Abstract
OBJECTIVE Children with craniofacial microsomia (CFM) have complex healthcare needs, resulting in evaluations and interventions from infancy onward. Yet, little is understood about families' treatment experiences or the impact of CFM on caregivers' well-being. To address this gap, the NIH-funded 'Craniofacial microsomia: Accelerating Research and Education (CARE)' program sought to develop a conceptual thematic framework of caregiver adjustment to CFM. DESIGN Caregivers reported on their child's medical and surgical history. Narrative interviews were conducted with US caregivers (n = 62) of children aged 3-17 years with CFM. Transcripts were inductively coded and final themes and subthemes were identified. RESULTS Components of the framework included: 1) Diagnostic Experiences, including pregnancy and birth, initial emotional responses, communication about the diagnosis by healthcare providers, and information-seeking behaviors; 2) Child Health and Healthcare Experiences, including feeding, the child's physical health, burden of care, medical decision-making, surgical experiences, and the perceived quality of care; 3) Child Development, including cognition and behavior, educational provision, social experiences, and emotional well-being; and 4) Family Functioning, including parental well-being, relationships, coping strategies, and personal growth. Participants also identified a series of "high" and "low" points throughout their journey and shared their priorities for future research. CONCLUSIONS Narrative interviews provided rich insight into caregivers' experiences of having a child with CFM and enabled the development of a conceptual thematic framework to guide clinical care and future research. Information gathered from this study demonstrates the need to incorporate evidence-based psychological support for families into the CFM pathway from birth onward.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To describe how the psychosocial status of patients with cleft lip and/or palate (CL/P) relates to patient-reported outcomes (PROs). DESIGN Cross-sectional retrospective chart review. SETTING Tertiary care pediatric hospital. PATIENTS/PARTICIPANTS Patients aged 8 to 29 years attending cleft team evaluations during a 1-year period. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES CLEFT-Q. RESULTS Patients (N = 158) with isolated or syndromic CL/P and mean age 13.4 ± 3.0 years were included. Fifteen (9%) patients had siblings who also had CL/P. Of 104 patients who met with the team psychologist, psychosocial concerns were identified in 49 (47%) patients, including 25 (24%) with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder or behavior concerns, 28 (27%) with anxiety, and 14 (13%) with depression or mood concerns. Younger age and having siblings with cleft were associated with better PROs, while psychosocial concerns were associated with worse PROs on Speech, Psychosocial, and Face Appearance scales. CONCLUSIONS Patient perception of cleft outcomes is linked to psychosocial factors.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare patient-reported outcomes (PROs) in internationally adopted patients with cleft lip and palate to those in non-adopted peers. DESIGN Cross-sectional study. SETTING Multidisciplinary cleft team at tertiary care hospital. PATIENTS Patients aged ≥ 8 with cleft lip and palate attending routine cleft team evaluations September 2021 - September 2022. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE CLEFT-Q PRO scores. RESULTS Sixty-four internationally adopted patients and 113 non-adopted patients with a mean age of 13 years were included. Compared to non-adopted peers, adopted patients demonstrated worse satisfaction with face appearance (mean 59 vs. 66, p = .044), speech function (mean 69 vs. 78, p = .005), and speech distress (mean 80 vs. 84, p = .032). No significant differences were observed on the nose, nostrils, teeth, lips, lip scar, jaws, psychological function, or social function scales (p > .05). Objective clinical evaluation corroborated these findings, with adopted patients demonstrating worse Pittsburgh Weighted Speech scores (mean 3.0 vs 1.9, p = .027) and greater incidence of articulation errors (64% vs 46%, p = .021). No significant differences were observed in rates of mood, anxiety, or behavior concerns identified on psychosocial assessment (p = .764). Among adopted patients, undergoing palatoplasty prior to adoption was associated with worse satisfaction with speech, appearance, school, and social function (p < .05). CONCLUSIONS Patient-reported outcomes among internationally adopted adolescents and young adults with cleft lip and palate show slightly lower satisfaction with facial appearance and speech but otherwise demonstrate similar results to non-adopted peers on most appearance and psychosocial measures. PRO data correlated well with objective speech assessment and did not portend worse psychosocial function.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Measuring disability as a concept of impaired global function enables beneficiaries of treatment, the impact of treatment, and targets of health system investment to be rigorously assessed. Measures of disability are not well established for cleft lip and palate. This study aims to systematically review disability weight (DW) studies pertaining to orofacial clefts (OFCs) and identify methodological strengths and shortcomings of each approach. DESIGN Systematic literature review of studies that met the following criteria: (1) peer-reviewed publication, (2) focus on disability valuation, (3) mention orofacial clefts, and (4) publication January 2001-December 2021. SETTING None. PATIENTS/PARTICIPANTS None. INTERVENTIONS None. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE(S) Disability weight method of valuation and the value itself. RESULTS The final search strategy yielded 1,067 studies. Seven manuscripts were ultimately included for data extraction. The disability weights used in our studies, including those newly generated or taken from the Global Burden of Disease Studies (GBD), ranged widely for isolated cleft lip (0.0-0.100) and cleft palate with or without cleft lip (0.0-0.269). The GBD studies limited their consideration of cleft sequelae informing disability weights to impact on appearance and speech-related concerns, while other studies accounted for comorbidities such as pain and social stigma. CONCLUSIONS Current measures of cleft disability are sparse, inadequately reflect the comprehensive impact of an OFC on function and socialization, and are limited in detail or supporting evidence. Use of a comprehensive health state description in evaluating disability weights offers a realistic means of accurately representing the diverse sequelae of an OFC.

