Abstract
Time-in-target range (TTR) of systolic blood pressure (SBP) is determined by the proportion of time during which SBP remains within a defined optimal range. TTR has emerged as a useful metric for assessing SBP control over time. However, it is uncertain if SBP-TTR can predict the progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD). Here, we investigated the association between SBP-TTR during the first year of enrollment and CKD progression among 1758 participants from the KNOW-CKD (KoreaN Cohort Study for Outcomes in Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease). Baseline median estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was 51.7 ml/min per 1.73 m2. Participants were categorized into four SBP-TTR groups (0%, 1-50%, 51-99%, and 100%). The primary outcome was CKD progression defined as 50% or more decline in eGFR from baseline measurement or the initiation of kidney replacement therapy. During the follow-up period (9212 person-years over a median 5.4 years), the composite outcome occurred in 710 participants. In the multivariate cause-specific hazard model, a one-standard deviation increase in SBP-TTR was associated with an 11% lower risk of the composite outcome with hazard ratio, 0.89 (95% confidence interval, 0.82-0.97). Additionally, compared to patients with SBP-TTR 0%, the respective hazard ratios for those with SBP-TTR 1-50%, 51-99%, and 100% were 0.85 (0.68-1.07), 0.76 (0.60-0.96), and 0.72 (0.55-0.94), and the respective corresponding slopes of eGFR decline were -3.17 (-3.66 to -2.69), -3.02 (-3.35 to -2.68), -2.62 (-2.89 to - 2.36), and -2.33 (-2.62 to -2.04) ml/min/1.73 m2. Thus, higher SBP-TTR was associated with a decreased risk of CKD progression in patients with CKD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Fluid overload is an independent risk factor of mortality in patients with acute kidney injury (AKI) receiving continuous kidney replacement therapy (CKRT). However, the association between fluid status, as assessed by bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) or lung ultrasound, and survival in patients with AKI requiring CKRT has not been established. METHODS We analyzed 36 participants with sepsis-associated AKI who received CKRT at a tertiary hospital. The main exposures were volume surrogates: 1) overhydration normalized by extracellular water (OH/ECW, L/L) assessed by BIA, 2) the number of B-lines measured by lung ultrasound, and 3) weight change ([body weight at CKRT initiation - body weight at admission] × 100/body weight at admission). The primary outcome was the 28-day mortality. RESULTS Seventeen participants (47.2%) died within 28 days. There were no significant correlations between OH/ECW and weight change (R2 = 0.040, p = 0.24), number of B-lines and OH/ECW (R2 = 0.056, p = 0.16), or weight change and number of B-lines (R2 = 0.014, p = 0.49). Kaplan-Meier analyses revealed that patients in the highest tertile of OH/ECW showed a significantly lower cumulative 28-day survival probability than the others (the lowest + middle tertiles). The survival probability of participants in the highest tertile of the number of B-lines or weight change did not differ from that of their counterparts. In a multivariate Cox proportional hazard model, the hazard ratio for the highest tertile of OH/ECW was 3.83 (95% confidence interval, 1.04-14.03). CONCLUSION Volume overload assessed using BIA (OH/ECW) was associated with the 28-day survival rate in patients with sepsis-associated AKI who received CKRT.

Abstract
The relationship between declining nocturnal blood pressure (BP) and adverse cardiovascular outcomes is well-recognized. However, the relationship between diurnal BP profile and the risk of chronic kidney disease (CKD) progression is unclear. Herein, we examined the association between nocturnal systolic SBP (SBP) dipping and CKD progression in 1061 participants at the Cardiovascular and Metabolic Disease Etiology Research Center-High Risk (CMERC-HI). The main exposure was diurnal systolic BP (SBP) profile and diurnal SBP difference ([nighttime SBP-daytime SBP] × 100/daytime SBP). The primary outcome was CKD progression, defined as a composite of ≥ a 50% decline in the estimated glomerular filtration rate from baseline or the initiation of kidney replacement therapy. During 4749 person-years of follow-up (median, 4.8 years), the composite outcome occurred in 380 (35.8%) participants. Compared to dippers, the hazard ratios (HRs) for the risk of adverse kidney outcomes were 1.02 (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.64-1.62), 1.30 (95% CI, 1.02-1.66), and 1.40 (95% CI, 1.03-1.90) for extreme dipper, non-dipper, and reverse dipper, respectively. In a continuous modeling, a 10% increase in diurnal SBP difference was associated with a 1.21-fold (95% CI, 1.07-1.37) higher risk of CKD progression. Thus, decreased nocturnal SBP decline was associated with adverse kidney outcomes in patients with CKD. Particularly, patients with non-dipping and reverse dipping patterns were at higher risk for CKD progression than those with a dipping pattern.

Abstract
A great diversity of microorganisms in the soil plays an important role in the sustainability of agricultural production systems. Among these microorganisms are bacteria that have the ability to fix atmospheric nitrogen or mineralize phosphorus, thus making it easily assimilable for plants. Maize is the main crop in the highlands of Ecuador (above 2000 meters) and it is predominantly traditional, using native seeds and very little or no agrochemicals. The National Institute of Agricultural Research (INIAP) has a collection of bacteria collected from the rhizosphere of maize in the highlands of Ecuador that has not been taxonomically identified. This research aimed to carry out a biochemical and genetic characterization to establish the identity of the collected nitrogen-fixing and phosphorus-solubilizing bacteria and to understand better the diversity of microorganisms present in the root biome of Andean maize. The hypothesis consisted of determining if there is a difference in the bacteria associated with the rhizosphere of maize in the Andean region of Ecuador compared with other regions. The bacteria underwent classical biochemical characterization based on catalase, oxidase, urease, sulfates, indole, sulfate-indole motility (SIM), and lactose, among others, and genetic identification by 16S rDNA ribosomal gene sequencing, PCR, and SANGER sequencing. A great diversity of microorganisms associated with the rhizosphere of the crop was found, including the genera Agrobacterium, Bacillus, Stenotrophomonas, Acinetobacter, Brevundimonas, Pseudomonas, and Pseudoxanthomonas. INIAP conserves these bacteria in a bank of microorganisms associated with crops of economic importance. They are useful for the development of biofertilizers that could contribute to a more sustainable agriculture in the region.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The 2021 Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) clinical practice guideline for the management of blood pressure (BP) in chronic kidney disease (CKD) recommends a target systolic BP of <120 mmHg as this target can provide cardiovascular benefits. However, it remains unclear whether implementing the new BP target could improve kidney outcomes. METHODS The association between the 2021 KDIGO BP target and CKD progression was examined and compared with the 2012 KDIGO BP target among 1724 participants included in the KoreaN Cohort Study for Outcomes in Patients With CKD. The main exposure was the BP status categorized according to the 2012 or 2021 KDIGO guideline: (1) controlled within the 2021 target, (2) controlled within the 2012 target only, and (3) above both targets. The primary outcome was a composite kidney outcome of ≥50% decline in the estimated glomerular filtration rate from baseline or the initiation of kidney replacement therapy during the follow-up period. RESULTS Composite kidney outcomes occurred in 650 (37.7%) participants during the 8078 person-years of follow-up (median, 4.9 years). The incidence rates of this outcome were 55, 66.5, and 116.4 per 1000 person-years in BP controlled within the 2021 and 2012 KDIGO targets, and BP above both targets, respectively. In the multivariable cause-specific hazard model, hazard ratios for the composite outcome were 0.76 (95% confidence interval (CI), 0.60-0.95) for BP controlled within the 2021 target and 1.36 (95% CI, 1.13-1.64) for BP above both targets, compared with BP controlled within 2012 target only. CONCLUSION The newly lowered BP target by the 2021 KDIGO guideline was associated with improved kidney outcome compared with BP target by the 2012 KDIGO guideline.

