Abstract: The prediction of a difficult cholecystectomy has traditionally been based on certain pre-operative clinical and imaging factors. Most of the previous literature reported small patient cohorts and have not used an objective measure of operative difficulty. The aim of this study was to develop a pre-operative score to predict difficult cholecystectomy, as defined by a validated intra-operative difficulty grading scale. Two cohorts from prospectively maintained databases of patients who underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy were analysed: the CholeS Study (8755 patients) and a single surgeon series (4089 patients). Factors potentially predictive of difficulty were correlated to the Nassar intra-operative difficulty scale. A multivariable binary logistic regression analysis was then used to identify factors that were independently associated with difficult laparoscopic cholecystectomy, defined as operative difficulty grades 3 to 5. The resulting model was then converted to a risk score, and validated on both internal and external datasets. Increasing age and ASA classification, male gender, diagnosis of CBD stone or cholecystitis, thick-walled gallbladders, CBD dilation, use of pre-operative ERCP and non-elective operations were found to be significant independent predictors of difficult cases. A risk score based on these factors returned an area under the ROC curve of 0.789 (95% CI 0.773–0.806, p

Abstract: A reliable system for grading operative difficulty of laparoscopic cholecystectomy would standardise description of findings and reporting of outcomes. The aim of this study was to validate a difficulty grading system (Nassar scale), testing its applicability and consistency in two large prospective datasets.Patient and disease-related variables and 30-day outcomes were identified in two prospective cholecystectomy databases: the multi-centre prospective cohort of 8820 patients from the recent CholeS Study and the single-surgeon series containing 4089 patients. Operative data and patient outcomes were correlated with Nassar operative difficultly scale, using Kendall's tau for dichotomous variables, or Jonckheere-Terpstra tests for continuous variables. A ROC curve analysis was performed, to quantify the predictive accuracy of the scale for each outcome, with continuous outcomes dichotomised, prior to analysis.A higher operative difficulty grade was consistently associated with worse outcomes for the patients in both the reference and CholeS cohorts. The median length of stay increased from 0 to 4 days, and the 30-day complication rate from 7.6 to 24.4% as the difficulty grade increased from 1 to 4/5 (both p 0.001). In the CholeS cohort, a higher difficulty grade was found to be most strongly associated with conversion to open and 30-day mortality (AUROC = 0.903, 0.822, respectively). On multivariable analysis, the Nassar operative difficultly scale was found to be a significant independent predictor of operative duration, conversion to open surgery, 30-day complications and 30-day reintervention (all p 0.001).We have shown that an operative difficulty scale can standardise the description of operative findings by multiple grades of surgeons to facilitate audit, training assessment and research. It provides a tool for reporting operative findings, disease severity and technical difficulty and can be utilised in future research to reliably compare outcomes according to case mix and intra-operative difficulty.

Abstract: Background The ability to accurately predict operative duration has the potential to optimise theatre efficiency and utilisation, thus reducing costs and increasing staff and patient satisfaction. With laparoscopic cholecystectomy being one of the most commonly performed procedures worldwide, a tool to predict operative duration could be extremely beneficial to healthcare organisations. Methods Data collected from the CholeS study on patients undergoing cholecystectomy in UK and Irish hospitals between 04/2014 and 05/2014 were used to study operative duration. A multivariable binary logistic regression model was produced in order to identify significant independent predictors of long (> 90 min) operations. The resulting model was converted to a risk score, which was subsequently validated on second cohort of patients using ROC curves. Results After exclusions, data were available for 7227 patients in the derivation (CholeS) cohort. The median operative duration was 60 min (interquartile range 45–85), with 17.7% of operations lasting longer than 90 min. Ten factors were found to be significant independent predictors of operative durations > 90 min, including ASA, age, previous surgical admissions, BMI, gallbladder wall thickness and CBD diameter. A risk score was then produced from these factors, and applied to a cohort of 2405 patients from a tertiary centre for external validation. This returned an area under the ROC curve of 0.708 (SE = 0.013, p 90 min increasing more than eightfold from 5.1 to 41.8% in the extremes of the score. Conclusion The scoring tool produced in this study was found to be significantly predictive of long operative durations on validation in an external cohort. As such, the tool may have the potential to enable organisations to better organise theatre lists and deliver greater efficiencies in care.

