Abstract
INTRODUCTION Children and adolescents with mature B cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (B-NHL) are treated with short-intensive chemotherapy. The burden of short-term and long-term toxicity is highly relative to its high cure rate in good-risk patients. Although the addition of rituximab to standard lymphome Malin B (LMB) chemotherapy markedly prolongs event-free survival and overall survival in high-risk patients, the benefit of rituximab in good-risk patients remains to be elucidated. This clinical trial will examine whether the addition of rituximab eliminates anthracyclines in good-risk patients without compromising treatment outcomes. METHODS AND ANALYSIS We will perform a single-arm, open-label, multicentre phase II study. Low-risk (stage I - completely resected, stage II abdominal) and intermediate-risk (stages I and II - incompletely resected; stage II - resected, other than abdominal; stage III with LDH <2× upper limit of normal) patients with newly diagnosed B-NHL are eligible. Low-risk patients receive two courses of R-COM1P (rituximab, cyclophosphamide, vincristine, methotrexate, prednisolone and intrathecal methotrexate with hydrocortisone), and intermediate-risk patients receive COP (cyclophosphamide, vincristine, prednisolone and intrathecal methotrexate with hydrocortisone) followed by two courses each of R-COM3P and R-CYM (rituximab, cytarabine, methotrexate and intrathecal methotrexate with hydrocortisone). The primary endpoint is a 3-year event-free survival rate in paediatric patients (<18 years) with intermediate-risk disease. 100 patients (10 low-risk and 90 intermediate-risk) will enrol within a 4-year enrolment period and the follow-up period will be 3 years. 108 institutions are participating as of 1 January 2024 (64 university hospitals, 29 general hospitals, 12 children's hospitals and three cancer centres). ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION This research was approved by the Certified Review Board at NHO Nagoya Medical Center (Nagoya, Japan) on 21 September 2021. Written informed consent is obtained from all patients and/or their guardians. The results of this study will be disseminated through peer-reviewed publications and conference presentations.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Control of bacterial and fungal infections is critical to improving outcomes in hematological neoplastic diseases of children and adolescents. In this study, a retrospective analysis of our previous studies on febrile neutropenia was performed to investigate bacteremia. PROCEDURE From August 2008 to December 2023, five antibiotic studies were performed for febrile and neutropenic pediatric patients who had been treated with chemotherapy, immunosuppressive therapy, or had received stem cell transplantation in the pediatric unit at Sapporo Hokuyu Hospital. The rate of positive blood culture, detected bacteria, and susceptibility of several types of antibiotics in febrile episodes were investigated. RESULTS Blood culture was positive in 133 of 1604 febrile episodes of 329 patients. Detected bacteria were Gram-positive cocci (61.2 %), Gram-negative bacilli (27.6 %), Gram-negative cocci (0.7 %), and Gram-positive bacilli (10.4 %). The incidence of bacteremia over time showed a decreasing trend with each passing year. In particular, the incidence of bacteremia was around 10 % in 2008-2013, whereas it was often below 5 % after 2020; this decrease was statistically significant. Although almost all detected bacteria and their susceptibilities to antibiotics (piperacillin/tazobactam, meropenem, ceftazidime, and cefozopran) did not change over time, all Escherichia coli detected after 2014 were extended-spectrum β-lactamase-producing bacteria.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A prospective evaluation of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) during induction therapy for acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) has not been performed. Herein, we prospectively investigated the frequency, risk factors, and outcomes of NAFLD during induction therapy in children and adolescents with B-cell precursor ALL (BCP-ALL). METHODS This study enrolled 74 newly diagnosed BCP-ALL cases aged 1 year and older who were admitted to our department between January 2011 and December 2020. Median age was 6.6 years (1.3-17.5 years). Plain computed tomography (CT) of the upper abdomen was performed before induction therapy, and on days 15 and 29 after initiation of induction therapy. Patients with a liver/spleen CT ratio <0.9 were defined as having NAFLD. RESULTS The frequency of NAFLD was 73%. Patients with NAFLD had a higher rate of hypertriglyceridemia. There was no significant difference in 5-year overall survival and event-free survival (EFS) between patients with and without NAFLD. However, after restricting the target age to 10 years and older, 5-year EFS was significantly higher in patients with NAFLD than in those without (88.5 vs. 42.9%, respectively, P = 0.037). Similarly, 5-year cumulative incidence of relapse (CIR) was significantly lower in patients with NAFLD than in those without it (5-year CIR, 6.3 vs. 57.1%, respectively, P = 0.013). CONCLUSION Patients with NAFLD exhibit better outcomes including 5-year EFS and CIR. Further studies are necessary.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is classified into two molecular subtypes according to its cell of origin: germinal center B-cell (GCB) subtype and activated B-cell/non-GCB subtype. This latter subtype shows a poorer prognosis in adults. However, in pediatric DLBCL, the prognostic impact of the subtype is yet to be clarified. OBJECTIVES This study sought to compare the prognosis between GCB and non-GCB DLBCL in a large number of cases in children and adolescents. In addition, this study intended to describe the clinical, immunohistochemical, and cytogenetic characteristics of these two molecular subtypes of DLBCL, and consider differences in the biology, frequency, and prognosis of GCB and non-GCB subtypes in pediatric versus adult DLBCL or in Japanese versus Western pediatric DLBCL patients. DESIGN/METHODS We selected mature B-cell lymphoma/leukemia patients for whom specimens had been submitted to the central pathology review in Japan between June 