Abstract
The concerted use of nano-metal particles with catalytic functions and nanoporous materials holds promise for effective air purification and gas sensing; however, only a few studies have used porous glasses as supports for Au nanoparticles. Furthermore, Au/nanoporous glasses with activities comparable to that of Au/TiO2, which is a typical Au catalyst, have not been reported to date. This study demonstrates that a nanoporous glass, which is highly acid- and alkali-resistant and chemically stable, can be decorated with Au nanoparticles using an alkali impregnation method. The resulting composite exhibits high catalytic activity in CO oxidation. The catalysts reported herein are as active as Au/TiO2 catalysts per active site. Further optimisation of the pore properties of the glass and sizes of the Au nanoparticles is expected to result in excellent catalytic systems for CO removal and sensing.

Abstract
The structure and decay of the most neutron-rich beryllium isotope, ^{16}Be, has been investigated following proton knockout from a high-energy ^{17}B beam. Two relatively narrow resonances were observed for the first time, with energies of 0.84(3) and 2.15(5) MeV above the two-neutron decay threshold and widths of 0.32(8) and 0.95(15) MeV, respectively. These were assigned to be the ground (J^{π}=0^{+}) and first excited (2^{+}) state, with E_{x}=1.31(6) MeV. The mass excess of ^{16}Be was thus deduced to be 56.93(13) MeV, some 0.5 MeV more bound than the only previous measurement. Both states were observed to decay by direct two-neutron emission. Calculations incorporating the evolution of the wave function during the decay as a genuine three-body process reproduced the principal characteristics of the neutron-neutron energy spectra for both levels, indicating that the ground state exhibits a strong spatially compact dineutron component, while the 2^{+} level presents a far more diffuse neutron-neutron distribution.

Abstract
Objective Skeletal muscle weakness and cardiomyopathy can be seen in carriers of dystrophinopathy. Therefore, the health management of caregivers of Duchenne/Becker muscular dystrophy (DMD/BMD) patients who are themselves carriers is an important issue. However, few studies have focused on caregivers who have dystrophin mutations. Methods In this cross-sectional study conducted at five hospitals, the daily living, situation medical treatment status, genetic testing, physical assessment, care burden, and quality of life of caregivers of DMD/BMD patients were surveyed. Results The subjects were 36 main caregivers (mean age 55.7±8.4 years old), of whom 52.8% were diagnosed as carriers, 8.3% were noncarriers, and 38.9% were not confirmed. In addition, half of the caregivers were not examined regularly at medical institutions. Of all caregivers, 54.3% had muscle or cardiac symptoms, and 75% had elevated serum creatine kinase levels. The mean Zarit Caregiver Burden Interview (ZBI) total score of current caregivers was 20.9±13.1. The frequency of a ZBI total score ≥25 was significantly higher in caregivers diagnosed as carriers than in caregivers unexamined as carriers (p=0.04). The health-related quality of life score (Short Form 36; SF-36) in caregivers was slightly lower than the Japanese standard scores in the sections of physical functioning, role limitations-physical, bodily pain, and social functioning. Conclusion Some caregivers of DMD/BMD patients can themselves have muscular or cardiac symptoms and a heavy care burden. It is therefore necessary for carrier caregivers, especially women, to undergo regular health checkups and receive appropriate health management.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Faecal immunochemical test (FIT)-directed pathways based on a single test have been implemented for symptomatic patients. However, with a single test, the sensitivity is 87 per cent at 10 µg haemoglobin (Hb) per g faeces. This aims of this study were to define the diagnostic performance of a single FIT, compared with double FIT in symptomatic populations. METHODS Two sequential prospective patient cohorts referred with symptoms from primary care were studied. Patients in cohort 1 were sent a single FIT, and those in cohort 2 received two tests in succession before investigation. All patients were investigated, regardless of having a positive or negative test (threshold 10 µg Hb per g). RESULTS In cohort 1, 2260 patients completed one FIT and investigation. The sensitivity of single FIT was 84.1 (95 per cent c.i. 73.3 to 91.8) per cent for colorectal cancer and 67.4 (61.0 to 73.4) per cent for significant bowel pathology. In cohort 2, 3426 patients completed at least one FIT, and 2637 completed both FITs and investigation. The sensitivity of double FIT was 96.6 (90.4 to 99.3) per cent for colorectal cancer and 83.0 (77.4 to 87.8) per cent for significant bowel pathology. The second FIT resulted in a 50.0 per cent reduction in cancers missed by the first FIT, and 30.0 per cent for significant bowel pathology. Correlation between faecal Hb level was only modest (rs = 0.58), and 16.8 per cent of double tests were discordant, 11.4 per cent in patients with colorectal cancer and 18.3 per cent in those with significant bowel pathology. CONCLUSION FIT in patients with high-risk symptoms twice in succession reduces missed significant colorectal pathology and has an acceptable workload impact.

Abstract
High-power, short-pulse laser-driven fast electrons can rapidly heat and ionize a high-density target before it hydrodynamically expands. The transport of such electrons within a solid target has been studied using two-dimensional (2D) imaging of electron-induced Kα radiation. However, it is currently limited to no or picosecond scale temporal resolutions. Here, we demonstrate femtosecond time-resolved 2D imaging of fast electron transport in a solid copper foil using the SACLA x-ray free electron laser (XFEL). An unfocused collimated x-ray beam produced transmission images with sub-micron and ∼10 fs resolutions. The XFEL beam, tuned to its photon energy slightly above the Cu K-edge, enabled 2D imaging of transmission changes induced by electron isochoric heating. Time-resolved measurements obtained by varying the time delay between the x-ray probe and the optical laser show that the signature of the electron-heated region expands at ∼25% of the speed of light in a picosecond duration. Time-integrated Cu Kα images support the electron energy and propagation distance observed with the transmission imaging. The x-ray near-edge transmission imaging with a tunable XFEL beam could be broadly applicable for imaging isochorically heated targets by laser-driven relativistic electrons, energetic protons, or an intense x-ray beam.

