{"title":"Trends in Thymic Epithelial Tumor Patients with Comorbid Autoimmune Disease","authors":"Aneesha Anand, Nikhitha Lavu, Kenneth A. Kesler, Patrick J. Loehrer","doi":"10.18060/27958","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.18060/27958","url":null,"abstract":"Thymic epithelial tumors (TETs) are rare malignancies originating from the thymus in the anterior mediastinum. TETs include thymic carcinoma and thymoma. Approximately 30-40% of thymomas have associated autoimmune paraneoplastic disorders, the most common being myasthenia gravis. A broad range of other paraneoplastic syndromes have also been reported. Currently, little is known about demographic or histological trends in thymoma patients with comorbid autoimmune disease. In this single institution retrospective chart review, we assessed the distribution of thymoma-associated paraneoplastic syndromes at the IU Simon Cancer Center (IUSCC) to identify trends within demographic and histological features. We created a database of IUSCC patients seen from 2000-2023 and identified 170 subjects with biopsy-proven malignant TET and associated autoimmune disease. Data was exported to excel and R for analysis. Factors analyzed included: age at diagnosis, sex assigned at birth, BMI, WHO (World Health Organization) classification, and Masaoka staging. Overall survival was also compared to matched controls without paraneoplastic syndrome. A total of 37 different paraneoplastic syndromes were identified in association with thymoma in IUSCC patients. The most prevalent was Myasthenia Gravis (110 patients), followed by Hypothyroidism (21 patients, 5 confirmed as Hashimoto’s thyroiditis), Good Syndrome (19 patients), and Pure Red Cell Aplasia (15 patients). Significant findings included: 36.4% of patients with paraneoplastic comorbidity had >1 paraneoplastic syndrome, 51.8% presented with Stage IV disease, and 40.4% had WHO Type B2 tumor pathology, with Type B3 being second most common (25%). No significant demographic associations were identified. 10-year survival of TET patients with paraneoplastic syndromes was not significantly different from those without (p= 0.721). These results indicate potential associations between thymoma staging and grading and development of paraneoplastic disease. Further analysis with a larger data set is warranted. Serum and blood test analysis may also elucidate reasons behind the development of paraneoplastic disease in thymoma patients. ","PeriodicalId":20522,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of IMPRS","volume":"42 22","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139533550","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Risacher","doi":"10.18060/27806","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.18060/27806","url":null,"abstract":"Background and Hypothesis:This project assessed brain activation during a scene encoding task in 4 groups: older adults who were cognitively normal (CN), subjective cognitive decline (SCD), mild cognitive impairment (MCI), and dementia due to Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Associations between scene encoding related brain activation and tau, amyloid, and other biomarkers were analyzed. Our hypothesis was that higher levels of cerebral tau and amyloid would be associated with reduced scene encoding activation. In addition, we hypothesized that scene encoding activation would be significantly different between cognitively normal and cognitively impaired groups. \u0000Methods:234 individuals from the Indiana Memory and Aging Study (79 CN, 67 SCD, 70 MCI, and 18 AD) completed structural and functional MRI, clinical/cognitive assessment and biomarkers; 155 underwent amyloid ([18F]florbetapir/[18F]florbetaben) PET, while 111 also underwent [18F]flortaucipir PET. For the fMRI scene encoding task, participants were asked to view and remember a set of images. A one-way ANOVA test was used to analyze scene encoding related activation differences among the 4 groups. Regression was used to identify associations between scene encoding activation and tau and amyloid deposition. \u0000Results:Significant differences in activation were observed between the MCI and CN groups, including less activation in widespread regions during the task and reduced deactivation in the default mode network (DMN) in MCI participants relative to CN. Significant associations between higher amyloid and tau deposition and altered scene encoding activation were also observed. \u0000Conclusion and Potential Impact:Cognitive decline is associated with activation changes during scene encoding, as well as reduced deactivation in the DMN, especially in the posterior cingulate region. Higher cerebral amyloid and tau deposition predicted decreased scene encoding related activation. These findings are consistent with models linking cognitive status, functional brain activation during episodic encoding, and pathophysiological processes in the AD continuum.","PeriodicalId":20522,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of IMPRS","volume":"44 12","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139533743","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Yang","doi":"10.18060/27717","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.18060/27717","url":null,"abstract":"Background & Hypothesis: Lyme disease, caused by the bacterium Borrelia burgdorferi, is the most common vector-borne infectious disease in the United States. Although easily treated with antibiotics, undiagnosed cases may develop into persistent infections with complications including Lyme carditis, neuroborreliosis, & arthritis. VlsE antigen variation is one of the major mechanisms employed by B. burgdorferi to establish persistent infection. We hypothesize that YebC modulates VlsE expression and antigen variation, enabling the shift from acute to persistent infection. \u0000Materials & Methods: C3H/HeN or C3H/SCID mice were infected with the B. burgdorferi strain 5A4NP1, yebC mutant, and yebC complement at a dose of 105 or 106 spirochetes. Mice were sacrificed at days 7, 30, 60, and 90 post-infection and tissue samples were subjected to RNA and DNA extraction. \u0000Results: YebC levels were closely associated with the upregulation of vlsE and the downregulation of ospC in vitro and in vivo. The yebC mutant displayed loss of infectivity in C3H/HeN mice, and reduced VlsE antigen variation. \u0000Conclusion & Impact: This data demonstrates that YebC of B burgdorferi can regulate the frequency of vlsE recombination and modulates the inverse regulation of OspC and VlsE. This new factor may serve as an avenue for developing drugs which can target vlsE recombination to combat complications of persistent Lyme disease.","PeriodicalId":20522,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of IMPRS","volume":"34 16","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139533885","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Comparing Complication Rates of Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement to Surgical Aortic Valve Replacement","authors":"Jacob Hedberg, James Butler","doi":"10.18060/27857","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.18060/27857","url":null,"abstract":"Background/Objective: Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) and surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) are the two procedures used to treat severe symptomatic aortic stenosis. One of the most feared outcomes of both procedures is stroke. Conduction abnormalities and arrhythmias after TAVR are relatively common, but few studies have been done comparing the rate of these events between TAVR and SAVR. The objective of our study is to find if there are any differences between the rates of stroke, conduction abnormalities, and arrhythmias between patients that have undergone TAVR and patients that have undergone SAVR.\u0000Methods: The CRC/Sidus Real World Evidence Cardiology Dataset was used to obtain samples for this project. Patients who underwent TAVR and SAVR were identified using CPT codes. These two cohorts of patients were tracked for complications between 0 to 30 days after the procedure and between 0 days to 1 year after the procedure using ICD-10 codes.\u0000Results: Patients who underwent TAVR (n=3621) were much more likely to have conduction disorders and arrhythmias both in the 0-30 day range and 0 days-1 year range after the procedure compared to patients who underwent SAVR (n=2137). Cerebral infarction and transient cerebral ischemic attack rates were also higher in the TAVR group. Mortality rates for TAVR were lower than mortality rates for SAVR, both 30 days and 1 year after the procedure.\u0000Conclusion/Impact: TAVR has revolutionized aortic valve replacement and allowed many patients with aortic stenosis (many of whom are at high surgical risk) a minimally invasive option to improve their quality of life. Finding ways to reduce the rates of stroke, arrhythmias, and conduction abnormalities; for example, through improved devices and techniques, and improvedanti-thrombotic therapy, is extremely important as TAVR becomes more and more widely utilized.","PeriodicalId":20522,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of IMPRS","volume":"46 19","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139534070","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Plexiform neurofibromas (PN) are present in about half of cases and can transform (lifetime risk of 8-13%) into malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor (MPNST), a highly aggressive and metastatic sarcoma with poor survival. Unfortunately, there are currently no reliable biomarkers to identify PN at risk of undergoing malignant transformation. Our research has revealed that a subset of benign-appearing and atypical PN exhibit deregulated immune surveillance and T-cell infiltration that precede malignant transformation. In this study, we are analyzing tumor microenvironment and immune landscape in NF1-related tissue specimens to identify biomarkers of disease progression. To power these studies, this project focused on constructing a dataset of NF1-related samples to be analyzed. \u0000Methods:701 patients were identified via Cerner billing codes and pathology archives. De-identified clinical data, including presenting symptoms, relevant clinical history, pathology diagnoses, disease features, prior chemotherapeutics/radiation, prior gene profiling, and imaging features were collected. \u0000Results: We selected 86 patients with a total of 175 samples. 