Abstract
OBJECTIVES The vertebral heart score is a measurement used to index heart size relative to thoracic vertebra. Vertebral heart score can be a useful tool for identifying and staging heart disease and providing prognostic information. The purpose of this study is to validate the use of a vertebral heart score algorithm compared to manual vertebral heart scoring by three board-certified veterinary cardiologists. MATERIALS AND METHODS A convolutional neural network centred around semantic segmentation of relevant anatomical features was developed to predict heart size and vertebral bodies. These predictions were used to calculate the vertebral heart score. An external validation study consisting of 1200 canine lateral radiographs was randomly selected to match the underlying distribution of vertebral heart scores. Three American College of Veterinary Internal Medicine board-certified cardiologists were enrolled to manually score 400 images each using the traditional Buchanan method. Post-scoring, the cardiologists evaluated the algorithm for misaligned anatomic landmarks and overall image quality. RESULTS The 95th percentile absolute difference between the cardiologist vertebral heart score and the algorithm vertebral heart score was 1.05 vertebrae (95% confidence interval: 0.97 to 1.20 vertebrae) with a mean bias of -0.09 vertebrae (95% confidence interval: -0.12 to -0.05 vertebrae). In addition, the model was observed to be well calibrated across the predictive range. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE We have found the performance of the vertebral heart score algorithm comparable to three board-certified cardiologists. While validation of this vertebral heart score algorithm has shown strong performance compared to veterinarians, further external validation in other clinical settings is warranted before use in those settings.

Abstract
PURPOSE A James Lind Alliance priority setting partnership was developed to identify research priorities in breast cancer surgery from individuals with lived experience, at high genetic risk of breast cancer, and healthcare professionals (HCPs). METHODS 'Uncertainties' were collected using an online survey. Following an evidence check and development of summary questions, an interim survey asked participants to rank their top 10 research priorities from the question list. Top-ranked questions from patient/carer, high-risk and professional groups were carried forward for discussion to a final online prioritisation workshop. RESULTS 260 participants (101 patients/carers, 156 HCPs) submitted 940 uncertainties via the initial survey. These were analysed thematically into 128 summary questions in six topic areas. Following evidence checking, 59 questions were included in the interim survey which was completed by 572 respondents. Marked differences were seen in questions prioritised by patients/carers, HCPs and women at high-risk. The top eight priorities in patient/carer and professional groups and top two priorities for high-risk women were carried forward to the online workshop at which 22 participants discussed and agreed the final top 10. Key themes included de-escalation of breast and axillary surgery, factors impacting the development/detection of locoregional recurrence and optimal provision of support for informed treatment decision-making. CONCLUSION The top 10 research priorities in breast cancer surgery have been agreed. However, the observed differences in research priorities identified by patients and professional groups were not anticipated. Top priorities from both groups should inform future UK breast cancer surgical research, to ensure that it addresses questions that are important to breast cancer community as a whole.