Abstract
Background As a type of welfare technology, care robotics is now widely seen as a potential aide to rehabilitation, increasing independence and enhancing the wellbeing of people with disabilities and older adults. Research into and development of care robots have both been vigorously promoted in North America, Europe and Asia, and the competition for technological advancement in robotics is becoming fierce. AI ethics and policy guidelines are being established. However, there are still differences in attitudes and perceptions, as well as national policies regarding this type of welfare technology. Moreover, despite the anticipated usefulness, it is believed that progress has been slow in the diffusion of care robots. Purpose In order to explore how public discourses support technological innovation, such as care robots, while preparing society for potential risks and impact, we sought to ascertain whether public discourse on care robots varies from region to region. For example, what are the hopes and promises associated with care robots and what are the concerns? Methods To address these questions, this article explored how care robots have been portrayed in five major broadsheet newspapers in five jurisdictions in Asia and Europe (France, Great Britain, Hong Kong SAR, Ireland and Japan). We obtained 545 articles for the period between January 2001 and September 2020, more than half of which originated in Japan. A thematic analysis was conducted of these articles written in four languages (Chinese, English, French and Japanese). Results Positive and negative narratives were teased out, alongside other key prominent themes identified, such as Japan as the land of robots, the pandemic, and the impact of robots on the economy. As the number of robot-related articles grew from the year 2012 onwards, narratives became more nuanced in European newspapers, but not in Asian ones. Furthermore, recent articles began to address the social and relational impact of care robots, while providing concrete examples of improvements in the quality of life for users. Further careful examination will be necessary in the future in order to establish the impact of robotics use in rehabilitation for people with disabilities, older adults, their carers and society at large.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
The pandemic heightened the sense of security and safety in care settings, with cleanliness and infection control becoming an even more important aspect of care delivery. Although the impact of new welfare technology on health and social care has been discussed in recent years, few studies have reported the implementation processes or human-robot interactions in care facilities in different cultural settings. The aims of this interdisciplinary research therefore were to understand needs and aspects that have to be considered for implementing an assistive robot, and to explore user perceptions, and the process by which the robots are adopted in Ireland and Japan.
Methods
An original air-disinfection robot (V-Air) was developed by Akara Robotics, as part of research project “Harmonisation towards the establishment of Person-centred, Robotics-aided Care System” (Toyota Foundation, D18-ST-0005). Prior to its instalment in a rehabilitation centre in Dublin, semi-structured interviews were conducted, and observations carried out with seven care professionals, as they interacted with V-Air. The robot was then trialled for eight weeks (March-May 2022) in selected areas of the facility. After four weeks, the users filled out the System Usability Score and were asked questions at the end of the trial. Their scores and answers to the questions revealed staff perceptions and attitudes to care robots.
Results
Overall, the users had positive perceptions of V-Air and its usability. Initial differences existed in staff’s confidence levels, depending on prior experiences with technologies. Collective sensemaking was observed, particularly, around care delivery processes and robot functionalities. The adoption process was facilitated by several factors such as the timing of introduction, user-centred design, concept of care and organisational support.
Conclusion
The findings suggest that the introduction of care robots in care settings can offer an additional layer of organisational safety, while highlighting the significance of the iterative process in adopting assistive technologies.

Abstract
Abstract
Aim
Single-staged abdominal wall reconstruction (AWR) with simultaneous enterocutaneous fistula (ECF) repair is safe. This study aims to evaluate short-term outcomes from AWR with ECF repair and compare short-term outcomes between two commonly used acellular dermal matrices (ADM) as well as suture repair alone, with focus on ECF recurrence.
Methods
Data were collected between 2011 and 2019 from a prospectively maintained operative database. A retrospective case-note review identifed patient demographics and post-operative outcomes. Kruskal-Wallis test was used for categorical variables and one-way ANOVA for continuous variables to evaluate between groups.
Results
One hundred and fifteen cases were performed in the study period: 70 primary suture repair, 28 Surgimend and 17 Strattice. Fifty-eight patients (50.4%) were female with a mean age of 55.3 years (SD 13.9), BMI of 26.9 (SD 5.18) and 75 (65.2%) had intestinal failure. Median length of stay was 25 days (range 7–176).
Overall, fistula recurrence rate was 10.4% (12 cases). Of these, 9 (12.8%) occurred in the suture repair group, 2 (11.8%) where a Strattice mesh was used and 1 (3.6%) where a Surgimend mesh was used (p=0.54). Forty-six patients (40%) had a Clavien Dindo complication of >3 and 73 patients (53.2%) had an SSI. Mortality was low at 2.8%.
Conclusion
Single-staged AWR in conjunction with ECF repair remains a complex but safe undertaking. Initial experience suggests Surgimend is safe to use in the context of single-staged AWR and ECF recurrence rates are lower than with a comparable ADM with similar short-term outcomes.

Abstract
Polymerization-induced self-assembly (PISA) is a useful formulation for readily obtaining nanoparticles from block copolymers in situ. Reversible addition-fragmentation chain-transfer (RAFT) emulsion polymerization is utilized as one of the PISA formulations. Various factors have so far been investigated for obtaining nonspherical particles via RAFT emulsion polymerization, such as the steric structure of the shell, the glass-transition temperature (T g) of the core-forming block, and the water solubility of the core-forming monomer. This study focuses on core-forming blocks without changing the structure of the shell-forming block. In particular, we elucidate the balance between T g for the core-forming block and the water solubility of the core monomer. A series of alkyl methacrylates, such as methyl methacrylate (MMA), ethyl methacrylate (EMA), and n-propyl methacrylate (PrMA), are emulsion-polymerized in the presence of a poly[poly(ethylene glycol) methyl ether methacrylate] (PPEGMA) macromolecular chain-transfer agent via the RAFT process. The resulting in situ morphology changes to form shapes such as spheres, worms (toroids), and vesicles are systematically investigated. The properties of the core that determine whether a morphological change occurs from spheres are (i) the solubility of the core-forming monomer in water, (ii) the relationship between T g for the core-forming block and the polymerization temperature, and (iii) the hydrophobic core volume, which changes the packing parameter. These factors allow prediction of the block copolymer morphology produced during RAFT emulsion polymerization of other methacrylates such as n-butyl methacrylate (BuMA), tetrahydrofurfuryl methacrylate (THFMA) with physical properties of the homopolymer (poly(tetrahydrofurfuryl methacrylate) (PTHFMA)) between those for poly(MMA) (PMMA) and PBuMA, and 1-adamantyl methacrylate (ADMA) with low monomer solubility in water and high T g of the homopolymer (PADMA).

