    Abstract Transthyretin amyloidosis (ATTR) is an under-recognized cause of cardiomyopathy and neuropathy. Until recently, there were limited therapeutic options for ATTR. However, new therapeutics, including tafamidis, patisiran, and inotersen, increase both quality and length of life in patients with ATTR. This review details the chronological development of ATTR therapies through landmark clinical trials. In addition, we discuss emerging ATTR therapies including improvements in drug delivery methods, antibodies to break down deposited amyloid fibrils, and gene editing. ATTR is a prime example of how an understanding of the pathophysiological basis of disease can lead to effective therapies. The future of ATTR therapy is bright, with every reason to believe outcomes will continue to improve.

    Abstract Background: Women receiving chemotherapy for gynecologic cancer (GC) experience severe symptoms with associated functional changes. Understanding day-to-day symptom and function variation within and across chemotherapy treatment cycles could inform improved symptom management, but such studies are rare and may be infeasible in clinical care.
    Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate feasibility and acceptability of daily symptom monitoring combined with objective and self-reported functional assessments every 21 days during active chemotherapy for GC.
    Methods: Thirty women enrolled in a prospective observational study during first-line chemotherapy completed a daily symptom and falls diary during their entire chemotherapy treatment period. Patient-reported outcomes and objective symptom and function testing were assessed before each chemotherapy appointment. Study outcomes included accrual and attrition rates, completion of study assessments, and qualitative perceptions of study participation.
    Results: Participants were 92% White, 60% had high school or higher education, 68% were married/partnered, and 62% had stage III or IV cancer at diagnosis. The study had an 83% accrual rate, 6.6% early withdrawal rate, and 17% total attrition rate. Missing assessments for prechemotherapy patient-reported outcomes and objective assessments ranged from 27% to 35% and 35% to 47% respectively, with a general decrease across cycles. Daily diary completion rate was 83% overall. Participants rated study participation positively.
    Conclusions: Intensive daily symptom and function monitoring was feasible and acceptable to GC patients and may provide a sense of symptom controllability.
    Implications for practice: Daily symptom and function monitoring in research studies may provide patients with information to support symptom discussions with the clinical team. Future work should develop proactive symptom management interventions using personalized symptom trajectories.

    Abstract Saucer scallops (Ylistrum balloti) were tagged and released on four occasions inside two areas closed to fishing (Hervey Bay A, HBA; and Yeppoon B, YB) on the Queensland (Australia) east coast and their subsequent recaptures over the following months were used to measure the instantaneous rate of natural mortality (M). A total of 13,295 scallops were tagged and 526 recaptured over the 15 month-long experiment (May 2018 to August 2019). Three statistical approaches were applied to the experimental design and analysis of the tagging data, based on 1) the Brownie model, 2) a modified version of the Brownie model, and 3) a binomial logistic regression model of recaptures. Estimates of M based on the Brownie model were much higher for tagged scallops that were at liberty over summer months compared to those at liberty over the winter months, possibly indicating seasonal variation. The logistic model parameter estimates indicated the proportion of recaptures differed significantly with the lunar phase at recapture, scallop size class, the number of days the scallops were at liberty and the interaction between days-at-liberty and closure. All three approaches indicated M was higher in HBA compared to YB. Mean estimates of M for the whole fishery, derived by averaging estimates from both closures, ranged from a minimum of 1.461 year–¹ for the logistic model, to 1.501 year–¹ for the Brownie model, to 1.548 year–¹ (variable recapture rate) and 1.594 year–¹ (fixed recapture rate) for the modified Brownie model. Estimates from all three approaches were higher than the previous estimate that was published over 40 years ago and possible reasons for the increase are discussed.
