Abstract
INTRODUCTION Dementia is now responsible for the greatest burden of disease of any chronic illness in older Australians. Rural and remote communities bear the impacts of this disproportionately. Additional training and education for healthcare staff to support people living with dementia is needed. OBJECTIVE The objective of this scoping review was to map and synthesise the evidence related to barriers and enablers of accessing dementia training for Australian healthcare workers located in rural and remote areas. DESIGN This scoping review systematically searched multiple databases in January 2023 for peer-reviewed literature on the topic. Reviewers used Covidence to screen titles and abstracts of located sources, and to screen full-text articles. FINDINGS From 187 articles screened, seven peer-reviewed journal articles were included in the final data analysis; all were from Australia or Canada. The most common barrier described was low staffing, precluding release of staff for dementia training. Enablers to participation in dementia training were availability of online training programs, as well as training providers collaborating with end users to ensure the training met their learning needs. DISCUSSION This review provides evidence of barriers and enablers specific to rural and remote healthcare workers accessing dementia training. It also explores other approaches to training that have been trialled successfully in different settings. CONCLUSION Addressing the identified barriers and enablers may assist in developing training approaches appropriate for existing staff, and in meeting training needs for the future workforce.

Assessment and management of delirium in a tertiary hospital-Improvements in cognitive screening and use of non-pharmacological strategies with a multidisciplinary approach. Australas J Ageing 2024; 43:175-182.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This series of audits aimed to determine current best practice in delirium management in a tertiary teaching hospital and to identify strategies to improve the quality of care in delirium with a focus on prevention. METHODS We completed a series of audits following the formation of the Cognitive Impairment Reference Group, a multidisciplinary team that was created to implement delirium management guidelines and monitor compliance. Audit 1 focused on antipsychotic use in patients aged 66 years and older. Audit 2 reviewed delirium care in the Acute Medical Ward. Audit 3 included ethnographic data and investigated the use of non-pharmacological methods to prevent and manage delirium in the Geriatric Ward. Two years on, Audit 4 is a repeat of Audit 1. RESULTS There were improved rates of cognitive screening between Audits 2 and 3 from 65% n = 40 to 86% n = 102, respectively. Most patients had one form of non-pharmacological strategy in place to prevent delirium however few had a multicomponent approach. Fewer patients were prescribed benzodiazepines alongside antipsychotics 28.57% n = 35 in Audit 1 compared to Audit 4 12.5% n = 32. CONCLUSIONS Improved quality of care in delirium management is achievable via a co-ordinated multidisciplinary approach. These audits demonstrated improvements in both rates of cognitive screening, and use of non-pharmacological strategies prior to antipsychotic medication use and better adherence to guidelines for antipsychotic prescribing. Areas for further development in delirium prevention include the uptake of screening and individualised non-pharmacological strategies.

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

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

Abstract
The abundance of Lp(a) protein holds significant implications for the risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD), which is directly impacted by the copy number (CN) of KIV-2, a 5.5 kbp sub-region. KIV-2 is highly polymorphic in the population and accurate analysis is challenging. In this study, we present the DRAGEN KIV-2 CN caller, which utilizes short reads. Data across 166 WGS show that the caller has high accuracy, compared to optical mapping and can further phase ~50% of the samples. We compared KIV-2 CN numbers to 24 previously postulated KIV-2 relevant SNVs, revealing that many are ineffective predictors of KIV-2 copy number. Population studies, including USA-based cohorts, showed distinct KIV-2 CN, distributions for European-, African-, and Hispanic-American populations and further underscored the limitations of SNV predictors. We demonstrate that the CN estimates correlate significantly with the available Lp(a) protein levels and that phasing is highly important.

Abstract
Mental health services are increasingly incorporating the views and expertise of people with a lived experience of mental illness in service delivery. A novel approach to this is the 'integrated staffing model' being trialled at two Australian public residential mental health rehabilitation services (Community Care Units, CCUs) where peer support workers (PSWs) occupy the majority of staff roles and work alongside clinicians. Semi-structured interviews were completed with fifteen staff 12-to-18-months after service commencement. Transcripts were analysed following principles of grounded theory analysis. Key emergent themes were: (1) recovery is a deeply personal and non-linear process; (2) The CCU as a transitional learning environment; (3) the integrated staffing model facilitates an effective rehabilitation team; and (4) coming together under the integrated staffing model required a steep learning curve. The findings suggest that the integrated staffing approach may provide a pathway to facilitate the meaningful inclusion of PSWs in rehabilitation settings.

