Abstract
Systemic AL amyloidosis is a challenging disease for which many patients are considered frail in daily clinical practice. However, no study has so far addressed frailty and its impact on the outcome of these patients. We built a simple score to predict mortality based on three frailty-associated variables: age, ECOG performance status (<2 vs. ≥2) and NT-proBNP (<8500 vs. ≥8500 ng/L). Four-hundred and sixteen consecutive newly diagnosed patients diagnosed at ten sites from the Spanish Myeloma Group were eligible for the study. The score was developed in a derivation cohort from a referral center, and it was externally validated in a multicenter cohort. Multivariate analysis showed that the three variables were independent predictors of survival. The score was able to discriminate four groups of patients in terms of overall survival and early mortality in both cohorts. Comorbidity was also analyzed with the Charlson comorbidity index, but it did not reach statistical significance in the model. A nomogram was created to easily estimate the mortality risk of each patient at each time point. This score is a simple, robust, and efficient approach to dynamically assess frailty-dependent mortality both at diagnosis and throughout follow-up. The optimal treatment for frail AL amyloidosis patients remains to be determined but we suggest that the estimation of frailty-associated risk could complement current staging systems, adding value in clinical decision-making in this complex scenario.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The primary objective of the core data set is to reduce heterogeneity and promote harmonization among data sources in EM, thereby reducing the time needed to execute real life data collection efforts. Recently, a group led by the Multiple Sclerosis Data Alliance has developed a core data set for collecting real-world data on multiple sclerosis (MS) globally. Our objective was to adapt this global data set to the needs of Latin America, so that it can be implemented by the registries already developed and in the process of development in the region. MATERIAL AND METHODS A working group was formed regionally, the core data set created globally was adapted (translation process into Spanish, incorporation of regional variables and consensus on variables to be used). Consensus was obtained through the remote Delphi methodology of a round of questionnaires and remote discussion of the core data set variables. RESULTS A total of 25 professionals from Latin America carried out the adaptation process between November 2022 and July 2023. Agreement was established on a core data set of nine categories and 45 variables, version 2023 to suggest its implementation in developed or developing registries, and MS cohorts in the region. CONCLUSION The core data set seeks to harmonize the variables collected by registries and cohorts in MS in Latin America in order to facilitate said collection and allow collaboration between sources. Its implementation will facilitate real life data collection and collaboration in the region.

Abstract
PURPOSE The gut microbiota plays important roles in health and disease. We questioned whether the gut microbiota and related metabolites are altered in monoclonal gammopathies and evaluated their potential role in multiple myeloma and its response to treatment. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN We used 16S rRNA sequencing to characterize and compare the gut microbiota of patients with monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (n = 11), smoldering multiple myeloma (n = 9), newly diagnosed multiple myeloma (n = 11), relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma (n = 6), or with complete remission (n = 9). Short-chain fatty acids (SCFA) were quantified in serum and tested in cell lines. Relevant metabolites were validated in a second cohort of 62 patients. RESULTS Significant differences in alpha- and beta diversity were present across the groups and both were lower in patients with relapse/refractory disease and higher in patients with complete remission after treatment. Differences were found in the abundance of several microbiota taxa across disease progression and in response to treatment. Bacteria involved in SCFA production, including Prevotella, Blautia, Weissella, and Agathobacter, were more represented in the premalignant or complete remission samples, and patients with higher levels of Agathobacter showed better overall survival. Serum levels of butyrate and propionate decreased across disease progression and butyrate was positively associated with a better response. Both metabolites had antiproliferative effects in multiple myeloma cell lines. CONCLUSIONS We demonstrate that SCFAs metabolites and the gut microbiota associated with their production might have beneficial effects in disease evolution and response to treatment, underscoring its therapeutic potential and value as a predictor.

Abstract
Immunoparesis (IP) in multiple myeloma (MM) patients can be measured by classic assessment of immunoglobulin (Ig) levels or by analysis of the uninvolved heavy/light chain pair of the same immunoglobulin (uHLC) by the Hevylite® assay. In this study we evaluate the prognostic value of recovery from IP measured by classic total Ig and uHLC assessment in newly diagnosed MM transplant-eligible (NDMM-TE) patients with intensive treatment and its association with Minimal Residual Disease (MRD). Patients were enrolled and treated in the PETHEMA/GEM2012MENOS65 trial and continued in the PETHEMA/GEM2014MAIN trial. Total Ig (IgG, IgA and IgM) and uHLC were analyzed in a central laboratory at diagnosis, after consolidation treatment and after the first year of maintenance. MRD was analyzed by next generation flow cytometry after consolidation (sensitivity level 2x10-6). We found no differences in progression free survival (PFS) between patients who recovered and patients who didn't recover from IP after consolidation when examining classic total Ig and uHLC. However, after the first year of maintenance, in contrast to patients with classic IP, patients with recovery from uHLC IP had longer PFS than patients without recovery, with hazard ratio of 0.42 (CI95% 0.21-0.81; p=0.008). Multivariate analysis with Cox proportional-hazards regression models confirmed recovery from uHLC IP after the first year of maintenance as an independent prognostic factor for PFS, with an increase in C-statistic of 0.05 (-0.04-0.14; p<0.001) when adding uHLC IP recovery. Moreover, we observed that MRD status and uHLC IP recovery affords complementary information for risk stratification. In conclusion, recovery from uHLC IP after one year of maintenance is an independent prognostic factor for PFS in NDMM-TE patients who receive intensive treatment. Immune reconstitution, measured as recovery from uHLC IP, provides complementary prognostic information to MRD assessment.

Abstract
PURPOSE Stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) has been firmly established as a treatment choice for patients with oligometastases, as it has demonstrated both safety and efficacy by consistently achieving high rates of local control. Moreover, it offers potential survival benefits for carefully selected patients in real-world clinical settings. METHODS Between January 2008 and May 2020, a total of 149 patients (with 414 liver metastases) received treatment. The Active Breathing Coordinator device was used for 68 patients, while respiratory gating was used for 65 and abdominal compression was used for 16 patients. The most common histological finding was colorectal adenocarcinoma, with 37.6% of patients having three or more metastases, and 18% having two metastases. The prescribed dose ranged from 36 to 60 Gy, delivered in 3-5 fractions. RESULTS Local control rates at 2 and 3 years were 76.1% and 61.2%, respectively, with no instances of local recurrence after 3 years. Factors negatively impacting local control included colorectal histology, lower prescribed dose, and the occurrence of new liver metastases. The median overall survival from SBRT was 32 months, with the presence of metastases outside the liver and the development of new liver metastases after SBRT affecting survival. The median disease-free survival was 10 months. No substantial differences in both local control and survival were observed between the respiratory motion control techniques employed. Treatment tolerance was excellent, with only one patient experiencing acute grade IV thrombocytopenia and two patients suffering from ≥ grade II chronic toxicity. CONCLUSION For radical management of single or multiple liver metastases, SBRT is an effective and well-tolerated treatment option. Regardless of the technology employed, experienced physicians can achieve similarly positive outcomes. However, additional studies are required to elucidate prognostic factors that can facilitate improved patient selection.