Abstract
BACKGROUND No effective pharmacological or non-pharmacological interventions exist for patients with long COVID. We aimed to describe recovery 1 year after hospital discharge for COVID-19, identify factors associated with patient-perceived recovery, and identify potential therapeutic targets by describing the underlying inflammatory profiles of the previously described recovery clusters at 5 months after hospital discharge. METHODS The Post-hospitalisation COVID-19 study (PHOSP-COVID) is a prospective, longitudinal cohort study recruiting adults (aged ≥18 years) discharged from hospital with COVID-19 across the UK. Recovery was assessed using patient-reported outcome measures, physical performance, and organ function at 5 months and 1 year after hospital discharge, and stratified by both patient-perceived recovery and recovery cluster. Hierarchical logistic regression modelling was performed for patient-perceived recovery at 1 year. Cluster analysis was done using the clustering large applications k-medoids approach using clinical outcomes at 5 months. Inflammatory protein profiling was analysed from plasma at the 5-month visit. This study is registered on the ISRCTN Registry, ISRCTN10980107, and recruitment is ongoing. FINDINGS 2320 participants discharged from hospital between March 7, 2020, and April 18, 2021, were assessed at 5 months after discharge and 807 (32·7%) participants completed both the 5-month and 1-year visits. 279 (35·6%) of these 807 patients were women and 505 (64·4%) were men, with a mean age of 58·7 (SD 12·5) years, and 224 (27·8%) had received invasive mechanical ventilation (WHO class 7-9). The proportion of patients reporting full recovery was unchanged between 5 months (501 [25·5%] of 1965) and 1 year (232 [28·9%] of 804). Factors associated with being less likely to report full recovery at 1 year were female sex (odds ratio 0·68 [95% CI 0·46-0·99]), obesity (0·50 [0·34-0·74]) and invasive mechanical ventilation (0·42 [0·23-0·76]). Cluster analysis (n=1636) corroborated the previously reported four clusters: very severe, severe, moderate with cognitive impairment, and mild, relating to the severity of physical health, mental health, and cognitive impairment at 5 months. We found increased inflammatory mediators of tissue damage and repair in both the very severe and the moderate with cognitive impairment clusters compared with the mild cluster, including IL-6 concentration, which was increased in both comparisons (n=626 participants). We found a substantial deficit in median EQ-5D-5L utility index from before COVID-19 (retrospective assessment; 0·88 [IQR 0·74-1·00]), at 5 months (0·74 [0·64-0·88]) to 1 year (0·75 [0·62-0·88]), with minimal improvements across all outcome measures at 1 year after discharge in the whole cohort and within each of the four clusters. INTERPRETATION The sequelae of a hospital admission with COVID-19 were substantial 1 year after discharge across a range of health domains, with the minority in our cohort feeling fully recovered. Patient-perceived health-related quality of life was reduced at 1 year compared with before hospital admission. Systematic inflammation and obesity are potential treatable traits that warrant further investigation in clinical trials.

Background
Established guidelines discuss ICD deactivation and end of life care in ICD patients. A previous study has suggested that 45% of patients with an ICD and do not resuscitate order have not discussed ICD deactivation. In patients receiving radiation therapy for cancer ICD deactivation should be discussed given the life limiting nature of cancer, however it is unclear how frequently this topic is discussed in clinical practice.
Objectives
To report on the frequency of discussions of ICD deactivation in a population of patients receiving radiation therapy for cancer.
Methods
Our hospital is a large regional cancer and cardiac center in Canada. Consecutive patients of our institution presenting to our ICD clinic for ICD checks prior and during receipt of radiation therapy between 2005 and 2019 were included (n=43). Electronic medical records were reviewed to determine demographics, clinical characteristics, documentation of discussions on ICD deactivation, and survival at 1-year.
Results
The cohort was predominantly male (84%), with a primary prevention ICD (65%) without resynchronization capacity (74%). Discussions on ICD deactivation with subsequent deactivations occurred in 12 (28%) patients. During a median follow-up of 4 years 25 patients died, with 28% of these patients dying within 2 years of the ICD clinic encounter. Discussions on ICD deactivation were more frequent in patients who received a palliative care consultation.
Conclusions
End of life conversations regarding ICD deactivation in patients undergoing radiation therapy for cancer are rare. Collaboration with palliative care teams may facilitate conversations on ICD deactivation during this opportune time.

Abstract
The advent of immune-checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) in modern oncology has significantly improved survival in several cancer settings. A subgroup of women with breast cancer (BC) has immunogenic infiltration of lymphocytes with expression of programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1). These patients may potentially benefit from ICI targeting the programmed death 1 (PD-1)/PD-L1 signaling axis. The use of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) as predictive and prognostic biomarkers has been under intense examination. Emerging data suggest that TILs are associated with response to both cytotoxic treatments and immunotherapy, particularly for patients with triple-negative BC. In this review from The International Immuno-Oncology Biomarker Working Group, we discuss (a) the biological understanding of TILs, (b) their analytical and clinical validity and efforts toward the clinical utility in BC, and (c) the current status of PD-L1 and TIL testing across different continents, including experiences from low-to-middle-income countries, incorporating also the view of a patient advocate. This information will help set the stage for future approaches to optimize the understanding and clinical utilization of TIL analysis in patients with BC.

