1. Conceptualising the role of values in environmental governance and management: an analytical framework

Author: Christopher Kuster, Michelle Voyer, Catherine Moyle, and Anna Lewis
Subjects: David Abson, Values, environmental governance, environmental management, integration, relational values, Human ecology. Anthropogeography, GF1-900, Environmental sciences, GE1-350
Abstract: Human and ecological values influence all aspects of governance and management processes and in doing so, contribute to environmental decisions and outcomes. However, there is an absence of coherent and well-developed guidance to assist understanding of how values influence the different aspects of environmental governance and management. This paper addresses the gap between environmental values theory and governance and management practice. With in the context of Government policy making and implementation we examine the meaning and influence of principle, contextual and relational values in connection to the normative, empirical, and applied aspects of environmental governance and management. We present a conceptual framework articulating the relationships between value types and their influence on governance and management processes, demonstrating that management actions (applied) are based on empirical understandings (contextual values) through a lens of normative judgments (principle values). In addition to clarifying the role of values in governance and management, the framework is envisaged as an analytical tool to assist management practitioners to: 1) elucidate the values operating in a given governance or management setting; 2) tease out how different values influence the aspects of governance and management (e.g. goal setting, assessment, and choosing and applying management strategies), and how those aspects interact to influence outcomes; and 3) to identify potential value conflicts or synergies to guide the integration of multiple environmental interests, priorities and knowledges.

Abstract: ABSTRACTThe fate of herpesvirus genomes following entry into different cell types is thought to regulate the outcome of infection. For the Herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1), latent infection of neurons is characterized by association with repressive heterochromatin marked with Polycomb silencing-associated lysine 27 methylation on histone H3 (H3K27me). However, whether H3K27 methylation plays a role in repressing lytic gene expression in non-neuronal cells is unclear. To address this gap in knowledge, and with consideration that the fate of the viral genome and outcome of HSV-1 infection could be heterogeneous, we developed an assay to quantify the abundance of histone modifications within single viral genome foci of infected fibroblasts. Using this approach, combined with bulk epigenetic techniques, we were unable to detect any role for H3K27me3 during HSV-1 lytic infection of fibroblasts. By contrast, we could detect the lesser studied H3K27me2 on a subpopulation of viral genomes, which was consistent with a role for H3K27 demethylases in promoting lytic gene expression. In addition, viral genomes co-localized with the H3K27me2 reader protein PHF20L1, and this association was enhanced by inhibition of the H3K27 demethylases UTX and JMJD3. Notably, targeting of H3K27me2 to viral genomes was enhanced following infection with a transcriptionally defective virus in the absence of Promyelocytic leukemia nuclear bodies. Collectively, these studies implicate a role for H3K27me2 in fibroblast-associated HSV genome silencing in a manner dependent on genome sub-nuclear localization and transcriptional activity.IMPORTANCEInvestigating the potential mechanisms of gene silencing for DNA viruses in different cell types is important to understand the differential outcomes of infection, particularly for viruses like herpesviruses that can undergo distinct types of infection in different cell types. In addition, investigating chromatin association with viral genomes informs on the mechanisms of epigenetic regulation of DNA processes. However, there is a growing appreciation for heterogeneity in the outcome of infection at the single cell, and even single viral genome, level. Here we describe a novel assay for quantifying viral genome foci with chromatin proteins and show that a portion of genomes are targeted for silencing by H3K27me2 and associate with the reader protein PHF20L1. This study raises important questions regarding the mechanism of H3K27me2-specific targeting to viral genomes, the contribution of epigenetic heterogeneity to herpesvirus infection, and the role of PHF20L1 in regulating the outcome of DNA virus infection.

3. 299 A CTS team approach to assess the in vitro toxicity of microplastic fibers to human lung epithelial cells cultured at an air-liquid interface

