We examined safety outcomes of interest (SOI) and overall survival (OS) among lung cancer patients initiating crizotinib and erlotinib in routine clinical practice.

This descriptive cohort study used routinely collected health data in Denmark, Finland, Sweden, the Netherlands, and the United States (US) during 2011-2017, following crizotinib commercial availability in each country. Among crizotinib or erlotinib initiators, we reported baseline characteristics and incidence rates and cumulative incidences of the SOI - hepatotoxicity, pneumonitis/interstitial lung disease, QT interval prolongation-related events, bradycardia, vision disorders, renal cysts, edema, leukopenia, neuropathy, photosensitivity, malignant melanoma, gastrointestinal perforation, cardiac failure and OS. Results from the European Union (EU) countries were combined using meta-analysis; results from the US were reported separately.

There were 456 patients in the crizotinib cohort and 2957 patients in the erlotinib cohort. Rates of the SOI per 1000 person-years in the crizotinib cohort ranged from 0 to 65 in the EU and from 0 to 374 in the US. Rates of the SOI per 1000 person-years in the erlotinib cohort ranged from 0 to 91 in the EU and from 3 to 394 in the US. In the crizotinib cohort, 2-year OS was ~50% in both EU and US. In the erlotinib cohort, 2-year OS was 21% in the EU and 35% in the US.

This study describes clinical outcomes among lung cancer patients initiating crizotinib or erlotinib in routine clinical practice. Differences between SOI rates in EU and US may be partially attributable to differences in the underlying databases.

In contrast to adults, only limited data are available on the human papillomavirus (HPV)-type spectrum in anogenital warts (AGW) of children.

This study aimed to evaluate the HPV-type spectrum in AGW of prepubertal children.

In a retrospective German multicentre study, HPV genotyping was performed in AGW biopsies of 55 1- to 12-year-old children using HPV group-specific PCRs followed by hybridization with type-specific probes or sequence analysis.

Human papillomavirus-DNA was found in 53 of the 55 AGW. In 58.5% (31/53) of the HPV-positive AGW, mucosal HPV types were detected. HPV6 (27/53, 50.9%) was the predominant type. 43.4% (23/53) of the lesions were induced by cutaneous HPV types (HPV2, HPV27, HPV57). Mucosal HPV types were significantly more common in children under 5years of age than in children 5years of age and older (22/25, 88.0% [95% CI 70.0-95.8] vs. 9/28, 32.1% [95% CI 17.9-50.7], P<0.001). In contrast, cutaneous HPV types were significantly more prevalent in the 5- to 12-year age group (4/25, 16.0% [95% CI 6.4-34.7] vs. 19/28, 67.9% [95% CI 49.3-82.1], P<0.001).

Anogenital warts in 5- to 12-year-old children are frequently associated with cutaneous HPV types, possibly due to horizontal transmission. HPV typing, in addition to comprehensive clinical and psychosocial evaluation, can potentially help in the assessment of these cases.

What is the central question of this study? Are spinal and/or supraspinal perturbations implicated in central fatigue induced in the plantar flexor muscles following prolonged trail running races? What is the main finding and its importance? The study confirmed the presence of central fatigue following various trail running distances from 40 to 170km. The reduction in the V-wave in conjunction with the lack of change in the H-reflex suggests that a major component of this central fatigue may arise from supraspinal mechanisms in the plantar flexor muscles.

Trail running races are known to induce considerable impairments in neuromuscular function of which central mechanisms are a substantial component. However, the loci of this central fatigue (i.e. supraspinal and/or spinal) is not well identified. The aim of this study was to better understand central fatigue aetiology induced in the plantar flexor muscles by various trail running distances from 40 to 170km. Eighteen runners participated in the study and (-28%; P = 0.031), with no changes for the H-reflex in soleus (P = 0.577). The present study confirmed the presence of central fatigue following trail running exercise. check details The reduction in the V-wave in conjunction with the lack of change in the H-reflex suggests that a major component of this central fatigue may arise from supraspinal mechanisms.In this research, 10- to 12- and 13- to 15-year-old children were presented with very simple addition and multiplication problems involving operands from 1 to 4. Critically, the arithmetic sign was presented before the operands in half of the trials, whereas it was presented at the same time as the operands in the other half. Our results indicate that presenting the 'x' sign before the operands of a multiplication problem does not speed up the solving process, irrespective of the age of children. In contrast, presenting the '+' sign before the operands of an addition problem facilitates the solving process, but only in 13 to 15-year-old children. Such priming effects of the arithmetic sign have been previously interpreted as the result of a pre-activation of an automated counting procedure, which can be applied as soon as the operands are presented. Therefore, our results echo previous conclusions of the literature that simple additions but not multiplications can be solved by fast counting procedures. More importantly, we show here that these procedures are possibly convoked automatically by children after the age of 13 years. At a more theoretical level, our results do not support the theory that simple additions are solved through retrieval of the answers from long-term memory by experts. Rather, the development of expertise for mental addition would consist in an acceleration of procedures until automatization.
