Abstract
The upgraded millimeter-wave interferometer with the frequency of 70 GHz is installed on a large-scaled negative ion source. Measurable line-averaged electron density is from 2 × 1015 to 3 × 1018 m-3 in front of the plasma grid. Several improvements such as the change to shorter wavelength probing with low noise, the installation of special ordered horn antenna, the signal modulation for a high accuracy digital phase detection, the insertion of insulator, and so on, are carried out for the measurement during the beam extraction by applying high voltage. The line-averaged electron density is successfully measured and it is found that it increases linearly with the arc power and drops suddenly at the beam extraction.

Abstract
A 58-year-old male underwent right lung transplantation from a brain-dead donor, after which acute rejection developed that was resistant to steroid pulse therapy. Rabbit-derived anti-thymocyte globulin (rATG) therapy was successful for controlling the rejection. However, following that therapy, the patient was affected by an opportunistic infection and suffered from repeated empyema. It is important to pay attention to immunosuppressive agent levels in blood following treatment, because ATG is a potent immunosuppressive drug and its effects can continue for more than 6 months after administration.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Rhinovirus (RV) infection in asthma induces varying degrees of airway inflammation (e.g. neutrophils), but the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. OBJECTIVE The major goal was to determine the role of genetic variation [e.g. single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs)] of Toll-interacting protein (Tollip) in airway epithelial responses to RV in a type 2 cytokine milieu. METHODS DNA from blood of asthmatic and normal subjects was genotyped for Tollip SNP rs5743899 AA, AG and GG genotypes. Human tracheobronchial epithelial (HTBE) cells from donors without lung disease were cultured to determine pro-inflammatory and antiviral responses to IL-13 and RV16. Tollip knockout and wild-type mice were challenged with house dust mite (HDM) and infected with RV1B to determine lung inflammation and antiviral response. RESULTS Asthmatic subjects carrying the AG or GG genotype (AG/GG) compared with the AA genotype demonstrated greater airflow limitation. HTBE cells with AG/GG expressed less Tollip. Upon IL-13 and RV16 treatment, cells with AG/GG (vs. AA) produced more IL-8 and expressed less antiviral genes, which was coupled with increased NF-κB activity and decreased expression of LC3, a hallmark of the autophagic pathway. Tollip co-localized and interacted with LC3. Inhibition of autophagy decreased antiviral genes in IL-13- and RV16-treated cells. Upon HDM and RV1B, Tollip knockout (vs. wild-type) mice demonstrated higher levels of lung neutrophilic inflammation and viral load, but lower levels of antiviral gene expression. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE Our data suggest that Tollip SNP rs5743899 may predict varying airway response to RV infection in asthma.

Abstract
SETTING Community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) is a common cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. While interactions among bacterial pathogens in the respiratory tract have been studied, the impact of polybacterial aetiology on mortality has not been fully elucidated. OBJECTIVE To investigate the impact of polybacterial aetiology on mortality, prevalence, microbial patterns and clinical characteristics among CAP patients. DESIGN Retrospective data analysis. RESULTS Bacterial aetiology was established in 711 (46.0%) of 1544 enrolled hospitalised CAP patients. Of these, polybacterial aetiology was identified in 89 (12.5%): Streptococcus pneumoniae was the most frequently identified pathogen (n = 55, 61.8%). The most prevalent microbial combination was S. pneumoniae and Haemophilus influenzae (n = 19, 21.3%). Alcoholism and lack of previous antibiotic therapy were independent predictors of polybacterial aetiology. The proportion of patients with severe pneumonia was significantly higher in the polybacterial aetiology group than in the monobacterial group. Multivariate analysis showed that polybacterial aetiology was a predictor of 30-day mortality (OR 2.14, 95%CI 1.07-4.24, P = 0.030), independently of severe pneumonia status, pneumonia severity index, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and inappropriate empirical therapy. CONCLUSION Polybacterial CAP tends to advance in severity, and indicates adverse outcomes.

