Abstract
BACKGROUND Treatment effects of conventional approaches with antipsychotics or psychosocial interventions are limited when it comes to reducing negative and cognitive symptoms in schizophrenia. While there is emerging clinical evidence that new, augmented protocols based on theta-burst stimulation can increase rTMS efficacy dramatically in depression, data on similar augmented therapies are limited in schizophrenia. The different patterns of network impairments in subjects may underlie that some but not all patients responded to given stimulation locations. METHODS Therefore, we propose an augmented theta-burst stimulation protocol in schizophrenia by stimulating both locations connected to negative symptoms: (1) the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC), and (2) the vermis of the cerebellum. Ninety subjects with schizophrenia presenting negative symptoms and aging between 18 and 55 years will be randomized to active and sham stimulation in a 1:1 ratio. The TBS parameters we adopted follow the standard TBS protocols, with 3-pulse 50-Hz bursts given every 200 ms (at 5 Hz) and an intensity of 100% active motor threshold. We plan to deliver 1800 stimuli to the left DLPFC and 1800 stimuli to the vermis daily in two 9.5-min blocks for 4 weeks. The primary endpoint is the change in negative symptom severity measured by the Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS). Secondary efficacy endpoints are changes in cognitive flexibility, executive functioning, short-term memory, social cognition, and facial emotion recognition. The difference between study groups will be analyzed by a linear mixed model analysis with the difference relative to baseline in efficacy variables as the dependent variable and treatment group, visit, and treatment-by-visit interaction as independent variables. The safety outcome is the number of serious adverse events. DISCUSSION This is a double-blind, sham-controlled, randomized medical device study to assess the efficacy and safety of an augmented theta-burst rTMS treatment in schizophrenia. We hypothesize that social cognition and negative symptoms of patients on active therapy will improve significantly compared to patients on sham treatment. TRIAL REGISTRATION The study protocol is registered at "ClinicalTrials.gov" with the following ID: NCT05100888. All items from the World Health Organization Trial Registration Data Set are registered. Initial release: 10/19/2021.

Abstract
STUDY QUESTION What are the changes in serum concentration of total and cleaved anti-Muüllerian hormone (AMH) molecular forms and of androgens before and throughout pregnancy in women with and without polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) in a longitudinal follow-up investigation? SUMMARY ANSWER Serum levels of total and cleaved AMH are higher from preconception to the third trimester of pregnancy in women with PCOS as compared to controls, whereas testosterone and androstenedione levels are higher in women with PCOS than in control women before pregnancy and during the second and third trimester of pregnancy. WHAT IS KNOWN ALREADY Cross-sectional or partial longitudinal studies have shown higher AMH and androgen levels in pregnant women with PCOS as compared with non-PCOS women. To date, no complete longitudinal dynamic monitoring of the circulating forms of AMH and androgens from pre-conception to the third trimester of pregnancy have compared women with and without PCOS. STUDY DESIGN, SIZE, DURATION This systematic prospective quarterly longitudinal monocentric study was a comparative follow-up of 30 women with PCOS and 29 controls before and during pregnancy from April 2019 to July 2022. PARTICIPANTS/MATERIALS, SETTING, METHODS Women aged 18-43 years with a pre-conception measurement of AMH were included during the first trimester of a singleton pregnancy. The PCOS group was defined according to the Rotterdam diagnostic criteria. The control group patients included in the study had normal ovarian reserves. Circulating total and cleaved AMH, and serum estradiol, LH, and androgen levels were measured during the first, second, and third trimester of pregnancy in all study participants. MAIN RESULTS AND THE ROLE OF CHANCE Before pregnancy, patients with PCOS had higher levels of AMH than controls. The total and cleaved AMH forms were significantly higher in women with PCOS than controls from pre-conception to the third trimester of pregnancy (all P < 0.001). Androgens (total testosterone and androstenedione) were higher in women with PCOS than controls from mid-pregnancy onwards. LIMITATIONS, REASONS FOR CAUTION Our control population was a population of infertile women with no ovarian problems but most of them had undergone ART treatments to achieve pregnancy. WIDER IMPLICATIONS OF THE FINDINGS These results strengthen the hypothesis that gestational hyperandrogenism as well as exposure to elevated AMH levels in utero could be driving forces predisposing female progeny to develop PCOS. STUDY FUNDING/COMPETING INTEREST(S) Funding was provided by INSERM, France (grant number U1172) and the European Research Council (ERC) under the European Union's Horizon 2020 research and innovation program, ERC-2016-CoG to P.G. grant agreement n° 725149/REPRODAMH.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In recent years, a growing body of literature has supported the core nature and functional significance of Theory of Mind (ToM) deficit in schizophrenia. These findings have made ToM impairment a promising treatment target. However, despite the encouraging results, its complexity makes it difficult to develop new interventions and even to understand the exact nature and scope of the deficit. Yet, further investigation has suggested that using modern technology and multilevel assessment may help solve the problem. METHODS Virtual Reality-based Theory of Mind Intervention (VR-ToMIS) is a recently developed structured method using the combination of cognitive and behavioral therapeutic techniques and the advantages of Virtual Reality (VR) technology. A controlled study with a three-month follow-up was conducted with 42 patients (suffering from schizophrenia or schizo-affective disorder) randomly assigned to either an experimental (VR-ToMIS) or control group (passive-VR). Repeated two-way factorial analysis of covariance was used to evaluate the effects of VR-ToMIS on symptoms, neuro- and social cognition, pragmatic skills, and quality of life when the effect of IQ was controlled. RESULTS Patients participating in VR-ToMIS showed significant improvements in all types of ToM tasks (except for hyper-ToM task, based on the results of Cartoon test, Faux pas test and and Baron-Cohen Minds in the Eyes Test) compared to the control group with moderate to large effect sizes. In the case of negative and cognitive symptoms, significant between-group differences were also supported. Improvement was moderated by IQ in the case of higher-order ToM, manner, and relevance implicatures. Results were proved to be sustainable three months after the treatment. CONCLUSION Although the presented results are considered preliminary, they support the potential of the integration of modern technology and traditional methods for future interventions.

