Abstract
Objective This study examined the association between sudden natural death and abdominal fat using postmortem computed tomography (CT) scans. Subjects and methods Postmortem CT images at the umbilical level of 241 subjects were used to measure abdominal areas of subcutaneous‐ and visceral fat, the rate of visceral fat and the waist circumference. Of the study subjects, 174 died of sudden natural death (130 men and 44 women), and 67 died of different causes (46 men and 21 women). All were between 40 and 75 years of age. Logistic regression analysis was performed to identify independent abdominal parameters associated with sudden natural death. Results By univariate analysis, the areas of subcutaneous and visceral fat were significantly larger in sudden natural death than who died of different causes (subcutaneous fat, odds ratio [OR] = 1.004, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.000–1.007, p = 0.03; visceral fat, OR = 1.008, 95% CI = 1.003–1.013, p < 0.01). Multivariate analysis showed that the area of visceral fat was an independent factor associated with the risk of sudden natural death (OR = 1.008, 95% CI = 1.002–1.015, p = 0.02). Conclusions Postmortem CT revealed that sudden natural death was related to abdominal fat deposits.

Abstract
This study investigated relationships between the frequent intake of fermented milk products containing Lactobacillus casei strain Shirota (LcS) and the onset of hypertension (resting systemic pressure ≥140 mmHg [systolic]/≥90 mmHg [diastolic], a doctor’s diagnosis and/or antihypertensive medicine use) during a 5-year period in 352 communityliving Japanese aged 65 to 93 years (125 men and 227 women). Initially normotensive subjects were divided into two groups (n=254 and n=98) on the basis of their intake of fermented milk products (<3 or ≥3 times/week, respectively), as estimated during an interview by a certified nutritionist. The incidence of hypertension over the 5-year interval was significantly lower in those who took fermented milk products ≥3 rather than <3 times/week (6.1 vs 14.2%, P=0.037). A multivariate-adjusted proportional hazards model predicted that blood pressures were significantly more likely to remain normal over 5 years in subjects who took ≥3 fermented milk products rather than <3 times/ week (relative risk 0.398 [95% confidence interval 0.167-0.948], P=0.037). These results suggest that after adjustment for potential confounders, the risk of developing hypertension is substantially lower in elderly people who take fermented milk products containing LcS at least 3 times a week.

Abstract
Intravenous sedation is useful for dental treatment in patients with intellectual disabilities. However, it is often necessary to manage such patients with deep sedation because their cooperation cannot be obtained. During deep sedation, undetected hypoventilation can lead to severe complications, such as hypoxia. Recently, capnographic monitoring has been advocated as a useful technique for preventing hypoxia during sedation. This randomized control trial evaluated whether the use of capnography reduces the incidence of hypoxia during the deep sedation of patients for dental treatment. This study involved patients with intellectual disabilities who underwent dental treatment under sedation. The subjects were randomized to the intervention group (I-group) or control group (C-group). All of the patients underwent routine monitoring, as well as bispectral index (BIS) and capnographic monitoring; however, only an independent observer had access to the patients’ capnographic data during the dental procedures. Sedation was maintained at a BIS of 50 to 70 by administration of propofol. In the I-group, the independent observer signaled to the dental anesthesiologist if the capnogram indicated that the patient had been suffering from alveolar hypoventilation or apnea for >15 s. In the C-group, the observer signaled to the dental anesthesiologist if the capnogram indicated that the patient had been suffering from alveolar hypoventilation or apnea for >60 s. In both groups, the dental anesthesiologists responded to the signals using appropriate airway management strategies. The primary endpoint of this study was the incidence of hypoxia during dental treatment, which was defined as oxygen saturation of <95%. Hypoxemic episodes occurred in 13.4% and 34.8% of cases in the I-group and C-group, respectively. The incidence of hypoxia was significantly lower in the I-group. These results suggest that capnographic monitoring during deep sedation for dental treatment prevents hypoxemic episodes by allowing the early detection of hypoventilation. Knowledge Transfer Statement: This is the first randomized controlled trial to examine whether the use of capnography reduces the incidence of hypoxia during deep sedation for dental treatment. The findings of this study can be used by clinicians to aid decision-making regarding dental sedation standards at individual clinics. Moreover, they can be used as high-level evidence during the production or updating of clinical guidelines for dental sedation by leading associations.

