Abstract

Systematic analyses of global cancer rates suggest the annual number of head and neck cancer (HNC) cases is approaching 1 million and in England 5-year survival rates are remain around 50%. This is due to metastasis and recurrence which are thought to be driven by a subset of cells within the tumour with stem cell-like properties, so-called cancer stem cells (CSCs). Within HNC further sub-populations of CSCs with a mesenchymal phenotype have been identified. To better understand the role of these epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) cells in cancer progression in vitro models are used. One rapid way of creating a system with a controlled surface environment for studying cell behaviour is to use self-assembled monolayers (SAMs). Here we use a peptide-based SAM to immobilise hyaluronic acid (HA), which plays a role in HNC progression, to create and characterise a model surface for studying the interaction with cells in vitro. This surface can support the culture of cancer cells and, when compared to existing methods of HA immobilisation, has different properties, including roughness and hydrophobicity and was seen to influence cell migration. In vitro use of HA-inspired glycopolymers was also assessed for their ability to mimic HA's effects on cancer cell behaviour, with a view to reducing the use of animal-derived HA. In parallel studies phage display was used to identify a peptide which showed enhanced binding to the EMT subset of CSCs. This peptide can then be used in the previously established SAM system to create a surface with the potential to probe cancer cell behaviour in a well-defined surface. Looking ahead this surface could be used for crude enrichment of the EMT fraction and determining the peptide's cell surface binding partner could provide an additional marker for FACS-based isolation of this population.

Abstract

We present high-speed photometric observations of ZZ Ceti white dwarf candidates drawn from the spectroscopic survey of bright DA stars from the Villanova White Dwarf Catalog by Gianninas et al., and from the recent spectroscopic survey of white dwarfs within 40 parsecs of the Sun by Limoges et al. We report the discovery of six new ZZ Ceti pulsators from these surveys, and several photometrically constant DA white dwarfs, which we then use to refine the location of the ZZ Ceti instability strip., Comment: 4 pages, 1 table, 2 figures, to appear in "19th European White Dwarf Workshop" in the ASP Conference Series

Abstract

We present the results of a campaign to search for subdwarf O (sdO) star pulsators among bright field stars. The motivation for this project is the recent discovery by Randall et al. (2011), of four rapidly pulsating sdO stars in the globular cluster Omega Cen, with Teff near 50,000 K, 5.4 < log g < 6.0, and hydrogen-rich atmospheres. The only previously known sdO pulsator is significantly hotter at 68,500 K and log g = 6.1. All of the sdO pulsators identified so far are fainter than 17.4 in the V band and, thus, are poor candidates for an in-depth follow-up with asteroseismology. We therefore obtained high S/N light curves and spectroscopy for a number of field sdO stars to attempt to discover bright counterparts to these stars, particularly the Omega Cen pulsators. Our primary sample consisted of 19 sdO stars with hydrogen-rich atmospheres, log N(He)/N(H) < -1.0, effective temperatures in the range 40,000 K < Teff < 67,000 K, and surface gravities 5.3 < log g < 6.1. We also observed 17 additional helium-rich sdO stars with log N(He)/N(H) > -0.1 and similar temperatures and gravities. To date, we have found no detectable pulsations at amplitudes above 0.08% (4 times the mean noise level) in any of the 36 field sdO stars that we observed. The presence of pulsations in Omega Cen sdO stars and their apparent absence in seemingly comparable field sdO stars is perplexing. While very suggestive, the significance of this result is difficult to assess more completely right now due to remaining uncertainties about the temperature width and purity of the Omega Cen instability strip and the existence of any sdO pulsators with weaker amplitudes than the current detection limit in globular clusters., Comment: 6 pages, 3 figures, 1 table, to be published in the ASP Conference Series, The Sixth Meeting of Hot Subdwarfs

