Abstract
BACKGROUND Perineal hernia (PH) is a late complication of abdominoperineal resection (APR) that may compromise a patient's quality of life. The frequency and risk factors for PH after robotic APR adopting recent rectal cancer treatment strategies remain unclear. METHODS Patients who underwent robotic APR for rectal cancer between December 2011 and June 2022 were retrospectively examined. From July 2020, pelvic reinforcement procedures, such as robotic closure of the pelvic peritoneum and levator ani muscles, were performed as prophylactic procedures for PH whenever feasible. PH was diagnosed in patients with or without symptoms using computed tomography 1 year after surgery. We examined the frequency of PH, compared characteristics between patients with PH (PH+) and without PH (PH-), and identified risk factors for PH. RESULTS We evaluated 142 patients, including 53 PH+ (37.3%) and 89 PH- (62.6%). PH+ had a significantly higher rate of preoperative chemoradiotherapy (26.4% versus 10.1%, p = 0.017) and a significantly lower rate of undergoing pelvic reinforcement procedures (1.9% versus 14.0%, p = 0.017). PH+ had a lower rate of lateral lymph node dissection (47.2% versus 61.8%, p = 0.115) and a shorter operative time (340 min versus 394 min, p = 0.110). According to multivariate analysis, the independent risk factors for PH were preoperative chemoradiotherapy, not undergoing lateral lymph node dissection, and not undergoing a pelvic reinforcement procedure. CONCLUSIONS PH after robotic APR for rectal cancer is not a rare complication under the recent treatment strategies for rectal cancer, and performing prophylactic procedures for PH should be considered.

Abstract
PURPOSE Dedifferentiated low-grade osteosarcomas, which are considered high grade malignancies, can arise from the dedifferentiation of parosteal and low-grade osteosarcomas. Usually, localized dedifferentiated low-grade osteosarcomas are treated by wide resection, and the efficacy of adjuvant chemotherapy is controversial. We conducted a systematic review of studies that investigated the rates of mortality and significant events, such as recurrence and metastases, in localized dedifferentiated low-grade osteosarcoma patients who received wide resection only and in those who received wide resection and (neo-)adjuvant chemotherapy. METHODS We identified 712 studies through systematic searches of Embase, PubMed, and the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials databases. Of those studies, seven were included in this review and none were randomized controlled trials. In the seven studies, 114 localized dedifferentiated low-grade osteosarcoma patients were examined. RESULTS Mortality rates of the resection plus chemotherapy (R + C) and the resection only (Ronly) groups were 20.3% and 11.4%, respectively [overall pooled odds ratio, 1.59 (P = 0.662); heterogeneity I2, 0%]. The local recurrence or distant metastasis rate in the R + C group was 36.7% and that in the Ronly group was 28.6% [overall pooled odds ratio, 1.37 (P = 0.484); heterogeneity I2 was 0%]. CONCLUSIONS Results show a limited efficacy of adjuvant chemotherapy for localized dedifferentiated low-grade osteosarcoma. However, because this was a systematic review of retrospective studies that examined a small number of patients, future randomized controlled trials are needed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Human epidermal growth factor receptor 3 (HER3) is broadly expressed in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and is the target of patritumab deruxtecan (HER3-DXd), an antibody-drug conjugate consisting of a HER3 antibody attached to a topoisomerase I inhibitor payload via a tetrapeptide-based cleavable linker. U31402-A-U102 is an ongoing phase I study of HER3-DXd in patients with advanced NSCLC. Patients with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-mutated NSCLC that progressed after EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) and platinum-based chemotherapy (PBC) who received HER3-DXd 5.6 mg/kg intravenously once every 3 weeks had a confirmed objective response rate (cORR) of 39%. We present median overall survival (OS) with extended follow-up in a larger population of patients with EGFR-mutated NSCLC and an exploratory analysis in those with acquired genomic alterations potentially associated with resistance to HER3-DXd. PATIENTS AND METHODS Safety was assessed in patients with EGFR-mutated NSCLC previously treated with EGFR TKI who received HER3-DXd 5.6 mg/kg; efficacy was assessed in those who also had prior PBC. RESULTS In the safety population (N = 102), median treatment duration was 5.5 (range 0.7-27.5) months. Grade ≥3 adverse events occurred in 76.5% of patients; the overall safety profile was consistent with previous reports. In 78/102 patients who had prior third-generation EGFR TKI and PBC, cORR by blinded independent central review (as per RECIST v1.1) was 41.0% [95% confidence interval (CI) 30.0% to 52.7%], median progression-free survival was 6.4 (95% CI 4.4-10.8) months, and median OS was 16.2 (95% CI 11.2-21.9) months. Patients had diverse mechanisms of EGFR TKI resistance at baseline. At tumor progression, acquired mutations in ERBB3 and TOP1 that might confer resistance to HER3-DXd were identified. CONCLUSIONS In patients with EGFR-mutated NSCLC after EGFR TKI and PBC, HER3-DXd treatment was associated with a clinically meaningful OS. The tumor biomarker characterization comprised the first description of potential mechanisms of resistance to HER3-DXd therapy.

