Minimal residual disease (MRD) levels monitored by polymerase chain reaction are associated with outcomes in acute myeloid leukemia with RUNX1-RUNX1T1. The objectives of our study were to quantitatively compare the predictive value of MRD reduction and absolute copies and assess the influence of other prognostic factors on MRD. A total of 224 consecutive patients with RUNX1-RUNX1T1 aged ≤55 years were included in the MRD study. Patients received different induction regimens including conventional- or intermediate-dose cytarabine plus low-dose daunorubicin and omacetaxine mepesuccinate or daunorubicin at 60 mg/m2/day on days 1-3. As continuous variables, both MRD reduction and absolute MRD level were significantly associated with cumulative incidence of relapse (CIR; hazard ratio [HR] = 1.610, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.370-1.890, p less then 0.001, and HR = 1.170, 95% CI 1.120-1.230, p less then 0.001, respectively). For the CIR, the area under the curves (AUCs) of MRD reduction and absolute MRD level after the first consolidation chemotherapy were 0.629 and 0.629, respectively. Intermediate-dose cytarabine induction (HR = 0.494; p = 0.039 for CIR, HR, 0.451; p = 0.014 for RFS, and HR, 0.262; p = 0.006 for OS) remained significantly associated with outcomes after adjusting for MRD reduction after the first consolidation therapy (HR = 1.456, p less then 0.001, for CIR; HR = 1.467, p = 0.001, for relapse-free survival; and HR = 1.468, p = 0.014, for overall survival) in multivariate analyses. In conclusion, the prognostic significance of MRD after the first consolidation therapy was influenced by the induction regimen in acute myeloid leukemia with RUNX1-RUNX1T1.Poly (ADP-ribosyl)ation has central functions in maintaining genome stability, including facilitating DNA replication and repair. In cancer cells these processes are frequently disrupted, and thus interfering with poly (ADP-ribosyl)ation can exacerbate inherent genome instability and induce selective cytotoxicity. Indeed, inhibitors of poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) are having a major clinical impact in treating women with BRCA-mutant ovarian cancer, based on a defect in homologous recombination. However, only around half of ovarian cancers harbour defects in homologous recombination, and most sensitive tumours eventually acquire PARP inhibitor resistance with treatment. Thus, there is a pressing need to develop alternative treatment strategies to target tumours with both inherent and acquired resistance to PARP inhibition. Several novel inhibitors of poly (ADP-ribose)glycohydrolase (PARG) have been described, with promising anti-cancer activity in vitro that is distinct from PARP inhibitors. Here we discuss, the role of poly (ADP-ribosyl)ation in genome stability, and the potential for PARG inhibitors as a complementary strategy to PARP inhibitors in the treatment of ovarian cancer.Consistently linked with children's food consumption are food availability and accessibility. However, less is known about potential individual differences among young children in their susceptibility to home food environments. The purpose of the study was to examine whether the association between home food availability and accessibility of sugar-rich foods and drinks (SFD) or fruits and vegetables (FV) and children's consumption of these foods differ according to their temperament. The study used two cross-sectional datasets collected as part of the Increased Health and Wellbeing in Preschools (DAGIS) study 1) a cross-sectional data of 864 children aged 3-6 years old collected between fall 2015 and spring 2016, and 2) an intervention baseline data of 802 children aged 3-6 collected in fall 2017. Parents reported their children's temperament, consumption of FV and SFD, and home availability and accessibility of SFD and FV. Examination of whether associations between home availability and accessibility of FV and their consumption differ according to children's temperament involved using linear regression models. Similar models were used to examine association between home availability and accessibility of SFD and their consumption, and the moderating role of temperament. The association between home accessibility of SFD and their consumption frequency was dependent on the level of children's negative affectivity. More frequent consumption of SFD was observed with higher home accessibility of SFD. The association was stronger in children with higher scores in negative affectivity. No other interactions were found. Children with higher negative affectivity are possibly more vulnerable to food cues in the home environment than children with lower negative affectivity. Consideration of children's individual characteristics is necessary in supporting their healthy eating.Time-restricted eating (TRE) is a novel intervention that allows eating and drinking within a certain time window and has shown positive effects on body weight in few studies. Weight loss strategies that easily can be integrated into daily life are needed, but knowledge about how TRE affects daily life is lacking. This study examined how individuals having overweight or obesity at high risk of type 2 diabetes performed TRE in daily life, with a focus on how the timing of eating changed the organisation and rhythms of daily activities. PDTC Semi-structured interviews were conducted with participants enrolled in a randomised controlled trial studying the effect of a 12-week TRE intervention focusing on a self-selected daily 10-h window between 6 AM and 8 PM. Seventeen participants from the intervention group were interviewed at baseline and end of intervention, and data were analysed using a thematic analysis approach. Participants found TRE simple and appealing due to the unrestricted dietary intake. In general, participants did not change their food preferences and continued to eat three main daily meals. However, participants had to increase their awareness of the time of day, reshuffle ordinary daily activities and plan their intake more carefully. Two participants reported fully adherence every day, whereas all other participants reported one to several episodes of intake outside their window during the 12 weeks. Social evening activities and collective rhythms were largest barriers. Our findings suggest that TRE interventions would benefit from a broader perspective on daily life and an expanded view on families and friends as joint units of intervention. TRE interventions should consider individuals' daily rhythms and help them develop practical solutions to integrating new eating practices.
