Abstract
AIMS We conducted a pooled analysis of four randomised controlled trials and a non-trial retrospective dataset to study the changes in serum prostate-specific antigen (PSA) concentrations during treatment and its impact on survival in men treated with docetaxel for metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer. We also compared the outcomes and pre-treatment prognostic factors between trial and non-trial patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS Data were obtained from four randomised controlled trials and a non-trial cohort from a tertiary cancer centre. The PSA kinetics covariates chosen were absolute value (PSAT), best percentage change (BPCH) and tumour growth rate (K). The association between the covariates collected and overall survival was assessed within a Cox proportional hazards model. How well a covariate captured the difference between trial and non-trial patients was assessed by reporting on models with or without trial status as a covariate. RESULTS We reviewed individual datasets of 2282 patients. The median overall survival for trial patients was 20.4 (95% confidence interval 19.6-22.2) months and for the non-trial cohort was 12.4 (10.7-14.7) months (P < 0.001). Of the pre-treatment factors, we found that only lactate dehydrogenase fully captured the difference in prognosis between the trial and non-trial cohorts. All PSA kinetic metrics appeared to be prognostic in both the trial and non-trial patients. However, the effect size was reduced in non-trial versus trial patients (interaction P < 0.001). Of the time-dependent covariates, we found that BPCH best captured the difference between trial and non-trial patient prognosis. CONCLUSIONS The analysis presented here highlights how data from open-source trial databases can be combined with emerging clinical practice databases to assess differences between trial versus non-trial patients for particular treatments. These results highlight the importance of developing prognostic models using both pre-treatment and time-dependent biomarkers of new treatments.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Crohn’s disease (CD), a form of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a chronic, immune mediated condition characterized by gastrointestinal inflammation. Approximately 25% of CD patients have pharmacologically refractory disease, in which stem cell therapy has been shown to play a role.
Aims
A case series was performed to analyze the efficacy of autologous bone marrow transplantation (ABMT) for refractory CD in British Columbia(B.C).
Methods
A chart review was conducted on patients who had undergone ABMT for treatment refractory CD between 2001 to 2021 in B.C. Demographic, clinical, laboratory and endoscopic data was collected.
Results
Case details are summarized in Table 1. 3 patients(2 female and one male) were included. All patients failed conventional therapies prior to ABMT. 2 patients underwent surgical intervention (colectomy with ileostomy) prior to ABMT. Average time from diagnosis to ABMT was 8.83 + 6.6 years. All 3 patients received standard myeloablative therapy. There were no intestinal complications post ABMT. 6 months post-ABMT transplant, all 3 patients showed significant improvement, with CDAI scores <150. Endoscopic assessment post-ABMT revealed endoscopic remission in 2 of the 3 patients. 2 of the 3 patients were in clinical remission at 12 months follow up. 1 patient relapsed and required further immunosuppressive therapy. This patient was trialed on thalidomide at 15 months post-ABMT and ultimately passed away 18 months post-ABMT from an unrelated cause. 10 years post-transplant, the remaining 2 patients remain in clinical and endoscopic remission with CDAI scores <150.
Conclusions
Despite medical and surgical therapeutic advances, a subset of CD patients develop refractive disease associated with significant morbidity and mortality. In this population, there is increasing evidence in support of stem cell therapy as a treatment modality, with acute mortality less than 5% for patients with malignancy driven primarily by infectious complications and treatment-related toxicity. Clinical trials are currently underway to evaluate ABMT in CD. This case series presents the only Canadian data to date on the use of ABMT for refractory CDs and their subsequent follow up.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Diarrhea in renal transplant recipients may be due to infection, medication induced colitis and post-transplant lymphoproliferative disease. Uncommonly a subset of these children develop denovo inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), despite being already immunosuppressed. Paucity of literature in the pediatric population has been noted.
