Abstract
OBJECTIVE Many asymptomatic individuals have radiographic lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS), but the prevalence of symptoms among individuals with radiographic LSS has not yet been established. The purpose of this study was to clarify the association between radiographic LSS and clinical symptoms in the general population. METHODS In this cross-sectional study, data from 938 participants (308 men, 630 women; mean age, 66.3 years; range, 40-93 years) were analyzed. The severity of radiographic LSS, including central stenosis, lateral stenosis, and foraminal stenosis, was assessed by mobile magnetic resonance imaging and rated qualitatively. Assessment of clinical symptoms was based on the definition of symptomatic LSS in the North American Spine Society guideline. RESULTS We found that 77.9% of participants had more than moderate central stenosis and 30.4% had severe central stenosis. Logistic regression analysis after adjustment for age, sex, body mass index, and severity of radiographic LSS showed that severe central stenosis was related to clinical symptoms. However, only 17.5% of the participants with severe central stenosis were symptomatic. CONCLUSION Although radiographic LSS was common in our cohort, which resembled the general Japanese population, symptomatic persons were relatively uncommon.

Abstract
Central neuropathic pain (CNP) in the spinal cord, such as chronic pain after spinal cord injury (SCI), is an incurable ailment. However, little is known about the spinal cord mechanisms underlying CNP. Recently, reactive oxygen species (ROS) have been recognized to play an important role in CNP of the spinal cord. However, it is unclear how ROS affect synaptic transmission in the dorsal horn of the spinal cord. To clarify how ROS impact on synaptic transmission, we investigated the effects of ROS on synaptic transmission in rat spinal cord substantia gelatinosa (SG) neurons using whole-cell patch-clamp recordings. Administration of tert-butyl hydroperoxide (t-BOOH), an ROS donor, into the spinal cord markedly increased the frequency and amplitude of spontaneous excitatory postsynaptic currents (sEPSCs) in SG neurons. This t-BOOH-induced enhancement was not suppressed by the Na(+) channel blocker tetrodotoxin. However, in the presence of a non-N-methyl-D-aspartate glutamate receptor antagonist, 6-cyano-7-nitroquinoxaline-2,3-dione, t-BOOH did not generate any sEPSCs. Furthermore, in the presence of a transient receptor potential ankyrin 1 (TRPA1) channel antagonist (HC-030031) or a transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 (TRPV1) channel antagonist (capsazepine or AMG9810), the t-BOOH-induced increase in the frequency of sEPSCs was inhibited. These results indicate that ROS enhance the spontaneous release of glutamate from presynaptic terminals onto SG neurons through TRPA1 and TRPV1 channel activation. Excessive activation of these ion channels by ROS may induce central sensitization in the spinal cord and result in chronic pain such as that following SCI.

Abstract
Super-Kamiokande atmospheric neutrino data were fit with an unbinned maximum likelihood method to search for the appearance of tau leptons resulting from the interactions of oscillation-generated tau neutrinos in the detector. Relative to the expectation of unity, the tau normalization is found to be 1.42 ± 0.35(stat)(-0.12)(+0.14)(syst) excluding the no-tau-appearance hypothesis, for which the normalization would be zero, at the 3.8σ level. We estimate that 180.1 ± 44.3(stat)(-15.2)(+17.8) (syst) tau leptons were produced in the 22.5 kton fiducial volume of the detector by tau neutrinos during the 2806 day running period. In future analyses, this large sample of selected tau events will allow the study of charged current tau neutrino interaction physics with oscillation produced tau neutrinos.

