Abstract
This study was undertaken to evaluate the postural effect on ventilatory responses during both supine and sitting exercise. Seven healthy men performed two exercise tests utilizing the ramp protocol (20 watts/min) with a cycle ergometer in each position. The results were as follows: The oxygen uptake and the oxygen pulse measured at 180 watts and at anaerobic threshold in the sitting were significantly higher compared with those in the supine position. The average of carbon-dioxide output, minute ventilation and tidal volume at lower exercise intensities showed higher values in the sitting compared with those in the supine position, whereas there were no significant differences for respiratory rate. There was significant difference in the slope of the minute ventilation to carbon-dioxide output plot between sitting and supine position. In conclusion, the higher minute ventilation in the sitting position was mainly performed by higher tidal volume which may counteract the effects of an increase in physiological dead space. The lower slope of the minute ventilation to carbon-dioxide output plot which shows more effective ventilation in the supine position may be due to decreased physiological dead space and higher diffusion capacity.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to evaluate cardiopulmonary responses during submaximal cycle exercise at various angles of backrest inclination. Ten healthy Japanese men of mean age 25.9 yrs, height 170.6 cm, and body mass 66.1 kg, performed cycle exercises at a constant workload which reached the anaerobic threshold, at 20 degrees, 40 degrees, and 60 degrees of backrest inclination from the vertical plane, but the angle between the seat and back rest was kept at 110 degrees. The results were as follows: 1) Both cardiac output and stroke volume showed a higher value at the resting control state and during exercise as the backrest angle increased. 2) Oxygen consumption, carbon dioxide output, heart rate, gas exchange ratio, and oxygen pulse were not affected by the angle of backrest inclination. 3) Tidal volume at 20 degrees of backrest inclination was higher than at 60 degrees. 4) No significant differences were found in minute ventilation between each backrest angle. These findings suggest that changes in the backrest angle significantly alter cardiopulmonary parameters at rest and during exercise; in particular, an angle difference of 40 degrees may be enough to alter tidal volume, cardiac output and stroke volume, but not the minute ventilation.

Abstract
N-acetyl-seryl-aspartyl-lysyl-proline (AcSDKP) is an endogenous peptide released from its precursor (thymosin-β4) by prolyl oligopeptidase. AcSDKP is a natural inhibitor of pluripotent hematopoietic stem cell proliferation and is normally found in human plasma. AcSDKP has been shown to be a potent angiogenic factor and to suppress renal fibroblast proliferation. Impairment of renal function has been suggested to have a significant impact on plasma AcSDKP level. The aim of this study was to assess whether improvement of renal function after kidney transplantation has an impact on plasma AcSDKP-like immunoreactive substance (IS) level. Fourteen patients with end stage renal disease (ESRD) who were scheduled to undergo the first kidney allograft transplantation were enrolled. Plasma AcSDKP-IS levels were measured before and 3, 7, 10, 14, 21, 30, 60 and 90 d after kidney transplantation. Plasma AcSDKP-IS level decreased significantly from day 3 after kidney transplantation compared to before kidney transplantation. Creatinine clearance increased significantly from day 7 after kidney transplantation. A significant negative correlation was observed between creatinine clearance and plasma AcSDKP-IS level from before transplantation to 90 d after kidney transplantation. Stepwise multiple regression analysis identified creatinine clearance as the only significant independent factor associated with plasma AcSDKP-IS levels. These results suggest that recovery of kidney function after kidney transplantation may lead to a decrease in plasma AcSDKP level in patients with ESRD, and that plasma AcSDKP level may depend largely on renal function.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The target trough concentration of vancomycin in patients with febrile neutropenia has not been reported. The aim of this study was to estimate the target trough concentration for febrile neutropenia in patients with hematological malignancy. METHODS In this retrospective, single-center, observational cohort study, 63 hospitalized patients with hematological malignancy who were treated with vancomycin for febrile neutropenia due to bacteriologically documented or presumptive Gram-positive infections were analyzed. RESULTS A significant difference in the first trough concentration of vancomycin was observed between the response and non-response groups, and between the nephrotoxicity and non-nephrotoxicity groups. Multiple logistic regression analyses identified the first trough concentration as the only independent variable associated with clinical efficacy and nephrotoxicity of vancomycin. The areas under the ROC curves were 0.72 and 0.83 for clinical efficacy and nephrotoxicity, respectively. The cut-off values of the first trough concentration were 11.1 μg/ml for clinical efficacy (sensitivity 60%, specificity 87%) and 11.9 μg/ml for nephrotoxicity (sensitivity 77%, specificity 82%). CONCLUSIONS These results suggest a relationship of trough vancomycin concentration with clinical efficacy and incidence of nephrotoxicity. We propose a target trough vancomycin concentration of around 11.5 μg/ml for febrile neutropenia in patients with hematological malignancy.

Abstract
CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein alpha (CEBPA) mutations are a favorable prognostic factor in adult acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients; however, few studies have examined their significance in pediatric AML patients. Here we examined the CEBPA mutation status and clinical outcomes of pediatric AML patients treated in the AML-05 study. We found that 47 (14.9%) of the 315 evaluable patients harbored mutations in CEBPA; 26 cases (8.3%) harbored a single mutation (CEBPA-single) and 21 (6.7%) harbored double or triple mutations (CEBPA-double). After excluding core-binding factor-AML cases, patients harboring CEBPA mutations showed better overall survival (OS; P=0.048), but not event-free survival (EFS; P=0.051), than wild-type patients. Multivariate analysis identified CEBPA-single and CEBPA-double as independent favorable prognostic factors for EFS in the total cohort (hazard ratio (HR): 0.47 and 0.33; P=0.02 and 0.01, respectively). CEBPA-double was also an independent favorable prognostic factor for OS (HR: 0.30; P=0.04). CEBPA-double remained an independent favorable factor for EFS (HR: 0.28; P=0.04) in the normal karyotype cohort. These results suggest that CEBPA mutations, particularly CEBPA-double, are an independent favorable prognostic factor in pediatric AML patients, which will have important implications for risk-stratified therapy.