Aims
To describe the clinical presentation, investigations and response to treatment in a cohort of children diagnosed with IBD post renal transplant
Methods
Patients diagnosed with IBD post renal transplant between January 1 - October 1, 2021 at BC Children’s Hospital were identified. Medical history, symptoms at presentation, histological characteristics, results of investigations and response to treatment were reviewed
Results
Data of 3 children were collected. Ages of the children were 11, 16 and 17 years (2 female). All patients had bloody diarrhea, abdominal pain and weight loss for 1 to 2 months. IBD diagnosis was made 8, 7 and 4 years respectively post renal transplant. All children were on maintenance immunosuppression with prednisone, MMF and tacrolimus. Bacterial, viral and parasitic causes were ruled out by relevant studies. All patients had negative anti-tissue transglutaminase.
Patient 1 (transplanted for renal dysplasia) was diagnosed with Crohn disease involving the antrum, ileum, and colon with rectal sparing. Fecal calprotectin (FC) was 1742 ug/g, CRP elevated at 56mg/L. Histology showed focally active chronic gastritis and changes in ileum with cryptitis and crypt dropout. The colon had features of moderate chronic active colitis with focal severe ulceration in the rectum. The patient achieved clinical remission on treatment with methylprednisolone, then started on vedolizumab in context of rising BK virus titre.
Patient 2 (transplanted for focal segmental glomerulosclerosis) was diagnosed with indeterminate colitis involving the IC valve and scattered colonic ulcers. FC was 674 ug/g and CRP and ESR were normal. Histology showed normal ileum, moderate active chronic changes in colon and rectal sparing. Clinical remission was achieved with oral mesalamine.
Patient 3 (transplanted for Bardet-Biedl syndrome) was diagnosed with indeterminate colitis with a colonoscopy that showed patchy colonic erythema and normal ileum. FC was 966 ug/g, and CRP and ESR were normal. Histology showed patchy chronic active colitis and mild active ileitis. Clinical remission was achieved with oral and rectal mesalamine.
Conclusions
Denovo IBD occurs in children post renal transplant and must be considered in the differential for ongoing diarrhea in these patients. It can be a challenge to distinguish between IBD and other causes of diarrhea. The patients in this series entered clinical remission in a short period of time. Further exploration of the pathogenesis of IBD in these immunosuppressed patients would be valuable

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Severe Acute Respiratory Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) was identified in late 2019, spreading to over 200 countries and resulting in almost two million deaths worldwide. The emergence of safe and effective vaccines provides a route out of the pandemic, with vaccination uptake of 75-90% needed to achieve population protection. Vaccine hesitancy is problematic for vaccine rollout; global reports suggest only 73% of the population may agree to being vaccinated. As a result, there is an urgent need to develop equitable and accessible interventions to address vaccine hesitancy at the population level. STUDY DESIGN & Method: We report the development of a scalable digital intervention seeking to address COVID-19 vaccine hesitancy and enhance uptake of COVID-19 vaccines in the United Kingdom. Guided by motivational interviewing (MI) principles, the intervention includes a series of therapeutic dialogues addressing 10 key concerns of vaccine-hesitant individuals. Development of the intervention occurred linearly across four stages. During stage 1, we identified common reasons for COVID-19 vaccine hesitancy through analysis of existing survey data, a rapid systematic literature review, and public engagement workshops. Stage 2 comprised qualitative interviews with medical, immunological, and public health experts. Rapid content and thematic analysis of the data provided evidence-based responses to common vaccine concerns. Stage 3 involved the development of therapeutic dialogues through workshops with psychological and digital behaviour change experts. Dialogues were developed to address concerns using MI principles, including embracing resistance and supporting self-efficacy. Finally, stage 4 involved digitisation of the dialogues and pilot testing with members of the public. DISCUSSION The digital intervention provides an evidence-based approach to addressing vaccine hesitancy through MI principles. The dialogues are user-selected, allowing exploration of relevant issues associated with hesitancy in a non-judgmental context. The text-based content and digital format allow for rapid modification to changing information and scalability for wider dissemination.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Infliximab is used to induce and maintain remission of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Pulmonary abnormalities in IBD are rare, but comprise airway, parenchymal and interstitial lung complications. Pulmonary adverse effects reported after Infliximab include tuberculosis reactivation, invasive aspergillosis, interstitial pneumonitis, pulmonary oedema and alveolar hemorrhage.