Abstract
Bacillus cereus, an opportunistic pathogen, can cause fatal infection. However, B. cereus bloodstream infections (BSIs) have not been well characterised. From 2008 to 2013, B. cereus isolates from all of the specimens and patients with B. cereus BSIs were identified. Environmental samples were collected to detect B. cereus contamination. We also characterised the clinical presentation of B. cereus BSI through analyses of risk factors for BSI and mortality. A total of 143 clinical B. cereus isolates was detected. Fifty-one patients with nosocomial infections were diagnosed as B. cereus BSI, and 37 had contaminated blood cultures. The number of B. cereus isolates and BSI patients was significantly greater from June to September than from January to April (3.4 vs. 1.0 per month and 1.4 vs. 0.2, respectively). All BSIs were nosocomial and related to central or peripheral vascular catheter. Urinary catheter [odds ratio (OR) 6.93, 95 % confidence interval (CI) 2.40-20.0] was the independent risk factor associated with BSI patients when compared to patients regarded as contaminated. In-hospital mortality among BSI patients was 20 % and was associated with urinary catheter (OR 12.3, 95 % CI 0.67-225, p=0.045) and higher Charlson index (OR 1.99, 95 % CI 1.26-3.12). The number of B. cereus isolates and BSI increased during summer. Inpatients with indwelling vascular or urinary catheters should be carefully monitored for potential B. cereus BSIs.

Abstract
An anterior mediastinal sarcoma is a very rare type of mediastinal tumor. A 45-year-old female visited our hospital with swelling in the right anterior chest wall. Radiographically, the tumor was found to originate from the thymus and to infiltrate to the major pectoral muscle through the 1st intercostal space. Positron emission tomography revealed fluorodeoxyglucose accumulation at a standardized uptake maximum value of 16.1. Percutaneous needle biopsy showed the pathological findings of sarcoma. The tumor was resected along with the thymus and chest wall tissues including the right hemi-manubrium of the sternum, clavicle head, 1st and second ribs, and major pectoral muscle. After 4 months, tumor relapse occurred at the site of needle biopsy and additional resection was performed. At 10 months after the 2nd surgery, the patient was free from disease. From histologic and immunohistochemical findings, the tumor was diagnosed as spindle cell sarcoma.

Abstract
Radical surgery for thoracic oesophageal cancer is highly invasive and often leads to respiratory complications; thoracoscopic surgery is a less-invasive alternative. We examined the need for chest physical therapy (CPT) after thoracoscopic oesophagectomy. Thirty-six consecutive patients, randomly selected for either thoracotomy or thoracoscopic surgery, were included in a randomized clinical trial and received CPT under the same protocol. During short-term post-operative follow-up, both groups showed a marked reduction in respiratory function and responded to CPT to the same extent, although 2 weeks after surgery some parameters of respiratory function were significantly higher in the thoracoscopy group. Thoracoscopic surgery has been reported to be less invasive than standard thoracotomy, but our results suggest that the procedure is also invasive with respect to respiratory function and that CPT should be performed before and after thoracoscopic surgery.

Abstract
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and problems of the embolization for cerebral arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) with diluted cyanoacrylate adhesives. Twelve consecutive AVM cases were treated with N-butyl-2-cyanoacrylate (NBCA) glues between January 1997 and July 1998. The mean age of the patients was 37 years old. Intracerebral hemorrhage was the presenting symptom in seven cases, seizure in three, headache in one and mental deterioration in one. According to the classification of Spetzler and Martin, seven were Grade 11, five were Grade III. We used a mixture of NBCA (normally 25% Histoacryl, 75% Ethidol) for embolization. Microcatheter was navigated into the nidus and the tip of the catheter was set in a wedged position. Then the glue was injected using complete column technique. Nineteen sessions of embolization were performed in 12 patients. The mean volume of each nidus was reduced from 22.5 ml to 3.4 ml (85%) after embolization. Four cases were cured by embolization alone. Surgical resection was performed after embolization without any residual nidus in three cases. Five were treated with stereotactic radiosurgery following embolization. One was completely cured in 18 months after and the other four have been decreasing their sizes of nidus. One case was suffered from delayed intracerebral hemorrhage three days after embolization, and resulted in mild hemiparesis and memory disturbance. The others had no complications and were clinically improved or unchanged after embolization. It is possible to embolize the nidus of AVMs more accurately and safely with diluted mixture of NBCA, compared with the method using relatively higher concentration of NBCA glues. This technique is useful and effective method for the treatment of AVMs.

