Abstract
Abstract
A multilaboratory collaborative study was conducted to compare the detection of Salmonella by the Assurance GDS® for Salmonella method and the Reference culture methods. Six foods, representing a variety of low microbial and high microbial load foods were analyzed. Seventeen laboratories in the United States and Canada participated in this study. No statistical differences (P < 0.05) were observed between the Assurance GDS for Salmonella and the Reference culture methods for any inoculation level of any food type or naturally contaminated food, except for pasta, for which the Assurance GDS method had a higher number of confirmed test portions for Salmonella compared to the Reference method.

Abstract
Abstract
Because food allergens from tree nuts, including walnuts, are a frequent cause of adverse food reactions for allergic patients, the labeling of foods containing ingredients derived from tree nuts is required in numerous countries. According to Japanese regulations, the labeling of food products containing walnuts is recommended. To ensure proper labeling, a novel sandwich ELISA kit for the determination of walnut protein in processed foods (Walnut Protein [2S-Albumin] Kit; Morinaga Institute of Biological Science, Inc.; walnut kit) has been developed. We prepared seven types of incurred samples (model processed foods: biscuits, bread, sponge cake, orange juice, jelly, chicken meatballs, and rice gruel) containing 10 g walnut soluble protein/g of food for use in interlaboratory evaluations of the walnut kit. The walnut kit displayed sufficient reproducibility relative standard deviations (interlaboratory precision: 5.89.9 RSDR) and a high level of recovery (81119) for all the incurred samples. All the repeatability relative standard deviation (RSDr) values for the incurred samples that were examined were less than 6.0. The results of this interlaboratory evaluation suggested that the walnut kit could be used as a precise and reliable tool for determination of walnut protein in processed foods.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Macrophage phagocytosis constitutes an essential part of the host defence against microbes and the resolution of inflammation. Hyperglycaemia during sepsis is reported to reduce macrophage function, and thus, potentiate inflammatory deterioration. We investigated whether high-glucose concentrations augment lipopolysaccharide-induced reduction in macrophage phagocytosis via the endoplasmic stress-C/EBP homologous protein (CHOP) pathway using animal and laboratory investigations. METHODS Peritoneal macrophages of artificially ventilated male Wistar rats, divided into four groups based on target blood glucose concentrations achieved by glucose administration with or without lipopolysaccharide, were obtained after 24 h. Human macrophages were also cultured in normal or high glucose with or without lipopolysaccharide exposure for 72 h. Changes in the phagocytic activity, intranuclear CHOP expression, and intracellular Akt phosphorylation status of macrophages were evaluated. These changes were also evaluated in human macrophages after genetic knock-down of CHOP by specific siRNA transfection or resolvin D2 treatment. RESULTS Lipopolysaccharide impaired phagocytosis, increased intranuclear expression of CHOP, and inhibited Akt phosphorylation in both rat peritoneal and human macrophages. Hyperglycaemic glucose concentrations augmented these changes. Genetic knock-down of CHOP restored phagocytic ability and Akt phosphorylation in human macrophages. Furthermore, resolvin D2 co-incubation restored the inhibited phagocytosis and Akt phosphorylation along with the inhibition of intranuclear CHOP expression in human macrophages. CONCLUSIONS These findings imply that controlling endoplasmic reticulum stress might provide new strategies for restoring reduced macrophage phagocytosis in sepsis-induced hyperglycaemia.

Abstract
Apoptosis inhibitor of macrophages (AIM) is a protein which plays important roles in controlling the immune response and inflammation in human and mice. In dogs, AIM is reported to be expressed in cancerated macrophages and regulate the survival of these tumor cells. In this study, to elucidate the physiological expression pattern of AIM in dogs, systemic expression and distribution of AIM of dogs were investigated. Mature healthy Beagles were used. Various tissues, peripheral blood cells, and bone marrow cells of normal dogs were collected for in situ hybridization, real-time RT-PCR, and immunohistochemistry. AIM mRNA and protein were expressed in tissue macrophages of the spleen, liver, lungs, and lymph nodes, but not in the microglia of the cerebrum. Proximal tubules in the kidney also expressed AIM protein. Monocytes and B lymphocytes in circulating blood and a part of microvasculature endothelial cells showed AIM expression at both the mRNA and protein levels. In the bone marrow, early-stage monocyte progenitor-like cells expressed AIM mRNA and protein. These results clarified that AIM is expressed in more cell types than previously reported in human and mice. These data spread the possibility of AIM physiological functions and implies the relationship of AIM to the maturation of macrophage-strain cells in dogs and other species.

