Usefulness of the Delay Alternating with Nutation for Tailored Excitation Pulse with T1-Weighted Sampling Perfection with Application-Optimized Contrasts Using Different Flip Angle Evolution in the Detection of Cerebral Metastases: Comparison with MPRAGE Imaging. AJNR Am J Neuroradiol 2019; 40:1469-1475.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Contrast-enhanced T1-weighted sampling perfection with application-optimized contrasts by using different flip angle evolution (SPACE) with the delay alternating with nutation for tailored excitation (DANTE) pulse could suppress the blood flow signal and provide a higher contrast-to-noise ratio of enhancing lesion-to-brain parenchyma than the MPRAGE sequence. The purpose of our study was to evaluate the usefulness of SPACE with DANTE compared with MPRAGE for detecting brain metastases. MATERIALS AND METHODS Seventy-one patients who underwent contrast-enhanced SPACE with DANTE and MPRAGE sequences and who were suspected of having metastatic lesions were included. Two neuroradiologists determined the number of enhancing lesions, and diagnostic performance was evaluated using figure of merit, sensitivity, positive predictive value, interobserver agreement, and reading time. Contrast-to-noise ratiolesion/parenchyma and contrast-to-noise ratiowhite matter/gray matter were also assessed. RESULTS SPACE with DANTE (observer one, 328; observer two, 324) revealed significantly more small (<5 mm) enhancing lesions than MPRAGE (observer one, 175; observer two, 150) (P < 0.001 for observer 1, P ≤ .0001 for observer 2). Furthermore, SPACE with DANTE showed significantly higher figure of merit and sensitivity and shorter reading time than MPRAGE for both observers. The mean contrast-to-noise ratiolesion/parenchyma of SPACE with DANTE (52.3 ± 43.1) was significantly higher than that of MPRAGE (17.5 ± 19.3) (P ≤ .0001), but the mean contrast-to-noise ratiowhite matter/gray matter of SPACE with DANTE (-0.65 ± 1.39) was significantly lower than that of MPRAGE (3.08 ± 1.39) (P ≤ .0001). CONCLUSIONS Compared with MPRAGE, SPACE with DANTE significantly improves the detection of brain metastases.

Abstract
We present new constraints on the dark matter-induced annual modulation signal using 1.7 years of COSINE-100 data with a total exposure of 97.7 kg yr. The COSINE-100 experiment, consisting of 106 kg of NaI(Tl) target material, is designed to carry out a model-independent test of DAMA/LIBRA's claim of WIMP discovery by searching for the same annual modulation signal using the same NaI(Tl) target. The crystal data show a 2.7 cpd/kg/keV background rate on average in the 2-6 keV energy region of interest. Using a χ-squared minimization method we observe best fit values for modulation amplitude and phase of 0.0092±0.0067 cpd/kg/keV and 127.2±45.9 d, respectively.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To identify the perceived barriers to dental care for disabled people in South Korea using the revised Andersen's model of access to health care. BASIC RESEARCH DESIGN Cross-sectional analytic interview study. PARTICIPANTS Korean people with a disability residing in residential facilities, or those at home who attend vocational rehabilitation facilities, special schools, or welfare facilities, were sampled from Seoul and non-Seoul areas in 2016 and were interviewed face-to-face. In total, 456 disabled Koreans, or their primary caregivers participated. RESULTS Household income, disability duration and perceived barriers in the dental care system were perceived to impact on dental care utilisation, while the need for dental care services did not significantly explain the use of dental care by disabled people in South Korea. Those with low household incomes were less likely to use dental care services, compared to people with moderate and high household incomes. As disability duration increased, disabled people were more likely to use dental services. Those who perceived the barriers to dental care as higher were less likely to use dental services. CONCLUSION These data suggest that policies are needed to support disabled people with low household incomes. Lowering barriers in the dental care system may encourage people with disabilities to access timely and adequate dental services.