description: Purpose. This study introduces methods to conduct image-guided radiotherapy (IGRT) of the pelvis with either cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) or planar localization images by relying solely on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-based reference images.Material and methods. Feasibility of MRI-based reference images for IGRT was evaluated against kV CBCT (50 scans, 5 prostate cancer patients) and kV & MV planar (5 & 5 image pairs and patients) localization images by comparing the achieved patient position corrections to those obtained by standard CT-based reference images. T1/T2*-weighted in-phase MRI, Hounsfield unit conversion-based heterogeneous pseudo-CT, and bulk pseudo-CT images were applied for reference against localization CBCTs, and patient position corrections were obtained by automatic image registration. IGRT with planar localization images was performed manually by 10 observers using reference digitally reconstructed radiographs (DRRs) reconstructed from the pseudo-CTs and standard CTs. Quality of pseudo-DRRs against CT-DRRs was evaluated with image similarity metrics.Results. The SDs of differences between CBCT-to-MRI and CBCT-to-CT automatic gray-value registrations were ≤ 1.0 mm & ≤ 0.8° and ≤ 2.5 mm & ≤ 3.6° with 10 cm diameter cubic VOI and prostate-shaped VOI, respectively. The corresponding values for reference heterogeneous pseudo-CT were ≤ 1.0 mm & ≤ 0.7° and ≤ 2.2 mm & ≤ 3.3°, respectively. Heterogeneous pseudo-CT was the only type of MRI-based reference image working reliably with automatic bone registration (SDs were ≤ 0.9 mm & ≤ 0.7°). The differences include possible residual errors from planning CT to MRI registration. The image similarity metrics were significantly (p ≤ 0.01) better in agreement between heterogeneous pseudo-DRRs and CT-DRRs than between bulk pseudo-DRRs and CT-DRRs. The SDs of differences in manual registrations (3D) with planar kV and MV localization images were ≤ 1.0 mm and ≤ 1.7 mm, respectively, between heterogeneous pseudo-DRRs and CT-DRRs, and ≤ 1.4 mm and ≤ 2.1 mm between bulk pseudo-DRRs and CT-DRRs.Conclusion. This study demonstrated that it is feasible to conduct IGRT of the pelvis with MRI-based reference images.

description: Background. We aimed to investigate cancer-bereaved youths’ opinions and experiences of being told about a parent's imminent death from cancer and of barriers to this communication.Material and methods. This nationwide population-based survey included 622/851 (73%) youths (aged 18–26) who at age 13–16, 6–9 years earlier had lost a parent to cancer.Results. In total 595 of 610 (98%) of the participants stated that teenage children should be informed when the parent's death was imminent (i.e. a matter of hours or days, not weeks). 59% stated that they themselves had been told this, 37% by the parents, 7% by parents and healthcare professionals together and 8% by professionals only. Frequent reasons for why the teenager and parents did not talk about imminent death before loss were that one (n = 106) or both (n = 25) of the parents together with the teenage child had pretended that the illness was not that serious, or that none of the parents had been aware that death was imminent (n = 80). Up to a couple of hours before the loss, 43% of participants had not realized that death was imminent.Conclusion. In this population-based study virtually all youth who at ages 13–16 had lost a parent to cancer afterwards stated that teenagers should be told when loss is near, i.e. a matter of hours or days, not weeks. Many stated that they had not been given this information and few were informed by professionals, with implications for future improvements in end-of-life care of patients with teenage children.

description: Purpose. To report results from the five-year follow-up on a previously reported study using image-guided radiotherapy (IGRT) of localized or locally advanced prostate cancer (PC) and a removable prostate stent as fiducial.Material and methods. Patients with local or locally advanced PC were treated using five-field 3D conformal radiotherapy (3DRT). The clinical target volumes (CTV) were treated to 78 Gy in 39 fractions using daily on-line image guidance (IG). Late genito-urinary (GU) and gastro-intestinal (GI) toxicities were scored using the radiotherapy oncology group (RTOG) score and the common toxicity score of adverse events (CTC) score. Urinary symptoms were also scored using the international prostate symptom score (IPSS).Results. Median observation time was 5.4 year. Sixty-two of the 90 patients from the original study cohort were eligible for toxicity assessment. Overall survival, cancer-specific survival and biochemical freedom from failure were 85%, 96% and 80%, respectively at five years after radiotherapy. Late toxicity GU and GI RTOG scores ≥ 2 were 5% and 0%. Comparing pre- and post-radiotherapy IPSS scores indicate that development in urinary symptoms after radiotherapy may be complex.Conclusions. Prostate image-guided radiotherapy using a prostate stent demonstrated survival data comparable with recently published data. GU and GI toxicities at five-year follow-up were low and comparable to the lowest toxicity rates reported. These findings support that the precision of the prostate stent technique is at least as good as other techniques. IPSS revealed a complex development in urinary symptoms after radiotherapy.

