This article describes the development of a device to investigate the non-visual responses to light: The Light-Dosimeter (lido). Its multidisciplinary team followed a user-centred approach throughout the project, that is, their design decisions focused on researchers' and participants' needs. Together with custom-made mountings and the software Lido Studio, the lidos provide researchers with a holistic solution to record participants' light exposure in the near-corneal plane in laboratory settings and under real-world conditions. Validation measurements with commercial equipment were deemed satisfying, as was the combining with data from other devices. The handling of the lidos and mountings and the use of the software Lido Studio during the trial period by various researchers and participants were successful. Despite some limitations, the lidos can help advance research on the non-visual responses to light over the coming years. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

We report the observation of positronium excitation from the 2S to the 20P state. The Rydberg positronium atoms fly a distance of 40 mm before being field ionized and detected in a micro-channel plate. The time of flight can thus be measured and the velocity distribution of the atoms excited in the 2S state is reconstructed. This is used as an input to the model of the line-shape in order to properly take into account the second order Doppler shift which is the main systematic uncertainty in the 1S-2S measurements of positronium., 7 pages, 6 figures

We present the current status for the direct measurement of the positronium hyperfine structure using the $\text{2}^\text{3}\text{S}_\text{1} \rightarrow \text{2}^\text{1}\text{S}_\text{0}$ transition. This experiment, currently being commissioned at the slow positron beam facility at ETH Zurich, will be the first measurement of this transition and the first positronium hyperfine splitting experiment conducted in vacuum altogether. This experiment will be free of systematic effects found in earlier experiments, namely the inhomogeneity in static magnetic fields and the extrapolation from dense gases to vacuum. The achievable precision is expected to be on the order of $10\, \mathrm{ppm}$ while the systematic uncertainty is estimated to be within a few $\mathrm{ppm}$. This would allow to check recent bound state QED calculations and a $3$-$\sigma$ discrepancy with earlier experiments., Comment: v3 refs. added some typos corrected, 10 pages, 9 Figures, prepared for the proceedings of the PSA2018 conference, Vienna (Austria)

We report high-resolution cw laser spectra of the symmetric stretching fundamental in ammonia 14 NH 3 measured with a cavity ring-down setup for mid-IR transitions (around 3300 c m − 1 ). In a supersonic jet expansion ( 0.0001 ≤ x (N H 3) ≤ 0.04 seeded in Ar), we have obtained rotational temperatures below 7 K . For the gas expansion, a pulsed slit nozzle with 40 m m length and 70 µm width has been used. The measured relative line intensities demonstrate that the A and E nuclear spin symmetry isomers do not interconvert in the supersonic jet expansion under these conditions (nuclear spin symmetry conservation). The lateral velocity of the gas expansion has been probed by a Doppler profile measurement, showing a preference for an expansion with an angular distribution following Lambert's cosine law perpendicular to the slit direction and an approximate molecular velocity of about 470 m / s . The experimental setup is described in detail, also in view of high-resolution spectroscopy of chiral molecules as candidates to measure the parity violating energy difference between enantiomers with a barrier to interconversion around 2500 c m − 1 .

We are developing a beam line which compresses the phase space of a standard surface $\mu^+$ beam by 10 orders of magnitude with an efficiency of $10^{-3}$. Phase space compression occurs in a He gas target and consists of three consecutive stages: Transverse (perpendicular to the beam axis) compression, longitudinal compression and re-extraction into vacuum. Transverse compression was observed for the first time and longitudinal compression has been measured to occur within 2.5 $\mu$s with high efficiency., Comment: Presented at the Seventh Meeting on CPT and Lorentz Symmetry, Bloomington, Indiana, June 20-24, 2016

The expected increase of the instantaneous luminosity of a factor seven and of the total integrated luminosity by a factor 3-5 at the second phase of the upgraded high luminosity LHC compared to the design goals for LHC makes it necessary to re-evaluate the radiation hardness of the read-out electronics of the ATLAS Hadronic Endcap Calorimeter. The current cold electronics made of GaAs ASICs have been tested with neutron and proton beams to study their degradation under irradiation and the effect it would have on the ATLAS physics programme. New, more radiation hard technologies which could replace the current amplifiers have been studied as well: SiGe bipolar, Si CMOS FET and GaAs FET transistors have been irradiated with neutrons and protons with fluences up to ten times the total expected fluences for ten years of running of the high luminosity LHC. The performance measurements of the current read-out electronics and potential future technologies and expected performance degradations under high luminosity LHC conditions are presented.