Abstract
We previously reported our data on telaprevir (TVR) used in combination with pegylated-interferon and ribavirin (PEG-IFN/RBV) for the treatment of recurrent hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotype 1 infection after liver transplantation (LT). TVR substantially increases the blood levels of immunosuppressive agents such as cyclosporine and tacrolimus for drug-drug interactions. On the other hand, the effect of simeprevir (SMV) on the blood levels of these immunosuppressive agents is unclear. We report 2 patients who achieved viral responses with little effect on the blood levels of cyclosporine and tacrolimus using SMV plus PEG-IFN/RBV treatment. The first was a 71-year-old woman with HCV-related liver cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma who failed to respond to PEG-IFN/RBV after living donor LT. She was treated with 40 mg/d of cyclosporine, and received SMV plus PEG-IFN/RBV treatment. The second was a 65-year-old man with HCV-related liver cirrhosis who failed to respond to PEG-IFN/RBV after living donor LT. He was treated with 3 mg/d of tacrolimus, and received SMV plus PEG-IFN/RBV treatment. Serum HCV RNA became undetectable using TaqMan polymerase chain reaction (PCR) test after 4 weeks of treatment in both patients, and no remarkable fluctuation in blood concentration was observed either in cyclosporine or tacrolimus during the 12 weeks of SMV treatment. Completion of 12-week SMV triple therapy was followed by PEG-IFNα2b plus RBV, and both patients achieved sustained virological response 12 weeks after the end of treatment. SMV plus PEG-IFNRBV treatment showed a remarkable viral response with little effect on blood levels of immunosuppressive agents for recurrent HCV genotype 1 infection after LT.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to investigate the influence of heat treatment on glucocorticoid (GC)-induced myopathy. Eight-week-old Wistar rats were randomly assigned to the control, Dex, and Dex + Heat groups. Dexamethasone (2 mg/kg) was injected subcutaneously 6 days per week for 2 weeks in the Dex and Dex + Heat group. In the Dex + Heat group, heat treatment was performed by immersing hindlimbs in water at 42 °C for 60 min, once every 3 days for 2 weeks. The extensor digitorum longus muscle was extracted following 2 weeks of experimentation. In the Dex + Heat group, muscle fiber diameter, capillary/muscle fiber ratio, and level of heat shock protein 72 were significantly higher and atrogene expression levels were significantly lower than in the Dex group. Our results suggest that heat treatment inhibits the development of GC-induced myopathy by decreasing atrogene expression and increasing angiogenesis.

Abstract
Based on our previously developed scheme to stabilize nonplanar optical resonant cavities utilizing polarization caused by a geometric phase in electromagnetic waves traveling along a twisted path, we report an application of the technique for a cavity installed in the Accelerator Test Facility, a 1.3-GeV electron beam accelerator at KEK, in which photons are generated by laser-Compton scattering. We successfully achieved a power enhancement of 1200 with 1.4% fluctuation, which means that the optical path length of the cavity has been controlled with a precision of 14 pm under an accelerator environment. In addition, polarization switching utilizing a geometric phase of the nonplanar cavity was demonstrated.

