Abstract
The aim of this study was to conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis of the efficacy of fascial closure using antimicrobial-sutures specifically for the prevention of surgical site infections (SSIs) in gastrointestinal surgery, as part of the revision of the SSI prevention guidelines of the Japanese Society of Surgical Infectious Diseases (JSSI). We searched CENTRAL, PubMed and ICHUSHI-Web in May 2023, and included randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comparing antimicrobial-coated and non-coated sutures for fascial closure in gastrointestinal surgery (PROSPERO No. CRD42023430377). Three authors independently screened the RCTs. We assessed the risk of bias and the GRADE criteria for the extracted data. The primary outcome was incisional SSI and the secondary outcomes were abdominal wall dehiscence and the length of postoperative hospital stay. This study was supported partially by the JSSI. A total of 10 RCTs and 5396 patients were included. The use of antimicrobial-coated sutures significantly lowered the risk of incisional SSIs compared with non-coated suture (risk ratio: 0.79, 95% confidence intervals: 0.64-0.98). In subgroup analyses, antimicrobial-coated sutures reduced the risk of SSIs for open surgeries, and when monofilament sutures were used. Antimicrobial-coated sutures did not reduce the incidence of abdominal wall dehiscence and the length of hospital stay compared with non-coated sutures. The certainty of the evidence was rated as moderate according to the GRADE criteria, because of risk of bias. In conclusion, the use of antimicrobial-coated sutures for fascial closure in gastrointestinal surgery is associated with a significantly lower risk of SSI than non-coated sutures.

BACKGROUND Sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitors reduce progression of chronic kidney disease and the risk of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in a wide range of patients. However, their effects on kidney disease progression in some patients with chronic kidney disease are unclear because few clinical kidney outcomes occurred among such patients in the completed trials. In particular, some guidelines stratify their level of recommendation about who should be treated with SGLT2 inhibitors based on diabetes status and albuminuria. We aimed to assess the effects of empagliflozin on progression of chronic kidney disease both overall and among specific types of participants in the EMPA-KIDNEY trial. METHODS EMPA-KIDNEY, a randomised, controlled, phase 3 trial, was conducted at 241 centres in eight countries (Canada, China, Germany, Italy, Japan, Malaysia, the UK, and the USA), and included individuals aged 18 years or older with an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) of 20 to less than 45 mL/min per 1·73 m2, or with an eGFR of 45 to less than 90 mL/min per 1·73 m2 with a urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (uACR) of 200 mg/g or higher. We explored the effects of 10 mg oral empagliflozin once daily versus placebo on the annualised rate of change in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR slope), a tertiary outcome. We studied the acute slope (from randomisation to 2 months) and chronic slope (from 2 months onwards) separately, using shared parameter models to estimate the latter. Analyses were done in all randomly assigned participants by intention to treat. EMPA-KIDNEY is registered at ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT03594110. FINDINGS Between May 15, 2019, and April 16, 2021, 6609 participants were randomly assigned and then followed up for a median of 2·0 years (IQR 1·5-2·4). Prespecified subgroups of eGFR included 2282 (34·5%) participants with an eGFR of less than 30 mL/min per 1·73 m2, 2928 (44·3%) with an eGFR of 30 to less than 45 mL/min per 1·73 m2, and 1399 (21·2%) with an eGFR 45 mL/min per 1·73 m2 or higher. Prespecified subgroups of uACR included 1328 (20·1%) with a uACR of less than 30 mg/g, 1864 (28·2%) with a uACR of 30 to 300 mg/g, and 3417 (51·7%) with a uACR of more than 300 mg/g. Overall, allocation to empagliflozin caused an acute 2·12 mL/min per 1·73 m2 (95% CI 1·83-2·41) reduction in eGFR, equivalent to a 6% (5-6) dip in the first 2 months. After this, it halved the chronic slope from -2·75 to -1·37 mL/min per 1·73 m2 per year (relative difference 50%, 95% CI 42-58). The absolute and relative benefits of empagliflozin on the magnitude of the chronic slope varied significantly depending on diabetes status and baseline levels of eGFR and uACR. In particular, the absolute difference in chronic slopes was lower in patients with lower baseline uACR, but because this group progressed more slowly than those with higher uACR, this translated to a larger relative difference in chronic slopes in this group (86% [36-136] reduction in the chronic slope among those with baseline uACR <30 mg/g compared with a 29% [19-38] reduction for those with baseline uACR ≥2000 mg/g; ptrend<0·0001). INTERPRETATION Empagliflozin slowed the rate of progression of chronic kidney disease among all types of participant in the EMPA-KIDNEY trial, including those with little albuminuria. Albuminuria alone should not be used to determine whether to treat with an SGLT2 inhibitor. FUNDING Boehringer Ingelheim and Eli Lilly.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The EMPA-KIDNEY trial showed that empagliflozin reduced the risk of the primary composite outcome of kidney disease progression or cardiovascular death in patients with chronic kidney disease mainly through slowing progression. We aimed to assess how effects of empagliflozin might differ by primary kidney disease across its broad population. METHODS EMPA-KIDNEY, a randomised, controlled, phase 3 trial, was conducted at 241 centres in eight countries (Canada, China, Germany, Italy, Japan, Malaysia, the UK, and the USA). Patients were eligible if their estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was 20 to less than 45 mL/min per 1·73 m2, or 45 to less than 90 mL/min per 1·73 m2 with a urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (uACR) of 200 mg/g or higher at screening. They were randomly assigned (1:1) to 10 mg oral empagliflozin once daily or matching placebo. Effects on kidney disease progression (defined as a sustained ≥40% eGFR decline from randomisation, end-stage kidney disease, a sustained eGFR below 10 mL/min per 1·73 m2, or death from kidney failure) were assessed using prespecified Cox models, and eGFR slope analyses used shared parameter models. Subgroup comparisons were performed by including relevant interaction terms in models. EMPA-KIDNEY is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT03594110. FINDINGS Between May 15, 2019, and April 16, 2021, 6609 participants were randomly assigned and followed up for a median of 2·0 years (IQR 1·5-2·4). Prespecified subgroupings by primary kidney disease included 2057 (31·1%) participants with diabetic kidney disease, 1669 (25·3%) with glomerular disease, 1445 (21·9%) with hypertensive or renovascular disease, and 1438 (21·8%) with other or unknown causes. Kidney disease progression occurred in 384 (11·6%) of 3304 patients in the empagliflozin group and 504 (15·2%) of 3305 patients in the placebo group (hazard ratio 0·71 [95% CI 0·62-0·81]), with no evidence that the relative effect size varied significantly by primary kidney disease (pheterogeneity=0·62). The between-group difference in chronic eGFR slopes (ie, from 2 months to final follow-up) was 1·37 mL/min per 1·73 m2 per year (95% CI 1·16-1·59), representing a 50% (42-58) reduction in the rate of chronic eGFR decline. This relative effect of empagliflozin on chronic eGFR slope was similar in analyses by different primary kidney diseases, including in explorations by type of glomerular disease and diabetes (p values for heterogeneity all >0·1). INTERPRETATION In a broad range of patients with chronic kidney disease at risk of progression, including a wide range of non-diabetic causes of chronic kidney disease, empagliflozin reduced risk of kidney disease progression. Relative effect sizes were broadly similar irrespective of the cause of primary kidney disease, suggesting that SGLT2 inhibitors should be part of a standard of care to minimise risk of kidney failure in chronic kidney disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Surgical site infections (SSIs) increase mortality, hospital stays, additional medical treatment, and medical costs. Subcutaneous drains prevent SSIs in gynecological and breast surgeries; however, their clinical impact in abdominal surgery remains unclear. AIM To investigate whether subcutaneous drains were beneficial in abdominal surgery using a systematic review and meta-analysis. METHODS The database search used PubMed, MEDLINE, and the Cochrane Library. The following inclusion criteria were set for the systematic review: (1) Randomized controlled trial studies comparing SSIs after abdominal surgery with or without subcutaneous drains; and (2) Studies that described clinical outcomes, such as SSIs, seroma formation, the length of hospital stays, and mortality. RESULTS Eight studies were included in this meta-analysis. The rate of total SSIs was significantly lower in the drained group (54/771, 7.0%) than in the control group (89/759, 11.7%), particularly in gastrointestinal surgery. Furthermore, the rate of superficial SSIs was slightly lower in the drained group (31/517, 6.0%) than in the control group (49/521, 9.4%). No significant differences were observed in seroma formation between the groups. Hospital stays were shorter in the drained group than in the control group. CONCLUSION Subcutaneous drains after abdominal surgery prevented SSIs and reduced hospital stays but did not significantly affect seroma formation. The timing of drain removal needs to be reconsidered in future studies.

