    Abstract Introduction: Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a widely prevalent condition with consequent multiple organ systems complications. There is consensus that OSA is associated with negative effects on pulmonary hemodynamics but whether it contributes to development of clinical pulmonary hypertension (PH) is unclear.
    Areas covered: In this review, we (1) highlight previous studies looking into the possible bidirectional association of OSA and PH, focusing on those that explore clinical prognostic implications, (2) explore potential pathophysiology, (3) discuss the new metrics in OSA, (4) describe endo-phenotyping of OSA, (5) recommend possible risk assessment and screening pathways.
    Expert opinion: Relying only on symptoms to consider a sleep study in PH patients is a missed opportunity to detect OSA, which, if present and not treated, can worsen outcomes. The potential prognostic role of sleep study metrics such as oxygen desaturation index (ODI), hypoxic burden (HB) and ventilatory burden (VB) in OSA should be studied in prospective trials to identify patients at risk for PH. AHI alone has not provided clarity. In those with PH, we should consider replacing ambulatory overnight pulse oximetry (OPO) with home sleep studies (HST). In PH patients, mild OSA should be sufficient to consider PAP therapy.

    Abstract Introduction: Oncology media websites such as Oncology Live (OncLive) and Targeted Oncology (TargetedOnc) play an important role in the dissemination of oncology news to patients and clinicians; however, the quality of the content on these websites has not been assessed. Our study aimed to analyze content from these websites and assess financial conflicts of interest (FCOI) amongst speakers interviewed on these websites.
    Methods: Articles published on OncLive and TargetedOnc during October 2021, were prospectively captured and analyzed. The primary outcome of our study was the quality of oncology news reporting in OncLive and TargetedOnc. We assessed the FCOI amongst speakers using data from Open Payments.
    Results: We examined 196 articles (OncLive 108, TargetedOnc 88). Limitations of cited research were reported in 7% (7/105) of OncLive and zero TargetedOnc articles. Benefit and risks in absolute numbers were reported in 28% (28/99) of OncLive and 16% (7/45) of TargetedOnc articles. Independent experts were quoted in 47% (51/108) and 51% (44/86) of the OncLive and TargetedOnc articles, respectively (Table 3). Pharmaceutical executives were quoted in 18% (20/108) and 11% (10/88) of OncLive and TargetedOnc articles, respectively. No FCOI disclosures were listed or reported for any articles. The mean general payment received from industry by United States physicians was $63,861 in 2019 and $39,639 in 2020.
    Conclusion: Our study demonstrates low quality and potentially biased reporting of oncology news on OncLive and TargetedOnc. Careful safeguards, oversight and reporting of relevant FCOI are needed to maintain the quality and transparency of content being provided.

    Abstract Background: There are limited reports describing critically ill COVID-19 patients in New York. Methods: We conducted a retrospective analysis of 32 adult critically ill patients admitted to a tertiary community hospital in upstate NY, between March 14th and April 12th, 2020. We collected demographic, laboratory, ventilator, and treatment data, which were analyzed and clinical outcomes tabulated. Results: 32 patients admitted to the ICU were included, with mean (±SD) follow-up duration 21 ± 7 days. Mean (±SD) age was 62.2 ± 11.2 years, and 62.5% were men. 27 (84.4%) of patients had one or more medical co-morbidities and 50% of the patients were current or former smokers. The mean (±SD) duration of symptoms was 6.6 (±4.4) days before presentation, with cough (81.3%), dyspnea (68.7%), and fever (65.6%) being most common. 23 (71.9%) patients received invasive mechanical ventilation. 5 (15.6%) had died, 11 (34.4%) had been discharged home, and 16 (50%) remained hospitalized, 8 (25%) of which were still in ICU. Mean (±SD) length of ICU stay was 10.2 (±7.7) days, and mean (±SD) length of hospital stay was 14.8 (±7.7) days. Conclusion: Majority of patients were of older age and with medical co-morbidities. With adequate resource utilization, mortality of critically ill COVID-19 patients may not be as high as previously suggested.

    Abstract Several randomized trials have demonstrated the benefits of an invasive strategy for older patients with acute coronary syndromes (ACS); however, there are limited real-world data of the temporal trends in the use of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in this population. This was a retrospective observational analysis. We queried the National Inpatient Sample database from 1998 to 2013 for patients aged ≥70 years who had non-ST-elevation acute coronary syndrome (NSTE-ACS) or ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). We reported the temporal trends of PCI and in-hospital mortality. A total of 6,720,281 hospitalizations with ACS were identified in advanced age patients, 18.3% of whom also underwent PCI. There was an upward trend in the rate of PCI in older adults ≥70 years with any ACS from 9.4% in 1998 to 28.3% in 2013 (p <0.001), as well as in cases of PCI for NSTE-ACS (7.3% in 1998 vs 24.9% in 2013, p <0.001) and PCI for STEMI (11% in 1998 vs 35.7% in 2013, p = 0.002). This upward trend was consistent in all age categories (70 to 79), (80 to 89) and ≥90 years. Despite an increase in the prevalence of comorbidities for ACS hospitalizations aged ≥70 years who received PCI, the in-hospital mortality rate showed a downward trend (p <0.001). Multivariate analysis adjusting for various comorbidities showed that PCI was associated with lower in-hospital mortality and length of hospital stay among elderly with NSTE-ACS and STEMI. In conclusion, in this 16-year analysis there was an increase in the rate of PCI procedures among older adults with ACS. PCI was independently associated with lower mortality in elderly patients with ACS.

    Abstract Chimeric Antigen Receptor-T (CAR-T) cell immunotherapy has produced dramatic responses in hematologic malignancies. One of the challenges in the field is the lack of a simple assay for the detection of CARs on the surface of immune effector cells. In this study, we describe a novel luciferase-based assay, termed Topanga Assay, for the detection of CAR expression. The assay utilizes a recombinant fusion protein, called Topanga reagent, generated by joining the extra-cellular domain of a CAR-target in frame with one of the marine luciferases or their engineered derivatives. The assay involves incubation of CAR expressing cells with the Topanga reagent, a few washes and measurement of luminescence. The assay can detect CARs comprising either immunoglobulin- or non-immunoglobulin-based antigen binding domains. We further demonstrate that addition of epitope tags to the Topanga reagent not only allows its convenient one step purification but also extends its use for detection of CAR cells using flow cytometry. However, crude supernatant containing the secreted Topanga reagent can be directly used in both luminescence and flow-cytometry based assays without prior protein purification. Our results demonstrate that the Topanga assay is a highly sensitive, specific, convenient, economical and versatile assay for the detection of CARs.
