Objective: This article shows our experience on sentinel lymph node (SLN) biopsy in early-stage cervical carcinoma since the technique was introduced in our Institution. The main objective is to analyze the detection rate (DR) of metastatic SLNs, identifying prognostic factors for an increased risk of nodal metastases. Our second aim was to compare the accuracy of nodal metastases DR between intraoperative analysis and postoperative ultrastaging. Materials and Methods: Forty-one women with the International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics stages IA2-IIA1 who underwent laparoscopic surgical treatment applying the SLN technique, from December 2011 to June 2016, at La Paz University Hospital, were included. The sentinel node was identified using technetium and methylene blue dye or indocyanine green near-infrared fluorescent imaging, analyzed intraoperatively, and compared to deferred ultrastaging. Results: SLN DR was 100%, with a bilaterality rate of 83%. Twelve (26.8%) patients had metastatic nodes, 11 of them (91.7%) detected by SLN technique, of which 9 (81.8%) had only the sentinel node affected. False-negative rate was 2.4% after ultrastaging procedure. Metastatic SLN detection with ultrastaging was 45.5% higher than the intraoperative analysis, 63.6% of which had low tumor burden. The global detection of patients with nodal metastases after SLN technique was 21.9% higher than pelvic lymphadenectomy. Conclusions: Our preliminary results corroborate that SLN biopsy selectively maps metastatic nodes and ultrastaging increases the detection of metastatic SLNs, predominantly due to low tumor burden.

La enfermedad por coronavirus de 2019 (COVID-19) es una emergencia sanitaria pública global con numerosas facetas clínicas que incluyen renopatía aguda y enfermedad cerebrovascular aguda. Es necesario un conocimiento adicional de su mecanismo patogénico. Los trastornos de coagulación están claramente incluidos en dichos mecanismos. La gammapatía monoclonal se caracteriza por la sobreproducción de inmunoglobulina monoclonal causada por proliferación clonal. Utilizando un estudio postmortem de biopsias básicas percutáneas ecoguiadas, el objetivo de este informe es presentar nuestras observaciones sobre la patología del síndrome respiratorio agudo severo por infección de coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV2) con gammapatía monoclonal. La presentación clínica fue insuficiencia renal aguda. Los hallazgos patológicos revelaron nefropatía por depósito de cadenas ligeras kappa. La inmunohistoquímica de SARS-CoV-2 fue positiva en ciertas células tubulares renales. La presencia de megacariocitos alveolares (alta densidad) fue un hallazgo notable, que explica probablemente el resultado final del paciente (enfermedad cerebrovascular aguda). El estudio inmunohistoquímico frente a SARS-CoV-2 no verifica el efecto patogénico del virus y, por tanto, su contribución a la nefropatía aguda.

Background There is a lack of tools to quantify the response to monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) holistically in severe uncontrolled asthma patients. Objective To develop a valid score to assist specialists in this clinical context. Methods The score was developed in four subsequent phases: (1) elaboration of the theoretical model of the construct intended to be measured (response to mAbs); (2) definition and selection of items and measurement instruments by Delphi survey; (3) weight assignment of the selected items by multicriteria decision analysis using the Potentially All Pairwise RanKings of All Possible Alternatives methodology using the 1000minds software; and (4) face validity assessment of the obtained score. Results Four core items, with different levels of response for each, were selected: severe exacerbations, oral corticosteroid use, symptoms (evaluated by Asthma Control Test), and bronchial obstruction (assessed by FEV1 percent predicted). Severe exacerbations and oral corticosteroid maintenance dose were weighted most heavily (38% each), followed by symptoms (13%) and FEV1 (11%). Higher scores in the weighted system indicate a better response and the range of responses runs from 0 (worsening) to 100 (best possible response). Face validity was high (intraclass correlation coefficient of 0.86). Conclusions The FEV1, exacerbations, oral corticosteroids, symptoms score allows clinicians to quantify response in severe uncontrolled asthma patients who are being treated with mAbs.

To compare the concordance in risk classification between the EndoPredict and the MammaPrint scores obtained for the same cancer samples on 40 estrogen-receptor positive/HER2-negative breast carcinomas.Formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded invasive breast carcinoma tissues that were previously analyzed with MammaPrint as part of routine care of the patients, and were classified as high-risk (20 patients) and low-risk (20 patients), were selected to be analyzed by the EndoPredict assay, a second generation gene expression test that combines expression of 8 genes (EP score) with two clinicopathological variables (tumor size and nodal status, EPclin score).The EP score classified 15 patients as low-risk and 25 patients as high-risk. EPclin re-classified 5 of the 25 EP high-risk patients into low-risk, resulting in a total of 20 high-risk and 20 low-risk tumors. EP score and MammaPrint score were significantly correlated (p = 0.008). Twelve of 20 samples classified as low-risk by MammaPrint were also low-risk by EP score (60%). 17 of 20 MammaPrint high-risk tumors were also high-risk by EP score. The overall concordance between EP score and MammaPrint was 72.5% (κ = 0.45, (95% CI, 0.182 to 0.718)). EPclin score also correlated with MammaPrint results (p = 0.004). Discrepancies between both tests occurred in 10 cases: 5 MammaPrint low-risk patients were classified as EPclin high-risk and 5 high-risk MammaPrint were classified as low-risk by EPclin and overall concordance of 75% (κ = 0.5, (95% CI, 0.232 to 0.768)).This pilot study demonstrates a limited concordance between MammaPrint and EndoPredict. Differences in results could be explained by the inclusion of different gene sets in each platform, the use of different methodology, and the inclusion of clinicopathological parameters, such as tumor size and nodal status, in the EndoPredict test.

Few studies have been published focusing on the differences between juvenile idiopathic inflammatory myopathy (JIIM) and adult IIM. This study aimed to describe the characteristics of JIIM main subgroups (juvenile dermatomyositis [JDM] and juvenile polymyositis [JPM]) and to compare their differences with adult IIM subgroups (adult DM and adult PM). Methods This study reviewed the medical records of patients from the REMICAM cohort, a multicentric longitudinal study carried out in patients with IIM, followed up between 1980 and 2014 in 12 hospitals in Madrid, Spain. Patients with definite or probable JPM, JDM, adult DM, and adult PM according to the modified Bohan and Peter criteria were selected. We compared the characteristics between JDM and JPM, and between JIIM and adult IIM. Results Eighty-six juvenile patients (75 JDMs and 11 JPMs) and 283 adult patients (133 DMs and 150 PMs) were included. Compared with patients with JDM, patients with JPM were older at diagnosis, had more fever and arthritis, and were less frequently treated with disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (these differences were not statistically significant). Compared with patients with adult DM, those with JDM presented more frequently with calcinosis (33.8% vs 6.9%, p Conclusions Our findings confirm that JIIMs are a heterogeneous group of diseases with relevant differences compared with adult IIMs.