Abstract
Abstract
The crystal structures of two binuclear iron(III) complexes with linear μ-oxo bridge, Fe2OCl2 (tfpy)2 (ClO4)2 ·2CH3CN and Fe2OCl2(epy)2(ClO4)2 were determined, where (tfpy) and (epy) represent N,N-bis(2-pyridylmethyl)-tetrahydrofurfurylamine and N,N-bis(2-pyridylmethyl)-2-ethoxyethylamine, respectively. Their structural features are essentially the same as that of the corresponding linear binuclear complex with (tpa)-complex, Fe2OCl2(tpa)2(ClO4)2, where (tpa) is tris(2-pyridylmethyl)amine; the ligands (tfpy) and (epy) act as a tetradentate tripod-like ligand, and Fe-O (ethereal oxygen atom; these are located at the trans-position of bridging oxo-oxygen atom) distances are 2.209(4) and 2.264(2) Å for (tfpy) and (epy) compounds, respectively. These two (tfpy) and (epy) complexes exhibited much higher activity for the oxygenation of cyclohexane in the presence of hydrogen peroxide than that of the (tpa) complex. In contrast to this, the former two complexes exhibit negligible activity for the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide, whereas the catalase-like function of the (tpa) compound is remarkable. These are indicating that an active species for oxygenation of cyclohexane, which is assumed to be an iron(III)-hydroperoxide adduct with η1-coordination mode, should be different from that is operating for decomposition of hydrogen peroxide; for the latter case formation of a (μ-η1:η1-peroxo)diiron(III) species being stressed. The EHMO calculation showed that electronic interaction between the monodentate hydroperoxide adduct of the binuclear iron(IIl)-(tfpy) compound and the tetrahydrofuran ring of the ligand system may lead to facile peroxide-tetrahydrofuran linkage formation, and the interaction described above should promote the O-O cleavage of the peroxide ion heterolytically. Based on these discussions, it was concluded that heterolytic O-O bond cleavage of the iron(III)-hydroperoxide adduct caused by electronic interaction with organic moiety containing an ethereal-oxygen and by approach of the substrate which donates electron to the peroxide adduct should play an important role in producing a high-valent iron-oxo species in these systems. In the case of (tpa) complex, formation of a hydroperoxide adduct linking with the ligand system seems to be unfavorable because of both the steric and electronic reasons.

Abstract
Abstract
The interaction of Ni and Cu atoms with PF3 and CO ligands was investigated by means of ab initio MO calculations. Coupling occurs mainly through the HOMO (8a1 for PF3 and 5 a for CO) levels with the metal 4s and 3dz2 orbitals, if the 3dn-1 4s1 electronic configuration of the metal atom is considered. The estimated M-PF3 bond lengths are 2.0 Å for Ni and 2.5 Å for Cu. Calculations with Ni(3d10) revealed for PF3 a more pronounced electron transfer to the ligand than for CO. The results are consistent with experimental UPS data for mononuclear complexes as well as corresponding adsorption systems. In particular, split-off d-states observed in UPS data for adsorbed PF3 are attributed to the pronounced lowering of the 3d-orbital energy of the metal atom upon interaction with this electropositive ligand.

Abstract
Andersen-Tawil syndrome (ATS) is an inherited disease characterized by ventricular arrhythmias, periodic paralysis, and dysmorphic features. It results from a heterozygous mutation of KCNJ2, but little is known about mosaicism in ATS. We performed genetic analysis of KCNJ2 in 32 ATS probands and their family members and identified KCNJ2 mutations in 25 probands, 20 families who underwent extensive genetic testing. These tests revealed that seven probands carried de novo mutations while 13 carried inherited mutations from their parents. We then specifically assessed a single proband and the respective family. The proband was a 9 year old girl who fulfilled the ATS triad and carried an insertion mutation (p.75_76insThr). We determined that the proband's mother carried a somatic mosaicism and that the proband's younger brother also carried the ATS phenotype with the same insertion mutation. The mother, who exhibited mosaicism, was asymptomatic, although she exhibited Q(T)U prolongation. Mutant allele frequency was 11% as per TA cloning and 17.3% as per targeted deep sequencing. Our observations suggest that targeted deep sequencing is useful for the detection of mosaicism and that the detection of mosaic mutations in parents of apparently sporadic ATS patients can help in the process of genetic counseling.

Abstract
We investigated the relationship between plasma mid-regional pro-adrenomedullin (MR-proADM)-like immunoreactive substance (IS) level and clinical characteristics associated with renal failure or resistance to antihypertensive therapy in stable kidney transplant recipients. Forty-six Japanese kidney transplant recipients who underwent transplantation more than 90 days prior to the study were included. To evaluate resistance to antihypertensive therapy, we calculated the treatment intensity score of the antihypertensive drugs in each recipient. Morning blood samples were collected and plasma MR-proADM-IS levels were measured using an enzyme immunoassay. A significant correlation was observed between plasma MR-proADM-IS level with creatinine clearance or treatment intensity score. Multiple regression analysis identified plasma MR-proADM level and body mass index as significant independent factors associated with treatment intensity score. Plasma MR-proADM level may be a useful biomarker indicating the degree of resistance to antihypertensive therapy.
