Abstract
Abstract
Background
Cancer and cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the most common cause of death in developed countries, and substantial overlap exist in their medical care. However, the detailed and updated information on outcome of cancer patients with cardiovascular disease (CVD), particularly in clinically significant coronary artery disease (CAD) remain unknown.
Purpose
We sought to describe the prevalence and long-term outcomes of cancer patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), which has become a coronerstone in the management of CVD.
Methods
Patient data extracted from a regional prospectiveprocedure-based multicenter registry for PCI was analyzed. A total of 4,455 patients who underwent PCI at 15 hospitals within metropolitan Tokyo from September 2008 to 2012 were followed for 2 years. “Active” cancer patient was defined as having a history of cancer not cured or in remission. We analyzed in acute and stable presentation.The occurrence of clinical outcomes was assessed via Kaplan-Meier survival curve, and Cox-regression hazard model to adjust for known clinical predictors.
Results
Within the studied patients, 173 (3.9%) had a concomitant “active” cancer at the time of intervention. There was a significant difference between the patients with and without active cancer in each situation. In stable presentation, cancer group were older, lower BMI, frequently had silent ischemia, COPD and cerebrovascular/peripheral disease, and less often had dyslipidemia compared with non-cancer group. In acute presentation, cancer group were older, frequently had COPD, CKD, peripheral disease and history of HF compared with non-cancer group. The prescription rate of RAAS inhibitor was lower in the cancer group than in the non-cancer group in acute presentation. Notably, in both acute and stable presentation, these patients had significantly higher risk of all-cause mortality (HR 8.01: 95%, p<0.001 and HR5.53: 95%, p<0.001, respectively), and they were also at higher risk of major cardo- and cerebrovascular events (MACCE; HR2.38, p<0.001, HR2.33, p=0.001), when referenced to non-cancer patients after 2 year of follow-up.
Conclusion
Cancer patient was present in 3.9% of all PCI patients and was strongly associated with both non-cardiac and cardiac adverse events.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
The optimal management of asymptomatic aortic stenosis (AS) remains controversial. The aim of this study is to investigate the prognostic value of exercise stress echocardiography (ESE) in asymptomatic patients with AS.
Purpose
To investigate the additive value of ESE in asymptomatic patients with AS.
Methods and results
We retrospectively enrolled 109 consecutive patients (mean age 73±13 years, 55 men) with AS (aortic valve area ≤1.5cm2) who underwent ESE. Of these, 10 patients referred for aortic valve replacement without symptoms were excluded; finally, 99 conservatively managed patients were enrolled. During the mean follow-up period of 14±11 months, 23 patients (23%) suffered from AS related events. Although no differences in mean pressure gradient at rest and during exercise were found between the patients with and without adverse events, transvalvular flow rate during exercise (Ex-FR) was lower in patients with adverse events than those without adverse events (236±55 ml/sec vs 274±64 ml/sec, P=0.01). Using multivariate Cox regression analysis, low Ex-FR (<270 ml/sec) was an independent predictor for adverse events in patients with asymptomatic AS (hazard ratio: 3.53, P<0.01). The Kaplan–Meier analysis showed that Ex-FR was clearly stratified the event-free survival (Figure, log-rank P<0.01).
K-M curve according to Ex-FR
Conclusion
These results suggested that Ex-FR measured by ESE should play crucial roles in risk stratification in asymptomatic patients with AS.

Abstract
Abstract
Background and purpose
Many reports have examined electrocardiographic (ECG) changes after subarachnoid hemorrhage from long ago; however, there are few reports on the prognosis of patients who have an ECG abnormality. Therefore, in this study, the prognoses of patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage showing abnormal ECG findings were retrospectively analyzed.
Methods
Over 30 months from January 2014 to June 2016, 199 patients (mean age, 61.1±17.0 years; 46.7% male) admitted with a subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) were enrolled. To assess the mechanism underlying abnormal ECG in the SAH, predictor variables, such as demographics (age, sex, and body surface area), hemodynamics (heart rate and systolic blood pressure), blood biochemical results, neurological assessments (Glasgow Coma Scale), and computed tomography (CT) severity classification (World Federation of Neurosurgical Societies classification) were recorded. The subarachnoid hemorrhage was classified into either the cerebral aneurysm rupture group (N=132) or traumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage group (N=67) and analyzed.