Abstract
We report a case in which excessive negative pressure may have been applied to the proximal side hole of a drainage cannula during venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (V-V ECMO), resulting in abnormal stenosis of the drainage cannula. V-V ECMO was introduced in a 71-year-old male patient who was transferred from another hospital for severe respiratory failure associated with varicella pneumonia and acute respiratory distress syndrome. Drainage was performed using a PCKC-V™ 24Fr (MERA, Japan) cannula via the right femoral vein with the tip of the cannula near the level of the diaphragm under fluoroscopy. Reinfusion was performed via the right internal jugular vein. Due to poor systemic oxygenation, the drainage cannula was withdrawn caudally and refixed to reduce the effect of recirculation. Two days later, drainage pressure dropped rapidly, and frequent ECMO flow interruption occurred due to poor drainage. An abdominal X-ray revealed abnormal stenosis of the proximal side hole site of the drainage cannula. We diagnosed that the drainage cannula was damaged, and it was replaced with another, namely a Medtronic Bio-Medicus™ 25 Fr (GETINGE, Sweden) cannula. However, the removed drainage cannula was not damaged, suggesting that the cannula was temporarily stenosed by momentary excessive negative pressure. In a multi-stage drainage cannula, the main drainage site is the proximal side hole, with little negative pressure applied at the apical foramen in a mock experimental ex vivo drainage test in a water tank. Hence, improvement of a multi-stage drainage cannula is recommended, such as adequate reinforcement of the side hole site with a wire.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Perioperative venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a potentially fatal complication, making preoperative VTE diagnosis and secondary thromboprophylaxis important. This study was performed to investigate the impact of promotion of a preoperative VTE protocol at a perioperative management center (PMC) on detecting the preoperative VTE rate and subsequent treatment. METHODS This retrospective study involved patients aged ≥20 years who underwent elective anesthesia. The patients were divided into two groups: the pre-PMC group (January to October 2014, before the opening of the PMC) and the post-PMC group (January to December 2019, after the opening of the PMC). The rates of preoperative lower-limb compression ultrasonography (CUS), VTE detection, anticoagulation therapy, and new postoperative pulmonary embolism (PE) were compared between the two groups. RESULTS The pre-PMC and post-PMC groups comprised 3737 and 5388 patients, respectively. The preoperative CUS and VTE detection rates were significantly higher in the post-PMC than pre-PMC group (7.2% and 1.43% vs. 25.6% and 3.93%, respectively; P<0.001). There was no significant difference in the rate of anticoagulation therapy in patients with preoperative VTE (88.9% vs. 84.7%, P=0.43). Heparin and direct oral anticoagulants were primarily used in the pre-PMC and post-PMC groups, respectively. The efficacy and safety were comparable between the two groups. No new postoperative PE was detected in either group. CONCLUSIONS Promotion of the preoperative VTE protocol led by the PMC increased the rates of preoperative CUS and preoperative VTE detection. This may aid in secondary thromboprophylaxis in the preoperative period and prevention of postoperative PE.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Our aims were to clarify the actual situation regarding preoperative fasting and determine whether multidisciplinary interventions in a perioperative management center shorten the duration of preoperative fasting. METHODS The cohort of this before-and-after study comprised patients undergoing elective surgery aged 18 years or older who underwent general anesthesia at one of three stages: after starting a short preoperative fasting protocol (Group A), after the anesthesiologist started explaining the protocol (Group B), and after the start of the perioperative management center (Group C). Instructions on drinking clear fluids were given up to 2 h and 4 h before the start of elective surgery to the first patient on the list (on-time) and to the second and subsequent patients (on-call), respectively. Data were collected retrospectively in Groups A and B and prospectively in Group C. RESULTS The study cohort comprised 89 patients in Group A (50 on-time, 39 on-call), 108 in Group B (65 on-time, 43 on-call), and 284 in Group C (182 on-time, 102 on-call). The difference between the instructed and last drinking time was significantly shorter in Group C than Group A (30 [10, 140] vs. 30 [10, 60] vs. 20 [0, 50] min, p=0.003). The duration of fasting was significantly shorter in Group C than Group B (243 [150, 395] vs. 213 [151, 323] vs. 180 [146, 280] min, p=0.01). CONCLUSIONS Multidisciplinary interventions at the perioperative management center tended to reduce the duration of fasting, suggesting that this approach may contribute to improved compliance.