Abstract
Planets with radii between that of the Earth and Neptune (hereafter referred to as 'sub-Neptunes') are found in close-in orbits around more than half of all Sun-like stars1,2. However, their composition, formation and evolution remain poorly understood3. The study of multiplanetary systems offers an opportunity to investigate the outcomes of planet formation and evolution while controlling for initial conditions and environment. Those in resonance (with their orbital periods related by a ratio of small integers) are particularly valuable because they imply a system architecture practically unchanged since its birth. Here we present the observations of six transiting planets around the bright nearby star HD 110067. We find that the planets follow a chain of resonant orbits. A dynamical study of the innermost planet triplet allowed the prediction and later confirmation of the orbits of the rest of the planets in the system. The six planets are found to be sub-Neptunes with radii ranging from 1.94R⊕ to 2.85R⊕. Three of the planets have measured masses, yielding low bulk densities that suggest the presence of large hydrogen-dominated atmospheres.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES This study aimed to examine the clinical utility of the radiographic evaluation of the bicipital groove in predicting long head of biceps tendon (LHBT) pathology. MATERIAL AND METHODS A prospective study was conducted, and sixty consecutive patients proposed to shoulder arthroscopic surgery were selected. Before surgery, a radiographic evaluation was performed with a supine and a Fisk radiograph. Most supine radiographs (>75%) were non-interpretable and were excluded from the study. As some Fisk radiographs (26.7%) were also non-interpretable, that left 44 interpretable radiographs in the study. These were measured for medial opening angle, total opening angle, width and depth of the bicipital groove. The radiographic measurements and the presence of LHBT pathology, as assessed at arthroscopy, were correlated. RESULTS Radiographic evaluation of the bicipital groove showed a mean medial opening angle of 53 ± 15° (23-90), a mean total opening angle of 80 ± 26° (30-135), a mean width of 10.3 ± 2.5 mm (6-19) and a mean depth of 4.1 ± 1.5 mm (1-8). Men had higher medial opening angle (60 vs 50°, p = 0.044) and wider grooves (11.9 vs 9.7 mm, p = 0.019). Twenty-five patients (56.8%) were found to have an abnormal LHBT. No correlation was found between the radiographic measurements and LHBT pathology. Only age was correlated with a LHBT lesion (61.8 vs 46.3 years, p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Our results show that there is no correlation between radiographic morphologic evaluation of the bicipital groove and LHBT pathology.

Abstract
Anti-CD38 monoclonal antibody (MoAB) therapy has significantly improved the prognosis of patients with multiple myeloma. However, not all patients sustain durable responses. We aimed to describe the natural history of patients relapsed or refractory (R/R) to CD38 MoAB therapy. We performed a single-center, retrospective analysis of the clinical characteristics and outcomes of 81 patients with multiple myeloma who progressed after treatment with daratumumab. Our cohort was heavily pretreated, with a median of two lines prior to daratumumab and only 17 patients received daratumumab as a first line. A total of 38.2% had received a previous autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT), and 61.7% had received both an immunomodulatory drug (IMID) and a proteasome inhibitor (PI). The median overall survival (OS) was 21 months for the global cohort but it decreased to 14 months for triple-class refractory patients and 5 months for penta-refractory patients. Most of the patients (83.9%) received treatment after daratumumab progression, in many cases with second generation IMID or PI, but seven patients were treated with anti-BCMA therapy and three patients received CART therapy within a clinical trial. In conclusion, patients R/R to daratumumab represent an unmet clinical need with poor prognosis and in need of incorporation of new treatments.

Abstract
Survival in multiple myeloma has improved significantly in recent years, especially in young patients. We reviewed the evolution of the survival of patients with MM in three groups based on age at MM diagnosis over three time periods between 1999 and 2020 at our 12 de Octubre Hospital institution (H12O). Then, to confirm our results, we used data from TriNetx, a global health research platform that includes patients from Europe to US. Finally, we analysed differences in the patterns of treatment between networks across the world. Kaplan‒Meier analysis was used to estimate survival probabilities, and between-group differences were tested using the log-rank test and hazard ratio. For patients from H12O, the median OS was 35.61, 55.59 and 68.67 months for the 1999-2009, 2010-2014 and 2015-2020 cohorts, respectively (p = 0.0001). Among all patients included in the EMEA network, the median OS was 20.32 months versus 34.75 months from 1999-2009 versus 2010-2014. The median OS from the 2010-2014 versus 2015-2020 time cohorts was 34.75 months versus 54.43 months, respectively. In relation to the US cohort, the median OS from before 2010 versus 2010-2014 was not reached in either time cohort and neither when comparing the 2010-2014 versus 2015-2019 time cohorts. Bortezomib is the most commonly used drug in the EMEA cohort, while lenalidomide is the most commonly used drug in the US cohort. This large-scale study based on real-world data confirms the previous finding that MM patients have increased their survival in the last two decades.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Abnormal endotoxin activity in critically ill patients has been described in the absence of Gram-negative bacterial (GNB) infection. As disease severity seems to be crucial in the detection of this phenomenon, we decided to assess and compare endotoxin exposure in those patients representing the critical situation: septic shock and cardiogenic shock. DESIGN Prospective, observational non intervention study. SETTING Critical Care Department of a University tertiary hospital. PATIENTS Cardiogenic shock (CS) and septic shock (SS) patients. INTERVENTIONS None. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS Follow-up was performed for the first three days. Inflammatory biomarkers (C-reactive protein, procalcitonin and interleuquin-6) and IgM antiendotoxin-core antibodies titter (IgM EndoCAb) were daily analyzed. Sixty-two patients were included; twenty-five patients with SS and thirty-seven with CS. Microbial etiology was established in 23 SS patients (92%) and GNB were present in 13 cases (52%). Although infection was suspected and even treated in 30 CS patients (81%), any episode could be finally confirmed. EndoCAb consumption was more intense in SS patients, although twenty-two CS patients (59.5%) had IgM anti-endotoxin value below 10th percentile range for healthy people. No statistically significant difference in endotoxin exposure was detected between Gram-positive and Gram-negative infections in the SS group. Endotoxin exposure ability to distinguish between SS and CS was moderate (AUC 0.7892, 95% IC: 0.6564-0.9218). CONCLUSIONS In the severely ill patient some mechanisms take place allowing endotoxin incursion and therefore blurring the limits of diseases pathophysiology. Our work representatively shows how exposure to endotoxin was not fully capable of distinguishing between CS and SS.

