Abstract
BACKGROUND Sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitors reduce progression of chronic kidney disease and the risk of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in a wide range of patients. However, their effects on kidney disease progression in some patients with chronic kidney disease are unclear because few clinical kidney outcomes occurred among such patients in the completed trials. In particular, some guidelines stratify their level of recommendation about who should be treated with SGLT2 inhibitors based on diabetes status and albuminuria. We aimed to assess the effects of empagliflozin on progression of chronic kidney disease both overall and among specific types of participants in the EMPA-KIDNEY trial. METHODS EMPA-KIDNEY, a randomised, controlled, phase 3 trial, was conducted at 241 centres in eight countries (Canada, China, Germany, Italy, Japan, Malaysia, the UK, and the USA), and included individuals aged 18 years or older with an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) of 20 to less than 45 mL/min per 1·73 m2, or with an eGFR of 45 to less than 90 mL/min per 1·73 m2 with a urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (uACR) of 200 mg/g or higher. We explored the effects of 10 mg oral empagliflozin once daily versus placebo on the annualised rate of change in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR slope), a tertiary outcome. We studied the acute slope (from randomisation to 2 months) and chronic slope (from 2 months onwards) separately, using shared parameter models to estimate the latter. Analyses were done in all randomly assigned participants by intention to treat. EMPA-KIDNEY is registered at ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT03594110. FINDINGS Between May 15, 2019, and April 16, 2021, 6609 participants were randomly assigned and then followed up for a median of 2·0 years (IQR 1·5-2·4). Prespecified subgroups of eGFR included 2282 (34·5%) participants with an eGFR of less than 30 mL/min per 1·73 m2, 2928 (44·3%) with an eGFR of 30 to less than 45 mL/min per 1·73 m2, and 1399 (21·2%) with an eGFR 45 mL/min per 1·73 m2 or higher. Prespecified subgroups of uACR included 1328 (20·1%) with a uACR of less than 30 mg/g, 1864 (28·2%) with a uACR of 30 to 300 mg/g, and 3417 (51·7%) with a uACR of more than 300 mg/g. Overall, allocation to empagliflozin caused an acute 2·12 mL/min per 1·73 m2 (95% CI 1·83-2·41) reduction in eGFR, equivalent to a 6% (5-6) dip in the first 2 months. After this, it halved the chronic slope from -2·75 to -1·37 mL/min per 1·73 m2 per year (relative difference 50%, 95% CI 42-58). The absolute and relative benefits of empagliflozin on the magnitude of the chronic slope varied significantly depending on diabetes status and baseline levels of eGFR and uACR. In particular, the absolute difference in chronic slopes was lower in patients with lower baseline uACR, but because this group progressed more slowly than those with higher uACR, this translated to a larger relative difference in chronic slopes in this group (86% [36-136] reduction in the chronic slope among those with baseline uACR <30 mg/g compared with a 29% [19-38] reduction for those with baseline uACR ≥2000 mg/g; ptrend<0·0001). INTERPRETATION Empagliflozin slowed the rate of progression of chronic kidney disease among all types of participant in the EMPA-KIDNEY trial, including those with little albuminuria. Albuminuria alone should not be used to determine whether to treat with an SGLT2 inhibitor. FUNDING Boehringer Ingelheim and Eli Lilly.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The EMPA-KIDNEY trial showed that empagliflozin reduced the risk of the primary composite outcome of kidney disease progression or cardiovascular death in patients with chronic kidney disease mainly through slowing progression. We aimed to assess how effects of empagliflozin might differ by primary kidney disease across its broad population. METHODS EMPA-KIDNEY, a randomised, controlled, phase 3 trial, was conducted at 241 centres in eight countries (Canada, China, Germany, Italy, Japan, Malaysia, the UK, and the USA). Patients were eligible if their estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was 20 to less than 45 mL/min per 1·73 m2, or 45 to less than 90 mL/min per 1·73 m2 with a urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (uACR) of 200 mg/g or higher at screening. They were randomly assigned (1:1) to 10 mg oral empagliflozin once daily or matching placebo. Effects on kidney disease progression (defined as a sustained ≥40% eGFR decline from randomisation, end-stage kidney disease, a sustained eGFR below 10 mL/min per 1·73 m2, or death from kidney failure) were assessed using prespecified Cox models, and eGFR slope analyses used shared parameter models. Subgroup comparisons were performed by including relevant interaction terms in models. EMPA-KIDNEY is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT03594110. FINDINGS Between May 15, 2019, and April 16, 2021, 6609 participants were randomly assigned and followed up for a median of 2·0 years (IQR 1·5-2·4). Prespecified subgroupings by primary kidney disease included 2057 (31·1%) participants with diabetic kidney disease, 1669 (25·3%) with glomerular disease, 1445 (21·9%) with hypertensive or renovascular disease, and 1438 (21·8%) with other or unknown causes. Kidney disease progression occurred in 384 (11·6%) of 3304 patients in the empagliflozin group and 504 (15·2%) of 3305 patients in the placebo group (hazard ratio 0·71 [95% CI 0·62-0·81]), with no evidence that the relative effect size varied significantly by primary kidney disease (pheterogeneity=0·62). The between-group difference in chronic eGFR slopes (ie, from 2 months to final