Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Several ligation techniques for ulceration after endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) have been reported, but none have been established for clinical use because of technical complexity and the need for expensive equipment. Therefore, the technical feasibility of a new ligation method using the double-loop clips (D-L clips) technique without an adhesive agent for ulceration after ESD of the colon was assessed. METHODS Among 35 patients who underwent ESD of the colon in Kushiro Rosai Hospital between April 2019 and September 2019, 26 patients who underwent ligation using the D-L clips technique for the post-ESD ulcer bed were included in this retrospective study. Continuation or cessation of antithrombotic agents was based on the Guidelines for Gastroenterological Endoscopy in Patients Undergoing Antithrombotic Treatment. RESULTS The rate of en bloc R0 resection was 97.1%, the median length of the resected specimen was 3.2 cm (interquartile range [IQR], 2.8-3.8 cm), and the complete ligation rate was 88.5% (23 of 26). Excluding patients with lesion sites in the rectum below the peritoneal reflection, the complete ligation rate was 95.5% (21 of 22). The median duration of the ligation procedure was 20 minutes (IQR, 16-24 minutes). The only delayed procedural adverse event was post-ESD coagulation syndrome in 1 patient. Incomplete ligation was significantly more frequent in patients with lesion sites in the inferior rectal valve/anal verge area (P = .0269). CONCLUSIONS Ligation using the D-L clips technique without an adhesive agent is feasible for closing ulceration after ESD of the colon, whereas other techniques may be necessary for lesions in the rectum below the peritoneal reflection.

Abstract
TPS4668 Background: Combination chemotherapy with oxaliplatin, irinotecan, fluorouracil and leucovorin (FOLFIRINOX) showed improved survival compared to gemcitabine monotherapy for patients with metastatic pancreatic cancer and has become the one of the standard regimens. Despite of its clinical benefit, FOLFIRNIOX needs continuous infusion of 5-FU for 46 hours, which impairs quality of life. In other gastrointestinal cancer, infuser pomp free regimens, in which oral 5-FU drug replace the continuous infusion of 5-FU, have developed as alternative regimen. Therefore, we planned to develop new combination chemotherapy with oxaliplatin, irinotecan and S-1 (OX-IRIS) for advanced pancreatic cancer. We previously conducted the phase Ⅰ study for assessing the safety and determining the recommended dose of OX-IRIS regimen. Methods: To evaluate efficacy and safety of OX-IRIS, HGCSG1803 study staeted as a multicenter, non-randomized, single arm, prospective, phase II study in December 2019. The patients with untreated metastatic or relapsed pancreatic cancer are eligible for this study. OX-IRIS is administered as follows; a 30-min intravenous infusion (IV) of antiemetic, a 2-h IV of oxaliplatin at 85 mg/m2, a 1.5-h IV of irinotecan at 150 mg/m2 on day 1 and day 15 of each 4-week cycle, and S-1 (40 mg/m2) was taken orally twice daily, from after dinner on day 1 to after breakfast on day 15, followed by a 14-day rest, and to be repeated every 2 weeks until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, or patient refusal. The primary endpoint is response rate, and the secondary endpoints are overall survival, progression-free survival, safety, and dose intensity for each drug. A total of 40 cases are planned for registration from 18 institutions in Japan within 2.5 years. Clinical trial information: jRCTs011190008 .

Abstract
INTRODUCTION This study aimed to compare the attitudes towards people with dementia, knowledge of dementia and ageism amongst Taiwanese and Japanese dental hygiene students. MATERIAL AND METHODS A total of 328 students participated in this cross-sectional study. Attitudes, knowledge and ageism were assessed using self-reports. Participants' association with older adults or persons with dementia was also assessed. Primary outcomes included attitude, knowledge and ageism amongst students. Secondary outcomes were the factors related to their desire to work with persons with dementia. RESULTS Data of 175 Taiwanese and 91 Japanese students were analysed. There were significantly more Japanese (69.2%) than Taiwanese (33.2%) students without experience of cohabitation with older adults. More Taiwanese (45.1%) than Japanese students (30.8%) gave a neutral answer regarding their desire to work with persons with dementia. Japanese students scored significantly higher on the attitude and ageism scales than did Taiwanese students; however, the scores of knowledge assessment were approximately the same. Attitude or ageism did not correlate with knowledge amongst students from either country. Logistic regression analysis revealed that the desire to work with persons having dementia was related to ageism and the relationship with these people, irrespective of country. CONCLUSION Although the students had comparable levels of knowledge, there existed significant difference in the attitudes and the degree of ageism between students from Taiwan vs Japan. This finding may prompt improvement of education on dementia, where differences in nationality and lifestyle, including the rate of ageing and family structure, are taken into consideration.

