Abstract
AbstractPurposeSmoking rates in schizotypic individuals are shown to be elevated, as in patients with schizophrenia, although findings on the association of smoking with different symptomatology of schizotypy have been mixed. Moreover, possible moderating effects of schizotypy on the relationship between smoking and cognition have not been well documented.Subjects and methodsThe Schizotypal Personality Questionnaire (SPQ) and the full version of the Wechsler Memory Scale-Revised (WMS-R) were administered to 501 healthy adults. Subjects were divided into smokers (n = 85) and non-smokers (n = 416) based on the presence/absence of current smoking.ResultsThe analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) on the three factor scores as well as the total score of the SPQ, controlling for age and gender, revealed that cognitive-perceptual factor was significantly associated with an increased rate of smoking (P = 0.048). The ANCOVA on the WMS-R indices, with smoking group as a fixed factor and age, gender and total SPQ score as covariates, revealed that the schizotypy-by-smoking interaction was significant for attention/working memory (P = 0.029).Discussion and conclusionPositive schizotypy may be associated with more smoking. Schizotypy and smoking could interact with each other to negatively affect attention/working memory.

Abstract
Setting Four tuberculosis (TB) diagnostic health facilities of the Chongwe District, Zambia. Objective To determine the frequency of bacteriologically confirmed TB patients lost to follow-up (LTFU) before treatment from January to December 2017. Design This is a retrospective cohort study involving the review of TB registers. Information on presumptive TB patients who tested positive either by smear microscopy or Xpert® MTB/RIF assay was extracted from the laboratory TB registers of the TB diagnostic facilities and cross-matched with the TB treatment registers of TB treatment facilities. Results Two hundred and seventeen bacteriologically confirmed TB patients were found in the laboratory TB registers. Of these, 145 (67%) were males and seven (3%) were children; 177 (81%) patients were diagnosed using Xpert, while the remaining 40 (19%) were diagnosed using sputum smear microscopy. A total of 71 (33%) were not linked to treatment. Those diagnosed using smear microscopy were 2.5 times (95% CI 1.1-5.3) more likely to be LTFU before treatment than those diagnosed using Xpert. Conclusion About one third of TB patients who were not linked to treatment could potentially extend the duration of bacilli transmission in their communities. National TB control programmes should consider including LTFU patients before treatment in routine monitoring and evaluation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Japan Clinical Oncology Group (JCOG) 0212 (ClinicalTrials.gov NCT00190541) was a non-inferiority phase III trial of patients with clinical stage II-III rectal cancer without lateral pelvic lymph node enlargement. The trial compared mesorectal excision (ME) with ME and lateral lymph node dissection (LLND), with a primary endpoint of recurrence-free survival (RFS). The planned primary analysis at 5 years failed to confirm the non-inferiority of ME alone compared with ME and LLND. The present study aimed to compare ME alone and ME with LLND using long-term follow-up data from JCOG0212. METHODS Patients with clinical stage II-III rectal cancer below the peritoneal reflection and no lateral pelvic lymph node enlargement were included in this study. After surgeons confirmed R0 resection by ME, patients were randomized to receive ME alone or ME with LLND. The primary endpoint was RFS. RESULTS A total of 701 patients from 33 institutions were assigned to ME with LLND (351) or ME alone (350) between June 2003 and August 2010. The 7-year RFS rate was 71.1 per cent for ME with LLND and 70·7 per cent for ME alone (hazard ratio (HR) 1·09, 95 per cent c.i. 0·84 to 1·42; non-inferiority P = 0·064). Subgroup analysis showed improved RFS among patients with clinical stage III disease who underwent ME with LLND compared with ME alone (HR 1·49, 1·02 to 2·17). CONCLUSION Long-term follow-up data did not support the non-inferiority of ME alone compared with ME and LLND. ME with LLND is recommended for patients with clinical stage III disease, whereas LLND could be omitted in those with clinical stage II tumours.

