    Abstract Common peroneal neuropathy (CPN), also known as Slimmer's Palsy, is an isolated peripheral neuropathy typically associated with rapid weight loss resulting in loss of adipose tissue and subsequent nerve compression at the fibular head and is up to three times more common in individuals with malignancy. In this case report, we describe the diagnosis of CPN in a 54-year-old female with a 2.5-month history of atraumatic left foot drop and left ankle paresthesias, preceded by a 35-40 pound weight loss over the prior 3.5 month period in the setting of metastatic breast cancer.

    Abstract Background and purpose: MS is a chronic progressive, idiopathic, demyelinating disorder whose diagnosis is contingent on the interpretation of MR imaging. New MR imaging lesions are an early biomarker of disease progression. We aimed to evaluate a machine learning model based on radiomics features in predicting progression on MR imaging of the brain in individuals with MS.
    Materials and methods: This retrospective cohort study with external validation on open-access data obtained full ethics approval. Longitudinal MR imaging data for patients with MS were collected and processed for machine learning. Radiomics features were extracted at the future location of a new lesion in the patients' prior MR imaging ("prelesion"). Additionally, "control" samples were obtained from the normal-appearing white matter for each participant. Machine learning models for binary classification were trained and tested and then evaluated the external data of the model.
    Results: The total number of participants was 167. Of the 147 in the training/test set, 102 were women and 45 were men. The average age was 42 (range, 21-74 years). The best-performing radiomics-based model was XGBoost, with accuracy, precision, recall, and F1-score of 0.91, 0.91, 0.91, and 0.91 on the test set, and 0.74, 0.74, 0.74, and 0.70 on the external validation set. The 5 most important radiomics features to the XGBoost model were associated with the overall heterogeneity and low gray-level emphasis of the segmented regions. Probability maps were produced to illustrate potential future clinical applications.
    Conclusions: Our machine learning model based on radiomics features successfully differentiated prelesions from normal-appearing white matter. This outcome suggests that radiomics features from normal-appearing white matter could serve as an imaging biomarker for progression of MS on MR imaging.

    Abstract Introduction: Cochlear implant (CI) and electric-acoustic stimulation (EAS) users may experience better performance with maps that align the electric filter frequencies to the cochlear place frequencies, known as place-based maps, than with maps that present spectrally shifted information. Individual place-based mapping procedures differ in the frequency content that is aligned to cochlear tonotopicity versus discarded or spectrally shifted. The performance benefit with different place-based maps may vary due to individual differences in angular insertion depth (AID) of the electrode array and whether functional acoustic low-frequency information is available in the implanted ear. The present study compared masked speech recognition with two types of place-based maps as a function of AID and presence of acoustic low-frequency information.
    Methods: Sixty adults with normal hearing listened acutely to CI or EAS simulations of two types of place-based maps for one of three cases of electrode arrays at shallow AIDs. The strict place-based (Strict-PB) map aligned the low- and mid-frequency information to cochlear tonotopicity and discarded information below the frequency associated with the most apical electrode contact. The alternative place-based map (LFshift-PB) aligned the mid-frequency information to cochlear tonotopicity and provided more of the speech spectrum by compressing low-frequency information on the apical electrode contacts (i.e., <1 kHz). Three actual cases of a 12-channel, 24-mm electrode array were simulated by assigning the carrier frequency for an individual channel as the cochlear place frequency of the associated electrode contact. The AID and cochlear place frequency for the most apical electrode contact were 460° and 498 Hz for case 1, 389° and 728 Hz for case 2, and 335° and 987 Hz for case 3, respectively.
    Results: Generally, better performance was observed with the Strict-PB maps for cases 1 and 2, where mismatches were 2-4 octaves for the most apical channel with the LFshift-PB map. Similar performance was observed between maps for case 3. For the CI simulations, performance with the Strict-PB map declined with decreases in AID, while performance with the LFshift-PB map remained stable across cases. For the EAS simulations, performance with the Strict-PB map remained stable across cases, while performance with the LFshift-PB map improved with decreases in AID.
    Conclusions: Listeners demonstrated differences with the Strict-PB versus LFshift-PB maps as a function of AID and whether acoustic low-frequency information was available (CI vs. EAS). These data support the use of the Strict-PB mapping procedure for AIDs ≥335°, though further study including time for acclimatization in CI and EAS users is warranted.

