Abstract
We conducted a multicenter pilot investigation of the safety and feasibility of bone marrow transplantation (BMT) in adults with severe sickle cell disease (SCD) (NCT 01565616) using a reduced toxicity preparative regimen of busulfan (13.2 mg/kg), fludarabine (175 mg/m2 ) and thymoglobulin (6 mg/kg) and cyclosporine or tacrolimus and methotrexate for graft-vs-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis. Twenty-two patients (median age 22 years; range 17-36) were enrolled at eight centers. Seventeen patients received marrow from an HLA-identical sibling donor and five patients received marrow from an 8/8 HLA-allele matched unrelated donor. Before BMT, patients had stroke, acute chest syndrome, recurrent pain events, were receiving regular red blood cell transfusions, or had an elevated tricuspid regurgitant jet (TRJ) velocity, which fulfilled eligibility criteria. Four patients developed grades II-III acute GVHD (18%) and six developed chronic GVHD (27%) that was moderate in two and severe in one patient. One patient died of intracranial hemorrhage and one of GVHD. Nineteen patients had stable donor chimerism, 1-year post-transplant. One patient who developed secondary graft failure survives disease-free after a second BMT. The one-year overall survival and event-free survival (EFS) are 91% (95% CI 68%-98%) and 86% (95% CI, 63%-95%), respectively, and 3-year EFS is 82%. Statistically significant improvements in the pain interference and physical function domains of health-related quality of life were observed. The study satisfied the primary endpoint of 1-year EFS ≥70%. This regimen is being studied in a prospective clinical trial comparing HLA-matched donor BMT with standard of care in adults with severe SCD (NCT02766465).

Abstract
The aim of this study was to test the hypothesis that the circadian rhythm of core body temperature is altered in premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD) subjects compared to that in normal comparison (NC) subjects and that it is normalized in PMDD subjects after treatment with early night partial sleep deprivation (ESD) or late night partial sleep deprivation (LSD). A total of 23 subjects meeting DSM-IV criteria for PMDD and 18 NC subjects had 24-h core body temperature recordings taken during the following conditions: (1) baseline midfollicular (preovulatory) and (2) late luteal (postovulatory) menstrual cycle phases and after a randomized crossover trial in subsequent luteal phases of (3) ESD, in which subjects slept from 03:00 to 07:00 h, followed by (4) a night of recovery sleep (ESD-R: sleep 22:30 to 06:30 h), and (5) LSD, in which subjects slept from 21:00 to 01:00 h, also followed by (6) a night of recovery sleep (LSD-R: sleep 22:30 to 06:30 h). Temperature amplitudes were significantly decreased in the luteal phase compared to those in the follicular menstrual cycle phase and increased after nights of recovery sleep. Compared to the baseline late luteal phase, during LSD, temperature amplitude increased in PMDD subjects but decreased in NC subjects. During ESD, the temperature acrophase was delayed in PMDD subjects but was advanced in NC subjects; during LSD, the temperature acrophase was advanced in PMDD subjects but was delayed in NC subjects compared to the late luteal baseline. Nocturnal temperature and temperature maxima and mesors tended to be higher in PMDD subjects than in NC subjects; when not reduced during sleep deprivation interventions, these were not associated with therapeutic effects. Alterations in both phase and amplitude of temperature circadian rhythms characterize PMDD subjects as contrasted with NC subjects in response to sleep deprivation. The changes in phase reflected more shifts in temperature acrophase in response to shifts in sleep in PMDD subjects. This realignment of the timing of sleep and temperature in addition to the enhancement of blunted amplitude rhythms during recovery nights of sleep may provide corrective mechanisms that contribute to the therapeutic effects of sleep deprivation.