Introduction and objective Breast cancer can be classified into different molecular subtypes with important therapeutic and prognostic implications. Neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) increases the possibility of performing conservative surgery and allows in vivo testing of the sensitivity of the tumor. Our aim was to evaluate the pathological response to NAC in relation to the molecular phenotype and the different definitions of the pathological response. Patients 228 patients treated with NAC and subsequent surgery between 2012 and 2018 were selected from our breast cancer database. Molecular phenotypes were established based on the criteria of the St Gallen 2013 Conference. Pathological response was evaluated following Miller-Payne (breast) and Sataloff (axilla) classification systems. Results The most frequent molecular phenotype was luminal B/HER2 negative (30.3%), followed by luminal B/HER2 positive (26.3%), triple negative (24.6%), HER2 positive (13.2%), and luminal A (5.7%). The rate of pathological complete response (pCR) was 35.5% in breast and 15.3% in axilla. The rate of pCR considering breast and axilla together was 26.8%. The molecular phenotype with the highest rate of pCR was HER2 positive (66.7%) followed by triple negative (30.4%), luminal B/HER2 positive (21.7%), luminal B/HER2 negative (14.5%), and luminal A (7.7%) (p Conclusions Complete pathological response to NAC in breast cancer depends largely on the molecular phenotype of the tumor, regardless of the definition of pCR, with the highest response rates in the breast and axilla in the HER2 positive and triple negative phenotypes.

Introduction: Tyrosine kinase inhibitors have been a breakthrough in the treatment of advanced medullary thyroid cancer (MTC), and they can prolong progression-free survival (PFS). Case Presentation: A patient with MTC and metastatic spread to the lymph nodes, lungs, bones, breast, and cerebellum started treatment with vandetanib. During treatment, she developed secondary adrenal insufficiency and hypogonadotropic hypogonadism. After 9 years of vandetanib therapy, the disease has not progressed and the patient maintains a complete response of the breast metastases and a partial response of the other metastatic lesions. Conclusion: To our knowledge, this is the first reported case of secondary adrenal insufficiency and hypogonadotropic hypogonadism related to therapy with vandetanib. Moreover, the prolonged PFS and the complete disappearance of some of the metastatic lesions in this patient are truly unusual.

Objective The aim of the study was to investigate the role of L-DOPA/carbidopa (CD) therapy on vitamin B6 levels in patients with Parkinson disease (PD). Methods This is a cross-sectional retrospective study of vitamin B6 plasma levels in 24 patients with PD treated with L-DOPA/CD for 3 or more years, orally or intraduodenally. Vitamin B6 levels in plasma were measured by ELISA. Results All patients treated with intraduodenal L-DOPA/CD (6 of 6) and 13 of 18 patients receiving L-DOPA/CD orally had low plasma levels of vitamin B6. Eight of the 19 patients with low vitamin B6 levels had symptoms of hypovitaminosis B6. Patients with low vitamin B6 had been treated with larger doses of L-DOPA/CD, although the differences did not have statistical significance. Patients treated with intraduodenal L-DOPA/CD have vitamin B6 levels significantly lower than those treated with oral L-DOPA/CD. The variables that most correlated with vitamin B6 levels were the cumulative annual doses of CD (r = -0.36) and L-DOPA (r = -0.33) during the year preceding the study and the time to develop dyskinesias or fluctuations (r = +0.43). Conclusions Vitamin B6 could play an important role in PD and its levels seem to be influenced by L-DOPA/CD. Plasma vitamin B6 levels should be monitored in patients receiving high L-DOPA/CD doses, especially those treated with intraduodenal infusion.

Introduction The aim of this study was to compare the colonization rates of central venous catheter (CVC) and arterial catheter (ArtC) hubs fitted with two types of needleless connectors (NCs). Methods We designed a prospective randomized study to compare rates of catheter hub colonization of CVC and ArtC hubs fitted with two types of needleless connectors: neutral-pressure NCs (NP-NCs) and positive-pressure NCs (PP-NCs) in critically ill patients. All NCs were replaced every 7 days of use. Results We obtained 326 cultures from 146 catheters (81 CVC and 65 ArtC) in 70 patients. The total cumulative days of risk were 1250 catheter-days. Global swab cultures were positive in NP-NCs in 29/198 (14.6%) versus 17/128 (13.3%) in PP-NCs during catheter use. We did not observe any cases of CRBSI. Conclusions In our experience, the use of PP-NCs did not result in significantly more frequent hub colonization with respect to NP-NCs.

There are three prognostic stratification tools used for endometrial cancer: ESMO-ESGO-ESTRO 2016, ProMisE, and ESGO-ESTRO-ESP 2020. However, these methods are not sufficiently accurate to address prognosis. The aim of this study was to investigate whether the integration of molecular classification and other biomarkers could be used to improve the prognosis stratification in early-stage endometrial cancer. Relapse-free and overall survival of each classifier were analyzed, and the c-index was employed to assess accuracy. Other biomarkers were explored to improve the precision of risk classifiers. We analyzed 293 patients. A comparison between the three classifiers showed an improved accuracy in ESGO-ESTRO-ESP 2020 when RFS was evaluated (c-index = 0.78), although we did not find broad differences between intermediate prognostic groups. Prognosis of these patients was better stratified with the incorporation of CTNNB1 status to the 2020 classifier (c-index 0.81), with statistically significant and clinically relevant differences in 5-year RFS: 93.9% for low risk, 79.1% for intermediate merged group/CTNNB1 wild type, and 42.7% for high risk (includ-ing patients with CTNNB1 mutation). The incorporation of molecular classification in risk stratification resulted in better discriminatory capability, which could be improved even further with the addition of CTNNB1 mutational evaluation, This research was funded by the Instituto de Salud Carlos III (ISCIII), cofinanced by the European Development Regional Fund ‘A way to achieve Europe’ (FEDER, PI17/01723 to D.H.), and by Academy of Finland grant (No. 317680 to J.T.).

Este trabajo es una introducción al análisis de medidas repetidas en estudios longitudinales. Se utiliza un marco analítico con dos etapas, ajustando modelos jerárquicos lineales con dos niveles. El primer nivel corresponde a la ocasión (tiempo) de medida y el segundo al individuo. Estos modelos estadísticos proceden de las ciencias sociales, en las que se han utilizado durante más de 25 años para analizar datos en organizaciones con múltiples niveles. Su aplicación permite estudiar los cambios en alguna característica de interés (estado de salud o factor de riesgo) y analizar las circunstancias que explican la variabilidad en las trayectorias individuales. En este trabajo se introducen los conceptos básicos de este método: variabilidad entre individuos y dentro de cada individuo a lo largo del tiempo, modelo del nivel individual para describir la trayectoria de cada individuo y modelo «entre individuos» para describir cómo cambian las trayectorias entre individuos, efectos fijos y efectos aleatorios, modelos de crecimiento lineal y cuadrático. Para ello se ha realizado un análisis de los cambios en la función cognitiva de una cohorte de personas mayores, el estudio «Envejecer en Leganés», seguida cada dos años, entre 1993 y 1999. Se presentan los resultados de modelos ajustados para resolver las preguntas de investigación más frecuentes en la descripción y el análisis de las trayectorias de cambio individual. Por último, se comentan posibles generalizaciones de estos modelos lineales jerárquicos a situaciones en las que la variable de interés no es continua, como es el caso de las variables dependientes dicotómicas, nominales u ordinales.