Abstract
BackgroundDifficult-to-treat rheumatoid arthritis (D2T RA) is defined as RA in which disease activity is uncontrolled despite the use of two or more biologics or Janus kinase inhibitors (JAKi) with different mechanisms of action (MOA).ObjectivesTo explore the optimal treatment strategy for D2T RA, we evaluated the drug retention, efficacy, and reasons for discontinuation of biologics or JAKi used for patients with D2T RA in a longitudinal multicenter cohort.MethodsRA patients with clinical disease activity index (CDAI) >10 despite the use of at least two biologics or JAKi with different MOA and further treated with biologics or JAKi were included. The drug retention rates of biologics (TNFi, IL-6Ri, and CTLA4-Ig) or JAKi were estimated at 12 months using the Kaplan-Meier method and adjusted for potential confounders (age, sex, disease duration, concomitant MTX and PSL use, and the number of switched biologics or JAKi) using Cox proportional hazards models.ResultsA total of 251 treatment courses (TCs) from 167 patients were included (TNFi: 97 TCs, IL-6Ri: 67 TCs, CTLA4-Ig: 27 TCs, JAKi: 60 TCs). Baseline characteristics showed no difference in age, sex, disease duration, ACPA positivity, CDAI, and concomitant MTX and PSL use between the four groups. Drug retention excluding non-toxic reasons and remission was significantly higher in patients treated with JAKi or IL-6Ri than in patients treated with TNFi or CTLA4-Ig (P=0.00172). Multivariate analysis using Cox proportional hazards models demonstrated that discontinuation of the drug was associated with the use of TNFi or CTLA4-Ig (HR: 3.29, 95%CI: 1.15-9.42, P=0.027) and concomitant PSL use (HR: 1.14, 95%CI: 1.04-1.26, P=0.0084). In terms of disease activity evaluated with CDAI, no difference was observed between the four groups at 3 months (P=0.90), at 6 months (P=0.77), and at 12 months (P=0.75).ConclusionIn patients with D2T RA, JAKi or IL-6Ri may have treatment advantages compared with TNFi or CTLA4-Ig.References[1] EULAR definition of difficult-to-treat rheumatoid arthritis.Nagy G, Roodenrijs NMT, Welsing PM, Kedves M, Hamar A, van der Goes MC, Kent A, Bakkers M, Blaas E, Senolt L, Szekanecz Z, Choy E, Dougados M, Jacobs JW, Geenen R, Bijlsma HW, Zink A, Aletaha D, Schoneveld L, van Riel P, Gutermann L, Prior Y, Nikiphorou E, Ferraccioli G, Schett G, Hyrich KL, Mueller-Ladner U, Buch MH, McInnes IB, van der Heijde D, van Laar JM.Ann Rheum Dis. 2021 Jan;80(1):31-35.[2] Prevalence and predictive factors of difficult-to-treat rheumatoid arthritis: the KURAMA cohort.Watanabe R, Hashimoto M, Murata K, Murakami K, Tanaka M, Ohmura K, Ito H, Matsuda S.Immunol Med. 2021 May 25:1-10.Disclosure of InterestsRyu Watanabe Speakers bureau: Eli Lilly, Mitsubishi Tanabe, Pfizer, Sanofi, AbbVie, Asahi Kasei, Eisai, Bristol-Myers Squibb, UCB Japan, Chugai, Janssen, Astellas, Nippon Shinyaku, Daiichi Sankyo, Gilead Sciences Japan, and Boehringer ingelheim., Tadashi Okano Speakers bureau: Asahi Kasei, Astellas, Abbvie, Amgen, Ayumi, Chugai, Daiichi-Sankyo, Eisai, Eli Lilly, Gilead Sciences, Janssen, Kyowa Kirin, Mitsubishi Tanabe, Novartis, Ono, Pfizer, Sanofi, Takeda, UCB, Grant/research support from: Asahi Kasei, Abbvie, Chugai, Eisai, Mitsubishi Tanabe, Shinsuke Yamada: None declared, Wataru Yamamoto: None declared, Koichi Murata Speakers bureau: Eisai Co., Ltd., Chugai Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd.; Asahi Kasei Pharma Corp.; and Mitsubishi Tanabe Pharma Co., and Daiichi Sankyo Co.

Abstract
Accurate assessment of renal function is essential for determining serum vancomycin (VCM) concentration. Creatinine clearance (Ccr)-calculated using the Cockcroft and Gault (CG) equation-can be used to evaluate renal function for determining VCM dosage. However, Ccr-based evaluation may not be an accurate representation of the renal function in the elderly. Herein, we examine the effectiveness of estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) calculated using the Berlin Initiative Study-1 (BIS1) equation, for predicting the serum VCM concentration. Herein, we retrospectively analyzed patients (aged ≥ 75 years) who had received VCM. Serum VCM concentration was predicted based on Ccr and eGFR. eGFR was calculated using the Japanese equation for eGFR (eGFRJAP), Modification of Diet in Renal Disease (MDRD) equation (eGFRMDRD), chronic kidney disease epidemiology collaboration (CKD-EPI) equation (eGFRCKD-EPI), and BIS1 equation (eGFRBIS1). The predicted serum VCM concentration was compared with the measured values. Prediction bias, accuracy, and precision were evaluated by calculating the mean prediction error (ME), mean absolute prediction error (MAE), and root mean squared prediction error (RMSE). Our results showed that the ME between the measured and the predicted values calculated using Ccr and each eGFR was the largest and smallest when calculated based on Ccr and eGFRMDRD, respectively. MAE and RMSE were the largest and smallest when calculated based on Ccr and eGFRBIS1, respectively. A significant difference was observed in the MAE associated with eGFRJAP, eGFRMDRD, and eGFRCKD-EPI compared to that associated with eGFRBIS1. In conclusion, our results suggest that the BIS1 equation might be useful for determining the VCM dosage in the elderly.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the efficacy and safety of perampanel in patients with sporadic amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (SALS). METHODS This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter, phase 2 clinical study was conducted at 12 sites. Patients with probable or definite ALS as defined by revised El Escorial criteria were enrolled. Sixty-six patients were randomly assigned (1:1:1) to receive placebo, 4 mg perampanel, or 8 mg perampanel daily for 48 weeks. Adverse events (AEs) were recorded throughout the trial period. The primary efficacy outcome was the change in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis Rating Scale-Revised (ALSFRS-R) score after 48 weeks of treatment. RESULTS One patient withdrew before starting the treatment. Of 65 patients included, 18 of 22 patients randomized to placebo (82%), 14 of 22 patients randomized to 4 mg perampanel (64%), and 7 of 21 patients randomized to 8 mg perampanel (33%) completed the trial. There was a significant difference in the change of ALSFRS-R scores [- 8.4 (95% CI - 13.9 to - 2.9); p = 0.015] between the placebo and the perampanel 8 mg group, primarily due to worsening of the bulbar subscore in the perampanel 8 mg group. Serious AEs were more frequent in the perampanel 8 mg group than in the placebo group (p = 0.0483). CONCLUSIONS Perampanel was associated with a significant decline in ALSFRS-R score and was linked to worsening of the bulbar subscore in the 8 mg group.