Introduction: LRP1 is a potential prognostic marker in several cancer entities since its lowered expression is associated with worth overall survival (OS). Moreover, LRP1 expression was associated with p53 and p16 alteration, serpin-protease-complex-clearance, high-grade and aggressiveness in other tumour entities – all characteristics of HNSCC. Methods: After detection of LRP1 and a truncated splice variant (shLRP1) in the HNSCC-derived cell lines FaDu and HN5, RNA of 10 primary HNSCC with identical TNM status (pT4a pN2b cM0) at time of diagnosis, but despite identical treatment different clinical course regarding either A) a rather short progression-free (PFS) and overall survival (OS) of the patients (n=5) or B) so far event-free survival of the patients (n=5) were analyzed for presence of both LRP1 transcripts and HPV DNA status was assessed. Results: We found no difference in LRP1 expression in comparison of groups A and B but significant higher LRP1 expression in HPV DNA-positive HNSCC (n=5). The shLRP1 expression analysis, however, did neither differ in comparison of the two groups with different clinical outcome nor between HPV negative and positive HNSCC. Conclusion: LRP1 is differentially expressed in HPV negative and positive HNSCC. Considering its association with HNSCC characteristics and in particular HPV-related effects on p53 and p16, further experiments are now performed to corroborate LRP1 as a prognostic marker or therapeutic target in HNSCC.

- Abstract
Background: Human head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) fundamentally vary in their susceptibility to different cytotoxic drugs and treatment modalities. There is at present no clinically accepted test system to predict the most effective therapy for an individual patient.Methods: Therefore, we established tumour-derived slice cultures which can be kept in vitro for at least 6 days. Upon treatment with cisplatin, docetaxel and cetuximab, slices were fixed and paraffin sections were cut for histopathological analysis.Results: Apoptotic fragmentation, activation of caspase 3, and cell loss were observed in treated tumour slices. Counts of nuclei per field in untreated compared with treated slices deriving from the same tumour allowed estimation of the anti-neoplastic activity of individual drugs on an individual tumour.Conclusion: HNSCC-derived slice cultures survive well in vitro and may serve not only to improve personalised therapies but also to detect mechanisms of tumour resistance by harvesting surviving tumour cells after treatment.

Various studies have documented the associations between mold exposure and effects on health. Mycotoxins, which occur in spores and mold fragments, can be involved in processes that have pathological effects, such as adynamia of the immune system, recurrent infections of the respiratory tract, or asthma. Using Tetrahymena pyriformis, a single-cell organism well established as a suitable model for human respiratory epithelium-cell functionalities, we investigated dose-response relationships of the mycotoxins gliotoxin and penicillic acid. Our study focused on the viability (cell count, MIT assay), energy levels (adenosine-5′-triphosphate content), energy-providing processes (MIT reduction per cell), and cell respiration (oxygen consumption). Both mycotoxins acted as cytotoxins in a dose-dependent manner. Gliotoxin had a stronger inhibitory effect (EC
50 0.38 μM) than did penicillic acid (EC50 343.19 μM). The energy-providing processes were not inhibited or were only weakly inhibited under the influence of gliotoxin, whereas penicillic acid caused stimulation of the physiological parameters. Summarizing the results, it is clear that the two investigated mycotoxins must have different modes of action. They are not only different in the strength of their toxic effects but also in a variety of physiological aspects. In addition, T pyriformis showed differences in its ability to overcome the negative effects of particular mycotoxin exposures. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]- Published

We demonstrate efficient transverse compression of a 12.5 MeV/c muon beam stopped in a helium gas target featuring a vertical density gradient and crossed electric and magnetic fields. The muon stop distribution extending vertically over 14 mm was reduced to a 0.25 mm size (rms) within 3.5 μs. The simulation including cross sections for low-energy μ+-He elastic and charge exchange (μ+↔ muonium) collisions describes the measurements well. By combining the transverse compression stage with a previously demonstrated longitudinal compression stage, we can improve the phase space density of a μ+ beam by a factor of 1010 with 10-3 efficiency.