Aims
Four cases previously reported associate Infliximab to eosinophilic pneumonitis. However, this is the first in pediatrics.
Methods
Case report of an adolescent female with IBD and a rare adverse reaction to Infliximab
Results
Our patient was diagnosed with ulcerative pancolitis, Mayo 2, initially treated with 5-ASA. Five months into therapy she was switched to azathioprine and Infliximab (10mg/kg every 8 weeks) due to worsening disease. She attained and maintained clinical and biochemical remission for the next 1.5 years. Azathioprine was stopped at the patient’s request. One month later, she presented with cough and nasal congestion but was afebrile. Peripheral eosinophilia was noted. Salbutamol and steroid inhalers were started, without improvement. She was admitted to hospital due to progressive cough, shortness of breath, and wheezing. Physical examination was otherwise unremarkable. Pulmonary function test showed FVC of 69%, FEV1 of 45% with bronchodilator effect of 12% and a FEV1/FVC of 59. Her blood work showed eosinophilia (4.42 x109/L) and an elevated IgE (4596 ug/L). Serum-specific IgE for Aspergillus was positive; but skin testing was negative. An X-ray showed marked bilateral interstitial thickening in the mid and lower zones. Chest CT showed extensive bronchiectasis with bronchial mucous plugging. A bronchoscopy with bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) reported marked eosinophilia, negative for mycobacterium, bacterial and fungal growth. Other infectious and autoimmune etiologies were ruled out. She responded successfully to high-dose prednisone (50 mg/day). At discharge, symptoms had improved, and her pulmonary function tests were normal (FEV1 of 95% predicted and FEV1/FVC 84). Upon steroid taper, she relapsed in pulmonary symptoms, eosinophilia, as well as a flare of her IBD. Reinduction with steroids resolved her symptoms and eosinophilia. Due to her loss of response to Infliximab and pulmonary, she was switched to Vedolizumab with good response. After stopping Infliximab her lung function improved significantly (FVC of 96% predicted and FEV1 of 98% predicted) and has remained so. Peripheral eosinophilia dropped to 0.2 x109/L. Her IBD is currently in remission without any respiratory symptoms.
Conclusions
Eosinophilic pneumonitis can be a complication of Infliximab. Our patient had a delayed presentation of respiratory symptoms, 16 months after a satisfactory response to Infliximab. Although responsive to steroids, she ultimately needed to be switched to another immunosuppressive agent.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Increased infliximab (IFX) utilization has generated higher drug expenditures and cost burden to the healthcare system. The expiration of the IFX originator Remicade patent led to the addition of biosimilar agents to the drug market that may reduce drug expenditures. In British Columbia, Pharmacare’s 2019 biosimilar initiative mandated all pediatric inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) patients on Remicade to switch to the biosimilar Renflexis. To date, there is limited pediatric IBD data demonstrating that switching from IFX originator to IFX biosimilar CT-P13 is safe and effective, and no data on switching to Renflexis.
Aims
To determine the proportion of patients remaining on Renflexis 6 months after switch from originator IFX. The secondary aims are to determine the proportion of patients remaining in clinical and biochemical remission after switch.
Methods
In this prospective, longitudinal observation single-center study, all children with Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis receiving maintenance IFX originator therapy were switched to Renflexis by May 15th 2020. Baseline demographics, concomitant therapy, clinical disease indices (wPCDAI, PUCAI), growth data, blood work, fecal calprotectin and IFX drug levels were collected at baseline and prospectively from 6 months after the switch. All data are presented as median and interquartile range.
Results
A total of 139 children (110 CD, 25 UC and 4 IBDU; Median age 16.2 (3.7) years) with a median IFX originator duration of 42.7 (35.1) months before switching to Renflexis were included. 137/139 (99%) of patients remained on Renflexis at study end. The proportion of children in clinical remission from baseline to 6 months post switch was unchanged (133/139 (95.7%) vs. 130/132 (98.5%), p=0.17). There was no significant change pre and post switch in median CRP (<5 (0) mg/L vs <5 (0) mg/L, p=0.26) or fecal calprotectin (72.5 (144.2) ug/g vs. 65.5 (140.0) ug/g, p=0.87). There was no significant change pre and post switch in the proportion of patients with normal CRP (<5 mg/L) (89/103 (86.4%) vs 89/98 (90.8%), p=0.33) or normal fecal calprotectin (<250 ug/g)(91/112 (81.2%) vs 51/63 (80.9%), p=0.60). There was no significant change pre and post switch in IFX trough level (15.5 (12.3) ug/mL vs 17.5 (12.9) ug/mL, p=0.42). 2 patients had antibodies to IFX after switching. Safety profile is improved with adverse events in 38/139 (27.3%) children on IFX originator vs. 11/139 (7.91%) children on Renflexis for 6 months.
