Abstract
Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) is increasingly being used for the treatment of intrathoracic malignancies. Although RFA has been found to be promising in the treatment of lung metastases from some types of neoplasms, little is known concerning its clinical significance in the treatment of pulmonary metastasis from esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). This retrospective study evaluated the feasibility, safety, and effectiveness of computed tomography-guided RFA for pulmonary metastasis from ESCC. A series of 10 ESCC patients with 17 pulmonary tumors were included. Correct placement of the ablation device into the target tumor proved to be feasible in all tumors (100%). The mean visual analog scale score, with values that ranged from 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst pain possible), was 1. This suggested that this procedure was well tolerated. No procedure-related deaths occurred. A pneumothorax needing drainage was a major complication in two patients. Local control of ablated tumor lasting for at least 1 year was achieved in 10 (83%) of 12 assessable tumors. Although locoregional recurrences developed in two tumors, these lesions could be recontrolled by repeat treatment with RFA. Three patients died of recurrent disease. The predicted 1- and 2-year overall survival rates after lung RFA were 77.8% and 62.2%, respectively. Percutaneous computed tomography-guided RFA yielded relatively high levels of local control in patients with pulmonary metastases from ESCC and was associated with an acceptable level of complications. It was concluded that a prospective study will be necessary to evaluate the effectiveness of a combination of systemic therapy and RFA for ESCC lung metastases.

Abstract
Since its first outbreak in Japan in 2003, koi-herpesvirus (KHV) remains a challenge to the carp Cyprinus carpio L. breeding industry. In this study, inactivation of KHV in water from carp habitats (carp habitat water) was investigated with the aim of developing a model for rapidly inactivating the pathogen in aquaculture effluent. Experiments with live fish showed that, in carp habitat water, KHV lost its infectivity within 3 days. Indications were that inactivation of KHV was caused by the antagonistic activity of bacteria (anti-KHV bacteria) in the water from carp habitats. Carp habitat water and the intestinal contents of carp were therefore screened for anti-KHV bacteria. Of 581 bacterial isolates, 23 showed anti-KHV activity. An effluent treatment model for the disinfection of KHV in aquaculture effluent water using anti-KHV bacteria was developed and evaluated. The model showed a decrease in cumulative mortality and in the number of KHV genome copies in kidney tissue of fish injected with treated effluent compared with a positive control. It is thought that anti-KHV bacteria isolated from the intestinal contents of carp and from carp habitat water can be used to control KHV outbreaks.

Abstract
Emission of nitrous oxide (N2O) during biological wastewater treatment is of growing concern since N2O is a major stratospheric ozone-depleting substance and an important greenhouse gas. The emission of N2O from a lab-scale granular sequencing batch reactor (SBR) for partial nitrification (PN) treating synthetic wastewater without organic carbon was therefore determined in this study, because PN process is known to produce more N2O than conventional nitrification processes. The average N2O emission rate from the SBR was 0.32 ± 0.17 mg-N L(-1) h(-1), corresponding to the average emission of N2O of 0.8 ± 0.4% of the incoming nitrogen load (1.5 ± 0.8% of the converted NH4(+)). Analysis of dynamic concentration profiles during one cycle of the SBR operation demonstrated that N2O concentration in off-gas was the highest just after starting aeration whereas N2O concentration in effluent was gradually increased in the initial 40 min of the aeration period and was decreased thereafter. Isotopomer analysis was conducted to identify the main N2O production pathway in the reactor during one cycle. The hydroxylamine (NH2OH) oxidation pathway accounted for 65% of the total N2O production in the initial phase during one cycle, whereas contribution of the NO2(-) reduction pathway to N2O production was comparable with that of the NH2OH oxidation pathway in the latter phase. In addition, spatial distributions of bacteria and their activities in single microbial granules taken from the reactor were determined with microsensors and by in situ hybridization. Partial nitrification occurred mainly in the oxic surface layer of the granules and ammonia-oxidizing bacteria were abundant in this layer. N2O production was also found mainly in the oxic surface layer. Based on these results, although N2O was produced mainly via NH2OH oxidation pathway in the autotrophic partial nitrification reactor, N2O production mechanisms were complex and could involve multiple N2O production pathways.