Abstract
Belantamab-mafodotin (belamaf) is a novel antibody-drug conjugate targeting B-cell maturation antigen that showed anti-myeloma activity in patients with relapsed and refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM). We performed an observational, retrospective, and multicenter study aimed to assess the efficacy and safety of single-agent belamaf in 156 Spanish patients with RRMM. The median number of prior therapy lines was 5 (range, 1-10), and 88% of patients were triple-class refractory. Median follow-up was 10.9 months (range, 1-28.6). The overall response rate was 41.8% (≥CR 13.5%, VGPR 9%, PR 17.3%, MR 2%). The median progression-free survival was 3.61 months (95% CI, 2.1-5.1) and 14.47 months (95% CI, 7.91-21.04) in patients achieving at least MR (p < 0.001). Median overall survival in the entire cohort and in patients with MR or better was 11.05 months (95% CI, 8.7-13.3) and 23.35 (NA-NA) months, respectively (p < 0.001). Corneal events (87.9%; grade ≥ 3, 33.7%) were the most commonly adverse events, while thrombocytopenia and infections occurred in 15.4% and 15% of patients, respectively. Two (1.3%) patients discontinued treatment permanently due to ocular toxicity. Belamaf showed a noticeably anti-myeloma activity in this real-life series of patients, particularly among those achieving MR or better. The safety profile was manageable and consistent with prior studies.

Abstract
The combination of visual assessment of whole body [18F]FDG PET images and evaluation of bone marrow samples by Multiparameter Flow Cytometry (MFC) or Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) is currently the most common clinical practice for the detection of Measurable Residual Disease (MRD) in Multiple Myeloma (MM) patients. In this study, radiomic features extracted from the bone marrow biopsy locations are analyzed and compared to those extracted from the whole bone marrow in order to study the representativeness of these biopsy locations in the image-based MRD assessment. Whole body [18F]FDG PET of 39 patients with newly diagnosed MM were included in the database, and visually evaluated by experts in nuclear medicine. A methodology for the segmentation of biopsy sites from PET images, including sternum and posterior iliac crest, and their subsequent quantification is proposed. First, starting from the bone marrow segmentation, a segmentation of the biopsy sites is performed. Then, segmentations are quantified extracting SUV metrics and radiomic features from the [18F]FDG PET images and are evaluated by Mann-Whitney U-tests as valuable features differentiating PET+/PET- and MFC+ /MFC- groups. Moreover, correlation between whole bone marrow and biopsy sites is studied by Spearman ρ rank. Classification performance of the radiomics features is evaluated applying seven machine learning algorithms. Statistical analyses reveal that some images features are significant in PET+/PET- differentiation, such as SUVmax, Gray Level Non-Uniformity or Entropy, especially with a balanced database where 16 of the features show a p value < 0.001. Correlation analyses between whole bone marrow and biopsy sites results in significant and acceptable coefficients, with 11 of the variables reaching a correlation coefficient greater than 0.7, with a maximum of 0.853. Machine learning algorithms demonstrate high performances in PET+/PET- classification reaching a maximum AUC of 0.974, but not for MFC+/MFC- classification. The results demonstrate the representativeness of sample sites as well as the effectiveness of extracted features (SUV metrics and radiomic features) from the [18F]FDG PET images in MRD assessment in MM patients.

Abstract
The neuropeptide neurotensin (NTS) is involved in regulating the reproductive axis and is expressed at each level of this axis (hypothalamus-pituitary-gonads). This dependence on estrogen levels has been widely demonstrated in the hypothalamus and pituitary. We focused on confirming the relationship of NTS with estrogens and the gonadal axis, using a particularly important environmental estrogenic molecule, bisphenol-A (BPA). Based on the experimental models or in vitro cell studies, it has been shown that BPA can negatively affect reproductive function. We studied for the first time the action of an exogenous estrogenic substance on the expression of NTS and estrogen receptors in the pituitary-gonadal axis during prolonged in vivo exposure. The exposure to BPA at 0.5 and 2 mg/kg body weight per day during gestation and lactation was monitored through indirect immunohistochemical procedures applied to the pituitary and ovary sections. Our results demonstrate that BPA induces alterations in the reproductive axis of the offspring, mainly after the first postnatal week. The rat pups exposed to BPA exhibited accelerated sexual maturation to puberty. There was no effect on the number of rats born per litter, although the fewer primordial follicles suggest a shorter fertile life.

