Abstract
Chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV) is one of the most serious adverse effects of cancer therapy. Cancer patients frequently use acid suppressants (AS) for palliation of gastrointestinal symptoms associated with malignancy and/or anticancer therapy. AS are suggested as an additional option for CINV management in several antiemetic guidelines, although their efficacy remains unknown. The aim of this study was to determine whether AS administration affects CINV incidence in cisplatin and gemcitabine treatment for biliary tract cancer. The primary endpoint was to evaluate whether AS administration was associated with the incidence of all-grade nausea in the first administration by logistic analysis. The secondary endpoints were to assess factors associated with anorexia. Prophylactic antiemetics were based on current guidelines. Nausea occurred in 34.2% of patients (grade 1, 31.7%; grade 2, 2.5%). Patients exhibiting vomiting and anorexia represented 4.2% and 39.1%, respectively, without grade 3/4 symptoms. Multivariate analysis suggested that the independent risk factors for nausea as female sex, and no- or less-alcohol drinking habit and regular narcotics administration were associated with anorexia. In contrast, AS administration was not associated with nausea and anorexia incidence (odds ratio, 95% confidence interval: 1.43, 0.64-3.23; P =0.38 for nausea, 1.62, 0.71-3.68; P =0.25 for anorexia). In conclusion, we found that AS administration is not associated with CINV incidence, and female sex is a risk factor for nausea, and non-alcohol drinking habits and regular narcotic use are factors associated with anorexia in cisplatin and gemcitabine treatment for biliary tract cancer. We should correctly administer AS depending on the patient's situation. Successful CINV management needs effective monitoring and administration of prophylactic antiemetics and counter-measure medicines for patients at risk.

Abstract
AIMS/INTRODUCTION We investigated the association between gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) and perinatal outcomes stratified by pre-pregnancy body mass index (BMI) and/or gestational weight gain (GWG). MATERIALS AND METHODS Data from the national birth cohort in the Japan Environment and Children's Study from 2011 to 2014 (n = 85,228) were used. Japan uses the GDM guidelines of the International Association of Diabetes and Pregnancy Study Groups. The odds ratios (ORs) of perinatal outcomes were compared between women with and those without GDM. RESULTS The OR (95% confidence interval) of having a small for gestational age infant in the GDM group with a pre-pregnancy BMI of ≥25.0 kg/m2 and insufficient GWG (<2.75 kg) was 1.78 (1.02-3.12). The OR of having a large for gestational age infant of the same BMI group with excessive GWG (>7.25 kg) was 2.04 (1.56-2.67). The OR of hypertensive disorders of pregnancy was higher in women with a BMI ≥18.5 kg/m2 in the GDM group than in the non-GDM group. CONCLUSIONS Large for gestational age and hypertensive disorders of pregnancy were associated with pre-pregnancy BMI and GWG in either normal weight or overweight/obese women, and the relationship was strengthened when GDM was present. Women with GDM and a BMI of ≥25.0 kg/m2 are at risk of having small for gestational age and large for gestational age infants depending on GWG.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Previous studies have demonstrated associations between gut microbiota, microbial metabolites, and cognitive decline. However, relationships between these factors and lipopolysaccharides (LPS; molecules of the outer membrane of gram-negative bacteria) remain controversial. OBJECTIVE To evaluate associations between plasma LPS, gut microbiota, and cognitive function. METHODS We performed a cross-sectional sub-analysis of data of 127 participants (women: 58%, mean age: 76 years) from our prospective cohort study regarding the relationship between gut microbiota and cognitive function. We enrolled patients who visited our memory clinic and assessed demographics, dementia-related risk factors, cognitive function, brain imaging, gut microbiomes, and microbial metabolites. We evaluated relationships between cognitive decline and plasma LPS using multivariable logistic regression analyses. RESULTS Plasma LPS concentration increased with increasing degree of cognitive decline and total cerebral small vessel disease (SVD) score (Kruskal-Wallis test; p = 0.016 and 0.007, respectively). Participants with high plasma LPS concentrations tended to have lower concentrations of gut microbial metabolites, such as lactic acid and acetic acid, and were less likely to consume fish and shellfish (44.7% versus 69.6%, p = 0.027) than those with low plasma LPS concentrations. Multivariable analyses revealed that plasma LPS concentration was independently associated with the presence of mild cognitive impairment in participants without dementia (odds ratio: 2.09, 95% confidence interval: 1.14-3.84, p = 0.007). CONCLUSION In this preliminary study, plasma LPS concentration was associated with both cognitive decline and cerebral SVD and significantly correlated with beneficial gut microbial metabolites. Plasma LPS may be a risk factor for cognitive decline.