Author: Amber O'Connor, Sripriya Nannu Shankar, Anna Lewis, Lee Ferguson, Chang-Yu Wu, and Tara-Sabo Attwood
Subjects: Medicine
Abstract: OBJECTIVES/GOALS: Our goal is to determine whether microplastic fibers (MPFs) provide signals for dendritic cell-induced Th2 polarization via epithelial-cell-derived thymic stromal lymphopoietin (TSLP). We seek to highlight a potential mechanism for MPF-induced airway toxicity associated with asthma exacerbation. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: Primary human bronchial epithelial cells (NHBEs) were grown and differentiated at an air-liquid interface. Dyed and undyed polyester MPFs (14x45 µm) generated using a cryomicrotome were delivered to NHBEs through a custom designed mesh-hopper system. After the exposure period (6, 12, 24 hrs), cell viability was assessed using alamarBlue, and RT-qPCR was performed to determine mRNA expression of asthma associated genes (i.e., TSLP, IL-13, IL-33, etc.,) in NHBEs. Bulk mRNA-sequencing followed by bioinformatics will be performed to observe other plausible pathways tweaked by lung cell exposure to MPFs. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: Through gravimetric analysis, it was determined that the mesh-hopper system can achieve delivery efficiencies of at least 85% for as low as 500 fibers. Following exposure, results show polyester MPFs (500 - 1,000 fibers) exposed to NHBEs at multiple time points (6, 12, 24 hrs) did not result in a statistically significant decrease in cell viability. Treatment with 500 undyed MPFs resulted in a slight increase in TSLP expression at 6 hrs that decreased over time, whereas all other treatment groups resulted in TSLP downregulation. Similarly, 500 undyed MPFs resulted in an increase in IL-13 expression at both 6 and 12 hrs with all other treatment groups leading to IL-13 downregulation. We anticipate the RNA-seq results will show pro-inflammatory pathways are highly targeted following NHBE exposure to MPFs. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE: This study is one of the first to mechanistically assess the impact of MPFs on lung cells while simultaneously addressing the need for a reliable system that delivers MPFs to ALI cultures to better mimic inhalation and avoid inadequate resuspension of particles in liquid medium.

4. Massive presence of off‐label medicines in Danish neonatal departments: A nationwide survey using national hospital purchase data

Author: Christina Gade, Stine Trolle, Mette‐Louise Mørk, Anna Lewis, Peter Fruergaard Andersen, Thorkild Jacobsen, Jon Andersen, and Ulrik Lausten‐Thomsen
Subjects: European Paediatric Regulation, infant, newborn, NICU, off‐label medicines, pharmacology, Therapeutics. Pharmacology, RM1-950
Abstract: Abstract There is currently insufficient knowledge of gestational age dependent medicine disposition in neonates. Accordingly, the use of off‐label medication, i.e., use of medicines outside its approved marketing authorization, is high in the neonatal departments. By using data from the Danish National Pharmaceutical Hospital Purchase Database, we identified the most commonly occurring medications and calculated the on/off‐label ratios for premature and term neonates. Data was extracted on ATC level 5 and based on defined daily doses as per WHO. Data covered the 4 high‐level NICUs and 10 of 13 of the intermediate/standard level Danish neonatal departments. Of the identified medication, 87% and 70% did not have approved marketing authorization for use in premature and full‐term neonates, respectively. Furthermore, one‐fifth of the top 100 medicines did not have a (Danish) marketing license. Overall, off‐label medication was widespread covering virtually all ATC groups and no ATC group had an off‐label level lower than 50% (range 50%–100%). Finally, in 21% of medications, additives from 8 different chemical groups with potential deleterious effects for neonates were identified. In conclusion, off‐label medication in the Danish neonatal departments is widespread. The pharmaceutical industry is unlikely to solve this problem, and we may for a very long time be occasionally forced to use off‐label medication. Practical solution must therefore come from multidisciplinary clinical and academic collaboration. Use of formulation list as guidance for prescriptions and NICU‐friendly galenic formulations may mitigate the problem temporarily while waiting for definitive studies.

5. Public Health Messaging for Wildfire Smoke: Cast a Wide Net

Author: Erin M. Shellington, Phuong D. M. Nguyen, Karen Rideout, Prabjit Barn, Anna Lewis, Margaret Baillie, Sue Lutz, Ryan W. Allen, Jiayun Yao, Christopher Carlsten, and Sarah B. Henderson
Subjects: wildfire, air pollution, air quality, public health, communication, knowledge translation, Public aspects of medicine, RA1-1270
Abstract: Wildfire smoke events are increasing in British Columbia (BC), Canada and environmental and public health agencies are responsible for communicating the health-related risks and mitigation strategies. To evaluate and identify opportunities for improving public communications about wildfire smoke and associated health risks we collaborated with end-users and developed a 32-question online survey. The survey was deployed province-wide from 29 September to 31 December 2020 following a severe wildfire smoke episode, which impacted large parts of BC. Using a convenience sample, we disseminated the survey through email lists, radio advertisements, a provincial research platform, and snowball methods. There were 757 respondents, who were generally representative of provincial demographics. Respondents indicated that they receive wildfire smoke messages from diverse sources, including: websites, social media, radio, and television. Radio was identified as the most important source of information for populations that may have increased exposure or health risks, including Indigenous respondents and those working in the trades. Respondents with lower educational attainment expressed that messaging should be simplified. Environmental and public health agencies should continue to share wildfire smoke messages using diverse methods, ideally tailoring the messages and methods to specific populations at risk for exposure and health effects.