Conclusions
Pediatric IBD patients can be successfully switched from IFX originator to biosimilar Renflexis during maintenance without affecting efficacy, immunogenicity or safety in the short term.

Abstract
ABSTRACT In England and Wales, Public Health England applies whole genome sequencing to cultures of Listeria monocytogenes recovered from human cases of listeriosis, foods, and food production environments. Following the routine inspection of a small retailer in February and March 2016, two unopened packs of cooked chicken produced by the same manufacturer were found to be contaminated with L. monocytogenes at levels of 340 and 20 CFU/g. A public recall of this product was issued in March 2016. Early in 2017, a less than five single-nucleotide polymorphism single-linkage cluster was detected between the L. monocytogenes isolates from the two cooked chicken products and cultures from five cases of human listeriosis in England and Scotland with onsets of illness between March 2016 and February 2017. Epidemiological data provided further supportive evidence that this cluster was an outbreak linked to a manufacturer of cooked chicken whose products were supplied to the small retailer that initiated the outbreak investigation. Unrelated to this outbreak, 34 L. monocytogenes isolates recovered from routine food monitoring of 2,007 samples of cooked chicken during 2013 to 2017 were analyzed by whole genome sequencing. Previously undetected fewer than five single-nucleotide polymorphism single-linkage clusters were identified between cultures from cooked chicken and with those from two clusters and two sporadic cases of human listeriosis that were consistent with foodborne transmission. This analysis identified linkage of L. monocytogenes clusters within specific food chains more readily than traditional manual tracing. Linking of data associated with L. monocytogenes cultures from cases of listeriosis with those from unrelated food testing is a unique source of information for communicable disease risk assessment, epidemiological studies, and disease prevention and control. This report provides further evidence that should act as a reminder of the association between cooked chicken consumption and human listeriosis. HIGHLIGHTS

Perioperative intravenous contrast administration and the incidence of acute kidney injury after major gastrointestinal surgery: prospective, multicentre cohort study. Br J Surg 2020; 107:1023-1032.

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

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To develop a core outcome set for endometriosis. DESIGN Consensus development study. SETTING International. POPULATION One hundred and sixteen healthcare professionals, 31 researchers and 206 patient representatives. METHODS Modified Delphi method and modified nominal group technique. RESULTS The final core outcome set includes three core outcomes for trials evaluating potential treatments for pain and other symptoms associated with endometriosis: overall pain; improvement in the most troublesome symptom; and quality of life. In addition, eight core outcomes for trials evaluating potential treatments for infertility associated with endometriosis were identified: viable intrauterine pregnancy confirmed by ultrasound; pregnancy loss, including ectopic pregnancy, miscarriage, stillbirth and termination of pregnancy; live birth; time to pregnancy leading to live birth; gestational age at delivery; birthweight; neonatal mortality; and major congenital abnormalities. Two core outcomes applicable to all trials were also identified: adverse events and patient satisfaction with treatment. CONCLUSIONS Using robust consensus science methods, healthcare professionals, researchers and women with endometriosis have developed a core outcome set to standardise outcome selection, collection and reporting across future randomised controlled trials and systematic reviews evaluating potential treatments for endometriosis. TWEETABLE ABSTRACT: @coreoutcomes for future #endometriosis research have been developed @jamesmnduffy.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: A high quality programmed cell death ligand-1 (PD-L1) diagnostic may help to identify patients (pts) most likely to respond to anti-PD-L1/programmed cell death-1 (PD-1) therapy. Here we describe a PD-L1 immunohistochemical (IHC) diagnostic test developed for urothelial carcinoma (UC) pts treated with durvalumab.
