- Aim: Strategic Targeting of Registries and International Database of Excellence (STRIDE) is an ongoing, multicenter registry providing real-world evidence regarding ataluren use in patients with nonsense mutation Duchenne muscular dystrophy (nmDMD). We examined the effectiveness of ataluren + standard of care (SoC) in the registry versus SoC alone in the Cooperative International Neuromuscular Research Group (CINRG) Duchenne Natural History Study (DNHS), DMD genotype-phenotype/-ataluren benefit correlations and ataluren safety. Patients & methods: Propensity score matching was performed to identify STRIDE and CINRG DNHS patients who were comparable in established disease progression predictors (registry cut-off date, 9 July 2018). Results & conclusion: Kaplan-Meier analyses demonstrated that ataluren + SoC significantly delayed age at loss of ambulation and age at worsening performance in timed function tests versus SoC alone (p <= 0.05). There were no DMD genotype-phenotype/ataluren benefit correlations. Ataluren was well tolerated. These results indicate that ataluren + SoC delays functional milestones of DMD progression in patients with nmDMD in routine clinical practice. ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT02369731. ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT02369731.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Objectives: To develop recommendations for clinical and radiographic criteria to help define the "acceptable" surgical correction of femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS) and identify/define complications postoperatively. Methods: A 3-phase modified Delphi study was conducted involving a case-based survey; a Likert/multiple choice-based survey concerning radiographic and physical examination characteristics to help define FAIS correction, as well as the prevalence and definition of potential postoperative complications; and 2 consensus meetings. Results: Of the 75 experts invited, 54 completed the Phase I survey, 50 completed the Phase II survey (72% and 67% response rate), and 50 participated in the Phase III consensus meetings. For both typical and atypical (complex) cases, there was consensus that fluoroscopy with multiple views and dynamic hip assessment should be used intraoperatively (96% and 100%, respectively). For typical FAIS cases, the Expert Panel agreed that Dunn lateral and anteroposterior radiographs were the most important radiographs to evaluate the hip postoperatively (88%, consensus). When asked about evaluating the correction of cam impingement postoperatively, 87% voted that they use subjective evaluation of the "sphericity" of the femoral head. In the case of focal and global pincer-type FAIS, there was consensus that the reduction or elimination of the crossover sign (84%) and lateral center-edge angle (91%) were important to inform the extent of the FAIS correction. There was consensus for recommending further investigation at 6 months postoperatively if hip pain had increased/plateaued (92% agreed); that additional investigation and treatment should occur between 6 and 12 months (90% agreed); and that a reoperation may be recommended at 12 months or later following this investigation period (89% agreed). Conclusions: This consensus project identified the importance of using fluoroscopy and dynamic hip assessment intraoperatively; Dunn lateral and anteroposterior view radiographs postoperatively; evaluating the "sphericity" of the femoral head for cam-type correction and the use of dynamic hip assessment; reducing/eliminating the crossover sign for focal pincertype FAIS; evaluating the lateral center-edge angle for global pincer-type FAIS; and avoiding overcorrection of pincer-type FAIS. In cases in which postoperative hip pain increased/plateaued, further investigation and treatment is warranted between 6 and 12 months, and a reoperation may be recommended at a minimum of 12 months depending on the cause of the hip pain. Clinical Relevance: Hip arthroscopy surgeons have yet to reach a firm agreement on what constitutes an "acceptable" or "good" surgery radiographically and how they can achieve desired clinical outcomes. Although this was a comprehensive effort, more study is needed to determine therapeutic thresholds that can be universally applied.

- Purpose of review Myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) is a severe, progressive genetic disease that affects between 1 in 3,000 and 8,000 individuals globally. No evidence-based guideline exists to inform the care of these patients, and most do not have access to multidisciplinary care centers staffed by experienced professionals, creating a clinical care deficit. Recent findings The Myotonic Dystrophy Foundation (MDF) recruited 66 international clinicians experienced in DM1 patient care to develop consensus-based care recommendations. MDF created a 2-step methodology for the project using elements of the Single Text Procedure and the Nominal Group Technique. The process generated a 4-page Quick Reference Guide and a comprehensive, 55-page document that provides clinical care recommendations for 19 discrete body systems and/or care considerations. The resulting recommendations are intended to help standardize and elevate care for this patient population and reduce variability in clinical trial and study environments.