Abstract
AIM To make effective use of the limited available hospital space during the Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, we conducted this study to investigate the laboratory indices that identify pregnant women with SARS-CoV2 infection who require medical intervention. METHODS We carried out a retrospective analysis of pregnant women positive for COVID-19 who were admitted to Hokkaido University Hospital from September 2020 to June 2021. Medical interventions included oxygen supplementation, systemic corticosteroids, or supplemental liquids to treat infection-related symptoms. RESULTS Forty-two infected pregnant patients were admitted to the hospital, half of whom required medical intervention (n = 21). Fever, C-reactive protein (CRP), and platelet count are all associated with need for medical intervention. Of the 32 patients with a fever of ≥37.5°C on days 0-3 after onset of syndromes, 22 (69%) continued to have a fever on days 4-6, of which 19 (86.4%) required medical intervention. CRP level on days 4-6 predicted the presence or absence of medical intervention (area under the receiver operating characteristic curve = 0.913), with a sensitivity of 81% and specificity of 100% at a CRP cutoff of 1.28 mg/dL. CONCLUSIONS The need for medical intervention in pregnant patients can be predicted with high accuracy using a CRP cutoff of 1.28 mg/dL on days 4-6 after onset of syndromes. The presence of fever also may be an easy marker for selecting subjects who need or will need therapeutic intervention. These could be an effective triage method to determine appropriate indications for the hospitalization of pregnant women in future outbreaks.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The best thromboprophylaxis for pregnant women with congenital antithrombin deficiency (CAD) is controversial. OBJECTIVE To clarify the effectiveness of a protocol for venous thromboembolism (VTE) prevention in pregnant women with CAD. METHODS Women at high risk of VTE were administered antithrombin concentrate and heparin after conception, whereas those at low risk of VTE were administered heparin alone until delivery. All women received antithrombin concentrate at delivery except for one who was diagnosed with CAD. RESULTS Ten women had CAD, including one in the high-risk group and nine in the low-risk group. No women had VTE at delivery as per the protocol for VTE prevention. Almost all women had increased antithrombin activity before delivery followed by maintenance at ≥ 70% due to antithrombin concentrate administration. VTE prophylaxis during and after delivery was successful in all women with CAD. However, one woman in the low-risk group did not receive heparin and developed VTE induced by severe hyperemesis at 9 gestational weeks, before the diagnosis of CAD. Women in the high-risk group received antithrombin concentrate after delivery but had increased D-dimer levels at postpartum. CONCLUSIONS Our protocol to prevent VTE in pregnant women with CAD is safe and effective.

Introduction
Antithrombotic therapy including antiplatelet agents and anticoagulants are prescribed for secondary prevention in patients with established cardiovascular disease. Although antithrombotic therapy is often interrupted before non-cardiac surgery with or without perioperative bridging anticoagulation, the impact on thrombotic and bleeding events remains uncertain.
Purpose
The aim of this study was to clarify the impact of perioperative interruption of anticoagulants on thrombotic and bleeding events in patients with established CVD undergoing elective non-cardiac surgery.
Methods
A total of 330 patients chronically treated with antithrombotic therapy for secondary prevention underwent elective non-cardiac surgery under general anesthesia, with the complete interruption of antithrombotic agents. The study endpoints included all-cause death, thrombotic events, and major bleeding complications after surgical procedures.