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Time-of-flight MR angiography, though widely used after coil embolization, is associated with limitations owing to magnetic susceptibility and radiofrequency shielding following stent-assisted coil embolization. We evaluated the pointwise encoding time reduction with radial acquisition (PETRA) sequence in subtraction-based MRA (qMRA) using an ultrashort TE relative to TOF-MRA during the follow-up of stent-assisted coil embolization for anterior circulation aneurysms. MATERIALS AND METHODS Twenty-five patients (3 men and 22 women; mean age, 59.1 ± 14.0 years) underwent stent-assisted coil embolization for anterior circulation aneurysms and were retrospectively evaluated using TOF-MRA and PETRA qMRA data from the same follow-up session. Two neuroradiologists independently reviewed both MRA findings and subjectively graded flow within the stents (relative to the latest DSA findings) and occlusion status (complete occlusion or neck/aneurysm remnant). Interobserver and intermodality agreement for TOF-MRA and PETRA qMRA were evaluated. RESULTS The mean score for flow visualization within the stents was significantly higher in PETRA qMRA than in TOF-MRA (P < .001 for both observers), and good interobserver agreement was reported (κ = 0.63). The aneurysm occlusion status of PETRA qMRA (observer 1, 92.0%; observer 2, 88.0%) was more consistent with DSA than with TOF-MRA (observer 1, 76.0%; observer 2, 80.0%), and there was a better intermodality agreement between DSA and PETRA qMRA than between DSA and TOF-MRA. CONCLUSIONS These findings indicate that PETRA qMRA is a useful follow-up technique for patients who have undergone stent-assisted coil embolization for anterior circulation aneurysms.

Abstract
A search for inelastic boosted dark matter (IBDM) using the COSINE-100 detector with 59.5 days of data is presented. This relativistic dark matter is theorized to interact with the target material through inelastic scattering with electrons, creating a heavier state that subsequently produces standard model particles, such as an electron-positron pair. In this study, we search for this electron-positron pair in coincidence with the initially scattered electron as a signature for an IBDM interaction. No excess over the predicted background event rate is observed. Therefore, we present limits on IBDM interactions under various hypotheses, one of which allows us to explore an area of the dark photon parameter space that has not yet been covered by other experiments. This is the first experimental search for IBDM using a terrestrial detector.

Abstract
Human Aichivirus A (AiV-A) is classified as a Kobuvirus, group IV positive sense single strand RNA viruses. The first outbreak of AiV-A was reported from Aichi Prefecture, Japan in 1989. AiV-A exists not only among clinical patients, such as diarrhea, but also in a variety of water environments, as its occurrence is reported across a wide geographical range, from developing to advanced countries. For diagnose of AiV-A from water samples, mostly polymerase chain reaction (PCR) system have been developed. However, loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) assay has not been applied. In this study, developed a LAMP method to achieve a rapid, specific and highly sensitive detection of AiV-A. The method developed in this study is aimed specifically at AiV-A. Through a specific and non-specific selection and sensitivity test process for the five prepared LAMP primer sets, one primer set and optimum reaction temperature were selected. A newly developed method was more rapid (approximately 2–8 h), specific and equivalent detection of AiV-A than with the conventional PCRs. In addition, confirm system of positive LAMP reaction was developed by using the restriction enzyme Aci I and Hae III. For evaluation and verification of developing LAMP assay, a was applied to twenty cDNA from groundwater samples. This study proved rapid and specific diagnosis of AiV-A from water samples, and it is also demanded to be applicable to other environmental, clinical and food samples.

