Abstract
With limited healthcare resources, it is important to provide the right level and form of care. The aim of this study was to determine whether selected single-jaw orthognathic surgery in outpatient care (OPC) generates lower healthcare costs than in inpatient care (IPC). The costs of surgically assisted rapid maxillary expansion (SARME), Le Fort I osteotomy (LFI), and bilateral sagittal split osteotomy (BSSO) were calculated for 165 patients, 107 treated in OPC and 58 in IPC. Additionally, costs for revisits, emergency visits, emergency phone calls, re-operations, and plate removal during the first 12 months postoperatively were recorded. The total mean costs of the different operations including revisits, emergency visits, and phone calls were 34.2-48.8% lower in OPC than in IPC at 12 months postoperatively. Operation costs were lower for LFI in OPC (P = 0.009) and for SARME in IPC (P = 0.007). Anaesthesia costs were lower for LFI (P < 0.001) and BSSO (P < 0.001) in OPC, and there were fewer revisits (P = 0.001) and lower costs (P = 0.002) after LFI in OPC compared to IPC. This study showed that selected single-jaw orthognathic surgeries in outpatient care are associated with lower healthcare costs compared to inpatient care.

Abstract
In order to characterise soft tissue tumours, pathologists often utilise specialised additional tests, or may seek opinions from subspecialist pathologists due to rarity or complex morphology. Additionally, further review may be sought by subspecialist sarcoma pathologists, such as those at our tertiary referral centre in Sydney, Australia. The aim of this study was to examine the impact on diagnosis and management of this external review, following diagnosis at a specialised sarcoma unit. We collated the results of all additional external ancillary tests and specialist reviews over a 10-year period and characterised the impact on the preliminary diagnosis as 'confirmed', 'new' or 'no clear diagnosis'. We subsequently noted whether the additional findings resulted in a clinically significant change in management. Of the 136 cases sent away, 103 patients had their initial diagnosis confirmed, 29 patients received a new diagnosis and, for four patients, the diagnosis remained uncertain. Nine of the 29 patients receiving a new diagnosis had their management altered. This study demonstrated that within our specialised sarcoma unit, the majority of diagnoses provided by our specialist pathologists are confirmed on additional external testing and review, but external review does provide additional assurance and benefit to the patient.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE COVID-19 toes represent the main dermatological COVID-19 cutaneous manifestation in pediatric patients. Its diagnosis exposes the whole family to social stigma and this aspect was not previously evaluated. PATIENTS AND METHODS This was a multicenter, case-control, observational study that compared the family impact of COVID-19 toes vs. psoriasis (PsO). We enrolled 46 pediatric patients (23 with psoriasis and 23 with COVID-19 toes, age and gender matched) and their parents/caregivers that had to fill the Dermatitis Family Impact (DFI) questionnaire. RESULTS DFI index did not differ significantly between both subgroups (p=0.48), and in psoriatic patients did not correlate with both Psoriasis Area Severity Index (PASI) (p=0.59) and itch-VAS (p=0.16). CONCLUSIONS COVID-19 toes, a transitory dermatosis, exerted a similar impact/perturbation on family dynamics than PsO, a well-known stigmatizing, chronic inflammatory dermatosis.

Abstract
Decreased physical activity (PA) has been associated with residents living in neighborhoods perceived as being disordered or having high crime levels. What is unknown are the characteristics of individuals who engage in moderate to vigorous levels of PA (MVPA) despite living in these vulnerable neighborhoods, or who may be referred to as positive deviants (PD). We examined the factors associated with PD for PA among Jamaicans. Between 2016 and 2017 the Jamaica Health and Lifestyle Survey, a cross-sectional nationally representative survey (n = 2807), was conducted on individuals aged 15 years and older. Regression analyses were performed to identify associations with PD, defined using engagement in MVPA among persons living in vulnerable neighborhoods (N = 1710). Being female (odds ratio [OR]a = 0.64 (0.48, 0.86); p = 0.003), obese while living in an urban area (ORa = 0.39; 95 % CI = 0.26, 0.59; p < 0.0001), unemployed (ORa = 0.53; 95 % CI = 0.39, 0.73; p < 0.0001), or a student (ORa = 0.62; 95 % CI = 0.39, 0.98); p = 0.041) was associated with a significantly lower likelihood of PD, while having a personal medical history of at least one chronic disease significantly increased likelihood (ORa = 1.43; 95 % CI = 1.08, 1.90; p = 0.014). Taking a PD approach may be one angle to consider in trying to determine what is working and for whom, so that this may be harnessed in policy, prevention and intervention programming to increase PA.