Abstract
This study measured the dose attenuation of a newly developed vacuum cushion for intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) of prostate cancer, and verified the effect of dose-correction accuracy in a radiation treatment planning system (RTPS). The new cushion was filled with polystyrene foams inflated 15-fold (Sφ ≒ 1 mm) to reduce contraction caused by air suction and was compared to normal polystyrene foam inflated to 50-fold (Sφ ≒ 2 mm). The dose attenuation at several thicknesses of compression bag filled with normal and low-inflation materials was measured using an ionization chamber; and then the calculated RTPS dose was compared to ionization chamber measurements, while the new cushion was virtually included as region of interest in the calculation area. The dose attenuation rate of the normal cushion was 0.010 %/mm (R (2) = 0.9958), compared to 0.031 %/mm (R (2) = 0.9960) in the new cushion. Although the dose attenuation rate of the new cushion was three times that of the normal cushion, the high agreement between calculated dose by RTPS and ionization chamber measurements was within approximately 0.005 %/mm. Thus, the results of the current study indicate that the new cushion may be effective in clinical use for dose calculation accuracy in RTPS.

Abstract
Abstract
BACKGROUND: In neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) for early breast cancer, the pathological response rate in estrogen receptor (ER)-positive tumors has been low in comparison with those of ER-negative tumors. Therefore, surrogate makers other than the pCR rate are needed during NAC for luminal breast cancer. Using MRI, we analyzed the patterns of tumor shrinkage after NAC as a surrogate prognostic factor in low grade luminal breast cancer. METHODS: Of 854 patients who had received NAC in a single institute from Jan. 2000 to Dec. 2009, 183 patients with low grade luminal breast cancer were retrospectively evaluated for this study. They were defined as ER and/or PgR positive in more than 10% of cancer cells and HER2 negative (IHC 0, 1+ or FISH <2.0) with nuclear grade 1 and 2. RESULTS: The median observation period was 67.9 months following surgery, and recurrence was observed in 31 patients (16.9%). The median age was 49 (22-76) years. One hundred eighty patients received anthracycline-containing chemotherapy, and 158 received taxane. There were 16 deaths (8.7%) related to breast cancer. We categorized the patterns of tumor shrinkage by MRI into 6 types: concentric shrinkage (CS), diffuse decrease (DD), reduction to small foci (RSF), decrease of intensity only (DIO), no change (NC), and enlargement (EL). According to our categorization, CS occurred in 97 (53.0%), RSF in 7 (3.8%), DD in 62 (33.9%), DIO in 7 (3.8%), NC in 5 (2.7%), and EL in 5 (2.7%). As expected, there were statistically significant differences in both the median DFS and OS in each pattern of tumor shrinkage (p <0.001 and p=0.001, respectively); in particular, the CS pattern had excellent prognosis. Multivariate analysis demonstrated that concentric shrinkage was the only significant good prognostic factor for OS (p=0.015). CONCLUSIONS: Tumor shrinkage patterns as revealed by MRI could be important surrogate prognostic factors for NAC in early low grade luminal breast cancer.