Abstract
BACKGROUND:
Elevated blood pressure and intrarenal renin-angiotensin system activity are closely related to chronic kidney disease (CKD) progression. However, interrelationship between blood pressure and intrarenal renin-angiotensin system activity on the risk of CKD progression is unknown.
METHODS:
We analyzed 2076 participants from the Korean Cohort Study for Outcomes in Patients With CKD. The main exposure was systolic blood pressure (SBP). The urinary angiotensinogen-to-creatinine ratio was stratified according to the median value (3.65 μg/gCr). The primary outcome was a composite kidney outcome of a ≥50% decline in estimated glomerular filtration rate from baseline measurement or initiation of kidney replacement therapy.
RESULTS:
During 10 550 person-years of follow-up (median, 5.2 years), the composite outcome occurred in 800 (38.5%) participants. In the multivariable cause-specific hazard model, higher SBP was associated with an increased risk of CKD progression. There was a significant interaction between SBP and urinary angiotensinogen-to-creatinine ratio on the risk of the primary outcome (
P
value for interaction=0.019). In patients with urinary angiotensinogen-to-creatinine <3.65 μg/gCr, the hazard ratios (95% CIs) for SBP 120 to 129, 130 to 139, and ≥140 mmHg were 1.46 (1.07–1.99), 1.71 (1.25–2.35), and 2.40 (1.73–3.32), respectively, compared with SBP <120 mmHg. However, these associations were not observed in patients with urinary angiotensinogen-to-creatinine ≥3.65 μg/gCr.
CONCLUSIONS:
In this prospective CKD cohort, higher SBP was associated with CKD progression when urinary angiotensinogen levels were low, while this association was not seen when urinary angiotensinogen levels were high. This finding suggests that intrarenal renin-angiotensin system activity may modify the relationship between SBP and adverse kidney outcome.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Studies on the mutual relationship between blood pressure (BP) variability and arterial stiffness using time-dependent changes in arterial stiffness are scarce. METHODS In this prospective cohort of Korean patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) G1-G5 without kidney replacement therapy, we studied the bidirectional association between visit-to-visit SBP variability (VVSV) and arterial stiffness in 1036 participants who underwent brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV) measurement at baseline and year four. We constructed multivariable logistic regression models using two analytical sets. First, we determined the VVSV [standard deviation (SD)] of all SBP readings over 4 years, and then calculated the odds ratios (ORs) for arterial stiffness progression according to tertiles of VVSV. Arterial stiffness progression was defined as at least 75th percentile of the difference in baPWV between baseline and year four. Second, we analysed the ORs for at least 75th percentile of the 4-year VVSV according to tertiles of baseline baPWV. RESULTS Compared with the lowest tertile of VVSV (SD), the ORs [95% confidence interval (95% CI)] for arterial stiffness progression were 1.42 (0.96-2.10) and 1.64 (1.11-2.43) for the middle and highest tertiles, respectively. In the second analysis based on tertiles of baseline baPWV, the ORs for at least 75th percentile of VVSV (SD) were 1.41 (95% CI, 0.95-2.10) and 1.64 (95% CI, 1.04-2.61) for the middle and highest tertiles, respectively. This association was similar in both analytical models when VVSV and baPWV were treated as continuous variables. CONCLUSION There is a bidirectional relationship between BP variability and arterial stiffness in patients with CKD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND: Rapid diagnosis of drug-resistant TB is critical for early initiation of effective therapy. YD Diagnostics in South Korea recently developed the MolecuTech® REBA MTB-XMDR test to rapidly detect multidrug-resistant TB (MDR-TB), pre-extensively drug-resistant TB (pre-XDR-TB) and resistance to second-line injectable drugs (SLIDs) simultaneously using a fully automated test platform. This study aimed to evaluate the MolecuTech® test for the detection of MDR- and pre-XDR-TB, as well as SLID resistance.METHODS: A total of 151 clinical Mycobacterium tuberculosis isolates from South Korea were tested using the MolecuTech test, and the results were analysed by comparing these with phenotypic drug susceptibility testing (pDST) and sequencing.RESULTS: Compared to pDST, the MolecuTech test showed a sensitivity and specificity of respectively 97.7% and 100.0% for rifampicin (RIF), 82.4% and 100.0% for isoniazid (INH), 97.5% and 97.2% for fluoroquinolones (FQs), and 94.0% and 98.8% for SLIDs. Concordances with the sequencing results of each resistance determinant were 99.3% for RIF, 96.7% for INH, 98.7% for FQs and 99.3% for SLIDs.CONCLUSION: The MolecuTech test is an efficient and reliable rapid molecular diagnostic tool for the simultaneous screening of MDR- and pre-XDR-TB.

Abstract
Although the American Society for Bone and Mineral Research definition of atypical femoral fracture excludes periprosthetic fractures, fractures around the prosthesis with clinical features of atypical femoral fractures have been reported in the literature. All fractures reported thus far have been distal to the prosthetic segment; however, we encountered a case of a stress fracture in the middle of the femoral component segment. An 86-year-old woman with a history of bisphosphonate osteoporosis treatment and revisional total hip arthroplasty visited our outpatient clinic complaining of pain in the left thigh and groin. We diagnosed an incomplete atypical femoral fracture around the hip prosthesis; medical treatment was implemented. Two months later, the patient visited the emergency department with a complete subtrochanteric fracture with stem breakage. Without revision of the broken stem, two plates were applied after reduction. In this case, we recognized the possibility of a stress fracture but overlooked the possibility of stem breakage in an atypical femoral fracture. Even if it is not evident on the radiograph before complete fracture, clinicians should be alert to the signs of stress fracture in the middle of the femoral component segment, as they may be clues to atypical periprosthetic femoral fracture with stem failure. Isolated medical treatment plans are not recommended for incomplete subtrochanteric atypical periprosthetic femoral fracture. Instead, concomitant prophylactic plate fixation is recommended.

Abstract
Background Whether visit-to-visit systolic blood pressure (SBP) variability can predict major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) in patients with chronic kidney disease is unclear. Methods and Results We investigated the relationship between SDs of visit-to-visit SBP variability during the first year of enrollment and MACE among 1575 participants from KNOW-CKD (Korean Cohort Study for Outcome in Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease). Participants were categorized into 3 groups according to tertiles of visit-to-visit SBP variability (SD). The study end point was MACE, defined as a composite of nonfatal myocardial infarction, unstable angina, revascularization, nonfatal stroke, hospitalization for heart failure, or cardiac death. During 6748 patient-years of follow-up (median, 4.2 years), MACE occurred in 64 participants (4.1%). Compared with the lowest tertile of visit-to-visit SBP variability (SD), the hazard ratios (HRs) for the middle and the highest tertile were 1.64 (95% CI, 0.80-3.36) and 2.23 (95% CI, 1.12-4.44), respectively, in a multivariable cause-specific hazard model. In addition, the HR associated with each 5-mm Hg increase in visit-to-visit SBP variability (SD) was 1.21 (95% CI, 1.01-1.45). This association was consistent in sensitivity analyses with 2 additional definitions of SBP variability determined by the coefficient of variation and variation independent of the mean. The corresponding HRs for the middle and highest tertiles were 2.11 (95% CI, 1.03-4.35) and 2.28 (95% CI, 1.12-4.63), respectively, in the analysis with the coefficient of variation and 1.76 (95% CI, 0.87-3.57) and 2.04 (95% CI, 1.03-4.03), respectively, with the variation independent of the mean. Conclusions Higher visit-to-visit SBP variability is associated with an increased risk of MACE in patients with chronic kidney disease.