Abstract
Background Various modes of delivering cognitive remediation (CR) are effective, but there have been few head-to-head trials of different approaches. This trial aimed to evaluate the relative effectiveness of two different programmes, Cognitive Compensatory Training (CCT) and Computerized Interactive Remediation of Cognition-Training for Schizophrenia (CIRCuiTs). Methods The study used a single-blind randomized, controlled trial to examine the efficacy and effectiveness of the two therapies. The study aimed to enroll 100 clinically stable patients between the ages of 18 and 65 years who had been diagnosed with a schizophrenia spectrum disorder. Participants were randomized to either the CCT or CIRCuiTs therapy groups. The primary outcome measures were neurocognition using the Brief Assessment of Cognition Scale (BACS) and the Subjective Scale to Investigate Cognition in Schizophrenia (SSTICS). The secondary measure was functional outcomes using the Social Functioning Scale (SFS). Results There was no group difference in any of the outcome measures post-intervention or at follow-up. Both groups had a small improvement on their SSTICS scores between baseline (M = 30.52 and SD = 14.61) and post-intervention (M = 23.96 and SD = 10.92). Verbal memory scores as measured by list learning improved for both groups between baseline (z = -1.62) and 3-month follow-up (z = -1.03). Both groups improved on the token motor task between baseline (z = -1.38) and post-intervention (z = -0.69). Both groups had a decline in Symbol Coding scores between baseline (z = 0.05) and 3-month follow-up (z = -0.82). Discussion This underpowered study found no difference in effect between the two approaches studied. If future studies confirm this finding, then it has implications for services where cost and lack of computer technology could pose a barrier in addressing the cognitive domain of schizophrenia spectrum disorders. The final sample size compromised the power of the study to conclusively determine a significant effect.

Abstract
Therapeutic apheresis (TA) as a treatment for antibody-associated vasculitis (AAV) was questioned by the PEXIVAS although the MEPEX study favored TA. The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of TA to improve renal function in patients consecutively included in the WAA-apheresis registry versus patients not treated with TA. MATERIALS AND METHODS Included were 192 patients that suffered from anti-glomerular basement membrane disease (anti-GBM, n = 28) and antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody-associated vasculitis of MPO or PR3 origin. Of these 119 had performed TA and the other 73 had not performed TA for theses diagnoses (CTRL). RESULTS Elderly had an increased risk to die within 12 months (p = 0.002). All 28 anti-GBM had renal involvement, 21 dialysis dependent. At 3 month nine (36 %) did not need dialysis. Baseline data regarding renal function of AAV patients, subtype MPO and PR3, were worse in the TA groups than in CTRL. Recovery out of dialysis was better for the PR3-TA group compared with 1) the controls of MEPEX (RR 0.59, CI 0.43-0.80) and 2) the MPO-TA patients (RR 0.28, CI 0.12-0.68). The MPO-TA recovered similarly as the MEPEX-CTRL. Renal function improved most for TA-patients from baseline during the first 3 months (MPO-TA and PR3-TA) and stabilized thereafter and less for MPO-CTRL and PR3-CTRL. CONCLUSION PR3-TA patients seem to have best chances to get out of dialysis. PR3-TA and MPO-TA improved residual renal function better than CTRL. The present study recommends reconsiderations to use TA for AAV especially those with PR3-vasculitis with severe renal vasculitis.

Abstract
Semi-structured interviews were used to explore the consumer experience of community-based residential mental health rehabilitation support at Community Care Units in Australia. These clinical services provide recovery-oriented residential rehabilitation to people affected by severe and persistent mental illness. Typically, nurses occupy the majority of staff roles. However, two of the three sites in the study were trialling a novel integrated staffing model where the majority of staff were people with a lived experience of mental illness employed as peer support workers (PSWs). The interviews explored consumers' experiences of care 12-18 months after admission. Fifteen interviews were completed with an independent interviewer. Most participants were diagnosed with schizophrenia or a related psychotic disorder. The analysis followed a pragmatic approach to grounded theory. Consumers viewed the CCU favourably, emphasizing the value of the relationships formed with staff and co-residents. No major differences in consumers' experience under the traditional versus integrated staffing models were identified; however, those from the integrated staffing model sites valued the contributions of the peer support workers. The understanding of the consumer experience emerging through this study aligned with their expectations of the service at the time of commencement.