Abstract
Abstract
Background:
Taselisib (GDC-0032) is an orally bioavailable, potent and selective phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) inhibitor. Preclinical data showed that taselisib had increased antitumor activity against PIK3CA (gene encoding the PI3Kα isoform) mutant tumors. This study aimed to investigate the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics (PK) of taselisib as monotherapy and in combination with fulvestrant in Japanese patients (pts).
Materials and methods:
A 3+3 design was used. In Phase Ia, pts with advanced solid tumors received taselisib tablet monotherapy (2, 4 or 6 mg once daily [QD]), and safety and PK were evaluated. In Phase Ib, pts with hormone receptor-positive locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer received taselisib (2 or 4 mg QD) in combination with fulvestrant (500 mg at a time), and safety and PK were evaluated. Maximal administered doses of 6 mg QD as a single agent and 4 mg QD in combination with fulvestrant were based upon prior clinical trial experience with taselisib (Juric D. et al. AACR 2013, Abstract LB-64; Juric D. et al. SABCS 2013, Abstract PD1-3).
Results:
As of 15 Mar 2015, 9 pts (PIK3CA mutant: 2 pts) were enrolled in Phase Ia and 3 pts in Phase Ib. Phase Ia dose-escalation study has been completed and Phase Ib is ongoing.
In Phase Ia, no dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) was observed at any dose level tested (maximum administered dose of 6 mg QD). Common (≥3 pts) adverse reactions (ARs) were stomatitis (4 pts), rash (3 pts) and diarrhea (3 pts); the only Grade ≥3 AR was neutropenia (1 pt). Partial response was observed in 1 pt who received taselisib 4 mg and had a PIK3CA mutant breast tumor. Stable disease was observed in 4 pts. Cmax and AUC indicated a dose-proportional PK profile of taselisib within the dose range tested. Moreover, taselisib PK in Japanese pts was consistent with the PK reported from North American and European pts (Juric D. et al. AACR 2013, Abstract LB-64).
In Phase Ib, 3 pts received taselisib 2 mg in combination with fulvestrant and no DLT was observed. Preliminary ARs were similar to those with monotherapy and no Grade ≥3 AR was reported. Confirmation of tolerability of taselisib 4 mg in combination with fulvestrant is under evaluation.
Conclusion:
Taselisib monotherapy was well tolerated in Japanese pts up to a dose of 6 mg, which is the recommended dose in non-Japanese pts. Promising preliminary activity of monotherapy was observed in advanced solid tumors, especially in a pt with PIK3CA mutant tumor. The combination of taselisib 2 mg with fulvestrant is well tolerated. Investigation of tolerability of taselisib 4 mg in combination with fulvestrant is ongoing. Final results of this study will be presented here at the Symposium this year.

Abstract
Nanoparticles have been used for many functional materials in nano-sciences and photo-catalyzing surface chemistry. The titanium oxide nanoparticles will be useful for the treatment of tumor by laser and/or ultrasound as the sensitizers in nano-medicine. We have studied the combination therapy of photo- and sono-dynamic therapies in an animal tumor model. Oral-administration of two sensitizers titanium oxide, 0.2%-TiO2 nanoparticles for sono-dynamic and 1 mM 5-aminolevulinic acid for photodynamic therapies have resulted in the best combination therapeutic effects for the cancer treatment. Our light microscopic and Raman spectroscopic studies revealed that the titanium nanoparticles were distributed inside the blood vessel of the cancer tissue (1-3 μm sizes). Among these nanoparticles with a broad size distribution, only particular-sized particles could penetrate through the blood vessel of the cancer tissue, while other particles may only exhibit the side effects in the model mouse. Therefore, it may be necessary to separate the optimum size particles. For this purpose we have separated TiO2 nanoparticles by countercurrent chromatography with a flat coiled column (1.6 mm ID) immersed in an ultrasonic bath (42 KHz). Separation was performed with a two-phase solvent system composed of 1-butanol-acetic acid-water at a volume ratio of 4:1:5 at a flow rate of 0.1 ml/min. Countercurrent chromatographic separation yielded fractions containing particle aggregates at 31 and 4400 nm in diameter.