Abstract
The present outbreak of Human Monkeypox (HMPX) that has begun in May 2022 and has spread across all continents in less than two months has qualitative and quantitative characteristics that make it different from the pattern of human disease previously caused by this virus. It has spread with enormous ease, affects almost exclusively adults, behaves as a sexually transmitted disease and focuses on very specific groups and transmission conditions. The high incidence in the city of Madrid in males that have sex with males (MSM) has allowed us to observe and report the experience with the first 30 cases diagnosed in our institution. Patients presented with febrile symptoms, genital and paragenital skin lesions reminiscent of smallpox, but less extensive and severe. The disease may also cause proctitis, pharyngitis and perioral lesions. The PCR test for diagnostic confirmation has been shown to be very sensitive and effective, not only in skin lesions but also in blood and other fluids such as pharyngeal, rectal exudates and blood. A very high proportion of patients with HMPX also have other sexually transmitted diseases that must be actively detected in this context. The spontaneous evolution of our patients has been good and hospitalization has been practically unnecessary. Transmission to non-sexual cohabitants and health personnel has been nonexistent and the lesions have disappeared in less than 30 days without leaving sequelae and no need for specific antiviral treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Survival is a key metric of the effectiveness of a health system in managing cancer. We set out to provide a comprehensive examination of worldwide variation and trends in survival from brain tumors in adults, by histology. METHODS We analyzed individual data for adults (15-99 years) diagnosed with a brain tumor (ICD-O-3 topography code C71) during 2000-2014, regardless of tumor behavior. Data underwent a 3-phase quality control as part of CONCORD-3. We estimated net survival for 11 histology groups, using the unbiased nonparametric Pohar Perme estimator. RESULTS The study included 556,237 adults. In 2010-2014, the global range in age-standardized 5-year net survival for the most common sub-types was broad: in the range 20%-38% for diffuse and anaplastic astrocytoma, from 4% to 17% for glioblastoma, and between 32% and 69% for oligodendroglioma. For patients with glioblastoma, the largest gains in survival occurred between 2000-2004 and 2005-2009. These improvements were more noticeable among adults diagnosed aged 40-70 years than among younger adults. CONCLUSIONS To the best of our knowledge, this study provides the largest account to date of global trends in population-based survival for brain tumors by histology in adults. We have highlighted remarkable gains in 5-year survival from glioblastoma since 2005, providing large-scale empirical evidence on the uptake of chemoradiation at population level. Worldwide, survival improvements have been extensive, but some countries still lag behind. Our findings may help clinicians involved in national and international tumor pathway boards to promote initiatives aimed at more extensive implementation of clinical guidelines.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Belantamab mafodotin (BM) is a new anti-BCMA antibody-drug conjugate, recently approved for triple-class relapsed and refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM). We assessed real-world outcomes with BM in patients under the Spanish Expanded Access Program (EAP). METHODS We conducted an observational, retrospective, multicenter study including RRMM patients who received ≥ 1 dose of BM (Nov 2019 to Jun 2021). The primary endpoint was overall response rate (ORR). Secondary endpoints were progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), and incidence of treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs). RESULTS Thirty-three patients were included with a median of 70 years of age (range, 46-79 years). Median time from diagnosis was 71 months (range, 10-858 months). Median prior lines was 5 (range, 3-8 lines); 90% of patients were triple-/quad-/penta-refractory; 48% showed high-risk cytogenetics. Median BM doses was 3 (range 1-16 doses), with a median follow-up of 11 months (6-15 months). ORR was 42.2% (≥ VGPR, 18.2%). Median PFS was 3 months (95% CI 0.92-5.08) in the overall population, and 11 months (HR 0.26; 95% CI 0.10-0.68) for patients who achieved ≥ PR. PFS was not significantly different according to age, cytogenetic risk, and prior therapy lines. OS was 424 days (95% CI 107-740). Non-hematological TEAEs (57.6% of patients; 30.3% ≥ G3) included keratopathy (51.5%; 21.2% ≥ G3) and patient-reported vision-related symptoms (45.5%). Keratopathy was resolved in 70.6% of patients. G3 hematological TEAEs was 18.2%, thrombocytopenia (21.2%). Dose reductions due to TEAEs: 30.3%; delays: 36.4%. Treatment discontinuation causes: progression (54.5%), toxicity (non-ocular; 6%/ocular; 6% /ocular + non-ocular toxicity; 3%), death (6%), and patient's decision (3%). CONCLUSIONS BM showed relevant anti-myeloma activity in RRMM with a manageable safety profile. These results corroborate those observed in the BM pivotal trial.

Abstract
Sensitive and specific genotyping of human papillomaviruses (HPVs) is critical for the surveillance and monitoring of the vaccine effectiveness. Here, HPV genotypes were identified in 137 cervical samples with different histology (79 ≤CIN1 and 58 CIN3+) using Nested-PCR followed by Next-Generation sequencing (NGS) and relative proportions for each genotype in multiple infections were computed. All samples had been previously genotyped by PCR-Reverse Blotting Hybridization (PCR-RBH) thus allowing for a concordance analysis between both techniques. Multiple infections were present in 85% of ≤CIN1 cases compared to only 41% in CIN3+ cases (p<0.001). Among ≤CIN1 cases a towering genotypic diversity was observed, considering both low (LR-) and high risk (HR-) HPV genotypes; while among CIN3+, diversity was lower, HR-HPVs prevailing in most cases, especially HPV16. Furthermore, the predominance of HR-HPV genotypes in the proportions identified in each sample was higher in CIN3+ cases [(HPV16 (62.5%), followed by HPV31 and HPV58 (8.3% each)], than in ≤CIN1 cases [(HPV16 (17.7%), followed by HPV52 (14.7%) and HPV31 (10.3%)]. Agreement between PCR-RBH and NGS was higher than 90% for all genotypes (with an overall Kappa of 0.7), even though NGS identified eighty-nine positive results for HPV genotypes that had not been detected by PCR-RBH, evidencing its greater sensitivity. These results suggest that a reduction in genotypic diversity and/or an increase in the relative proportion of HR-HPVs in multiple infections can be considered as a biomarker for the potential risk of malignant progression.