follow-up) was 1·37 mL/min per 1·73 m2 per year (95% CI 1·16-1·59), representing a 50% (42-58) reduction in the rate of chronic eGFR decline. This relative effect of empagliflozin on chronic eGFR slope was similar in analyses by different primary kidney diseases, including in explorations by type of glomerular disease and diabetes (p values for heterogeneity all >0·1). INTERPRETATION In a broad range of patients with chronic kidney disease at risk of progression, including a wide range of non-diabetic causes of chronic kidney disease, empagliflozin reduced risk of kidney disease progression. Relative effect sizes were broadly similar irrespective of the cause of primary kidney disease, suggesting that SGLT2 inhibitors should be part of a standard of care to minimise risk of kidney failure in chronic kidney disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Women over 50 years are one of the fastest-growing employment groups. Menopausal symptoms can adversely impact quality of life, work performance and attendance; however, few studies look at the impact of individual menopausal symptoms on work and career development. AIMS To measure the prevalence of menopausal symptoms in employees in a healthcare setting, to assess the impact of individual symptoms on work, attendance and career development and to explore perceptions about workplace supports. METHODS In this cross-sectional study of Irish hospital workers, menopausal employees were asked about the frequency of 10 menopausal symptoms and the extent to which each symptom impacted them at work. Impacts on performance, attendance and career development were assessed, along with the benefits of workplace support. RESULTS Responses from 407 women showed that the most common menopausal symptoms affecting employees greater than 50% of the time while at work were fatigue (54%), difficulty sleeping (47%), poor concentration (44%) and poor memory (40%). Work performance was impacted for 65% of respondents and 18% had taken sick leave. There was a significant association between symptom severity at work and reduced work performance, career development decisions and attendance. Manager awareness about menopause (29%) and flexible working times (29%) were selected as the most important workplace supports. CONCLUSIONS Female employees are negatively impacted by menopausal symptoms while at work, particularly by psychological and neurocognitive symptoms which were associated with reduced work performance, attendance and career decisions. Manager awareness and flexible schedules were considered the most beneficial workplace supports.

Abstract
Introduction
Facilitating radiological imaging for patients is an essential task for all Foundation Year (FY) doctors. Achieving competence in this task can expedite patient management. We evaluated the confidence and skills of FYs in facilitating radiological imaging before and after introduction of formal training.
Method
Surgical FYs working at a teaching hospital were surveyed to evaluate their baseline level of competence in booking and discussing imaging with radiology colleagues. Parameters were measured on a Likert scale, including confidence in discussing requests and satisfaction of their own performance following discussions. Eight radiology consultants were surveyed to evaluate their opinions on FYs’ communication and established areas for improvement. A teaching session was then delivered to improve communication skills. Furthermore, PACCSS poster was introduced to remind the FYs of the salient information required when discussing imaging.
Results
One month after the intervention, the participants were re-surveyed. This demonstrated a statistically significant improvement in self-reported confidence from 5.3/10 to 7.3/10 (p < 0.001), and in satisfaction of own performance from 5.4/10 to 7.0/10 (p < 0.001).
Conclusions
We identified deficiencies in surgical FY doctors’ confidence and skills in facilitating radiological imaging. There was a demonstrable benefit with focused training. Inter-specialty communication should be introduced into under- and post-graduate educational curriculum.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: Response to neoadjuvant therapy is a predictor of progression-free and overall survival in HER2+. To decrease treatment associated toxicities in patients with HER2+ breast cancers we utilized a non-anthracycline regimen with pertuzumab (pert), trastuzumab (trast), and nab-paclitaxel (nab). Pre- neoadjuvant therapy biopsies were procured to evaluated possible biological predictors of pathologic complete response (pCR).
Methods: Women with locally advanced HER2 positive breast cancers were recruited from our breast cancer clinics. After obtaining informed consent for this IRB-approved trial, patients were treated with 6 cycles of pertuzumab (day 1 every 21 days [d]), and weekly trastuzumab 2 mg/kg with and nab-paclitaxel 100 mg/m2. Formalin fixed paraffin embedded (FFPE) or frozen biopsies pre-NT and post-NT were collected, along with blood samples at pre-treatment, and at the end of study for correlative analysis.
Results: Accrual is complete, with 42 of the 45 HER2+ patients assessed for pCR rate (3 too early to evaluate). The median age was 54 yrs (range 31-77 years). 12 patients were stage 3, 26 stage 2, and 1 stage 1 patient. The pCR rate was 64.2% (27/42), with 73.7% (14/19) in ER/PR negative patients and 56.5% (13/23) in ER/PR positive patients. The initial primary tumor size was similar for in those who achieved pCR and non-pCR patients (mean 4.1 cm vs 3.2 cm, respectively). Most patients required dose modifications. Grade 3 AEs reported included 6 patients with hypertension, 3 patients with hematological AEs, 3 patients with elevated LFTs, and 2 patients with diarrhea.
