Abstract
Epithelial-myoepithelial carcinoma (EMC) is a rare salivary gland tumor that is histologically characterized by biphasic tubular structures composed of inner ductal and outer clear myoepithelial cells, which is especially uncommon in the minor salivary glands (MSG). Because of its histologic variety, complexity, and heterogeneity, it is sometimes challenging to make the accurate diagnosis. Here, we report a literature review of EMC of the MSGs with our experience of two cases. Incisional biopsy was suggestive of pleomorphic adenoma in Case 1 and pleomorphic adenoma or a low-grade salivary gland carcinoma in Case 2. Both cases were performed intraoral tumor resection, and they have good postoperative courses and are alive with no evidence of local recurrence or metastasis at 31 and 16 months, respectively. Considering that the anatomy, structure, and size of salivary glands are quite different from MSGs, it might be difficult to predict EMCs of the MSG similarly to EMCs of the major salivary glands. This comprehensive review also reports the features of EMC of the MSG cases and the trends of diagnosis and discusses treatment strategy.

Abstract
ABSTRACT The aim of this study is to report the differences in clinicopathological features of oral tongue squamous cell carcinoma (OTSCC) and survival between adolescent and young adult (AYA) patients and elderly patients and to find the prognosticators. The medical records of 101 AYA patients and 175 control patients with OTSCC who underwent surgery were reviewed. Variables related to prognosis and their clinicopathological associations were analyzed. The 5-year overall survival (5y-OS) rates of AYA and control patients with stage I and II OTSCC were 94.4% and 89.6% (P = .353), respectively, and their 5-year disease-free survival (5y-DFS) rates were 82.0% and 76.6%, respectively (P = .476). The 5y-OS rates of patients with stages III and IV OTSCC were 83.3% and 66.7% (P = .333), respectively, and their 5y-DFS rates were 75.0% and 57.1% (P = .335), respectively. Logistic regression analysis revealed that there was no significant clinicopathological difference in AYA and control group. Furthermore, there was no significant difference in 5y-OS rates between patients who underwent elective neck dissection (END) and those who underwent therapeutic neck dissection (TND) in both group (P = 0.717 and 0.688). Overall, the present study revealed the clinicopathological features and prognosis of OTSCC were similar in AYA patients and elderly patients. Moreover, as there was no significant difference in OS between patients who underwent END and those who underwent TND in AYA and control groups, our results suggest that the indication for END in AYA patients with clinical N0 OTSCC is similar to that for elderly patients.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Mitral L wave, prominent mid-diastolic filling wave in echocardiographic examinations, is associated with severe left ventricular diastolic dysfunction, and that has been reported to predict recurrent atrial fibrillation (AF) after cardioversion. However, association between mitral L wave and the outcome of AF after radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFCA) has not been established.
Objective
The aim of this study is to evaluate the predictive value of mitral L wave on AF recurrence after RFCA.
Methods
250 patients including 164 paroxysmal AF (65.6%) and 86 non-paroxysmal AF (34.4%) who received RFCA in single center from January 2015 to December 2016 were enrolled consecutively. Echocardiographic examinations before RFCA were recorded, and the mitral L wave was defined as a distinct mid-diastolic flow velocity with a peak velocity ≥20 cm/s following the E wave. Systematic follow-up was conducted after RFCA. Univariate and multivariate analyses were carried out to determine the factors predicting late recurrence of AF (LRAF) which means AF recurrence after 3 months. Enrolled patients were divided into groups with the L wave (L-group; n=57) or without the L wave (NL-group; n=193) based on the findings of echocardiographic examinations.
Results
During a follow-up of 35.0±17.6 months, the ratio of LRAF in the L-group was significantly higher than that in the NL-group (32 (56.1%) vs. 41 (21.2%), Hazard ratio [HR]: 3.55, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 2.33 - 5.42, p<0.001). Among the clinical factors, presence of mitral L wave, BNP value, non-paroxysmal AF and moderate-severe mitral regurgitation were related to LRAF. A multivariate analysis using a Cox proportional hazard model found that presence of mitral L wave (HR: 2.67, 95% CI: 1.30 - 5.48, p=0.007) was significantly associated with LRAF.