Influence of an atomic resonance on the coherent control of the photoionization process
- 2022

Ingår i: Physical Review Research. - 2643-1564. ; 4:3
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- In coherent control schemes, pathways connecting an initial and a final state can be independently controlled by manipulating the complex amplitudes of their transition matrix elements. For paths characterized by the absorption of multiple photons, these quantities depend on the magnitude and phase between the intermediate steps, and are expected to be strongly affected by the presence of resonances. We investigate the coherent control of the photoemission process in neon using a phase-controlled two-color extreme ultraviolet pulse with frequency in proximity of an excited energy state. Using helium as a reference, we show that the presence of such a resonance in neon modifies the amplitude and phase of the asymmetric emission of photoelectrons. Theoretical simulations based on perturbation theory are in fair agreement with the experimental observations.

- Purpose The purpose of this study was to examine the existing literature to determine the dimensions of the acetabular labrum, with a focus on hypotrophic labra, including the modalities and accuracy of measurement, factors associated with smaller labra, and any impacts on surgical management. Methods Four databases (PubMed, Ovid [MEDLINE], Cochrane Database, and EMBASE) were searched from database inception to January 2020. Two reviewers screened the literature independently and in duplicate. Methodological quality of included papers was assessed using the Methodological Index for Non-Randomized Studies (MINORS) criteria. Where possible, data on labral size were combined using a random effects model. Results Twenty-one studies (5 level II, 9 level III, 7 level IV) were identified. This resulted in 6,159 patients (6,436 hips) with a mean age of 34.3 years (range 8.4-85). The patients were 67.3% female with an average follow-up of 57.3 months. There was no consistent definition of labral size quoted throughout the literature. The mean width on MRI/MRA was 7.3 mm (95% CI 6.9-7.8 mm), on computed tomography arthrography was 8.7 mm (95% CI 8.0-9.3), and during arthroscopy was 5.0 mm (95% CI 4.9-5.2). Inter-observer reliability was good to excellent in all modalities. Labral hypotrophy may be associated with increased acetabular coverage. Hypertrophic labra were highly associated with acetabular dysplasia (r = - 0.706, - 0.596, - 0.504, respectively; P < 0.001). Conclusion Labral width can reliably be measured utilizing imaging techniques including magnetic resonance and computed tomography. The pooled mean labral width was 6.2 mm, and height 4.6 mm. The establishment of a gold-standard of measurement on arthroscopy and advanced imaging would aid in clinical decision-making regarding treatment options for patients presenting with a painful hip, particularly those with hypoplastic labra, and provide radiological guidelines for standardized labrum size classifications.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Purpose: Anterior cruciate ligament tears and anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) are common in young athletes. The modifiable and non-modifiable factors contributing to ACLR failure and reoperation are incompletely understood. The purpose of this study was to determine ACLR failure rates in a physically high-demand population and identify the patient-specific risk factors, including prolonged time between diagnosis and surgical correction, that portend failure. Methods: A consecutive series of military service members with ACLR with and without concomitant procedures (meniscus [M] and/or cartilage [C]) done at military facilities between 2008 and 2011 was completed via the Military Health System Data Repository. This was a consecutive series of patients without a history of knee surgery for two years prior to the primary ACLR. Kaplan–Meier survival curves were estimated and evaluated with Wilcoxon test. Cox proportional hazard models calculated hazard ratios (HR) with 95% confidence intervals (95% CI) to identify demographic and surgical factors that influenced ACLR failure. Results: Of the 2735 primary ACLRs included in the study, 484/2,735 (18%) experienced ACLR failure within four years, including (261/2,735) (10%) undergoing revision ACLR and (224/2,735) (8%) due to medical separation. The factors that increased failure include Army Service (HR 2.19, 95% CI 1.67, 2.87), > 180days from injury to ACLR (HR 1.550, 95% CI 1.157, 2.076), tobacco use (HR 1.429 95% CI 1.174, 1.738), and younger patient age (HR 1.024, 95% CI 1.004, 1.044). Conclusion: The overall clinical failure rate of service members with ACLR is 17.7% with minimum four-year follow-up, where more patients are likely to fail due to revision surgery than medical separation. The cumulative probability of survival at 4 years was 78.5%. Smoking cessation and treating ACLR patients promptly are modifiable risk factors impacting either graft failure or medical separation. Level of evidence: Level III.

