Abstract: A search for muon neutrinos from dark matter annihilations in the Galactic Center region has been performed with the 40-string configuration of the IceCube Neutrino Observatory using data collected in 367 days of live-time starting in April 2008. The observed fluxes were consistent with the atmospheric background expectations. Upper limits on the self-annihilation cross-section are obtained for dark matter particle masses ranging from 100 GeV to 10 TeV. In the case of decaying dark matter, lower limits on the lifetime have been determined for masses between 200 GeV and 20 TeV., 11 pages, 13 figures. An error in the limit calculation code has been corrected, which lead to too constraining limits. This error impacted figures 9, 10, 11, 12 and 13

Abstract: SN 2008D, a core collapse supernova at a distance of 27 Mpc, was serendipitously discovered by the Swift satellite through an associated X-ray flash. Core collapse supernovae have been observed in association with long gamma-ray bursts and X-ray flashes and a physical connection is widely assumed. This connection could imply that some core collapse supernovae possess mildly relativistic jets in which high-energy neutrinos are produced through proton-proton collisions. The predicted neutrino spectra would be detectable by Cherenkov neutrino detectors like IceCube. A search for a neutrino signal in temporal and spatial correlation with the observed X-ray flash of SN 2008D was conducted using data taken in 2007-2008 with 22 strings of the IceCube detector. Events were selected based on a boosted decision tree classifier trained with simulated signal and experimental background data. The classifier was optimized to the position and a "soft jet" neutrino spectrum assumed for SN 2008D. Using three search windows placed around the X-ray peak, emission time scales from 100 - 10000 s were probed. No events passing the cuts were observed in agreement with the signal expectation of 0.13 events. Upper limits on the muon neutrino flux from core collapse supernovae were derived for different emission time scales and the principal model parameters were constrained., Astronomy & Astrophysics ; Volume 527, A28

Abstract: This paper describes the response of the IceCube neutrino telescope located at the geographic south pole to outbursts of MeV neutrinos from the core collapse of nearby massive stars. IceCube was completed in December 2010 forming a lattice of 5160 photomultiplier tubes that monitor a volume of ∼1 km3 in the deep Antarctic ice for particle induced photons. The telescope was designed to detect neutrinos with energies greater than 100 GeV. Owing to subfreezing ice temperatures, the photomultiplier dark noise rates are particularly low. Hence IceCube can also detect large numbers of MeV neutrinos by observing a collective rise in all photomultiplier rates on top of the dark noise. With 2 ms timing resolution, IceCube can detect subtle features in the temporal development of the supernova neutrino burst. For a supernova at the galactic center, its sensitivity matches that of a background-free megaton-scale supernova search experiment. The sensitivity decreases to 20 standard deviations at the galactic edge (30 kpc) and 6 standard deviations at the Large Magellanic Cloud (50 kpc). IceCube is sending triggers from potential supernovae to the Supernova Early Warning System. The sensitivity to neutrino properties such as the neutrino hierarchy is discussed, as well as the possibility to detect the neutronization burst, a short outbreak of νe ’s released by electron capture on protons soon after collapse. Tantalizing signatures, such as the formation of a quark star or a black hole as well as the characteristics of shock waves, are investigated to illustrate IceCube’s capability for supernova detection., Astronomy and Astrophysics ; Volume 535, November 2011

Subjects: Risk Factors, Humans, Dementia, Parkinson Disease, Neuropsychological Tests
Abstract: Aside from limb tremor, bradykinesia, rigidity and gait disturbances, Parkinson's disease (PD) is also characterized by non-motor symptoms. A cognitive decline can occur early in the disease course and undoubtedly impact of the patient's quality of life. Dementia affects 80% of patients 20 years after disease onset but a small subgroup of patients remain free of dementia even after decades with PD. Risk factors and diagnosis of dementia can be easily assessed using bed-side clinical instruments. Advances in genetics and imagery will allow improving the diagnosis and therapeutic strategy dementia in Parkinson's disease.

