Abstract

BackgroundChildren with craniopharyngiomas (CPs) typically suffer from a life-long chronic disease. The younger the child, the more vulnerable the maturing brain is to invasive therapies such as surgery or radiotherapy. Therefore, treatment modalities facilitating avoidance or delay of invasive therapies are beneficial for these patients. In the last decade, intracystic injection of interferon alfa-2a or alfa-2b evolved as a treatment of choice based on efficacy and minor toxicity. However, the drug is no longer available internationally. After an extensive pharmacological review, peginterferon alfa-2a was identified as the agent with closest similarity.MethodsA retrospective case series is described, including five patients treated with intracystic peginterferon alfa-2a for cystic CP according to an innovative care protocol. After initial CP cyst aspiration, peginterferon alfa-2a was injected once per week via an Ommaya reservoir for 6 weeks followed by response assessment with MRI.ResultsPatients’ age ranged from 4 to 54 years (four patients

Abstract

While mental disorders have been broadly researched in people with intellectual disabilities (ID), comparatively less attention has been given to the conceptualisation of good mental health for this population. To capture existing concepts, definitions and measurement approaches of good mental health a systematic literature review was conducted following PRISMA guidelines. The search was carried out in eleven databases, using various synonyms of (i) intellectual disability, (ii) mental health, (iii) wellbeing, (iv) definition, and (v) assessment. A total of 2,046 datasets were identified, of which 37 met the inclusion criteria and were analysed using reflexive thematic analysis and content analysis. Results show four main themes: (1) environment, (2) absence of mental illness, (3) physical health, and (4) psychosocial functioning. The fourth was the most dominant theme and was further divided into five sub-themes: (1) emotionality, (2) interpersonal relations, (3) realise own potential, (4) personal resources, and (5) overall appraisal of life. Our findings reveal different conceptualisations of wellbeing, which is a vital part of good mental health, but highlight a notable research gap in the actual definition and conceptualisation of good mental health for people with ID.

Abstract

ObjectiveThe objective of this study was to analyze the feasibility and acceptance of a non-invasive, daily and proactive screening program for SARS-CoV-2 infection employing serial saliva testing, in combination with a digital questionnaire among healthcare providers (HCPs) in a multi-professional setting.DesignThis was a prospective cohort study involving HCPs from different units at a single tertiary care center, over a pilot phase of 4 weeks during the first wave of the COVID-19 pandemic from April 18th to June 6th, 2020.SettingPediatric tertiary patient care units, Comprehensive Center for Pediatrics, Medical University of Vienna.SubjectsHCPs from different units, including physicians, nurses, midwives, and administrative staff (with patient contact) were considered eligible for the study. Study participants were working in different settings in our center at varying levels of risk exposure.InterventionsSaliva collection from mouth gargle and electronic symptom and exposure monitoring (eSEM) was performed by participants at the onset of each regular clinical shift (day or night shift), using an anonymous ID for matching the results.MeasurementsRT-PCR of all saliva samples, eSEM, as well as feasibility and acceptance thereof.ResultsTwo hundred and seventy-five volunteers collected 1,865 saliva samples and responded 1,378 times in the eSEM during a 4-week period. 1,331 (96.7%) responses were that the testing was feasible and acceptable. The most common severe symptom during the 4-week period mentioned by HCPs was headache, reported 54 times (3.9%). Two SARS-CoV-2 positive samples—one of them being associated with symptoms—were identified. The acceptance rate among HCPs was 96.6%.ConclusionSerial saliva screening was a well-accepted and feasible method for monitoring SARS-CoV-2 infectious state in health care professionals. Combination of regular SARS-CoV-2 tests with sequential saliva collection and storage could potentially represent a highly efficient strategy to identify and trace virus positive staff for employee and patient safety.