Background: neoadjuvant endocrine treatment (NET) has demonstrated to be a useful strategy for downstaging luminal breast cancer as well as to deepen into luminal tumors biology. But, in spite of evidence, NET remains as an under-utilized tool, relegated to elderly frail patients. Purpose: to determine clinical and biological response after NET in luminal breast cancer.Methods: An observational prospective study was performed. Postmenopausal patients with luminal breast cancer T1-3, N0-2 diagnosed between January 2016 and April 2019 were included. They received treatment with letrozole 2,5mg/24h usually for 4-6 months or until maximum response was achieved. A few patients continued treatment further than 6 months because of surgery refusal or contraindication. In the rest of cases, surgery was performed after NET. An intermediate core biopsy (CB) was carried out in those patients with initial Ki67 >10%. Immunohistochemical and conventional pathological studies were made in the initial CB as well as in the intermediate CB and the surgical specimen.PEPI score (PS) was also calculated. Results: a total of 106 patients were included, with an average age of 73.7y [53-90]. 80 (75.5%) were ductal infiltrating carcinomas; 16(15,1%) lobular infiltrating carcinomas. The 10 remaining cases were minority histologic types. 62.3% were luminal B tumors. A positive axilla was present in 16 patients (15.0%). Surgery has been performed in 72 patients. The remaining 33 patients continue treatment nowadays (in 6 of them surgery was dismissed or refused by patient). Breast conserving surgery was feasible in 60 out of 72 (83.3%), although two of these patients chose mastectomy. Average size before treatment was 28.2mm [7.0-90.0], and in the surgical sample (pT) was 15.9mm [4.0-35.0] (p Citation Format: Covadonga Marti, Laura Frias, Adolfo Loayza, Laura Yebenes, Marcos Melendez, Elisa Moreno, Jose M Oliver, Pilar Zamora, Jose I Sanchez-Mendez.

Resumen La sepsis es una entidad sindromica de elevada prevalencia y mortalidad. Su manejo esta estandarizado y tiene una eficacia dependiente del tiempo. Sin embargo, el manejo de los pacientes con sepsis es complejo. La heterogeneidad de las formas de presentacion puede dificultar su deteccion y manejo, asi como las diferencias en formacion, competencias o disponibilidad de recursos sanitarios. La Comision Asesora para la Atencion al PAciente con Sepsis (CAAPAS), formada por 7 sociedades cientificas, el Sistema de Emergencias Medicas (SEM) y el Servei Catala de la Salut (CatSalut), han desarrollado en Catalunya el Codigo Sepsis Interhospitalario (CSI). El objetivo general del CSI es facilitar la deteccion precoz, la atencion inicial y la coordinacion interhospitalaria para optimizar el tratamiento de los pacientes con sepsis o shock septico en formato codigo de riesgo vital, de forma homogenea a lo largo de todo el territorio catalan.

Sepsis is a syndromic entity with high prevalence and mortality. The management of sepsis is standardized and exhibits time-dependent efficiency. However, the management of patients with sepsis is complex. The heterogeneity of the forms of presentation can make it difficult to detect and manage such cases, in the same way as differences in training, professional competences or the availability of health resources. The Advisory Commission for Patient Care with Sepsis (CAAPAS), comprising 7 scientific societies, the Emergency Medical System (SEM) and the Catalan Health Service (CatSalut), have developed the Interhospital Sepsis Code (CSI) in Catalonia (Spain). The general objective of the CSI is to increase awareness, promote early detection and facilitate initial care and interhospital coordination to attend septic patients in a homogeneous manner throughout Catalonia.

Ischemic stroke is one of the leading causes of death and disability with an urgent need for innovative therapies, especially targeting the chronic phase. New evidence has emerged showing that Toll-Like Receptor 4 (TLR4), a key mediator of brain damage after stroke, may be involved in brain repair by neurogenesis modulation. The aim of this study is to analyze the role of TLR4 in the different stages of neurogenesis initiated in the subventricular zone (SVZ) over time after stroke in mice. Wildtype and TLR4-deficient mice underwent experimental ischemia, and neural stem/progenitor cells (NSPCs) proliferation and migration were analyzed by using FACS analysis, fluorescence densitometry, RT-qPCR and in vitro assays. Our results show that both groups, wildtype and knock-out animals, present a similar pattern of bilateral cell proliferation at the SVZ, with a decrease in NSPCs proliferation in the acute phase of stroke. We also show that TLR4 activation, very likely mediated by ligands such as HMGB1 released to CSF after stroke, is necessary to keep an increased proliferation of NSCs as well as to promote differentiation from type C cells into neuroblasts promoting their migration. TLR4 activation was also implicated in earlier expression of SDF-1α and faster recovery of BDNF expression after stroke. These results support TLR4 as an important therapeutic target in the modulation of neurogenesis after stroke.

Objective To describe patient's characteristics, the activity and patient's satisfaction with a multidisciplinary care unit in patients with psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis (PsA). Methods A retrospective medical records review of patients with psoriasis or PsA attended in a multidisciplinary care unit was performed. Included patients were contacted to fulfill a satisfaction questionnaire. A specific electronic database was set up. Data regarding to patients and their baseline characteristics and the activity of the unit were collected. Descriptive analysis were performed. Results A total of 112 patients with 154 visits were included in almost 3 years, 54% women, with a mean age of 51 years, 43.7% presented hyperlipidemia and 30.4% arterial hypertension. Half of patients were referred due to diagnostic doubts and the other half for therapeutic problems. After the evaluation of the patients, 66 patients (58.9%) met diagnostic criteria for PsA, and 13 (11.6%) of an inflammatory disease other than PsA, and 95% came back to their usual physician. The most ordered test were laboratory tests (75.6% of patients), followed by X-rays in 57 patients (51.3%). In general the number of patients with different treatments increased, and 55.4% and 42% of patients changed their topic and systemic treatments respectively. The level of satisfaction was very high and all of patients considered that their disease was better controlled in this multidisciplinary care unit. Conclusions This multidisciplinary care unit has improved the care and satisfaction of patients with psoriasis or PsA, and increased collaboration between rheumatology and dermatology departments.