Abstract
We studied the electronic and nuclear dynamics of I-containing organic molecules induced by intense hard X-ray pulses at the XFEL facility SACLA in Japan. The interaction with the intense XFEL pulse causes absorption of multiple X-ray photons by the iodine atom, which results in the creation of many electronic vacancies (positive charges) via the sequential electronic relaxation in the iodine, followed by intramolecular charge redistribution. In a previous study we investigated the subsequent fragmentation by Coulomb explosion of the simplest I-substituted hydrocarbon, iodomethane (CH3I). We carried out three-dimensional momentum correlation measurements of the atomic ions created via Coulomb explosion of the molecule and found that a classical Coulomb explosion model including charge evolution (CCE-CE model), which accounts for the concerted dynamics of nuclear motion and charge creation/charge redistribution, reproduces well the observed momentum correlation maps of fragment ions emitted after XFEL irradiation. Then we extended the study to 5-iodouracil (C4H3IN2O2, 5-IU), which is a more complex molecule of biological relevance, and confirmed that, in both CH3I and 5-IU, the charge build-up takes about 10 fs, while the charge is redistributed among atoms within only a few fs. We also adopted a self-consistent charge density-functional based tight-binding (SCC-DFTB) method to treat the fragmentations of highly charged 5-IU ions created by XFEL pulses. Our SCC-DFTB modeling reproduces well the experimental and CCE-CE results. We have also investigated the influence of the nuclear dynamics on the charge redistribution (charge transfer) using nonadiabatic quantum-mechanical molecular dynamics (NAQMD) simulation. The time scale of the charge transfer from the iodine atomic site to the uracil ring induced by nuclear motion turned out to be only ∼5 fs, indicating that, besides the molecular Auger decay in which molecular orbitals delocalized over the iodine site and the uracil ring are involved, the nuclear dynamics also play a role for ultrafast charge redistribution. The present study illustrates that the CCE-CE model as well as the SCC-DFTB method can be used for reconstructing the positions of atoms in motion, in combination with the momentum correlation measurement of the atomic ions created via XFEL-induced Coulomb explosion of molecules.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE West syndrome is an epileptic encephalopathy characterized by epileptic spasms, a specific pattern on electroencephalography of hypsarrhythmia, and developmental regression. Our aim was to assess white matter abnormalities in West syndrome of unknown etiology. We hypothesized that diffusion tensor imaging reveals white matter abnormalities, especially in patients with poor seizure and developmental outcomes. MATERIALS AND METHODS We enrolled 23 patients with new-onset West syndrome of unknown etiology. DTI was performed at 12 and 24 months of age. Fractional anisotropy images were compared with those of controls by using tract-based spatial statistics. We compared axial, radial, and mean diffusivity between patients and controls in the fractional anisotropy skeleton. We determined correlations of these parameters with developmental quotient, electroencephalography, and seizure outcomes. We also compared DTI with hypometabolism on fluorodeoxyglucose positron-emission tomography. RESULTS At 12 months of age, patients showed widespread fractional anisotropy reductions and higher radial diffusivity in the fractional anisotropy skeleton with a significant difference on tract-based spatial statistics. The developmental quotient at 12 months of age correlated positively with fractional anisotropy and negatively with radial and mean diffusivity. Patients with seizure and abnormal findings on electroencephalography after initial treatments had lower fractional anisotropy and higher radial diffusivity. At 24 months, although tract-based spatial statistics did not show significant differences between patients and controls, tract-based spatial statistics in the 10 patients with a developmental quotient of <70 had significant fractional anisotropy reduction. In patients with unilateral temporal lobe hypometabolism on PET, tract-based spatial statistics showed greater fractional anisotropy reduction in the temporal lobe ipsilateral to the side of PET hypometabolism. CONCLUSIONS Diffuse abnormal findings on DTI at 12 months of age suggest delayed myelination as a key factor underlying abnormal findings on DTI. Conversely, asymmetric abnormal findings on DTI at 24 months may reflect underlying focal pathologies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to evaluate whether MRI at 3 T with superparamagnetic iron oxide (SPIO) enhancement is an accurate and useful method for detecting metastases in sentinel nodes identified by CT-lymphography (CT-LG) in patients with breast cancer. The results were compared with those obtained using CT-LG alone and diagnosing metastasis according to size criteria. METHODS Patients with clinically node-negative breast cancer were included. Sentinel nodes identified by CT-LG were evaluated prospectively using SPIO-enhanced MRI at 3 T. Sentinel node size was measured on CT-LG, and a node larger than 5 mm in short-axis diameter was considered metastatic. Sentinel nodes localized by CT-LG were removed, and imaging results and histopathological findings were compared. RESULTS Sentinel nodes were identified successfully by CT-LG in 69 (99 per cent) of 70 patients. All 19 patients with a finding of metastasis in sentinel nodes at pathology were also shown to have metastases on MRI. Forty-eight of 50 patients with non-metastatic sentinel nodes diagnosed at pathology were classified as having non-metastatic nodes on MRI. On a patient-by-patient basis, the sensitivity, specificity and accuracy of MRI for the diagnosis of sentinel node metastases were 100, 96 and 97 per cent; respective values for CT-LG were 79, 56 and 62 per cent. The specificity and accuracy of MRI were superior to those of CT-LG (P < 0·001 and P = 0·002 respectively). CONCLUSION SPIO-enhanced MRI at 3 T is useful for accurate diagnosis of metastatic sentinel nodes, indicating that sentinel node biopsy may be avoided in patients with breast cancer who have non-metastatic sentinel nodes on imaging.