Abstract
Introduction: Pediatric Graves' disease (GD) is associated with hyperthyroid symptoms that impact psychosocial and physical functioning. Total thyroidectomy (TT) is a definitive treatment option that replaces antithyroid medication. While studies have examined health-related quality of life (QOL) in adults, there are no data describing impacts of TT in pediatrics. In this prospective longitudinal study, we explored the impact of TT on disease-specific QOL and satisfaction with TT and scar appearance in adolescent patients with GD undergoing TT. Methods: Patients 12-19 years old pursuing TT for GD and their parents were recruited to complete surveys before and at least 6 months after TT. Surveys assessed motivations for pursuing TT, QOL, perceived stigmatization, self-esteem, scar appearance, and surgery satisfaction. Paired scores were compared using Wilcoxon signed-rank tests, and subscore associations were assessed using Spearman association tests. Results: Thirty-seven patient-parent dyads completed baseline surveys, including 20 patient-parent dyads completing pre- and post-TT surveys. At baseline, patients reported physical and cognitive symptomology, including tiredness, anxiety, and emotional susceptibility through ThyPRO. Psychosocial functioning at school was low through PedsQL. Disease-specific QOL significantly improved after TT, with notable improvements associated with resolution of goiter (median change = -26.14, p = 0.003), hyperthyroid symptoms (median change = -43.75, p = 0.002), tiredness (median change = -26.79, p = 0.017), cognitive impairment (median change = -14.58, p = 0.035), anxiety (median change = -33.33, p = 0.010), and emotional susceptibility (median change = -28.99, p = 0.035). Physical (median change = 18.75, p = 0.005) and school-related functioning (median change = 30.00, p = 0.002) also significantly improved post-TT. Reported GD-associated eye symptomology (thyroid eye disease) was the second lowest scoring ThyPRO subscore at baseline and improved after surgery (median change = 14.06, p = 0.03). Families reported median recovery by two months, high satisfaction with the outcomes of TT, and minimal concerns over scar appearance. No permanent surgical complications (i.e., recurrent laryngeal nerve damage or hypoparathyroidism) were sustained. Conclusions: In the setting of a high-volume surgeon with low complication rates, TT for GD in pediatric populations may have substantial beneficial effects on disease-specific QOL and psychosocial functioning, with minimal adverse complaints about scar appearance.

Abstract
Introduction Pediatric Graves’ disease (GD) is associated with hyperthyroid symptoms broadly impacting psychosocial functioning. Total thyroidectomy (TT) is a definitive treatment option that replaces long-term antithyroid medication (ATD) for GD. While studies have examined health-related quality of life (hrQOL) in adults, there are no data describing impacts of definitive surgery in pediatrics. In this prospective, longitudinal study, we explored the impact of definitive surgery on hrQOL and psychosocial functioning in adolescent patients with GD. Methods Patients 12-19 years old pursuing definitive surgery for GD and their parents were recruited to complete surveys before and at least six months following TT. Parents pre-operatively completed a demographic questionnaire, parent rating scale assessing perceived symptom severity, and motivations for pursuing TT questionnaire. Patients pre- and post-operatively completed the Pediatric Quality of Life Scales (PedsQL), Quality of Life Questionnaire for Patients with Thyroid Disease (ThyPRO), Perceived Stigmatization Questionnaire (PSQ), Body Esteem Scale for Adolescents and Adults (BESAA), and European Group on Graves’ Orbitopathy GO Quality of Life Questionnaire (EUGOGO-QOL). Patients and parents post-operatively completed the Patient and Observer Scar Assessment Scale (POSAS) and a post-surgical satisfaction scale. Longitudinal paired scores were compared using Wilcoxon rank-sum test with Bonferroni-Holm correction. Survey subscore associations were assessed using Spearman tests with Benjamin-Hochberg correction. P-values < 0.10 for survey association analyses and all other p-values < 0. 05 were considered statistically significant. Results Thirty-six patient/parent dyads completed baseline surveys, including 19 patient/parent dyads completing both pre- and post-TT surveys. Families reported that patients’ GD and ATD significantly interfered with quality of life. Motivations for definitive surgery included ease of monitoring hypothyroidism as opposed to hyperthyroidism, access to a 'high-volume' surgeon, desire to reduce goiter symptoms, and opposition to radioactive medication. At baseline, patients reported high physical and cognitive GD symptomology via ThyPRO, specifically hyperthyroid symptoms, tiredness, anxiety, and emotional susceptibility. Psychosocial functioning via PedsQL, specifically in school settings, was depressed. Disease-specific hrQOL (ThyPRO) significantly improved following TT, with notable improvements in goiter (p=0. 002), hyperthyroid symptoms (p=0. 002), tiredness (p=0. 003), and anxiety (p=0. 003). Physical (p=0. 006) and school-related functioning (p=0. 003) improved post-TT (PedsQL), while variables captured by PSQ, BESAA, and EUGOGO-QOL were not significant pre- and post-TT. Reported GD-associated eye symptomology was minimal at baseline and further improved following surgery (p=0. 007). ThyPRO and PedsQL subscores were significantly associated at baseline and change after surgery, suggesting interconnectedness between disease-specific hrQOL and psychosocial functioning. Patients and parents reported median recovery of two months and high satisfaction with the outcomes of definitive surgery, with minimal scar appearance concerns. Conclusions In the setting of a high-volume surgeon with low complication rates, definitive surgery for GD in pediatric populations has substantial, beneficial effects on disease-specific hrQOL and psychosocial functioning, with minimal adverse scar appearance complaints.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Stillbirth is a potentially preventable complication of pregnancy. Identifying women at high risk of stillbirth can guide decisions on the need for closer surveillance and timing of delivery in order to prevent fetal death. Prognostic models have been developed to predict the risk of stillbirth, but none has yet been validated externally. In this study, we externally validated published prediction models for stillbirth using individual participant data (IPD) meta-analysis to assess their predictive performance. METHODS MEDLINE, EMBASE, DH-DATA and AMED databases were searched from inception to December 2020 to identify studies reporting stillbirth prediction models. Studies that developed or updated prediction models for stillbirth for use at any time during pregnancy were included. IPD from cohorts within the International Prediction of Pregnancy Complications (IPPIC) Network were used to validate externally the identified prediction models whose individual variables were available in the IPD. The risk of bias of the models and cohorts was assessed using the Prediction study Risk Of Bias ASsessment Tool (PROBAST). The discriminative performance of the models was evaluated using the C-statistic, and calibration was assessed using calibration plots, calibration slope and calibration-in-the-large. Performance measures were estimated separately in each cohort, as well as summarized across cohorts using random-effects meta-analysis. Clinical utility was assessed using net benefit. RESULTS Seventeen studies reporting the development of 40 prognostic models for stillbirth were identified. None of the models had been previously validated externally, and the full model equation was reported for only one-fifth (20%, 8/40) of the models. External validation was possible for three of these models, using IPD from 19 cohorts (491 201 pregnant women) within the IPPIC Network database. Based on evaluation of the model development studies, all three models had an overall high risk of bias, according to PROBAST. In the IPD meta-analysis, the models had summary C-statistics ranging from 0.53 to 0.65 and summary calibration slopes ranging from 0.40 to 0.88, with risk predictions that were generally too extreme compared with the observed risks. The models had little to no clinical utility, as assessed by net benefit. However, there remained uncertainty in the performance of some models due to small available sample sizes. CONCLUSIONS The three validated stillbirth prediction models showed generally poor and uncertain predictive performance in new data, with limited evidence to support their clinical application. The findings suggest methodological shortcomings in their development, including overfitting. Further research is needed to further validate these and other models, identify stronger prognostic factors and develop more robust prediction models. © 2021 The Authors.

