Juxtaglomerular cell tumor (JxGCT) is a rare type of renal neoplasm demonstrating morphologic overlap with some mesenchymal tumors such as glomus tumor (GT) and solitary fibrous tumor (SFT). Its oncogenic drivers remain elusive, and only a few cases have been analyzed with modern molecular techniques. In prior studies, loss of chromosomes 9 and 11 appeared to be recurrent. Recently, whole-genome analysis identified alterations involving genes of MAPK-RAS pathway in a subset, but no major pathogenic alterations have been discovered in prior whole transcriptome analyses. Considering the limited understanding of the molecular features of JxGCTs, we sought to assess a collaborative series with a multiomic approach to further define the molecular characteristics of this entity. Fifteen tumors morphologically compatible with JxGCTs were evaluated using immunohistochemistry for renin, single-nucleotide polymorphism array (SNP), low-pass whole-genome sequencing, and RNA sequencing (fusion assay). In addition, methylation analysis comparing JxGCT, GT, and SFT was performed. All cases tested with renin (n=11) showed positive staining. Multiple chromosomal abnormalities were identified in all cases analyzed (n=8), with gains of chromosomes 1p, 10, 17, and 19 and losses of chromosomes 9, 11, and 21 being recurrent. A pathogenic HRAS mutation was identified in one case as part of the SNP array analysis. Thirteen tumors were analyzed by RNA sequencing, with 2 revealing in-frame gene fusions: TFG::GPR128 (interpreted as stochastic) and NAB2::STAT6 . The latter, originally diagnosed as JxGCT, was reclassified as SFT and excluded from the series. No fusions were detected in the remaining 11 cases; of note, no case harbored NOTCH fusions previously described in GT. Genomic methylation analysis showed that JxGCT, GT, and SFT form separate clusters, confirming that JxGCT represents a distinct entity (ie, different from GT). The results of our study show that JxGCTs are a distinct tumor type with a recurrent pattern of chromosomal imbalances that may play a role in oncogenesis, with MAPK-RAS pathway activation being likely a driver in a relatively small subset.

BACKGROUND: The distribution of time across physical activity, sedentary behaviors, and sleep appears to be essential for the management of obesity. However, the impact of reallocating time among these behaviors, collectively known as 24-h movement behaviors, remains underexplored. OBJECTIVE: This study examines the theoretical effects of reallocating time between 24-h movement behaviors on obesity indicators across different age groups. METHODS: We performed a pooled data meta-analysis of 9818 participants from 11 observational and experimental studies. To estimate the time spent in movement behaviors, we reprocessed and harmonized individual-level raw accelerometer-derived data. Isotemporal substitution models estimated theoretical changes in body mass index (BMI) and waist circumference (WC) associated with time reallocation between movement behaviors. We performed the analysis separately for children, adolescents, adults, and older adults. RESULTS: Even minor reallocations of 10 min led to significant changes in obesity indicators, with pronounced effects observed when 30 min were reallocated. The most substantial adverse effects on BMI and WC occurred when moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) was reallocated to other movement behaviors. For 30-min reallocations, the largest increase in BMI (or BMI z-score for children) occurred when MVPA was reallocated to light-intensity physical activity (LPA) in children (0.26 units, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.15, 0.37) and to sedentary behavior (SB) in adults (0.72 kg/m2, 95% CI 0.47, 0.96) and older adults (0.73 kg/m2, 95% CI 0.59, 0.87). The largest increase in WC was observed when MVPA was substituted with LPA in adults (2.66 cm, 95% CI 1.42, 3.90) and with SB in older adults (2.43 cm, 95% CI 2.07, 2.79). Conversely, the highest magnitude of the decrease in obesity indicators was observed when SB was substituted with MVPA. Specifically, substituting 30 min of SB with MVPA was associated with a decrease in BMI z-score by - 0.15 units (95% CI - 0.21, - 0.10) in children and lower BMI by - 0.56 kg/m2 (95% CI - 0.74, - 0.39) in adults and by - 0.52 kg/m2 (95% CI - 0.61, - 0.43) in older adults. Reallocating time away from sleep and LPA showed several significant changes but lacked a consistent pattern. While the predicted changes in obesity indicators were generally consistent across age groups, inconsistent findings were observed in adolescents, particularly for reallocations between MVPA and other behaviors. CONCLUSIONS: This investigation emphasizes the crucial role of MVPA in mitigating obesity risk across the lifespan, and the benefit of substituting SB with low-intensity movement behaviors. The distinct patterns observed in adolescents suggest a need for age-specific lifestyle interventions to effectively address obesity. Emphasizing manageable shifts, such as 10-min reallocations, could have significant public health implications, promoting sustainable lifestyle changes that accommodate individuals with diverse needs, including those with severe obesity.

