Abstract
The use of amplitude-integrated electroencephalography (aEEG) to assess brain function and detect seizures has been increasing worldwide. Results from previous studies have demonstrated that seizure patterns can be recognized as transient rises on aEEG traces. We report here a case of an infant with neonatal seizures that showed paradoxical transient drops on aEEG traces. The ictal EEG showed initial low-amplitude fast rhythmic activity followed by epileptic recruiting rhythms and high-voltage slow waves. Therefore, downward patterns on aEEG traces should be recognized as suspected seizure patterns.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Most patients cannot remember their entire medication regimen and occasionally forget to take their medication. OBJECTIVES The objective of the study was to design, develop, and demonstrate the feasibility of a new type of medication self-management system using smartphones with real-time medication monitoring. METHODS We designed and developed a smartphone-based medication self-management system (SMSS) based on interviews of 116 patients. The system offered patients two main functions by means of smartphones: (1) storage and provision of an accurate, portable medication history and medication-taking records of patients; and (2) provision of a reminder to take medication only when the patient has forgotten to take his/her medication. These functions were realized by two data input methods: (a) reading of prescription data represented in two-dimensional barcodes using the smartphone camera and getting the photographic images of the pills; and (b) real-time medication monitoring by novel user-friendly wireless pillboxes. RESULTS Interviews suggested that a pocket-sized pillbox was demanded to support patient's medication-taking outside the home and pillboxes for home use should be adaptable to the different means of pillbox storage. In accordance with the result, we designed and developed SMSS. Ten patients participated in the feasibility study. In 17 out of 47 cases (36.2%), patients took their medication upon being presented with reminders by the system. Correct medication-taking occurrence was improved using this system. CONCLUSIONS The SMSS is acceptable to patients and has the advantage of supporting ubiquitous medication self-management using a smartphone. We believe that the proposed system is feasible and provides an innovative solution to encourage medication self-management.

Abstract
Programming an anti-flu strategy: A new and potent neuraminidase inhibitor that maintains long-term systemic exposure of an antibody and the therapeutic activity of the neuraminadase inhibitor zanamivir has been created. This strategy could provide a promising new class of influenza A drugs for therapy and prophylaxis, and validates enzyme inhibitors as programming agents in synthetic immunology.

Abstract
The optimal dose of cisplatin (CDDP) for combination chemotherapy for the treatment of inoperable, advanced gastric cancer has yet to be established. We therefore performed a randomized study to compare the therapeutic usefulness of two dose levels of cisplatin. 5'-deoxy-5-fluorouridine (5'-DFUR 1,400 mg/m(2)/d) was given orally on days 1 to 4 and 15 to 18. Mitomycin C (MMC, 5.75 mg/m(2)/d) was injected intravenously on day 5. In addition, 80 mg/m2/d of CDDP (regimen A) or 60 mg/m(2)/d of CDDP (regimen B) was given by 2-h intravenous drip infusion on day 5. This treatment cycle was repeated every four weeks. Fifty-six patients were enrolled. Clinical response was evaluated in 32 patients (regimen A, 16 patients; regimen B? 16 patients) with measurable lesions. The response rate was significantly higher with regimen A (9 PR/16, 56.3%) than with regimen B (3 PR/16, 18.9%) (p=0.028, chi(2) test). Median survival was slightly but not significantly longer with regimen A (7.4 months) than with regimen B (6.3 months). Drug toxicity included myelosuppression and gastrointestinal symptoms, but there were no serious adverse reactions or differences in safety between the treatment regimens. Regimen A was associated with a high response rate and low toxicity. The optimal dose of CDDP in combination with 5'-DFUR and MMC for the treatment of advanced gastric cancer is regarded to be 80 mg/m(2).

