Abstract
A benchmark experiment on (208)Pb shows that polarized proton inelastic scattering at very forward angles including 0° is a powerful tool for high-resolution studies of electric dipole (E1) and spin magnetic dipole (M1) modes in nuclei over a broad excitation energy range to test up-to-date nuclear models. The extracted E1 polarizability leads to a neutron skin thickness r(skin) = 0.156(-0.021)(+0.025) fm in (208)Pb derived within a mean-field model [Phys. Rev. C 81, 051303 (2010)], thereby constraining the symmetry energy and its density dependence relevant to the description of neutron stars.

Abstract
We report on the first measurement of the triangular v3, quadrangular v4, and pentagonal v5 charged particle flow in Pb-Pb collisions at sqrt(s(NN)) = 2.76 TeV measured with the ALICE detector at the CERN Large Hadron Collider. We show that the triangular flow can be described in terms of the initial spatial anisotropy and its fluctuations, which provides strong constraints on its origin. In the most central events, where the elliptic flow v2 and v3 have similar magnitude, a double peaked structure in the two-particle azimuthal correlations is observed, which is often interpreted as a Mach cone response to fast partons. We show that this structure can be naturally explained from the measured anisotropic flow Fourier coefficients.

Abstract
577 Background: We conducted a phase I/II study of novel transcatheter arterial chemoembolization with cisplatin powder and degradable starch microspheres (DSM) to determine the recommended dose (RD) and to assess the efficacy and safety. Methods: Cisplatin powder and DSM mixing solution was administered followed by the injection of DSM alone via hepatic artery every 4 weeks. In phase I, cohorts of 3 patients received escalating dose of cisplatin (50, 65 and 80mg/m2), and RD was estimated during the first cycle. In the phase II, more RD patients were added to assess tumor response, toxicity, hepatic progression free survival (H-PFS) and 6-month overall survival (OS) rate. Results: A total of 24 patients (male 16, female 8; mean age 63.0, range 45-79; colon 15, rectal 9) were enrolled in this study. FOLFOX had previously been administered to all patients, irinotecan-containing regimen to 12 and bevacizumab and/or cetuximab to 14. During phase I (n= 9 patients), maximum tolerated dose was not reached and cisplatin 80 mg/m2 was recommended for a phase II. Phase II enrolled 15 patients. The following grade 3 toxicities were observed: platelets reduction 16.6%, aspartate transaminase elevation 38.8%, alanine transaminase elevation 16.6%, hyponatremia 11.1%, cholecystitis 5.5%. The tumor response rate was 53.3% (CR 0, PR 8, SD 6, and PD 1). The median H-PFS was 6.3 months (95% CI; 2.71 to 9.88) and 6 -month OS rate was 86.7%. Conclusions: This phase I/II study demonstrates that novel transcatheter arterial chemoembolization with 80 mg/m2 cisplatin powder and DSM is well tolerable, and can produce a high response rate with encouraging survival duration. Further clinical trials are warranted. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

Abstract
292 Background: Conventional transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) using with ethiodized oil mixed with epirubicin or doxorubicin hydrochloride mainly has been widely adapted for intermediate-stage hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). However, cisplatin has stronger effect for HCC than epirubicin and in the recent years cisplatin powder was commercially available in Japan and then we can use cisplatin powder mixed with ethiodized oil for HCC. We conducted a phase II study to assess the safety and efficacy of segmental or subsegmental (Seg/Subseg) TACE using a suspension of cisplatin powder mixed with ethiodized oil for unresectable HCC. Methods: Twenty patients with single-nodule HCC that was not indicated for surgical treatment or local ablation therapy were enrolled in this study. Seg/Subseg-TACE was performed by using a 2-F tip microcatheter at a distal portion of the subsegmental artery supplying the tumor. Subsequently, the feeding artery was embolized with gelatin sponge particles. The suspension was prepared by mixing 100 mg of cisplatin powder with 10 ml of ethiodized oil. Primary endpoint of this phase II trial was 2-year local disease free survival (DFS); secondary endpoints evaluated were the safety, time to progression (TTP), and 2-year overall survival (OS) rate. Results: A total of 20 patients (male 15, female 5; mean age 72.4, range 62-83; Child Pugh's A 20) were treated single nodule HCC with Seg/subseg TACE. Median tumor size was 2.6cm (range1.2-5.0cm). The 2-year local DFS was 63.2 %. The following grade 3 or 4 toxicities were observed: platelets reduction 5%, aspartate transaminase elevation 55%, alanine transaminase elevation 40% and alkaline phosphatase elevation 5%. The median TTP was 17.6 months (95%CI, 5.25 to 29.9) and the 2-year OS rate was 94.7%. Conclusions: This phase II study demonstrates that segmental or subsegmental transcatheter arterial chemoembolization using a suspension of cisplatin powder mixed with ethiodized oil is well tolerable, and may achieve significant local tumor control and prolong survival. Further clinical trials are warranted. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