Abstract
Abstract
Study question
Are circulating levels of molecular forms of AMH throughout pregnancy still higher in women with PCOS than in controls?
Summary answer
AMH and its molecular forms decrease significantly throughout pregnancy, remaining higher in women with PCOS, without modification in the proportion of AMH molecular forms.
What is known already
AMH injection in late gestational mice causes a “PCOS” phenotype in the offspring’s, possibly via a gestational hyperandrogenism. AMH could therefore play a role in the heritability of PCOS in women. Circulating AMH exists in different molecular forms, cleaved (active) and uncleaved. In normal women, serum AMH decreases during pregnancy. In women with PCOS, cross-sectional or partial longitudinal studies have shown higher AMH levels in the second trimester of pregnancy and at the time of delivery in women with PCOS compared to controls. To date, no longitudinal dynamic monitoring of AMH throughout pregnancy in women with PCOS has been performed.
Study design, size, duration
Systematic prospective quarterly longitudinal monocentric comparative follow up of 30 women with PCOS and 29 controls before and during pregnancy from April 2019 to September 2021. To demonstrate a high effect size with 90% power and 5% first-species risk, it was necessary to include 23 subjects per arm. With a calculated loss of follow-up rate of 20%, 29 patients must be recruited per group.
Participants/materials, setting, methods
Women aged 18 to 43y, with a pre-conception dosage of AMH, were included during the first trimester of a singleton pregnancy. PCOS group was defined according to the modified Rotterdam criteria. In the control group, the patients had normal ovarian reserve. During the first, second and third trimester of pregnancy, all women were tested for serum AMH and its molecular forms with a Beckman automatic analyser, and for serum estradiol, LH and androgen levels.
Main results and the role of chance
Before pregnancy, patients with PCOS had higher levels of AMH (58.9 vs. 18.3pmol/L; p = <0.001), LH (5.9 vs. 3.3IU/L; p = 0.004) and total testosterone (TT) (0.35 vs. 0.29ng/ml; p = 0.019) than controls. Within each group, the levels of AMH and cleaved AMH were significantly lower in the third trimester than before pregnancy. The serum AMH level in the third trimester remained significantly higher in women with PCOS than in controls (18.4 vs. 6.5pmol/L; p = 0.002). At all times, the amount of cleaved AMH was higher in women with PCOS than in controls. The proportion of AMH molecular forms was not different between women with PCOS and controls and did not change throughout pregnancy. The LH level, mostly undetectable, was significantly lower in the third trimester than before pregnancy in both groups. In the first trimester, it remained higher in women with PCOS (0.6 vs 0.4IU/L; p = 0.018). In each group, the TT level was significantly higher in the third trimester than before pregnancy. TT level remained higher in women with PCOS than in control women in the first (0.76 vs 0.55ng/ml; p = 0.022) and second trimesters 0.82 vs. 0.61ng/ml; p = 0.013). In the third trimester, it was no longer significantly different (0.97 vs 0.64ng/ml; p = 0.069).
Limitations, reasons for caution
Only free testosterone is active, and only TT was measured. Additional SHBG and albumin measurements are needed. Our control population is a population of infertile women who have no ovarian problem but who have undergone, for most of them, ART treatments to obtain pregnancy with a possible impact on implantation.
Wider implications of the findings
Elevated serum AMH level could be instrumental in the modification of the in-utero androgenic environment that is believed to promote the transmission of the syndrome. The impact of AMH could be different depending on the clinical or metabolic phenotype of the patients and needs to be explored further.