Abstract
Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors, which are recently introduced as glucose-lowering agents, improve cardiovascular and renal outcomes in patients with diabetes mellitus. These drugs also have beneficial effects in various kidney disease models. However, the effect of SGLT2 inhibitors on cisplatin-induced acute kidney injury (AKI) and their mechanism of action need to be elucidated. In this study, we investigated whether canagliflozin protects against cisplatin-induced AKI, depending on adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK) activation and following induction of autophagy. In the experiments using the HK-2 cell line, cell viability assay and molecular analysis revealed that canagliflozin protected renal proximal tubular cells from cisplatin, whereas addition of chloroquine or compound C abolished the protective effect of canagliflozin. In the mouse model of cisplatin-induced AKI, canagliflozin protected mice from cisplatin-induced AKI. However, treatment with chloroquine or compound C in addition to administration of cisplatin and canagliflozin eliminated the protective effect of canagliflozin. Collectively, these findings indicate that canagliflozin protects against cisplatin-induced AKI by activating AMPK and autophagy in renal proximal tubular cells.

Abstract
Arsenic contamination is a global problem, as it affects the health of millions of people. For this study, data-driven artificial neural network (ANN) software was developed to predict and validate the removal of As(V) from an aqueous solution using graphene oxide (GO) under various experimental conditions. A reliable model for wastewater treatment is essential in order to predict its overall performance and to provide an idea of how to control its operation. This model considered the adsorption process parameters (initial concentration, adsorbent dosage, pH, and residence time) as the input variables and arsenic removal as the only output. The ANN model predicted the adsorption efficiency with high accuracy for both training and testing datasets, when compared with the available response surface methodology (RSM) model. Based on the best model synaptic weights, user-friendly ANN software was created to predict and analyze arsenic removal as a function of adsorption process parameters. We developed various graphical user interfaces (GUI) for easy use of the developed model. Thus, a researcher can efficiently operate the software without an understanding of programming or artificial neural networks. Sensitivity analysis and quantitative estimation were carried out to study the function of adsorption process parameter variables on As(V) removal efficiency, using the GUI of the model. The model prediction shows that the adsorbent dosages, initial concentration, and pH are the most influential parameters. The efficiency was increased as the adsorbent dosages increased, decreasing with initial concentration and pH. The result show that the pH 2.0-5.0 is optimal for adsorbent efficiency (%).

Abstract
Peroxiredoxins (Prxs) are ubiquitously expressed peroxidases that reduce hydrogen peroxide or alkyl peroxide production in cells. Prxs are released from cells in response to various stress conditions, and they function as damage-associated molecular pattern molecules. However, the secretory mechanism of Prxs and their roles have not been elucidated. Thus, we aimed to determine whether inflammasome activation is a secretory mechanism of Prxs and subsequently identify the effect of the secreted Prxs on activation of the classical complement pathway. Using J774A.1, a murine macrophage cell line, we demonstrated that NLRP3 inflammasome activation induces Prx1, Prx2, Prx5, and Prx6 secretion in a caspase-1 dependent manner. Using HEK293T cells with a transfection system, we revealed that the release of Prx1 and Prx2 relies on gasdermin-D (GSDMD)-mediated secretion. Next, we confirmed the binding of both Prx1 and Prx2 to C1q; however, only Prx2 could induce the C1q-mediated classical complement pathway activation. Collectively, our results suggest that inflammasome activation is a secretory mechanism of Prxs and that GSDMD is a mediator of their secretion. Moreover, secreted Prx1 and Prx2 bind with C1q, but only Prx2 mediates the classical complement pathway activation.

Abstract
An AFF is a form of stress fracture induced by excessive physiologic repetitive stress over the bone remodeling capacity. Although glucocorticoid administration is a known risk factor for AFF, no case of AFF with glucocorticoid administration as the only risk factor has been previously reported. In this report, we aimed to highlight the risk of AFF associated with long-term administration of glucocorticoids, and the importance of surveillance and correction of risk factors in patients undergoing long-term glucocorticoid therapy. A 58-year-old male patient was diagnosed with subtrochanteric AFF. He had no medical history of any condition that might disrupt bone metabolism and no known risk factors for AFF, except for long-term administration of glucocorticoid. After fixation of the fracture, the glucocorticoid was replaced with an alternative medication. Although AFF is notorious for delayed union or nonunion, complete union of the fracture was obtained at 14 months postoperatively. This case brought to our attention the possibility that glucocorticoids alone may be responsible for inducing AFF and highlighted the importance of regular assessments in case of necessity of glucocorticoid administration. Additionally, correction of risk factors might expedite the union of AFF.

Abstract
The efficiency of heavy metal in biofilm reactors depends on absorption process parameters, and those relationships are complicated. This study explores artificial neural networks (ANNs) feasibility to correlate the biofilm reactor process parameters with absorption efficiency. The heavy metal removal and turbidity were modeled as a function of five process parameters, namely pH, temperature(°C), feed flux(ml/min), substrate flow(ml/min), and hydraulic retention time(h). We developed a standalone ANN software for predicting and analyzing the absorption process in handling industrial wastewater. The model was tested extensively to confirm that the predictions are reasonable in the context of the absorption kinetics principles. The model predictions showed that the temperature and pH values are the most influential parameters affecting absorption efficiency and turbidity.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Urinary chloride is regulated by kidney transport channels, and high urinary chloride concentration in the distal tubules can trigger tubuloglomerular feedback. However, little attention has been paid to urinary chloride as a biomarker of clinical outcomes. Here, we studied the relationship between urinary chloride concentration and chronic kidney disease (CKD) progression. METHODS We included 2086 participants with CKD from the KoreaN cohort study for Outcomes in patients With Chronic Kidney Disease. Patients were categorized into three groups, according to baseline urinary chloride concentration tertiles. The study endpoint was a composite of ≥50% decrease in estimated glomerular filtration rate from baseline values, or end-stage kidney disease. RESULTS During a median follow-up period of 3.4 years (7452 person-years), 565 participants reached the primary endpoint. There was a higher rate of CKD progression events in the lowest and middle tertiles than in the highest tertile. Compared with the lowest tertile, the highest tertile was associated with 33% [95% confidence interval (CI) 0.49-0.90] lower risk for the primary outcome in a cause-specific hazard model after adjustment for confounding variables. In addition, for every 25 mEq/L increase in urinary chloride concentration, there was 11% (95% CI 0.83-0.96) lower risk for CKD progression. This association was consistent in a time-varying model. Urinary chloride concentration correlated well with tubule function and kidney injury markers, and its predictive performance for CKD progression was comparable to that of these markers. CONCLUSIONS In this hypothesis-generating study, low urinary chloride concentration was associated with a higher risk for CKD progression.

Background
Current guidelines suggest the presence of non-sustained ventricular tachycardia (NSVT) as a risk factor of sudden cardiac death in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). However, high burden of premature ventricular contraction (PVC) may reflect myocardial fibrosis although the absence of NSVT.
Purpose
We investigated the association between PVC burden and myocardial extracellular space expansion in HCM patients without NSVT.
Methods
Of the 212 patients prospectively enrolled to the HCM registry of genetics, 84 patients were evaluated with both cardiac magnetic resonance and 24hr holter. Among them, 71 patients (58 males, mean age: 71 ± 13 years) have not been diagnosed with NSVT.
Results
Patients with NSVT (n = 13) showed more impaired LA functional indices and higher myocardial fibrosis burden compared with patients without NSVT (n = 71). Among patients who have not been diagnosed with NSVT, patients with late gadolinium enhancement (LGE, n = 46) had a higher total beats (109 ± 332 vs. 7 ± 13 beats per a day, p = 0.003) and burden (0.114 ± 0.225 vs. 0.008 ± 0.014 %, p = 0.003) of PVC during 24-hour compared with patients without LGE (n = 25). %LGE was correlated with total beats of PVC (r = 0.358, p = 0.002) and PVC burden (r = 0.377, p = 0.001). ECV also correlated with total beats of PVC (r = 0.387, p = 0.001) and PVC burden (r = 0.401, p = 0.001). The optimal cutoff value for PVC number was 45 (37.0% of sensitivity and 100% of specificity) with 0.733 of the area under the ROC curve (p < 0.001). Pathogenic or likely pathogenic sarcomere mutation was higher in NSVT group than no NSVT group (p < 0.05), and had a higher tendency in higher PVC burden group (0.05 < p < 0.1) than lower PVC burden group.
Conclusions
Total beats and burden of PVC are significantly related to increase in myocardial fibrosis in HCM patients without NSVT.