Abstract
A frequency-dependent dielectric constant characterizes the dielectric response of a medium and also represents the time scale of system's collective dynamics. Although it is valuable not only academically but also practically for developing advanced devices, getting the value of a solution at the interface with a solid or electrode surface is challenging both experimentally and computationally. Here, we propose a computational method that imitates the dielectric spectroscopy and AC impedance measurement. It combines a time-dependent voltage applied molecular dynamics simulation with an equivalent circuit representation of a system composed of a solution confined between two identical electrodes. It gives the frequency-dependent dielectric constants of the bulk solution and the interface simultaneously. Unlike the conventional method, it does not require computation of a dipole autocorrelation function and its Fourier transformation. Application of the method on a system of water confined between polarizable Pt electrodes gives the static dielectric constant and the relaxation time of the bulk water in good agreement with previous simulation results and experimental values. In addition, it gives a much smaller static dielectric constant at the interface, consistent with previous observations. The outline of the dielectric dispersion curve of the interface seems similar to that of the bulk, but the relaxation time is several times faster.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The usage of Riemannian geometry for Brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) has gained momentum in recent years. Most of the machine learning techniques proposed for Riemannian BCIs consider the data distribution on a manifold to be unimodal. However, the distribution is likely to be multimodal rather than unimodal since high-data variability is a crucial limitation of electroencephalography (EEG). In this paper, we propose a novel data modeling method for considering complex data distributions on a Riemannian manifold of EEG covariance matrices, aiming to improve BCI reliability. METHODS Our method, Riemannian spectral clustering (RiSC), represents EEG covariance matrix distribution on a manifold using a graph with proposed similarity measurement based on geodesic distances, then clusters the graph nodes through spectral clustering. This allows flexibility to model both a unimodal and a multimodal distribution on a manifold. RiSC can be used as a basis to design an outlier detector named outlier detection Riemannian spectral clustering (odenRiSC) and a multimodal classifier named multimodal classifier Riemannian spectral clustering (mcRiSC). All required parameters of odenRiSC/mcRiSC are selected in data-driven manner. Moreover, there is no need to pre-set a threshold for outlier detection and the number of modes for multimodal classification. RESULTS The experimental evaluation revealed odenRiSC can detect EEG outliers more accurately than existing methods and mcRiSC outperformed the standard unimodal classifier, especially on high-variability datasets. CONCLUSION odenRiSC/mcRiSC are anticipated to contribute to making real-life BCIs outside labs and neuroergonomics applications more robust. SIGNIFICANCE RiSC can work as a robust EEG outlier detector and multimodal classifier.