    Abstract Computer simulation methods can aid in the rational design of drugs aimed at a specific target, typically a protein. The affinity of a drug for its target is given by the free energy of binding. Binding can be further characterized by the enthalpy and entropy changes in the process. Methods exist to determine exact free energies, enthalpies, and entropies that are dependent only on the quality of the potential model and adequate sampling of conformational degrees of freedom. Entropy and enthalpy are roughly an order of magnitude more difficult to calculate than the free energy. This project combines a replica exchange method for enhanced sampling, designed to be efficient for protein-sized systems, with free energy calculations. This approach, replica exchange with dynamical scaling (REDS), uses two conventional simulations at different temperatures so that the entropy can be found from the temperature dependence of the free energy. A third replica is placed between them, with a modified Hamiltonian that allows it to span the temperature range of the conventional replicas. REDS provides temperature-dependent data and aids in sampling. It is applied to the bromodomain-containing protein 4 (BRD4) system. We find that for the force fields used, the free energies are accurate but the entropies and enthalpies are not, with the entropic contribution being too positive. Reproducing the entropy and enthalpy of binding appears to be a more stringent test of the force fields than reproducing the free energy.

    Abstract The presence of measurable residual disease (MRD) is strongly associated with treatment outcomes in acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Despite the correlation with clinical outcomes, MRD assessment has yet to be standardized or routinely incorporated into clinical trials and discrepancies have been observed between different techniques for MRD assessment. In 62 patients with AML, aged 18-60 years, in first complete remission after intensive induction therapy on the randomized phase III SWOG-S0106 clinical trial (clinicaltrials gov. Identifier: NCT00085709), MRD detection by centralized, high-quality multiparametric flow cytometry was compared with a 29-gene panel utilizing duplex sequencing (DS), an ultrasensitive next-generation sequencing method that generates double-stranded consensus sequences to reduce false positive errors. MRD as defined by DS was observed in 22 (35%) patients and was strongly associated with higher rates of relapse (68% vs. 13%; hazard ratio [HR] =8.8; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 3.2-24.5; P<0.001) and decreased survival (32% vs. 82%; HR=5.6; 95% CI: 2.3-13.8; P<0.001) at 5 years. DS MRD strongly outperformed multiparametric flow cytometry MRD, which was observed in ten (16%) patients and marginally associated with higher rates of relapse (50% vs. 30%; HR=2.4; 95% CI: 0.9-6.7; P=0.087) and decreased survival (40% vs. 68%; HR=2.5; 95% CI: 1.0-6.3; P=0.059) at 5 years. Furthermore, the prognostic significance of DS MRD status at the time of remission for subsequent relapse was similar on both randomized arms of the trial. These findings suggest that next-generation sequencing-based AML MRD testing is a powerful tool that could be developed for use in patient management and for early anti-leukemic treatment assessment in clinical trials.

    Abstract Background and purpose: The rate of abnormal intracranial MR imaging findings including subdural collections and dural enhancement after recent lumbar puncture is not known. The purpose of our study was to examine the intracranial MR imaging findings after recent image-guided lumbar puncture.
    Materials and methods: Patients who underwent contrast-enhanced MR imaging of the brain within 7 days of a CT-guided lumbar puncture between January 2014 and April 2021 were included. Contrast-enhanced MR images were reviewed for diffuse dural enhancement, morphologic findings of brain sag, dural venous sinus distension, and subdural collections.
    Results: Of the 160 patients who met the inclusion criteria, only 6 patients (3.9%) had new diffuse dural enhancement, though none had dural enhancement when the MR imaging was within 2 days of lumbar puncture. All 6 patients with dural enhancement had small, concurrent subdural collections. Two additional patients had subdural collections, for a total of 5.2% of our population.
    Conclusions: Our study is the first to examine intracranial MR imaging after recent lumbar puncture and has 2 key findings: First, 5.2% of patients had small, bilateral subdural collections after recent lumbar puncture, suggesting that asymptomatic subdural collections after recent lumbar puncture are not atypical and do not require further work-up. Additionally, when MR imaging was performed within 2 days of lumbar puncture, none of our patients had diffuse dural enhancement. This argues against the commonly held practice of performing MR imaging before lumbar puncture to avoid findings of dural enhancement, and should not delay diagnostic work-up.