81% of patients had a clinical diagnosis of NF1, and 6% had a history of MPNST. Out of the 175 samples, 54 were in the head and neck, 42 in the thorax, 28 in the lower extremity, 27 in the upper extremity, 26 in the pelvis/abdomen, and 15 in the paraspinal region. The leading causes of procedures were pain (41%), growth (40%), and concern for malignancy (27%). The most common tissue diagnoses were neurofibroma (51.4%), PN (20%), and undefined-grade MPNST (11%). Out of the 46 MPNSTs, 30 were primary tumors, 4 metastases, and 12 local recurrences. \u0000Conclusion and Potential Impact:The results of this study will provide valuable insights to inform preclinical models of NF1-tumorigenesis to validate these findings and identify novel treatment approaches for individuals affected by these rare but devastating tumors.","PeriodicalId":20522,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of IMPRS","volume":"47 13","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139534083","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Using this data, Vizient calculates an expected LOS by DRGs and adjusts for severity of illness and other factors for inter-hospital comparison. Because LOS reduction is an important mechanism for improving outcomes and efficiency of care, The Department of Dermatology would like to understand which dermatologic consults are exceeding the Vizient expected LOS (LOS index > 1).   \u0000Project Methods: Consecutive charts of 663 patients with dermatology-related diagnoses in the inpatient setting at IU University and Methodist Hospitals between January 2021 and January 2023 were reviewed.

The use of perioperative subcutaneous heparin (SqH) along with a surgical drain has been shown to be effective in preventing VTE in IPP patients, without increasing hematoma formation. Not all prosthetic surgeons utilize surgical drains postoperatively. In this study we aim to assess the safety and efficacy of perioperative SqH in preventing VTE in IPP patients without the use of a surgical drain. \u0000Methods: This was a retrospective review from January 2021-July 2023 of patients who underwent IPP placement or explant and replacement at a single institution. Patient demographics, comorbidities, Caprini risk factor scores, VTE risk factors, and 90-day postoperative complications, including hematoma formation, were reviewed. Statistical analyses were performed comparing these variables in men who received SqH and those who did not. \u0000Results: We reviewed data for 240 patients; 53% (n=127) received perioperative SqH. The incidence of VTE was 0.9% (1/113) in the non-SqH group, and no VTE was recorded in the group receiving SqH. There was no statistical significance in hematoma formation betweengroups (SqH 5.5% vs. non-SqH 6.2% p=.898).

Miller, Michael Murphy","doi":"10.18060/27734","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.18060/27734","url":null,"abstract":"Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a vascular disease process whereby the aorta expands to apoint where rupture may occur. This serious condition is diagnosed in approximately 200,000 people in the United States per year and accounts for over 15,000 deaths annually. The only medical intervention proven to reduce the risk of AAA rupture is surgical repair; however, such repair is associated with high risk of death, reduced quality of life, and high expense. AAA is caused by the weakening of the artery wall due to inflammation-induced destruction of its structural components. Our clinical data shows increased levels of circulating elastin degradation products in patients with AAA, especially smokers, compared to risk factor matched controls. This observation led us to hypothesize that an immune reaction to elastin fragments initiates the inflammatory cascade in the aorta that leads to AAA formation. To test this hypothesis, C57BL/6 mice were injected with poly(lactide-co-glycolide) nanoparticle-encapsulated IL-10 to induce immune tolerance or nanoparticle-encapsulated control ovalbumin. Injection of elastin fragments was performed 7 days later to induce an immune response. AAA of the infrarenal aorta was induced by topical application of elastase during laparotomy procedure 14 days after nanoparticle injection. Aorta diameter was measured 16 days post-operatively with Microfil. Immunologic changes were evaluated by cytokine analysis, Tr1/Th17 cell ratio inperipheral blood, and splenic Th17 and Tr1 response to elastin. Based on prior work, we expect that induction of elastin tolerance using poly(lactide-co-glycolide) nanoparticle-encapsulated IL-10 will suppress abdominal aortic aneurysm expansion and promote an anti-inflammatoryenvironment characterized by increased Tr1/Th17 cell ratio, increased levels of anti-inflammatory cytokines, and decreased pro-inflammatory cytokine expression.","PeriodicalId":20522,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of IMPRS","volume":" 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139625233","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