Conclusion
This study revealed that mitral L wave predicts late recurrence of AF after RFCA.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Adenoid cystic carcinoma (AdCC) is a rare, indolent salivary gland tumor that is reported to be driven by fusion genes. However, MYB/MYBL1-NFIB fusions have been detected in <60% of all AdCC cases and the oncogenic driver mutations in approximately 40% of AdCC remain unknown. Our aim was to identify novel gene fusions in AdCC. STUDY DESIGN We investigated 20 AdCC cases using a targeted RNA sequencing panel to identify gene fusions and performed quantitative real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction to assess MYB, MYBL1, and NFIB expression levels. RESULTS A total of 36 fusion transcripts in 15 cases were detected and validated by Sanger sequencing. The MYB-NFIB and MYBL1-NFIB fusion genes were detected in 9 and 3 cases, respectively, in a mutually exclusive manner. Furthermore, novel gene fusions, namely, NFIB-EPB41L2, MAP7-NFIB, NFIB-MCMDC2, MYBL1-C8orf34, C8orf34-NFIB, and NFIB-CASC20, were identified. Among them, NFIB-EPB41L2 and NFIB-MCMDC2 are thought to activate MYB and MYBL1 expression, respectively, through the insertion of a genomic segment in proximity to MYB and MYBL1 genes, respectively. CONCLUSION Six novel gene fusions other than MYB/MYBL1-NFIB were identified. The detection of novel fusion genes and investigation of the molecular mechanism will contribute to the development of novel molecular targeted therapies for this disease.

Comparison of Clinicopathological Characteristics Between the Anterior and Posterior Type of Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Floor of the Mouth: The Anterior Type Is a Risk Factor for Multiple Primary Cancer. Front Oncol 2021; 11:682428. [PMID: 34268115 PMCID: PMC8276066 DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2021.682428] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/18/2021] [Accepted: 06/07/2021] [Indexed: 11/29/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Floor of the mouth (FOM) squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) accounts for approximately 10% of all oral SCCs. FOM SCC can be classified into the anterior and posterior types according to their site of origin, but few studies have compared these types. This study sought to clarify differences in clinicopathological characteristics between these two types. Methods A total of 1,220 patients with oral SCC were treated at our department from January 2001 to December 2015. Among these patients, 62 had FOM SCC. The FOM SCCs were classified into two groups: the anterior type and the posterior type. The anterior and posterior types were defined by the boundary connecting the spaces between the canine and the first premolar bilaterally. We retrospectively compared the sex, age, smoking and drinking history, clinical stage, treatment, histopathological diagnosis, multiple primary cancers, and outcomes of the two groups. Results Among the 62 patients, 32 had the anterior type, while 30 had the posterior type. The anterior type was found more significantly in men (p = 0.01) and individuals with a smoking history than the posterior type (p = 0.04). pN2–3 cervical lymph node metastasis was significantly more common in the anterior type than in the posterior type (p = 0.01). The median depth of invasion in the anterior type was 4 mm. Multivariate analysis showed that the anterior type was an independent risk factor for multiple primary cancer development in FOM SCC (p = 0.02). The cumulative 10-year disease-specific survival rates of the anterior and posterior types were 92.8 and 95.0%, respectively, while the overall survival rates were 65.4 and 95.0%, respectively. In the anterior type FOM SCC, a lower overall survival rate was associated with multiple primary cancers and smoking-related diseases. Conclusion Smoking cessation and adequate systemic screening for multiple primary cancers are needed to improve the prognosis of FOM SCC, particularly the anterior type.

DNAJA1 promotes cancer metastasis through interaction with mutant p53. Oncogene 2021; 40:5013-5025.