Categorization systems for tick-borne encephalitis virus (TBEV) infection lack consistency in classifying disease severity. To evaluate the need for a standard, consensus-based categorisation system for TBEV infection across subtypes, we gathered an expert panel of clinicians and scientists with diverse expertise in TBEV infection. Consensus was sought using the Delphi technique, which consisted of 2 web-based survey questionnaires and a final, virtual, consensus-building exercise. Ten panellists representing 8 European countries participated in the Delphi exercise, with specialities in neurology, infectious disease, paediatrics, immunology, virology, and epidemiology. Panellists reached unanimous consensus on the need for a standardised, international categorisation system to capture both clinical presentation and severity of TBEV infection. Ideally, such a system should be feasible for use at bedside, be clear and easy to understand, and capture both the acute and follow-up phases of TBEV infection. Areas requiring further discussion were (1) the timepoints at which assessments should be made and (2) whether there should be a separate system for children. This Delphi panel study found that a critical gap persists in the absence of a feasible and practical classification system for TBEV infection. Specifically, the findings of our Delphi exercise highlight the need for the development of a user-friendly classification system that captures the acute and follow-up (i.e., outcome) phases of TBEV infection and optimally reflects both clinical presentation and severity. Development of a clinical categorisation system will enhance patient care and foster comparability among studies, thereby supporting treatment development, refining vaccine strategies, and fortifying public health surveillance.

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) main protease (Mpro) autocatalytically releases itself out of the viral polyprotein to form a fully active mature dimer in a manner that is not fully understood. Here, we introduce several tools to help elucidate differences between cis (intramolecular) and trans (intermolecular) proteolytic processing and to evaluate inhibition of precursor Mpro. We found that many mutations at the P1 position of the N-terminal autoprocessing site do not block cis autoprocessing but do inhibit trans processing. Notably, substituting the WT glutamine at the P1 position with isoleucine retains Mpro in an unprocessed precursor form that can be purified and further studied. We also developed a cell-based reporter assay suitable for compound library screening and evaluation in HEK293T cells. This assay can detect both overall Mpro inhibition and the fraction of uncleaved precursor form of Mpro through separable fluorescent signals. We observed that inhibitory compounds preferentially block mature Mpro. Bofutrelvir and a novel compound designed in-house showed the lowest selectivity between precursor and mature Mpro, indicating that inhibition of both forms may be possible. Additionally, we observed positive modulation of precursor activity at low concentrations of inhibitors. Our findings help expand understanding of the SARS-CoV-2 viral life cycle and may facilitate development of strategies to target precursor form of Mpro for inhibition or premature activation of Mpro.

