    Abstract: Although children with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) are at elevated risk for comorbid psychopathology, the clinical correlates of ADHD in girls are far less understood relative to boys, despite ADHD being one of the most common childhood disorders in girls. OBJECTIVE: To meta-analytically summarize rates of comorbid internalizing (anxiety, depression) and externalizing (oppositional defiant disorder [ODD], conduct disorder [CD] ) psychopathology among girls with and without ADHD. DATA SOURCES: Literature searches (PubMed, Google Scholar) identified published studies examining comorbid psychopathology in girls with and without ADHD. STUDY SELECTION: Eighteen studies (1997 participants) met inclusion criteria and had sufficient data for the meta-analysis. DATA EXTRACTION: Odds ratios for each comorbid disorder were calculated from available data. Demographic (eg, age, race/ethnicity) and study characteristics (eg, referral source, diagnostic method) were also coded. RESULTS: Compared with girls without ADHD, girls with ADHD were significantly more likely to meet Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fourth Edition criteria for each comorbid disorder assessed. Relative odds were higher for externalizing (ODD: 5.6×; CD: 9.4×) relative to internalizing disorders (anxiety: 3.2×; depression: 4.2×). Meta-regression revealed larger effect sizes of ADHD on anxiety for studies using multiple diagnostic methods, featuring younger children, and including clinic-referred (versus community-referred) girls; the effect of ADHD on ODD varied based on diagnostic informant. LIMITATIONS: Findings were derived from cross-sectional studies, precluding causal inferences. CONCLUSIONS: Girls with ADHD frequently exhibit comorbid externalizing and internalizing disorders. We discuss future research priorities and consider intervention implications for ADHD and comorbid psychopathology in girls.

    Abstract: Rare variants in at least 10 genes, including BRCA1, BRCA2, PALB2, ATM, and CHEK2, are associated with increased risk of breast cancer; however, these variants, in combination with common variants identified through genome-wide association studies, explain only a fraction of the familial aggregation of the disease. To identify further susceptibility genes, we performed a two-stage whole-exome sequencing study. In the discovery stage, samples from 1528 breast cancer cases enriched for breast cancer susceptibility and 3733 geographically matched unaffected controls were sequenced. Using five different filtering and gene prioritization strategies, 198 genes were selected for further validation. These genes, and a panel of 32 known or suspected breast cancer susceptibility genes, were assessed in a validation set of 6211 cases and 6019 controls for their association with risk of breast cancer overall, and by estrogen receptor (ER) disease subtypes, using gene burden tests applied to loss-of-function and rare missense variants. Twenty genes showed nominal evidence of association (p-value 〈 0.05) with either overall or subtype-specific breast cancer. Our study had the statistical power to detect susceptibility genes with effect sizes similar to ATM, CHEK2, and PALB2, however, it was underpowered to identify genes in which susceptibility variants are rarer or confer smaller effect sizes. Larger sample sizes would be required in order to identify such genes.

    Abstract: 〈 b 〉 〈 i 〉 Background: 〈 /i 〉 〈 /b 〉 Data on institutional structures of sarcoma care in Germany are scarce. The utilization of an interdisciplinary tumor board (IDTB) is an essential part of modern cancer care. We investigated to which extent and when IDTB are used in sarcoma care. We hypothesized that IDTB before treatment initiation were used more often at certified cancer centers and at high-volume centers and that IDTB utilization increased over time. 〈 b 〉 〈 i 〉 Methods: 〈 /i 〉 〈 /b 〉 From 2017 to 2020 we conducted a prospective cohort study, undertaking major efforts to include the whole spectrum of sarcoma treatment facilities. To analyze potential predictors of IDTB utilization, we calculated multivariable logistic regressions. 〈 b 〉 〈 i 〉 Results: 〈 /i 〉 〈 /b 〉 Patients and survivors ( 〈 i 〉 n 〈 /i 〉 = 1,309) from 39 study centers (22 tertiary referral hospitals, 9 other hospitals, and 8 office-based practices) participated; 88.3% of the patients were discussed at some stage of their disease in an IDTB (56.1% before treatment, 78% after therapy, and 85.9% in metastatic disease). Hypotheses were confirmed regarding the utilization of IDTB in certified cancer centers (vs. all others: OR = 5.39; 95% CI 3.28–8.85) and the time of diagnosis (2018/2019 vs. until 2013: OR = 4.95; 95% CI 2.67–9.21). 〈 b 〉 〈 i 〉 Conclusion: 〈 /i 〉 〈 /b 〉 〈 i 〉 〈 /i 〉 Our study adds to the evidence regarding the institutional structures of sarcoma care in Germany. Utilization of a tumor board before therapy seems to be in an implementation process that is making progress but is far from complete. Certification is a possible tool to accelerate this development.