2005 and November 2019. We referred the past studies on Asian adult patients and Western pediatric patients to compare with our results. RESULTS Data were obtained from 199 DLBCL patients. The median age of all patients was 10 years, with 125 patients (62.8%) in the GCB group and 49 (24.6%) in the non-GCB group other than 25 cases whose immunohistochemical data were insufficient. Overall, the percentage of translocation of MYC (1.4%) and BCL6 (6.3%) was lower than in adult and Western pediatric DLBCL cases. The non-GCB group showed a significantly higher proportion of females (44.9%), a higher incidence of stage III disease (38.8%), and B-cell lymphoma 2 (BCL2)-positivity in immunohistochemistry (79.6%) compared to the GCB group; however, no BCL2 rearrangement was observed in both GCB and non-GCB groups. The prognosis did not differ significantly between the GCB and non-GCB groups. CONCLUSION This study including a large number of non-GCB patients showed the same prognosis between GCB and non-GCB groups and suggested a difference in the biology of pediatric and adolescent DLBCL compared to adult DLBCL as well as between Asian and Western DLBCL.

Abstract
One-day or two-day intervals are generally inserted into scheduled conditioning regimens for allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation, primarily due to various social circumstances, such as unexpected natural adversities, abrupt deterioration of patient health, and delays in graft source arrival. We compared the clinical outcomes of patients with interrupted conditioning with those with ordinarily scheduled conditioning. We analyzed 83 patients (children and adolescents) with oncologic disease who underwent myeloablative conditioning with total body irradiation. Overall and event-free survival were similar between the groups ( P =0.955, P =0.908, respectively). Non-relapse mortality and relapse rates were similar between the groups ( P =0.923, P =0.946, respectively). The engraftment rate was not affected by interruption ( P =1.000). In contrast, the incidence of chronic graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) was higher in the interrupted group compared with the scheduled group, although there was no statistical significance (42% vs. 19%, P =0.063). Conditioning interruption was identified to be an independent risk factor for chronic GVHD by multivariate analysis (odds ratio: 3.72; 95% CI: 1.04 to 13.3; P =0.043). In conclusion, apart from the incidence of chronic GVHD, clinical outcomes were not affected by one-day or two-day intervals during conditioning.

Abstract
Administration of mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) represents a promising therapy for steroid-resistant acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD). However, its efficacy in pediatric patients with steroid-dependent aGVHD remains unclear, given the paucity of studies performed in children. In addition, the duration between the onset of aGVHD and MSC therapy is reportedly critical; a delay in MSC administration negatively impacts overall survival and response rate. Herein, we describe a case of a 14-year-old girl with steroid-dependent aGVHD who was successfully treated with MSCs following a prolonged duration from aGVHD diagnosis. The patient was diagnosed with T-cell lymphoblastic leukemia with central nervous system involvement and underwent cord blood transplantation (CBT). She developed severe gastrointestinal aGVHD on day +14 after CBT and was treated with a steroid; however, her aGVHD was repeatedly exacerbated upon tapering the steroid, later complicated by diabetic ketoacidosis. We eventually implemented MSC therapy for steroid-dependent aGVHD on day +109 after CBT. She rapidly responded to therapy, and her aGVHD was ameliorated even with steroid tapering. This case exemplifies the potential role of MSCs in treating pediatric patients with steroid-dependent aGVHD or late aGVHD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Childhood cancer survivors are at an increased risk of impaired renal function. The aim of the present study was to assess the frequency of and risk factors for long-term renal dysfunction in patients with solid tumors using the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). METHODS We retrospectively evaluated eGFR in 52 patients with solid tumors (25 females, 27 males) who received chemotherapy and were regularly followed up in our institute. Decreased eGFR was defined as <90 ml/min/1.73 m2 . Cases under treatment and of death were excluded. RESULTS Median age at the diagnosis of the primary disease was 2.4 years (range, 0.0-23.9 years) and the median follow-up period was 98.4 months (range, 14.4-231.6 months). The mean cumulative incidence of decreased eGFR was 24.7 ± 2.2%. Multivariate analysis showed that decreased eGFR correlated with an older age at diagnosis (≥2.3 years) (hazard ratio 7.330, p = 0.018). CONCLUSION Although previous studies have indicated that the risk of long-term nephrotoxicity is higher in patients treated at a younger age, the present study showed that patients treated at an older age were at an increased risk of decreased eGFR.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Lymphocyte reconstitution after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is important for the prevention of infections, as well as for the reduction of recurrence, by its graft versus tumor effect. However, these lymphocytes may also play a role in the development of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). Few studies have investigated the association between lymphocyte reconstitution and clinical outcomes after HSCT. METHODS This issue was investigated by retrospectively analyzing pediatric patients who received their first allogeneic-HSCT using a newly developed parameter, the LD-index, which evaluates both the intensity and duration of lymphopenia. A total of 101 patients underwent allo-HSCT from April 2007 to August 2019 in our hospital. Excluding patients who died before lymphocyte recovery or underwent multiple HSCT, 78 patients were analyzed for associations between the LD-index with various factors relating to HSCT. RESULTS A significantly high association was observed between a low LD-index and the incidence of chronic GVHD (P = 0.0019). Analysis of