Ceramides are key components of the skin's permeability barrier. In atopic dermatitis, pathological hydrolysis of ceramide precursors - glucosylceramides and sphingomyelin - into lysosphingolipids, specifically glucosylsphingosine (GS) and sphingosine-phosphorylcholine (SPC), and free fatty acids (FFAs) has been proposed to contribute to impaired skin barrier function. This study investigated whether replacing ceramides with lysosphingolipids and FFAs in skin lipid barrier models would exacerbate barrier dysfunction. When applied topically to human stratum corneum sheets, SPC and GS increased water loss, decreased electrical impedance, and slightly disordered lipid chains. In lipid models containing isolated human stratum corneum ceramides, reducing ceramides by ≥ 30% significantly increased permeability to four markers, likely due to loss of long-periodicity phase (LPP) lamellae and phase separation within the lipid matrix, as revealed by X-ray diffraction and infrared spectroscopy. However, when the missing ceramides were replaced by lysosphingolipids and FFAs, no further increase in permeability was observed. Conversely, these molecules partially mitigated the negative effects of ceramide deficiency, particularly with 5%-10% SPC, which reduced permeability even compared to control with "healthy" lipid composition. These findings suggest that while ceramide deficiency is a key factor in skin barrier dysfunction, the presence of lysosphingolipids and FFAs does not aggravate lipid structural or functional damage, but may provide partial compensation, raising further questions about the behavior of lyso(sphingo)lipids in rigid multilamellar lipid environments, such as the stratum corneum, that warrant further investigation.

BACKGROUND: A multicomponent meningococcal serogroups ABCWY vaccine (MenABCWY) could provide broad protection against disease-causing meningococcal strains and simplify the immunisation schedule. The aim of this trial was to confirm the effect of the licensed meningococcal serogroup B (MenB) vaccine, 4CMenB, against diverse MenB strains, and to assess the breadth of immune response against a panel of 110 MenB strains for MenABCWY containing the antigenic components of 4CMenB and licensed serogroups ACWY vaccine, MenACWY-CRM, the non-inferiority of the immune response with MenABCWY versus 4CMenB and MenACWY-CRM, safety, and MenABCWY lot-to-lot consistency. METHODS: We conducted a phase 3 randomised, controlled, observer-blinded trial of healthy adolescents and young adults (age 10-25 years) across 114 centres in Australia, Canada, Czechia, Estonia, Finland, Türkiye, and the USA. Exclusion criteria included previous vaccination with a MenB vaccine or (within the last 4 years) MenACWY vaccine. Participants were randomly allocated (5:5:3:3:3:1 ratio) via a central randomisation system using a minimisation procedure to receive 4CMenB at months 0, 2, and 6 (referred to as 4CMenB 0-2-6 hereafter); or 4CMenB at months 0 and 6 (referred to as 4CMenB 0-6 hereafter); or MenABCWY (three groups, each receiving one production lot of the MenACWY-CRM component) at months 0 and 6; or MenACWY-CRM at month 0. Demonstration in the per-protocol set of the consistency of three MenACWY-CRM component lots of the MenABCWY vaccine was a primary objective (demonstrated with two-sided 95% CIs for the ratio of human serum bactericidal antibody [hSBA] geometric mean titres against each serogroup within predefined criteria [0·5-2·0]). The primary endpoints (breadth of immune response) for the MenB component of MenABCWY and 4CMenB were measured using the endogenous complement hSBA (enc-hSBA) assay against a panel of 110 diverse MenB invasive disease strains. For each serum sample, 35 strains from the 110 MenB strain panel were randomly selected for testing. The 4CMenB breadth of immune response data have been published separately. For MenABCWY, breadth of immune response was assessed in two analyses: a test-based analysis of the percentage of samples (tests) without bactericidal serum activity against MenB strains 1 month after two MenABCWY doses versus the percentage after one MenACWY-CRM dose in the per-protocol set, and a responder-based analysis of the