Abstract
BACKGROUND Mycoplasma pneumoniae (MP) is the primary cause of community-acquired pneumonia. We aimed to evaluate the correlation between clinical features, with special reference to hypoxemia and the total affected area obtained using high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT). METHODS Medical records of MP pneumonia patients > 15 years of age at Kyorin University Hospital between January 2006 and November 2013 were reviewed retrospectively and compared to patients with Streptococcus pneumoniae pneumonia, diagnosed between January 2013 and September 2014. RESULTS We identified 65 and 32 patients with MP- and S. pneumoniae pneumonia, respectively. HRCT data were available for 42 and 32 patients with MP- and S. pneumoniae pneumonia, respectively. Data were available for all hypoxemic patients. Hypoxemia was significantly higher in patients with S. pneumoniae (14/32, p = 0.008) than those with MP (5/39). Total visual score on HRCT correlated significantly with hypoxemia in both groups, but showed significantly higher scores with MP- than with S pneumoniae pneumonia in hypoxemic patients. MP pneumonia showed significant positive correlation between the total visual score and serum inflammatory markers (C-reaction protein [r = 0.43, p = 0.025] and lactate dehydrogenase [r = 0.466, p = 0.016]). In both groups, individual scores in the middle and lower lung fields were significantly higher than in the upper field, suggesting zonal predominance. CONCLUSIONS This study provides the first evidence that the total affected area on lung HRCT was more with MP compared to S. pneumoniae pneumonia in hypoxemic patients and positively correlated with hypoxemia and serum inflammatory markers.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) and mizoribine (MZR) are increasingly used as immunosuppressive agents for organ transplantation and chronic inflammation. We report a patient with rheumatoid arthritis who had an acute inflammatory syndrome triggered by preoperative immunosuppression therapy with both MMF and MZR. CASE REPORT A 41-year-old woman with IgA nephropathy was referred to our department for living donor renal transplantation. She had rheumatoid arthritis that was adequately treated with prednisolone 5 mg once a day and salazosulfapyridine 2000 mg once a day. MMF 1000 mg twice a day was started for desensitization therapy. Three days later, the patient developed arthritis in the joints of her left hand and elevated inflammatory markers. On day 7, MMF was switched to MZR 150 mg 3 times a day. However, the symptoms extended to both shoulders and the joints of the right foot; MZR was discontinued. The arthritis and inflammatory markers improved. Two months later, the patient was rechallenged with MMF followed by MZR, resulting in a similar clinical course as previously. Tacrolimus (TAC) 3 mg twice a day and everolimus (EVL) 0.5 mg twice a day were introduced as alternative immunosuppressant therapies. No arthritis occurred. ABO-compatible living donor renal transplantation was successfully performed. The patient received TAC, EVL, prednisolone, rituximab, and basiliximab, and her postoperative course was uneventful without arthritis or rejection. At 9 months postoperatively, the serum creatinine was 0.79 mg/dL. CONCLUSIONS Acute inflammatory syndrome is an extremely rare complication triggered by preoperative immunosuppression therapy. If antimetabolites cannot be used in immunologically high-risk patients, transplantation becomes very difficult. Clinicians should keep in mind this paradoxical reaction.

Abstract
Foxp3+ Regulatory T cells (Tregs) play a critical role in the maintenance of colon homeostasis. Here we utilized photoconvertible KikGR mice to track immune cells from the caecum and ascending (proximal) colon in the steady state and DSS-induced colitis. We found that Tregs from the proximal colon (colonic migratory Tregs) migrated exclusively to the distal part of mesenteric lymph nodes (dMLN) in an S1PR1-dependent process. In the steady state, colonic migratory CD25+ Tregs expressed higher levels of CD103, ICOS, LAG3 and CTLA-4 in comparison with pre-existing LN Tregs. Intestinal inflammation led to accelerated Treg replacement in the colon, bidirectional Treg migration from the colon to dMLN and vice versa, as well as increases in Treg number, proliferation and expression of immunosuppressive molecules. This was especially apparent for CD25 very high Tregs induced in colitis. Furthermore, colonic migratory Tregs from the inflamed colon included more interleukin (IL)-10 producing cells, and demonstrated greater inhibition of T-cell proliferation in comparison with pre-existing LN Tregs. Thus, our results suggest that Tregs with superior immunosuppressive capacity are increased both in the colon and dMLN upon inflammation. These Tregs recirculate between the colon and dMLN, and are likely to contribute to the downregulation of intestinal inflammation.