Abstract
Introduction First episode psychosis (FEP) programs target the first 3-5 years after the first manifestation of a psychotic episode. Although follow-up results after 10-15 years are mixed, reported results of the first 5-10 years are promising in improving relapse prevention, functional outcomes and reducing mental health care costs, compared to treatment as usual. Objectives Our objective was to develop the first complex FEP program in Hungary. Methods Male and female inpatients, (age:17-40years), hospitalized due to a first psychotic episode and consenting to participate, were included, since 2019 October. Drug induced psychosis and organic background in the etiology of the psychotic episode were excluded. Duration of the program is 2-3 years, based on the individual needs of the patients. The program provides detailed clinical and neuropsychological examinations, MRI, pharmacotherapy, various psychosocial interventions, and support group for relatives. Results Twenty-eight patients [15 male,13 female, mean age=22,4 (18-40)years] were included. The program has been repeatedly limited by COVID-19 pandemic. Psychiatric control, pharmacotherapy, psychoeducation and supportive therapy, however could be continously provided via telepsychiatry, even during the lockdown. During the first 2 years, 90% of the patients remained in treatment, showed good compliance with pharmacotherapy; 10% of the patients were rehospitalized due to relapse. In the presentation, besides clinical experiences, preliminary clinical outcome data will also be presented. Conclusions The first complex FEP program in Hungary, although limited repeatedly by the pandemic, show promising clinical results with low relapse rates and high level of adherence to therapy in the first 2 years after a first psychotic episode.

Abstract
Background Data from interventional studies suggest that a peritoneal flap after pelvic lymph node dissection (LND) during laparoscopic, robotic-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) may reduce the rate of symptomatic lymphoceles in transperitoneal approach. However, most of these studies are not conducted in a randomized controlled fashion, thus limiting their scientific value. A recent prospective, randomized, controlled trial (RCT) did not show superiority of a peritoneal flap while further trials are lacking. Therefore, the aim of the presented RCT will be to show that creating a peritoneal flap decreases the rate of symptomatic lymphoceles compared to the current standard procedure without creation of a flap. Methods/design PELYCAN is a parallel-group, patient- and assessor-blinded, phase III, adaptive randomized controlled superiority trial. Men with histologically confirmed prostate cancer who undergo transperitoneal RARP with pelvic LND will be randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to two groups—either with creating a peritoneal flap (PELYCAN) or without creating a peritoneal flap (control). Sample size calculation yielded a sample size of 300 with a planned interim analysis after 120 patients, which will be performed by an independent statistician. This provides a possibility for early stopping or sample size recalculation. Patients will be stratified for contributing factors for the development of postoperative lymphoceles. The primary outcome measure will be the rate of symptomatic lymphoceles in both groups within 6 months postoperatively. Patients and assessors will be blinded for the intervention until the end of the follow-up period of 6 months. The surgeon will be informed about the randomization result after performance of vesicourethral anastomosis. Secondary outcome measures include asymptomatic lymphoceles at the time of discharge and within 6 months of follow-up, postoperative complications, mortality, re-admission rate, and quality of life assessed by the EORTC QLQ-C30 questionnaire. Discussion The PELYCAN study is designed to assess whether the application of a peritoneal flap during RARP reduces the rate of symptomatic lymphoceles, as compared with the standard operation technique. In case of superiority of the intervention, this peritoneal flap may be suggested as a new standard of care. Trial registration German Clinical Trials Register DRKS00016794.

Abstract
Schizophrenia is a severe and disabling mental illness, associated with persistent difficulties in social functioning. While gaining and retaining a job or staying socially integrated can be very difficult for the patients, the treatment of poor functionality remains challenging with limited options in pharmacotherapy. To address the limitations of medical treatment, several interesting and innovative approaches have been introduced in the field of psychotherapy. Recent approaches incorporate modern technology as well, such as virtual reality. A potential therapeutic benefit of virtual reality is particularly significant when an interpersonal dimension of the problem needs to be addressed. One example is a Virtual Reality based Theory of Mind Intervention (VR-ToMIS), a novel method, which enables patients to practice complex social interactions without the burden of real-life consequences. Our paper presents a case report showing promising results of VR-ToMIS. Ms. Smith is a 50- year-old patient who has been suffering from schizophrenia for 20 years. Although in her case there was no problem with compliance throughout the years, she had severe problems regarding social functionality. With VR-ToMIS, she improved in ToM and communicative-pragmatic skills. The effects of the intervention went beyond the increased scores of the tests. Before the intervention there was a risk of the patient becoming unemployed as she was unable to follow the main principles of communicative exchange. Usually, her contribution was more informative than was required. After the intervention her communication became more balanced and she could retain her job. This case suggests that VR-ToMIS may be a promising tool for treating social disfunction in schizophrenia.

