Abstract
Abstract
Background
Cardiac troponin (cTn) is the preferred biomarker for the diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Octogenarians who presented cTn positive AMI are not usually recruited in clinical trials. Therefore, their clinical characteristics and prognosis are rarely investigated.
Objective
To study the characteristics and prognosis in octogenarians who presented cTn positive AMI.
Methods and results
The Japanese registry of acute Myocardial INfarction diagnosed by Universal dEfiniTion (J-MINUET) is a prospective and multicenter registry. A total of 3,283 consecutive AMI patients who were diagnosed by cTn-based criteria were included. The patients were divided into non-octogenarians (n=2,593) and octogenarians (n=690). Compared with non- octogenarians, octogenarians showed significantly lower incidence of diabetes mellitus (37.6% and 31.9%, p=0.006) and dyslipidemia (53.6% and 45.6%, p<0.001), and significantly higher incidence of hypertension (64.1% and 75.3%, p<0.001) and chronic kidney disease (38.7% and 68.7%, p<0.001). Octogenarians showed significantly longer onset to door time (p<0.001) and longer door to device time (p<0.001). Though, compared with non-octogenarians, octogenarians showed lower peak CK (2,506 and 1,926, p<0.001), LVEF was significantly lower in octogenarians (54.6% and 52.6%, p=0.005). The presentation of AMI was different between the two group. The incidence of ST-segment elevation MI (STEMI) was 70.7% in non-octogenarians and 62.0% in octogenarians. Non-STEMI with CK elevation and without CK elevation were 16.2% and 13.1% in non- octogenarians, and 20.9% and 17.1% in octogenarians. In-hospital mortality was higher in octogenarians (4.7% and 13.2%, P<0.001). Especially, octogenarians with STEMI and non-STEMI with CK elevation showed the highest in-hospital mortality. And octogenarians without CK elevation showed similar in hospital mortality with non-octogenarians with STEMI (Figure).
Conclusions
J-MINUET showed the poor prognosis of octogenarians who were diagnosed as AMI based on cTn.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Cardiovascular deaths are more frequently in hemodialysis (HD) patients compared to general population. However, difference of prognosis of acute coronary syndrome (ACS) patients with or without HD were not well evaluated.
Purpose
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the clinical and prognostic characteristics of ACS patients with HD compared to that of ACS patients without HD.
Methods
We investigated 3427 ACS patients including 63 HD and 3364 non-HD patients between 2013 and 2017 using date from Mie ACS registry, a retrospective and multicenter registry. The primary outcome was defined as all-cause mortality.
Results
HD patients showed significantly higher prevalence of diabetes mellitus, past treatment of coronary artery disease, history of myocardial infarction and Killip ≥2 compared to non-HD patients (p<0.05, respectively). During the follow-up periods (median 719 days), 425 (12.4%) patients experienced all-cause death. HD patients demonstrated the higher all-cause mortality rate compared to that of non-HD patients during the follow-up (11.9% versus 38.1%, p<0.001, chi square). Kaplan Meier survival curves demonstrated that HD and non-HD patients with Killip 1 showed similar 30-day mortality, and Killip ≥2 patients also showed similar prognosis (Left side of figure). On the other hand, all cause mortality at 2 years were higher in Killip 1 HD patients compared to Killip 1 non-HD patients and similar between Killip 1 HD patients and Killip ≥2 non-HD patients in the 30 days landmark analysis (Right side of figure). In addition, cox regression analyses for all cause mortality demonstrated that HD was a strongest independent prognostic factor not of 30-day mortality but of after 30-day mortality with hazard ratio of 4.09 (95% confidential interval: 2.32–7.21, p<0.001).