    Abstract: Hypertension is one of the major risk factors for chronic kidney disease. Using quantitative trait loci analysis, we identified the gene of the F-BAR protein NOSTRIN in the center of an overlapping region in rat and human quantitative trait loci that are associated with hypertension. Immunohistochemical analysis revealed a predominantly podocytic expression pattern of NOSTRIN in human and mouse glomeruli. Further, NOSTRIN colocalizes with cell–cell contact–associated proteins β-catenin and zonula occludens-1 and interacts with the slit-membrane–associated adaptor protein CD2AP. In zebrafish larvae, knockdown of nostrin alters the glomerular filtration barrier function, inducing proteinuria and leading to ultrastructural morphological changes on the endothelial and epithelial side and of the glomerular basement membrane of the glomerular capillary loop. We conclude that NOSTRIN expression is an important factor for the integrity of the glomerular filtration barrier. Disease-related alteration of NOSTRIN expression may not only affect the vascular endothelium and, therefore, contribute to endothelial cell dysfunction but might also contribute to the development of podocyte disease and proteinuria.

    Abstract: The bioavailability of nitric oxide (NO) has been associated with the development and progression of vascular and renal disease. NOSTRIN (for eNOS Traffic Inducer) has primarily been recognized as one important regulator of eNOS, the prime source of NO in the cardiovascular system, with a possible role in the pathogenesis of pre-eclampsia and the development of increased intrahepatic resistance in liver disease. Here, we identified NOSTRIN in the center of a QTL-overlap region in rat and human trait loci that are associated with hypertension. Glomerular NOSTRIN expression is detectable in podocytes in human and rat glomeruli and podocytic NOSTRIN expression is diminished in hypertensive kidney disease. We show that knockdown of NOSTRIN alters the glomerular filtration barrier function in larval zebrafish, inducing proteinuria and leading to ultrastructural morphological changes on the endothelial as well as epithelial side and the GBM of the glomerular capillary loop. We also demonstrate that NOSTRIN interacts with proteins associated with the podocyte slit membrane. We conclude that NOSTRIN expression is an important factor for the integrity of the glomerular filtration barrier. Disease related alteration of NOSTRIN expression may not only affect the vascular endothelium and therefore contribute to endothelial cell dysfunction but may also contribute to the development of podocyte disease and proteinuria.