6. Whisker growth in Tasmanian devils (Sarcophilus harrisii) and applications for stable isotope studies

Subjects: biomarkers, diet, foraging ecology, growth models, keratin, Sarcophilus harrisii, Ecology, QH540-549.5
Abstract: Abstract Individual longitudinal records of diet, movement, and physiological state of endangered Tasmanian devils (Sarcophilus harrisii) are needed for effective management of wild populations, yet most traditional techniques are expensive or labor‐intensive. Stable isotope analysis of inert tissue, such as vibrissae (whiskers), provides a viable and minimally invasive solution to chronologically record the foraging ecology and habitat use of individuals. Species‐specific information on whisker growth (i.e., time‐position growth of isotopic signatures), retention time, and arrangement on the face is required before the implementation of stable isotope analysis in wild populations. Here, whiskers of six captive Tasmanian devils were internally marked with 13C‐ and 15N‐labeled glycine at three‐month intervals followed by isotopic analysis of the longest whisker to provide a time stamp for whisker growth and estimate retention time. Intradermal and extradermal lengths of wild Tasmanian devil whiskers were used to assess the arrangement and relative length of whiskers on the face. We found that whiskers can record at least nine months of an animal's ecological history and that whisker growth is not linear, the growth gradually slows down as the whisker lengthens. Our findings demonstrate that sequentially sampled whiskers have the potential to track monthly and seasonal isotopic changes of an individual animal in the wild, both within its historical range and in areas to which it has recently been introduced. Such information can be used to identify temporal shifts in habitat and prey preferences within populations and help select suitable individuals for translocations. We recommend that the longest mystacial whiskers, positioned posteriorly at the third and fourth row, should be preferentially used for stable isotope studies in this species. The timeframe represented by the root of the whisker (˜3–63 d) can be used to adjust the base of cut whiskers to the correct time period.

Subjects: Medicine
Abstract: Introduction The number of older adults diagnosed with cancer is increasing. Older adults are more likely to have pre-existing frailty, which is associated with greater chemotherapy-related toxicity. Early identification of those at risk of toxicity is important to reduce patient morbidity and mortality. Current chemotherapy toxicity prediction tools including the Cancer and Ageing Research Group (CARG) tool exist but are not in routine clinical use and have not been prospectively validated in a UK population. This study is the first prospective study to investigate the CARG tool in a UK population with cancer.Methods and analysis Tolerance Of Anticancer Systemic Therapy In the Elderly is a prospective observational study of patients, aged ≥65 years, commencing first-line (any indication) chemotherapy for a solid-organ malignancy. Patients receiving other systemic anticancer agents or radiotherapy will be excluded. The primary objective will be to validate the ability of the CARG score to predict grade 3+ toxicity in this population. Secondary objectives include describing the feasibility of screening for frailty, as well as the prevalance of frailty in this population and assessing patient and clinician perception of chemotherapy toxicity risk. 500 patients will be recruited over a two year period. Baseline assessments will be recorded. At the end of the 6-month follow-up period, toxicity data will be retrospectively collected. A descriptive analysis of the recruited population will be performed. The validity of the CARG model will be analysed using receiver-operating characteristic curves and calculation of the area under the curve (c-statistic).Ethics and dissemination The study has received ethical approval from the East of Scotland Research Ethics Service 20/ES/0114. Results will be reported in peer-reviewed scientific journals and disseminated to patient organisations and media.

Abstract: Background: Ancestry is often viewed as a more objective and less objectionable population descriptor than race or ethnicity. Perhaps reflecting this, usage of the term “ancestry” is rapidly growing in genetics research, with ancestry groups referenced in many situations. The appropriate usage of population descriptors in genetics research is an ongoing source of debate. Sound normative guidance should rest on an empirical understanding of current usage; in the case of ancestry, questions about how researchers use the concept, and what they mean by it, remain unanswered.Methods: Systematic literature analysis of 205 articles at least tangentially related to human health from diverse disciplines that use the concept of ancestry, and semi-structured interviews with 44 lead authors of some of those articles.Results: Ancestry is relied on to structure research questions and key methodological approaches. Yet researchers struggle to define it, and/or offer diverse definitions. For some ancestry is a genetic concept, but for many—including geneticists—ancestry is only tangentially related to genetics. For some interviewees, ancestry is explicitly equated to ethnicity; for others it is explicitly distanced from it. Ancestry is operationalized using multiple data types (including genetic variation and self-reported identities), though for a large fraction of articles (26%) it is impossible to tell which data types were used. Across the literature and interviews there is no consistent understanding of how ancestry relates to genetic concepts (including genetic ancestry and population structure), nor how these genetic concepts relate to each other. Beyond this conceptual confusion, practices related to summarizing patterns of genetic variation often rest on uninterrogated conventions. Continental labels are by far the most common type of label applied to ancestry groups. We observed many instances of slippage between reference to ancestry groups and racial groups.Conclusion: Ancestry is in practice a highly ambiguous concept, and far from an objective counterpart to race or ethnicity. It is not uniquely a “biological” construct, and it does not represent a “safe haven” for researchers seeking to avoid evoking race or ethnicity in their work. Distinguishing genetic ancestry from ancestry more broadly will be a necessary part of providing conceptual clarity.