Conclusions: This anthracycline-free regimen in HER2+ BC can achieve promising pCR response rates, with toxicities well-managed with dose modifications. Results of correlative analysis will be presented.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: Response to neoadjuvant therapy (NT) predicts progression-free and overall survival in triple negative breast cancer (TNBC). Carboplatin has shown efficacy in patients with TNBC. The current phase II prospective neoadjuvant trial was designed to decrease toxicities and improve efficacy.
Methods: Patients with TNBC received carboplatin (carb) and nab-paclitaxel (nab). Pre-NT biopsies were procured to evaluate for biological predictors of pathological complete response (pCR). Newly diagnosed stage II-III patients with TNBC were treated with 4 cycles of carb (AUC 6, day 1 of 28 day cycle) and weekly nab 100 mg/m2 x 16. Targeted accrual goal is 70. RNA extracted from formalin fixed paraffin embedded (FFPE) biopsies pre-NT was tested for MammaPrint/BluePrint and custom Agilent full genome microarrays for gene expression (GE, by Agendia Inc). The raw gMeanSignal was log2 transformed and normalized to the 75thpercentile for GE analysis. Association between MammaPrint/ BluePrint results and pCR was tested by Fisher exact test. The linear model from R limma package was applied. Ingenuity Pathway Analysis (IPA) was applied to assess functional pathways associated with pCR. Cellular distribution by CIBERSORT analysis was carried out to estimate the abundance of 22 different cell types in each patient sample, and test whether the distribution of cell types is different between pCR and non-responders.
Results: A total of 64 patients were enrolled. Two patients were deemed ineligible (Her2+), and three were too early, resulting in 59 patients evaluable for pathological response. The pCR rate was 47% (RCB0, 28/59). Eight patients had RCB I. RCB0 plus RCBI reached 61%. Sufficient quality RNA and DNA were available from the first 43 of 55 pts with TNBC. 44/59 (75%) required dose modifications (mostly hematologic), 5 patients had grade 3 peripheral neuropathy (PN), 3 had grade 2 PN, and 3 patients had grade 2 LFTs. In the 53 pts with GE assessment, pCR was inversely associated with luminal BluePrint type (p=0.04). With fold change >1.5 and p-value < 0.05, 36 genes were differentially expressed (DE) in TNBC. CIBERSORT analysis suggested that T-cell regulatory cells (TREGS) were associated with pCR in TNBC, and 5 cell types (plasma cells, TREGS, macrophage, dendritic cells and neutrophils) presented differently between all pCR and non-pCRs with P-value <0.05. TDP analysis to assess correlation with pCR is ongoing.
Conclusions: The combination of carboplatin and nab-paclitaxel given in the neoadjuvant setting reached a promising pCR rate of 47%. The MammaPrint non-luminal BluePrint subtype was predictive of pCR in TNBC. Preliminary analysis suggested that a 36-gene signature for TNBC was associated with pCR. CIBERSORT analysis revealed 5 cell types with different abundance between the pCR and non-responders, suggesting the need to target the tumor microenvironment.

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
Abstract
Background: Pathologic complete response (pCR) to HER2-targeting neoadjuvant therapy (NT) predicts for improved survival (Cortazar et al, Lancet, 2014). The addition of pertuzumab to trastuzumab and docetaxel increased pCR rates, and, as first line treatment for MBC led to longer overall survival ([OS] Swain et al, NEJM 2015). Avoidance of anthracyclines in the adjuvant setting for HER2+ BC reduced the risk of secondary hematologic malignancies without a detriment to OS (Slamon et al, NEJM, 20111). Finally, nab-paclitaxel (nab) might provide an advantage over other taxanes via decreased use of steroids and may lead to increased response rates (RR). We designed a study of pertuzumab (pert), trastuzumab (trast), and nab, testing the feasibility and efficacy of this regimen in the LABC and metastatic breast cancer settings.
Materials and Methods: Pts with Stages II-III LABC received six cycles of NT with pert (day 1 q 21 days), trast, and nab 100 mg/m2 (both given IV, weekly). Pts with untreated MBC received the same regimen until progression, toxicities, or patient or physician preference led to stopping therapy. Primary endpoints included pCR (LABC) and RR and progression-free survival (PFS) in MBC. Forty pts with LABC and 25 pts with MBC were to be accrued. The study was designed to test whether the pCR rate of Neosphere (Gianni et al, Lancet Oncol, 2012, > 45.8%) and the PFS rate of CLEOPATRA (median of > 18.5 months) can be matched or exceeded. Procurement of serial samples for assessment of tumor gene expression, circulating tumor cells, miRNA, and serum DNA profiling for exploratory biomarker analysis was carried out.