Abstract
The perioperative management of patients who are smokers presents anesthesiologists with various challenges related to respiratory, circulatory, and other clinical problems. Regarding 30-day postoperative outcomes, smokers have higher risks of mortality and complications than non-smokers, including death, pneumonia, unplanned tracheal intubation, mechanical ventilation, cardiac arrest, myocardial infarction, and stroke. Given the benefits of smoking cessation and the adverse effects of smoking on perioperative patient management, patients should quit smoking long before surgery. However, anesthesiologists cannot address these issues alone. The Japanese Society of Anesthesiologists established guidelines in 2015 (published in a medical journal in 2017) to enlighten surgical staff members and patients regarding perioperative tobacco cessation. The primary objective of perioperative smoking cessation is to reduce the risks of adverse cardiovascular and respiratory events, wound infection, and other perioperative complications. Perioperative preparations constitute a powerful teachable moment, a "golden opportunity" for smoking cessation to achieve improved primary disease outcomes and prevent the occurrence of tobacco-related conditions. This review updates the aforementioned guidelines as a practical guide to cover the nuts and bolts of perioperative smoking cessation. Its goal is to assist surgeons, anesthesiologists, and other medical professionals and to increase patients' awareness of smoking risks before elective surgery.

Abstract
Anaphylactic reactions during the induction of general anaesthesia are rare. Anaesthetists should determine the pathogenesis of anaphylaxis in order to establish appropriate treatment and prevent recurrence. Very little clinical information has been published to date about anaphylaxis induced by the recently launched drug remimazolam. A 78-year-old man, scheduled for elective surgery for colon cancer, became profoundly hypotensive and hypoxic shortly following the induction of general anaesthesia with remimazolam, remifentanil and rocuronium. His physiological derangement was successfully managed with adrenaline, vasopressors and intravenous fluid resuscitation. His serum tryptase level was significantly elevated and an intradermal test with diluted remimazolam revealed a positive reaction, confirming the diagnosis of anaphylaxis. We believe this is the first case report of remimazolam-induced anaphylactic shock diagnosed with a serum tryptase elevation and positive skin test.

Abstract
Myoglobin, which can cause acute kidney injury, has a relatively high molecular weight and is poorly cleared by diffusion. We compared and examined myoglobin clearance by changing the blood purification membrane and modality in patients with a myoglobin blood concentration ≥ 1000 ng/ml. We retrospectively analyzed three patient groups based on the following three types of continuous hemofiltration (CHF): AN69ST membrane, polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) membrane, and high-flow hemodiafiltration (HDF) with increased dialysate flow rate using the PMMA membrane. There was no significant difference in clearance in CHF between AN69ST and PMMA membranes. However, the high-flow HDF group showed the highest myoglobin clearance (p = 0.003). In the PMMA membrane, changing the treatment modality to high-flow HDF increased clearance above the theoretical value, possibly due to internal filtration. To remove myoglobin by kidney replacement therapy from patients with hypermyoglobinemia, a modality such as high-flow HDF would be desirable.

Abstract
We aimed to evaluate whether cardiac output assessed by transpulmonary thermodilution during blood purification is affected by the difference between the blood return temperature and core temperature. We applied different blood return temperatures using a thermostat bath during blood purification in four pigs. After the blood return temperature stabilized and blood purification process stopped, the cardiac output assessed by transpulmonary thermodilution was measured. The thermostat bath was set at 35°C, 40°C, 45°C, and 50°C, with the order changed at random; four measurements were made at each temperature. Cardiac function was evaluated by echocardiography when ice-cold saline was administered in a pig. A decrease in the blood return temperature resulted in decreased cardiac output assessed by transpulmonary thermodilution, whereas an increase resulted in increased cardiac output assessed by transpulmonary thermodilution. Echocardiography revealed that the change in the blood return temperature did not affect the left ventricular ejection fraction.

Abstract
Tumor necrosis factor-alpha inhibitor (TNFi) treatment is effective for ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease (CD). Although several meta-analyses have been performed to evaluate the association between TNFi treatment and surgical morbidity, the results are controversial. We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of the prevention of surgical site infection (SSI) after surgery for UC and CD in patients on TNFis, based on literature published between January 2000 and May 2019 (registered on PROSPERO, No. CRD42019134156). Overall, 2175 UC patients in 13 observational studies (OBSs) and 7084 CD patients in 16 OBSs were included. The incidences of incisional (INC) SSI and organ/space (O/S) SSI after surgery for UC were 179/1985 (9.0%) and 176/2175 (8.1%), respectively. TNFi use was not associated with the incidences of INC SSI (odds ratio (OR) 1.04, 95% confidence interval (CI) (0.47-2.32) or O/S SSI (OR 1.85, 95% CI (0.82-4.20)) after surgery for UC. The INC SSI and O/S SSI incidences after surgery for CD were 289/3089 (9.4%) and 526/7,084 (7.4%), respectively. Preoperative TNFi use was not associated with INC SSI (OR 0.98, 95% CI (0.52-1.83)) or O/S SSI incidence (OR 1.09, 95% CI (0.78-1.52)) after surgery for CD. We did not find a significant association between preoperative TNFi use and SSI in surgery for UC or CD.