Abstract
Although Life Skills programs showed to improve the psychological and physical
wellbeing of individuals, little attention has been paid, worldwide and in the
Arab countries in specific to implementing life skills intervention for
university students. In this study, we tested the effectiveness of a life skills
based health promotion intervention KHOTWA (STEP) in enhancing the wellbeing of
university students in Lebanon, a country that faces economic and political
instability. This is a quasi-experimental study, with pre and post-test,
intervention-control design. Each group was formed of 78 participants studying
in a private university in Lebanon. Mixed design was used to address the process
and outcomes objectives of the intervention. The program was carried online due
to COVID-19 pandemic. Significant differences were observed between the
intervention and the control groups for life skills, dietary habits and mental
health scores at the 3-month follow-up. For the intervention group, a
significant increase was observed in the mean score of each of the following
Life Skills subscales: self-care (p = 0.001), work and study
(p = 0.013), career and education planning
(p = 0.011) and looking forward/goal settings
(p < 0.001). Students also achieved a healthier eating
habit compared to those in the control group by decreasing their consumption of
processed food. There was no significant effect in terms of body mass index
(p = 0.827). Also, there was a significant change in the
mental health status (p = 0.012) only in the intervention group
as its mean score decreased after 3 months of the intervention implementation.
This intervention enhances the mental health and promotes healthy habits leading
consequently to a better quality of life and more productivity amongst
university students. Therefore, such interventions should be replicated in other
similar context to improve university students’ well-being.

Abstract
PURPOSE To provide recommendations for appropriate dosing of systemic antineoplastic agents in obese adults with cancer. METHODS A systematic review of the literature collected evidence regarding dosing of chemotherapy, immunotherapy, and targeted therapies in obese adults with cancer. PubMed and the Cochrane Library were searched for randomized controlled trials, meta-analyses, or cohort studies published from November 1, 2010, through March 27, 2020. ASCO convened an Expert Panel to review the evidence and formulate recommendations. RESULTS Sixty studies, primarily retrospective, were included in the review. Overall, the evidence supported previous findings that obese adult patients tolerate full, body-size-based dosing of chemotherapy as well as nonobese patients. Fewer studies have addressed the dosing of targeted therapies and immunotherapies in relation to safety and efficacy in obese patients. RECOMMENDATIONS The Panel continues to recommend that full, weight-based cytotoxic chemotherapy doses be used to treat obese adults with cancer. New to this version of the guideline, the Panel also recommends that full, approved doses of immunotherapy and targeted therapies be offered to obese adults with cancer. In the event of toxicity, the consensus of the Panel is that dose modifications of systemic antineoplastic therapies should be handled similarly for obese and nonobese patients. Important areas for future research include the impact of sarcopenia and other measures of body composition on optimal antineoplastic dosing, and more customized dosing based on pharmacokinetic or pharmacogenetic factors.Additional information is available at www.asco.org/supportive-care-guidelines.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Antenatal detection of small-for-gestational age (SGA) can reduce significantly the risk of stillbirth. The Growth Assessment Protocol (GAP) was developed to address the problem that most SGA fetuses are missed antenatally. We set out to analyze the effect that the GAP program has had on stillbirth rates in England. METHODS We analyzed data from 2008 (the year before roll-out of the GAP program) to 2017 (latest available Office for National Statistics (ONS) unit-based data). The program consists of five elements: training, evidence-based guidelines for risk assessment and surveillance of fetal growth, customized charts, recording of process and outcome indicators, and audit of missed SGA cases. All maternity units in England were categorized into one of three groups according to their GAP status in 2017: (1) not in the GAP program; (2) GAP implemented partially (incomplete adoption of protocol, no monitoring and audit); and (3) GAP implemented completely. A subset of the complete-implementation group comprised the 20 units with the highest SGA detection rates. Unit-level live-birth and stillbirth data were obtained from the ONS for each of these groups. RESULTS Stillbirth rates declined across all groups from 2008 to 2017, and significantly more in units in which GAP was implemented completely than in the non-GAP units (P < 0.05). The steepest decline in stillbirth rate was observed in the 20 units with the highest SGA detection rates, which had a 24% lower stillbirth rate compared with the units not using GAP (P < 0.01) in 2017. This difference remained significant after mixed-effects logistic regression analysis of potential confounding, including social deprivation (odds ratio, 0.76 (95% CI, 0.64-0.90)). Assessment of the nine Bradford Hill causality criteria and associated characteristics suggested that the association between implementation of the GAP program and reduction in stillbirth rate was causal. CONCLUSIONS There has been an overall reduction in stillbirth rates in England that is likely to be a result of increased awareness of the importance of antenatal detection of SGA as a key risk factor for stillbirth. The decline in stillbirth rates was significantly greater in maternity units that had fully implemented the GAP program, and was most pronounced in the units with the highest antenatal SGA detection rates. © 2020 The Authors.