Background: The frequency of late-onset Huntington's disease (>59 years) is assumed to be low and the clinical course milder. However, previous literature on late-onset disease is scarce and inconclusive. Objective: Our aim is to study clinical characteristics of late-onset compared to common-onset HD patients in a large cohort of HD patients from the Registry database. Methods: Participants with late- and common-onset (30–50 years)were compared for first clinical symptoms, disease progression, CAG repeat size and family history. Participants with a missing CAG repeat size, a repeat size of ≤35 or a UHDRS motor score of ≤5 were excluded. Results: Of 6007 eligible participants, 687 had late-onset (11.4%) and 3216 (53.5%) common-onset HD. Late-onset (n = 577) had significantly more gait and balance problems as first symptom compared to common-onset (n = 2408) (P

Non-adherence challenges efficacy and costs of healthcare. Knowledge of the underlying factors is essential to design effective intervention strategies.ObjectivesTo estimate the prevalence of treatment adherence in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and to evaluate its predictors.MethodsA 6-month prospective cohort study of patients with RA selected by systematic stratified sampling (33% on first disease-modifying rheumatic drug (DMARD), 33% on second-line DMARD and 33% on biologics). The outcome measure was treatment adherence, defined by a score greater than 80% both in the Compliance Questionnaire in Rheumatology and the Reported Adherence to Medication scale, and was estimated with 95% CIs. Predictive factors included sociodemographic, psychological, clinical, drug-related, patient–doctor relationship related and logistic. Their effect on 6-month adherence was examined by multilevel logistic models adjusted for baseline covariates.Results180 patients were recruited (77% women, mean age 60.8). The prevalence of adherence was 59.1% (95% CI 48.1% to 71.8%). Patients on biologics showed higher adherence and perceived a higher medication need than the others; patients on second-line DMARDs had experienced more adverse events than the others. The variables explaining adherence in the final multivariate model were the type of treatment prescribed (second-line DMARDs OR=5.22, and biologics OR=3.76), agreement on treatment (OR=4.57), having received information on treatment adaptation (OR=1.42) and the physician perception of patient trust (OR=1.58). These effects were independent of disease activity.ConclusionTreatment adherence in RA is far from complete. Psychological, communicational and logistic factors influence treatment adherence in RA to a greater extent than sociodemographic or clinical factors.

The objective of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of one-step nucleic acid amplification (OSNA) for the detection of sentinel lymph node (SLN) metastasis compared to standard pathological ultrastaging in patients with early-stage endometrial cancer (EC). A total of 526 SLNs from 191 patients with EC were included in the study. 379 SLNs (147 patients) were evaluated by both methods, OSNA and standard pathological ultrastaging. The central 1-mm portion of each lymph node was subjected to semi-serial sectioning at 200-μm intervals and examined by hematoxylin-eosin and immunohistochemistry with CK19; the remaining tissue was analysed by OSNA for CK19 mRNA. The OSNA assay detected metastases in 19.7% of patients (14.9% micrometastasis and 4.8% macrometastasis), whereas pathological ultrastaging detected metastasis in 8.8% of patients (3.4% micrometastasis and 5.4% macrometastasis). Using the established cut-off value for detecting SLN metastasis by OSNA in EC (250 copies/μl), the sensitivity of the OSNA assay was 92%; specificity was 82%; diagnostic accuracy was 83%, and the negative predictive value was 99%. Discordant results between both methods were recorded in 20 patients (13.6%). OSNA resulted in an upstaging in 12 patients (8.2%). OSNA could aid in the identification of patients requiring adjuvant treatment at the time of diagnosis.

Thrombolytic therapy with recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rt-PA) is currently the only FDA-approved drug for acute ischemic stroke. However, its administration is still limited due to the associated increased risk of hemorrhagic transformation (HT). rt-PA may exacerbate blood-brain barrier (BBB) injury by several mechanisms that have not been fully elucidated. Caveolin-1 (Cav-1), a major structural protein of caveolae, has been linked to the endothelial barrier function. The effects of rt-PA on Cav-1 expression remain largely unknown. Here, Cav-1 protein expression after ischemic conditions, with or without rt-PA administration, was analyzed in a murine thromboembolic middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) and in brain microvascular endothelial bEnd.3 cells subjected to oxygen/glucose deprivation (OGD). Our results show that Cav-1 is overexpressed in endothelial cells of infarcted area and in bEnd.3 cell line after ischemia but there is disagreement regarding rt-PA effects on Cav-1 expression between both experimental models. Delayed rt-PA administration significantly reduced Cav-1 total levels from 24 to 72 h after reoxygenation and increased pCav-1/Cav-1 at 72 h in the bEnd.3 cells while it did not modify Cav-1 immunoreactivity in the infarcted area at 24 h post-MCAO. Importantly, tissue Cav-1 positively correlated with Cav-1 serum levels at 24 h post-MCAO and negatively correlated with the volume of hemorrhage after infarction, the latter supporting a protective role of Cav-1 in cerebral ischemia. In addition, the negative association between baseline serum Cav-1 levels and hemorrhagic volume points to a potential usefulness of baseline serum Cav-1 levels to predict hemorrhagic volume, independently of rt-PA administration.

In this work we investigate the role of CHIP in a new CHIP-mutation related ataxia and the therapeutic potential of trehalose. The patient's fibroblasts with a new form of hereditary ataxia, related to STUB1 gene (CHIP) mutations, and three age and sex-matched controls were treated with epoxomicin and trehalose. The effects on cell death, protein misfolding and proteostasis were evaluated. Recent studies have revealed that mutations in STUB-1 gene lead to a growing list of molecular defects as deregulation of protein quality, inhibition of proteasome, cell death, decreased autophagy and alteration in CHIP and HSP70 levels. In this CHIP-mutant patient fibroblasts the inhibition of proteasome with epoxomicin induced severe pathophysiological age-associated changes, cell death and protein ubiquitination. Additionally, treatment with epoxomicin produced a dose-dependent increase in the number of cleaved caspase-3 positive cells. However, co-treatment with trehalose, a disaccharide of glucose present in a wide variety of organisms and known as a autophagy enhancer, reduced these pathological events. Trehalose application also increased CHIP and HSP70 expression and GSH free radical levels. Furthermore, trehalose augmented macro and chaperone mediated autophagy (CMA), rising the levels of LC3, LAMP2, CD63 and increasing the expression of Beclin-1 and Atg5-Atg12. Trehalose treatment in addition increased the percentage of immunoreactive cells to HSC70 and LAMP2 and reduced the autophagic substrate, p62. Although this is an individual case based on only one patient and the statistical comparisons are not valid between controls and patient, the low variability among controls and the obvious differences with this patient allow us to conclude that trehalose, through its autophagy activation capacity, anti-aggregation properties, anti-oxidative effects and lack of toxicity, could be very promising for the treatment of CHIP-mutation related ataxia, and possibly a wide spectrum of neurodegenerative disorders related to protein disconformation.