Results
Of 330 patients, 171 (51.8%) and 159 (48.2%) received antiplatelet agents and anticoagulants perioperatively. Atrial fibrillation (31.8%) and coronary artery disease (20.3%) were the major indications for antithrombotic regimens. Antithrombotic therapy was interrupted from 5 [2, 7] days before the surgery to 4 [2, 7] days postoperatively. Perioperative bridging therapy with unfractionated heparin was employed in 99 (30.0%) patients. During the hospitalization, 3 (0.9%) patients died due to non-cardiovascular causes. Thrombotic events and major bleeding occurred in 2 (0.6%) and 9 (2.7%) patients. Bridging therapy with heparin was non-significantly associated with an increased risk of bleeding events (5.1% vs. 1.7%, p = 0.09). In univariable and multivariable analyses, pre-operative hemoglobin level and operative duration were significantly associated with bleeding complications.
Conclusions
In the present study, complete interruption of antithrombotic therapy resulted in a few thrombotic events with a numerically higher rate of bleeding events in patients undergoing elective non-cardiac surgery. Pre-operative hemoglobin level and operative duration were significantly associated with post-operative bleeding complications.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aimed to investigate whether inflammation affects the outcome of swallowing ability to improve treatment for sarcopenic dysphagia. DESIGN A retrospective observational cohort study was performed using data from the Japanese sarcopenic dysphagia database. SETTING The database was constructed using data from 19 hospitals and one home visiting rehabilitation team. PARTICIPANTS Patients with sarcopenic dysphagia with measurements of C-reactive protein (CRP) and serum albumin (Alb) were included. MEASUREMENTS Patients were assigned to two groups using CRP, Alb, and the Japanese modified Glasgow Prognostic Score (mGPS). The Food Intake LEVEL Scale (FILS) was measured at the times of admission and follow-up (FILS follow-up) to assess swallowing function. RESULTS A total of 197 patients were included. Mean or median values of each parameter were as follows: age: 83.8±8.7, Alb: 3.2 ± 0.6 g/dL, CRP: 8.0 [3.0, 29.0] mg/L, mGPS: 1 [1-2], FILS: 7 [6-8], FILS follow-up: 8 [7-8], and duration of follow-up: 57.0 [27.0, 85.0] days. The FILS score at follow-up was significantly lower in the high CRP group (≥ 5.0 mg/L) than in the low CRP group (< 5.0 mg/L) (p = 0.01). Further, the FILS score at follow-up was significantly lower in the high mGPS group (class; 2) than in the low mGPS group (class; 0 and 1) (p = 0.03). In the multiple linear regression analyses without FILS at baseline, CRP and mGPS were independent risk factors for FILS follow-up. When FILS at baseline was entered, CRP and mGPS were not an independent risk factors for FILS follow-up. CONCLUSIONS Inflammation could modify the outcome of the patients with sarcopenic dysphagia. Inflammation may be an important risk factor in evaluating patients with sarcopenic dysphagia.

Abstract
The gut microbiome has emerged as a key regulator of obesity; however, its role in brown adipose tissue (BAT) metabolism and association with obesity remain to be elucidated. We found that the levels of circulating branched-chain amino acids (BCAA) and their cognate α-ketoacids (BCKA) were significantly correlated with the body weight in humans and mice and that BCAA catabolic defects in BAT were associated with obesity in diet-induced obesity (DIO) mice. Pharmacological systemic enhancement of BCAA catabolic activity reduced plasma BCAA and BCKA levels and protected against obesity; these effects were reduced in BATectomized mice. DIO mice gavaged with Bacteroides dorei and Bacteroides vulgatus exhibited improved BAT BCAA catabolism and attenuated body weight gain, which were not observed in BATectomized DIO mice. Our data have highlighted a possible link between the gut microbiota and BAT BCAA catabolism and suggest that Bacteroides probiotics could be used for treating obesity. Gut microbiota regulated BAT BCAA catabolism Bacteroides promoted BAT BCAA catabolism and inhibited obesity Bacteroides suppressed BAT inflammation that contributed to BAT BCAA catabolic defect

Abstract
Abstract
Background
The standard diagnosis of heart failure (HF) with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is based on the following: 1) symptoms of HF, 2) preserved left ventricular (LV) ejection fraction (LVEF, >50%), and 3) presence of LV diastolic dysfunction confirmed by echocardiography or cardiac catheterisation. However, there are limits to the diagnostic accuracy of individual parameters, and what cut-off values should be applied and how they should be combined remain unclear. Diagnostic algorithms for HFpEF such as the HFA-PEFF algorithm and the H2FPEF score have been proposed; however, previous validation studies were conducted in stable chronic HF and did not include an invasive haemodynamic assessment. Thus, the diagnostic accuracy for HFpEF lacked robustness. Moreover, information on their applicability in the Asian population is limited.