Abstract
Background Compensation and adaptation therapies have been developed to improve community functioning via improving neurocognitive abilities in people with schizophrenia. Various modes of delivering compensation and adaptation therapies have been found to be effective. The aim of this trial is to compare two different cognitive interventions, Compensatory Cognitive Training (CCT) and Computerised Interactive Remediation of Cognition–Training for Schizophrenia (CIRCuiTS). The trial also aims to identify if mismatch negativity (MMN) can predict an individual’s response to the compensation and adaptation programmes. Methods This study will use a randomised, controlled trial of two cognitive interventions to compare the impact of these programmes on measures of neurocognition and function. One hundred clinically stable patients aged between 18 and 65 years with a diagnosis of a schizophrenia spectrum disorder will be recruited. Participants will be randomised to either the CCT or the CIRCuiTS therapy groups. The outcome measures are neurocognition (BACS), subjective sense of cognitive impairment (SSTICS), social functioning (SFS), and MMN (measured by EEG) in people with schizophrenia spectrum disorders. Discussion This trial will determine whether different approaches to addressing the cognitive deficits found in schizophrenia spectrum disorders are of comparable benefit using the outcome measures chosen. This has implications for services where cost and lack of computer technology limit the implementation and dissemination of interventions to address cognitive impairment in routine practice. The trial will contribute to the emerging evidence of MMN as a predictor of response to cognitive interventions.

Abstract
Background Deficits in social cognition are common in people with schizophrenia and are associated with impaired functioning. Finding effective interventions to address these deficits is a priority. Social Cognition Interaction Training (SCIT) is a psychosocial intervention that has demonstrated acceptability and feasibility in various health care settings. Larger, well‐designed randomized controlled trials are needed to examine the effectiveness of this intervention. Design A randomized controlled trial. Methods One hundred and twenty adults diagnosed with schizophrenia spectrum disorder were randomized to receive SCIT (n = 61) or Befriending Therapy (BT) (n = 59). Both intervention groups were delivered weekly for 2 hr over 12 weeks. Neurocognitive assessment was completed at baseline. Participants completed assessments of social cognition, social functioning, and meta‐cognition at baseline, post‐intervention, and 3‐month follow‐up. Results There were no clinically significant differences between group outcomes on any measure of social cognition or social functioning. There was a trend for both groups to improve over time but not at a level of statistical significance. Conclusions SCIT did not show any additional benefits on measures of social cognition compared to Befriending Therapy for people with schizophrenia spectrum disorder. The findings are discussed in terms of potential improvements to the programme. Practitioner points Effective interventions for the social cognitive deficits of schizophrenia spectrum disorders are still being refined. Social Cognition Interaction Training is a promising therapy but requires further modifications to improve its effectiveness.

Abstract
Mental health services increasingly involve peer support workers. Staff expectations of working in these services are important because they frame processes and cultures that develop within services, and influence work satisfaction, staff retention, and consumer experience. We examined staff expectations at two new community-based residential rehabilitation units trialing a staffing model where most staff are employed based on their lived experience of mental illness. Qualitative semi-structured interviews were conducted with ten peer support workers and five clinical staff on commencement at Community Care Units that opened in 2014 and 2015. Staff views covered individual motivations, emerging organizational practices and culture, and the nature and philosophy of recovery and recovery-oriented rehabilitation. Subtle differences were evident in staff understandings of recovery and recovery-oriented rehabilitation. Staff were mostly optimistic about the services' potential but expressed uncertainty about how the professions would work together and practicalities of the new roles. Concerns that staff foreshadowed are consistent with those reported in the literature and can be pre-emptively addressed. Future research on staff experiences will enhance understanding of how staff perceptions of recovery-oriented rehabilitation change over time, and of how these relate to consumer experiences and outcomes.

Abstract
This study explores how consumers expect community-based residential mental health rehabilitation to compare with previous experiences of care. Understanding what consumers hope to receive from mental health services, and listening to their perspectives about what has and has not worked in previous care settings, may illuminate pathways to improved service engagement and outcomes. A mixed-methods research design taking a pragmatic approach to grounded theory guided the analysis of 24 semi-structured interviews with consumers on commencement at three Community Care Units (CCUs) in Australia. Two of these CCUs were trialling a staffing model integrating peer support work with clinical care. All interviews were conducted by an independent interviewer within the first 6 weeks of the consumer's stay. All participants expected the CCU to offer an improvement on previous experiences of care. Comparisons were made to acute and subacute inpatient settings, supported accommodation, and outpatient care. Consumers expected differences in the people (staff and co-residents), the focus of care, physical environ, and rules and regulations. Participants from the integrated staffing model sites articulated the expected value of a less clinical approach to care. Overall, consumers' expectations aligned with the principles articulated in policy frameworks for recovery-oriented practice. However, their reflections on past care suggest that these services continue to face significant challenges realizing these principles in practice. Paying attention to the kind of working relationship consumers want to have with mental health services, such as the provision of choice and maintaining a practical and therapeutic supportive focus, could improve their engagement and outcomes.