Abstract
Accumulation of mutant p53 (mutp53) is crucial for its oncogenic gain of function activity. DNAJA1, a member of J-domain containing proteins or heat shock protein 40, is shown to prevent unfolded mutp53 from proteasomal degradation. However, the biological function of DNAJA1 remains largely unknown. Here we show that DNAJA1 promotes tumor metastasis by accumulating unfolded mutp53. Levels of DNAJA1 in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) tissues were higher than those in normal tissues. Knockdown of DNAJA1 in HNSCC cell lines carrying unfolded mutp53 significantly decreased the levels of mutp53, filopodia/lamellipodia formation, migratory potential, and active forms of CDC42/RAC1, which were not observed in HNSCC cells with DNA contact mutp53, wild-type p53, or p53 null. Such mutp53-dependent functions of DNAJA1 were supported by the observation that DNAJA1 selectively bound to unfolded mutp53. Moreover, DNAJA1 knockdown in HNSCC cells carrying unfolded mutp53 inhibited primary tumor growth and metastases to the lymph nodes and lungs. Our study suggests that DNAJA1 promotes HNSCC metastasis mainly in a manner dependent on mutp53 status, suggesting DNAJA1 as a potential therapeutic target for HNSCC harboring unfolded mutp53.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The study aimed to evaluate the clinical characteristics and outcomes of patients with metastatic tumors in the oral region. STUDY DESIGN We conducted a retrospective study of 14 patients (11 men and 3 women; median age, 70.5 years) with metastatic tumors in the oral region diagnosed between 2005 and 2018. RESULTS The primary tumors were located in the lung (n = 7), kidney (n = 3), renal pelvis (n = 1), thyroid (n = 1), stomach (n = 1), and bladder (n = 1). The most common histologic type of the tumor was adenocarcinoma (n = 6). The metastatic sites were the mandible (n = 7), tongue (n = 4), upper gingiva (n = 2), and maxilla (n = 1). In 6 patients, metastatic tumors were found in the oral region before the primary tumors were detected. The primary tumors were detected by positron emission tomography/computed tomography in 5 patients and by computed tomography alone in one patient. Seven patients received treatment for metastatic tumors in the oral region. The overall 1- and 5-year survival rates were 35.7% and 10.7%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS It is important to detect metastatic tumors in the oral region and primary tumors as early as possible. Radical or palliative treatment should be performed if possible, considering the condition of the primary tumor and its metastasis to other organs.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Cardiotocography is widely used to assess fetal well-being during labour. The positive predictive value of current clinical algorithms to identify hypoxia-ischaemia is poor. In experimental studies, fetal hypotension is the strongest predictor of hypoxic-ischaemic injury. Cohort studies suggest that deceleration area and deceleration capacity of the fetal heart rate trace correlate with fetal acidaemia, but it is not known whether they are indices of fetal arterial hypotension. DESIGN Prospective, controlled study. SETTING Laboratory. SAMPLE Near-term fetal sheep. METHODS One minute of complete umbilical cord occlusions (UCOs) every 5 minutes (1:5 min, n = 6) or every 2.5 minutes (1:2.5 min, n = 12) for 4 hours or until fetal mean arterial blood pressure fell <20 mmHg. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Deceleration area and capacity during the UCO series were related to evolving hypotension. RESULTS The 1:5 min group developed only mild metabolic acidaemia, without hypotension. By contrast, 10/12 fetuses in the 1:2.5-min group progressively developed severe metabolic acidaemia and hypotension, reaching 16.8 ± 0.9 mmHg after 71.2 ± 6.7 UCOs. Deceleration area and capacity remained unchanged throughout the UCO series in the 1:5-min group, but progressively increased in the 1:2.5-min group. The severity of hypotension was closely correlated with both deceleration area (P < 0.001, R2 = 0.66, n = 18) and capacity (P < 0.001, R2 = 0.67, n = 18). Deceleration area and capacity predicted development of hypotension at a median of 103 and 123 minutes before the final occlusion, respectively. CONCLUSIONS Both deceleration area and capacity were strongly associated with developing fetal hypotension, supporting their potential to improve identification of fetuses at risk of hypotension leading to hypoxic-ischaemic injury during labour. TWEETABLE ABSTRACT Deceleration area and capacity of fetal heart rate identify developing hypotension during labour-like hypoxia.

