Objectives
Hard-to-treat childhood cancers are those where standard treatment options do not exist and the prognosis is poor. Healthcare professionals (HCPs) are responsible for communicating with families about prognosis and complex experimental treatments. We aimed to identify HCPs’ key challenges and skills required when communicating with families about hard-to-treat cancers and their perceptions of communication-related training.
MethodsWe interviewed Australian HCPs who had direct responsibilities in managing children/adolescents with hard-to-treat cancer within the past 24 months. Interviews were analyzed using qualitative content analysis.
ResultsWe interviewed 10 oncologists, 7 nurses, and 3 social workers. HCPs identified several challenges for communication with families including: balancing information provision while maintaining realistic hope; managing their own uncertainty; and nurses and social workers being underutilized during conversations with families, despite widespread preferences for multidisciplinary teamwork. HCPs perceived that making themselves available to families, empowering them to ask questions, and repeating information helped to establish and maintain trusting relationships with families. Half the HCPs reported receiving no formal training for communicating prognosis and treatment options with families of children with hard-to-treat cancers. Nurses, social workers, and less experienced oncologists supported the development of communication training resources, more so than more experienced oncologists.
Significance of resultsResources are needed which support HCPs to communicate with families of children with hard-to-treat cancers. Such resources may be particularly beneficial for junior oncologists and other HCPs during their training, and they should aim to prepare them for common challenges and foster greater multidisciplinary collaboration.

This paper describes the development process of a mobile app-based version of the World Health Organization mental health Gap Action Programme Intervention Guide, testing of the app prototypes, and its functionality in the assessment and management of people with mental health conditions in Nepal. Health workers’ perception of feasibility and acceptability of using mobile technology in mental health care was assessed during the inspiration phase (N = 43); the ideation phase involved the creation of prototypes; and prototype testing was conducted over multiple rounds with 15 healthcare providers. The app provides provisional diagnoses and treatment options based on reported symptoms. Participants found the app prototype useful in reminding them of the process of assessment and management of mental disorders. Some challenges were noted, these included a slow app prototype with multiple technical problems, including difficulty in navigating ‘yes’/‘no’ options, and there were challenges reviewing detailed symptoms of a particular disorder using a “more information” icon. The initial feasibility work suggests that if the technical issues are addressed, the e-mhGAP warrants further research to understand if it is a useful method in improving the detection of people with mental health conditions and initiation of evidence-based treatment in primary healthcare facilities.

Background: Reflexive urine culturing, a strategy wherein urine cultures are only performed on samples with pyuria, is increasingly being used to reduce unnecessary urine cultures, healthcare costs, and inappropriate antibiotics. To support implementation of a reflexive urine-culture order for pediatric patients aged <18 years, we assessed the proportion of urine cultures that would be avoided with reflexive urine culturing, and we calculated the sensitivity and negative predictive value (NPV) of the ≥10 white blood cells (WBC) per high-powered field (HPF) threshold for diagnosing urinary tract infections (UTI) in patients aged <18 years who presented to the pediatric emergency department (ED). Methods: A retrospective review of patients <18 years with a urine culture performed from January to May 2022 in an urban, tertiary-care, pediatric ED was performed. A positive urine culture was defined as ≥50,000 CFU/mL for catheterized specimens and ≥100,000 CFU/mL for clean-catch or unspecified specimens. Pyuria was defined as ≥10 WBC/HPF. ‘True UTI’ was defined as a positive urine culture with a consistent clinical presentation (eg, fever or dysuria). Sensitivity, specificity, and NPV were calculated using the pyuria threshold of ≥10WBC/HPF compared to the gold standard of a ‘true UTI.’ Results: During the study period, 658 patients aged <18 years had urine cultures sent, of which 46 (7%) were positive. In all, 407 urine cultures (61.9%) were obtained by clean catch, 233 (35.4%) were obtained by urethral catheterization, 2 (0.3%) were obtained by Foley catheter, and 16 (2.4%) were unspecified. Among the 46 positive cultures, 32 (69.6%) had ≥10 WBC/HPF, and 55 (9.0%) of 612 negative cultures had ≥10 WBC/HPF. Of the 14 patients with positive urine cultures without pyuria, 8 had a contaminated sample or asymptomatic bacteriuria, 3 had urologic abnormalities, and 3 were infants aged <3 months. Of the 14 patients, 3 (21.4%) had a consistent clinical presentation for UTI and were treated with antibiotics: 2 were infants aged <3 months and 1 had urologic abnormalities. Using the ≥10 WBC/HPF threshold compared to ‘true UTI,’ sensitivity was 91.4%, specificity was 91.5%, positive predictive value was 36%, and NPV was 99.5%. Sensitivity and NPV increased to 100% when infants aged <3 months and urologic patients with positive urine culture were excluded. We estimated a cost saving of ~$200,000 had reflexive testing been in place. Conclusions: A reflexive urine culture for specimens with ≥10 WBC/HPF would have reduced the number of urine cultures substantially because 571 (86.8%) of 658 urine cultures would not have been performed. To prevent missed diagnoses of UTI, infants aged <3 months and children with urologic abnormalities should be excluded from this diagnostic stewardship intervention.

