description: The prognostic significance of the systemic inflammatory response index (SIRI) in patients with cancer receiving programmed cell death 1 (PD-1)/PD-1 ligand 1 (PD-L1) immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) has been widely investigated; however, the results have been conflicting. As such, the present meta-analysis aimed to analyze the precise significance of the SIRI in predicting prognosis in patients with cancer undergoing ICI therapy. A comprehensive literature search of the Web of Science, PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library databases for relevant studies, published from inception to April 25, 2024, was performed. The SIRI was analyzed for its prognostic utility in patients undergoing ICI therapy by calculating combined hazard ratios (HRs) and corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Six studies comprising 1133 patients were included in the analysis. Pooled data revealed that a higher SIRI was significantly associated with poor overall survival (OS) (HR 1.96 [95% CI 1.55–2.47]; p < 0.001) and progression-free survival (PFS) (HR 1.41 [95% CI 1.19–1.67]; p < 0.001) for patients who underwent PD-1/PD-L1 ICI treatment. Subgroup analysis revealed that SIRI was markedly associated with dismal OS and PFS, independent of sample size, cut-off value, and survival analysis (p < 0.05). The findings were verified to be robust against publication bias and sensitivity analyses. In summary, an elevated SIRI was significantly associated with OS and PFS in patients with cancer undergoing PD-1/PD-L1 ICI treatment. SIRI may a candidate indicator for predicting the prognosis of patients undergoing ICI therapy. To our knowledge, this meta-analysis is the first to analyze the utility of the SIRI in predicting the prognosis of patients with cancer undergoing ICI therapy. Pooled data demonstrated that a higher SIRI was significantly associated with OS and PFS in patients with cancer undergoing PD-1/PD-L1 ICI treatment. SIRI may be a candidate indicator for predicting the prognosis of patients undergoing ICI therapy.

description: Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) is characterized by unilateral or bilateral ventricular enlargement and reduced ventricular systolic function, with or without heart failure. In previous studies, we found that a history of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) or chronic bronchitis is a high risk factor for DCM combined with pulmonary hypertension (PH). Therefore, we propose that the comorbidity of COPD or chronic bronchitis will increase the cardiogenic mortality of patients with DCM. Data were collected from patients with DCM who were admitted to The First Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou University of Chinese Medicine from October 2008 to April 2020. The primary endpoint was cardiac death. Multivariable Cox regression analyses were employed to assess the associations between the comorbidities COPD or chronic bronchitis with the study endpoints. Different adjusting models were used to adjust for potential confounders. A total of 305 DCM patients were ultimately enrolled, among whom 46 patients had COPD or chronic bronchitis. The median follow-up was 50 months. The rate of cardiac death in the COPD or chronic bronchitis group was significantly greater than that in the non-COPD or nonchronic bronchitis group (p < 0.001). The associations between comorbid COPD or chronic bronchitis and cardiac death remained robust after eliminating the possible effects of confounders. After grouping by PH, the risk difference was mainly derived from the intermediate- or high-probability PH group. Comorbid COPD or chronic bronchitis increased the risk of cardiac death among DCM patients with an intermediate or high PH probability.

Material examined: USA: ARKANSAS: Marion Co.: Forest Trail Ridge Cave, 5-vi-04, M.E. Slay, E. Frank, J. Terry.
Remarks. This species was described from caves in Iowa and Minnesota (Christiansen 1966), so the occurrence in Arkansas is intriguing. Although P. dubius may only be a geographic variant of P. pygmaeus (Christiansen 1966, Christiansen & Bellinger 1998), there is sufficient morphological differentiation to designate them as a separate species. Additionally, they were collected from the same cave, Forest Trail Ridge Cave, which provides support for a separate status of the species.