percentage of participants (responders) whose sera killed 70% or more strains at 1 month after two MenABCWY doses in the full analysis set. A lower limit of two-sided 95% CI above 65% would demonstrate breadth of immune response. Other primary outcomes included non-inferiority (5% margin) of two MenABCWY doses versus two 4CMenB doses by enc-hSBA assay in the per-protocol set, non-inferiority (10% margin) of two MenABCWY doses versus one MenACWY-CRM dose in MenACWY vaccine-naive participants by traditional hSBA assay in the per-protocol set, and safety in all vaccinated participants. This trial is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT04502693, and is complete. FINDINGS: Between Aug 14, 2020, and Sept 3, 2021, 3651 participants were enrolled and randomly allocated (900 in the 4CMenB 0-2-6 group and 908 in the 4CMenB 0-6 group, 1666 in the three MenABCWY groups combined, and 177 in the MenACWY-CRM group). All primary objectives for MenABCWY were met. Consistency of immune responses against the three production lots of the MenACWY component of MenABCWY was demonstrated since two-sided 95% CIs for the ratios of hSBA geometric mean titres against serogroups A, C, W, and Y for each pair of lots were within the predefined equivalence criteria. The lot data were pooled for the remainder of MenABCWY endpoints. By enc-hSBA assay, breadth of immune response against the MenB strain panel was 77·9% (95% CI 76·6 to 79·2) in the test-based analysis and 84·1% (81·4 to 86·5; 687 of 817 participants) in the responder-based analysis. Non-inferiority of MenABCWY to 4CMenB was demonstrated by enc-hSBA assay: the difference in percentage of samples with bactericidal serum activity between the MenABCWY group (82·5% [95% CI 82·1 to 83·0]; 21 222 of 25 715) and 4CMenB 0-2 group (83·1% [82·7 to 83·6]; 22 921 of 27 569) was -0·61% (-1·25 to 0·03). Non-inferiority of two-dose MenABCWY to one-dose MenACWY-CRM was demonstrated by traditional hSBA assay, with differences between the MenABCWY group and MenACWY group in percentages of participants with a four-fold rise in hSBA titres of 11·3% (5·9 to 19·0) for serogroup A, 47·2% (38·1 to 56·3) for serogroup C, 35·3% (26·9 to 44·5) for serogroup W, and 27·0% (19·4 to 35·8) for serogroup Y. MenABCWY reactogenicity was mostly of mild or moderate severity and transient, with similar frequencies of adverse events in the MenABCWY and 4CMenB groups and no safety concerns were identified. INTERPRETATION: This study demonstrates breadth of immune response against a panel of 110 MenB strains for the MenB component of the investigational MenABCWY vaccine, when administered as a 0-6 months schedule to the target population of adolescents and young adults, with predefined criteria for success met for both breadth of immune response endpoints and for non-inferiority versus 4CMenB. This investigational vaccine could provide broad meningococcal serogroup coverage in a simplified immunisation schedule, thus aiding the public health attempt in preventing invasive meningococcal disease due to five Neisseria meningitidis serogroups in adolescents and young adults.

BACKGROUND: Advances in paediatric type 1 diabetes management and increased use of diabetes technology have led to improvements in glycaemia, reduced risk of severe hypoglycaemia, and improved quality of life. Since 1993, progressively lower HbA1c targets have been set. The aim of this study was to perform a longitudinal analysis of HbA1c, treatment regimens, and acute complications between 2013 and 2022 using data from eight national and one international paediatric diabetes registries. METHODS: In this longitudinal analysis, we obtained data from the Australasian Diabetes Data Network, Czech National Childhood Diabetes Register, Danish Registry of Childhood and Adolescent Diabetes, Diabetes Prospective Follow-up Registry, Norwegian Childhood Diabetes Registry, England and Wales' National Paediatric Diabetes Audit, Swedish Childhood Diabetes Registry, T1D Exchange Quality Improvement Collaborative, and the SWEET initiative. All children (aged ≤18 years) with type 1 diabetes with a duration of longer than 3 months were included. Investigators compared data from 2013 to 2022; analyses