Abstract
The high mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) is a well-known late mediator of sepsis, secreted by multiple stimuli, involving pathways, such as the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) and nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) pathways, and reactive oxygen species (ROS) under inflammation. Sulfatide, in contrast, is a sphingolipid commonly found in myelin sheets with a disputed immunological role. We sought to determine the immunological characteristics of sulfatide in the periphery by analyzing the secretion of HMGB1 triggered by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) stimulation in Raw 264.7 cells. Suppression of HMGB1 secretion by inhibiting its cytosolic translocation was observed after pre-treatment with sulfatide before LPS stimulation. Further analysis of the downstream molecules of toll-like receptor (TLR) signaling revealed suppression of c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) phosphorylation and p65 translocation. LPS-mediated ROS production was also decreased when sulfatide pre-treatment was provided, caused by the down-regulation of the phosphorylation of activators, such as IRAK4 and TBK1. Investigation of the upstream mechanism that encompasses all the aforementioned inhibitory characteristics unveiled the involvement of lipid rafts. In addition to the co-localization of biotinylated sulfatide and monosialotetrahexosylganglioside, a decrease in LPS-induced co-localization of TLR4 and lipid raft markers was observed when sulfatide treatment was given before LPS stimulation. Overall, sulfatide was found to exert its anti-inflammatory properties by hindering the co-localization of TLR4 and lipid rafts, nullifying the effect of LPS on TLR4 signaling. Similar effects of sulfatide were also confirmed in the LPS-mediated murine experimental sepsis model, showing decreased levels of serum HMGB1, increased survivability, and reduced pathological severity.

Abstract
RATIONALE & OBJECTIVE Clinical practice guidelines recommend a target blood pressure (BP)<130/80 mm Hg to reduce cardiovascular risk. However, the optimal BP to prevent chronic kidney disease (CKD) is unknown. STUDY DESIGN Population-based retrospective cohort study. SETTING & PARTICIPANTS 10.5 million adults who participated in the National Health Insurance Service National Health Checkup Program in South Korea between 2009 and 2015 and had an estimated glomerular filtration rate (GFR) ≥ 60 mL/min/1.73 m2 at the beginning of follow-up. PREDICTORS Baseline and time-updated systolic BP (SBP) as a continuous variable and categorized as<110, 110 to 119, 120 to 129, 130 to 139, or≥140 mm Hg. OUTCOME Incident CKD GFR categories 3 to 5 (CKD G3-G5), defined as de novo development of estimated GFR<60 mL/min/1.73 m2 for at least 2 consecutive assessments confirmed at least 90 days apart. ANALYTICAL APPROACH Cox proportional hazards regression for baseline BP and marginal structural analysis for time-updated BP. RESULTS During 49,169,311 person-years of follow-up, incident CKD G3-G5 developed in 172,423 (1.64%) individuals with a crude event rate of 3.51 (95% CI, 3.49-3.52) per 1,000 person-years. Compared to a baseline SBP of 120 to 129 mm Hg, HRs for incident CKD G3-G5 for the<110, 110 to 119, 130 to 139, and≥140 mm Hg categories were 0.84 (95% CI, 0.82-0.85), 0.92 (95% CI, 0.91-0.94), 1.11 (95% CI, 1.09-1.12), and 1.30 (95% CI, 1.28-1.31), respectively. For time-updated SBPs, corresponding HRs were 0.57 (95% CI, 0.56-0.59), 0.79 (95% CI, 0.78-0.80), 1.58 (95% CI, 1.55-1.60), and 2.49 (95% CI, 2.45-2.53), respectively. Treated as a continuous exposure, each 10-mm Hg higher SBP was associated with 35% higher risk for incident CKD G3-G5 (95% CI, 1.35-1.36). LIMITATIONS Use of International Classification of Diseases codes to assess comorbid condition burden; residual confounding, and potential selection bias cannot be excluded. CONCLUSIONS In this large national cohort study, higher SBPs were associated with higher risk for incident CKD G3-G5. These findings support evaluation of SBP-lowering strategies to reduce the development of CKD.

Abstract
AIM To assess the predictive value of preoperative residual mammographic microcalcifications for residual tumours after neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) for breast cancer. MATERIALS AND METHODS This single-centre retrospective study included breast cancer patients who underwent NAC and demonstrated suspicious microcalcifications within or near the tumour bed on mammography from June 2015 to August 2018. The residual microcalcifications and remnant lesion on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) were correlated with histopathological findings of residual tumours and immunohistochemical markers. RESULTS A total of 96 patients were included. Ten patients achieved pathological complete response (pCR) and previous suspicious microcalcifications were associated with benign pathology in 10.4% (10/96) of the patients. In the remaining 86 patients who did not achieve pCR, 61.5% (59/96) of the residual microcalcifications were associated with invasive or in situ carcinoma and 28.1% (27/96) with benign pathology. Hormone receptor-positive (HR+) patients had the highest proportion of residual malignant microcalcifications compared to HR- patients (48.9% versus 13.5%, respectively; p=0.019). MRI correlated better than residual microcalcifications on mammography in predicting residual tumour extent in all subtypes (ICC=0.709 versus 0.365). MRI also showed higher correlation with residual tumour size for the HR-/HER2+ and HR-/HER2- subtype (ICC=0.925 and 0.876, respectively). CONCLUSION The extent of microcalcifications on mammography after NAC did not correlate with the extent of residual cancer in 38.5% of women. Regardless of the extent of microcalcifications, residual tumour extent on MRI after NAC and molecular subtype could be an accurate tool in evaluating residual cancer after NAC.

Abstract
Holigarna caustica (Dennst.), a popular plant used in folk medicine in Bangladesh, is often used by the local folk practitioner to treat a variety of chronic diseases. The present research is an attempt to find out an innovative therapeutic prospect for the management of neuropsychiatric disorders. The methanol extract of H. caustica leaves (MEHC) were utilized on various behavioral tests for assessing anxiolytic, anti-depressant, and anti-inflammatory activities. The antioxidant potentials and quantitative phytochemicals were evaluated through spectrophotometric methods. Results revealed that treatment of MEHC (200 and 400 mg/kg) significantly reduced anxiety like behaviors in mice, particularly, 400 mg/kg efficiently improved % of entries and time spent (p < 0.05) in the open arms in elevated plus maze test, whereas, superior head dipping tendency (p < 0.05) was observed in hole-board test. In contrast, mice treated with 200 mg/kg revealed better anxiolytic effect in both open field and hole-cross tests. During antidepressant evaluation, mice administrated with MEHC exhibited active behaviors (swimming and struggling) in forced swimming and tail suspension tests. In parallel, MEHC manifested a noteworthy (p < 0.001) suppression of inflammatory response induced by histamine. The MEHC also showed strong antioxidant activities in 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl radical (DPPH) (IC50: 57.64 μg/mL) scavenging, H2O2 (IC50: 51.60 μg/mL) scavenging, and ferric reducing power assay. The levels of total phenol, flavonoid, flavonol, condensed tannin, and antioxidant were estimated as higher in MEHC. Moreover, 11 compounds were documented as bioactive, displayed good binding affinities to potassium channel receptor, human serotonin receptor, cyclooxygenase (COX-1 and 2), and xanthine oxidoreductase enzyme targets in molecular docking experiments. Furthermore, ADME/T and Prediction of Activity Spectra for Substances (PASS) analyses exposed their drug-likeness, nontoxic upon consumption, and likely pharmacological actions. Overall, the H. caustica is potentially bioactive as evident by in vivo, in vitro, and computational analysis. Our findings support the folkloric value of this plant, which may provide a potential source towards developing drug leads.