Abstract
Schizophrenia is a severe and highly disabling mental illness. Although several pharmacological solutions are available to alleviate symptoms of schizophrenia, they do not seem to provide solution for accompanying social dysfunctions. To handle this unmet clinical need, many innovative interventions have been developed recently. Considering the promising results on this field and the development trend, characterized by the growing proportion of included interactive technology, our research team developed a novel virtual reality (VR)-based targeted theory of mind (ToM) intervention (VR-ToMIS) for stable outpatients with schizophrenia. VR-ToMIS is a nine-session long structured and individualized method that uses cognitive and behavioural therapeutic techniques in an immersive VR environment. Our study was a randomized, controlled pilot study. Twenty-one patients have been recruited and randomly allocated to either VR-ToMIS or passive VR condition. Patients assigned to passive VR condition could use the same VR software as the VR-ToMIS group, but without any interventions. Effects on psychiatric symptoms, neurocognitive and social cognitive functions, pragmatic language skills and quality of life were evaluated by using analysis of covariance. According to our results, VR-ToMIS was associated with improvements in negative symptoms, in one neurocognitive field (immediate memory), ToM and pragmatic language skills, but no significant change in quality of life scores was detected. Significant changes in VR-ToMIS group were associated with moderate to large therapeutic effects (ηp 2 = .24-.46, φ = .55-.67). On the background of the presented pilot results, VR-ToMIS is concluded to be feasible and tolerable.

Abstract
The objective of this research is to identify the relationship between the neuropsychiatric symptoms (NPSs) of patients with major neurocognitive disorder (mNCD), their quality of life, illness intrusiveness and the caregiver’s burden. We assessed 131 patients with mNCD. Examination methods included WHO well-being index short version, illness intrusiveness rating scale, Alzheimer’s Disease Assessment Scale-Cog, Mini Mental State Examination and neuropsychiatric inventory. The results were analysed using standard statistical tests. In our sample, the prevalence of NPSs is 100%. A significant correlation (p < 0.0001) was observed with quality of life and illness intrusiveness. Additionally, a strong relationship was observed between NPSs and the caregiver’s burden (r = 0.9). The result is significantly twice as much stronger in comparison to the relationship between NPS and cognitive symptoms (r = 0.4). This is the first study in Hungary to assess the impact of NPS on the burden of relatives and quality of life. NPS had twice stronger impact on caregivers’ burden than cognitive decline. However, further studies are needed to assess the sub-syndromes in mNCD in relation to NPS.

Abstract
Foot pain is a frequent cause of lameness in horses and can involve multiple structures within the hoof. The T-ligament (an anatomical structure connecting the synovium of the distal interphalangeal joint, the digital flexor tendon sheath and the navicular bursa) is poorly described. Five pairs of equine cadaver distal forelimbs were collected from a slaughterhouse. Sagittal sections (medial, middle and lateral) were obtained and processed with Haematoxylin Eosin Safran, Unna's Orcein, and Picrosirius red stains. Histological assessment revealed that the T-ligament was covered by the surrounding synovia of the distal interphalangeal joint, the digital flexor tendon sheath and the navicular bursa. Its collagen content was lower (30.01%±10.15) than that of the collateral sesamoidean ligament (89.48%±5.8; P = .0008) and the middle phalanx (85.72%±3.67; P = .0008). Under polarized light microscopy, it showed a slight heterogeneous pattern of birefringence, with angle-related changes. Elastic fibres were more numerous (21.76%±8.72) than in the collateral sesamoidean ligament (0.28%±0.45), or deep digital flexor tendon (0.04%±0.02); and were more densely packed. Mean cell count was higher for the T-ligament than for other tissues (P = .0007). Blood vessels were identified in the T-ligament and were penetrating the deep digital flexor tendon (8/10 limbs, 5/5 horses). In conclusion, the T-ligament looked like a vinculum for the deep digital flexor tendon, with a central elastic core, surrounding loose connective tissue and blood vessels. It is not a ligament. Its clinical relevance still needs to be determined.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Most studies of elderly-onset Crohn's disease [CD; diagnosed in patients aged 60 or over] have described a mild course. However, data on the natural history of perianal fistulising CD [pfCD] in this population are scarce. In a population-based cohort study, we described the prevalence, natural history, and treatment of pfCD in patients with elderly-onset CD vs patients with paediatric-onset CD. METHOD All patients diagnosed with CD at or after the age of 60 between 1988 and 2006, were included [n = 372]. Logistic regression, Cox models, and a nested case-control method were used to identify factors associated with pfCD. RESULTS A total of 34 elderly patients [9% of the 372] had pfCD at diagnosis. After a median follow-up of 6 years (interquartile range [IQR]: 3; 10), 59 patients [16%] had pfCD; the same prevalence [16%] was observed in paediatric-onset patients. At last follow-up, anal incontinence was more frequent in elderly patients with pfCD than in elderly patients without pfCD [22% vs 4%, respectively; p < 10-4]. Rectal CD at diagnosis was associated with pfCD: hazard ratio (95% confidence interval [CI] = 2.8 [1.6-5.0]). Although 37% of the patients received immunosuppressants and 17% received anti-tumour necrosis factor agents, 24% [14 out of 59] had a definitive stoma at last follow-up. CONCLUSION During the first 6 years of disease, the prevalence of pfCD was similar in elderly and paediatric patients. Rectal involvement was associated with the appearance of pfCD in elderly-onset patients. Around a quarter of patients with elderly-onset CD will have a stoma. Our results suggest that treatment with biologics should be evaluated in these patients.