Abstract
Empirical antifungal therapy is recommended in high-risk patients who have persistent febrile neutropenia (FN) despite broad-spectrum antibiotic therapy. Based on high-quality evidence, most guidelines recommend caspofungin. The aim of this study was to clarify whether echinocandins, including micafungin, are associated with improved clinical outcomes in patients with persistent FN. We conducted a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of empirical therapy with echinocandins and non-echinocandins for FN in patients with hematological disease. The primary outcome was all-cause mortality within 7 days after completion of therapy. Secondary outcomes included treatment success, and discontinuation of therapy because of adverse events. For subgroup analysis, we compared RCTs of echinocandins with liposomal amphotericin B. Six RCTs (four that evaluated caspofungin and two that evaluated micafungin) were included in the meta-analysis. Mortality and adverse events in echinocandin-treated patients were significantly lower than in those treated with non-echinocandins [risk ratio (RR) 0.70, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.49-0.99; RR 0.48, 95% CI 0.33-0.71, respectively]. There was no significant difference in treatment success (RR 1.09, 95% CI 0.87-1.36). Mortality and adverse events in echinocandin-treated patients were significantly lower than in those treated with liposomal amphotericin B (RR 0.68, 95% CI 0.46-0.99; RR 0.53, 95% CI 0.37-0.74, respectively). In conclusion, patients with persistent FN treated with echinocandins had decreased risk of death and adverse events. Both caspofungin and micafungin may be recommended as first-line empirical antifungal therapy in these patients. However, the small number of enrolled patients and the lack of RCTs involving pediatric patients should be considered when using micafungin.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Renal replacement therapy (RRT) is widely used in the treatment of septic acute kidney injury. However, little is known about how the adsorption properties of hemofilters used in RRT affect antibiotic concentration. Because a cytokine-adsorption membrane is frequently used in RRT, it is important to determine the antibiotic adsorption capacity of this membrane. OBJECTIVE The present study aimed to investigate the antibiotic adsorption capacity of different hemofilter membranes by in vitro experiments using 2 antibacterial agents (linezolid and doripenem). METHODS We performed experimental hemofiltration in vitro using polyacrylonitrile (AN69ST), polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA), and polysulfone (PS) hemofilters for 1,440 min. The test solution was a 1,000-mL substitution fluid containing 30 µg/mL linezolid and 120 µg/mL doripenem. We measured drug concentrations at the inlet, outlet, and filtrate ports of the hemofilters for 1,440 min and calculated the sieving coefficient (SC) and adsorption rate (Ra) of the drugs onto the hemofilters. RESULTS The amount of linezolid adsorbed onto AN69ST, PMMA, and PS membranes was decreased relative to that in the control group at 15 min (p < 0.05). However, no SC for linezolid was obtained thereafter. The Ra of linezolid onto AN69ST, PMMA, and PS membranes was higher than that in the control group (p < 0.05). In contrast, no significant differences were observed in the concentrations and Ra values of doripenem adsorbed onto AN69ST, PMMA, and PS membranes compared with those in the control group. CONCLUSIONS Doripenem was not adsorbed onto PMMA, PS, and AN69ST membranes. Linezolid was adsorbed onto PMMA, PS, and AN69ST membranes, but only temporarily, and this did not affect drug bioavailability.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Hepatectomy is used to treat several liver diseases, although perioperative mortality and postoperative complication rates remain high. Given the lack of relevant studies to date, the present study aimed to investigate potential predictive factors for postoperative complications in patients undergoing hepatectomies lasting 12 or more hours (termed "extremely long hepatectomies"). METHODS Adult patients undergoing treatment in the intensive care unit (ICU) after extremely long hepatectomies at Fujita Health University Hospital between 2014 and 2017 were enrolled in the study. Postoperative complications were classified as "major complications" and "non-major complications" according to the Clavien-Dindo Classification grading system. We also divided our study population into "simple hepatectomy" and "non-simple hepatectomy" subgroups for further analysis. Statistical analyses were performed using the Mann-Whitney U test, chi-squared test, and multiple logistic regression analysis. RESULTS In total, 114 patients (Major Complications Group, n=44; Non-Major Complications Group, n=70) were enrolled. In the Simple Hepatectomy Group, there were no significant variables. In the Non-Simple Hepatectomy Group, female sex (odds ratio [OR], 13.4; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.00-1.81×102; p=0.04) and lactate levels at ICU admission (OR, 1.6; 95% CI, 0.99-2.59; p=0.05) were independent factors associated with major postoperative complications. CONCLUSIONS In the Simple Hepatectomy Group, there were no significant variables. In the Non-Simple Hepatectomy Group, female sex and lactate levels at ICU admission of patients who underwent extremely long hepatectomies may be independent factors associated with major postoperative complications.

OBJECTIVES Nasal high-flow (NHF) therapy provides continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP), flushes the anatomical dead space, and improves mucociliary clearance. CPAP is usually applied at a flow rate at or above an established threshold value with the mouth closed because it is hard to maintain it with an open mouth. We conducted a prospective study to validate our hypothesis that CPAP can be applied with the mouth open through a surgical face mask. METHODS We inserted 12-Fr nasogastric tubes through the noses of 18 healthy individuals and fixed each tube within the pharynx to monitor the intrapharyngeal pressure. We monitored the pressure during the following two conditions: NHF oxygen with the mouth open (condition O) and NHF oxygen with the mouth open and wearing a surgical face mask (condition OM). We set the NHF rate at 40 L/min and the oxygen concentration at 21%, under all conditions. We measured the intrapharyngeal pressure five times during each inspiration and expiration, and calculated mean values. RESULTS The mean expiratory intrapharyngeal pressure (median [interquartile range]) increased significantly from the baseline during conditions O (2.08 [1.58-4.02] cm H2O) and OM (3.35 [2.72-3.79] cm H2O). In addition, there was a significant difference in pressure between conditions O and OM (p=0.0263, Wilcoxon signed-rank test). CONCLUSIONS In our healthy volunteers, the intrapharyngeal pressures increased during expiration with an open mouth while wearing a surgical face mask.

