Abstract
The memory window of floating gate (FG) type non-volatile memory (NVM) devices is a fundamental figure of merit used not only to evaluate the performance, such as retention and endurance, but also to discuss the feasibility of advanced functional memory devices. However, the memory window of 2D materials based NVM devices is historically determined from round sweep transfer curves, while that of conventional Si NVM devices is determined from high and low threshold voltages (Vth s), which are measured by single sweep transfer curves. Here, it is elucidated that the memory window of 2D NVM devices determined from round sweep transfer curves is overestimated compared with that determined from single sweep transfer curves. The floating gate voltage measurement proposed in this study clarifies that the Vth s in round sweep are controlled not only by the number of charges stored in floating gate but also by capacitive coupling between floating gate and back gate. The present finding on the overestimation of memory window enables to appropriately evaluate the potential of 2D NVM devices.

Abstract
Diamond Blackfan Anemia (DBA) is a congenital bone marrow failure syndrome associated with ribosomal gene mutations that lead to ribosomal insufficiency. DBA is characterized by anemia, congenital anomalies, and cancer predisposition. Treatment for DBA is associated with significant morbidity. Here, we report the identification of Nemo-like kinase (NLK) as a potential target for DBA therapy. To identify new DBA targets, we screen for small molecules that increase erythroid expansion in mouse models of DBA. This screen identified a compound that inhibits NLK. Chemical and genetic inhibition of NLK increases erythroid expansion in mouse and human progenitors, including bone marrow cells from DBA patients. In DBA models and patient samples, aberrant NLK activation is initiated at the Megakaryocyte/Erythroid Progenitor (MEP) stage of differentiation and is not observed in non-erythroid hematopoietic lineages or healthy erythroblasts. We propose that NLK mediates aberrant erythropoiesis in DBA and is a potential target for therapy. Diamond Blackfan Anemia (DBA) is a congenital bone marrow failure syndrome that is associated with anemia. Here, the authors examine the role of Nemo-like kinase (NLK) in erythroid cells in the pathogenesis of DBA and as a potential target for therapy.

Abstract
Background:A polymorphism onFTO(OMIM 610966) was reported as a causal variant for obesity, plays a critical rule not only in amount of adipose tissue but also in function of mitochondrial thermogenesis1.Objectives:To examine the association of the genotype on a single nucleotide polymorphism onFTOwith bone health.Methods:FTO rs1421085 polymorphism was genotyped in 1,601 community-dwelling Japanese participants. This cross-sectional study was nested in Nagasaki Islands Study, which is a prospective cohort in Goto City, in islands of Japan. Participants were recruited at medical check-ups for community dwelling population.Bone mass of the calcaneus was evaluated with stiffness index calculated using a quantitative ultrasound measurement. Low bone mass was defined as a stiffness index less than 80 % of the young adult mean.Sera and peripheral blood mononuclear cells were obtained. The SNP of rs1421085 was genotyped using hydrolysis probe. The chi-squared test was used to determine whether the variants were in equilibrium in that population. Trend for the median of BMI among genotypes was assessed using the Jonckheere-Terpstra test. Potential associations between FTO polymorphism and overweight and between the polymorphism and low bone mass were evaluated using logistic regression. All analyses were carried out using SPSS 23.Results:Genotype and allele frequencies for the polymorphism were in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (minor allele frequency 0.16, p = 0.40) in 1,601 community-dwelling persons (mean age was 68.5 years in men and 68.1 years in women).There were significant associations between the minor allele and higher median of BMI on dose dependent manner in men (p = 0.04 for trend in men and p = 0.10 for trend in women, respectively), and between the minor allele and overweight (>25 in BMI, OR 1.52, 95%CI 1.07 2.14, p=0.02 in men, OR 1.48, 95%CI 1.16 1.95, p=0.01 in women).Logistic regression analysis showed a significant protective association in men with carriers of minor allele against low bone mass after an adjustment for age and BMI (OR 0.63, 95%CI 0.44 0.90, p=0.01 in men, not significant in women).Conclusion:Our study indicated significant associations of the polymorphism onFTOwith BMI and bone mass among community dwelling men. The polymorphism may play a rule in a part of bone health with higher BMI and other beneficial functions.References:[1]N Engl J Med. 2015; 373: 895-907Disclosure of Interests:None declared