Abstract
An adhesive based on a Fe3O4-nanoparticle (MNP)-doped epoxy resin was proposed for the development of detachable adhesive joints with GFRP substrates. The analysis of cryofractures showed that the increasing MNP content promotes a higher presence of larger aggregates and a lower sedimentation of nanoparticles due to the higher viscosity of the mixture. In this regard, the inclusion of expandable microspheres (MS) induces a more uniform dispersion of MNPs, reducing their sedimentation. The capability of the proposed adhesives for electromagnetic (EM) heating was also evaluated, with increases in temperature of around 100 °C at 750 A, enough to reach the Tg of the polymer required to facilitate the adhesive detachment, which is around 80 °C. Finally, the lap shear strength (LSS) of 14 and 20 wt.% MNP samples was evaluated in a single-lap shear joint with simultaneous EM heating. The LSS values were reduced by 60-80% at 750 A, thus promoting successful adhesive joint detachment under EM heating.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) affects almost 10% of patients with congenital heart disease, markedly worsening their prognosis. Bilateral lung or cardiopulmonary transplantation is therefore the last therapeutic option. The presence of underlying congenital heart disease (CHD) leads many of these patients directly to cardiopulmonary transplantation. However, this option is increasingly limited due to the shortage of organs and the high risk of the procedure.
Purpose
Demonstrate that isolated bilateral lung transplantation (BLT) associated with repair of simple heart defects is an option that leads to good prognostic outcomes and adequate positive cardiac chamber remodelling.
Methods
We retrospectively analysed the cases of PAH-CHD in our centre who underwent BLT from September 2010 to January 2022.
Results
During the recorded time 12 of the 135 PAH-CHD patients followed in our unit were considered for transplantation. Six BLT were finally performed. The reasons for rejecting the option of transplantation in patients with congenital heart disease included, in addition to the usual ones (age, histocompatibility, comorbidities, ...) the presence of abundant collateral circulation or repeated thoracic interventions. Of the 6 patients who underwent transplantation of both lungs, the mean age was 39±10 years and 4 were women (66.6%). All of them had previous symptoms of heart failure, 4 of them presented recurrent supraventricular arrhythmias requiring ablation, one of them required stent implantation in the left coronary trunk due to extrinsic compression by the pulmonary artery trunk and another had presented threatening haemoptysis requiring embolization of bronchial branches. Regarding the aetiology of PAH-CHD, two of the patients had residual PAH after previous closure of the intracardiac defect years earlier and the remaining four patients (66.6%) had an incidental intracardiac shunt (2 ASD and 2 VSD). Both incidental ASD were closed in the main intervention. The course of the operation and immediate post-transplantation was similar to other PAH transplants, with a mean ICU stay of 10 days. All patients were discharged home and remain alive to date without recurrence of cardiovascular symptoms. On post-transplant echocardiographic re-evaluation, all patients had normalized right chambers in terms of both size and function (Table 1).
Conclusion
Isolated bilateral lung transplantation is a real option for most cases of pulmonary arterial hypertension associated with congenital heart disease with simple or previously repaired defects. BLT in these patients is not accompanied by a higher rate of complications in the immediate postoperative period and in the long term means the resolution of cardiovascular symptoms with the adequate positive remodelling of the right chambers.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Most patients with heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) do not achieve current LDL-C goals proposed by European guidelines with conventional lipid-lowering therapy (LLT). Chronic use of PCSK9 inhibitors (PCSK9i) have shown to reduce LDL-C levels up to 61% on top of statins. Persistence to chronic LLT is important to reduce the burden of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD).
Purpose
To analyze persistence and effectiveness of PCSK9i in clinical practice setting in FH patients from the SAFEHEART register with long-term follow-up.
Methods
SAFEHEART is an open, long-term prospective study of a cohort of subjects with molecular diagnosis of FH. Follow-up is carried out every year through a standardized phone-call to collect clinical conditions, persistence to medications, lipid profile, and cardiovascular events. This study analyses subjects ≥18 years of age on stable LLT who have received PCSK9i.
Results
696 individuals (46% females), median age 56.4 years (IQR 49–66) started with PCSK9i (49% alirocumab and 51% evolocumab). Out of them 38% had history of ASCVD, and 89% were on maximum LLT. Median LDL-C at the moment of starting PCSK9i was 145 mg/dL (IQR, 123–177), representing a poor 2016 & 2019 ESC/EAS guidelines achievement (3% and 0.1% respectively). After a median follow-up of 3.7 years (IQR, 2.3–4.8), 669 patients (96%) remained on PCSK9i treatment during entire follow-up. Only 27 patients (4%) discontinued, 5 temporarily (0.7%) and 22 permanently (3.2%). Most common reasons for PCSK9i treatment interruption were medical decision (n=6), adverse event (AE) (n=5), patient decision not related with AE (n=5) and comorbidity (n=5). Median time to permanent discontinuation was 15 months (IQR, 4–33).
Median LDL-C levels observed and % of LDL-C reduction obtained after 1 year of treatment and in the last follow-up visit were: 63 mg/dL (IQR, 43–88), 61 mg/dL (IQR, 44–82), 57.6% (IQR, 39.5–69) and 58% (IQR, 44–68), respectively. 2016 ESC/EAS guidelines LDL-C goals was achieved by 70% of patients at year 1 and 77% in the last follow-up visit after the introduction of PCSK9i (p<0.001). 2019 ESC/EAS goals were achieved by 44.5% and 48% (p=0.1).
Conclusion
Long-term persistence to PCSK9i treatment in FH patients is very high (96%) and reasons for discontinuation are diverse. This study shows that COVID-19 pandemic did not affected persistence to treatment. Effectiveness in LDL-C reduction and LDL-C goal achievement improved significantly with introduction of PCSK9i in clinical practice setting.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES The last few years have been crucial in defining the most appropriate way to quantitatively assess [18F]FDG PET images in Multiple Myeloma (MM) patients to detect persistent tumor burden. The visual evaluation of images complements the assessment of Measurable Residual Disease (MRD) in bone marrow samples by multiparameter flow cytometry (MFC) or next-generation sequencing (NGS). The aim of this study was to quantify MRD by analyzing quantitative and texture [18F]FDG PET features. METHODS Whole body [18F]FDG PET of 39 patients with newly diagnosed MM were included in the database, and visually evaluated by experts in nuclear medicine. A segmentation methodology of the skeleton from CT images and an additional manual segmentation tool were proposed, implemented in a software solution including a graphical user interface. Both the compact bone and the spinal canal were removed from the segmentation to obtain only the bone marrow mask. SUV metrics, GLCM, GLRLM, and NGTDM parameters were extracted from the PET images and evaluated by Mann-Whitney U-tests and Spearman ρ rank correlation as valuable features differentiating PET+/PET- and MFC+/MFC- groups. Seven machine learning algorithms were applied for evaluating the classification performance of the extracted features. RESULTS Quantitative analysis for PET+/PET- differentiating demonstrated to be significant for most of the variables assessed with Mann-Whitney U-test such as Variance, Energy, and Entropy (p-value = 0.001). Moreover, the quantitative analysis with a balanced database evaluated by Mann-Whitney U-test revealed in even better results with 19 features with p-values < 0.001. On the other hand, radiomics analysis for MFC+/MFC- differentiating demonstrated the necessity of combining MFC evaluation with [18F]FDG PET assessment in the MRD diagnosis. Machine learning algorithms using the image features for the PET+/PET- classification demonstrated high performance metrics but decreasing for the MFC+/MFC- classification. CONCLUSIONS A proof-of-concept for the extraction and evaluation of bone marrow radiomics features of [18F]FDG PET images was proposed and implemented. The validation showed the possible use of these features for the image-based assessment of MRD.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess the impact of COVID-19 at nine nursing homes in Madrid, Spain, during the first wave of COVID-19 infection and lockdown period when preventive measures were taken to avoid transmission among residents. METHODS Nine hundred forty-two residents and 846 staff members from nine nursing homes participated in the study (April 18 to June 20, 2020). All participants were tested for SARS-CoV-2 in the nasopharynx by PCR and for IgG antibodies detection. Microbiological status at sampling was defined as active infection (positive PCR ± presence of antibodies), past infection (negative PCR + presence of antibodies), or naïve participants (negative PCR + absence of antibodies). RESULTS Laboratory results helped classify the residents as having active infection (n=224; 23.8%), past infection (n=462; 49.1%), or being naïve (n=256; 27.1%); staff members were actively infected (n=127; 15.1%), had had a past infection (n=290; 34.2%), or were naïve (n=429; 50.7%). Overall, the percentage of participants with COVID-19 was significantly higher in residents than in staff members (72.8% vs 49.2%; P=0.001). The clinical situation of residents vs staff at sampling was as follows: acute manifestations compatible with COVID-19 (7.3% vs 3.9%; P<0.01) and no manifestations of infection (92.7% vs 96.0%; P<0.01). A large proportion of both asymptomatic and symptomatic residents (69.4% vs 86.6%; P=0.015) had positive PCR results (mostly alongside positive IgG determinations). CONCLUSIONS COVID-19 affects 75% of the residents in nursing homes in Madrid. The high impact in these settings, despite the strict restrictions adopted during the lockdown, demonstrates the ability of SARS-CoV-2 to cause outbreaks.