Abstract
Dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB) and Parkinson's disease dementia (PDD) are two major neurodegenerative diseases sharing common clinical, pathophysiological and morphologic features. The pathological hallmark of both diseases is the presence of Lewy-bodies (LB). The main constituent of these inclusions is the pathologically aggregated α-synuclein protein. In DLB, LBs are predominantly located in the cortex, whereas in PDD, the subcortical regions are predominantly affected. Furthermore, in DLB, coexisting Alzheimer's disease (AD), pathology with β-amyloid plaques and neurofibrillary tangles are more common. It is still debated whether DLB and PDD are two distinct entities or different phenotypes of the same disease. Clinical diagnosis is based on the temporal sequence of motor and cognitive symptoms. Dementia often precedes parkinsonism in DLB, while in PDD, cognitive decline generally appears after the onset of motor symptoms. Also, fluctuation of cognitive functions and neuroleptic sensitivity is more severe in DLB than PDD. The recent advancements of imaging techniques revealed that cortical damage, cholinergic deficit and concomitant AD pathology are more severe in DLB compared to PDD. The analysis of cerebrospinal fluid biomarkers shows higher oligomeric α-synuclein burden in PDD. Levodopa is less effective in DLB than in PDD and may increase the risk of psychosis. In this review, we comprehensively analyse the pathological, radiological and clinical features of DLB and PDD, highlighting the overlaps and differences. Orv Hetil. 2020; 161(18): 727-737.

Abstract
AbstractBackgroundThe objective of the present study was to examine the association of insight into the illness with demographic variables and symptomatology in a sample of 1213 patients with schizophrenia.MethodData were collected with the Psychosis Evaluation tool for Common use by Caregivers (PECC), a semi-structured interview evaluating five symptom domains of schizophrenia and the insight items ‘awareness of having a mental disorder’ and ‘attributing symptoms to a mental disorder’.ResultsInsight was positively associated with educational level and inversely with overall symptom severity, and the positive, negative, excitatory and cognitive symptom domains. At symptom level, the items ‘delusions’, ‘grandiosity’, ‘poor rapport’, ‘social withdrawal’ and ‘guilt feelings’ showed the strongest associations with both insight items. Overall, correlations between insight and symptomatology were modest, explaining less than 30% of the variance in insight.ConclusionLack of insight in schizophrenia is partially explained by clinical symptoms and demographic measures.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Low-grade serous ovarian carcinoma (LGSOC) is a rare disease that accounts for 5% of all ovarian cancers and requires surgical complete debulking. To date, the prognostic value of pelvic and paraaortic lymphadenectomy remains unclear in this population. PATIENTS AND METHODS This retrospective cohort of patients with a diagnosis of LGSOC was registered in the Tumeurs Malignes Rares Gynécologiques national network, between January 2000 and July 2017, at 25 centers. All LGSOC were confirmed after pathological review and operated by primary debulking surgery (PDS) or interval debulking surgery after neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT-IDS). Primary endpoints were overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS). RESULTS A total of 126 patients were included, 86.1% were stage III/IV, and 74.6% underwent lymph node dissection (LND). According to the Completeness of Cancer Resection (CCR) score, 83.7% had complete resection. Median OS was 130 months, and median PFS was 41 months. Pelvic and paraaortic LND had no significant impact on OS (p = 0.78) or DFS (p = 0.93), and this was confirmed in subgroups (advanced stages FIGO III/IV, CCR score 0/1 or 2/3, and timing of surgery PDS or NACT-IDS). Histological positive paraaortic lymph nodes had a significant negative impact on PFS in the whole population (HR 2.21, 1.18-4.39, p = 0.02) and in the CC0/CC1 population (HR, 2.28, 1.13-4.59, p = 0.02). CONCLUSIONS Systematic pelvic and paraaortic LND in patients with LGSOC improved neither overall nor PFS. A prospective trial would be necessary to validate these results but would be difficult to conduct due to the rarity of this disease.

