Abstract

BACKGROUND: Previous studies indicate increased prevalences of suicidal ideation, suicide attempts, and completed suicide in Huntington's disease (HD) compared with the general population. This study investigates correlates and predictors of suicidal ideation in HD.METHODS: The study cohort consisted of 2106 HD mutation carriers, all participating in the REGISTRY study of the European Huntington's Disease Network. Of the 1937 participants without suicidal ideation at baseline, 945 had one or more follow-up measurements. Participants were assessed for suicidal ideation by the behavioural subscale of the Unified Huntington's Disease Rating Scale (UHDRS). Correlates of suicidal ideation were analyzed using logistic regression analysis and predictors were analyzed using Cox regression analysis.RESULTS: At baseline, 169 (8.0%) mutation carriers endorsed suicidal ideation. Disease duration (odds ratio [OR]=0.96; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.9-1.0), anxiety (OR=2.14; 95%CI: 1.4-3.3), aggression (OR=2.41; 95%CI: 1.5-3.8), a previous suicide attempt (OR=3.95; 95%CI: 2.4-6.6), and a depressed mood (OR=13.71; 95%CI: 6.7-28.0) were independently correlated to suicidal ideation at baseline. The 4-year cumulative incidence of suicidal ideation was 9.9%. Longitudinally, the presence of a depressed mood (hazard ratio [HR]=2.05; 95%CI: 1.1-4.0) and use of benzodiazepines (HR=2.44; 95%CI: 1.2-5.0) at baseline were independent predictors of incident suicidal ideation, whereas a previous suicide attempt was not predictive.LIMITATIONS: As suicidal ideation was assessed by only one item, and participants were a selection of all HD mutation carriers, the prevalence of suicidal ideation was likely underestimated.CONCLUSIONS: Suicidal ideation in HD frequently occurs. Assessment of suicidal ideation is a priority in mutation carriers with a depressed mood and in those using benzodiazepines.

Abstract

The cause of Huntington disease (HD) is a polyglutamine repeat expansion of more than 36 units in the huntingtin protein, which is inversely correlated with the age at onset of the disease. However, additional genetic factors are believed to modify the course and the age at onset of HD. Recently, we identified the V471A polymorphism in the autophagy-related gene ATG7, a key component of the autophagy pathway that plays an important role in HD pathogenesis, to be associated with the age at onset in a large group of European Huntington disease patients. To confirm this association in a second independent patient cohort, we analysed the ATG7 V471A polymorphism in additional 1,464 European HD patients of the "REGISTRY" cohort from the European Huntington Disease Network (EHDN). In the entire REGISTRY cohort we could not confirm a modifying effect of the ATG7 V471A polymorphism. However, analysing a modifying effect of ATG7 in these REGISTRY patients and in patients of our previous HD cohort according to their ethnic origin, we identified a significant effect of the ATG7 V471A polymorphism on the HD age at onset only in the Italian population (327 patients). In these Italian patients, the polymorphism is associated with a 6-years earlier disease onset and thus seems to have an aggravating effect. We could specify the role of ATG7 as a genetic modifier for HD particularly in the Italian population. This result affirms the modifying influence of the autophagic pathway on the course of HD, but also suggests population-specific modifying mechanisms in HD pathogenesis.

Abstract

Background: Huntington's disease (HD) is an autosomal dominant neurodegenerative disorder caused by the abnormal expansion of a CAG triplet repeat tract in the huntingtin gene. While the length of this CAG expansion is the major determinant of the age of onset (AO), other genetic factors have also been shown to play a modulatory role. Recent evidence suggests that neuroinflammations is a pivotal factor in the pathogenesis of HD, and that targeting this process may have important therapeutic ramifications. The human β-defensin 2 (hBD2)- encoded by DEFB4- is an antimicrobial peptide that exhibits inducible expression in astrocytes during inflammation and is an important regulator of innate and adaptive immune response. Therefore, DEFB4 may contribute to the neuroinflammatory processes observed in HD. Objective: In this study we tested the hypothesis that copy number variation (CNV) of the β-defensin region, including DEFB4, modifies the AO in HD. Methods and results: We genotyped β-defensin CNV in 490 HD individuals using the paralogue ratio test and found no association between β-defensin CNV and onset of HD. Conclusions: We conclude that it is unlikely that DEFB4 plays a role in HD pathogenesis.