Abstract
A novel scheme for the focusing of high-energy leptons in future linear colliders was proposed in 2001 [P. Raimondi and A. Seryi, Phys. Rev. Lett. 86, 3779 (2001)]. This scheme has many advantageous properties over previously studied focusing schemes, including being significantly shorter for a given energy and having a significantly better energy bandwidth. Experimental results from the ATF2 accelerator at KEK are presented that validate the operating principle of such a scheme by demonstrating the demagnification of a 1.3 GeV electron beam down to below 65 nm in height using an energy-scaled version of the compact focusing optics designed for the ILC collider.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: Brain metastases (BM) occur in 10%-15% patients of breast cancer patients. It is associated with poor prognosis, requiring great effort to manage local and systemic treatment for BM. The purpose of this study was to analyze the clinico-pathological characteristics of long-term survivors with BM in breast cancer patients.
Method: 63 patients with breast cancer BM diagnosed from 2002 to 2010 at the Tokyo Metropolitan Komagome hospital were included. Long–term survival group (Long) was defined as to be consisted of the patients with survival duration more than 36 months after diagnosed with BM and the patients with less than 36 month was into Short-term survival group (Short) in this study. The clinico-pathological characteristics were compared between these two groups. Survival rate and prognostic factors of BM were analyzed by the Kaplan–Meier method and employed by Log–Rank test. Multivariate analysis was performed by the Cox proportional hazard model.
Results: Median age of the 63 patients was 53 years (range, 35–78). Median survival time after BM was 12 months (range, 1–168), with about 90 percent of cause of death related to BM (e.g. failure of PS due to BM). As for ER and HER2 status, the number of ER+/HER2- (Luminal:Lum), ER+or-/HER2+ (HER2-enrich:Her2-E), ER-/HER2- (Basal:Bas) were 18, 27, 18, respectively. Among those 63 patients, 11 survived 36 months or more after BM. However, there was no difference in the rate of ER status between Long (55%) and Short (38%), there were significantly high rate of Her2-E case in Long (73%) as compared with Short (29%). Median survival duration after diagnosed with BM of Lum, Her2-E and Bas were 11, 37, 3 months, respectively. Prognosis of Bas was significantly poor (Bas vs. Her2-E p<0.001), and although Her2-E was not significant as compared with ER (p = 0.188), survival time after BM of Her2-E was the tendency to be long. In univariate analysis, Karnofsky performance status (KPS≥70 or <70), HER2 status, disease free interval (from initial diagnosis to first recurrence, DFI≥2years or <2years) had significant impact on survival time after BM. (p = 0.0458, 0.0398, 0.0385, respectively). Meningitis status was a borderline. (p = 0.052) In multivariate analysis, KPS, HER2 status and DFI were significant prognostic factors. (KPS: RR 2.08, 95% CI 1.08-4.07; HER2: RR 2.911, 95% CI 1.396- 6.484; DFI: RR 1.933, 95% CI 0.83-4.102)
Conclusions: Although, it was believed that the prognosis after BM was poor, Her2-E BM had a comparatively good prognosis. An existing report supports extension of the survival time after BM by HER2–targeted treatment in BM cases with Her2 positive breast cancer. This newest study reviles the median survival after BM as 37 months in Her2-E BM group, but that of Bas group was only 3 months and this is not improved at all compared with historically reported survival duration (2.4-4.9months). Our reports suggested that the innovation of Her2–targeted treatment leads this surprising improvement of life extension in HER2 positive BM patients but innovation of cytotoxic agents could not contribute toward improvement of clinical outcome in triple negative BM patients. So the necessity of examining the medical treatment of breast cancer BM according to subtype from now on is also considered.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Minodronate is a nitrogen-containing bisphosphonate that is commercially available for the treatment of osteoporosis in Japan. Preclinical studies demonstrated that minodronate is at least 10 times more potent than alendronate in inhibiting bone resorption in vivo. A high incidence of fractures, particularly of the hip, represents an important problem in Alzheimer disease (AD) patients who are prone to falls and may have osteoporosis. METHODS A total of 256 elderly patients with AD were assigned to daily treatment with 1.0 mg of minodronate or a daily treatment with risedronate combined with daily 1000 IU ergocalciferol and 1200 mg elemental calcium, and followed up for 12 months. RESULTS At baseline, patients of both groups showed low 25-hydroxyvitamin D with compensatory hyperparathyroidism. Non-vertebral fractures occurred in 5 patients in the minodronate group and 7 patients in the risedronate group (5 hip fractures; one fracture each at the distal forearm and pelvis). There was no difference in risk of hip fracture between the two groups (p=.70; odds ratio=0.8). CONCLUSIONS The study medications were well tolerated with relatively few adverse events and were equivalent in reducing the risk of a fracture in elderly patients with AD.

