Amano S, Hirata Y. Perception and Production of Singleton and Geminate Stops in Japanese: Implications for the Theory of Acoustic Invariance. PHONETICA 2015; 72:43-60.

Abstract
The theory of relational acoustic invariance claims that there are stable acoustic properties in speech signals that correspond to a phonological feature, and that the perception system utilizes these acoustic properties for stable perception of a phoneme. The present study examines whether such an invariance exists in native listeners' perception of Japanese singleton and geminate stops despite variability in speaking rate and word length, and whether this perception corresponds to production. Native Japanese listeners identified singleton and geminate stops in continua of 3- and 4-mora words spoken at different speaking rates. Results indicated that the perception boundary is well predicted by a linear function with two variables: durations of stop closure and the (C)V(C)CV portion (with the contrasting stops underlined) of the 3- and 4-mora words. In addition, these two variables were in a consistent relationship for both perception and production of words containing 2-4 moras. The results support the relational acoustic invariance theory.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The natural history of bleeding risk from colonic diverticulosis remains unclear. AIM To identify the incidence of bleeding in colonic diverticulosis patients and associated risk factors. METHODS A cohort of 1514 patients with colonoscopy-confirmed asymptomatic diverticulosis was selected between 2001 and 2013. Age, sex and location of colonic diverticulosis (right or left side, or bilateral) were assessed. The endpoint was a bleeding event, and data were censored at the time of last colonoscopy. The cumulative and overall incidences of bleeding were estimated using the Kaplan-Meier and person-years methods. The Cox proportional hazards model was used to estimate age- and sex-adjusted hazard ratios (aHRs). RESULTS The median follow-up period was 46 months. Bleeding events occurred in 35 patients, and the median time-to-event interval was 50 months. Kaplan-Meier analysis showed that the cumulative incidence of diverticular bleeding was 0.21% at 12 months, 2.2% at 60 months and 9.5% at 120 months. By the person-years method, the overall incidence rate of bleeding was 0.46 per 1000 patient-years. On multivariate analysis, age ≥70 (aHR. 3.7) and bilateral diverticulosis (aHR, 2.4) were significant risk factors for bleeding. CONCLUSIONS This long-term follow-up study demonstrated that the cumulative incidence of bleeding from diverticulosis was approximately 2% at 5 years and 10% at 10 years, and the overall incidence was 0.46 per 1000 patient-years. Bilateral diverticulosis increased the risk of bleeding.

Abstract
In this study we used subject-specific finite element analysis to investigate the mechanical effects of rotational acetabular osteotomy (RAO) on the hip joint and analysed the correlation between various radiological measurements and mechanical stress in the hip joint. We evaluated 13 hips in 12 patients (two men and ten women, mean age at surgery 32.0 years; 19 to 46) with developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) who were treated by RAO. Subject-specific finite element models were constructed from CT data. The centre–edge (CE) angle, acetabular head index (AHI), acetabular angle and acetabular roof angle (ARA) were measured on anteroposterior pelvic radiographs taken before and after RAO. The relationship between equivalent stress in the hip joint and radiological measurements was analysed. The equivalent stress in the acetabulum decreased from 4.1 MPa (2.7 to 6.5) pre-operatively to 2.8 MPa (1.8 to 3.6) post-operatively (p < 0.01). There was a moderate correlation between equivalent stress in the acetabulum and the radiological measurements: CE angle (R = –0.645, p < 0.01); AHI (R = –0.603, p < 0.01); acetabular angle (R = 0.484, p = 0.02); and ARA (R = 0.572, p < 0.01). The equivalent stress in the acetabulum of patients with DDH decreased after RAO. Correction of the CE angle, AHI and ARA was considered to be important in reducing the mechanical stress in the hip joint. Cite this article: Bone Joint J 2015;97-B:492–7.