Abstract
2D van der Waals ferroelectrics have emerged as an attractive building block with immense potential to provide multifunctionality in nanoelectronics. Although several accomplishments have been reported in ferroelectric switching for out-of-plane ferroelectrics down to the monolayer, a purely in-plane ferroelectric has not been experimentally validated at the monolayer thickness. Herein, an in-plane ferroelectricity is demonstrated for micrometer-size monolayer SnS at room temperature. SnS has been commonly regarded to exhibit the odd–even effect, where the centrosymmetry breaks only in the odd-number layers to exhibit ferroelectricity. Remarkably, however, a robust room temperature ferroelectricity exists in SnS below a critical thickness of 15 layers with both an odd and even number of layers, suggesting the possibility of controlling the stacking sequence of multilayer SnS beyond the limit of ferroelectricity in the monolayer. This work will pave the way for nanoscale ferroelectric applications based on SnS as a platform for in-plane ferroelectrics. Out-of-plane ferroelectricity is usually unstable in the two dimensional limit due to the presence of the depolarization field. Here, the authors successfully circumvent this issue by growing µm-sized SnS monolayers that exhibit in-plane ferroelectricity that is stable at room temperature.

Abstract
Investigating slow earthquake activity in subduction zones provides insight into the slip behavior of megathrusts, which can provide important clues about the rupture extent of future great earthquakes. Using the S-net ocean-bottom seismograph network along the Japan Trench, we mapped a detailed distribution of tectonic tremors, which coincided with very-low-frequency earthquakes and a slow slip event. Compiling these and other related observations, including repeating earthquakes and earthquake swarms, we found that the slow earthquake distribution is complementary to the Tohoku-Oki earthquake rupture. We used our observations to divide the megathrust in the Japan Trench into three along-strike segments characterized by different slip behaviors. We found that the rupture of the Tohoku-Oki earthquake, which nucleated in the central segment, was terminated by the two adjacent segments.

Abstract
Background and Objectives Computational clinical trial (CCT) in the field of laser medicine promotes clinical application of novel laser devices, because this trial carried out based on numerical modeling of laser-tissue interactions and simulation of a series of treatment process. To confirm the feasibility of the computational clinical trial of skin treatment with a novel picosecond laser, this paper presents an evaluation method of the safety. Study Design/Materials and Methods In this method, the light propagation and thermal diffusion process after ultrashort light pulse irradiation to a numerical skin model is calculated and the safety based on the photothermal damage is evaluated by computational modeling and simulation. As an example, the safety of a novel picosecond laser device was examined by comparing with several laser devices approved for clinical use. Results The ratio of the maximum thermal damage induced by picosecond laser irradiation was 1.2 × 10-2 % at the epidermis, while that caused by approved laser irradiation was 99 % at the capillary vessels. The numerical simulation demonstrated that less thermal damage was observed compared with the approved devices. The results show the safety simulated by photothermal damage calculation was consistent with the reported clinical trials. Conclusions This computational clinical trial shows the feasibility of applying computational clinical trials for the safety evaluation of novel medical laser devices. In contrast to preclinical and clinical tests, the proposed computational method offers regulatory science for appropriately and quickly predicting and evaluating the safety of a novel laser device.

