Abstract
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to assess the relationship between urinary WT1-positive cells (podocytes and active parietal epithelial cells) and WT1-positive cells in renal biopsy to investigate whether urinary WT1-positive cells are useful for detection of crescent formation. METHODS Fifty-two patients with kidney disease were investigated (15 cases with crescentic lesions and 37 cases with non-crescentic lesions) for immunoenzyme staining using anti-WT1 antibody for urine cytology and renal biopsy. Numbers of WT1-positive cells in urine and renal biopsy were counted. RESULTS There was no correlation between urinary WT1-positive cells and WT1-positive cells in renal biopsy. However, the number of urinary WT1-positive cells in patients with crescentic lesions was significantly higher than in patients with non-crescentic lesions. In addition, the best cut-off value to detect patients with crescentic lesions using urinary was 5 cells/10-mL (area under the concentration-time curve=0.735). CONCLUSIONS The results of our study suggest urinary WT1-positive cells can be used to detect patients with crescent formation using 5 cells/10-mL cutoff value. WT1-positive glomerular podocytes and parietal epithelial cells may be shed into urine in active glomerular disease. This study, investigating the relationship between WT1-positive cells in urine and in the renal biopsy found no correlation; however, the results do suggest that, using a cutoff value of 5 cells/10 mL, WT1 positive urinary cells can be used to detect patients with crescent formation.

Abstract
The first elastic electron scattering has been successfully performed at the self-confining radioactive-isotope ion target (SCRIT) facility, the world's first electron scattering facility for SCRIT technique achieved high luminosity (over 10^{27} cm^{-2} s^{-1}, sufficient for determining the nuclear shape) with only 10^{8} target ions. While ^{132}Xe used in this time as a target is a stable isotope, the charge density distribution was first extracted from the momentum transfer distributions of the scattered electrons by comparing the results with those calculated by a phase shift calculation.

Abstract
Transplantation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), which possess self-renewing properties and multipotency, into a periodontal defect is thought to be a useful option for periodontal tissue regeneration. However, developing more reliable and predictable implantation techniques is still needed. Recently, we generated clumps of an MSC/extracellular matrix (ECM) complex (C-MSC), which consisted of cells and self-produced ECM. C-MSCs can regulate their cellular functions in vitro and can be grafted into a defect site, without any artificial scaffold, to induce bone regeneration. Accordingly, this study aimed to evaluate the effect of C-MSC transplantation on periodontal tissue regeneration in beagle dogs. Seven beagle dogs were employed to generate a premolar class III furcation defect model. MSCs isolated from dog ilium were seeded at a density of 7.0 × 104 cells/well into 24-well plates and cultured in growth medium supplemented with 50 µg/mL ascorbic acid for 4 d. To obtain C-MSCs, confluent cells were scratched using a micropipette tip and were then torn off as a cellular sheet. The sheet was rolled up to make round clumps of cells. C-MSCs were maintained in growth medium or osteoinductive medium (OIM) for 5 or 10 d. The biological properties of C-MSCs were evaluated in vitro, and their periodontal tissue regenerative activity was tested by using a dog class III furcation defect model. Immunofluorescence analysis revealed that type I collagen fabricated the form of C-MSCs. OIM markedly elevated calcium deposition in C-MSCs at day 10, suggesting its osteogenic differentiation capacity. Both C-MSCs and C-MSCs cultured with OIM transplantation without an artificial scaffold into the dog furcation defect induced periodontal tissue regeneration successfully compared with no graft, whereas osteogenic-differentiated C-MSCs led to rapid alveolar bone regeneration. These findings suggested that the use of C-MSCs refined by self-produced ECM may represent a novel predictable periodontal tissue regenerative therapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Transplant coronary arterial vasculopathy (TCAV) is a major cause of death after heart transplantation (HTx). Palliative coronary revascularization has been attempted in patients with severe TCAV; however, the outcome has not been fully elucidated. METHODS Ninety-six patients who were treated after HTx at our institute between 1999 and 2015 were screened for TCAV. TCAV was defined as >70% stenosis on coronary angiography (CAG) or a maximal intimal thickness of >0.5 mm in the right or left coronary arteries on intracoronary ultrasonography (IVUS). In the present study, the outcomes of patients with severe TCAV who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) or coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) were investigated. RESULTS TCAV containing donor-transmitted atherosclerosis was cumulatively found in 69 patients (71.9% of the total; mean age, 34.6 ± 13.1 years; 52 men; mean follow-up duration, 83.0 ± 60.4 months). Five (7.2%) and 64 (92.8%) of the 69 patients were diagnosed as having TCAV by use of CAG and IVUS, respectively. All 5 patients diagnosed by with the use of CAG underwent coronary revascularization between 1 and 236 months after HTx. Three patients underwent PCI with drug-eluting stents, with a primary success rate of 100%. No angiographic restenosis occurred in 2 patients at 31 and 36 months after PCI, respectively. Meanwhile, 2 patients underwent CABG. No peri-operative complications occurred, and all grafts were patent as assessed by use of CAG at 34 and 5 months after CABG. CONCLUSIONS Coronary revascularization was feasible and effective for severe TCAV with middle-term follow-up.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Analysis of bloodstream infections (BSIs) is valuable for their diagnosis, treatment and prevention. However, limited data are available in Japan. AIM To investigate the characteristics of patients with bacteraemia in Japan. METHODS This study was conducted in five hospitals from October 2012 to September 2013. Clinical, demographic, microbiological and outcome data for all blood-culture-positive cases were analysed. FINDINGS In total, 3206 cases of BSI were analysed: 551 community-onset healthcare-associated (CHA)-BSIs, 1891 hospital-acquired (HA)-BSIs and 764 community-acquired (CA)-BSIs. The seven- and 30-day mortality rates were higher in patients with CHA- and HA-BSIs than in patients with CA-BSIs. The odds ratios (ORs) for seven-day mortality were 2.56 [95% confidence interval (CI) 1.48-4.41] and 2.63 (95% CI 1.64-4.19) for CHA- and HA-BSIs, respectively. The ORs for 30-day mortality were 2.41 (95% CI 1.63-3.57) and 3.31 (95% CI 2.39-4.59) for CHA- and HA-BSIs, respectively. There were 499 cases (15.2%) of central-line-associated BSI and 163 cases (5.0%) of peripheral-line-associated BSI. Major pathogens included coagulase-negative staphylococci (N = 736, 23.0%), Escherichia coli (N = 581, 18.1%), Staphylococcus aureus (N = 294, 9.2%) and Klebsiella pneumoniae (N = 263, 8.2%). E. coli exhibited a higher 30-day mortality rate among patients with HA-BSIs (22.3%) compared with patients with CHA-BSIs (12.3%) and CA-BSIs (3.4%). K. pneumoniae exhibited higher 30-day mortality rates in patients with HA-BSIs (22.0%) and CHA-BSIs (22.7%) compared with patients with CA-BSIs (7.8%). CONCLUSION CHA- and HA-BSIs had higher mortality rates than CA-BSIs. The prognoses of E. coli- and K. pneumonia-related BSIs differed according to the category of bacteraemia.