Abstract
Background Behavioural and psychological symptoms in dementia (BPSD) form an important sub-syndrome of dementia. We assessed the frequency and severity of BPSD in a random sample of Hungarian treatment-naïve dementia patients. Furthermore, we examined the relationship between cognitive symptoms and BPSD and the pattern of BPSD in specific types of dementias. Methods Patients (n=131) were classified into 3 groups: Alzheimer’s (AD), vascular (VD), and mixed (MD) dementia. The Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE), Alzheimer’s Disease Assessment Scale-Cognitive Subscale (ADAS-Cog) and Neuropsychiatric Inventory (NPI) neuropsychological tests were employed. Results Mean age and MMSE score did not differ significantly among groups. BPSD was frequent (100% prevalence, NPI mean total Frequency score: 14.58, SD=7.55); abnormal motor behaviour showed the highest frequency. Hallucinations and delusions were related to the aetiology of dementia and were independent of the level of cognitive deterioration, whereas irritability, sleep-wake cycle dysfunctions, and eating-appetite change were associated with cognitive deterioration and were independent from aetiology. Both aberrant motor behaviour and disinhibition were significantly associated with aetiology and cognitive deterioration. Conclusions BPSD symptoms are significant constituents of dementia syndromes, affecting quality of life and substantially contributing to the caregiver’s burden. Specific symptom patterns can be identified in different types of dementia.

Abstract
UNLABELLED We conducted a qualitative study with French men and women in order to provide insight into individuals' experiences, behaviors, and perceptions about osteoporosis (OP) and OP care. The data showed that both sexes, but especially men, were unfamiliar with OP, did not always feel concerned, and mistrusted pharmacological treatments. INTRODUCTION To engage actively in osteoporosis (OP) prevention, people need to have basic knowledge about the disease. The aim of this qualitative study was to explore knowledge and representations of OP care and prevention among both men and women. METHODS Focus groups were conducted in the Rhône-Alpes Region, France, with women aged 50-85 years and men aged 60-85 years, with or without a history of fragility fracture and/or an OP diagnosis (respectively referred to as "aware" or "unaware"). A total of 45 women (23 "aware" and 22 "unaware" in 5 and 4 focus groups, respectively) and 53 men (19 "aware" and 34 "unaware" in 3 and 4 focus groups, respectively) were included. A thematic analysis of transcripts was performed to explore knowledge and representations about OP, risk factors, prevention, and treatment. RESULTS The data showed that both sexes, but especially men, had limited knowledge of OP and considered it as a natural aging process not related to fragility fractures. They generally did not feel concerned by OP and no important difference was observed between "aware" and "unaware" patients. Women expressed their fear of the disease, associated with aging and the end of life, while men considered it to be a women's disease only. Both sexes were aware of OP risk factors, but were suspicious towards treatments because of the associated side effects. CONCLUSION Understanding people's representation of OP might help to provide patients with relevant information in order to optimize their preventive behavior and decrease the burden of the disease.

Abstract
Theory of Mind (ToM) plays a central role in regulating social interactions and its impairment is consistently reported in schizophrenia. Regarding schizophrenia, ToM is usually discussed as a sub-domain of social cognition. Since social cognitive deficits have drawn the attention of researchers, a variety of novel treatment techniques and approaches targeting social cognitive deficits have been developed. Encouraging results have repeatedly been reported on the modifiability of social cognitive impairment through these techniques. However, emotional perception seems to be over-represented in these approaches at the expense of other areas, such as ToM. This article presents a systematic review on the social cognitive interventions of the last 10 years, which focused on the remediation of ToM or used techniques primarily focusing on one or more social cognitive domains other than ToM, but with hypothetical effects on it. The aim of our systematic review was to compare these intervention techniques in order to see how effective they are in the remediation of ToM, and to find the best techniques to ameliorate ToM deficits in schizophrenia. According to our findings targeted ToM intervention produced more improvement in ToM tasks, while data regarding non-ToM interventions showed contradictory results with limited effects on ToM.