Abstract
In the present work, taste masked particles of acetaminophen (AAP), a highly soluble bitter tasting drug, were developed and ODT containing the taste masked particles were prepared. Taste masked particles of AAP were prepared using different amounts of tetraglycerol polyricinoleate (TGPR) and Eudragit ®E100. Although the drug content ratio and drug recovery decreased with increasing TGPR, drug release from AAP-CR100 particles containing a large amount of TGPR was mostly suppressed for 2 min. Hence, AAP-CR100 was incorporated into ODT as taste masked particles for AAP. Three major disintegrants were used for ODT, and it was confirmed that the tensile strength of all formulations showed applicable hardness for handling. The AAP-CR100-CP(40) formulation containing crospovidone showed the shortest disintegration time and the drug release from AAP-CR100-CP(40) into pH 6.8 test solution was suppressed compared with commercial AAP tablets. Because the drug release from AAP-CR100-CP(40) into the pH 1.2 test solution was rapid, it was suggested that drug release from AAP-CR100-CP(40) is suppressed in the oral cavity, and the drug is released promptly in the stomach. Thus AAP-CR100-CP(40) may be useful as an ODT in which the dissolution of AAP in the oral cavity is suppressed.

Abstract
SETTING: Over the period 1992 to 2006, Japan had tuberculosis (TB) notification rates of about 40 to 20 per 100 000 population. In 1999, the Minister of Health and Welfare of Japan declared a public health emergency based on the resurgence of TB.OBJECTIVE: To
compare the trends of TB notification rates before and after the declaration.DESIGN: This is an ecological study on the trends of TB notification rates. The trends per year in TB notification rates were compared before (1992–1997) and after (2001–2006) the emergency
declaration.RESULTS: The trends in the notification rates for all types of TB and sputum smear-positive TB (SSP-TB) decreased from −3.3% (95% confidence interval [CI] −4.6 to −1.9) and 0.94% (95%CI −0.33 to 2.2), respectively, per year before the declaration
to −5.8% (95%CI −6.3 to −5.3) and −3.3% (95%CI −2.4 to −4.2), respectively, per year after the declaration with statistical significance. Trends in notification rates for both all types of TB and SSP-TB statistically significantly decreased after the declaration
in Fukuoka, Osaka and Saitama Prefectures.CONCLUSION: The declaration of TB as a public health emergency in Japan in 1999 had a positive impact on TB control in Japan and thus TB epidemiology.

Abstract
Background: Japan had a tuberculosis (TB) notification rate of 13.9 per 100 000 population in 2016. Objectives: To characterise TB-related enquiries received by the Research Institute of Tuberculosis, Tokyo, Japan, between January 2014 and December 2016. Design: A descriptive study of the time, place and other attributes of the enquiries. Results: A total of 1864 enquiries were listed for analysis. On average, 51.8 enquiries (range 30-77) were received per month. The enquiry rates were highest for Yamanashi (5.87/100 000) and Kochi (5.77) Prefectures, and lowest in Miyazaki (0.45) and Saga (0.48) Prefectures. Enquirers belonged mostly to local governments (n = 1212, 65%) and health care facilities (n = 386, 21%), and included medical doctors (n = 412, 22%), nurses (n = 926, 50%) and the general public (n = 150, 8.0%). Most enquiries concerned TB diagnosis and treatment (n = 475, 25%), including diagnosis in general (n = 38, 2.0%), laboratory diagnosis (n = 83, 4.5%), anti-tuberculosis treatment in general (n = 62, 3.3%) and the management of comorbidities or adverse events (n = 60, 3.2%), followed by contact investigations (n = 371, 20%). Conclusions: As most enquiries concerned the diagnosis and treatment of TB, the Ministry of Health of Japan should maintain a number of specialised TB institutions with TB clinicians to provide technical assistance.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The optimal level for inferior mesenteric artery ligation during anterior resection for rectal cancer is controversial. The aim of this randomized trial was to clarify whether the inferior mesenteric artery should be tied at the origin (high tie) or distal to the left colic artery (low tie). METHODS Patients were allocated randomly to undergo either high- or low-tie ligation and were stratified by surgical approach (open or laparoscopic). The primary outcome was the incidence of anastomotic leakage. Secondary outcomes were duration of surgery, blood loss and 5-year overall survival. RESULTS Some 331 patients entered the trial between June 2006 and September 2012. The trial was stopped prematurely as recruitment was slow. Seven patients were excluded after randomization but before operation because of procedural changes. High tie and low tie were performed in 164 and 160 patients respectively. The incidence of anastomotic leakage was not significantly different (17·7 versus 16·3 per cent respectively; P = 0·731). The incidence of severe complications requiring intervention was 2·4 versus 5·0 per cent for high and low tie respectively (P = 0·222). In multivariable analysis, risk factors for anastomotic leakage included male sex (odds ratio 4·36, 95 per cent c.i. 1·56 to 12·18) and distance of the tumour from the anal verge (odds ratio 0·99, 0·98 to 1·00). At 5 years there were no significant differences in overall (87·2 versus 89·4 per cent respectively; P = 0·386) and disease-free (76·3 versus 77·6 per cent; P = 0·765) survival. CONCLUSION The level of ligation of the inferior mesenteric artery does not significantly influence the rate of anastomotic leakage. Registration number: NCT01861678 ( https://clinicaltrials.gov).