Conclusion
Careful management are required in chronic phase for ACS patients with HD even in Killip 1 classification.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction (TIMI) Risk Score for Secondary Prevention and CREDO-Kyoto Thrombotic Risk Score are contemporary secondary prevention risk scoring systems. However, these scoring systems have not been validated in other populations.
Purpose
The aim of this study was to validate of the TIMI Risk Score for Secondary Prevention and CREDO-Kyoto Thrombotic Risk Score in patients in the early phase of acute myocardial infarction (AMI).
Methods
The Japanese registry of acute Myocardial INfarction diagnosed by Universal dEfiniTion (J-MINUET) is a prospective multicenter registry conducted in 28 Japanese medical institutions. We enrolled 3,283 consecutive patients with AMI who were admitted to participating institutions within 48 hours of symptom onset between July 2012 and May 2014. Among them, 3,070 patients were included in this study after excluding 213 patients who died in the hospital. Clinical follow-up data were obtained up to 3 years. The primary endpoint was a composite of all-cause death, non-fatal MI and non-fatal stroke. The patients were stratified by the TIMI Risk Score for Secondary Prevention and CREDO-Kyoto Thrombotic Risk Score.
Results
At the 3-year follow-up, the primary endpoint had occurred in 337 patients (11.0%). All-cause death, non-fatal MI and non-fatal stroke had occurred in 177 (5.8%), 80 (2.6%) and 80 (2.6%) patients, respectively. TIMI Risk Score for Secondary Prevention and CREDO-Kyoto Thrombotic Risk Score showed a graded association with the composite of all-cause death, non-fatal MI and non-fatal stroke at 3 years in the J-MINUET population (Figure).
Validation of atherothrombotic risk
Conclusions
TIMI Risk Score for Secondary Prevention and CREDO-Kyoto Thrombotic Risk Score were shown to be applicable to the patients in the early phase of AMI.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Asian dust (AD) is considered as one of air pollution that increases risk of acute myocardial infarction (AMI). However, it has not been elucidated whether AD might increase the risk of myocardial infarction with nonobstructive coronary arteries (MINOCA).
Methods
A time-stratified case-crossover design and conditional logistic regression models was used to investigate the association between short-term exposure to AD and admission of AMI during the spring months in a nationwide administrative Diagnostic Procedure Combination (DPC) database, the Japanese Of All cardiac and vascular Diseases (JROAD)-DPC, between April 2012 through March 2016. MINOCA was defined as AMI having angiography without revascularization and coronary atherosclerosis, whereas myocardial infarction with obstructive coronary artery disease (MI-CAD) was AMI with revascularization and/or coronary atherosclerosis. Data for AD events, air pollutants (PM2.5, Ox, NO2, SO2), and meteorological variables were obtained from the nearest monitoring station of the hospital.
Results
During the study period, 3,233 MINOCA and 27,202 MI-CAD patients were identified from 30,435 AMI patients. Although the occurrence of AD events 2 days before the admission was not associated with the admission of AMI and MI-CAD, the AD events was significantly associated with the admission of MINOCA with adjustment for meteorological variables and each air pollutant. In subgroup analysis of MINOCA, patients without low ADL was associated with higher risk of the admission due to AD exposure than those with low ADL, with significant interaction.
Conclusions
AD events might be more likely to trigger onset of MINOCA than MI-CAD.

Abstract
The elusive β^{-}p^{+} decay was observed in ^{11}Be by directly measuring the emitted protons and their energy distribution for the first time with the prototype Active Target Time Projection Chamber in an experiment performed at ISAC-TRIUMF. The measured β^{-}p^{+} branching ratio is orders of magnitude larger than any previous theoretical model predicted. This can be explained by the presence of a narrow resonance in ^{11}B above the proton separation energy.

Abstract
A 71-year-old Japanese male patient presented with a rare case of Glomangiopericytoma (GPC) of the left nasal with obstruction. Complete resection with endoscopic surgery was performed. Immunohistochemical staining for smooth muscle actin, β catenin, cyclin D1, vimentin, and factor 13 were helpful in establishing a definitive diagnosis. Extranasal treatment has been traditionally performed for successful management. However, recent advances in endoscopic treatment have enabled complete endoscopic resection of GPC, minimizing morbidity and facilitating subsequent surveillance for recurrence. Endoscopic management should be considered in suitable cases.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The transmantle sign is a characteristic MR imaging finding often seen in focal cortical dysplasia type IIb. The transmantle sign is typically hyperintense on T2WI and FLAIR and hypointense on T1WI. However, in some cases, it shows T1 high signal. We evaluated the imaging and pathologic findings to identify the causes of the T1 high signal in the transmantle sign. MATERIALS AND METHODS We retrospectively reviewed the preoperative imaging data of 141 consecutive patients with histologically proved focal cortical dysplasia. We selected 25 patients with focal cortical dysplasia with the transmantle sign and divided them into groups based on the pathologic focal cortical dysplasia subtype and T1 signal of the transmantle sign. We evaluated the clinical, radiologic, and pathologic findings, including the number of balloon cells and dysmorphic neurons and the severity of gliosis or calcifications and compared them among the groups. RESULTS Nine of the 25 patients had a T1-high-signal transmantle sign; the other 16 patients did not. All 9 patients with a T1-high-signal transmantle sign were diagnosed as type IIb (group A). Of the 16 patients with no T1-high-signal transmantle sign, 13 were diagnosed as having type IIb (group B), and the other 3 patients, as type IIa (group C). The number of balloon cells was significantly higher in group A than in the other groups, but there were no differences regarding dysmorphic neurons, the severity of gliosis, or calcifications. CONCLUSIONS Approximately 6% (9/141) of this patient series had a T1-high-signal transmantle sign, and all were type IIb. The signal may reflect a rich density of balloon cells. This finding could support the differentiation of subtypes, especially type IIb.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To clarify the roles of 11 beta-HSD in resistance to glucocorticoid therapy for allergic rhinitis, a case series study was conducted. METHODS The patient group consisted of 20 subjects with allergic rhinitis, aged from 21 to 46 years (mean age 26.5), who showed persistent GC resistance necessitating surgical removal of the inferior turbinate after 6 months' GC treatment. The patients with poor response to GC treatment for 6 months' were defined as GC resistance. The control group consisted of 10 subjects aged from 16 to 39 years (mean age 24.5) who underwent maxillofacial surgery, from whom nasal tissues were taken and who did not receive GC treatment. Nasal mucosal tissues from patients and cntorol subjects were examined immunohistochemically. The sections were washed with 0.01 M phosphate-buffered saline (PBS; pH 7.2) containing 0.15 M NaCl and 0.01% Triton X-100, and incubated for 2 h with rabbit polyclonal anti-11 beta HSD1 and 11 beta-HSD2 antibody (Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Inc., Santa Cruz, CA, USA), each diluted 1:200 in PBS containing 0.1% bovine serum albumin. Immunostained sections were assessed under an Olympus microscope with an eyepiece reticule at 200 X magnification. Cell counts are expressed as means per high-power field (0.202 mm2). Control group means (arithmetic mean ± SD) were compared with patient group means by Mann-Whitney U-test at P = 0.05. RESULTS Although 11 beta-HSD1 was expressed to a similar extent in patients and controls, 11 beta-HSD2 was expressed significantly more in patients with severe allergic rhinitis, resulting in a increased HSD-1/HSD-2 ratio. The significantly increased expression of 11 beta-HSD2 in the nasal epithelium and submucosal inflammatory cells of patients with severe nasal allergy were observed in the present study. CONCLUSION Our findings suggest that 11 beta-HSD2 plays an important role in resistance to glucocorticoid therapy for allergic rhinitis, and its expression might be used as an additional parameter indicating steroid resistance in allergic rhinitis.