Results
In the cerebral aneurysm rupture group, the QT prolongation was significantly increased compared with the traumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage group (424.8±87.7 ms vs. 400.5±95.8 ms, P<0.05). There was a correlation between consciousness level (Glasgow Coma Scale) on admission and QT prolongation, and significant QT prolongation was observed in critical patients (Pearson's correlation coefficient test P=0.04). ST changes correlated with CT classification severity (WFNS classification), and the most severe group (WFNS Grade 5) showed significant ST changes. On admission, the cerebral aneurysm rupture group and 97.0% in the traumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage group.
Conclusions
Significantly prolonged QT and ST changes are noted in patients with severe aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage. The cause of the ECG abnormality in subarachnoid hemorrhage patients is not yet understood. A small number of experimental animal models have shown that electrocardiogram abnormalities associated with subarachnoid hemorrhage develop in the brain stem, and an autonomic nerve abnormality may also be involved.
A D-dimer is positively correlated with both aneurysm trauma and traumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage and may be used for auxiliary diagnosis of a subarachnoid hemorrhage.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Recent research has revealed that reparative (alternatively activated or M2-like) macrophages play an important role in post-myocardial infarction (MI) cardiac repair, proposing that augmentation of these cells will enhance recovery from MI. Transplantation of bone marrow mononuclear cells (BM-MNCs) is an emerging therapy for MI while its therapeutic efficacy in previous clinical trials is not satisfactory. Given that BM-MNCs are a natural source of macrophages, we hypothesized that induced differentiation/polarisation of BM-MNCs to reparative macrophages before transplantation may enhance the effect of BM-MNC transplantation.
Purpose
This study aimed to develop a robust in vitro protocol to produce reparative macrophages from BM-MNCs and to establish the pre-clinical proof of concept data for reparative macrophage transplantation for the treatment of MI.
Methods and results
Mouse BM-MNCs were treated with M-CSF plus IL-4, IL-10, TGF-β1 or combinations of these in vitro. The concomitant M-CSF+IL-4 protocol (both 20ng/ml) produced the highest rate (89.7±0.7%) and number (1.7-fold larger than the original cell number) of CD11b+F4/80+CD206+ macrophages. Expression and secretion of tissue repair-related factors of the produced cells, including IGF-1, TGF-β1, VEGF and IL1-ra, were more extensive compared to BM-MNCs. Then, 5x105 BM-MNC-derived reparative macrophages, 5x105 BM-MNCs, or saline only (control) were intramyocardially injected in a mouse MI model based on coronary artery ligation. At 4 weeks after treatment, echocardiography demonstrated that reparative macrophage transplantation markedly improved cardiac function (left ventricular ejection fraction; 57.2±1.6%, n=11) compared to both BM-MNC transplantation (48.4±1.3%, n=9) and control group (44.4±2.0%, n=9). Histological studies showed that infarct size was the smallest after reparative macrophage transplantation in association with the greatest tissue repair in the peri-infarct myocardium, including augmented microvascular formation, reduced cardiomyocyte hypertrophy and reduced pathological interstitial fibrosis. These were corresponded to amplified myocardial upregulation of tissue repair-related genes. Of note, survival of donor reparative macrophages in the heart post-transplantation was >10-fold greater compared to BM-MNCs. It was also found that reparative macrophage transplantation increased host-derived cardiac reparative macrophages. This might be a part of the mechanism by which reparative macrophage transplantation augmented myocardial repair, and our in vitro antibody neutralisation study indicated that TGF-β1 played a role in this donor macrophage-to-host macrophage pathway.
Conclusion
M-CSF+IL-4 treatment was effective in producing reparative macrophages from BM-MNCs in vitro. Addition of this pre-treatment improved the therapeutic effect of BM-MNC transplantation. Further pre-clinical and clinical development of this advanced cell therapy is warrantied.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Work style, and particularly shift work, can affect an individual's health through disrupting circadian rhythms. Moreover, lifestyle habits including dietary and exercise routines might be altered by irregular shift hours. We thus hypothesized that an individual's lifestyle including working habits could influence the prevalence of visceral fat obesity and the progression of atherosclerosis.
Purpose
The present study investigated how lifestyle and shift work affect the accumulation of visceral fat and the progression of subclinical atherosclerosis in middle-aged workers.