Abstract
Ameloblastoma is a rare tumor of odontogenic epithelium, the low incidence rate of which precludes statistical determination of its molecular characterizations. Despite recent genomic and transcriptomic profiling, the etiology of ameloblastomas remains poorly understood. Risk factors of ameloblastoma development are also largely unknown. Whole exome sequencing was performed on 11 mandibular ameloblastoma samples. We identified 2 convergent mutational signatures in ameloblastoma: 1) a signature found in multiple types of lung cancers with probable etiology of tobacco carcinogens (COSMIC signature 4) and 2) a signature present in gingivobuccal oral squamous cell carcinoma and correlated with tobacco-chewing habits (COSMIC signature 29). These mutational signatures highlight tobacco usage or related mutagens as one possible risk factor of ameloblastoma, since the association of BRAF mutations and smoking was demonstrated in multiple studies. In addition to BRAF hotspot mutations (V600E), we observed clear inter- and intratumor heterogeneities. Interestingly, prior to BRAF mutation, important genes regulating odontogenesis mutated (e.g., corepressor BCOR), possibly playing important roles in tumorigenesis. Furthermore, recurrent mutations in the CDC73 gene, the germline mutations of which predispose patients to the development of jaw tumors, were found in 2 patients, which may lead to recurrence if not targeted by therapeutic drugs. Our unbiased profiling of coding regions of ameloblastoma genomes provides insights to the possible etiology of mandibular ameloblastoma and highlights potential disease risk factors for screening and prevention, especially for Asian patients. Because of the limited sample size and incomplete habitual, dietary, and occupational data, a causal link between tobacco usage and ameloblastoma still requires further investigations.

Abstract
We present the first measurements of absolute branching fractions of Ξ_{c}^{0} decays into Ξ^{-}π^{+}, ΛK^{-}π^{+}, and pK^{-}K^{-}π^{+} final states. The measurements are made using a dataset comprising (772±11)×10^{6} BB[over ¯] pairs collected at the ϒ(4S) resonance with the Belle detector at the KEKB e^{+}e^{-} collider. We first measure the absolute branching fraction for B^{-}→Λ[over ¯]_{c}^{-}Ξ_{c}^{0} using a missing-mass technique; the result is B(B^{-}→Λ[over ¯]_{c}^{-}Ξ_{c}^{0})=(9.51±2.10±0.88)×10^{-4}. We subsequently measure the product branching fractions B(B^{-}→Λ[over ¯]_{c}^{-}Ξ_{c}^{0})B(Ξ_{c}^{0}→Ξ^{-}π^{+}), B(B^{-}→Λ[over ¯]_{c}^{-}Ξ_{c}^{0})B(Ξ_{c}^{0}→ΛK^{-}π^{+}), and B(B^{-}→Λ[over ¯]_{c}^{-}Ξ_{c}^{0})B(Ξ_{c}^{0}→pK^{-}K^{-}π^{+}) with improved precision. Dividing these product branching fractions by the result for B^{-}→Λ[over ¯]_{c}^{-}Ξ_{c}^{0} yields the following branching fractions: B(Ξ_{c}^{0}→Ξ^{-}π^{+})=(1.80±0.50±0.14)%, B(Ξ_{c}^{0}→ΛK^{-}π^{+})=(1.17±0.37±0.09)%, and B(Ξ_{c}^{0}→pK^{-}K^{-}π^{+})=(0.58±0.23±0.05)%. For the above branching fractions, the first uncertainties are statistical and the second are systematic. Our result for B(Ξ_{c}^{0}→Ξ^{-}π^{+}) can be combined with Ξ_{c}^{0} branching fractions measured relative to Ξ_{c}^{0}→Ξ^{-}π^{+} to yield other absolute Ξ_{c}^{0} branching fractions.