Abstract: Background The aim was to describe the management of benign gallbladder disease and identify characteristics associated with all-cause 30-day readmissions and complications in a prospective population-based cohort. Methods Data were collected on consecutive patients undergoing cholecystectomy in acute UK and Irish hospitals between 1 March and 1 May 2014. Potential explanatory variables influencing all-cause 30-day readmissions and complications were analysed by means of multilevel, multivariable logistic regression modelling using a two-level hierarchical structure with patients (level 1) nested within hospitals (level 2). Results Data were collected on 8909 patients undergoing cholecystectomy from 167 hospitals. Some 1451 cholecystectomies (16·3 per cent) were performed as an emergency, 4165 (46·8 per cent) as elective operations, and 3293 patients (37·0 per cent) had had at least one previous emergency admission, but had surgery on a delayed basis. The readmission and complication rates at 30 days were 7·1 per cent (633 of 8909) and 10·8 per cent (962 of 8909) respectively. Both readmissions and complications were independently associated with increasing ASA fitness grade, duration of surgery, and increasing numbers of emergency admissions with gallbladder disease before cholecystectomy. No identifiable hospital characteristics were linked to readmissions and complications. Conclusion Readmissions and complications following cholecystectomy are common and associated with patient and disease characteristics.

Abstract: Background The aims of this prospective population-based cohort study were to identify the patient and hospital characteristics associated with emergency cholecystectomy, and the influences of these in determining variations between hospitals. Methods Data were collected for consecutive patients undergoing cholecystectomy in acute UK and Irish hospitals between 1 March and 1 May 2014. Potential explanatory variables influencing the performance of emergency cholecystectomy were analysed by means of multilevel, multivariable logistic regression modelling using a two-level hierarchical structure with patients (level 1) nested within hospitals (level 2). Results Data were collected on 4744 cholecystectomies from 165 hospitals. Increasing age, lower ASA fitness grade, biliary colic, the need for further imaging (magnetic retrograde cholangiopancreatography), endoscopic interventions (endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography) and admission to a non-biliary centre significantly reduced the likelihood of an emergency cholecystectomy being performed. The multilevel model was used to calculate the probability of receiving an emergency cholecystectomy for a woman aged 40 years or over with an ASA grade of I or II and a BMI of at least 25·0 kg/m2, who presented with acute cholecystitis with an ultrasound scan showing a thick-walled gallbladder and a normal common bile duct. The mean predicted probability of receiving an emergency cholecystectomy was 0·52 (95 per cent c.i. 0·45 to 0·57). The predicted probabilities ranged from 0·02 to 0·95 across the 165 hospitals, demonstrating significant variation between hospitals. Conclusion Patients with similar characteristics presenting to different hospitals with acute gallbladder pathology do not receive comparable care.

18. Electrochemical carbon dioxide concentrator subsystem development

Author: Koszenski, E. P, Heppner, D. B, and Bunnell, C. T
Subjects: Man/System Technology And Life Support
Abstract: The most promising concept for a regenerative CO2 removal system for long duration manned space flight is the Electrochemical CO2 Concentrator (EDC), which allows for the continuous, efficient removal of CO2 from the spacecraft cabin. This study addresses the advancement of the EDC system by generating subsystem and ancillary component reliability data through extensive endurance testing and developing related hardware components such as electrochemical module lightweight end plates, electrochemical module improved isolation valves, an improved air/liquid heat exchanger and a triple redundant relative humidity sensor. Efforts included fabrication and testing the EDC with a Sabatier CO2 Reduction Reactor and generation of data necessary for integration of the EDC into a space station air revitalization system. The results verified the high level of performance, reliability and durability of the EDC subsystem and ancillary hardware, verified the high efficiency of the Sabatier CO2 Reduction Reactor, and increased the overall EDC technology engineering data base. The study concluded that the EDC system is approaching the hardware maturity levels required for space station deployment.