Abstract
This study investigated the combined effects of cooking temperature and time on the meat and eating quality characteristics of the sous-vide chicken breast. For the control group, chicken breast samples were cooked in a convection oven until the internal temperature reached 71°C. Each sample for sous-vide cooking was vacuum packaged and then cooked under continuous thermocontrolled conditions in a water bath at 6 combinations of cooking temperature (60 and 70°C) and time (1, 2, and 3 h). Sous-vide cooked chicken meat at 60°C for 1 h (SV60-1h) showed lower cooking loss (6.58 vs. 26.5%, P < 0.05), Warner-Bratzler shear force (21.7 vs. 29.1 N, P < 0.05), and hardness (9.40 vs. 17.3 N, P < 0.05) than meat cooked by conventional oven. Similar to the objective tenderness parameters, cooked chicken meat from the SV60 treatments for all cooking times showed higher scores in all the tenderness attributes than the control group (P < 0.05). However, a higher flavor intensity was observed in the SV70-3h and control groups than in the SV60 treatments (P < 0.05). Owing to a lesser developed flavor in chicken meat from the SV60-1h treatment, the SV60-2h and 3h treatments were assigned a higher acceptability rating for overall impression (P < 0.05). Therefore, cooking temperature and time of sous-vide significantly influenced the physicochemical and palatability characteristics of chicken breast. In this study, the optimum conditions for the sous-vide chicken breast are to continuously cook at 60°C for 2 to 3 h to improve sensory quality characteristics without reducing the water-holding capacity.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To examine the association between income level and incident chronic kidney disease (CKD) in adults with normal baseline kidney function. PATIENT AND METHODS We studied the association between income level categorized into deciles and incident CKD in a national cohort comprised of 7,405,715 adults who underwent National Health Insurance Service health examinations during January 1, 2009, to December 31, 2015, with baseline estimated glomerular filtration rates (eGFRs) ≥60 mL/min/1.73 m2. Incident CKD was defined as de novo development of eGFR <60 mL/min/1.73 m2 (model 1) or ≥25% decline in eGFR from baseline values accompanied by eGFR <60 mL/min/1.73 m2 (model 2). RESULTS During a median follow-up of 4.8 years, there were 122,032 of 7,405,715 (1.65%) and 55,779 of 7,405,715 (0.75%) incident CKD events based on model 1 and 2 definitions, respectively. Compared with income levels in the sixth decile, there was an inverse association between lower income level and higher risk for CKD up to the fourth decile, above which no additional reduction (model 1) or slightly higher risk for CKD (model 2) was observed at higher income levels. The multivariable-adjusted hazard ratios from the lowest to fourth deciles were 1.30 (95% CI, 1.26-1.33), 1.16 (95% CI, 1.13-1.19), 1.07 (95% CI, 1.05-1.10), and 1.06 (95% CI, 1.03-1.09) in model 1 and 1.32 (95% CI, 1.27-1.37), 1.18 (95% CI, 1.14-1.22), 1.08 (95% CI, 1.04-1.13), and 1.05 (95% CI, 1.01-1.09) in model 2, respectively. These associations persisted across various subgroups of age, sex, and comorbidity status. CONCLUSION In this large nationwide cohort, lower income levels were associated with higher risk for incident CKD.

Abstract
Angelica gigas Nakai (AGN) is a popular traditional herbal medicine which has been used to alleviate various human diseases in Korea since ancient times. However, the low bioaccessibility of the nutraceutical compounds of AGN results in a poor water solubility, thereby limiting bioavailability. In this regard, a ternary AGN-biopolymer-plasticizer composite (AGNC) was developed to enhance the bioaccessibility of nutraceutical compounds from extrudate AGN formulations manufactured by hot melt extrusion (HME). The AGNC was prepared with extrudate AGN (EAGN) using different hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) biopolymers (5% w/w) viz.: hypromellose phthalate (HP), hypromellose (AN), and hypromellose (CN) along with acetic acid (AA) (0.1 M, 20% w/v) as a plasticizer. The non-extrudate fresh AGN (FAGN) powder was used as a control. The physicochemical properties of the extrudate formulations and control were characterized by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). DSC analysis showed a lower enthalpy (ΔH) (12.22 J/g) and lower glass transition temperature (Tg) (41 °C) in HP-AA-EAGN compared to the control. FTIR confirmed the physical crosslinking between AGN and biopolymer in the extrudate composite and demonstrated that some functional groups formed viz., -OH and -CH2. The obtained result also shows that the particle size was reduced by 341 nm, and solubility was increased by 65.5% in HP-AA-EAGN compared to the control (1499 nm, 29.4%, respectively). The bioaccessibility of the total phenolic content and the total flavonoids-including decursin (D) and decursinol angelate (DA)-were significantly higher in HP-AA-EAGN compared to the control. The 2,2-diphenyl-1 picryl hydrazyl (DPPH) free radical scavenging capacity and ferric reducing antioxidant power assay (FRAP) indicated that the HP-AA-EAGN formulation preserves a greater antioxidant profile than the other formulations. Finally, it is summarized that the addition of acidified HP biopolymer increased the bioaccessibility, functionality, and improved the physicochemical properties of nutraceutical compounds in the extrudate AGN formulation.

Abstract
Background There is a general consensus that elevated serum beta-2 microglobulin (B2M) levels measured at a single time-point are significantly associated with mortality in patients on maintenance dialysis. To date, the majority of prior studies that have examined B2M-associated mortality have been conducted in prevalent hemodialysis patients with little residual renal function (RRF). However, studies in incident peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients are lacking. Moreover, changes in serum B2M levels over time have not been considered in this population. Methods We examined the association of time-updated and baseline serum B2M levels with mortality in a 10-year cohort of 725 incident PD patients who were maintained on dialysis between January 2006 and December 2011 using Cox proportional hazards regression analyses. Patients were categorized into tertiles according to B2M levels. Results During a median follow-up of 38 (interquartile range 23-64) months, 258 (35.4%) deaths occurred, including 106 (14.6%) and 86 (11.9%) deaths from cardiovascular and infectious causes, respectively. The lowest B2M tertile was associated with a higher risk of all-cause and infectious mortality compared with the middle tertile: the hazard ratios (95% confidence interval) for all-cause deaths were 2.12 (1.38-3.26) and 2.20 (0.96-5.05) in time-varying analyses and 1.52 (1.07-2.17) and 2.41 (1.19-4.88) in baseline analyses. Subgroup analyses showed that this association was particularly observed in females, older patients, those with comorbidities such as diabetes, a lower body mass index, lower albumin levels or those with higher RRF (all P for interactions <0.05). Conclusions In incident PD patients, lower B2M levels were independently associated with overall and infectious mortality. These associations can be potentially modified by malnutrition, inflammation and RRF.