Abstract
Purpose We hypothesized that despite the low incidence of severe SARS-CoV-2 infections in children in Guyana, due to their specific skillset in lung protective ventilation, our Pediatric Intensivists were uniquely positioned to address significant training and readiness gaps in our colleagues attending a surging critically ill Adult COVID-19 patient population. Methods & Materials In Guyana, there are few clinicians trained in Critical-Care Medicine (CCM). The high incidence of ventilator dependence in seriously ill SARS-CoV2 patients, combined with a dearth of CCM practitioners competent in complex mechanical ventilation management left Guyana ill prepared to manage these patients. This knowledge deficit was further exacerbated in that many clinicians at our National Infectious Diseases Hospital were co-opted into CCM roles from other specialties with little to no CCM training. We have a very small core of Pediatric Surgical Critical Care Medicine staff that was formally trained in PCCM outside of Guyana. This core was instrumental in establishing a unique and formal Pediatric Critical-Care Medicine Micro-Modular Fellowship (PCCM-MMF) program that allowed the creation of Guyana's only Pediatric ICU. A significant number of that core are also involved in Guyana‘s National COVID Task Force. Given that all graduates of our PCCM-MMF program are extensively trained in Lung Protective Ventilation, it was very appropriate to utilize them to augment Adult critical care capacity. Thirty physicians with primarily adult practices and little to no previous knowledge of ventilator management were enrolled in a multi-modal triphasic mechanical ventilation short course facilitated by PCCM staff. Results We were able to rapidly enable two cohorts of 15 Adult clinicians to competently address critical knowledge deficits and staffing shortfalls. We improved morbidity and mortality amongst our mechanically ventilated adult COVID-19 patients, as well as relieved significant multifactorial caregiver strain. Conclusion Our successful utilization of PCCM staff as Mechanical Ventilation didactic and clinical educators for an Adult patient population carries implications for cross disciplinary Knowledge Translation and Implementation Science in a wide variety of practice milieus. We are actively pursuing research opportunities to further experiment with other skill sets incorporated in our PCCM Micro-Modular Fellowship and welcome potential collaborators.

Abstract
One-quarter of patients with acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF) experience acute kidney injury (AKI)—an abrupt reduction or loss of kidney function associated with increased long-term mortality. There is a critical need to identify early and real-time markers of AKI in ADHF; however, to date, no protein biomarkers have exhibited sufficient diagnostic or prognostic performance for widespread clinical uptake. We aimed to identify novel protein biomarkers of AKI associated with ADHF by quantifying changes in protein abundance in the kidneys that occur during ADHF development and recovery in an ovine model. Relative quantitative protein profiling was performed using sequential window acquisition of all theoretical fragment ion spectra–mass spectrometry (SWATH–MS) in kidney cortices from control sheep (n = 5), sheep with established rapid-pacing-induced ADHF (n = 8), and sheep after ~4 weeks recovery from ADHF (n = 7). Of the 790 proteins quantified, we identified 17 candidate kidney injury markers in ADHF, 1 potential kidney marker of ADHF recovery, and 2 potential markers of long-term renal impairment (differential abundance between groups of 1.2–2.6-fold, adjusted p < 0.05). Among these 20 candidate protein markers of kidney injury were 6 candidates supported by existing evidence and 14 novel candidates not previously implicated in AKI. Proteins of differential abundance were enriched in pro-inflammatory signalling pathways: glycoprotein VI (activated during ADHF development; adjusted p < 0.01) and acute phase response (repressed during recovery from ADHF; adjusted p < 0.01). New biomarkers for the early detection of AKI in ADHF may help us to evaluate effective treatment strategies to prevent mortality and improve outcomes for patients.

