Abstract Background Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV) is a ubiquitous gamma-herpesvirus with which ~ 95% of the healthy population infected. EBV infection has been implicated in range haematological malignancies and autoimmune diseases. Delayed primary increases risk subsequent complications. Contemporaneous seroepidemiological data needed to establish best approaches for successful vaccination strategies future. Methods We conducted sero-epidemiological survey using serum samples from 2325...
Introduction Given its proximity to the central nervous system, surgical site infections (SSIs) after craniotomy (SSI-CRAN) represent a serious adverse event. SSI-CRAN are associated with substantial patient morbidity and mortality. Despite recognition of SSI in other fields, there is paucity evidence neurosurgical literature devoted skin closure, specifically patients brain tumors. The primary objective this service evaluation ascertain incidence risk factors SSI-CRAN. secondary objectives...
Abstract Background Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a leading cause of non-traumatic disability in young adults. Accumulating evidence indicates early diagnosis and treatment improves long-term outcomes. However, the MS diagnostic pathway increasingly complex, delays may occur at several stages. Factors causing remain understudied. We aim to quantify time taken for be diagnosed, characterise initial care provided, United Kingdom (UK) Republic Ireland (ROI). Methods Delays In MultiplE Sclerosis...
Purpose: Self-directed learning (SDL) has been increasingly emphasized within medical education. However, little is known about the SDL resources students use. This study aimed to identify patterns in students’ behaviors, their resource choices, factors motivating these and potential impact of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic on variables.Methods: An online cross-sectional survey comprising multiple-choice, ranked, free-text response questions were disseminated across all 41 UK...

Glioblastoma multiforme is the most common and aggressive primary adult brain neoplasm. The current standard of care maximal safe surgical resection, radiotherapy with concomitant temozolomide, followed by adjuvant temozolomide according to Stupp protocol. Although protocol well adopted in high-income countries (HICs), little known about its adoption low- middle-income (LMICs). aim this study describe a design for systematic review published studies outlining differences GBM management...
Abstract Background Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV) is a ubiquitous gamma-herpesvirus with which ∼95% of the healthy population infected. EBV infection has been implicated in range haematological malignancies and autoimmune diseases. Delayed primary increases risk subsequent complications. Over recent decades, age become later, largely due to improved sanitation living conditions. Methods findings First, we conducted sero-epidemiological survey volunteers between 0 25 years old assess prevalence...
<h3>Abstract</h3> <h3>Background</h3> We sought to explore associations between trainee doctor perception and excess patient mortality. <h3>Methods</h3> Data from two publicly available databases reflecting mortality components of satisfaction within 81 NHS healthcare institutions the years 2012 2019 were analysed. Pearson9s correlation coefficients calculated. <h3>Results</h3> All domains correlated with Clinical supervision out hours (R=–0.44; p<0.0001), teamwork (R=–0.36; p<0.0001)...
Objectives This study aimed to investigate whether components of junior doctor satisfaction are associated with patient mortality within the United Kingdom. Methods We conducted a cross-sectional publicly available data (the General Medical Council [GMC] National Survey and Summary Hospital-level Mortality Indicator [SHMI]) pertaining subjective physician trainee 80 Kingdom–based healthcare institutions. The direction strength correlation between GMC relative as described by SHMI were...
Abstract Purpose Post-operative MRI is used to assess extent of resection, monitor treatment response and detect progression in high-grade glioma. However, compliance with accepted guidelines for follow-up MRI, impact on management/outcomes unclear. Methods Multi-center, retrospective observational cohort study patients confirmed WHO grade 4 glioma (August 2018-February 2019) receiving oncological treatment. Primary objective: investigate surveillance practice recommendations from NICE...
Low serum 25(OH)D3 (vD) is an environmental risk factor for multiple sclerosis (MS). Lower vD levels during early disease may be associated with long-term disability. Determinants of in healthy individuals include supplementation behaviour and genetic factors. These determinants have been less well studied people MS (pwMS).We developed a vD-weighted score (GRS) validated this 373,357 UK Biobank participants without MS. We measured genotyped six vD-associated SNPs (rs12785878, rs10741657,...

Background There is an urgent need for reliable methods to remotely monitor Multiple Sclerosis (MS). Existing assessments, such as Timed 25-Foot Walk (T25FW) and 9-Hole Peg Test (9HPT), are traditionally carried out in person by physicians. The use of self-administered, remote versions these assessments could improve monitoring hence care people with MS (pwMS). This study evaluated the T25FW (rT25FW) 9HPT (r9HPT) assessments. Methods pwMS were given comprehensive instructions equipment...
Background Low serum 25(OH)D3 (vD) in early disease may be associated with worse prognosis multiple sclerosis (MS). Determinants of vD concentration are established healthy individuals, but poorly studied people MS (pwMS). Unpicking the determinants pwMS have important preventative and therapeutic implications. Methods We recruited a study cohort from UK Register (n=315) matched controls (n=232). measured genotyped six vD-associated SNPs. developed weighted genetic risk score (GRS) using...