Abstract
Background: Burning mouth syndrome (BMS) is a common condition of predominant oral pain without evident cause, that maxillofacial surgeons and otolaryngologists often refer to psychiatrists as somatic symptom disorder. In very rare cases, its typical burning symptom mimics those of other diseases in which serious fatal comorbidities may be missed. We encountered three rare cases of oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) with the first symptom of burning tongue. Case Presentation: Case 1: A 68-year-old woman had burning pain on the left lingual margin for 8 years. Antidepressant treatment was not efficacious. Cytology and biopsy revealed OSCC. Case 2: A 70-year-old man had burning sensation and paralysis of the tongue for 6 months. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed a 37 × 23-mm mass under the floor of the mouth and enlargement of lymph nodes on both sides. Case 3: A 90-year-old man had burning sensation of the tongue for 1 year. MRI revealed a 12 × 12-mm mass on the mandible with bone absorption. Conclusion: This case series suggests that psychiatrists must always be careful in regarding BMS as somatic symptom disorder and be cautious of the possibility of OSCC, especially in elderly patients.

Abstract
Diagnostic utility of a homeobox transcription factor, engrailed homeobox 1 (En1) in the histopathology of salivary gland neoplasms was studied. The expression of En1 was immunohistochemically examined in 51 cases of adenoid cystic carcinoma (AdCC) and 143 cases of other salivary gland neoplasms. In all 51 AdCCs, En1 was expressed in 30-100% of tumor cells. In eight of nine polymorphous adenocarcinomas (PACs), En1 was expressed in 40-100% of tumor cells. Less than 5% of tumor cells expressed En1 in three of 12 epithelial-myoepithelial carcinomas, one of 17 basal cell adenomas (BCAs), and one of 34 pleomorphic adenomas (PAs). Among 55 other carcinoma cases, 1-30% of tumor cells expressed En1 in three salivary duct carcinomas (SDCs) ex PA. None of the myoepitheliomas and Warthin tumors expressed En1. When the cut-off value of the percentage of En1-expressing cells was set to 25%, all 51 AdCCs, eight of nine PACs and one SDC ex PA were En1-positive and the others were En1-negative. En1 is expressed consistently in AdCCs, frequently in PACs, but rarely in other salivary gland neoplasms. En1 is a possible diagnostic marker for AdCC and PAC in the histopathology of salivary gland neoplasms.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The raccoon (Procyon lotor) is an invasive, non-native species in Japan. Throughout the country, it causes significant agricultural damage and negatively affects native biodiversity. Most of the responsibility for raccoon management lies with local government, and there are still many challenges to be overcome. Although raccoon populations have not been eradicated, intensive control campaigns such as focus on the early stages of invasion have controlled raccoons in some regions. To improve the national management of raccoons, we conducted a survey on raccoon management systems in local government departments considered to solve the challenges recognized in many areas. During 2014 and 2015, we surveyed three different municipal departments about raccoon management measures. The semi-structured interview survey covered two topics: (1) the situation leading up to the current management system; (2) the current management system. RESULTS Our results describe the scope and methods used in raccoon management. The government staff managed raccoons using monitoring, employing a variety of methods, a range of budgets, and various role divisions. The management practices are similar in that they share a sense of taking precautions, collaborating with stakeholders, understanding that adequate methods must be used, and obtaining support from experts. CONCLUSIONS Our case studies reveal the challenges in raccoon management faced by local government officers in regions with active control. The management systems and methods that we surveyed seemed to be effective in solving problems in both developed and undeveloped areas.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
XAPASS is a real-world, prospective, single-arm, observational study conducted as a post-marketing surveillance mandated by the health authority in Japan. Nowadays, direct oral anticoagulant therapy using factor Xa or thrombin inhibitor has been the standard of care for patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) to prevent ischemic stroke. However, the clinical impact of reduced dosage (approved dose of 15 or 10 mg once daily in Japan is relatively reduced compared to global dosage) factor Xa inhibitor rivaroxaban in high-risk patients remains unclear.
