ13C values, and higher C:N than larvae from closed canopy vases. The results of this study show a shift in food web dynamics driven by canopy cover in cemetery vases that directly influence the nutrient profiles of mosquito larvae. The implications for mosquito ecology, and vector management are discussed.

Abstract
Objective: Data are scarce regarding the incidence of neuropsychiatric events (NPEs) in people living with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-1 taking integrase inhibitor (INI)- or protease inhibitor (PI)-based regimens. This study evaluated the prevalence, incidence, and economic burden of NPEs among people living with HIV-1 who were newly treated with INI- or PI-based regimens in a Medicaid population. Methods: A retrospective cohort study was conducted using administrative claims from the IBM MarketScan Multi-State Medicaid Database (January 1, 2014-December 31, 2018). Treatment-naive and treatment-experienced adults with HIV-1 newly treated with an INI- or PI-based regimen were included. Outcomes included NPE prevalence during the 12-month baseline period, prevalence of existing and incidence of new-onset NPEs during the 6-month post-index period, and total all-cause and NPE-related costs between treatment cohorts. Baseline characteristics between the 2 cohorts were balanced using inverse probability treatment weighting. Results: In the INI (n = 3,929) and PI (n = 3,916) cohorts, mean (SD) ages were 44.87 (12.81) and 44.36 (11.85) years, and 41.7% and 41.3% were female, respectively. High proportions of patients in both cohorts had NPEs during the 12-month baseline period. Among patients with no baseline NPEs, adjusted NPE incident rate ratios (95% CIs) during the post-index period were as follows: any, 1.15 (1.00-1.33); chronic, 1.18 (0.98-1.42); and acute, 1.16 (0.96-1.39). Mean all-cause and NPE-related costs were similar between cohorts. Conclusions: In this study of the Medicaid population, the prevalence and incidence of NPEs, as well as health care costs, were similar among people living with HIV-1 newly treated with an INI- or PI-based regimen.

Abstract
8017 Background: Belantamab mafodotin (belamaf; BLENREP) is a B-cell maturation antigen-targeting antibody–drug conjugate approved for patients (pts) with RRMM as monotherapy at 2.5 mg/kg Q3W. Preclinical data demonstrate synergy between belamaf and lenalidomide (Len), suggesting added benefit when combined with standard of care such as Len + dexamethasone (Dex). DREAMM-6 (NCT03544281) Arm A is evaluating belamaf in combination with LenDex in pts with RRMM. Methods: This ongoing, two-part, two-arm, open-label study included pts with RMMM previously treated with ≥1 line of therapy (LOT). Pts received 4 belamaf doses/schedules (1.9 mg/kg Q8W or Q4W; 2.5 mg/kg Q4W or Q4W SPLIT dose [50% on Days (D)1, 8] IV) in combination with Len (20 mg PO D1–21) and Dex (20 mg PO/IV D1, 8, 15, 22). Primary objectives were safety (including treatment-related [TR]AEs related to the combination belamaf and LenDex), tolerability, and efficacy (including overall response rate [ORR] defined as ≥partial response). Results: As of this interim analysis (data cut: July 23, 2021), 45 pts received ≥1 dose (12 at 1.9 mg/kg Q8W; 4 at 1.9 mg/kg Q4W; 16 at 2.5 mg/kg Q4W; 13 at 2.5 mg/kg Q4W SPLIT). Across cohorts, the median age was 68 y (range: 36–80). Thirteen pts (29%) had high-risk cytogenetics and 6 (13%) had extramedullary disease. Median prior LOT was 3 (range: 1–11) and 26 (58%) had prior Len treatment. The median duration of follow-up and ORR ranged across cohorts (Table). The median duration of response was only reached in the 1.9 mg/kg Q4W cohort (11.1 mo [95% CI: 3.7–not reached [NR]). At the time of data cut, median progression-free survival was not reached in the 1.9 mg/kg Q8W or 2.5 mg/kg Q4W cohorts. Gr ≥3 TRAEs occurred in 42–85%. Gr ≥3 keratopathy occurred in 0 pts in 1.9 mg/kg Q8W, 1 pt (25%) in 1.9 mg/kg Q4W, 8 pts (50%) in 2.5 mg/kg Q4W, and 6 pts (46%) in 2.5 mg/kg Q4W SPLIT cohorts. Conclusions: Belamaf + LenDex had a tolerable safety profile, with no new safety signals identified in pts with RRMM. AEs, including keratopathy, were common but manageable with dose modifications. Encouraging clinical activity is observed with this combination in pts with RRMM. Follow-up/correlative studies are ongoing.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hydrocephalus is a common condition associated with high morbidity and mortality rates. Despite advancements in shunt systems and valve designs, complications associated with ventriculoperitoneal (VP) shunts are steadily recognized and reported in the literature. Here, we present an unusual case of VP shunt failure due to catheter kinking at the site of the slits in the distal peritoneal catheter. CASE REPORT A 30-year-old woman with type I Chiari malformation, prior suboccipital craniectomy, and shunted hydrocephalus with prior revisions presented with 2 months of progressive, low-pressure headaches. Shunt series X-rays demonstrated kinking of the distal peritoneal catheter. A computed tomography (CT) scan showed interval enlargement of her ventricles concerning for shunt failure, which prompted return to the operating room. During shunt revision, her valve was nonfunctioning with loss of resistance and her distal catheter was kinked at the most proximal peritoneal slit. Postoperative shunt series X-rays demonstrated an intact shunt system without kinking or discontinuity and a CT of her head showed interval decease in the caliber of her ventricles. CONCLUSIONS Distal peritoneal catheter kinking at the site of slits is an unusual complication of VP shunts and should be considered. Surgeons should add this possibility to the differential diagnosis of shunt malfunction when an imaging irregularity is identified in the peritoneal catheter.