description: Adelatelecrinus new genus
Atelecrinus: AH Clark 1912: 152.— Hartlaub 1912:480 –481 (part).—AH Clark 1918:262, 266–268 (part).— Clark and Clark 1967:817 –819 (part).
Diagnosis. A genus of Atelecrinidae with centrodorsal hollow and thin-walled, closely joined to basal ring or slightly separated interradially by narrow gap or slit; central cavity diameter ≥0.6 of basal diameter; adoral rim of centrodorsal with 5 hollow, interradial buttresses that open adorally as deep, ring-shaped pits (Figure 7 d). Cirrus sockets in 10 columns with moderately developed aborally-projecting lateral fulcral tubercles triangular in side view; cirri (when known) tapering to a point with no opposing spine. Externally visible portion of each basal flat or slightly arched, weakly swollen interradially if at all, with lateral portions parallel-sided or tapering, and ends contiguous midradially (Figures 7 a, 8); sometimes reduced, triangular and separated midradially (Figure 7 b, c). Aboral surface of basals with featureless, central depression, and with adorally curved and distally expanded pair of interior projections (Figure 7 e). Radial cavity with delicate aboral calcareous deposit. Most proximal pinnule on IIbr15–16.
Type species. Atelecrinus sulcatus AH Clark, 1912.
Other included species. Adelatelecrinus vallatus new species.
Etymology. From the Greek adelos, meaning obscure, unknown, unseen, and the generic name Atelecrinus.
Remarks. Some specimens of species in this genus are externally indistinguishable from Atelecrinus in having a close suture between centrodorsal and basal ring (Figures 4, 6, 7a, c, 8). However, most exhibit a narrow interradial gap or slit between the centrodorsal and basals (Figure 7 b) not found in Atelecrinus. Adelatelecrinus shares with Paratelecrinus (described below) distinctive deep interradial pits in the centrodorsal rim (Figure 7 d), which separate both from Atelecrinus. However, Adelatelecrinus lacks the complex articular facet on the aboral surface of the basal ossicles characteristic of Paratelecrinus (Compare figures 3d and 7e).

description: Introduction: Adverse effects of opioids are common among older individuals, and undertreatment as well as overuse can be an issue. Epidemiological data on opioid use in older individuals are available, but scarce in hospitalized patients.Aims: The aim of this study is to examine the one-day prevalence of opioid use among older inpatients and identify the factors associated with both opioid use and dosage.Materials and methods: One-day cross-sectional study with data collected from geriatric units across 14 Belgian hospitals. The primary focus of the study is to assess the prevalence of opioid use and dosage, along with identifying associated factors. To achieve this, a multiple binary logistic regression model was fitted for opioid use, and a multiple linear regression model for opioid dose.Results: Opioids were used in 24.4% of 784 patients, of which 57.9% was treated with tramadol, 13.2% with oxycodone or morphine and 28.9% with transdermal buprenorphine or fentanyl. The odds for opioid use were 4.2 times higher in patients in orthogeriatric units compared to other patients (OR=4.2, 95% CI=2.50-7.05). The prevalence of opioid use was 34% higher in patients without dementia compared to patients with dementia (OR=0.66, 95% CI=0.46-0.95). The overall mean daily dosage was 14.07mg subcutaneous morphine equivalent. After adjustment for age, gender and dementia, dosage was only associated with type of opioid: the estimated mean opioid dose was 70% lower with tramadol (mean ratio=0,30,95% CI=0,23-0,39) and 67% lower with oxycodone and morphine (mean ratio=0,33, 95% CI=0,22-0,48) compared to transdermal buprenorphine and transdermal fentanyl.Conclusions: One in four patients received opioid treatment. It is not clear whether this reflects under- or overtreatment, but these results can serve as a benchmark for geriatric units to guide future pain management practices. The utilization of transdermal fentanyl and buprenorphine, resulting in higher doses of morphine equivalent, poses significant risks for side effects.

description: In liquid biopsy, mutation detection is primarily performed using cell-free DNA (cfDNA). However, the numerous advantages of extracellular vesicle (EV) DNA for mutation detection have gradually garnered the attention of researchers in recent years. This study aimed to compare the differences between EV DNA and cfDNA in mutation detection and explore the role of plasma androgen receptor (AR) mutations in the prognosis of prostate cancer (PCa). We compared the biological characteristics of plasma extracellular vesicle DNA (p-EV DNA) and cfDNA by capillary electrophoresis and concentration detection. Subsequently, we performed pan-oncogene-targeted sequencing in paired tissue and plasma samples from five patients with PCa to verify the feasibility of mutation detection using p-EV DNA and cfDNA. Further, we conducted AR mutation detection in expanded samples to compare the differences between EV DNA and cfDNA in mutation detection and to analyse their role in PCa. p-EV DNA fragments were larger than plasma cell-free DNA (p-cfDNA) fragments; however, there was no significant difference in their concentrations in the plasma of patients with PCa. Feasibility analysis revealed that major mutations associated with PCa detected in tissue samples could be identified in both p-EV DNA and p-cfDNA. Advantage comparison found that, although cfDNA could detect more mutations, AR mutations in EV DNA were more strongly associated with a poor prognosis of PCa than cfDNA. Mutation detection using either EV DNA or cfDNA is both feasible in PCa liquid biopsies, and EV DNA AR mutations have an advantage in prognostic assessment for PCa. This study lays the foundation for future research on EV DNA-related biomarkers.

