Abstract
Although many variants of the parathyroid hormone 1 receptor (PTH1R) gene are known to be associated with primary failure of eruption (PFE), the mechanisms underlying the link remains poorly understood. We here performed functional analyses of PTH1R variants reported in PFE patients-namely, 356C>T (P119L), 395C>T (P132L), 439C>T (R147C), and 1148G>A (R383Q)-using HeLa cells with a lentiviral vector-mediated genetic modification. Two particular variants, P119L and P132L, had severe reduction in a level of N-linked glycosylation when compared with wild-type PTH1R, whereas the other 2 showed modest alteration. PTH1R having P119L or P132L showed marked decrease in the affinity to PTH1-34, which likely led to severely impaired cAMP accumulation upon stimulation in cells expressing these mutants, highlighting the importance of these 2 amino acid residues for ligand-mediated proper functioning of PTH1R. To further gain insights into PTH1R functions, we established the induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) lines from a patient with PFE and the heterozygous P132L mutation. When differentiated into osteoblastic-lineage cells, PFE-iPSCs showed no abnormality in mineralization. The mRNA expression of RUNX2, SP7, and BGLAP, the osteoblastic differentiation-related genes, and that of PTH1R were augmented in both PFE-iPSC-derived cells and control iPSC-derived cells in the presence of bone morphogenetic protein 2. Also, active vitamin D3 induced the expression of RANKL, a major key factor for osteoclastogenesis, equally in osteoblastic cells derived from control and PFE-iPSCs. In sharp contrast, exposure to PTH1-34 resulted in no induction of RANKL mRNA expression in the cells expressing P132L variant PTH1R, consistent with the idea that a type of heterozygous PTH1R gene mutation would spoil PTH-dependent response in osteoblasts. Collectively, this study demonstrates a link between PFE-associated genetic alteration and causative functional impairment of PTH1R, as well as a utility of iPSC-based disease modeling for future elucidation of pathogenesis in genetic disorders, including PFE.

Abstract
Background The purpose of this study was to assess the cortical-level sensory differences between natural teeth with a periodontal membrane and dental implants.
Material and Methods We used functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) to measure brain activity in the cerebral cortex of 12 patients who had both natural teeth and dental implants in the lower molar region. Painless vibratory tactile stimulation was performed on both the natural teeth and the dental implants.
Results Activation was seen in the somatosensory cortex during stimulation of both natural teeth and dental implants. A comparison of cortical activation showed no significant differences between natural teeth and dental implants.
Conclusions These results indicate the possible existence of sensory input to the cerebral cortex via dental implants as well as natural teeth, and thus suggest that may not only the periodontal membrane be involved in the signaling pathway. The data from this experiment may help us for understanding the neural mechanisms underlying natural teeth and dental implants. Key words:fNIRS, natural teeth, implants, brain activity, somatosensory cortex.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate olfactory function in elderly subjects requiring nursing care to clarify its association with appetite and nutritional status. SETTING Facility for the elderly requiring nursing care. PARTICIPANTS The subjects were 158 elderly people requiring nursing care and 37 elderly people not requiring nursing care. MEASUREMENTS Experiment I: Olfactory function and factors (cognitive function, appetite, and nutritional status) that may be associated with it were compared between the elderly subjects requiring nursing care and those not requiring nursing care using covariance analysis in consideration of age. For evaluation, the OSIT-J was used for olfactory function, the HDS-R for cognitive function, the CNAQ for appetite, and BMI for nutritional status. Experiment II: The subjects were the same elderly subjects requiring nursing care in Experiment I, and food intake was surveyed in addition to the OSIT-J, HDS-R, CNAQ, and BMI. A univariate linear regression analysis was performed with OSIT-J as the response variable, and age, HDS-R, CNAQ, BMI, and food intake as the explanatory variables. RESULTS Experiment I: On covariance analysis, the OSIT-J score was significantly lower for the elderly subjects requiring nursing care than for those not requiring nursing care (p<0.01). The mean score was 8 or lower in both groups, demonstrating lower olfactory function in both groups. Regarding factors that may be associated with olfactory function, a significant difference was noted in the HDS-R (p<0.01), confirming significantly lower cognitive function in the elderly subjects requiring nursing care. No significant difference was noted in the CNAQ or BMI. Experiment II: On a univariate linear regression analysis, an association with the OSIT-J was noted for age and HDS-R. Age was inversely correlated and the HDS-R was positively correlated. Factors associated with lower olfactory function in the elderly subjects requiring nursing were age and cognitive function, whereas appetite, nutritional status, and food intake were not associated. CONCLUSION Olfactory function in elderly subjects requiring nursing care was poorer than that in those not requiring nursing care, suggesting that aging and cognitive decline are associated with lower olfactory function. In addition, no association of lower olfactory function with appetite, nutritional status, or food intake was noted in the elderly subjects requiring nursing care.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Recently, there are some reports that hypo-attenuated leaflet thickening (HALT) following transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) is incidentally detected by multi-slice computed tomography. It is believed that valve thrombosis causes HALT, because oral anticoagulation therapy (OAC) is effective for HALT regression. Furthermore, it is reported that d-dimer level increases in patients with HALT, and might be a key biomarker to detect HALT.