Abstract
Background: While some studies among patients with HIV-1 suggest that antiretroviral therapy (ART) regimens containing tenofovir alafenamide (TAF) may be associated with greater weight gain than those not containing TAF, no studies have assessed the relationship between TAF doses and weight change. Objectives: To evaluate weight-related outcomes among patients with HIV-1 in the United States initiating ART containing different nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors and doses. Methods: A retrospective longitudinal study was conducted using Decision Resources Group's electronic medical records (July 17, 2017-March 1, 2020). Adult patients with HIV-1 initiating ART (index date) containing TAF 25 mg, TAF 10 mg, tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF), or neither TAF nor TDF on or after July 17, 2018, were included. Changes in weight and body mass index (BMI) from pre-index to 3, 6, 9, and 12 months post-index were compared between cohorts using mean differences obtained from ordinary least squares models adjusted for baseline characteristics. Time-to-weight and BMI increase ≥5% were compared using Cox models adjusted for baseline characteristics. Results: Among 1652 eligible patients (TAF 25 mg, n=710; TAF 10 mg, n=303; TDF, n=219; non-TAF/TDF, n=420), the majority (83.2%-99.5%) initiated an integrase strand transfer inhibitor, except for the TDF cohort (45.2%). Patients initiating TAF 25 mg had greater weight or BMI increase across all time points compared with patients initiating TAF 10 mg, TDF, or non-TAF/TDF regimens (mean differences in weight or BMI changes between cohorts at 12 months post-index ranged from 0.78 kg [1.72 lb] to 1.34 kg [2.95 lb] and from 0.77 kg/m2 to 1.95 kg/m2, respectively), although findings were not statistically significant for all comparisons. Compared with TAF 25 mg, time-to-weight and BMI increase ≥5% in the other treatment cohorts were longer (hazard ratios ranged from 0.77 to 0.94), although findings were generally not statistically significant. Conclusions: Among a population of patients predominantly initiating integrase strand transfer inhibitors, increases in weight and BMI post-ART initiation were common and appeared to be higher and occur more rapidly among patients receiving TAF 25 mg compared with lower TAF doses or other nucleosides. When considering long-term health consequences, weight gain is an important factor to consider when selecting an ART regimen.

Abstract
Purpose Inpatient diabetes management involves frequent assessment of glucose levels for treatment decisions. Here we describe a program for inpatient real-time continuous glucose monitoring (rtCGM) at a community hospital and the accuracy of rtCGM-based glucose estimates. Methods Adult inpatients with preexisting diabetes managed with intensive insulin therapy and a diagnosis of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) were monitored via rtCGM for safety. An rtCGM system transmitted glucose concentration and trending information at 5-minute intervals to nearby smartphones, which relayed the data to a centralized monitoring station. Hypoglycemia alerts were triggered by rtCGM values of ≤85 mg/dL, but rtCGM data were otherwise not used in management decisions; insulin dosing adjustments were based on blood glucose values measured via fingerstick blood sampling. Accuracy was evaluated retrospectively by comparing rtCGM values to contemporaneous point-of-care (POC) blood glucose values. Results A total of 238 pairs of rtCGM and POC data points from 10 patients showed an overall mean absolute relative difference (MARD) of 10.3%. Clarke error grid analysis showed 99.2% of points in the clinically acceptable range, and surveillance error grid analysis showed 89.1% of points in the lowest risk category. It was determined that for 25% of the rtCGM values, discordances in rtCGM and POC values would likely have resulted in different insulin doses. Insulin dose recommendations based on rtCGM values differed by 1 to 3 units from POC-based recommendations. Conclusion rtCGM for inpatient diabetes monitoring is feasible. Evaluation of individual rtCGM-POC paired values suggested that using rtCGM data for management decisions poses minimal risks to patients. Further studies to establish the safety and cost implications of using rtCGM data for inpatient diabetes management decisions are warranted.