- Abstract
Background/Objectives: Laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC) is among most frequent malignancies of the head and neck. Recent oncologic research focusses on advanced rather than on early stages. Thus, we aimed to improve the knowledge concerning prognostic factors and survival in early glottic (GC) and supraglottic cancer (SGC). Methods: We retrospectively investigated patients diagnosed in 2007 to 2020 with stage I or II GC (ICD-10-C32.0) or SGC (ICD-10-C32.1, C32.8 or C32.9). For precise discrimination of GC and SGC, pathology reports about biopsy and definitive excision were closely examined and information on clinical characteristics and risk factors were collected before analyzing patterns of risk factors for overall survival (OS) in multivariate Cox regression analyses (mvCox). Results: The cohort included 220 patients with early GC ( n = 183) and SGC ( n = 37). The GC patients showed significantly improved 5-year OS compared to SGC patients (83.6% vs. 64.9%; p = 0.004), whereas survival according to UICC stage (I vs. II) was not different ( p = 0.177). Surgical resection was superior to definitive radiotherapy (RT) for 5-year OS ( p < 0.001). Cumulative tobacco consumption of greater than 10 pack years drastically impaired OS ( p = 0.024), especially in patients receiving RT ( p < 0.001). Supraglottic localization, smoking, and re-resection after initial R1 status consistently were independent prognostic factors in mvCox. Conclusions: Our cohort of early LSCC patients demonstrates significant negative impact of supraglottic localization, older age, tobacco consumption, poor tumor differentiation, and re-resection on OS. Further research is required as there is still lack of evidence on optimal decision-making and therapeutic strategies.

- Abstract
The European Larynx Organ Preservation Study (ELOS; NCT06137378) is a prospective, randomized, open-label, two-armed parallel group controlled, phase II multicenter larynx organ preservation (LOP) trial in locoregionally advanced (LA) stage III, IVA/B head and neck squamous cell carcinoma of the larynx or hypopharynx (LHSCC) amenable for total laryngectomy (TL) with PD-L1 expression within tumor tissue biopsy, calculated as CPS ≥ 1. Induction chemotherapy (IC) with docetaxel and cisplatin (TP) followed by radiation will be compared to TP plus PD-1 inhibition by pembrolizumab (MK-3475; 200 mg i.v. starting day 1 q3w for 17 cycles). After a short induction early response evaluation (ERE) 21 ± 3 days after the first cycle of IC (IC-1), responders achieving endoscopic estimated tumor surface shrinkage (ETSS) ≥30% will get an additional two cycles of IC followed by intensity-modulated radiotherapy 70-72 Gy (EQD2/α/β = 10) aiming at LOP. Nonresponders (ETSS < 30% or progressing disease) will receive TL and bilateral neck dissection followed by postoperative radiation or chemoradiation as recommended by the clinic's multidisciplinary tumor board. Pembrolizumab treatment will be continued in the intervention arm regardless of ETSS status after IC-1 in both responders and laryngectomized nonresponders, independent of subsequent decisions on adjuvant therapy after TL., Clinical Trial Registration: clinicaltrials.gov, identifier NCT06137378., Competing Interests: Some of the authors disclosed potential conflicts of interest.

- Abstract
In locally advanced (LA) laryngeal/hypopharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (LHSCC), larynx preservation (LP) strategies aim at the cure of the disease while preserving a functional larynx, thus avoiding total laryngectomy and the associated impact on the quality of life. In the last decades, apart from transoral and open-neck organ preservation approaches, several non-surgical regimens have been investigated: radiotherapy alone, alternate, concurrent or sequential chemoradiation, and bioradiotherapy. Despite major progress, the identification of reliable and effective predictors for treatment response remains a clinical challenge. This review examines the current state of LP in LA-LHSCC and the need for predictive factors, highlighting the importance of the PRESERVE trial in addressing this gap. The PRESERVE trial represents a pivotal initiative aimed at finding the optimal therapy for laryngeal preservation specific to each patient through a retrospective analysis of data from previous LP trials and prospectively validating findings. The goal of the PRESERVE trial is to develop a comprehensive predictive classifier that integrates clinical, molecular, and multi-omics data, thereby enhancing the precision and efficacy of patient selection for LP protocols., Competing Interests: PB: participation in an advisory board or conference honoraria for: Merck, Sanofi-Regeneron, Merck Sharp & Dohme, Glaxo Smith Kline, Merus, Pfizer, Sun Pharma, Angelini, Nestlè.