description: Background. We compared target and normal tissue dosimetric indices between ultra-hypofractionated passively scattered proton radiotherapy and stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) in the definitive treatment of localized prostate cancer.Material and methods. Ten patients were treated definitively for localized prostate cancer with SBRT to a dose of 36.25 Gy in 5 fractions prescribed to a volume encompassing the prostate only. Dose-volume constraints were applied to the rectum, bladder, penile bulb, femoral heads, and prostatic and membranous urethra. Three-field passively scattered proton plans were retrospectively generated using target volumes from the same patients. Dosimetric indices were compared between the SBRT and proton plans using the Wilcoxon signed rank test.Results. All dose constraints were achieved using both ultra-hypofractionated passively scattered proton and SBRT planning. Proton plans demonstrated significant improvement over SBRT in mean dose delivered to the penile bulb (5.2 CGE vs. 11.4 Gy; p = 0.002), rectum (6.7 CGE vs. 10.6 Gy; p = 0.002), and membranous urethra (32.2 CGE vs. 34.4 Gy; p = 0.006) with improved target homogeneity resulting in a significant reduction in hot spots and volumes of tissue exposed to low doses of radiation. Compared to proton planning, SBRT planning resulted in significant improvement in target conformality with a mean index of 1.17 versus 1.72 (p = 0.002), resulting in a dose reduction to the volume of bladder receiving more than 90% of the PD (V32.6, 7.5% vs. 15.9%; p = 0.01) and mean dose to the left (7.1 Gy vs. 10.4 CGE; p = 0.004) and right (4.0 Gy vs. 10.9 CGE; p = 0.01) femoral heads.Conclusion. Target and normal tissue dose constraints for ultra-hypofractionated definitive radiotherapy of localized prostate cancer are readily achieved using both CK SBRT and passively scattered proton-based therapy suggesting feasibility of either modality.

description: Background. Well-specified and unambiguous treatment protocols are essential both for current practice and for the future development of radiation therapy. In order to provide assistance for writing good protocols, irrespective of treatment intention and complexity, up-to-date guidelines are highly desirable.Methods. We have analysed the radiotherapy work-flow, including clinical and physical aspects, such as preparatory imaging, treatment planning, delivery and evaluation, with the aim to outline a consistent framework covering the entire radiotherapy process.Results. Based on the analysis, a recipe-style template for specifying the description of the radiotherapy process has been designed. The template is written in a general format, which allows for modified phrasing, and should be customised for the specific clinical situation and diagnosis, as well as facility resources.Conclusions. The template can be used as a tool to ensure a consistent and comprehensive description of the radiotherapy section of clinical guidelines, care programmes and clinical trial protocols.

description: Background. External beam radiotherapy is an excellent treatment for patients with prostate cancer (PC). Assessing long-term radiotherapy-induced toxicity is important. We evaluated the impact of implementing different rectal dose volume constraints (DVC) on late rectal and urinary toxicity.Material and methods. Six hundred and thirty-seven PC patients were treated with high-dose intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) in the primary (median dose of 78 Gy to the prostate) or postoperative setting [median dose of 74 (adjuvant) and 76 Gy (salvage) to the prostatic bed]. Three groups were defined according to different DVC applied over time. The incidence of late rectal and urinary toxicity was evaluated. Three-year actuarial risk estimations of grade 2–3 rectal and urinary toxicity were calculated (Kaplan-Meier statistics).Results. Median follow-up was five years. Overall, the incidence of late grade 3 and 2 rectal toxicity was 1% and 11%. The calculated three-year actuarial risk of developing late grade ≥ 2 rectal toxicity decreased from 16% to 7% and 5% for patients in Group 1, Group 2 and Group 3, respectively (p < 0.001). Respectively, 17 (4%) and 98 (24%) patients developed grade 3 and 2 late urinary toxicity in the primary setting. In the postoperative setting, 15 (6%) and 62 (26%) patients developed grade 3 and 2 urinary toxicity, respectively. The three-year actuarial risk of developing late ≥ grade 2 urinary toxicity in primary- and postoperative-treated patients was 22% and 23%, respectively. This was not significantly different between the three groups.Conclusion. The majority of patients developed no or only moderate rectal toxicity after high-dose IMRT for PC. Implementing different rectal DVC resulted in a significant decrease of late rectal toxicity without affecting urinary toxicity.

description: L'ensemble de ces notes ont été crée par John Baldwin lors d'une de ses premières périodes de résidence à Paris. Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.
Les données ainsi que les images des fiches sont accessibles sur le site Internet à l'adresse suivante : http://studium-baldwin.lamop.fr/.
Les transcriptions des fiches ont été effectuées par des étudiants de Paris 1 Panthéon - Sorbonne mais elles n'ont pas été corrigées par la suite.