Abstract
Several studies have demonstrated increased pericardial effusion during anti-PD-1 immunotherapy, and treatment in patients who have developed pericardial tamponade is controversial. In this study, we describe a 63-year-old woman with stage IVA lung adenocarcinoma given pembrolizumab as a first-line therapy. After four cycles of pembrolizumab treatment, the patient suddenly developed a pericardial tamponade. Although pericardial effusion was increased, her tumor lesions were reduced. After an emergency pericardiocentesis, she continued the pembrolizumab therapy without recurrent pericardial effusions for three months until the primary tumor and lymph node metastasis progressed. Nine months after the pericardiocentesis, the patient died of progressive lung cancer, but pericardial effusion did not recur throughout the treatment course. This case study suggests that pembrolizumab therapy can be continued with a strict follow-up in some patients with pembrolizumab-induced pericardial tamponade. KEY POINTS: • Significant findings of the study Our patient developed pericardial tamponade during pembrolizumab treatment but continued pembrolizumab treatment after emergency pericardiocentesis without recurrent pericardial effusions. • What this study adds Pembrolizumab treatments may be resumed with a strict follow-up in some patients with treatment-related pericardial tamponade.

Abstract
296 Background: Japanese gastric cancer treatment guidelines (5th edition) recommend irinotecan (IRI) after fluoropyrimidine, platinum and taxanes as a third line chemotherapy. We previously reported that patients with UGT1A1 single heterozygous (SH) had significantly high frequency of severe hematological adverse events (AEs) compared to patients with UGT1A1 wild type (WT) in IRI monotherapy for advanced gastric cancer (AGC). However, it remains unclear that UGT1A1 SH affect efficacy and safety of IRI after fluoropyrimidine, platinum and taxanes compared to WT as a salvage line. Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of patients who received IRI monotherapy after fluoropyrimidine, platinum and taxanes in the multi-institutional retrospective study. From January 2010 to December 2017, 69 eligible patients were registered from 8 centers in Japan. Results: Forty one patients with UGT1A1 WT and 28 patients with UGT1A1 SH were included in this study. In WT/SH patients, performance status 0/1/≥2 was 12/25/4 and 5/17/6, treatment line 3rd/4th or later was 33/8 and 26/2, HER2 status positive/negative was 12/29 and 5/23, respectively. In WT/SH patients, rate of initial dose reduction was 22 and 28% (P = 0.363), median relative dose intensity (RDI) was 82% and 80% (P = 0.309). Of 88 patients who have measurable lesions, the overall response rate (ORR) was 5.7% and 4.2% (P = 1.000), disease control rate (DCR) was 54% and 38% (P = 0.289). Median progression free survival was 3.2 and 2.1 months (HR 0.607, P = 0.058) and median overall survival from initial day of IRI monotherapy was 10.0 and 7.0 months (HR 0.618 P = 0.086). In WT/SH patients, severe hematological AEs (≥G3) were observed more frequently in patients with UGT1A1 SH (WT: 43% and SH: 68%, P = 0.050), although frequency of severe non-hematological AEs (≥G3) were not significantly different in both groups (13% and 25%, P = 0.211). Conclusions: Compared to UGT1A1 WT, UGT1A1 SH status may be associated with poor efficacy and be a risk factor of higher frequency of severe hematological AEs.