Abstract
Background In 2013, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) issued the concept of the ventilator-associated events (VAEs) as a quality indicator (QI) in the intensive care unit (ICU). A number of studies have been conducted in the United States and other Western countries to evaluate its practicality. However, information on VAEs in non-Western countries is scarce. The purpose of this preliminary study was to illuminate the incidence and associated mortality rate of VAEs in Japan, as a first step in the effort to determine its practicality. Methods We conducted a multi-center, retrospective review of patient medical record using VAEs surveillance algorithm. We analyzed 785 patients with ≥2 days of mechanical ventilator (MV), admitted to the ICU at seven urban hospital in Japan. The prevalence of VAEs, including its three subtypes, and in-ICU mortality were researched. Results Forty-nine VAEs were identified, affecting 5.7% of patients requiring MV for ≥2 days and 6.4 per 1,000 MV days. Mortality in those who developed VAEs was 42.9%, significantly higher than the rest of the cohort (vs. 15.4%, P<0.001). The overall equivalent distribution of the three VAEs subtype incidences was evaluated: the incidences of VAC only, IVAC only and PVAP were 2.20, 1.90 and 2.29 per 1,000 MV days respectively (P=0.933). However, VAE etiology and mortality was facility dependent. ICUs with a large proportion of surgical patients and more severe cases tended to have increased VAE incidence, with a converse decrease in closed ICUs. Conclusions The prevalence of VAEs appears low in Japanese ICUs. Nonetheless, mortality was substantially higher in patients who developed VAEs. Although some potential indices of VAEs are suggested to serve as QIs, additional studies to elaborate its practicality would further be required.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Antimicrobial-coated sutures have recently become well known for preventing surgical site infections (SSIs). However, the evidence and recommendations from some organizations remain controversial. Therefore, we conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to analyze the efficacy of antimicrobial-coated sutures for preventing SSIs in digestive surgery. METHODS We performed a systematic review of literature published from 2000 to 2017 (registered on PROSPERO, No. CRD42017076780). We included studies defined as randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and observational studies (OBSs) for the prevention of SSIs and the reduction in hospital stay length associated with digestive surgery. RESULTS In the 10 RCTs, the incidence rates of incisional SSIs were 160/1798 (8.9%) with coated sutures and 205/1690 (12.1%) with non-coated sutures. Overall, antimicrobial-coated sutures were superior for reducing the incidence of incisional SSI (risk ratio (RR) 0.67, 95% confidence intervals (CI) 0.48-0.94, p = 0.02) in RCTs for digestive surgery with the mixed wound class and surgeries limited to a clean-contaminated wound (RR 0.66, 95% CI 0.44-0.98, p = 0.04). A superior effect of antimicrobial-coated sutures was found in 9 RCTs that involved only colorectal surgeries (RR 0.69, 95% CI 0.49-0.98, p = 0.04). The mean hospital stay length was similar with coated or uncoated sutures in 5 RCTs involving colorectal surgery (mean difference (MD) - 5.00, 95% CI 16.68-6.69, p = 0.4). CONCLUSION Antimicrobial-coated sutures are significantly more efficacious for preventing SSIs during digestive and colorectal surgery, even when restricted to clean-contaminated wounds. However, the hospital stay length was not affected.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Polymyxin B-immobilized fiber (PMX-F) columns are used as therapeutic interventions for septic shock. The clinical efficacy has been reported for 2-h applications, but their ability to adsorb endotoxin over longer treatments has not been fully elucidated. We hypothesized that PMX-F columns are capable of endotoxin removal for more than 2 h. METHOD We designed closed circuits incorporating either a PMX-F column with an 8.5-mL priming volume (PMX-01R) or a sham-control column, and used inactivated fetal bovine serum as the circulating perfusate. Endotoxin was continuously injected at a fixed rate for 24 h, and perfusate endotoxin concentrations were measured at fixed time points. PMX-01R endotoxin adsorption was calculated from the difference in the endotoxin concentrations. RESULTS PMX-01R endotoxin adsorption increased continuously in a virtually linear manner. CONCLUSIONS The PMX-01R column showed sustained endotoxin adsorption for at least 24 h. This indicated that PMX-F columns would be capable of clinical endotoxin removal for 24 h.

Abstract
AIM Endotracheal intubation of critically ill patients increases the risk of aspiration pneumonia, which can be reduced by regular oral care. However, the rinsing of the residual oral contaminants after mechanical cleaning carries the risk of aspirating the residue during the intubation period. Removing the contaminants by wiping with mouth wipes could be an alternative to rinsing with water because of no additional fluid. This study tested: (i) the amount of oral bacteria during endotracheal intubation and after extubation; and (ii) the changes in the bacterial count during oral care procedures. METHODS Thirty-five mechanically ventilated patients in the intensive care unit were enrolled. The amount of bacteria on the dorsal tongue surface was counted before and following oral care and then after the elimination of contaminants either by rinsing with water and suctioning or by wiping with mouth wipes. The oral bacterial amount was compared statistically between the intubation and extubation status and among set time points during the oral care procedure. RESULTS The oral bacterial count was significantly decreased after extubation. During the oral care procedure, the oral bacterial amount was significantly lower after eliminating the contaminants either by rinsing or wiping, with no remarkable difference between the elimination techniques. CONCLUSIONS The findings suggest that the oral bacterial amount is elevated during endotracheal intubation, which could increase the risk of aspiration pneumonia. The significant reduction in the bacterial count by wiping indicates that it might be a suitable alternative to rinsing for mechanically ventilated patients.

Abstract
We aimed to investigate the effects of blood purification and cold saline injection sites on the transpulmonary thermodilution values. We measured the cardiac output of eight pigs in every combination of cold saline injection (left jugular and femoral veins) and blood purification sites (right jugular and femoral veins), with or without blood purification. We examined the influence of the difference between the presence and absence of blood purification, vascular sites for blood purification, and sites for cold saline injection on the transpulmonary thermodilution values. Cardiac output measured during blood purification using transpulmonary thermodilution was underestimated; however, there was no difference between vascular sites. Cardiac output measured via injection of cold saline into the femoral vein was higher than that obtained through injection of cold saline into the jugular vein, with or without blood purification.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The Japanese Clinical Practice Guidelines for Management of Sepsis and Septic Shock 2016 (J-SSCG 2016), a Japanese-specific set of clinical practice guidelines for sepsis and septic shock created jointly by the Japanese Society of Intensive Care Medicine and the Japanese Association for Acute Medicine, was first released in February 2017 and published in the Journal of JSICM, [2017; Volume 24 (supplement 2)] 10.3918/jsicm.24S0001 and Journal of Japanese Association for Acute Medicine [2017; Volume 28, (supplement 1)] http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/jja2.2017.28.issue-S1/issuetoc.This abridged English edition of the J-SSCG 2016 was produced with permission from the Japanese Association of Acute Medicine and the Japanese Society for Intensive Care Medicine. METHODS Members of the Japanese Society of Intensive Care Medicine and the Japanese Association for Acute Medicine were selected and organized into 19 committee members and 52 working group members. The guidelines were prepared in accordance with the Medical Information Network Distribution Service (Minds) creation procedures. The Academic Guidelines Promotion Team was organized to oversee and provide academic support to the respective activities allocated to each Guideline Creation Team. To improve quality assurance and workflow transparency, a mutual peer review system was established, and discussions within each team were open to the public. Public comments were collected once after the initial formulation of a clinical question (CQ) and twice during the review of the final draft. Recommendations were determined to have been adopted after obtaining support from a two-thirds (> 66.6%) majority vote of each of the 19 committee members. RESULTS A total of 87 CQs were selected among 19 clinical areas, including pediatric topics and several other important areas not covered in the first edition of the Japanese guidelines (J-SSCG 2012). The approval rate obtained through committee voting, in addition to ratings of the strengths of the recommendation, and its supporting evidence were also added to each recommendation statement. We conducted meta-analyses for 29 CQs. Thirty-seven CQs contained recommendations in the form of an expert consensus due to insufficient evidence. No recommendations were provided for five CQs. CONCLUSIONS Based on the evidence gathered, we were able to formulate Japanese-specific clinical practice guidelines that are tailored to the Japanese context in a highly transparent manner. These guidelines can easily be used not only by specialists, but also by non-specialists, general clinicians, nurses, pharmacists, clinical engineers, and other healthcare professionals.