Abstract
Serine hydroxymethyltransferase (SHMT) is an enzyme that catalyzes the reaction that converts serine to glycine. It plays an important role in one-carbon metabolism. Recently, SHMT has been shown to be associated with various diseases. Therefore, SHMT has attracted attention as a biomarker and drug target. However, the development of molecular probes responsive to SHMT has not yet been realized. This is because SHMT catalyzes an essential yet simple reaction; thus, the substrates that can be accepted into the active site of SHMT are limited. Here, we focus on the SHMT-catalyzed retro-aldol reaction rather than the canonical serine–glycine conversion and succeed in developing fluorescent and 19F NMR molecular probes. Taking advantage of the facile and direct detection of SHMT, the developed fluorescent probe is used in the high-throughput screening for human SHMT inhibitors, and two hit compounds are obtained. The enzyme serine hydroxymethyltransferase (SHMT) has been implicated in several diseases, however is hard to investigate. Here, the authors used a design strategy based on the retro-aldol-type reaction catalyzed by SHMT to develop SHMT-responsive fluorescence and 19F NMR molecular probes.

Abstract
Magnetic reconnection is an energy conversion process that occurs in many astrophysical contexts including Earth's magnetosphere, where the process can be investigated in situ by spacecraft. On 11 July 2017, the four Magnetospheric Multiscale spacecraft encountered a reconnection site in Earth's magnetotail, where reconnection involves symmetric inflow conditions. The electron-scale plasma measurements revealed (i) super-Alfvénic electron jets reaching 15,000 kilometers per second; (ii) electron meandering motion and acceleration by the electric field, producing multiple crescent-shaped structures in the velocity distributions; and (iii) the spatial dimensions of the electron diffusion region with an aspect ratio of 0.1 to 0.2, consistent with fast reconnection. The well-structured multiple layers of electron populations indicate that the dominant electron dynamics are mostly laminar, despite the presence of turbulence near the reconnection site.

Abstract
In conventional metals, charge carriers basically move freely. In correlated electron materials, however, the electrons may become localized because of strong Coulomb interactions, resulting in an insulating state. Despite considerable progress in the last decades, elucidating the driving mechanisms that suppress metallic charge transport, the spatial evolution of this phase transition remains poorly understood on a microscopic scale. Here, we use cryogenic scanning near-field optical microscopy to study the metal-to-insulator transition in an electronically driven charge-ordered system with a 20-nm spatial resolution. In contrast to common mean-field considerations, we observe pronounced phase segregation with a sharp boundary between metallic and insulating regions evidencing its first-order nature. Considerable strain in the crystal spatially modulates the effective electronic correlations within a few micrometers, leading to an extended "zebra" pattern of metallic and insulating stripes. We can directly monitor the spatial strain distribution via a gradual enhancement of the optical conductivity as the energy gap is depressed. Our observations shed new light on previous analyses of correlation-driven metal-insulator transitions.