Abstract
A limited number of patients with resectable advanced esophageal cancer can be cured by surgery alone. Although a regimen that consists of docetaxel, cisplatin, and 5-fluorouracil (DCF) is a potential preoperative chemotherapy (PCT) option for squamous cell carcinoma of the esophagus, the influence of DCF on subsequent esophagectomies remains unclear. A total of 80 patients who received preoperative DCF chemotherapy, and 174 patients who did not receive any preoperative treatment were retrospectively analyzed. There were no treatment-related deaths. No delays in surgery due to adverse events related to DCF were reported. Although patients who received PCT had significantly more advanced cancers and worse preoperative conditions, the incidence rates of complications did not increase. Although the frequency of severe complications was significantly higher in patients who received PCT, this treatment was not an independent factor for the occurrence of severe complications. PCT with DCF did not negatively affect subsequent esophagectomies with regard to the frequency of complications.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The involvement of vagal parasympathetic efferents in esophageal myenteric neurons in vagal inhibitory pathways to the lower esophageal sphincter (LES) is not clear. Thus, this study was performed to demonstrate morphologically the presence of vagal inhibitory pathways to the LES via esophageal neurons. METHODS Fast Blue (FB) was injected into the LES of Wistar rats, and 3 days after injection, the animals were subjected to electrical stimulation of the vagus nerve. The esophagus was processed for immunohistochemistry for Fos that was an immediate-early gene as a marker of neuronal activity, nitric oxide synthase (NOS), vasoactive intestinal polypeptide (VIP) and choline acetyltransferase (ChAT). The immunoreactivities were then compared with the FB labeling in esophageal neurons. KEY RESULTS Fast Blue-labeled neurons were observed within an esophageal area of 30 mm oral to the LES, with the highest frequency in the esophagus just above the LES. Most of the FB-labeled neurons were positive for NOS and VIP, but a few for ChAT. Following vagal-electrical stimulation, one fourth of the FB-labeled neurons presented nuclei expressing Fos and most of these Fos/FB neurons were NOS-positive. CONCLUSIONS & INFERENCES A majority of the FB-labeled esophageal neurons appeared to be descending motor neurons innervating the LES. Moreover, the colocalization of VIP and NOS in most of the LES-projecting neurons suggests that VIP and NO released from these neurons induce LES relaxation, and the innervation of the vagal efferents to the LES-projecting esophageal neurons in the distal esophagus implies a vagal inhibitory pathway responsible for LES relaxation.

Abstract
Background: LINE-1 methylation level is a surrogate marker of global DNA methylation. LINE-1 methylation in primary colorectal cancers (CRCs) is highly variable and strongly associated with a poor prognosis. However, no study has examined LINE-1 methylation levels of metastatic CRCs in relation to prognosis or assessed the heterogeneity of LINE-1 methylation level within the primary CRCs. Methods: Pyrosequencing was used to quantify LINE-1 methylation level in 42 liver metastases, 26 matched primary tumours, and 6 matched lymph node (LN) metastases. KRAS, BRAF, and PIK3CA mutation status and microsatellite instability (MSI) status were also examined. Results: The distribution of LINE-1 methylation level in liver metastases was as follows: mean, 67.3; range, 37.1–90.1. Primary tumours showed LINE-1 methylation levels similar to those of matched liver and LN metastases. The difference in LINE-1 methylation level between superficial areas and invasive front areas was within 7.0 in all six cases evaluated. Prognostic impact of LINE-1 hypomethylation in liver metastases on overall survival was not observed. The concordance rate was 94% for KRAS, 100% for BRAF, 88% for PIK3CA, and 97% for MSI. Conclusion: Alteration of LINE-1 methylation level may occur in early CRC tumorigenesis, and the LINE-1 methylation level is relatively stable during CRC progression.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIMS To evaluate the usefulness of flexible spectral imaging color enhancement with indigo carmine (I-FICE) in early gastric cancer (EGC) demarcation. METHODS The study participants were 29 patients with differentiated-type EGC. The endoscope was fixed and images of the same area of EGC demarcations in each lesion were obtained using four different methods (WLE, flexible spectral imaging color enhancement (FICE), CE, and I-FICE). FICE mode at R 550 nm (Gain: 2), G 500 nm (Gain: 4), and B 470 nm (Gain: 4) was used. Four endoscopists ranked the images obtained by each method on the basis of the ease of recognition of demarcation using a 4-point system. We calculated the standard deviation of pixel values based on L*, a*, and b* color spaces in the demarcation region (Lab-SD score). RESULTS The median ranking score for I-FICE images was significantly higher than that obtained from the other methods. Further, the average Lab-SD score was significantly higher for I-FICE images than for images obtained by the other methods. There was a good correlation between the ranking score and Lab-SD score. CONCLUSION EGC demarcations were most easily recognized both subjectively and objectively using I-FICE image, followed by CE, FICE and WLE images.