Abstract
In patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), controlling serum uric acid (SUA) and blood glucose levels is important. Moreover, sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors decrease SUA levels by accelerating urinary uric acid excretion. We investigated the effect of baseline urinary glucose levels on the relationship between SGLT2 inhibitors and SUA levels. We conducted a retrospective observational study using the electronic medical records of patients with T2DM of Kindai University Nara Hospital (April 2013 to March 2022). We divided the patients into two groups according to their baseline urinary glucose levels: the N-UG group, which included patients with negative urinary glucose strip test results (-), and the P-UG group, which included patients with positive urinary glucose strip test results (± or more). The changes in SUA levels before and after SGLT2 inhibitor administration were investigated. For comparison, the changes in SUA levels before and after the prescription of antidiabetic agents, excluding SGLT2 inhibitors, were also investigated. Our results revealed that SGLT2 inhibitors significantly decreased the SUA levels in patients in the N-UG group but tended to decrease its levels in those in the P-UG group. Regardless of the urinary glucose status at baseline, the administration of SGLT2 inhibitors may be useful for patients with T2DM to prevent the complications of hyperuricemia.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) requires delivery quality assurance (DQA) to ensure treatment accuracy and safety. Irradiation techniques such as helical tomotherapy (HT) have become increasingly complex, rendering conventional verification methods insufficient. This study aims to develop a novel DQA system to simultaneously verify dose distribution and multi-leaf collimator (MLC) opening during HT. METHODS We developed a prototype detector consisting of a cylindrical plastic scintillator (PS) and a cooled charge-coupled device (CCD) camera. Scintillation light was recorded using a CCD camera. A TomoHDA (Accuray Inc.) was used as the irradiation device. The characteristics of the developed system were evaluated based on the light intensity. The IMRT plan was irradiated onto the PS to record a moving image of the scintillation light. MLC opening and light distribution were obtained from the recorded images. To detect MLC opening, we placed a region of interest (ROI) on the image, corresponding to the leaf position, and analyzed the temporal change in the light intensity within each ROI. Corrections were made for light changes due to differences in the PS shape and irradiation position. The corrected light intensity was converted into the leaf opening time (LOT), and an MLC sinogram was constructed. The reconstructed MLC sinogram was compared with that calculated using the treatment planning system (TPS). Light distribution was obtained by integrating all frames obtained during IMRT irradiation. The light distribution was compared with the dose distribution calculated using the TPS. RESULTS The LOT and the light intensity followed a linear relationship. Owing to MLC movements, the sensitivity and specificity of the reconstructed sinogram exceeded 97%, with an LOT error of - 3.9 ± 7.8%. The light distribution pattern closely resembled that of the dose distribution. The average dose difference and the pass rate of gamma analysis with 3%/3 mm were 1.4 ± 0.2% and 99%, respectively. CONCLUSION We developed a DQA system for simultaneous and accurate verification of both dose distribution and MLC opening during HT.

Abstract
We extend gigahertz time-domain imaging to a wideband investigation of the eigenstates of a phononic crystal cavity. Using omnidirectionally excited phonon wave vectors, we implement an ultrafast technique to experimentally probe the two-dimensional acoustic field inside and outside a hexagonal cavity in a honeycomb-lattice phononic crystal formed in a microscopic crystalline silicon slab, thereby revealing the confinement and mode volumes of phonon eigenstates-some of which are clearly hexapole in character-lying both inside and outside the phononic-crystal band gap. This allows us to obtain a quantitative measure of the spatial acoustic energy storage characteristics of a phononic crystal cavity. We also introduce a numerical approach involving toneburst excitation and the monitoring of the acoustic energy decay together with the integral of the Poynting vector to calculate the Q factor of the principal in-gap eigenmode, showing it to be limited by ultrasonic attenuation rather than by phonon leakage to the surrounding region.

Abstract
The indications for stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) for prostate cancer have increased. However, the relationships between adverse events and risk factors remain unclear. This study aimed to clarify associations between adverse events and dose index for prostate SBRT. Participants comprised 145 patients irradiated with 32-36 Gy in 4 fractions. Radiotherapy-related risk factors such as dose-volume histogram parameters and patient-related risk factors such as T stage and Gleason score were evaluated in a competing risk analysis. Median follow-up duration was 42.9 months. A total of 9.7% had acute Grade ≥ 2 GU toxicities and 4.8% had acute Grade ≥ 2 GI toxicities. A total of 11.1% had late Grade ≥ 2 GU toxicities and 7.6% had late Grade ≥ 2 GI toxicities. Two (1.4%) patients suffered from late Grade 3 GU toxicities. Similarly, two (1.4%) patients suffered from late Grade 3 GI toxicities. Acute GU and GI events correlated with prostate volume and dose to the hottest 10 cc volume (D10cc)/volumes receiving a minimum of 30 Gy (V30 Gy) of rectum, respectively. Late GI toxicity, frequency, and rectal hemorrhage correlated with rectal D0.1 cc/D1 cc, maximum dose to the bladder, and rectal D0.1 cc, respectively. Toxicities after prostate SBRT using 32-36 Gy/4 fractions were acceptable. Our analysis showed that acute toxicities correlated with volume receiving a medium dose level, and late toxicities correlated with highest point dose of organs at risk.