    Abstract Purpose: Cochlear implant (CI) recipients demonstrate variable speech recognition when listening with a CI-alone or electric-acoustic stimulation (EAS) device, which may be due in part to electric frequency-to-place mismatches created by the default mapping procedures. Performance may be improved if the filter frequencies are aligned with the cochlear place frequencies, known as place-based mapping. Performance with default maps versus an experimental place-based map was compared for participants with normal hearing when listening to CI-alone or EAS simulations to observe potential outcomes prior to initiating an investigation with CI recipients.
    Method: A noise vocoder simulated CI-alone and EAS devices, mapped with default or place-based procedures. The simulations were based on an actual 24-mm electrode array recipient, whose insertion angles for each electrode contact were used to estimate the respective cochlear place frequency. The default maps used the filter frequencies assigned by the clinical software. The filter frequencies for the place-based maps aligned with the cochlear place frequencies for individual contacts in the low- to mid-frequency cochlear region. For the EAS simulations, low-frequency acoustic information was filtered to simulate aided low-frequency audibility. Performance was evaluated for the AzBio sentences presented in a 10-talker masker at +5 dB signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), +10 dB SNR, and asymptote.
    Results: Performance was better with the place-based maps as compared with the default maps for both CI-alone and EAS simulations. For instance, median performance at +10 dB SNR for the CI-alone simulation was 57% correct for the place-based map and 20% for the default map. For the EAS simulation, those values were 59% and 37% correct. Adding acoustic low-frequency information resulted in a similar benefit for both maps.
    Conclusions: Reducing frequency-to-place mismatches, such as with the experimental place-based mapping procedure, produces a greater benefit in speech recognition than maximizing bandwidth for CI-alone and EAS simulations. Ongoing work is evaluating the initial and long-term performance benefits in CI-alone and EAS users.

    Abstract Objectives: To investigate the incidence of electrode contacts within the functional acoustic hearing region in cochlear implant (CI) recipients and to assess its influence on speech recognition for electric-acoustic stimulation (EAS) users.
    Study design: Retrospective review.
    Setting: Tertiary referral center.
    Patients: One hundred five CI recipients with functional acoustic hearing preservation (≤80 dB HL at 250 Hz).
    Interventions: Cochlear implantation with a 24-, 28-, or 31.5-mm lateral wall electrode array.
    Main outcome measures: Angular insertion depth (AID) of individual contacts was determined from imaging. Unaided acoustic thresholds and AID were used to calculate the proximity of contacts to the functional acoustic hearing region. The association between proximity values and speech recognition in quiet and noise for EAS users at 6 months postactivation was reviewed.
    Results: Sixty percent of cases had one or more contacts within the functional acoustic hearing region. Proximity was not significantly associated with speech recognition in quiet. Better performance in noise was observed for cases with close correspondence between the most apical contact and the upper edge of residual hearing, with poorer results for increasing proximity values in either the basal or apical direction ( r14 = 0.48, p = 0.043; r18 = -0.41, p = 0.045, respectively).
    Conclusion: There was a high incidence of electrode contacts within the functional acoustic hearing region, which is not accounted for with default mapping procedures. The variability in outcomes across EAS users with default maps may be due in part to electric-on-acoustic interference, electric frequency-to-place mismatch, and/or failure to stimulate regions intermediate between the most apical electrode contact and the functional acoustic hearing region.

    Abstract Introduction: COVID-19 catalysed a rapid move to provide care away from the hospital using online communication platforms. Technology enabled care (TEC) continues to be an important driver in progressing future healthcare services. Due to the complex and chronic nature of conditions seen within paediatric rheumatology, TEC may lead to better outcomes. Despite some growth in published literature into the adoption of TEC in paediatric rheumatology, there is limited synthesis. The aim of this review is to provide a comprehensive understanding and evaluation of the adoption of TEC by patients in paediatric rheumatology services, to establish best practices.
    Methods and analysis: This proposed mixed-methods systematic review will be conducted by searching a wide variety of healthcare databases, grey literature resources and associated charities and societies, for articles reported in English language. Data extraction will include population demographics, technology intervention, factors affecting adoption of intervention and consequent study outcomes. A parallel-results convergent synthesis design is planned, with independent syntheses of quantitative and qualitative data, followed by comparison of the findings of each synthesis using a narrative approach. Normalisation process theory will be used to identify, characterise and explain implementation factors. The quality of included articles will be assessed using the Mixed Methods Appraisal Tool for research papers and the Authority, Accuracy, Coverage, Objectivity, Date, Significance checklist for grey literature. Overall confidence in quality and strength of evidence will be assessed using the Confidence in the Evidence from Reviews of Qualitative Research tool.
    Ethics and dissemination: Ethical approval is not required due to the nature of this mixed-methods systematic review. The findings will be disseminated via a peer-reviewed journal, relevant conferences and any other methods (eg, via NHS Trust or NIHR YouTube channels) as advised by paediatric rheumatology patients.
