Abstract
The objective of this study was to investigate the accuracy of fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) and biopsy for the clinical diagnosis of minor salivary gland tumours (MSGTs). This retrospective study of 32 MSGT cases was conducted over a 5-year period. Clinical features including age, sex, and location of the tumour were obtained from the patient clinical records. All cases were also assessed histologically according to the 2017 World Health Organization Classification of Head and Neck Tumours. The results of FNAC and biopsy were correlated with those of histopathology, and their sensitivity, specificity, and diagnostic efficacy were calculated using histopathology as the gold standard. Eighteen malignant MSGTs (56.3%) and 14 benign MSGTs (43.8%) were diagnosed by pathological diagnosis. The most common malignant tumour was mucoepidermoid carcinoma (seven cases, 38.9%). Most benign cases were pleomorphic adenomas (13 cases, 92.9%). FNAC was performed for 23 cases and biopsy for 13 cases. The sensitivity and specificity of FNAC were 66.7% and 91.0%, respectively, while those of biopsy were 90.0% and 100.0%, respectively. Although FNAC is a minimally invasive and cost-effective procedure, it is less accurate than biopsy in the assessment of MSGTs. Repeated FNAC or biopsy should be considered in negative and unsatisfactory FNAC cases.

Abstract
Bile acids are metabolites of cholesterol that facilitate lipid digestion and absorption in the small bowel. Bile acids work as agonists of receptors to regulate their own metabolism. Bile acids also regulate other biological systems such as sugar metabolism, intestinal multidrug resistance, and adaptive immunity. However, numerous physiological roles of bile acids remain undetermined. In this study, we solved the crystal structure of human serine hydroxymethyltransferase (hSHMT) in complex with an endogenous secondary bile acid glycine conjugate. The specific interaction between hSHMT and the ligand was demonstrated using mutational analyses, biophysical measurements, and structure-activity relationship studies, suggesting that secondary bile acid conjugates may act as modulators of SHMT activity. The crystal structures of hSHMT in complex with secondary bile acid glycine conjugate Specific interactions between hSHMT and secondary bile acid conjugate were validated Biological role of bile acids as modulators for one-carbon metabolism is suggested

Abstract
Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) establishes lifelong latent infection in the majority of healthy individuals, while it is a causative agent for various diseases, including some malignancies. Recent high-throughput sequencing results indicate that there are substantial levels of viral genome heterogeneity among different EBV strains. However, the extent of EBV strain variation among asymptomatically infected individuals remains elusive. Here, we present a streamlined experimental strategy to clone and sequence EBV genomes derived from human tonsillar tissues, which are the reservoirs of asymptomatic EBV infection. Complete EBV genome sequences, including those of repetitive regions, were determined for seven tonsil-derived EBV strains. Phylogenetic analyses based on the whole viral genome sequences of worldwide non-tumour-derived EBV strains revealed that Asian EBV strains could be divided into several distinct subgroups. EBV strains derived from nasopharyngeal carcinoma-endemic areas constitute different subgroups from a subgroup of EBV strains from non-endemic areas, including Japan. The results could be consistent with biased regional distribution of EBV-associated diseases depending on the different EBV strains colonizing different regions in Asian countries.

Abstract
AIMS Diabetic nephropathy, a pathologically diagnosed microvascular complication of diabetes, is a strong risk factor for cardiovascular events, which mainly involve arteries larger than those affected in diabetic nephropathy. However, the association between diabetic nephropathy pathological findings and cardiovascular events has not been well studied. We aimed to investigate whether the pathological findings in diabetic nephropathy are closely associated with cardiovascular event development. METHODS This retrospective cohort study analysed 377 people with type 2 diabetes and biopsy-proven diabetic nephropathy, with a median follow-up of 5.9 years (interquartile range 2.0 to 13.5). We investigated how cardiovascular events were impacted by two vascular diabetic nephropathy lesions, namely arteriolar hyalinosis and arterial intimal thickening, and by glomerular and interstitial lesions. RESULTS Of the 377 people with diabetic nephropathy, 331 (88%) and 295 (78%) had arteriolar hyalinosis and arterial intimal thickening, respectively. During the entire follow-up period, those with arteriolar hyalinosis had higher cardiovascular event rates in the crude Kaplan-Meier analysis than those without these lesions (P = 0.005, log-rank test). When fully adjusted for clinically relevant confounders, arteriolar hyalinosis independently predicted cardiovascular events [hazard ratio (HR) 1.99; 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.12, 3.86], but we did not find any relationship between arterial intimal thickening and cardiovascular events (HR 0.89; 95% CI 0.60, 1.37). Additionally, neither glomerular nor interstitial lesions were independently associated with cardiovascular events in the fully adjusted model. CONCLUSIONS Arteriolar hyalinosis, but not intimal thickening of large arteries, was strongly associated with cardiovascular events in people with diabetic nephropathy.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Elevated serum uric acid level was reportedly associated with greater coronary lipid plaque. Xanthine oxidoreductase (XOR) is a rate-limiting enzyme in purine metabolism and believed to play important roles in coronary atherosclerosis. However, the relation of XOR to coronary lipid plaque and its mechanism are unclear.