Methods
This study enrolled employees undergoing their periodic health check-up (n=10883). The Cardio-Ankle Vascular Index (CAVI) was measured to assess arterial stiffness, followed by ultrasound examination and computed tomography imaging to measure carotid intima-media thickness (IMT) and visceral fat area (VFA), respectively. Lifestyle was evaluated by the following items: 1) eating breakfast, 2) nighttime eating, 3) regular exercise, 4) habitual drinking, 5) habitual smoking, 6) sleeping hours, and 7) working hours. With regard to work factors, subjects were categorized into fixed daytime workers or shift workers (including subjects working with an irregular schedule, outside of daytime hours, or at nighttime).
Results
Among all subjects enrolled, 6820 subjects were fixed daytime workers and 4063 subjects were shift workers. Most of the employees engaged in fixed daytime work were clerical workers, while the employees engaged in shift work were mainly physical workers in this company. Fixed daytime workers had significantly greater VFA than shift workers, but the prevalence of metabolic syndrome, CAVI values, and carotid IMT were similar between groups. Reduced regular exercise, long sleeping hours, and fixed daytime work were independently associated with visceral fat accumulation by both multivariate regression and logistic regression analyses. However, the logistic regression analysis with the presence of metabolic syndrome as the endpoint revealed that skipping breakfast, reduced regular exercise, long sleeping hours, and short working hours were independent determinants of metabolic syndrome. On the other hand, univariate and multivariate regression analysis showed that habitual smoking, but not shift work, were significantly associated with CAVI and carotid IMT. Logistic regression analysis with the endpoint of carotid atherosclerosis (presence of plaque) showed that habitual smoking was an independent determinant of carotid atherosclerosis.
Conclusions
Reduced regular exercise, long sleeping hours, and fixed daytime work were significantly associated with visceral fat accumulation, while habitual smoking has a consistent association with the progression of atherosclerosis. These findings support the concept that unhealthy lifestyles should be modified before considering intervention in work styles.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction
Mesenchymal stromal cell (MSC) transplantation is a promising treatment to promote myocardial repair. Among various sources, the amnion has an advantage in mass production of high-quality MSCs due to its large initial cell-yield and prenatal nature of isolated cells. In addition to the powerful tissue-repair potential, amnion-derived MSCs (AMSCs) exhibit a robust immunomodulative ability, enabling allogeneic transplantation without immunosuppressive reagents. We here report a novel bioengineering technique to deliver AMSCs for myocardial repair by epicardial placement of self-adhesive, bi-layered, AMSC-incorporating dressings (AMSC-dressing), which is fabricable on-site (Figure A).
Methods and results
AMSC-dressing was fabricated by spreading AMSC suspension on the inner layer of a fibrin sealant film, composed of fibrinogen and thrombin. Due to the resulting adhesive AMSC-fibrin complex, the AMSC-dressing firmly adhered to the heart surface without the need for suture or additional glue. The outer collagen layer of the film facilitated the easy handling and also protected the AMSC-fibrin complex from external damage. We applied a 1 cm2 dressing containing 0, 1, 2 or 4 millions of rat AMSCs to a rat ischemic cardiomyopathy model (4 weeks post coronary artery ligation). Intramyocardial (IM) injection of 4 millions of AMSCs and sham treatment were also conducted. Echocardiography and catheterization consistently demonstrated that AMSC-dressing therapy improved cardiac function and reduced heart dilatation in a dose-dependent manner compared to the sham control. Furthermore, this therapeutic effect exceeded that of IM injection (Figure B). Histological analyses revealed that AMSC-dressing therapy resulted in augmented myocardial tissue repair (increased neovascularization, attenuated pathological fibrosis and reduced cardiomyocyte hypertrophy) compared to IM injection and sham groups. These effects were associated with increased upregulation of a range of tissue repair-related genes including Il10, Cxcl12, Igf1, Timp1, Hif1a, Tgfb, Mmp2, Hgf, Fgf2 and Vegf. Of note, it was elucidated that both initial retention and subsequent survival of donor AMSCs were enhanced by the dressing technique compared to IM injection. In addition, in vitro studies demonstrated that culturing in a fibrin glue not only enhanced upregulation of tissue-repair genes of AMSCs but also improved their survival against environmental stress through activating the Akt/PI3K cell-survival pathway.