- Multivalency plays a major role in biological processes and particularly in the relationship between pathogenic microorganisms and their host that involves protein-glycan recognition. These interactions occur during the first steps of infection, for specific recognition between host and bacteria, but also at different stages of the immune response. The search for high-affinity ligands for studying such interactions involves the combination of carbohydrate head groups with different scaffolds and linkers generating multivalent glycocompounds with controlled spatial and topology parameters. By interfering with pathogen adhesion, such glycocompounds including glycopolymers, glycoclusters, glycodendrimers and glyconanoparticles have the potential to improve or replace antibiotic treatments that are now subverted by resistance. Multivalent glycoconjugates have also been used for stimulating the innate and adaptive immune systems, for example with carbohydrate-based vaccines. Bacteria present on their surfaces natural multivalent glycoconjugates such as lipopolysaccharides and S-layers that can also be exploited or targeted in anti-infectious strategies.

- With the quantity of genomic data increasing at an exponential rate, it is imperative that these data be captured electronically, in a standard format. Standardization activities must proceed within the auspices of open-access and international working bodies. To tackle the issues surrounding the development of better descriptions of genomic investigations, we have formed the Genomic Standards Consortium (GSC). Here, we introduce the minimum information about a genome sequence (MIGS) specification with the intent of promoting participation in its development and discussing the resources that will be required to develop improved mechanisms of metadata capture and exchange. As part of its wider goals, the GSC also supports improving the 'transparency' of the information contained in existing genomic databases.

Posterior tibial plateau impaction fractures are not associated with increased knee instability: a quantitative pivot shift analysis
- 2023

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Purpose This study aimed to evaluate posterolateral tibial plateau impaction fractures and how they contribute to rotatory knee laxity using quantitative pivot shift analysis. It was hypothesised that neither the presence of nor the degree of involvement of the plateau would affect rotatory knee laxity in the ACL-deficient knee. Methods A retrospective review of prospectively collected data on 284 patients with complete anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries was conducted. Posterolateral tibial plateau impaction fractures were identified on preoperative MRI. The patients were divided into two cohorts: "fractures" or "no fractures". The cohort with fractures was further categorised based on fracture morphology: "extra-articular", "articular-impaction", or "displaced-articular fragment". All data were collected during examination under anaesthesia performed immediately prior to ACL reconstruction. This included a standard pivot shift test graded by the examiner and quantitative data including anterior tibial translation (mm) via Rolimeter, quantitative pivot shift (QPS) examination ( mm) via PIVOT tablet technology, and acceleration (m/sec(2)) during the pivot shift test via accelerometer. Quantitative examinations were compared with the contralateral knee. Results There were 112 patients with posterolateral tibial plateau impaction fractures (112/284, 39%). Of these, 71/112 (63%) were "extra-articular", 28/112 (25%) "articular-impaction", and 13/112 ( 12%) "displaced-articular". Regarding the two groups with or without fractures, there was no difference in subjective pivot shift (2 +/- 0 vs 2 +/- 0, respectively, n.s.), QPS (2.4 +/- 1.6 mm vs 2.7 +/- 2.2 mm, respectively, n.s.), anterior tibial translation measurements (6 +/- 3 mm vs 5 +/- 3 mm, respectively, n.s.), or acceleration of the knee during the pivot (1.7 +/- 2.3 m/s(2) vs 1.8 +/- 3.1 m/s(2), respectively, n.s.). When the fractures were further subdivided, subgroup analysis revealed no significant differences noted in any of the measured examinations between the fracture subtypes. Conclusion This study showed that the posterolateral tibial plateau impaction fractures are commonly encountered in the setting of ACL tears; however, contrary to previous reports, they do not significantly increase rotatory knee laxity. This suggests that this type of concomitant injury may not need to be addressed at the time of ACL reconstruction.