Abstract

One by-product of the large-scale manufacture of biological products is the generation of significant quantities of process data. Typically this data is catalogued and stored in accordance with regulatory requirements, but rarely is it used to enhance subsequent production. A large amount of useful information is inherent in this data; the problems lie in the lack of appropriate methods to apply in order to extract it. The identification and/or development of tools capable of providing access to this valuable, untapped resource are therefore an important area for research. The main objective of this research is to investigate whether it is possible to attain knowledge from the information inherent within process data. The approach adopted in this thesis is to utilise the tools and techniques prevalent in the areas of data mining and pattern recognition. Through the application of these techniques, it is hypothesised that useful information can be acquired. Specifically the industrial sponsors of the research, Avecia Biologics, are interested in looking at methods for comparing new proteins to those they have previously worked on, with the intention of inferring information pertaining to the large scale manufacturing route for different processes. It is hypothesised that by comparing proteins and looking for similarities at the molecular level, it could be possible to identify potential pit-falls and bottlenecks in the recovery process before they occur. This would then allow Avecia to highlight areas of process development that may require specific attention. Two main techniques are the primary focus of the study; the Self-Organising Map (SOM) and the Support Vector Machine (SVM). Through a detailed investigation of these techniques, from benchmarking studies to applications with real-world problems, it is shown that these methods have the potential to become a useful tool for extracting information from biological process data.

Abstract

Objective: To quantify the extent of food and beverage advertising on bus shelters in a deprived area of the UK that has no restrictions on this activity, to identify the healthfulness of advertised products and the creative strategies used and extent of appeal to young people, and to identify differences by level of deprivation.Design: Images of all bus shelter advertisements across the two unitary authorities were collected via in person photography (in 2019) and verified using Google Street View (photos recorded in 2018). All advertisements were coded according to advert type. Food and beverage advertisements were coded as brand or product ads and into one of seventeen food categories. These items were classified as healthy/less healthy using the UK Nutrient Profile Model. The deprivation level of the ad location was identified using the UK Index of Multiple Deprivation.Setting: This study took place in South Teesside, specifically the unitary authorities of Middlesbrough and Redcar and Cleveland.Participants: There are no participants in this study.Results: 832 advertisements were identified in total, almost half (48.9%) of which were for foods or beverages. Of the food and beverage adverts, 35.1% were classed as less healthy. Close to a quarter (22.2%) of food advertisements used creative strategies, almost all of these were competitions. Food advertisements were found to be of appeal to children under 12 years (47.3%) and adolescents, 13-17 years (70.5%). Most bus shelters, and therefore most food advertising, was in the most deprived area but not meaningful differences in advertising was found by level of deprivation.Conclusions: Food advertising is extensive on bus shelters in the UK, and a substantial proportion of this advertising is classified as less healthy and would not be permitted to be advertised around television programming for children. Bus shelter advertising should be considered part of the UK policy deliberations around restricting less healthy food marketing exposure.

Abstract

3 pages, The occupancy assumption “one burrow system, one animal” (Sardà and Aguzzi, 2012) raises a number of generic research questions concerning the true occupation of burrows in many Nephrops stocks. The burrow system acts as the centre of a strong territorial rhythmic behaviour (Rice and Chapman, 1971; Farmer, 1975) leading the adults’ lobsters to evict subordinates from burrows in a dominance hierarchy framework (Sbragaglia et al., 2017); indeed, two wild adult lobsters are rarely found in the same shelter (Cobb and Wang, 1985). Other studies showed evi-dence that no spatial segregation occurs between juveniles and adults (Maynou and Sardà, 1997) achieving the establishment of adult-juvenile complexes (at least 1 adult and 1 juvenile per bur-row), which become separated as juveniles grow (Tuck et al., 1994). Moreover, Nehprops bur-rows systems could also be inhabited by other benthic crustacean species (e.g. Munida sp.) or may remain empty and intact for an unknown period of time after animals’ death (Sardà and Aguzzi, 2012). These factors still create uncertainties about the true numbers of animals occupy-ing burrow systems, representing an important issue when providing a relative or absolute index for determination of Nephrops’ stock status (i.e. Harvest Rate; Sardà and Aguzzi, 2012).

