Background: Although recent studies indicate that the relationship between body mass index (BMI) and Alzheimer’s disease (AD) may differ by both sex and age of BMI measurement, little information is available on sex- or age-specific associations between BMI and AD neuropathologies. Objective: To examined whether sex-specific BMIs measured at different life-stages (in early adulthood, midlife, and late life) were associated with cerebral amyloid-β (Aβ) deposition and AD-signature region cortical thickness (AD-CT) in cognitively normal (CN) older adults. Methods: A total of 212 CN subjects aged 60–90 years (females 108, males 104), who participated in the Korean Brain Aging Study for Early Diagnosis and Prediction of Alzheimer’s Disease (KBASE), an ongoing prospective cohort study, were included. All participants underwent comprehensive clinical and neuropsychological assessments, [11C] Pittsburgh Compound B positron emission tomography, and brain magnetic resonance imaging. BMIs at different life stages were calculated. Multiple regression analyses were performed separately for either sex. Results: In males, lower early adulthood or midlife BMI was associated with greater cerebral Aβ deposition, but late life BMI was not. Lower midlife BMI was associated with reduced AD-CT, but the BMI in early adulthood and late life was not. In females, no significant association was observed between any lifetime BMI and Aβ deposition or AD-CT. Conclusion: Our results support a male-specific association between BMI prior to late life, and in vivo AD pathologies. Avoiding underweight status early in life may be important to prevent AD dementia in males, but not females.

Published: April 2020

BACKGROUND: Hydrogen storage using metal hydride (MH) offers various advantages so the global research and development using MH alloys keeps growing. OBJECTIVE: In this paper, we developed a new actuation system using temperature control of the MH module. METHODS: The actuation system consisted of an MH module, fan, mass flow controller (MFC), solenoid valve, actuator, and a temperature and pressure sensor. The MH module, two fans and temperature sensors were set for heating and cooling the MH power by electricity. Two MFCs and four pneumatic solenoid valves were used for controlling the direction and measuring hydrogen flow. Two actuators were used to evaluate performance of the MH alloy, and all the results were measured by LabVIEW software. Hydrogen was absorbed by the MH alloy by pressurizing at 1 MPa, and the absorbed hydrogen was desorbed using a vacuum pump. RESULTS: The temperature condition of the driving test was 20–50[Formula: see text]C. As the module was heated, it was confirmed that the actuator connected to the system was driven by the pressure of desorbed hydrogen. CONCLUSION: It is confirmed that the actuation system is suitable for the evaluation of characteristics of MH alloy. Future studies are planned to develop MH alloys and test the actual driving performance using this system.

Published: April 2020

BACKGROUND: Diagnostic quality of computed tomography (CT) images depends on numerous factors. Recently, two different modalities were introduced for coronary CT angiography (CCTA). OBJECTIVE: This study aims to compare the performance of 16 cm wide-coverage detector CT (WDCT) using the snapshot freeze technique with a new-generation dual-source CT (DSCT) with 66 ms temporal resolution for CCTA. METHODS: Total 101 patients with suspected coronary heart disease were enrolled. Of these, 50 and 51 patients were examined on WDCT and DSCT, respectively. CT values, image noise, signal-to-noise ratio, and contrast-to-noise ratio were measured. The image processing efficiency was recorded, followed by statistical comparison of diagnostic accuracy and radiation dose. RESULTS: Ninety-nine patients (98.02%) had satisfactory diagnostic image quality. DSCT was significantly better than WDCT in terms of quantitative image quality, image processing efficiency, and qualitative analysis ( P < 0.05). However, radiation dose was significantly lower on WDCT ( P < 0.05) as compared to DSCT. CONCLUSIONS: Image processing efficiency and image quality of CCTA was higher on DSCT compared to WDCT due to the limitation of maximal tube current of WDCT.
Association between use of urgent suspected cancer referral and mortality and stage at diagnosis: a 5-year national cohort study
Authors: Round Thomas , Gildea Carolynn , Ashworth Mark , Møller Henrik 
Published: April 2020

BackgroundThere is considerable variation between GP practices in England in their use of urgent referral pathways for suspected cancer.AimTo determine the association between practice use of urgent referral and cancer stage at diagnosis and cancer patient mortality, for all cancers and the most common types of cancer (colorectal, lung, breast, and prostate).Design and settingNational cohort study of 1.4 million patients diagnosed with cancer in England between 2011 and 2015.MethodThe cohort was stratified according to quintiles of urgent referral metrics. Cox proportional hazards regression was used to quantify risk of death, and logistic regression to calculate odds of late-stage (III/IV) versus early-stage (I/II) cancers in relation to referral quintiles and cancer type.ResultsCancer patients from the highest referring practices had a lower hazard of death (hazard ratio [HR] = 0.96; 95% confidence interval [CI] = 0.95 to 0.97), with similar patterns for individual cancers: colorectal (HR = 0.95; CI = 0.93 to 0.97); lung (HR = 0.95; CI = 0.94 to 0.97); breast (HR = 0.96; CI = 0.93 to 0.99); and prostate (HR = 0.88; CI = 0.85 to 0.91). Similarly, for cancer patients from these practices, there were lower odds of late-stage diagnosis for individual cancer types, except for colorectal cancer.ConclusionHigher practice use of referrals for suspected cancer is associated with lower mortality for the four most common types of cancer. A significant proportion of the observed mortality reduction is likely due to earlier stage at diagnosis, except for colorectal cancer. This adds to evidence supporting the lowering of referral thresholds and consequent increased use of urgent referral for suspected cancer.
