    Abstract In eukaryotic cells, apoptosis and cell cycle arrest by the Ras --> RASSF --> MST pathway are controlled by the interaction of SARAH (for Salvador/Rassf/Hippo) domains in the C-terminal part of tumor suppressor proteins. The Mst1 SARAH domain interacts with its homologous domain of Rassf1 and Rassf5 (also known as Nore1) by forming a heterodimer that mediates the apoptosis process. Here, we describe the homodimeric structure of the human Mst1 SARAH domain and its heterotypic interaction with the Rassf5 and Salvador (Sav) SARAH domain. The Mst1 SARAH structure forms a homodimer containing two helices per monomer. An antiparallel arrangement of the long alpha-helices (h2/h2') provides an elongated binding interface between the two monomers, and the short 3(10) helices (h1/h1') are folded toward that of the other monomer. Chemical shift perturbation experiments identified an elongated, tight-binding interface with the Rassf5 SARAH domain and a 1:1 heterodimer formation. The linker region between the kinase and the SARAH domain is shown to be disordered in the free protein. These results imply a novel mode of interaction with RASSF family proteins and provide insight into the mechanism of apoptosis control by the SARAH domain.

    Abstract In eukaryotic cells, apoptosis and cell cycle arrest by the Ras [rightward arrow] RASSF [rightward arrow] MST pathway are controlled by the interaction of SARAH (for Salvador/Rassf/Hippo) domains in the C-terminal part of tumor suppressor proteins. The Mst1 SARAH domain interacts with its homologous domain of Rassf1 and Rassf5 (also known as Nore1) by forming a heterodimer that mediates the apoptosis process. Here, we describe the homodimeric structure of the human Mst1 SARAH domain and its heterotypic interaction with the Rassf5 and Salvador (Sav) SARAH domain. The Mst1 SARAH structure forms a homodimer containing two helices per monomer. An antiparallel arrangement of the long α-helices (h2/h2') provides an elongated binding interface between the two monomers, and the short 3₁₀ helices (h1/h1') are folded toward that of the other monomer. Chemical shift perturbation experiments identified an elongated, tight-binding interface with the Rassf5 SARAH domain and a 1:1 heterodimer formation. The linker region between the kinase and the SARAH domain is shown to be disordered in the free protein. These results imply a novel mode of interaction with RASSF family proteins and provide insight into the mechanism of apoptosis control by the SARAH domain.

    Abstract Area-based social disadvantage, which measures the income, employment, and housing quality in one's community, can impact an individual's health above person-level factors. A life course approach examines how exposure to disadvantage can affect health in later life. This systematic review aimed to summarize the approaches used to assess exposure to area-based disadvantage over a life course, specifically those that define the length and timing of exposure. We reviewed the abstracts of 831 articles based on the following criteria: (1) whether the abstract described original research; (2) whether the study was longitudinal; (3) whether area-based social disadvantage was an exposure variable; (4) whether area-based social disadvantage was assessed at multiple points; and (5) whether exposure was assessed from childhood to older adulthood. Zero articles met all the above criteria, so we relaxed the fifth criterion in a secondary review. Six studies met our secondary criteria and were eligible for data extraction. The included studies followed subjects from childhood into adulthood, but none assessed disadvantages in late life. The approaches used to assess exposure included creating a cumulative disadvantage score, conducting a comparison between life course periods, and modeling the trajectory of disadvantage over time. Additional research was needed to validate the methodologies described here, specifically in terms of measuring the impact of area-based social disadvantage on health.

    Abstract Objective: The objective of this study was to compare the cost and effectiveness of three strategies for screening and/or treating bacterial vaginosis (BV) during pregnancy prior to delivery: (1) the current standard of care, neither test nor treat for BV (Treat None); (2) test all patients for BV at 36 weeks gestation; treat if positive (Test Treat); and (3) treat all patients undergoing cesarean delivery with intravenous metronidazole at time of surgery (Treat All Cesarean). Effectiveness was defined as avoidance of postpartum surgical site infection.
    Study design: A decision analytic cost-effectiveness model was designed from a third-party payer perspective using clinical and cost estimates obtained from the literature, American College of Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement Program participant use file, National Vital Statistics, Medicare costs, and wholesale drug costs. Cost estimates were inflated to 2020 United States dollars. For this study, effectiveness was defined as postpartum surgical site infections (SSI) avoided.
    Results: In the base case analysis, the current standard of care, Treat None, was the most expensive and least effective strategy, with a mean cost of $59.16 and infection rate of 3.71%. Treat All Cesarean was the most effective and least expensive strategy, with a mean cost of $53.50 and an infection rate of 2.75%. Test Treat was also relatively inexpensive and effective, with an infection rate of 2.94% and mean cost of $57.05. Compared to Treat None, we would expect the Treat All Cesarean strategy to reduce the infection rate by 26%.
    Conclusion: These findings suggest that treating pregnant patients with intravenous metronidazole at time of cesarean delivery could be an effective and cost-saving strategy. Testing and treating for BV could also be considered a reasonable strategy, as it has the added benefit of preserving antibiotic stewardship. In no analysis was the standard of care the preferred strategy.

    Abstract Background: Several strategies have been implemented to better identify the course of the ureters intra-operatively due of the morbidity associated with ureteric injuries especially during gynaecological surgery. We described our experience with pre-operative ureteric catherisation in women who underwent major endoscopic gynaecological surgery.
    Methods: A case-controlled study of 862 women who underwent major endoscopic gynaecological surgery sourced from two health institutions were conducted. Two groups were compared: those who had pre-operative prophylactic ureteric catherisation (study group) and those who had routine cystoscopy performed immediately post surgery (control group).
    Results: There were no intra-operative ureteric injuries or associated complications noted in the study group. When compared to the control group, length of hospital stay (2 days vs 5 days; p < 0.05) and overall mean time for cystoscopy (11 min vs 35 min; p < 0.05) was significantly shorter in the study group. There was no long-term morbidity recorded in the study group.
    Conclusion: Our experiences with prophylactic pre-operative bilateral ureteric catheterisation for major endoscopic gynaecological surgeries were favourable and are associated with low complication rates. Routine or adjunct use before major gynaecological and pelvic surgery combined with meticulous surgical technique can help reduce iatrogenic and unintentional ureteric injuries.
