Abstract
Abstract
PURPOSE: Breast ultrasound (US) is a diagnostic imaging modality that is now widely used as an adjunct to mammography for evaluation of breast abnormalities. In the Breast Imaging-Reporting and Data System (BI-RADS) lexicon, a solid mass with an oval shape, well-circumscribed margins and parallel orientation is classified as category 3 (BI-RADS category 3 mass lesions) . This mass should have a risk of malignancy of < 2%. Surveillance breast US in short-interval follow-up for BI-RADS category 3 mass lesions is an acceptable alternative to biopsy. The surveillance US is recommended 6 month after initial lesion identification and then every year for at least 2 y. However, inconsistent reproducibility for US due to operator dependence is still a clinical issue. The aim of our study was to verify the utility of US using real-time virtual sonography (RVS) - to coordinate present US images with past US images reconstructed from previously acquired US volume data using magnetic tracking system – in a short-interval follow--up for BI-RADS category 3 mass lesions.
METHOD AND MATERIALS: We enrolled 20 women (23 lesions) with more than 24 months of follow-up after classification as BI-RADS category 3 during initial US. US surveillance was scheduled at 6, 12 and 24 months. Three-dimensional assessment of morphologic features was performed while serially checking past US volume data corresponding to the present US probe position. Measurement of the target lesion diameter was performed after the probe was adjusted to include the maximum diameter of a past US image at each visit.
RESULTS: RVS was technically successful in 100% of patients. All target lesions were detected, including two iso-echoic lesions. The mean target lesion diameters at baseline and at 6, 12 and 24 months were 8.2+4.2, 8.4+4.5, 8.1+4.5 and 8.3+5.0 mm, respectively . Statistical analysis using a Friedman test with multiple comparisons revealed no significant difference between the diameters at each time point (p = 0.785). RVS was used to directly compare the US morphologic characteristics and sized of lesions. Furthermore, the RVS data can be reproduced in their entirety for independent review at a later date by using stored US volume data.
CONCLUSION:Our results suggest that RVS is reproducible, operator-independent technique for comparison of US images of BI-RADS category 3 mass lesions obtained at different time points.

Abstract
K(+) /Cl(-) cotransporters (KCCs) are known to be crucial in the control of neuronal electrochemical Cl(-) gradient. However, the role of these proteins in glial cells remains largely unexplored despite a number of studies showing expression of KCC proteins in glial cells of many species. Here, we show that the Caenorhabditis elegans K(+) /Cl(-) cotransporter KCC-3 is expressed in glial-like cells and regulates the thermosensory behavior through modifying temperature-evoked activity of a thermosensory neuron. Mutations in the kcc-3 gene were isolated from a genetic screen for mutants defective in thermotaxis. KCC-3 is expressed and functions in the amphid sheath glia that ensheathes the AFD neuron, a major thermosensory neuron known to be required for thermotaxis. A genetic analysis indicated that the regulation of the thermosensory behavior by KCC-3 is mediated through AFD, and we further show that KCC-3 in the amphid sheath glia regulates the dynamics of the AFD activity. Our results show a novel mechanism by which the glial KCC-3 protein non-cell autonomously modifies the stimulus-evoked activity of a sensory neuron and highlights the functional importance of glial KCC proteins in modulating the dynamics of a neural circuitry to control an animal behavior.

Abstract
Mammalian netrin family proteins are involved in targeting of axons, neuronal migration, and angiogenesis and act as repulsive and attractive guidance molecules. Netrin-5 is a new member of the netrin family with homology to the C345C domain of netrin-1. Unlike other netrin proteins, murine netrin-5 consists of two EGF motifs of the laminin V domain (LE) and the C345C domain, but lacks the N-terminal laminin VI domain and one of the three LE motifs. We generated a specific antibody against netrin-5 to investigate its expression pattern in the rodent adult brain. Strong netrin-5 expression was observed in the olfactory bulb (OB), rostral migrate stream (RMS), the subventricular zone (SVZ), and the subgranular zone (SGZ) of the dentate gyrus in the hippocampus, where neurogenesis occurs in the adult brain. In the SVZ and RMS, netrin-5 expression was observed in Mash1-positive transit-amplifying cells and in Doublecortin (DCX)-positive neuroblasts, but not in GFAP-positive astrocytes. In the OB, netrin-5 expression was maintained in neuroblasts, but its level was decreased in NeuN-positive mature neurons. In the hippocampal SGZ, netrin-5 was observed in Mash1-positive cells and in DCX-positive neuroblasts, but not in GFAP-positive astrocytes, suggesting that netrin-5 expression occurs from type 2a to type 3 cells. These data suggest that netrin-5 is produced by both transit-amplifying cells and neuroblasts to control neurogenesis in the adult brain.