Abstract
Approximately 80% of desmoid tumors (DTs) show spontaneous regression or disease stabilization during first-line active surveillance. Medical treatment can be considered in cases of disease progression. This systematic review aimed to evaluate the effectiveness and toxicity of each medical treatment by reviewing only the studies that included progressive disease as the inclusion criterion. We searched the EMBASE, PubMed, and CENTRAL databases to identify published studies for progressive DTs. The disease control rates of the medical treatments, such as low-dose chemotherapy with methotrexate plus vinblastine or vinorelbine, imatinib, sorafenib, pazopanib, nilotinib, anlotinib, doxorubicin-based agents, liposomal doxorubicin, hydroxyurea, and oral vinorelbine for progressive DTs were 71-100%, 78-92%, 67-96%, 84%, 88%, 86%, 89-100%, 90-100%, 75%, and 64%, respectively. Low-dose chemotherapy, sorafenib, pazopanib, nilotinib, anlotinib, and liposomal doxorubicin had similar toxicities. Sorafenib and pazopanib were less toxic than imatinib. Doxorubicin-based chemotherapy was associated with the highest toxicity. Hydroxyurea and oral vinorelbine exhibited the lowest toxicity. Stepwise therapy escalation from an initial, less toxic treatment to more toxic agents is recommended for progressive DTs. Sorafenib and pazopanib had limited on-treatment side effects but had the possibility to induce long-term treatment-related side effects. In contrast, low-dose chemotherapy has some on-treatment side effects and is known to have very low long-term toxicity. Thus, for progressive DTs following active surveillance, low-dose chemotherapy is recommended in young patients as long-term side effects are minor, whereas therapies such as sorafenib and pazopanib is recommended for older patients as early side effects are minor.

Abstract
PURPOSE Pheochromocytoma crisis is a life-threatening endocrine emergency that requires prompt diagnosis and treatment. Because of its rarity, sudden onset, and lack of internationally uniform and validated diagnostic criteria, pheochromocytoma crisis remains to be fully clarified. Therefore, we aimed to describe the clinical characteristics and outcomes of pheochromocytoma crisis through a literature review. METHODS We performed a systematic literature search of PubMed/MEDLINE database, Igaku-Chuo-Zasshi (Japanese database), and Google Scholar to identify case reports of pheochromocytoma crisis published until February 5, 2021. Information was extracted and analyzed from the literature that reported adequate individual patient data of pheochromocytoma crisis in English or Japanese. Cases were also termed as pheochromocytoma multisystem crisis (PMC) if patients had signs of hyperthermia, multiple organ failure, encephalopathy, and labile blood pressure. RESULTS In the 200 cases of pheochromocytoma crisis identified from 187 articles, the mean patient age was 43.8 ± 15.5 years. The most common symptom was headache (39.5%). The heart was the most commonly damaged organ resulting from a complication of a pheochromocytoma crisis (99.0%), followed by the lungs (44.0%) and the kidney (21.5%). PMC accounted for 19.0% of all pheochromocytoma crisis cases. After excluding 12 cases with unknown survival statuses, the mortality rate was 13.8% (26/188 cases). Multivariable logistic regression analysis revealed that nausea and vomiting were significantly associated with a higher mortality rate. CONCLUSION Pheochromocytoma can present with different symptomatology, affecting different organ systems. Clinicians should be aware that patients with nausea or vomiting are at a higher risk of death because of pheochromocytoma crisis.