title: Developing shared understandings of multi-agency working with adults who self-neglect
Creators: name: Aspinwall-Roberts, E
Publisher: name: Liverpool John Moores University
Year: 2022

description: The Care Act 2014 imposes a duty on local authorities to make statutory safeguarding enquiries when they suspect that an adult with care and support needs is self-neglecting. The Act also imposes a duty on local authorities and relevant partners, such as health and housing, to work in partnership. However, safeguarding adult reviews and government ombudsman investigations have shown a consistent failure of agencies to work together on cases involving self-neglect. The aim of this research is to develop an understanding of how multi-agency working in self-neglect cases can be improved, whilst respecting the autonomy of service users who self-neglect. This research applies the methodology of professionalising action research in a new setting, that of multi-agency working in the public sector. It is the first study to include the views and input of the full range of agencies who might typically work with people who self-neglect. Following a pilot project, fifteen different professional groups from two local authorities in the North of England were identified, who work with people who are self-neglecting. More than 30 group interviews were carried out with these staff in the problem-sensing phase of the action research, to identify priorities for change. Subsequently, two multi-agency workshops were held in each local authority, involving a total of 120 staff from the various agencies, to identify how change could be implemented. The research provides important insights into how practitioners assess the effectiveness of working together in this complex and demanding area of practice. A key message from the research is the extent of the disarray in multi-agency working, and the research extends the discourse on multi-agency working in four main areas of difficulty; inter-agency conflict, inter-agency communication, professional role understanding, and achieving change in multi-agency working. New findings in the research challenge assumptions about how practitioners from a wide range of agencies operationalise the Mental Capacity Act 2005 in relation to people who self-neglect. Overall, rich insights into working practices emerge, and the author gives recommendations for changing and improving multi-agency working with people who self-neglect. Furthermore, using a professionalising action research approach allowed solutions to be identified by participants, which have begun to be translated into practice.

description: Background. To safely optimize target volumes using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for uterine cervical cancer radiation therapy, MRI findings need to be validated. The aim of this study was to correlate pre-operatively acquired MRI and surgical specimen imaging for uterine cervical cancer patients using deformable image registration and quantify gross tumor volume (GTV) delineation discrepancies.Material and methods. For 16 retrospectively selected early-stage uterine cervical cancer patients, the cervix-uterus structure, uterine cavity and the GTV were delineated on 2D pathology photos after macroscopic intersection and corresponding pre-operatively acquired T2-weighted 2D sagittal MR images. Segmentations of pathology photos and MR images were simultaneously registered using a three-step multi-image registration strategy. The registration outcome was evaluated by the Dice similarity coefficient (DSC) and the surface distance error (SDE). In addition, GTV expansions within the cervix-uterus structure needed to obtain 95% GTV coverage were determined.Results. After three-step multi-image registration, the median DSC and median SDE were 0.98 and 0.4 mm (cervix-uterus) and 0.90 and 0.4 mm (uterine cavity), respectively. The average SDE around the GTV was 0.7 mm (range, 0.1 mm – 2.6 mm). An underestimation of MRI-based GTV delineations was found when no margin was applied, indicated by a mean GTV coverage of 61%. To obtain 95% GTV coverage for 90% of the patients, a minimum 12.0 mm margin around MRI-based GTVs was needed.Conclusion. The presented three-step multi-image registration strategy was suitable and accurate to correlate MRI and pathology data for uterine cervical cancer patients. To cover the pathology-based GTV, a margin of at least 12.0 mm around GTV delineations on T2-weighted MRI is needed.

After approval of bevacizumab in Germany in 2005 for the treatment of unresectable advanced or refractory colorectal cancer (CRC), this observational cohort study was initiated to assess the efficacy and safety of bevacizumab with various chemotherapy regimen in patients with metastatic CRC (mCRC).Material and methods. To facilitate enrolment of a typical mCRC population, eligibility criteria were minimised. Choice of chemotherapy regimen was at the physicians’ discretion, but influenced by current registration status. Predefined endpoints were treatment characteristics, response rate, progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS) and adverse events assessed as potentially related to bevacizumab treatment. Patients were followed for up to four years.Results. In total 1777 eligible patients were enrolled at 261 sites from January 2005 to June 2008. Median age: 64 years (range 19–100); male 62%; ECOG performance status 0–1/≥ 2 89%/11%. Chemotherapy choice was fluoropyrimidine (FU) 12%, FU/oxaliplatin 18%, FU/irinotecan 64%, no chemotherapy concurrent to bevacizumab 2% and other 4%. Best investigator-assessed response rate was 60% (complete response 10%, partial response 51%). Median PFS was 10.2 months and median OS was 24.8 months.Conclusions. The efficacy and safety profile of bevacizumab in this population of mCRC patients with different chemotherapy regimens is consistent with that observed in other patient registries/non-randomised trials and also corresponds well with data from similar treatment arms of phase III trials.