Abstract: Physical review / D 87(6), 062002 (2013). doi:10.1103/PhysRevD.87.062002, Gamma-ray induced air showers are notable for their lack of muons, compared to hadronic showers. Hence, air shower arrays with large underground muon detectors can select a sample greatly enriched in photon showers by rejecting showers containing muons. IceCube is sensitive to muons with energies above ∼500 GeV at the surface, which provides an efficient veto system for hadronic air showers with energies above 1 PeV. One year of data from the 40-string IceCube configuration was used to perform a search for point sources and a Galactic diffuse signal. No sources were found, resulting in a 90% C.L. upper limit on the ratio of gamma rays to cosmic rays of 1.2×10−3 for the flux coming from the Galactic plane region (−80°≲l≲−30°; −10°≲b≲5°) in the energy range 1.2–6.0 PeV. In the same energy range, point source fluxes with E−2 spectra have been excluded at a level of (E/TeV)2dΦ/dE∼10−12–10−11 cm−2 s−1 TeV−1 depending on source declination. The complete IceCube detector will have a better sensitivity (due to the larger detector size), improved reconstruction, and vetoing techniques. Preliminary data from the nearly final IceCube detector configuration have been used to estimate the 5-yr sensitivity of the full detector. It is found to be more than an order of magnitude better, allowing the search for PeV extensions of known TeV gamma-ray emitters., Published by Soc., [S.l.]

Abstract: Physical review letters 110(15), 151105 (2013). doi:10.1103/PhysRevLett.110.151105, We report the first measurement of the atmospheric electron neutrino flux in the energy range between approximately 80 GeV and 6 TeV, using data recorded during the first year of operation of IceCube’s DeepCore low-energy extension. Techniques to identify neutrinos interacting within the DeepCore volume and veto muons originating outside the detector are demonstrated. A sample of 1029 events is observed in 281 days of data, of which 496±66(stat)±88(syst) are estimated to be cascade events, including both electron neutrino and neutral current events. The rest of the sample includes residual backgrounds due to atmospheric muons and charged current interactions of atmospheric muon neutrinos. The flux of the atmospheric electron neutrinos is consistent with models of atmospheric neutrinos in this energy range. This constitutes the first observation of electron neutrinos and neutral current interactions in a very large volume neutrino telescope optimized for the TeV energy range, Published by APS, College Park, Md.

Abstract: The AMANDA-II detector, operating since 2000 in the deep ice at the geographic South Pole, has accumulated a large sample of atmospheric muon neutrinos in the 100 GeV to 10 TeV energy range. The zenith angle and energy distribution of these events can be used to search for various phenomenological signatures of quantum gravity in the neutrino sector, such as violation of Lorentz invariance (VLI) or quantum decoherence (QD). Analyzing a set of 5511 candidate neutrino events collected during 1387 days of livetime from 2000 to 2006, we find no evidence for such effects and set upper limits on VLI and QD parameters using a maximum likelihood method. Given the absence of evidence for new flavor-changing physics, we use the same methodology to determine the conventional atmospheric muon neutrino flux above 100 GeV.

Abstract: Physical review letters 111(8), 081801 (2013). doi:10.1103/PhysRevLett.111.081801, We present the first statistically significant detection of neutrino oscillations in the high-energy regime (>20 GeV) from an analysis of IceCube Neutrino Observatory data collected in 2010 and 2011. This measurement is made possible by the low-energy threshold of the DeepCore detector (∼20 GeV) and benefits from the use of the IceCube detector as a veto against cosmic-ray-induced muon background. The oscillation signal was detected within a low-energy muon neutrino sample (20–100 GeV) extracted from data collected by DeepCore. A high-energy muon neutrino sample (100 GeV–10 TeV) was extracted from IceCube data to constrain systematic uncertainties. The disappearance of low-energy upward-going muon neutrinos was observed, and the nonoscillation hypothesis is rejected with more than 5σ significance. In a two-neutrino flavor formalism, our data are best described by the atmospheric neutrino oscillation parameters |Δm232|=(2.3+0.6−0.5)×10−3 eV2 and sin2(2θ23)>0.93, and maximum mixing is favored., Published by APS, College Park, Md.