Abstract
Background We assessed the non-inferiority of accelerated fractionation (AF) (2.4 Gy/fraction) compared with standard fractionation (SF) (2 Gy/fraction) regarding progression-free survival (PFS) in patients with T1-2N0M0 glottic cancer (GC). Patients and methods In this multi-institutional, randomized, phase III trial, patients were enrolled from 32 Japanese institutions. Key inclusion criteria were GC T1-2N0M0, age 20-80, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status of 0-1, and adequate organ function. Patients were randomly assigned to receive either SF of 66-70 Gy (33-35 fractions), or AF of 60-64.8 Gy (25-27 fractions). The primary end point was the proportion of 3-year PFS. The planned sample size was 360 with a non-inferiority margin of 5%. Results Between 2007 and 2013, 370 patients were randomized (184/186 to SF/AF). Three-year PFS was 79.9% (95% confidence interval [CI] 73.4-85.4) for SF and 81.7% (95% CI 75.4-87.0) for AF (difference 1.8%, 91% CI-5.1% to 8.8%; one-sided P = 0.047 > 0.045). The cumulative incidences of local failure at 3 years for SF/AF were 15.9%/10.3%. No significant difference was observed in 3-year overall survival (OS) between SF and AF. Grade 3 or 4 acute and late toxicities developed in 22 (12.4%)/21 (11.5%) and 2 (1.1%)/1 (0.5%) in the SF/AF arms. Conclusion Although the non-inferiority of AF was not confirmed statistically, the similar efficacy and toxicity of AF compared with SF, as well as the practical convenience of its fewer treatment sessions, suggest the potential of AF as a treatment option for early GC.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Presepsin, a subtype of soluble CD14, is an inflammatory marker, which largely reflects monocytic activation. Presepsin appears to be an accurate diagnostic marker of sepsis, but its clinical significance remains unclear in cardiovascular disease.
Purpose
This prospective study aimed to investigate the predictive value of plasma presepsin levels on admission to medical (non-surgical) cardiac intensive care units (MCICUs) for short-term mortality.
Methods
We examined 1560 patients hospitalized in MCICUs and measured the baseline plasma presepsin levels at admission.
Results
Acute coronary syndrome was present in 46% of the patients, and acute decompensated heart failure in 36%. Before MCICUs admission, emergent coronary angiography or percutaneous coronary intervention was performed in 36%, mechanical ventilation was required for respiratory insufficiency in 2.1%, and intraaortic balloon pumps were needed for hemodynamic instability in 8.9%. During 6 months after admission, there were 113 (7.2%) deaths. Patients who died were older (median: 77 vs. 71 years, P<0.0001); had higher levels of presepsin (263 vs. 119 pg/mL, P<0.0001), B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP: 696 vs. 186 pg/mL, P<0.0001), high-sensitivity troponin T (hsTnT: 81 vs. 47 pg/mL, P=0.004), and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (13.8 vs. 2.2 mg/L, P<0.0001); and had lower levels of estimated glomerular filtration rate (50 vs. 65 mL/min/1.73m2, P<0.0001) and left ventricular ejection fraction (43% vs. 51%, P<0.0001) than those of the survivors. In the multivariate Cox regression analysis, higher levels of presepsin (P=0.0002), BNP (P=0.04), and hsTnT (P=0.009) were all independent predictors of 6-month deaths. Quartiles of presepsin levels were associated with higher mortality rates within 6 months after admission (Table). Adding presepsin levels to a baseline model that included established risk factors, BNP, and hsTnT further enhanced reclassification (P=0.004) and discrimination (P=0.003) beyond that of the baseline model.
Mortality rates according to presepsin Presepsin quartile 1st 2nd 3rd 4th P value ≤80 pg/mL 81–124 pg/mL 125–232 pg/mL >232 pg/mL 1-month mortality 0.8% 2.0% 3.3% 8.0% <0.0001 6-month mortality 0.8% 3.8% 8.2% 16.3% <0.0001
Conclusions
Presepsin levels at admission could improve the prediction of short-term mortality in patients hospitalized at MCICUs.

Abstract
The Lifshitz transition, a change in Fermi surface topology, is likely to greatly influence exotic correlated phenomena in solids, such as high-temperature superconductivity and complex magnetism. However, since the observation of Fermi surfaces is generally difficult in the strongly correlated systems, a direct link between the Lifshitz transition and quantum phenomena has been elusive so far. Here, we report a marked impact of the pressure-induced Lifshitz transition on thermoelectric performance for SnSe, a promising thermoelectric material without a strong electron correlation. By applying pressure up to 1.6 GPa, we have observed a large enhancement of the thermoelectric power factor by more than 100% over a wide temperature range (10-300 K). Furthermore, the high carrier mobility enables the detection of quantum oscillations of resistivity, revealing the emergence of new Fermi pockets at ∼0.86 GPa. The observed thermoelectric properties linked to the multivalley band structure are quantitatively reproduced by first-principles calculations, providing novel insight into designing the SnSe-related materials for potential valleytronic as well as thermoelectric applications.

Abstract
A flexuous virus was detected in a Cnidium officinale plant in Japan showing mosaic symptoms. The virus was assigned to the genus Potexvirus based on analysis of its complete nucleotide sequence. The genomic RNA of the virus was 5,964 nucleotides in length, excluding the 3'-terminal poly(A) tail. It contained five open reading frames (ORFs), consistent with other members of Potexvirus. The ORF sequences differ from those of previously reported potexviruses. Phylogenetic analysis indicated that the polymerase of the virus is closely related to that of strawberry mild yellow edge virus; and the CP, to those of both yam virus X and vanilla virus X. We propose that this virus be designated as "cnidium virus X" (CnVX).