Abstract
307 Background: Unresectable pancreatic cancer is poorly responsive to conventional therapies. We conducted a phase I/II study to ascertain the recommended dose (RD) of 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) in arterial infusion chemotherapy combined with systemic gemcitabine in unresectable pancreatic cancer and to evaluate the safety and efficacy. Methods: 5-FU was administered through the pancreatic and hepatic arteries via the port system as a 5-hour infusion on days 1, 8, and 15 every 4 weeks for 5 cycles. Gemcitabine was administered in 30-minute intravenous infusion at the same days. In phase I, escalating 5-FU doses for level 1 and 2 was set at 750mg and 1,000mg/m2, respectively. Dose of coadministered gemcitabine (1,000 mg/m2) was fixed. Using a 3+3 study design, dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) was assessed, and RD was estimated in the first cycle. In phase II, more RD patients were added to assess tumor response, toxicity, overall survival and progression-free survival. Results: During the phase I, 7 patients were enrolled. DLT was not observed. One patient dropped out of this study because of insufficient drug distribution via the port system. Assuming RD at 1,000mg/m2 of 5-FU, the phase II enrolled a total of 16 patients (metastatic, 14; local advanced, 2). The tumor response rate was 68.8% (CR 0, PR 11, SD 2, PD 3). The grade 3 toxicities of neutropenia (6%) and thrombocytopenia (6%) were observed. Median overall and progression-survival times (all patients) were 9.8 and 6.2 months, respectively. Conclusions: Arterial infusion 5-FU 1,000mg/m2 combined with full-dose systemic gemcitabine was tolerable and can produce a high response rate with encouraging survival duration for unresectable pancreatic cancer. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The objective of this investigation was to establish the effectiveness of sustained-release platelet-rich plasma (PRP) on perfusion and neovascularization in diabetic murine hind limb ischemia. METHODS After surgery in streptozotocin-induced diabetic mice, the mice were randomly assigned to the following 4 experimental groups: control (C), 100 μl of the sustained-release form of platelet-poor plasma (PPP), 100 μl of the solution form of PRP (PRP-sol), and 100 μl of the sustained-release form of PRP (PRP-sr). Endpoint evaluations were: blood perfusion by laser Doppler perfusion imaging (LDPI), vascular density by anti-vWF, and mature vessel density by anti-smooth muscle actin antibody. RESULTS This study demonstrated that a sustained release of PRP increases the perfusion of ischemic tissue as measured by LDPI (57 ± 12; 56 ± 9; 72 ± 7, and 98 ± 4 for the C, PPP, PRP-sol, and PRP-sr groups, respectively; p < 0.05), capillary density (151 ± 16; 158 ± 12; 189 ± 39, and 276 ± 39 for groups C, PPP, PRP-sol, and PRP-sr, respectively; p < 0.05), and mature vessel density (28 ± 2; 31 ± 3; 52 ± 10, and 85 ± 13 for the C, PPP, PRP-sol, and PRP-sr groups, respectively; p < 0.05). CONCLUSION A sustained release of PRP containing potent angiogenic growth factors restores blood perfusion by stimulating angiogenesis and arteriogenesis.

Abstract
Combination therapy with adefovir dipivoxil (ADV) and lamivudine (LAM) is recommended for patients infected with LAM-refractory hepatitis B virus (HBV). However, the effects of such therapy on renal function and serum phosphorus levels have not been fully evaluated. Combination therapy with ADV and LAM was given to 37 patients infected with LAM-refractory HBV, including 17 with hepatic cirrhosis. Serum HBV DNA levels decreased to below 2.6 log(10) copies/mL in 23 (62%) of 37 patients at 12 months, 25 (78%) of 32 patients at 24 months, and 16 (84%) of 19 patients at 36 months. Except for one cirrhotic patient, serum alanine aminotransferase levels were below 50 IU/L in all patients during combination therapy. Serum creatinine levels increased in 14 (38%) of 37 patients, and serum phosphate levels decreased to below 2.5 mg/mL in 6 (16%) of 37 patients during combination therapy. Patients who received combination therapy for 36 months or longer had a significantly incidence of elevated serum creatinine levels. Fanconi syndrome occurred in a 57-year-old woman with cirrhosis after ADV was added to LAM. Combination therapy with ADV and LAM can maintain biochemical remission in patients with LAM-refractory HBV. However, the dosing interval of ADV should be adjusted according to renal function and serum phosphate levels in patients receiving long-term treatment.

Abstract
A 6-year-old boy was diagnosed with aggravation of diffuse supravalvular aortic stenosis (SVAS). The pressure gradient between the sinus of Valsalva and ascending aorta was 48 mmHg. The diameter of the sino-tubular junction was 7 mm and the ascending aorta was hypoplastic. We performed Myers operation because 3 sinus reconstructions had resulted in superior hemodynamics and reductions in both mortality rate and need for reoperation. We avoided using autologous pericardium because of the possibility of shrinkage and aneurysm. We could easily perform patch enlargement of the ascending aorta by selective cerebral perfusion. The postoperative course was excellent and there was no SVAS or aortic regurgitation (AR). A catheterization showed the pressure gradient was 5 mmHg with trivial AR upon follow-up at 1 year.