Abstract: Summary Our oceans, and the communities that rely on them, are facing diverse, interconnected, and cumulative threats, such as large-scale industrialization, climate change, and pollution. Integrated ocean management (IOM) is a governance approach that is designed to address these threats in a coordinated way while ensuring equitable distribution of resources and a reduction in conflict between invested parties. There are, however, a confusing and often competing array of different approaches to IOM, which can inhibit the success of its application and undermine sustainability efforts. Here, we propose an NAE (normative, applied, and empirical) conceptual model and demonstrate the utility of this approach as a tool through which to categorize the many different IOM frameworks. In doing so, we identify that most IOM frameworks provide for insufficient integration across one or more focus areas. By identifying these gaps, we provide a means through which future ocean governance can support more comprehensive integration.

Abstract: Assessing the risk of common, complex diseases requires consideration of clinical risk factors as well as monogenic and polygenic risks, which in turn may be reflected in family history. Returning risks to individuals and providers may influence preventive care or use of prophylactic therapies for those individuals at high genetic risk.To enable integrated genetic risk assessment, the eMERGE (electronic MEdical Records and GEnomics) network is enrolling 25,000 diverse individuals in a prospective cohort study across 10 sites. The network developed methods to return cross-ancestry polygenic risk scores (PRS), monogenic risks, family history, and clinical risk assessments via a Genome Informed Risk Assessment (GIRA) report and will assess uptake of care recommendations after return of results.GIRAs include summary care recommendations for 11 conditions, education pages, and clinical laboratory reports. The return of high-risk GIRA to individuals and providers includes guidelines for care and lifestyle recommendations. Assembling the GIRA required infrastructure and workflows for ingesting and presenting content from multiple sources. Recruitment began in February 2022.Return of a novel report for communicating monogenic, polygenic, and family history based risk factors will inform the benefits of integrated genetic risk assessment for routine health care.

Abstract: Background and Purpose Pharmaceutical treatment in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) is challenging, and newborns are often exposed to numerous different medicines during their hospitalization. There is currently insufficient knowledge of gestational age dependent medicine disposition, and accordingly the use of off-label medication, i.e., use of medicines outside its approved marketing authorization, is high. This study aims to estimate the off-label medication use in Danish neonatal departments. Experimental Approach By using data from the Danish National Pharmaceutical Hospital Purchase Database, we identified the most commonly occurring medicines and estimated the on/off-label ratios for premature and term neonates. Data was extracted on ATC level 5 and based on defined daily doses as per WHO. Key Results Data included was covering the 4 high-level NICUs and 10 of 13 of the intermediate/standard level neonatal departments in Denmark. Of the identified medication, 87% and 70% did not have approved marketing authorization for use in premature and full-term neonates, respectively. Furthermore one-fifth of the top 100 medicines did not have a (Danish) marketing license. Overall, off-label medication was widespread covering virtually all ATC groups and no ATC group had an off-label level lower than 50%. Finally, in 21% of medications, additives from 8 different chemical groups with potential deleterious effects for neonates were identified. Conclusion Off-label medication in the Danish neonatal departments is widespread, and the current state of neonatal official regulatory drug approval leaves both patients and neonatologists in a limbo between legal pharmaco-regulation and clinical need for pharmacotherapy in neonatology.

16. Surviving the Intensive Care Unit

Author: Nina Laing and Anna Lewis
Abstract: As medical technology becomes more accessible and complex, survival from critical illness is not uncommon, and programs are evolving to meet the post–intensive care unit (ICU) needs of patients and families. Survivors of critical illness are often faced with a constellation of new or worsening physical, psychological, and cognitive disabilities known as postintensive care syndrome (PICS). Family members are also susceptible to mental health concerns as a direct result of their family member’s critical illness and ICU admission. Palliative social workers have expertise in comprehensive assessment, systems analysis, collaborative communication, supportive care, and a range of intervention techniques which inform quality care for patients and their families in the ICU, through discharge or death and, for some, posthospitalization visits to a critical illness recovery center.

Subjects: Critical Care Nursing
Abstract: To examine the needs of adult survivors of critical illness through a lens of palliative care.A qualitative study of adult survivors of critical illness using semi-structured interviews and framework analysis.Participants were recruited from the post-intensive care unit clinic of a mid-Atlantic academic medical center in the United States.Seventeen survivors of critical illness aged 34-80 (median, 66) participated in the study. The majority of patients were female (64.7 %, n = 11) with a median length of index ICU stay of 12 days (interquartile range [IQR] 8-19). Interviews were conducted February to March 2021 and occurred a median of 20 months following the index intensive care stay (range, 13-33 months). We identified six key themes which align with palliative care principles: 1) persistent symptom burden; 2) critical illness as a life-altering experience; 3) spiritual changes and significance; 4) interpreting/managing the survivor experience; 5) feelings of loss and burden; and 6) social support needs.Our findings suggest that palliative care components such as symptom management, goals of care discussions, care coordination, and spiritual and social support may assist in the assessment and treatment of survivors of critical illness.