Abstract

Our institutional protocol for twelve years has been to manage acute, isolated posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) ruptures non-operatively. The purpose of this study was to prospectively review the outcome of a consecutive series of active athletes managed conservatively for their acute PCL rupture. Care and review was supervised at a tertiary referral centre. 46 athletes presented with MRI confirmed acute PCL injuries within four weeks of their first consultation. Posteromedial, posterolateral and anterior cruciate ligament injuries or meniscal or chondral injuries mandating early intervention were excluded. Patients were managed by bracing and subsequently with a symptom and sign driven rehabilitation protocol. Individualisation took into account quadriceps inhibition, effusion, range of motion and patient comfort. The athletes were followed up until their return to sport and reviewed at a minimum of three years follow-up (range 3- 9 years, mean 5.2 years). 30 were reviewed with imaging in clinic, 12 by phone/activity/score review and 4 via club physiotherapist/ playing record. Mean return to play was 10.9 weeks at their previous level of sports performance. The athletes' biggest hurdle was sprinting, with many unable to reach maximum speed, despite excellent rehabilitation until a further six weeks of rehabilitation was completed. Over the follow-up period three athletes required arthroscopies for chondral and meniscal problems. On review, these may have been related to consequences of the initial injury / instability rather than new injuries. One athlete had posterolateral instability that was either present and initially missed or subsequently became clearer, requiring a PCL posterolateral corner reconstruction three years later. Medium term review suggests that non-operative management of acute isolated PCL injuries is associated with very good clinical outcomes and return to sport. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

Introduction: adductor muscle and tendon injuries are commonly seen in sport. A rare variant of this injury is the complete avulsion of the adductor complex as well as the pectineus and rectus abdominus amounting to a complete sleeve avulsion from the pubis. This is a severe injury that is increasingly recognised due to improved imaging and a lower diagnostic threshold. We describe the management of 12 athletes with this injury. Methods: all the injuries were prospectively collected onto our institutional pelvic sports injury database. This series summarises the outcome in 12 consecutive cases where surgery was undertaken after presentation with an acute avulsion (6-34 days). The procedure comprised anatomical reattachment of the avulsed tissues with mesh reinforcement of the inguinal wall in 7. The patients were all reviewed by an independent physiotherapist. Results: one patient sustained a superficial wound infection treated with antibiotics. Transient complaints of local numbness were common but all twelve sportsmen returned to high level sport (five elite) at an average of thirteen weeks (10-21 weeks).

Abstract

Avulsion of the hamstring origin is well documented in water-skiing, rugby, sprinting and hurdling and is increasingly seen in football, dancing, judo and bull-riding. The purpose of the study was to compare the outcomes of surgical intervention within 6 weeks of injury, 6 months post-injury and more than 6 months post-injury. This was a prospective review of case series from a tertiary referral centre. 112 athletes presenting with complete proximal hamstring tendon tears were confirmed on MRI. 63 were high-level athletes. All patients were surgically explored and repair of the torn tendons undertaken with the aim of returning to pre-injury activities and sport. All patients underwent an individualised rehabilitation protocol. All patients were followed up until return to sport. 108 patients returned to sport at an average of 16 weeks (range 12-32). Return to full sport was on average 6 weeks faster for early versus late repairs and was 10 weeks faster than for late reconstructions. There were 2 partial re-ruptures in those with delayed presentations - both those athletes retired from competitive sport but were recreationallyactive. 2 others recovered well but did not want to go back to their previous activity level. 12 athletes were delayed by sciatic nerve symptoms (2 early, 5 late, 5 very late) that required injection therapy and in two cases further exploration and nerve release/mobilisation. Surgical intervention is associated with good clinical outcomes and return to sport however delay in diagnosis can lead to prolonged morbidity and the increased likelihood of complications.

