Abstract
Abstract
Background
Recent studies have suggested that same-admission delayed cholecystectomy is a safe option. Patients with diabetes have been shown to have less favourable outcomes after cholecystectomy, but the impact of timing of operation for acute cholecystitis during the same admission is unknown.
Methods
This was a retrospective analysis of patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy for acute cholecystitis between 2004 and 2010, from the American College of Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement Program database. Patients with no significant co-morbidities (American Society of Anesthesiologists grade I or II) were included. Propensity score matching (PSM) was used to match patients with diabetes with those who did not have diabetes, in a ratio of 1 : 3, to ensure homogeneity of the two groups. Logistic regression models were applied to adjust for differences between early (within 24 h) and delayed (24 h or more) surgical treatment. The primary outcome was development of local and systemic infectious complications. Secondary outcomes were duration of operation and length of hospital stay.
Results
From a total of 2892 patients, 144 patients with diabetes were matched with 432 without diabetes by PSM. Delaying cholecystectomy for at least 24 h after admission in patients with diabetes was associated with significantly higher odds of developing surgical-site infections (adjusted odds ratio 4·11, 95 per cent confidence interval 1·11 to 15·22; P = 0·034) and a longer hospital stay. For patients with no diabetes, however, delaying cholecystectomy had no impact on complications or length of hospital stay.
Conclusion
Patients with diabetes who undergo laparoscopic cholecystectomy 24 h or more after admission may have an increased risk of postoperative surgical-site infection and a longer hospital stay than those undergoing surgery within 24 h of admission.

Abstract
Sialic acids (Sias) are often conjugated to the termini of cellular glycans and are key mediators of cellular recognition. Sias are nine-carbon acidic sugars, and, in vertebrates, the major species are N-acetylneuraminic acid (Neu5Ac) and N-glycolylneuraminic acid (Neu5Gc), differing in structure at the C5 position. Previously, we described a positive feedback loop involving regulation of Neu5Gc expression in mouse B cells. In this context, Neu5Gc negatively regulated B-cell proliferation, and Neu5Gc expression was suppressed upon activation. Similarly, resting mouse T cells expressed principally Neu5Gc, and Neu5Ac was induced upon activation. In the present work, we used various probes to examine sialoglycan expression by activated T cells in terms of the Sia species expressed and the linkages of Sias to glycans. Upon T-cell activation, sialoglycan expression shifted from Neu5Gc to Neu5Ac, and the linkage shifted from α2,6 to α2,3. These changes altered the expression levels of sialic acid-binding immunoglobulin-like lectin (siglec) ligands. Expression of sialoadhesin and Siglec-F ligands increased, and that of CD22 ligands decreased. Neu5Gc exerted a negative effect on T-cell activation, both in terms of the proliferative response and in the context of activation marker expression. Suppression of Neu5Gc expression in mouse T and B cells prevented the development of nonspecific CD22-mediated T cell-B cell interactions. Our results suggest that an activation-dependent shift from Neu5Gc to Neu5Ac and replacement of α2,6 by α2,3 linkages may regulate immune cell interactions at several levels.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The use of low-molecular-weight heparin (LMWH) for the chemoprophylaxis of venous thromboembolism (VTE) in trauma patients is supported by Level-1 evidence. Because Enoxaparin was the agent used in the majority of studies for establishing the efficacy of LMWH in VTE, it remains unclear if Dalteparin provides an equivalent effect. OBJECTIVE To compare Dalteparin to Enoxaparin and investigate their equivalence as VTE prophylaxis in trauma. PATIENTS/SETTING Trauma patients receiving VTE chemoprophylaxis in the Surgical Intensive Care Unit of a Level-1 Trauma Center from 2009 (Enoxaparin) to 2010 (Dalteparin) were included. MEASUREMENTS The primary outcome was the incidence of clinically significant VTE. Secondary outcomes included heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT), major bleeding, and drug acquisition cost savings. Equivalence margins were set between -5 and 5 %. MAIN RESULTS A total of 610 patient records (277 Enoxaparin, 333 Dalteparin) were reviewed. The two study groups did not differ significantly: blunt trauma 67 vs. 62 %, p = 0.27; mean Injury Severity Score (ISS) 17 ± 10 vs. 16 ± 10, p = 0.34; Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation (APACHE) II score 17 ± 9 vs. 17 ± 10, p = 0.76; time to first dose of LMWH 69 ± 98 vs. 65 ± 67 h, p = 0.57). The rates of deep venous thrombosis (DVT) (3.2 vs. 3.3 %, p = 1.00), pulmonary emboli (PE) (1.8 vs. 1.2 %, p = 0.74), and overall VTE (5.1 vs. 4.5 %, p = 0.85) did not differ. The absolute difference in the incidence of overall VTE was 0.5 % [95 % confidence interval (CI): -2.9, 4.0 %, p = 0.85]. The 95 % CI was within the predefined equivalence margins. There were no significant differences in the frequency of HIT or major bleeding. The total year-on-year cost savings, achieved with 277 patients during the switch to Dalteparin, was estimated to be $107,778. CONCLUSIONS Dalteparin is equivalent to Enoxaparin in terms of VTE in trauma patients and can be safely used in this population, with no increase in complications and significant cost savings.