- Purpose: Correct placement of the femoral and tibial tunnels in the anatomic footprint during anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) is paramount for restoring rotatory knee stability.Recent studies have looked at surgeon volume and its outcomes on procedures such as total knee arthroplasty and infection rates, but only few studies have specifically examined tunnel placement after ACLR based on surgeon volume. The purpose of this study was to compare the placement of femoral and tibial tunnels during ACLR between high-volume and low-volume surgeons. It was hypothesized that high-volume surgeons would have more anatomic tunnel placement compared with low-volume surgeons. Methods: A retrospective review of all ACLR performed between 2015 and 2019 at an integrated health care system consisting of both academic and community hospitals with 68 orthopaedic surgeons was conducted. Surgeon volume was categorized as less than 35 ACLR per year (low volume) and 35 or more ACLR per year (high volume).Femoral tunnel placement for each patient was determined using an exact strict lateral radiograph (less than 6mm of offset between the posterior halves of the medial and lateral condyles) taken after the primary ACLR using the quadrant method. The centre of the femoral tunnel was measured in relation to the posterior–anterior (PA) and proximal–distal (PD) dimensions (normal centre of anatomic footprint: PA 25% and PD 29%). Tibial tunnel placement for each patient was determined on the same lateral radiographs by measuring the mid-sagittal tibial diameter and the centre of the tibial attachment area of the ACL from the anterior tibial margin (normal centre of anatomic footprint: 43%). Each lateral radiograph was reviewed by one of two blinded reviewers. Results: A total of 4500 patients were reviewed, of which 645 patients met all the inclusion/exclusion criteria and were included in the final analysis. There were 228 patients in the low-volume group and 417 patients in the high-volume group. Low-volume surgeons performed a mean of 5 ACLRs per year, whereas surgeons in the high-volume group performed a mean of 40 ACLRs per year. In the PA dimension, the low-volume group had significantly more anterior femoral tunnel placement compared with the high-volume group (32 ± 10% vs 28 ± 9%, p < 0.01). In the PD dimension, the low-volume group had statistically significant more proximal femoral tunnel placement compared to the high-volume group (32 ± 9% vs 35 ± 9%, p < 0.01). For the tibial tunnel, the low-volume group had significantly more posterior tibial tunnel placement compared with the high-volume group (41 ± 10% vs 38 ± 7%, p < 0.01). Conclusion: Low-volume surgeons placed their femoral tunnels significantly more anterior and proximal (high) during ACLR, and placed their tibial tunnels significantly more posterior, compared with high-volume surgeons. Prior research has indicated that anatomic placement of the femoral and tibial tunnels during ACLR leads to improved rotatory knee stability. The findings of this study demonstrate the importance of surgical volume and experience during ACLR.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The ultrafast structural dynamics of water following inner-shell ionization is a crucial issue in high-energy radiation chemistry. We have exposed isolated water molecules to a short x-ray pulse from a free-electron laser and detected momenta of all produced ions in coincidence. By combining experimental results and theoretical modeling, we can image dissociation dynamics of individual molecules in unprecedented detail. We reveal significant molecular structural dynamics in H2O2+, such as asymmetric deformation and bond-angle opening, leading to two-body or three-body fragmentation on a timescale of a few femtoseconds. We thus reconstruct several snapshots of structural dynamics at different time intervals, which highlight dynamical patterns that are relevant as initiating steps of subsequent radiation-damage processes.

Molecular Dissociative Ionization and Wave-Packet Dynamics Studied Using Two-Color XUV and IR Pump-Probe Spectroscopy

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- We present a combined theoretical and experimental study of ultrafast wave-packet dynamics in the dissociative ionization of H-2 molecules as a result of irradiation with an extreme-ultraviolet (XUV) pulse followed by an infrared (IR) pulse. In experiments where the duration of both the XUV and IR pulses are shorter than the vibrational period of H-2+, dephasing and rephasing of the vibrational wave packet that is formed in H-2+ upon ionization of the neutral molecule by the XUV pulse is observed. In experiments where the duration of the IR pulse exceeds the vibrational period of H-2+ (15 fs), a pronounced dependence of the H+ kinetic energy distribution on XUV-IR delay is observed that can be explained in terms of the adiabatic propagation of the H-2+ wave packet on field-dressed potential energy curves.