Abstract
A series of fused-pyrimidine derivatives have been discovered as potent and orally active GPR119 agonists. A combination of the fused-pyrimidine structure and 4-chloro-2,5-difluorophenyl group provided the 5,7-dihydrothieno[3,4-d]pyrimidine 6,6-dioxide derivative 14a as a highly potent GPR119 agonist. Further optimization of the amino group at the 4-position in the pyrimidine ring led to the identification of 2-{1-[2-(4-chloro-2,5-difluorophenyl)-6,6-dioxido-5,7-dihydrothieno[3,4-d]pyrimidin-4-yl]piperidin-4-yl}acetamide (16b) as an advanced analog. Compound 16b was found to have extremely potent agonistic activity and improved glucose tolerance at 0.1 mg/kg po in mice. We consider compound 16b and its analogs to have clear utility in exploring the practicality of GPR119 agonists as potential therapeutic agents for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aimed to discriminate between enamel and composite resins by differences in Hounsfield units shown on 16 section multidetector CT (MDCT) images taken of unidentified bodies. METHODS First, we determined the Hounsfield units of composite resins in 15 extracted human teeth. We then filled a single cavity prepared in each of the teeth with one of five different types of composite resins, and scanned the teeth using our routine post-mortem CT protocol for the head and neck. Obtained data were transferred to a radiological workstation and reconstructed. Furthermore, post-mortem CT images of the head of three unidentified bodies were reconstructed in the same manner. RESULTS Four types of composite resins containing radio-opaque fillers showed a constant value of 4000 HU, and one radiolucent composite resin showed values in the range of 660-800 HU in the extracted teeth. Pixels at 4000 HU indicated that the composite resins were selected and visualized as three-dimensional colour images. Composite resins could be visualized on reconstructed images of the three unidentified bodies, and the sites visualized matched those noted on the forensic dental charts. CONCLUSIONS Discriminating enamel and composite resins containing radio-opaque materials was difficult because of their similar Hounsfield unit values. However, we did succeed in visualizing the composite resins despite limitations of the CT scale. CT reconstructed images can contribute to dental identification, particularly in cases where it is difficult to detect composite resins on external investigation, and these images can be prepared during routine dental identification work.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Eight human catalytic phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) isoforms exist which are subdivided into three classes. While class I isoforms have been well-studied in cancer, little is known about the functions of class II PI3Ks. MATERIALS AND METHODS The expression pattern and functions of the class II PI3KC2β isoform were investigated in a panel of tumour samples and cell lines. RESULTS Overexpression of PI3KC2β was found in subsets of tumours and cell lines from acute myeloid leukemia (AML), glioblastoma multiforme (GBM), medulloblastoma (MB), neuroblastoma (NB), and small cell lung cancer (SCLC). Specific pharmacological inhibitors of PI3KC2β or RNA interference impaired proliferation of a panel of human cancer cell lines and primary cultures. Inhibition of PI3KC2β also induced apoptosis and sensitised the cancer cells to chemotherapeutic agents. CONCLUSION Together, these data show that PI3KC2β contributes to proliferation and survival in AML, brain tumours and neuroendocrine tumours, and may represent a novel target in these malignancies.

Abstract
This study compared digital measurement of aneurysm volume by 3D rotational angiography (3D-RA) with an approximation technique using three diameters of an aneurysm to re-interpret previously reported optimal packing densities (volume embolization ratio, VER) in coil embolization of intracranial aneurysms. Estimation of the volume of saccular aneurysms is important for calculation of the VER, which is in turn reported to be useful for prediction of coil compaction. The conventional formula for the volume estimation is V=4/3 π(A/2) (B/2) (C/2), where A, B, and C are the aneurysmal height, length, and width measured on 3D-RA image respectively. Using 3D rotational angiography data from 74 aneurysms, the approximated volume generated using the conventional formula was directly compared with the digitally measured volume. The digitally measured volume varied from 0.003 ml to 7.935 ml, and the dome-to-neck ratio (D/N) from 0.79 up to 4.62. We found that the conventional formula almost systematically underestimated the volume by up to 50 %, particularly when the neck was large relative to the dome (D/N<2). On average, digitally measured volume was 1.26~1.29 times larger than the approximated volume obtained using the conventional formula.Conventional 2D angiography based aneurysm volume calculation tends to underestimate an aneurysm volume, so the so-called VER (volume embolization ratio) could be overestimated.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We prospectively evaluated the rate of postnatal cytomegalovirus (CMV) transmission through breast milk in extremely premature infants to address the impact of CMV infection on preterm infants during lactation. STUDY DESIGN A total of 25 mothers and 27 infants (two sets of twins) with birth weights <1000 g and/or gestational ages <28 weeks were enrolled in the study. They were mostly fed frozen-thawed breast milk. Breast milk, serum and urine samples were collected every 2 weeks and screened for CMV infection using the real-time polymerase chain reaction. RESULT All of the 21 CMV-seropositive mothers had detectable CMV DNA in their breast milk, with a peak at 4 to 6 weeks postpartum. CMV infection was confirmed in only one infant (4.3%) who displayed almost no clinical symptoms. CONCLUSION At our institutes, we mainly use frozen-thawed breast milk. We found low CMV transmission rates even in extremely premature infants, and the CMV-positive infant did not develop serious symptoms.

Abstract
The objectives of the study were to quantitatively assess whole-brain CT Perfusion (CTP) data using an automatic region of interest (ROI) analysis program in order to distinguish between the degree of ischemia in the ischemic core and that in the penumbra and to assess the relationship between expansion of the area of infarction. The subjects were 20 patients with acute cerebral infarction. Whole-brain CTP was performed for all subjects using a 320-row area detector CT scanner. The penumbra* is defined as the region in which the CBV value is 2 mL/100 g or more and the ischemic core* is defined as the region in which the CBV value is less than 2 mL/100 g. The quantitative values of CTP parameters were automatically measured using the automatic ROIs analysis program. The Mann-Whitney U test was applied to differentiate between the ischemic core* and the penumbra*. The reduction in perfusion pressure in the penumbra* was smaller in the group with expansion of the area of infarction than in the group without expansion of the area of infarction. The difference in the median values between the penumbra* and the ischemic core* was larger in the group with expansion of the area of infarction than the group without expansion of the area of infarction. It is considered that the quantitative analysis method using whole-brain CTP may be useful for more accurately distinguishing between the ischemic core and the penumbra and for evaluating the risk of expansion of the ischemic core into the penumbra.