performed on data were pre-defined and conducted separately by each respective registry. Data on demographics, HbA1c, treatment regimen, and event rates of diabetic ketoacidosis and severe hypoglycaemia were collected. ANOVA was performed to compare means between registries and years. Joinpoint regression analysis was used to study significant breakpoints in temporal trends. FINDINGS: In 2022, data were available for 109 494 children from the national registries and 35 590 from SWEET. Between 2013 and 2022, the aggregated mean HbA1c decreased from 8·2% (95% CI 8·1-8·3%; 66·5 mmol/mol [65·2-67·7]) to 7·6% (7·5-7·7; 59·4mmol/mol [58·2-60·5]), and the proportion of participants who had achieved HbA1c targets of less than 7% (<53 mmol/mol) increased from 19·0% to 38·8% (p<0·0001). In 2013, the aggregate event rate of severe hypoglycaemia rate was 3·0 events per 100 person-years (95% CI 2·0-4·9) compared with 1·7 events per 100 person-years (1·0-2·7) in 2022. In 2013, the aggregate event rate of diabetic ketoacidosis was 3·1 events per 100 person-years (95% CI 2·0-4·8) compared with 2·2 events per 100 person-years (1·4-3·4) in 2022. The proportion of participants with insulin pump use increased from 42·9% (95% CI 40·4-45·5) in 2013 to 60·2% (95% CI 57·9-62·6) in 2022 (mean difference 17·3% [13·8-20·7]; p<0·0001), and the proportion of participants using continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) increased from 18·7% (95% CI 9·5-28·0) in 2016 to 81·7% (73·0-90·4) in 2022 (mean difference 63·0% [50·3-75·7]; p<0·0001). INTERPRETATION: Between 2013 and 2022, glycaemic outcomes have improved, parallel to increased use of diabetes technology. Many children had HbA1c higher than the International Society for Pediatric and Adolescent Diabetes (ISPAD) 2022 target. Reassuringly, despite targeting lower HbA1c, severe hypoglycaemia event rates are decreasing. Even for children with type 1 diabetes who have access to specialised diabetes care and diabetes technology, further advances in diabetes management are required to assist with achieving ISPAD glycaemic targets.

PURPOSE: The presence of MYC and BCL2 translocations (ie, double-hit lymphoma, DHL) in large B-cell lymphoma (LBCL) is associated with reduced chemosensitivity, but less is known on its impact on radiotherapy (RT) efficacy. METHODS AND MATERIALS: Patients with LBCL who received their first course of RT for relapsed/refractory disease between 2008 and 2020 were eligible if there was adequate pathologic evaluation to be categorized as DHL versus non-DHL as per the World Health Organization (fifth edition). Separate analyses were conducted by treatment intent. Predictors for response (complete and partial) and local recurrence (LR) were evaluated using Cox regression analysis. LR analysis was restricted to curative-intent patients to ensure adequate follow-up. RESULTS: Three hundred and eighty-three patients (102 DHL, 281 non-DHL, and 44% curative) were treated at 447 sites. Median time from diagnosis to RT was 11.6 months, with 38.7% of patients having primary chemorefractory disease, 37.4% having received >2 lines of systemic therapy, and 24% status post-stem cell transplant. Median biological equivalent dose (alpha/beta: 10) was 28 Gy (range: 3.2-60.0) for palliative and 46.9 Gy (range: 6.4-84.0) for curative-intent patients. With a median follow-up of 41.1 and 41.5 months among curative and palliative patients, respectively, the response was high (81.1% curative, 60.1% palliative). On univariate analysis, DHL pathology was not associated with RT response in either curative or palliative patients. Among curative patients, 2-year LR rate was 38.8%. On multivariable analysis, DHL pathology was associated with a 2 times higher risk of LR (95% CI: 1.05-3.67, P = .03), with a crude LR rate of 42.9% (DHL) versus 28.9% (non-DHL). RT was well tolerated with low rates of grade 3 or higher acute toxicity (1.8% curative, 2.9% palliative). CONCLUSIONS: Relapsed/refractory LBCL remains radioresponsive with a 60%-80% response rate to RT. Although DHL pathology does not appear to influence RT response, its presence is associated with higher rates of LR, suggesting that it may be more radioresistant.

