Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS There is no consensus on the effectiveness of prophylactic clipping after colonic cold snare polypectomy (CSP). This study aimed to evaluate the utility of prophylactic clipping in preventing delayed bleeding (DB) after colorectal CSP in patients on antithrombotic agents. METHODS We retrospectively recruited consecutive patients on antithrombotic agents who underwent colorectal CSP in Chiba University Hospital. The DB rate was compared between patients with and without prophylactic clipping. RESULTS The study included 133 patients (422 polyps) requiring prophylactic clipping and 85 patients (282 polyps) not requiring prophylactic clipping. There were no significant differences in DB and hematochezia rates between the groups. By weighted logistic regression analysis, the odds ratio of hematochezia was 0.557 (95% confidence interval, 0.225-1.378; P = .205) in patients without clipping compared to those with clipping. CONCLUSIONS Prophylactic clipping may not be necessary to prevent DB after colorectal CSP in patients on antithrombotic agents.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Vonoprazan, a potassium-competitive acid blocker, demonstrates more potent acid inhibition than proton pump inhibitors (PPIs). This study aimed to evaluate the effect of vonoprazan in patients with unproven gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) by comparing patients with vonoprazan-refractory heartburn with those with PPI-refractory heartburn. METHODS This study included 104 consecutive patients with vonoprazan- or PPI-refractory heartburn (52 patients each), no erosive esophagitis on endoscopy and who underwent combined multichannel intraluminal impedance-pH (MII-pH) testing with vonoprazan/PPI discontinuation. Patients' backgrounds, symptom scores from four questionnaires, MII-pH results and high-resolution manometry results were compared between the two groups. RESULTS The vonoprazan group demonstrated significantly higher GERD symptoms and scores of abdominal pain and diarrhea on the Gastrointestinal Symptom Rating Scale questionnaire. MII-pH results revealed that the vonoprazan group demonstrated 40.4%, 17.3%, and 42.3% and the PPIs group exhibited 26.9%, 17.3%, and 55.8% of abnormal acid reflux [true non-erosive reflux disease (NERD)], reflux hypersensitivity and functional heartburn, respectively. The vonoprazan group demonstrated higher true NERD rates but with no significant difference (p = 0.307). Among the vonoprazan group, eight patients with true NERD underwent another MII-pH test on vonoprazan, and all cases demonstrated normal acid exposure times (0.0% [0.0-0.3]). CONCLUSION Patients with unproven GERD with vonoprazan-refractory heartburn demonstrated more symptoms, including not only GERD symptoms but also functional dyspepsia and irritable bowel syndrome symptoms, than those with PPI-refractory heartburn.

Abstract
BACKGROUND During systemic therapy, the management of portal hypertension (PH)-related complications is vital. This study aimed to clarify factors associated with the incidence and exacerbation of PH-related complications, including the usefulness of contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CECT) in the management of PH-related complications during systemic therapy. METHODS A total of 669 patients who received systemic therapy as first-line treatment (443 patients for sorafenib, 131 for lenvatinib, and 90 for atezolizumab/bevacizumab [ATZ/BEV]) were enrolled in this retrospective study. Additionally, the lower esophageal intramural vessel diameters (EIV) on CECT and endoscopic findings in 358 patients were compared. RESULTS The cutoff values of the EIV diameter on CECT were 3.1 mm for small, 5.1 mm for medium, and 7.6 mm for large varices, demonstrating high concordance with the endoscopic findings. esophageal varices (EV) bleeding predictors include EIV ≥ 3.1 mm and portal vein tumor thrombosis (PVTT). In patients without EV before systemic therapy, factors associated with EV exacerbation after 3 months were EIV ≥ 1.9 mm and ATZ/BEV use. Predictors of hepatic encephalopathy (HE) include the ammonia level or portosystemic shunt diameter ≥ 6.8 mm. The incidence of HE within 2 weeks was significantly higher (18%) in patients with an ammonia level ≥ 73 μmol/L and a portosystemic shunt ≥ 6.8 mm. The exacerbating factors for ascites after 3 months were PVTT and low albumin levels. CONCLUSIONS Careful management is warranted for patients with risk factors for exacerbation of PH-related complications; moreover, the effective use of CECT is clinically important.