Abstract

The nutritional requirements of adolescence and the reported poor UK eating behaviours of young people are a significant public health concern. Schools are recognised as an effective 'place' setting to enable improvement to nutrition outcomes. The COVID-19 pandemic resulted in UK school closures from March 2020. In re-opening in September 2020, schools were required to meet guidelines to ensure the minimised impact of COVID-19 on the population (DfE 2020). We aimed to evaluate the impact of COVID-19 school guidelines on secondary and post-16 (16-18 years) food provision. An online survey was posted on 8th October to 1st December 2020, targeted at young people, parents and staff of secondary/post-16 education establishments in the UK. Two hundred and fifty-two responses were received, of which 91% reported a change in their school food provision, 77% reported time for lunch was shortened and 44% indicated the provision was perceived as less healthy during September 2020 (post-lockdown school return) compared with March 2020 (pre-lockdown). Analyses demonstrated that time, limited choice and healthiness impacted negatively upon young people's school food experience. The COVID-19 pandemic has presented a huge challenge to the delivery of healthy school food to young people. Therefore, schools require more support in following national food standards and incorporating nutrition education and behaviour change strategies within current guidelines.

Abstract

Understanding the social and environmental influencers of eating behaviours has the potential to improve health outcomes for young people. This review aims to explore the effectiveness of school nutrition interventions and the perceptions of young people experiencing a nutrition focused intervention or change in school food policy. A comprehensive systematic search identified studies published between 1 December 2007 to 20 February 2020. Twenty‐seven studies were included: 22 quantitative studies of nutrition related outcomes and five qualitative studies reporting views and perceptions of young people (combined sample of 22,138 participants, mean ages 12–18 years). The primary outcome was nutrition knowledge/dietary behaviours, with secondary outcomes exploring body mass index (BMI) and wellbeing. Due to the heterogeneity of studies, a narrative results description is presented. The findings demonstrate that school nutrition programmes can be effective in reducing sugar, sugar sweetened beverages (SSB) and saturated fat and increasing fruit and vegetable (FV) intake. The lived experiences of young people in a school context provide valuable insights that should be considered in the development of effective school food policy and interventions. This review affirms the significant role that schools can play in supporting good nutrition in all young people and provides opportunities to inform the school food agenda.

Abstract

Summary: Limited data exist on the efficacy of long-term therapies for osteoporosis. In osteoporotic postmenopausal women receiving denosumab for 7years, nonvertebral fracture rates significantly decreased in years 4-7 versus years 1-3. This is the first demonstration of a further benefit on fracture outcomes with long-term therapy for osteoporosis. Introduction: This study aimed to evaluate whether denosumab treatment continued beyond 3years is associated with a further reduction in nonvertebral fracture rates. Methods: Participants who completed the 3-year placebo-controlled Fracture REduction Evaluation of Denosumab in Osteoporosis every 6 Months (FREEDOM) study were invited to participate in an open-label extension. The present analysis includes 4,074 postmenopausal women with osteoporosis (n = 2,343 long-term; n = 1,731 cross-over) who enrolled in the extension, missed ≤1 dose during their first 3years of denosumab treatment, and continued into the fourth year of treatment. Comparison of nonvertebral fracture rates during years 1-3 of denosumab with that of the fourth year and with the rate during years 4-7 was evaluated. Results: For the combined group, the nonvertebral fracture rate per 100 participant-years was 2.15 for the first 3years of denosumab treatment (referent) and 1.36 in the fourth year (rate ratio [RR] = 0.64; 95% confidence interval (CI) = 0.48 to 0.85, p = 0.003). Comparable findings were observed in the groups separately and when nonvertebral fracture rates during years 1-3 were compared to years 4-7 in the long-term group (RR = 0.79; 95% CI = 0.62 to 1.00, p = 0.046). Fracture rate reductions in year 4 were most prominent in subjects with persisting low hip bone mineral density (BMD). Conclusions: Denosumab treatment beyond 3years was associated with a further reduction in nonvertebral fracture rate that persisted through 7years of continuous denosumab administration. The degree to which denosumab further reduces nonvertebral fracture risk ap