Purpose
The aim of this study was to investigate these scores' diagnostic validity for HFpEF in Japanese patients recently hospitalised due to acute decompensated HF.
Methods
We examined patients with HFpEF recently hospitalised with acute decompensated HF whose HFA-PEFF and H2FPEF scores could be calculated at discharge from a nationwide HFpEF-specific multicentre registry (HFpEF group) and control patients who underwent echocardiography to investigate the cause of dyspnoea in our hospital (Non-HFpEF group). We calculated the HFA-PEFF and the H2FPEF scores among the studied population. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves and area under the curve (AUC) were computed to compare the diagnostic accuracy of these scores.
Results
The studied population included 372 consecutive patients (194 HFpEF group and 178 Non-HFpEF group; HFpEF prevalence, 52%). The HFA-PEFF score classified 155 (42%) of all patients into the high likelihood category (5–6 points) and only 19 (5%) into the low likelihood category (0–1 point). A high HFA-PEFF score could diagnose HFpEF with a high specificity of 84% and a positive predictive value (PPV) of 82%, and a low HFA-PEFF score could rule out HFpEF with a high sensitivity of 99% and a negative predictive value (NPV) of 89%. The H2FPEF score classified 86 (23%) of all patients into the high likelihood category (6–9 points) and 84 (23%) into the low likelihood category (0–1 point). HFpEF could be diagnosed with a high H2FPEF score (specificity, 97%; PPV, 94%) or ruled out with a low H2FPEF score (sensitivity, 97%; NPV, 93%). The diagnostic accuracy for the HFA-PEFF and H2FPEF scores was 0.82 (95% confidence interval [CI] 0.78–0.86) and 0.89 (95% CI 0.86–0.93), respectively, by the AUC of the ROC curve (P=0.004) (Figure 1A). In the HFA-PEFF sub-scores, the functional score showed little diagnostic value, while the morphological and biomarker scores showed moderate diagnostic value (Figure 1B).
Conclusions
The H2FPEF score may be more useful than the HFA-PEFF score in diagnosing HFpEF in Japanese patients.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction
Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) of endothelial nitric oxide synthase (NOS3) have been reported to be associated with diabetes mellitus and myocardial infarction. However, few reports have prospectively investigated the effects of NOS3 SNP on cardiovascular death and nonfatal myocardial infarction.
Purpose
The purpose of this study was to investigate the impact of NOS3 SNP on cardiovascular death and the development of nonfatal myocardial infarction.
Methods
This prospective cohort study included 2,752 subjects (aged ≥40) who participated in a community based health checkup. We genotyped two SNPs within NOS3 (rs1808593, rs1799983). All subjects were prospectively followed during the median follow-up period of 15.4 years with the end point of cardiovascular death and nonfatal myocardial infarction.
Results
The homozygous G-allele (GG), heterozygous (GT), and homozygous T-allele (TT) carriers of rs1808593 were identified in 60 (2%), 706 (26%), and 1,986 (72%) subjects, respectively. Kaplan-Meier analysis demonstrated that homozygous G-allele carriers of rs1808593 had the greater risk than those without. Multivariate Cox proportional hazard regression analysis revealed that the homozygous G allele of rs1808593 was associated with cardiovascular death and the development of nonfatal myocardial infarction after adjusting for confounding risk factors.
Conclusions
NOS3 gene polymorphism could be a genetic risk factor for cardiovascular death and nonfatal myocardial infarction in the Japanese general population.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Doxorubicin (DOX)-based chemotherapy induces cardiotoxicity, which is considered the main limitation of its clinical application.
Purpose
The present study investigated the potential protective effect of sacubitril/valsartan, an angiotensin receptor–neprilysin inhibitor, against DOX-induced cardiotoxicity in rats and H9c2 cells, and whether the underlying mechanism for any such protection involves its antioxidant activity.