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Delayed bleeding (DB) is a major adverse event associated with colorectal endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) that sometimes causes difficulties in making decisions regarding endoscopic hemostasis. This study identified the factors that contribute to follow-up without endoscopic hemostasis when DB is suspected after colorectal ESD. METHODS In total, 583 patients (603 tumors) who underwent ESD or hybrid ESD for colorectal tumors at Chiba University Hospital between June 2009 and January 2022 were retrospectively registered. Of these, 141 cases (141 tumors) with DB; with hematochezia or hemoglobin decrease ≥2 g/dL after colorectal ESD were analyzed. The DB group was divided into the Hemostasis group (H group; endoscopic hemostasis performed) and no-Hemostasis group (no-H group; no endoscopy performed, or endoscopy performed but no hemostasis performed after hematochezia or hemoglobin decrease). Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed to assess the factors contributing to follow-up. RESULTS Thirty-one patients with 31 tumors were categorized into the H group, while 110 patients with 110 tumors were in the no-H group. Multivariate regression analysis revealed that date from ESD to first hematochezia ≤Day 3 (odds ratio [OR] 4.55, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.44-14.33; p = 0.010) and bleeding duration ≤1 day (OR 3.35, 95% CI 1.35-8.34; p = 0.009) contributed to follow-up. CONCLUSIONS In cases of DB after colorectal ESD, a bleeding duration ≤1 day or date from ESD to first hematochezia ≤Day 3 may contribute to follow-up observation without endoscopic hemostasis.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Clinically significant cytomegalovirus infection (csCMVi) is frequently observed after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) and prophylaxis with letermovir is commonly adopted. However, the clinical benefit of letermovir prophylaxis according to graft sources has not been sufficiently elucidated. We retrospectively analyzed 2194 recipients of HSCT who were CMV-seropositive (236 with letermovir prophylaxis and 1958 without prophylaxis against CMV). csCMVi was significantly less frequent in patients with letermovir prophylaxis than in those without (23.7% vs 58.7% at 100 days after HSCT, P < .001) and the same trend was seen when recipients of bone marrow (BM), peripheral blood stem cell (PBSC), or cord blood (CB) transplantation were separately analyzed. In recipients of BM, nonrelapse mortality (NRM) was significantly lower in the letermovir group at 6 months after HSCT (5.0% vs 14.9%, P = .018), and the same trend was observed in recipients of PBSCs (14.7% vs 24.8%, P = .062); however, there was no statistical significance at 1 year (BM, 21.1% vs 30.4%, P = .67; PBSCs, 21.2% vs 30.4%, P = .096). In contrast, NRM was comparable between recipients of CB with and without letermovir prophylaxis throughout the clinical course (6 months, 23.6% vs 24.3%, P =.92; 1 year, 29.3% vs 31.0%, P = .77), which was confirmed by multivariate analyses. In conclusion, the impact of letermovir prophylaxis on NRM and csCMVi should be separately considered according to graft sources.

Abstract
BACKGROUND s: Factors affecting mucosal permeability (MP) in ulcerative colitis (UC) are largely unknown. We aimed to investigate the difference in MP among patients with UC classified according to the colonic locations and to evaluate the correlations between local MP and endoscopic or histological activity of UC. METHODS The transepithelial electrical resistance (TER), which is inversely proportional to permeability, of tissue samples from the mucosa of the ascending colon, descending colon, and rectum of patients with UC and healthy individuals (HI) was measured by using the Ussing chamber. TERs were compared between patients with UC and HI, and evaluated according to colonic locations and disease activity of UC. RESULTS Thirty-eight patients with UC and 12 HI were included in this study. Both in HI and patients with UC, MP tends to be higher in the anal side. TER in the ascending colon was significantly lower in patients with UC than in HI (45.3 ± 9.0 Ω × cm2 vs. 53.5 ± 9.7 Ω × cm2, p = 0.01). The increased permeability in UC was observed also in the descending colon, only when the inflammation involved the location. A significant correlation between TER and endoscopic activity was found in the rectum only (r = -0.49, p = 0.002). There were no significant correlations between TERs and UC histology. CONCLUSIONS The MP in the colon differs according to the colonic location. The ascending colon among patients with UC showed disease-specific changes in MP, whereas the MP is increased in proportion to the endoscopic activity in the rectum.