Abstract
Occlusion of a coronary ostium due to fusion of the aortic cusp to the aortic wall is a rare but noteworthy anomaly, because it may cause a sudden death. We report a 9-year-old girl with severe stenosis of the left coronary ostium by the aortic cusp that fused to the aortic wall. The left coronary flow was restored by excision of the adherent left aortic cusp, and aortic valve replacement was performed with the technique of bilateral enlargement of the aortic valve ring (Yamaguchi's method) to prevent prosthesis-patient mismatch in the future. The patient had an uneventful recovery and was discharged 14th postoperative day (POD). Postoperative angiography showed no coronary ostial stenosis.

Abstract
A 53-year-old woman with a double, double, double (DDD) pacemaker due to complete atrioventricular block was admitted to our hospital with a diagnosis of congestive heart failure. At the time of admission, she was in a hypoxic state with cyanosis and clubbed finger. The ultrasonic cardiogram showed a severe degree of tricuspid valve regurgitation and a thin left ventricular septal wall. Transesophageal echocardiography revealed a patent foramen ovale (PFO) with continuous right to left shunt flow. She was diagnosed with cardiac sarcoidosis with hypoxemia caused by PFO. PFO closure and tricuspid valve annuloplasty (DeVega method) were performed. Following surgery, the patient's hypoxemia improved and the cyanosis disappeared. The patient was discharged 37 days after the operation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Pulmonary hypertension is a life-threatening disease, and alternative strategies are essential for patients with critical pulmonary hypertension. We developed a new procedure using microgelatin hydrogel microspheres incorporating basic fibroblast growth factor (mGHMs/bFGF) for intratracheal administration and evaluated the effect of a single intratracheal administration of mGHMs/bFGF on rats with monocrotaline-induced pulmonary hypertension. METHODS Monocrotaline was injected into 54 rats simultaneously with intratracheal administration of plain mGHMs (vehicle group), bFGF in solution form (free-bFGF group), mGHMs/bFGF (mGHMs/bFGF group), and plain saline with subcutaneous injection of saline instead of monocrotaline (control group, n = 18). Three weeks after the administration, 48 rats (n = 12 from each group) were subjected to hemodynamic and histologic evaluations. Survival was assessed in 6 rats of each group 10 weeks after the intratracheal administration. RESULTS The mGHMs/bFGF group showed significantly lower right ventricular/left ventricular pressure ratios at 3 weeks than the vehicle and free-bFGF groups (0.35 +/- 0.04, 0.54 +/- 0.11, 0.58 +/- 0.21, and 0.36 +/- 0.05 for the control, vehicle, free-bFGF, and mGHMs/bFGF groups, respectively; P < .01). Histologically, the mGHMs/bFGF group had a significantly higher number of vessels (diameter > or = 50 microm) than the other groups (5.3 +/- 2.6, 4.6 +/- 2.8, 7.3 +/- 2.5, and 18.9 +/- 7.0 vessels/mm(2), respectively; P < .01). Ten weeks after the intratracheal administration, 6 (100.0%) rats had survived in the control group, and 1 (16.7%) survived in the vehicle, 0 (0%) in the free-bFGF, and 5 (83.3%) in the mGHMs/bFGF groups (n = 6 each). CONCLUSIONS A single intratracheal administration of mGHMs/bFGF increased the number of vessels in the lung and ameliorated survival and hemodynamics in rats with monocrotaline-induced pulmonary hypertension.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The combined treatment of sustained-release basic fibroblast growth factor (Sr-bFGF) and a 5-hydroxytryptamine(2A) blocker, sarpogrelate, was evaluated to see whether it reversed the impaired collateral circulation in diabetic (DM) mouse hindlimb ischemia. METHOD AND RESULTS Diabetic and normal mice with ischemic hindlimb were randomly assigned to 1 of 5 experimental groups (no treatment, sarpogrelate 50 mg . kg(-1) . day(-1), 20 microg or 50 microg Sr-bFGF and a combined treatment of 20 microg Sr-bFGF and sarpogrelate), and treated for 4 weeks. Tissue blood perfusion (TBP), vascular density (angiogenesis) and the number of mature vessels (arteriogenesis) were checked by the use of standard methods. Although angiogenesis was comparable (161+/-14 vs 154+/-12 vessels/mm(2)), the laser Doppler perfusion image index (LDPII) (0.43+/-0.11 (SD) vs 0.63+/-0.08, p<0.05) and arteriogenesis (8+/-3 vs 12+/-4 vessels/mm(2), p<0.05) were significantly lower in DM mice than those in normal mice. The dose of Sr-bFGF for the sufficient number of mature vessels (>or=45 vessels/mm(2)) and LDPII (>or=0.9) was 20 microg for the normal mice, and 50 microg for the DM mice, which was reduced with the aid of sarpogrelate. Conclusions A combined therapy of Sr-bFGF and sarpogrelate is effective for neovascularization to reverse the impaired arteriogenesis and TBP in DM mice.
