    Abstract The MedTech Forum 2021 was an online event at which participants from the field of medical devices, diagnostics and digital health openly shared their views on the latest trends, challenges and opportunities currently being faced. The event enticed representatives from around 30 companies from the healthcare sector, as well as those from competent authorities, notified bodies, healthcare providers, academia and patients. Parallel sessions distributed across 3 days enabled the audience to interact with the speakers through a live-chat platform. Various sessions covering health data space, digitalization and interoperability were held in a forum and were a highlight of the meeting due to the potential of health data for the improvement of patient management and healthcare systems. Hot topics included the imminent application of the Medical Device Regulation (MDR) in May 2021 and the application of the In Vitro Diagnostic Device Regulation (IVDR) by May 2022. European competitiveness in the healthcare sector, learnings from the COVID-19 crisis and how to make legislation more friendly with innovations were also topics widely discussed during the event. This report provides a summary of sessions on health digitalization, the application of the new European regulations and lessons learnt from COVID-19.

    Abstract Spin-labeling with electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy (EPR) is a facile method for interrogating macromolecular flexibility, conformational changes, accessibility, and hydration. Within we present a computationally based approach for the rational selection of reporter sites in Bacillus subtilis lipase A (BSLA) for substitution to cysteine residues with subsequent modification with a spin-label that are expected to not significantly perturb the wild-type structure, dynamics, or enzymatic function. Experimental circular dichroism spectroscopy, Michaelis-Menten kinetic parameters and EPR spectroscopy data validate the success of this approach to computationally select reporter sites for future magnetic resonance investigations of hydration and hydration changes induced by polymer conjugation, tethering, immobilization, or amino acid substitution in BSLA. Analysis of molecular dynamic simulations of the impact of substitutions on the secondary structure agree well with experimental findings. We propose that this computationally guided approach for choosing spin-labeled EPR reporter sites, which evaluates relative surface accessibility coupled with hydrogen bonding occupancy of amino acids to the catalytic pocket via atomistic simulations, should be readily transferable to other macromolecular systems of interest including selecting sites for paramagnetic relaxation enhancement NMR studies, other spin-labeling EPR studies or any method requiring a tagging method where it is desirable to not alter enzyme stability or activity.

    Abstract Objective: Infant hip dislocations benefit from early detection and treatment for optimal outcomes. Prior studies have identified that there remains wide variability in the success rate of bracing between institutions. Although there are standardized methods to screen infants for hip dysplasia, there are no clear guidelines regarding how to image a child being treated for a hip dislocation with a Pavlik harness. As a result, there is substantial variability in how treatment success or failure is monitored between and within institutions. The goal of our study is to determine whether a standardized in-harness imaging protocol improves outcomes and the likelihood of successful treatment for dislocated hips being treated with the Pavlik harness.
    Methods: All patients with hip dislocations and pretreatment ultrasound (US) were included from July 2018 to July 2022. A new institutional US protocol was implemented in July 2020, during which standardized in-harness imaging was obtained for patients with hip dislocations. Patients treated before the implementation of standardized in-harness imaging were categorized as nonstandardized and after implementation as a standardized group. Outcomes were compared between standardized and nonstandardized groups. P<0.05 determined the statistical significance.
    Results: One hundred twenty-eight hips met the inclusion criteria (n = 97 patients). The mean age at diagnosis was 41.6 ± 23.4 days and was predominantly female (85.6%). There was no significant difference between the patients' demographics and baseline clinical characteristics between the standardized and nonstandardized groups. Pavlik harness success rate was significantly higher in the standardized group (85% vs 60%, P= 0.0024). Twenty-eight hips in the nonstandardized group remained dislocated and were indicated for surgical treatment, whereas only 8 hips remained dislocated in the standardized group and necessitated closed or open reduction.
    Conclusions: Standardization of in-harness imaging for patients undergoing treatment for developmental hip dislocations can significantly improve the Pavlik harness success rate. These findings emphasize the importance of obtaining images with the hip in flexion and abduction to prevent inadvertent stress during US evaluation for hips that have not yet stabilized, which may lead to premature cessation of the Pavlik harness.

    Abstract A collection of atomistic molecular simulations is reported that illustrate the impact of adsorption temperature on species uptake and adsorbate-induced structural rearrangement for amorphous polymers of intrinsic microporosity. Temperature-sensitive structural rearrangement is evaluated by contrasting two methods: standard grand canonical Monte Carlo simulations using a rigid framework approximation and a combined Monte Carlo/molecular dynamics approach that fully incorporates framework flexibility.

    Abstract Background and objectives: Long-term treatment of patients with rheumatoid arthritis with tumor necrosis factor-α inhibitors leads to initial changes in disease activity that can predict a late treatment response. This observational and retrospective study aimed to determine when it is possible to foresee the response to therapy in the case of long-standing rheumatoid arthritis comparing also the efficacy of the original biologics with their biosimilars.
    Methods: A total of 1598 patients were recruited and treated with the original biologics, adalimumab and etanercept, or with biosimilars. Patients were monitored over a period of 48 months and disease activity scores (28-Joint Disease Activity Score, Simplified Disease Activity Index, and Clinical Disease Activity Index) were measured every 6 months.
    Results: No differences in disease activity levels were observed in etanercept versus biosimilars (GP2015/SB4) and adalimumab versus biosimilar (GP2017) patient groups. All scores significantly decreased in all treatments during the first 18 months of therapy, and after 24 months reached a minimum that lasted up to 48 months.
    Conclusions: We conclude that biosimilars of adalimumab and etanercept have equivalent effectiveness over a long period of time compared to their originator drugs, and also that the levels of disease activity after 6 months of tumor necrosis factor-α inhibitors (originator drugs and biosimilars) might predict the response to therapy at 4 years in patients with long-standing rheumatoid arthritis.

    Abstract The emergence of several zoonotic mosquito-borne pathogens in Europe, including West Nile virus, Sindbis virus and Usutu virus, has emphasised the importance of consistent surveillance. Considerable fieldwork effort is usually needed to detect low-prevalence pathogens in mosquitoes and screening vertebrate hosts and reservoirs is rarely done simultaneously with mosquito sampling. Zoological gardens offer an opportunity for the surveillance of pathogens, mosquitoes, hosts, and reservoirs concurrently; thus, the aim of this study was undertaking integrated surveillance for mosquito-borne pathogens of wild birds and mosquitoes in Chester Zoo (Cheshire) in the United Kingdom. Mosquitoes were collected in September 2020 and tested for zoonotic bird-hosted arboviruses (i.e., West Nile virus, Usutu virus and Sindbis virus) using RT-qPCRs. Of the 3316 mosquitoes trapped, 98% were identified as