Abstract
This paper contributes to research on health disparities among rural and urban residents by considering differences in the magnitude of genetic associations for physical health, mental health, and health behaviors across the two settings. Previous research has shown reduced genetic associations in rural compared to urban settings but none have utilized current genome-wide polygenic scores and none have focused on older adults. Using a sample of 14,994 adults from the 1992 to 2016 waves of the Health and Retirement Study our results suggest genetic associations for BMI (p<.018) and heart conditions (p < .023) are significantly reduced in rural compared to urban settings and we find weak evidence in support of this association for depression (p. < .065) and no evidence for smoking (p < 461). In sum, the weaker genetic associations in rural areas highlights the centrality of the social, economic, and built environment as a determinant of disparities.

Abstract
MYC over-expression by immunohistochemistry (IHC) is utilised in routine pathology practice as a surrogate marker for MYC amplification, which plays a key oncogenic role in post-irradiation and chronic lymphedema-associated angiosarcoma. We present the case of a 32-year old male, who presented with high-grade angiosarcoma arising in a background of metastatic testicular teratoma. IHC for MYC showed strong nuclear expression in the angiosarcoma cells prompting the consideration of post-irradiation-induced angiosarcoma but our patient did not undergo radiotherapy. Fluorescence in-situ hybridization (FISH) excluded MYC amplification and instead showed Chromosome 8 polysomy, which accounted for the strong MYC IHC expression present, not previously described in the context of germ cell tumours. The occurrence of MYC over-expression due to polysomy illustrates a novel clinical scenario (angiosarcoma arising as somatic malignancy) where strong MYC IHC expression can be found in the absence of underlying amplification or prior radiotherapy exposure.

Abstract
Myoepithelioma-like tumours of the vulvar region (MELTVR) are a newly described group of spindle cell neoplasm. Morphologically, they consist of epithelioid to spindled cells in a myxoid to collagenous stroma and can resemble epithelioid sarcomas, myoepithelial carcinomas or extraskeletal myxoid chondrosarcomas. However, they have a distinct pattern of immunohistochemical staining characterised by positivity for EMA, ER, PR and negativity for cytokeratin, GFAP and S100. Nuclear staining for INI-1 is lost. In addition, they lack the characteristic gene arrangements of these other lesions. MELTVR can recur locally when incompletely excised, however, do not appear to metastasize. We report a case of a MELTVR in a 49-year-old woman arising in the right mons pubis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF) is associated with deterioration in renal function-an important risk factor for poor outcomes. Whether ADHF results in permanent kidney damage/dysfunction is unknown. METHODS AND RESULTS We investigated for the first time the renal responses to the development of, and recovery from, ADHF using an ovine model. ADHF development induced pronounced hemodynamic changes, neurohormonal activation, and decline in renal function, including decreased urine, sodium and urea excretion, and creatinine clearance. Following ADHF recovery (25 days), creatinine clearance reductions persisted. Kidney biopsies taken during ADHF and following recovery showed widespread mesangial cell prominence, early mild acute tubular injury, and medullary/interstitial fibrosis. Renal transcriptomes identified altered expression of 270 genes following ADHF development and 631 genes following recovery. A total of 47 genes remained altered post-recovery. Pathway analysis suggested gene expression changes, driven by a network of inflammatory cytokines centered on IL-1β (interleukin 1β), lead to repression of reno-protective eNOS (endothelial nitric oxide synthase) signaling during ADHF development, and following recovery, activation of glomerulosclerosis and reno-protective pathways and repression of proinflammatory/fibrotic pathways. A total of 31 dysregulated genes encoding proteins detectable in urine, serum, and plasma identified potential candidate markers for kidney repair (including CNGA3 [cyclic nucleotide gated channel subunit alpha 3] and OIT3 [oncoprotein induced transcript 3]) or long-term renal impairment in ADHF (including ACTG2 [actin gamma 2, smooth muscle] and ANGPTL4 [angiopoietin like 4]). CONCLUSIONS In an ovine model, we provide the first direct evidence that an episode of ADHF leads to an immediate decline in kidney function that failed to fully resolve after ≈4 weeks and is associated with persistent functional/structural kidney injury. We identified molecular pathways underlying kidney injury and repair in ADHF and highlighted 31 novel candidate biomarkers for acute kidney injury in this setting.