Abstract
415 Background: It is important to predict prognosis and risk of adverse events in patients with advanced gastric cancer receiving chemotherapy. Albumin-bilirubin (ALBI) grade is recently used as liver function assessment and prognosticator in hepatocellular carcinoma. Irinotecan is metabolized in the liver, so ALBI score may be useful for predicting irinotecan efficacy and safety. Methods: We conducted a retrospective multicenter study and investigated association between efficacy and ALBI grade in patients who received irinotecan monotherapy between January 2010 and December 2017. All patients had to receive fluoropyrimidine and platinum as prior therapy. The ALBI score is calculated by the equation: ALBI score = (log10 bilirubin [µmol/L] × 0.66) + (albumin [g/L] × −0.0852). As a result, ALBI grades 1, 2, and 3 were developed as follows: ALBI score ≤ −2.60 (ALBI grade 1), > −2.60 to ≤ −1.39 (ALBI grade 2), and > −1.39 (ALBI grade 3). Results: The number of patients with ALBI grade 1/2/3 is 100/68/5. In ALBI 1/2-3 patients, performance status 0/1/≥2 was 37/57/6 and 17/43/14, treatment line 2nd/3rd or later was 58/42 and 21/53, HER2 positive/negative 14/86 and 16/58, respectively. In ALBI 1/2-3 patients, median PFS was 3.3 and 2.3 months (HR = 0.684, P = 0.018) and median OS was 11.7 and 6.7 months (HR = 0.492, P < 0.001), respectively. In ALBI 1/2-3 patients, median treatment cycle which was 6 and 4 ( P = 0.09) and RDI were significantly different was, and RDI was 0.80 vs 0.70( P = 0.027), respectively.Hematological AEs were observed in 88% and 87% ( P = 1.000), severe hematological AEs (≥G3) were 41% and 58%( P = 0.040). Non-hematological AEs were 87% and 86%( P = 1.000), severe non-hematological AEs (≥G3) were 11% and 18% ( P = 0.257), respectively. Severe AEs in more than 5% patients were leukopenia (12% and 18%), neutropenia (23% and 28%), anemia (16% and 31%), and anorexia (2% and 10%).In multivariate analysis, ALBI grade was associated with shorter OS (ALBI 1 and 2-3: HR 1.773 95%C.I. 1.184-2.654, p = 0.005). Conclusions: ALBI grade might be both prognostic factor and risk factor in treatment with irinotecan monotherapy for patients with AGC.

Abstract
This study investigated the existence of sulfonamides and colistin resistance genes among extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL)-producing Escherichia coli recovered from fish gut in Vietnam and evaluated the susceptibility patterns of the ESBL-producing E. coli to relevant antimicrobials. A total of 88 ESBL-producing E. coli isolates were analysed for the presence of the ESBLs, sul (1, 2, 3) and mcr (1-3) genes by PCR. Antimicrobial resistance phenotypes of isolates were determined by disc diffusion. Results showed that: (i) A high prevalence of 94·3% of sulfonamide resistance was observed in 88 isolates. Moreover, the existence of 2·3% of ESBL-producing E. coli harbouring mcr-1 gene were detected; (ii) The phylogenetic types A and B1 were most frequent, and the blaCTX-M group1 and blaTEM genes encoding ESBL were detected in 47·7% of the isolates; (iii) ESBL-producing E. coli harbouring mcr-1 gene exhibited resistance to 11 antibiotics. The existence of mcr-1 and sul1,2,3 genes and the extremely high level of multiple drug resistance in all ESBL-producing E. coli isolates obtained from sampled fish in Vietnam is a major concern. Therefore, it is imperative to monitor ESBL-producing E. coli in the river waters of Vietnam.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
The association between long QT interval and sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) has been clearly established. Environmental tobacco smoke (ETS) exposure is associated with increased risk for SIDS. However, there has been little focus on the relationship between the QT interval and ETS exposure during early infancy. To clarify this, we examined the QT interval with ETS exposure during early infancy.
Methods
Electrocardiographic study was performed in 624 infants (age: 1–5 months) who have been exposed to tobacco smoking since intrauterine life and 1119 age-matched children without ETS exposure. QT data were extracted from the electrocardiogram monitor built-in echocardiogram. Recordings from lead II on the monitor ECG were used to measure the QT interval. The QT intervals of 5 consecutive beats were measured manually. The QT interval was measured on the first, second, third, fourth, and fifth month. The corrected QT interval (QTc) was calculated by dividing the QT interval by the square root of the RR interval (Bazett's formula). The data of the number of cigarettes per day were collected by a questionnaire.
Results
In the total study population, the mean QTc showed the highest peak at the second month. The mean QTc at the first and second month (399±21 and 402±18 msec) was significantly longer (p<0.05) than that at the third, fourth, and fifth month (394±19, 393±21, and 392±22 msec) as shown in Figure 1A. The mean QTc in ETS infants at the first, second and third month was significantly greater than that in infants without ETS (404±20 vs. 397±21 msec, 407±19 vs. 399±17 msec and 404±17 vs. 390±18 msec, p<0.01, respectively), but the mean QTc at the fourth and fifth was similar in the 2 groups as shown in Figure 1B. The QTc increased significantly as the category of number of cigarettes per day increased, with a significant prolongation as of the category 6–10 cigarettes per day as shown in Figure 1C.

Conclusions
The present study indicates that the QT interval during early infancy lengthens by ETS exposure. Further study is needed as to whether QT prolongation associated with ETS exposure is a risk factor for SIDS.
