Abstract: Purpose: To report on the Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy (SBRT) credentialing experience during the Phase III Ontario Clinical Oncology Group (OCOG) LUSTRE trial for stage I non-small cell lung cancer. Methods: Three credentialing requirements were required in this process: (a) An institutional technical survey; (b) IROC (Imaging and Radiation Oncology Core) thoracic phantom end-to-end test; and (c) Contouring and completion of standardized test cases using SBRT for one central and one peripheral lung cancer, compared against the host institution as the standard. The main hypotheses were that unacceptable variation would exist particularly in OAR definition across all centres, and that institutions with limited experience in SBRT would be more likely to violate per-protocol guidelines. Results: Fifteen Canadian centres participated of which 8 were new, and 7 were previously established (≥2 years SBRT experience), and all successfully completed surveys and IROC phantom testing. Of 30 SBRT test plans, 10 required replanning due to major deviations, with no differences in violations between new and established centres (p = 0.61). Mean contouring errors were highest for brachial plexus in the central (C) case (12.55 ± 6.62 mm), and vessels in the peripheral (P) case (13.01 ± 12.55 mm), with the proximal bronchial tree (PBT) (2.82 ± 0.78 C, 3.27 ± 1.06 P) as another variable structure. Mean dice coefficients were lowest for plexus (0.37 ± 0.2 C, 0.37 ± 0.14 P), PBT (0.77 ± 0.06 C, 0.75 ± 0.09 P), vessels (0.69 ± 0.29 C, 0.64 ± 0.31 P), and esophagus (0.74 ± 0.04 C, 0.76 ± 0.04 P). All plans passed per-protocol planning target volume (PTV) coverage and maximum/volumetric organs-at-risk constraints, although variations existed in dose gradients within and outside the target. Conclusions: Clear differences exist in both contouring and planning with lung SBRT, regardless of centre experience. Such an exercise is important for studies that rely on high precision radiotherapy, and to ensure that implications on trial quality and outcomes are as optimal as possible.

3. Deepest Limits on Scattered Light Emission from the Epsilon Eridani Inner Debris Disk with HST/STIS

Author: Sai Krishanth P. M., Ewan S. Douglas, Ramya M. Anche, Justin Hom, Kerri L. Cahoy, John H. Debes, Hannah Jang-Condell, Isabel Rebollido, Bin B. Ren, Christopher C. Stark, Robert Thompson, and Yinzi Xin

Abstract: Epsilon Eridani is one of the first debris disk systems detected by the Infrared Astronomical Satellite. However, the system has thus far eluded detection in scattered light with no components having been directly imaged. Its similarity to a relatively young solar system combined with its proximity makes it an excellent candidate to further our understanding of planetary system evolution. We present a set of coronagraphic images taken using the Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph coronagraph on the Hubble Space Telescope at a small inner working angle to detect a predicted warm inner debris disk inside 1″. We used three different postprocessing approaches—nonnegative matrix factorization (NMF), Karhunen–Loève Image Processing (KLIP), and classical reference differential imaging, to best optimize reference star subtraction—and find that NMF performed the best overall while KLIP produced the absolute best contrast inside 1″. We present limits on scattered light from warm dust, with constraints on surface brightness at 6 mJy as ^−2 at our inner working angle of 0.″6. We also place a constraint of 0.5 mJy as ^−2 outside 1″, which gives us an upper limit on the brightness for outer disks and substellar companions. Finally, we calculated an upper limit on the dust albedo at ω < 0.487.

Abstract: Purpose: Canadian radiation oncology (RO) trainees have experienced employment challenges after residency training. The present study was conducted to evaluate current employment trends and perform comparisons to prior reported assessments. Methods and Materials: A survey was administered to all 13 Canadian RO program directors requesting the employment status and location of their graduates during the past 3 years, and their perceptions on graduates’ employment challenges. Visa trainees were excluded. Findings were compared with surveys performed in 2014, 2016, and 2018. Results: The response rate from RO program directors was 100%. There were 77 graduates identified who completed their residency training between 2017 and 2020. All had known employment status and location. Two (17%) 2020 graduates, 16 (84%) 2019 graduates, 17 (81%) 2018 graduates, and 24 (100%) 2017 graduates had staff employment. Of the 59 graduates with staff positions, 86% were in Canada. Some graduates (28%) obtained staff or locum employment in a province other than their training program. The proportion of graduates obtaining staff positions 1 year after residency increased to 84% from 46%-48% in prior assessments. Most program directors (62%) did not perceive any difficulties with their graduates finding staff employment or trainees transferring to training programs in other disciplines owing to perceived workforce challenges. Conclusions: Compared with 3 prior employment outcome assessments, this study observed a higher proportion of graduates with staff positions in Canada, fewer total graduates, fewer graduates seeking staff employment or in fellowship positions, and a trend for fewer graduates seeking employment or fellowships abroad. These findings support the view that the Canadian RO job market continues to improve. Although employment challenges for newly certified, Canadian-trained radiation oncologists still exist, national corrective measures to regulate resident intake in 2011 appear to have had a positive effect on the employment outcomes of recent Canadian RO graduates.