Abstract
Background To evaluate the planned implementation of group based Cognitive Remediation therapy (CR) and Social Cognitive Interaction Training (SCIT) into routine psychosis care in a mental health service in Australia. Method The study was conducted over 3 years in a mental health service in a metropolitan city in Australia. Participants were 22 program facilitators and 128 patients attending the programs. Implementation outcomes were assessed using administrative data, staff surveys and program audits. Results There was fidelity to the particular therapies at a program level. Programs were assessed as being feasible within the study setting with each hospital district developing a capacity to run CR and SCIT. The establishment of new programs improved the reach, but waiting lists indicate a need to expand capacity. There was a relatively high dropout and several factors impacted on completion of the programs - notably, acute exacerbation of psychosis. Once initiated the therapies were acceptable with no-one ceasing SCIT due to loss of interest and only 10% of participants ceasing CR due to loss of interest. Annual audits of programs found programs established were maintained and facilitators were retained. Conclusion SCIT and CR programs were successfully implemented in three hospital districts. Several factors impeded participants receiving the recommended “dose” of the programs. The maintenance of the programs in the short term is encouraging in regards to organisational fit. Dissemination of cognitive rehabilitation programs to a service population takes planning. An implementation plan is essential for guiding development and maintenance of programs. These therapies are best suited to people in a stable phase of illness. Service user co-production is recommended to improve recruitment in future studies.

Abstract
In the present study, we explored the experiences of staff working at a recovery-oriented, community-based residential mental health rehabilitation unit in Brisbane, Australia, called a 'community care unit' (CCU). A pragmatic approach to grounded theory was taken in the analysis of the transcripts of semistructured interviews with eight staff. Convenience sampling was used, and there was representation of junior and senior staff across nursing, allied health, and non-clinical support roles. Four key themes emerged from the analysis: (i) rehabilitation is different to treatment; (ii) the CCU is a positive transitional space; (iii) they (consumers) have to be ready to engage; and (iv) recovery is central to rehabilitation practice. Staff understandings of recovery in rehabilitation work were complex and included consideration of both personal and clinical recovery concepts. Rehabilitation readiness was considered important to the ability to deliver recovery-oriented care; however, the shared role of staff in maintaining engagement was acknowledged. Threats to recovery-oriented rehabilitation practice included staff burnout and external pressure to accept consumers who are not ready. The reality of working at a community-based recovery-oriented rehabilitation unit is complex. Active vigilance is needed to maintain a focus on recovery and rehabilitation. Leadership needs to focus on reducing burnout and in adapting these services to emergent needs.