Results:Twenty-two of 28 already enrolled pts with LABC (clinical stage II:15, stage III: 7) completed NT. The median age was 53 (34-77). The pCR rate was 86% (6/7) for hormone receptor negative (HR-) and 40% (6/15) for HR+ pts, with an overall pCR of 55%. Three pts without pCR following NT had residual BC with a HER2 negative phenotype. Eighteen of 22 pts required nab dose modifications. The most frequent toxicities following NT included elevated liver function tests:27%, peripheral neuropathy:23%, hematological toxicities:17%, diarrhea:18%, infusion reactions:18%. In the MBC cohort there were 13 of 16 enrolled pts with > 2 months of follow-up. The median age was 47 (31-65), 62% had HR+ disease. A CR rate of 4/13 (31%) and confirmed RR of 77% were observed. The median number of cycles with pert, trast, nab was 9 (3+ to 41); 11 of 13 pts required dose modifications or delays (3 of the delays were due to primary breast surgery performed upon response to treatment). At a median follow-up of 19 months, PFS and OS estimates are 63% (95% CI 0.09-0.93), and 89% (95% CI 0.61-1.0).
Conclusion: The non-anthracycline-containing regimen of pertuzumab, trastuzumab, and nab-paclitaxel induced a high pCR rate in HER2+ BC. PFS is encouraging in MBC. Outcome of the fully accrued cohorts inclusive of residual cancer burden scores in the LABC cohort, and correlative data with exploratory biomarker analysis will be presented.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Indigenous Australians have a higher cancer incidence, worse mortality and are less likely to receive optimal cancer treatment compared with non-Indigenous Australians. Culturally appropriate supportive care helps ensure that Indigenous patients engage in and receive optimal care. However, many existing supportive care needs tools lack cultural relevance for Indigenous people, and their feasibility with Indigenous people has not been demonstrated. The Supportive Care Needs Assessment Tool for Indigenous People (SCNAT-IP) assesses the unmet supportive care needs of Indigenous cancer patients. PURPOSE This descriptive study evaluates the clinical implementation of the SCNAT-IP in routine care. METHODS Two large tertiary cancer treatment centres and two regional oncology clinics participated. Participants included 10 clinical staff and 36 adult Indigenous cancer patients (mean age 54 years). Patients and clinicians completed brief, purpose-designed questionnaires and interviews. RESULTS Patients reported high ratings (means >8/10) for acceptability, helpfulness and timing items. The majority (≥80%) of staff agreed that the SCNAT-IP was useful to clinical practice, should be used in routine care and was acceptable to their patients. CONCLUSIONS The study provides empirical support for the feasibility and acceptability of the SCNAT-IP in routine cancer care with Indigenous Australians. Routine screening with the SCNAT-IP has the potential to improve cancer care for Indigenous people with cancer.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Children with Developmental Co-ordination Disorder (DCD) experience poor motor and psychosocial outcomes. Interventions are often limited within the healthcare system, and little is known about how technology might be used within schools or homes to promote the motor skills and/or psychosocial development of these children. This study aimed to evaluate whether short, regular school-based sessions of movement experience using a commercially available home video game console (Nintendo's Wii Fit) would lead to benefits in both motor and psychosocial domains in children with DCD. METHODS A randomized crossover controlled trial of children with movement difficulties/DCD was conducted. Children were randomly assigned to an intervention (n = 10) or comparison (n = 8) group. The intervention group spent 10 min thrice weekly for 1 month using Wii Fit during the lunch break, while the comparison group took part in their regular Jump Ahead programme. Pre- and post-intervention assessments considered motor proficiency, self-perceived ability and satisfaction and parental assessment of emotional and behavioural problems. RESULTS Significant gains were seen in motor proficiency, the child's perception of his/her motor ability and reported emotional well-being for many, but not all children. CONCLUSIONS This study provides preliminary evidence to support the use of the Wii Fit within therapeutic programmes for children with movement difficulties. This simple, popular intervention represents a plausible method to support children's motor and psychosocial development. It is not possible from our data to say which children are most likely to benefit from such a programme and particularly what the dose and duration should be. Further research is required to inform across these and other questions regarding the implementation of virtual reality technologies in therapeutic services for children with movement difficulties.

Abstract
While largely preventable, fire and hot water-related injuries are common in the United States. Measures recommended to reduce these injuries are smoke alarms (SAs) and lowered hot water temperatures. This study aims to: (i) describe the prevalence of working SAs and safe water temperatures among low-income, urban communities and (ii) explore the relationship between these behaviors and individuals' knowledge and beliefs about them. In this cross-sectional study, the Health Belief Model was used as a guide for understanding the safety behaviors. A total of 603 households had their SAs and hot tap water temperatures tested and were surveyed about their knowledge and beliefs related to these safety behaviors. We found that 40% of households had working SAs on every level and 57% had safe hot water temperatures. Perceived severity and self-efficacy were significantly associated with SA coverage, whereas perceived susceptibility and beliefs about benefits were significantly associated with safe hot water temperatures. This study demonstrates the need to increase the number of homes with working SAs and safe hot water temperatures. Messages focused on a safe home environment could communicate the ease and harm reduction features of SAs and benefits and risk reduction features of safe hot water temperatures.