Purpose
The aim of this study was to assess the impact of XOR on coronary lipid plaque and the associated factors with XOR in coronary artery disease (CAD).
Methods
Patients with stable CAD undergoing elective percutaneous coronary intervention under near-infrared spectroscopy intravascular ultrasound (NIRS-IVUS) guidance were prospectively enrolled. They were divided into three groups according to serum XOR activities; low, normal, and high. Coronary lipid core plaques in non-target vessels were evaluated by NIRS-IVUS with lipid core burden index (LCBI) and a maximum LCBI in 4 mm (maxLCBI4mm). Systemic endothelial function and inflammation were assessed with reactive hyperemia index (RHI) and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein, neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio, and platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio.
Results
Of 68 patients, 26, 31, and 11 were classified as low, normal, and high XOR activity groups. LCBI (474.4±171.6 vs. 347.4±181.6 vs. 294.0±155.9, p=0.04) and maxLCBI4mm (102.1±56.5 vs. 65.6±48.5 vs. 55.6±37.8, p=0.04) were significantly higher in high XOR group than in normal and low XOR groups. Although RHI was significantly correlated with body mass index, diabetes, current smoking, and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, no relation was found between XOR activity and RHI (Figure). There were also no relations between XOR activity and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein, neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio, or platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (Figure).
Conclusion
Elevated XOR activity was associated with greater coronary lipid plaque in patients with stable CAD, without significant relations to systemic endothelial function and inflammation.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
The Controlling Nutritional Status (CONUT) score is well known as a marker of nutritional status. Previous studies have reported that CONUT score could predict a prognosis of acute or chronic heart failure, and infective endocarditis. Takotsubo syndrome (TTS) is said to have a relatively good prognosis, but some patients have a bad turning point in hospital stay. Lower systolic blood pressure on admission, history of diabetes mellitus, and β-blocker use before admission have been reported as predictors of in-hospital cardiac complications. However, the prognostic utility of CONUT score in TTS is unclear. The aim of study was to evaluate duration of hospital stay and short-term clinical events with CONUT score in TTS.
Methods
Seventy-nine TTS patients who were admitted to 3 medical centers in Japan between January 2011 and October 2019 were enrolled. The average age was 71.8±11.5 years old, and the prevalence of female sex was 81%. The CONUT score was calculated based on the serum albumin, total lymphocyte and total cholesterol on admission. We retrospectively investigated the association between the short-term clinical events and CONUT score. The duration of hospital stay was defined as the primely outcome, and all cause death and congestive heart failure in hospital stay as the secondary outcome.
Results
The average CONUT score was 3.7±3.0. A positive correlation was found between the CONUT score and the duration of hospital stay (r=0.56, p<0.01). Twenty (25.3%) patients suffered from clinical events (all cause death and congestive heart failure in hospital). Those patients with clinical events had significantly higher the CONUT score than those without (all cause death, 7.2±2.6 vs. 3.5±2.9, p<0.01, congestive heart failure, 5.3±3.4 vs. 3.3±2.8, p=0.02, composite clinical events, 5.8±3.2 vs. 3.0±2.6, p<0.01). ROC curve analysis revealed that the optimal cut-off value of the CONUT score for the prediction of composite clinical events was 4.0 (AUC: 0.75, sensitivity: 80%, Specificity: 64%). The patients with CONUT score of 4 or more (high COUNT score) were more prevalent in patients who experienced composite clinical events than in those who didn't (80% vs. 35.6%, p<0.01). The patients with a high CONUT score had a longer hospital stay and higher occurrence of composite clinical events than those with CONUT score less than 4 (respectively, 27.2±19.1 days vs. 13.8±8.3 days, p<0.01, 25.3% vs. 9.5%, p<0.01).