Abstract
Background Klippel-Trenaunay-Weber syndrome (KTWS) is a rare congenital malformation. Although there have been few reports on anaesthetic management of patients with KTWS, there is a lack of data on anaesthetic management for abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) surgeries in these patients. Case presentation A 74-year-old man (height, 160 cm and body weight, 51.5 kg) with KTWS was scheduled for AAA replacement. Abdominal computed tomography (CT) showed prominent tortuosity below the abdominal aorta with an infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysm, right common iliac artery aneurysm, and right external iliac artery aneurysm. Moreover, a remarkably noted arteriovenous fistula had developed between the aneurysm and peripheral artery. General anaesthesia was induced. Furthermore, a central venous catheter and an 8.5 French sheath in the left internal jugular vein were inserted. During the operation, bleeding from a collateral vessel in the cross-clamped aorta led the surgeon to decide to perform aneurysmorrhaphy. Intraoperatively, blood loss was 1500 ml, and 20 units of red blood cell concentrate were used. Conclusions Regarding AAA procedures in patients with KTWS, aortic cross-clamping may not sufficiently intercept blood flow due to collateral vessels. In these patients, the anaesthesiologist must be prepared to transfuse blood more rapidly and frequently than during normal AAA procedures.

Abstract
We fabricated a wearable sensor that can be attached to the skin surface and continuously measure core body temperature (CBT) wirelessly over a long period. CBT is calculated from skin-surface temperature and heat flux passing through the sensor. Since heat flux is lost to the surroundings of the probe, the slightest change in convection in daily life will degrade the measurement accuracy of the sensor. Accordingly, we previously proposed a heat-flux-path control structure to reduce the absolute amount of heat-flux loss. To make wearable sensors for long-term human trials, we proposed an integrated design in which a sensor probe, a circuit board, and a battery are stacked. We optimized the proposed design by computer simulation and evaluated the fabricated sensor by a phantom experiment in which the convectional state was changed. The evaluation results demonstrate that the sensor has limits of agreement (LOA) of [-0.13; 0.03]°C under 1-m/s-wind convection. Moreover, a preliminary human trial conducted under daily-life conditions (including convectional changes) demonstrated that the sensor has LOA of [-0.18; 0.22]°C. These results demonstrate that the fabricated sensor is suitable for CBT measurement.

Abstract
Abstract
Study question
Does ovarian reserve decline with a symmetrical manner between right and left ovaries in poor responders (POR) with diminished ovarian reserve (DOR)?
Summary answer
Asymmetrical ovarian response to ovarian stimulation with the left-side dominance was found in POR with DOR.
What is known already
Ovarian follicles are produced during fetal stage and not regenerated after birth. Thus, the number of ovarian follicles declines with age, resulting in infertile POR with DOR. In the morphometric study of human neonatal ovaries, no significant difference was found in the number of follicles between the right and left ovaries in the same individual. A previous study demonstrated that there is a difference in the number of follicles between right and left ovaries in patients with normal ovarian reserve with the right-side dominance, suggesting the asymmetrical activation and growth of follicles.
Study design, size, duration
A retrospective analysis was conducted in patients with POR with DOR based on the Bologna Criteria. Inclusion criteria was patients who received more than five times of ovarian stimulations followed by oocyte retrievals. Data were obtained from a total of 265 participants who received IVF-ET treatments from April 2015 to March 2021 after receiving written informed consents under an approval from the institutional ethical committee. Patients with the history of previous ovarian surgery were excluded.
Participants/materials, setting, methods
The enrolled patients were received ovarian simulation under short or GnRH antagonist protocols for oocyte retrieval. We collected the data of retrieved oocyte number as well as the outcome of IVF from medical chart. We defined the right-left asymmetry of ovarian reserve (%) based on the number of retrieved oocytes from dominant side ovary per total number of retrieved oocytes. Statistical significance was determined using Dunnett or chi-square tests, with P < 0.05 being statistically significant.
Main results and the role of chance
The average age of participants was 37.2±5.99 years of age exhibiting low serum AMH levels (average 0.09±0.20 ng/ml). We analyzed 2,181 cycles of ovarian stimulation (average 8.3±3.9 cycles/patient). The number of retrieved oocytes were 3, 882 in total cycles (average 12.8±7.1/patient). Among participants, 22 cases (8.4%) showed left and right equal in the number of retrieved oocytes, whereas >70% asymmetry was observed in 107 cases (40.7%) and >80% asymmetry was detected in 60 cases (22.8%). In 18 cases (6.9%), oocytes were collected from one side ovary only showing 100% asymmetry. In the cases with >70 and 100% asymmetry, the left-side dominance was 1.3-fold and 5.0-fold higher than right-side dominance, respectively. In cases with 100% asymmetry, there was no difference in the number of cryopreserved high-quality embryos between left and right sides of ovary.
Limitations, reasons for caution
Although we enrolled POR with DOR patients who received ovarian stimulations more than five times, the duration of ovarian stimulation was different among patients. It affects the numbers of ovarian stimulation cycles and retrieved oocytes in each patient.
Wider implications of the findings
Considering the finding of right-side dominance in the number of follicles with normal ovarian reserve, the activation and development of follicles might be accelerated in the right side due to asymmetric blood supply to the ovaries, and thus follicles are likely remained in the left-side ovary with low ovarian reserve.