Abstract
This study aimed to compare an in-class Seniors on the MOVE (Mature Operators Vehicular Education) interactive multi-session driving curriculum with a self-guided MOVE curriculum for older adults. Using a two group randomized design, we sought to determine if there are between-group differences in older drivers' knowledge and safety behaviors among participants. Forty-four participants with an average age of 79 years (SD=7.1) were randomly assigned to the original MOVE program (SOM-A) or a lower resource (SOM-B) self-guided intervention. SOM-A is a four session program designed to improve older drivers safety knowledge and better understand skills for safer driving. SOM-B is a self-guided program with one required in-class session and one optional session. Subsequent to completion of both curricula, participants were offered CarFit, a comprehensive check of how well a senior driver and their vehicle work together. Baseline, post-intervention and 6-month follow up questionnaires were completed by participants. We found significant differences (p=.01) in the mean driving safety knowledge scores when comparing participants in SOM-A (3.7, SD 2.0) to those in SOM-B (0.87, SD 2.6). With regard to behavioral outcomes, we focused on always wearing a seatbelt, talking with a health care provider about driving ability, and sitting 10-12 inches from the steering wheel. The vast majority of participants reported always wearing their seat belts (SOM-A 100%, SOM-B 92%, p=1.0), and very few reported talking with their doctors (SOM-A Baseline--0%, Follow up 1--0%, p=n/a). Mean behavior change scores for participants sitting 10-12 inches from the steering wheel were significantly more likely among SOM-A (mean=.65, SD=.5) participants than those in SOM-B (mean=.29, SD=.5, p=.01) at first follow-up. Taken together, these findings suggest that the more intensive program is more effective and that driving safety programs focused on behaviors to self evaluate driving abilities continue to be needed to help older drivers remain safer on the road as they age. The involvement of health care providers in such efforts may be an untapped potential.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study set out to determine if cetuximab treatment increases the risk of wound healing complications when combined with radiation therapy. METHOD We performed a retrospective chart review of head and neck cancer patients who received salvage neck dissections between 1999 and 2007, at two academic tertiary care centres. Complications from wound healing were compared between radiation and combined therapy groups. RESULTS A total of 35 patients received radiation (n=20) or combined radiation and cetuximab therapy (n=15) prior to neck dissection. The treatment groups were similar in regard to demographic and primary tumour-related characteristics. The time between treatment and salvage neck dissection did not differ between the radiation (3.9 months) and combination treatment (3.0 months) groups (p=0.15). Wound healing complications occurred in 13% (2/15) of the patients treated with radiation and cetuximab and there were no complications in patients who received radiation alone (p=0.20). CONCLUSION Cetuximab did not significantly increase the risk of post-surgical wound complications, although a higher absolute number of wound complications was observed in the group treated with cetuximab and radiation therapy, compared with the group treated with radiation alone. CONFLICT OF INTEREST This work was supported by a grant from the National Institute of Health (2T32 CA091078-06).

Abstract
AIMS To compare agreement level and identify reasons for disagreement between grading of mydriatic digital photographs in a diabetic retinopathy screening service and hospital eye service biomicroscopy grading. METHODS Structured examination findings leading to automatically calculated National Screening Committee grades recorded on an electronic medical record system in the hospital eye service at the first clinic visit after diabetic retinopathy screening service referral between April 2006 and November 2007 were retrospectively compared with the grade at the screening visit that prompted referral. In cases of disagreement, screening images were reviewed. RESULTS Data on 452 eyes (226 patients) were analysed. For retinopathy, hospital eye service slit-lamp biomicroscopy grades were: R0 (no diabetic retinopathy) in 63 eyes; R1 (background retinopathy) in 251 eyes; R2 (pre-proliferative) in 129 eyes and R3 (proliferative) in nine eyes. Diabetic retinopathy screening service grades were in agreement in 350 eyes (77.4%), showed a lower grade in 59 eyes and a higher grade in 43. Agreement was moderate (κ=0.60). The most common reason for disagreement was overgrading of R1 by clinicians. Hospital eye service biomicroscopy maculopathy grades were: M0 (no maculopathy) in 366 eyes and M1 (maculopathy) in 86 eyes. Diabetic retinopathy screening service grades were in agreement in 327 eyes (72.3%), showed a lower grading in five eyes and a higher grade in 120 eyes. Agreement was moderate (κ=0.41). The commonest cause for disagreement was clinicians failing to identify fine macular exudates. CONCLUSIONS This study of routine clinical services demonstrates moderate agreement between non-medical grading of mydriatic digital retinal photography images and hospital slit-lamp biomicroscopy grading of patients referred with diabetic retinopathy. The majority of errors in grading were attributable to errors by hospital doctors, usually in the direction of under-grading which could be a potential source of clinical risk if treatment is delayed.