Abstract
Food intake activates neurones expressing prolactin-releasing peptide (PrRP) in the medulla oblongata and oxytocin neurones in the hypothalamus. Both PrRP and oxytocin have been shown to have an anorexic action. In the present study, we investigated whether the activation of oxytocin neurones following food intake is mediated by PrRP. We first examined the expression of PrRP receptors (also known as GPR10) in rats. Immunoreactivity of PrRP receptors was observed in oxytocin neurones and in vasopressin neurones in the paraventricular and supraoptic nuclei of the hypothalamus and in the bed nucleus of the stria terminalis. Application of PrRP to isolated supraoptic nuclei facilitated the release of oxytocin and vasopressin. In mice, re-feeding increased the expression of Fos protein in oxytocin neurones of the hypothalamus and bed nucleus of the stria terminalis. The increased expression of Fos protein in oxytocin neurones following re-feeding or i.p. administration of cholecystokinin octapeptide (CCK), a peripheral satiety factor, was impaired in PrRP-deficient mice. CCK-induced oxytocin increase in plasma was also impaired in PrRP-deficient mice. Furthermore, oxytocin receptor-deficient mice showed an increased meal size, as reported in PrRP-deficient mice and in CCKA receptor-deficient mice. These findings suggest that PrRP mediates, at least in part, the activation of oxytocin neurones in response to food intake, and that the CCK-PrRP-oxytocin pathway plays an important role in the control of the termination of each meal.

Abstract
Recent evidence implicates endothelin in nociception, but it is unclear how endothelin activates trigeminal ganglion (TRG) neurons. In the present study, we investigated the expression of the endothelin receptors ETA and ETB and endothelin-induced responses in rat TRG neurons. Double-immunofluorescence studies demonstrated that ETA and ETB were expressed in TRG neurons and that 26% of ETA- or ETB-expressing neurons expressed both receptors. During whole-cell patch-clamp recording, endothelin-1 enhanced an induced current in response to capsaicin, a TRPV1 agonist, in approximately 20% of dissociated neurons. The enhancement was blocked by the PKC inhibitor chelerythrine and by the ETA antagonist BQ-123, but not by the ETB antagonist BQ-788. Ca(2+)-imaging showed that endothelin-1 increased the intracellular Ca(2+) concentration in more than 20% of the dissociated neurons. Importantly, unlike the effect of endothelin-1 on capsaicin-induced current, the Ca(2+) response was largely suppressed by BQ-788 but not by BQ-123. These results suggest that ETA-mediated TRPV1 hyperactivation via PKC activation and ETB-mediated Ca(2+) mobilization occurs in different subsets of TRG neurons. These endothelin-induced responses may contribute to the induction of orofacial pain. The ETB-mediated function in TRG neurons is a special feature in the trigeminal system because of no ETB expression in dorsal root ganglion neurons.

Abstract
SUMMARY This study examined whether physical performance and bone and joint diseases were risk factors for falls in 745 men and 1,470 women from the Research on Osteoarthritis/osteoporosis Against Disability (ROAD) study (mean, 69.7 years). Slower walking speed was a risk factor for falls in men and women. Knee pain was a risk factor for falls in women. INTRODUCTION The objective of the present study was to clarify the incidence of falls by sex and age and to determine whether physical performance and bone and joint diseases are risk factors for falls in men and women using a large-scale population-based cohort of the ROAD. METHODS A total of 745 men and 1,470 women were analyzed in the present study (mean age, 68.5 years). A questionnaire assessed the number of falls during 3 years of follow-up. Grip strength and walking speed were measured at baseline. Knee and lumbar spine radiographs were read by Kellgren-Lawrence (KL) grade; radiographic knee osteoarthritis and lumbar spondylosis were defined as KL = 3 or 4. Knee and lower back pain were estimated by an interview. RESULTS During a mean follow-up of 3 years, 141 (18.9 %) men and 362 (24.6 %) women reported at least one fall. Slower walking speed was a risk factor for falls in men (0.1 m/s decrease; odds ratio [OR], 1.15; 95 % confidence interval [CI], 1.09-1.23) and women (0.1 m/s decrease; OR, 1.05; 95 % CI, 1.01-1.10). Knee pain was also a risk factor for falls (OR, 1.38; 95 % CI, 1.03-1.84) in women, but lower back pain was not. CONCLUSION We examined the incidence and risk factors for falls in men and women. Slower walking speed was a risk factor for falls in men and women. Knee pain was a risk factor for falls in women.

