Abstract
Theories beyond the standard model often predict the existence of an additional neutral boson, the Z^{'}. Using data collected by the Belle II experiment during 2018 at the SuperKEKB collider, we perform the first searches for the invisible decay of a Z^{'} in the process e^{+}e^{-}→μ^{+}μ^{-}Z^{'} and of a lepton-flavor-violating Z^{'} in e^{+}e^{-}→e^{±}μ^{∓}Z^{'}. We do not find any excess of events and set 90% credibility level upper limits on the cross sections of these processes. We translate the former, in the framework of an L_{μ}-L_{τ} theory, into upper limits on the Z^{'} coupling constant at the level of 5×10^{-2}-1 for M_{Z^{'}}≤6 GeV/c^{2}.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is an intractable complication in connective tissue diseases, but the pathological mechanisms responsible for progression remain obscure. This study aims to test whether patient IgG possesses biological activity promoting the migration of pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells (PASMCs). METHODS Cell migration was estimated by lamellipodia formation and by utilizing a Boyden chamber method. The specificity of autoantibodies was established by western blotting, ELISA, and immunocytochemistry. The target antigen was investigated by mass spectrometry. RESULTS IgG obtained from a patient with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) accompanied by PAH was found to promote lamellipodia formation and migration of PASMCs. The IgG bound to a ∼50 kDa protein expressed on the cell membrane, and in the cytoplasm and nucleus. This molecule was identified as enolase 1. Removal of enolase 1-binding antibodies from the IgG fraction, or treatment of the cells with an enolase inhibitor, significantly suppressed the migration of PASMCs. CONCLUSION Patients with SLE may possess autoantibodies to enolase 1 which stimulate the migration of PASMCs and are likely to play a role in the progression of PAH.

Abstract
BACKGROUND With increasing interest in addressing quality of life of older individuals, tests such as the Functional Independence Measure (FIM) are widely used measures of infirmity and burden of care. However, these scales are largely qualitative and especially problematic when assessing movement-based tasks. While effective, reliable analysis of human movement is technically complicated and expensive; an infrared depth sensor is potentially a low-cost, portable devise which may provide a quantitative aspect to clinical testing. OBJECTIVE to assess the utility of the KinectTM sensor in providing an objective evaluation of human movement using an oft measured ADL (chair stand). DESIGN Cross-sectional study. SETTING Community, geriatric day-care center in Japan. PARTICIPANTS Men (n=136) and women (n=266) between 50 and 93 years of age, consisting of healthy (HE; n=312) and physically frail (FR; n= 90) individuals. MEASUREMENTS Subjects completed two trials of the chair stand, conducted without assistance. Trials were timed and recorded with KinectTM v2. Coronal plane angle (CPA) was determined by a line transecting the shoulder-center and waist relative to the vertical axis and was used to assess quality of the chair stand movement pattern. RESULTS Age, height, and body mass were not different between groups. CPA was significantly greater in FR (29.3 ± 8.3°) than HE (19.5 ± 6.5°). CPA and age were significantly related (r=0.148, p<0.01). An optimal threshold for CPA identifying frailty was determined by a receiver-operator characteristic curve with a CPA of 23.1° providing the greatest combination of sensitivity (79%) and specificity (73%). CONCLUSION During the chair stand, frail older adults adopted a forward lean position (increased CPA) compared to healthy older adults. This compensatory posture appears to facilitate torso rotation while reducing lower-limb muscular effort during standing. As such, CPA serves as an indicator of reduced lower-body function in older, frail adults.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
There are little effective treatment strategies for heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) to achieve a reduction of morbidity and mortality. Thus, accurate prognostication of patients with HFpEF could help improve their outcomes by identifying high-risk patients who might potentially benefit from intensive inpatient and outpatient monitoring and early referral for advanced HFpEF therapy. The left ventricular outflow tract velocity time integral (LVOT-VTI) is a representative non-invasive parameter for evaluating stroke volume, which can be a determinant of adverse outcomes in hospitalized patients with heart failure. However, the prognostic implication of admission LVOT-VTI for hospitalized HFpEF patients is undetermined.
Purpose
The aim of the present study was to investigate whether admission LVOT-VTI could predict poor clinical outcomes in hospitalized patients with HFpEF.