Purpose
The present sub-analysis of XAPASS was carried out to assess long-term safety and effectiveness of reduced-dose rivaroxaban in high-risk NVAF patients for bleeding and thromboembolism.
Methods
All patients with NVAF who were newly started on rivaroxaban were eligible for surveillance. The principal safety outcome was a composite of major and non-major bleeding events, and the primary effectiveness outcome was a composite of ischaemic stroke, haemorrhagic stroke, non-central nervous system systemic embolism (non-CNS SE), and myocardial infarction (MI). In this present sub-analysis, high-risk patients were defined as those who had two of the following three risk factors: elderly (≥75 years old), low body weight (≤50 kg), and renal impairment (CrCl <50 mL/min).
Results
In total, 11,308 patients were enrolled between April 2012 and June 2014 from 1,419 hospitals, and overall data were analysed from 10,664 patients from whom data were collected. Among them, 3,694 patients matched the criteria for the high-risk patients defined in this sub-analysis, and 6,970 patients did not match the criteria (non-high-risk patients). The mean treatment duration was 791±673 days in the high-risk patients and 944±709 days in the non-high-risk patients. Mean patient age was 80.9±5.5 years and 69.0±9.0 years at baseline, respectively. Mean CHADS2 score was 2.8 and 1.8, and CHA2DS2-VASc score was 4.4 and 2.9, respectively. The rates of CHADS2 component comorbidities were lower in the non-high-risk patients except for diabetes mellitus. The incidence rates of any bleeding, major bleeding, and the primary effectiveness outcomes were 4.8, 1.6, and 2.1%/patient-year in the high-risk patients. The incidence rates of these clinical events in the non-high-risk patients were 3.3, 0.9, and 1.0%/patient-year, respectively.
Conclusions
Incidence rates of long-term bleeding and thromboembolism were higher in the high-risk patients than in the non-high-risk patients. However, the rates of these outcomes using the Japan-specific reduced dose were not so high. Furthermore, the balance between safety and effectiveness outcomes was within an acceptable range. The present study provides useful information for physicians to stratify high-risk patients using the reduced dose in daily clinical practice.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
The arrhythmic substrates of the myocardium such as depolarization and repolarization abnormalities are thought to reflect cardiac dysfunction prior to the morphologic left ventricular dysfunction. Activation time (AT), recovery time (RT) and T wave peek-end interval dispersion (Tpe-dispersion) are useful indicators of the arrhythmic substrate. We examined the appearance of depolarization and repolarization abnormalities in patients with cancer therapeutics-related cardiac dysfunction (CTRCD) using AT, RT and Tpe-dispersion.
Methods
We conducted a standardized case-control study of CTRCD with 40 patients who developed breast cancer and treated with trastuzumab (13 cases and 27 controls). We assessed the relation between electrocardiographic indexes, including AT, RT and corrected Tpe-dispersion, and CTRCD. QT intervals were measured by Fridericia method, and QT observer 3 software were used for the measurement of all electrocardiographic indexes.
Results
LVEF in case and control group were 45.7±8% and 69.2±6%, respectively. AT in aVR lead was significantly higher in case group compared with control (28.8±7ms vs 22.8±5ms, P=0.02). corrected Tpe-dispersion tended to be higher in case group than that of control group (43.2±19ms vs 31.9±10ms, P=0.06). QT dispersion and RT dispersion were not different between case and control group.
Conclusions
Our study demonstrated that AT in aVR may predict cardiac dysfunction in breast cancer patients with HER2-inhibitor related cardiac dysfunction. More detailed studies using other modalities which can detect depolarization and repolarization abnormalities, including ventricular late potentials and T wave alternans, are needed.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
The 2015 cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) guidelines have stressed that high-quality CPR improves survival from cardiac arrest (CA). In particular, the guidelines recommended that it is reasonable for rescuers to perform chest compressions at a rate of 100 to 120/min in adult CA patients. However, it is unknown whether the 2015 guidelines contributed to favorable neurological outcome in adult CA patients. The present study aimed to clarify the effects of the 2015 guidelines in adult CA patients, using the data of the All-Japan Utstein Registry, a prospective, nationwide, population-based registry of out-of-hospital CA (OHCA).