Abstract
Autoantibodies to proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) are specifically, if rarely, present in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patient sera. Even SLE patients lacking PCNA reactivity often show reaction to PCNA-binding protein. Here, immunoreactivity to chromatin assembly factor-1 (CAF-1), an essential molecule for DNA replication and a PCNA-binding protein, was compared for the sera of SLE patients, normal healthy controls (NHCs) and other disease controls, and in autoimmune sera reactive to standard autoantigens, by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), indirect immunofluorescence, and immunoblotting. CAF1 and IRF1 expression in SLE and NHC peripheral mononuclear cells were compared by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction. Serum interferon-γ-inducing protein-10 and anti-double-stranded (ds)DNA antibody levels were measured by ELISA. Increased CAF-1 autoimmune reactivity was recognized in SLE or serum anti-dsDNA antibody-positive patients. Significantly greater central nervous system (CNS) involvement (aseptic meningitis) and serum anti-dsDNA antibody titers were present more often in anti-CAF-1 antibody-positive than antibody-negative SLE patients. IFN-γ positively regulated CAF-1 expression in vitro and was associated with anti-CAF-1 antibody production in SLE. Thus, a novel anti-CAF-1 autoantibody is frequently found in patients with SLE and is a useful biomarker for diagnosis, especially in cases with CNS involvement. Aberrant IFN-γ regulation appears to play an important role in anti-CAF-1 antibody production in SLE.

Abstract
UNLABELLED A 3-year follow-up study on 334 young Japanese females enrolled in a university at the age of 18 years revealed that discontinuation of leisure time impact-loading exercises performed in junior high and/or high school was associated with increased risk of reduction in calcaneus osteo-sono assessment index (OSI). INTRODUCTION Bone strength rapidly increases during puberty and reaches its peak by the end of adolescence. The aim of this study was to determine the lifestyle factors that influence the maintenance of calcaneus OSI in young adult females around the time when peak bone mass is attained. METHODS Annual health checkups including OSI measurements, anthropometrics, lifestyle analysis, and blood examination were performed 4 times on 334 Japanese females enrolled in a university at the age of 18 years. According to the slope of OSI change during the 3-year follow-up, the subjects were grouped into two categories: OSI loss (the lowest tertile) and OSI gain/stable (the second and third tertiles). RESULTS At the baseline assessment, the OSI loss group had higher OSI and height and an earlier menarche age than the OSI gain/stable group. Performing leisure time impact-loading exercise in junior high and/or high school but discontinuing it at university was associated with increased risk of OSI loss, independent of OSI, height and weight at the age of 18 years, weight change during follow-up, age of menarche, energy-adjusted nutrient intake, and alcohol drinking; the odds ratios were 4.1-4.9 compared with those performing impact-loading exercise at university. In particular, duration, frequency, and subjective intensity of impact-loading exercise during high school were positively associated with OSI loss. CONCLUSION Discontinuation of leisure time impact-loading exercises performed during late adolescence is associated with an increased risk of OSI loss in young adult females during the 3-year follow-up period.