Methods: The IHC assay uses an anti-human PD-L1 rabbit mAb optimized for detection of both tumor cell (TC) and tumor-associated immune cell (IC) PD-L1 expression with the OptiView DAB IHC Detection Kit on the automated VENTANA BenchMark ULTRA platform. The assay was validated for intended use in UC formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded samples in a series of studies that addressed sensitivity, specificity, robustness and precision and implemented in Study CD-ON-MEDI4736-1108 (NCT01693562). Pts were evaluated using the VENTANA PD-L1 (SP263) Assay at a prespecified PD-L1 expression cut-off. Efficacy was analyzed in pts with PD-L1 low/negative (defined as TC <25% and IC <25%) UC and in pts with PD-L1 high (defined as TC ≥25% or IC ≥25%) UC.
Results: The VENTANA PD-L1 (SP263) Assay met all the predefined acceptance criteria (average positive agreement and average negative agreement >85%), showing analytical specificity, sensitivity and precision. It demonstrated ≥97% and ≥85% inter-reader precision agreement for TC and IC respectively. For intra-reader precision, it demonstrated >96% and >87% agreement for TC and IC respectively. For intra-day performance, the assay demonstrated ≥96% agreement for TC and IC and for inter-day performance, it demonstrated ≥98% and 100% agreement for TC and IC respectively. Precision studies for inter-antibody lot, inter-detection kit lot and intra-platform demonstrated >97% agreement for both TC and IC. Inter-laboratory testing was performed at 3 external laboratories and demonstrated an overall agreement rate of 92.3%. The VENTANA PD-L1 (SP263) Assay was implemented in Study CD-ON-MEDI4736-1108 and durvalumab demonstrated clinical activity and durability of response in both PD-L1 high and PD-L1 low/negative subgroups, yet with different response rates. In addition, given the high negative predictive value of the assay, it is especially helpful in evaluating the likelihood of response to durvalumab; pts who were classified as PD-L1 high with the VENTANA PD-L1 (SP263) Assay tended to have a higher objective response rate per RECIST v1.1 than pts who were PD-L1 low/negative.
Conclusions: These data show that determination of PD-L1 expression in TC and IC in UC pts using the VENTANA PD-L1 (SP263) Assay is precise and highly reproducible and highlight the utility of the assay in a clinical setting. The VENTANA SP263 Assay is especially helpful in informing pts and physicians on the likelihood of response to durvalumab, but not for the purpose of restricting treatment to only PD-L1 high pts.

Abstract
PURPOSE Cisplatin/5-fluorouracil (5-FU) is an accepted palliative chemotherapy treatment for head and neck squamous cell carcinoma, improving quality of life but not overall survival. Capecitabine in place of 5-FU removes the morbidity of an infusional regime with potential benefit in patient well-being. This study looks at outcomes for cisplatin plus capecitabine (PX) outside of a trial setting. METHODS Consecutive patients receiving this treatment in a single centre were retrospectively analysed. Cisplatin (mean dose 75 mg/m²) was given on day 1 of a 3-week cycle and capecitabine (mean dose 808 mg/m² twice daily) on days 1-14, for up to 6 cycles. RESULTS Sixty-five patients (median age 58.6 years) received a median of 4 cycles of chemotherapy. The overall response rate was 30.7%, with a median overall survival of 7.3 months. Treatment was well tolerated with a 10.7% grade 3 and a 1.5% grade 4 neutropenia rate, with no other grade 4 toxicities. One patient died of neutropenic sepsis whilst on treatment. Twenty-seven percent of patients stopped treatment early due to chemotherapy-related side effects. CONCLUSION PX is well tolerated outside the trial setting with outcomes similar to historical published literature. Ease of administration and benefit to patient convenience make it an attractive alternative to standard palliative treatment.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To describe fracture rates, back pain, and health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in postmenopausal women with osteoporosis and prior bisphosphonate therapy, treated with teriparatide for up to 18 months and followed up for a further 18 months. DESIGN Prospective, multinational, and observational study. METHODS Data on prior bisphosphonate use, clinical fractures, back pain visual analog scale (VAS), and HRQoL (EQ-5D) were collected over 36 months. Fracture data were summarized in 6-month intervals and analyzed using logistic regression with repeated measures. Changes from baseline in back pain VAS and EQ-VAS were analyzed using a repeated measures model. RESULTS Of the 1581 enrolled patients with follow-up data, 1161 (73.4%) had a history of prior bisphosphonate use (median duration: 36 months). Of them, 169 (14.6%) sustained ≥1 fracture during 36-month follow-up. Adjusted odds of fracture were significantly decreased at each 6-month interval compared with the first 6 months of teriparatide treatment: 37% decrease in the 12 to <18 months period during teriparatide treatment (P=0.03) and a 76% decrease in the 12- to 18-month period after teriparatide was discontinued (P<0.001). Significant reductions in back pain and improvement in HRQoL were observed. CONCLUSIONS Postmenopausal women with severe osteoporosis previously treated with bisphosphonates had a significant reduction in the incidence of fractures compared with the first 6 months of therapy, a reduction in back pain and an improvement in HRQoL during up to 18 months of teriparatide treatment. These outcomes were still evident for at least 18 months after teriparatide was discontinued. The results should be interpreted in the context of an uncontrolled, observational study in a routine clinical setting.