Methods
We examined consecutive 535 hospitalized HFpEF patients (left ventricular ejection fraction ≥50%) due to acute decompensated heart failure from the JASPER (JApanese heart failure Syndrome with Preserved Ejection fRaction) multicenter registry, obtained between November 2012 and March 2015. Patients without accessible LVOT-VTI data on admission were excluded. Finally, 214 patients were examined. The primary outcome of interest was composite of all-cause death and rehospitalization due to heart failure.
Results
Mean age was 78±11 years, 100 were male, and median plasma brain-type natriuretic peptide level was 400 (interquartile range [IQR] 223–711) pg/ml. During a median follow-up period of 688 (IQR 162–810) days, adverse events occurred in 83 patients (39%), including 47 (22%) all-cause death, 51 (24%) rehospitalization due to heart failure. The c-index of LVOT-VTI for predicting the composite of adverse events was 0.59 (95% CI 0.51 to 0.67), and the optimal cut-off value of LVOT-VTI was 15.8 cm. Low LVOT-VTI (≤15.8 cm) was significantly associated with higher adverse events compared to high LVOT-VTI (>15.8 cm) (Figure). Multivariable Cox regression analysis revealed that lower LVOT-VTI was an independent determinant of adverse events (HR 0.94, 95% CI 0.91 to 0.98, P=0.005) even after adjustment for pre-specified confounders including age, sex, systolic blood pressure, serum sodium, albumin, plasma brain-type natriuretic peptide and renal function.
Figure 1
Conclusions
Lower admission LVOT-VTI was an independent determinant of worse clinical outcomes in hospitalized HFpEF patients, indicating that LVOT-VTI on admission could be a useful marker for risk stratification in these patients.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
A high voltage in midprecordial leads, termed the Katz-Wachtel sign, is a surrogate marker of left- or bi-ventricular hypertrophy. Asymmetrical interventricular hypertrophy is a characteristic feature of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). In Japan, a school-based electrocardiographic (ECG) screening program was developed for all 1st, 7th, and 10th graders. Our hypothesis is that a combined voltage of RV3+SV3 {V3(R+S)} is a marker to screen pediatric HCM.
Purpose
[1] To develop V3(R+S) voltage criteria in 1st, 7th, and 10th graders at the screening program and [2] to determine whether the criteria are useful for the early diagnosis of HCM.
Methods
[1] Overall, 48,401 digitally stored ECGs from 16,773 1st graders (6-year-olds), 18,126 7th graders (12-year-olds), and 13,502 10th graders (15-year-olds) were obtained after excluding ECGs of subjects with underlying diseases, arrhythmias, and ST/T changes. The prevalence of HCM in children is estimated at 2.9 per 100,000 (1/34,000). The screening points were assumed to be between 1/2,000 and 1/5,000 to exclude the possibility of false negatives. [2] In 12 HCM patients (males/females=10/2) who were diagnosed after 12 years of age (one case was diagnosed at 9 years of age), the ECGs at the screening program of their first grade (at 6 years of age) were retrospectively examined.
Results
[1] The V3(R+S) criteria were 6.0 mV, 6.0 mV, and 5.5 mV for 1st, 7th, and 10th grader males, and 5.0 mV, 4.5 mV, and 4.0 mV for 1st, 7th, and 10th grade females, respectively. The number of subjects (and prevalence in parentheses) selected by the criteria were 2 (1/4175), 3 (1/2981), and 1 (1/6477) for 1st, 7th, and 10th grade males, and 2 (1/4212), 3 (1/3061), and 1 (1/3513) for 1st, 7th, and 10th grade females, respectively. [2] Four of 12 cases fulfilled the criteria. Of these, one suddenly died at 18 years of age, one experienced out-of-hospital cardiac arrest at 16 years of age, and one already had an interventricular thickness of 19 mm at 12 years of age.
Conclusions
These tentative V3(R+S) voltage criteria may be useful for the early diagnosis of pediatric HCM patients, particularly severe patients. The children and adolescents who were screened can be followed at 2–3-year intervals with ECGs and echocardiography. Early diagnosis and intervention including lifestyle modification and medication may prevent them expiring from out-of-hospital cardiac arrest or sudden death. Finally, the criteria should be validated in clinical settings.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Sarcoidosis is a systemic granulomatous disease that affects multiple organs. Among these,the presenceof cardiac involvementis recognized as a determinant of worse clinical outcomes. 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) is a valuable modality for detecting active inflammatory lesions associated with cardiac sarcoidosis (CS). Generally,the maximum standardized uptake value (SUV) is suitable for evaluating disease activity in CS, but this quantitative method had limitations because it does not integrate both volume and intensity of FDG uptake simultaneously. Cardiac metabolic activity (CMA), which is quantitative measures of FDG volume-intensity, could be a diagnostic tool in the evaluation of CS. However, its prognostic implication in patients with CS is unclear.