Abstract
Stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) is a treatment option for patients with early stage lung cancer. Treatment duration can be >30 minutes per fraction with non-coplanar 3D-conformal radiotherapy (3D-CRT). Whilst this is generally well tolerated, faster delivery techniques are desirable. Volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) allows for fast delivery of radiation treatment. The purpose of this planning study was to compare SBRT with 3D-CRT and VMAT, with VMAT plans generated using both single arc and 3 non-coplanar partial arcs. Ten patients who previously underwent SBRT (48 Gy in 4 fractions) with 3D-CRT were selected. VMAT plans were generated to treat the PTV while limiting doses to organs at risk. Cumulative dose volume histogram (DVH) parameters were compared between the 3 techniques using the Wilcoxon matched pairs test. Treatment delivery time was also assessed. Both VMAT techniques covered target volumes more conformally than 3D-CRT with a mean V48/VPTV of 1.21 for 3D-CRT, 1.03 for 3 arc plans and 1.01 for single arc plans (ρ = 0.005). Dose constraints to organs at risk were met using all three techniques. Mean lung doses were 2.93 Gy for 3D-CRT, 2.87 Gy for single arc and 2.73 Gy for the 3 arc technique (3-arc vs. 3D-CRT: ρ = 0.009). Lung V20 for 3D-CRT, 1 arc and 3 arcs were 3.24%, 2.89% and 2.73%, respectively (3-arc vs. 3D-CRT: ρ = 0.028). Mean time to deliver a single fraction was 13 minutes for 3D-CRT, 9.2 minutes for 3 arcs and 5.5 minutes for 1 arc. VMAT resulted in improved conformality compared to 3D-CRT. The 3 arc technique appears to have the lowest dose to lung although the magnitude is unlikely to be clinically significant. The main advantage of VMAT over 3D-CRT is faster treatment delivery time. Shortened treatment times are anticipated to improve tolerability of this treatment and reduce the chance of error due to intra-fraction motion.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To explore the possibility of a generally applicable tool for the immediate diagnosis of Parkinson's disease (PD) in its early stage, we compared the sensitivity and specificity of an acute levodopa challenge test with that of (123) I-metaiodobenzylguanidine (MIBG) myocardial scintigraphy. MATERIALS AND METHODS A consecutive series of 45 patients with extrapyramidal symptoms were recruited to the acute levodopa challenge and evaluated for improvement by use of the Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale motor scores. Of these patients, 32 of them were also examined by MIBG scintigraphy. The patients were followed up for at least 24 months, and 22 patients were diagnosed as having clinically definite PD. RESULTS The sensitivity and specificity of the acute levodopa challenge test to predict clinical diagnosis of PD were 81.8% and 81.8%, respectively, which were better than those obtained by MIBG scintigraphy (62.5% and 62.5%). In both early- and middle-stages of PD, the test gave better sensitivity than MIBG scintigraphy. CONCLUSIONS Considering that the well-established and frequently referred clinical diagnostic criteria require longitudinal observation for at least 24 months, the acute levodopa challenge test can be used as an immediate diagnostic tool for PD with sensitivity and specificity comparable to those of MIBG.

Abstract
Abstract
Breast magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a method that can detect clinically and mammographically occult cancer foci. For lesions suspected to be malignant on the basis of breast MRI, targeted sonography can help determine whether the lesion is amenable to tissue biopsy using sonographic guidance. However, the reproducibility of sonography as well as interexaminer reliability in targeted sonography is still a clinical issue. Recently, we have developed real-time virtual sonography (RVS) that can coordinate a sonographic image and a MRI multiplanar reconstruction (MRI-MPR) of the same section in real time. Although RVS has been reported to be useful for breast cancers, only a few studies have investigated the size and positioning error between a real-time sonographic image and a MRI-MPR image. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the accuracy of RVS to sonographically identify enhancing lesions by breast MRI. Between December 2008 and May 2009, RVS was performed in 51 consecutive patients with 63 enhancing lesions. MRI was performed with the patients in the supine position using a 1.5-T imager with a body surface coil to achieve the same position as with sonography. To assess the accuracy of the RVS, the following three issues were analyzed: (i) The sonographic detection rate of enhancing lesions, (ii) the comparison of the tumor size measured by sonography and the MRI-MPR and (iii) the positioning errors as the distance from the actual sonographic position to the expected MRI position in 3-D. Among the 63 enhancing lesions, 42 (67%) lesions were identified by conventional B-mode, whereas the remaining 21 (33%) initial conventional B-mode occult lesions were identified by RVS alone. The sonographic size of the lesions detected by RVS alone was significantly smaller than that of lesions detected by conventional B-mode (p < 0.001). The mean tumor size provided by RVS was 12.3 mm for real-time sonography and 14.1 mm for MRI-MPR (r = 0.848, p < 0.001). The mean positioning errors for the transverse and sagittal planes and the depth from the skin were 7.7, 6.9 and 2.8 mm, respectively. The overall mean 3D positioning error was 12.0 mm. Our results suggest that RVS has good targeting accuracy to directly compare a sonographic image with MRI results without operator dependence.