Conclusions
The CONUT score in TTS patients was strongly associated with the duration of hospital stay and clinical events in hospital. The CONUT score is a simple indicator that can be calculated with only three factors. Therefore, the CONUT score on admission may be useful for a predictor of short-term clinical events in TTS patients.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction
Early identification of high-risk patients is the cornerstone of managing patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Age Shock index (ASI; age multiplied by the ratio of heart rate/systolic blood pressure) has been reported to be similar to Global Registry of Acute Coronary Events (GRACE) risk score for predicting mortality in patients with AMI. However, prognostic impacts of prehospital ASI (pre-ASI) in patients with AMI remain unknown.
Methods
We analyzed of 2578 AMI patients who underwent emergency primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) from January 2013 to March 2018, using data from Mie ACS Registry, a prospective and multicenter registry in Japan. Pre-ASI was recorded by emergency medical services at the first contact with the patient before admission, and in-hospital ASI (in-ASI) was recorded prior to PCI at admission. The primary end point was defined as all-cause death.
Results
Median follow-up duration was 753 days (497–838 days). All-cause death was observed in 230 (8.9%) patients. The ROC-AUC (Receiver operating characteristic-area under the curve) of pre-ASI for all- cause death was 0.76 (p<0.001), which was similar to that of in-ASI (0.78, p<0.001) (p=0.25 for pre-ASI versus in-ASI). The cut-off value for pre-ASI and in-ASI was for the prediction of all-cause death was both 45 with a sensitivity of 0.66 and a specificity of 0.78, with a sensitivity of 0.68 and a specificity of 0.76 respectively. According to the Kaplan-Meier survival analysis by combination of pre-ASI≥45 and in-ASI≥45, the patients with pre-ASI≥45 and in-ASI≥45 showed significantly higher all-cause mortality compared to the patients with pre-ASI≥45 and in-ASI<45, the patients with pre-ASI<45 and in-ASI≥45, and the patients with pre-ASI<45 and in-ASI<45 (p<0.001) (Figure). The addition of pre-ASI≥45 to in-ASI≥45 (global chi-squared score: 205) resulted in a significantly increased global chi-squared score, suggesting the incremental prognostic value of pre-ASI (267; p<0.001). Multivariate cox proportional hazard regression analysis for all-cause mortality demonstrated pre-ASI≥45 was a significant independent predictor (HR: 4.86; 95% CI: 3.36 to 7.02, p<0.001). It was strongest predictor compared to left ventricular ejection fraction<40% (HR: 2.45; 95% CI 1.67 to 3.58, p<0.001), hemodialysis (HR: 3.45; 95% CI 1.66 to 7.17, p=0.001), door to balloon time>90 minutes (HR: 1.66; 95% CI 1.18 to 2.34, p=0.004).
Conclusions
High pre-ASI predict increase mortality and assessment of both high pre-ASI and high in-ASI enhance risk stratification in patients with AMI. Early recognizing high pre-ASI may help us make better strategies and improve prognosis for high-risk AMI patients.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Coronary functional abnormalities including both epicardial and microvascular coronary artery spasm represent an important role responsible for myocardial ischemia in patients with angina and nonobstructive coronary artery disease. However, clinical characteristics associated with microvascular spasm (MVS) have not been fully evaluated.
Purpose
The aim of this study was to assess differences in clinical features between patients with MVS and epicardial coronary spasm.
Methods
A total of 732 consecutive patients with suspected angina who presented nonobstructive coronary arteries and underwent intracoronary acetylcholine provocation test were retrospectively enrolled in this study. Epicardial coronary spasm was defined as total or subtotal occlusion of epicardial coronary arteries accompanied by chest pain and/or ischemic electrocardiographic changes in response to acetylcholine provocation test. MVS was diagnosed when chest pain and/or ischemic electrocardiographic changes developed after administration of acetylcholine in the absence of epicardial coronary spasm. Clinical characteristics were compared between patients with MVS and epicardial coronary spasm.