Abstract: The astrophysical journal 779(2), 132 (2013). doi:10.1088/0004-637X/779/2/132, We present the results of a search for neutrino point sources using the IceCube data collected between 2008 April and 2011 May with three partially completed configurations of the detector: the 40-, 59-, and 79-string configurations. The live-time of this data set is 1040 days. An unbinned maximum likelihood ratio test was used to search for an excess of neutrinos above the atmospheric background at any given direction in the sky. By adding two more years of data with improved event selection and reconstruction techniques, the sensitivity was improved by a factor of 3.5 or more with respect to the previously published results obtained with the 40-string configuration of IceCube. We performed an all-sky survey and a dedicated search using a catalog of a priori selected objects observed by other telescopes. In both searches, the data are compatible with the background-only hypothesis. In the absence of evidence for a signal, we set upper limits on the flux of muon neutrinos. For an E –2 neutrino spectrum, the observed limits are (0.9-5) × 10–12 TeV–1 cm–2 s–1 for energies between 1 TeV and 1 PeV in the northern sky and (0.9-23.2) × 10–12 TeV–1 cm–2 s–1 for energies between 102 TeV and 102 PeV in the southern sky. We also report upper limits for neutrino emission from groups of sources that were selected according to theoretical models or observational parameters and analyzed with a stacking approach. Some of the limits presented already reach the level necessary to quantitatively test current models of neutrino emission., Published by Univ.11032, Chicago, Ill. [u.a.]

Abstract: Physical review letters 111(2), 021103 (2013). doi:10.1103/PhysRevLett.111.021103, We report on the observation of two neutrino-induced events which have an estimated deposited energy in the IceCube detector of 1.04±0.16 and 1.14±0.17 PeV, respectively, the highest neutrino energies observed so far. These events are consistent with fully contained particle showers induced by neutral-current νe,μ,τ (ν¯e,μ,τ) or charged-current νe (ν¯e) interactions within the IceCube detector. The events were discovered in a search for ultrahigh energy neutrinos using data corresponding to 615.9 days effective live time. The expected number of atmospheric background is 0.082±0.004(stat)+0.041−0.057(syst). The probability of observing two or more candidate events under the atmospheric background-only hypothesis is 2.9×10−3 (2.8σ) taking into account the uncertainty on the expected number of background events. These two events could be a first indication of an astrophysical neutrino flux; the moderate significance, however, does not permit a definitive conclusion at this time., Published by APS, College Park, Md.

Abstract: Physical review letters 110(13), 131302 (2013). doi:10.1103/PhysRevLett.110.131302, We have performed a search for muon neutrinos from dark matter annihilation in the center of the Sun with the 79-string configuration of the IceCube neutrino telescope. For the first time, the DeepCore subarray is included in the analysis, lowering the energy threshold and extending the search to the austral summer. The 317 days of data collected between June 2010 and May 2011 are consistent with the expected background from atmospheric muons and neutrinos. Upper limits are set on the dark matter annihilation rate, with conversions to limits on spin-dependent and spin-independent scattering cross sections of weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs) on protons, for WIMP masses in the range 20–5000 GeV/c2. These are the most stringent spin-dependent WIMP-proton cross section limits to date above 35 GeV/c2 for most WIMP models., Published by APS, College Park, Md.

Abstract: We report the first measurement of the atmospheric electron neutrino flux in the energy range between approximately 80 GeV and 6 TeV, using data recorded during the first year of operation of IceCube's DeepCore low-energy extension. Techniques to identify neutrinos interacting within the DeepCore volume and veto muons originating outside the detector are demonstrated. A sample of 1029 events is observed in 281 days of data, of which 496 +/- 66(stat) +/- 88(syst) are estimated to be cascade events, including both electron neutrino and neutral current events. The rest of the sample includes residual backgrounds due to atmospheric muons and charged current interactions of atmospheric muon neutrinos. The flux of the atmospheric electron neutrinos is consistent with models of atmospheric neutrinos in this energy range. This constitutes the first observation of electron neutrinos and neutral current interactions in a very large volume neutrino telescope optimized for the TeV energy range.