BACKGROUND: Robot-assisted minimally invasive esophagectomy (RAMIE) is increasingly adopted in centers worldwide, with ongoing refinements to enhance results. This study aims to assess the current state of RAMIE worldwide and to identify potential areas for improvement. METHODS: This descriptive study analyzed prospective data from esophageal cancer patients who underwent transthoracic RAMIE in Upper GI International Robotic Association (UGIRA) centers. Main endpoints included textbook outcome rate, surgical techniques, and perioperative outcomes. Analyses were performed separately for intrathoracic (Ivor-Lewis) and cervical anastomosis (McKeown), divided into three time cohorts (2016-2018, 2019-2020, 2021-2023). A sensitivity analysis was conducted with cases after the learning curve (> 70 cases). RESULTS: Across 28 UGIRA centers, 2012 Ivor-Lewis and 1180 McKeown procedures were performed. Over the time cohorts, textbook outcome rates were 39%, 48%, and 49% for Ivor-Lewis, and 49%, 63%, and 61% for McKeown procedures, respectively. Fully robotic procedures accounted for 66%, 51%, and 60% of Ivor-Lewis procedures, and 53%, 81%, and 66% of McKeown procedures. Lymph node yield showed 27, 30, and 30 nodes in Ivor-Lewis procedures, and 26, 26, and 34 nodes in McKeown procedures. Furthermore, high mediastinal lymphadenectomy was performed in 65%, 43%, and 37%, and 70%, 48%, and 64% of Ivor-Lewis and McKeown procedures, respectively. Anastomotic leakage rates were 22%, 22%, and 16% in Ivor-Lewis cases, and 14%, 12%, and 11% in McKeown cases. Hospital stay was 13, 14, and 13 days for Ivor-Lewis procedures, and 12, 9, and 11 days for McKeown procedures. In Ivor-Lewis and McKeown, respectively, the sensitivity analysis revealed textbook outcome rates of 43%, 54%, and 51%, and 47%, 64%, and 64%; anastomotic leakage rates of 28%, 18%, and 15%, and 13%, 11%, and 10%; and hospital stay of 11, 12, and 12 days, and 10, 9, and 9 days. CONCLUSIONS: This study demonstrates favorable outcomes over time in achieving textbook outcome after RAMIE. Areas for improvement include a reduction of anastomotic leakage and shortening of hospital stay.

The association of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) and graft-versus-leukemia (GVL) effects after allogeneic stem-cell transplantation (SCT) is well-established but was not confirmed in the modern era and following post-transplant cyclophosphamide (PTCy). We assessed GVHD/ GVL association in AML patients following HLA-matched SCT with standard calcineurin-based (n = 12,653, 57% with additional in-vivo T-cell depletion) or PTCy-based (n = 508) GVHD prophylaxis. Following standard prophylaxis, acute GVHD grade II-IV and III-IV, chronic GVHD, and extensive chronic GVHD rates were 23.8%, 7.5%, 37.0%, and 16.3%, respectively. Acute GVHD grade II and III-IV were associated with lower relapse [hazard-ratio (HR) 0.85, P = 0.002; HR 0.76, P = 0.003, respectively)], higher non-relapse mortality (NRM) (HR 1.5, P < 0.001; HR 6.21, P < 0.001) and lower overall survival (OS) (HR 1.49, P < 0.001; HR 6.1, P < 0.001). Extensive chronic GVHD predicted lower relapse (HR 0.69, P < 0.001), higher NRM (HR 2.83, P < 0.001), and lower OS (HR 2.74, P < 0.001). Following PTCy, GVHD rates were 22.8%, 6.2%, 35.5%, and 17.7%, respectively. Acute GVHD was not associated with relapse (HR 1.37, P = 0.15) but predicted higher NRM (HR 3.34, P < 0.001) and lower OS (HR 1.92, P = 0.001). Chronic GVHD was not prognostic for these outcomes. In conclusion, GVHD and GVL are strongly associated with contemporary SCT. However, following PTCy, GVHD is not associated with reduced relapse.