Methods
Male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into four groups: DOX (1.5 mg/kg/day intraperitoneally for 10 days), DOX+valsartan (31 mg/kg/day by gavage from day 1 to day 18), DOX+sacubitril/valsartan (68 mg/kg/day by gavage from day 1 to day 18), and control (saline intraperitoneally for 10 days). There were 15 rats in each group. At the end of the treatment period, samples were collected and analysed. Cardiac function, tissue morphology, and reactive oxygen species (ROS) were evaluated in rats. Serum levels of Malondialdehyde (MDA) and cardiac troponin T were also measured. Mitochondrial ROS production and cell viability were evaluated in H9c2 cells.
Results
DOX-induced cardiac dysfunction was not prevented by valsartan and sacubitril/valsartan in this model. However, the serum level of cardiac troponin T on day 18 was increased in the DOX group (0.046±0.006 ng/mL, p<0.01 vs. control) and significantly reduced in the DOX+sacubitril/valsartan group (0.039±0.007 ng/mL, p=0.03 vs. DOX), but not in the DOX+valsartan group (0.046±0.005 ng/mL, p=1.00 vs. DOX). Regarding the effect of sacubitril/valsartan on fibrosis in rat myocardium, Masson's trichrome staining showed increased intestinal fibrosis in the DOX group compared to that in the control group (1.35±0.07% and 0.49±0.04%, p<0.01) and significantly decreased intestinal fibrosis in the DOX+sacubitril/valsartan group (1.08±0.08%), but not in the DOX+ valsartan group (1.15±0.05%) compared to that in the DOX group (p=0.01 and p=0.15, respectively). The fluorescence intensity of dihydroethidium as a measure of ROD production in left ventricle, which was increased in the DOX group (1.56±0.07), was significantly reduced in the DOX+sacubitril/valsartan group (1.44±0.05, p=0.03), but not in the DOX+valsartan group (1.29±0.06, p=1.00). On day 11, the serum MDA level, which was increased in the DOX group, was significantly reduced in the DOX+ sacubitril/valsartan group (p=0.02), but not in the DOX+ valsartan group (p=0.75). In H9c2 cells, sacubitril/valsartan reduced DOX-induced mitochondrial ROS generation by 25%, which was more marked than valsartan-induced ROS generation (p<0.01 and p=0.01, respectively). Sacubitril/valsartan improved cell viability more markedly than valsartan. Thus, DOX-induced cytotoxicity in H9c2 cells was improved by sacubitril/valsartan, but not valsartan.
Conclusions
Sacubitril/valsartan protected rat hearts from DOX-induced cardiotoxicity in vivo and in vitro by decreasing oxidative stress.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Patients with vasospastic angina (VSA) who are resuscitated from sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) are at high risk of recurrent cardiovascular events. However, there are no recommendations for implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) therapy in the VSA and SCA patient guidelines.
Purpose
This study investigated the prognostic impact of ICD therapy on patients with VSA and SCA.
Methods
The present multi-center registry included 280 patients who were resuscitated from SCA and received ICD implantation as secondary prophylaxis. The patients were divided into two groups according to the presence of VSA. The primary endpoint was a composite of all-cause death and appropriate ICD therapy, including appropriate anti-tachycardia pacing and shock for recurrent ventricular arrhythmias.
Results
Of 280 patients, 51 (18%) had VSA. Among those without VSA, ischemic cardiomyopathy was the leading cause of SCA (38%), followed by non-ischemic cardiomyopathies and Brugada syndrome (Table 1). During the median follow-up period of 3.8 years, 23 (8%) patients died, and 72 (26%) underwent appropriate ICD therapy. The incidence of the primary endpoint was not significantly different between patients with and without VSA (24% vs 33%, p=0.19). Further, the incidence of the primary endpoint was not significantly different among the etiologies (Figure 1)
Conclusions
In a cohort of patients who underwent ICD implantation as secondary prophylaxis, long-term clinical outcomes were comparable between those with VSA and those with other cardiac diseases after SCA. The results suggest that ICD therapy may be considered in patients with VSA and those with other etiologies after resuscitation from SCA.