Purpose
We sought to investigate the predictors related to increased d-dimer level at 6 months after follow-up TAVI.
Methods
We enrolled 124 consecutive patients who underwent successful TAVI between 2016 and 2018. Study patients were classified into two groups according to antithrombotic therapy resume (OAC therapy or anti-platelet therapy).We set the primary endpoint as the d-dimer levels at 6 months after TAVI. To evaluate the risks of the primary endpoint, we employed a multivariable linear regression model, setting the primary endpoint as an objective variable and patient and clinical backgrounds as explanatory variables. Furthermore, we set the secondary endpoint as one-year bleeding event.
Results
The median age of patients was 83 years old (quartile 80-87). Patients who had taken OAC at 6 months follow-up after TAVI were 29.8%. The median d-dimer level at 6 months after TAVI was 1.3 (1.0-2.2) µg/ml, and OAC group had statistically lower d-dimer level at 6 months follow-up than those in non-OAC group (p = 0.020). Uni-variable liner regression model demonstrated that increased d-dimer level at follow-up had significant relationship with large effective orifice area (EOA) (p = 0.002) and low left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) (p = 0.048) after TAVI. Furthermore, large EOA (p = 0.003) and OAC therapy (p = 0.027) were independently associated with increased d-dimer level in multivariate analysis. Kaplan-Meier estimates revealed that there were no significant difference regarding one-year bleeding event between OAC group and non-OAC group (long-rank p = 0.167).
Conclusions
This study suggests that large EOA after TAVI is associated with increased d-dimer levels at 6 months after TAVI, and OAC therapy might have a potential to decrease d-dimer level after TAVI without increase of bleeding events.

Abstract
High emissions of air pollutants from Northeast Asia are strongly influenced by air quality as well as by ecosystems. This study investigated the spatiotemporal variations in the sulfur isotopic ratio (δ34S) in atmospheric deposition at eleven monitoring stations in Japan from 2011 to 2016 and estimated the amount of transboundary transported anthropogenic sulfate (TRB) deposition using mass balance calculations. The δ34S of sulfate in precipitation ranged from -0.42 to +22.7‰. Sea salt (SS), TRB, and domestic anthropogenic sources (DOM) were the dominant sources of sulfate deposition in Japan. TRB sulfate deposition was largest on the Sea of Japan side, with an annual average value of 1.5 ± 0.3-6.9 ± 0.5 mg m-2 d-1 (36-44%), followed by Mt. Happo (4.5 ± 0.1 mg m-2 d-1; 88%), the Pacific Ocean side (1.5 ± 0.8, 4.3 ± 0.9 mg m-2 d-1; 24-50%), and the remote islands in the North Pacific Ocean (1.1 ± 0.2, 2.0 ± 0.8 mg m-2 d-1; 19-32%). TRB sulfate deposition on the Sea of Japan side was 2-12 times higher in winter and 1-2 times higher in summer than that of DOM. In contrast, TRB sulfate deposition on the Pacific Ocean side was 1.5-3 times higher in summer than in winter due to high precipitation levels. In Tokyo, the annual contribution from DOM sulfate deposition is approximately three times higher than that from TRB. Annual TRB sulfate deposition is lowest at Ogasawara at 1.1 ± 0.2 mg m-2 d-1, and the annual oceanic DMS contribution to sulfate deposition is high, accounting for 1.3 mg m-2 d-1 (20 ± 6%). The contribution of Asian dust was estimated to be 1-5.2 mg m-2 d-1(3-6%), which occurred in a single Asian dust event on the Sea of Japan side.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Despite recent advances in diagnosis and management, the mortality of acute aortic dissection (AAD) remains high.