Abstract
More than 60 years have passed since UCLA first announced the development of an innovative asymmetric cellulose acetate reverse osmosis (RO) membrane in 1960. This innovation opened a gate to use RO for commercial use. RO is now ubiquitous in water treatment and has been used for various applications, including seawater desalination, municipal water treatment, wastewater reuse, ultra-pure water (UPW) production, and industrial process waters, etc. RO is a highly integrated system consisting of a series of unit processes: (1) intake system, (2) pretreatment, (3) RO system, (4) post-treatment, and (5) effluent treatment and discharge system. In each step, a variety of chemicals are used. Among those, sulfites (sodium bisulfite and sodium metabisulfite) have played significant roles in RO, such as dechlorination, preservatives, shock treatment, and sanitization, etc. Sulfites especially became necessary as dechlorinating agents because polyamide hollow-fiber and aromatic thin-film composite RO membranes developed in the late 1960s and 1970s were less tolerable with residual chlorine. In this review, key applications of sulfites are explained in detail. Furthermore, as it is reported that sulfites have some adverse effects on RO membranes and processes, such phenomena will be clarified. In particular, the following two are significant concerns using sulfites: RO membrane oxidation catalyzed by heavy metals and a trigger of biofouling. This review sheds light on the mechanism of membrane oxidation and triggering biofouling by sulfites. Some countermeasures are also introduced to alleviate such problems.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Robotics is now seen as part of the solution to the ageing population internationally, and is deployed in care settings. Care robots are designed to enable active ageing as well as ageing in place, with support to older persons, their families, and care professionals. The aim of this study was to understand the perceptions of stakeholders in Hong Kong and Ireland regarding the current state of affairs surrounding the use of care robots in their jurisdictions.
Methods
Semi-structured, in-depth interviews were conducted with 30 experts (15 from each jurisdiction). The participants included care professionals, service providers, researchers, and advocacy group representatives and policymakers. The questions explored their knowledge of and perceptions regarding the current use of assistive technologies, long-term care systems, and their own future vision of care provision for old age.
Results
In both jurisdictions, the use of care robots is relatively new, although many respondents were familiar with the seal robot PARO and the humanoid robot Pepper. In Hong Kong, a gerontechnology-specific exposition has become an annual feature in recent years, and the government’s investment has stepped up. In Ireland, a more general ehealth agenda has been adopted within the government’s planned care reform (Sláintecare). Older people in Hong Kong and Ireland are believed to fall through the cracks in their respective two-tier care systems, and many respondents stated that care robots are most needed in order to fill the gaps (e.g. safety monitoring, mobility support). Concerns regarding the impact of using robots included a possible reduction in human-to-human contact and deskilling of older people themselves.
Conclusion
There was a sense of urgency in both jurisdictions that more smart and digital technologies should be utilised to ease the pressures on care professionals and systems. However, a degree of optimism was noted for technological leapfrogging after the pandemic.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There is a lack of information regarding the provision of parental leave for surgical careers. This survey study aims to evaluate the experience of maternity/paternity leave and views on work-life balance globally. METHODS A 55-item online survey in 24 languages was distributed via social media as per CHERRIES guideline from February to March 2020. It explored parental leave entitlements, attitude towards leave taking, financial impact, time spent with children and compatibility of parenthood with surgical career. RESULTS Of the 1393 (male : female, 514 : 829) respondents from 65 countries, there were 479 medical students, 349 surgical trainees and 513 consultants. Consultants had less than the recommended duration of maternity leave (43.8 versus 29.1 per cent), no paid maternity (8.3 versus 3.2 per cent) or paternity leave (19.3 versus 11.0 per cent) compared with trainees. Females were less likely to have children than males (36.8 versus 45.6 per cent, P = 0.010) and were more often told surgery is incompatible with parenthood (80.2 versus 59.5 per cent, P < 0.001). Males spent less than 20 per cent of their salary on childcare and fewer than 30 hours/week with their children. More than half (59.2 per cent) of medical students did not believe a surgical career allowed work-life balance. CONCLUSION Surgeons across the globe had inadequate parental leave. Significant gender disparity was seen in multiple aspects.

Abstract
Background: We examined the severity of epistaxis in patients with hereditary haemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT) and its relationship with the performed activities of daily living. Methodology: This cross-sectional survey included 36 patients with HHT in Japan. An anonymous questionnaire survey was conducted regarding the severity of epistaxis, the measures adopted to prevent epistaxis, and the limitations in the performed activities of daily living. The latter was assessed using a visual analogue scale (VAS). The correlation between epistaxis severity and the VAS score was analysed using Spearman’s rank correlation coefficient. Results: Of the 36 participants surveyed, 94.4% had >1 episode of epistaxis/week. The mean epistaxis severity score (ESS) was 4.3 (range, 0.9–8.4). Limitations in daily life, going out (within a day), meeting with others, eating with others, and going on overnight trips were positively correlated with the ESS. To prevent nosebleeds, 44.4% and 41.7% of the participants used medications and avoided drying their nasal cavities, respectively. Conclusions: Epistaxis impacted the daily life of patients with HHT in proportion to its severity. Nonetheless, less than half of the patients used medications or took precautions. Hence, further educational activities should be considered for medical professionals and patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND COVID-19 has brought an unprecedented challenge to healthcare services. The authors' COVID-adapted pathway for suspected bowel cancer combines two quantitative faecal immunochemical tests (qFITs) with a standard CT scan with oral preparation (CT mini-prep). The aim of this study was to estimate the degree of risk mitigation and residual risk of undiagnosed colorectal cancer. METHOD Decision-tree models were developed using a combination of data from the COVID-adapted pathway (April-May 2020), a local audit of qFIT for symptomatic patients performed since 2018, relevant data (prevalence of colorectal cancer and sensitivity and specificity of diagnostic tools) obtained from literature and a local cancer data set, and expert opinion for any missing data. The considered diagnostic scenarios included: single qFIT; two qFITs; single qFIT and CT mini-prep; two qFITs and CT mini-prep (enriched pathway). These were compared to the standard diagnostic pathway (colonoscopy or CT virtual colonoscopy (CTVC)). RESULTS The COVID-adapted pathway included 422 patients, whereas the audit of qFIT included more than 5000 patients. The risk of missing a colorectal cancer, if present, was estimated as high as 20.2 per cent with use of a single qFIT as a triage test. Using both a second qFIT and a CT mini-prep as add-on tests reduced the risk of missed cancer to 6.49 per cent. The trade-off was an increased rate of colonoscopy or CTVC, from 287 for a single qFIT to 418 for the double qFIT and CT mini-prep combination, per 1000 patients. CONCLUSION Triage using qFIT alone could lead to a high rate of missed cancers. This may be reduced using CT mini-prep as an add-on test for triage to colonoscopy or CTVC.

Abstract
Edaravone, a free radical-scavenger, was approved in Japan for the treatment of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). However, the effect of the drug on renal function in ALS patients remains unclear. This study aimed to investigate renal function in ALS patients on long-term treatment with edaravone by measuring the serum estimated glomerular filtration rate based on cystatin C (eGFR-CysC).In a retrospective study, the data of ALS patients who were treated with over 10 cycles of intravenous edaravone treatment and were evaluated by eGFR-CysC before and after 10 cycles of treatment between July 2015 and June 2018 were analyzed. Then, the results were compared with those of a control ALS group that had never been treated with edaravone.There were 11 patients with ALS who received over 10 cycles of intravenous edaravone treatment. The mean interval between the first and final eGFR-CysC measurements was 18.7 ± 7.9 months. Three patients (27.3%) had >20 mL/min/1.73 m2 decrease in serum eGFR-CysC. However, no patients discontinued edaravone treatment because of renal dysfunction. The average variation rate of eGFR-CysC was not different between the long-term edaravone group (0.29 ± 1.07) and the control group (-0.34 ± 0.40).This retrospective, single-center analysis showed no clinical exacerbation of renal function in ALS patients who received long-term treatment with edaravone.