predictive factors for chronic GVHD was carried out using univariate analysis. Lower LD-index, donor source and duration of lymphopenia were found to be significant factors associated with chronic GVHD. Multivariate analysis, however, only identified an association between a lower LD-index and an increased incidence of chronic GVHD (P = 0.00081). CONCLUSIONS Early reconstitution of lymphocytes after allo-HSCT is associated with a higher incidence of chronic GVHD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Urolithiasis is an extremely rare complication in childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), and some reports have implicated corticosteroids during chemotherapy as a risk factor for it. However, only a few reports have analyzed urinary electrolytes in this context. METHODS We retrospectively analyzed 55 patients with ALL who underwent chemotherapy between October 2007 and January 2019. Their median age was 9.3 years (range, 0.3-24.0 years) with 30 males and 25 females. Lineages were B-cell precursor ALL (BCP-ALL) in 42 patients, T-cell in nine and others in four patients. All patients received chemotherapy based on the Berlin-Frankfurt-Münster regimen. RESULTS Forty-nine out of the 55 ALL patients exhibited hypercalciuria at least once during chemotherapy. Moreover, 36 patients with BCP-ALL, who were receiving identical Berlin-Frankfurt-Münster-based regimens, exhibited significantly high urinary calcium excretion immediately following high-dose glucocorticoid administration. Among the 55 ALL patients, urolithiasis was observed in one patient, a 6-year-old boy with BCP-ALL who developed urolithiasis at reinduction chemotherapy just after cessation of high-dose dexamethasone administration. CONCLUSIONS Nearly 90% of the ALL patients studied developed hypercalciuria during chemotherapy in strong association with corticosteroid administration.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The risk factors for invasive fungal infection have gradually become evident for pediatric patients with hematological diseases. Here we analyze the efficacy of liposomal amphotericin (L-AMB) for pediatric patients with febrile neutropenia using prophylactic voriconazole (VRCZ). METHOD We administered L-AMB (2.5 mg/kg/day) in patients with febrile neutropenia who were receiving prophylactic VRCZ (10 mg/kg/day, orally) and were resistant to second-line antibiotics therapy. Thirteen patients (5 males, 8 females) with 19 febrile neutropenia episodes were targeted in this analysis. The median age of the patients was 14 years (range, 1-19 years). Eighteen out of 19 episodes occurred in patients with acute myeloid leukemia, with the remaining episode occurring in a patient with acute unclassified leukemia. RESULTS The median period from start of L-AMB administration to resolution of fever was 4 days (1-27 days). In 15 out of 19 episodes, fever resolved within 5 days from commencement of L-AMB administration. Using criteria proposed by T. J. Walsh et al., the success rate of L-AMB for febrile neutropenia was 89.5% in this study. CONCLUSIONS Although the sample size of our study was small, the extremely high efficacy of L-AMB warrants its administration in patients with febrile neutropenia who are receiving VRCZ.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The impact of paranasal sinusitis on the clinical outcome of patients with cancer remains unknown. The aim of this study was to determine whether paranasal sinusitis at the initiation of chemotherapy (SAI) affects the development of infectious complications in children and adolescents with cancer. METHODS A retrospective cohort analysis of patients aged 0-20 years with cancer who received chemotherapy was performed. SAI was defined as the presence of a fluid level or mucosal swelling or total opacity on sinus computed tomography examination before the initiation of chemotherapy. The primary outcome measures were the incidence of bacteremia, septic shock, and invasive fungal disease (IFD, including proven, probable, and possible cases). RESULTS SAI was observed in 57 (44%) of 130 enrolled patients. There were no significant differences in age, sex, and disease distribution between the patients with SAI (SAI group) and those without (non-SAI group). There was no significant difference in the 1-year cumulative incidence of bacteremia or septic shock after treatment initiation between the two groups (bacteremia, SAI group 33% vs. non-SAI group 35%, P = 0.53; septic shock, SAI group 4% vs. non-SAI group 4%, P = 0.87). The 1-year cumulative incidence of IFD was higher in the SAI group than in the non-SAI group (22% vs. 6%, P = 0.012). Cumulative incidence analysis after inverse probability of treatment weighting adjustment showed that the SAI group was more likely to develop IFD (HR: 3.5, 95% CI: 1.1-11.2, P = 0.033). CONCLUSIONS Our findings suggest that patients with SAI may be at higher risk for IFD during chemotherapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Adolescents and young adults (AYAs) with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) are more likely to have chemotherapy-related complications than children. In addition, several reports have shown that infections account for most of the therapy-related mortality during cancer treatment in AYAs. Thus, we hypothesized that chemotherapy-induced myelosuppression is more severe in AYAs than in children, and the state of neutropenia was compared between children and AYAs using the D-index, a numerical value calculated from the duration and depth of neutropenia. PROCEDURE This study retrospectively analyzed 95 patients newly diagnosed with ALL at our institution between 2007 and 2019. Of these, 81 were children (<15 years old) and 14 were AYAs (≥15 years old). The D-index and duration of neutropenia during induction chemotherapy for ALL were compared between children and AYAs. RESULTS The median D-index of children was significantly higher than that of AYAs (8187 vs 6446, respectively, P = .017). Moreover, the median duration of neutropenia was also significantly longer in children than in AYAs (24.0 days vs 11.5 days, respectively, P = .007). CONCLUSION Contrary to our expectations, myelosuppressive toxicity during induction chemotherapy for ALL was more severe in children than in AYAs.