Abstract
Background and Purpose The Japanese Clinical Practice Guidelines for Management of Sepsis and Septic Shock 2016 (J-SSCG 2016), a Japanese-specific set of clinical practice guidelines for sepsis and septic shock created jointly by the Japanese Society of Intensive Care Medicine and the Japanese Association for Acute Medicine, was first released in February 2017 in Japanese. An English-language version of these guidelines was created based on the contents of the original Japanese-language version. Methods Members of the Japanese Society of Intensive Care Medicine and the Japanese Association for Acute Medicine were selected and organized into 19 committee members and 52 working group members. The guidelines were prepared in accordance with the Medical Information Network Distribution Service (Minds) creation procedures. The Academic Guidelines Promotion Team was organized to oversee and provide academic support to the respective activities allocated to each Guideline Creation Team. To improve quality assurance and workflow transparency, a mutual peer review system was established, and discussions within each team were open to the public. Public comments were collected once after the initial formulation of a clinical question (CQ), and twice during the review of the final draft. Recommendations were determined to have been adopted after obtaining support from a two-thirds (>66.6%) majority vote of each of the 19 committee members. Results A total of 87 CQs were selected among 19 clinical areas, including pediatric topics and several other important areas not covered in the first edition of the Japanese guidelines (J-SSCG 2012). The approval rate obtained through committee voting, in addition to ratings of the strengths of the recommendation and its supporting evidence were also added to each recommendation statement. We conducted meta-analyses for 29 CQs. Thirty seven CQs contained recommendations in the form of an expert consensus due to insufficient evidence. No recommendations were provided for 5 CQs. Conclusions Based on the evidence gathered, we were able to formulate Japanese-specific clinical practice guidelines that are tailored to the Japanese context in a highly transparent manner. These guidelines can easily be used not only by specialists, but also by non-specialists, general clinicians, nurses, pharmacists, clinical engineers, and other healthcare professionals.

Abstract
Background Extubation is a more challenging medical practice than intubation, and countermeasures against it are similar to those described in the Difficult Intubation Guidelines, but problems cannot be overcome by completely the same methods. We predicted difficult extubation in a pediatric patient with left recurrent laryngeal nerve paralysis and devised an extubation method. Case presentation The patient was a 2-year-and-8-month-old boy scheduled for cleft palate repair. Concomitant cardiac anomaly and first and second branchial arch syndrome-associated facial malformations, such as mandibular micrognathia and auricular malformation, were observed. He had a past medical history of difficult intubation and respiratory arrest on a catheter test under intravenous sedation at 4 months old. Left recurrent laryngeal nerve paralysis was discovered on preoperative examination of the cleft palate, based on which difficulty in postoperative extubation was predicted. A catheter for tracheal tube exchange proposed by the extubation guidelines of the Difficult Airway Society (DAS) was placed, endoscopic examination was performed while inducing spontaneous breathing and swallowing reflex by an otolaryngologist, and the tube was removed while movement of the tissue around the glottis was visually evaluated. The patient was managed in an ICU after extubation, and both the systemic and respiratory conditions were favorable. Conclusions Extubation and airway management could be safely performed by devising extubation while conforming to the DAS guidelines.

Abstract
Robotic-assisted laparosopic prostatectomy (RALP) is the only robotic surgical procedure covered by na- tional health insurance in Japan, and its application has been spreading rapidly. This procedure is per- formed with the patient in the steep Trendelenburg position under pneumoperitoneum, and anesthesiolo- gists have to understand the physiological influences and accompanying risks. Regarding the pulmonary function, the lung compliance and functional residual capacity decrease as the airway pressure rises. It is important to appropriately maintain the airway pres- sure and prevent barotrauma and atelectasis. It is also necessary to pay attention to the risk of subcutaneous emphysema, brachial plexus palsy, peroneal neuropa- thy, pharyngeal edema, gas embolism, and postopera- tive ischemic optic nerve disorder. To prevent opera- tive complications, such as anastomotic leak between the bladder and urethra, the restrictive fluid manage- ment until the surgeon completes the vesicourethral anastomosis is recommended. It is important to load transfusion after the completion of anastomosis and pay attention to the water balance in order to prevent postoperative acute kidney injury. For RALP, close coordination among the surgeons, anesthesiologist, and medical staffs is essential for safe perioperative man- agement.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of recombinant human-soluble thrombomodulin (rTM) on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced, platelet-dependent neutrophil extracellular trap (NET) formation (NETosis). Human peripheral blood neutrophils and platelets were co-incubated with or without LPS (0.2 μg/ml) in the presence and absence of rTM (2 μg/ml). NETosis was confirmed by immunostaining and confocal microscopy. In the absence of platelets, LPS did not induce NETosis in the neutrophils. NETosis, however, was induced by LPS when neutrophils were co-cultured with platelets (64 % of neutrophils). Notably, rTM was able to fully inhibit NETosis in neutrophils cultured with platelets and in the presence of LPS. rTM did not induce NETosis in this co-culture system (p < 0.01 versus LPS in the absence of rTM). These results show that rTM can suppress LPS-induced platelet-dependent NETosis in vitro.