Abstract
Introduction Recent changes in antiretroviral therapies (ARTs) may have affected medication adherence of people living with human immunodeficiency virus-1 (HIV-1). In this study adherence to ART regimens among patients with HIV-1 (PWH) across the US during a recent time period was examined and study findings were stratified by US region and state. Methods A retrospective observational study using the Symphony Health Solution Integrated Dataverse database was conducted. Patients ≥ 18 years of age who had a diagnosis of HIV-1 (without an HIV-2 diagnosis) and who were treated with ART between July 2017 and September 2018 (first pharmacy record: index date) were selected from the data source. Both patients who had not been previously treated with ART and those who were treatment experienced were included. Patients were required to have ≥ 1 medical/pharmacy record ≥ 12 months after their index date (follow-up period). Patient characteristics were examined during a 12-month pre-index period. During the follow-up, medication adherence, measured as the proportion of days covered (PDC), was examined for all patients and stratified by US region and state. Results Among 206,474 adult PWH treated with ART, mean age was 47.9 years, 73.4% were male, and 30.0% were Caucasian. The most prevalent comorbid conditions were hyperlipidemia (25.1%), depressive disorders (14.8%), and type 2 diabetes (12.1%). During the follow-up period, mean (standard deviation) PDC was 74.1% (25.9%) among PWH across the US [Midwest: 74.4% (25.5%); Northeast: 74.3% (26.1%); South: 73.2% (26.3%); West: 76.4% (24.8%)]. Across all US regions, > 60% of PWH had adherence < 90% and > 40% had adherence < 80%; the West had the highest adherent population. Conclusions Among PWH treated with ART across the US, a majority had suboptimal adherence. Implementation of strategies to improve ART adherence, including clinical consideration of ARTs with high genetic barriers to resistance, is needed in the US.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Treatment during acute or early human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-1 infection is associated with immunologic and virologic benefits. OBJECTIVE To evaluate darunavir/cobicistat/emtricitabine/tenofovir alafenamide (D/C/F/TAF) efficacy/safety among patients with acute or early HIV-1 infection who rapidly initiate treatment. METHODS DIAMOND (ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT03227861), a phase 3 study, evaluated the efficacy/safety of D/C/F/TAF 800/150/200/10 mg in rapid initiation. Adults aged ≥18 years began D/C/F/TAF within 14 days of diagnosis, prior to the availability of screening/baseline laboratory results. In this subgroup analysis, virologic response (HIV-1 RNA <50 copies/mL) was assessed at Week 48 by intent-to-treat FDA snapshot (ITT-FDA snapshot) and observed (excluding patients with missing data) analyses in patients with acute (HIV-1 antibody negative and HIV-1 RNA positive/p24 positive) or early (HIV-1 antibody positive and suspected infection ≤6 months before screening/baseline) infection. RESULTS Among 109 patients, 13 had acute and 43 had early HIV-1 infection. High rates of virologic response were demonstrated at Week 48 by ITT-FDA snapshot (acute: 10/13 [76.9%]; early: 37/43 [86.0%]) and observed (acute: 10/11 [90.9%]; early: 37/38 [97.4%]) analyses. No patients discontinued or required regimen change due to baseline resistance or lack of efficacy, or developed protocol-defined virologic failure. Through Week 48, 7 (53.8%) acute and 22 (51.2%) early infection patients had a D/C/F/TAF-related adverse event (AE); none had a D/C/F/TAF-related grade 4 or serious AE. CONCLUSIONS High rates of viral suppression during acute/early infection were achieved with D/C/F/TAF rapid initiation, no treatment-emergent resistant mutations were observed, and D/C/F/TAF was safe and well tolerated.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study aimed to determine if disclosure of HIV status to adolescents impacted their medication adherence and how medication autonomy might explain observed effects. METHODS Three hundred adolescents on HIV treatment using electronic medication monitors were followed for 24 months while undergoing routine care. One hundred six of the adolescents were HIV disclosure-naïve and HIV status disclosure in this group was assessed quarterly. Analyses included data from the 75 adolescents who experienced disclosure during the study providing adherence and autonomy data both predisclosure and postdisclosure. Segmented generalized estimating equations were used to examine the trend of adherence and autonomy predisclosure and postdisclosure. Covariates assessed include age at disclosure, sex, and orphan status. RESULTS Median age at study entry was 12.2 years (interquartile range 11.6-12.9). Incident disclosure occurred in 75 (71%) of the adolescents at a median age of 13.1 years (interquartile range 12.5-13.9). Adherence decreased by 11% (95% confidence interval [CI] 7-15, p < .001) during the predisclosure period and by 22% (95% CI 9-36, p = .001) during the postdisclosure period. Adolescents' autonomy over their medication-taking increased over time, but disclosure did not impact the rate of increase in measured medication-taking autonomy. On a scale of 1-4 assessing autonomy (1 = receiving directly observed therapy and 4 = taking medicines mostly without supervision), autonomy increased by an average of .03 units/month (95% CI .02-.03, p < .001) predisclosure and by .05 units/month (95% CI -.01 to .11, p = .42) postdisclosure. CONCLUSIONS The findings suggest that, among perinatally HIV infected adolescents, HIV status disclosure may adversely impact treatment adherence. Postdisclosure support to HIV infected adolescents should be intensified.