Abstract
PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to compare mechanical and physical properties of injection-molded thermoplastic denture base resins. MATERIALS AND METHODS In this study, six commercially available products (VA; Valplast, LC; Lucitone, ST; Smiltone, ES; Estheshot-Bright, AC; Acrytone, WE; Weldenz) were selected from four types of thermoplastic denture base materials (Polyamide, Polyester, Acrylic resin and Polypropylene). The flexural properties and shore D hardness have been investigated and water sorption and solubility, and color stability have evaluated. RESULTS For the flexural modulus value, ES showed the highest value and WE showed significantly lower value than all other groups (P<.05). Most of experimental groups showed weak color stability beyond the clinically acceptable range. CONCLUSION Within the limits of this study, thermoplastic denture base resin did not show sufficient modulus to function as a denture base. In addition, all resins showed discoloration with clinical significance, and especially polyamides showed the lowest color stability.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction: Ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) is a bona fide non-obligate precursor of invasive carcinoma. Single cell sequencing studies have revealed intra-lesion genetic heterogeneity in DCIS and shown that progression to invasive ductal carcinoma (IDC) may occur through different mechanisms, including the selection of a subpopulation of tumor cells, acquisition of new genetic alterations or multi-clonal invasion. Here, we sought to investigate the genetic heterogeneity of DCIS, and to document further the clonal selection process accompanying progression to IDC.
Materials and methods: Synchronous DCIS (n=16) and IDC (n=15) samples from 14 patients were microdissected separately, and DNA samples of tumor and matched normal tissues were subjected to whole-exome sequencing (WES; n=27) or massively parallel targeted sequencing of all coding regions of ≥410 cancer-related genes (n=4). Somatic genetic alterations and mutational signatures were identified using state-of-the-art bioinformatics algorithms. PyClone was employed to define the clonal architecture of each DCIS and IDC and infer the clonal shifts accompanying progression from DCIS to IDC.
Results: DCIS were found to harbor recurrent somatic mutations affecting PIK3CA (50%), GATA3 (44%), TP53 (38%), CBFB (19%), PTEN (13%), and AKT1 (13%), which are genes known to be significantly mutated in invasive breast cancers. Despite the genomic similarities between matched DCIS and IDCs, NOTCH2 and MYC were found to be amplified solely in the IDC component of two cases, and PPM1D amplification was restricted to the DCIS component of another case. The mutational signature ascribed to aging (i.e. signature 1) was the predominant mutational signature in the DCIS and IDCs analyzed. PyClone analysis revealed that all synchronous DCIS and IDC studied here were clonally related and confirmed the previous observation that DCIS displays intra-lesion genetic heterogeneity. Evidence of clonal selection in the progression from DCIS to IDC was observed in three cases, whereby a minor DCIS subclone likely constituted the substrate for the development of IDC. In one of these cases, from a patient with a BRCA1 germline pathogenic mutation, we observed a shift from the mutational signature associated with defective homologous recombination DNA repair (i.e. signature 3) to the APOBEC-related mutational signatures (i.e. signatures 2 and 13) in the progression from DCIS to IDC.
Conclusion: Intra-lesion genetic heterogeneity is a common feature in DCIS synchronously diagnosed with IDC. Our findings corroborate the notion that DCIS is a direct non-obligate precursor of IDC, and that clonal selection in the progression of DCIS to IDC may be present in a subset of cases, but is unlikely to constitute the most frequent mechanism of progression.