Abstract
AIMS The neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and the absolute lymphocyte count (ALC) have been proposed as prognostic markers in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The objective of this study was to examine the association of NLR/ALC before and after curative-intent radiotherapy for NSCLC on disease recurrence and overall survival. MATERIALS AND METHODS A retrospective study of consecutive patients who underwent curative-intent radiotherapy for NSCLC across nine sites in the UK from 1 October 2014 to 1 October 2016. A multivariate analysis was carried out to assess the ability of pre-treatment NLR/ALC, post-treatment NLR/ALC and change in NLR/ALC, adjusted for confounding factors using the Cox proportional hazards model, to predict disease recurrence and overall survival within 2 years of treatment. RESULTS In total, 425 patients were identified with complete blood parameter values. None of the NLR/ALC parameters were independent predictors of disease recurrence. Higher pre-NLR, post-NLR and change in NLR plus lower post-ALC were all independent predictors of worse survival. Receiver operator curve analysis found a pre-NLR > 2.5 (odds ratio 1.71, 95% confidence interval 1.06-2.79, P < 0.05), a post-NLR > 5.5 (odds ratio 2.36, 95% confidence interval 1.49-3.76, P < 0.001), a change in NLR >3.6 (odds ratio 2.41, 95% confidence interval 1.5-3.91, P < 0.001) and a post-ALC < 0.8 (odds ratio 2.86, 95% confidence interval 1.76-4.69, P < 0.001) optimally predicted poor overall survival on both univariate and multivariate analysis when adjusted for confounding factors. Median overall survival for the high-versus low-risk groups were: pre-NLR 770 versus 1009 days (P = 0.34), post-NLR 596 versus 1287 days (P ≤ 0.001), change in NLR 553 versus 1214 days (P ≤ 0.001) and post-ALC 594 versus 1287 days (P ≤ 0.001). CONCLUSION NLR and ALC, surrogate markers for systemic inflammation, have prognostic value in NSCLC patients treated with curative-intent radiotherapy. These simple and readily available parameters may have a future role in risk stratification post-treatment to inform the intensity of surveillance protocols.

Abstract
Recent research has shown an association between monthly law enforcement drug seizure events and accidental drug overdose deaths using cross-sectional data in a single state, whereby increased seizures correlated with more deaths. In this study, we conduct statistical analysis of street-level data on law enforcement drug seizures, along with street-level data on fatal and non-fatal overdose events, to determine possible micro-level causal associations between opioid-related drug seizures and overdoses. For this purpose, we introduce a novel, modified two-process Knox test that controls for self-excitation to measure clustering of overdoses nearby in space and time following law enforcement seizures. We observe a small, but statistically significant (
p
< 0.001), effect of 17.7 excess non-fatal overdoses per 1000 law enforcement seizures within three weeks and 250 m of a seizure. We discuss the potential causal mechanism for this association along with policy implications.

Abstract
AIMS There is a paucity of evidence on which to produce recommendations on neither the clinical nor the imaging follow-up of lung cancer patients after curative-intent radiotherapy. In the 2019 National Institute for Health and Care Excellence lung cancer guidelines, further research into risk-stratification models to inform follow-up protocols was recommended. MATERIALS AND METHODS A retrospective study of consecutive patients undergoing curative-intent radiotherapy for non-small cell lung cancer from 1 October 2014 to 1 October 2016 across nine UK trusts was carried out. Twenty-two demographic, clinical and treatment-related variables were collected and multivariable logistic regression was used to develop and validate two risk-stratification models to determine the risk of disease recurrence and death. RESULTS In total, 898 patients were included in the study. The mean age was 72 years, 63% (562/898) had a good performance status (0-1) and 43% (388/898), 15% (134/898) and 42% (376/898) were clinical stage I, II and III, respectively. Thirty-six per cent (322/898) suffered disease recurrence and 41% (369/898) died in the first 2 years after radiotherapy. The ASSENT score (age, performance status, smoking status, staging endobronchial ultrasound, N-stage, T-stage) was developed, which stratifies the risk for disease recurrence within 2 years, with an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUROC) for the total score of 0.712 (0.671-0.753) and 0.72 (0.65-0.789) in the derivation and validation sets, respectively. The STEPS score (sex, performance status, staging endobronchial ultrasound, T-stage, N-stage) was developed, which stratifies the risk of death within 2 years, with an AUROC for the total score of 0.625 (0.581-0.669) and 0.607 (0.53-0.684) in the derivation and validation sets, respectively. CONCLUSIONS These validated risk-stratification models could be used to inform follow-up protocols after curative-intent radiotherapy for lung cancer. The modest performance highlights the need for more advanced risk prediction tools.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To examine neurodevelopment in preschool-aged children with craniofacial microsomia (CFM) relative to unaffected peers. DESIGN Multisite, longitudinal cohort study. SETTING Tertiary care centers in the United States. PARTICIPANTS We included 92 children with CFM ("cases") through craniofacial centers and clinics. Seventy-six children without CFM (controls) were included from pediatric practices and community advertisements. This study reports on outcomes assessed when participants were an average age of 38.4 months (SD = 1.9). MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES We assessed cognitive and motor skills using the Bayley Scales of Infant and Toddler Development, third edition (Bayley-III), and language function using subtests from the Clinical Evaluation of Language Fundamentals-Preschool, second edition (CELF-P2). RESULTS Case-control differences were negligible for Bayley-III cognitive (effect sizes [ES] = -0.06, P = .72) and motor outcomes (ES = -0.19, P = .25). Cases scored lower than controls on most scales of the CELF-P2 (ES = -0.58 to -0.20, P = .01 to .26). Frequency counts for "developmental delay" (ie, one or more scores > 1 SD below the normative mean) were higher for cases (39%) than controls (15%); however, the adjusted odds ratio = 1.73 (P = 0.21) was not significant. Case-control differences were most evident in children with microtia or other combinations of CFM-related facial features. CONCLUSIONS Cognitive and motor scores were similar for preschool-aged children with and without CFM. However, children with CFM scored lower than controls on language measures. We recommend early monitoring of language to identify preschoolers with CFM who could benefit from intervention.