Abstract
Background: Uruguay has the highest cancer incidence and mortality rates in Latin America. The National Cancer Registry of Uruguay, which has been in operation since 1992, provides epidemiological information on incidence and mortality at the country level.
Objective: The objective of this article is to update the incidence and mortality figures by reporting the information for the period 2013-2017.
Methods: All incident cases of invasive neoplasias except non-melanoma of the skin and all cancer deaths that occurred from 2013 to 2017 were analyzed. Age-standardized rates were calculated by the direct method, using the world standard population. Complementary, incidence (2002-2017) and mortality (1990-2017) trends were studied for the leading sites.
Results: Among females, the most common cancers are breast, colon and rectum, lung, cervix and thyroid. The most frequent cancers in males are prostate, lung, colon and rectum, bladder and kidney. Lung, prostate and colorectal cancer are the leading causes of cancer death in males while breast cancer is the first cause of cancer death among females.
Conclusions: Although cancer mortality has declined monotonously since 1990, cancer control is a challenge for Uruguay, wherein breast, lung and prostate cancer have very high incidence while the country must still make an effort to reduce other cancers that are very common in economically less favored countries.

Abstract
The development of new resources for a more accurate diagnosis and response assessment in multiple myeloma has been a long process for decades, mainly since the middle of the 20th century. During this time, the succession of technical advances has run parallel to the better knowledge of disease biology and the availability of novel therapeutic strategies. The cornerstone of standardized criteria to uniformly evaluate the disease response in myeloma dates back to the 1990s when the key role of complete remission was established. Since then, different updates have been implemented according to available scientific evidences not always without certain controversies. The progressive improvements in survival results of myeloma patients and the growing quality of responses due to the novel therapies have led to the need of developing new tools for better monitoring of tumor burden. In this way, the concept of minimal residual disease and its key value based on the prognostic significance and the clinical relevance has been consolidated during the last years, overcoming the value of conventional response criteria or classical adverse prognosis markers. Nevertheless, its precise role in the clinical management of myeloma patients to detect early treatment failure and trigger early rescue strategies is still pending to be defined. In this review, we revisit the major milestones in the understanding of tumor reduction in multiple myeloma until the most recent imaging techniques or liquid biopsy approaches, including a critical view of conventional response criteria, whose backbone has remained unchanged during the last 20 years.

Abstract
Multiple myeloma (MM) remains an incurable plasma cell malignancy. While its origin is enigmatic, an association with infectious pathogens including hepatitis C virus (HCV) has been suggested. Here we report nine patients with monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS) or MM with previous HCV infection, six of whom received antiviral treatment. We studied the evolution of the gammopathy disease, according to anti-HCV treatment and antigen specificity of purified monoclonal immunoglobulin, determined using the INNO-LIA™ HCV Score assay, dot-blot assays, and a multiplex infectious antigen microarray. The monoclonal immunoglobulin from 6/9 patients reacted against HCV. Four of these patients received antiviral treatment and had a better evolution than untreated patients. Following antiviral treatment, one patient with MM in third relapse achieved complete remission with minimal residual disease negativity. For two patients who did not receive antiviral treatment, disease progressed. For the two patients whose monoclonal immunoglobulin did not react against HCV, antiviral treatment was not effective for MGUS or MM disease. Our results suggest a causal relationship between HCV infection and MGUS and MM progression. When HCV was eliminated, chronic antigen-stimulation disappeared, allowing control of clonal plasma cells. This opens new possibilities of treatment for MGUS and myeloma.

Abstract
The increase in the number of therapeutic alternatives for both newly diagnosed and relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM) patients has widened the clinical scenario, leading to a level of complexity that no algorithm has been able to cover up to date. At present, this complexity increases due to the wide variety of clinical situations found in MM patients before they reach the status of relapsed/refractory disease. These different backgrounds may include primary refractoriness, early relapse after completion of first-line therapy with latest-generation agents, or very late relapse after chemotherapy or autologous transplantation. It is also important to bear in mind that many patient profiles are not fully represented in the main randomized clinical trials (RCT), and this further complicates treatment decision-making. In RRMM patients, the choice of previously unused drugs and the number and duration of previous therapeutic regimens until progression has a greater impact on treatment efficacy than the adverse biological characteristics of MM itself. In addition to proteasome inhibitors, immunomodulatory drugs, anti-CD38 antibodies and corticosteroids, a new generation of drugs such as XPO inhibitors, BCL-2 inhibitors, new alkylators and, above all, immunotherapy based on conjugated anti-BCMA antibodies and CAR-T cells, have been developed to fight RRMM. This comprehensive review addresses the fundamentals and controversies regarding RRMM, and discusses the main aspects of management and treatment. The basis for the clinical management of RRMM (complexity of clinical scenarios, key factors to consider before choosing an appropriate treatment, or when to treat), the arsenal of new drugs with no cross resistance with previously administered standard first line regimens (main phase 3 clinical trials), the future outlook including the usefulness of abandoned resources, together with the controversies surrounding the clinical management of RRMM patients will be reviewed in detail.