Abstract
Although survival of children with hematological diseases and cancer has increased dramatically, febrile neutropenia (FN) is a frequently observed complication and is sometimes life-threatening in pediatric cancer patients. A prospective, randomized study was performed to clarify the usefulness of meropenem (MEPM) and piperacillin/tazobactam (PIPC/TAZ) for pediatric patients with FN. Ninety-nine patients with 394 episodes were randomly assigned to receive MEPM or PIPC/TAZ. MEPM was administered at 120 mg/kg/day as a 1-h drip infusion 3 times a day. On the other hand, PIPC/TAZ was administered at 360 mg/kg/day as a 1-h drip infusion 4 times a day. MEPM was effective in 69.5% of the 200 episodes, and PIPC/TAZ was effective in 77.2% of the 193 episodes. Compared with our previous study of MEPM 120 mg/kg/day as a 1-h drip infusion 3 times a day versus PIPC/TAZ 337.5 mg/kg/day as a 1-h drip infusion 3 times a day, the success rate of the MEPM group was not different. However, the success rate of the PIPC/TAZ group was higher than in the previous study (p = 0.001). In particular, the success rate in patients ≥ 15 years of age was improved in the PIPC/TAZ group of the present study compared with the previous study (p = 0.005).

Abstract
Conditioning regimens for stem cell transplantation (SCT) involving total body irradiation (TBI) are generally preferred over busulfan (BU)-based ones for lymphoid malignancies. However, reports of favorable results using BU against lymphomas have recently emerged. This study sought to compare the effectiveness of BU and TBI regimens for SCT against lymphomas. We retrospectively analyzed 893 lymphoma patients who underwent primary SCT in Japan between 1980 and 2015. The median age of all patients was 18 years (range, 0-30 years) with 589 males, 303 females, and 1 patient whose sex was unknown. Overall survival (OS) was not different between those receiving BU and TBI (P = 0.672). OS in patients receiving autologous SCT was significantly better with BU over TBI regimens (P = 0.038), particularly in children (0-15 years) (P = 0.024). Conversely, OS in adolescents and young adults (AYAs; 16-30 years) receiving allogeneic SCT was significantly worse with BU over TBI regimens (P = 0.035). Overall, BU regiments had comparable effectiveness to TBI conditioning regimens, and, although less effective for AYAs with allogeneic SCT, were particularly more effective than TBI regimens for children who received autologous SCT.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Despite the development of early detection methods and new antiviral drugs, cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection remains a persistent and sometimes severe complication of stem cell transplantation (SCT). CMV antigenemia has become widely used for early detection of CMV infection after SCT. PROCEDURE We retrospectively analyzed risk factors for CMV antigenemia in pediatric patients following allogeneic SCT. We analyzed 74 pediatric patients who received allogeneic SCT at Sapporo Hokuyu Hospital between April 2007 and March 2018 and were alive over three months after SCT. RESULTS Of the 74 patients, 22 (29.7%) were CMV antigenemia positive. On univariate analyses, many patients with CMV antigenemia tested positive for CMV antibody before SCT (P < 0.001), and had lower gamma globulin levels before conditioning (P = 0.014). Multivariate analysis additionally confirmed that pre-SCT CMV antibody positivity (P < 0.001) and preconditioning gamma globulin levels under 655 mg/dL (P = 0.004) were independent risk factors for post-SCT CMV antigenemia. CONCLUSIONS These results indicate the importance of assessing gamma globulin levels in pediatric patients prior to SCT.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Stem cell transplantation (SCT) outcomes have improved over the last three decades, with many patients being rescued with this treatment. However, improved outcomes have led to issues with long-term sequelae. One of these sequelae in children is renal dysfunction, an index of which is estimated using glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). PROCEDURE We retrospectively analyzed eGFR in 83 pediatric patients who received SCT. Data from all patients extended up to 12 months or more post SCT. The median follow-up time was 127.7 months (range 12.0-268.8 months). RESULTS Eighteen patients (21.7%) had low eGFR (<90 ml/min/1.73 m2 ) post SCT. Cumulative incidence of low eGFR was 25.8 ± 2.0%. Nine (10.6%) patients had a low eGFR pre-SCT. However, pre- and post-SCT incidence of low eGFR were not correlated. Meanwhile, only two patients (2.4%) exhibited severe renal dysfunction, with eGFRs < 60 ml/min/1.73 m2 . Independent risk factors for low eGFR were solid tumor and use of fludarabine. Moreover, age at SCT ≥ 7 years was also a long-term post-SCT risk factor for low eGFR in all patients. CONCLUSION Independent post-SCT long-term risk factors for low eGFR in children were solid tumor and use of fludarabine. Moreover, age at SCT ≥ 7 years was a post-SCT long-term risk factor for low eGFR across all patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND While urine flow rate ≤0.5 ml kg-1 h-1 is believed to define oliguria during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB), it is unclear whether this definition identifies risk for acute kidney injury (AKI) . The purpose of this retrospective study was to evaluate if urine flow rate during CPB is associated with AKI. METHODS Urine flow rate was calculated in 503 patients during CPB. AKI in the first 48 h after surgery was defined by the Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes classification. Adjusted risk factors associated with AKI and urine flow rate were assessed. RESULTS Patients with AKI [n=149 (29.5%)] had lower urine flow rate than those without AKI (P<0.001). The relationship between urine flow and AKI risk was non-linear, with an inflection point at 1.5 ml kg-1 h-1 Among patients with urine flow <1.5 ml kg-1 h-1, every 0.5 ml kg-1 h-1 higher urine flow reduced the adjusted risk of AKI by 26% (95% CI 13-37; P<0.001). Urine flow rate during CPB was independently associated with the risk for AKI. Age up to 80 years and preoperative diuretic use were inversely associated with urine flow rate; mean arterial pressure on CPB (when <87 mmHg) and CPB flow were positively associated with urine flow rate. CONCLUSIONS Urine flow rate during CPB <1.5 ml kg-1 h-1 identifies patients at risk for cardiac surgery-associated AKI. Careful monitoring of urine flow rate and optimizing mean arterial pressure and CPB flow might be a means to ensure renal perfusion during CPB.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Liposomal amphotericin (L-AMB) is a widely used broad-spectrum antifungal drug. Although L-AMB demonstrates better safety compared with amphotericin, renal dysfunction and hypokalemia are well-known adverse effects of L-AMB. METHOD We analyzed 56 episodes in 40 children and adolescents who received L-AMB therapy to determine risk factors of hypokalemia. RESULTS Hypokalemia (<3.0 mEq/L continuously for more than 2 episodes) was observed in 31 of 56 episodes (55.4%). The median onset of hypokalemia was at 10 days on L-AMB (range, 3-54 days), and the median cumulative dose of L-AMB at occurrence of hypokalemia was 25 mg/kg (range, 10-167.5 mg/kg). None of the patients with hypokalemia had solid tumors, and they had significantly higher estimated glomerular filtration rates than those with normokalemia (P = 0.013). Seven of 25 (28.0%) patients in the normokalemia group and 1 of 31 (3.2%) patients in the hypokalemia group had eGFRs of <90 mL/min/1.73 m(2) (P = 0.017). CONCLUSION Although the reason for the association between estimated glomerular filtration rates and hypokalemia is unclear, assessing the estimated glomerular filtration rates before L-AMB administration may predict the development of hypokalemia.