Results
Of all patients, 83 patients (11%) had MVS, 367 (50%) had epicardial coronary spasm, and the other patients (39%) showed neither MVS nor epicardial coronary spasm. Patients with MVS tended to be older (65.6±12.7 vs. 63.0±12.3 years, P=0.088) and were more frequently female (60.2% vs. 41.1%, P=0.0016) in comparison with patients with epicardial coronary spasm. Patients with MVS were less likely to be smokers (8.6% vs. 22.9%, P=0.0018), while there were no significant differences in the other coronary risk factors such as hypertension, dyslipidemia, and diabetes mellitus. Serum uric acid were significantly lower in patients with MVS (4.9±1.1 vs. 5.4±1.3 mg/dl, P=0.0018).
Conclusion
Our study demonstrated that patients with MVS had distinctive clinical background from those with epicardial coronary spasm, suggesting different mechanisms may involve the development of MVS.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Vasospastic angina (VSA) accounts for the majority of angina cases with no epicardial stenosis and develops amongawide range of age, which is reportedly induced by coronary functional abnormalities including endothelial dysfunction and smooth muscle hypercontraction. However, the relation of noninvasive vascular function tests to VSA remains to be fully elucidated.
Purpose
The aim of this study was to assess differences in clinical characteristics and findings from noninvasive vascular function tests among groups by age in patients with VSA.
Methods
We enrolled a total of 732 patients with angina who underwent intracoronary acetylcholine provocation test. VSA was defined as total or subtotal occlusion of epicardial coronary arteries accompanied by chest pain and/or ischemic electrocardiographic changes in response to acetylcholine administration. Patients with VSA were divided into 3 groups by age (young [<50 years], intermediate [50–64 years], and elderly group [≥65 years]). Noninvasive vascular function test findings such as ankle-brachial index (ABI), brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV), andpercentage of mean arterial pressure (%MAP) were compared among groups by age in patients with VSA.
Results
Of all patients, 367 (50.1%) were diagnosed as VSA with intracoronary acetylcholine test, including 66 (18.0%), 113 (30.8%), and 188 (51.2%) patients in the young, intermediate, and elderly groups. Among groups by age, there was no significant difference in gender (female, 31.8% vs. 40.7% vs. 44.7%, P=0.19). Patients in the young group were more often smokers and alcohol drinkers than those in the intermediate and elderly groups, while the prevalence of hypertension, dyslipidemia, and diabetes were lower in younger patients. A history of percutaneous coronary intervention was less frequently found in the young group compared tothe intermediate and elderly groups (7.6% vs. 16.8% vs. 20.7%, P=0.033). The baPWV was higher in the elderly group (1424±232 vs. 1537±247 vs. 1774±358 cm/s, P<0.0001), while there was no difference in ABI between the 3 groups. %MAP at arms was significantly and progressively decreased with an increase in age (54.0±4.5% vs. 53.0±2.6% vs. 51.2±2.8%, P<0.0001).
Conclusion
Our study demonstrated that there were distinct age-related differences in clinical characteristics of patients with VSA. The higher %MAP in younger patients suggests that more impaired endothelial dysfunction may play a role in the development of VSA in this age group.

Abstract
A 79-year-old Japanese woman presented with a rare case of metastatic renal cell carcinoma to the left sphenoid sinus with left nasal bleeding. She had previously had right radical nephrectomy for renal cell carcinoma at the age of 64 years and brain and spinal cord infarction at 74 years. Endoscopic examination revealed no mass in the nasal cavity. CT and MRI revealed a tumor in the left sphenoid sinus. The size of the tumor increased gradually from 12 to 15 years after the radical nephrectomy. Complete resection with endoscopic surgery was performed without preoperative embolization. The tumor cells had clear cytoplasm and were arranged in a trabecular pattern lined by a layer of endothelial cells. These findings were identical to the pathological findings of the surgical specimen of the renal cell carcinoma from 15 years previous. A pathological diagnosis of metastatic renal cell carcinoma of clear cell type (grade 1) was made. PET-CT demonstrated no metastasis. The patient's condition was successfully managed with excision of the tumor, and she remains well with no evidence of recurrence and metastasis 36 months after treatment. Metastatic renal cell carcinoma to the sphenoid sinus is rare, but it might be considered in the differential diagnosis of masses in the paranasal sinus even long after initial treatment of renal cancer.