Abstract
PURPOSE We evaluated patients treated with prophylactic intra-arterial administration of fasudil hydrochloride (IAF) after subarachnoid haemorrhage (SAH). MATERIALS AND METHODS Between August 1998 and December 2012, 92 patients with aneurysmal SAH were treated with IAF for angiographic vasospasm without ischemic symptoms after their follow-up angiography. Patients comprised 50 women and 42 men, aged 24-83 (mean 56.6) years. IAF consisted of 15 mg of fasudil hydrochloride dissolved in 20 ml physiological saline and injected through a catheter during approximately 15 min, after diagnostic angiography. The clinical outcome was evaluated using the Glasgow Outcome Scale (GOS) at discharge and ischemic lesions resulting from vasospasm were assessed on computed tomography (CT) scan at discharge. RESULTS Forty-eight patients underwent surgical clipping and 44 patients underwent endovascular coiling. Angiographic improvement was observed in all patients (100 %). At discharge, 76 (83.0 %) of 92 patients showed good recovery on GOS. Nine patients developed progression of delayed ischemic neurological deficits (DIND) and three of these patients had ischemic lesions on CT scans. No patient had any significant changes in vital signs or any other adverse effects resulting from IAF. CONCLUSION IAF therapy was safe and effective for patients with vasospasm following SAH. Prophylactic IAF therapy may prevent symptomatic vasospasm.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Diverticular bleeding is the most common cause of acute lower gastrointestinal bleeding, and its incidence has recently increased. However, the treatment strategy of diverticular bleeding has not yet been established. The aim of the study was to investigate the efficacy of contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CECT) to determine the indication for urgent colonoscopy to achieve hemostasis. METHODS A total of 124 patients diagnosed with diverticular bleeding between 2012 and 2013 in our hospital were analyzed. The clinical behavior, factors related to detecting bleeding diverticula, and risk factors for early rebleeding of diverticular bleeding were evaluated. RESULTS Clinical behavior: Bleeding diverticula were identified in 23 of 124 (19%) patients and most of them (16/23; 70%) were located in the ascending colon. Hemostasis was achieved in all 23 cases, however, six (26%) developed early rebleeding. Factors for detecting bleeding diverticula: In patients in whom extravasation was detected using CECT, the endoscopic detection rate of bleeding diverticula was 60% (12/20), while bleeding diverticula were detected in only 31% (11/35) of patients in whom extravasation was not detected using CECT (p<0.05). The interval between the first hematochezia and colonoscopy in which the bleeding point was detected by colonoscopy (median 23.5 hours) was shorter than that in which bleeding diverticula were not detected (median 43.6 hours) (p<0.01). Risk factors for short term rebleeding: Using a univariate analysis, atherosclerotic comorbidity, anti-inflammatory drugs including low-dose aspirin, antithrombotic agents, vital signs on admission, hemoglobin level on hospitalization, and extravasation on CECT were not found to be significant risk factors. CONCLUSION The finding of extravasation on CECT is the most important factor for identifying and treating bleeding diverticula by colonoscopy. In such cases, urgent colonoscopy is recommended.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Immunosuppressants such as tacrolimus and cyclosporine are prescribed long-term after orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT) to prevent allograft rejection. Although these immunosuppressants are known to effectively control ulcerative colitis (UC), some post-OLT patients develop exacerbation of preexisting UC or de novo UC. Although aminosalicylates and corticosteroid courses are usually effective to treat such UC, several patients have developed uncontrollable disease and required colectomies. CASE REPORT We have reported a patient who developed de novo UC after OLT to treat liver cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma associated with hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection. Existence of the HBV infection made us avoid to increase the corticosteroid dose or to use other immunosuppressants such as azathioprine or infliximab. CONCLUSIONS In this patient, granulocyte and monocyte apheresis was highly effective in terms of inducing remission of de novo UC. No adverse event was noted.

