Omecamtiv mecarbil in chronic heart failure with reduced ejection fraction, GALACTICāHF: baseline characteristics and comparison with contemporary clinical trials
Aims:
The safety and efficacy of the novel selective cardiac myosin activator, omecamtiv mecarbil, in patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) is tested in the Global Approach to Lowering Adverse Cardiac outcomes Through Improving Contractility in Heart Failure (GALACTICāHF) trial. Here we describe the baseline characteristics of participants in GALACTICāHF and how these compare with other contemporary trials.
Methods and Results:
Adults with established HFrEF, New York Heart Association functional class (NYHA)āā„āII, EF ā¤35%, elevated natriuretic peptides and either current hospitalization for HF or history of hospitalization/ emergency department visit for HF within a year were randomized to either placebo or omecamtiv mecarbil (pharmacokineticāguided dosing: 25, 37.5 or 50āmg bid). 8256 patients [male (79%), nonāwhite (22%), mean age 65āyears] were enrolled with a mean EF 27%, ischemic etiology in 54%, NYHA II 53% and III/IV 47%, and median NTāproBNP 1971āpg/mL. HF therapies at baseline were among the most effectively employed in contemporary HF trials. GALACTICāHF randomized patients representative of recent HF registries and trials with substantial numbers of patients also having characteristics understudied in previous trials including more from North America (n = 1386), enrolled as inpatients (n = 2084), systolic blood pressureā<ā100āmmHg (n = 1127), estimated glomerular filtration rate <ā30āmL/min/1.73 m2 (n = 528), and treated with sacubitrilāvalsartan at baseline (n = 1594).
Conclusions:
GALACTICāHF enrolled a wellātreated, highārisk population from both inpatient and outpatient settings, which will provide a definitive evaluation of the efficacy and safety of this novel therapy, as well as informing its potential future implementation
A pratica docente no ensino superior particular noturno : um estudo de caso
Orientador: Ezequiel Theodoro da SilvaTese (doutorado) - Universidade Estadual de Campinas, Faculdade de EducaĆ§Ć£oResumo: Esta pesquisa busca caracterizar a prĆ”tica educativa no mesmo superior particular noturno. Toma como referencial o resultado de questionĆ”rios, observaƧƵes e entrevistas aplicados aos professores e alunos dos vĆ”rios cursos oferecidos pela InstituiĆ§Ć£o privilegiada. Detecta que o ensino se faz de forma desvinculada da realidade, porquanto toma como referĆŖncia o aluno dissociado do trabalho para quem sĆ£o elaborados os planos e definidos conteĆŗdos. No confronto entre o ensino e o aluno idealizados e a realidade concreta do ensino superior particular noturno, o professor, enquanto trabalhador que ensina a outro trabalhador, coloca-se numa posiĆ§Ć£o ambĆgua, ora identificando-se, ora afastando-se do aluno. Dessa ambivalĆŖncia emergem elementos que se contrapƵem Ć s justificaƧƵes ideolĆ³gicas que lhe apontam o esforƧo individual como elemento suficiente para o sucesso escolar. Esses elementos sĆ£o pĆ³los possĆveis para a consciĆŖncia da necessidade de transformaĆ§Ć£o da escola no interesse do trabalhador-aluno, sobretudo se tematizado o trabalho na apreensĆ£o dos conteĆŗdos escolaresAbstract: This research tries to characterize the education practice of the secondary private evening tuition. It takes as reference the result of questionnaires, observations and interviews with teachers and students of several courses offered by the institution in question. It detects that tuition is carried out detached from reality, because it takes as reference students disconnected from the work to whom the plans and contents are defined. Bringing face to face the idealized tuition and student and the concrete reality of secondary private evening school, the teacher, as a worker the teaches to other worker, assumes an ambiguous position, sometimes identified with the student, sometimes apart from him. From this ambivalence elements emerge which are contrary to the ideological justifications which a from that individual effort is a sufficient condition for success at school. These elements are possible poles to bring to conscience the necessity in school of a transfonnation in the worker-student' s interest, especially if the work of apprehension of school contents is taken into accountDoutoradoDoutor em EducaĆ§Ć£

Evaluation of a quality improvement intervention to reduce anastomotic leak following right colectomy (EAGLE): pragmatic, batched stepped-wedge, cluster-randomized trial in 64 countries
Background
Anastomotic leak affects 8 per cent of patients after right colectomy with a 10-fold increased risk of postoperative death. The EAGLE study aimed to develop and test whether an international, standardized quality improvement intervention could reduce anastomotic leaks.