Abstract
Background Strategies to implement evidence-based practice have highlighted the bidirectional relationship of organisational change on organisational culture. The present study examined changes in perceptions of organisational culture in two community mental health services implementing cognitive therapies into routine psychosis care over 3 years. During the time of the study there were a number of shared planned and unplanned changes that the mental health services had to accommodate. One service, Metro South, had the additional challenge of embarking on a major organisational restructure. Methods A survey of organisational culture was administered to clinical staff of each service at yearly intervals over the 3 years. Results At baseline assessment there was no significant difference between the two services in organisational culture. At the midpoint assessment, which was conducted at the time the Metro South restructure was operationalized, there were less positive ratings of organisational culture recorded in Metro South compared to the other service. Organisational culture returned to near-baseline levels at endpoint assessment. Conclusions These findings are consistent with the literature that organisational culture is relatively robust and resilient. It is also consistent with the literature that, at any one time, a service or organisation may have a finite capacity to absorb change. Consequently this limitation needs to be taken into account in the timing and planning of major service reform where possible. The results also extend the literature, insofar as external factors with a high impact on the operation of an organisation may impact upon organisational culture albeit temporarily.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A novel staffing model integrating peer support workers and clinical staff within a unified team is being trialled at community based residential rehabilitation units in Australia. A mixed-methods protocol for the longitudinal evaluation of the outcomes, expectations and experiences of care by consumers and staff under this staffing model in two units will be compared to one unit operating a traditional clinical staffing. The study is unique with regards to the context, the longitudinal approach and consideration of multiple stakeholder perspectives. METHODS/DESIGN The longitudinal mixed methods design integrates a quantitative evaluation of the outcomes of care for consumers at three residential rehabilitation units with an applied qualitative research methodology. The quantitative component utilizes a prospective cohort design to explore whether equivalent outcomes are achieved through engagement at residential rehabilitation units operating integrated and clinical staffing models. Comparative data will be available from the time of admission, discharge and 12-month period post-discharge from the units. Additionally, retrospective data for the 12-month period prior to admission will be utilized to consider changes in functioning pre and post engagement with residential rehabilitation care. The primary outcome will be change in psychosocial functioning, assessed using the total score on the Health of the Nation Outcome Scales (HoNOS). Planned secondary outcomes will include changes in symptomatology, disability, recovery orientation, carer quality of life, emergency department presentations, psychiatric inpatient bed days, and psychological distress and wellbeing. Planned analyses will include: cohort description; hierarchical linear regression modelling of the predictors of change in HoNOS following CCU care; and descriptive comparisons of the costs associated with the two staffing models. The qualitative component utilizes a pragmatic approach to grounded theory, with collection of data from consumers and staff at multiple time points exploring their expectations, experiences and reflections on the care provided by these services. DISCUSSION It is expected that the new knowledge gained through this study will guide the adaptation of these and similar services. For example, if differential outcomes are achieved for consumers under the integrated and clinical staffing models this may inform staffing guidelines.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This paper describes the establishment of training in cognitive remediation for psychosis within a community mental health service. METHODS Clinical staff working in the community of a mental health service were surveyed to ascertain their interest in cognitive aspects of psychosis and skills training in cognitive remediation (CR). Based on the results of the survey a tiered training programme was established with attendance figures reported for each level of training. Fidelity assessment was conducted on the five CR programmes operating. RESULTS Of 106 clinical staff working in the community with people diagnosed with a psychotic illness 51 completed the survey (48% response rate). The training needs varied with all 106 staff receiving the fundamental (mandatory) training and 51 staff receiving CR facilitator training. Thirty three percent of staff trained as facilitators were delivering CR. CONCLUSIONS Up skilling the mental health workforce to incorporate an understanding of the cognitive aspects of psychosis into care delivery can be facilitated by a tiered training structure. Fundamental training on the psychosocial aspects of psychosis can act as a platform for focussed CR skills based training. There is also a need for accessible therapy based supervision for staff wishing to develop competencies as CR therapists.

Abstract
Apheresis with different procedures and devices are used for a variety of indications that may have different adverse events (AEs). The aim of this study was to clarify the extent and possible reasons of various side effects based on data from a multinational registry. The WAA-apheresis registry data focus on adverse events in a total of 50846 procedures in 7142 patients (42% women). AEs were graded as mild, moderate (need for medication), severe (interruption due to the AE) or death (due to AE). More AEs occurred during the first procedures versus subsequent (8.4 and 5.5%, respectively). AEs were mild in 2.4% (due to access 54%, device 7%, hypotension 15%, tingling 8%), moderate in 3% (tingling 58%, urticaria 15%, hypotension 10%, nausea 3%), and severe in 0.4% of procedures (syncope/hypotension 32%, urticaria 17%, chills/fever 8%, arrhythmia/asystole 4.5%, nausea/vomiting 4%). Hypotension was most common if albumin was used as the replacement fluid, and urticaria when plasma was used. Arrhythmia occurred to similar extents when using plasma or albumin as replacement. In 64% of procedures with bronchospasm, plasma was part of the replacement fluid used. Severe AEs are rare. Although most reactions are mild and moderate, several side effects may be critical for the patient. We present side effects in relation to the procedures and suggest that safety is increased by regular vital sign measurements, cardiac monitoring and by having emergency equipment nearby.