Introduction:
New Zealand is widely known across the globe as an adventure tourism destination. On December 9, 2019, the natural wonders of the country became a major disaster that impacted the lives of many and stretched the resources of the New Zealand healthcare system.
Whakaari/White Island is an uninhabited, privately owned island 50 km off the North Island of New Zealand. It contains two strato-volcanoes, which were and remain a popular tourist destination. While an international tourist group were enjoying their guided tour of the crater, one of the volcanoes erupted, sending superheated debris and gas into the air. Of the 47 individuals on the island at the time, 39 were rescued. Overall, 25 people survived. The mortality of this event was significantly lower than historic volcanic eruptions involving ballistic and pyroclastic injuries. We are fortunate to present information specifically on the chemical and physiological changes noted from exposure to volcanic ash.
Located in New Zealand’s largest city is Middlemore Hospital, home of the National Burns Center. This center is supported by three regional burn centers throughout the country. Prior to Whakaari, mass-casualty plans were in place, however, system-wide adaptations were required on many levels to ensure delivery of healthcare. This included changes in pre-hospital triage, support for regional burns centers and repatriation to home countries.
This poster presentation takes you on the journey of adaptation experienced within the National Burns Service, focusing on operating theater, intensive care and acute burns management.

The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic challenged not only the health-care industry, but also the public health infrastructure in new and wide-ranging ways. Environmental health (EH) professionals have proven to be an essential component of the interdisciplinary public health solution required to prevent, respond, and recover from the COVID-19 pandemic. The Indian Health Service’s Division of Environmental Health Services is a community-based program offering a broad scope of environmental health services and technical assistance. Significant COVID-19 workload activities were recorded from March 2020 through March 2021. A total of 62.7% of the Division’s federal staff completed a 24-question survey in February/March 2021. Primary roles relating to community-based EH, institutional EH, and incident command system support/teams became apparent. Results indicated Division of Environmental Health Services staff provided critical leadership and used their established, trusted, interdisciplinary partnerships to help ensure critical resources and services were available in Indian Country.

