    Abstract The National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) Summit on Gender Identity and Student-Athlete Participation was convened to identify institutional/athletic department strategies that may support the well-being of trans and gender nonconforming (TGNC) collegiate student-athletes in the USA. The Summit's purview did not include policy-level changes to eligibility rules. A modified Delphi consensus process was used to identify strategies for supporting collegiate TGNC student-athlete well-being. Key steps included an exploration phase (learning, generating ideas), and an evaluation phase (rating ideas in terms of their utility and feasibility). Summit participants (n=60) included individuals meeting at least one of the following criteria: current or former TGNC athlete, academic or healthcare professional with topical expertise, collegiate athletics stakeholder who would be involved in implementing potential strategies, representative from leading sports medicine organisation, or representative from relevant NCAA membership committee. Summit participants identified strategies in the following domains: healthcare practices (patient-centred care and culturally sensitive care); education for all stakeholders involved in athletics; and administration (inclusive language, quality improvement processes). Summit participants also proposed ways that the NCAA, through its existing committee and governance structures, could help support the well-being of TGNC athletes. NCAA-focused concepts were in the following domains: policy making processes; eligibility and transfer processes; resource development and dissemination; and visibility and support for TGNC athletes. The strategies developed represent important and relevant approaches that member institutions, athletic departments, NCAA committees, governance bodies and other stakeholders might consider in their efforts to support TGNC student-athlete well-being.

    Abstract In making a selection of cellular tools and animal models for generating screening assays in the search for new drugs, one needs to take into consideration the practicality of their use in the drug discovery process. Conducting high-throughput primary screens using libraries of small molecules, close to 1 million members in size, requires the generation of large numbers of cells which are easily acquired, reliably enriched, and reproducibly responsive to standard positive controls. These cells need to be similar in form and function to their counterparts in human disease. In vitro assays that can be mechanized by using robots can therefore save time and costs. In selecting in vivo models, consideration must be given to the species and strain of animal chosen, the appropriateness of the model to human disease, the extent of animal husbandry required during the in-life pharmacological assessment, the technical aspects of generating the model and harvesting the tissues for analyses, the cost of research tools in terms of time and money (demyelinating and remyelinating agents, amount of compound to be generated), and the length of time required for drug testing in the model. A consideration of the translational aspects of the in vivo model compared to those used in the clinic is also important. These themes will be developed with examples for drug discovery in the field of CNS demyelination and repair, specifically as it pertains to multiple sclerosis.

    Abstract Background: We assessed the efficacy and safety of dolutegravir/lamivudine (DTG/3TC) in a US test-and-treat setting at a secondary 48-week time point of the multicenter, single-arm, phase IIIb STAT study.
    Methods: Participants were eligible adults newly diagnosed with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-1 and had started once-daily DTG/3TC within 14 days of diagnosis, before laboratory results were available. Antiretroviral therapy (ART) was modified if baseline testing indicated DTG or 3TC resistance, hepatitis B virus (HBV) coinfection, or creatinine clearance <30 mL/min per 1.73 m
    Results: At Week 48, 82% of all participants regardless of ART (107 of 131; ITT-E missing = failure) and 97% with available data (107 of 110; observed analysis) achieved HIV-1 RNA <50 copies/mL. High proportions of virologic response were seen overall, including in participants with high viral load (≥500 000 copies/mL; 89%) or low CD4
    Conclusions: Results demonstrated high proportions of participants with sustained virologic suppression, no treatment-emergent resistance, and good safety over 48 weeks, supporting first-line use of DTG/3TC in a test-and-treat setting.

    Abstract Objectives: Dolutegravir/lamivudine (DTG/3TC) is indicated for treatment-naive and experienced people with HIV; however, questions remain about its utility in a test-and-treat setting because of potential transmitted resistance and baseline hepatitis B virus (HBV) co-infection. We present feasibility and efficacy of DTG/3TC in newly diagnosed individuals in a test-and-treat setting.
    Design: The single-arm STAT study evaluated DTG/3TC in a US test-and-treat setting.
    Methods: Eligible adults initiated DTG/3TC 14 days or less after HIV-1 diagnosis without availability of baseline laboratory results. If baseline testing indicated DTG or 3TC resistance, HBV co-infection, or creatinine clearance less than 30 ml/min per 1.73 m2, participants remained on study with treatment modification. Efficacy endpoints included proportions of participants with HIV-1 RNA less than 50 copies/ml at Week 24, regardless of antiretroviral regimen, among all participants (intention-to-treat exposed) and those with available HIV-1 RNA data (observed).
    Results: Of 131 participants enrolled, 8% were female and 50% were non-white. Through Week 24, treatment was modified in eight participants [five with HBV co-infection, one with baseline M184V, one for adverse event (rash), one participant decision]. At Week 24, 78% (102/131) of all participants and 92% (102/111) of those with available data achieved HIV-1 RNA less than 50 copies/ml. Incidence of drug-related adverse events was low (7%); no drug-related serious adverse events occurred.
    Conclusion: These data demonstrate the feasibility, efficacy, and safety of using DTG/3TC as a first-line regimen in a test-and-treat setting, with therapy adjustments for baseline resistance or HBV co-infection occurring safely via routine clinical care as needed [ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT03945981; see Supplemental Digital Content 1, video abstract (Video abstract summarizing the STAT study design and results), http://links.lww.com/QAD/C189].

    Abstract Objective: This paper presents and evaluates a breast-specific magnetic resonance guided focused ultrasound (MRgFUS) system. A first-in-human evaluation demonstrates the novel hardware, a sophisticated tumor targeting algorithm and a volumetric magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) protocol.
    Methods: At the time of submission, N = 10 patients with non-palpable T0 stage breast cancer have been treated with the breast MRgFUS system. The described tumor targeting algorithm is evaluated both with a phantom test and in vivo during the breast MRgFUS treatments. Treatments were planned and monitored using volumetric MR-acoustic radiation force imaging (MR-ARFI) and temperature imaging (MRTI).
    Results: Successful technical treatments were achieved in 80 % of the patients. All patients underwent the treatment with no sedation and 60 % of participants had analgesic support. The total MR treatment time ranged from 73 to 114 minutes. Mean error between desired and achieved targeting in a phantom was 2.9 ±1.8 mm while 6.2 ±1.9 mm was achieved in patient studies, assessed either with MRTI or MR-ARFI measurements. MRTI and MR-ARFI were successful in 60 % and 70 % of patients, respectively.
    Conclusion: The targeting accuracy allows the accurate placement of the focal spot using electronic steering capabilities of the transducer. The use of both volumetric MRTI and MR-ARFI provides complementary treatment planning and monitoring information during the treatment, allowing the treatment of all breast anatomies, including homogeneously fatty breasts.
