Ostomy Does Not Lead to Worse Outcomes After Bowel Resection With Ovarian Cancer: A Systematic Review | BackgroundDebulking cytoreduction surgery with bowel resection is a common intervention for ovarian cancer. It is controversial whether ostomy causes worse survival outcomes and how clinical physicians should choose which patients to undergo ostomy. During this study, we performed a systematic review to determine whether ostomy leads to worse outcomes after bowel resection compared to anastomosis. We also summarized the possible indications for ostomy. MethodsWe searched PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane for articles containing the phrase “ovarian cancer with bowel resection” that were published between 2016 and 2021. We included studies that compared primary anastomosis with ostomy. We mainly focused on differences in the anastomotic leakage rate, length of hospital stay, overall survival, and other survival outcomes associated with the two procedures.Results and ConclusionOf the 763 studies, three were ultimately included in the systematic review (N=1411). We found that ostomy did not contribute to worse survival outcomes, and that the stoma-related complications were acceptable. Indications for ostomy require further study. Bowel resection segment margins and the distance from the anastomosis to the anal verge require consideration. | [

The human milk oligosaccharide 2′-fucosyllactose attenuates the severity of experimental necrotising enterocolitis by enhancing mesenteric perfusion in the neonatal intestine | AbstractNecrotising enterocolitis (NEC) is a common disease in premature infants characterised by intestinal ischaemia and necrosis. The only effective preventative strategy against NEC is the administration of breast milk, although the protective mechanisms remain unknown. We hypothesise that an abundant human milk oligosaccharide (HMO) in breast milk, 2′-fucosyllactose (2′FL), protects against NEC by enhancing intestinal mucosal blood flow, and we sought to determine the mechanisms underlying this protection. Administration of HMO-2′FL protected against NEC in neonatal wild-type mice, resulted in a decrease in pro-inflammatory markers and preserved the small intestinal mucosal architecture. These protective effects occurred via restoration of intestinal perfusion through up-regulation of the vasodilatory molecule endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS), as administration of HMO-2′FL toeNOS-deficient mice or to mice that received eNOS inhibitors did not protect against NEC, and by 16S analysis HMO-2′FL affected the microbiota of the neonatal mouse gut, although these changes do not seem to be the primary mechanism of protection. Induction of eNOS by HMO-2′FL was also observed in cultured endothelial cells, providing a link between eNOS and HMO in the endothelium. These data demonstrate that HMO-2′FL protects against NEC in part through maintaining mesenteric perfusion via increased eNOS expression, and suggest that the 2′FL found in human milk may be mediating some of the protective benefits of breast milk in the clinical setting against NEC. | [

Estrogen’s attenuating effect on the exercise pressor reflex is more opioid dependent in gonadally intact than in ovariectomized female cats | Using gonadally intact female cats, we showed previously that estrogen, applied topically to the spinal cord, attenuated the exercise pressor reflex. Although the mechanism by which estrogen exerted its attenuating effect is unknown, this steroid hormone has been shown to influence spinal opioid pathways, which in turn have been implicated in the regulation of the exercise pressor reflex. These findings prompted us to test the hypothesis that opioids mediate the attenuating effect of estrogen on the exercise pressor reflex in both gonadally intact female and ovariectomized cats. We therefore applied 200 μl of 17β-estradiol (0.01 μg/ml) with and without the addition of 1,000 μg naloxone, a μ- and δ-opioid antagonist, to a spinal well covering the L6–S1 spinal cord in decerebrated female cats that were either gonadally intact or ovariectomized. The exercise pressor reflex was evoked by electrical stimulation of the L7 or S1 ventral root, a maneuver that caused the hindlimb muscles to contract statically. We found that, in gonadally intact cats, the attenuating effect of estrogen was more pronounced than that in ovariectomized cats. We also found that, in gonadally intact female cats, naloxone partly reversed the attenuation of the pressor response to static contraction caused by spinal estrogen application. For example, in intact cats, the pressor response to contraction before estrogen application averaged 39 ± 4 mmHg ( n = 10), whereas the pressor response 60 min afterward averaged only 18 ± 4 mmHg ( P | [