Abstract
The extent of epidural anaesthesia and pattern of spread of contrast medium, using different injection techniques, has not been well documented. Therefore, in this prospective, randomized, double-blind study, the extent of anaesthesia and pattern of spread of contrast medium following an epidural bolus injection, via either a Tuohy needle or an epidural catheter, were compared. The study had two parts. In the first, 59 of 79 patients scheduled for a lower extremity operation under epidural anaesthesia were randomly allocated to one of the two groups. Anaesthesia was achieved with an epidural injection of 10 to 15 ml (including a 3 ml test dose) of 0.75% ropivacaine and fentanyl 25 μg via either a Tuohy needle (Group N, n=31) or a catheter (Group C, n=28). The level of sensory anaesthesia was recorded. In the second part, the remaining 20 patients were randomized to initially receive 5 ml of contrast medium via either a Tuohy needle (Group NE, n=10) or a catheter (Group CE, n=10). The extent of spread was recorded radiologically. Unilateral or missed blocks and additional dose requirement were absent in Groups N and C. No differences were found in the extent of sensory anaesthesia or the spread of contrast medium. Twenty per cent of catheter tips lay outside the lateral margins of the vertebral bodies. We found that an epidural bolus injection, via either a Tuohy needle or a catheter, made no difference in regard to spread of local anaesthetic or contrast medium in the epidural space.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study aimed to assess the effect of non-thermal plasma on the shear bond strength of resin cements to polyetherketoneketone (PEKK) in comparison to other surface treatment methods. MATERIALS AND METHODS Eighty PEKK discs were subjected to different surface treatments: (1) Untreated (UT); (2) Non-thermal plasma (NTP); (3) Sandblasting with 50 µm Al2O3 particles (SB); and (4) Sandblasting + Non-thermal plasma (SB+NTP). After each surface treatment, the contact angle was measured. Surface conditioning with Visio.Link was applied in all groups after pre-treatment. RelyX Unicem resin cement was bonded onto the PEKK specimens. After fabrication of the specimens, half of each group (n=10) was initially tested, while the other half was subjected to thermocycling (5℃ to 55℃ at 10,000 cycles). Shear bond strength (SBS) testing was performed using a universal testing machine, and failure modes were assessed using stereomicroscopy. The SBS results were analyzed statistically using one-way ANOVA followed by Tukey's post hoc test. Independent t-test was used to examine the effect of thermocycling (P<.05). RESULTS The highest SBS values with or without thermocycling were observed with PEKK specimens that were treated with SB+NTP followed by the SB group. The lowest SBS results were observed in the UT groups. CONCLUSION The shear bond strength between PEKK and resin cements was improved using non-thermal plasma treatment in combination with sandblasting.

[PMID: 30370027 PMCID: PMC6202434 DOI: 10.4047/jap.2018.10.5.361] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/28/2017] [Revised: 07/05/2018] [Accepted: 08/22/2018] [Indexed: 01/17/2023] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of relining materials on the flexural strength of relined thermoplastic denture base resins (TDBRs). MATERIALS AND METHODS For shear bond strength testing, 120 specimens were fabricated using four TDBRs (EstheShot-Bright, Acrytone, Valplast, Weldenz) that were bonded with three autopolymerizing denture relining resins (ADRRs: Vertex Self-Curing, Tokuyama Rebase, Ufi Gel Hard) with a bond area of 6.0 mm in diameter and were assigned to each group (n=10). For flexural strength testing, 120 specimens measuring 64.0×10.0×3.3 mm (ISO-1567:1999) were fabricated using four TDBRs and three ADRRs and were assigned to each group (n=10). The thickness of the specimens measured 2.0 mm of TDBR and 1.3 mm of ADRR. Forty specimens using four TDBRs and 30 specimens using ADRRs served as the control. All specimens were tested on a universal testing machine. For statistical analysis, Analysis of variance (ANOVA) with Tukey's test as post hoc and Spearman's correlation coefficient analysis (P=.05) were performed. RESULTS Acry-Tone showed the highest shear bond strength, while Weldenz demonstrated the lowest bond strength between TDBR and ADRRs compared to other groups. EstheShot-Bright exhibited the highest flexural strength, while Weldenz showed the lowest flexural strength. Relined EstheShot-Bright demonstrated the highest flexural strength and relined Weldenz exhibited the lowest flexural strength (P<.05). Flexural strength of TDBRs (P=.001) and shear bond strength (P=.013) exhibited a positive correlation with the flexural strength of relined TDBRs. CONCLUSION The flexural strength of relined TDBRs was affected by the flexural strength of the original denture base resins and bond strength between denture base resins and relining materials.