Abstract
We report a case of recurrent pancreatic cancer in the remnant pancreas after pancreatoduodenectomy(PD)that was successfully treated by surgical resection. A woman in her 70s who was treated for multiple lung metastases of breast cancer was referred to our hospital because of obstructive jaundice. A low-density area in the pancreas head(19mm in diameter) and dilatation of the main pancreatic duct were observed on abdominal CT. She was diagnosed with pancreatic head cancer and underwent PD. Twenty months after PD, abdominal CT revealed a tumor in the pancreas tail, and she started receiving chemotherapy containing gemcitabine(GEM)for the diagnosis of recurrent pancreatic cancer in the remnant pancreas. Twelve months after the induction of chemotherapy, we performed surgical resection of the tumor(total pancreatectomy). The pathological diagnosis was moderately differentiated adenocarcinoma, which was similar to the primary lesion, and the tumor was confirmed as recurrence of pancreatic cancer. Although she died of multiple lung metastases of breast cancer 62 months after the total pancreatectomy, the recurrence of pancreatic cancer was not observed without adjuvant therapy during that time.

Abstract
The study was done to determine whether minimal handling protocols for ovarian synchronization and ovarian superstimulation may be used to increase in vitro embryo production in bison. Ultrasound-guided cumulus-oocyte complex (COC) collection was done in a group of bison (n=23; random start) during the anovulatory season to synchronize new follicular wave emergence. The COC were classified morphologically (compact-good and -regular, expanded, denuded, degenerate) but not processed further. At the time of COC collection (Day 0), bison were assigned randomly to 3 groups and given 5mL of saline IM (non-superstimulated controls; n=11), 10 Armour units of pFSH (Antrin R10, Kyoritsu Seiyaku Corp., Tokyo, Japan) in 5mL of saline IM once per day from Day 0 to 2 (regular FSH; n=5), or 30 armour units of a sustained-release form of pFSH (Antrin R10Al, Kyoritsu Seiyaku Corp.) in 5mL of saline SC on Day 0 (long-acting FSH; n=7). On Day 4, a second COC collection was performed. Only compact COC were processed. The COC were matured in vitro for 25 to 28h at 38.8°C, fertilized (2×106 sperm mL−1) and co-incubated at 38.8°C in 5% CO2 for 18h. Presumptive zygotes were denuded and cultured at 38.8°C in 5% O2, 5% CO2 and 90% N2. Nominal data were compared by t-test and analysis of variance. Binomial data were compared among groups by chi-squared. There was no difference between the first (random) COC collection (n=23) and second collection (n=11 non-superstimulated controls) in the total number of follicles detected, but the distribution among size categories (3-4, 4-8, and >8mm) differed, i.e. fewer in the 3 to 4mm category at the time of the second COC collection (12.2±1.0v. 8.1±1.4; P<0.05). In the nonstimulated control group, there were no differences between the first and second COC collections in the number of follicles aspirated (12.7±1.0v. 10.4±1.5), number of COC collected (7.7±0.9v. 5.3±1.3), or in the categorical distribution of COC. At the second COC collection, the number of follicles in the >8mm category was greater in the regular FSH group than in the control or long-acting FSH groups (2.8±0.5v. 1.1±0.3, and 1.9±0.4, respectively; P<0.05), but no differences were detected in the number of follicles aspirated, COC collected, or in the categorical distribution of COC. The cleavage rate (of total oocytes submitted to in vitro maturation), recorded 2 days after IVF, was higher in the control group than in either the regular FSH or long-acting FSH groups [25/35 (71.4%), 7/28 (25.0%), 8/35 (22.8%); P<0.0001]. The freezable embryo production rate, recorded 7 days after IVF, was greater in the control group than in the regular FSH or long-acting FSH groups [19/35 (54.3%), 5/28 (17.9%), 5/35 (14.3%); P<0.01]. In conclusion, minimal-handling interventions used in the present study to increase embryo production in bison were not effective, likely as a result of the timing, frequency, and duration of superstimulation. A random start resulted in greater COC collection than collection 4 days after ovarian synchronization, and embryo production rates were greater in non-superstimulated bison.