Abstract

Objective: To evaluate the feasibility of recruiting participants diagnosed with atrial fibrillation (AF) taking oral anticoagulation therapies (OATs) and recently experiencing a bleed to collect health-related quality of life (HRQoL) information., Design: Observational feasibility study. The study aimed to determine the feasibility of recruiting participants with minor and major bleeds, the most appropriate route for recruitment and the appropriateness of the patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) selected for collecting HRQoL information in AF patients, and the preferred format of the surveys., Setting: Primary care, secondary care and via an online patient forum., Participants: The study population was adult patients (≥18) with AF taking OATs who had experienced a recent major or minor bleed within the last 4 weeks., Primary and Secondary Outcome Measures: Primary outcomes - PROMs: EuroQol 5 Dimensions-5 Levels, Perception of Anticoagulant Treatment Questionnaire, part 2 only (part 2), atrial fibrillation effect on quality of life. Secondary outcomes - Location of bleed, bleed severity, current treatment, patient perceptions of HRQoL in relation to bleeding events., Results: We received initial expressions of interest from 103 participants. We subsequently recruited 32 participants to the study-14 from primary care and 18 through the AF forum. No participants were recruited through secondary care. Despite 32 participants consenting, only 26 initial surveys were completed. We received follow-up surveys from 11 participants (8 primary care and 3 AF forum). COVID-19 had a major impact on the study., Conclusions: Primary care was the most successful route for recruitment. Most participants recruited to the study experienced a minor bleed. Further ways to recruit in secondary care should be explored, especially to capture more serious bleeds., Trial Registration Number: The study is registered in the Clinicaltrials.gov database, NCT04921176., Competing Interests: Competing interests: HAH leads this independent research which was funded by Pfizer and Bristol Myers Squibb.

Abstract

Introduction: Healthcare systems face rising demand and unsustainable cost pressures. In response, health policymakers are adopting Value-Based Health Care (VBHC), targeting available resources to achieve the best possible patient outcomes at the lowest possible cost and actively disinvesting in care of low-value. This requires the evaluation of longitudinal clinical and patient reported outcome measures (PROMs) at an individual-level and population-scale, which can create significant data challenges. Achieving this through routinely collected electronic health record (EHR) data-linkage could facilitate the implementation of VBHC without an unacceptable data burden on patients or health systems and release time for higher-value activities., Objectives: Our study tested the ability to report an international, patient-centred outcome dataset (ICHOM-IBD) using only anonymised individual-level population-scale linked electronic health record (EHR) data sources, including clinical and patient-reported outcomes, in a cohort of patients with moderate-to-severe ulcerative colitis (UC), receiving biopharmaceutical therapies ("biologics") in a single, publicly funded, healthcare system., Results: We identified a cohort of 17,632 patients with UC in Wales and a cohort from two Health Boards of 447 patients with UC receiving biologics. 112 of these patients had completed 866 condition-specific PROMs during their biologics treatment. 44 out of 59 (74.6%) items in the ICHOM-IBD could be derived from routinely collected data of which a primary care source was essential for eight items and desirable for 21., Conclusions: We demonstrated that it is possible to report most but not all the ICHOM-IBD outcomes using routinely collected data from multiple sources without additional system burden, potentially supporting Value-Based Health Care implementation with population data science. As digital collection of PROMs and use of condition-specific registries grow, greater utility of this approach can be anticipated. We have identified that the availability of longitudinal primary and secondary care data linked with PROMs is essential for this to be possible., Competing Interests: Statement on conflicts of interest: Swansea University is in receipt of funding from Pfizer UK which supports a programme of activities that is led by HL. AA, JW, and ABH have no conflicts to declare.