Abstract
BackgroundThe risk of pregnancy complications, such as gestational hypertension is high in pregnancies with SLE. In addition, the risk of flare is elevated if pregnancy occurs during the high disease activity. The EULAR recommendation provides a checklist for preconception counseling, in which patients with SLE desiring pregnancy were required the condition that the disease activity prior to pregnancy should be stable for 6-12 months in terms of serological activity (1). However, it does not provide specific criteria for serological activity so that physicians should evaluate the risk of pregnancy in each case by their clinical intuitions.ObjectivesIn order to uncover the present clinical situation for the acceptability of pregnancy in patients with SLE, we performed questionnaire survey to physicians regarding to the degree of serological activity.MethodsThis cross-sectional study was performed to physicians registered with the Japanese College of Rheumatology from December 2020 to January 2021 using the online survey. The questionnaire asked about the characteristics of physicians, facilities and the permission of pregnancies with SLE using vignette scenarios. In this study, data from vignettes of women visiting a regular outpatient clinic were used. The vignettes varied in age (28 or 35 years), duration of stable disease and serological activity. Analysis methods were descriptive statistics, chi-square test. generalized estimating equations (GEE) was performed to investigate the relationship between the determining permission for pregnancy and the scenario patient’s characteristics (age, period of stable disease, titer of anti ds-DNA antibody)ResultsThe questionnaire was distributed to 4946 physicians, and 463 responded. Completion rate (ratio agreed to participate/finished survey) of survey was 91.1%. The median age of physicians was 46 (interquartile range (IQR) 2-10). The specialty was rheumatology (84.9%), other internal medicine (8%), and pediatrics (5.6%). There were no significant differences in patient’s age about the acceptability of pregnancy (coeffficianet -0.02, 95% CI -0.17 -0.01, p=0.42). Case who had been stable for 6 months were more tolerant of pregnancy than case who had been stable for 3 months (coeffficianet 0.12, 95% CI 0.09-0.15, P<0.001) Pregnancy was not allowed in case with mild or high serological activity (mild: coefficient -0.49, 95% CI -0.29- -0.22, p <0.001, high: -0.64, 95% CI -0.65 - -0.61, p <0.001). In contrast, as many as 92 (19.2%) physicians tolerated pregnancy even in the presence of residual high anti ds-DNA antibody titers. Female physicians are significantly more cautious about pregnancy than male when patients have a serologically high activity (12% vs 37.5%, p<0.001). There were no significant differences in specialty status or clinical experience.ConclusionWe found that even mild serological activity alone had a significant negative effect on the physician’s decision to allow pregnancy. We conclude that current physicians make cautious decisions about pregnancies of patients with SLE following the recommendation. On the other hand, an additional investigation should be performed about the results of pregnancies in patients with serological abnormalities, since there are some physicians who thought that pregnancy may be acceptable for patients with only serological abnormalities if the clinical symptoms are stable.References[1]Ann Rheum Dis.2017 Mar;76(3):476-485AcknowledgementsI would like to express my gratitude to the members of Japan College of Rheumatology who cooperated in filling out the questionnaire.Disclosure of InterestsSakiko Isojima: None declared, Nobuyuki Yajima: None declared, Ryo Yanai: None declared, Yoko Miura: None declared, Shingo Fukuma: None declared, Kayoko Kaneko: None declared, Keishi Fujio: None declared, Kenji Oku: None declared, Masakazu Matsushita: None declared, Takako Miyamae: None declared, Takashi Wada: None declared, Yuko Kaneko: None declared, Yoshiya Tanaka Speakers bureau: Y.