Methods
The internationally intended protocol, iteratively co-developed by a multistage Delphi process, comprised an online educational module introducing risk stratification, an intraoperative checklist, and harmonized surgical techniques. Clusters (hospital teams) were randomized to one of three arms with varied sequences of intervention/data collection by a derived stepped-wedge batch design (at least 18 hospital teams per batch). Patients were blinded to the study allocation. Low- and middle-income country enrolment was encouraged. The primary outcome (assessed by intention to treat) was anastomotic leak rate, and subgroup analyses by module completion (at least 80 per cent of surgeons, high engagement; less than 50 per cent, low engagement) were preplanned.
Results
A total 355 hospital teams registered, with 332 from 64 countries (39.2 per cent low and middle income) included in the final analysis. The online modules were completed by half of the surgeons (2143 of 4411). The primary analysis included 3039 of the 3268 patients recruited (206 patients had no anastomosis and 23 were lost to follow-up), with anastomotic leaks arising before and after the intervention in 10.1 and 9.6 per cent respectively (adjusted OR 0.87, 95 per cent c.i. 0.59 to 1.30; P = 0.498). The proportion of surgeons completing the educational modules was an influence: the leak rate decreased from 12.2 per cent (61 of 500) before intervention to 5.1 per cent (24 of 473) after intervention in high-engagement centres (adjusted OR 0.36, 0.20 to 0.64; P < 0.001), but this was not observed in low-engagement hospitals (8.3 per cent (59 of 714) and 13.8 per cent (61 of 443) respectively; adjusted OR 2.09, 1.31 to 3.31).
Conclusion
Completion of globally available digital training by engaged teams can alter anastomotic leak rates. Registration number: NCT04270721 (http://www.clinicaltrials.gov)
Cardiac myosin activation with omecamtiv mecarbil in systolic heart failure
BACKGROUND The selective cardiac myosin activator omecamtiv mecarbil has been shown to improve cardiac function in patients with heart failure with a reduced ejection fraction. Its effect on cardiovascular outcomes is unknown. METHODS We randomly assigned 8256 patients (inpatients and outpatients) with symptomatic chronic heart failure and an ejection fraction of 35% or less to receive omecamtiv mecarbil (using pharmacokinetic-guided doses of 25 mg, 37.5 mg, or 50 mg twice daily) or placebo, in addition to standard heart-failure therapy. The primary outcome was a composite of a first heart-failure event (hospitalization or urgent visit for heart failure) or death from cardiovascular causes. RESULTS During a median of 21.8 months, a primary-outcome event occurred in 1523 of 4120 patients (37.0%) in the omecamtiv mecarbil group and in 1607 of 4112 patients (39.1%) in the placebo group (hazard ratio, 0.92; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.86 to 0.99; P = 0.03). A total of 808 patients (19.6%) and 798 patients (19.4%), respectively, died from cardiovascular causes (hazard ratio, 1.01; 95% CI, 0.92 to 1.11). There was no significant difference between groups in the change from baseline on the Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire total symptom score. At week 24, the change from baseline for the median N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide level was 10% lower in the omecamtiv mecarbil group than in the placebo group; the median cardiac troponin I level was 4 ng per liter higher. The frequency of cardiac ischemic and ventricular arrhythmia events was similar in the two groups. CONCLUSIONS Among patients with heart failure and a reduced ejection, those who received omecamtiv mecarbil had a lower incidence of a composite of a heart-failure event or death from cardiovascular causes than those who received placebo.

Guidelines for the use and interpretation of assays for monitoring autophagy (3rd edition)
Guidelines for the use and interpretation of assays for monitoring autophagy (4th edition)
In 2008, we published the first set of guidelines for standardizing research in autophagy. Since then, this topic has received increasing attention, and many scientists have entered the field. Our knowledge base and relevant new technologies have also been expanding. Thus, it is important to formulate on a regular basis updated guidelines for monitoring autophagy in different organisms. Despite numerous reviews, there continues to be confusion regarding acceptable methods to evaluate autophagy, especially in multicellular eukaryotes. Here, we present a set of guidelines for investigators to select and interpret methods to examine autophagy and related processes, and for reviewers to provide realistic and reasonable critiques of reports that are focused on these processes. These guidelines are not meant to be a dogmatic set of rules, because the appropriateness of any assay largely depends on the question being asked and the system being used. Moreover, no individual assay is perfect for every situation, calling for the use of multiple techniques to properly monitor autophagy in each experimental setting. Finally, several core components of the autophagy machinery have been implicated in distinct autophagic processes (canonical and noncanonical autophagy), implying that genetic approaches to block autophagy should rely on targeting two or more autophagy-related genes that ideally participate in distinct steps of the pathway. Along similar lines, because multiple proteins involved in autophagy also regulate other cellular pathways including apoptosis, not all of them can be used as a specific marker for bona fide autophagic responses. Here, we critically discuss current methods of assessing autophagy and the information they can, or cannot, provide. Our ultimate goal is to encourage intellectual and technical innovation in the field