Abstract: Summary: Background: Dexamethasone was the first intervention proven to reduce mortality in patients with COVID-19 being treated in hospital. We aimed to evaluate the adoption of corticosteroids in the treatment of COVID-19 in the UK after the RECOVERY trial publication on June 16, 2020, and to identify discrepancies in care. Methods: We did an audit of clinical implementation of corticosteroids in a prospective, observational, cohort study in 237 UK acute care hospitals between March 16, 2020, and April 14, 2021, restricted to patients aged 18 years or older with proven or high likelihood of COVID-19, who received supplementary oxygen. The primary outcome was administration of dexamethasone, prednisolone, hydrocortisone, or methylprednisolone. This study is registered with ISRCTN, ISRCTN66726260. Findings: Between June 17, 2020, and April 14, 2021, 47 795 (75·2%) of 63 525 of patients on supplementary oxygen received corticosteroids, higher among patients requiring critical care than in those who received ward care (11 185 [86·6%] of 12 909 vs 36 415 [72·4%] of 50 278). Patients 50 years or older were significantly less likely to receive corticosteroids than those younger than 50 years (adjusted odds ratio 0·79 [95% CI 0·70–0·89], p=0·0001, for 70–79 years; 0·52 [0·46–0·58], p80 years), independent of patient demographics and illness severity. 84 (54·2%) of 155 pregnant women received corticosteroids. Rates of corticosteroid administration increased from 27·5% in the week before June 16, 2020, to 75–80% in January, 2021. Interpretation: Implementation of corticosteroids into clinical practice in the UK for patients with COVID-19 has been successful, but not universal. Patients older than 70 years, independent of illness severity, chronic neurological disease, and dementia, were less likely to receive corticosteroids than those who were younger, as were pregnant women. This could reflect appropriate clinical decision making, but the possibility of inequitable access to life-saving care should be considered.

Abstract: Summary: We identify amino acid variants within dominant SARS-CoV-2 T cell epitopes by interrogating global sequence data. Several variants within nucleocapsid and ORF3a epitopes have arisen independently in multiple lineages and result in loss of recognition by epitope-specific T cells assessed by IFN-γ and cytotoxic killing assays. Complete loss of T cell responsiveness was seen due to Q213K in the A∗01:01-restricted CD8+ ORF3a epitope FTSDYYQLY207-215; due to P13L, P13S, and P13T in the B∗27:05-restricted CD8+ nucleocapsid epitope QRNAPRITF9-17; and due to T362I and P365S in the A∗03:01/A∗11:01-restricted CD8+ nucleocapsid epitope KTFPPTEPK361-369. CD8+ T cell lines unable to recognize variant epitopes have diverse T cell receptor repertoires. These data demonstrate the potential for T cell evasion and highlight the need for ongoing surveillance for variants capable of escaping T cell as well as humoral immunity.

8. Polarized harmonic mappings and optimal moving frames

Author: Serge Preston and Robert Thompson
Subjects: Science (General), Q1-390
Abstract: We introduce the notion of a polarized harmonic mapping M -> N of Riemannian manifolds and its infinitesimal analogue, a polarized harmonic connection. We study the integrability of these polarized harmonic connections when M is foliated by the action of a Lie group G. In the case that M is a Kahler manifold and G has dimension 1, the polarized harmonic connection is integrable and we obtain a polarized harmonic mapping M -> G, known as an optimal moving frame (or optimal G-frame). These ideas are illustrated using the dynamical system of N-point vortices in the plane.