Abstract
BACKGROUND Among infectious diseases, influenza is the most common cause of infection in Japan and worldwide. We aimed to evaluate the effect of influenza vaccination in kidney transplantation (KTx) recipients. METHODS We retrospectively evaluated the records of 98 participants who underwent KTx at our institution between March 2009 and May 2016. All patients received tacrolimus or cyclosporine, mycophenolate mofetil, and methylprednisolone for maintenance immunosuppression after KTx. In accordance with the criteria of our institution, everolimus was administered for the maintenance of immunosuppression after KTx. We compared the rate of influenza infection during the 2016-2017 season (8 months, from October 2016-May 2017) between KTx patients treated with 1 or 2 doses of influenza vaccine (treatment group, n = 71) and KTx patients who did not receive a vaccine (nontreatment group, n = 27). RESULTS Among patient characteristics, only the prevalence of diabetes mellitus differed significantly between the groups (treatment group: 9.9%, 7 of 71 patients; nontreatment group: 29.6%, 8 of 21 patients; P = .02). Influenza infection occurred at similar rates in the 2 groups (treatment group, 5.63% 4 of 71 patients; nontreatment group: 3.70%, 1 of 27 patients; P = .70). CONCLUSIONS Among KTx patients managed in our institution, treatment with 1 or 2 doses of influenza vaccine did not reduce the rate of influenza infection in the 2016-2017 season, suggesting that influenza vaccination may currently be ineffective in KTx patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES In Japan, approximately 7000 smear-positive tuberculosis (TB) cases were reported in 2014. According to the law, such patients must be isolated in a TB ward until they become at least sputum smear-negative. However, there are some recalcitrant patients who are difficult to isolate because of problematic behaviors. This study was conducted to characterize recalcitrant TB patients and determine why they left the hospitals and how they were followed up after they left. STUDY DESIGN Cross-sectional study. METHODS We sent a self-administered questionnaire to the hospitals in Japan with over 11 TB isolation beds, asking about recalcitrant TB inpatients from April 2013 through March 2014, in terms of demographic information, the reasons why they left, and how they were followed up. RESULTS A total of 38 recalcitrant patients were reported, of whom 15 (39.5%) self-discharged, eight (21.0%) were discharged, and 15 (39.5%) were transferred. Thirty-three (86.8%) were males. The main reason (52.6%) why the patients were considered recalcitrant was related to psychiatric problems. However, nine (23.6%) patients physically assaulted or insulted the staff members. Thirty-six (94.7%) were able to continue anti-TB treatment after they left the original hospital. CONCLUSION Although the number of recalcitrant TB patients who were abusive was small, there should be TB facilities with law enforcement officials readily available to enforce isolation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to evaluate the real-world safety and effectiveness of golimumab (GLM) in Japanese patients with rheumatoid arthritis. METHODS A postmarketing surveillance of 5154 patients was conducted with a follow-up duration of at least 24 weeks. Patients were divided into four groups based on the initial treatment: 50 mg or 100 mg of GLM with concomitant use of methotrexate (MTX) and 50 mg or 100 mg of GLM monotherapy. Patient characteristics at baseline, safety and effectiveness were assessed for each group. RESULTS Over 70% of patients received 50 mg of GLM with concomitant MTX, and approximately, 20% received monotherapy. The incidence rate of adverse events was 45.40 per 100 patient-years. The incidence of adverse events including serious adverse events was comparable across all groups. The proportion of patients showing remission or low disease activity increased from 13.69% to 46.21% at the final evaluation, and no differences were observed in the percentage of remission across the four groups. Concomitant MTX use was associated with higher probability of continuing therapy. CONCLUSIONS GLM showed effectiveness in Japanese rheumatoid arthritis patients with an acceptable safety profile.