METHOD This was a multi-centre retrospective study of patients who had undergone either sacral neuromodulation (SNM) or delayed sphincter repair or sphincteroplasty (SR) as a primary surgical intervention for FI in five centres in Europe and one in the United States. The flow of patients according to the intervention, sustainability of the treatment at a minimum follow-up of 5 years, complications and requirement for further interventions were recorded. RESULTS A total of 461 patients (median age 56 years, range 24-90 years, 41 men) had either SNM or SR as an index operation during the study period [SNM 284 (61.6%), SR 177 (38.4%)]. Among SNM patients, there were 169 revisional operations (change of battery and/or lead, re-siting or removal). At the time of last follow-up 203 patients (71.4%) continued to use SNM. Among SR patients, 30 (16.9%) had complications, most notably wound infection (22, 12.4%). During follow-up 32 patients (18.1%) crossed over to SNM. Comparing two 4-year periods (2000-2003 and 2007-2010), the proportion of patients operated on who had a circumferential sphincter defect of less than 90° was 48 (68%) and 45 (46%), respectively (P = 0.03), while those who had SNM as the primary intervention increased from 29% to 89% (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION The paradigm of surgical intervention for FI has changed with increasing use of SNM.

Abstract
A kinematically complete quasifree (p,pn) experiment in inverse kinematics was performed to study the structure of the Borromean nucleus ^{17}B, which had long been considered to have a neutron halo. By analyzing the momentum distributions and exclusive cross sections, we obtained the spectroscopic factors for 1s_{1/2} and 0d_{5/2} orbitals, and a surprisingly small percentage of 9(2)% was determined for 1s_{1/2}. Our finding of such a small 1s_{1/2} component and the halo features reported in prior experiments can be explained by the deformed relativistic Hartree-Bogoliubov theory in continuum, revealing a definite but not dominant neutron halo in ^{17}B. The present work gives the smallest s- or p-orbital component among known nuclei exhibiting halo features and implies that the dominant occupation of s or p orbitals is not a prerequisite for the occurrence of a neutron halo.

Abstract
Injection of lymphokine activated killer (LAK) cells is known as useful for activation of cellular immune system. Although the effect of LAK cells has been clarified in human or mice, this effect on function of immune cells has not been examined in calves. Healthy ten Holstein calves were injected with the LAK cells 2 days after birth (LAK Group), and another eight calves were observed as controls (Control Group). All calves received the colostrum formulation on the day of birth, and then, were inoculated with a live attenuated vaccine of bovine herpesvirus (BHV)-1 at 2 (the first vaccination) and 6 (the second vaccination) weeks after birth. Peripheral blood of their dam obtained 3 weeks before calving was used for preparation of LAK cells. Blood samples were taken prior to vaccine inoculation and 3 days after the first inoculation, as well as 3 and 6 days after the second vaccination from all calves. Numbers of CD8+ and CD21+ cells increased significantly after the second vaccination in the LAK Group compared with Control Group. The present study suggested the improved effect of injecting LAK cells originated from dams on immune cells function of young calves after BHV-1 live vaccine.

Abstract
The formation of a dineutron in the ^{11}Li nucleus is found to be localized to the surface region. The experiment measured the intrinsic momentum of the struck neutron in ^{11}Li via the (p,pn) knockout reaction at 246 MeV/nucleon. The correlation angle between the two neutrons is, for the first time, measured as a function of the intrinsic neutron momentum. A comparison with reaction calculations reveals the localization of the dineutron at r∼3.6 fm. The results also support the density dependence of dineutron formation as deduced from Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov calculations for nuclear matter.

Abstract
A prodrug of levofloxacin (LVFX), cilexetil ester of LVFX (LVFX-CLX), was synthesized to examine whether the prodrug can avoid chelate formation with metal cations in the gastrointestinal tract. LVFX-CLX exhibited a 10-times higher partition coefficient than LVFX. In vitro, LVFX was precipitated by 76.1% in the presence of a 10-times higher concentration of aluminium chloride (Al3+), but LVFX-CLX was not. LVFX-CLX was rapidly hydrolyzed enzymatically by rat plasma, intestinal mucosal and liver homogenates at 37 °C, but not by pancreatic enzymes and luminal fluid. The minimum inhibitory concentration values of LVFX-CLX against S. aureus, E. coli and P. aeruginosa were far higher than that of LVFX. In rats, area under the plasma concentration-time curve from zero to 4 h (AUC0-4h) of LVFX after oral administration of LVFX-CLX was 1.34-fold higher than that after LVFX, though it did not reach significance level. Co-administration of Al3+ with LVFX and LVFX-CLX in rats decreased AUC0-4h of plasma LVFX by 75% and 60%, respectively, however, the AUC0-4h of plasma LVFX after co-administration of LVFX-CLX and Al3+ was 2.2-times higher than that after co-administration of LVFX and Al3+. These results suggested that the use of LVFX-CLX may reduce the modulation of intestinal microflora caused by LVFX and the suppressive effect of Al3+ on intestinal absorption of LVFX.

Abstract
We present a search for the direct production of a light pseudoscalar a decaying into two photons with the Belle II detector at the SuperKEKB collider. We search for the process e^{+}e^{-}→γa, a→γγ in the mass range 0.2<m_{a}<9.7 GeV/c^{2} using data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of (445±3) pb^{-1}. Light pseudoscalars interacting predominantly with standard model gauge bosons (so-called axionlike particles or ALPs) are frequently postulated in extensions of the standard model. We find no evidence for ALPs and set 95% confidence level upper limits on the coupling strength g_{aγγ} of ALPs to photons at the level of 10^{-3} GeV^{-1}. The limits are the most restrictive to date for 0.2<m_{a}<1 GeV/c^{2}.

Abstract
Since autonomic dysfunction is closely associated with autoimmune encephalitis (AE), the objective of this study was to determine the autonomic symptoms and the prevalence of anti-α3 subunit of the ganglionic-type nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (gAChRα3) antibodies in the patients with AE. We reviewed the clinical features of 19 AE patients, and specifically analyzed sera for anti-gAChRα3 antibodies using the luciferase immunoprecipitation system (LIPS) assay. Cardiovascular autonomic symptoms were found to be common in patients with AE, and hypersalivation was seen only in patients with NMDAR encephalitis. LIPS detected anti-gAChRα3 antibodies in the sera from patients with AE (5/29, 26%). This study is the first to demonstrate that clinical characteristics including autonomic symptoms of AE patients with seropositivity for gAChR autoantibodies. It will be important to verify the role of gAChR antibodies in autonomic dysfunction and brain symptoms to clarify the pathogenesis of AE.