Abstract
Abstract
Breast magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a method that can detect clinically and mammographically occult cancer foci. For lesions suspected to be malignant on the basis of breast MRI, targeted sonography can help determine whether the lesion is amenable to tissue biopsy using sonographic guidance. However, the reproducibility of sonography as well as interexaminer reliability in targeted sonography is still a clinical issue. Recently, we have developed real-time virtual sonography (RVS) that can coordinate a sonographic image and a MRI multiplanar reconstruction (MRI-MPR) of the same section in real time. Although RVS has been reported to be useful for breast cancers, only a few studies have investigated the size and positioning error between a real-time sonographic image and a MRI-MPR image. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the accuracy of RVS to sonographically identify enhancing lesions by breast MRI. Between December 2008 and May 2009, RVS was performed in 51 consecutive patients with 63 enhancing lesions. MRI was performed with the patients in the supine position using a 1.5-T imager with a body surface coil to achieve the same position as with sonography. To assess the accuracy of the RVS, the following three issues were analyzed: (i) The sonographic detection rate of enhancing lesions, (ii) the comparison of the tumor size measured by sonography and the MRI-MPR and (iii) the positioning errors as the distance from the actual sonographic position to the expected MRI position in 3-D. Among the 63 enhancing lesions, 42 (67%) lesions were identified by conventional B-mode, whereas the remaining 21 (33%) initial conventional B-mode occult lesions were identified by RVS alone. The sonographic size of the lesions detected by RVS alone was significantly smaller than that of lesions detected by conventional B-mode (p < 0.001). The mean tumor size provided by RVS was 12.3 mm for real-time sonography and 14.1 mm for MRI-MPR (r = 0.848, p < 0.001). The mean positioning errors for the transverse and sagittal planes and the depth from the skin were 7.7, 6.9 and 2.8 mm, respectively. The overall mean 3D positioning error was 12.0 mm. Our results suggest that RVS has good targeting accuracy to directly compare a sonographic image with MRI results without operator dependence.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Lupus anticoagulant (LA) is an antibody that interferes with phospholipid-dependent coagulation reactions. Activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) is widely used as a test for LA screening. APTT reagents are composed of activators, such as silica or ellagic acid, and phospholipids, and APTT reagents with silica are recommended for LA screening because of greater sensitivity. However, the effects of activators on LA activity have not been adequately investigated. OBJECTIVES In this study, we examined whether an ellagic acid-based reagent was highly sensitive to LA in a low phospholipid condition and useful for LA screening. METHODS Silica-based (SL) and ellagic acid-based (EA) reagents were prepared in-house with the same composition and concentration of phospholipids, while the commercial APTT reagents APTT-SLA (SLA), Actin FSL (FSL), APTT-SP (SP) and PTT-LA (PTT) were also included in the study. RESULTS The normal reference ranges for SL and EA were 30.1-47.0 and 28.0-40.2 s, respectively, while the cut-off index values for circulating anticoagulant activity (ICA) calculated from the results obtained with SL, EA, SLA, FSL, SP and PTT were 12.9, 11.5, 13.2, 15.6, 14.3 and 14.0, respectively. The sensitivity of those reagents based on those cut-off values was 91%, 96%, 68%, 46%, 91% and 86%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS Our results showed that the ellagic acid-based reagent was more sensitive to LA than silica-based reagents in a low phospholipid condition and had adequate sensitivity to detect LA. We concluded that the sensitivity of APTT reagents for LA is dependent on phospholipid concentration and not the activator.

Abstract
The safety and efficacy profile of caspofungin and micafungin in Japanese patients with fungal infections were directly compared in this prospective, randomized, double-blind study. The proportion of patients who developed significant drug-related adverse event(s) (defined as a serious drug-related adverse event or a drug-related adverse event leading to study therapy discontinuation) was compared in 120 patients [caspofungin 50 mg, or 50 mg following a 70-mg loading dose on Day 1 (hereinafter, 70/50 mg) group: 60 patients; micafungin 150 mg: 60 patients]. The overall response rate was primarily evaluated in the per-protocol set (PPS) population. The proportion of patients who developed significant drug-related adverse events was 5.0 % (3/60) in the caspofungin group and 10.0 % (6/60) in the micafungin group [95 % confidence interval (CI) for the difference: -15.9 %, 5.2 %]. The favorable overall response in the PPS population for patients with esophageal candidiasis, invasive candidiasis, and chronic pulmonary aspergillosis including aspergilloma was 100.0 % (6/6), 100.0 % (3/3), and 46.7 % (14/30) in the caspofungin group, and 83.3 % (5/6), 100.0 % (1/1), and 42.4 % (14/33) in the micafungin group, respectively. In Japanese patients with Candida or Aspergillus infections, there was no statistical difference in the safety between caspofungin and micafungin. Consistent with other data on these two agents, the efficacy of caspofungin and micafungin was similar.