Abstract
Factors that can interfere with the successful treatment of Mycobacterium avium lung infection have been inadequately studied. To identify a potent predictor of therapeutic responses of M. avium lung infection, we analyzed variable number tandem repeats (VNTR) at 16 minisatellite loci of M. avium clinical isolates. Associations between the VNTR profiling data and a therapeutic response were evaluated in 59 subjects with M. avium lung infection. M. avium lung infection of 30 subjects in whom clarithromycin-containing regimens produced microbiological and radiographic improvement was defined as responsive disease, while that of the remaining 29 subjects was defined as refractory disease. In phylogenetic analysis using the genotypic distance aggregated from 16-dimensional VNTR data, 59 M. avium isolates were divided into three clusters, which showed a nearly significant association with therapeutic responses (p 0.06). We then subjected the raw 16-dimensional VNTR data directly to principal component analysis, and identified the genetic features that were significantly associated with the therapeutic response (p <0.05). By further analysis of logistic regression with a stepwise variable-selection, we constructed the highest likelihood multivariate model, adjusted for age, to predict a therapeutic response, using VNTR data from only four minisatellite loci. In conclusion, we identified four mycobacterial minisatellite loci that together were associated with the therapeutic response of M. avium lung infections.

Abstract
Life span could be modified by genetic or environmental perturbations in Caenorhabditis elegans. Here we show that two extensions of life span are associated with oxidative stress resistance and upregulation of the gene expression of antioxidant enzymes. First, mutations in age-1 gene (PI3 kinase homologue) that confer life span extension, display oxidative stress resistance and increase in the gene expression of sod-3, one of two Mn-superoxide dismutases (SOD) and ctl-1, cytosolic catalase. In this study, these traits appear to be regulated by the following genetic pathway: daf-2 (insulin receptor family)-> daf-18 (PTEN homologue)-> age-1-> daf-16 (Fork head transcription factor family), similar to the genetic pathway for the life span extension. Second, we show that short-term exposure to hyperoxia extends life span slightly but significantly. This treatment increases oxidative stress resistance and the gene expression of three types of SOD isoforms. These results suggest that both of these two life span extensions are closely related with increase in the antioxidant defense function.

Abstract
An 83-year-old woman was referred to our emergency department with acute urticaria and sudden shortness of breath approximately 30 min after taking rectal diclofenac potassium for lumbago. After treatment with adrenaline and corticosteroids, the patient became hemodynamically stable and left the hospital on the next day. She attended our hospital 1 week after the onset of anaphylaxis because of repeated postprandial epigastric pain. No abnormal lesions were found in endoscopy. Radiographic selective catheter angiography revealed chronic mesenteric ischemia caused by atherosclerosis and abundant collateral arteries between the celiac trunk, the superior mesenteric artery and the inferior mesenteric artery. Patients with chronic mesenteric ischemia usually present with a clinical syndrome characterized by painful abdominal cramps and colic occurring typically during the postprandial phase. Fear of eating resulted in malnutrition. She was prescribed proton pump inhibitor, digestants, anticholinergic agents, serine protease inhibitors, prokinetics, antiplatelet agents and transdermal nitroglycerin intermittently, but these had no beneficial effects. It was most probable that this patient with chronic atherosclerotic mesenteric ischemia was suffering from functional abdominal pain syndrome induced by anaphylaxis. Since psychiatric disorders were associated with alterations in the processing of visceral sensation, we facilitated the patient's understanding of functional abdominal pain syndrome with the psychologist. Postprandial abdominal pain gradually faded after administration of these drugs and the patient left the hospital. Developing a satisfactory patient-physician relationship was considered more effective for the management of persistent abdominal pain caused by complicated mechanisms.

Abstract
The case was 11-month-old girl diagnosed as tetralogy of Fallot with severe pulmonary valve stenosis and suffering from severe cyanosis. A catheter study demonstrated pulmonary artery (PA) was well arborized, but severely hypoplastic in spite of previous transcatheter pulmonary valve dilatation; PA index was calculated as 69 mm²/m². A central end-to-side aorta to PA shunt was created. Cyanosis was well improved, but congestive heart failure occurred after 1 month from the operation. Subsequent catheter study demonstrated pulmonary artery growth, 166 mm²/m² of PA index and major aortopulmonary collateral artery (MAPCA) coil embolization was performed. Patient underwent Rastelli type definitive repair 9 month after palliation. The central end-to-side aorta to PA shunt is reported as useful measure for promoting PA size increase and definitive repair achievement in patient with pulmonary atresia, ventricular septal defect and severely hypoplastic PA. Appropriate consideration of criteria, carefull follow up and treatments are necessary.