Abstract
This European Society of Coloproctology guidance focuses on a proposed conceptual framework to resume standard service in colorectal surgery. The proposed conceptual framework is a schematic and stepwise approach including: in-depth assessment of damage to non-COVID-19-related colorectal service; the return of service (integration with the COVID-19-specific service and the existing operational continuity planning); safety arrangements in parallel with minimizing downtime; the required support for staff and patients; the aftermath of the pandemic and continued strategic planning. This will be dynamic guidance with ongoing updates using critical appraisal of emerging evidence. We will welcome input from all stakeholders (statutory organizations, healthcare professionals, public and patients). Any new questions, new data and discussion are welcome via https://www.escp.eu.com/guidelines.

Background The role of antithrombotic chemoprophylaxis in prevention of venous thromboembolism (VTE) in laparoscopic surgery for gastric and colorectal malignancies is unknown. This study compared the addition of enoxaparin following intermittent pneumatic compression (IPC) with IPC alone in patients undergoing laparoscopic surgery for gastrointestinal malignancy. Methods In this multicentre RCT, eligible patients were older than 40 years and had a WHO performance status of 0 or 1. Exclusion criteria were prescription of antiplatelet or anticoagulant drugs and history of VTE. Patients were allocated to IPC or to ICP with enoxaparin in a 1 : 1 ratio. Stratification factors included sex, location of cancer, age 61 years and over, and institution. Enoxaparin was administered on days 1–7 after surgery. Primary outcome was VTE, evaluated by multidetector CT on day 7. Results Of 448 patients randomized, 208 in the IPC group and 182 in the IPC with enoxaparin group were evaluated. VTE occurred in ten patients (4·8 per cent) in the IPC group and six (3·3 per cent) in the IPC with enoxaparin group (P = 0·453). Proximal deep vein thrombosis and/or pulmonary embolism occurred in seven patients (3·4 per cent) in the IPC group and one patient (0·5 per cent) in the IPC with enoxaparin group (P = 0·050). All VTE events were asymptomatic and non‐fatal. Bleeding occurred in 11 of 202 patients in the IPC with enoxaparin group, and one patient needed a transfusion. All bleeding events were managed by discontinuation of the drug. Conclusion IPC with enoxaparin after laparoscopic surgery for gastric and colorectal malignancies did not reduce the rate of VTE.

Abstract
Background:EULAR recommendation announced that biological disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (bDMARDs) and janus kinase inhibitors (JAKi) are considered as equivalent in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). However, we still lack reliable evidence of direct comparison between these agents’ retention, which may reflect both effectiveness and safety.Objectives:The aim of this multi-center (7 university-related hospitals), retrospective study is to clarify retention rates and reasons for discontinuation of 7 bDMARDs and tofacitinib (TOF), one of the JAKi, in both bDMARDs-naïve and bDMARDs-switched cases.Methods:This study assessed 3,897 patients and 4,415 treatment courses of with bDMARDs and TOF from 2001 to 2019 (2,737 bDMARDs-naïve patients and 1,678 bDMARDs-switched patients [59.5% switched to their second agent], female 82.3%, baseline age 57.4 years, disease duration 8.5 years; rheumatoid factor positivity 78.4%; DAS28-ESR 4.3; concomitant prednisolone [PSL] 6.1 mg/day [42.4%] and methotrexate [MTX] 8.5 mg/week [60.9%]). Treatment courses included abatacept (ABT; n=663), adalimumab (ADA; n=536), certolizumab pegol (CZP; n=226), etanercept (ETN; n=856), golimumab (GLM; n=458), infliximab (IFX; n=724), tocilizumab (TCZ; n=851), and TOF (n=101/only bDMARDs-switched cases). Reasons for discontinuation were classified into four categories by each attending physician: 1) lack of effectiveness, 2) toxic adverse events, 3) non-toxic reasons, and 4) remission. Retention rates of each discontinuation reason were estimated at 36 months using the Kaplan-Meier method and adjusted for potential clinical confounders (age, sex, disease duration, concomitant PSL and MTX, starting date and number of switched bDMARDs) using Cox proportional hazards modeling.Results:Adjusted drug retention rates for each discontinuation reason were as follows: lack of effectiveness in the bDMARDs-naïve group (from 70.8% [CZP] to 85.1% [ABT]; P=0.001 between agents) and the bDMARDs-switched group (from 52.8% [CZP] to 78.7% [TCZ]; P<0.001 between agents). Toxic adverse events in the bDMARDs-naïve group (from 86.9% [IFX] to 96.3% [ABT]; P<0.001 between agents) and the bDMARDs-switched group (from 81.1% [ADA] to 95.4% [ETN]; P=0.01 between agents). Finally, overall retention rates excluding discontinuation for non-toxic reasons or remission ranged from 64.2% (IFX) to 82.0% (ABT) (P<0.001 between agents) in the bDMARDs-naïve group (figure a) and from 44.2% (ADA) to 66.8% (TCZ) (P<0.001 between agents) in the bDMARDs-switched group (figure b).Conclusion:Remarkable differences were observed in drug retention of 7 bDMARDs and TOF between bDMARDs-naïve and bDMARDs-switched cases.Disclosure of Interests:Kosuke Ebina Grant/research support from: KE has received research grants from Abbie, Asahi-Kasei, Astellas, Chugai, Eisai, Ono Pharmaceutical, and UCB Japan., Employee of: KE is affiliated with the Department of Musculoskeletal Regenerative Medicine, Osaka University, Graduate School of Medicine, which is supported by Taisho., Speakers bureau: KE has received payments for lectures from Abbie, Asahi-Kasei, Astellas, Ayumi, Bristol-Myers Squibb, Chugai, Eisai, Eli Lilly, Janssen, Mitsubishi-Tanabe, Ono Pharmaceutical, Sanofi, and UCB Japan., Toru Hirano Grant/research support from: TH received a research grant and/or speaker fee from Astellas, Chugai, Nippon Shinyaku, Abbvie, Eisai, and Ono Pharmaceutical, Speakers bureau: TH received a research grant and/or speaker fee from Astellas, Chugai, Nippon Shinyaku, Abbvie, Eisai, and Ono Pharmaceutical, Yuichi Maeda Grant/research support from: YM received a research grant and/or speaker fee from Eli Lilly, Chugai, Pfizer, Bristol-Myers Squibb, and Mitsubishi-Tanabe, Speakers bureau: YM received a research grant and/or speaker fee from Eli Lilly, Chugai, Pfizer, Bristol-Myers Squibb, and Mitsubishi-Tanabe, Wataru Yamamoto: None declared, Motomu Hashimoto Grant/research support from: Bristol-Myers Squibb, Eisai, and Eli Lilly and Company., Speakers bureau: Bristol-Myers Squibb and Mitsubishi Tanabe Pharma., Koichi Murata Grant/research support from: KMurata belong to a department that has been financially supported by four pharmaceutical companies (Mitsubishi-Tanabe, Chugai, AYUMI and UCB Japan)., Employee of: KMurata belong to a department that has been financially supported by four pharmaceutical companies (Mitsubishi-Tanabe, Chugai, AYUMI and UCB Japan)., Speakers bureau: KMurak has received speaking fees, and/or consulting fees from Eisai Co.

