There is widespread interest in facile methods for generating potent neutralizing antibodies, nanobodies, and other affinity proteins against SARS-CoV-2 and related viruses to address current and future pandemics. While isolating antibodies from animals and humans are proven approaches, these methods are limited to the affinities, specificities, and functional activities of antibodies generated by the immune system. Here we report a surprisingly simple directed evolution method for generating nanobodies with high affinities and neutralization activities against SARS-CoV-2. We demonstrate that complementarity-determining region swapping between low-affinity lead nanobodies, which we discovered unintentionally but find is simple to implement systematically, results in matured nanobodies with unusually large increases in affinity. Importantly, the matured nanobodies potently neutralize both SARS-CoV-2 pseudovirus and live virus, and possess drug-like biophysical properties. We expect that our methods will improve in vitro nanobody discovery and accelerate the generation of potent neutralizing nanobodies against diverse coronaviruses.Amyloid disorders such as Alzheimer's disease (AD) involve the aggregation of secreted proteins. However, it is largely unclear how secretory-pathway proteins contribute to amyloid formation. We developed a systems biology framework integrating expression data with protein-protein interaction networks to estimate a tissue's fitness for producing specific secreted proteins and analyzed the fitness of the secretory pathway of various brain regions and cell types for synthesizing the AD-associated amyloid precursor protein (APP). While key amyloidogenic pathway components were not differentially expressed in AD brains, we found Aβ deposition correlates with systemic down- and upregulation of the secretory-pathway components proximal to APP and amyloidogenic secretases, respectively, in AD. Our analyses suggest that perturbations from three AD risk loci cascade through the APP secretory-support network and into the endocytosis pathway, connecting amyloidogenesis to dysregulation of secretory-pathway components supporting APP and suggesting novel therapeutic targets for AD.

Radiology does not routinely solicit feedback on radiology reports. The aim of the study is to report the feasibility and initial results of a multi-institutional quality improvement project implementing patient and provider feedback for radiology reports.

A HIPAA-compliant, institutional review board-waived quality improvement effort at two institutions obtaining patient and provider feedback for radiology reports was implemented from January 2018 to May2020.

A two-question survey (quantitative review and open text box feedback) was embedded into the electronic health records for patients and providers. Text-based feedback was evaluated, and patterns of feedback were categorized thoroughness of reports, error in reports, timeliness of reports, access to reports, desire for patient summary, and desire for key images. We performed the χ
test for categorical variables. A P value < .05 was considered significant.

Of 367 responses, patients provided 219 of 367 (60%) and providers provided 148 of 367 (40%) of feedback. TAK-243 A higher proportion of patients reported satisfaction with reports (76% versus 65%, P= .023) and provided more feedback compared with providers (71% versus 50%, P < .0001), respectively. Both patients and providers commented on the thoroughness of reports (12% of patients versus 9% of providers) and errors in reports (8% of patients and 9% of providers). Patients disproportionately commented on timeliness of reports (11%) and access to the reports (6%) compared with providers (3% each). In addition, 7% of patients expressed desire for patient summaries.

Report-specific patient and provider feedback demonstrate feasibility of embedding surveys into electronic medical records. Up to 9% of the feedback addressed an error in reports.

Computed tomography (CT) imaging is commonly obtained following open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) of mandibular fractures but the significance of common findings is unknown. The purpose of this study is to examine the relationship of screw-to-fracture proximity and residual fracture displacement to post-operative complications following ORIF of mandibular angle fractures treated with monocortical fixation techniques.

The authors conducted a retrospective cohort study consisting of all patients with mandibular angle fractures treated with ORIF using monocortical fixation at the lateral surface of the mandible from the dates August 1, 2015 to May 31, 2020. The predictor variables were the distance measurements between the 2 closest screws to the fracture and the fracture line and the amount of residual fracture displacement, both measured on post-operative CT. The primary outcome variable was the presence of postoperative inflammatory complications (POICs). Statistical analysis was performed usingdistance or increased residual fracture displacement on postoperative CT imaging increased the risk of POICs for mandibular angle fractures treated with ORIF using monocortical fixation at the lateral border.
Our hypothesis is that direct manipulation of the third and second divisions of the trigeminal nerve during microneurosurgery does not affect the incidence of trigeminocardiac reflex (TCR). The purpose of this paper was to analyze the incidence of TCR events during microneurosurgery involving the second and third divisions of the trigeminal nerve.

This was a retrospective cohort study of 94 patients who underwent nerve repair of the second and third divisions of the trigeminal nerve, between July 2014 and February 2021 by a single surgeon (J. Z.). The independent variables were the trigeminal nerve branch injured, the laterality of the trigeminal nerve injury, the Sunderland classification, the ASA classification, the intraoperative narcotic(s) used, and the depth of anesthesia. The dependent variables included the occurrence of intraoperative hypercapnia, hypoxia, and TCR event. Since the data was retrospective and categorical in nature, χ
analysis was performed initially.

None of the patients in this retrospective cohort demonstrated intraoperative hypercapnia, hypoxia or TCR events.