Abstract
AIM The aim of the present study was to determine if febuxostat could prevent tumor lysis syndrome (TLS) in children who received induction chemotherapy for hematologic malignancies. PATIENTS AND METHODS A retrospective analysis was performed in 45 pediatric patients with hematological malignancies who received febuxostat (10 mg daily, n=20) or allopurinol (300 mg/m2 daily, n=25) as a prophylaxis for TLS. RESULTS A significant decrease of serum uric acid (UA) level was observed in patients with febuxostat over the first 2 days (6.6±3.8 mg/dl vs. 4.5±2.8 mg/dl, p<0.001). The febuxostat group also showed significant reduction of urinary UA/creatinine ratios during the first two days of treatment (0.98±0.85 vs. 0.51±0.26, p=0.010). No significant differences were observed between febuxostat-treated and allopurinol-treated patients regarding the percent change in serum UA level. CONCLUSION Febuxostat had a notable effect in reducing serum UA level in children with hematological malignancies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although survival of children with hematological diseases and cancer has increased dramatically, life-threatening complications due to bacterial infections occur in 5-10% of febrile episodes in pediatric cancer patients. A prospective randomized study was performed to clarify the usefulness of meropenem (MEPM) and piperacillin/tazobactam (PIPC/TAZ) with or without intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) as second-line therapy for pediatric patients with febrile neutropenia (FN). PROCEDURE As first-line therapy for FN, 105 patients with 434 episodes were randomly assigned to receive MEPM or PIPC/TAZ. A total of 71 pediatric patients and 144 episodes were judged as failures and enrolled for second-line treatment. In second-line treatment, patients were randomized to a group of MEPM and PIPC/TAZ with or without IVIG. MEPM was given to patients who received PIPC/TAZ as first-line treatment, and PIPC/TAZ was given to patients who received MEPM as first-line treatment. RESULTS The total success rate of second-line therapy was 49.3%. MEPM with or without IVIG was effective in 44.3% of cases, and PIPC/TAZ with or without IVIG was effective in 55.3%; this difference was not significant. The success rate in patients with serum IgG under 1000 mg/dl was 41.3% in the MEPM or PIPC/TAZ group and 64.3% in the MEPM + IVIG or PIPC/TAZ + IVIG group (p = 0.028). CONCLUSIONS The present results suggest that PIPC/TAZ is as effective as MEPM and safe for second-line treatment of FN in pediatric patients. Furthermore, IVIG appears very effective for patients with low serum IgG levels.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This randomized prospective study was designed to assess whether piperacillin/tazobactam (PIPC/TAZ) is as effective as meropenem (MEPM) as a first-line antibiotic treatment for febrile neutropenia (FN). PROCEDURE FN episodes were randomly assigned to receive either PIPC/TAZ (337.5 mg/kg per day in three doses, 1-hr DIV, maximum 13.5 g per day) or MEPM (120 mg/kg per day in three doses, 1-hr DIV, maximum 3 g per day). Clinical responses were evaluated 120 hr after the DIV. RESULTS A total of 434 febrile episodes in 105 patients (42 females and 63 males) with a median age of 8 years (range 0-25) were included in this trial. Blood cultures were positive in 47 out of the 434 episodes (10.8%). Regarding responses to the treatment, success rates between the PIPC/TAZ and MEPM groups were similar (62.4 vs. 65.9%, P = 0.484), even if patients were restricted to those with bacteremia (26.1 vs 37.5%, P = 0.534). Mortality rates did not significantly differ between the two groups (0.8 vs. 0%, P = 0.500). CONCLUSION Both PIPC/TAZ and MEPM appeared to be equally efficacious and safe. Carbapenems are now broadly used to treat FN; however, this may increase the prevalence of drug-resistant bacteria. In this regard, the treatment using PIPC/TAZ for FN is more beneficial.

Abstract