Abstract
An 82-year-old man receiving oral administration of warfarin for atrial fibrillation underwent distal gastrectomy for advanced gastric cancer. The postoperative diagnosis was pT3(SS)N2M1H1P0CY0, pStage Ⅳ,(HER2, score 3+)gastric cancer. He received chemotherapy for the treatment of multiple liver metastases, following which, he developed lymph node metastases. Grade 3 anemia was observed at 46 months after initiation of chemotherapy when he was treated with third-line irinotecan plus cisplatin. Abdominal CT showed that CR for liver metastases and SD for lymph node metastases were maintained. Esophagogastroduodenoscopy and colonoscopy showed no intraluminal bleeding. As the anemia progressed, blood transfusion was required repeatedly instead of withdrawal of chemotherapy and replacement therapy of iron and vitamin B12. Double- balloon endoscopy revealed hemorrhagic tumor at duodenal stump. We diagnosed tumor bleeding from metastatic lymph node around pancreatic head invading to duodenum. Palliative radiotherapy(40 Gy/20 Fr)for hemostasis was performed. Finally, hemostasis and tumor shrinkage were achieved.

Abstract
Here, we report a long-term survival case treated with docetaxel and S-1 combination therapy(DS therapy)for peritoneal dissemination of gastric cancer. A 58-year-old man was diagnosed with gastric cancer in 2006. Distal gastrectomy, D2 dissec- tion, and RY reconstruction were performed. The pathological diagnosis was gastric cancer, por2, pT3(SS), pN3a(8/27), pStage ⅢB. S -1 monotherapy was administered as an adjuvant chemotherapy for 1 year from 3 months after surgery. Five years after surgery, peritoneal dissemination and bladder recurrence caused rectal stenosis and hydronephrosis. We performed ileostomy and left nephrostomy. DS therapy was started 5 years and 2 months after the initial surgery. A complete clinical remission was observed 2 years and 10 months after starting DS therapy(23 courses). Multiple lymph node metastasis and bone metastasis were confirmed at 5 years and 5 months(57 courses). Even though irinotecan monotherapy was performed for five courses, the bone and lymph node metastasis increased at 5 years and 9 months after starting DS therapy, and the patient died at 69 years of age. DS therapy may be a useful option for peritoneal metastasis of gastric cancer.

Abstract
A man in his 70s was diagnosed with gastric cancer and underwent total gastrectomy with D2 lymphadenectomy. The final diagnosis was T3(SS)N2M0, Stage ⅢA. After surgery, S-1 was administered for 1 year. One year and 6 months after surgery, abdominal computed tomography showed a single liver tumor(S4: 30mm). Based on overexpression of the human epidermal growth factor receptor 2(HER2)protein in the primary tumor, we selected capecitabine plus cisplatin plus trastuzumab as the combination chemotherapy. After the second course, the therapeutic response was stable. S4 partial liver resection was performed. The liver tumor was histologically evaluated as Grade Ⅰb metastatic gastric adenocarcinoma. After surgery, capecitabine plus trastuzumab was administered for 1 year. One year after resection of liver metastasis, the patient is alive without any relapse.