Abstract
The proliferation signal inhibitors (PSIs)-sirolimus, everolimus, and temsirolimus-have been associated with a noninfectious pneumonitis characterized by lymphocytic alveolitis and bronciolitis obliterans with organizing pneumonia (BOOP). This condition usually occurs within the first year. Herein we presented a case of a deceased donor renal transplant with interstitial pneumonitis developing 6 years after a switch from tacrolimus to sirolimus due to chronic graft dysfunction. After the addition of intravenous pentamidine due to the suspicion of Pneumocystis pneumonia, there was marked clinical deterioration requiring intubation. Open lung biopsy revealed sirolimus-induced pulmonary toxicity (BOOP) with the additional finding of a drug-induced phospholipidosis (DIPL) that we ascribe to pentamidine treatment. After cessation of both drugs and application of corticosteroid therapy, there was only partial improvement. Eight months later the residual interstitial fibrosis demands supplemental home oxygen. We review the literature on PSI-induced pneumonitis and discuss the pathophysiology of a potential interaction with pentamidine. We caution against its use in the setting of PSI-induced pneumonitis. It is currently unknown whether these concerns also apply to prescription of other more commonly used medications associated with DIPL, eg, amiodarone and aminoglycosides.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Thrombotic Microangiopathy (TMA) is a histopathological feature of various diseases including thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura and hemolytic uremic syndrome. The aim of this study was to investigate the outcome and prognostic variables of TMA-patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS Data were consecutively retrieved from the WAA-apheresis registry (www.waa-registry.org) during 2003-2009. Included were all 120 patients (1237 procedures) who suffered from various forms of TMA, as registered by the ICD-10 code M31.1. Besides registry data, more extensive information was retrieved from the latest 64 patients. Adverse events of the TMA patients were compared to those of the other patients in the registry. RESULTS The mean age was 46 years (range 11-85 years, 57% women). In 72% therapeutic apheresis was due to an acute indication while a long-term indication was present in 28%. Plasma exchange was performed by centrifugation and filtration technique (95% and 4%, respectively), and immunoadsorption in 1% of the patients. Only fresh frozen plasma was used as replacement fluid in 69% of procedures. Adverse events were more frequent than in the general apheresis population (10% versus 5%, RR 1.9, CI 1.6-2.3). No death occurred due to apheresis treatment. Three percent of the procedures were interrupted. Bronchospasm and/or anaphylactic shock were present in two patients and one patient suffered from TRALI. At admission 26% were bedridden and needed to be fed. The risk of dying during the treatment period was significantly higher if the patient also suffered from a compromising disease, such as cancer. There was an inverse correlation between the ADAMTS13 level and the antibody titer (r=-0.47, p=0.034). CONCLUSIONS Patients with TMA have an increased risk for moderate and severe AE compared to the general apheresis population. Many patients were severely ill at admission. The prognosis is worse if the patient also has a severe chronic disease. Even slightly increased ADAMTS13-antibody titers seem to have a negative impact on the ADAMTS13 levels.

Abstract
Given its presence in almost every clinical trial, the placebo is the most frequently studied substance in clinical research. Demonstration of treatment efficacy demands that the target (active) agent must be shown to be statistically significantly superior to an inert substance (placebo) not believed to be a specific therapy for the target condition. In clinical practice, enhancing the non-specific factors that contribute to an enhanced treatment outcome is desirable to maximize the likelihood of therapeutic benefit. Variables affecting the impact of placebo on clinical research and practice remain poorly understood, however, as they have not been systematically studied. The present article will discuss behavioral factors that have been found to be relevant in placebo mechanisms.

Abstract
266 Background: Addition of erlotinib (E) to gemcitabine (G) results in improved OS for patients (pts) with advanced pancreatic cancer. Many pancreatic tumors have constitutively activated ras/raf pathways and overexpress VEGF. Sorafenib (S), a multitargeted tyrosine kinase inhibitor, including VEGR 1-3, PDGFR-α and β and the RAF/MEK/ERK pathway, when combined with G and E may synergize, resulting in a more complete blockade of the signal transduction cascade in pancreatic cancer growth and progression, and improved outcome. Methods: Pts with previously untreated, histologically confirmed, unresectable pancreatic adenocarcinoma, PS 0-1, and adequate organ function were eligible and received G 1,000 mg/m2 over 30 min qw x 3 every 4w. E 150 mg PO daily and S 400 mg PO bid were given continuously. CT scans were performed every 2 cycles (8w). Primary endpoint included PFS at 4 mos and secondary endpoints included safety and tolerability of the novel combination, RR, and OS. Results: 45 pts enrolled, 44 evaluable for toxicity(1 not treated), and 30 evaluable for response. Median age was 64 (45-84), 32 males (71%), 43 (96%) had metastatic disease, PS was 0 in 26 (58%). Median number of cycles was 2 (0-10). Grade (gr) 3 toxicity included: thrombocytopenia 5; diarrhea 4; vomiting 4; HFS, hyperbilirubinemia, hyperglycemia and SOB each 3 pts; 1 bowel perforation and 1 epistaxis. Gr 4 toxicity included 1 each: bowel perforation, GI bleed, transaminitis, hyperglycemia and sepsis with hypotension. 2 patients only required dose reduction of S for HFS. There were 2 PR (7%), 13 SD (43%), overall RR of 7% and DCR of 50%. Median TTP 111 days (95% CI = 53-175) and median OS 195 days (144-290). PFS at 16 weeks was 49%, just reaching statistical significance. Conclusions: The combination of G and E plus S in the treatment of advanced pancreatic cancer is a well tolerated regimen without significant increased toxicity as compared to G alone, except for very manageable cutaneous reactions. While the primary endpoint met our pre-determined criteria (compared with NCIC PA.3), this study does not suggest a major benefit for addition of S to G-E when compared to published data. Supported in part by grants from Bayer Healthcare Pharmaceuticals/Onyx and OSI. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