Methods
From the data of this registry between 2011 and 2016, we included adult witnessed OHCA patients due to cardiac etiology, who had non-shockable rhythm as an initial rhythm. We excluded patients who received prehospital care in 2015 because it was difficult to distinguish prehospital care based on either 2010 CPR guidelines or 2015 CPR guidelines. We also excluded patients who received bystander CPR by citizens because we cannot assess the quality of bystander CPR in this registry. Study patients were divided into five groups based on different years (figure). The endpoint was the favorable neurological outcome at 30 days after OHCA. Potential confounding factors based on biological plausibility and previous studies were included in the multivariable logistic regression analysis. These variables included the age, sex (male, female), advanced airway or not, the administration of adrenaline or not, the administration of saline or not, instructed by dispatcher or not, and time interval from call EMS to scene.
Results
The figure showed favorable neurological outcomes at 30 days. In the multivariate analysis, the adjusted odds ratio for 30-day favorable neurological outcome in OHCA patients in 2016 as compared to in 2011 was 1.32 (95% CI: 1.04–1.68, p=0.022). On the other hands, there were no significant differences from 2011 to 2014.
Conclusion
In the OHCA patients with non-shockable rhythm, the 2015 guidelines were superior to the 2010 guidelines, in terms of neurological benefits.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Clinical-grade human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) established from a healthy volunteer are currently being considered as a quality controlled cell source for regenerative therapy. Transplantation of three-dimensional bioengineered cardiac tissues composed of human iPSC-derived cardiovascular cell lineages is reported to hold potential for cardiac functional recovery.
Purpose
The aims of this study were to evaluate tissue conformation and cellular viability of human iPSC-derived cardiac tissues (HiCTs) generated from clinical-grade cells and to validate functional efficacy of HiCT transplantation.
Methods
Clinical-grade human iPSC lines were simultaneously differentiated into cardiovascular cell lineages by a high-density monolayer culture. The differentiation efficacy was analyzed by flow cytometry. We seeded the cells on temperature responsive culture dishes to form cell sheets. HiCTs are generated by stacking 5 cell sheets with insertion of gelatin hydrogel microspheres (GHMs) between each sheet to promote oxygen and nutrition supply. Characteristics of the HiCTs are histologically and immunohistochemically evaluated. The HiCTs were transplanted onto an athymic nude rat myocardial infarction (MI) model. Cardiac function was evaluated by echocardiography and cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) until 4 weeks after surgery, and compared to those in animals with sham operation and with cell sheet stacks without GHMs [GHM(−)].
Results
Flow cytometry at differentiation day15 revealed cellular components as follows: 52.5±1.4% of cardiomyocytes (cardiac isoform of troponin-T+), 9.8±0.7% of vascular endothelial cells (VE-cadherin+), 14.8±1.8% of vascular mural cells (PDGFRβ+) and 0.2±0.1% of undifferentiated cells (TRA-1-60+). HiCTs were significantly thicker [GHM(−) vs HiCT: 357.3±81.5 vs 723.0±84.0μm, p<0.05], composed of higher area of cardiomyocytes (27.7±7.9 vs 71.9±15.5mm2, p<0.05) and endothelial cells (CD31+) (1.6±0.7 vs 9.2±1.5mm2, p<0.05), free from hypoxia (HIF-1α+) (3.1±0.1 vs 0.8±0.2%, p<0.05) and cell death (TUNEL+) (3.2±0.1 vs 1.4±0.3%, p<0.05) after 7 days of in vitro culture. Echocardiography revealed significantly lower left ventricular end diastolic volume (LVEDV) and higher left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) in HiCT group [sham (n=27) vs GHM(−) (n=12) vs HiCT (n=12): LVEDV; 1.4±0.1 vs 1.3±0.1 vs 0.9±0.1mL, p<0.0001/LVEF; 55.3±1.1 vs 58.2±2.3 vs 78.2±1.5%, p<0.0001]. Cardiac MRI showed lower LVEDV and higher LVEF as well [sham (n=8) vs GHM(−) (n=6) vs HiCT (n=6): LVEDV; 0.7±0.03 vs 0.7±0.03 vs 0.6±0.02mL, p<0.01 / LVEF; 39.2±2.1 vs 43.8±1.4 vs 54.0±2.8%, p<0.001].