Abstract
A 48-year-old female with abdominal pain and malaise who showed delayed symptom of acute gastroenteritis came to see us. Her illness was diagnosed as norovirus infection, but liver dysfunction accompanied this gastroenteritis. We investigated the pathogenesis of this hepatitis for all causes including drugs, but we could not detect norovirus infection. The liver damage improved shortly in course of the gastroenteritis. She recovered completely within 2 weeks without any damage left. Norovirus-induced liver dysfunction is not known, and there is no report in the literature. We report, for the first time, the case of liver dysfunction with norovirus gastroenteritis.

Abstract
AbstractElemental segregation of CoCrTa and CoCrPt thin films for longitudinal and perpendicular media is investigated using high spacial resolution transmission electron microscopes equipped with compositional analysis facilities. Strong Cr segregation exceeding 20 at% within 1.5-2 nm width is observed along the grain boundaries for both types of CoCrTa films prepared at elevated substrate temperatures. Weaker Cr segregation is observed along the grain boundaries of the longitudinal and the perpendicular CoCrPt films. The strong Cr segregation at grain boundaries is related with the small magnetic cluster size and the low media noise characteristics of CoCrTa thin film media. The Cr content inside the grain is several % lower than the average composition of the CoCrTa films. The magnetocrystalline anisotropy constants(Ku) for different Cr compositions are determined using single crystalline thin film technology to discuss the thermal stability of recorded information.

Abstract
AbstractRecent successful results on the selective area growth (SAG) of GaN that has been done by MOVPE and HVPE are shown. The SAG were carried out on MOVPE-grown GaN (0001) / sapphire substrates with lined or dotted SiO2 masks. Sub-micron GaN dot and line structures are fabricated by the SAG in MOVPE, so that smoothly overgrown GaN layers are successfully realized using the epitaxially lateral overgrowth (ELO) technique. The ELO structures are confirmed to be good quality GaN single crystal with a smooth surface, no grain boundaries, and low-dislocation densities. In addition, thick GaN bulk single crystals without any cracks are grown by the SAG in HVPE. Crystalline and optical properties of the GaN bulk are much improved. The reduction in the thermal strain due to the growth on the limited area as well as the ELO are found to be effective to reduce crystalline defects of the GaN bulk single crystals.

Abstract
A significant bone-mass reduction occurs on the hemiplegic side of stroke patients because of disuse and vitamin D deficiency. This may explain why hip fractures in poststroke patients occur almost exclusively on the hemiplegic side. To further evaluate this osteopenia, bone mineral density (BMD) in both second metacarpals was assessed in 61 patients and 28 control subjects. Serum concentrations of intact parathyroid hormone (PTH), osteocalcin (OC), tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP), 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25-OHD), and calcium also were determined. The patients' BMD values were higher on the hemiplegic side than on the nonhemiplegic side. BMD on the hemiplegic side correlated positively with serum concentrations of PTH, OC and TRAP, which exceeded those in control subjects. Serum 25-OHD was low in patients, correlating negatively with BMD on the hemiplegic side. Serum PTH correlate positively with the levels of OC and TRAP and negatively with 25-OHD concentrations. The results indicate that skeletal remodeling is accelerated in patients with hemiplegia, with resorption predominating. We concluded that vitamin D deficiency and compensatory secondary hyperparathyroidism stimulating skeletal turnover is an important cause of osteopenia in the hemiplegic limbs of stroke patients. This osteopenia might be corrected by administration of etidronate to inhibit osteoclastic bone resorption together with a vitamin D supplement.