Abstract
e15552 Background: We previously demonstrated the efficacy of irinotecan (CPT) and cisplatin (Cis) combination therapy as neoadjuvant therapy for locally advanced gastric cancer [Newman E et al. J Gastrointest Surg. 2002.]. This trial was designed to add cetuximab (C) to both induction treatment and adjuvant chemoradiation (CRT) with bolus 5-FU/LV. Methods: Pts with untreated locally advanced (T3, T4 or N+) gastric/GE cancers were eligible. Neoadjuvant therapy consisted of Cis 25mg/m2 + CPT 75mg/m2 on d1,8 q21d x 4, C 400mg/m2 on d1, then 250mg/m2 qwk. Curative (R0) resection was performed 4–6 wks later. Adjuvant CRT with 5-FU/LV (425/20/m2 qd x 5 on wks 1,14,19; 400/20/m2 qd x 4 on wk 5, x 3 on wk 9) was given with C 250mg/m2 qwk. Results: Since 11/05, 21 pts [median age 59 (32–82); 9 Caucasian, 11 Asian, 1 Hispanic; 15 male, 20 PS 0–1] received neoadjuvant therapy. The most common toxicities were gr 3 neutropenia (38%), gr 2 rash (33%), gr 2 fatigue (29%); gr 4 included 1 pt each of diarrhea, neutropenia, & hypomagnesemia. 3 did not complete neoadjuvant therapy, due to gr 3 rash, diarrhea and GI bleeding (2 had gastrectomy; 1 lost to f/u). All 18 pts who completed neoadjuvant therapy were surgically explored. 4 had occult metastases, and went off study. 14 underwent R0 gastrectomy (see table); 8 were downstaged, 2 had stable disease, 4 were upstaged compared to the preoperative EUS. There was no postoperative mortality. Of 14 resected pts, 2 did not receive adjuvant therapy (prolonged postoperative recovery), 1 too early to assess, and 11 remaining receiving CRT. The most common toxicities for CRT were gr 3 nausea, gr 3 emesis, gr 2 and 3 fatigue, 3 pts each and 1 each of gr 4 neutropenia and thrombocytopenia. Among the 18 pts who completed neoadjuvant therapy, 5 died of disease, 1 is alive with disease, 12 remain NED with median f/u of 11.6mos (4.1–27.7mos). Conclusions: The addition of C to CPT/Cis as neoadjuvant therapy and to postoperative adjuvant CRT is well tolerated. The regimen induces a favorable pathologic response on the primary tumor. Ongoing evaluation includes K-ras mutation status on outcome and survival benefit. [Supported in part by a grant from BMS.] [Table: see text]

Abstract
e15594 Background: The addition of E to G results in improved survival for patients(pts) with locally advanced and metastatic pancreatic cancer. Many pancreatic tumors have constitutively activated ras/raf pathways and overexpress VEGF. Sorafenib, a multitargeted tyrosine kinase inhibitor which targets VEGR 1–3, PDGFR-α and β and the RAF/MEK/ERK pathway, when combined with G and E may synergize with these agents resulting in a more complete blockade of the signal transduction cascade in pancreatic cancer growth and progression and therefore improve outcome. Methods: Pts with previously untreated, histologically confirmed, unresectable pancreatic adenocarcinoma, ECOG PS 0–1, and adequate organ function were eligible and received G 1,000 mg/m2 over 30 min weekly × 3 every 4 weeks. E 150 mg PO daily and S 400 mg PO bid were given continuously. CT scans were performed every 2 cycles (8 weeks). Endpoints included safety and tolerability of the novel combination, PFS at 4 months, response rate, and OS. Results: Between 9/07–12/08 19 pts were enrolled with a median age 59 (range 45- 75), M/F 13/6, PS (0/1) 14/5. All 19 had metastatic disease. 17 pts are evaluable for toxicity and efficacy. The median number of cycles on treatment was 2 (range 1–10). The most common grade (gr) 3 toxicities were thrombocytopenia (24%), venous thrombosis (12%), and hyperbilirubinemia (12%). The most common gr 4 toxicity was infection (12%). 1 pt each experienced gr 3 HFSR, gr 3 diarrhea, gr 3 bleeding (epistaxis) and 1 had a non-fatal bowel perforation. There was 1 PR and 6 SD for an overall RR of 6% and a DCR of 41%. Conclusions: The combination of G and E plus S in the treatment of advanced pancreatic cancer is a well tolerated regimen without significant increased toxicity as compared to gemcitabine alone, except for very manageable cutaneous reactions. Further follow up is required to determine the combination's efficacy, though some patients have achieved prolonged disease stabilization.