BACKGROUND
Exercise stress echocardiography (ESE) is a commonly used investigation for risk stratification in coronary artery disease (CAD). The added value of resting indices such as Global Longitudinal Strain (GLS) and Mechanical Dispersion (MD) to detect obstructive CAD is not well established and would be of significant clinical benefit.
PURPOSE
To evaluate the diagnostic value of GLS and MD at rest and post-exercise during ESE to detect obstructive CAD, defined by angiographic stenosis >70% in any major coronary artery.
METHODS
Retrospective cohort study of 80 consecutive patients who underwent ESE and had coronary angiography (invasive or CT) within 6 months. Retrospective speckle tracking strain analysis was performed on digitally archived video-loops, using vendor independent software. Data on demographics, medications, outcomes and ESE characteristics were collected and analysed.
RESULTS
In 49 (61.3%) patients with any CAD >70%, GLS at rest was lower (-13.9% ± 4.2 vs -16.1% ± 5.2, p-value = 0.04), and MD at rest was higher (81ms ± 43 vs 58ms ± 28, p-value = 0.008), when compared to patients without CAD >70%. GLS and MD measured post-exercise were not significantly different between groups. Ejection fraction (EF) and Wall Motion Score Index (WMSI) at rest and post-exercise were not significantly different between groups. A resting GLS cutpoint of -14% had a sensitivity and specificity of 57/68%, comparable to the development of new regional wall motion abnormalities (71/39%) and peak WMSI >1.2 (59/48%). Additionally, in 39 (48.8%) patients who had >70% stenosis in the left anterior descending (LAD) artery, LS in the LAD territory segments was lower (-16.2% ± 4.4 vs -18.3% ± 4.7, p-value = 0.04), when compared to patients without >70% stenosis in the LAD artery.
CONCLUSION
Resting GLS was lower and MD higher in patients undergoing ESE, who have any CAD >70% compared to patients who do not have any CAD >70%. Resting GLS and MD may increase diagnostic accuracy during ESE to predict obstructive CAD. Further prospective studies evaluating the utility of resting indices to predict functionally significant CAD are required.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aimed to determine the impact of preoperative exposure to intravenous contrast for CT and the risk of developing postoperative acute kidney injury (AKI) in patients undergoing major gastrointestinal surgery. METHODS This prospective, multicentre cohort study included adults undergoing gastrointestinal resection, stoma reversal or liver resection. Both elective and emergency procedures were included. Preoperative exposure to intravenous contrast was defined as exposure to contrast administered for the purposes of CT up to 7 days before surgery. The primary endpoint was the rate of AKI within 7 days. Propensity score-matched models were adjusted for patient, disease and operative variables. In a sensitivity analysis, a propensity score-matched model explored the association between preoperative exposure to contrast and AKI in the first 48 h after surgery. RESULTS A total of 5378 patients were included across 173 centres. Overall, 1249 patients (23·2 per cent) received intravenous contrast. The overall rate of AKI within 7 days of surgery was 13·4 per cent (718 of 5378). In the propensity score-matched model, preoperative exposure to contrast was not associated with AKI within 7 days (odds ratio (OR) 0·95, 95 per cent c.i. 0·73 to 1·21; P = 0·669). The sensitivity analysis showed no association between preoperative contrast administration and AKI within 48 h after operation (OR 1·09, 0·84 to 1·41; P = 0·498). CONCLUSION There was no association between preoperative intravenous contrast administered for CT up to 7 days before surgery and postoperative AKI. Risk of contrast-induced nephropathy should not be used as a reason to avoid contrast-enhanced CT.