Abstract
Broomcorn millet (Panicum miliaceum L.) is an important nutritious ancient minor-cereal food crop. However, this crop is little explored in the food processing arena to improve its functionality. In this context, different processing methods were applied to enhance the secondary compounds of broomcorn millet. Four different individual methods such as roasting, steaming, puffing, and extrusion were applied at 110 °C to enhance the functional attributes of millet flour. It was observed that the significantly highest content of total phenolic (TP) (670 mg/100 g of ferulic acid equivalent) and total flavonoid (TF) (391 mg/100 g of rutin equivalent ) was attained in the roasted whole millet followed by steaming (315 mg/100 g, 282 mg/100 g), puffing (645 mg/100 g, 304 mg/100 g), extrusion (455 mg/100 g, 219 mg/100 g), and control (295 mg/100 g, 183 mg/100 g). The chromatographic analysis showed a greater content of single phenolic acids such as syringic acid, gallic acid, 4-hydroxy benzoic acid, ferulic acid, sinapic acid, and catechin in roasted millet compared to control, and the content of each acid was higher in whole millet than dehulled. Results also indicated that the content of ferulic acid was relatively higher among the quantified single phenolic acid from broomcorn millet. Likewise, in comparison with dehulled millet, the roasted whole millet showed higher total antioxidant capacity, measured by the 2,2-diphenyl-1 picryl hydrazyl (DPPH), the ferric reducing antioxidant power assay (FRAP), the phosphomolybdenum method (PPMD), and the hydroxyl radical scavenging capacity (HRSC) method. Lastly, it is concluded that the roasting method should be taken into consideration in the processing of broomcorn millet to enhance the content of nutraceutical compounds and improve its functionality.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM Metabolic syndromes are prevalent worldwide and result in various complications including obesity, cardiovascular disease and type II diabetes. Betulinic acid (BA) is a naturally occurring triterpenoid that has anti-inflammatory properties. We hypothesized that treatment with BA may result in decreased body weight gain, adiposity and hepatic steatosis in a diet-induced mouse model of obesity. METHODS AND RESULTS Mice fed a high-fat diet and treated with BA showed less weight gain and tissue adiposity without any change in calorie intake. Gene expression profiling of mouse tissues and cell lines revealed that BA treatment increased expression of lipid oxidative genes and decreased that of lipogenesis-related genes. This modulation was mediated by increased AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) phosphorylation, which facilitates energy expenditure, lipid oxidation and thermogenic capacity and exerts protective effects against obesity and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease. Overall, BA markedly inhibited the development of obesity and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease in mice fed a high-fat diet, and AMPK activation in various tissues and enhanced thermogenesis are two possible mechanisms underlying the antiobesity and antisteatogenic effects of BA. CONCLUSIONS The current findings suggest that treatment with BA is a potential dietary strategy for preventing obesity and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease.

Abstract
The poor bioaccessibility of the phenolic compounds of soybeans is a key challenge to developing functional food products. Therefore, a novel hydrophilic food-grade hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) polymer was added to soybean to prepare a soybean food composite (SFC), in order to improve the soybean's functionality. The SFC was prepared with soybean (95%) plus HPMC (5%) (w/w) mixes (HSE), as well as 100% soybean extrudate (SE), at 80 °C and 130 °C by a hot melt extrusion (HME) process. A non-extrudate 100% soybean material was considered as a control. It is observed that water solubility was significantly increased (35.18%), and particle size reached to nano-size (171.5 nm) in HSE at 130 °C compared to the control (7.14% and 1166 nm, respectively). The total phenolic, flavonoid, and single isoflavones content, including daidzin, daidzein, glycitein, genistein, and genistin was significantly increased in HSE at 130 °C compared to the control. The antioxidant properties were also significantly increased in HSE at 130 °C compared to the control, measured by 2,2-diphenyl-1 picryl hydrazyl (DPPH), a ferric reducing antioxidant power assay (FRAP), and the phosphomolybdenum method (PPMD). Finally, it is concluded that the HPMC polymer could be used as a novel excipient to develop nanocomposite via HME, in order to improve the functionality of soybean food products.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of far infrared irradiation (FIR) on nutraceutical compounds, viz. total phenolic content, total flavonoids, and antioxidant capacity, of Angelica gigas Nakai (AGN). The FIR treatment was applied for 30 min with varied temperatures of 120, 140, 160, 180, 200, 220, and 240 °C. Results showed that FIR increased total phenolic and flavonoid content in AGN at 220 °C. The HPLC results revealed higher quantities of decursin (62.48 mg/g) and decursinol angelate (41.51 mg/g) at 220 °C compared to control (38.70 mg/g, 27.54 mg/g, respectively). The antioxidant capacity of AGN was also increased at 220 °C, as measured by 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH), ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP), and the phosphomolybdenum (PPMD) method. A further increase of the FIR temperature caused a reduction of compound content. In addition, the results also showed a strong correlation between phenolic content and antioxidant properties of AGN powder. These findings will help to further improve the nutraceutical profile of AGN powder by optimizing the FIR conditions.