description: We consider various modeling levels for spatially homogeneous chemical reaction systems, namely the chemical master equation, the chemical Langevin dynamics, and the reaction-rate equation. Throughout we restrict our study to the case where the microscopic system satisfies the detailed-balance condition. The latter allows us to enrich the systems with a gradient structure, i.e. the evolution is given by a gradient-flow equation. We present the arising links between the associated gradient structures that are driven by the relative entropy of the detailed-balance steady state. The limit of large volumes is studied in the sense of evolutionary Γ-convergence of gradient flows. Moreover, we use the gradient structures to derive hybrid models for coupling different modeling levels.

description: L'ensemble de ces notes ont été crée par John Baldwin lors d'une de ses premières périodes de résidence à Paris. Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.
Les données ainsi que les images des fiches sont accessibles sur le site Internet à l'adresse suivante : http://studium-baldwin.lamop.fr/.
Les transcriptions des fiches ont été effectuées par des étudiants de Paris 1 Panthéon - Sorbonne mais elles n'ont pas été corrigées par la suite.

description: Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), as well as their sulfur (S-PAHs), oxygen (O-PAHs), and nitrogen (N-PAHs) analogs were evaluated in the fumes of asphalt samples produced in Brazilian refineries. The fumes were generated using a laboratory-constructed device for extraction and collection (DEC). Two previously published methodologies for PAHs and S-PAHs evaluation by high-performance liquid chromatography with diode array detection (HPLC-DAD) were employed, together with a new methodology for O and N-PAHs. A total of 54 compounds were assessed. The samples included 31 compounds within the scope of this study, and the emissions were highly dependent upon the heating temperature and asphalt source.

description: Background. In the context of dose painting by numbers delivered with intensity-modulated radiotherapy, the robustness of dose distributions against geometric uncertainties can be ensured by robust optimization. As robust optimization is seldom available in treatment planning systems (TPS), we propose an alternative method that reaches the same goal by modifying the heterogeneous dose prescription (based on 18FDG-PET) and guarantees coverage in spite of systematic and random errors with known standard deviations Σ and σ, respectively.Material and methods. The objective was that 95% of all voxels in the GTVPET received at least 95% of the prescribed dose despite geometric errors. The prescription was modified by a geometric dilation of αΣ for systematic errors and a deconvolution by a Gaussian function of width σ for random errors. For a 90% confidence interval, α = 2.5. Planning was performed on a TomoTherapy system, such that 95% of the voxels received at least 95% of the modified prescription and less than 5% of the voxels received more than 105% of the modified prescription. The applicability of the method was illustrated for two head-and-neck tumors.Results. Systematic and random displacements larger than αΣ and σ degraded coverage. Down to 62.8% of the points received at least 95% of prescribed dose for the largest considered displacements (5 mm systematic translation and 3 mm standard deviation for random errors). When systematic and random displacements were smaller than αΣ and σ, no degradation of target coverage was observed.Conclusions. The method led to treatment plans with target coverage robust against geometric uncertainties without the need to incorporate these in the optimizer of the TPS. The methodology was illustrated for head-and-neck cancer but can be potentially extended to all treatment sites.

description: The accurate and sensitive determination of tyrosine is of paramount value. In this work, we reported the synthesis and characterization of a new nanohybrid composed of silver nanoparticles and hollow carbon nanospheres (Ag/HMCS) for the amperometric sensing of tyrosine. The Ag/HMCS nanohybrid was used to modify electrodes and to fabricate an amperometric sensor for tyrosine at a working potential of 450 mV in aqueous 0.1 M phosphate buffer at pH 7.0. Under optimal conditions, the sensor determined tyrosine from 0.08 to 100 μM with a detection limit of 0.02 μM.

description: A simple method for the determination of 19 types of phthalate acid ester plasticizers in raw textile solid waste has been developed by employing ultrasonic extraction coupled with gas chromatography – tandem mass spectrometry (GC-MS/MS). The evaluation of the plasticizers in several textile solid wastes showed that the levels were high, especially dimethylglycol phthalate. The extraction solvent, ultrasonic time, and ultrasonic temperature were optimized. Hexane was adopted as the extraction solvent, and ultrasonic extraction was performed at 20 °C for 30 min. A linear relationship from 0.02 to 1000 ng/mL was obtained with correlation coefficients(r) greater than 0.996. The limits of quantitation were from 0.08 to 30.70 µg/L based upon a signal-to-noise ratio (S/N) of 10. The recoveries were from 90.1% to 108.9% and the relative standard deviation between 0.78% and 9.43%. The method can be used for rapid screening and quantitative analysis of textile solid waste due to the simple, sensitive, and accurate assay.