Abstract
The Drosophila heart provides a simple model to examine the remodelling of muscle insertions with growth, extracellular matrix (ECM) turnover, and fibrosis. Between hatching and pupation, the Drosophila heart increases in length five-fold. If major cardiac ECM components are secreted remotely, how is ECM "self assembly" regulated? We explored whether ECM proteases were required to maintain the morphology of a growing heart while the cardiac ECM expanded. An increase in expression of Drosophila's single tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase (TIMP), or reduced function of metalloproteinase MMP2, resulted in fibrosis and ectopic deposition of two ECM Collagens; type-IV and fibrillar Pericardin. Significant accumulations of Collagen-IV (Viking) developed on the pericardium and in the lumen of the heart. Congenital defects in Pericardin deposition misdirected further assembly in the larva. Reduced metalloproteinase activity during growth also increased Pericardin fibre accumulation in ECM suspending the heart. Although MMP2 expression was required to remodel and position cardiomyocyte cell junctions, reduced MMP function did not impair expansion of the heart. A previous study revealed that MMP2 negatively regulates the size of the luminal cell surface in the embryonic heart. Cardiomyocytes align at the midline, but do not adhere to enclose a heart lumen in MMP2 mutant embryos. Nevertheless, these embryos hatch and produce viable larvae with bifurcated hearts, indicating a secondary pathway to lumen formation between ipsilateral cardiomyocytes. MMP-mediated remodelling of the ECM is required for organogenesis, and to prevent assembly of excess or ectopic ECM protein during growth. MMPs are not essential for normal growth of the Drosophila heart.

Abstract
Abstract
A collaborative study involving 26 laboratories and 5 food types was performed to compare the TECRA Listeria Visual Immunoassay (TLVIA) with standard culture methods. Three foods (lettuce, ice cream, and fish fillets), under the jurisdiction of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, and 2 foods (cooked chicken and cooked ground turkey), under the jurisdiction of the U.S. Department of Agriculture, were used to determine the effectiveness of the TLVIA. Of the 900 samples tested, 300 were inoculated with low levels (1-5 cells/25 g) of Listeria spp. and 300 were inoculated with high levels of Listeria spp. (10-50 cells/25 g). Method agreement between the conventional culture methods and TLVIA (visual) was 94.7%. Method agreement between the conventional culture methods and TLVIA (reader) was 93.6%. The colorimetric polyclonal enzyme immunoassay (TLVIA) for detection of Listeria in foods has been adopted first action by AOAC INTERNATIONAL.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Maxillary Lateral Incisor Agenesis (MLIA) pose significant orthodontic and restorative challenges. The aim of this study was to evaluate dental factors and their effect on decision making for MLIA. METHODS This is a retrospective study of patients who attended the Edinburgh Dental Institute between 2007 and 2016. Patients with unilateral or bilateral MLIA were included. Excusion criteria: inadequate pre-treatment records, hypodontia of additional teeth as well as MLIA, a craniofacial syndrome, previous orthodontic treatment. Archived records were used to record relevant dental features and treatment decisions. The independent variables were age, gender, overjet, molar relationship, space availability for lateral incisors, and canine aesthetics. The dependent variable was treatment outcome (orthodontic space opening or closing). Multiple regression models were used to identify predictors of treatment outcome. RESULTS 44 patients were included in the study (30 female and 14 male). Mean age was 13.7 (SD 2.3) years. Fifteen patients (34.1%) had space closure and 29 patients (65.9%) received space opening. Space availability was the only significant predictor of treatment outcome within the regression model (p=0.02). CONCLUSIONS Presence of adequate space in the maxillary arch is associated with orthodontic space opening for MLIA.