Abstract
PROBLEM Previous research have focused extensively on crashes, however near crashes provide additional data on driver errors leading to critical events as well as evasive maneuvers employed to avoid crashes. The Strategic Highway Research Program 2 (SHRP2) Naturalistic Driving Study contains extensive data on real world driving and offers a reliable methodology to study near crashes. The current study utilized the SHRP2 database to compare the rate and characteristics associated with near crashes among risky drivers. METHODS A subset from the SHRP2 database consisting of 4,818 near crashes for teen (16-19 yrs), young adult (20-24 yrs), adult (35-54 yrs), and older (70+ yrs) drivers was used. Near crashes were classified into seven incident types: rear-end, road departure, intersection, head-on, side-swipe, pedestrian/cyclist, and animal. Near crash rates, incident type, secondary tasks, and evasive maneuvers were compared across age groups. For rear-end near crashes, near crash severity, max deceleration, and time-to-collision at braking were compared across age. RESULTS Near crash rates significantly decreased with increasing age (p < 0.05). Young drivers exhibited greater rear-end (p < 0.05) and road departure (p < 0.05) near crashes compared to adult and older drivers. Intersection near crashes were the most common incident type among older drivers. Evasive maneuver type did not significantly vary across age groups. Near crashes exhibited a longer time-to-collision at braking (p < 0.01) compared to crashes. SUMMARY These data demonstrate increased total near crash rates among young drivers relative to adult and older drivers. Prevalence of specific near crash types also differed across age groups. Timely execution of evasive maneuvers was a distinguishing factor between crashes or near crashes. Practical Applications: These data can be used to develop more targeted driver training programs and help OEMs optimize ADAS to address the most common errors exhibited by risky drivers.

Abstract
8502 Background: Belantamab mafodotin, a B-cell maturation antigen targeting immunoconjugate, demonstrated clinically meaningful, single-agent activity in patients with heavily pre-treated RRMM refractory to an immunomodulatory agent, a proteasome inhibitor, and refractory and/or intolerant to an anti-CD38 monoclonal antibody (DREAMM-2, NCT03525678, Lancet Oncol.2020). The multimodal mechanism of action and manageable safety profile make belantamab mafodotin a promising candidate for use in different RRMM combination regimens. Methods: DREAMM-6 (NCT03544281) is an ongoing, two-part, two-arm, study evaluating the safety, tolerability, and clinical activity of belantamab mafodotin in combination with bortezomib/dexamethasone (BorDex) and lenalidomide/dexamethasone in patients previously treated with ≥1 prior therapy line. Here, we present data for belantamab mafodotin in combination with BorDex. Part 1 (dose escalation) and Part 2 (dose expansion) evaluated belantamab mafodotin (2.5 and 3.4 mg/kg) administered as SINGLE (Day 1) or SPLIT dose (divided equally on Days 1 and 8) in combination with BorDex. Results: As of February 6, 2020, 52 patients were enrolled: 6 patients were enrolled at 2.5 mg/kg single dose and 7 at 3.4 mg/kg single dosing in Part 1, and 45 patients in Part 2. No dose-limiting toxicities were observed. Corneal events (including keratopathy, blurred vision, and dry eye) and thrombocytopenia were the most frequently reported AEs and were clinically manageable. Conclusions: In DREAMM-6, preliminary data demonstrate that the combination of belantamab mafodotin and BorDex has an acceptable safety profile, with no new safety signals identified.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES Epidemiologic studies of children with alopecia areata (AA) are sparse, and there are no studies that focus on the youngest children with AA. Evaluation of the clinical presentations of AA in children <4 years of age was performed in order to identify the prognostic factors for disease progression. METHODS We performed a retrospective chart review of 125 pediatric patients seen at the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia with an initial presentation of AA under the age of 4. Disease severity was measured using the Severity of Alopecia Tool (SALT) score at initial presentation, 3-6 months later, 1 year later, and then at 2 years. RESULTS Initial presentation was most common between ages 2 and 4 years. Most children had mild disease severity and continued mild disease over the next 2 years. Children with more than 50% of hair loss at presentation were much more likely to have worsening SALT scores over time and remain more severe. Approximately 41% had concomitant atopic dermatitis, 28% had a family member with AA, and 27% had a first-degree family member with one or more autoimmune diseases. CONCLUSIONS In a diverse patient population, most children with AA even when presenting under age 4 have mild disease (<50% hair loss on scalp). Those who present with more severe disease are more likely to worsen or remain severe over time. These findings can aid family counseling and education.