Conclusions
We conclude that HiCTs generated from clinical-grade cells hold sufficient viability and tissue conformation suitable for functional recovery validated by a rat MI model. Clinical-grade human iPSCs potentially serve as a reasonable cell source for stem cell-derived product transplantation therapy with foreseeable clinical applications.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Lipoprotein(a) [LP(a)] is known to be a robust lipid marker associated with cardiovascular events. Though coronary artery disease and peripheral artery disease (PAD) are often coexist, little is known about the relationship between LP(a) and PAD among patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS).
Purpose
The purpose of this study is to examine if LP(a) is of predictive value for PAD among ACS patients in Japanese population.
Methods
Of consecutive 238 ACS patient who received successful primary PCI, a total of 175 patients were enrolled in the current study. We excluded the patients who received hemodialysis (n=10), required multidisciplinary treatment (n=36) and incomplete data (n=17). PAD was diagnosed as ankle brachial index <0.9. Multiple lipid biomarkers [LP(a), low-density lipoprotein (LDL-C), high-density lipoprotein (HDL-C), malondialdehyde-modified LDL (MDA-LDL), docosahexaenoic acid and arachidonic acid] were compared between patients with PAD (n=21) and without PAD (n=154). Further, multivariable logistic regression models were used to assess if LP(a) was associated with PAD. In addition, serum LP(a) level were compared between 3 groups according to pattern of PAD [none (n=154), unilateral (n=10) and bilateral PAD (n=11), respectively].
Results
Compared to patients without PAD, those with PAD were older (74.4 vs. 65.4 years, p=0.003), and had a higher prevalence of chronic kidney disease (CKD) (61.9% vs. 20.1%, p<0.001), diabetes mellitus (DM) (66.7% vs. 27.3%, p<0.001). Serum LP(a) level was significantly higher in patients with PAD (36.4 vs. 18.5 mg/dl, p<0.001), whereas LDL-C and MDA-LDL were significantly lower in PAD (92.0 vs. 109.5 mg/dl, p=0.015 and 98.6 vs. 119.5 mg/dl, p=0.046, respectively). After adjusting for LDL-C and MDA-LDL, LP(a) >30 mg/dl was independently associated with a presence of PAD (OR 5.67, 95% CI 2.09–15.4, p=0.0006). When adjusting for CKD and DM in a different model, LP(a) >30 mg/dl was similarly associated with PAD (OR 4.98, 95% CI 1.66–14.9, p=0.004). Serum LP(a) levels were significantly higher in bilateral PAD group compared to none PAD group (Figure).
Conclusion
LP(a) was a useful lipid biomarker for the prevalence and severity of PAD among patients with ACS in Japanese population.

Abstract
Primordial odontogenic tumor (POT) is a newly classified, mixed epithelial and mesenchymal odontogenic tumor, with only 17 reported cases to date. Herein, we report a case of POT that occurred in the right maxilla of a 10-year-old boy and reveal unique features in comparison with those previously reported. Radiologically, the lesion presented as a well-defined, unilocular radiolucency with notable radiopaque foci on the periphery. Microscopically, the tumor was mainly composed of dental papilla-like myxoid fibrous connective tissue, largely surrounded by non-keratinized squamous epithelium with numerous calcified particles, and partly enclosed by inner enamel epithelium-like columnar cells and enamel organ-like structures accompanied with cuboidal and/or stellate reticulum-like cells. Immunohistochemically, the epithelium tested positive for cytokeratin 14 and 19. Moreover, amelogenin and ameloblastin, matrix proteins relating to enamel formation, were positive in the covering epithelium. The tumor was enucleated as a whole, and no recurrence was recorded thereafter. Although the presence of numerous calcified particles was unique, we diagnosed this lesion as POT based on the above-described features. Furthermore, we emphasize the importance of the differential diagnosis of POT and other odontogenic tumors that resemble corresponding tooth germ components.