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Stillbirth accounts for over 2 million deaths a year worldwide and rates remains stubbornly high. Multivariable prediction models may be key to individualised monitoring, intervention or early birth in pregnancy to prevent stillbirth. OBJECTIVES To collate and evaluate systematic reviews of factors associated with stillbirth in order to identify variables relevant to prediction model development. SEARCH STRATEGY MEDLINE, Embase, DARE and Cochrane Library databases and reference lists were searched up to November 2019. SELECTION CRITERIA We included systematic reviews of association of individual variables with stillbirth without language restriction. DATA COLLECTION AND ANALYSIS Abstract screening and data extraction were conducted in duplicate. Methodological quality was assessed using AMSTAR and QUIPS criteria. The evidence supporting association with each variable was graded. RESULTS The search identified 1198 citations. Sixty-nine systematic reviews reporting 64 variables were included. The most frequently reported were maternal age (n = 5), body mass index (n = 6) and maternal diabetes (n = 5). Uterine artery Doppler appeared to have the best performance of any single test for stillbirth. The strongest evidence of association was for nulliparity and pre-existing hypertension. CONCLUSION We have identified variables relevant to the development of prediction models for stillbirth. Age, parity and prior adverse pregnancy outcomes had a more convincing association than the best performing tests, which were PAPP-A, PlGF and UtAD. The evidence was limited by high heterogeneity and lack of data on intervention bias. TWEETABLE ABSTRACT Review shows key predictors for use in developing models predicting stillbirth include age, prior pregnancy outcome and PAPP-A, PLGF and Uterine artery Doppler.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The study aim was to assess behavioral adjustment in preschool children with and without craniofacial microsomia (CFM). DESIGN Multisite cohort study of preschoolers with CFM ("cases") or without CFM ("controls"). PARTICIPANTS Mothers (89%), fathers (9%), and other caregivers (2%) of 161 preschoolers. OUTCOME MEASURE Child Behavior Check List (CBCL 1.5-5); linear regressions with standardized effect sizes (ES) adjusted for sociodemographic confounds. RESULTS Child Behavior Check Lists for 89 cases and 72 controls (average age 38.3 ± 1.9 months). Children were male (54%), white (69%), and of Latino ethnicity (47%). Cases had microtia with mandibular hypoplasia (52%), microtia only (30%), or other CFM-associated features (18%). Nearly 20% of cases had extracranial anomalies. Composite CBCL scores were in the average range compared to test norms and similar for cases and controls. On the subscales, cases' parents reported higher Anxious/Depressed scores (ES = 0.35, P = .04), Stress Problems (ES = 0.40, P = .04), Anxiety Problems (ES = 0.34, P = .04), and Autism Spectrum Problems (ES = 0.41, P = .02); however, the autism subscale primarily reflected speech concerns. Among cases, more problems were reported for children with extracranial anomalies and certain phenotypic categories with small ES. CONCLUSIONS Behavioral adjustment of preschoolers with CFM was comparable to peers. However, parental reports reflected greater concern for internalizing behaviors; thus, anxiety screening and interventions may benefit children with CFM. Among cases, more problems were reported for those with more complex presentations of CFM. Craniofacial microsomia-related speech problems should be distinguished from associated psychosocial symptoms during developmental evaluations.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To identify demographic factors that influence choosing nasoalveolar molding (NAM) in the treatment of cleft lip with or without cleft palate (CL±P), and NAM treatment compliance. DESIGN This work is a retrospective cohort study. SETTING Tertiary pediatric hospital. PATIENTS, PARTICIPANTS One hundred forty-nine patients with a diagnosis of unilateral complete CL±P receiving treatment when NAM was offered (January 1, 2008-July 26, 2016). MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE(S) Demographic variables collected included race, ethnicity, ZIP code, number of caregivers, caregiver employment status, and health insurance status. Medical variables collected included diagnosis, treatment pursued, compliance with NAM, completion of NAM, and the treating cleft surgeon and orthodontist. Data were analyzed via Fisher exact tests, χ2 tests, and multivariate logistic regression to identify factors that influence the decision to pursue NAM and treatment compliance. RESULTS Univariate analyses identified the following significant factors predicting the pursuit of NAM: race and insurance type (both P < .001), surgeon (P = .005), income level (P = .009), comorbidities (P = .015), and syndromic diagnosis (P = .033). Driving distance trended toward significance (P = .078). Multivariate regression analyses indicated that Asian race (P = .047), insurance type (P = .046), driving distance (P = .019), and surgeon (P = .017) were significant predictors of pursuit of NAM. CONCLUSIONS There are disparities in patient choice of NAM at our center for children with complete cleft lip. African American patient families were less likely to pursue this intervention. A stronger understanding of the barriers that lower income and minority patients face is needed in order to better characterize disparities in cleft care.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Fetal growth restriction (FGR) is associated with maternal cardiovascular changes. Sildenafil, a phosphodiesterase type-5 inhibitor, potentiates the actions of nitric oxide, and it has been suggested that it alters maternal hemodynamics, potentially improving placental perfusion. Recently, the Dutch STRIDER trial was stopped prematurely owing to excess neonatal mortality secondary to pulmonary hypertension. The main aim of this study was to investigate the effect of sildenafil on maternal hemodynamics in pregnancies with severe early-onset FGR. METHODS This was a cardiovascular substudy within a UK multicenter, placebo-controlled trial, in which 135 women with a singleton pregnancy and severe early-onset FGR (defined as a combination of estimated fetal weight or abdominal circumference below the 10th centile and absent/reversed end-diastolic flow in the umbilical artery on Doppler velocimetry, diagnosed between 22 + 0 and 29 + 6 weeks' gestation) were assigned randomly to receive either 25 mg sildenafil three times daily or placebo until 32 + 0 weeks' gestation or delivery. Maternal blood pressure (BP), heart rate (HR), augmentation index, pulse wave velocity (PWV), cardiac output, stroke volume (SV) and total peripheral resistance were recorded before randomization, 1-2 h and 48-72 h post-randomization, and 24-48 h postnatally. For continuous data, analysis was performed using repeated measures ANOVA methods including terms for timepoint, treatment allocation and their interaction. RESULTS Included were 134 women assigned randomly to sildenafil (n = 69) or placebo (n = 65) who had maternal BP and HR recorded at baseline. At 1-2 h post-randomization, compared with baseline values, sildenafil increased maternal HR by 4 bpm more than did placebo (mean difference, 5.00 bpm (95% CI, 1.00-12.00 bpm) vs 1.25 bpm (95% CI, -5.38 to 7.88 bpm); P = 0.004) and reduced systolic BP by 1 mmHg more (mean difference, -4.13 mmHg (95% CI, -9.94 to 1.44 mmHg) vs -2.75 mmHg (95% CI, -7.50 to 5.25 mmHg); P = 0.048). Even after adjusting for maternal mean arterial pressure, sildenafil reduced aortic PWV by 0.60 m/s more than did placebo (mean difference, -0.90 m/s (95% CI, -1.31 to -0.51 m/s) vs -0.26 m/s (95% CI, -0.75 to 0.59 m/s); P = 0.001). Sildenafil was associated with a non-significantly greater decrease in SV index after 1-2 h post-randomization than was placebo (mean difference, -5.50 mL/m2 (95% CI, -11.00 to -0.50 mL/m2 ) vs 0.00 mL/m2 (95% CI, -5.00 to 4.00 mL/m2 ); P = 0.056). CONCLUSIONS Sildenafil in a dose of 25 mg three times daily increases HR, reduces BP and reduces arterial stiffness in pregnancies complicated by severe early-onset FGR. These changes are short term, modest and consistent with the anticipated vasodilatory effect. They have no short- or long-term clinical impact on the mother. Copyright © 2019 ISUOG.