Abstract
Background Childhood asthma is a common condition. Currently there is no validated objective test which can be used to guide asthma treatment in children. This study tests the hypothesis that the addition of fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FENO) monitoring in addition to standard care reduces the number of exacerbations (or attacks) in children with asthma. Methods This is a multi-centre, randomised controlled study. Children will be included of age 6–16 years who have a diagnosis of asthma, currently use inhaled corticosteroids (ICSs) and have had an exacerbation in the previous 12 months. Exclusion criteria include being unable to provide FENO measurement at baseline assessment, having another chronic respiratory condition and being currently treated with maintenance oral steroids. Participants will be recruited in both primary and secondary care settings and will be randomised to either receive asthma treatment guided by FENO plus symptoms (FENO group) or asthma treatment guided by symptoms only (standard care group). Within the FENO group, different treatment decisions will be made dependent on changes in FENO. Participants will attend assessments 3, 6, 9 and 12 months post randomisation. The primary outcome is asthma exacerbation requiring prescription and/or use of an oral corticosteroid over 12 months as recorded by the participant/parent or in general practitioner records. Secondary outcomes include time to first attack, number of attacks, asthma control score and quality of life. Adherence to ICS treatment is objectively measured by an electronic logging device. Participants are invited to participate in a “phenotyping” assessment where skin prick reactivity and bronchodilator response are determined and a saliva sample is collected for DNA extraction. Qualitative interviews will be held with participants and research nurses. A health economic evaluation will take place. Discussion This study will evaluate whether FENO can provide an objective index to guide and stratify asthma treatment in children. Trial registration ISRCTN, ISRCTN67875351. Registered on 12 April 2017. Prospectively registered.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess the separate and combined associations of maternal pre-pregnancy body mass index (BMI) and gestational weight gain with the risks of pregnancy complications and their population impact. DESIGN Individual participant data meta-analysis of 39 cohorts. SETTING Europe, North America, and Oceania. POPULATION 265 270 births. METHODS Information on maternal pre-pregnancy BMI, gestational weight gain, and pregnancy complications was obtained. Multilevel binary logistic regression models were used. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Gestational hypertension, pre-eclampsia, gestational diabetes, preterm birth, small and large for gestational age at birth. RESULTS Higher maternal pre-pregnancy BMI and gestational weight gain were, across their full ranges, associated with higher risks of gestational hypertensive disorders, gestational diabetes, and large for gestational age at birth. Preterm birth risk was higher at lower and higher BMI and weight gain. Compared with normal weight mothers with medium gestational weight gain, obese mothers with high gestational weight gain had the highest risk of any pregnancy complication (odds ratio 2.51, 95% CI 2.31- 2.74). We estimated that 23.9% of any pregnancy complication was attributable to maternal overweight/obesity and 31.6% of large for gestational age infants was attributable to excessive gestational weight gain. CONCLUSIONS Maternal pre-pregnancy BMI and gestational weight gain are, across their full ranges, associated with risks of pregnancy complications. Obese mothers with high gestational weight gain are at the highest risk of pregnancy complications. Promoting a healthy pre-pregnancy BMI and gestational weight gain may reduce the burden of pregnancy complications and ultimately the risk of maternal and neonatal morbidity. TWEETABLE ABSTRACT Promoting a healthy body mass index and gestational weight gain might reduce the population burden of pregnancy complications.

Abstract
Abstract
OBJECTIVES: Outcomes for patients with MBC vary according to disease phenotype and treatment history. We present UK real-world patient characteristics, treatment patterns and outcomes for patients with HR+/HER2- BC treated at a single cancer center.
METHODS: A retrospective review of health records including coded data, unstructured text and clinical review of patients treated from January 2012 to March 2018 identified females ≥ 18 years with metastatic or locally advanced HR+/HER2- BC. Those enrolled in clinical trials, with operable local recurrence as only disease site, incomplete treatment records or significant secondary malignancy were excluded. Patient characteristics, systemic, local (radiotherapy/surgery) and supportive treatments, health care resource use (HRU) and overall survival (OS) are presented. OS was estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method, censoring patients alive at study end.
RESULTS: 253 patients meeting study inclusion criteria were identified (median age 67, IQR 56,76; 84% post-menopausal), of whom 47 (19%) had locally advanced disease (T4 and/or N3), 75 (30%) had MBC at initial presentation and 131 (52%) had metastatic disease at first recurrence. Among patients with MBC at initial presentation, all received systemic treatment following diagnosis, including chemotherapy (35%), endocrine (93%) and targeted therapy (i.e. everolimus 7%). Among those recurring with MBC, 97% subsequently received systemic treatment, including chemotherapy (50%), endocrine (93%) and targeted therapy (27%). For patients recurring with MBC, the most common first line therapies (LoT) were letrozole (20%), exemestane (single agent, 15%), anastrozole (14%), everolimus (with exemestane, 11%) and paclitaxel (9%). For patients diagnosed with MBC, the most common first LoT were letrozole (47%), anastrozole (23%) and EC (11%). At second LoT, the most commonly used regimen for patients recurring with MBC was fulvestrant (13%) and for patients with MBC at initial diagnosis, it was exemestane (19%). Median OS for patients recurring with MBC was estimated to be 2.11 years (IQR 1.80,3.05), compared with 2.65 years (IQR 2.24,2.95) for those with metastatic disease at initial diagnosis. Median available follow-up time for the whole cohort was 2.85 years (IQR 1.42,4.82).
CONCLUSIONS: Patients with overt metastatic disease at presentation comprise a substantial proportion of those treated for MBC. With the follow-up time available, estimated median OS for patients with metastatic disease at initial presentation appears somewhat better than for those recurring with metastatic disease. Real world analysis demonstrates diverse treatment pathways for patients with HR+, HER2- MBC, reflecting the individualized care they receive.