Abstract
Background Metastasis of renal cell carcinoma to the oral cavity is rare. Renal cell carcinoma metastases are regarded as radioresistant tumors and surgery is recommended. However, since metastatic renal cell carcinoma has poor prognosis and is composed of abundant blood vessels, it is sometimes difficult for clinicians to choose surgical therapy. Here, we report a case of a patient with renal cell carcinoma metastasis to the maxillary bone, which was successfully controlled by surgical therapy after vascular embolization, and provide a detailed literature review regarding the treatments and outcomes of renal cell carcinoma metastasis to the oral cavity. Case presentation An 89-year-old Japanese man presented with an 8 × 8-mm granulomatous tumor with palpable pulsation in the left upper gingiva, which had been clinically suspected as an arteriovenous malformation or neoplastic lesion with rich blood vessels. Our patient had undergone left nephrectomy for clear cell carcinoma 7 years prior. Pulmonary metastasis had appeared 3 years later. After intravascular embolization, our patient underwent tumor resection of the maxilla with little intraoperative blood loss. The tumor was diagnosed on histopathology as a metastasis of clear cell renal cell carcinoma to the maxillary bone. Seventeen months after surgery, he died because of pulmonary metastasis without evidence of recurrence in the oral cavity. Conclusions Our literature review reveals that oral metastatic lesions of renal cancer often exhibit rapid enlargement and cause severe symptoms, such as dysphagia and bleeding. Although oral metastasis of renal cell carcinoma has a poor prognosis due to the presence of concurrent disseminated metastases, surgical therapy may be recommended because of its high local control rate and ability to maintain quality of life. Preoperative vascular embolization is considered to be effective to reduce intraoperative hemorrhage, which leads to safe surgery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Scabies is a contagious dermatosis. The risk factors for its transmission remain unclear. A scabies outbreak, involving patients who were receiving chemotherapy for haematological malignancies, occurred at our hospital. METHODS The outbreak population was analysed to determine whether the incidence of scabies was higher among contact patients receiving chemotherapy for haematological malignancies. RESULTS A patient with crusted scabies was the index case, and 18 of 78 contact healthcare workers (HCWs) and 22 of 135 contact patients were diagnosed with classical scabies. Ten of 17 contact patients with haematological malignancies and 12 of 118 contact patients with other diseases were infected with scabies. The incidence rate was significantly higher among the patients with haematological malignancies (P<0.001). The patients with haematological malignancies had a significantly lower mean minimum neutrophil count than those with other diseases (1159/μL vs 3761/μL, P=0.0012). Most haematological patients did not require special nursing assistance, suggesting that the higher incidence of scabies among these patients resulted from their immunodeficiency rather than greater skin-to-skin contact with infected HCWs. CONCLUSION Our study suggests that patients receiving chemotherapy for haematological malignancies are more susceptible to scabies than patients with other diseases, and require stricter protection.

Abstract
Secretory carcinoma (SC) of the salivary gland was identified in 2010, and it is characterized by a specific ETV6 gene arrangement. The most common primary site for SC is the parotid gland; however, SC around the Stensen's duct is rare. Here we describe a rare case of a SC around the Stensen's duct that was initially misdiagnosed as a salivary duct cyst. A 59-year-old woman presented with a mass in the region of the left parotid papilla. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed a well-circumscribed lesion and enhancement with a rim and an inner wall-like part that appeared in the late phase. Based on the initial clinical and imaging findings, a salivary duct cyst of the parotid gland was diagnosed. However, the lesion was histopathologically diagnosed as a SC based on immunohistochemical findings. The tumor cells showed diffuse positive staining for AE1/AE3, vimentin, and mammaglobin and focal positive staining for S-100 protein, SOX-10, and DOG-1. Fluorescence in-situ hybridization revealed ETV6 gene rearrangement in the tumor. In cases of cystic lesions around the Stensen's duct, clinicians should bear in mind that the possibility that they could be minor salivary gland cancers, such as SC.