Abstract
PURPOSE AYAs with KTs experience high rates of premature allograft loss during the HCT. There is a critical need to identify protective factors associated with stable HCT. Resilience-the ability to adapt and thrive in the setting of adversity-has known positive impact on health outcomes. This study explored the novel role of resilience constructs as protective factors in securing stable HCT among AYA with KT. METHODS We conducted semi-structured interviews of adolescents and young adults who transitioned from a single pediatric transplant center to multiple adult nephrology centers between 2010 and 2017. Interviews explored the role of key resilience constructs in participants' lives around the time of HCT. Participants were stratified into stable or unstable HCT groups based on biological markers of allograft function and clinical data from chart review. Content analyses of interview transcripts were reviewed and compared among HCT groups. RESULTS Thirty-two participants enrolled (17 stable; 15 unstable). Key resilience constructs more salient in the stable versus unstable HCT group were confidence in and connection to one's healthcare team. Reports of healthcare self-management competencies were similar across both HCT groups. CONCLUSIONS Confidence in and connection to one's healthcare team appear to be linked with a stable HCT among AYA with KT. This suggests that interdependence, the ability to foster connections with and elicit support from healthcare providers, as opposed to complete independence or autonomy, which is often advised in the HCT process, is a critical component of resilience linked to stable HCT.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Recent studies have shown that oral combination antibiotics may improve disease course in refractory inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Here, we describe the use of combination oral antibiotics as salvage therapy in refractory ulcerative colitis (UC), Crohn's colitis, and IBD-unclassified (IBD-U) at a large pediatric IBD center. METHODS Clinical response, disease activity indices, adverse events, and clinical outcomes were measured up to 1 year after antibiotic treatment in this retrospective cohort study of children with medically refractory IBD colitis. RESULTS Sixty-three patients with refractory UC, Crohn's colitis, and IBD-U (median age [interquartile range {IQR}], 15.3 [11.2-16.5] years; median disease duration [IQR], 1.2 [0.41-4.6] years) received a combination of 3 or 4 oral antibiotics (most commonly amoxicillin, metronidazole, and either doxycycline or ciprofloxacin) for a median (IQR) of 29 (21-58) days. Thirty-four patients (54%) were deemed corticosteroid-refractory or -dependent, with the majority (62/63) having a previous or present loss of response or primary nonresponse to anti-tumor necrosis factor alpha (anti-TNFα) therapy. Use of combination antibiotics led to a significant decrease in median Pediatric Ulcerative Colitis Activity Index (PUCAI) score (IQR) from 55 (40-65) to 10 (0-40; P < 0.0001) over 3 ± 1 weeks, with 25/63 (39.7%) patients achieving clinical remission (PUCAI <10 points). The clinical benefits of oral antibiotics were independent of anti-TNFα therapy optimization. Among children entering clinical remission (n = 25), only 1 patient required surgery at 1-year follow-up, vs 10 patients in the nonresponder group. Negative predictors of response to combination antibiotics were exposure to doxycycline (odds ratio [OR], 0.25; 95% CI, 0.08-0.76) and PUCAI ≥65 at baseline (OR, 0.2; 95% CI, 0.05-0.74). CONCLUSIONS Oral combination antibiotics appears to be an effective rescue and steroid-sparing therapy to induce remission in the short term in patients failing a biologic.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess performance of risk stratification schemes in predicting adverse cardiac outcomes in pregnant women with congenital heart disease (CHD) and to compare these schemes to clinical factors alone. DESIGN Single-center retrospective study. SETTING Tertiary care academic hospital. PATIENTS Women ≥18 years with International Classification of Diseases, Ninth Revision, Clinical Modification codes indicating CHD who delivered between 1998 and 2014. CARPREG I and ZAHARA risk scores and modified World Health Organization (WHO) criteria were applied to each woman. OUTCOME MEASURES The primary outcome was defined by ≥1 of the following: arrhythmia, heart failure/pulmonary edema, transient ischemic attack, stroke, dissection, myocardial infarction, cardiac arrest, death during gestation and up to 6 months postpartum. RESULTS Of 178 women, the most common CHD lesions were congenital aortic stenosis (15.2%), ventricular septal defect (13.5%), atrial septal defect (12.9%), and tetralogy of Fallot (12.9%). Thirty-five women (19.7%) sustained 39 cardiac events. Observed vs expected event rates were 9.9% vs 5% (P = .02) for CARPREG I score 0 and 26.1% vs 7.5% (P < .001) for ZAHARA scores 0.51-1.5. ZAHARA outperformed CARPREG I at predicting adverse cardiovascular outcomes (AUC 0.80 vs 0.72, P = .03) but was not significantly better than modified WHO. Clinical predictors of adverse cardiac event were symptoms (P = .002), systemic ventricular dysfunction (P < .001), and subpulmonary ventricular dysfunction (P = .03) with an AUC 0.83 comparable to ZAHARA (P = .66). CONCLUSIONS CARPREG I and ZAHARA scores underestimate cardiac risk for lower risk pregnancies in these women. Of the three risk schemes, CARPREG I performed least well in predictive capacity. Clinical factors specific to the population studied are comparable to stratification schemes.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE There are variable reports of risk of concordance for progression to islet autoantibodies and type 1 diabetes in identical twins after one twin is diagnosed. We examined development of positive autoantibodies and type 1 diabetes and the effects of genetic factors and common environment on autoantibody positivity in identical twins, nonidentical twins, and full siblings. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Subjects from the TrialNet Pathway to Prevention Study (N = 48,026) were screened from 2004 to 2015 for islet autoantibodies (GAD antibody [GADA], insulinoma-associated antigen 2 [IA-2A], and autoantibodies against insulin [IAA]). Of these subjects, 17,226 (157 identical twins, 283 nonidentical twins, and 16,786 full siblings) were followed for autoantibody positivity or type 1 diabetes for a median of 2.1 years. RESULTS At screening, identical twins were more likely to have positive GADA, IA-2A, and IAA than nonidentical twins or full siblings (all P < 0.0001). Younger age, male sex, and genetic factors were significant factors for expression of IA-2A, IAA, one or more positive autoantibodies, and two or more positive autoantibodies (all P ≤ 0.03). Initially autoantibody-positive identical twins had a 69% risk of diabetes by 3 years compared with 1.5% for initially autoantibody-negative identical twins. In nonidentical twins, type 1 diabetes risk by 3 years was 72% for initially multiple autoantibody-positive, 13% for single autoantibody-positive, and 0% for initially autoantibody-negative nonidentical twins. Full siblings had a 3-year type 1 diabetes risk of 47% for multiple autoantibody-positive, 12% for single autoantibody-positive, and 0.5% for initially autoantibody-negative subjects. CONCLUSIONS Risk of type 1 diabetes at 3 years is high for initially multiple and single autoantibody-positive identical twins and multiple autoantibody-positive nonidentical twins. Genetic predisposition, age, and male sex are significant risk factors for development of positive autoantibodies in twins.