Abstract
Arterial compliance (AC) is an index of the elasticity of large arteries. Endothelial dysfunction has been reported to result in reduced arterial compliance, which represents increased arterial stiffness. A reduction in AC is elicited by high-intensity resistance training, however the mechanisms are obscure. Because a single bout of resistance exercise causes a transient increase in circulating plasma endothelin-1 in humans, some vasoconstrictors may play a role in the mechanisms. The present study aimed to investigate whether resistance training-induced decrease in AC is associated with changes in circulating vasoconstrictors levels in young men. Young sedentary men were assigned to control (n=5) or training (n=9) groups. The training group performed four-week high-intensity resistance training (weight training exercise; three sessions/week). We measured AC and plasma levels of endothelin-1, angiotensin II, and norepinephrine before and after intervention. Resistance training significantly decreased AC, whereas the changes in plasma levels of neither endothelin-1, nor angiotensin II, nor norepinephrine were significantly different between the control and the training groups. Moreover, we found no significant correlations between changes in circulating plasma levels (endothelin-1, angiotensin II, and norepinephrine) and in the AC. Despite of no alteration of the resting circulating plasma levels (endothelin-1, etc.), we cannot exclude a possibility that the tissue/local concentrations of vasoconstrictors (endothelin-1, etc.) around the vessels might be increased and also involved in a reduction of AC in the training group. Taken together, the present results suggest that circulating vasoconstrictors (endothelin-1, etc.) in plasma are not involved in a reduction in AC by the resistance training.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Previous studies have suggested that ID influences the depth of general anaesthesia (GA) and delays emergence from GA. In this retrospective cohort study, we investigated whether ID affects the time taken to emerge from GA. METHODS We selected dental patients who underwent GA at the Department of Dental Anaesthesiology, Okayama University Hospital, using predefined inclusion and exclusion criteria, before dividing the selected participants into ID and non-ID (control) groups. Relevant data were collected from electronic anaesthesia records. Emergence time, the time from the discontinuation of propofol and remifentanil to tracheal extubation, was recorded for each patient. We compared the data of the ID group and control group. The association between ID and the emergence time was tested for statistical significance. Multivariate linear regression analysis was used to control for confounders. RESULTS A total of 97 cases (control = 50, ID = 47) were included in the study. The emergence time was significantly longer in the ID group (ID group: 15.8 ± 6.6 min, control group: 10.8 ± 3.6 min). The ID group included more men and lower propofol and remifentanil infusion rates. The treatment time was longer, and the mean bispectral index was lower in the ID group. Sevoflurane inhalation was used only for anaesthesia induction in the ID group. In the multivariate linear regression analysis, ID was found to be significantly associated with a longer emergence time. CONCLUSION Our results suggest that ID is associated with a longer emergence time from GA.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In general, para-aortic lymph node (LN16) metastasis has been considered as a contraindication for pancreatic resection. However, some pancreatic cancer patients with LN16 metastasis have been reported to survive for longer than expected after pancreatectomy. The purpose of this study was to determine whether pancreatic cancer patients with LN16 metastasis might benefit from surgery. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed 201 consecutive patients with invasive pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma who underwent surgery at Osaka National Hospital between April 2003 and December 2012. These patients included 22 patients with LN16 metastasis who underwent an extended lymphadenectomy and 25 patients who underwent a palliative surgical biliary and gastric bypass. The clinicopathological data and outcomes were evaluated using univariate and multivariate analyses. RESULTS The overall survival of the patients with LN16 metastasis was poorer than that of the LN16-negative patients (P = 0.0014). An overall survival analysis of the LN16-positive patients stratified according to the preoperative CA19-9 level showed a significant difference between patients with a low preoperative CA19-9 level (≤360 U/mL) and those with a high preoperative CA19-9 level (>360 U/mL) (P = 0.0301). No significant difference in overall survival of patients was observed between those with LN16 positivity and those who underwent bypass surgery. However, the overall survival of the LN16-positive patients with a CA19-9 level ≤360 U/mL (n = 11) was significantly higher than that of those who underwent bypass surgery (P = 0.0452). CONCLUSION Surgical resection and extended lymphadenectomy remains an option for pancreatic cancer patients with LN16-positivity whose CA19-9 level is ≤360 U/mL.