Abstract: Nuclear instruments & methods in physics research / A 711, 73 - 89 (2013). doi:10.1016/j.nima.2013.01.054, The IceCube Neutrino Observatory, approximately 1 km3 in size, is now complete with 86 strings deployed in the Antarctic ice. IceCube detects the Cherenkov radiation emitted by charged particles passing through or created in the ice. To realize the full potential of the detector, the properties of light propagation in the ice in and around the detector must be well understood. This report presents a new method of fitting the model of light propagation in the ice to a data set of in situ light source events collected with IceCube. The resulting set of derived parameters, namely the measured values of scattering and absorption coefficients vs. depth, is presented and a comparison of IceCube data with simulations based on the new model is shown., Published by North-Holland Publ.

Abstract: Physical review / D 87(1), 012005 (2013). doi:10.1103/PhysRevD.87.012005, In cosmic ray air showers, the muon lateral separation from the center of the shower is a measure of the transverse momentum that the muon parent acquired in the cosmic ray interaction. IceCube has observed cosmic ray interactions that produce muons laterally separated by up to 400 m from the shower core, a factor of 6 larger distance than previous measurements. These muons originate in high pT (>2 GeV/c) interactions from the incident cosmic ray, or high-energy secondary interactions. The separation distribution shows a transition to a power law at large values, indicating the presence of a hard pT component that can be described by perturbative quantum chromodynamics. However, the rates and the zenith angle distributions of these events are not well reproduced with the cosmic ray models tested here, even those that include charm interactions. This discrepancy may be explained by a larger fraction of kaons and charmed particles than is currently incorporated in the simulations., Published by Soc., [S.l.]

Abstract: We present the results of a search for neutrino point sources using the IceCube data collected between 2008 April and 2011 May with three partially completed configurations of the detector: the 40-, 59-, and 79-string configurations. The live-time of this data set is 1040 days. An unbinned maximum likelihood ratio test was used to search for an excess of neutrinos above the atmospheric background at any given direction in the sky. By adding two more years of data with improved event selection and reconstruction techniques, the sensitivity was improved by a factor of 3.5 or more with respect to the previously published results obtained with the 40-string configuration of IceCube. We performed an all-sky survey and a dedicated search using a catalog of a priori selected objects observed by other telescopes. In both searches, the data are compatible with the background-only hypothesis. In the absence of evidence for a signal, we set upper limits on the flux of muon neutrinos. For an E-2 neutrino spectrum, the observed limits are (0.9-5) x 10(-12) TeV-1 cm(-2) s(-1) for energies between 1 TeV and 1 PeV in the northern sky and (0.9-23.2) x 10(-12) TeV-1 cm(-2) s(-1) for energies between 10(2) TeV and 10(2) PeV in the southern sky. We also report upper limits for neutrino emission from groups of sources that were selected according to theoretical models or observational parameters and analyzed with a stacking approach. Some of the limits presented already reach the level necessary to quantitatively test current models of neutrino emission.

Abstract: Treatment-resistant pigment epithelial detachments can be effectively treated with aflibercept switch therapy. Patients were treated with 3 monthly intravitreal injections and then a Q6 regimen. Mean pigment epithelial detachment height and volume were statistically reduced after the switch at primary endpoint (12 weeks), and best-corrected visual acuity also improved steadily throughout the duration of the study., Purpose: To analyze the efficacy of aflibercept switch treatment for regression of pigment epithelial detachment (PED) in patients previously treated with ranibizumab. Methods: Multicenter, prospective, nonrandomized clinical trial. One eye of patients presenting neovascular age–related macular degeneration with PED of more than 250 μm in height, with persistent fluid, was included. Patients had to have received at least six ranibizumab intravitreal injections during the 12 months before enrollment. Patients were switched from ranibizumab pro re nata to aflibercept (fixed regimen, 3 monthly intravitreal injections, and then Q6). Main outcome measure was change in PED height from baseline to Week 12 after switch. Secondary outcomes were best-corrected visual acuity and PED volume changes. Results: Eighty four patients were included. Mean delay between last ranibizumab intravitreal injection and switch was 44.7 days. Mean maximal PED height at baseline visit was 347 μm (±109) and reduced to a mean of 266 μm (±114) at Week 12 (P < 0.001) and 288.2 μm at Week 32 (P < 0.001). Mean PED volume was reduced from 1.3 mm3 to 0.98 mm3 at Week 12 (P < 0.001). Best-corrected visual acuity improved by 3.3 Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study letters at Week 32 (P = 0.003). Conclusion: Aflibercept switch therapy seems to be effective on large PED in patients previously treated with pro re nata ranibizumab.

