- PURPOSE: In an open label, randomized, controlled, phase 3 trial in 61 children 1 to 12 years old with X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH), burosumab improved rickets versus continuing conventional therapy with active vitamin D and phosphate. Here, we conducted an analysis to determine whether skeletal responses differed when switching to burosumab versus continuing higher or lower doses of conventional therapy.METHODS: Conventional therapy dose groups were defined as: higher dose phosphate >40 mg/kg [HPi], lower dose phosphate ≤40 mg/kg [LPi], higher dose alfacalcidol >60 ng/kg or calcitriol >30 ng/kg [HD], and lower dose alfacalcidol ≤60 ng/kg or calcitriol ≤30 ng/kg [LD].RESULTS: At Week 64, the Radiographic Global Impression of Change (RGI-C) for rickets was higher (better) in children randomized to burosumab versus conventional therapy for all pre-baseline dose groups: HPi (+1.72 versus +0.67), LPi (+2.14 versus +1.08), HD (+1.90 versus +0.94), LD (+2.11 versus +1.06). At Week 64, the RGI-C for rickets was also higher in children randomized to burosumab (+2.06) versus conventional therapy for all on-study dose groups: HPi (+1.03), LPi (+1.05), HD (+1.45), LD (+0.72). Serum alkaline phosphatase also decreased in the burosumab treated patients more than in the conventional therapy group, regardless of on-study phosphate and active vitamin D doses.MAIN CONCLUSIONS: Prior phosphate or active vitamin D doses did not influence treatment response after switching to burosumab among children with XLH and active radiographic rickets. Switching from conventional therapy to burosumab improved rickets and serum alkaline phosphatase more than continuing either higher or lower doses of phosphate or active vitamin D.

- CONTEXT: Younger age at treatment-onset with conventional therapy (Pi/D) is associated with improved growth and skeletal outcomes in children with X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH). The impact of age on burosumab efficacy and safety in XLH is unknown.OBJECTIVE: Explore the efficacy and safety of burosumab versus Pi/D in younger (<5 years) and older (5 to 12 years) children with XLH.DESIGN: Post-hoc analysis of 64-week, open-label, randomized controlled study.SETTING: Sixteen academic centers.PATIENTS OR OTHER PARTICIPANTS: Sixty-one children 1-12 years of age with XLH (younger, n=26; older, n=35).INTERVENTIONS: Children received burosumab starting at 0.8 mg/kg every 2 weeks (younger, n=14; older, n=15) or continued Pi/D individually titrated per recommended guidelines (younger, n=12; older, n=20).MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE: Least squares means difference (LSMD) in Radiographic Global Impression of Change (RGI-C) rickets total score from baseline to week 64.RESULTS: The LSMD in outcomes through 64 weeks on burosumab versus conventional therapy by age group were as follows: RGI-C rickets total score (younger, +0.90; older, +1.07), total rickets severity score (younger, -0.86; older, -1.44), RGI-C lower limb deformity score (younger, +1.02; older, +0.91), recumbent length or standing height Z-score (younger, +0.20; older, +0.09), and serum alkaline phosphatase (younger, -31.15% of upper normal limit [ULN]; older, -52.11% of ULN). On burosumab, dental abscesses were not reported in younger children but were in 53% of older children.CONCLUSIONS: Burosumab appears to improve outcomes in both younger and older children with XLH, including rickets, lower limb deformities, growth, and alkaline phosphatase, compared with Pi/D.

- A low intake of fruits and vegetables is a risk factor for gastric cancer, although there is uncertainty regarding the magnitude of the associations. In our study, the relationship between fruits and vegetables intake and gastric cancer was assessed, complementing a previous work on the association betweenconsumption of citrus fruits and gastric cancer. Data from 25 studies (8456 cases and 21 133 controls) with information on fruits and/or vegetables intake were used. A two-stage approach based on random-effects models was used to pool study-specific adjusted (sex, age and the main known risk factors for gastric cancer) odds ratios (ORs) and the corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Exposure-response relations, including linear and nonlinear associations, were modeled using one- and two-order fractional polynomials. Gastric cancer risk was lower for a higher intake of fruits (OR: 0.76, 95% CI: 0.64-0.90), noncitrus fruits (OR: 0.86, 95% CI: 0.73-1.02), vegetables (OR: 0.68, 95% CI: 0.56-0.84), and fruits and vegetables (OR: 0.61, 95% CI: 0.49-0.75); results were consistent across sociodemographic and lifestyles categories, as well as study characteristics. Exposure-response analyses showed an increasingly protective effect of portions/day of fruits (OR: 0.64, 95% CI: 0.57-0.73 for six portions), noncitrus fruits (OR: 0.71, 95% CI: 0.61-0.83 for six portions) and vegetables (OR: 0.51, 95% CI: 0.43-0.60 for 10 portions). A protective effect of all fruits, noncitrus fruits and vegetables was confirmed, supporting further dietary recommendations to decrease the burden of gastric cancer.

- Autism is frequently associated with difficulties with top-down attentional control, which impact on individuals’ mental health and quality of life. The developmental processes involved in these attentional difficulties are not well understood. Using a data-driven approach, 2 samples (N = 294 and 412) of infants at elevated and typical likelihood of autism were grouped according to profiles of parent report of attention at 10, 15 and 25 months. In contrast to the normative profile of increases in attentional control scores between infancy and toddlerhood, a minority (7–9%) showed plateauing attentional control scores between 10 and 25 months. Consistent with pre-registered hypotheses, plateaued growth of attentional control was associated with elevated autism and ADHD traits, and lower adaptive functioning at age 3 years.