- Abstract
Introduction: Larynx organ preservation (LOP) in locoregional-advanced laryngeal and hypopharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (LA-LHSCC) being only R0-resectable (clear margins > 5 mm) by total laryngectomy (TL) is desirable. Based on tumor-specific survival (TSS) and overall survival (OS) data from the RTOG 91-11 trial and meta-analyses of randomized clinical trials (RCTs), cisplatin-based concurrent radiochemotherapy (CRT) is discussed being superior to cisplatin-based induction chemotherapy followed by radiotherapy (IC+RT) and TL followed by postoperative RT (TL+PORT) or radiochemotherapy (TL+PORCT). Outside of RCTs, T4 LHSCC treated with TL+PORCT demonstrated improved OS and TSS compared to CRT alone; comparisons with docetaxel plus cisplatin (TP)-based IC+RT are unpublished. Head-to-head comparisons in RCTs of these four alternatives are missing., Materials and Methods: We utilized monocentric registry data to compare the outcome in the LOP trial DeLOS-II (NCT00508664) and propensity score (PS)-matched LHSCC patients. DeLOS-II utilized endoscopic tumor staging after one cycle of TP-based IC for selecting TL+R(C)T for non-responders versus IC+RT for responders. Main risk factors for survival (localization hypopharynx, T4, N+, tobacco smoking >30 pack years, alcohol consumption >60 g/day, age, sex) were used to calculate the individual PS for each DeLOS-II patient and 330 LHSCC patients suitable for DeLOS-II according to eligibility criteria in Leipzig by CRT (78), TL+PORT (148), and TL+PORCT (104). We performed PS matching with caliper width 0.2., Results: The 52 DeLOS-II patients (whole intent-to-treat cohort) and three PS-matched cohorts (52 LHSCC patients each) had equal distribution regarding risk factors including Charlson comorbidity score (CS; all p > 0.05) but differed in outcome. During 12,498.6 months of follow-up, 162 deaths (36/41/43/42 in DeLOS-II/TL+PORCT/TL+PORT/CRT, p = 0.356) occurred; DeLOS-II patients had superior OS and TSS. Compared to DeLOS-II, the HR (95% CI) observed in TL+PORCT, TL+PORT, and CRT for OS and TSS were 1.49 (0.92-2.43), 1.49 (1.15-3.18), and 1.81 (1.11-2.96) for OS; and 2.07 (0.944-4.58), 3.02 (1.32-6.89), and 3.40 (1.58-7.31) for TSS., Conclusion: In addition potential LOP, LA-LHSCC suitable for LOP according the DeLOS-II protocol may achieve improved survival., Competing Interests: The authors declare that the research was conducted in the absence of any commercial or financial relationships that could be construed as a potential conflict of interest.

- Abstract
There is an empirical association between stress and symptoms of food addiction (FA), but it is still not clear which domains of stress are the most relevant when it comes to FA, limiting the ability of researchers and practitioners to address problematic eating-related health outcomes. In order to address this gap in the literature, we analysed how different domains of chronic stress are related to FA. We used data from a subsample of the LIFE-Adult-Study (N = 1172), a German cohort study. We conducted a linear regression analysis with stress domains (Trier Inventory for Chronic Stress, TICS) as predictors of FA (Yale Food Addiction Scale, YFAS). In the second regression analysis we included sociodemographic variables, personality, and smoking as control variables. There was a significant and positive association between Social Overload, Work Discontent, Excessive Demands from Work, and Chronic Worrying and FA. After adding control variables, only Social Overload, Excessive Demands from Work, and Chronic Worrying remained significant predictors. Connections between stress domains and FA can serve as starting points for the development of meaningful interventions that support individuals self-care strategies (Social Overload), complexity management (Excessive Demands from Work), and coping with negative emotions (Chronic Worrying)., (© 2023 The Authors.