Abstract
Brachytherapy plays a significant role in the management of cervical cancer, but the clinical significance of brachytherapy in the management of vaginal cancer remains to be defined. Thus, a single institutional experience in the treatment of primary invasive vaginal carcinoma was reviewed to define the role of brachytherapy. We retrospectively reviewed the charts of 36 patients with primary vaginal carcinoma who received definitive radiotherapy between 1992 and 2010. The treatment modalities included high-dose-rate intracavitary brachytherapy alone (HDR-ICBT; two patients), external beam radiation therapy alone (EBRT; 14 patients), a combination of EBRT and HDR-ICBT (10 patients), or high-dose-rate interstitial brachytherapy (HDR-ISBT; 10 patients). The median follow-up was 35.2 months. The 2-year local control rate (LCR), disease-free survival (DFS), and overall survival (OS) were 68.8%, 55.3% and 73.9%, respectively. The 2-year LCR for Stage I, II, III and IV was 100%, 87.5%, 51.5% and 0%, respectively (P = 0.007). In subgroup analysis consisting only of T2-T3 disease, the use of HDR-ISBT showed marginal significance for favorable 5-year LCR (88.9% vs 46.9%, P = 0.064). One patient each developed Grade 2 proctitis, Grade 2 cystitis, and a vaginal ulcer. We conclude that brachytherapy can play a central role in radiation therapy for primary vaginal cancer. Combining EBRT and HDR-ISBT for T2-T3 disease resulted in good local control.

Abstract
All-trans-retinoic acid (RA) plays a critical role in maintaining immune homeostasis. Mouse intestinal CD103⁺ dendritic cells (DCs) produce a high level of RA by highly expressing retinal dehydrogenase (RALDH)2, an enzyme that converts retinal to RA, and induce gut-homing T cells. However, it has not been identified which subset of human DCs produce a high level of RA. In this study, we show that CD1c⁺ blood myeloid DCs (mDCs) but not CD141(high) mDCs or plasmacytoid DCs exhibited a high level of RALDH2 mRNA and aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) activity in an RA- and p38-dependent manner when stimulated with 1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D₃ (VD₃) in the presence of GM-CSF. The ALDH activity was abrogated by TLR ligands or TNF. CD103⁻ rather than CD103⁺ human mesenteric lymph node mDCs gained ALDH activity in response to VD₃. Furthermore, unlike in humans, mouse conventional DCs in the spleen and mesenteric lymph nodes gained ALDH activity in response to GM-CSF alone. RALDH2(high) CD1c⁺ mDCs stimulated naive CD4⁺ T cells to express gut-homing molecules and to produce Th2 cytokines in an RA-dependent manner. This study suggests that CD1c⁺ mDCs are a major human DC subset that produces RA in response to VD₃ in the steady state. The "vitamin D-CD1c⁺mDC-RA" axis may constitute an important immune component for maintaining tissue homeostasis in humans.

Abstract
A general theoretical approach to the description of epitaxial layers with essentially different cell parameters and in-plane relaxation anisotropy is presented. A general theoretical approach to the description of epitaxial layers with essentially different cell parameters and in-plane relaxation anisotropy has been developed. A covariant description of relaxation in such structures has been introduced. An iteration method for evaluation of these parameters on the basis of the diffraction data set has been worked out together with error analysis and reliability checking. The validity of the presented theoretical approaches has been proved with a-ZnO on r-sapphire samples grown in the temperature range from 573 K up to 1073 K. A covariant description of relaxation anisotropy for these samples has been estimated with data measured for different directions of the diffraction plane relative to the sample surface.