Abstract
Promising results have been reported with blood purification as adjuvant treatment; however, the immunological mechanisms remain unclear. We have been developing a new blood purification system for regulating excessive immune reactions in severe sepsis and septic shock using a granulocyte adsorbing column (Adacolumn [Ada]), and a cytokine-adsorbing hemofilter (AN69ST hemofilter [AN69]). Fresh porcine blood was circulated for 6 h in five experimental groups including Ada and AN69 to assess the effects of leukocyte adsorption, phagocytic activity and adhesiveness of granulocytes. In the present study, we found that Ada mainly adsorbed granulocytes and monocytes, but not lymphocytes. The phagocytic activity level of granulocytes decreased, and adhesiveness increased, but the number of CD11b-positive cells markedly decreased in the current system. Elevated cytokine levels (IL-1β, IL-8 and IL-10) at the outlet of Ada were significantly lower than at the outlet of AN69 due to cytokine adsorption. Further studies are needed to better understand cellular interactions.

Abstract
Polymyxin B-immobilized fiber column direct hemoperfusion (PMX-DHP) therapy is widely used for the treatment of severe sepsis and septic shock, and is generally performed for 2 h. Although previous studies demonstrated the efficacy of PMX-DHP therapy, it currently remains unclear whether its optimal duration is 2 h. This retrospective study analyzed 37 patients with septic shock who showed a poor clinical response to 2 h of PMX-DHP, and underwent a longer duration of this therapy. The mean duration of PMX-DHP therapy was 15.8 ± 7.9 h, and none of the patients developed adverse events, which enabled the therapy to be performed safely. The pressure catecholamine index [CAIP = catecholamine index/mean arterial pressure; catecholamine index = dopamine + dobutamine + (adrenaline + noradrenaline) × 100 μg/kg per min], as an indicator of hemodynamics, improved significantly in the survival group in the period between the start and 24 h after the end of PMX-DHP therapy (P < 0.01), and between 2 h after the start of and the end of this therapy (P < 0.05). In addition, the P/F ratio improved significantly in the group of surviving patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) in the period between the start and 24 h after the end of PMX-DHP therapy (P < 0.01), and between 2 h after the start of and the end of this therapy (P < 0.01). These results suggest that a longer duration of PMX-DHP therapy can be expected to improve the hemodynamics and pulmonary oxygenation capacity of patients with severe sepsis/septic shock. Strict prospective studies are needed in the future.

Abstract
Tacalcitol (1,24(R)(OH)2D3, TV-02) inhibited the TPA-induced inflammatory cell infiltration (largely neutrophils) histopathologically and myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity dose-dependently. Tacalcitol inhibited the mRNA expression and protein production of TPA-induced macrophage inflammatory protein-2 (MIP-2) and KC, the functional analogue of human interleukin (IL)-8, in the skin. Immunohistochemical staining of the TPA-applied skin revealed that mast cells expressed MIP-2, whereas KC was observed in keratinocytes, fibroblasts and outer root sheath of hair follicles. Furthermore, tacalcitol inhibited TPA-induced mast cell degranulation 24 hr after application without influence on the total number of mast cells. In this study, tacalcitol was found to have an inhibitory effect on cutaneous inflammation such as inhibition of neutrophil infiltration, MIP-2 and KC production, and mast cell degranulation in TPA-treated hairless mice. These results suggest that tacalcitol modulates cutaneous inflammation as well as keratinocyte proliferation and differentiation, and the inhibitory effect of tacalcitol on cutaneous inflammation may contribute to clinical the effectiveness in the treatment of psoriasis.

Abstract
Analysis of a three-year bird survey in the pantanal of Poconé revealed that most of the resident and seasonal birds are habitat generalists, using two or more habitats. In this study, previously sampled habitats were ranked in relation to species richness and stability (as measured by the ratio of seasonal to resident species). In all, nine habitats were grouped into three categories; results are as follows: 1) forests: more species-rich and more stable; 2) cerrado: intermediate levels; and 3) aquatic: less species-rich and less stable. The number of seasonal species remained relatively constant in forests throughout the year, while increasing in the other habitats during the dry season. The abundance of resident species seems to be related to species use of multiple habitats. Although many species were found to be habitat generalists, we discuss possible consequences of habitat loss and other human impacts on efforts to conserve this important bird community.

Abstract
Pemphigus is an autoimmune mucocutaneous bullous disease characterized by autoantibodies against the cell surfaces of epidermal keratinocytes. Six cases with deposition of both IgG and IgA on keratinocyte cell surfaces have been reported in the recent literature. We provisionally termed these cases IgG/IgA pemphigus. We describe a 42-year-old Japanese woman with clinical and histopathological features resembling herpetiform pemphigus who demonstrated in vivo bound and circulating anticell surface autoantibodies of both IgG and IgA classes on immunofluorescence examination. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay using baculovirus-expressed recombinant desmoglein (Dsg) 1 and Dsg 3 showed that both IgG and IgA antibodies reacted with Dsg1. The reactivity was completely adsorbed with preincubation of serum with Dsg1 baculoprotein, further confirming the exclusive reactivity of both IgG and IgA antibodies with Dsg1. This is the second case of IgG/IgA pemphigus in which the human target antigens for both IgG and IgA antibodies have been unequivocally identified. This study provides further evidence that IgG/IgA pemphigus is a distinct disease entity.

Abstract
We have evaluated the cellular and humoral immune response to primary respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infection in young infants. Serum specimens from 65 patients <=12 months of age (39 males and 26 females, 28 cases <3 months and 37 cases > or = 3 months; median 3 3.9 months) were tested for anti-RSV IgG and IgG subclass antibodies by EIA. Flow cytometry was used to characterize cell surface markers expressed on peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) from 29 RSV-infected children. There was a low rate of seroconversion in children <3 months of age, whose acute-phase PBMC were mostly T lymphocytes (63.0 +/- 9.0%). In contrast, a higher rate of seroconversion was observed in children >3 months of age, with predominance of B lymphocytes (71.0 +/- 17.7%). Stimulation of PBMC with RSV (2 x 10(5) TCID50) for 48 h did not induce a detectable increase in intracellular cytokines and only a few showed a detectable increase in RSV-specific secreted cytokines. These data suggest that age is an important factor affecting the infants' ability to develop an immune response to RSV.