The younger the child, the more vulnerable the maturing brain is to invasive therapies such as surgery or radiotherapy. Therefore, treatment modalities facilitating avoidance or delay of invasive therapies are beneficial for these patients. In the last decade, intracystic injection of interferon alfa-2a or alfa-2b evolved as a treatment of choice based on efficacy and minor toxicity. However, the drug is no longer available internationally. After an extensive pharmacological review, peginterferon alfa-2a was identified as the agent with closest similarity. Methods: A retrospective case series is described, including five patients treated with intracystic peginterferon alfa-2a for cystic CP according to an innovative care protocol. After initial CP cyst aspiration, peginterferon alfa-2a was injected once per week via an Ommaya reservoir for 6 weeks followed by response assessment with MRI. Results: Patients' age ranged from 4 to 54 years (four patients <12 years, one adult patient). Intracystic therapy with peginterferon alfa-2a was tolerated well by all five individuals without any major toxicities and resulted in cyst shrinkage in all of the five patients. The importance of a permeability study prior to commencing intracystic therapy became apparent in one patient who suffered from cyst leakage. Conclusions: Intracystic treatment with peginterferon alfa-2a was found to be a tolerable and efficacious treatment modality in patients with cystic CP. This experience warrants further research with a larger number of patients with measurement of long-term efficacy and safety outcomes. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

Background: Preterm infants are at risk for neurodevelopmental deficits. An association between retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) and impaired cognitive outcome has already been described. However, less is known about the impact of ROP on visual motor integration (VMI), which is a prerequisite not only for fine motor abilities but also for further school skills. Therefore, the aim of this study was to retrospectively investigate the impact of ROP on VMI at preschool age. Methods: The study was conducted at the Medical University of Vienna, including patients born between January 2009 and December 2014 with a gestational age of less than 30 weeks and/or a birth weight of less than 1,500 g. VMI was determined by Beery-Buktenica Developmental Test of Visual Motor Integration (Beery VMI) at the age of 5 years. Results: Out of 1,365 patients, 353 met inclusion criteria for this study. Two hundred sixteen of them had no ROP, while 137 had ROP (stage 1: n = 23, stage 2: n = 74, stage 3: n = 40). Mean value of the Beery VMI score was significantly lower in the ROP group compared to the No-ROP group (90 ± 16 vs. 99 ± 14; p < 0.01). By correcting for other important medical conditions, ROP still had a significant impact on Beery VMI score (p < 0.01). Particularly, lower scores were found for stage 2 (p < 0.01) and stage 3 (p < 0.01). Conclusion: Beery VMI scores were significantly lower in preterm infants with ROP stage 2 and 3 than in infants without ROP. This study shows the negative impact of ROP on VMI skills at preschool age, even after adjustment for key demographic and medical characteristics.

Abstract

We report a case of esophageal cancer with solitary metastasis to the testicle in a 71-year-old man. The tumor was picked up on physical exam following new onset complaints of pain and swelling. While most testicular masses in older men are due to lymphoma, this case highlights the need to consider metastatic disease as a source of new symptoms in patients with a recent cancer diagnosis.

Abstract

Approximately 500,000 individuals diagnosed with bladder cancer in the U.S. require routine cystoscopic follow-up to monitor for disease recurrences or progression, resulting in over $2 billion in annual expenditures. Identification of new diagnostic and monitoring strategies are clearly needed, and markers related to DNA methylation alterations hold great promise due to their stability, objective measurement, and known associations with the disease and with its clinical features. To identify novel epigenetic markers of aggressive bladder cancer, we utilized a high-throughput DNA methylation bead-array in two distinct population-based series of incident bladder cancer (n = 73 and n = 264, respectively). We then validated the association between methylation of these candidate loci with tumor grade in a third population (n = 245) through bisulfite pyrosequencing of candidate loci. Array based analyses identified 5 loci for further confirmation with bisulfite pyrosequencing. We identified and confirmed that increased promoter methylation of HOXB2 is significantly and independently associated with invasive bladder cancer and methylation of HOXB2, KRT13 and FRZB together significantly predict high-grade non-invasive disease. Methylation of these genes may be useful as clinical markers of the disease and may point to genes and pathways worthy of additional examination as novel targets for therapeutic treatment.