Abstract: Individual longitudinal records of diet, movement, and physiological state of endangered Tasmanian devils (Sarcophilus harrisii) are needed for effective management of wild populations, yet most traditional techniques are expensive or labor‐intensive. Stable isotope analysis of inert tissue, such as vibrissae (whiskers), provides a viable and minimally invasive solution to chronologically record the foraging ecology and habitat use of individuals. Species‐specific information on whisker growth (i.e., time‐position growth of isotopic signatures), retention time, and arrangement on the face is required before the implementation of stable isotope analysis in wild populations. Here, whiskers of six captive Tasmanian devils were internally marked with 13C‐ and 15N‐labeled glycine at three‐month intervals followed by isotopic analysis of the longest whisker to provide a time stamp for whisker growth and estimate retention time. Intradermal and extradermal lengths of wild Tasmanian devil whiskers were used to assess the arrangement and relative length of whiskers on the face. We found that whiskers can record at least nine months of an animal's ecological history and that whisker growth is not linear, the growth gradually slows down as the whisker lengthens. Our findings demonstrate that sequentially sampled whiskers have the potential to track monthly and seasonal isotopic changes of an individual animal in the wild, both within its historical range and in areas to which it has recently been introduced. Such information can be used to identify temporal shifts in habitat and prey preferences within populations and help select suitable individuals for translocations. We recommend that the longest mystacial whiskers, positioned posteriorly at the third and fourth row, should be preferentially used for stable isotope studies in this species. The timeframe represented by the root of the whisker (˜3–63 d) can be used to adjust the base of cut whiskers to the correct time period.

Abstract: Camouflage-breaking is a special case of visual search where an object of interest, or target, can be hard to distinguish from the background even when in plain view. We have previously shown that naive, non-professional subjects can be trained using a deep learning paradigm to accurately perform a camouflage-breaking task in which they report whether or not a given camouflage scene contains a target. But it remains unclear whether such expert subjects can actually detect the target in this task, or just vaguely sense that the two classes of images are somehow different, without being able to find the target per se. Here, we show that when subjects break camouflage, they can also localize the camouflaged target accurately, even though they had received no specific training in localizing the target. The localization was significantly accurate when the subjects viewed the scene as briefly as 50 ms, but more so when the subjects were able to freely view the scenes. The accuracy and precision of target localization by expert subjects in the camouflage-breaking task were statistically indistinguishable from the accuracy and precision of target localization by naive subjects during a conventional visual search where the target ‘pops out’, i.e., is readily visible to the untrained eye. Together, these results indicate that when expert camouflage-breakers detect a camouflaged target, they can also localize it accurately.

Abstract: The ageing population poses new challenges globally. Cancer care for older patients is one of these challenges, and it has a significant impact on societies. In the United Kingdom (UK), as the number of older cancer patients increases, the management of this group has become part of daily practice for most oncology teams in every geographical area. Older cancer patients are at a higher risk of both under- and over-treatment. Therefore, the assessment of a patient's biological age and effective organ functional reserve becomes paramount. This may then guide treatment decisions by better estimating a prognosis and the risk-to-benefit ratio of a given therapy to anticipate and mitigate against potential toxicities/difficulties. Moreover, older cancer patients are often affected by geriatric syndromes and other issues that impact their overall health, function and quality of life. Comprehensive geriatric assessments offer an opportunity to identify and address health problems which may then optimise one's fitness and well-being. Whilst it is widely accepted that older cancer patients may benefit from such an approach, resources are often scarce, and access to dedicated services and research remains limited to specific centres across the UK. The aim of this project is to map the current services and projects in the UK to learn from each other and shape the future direction of care of older patients with cancer.

Abstract: Background Delirium is a common severe neuropsychiatric condition secondary to physical illness, which predominantly affects older adults in hospital. Prior to this study, the UK point prevalence of delirium was unknown. We set out to ascertain the point prevalence of delirium across UK hospitals and how this relates to adverse outcomes. Methods We conducted a prospective observational study across 45 UK acute care hospitals. Older adults aged 65 years and older were screened and assessed for evidence of delirium on World Delirium Awareness Day (14th March 2018). We included patients admitted within the previous 48 h, excluding critical care admissions. Results The point prevalence of Diagnostic and Statistical Manual on Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition (DSM-5) delirium diagnosis was 14.7% (222/1507). Delirium presence was associated with higher Clinical Frailty Scale (CFS): CFS 4–6 (frail) (OR 4.80, CI 2.63–8.74), 7–9 (very frail) (OR 9.33, CI 4.79–18.17), compared to 1–3 (fit). However, higher CFS was associated with reduced delirium recognition (7–9 compared to 1–3; OR 0.16, CI 0.04–0.77). In multivariable analyses, delirium was associated with increased length of stay (+ 3.45 days, CI 1.75–5.07) and increased mortality (OR 2.43, CI 1.44–4.09) at 1 month. Screening for delirium was associated with an increased chance of recognition (OR 5.47, CI 2.67–11.21). Conclusions Delirium is prevalent in older adults in UK hospitals but remains under-recognised. Frailty is strongly associated with the development of delirium, but delirium is less likely to be recognised in frail patients. The presence of delirium is associated with increased mortality and length of stay at one month. A national programme to increase screening has the potential to improve recognition.

