    Abstract Aim: The aim of this study was to determine the digital detox programme's impact on the electronic screen syndrome among preparatory school students.
    Design: A quasi-experimental pre- and posttest group was used.
    Methods: Two preparatory governmental schools.
    Sample: purposive sample consists of 105 students.
    Tools: Two tools used for data collection: Student's datasheet and Electronic Screen Addiction Scale. The data collection period took six months, from September 2021 to February 2022.
    Results: The high rate of screen addiction among students dropped to 14.3% in the posttest compared with 20.0% in the pre-test. Moreover, the students' proportion with moderate screen addiction dropped from 65.7% on the pre-test to 43.8% on the posttest. Furthermore, screen addiction students with lower levels were about 41.9% in the posttest and 14.3% in the pre-test.
    Conclusions: There was a highly statistically significant difference between school students' total electronic screen scores in the pre- and posttest. A preventive care programme is recommended for high school children and helps raise screen addiction's awareness and its negative consequences.
    Patient or public contribution: No patient or public contribution.

    Abstract Background: Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) is an aggressive subtype of breast cancer (BC) with ill-defined therapeutic targets. Androgen receptor (AR) and tumour-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) had a prognostic and predictive value in TNBC. The relationship between AR, TILs and clinical behaviour is still not fully understood.
    Methods: Thirty-six TNBC patients were evaluated for AR (positive if ≥1% expression), CD3, CD4, CD8 and CD20 by immunohistochemistry. Stromal TILs were quantified following TILs Working Group recommendations. Lymphocyte-predominant breast cancer (LPBC) was defined as stromal TILs ≥ 50%, whereas lymphocyte-deficient breast cancer (LDBC) was defined as <50%.
    Results: The mean age was 52.5 years and 27.8% were ≥60 years. Seven patients (21.2%) were AR+. All AR+ cases were postmenopausal (≥50 years old). LPBC was 32.2% of the whole cohort. Median TILs were 37.5% and 10% (
    Conclusions: AR expression was evident in older age (≥50 years). Median CD20 was higher in AR- TNBC, while mean CD3 was higher in AR+ tumours. LDBC was associated with higher risk of LN involvement. Larger studies are needed to focus on the clinical impact of the relation between AR and TILs in TNBC.

    Abstract Purpose: Head and neck cancers radiotherapy (RT) is associated with inevitable injury to parotid glands and subsequent xerostomia. We investigated the utility of SUV derived from
    Methods: Data for oropharyngeal cancer (OPC) patients treated with RT at our institution between 2005 and 2015 with available planning computed tomography (CT), dose grid, pre- & first post-RT
    Results: 432 parotid glands, belonging to 108 OPC patients treated with RT, were sub-segmented & analyzed. Xero 3-6 ms was reported as: non-severe (78.7%) and severe (21.3%). SUV- median values were significantly reduced post-RT, irrespective of laterality (p = 0.02). A similar pattern was observed in parotid sub-volumes, especially ipsi parotid gland sub-volumes receiving doses 10-50 Gy (p < 0.05). Kruskal-Wallis test showed a significantly higher mean RT dose in the contra parotid in the patients with more severe Xero 3-6mo (p = 0.03). Multiple logistic regression showed a combined clinical-dosimetric-metabolic imaging model could predict the severity of Xero 3-6mo; AUC = 0.78 (95%CI: 0.66-0.85; p < 0.0001).
    Conclusion: We sought to quantify pre- and post-RT

    Abstract Aim: A single-institution, retrospective study was performed to investigate potential techniques to minimize radiation exposure to the testicles during heterotopic ossification (HO) prophylaxis. We report the impact of split-beam technique (SBT) and different photon energies on the total dose of radiation received by the testicles during prophylaxis of HO.
    Materials and methods: Between 2008 and 2010, we identified 64 patients with traumatic acetabular fractures who underwent surgery followed by radiation therapy (RT) without testicular shielding. Postoperative RT was delivered within 72 h in a single fraction of 700 cGy using 6-18 MV photons, without testicular shielding due to patient refusal. All patients underwent 3-D RT planning in which the testicles were contoured as a region of interest and dose-volume histograms (DVH) were generated. Additional treatment planning trials were created for each patient by utilizing a SBT medially and by using different photon energies (6, 10 and 18 MV) to study the effects of these maneuvers on the delivered dose to the testicles.
    Results: In reviewing the DVH, it was noted that the mean dose delivered to the testicles was 10 cGy (range=3-40). The maximum dose was 31 cGy (range=7-430). When SBT was utilized, a significant reduction in the mean (44%) and maximum (47%) doses delivered to the testicles was noted. Further reductions in the mean (26%) and maximum (14%) doses were achieved by using higher-energy (10-18 MV) beams. The radiation doses to the testicles from the CT simulation and the two portal images were estimated to be 4 and 1.5 cGy, respectively.
    Conclusion: Low-dose prophylactic RT to prevent HO around the hip causes a low, but likely biologically meaningful, radiation dose to be delivered to the testicles. This dose could be further reduced by using a medial SBT and photon energies above 6 MV. Testicular shielding should be offered to all male patients receiving such RT. In addition, all patients should be informed about the consequences of testicular radiation as part of their informed consent.