Background Huntington's disease is caused by a CAG repeat expansion in the huntingtin gene, HTT. Age at onset has been used as a quantitative phenotype in genetic analysis looking for Huntington's disease modifiers, but is hard to define and not always available. Therefore, we aimed to generate a novel measure of disease progression and to identify genetic markers associated with this progression measure. Methods We generated a progression score on the basis of principal component analysis of prospectively acquired longitudinal changes in motor, cognitive, and imaging measures in the 218 indivduals in the TRACK-HD cohort of Huntington's disease gene mutation carriers (data collected 2008–11). We generated a parallel progression score using data from 1773 previously genotyped participants from the European Huntington's Disease Network REGISTRY study of Huntington's disease mutation carriers (data collected 2003–13). We did a genome-wide association analyses in terms of progression for 216 TRACK-HD participants and 1773 REGISTRY participants, then a meta-analysis of these results was undertaken. Findings Longitudinal motor, cognitive, and imaging scores were correlated with each other in TRACK-HD participants, justifying use of a single, cross-domain measure of disease progression in both studies. The TRACK-HD and REGISTRY progression measures were correlated with each other (r=0·674), and with age at onset (TRACK-HD, r=0·315; REGISTRY, r=0·234). The meta-analysis of progression in TRACK-HD and REGISTRY gave a genome-wide significant signal (p=1·12 × 10−10) on chromosome 5 spanning three genes: MSH3, DHFR, and MTRNR2L2. The genes in this locus were associated with progression in TRACK-HD (MSH3 p=2·94 × 10−8 DHFR p=8·37 × 10−7 MTRNR2L2 p=2·15 × 10−9) and to a lesser extent in REGISTRY (MSH3 p=9·36 × 10−4 DHFR p=8·45 × 10−4 MTRNR2L2 p=1·20 × 10−3). The lead single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in TRACK-HD (rs557874766) was genome-wide significant in the meta-analysis (p=1·58 × 10−8), and encodes an aminoacid change (Pro67Ala) in MSH3. In TRACK-HD, each copy of the minor allele at this SNP was associated with a 0·4 units per year (95% CI 0·16–0·66) reduction in the rate of change of the Unified Huntington's Disease Rating Scale (UHDRS) Total Motor Score, and a reduction of 0·12 units per year (95% CI 0·06–0·18) in the rate of change of UHDRS Total Functional Capacity score. These associations remained significant after adjusting for age of onset. Interpretation The multidomain progression measure in TRACK-HD was associated with a functional variant that was genome-wide significant in our meta-analysis. The association in only 216 participants implies that the progression measure is a sensitive reflection of disease burden, that the effect size at this locus is large, or both. Knockout of Msh3 reduces somatic expansion in Huntington's disease mouse models, suggesting this mechanism as an area for future therapeutic investigation.

16 p.-4 fig., Low-grade, early-stage endometrial carcinoma (EC) is the most frequent malignant tumor of the uterine corpus. However, the molecular alterations that underlie these tumors are far from being fully understood. The purpose of this study is to describe dysregulated molecular pathways from EC patients. Sixteen samples of tumor tissue and paired healthy controls were collected and both were subjected to mass spectrometry (MS)/MS proteomic analysis. Gene ontology and pathway analysis was performed to discover dysregulated pathways and/or proteins using different databases and bioinformatic tools. Dysregulated pathways were cross-validated in an independent external cohort. Cell signaling, immune response, and cell death-associated pathways were robustly identified. The SLIT/ROBO signaling pathway demonstrated dysregulation at the proteomic and transcriptomic level. Necroptosis and ferroptosis were cell death-associated processes aberrantly regulated, in addition to apoptosis. Immune response-associated pathways showed a dominance of innate immune responses. Tumor immune infiltrates measured by immunofluorescence demonstrated diverse lymphoid and myeloid populations. Our results suggest a role of SLIT/ROBO, necroptosis, and ferroptosis, as well as a prominent role of innate immune response in low-grade, early-stage EC. These results could guide future research in this group of tumors, This research was funded by the Instituto de Salud Carlos III (ISCIII) (PI17/01723), co-financed by the European Development Regional Fund “A way to achieve Europe” (FEDER).

MPOC; Disfunció muscular; Coronavirus SARS-CoV-2; COVID-19; 2019-nCoV EPOC; Disfunción muscular; Coronavirus SARS-CoV-2; COVID-19; 2019-nCoV COPD; Muscular dysfunction; Coronavirus SARS-CoV-2; COVID-19; 2019-nCoV Background There is limited information about the impact of coronavirus disease (COVID-19) on the muscular dysfunction, despite the generalized weakness and fatigue that patients report after overcoming the acute phase of the infection. This study aimed to detect impaired muscle efficiency by evaluating delta efficiency (DE) in patients with COVID-19 compared with subjects with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), ischaemic heart disease (IHD), and control group (CG). Methods A total of 60 participants were assigned to four experimental groups: COVID-19, COPD, IHD, and CG (n = 15 each group). Incremental exercise tests in a cycle ergometer were performed to obtain peak oxygen uptake (VO2peak). DE was obtained from the end of the first workload to the power output where the respiratory exchange ratio was 1. Results A lower DE was detected in patients with COVID-19 and COPD compared with those in CG (P ≤ 0.033). However, no significant differences were observed among the experimental groups with diseases (P > 0.05). Lower VO2peak, peak ventilation, peak power output, and total exercise time were observed in the groups with diseases than in the CG (P < 0.05). A higher VO2, ventilation, and power output were detected in the CG compared with those in the groups with diseases at the first and second ventilatory threshold (P < 0.05). A higher power output was detected in the IHD group compared with those in the COVID-19 and COPD groups (P < 0.05) at the first and second ventilatory thresholds and when the respiratory exchange ratio was 1. A significant correlation (P < 0.001) was found between the VO2peak and DE and between the peak power output and DE (P < 0.001). Conclusions Patients with COVID-19 showed marked mechanical inefficiency similar to that observed in COPD and IHD patients. Patients with COVID-19 and COPD showed a significant decrease in power output compared to IHD during pedalling despite having similar response in VO2 at each intensity. Resistance training should be considered during the early phase of rehabilitation.