To determine whether pretransplant PSD affects the clinical outcomes in HSCT, a retrospective cohort analysis of 73 pediatric and adolescent patients who underwent HSCT was performed. Pretransplant PSD was defined as the presence of a fluid level or mucosal swelling or total opacity on sinus X-ray or CT examination performed before HSCT. Pretransplant PSD was observed in 21 (29%) patients. The probability of 2-year OS after HSCT was 42% in patients with pretransplant PSD (PSD group), and 64% in those without (non-PSD group) (P=.012). The cumulative incidence of 2-year TRM was 48% in the PSD group, and 17% in the non-PSD group (P=.005). The cumulative incidences of pulmonary complications and respiratory failure at 2 years after HSCT were significantly higher in the PSD group (41% vs 15%, P=.022; 44% vs 14%, P=.009, respectively). PSD at the time of HSCT should be recognized as an additional potential risk factor for mortality. Further investigation is required to clarify the reasons for the present findings to improve the outcomes of patients with pretransplant PSD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Mucormycosis is one of the most refractory invasive fungal infections and often causes fatal infection in immunocompromised patients, such as those with severe diabetes mellitus and hematologic malignancies. METHODS We retrospectively evaluated the efficacy of stem cell transplantation for a pediatric patient with refractory acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who developed mucormycosis. RESULTS An 8-year-old boy with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) received chemotherapy, but relapsed 3 months after discontinuation of treatment. Subsequent chemotherapy was ineffective, and then, while in non-complete remission, he developed pulmonary and cerebral mucormycosis. On gene analysis the fungus was identified as Lichtheimia ramosa. Cord blood transplantation was conducted in combination with high-dose liposomal amphotericin B therapy. He successfully achieved complete remission without progression of mucormycosis. CONCLUSIONS Stem cell transplantation could reduce the mortality of patients with hematologic disease who develop mucormycosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pediatric patients under treatment for acute myeloid leukemia (AML) are at high risk for invasive fungal infection (IFI). We evaluated the efficacy of prophylactic administration of voriconazole (VRCZ) with two different doses. METHODS Between October 2005 and June 2011, 17 children and adolescents (aged 0-20 years) undergoing chemotherapy for AML were prophylactically administered with 5 mg/kg/d of oral VRCZ. Furthermore, 22 AML patients (aged 0-19 years) were administered 10 mg/kg/d of oral VRCZ between July 2011 and December 2014. The incidences of IFI with two different doses of VRCZ were compared. RESULTS Irrespective of the dosage of VRCZ, eight patients developed IFI. Of these eight patients, four belonged to the 5 mg/kg/d group and four to the 10 mg/kg/d group. Cumulative incidences of IFI at 180 days after the initiation of chemotherapy were not different between the 5 mg/kg/d and 10 mg/kg/d groups. The trough plasma VRCZ concentration in the 10 mg/kg/d group ranged from < 0.09 μg/mL to 2.17 μg/mL, with a median level of 0.27 μg/mL, and patients with the targeted trough concentration (1-4 μg/mL) comprised only 18.8% of the evaluable patients in this group, whereas the trough plasma VRCZ concentration of the evaluable patients in the 5 mg/kg/d group were all below the limit of sensitivity (< 0.09 μg/mL). CONCLUSION More dose escalation is required based on this study. As VRCZ concentration is considerably influenced by genetic polymorphisms and drug-drug interactions, VRCZ should be used under therapeutic drug monitoring to keep effective drug concentrations.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) is common after non-cardiac surgery, but the mechanism is unclear. We hypothesized that decrements in cognition 1 month after non-cardiac surgery would be associated with evidence of brain injury detected by elevation of plasma concentrations of S100β, neuron-specific enolase (NSE), and/or the brain-specific protein glial fibrillary acid protein (GFAP). METHODS One hundred and forty-nine patients undergoing shoulder surgery underwent neuropsychological testing before and then 1 month after surgery. Plasma was collected before and after anaesthesia. We determined the relationship between plasma biomarker concentrations and individual neuropsychological test results and a composite cognitive functioning score (mean Z-score). RESULTS POCD (≥-1.5 sd decrement in Z-score from baseline) was present in 10.1% of patients 1 month after surgery. There was a negative relationship between higher plasma GFAP concentrations and lower postoperative composite Z-scores {estimated slope=-0.14 [95% confidence interval (CI) -0.24 to -0.04], P=0.005} and change from baseline in postoperative scores on the Rey Complex Figure Test copy trial (P=0.021), delayed recall trial (P=0.010), and the Symbol Digit Modalities Test (P=0.004) after adjustment for age, sex, history of hypertension and diabetes. A similar relationship was not observed with S100β or NSE concentrations. CONCLUSIONS Decline in cognition 1 month after shoulder surgery is associated with brain cellular injury as demonstrated by elevated plasma GFAP concentrations.