Purpose
We sought to investigate whether CMA assessed by FDG-PET was associated with long-term worse clinical outcomes in patients with CS.
Methods
A total of 76 consecutive patients suspected CS who underwent FDG-PET between January 2010 and April 2018 in our university hospital were registered. We excluded patients whodid not meet the Japanese Ministry of Health and Welfare 2007 criteria (n=9) and those who received oral corticosteroids at the time of FDG-PET (n=5). Ultimately, 62 CS patients with definitively diagnosed were included in this study.We used a dedicated software to analyze SUV. Cardiac metabolic volume (CMV) was defined as the volume within the boundary determined by the threshold (SUV mean of blood pool × 1.5). CMA was calculated by multiplying CMV by SUV mean. The primary outcome of interest was the composite of advanced atrioventricular block, ventricular tachycardia, ventricular fibrillation, heart failure hospitalization, and all-cause death.
Results
During a median follow-up period of 1287 (IQR 806–1809) days after the first FDG-PET, the adverse events occurred in 12 patients (19%). Events group had significantly higher CMA compared to no events group (83 [IQR 11–330] vs. 354 [IQR 70–577]) (Figure A). Based on ROC analysis, the optimal cut-off value of CMA for the discrimination of the adverse events was 244 ml, and c-index was 0.71 (95% CI, 0.55–0.87). Patients with high CMA (≥244 ml, n=23) had lower LVEF, and higher prevalence of New York Heart Association functional class III or IV, and higher plasma BNP level compared to those with low CMA (<244 ml, n=39). Kaplan-Meier analysis revealed that composite adverse events more frequently occurred in patients with high CMA compared to those with low CMA (Figure B).Univariable Cox regression analysis showed that higher CMA was associated with increased subsequent risk of adverse events (HR 1.47, 95% CI 1.06–2.24).
Conclusions
Higher CMA assessed by FDG-PET was associated with worse clinical long-term outcomes in patients with CS, suggesting that measurement of the volume-intensity of abnormal FDG uptake may be useful for risk stratification in patients with CS.

Abstract
Background
The usefulness of fractional flow reserve (FFR) and instantaneous wave-free ratio (iFR) evaluation has been confirmed in the determination of revascularization of coronary artery disease. When FFR≤0.8 and iFR≤0.89 were regarded as the criteria for positivity, the discordance was noted in approximately 20%, but this cause has not been well established.
Purpose
The purpose of this study was to investigate the patient background and features on coronary CT angiography (CCTA) showing the discordance between FFR≤0.8 and iFR≤0.89.
Methods
The subjects were consecutive 85 cases with 108 vessels in which stenosis of 30–90% was detected at one vessel of at least 2mm or more in the major epicardial vessels and FFR and iFR was performed within subsequent 90 days, among suspected cases of coronary arterial diseases which underwent CCTA. The factors showing the discordance between FFR and iFR (patient background, coronary artery calcification score, high risk plaque features on CCTA (positive remodeling, low attenuation plaque), plaque characteristics by a plaque analysis software using a new algorithm called labeling method (vessel volume, plaque volume, lumen volume, plaque length, maximum plaque burden, necrotic core area, fibrous area and calcium area) were evaluated using logistic regression analysis on per-patient and per-vessel basis.
Results
There were no significant both FFR and iFR positive definite factors on per-patient basis. The lumen volume/vessel volume (OR: 0.93, 95% CI: 0.88–0.98, P=0.0032) (OR: 0.90, 95% CI: 0.85–0.95, P<0.0001),minimum lumen area (MLA) (OR: 0.59, 95% CI: 0.41–0.85, P=0.0006) (OR: 0.64, 95% CI: 0.44–0.92, P=0.0047), the plaque volume/vessel volume (OR: 1.05, 95% CI: 1.01–1.10, P=0.0114) (OR: 1.09, 95% CI: 1.04–1.15, P=0.0002) and maximum plaque burden (OR: 1.08, 95% CI: 1.01–1.15, P=0.0095) (OR: 1.06, 95% CI: 1.00–1.13, P=0.0406) were significant both FFR and iFR positive definite factors on per-vessels basis. Discordance between FFR≤0.8 and iFR≤0.89 was observed in 23 vessels (21.3%) of 19 patients. In FFR positive and iFR negative group (15 vessels, 13.9%), positive remodeling (PR) (OR: 4.38, 95% CI: 1.13–17.00, P=0.0294) was only significant predictor. In FFR negative and iFR positive group, there was no significant predictors.