Abstract
Background:Inflammatory thoracic aortitis is a cause of aneurysm and is often diagnosed incidentally following aortic replacement surgery. It may be due to systemic diseases such as giant cell arteritis (GCA) and Takayasu arteritis (TAK) or a topographically isolated variant termed clinically isolated aortitis (CIA). While CIA is identified in 2-12% of thoracic aortic surgical pathology,1 its short-term post-operative outcome is unknown.Objectives:This study was undertaken to examine the short-term post-operative mortality and morbidity of patients with surgically resected thoracic aortitis compared to those with non-inflammatory thoracic aortic aneurysms and assess if outcomes varied based on post-operative corticosteroid therapy.Methods:The study was based at three tertiary referral hospitals in Sydney, Australia, for the years 2004-2018. Prospectively collected data was accessed from a national surgical registry for all patients who underwent thoracic aortic aneurysm replacement. Aortitis patients were identified from histopathology records.Inpatient medical records were reviewed to categorise aortitis cases as CIA, GCA, TAK or other aortitis and to audit the use of corticosteroids. Outcomes were compared between aortitis cases and the non-inflammatory cohort using logistic regressions, controlling for age, sex, year of procedure, and hospital.Results:41 aortitis cases were identified from the cohort of 1119 surgical patients (3.7%). 27 (66%) met criteria for CIA, 11 (27%) for GCA, 2 (5%) for TAK, and 1 (2%) for Other. 8 (20%) received corticosteroid therapy for aortitis.Compared with non-inflammatory patients, the aortitis cohort was predominantly female (54% vs 28%, p < 0.01), older (mean 70 vs 62 years, p < 0.01), and had higher rates of hypertension (83% vs 67%, p = 0.03) and pre-operative immunosuppression (10% vs 1%, p < 0.01).There was no difference (p > 0.05) between the aortitis and the non-aortitis groups for 30-day mortality (7% vs 7%), composite significant morbidity (15% vs 22%), composite infection (10% vs 6%), return to theatre for bleeding (7% vs 13%), stroke (5% vs 5%) or readmission (12% vs 10%). Similar results were also seen for CIA and the aortitis subgroup who did not receive corticoid steroid therapy when compared to the non-aortitis group (table 1).Table 1.30-day mortality and morbidityNon-aortitisAll aortitisAortitis, not treated for aortitisCIAn=1078n=41n=33n=27%n%n%n%nMortality770736241Stroke557526241Return to theatre bleed13137736241Composite morbidity22241156155113Composite infection66910493113Readmission10108125124113Note: Differences in outcomes between the aortitis groups and the no aortitis group were modelled using logistic regression, controlling for age, sex, year of procedure, and hospital.

Composite morbidity; an outcome comprised of return to theatre for bleeding, stroke, new renal failure, acute myocardial infarction or aortic dissection. Composite infection; an outcome comprised of 30-day pneumonia, septicaemia, deep sternal wound infection or deep thoracotomy infection.Conclusion:The finding of thoracic aortitis following aortic replacement surgery does not affect short-term post-operative mortality or morbidity. Corticosteroid therapy in the immediate post-operative period did not impact upon short-term outcomes.References:[1]Quimson L, Mayer A, Capponi S, et al.

Abstract
We use genome-wide data from the 1992-2016 Health and Retirement Study (n = 12,090) to characterize obesity among older adults as genetically or socially oriented. To illustrate the significance of this approach for social epidemiological research, we deem those with the lowest genetic risk for obesity to be socially-behaviorally obese and obesity among those with the highest polygenic risk is characterized as genetically oriented. We then examine the association between obesity and four indicators of cardiovascular health (type-2 diabetes, hypertension, heart problems, and stroke) among those with low, average, and high genetic risk. Our results show that the association between obesity and cardiovascular health is significantly higher for those with the lowest genetic risk (e.g., social-behavioral obesity). We also demonstrate important sex differences such that this association is particularly strong for heart problems among men and hypertension and stroke among women. Our results further demonstrate the centrality of the social and behavioral determinants of health by utilizing detailed information across the human genome and add to both social and genetic epidemiology literatures.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
The discovery of new markers for acute kidney injury (AKI) in acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF) has been hampered by an incomplete understanding of the pathological processes underlying AKI in ADHF.