Abstract
Background New national guidance on urgent referral for investigation of colorectal cancer included faecal occult blood testing in 2015. A service evaluation of faecal immunochemical testing (FIT) and anaemia as risk stratification tools in symptomatic patients suspected of having CRC was undertaken. Methods Postal FIT was incorporated into the colorectal cancer 2-week wait (2WW) pathway for all patients without rectal bleeding in 2016. Patients were investigated in the 2WW pathway as normal, and outcomes of investigations were recorded prospectively. Anaemia was defined as a haemoglobin level below 120 g/l in women and 130 g/l in men. Results FIT kits were sent to 1106 patients, with an 80·9 per cent return rate; 810 patients completed investigations and 40 colorectal cancers were diagnosed (4·9 per cent). FIT results were significantly higher in patients with anaemia (median (i.q.r.) 4·8 (0·8-34·1) versus 1·2 (0-6·4) μg Hb/g faeces in those without anaemia; P < 0·001). Some 60·4 per cent of patients (538 of 891) had a result lower than 4 μg haemoglobin (Hb) per g faeces (limit of detectability), and 69·7 per cent (621 of 891) had less than 10 μg Hb/g faeces. Some 60 per cent of patients with colorectal cancer had a FIT reading of 150 μg Hb/g faeces or more. For five colorectal cancers diagnosed in patients with a FIT value below 10 μg Hb/g faeces, there was either a palpable rectal mass or the patient was anaemic. A FIT result of more than 4 μg Hb/g faeces had 97·5 per cent sensitivity and 64·5 per cent specificity for a diagnosis of colorectal cancer. A FIT result above 4 μg Hb/g faeces and/or anaemia had a 100 per cent sensitivity and 45·3 per cent specificity for colorectal cancer diagnosis. Conclusion FIT is most useful at the extremes of detectability; strongly positive readings predict high rates of colorectal cancer and other significant pathology, whereas very low readings in the absence of anaemia or a palpable rectal mass identify a group with very low risk. High return rates for FIT within this 2WW pathway indicate its acceptability.

Abstract
Success at university may be influenced by concerns with occupation and occupational performance. To understand occupations of concern and occupational performance among a sample (N = 144) of university students in the Midwest United States, the Canadian Occupational Performance Measure was administered. Socially related (n = 103), academic-related (n = 75), and work-related (n = 64) occupations were the three most frequently reported occupational concerns. Time management (n = 79) was the most frequent person-level concern. Mean self-perceived competence in occupations was 29.83 (SD = 7.18) out of 50 and mean performance satisfaction was 26.80 (SD = 8.01) out of 50. There were no differences in occupational performance across gender, race/ethnicity, class standing, living environment, or work status. However, within participants, there was a significant and clinically relevant difference between performance satisfaction and self-perceived competence in occupation, t(143) = 7.052, p < .0005, d = 0.58. Students have varied occupations that they find important, and future research should explore how occupational performance and performance satisfaction influence university success.