Conclusion
AMSC-dressing therapy enhanced both quantity and quality of donor cell engraftment, leading to the augmented therapeutic efficacy, compared to the current method. Furthermore, this technique is user-friendly and requires no specialized equipment at the treating hospital, highlighting its great potential to be a widely-adopted, standard treatment for heart failure. Further development of this advanced cell therapy towards clinical application is justified.

Abstract
In vivo genome editing represents a powerful strategy for both understanding basic biology and treating inherited diseases. However, it remains a challenge to develop universal and efficient in vivo genome-editing tools for tissues that comprise diverse cell types in either a dividing or non-dividing state. Here, we describe a versatile in vivo gene knock-in methodology that enables the targeting of a broad range of mutations and cell types through the insertion of a minigene at an intron of the target gene locus using an intracellularly linearized single homology arm donor. As a proof-of-concept, we focused on a mouse model of premature-aging caused by a dominant point mutation, which is difficult to repair using existing in vivo genome-editing tools. Systemic treatment using our new method ameliorated aging-associated phenotypes and extended animal lifespan, thus highlighting the potential of this methodology for a broad range of in vivo genome-editing applications.

Abstract
This Letter presents the first experimental observation of the attractive strong interaction between a proton and a multistrange baryon (hyperon) Ξ^{-}. The result is extracted from two-particle correlations of combined p-Ξ^{-}⊕p[over ¯]-Ξ[over ¯]^{+} pairs measured in p-Pb collisions at sqrt[s_{NN}]=5.02 TeV at the LHC with ALICE. The measured correlation function is compared with the prediction obtained assuming only an attractive Coulomb interaction and a standard deviation in the range [3.6, 5.3] is found. Since the measured p-Ξ^{-}⊕p[over ¯]-Ξ[over ¯]^{+} correlation is significantly enhanced with respect to the Coulomb prediction, the presence of an additional, strong, attractive interaction is evident. The data are compatible with recent lattice calculations by the HAL-QCD Collaboration, with a standard deviation in the range [1.8, 3.7]. The lattice potential predicts a shallow repulsive Ξ^{-} interaction within pure neutron matter and this implies stiffer equations of state for neutron-rich matter including hyperons. Implications of the strong interaction for the modeling of neutron stars are discussed.

Abstract
The gastrointestinal absorption of phenytoin (PHT), an antiepileptic drug, is often affected by its interaction with co-administered enteral nutrients through a nasogastric (NG) tube, resulting in decreased plasma PHT concentration. In this study, we measured the recovery rate (%) of PHT (Aleviatin® powder) passed through an NG tube when co-administered with distilled water or enteral nutrients (F2α®, Racol® NF, Ensure Liquid® and Renalen® LP). We also measured plasma PHT levels in rats, after oral co-administration of PHT with enteral nutrients. We demonstrate that PHT recovery rate was close to 100 % in all cases after passage through the NG tube. In the rat study, the AUC0→∞ of PHT concentration after oral administration significantly decreased when it was co-administered with F2α® and Racol® NF compared to distilled water. However, the AUC0→∞ of PHT was unchanged when co-administered with F2α® 2 h after initial PHT administration. We therefore conclude that the co-administration of PHT with F2α® and Racol® NF caused a reduction in the absorption of PHT from the gastrointestinal tract to the blood, without adsorption to the NG tube. The administration of enteral nutrients 2 h after PHT is one clear way to prevent a decrease in plasma PHT concentration.

Abstract
Cutaneous ulcers are a common cause of morbidity. We have developed a de novo epithelialization method for treating cutaneous ulcers by means of reprogramming wound-resident mesenchymal cells in vivo into cells able to form a stratified epithelium: induced stratified epithelial progenitors (iSEPs). Administration of 4 transcription factors (DNP63A, GRHL2, TFAP2A, and cMYC) expressed via adeno-associated viral vectors enabled generation of epithelial cells and tissues, thereby acheiving de novo epithelialization from the surfaces of cutaneous ulcers in a mouse model. Generated epithelia, having barrier functions equivalent to the original epidermis, were maintained for more than 6 months. Our findings constitute a proof of concept for future development towards innovative therapies for cutaneous ulcers via de novo epithelialization.