Abstract
The present study aimed to investigate the effects of single or continuous administration of a neurokinin 3 receptor agonist, senktide, on hormonal and follicular dynamics in follicular phase goats. Goats were injected with PGF2α in the luteal phase and treated with an intravaginal progesterone device for 10 d. At 12 h after the cessation of progesterone treatment, the goats received a single intravenous injection of senktide (200 nmol, n = 4) or vehicle (n = 4), or continuous intravenous infusion of senktide (20 nmol/min, n = 6) or vehicle (n = 6) for 6 h. Blood sampling and ovarian ultrasonography were performed during the experiment. A single injection of senktide did not influence the number of luteinizing hormone (LH) pulses and mean LH concentration. On the other hand, continuous injection of senktide caused a sustained increase in LH secretion, and mean LH concentration in samples collected at 10-min intervals for 6 h after the start of infusion was higher than that of vehicle-treated goats (2.8 ± 1.3 vs 1.0 ± 0.6 ng/mL, P < 0.01). In 4 of 6 goats, LH concentrations reached their peaks during the 6-h senktide infusion, and ovulation was observed at 48 h after the start of infusion without estrous behavior. The remaining 2 senktide-treated goats and all vehicle-treated goats showed estrus and ovulated at 72 or 96 h after treatment. These results suggest that continuous infusion of senktide in follicular phase goats can cause a sustained increase in LH and advance the time of ovulation.