Background: Patients with lung cancer (LC) are at significantly higher risk of developing venous thromboembolism (VTE), which may lead to increased use of health resources and the cost of management. The main aim of the study was to determine the cost of the management of VTE events in patients with LC treated with Low Molecular Weight Heparins (LMWH) in Spain. Methods: Costecat was an, observational, ambispective pharmacoeconomic study. Patients with LC, with a first episode of VTE (symptomatic or incidental) in treatment with LMWH, were recruited from six third-level hospitals and followed up for six months. Sociodemographic, clinical and resource use variables of VTE-related implications and its treatment were collected. Direct healthcare costs and direct non-healthcare costs were recorded. Data collection was documented in an electronic case report. Unit costs were obtained from national databases. Costs (&euro, 2018) were estimated from the healthcare perspective. Statistical analysis was performed using the statistical program R 3.4.3 version (30 November 2017). Results: Forty-seven patients were included. Mean age was 65.4 years, 66.0% were male. The percentage of patients with LC who had metastatic disease was 78.7%. Twenty-three patients (48.9%) needed hospital admissions due to thromboembolic episode. Total average cost of patients with cancer associated VTE (CAT) was &euro, 109,696.6 per patient/semester. The hospitalizations represent 65.8% of total costs (7207.3 &euro, SD 13,996.9 &euro, ), followed by LMWH therapy which represents 18.6% (2033.8 &euro, SD:630.5 &euro, ). Conclusions: Venous thromboembolism episodes induce an economic impact on patients and healthcare systems. Direct healthcare costs are the major burden of the total cost, in which hospitalizations are the main drivers of cost.

12 p.-4 fig.-4 tab., Rationale & objective: A previous study that evaluated associations of kidney biopsy findings with disease progression in patients with C3 glomerulopathy (C3G) proposed a prognostic histologic index (C3G-HI) that has not yet been validated. Our objective was to validate the performance of the C3G-HI in a new patient population., Study design: Multicenter, retrospective cohort study., Setting & participants: 111 patients fulfilling diagnostic criteria of C3G between January 1995 and December 2019, from 33 nephrology departments belonging to the Spanish Group for the Study of Glomerular Diseases (GLOSEN)., Predictors: Demographic, clinical parameters, C3G-HI total activity score, and the C3G-HI total chronicity score., Outcome: Time to kidney failure., Analytical approach: Intraclass correlation coefficients and κ statistic were used to summarize inter-rater reproducibility for assessment of histopathology in kidney biopsies. The nonlinear relationships of risk of kidney failure with the total activity score and total chronicity score were modeled using Cox proportional hazards analysis that incorporated cubic splines., Results: The study group included 93 patients with C3 glomerulonephritis and 18 with dense-deposit disease. Participants had an overall meanage of 35±22 (SD) years. Forty-eight patients (43%) developed kidney failure after a mean follow-up of 65±27 months. The overall inter-rater reproducibility was very good for the total activity score (intraclass correlation coefficient [ICC]=0.63) and excellent for total chronicity score (ICC=0.89). Baseline estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), 24-hour proteinuria, and treatment with immunosuppression were the main determinants of kidney failure in a model with only clinical variables. Only tubular atrophy and interstitial fibrosis were identified as predictors in a model with histological variables. When the total activity score and total chronicity score were added to the model, only the latter was identified as an independent predictor of kidney failure., Limitations: Only a subset of the kidney biopsies was centrally reviewed. Residual confounding., Conclusions: We validated the performance of C3G-HI as a predictor of kidney failure in patients with C3G. The total chronicity score was the principal histologic correlate of kidney failure., Work in this study was supported by the Instituto de Salud Carlos III /Fondo Europeo de Desarrollo Regional (ISCIII/FEDER) grant PI16/01685 and Red de Investigación Renal (RedInRen) (RD12/0021/0029) (to MP), the Autonomous Region of Madrid (S2017/BMD-3673) (to MP); EGdeJ is supported by the Spanish “Ministerio de Ciencia, Innovación y Universidades" (RYC-2013-13395 and RTI2018-095955-B-100).

Next-Generation Sequencing has recently been introduced to efficiently and simultaneously detect genetic variations in acute myeloid leukemia. However, its implementation in the clinical routine raises new challenges focused on the diversity of assays and variant reporting criteria. To overcome this challenge, the PETHEMA group established a nationwide network of reference laboratories aimed to deliver molecular results in the clinics. We report the technical cross-validation results for next-generation sequencing panel genes during the standardization process and the clinical validation in 823 samples of 751 patients with newly diagnosed or refractory/relapse acute myeloid leukemia. Two cross-validation rounds were performed in seven nationwide reference laboratories in order to reach a consensus regarding quality metrics criteria and variant reporting. In the pre-standardization cross-validation round, an overall concordance of 60.98% was obtained with a great variability in selected genes and conditions across laboratories. After consensus of relevant genes and optimization of quality parameters the overall concordance rose to 85.57% in the second cross-validation round. We show that a diagnostic network with harmonized next-generation sequencing analysis and reporting in seven experienced laboratories is feasible in the context of a scientific group. This cooperative nationwide strategy provides advanced molecular diagnostic for acute myeloid leukemia patients of the PETHEMA group.

Germinal centers (GCs) are complex multicellular structures in which antigen-specific B cells undergo the molecular remodeling that enables the generation of high-affinity antibodies and the differentiation programs that lead to the generation of plasma-antibody-secreting cells and memory B cells. These reactions are tightly controlled by a variety of mechanisms, including the post-transcriptional control of gene expression by microRNAs (miRNAs). Through the development of animal models with B cell-specific modified miRNA expression, we have contributed to the understanding of the role of miRNAs in the regulation of GC responses and in B cell neoplasia. Here, we review recent advances in the understanding of the role of miRNAs in the regulation of B cell and T follicular helper physiology during the GC response and in the diseases associated to GC response dysregulation.

Background: Although the impact of uveitis on people's lives is clear, the frequency of this condition is unclear.Objective: To estimate the prevalence and incidence of uveitis. Methods: A systematic review with meta-analysis was conducted. Medline, Embase, and Cochrane Library were searched from inception to January 2019. The quality of the included studies was critically appraised with a grading system based on the Oxford Levels of Evidence. A detailed description of the populations studied and of factors affecting estimates was undertaken. Pooled analyses were conducted using a random-effects approach and expressed as incidence rates per 100,000 with 95% confidence intervals. Subgroup analyses by geographical region were conducted along with meta-regression to analyze possible factors for heterogeneity. Results: A total of 49 studies were included and critically appraised. Twenty-two were population-based, and 27 hospital-based. Heterogeneity was substantial in terms of populations studied, methods for ascertaining uveitis, including definitions, and reporting of results. This was especially important in prevalence studies, with data ranging from 9 to 730 cases per 100,000. For incidence studies, the meta-analysis yielded a pooled incidence of 50.45 per 100.000. The meta-regression showed the geographic region as an important explanatory factor of the heterogeneity between studies. Conclusion: Population-based estimates of the epidemiology of uveitis vary widely, owing to methodologies employed, definitions of uveitis and geographical regions; the representativeness and generalizability of many epidemiological studies of uveitis are limited.