Abstract
Objective: Psychosocial issues associated with craniofacial diagnoses and the ongoing burden of care can impact the quality of life of patients and families, as well as treatment adherence and outcomes. Utilizing available literature and clinical expertise across 6 centers, the present article summarizes key psychosocial issues for the benefit of nonmental health medical providers and offers suggestions as to how all members of craniofacial teams can promote positive psychosocial outcomes. Results: Family adjustment across developmental phases is outlined, with strategies to support adaptive parental coping. Teasing is a common concern in craniofacial populations and medical providers can promote coping and social skills, as well as link families to mental health services when needed. Academic issues are described, alongside suggestions for medical providers to assist families with school advocacy and ensure access to appropriate services within the school setting. Medical providers are key in preparing patients and families for surgery, including consideration of medical, social, and logistical supports and barriers. As craniofacial care spans infancy to adulthood, medical providers are instrumental in assisting patients and families to navigate treatment transition periods. In addition to ongoing clinical team assessments, medical providers may utilize screening measures to identify and track patient and family adjustment in multiple areas of team care. Conclusions: Multidisciplinary providers play an important role in supporting positive adjustment in patients affected by craniofacial conditions and their families.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess the impact of maternal ethnicity on the risk of adverse perinatal outcome in pregnant women with chronic hypertension. METHODS Demographic and delivery data were collated of women with chronic hypertension and singleton pregnancy who delivered at one of three UK obstetric units between 2000 and 2014. Multivariable logistic regression models were used to calculate risk ratios (RR), according to ethnic group, for adverse perinatal outcome, adjusted for other maternal characteristics including age, parity, body mass index, smoking status, deprivation index and year of delivery. The impact of maternal ethnicity on birth-weight centile calculation was investigated by comparing the birth-weight centile chart customized for ethnicity (Gestation Related Optimal Weight; GROW) with a birth-weight centile calculator that does not adjust for that factor (INTERGROWTH-21st ). RESULTS The study cohort included 4481 pregnancies (4045 women) with chronic hypertension. Women of white ethnicity accounted for 47% (n = 2122) of the cohort and 36% (n = 1601) were of black, 8.5% (n = 379) of Asian and 8.5% (n = 379) of other ethnicity. The overall incidence of stillbirth was 1.6%, that of preterm birth < 37 weeks was 16% and that of fetal growth restriction (birth weight < 3rd centile) was 11%. Black women, compared with white women, had the highest risk for all adverse perinatal outcomes, with stillbirth occurring in 3.1% vs 0.6% of pregnancies (adjusted RR (aRR), 5.56 (95% CI, 2.79-11.09)), preterm birth < 37 weeks in 21% vs 11% (aRR, 1.70 (95% CI, 1.43-2.01)) and birth weight < 3rd centile in 15% vs 7.4% (aRR, 2.07 (95% CI, 1.71-2.51)). Asian women, compared with white women, were also at increased risk of adverse perinatal outcome, with stillbirth occurring in 1.6% vs 0.6% (aRR, 3.03 (95% CI, 1.11-8.28)), preterm birth < 37 weeks in 20% vs 11% (aRR, 1.82 (95% CI, 1.41-2.35)) and birth weight < 3rd centile in 12% vs 7.4% (aRR, 1.69 (95% CI, 1.24-2.30)). The sensitivity and specificity for prediction of infants requiring neonatal unit admission were 40% and 93%, respectively, for those with birth weight < 3rd centile according to GROW charts, compared with 16% and 96%, respectively, for those with birth weight < 3rd centile according to INTERGROWTH-21st charts. CONCLUSIONS Black ethnicity, compared with white, is associated with the greatest risk of adverse perinatal outcome in women with chronic hypertension, even after adjusting for other maternal characteristics. Women of Asian ethnicity are also at increased risk, but to a lesser extent. Copyright © 2018 ISUOG. Published by John Wiley & Sons Ltd.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Craniofacial microsomia (CFM) is a congenital condition that typically involves hypoplasia of the ear and jaw. It is often associated with adverse effects such as hearing loss and sleep-disordered breathing. There is little research on its etiology. METHODS We conducted a case-control study from maternal interview data collected from mothers of infants with and without CFM. The study included 108 children with and 84 children without CFM. Logistic regression with adjustment for demographic factors was used to evaluate associations between maternal exposures of interest and risk for CFM overall, as well as for different phenotypic sub-groups of children on the CFM spectrum. RESULTS We found a statistically significant association between diabetes mellitus (DM) and CFM (OR 4.01, 95% CI 1.6-10.5). The association was slightly attenuated after adjustment for BMI. Higher parity was also associated with increased risk for CFM (OR 2.0, 95% CI 1.0-4.0). Vitamin A consumption and/or liver consumption was associated with a 70% lower risk compared with non-users (OR 0.3, 95% 0.1-0.8). Maternal age at the time of pregnancy was not associated with CFM. CONCLUSIONS These analyses contribute evidence linking maternal DM with an elevated risk of having an infant with CFM, which is consistent with previous research and adds to the body of knowledge about the strength of this association. Further study is warranted to understand the potential mechanisms underlying the effect of DM in the developing embryo.