Abstract
UNLABELLED We investigated the incidence of fragility fractures from 2010 to 2012 in Sakaiminato, Japan. The incidence rates of limb fractures in Sakaiminato were lower than in Caucasian populations but had increased relative to data obtained in Japan in the 1990s. Clinical vertebral fractures occurred at higher rates in Sakaiminato than in Caucasian populations. INTRODUCTION To elucidate the incidence and prognosis of fragility fractures in Sakaiminato, Japan. METHODS A survey of all hip, distal radius, proximal humerus, and clinical vertebral fractures was performed from 2010 to 2012 in patients aged 50 or older in Sakaiminato city, Tottori prefecture, Japan. The age- and gender-specific incidence rates (per 100,000 person-years) were calculated based on the population of Sakaiminato city each year. The incidence rates of hip, distal radius, and proximal humerus fractures were compared with previous reports. We conducted a follow-up study assessing patients within 1 year following their initial treatment at two Sakaiminato hospitals. RESULTS The age-adjusted incidence rates in population aged 50 years or older (per 100,000 person-years) of hip, distal radius, proximal humerus, and clinical vertebral fractures were, respectively, 217, 82, 26, and 412 in males and 567, 432, 96, and 1229 in females. Age-specific incidence rates of hip, distal radius, and proximal humerus fractures all increased since the 1990s. Our study also revealed that anti-osteoporotic pharmacotherapy was prescribed 1 year post-fracture at rates of 29, 20, 30, and 50 % for patients with hip, distal radius, proximal humerus, and clinical vertebral fractures, respectively. CONCLUSIONS The incidence rates of limb fractures in Sakaiminato were substantially lower than Caucasian populations in northern Europe but had increased relative to data obtained in Japan in the 1990s. Unlike upper and lower limb fractures, clinical vertebral fractures occurred at higher rates in our study population than in other Asian and North European countries.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of bacterial coinfection on patients with pneumococcal pneumonia. We retrospectively analyzed the incidence, clinical features, microbial distributions, and outcomes of patients with bacterial coinfection in a cohort of 433 hospitalized patients with pneumococcal pneumonia. Eighty-five patients (19.6 %) were diagnosed with bacterial coinfection; the most frequent pathogens were Haemophilus influenzae (25 patients, 33.3 %), methicillin-susceptible Staphylococcus aureus (MSSA) (15 patients, 20.0 %), and Moraxella catarrhalis (13 patients, 17.3 %). The CURB-65 score and pneumonia severity index (PSI) were significantly higher in patients with bacterial coinfection (both P < 0.001). In addition, the proportion of patients with bacterial coinfection who met the Infectious Disease Society of America (IDSA)/American Thoracic Society (ATS) severe pneumonia criteria was significantly higher (P < 0.001). Multivariate logistic regression analysis identified three risk factors for bacterial coinfection in patients with pneumococcal pneumonia: alcoholism (odds ratio [OR], 5.12; 95 % confidence interval (95 % CI), 1.60-16.4; P = 0.006), hospitalization for 2 days or more within 90 days preceding admission (OR, 2.02; 95 % CI, 1.03-3.98; P = 0.041), and residence in a nursing home or extended care facility (OR, 3.22; 95 % CI, 1.48-6.97; P = 0.003). Multivariate analysis for 30-day mortality showed that bacterial coinfection was a significant adverse prognostic factor (OR, 2.50; 95 % CI, 1.13-5.53; P = 0.023), independent of IDSA/ATS severe pneumonia, PSI, or healthcare-associated pneumonia. In conclusion, bacterial coinfection may have an adverse impact on severity and outcomes of pneumococcal pneumonia.

Abstract
To clarify the mechanism of the antihypertensive effect of oral Ca loading, we studied the effect of Ca supplementation on salt-induced blood pressure elevations in patients with essential hypertension and DOCA-salt hypertensive rats. When the diet was changed from low to high salt (300 mEq/day), the percent increase in mean blood pressure was smaller (p less than 0.01) in the Ca-supplemented (2,160 mg/day) patients than in the Ca-restricted (250 mg/day) ones. Oral Ca loading resulted in a smaller weight gain, a greater urinary sodium excretion, and an increase in red cell Mg. In the experimental study, high Ca (4% CaCl2) intake attenuated the blood pressure elevation in DOCA-salt-treated rats, accompanied with an increase in urinary sodium excretion, with the resultant attenuation in intra- and extracellular sodium retention. The decrease in catecholamine contents of hearts was improved, and a higher survival rate was observed in Ca-supplemented DOCA-salt rats. The results suggest that Ca supplementation may prevent a rise in BP in salt-dependent hypertension by inducing natriuresis with the resultant attenuation in sodium retention. The altered intracellular Mg level in hypertensive patients and the normalization of enhanced sympathetic nervous activity in DOCA-salt rats may, in part, be involved in its mechanism.