Abstract
UNLABELLED These data present associations between socioeconomic status (SES), different types of childhood maltreatment (CM) history and family dysfunction, and arthritis in men and women across a wide age range. Arthritis was less likely among those with higher SES, regardless of CM history. INTRODUCTION CM has been associated with increased risk of adult-onset arthritis; however, little is known about whether socioeconomic status moderates arthritis risk in those with CM history. We investigated arthritis across education, income, and race/ethnicity and whether CM moderated associations between SES and arthritis. METHODS Data were drawn from Wave 2 (2004-2005) of the nationally representative (USA) National Epidemiological Survey on Alcohol and Related Conditions (NESARC, n = 34,563; aged ≥ 20 years). Self-reported CM history included physical abuse, sexual abuse, emotional abuse, emotional neglect, physical neglect, and exposure to intimate partner violence (IPV). We used descriptive statistics and logistic regression to determine relationships between SES, CM, and arthritis. Interaction terms were used to test if CM moderated relationships between SES and arthritis. RESULTS Arthritis prevalence was 21.1% (n = 3093) among men and 30.1% (n = 6167) among women. In unadjusted analyses, women (p ≤ 0.001) and older age (both sexes, p ≤ 0.01) were associated with increased odds of arthritis. All CM types were associated with increased odds of arthritis, except exposure to IPV among women. In sex-stratified, age-adjusted analyses, lower education and income, family dysfunction, being Hispanic or Asian/Native Hawaiian/Pacific Islander, and ≥ 1 physical comorbidity were associated with increased odds of arthritis among those with and without CM: trends were similar for both sexes. In age-adjusted two-way interaction terms, CM did not moderate associations between SES and arthritis. CONCLUSIONS Although CM was associated with arthritis, associations between SES and arthritis were not amplified. Arthritis was less likely among those with higher SES, regardless of CM history.

Abstract
Dehorning is a common practice in cattle farming. Researchers suggest that pain during dehorning can be mitigated, although there is no conclusive evidence about the best technique and the best manner of pain relief. A systematic review-meta-analysis was performed to clarify the effect of dehorning on welfare indicators (cortisol concentration or average daily gain or vocalisation) in beef cattle up to 12 months of age. Five electronic databases were systematically searched, as well as conference proceedings and experts were contacted electronically. Pre-defined protocols were applied during all steps of the systematic review process. A random effect meta-analysis was conducted for each indicator separately with the mean of the control and treated groups. Four publications reporting seven studies and 69 trials were included in the MA involving 287 cattle. Heterogeneity between studies was observed for cortisol (I2
= 50.5%), average daily gain (I2
= 70.5%), and vocalisation (I2
= 91.9%). When comparing the non-dehorned group with amputation dehorning, the cortisol concentration was lower 30 min (P < 0.0001) and 120 min (P = 0.023) after procedure (0.767 nmol/L and 0.680 nmol/L, respectively). Local anaesthesia did not show a reduction in cortisol concentration at 30 min after dehorning by amputation. Non-dehorned animals had a tendency to decrease the number of vocalisation (P = 0.081; MD = 0.929) compared with the group dehorned by amputation. These results suggest that dehorning is a painful experience and that local anaesthesia did not alleviate short-term pain following dehorning. Further investigation into pain relief is required to improve confident decision making under practical conditions.

