Background And Aims: Ulcerative colitis [UC] impacts patients' health-related quality of life [HRQoL]. We assessed HRQoL and an exploratory patient-level composite endpoint ('Comprehensive Disease Control' [CDC]) in individuals receiving filgotinib [an oral JAK1 preferential inhibitor] in the SELECTION trial.

Methods: In SELECTION [NCT02914522], a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, phase 2b/3 trial, adults with moderately to severely active UC received once-daily filgotinib 200 mg, filgotinib 100 mg or placebo for 11 weeks in Induction Study A [biologic-naïve] or B [biologic-experienced]. Filgotinib responders [week 10 clinical remission/response] were re-randomized to their filgotinib regimen or placebo for the 48-week Maintenance Study. We assessed week 10 and week 58 SF-36, EQ-5D, WPAI and IBDQ scores. Achievement of CDC (patient-level partial Mayo Clinic Score [pMCS] remission [pMCS ≤2, no individual rectal bleeding, stool frequency or physician's global assessment subscore >1], endoscopic improvement [endoscopic subscore ≤1], faecal calprotectin <150 µg/g and IBDQ score ≥170) and its association with HRQoL and histological outcomes were also explored.

Results: Analyses included 382 biologic-naïve and 404 biologic-experienced patients. Filgotinib 200 mg induced and maintained improvements vs placebo in SF-36, EQ-5D, WPAI and IBDQ scores, and restored HRQoL by week 10. Proportionally more filgotinib 200 mg- than placebo-treated patients achieved CDC at weeks 10 and 58 [p < 0.01]. CDC was associated with clinically important improvements in HRQoL and histological remission over both periods.

Conclusions: Filgotinib 200 mg results in short- and long-term improvements in HRQoL. High-level improvement of HRQoL relates to a stringent composite endpoint suggesting meaningful disease control in a subset of filgotinib-treated individuals.ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT02914522.

Background: Intermediate-high risk pulmonary embolism (PE) carries a significant risk of hemodynamic deterioration or death. Treatment should balance efficacy in reducing clot burden with the risk of complications, particularly bleeding. Previous studies on high-dose, short-term thrombolysis with alteplase (rtPA) showed a reduced risk of hemodynamic deterioration but no change in mortality and increased bleeding complications.

Introduction: Donor human milk (DHM) is the first alternative if mother's own milk is unavailable or contraindicated. Much DHM research has focused on its nutritional, immunological and biochemical composition in response to various maternal variables, standard human milk banking procedures and storage protocols. The current systematic review protocol, however, aims to systematically gather and analyse existing data pertaining to the impact of these aforementioned factors on the clinical, health-related and developmental outcomes observed in infants fed with DHM.

Introduction: This study aimed to identify predictive factors of having a positive or negatively divergent self-perception from the normative orthodontic treatment need (N-OTN).

Methods: All eligible undergraduate students from the School of Dentistry of the XXX were recruited through convenience sampling. They were clinically evaluated to determine their N-OTN using the IOTN and were asked about their self-perceived orthodontic treatment need (S-OTN) using the same scale for both evaluations.