Abstract
The COVID-19 pandemic has represented a major cause of morbidity/mortality worldwide, overstressing health systems. Multiple myeloma (MM) patients show an increased risk for infections and they are expected to be particularly vulnerable to SARS-CoV-2 infection. Here we have obtained a comprehensive picture of the impact of COVID-19 in MM patients on a local and a global scale using a federated data research network (TriNetX) that provided access to Electronic Medical Records (EMR) from Health Care Organizations (HCO) all over the world. Through propensity score matched analyses we found that the number of new diagnoses of MM was reduced in 2020 compared to 2019 (RR 0.86, 95%CI 0.76-0.96) and the survival of newly diagnosed MM cases decreased similarly (HR 0.61, 0.38-0.81). MM patients showed higher risk of SARS-CoV-2 infection (RR 2.09, 1.58-2.76) and a higher excess mortality in 2020 (difference in excess mortality 9%, 4.4-13.2) than non-MM patients. By interrogating large EMR datasets from HCO in Europe and globally, we confirmed that MM patients have been more severely impacted by COVID-19 pandemic than non-MM patients. This study highlights the necessity of extending preventive measures worlwide to protect vulnerable patients from SARS-CoV-2 infection by promoting social distancing and an intensive vaccination strategies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hand osteoarthritis (HOA) is one of the most common causes of pain and functional disability in western countries and there is still no definitive cure. Low-dose radiation therapy (LDRT) has anti-inflammatory properties that have shown to be effective in the symptomatic relief of various degenerative musculoskeletal disorders. We designed a clinical protocol using LDRT for symptomatic HOA and present results and tolerance in the first 100 patients included. MATERIALS AND METHODS Between April 2015 and March 2021, 100 patients with a median age of 60 were treated. Fifty-seven patients suffering from proximal/distal interphalangeal joint pain, 40 patients with thumb arthritis, 2 patients with radiocarpal joint affection and 1 patient with metacarpophalangeal joint pain were enrolled. LDRT comprised of 6 fractions of 0.5-1 Gy on every other day up to a total dose of 3-6 Gy. Clinical response was evaluated according to the visual analog scale (VAS) for pain level and the von Pannewitz score (VPS) for joint functionality. Any patients not achieving subjective adequate pain relief after 8 weeks of treatment were offered a second identical LDRT course. RESULTS With a median follow-up of 10.5 months (range 7.55-12.45), 94% reported an improvement in the pain, with a significant reduction in the VAS level after 3, 6 and 12 months (p < 0.001). Sixty-three patients needed a second course of treatment at a median time interval of 12 weeks (range 9-14). The mean VAS score before treatment was 8 (range 3-10). After treatment, it was 5 (range 1-10). After 3, 6 and 12 months, the mean VAS scores were 4 (range 0-9), 3 (range 0-9) and 3.5 (range 0-9), respectively. Seventy patients reported functionality improvements after LDRT according to the von Pannewitz score. No acute or late complications were observed. CONCLUSION LDRT appears to be safe and useful for HOA and is associated with good rates of pain relief and functionality improvements. However, further studies are necessary to confirm these promising results.

Abstract
The pathological increase of clonal IgM in Waldenström macroglobulinemia can be associated with acquired von Willebrand syndrome and can be a major risk of bleeding symptoms in this subgroup of patients with Waldenström macroglobulinemia. The Bruton tyrosine kinase inhibitor ibrutinib is one of the approved treatments for symptomatic Waldenström macroglobulinemia. However, some controversy exists regarding the use of ibrutinib in these patients with high risk of bleeding because of its antiaggregant effect that could increase the risk of bleeding. Here, we present the case of a patient with Waldenström macroglobulinemia with associated acquired von Willebrand syndrome and progressively significant bleeding symptoms, who experienced a rapid increase in von Willebrand factor with ibrutinib treatment, despite only reaching a partial response in IgM levels similar to those reached with other previous treatments. We suggest that the control over the monoclonal protein is not the only mechanism that explains the good response, improvement in the bleeding symptoms and von Willebrand factor levels. This fact could be explained by the reduced glycoprotein Ib receptor expression induced by ibrutinib and the consequent von Willebrand factor increase in peripheral blood.

Abstract
The assessment of measurable residual disease (MRD) in bone marrow has proven of prognostic relevance in patients with multiple myeloma (MM). Nevertheless, and unlike other hematologic malignancies, the use of MRD results to make clinical decisions in MM has been underexplored to date. In this retrospective study, we present the results from a multinational and multicenter series of 400 patients with MRD monitoring during front-line therapy with the aim of exploring how clinical decisions made based on those MRD results affected outcomes. As expected, achievement of MRD negativity at any point was associated with improved PFS versus persistent MRD positivity (median PFS 104 vs. 45 months, p < 0.0001). In addition, however, 67 out of 400 patients underwent a clinical decision (treatment discontinuation, intensification or initiation of a new therapy) based on MRD results. Those patients in whom a treatment change was made showed a prolonged PFS in comparison with those 333 patients in which MRD results were not acted upon (respectively, mPFS 104 vs. 62 months, p = 0.005). In patients who achieved MRD negativity during maintenance (n = 186) on at least one occasion, stopping therapy in 24 patients vs. continuing in 162 did not alter PFS (mPFS 120 months vs. 82 months, p = 0.1). Most importantly, however, in patients with a positive MRD during maintenance (n = 214), a clinical decision (either intensification or change of therapy) (n = 43) resulted in better PFS compared to patients in whom no adjustment was made (n = 171) (mPFS NA vs. 39 months, p = 0.02). Interestingly, there were no significant differences when MRD was assessed by flow cytometry or by next-generation sequencing. Herein, we find that MRD is useful in guiding clinical decisions during initial therapy and has a positive impact on PFS in MM patients. This potentially opens a new dimension for the use of MRD in MM, but this role still remains to be confirmed in prospective, randomized clinical trials.