Abstract
The pharmacokinetics, biological effects and distribution in blood and organs of 125I-labeled (1→3)-β-D-glucan purified from Candida albicans were analyzed in rabbits during the 24-h period following an intravenous administration.The intravascular half-life of (1→3)-β- D-glucan was 1.8 min in the low-dose group (9.3 μg/kg) and 1.4 min in the high-dose group (222 μg/kg), and the mean (±SD) total body clearance was 1.12 ± 0.30 and 1.17 ± 0.16 ml/min, respectively. The rabbits remained well and (1→3)-β-D-glucan failed to alter blood cell counts. Less than 3% of the 125I-(1→3)-β-D-glucan was initially associated with the cellular compartment, and this value decreased further during the 2-h period following administration
(P = 0.0001). Over 97% of 125I-(1→3)-β-D-glucan was associated with cell-free plasma, and the majority in plasma appeared to be present in the unbound form (not associated with lipoproteins or plasma proteins). The liver contained more than 80% of the 125I-(1→3)-β-D-glucan detected in the six major organs analyzed.

Abstract
AIMS Recent studies have shown that fused-in-sarcoma (FUS) protein is a component of 'neuronal' intranuclear inclusion bodies (INIBs) in the brains of patients with intranuclear inclusion body disease (INIBD). However, the extent and frequency of FUS-immunoreactive structures in INIBD are uncertain. METHODS We immunohistochemically examined the brain, spinal cord and peripheral ganglia from five patients with INIBD and five control subjects, using anti-FUS antibodies. RESULTS In controls, the nuclei of both neurones and glial cells were intensely immunolabelled with anti-FUS and neuronal cytoplasm was weakly positive for FUS. In INIBD, neuronal and glial INIBs in the brain and spinal cord were positive for FUS. FUS-positive INIBs were also found in the peripheral ganglia. The proportion of FUS-positive neuronal INIBs relative to the total number of inclusion-bearing neurones ranged from 55.6% to 83.3% (average 73.2%) and that of FUS-positive glial INIBs ranged from 45.9% to 85.7% (average 62.7%). The nucleus and cytoplasm of inclusion-bearing neurones and glial cells showed no FUS immunoreactivity. CONCLUSIONS These findings suggest that FUS is incorporated into INIBs in both neurones and glial cells and that loss of normal FUS immunoreactivity may result from reduced protein expression and/or sequestration within inclusions.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine the incidence of radiographic lumbar spondylosis (LS)and lower back pain, and their risk factors in Japan using a large-scale population from the nationwide cohort Research on Osteoarthritis/osteoporosis Against Disability (ROAD) Study. METHODS Participants in the ROAD study who had been recruited between 2005 and 2007 were followed up with lumbar spine radiography for 3 years. A total of 2,282 paired radiographs (75% of the original sample) were scored using Kellgren and Lawrence (KL) grades, and the incidence and progression rate of radiographic LS was analyzed. The incidence of lower back pain was also examined. In addition, associations between risk factors and incident and progressive radiographic LS as well as incident lower back pain were tested. RESULTS Given a 3.3-year follow-up, the incidence of KL≥2 radiographic LS was 50.0% and 34.4% (15.3% and 10.5% per year), while that of KL≥3 LS was 15.3% and 23.7% (4.6% and 7.2% per year) in men and women, respectively. The progression rate of LS was 20.5% and 27.4% (6.2% and 8.3% per year) in men and in women, respectively. In addition, the incidence of lower back pain was 28.3% and 31.2% (8.6% and 9.5% per year) in men and women. Lower back pain was not significantly associated with incident radiographic LS, while a more severe KL grade at baseline was associated with incident lower back pain. CONCLUSION The present longitudinal study revealed a high incidence of radiographic LS in Japan.