Low-grade and early-stage endometrioid endometrial carcinomas (EECs) have an overall good prognosis but biomarkers identifying patients at risk of relapse are still lacking. Recently, CTNNB1 exon 3 mutation has been identified as a potential risk factor of recurrence in these patients. We evaluate the prognostic value of CTNNB1 mutation in a single-centre cohort of 218 low-grade, early-stage EECs, and the correlation with beta-catenin and LEF1 immunohistochemistry as candidate surrogate markers. CTNNB1 exon 3 hotspot mutations were evaluated by Sanger sequencing. Immunohistochemical staining of mismatch repair proteins (MLH1, PMS2, MSH2, and MSH6), p53, beta-catenin, and LEF1 was performed in representative tissue microarrays. Tumours were also reviewed for mucinous and squamous differentiation, and MELF pattern. Nineteen (8.7%) tumours harboured a mutation in CTNNB1 exon 3. Nuclear beta-catenin and LEF1 were significantly associated with CTNNB1 mutation, showing nuclear beta-catenin a better specificity and positive predictive value for CTNNB1 mutation. Tumours with CTNNB1 exon 3 mutation were associated with reduced disease-free survival (p = 0.010), but no impact on overall survival was found (p = 0.807). The risk of relapse in tumours with CTNNB1 exon 3 mutation was independent of FIGO stage, tumour grade, mismatch repair protein expression, or the presence of lymphovascular space invasion. CTNNB1 exon 3 mutation has a negative impact on disease-free survival in low-grade, early-stage EECs. Nuclear beta-catenin shows a higher positive predictive value than LEF1 for CTNNB1 exon 3 mutation in these tumours, This research was funded by the Instituto de Salud Carlos III (ISCIII) (PI17/01723), co-financed by the European Development Regional Fund ‘A way to achieve Europe’ (FEDER)

The objective of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of one-step nucleic acid amplification (OSNA) for the detection of sentinel lymph node (SLN) metastasis compared to standard pathological ultrastaging in patients with early-stage endometrial cancer (EC). A total of 526 SLNs from 191 patients with EC were included in the study, and 379 SLNs (147 patients) were evaluated by both methods, OSNA and standard pathological ultrastaging. The central 1 mm portion of each lymph node was subjected to semi-serial sectioning at 200 μm intervals and examined by hematoxylin–eosin and immunohistochemistry with CK19; the remaining tissue was analyzed by OSNA for CK19 mRNA. The OSNA assay detected metastases in 19.7% of patients (14.9% micrometastasis and 4.8% macrometastasis), whereas pathological ultrastaging detected metastasis in 8.8% of patients (3.4% micrometastasis and 5.4% macrometastasis). Using the established cut-off value for detecting SLN metastasis by OSNA in EC (250 copies/μL), the sensitivity of the OSNA assay was 92%, specificity was 82%, diagnostic accuracy was 83%, and the negative predictive value was 99%. Discordant results between both methods were recorded in 20 patients (13.6%). OSNA resulted in an upstaging in 12 patients (8.2%). OSNA could aid in the identification of patients requiring adjuvant treatment at the time of diagnosis., El objetivo de este estudio fue evaluar la eficacia de la amplificación de ácido nucleico en un solo paso (OSNA) para la detección de metástasis en el ganglio linfático centinela (GC) en comparación con la ultraestadificación patológica estándar en pacientes con cáncer de endometrio (CE) en estadio temprano. Se incluyeron en el estudio un total de 526 SLN de 191 pacientes con EC, y 379 SLN (147 pacientes) fueron evaluados por ambos métodos, OSNA y ultraestadificación patológica estándar. La porción central de 1 mm de cada ganglio linfático se sometió a un seccionamiento semiserie a intervalos de 200 μm y se examinó mediante hematoxilina-eosina e inmunohistoquímica con CK19; el tejido restante fue analizado por OSNA para ARNm de CK19. El ensayo OSNA detectó metástasis en el 19,7 % de los pacientes (14,9 % micrometástasis y 4,8 % macrometástasis), mientras que la ultraestadificación patológica detectó metástasis en el 8,8 % de los pacientes (3. 4% micrometástasis y 5,4% macrometástasis). Usando el valor de corte establecido para detectar metástasis SLN por OSNA en EC (250 copias/μL), la sensibilidad del ensayo OSNA fue del 92 %, la especificidad fue del 82 %, la precisión diagnóstica fue del 83 % y el valor predictivo negativo fue del 99 % Se registraron resultados discordantes entre ambos métodos en 20 pacientes (13,6%). OSNA resultó en una sobreestadificación en 12 pacientes (8,2%). OSNA podría ayudar en la identificación de pacientes que requieren tratamiento adyuvante en el momento del diagnóstico. Se registraron resultados discordantes entre ambos métodos en 20 pacientes (13,6%). OSNA resultó en una sobreestadificación en 12 pacientes (8,2%).

Medicine ,Science - Abstract
Huntington's disease is a neurodegenerative disorder caused by an expansion of CAG repeats in the huntingtin gene which produces widespread neuronal and glial pathology. We here investigated the possible therapeutic role of glia or glial products in Huntington's disease using striatal glial conditioned medium (GCM) from fetus mice (E16) continuously infused for 15 and 30 days with osmotic minipumps into the left striatum of R6/1 mice. Animals infused with GCM had significantly less huntingtin inclusions in the ipsilateral cerebral cortex and in the ipsilateral and contralateral striata than mice infused with cerebrospinal fluid. The numbers of DARPP-32 and TH positive neurons were also greater in the ipsilateral but not contralateral striata and substantia nigra, respectively, suggesting a neuroprotective effect of GCM on efferent striatal and nigro-striatal dopamine neurons. GCM increases activity of the autophagic pathway, as shown by the reduction of autophagic substrate, p-62, and the augmentation of LC3 II, Beclin-1 and LAMP-2 protein levels, direct markers of autophagy, in GCM infused mice. GCM also increases BDNF levels. These results suggest that CGM should be further explored as a putative neuroprotective agent in Huntington's disease.

Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) accounts for 15-20% of all breast carcinomas and it is clinically characterized by an aggressive phenotype and bad prognosis. TNBC does not benefit from any targeted therapy, so further characterization is needed to define subgroups with potential therapeutic value. In this work, the proteomes of one hundred twenty-five formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded samples from patients diagnosed with triple negative breast cancer were analyzed by mass spectrometry using data-independent acquisition. Hierarchical clustering, probabilistic graphical models and Significance Analysis of Microarrays were used to characterize molecular groups. Additionally, a predictive signature related with relapse was defined. Two molecular groups with differences in several biological processes as glycolysis, translation and immune response, were defined in this cohort, and a prognostic signature based on the abundance of proteins RBM3 and NIPSNAP1 was defined. This predictor split the population into low-risk and high-risk groups. The differential processes identified between the two molecular groups may serve to design new therapeutic strategies in the future and the prognostic signature could be useful to identify a population at high-risk of relapse that could be directed to clinical trials.