Abstract
The emergence of high bandwidth public wireless networks and miniaturized personal mobile devices give rise to new mobile healthcare services. To this end, the MobiHealth system provides highly customizable vital signs tele-monitoring and tele-treatment system based on a body area network (BAN) and a mobile health care (m-health) service platform utilizing next generation public wireless networks. The developed system allows the incorporation of diverse medical sensors via wireless connections, and the live transmission of the measured vital signs to healthcare providers as well as real-time feedback to the patient. Since 2002 the system has undergone substantial development in consecutive EU and national research projects. Diverse trials with different healthcare scenarios and patient groups in different European countries have been conducted in all projects. These have been performed to test the service and the network infrastructure including its suitability for m-health applications.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Emergency department (ED) attendances and subsequent hospital admissions are rising in the United Kingdom. The reasons for this are unclear but may relate to recent changes in primary care and public perception. The actions taken by patients or their relatives before emergency hospital admission, the reasons for these actions and their outcome were determined. METHODS Adult patients admitted to an inner city teaching hospital with a medical or surgical illness were interviewed using a semistructured questionnaire. Data were collected and analyzed regarding the actions taken before arrival at hospital, the reasons for taking these actions, their outcome and future intentions. 200 patients were interviewed. RESULTS Direct attendance at the ED was more common when help was sought by bystanders or persons known only slightly to the patient (p = 0.03). 57 patients (28.5%) attended the ED directly, 45 of whom dialled 999 for an emergency ambulance. Most patients who attended the ED directly did so as a result of the perceived severity or urgency of their condition and there was incomplete awareness of the out-of-hours GP service. CONCLUSION The majority of adult patients who are admitted to hospital with an acute illness seek professional help from primary care in the first instance. Those who attend the ED generally perceive their problem as more urgent or severe, or have an ambulance called on their behalf. The shift towards ED care appears partly driven by changes in general practice and unfamiliarity with the new arrangements for out-of-hours primary care provision.

Abstract
516 Background: Evidence suggests that docetaxel is more effective than paclitaxel, and paclitaxel is more effective when given weekly than every 3 weeks in metastatic breast cancer (BC). Methods: Eligibility included axillary lymph node positive or high-risk (tumor at least 2 cm) node-negative BC. All patients received 4 cycles of AC (doxorubicin 60 mg/m2 and cyclophosphamide 600 mg/m2) every 3 weeks, followed by either: (1) paclitaxel 175 mg/m2 every 3 weeks × 4 (P3), (2) paclitaxel 80 mg/m2 weekly × 12 (P1), (3) docetaxel 100 mg/m2 every 3 weeks × 4 (D3), or (4) docetaxel 35 mg/m2 weekly × 12 (D1). The primary comparisons included taxane (P vs. D) and schedule (every 3 weeks vs. weekly), and secondary comparisons included P3 vs. other arms. The trial had 86% power to detect a 17.5% decrease in disease-free survival (DFS) for either primary comparison, and 80% power to detect a 22% decrease for the secondary comparisons (2-sided nomimal 5% level tests corrected for multiple comparisons). Results: A total of 4,950 eligible patients were accrued. There was no difference in the primary comparisons afer 856 DFS events and 483 deaths after a median follow-up of 46.5 months at the 4th interim analysis ( www.sabcs.org , abstract 48). This is the final pre-specified analysis for the primary comparisons after 1,042 DFS events and 650 deaths (with 1,020 DFS events at this time, to be updated at the meeting). After a median followup of 60.2 months, there remains no significant difference in the hazard ratio (HR) for the taxane (1.02; p=0.73) or schedule (1.07; p=0.30) (as in the first analysis). In secondary comparisons of the standard arm (P3) with the other arms (HR > 1 favoring the experimental arms), the HRs were 1.30 (p = 0.003) for arm P1, 1.24 (p=0.02) for arm D3, and 1.09 (p=0.33) for arm D1. Analysis of interaction by hormone-receptor status will be presented. The incidence of worst grade toxicity (grade 3/4) was 24%/6% for arm P3, 24%/3% for arm P1, 21%/50% for arm D3, and 38%/6% for arm D1. Conclusions: There were no differences in DFS when comparing taxane or schedule overall. DFS was significantly improved in the weekly paclitaxel and every 3-week docetaxel arms compared with the every 3-week paclitaxel arm. [Table: see text]

Abstract
BACKGROUND Deliberate self-harm can be costly, in terms of treatment and subsequent suicide. Any intervention that reduces episodes of self-harm might therefore have a major impact on the costs incurred by service providers and the productivity losses due to illness or premature death. METHOD Four hundred and eighty patients with a history of recurrent deliberate self-harm were randomized to manual-assisted cognitive behaviour therapy (MACT) or treatment as usual. Economic data were collected from patients at baseline, 6 and 12 months, and these data were complete for 397 patients. Incremental cost-effectiveness was explored using the primary outcome measure, proportion of patients having a repeat episode of deliberate self-harm, and quality of life. The uncertainty surrounding costs and effects was represented using cost-effectiveness acceptability curves. RESULTS Differences in total cost per patient were statistically significant at 6 months in favour of MACT (pounds sterling -897, 95 % CI -1747 to -48, P=0.04), but these differences did not remain significant at 12 months (pounds sterling -838, 95% CI -2142 to 466, P=0.21). Nevertheless, exploration of the uncertainty surrounding these estimates suggests there is >90% probability that MACT is a more cost-effective strategy for reducing the recurrence of deliberate self-harm in this population over 1 year than treatment as usual. The results for quality of life were not conclusive. CONCLUSION Cost-effectiveness acceptability curves demonstrate that, based on the evidence currently available, to reject MACT on traditional grounds of statistical significance and to continue funding current practice has <10% chance of being the correct decision in terms of cost-effectiveness.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We carried out a large randomized trial of a brief form of cognitive therapy, manual-assisted cognitive behaviour therapy (MACT) versus treatment as usual (TAU) for deliberate self-harm. METHOD Patients presenting with recurrent deliberate self-harm in five centres were randomized to either MACT or (TAU) and followed up over 1 year. MACT patients received a booklet based on cognitive behaviour therapy (CBT) principles and were offered up to five plus two booster sessions of CBT from a therapist in the first 3 months of the study. Ratings of parasuicide risk, anxiety, depression, social functioning and global function, positive and negative thinking, and quality of life were measured at baseline and after 6 and 12 months. RESULTS Four hundred and eighty patients were randomized. Sixty per cent of the MACT group had both the booklet and CBT sessions. There were seven suicides, five in the TAU group. The main outcome measure, the proportion of those repeating deliberate self-harm in the 12 months of the study, showed no significant difference between those treated with MACT (39%) and treatment as usual (46%) (OR 0.78, 95% CI 0.53 to 1.14, P=0.20). CONCLUSION Brief cognitive behaviour therapy is of limited efficacy in reducing self-harm repetition, but the findings taken in conjunctin with the economic evaluation (Byford et al. 2003) indicate superiority of MACT over TAU in terms of cost and effectiveness combined.