Abstract
Uruguay has the highest colorectal cancer incidence rates in Latin America. Previous studies reported a stable incidence and a slight increase in mortality among males. We aimed to assess colorectal cancer incidence (2002-2017) and mortality trends (1990-2017) by age groups and sex, using data from the National Cancer Registry. Annual percent changes (APCs) were estimated using joinpoint regression models. We included 27,561 colorectal cancer cases and 25,403 deaths. We found an increasing incidence among both males and females aged 40-49, with annual increases of 3.1% (95%CI: 1.21-5.03) and 2.1% (95%CI: 0.49-3.66), respectively, and an increasein the rate in older males (70+) of 0.60% (95%CI: 0.02-1.20) per year between 2002 and 2017. Mortality remained stable among those younger than 50, whereas it decreased for older females aged 50-69 and 70+ (APC: -0.61% (-1.07-0.14) and -0.68% (-1.02-0.34), respectively), and increased for the oldest males (70+; APC: 0.74 (0.47-1.01)). In conclusion, we found rising colorectal cancer incidence accompanied by stable mortality in young adults. Sex disparities were also found among the older adults, with a more favorable pattern for females. Exposures to dietary and lifestyle risk factors, and inequalities in access to and awareness of screening programs, are probably among the main underlying causes and deserve further investigation.

Abstract
PURPOSE Trastuzumab has shown an overall survival (OS) benefit in patients with human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)–positive breast cancer (BC), in both the adjuvant and the metastatic setting. We assessed the effectiveness of trastuzumab in patients treated in daily practice according to national treatment coverage protocols and compared our results with those reported by randomized clinical trials. These coverage protocols included patient selection criteria similar to those of those clinical trials and were developed by the Uruguayan National Resource Fund (FNR), the agency that has funded these prescriptions for more than a decade. PATIENTS AND METHODS We included all patients with HER2-positive BC treated with trastuzumab under FNR coverage approved between January 1, 2006, and December 31, 2016. The source of data was the FNR database, and primary outcome was OS, analyzed through Cox proportional hazards regression analysis. RESULTS A total of 1,944 women were included: 1,085 women (55.8%) were postmenopausal and 1,240 (63.7%) had HER2 and hormone receptor–positive BC. Trastuzumab was administered as adjuvant therapy to 1,233 patients (63.5%), of whom 154 also received it as a neoadjuvant treatment. Three hundred nineteen patients (16.4%) received trastuzumab for advanced disease. Five-year OS in the adjuvant setting was 86.4% (95% CI, 84.0% to 88.7%). The median survival of patients with advanced BC was 25.1 months (95% CI, 10.1 to 42.5 months). CONCLUSION Our survival results are not inferior to those reported in clinical trials, in both adjuvant and advanced settings. Importantly, these results support the relevance and the feasibility of treating patients in routine practice, following coverage protocols based on patient selection criteria and methods supported by positive clinical trials. In addition, these results favor quality and appropriate access to BC treatment in our country.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a neurological chronic disease that causes a number of physical, cognitive and emotional symptoms. The identification of these factors will allow mitigating unemployment and improve quality of life of patients. The Buffalo Vocational Monitoring Survey (BVMS) is a tool to characterize Work-Challenged patients. OBJECTIVE To describe and analyze BVMS data in people with multiple sclerosis (PwMS) from Argentina. To study the association with physical, cognitive and psychiatric morbidity in employed patients, comparing the performance of MS Work-Challenged and MS Work-Stable patients, with and without accommodations. METHODS 119 MS patients were administered the Argentina adaptation of the BVMS, and completed measures of physical disability, fatigue, depression, cognitive processing speed, memory and verbal fluency. RESULTS 65.54% of the patients were employed and 19.32% were unemployed, the remaining having roles of housewife, students and disability retirees. Within the employed subgroup, 60.26% were working as employees and 39.74% were self-employed. Cognitive and clinical variables differentiate patients with and without negative events and accommodations (p > 0.05). CONCLUSIONS This Spanish version BVMS is considered a new tool to monitor employment difficulties in Spanish-speaking MS patients. MS Work-Challenged had a higher depression, fatigue and worse performance in cognitive variables.

Abstract
PURPOSE To explore the feasibility of image-guided and respiratory-gated Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy (SBRT) for Accelerated Partial Breast Irradiation (APBI) in patients with very early breast cancer. MATERIAL AND METHODS Selected patients with early breast carcinoma after breast-conserving surgery were enrolled in this phase II trial. A fiducial marker was percutaneously placed close to surgical bed and five external fiducials were set on the skin. A CT scan for planning was acquired at free breathing. The treatment was planned and DVH were assessed according to international recommendations. Prescription dose was 30 Gy in five consecutive fractions of 6 Gy. A 6MV monoenergetic LINAC (linear accelerator) that combines stereoscopic X-ray imaging system and ExacTrac Adaptive Gating technique was used. PTV (planning target volume) intrafraction motion was controlled and PTV was irradiated in a selected gated area of the respiratory cycle. Shifts for a correct, gated set-up were calculated and automatically applied. RESULTS Between April 2013 and October 2015, a total of 23 patients were included. The median tumor size was 12 mm. The mean PTV volume was 114 cc. The mean ipsilateral lung V9 Gy was 2.2% and for left-sided breast cancers, the volume of the heart receiving 1.5 Gy was 11.5%. Maximum skin dose was 30.8 Gy. Acute toxicity was grade1 in all the patients and 100% experienced excellent/good breast cosmesis outcomes. With a median follow-up of 66 months (range 8-99 months) local-relapse-free-survival reaches 100%. One patient developed a second breast cancer outside the treated quadrant after 25.1 months. CONCLUSION APBI with SBRT and ExacTrac Adaptive Gating System was feasible. The acute and late toxicities were almost null and cosmesis was excellent. We also found that the margins of 5 mm applied from CTV to PTV were sufficient to compensate for geometric uncertainties.

Abstract
Introduction In Uruguay, breast cancer has the highest incidence and mortality of all cancer in women. Knowledge of the distribution of risk factors related to disease development supports the implementation of prevention strategies in routine clinical practice. This study aimed to determine the epidemiological profile for breast cancer and the frequency of mammographic surveillance in the surveyed population. Materials and Methods A survey was conducted among Uruguayan women diagnosed with breast cancer who were assisted in the mastology unit of the oncology service of the Hospital de Clínicas in Montevideo, Uruguay, from September 1, 2018, to March 1, 2020. Results This study included 398 respondents, with a median (SD) age at diagnosis of 61 (34-86) years. A total of 310 respondents (78.0%) had 1 or more risk factors. Most women aged over 50 years (264 out of a total of 338 [78.1%]) underwent mammographic surveillance at least biennially. Conclusions Consistent with international reports, most respondents had a risk factor. Among the group of respondents aged over 50 years, most underwent mammographic and clinical surveillance at least biennially. Although it is only possible to formulate conclusions about the surveyed women because of the study design, the obtained data further our understanding of the epidemiological profile of the Uruguayan population, which can contribute to prevention practices.