Abstract: We have all have experienced the frustration of looking for something we want, only to find a seemingly endless series of things we do not want. This process of looking for an object of interest is called visual search. We perform visual search all the time in everyday life, because the objects we want are almost always surrounded by many other objects. But, in some cases, it takes special training to find things, such as when searching for cancers in X-rays, weapons or explosives in airport luggage, or an enemy sniper hidden in the bushes. Understanding how we search for, and find, objects we are looking for is crucial to understanding how ordinary people and experts alike operate in the real world. While much remains to be discovered, what we have learned so far offers a fascinating window into how we see.

33. Abstract 1231: Targeting JNK1/2 induces a potent cytostatic response in estrogen receptor expressing breast cancer cells, with induction of autophagy and senescence as measurable outcomes

Abstract: The c-Jun N-terminal kinases, JNK1/2 are members of the mitogen activated protein kinase (MAPK) family that can mediate inflammatory responses, cell differentiation, cell proliferation, and/or cell death. In breast cancer, JNK signaling has been associated with increased proliferation, angiogenesis, and tumor metastasis. Also, inhibition of JNK has been shown to promote tumor cytostasis, but this inhibition also attenuates the cytotoxic effects of certain chemotherapeutics, calling into question the therapeutic potential of JNK inhibitors. In this study, we hypothesized that JNK1/2 inhibition induced autophagy, as a mechanism of protection against chemotherapy- and endocrine-induced apoptosis. Autophagy is a normal physiologic process required for the elimination of damaged mitochondria and misfolded proteins that can be induced in cancer cells under certain stresses such as hypoxia and drug insult to provide protection from death. To characterize the role of JNK1/2 in autophagy, we utilized two ERα expressing human breast cancer cell lines, T47-D and MCF-7. Autophagy flux experiments were performed in which the steady state levels of the autophagy protein LC3 II were analyzed in control cells versus cells undergoing JNK1/2 inhibition with the non-reversible JNK-IN8 inhibitor. JNK-IN8 was used as a single agent or in combination with estradiol and/or antiestrogen treatment. These studies reproducibly identified JNK1/2 inhibition as a mechanism of autophagy activation. The induction of autophagy correlated with sustained inhibition of proliferation as determined by cell counts, MTT, and clonogenic assays, and induction of senescence (in T47-D cells) as determined by the expression of β-galactosidase. In contrast, induction of apoptosis was not a major outcome of JNK1/2 inhibition. These pre-clinical studies provide strong evidence that JNK1/2 is an attractive molecular target to improve the treatment of endocrine responsive breast cancer, but they also emphasize that cells are surviving by autophagy and/or senescence. Because cell survival by autophagy and/or senescence could ultimately lead to breast cancer relapse, ongoing studies are addressing approaches to effectively kill these surviving cell populations.

Abstract: Background: cancellation of planned surgery impacts substantially on patients and health systems. This study describes the incidence and reasons for cancellation of inpatient surgery in the UK NHS. Methods: we conducted a prospective observational cohort study over 7 consecutive days in March 2017 in 245 NHS hospitals. Occurrences and reasons for previous surgical cancellations were recorded. Using multilevel logistic regression, we identified patient- and hospital-level factors associated with cancellation due to inadequate bed capacity. Results: we analysed data from 14 936 patients undergoing planned surgery. A total of 1499 patients (10.0%) reported previous cancellation for the same procedure; contemporaneous hospital census data indicated that 13.9% patients attending inpatient operations were cancelled on the day of surgery. Non-clinical reasons, predominantly inadequate bed capacity, accounted for a large proportion of previous cancellations. Independent risk factors for cancellation due to inadequate bed capacity included requirement for postoperative critical care [odds ratio (OR)=2.92; 95% confidence interval (CI), 2.12–4.02; PConclusions: a significant proportion of patients presenting for surgery have experienced a previous cancellation for the same procedure. Cancer surgery is relatively protected, but bed capacity, including postoperative critical care requirements, are significant risk factors for previous cancellations.