Abstract
Objective: This preoperative study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of 4 cycles of TX compared with 4 cycles of T, following 4 cycles of FEC in operable breast cancer patients.
Methods: Women with operable breast cancer (T1C-3N0M0/T1-3N1M0) were randomly assigned to receive either T (75 mg/m2, q3) plus X (825 mg/m2 bid, days 1 to 14) or T alone (75 mg/m2, q3) after completion of FEC (5-fluorouracil 500 mg/m2, epirubicin 100 mg/m2, cyclophosphamide 500 mg/m2, q3). Patients who had disease progression on FEC were excluded from randomization. The primary endpoint was pathological complete response (pCR). Predictive factor analysis was conducted using clinicopathological markers such as hormone receptors, Ki67 labeling index (Ki67LI) and thymidine phosphorylase (TP).
Results: From November 2005 to October 2009, 504 patients were enrolled and 239 and 238 patients were assigned to TX and T group, respectively (median age 49 years, median tumor size 3.5 cm and node positive rate 56%). Treatment discontinuation was observed in 22% of TX group and 5% in T group (p < 0.0001). The major reasons for discontinuation were toxicity, refusal/ consent withdrawal and several others. No significant difference in pCR rate was shown between the two groups (TX 23% and T 24%, p = 0.748). Neither clinical response nor surgical outcome differed between TX and T. The pCR rate in patients who had therapy discontinuation or dose-reduction on TX was 23%, whereas pCR rate in those on T was 11%. A subpopulation treatment effect pattern plots method indicated a trend that TX may improve the pCR rate in patients having a middle range of pretreatment Ki67LI, such as 10%–20%. In the median follow-up time of 3.7 years, disease-free survival (DFS) was not different between TX and T (3-year DFS: 92% in TX and 91% in T; hazard ratio 0.907, 95%CI 0.528–1.557, p = 0.723). The frequency of major grade 3 or greater adverse events of TX and T were leukopenia, 36% and 34%, febrile neutropenia 8% and 5%, and hand-foot syndrome 15% and 2%, respectively.
According to the analysis for evaluating predictive values of biomarkers, a multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that HER2 (+/−: odds ratio 4.107, p < 0.0001), Ki67LI (continuous variables: 1.029, p = 0.003), hormone receptor status (+/−: 0.457, p = 0.009), stroma TP status (0.523, p = 0.02) and grade (1/3: 0.387, 2/3: 0.532, p = 0.047) had statistical significant values for predicting pCR. A multiple Cox model in landmark analysis showed that tumor size (p < 0.0001), cancer cell TP status (p = 0.005), pCR and posttreatment Ki67LI (p = 0.016), and age (p = 0.049) were associated with DFS significantly.
Conclusions: Addition of X to T showed no superiority to T alone following FEC in neoadjuvant treatment of these patients with operable breast cancer. Treatment discontinuation rate was significantly higher in TX than T group, however the pCR rate in patients in TX group who required treatment discontinuation or dose-reduction was similar to that in patients who completed as scheduled, which was different from T group. Determination of pre-/ post-treatment Ki67LI looks useful for predicting pCR and DFS.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Insulin allergy is a not uncommon condition even though human insulin and insulin analogues are widely used. However, the development of insulin allergy after bone marrow transplantation has not been reported. CASE REPORT A 44-year-old Japanese woman had aplastic anaemia and secondary haemochromatosis. She was diagnosed with having diabetes at age 32 years and had been treated with human insulin. At age 34 years, bone marrow transplantation was performed. One year later, a rash and urticaria appeared immediately after insulin injections. Intracutaneous tests were positive for both human insulins and analogues, whereas the test for protamine was negative. Furthermore, an IgE-radioallergosorbent test against insulin was positive. Thus, we diagnosed the patient with having an IgE-mediated type I allergy against insulin. Insulin therapy with insulin aspart, which showed the least skin reaction, was continued and the insulin allergy disappeared in 7 years. CONCLUSIONS This is the first description of insulin allergy after bone marrow transplantation. Our case underscores the effects of bone marrow cells on IgE-mediated type I allergy for insulin.