Abstract

Adult obesity in the UK remains a public health priority. Current guidance recommends local areas provide multicomponent interventions to treat adults with overweight and obesity; however, there is currently a dearth of published evidence on the evaluation of these programmes. This study reports on a mixed method evaluation of seven tier 2 weight management programmes funded by a local authority in the North of England through their public health grant (a lifestyle multicomponent weight management programme for the treatment of adults with overweight and obesity, but not severe obesity, or obesity with severe co‐morbidities). Data collected from over 2000 participants demonstrated that the proportion of participants achieving 5% initial body weight loss was comparable to that reported in recent UK weight management trials. Two services exceeded national criteria of 30% of participants achieving 5% initial body weight loss at 12 weeks, although long term data was limited. Greater weight loss was also observed in participants aged 35–44 and those without co‐morbidities. This study provides important learning points for improvements in real world weight management services, these include: standardised data collection and management tools; staff training and communication requirements; the importance of programmes that are joined up to wider support services; and the importance of providing ongoing peer and provider support, continuous monitoring and feedback, and physical activities tailored to user needs.

Abstract

The objective of the study is to review the characteristics, impact and practice implications of specialist weight management services for adults in the UK. Systematic review: EMBASE, MEDLINE and PsycINFO were searched from January 2005 to March 2016 with supplementary searches. Adults with a body mass index of ≥40 kg m−2, or ≥35 kg m−2 with comorbidity or ≥30 kg m−2 with type 2 diabetes and any study of multicomponent interventions, in any UK or Ireland setting, delivered by a specialist multidisciplinary team are the inclusion criteria. Fourteen studies in a variety of settings were included: 1 randomized controlled trial, 3 controlled and 10 observational studies. Mean baseline body mass index and age ranged from 40 to 54 kg m−2 and from 40 to 58 years. The studies were heterogeneous making comparisons of service characteristics difficult. Multidisciplinary team composition and eligibility criteria varied; dropout rates were high (43–62%). Statistically significant reduction in mean body mass index over time ranged from −1.4 to −3.1 kg m−2 and mean weight changes ranged from −2.2 to −12.4 kg. Completers achieving at least 5% reduction of initial body weight ranged from 32 to 51%. There was evidence for improved outcomes in diabetics. Specialist weight management services can demonstrate clinically significant weight loss and have an important role in supporting adults to manage severe and often complex forms of obesity. This review highlights important variations in provision and strongly indicates the need for further research into effective approaches to support severely obese adults.

Abstract

Sugar-sweetened beverage (SSB) consumption is associated with adverse health outcomes. Improved understanding of the determinants will inform effective interventions to reduce SSB consumption. A total of 46,876 papers were identified through searching eight electronic databases. Evidence from intervention (n = 13), prospective (n = 6) and cross-sectional (n = 25) studies on correlates/determinants of SSB consumption was quality assessed and synthesized. Twelve correlates/determinants were associated with higher SSB consumption (child's preference for SSBs, TV viewing/screen time and snack consumption; parents' lower socioeconomic status, lower age, SSB consumption, formula milk feeding, early introduction of solids, using food as rewards, parental-perceived barriers, attending out-of-home care and living near a fast food/convenience store). Five correlates/determinants were associated with lower SSB consumption (parental positive modelling, parents' married/co-habiting, school nutrition policy, staff skills and supermarket nearby). There was equivocal evidence for child's age and knowledge, parental knowledge, skills, rules/restrictions and home SSB availability. Eight intervention studies targeted multi-level (child, parents, childcare/preschool setting) determinants; four were effective. Four intervention studies targeted parental determinants; two were effective. One (effective) intervention targeted the preschool environment. There is consistent evidence to support potentially modifiable correlates/determinants of SSB consumption in young children acting at parental (modelling), child (TV viewing) and environmental (school policy) levels.