Purpose
This study aims to develop quality indicators (QIs) for the management of AAD, and to evaluate the associations between QIs and outcomes of AAD in a Japanese nationwide administrative database.
Methods
A total of 18,348 patients suffered from AAD (Type A: 10,131, Type B: 8,217) in the Japanese Registry of All Cardiac and Vascular Diseases database between 2012 and 2015 were studied. A systematic review was performed to establish initial index items for QIs. Evaluation was performed through the expert consensus meeting using a Delphi method. Associations between developed QIs and the mortality were determined by multivariate mixed logistic regression analyses.
Results
A total of nine QIs (five structural and four processatic) were developed. Achievements of developed QIs (High: 7–9, Middle: 4–6, Low: 0–3) were significantly associated with lower in-hospital mortality even after adjustment for covariates in both type A (Middle: odds ratio [OR], 0.257; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.211–0.312; P<0.001; High: OR, 0.064; 95% CI, 0.047–0.086; P<0.001 vs. Low) and type B (Middle: OR, 0.447; 95% CI, 0.338–0.590; P<0.001; High: OR, 0.128; 95% CI, 0.077–0.215; P<0.001 vs. Low). Additionally, achievements of structural and processatic QIs were consistently associated with reduced in-hospital mortality.
QIs and in-hospital mortality
Conclusions
Developed QIs for AAD management were significantly associated with lower in-hospital mortality. Evaluation of each hospital's management with QIs could be helpful to equalize quality of treatment and to fill the evidence-to-practice gaps in the real-world treatment.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
To improve outcome for ruptured aortic aneurysms (rAA), centralization of treatment is potentially effective. However, there is no nationwide survey for the current managements and outcomes of rAA in Japan.
Purpose
The aim of this study was to assess the volume-outcome relationship for rAA treatment using the nationwide claim-based database.
Methods
Using the Japanese Registry Of All cardiac and vascular Diseases- Diagnostic Procedure Combination database, we identified patients admitted to 564 certified teaching-hospitals with rAA between April 1, 2012 and March 31, 2015. Institutional case volume (cardiovascular surgeries per year) was categorized into quartiles (Lowest, Low, High, and Highest) and the odds ratios (ORs) for in-hospital mortality and neurological status at discharge were analyzed for each quartile.
Results
Of 7086 eligible patients, 3925 (55.4%) died in hospital. Mortality rates decreased from 69.4% in the lowest-volume to 43.8% in the highest-volume category (P<0.001). The favourable impact of institutional case volume was sustained even after adjustment for covariates (Low-volume: OR, 0.83; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.65–1.07; P=0.147; High-volume: OR, 0.69; 95% CI, 0.54–0.89; P=0.005; and Highest-volume: OR, 0.55; 95% CI, 0.42–0.72; P<0.001 vs. Lowest-volume). Additionally, other three institutional parameters (increased aortic surgery volume, cardiovascular surgeons' volume, and certified cardiologists' volume) were consistently associated with reduced in-hospital mortality. The rate of coma at discharge was the lowest in the Highest-volume group (P<0.001).
Institutional volume and mortality
Conclusions
Increased institutional volume was associated with lower in-hospital mortality. Establishing regionally tailored systems to transfer patients to high-volume centers is needed to improve outcomes.