Attosecond pulse shaping using a seeded free-electron laser

- Attosecond pulses are central to the investigation of valence- and core-electron dynamics on their natural timescales. The reproducible generation and characterization of attosecond waveforms has been demonstrated so far only through the process of high-order harmonic generation. Several methods for shaping attosecond waveforms have been proposed, including the use of metallic filters, multilayer mirrors and manipulation of the driving field. However, none of these approaches allows the flexible manipulation of the temporal characteristics of the attosecond waveforms, and they suffer from the low conversion efficiency of the high-order harmonic generation process. Free-electron lasers, by contrast, deliver femtosecond, extreme-ultraviolet and X-ray pulses with energies ranging from tens of microjoules to a few millijoules. Recent experiments have shown that they can generate subfemtosecond spikes, but with temporal characteristics that change shot-to-shot. Here we report reproducible generation of high-energy (microjoule level) attosecond waveforms using a seeded free-electron laser. We demonstrate amplitude and phase manipulation of the harmonic components of an attosecond pulse train in combination with an approach for its temporal reconstruction. The results presented here open the way to performing attosecond time-resolved experiments with free-electron lasers.

- The generation of attosecond pulse trains at free-electron lasers opens new opportunities in ultrafast science, as it gives access, for the first time, to reproducible, programmable, extreme ultraviolet (XUV) waveforms with high intensity. In this work, we present a detailed analysis of the theoretical model underlying the temporal characterization of the attosecond pulse trains recently generated at the free-electron laser FERMI. In particular, the validity of the approximations used for the correlated analysis of the photoelectron spectra generated in the two-color photoionization experiments are thoroughly discussed. The ranges of validity of the assumptions, in connection with the main experimental parameters, are derived.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Free-electron lasers (FELs) can produce radiation in the short wavelength range extending from the extreme ultraviolet (XUV) to the X-rays with a few to a few tens of femtoseconds pulse duration. These facilities have enabled significant breakthroughs in the field of atomic, molecular, and optical physics, implementing different schemes based on two-color photoionization mechanisms. In this article, we present the generation of attosecond pulse trains (APTs) at the seeded FEL FERMI using the beating of multiple phase-locked harmonics. We demonstrate the complex attosecond waveform shaping of the generated APTs, exploiting the ability to manipulate independently the amplitudes and the phases of the harmonics. The described generalized attosecond waveform synthesis technique with an arbitrary number of phase-locked harmonics will allow the generation of sub-100 as pulses with programmable electric fields.

Time-Resolved Measurement of Interatomic Coulombic Decay Induced by Two-Photon Double Excitation of Ne2
- 2017
-
Ingår i: Physical Review Letters. - 0031-9007. ; 118:3
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The hitherto unexplored two-photon doubly excited states [Ne∗(2p-13s)]2 were experimentally identified using the seeded, fully coherent, intense extreme ultraviolet free-electron laser FERMI. These states undergo ultrafast interatomic Coulombic decay (ICD), which predominantly produces singly ionized dimers. In order to obtain the rate of ICD, the resulting yield of Ne2+ ions was recorded as a function of delay between the extreme ultraviolet pump and UV probe laser pulses. The extracted lifetimes of the long-lived doubly excited states, 390(-130/+450) fs, and of the short-lived ones, less than 150 fs, are in good agreement with ab initio quantum mechanical calculations.

- We publish three Roadmaps on photonic, electronic and atomic collision physics in order to celebrate the 60th anniversary of the ICPEAC conference. In Roadmap I, we focus on the light-matter interaction. In this area, studies of ultrafast electronic and molecular dynamics have been rapidly growing, with the advent of new light sources such as attosecond lasers and x-ray free electron lasers. In parallel, experiments with established synchrotron radiation sources and femtosecond lasers using cutting-edge detection schemes are revealing new scientific insights that have never been exploited. Relevant theories are also being rapidly developed. Target samples for photon-impact experiments are expanding from atoms and small molecules to complex systems such as biomolecules, fullerene, clusters and solids. This Roadmap aims to look back along the road, explaining the development of these fields, and look forward, collecting contributions from twenty leading groups from the field.