Abstract
Peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL) is rare in children, and it has a poor prognosis compared with other types of lymphoma. We report the case of a 7-year-old boy with spontaneous improvement of PTCL complicated by hemophagocytic syndrome as the initial symptom. He complained of pain and swelling of the right neck and presented with high fever. Pancytopenia, liver dysfunction, elevated ferritin and soluble interleukin 2 receptor were noted on laboratory tests. Peripheral blood plasma and white blood cells were positive for Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) genome but, after several days, the fever abated and laboratory data improved. On histopathology of lymph node biopsy, he was diagnosed as having PTCL not otherwise specified (PTCL-NOS) with EBV infection. He received no chemotherapy and was disease free at the last follow up, 6 years 8 months after onset. This is probably the first case of spontaneous improvement in PTCL-NOS. Careful treatment planning is therefore necessary in PTCL-NOS, given the possibility of spontaneous improvement of symptoms.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Mean arterial pressure (MAP) below the lower limit of cerebral autoregulation during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) is associated with complications after cardiac surgery. However, simply raising empiric MAP targets during CPB might result in MAP above the upper limit of autoregulation (ULA), causing cerebral hyperperfusion in some patients and predisposing them to cerebral dysfunction after surgery. We hypothesized that MAP above an ULA during CPB is associated with postoperative delirium. METHODS Autoregulation during CPB was monitored continuously in 491 patients with the cerebral oximetry index (COx) in this prospective observational study. COx represents Pearson's correlation coefficient between low-frequency changes in regional cerebral oxygen saturation (measured with near-infrared spectroscopy) and MAP. Delirium was defined throughout the postoperative hospitalization based on clinical detection with prospectively defined methods. RESULTS Delirium was observed in 45 (9.2%) patients. Mechanical ventilation for >48 h [odds ratio (OR), 3.94; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.72-9.03], preoperative antidepressant use (OR, 3.0; 95% CI, 1.29-6.96), prior stroke (OR, 2.79; 95% CI, 1.12-6.96), congestive heart failure (OR, 2.68; 95% CI, 1.28-5.62), the product of the magnitude and duration of MAP above an ULA (mm Hg h; OR, 1.09; 95% CI, 1.03-1.15), and age (per year of age; OR, 1.01; 95% CI, 1.01-1.07) were independently associated with postoperative delirium. CONCLUSIONS Excursions of MAP above the upper limit of cerebral autoregulation during CPB are associated with risk for delirium. Optimizing MAP during CPB to remain within the cerebral autoregulation range might reduce risk of delirium. CLINICAL TRIAL REGISTRATION clinicaltrials.gov NCT00769691 and NCT00981474.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Stat3 is a member of the Janus-activated kinase/STAT signalling pathway. It normally resides in the cytoplasm and can be activated through phosphorylation. Activated Stat3 (p-Stat3) translocates to the nucleus to activate the transcription of several molecules involved in cell survival and proliferation. The constitutive activation of Stat3 has been shown in various types of malignancies, and its expression has been reported to indicate a poor prognosis. However, the correlation between the constitutive activation of Stat3 and the prognosis of cervical cancer patients has not been reported. METHODS The immunohistochemical analysis of p-Stat3 expression was performed on tissues from 125 cervical squamous-cell carcinoma patients who underwent extended hysterectomy and pelvic lymphadenectomy, and the association of p-Stat3 expression with several clinicopathological factors and survival was investigated. RESULTS Positive p-Stat3 expression was observed in 71 of 125 (56.8%) cases and was significantly correlated with lymph node metastasis, lymph vascular space invasion, and large tumour diameter (>4 cm) by Fisher's exact test. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed that p-Stat3 expression was statistically indicative of a poor prognosis for overall survival (P=0.006) and disease-free survival (P=0.010) by log-rank test. CONCLUSION These data showed that p-Stat3 expression in cervical cancer acts as a predictor of poor prognosis.