Abstract
The Time-Resolved Observations of Precipitation structure and storm Intensity with a Constellation of Smallsats (TROPICS) mission was selected by NASA as part of the Earth Venture-Instrument (EVI-3) program. The overarching goal for TROPICS is to provide nearly all-weather observations of 3D temperature and humidity, as well as cloud ice and precipitation horizontal structure, at high temporal resolution to conduct high-value science investigations of tropical cyclones. TROPICS will provide rapid-refresh microwave measurements (median refresh rate better than 60 min for the baseline mission) which can be used to observe the thermodynamics of the troposphere and precipitation structure for storm systems at the mesoscale and synoptic scale over the entire storm life cycle. TROPICS comprises six CubeSats in three low-Earth orbital planes. Each CubeSat will host a high-performance radiometer to provide temperature profiles using seven channels near the 118.75 GHz oxygen absorption line, water vapour profiles using three channels near the 183 GHz water vapour absorption line, imagery in a single channel near 90 GHz for precipitation measurements (when combined with higher-resolution water vapour channels), and a single channel near 205 GHz which is more sensitive to precipitation-sized ice particles. This observing system offers an unprecedented combination of horizontal and temporal resolution to measure environmental and inner-core conditions for tropical cyclones on a nearly global scale and is a major leap forward in the temporal resolution of several key parameters needed for assimilation into advanced data assimilation systems capable of utilizing rapid-update radiance or retrieval data. Launch readiness is currently projected for late 2019.

Abstract
Introduction: Approximately 70% of veterans with hepatitis C virus infection have at least one psychiatric illness. The advent of direct-acting antiviral (DAA) therapy provided an alternative to interferon-alpha regimens and revolutionized treatment, however, the extent of psychiatric effects attributed to these agents are unclear. The primary objective of this pilot study was to prospectively analyze psychiatric outcomes, specifically depression, in veterans with hepatitis C virus infection who are initiated on DAA therapy. Methods: In this single center, prospective cohort study, psychiatric outcomes were analyzed using Patient Health Questionnaire assessments at baseline and weeks 4, 8, and 12 of complete DAA treatment. Outcome analysis were stratified based on specific DAA therapy and preexisting mental illness (mental health [MH] subjects and non-MH subjects), with a sub-analysis of major depressive disorder patients. Results: Analysis included 48 patients, majority males (96%), with a mean age of 59.4 years (±8.0). Twenty-four (50%) patients had a preexisting MH diagnosis, with major depressive disorder being the most common MH diagnosis (50%, n = 12). Despite a trend toward improvement, no significant changes in questionnaire scores after 12 weeks of DAA therapy were observed for all patient groups (P > .05). Neither MH subjects nor non-MH subjects displayed a significant change in questionnaire scores from baseline to end of treatment (P > .05). No patients required acute psychiatric interventions during DAA treatment. Discussion: Treatment with DAA therapy was not associated with psychiatric decompensation. Data from this pilot study supports the safe utilization of DAA therapy in hepatitis C virus patients with preexisting MH illness as it appears to be devoid of depressive and psychiatric side effects.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Poor adherence to immunosuppressive medications is a major cause of premature graft loss among children and young adults. Multicomponent interventions have shown promise but have not been fully evaluated. STUDY DESIGN Unblinded parallel-arm randomized trial to assess the efficacy of a clinic-based adherence-promoting intervention. SETTING & PARTICIPANTS Prevalent kidney transplant recipients 11 to 24 years of age and 3 or more months posttransplantation at 8 kidney transplantation centers in Canada and the United States (February 2012 to May 2016) were included. INTERVENTION Adherence was electronically monitored in all participants during a 3-month run-in, followed by a 12-month intervention. Participants assigned to the TAKE-IT intervention could choose to receive text message, e-mail, and/or visual cue dose reminders and met with a coach at 3-month intervals when adherence data from the prior 3 months were reviewed with the participant. "Action-Focused Problem Solving" was used to address adherence barriers selected as important by the participant. Participants assigned to the control group met with coaches at 3-month intervals but received no feedback about adherence data. OUTCOMES The primary outcomes were electronically measured "taking" adherence (the proportion of prescribed doses of immunosuppressive medications taken) and "timing" adherence (the proportion of doses of immunosuppressive medications taken between 1 hour before and 2 hours after the prescribed time of administration) on each day of observation. Secondary outcomes included the standard deviation of tacrolimus trough concentrations, self-reported adherence, acute rejection, and graft failure. RESULTS 81 patients were assigned to intervention (median age, 15.5 years; 57% male) and 88 to the control group (median age, 15.8 years; 61% male). Electronic adherence data were available for 64 intervention and 74 control participants. Participants in the intervention group had significantly greater odds of taking prescribed medications (OR, 1.66; 95% CI, 1.15-2.39) and taking medications at or near the prescribed time (OR, 1.74; 95% CI, 1.21-2.50) than controls. LIMITATIONS Lack of electronic adherence data for some participants may have introduced bias. There was low statistical power for clinical outcomes. CONCLUSIONS The multicomponent TAKE-IT intervention resulted in significantly better medication adherence than the control condition. Better medication adherence may result in improved graft outcomes, but this will need to be demonstrated in larger studies. TRIAL REGISTRATION Registered at ClinicalTrials.gov with study number NCT01356277.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Newly licensed adolescent drivers have skill deficits that increase risk for motor vehicle crashes. Development of programs targeted to prelicensed adolescents has been hindered by concerns about encouraging overconfidence and early licensure. The study had 2 primary objectives: (a) determine whether an Internet-based intervention designed to improve parent-supervised practice (TeenDrivingPlan [TDP]) influenced adolescents' time to licensure and parents' perceptions of adolescents' driving skill, expertise, and safety and (b) evaluate the association of these perceptions and practice diversity (number of different environments where practiced occurred) with time to licensure. METHOD A randomized controlled trial was used to compare TDP with a control condition. Participants (N = 295 parent-adolescent dyads) completed periodic surveys over 24 weeks and were subsequently followed for up to a year to determine adolescents' licensure status. RESULTS TDP did not influence time to licensure and did not affect parents' perceptions of skill, expertise, and safety. Practice diversity was associated with faster licensure. A more favorable perception of adolescents' skill in comparison to peers was associated with faster licensure. CONCLUSIONS Targeting parents' beliefs about adolescents' safety in relation to other road users may not be conducive to altering licensing trajectories, whereas sensitizing parents to their adolescents' emerging skills might be more effective in promoting safe entry into licensure.