Abstract

BACKGROUND: Genomic regions identified by genome-wide association studies (GWAS) for bladder cancer risk provide new insights into etiology. OBJECTIVE: To identify new susceptibility variants for bladder cancer in a meta-analysis of new and existing genome-wide genotype data. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS: Data from 32 studies that includes 13,790 bladder cancer cases and 343,502 controls of European ancestry were used for meta-analysis. OUTCOME MEASUREMENTS AND STATISTICAL ANALYSES: Log-additive associations of genetic variants were assessed using logistic regression models. A fixed-effects model was used for meta-analysis of the results. Stratified analyses were conducted to evaluate effect modification by sex and smoking status. A polygenic risk score (PRS) was generated on the basis of known and novel susceptibility variants and tested for interaction with smoking. RESULTS AND LIMITATIONS: Multiple novel bladder cancer susceptibility loci (6p.22.3, 7q36.3, 8q21.13, 9p21.3, 10q22.1, 19q13.33) as well as improved signals in three known regions (4p16.3, 5p15.33, 11p15.5) were identified, bringing the number of independent markers at genome-wide significance (p < 5 × 10-8) to 24. The 4p16.3 (FGFR3/TACC3) locus was associated with a stronger risk for women than for men (p-interaction = 0.002). Bladder cancer risk was increased by interactions between smoking status and genetic variants at 8p22 (NAT2; multiplicative p value for interaction [pM-I] = 0.004), 8q21.13 (PAG1; pM-I = 0.01), and 9p21.3 (LOC107987026/MTAP/CDKN2A; pM-I = 0.02). The PRS based on the 24 independent GWAS markers (odds ratio per standard deviation increase 1.49, 95% confidence interval 1.44-1.53), which also showed comparable results in two prospective cohorts (UK Biobank, PLCO trial), revealed an approximately fourfold difference in the lifetime risk of bladder cancer according to the PRS (e.g., 1st vs 10th decile) for both smokers and nonsmokers.

Abstract

Background: Liquid biopsy diagnostic methods are an emerging complementary tool to imaging and pathology techniques across various cancer types. However, there is still no established method for the detection of molecular alterations and disease monitoring in MB, the most common malignant CNS tumor in the pediatric population. In the presented study, we investigated droplet digital polymerase chain reaction (ddPCR) as a highly sensitive method for the detection of MYC amplification in bodily fluids of group 3 MB patients. Methods: We identified a cohort of five MYC-amplified MBs by methylation array and FISH. Predesigned and wet-lab validated probes for ddPCR were used to establish the detection method and were validated in two MYC-amplified MB cell lines as well as tumor tissue of the MYC-amplified cohort. Finally, a total of 49 longitudinal CSF samples were analyzed at multiple timepoints during the course of the disease. Results: Detection of MYC amplification by ddPCR in CSF showed a sensitivity and specificity of 90% and 100%, respectively. We observed a steep increase in amplification rate (AR) at disease progression in 3/5 cases. ddPCR was proven to be more sensitive than cytology for the detection of residual disease. In contrast to CSF, MYC amplification was not detectable by ddPCR in blood samples. Conclusions: ddPCR proves to be a sensitive and specific method for the detection of MYC amplification in the CSF of MB patients. These results warrant implementation of liquid biopsy in future prospective clinical trials to validate the potential for improved diagnosis, disease staging and monitoring.

Abstract

Nutrition may impact bladder cancer survival. We examined the association between diet quality and overall and bladder cancer-specific survival. Bladder cancer cases from a population-based study reported pre-diagnosis diet. Diet quality was assessed using the 2010 Alternate Healthy Eating Index (AHEI-2010). Vital status was ascertained from the National Death Index. Adjusted hazard ratios (HR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) were estimated using proportional hazards and competing risks regression models. Overall AHEI-2010 adherence was not associated with overall or bladder cancer-specific survival among non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) cases (HR, 1.00; 95% CI, 0.98–1.01; HR, 1.00; 95% CI, 0.97–1.02) or muscle invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) cases (HR, 0.99; 95% CI, 0.96–1.03; HR, 1.01, 95% CI 0.97–1.06). AHEI-2010 sugar-sweetened beverages adherence was associated with poorer overall survival (HR, 1.04; 95% CI, 1.01–1.08) and AHEI-2010 sodium adherence was associated with better overall and bladder cancer-specific survival after NMIBC diagnosis (HR, 0.92, 95% CI, 0.85–1.00; HR, 0.82; 95% CI, 0.68–0.98). AHEI-2010 fruit adherence was associated with poorer overall and bladder cancer-specific survival after MIBC diagnosis (HR, 1.17; 95% CI, 1.02–1.33; HR, 1.26; 95% CI, 1.03–1.55). Consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages, sodium, and fruit, not overall AHEI-2010 adherence, may be associated with bladder cancer survival.