Abstract
The impairment of learning and memory is a well-documented effect of both natural and synthetic cannabinoids. In the present study, we aimed to investigate the effect of acute administration of JWH-018, a synthetic cannabinoid, on the hippocampal metabolome to assess biochemical changes in vivo. JWH-018 elevated levels of the endocannabinoids, anandamide (AEA) and 2-arachidonoylglycerol (2-AG). The increase of endocannabinoid levels in response to JWH-018 could be inhibited by co-administration of AM251, a CB1 receptor antagonist. Biochemical analyses revealed that this was the result of suppression of two hydrolases involved in endocannabinoid degradation (fatty acid amide hydrolase [FAAH] and monoacylglycerol lipase [MAGL]). Additionally, we showed that JWH-018 causes a reduction in the levels of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), which is known to modulate synaptic plasticity and adaptive processes underlying learning and memory. The decrease of BDNF following JWH-018 treatment was also rescued by co-administration of AM251. As both endocannabinoids and BDNF have been shown to modulate learning and memory in the hippocampus, the alteration of their levels in response to JWH-018 may explain the contribution of synthetic cannabinoids to impairment of memory.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Colorectal recurrent lesions after endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) often contain severe fibrosis. In such lesions, repeat EMR is often difficult and endoscopic piecemeal mucosal resection (EPMR) has a high risk of repeated recurrence, while surgery is considered overtreatment. Whether ESD can be used safely and reliably to treat such difficult lesions has not been adequately verified. We analyzed the treatment outcomes of ESD for recurrent lesions after EMR. METHODS Among 653 colorectal ESD conducted in our institution between April 2012 and August 2017, 27 consecutive patients underwent the procedure for recurrent lesions after EMR. Treatment outcomes including en bloc resection rate, R0 resection rate, and curative resection rate; complications were analyzed. RESULTS Treatment outcomes of the 27 patients were as follows: en bloc resection rate 81.5%, R0 resection rate 74.1%, curative resection rate 74.1%, median procedure time 47 min (range 10‒210 min), perforation rate 0%, and delayed bleeding rate 3.7%. The corresponding rates for 626 patients who underwent colorectal ESD during the same period for lesions other than recurrence after EMR were 97.2%, 95.5%, 88.7%, 37 min (7-225 min), 0.5%, and 2.8%. There were no differences in complication rates. Treatment outcomes including en bloc resection rate were inferior in the recurrence group compared to non-recurrent group, but no local recurrence was found in all patients. CONCLUSIONS Colorectal ESD is feasible for recurrent colorectal lesions after EMR. The procedure is safe and achieves good treatment outcomes with no local recurrence.

Abstract
Background Combination therapy with oral fluoropyrimidine and irinotecan has not yet been established as first-line treatment of metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). We carried out a randomized, open-label, phase III trial to determine whether S-1 and irinotecan plus bevacizumab is noninferior to mFOLFOX6 or CapeOX plus bevacizumab in terms of progression-free survival (PFS). Patients and methods Patients from 53 institutions who had previously untreated mCRC were randomly assigned (1 : 1) to receive either mFOLFOX6 or CapeOX plus bevacizumab (control group) or S-1 and irinotecan plus bevacizumab (experimental group; a 3-week regimen: intravenous infusions of irinotecan 150 mg/m2 and bevacizumab 7.5 mg/kg on day 1, oral S-1 80 mg/m2 twice daily for 2 weeks, followed by a 1-week rest; or a 4-week regimen: irinotecan 100 mg/m2 and bevacizumab 5 mg/kg on days 1 and 15, S-1 80 mg/m2 twice daily for 2 weeks, followed by a 2-week rest). The primary end point was PFS. The noninferiority margin was 1.25; noninferiority would be established if the upper limit of the 95% confidence interval (CI) for the hazard ratio (HR) of the control group versus the experimental group was less than this margin. Result Between June 2012 and September 2014, 487 patients underwent randomization. Two hundred and forty-three patients assigned to the control group and 241 assigned to the experimental group were included in the primary analysis. Median PFS was 10.8 months (95% CI 9.6-11.6) in the control group and 14.0 months (95% CI 12.4-15.5) in the experimental group (HR 0.84, 95% CI 0.70-1.02; P < 0.0001 for noninferiority, P = 0.0815 for superiority). One hundred and fifty-seven patients (64.9%) in the control group and 140 (58.6%) in the experimental group had adverse events of grade 3 or higher. Conclusion S-1 and irinotecan plus bevacizumab is noninferior to mFOLFOX6 or CapeOX plus bevacizumab with respect to PFS as first-line treatment of mCRC and could be a new standard treatment. Clinical trials number UMIN000007834.