Abstract
If the prevalence of primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) in patients with symptomatic gallstones is higher than that in the general population, PHPT screening could reveal important clinical implications. We observed that the prevalence of PHPT in these patients was higher compared to that of healthy matched controls.

Excessive gestational weight gain during the week prior to delivery as a predictor of maternal life-threatening complications in preeclamptic women. J Obstet Gynaecol Res 2021; 47:3498-3508. [PMID: 34254415 DOI: 10.1111/jog.14933] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/10/2021] [Revised: 06/21/2021] [Accepted: 07/01/2021] [Indexed: 11/29/2022]
Abstract
AIM To investigate the relationship between excessive gestational weight gain during the week prior to delivery (GWG) and severe morbidity and pregnancy termination among pregnant women with preeclampsia (hypertension with proteinuria). METHODS We compared GWG, laboratory data, and complication(s) between 94 preeclamptic women (preeclampsia group) with singleton pregnancies who delivered at ≥22 gestational weeks and 188 healthy women (control group) with singleton pregnancies undergoing elective cesarean deliveries. The gestational weeks at delivery were matched in the preeclampsia and control groups. RESULTS Among 282 total participants, median of GWG was significantly higher in the preeclampsia group than in the control group (1.6 kg vs. 0.5 kg, p < 0.0001). Furthermore, the GWG cutoff value for the preeclampsia group was 1.6 kg. The odds ratio for morbidity of preeclampsia among the women with GWG ≥1.6 kg at delivery was 12.5 (95% confidence interval, 6.31-24.5). In the preeclampsia group, 47 women with GWG ≥1.6 kg had significantly higher risks of hypoproteinemia, proteinuria, and renal dysfunction than those of 47 women with GWG < 1.6 kg. While, multivariate analysis showed 1.5 kg was a GWG cutoff value for predicting maternal morbidity (p < 0.0001); preeclamptic women with GWG ≥1.5 kg had a significantly higher risk of pulmonary edema than preeclamptic women with GWG < 1.5 kg (odds ratio, 7.77; 95% confidence interval, 1.64-36.7). CONCLUSION Excessive GWG in women with preeclampsia might be a predictor for severe maternal life-threatening complications requiring pregnancy termination.

Constraints on Cosmic Strings Using Data from the Third Advanced LIGO-Virgo Observing Run. PHYSICAL REVIEW LETTERS 2021; 126:241102. [PMID: 34213926 DOI: 10.1103/physrevd.97.102002] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/30/2021] [Revised: 03/31/2021] [Accepted: 05/23/2021] [Indexed: 05/21/2023]
Abstract
We search for gravitational-wave signals produced by cosmic strings in the Advanced LIGO and Virgo full O3 dataset. Search results are presented for gravitational waves produced by cosmic string loop features such as cusps, kinks, and, for the first time, kink-kink collisions. A template-based search for short-duration transient signals does not yield a detection. We also use the stochastic gravitational-wave background energy density upper limits derived from the O3 data to constrain the cosmic string tension Gμ as a function of the number of kinks, or the number of cusps, for two cosmic string loop distribution models. Additionally, we develop and test a third model that interpolates between these two models. Our results improve upon the previous LIGO-Virgo constraints on Gμ by 1 to 2 orders of magnitude depending on the model that is tested. In particular, for the one-loop distribution model, we set the most competitive constraints to date: Gμ≲4×10^{-15}. In the case of cosmic strings formed at the end of inflation in the context of grand unified theories, these results challenge simple inflationary models.

Abstract
We search for gravitational-wave signals produced by cosmic strings in the Advanced LIGO and Virgo full O3 dataset. Search results are presented for gravitational waves produced by cosmic string loop features such as cusps, kinks, and, for the first time, kink-kink collisions. A template-based search for short-duration transient signals does not yield a detection. We also use the stochastic gravitational-wave background energy density upper limits derived from the O3 data to constrain the cosmic string tension Gμ as a function of the number of kinks, or the number of cusps, for two cosmic string loop distribution models. Additionally, we develop and test a third model that interpolates between these two models. Our results improve upon the previous LIGO-Virgo constraints on Gμ by 1 to 2 orders of magnitude depending on the model that is tested. In particular, for the one-loop distribution model, we set the most competitive constraints to date: Gμ≲4×10^{-15}. In the case of cosmic strings formed at the end of inflation in the context of grand unified theories, these results challenge simple inflationary models.