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The Craniofacial microsomia: Longitudinal Outcomes in Children pre-Kindergarten (CLOCK) study is a longitudinal cohort study of neurobehavioral outcomes in infants and toddlers with craniofacial microsomia (CFM). In this article, we review the data collection and methods used to characterize this complex condition and describe the demographic and clinical characteristics of the cohort. SETTING Craniofacial and otolaryngology clinics at 5 study sites. PARTICIPANTS Infants with CFM and unaffected infants (controls) ages 12 to 24 months were recruited from the same geographical regions and followed to age 36 to 48 months. METHODS Phenotypic, neurodevelopmental, and facial expression assessments were completed during the first and third waves of data collection (time 1 and time 3, respectively). Medical history data were taken at both of these time points and during an intermediate parent phone interview (time 2). RESULTS Our cohort includes 108 cases and 84 controls. Most cases and controls identified as white and 55% of cases and 37% of controls identified as Hispanic. Nearly all cases had microtia (95%) and 59% had mandibular hypoplasia. Cases received extensive clinical care in infancy, with 59% receiving care in a craniofacial clinic and 28% experiencing at least one surgery. Study visits were completed at a study site (92%) or at the participant's home (8%). CONCLUSIONS The CLOCK study represents an effort to overcome the challenges of characterizing the phenotypic and neurodevelopmental outcomes of CFM in a large, demographically and geographically diverse cohort.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine demographics and practice patterns of surgeons treating velopharyngeal dysfunction (VPD) in patients with 22q11.2 deletion syndrome (22q11.2DS). METHODS An anonymous electronic survey study was administered to the surgical membership of the American Cleft Palate-Craniofacial Association and the Society for Ear Nose and Throat Advances in Children. The survey queried surgeon demographics and differences in management practices for submucous cleft palate (SMCP), pharyngoplasty algorithms, and self-reported complications for nonsyndromic versus 22q11.2DS patients. RESULTS 126 surveys were returned from 9 international regions with the majority from the United States (73%), followed by Western Europe (9.5%) and Canada (7.9%). Plastic surgery was the most common specialty (61.9%), followed by otolaryngology (27.8%). 88.1% reported fellowship training, and 33% completed multiple fellowships. Prior to proceeding with pharyngoplasty in 22q11.2DS patients, surgeons required the following assessments: speech evaluation (79.4%), velopharyngeal imaging (51.6%), cardiac evaluation (50.0%), carotid artery MRI (29.4%), and cervical spine x-rays (11.1%). Nasoendoscopy was the most common modality used for imaging the velopharynx. Overall, providers managed patients with 22q11.2DS similarly to nonsyndromic patients, with several significant exceptions including that they were more likely to perform SMCP repair alone as a first approach in nonsyndromic patients (p = 0.031) and posterior pharyngeal flap without SMCP repair in those with 22q11.2DS (p = 0.017). CONCLUSIONS Practice patterns for the management of VPD in patients with 22q11.2DS vary across providers. Further collaborative studies are needed to develop optimal treatment paradigms for VPD in patients with 22q11.2 DS.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To determine whether infant cases with craniofacial microsomia (CFM) evidence poorer neurodevelopmental status than demographically similar infants without craniofacial diagnoses ("controls"), and to examine cases' neurodevelopmental outcomes by facial phenotype and hearing status. STUDY DESIGN Multicenter, observational study of 108 cases and 84 controls aged 12-24 months. Participants were assessed by the Bayley Scales of Infant and Toddler Development-Third Edition and the Preschool Language Scales-Fifth Edition (PLS-5). Facial features were classified with the Phenotypic Assessment Tool for Craniofacial Microsomia. RESULTS After adjustment for demographic variables, there was little difference in Bayley Scales of Infant and Toddler Development-Third Edition or Preschool Language Scales-Fifth Edition outcomes between cases and controls. Estimates of mean differences ranged from -0.23 to 1.79 corresponding to standardized effect sizes of -.02 to 0.12 (P values from .30 to .88). Outcomes were better among females and those with higher socioeconomic status. Among cases, facial phenotype and hearing status showed little to no association with outcomes. Analysis of individual test scores indicated that 21% of cases and 16% of controls were developmentally delayed (OR 0.68, 95% CI 0.29-1.61). CONCLUSIONS Although learning problems have been observed in older children with CFM, we found no evidence of developmental or language delay among infants. Variation in outcomes across prior studies may reflect differences in ascertainment methods and CFM diagnostic criteria.