Conclusions
In both FFR and iFR, only lumen volume /vessel volume, MLA, plaque volume/vessel volume and plaque burden were significant positive definite factors. As for the discordance between FFR and iFR, PR is significant predictor in FFR positive and iFR negative group.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction
Sarcoidosis is a systemic inflammatory disease which can involve any organs. The reported prevalence of isolated cardiac sarcoidosis (CS) varies widely because of the lack of an agreed definition of isolated CS (iCS). ICS was newly defined in the new guidelines for CS by Japanese Circulation Society.
Purpose
We aimed to examine the diagnostic accuracy of 18F-FDG PET/CT and the ratio of iCS in the whole CS by reviewing the patients with suspected CS undergoing the whole-body and cardiac FDG PET/CT scans.
Methods
We retrospectively reviewed 74 consecutive patients undergoing 18F-FDG PET/CT from 2013 to 2018 (mean age 60±14 years, 37 male) without the initiation of corticosteroid. Myocardial FDG uptake in CS was defined as a “focal” or “focal on diffuse” pattern. Systemic sarcoidosis (sCS) and iCS were diagnosed according to guidelines for the diagnosis and treatment of CS by Japanese Circulation Society. In short, iCS was diagnosed clinically when no clinical findings of sarcoidosis in any other organs and FDG uptake in heart were shown in addition to the following three of four criteria: high-grade atrioventricular block or fatal ventricular arrhythmia, structural abnormality, left ventricular contractile dysfunction, and delayed Gadolinium enhancement of myocardium on MRI.
Results
Of 31 patients with extra-cardiac sarcoidosis, 10 already met the diagnostic criteria of sCS before undergoing 18F-FDG PET/CT and 11 was newly diagnosed as sCS after FDG PET/CT. Of the remaining 43 without extra-cardiac sarcoidosis, 18 had FDG uptake in heart. Of 18 with FDG uptake in heart, iCS was diagnosed in 7, and sCS in 3 with extra-cardiac uptake of FDG as well as myocardium. Finally, 24 and 7 patients met the criteria of sCS and iCS based on the guideline, respectively. The sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value of FDG PET/CT for CS including sCS and iCS were 90, 87, 88, 85, and 92%, respectively.
Conclusion
The ratio of iCS on the basis of new guidelines for diagnosis and treatment of CS was 22% of the whole CS.

Abstract
Recipients of organ transplants are immunosuppressed and at high risk of oral infection. Oral diseases are often neglected compared with infections of other organs that typically confer higher morbidity. However, severe local symptoms hinder oral intake, decrease quality of life, and are sometimes lethal. Here we describe a case of a 57-year-old woman who developed recurrent aphthous stomatitis after kidney transplantation; the cause of the infection was complex and included cytomegalovirus, herpes simplex virus, and Candida species. Since misdiagnosis of oral diseases impairs patient quality of life and increases morbidity, clinicians should be aware of possible etiologies of oral infections in renal transplant recipients.