Earlier onset of proteinuria or hypertension is a predictor of progression from gestational hypertension or gestational proteinuria to preeclampsia. Sci Rep 2021; 11:12708. [PMID: 34135442 PMCID: PMC8209055 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-021-92189-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/13/2020] [Accepted: 06/07/2021] [Indexed: 11/25/2022] Open
Abstract
Although gestational hypertension (GH) is a well-known disorder, gestational proteinuria (GP) has been far less emphasized. According to international criteria, hypertensive disorders of pregnancy include GH but not GP. Previous studies have not revealed the predictors of progression from GP to preeclampsia or those of progression from GH to preeclampsia. We aimed to determine both sets of predictors. A retrospective cohort study was conducted with singleton pregnant women who delivered at 22 gestational weeks or later. Preeclampsia was divided into three types: new onset of hypertension/proteinuria at 20 gestational weeks or later and additional new onset of other symptoms at < 7 days or at ≥ 7 days later. Of 94 women with preeclampsia, 20 exhibited proteinuria before preeclampsia, 14 experienced hypertension before preeclampsia, and 60 exhibited simultaneous new onset of both hypertension and proteinuria before preeclampsia; the outcomes of all types were similar. Of 34 women with presumptive GP, 58.8% developed preeclampsia; this proportion was significantly higher than that of 89 women with presumptive GH who developed preeclampsia (15.7%). According to multivariate logistic regression models, earlier onset of hypertension/proteinuria (before or at 34.7/33.9 gestational weeks) was a predicator for progression from presumptive GH/GP to preeclampsia (odds ratios: 1.21/1.21, P value: 0.0044/0.0477, respectively).

Final analysis of a Multicenter Single-Arm Confirmatory Trial of hypofractionated whole breast irradiation after breast-conserving surgery in Japan: JCOG0906. Jpn J Clin Oncol 2021; 51:865-872. [PMID: 33728450 DOI: 10.1093/jjco/hyab024] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/27/2020] [Accepted: 02/15/2021] [Indexed: 11/15/2022] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the safety and efficacy of hypofractionated whole breast irradiation for Asian women after breast-conserving surgery. This is an updated report with 5-year follow-up. METHODS AND MATERIALS Asian women who had invasive breast cancer with clinical tumor size ≤3 cm, pN0-1c and negative inked margins were enrolled. Hypofractionated whole breast irradiation of 42.56 Gy/16 fractions was delivered, and boost irradiation of 10.64 Gy/4 fractions was added when the surgical margin was ≤5 mm. The primary endpoint was the proportion of grade ≥ 2 late adverse reactions within 3 years. Secondary endpoints included early adverse events, overall survival, disease-free survival, ipsilateral breast relapse-free survival, late adverse reactions and cosmetic outcome. Toxicities were evaluated using CTCAE ver3.0. Cosmetic outcomes were assessed using a 4-point scale and CTCAE ver3.0 for hyper/hypopigmentation, breast nipple/areolar deformity and breast volume/deformity. RESULTS Between February 2010 and August 2012, 312 patients were enrolled, and 306 received hypofractionated whole breast irradiation. Median follow-up was 70.5 (range 7.6-88.9) months. The proportion of grade ≥ 2 late adverse reactions within 3 years was 4.3% (90% confidence interval 2.5-6.7%). Grade 2 early adverse events occurred in 38 (12.4%); none had grade 3/4. Five-year overall survival, disease-free survival and ipsilateral breast relapse-free survival were 98.7, 95.4 and 98.0%, respectively. Of the 304 evaluable patients, 29 (9.5%; 95% confidence interval 6.5-13.4%) had grade 2/3 late adverse reactions; none had grade 4/5. At 5 years, 70/289 (24.2%) showed any worsening of breast cosmetic changes. CONCLUSIONS Hypofractionated whole breast irradiation is considered a standard treatment for Asian women with margin-negative invasive breast cancer after breast-conserving surgery.