Abstract
In CaIrO3, electronic correlation, spin-orbit coupling, and tetragonal crystal field splitting are predicted to be of comparable strength. However, the nature of its ground state is still an object of debate, with contradictory experimental and theoretical results. We probe the ground state of CaIrO3 and assess the effective tetragonal crystal field splitting and spin-orbit coupling at play in this system by means of resonant inelastic x-ray scattering. We conclude that insulating CaIrO3 is not a j(eff) = 1/2 iridate and discuss the consequences of our finding to the interpretation of previous experiments. In particular, we clarify how the Mott insulating state in iridates can be readily extended beyond the j(eff) = 1/2 ground state.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS Magnifying chromoendoscopy (MC) and endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) are used to estimate the depth of colorectal cancer (CRC) invasion, but it is not clear which procedure is more accurate. We performed a prospective study to compare MC and EUS. METHODS A total of 70 patients with an early stage flat CRC lesion were enrolled at 6 institutions in Japan and randomly assigned to groups assessed by MC followed by EUS or EUS followed by MC. Results from MC and EUS measurements of 66 lesions were included in the final analysis. The invasion depth of each lesion was measured by each procedure and categorized as mucosal to slight submucosal (depth <1000 μm) or deep submucosal (depth ≥ 1000 μm); measurements were compared with the final diagnosis on the basis of the pathology analysis. All participating examiners achieved a mean κ value ≥ 0.6 for both MC and EUS before this trial. RESULTS MC and EUS each measured the depth of lesion invasion with 71.2% accuracy (correctly for 47 of 66 lesions). MC identified lesions with deep submucosal invasion with 74.2% sensitivity and 68.6% specificity, whereas EUS identified them with 67.7% sensitivity and 74.3% specificity. The differences between MC and EUS measurements did not differ significantly. However, MC required significantly shorter observation time than EUS (361.7 ± 164.5 seconds vs 451.2 ± 209.4 seconds, P = .002). CONCLUSIONS MC and EUS are equally accurate in estimating the invasion depth of early stage CRC lesions. However, neither procedure has sufficient diagnostic accuracy to be used as the standard.

Abstract
We present the case of a 64-year-old male with painful swelling of the bilateral testes and epididymides, high fever, leukocytosis, and an elevated C-reactive protein (CRP) level. This is the first case report of testicular diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, not otherwise specified (DLBCL, NOS) immunostained for multiple cytokines and their receptors, which clearly demonstrates that tumor cells express multiple cytokines [interleukin-6 (IL-6) and granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF)] and their receptors [IL-6 receptor (IL-6R) and G-CSF receptor (G-CSFR)]. The clinical course showed that the reduction in tumor size was accompanied by a corresponding improvement in clinical symptoms and peripheral blood findings. Such clinical investigation may lead clinicians to misdiagnose inflammatory disease rather than neoplastic disease. Recognizing this paraneoplastic phenomenon associated with some cases of testicular DLBCL, NOS is important. In addition, this case suggests that the growth of tumor cells may be promoted through autocrine mechanisms of IL-6 and G-CSF, which are produced by tumor cells. The possibility that these cytokines can be produced by tumor cells and can accelerate tumor proliferation should be considered to be a cause of severe clinical symptoms, an aggressive clinical course, and an indication of the necessity of treatment. Certain cytokines may be used as tumor markers in some cases of DLBCL, NOS.

Abstract
Choriocarcinoma is categorized as either gestational or nongestational depending on its origin. Nongestational choriocarcinoma originated in the trophoblastic differentiation is a rare but an aggressive tumor. This article reports a nongestational case of a uterine endometrial carcinoma with trophoblastic differentiation. A 54-year-old woman with a history of atypical genital bleeding that underwent semi-radical hysterectomy, bilateral salpingo-oophrectomy, and pelvic lymph nodes dissection. Pathological investigation showed that the tumor had endometrioid adenocarcinoma and choriocarcinomatous components. Although a series of multimodality treatments including craniotomy were performed, she died of aggressive lung and brain metastases one year after the primary surgery.