9. Low Psychosine in Krabbe Disease with Onset in Late Infancy: A Case Report

Author: Camille S. Corre, Dietrich Matern, Joan E. Pellegrino, Carlos A. Saavedra-Matiz, Joseph J. Orsini, and Robert Thompson-Stone
Subjects: Krabbe disease, psychosine, newborn screening, Pediatrics, RJ1-570
Abstract: Krabbe disease (KD) is a rare inherited neurodegenerative disorder caused by a deficiency in galactocerebrosidase enzyme activity, which can present in early infancy, requiring an urgent referral for hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, or later in life. Newborn screening (NBS) for KD requires identification and risk-stratification of patients based on laboratory values to predict disease onset in early infancy or later in life. The biomarker psychosine plays a key role in NBS algorithms to ascertain probability of early-onset disease. This report describes a patient who was screened positive for KD in New York State, had a likely pathogenic genotype, and showed markedly reduced enzyme activity but surprisingly low psychosine levels. The patient ultimately developed KD in late infancy, an outcome not clearly predicted by existing NBS algorithms. It remains critical that psychosine levels be evaluated alongside genotype, enzyme activity levels, and the patient’s evolving clinical presentation, ideally in consultation with experts in KD, in order to guide diagnosis and plans for monitoring.

Abstract: We incorporate the new theory of equivariant moving frames for Lie pseudogroups into Vessiot’s method of group foliation of differential equations. The automorphic system is replaced by a set of reconstruction equations on the pseudogroup jets. The result is a completely algorithmic and symbolic procedure for finding both invariant and noninvariant solutions of differential equations admitting a symmetry group.

21. Combination of interventions can change students’ epistemological beliefs

Author: Calvin S. Kalman, Mandana Sobhanzadeh, Robert Thompson, Ahmed Ibrahim, and Xihui Wang
Subjects: Special aspects of education, LC8-6691, Physics, QC1-999
Abstract: This study was based on the hypothesis that students’ epistemological beliefs could become more expertlike with a combination of appropriate instructional activities: (i) preclass reading with metacognitive reflection, and (ii) in-class active learning that produces cognitive dissonance. This hypothesis was tested through a five-year study involving close to 1000 students at two institutions, in four physics courses. Using an experimental design, data from student interviews, writing product assessments, and the Discipline-Focused Epistemological Beliefs Questionnaire (DFEBQ) we demonstrate that the beliefs of novice science learners became more expertlike on 2 of the 4 DFEBQ factors. We conclude that a combination of an activity that gets students to examine textual material metacognitively (Reflective Writing) with one or more types of in-class active learning interventions can promote positive change in students’ epistemological beliefs.

Subjects: CAQDAS, HyperQual, qualitative research, analysis of qualitative data, reporting data analysis, beginning teachers, teacher appraisal, Social sciences (General), H1-99
Abstract: This paper focuses on the interrelationship between the mechanical and conceptual aspects of qualitative data analysis. The first part of the paper outlines the support role a computer program, HyperQual2, plays in the mechanical analysis process. The second part of the paper argues that the most important aspect of analysis in any research endeavour is conceptual in nature. It provides a "snapshot" of the in-depth analysis of one interview protocol. The metaphor "snapshot" is apt because the intention is to capture the "essence" of the analysis process. Such a focused approach is one way of reporting and making transparent the qualitative research process. It can be used as a framework so that readers of the research are better able to judge the fidelity of the results of the final analysis. URN: urn:nbn:de:0114-fqs0202252

Abstract: Narrative approaches to assessment provide meaningful and valid representations of trainee performance. Yet, narratives are frequently perceived as vague, nonspecific and low quality. To date, there is little research examining factors associated with narrative evaluation quality, particularly in undergraduate medical education. The purpose of this study was to examine associations of faculty- and student-level characteristics with the quality of faculty member's narrative evaluations of clerkship students.The authors reviewed faculty narrative evaluations of 50 students' clinical performance in their inpatient medicine and neurology clerkships, resulting in 165 and 87 unique evaluations in the respective clerkships. The authors evaluated narrative quality using the Narrative Evaluation Quality Instrument (NEQI). The authors used linear mixed effects modelling to predict total NEQI score. Explanatory covariates included the following: time to evaluation completion, number of weeks spent with student, faculty total weeks on service per year, total faculty years in clinical education, student gender, faculty gender, and an interaction term between student and faculty gender.Significantly higher narrative evaluation quality was associated with a shorter time to evaluation completion, with NEQI scores decreasing by approximately 0.3 points every 10 days following students' rotations (p = .004). Additionally, women faculty had statistically higher quality narrative evaluations with NEQI scores 1.92 points greater than men faculty (p = .012). All other covariates were not significant.The quality of faculty members' narrative evaluations of medical students was associated with time to evaluation completion and faculty gender but not faculty experience in clinical education, faculty weeks on service, or the amount of time spent with students. Findings advance understanding on ways to improve the quality of narrative evaluations which are imperative given assessment models that will increase the volume and reliance on narratives.