description: Modeling visual saliency in graphical user interfaces (GUIs) allows to understand how people perceive GUI designs and what elements attract their attention. One aspect that is often overlooked is the fact that computational models depend on a series of design parameters that are not straightforward to decide. We systematically analyze how different design parameters affect scanpath evaluation metrics using a state-of-the-art computational model (DeepGaze++). We particularly focus on three design parameters: input image size, inhibition-of-return decay, and masking radius. We show that even small variations of these design parameters have a noticeable impact on standard evaluation metrics such as DTW or Eyenalysis. These effects also occur in other scanpath models, such as UMSS and ScanGAN, and in other datasets such as MASSVIS. Taken together, our results put forward the impact of design decisions for predicting users' viewing behavior on GUIs.

description: This study aimed to identify the prevalence and distribution of high-risk human papillomavirus (HR-HPV) types among Kazakhstani women with abnormal cervical cytology. A cross-sectional study was performed from May 2019 to June 2020. Cervical samples were collected from women in the different regions of Kazakhstan. A total of 316 patients’ samples were analysed for HR-HPV using real-time multiplex PCR. Cervical cytology abnormalities were reported according to the Bethesda classification. HPV detection by cytology showed a statistically significant association with HPV status and the number of HPV infection types (p < .05). Among women with abnormal cervical cytology, 62.4% were positive for HPV infection of those 79.4% had low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions (LSIL), and 20.6% had high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions (HSIL). Among patients with LSIL, 77.4% had HPV16 and 58.8% were infected with HPV18. Among patients with HSIL, 41.2% had HPV18 and 22.6% – HPV16. There is a high prevalence of HR-HPV types among Kazakhstani women with abnormal cervical cytology. The most identified types were HPV16, 18, 31, 33 and 52. There is an emergency need to implement an HPV vaccination program to prevent cervical lesion development.

description: Our recently developed Coronary Artery Tree description and Lesion EvaluaTion (CatLet) angiographic scoring system is unique in its description of the variability in the coronary anatomy, the degree of stenosis of a diseased coronary artery, and its subtended myocardial territory, and can be utilized to predict clinical outcomes for patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) presenting ≤12 h after symptom onset. The current study aimed to assess whether the Clinical CatLet score (CCS), as compared with CatLet score (CS), better predicted clinical outcomes for AMI patients presenting >12 h after symptom onset. CS was calculated in 1018 consecutive AMI patients enrolled in a retrospective registry. CCS was calculated by multiplying CS by the ACEF I score (age, creatinine, and left ventricular ejection fraction). Primary endpoint was major adverse cardiac events (MACEs) at 4-year-follow-up, a composite of cardiac death, myocardial infarction, and ischemia-driven revascularization. Over a 4-year follow-up period, both scores were independent predictors of clinical outcomes after adjustment for a broad spectrum of risk factors. Areas-under-the-curve (AUCs) for CS and CCS were 0.72(0.68–0.75) and 0.75(0.71–0.78) for MACEs; 0.68(0.63–0.73) and 0.78(0.74–0.83) for all-cause death; 0.73(0.68–0.79) and 0.83(0.79–0.88) for cardiac death; and 0.69(0.64–0.73) and 0.75(0.7–0.79) for myocardial infarction; and 0.66(0.61–0.7) and 0.63(0.58–0.68) for revascularization, respectively. CCS performed better than CS in terms of the above-mentioned outcome predictions, as confirmed by the net reclassification and integrated discrimination indices. CCS was better than CS to be able to risk-stratify long-term outcomes in AMI patients presenting >12 h after symptom onset. These findings have indicated that both anatomic and clinical variables should be considered in decision-making on management of patients with AMI presenting later.