Abstract
UNLABELLED In this observational study in postmenopausal women with severe osteoporosis, the incidence of fractures was decreased during 18 months of teriparatide treatment with no evidence of further change in the subsequent 18-month post-teriparatide period when most patients took other osteoporosis medications. Fracture reduction was accompanied by reductions in back pain. INTRODUCTION To describe fracture outcomes and back pain in postmenopausal women with severe osteoporosis during 18 months of teriparatide treatment and 18 months post-teriparatide in normal clinical practice. METHODS The European Forsteo Observational Study (EFOS) was a prospective, multinational, observational study. Data on incident clinical fractures and back pain (100 mm Visual Analogue Scale [VAS] and questionnaire) were collected. Fracture data were summarised in 6-month intervals and analysed using logistic regression with repeated measures. Changes from baseline in back pain VAS were analysed using a repeated measures model. RESULTS A total of 208 (13.2%) of 1,576 patients sustained 258 fractures during 36 months of follow-up: 34% were clinical vertebral fractures and 66% non-vertebral fractures. The adjusted odds of fracture were reduced during teriparatide treatment and there was no evidence of further change in the 18-month post-teriparatide period, during which 63.3% patients took bisphosphonates. A 74% decrease in the adjusted odds of fracture in the 30- to <36-month period compared with the first 6-month period was observed (p < 0.001). Back pain decreased during teriparatide treatment and this decrease was sustained after teriparatide discontinuation. Adjusted mean back pain VAS decreased by 26.3 mm after 36 months (p < 0.001) from baseline mean of 57.8 mm. CONCLUSIONS In a real-life clinical setting, the risk of fracture decreased during teriparatide treatment, with no evidence of further change after teriparatide was discontinued. The changes in back pain seen during treatment were maintained for at least 18 months after teriparatide discontinuation. These results should be interpreted in the context of the design of an observational study.

Abstract
UNLABELLED We report the changes in biochemical markers of bone formation during the first 6 months of teriparatide therapy in postmenopausal women with osteoporosis according to previous antiresorptive treatment. Prior therapy does not adversely affect the response to teriparatide treatment. Similar bone markers levels are reached after 6 months of treatment. INTRODUCTION The response of biochemical markers of bone turnover with teriparatide therapy in subjects who have previously received osteoporosis drugs is not fully elucidated. We examined biochemical markers of bone formation in women with osteoporosis treated with teriparatide and determined: (1) whether the response is associated with prior osteoporosis therapy, (2) which marker shows the best performance for detecting a response to therapy, and (3) the correlations between early changes in bone markers and subsequent bone mineral density (BMD) changes after 24 months of teriparatide. METHODS We conducted a prospective, open-label, 24-month study at 95 centers in 10 countries in 758 postmenopausal women with established osteoporosis (n = 181 treatment-naïve) who had at least one post-baseline bone marker determination. Teriparatide (20 μg/day) was administered for up to 24 months. We measured procollagen type I N-terminal propeptide (PINP), bone-specific alkaline phosphatase (b-ALP), and total alkaline phosphatase (t-ALP) at baseline, 1 and 6 months, and change in BMD at the lumbar spine, total hip and femoral neck from baseline to 24 months. RESULTS Significant increases in formation markers occurred after 1 month of teriparatide regardless of prior osteoporosis therapy. The absolute increase at 1 month was lower in previously treated versus treatment-naïve patients, but after 6 months all groups reached similar levels. PINP showed the best signal-to-noise ratio. Baseline PINP correlated positively and significantly with BMD response at 24 months. CONCLUSIONS This study suggests that the long-term responsiveness of bone formation markers to teriparatide is not affected in subjects previously treated with antiresorptive drugs.