Abstract: In 2014 the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education modified adult training requirements for child neurology certification to reduce the number of hospital-based rotations and require inclusion of outpatient clinic and electives. We aimed to identify how these training requirements are being met and explored its impact on residents.A REDCap questionnaire surveying resident opinion on impact of adult training on resident education, professional development, and wellness was e-mailed to 79 program directors in the United States for distribution in 2020. Results were analyzed using descriptive statistics and t test calculations. Qualitative analysis of narrative responses involved theme identification.A total of 116 child neurology residents participated (30.2% PGY-3, 37.9% PGY-4, and 31.9% PGY-5 residents); 20.9% had all adult rotations during the PGY-3 year, and 79.1% had adult rotations spread throughout residency. Adult training had a small positive impact on resident autonomy and a negative impact on resident wellness regardless of training structure. However, residents with 12 months of adult training during PGY-3 year scored worse on burnout, mood changes, work-life balance, and social well-being (P 0.05). Some themes identified included residents feeling unsafe due to lack of supervision, that education was not prioritized, and that adult patient care lacked relevance to long-term career goals.Adult neurology training was found to negatively affect child neurology resident wellness, with a larger negative impact when adult training was completed in 12 months during PGY-3 year. Other identified areas where change could be implemented include improving feelings of resident safety and prioritizing quality and relevance of education.

35. Exploring Mechanisms and Predicting Reactivity of Transition Metal-Catalyzed and Photocatalyzed Radical and Polar Organic Transformations

Author: Martin, Robert Thompson and Martin, Robert Thompson
Abstract: The creation of protocols to form novel C-C and C-heteroatom bonds has been the primary goal of organic synthesis since its inception. Chemists have long harnessed both radical and polar reactivities, often as complementary paths to construct these bonds to yield more complex molecular architectures. However, compared to the development of synthetic protocols, development of mechanistic models and enriching of mechanistic understanding of many organic reactions has been limited. Computational studies into the mechanisms of organic transformations provide an avenue by which mechanisms of reactions can be better understood and new patterns of reactivity can be predicted. Herein, quantum-mechanical computational methods e.g., density functional theory (DFT) have been employed in the pursuit of understanding the mechanisms of a series of radical and polar reaction schemes. Specifically, DFT calculations were employed to understand the mechanism and origins of selectivity of two nickel(I)-catalyzed olefin functionalizations. These studies demonstrate a catalyst-control scheme by which selectivity can be induced by the steric properties of the catalyst (Chapter 1). Following this work, two photocatalytic transformations which yield difluorinated products were studied thoroughly with computations. First, a synthesis of difluorinated lactone derivatives revealed a long-lived radical intermediate and motivated mechanistic experiments to isolate this radical. Next, a synthesis of difluorinated oxindole derivatives demonstrated the ability of arenethiols to act as photocatalysts (Chapter 2). Then, computations were used to rigorously explore a copper-catalyzed reductive cross-coupling of imine and allenamides. Specifically, computations were employed to explore the mechanism of the transformation and the origins of stereoselectivity and the divergent formation of urea and diamine products (Chapter 3). Finally, two computational investigations into the mechanisms of transformat