Abstract

Background: Oral anticoagulation therapies (OATs) are often prescribed in conjunction with medications to restore normal heart rate rhythm which can limit the risk of an atrial fibrillation (AF) related stroke and systemic thromboembolism. However, they are associated with the serious side effect of bleeding. Both clinically relevant nonmajor bleeding (CRNMB) and major bleeding while anticoagulated are believed to have a significant impact on patient quality of life (QoL). There is currently limited research into the effect bleeding has on QoL. The aim of this study is to evaluate the feasibility of identifying and recruiting patients diagnosed with AF, who are taking OATs and have recently experienced a bleed and collecting information on their QoL., Methods: We will recruit a minimum of 50 patients to this cross-sectional, observational study. We will recruit from general practices, secondary care, and through an online AF forum. We will ask participants to complete three validated patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs), EQ5D, AFEQT, and PACT-Q, approximately 4 weeks following a bleed and again 3 months later. We will randomly select a subset of 10 participants (of those who agree to be interviewed) to undergo a structured interview with a member of the research team to explore the impact of bleeding on their QoL and to gain feedback on the three PROMs used. We will undertake a descriptive analysis of the PROMs and demographic data. We will analyse the qualitative interviews thematically to identify key themes., Discussion: We aim to establish if it is possible to recruit patients and use PROMs to collect information regarding how patient QoL is affected when they experience either a clinically relevant non-major bleed (CRNMB) or major bleed while taking OATs for the management of AF. We will also explore the appropriateness, or otherwise, of the three identified PROMs for assessing quality of life following a bleed., Proms: Three PROMs were selected following a literature review of similar QoL studies and using the COnsensus-based Standards for the selection of health Measurement INstruments (COSMIN) checklist for comparison. A review of the current literature produced no suitable validated PROM to record QoL experiences in patients who have been diagnosed with AF and have experienced a bleed while anticoagulated. As such, the EQ5D, AFEQT, and PACT-Q (part 2) were deemed most appropriate for use in this feasibility study., Trial Registration: The trial has been adopted onto the NIHR Portfolio (ID no. 47771) and registered with www., Clinicaltrials: gov (no. NCT04921176) retrospectively registered in June 2021., (© 2022. The Author(s).)

Abstract

Objectives: The aim was to outline the challenges of implementing outcomes-based contracts (OBCs) in Europe., Methods: A scoping review was conducted, building on the searches of a previous systematic review and updating them for December 2017 until May 2021. The combined results were screened, based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. All identified studies published in the English language that described specific OBC schemes for medicines in European countries were included. Insights into the challenges of OBCs were extracted and analysed to develop a conceptual framework., Results: Ten articles from the previous systematic review matched our inclusion criteria, along with 14 articles from electronic searches. Analysis of these 24 articles and classification of the challenges revealed that there are multiple barriers that must be overcome if OBCs that benefit all stakeholders are going to be adopted widely across Europe. These challenges were grouped according to five key themes: negotiation framework; outcomes; data; administration and implementation; and laws and regulation., Conclusions: If the promise of OBCs is to be fully realised in Europe, there remain major challenges that need to be overcome by all stakeholders working in partnership. The overlapping and interconnected nature of these challenges highlights the complexity of OBC arrangements., (© 2021. The Author(s).)

Abstract

Reported pin site infection rates in Kirschner wire fixation in the hand and wrist vary from 2% to 35%. In our unit we follow a strict pin site management protocol adapted from the Russian Ilizarov Scientific Centre. This study aims to identify if our current protocol reduces the incidence of pin site infection in hand and wrist surgery, and improves wire survival rates, to a level where exposed wires can be used safely. A retrospective review of 200 patients, treated with 369 percutaneous wires, in our hand surgery department over a 6-year period was carried out. Nine patients (4.5%) were diagnosed with a pin site infection with a wire survival rate of 99.5%.In our unit using our current protocol, results support the safe use of exposed wires with appropriate pin site care initiated in theatre. Adherence to this protocol allows wires to remain in-situ throughout treatment with minimal complications. Level of evidence: IV.