Litmus test or destination systemic therapy? Trends in referral for surgery after initial systemic therapy in metastatic kidney cancer. | 502 Background: With nine new targeted and immunotherapeutic agents for metastatic kidney cancer (mRCC) since 2005, there is no randomized data supporting sequencing cytoreductive nephrectomy (CN) and newer systemic therapies (ST). Increased disease control with ST engenders concern that CN may shorten life or delay therapy. Thus, in all the best prognostic candidates, initial ST as a “litmus” test may be advocated prior to CN. We evaluated use of CN after initial ST, hypothesizing receipt of deferred CN to be associated with increased survival time, markers of increased performance status, less rapid disease, and socioeconomic status. Methods: The National Cancer Database was screened for adult patients with biopsy-proven mRCC treated with initial systemic therapy between 2006-2013. Covariates included demographic, oncologic, hospital-level, and geographic variables. Unadjusted and multivariable logistic regression was performed, identifying factors associated with CN after initial ST. Results: Of 14,651 patients treated with initial ST for mRCC, 709 (4.8%, median OS 19 months, IQR 9-35) underwent delayed CN compared with 13,942 (95.2%, median OS 5 months, IQR 2-13) treated with ST alone. On multivariable analysis, survival ≥3 months was highly associated with receipt of CN (OR 10.6, 95% CI 5.5, 20.5). However, of 9,796 surviving ≥3 months, only 689 (7%) underwent CN. Factors associated with lower odds of CN included older age, greater comorbidity, higher clinical stage (T and N), and unfavorable metastatic sites (i.e., brain, bone, liver) with all p | [

Efficient hierarchical robust adaptive control of mode transition for parallel hybrid electric vehicles | A fast and smooth mode transition process for parallel hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs) can improve vehicle drivability. At the same time, system uncertainty resulting from friction, gearbox, parameter perturbation, production deviations, and external disturbance of the mode transition process makes control design challenges. In this regard, this paper introduces a novel efficient hierarchical robust adaptive mode transition control strategy to achieve an accurate and fast engagement of the clutch of a parallel HEV during mode transition in the case of uncertain system parameters and unmeasurable actual clutch torque in this paper. At the upper level of the controller, a robust adaptive sliding mode control (RASMC) is proposed to calculate the clutch transmitted required torque based on the current states of the electric motor (EM) and engine, and the control parameters are optimized via the particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm by compromising the vehicle jerk and the clutch slipping energy loss. Moreover, a fuzzy controller is designed to calculate the expected clutch engaging speed by employing the deviation of the desired and actual clutch torques, and the actual clutch torque is not a measured value but an estimate obtained by a proportional-integral (PI) observer. At the lower level, an adaptive finite-time control (AFTC) scheme is developed to overcome the gear backlash, parameter perturbation, and external disturbance during the clutch position tracking process. The effectiveness and advantage of the proposed control strategy are verified by both MATLAB/Simulink simulations and the hardware-in-loop (HIL) test. | Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part D: Journal of Automobile Engineering | [

Phylogenetic position of Mononchus species (Nematoda: Mononchida) associated with tomato using 28S rDNA from South Africa | Predatory nematodes are the main nematodes that live in the soil assisting with the biological control of the plant parasitic nematodes associated with various crops. Mononchus species is a predatory nematode and therefore can feed on the other nematodes that exist in the soil. This species is important due to its critical role in the biocontrol strategy and therefore must be identified correctly. The soil samples were collected from a tomato field in Limpopo Province in South Africa. This molecular study was conducted in 2022 at Limpopo University to identify the nematode species from South Africa's soils using 28S rDNA marker. The recovered nematode was extracted using the tray method, and then its DNA was extracted using the chelex method. The nematode was identified as Mononchus sp. Afterwards, 28S rDNA was amplified using specific primers to identify the nematode at the molecular level. The Nblast analysis based on the large subunit ribosomal DNA showed South African Mononchus sp. had 99 % similarity (KY750781) with a Mexican population. Phylogenetic analysis using maximum likelihood placed this species with those molecularly identified as Mononchus in the same clade with highly supported (100) bootstrap values. In conclusion, this is the first 28S rDNA of a Mononchus from South Africa. Additionally, though this species was identified using 28S rDNA however, the use of other rDNA markers such as ITS rDNA and 18S rDNA for a better understanding of Mononchus phylogeny is recommended. | Research on Crops | [