Abstract
The effect of light emitting diode (LED) light and far infrared irradiation (FIR) on total phenol, isoflavones and antioxidant activity were investigated in soybean (Glycine max L.) sprout. Artificial blue (470 nm), green (530 nm) LED and florescent light (control) were applied on soybean sprout, from three to seven days after sowing (DAS) in growth chamber. The photosynthetic photon flux density (PPFD) and photoperiod was 150 ± 5 μmol m−2s−1 and 16 h, respectively. The FIR was applied for 30, 60 and 120 min at 90, 110 and 130 °C on harvested sprout. Total phenolic content (TP) (59.81 mg/g), antioxidant capacity (AA: 75%, Ferric Reduction Antioxidant Power (FRAP): 1357 µM Fe2+) and total isoflavones content (TIC) (51.1 mg/g) were higher in blue LED compared to control (38.02 mg/g, 58%, 632 µM Fe2+ and 30.24 mg/g, respectively). On the other hand, TP (64.23 mg/g), AA (87%), FRAP (1568 µM Fe2+) and TIC (58.98 mg/g) were significantly increased by FIR at 110 °C for 120 min among the treatments. Result suggests that blue LED is the most suitable light to steady accumulation of secondary metabolites (SM) in growing soybean sprout. On the other hand, FIR at 110 °C for 120 min is the best ailment to induce SM in proceed soybean sprout.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Cognizance of common reasons for failure in primary and revision TKA, together with their time course, facilitates prevention. However, there have been few reports specifically comparing modes of failure for primary vs. revision TKA using a single prosthesis. The goal of the study was to compare the survival rates, modes of failure, and time periods associated with each mode of failure, of primary vs. revision TKA. HYPOTHESIS The survival rates, modes of failure, time period for each mode of failure, and risk factors would differ between primary and revision TKA. MATERIAL AND METHODS Data from a consecutive cohort comprising 1606 knees (1174 patients) of primary TKA patients, and 258 knees (224 patients) of revision TKA patients, in all of whom surgery involved a P.F.C® prosthesis (Depuy, Johnson & Johnson, Warsaw, IN), was retrospectively reviewed. The mean follow-up periods of primary and revision TKAs were 9.2 and 9.8 years, respectively. RESULTS The average 10- and 15-year survival rates for primary TKA were 96.7% (CI 95%,±0.7%) and 85.4% (CI 95%,±2.0%), and for revision TKA 91.4% (CI 95%,±2.5%) and 80.5% (CI 95%,±4.5%). Common modes of failure included polyethylene wear, loosening, and infection. The most common mode of failure was polyethylene wear in primary TKA, and infection in revision TKA. The mean periods (i.e., latencies) of polyethylene wear and loosening did not differ between primary and revision TKAs, but the mean period of infection was significantly longer for revision TKA (1.2 vs. 4.8 years, P=0.003). DISCUSSION Survival rates decreased with time, particularly more than 10 years post-surgery, for both primary and revision TKAs. Continuous efforts are required to prevent and detect the various modes of failure during long-term follow-up. Greater attention is necessary to detect late infection-induced failure following revision TKA. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Case-control study, Level III.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Development of noninvasive imaging biomarkers indicating the histology and the gene mutation status of brain metastasis from lung cancer is important. We aimed to investigate diffusion-weighted imaging parameters as predictors of the histology and gene mutations of brain metastasis from lung cancer. MATERIALS AND METHODS DWI data for 74 patients with brain metastasis from lung cancer were retrospectively reviewed. The patients were first grouped according to the primary tumor histology (adenocarcinoma, small-cell lung cancer, squamous cell carcinoma), and those with adenocarcinoma were further divided into epidermal growth factor receptor (EFGR) mutation-positive and wild type groups. Sex; age; number, size, and location of brain metastasis; DWI visual scores; the minimum ADC; and the normalized ADC ratio were compared among groups using χ2 and ANOVA. Multiple logistic regression analysis was performed to determine independent predictors of the EGFR mutation. RESULTS The minimum ADC was lower in the small-cell lung cancer group than in the other 2 groups, though the difference was not significant. Furthermore, minimum ADC and the normalized ADC ratio were significantly lower in the EGFR mutation-positive group than in the wild type group (P = .021 and .014, respectively). Multivariate analysis revealed that minimum ADC and the normalized ADC ratio were independently associated with the EGFR mutation status (P = .028 and .021, respectively). CONCLUSIONS Our results suggest that DWI parameters (minimum ADC and normalized ADC ratio) for the solid components of brain metastasis from lung cancer are not correlated with their histology, whereas they can predict the EGFR mutation status in brain metastasis from lung adenocarcinoma.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Although total knee arthroplasty (TKA) in haemophilic arthropathy can reduce severe joint pain and improve functional disability, it is technically demanding. AIM To evaluate mid-term outcomes and complications of TKA in haemophilic arthropathy. METHODS This study retrospectively reviewed 131 consecutive primary TKAs in a single institute. The mean age was 41.0 years old, and the mean follow-up period was 6.8 years. Clinical and radiographic results were evaluated. Complications were categorized according to the classification system of the Knee Society for TKA complications. RESULTS The average Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Arthritis Index (WOMAC) score improved from 66.0 to 24.2. The average flexion contracture significantly decreased from 17.3° to 4.7°, but the average pre- and postoperative maximum flexion did not differ (80.9° vs 85.6°, respectively). The average mechanical axis was varus 5.2° preoperatively and valgus 0.3° postoperatively. The coronal positions of the femoral and tibial components and the sagittal positions of these components were within ±3° in 83.2%, 89.3%, 63.4% and 73.3% of cases, respectively. Complications occurred in 17 knees (13.0%): hemarthrosis (n = 7), medial collateral ligament injury (n = 1), stiffness (n = 2), deep periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) (n = 3) and periprosthetic fracture (n = 4). CONCLUSIONS The mid-term results of TKA in haemophilic arthropathy were satisfactory in pain relief, improved function and decreased flexion contracture. Bleeding and PJI continue to be major concerns for TKA in haemophilic arthropathy, and risk of periprosthetic fracture must be taken into account for patient education and appropriate prevention.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In order to increase eradication rates, vonoprazan, a novel potassium-competitive acid blocker, has been used in Helicobacter pylori eradication therapy. AIM To summarise the results of the efficacy of vonoprazan-based triple therapy, helping clinicians to better understand the benefit of vonoprazan in the treatment of H. pylori infection. METHODS We conducted a systematic literature search on MEDLINE, EMBASE, and the Cochrane Library using the primary keywords "vonoprazan," "takecab", "TAK-438," "potassium," "competitive," "potassium-competitive," "Helicobacter," and "pylori." Studies were included if they evaluated the eradication rate between the vonoprazan-based and proton pump inhibitor (PPI)-based triple therapies. RESULTS Ten studies and 10 644 patients were evaluated. The crude H. pylori eradication rate determined by intention-to-treat analysis was 87.9% and 72.8% in the vonoprazan-based triple therapy and PPI-based triple therapy respectively. The eradication rate of the vonoprazan-based triple therapy was superior to that of the PPI-based triple therapy (pooled risk ratio [RR] [95% confidence interval (CI)]=1.19 [1.15-1.24]) In addition, there was no significant difference in dropout rate due to adverse event between the regimens (pooled RR of the vonoprazan-based triple therapy [95% CI]=0.69 [0.23-2.03]). The incidence of any adverse events also did not differ between the regimens (pooled RR [95% CI]=1.02 [0.78-1.34]). CONCLUSIONS The vonoprazan-based triple therapy showed superior efficacy in terms of H. pylori eradication as compared to the PPI-based triple therapy. In addition, the vonoprazan-based triple therapy showed comparable tolerability and incidence of adverse events.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The association of dyslipidemia with mortality has not been fully evaluated in patients on peritoneal dialysis (PD). Moreover, changes in lipids levels over time and associated death risk have not yet been studied in this population. OBJECTIVE We studied the association of time-updated serum lipid concentrations with all-cause and cardiovascular (CV) mortalities in a 10-year cohort of 749 incident PD patients. METHODS Association was assessed using time-varying Cox proportional hazard regression models with adjustment for multiple variables including statin therapy. RESULTS During a median follow-up of 36 (interquartile range, 21-61) months, 273 all-cause and 107 CV deaths occurred. Compared with those with total cholesterol (TC) of 180 to <210 or low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) of 100 to <130 mg/dL, hazard ratios (95% confidence interval) of the lowest TC (<150 mg/dL) and LDL-C (<70 mg/dL) were 2.32 (1.61-3.35) and 2.02 (1.45-2.83) for all-cause mortality and 1.87 (1.04-3.37) and 1.92 (1.13-3.26) for CV mortality, respectively. Lower triglyceride (<100 mg/dL) and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (<30 mg/dL) levels were associated with higher all-cause mortality (1.66 [1.11-2.47] and 1.57 [1.08-2.29]) but not with CV mortality. CONCLUSIONS Contrary to the general population, lower TC and LDL-C levels over time were significantly associated with both worse survival and increased CV mortality in incident PD patients. Although lower triglyceride and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol concentrations were associated with significantly higher all-cause mortality, they failed to show any clear association with CV mortality. The underlying mechanisms responsible for this apparent paradox await further investigations.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION It has become clear that obesity is associated with a variety of infectious diseases, including urinary tract infection (UTI) and renal scarring. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to evaluate the association between obesity and the degree of febrile UTI (fUTI) and renal scarring in children with vesicoureteral reflux (VUR), and to stratify the results into obesity subcategories. STUDY DESIGN A total of 186 patients were diagnosed with VUR between January 2002 and December 2008. This study retrospectively reviewed the medical records of 72 children with primary VUR who had recurrent fUTI (more than twice). Overweight or obese status of the patients aged <2 years was defined using weight-for-length (WFL) measurements. For 2-5 year old children, body mass index (BMI) percentile-for-age was used. They were divided into three groups as follows; standard (<85%), overweight (85-95%), and obese (≥95%). The following clinical variables were compared: age at diagnosis of primary VUR (months), sex, VUR grade, hydronephrosis grade, presence of renal scarring, surgical treatment, and degree of inflammation during fUTI. RESULTS In the overweight and obese groups, VUR was diagnosed at a young age (P = 0.05), the degree of renal scarring was more severe (P = 0.006), and serum white blood cell count, C-reactive protein, and erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) levels were significantly higher (P < 0.001, P < 0.001, and P < 0.001, respectively). Abnormal focal dimercaptosuccinic acid (DMSA) defects were present in 25 of the 72 children (35%). Cortical defects occurred more frequently in children with obesity, and they were associated with a higher grade of reflux and serum ESR levels (P = 0.007, P = 0.042, and P = 0.021, respectively). Among these risk factors, high-grade VUR (OR = 9.93, 95% CI = 1.13-86.71), and being overweight and obese (OR = 5.26, 95% CI = 1.75-15.82) were associated with increased renal scarring. However, ESR was not associated with renal scarring (OR = 1.01, 95% CI = 0.95-1.07). DISCUSSION The relationships between obesity and UTI are controversial. Some studies have shown positive results; however, other studies have shown opposite results. The main limitations of this study were the retrospective data collection via electronic medical records, and the small number of subjects. CONCLUSIONS This study showed that obesity in patients with VUR has an effect on fUTI and renal scar formation. If the patients with VUR have obesity, close follow-up should be performed, and VUR patients should be started on a weight-loss program, which could reduce the number of patients with chronic kidney disease in the future.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to evaluate the persistence with solifenacin therapy over a 12-month period in patients with overactive bladder (OAB). METHODS This is a 52-week long, multicenter, prospective, observational study. The subjects were individuals ≥ 18 years old with OAB symptoms for ≥ 3 months, characterised by a total OAB Symptom Score (OABSS) of ≥ 3 and OABSS urgency item score of ≥ 2. Patients were prescribed 5 mg or 10 mg of solifenacin once daily for OAB symptoms. Drug persistence, reasons for discontinuation and factors related to the persistence were evaluated. RESULTS A total of 1018 patients (329 men, 689 women) with a mean age of 59 years were included. The 52-week drug persistence rate was 22.1%. The drug persistence rates at 12, 24 and 36 weeks were 72.4%, 45.8% and 31.1% respectively. The three most common reasons for discontinuing therapy included symptom improvement in 30.4%, lack of efficacy in 13.4%, and a switch to another antimuscarinic agent in 10.8%. Older patients (odds ratio = 1.02, 95% CI: 1.01-1.04), and female patients (odds ratio = 1.94, 95% CI: 1.37-2.75) were more likely to continue the medication over the 12-month period than were younger, male patients. The number of nocturia episodes was negatively correlated with drug persistence (odds ratio = 0.83, 95% CI: 0.71-0.97). CONCLUSIONS There was low persistence (22%) to solifenacin therapy for OAB symptoms over a 12-month period. Older patients, female patients and those with fewer episodes of nocturia were more persistent to therapy than were others.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the change in sagittal tibiotalar alignment after total ankle arthroplasty (TAA) for osteoarthritis and to investigate factors affecting the restoration of alignment. This retrospective study included 119 patients (120 ankles) who underwent three component TAA using the Hintegra prosthesis. A total of 63 ankles had anterior displacement of the talus before surgery (group A), 49 had alignment in the normal range (group B), and eight had posterior displacement of the talus (group C). Ankles in group A were further sub-divided into those in whom normal alignment was restored following TAA (41 ankles) and those with persistent displacement (22 ankles). Radiographic and clinical results were assessed. Pre-operatively, the alignment in group A was significantly more varus than that in group B, and the posterior slope of the tibial plafond was greater (p < 0.01 in both cases). The posterior slope of the tibial component was strongly associated with restoration of alignment: ankles in which the alignment was restored had significantly less posterior slope (p < 0.001). An anteriorly translated talus was restored to a normal position after TAA in most patients. We suggest that surgeons performing TAA using the Hintegra prosthesis should aim to insert the tibial component at close to 90° relative to the axis of the tibia, hence reducing posterior soft-tissue tension and allowing restoration of normal tibiotalar alignment following surgery.