Abstract
Abstract
Current methods for the assessment of ER, PR, Her2, and Ki67 using FFPE tissues are hard to standardize and difficult to perform in Low and Middle Income Countries (LMIC). The GeneXpert® breast cancer stratifier assay (RUO) (BC Strat) is a cartridge-based, RT-qPCR assay of ESR1, PGR, ERBB2, and MKi67 mRNAs using FFPE specimens. The assay is fast (<2 hours, including <10 minutes of hands-on time) and easy to perform.
The aims of this study were: 1) to evaluate the concordance of BC Strat using different IHC antibodies and scoring methods in a preliminary dataset (Part I); and 2) to assess concordance between BC Strat and high quality standard methods in an expanded dataset (Part II).
Methods
Part I: IHC Antibody Variability
To assess BC Strat concordance with various IHC antibodies, 155 invasive ductal carcinoma blocks were sourced from 3 sites. Twenty-four adjacent slide sections from each block were prepared and shipped to different labs for BC Strat analysis(Cepheid) or IHC and FISH testing. Table 1 summarizes the IHC antibodies and scoring methods used in each reference lab.

Part II: Concordance Study
522 invasive ductal carcinoma FFPE samples were sourced from 5 sites. All BC Strat analysis was performed at Cepheid and all IHC and FISH was performed in the Press laboratory at USC. Overall percent agreement (OPA), positive percent agreement (PPA), and negative percent agreement (NPA) between BC Strat and IHC were determined.
Results
Part I: IHC Antibody Variability
Table 2 summarizes the OPA for BC Strat analysis and IHC performed with different IHC antibodies and scoring methods. Slightly better concordance for ER and PR was observed between the BC Strat and the IHC methods performed at USC. Discordant IHC results were also observed among the reference labs' standard methodologies.

Part II: Concordance Study
Of the 522 samples tested, 499 (96%) yielded valid results for both BC Strat and IHC (IHC and FISH for Her2). OPA between BC Strat and IHC was 98% for ESR1, 91% for PGR, 93% for ERBB2 (IHC and FISH, 97% for Her2 IHC excluding IHC2+), and 81% for MKi67.
Conclusion
BC Strat assay measurements for ESR1, PGR, ERBB2 and MKi67 mRNA expression in FFPE breast tumor tissues are highly concordant with IHC and FISH performed by high quality reference labs. Further investigations using clinical outcomes from independent studies including prospective-retrospective clinical trials are in progress.

Abstract
Minimally invasive thoracoscopic esophagectomy has potential advantages in minimizing the impairment of respiratory function and reducing surgical stress. However, thoracoscopic esophagectomy occasionally results in anesthesia-induced hypothermia, particularly in cases involving artificial pneumothorax with CO2. Thermogenesis induced by amino acid administration has been reported during anesthesia. Here, we tested the efficacy of amino acid treatment for the prevention of hypothermia, and we investigated the potential of this treatment to reduce postoperative infectious complications after thoracoscopic esophagectomy. We conducted a randomized trial in patients with esophageal cancer who underwent thoracoscopic esophagectomy in the prone position in two groups and analyzed the incidences of hypothermia and surgical complications. One-hundred and thirty patients were randomized. Administration of amino acids resulted in a significant increase in core body temperature. In the saline (n = 60) and amino acid (n = 70) administration groups, 30% and 14.2% of patients, respectively, experienced infectious surgical complications (P = 0.029), and 21.6% and 22.8% of patients, respectively, experienced noninfectious surgical complications (P = 0.86). Univariate analysis revealed that blood loss and amino acid administration were significant factors for infectious surgical complications. Multivariate analysis revealed that amino acid administration was an independent factor reducing infectious surgical complications (P = 0.025, 95% confidence interval: 0.105-0.864). Administration of amino acids prevents hypothermia and reduces postoperative infectious complications after thoracoscopic esophagectomy.