Abstract: Background and ObjectivesWe aimed to identify how child neurology and neurodevelopmental disabilities residency program directors (PDs) implemented revised Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education requirements for adult neurology training for child neurology residents. Before 2014, the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology certification for child neurology required an adult year, with no specified rotation requirements. At that point, programs scheduled a median of 10 months of adult neurology rotations during the third postgraduate year (PGY-3). In 2014, the adult neurology requirements were modified to include 6 months of hospital-based, 3 months of outpatient, and 3 months of other elective (may include neurophysiology, neuropathology, and/or neuroradiology) rotations. However, the effects of these changes on child neurology residency training nationally have not been characterized.MethodsA 16-item online survey was emailed to 79 PDs in the United States in September 2020. Survey responses were collected from September to October 2020. Descriptive statistics were calculated, and associations with departmental affiliation (pediatrics/neurology), graduate medical education (GME) funding source, and program size were compared using nonparametric tests.ResultsThe response rate was 72% (53 pediatric neurology, 3 neurodevelopmental disabilities). The median adult months per year of training were as follows: 9 PGY-3, 2 PGY-4, and 1 PGY-5. Nearly all had both hospital inpatient and consult rotations with night and/or weekend shifts; 57% included neurocritical care and 36% epilepsy monitoring units. 48% of programs scheduled night and weekend shifts (including 25% that scheduled 24-hour calls) for residents on outpatient and elective rotations. Few programs required adult neurophysiology (20%), neuropathology (32%), or neuroradiology (25%). Programs with children's hospital GME funding (for either 2 or 3 years) tended to be larger (p = 0.008). Otherwise, departmental affiliation, funding source, and program size were not associated with rotation timing.DiscussionMost child neurology residency programs still consolidate adult training in the PGY-3 year and often schedule additional hospital shifts during outpatient and elective months. However, there is a small shift toward adult neurology rotations occurring in the PGY-4 and PGY-5. Departmental affiliation, funding source, and program size do not consistently affect training practices. Few programs mandate adult neurophysiology, neuropathology, or neuroradiology rotations.

Abstract: A quality assurance study was completed following the implementation of a standardized opioid prescribing and education protocol post cesarean delivery. The primary goal was to determine the need for a policy on postpartum opioid prescribing practices and whether the protocol worked. There was a decrease in the number of tablets provided post intervention and no statistically significant maternal or neonatal readmissions for suspected opioid toxicity or pain control. Combination prescribing of Tylenol 3 and/or tramadol and another opioid occurred in both groups. Our results show a need for concise guidelines regarding opioid prescribing following cesarean delivery.

43. A History of Securities Law in the Supreme Court

Author: A.C. Pritchard and Robert Thompson
Abstract: This book explores how the Supreme Court has made (and remade) securities law. It covers the history of the federal securities laws from their inception during the Great Depression, relying on the justices’ conference notes, internal memoranda, and correspondence to shed light on how they came to their decisions and drafted their opinions. That history can be divided into five periods that parallel and illustrate key trends of the Court’s jurisprudence more generally. The first saw the administration of Franklin Delano Roosevelt—aided by his filling of eight seats on the Court—triumph in its efforts to enact the securities laws and establish their constitutional legitimacy. The arrival of Roosevelt’s justices brought an end to the Court’s long-standing hostility to the regulation of business. These new justices, all committed to social control of finance, ushered in an era of deference to the SEC’s expertise that lasted through the 1940s and 1950s. The 1960s brought an era of judicial activism—and further expansion—by the Warren Court, with purpose taking precedence over text in statutory interpretation. The arrival of Lewis F. Powell, Jr., in 1972, brought a sharp reversal. Powell’s leadership of the Court in securities law produced a counterrevolution in the field and an end to the SEC’s long-winning streak at the Court. Powell’s retirement in 1987 marked the beginning of the final period of this study. In the absence of ideological consensus or strong leadership, the Court’s securities jurisprudence meandered, taking a random walk between expansive and restrictive decisions.

44. Iron acetate solution prepared from steel wool and vinegar for ebonizing wood

Author: Robert Thompson
Subjects: Biomaterials
Abstract: Woodworkers darken wood by reacting iron in solution with tannins in the wood to form blue–black phenolate complexes, a process called ebonizing. According to the literature, the darkness and color are controlled by the tannin concentration (higher, darker) and the counterion of iron (acetate, darker). Iron acetate is not readily available, so woodworkers prepare it in the woodshop by reacting steel wool and vinegar. This reaction was studied. Products were ferrous acetate Fe(CH3COO)2.4H2O (and H2) and subsequently basic iron acetate [Fe3O(C2H3O2) 6(H2O)3](CH3COO) by air oxidation, giving a red-colored solution. Both inorganic phosphate and air (O2) were required for maximal reaction rate. A volume of 85 mL of distilled white vinegar per gram of super fine (#0000) aged steel wool provided a final reaction mixture with fully dissolved steel and no precipitated products. Maximal darkening of cherry and red oak wood with minimal application of iron solution was attained by applying a 0.125 M iron acetate solution at a rate of 1 mL per 125 cm2 of wood surface. A protocol for creating and using an iron acetate ebonizing solution is described and was demonstrated to be a much-improved version of the one currently promoted in the woodworking literature.