Abstract

In this paper, we propose a realistic model for gas distribution of an advanced municipal wastewater treatment works and through minimisation of the total cost of gas distribution we perform retrospective optimisation (RO) using historical plant data. This site is the first in the UK with a mixed operational strategy for biomethane produced on site: to burn in combined heat and power (CHP) engines to create electricity, burn in steam boilers for onsite steam use or inject the biomethane into the National Grid. In addition, natural gas can be imported to make up shortfalls in biomethane if required. Implemented using a novel mixed integer linear programming (MILP) approach, to ensure a fast and robust solution, our results indicate the plant operated optimally within accepted tolerance 98% of the time. However, improving plant robustness (such as reducing unexpected breakdown incidents) could yield a significant increase in gas revenue of 7.8%.

Abstract

Inadequate levels of vitamin D may lead to poor performance in professional dancers. Therefore, dietary supplementation may be essential in this population. This longitudinal pilot study to a randomized controlled trial assessed dancer compliance with self-directed oral vitamin D supplementation. Seventy-one dancers, 41 females and 30 males with a mean age of 31.1 years, were recruited from The Royal Ballet, London. Baseline serum 25(OH)D levels were measured and dancers were interviewed, examined, and provided with oral supplements for the winter period, November 2011 to March 2012. Dancers with normal serum 25(OH)D levels were provided with maintenance supplements (1,000 IU/ day) and those with insufficient or deficient serum 25(OH)D levels were given a loading dose of 60,000 IU weekly for 2 and 6 weeks, respectively. Serum 25(OH) D levels were measured at 1 and 2 years and dancers were sampled for compliance with instructions. Mean compliance during loading and maintenance was 86% and 50%, respectively. Mean serum 25(OH)D levels at start and end of the study period were 79.3 ± 31.6 nmol/L and 78.68 ± 19.8 nmol/L, respectively. Only one-third of dancers with insufficient (N = 5) and deficient (N = 5) serum vitamin D levels improved to normal values. It is concluded that professional ballet dancers demonstrate good compliance with self-directed loading doses of vitamin D supplementation but poor compliance with maintenance doses. Poor maintenance compliance may have accounted for the low rates of serum vitamin D level improvement among dancers with insufficient or deficient levels.

Abstract

Background: Achilles tendinopathy is a common pathology that is considered difficult to treat. At a time of austerity in the NHS it is essential to have carefully designed pathways that are monitored in terms of cost and effectiveness. However, a paucity of evidence exists for what the "best value" dedicated "joined up" pathway of care is for this difficult condition., Objectives: Design, implement and evaluate the impact of a new therapist lead pathway for Tendon- Achilles Pain (TAP).  METHODS: Process mapping, driver diagrams, stakeholder analysis and a series of Plan-Do-Study-Act cycles were used to design and implement TAP. To assess the impact of TAP, data was compared on whole system measures for 46 patients treated with referral to the traditional service (without TAP) and 46 patients managed according to the newly designed pathway (with TAP). A cost analysis was also conducted., Results: A quality improvement approach led to the successful design and implementation of a therapist lead TAP. The impact of TAP included positive effects on patient satisfaction, a decrease in duplication of treatments, investigations and inappropriate reviews with consultants. No safety concerns were found. TAP was also £44,000 cheaper per annum than the previous service., Conclusion: Collaboration between orthopaedic and therapy services has resulted in a standardised pathway of care for patients with an Achilles tendinopathy.  It has removed unwanted variation, provided an opportunity to monitor the outcomes of treatments and resulted in decreased cost for the health board., (Copyright © 2018.