Purpose
In a sheep model of ADHF, we investigated changes in kidney gene expression in response to the development of, and recovery from, ADHF.
Methods
We collected serial kidney biopsies from 6 sheep prior to rapid cardiac pacing (day 0), after development of ADHF (pacing @220bpm for 14 days), and at the end of a 25-day (non-pacing) recovery period. Serial biopsies were supplemented with kidney samples collected post-mortem from animals undergoing a similar pacing/recovery protocol, giving a total of 11 “baseline” (B), 13 “heart failure” (HF) and 8 “recovery” (R) samples. We prepared RNA-Sequencing libraries using total RNA and Illumina TruSeq stranded mRNA library kits. Hormonal, haemodynamic, biochemical and urine measurements were also performed in all sheep before, during, and after development of ADHF. The study followed the principles of laboratory animal care and was approved by our institution's Animal Ethics Committee.
Results
We observed profound changes in hormonal, haemodynamic, biochemical and urine measures of cardio-renal injury in all sheep, confirming simulation of the peripheral consequences of ADHF, including clinically-relevant kidney dysfunction. This occurred in conjunction with altered kidney expression of 982 genes during ADHF development and 1,807 genes during ADHF recovery (p adj.<0.05, Fig 1). During ADHF development, changes in kidney gene expression were associated with activation of the pro-inflammatory p38 MAPK pathway and repression of several anti-inflammatory and reno-protective pathways, including eNOS signalling (all p adj.<0.001). In contrast, during ADHF recovery, changes in kidney gene expression were associated with reactivation of reno-protective pathways repressed during ADHF development, activation of anti-fibrotic pathways (including PTEN signalling) and repression of pathways that mediate inflammation and renal injury (including NF-kB signalling, all p adj.<0.001). Among 431 ADHF “responsive” genes (i.e. those that increased during ADHF development and decreased during ADHF recovery, or vice versa, Fig. 1), 37 genes encoded proteins detectable in plasma or urine and may represent markers of kidney repair in ADHF. Although most gene expression changes were transient, 192 genes remained altered after 4-weeks recovery (p adj.<0.05, Fig 1). Of these, 13 genes were predicted to encode proteins detectable in plasma or urine and may represent persistent markers of kidney injury in ADHF.
Conclusion
Our data provide the first insight into the gene pathways associated with kidney injury and repair in ADHF, in an established ovine model. Understanding the pathological processes underlying AKI in ADHF may enable discovery of novel markers for monitoring kidney injury and repair in ADHF.

Abstract
Background Lymphocytic myocarditis is an uncommon condition with a variety of clinical presentations. Isolated involvement of the right ventricle (RV) is very rare. We present a case of a young woman who developed right ventricular dysfunction and arrhythmias as a consequence of this condition, which appeared to be chronic at diagnosis. Case summary A 26-year-old lady was admitted to hospital following routine echocardiography, requested for screening of pulmonary hypertension in the context of known hypersensitivity pneumonitis. This echocardiogram demonstrated severe right ventricular dilatation and impairment. She was also experiencing atrial fibrillation and non-sustained, symptomatic episodes of ventricular tachycardia. Endomyocardial biopsy revealed lymphocytic myocarditis. She was managed with azathioprine and prednisone, as well as sotalol and apixaban for her atrial fibrillation, and has had no complications in the 12 months since discharge. Discussion Lymphocytic myocarditis isolated to the RV has only been reported in two previous cases, both of which were acute, dramatic presentations. This is the first report of a chronic example of this disease process. Due to her intercurrent immunosuppression, this patient may have been pre-disposed to the condition either by re-activation of a latent viral infection or partial treatment of a true autoimmune lymphocytic myocarditis.