Abstract
The Hayabusa2 spacecraft arrived at the near-Earth carbonaceous asteroid 162173 Ryugu in 2018. We present Hayabusa2 observations of Ryugu's shape, mass, and geomorphology. Ryugu has an oblate "spinning top" shape, with a prominent circular equatorial ridge. Its bulk density, 1.19 ± 0.02 grams per cubic centimeter, indicates a high-porosity (>50%) interior. Large surface boulders suggest a rubble-pile structure. Surface slope analysis shows Ryugu's shape may have been produced from having once spun at twice the current rate. Coupled with the observed global material homogeneity, this suggests that Ryugu was reshaped by centrifugally induced deformation during a period of rapid rotation. From these remote-sensing investigations, we identified a suitable sample collection site on the equatorial ridge.

Abstract
The near-Earth asteroid 162173 Ryugu, the target of the Hayabusa2 sample-return mission, is thought to be a primitive carbonaceous object. We report reflectance spectra of Ryugu's surface acquired with the Near-Infrared Spectrometer (NIRS3) on Hayabusa2, to provide direct measurements of the surface composition and geological context for the returned samples. A weak, narrow absorption feature centered at 2.72 micrometers was detected across the entire observed surface, indicating that hydroxyl (OH)-bearing minerals are ubiquitous there. The intensity of the OH feature and low albedo are similar to thermally and/or shock-metamorphosed carbonaceous chondrite meteorites. There are few variations in the OH-band position, which is consistent with Ryugu being a compositionally homogeneous rubble-pile object generated from impact fragments of an undifferentiated aqueously altered parent body.

Abstract
The near-Earth carbonaceous asteroid 162173 Ryugu is thought to have been produced from a parent body that contained water ice and organic molecules. The Hayabusa2 spacecraft has obtained global multicolor images of Ryugu. Geomorphological features present include a circum-equatorial ridge, east-west dichotomy, high boulder abundances across the entire surface, and impact craters. Age estimates from the craters indicate a resurfacing age of [Formula: see text] years for the top 1-meter layer. Ryugu is among the darkest known bodies in the Solar System. The high abundance and spectral properties of boulders are consistent with moderately dehydrated materials, analogous to thermally metamorphosed meteorites found on Earth. The general uniformity in color across Ryugu's surface supports partial dehydration due to internal heating of the asteroid's parent body.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) is a frequent side-effect of taxanes which play a central role in the treatment of breast cancer. CIPN can negatively influence long-term quality of life, warranting the development of effective prevention strategies. This study investigates the efficacy of frozen gloves and socks (FGS) in reducing the incidence and severity of nab-paclitaxel-induced peripheral neuropathy. Endpoints were evaluated using both clinician and patient reports.
Methods: This is a multicenter phase II single arm trial study of the effects of FGS for advanced or metastatic breast cancer patients receiving nab-paclitaxel (260 mg/m2) every 3 weeks. Patients wore FGS on their diseased side hand and foot for 60 min during infusion. The other side acted as the untreated control. CIPN was assessed using Patient Neurotoxicity Questionnaire (PNQ), PRO-CTCAE and CTCAE at baseline and every cycle of nab-paclitaxel. The primary endpoint was the incidence of CIPN assessed by PNQ (grade C or higher) after receipt of up to 4 cycles of nab-paclitaxel.
Results: Between September 2012 and January 2015, 50 patients from 16 sites were enrolled in this study. Of 50 patients, 27 (54%) received at least 4 cycles of nab-paclitaxel. There was a trend for the incidence of CIPN assessed by PNQ and PRO-CTCAE to be lower in the intervention side than in the control side, although this difference was not statistically significant. The incidence of CIPN assessed by CTCAE was significantly lower in the treated hand (Table).
Conclusions: Among breast cancer patients who received nab-paclitaxel, FGS produced favorable effects as detected by reduced clinician-reported CTCAE grades for CIPN, although the study did not detect differences in self-reported symptoms of CIPN using PRO-CTCAE or PNQ. Clinical trial information: UMIN000007907.