Abstract
Care of the patient with cleft lip and/or palate remains complex. Prior attempts at aggregating data to study the effectiveness of specific interventions or overall treatment protocols have been hindered by a lack of data standards. There exists a critical need to better define the outcomes- particularly those that matter most to patients and their families-and to standardize the methods by which these outcomes will be measured. This report summarizes the recommendations of an international, multidisciplinary working group with regard to which outcomes a typical cleft team could track, how those outcomes could be measured and recorded, and what strategies may be employed to sustainably implement a system for prospective data collection. It is only by agreeing on a common, standard set of outcome measures for the comprehensive appraisal of cleft care that intercenter comparisons can become possible. This is important for quality-improvement endeavors, comparative effectiveness research, and value-based health-care reform.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Higher 25(OH)D3 levels are associated with lower HbA1c, but there are limited UK interventional trials assessing the effect of cholecalciferol on HbA1c. AIMS (1) To assess the baseline 25(OH)D3 status in a Manchester cohort of children with type 1 diabetes (T1D). (2) To determine the effect of cholecalciferol administration on HbA1c. METHODS Children with T1D attending routine clinic appointments over three months in late winter/early spring had blood samples taken with consent. Participants with a 25(OH)D3 level <50 nmol/L were treated with a one-off cholecalciferol dose of 100,000 (2-10 years) or 160,000 (>10 years) units. HbA1c levels before and after treatment were recorded. RESULTS Vitamin D levels were obtained from 51 children. 35 were Caucasian, 11 South Asian and 5 from other ethnic groups. 42 were vitamin D deficient, but 2 were excluded from the analysis. All South Asian children were vitamin D deficient, with mean 25(OH)D3 of 28 nmol/L. In Caucasians, there was a negative relationship between baseline 25(OH)D3 level and HbA1c (r = -0.484, P < 0.01). In treated participants, there was no significant difference in mean HbA1c at 3 months (t = 1.010, P = 0.328) or at 1 year (t = -1.173, P = 0.248) before and after treatment. One-way ANCOVA, controlling for age, gender, ethnicity, BMI and diabetes duration showed no difference in Δ HbA1c level. CONCLUSION We report important findings at baseline, but in children treated with a stat dose of cholecalciferol, there was no effect on HbA1c. Further studies with larger sample sizes and using maintenance therapy are required.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To examine family functioning related to sociodemographic and clinical characteristics in youth with cleft lip and/or palate (CL/P). DESIGN Cross-sectional, multi-site investigation. SETTING Six U.S. cleft centers. PATIENTS/PARTICIPANTS A diverse sample of 1200 children with CL/P and their parents. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE Parents completed the Family Environment Scale (FES), which assesses three domains of family functioning: cohesion (or closeness), expressiveness (open expression of feelings), and conflict. Demographic and clinical characteristics were also assessed including race, ethnicity, type of insurance, and surgical recommendations. RESULTS The FES scores for families seeking team evaluations for their youth with CL/P (mean age = 11.6 years) fall within the average range compared with normative samples. Families receiving surgical recommendations for their youth also had FES scores in the average range, yet families of children recommended for functional surgery reported greater cohesion, expressiveness, and less conflict compared with those recommended for aesthetic surgery (P < .05). For cohesion and expressiveness, significant main effects for race (P = .012, P < .0001, respectively) and ethnicity (P = .004, P < .0001, respectively) were found but not for their interaction. No significant differences were found on the conflict domain. Families with private insurance reported significantly greater cohesion (P < .001) and expressiveness (P < .001) than did families with public insurance. CONCLUSIONS Family functioning across domains was in the average range. However, observed differences by race, ethnicity, type of insurance, and surgical recommendation may warrant consideration in clinical management for patients and families.

Abstract
Cosmetic and reconstructive breast surgery has increased in popularity among adolescents in the United States. As more adolescents pursue these procedures, an understanding of the psychological aspects of these surgeries becomes increasingly important for the benefit of both patients and providers. The authors review the psychological aspects of cosmetic and reconstructive surgical breast procedures as they pertain to adolescents, including augmentation mammoplasty, gynecomastia correction, breast reduction, and asymmetry correction. They include a discussion of the medicolegal and ethical implications of these procedures and recommendations for clinical management.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess the clinical effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of endosonography (followed by surgical staging if endosonography was negative), compared with standard surgical staging alone, in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who are otherwise candidates for surgery with curative intent. DESIGN A prospective, international, open-label, randomised controlled study, with a trial-based economic analysis. SETTING Four centres: Ghent University Hospital, Belgium; Leuven University Hospitals, Belgium; Leiden University Medical Centre, the Netherlands; and Papworth Hospital, UK. PARTICIPANTS INCLUSION CRITERIA known/suspected NSCLC, with suspected mediastinal lymph node involvement; otherwise eligible for surgery with curative intent; clinically fit for endosonography and surgery; and no evidence of metastatic disease. EXCLUSION CRITERIA previous lung cancer treatment; concurrent malignancy; uncorrected coagulopathy; and not suitable for surgical staging. INTERVENTIONS Study patients were randomised to either surgical staging alone (n = 118) or endosonography followed by surgical staging if endosonography was negative (n = 123). Endosonography diagnostic strategy used endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration combined with endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration, followed by surgical staging if these tests were negative. Patients with no evidence of mediastinal metastases or tumour invasion were referred for surgery with curative intent. If evidence of malignancy was found, patients were referred for chemoradiotherapy. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES The main clinical outcomes were sensitivity (positive diagnostic test/nodal involvement during any diagnostic test or thoracotomy) and negative predictive value (NPV) of each diagnostic strategy for the detection of N2/N3 metastases, unnecessary thoracotomy and complication rates. The primary economic outcome was cost-utility of the endosonography strategy compared with surgical staging alone, up to 6 months after randomisation, from a UK NHS perspective. RESULTS Clinical and resource-use data were available for all 241 patients, and complete utilities were available for 144. Sensitivity for detecting N2/N3 metastases was 79% [41/52; 95% confidence interval (CI) 66% to 88%] for the surgical arm compared with 94% (62/66; 95% CI 85% to 98%) for the endosonography strategy (p = 0.02). Corresponding NPVs were 86% (66/77; 95% CI 76% to 92%) and 93% (57/61; 95% CI 84% to 97%; p = 0.26). There were 21/118 (18%) unnecessary thoracotomies in the surgical arm compared with 9/123 (7%) in the endosonography arm (p = 0.02). Complications occurred in 7/118 (6%) in the surgical arm and 6/123 (5%) in the endosonography arm (p = 0.78): one pneumothorax related to endosonography and 12 complications related to surgical staging. Patients in the endosonography arm had greater EQ-5D (European Quality of Life-5 Dimensions) utility at the end of staging (0.117; 95% CI 0.042 to 0.192; p = 0.003). There were no other significant differences in utility. The main difference in resource use was the number of thoracotomies: 66% patients in the surgical arm compared with 53% in the endosonography arm. Resource use was similar between the groups in all other items. The 6-month cost of the endosonography strategy was £9713 (95% CI £7209 to £13,307) per patient versus £10,459 (£7732 to £13,890) for the surgical arm, mean difference £746 (95% CI -£756 to £2494). The mean difference in quality-adjusted life-year was 0.015 (95% CI -0.023 to 0.052) in favour of endosonography, so this strategy was cheaper and more effective. CONCLUSIONS Endosonography (followed by surgical staging if negative) had higher sensitivity and NPVs, resulted in fewer unnecessary thoracotomies and better quality of life during staging, and was slightly more effective and less expensive than surgical staging alone. Future work could investigate the need for confirmatory mediastinoscopy following negative endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration (EUS-FNA) and endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS-TBNA), the diagnostic accuracy of EUS-FNA or EBUS-TBNA separately and the delivery of both EUS-FNA or EBUS-TBNA by suitably trained chest physicians.