Abstract
Background The impact of viral infections on acute exacerbations in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) and/or non-IPF interstitial lung disease (ILDs) has been scarcely described. Objectives To elucidate the frequency of virus infections in patients with IPF or non-IPF ILDs including idiopathic interstitial pneumonia (IIP) or connective tissue disease (CTD)-associated pneumonia, and its influence on their short-term mortality. Methods We prospectively enrolled adult patients with acute exacerbation of IPF and non-IPF ILDs who were admitted to the hospital during the last 3 years, and examined the respiratory samples obtained from nasopharyngeal, sputum, and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid. Results A total of 78 patients were identified, consisting of 27 patients with acute exacerbation of IPF and 51 patients with non-IPF ILDs (IIP: n = 27, CTD-associated IP: n = 24). Of all patients, 15 (19.2%) had viruses detected in their respiratory samples including the human herpesvirus 7 (HHV7; n = 4) and cytomegalovirus (CMV) plus HHV7 (n = 3). The proportion of virus infections in the IPF and non-IPF ILDs groups was comparable. The Kaplan-Meier survival curves over 60 days revealed a lower survival probability in the virus positive group (n = 15, 60%) than in the virus negative group (n = 60, 83.3%, p < 0.05). However, the virus infection itself could not predict the 60-day survival probability using simple logistic regression analysis. Conclusions Viral infections, mostly CMV or HHV7, were identified in both patients with acute exacerbation of IPF and non-IPF ILDs, but the clinical significance on short-term mortality or isolation itself from respiratory samples remains to be determined.

Abstract
Objective To compare the radiological and laboratory data of children and adults with Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia (MPP) and to evaluate the correlation between the total affected lung area and the clinical findings. Methods We retrospectively examined the data from MPP patients who visited our hospital during the period from April 2006 to July 2014. All data were retrieved at the time of the diagnosis of MPP and were analyzed to investigate the correlation between the clinical findings and the total affected lung area using a chest X-ray scoring system. Results We identified 71 children and 54 adults with MPP. The incidence of consolidation, which was the most common chest X-ray finding in both groups, was similar (children: n = 62, 87.3%; adults: n = 45, 83.3%). In contrast, air bronchogram, bronchial thickening, and atelectasis were observed significantly more frequently among children than among adults. In both groups, a chest X-ray scoring system revealed a zonal predominance of the affected area (middle-to-lower lung fields). The body temperature and serum data such as the C-reactive protein level, white blood cell count, and lactate dehydrogenase level were significantly higher in the child group than in the adult group. The total score did not significantly correlate with the above-mentioned inflammatory markers or the presence of hypoxemia in either group. Conclusion This study showed the first evidence of a correlation between the extent of lung abnormalities on chest X-ray (calculated as a total score) and the clinical findings, including the presence of hypoxemia, in children and adults with MPP.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Immunoglobulin G4-related disease (IgG4-RD) is a rare multi-organ disorder. Physicians rarely encounter patients with IgG4-RD and its range of symptoms. METHODS To elucidate the clinical characterization of IgG4-RD, along with the clinical significance of lung involvement, we retrospectively reviewed the medical records of patients who satisfied the comprehensive diagnostic criteria for IgG4-RD. RESULTS We identified 52 patients with IgG4-RD. Of these, 32 patients underwent tissue biopsies, resulting in categorization as definite (n = 23) or possible (n = 9) IgG4-RD cases. Among the 23 definite IgG4-RD cases, those with positive lung involvement (n = 8) had significantly higher values of serum LDH (median 220 IU/L, interquartile range (IQR) 175-378 vs. median 184, IQR 136-249, p = 0.039), IgG (median 2769 mg/dL, IQR 2028-7807 vs. median 2048, IQR 1168-4376, p = 0.009), and soluble interleukin-2 receptors (median 1620 U/mL, IQR 871-2250 vs. median 733, IQR 271-1600, p = 0.003) than those with negative lung involvement (n = 15). Similarly, a significant number of patients with positive lung involvement were positive for rheumatoid factor (71.4% vs. 23.1%, p = 0.041) or hypocomplementemia (50% vs. 0%, p = 0.036). Sixteen patients also showed lung involvement (definite n = 8, possible n = 8); thoracic computed tomography (CT) of these patients revealed mediastinal lymphadenopathies (n = 14, 87.5%), ground glass opacity (n = 11, 68.8%), consolidation (n = 8, 50%), thickening of the bronchovascular bundles (n = 7, 43.8%), small nodules (n = 5, 31.3%), bronchiectasis (n = 4, 25%), and reticular shadows (n = 4, 25%), and pulmonary function tests, using a standard technique involving a single breath, revealed decreased diffusion capacity for carbon monoxide. CONCLUSIONS IgG4-RD is associated with diverse thoracic CT findings and a decreased diffusion capacity, and careful multidisciplinary assessment is needed to enable differentiation of IgG4-RD from lymphoproliferative disorders.