Abstract
Background:It has been reported that rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients who have large joint involvement associated with higher serological inflammatory markers and more functional disability1. Moreover, a previous report showed that these patients were more difficult to achieve clinical remission. However, it remains unclear which biologics are effective in the patients with RA who have large joint involvement.Objectives:The aim of this study is to investigate the efficacy of anti-IL-6 receptor antibody (aIL-6) or TNF-inhibitor (TNFi) in the treatment of RA patients who have knee joint involvement.Methods:We enrolled the 784 patients who visited our hospitals in 2003 to 2019 and were treated with aIL-6 or TNFi more than 12 weeks. We divided the patients into 2 groups with or without knee joint involvement for further analysis. Knee joint involvement was defined as the patients had at least one swelling joint of knee at baseline. We investigated the CDAI levels at baseline and 12 weeks after the initiation of biologics.Results:Interestingly, the patients who had knee joint involvement with aIL-6 significantly ameliorated ΔCDAI (n=95, 15.0±10.8; mean±SD) compared to those with TNFi (n=148, 11.4±10.3) at 12 weeks (P=0.003). aIL-6 group consists of 95 tocilizumab treated patients. TNFi group includes 25 adalimumab, 25 certolizumab pegol, 14 etanercept, 54 golimumab and 30 infliximab treated patients. Baseline clinical characteristics of the 243 RA patients who had knee joint involvement were shown in Table 1. Mean ages, sex and disease durations were not significantly different between the two groups. Baseline CDAI levels of aIL-6 group (24.8±11.8) were slightly elevated compared to those of TNFi group (21.7 ±10.9). Multivariate analysis adjusted for age, gender and baseline CDAI levels revealed that aIL-6 significantly improved ΔCDAI levels compared to TNFi (P=0.04). By contrast, in the RA patients who had no swelling of knee joints, there was no significant difference of ΔCDAI improvement between aIL-6 group (n=156, 5.5±7.4) and TNFi group (n=385, 6.7±8.9).Table 1.Baseline clinical characteristics of 243 RA patients who had knee joint involvementaIL-6 group(n=95)TNFi group(n=148)p ValueAge (mean±SD)60.7±15.261.9±14.40.58Gender (female, %)80.079.10.97Duration (year)9.3 ±10.38.4±10.50.56DAS28ESR (mean±SD)5.3±1.25.2 ±4.80.03CDAI (mean ±SD)24.8±11.821.7 ±10.90.04MTX use, (%)45.462.20.02MTX dose (mg/day)8.7 ±3.39.0 ±3.50.61PSL use, (%)44.345.60.74PSL dose (mg/day)5.5 ±3.55.1 ±2.90.55Conclusion:Thus, these findings suggest that anti-IL-6 receptor antibody was more effective in the RA patients with knee joint involvement compared to TNF- inhibitor.References:[1]Burgers LE, et al.Ann Rheum Dis. 2018;77:e33.Disclosure of Interests:Yuichi Maeda Grant/research support from: YM received a research grant and/or speaker fee from Eli Lilly, Chugai, Pfizer, Bristol-Myers Squibb, and Mitsubishi-Tanabe, Speakers bureau: YM received a research grant and/or speaker fee from Eli Lilly, Chugai, Pfizer, Bristol-Myers Squibb, and Mitsubishi-Tanabe, Toru Hirano Grant/research support from: TH received a research grant and/or speaker fee from Astellas, Chugai, Nippon Shinyaku, Abbvie, Eisai, and Ono Pharmaceutical, Speakers bureau: TH received a research grant and/or speaker fee from Astellas, Chugai, Nippon Shinyaku, Abbvie, Eisai, and Ono Pharmaceutical, Ryota Hara Speakers bureau: RH received a speaker fee from AbbVie, Kosuke Ebina Grant/research support from: KE has received research grants from Abbie, Asahi-Kasei, Astellas, Chugai, Eisai, Ono Pharmaceutical, and UCB Japan., Employee of: KE is affiliated with the Department of Musculoskeletal Regenerative Medicine, Osaka University, Graduate School of Medicine, which is supported by Taisho., Speakers bureau: KE has received payments for lectures from Abbie, Asahi-Kasei, Astellas, Ayumi, Bristol-Myers Squibb, Chugai, Eisai, Eli Lilly, Janssen, Mitsubishi-Tanabe, Ono Pharmaceutical, Sanofi, and UCB Japan., Motomu Hashimoto Grant/research support from: Bristol-Myers Squibb, Eisai, and Eli Lilly and Company., Speakers bureau: Bristol-Myers Squibb and Mitsubishi Tanabe Pharma., Wataru Yamamoto: None declared, Kosaku Murakami Speakers bureau: AbbVie, Eisai, and Mitsubishi Tanabe Pharma., Takuya Kotani: None declared, Kenichiro Hata: None declared, Yonsu Son: None declared, Hideki Amuro: None declared, Akira Onishi Speakers bureau: AO received a speaker fee from Chugai, Ono Pharmaceutical, Eli Lilly, Mitsubishi-Tanabe, Asahi-Kasei, and Takeda, Jinno Sadao: None declared, Masaki Katayama: None declared, Atsushi Kumanogoh Grant/research support from: AK received a research grant and/or speaker fee from Mitsubishi-Tanabe, Chugai, Eisai, Asahi-Kasei, Astellas, Abbvie, Bristol-Myers Squibb, Ono Pharmaceutical, and Pfizer, Speakers bureau: AK received a research grant and/or speaker fee from Mitsubishi-Tanabe, Chugai, Eisai, Asahi-Kasei, Astellas, Abbvie, Bristol-Myers Squibb, Ono Pharmaceutical, and Pfizer

Abstract
The structure of a neutron-rich ^{25}F nucleus is investigated by a quasifree (p,2p) knockout reaction at 270A MeV in inverse kinematics. The sum of spectroscopic factors of π0d_{5/2} orbital is found to be 1.0±0.3. However, the spectroscopic factor with residual ^{24}O nucleus being in the ground state is found to be only 0.36±0.13, while those in the excited state is 0.65±0.25. The result shows that the ^{24}O core of ^{25}F nucleus significantly differs from a free ^{24}O nucleus, and the core consists of ∼35% ^{24}O_{g.s.}. and ∼65% excited ^{24}O. The result may infer that the addition of the 0d_{5/2} proton considerably changes neutron structure in ^{25}F from that in ^{24}O, which could be a possible mechanism responsible for the oxygen dripline anomaly.