Abstract: We report the first measurement of the atmospheric electron neutrino flux in the energy range between approximately 80 GeV and 6 TeV, using data recorded during the first year of operation of IceCube's DeepCore low-energy extension. Techniques to identify neutrinos interacting within the DeepCore volume and veto muons originating outside the detector are demonstrated. A sample of 1029 events is observed in 281 days of data, of which 496±66(stat)±88(syst) are estimated to be cascade events, including both electron neutrino and neutral current events. The rest of the sample includes residual backgrounds due to atmospheric muons and charged current interactions of atmospheric muon neutrinos. The flux of the atmospheric electron neutrinos is consistent with models of atmospheric neutrinos in this energy range. This constitutes the first observation of electron neutrinos and neutral current interactions in a very large volume neutrino telescope optimized for the TeV energy range. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract: Abstract: The mass composition of high energy cosmic rays depends on their production, acceleration, and propagation. The study of cosmic ray composition can therefore reveal hints of the origin of these particles. At the South Pole, the IceCube Neutrino Observatory is capable of measuring two components of cosmic ray air showers in coincidence: the electromagnetic component at high altitude (2835m) using the IceTop surface array, and the muonic component above ∼1TeV using the IceCube array. This unique detector arrangement provides an opportunity for precision measurements of the cosmic ray energy spectrum and composition in the region of the knee and beyond. We present the results of a neural network analysis technique to study the cosmic ray composition and the energy spectrum from 1PeV to 30PeV using data recorded using the 40-string/40-station configuration of the IceCube Neutrino Observatory.

Abstract: Abstract: The muon and anti-muon neutrino energy spectrum is determined from 2000–2003 AMANDA telescope data using regularised unfolding. This is the first measurement of atmospheric neutrinos in the energy range 2–200TeV. The result is compared to different atmospheric neutrino models and it is compatible with the atmospheric neutrinos from pion and kaon decays. No significant contribution from charm hadron decays or extraterrestrial neutrinos is detected. The capabilities to improve the measurement of the neutrino spectrum with the successor experiment IceCube are discussed. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]

Abstract: Purpose: To assess intraobserver and interobserver agreement among physicians with different degrees of clinical experience, using a novel fundus autofluorescence semiautomated software for quantification of geographic atrophy in clinical setting. Methods: Fundus autofluorescence frames (excitation: 488 nm; emission: 500-700 nm) of 29 eyes (20 patients; mean age, 79.6 +/- 6.2 years) with geographic atrophy secondary to age-related macular degeneration, and no signs of choroidal neovascularization, were analyzed using Region Finder, a semiautomated software embedded in Spectralis (Heidelberg Engineering, Heidelberg, Germany). For each study eye, semiautomated atrophy identification and quantification were independently performed, twice (in a 2-week time frame), by 3 readers with different degrees of clinical experience (2 fellows, and 1 resident). Intraobserver and interobserver agreements were assessed. Results: Mean difference in intraobserver agreement (Bland-Altman statistics) ranged from -0.17 mm(2) to 0.13 mm(2). Intraobserver agreement was excellent until the geographic atrophy threshold value of 15.72 mm(2). Variability correlated with the size of atrophy. Mean difference in interobserver agreement (Bland-Altman statistics) ranged from -0.25 mm(2) to 0.27 mm(2), with no significant difference between senior and junior readers. Multifocal lesion or foveal involvement in atrophy was not the cause of disagreement. Conclusion: Region Finder is a reliable tool for the identification and quantification of geographic atrophy in patients with age-related macular degeneration, in a clinical setting even when performed by junior reader.