Abstract
This study investigated the effects of irradiance and exposure duration on dual-cured resin cements irradiated through ceramic restorative materials. A single light-curing unit was calibrated to three different irradiances (500, 1000, and 1500 mW/cm2) and irradiated to three different attenuating materials (transparent acryl, lithium disilicate, zirconia) with 1-mm thicknesses for 20 or 60 seconds. The changes in irradiance and temperature were measured with a radiometer (or digital thermometer) under the attenuating materials. The degree of conversion (DC) of dual-cure resin cement after irradiation at different irradiances and exposure durations was measured with Fourier transform near infrared spectroscopy. Two-way analysis of variance revealed that irradiance ( p<0.001) and exposure duration ( p<0.001) significantly affected temperature and DC. All groups showed higher DCs with increased exposure times ( p<0.05), but there were no statistically significant differences between the groups irradiated with 1000 mW/cm2 and 1500 mW/cm2 ( p>0.05). Higher-intensity irradiances yielded higher temperatures ( p<0.05), but exposure time did not affect temperature when materials were irradiated at 500 mW/cm2 ( p>0.05).

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE A small subset of primary central nervous system lymphomas exhibits high cerebral blood volume, which is indistinguishable from that in glioblastoma on dynamic susceptibility contrast MR imaging. Our study aimed to test whether estimates of combined perfusion and vascular permeability metrics derived from DSC-MR imaging can improve the diagnostic performance in differentiating hypervascular primary central nervous system lymphoma from glioblastoma. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 119 patients (with 30 primary central nervous system lymphomas and 89 glioblastomas) exhibited hypervascular foci using the reference method of leakage-corrected CBV (reference-normalized CBV). An alternative postprocessing method used the tissue residue function to calculate vascular permeability (extraction fraction), leakage-corrected CBV, cerebral blood flow, and mean transit time. Parameters were compared using Mann-Whitney U tests, and the diagnostic performance to distinguish primary central nervous system lymphoma from glioblastoma was calculated using the area under the curve from the receiver operating characteristic curve and was cross-validated with bootstrapping. RESULTS Hypervascular primary central nervous system lymphoma showed similar leakage-corrected normalized CBV and leakage-corrected CBV compared with glioblastoma (P > .05); however, primary central nervous system lymphoma exhibited a significantly higher extraction fraction (P < .001) and CBF (P = .01) and shorter MTT (P < .001) than glioblastoma. The extraction fraction showed the highest diagnostic performance (the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve [AUC], 0.78; 95% confidence interval, 0.69-0.85) for distinguishing hypervascular primary central nervous system lymphoma from glioblastoma, with a significantly higher performance than both CBV (AUC, 0.53-0.59, largest P = .02) and CBF (AUC, 0.72) and MTT (AUC, 0.71). CONCLUSIONS Estimation of vascular permeability with DSC-MR imaging further characterizes hypervascular primary central nervous system lymphoma and improves diagnostic performance in glioblastoma differentiation.