    Abstract: When hemodialysis arteriovenous accesses fail, autogenous options are often limited. Non-autogenous conduit choices include bovine carotid artery xenografts (BCAG) and expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), yet their comparative effectiveness in hemodialysis access revision remains largely unknown. Methods: A cohort study was performed from a prospectively collected institutional database from August 2010 to July 2021. All patients undergoing an arteriovenous access revision with either BCAG or PTFE were followed for up to 3 years from their index access revision. Revision was defined as graft placement to address a specific problem of an existing arteriovenous access while maintaining one or more of the key components of the original access (e.g. inflow, outflow, and cannulation zone). Outcomes were measured starting at the date of the index revision procedure. The primary outcome was loss of secondary patency at 3 years. Secondary outcomes included loss of post-intervention primary patency, rates of recurrent interventions, and 30-day complications. Pooled logistic regression was used to estimate inverse probability weighted marginal structural models for the time-to-event outcomes of interest. Results: A total of 159 patients were included in the study, and 58% received access revision with BCAG. Common indications for revision included worn out cannulation zones (32%), thrombosis (18%), outflow augmentation (16%), and inflow augmentation (13%). Estimated risk of secondary patency loss at 3 years was lower in the BCAG group (8.6%, 3.9–15.1) compared to the PTFE group (24.8%, 12.4–38.7). Patients receiving BCAG experienced a 60% decreased relative risk of secondary patency loss at 3 years (risk ratio 0.40, 0.14–0.86). Recurrent interventions occurred at similar rates in the BCAG and PTFE groups, with 1.86 (1.31–2.43) and 1.60 (1.07–2.14) interventions at 1 year, respectively (hazard ratio 1.22, 0.74–1.96). Conclusions: Under the conditions of this contemporary cohort study, use of BCAG in upper extremity hemodialysis access revision decreased access abandonment when compared to PTFE.

    Abstract: We present a publicly available dataset of 227 healthy participants comprising a young (N=153, 25.1±3.1 years, range 20–35 years, 45 female) and an elderly group (N=74, 67.6±4.7 years, range 59–77 years, 37 female) acquired cross-sectionally in Leipzig, Germany, between 2013 and 2015 to study mind-body-emotion interactions. During a two-day assessment, participants completed MRI at 3 Tesla (resting-state fMRI, quantitative T1 (MP2RAGE), T2-weighted, FLAIR, SWI/QSM, DWI) and a 62-channel EEG experiment at rest. During task-free resting-state fMRI, cardiovascular measures (blood pressure, heart rate, pulse, respiration) were continuously acquired. Anthropometrics, blood samples, and urine drug tests were obtained. Psychiatric symptoms were identified with Standardized Clinical Interview for DSM IV (SCID-I), Hamilton Depression Scale, and Borderline Symptoms List. Psychological assessment comprised 6 cognitive tests as well as 21 questionnaires related to emotional behavior, personality traits and tendencies, eating behavior, and addictive behavior. We provide information on study design, methods, and details of the data. This dataset is part of the larger MPI Leipzig Mind-Brain-Body database.

    Abstract: After creation of a new arteriovenous fistula (AVF), assessment of readiness for use is an important clinical task. Accurate prediction of successful use is challenging, and augmentation of the physical exam with ultrasound has become routine. Herein, we propose a point-of-care tool based on machine learning to enhance prediction of successful unassisted radiocephalic arteriovenous fistula (AVF) use. Our analysis includes pooled patient-level data from 704 patients undergoing new radiocephalic AVF creation, eligible for hemodialysis, and enrolled in the 2014–2019 international multicenter PATENCY-1 or PATENCY-2 randomized controlled trials. The primary outcome being predicted is successful unassisted AVF use within 1-year, defined as 2-needle cannulation for hemodialysis for ≥90 days without preceding intervention. Logistic, penalized logistic (lasso and elastic net), decision tree, random forest, and boosted tree classification models were built with a training, tuning, and testing paradigm using a combination of baseline clinical characteristics and 4–6 week ultrasound parameters. Performance assessment includes receiver operating characteristic curves, precision-recall curves, calibration plots, and decision curves. All modeling approaches except the decision tree have similar discrimination performance and comparable net-benefit (area under the ROC curve 0.78–0.81, accuracy 69.1–73.6%). Model performance is superior to Kidney Disease Outcome Quality Initiative and University of Alabama at Birmingham ultrasound threshold criteria. The lasso model is presented as the final model due to its parsimony, retaining only 3 covariates: larger outflow vein diameter, higher flow volume, and absence of 〉 50% luminal stenosis. A point-of-care online calculator is deployed to facilitate AVF assessment in the clinic.