Abstract
Immunohistochemical analysis showed that sterol 14-demethylase P450 (CYP51) is expressed in mature follicles and corpus lutea of rat ovaries. In follicles, CYP51 is expressed in granulosa and theca cells but not in oocytes. The ovarian CYP51 activity of hypophysectomized rats is very low and induced by pregnant mares' serum gonadotropin (PMSG) treatment together with ovarian growth. The expression of CYP51 first increases in growing follicles and then appears in the corpus lutea after luteinization. The former event may be due to the follicular-stimulating hormone action of PMSG, and the latter may be caused by the luteinizing hormone effect of PMSG. Sterol analysis indicated that the product of the CYP51-mediated lanosterol 14-demethylation, 4,4-dimethylcholesta-8,14,24-trienol, which has been identified as a meiosis-activating steroid (MAS) in mammals [Byskov et al. (1995) Nature 374, 559-562], accumulates (about 10 pmol/mg of ovary) in mature rat ovaries, and the content is enough to activate the resumption of meiosis. These lines of evidence suggest that the expression of ovarian CYP51 is dependent on gonadotropins, and ovarian CYP51 activity is enough for accumulating MAS. Serum insulin does not affect the ovarian CYP51 level, although it is essential for hepatic CYP51 expression. These findings indicate that expression of CYP51 is regulated differently among organs.

Abstract
PURPOSE The outcome of patients who underwent radical resection of renal cell carcinoma extending into the vena cava was retrospectively analyzed, and risk factors for long-term survival were investigated. METHODS From 1983 to 1999, 33 patients who had renal cell carcinoma with inferior vena caval tumor extension underwent 34 surgical procedures. There were 27 men and six women with an average age of 60.1 years. Twenty-two cases (64.7%) were classified as stage III (T1-2 N1 M0 or T3 N0-1 M0), and 12 cases (35.3%) as stage IV (T4 or N2-3 or M1). Coexistent lung metastasis was found in seven cases (20.6%). The tumor thrombi invaded into the inferior vena cava below the hepatic hilum in 19 cases, below the orifice of hepatic veins in 12, and above the diaphragm in 3. Cardiopulmonary bypass graft was applied in 13 cases (38.2%). Inferior vena cava was reconstructed by direct suture (n = 19), polytetrafluoroethylene patch angioplasty (n = 13), or graft replacement (n = 2). RESULTS Two patients died during the early postoperative period because of retrohepatic caval injury and intraoperative pulmonary embolism. Late death occurred in 16 patients; the causes of death were tumor recurrence in 15 and acute pulmonary embolism as a result of graft thrombosis in 1. Overall 1-, 5-, and 10-year survival rates were 70%, 44%, and 26.4%, respectively. One- and 5-year survival rates were 81.3% and 52.9% for stage III and 50% and 31.2% for stage IV; a statistically significant correlation was found between surgical staging and survival (P =.049). Patients without lymph node metastasis had a significant survival advantage over those with lymph node metastasis (P =.022). There was no significant difference in survival on the basis of the presence or absence of synchronous lung metastasis (P =.291). The degree of local extension of the tumor or the level of tumor thrombus did not tend to influence survival. CONCLUSIONS Surgical prognosis in patients with renal cell carcinoma extending into the vena cava was determined by the staging of the tumor, especially lymph node status, and not by the level of tumor thrombus or the presence of concurrent lung metastasis. The use of cardiopulmonary bypass graft is recommended for the resection of tumor thrombus extending over the diaphragm.

Abstract
A retrospective review of the perioperative management of patients with cardiovascular surgical disorders and cholelithiasis was conducted, and the surgical strategies employed are discussed. Between 1988 and 1998, 18 patients having cardiovascular surgical disorders underwent cholecystectomy. These patients were divided into three groups: group I, given a one-stage operation (n = 9); group II, given a two-stage operation (n = 3); and group III, given cholecystectomy during follow-up after cardiovascular surgery (n = 6). In group I, a median laparotomy was adopted for patients with an abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) to allow both disorders to be treated through the same incision, whereas a right subcostal approach was employed to separate the incisions for patients who underwent cardiac operations. In group II, one patient underwent cholecystectomy before cardiac surgery, and two patients underwent cholecystectomy for postoperative cholecystitis after cardiovascular operations. One patient from group II and all from group III were on preoperative anticoagulant therapy, two of whom underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy. No fatal complications such as prosthetic infection, intraperitoneal hemorrhage, or cerebral attack were encountered. In conclusion, we consider that performing cholecystectomy during AAA repair may be safe and prevents the risk of postoperative cholecystitis; it is preferable to treat cholelithiasis coexisting with cardiac disorders concomitantly with or before cardiac operations; and laparoscopic cholecystectomy can be safely performed under anticoagulant therapy.

Abstract
The rupture of an aneurysm of the descending thoracic aorta into the right thoracic cavity is a comparatively rare event, and it is very difficult to establish a diagnosis immediately and rescue such patients. We describe herein the successful surgical treatment of a patient with this life-threatening emergency by initiating immediate cardiopulmonary bypass. It is mandatory to drain the right thoracic bleeding through a left thoracotomy without delay to release the tension hemothorax. Furthermore, it is necessary to evacuate the right thoracic hematoma through a right thoracotomy because complete removal o f a hugh hematoma through a left thoracotomy cannot be effectively achieved.

Abstract
A series of azolylmethyloxolane derivatives with modified sterol side-chain structures, designed as potential dual functional inhibitors of cytochrome P450 14alpha-demethylase (14DM) and delta24-sterol methyltransferase (24-SMT) based on the common characteristic features of 24-aminosterols and azole antifungal agents, were synthesized and evaluated for their antifungal activities and inhibitory activities of 14DM and 24-SMT. Among these compounds, imidazolylmethyloxolane derivatives 28a and 28b showed potent in vitro antifungal activities comparable to those of itraconazole. However, the in vitro bioactivities have not been linearly translated into in vivo protection data for some unknown reasons.