Background: There is a lack of tools to holistically quantify the response to monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) in severe uncontrolled asthma (SUA) patients. The aim of this study was to develop a valid score to assist specialists in this clinical context. Methods: The score was developed in 4 subsequent phases: (1) elaboration of the theoretical model of the construct intended to be measured (response to mAbs); (2) definition and selection of items and measurement instruments by Delphi survey; (3) weight assignment of the selected items by multicriteria decision analysis (MCDA) using the Potentially All Pairwise RanKings of all possible Alternatives (PAPRIKA) methodology via the 1000Minds software; and (4) face validity assessment of the obtained score. Results: Four core items, with different levels of response for each of them, were selected: “severe exacerbations”, “oral corticosteroid use”, “symptoms” (evaluated by Asthma Control Test: ACT) and “bronchial obstruction” (assessed by FEV1 % theoretical). “Severe exacerbations” and “oral corticosteroid maintenance dose” were weighted most heavily (38% each), followed by “symptoms” (13%) and “FEV1” (11%). Higher scores in the weighted system indicate better response and the range of responses runs from 0 (worsening) to 100 (best possible response). Face validity was high (intraclass correlation coefficient: 0.86). Conclusions: The FEOS score (FEV1, Exacerbations, Oral corticosteroids, Symptoms) allows clinicians to quantify response in SUA patients who are being treated with mAbs.

PURPOSE The study's aim was to assess whether polyomavirus DNAemia screening was associated with different outcomes in patients with positive viremia compared with negative viremia. METHODS Case-control retrospective study of patients with polyomavirus DNAemia (viremia > 1000 copies/mL) matched 1:1 with controls. Control group consists of the patient who received a transplant immediately before or after each identified case and did have nil viremia. FINDING Ultimately, 120 cases of BK polyomavirus (BKPyV) were detected and matched with 130 controls. Of these, 54 were adult kidney transplant recipients (KTRs), 43 were pediatric KTRs, and 23 were undergoing hemato-oncologic therapy, of which 20 were undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. The odds ratio (OR) for overall risk of poorer outcomes in cases versus controls was 16.07 (95% CI: 5.55-46.54). The unfavorable outcome of switching the immunosuppressive drug (ISD) (14/40,35%) was no different from that of those treated with reduced ISD doses (31/71, 43.6%, P = .250). Acute rejection or graft-versus-host disease, previous transplant, and intensity of immunosuppression (4 ISDs plus induction or conditioning) were risk factors for BKPyV-DNAemia (OR: 13.96, 95% CI: 11.25-15.18, P

As a person ages, total body water (TBW), intracellular water (ICW), muscle mass and muscle strength tend to decline. The decline in ICW may reflect losses in the number of muscle cells but may also be responsible for less hydrated muscle cells. To assess whether TBW and ICW are associated with muscle strength, functional performance and frailty in an aged population, independently of muscle mass. An observational cross-sectional study of community-dwelling individuals aged 75 years and older. TBW, ICW, fat mass, lean mass and muscle mass were assessed by bioelectrical impedance analysis, frailty status was measured according to Fried criteria, handgrip strength was measured using the hand-held JAMAR dynamometer, and functional performance was measured according to the Barthel index and gait speed. A total of 324 subjects were recruited (mean age 80.1 years, 47.5% women). TBW and ICW were closely correlated with muscle mass in both sexes. ICW was also associated with Barthel score, gait speed and frailty in both sexes and with handgrip in men. Considerable variability in ICW was observed for the same muscle mass. Multivariate analysis showed a positive effect of ICW on handgrip, functional performance and gait speed and a protective effect of ICW on frailty, independently of age, sex, body mass index and number of comorbidities. In elderly individuals with similar muscle mass, those with higher ICW had a better functional performance and a lower frailty risk, suggesting a protective effect of cell hydration, independently of muscle mass.

Programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-L1) expression by tumor cells plays an important role in the inhibition of T cell-mediated immune response in cancer. PD-L1 expression by tumor cells has been linked to poor prognosis in a wide variety of cancers. However, PD-L1 expression in cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cSCC) has been scarcely studied, and its role as a prognosis biomarker remains controversial. The association of PD-L1 expression and the metastatic risk in a series of cSCC was assessed. PD-L1 and CD8 immunostainings of full excision sections of 99 primary tumors and 24 lymphatic metastases were semiquantitatively evaluated. Primary cSCCs were grouped according to the development of lymphatic metastatic spread [metastasizing squamous cell carcinoma (MSCC)] (n = 48) or the absence of progression [nonmetastasizing squamous cell carcinoma (NMSCC)] (n = 51). PD-L1-positive expression (cut off ≥1%) was found in 26% NMSCCs and in 50% MSCCs (P = 0.02). PD-L1 association with an increased metastatic risk was confirmed in the multivariate analysis (P0.05), along with the following features: recurrence, poor differentiation, and perineural invasion. Ninety percent of the metastases of PD-L1-positive tumors were also positive for PD-L1, displaying a trend toward a higher PD-L1 expression when compared with their primary tumors (P = 0.058). No significant differences in the peritumoral inflammatory infiltrate or in the expression of CD8 were found between metastasizing and nonmetastasizing primary tumors. Our results suggest that PD-L1 may play a relevant role in metastatic spread and may be a candidate prognostic biomarker in cSCC.

Background/aim Predicting response to treatment in high-grade serous ovarian carcinoma (HGSOC) still remains a clinical challenge. The standard-of-care for first-line chemotherapy, based on a combination of carboplatin and paclitaxel, achieves a high response rate. However, the development of drug resistance is one of the major limitations to efficacy. Therefore, identification of biomarkers able to predict response to chemotherapy in patients with HGSOC is a critical step for prognosis and treatment of the disease. Several studies suggest that angiogenesis is an important process in the development of ovarian carcinoma and chemoresistance. The aim of this study was to identify a profile of angiogenesis-related genes as a biomarker for response to first-line chemotherapy in HGSOC. Materials and methods Formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded samples from 39 patients with HGSOC who underwent surgical cytoreduction and received a first-line chemotherapy with carboplatin and paclitaxel were included in this study. Expression levels of 82 angiogenesis-related genes were measured by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction using TaqMan low-density arrays. Results Univariate analysis identified five genes [angiopoietin 1 (ANGPT1), aryl hydrocarbon receptor nuclear translocator (ARNT), CD34, epidermal growth factor (EGF) and matrix metallopeptidase 3 (MMP3)] as being statistically associated with response to treatment. Multivariable analysis by Lasso-penalized Cox regression generated a model with the combined expression of seven genes [angiotensinogen (AGT), CD34, EGF, erythropoietin receptor (EPOR), interleukin 8 (IL8), MMP3 and MMP7)]. The area under the receiver operating characteristics curve (0.679) and cross-validated Kaplan-Meier survival curves were used to estimate the accuracy of these predictors. Conclusion An angiogenesis-related gene expression profile useful for response prediction in HGSOC was identified, supporting the important role of angiogenesis in HGSOC.