Abstract
This study aimed to reveal the effect of X-irradiation on mitochondrial function in terms of mitochondrial membrane potential (ΔΨm) and ATP productivity. At the cellular level, ΔΨm was quantified using JC-1, a mitochondrial probe that emits red or green fluorescence at high or low ΔΨm sites, respectively. The fluorescence area was quantified for both colors together relative to the whole-cell area of the same cell. The fluorescence areas versus whole-cell areas varied widely among the irradiated cells depending on the X-ray doses received (6 and 10 Gy) and incubation time, although the relative red area to total mitochondrial area was rather constant. Average ATP concentrations temporarily increased and showed a maximum at 48 h after irradiation for largely G1-arrested cells. These results indicate that an increase of mitochondrial volume per cell, not simply an increase in their active sites, is induced by irradiation, resulting in enhanced ATP production.

Abstract
University lectures are mainly passive in nature, and there are few subjects in which students need to learn and function independently. Tutorial education and related activities at universities that specialize in medical and pharmaceutical training have been actively carried out, and lectures in conjunction with practical skills are gradually being developed, although progress has been slow in this area. In past years, our biochemistry practice classes have been evaluated in reports dealing with experiments and written examinations, as is done in other universities. However, using this methodology, we are not able to evaluate the extent to which students master biochemical experimental skills. To address this, we introduced a basic skill test to our biochemical curriculum for the first time. Our exams contributed to a deeper understanding of student skills and could be good tools for evaluating the degree of understanding of the students. The students understood the contents of the training well and felt interested in research in the field of basic medicine. Thus, we conclude that introducing practical testing to biochemical practice was effective for medical students in the field of biochemistry. © 2019 International Union of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 47(3):279-287, 2019.

Abstract
Angular correlations between heavy-flavor decay electrons and charged particles at midrapidity (|η|<0.8) are measured in p-Pb collisions at sqrt[s_{NN}]=5.02 TeV. The analysis is carried out for the 0%-20% (high) and 60%-100% (low) multiplicity ranges. The jet contribution in the correlation distribution from high-multiplicity events is removed by subtracting the distribution from low-multiplicity events. An azimuthal modulation remains after removing the jet contribution, similar to previous observations in two-particle angular correlation measurements for light-flavor hadrons. A Fourier decomposition of the modulation results in a positive second-order coefficient (v_{2}) for heavy-flavor decay electrons in the transverse momentum interval 1.5<p_{T}<4 GeV/c in high-multiplicity events, with a significance larger than 5σ. The results are compared with those of charged particles at midrapidity and those of inclusive muons at forward rapidity. The v_{2} measurement of open heavy-flavor particles at midrapidity in small collision systems could provide crucial information to help interpret the anisotropies observed in such systems.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Intra-tumor heterogeneity, tumor biology, and microenvironment in triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) has been reported to be predictive and prognostic factors. However, it is not well known how these factors are correlated each other according to response to chemotherapy and their prognosis. The aim of this study was to assess the predictive and prognostic impact of these factors in TNBC.
Method
Biopsy samples before neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) from 59 TNBC patients who underwent surgery after NAC from 2001 to 2007 were retrospectively assessed. For tumor biology, tumors were classified as Hormonal related luminal androgen receptor (LAR) if >10% staining of AR, Basal-like if positive for cytokeratin 5/6 and EGFR, and Others. Claudin 1 and p16 expression levels were assessed for intra-tumor heterogeneity. and stromal tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (Str-Tils) levels for tumor-microenvironment were also assessed as low for ≤10%, Intermediate for 10-49%, and high for >50%.The predictive and prognostic impact of clinicopathological factors including age, nuclear grade (NG), lymph node status, were also assessed. Overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) were estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method and were compared between groups using the log-rank test.