Abstract
High-dose chemotherapy with autologous stem cell support (HDC-ASCS) can produce high complete remission rates in patients with metastatic breast cancer (MBC). However, the majority of those so treated will relapse within 3 years. The ability of such patients to tolerate further myelosuppressive chemotherapy may be limited and the best therapy is undefined. In this retrospective study we assessed the role of capecitabine as initial therapy after relapse. Ten patients (median age = 47 years; oestrogen receptor-positive, n = 4; visceral disease, n = 6; prior anthracycline, n = 8, prior taxanes, n = 10), whose disease progressed at a median of 246 days (range 69-480) after HDC-ASCS and who were treated with capecitabine (2500 mg/m2 per day for 2 weeks of a 3-week cycle) as initial therapy for relapse, were assessed retrospectively for response and toxicity. They received a median of eight cycles (range 4-24) of capecitabine. The toxicities encountered while receiving capecitabine were: hand-foot syndrome (grade 1, n = 3; grade 2, n = 4; grade 3, n = 1); diarrhoea (grade 1, n = 1; grade 2, n = 3); nausea (n = 2) and fatigue (n = 5). Haematological toxicity was seen in only one patient. No patient required hospitalization for toxicity. Three achieved a complete remission, four a partial remission and three disease stabilization. After a median follow-up of 183 days from commencing capecitabine (range 97-540), all patients were alive and five were in remission. Five progressed after remissions that lasted between 63 and 252 days. Oral capecitabine is an active and well-tolerated agent when used alone as first-line therapy in patients who have relapsed after HDC-ASCS for MBC.

Abstract
An insertion-sequence of prokaryotic origin was detected in a genomic clone obtained from a Phaseolus vulgaris bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) library. This BAC clone, characterized as part of a contig constructed near a virus resistance gene, exhibited restriction fragment length polymorphism with an overlapping clone of the contig. Restriction analysis of DNA obtained from individual colonies of the stock culture indicated the presence of a mixed population of wild-type and insertional mutants. Sequence analysis of both members of the population revealed the presence of IS 10R, an insertion-sequence from Escherichia coli. A BLAST search for IS 10-like sequences detected unexpected homologies with a large number of eukaryotic sequences from Homo sapiens, Arabidopsis thaliana, Drosophila melanogasterand Caenorhabditis elegans. Southern analysis of a random sample of BAC clones failed to detect IS 10 in the BAC DNA. However, prolonged sub-culturing of a set of 15 clones resulted in transposition into the BAC DNA. Eventually, all cultures acquired a 2.3-kb fragment that hybridized strongly with IS 10. Sequence analysis revealed the presence of a preferred site for transposition in the BAC vector. These results indicate that a large number, if not all, of the BAC libraries from different organisms are contaminated with IS 10R. The source of this element has been identified as the DH10B strain of E. coli used as the host for BAC libraries.