Abstract
18515 Background: The indolent (follicular, marginal zone and mantle cell) lymphomas tend to recur with decreasing intervals of remission post standard chemotherapy. Vorinostat (SAHA, Zolinza), an orally administered hydroxamic acid histone deacetylase inhibitor with activity against class I and II deactylases, with preclinical and clinical activity against various forms of lymphoma, is being studied in patients with relapsed or refractory indolent lymphoma. Methods: Patients with relapsed or refractory follicular, marginal zone, or mantle cell lymphoma are eligible. Vorinostat is dosed at 200 mg po twice daily for 14 consecutive days on a 21 day cycle. CT scanning and marrow biopsy is performed after every three cycles. Patients may have received up to four prior chemotherapy regimens including Zevalin or Bexxar; previous transplant is allowed. Results: 15 patients (9 female, 6 male) have been enrolled thus far. Median age is 64 (40- 78) years One patient was found to have coexisting DLBCL and was removed from study. Four patients were taken off study due to progression, three stopped due to toxicity (fatigue in a 73 yo woman who had stable to improved marginal zone lymphoma after 10 cycles, fatigue and atrial fibrillation in a 65 yo man after 7 cycles, diarrhea in a 78 year old woman after 2 cycles). Complete Response (CR) in a patient with follicular lymphoma was attained after 9 cycles, this CR persists now for eight months at the time of abstract submission off therapy. A partial response (PR) was seen in a 40 yo man with lymphoma progression despite multiple rounds of therapy, with rapidly expanding masses just prior to starting vorinostat, the largest of which was 16x12.3 cm. This lesion currently measures 7.2x4.6 cm, with disappearance of many other sites; patient continues on vorinostat. Three of the patients with continued stable disease beyond 9 cycles have marginal zone lymphoma, while the two responders (CR or PR) have follicular lymphoma. A patient with PET resolution and decreases in two of the involved sites stopping after 10 cycles due to fatigue, developed rapid progression three months after stopping vorinostat. Conclusions: Vorinostat demonstrates preliminary activity against follicular and marginal zone lymphoma. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

Abstract
15027 Background: Newly diagnosed locally advanced and unresectable pancreatic cancer has a 5 yr survival rate of less than 5%. Aggressive local therapy may provide the best means of achieving local control and prolonging survival. We administered concomitant chemoRT with Oxaliplatin and continuous infusional (CIV) 5FU to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) in the phase I portion. Methods: Pts with histologically proven locally advanced pancreatic cancer were enrolled in standard Phase I 3+3 fashion to determine MTD. ChemoRT included 5FU 200mg/m2 CIV and Oxaliplatin wkly X5 wks. Radiation dose was 4500cGy in 25 fractions (180cGy/fx/d) over 5 wks followed by a conedown to the tumor and margin for an additional 540cGy x3 (total dose 5040 cGy in 28 fractions) Oxaliplatin was escalated from 30mg/m2 in 10mg intervals up to 60mg/m2. Following chemoRT, unresectable pts were treated with mFOLFOX6 x 6. Results: 15 pts enrolled in the phase I portion, all completed neoadjuvant therapy. Most hematologic toxicities were gr 1 and 2. There was 1episode of gr 4 lymphopenia. The most common non-hematologic toxicities were gr1–2 fatigue, anorexia, nausea and vomiting. Gr 3 non-hematologic toxicities included 4 episodes hyperglycemia, 1 diarrhea, 1 anorexia, 3 nausea/vomiting and 2 hypokalemia. The highest planned dose level for weekly Oxaliplatin was tolerable and the RPTD is 60mg/m2/wk. Of the 15 pts: 2 progressed, 2 were explored but were unresectable, 2 await exploration and 9 were deemed still unresectable and proceeded to consolidation. 7/9 completed the planned 6 cycles. 1 pt was removed from protocol due to extended delay of treatment due to gr 3 neuropathy. 1 pt died due to progressive disease. 21% of planned cycles were delayed due to gr2 or 3 myelosuppression. 1 pt required dose reduction due to fever in setting of gr4 neutropenia but was able to complete treatment at the reduced dose. Conclusions: Combined modality treatment for locally advanced pancreatic cancer with Oxaliplatin, CIV 5FU and radiation is well tolerated at full doses of Oxaliplatin (60mg/m2/wk) and does not produce substantially more toxicity than standard chemoRT to the pancreatic bed. The phase II portion of the trial is ongoing. [Table: see text]