This study sought to determine the maximum tolerated dose and principal toxicities of this agent and to characterize its pharmacokinetic behavior. Methods: Patients were required to have adequate bone marrow, renal and hepatic function. DX-52-1 was administered by i.v. continuous infusion over a 6-h period each week for four consecutive weeks followed by a 2-week rest period, which constituted one cycle of treatment. Results: Initial dose levels were 3, 6, and 10 mg/m2. An intermediate dose level of 8 mg/m2 was added after acceptable toxicity was observed at the 6 mg/m2 dose level, but dose-limiting toxicities, including life-threatening ones, were seen at the 10 mg/m2 dose level in all three patients. The maximum tolerated dose (MTD) was subsequently determined to be 6 mg/m2. Because a clear pattern of toxicities was not initially evident, a larger than usual number of additional patients (16) were enrolled at the MTD to better distinguish toxicities due to the study drug from those secondary to the patients' underlying malignancies. Even at the MTD, the drug was poorly tolerated, with gastrointestinal toxicities (abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting and increased liver function tests) predominating and dose-limiting. Pharmacokinetic studies revealed that the mean maximum plasma concentration of DX-52-1 in patients evaluated at the MTD (138.8±59.3 ng/ml, n=19) was considerably lower than the concentrations required for cytostatic or cytotoxic activity against sensitive human tumor cell lines in vitro. Further, the weekly dose intensity of the most efficacious treatment schedule identified during in vivo antitumor efficacy studies was 60 times greater than the 6 mg/m2 weekly dose tolerated by cancer patients. None of the 33 patients participating in this study, including the 22 patients evaluated at the MTD, had any response to treatment. Conclusion: Given the poor tolerability, the inability to achieve drug levels necessary to inhibit in vitro or in vivo tumor growth, and the lack of any responses in our study, DX-52-1, as given by this schedule, does not appear to warrant further investigation in phase II studies.

Abstract: Introduction: A preliminary analysis of our double high-dose chemotherapy with stem cell rescue (HD-SCR) clinical trial for breast cancer, and preclinical cross-resistant studies, suggested that melphalan (M) adversely affected response to subsequent chemotherapy, i.e., that the sequence of alkylating agents (AAs) might affect response. We, therefore, constructed and examined preclinical models to determine whether prior exposure to M, in fact, adversely affected response to other therapy.Purpose: The purpose of the study was to determine whether the sequence of AAs, specifically the prior use of M, adversely affected response to subsequent treatment.Methods: The methods employed were the following: (1) Human tumor cell lines rendered resistant by in vitro sequential exposure to five different AAs were developed. The resistant cell lines were examined for cross-resistance to alkylating and other agents. (2) In vivo studies in the p388 mouse leukemia for resistance and cross-resistance among the AAs. (3) In vivo studies of the effect of sequence of AAs on response in mice bearing EMT6 breast cancer. (4) The double transplant model was developed in the mouse and the sequence of high-dose AAs was studied. (5) Biochemical and reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) studies of the various resistant tumor cell lines.Results: (1) The in vitro human tumor cells resistant to M were cross-resistant in 57% of tests to other AAs. In contrast, resistance for other AAs crossed to other agents in only 10 to 20% of tests. (2) The in vivo studies of p388 indicated that resistance to M commonly crossed to other AAs and many non-AAs. (3) The results for the mouse breast cancer (EMT6) studies of the sequence of AAs again indicated that M employed first markedly reduced responsiveness to subsequent treatment, particularly with AAs. (4) The double transplant model: again, M first markedly reduced response to other agents. (5) The in vitro resistant human tumor cell lines, particularly the breast cancer cell line MCF7, were found to contain high concentrations of glutathione S1 transferase gamma, which is consistent with that mechanism being responsible for resistance.Conclusion: The sequence of alkylating agent treatment may substantially influence response. Melphalan, particularly, produces resistance that commonly crosses to the other AAs. Mechanistic studies indicate significant changes in glutathione S1 transferase, a known mechanism for broadly based resistance to AAs. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

29. Atmospheric leaching of oil sands fly ash from Syncrude and Suncor

Author: Holloway, P., Etsell, T., and Bunnell, C.
Abstract: The leaching behavior of fly ash samples from Syncrude’s and Suncor’s oil sands upgrading operations were investigated by testing various lixiviants on a collection of ash samples. Each reagent resulted in a different range of vanadium extractions, which allowed the reagents to be ranked by increasing severity (water < Na2CO3< NaOH < H2S04). Of these reagents, water and Na2CO3were selective to vanadium, while leaching with NaOH and H2S04dissolved significant amounts of Al, Fe, Ni, Si or Ti in addition to V. The vanadium extractions from the Suncor and Syncrude ashes varied significantly from sample to sample, with maximum extractions of 56% for the Suncor ash and 75% for the Syncrude ash. For all the Suncor ash samples and for one Syncrude ash sample, leaching of decarbonized ash resulted in lower vanadium extractions than the as-received ash for a given sample. This study also indicates that the leachable vanadium, which ranges from 40% to 75% of the total vanadium in the ash, is present in the fly ash entirely as pentavalent vanadium. Overall, the extractions from atmospheric leaching were quite low — even with the harshest reagent tested and longer leaching times — and the best extractions were only possible with poor selectivity to vanadium.