Abstract

Following acute stroke, deterioration in nutritional status and weight loss is common; few studies have investigated this, perhaps due to difficulties with recruitment and completion of complex assessments with stroke patients. This study reports the feasibility of a study protocol to determine predictors of nutritional intake in stroke patients. The aim of the study was to test the feasibility of a protocol to measure taste and smell function, and explore links with dietary intake following stroke. Patients were recruited from one Acute Stroke Unit in 2007/8. Data were collected at three time-points and entailed standardised validated assessments of taste and smell function, diet, appetite and mood state. Recruitment of this vulnerable population to a demanding assessment schedule was challenging. Of a cohort of 166 admissions, six were recruited and complete data collected from four participants. Slow recruitment was largely due to exacting inclusion criteria and rapid hospital discharge. Those who completed all assessments reported the schedule as tolerable and acceptable. This study illustrated the difficulties of recruiting this vulnerable population. Identification of reasons for slow recruitment facilitated development of measures to address them. It was possible to format a complex and lengthy assessment schedule to be acceptable to vulnerable participants. © The Author(s) 2010.

Abstract

Libby Morimoto1, Jenna Coalson1, Fionna Mowat1, Cynthia O’Malley21Exponent Health Sciences, Menlo Park, CA, USA; 2Amgen Global Epidemiology, Thousand Oaks, CA, USAAims: To review literature describing factors associated with receipt of chemotherapy for breast cancer, to better understand what factors are most relevant to women’s health and whether health disparities are apparent, and to assess how these factors might affect observational studies and outcomes research. Patterns of care for metastatic breast cancer, for which no standard-of-care exists, were of particular interest.Methods: Relevant studies written in English, Italian, French, or Spanish, published in 2000 or later, were identified through MEDLINE and reviewed. Review articles and clinical trials were excluded; all observational studies and surveys were considered. Articles were reviewed for any discussion of patient characteristics, hospital/physician/insurance characteristics, psychosocial characteristics, and clinical characteristics affecting receipt of chemotherapy by breast cancer patients.Results: In general, factors associated with increased likelihood of receiving chemotherapy included younger age, being Caucasian, having good general health and few co-morbidities, having more severe clinical disease, having responded well to previous treatment, and having breast cancer that is estrogen- or progesterone-receptor-negative. Many of the clinical factors found to increase the likelihood of receiving chemotherapy were consistent with current oncology guidelines. Of the relevant 19 studies identified, only six (32%) reported data specific to metastatic cancer; most studies aggregated women with stage I–IV for purposes of analysis.Conclusion: Studies of patterns of care in breast cancer treatment can help identify challenges in health care provided to particular subgroups of women and can aid researchers in designing studies that account for such factors in clinical and

45. Electrovitreotomy. 2. Principles and results.

Author

O'Malley, C and Heintz, R M

Abstract

Continued experience confirms the suitability of electrovitreotomy for dividing pathogenically taut proliferative and non-proliferative vitreous forms with a minimum of bleeding, and an inability to cut vitreous of ordinary consistency and tension. It differs directly with electrovitrectomy in these regards. To use effectively with a minimum of complications it is mandatory to have a vitrectomy capability immediately at hand and to respect a wide variety of interrelated factors that include: current density, electrical resistance of tissues, duration of electrical action: dimension, insulation, and configuration of the electrode: configuration, tension, location, and morphological content of dissectable structures. Mobile and dispersed blood in the liquid of the retrovitreal space often surrounds cuttable vitreous lesions. Frequently rest causes it to sediment and improves viewing sufficiently to permit effective electrovitreotomy without vitrectomy. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]