Abstract
PURPOSE To study pain perception in 10-15-year-olds, during and after uncomplicated extractions of bilateral maxillary premolars. The study investigated pain's natural course and made comparisons between the first and second extractions. METHODS 31 Swedish children in need of orthodontic treatment were identified and consecutively enrolled. Tooth extractions followed a standardised protocol and the two teeth were extracted with at least 10 days between. The participants rated pain intensity using visual analogue scale (VAS) at 14 different time points from treatment and 7 days forward. RESULTS The pain intensity profile followed the same pattern for all patients. Pain intensity peaked 2 h after extractions (mean VASPI 27.3, SD 20.8; median 23.0) when moderate pain intensity (VASPI ≥ 40) was registered for 16 (28%) of 57 cases. After that, there was a rapid decrease in pain intensity notable already at 4 h after extractions. There were no statistically significant differences in any VASPI measurements between the first and second extractions, sexes, or different age groups. CONCLUSIONS The majority of the participants who undergo uncomplicated bilateral extraction of maxillary premolars experience mild to moderate levels of postoperative pain during a short period of time, with no differences between the first and second extractions. Bilateral tooth extractions is a suitable model for further studies on pain management.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIMS Plasma cystatin C (pCysC) may be superior to serum creatinine (sCr) as a surrogate of GFR. However, the performance of pCysC for diagnosing acute kidney injury (AKI) after cisplatin-based chemotherapy is potentially affected by accompanying corticosteroid anti-emetic therapy and hydration. METHODS In a prospective observational study pCysC, sCr, urinary kidney injury molecule-1 (KIM-1), and urinary clusterin were measured over 2 weeks in 27 patients given first-cycle chemotherapy. The same variables were measured over 2 weeks in Sprague-Dawley rats given a single intraperitoneal injection of dexamethasone, cisplatin, or both, and in controls. RESULTS In patients, pCysC increases were greater than sCr 41% vs. 16%, mean paired difference 25% (95% CI: 16-34%)], relative increases were ≥ 50% in 9 patients (35%) for pCysC compared with 2 (8%) for sCr (p = 0.04) and increases in sCr were accompanied by increased KIM-1 and clusterin excretion, but increases in pCysC alone were not. In rats, dexamethasone administration produced dose-dependent increases in pCysC (and augmented cisplatin-induced increases in pCysC), but did not augment histological injury, increases in sCr, or KIM-1 and clusterin excretion. CONCLUSIONS In the presence of dexamethasone, elevation of pCysC does not reliably diagnose AKI after cisplatin-based chemotherapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Childhood adversity predicts adolescent suicidal ideation but there are few studies examining whether the risk of childhood adversity extends to suicidal ideation in midlife. We hypothesized that childhood adversity predicts midlife suicidal ideation and this is partially mediated by adolescent internalizing disorders, externalizing disorders and adult exposure to life events and interpersonal difficulties. METHOD At 45 years, 9377 women and men from the UK 1958 British Birth Cohort Study participated in a clinical survey. Childhood adversity was prospectively assessed at the ages of 7, 11 and 16 years. Suicidal ideation at midlife was assessed by the depressive ideas subscale of the Revised Clinical Interview Schedule. Internalizing and externalizing disorders were measured by the Rutter scales at 16 years. Life events, periods of unemployment, partnership separations and alcohol dependence were measured through adulthood. RESULTS Illness in the household, paternal absence, institutional care, parental divorce and retrospective reports of parental physical and sexual abuse predicted suicidal ideation at 45 years. Three or more childhood adversities were associated with suicidal ideation at 45 years [odds ratio (OR) 4.31, 95% confidence interval (CI) 2.67-6.94]. Psychological distress at 16 years partially mediated the associations of physical abuse (OR 3.41, 95% CI 2.29-5.75), sexual abuse (OR 4.99, 95% CI 2.90-11.16) with suicidal ideation. Adult life events partially mediated the association of parental divorce (OR 6.34, 95% CI -7.16 to 36.75) and physical (OR 9.59, 95% CI 4.97-27.88) and sexual abuse (OR 6.59, 95% CI 2.40-38.36) with suicidal ideation at 45 years. CONCLUSIONS Adversity in childhood predicts suicidal ideation in midlife, partially mediated by adolescent internalizing and externalizing disorders, adult life events and interpersonal difficulties. Understanding the pathways from adversity to suicidal ideation can inform suicide prevention and the targeting of preventive interventions.