Abstract
Using data collected as part of offshore surveys conducted during 1972-2013, haddock Melanogrammus aeglefinus association patterns with depth and temperature in southern Newfoundland waters, the northern extremity of the species' range in the western Atlantic Ocean, were quantified. They were typically concentrated in the deep warm waters along the narrow shelf slope in North-west Atlantic Fisheries Organization Divisions 3O and 3P with individuals moving seasonally into the shallow waters of the banks as they warmed. While M. aeglefinus were found over a range of depths and temperatures, they were primarily located at depths deeper and temperatures warmer than the median sampled. Analyses demonstrated that of the two hydrographic variables assessed, temperature was most influential in structuring distribution, with individuals appearing to change depth in order to maintain similar temperature throughout the year. Melanogrammus aeglefinus were found predominantly in temperatures of c. 4-8° C which often represented some of the warmest waters available. Differences in fish-habitat association patterns in relation to sex or maturity status were not readily apparent from the analyses. Warming conditions off Newfoundland and Labrador in recent years might be predicted to improve local M. aeglefinus productivity.

Abstract
Mouse models of inflammatory bowel disease are critical for basic and translational research that is advancing the understanding and treatment of this disease. Assessment of these mouse models frequently relies on histologic endpoints. In recent years, whole slide imaging and digital pathology-based image analysis platforms have become increasingly available for implementation into the pathology workflow. These automated image analysis approaches allow for nonbiased quantitative assessment of histologic endpoints. In this study, the authors sought to develop an image analysis workflow using a commercially available image analysis platform that requires minimal training in image analysis or programming, and this workflow was used to score 2 mouse models of colitis that are primarily characterized by immune cell infiltrates in the lamina propria. Although the software was unable to accurately and consistently segment hematoxylin and eosin–stained sections, automated quantification of CD3 immunolabeling resulted in strong correlations with the pathologist’s score in all studies and allowed for the identification of 8 of the 9 differences among treatment groups that were identified by the pathologist. These results demonstrate not only the ability to incorporate solutions based on image analysis into the pathologist’s workflow but also the importance of immunohistochemical or histochemical surrogates for the incorporation of image analysis in histologic assessments.

Abstract
Amyloid beta (Aβ) peptides are the major components of senile plaques, one of the main pathological hallmarks of Alzheimer disease (AD). However, Aβ peptides' functions are not fully understood and seem to be highly pleiotropic. We hypothesized that plasma Aβ peptides concentrations could be a suitable endophenotype for a genome-wide association study (GWAS) designed to (i) identify novel genetic factors involved in amyloid precursor protein metabolism and (ii) highlight relevant Aβ-related physiological and pathophysiological processes. Hence, we performed a genome-wide association meta-analysis of four studies totaling 3 528 healthy individuals of European descent and for whom plasma Aβ1-40 and Aβ1-42 peptides levels had been quantified. Although we did not observe any genome-wide significant locus, we identified 18 suggestive loci (P<1 × 10(-)(5)). Enrichment-pathway analyses revealed canonical pathways mainly involved in neuronal functions, for example, axonal guidance signaling. We also assessed the biological impact of the gene most strongly associated with plasma Aβ1-42 levels (cortexin 3, CTXN3) on APP metabolism in vitro and found that the gene protein was able to modulate Aβ1-42 secretion. In conclusion, our study results suggest that plasma Aβ peptides levels are valid endophenotypes in GWASs and can be used to characterize the metabolism and functions of APP and its metabolites.