Abstract: Background: Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is the leading cause of lower-respiratory-tract infection in children. Nirsevimab, a monoclonal antibody against RSV, was implemented in a few countries in September 2023. However, its post-license effectiveness in ambulatory care settings is unknown. We aimed to assess the effectiveness of nirsevimab against RSV-bronchiolitis in outpatients aged <12 months., Methods: We conducted a test-negative case-control study based on a national ambulatory surveillance system. We included all infants aged <12 months who had bronchiolitis and results of an RSV rapid antigen test performed, visiting a network of 107 ambulatory paediatricians from September 15, 2023, to February 1, 2024. Case patients were infants with bronchiolitis and a rapid antigen test positive for RSV. Control patients were infants with bronchiolitis and a rapid antigen test negative for RSV. Effectiveness was assessed by a logistic regression model adjusted for potential confounders. A range of sensitivity analyses were conducted to assess the robustness of the findings., Findings: We included 883 outpatients who had bronchiolitis and results of an RSV rapid antigen test (453 were case patients, and 430 were control patients). Overall, 62/453 (13.7%) case patients and 177/430 (41.2%) control patients had been previously immunised for nirsevimab. The adjusted effectiveness of nirsevimab against RSV-bronchiolitis was 79.7% (95% CI 67.7-87.3). Sensitivity analyses gave similar results., Interpretation: This post-license study indicates that nirsevimab was effective in preventing RSV-bronchiolitis in ambulatory care settings., Funding: The study was supported by Association Clinique et Thérapeutique Infantile du Val de Marne (ACTIV), French Pediatrician Ambulatory Association (AFPA) and unrestricted grants from GSK, MSD, Pfizer and Sanofi., Competing Interests: YL has no conflicts of interest to disclose.

Abstract: Introduction: Fever treatment is commonly applied in patients with sepsis but its impact on survival remains undetermined. Patients with respiratory and haemodynamic failure are at the highest risk for not tolerating the metabolic cost of fever. However, fever can help to control infection. Treating fever with paracetamol has been shown to be less effective than cooling. In the SEPSISCOOL pilot study, active fever control by external cooling improved organ failure recovery and early survival. The main objective of this confirmatory trial is to assess whether fever control at normothermia can improve the evolution of organ failure and mortality at day 60 of febrile patients with septic shock. This study will compare two strategies within the first 48 hours of septic shock: treatment of fever with cooling or no treatment of fever., Methods and Analysis: SEPSISCOOL II is a pragmatic, investigator-initiated, adaptive, multicentre, open-label, randomised controlled, superiority trial in patients admitted to the intensive care unit with febrile septic shock. After stratification based on the acute respiratory distress syndrome status, patients will be randomised between two arms: (1) cooling and (2) no cooling. The primary endpoint is mortality at day 60 after randomisation. The secondary endpoints include the evolution of organ failure, early mortality and tolerance. The target sample size is 820 patients., Ethics and Dissemination: The study is funded by the French health ministry and was approved by the ethics committee CPP Nord Ouest II (Amiens, France). The results will be submitted for publication in peer-reviewed journals., Trial Registration Number: NCT04494074., Competing Interests: Competing interests: FS is a member of the executive committee of the French Intensive Care Society (SRLF).

Abstract: Haemophilus influenzae (Hi) is one of the leading bacteria implicated in childhood acute otitis media (AOM). Recent concerns have been raised about the emergence of Hi-resistant strains. We aimed to analyze the evolution of β-lactam resistance to Hi among strains isolated from nasopharyngeal carriage in children with AOM and in mild ear fluid (MEF) after the spontaneous perforation of the tympanic membrane (SPTM) in France. In this national ambulatory-based cohort study over 16 years, we analyzed the rate of Hi nasopharyngeal carriage and the proportion of β-lactam-resistant Hi strains over time using a segmented linear regression model. Among the 13,865 children (median [IQR] age, 12.7 [9.3-17.3] months; 7400 [53.4%] male) with AOM included from November 2006 to July 2022, Hi was isolated in 7311 (52.7%) children by nasopharyngeal sampling. The proportion of β-lactamase-producing and β-lactamase-negative, ampicillin-resistant (BLNAR) Hi strains in nasopharyngeal carriage remained stable during the study period. Among the 783 children (median [IQR] age, 20 [12.3-37.8] months; 409 [52.2%] male) with SPTM included from October 2015 to July 2022, Hi was isolated in 177 (22.6%) cases by MEF sampling. The proportions of β-lactamase-producing and BLNAR Hi strains did not significantly differ between nasopharyngeal (17.6% and 8.8%, respectively) and MEF (12.6% and 7.4%) samples. Accordingly, amoxicillin remains a valid recommendation as the first-line drug for AOM in France.