Abstract
PURPOSE The aim of this study was to evaluate the outcome of reoperation in recurrent gastric cancers. MATERIALS AND METHODS We conducted a retrospective analysis of 86 patients who underwent reoperation for recurrent gastric cancer. We reviewed the time interval between first operation and reoperation, as well as the recurrence pattern, type of reoperation, and survival following reoperation. RESULTS the average time to reoperation following curative resection was 27.8+/-25.9 months (median 18.4 months). Fifty-three cases (61.6%) of reoperation were performed within 2 years follwoing the first operation. The most common reason for reoperation was intestinal obstruction followed by gastric remnant recurrence and intra-abdominal mass. Complete resection was possible in 14 cases (16.3%) and a palliative procedure such as partial resection or bypass procedures was performed in 54 cases. In 18 cases (20.9%), simple lapalotomy was done without any aid. The most common site of recurrence was the peritoneum followed by the gastric remnant, distant lymph node and hematogenous liver metastasis. Operative mortality was 10.5%. Excluding the 9 cases of operative mortality, the mean survival time after reoperation was 15.4+/-2.5 months (mean 8.6 months). Survival following complete resection was much longer than palliative procedure and exploration only (37.9+/-8.7 vs 10.9+/-1.5 vs 4.7+/-0.8 months, p=0.000). CONCLUSION The complete resection of recurrent gastric cancer can prolong survival. Early detection of localized recurrence is important in order to increase the chance of complete resection.

Abstract
PURPOSE Lung size matching is important in lung transplantation (LT). With advances in computed tomography (CT) technology, multidetector row CT can accurately measure the thoracic cage and lung volumes. The objective of this study was to generate a new regression equation using demographic data based on the measured CT lung volume in a healthy population to predict the CT lung volume of the donor in LT size matching. MATERIALS AND METHODS The medical records of healthy subjects who underwent chest CT scans to screen for lung cancer were retrospectively reviewed. CT lung volume was semi-automatically measured using a threshold-based auto-segmentation technique. New regression equations for CT lung volume were generated by multiple linear regression analysis using demographic data including height (H, cm), weight (W, kg), and age (A, years). The percentage error rate (%) of the equations were calculated as ([Estimated CT lung volume--Measured CT lung volume]/Measured CT lung volume × 100). A percentage error rate within ± 20% was considered acceptable. RESULTS A total of 141 men aged 27 to 55 years (mean, 46.7 ± 6.2 years) and 128 women aged 20 to 55 years (mean, 45.4 ± 7.2 years) were enrolled. The final regression equations for CT lung volume were (-5.890 + 0.067 H - 0.030 W + 0.020 A) in men and (-6.698 + 0.072 H - 0.024 W) in women. The mean absolute error rate was 10.9 ± 9.0% and 11.0 ± 8.5% in men and women, respectively. Percentage error rates were within ± 20% in 121 of 141 (85.8%) men and 113 of 128 (88.3%) women. CONCLUSION These equations could predict the CT lung volume of healthy subjects using demographic data. Using these equations, the predicted CT lung volume of donors could be matched to the measured CT lung volume of recipients in lung transplantation.

Abstract
Low residual renal function (RRF) and serum bicarbonate are associated with adverse outcomes in peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients. However, a relationship between the 2 has not yet been determined in these patients. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate whether low serum bicarbonate has a deteriorating effect on RRF in PD patients.This prospective observational study included a total of 405 incident patients who started PD between January 2000 and December 2005. We determined risk factors for complete loss of RRF using competing risk methods and evaluated the effects of time-averaged serum bicarbonate (TA-Bic) on the decline of RRF over the first 3 years of dialysis treatment using generalized linear mixed models.During the first 3 years of dialysis, 95 (23.5%) patients became anuric. The mean time until patients became anuric was 20.8 ± 9.0 months. After adjusting for multiple potentially confounding covariates, an increase in TA-Bic level was associated with a significantly decreased risk of loss of RRF (hazard ratio per 1 mEq/L increase, 0.84; 0.75-0.93; P = 0.002), and in comparison to TA-Bic ≥ 24 mEq/L, TA-Bic < 24 mEq/L conferred a 2.62-fold higher risk of becoming anuric. Furthermore, the rate of RRF decline estimated by generalized linear mixed models was significantly greater in patients with TA-Bic < 24 mEq/L compared with those with TA-Bic ≥ 24 mEq/L (-0.16 vs -0.11 mL/min/mo/1.73 m, P < 0.001).In this study, a clear association was found between low serum bicarbonate and loss of RRF in PD patients. Nevertheless, whether correction of metabolic acidosis for this indication provides additional protection for preserving RRF in these patients is unknown. Future interventional studies should more appropriately address this question.