Abstract
Lupus nephritis (LN) is a major complication of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Conventional biomarkers for assessing renal disease activity are imperfect in predicting clinical outcomes associated with LN. The aim of this study is to identify urinary protein biomarkers that reliably reflect the disease activity or predict clinical outcomes. A quantitative proteomic analysis was performed to identify protein biomarker candidates that can differentiate between SLE patients with and without LN. Selected biomarker candidates were further verified by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay using urine samples from a larger cohort of SLE patients ( n = 121) to investigate their predictive values for LN activity measure. Furthermore, the association between urinary levels of a selected panel of potential biomarkers and prognosis of LN was assessed with a four-year follow-up study of renal outcomes. Urinary vitamin D-binding protein (VDBP), transthyretin (TTR), retinol binding protein 4 (RBP4), and prostaglandin D synthase (PTGDS) were significantly elevated in SLE patients with LN, especially in patients with active LN ( n = 21). Among them, VDBP well correlated with severity of proteinuria (rho = 0.661, p < 0.001) and renal SLE Disease Activity Index (renal SLEDAI) (rho = 0.520, p < 0.001). In the four-year follow-up, VDBP was a significant risk factor (hazard ratio 9.627, 95% confidence interval 1.698 to 54.571, p = 0.011) for the development of proteinuric flare in SLE patients without proteinuria ( n = 100) after adjustments for multiple confounders. Urinary VDBP correlated with proteinuria and renal SLEDAI, and predicted the development of proteinuria.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Several studies have demonstrated that 11C-methionine positron-emission tomography provides information on prognosis. PURPOSE We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis of the prognostic value of the metabolic and volumetric parameters of 11C-methionine-PET for gliomas. DATA SOURCES A systematic search was performed using the following combination of keywords: "methionine," "PET," "glioma," and "prognosis." STUDY SELECTION The inclusion criteria were the use of 11C-methionine-PET as an imaging tool, studies limited to gliomas, studies including metabolic parameters (tumor-to-normal ratio) and/or volumetric parameters (metabolic tumor volume), and studies reporting survival data. The electronic search first identified 181 records, and 14 studies were selected. DATA ANALYSIS Event-free survival and overall survival were the outcome measures of interest. The effect of the tumor-to-normal ratio and metabolic tumor volume on survival was determined by the effect size of the hazard ratio. Hazard ratios were extracted directly from each study when provided or determined by analyzing the Kaplan-Meier curves. DATA SYNTHESIS The combined hazard ratios of the tumor-to-normal ratio for event-free survival was 1.74 with no significance and that of the tumor-to-normal ratio for overall survival was 2.02 with significance. The combined hazard ratio of the metabolic tumor volume for event-free survival was 2.72 with significance and that of the metabolic tumor volume for overall survival was 3.50 with significance. LIMITATIONS The studies selected were all retrospective, and there were only 4 studies involving the metabolic tumor volume. CONCLUSIONS The present meta-analysis of 11C-methionine-PET suggests that the tumor-to-normal ratio for overall survival and the metabolic tumor volume for event-free survival and overall survival are significant prognostic factors for patients with gliomas.

Abstract
The therapeutic effect of probiotics in atopic dermatitis (AD) remains controversial and varies according to the individual patient. We aimed to identify a population of AD patients with a good clinical response to probiotic treatment. We recruited 76 children with a median age of 7.1 years who suffered from moderate to severe AD. After a 2-week washout period, all patients were given Lactobacillus plantarum CJLP133 at a dosage of 1×1010 colony-forming units once a day for 12 weeks. We measured eosinophil counts in the peripheral blood, the proportion of CD4+CD25+Foxp3+ regulatory T (Treg) cells in CD4+ T cells, serum total immunoglobulin E (IgE) levels, and specific IgE against common allergens before the start of the treatment (T1) and at discontinuation (T2). Responders were defined as patients with at least a 30% reduction in the SCORing of AD (SCORAD) index after treatment. There were 36 responders and 40 non-responders after probiotic treatment. The median SCORAD was reduced from 29.5 (range 20.6-46.3) at T1 to 16.4 (range 6.3-30.8) at T2 in the responder group (P<0.001). In multivariable logistic regression analysis, a good clinical response was significantly associated with high total IgE levels (aOR 5.1, 95% CI 1.1-23.6), increased expression of transforming growth factor (TGF)-β (aOR 4.6, 95% CI 1.3-15.9), and a high proportion of Treg cells in CD4+ T cells (aOR 3.7, 95% CI 1.1-12.7) at T1. In the responder group, the proportion of Treg cells was significantly increased after 12 weeks of treatment (P=0.004), while TGF-β mRNA expression was decreased (P=0.017). Our results suggest that a subgroup of patients with a specific AD phenotype showing an immunologically active state (high total IgE, increased expression of TGF-β, high numbers of Treg cells) may benefit from probiotic treatment with L. plantarum CJLP133.