Abstract
Macrophages (Mϕ) are well documented to produce IL-1β through various signaling pathways in response to small particles such as silica, asbestos and urea crystals, in the presence of lipopolysaccharide (LPS). However, it has not been clear to what extent particle size affects the response. To investigate this point, we stimulated bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDM) with size-defined latex beads (LxB). Although both nano-sized (20 nm) and micro-sized (1,000 nm) LxB induced IL-1β production, only the nano-sized particles formed large intracellular vacuoles. In contrast, 100 nm LxB did not induce either of the responses. The same cellular responses were also observed in primary microglia cells. Although K(+) efflux and NLRP3 activation in BMDM were crucial in response to both 20 and 1,000 nm LxB, only IL-1β production by 20 nm LxB was sensitive to cathepsin B and P2X7, a receptor for ATP. The response by 1,000 nm LxB relied on a robust production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), since IL-1β production was remarkably reduced by ROS inhibitors such as diphenylene iodonium (DPI) and N-acetylcysteine (NAC). In contrast, IL-1β production by 20 nm LxB was augmented by NAC and in BMDM deficient in thioredoxin-binding protein-2 (TBP-2), a negative regulator of the ROS scavenger thioredoxin. These results suggest that the cells responded differently in their secretion of IL-1β depending on particle size, and that there is a range within which neither pathway works.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Spinal injuries secondary to trauma are a major cause of patient morbidity and a source of significant health care expenditure. Increases in traffic safety standards and improved health care resources may have changed the characteristics and incidence of spinal injury. The purpose of this study was to review a single metropolitan Level I trauma centre's experience to assess the changing characteristics and incidence of traumatic spinal injuries and spinal cord injuries (SCI) over a 13-year period. PATIENTS AND METHODS A retrospective review of patients admitted to a Level I trauma centre between 1996 and 2008 was performed. Patients with spinal fractures and SCI were identified. Demographics, mechanism of injury, level of spinal injury and Injury Severity Score (ISS) were extracted. The outcomes assessed were the incidence rate of SCI and in-hospital mortality. RESULTS Over the 13-year period, 5.8% of all trauma patients suffered spinal fractures, with 21.7% of patients with spinal injuries having SCI. Motor vehicle accidents (MVAs) were responsible for the majority of spinal injuries (32.6%). The mortality rate due to spinal injury decreased significantly over the study period despite a constant mean ISS. The incidence rate of SCI also decreased over the years, which was paralleled by a significant reduction in MVA associated SCI (from 23.5% in 1996 to 14.3% in 2001 to 6.7% in 2008). With increasing age there was an increase in spinal injuries; frequency of blunt SCI; and injuries at multiple spinal levels. CONCLUSION This study demonstrated a reduction in mortality attributable to spinal injury. There has been a marked reduction in SCI due to MVAs, which may be related to improvements in motor vehicle safety and traffic regulations. The elderly population was more likely to suffer SCI, especially by blunt injury, and at multiple levels. Underlying reasons may be anatomical, physiological or mechanism related.

Abstract
Interferon regulatory factor (IRF)-2 is a transcription factor involved in type I (IFN- α/β) signaling. It has been reported that IRF-2 deficiency results in various immune dysfunctions. However, the role of IRF-2 in B-cell functions needs to be elucidated. Unlike wild-type (WT) B cells, IRF-2(-/-) B2 cells were refractory to anti-IgM, but not LPS. Such a defect in proliferation was dependent on IFN- α/β receptor (IFNAR). Marginal zone B cells increased in the proportion relative to B2 cells in IRF-2(-/-) mice produced IgM normally to LPS stimulation. However, IRF-2(-/-) B2 cells were defective in IgM production in an IFNAR-independent manner, although both B-cell subsets differentiated phenotypically to plasma cells at elevated efficiencies. Class switch recombination of IRF-2(-/-) B2 cells by LPS plus IL-4 was also impaired. Their reduced IgM production was conceivably due to an inefficient up-regulation of Blimp-1. Consistent with these in vitro observations, specific antibody production in vivo to a T-dependent antigen by B2 cells was severely impaired in IRF-2(-/- )mice. However, a low, but significant, level of IgG was detected at a late time point, and this IgG exhibited comparable binding affinity to that in WT mice. Follicular helper T-cell development and germinal center formation were normal. A similar tendency was observed when µ chain(-/-) mice were reconstituted with IRF-2(-/- )B cells. These results revealed a multi-faceted role of IRF-2 in the function of B cells, particularly B2 cells, through regulating proliferation in an IFNAR-dependent manner and antibody production via up-regulation of Blimp-1.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The effects of anastomotic complications after laparoscopically assisted gastrectomy (LAG) have not been studied widely. The aims of this observational study were to identify potential factors that predict anastomotic complications and investigate the impact of anastomotic complications in patients undergoing gastrectomy for early gastric cancer. METHODS The study included consecutive patients with histologically proven T1 gastric adenocarcinoma treated by LAG with regional lymphadenectomy between August 1997 and March 2008, who had not received neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Anastomotic complications included anastomotic leakage, stricture and remnant gastric stasis of grade II or higher (modified Clavien classification) and were identified by clinical assessment and confirmatory investigation. Predictive factors for the development of anastomotic complications were identified by univariable and multivariable analyses. Long-term survival with or without anastomotic complications was examined. RESULTS Anastomotic complications occurred in 37 (9·3 per cent) of 400 patients. Multivariable analysis indicated surgeon experience as the only independent predictor of anastomotic complications (hazard ratio 4·40, 95 per cent confidence interval 2·04 to 9·53; P < 0·001). Patients with anastomotic complications had a significantly worse overall 5-year survival rate than those without (81 versus 94·2 per cent; P = 0·009). CONCLUSION Anastomotic complications after LAG lead to worse long-term survival.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The clarification of cutaneous dendritic cell subset and the role of thymic stromal lymphopoietin (TSLP) signaling in epicutaneous sensitization with protein antigens, as in the development of atopic dermatitis, is a crucial issue. OBJECTIVES Because TSLP is highly expressed in the vicinity of Langerhans cells (LCs), we sought to clarify our hypothesis that LCs play an essential role in epicutaneous sensitization with protein antigens through TSLP signaling. METHODS By using Langerin-diphtheria toxin receptor knock-in mice and human Langerin-diphtheria toxin A transgenic mice, we prepared mice deficient in LCs. We also prepared mice deficient in TSLP receptors in LCs by using TSLP receptor-deficient mice with bone marrow chimeric technique. We applied these mice to an ovalbumin (OVA)-induced epicutaneous sensitization model. RESULTS Upon the epicutaneous application of OVA, conditional LC depletion attenuated the development of clinical manifestations as well as serum OVA-specific IgE increase, OVA-specific T-cell proliferation, and IL-4 mRNA expression in the draining lymph nodes. Consistently, even in the steady state, permanent LC depletion resulted in decreased serum IgE levels, suggesting that LCs mediate the T(H)2 local environment. In addition, mice deficient in TSLP receptors on LCs abrogated the induction of OVA-specific IgE levels upon epicutaneous OVA sensitization. CONCLUSION LCs initiate epicutaneous sensitization with protein antigens and induce T(H)2-type immune responses via TSLP signaling.