Abstract P296: Dietary Habits in Primary Care Patients with Recent Intentional Weight Loss | Introduction: Primary care physicians are uniquely positioned to provide counselling for weight loss, yet lifestyle habits of primary care patients with recent, intentional weight loss are unclear. Our objective was to characterize diet and exercise habits in primary care patients with recent, intentional weight loss, comparing those with greater (≥10%) to those with lesser (5 to Methods: This cross-sectional analysis of baseline data from a weight loss maintenance clinical trial in a primary care setting included patients,18-75 years old, with ≥5% intentional weight loss via lifestyle change in the past 2 years. Recent weight loss was confirmed with medical records. Dietary habits were measured by the Connor Diet Habits Survey. Results: Participants (n=192, 74% female, 87% white) had mean (SD) age 53 (12) years, body mass index 30.4 (5.9) kg/m 2 , and recent weight loss of 11 (8) %. Participants had a high burden of comorbidities: high blood pressure (50%), dyslipidemia (43%), diabetes (14%), and cardiovascular disease (10%). Participants reported high median intake of fruits and vegetables (5 servings/day), and low intake of fried foods (1 servings/wk), desserts (1 serving/wk) and sugar-sweetened beverages (0 serving/wk) (see Table) . Participants ate at restaurants on average twice/wk and most drank skim milk. Those with greater weight loss had higher intakes of fruits and vegetables (p=0.04) and low fat foods/recipes (p=0.02); other dietary habits were not related to amount of recent weight loss (see Table ). Conclusions: Despite the plethora of studies that support and refute a variety of dietary recommendations to promote weight loss, dietary habits in primary care patients with a high burden of comorbidities and recent, intentional weight loss were consistent with conventional wisdom including: more fruits and vegetables, limited added sugars, and more low fat foods and recipes. Future research should test the effects of this eating pattern in a primary care setting for weight loss and maintenance. | [

Pill-induced esophagitis caused by ingesting excessive caffeine tablets | Abstract A 19-year-old woman with suicidal thoughts consumed 24 anhydrous caffeine tablets and was admitted to our hospital. After being discharged from the hospital, her oral intake remained impaired because of retrosternal pain and she was readmitted. An upper gastrointestinal endoscopy revealed diffuse ulcers throughout the mid-to-lower esophagus; the patient was diagnosed with caffeine-induced esophagitis. She recovered soon after conservative treatment. A follow-up endoscopy performed 1 month after the patient was discharged showed that the ulcers had healed. This case highlights the risk of esophageal injuries after ingesting excessive caffeine tablets, which were sold as dietary supplement without a prescription. Our experience indicates that endoscopic surveillance is advisable to prevent severe complications if a patient presents with esophageal symptoms suggestive of chemical esophagitis. | [

The transition from novice to serial crowdfunders: behavioral antecedents and well-being drivers | PurposeSerial crowdfunders are vital to the advancement of crowdfunding, either by launching subsequent campaigns or by mentoring novice (first-time) crowdfunders. However, research on crowdfunders’ drivers has focused on either novice crowdfunders’ motivations or the factors contributing to serial crowdfunders’ success. The present study aims to complement existing knowledge on serial crowdfunders by exploring behavioral and well-being aspects that drive novice crowdfunders to become serial crowdfunders.Design/methodology/approachData on crowdfunders were retrieved through in-depth interviews with 42 novice and 17 serial crowdfunders on a list provided by the largest crowdfunding platform in Israel. Complementary data were collected from interviews with the chief executive officers (CEOs) of two leading rewards and donations platforms in Israel and from the contents of the pages of crowdfunding campaigns. A four-stage process of content analysis was applied.FindingsNovice and serial crowdfunders follow different logics. While novice crowdfunders’ motivations and behavior can mostly be explained by the theory of planned behavior (TPB) and follow a more rational process, serial crowdfunders’ motivations and behavior are guided by aspects of well-being.Originality/valueThe findings show that the more rational process described by the TPB and the dimensions of well-being interacts in a circular way to motivate serial operations by crowdfunders. Well-being is also manifested in the maintenance of social ties and the development of social capital, which are crucial for serial entrepreneurs. | [