Abstract
The present approach at our institution for the treatment of patients with colorectal (CRC) cancer and with liver metastases planned for metastasectomy is the neoadjuvant administration of Bevacizumab with Irinotecan based therapy. Metabolic imaging of tumor viability with 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography (PET), and simultaneous anatomic localization provided by low-dose non-enhanced computed tomography (CT), can be obtained in a combined modality FDG-PET/CT scan. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the possible contribution of FDG-PET/CT as a surrogate marker to evaluate treatment response of liver metastases in vivo. This is a retrospective evaluation of 18F-FDG PET and CT findings in the first seven consecutive patients. FDG-PET/CT scans were performed before the start of the neoadjuvant and after four cycles of therapy, just prior to surgery. Results were compared to concurrent contrast-enhanced CT, when required, and pathology. Response to treatment was determined according to RECIST size criteria obtained from data from thin (3–5mm) slice CT, and changes in uptake of 18F-FDG uptake on PET. A total of 20 liver lesions were evaluated in seven patients. Overall, 6/7 patients had favorable response to treatment, and only one had progression of disease. One patient was found to be inoperable at surgery. Biopsy was obtained in 1/4 lesions in this patient, while pathology was unable for the remaining three lesions. As such, pathologic validation of findings was available for 17/20 lesions. Complete response (CR) was evident on FDG-PET in 10/17 (58%) lesions, whereas only 4/17(23%) were deemed CR by CT. Similarly, only 1/17 (6%) lesion appeared stable by FDG-PET criteria, whereas three (18%) were termed stable disease (SD) according to size on CT. FDG-PET findings correlated better than CT with pathology, and were more indicative of pathology. Overall PET/CT correctly predicted necrosis at pathology in 70% vs. 35% by CT. Our results suggest that 18F-FDG PET may be instrumental for predicting the pathologic response to Bevacizumab based therapy.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE As prostate-specific antigen (psa) makes prostate cancer (pca) screening more accessible, more men are being identified with conditions that indicate high risk for developing pca, such as elevated psa and high-grade intraepithelial neoplasia (hgpin). In the present study, we assessed psychological well-being and risk perception in individuals with those high-risk conditions. METHODS A questionnaire consisting of a psychological symptom survey, a trait risk-aversion survey, and a cancer-specific risk perception survey was administered to 168 patients with early-stage localized pca and 69 patients at high risk for pca (n = 16 hgpin, n = 53 psa > 4 ng/mL). Analysis of variance was used to examine differences in psychological well-being and appraisal of risk between the groups. RESULTS Compared with the pca group, the high-risk group perceived their risk of dying from something other than pca to be significantly lower (p = 0.007). However, pca patients reported significantly more clinically important psychological symptoms. CONCLUSIONS The identification of prostate conditions that predict progression to cancer might not result in the psychological symptoms commonly experienced by pca patients, but does appear to be related to a distorted perception of the disease's mortal risk. Patients with pca experience reduced psychological well-being, but better understand the risks of pca recurrence and death. Education on the risks and outcomes of pca can help at-risk men to view health assessments with reduced worry.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Dental care for elderly nursing home residents is traditionally provided at fixed dental clinics, but domiciliary dental care is an emerging alternative. Longer life expectancy accompanied with increased morbidity, and hospitalisation or dependence on the care of others will contribute to a risk for rapid deterioration of oral health so alternative methods for delivering oral health care to vulnerable individuals for whom access to fixed dental clinics is an obstacle should be considered. The aim was to analyse health economic consequences of domiciliary dental care for elderly nursing home residents in Sweden, compared to dentistry at a fixed clinic. METHODS A review of relevant literature was undertaken complemented by interviews with nursing home staff, officials at county councils, and academic experts in geriatric dentistry. Domiciliary dental care and fixed clinic care were compared in cost analyses and cost-effectiveness analyses. RESULTS The mean societal cost of domiciliary dental care for elderly nursing home residents was lower than dental care at a fixed clinic, and it was also considered cost-effective. Lower cost of dental care at a fixed dental clinic was only achieved in a scenario where dental care could not be completed in a domiciliary setting. CONCLUSIONS Domiciliary dental care for elderly nursing home residents has a lower societal cost and is cost-effective compared to dental care at fixed clinics. To meet current and predicted need for oral health care in the ageing population alternative methods to deliver dental care should be available.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction: Access to nuclear medicine department and sentinel node imaging remain an issue in number of hospitals. Preoperative Scintigrams are performed to confirm uptake of radioactivity and localisation of nodes in centres where facilities are available. Sentinella® (Oncovision, Valencia, Spain) is a recently introduced portable imaging gamma camera used intraoperatively to produce real time visual localisation of SLNs. Sentinella® was tested in a controlled laboratory environment and we report the first use of this technique in breast cancer patients from UK.