Abstract
Resorbable materials are used to fix bony fragments after sagittal split ramus osteotomy (SSRO), but to our knowledge, there is no clear regimen for antibiotic prophylaxis when such materials are used. The purpose of this study therefore was to compare inpatient single-agent and extended dual-agent antibiotic prophylaxis for the prevention of surgical site infections (SSI) in patients after SSRO. This prospective study included 100 patients who underwent SSRO for deformities of the jaw. Cephalometric analysis was performed preoperatively, and at one month and one year postoperatively. Patients were divided into two groups of 50 each. Group A was given cefazolin sodium 1g preoperatively and every eight hours for 48 hours postoperatively. Group B was given cefazolin sodium 1g preoperatively and every eight hours for 48 hours postoperatively, after which they were provided with oral amoxicillin for three days. Both groups were assessed for SSIs for one year postoperatively using the Clavien-Dindo classification. SSIs were documented in seven patients in Group A and six in Group B, with no significant difference between the groups. The two regimens had no significant association with SSI. In conclusion, our results suggest that the inpatient, single-agent, postoperative antibiotic regimen is sufficient to prevent SSI in patients who have SSRO with resorbable plate and screw fixation.

Abstract
Immunoglobulin G4-related disease (IgG4-RD) is a recently recognized disease, characterized by high serum IgG4 concentrations and IgG4-producing plasma cell expansion with fibrotic or sclerotic changes in affected organs. Recent work has focused on the relationship between IgG4-RD and malignancies, but there is no report of malignancies associated with IgG4-RD in head and neck regions. The aim of this study was to analyze the clinicopathological characteristics of malignancies in patients with IgG4-RD in head and neck regions. We retrospectively analyzed 26 patients with IgG4-RD (12 men and 14 women aged 60.6 ± 11.6 years). The mean follow-up period was 26.6 months (from 12 to 96 months). These patients were divided into single-lesion group (n = 12) with IgG4-RD only in head and neck regions and multiple-lesion group (n = 14) with IgG4-RD in other regions. There was no significant difference in serum IgG4 concentrations between the single-lesion group (459.4 ± 336.4 mg/dL) and the multiple-lesion group (908.0 ± 739.2 mg/dL) (P = 0.07), whereas the IgG4/IgG ratio was significantly lower in the single-lesion group (22.8 ± 11.0%; n = 11) compared with the multiple-lesion group (31.7 ± 15.0%; n = 11, P = 0.02). Among the 26 patients, two patients (7.7%), both in the multiple-lesion group, developed life-threatening malignancies (salivary duct carcinoma in the submandibular gland and lymphoma in the orbital tissue). All physicians need to keep in mind the possible coexistence of malignancies in patients with IgG4-RD with high IgG4/IgG ratio and multiple lesions at the time of diagnosis.

Abstract
HIV-associated salivary gland disease refers to the pathology in head and neck lesions such as ranula, salivary gland swelling, xerostomia, and benign lymphoepithelial cysts in the parotid gland. Here, we present a unique case of the ranula patient with HIV infection treated with OK-423 sclerotherapy. Case report: The patient was a 42-year-old Japanese male with a few months history of oral floor swelling. Computed tomography (CT) showed a low-density area limited within the right floor of the mouth. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed a distinct T2-high intensity area localized on the same location. The puncture fluid was bloody mucus, and the cytology was no malignancy. We diagnosed a simple ranula. He was, however, found to be HIV-antibody positive at the examination before treatment by chance. He was referred to the department of infectious diseases and definitively diagnosed HIV infection by western blot. We chose OK-432 sclerotherapy because of its minimally invasive and the risk of HIV infecting medical staff. Two times OK-432 injection made the lesion disappear. Conclusion: The case indicated that OK-432 sclerotherapy could be effective for ranula related to HIV.