Politics and Morality in State Abortion Policy | AbstractThe number and variety of state policies regulating abortion each year is increasing. Opponents of abortion adopted a strategy of “legal but inaccessible” that has resulted in the passage of more than 700 state laws since the early 1990s. Despite being a very active area of policy making, we lack a coherent explanation for the proliferation of abortion policy. Scholars studying different policies at discrete moments in time have come to conflicting conclusions about how well theories of morality policy and representation explain abortion policy. Using an original dataset comprised of a near-universe of pro- and anti-abortion rights policy from 1973 to 2013, I establish the ways in which partisan control of the government and the moral preferences of constituents shape state policy. I find that anti-abortion rights policies are well explained by both theories but that pro-abortion rights policies are not well explained as a morality policy or with descriptive representation. In addition, I show the heterogeneous effect of representation across anti-abortion rights policies; Democratic women and governors decrease the probability of only certain anti-abortion rights policies. | [

Abstract 1439: De novo expression of c-kit in prostate cancer cells interacting with the bone microenvironment | Abstract Specific cellular and molecular interactions between prostate cancer (PC) cells and the bone microenvironment lead to expansion of the metastatic deposit, disease progression, and ultimately significant morbidity and mortality. We recently reported an association between expression of the tyrosine kinase receptor c-kit and clinical PC progression, with the highest expression seen in clinical metastatic bone specimens. Moreover, we found that intraosseous tumors formed by otherwise c-kit negative PC3 cells injected into human bone xenografts in SCID mice (SCID-hu model) expressed c-kit. To determine the relevance of these findings, we examined additional human PC cell lines, namely LNCaP, C42b, and DU145, for the expression of c-kit in vitro and in vivo. While none of the cultured PC cells expressed c-kit at the message or protein level, immunostaining for c-kit in intraosseous tumors produced by these cells in the SCID-hu model revealed a distinctive and specific reactivity in the cancer cell compartment. The induction of c-kit expression in PC cells growing within the bone microenvironment was emulated by co-culture of PC3 cells and bone-derived cells embedded in Matrigel, as demonstrated by RT-PCR analysis. In an attempt to mimic the de novo c-kit expression observed in the SCID-hu model and to identify potential signaling pathways triggered by c-kit activation by its ligand stem cell factor (SCF), normally expressed by the bone microenvironment, we transiently transfected PC3 cells with wild-type c-kit. Activation of c-kit was confirmed by immunoblotting for phosphorylated c-kit. Using the whole human genome Agilent microarray, we found that 220 genes were differentially expressed when SCF-treated and non-treated c-kit-transfected PC3 cells were compared, resulting in discrete functional sub-networks that were coordinately up or down-regulated. Most notably, pathway and genetic network analysis revealed that c-kit activation resulted in an up-regulated fibroblast growth factor-2-mediated sub-network. Taken together, these results suggest that c-kit induction in PC cells in the bone microenvironment modulates cell-cell interaction pathways and growth factor signaling systems that ultimately lead to expansion of bone metastasis.

Romuald Węgłowski (1876-1935) – Orthopaedic Surgeon, Forgotten Pioneer of Limb Saving Tumour Surgery | On May 16, 1914, The Lancet Journal published a paper by Romuald Węgłowski, a Polish-born professor of Moscow University, entitled „Malignant tumours of bones: a new method in conservative operative treatment.” The idea of biological resection presented in the paper consisted in thermocoagulation of the apparently cancerous part of a bone with a jet of steam. According to the author, dead bone rid of live malignant cells reconstructed itself quickly, which helped to preserve the functionality of the organ without considerable limitations. The events of the First World War, political changes in tsarist Russia and the recovery of independence by Poland greatly complicated Węgłowski’s professional career. We thought it would be interesting to present the life story of the great Polish surgeon in the context of his own method of bone cancer treatment, which without doubt marked the beginning of Polish orthopaedic oncology aimed at limb-saving surgery. | [