296. Meningitis caused by extended-spectrum β-lactamase-producing Escherichia coli in infants in France: a case series.

Author: Lignieres G, Rybak A, Levy C, Birgy A, Bechet S, Bonacorsi S, Cohen R, and Madhi F
Abstract: Objectives: We report the first case series focusing on clinical and biological characteristics of meningitis caused by ESBL-producing Escherichia coli in infants., Methods: Between 2001 and 2020, data on all cases of E. coli meningitis were prospectively collected from a network of 259 paediatric wards and 168 microbiology laboratories in France. We analysed the clinical and biological characteristics, short-term complications and long-term sequelae of ESBL-producing E. coli meningitis cases in patients <6 months old., Results: In total, 548 cases of E. coli paediatric meningitis were reported. ESBL-producing E. coli represented 12 (2.2%) cases. We included 10 patients aged <6 months old. Eight (80%) patients presented at least one sign of clinical severity: six needed mechanical ventilation, three presented signs of shock and one was in a coma. The overall short-term prognosis was good, with only one meningitis-attributed death in the first hours of care. All surviving children received carbapenems for a median of 21 days (range 9-28). Two relapses occurred, including one in a patient who received only 14 days of imipenem. We reported no long-term sequelae at a median follow-up of 20 months., Conclusions: Meropenem seems to be the treatment of choice for ESBL-producing E. coli meningitis in children and needs to be given as early as possible (<48 h) and for at least 21 days. Maternal colonization or infection with ESBL-producing Enterobacteriaceae needs to be reported to the neonatal or paediatric ICU team, in order to adapt the empirical antibiotic therapy., (© The Author(s) 2023.

297. Sex-Related Microglial Perturbation Is Related to Mitochondrial Changes in a Model of Alzheimer's Disease.

Author: O'Neill E, Mela V, Gaban AS, Bechet S, McGrath A, Walsh A, McIntosh A, and Lynch MA
Abstract: Many studies implicate microglia in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD) but precisely how these cells make their impact has not been determined to date. One contributory factor is likely to be the enhanced production of inflammatory mediators and it is now known that microglia with this secretory phenotype exhibit other adaptations including in their morphology, function, and metabolism. AD, like many neurological disorders, demonstrates a sex bias and recent evidence indicates that the sexual dimorphism in microglial function, which has been recognized for many years in early development, persists into adulthood and aging. Here, we demonstrate sex-related differences in microglia from post mortem tissue of male and female AD patients and a marked increase in the number of dystrophic and rod-shaped microglia in tissue from female AD patients compared with males. Furthermore, there was an increase in iron-laden microglia in tissue from female AD patients and this has been reported to reflect mitochondrial changes. To address this further, we assessed changes in microglia from male and female APP/PS1 mice and demonstrate that iron accumulation in microglia is increased to a greater extent in tissue prepared from females compared with males. This was associated with altered expression of genes coding for proteins that modulate mitochondrial function. The findings suggest that sex-related differences in the severity and perhaps incidence of AD may, at least in part, arise from sexual dimorphism in microglia., Competing Interests: The authors declare that the research was conducted in the absence of any commercial or financial relationships that could be construed as a potential conflict of interest., (Copyright © 2022 O’Neill, Mela, Gaban, Bechet, McGrath, Walsh, McIntosh and Lynch.)