Abstract
We report on an all-sky search with the LIGO detectors for periodic gravitational waves in the frequency range 50-1100 Hz and with the frequency's time derivative in the range -5 x 10{-9}-0 Hz s{-1}. Data from the first eight months of the fifth LIGO science run (S5) have been used in this search, which is based on a semicoherent method (PowerFlux) of summing strain power. Observing no evidence of periodic gravitational radiation, we report 95% confidence-level upper limits on radiation emitted by any unknown isolated rotating neutron stars within the search range. Strain limits below 10{-24} are obtained over a 200-Hz band, and the sensitivity improvement over previous searches increases the spatial volume sampled by an average factor of about 100 over the entire search band. For a neutron star with nominal equatorial ellipticity of 10{-6}, the search is sensitive to distances as great as 500 pc.

Abstract
We report on an all-sky search with the LIGO detectors for periodic gravitational waves in the frequency range 50-1100 Hz and with the frequency's time derivative in the range -5 x 10{-9}-0 Hz s{-1}. Data from the first eight months of the fifth LIGO science run (S5) have been used in this search, which is based on a semicoherent method (PowerFlux) of summing strain power. Observing no evidence of periodic gravitational radiation, we report 95% confidence-level upper limits on radiation emitted by any unknown isolated rotating neutron stars within the search range. Strain limits below 10{-24} are obtained over a 200-Hz band, and the sensitivity improvement over previous searches increases the spatial volume sampled by an average factor of about 100 over the entire search band. For a neutron star with nominal equatorial ellipticity of 10{-6}, the search is sensitive to distances as great as 500 pc.

Abstract
We report on an all-sky search with the LIGO detectors for periodic gravitational waves in the frequency range 50-1100 Hz and with the frequency's time derivative in the range -5 x 10{-9}-0 Hz s{-1}. Data from the first eight months of the fifth LIGO science run (S5) have been used in this search, which is based on a semicoherent method (PowerFlux) of summing strain power. Observing no evidence of periodic gravitational radiation, we report 95% confidence-level upper limits on radiation emitted by any unknown isolated rotating neutron stars within the search range. Strain limits below 10{-24} are obtained over a 200-Hz band, and the sensitivity improvement over previous searches increases the spatial volume sampled by an average factor of about 100 over the entire search band. For a neutron star with nominal equatorial ellipticity of 10{-6}, the search is sensitive to distances as great as 500 pc.

Abstract
We present a LIGO search for short-duration gravitational waves (GWs) associated with soft gamma ray repeater (SGR) bursts. This is the first search sensitive to neutron star f modes, usually considered the most efficient GW emitting modes. We find no evidence of GWs associated with any SGR burst in a sample consisting of the 27 Dec. 2004 giant flare from SGR 1806-20 and 190 lesser events from SGR 1806-20 and SGR 1900+14. The unprecedented sensitivity of the detectors allows us to set the most stringent limits on transient GW amplitudes published to date. We find upper limit estimates on the model-dependent isotropic GW emission energies (at a nominal distance of 10 kpc) between 3x10;{45} and 9x10;{52} erg depending on waveform type, detector antenna factors and noise characteristics at the time of the burst. These upper limits are within the theoretically predicted range of some SGR models.