ABSTRACT IMPACT: This study deepens knowledge with respect to the associations between depression, cardiometabolic conditions, and accelerated aging with a clinically accessible marker in a population with disproportionate risk for comorbidity. OBJECTIVES/GOALS: The aim of this secondary analysis is to examine associations between DNA methylation age acceleration (DNAm AA) and depressive symptoms in African American women (AAW) considering the presence of cardiometabolic conditions (CMCs) including hypertension, diabetes, obesity. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: Genomic and longitudinal clinical data (collected 2015-2020) from the Intergenerational Impact of Genetic and Psychosocial Factors on Blood Pressure Study (InterGEN) cohort (n=227) were utilized for this analysis. DNA methylation age (estimated by the Horvath method) incorporates DNA methylation status at 353 CpG sites. DNAm AA is the residual of DNA methylation age regressed on chronological age in a linear model. Spearman’s correlations and linear regression examine the relationship between DNAm AA and depressive symptoms (Beck Depression Inventory) and cardiometabolic status. The potential association and impact of SES, trauma, substance use, and stress were also considered. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: Contrary to our hypothesis, DNAm AA did not associate with the severity of depressive symptoms. Correlation between DNAm AA and affective symptom subscore (BDI) approached significance (p = 0.06). We observed significant correlations between DNAm AA and specific depressive symptoms including participants’ reported disappointment, disgust, or hatred toward themselves (p < 0.05), difficulty with making decisions (p < 0.05), and worry about their physical health (p < 0.05). DNAm AA was also significantly correlated with BMI (p > 0.001). Significant relationships were not evident in the subsequent regression analysis examining potential relationships between DNAm AA and depression. To our knowledge, this is the first study to examine associations between DNAm AA and depressive symptoms in AAW. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF FINDINGS: Depression limits life quality and quantity and is highly comorbid in CMCs. AAW have a high risk of comorbidity. This study deepens knowledge with respect to the associations between depression, CMCs, and aging with a clinically accessible marker in a population with disproportionate risk.

OBJECTIVES/GOALS: To examine the relationship between epigenetic age acceleration (EAA) and depressive symptoms in a cohort of African American women (AAW) with cardiometabolic conditions (CMC) including hypertension, diabetes, obesity; and to explore clinical phenotypes of depressive symptoms in this population. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: This secondary analysis utilized genomic and longitudinal clinical data from AAW in the InterGEN cohort (n = 250). EWAS data was used to estimate EAA based on the Horvath method, which incorporates the DNA methylation statuses at 353 specific CpG sites and regresses this epigenetic age on chronological age to determine EAA. Pearson’s correlations and linear regression will be used to examine the relationship between EAA and depressive symptoms and a linear mixed model will investigate this relationship over four time points during a two-year period. Clinical phenotyping of depressive symptoms will be explored using a cluster analysis. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: Analysis is underway and will be complete by the time of presentation. We hypothesize that higher EAA will associate with higher depressive symptoms and poorer trajectories over time. We expect that this relationship may be meditated by the presence of CMCs. Exploratory analysis of clinical phenotyping is expected to provide descriptive evidence with respect to specific depressive symptoms or clusters which are most associated with EAA and CMCs. These results will address several gaps. To our knowledge, this is the first study to examine the relationship of EAA and depressive symptoms considering the role of CMC, in a historically understudied population with disproportionate risk. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF IMPACT: Depression limits life quality and quantity and is highly comorbid in CMC. AAW have high risk of comorbidity, and this study furthers knowledge of depression and aging with a clinically accessible marker and aids recognition of a heterogenous phenotype in an undertreated population.

The mammal family Tenrecidae (Afrotheria: Afrosoricida) is endemic to Madagascar. Here we present the conservation priorities for the 31 species of tenrec that were assessed or reassessed in 2015–2016 for the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species. Six species (19.4%) were found to be threatened (4 Vulnerable, 2 Endangered) and one species was categorized as Data Deficient. The primary threat to tenrecs is habitat loss, mostly as a result of slash-and-burn agriculture, but some species are also threatened by hunting and incidental capture in fishing traps. In the longer term, climate change is expected to alter tenrec habitats and ranges. However, the lack of data for most tenrecs on population size, ecology and distribution, together with frequent changes in taxonomy (with many cryptic species being discovered based on genetic analyses) and the poorly understood impact of bushmeat hunting on spiny species (Tenrecinae), hinders conservation planning. Priority conservation actions are presented for Madagascar's tenrecs for the first time since 1990 and focus on conserving forest habitat (especially through improved management of protected areas) and filling essential knowledge gaps. Tenrec research, monitoring and conservation should be integrated into broader sustainable development objectives and programmes targeting higher profile species, such as lemurs, if we are to see an improvement in the conservation status of tenrecs in the near future.