Abstract
Fatigue is a major complaint among cancer patients, yet it is unknown whether cancer-related fatigue experienced during the day relates to sleep/wake cycles or to the quality and quantity of sleep obtained at night. Although it is not well defined or well understood at present, cancer-related fatigue is generally regarded as a form of tiredness that does not improve following rest or sleep. Objectively recorded sleep and biological rhythms have not been well investigated in these patients, but it appears that most cancer patients may in fact not be getting a good night's sleep. Evidence is accumulating that sleep is often disturbed in cancer patients, probably owing to a variety of causes. We posit that some degree of cancer-related fatigue experienced during the day may relate to sleep/wake cycles or to the quality and quantity of sleep obtained at night. Different components or dimensions of fatigue (physical, attentional/cognitive, emotional/affective, etc.) are probably associated in some way with disrupted sleep and desynchronized sleep/wake rhythms. These associations may change in measurable ways prior to treatment, during treatment and after treatment completion. In cancer patients, as in other medically ill patients, sleep that is inadequate or unrefreshing may be important not only to the expression of fatigue, but to the patients' quality of life and their tolerance to treatment, and may influence the development of mood disorders and clinical depression. This review summarizes the state of the literature on fatigue, sleep and circadian rhythms.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION continuous wave Doppler (CWD) has good discriminatory power at the groin in the assessment of saphenous femoral junction (SFJ); however, it is not as accurate as duplex ultrasound scanning (DUS) in the popliteal fossa for assessment of saphenous popliteal junction (SPJ) in patients with primary short saphenous vein incompetence. AIM the aim of this study was to compare the findings of CWD with those of DUS at the SPJ and assess the role of popliteal vein incompetence in the accuracy of CWD. METHOD prospective study of consecutive patients presenting to a vein clinic requiring a duplex scan of their SPJ. Each patient was examined by one surgeon using CWD and by one radiologist using DUS. Each observer was unaware of the other's findings. Additional information on the competence of the popliteal vein on DUS was also recorded. RESULTS some 171 limbs in 128 patients with varicose veins were studied. One hundred and sixteen limbs had reflux at SPJ on CWD whilst 55 did not. Their mean age was 54 (range 18-85). Female to male ratio was 3:1. Spearman's rank correlation between CWD and DUS has 0.49 (p =0.0001). CWD has a sensitivity of 92% and specificity of 53% (PPV=62%, NPV=89%, accuracy=70%). Twenty-nine limbs had an incompetent popliteal vein (IPV). Of those, 12 limbs also had incompetence on CWD and competence on DUS at the SPJ, which represent 28% of the total number of limbs with these findings (n =43). CONCLUSION CWD is sensitive in detecting incompetence at SPJ, though its specificity is low. In this study 17% (n =29) of all patients had incompetence of popliteal vein. Up to 25% ( n =12) of patients with SPJ incompetence on CWD (Doppler +) and competence on DUS (duplex -) had incompetence of the underlying popliteal vein, which may explain the low specificity. The presence of SPJ incompetence on CWD should be confirmed on DUS prior to surgery.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine whether elderly people can learn to use the inhaler used to deliver zanamivir (Relenza Diskhaler) as effectively as the Turbohaler and to identify which aspects of inhaler technique are most problematic. DESIGN Randomised, controlled, intervention study. SETTING Wards for acute elderly care in a large district general hospital. PARTICIPANTS 73 patients who were unfamiliar with the use of an inhaler, aged 71 to 99 (mean 83) years. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Initial scores and changes in scores 24 hours later using a 10 point scoring system of five aspects of inhaler technique. RESULTS 38 patients were allocated the Relenza Diskhaler and 35 the Turbohaler. The mean total score was significantly greater in the Turbohaler than Diskhaler groups both initially (8.74 v 7.05) and after 24 hours (8.28 v 5.43). The major difference between inhalers was in loading and priming. After tuition 50% (19 of 38) of patients allocated the Diskhaler were unable to load and prime the device and 65% (24 of 37) were unable to do so 24 hours later. Of those allocated the Turbohaler, two patients were unable to load and prime the device after initial review and one after 24 hours. CONCLUSION Most elderly people cannot use the inhaler device used to deliver the anti-influenza drug zanamivir. Treatment with this drug is unlikely to be effective in elderly people unless the delivery system is improved.

Abstract
Carbohydrates and proteins are among the most abundant naturally occurring biomolecules and so suitable methods for their reliable stable isotope analysis by gas chromatography/combustion/isotope ratio mass spectrometry (GC/C/IRMS) are required. Due to the non-volatile nature of these compounds they require hydrolytic cleavage to their lower molecular weight subunits and derivatisation prior to GC/C/IRMS analysis. The addition of carbon to the molecules and any kinetic isotopic fractionation associated with derivatisation must be accounted for in order to provide meaningful stable isotope values and estimates of propagated errors. To illustrate these points amino acid trifluoroacetate/isopropyl esters and alditol acetates were prepared from authentic amino acids and monosaccharides, respectively. As predicted from the derivatisation reaction mechanisms, a kinetic isotope effect was observed which precludes direct calculation of delta(13)C values of the amino acids and monosaccharides by simple mass balance equations. This study shows that the kinetic isotope effect associated with derivatisation is both reproducible and robust, thereby allowing the use of correction factors. We show how correction factors can be determined and accurately account for the addition of derivative carbon. As a consequence of the addition of a molar excess of carbon and the existence of a kinetic isotope effect during derivatisation, errors associated with determined delta(13)C values must be assessed. We illustrate how such errors can be quantified (for monosaccharides +/-1.3 per thousand and for amino acids between +/-0.8 per thousand and +/-1.4 per thousand). With the magnitude of the errors for a given delta(13)C value of a monosaccharide or amino acid quantified, it is possible to make reliable interpretations of delta(13)C values, thereby validating the determination of delta(13)C values of amino acids as TFA/IP esters and monosaccharides as alditol acetates.