Abstract

Background: Preterm infants are at risk for neurodevelopmental deficits. An association between retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) and impaired cognitive outcome has already been described. However, less is known about the impact of ROP on visual motor integration (VMI), which is a prerequisite not only for fine motor abilities but also for further school skills. Therefore, the aim of this study was to retrospectively investigate the impact of ROP on VMI at preschool age. Methods: The study was conducted at the Medical University of Vienna, including patients born between January 2009 and December 2014 with a gestational age of less than 30 weeks and/or a birth weight of less than 1,500 g. VMI was determined by Beery-Buktenica Developmental Test of Visual Motor Integration (Beery VMI) at the age of 5 years. Results: Out of 1,365 patients, 353 met inclusion criteria for this study. Two hundred sixteen of them had no ROP, while 137 had ROP (stage 1: n = 23, stage 2: n = 74, stage 3: n = 40). Mean value of the Beery VMI score was significantly lower in the ROP group compared to the No-ROP group (90 ± 16 vs. 99 ± 14; p < 0.01). By correcting for other important medical conditions, ROP still had a significant impact on Beery VMI score (p < 0.01). Particularly, lower scores were found for stage 2 (p < 0.01) and stage 3 (p < 0.01). Conclusion: Beery VMI scores were significantly lower in preterm infants with ROP stage 2 and 3 than in infants without ROP. This study shows the negative impact of ROP on VMI skills at preschool age, even after adjustment for key demographic and medical characteristics. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

BACKGROUND: Among patients diagnosed with non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC), 30% to 70% experience recurrences within 6 to 12 years of diagnosis. The need to screen for these events every 3 to 6 months and ultimately annually by cystoscopy makes bladder cancer one of the most expensive malignancies to manage. OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to identify reproducible prognostic microRNAs in resected non-muscle invasive bladder tumor tissue that are predictive of the recurrent tumor phenotype as potential biomarkers and molecular therapeutic targets. METHODS: Two independent cohorts of NMIBC patients were analyzed using a biomarker discovery and validation approach, respectively. RESULTS: miRNA Let-7f-5p showed the strongest association with recurrence across both cohorts. Let-7f-5p levels in urine and plasma were both found to be significantly correlated with levels in tumor tissue. We assessed the therapeutic potential of targeting Lin28, a negative regulator of Let-7f-5p, with small-molecule inhibitor C1632. Lin28 inhibition significantly increased levels of Let-7f-5p expression and led to significant inhibition of viability and migration of HTB-2 cells. CONCLUSIONS: We have identified Let-7f-5p as a miRNA biomarker of recurrence in NMIBC tumors. We further demonstrate that targeting Lin28, a negative regulator of Let-7f-5p, represents a novel potential therapeutic opportunity in NMIBC.

Abstract

Recent studies indicate that bladder cancer is among the top 10 most common cancers in the world (Saginala et al. 2022). Bladder cancer frequently reoccurs, and prognostic judgments may vary among clinicians. As a favorable prognosis may help to inform less aggressive treatment plans, classification of histopathology slides is essential for the accurate prognosis and effective treatment of bladder cancer patients. Developing automated and accurate histopathology image analysis methods can help pathologists determine the prognosis of patients with bladder cancer.In this study, we introduced Bladder4Net, a deep learning pipeline, to classify whole-slide histopathology images of bladder cancer into two classes: low-risk (combination of PUNLMP and low-grade tumors) and high-risk (combination of high-grade and invasive tumors). This pipeline consists of four convolutional neural network (CNN)-based classifiers to address the difficulties of identifying PUNLMP and invasive classes. We evaluated our pipeline on 182 independent whole-slide images from the New Hampshire Bladder Cancer Study (NHBCS) (Karagas et al., 1998; Sverrisson et al., 2014; Sverrisson et al., 2014) collected from 1994 to 2004 and 378 external digitized slides from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database (https://www.cancer.gov/tcga).The weighted average F1-score of our approach was 0.91 (95% confidence interval (CI): 0.86-0.94) on the NHBCS dataset and 0.99 (95% CI: 0.97-1.00) on the TCGA dataset. Additionally, we computed Kaplan-Meier survival curves for patients who were predicted as high risk versus those predicted as low risk. For the NHBCS test set, patients predicted as high risk had worse overall survival than those predicted as low risk, with a log-rank p-value of 0.004.If validated through prospective trials, our model could be used in clinical settings to improve patient care.