Abstract
We report a case of public health activism which began as a formal complaint lodged with the Advertising Standards Authority (ASA) on 24 June 2017 against Nestlé, a major global ultra-processed food manufacturer. A television advertisement for Nestlé's Milkybar included the copy 'It's the simple things that are the most fun. That's why milk is now our No.1 ingredient'. However, the main nutritional constituent in Milkybar is sugar at 53%, and therefore we complained to the ASA that the advert was misleading. The ASA rejected the complaint, referring to the manufacturer's claim that milk, at 37%, was the biggest ingredient, rather than constituent, and therefore the advert was not misleading. We countered that the largest ingredient was not milk, but milk powder, a processed food, the lactose from which contributes to the 53% free sugars in the product. This argument was also rejected by the ASA, as were later complaints to Food Standards Scotland (FSS) regarding Nestlé's failure to provide front of pack colour coded nutritional information despite their being party to a voluntary agreement to do so in 2013. An enquiry to Nestlé was met by a response citing the voluntary nature of the nutritional information agreement, and lack of space on packs. A final email to Nestlé claiming a breach of their corporate business principles was rejected. We conclude that the ASA's decision not to investigate our case fully represents a failure to protect the public from misleading advertising, undermining the ASA's own role and campaign to regulate advertising that may contribute to childhood obesity and dental caries. FSS appears relaxed about Nestlé's lack of compliance with the nutritional information agreement. Despite this experience, we recommend that complaints to regulatory bodies such as the ASA and FSS continue, if only to expose the weakness of current regulations.

Abstract
Background: Cervical cancer is one of the most prevalent cancers in Honduran women. Lacking national or population-based registries, we rely on hospital registries to establish incidence: San Felipe General Hospital in 2012 diagnosed 38% of 998 women and The League against Cancer Hospital (LCC) in 2016 diagnosed 54.4% of 695 women with cervical cancer CC. According to PAHO's Honduras Profile 2013, screening coverage with Pap was 48.1%. Bruni in 2010 reported a prevalence of high risk HPV (hrHPV) infection for Central America of 13%, identifying genotypes 16, 18, 52, 31 and 58 as most frequent. Information about pathogenesis of hrHPV to induce cervical lesions is based on models of genotypes 16 and 18 only. Aim: Inform evidence of hrHPV genotypes collected in Honduras from an urban and a rural population, generate discussion and subsequent improvement of cervical cancer control strategies in our country. Methods: In 2016, 2 clinical studies funded by Norris Cotton Cancer Center at Dartmouth College and the LCC accrued 913 women: 401 in Locomapa Valley (rural), 111 in La Mosquitia (remote rural), and 401 in a textile factory in San Pedro Sula (urban). Women were consented, to obtain 3 cervical samples, during a cervical cancer screening brigade. One sample for conventional cytology, and 2 for hrHPV by PCR genotyping. One local with our customized PCR device and the second at Dartmouth. An educational component and survey were included. Positive patients identified with hrHPV, pre or invasive cancer were referred to LCC for treatment and follow-up. Results: In Locomapa and the factory (rural and urban sites) 13% of participants were positive for hrHPV. Only 15% had HPV 16. The following common genotypes varied by location: urban factory HPV 59, 12% in rural location HPV 58, 10%; HPV 31, 9%; HPV 39 8%; HPV 35 and 66, 7%; HPV 45 and 51, 6%; HPV 18 and 56, 3%; HPV 33 and 52, 1%. 17% of women had multiple hrHPV coinfection. 7.7% had abnormal Pap tests. In La Mosquitia (remote rural), 24% of women were positive for hrHPV: HPV 52, 29%; HPV 16, 23%; HPV 39, 10%; HPV 68, 6%; HPV 58, 6%; HPV 45, 6%; HPV 51 and HPV 31, 18, 66, 59 and 35, 3% each. 1.8% had abnormal Pap tests; all participants identified with hrHPV were referred for follow-up. The average age was 40.3 years, parity, 3 children, education 6.0 years; and 15% were first-time users of a cervical screening program. Conclusion: Associate the burden of disease, with risk factors, will help us to generate models of prevention and care that are reproducible and effective to reduce morbi-mortality. Brigade-type screening models, with trained providers working at a community location over a single day, can offer improved access for women at risk and facilitate educational activities for health promotion. Introducing tests as hrHPV DNA detection, effectively reduces the volume of women to follow. Strengthening the capacity of primary care with novel screening techniques and ensure diligent follow-up is essential.