Abstract
Theories beyond the standard model often predict the existence of an additional neutral boson, the Z^{'}. Using data collected by the Belle II experiment during 2018 at the SuperKEKB collider, we perform the first searches for the invisible decay of a Z^{'} in the process e^{+}e^{-}→μ^{+}μ^{-}Z^{'} and of a lepton-flavor-violating Z^{'} in e^{+}e^{-}→e^{±}μ^{∓}Z^{'}. We do not find any excess of events and set 90% credibility level upper limits on the cross sections of these processes. We translate the former, in the framework of an L_{μ}-L_{τ} theory, into upper limits on the Z^{'} coupling constant at the level of 5×10^{-2}-1 for M_{Z^{'}}≤6 GeV/c^{2}.

Abstract
Background The Endoscopic Surgical Skill Qualification System (ESSQS) was introduced in Japan to improve the quality of laparoscopic surgery. This cohort study investigated the short‐ and long‐term postoperative outcomes of colorectal cancer laparoscopic procedures performed by or with qualified surgeons compared with outcomes for unqualified surgeons. Methods All laparoscopic colorectal resections performed from 2010 to 2013 in 11 Japanese hospitals were reviewed retrospectively. The procedures were categorized as performed by surgeons with or without the ESSQS qualification and patients' clinical, pathological and surgical features were used to match subgroups using propensity scoring. Outcome measures included postoperative and long‐term results. Results Overall, 1428 procedures were analysed; 586 procedures were performed with ESSQS‐qualified surgeons and 842 were done by ESSQS‐unqualified surgeons. Upon matching, two cohorts of 426 patients were selected for comparison of short‐term results. A prevalence of rectal resection (50·3 versus 40·5 per cent; P < 0·001) and shorter duration of surgery (230 versus 238 min; P = 0·045) was reported for the ESSQS group. Intraoperative and postoperative complication and reoperation rates were significantly lower in the ESSQS group than in the non‐ESSQS group (1·2 versus 3·6 per cent, P = 0·014; 4·6 versus 7·5 per cent, P = 0·025; 1·9 versus 3·9 per cent, P = 0·023, respectively). These findings were confirmed after propensity score matching. Cox regression analysis found that non‐attendance of ESSQS‐qualified surgeons (hazard ratio 12·30, 95 per cent c.i. 1·28 to 119·10; P = 0·038) was independently associated with local recurrence in patients with stage II disease. Conclusion Laparoscopic colorectal procedures performed with ESSQS‐qualified surgeons showed improved postoperative results. Further studies are needed to investigate the impact of the qualification on long‐term oncological outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Short-term outcomes for patients undergoing contaminated complex abdominal wall reconstruction (CCAWR), including risk stratification, have not been studied in sufficiently high numbers. This study aims to develop and validate risk-stratification models for Clavien-Dindo (CD) grade ≥ 3 complications in patients undergoing CCAWR. METHODS A consecutive cohort of patients who underwent CCAWR in two European national intestinal failure centers, from January 2004 to December 2015, was identified. Data were collected retrospectively for short-term outcomes and used to develop risk models using logistic regression. A further cohort, from January 2016 to December 2017, was used to validate the models. RESULTS The development cohort consisted of 272 procedures performed in 254 patients. The validation cohort consisted of 114 patients. The cohorts were comparable in baseline demographics (mean age 58.0 vs 58.1; sex 58.8% male vs 54.4%, respectively). A multi-variate model including the presence of intestinal failure (p < 0.01) and operative time (p < 0.01) demonstrated good discrimination and calibration on validation. Models for wound and intra-abdominal complications were also developed, including pre-operative immunosuppression (p = 0.05), intestinal failure (p = 0.02), increasing operative time (p = 0.04), increasing number of anastomoses (p = 0.01) and the number of previous abdominal operations (p = 0.02). While these models showed reasonable ability to discriminate patients on internal assessment, they were not found to be accurate on external validation. CONCLUSION Acceptable short-term outcomes after CCAWR are demonstrated. A robust model for the prediction of CD ≥ grade 3 complications has been developed and validated. This model is available online at www.smbari.co.uk/smjconv2.

Abstract
The isotopic production cross sections for the reactions of 136Xe induced by proton, deuteron and carbon at 168 MeV/u were obtained by using the inverse kinematics technique at RIKEN Radioactive Isotope Beam Factory. The target dependence of the cross sections was investigated systematically. It was found that for the light-mass products, the cross sections on carbon are larger than those on deuteron and proton. The measured cross sections on proton were compared with the previous data at higher reaction energies to study the energy dependence. The experimental results were compared with the theoretical calculations including both the intranuclear cascade and evaporation processes using PHITS and with the EPAX and SPACS empirical parameterizations.

Abstract
Facile direct radical homopolymerization of vinyl ethers without a hydroxy group was achieved up to near full conversion. This polymerization was conducted in water suspension in the presence of lithium hydroxide using a thermally triggered azo-initiator of dimethyl 2,2'-azobis(2-methylpropionate). In the polymerization system, appropriate hydrogen bonding and cation-π interactions under basic conditions are keys to the successful direct radical homopolymerization. The hydrogen bonding between water and vinyl ether oxygen reduces the reactivity of the growing radical, thus suppressing unfavorable side reactions such as β-scission. In addition, Li+ interacts with the oxygen and the vinyl group of vinyl ethers. The vinyl ether tends to be "activated" and the polymerization can be facilitated. Based on the results of free radical polymerization of vinyl ethers, controlled polymerization was also accomplished using the appropriate dithiocarbamate RAFT agent in view of the solubilities of the radical leaving group.

Abstract
Background Management of anal fistula (AF) remains challenging with many controversies. The purpose of this study was to explore current surgical practice in the management of AF with a focus on technical variations among surgeons. Methods An online survey was conducted by inviting all surgeons and physicians on the membership directory of European Society of Coloproctology and American Society of Colon and Rectal Surgeons. An invitation was extended to others via social media. The survey had 74 questions exploring diagnostic and surgical techniques. Results In March 2018, 3572 physicians on membership directory were invited to take part in the study 510 of whom (14%) responded to the survey. Of these respondents, 492 (96%) were surgeons. Respondents were mostly colorectal surgeons (84%) at consultant level (84%), age ≥ 40 years (64%), practicing in academic (53%) or teaching (30%) hospitals, from the USA (36%) and Europe (34%). About 80% considered fistulotomy as the gold standard treatment for simple fistulas. Endorectal advancement flap was performed using partial- (42%) or full-thickness (44%) flaps. Up to 38% of surgeons performed ligation of the intersphincteric fistula tract (LIFT) sometimes with technical variations. Geographic and demographic differences were found in both the diagnostic and therapeutic approaches to AF. Declared rates of recurrence and fecal incontinence with these techniques were variable and did not correlate with surgeons’ experience. Only 1–4% of surgeons were confident in performing the most novel sphincter-preserving techniques in patients with Crohn’s disease. Conclusions Profound technical variations exist in surgical management of AF, making it difficult to reproduce and compare treatment outcomes among different centers.