Abstract
We report the first observation of the double strange baryon Ξ(1620)^{0} in its decay to Ξ^{-}π^{+} via Ξ_{c}^{+}→Ξ^{-}π^{+}π^{+} decays based on a 980 fb^{-1} data sample collected with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy e^{+}e^{-} collider. The mass and width are measured to be 1610.4±6.0(stat)_{-4.2}^{+6.1} (syst) MeV/c^{2} and 59.9±4.8(stat)_{-7.1}^{+2.8}(syst) MeV, respectively. We obtain 4.0σ evidence of the Ξ(1690)^{0} with the same data sample. These results shed light on the structure of hyperon resonances with strangeness S=-2.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Nutrition plays an important role in the development of frailty, and the present study examined the association between energy, macronutrient, and food intake and the development of physical frailty. DESIGN Prospective cohort study. SETTING The National Institute for Longevity Sciences - Longitudinal Study of Aging (NILS-LSA), a community-based study. PARTICIPANTS Participants included 166 men and 117 women aged 65-86 years without frailty components at baseline who participated in both the sixth (2008-2010) and seventh (2010-2012) waves of the NILS-LSA. MEASUREMENTS Physical frailty was assessed using the modified criteria established by the Cardiovascular Health Study (2001). All participants were classified as "robust (number of frailty components: 0)," "prefrail (1-2)," or "frail (3-5)." Energy, macronutrient, and food intake was calculated based on 3-day dietary records during the sixth wave. Associations between dietary intake per day and the development of frailty 2 years later (from robust at the sixth wave to prefrail/frail at the seventh wave) were examined using multiple logistic regression analysis after adjusting for sex, baseline age, and other covariables. RESULTS Among the participants included, 36% were classified as prefrail/frail 2 years later. Higher energy [1 standard deviation (SD), odds ratio (95% confidence interval): 362 kcal, 0.68 (0.49-0.94)], protein [16 g, 0.72 (0.53-0.97)], and fat [15 g, 0.69 (0.52-0.92)] intake was negatively associated with frailty development. Higher meat [38 g, 0.68 (0.51-0.92)] and dairy [114 g, 0.73 (0.55-0.96)] intake was negatively associated with frailty development. Higher energy intake was negatively associated with the development of weakness (low grip strength) and low activity, while higher protein intake was negatively associated with the development of low activity. CONCLUSION Increased consumption of meat and dairy products may provide sufficient protein and fat necessary for achieving higher energy intake, thereby effectively preventing physical frailty among older Japanese individuals.

Abstract
The T2K experiment measures muon neutrino disappearance and electron neutrino appearance in accelerator-produced neutrino and antineutrino beams. With an exposure of 14.7(7.6)×10^{20} protons on target in the neutrino (antineutrino) mode, 89 ν_{e} candidates and seven anti-ν_{e} candidates are observed, while 67.5 and 9.0 are expected for δ_{CP}=0 and normal mass ordering. The obtained 2σ confidence interval for the CP-violating phase, δ_{CP}, does not include the CP-conserving cases (δ_{CP}=0, π). The best-fit values of other parameters are sin^{2}θ_{23}=0.526_{-0.036}^{+0.032} and Δm_{32}^{2}=2.463_{-0.070}^{+0.071}×10^{-3} eV^{2}/c^{4}.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) is a well-accepted and less invasive method of feeding tube placement in patients with swallowing difficulties, complications and early death after PEG have been reported. AIM This study aimed to evaluate predictive factors associated with 30-day mortality after PEG, and to assess the utility of nutritional supporting period before PEG in reducing early mortality following PEG. DESIGN An observational study. METHODS We retrospectively analyzed 268 patients who underwent PEG at Sapporo Shirakaba-dai Hospital from 2006 to 2010, using clinical and laboratory data to analyze predictive factors associated with early death after PEG. Then, we prospectively assessed 152 consecutive patients assessed for eligibility for PEG from 2011 to 2014. We assessed the patients' nutritional condition using Onodera's prognostic nutritional index (PNI), and supported nutrition for more than 10 days before PEG in patients with a poor nutritional index (PNI < 37). RESULTS In both univariate and multivariate analyses in the retrospective study, Onodera's PNI of less than 37 was the only predictive factor for early mortality. In the second study, among the 115 patients who finally underwent PEG, early mortality rates improved to 1.7% from 5.2% in the first study. Conversely, 32% of patients with malnutrition who did not undergo PEG died within 30 days. CONCLUSION Nutritional status might be a predictive factor for early mortality after PEG. In patients with poor nutritional status, nutritional supporting period before PEG might improve the outcomes and reduce unnecessary PEG.

Abstract
Using data recorded with the Belle detector, we observe a new excited hyperon, an Ω^{*-} candidate decaying into Ξ^{0}K^{-} and Ξ^{-}K_{S}^{0} with a mass of 2012.4±0.7(stat)±0.6(syst) MeV/c^{2} and a width of Γ=6.4_{-2.0}^{+2.5}(stat)±1.6(syst) MeV. The Ω^{*-} is seen primarily in ϒ(1S),ϒ(2S), and ϒ(3S) decays.