Abstract: Over a million smokers are admitted to hospitals in the UK each year. The extent to which tobacco dependence is identified and addressed in this population is unclear. Data on 14,750 patients from 146 hospitals collected for the British Thoracic Society smoking cessation audit were analysed to determine smoking prevalence, attempts to ask smokers about quitting, and referrals to smoking cessation services. Associations with hospital organisational factors were assessed by logistic regression. Overall hospital smoking prevalence was 25%. Only 28% of smokers were asked whether they would like to quit, and only one in 13 smokers was referred for treatment of tobacco dependence. There was a higher chance of smokers being asked about quitting in organisations with smoke-free sites, dedicated smoking cessation practitioners, regular staff training, and availability of advanced pharmacotherapy. Treatment of tobacco dependence in smokers attending UK hospitals is poor and could be associated with organisational factors.

39. Chief Pushmataha, American Patriot : The Story of the Choctaws’ Struggle for Survival

Author: Anna Lewis and Anna Lewis
Abstract: This is the compelling biography of one of the greatest Indians in American history. Historian, author Anna Lewis, herself part Choctaw, not only provides a dramatic chronicle of the Choctaw's struggle to survive aggression by both Europeans and Americans, but a revealing history of the Choctaws and their picturesque legends.“THE NAME OF THE CHOCTAW CHIEFTAIN Pushmataha heads the list of great chiefs in Choctaw history. This volume is an attempt to serve the double purpose of a biography of Pushmataha and a history of his people during their struggle to survive white aggression, both European and American. The position taken by Pushmataha in this transition period was to accept white civilization as much as possible, yet to remain Choctaw. For this reason, he aided the Americans in the War of 1812 and signed the Treaty of Doak's Stand. By this treaty he agreed to exchange lands in Mississippi for a large tract of land west, in the present state of Oklahoma. He was a simple, primitive Indian, but he had to deal with land-hungry Americans, who were not simple in their knowledge of the power of flattery and bribery.”—Anna Lewis, Foreword

42. 'Give the Reason for the Hope that you Have': Reginald Pecock’s Challenge to (Non)Disputing Lollards

Author: Anna Lewis
Subjects: Literature, business.industry, media_common.quotation_subject, Orthodoxy, General Medicine, False accusation, Church renewal, Heresy, Law, Isolation (psychology), Sociology, business, Lollardy, media_common
Abstract: Medieval scholars are in broad agreement about Lollardy’s academic roots and its familiarity with disputational techniques; contemporaries also recognized these characteristics of the movement. It is surprising, then, to find that Bishop Reginald Pecock, the most vocal and persistent of Lollardy’s fifteenth-century opponents, accused Lollards of resisting sincere, reasonable, and academically informed debate and of refusing to offer a clear defense of their own opinions. This article considers how and why Pecock made this unusual accusation. It examines Pecock’s view of the “processes” of reason and suggests that, by characterizing Lollards as those who reject these processes, Pecock was able to clearly distinguish his own theological project from theirs. Pecock’s project, outlined in his written works, encompasses education, Christian community, and church renewal, and places debate and discussion at its center. By emphasizing Lollard refusal to engage in true and earnest discussion, Pecock tapped into a tradition that identified a failure to clearly communicate as a mark of the heretic’s isolation from the wider Christian community. Pecock’s vision, by way of contrast, actively promotes an alternative communal model of lay learning that fosters orthodoxy and respect between clergy and laity.

Subjects: medicine.medical_specialty, education.field_of_study, business.industry, Addiction, media_common.quotation_subject, Population, Smoking prevalence, Family medicine, Hospital admission, medicine, Case note, Observational study, Smoking status, National average, education, business, media_common
Abstract: Background: Hospital admission provides a special opportunity to identify smokers, and treatment of smoking in hospitalised patients is particularly effective. Objectives: We hypothesised that smoking prevalence is higher in people admitted to hospital compared to the general UK population, and higher in specific subgroups, such as emergency admissions. Methods: A British Thoracic Society online survey was used by hospitals, who randomly selected elective and emergency admissions under surgery and medicine, and retrospectively reviewed their case notes. Documentation of smoking status and treatment was recorded. Results: 146 institutions participated with 14,750 patient records submitted. Smoking status was recorded in 73% of cases. Smoking prevalence in UK hospital admissions was 25% (28% in males; 23% in females), significantly higher than the national average of 19% in Great Britain1 (p Conclusions: This is the first UK wide study to measure real time smoking prevalence in hospitals. Smoking prevalence is significantly higher in people admitted to hospital than the general UK population. It is especially high in younger adults and emergency admissions. With at least 1 in 4 patients being current smokers, hospitalisation represents a unique opportunity to treat tobacco addiction. 1 Office for national Statistics

