8, mean change [95%CI] 0.007 [-0.04;0.06]), a post hoc linear regression analysis showed that change in mindfulness and 5-HT2AR correlated negatively (β [95%CI] = -5.0 [-9.0; -0.9], pFWER= 0.046). In conclusion, we confirm that psilocybin intake is associated with long-term increases in Openness and - as a novel finding - mindfulness, which may be a key element of psilocybin therapy. Cerebral 5-HT2AR binding did not change across individuals but the negative association between changes in 5-HT2AR binding and mindfulness suggests that individual change in 5-HT2AR levels after psilocybin is variable and represents a potential mechanism influencing long-term effects of psilocybin on mindfulness. V.BACKGROUND/PURPOSE Factors affecting the anti-incontinence efficacy of a tailored anterior transvaginal mesh (ATVM) surgery are undetermined. Thus, our aim was to investigate predictors for anti-incontinence efficacy of this ATVM surgery. METHODS Medical records of women with pelvic organ prolapse and concomitant evident or occult urodynamic stress incontinence, who underwent the ATVM surgery but without concomitant anti-incontinence surgery, were reviewed. RESULTS A total of 134 women were reviewed, including those who underwent ATVM only (n = 45), ATVM and posterior transvaginal mesh surgery (n = 88), and ATVM with total vaginal hysterectomy (n = 1). Multivariable analysis revealed that stage of cystocele (coefficient = 56.4), functional profile length (cm, coefficient = 61.1) and the score of general health perceptions in the King's Health Questionnaire (coefficient = -3.3) were independent predictors of the percentage change in pad weight from baseline. Seven (5.2%) women were found to have recurrent or persistent stress urinary incontinence, and 6 of the above 7 women underwent transobturator mid-urethral sling procedure. Free of further anti-incontinence surgery probabilities were 94.7% and 89.2% at 3 and 6 years after surgery, respectively. Functional profile length (hazard ratio = 2.61) was also identified as a predictor for further anti-incontinence surgery. CONCLUSION Lesser degree of cystocele, shorter functional profile length and poorer general health perceptions were predictors of greater anti-incontinence effect after the tailored ATVM surgery. Besides, longer functional profile length was also a predictor for further anti-incontinence surgery after the ATVM surgery. V.OBJECTIVE The main goal of the study was to predict individual patients' future mental healthcare consumption, and thereby enhancing the design of an efficient demand-oriented mental healthcare system by focusing on a patient population associated with intensive mental healthcare consumption. Factors that affect the mental healthcare consumption of service users with non-affective psychosis were identified, and subsequently used in a prognostic model to predict future healthcare consumption. METHOD This study was a secondary analysis of an existing dataset from the GROUP study. Based on mental healthcare consumption, patients with non-affective psychosis were divided into two groups low (N = 579) and high (N = 488) intensive mental healthcare consumers. Three different techniques from the field of machine learning were applied on crosssectional data to identify risk factors logistic regression, classification tree and a random forest. Subsequently, the same techniques were applied longitudinally in order to predict future healthcare consumption. RESULTS Identified variables that affected healthcare consumption were the number of psychotic episodes, paid employment, engagement in social activities, previous healthcare consumption, and met needs. Analyses showed that the random forest method is best suited to model risk factors, and that these relations predict future healthcare consumption (AUC 0.71, PPV 0.65). CONCLUSIONS Machine learning techniques provide valuable information for identifying risk factors in psychosis. They may thus help clinicians optimize allocation of mental healthcare resources by predicting future healthcare consumption. BACKGROUND This study aimed to investigate the attitude of students at Shanghai University of Traditional Chinese Medicine toward organ transplantation and donation after cardiac death (DCD). MATERIAL AND METHODS A questionnaire including 16 single-choice questions about organ transplantation and donation was designed, and a survey was conducted using this questionnaire on 300 randomly selected respondents at Shanghai University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Shanghai, China. RESULTS The ratio of male to female was 12.4. Of the participants, 98.1% had heard of organ transplantation, and 68.2% had received the information through network news. NVP-TAE684 molecular weight Only 10.6% expressed a positive attitude toward organ transplantation in China. Further, 39.8% of the participants were willing to donate their organs after death, while 51.9% of the participants hesitated because of perceived opacity in how donated organs were used. Even among those who did not share this concern, only 46.2% considered it. However, 80.7% were in favor of organ donation between relatives. Separately, 67.4% and 60.2% of the participants were interested in participating in activities and publicity related to organ donation, respectively. CONCLUSIONS A majority of the participants had an understanding of organ transplantation and had obtained this information through media. Most showed a positive attitude toward donation between relatives, but only some of them indicated willingness to donate their organs. Generally, acceptance and awareness of organ transplantation need to be improved. Media outreach and education might have a profound influence. BACKGROUND Lung transplantation (LTx) is a last treatment option for patients with an end-stage pulmonary disease. Chronic lung allograft dysfunction, which generally manifests as bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome (BOS), is a major long-term survival limitation. During injury, inflammation and BOS monocytes are recruited. We determined whether changes in count, subset distribution, and functionality by surface marker expression coincided with BOS development. METHODS Fresh whole-blood samples were analyzed from 44 LTx patients, including 17 patients diagnosed with BOS, and compared with 10 age-matched healthy controls and 9 sarcoidosis patients as positive controls. Monocytes were quantified and analyzed using flow cytometry. Based on surface marker expression, classical, intermediate, and nonclassical subsets were determined, and functional phenotypes were investigated. RESULTS The absolute count of monocytes was decreased in LTx and slightly increased in BOS patients. The relative count shifted toward classical monocytes at the expense of nonclassical monocytes in LTx and BOS.