45. Embedding electronic patient-reported outcome measures into routine care for patients with stage III MELanoma (ePROMs-MEL): protocol for a prospective, longitudinal, mixed-methods pilot study

Subjects: Quality of Life, Humans, Pilot Projects, General Medicine, Prospective Studies, Patient Reported Outcome Measures, Melanoma
Abstract: IntroductionThe benefits of patient-reported feedback, using questionnaires that allow patients to report how they feel and function without any interpretation from healthcare professionals, are well established. However, patient-reported outcomes measures (PROMs) are not routinely collected in patients with melanoma in Australia. The aim of this study is to evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of implementing electronic PROMs (ePROMs) into routine care from the perspectives of patients with stage III melanoma and their treating clinical team.Methods and analysisA minimum of 50 patients and 5 clinicians will be recruited to this prospective, longitudinal pilot study (ePROMs-MELanoma). The study uses a mixed-methods approach (quantitative PROMs questionnaires and end-of-study surveys with qualitative interviews) and commenced in May 2021 in surgical and medical melanoma clinics at two sites in metropolitan Sydney, Australia. The primary outcomes are measures of feasibility and acceptability, comprising descriptive questionnaire completion statistics, and proportion of patients who reported that these PROMs were easy to complete and measured items they considered important. Clinician and clinic staff views will be canvassed on the appropriateness of these PROMs for their patients, change in referral practice and uptake and incorporation into routine practice. Secondary aims include measurement of improvements in patients’ emotional and physical health and well-being, and utility of real-time data capture and clinician feedback. All participants will complete the Distress Thermometer and EQ-5D-5L questionnaires in the clinic using a tablet computer at baseline and two to three subsequent follow-up appointments. Participants who report a score of 4 or higher on the Distress Thermometer will be triaged to complete an additional three questionnaires: the QLQ-C30, Depression, Anxiety and Stress Scale and Melanoma Concerns Questionnaire-28. Results will be generated in real time; patients with psychosocial distress or poor quality of life will discuss possible referral to appropriate allied health services with their clinician. Thematic analysis of interviews will be conducted.Ethics and disseminationEthics approval obtained from St Vincent’s Hospital Human Research Ethics Committee on 19 September 2019 (2019/ETH10558), with amendments approved on 8 June 2022. Patient consent is obtained electronically prior to questionnaire commencement. Dissemination strategies will include publication in peer-reviewed journals and presentation at international conferences, tailored presentations for clinical societies and government bodies, organisational reporting through multidisciplinary meetings and research symposia for local clinicians and clinic staff, and more informal, lay reports and presentations for consumer melanoma representative bodies and patient participants and their families.Trial registration numberACTRN12620001149954.

Background: Most studies of immunity to SARS-CoV-2 focus on circulating antibody, giving limited insights into mucosal defences that prevent viral replication and onward transmission. We studied nasal and plasma antibody responses one year after hospitalisation for COVID-19, including a period when SARS-CoV-2 vaccination was introduced. Methods: In this follow up study, plasma and nasosorption samples were prospectively collected from 446 adults hospitalised for COVID-19 between February 2020 and March 2021 via the ISARIC4C and PHOSP-COVID consortia. IgA and IgG responses to NP and S of ancestral SARS-CoV-2, Delta and Omicron (BA.1) variants were measured by electrochemiluminescence and compared with plasma neutralisation data. Findings: Strong and consistent nasal anti-NP and anti-S IgA responses were demonstrated, which remained elevated for nine months (p < 0.0001). Nasal and plasma anti-S IgG remained elevated for at least 12 months (p < 0.0001) with plasma neutralising titres that were raised against all variants compared to controls (p < 0.0001). Of 323 with complete data, 307 were vaccinated between 6 and 12 months; coinciding with rises in nasal and plasma IgA and IgG anti-S titres for all SARS-CoV-2 variants, although the change in nasal IgA was minimal (1.46-fold change after 10 months, p = 0.011) and the median remained below the positive threshold determined by pre-pandemic controls. Samples 12 months after admission showed no association between nasal IgA and plasma IgG anti-S responses (R = 0.05, p = 0.18), indicating that nasal IgA responses are distinct from those in plasma and minimally boosted by vaccination. Interpretation: The decline in nasal IgA responses 9 months after infection and minimal impact of subsequent vaccination may explain the lack of long-lasting nasal defence against reinfection and the limited effects of vaccination on transmission. These findings highlight the need to develop vaccines that enhance nasal immunity. Funding: This study has been supported by ISARIC4C and PHOSP-COVID consortia.