44. Weight in Parkinson's Disease: Phenotypical Significance

Author: Jagdish C, Sharma and Anna, Lewis
Subjects: Smell, Phenotype, Risk Factors, Deep Brain Stimulation, Body Weight, Weight Loss, Humans, Parkinson Disease, Overweight, Energy Intake, Hormones
Abstract: Body weight in Parkinson's disease (PD) is a significant nonmotor feature. Weight homeostasis is a complex physiological process and gets deranged in PD patients leading to changes in weight. While both the low and high body weight have been reported as risk factors for PD, the majority of PD patients have a lower weight and a subset of patients lose weight during the course of the disease, while a small proportion gain weight. A number of clinical parameters such as older age, impaired cognition, severity of disease, and an imbalance of food intake determined by satiety and hunger hormones have been reported to be associated with but not the cause of weight change. Low body weight and weight loss have a negative impact on disease severity, dyskinesia quality of life, and mortality indicative of disease progression. An early assessment of olfactory impairment seems to identify patients at risk of weight loss, the patients with more severe olfactory loss-anosmic group, lose weight as compared to the patients with some preservation of olfaction, the hyposmic group. Higher levodopa dose per kilogram body weight increases the risk of dyskinesia, higher body weight seems to be protective against this complication. The identification of PD patients according to the nonmotor phenotype of "Park-olfaction-weight-phenotype" and the "olfaction-weight-dyskinesia" triad should help to develop strategies to prevent weight reduction and improve general health and complications of PD patients. The phenotype seems to reflect a differential prodromal pathology and influence clinical disease. Higher body weight patients would benefit from life style changes to achieve a healthy profile. Weight monitoring and weight orientated approach to management of PD patients should help to improve their outcome. Body weight change might be a surrogate to disease progression and may be used to investigate neuroprotection strategies.

Subjects: Science educator, business.industry, Political science, Professional learning community, Professional development, Big data, Pedagogy, Mathematics education, business
Abstract: Scientific discovery, problem-solving, and hypothesis testing requires observation, data analysis and synthesis of new knowledge. In today's world, this process is highly dependent on computer-based data exploration of high volume, high velocity, and high variety data streams (3HV) However, though the power of 3HV surpasses the amount of information gathered from more familiar lab experiences, data-intensive science has not yet achieved the same impact or prominence in public education. This chapter provides an examination of the Education And Research: Testing Hypotheses (EARTH) Science Educator Professional Development (PD) which was developed to bridge this gap, bringing data-intensive science into the classroom while supporting inquiry learning practices.

Abstract: Students with disabilities are increasingly included in general education science classrooms and are expected to demonstrate academic proficiency on standardized assessments. Teacher preparation and attitudes have been cited as major factors contributing to either the success or failure of students with disabilities in science. In order to assess the current state of what could be facilitative or inhibitory influences, a national online survey to which 1,088 K-12 science teachers responded was conducted. Mixed methods’ analyses suggest that science teachers receive little formal training and feel underprepared to teach students with disabilities. Results identify specific gaps in science teachers’ education, as well as attitudinal and institutional barriers that may inhibit students with disabilities’ success. However, science teachers remain highly receptive to training and collaboration. Implications for science teacher education are discussed.

50. Global Oil Spills and Oiled Wildlife Response Effort: Implications for Oil Spill Contingency Planning

Author: Kellie Pendoley, Ian Bellingham, Anna Lewis, Mitch Pearce, Andrew David Morgan, and Katherine Shaw-Brown
Subjects: Contingency plan, Environmental protection, business.industry, Oil spill, Fossil fuel, Wildlife, Environmental engineering, Environmental science, business
Abstract: Over the last century there has been a significant increase in the number and size of oil spills to the marine environment due to the global proliferation of oil and gas extraction as well as the number of tankers and other maritime transport infrastructure associated with increased production. Efforts have traditionally been focussed on containment and deflection of oil rather than responding to wildlife. The present study examines total oiled wildlife effort in response to maritime spills for 286 recorded globally. Between 1910 and 1961 there was an average of 1.23 ± 0.43 incidents per year, spilling an average of 114,062 ± 352,512 tonnes of oil per year. These averages increased to 3.83 ± 2.65 events with 123,277 ± 166,735 tonnes of oil spilt per year from 1962 to 1990, and again, from 1991 to 2012 to 6.50 ± 5.17 events with 164,299 ± 290,655 tonnes of oil spilt per year. Offshore platform and tanker spills have accounted for 37% and 27% of this total, respectively. Of the 104 recorded instances where wildlife interactions occurred (40%), spill volume was not related to the total number of animals caught, oiled or pre-emptively; however, it was related to the number of carcasses collected. A lack of planning for Oiled Wildlife Response (OWR) was identified as a contributing factor exacerbating the impact of a spill on wildlife and for resourcing a response. Inadequacies within operator and government contingency planning, to prepare for and sustain a wildlife response for extended periods, can be overcome by using a mobilisation model that integrates wildlife carer networks, government regulatory agencies and operator resourcing via an independent coordinating organisation consisting of a small group of personnel highly experienced and trained in maritime operations and marine science with access to a network of persons with experience in responding to wildlife and their handling, treatment and rehabilitation.