Abstract
Limited data exist regarding patient-reported outcomes and quality of life (QOL) experienced by patients with Barrett's esophagus (BE) referred for endoscopic eradication therapy (EET). Specifically, the impact of grade of dysplasia has not been explored. The purpose of this study is to measure patient-reported symptoms and QOL and identify factors associated with poor QOL in BE patients referred for EET. This was a prospective multicenter study conducted from January 2015 to October 2017, which included patients with BE referred for EET. Participants completed a set of validated questionnaires to measure QOL, symptom severity, and psychosocial factors. The primary outcome was poor QOL defined by a PROMIS score >12. Multivariable logistic regression analysis was performed to identify factors associated with poor QOL. In total, 193 patients participated (mean age 64.6 years, BE length 5.5 cm, 82% males, 92% Caucasians) with poor QOL reported in 104 (53.9%) participants. On univariate analysis, patients with poor QOL had lower use of twice daily proton pump inhibitor use (61.5% vs. 86.5%, P = 0.03), shorter disease duration (4.9 vs. 5.9 years, P = 0.04) and progressive increase in grade of dysplasia (high-grade dysplasia: 68.8% vs. 31.3%, esophageal adenocarcinoma: 75.5% vs. 24.5%, P < 0.001). Multivariate analysis demonstrated that high-grade dysplasia was independently associated with poor QOL (OR: 5.57, 95% CI: 1.05, 29.5, P = 0.04). In summary, poor QOL is experienced by the majority of patients with BE referred for EET and the degree of dysplasia was independently associated with poor QOL, which emphasizes the need to incorporate patient-centered outcomes when studying treatment of BE-related dysplasia.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Few data are available to describe the changes in incidence of pediatric-onset inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). The aim of this study was to describe changes in incidence and phenotypic presentation of pediatric-onset IBD in northern France during a 24-year period. METHODS Pediatric-onset IBD (<17 years) was issued from a population-based IBD study in France between 1988 and 2011. Age groups and digestive location were defined according to the Paris classification. RESULTS 1,350 incident cases were recorded (8.3% of all IBD) including 990 Crohn's disease (CD), 326 ulcerative colitis (UC) and 34 IBD unclassified (IBDU). Median age at diagnosis was similar in CD (14.4 years (Q1=11.8-Q3=16.0)) and UC (14.0 years (11.0-16.0)) and did not change over time. There were significantly more males with CD (females/males=0.82) than UC (females/males=1.25) (P=0.0042). Median time between onset of symptoms and IBD diagnosis was consistently 3 months (1-6). Mean incidence was 4.4/105 for IBD overall (3.2 for CD, 1.1 for UC and 0.1 for IBDU). From 1988-1990 to 2009-2011, a dramatic increase in incidences of both CD and UC were observed in adolescents (10-16 years): for CD from 4.2 to 9.5/105 (+126%; P<0.001) and for UC, from 1.6 to 4.1/105 (+156%; P<0.001). No modification in age or location at diagnosis was observed in either CD or UC. CONCLUSIONS In this population-based study, CD and UC incidences increased dramatically in adolescents across a 24-year span, suggesting that one or more strong environmental factors may predispose this population to IBD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Data on extra-intestinal manifestations [EIM] and their impact on the disease course of ulcerative colitis [UC] in population-based cohorts are scarce, particularly in paediatric- and elderly-onset UC patients. The aims of this population-based study were to assess: 1] the occurrence of EIM in paediatric- and elderly-onset UC; 2] the factors associated with EIM; and 3] their impact on long-term disease outcome. METHODS Paediatric-onset [< 17 years at diagnosis] and elderly-onset UC patients [> 60 years at diagnosis] from a French prospective population-based registry [EPIMAD] were included. Data on EIM and other clinical factors at diagnosis and at maximal follow-up were collected. RESULTS In all, 158 paediatric- and 470 elderly-onset patients were included [median age at diagnosis 14.5 and 68.8 years, median follow-up 11.2 and 6.2 years, respectively]. EIM occurred in 8.9% of childhood- and 3% of elderly-onset patients at diagnosis and in 16.7% and 2.2% of individuals during follow-up [p < 0.01], respectively. The most frequent EIM was joint involvement [15.8% of paediatric onset and 2.6% of elderly-onset]. Presence of EIM at diagnosis was associated with more severe disease course [need for immunosuppressants or biologic therapy or colectomy] in both paediatric- and elderly-onset UC (hazard ratio [HR] = 2.0, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.0-4.2; and HR = 2.8, 0.9-7.9, respectively). Extensive colitis was another independent risk factor in both age groups. CONCLUSIONS Elderly-onset UC patients had lower risk of EIM either at diagnosis or during follow-up than paediatric-onset individuals. EIM at diagnosis predicted more severe disease outcome, including need for immunosuppressive or biologic therapy or surgery, in both paediatric- and elderly-onset UC.

Abstract
Dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB) is the second most common neurodegenerative dementia. The accurate diagnosis is often possible only by neuropathological examination. The morphologic hallmarks are the presence of α-synuclein-rich Lewy bodies and Lewy neurites, identical to those seen in Parkinson's disease (PD) and Parkinson's disease dementia (PDD). Neurotransmitter deficits, synaptic and ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS) dysfunction play major role in the pathomechanism. Characteristic symptoms are cognitive fluctuation, parkinsonism and visual hallucinations. Due to the often atypical clinical presentation novel imaging techniques and biomarkers could help the early diagnosis. Although curative treatment is not available, therapies can improve quality of life. Clinicopathological studies are important in exploring pathomechanisms, ensuring accurate diagnosis and identifying therapeutic targets. Orv Hetil. 2017; 158(17): 643-652.

Abstract
Barlow's disease has a complex pathology requiring reconstructive surgery. Despite the complicated surgery it holds a positive outcome. We report a successful case of Barlow's disease who underwent mitral valve reconstructive surgery at our centre. Post-operative echocardiography shows a well-functioning repaired mitral valve without significant mitral regurgitation.