Abstract
Tridacna derasa shells show a crossed lamellar microstructure consisting of three hierarchical lamellar structural orders. The mineral part is intimately intergrown with 0.9 wt% organics, namely polysaccharides, glycosylated and unglycosylated proteins and lipids, identified by Fourier transform infrared spectrometry. Transmission electron microscopy shows nanometre-sized grains with irregular grain boundaries and abundant voids. Twinning is observed across all spatial scales and results in a spread of the crystal orientation angles. Electron backscatter diffraction analysis shows a strong fibre texture with the [001] axes of aragonite aligned radially to the shell surface. The aragonitic [100] and [010] axes are oriented randomly around [001]. The random orientation of anisotropic crystallographic directions in this plane reduces anisotropy of the Young's modulus and adds to the optimization of mechanical properties of bivalve shells.

Abstract
To clarify the taxonomic classification of Streptococcus suis serotype 33, we performed biochemical and molecular genetic analyses using isolates (GUT-183, GUT-184, GUT-185, GUT-186, GUT-187T, GUT-188, GUT-189, GUT-190, GUT-191, GUT-192 and GUT-193) from bovine endocarditis. A comparative sequence analysis showed 99.2-100 % sequence similarity among the reference strain of S. suis serotype 33 and our isolates for the 16S rRNA gene. These similarities were higher than those between the isolate GUT-187T and S. suis and other streptococci. Comparison of sodA genes also showed high degrees of similarities among the reference strain of S. suis serotype 33 and our isolates (99.7-100 %), which were higher than those between the GUT-187T and S. suis and other streptococci. DNA-DNA relatedness among three isolates (GUT-186, GUT-187T, the reference strain of S. suis serotype 33) was over 76.7 %. In contrast, the relatedness between GUT-187T and the other streptococcal species (S. suis, Streptococcus parasuis, Streptococcus acidominimus and Streptococcus porci) was 8.4-24.9 %. Phylogenetic analyses showed that the isolates did not affiliate closely to any known species of the genus Streptococcus. Moreover, GUT-187T could be distinguished from S. suis and other closely related species of genus Streptococcus using biochemical tests. On the basis of the phenotypic and molecular genetic data, we propose that the isolates of S. suis serotype 33 should be classified into the genus Streptococcus, Streptococcus ruminantium sp. nov. with the type strain GUT-187T (=DSM 104980T=JCM 31869T).

Abstract
The oral bacterial species Porphyromonas gingivalis, a periodontal pathogen, has plastic genomes that may be driven by homologous recombination with exogenous deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) that is incorporated by natural transformation and conjugation. However, bacteriophages and plasmids, both of which are main resources of exogenous DNA, do not exist in the known P. gingivalis genomes. This could be associated with an adaptive immunity system conferred by clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeat (CRISPR) and CRISPR-associated (cas) genes in P. gingivalis as well as innate immune systems such as a restriction-modification system. In a previous study, few immune targets were predicted for P. gingivalis CRISPR/Cas. In this paper, we analyzed 51 P. gingivalis genomes, which were newly sequenced, and publicly available genomes of 13 P. gingivalis and 46 other Porphyromonas species. We detected 6 CRISPR/Cas types (classified by sequence similarity of repeat) in P. gingivalis and 12 other types in the remaining species. The Porphyromonas CRISPR spacers with potential targets in the genus Porphyromonas were approximately 23 times more abundant than those with potential targets in other genus taxa (1,720/6,896 spacers vs. 74/6,896 spacers). Porphyromonas CRISPR/Cas may be involved in genome plasticity by exhibiting selective interference against intra- and interspecies nucleic acids.

Abstract
The 15th St. Gallen International Breast Cancer Conference 2017 in Vienna, Austria reviewed substantial new evidence on loco-regional and systemic therapies for early breast cancer. Treatments were assessed in light of their intensity, duration and side-effects, seeking where appropriate to escalate or de-escalate therapies based on likely benefits as predicted by tumor stage and tumor biology. The Panel favored several interventions that may reduce surgical morbidity, including acceptance of 2 mm margins for DCIS, the resection of residual cancer (but not baseline extent of cancer) in women undergoing neoadjuvant therapy, acceptance of sentinel node biopsy following neoadjuvant treatment of many patients, and the preference for neoadjuvant therapy in HER2 positive and triple-negative, stage II and III breast cancer. The Panel favored escalating radiation therapy with regional nodal irradiation in high-risk patients, while encouraging omission of boost in low-risk patients. The Panel endorsed gene expression signatures that permit avoidance of chemotherapy in many patients with ER positive breast cancer. For women with higher risk tumors, the Panel escalated recommendations for adjuvant endocrine treatment to include ovarian suppression in premenopausal women, and extended therapy for postmenopausal women. However, low-risk patients can avoid these treatments. Finally, the Panel recommended bisphosphonate use in postmenopausal women to prevent breast cancer recurrence. The Panel recognized that recommendations are not intended for all patients, but rather to address the clinical needs of the majority of common presentations. Individualization of adjuvant therapy means adjusting to the tumor characteristics, patient comorbidities and preferences, and managing constraints of treatment cost and access that may affect care in both the developed and developing world.