Abstract
Sulfatide-reactive type II NKT cells, the so-called non-invariant NKT (non-iNKT) cells, have been shown to counteract invariant NKT (iNKT) cell activity. However, the effects of sulfatide on activation of iNKT cells by α-galactocylceramide (αGC) in the context of CD1d have not been studied in detail. Therefore, we studied the blocking effect of sulfatide on αGC-induced iNKT cell activation by dendritic cells (DCs). Even in the absence of non-iNKT cells, sulfatide inhibited αGC-mediated iNKT cell activation by reducing αGC/CD1d complex formations in a dose-dependent manner. This was also confirmed in a cell-free setting using immobilized CD1d-Ig. Moreover, simultaneous injection of αGC with sulfatide decreased αGC/CD1d complex formations on DCs, accompanied by the reduced CD40L-up-regulation and IFN-γ production by iNKT cells and IL-12p70 production by DCs. However, sulfatide by itself did not interfere with the presentation of MHC class II-mediated antigen presentation to specific T cells. These results demonstrate that sulfatide competes with αGC to be loaded onto CD1d along the endocytic pathway in DCs, thereby inhibiting the iNKT cell response.

Abstract
SIGNR1, a mouse C-type lectin, binds various pathogens, including Candida albicans. In this study, we explore the impact of SIGNR1 in the recognition of C. albicans/zymosan and the subsequent tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α production using SIGNR1-transfected RAW264.7 (RAW-SIGNR1) cells and resident peritoneal macrophages. Compared with RAW-control cells, RAW-SIGNR1 cells dramatically enhanced TNF-α production upon the stimulation with heat-killed C. albicans and zymosan. Recognition of microbes via carbohydrate recognition domain (CRD) of SIGNR1 was crucial for the enhanced TNF-α production. Consistently, such an enhancement was significantly decreased by anti-SIGNR1 mAb. Laminarin, antagonistic Dectin-1 ligand, cooperated to further diminish the response, although no effect was observed by itself in RAW-SIGNR1 cells. However, it moderately reduced the response of RAW-control cells. Zymosan depleted of toll-like receptor (TLR) ligands decreased the response, even though it was recognized by SIGNR1 and Dectin-1. Moreover, antagonistic anti-TLR2 abolished the response, suggesting that TNF-α production largely relies on TLR2-mediated signaling. Resident peritoneal macrophages expressing SIGNR1 predominantly captured zymosan injected intra-peritoneally and produced TNF-α, which was dependent on TLR2 and partly inhibited by anti-SIGNR1 mAb. Finally, physical association of SIGNR1 with the extracellular portion of TLR2 through CRD was confirmed by immunoprecipitation using various deletion mutants. These results suggest that SIGNR1 recognizing microbes participates in the enhanced TNF-α production by Mϕ in cooperation with TLR2.