Abstract
Synthetic octacalcium phosphate (OCP) has been shown to enhance bone formation and to biodegrade if implanted into bone defects. Here, we hypothesized that an OCP-atelocollagen complex (OCP/Col) is biodegradable and can induce bone formation in a thickness-dependent manner when implanted into the calvaria. OCP/Col disks (diameter, 9 mm; thickness, 1 or 3 mm) were implanted into a subperiosteal pocket in the calvaria of 12-week-old Wistar rats for 4, 8, and 12 weeks and subsequent bone formation was monitored. X-ray diffraction analysis and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy showed that OCP in the OCP/Col implants was converted into a carbonate-rich apatite after 4 weeks. Although thinner disks tended to be replaced by new bone, thicker disks were progressively resorbed by osteoclast-like cells until 12 weeks, possibly via the increased mechanical load in the subperiosteal pocket. Therefore, OCP/Col can increase appositional intra-membranous bone formation if the appropriate size of the implant is applied.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Genetic aberrations involving the platelet-derived growth factor-beta (PDGFB) gene and the collagen type 1 alpha1 (COL1A1) gene have been implicated in the pathogenesis of dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans (DFSP), a slow-growing and locally infiltrative dermal tumour. AIM To investigate the genetic rearrangements in 10 patients who presented with a clinical diagnosis of DFSP. METHODS Total RNA was obtained from frozen sections and sections embedded in paraffin wax, and used for direct sequencing of the cDNA produced from reverse transcription (RT) PCR. The expression of PDFGB mRNA in each of these cases was also examined. RESULTS Of the 10 samples examined, 9 had the COL1A1/PDGFB fusion transcript by DNA sequencing. The sequenced products showed that there was a fusion between the end of exons 6, 8, 29 (two cases), 38, 25 or 47 (three cases) and the start of exon 2 of the PDGFB gene. Quantitative RT-PCR identified all samples as having significantly higher expression of the PDGFB gene compared with normal skin or dermatofibroma. CONCLUSIONS Detection of the COL1A1/PDGFB fusion transcript may be important for the diagnosis of DFSP. Furthermore, relative PDGFB gene quantification by real-time PCR may also provide a good diagnostic tool when other methods fail to give conclusive results.

Abstract
In this contribution, a first prototype for mobile respiratory motion detection using optical fibers embedded into textiles is presented. The developed system consists of a T-shirt with an integrated fiber sensor and a portable monitoring unit with a wireless communication link enabling the data analysis and visualization on a PC. A great effort is done worldwide to develop mobile solutions for health monitoring of vital signs for patients needing continuous medical care. Wearable, comfortable and smart textiles incorporating sensors are good approaches to solve this problem. In most of the cases, electrical sensors are integrated, showing significant limits such as for the monitoring of anaesthetized patients during Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). OFSETH (Optical Fibre Embedded into technical Textile for Healthcare) uses optical sensor technologies to extend the current capabilities of medical technical textiles.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To examine oral and maxillofacial lesions other than those related to the chief complaint in panoramic radiographs taken at the department of paediatric dentistry at our hospital. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed all 1092 patients who had visited the department of paediatric dentistry at our hospital and had a panoramic radiograph taken between August 1999 and October 2004. The following information was obtained from the patients' files and panoramic radiographs: gender, age, chief complaints and the presence or absence of lesions. RESULTS Lesions were observed in 140 of the 1092 panoramic radiographs (12.8%). Among the 140 patients discovered to have lesions in the panoramic radiographs, 66 (47.1%, or 6.05% of the entire group of 1092 patients) had different lesions from those underlying the chief complaint. These 66 patients ages ranged from 3 years to 14 years and the lesions involved 39 (59.1%) missing teeth, 20 (30.3%) mesiodentes, 4 supernumerary teeth, 1 odontoma, 1 radicular cyst and 1 impacted tooth. The missing teeth were observed in the central and lateral incisor, canine, and first and second premolar positions of both jaws, especially in the lower lateral incisor and upper central incisor positions. CONCLUSIONS We were able to detect incidental lesions at a rate of 6.05% (66 of 1092 patients) and at a relatively early age (mean 6.8 years) in the present study. Early treatment of these lesions could avoid maxillofacial deformity and other complications.