Methods: In the laboratory setting our aim was to compare the sensitivity and spatial resolution of the Sentinella® and a conventional gamma camera (cGC) used for sentinel node imaging by comparing it with the performance of a GE multi-purpose rectangular (MPR) conventional single head gamma camera normally used for sentinel node imaging. A simulator containing seeds 10kBq, 100kBq, 500kBq of radiocolloid Tc, mimicking SLN, were used. Seeds were placed at several depths in the axilla, at 3cm, 5cm and 8cm from the skin. Sentinella was placed first at 10cm and then 1cm away from the axilla and images were recorded at 1min and at 2.5min for every position. The cGC was placed 20 cm away from the simulator.
Results: 68 Sentinella® images and 34 cGC images obtained from the simulated axilla. Sentinella® resolution is comparable with the cGC for objects close to the camera i.e. ∼ 5 cm, but reduces rapidly as it's moved away from the camera. For distances up to about 7 cm the Sentinella® with the blue collimator is more sensitive than the cGC. Sentinella detects high radioactivity (500 kBq) faster than cGC (1 vs 2.5min). In cases of low radioactivity (10kBq) Sentinella® was equally accurate and faster than cGC, when placed close to the skin. Identification of different number of beads with varying radioactivity was similar in Sentinella and cGC. Sentinella scans of the axilla were obtained in 85 patients undergoing SLNB. All patients had a preoperative lymphoscintigram. Serial Sentinella scans were obtained after removal of every hot node. Sentinella scans correlated with all the lymphoscintigrams in the 85 cases studied. Serial decay in activity was seen with removal of every hot node. Extra nodes were picked up in 6/85 cases after the axilla was found silent using hand held gamma probe. In 2/85 cases extra nodes found had cancer that led to axillary clearance. Sentinella scans were extremely useful in differentiating between a hot sentinel node and signal from injection site in upper outer quadrants of small sized breasts.
Conclusion: Sentinella is accurate and fast in detecting radioactivity in the axilla. The anatomical shape of its collimator allows the operator to place it close to the axilla thus increasing sensitivity in cases of low radioactivity. Our independent tests and initial patient data confirm the excellent sensitivity and specificity. It's major advantage is that it can be used by surgeons to scan for residual nodes before completion of the procedure. It can resolve the problem of centres that do not have nuclear medicine departments. This portable gamma camera can definitely replace the use of conventional lymphoscintigrams saving time and money both for patients and the Hospital.

Abstract
This systematic review evaluates the diagnostic accuracy of radiographic methods employed to indicate presence/absence and changes over time of periapical bone lesions. Also investigated were the leads radiographic images may give about the nature of the process and the condition of the pulp in nonendodontically treated teeth. Electronic literature search included the databases PubMed, Embase and CENTRAL from January 1950 to June 2011. All languages were accepted provided there was an abstract in English. The MeSH terms were 'Cone beam computed tomography (CBCT)', 'Radiography, panoramic', 'Periapical diseases', 'Dental pulp diseases', 'Sensitivity and specificity', 'receiver operating characteristics (ROC) curve', 'Cadaver', 'Endodontics' and 'Radiography dental'. Two reviewers independently assessed abstracts and full text articles. An article was read in full text if at least one of the two reviewers considered an abstract to be potentially relevant. Altogether, 181 articles were read in full text. The GRADE approach was used to assess the quality of evidence of each radiographic method based on studies of high or moderate quality. Twenty-six studies fulfilled criteria set for inclusion. None was of high quality; 11 were of moderate quality. There is insufficient evidence that the digital intraoral radiographic technique is diagnostically as accurate as the conventional film technique. The same applies to CBCT. No conclusions can be drawn regarding the accuracy of radiological examination in identifying various forms of periapical bone tissue changes or about the pulpal condition.