In this paper we explore differences in prosodic rhythm between two English speech communities in rural Southern Alberta, Canada: speakers of Blackfoot First Nation descent and those of settler descent. Using the Variability Index (VI), we show that there are statistically significant differences between English speakers of settler descent and those of Blackfoot descent, where those of Blackfoot descent have a higher VI, that is, they are further along the stress-timing continuum than those of settler descent. We hypothesize that these differences are due to language transfer effects stemming from the community's original Blackfoot phonology which were present in their L2 English when the community norm shifted primarily to English, and that the historical, social, and geographical isolation of Blackfoot people in Southern Alberta has contributed to the development of a new local Blackfoot English norm.

Ice cores provide a robust reconstruction of past climate. However, development of timescales by annual-layer counting, essential to detailed climate reconstruction and interpretation, on ice cores collected at low-accumulation sites or in regions of compressed ice, is problematic due to closely spaced layers. Ice-core analysis by laser ablation–inductively coupled plasma–mass spectrometry (LA-ICP-MS) provides sub-millimeter-scale sampling resolution (on the order of 100 μm in this study) and the low detection limits (ng L−1) necessary to measure the chemical constituents preserved in ice cores. We present a newly developed cryocell that can hold a 1 m long section of ice core, and an alternative strategy for calibration. Using ice-core samples from central Greenland, we demonstrate the repeatability of multiple ablation passes, highlight the improved sampling resolution, verify the calibration technique and identify annual layers in the chemical profile in a deep section of an ice core where annual layers have not previously been identified using chemistry. In addition, using sections of cores from the Swiss/Italian Alps we illustrate the relationship between Ca, Na and Fe and particle concentration and conductivity, and validate the LA-ICP-MS Ca profile through a direct comparison with continuous flow analysis results.

This study examined how native speakers of Spanish formulated sentences in English as a second language (L2) when randomly ordered words were orally presented. Participants included 206 adult literacy students (70 native Spanish speakers and 136 native English speakers) whose word reading equivalency was at third- through fifth-grade levels. The Word Ordering subtest of the Test of Language Development-3 was administered. Although they showed a similar pattern of performance in the sentence type (i.e., declarative, interrogative, or imperative sentence), the two groups showed a different pattern in the misuse of syntactic features. Pertaining to grammatical features, verbs were the most difficult item for the native speakers of Spanish. The findings of this study were explained through the intricate nature of English verbs as well as unique lexicalization patterns resulting from the typological difference between Spanish and English.

Background: Planning for neurology training necessitated a reflection on the experience of graduates. We explored practice characteristics, and training experience of recent graduates. Methods: Graduates from 2010-2014 completed a survey. Results: Response rate was 37% of 211. 56% were female. 91% were adult neurologists. 65% practiced in an outpatient setting. 63% worked in academics. 85% completed subspecialty training (median 1 year). 36% work 3 days a week or less. 82% took general call (median 1 night weekly). Role preparation was considered very good or excellent for most; however poor or fair ratings were 17% in advocacy and 8% in leadership. Training feedback was at least “good” for 87%. Burnout a few times a week or more was noted by 5% (6% during residency, particularly PGY1 and 5). 64% felt overly burdened by paperwork. Although most felt training was adequate, it was poor or fair at preparing for practice management (85%) and personal balance (55%). Most conditions were under-observed in training environment. Many noted a need for more independent practice development and community neurology. Conclusions: Although our training was found to be very good, some identified needs included advocacy training, and more training in general neurology in the longitudinal outpatient/community settings.

The present study determined whether parenting style, defined by control strategies varying in power-assertion mediated the established relation between maternal language usage (grammar and semantics) and child language (grammar, semantics and pragmatics) during toddlerhood (n=60). Based upon their use of control strategies mothers were categorized into continuum-of-control groups (i.e. high guidance (HG), high control (HC) or high negative control (HNC)). Mothers in the high negative control group, who characteristically used high levels of prohibitions and commands, had children who performed relatively poorly overall on the language measures (i.e. MLU, number of bound morphemes, number of different words and use of language functions). In contrast, children of mothers in the HG and HC groups exhibited more advanced language usage overall. The relation between maternal and child language usage was mediated by parenting style for child pragmatics and partially for child grammar.