Abstract
AIM The purpose of this study was to investigate intraoperative iris behavior during some phacoemulsification maneuvers in rabbits treated with tamsulosin or finasteride. MATERIAL AND METHOD An experimental study was conducted on 26 Metis male rabbits aged 1.5 - 2 years, body weight between 3.4 and 5.6 kg, divided into three groups: Group 1 - Control, 6 rabbits; Group 2 - tamsulosin, 10 rabbits; Group 3 - finasteride, 10 rabbits. Dose calculation was performed according to body surface area ratio man/rabbit, taking into account the median lethal dose LD50. Surgery study in rabbits was done over two days by the same specialist using an adapted protocol. He was not informed before or during surgeries which group the animal belonged to, the order being random with a quasi-uniform distribution. Valid results for a modified iris behavior were obtained from two steps of the procedure (cannula irrigation maneuver and irrigation-aspiration). The iris billowing was graded from 0 to 3, according to severity. RESULTS The risk of intraoperative iris billowing was higher in rabbits included in tamsulosin group [OR=8.33 (CI 95% 0.63-110.09)], but insignificant statistically compare with control group (p= 0.13). In rabbits treated with finasteride the risk of intraoperative iris billowing is increased compared with those without treatment [OR=11.6 (CI 95% 0.92-147.6)], but insignificant statistically (p= 0.11). CONCLUSION In our research, we showed an increased risk of intraoperative iris billowing in rabbits treated with finasteride, almost similar with those obtained in rabbits treated with tamsulosin. Further experimental or clinical studies to confirm the role of finasteride in the etiology of intraoperative floppy iris syndrome in humans are needed. Hippokratia 2015, 19 (1): 20-24.

Abstract
Reactor design considerations are crucial aspects of dark fermentative hydrogen production. During the last decades, many types of reactors have been developed and used in order to drive biohydrogen technology towards practicality and economical-feasibility. In general, the ultimate aim is to improve the key features of the process, namely the H2 yields and generation rates. Among the various configurations, the traditional, completely stirred tank reactors (CSTRs) are still the most routinely employed ones. However, due to their limitations, there is a progress to develop more reliable alternatives. One of the research directions points to systems combining membranes, which are called as anaerobic membrane bioreactors (AnMBRs). The aim of this paper is to summarize and highlight the recent biohydrogen related work done on AnMBRs and moreover to evaluate their performances and potentials in comparison with their conventional CSTR counterparts.

Abstract
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) concentrations and N, C stable isotope signatures were determined in mosses Hypnum cupressiforme Hedw. from 61 sites of 3 European regions: Île-de-France (France); Navarra (Spain); the Swiss Plateau and Basel area (Switzerland). Total PAH concentrations of 100-700 ng g(-1), as well as δ(13)C values of -32 to -29‰ and δ(15)N values of -11 to -3‰ were measured. Pearson correlation tests revealed opposite trends between high molecular weight PAH (4-6 aromatic rings) content and δ(13)C values. Partial Least Square regressions explained the very significant correlations (r > 0.91, p < 0.001) between high molecular weight PAH concentrations by local urban land use (<10 km) and environmental factors such as elevation and pluviometry. Finally, specific correlations between heavy metal and PAH concentrations were attributed to industrial emissions in Switzerland and road traffic emissions in Spain.

Abstract
Gender identity disorder (GID) refers to transsexual individuals who feel that their assigned biological gender is incongruent with their gender identity and this cannot be explained by any physical intersex condition. There is growing scientific interest in the last decades in studying the neuroanatomy and brain functions of transsexual individuals to better understand both the neuroanatomical features of transsexualism and the background of gender identity. So far, results are inconclusive but in general, transsexualism has been associated with a distinct neuroanatomical pattern. Studies mainly focused on male to female (MTF) transsexuals and there is scarcity of data acquired on female to male (FTM) transsexuals. Thus, our aim was to analyze structural MRI data with voxel based morphometry (VBM) obtained from both FTM and MTF transsexuals (n = 17) and compare them to the data of 18 age matched healthy control subjects (both males and females). We found differences in the regional grey matter (GM) structure of transsexual compared with control subjects, independent from their biological gender, in the cerebellum, the left angular gyrus and in the left inferior parietal lobule. Additionally, our findings showed that in several brain areas, regarding their GM volume, transsexual subjects did not differ significantly from controls sharing their gender identity but were different from those sharing their biological gender (areas in the left and right precentral gyri, the left postcentral gyrus, the left posterior cingulate, precuneus and calcarinus, the right cuneus, the right fusiform, lingual, middle and inferior occipital, and inferior temporal gyri). These results support the notion that structural brain differences exist between transsexual and healthy control subjects and that majority of these structural differences are dependent on the biological gender.