- Abstract
Studies show a connection between anxiety and stress, but with little differentiation between different domains of stress. In this article, we utilize a multi-dimensional approach to better understand the relationship between different chronic stress domains and anxiety. This will allow researchers to identify and address those areas of stress that are most relevant with regard to anxiety. We used data from a sub sample of the LIFE-Adult-Study (n = 1085) to analyze the association between nine different areas of chronic stress (Trier Inventory for Chronic Stress, TICS) and anxiety (General Anxiety Disorder 7, GAD-7), controlling for sociodemographic variables, personality, and social support. There was a significant and positive association between Work Overload, Pressure to Perform, Social Tensions, Social Isolation, Chronic Worrying, and anxiety. After including the control variables, only Work Overload and Chronic Worrying remained significant. By focusing on Work Overload and Chronic Worrying researchers, practitioners, and policy makers can help to mitigate anxiety and related health problems in the population in an efficient way.

- Abstract
Background: The financial toxicity of cancer causes higher morbidity and mortality. As the financial burden due to head and neck cancer (HNC) in European healthcare systems with legally established compulsory health insurance is still poorly understood, we set up an investigation to assess the financial impact of HNC., Methods: Between August 2022 and March 2023, HNC consecutive patients ( n = 209) attending the cancer aftercare program of a university hospital in an outpatient setting were surveyed utilizing self-administered questionnaires about their socioeconomic situation, income loss, and out-of-pocket payments (OOPPs)., Results: The majority of HNC patients ( n = 119, 59.5%) reported significant financial burden as a consequence of OOPP ( n = 100, 50.0%) and/or income loss ( n = 51, 25.5%). HNC patients reporting financial burden due to OOPP had on average 1,716 € per year costs related to their disease, whereas patients reporting an income loss had a mean monthly income loss of 620.53 €. Advanced UICC (7th edition, 2017) stage, T3 or T4 category, and larynx/hypopharynx cancer are significant predictors of financial burden., Conclusion: HNC survivors suffer from significant financial burden after HNC treatment, even in Germany with a healthcare system with statutory health insurance. The findings from this study offer valuable insights for healthcare professionals and policymakers, helping them acknowledge the economic impact of HNC., Competing Interests: The authors declare that the research was conducted in the absence of any commercial or financial relationships that could be construed as a potential conflict of interest.

50. Frailty and Increased Levels of Symptom Burden Can Predict the Presence of Each Other in HNSCC Patients.

Kunz V, Wichmann G, Wald T, Dietz A, and Wiegand S
- Abstract
Frailty is an important risk factor for adverse events (AEs), especially in elderly patients. Therefore, assessing frailty before therapy is recommended. In head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) patients, frailty is prognostic for severe postoperative complications and declining quality of life (QoL) after HNSCC treatment. Thus, assessment of frailty may help to identify individuals at risk for AE caused by oncologic therapy. We investigated the relationship between frailty and symptom burden to better understand their interaction and impact on HNSCC patients. In this prospectively designed cross-sectional study, the presence of frailty and symptom burden was assessed by using the Geriatric 8 (G8) and Minimal Documentation System (MIDOS
2 ) questionnaires. A total of 59 consecutively accrued patients with a first diagnosis of HNSCC before therapy were evaluated. Patients were considered frail at a total G8 score ≤ 14. The MIDOS2 symptom burden score was considered pathological with a total score ≥ 4 or any severe symptom (=3). Statistical correlations were analyzed using Spearman and Pearson correlation. Receiver operator characteristic (ROC) curves were used to analyze the potential of predicting frailty and MIDOS2 . p -values < 0.05 were considered significant. A total of 41 patients (69.5%) were considered frail, and 27 patients (45.8%) had increased symptom burden. "Tiredness" was the most common (overall rate 57.8%) and "Pain" was the most often stated "severe" symptom (5 patients, 8.5%). G8 and MIDOS2 correlated significantly (ρ = -0.487, p < 0.001; r = -0.423, p < 0.001). Frailty can be predicted by MIDOS2 symptom score (AUC = 0.808, 95% CI 0.698-0.917, p < 0.001). Vice versa, the G8 score can predict pathological symptom burden according to MIDOS2 (AUC = 0.750, 95% CI 0.622-0.878, p < 0.001). Conclusions: The strong link between frailty and increased symptom burden assessed by G8 or MIDOS2 indicates a coherence of both risk factors in HNSCC patients. Considering at least one of both scores might improve the identification of individuals at risk and achieve higher QoL and reduced complication rates by decision making for appropriate therapy regimens., Competing Interests: The authors declare no conflict of interest.- Published