Abstract
Abstract
[Introduction] Non-malignant proliferative lesions in the breast have been implicated in the development of invasive breast cancer. Previous studies showed that adjacent atypical proliferative lesions and breast cancers shared common genetic alterations, suggesting that these evolved from the same ancestral cell. However, the clonal structure of atypical proliferative lesions and their clonal dynamics during progression to cancer are poorly understood. In this study, we compared genetic profiles (with and without pathogenic germline mutations) of normal mammary ducts, non-malignant proliferative lesions, and cancer tissues from the same patients to illustrate the clonal evolution of cancer from a non-malignant epithelial cell.
[Methods] Multiple samples were collected from different proliferative lesions within the cancer-borne breast, including invasive cancers, using micro-dissection from formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded surgical specimens. Somatic mutations and copy number alterations (CNAs) were then evaluated by whole exome sequencing.
[Results] We analyzed a total of 34 samples from 5 premenopausal females carrying estrogen receptor-positive cancers, where the samples were obtained from normal ducts (N = 6), non-atypical (N = 1) and atypical (N = 8) proliferative lesions, and non-invasive (N = 16) and invasive (N = 3) cancers. The number of somatic mutations per sample ranged from 1 to 276 and increased with disease progression, regardless of the germline mutation status. Two cases with bilateral cancers had a pathogenic germline mutation of either BRCA2 or TP53, where no somatic mutations or CNAs were shared by individual proliferative lesions, suggesting multifocal independent cancerous evolutions. By contrast, in the remaining three unilateral cases, no pathogenic germline mutations were detected, but all proliferative lesions, which were separated by a distance of 7-25 mm, shared one or more driver alterations, such as an AKT1 mutation (UID: KU01), concurrent 1q gain and 16q loss (der(1;16)) (UID: KU02), and a GATA3 mutation and der(1;16) (UID: KU03), while harboring private mutations and/or CNAs of their own. The phylogenetic analysis based on the number of shared mutations predicted an early origin of these founder mutations, which frequently predated decades before the onset of cancer.
[Conclusions] Our results suggest that early breast cancer development is shaped by the evolution of multiple precancerous clones. These clones are originated from a common ancestor that acquired a founder mutation long before the onset of cancer, followed by branching evolution of multiple clones that acquired additional driver mutations of their own, from which an invasive cancer ultimately develops. In hereditary cases, this process is thought to be substantially promoted multi-focally from within the entire breasts by a germline mutation shared by all mammary cells, frequently resulting in bilateral and/or multifocal breast cancers.

Abstract
Nanomaterials are frequently used in microelectronics, cosmetics, and sunscreens. Platinum reagents are commonly used in disease diagnosis, cosmetics, and the food industry. Although research into the development of nanomaterialbased drug delivery systems has yielded promising results, the toxicity of these materials is not fully understood. We investigated the toxicity and drug interactions of 1- and 8-nm diameter platinum nanoparticles (nPt1 and nPt8, respectively) in mice. Acute hepato-renal toxicity of intravenously administered platinum nanoparticles was evaluated biochemically and histologically. Dose-dependent increases in serum markers of hepato-renal function (serum aminotransferases and blood urea nitrogen) were observed following administration of nPt1, whereas nPt8 had no effect, even at 20 mg/kg. Moreover, nPt1 induced interleukin (IL)-6 and IL-1β production 3 and 6 hours after administration. The effect of nPts on drug-induced toxicity was evaluated in mice injected intraperitoneally with carbon tetrachloride or cisplatin, with or without intravenous administration of platinum nanoparticles. All treatments in the absence of nanoparticles were non-lethal and resulted in moderate toxicity. However, exacerbated toxicity was observed in mice injected with carbon tetrachloride or cisplatin together with nPt1, but not in mice co-injected with nPt8. We found that nPt1 cause hepato-renal damage, and the effect is enhanced by chemical inducers of hepatotoxicity and nephrotoxicity. This is the first report demonstrating that nPt1 not only are hepatotoxic and nephrotoxic but also exacerbate drug toxicity. These findings will be useful for future nanotechnology and nanoscience research.