30. Primary Hemangioma of the Nasal Bones: Report of a Case

Author: BECK, FRED W., BUNNELL, C. W., and SWENSON, R. E.
Abstract: This is the fourth case of hemangioma of the nasal bones to be reported in the literature. The three previous cases were reported by Neivert and Bilchick1 in 1936, Bloom2 in 1954, and by Moore and Pearce3 in 1956.The first three cases were all in white females. This fourth one to be reported was in a white man. This probably has no real significance.We used a comparatively new type of material for filling in the defect. This was despeciated mandibular bone from a calf fetus as prepared and furnished by Tucker.4Fig. 1.—Frontal x-ray of nasal bones shows peculiar bulging of the bones.Fig. 2.—Lateral x-ray of nasal bones shows characteristic sunburst striated markings.To date there has been no indication of absorption of this material, and the cosmetic appearance is very good.Fig. 3.—Photograph of tumor exposed, in situ.Fig. 4.—Photograph of bed

Abstract: SN biopsy (SNB) has evolved rapidly during the past decade and has now become a standard of surgical care for patients with breast cancer. The primary purpose of SNB is to minimize patient morbidity from axillary staging, but SNB also presents research opportunities to further understand the role of the sentinel node in the natural history of breast cancer. We have attempted to highlight several issues regarding SN and its biopsy in this review, including:(1) Investigation of the optimal particle size for radiotracers. The success of SNB is, in large part, attributed to the particle size of radiolabeled tracers. Electron microscopy demonstrated significant accumulation of the tracer (tin colloid) in harvested SN, of which particle sizes were in the range of 100-150 nm. Therefore, this appeared to be a suitable particle size for SN identification. (2) Invention of a new gamma probe. A cord-and boxless handheld gamma probe was invented, which was more sensitive to radioactivity and involved a background subtraction function based on defined criteria. (3) Characterization of the immunologic response against tumor antigens. Fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) analyses were performed to determine the phenotypic characteristics of B cells and T cells in SN. They revealed an increase in B cells expressing co-stimulated molecules as antigen-presenting cells in SN, compared with non-SN. With respect to T cells, a heterogeneous pattern of naive and memory T cells (TCM) was demonstrated in SN, in contrast to homogeneous pattern with TCM in non-SN. These results may support the concept that B cells play a significant role in antigen presentation required for T cell activation. Studies are currently in progress to test these possibilities.

Abstract: Cytotoxic chemotherapy is important for treatment of women with hormone-insensitive or hormone-refractory advanced breast cancer. A variety of agents are effective, alone or in combination. The clinical activity and side effects of many agents, as well as principles for use of chemotherapy, are reviewed. Recent advances in chemotherapy for breast cancer include important studies on the role of dose-intensity, modifications of available agents to reduce side effects, and the availability of oral chemotherapeutics. Finally, the combination of chemotherapy with novel biological agents may improve outcomes for women with certain types of breast cancer. The growing availability of such biological therapies given in combination with chemotherapy may mean better survival in the future for women with advanced breast cancer.

Abstract: Purpose: To determine the response rate and toxicity profile of trastuzumab administered concurrently with weekly vinorelbine in women with HER2-overexpressing advanced breast cancer., Patients and Methods: Forty women with HER2-positive (+3 by immunohistochemistry, n = 30; +2 or positive, n = 10) breast cancer were enrolled onto a study of trastuzumab (4 mg/kg x 1, 2 mg/kg weekly thereafter) and vinorelbine (25 mg/m2 weekly, with dose adjusted each week for neutrophil count). Eighty-two percent of women had received prior chemotherapy as part of adjuvant (30%), metastatic (25%), or both (28%) treatment, including substantial portions of patients who had previously received either anthracyclines (20%), taxanes (15%), or both types (38%) of chemotherapy., Results: Responses were observed in 30 of 40 patients (overall response rate, 75%, conditional corrected 95% confidence interval, 57% to 89%). The response rate was 84% in patients treated with trastuzumab and vinorelbine as first-line therapy for metastatic disease, and 80% among HER2 +3 positive patients. High response rates were also seen in women treated with second- or third-line therapy, and among patients previously treated with anthracyclines and/or taxanes. Combination therapy was feasible; patients received concurrent trastuzumab and vinorelbine in 93% of treatment weeks. Neutropenia was the only grade 4 toxicity. No patients had symptomatic heart failure. Grade 2 cardiac toxicity was observed in three patients. Prior cumulative doxorubicin dose in excess of 240 mg/m2 and borderline pre-existing cardiac function were associated with grade 2 cardiac toxicity., Conclusion: Trastuzumab in combination with vinorelbine is highly active in women with HER2-overexpressing advanced breast cancer and is well tolerated.

