A 47-year-old postmenopausal woman with osteoporosis was treated with denosumab, which was discontinued due to side effects. She was therefore transitioned to a yearly intravenous infusion of zoledronic acid. An increase in bone turnover markers together with bone loss at the lumbar spine was observed before the second infusion, suggesting an overshooting of bone resorption due to denosumab discontinuation. On physical examination, the patient was restless and reported having lost about 10 kg since the last visit...

Here, we show that the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) provides a stronger constraint on equilibrium climate sensitivity (ECS), the global warming from increasing greenhouse gases, after accounting for temperature patterns. Feedbacks governing ECS depend on spatial patterns of surface temperature ("pattern effects"); hence, using the LGM to constrain future warming requires quantifying how temperature patterns produce different feedbacks during LGM cooling versus modern-day warming. Combining data assimilation reconstructions with atmospheric models, we show that the climate is more sensitive to LGM forcing because ice sheets amplify extratropical cooling where feedbacks are destabilizing...

BACKGROUND: Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) continues to cause significant hospitalizations and deaths in the United States. Its continued burden and the impact of annually reformulated vaccines remain unclear. Here, we present projections of COVID-19 hospitalizations and deaths in the United States for the next 2 years under 2 plausible assumptions about immune escape (20% per year and 50% per year) and 3 possible CDC recommendations for the use of annually reformulated vaccines (no recommendation, vaccination for those aged 65 years and over, vaccination for all eligible age groups based on FDA approval)...

Characterizing the relationship between disease testing behaviors and infectious disease dynamics is of great importance for public health. Tests for both current and past infection can influence disease-related behaviors at the individual level, while population-level knowledge of an epidemic's course may feed back to affect one's likelihood of taking a test. The COVID-19 pandemic has generated testing data on an unprecedented scale for tests detecting both current infection (PCR, antigen) and past infection (serology); this opens the way to characterizing the complex relationship between testing behavior and infection dynamics...

The global population consumes more seafood from aquaculture today than from capture fisheries and although the aquaculture industry continues to grow, both seafood sectors will continue to be important to the global food supply into the future. As farming continues to expand into ocean systems, understanding how wild populations and fisheries will interact with farms will be increasingly important to informing sustainable ocean planning and management. Using a spatially explicit population and fishing model we simulate several impacts from ocean aquaculture (i...

INTRODUCTION: The utility of serial liver stiffness measurements (LSM) to predict decompensation in compensated advanced chronic liver disease (cACLD) patients remains unclear. We aimed to validate whether comparing serial LSM is superior to using the current LSM to predict liver-related events (LRE) in cACLD patients. METHODS: In this retrospective analysis of an international registry, cACLD patients with serial LSM were followed up until index LRE. We compared the performance of both the dynamic LSM changes and the current LSM (LSMc ) in predicting LRE using Cox-regression analysis, considering time zero of follow-up as the date of LSMc...

REVIEW
Jothika V Challapalli, Jessica H Yoon, Robert C Ward
Breast cryoablation is a minimally invasive image-guided percutaneous procedure to treat fibroadenomas and early-stage breast cancer utilizing liquid nitrogen or argon gas to create extremely cold temperatures that devitalize targeted tissue. Although more long term data are needed, this outpatient procedure is well tolerated and carries minimal risks, including non-target thermal injury that can be mitigated by careful planning and proper technique. Building a sustainable breast cryoablation service in a radiology practice poses several practical considerations, such as training proceduralists, purchasing equipment, recruiting patients, and understanding the revenue cycle...

Silyl ethers fulfil a fundamental role in synthetic organic chemistry as protecting groups and their selective cleavage is an important factor in their application. We present here for the first time two enzymes, SilE-R and SilE-S, which are able to hydrolyze silyl ethers. They belong to the stress-response A/B barrel domain (DABB) family and are able to cleave the Si-O bond with opposite enantiopreference. Silyl ethers containing aromatic, cyclic or aliphatic alcohols and, depending on the alcohol moiety, silyl functions as large as TBDMS are accepted...

β-thalassemia is a disorder characterized by anemia, ineffective erythropoiesis (IE), and iron overload, whose treatment still requires improvement. The activin receptor-ligand trap Luspatercept, a novel therapeutic option for β-thalassemia, stimulates erythroid differentiation inhibiting the transforming growth factor β pathway. However, its exact mechanism of action and the possible connection with erythropoietin (Epo), the erythropoiesis governing cytokine, remain to be clarified. Moreover, Luspatercept does not correct all the features of the disease, calling for the identification of strategies that enhance its efficacy...

Purpose: Oncology clinicians are appropriately positioned to facilitate discussions of assisted reproductive technologies including preimplantation genetic testing for monogenic disease (PGT-M), in the context of cancer treatment or surveillance. Yet, reproductive services, including PGT-M, remain one of the least implemented services in oncology. No studies to date have explored which practice resources the clinicians need to increase knowledge of PGT-M. The objective of this study was to explore the specific needs of oncology clinicians to help maximize the reproductive potential of young adult patients with hereditary cancers...

Polycythemia vera (PV) is a clonal disorder arising from the acquired somatic mutations of the JAK2 gene, including JAK2V617F or several others in exon 12. A 38-year-old female had a stroke at age 32 and found to have elevated hemoglobin, normal leukocytes, normal platelets, and tested negative for JAK2V617F and exon 12 mutations. Next generation sequencing revealed a novel mutation: JAK2R715T in the pseudokinase domain (JH2) at 47.5%. Its presence in her nail DNA confirmed a germline origin. Her mother and her son similarly had erythrocytosis and a JAK2R715T mutation...

Background: Imagery rescripting (ImRs) has shown to be an effective treatment for posttraumatic stress disorders (PTSD) resulting from childhood-related trauma. The current theory is that the change of meaning of the trauma memory is central to the treatment. Several authors have suggested that the expression of needs, feelings and actions may act as potential healing factors, but little specific research aimed at (in)validating this hypothesis has been done so far. Objective: In this study we investigated to what extent the expression of inhibited action tendencies and the fulfilling of needs lead to the reduction of PTSD symptoms in clients with early childhood trauma...

The oxidative coupling reaction of two Ni(II) porphyrins meso-substituted with three and four phenyl groups, Ni(II) 5,10,15-(triphenyl)porphyrin (NiPh3P) and Ni(II) 5,10,15,20-(tetraphenyl)porphyrin (NiPh4P) respectively, was investigated in a oxidative chemical vapor deposition (oCVD) process. Irrespective of the number of meso-substituents, high-resolution mass spectrometry evidences the formation of oligomeric species containing up to five porphyrin units. UV-Vis-NIR and XPS analyses of the oCVD films highlighted a strong dependence of the intermolecular coupling reaction with the substrate temperature...

High-dose chemotherapy followed by autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation is the standard of care for eligible patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma leading to prolonged progression free and overall survival. Successful engraftment following hematopoietic stem cell infusion requires adequate stem cell doses. Current mobilization regimens include granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) with or without plerixafor. Motixafortide is a recently approved agent that can be used in combination with G-CSF for mobilization...