298. Fingolimod Rescues Memory and Improves Pathological Hallmarks in the 3xTg-AD Model of Alzheimer's Disease.

Abstract: Therapeutic strategies for Alzheimer's disease (AD) have largely focused on the regulation of amyloid pathology while those targeting tau pathology, and inflammatory mechanisms are less explored. In this regard, drugs with multimodal and concurrent targeting of Aβ, tau, and inflammatory processes may offer advantages. Here, we investigate one such candidate drug in the triple transgenic 3xTg-AD mouse model of AD, namely the disease-modifying oral neuroimmunomodulatory therapeutic used in patients with multiple sclerosis, called fingolimod. In this study, administration of fingolimod was initiated after behavioral symptoms are known to emerge, at 6 months of age. Treatment continued to 12 months when behavioral tests were performed and thereafter histological and biochemical analysis was conducted on postmortem tissue. The results demonstrate that fingolimod reverses deficits in spatial working memory at 8 and 12 months of age as measured by novel object location and Morris water maze tests. Inflammation in the brain is alleviated as demonstrated by reduced Iba1-positive and CD3-positive cell number, less ramified microglial morphology, and improved cytokine profile. Finally, treatment with fingolimod was shown to reduce phosphorylated tau and APP levels in the hippocampus and cortex. These results highlight the potential of fingolimod as a multimodal therapeutic for the treatment of AD., (© 2022. The Author(s).)

299. The Modulatory Effects of DMF on Microglia in Aged Mice Are Sex-Specific.

Abstract: There is a striking sex-related difference in the prevalence of many neurodegenerative diseases, highlighting the need to consider whether treatments may exert sex-specific effects. A change in microglial activation state is a common feature of several neurodegenerative diseases and is considered to be a key factor in driving the inflammation that characterizes these conditions. Among the changes that have been described is a switch in microglial metabolism towards glycolysis which is associated with production of inflammatory mediators and reduced function. Marked sex-related differences in microglial number, phenotype and function have been described in late embryonic and early postnatal life in rodents and some reports suggest that sexual dimorphism extends into adulthood and age and, in models of Alzheimer's disease, the changes are more profound in microglia from female, compared with male, mice. Dimethyl fumarate (DMF) is a fumaric acid ester used in the treatment of psoriasis and relapsing remitting multiple sclerosis and, while its mechanism of action is unclear, it possesses anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidant properties and also impacts on cell metabolism. Here we treated 16-18-month-old female and male mice with DMF for 1 month and assessed its effect on microglia. The evidence indicates that it exerted sex-specific effects on microglial morphology and metabolism, reducing glycolysis only in microglia from female mice. The data suggest that this may result from its ability to inactivate glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH).

300. Clavulanate combinations with mecillinam, cefixime or cefpodoxime against ESBL-producing Enterobacterales frequently associated with blaOXA-1 in a paediatric population with febrile urinary tract infections.

Abstract: Objectives: Oral treatment of febrile urinary tract infections (FUTIs) can be impaired by MDR Enterobacterales often combining ESBL and inhibitor-resistant genes. We studied the impact of β-lactamases and Enterobacterales' genotypes on the cefixime, cefpodoxime and mecillinam ± amoxicillin/clavulanate MICs., Materials and Methods: In this multicentric study, we included 251 previously whole-genome-sequenced ESBL-producing Enterobacterales, isolated in French children with FUTIs. The MICs of cefixime, cefpodoxime, mecillinam alone and combined with amoxicillin/clavulanate were determined and analysed with respect to genomic data. We focused especially on the isolates' ST and their type of β-lactamases. Clinical outcomes of patients who received cefixime + amoxicillin/clavulanate were also analysed., Results: All isolates were cefixime and cefpodoxime resistant. Disparities depending on blaCTX-M variants were observed for cefixime. The addition of amoxicillin/clavulanate restored susceptibility for cefixime and cefpodoxime in 97.2% (MIC50/90 of 0.38/0.75 mg/L) and 55.4% (MIC50/90 of 1/2 mg/L) of isolates, respectively, whatever the ST, the blaCTX-M variants or the association with inhibitor-resistant β-lactamases (34.2%). All isolates were susceptible to mecillinam + amoxicillin/clavulanate with MIC50/90 of 0.19/0.25 mg/L, respectively. Neither therapeutic failure nor any subsequent positive control urine culture were reported for patients who received cefixime + amoxicillin/clavulanate as an oral relay therapy (n = 54)., Conclusions: Despite the frequent association of ESBL genes with inhibitor-resistant β-lactamases, the cefixime + amoxicillin/clavulanate MICs remain low. The in vivo efficacy of this combination was satisfying even when first-line treatment was ineffective. Considering the MIC distributions and pharmacokinetic parameters, mecillinam + amoxicillin/clavulanate should also be an alternative to consider when treating FUTIs in children., (© The Author(s) 2021.