48. Quality of life issues among women undergoing high-dose chemotherapy for breast cancer.

Author: Partridge AH, Bunnell CA, and Winer EP
Abstract: High-dose chemotherapy with autologous stem cell support for the treatment of breast cancer can have a profound effect on patients' quality of life (QOL). This article reviews findings from studies assessing QOL before, during, and after high-dose chemotherapy. The impact of high-dose therapy on overall QOL and specific aspects of QOL including physical functioning, symptoms, psychosocial/emotional and cognitive functioning, sexual functioning, and role functioning is considered. High-dose chemotherapy with stem cell transplant results in largely transient impairment of overall QOL and physical functioning, with subsequent improvement to baseline or better over time. Despite these encouraging global QOL findings, many patients continue to suffer considerable symptoms and concerns attributable to their transplant long after completion of the therapy. Additional research in this area is needed to optimize QOL for patients receiving high-dose chemotherapy.

Abstract: Purpose: To evaluate the safety and efficacy of weekly docetaxel in women with metastatic breast cancer., Patients and Methods: Twenty-nine women were enrolled onto a study of weekly docetaxel given at 40 mg/m(2)/wk. Each cycle consisted of 6 weeks of therapy followed by a 2-week treatment break, repeated until disease progression or removal from study for toxicity or patient preference. Fifty-two percent of patients had been previously treated with adjuvant chemotherapy; 21% had received prior chemotherapy for metastatic breast cancer, and 31% had previously received anthracyclines. All patients were assessable for toxicity; two patients were not assessable for response but are included in an intent-to-treat analysis., Results: Patients received a median of 18 infusions, with a median cumulative docetaxel dose of 720 mg/m(2). There were no complete responses. Twelve patients had partial responses (overall response rate, 41%; 95% confidence interval, 24% to 61%), all occurring within the first two cycles. Similar response rates were observed among subgroups of patients previously treated either with any prior chemotherapy or with anthracyclines. An additional 17% of patients had stable disease for at least 6 months. The regimen was generally well tolerated. There was no grade 4 toxicity. Only 28% of patients had any grade 3 toxicity, most commonly neutropenia and fatigue. Acute toxicity, including myelosuppression, was mild. Fatigue, fluid retention, and eye tearing/conjunctivitis became more common with repetitive dosing, although these side effects rarely exceeded grade 2. Dose reductions were made for eight of 29 patients, most often because of fatigue (n = 5)., Conclusion: Weekly docetaxel is active in treating patients with metastatic breast cancer, with a side effect profile that differs from every-3-weeks therapy.

Abstract: Three oral 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) therapies have been approved by the US Food and Drug Administration or are in development for the treatment of patients with breast cancer: capecitabine, UFT, and 5-FU/eniluracil. Capecitabine has been approved for breast cancer patients whose disease is paclitaxel-resistant, and either anthracycline-resistant or for whom further anthracycline use is not indicated. A response rate of 20% was observed in an open-label phase II trial of capecitabine in heavily pretreated patients with metastatic breast cancer. Diarrhea and hand-foot syndrome were the most frequently reported toxicities. In a randomized phase II study of capecitabine vs paclitaxel in breast cancer patients who had failed anthracyclines, response rates were 36% for capecitabine vs 21% for paclitaxel. Several phase II trials of 5-FU/eniluracil in breast cancer are ongoing. Preliminary response data from one of these trials on 31 patients with anthracycline- and taxane-resistant advanced breast cancer showed a 16% partial response rate. Grade 3-4 treatment-related toxicities included diarrhea (8%), nausea (3%), and granulocytopenia (3%). In Japan, UFT is widely used for the treatment of breast cancer in both the adjuvant and metastatic settings, though studies in the United States are just getting under way. A phase II trial conducted in Madrid, Spain evaluated the combination of UFT, methotrexate, and leucovorin as salvage therapy for breast cancer patients. The overall response rate was 38% among 21 patients, and diarrhea was the most common toxicity. Many questions remain unanswered about the optimal use of oral 5-FU agents in breast cancer. There seems little question that these agents have substantial activity and will find a place in the therapeutic armamentarium.