Abstract
The ν1, ν2, and ν3 bands of H2F(+) were observed with a Fourier transform absorption spectroscopic technique in the 3 and 7 μm regions. The ion was produced with a hollow cathode discharge in a F2, He, and H2 gas mixture. A simultaneous analysis of FT data combined with laser spectroscopic data was carried out using the Watson's A-reduced Hamiltonian to determine molecular constants in vibrationally excited states. The effect of the vibration-rotation interaction between the ν1 and ν3 states was found to be small compared with the case of H2O. The vibration-rotation transitions of the ν2 band were first identified and analyzed to obtain molecular constants in the ν2 state, and the band origin was determined to be 1370.5236 (7) cm(-1) with one standard deviation in parentheses. Determined molecular constants can be used to derive the re structure of H2F(+) as re(H-F) = 0.9608(6) Å, ∠e(H-F-H) = 112.2(2)° with the error corresponding to the uncertainty of the assumed vibration rotation constant γ2(a) and the range of the values derived from three pairs of rotational constants.

Abstract
Criteria from the World Health Organization (WHO) are commonly used to diagnose plasma cell myeloma (PCM), but they are complex and require several laboratory parameters. To differentiate reactive plasmacytosis from clonal plasma cell neoplasms, such as PCM, it is important to accurately determine the expression of the cytoplasmic immunoglobulin (cIg) light chain (LC). Through retrospective analyses, we selected the patients with PCM, and analyzed records of 52 PCM patients, who underwent bone biopsies, and final diagnosis of PCM was established according to WHO criteria, and 22 controls. In the present study, all samples were analyzed by flow cytometry (FC) in the side scatter vs CD38 histogram mode, and the CD38-gated plasma cell population was identified. The positive cell ratios of kappa and lambda to plasma cell populations were analyzed. PCM cells were distinguished from normal plasma cells by a cut-off level between 0.80 and 3.3, a sensitivity of 90.3 percent, and a specificity of 81.1 percent. Two-color FC analysis is simple to perform, inexpensive, and clinically relevant data are obtained soon after completion of the FC measurements. It could be one of the helpful tools in the diagnosis of PCM. The correct diagnosis of PCM can be achieved more simply, efficiently, and rapidly by combining this method.

Abstract
We present the case of an 81-year-old man with primary clear cell sarcoma (CCS) of the pubic bone with an associated aggressive clinical course. The patient's laboratory tests showed marked leukocytosis, elevated levels of C-reactive protein and multiple cytokines, including interleukin-6 (IL-6) and granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF). Histological examination showed monomorphic small cells predominantly arranged as a diffuse sheet with morphological features of a small round cell tumor (SRCT). Immunohistochemical staining indicated that the tumor cells were positive for HMB45, S100, Melan A, IL-6, IL-6 receptor, G-CSF, and G-CSF receptor and negative for cytokeratin (AE1/AE3) and epithelial membrane antigen. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case report of aggressive primary CCS of the pubic bone with features of SRCT showing the production and co-expression of multiple cytokines and their receptors. Thus, we suggest that proliferation through an IL-6- and G-CSF-associated autocrine mechanism may play an important role in the aggressive clinical course and poor prognosis of some CCSs showing features of SRCT.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Due to the possibility of lymph node metastasis, surgical resection is indicated for superficial oesophageal cancer with invasion to a depth greater than the muscularis mucosa. Although two magnifying endoscopy classifications are currently used to diagnose the depth of invasion, which classification is more suitable remains controversial. AIMS To compare and evaluate the clinical outcomes of two classifications for superficial oesophageal squamous cell carcinoma. METHODS This cross-sectional study consists of 44 superficial oesophageal squamous cell carcinoma lesions with magnification image-enhanced endoscopy images. Only magnifying endoscopic images were displayed to two experienced endoscopists who independently diagnosed the depth of invasion according to both classifications. RESULTS The sensitivity of invasion greater than the muscularis mucosa tended to be higher in Inoue's classification than Arima's classification (78.3±6.2% vs. 50.0±3.0%; P=0.144), whereas the specificity was significantly lower in Inoue's classification than in Arima's classification (61.9±0.0% vs. 97.6±3.4%; P=0.043). For both classifications, rates of concordance were 90.9% and 84.4%, and κ statistics were 0.81 and 0.66, respectively. CONCLUSIONS Our results suggest that Arima's classification is suitable for general screening before treatment to avoid unnecessary surgery. Inoue's classification is appropriate for assessing wide lesion.