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Magnesium sulphate (MgSO4) is regarded as the most effective prophylactic and therapeutic agent for eclampsia. Although well studied and widely used in high income countries (HICs), MgSO4 is under utilized in low and middle income countries (LMICs) due to many factors including lack of adequately trained health care providers, supplies for administration, or the MgSO4 itself, in addition to fear of potential adverse effects. OBJECTIVES To systematically review the dosing and effectiveness of MgSO4 regimens administered in LMICs to women with pre-eclampsia or eclampsia. METHODS We searched Medline, EMBASE, IPA, CINAHL, CDSR and CENTRAL databases for English language randomized controlled trials (RCT) and observational studies of MgSO4 regimens administered in LMICs to women with pre-eclampsia or eclampsia. Two authors independently reviewed search results and extracted relevant data from eligible studies. No quality assessment was performed. RESULTS Twenty two papers (7 RCT and 15 observational studies) from 12 LMIC met our inclusion criteria, of which 21 were conducted in hospital settings. Two studied MgSO4 for eclampsia prevention ,14 for eclampsia treatment and 6 studied MgSO4 for both. In 20 studies, both loading and maintenance MgSO4 dosing was administered, with intravenous (IV) or combined IV and intramuscular (IM) loading doses of 4-15g and IV or IM maintenance doses up to 2g/h. Five studies used only the IV route of administration, while the remainder coupled IV with IM administration. All studies were effective at preventing the initiation and/or recurrence of eclamptic seizures. One study of 265 women with eclampsia found that MgSO4 loading dose administration in the community (4g IV over 20min plus 3g IM in each buttock) before referral and administration of maintenance therapy in hospital was more effective in decreasing recurrent eclampsia compared with the standard practice of referral to hospital where the initial dose of MgSO4 was administered [RR of 0.23, 95% CI 0.11, 0.49]. The two studies of 4g IV plus 10g IM loading dose-only regimens did not show a significant reduction in eclamptic seizures compared with identical loading dose plus 5g/4h IM maintenance dose regimens [RR of 1.38, 95% CI of 0.23, 8.45]. However the combined sample size was small (N=180 women). CONCLUSION In LMICs, most studies of MgSO4 for pre-eclampsia or eclampsia were conducted in high level health care facilities and administered MgSO4 by the IV route, at least in part. The one study of community administration of a MgSO4 loading dose showed this approach to be effective. There are limited data to support loading dose-only regimens.

Abstract
Most patients who seek appearance-enhancing medical treatments report some degree of body image dissatisfaction, which is believed to motivate the pursuit of these treatments. However, patients with extreme body image dissatisfaction may be suffering from a psychiatric disorder known as body dysmorphic disorder (BDD). This article reviews BDD, including its clinical features and prevalence in medical settings. Although patients with BDD frequently seek cosmetic treatments to address their appearance-related distress, such treatments are rarely beneficial. The article concludes with recommendations for patient and provider safety.

Abstract
This large, multisite study investigated female college students' experiences with and attitudes about cosmetic surgery. The study also assessed the relationship between several aspects of body image, including appearance satisfaction and investment and symptoms of body dysmorphic disorder, and interest in cosmetic surgery. Thirty (5 percent) of the 559 women surveyed reported that they had undergone cosmetic surgery. Two thirds of respondents reported knowing someone who had received cosmetic surgery, and approximately one third indicated that a family member had undergone surgery. Overall, participants held relatively favorable attitudes about surgery. Regression analysis suggested that a greater psychological investment in physical appearance and greater internalization of mass media images of beauty predicted more favorable attitudes toward cosmetic surgery. Fourteen women (2.5 percent) screened positive for body dysmorphic disorder based on the nature and severity of their self-reported body-image concerns. Results of this study provide new information on young women's experiences and attitudes about cosmetic surgery and how these attitudes relate to body image.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although several studies have investigated patient satisfaction and changes in body image following aesthetic plastic surgery, few have investigated more specific dimensions of body image, including dysphoric emotions that occur in specific social situations or body image quality of life. In addition, few studies have investigated changes in body image that may occur in concert with changes in more general areas of psychosocial functioning, such as depressive symptoms and self-esteem. OBJECTIVE This prospective, multi-site study investigated postoperative satisfaction and changes in psychosocial status following cosmetic surgery. METHODS One hundred patients recruited from 8 geographically diverse surgical practices completed psychometric measures of body image, depressive symptoms, and self-esteem prior to surgery. Seventy-two patients completed the 3-month postoperative assessment, 67 completed the 6-month assessment, and 63 completed the 12-month assessment. All statistical tests on changes after surgery were conducted using the sample of 72 patients who completed the 3-month assessment. A Last Observation Carried Forward analysis was used to account for patients who did not complete the subsequent follow-up assessments. In addition, they reported their postoperative satisfaction as well as self-rated attractiveness at the 3 postoperative assessment points. RESULTS Eighty-seven percent of patients reported satisfaction with their postoperative outcomes. Patients also reported significant improvements in their overall appearance, as well as the appearance of the feature altered by surgery, at each of the postoperative assessment points. Patients experienced significant improvements in their overall body image, their degree of dissatisfaction with the feature altered by surgery, and the frequency of negative body image emotions in specific social situations. All of these improvements were maintained 12 months after surgery. CONCLUSIONS These results add to a growing body of literature documenting improvements in body image following cosmetic surgery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study investigated the psychiatric diagnoses and psychiatric treatment histories of 90 bariatric surgery candidates. METHODS Prior to surgery, all participants completed the Weight and Lifestyle Inventory, the Questionnaire on Eating and Weight Patterns, and the Beck Depression Inventory-II. Participants also underwent a behavioral/psychological evaluation with a psychologist, which reviewed responses to the measures and provided further assessment of participants' psychiatric status. The evaluation also was used to produce a recommendation on the patients' psychological appropriateness for surgery. RESULTS Almost two-thirds of patients received a psychiatric diagnosis, the most common of which was major depressive disorder. Nearly two-fifths of all participants, and more than half of those given a psychiatric diagnosis, were engaged in some form of psychiatric treatment at the time of the evaluation. Nevertheless, 64% of patients were unconditionally approved for surgery; 31% were recommended for additional psychiatric or nutritional counseling prior to surgery. Three patients were not recommended for surgery. CONCLUSION Results of this study provide important information on the preoperative psychiatric status and treatment histories of bariatric surgery candidates. Given the increasing population of bariatric surgery patients, evaluation of patients' preoperative psychiatric status may play an important role in maximizing successful postoperative outcomes.