Results
A median overall survival period of the 59 patients was 98 month(6 -172 month).Eighteen (30.5%) were classified in LAR, 16 (27.1%) in Basal-like, and 25 (42.4%) in Others. According to response to NAC, 10 patients (16.9%) achieved pathologic complete response (pCR). These biological classifications were not associated with pCR rate (p=0.135). high-p16 had significantly high pCR rate (p=0.046).However, Str-Tils level was not associated with pCR rate. Patients with lymph node metastasis had significantly low pCR rate (p=0.017).In terms of their prognosis, age<50 had significantly shorter OS and DFS than that of age>50 (OS: p=0.023, DFS: p=0.027). NG3 had a trend of short OS compared to NG 1 or 2 (NG 1 vs 3, OS: p=0.053, and NG 2 vs 3, OS: p=0.073). There were no difference of their prognosis among three tumor biology classifications except Basal-like had significantly shorter OS than that of LAR (LAR vs Basal OS:p=0.041, DFS:p=0.574, LAR vs Others OS:p=0.407, DFS:p=0.866, Basal vs Others OS:p=0.162, DFS:p=0.713).Claudin 1 and p16 expression levels were not associated with OS and DFS. Low-Str-Tils had a trend of shorter OS and DFS than that of intermediate- or high-Str-Tils (low vs int; OS:p=0.085, DFS:p=0.026, low vs high; OS:p=0.062, DFS:p=0.055).In multivariate analysis, age<50 was only independent prognostic factor (p<0.05).
Conclusion
We showed that intra-tumor heterogeneity, tumor biology, and microenvironment had different predictive and prognostic impact in TNBC. These results might suggest the strategy of additional targeting treatment to non-pCR patients.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Nipple-sparing mastectomy (NSM) is an alternative procedure to skin-sparing mastectomy (SSM) for selected patients who undergo immediate reconstruction. However, the evidence of long-term oncologic safety of NSM has not been established. In this study, we aimed to compare the prognosis of breast cancer patients who underwent NSM to those who underwent SSM with immediate reconstruction.
Methods
The clinicopathological factors including recurrence site, pathologic stage, nipple-tumor distance, histological type, lymphovascular invasion, margin status, ER, PgR and HER2 status of stage 0–III primary breast cancer patients who underwent NSM or SSM with immediate primary reconstruction with tissue expander from our breast center database was retrospectively assessed. Patients with a nipple tumor distance of <1 cm who underwent NSM were excluded. 190 patients who underwent NSM and 729 patients who underwent SSM were included in the analysis. All patients underwent MRI or US before treatment. Nipple-tumor distance was mainly measured by MRI.
Results
The median follow-up period was 71 months (range: 10 - 131 months) for the NSM group and 79 months (range: 9 - 140 months) for the SSM group. There were no significant difference of clinicopathological factors between the NSM group and the SSM group, except of the larger diameter of tumor in the SSM group. NSM was performed for 60 patients (32%) with stage 0, 71 patients (37%) with stage I, and 59 patients (31%) with stage II/III. SSM was performed for 185 patients (26%) with stage 0, 268 patients (37%) with stage I, and 276 patients (37%) with stage II/III. Local recurrence was found in 11 (5.8%) patients in the NSM group and in 44 (6.0%) patients in the SSM group. In the NSM group, only one (0.5%) patient had local recurrence in the nipple areola complex. In terms of DFS and overall survival (OS) rate, there was no difference between the NSM group and the SSM group (DFS; 89.5% vs 89.2%, HR, 1.044; p = 0.8992; 95% CI, 0.5116–1.9519, and OS; 98.4% vs 96.4%, HR, 0.963; p = 0.9116; 95% CI, 0.473–1.793). According to breast cancer subtype, in the NSM group, all of the 11 patients (100%) who developed local recurrence in the NSM group was hormone receptor (HR)-positive/HER2-negative breast cancer. 29 of the 44 patients (65.9%) who developed local recurrence in the SSM group was HR-positive/HER2-negative, 6 patients (13.6%) was HR-negative/HER2-positive, and 7 patients (15.9%) was triple-negative breast cancer. Among patients who had received neoadjuvant chemotherapy, the NSM group (3 of 14 patients, 21.4%) had a trend for higher local recurrence rate than the SSM group 7 of 116 patients (6.0%) (p = 0.0813). However, no local recurrence in the nipple areola complex was observed for the NSM group. In addition, there was no difference of OS between the NSM group (92.9%) and the SSM group (90.5%) (HR, 0.903; p = 0.9943; 95% CI, 0.049-4.739).
Conclusions
Our results suggested that NSM with immediate reconstruction might be safe as well as SSM for breast cancer with the nipple–tumor distance of >1 cm with respect to their prognosis and local control regardless of breast cancer subtype or invasiveness. Further studies with a large sample size to assess the risk of local recurrence for NSM after neoadjuvant chemotherapy.