Abstract
Patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer invading a chest wall are surgical candidates if complete resection is possible. When a primary tumor locating the lower lobe invades an inferior chest wall, either a wide skin incision or double skin incisions to secure surgical views both for dissection of hilum and mediastinum and for inferior chest wall resection is necessary. Wider incision causes higher rate of wound necrosis and infection. We describe a combined approach of thoracoscopic and open chest surgery for lobectomy and inferior chest wall resection, respectively. Patient was a 68-year-old man with an advanced non-small cell lung cancer. Video-assisted thoracoscopic middle and lower lobectomies and mediastinal nodal dissection was completed via 5 ports. Chest wall resection including the posterior portion of the 9th and 10th ribs and the transverse process followed inferior postero-lateral thoracotomy. Postoperative course was uneventful. The present surgical approach can avoid a wide thoracotomy for an advanced lung cancer invading an inferior chest wall.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aims of this study were to elucidate the clinical course of fetal bradycardia with 1 : 1 atrioventricular conduction, and to discuss the optimal management of affected fetuses in the second and third trimesters of pregnancy. METHODS The hospital records of five fetuses with the diagnosis of bradycardia (100 bpm) with 1 : 1 atrioventricular conduction between 1981 and 2000 in our institution were reviewed. Atrioventricular conduction was evaluated by simultaneous M-mode echocardiographic tracing of the atria and the ventricles. RESULTS The gestational ages at referral ranged from 19 to 36 (median, 25) weeks, and fetal heart rates ranged from 60 to 80 (median, 80) bpm. Postnatal electrocardiography revealed sinus bradycardia in four (two of which were siblings) of the five cases, and junctional rhythm in the remaining case. Two fetuses with congenital heart defects (CHDs) were delivered by Cesarean section but died postnatally. The three fetuses without CHDs were delivered vaginally and have survived to date for 6, 8 and 15 years. CONCLUSIONS Fetal bradycardia with 1 : 1 atrioventricular conduction caused by sustained sinus bradycardia or wandering pacemaker is an important type of fetal arrhythmia. Further investigations with a larger number of cases are required to determine the risk factors for predicting the outcome of affected fetuses.

Abstract
A 5-year-old boy with a peculiar type of post-encephalitic/encephalopathic epilepsy is reported. He had been healthy showing normal development before its onset. Five days after the onset of an upper respiratory infection, he had a severe generalized seizure, that evolved into intractable seizures. They were highly resistant to almost all anticonvulsants and occasionally resulted in status epilepticus. High-dose phenobarbital therapy successfully controlled the convulsions, but was discontinued because of drug-induced aplastic anemia. Alternative bromide therapy was markedly effective in controlling the seizures.

Abstract
We present our clinical findings of laparoscopic nephropexy performed on a 32-year-old woman with symptomatic nephroptosis. Supine and erect excretory urography (DIP) revealed right renal descent of 2.5 vertebral bodies with hydronephrosis. Laparoscopic transperitoneal nephropexy was performed using nonabsorbable sutures, polyglactin net, hernial staplers and tissue adhesive. An upright DIP 1 month postoperatively revealed renal descent of only 1 vertebral body and no hydronephrosis. One year postoperatively, the patient is asymptomatic. A laparoscopic procedure, which is safe, effective and causes minimal morbidity, represents an excellent approach for repair of symptomatic nephroptosis.

Abstract
A case of granulomatous nephritis after intrarenal bacille Calmette-Guérin (BCG) therapy is reported. High fever greater than 38.5 degrees C lasted for 1 month, without response to conservative therapy. Standard nephroureterectomy was subsequently carried out. Histopathologic findings from the surgical specimen were compatible with BCG-induced granulomatous nephritis. The use of a syringe pump for retrograde instillation of BCG was thought to be the major cause of this severe complication.