Abstract
This study aimed to investigate the lesion and endoscopist factors associated with unintentional endoscopic piecemeal mucosal resection (uniEPMR) of colorectal lesions ≥ 10 mm. uniEPMR was defined from the medical record as anything other than a preoperatively planned EPMR. Factors leading to uniEPMR were identified by retrospective univariate and multivariate analyses of lesions ≥ 10 mm (adenoma including sessile serrated lesion and carcinoma) that were treated with endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) at three hospitals. Additionally, a questionnaire survey was conducted to determine the number of cases treated by each endoscopist. A learning curve (LC) was created for each lesion size based on the number of experienced cases and the percentage of uniEPMR. Of 2557 lesions, 327 lesions underwent uniEPMR. The recurrence rate of uniEPMR was 2.8%. Multivariate analysis showed that lesion diameter ≥ 30 mm (odds ratio 11.83, 95% confidence interval 6.80-20.60, p < 0.0001) was the most associated risk factor leading to uniEPMR. In the LC analysis, the proportion of uniEPMR decreased for lesion sizes of 10-19 mm until 160 cases. The proportion of uniEPMR decreased with the number of experienced cases in the 20-29 mm range, while there was no correlation between the number of experienced cases and the proportion of uniEPMR ≥ 30 mm. These results suggest that 160 cases seem to be the minimum number of cases needed to be proficient in en bloc EMR. Additionally, while lesion sizes of 10-29 mm are considered suitable for EMR, lesion sizes ≥ 30 mm are not applicable for en bloc EMR from the perspective of both lesion and endoscopist factors.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Many patients have endoscopic evidence of recurrent Crohn's disease [CD] at 1 year after intestinal resection. These lesions predict future clinical recurrence. We endoscopically evaluated postoperative anastomotic lesions in CD patients from a large cohort of postoperative CD patients. METHODS We retrospectively enrolled CD patients who underwent surgical resection between 2008 and 2013 at 19 inflammatory bowel disease [IBD]-specialist institutions. The initial analyses included patients who underwent ileocolonoscopy ~1 year after intestinal resection. Follow-up analyses assessed any changes in the endoscopic findings over time. We evaluated the postoperative endoscopic findings, which were classified into four categories [no lesion, mild, intermediate, severe] at the sites of the anastomotic line and peri-anastomosis. RESULTS In total, 267 CD patients underwent postoperative ileocolonoscopy. Postoperative anastomotic lesions were widely detected in index ileocolonoscopy [61.0%] and were more frequently detected in follow-up ileocolonoscopy [74.9%]. Endoscopic severity also increased. Patients with intermediate or severe peri-anastomotic or anastomotic line lesions at the index ileocolonoscopy required significantly more interventions, including endoscopic dilatation or surgery, than patients with mild lesions or no lesions. CONCLUSIONS Frequent anastomotic lesions were observed at the postoperative index ileocolonoscopy. These gradually increased for subsequent ileocolonoscopy, even in the biologic era. Regarding lesions on the anastomotic line, intermediate lesions on the anastomotic line [e.g. irregular or deep ulcers] might be considered recurrent disease, and mild lesions [e.g. linear superficial ulcers] might be considered non-recurrent disease. Prospective studies are needed to resolve this issue, including treatment enhancement.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cabozantinib was found to be effective as a second- or third-line treatment after sorafenib in patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in the phase 3 CELESTIAL trial. So far, as immunotherapy has substituted molecular target agents as the primary systemic therapy for advanced HCC, cabozantinib is extensively used in the latest real-world clinical practice in a greatly different position than that shown by the CELESTIAL trial. In the current analysis, we examined the safety and effectiveness of cabozantinib administration in real-life settings for patients with advanced HCC. METHODS We retrospectively obtained data from patients with advanced HCC who received cabozantinib in three institutions in Japan between 14 September 2018 and 30 November 2021. RESULTS During the study period, 23 patients with advanced HCC received cabozantinib. Our cohort included 21.7% of patients with Child-Pugh class B, and 52.2% of patients in fourth line or later. The median progression-free survival of patients given cabozantinib was 3.7 months. Regarding patients with Child-Pugh class B or administration in fourth line or later, the discontinuation rate due to adverse events in patients who initialized at 40 or 20 mg was lower than those who initialized at 60 mg (42.9% versus 75.0%). Patients who were able to continue treatment with cabozantinib for more than 3 months were more likely to undergo dose reduction than those who did not (85.7% versus 25.0%). CONCLUSIONS Cabozantinib has recently been administered to a diverse range of patients, including those who were not enrolled in the CELESTIAL trial. Deliberate dose reduction could potentially offer clinical benefits to patients with impaired liver function. Furthermore, managing adverse events by reducing the dose could play a crucial role in extending the duration of treatment with cabozantinib.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Unfractionated heparin (UFH) is primarily monitored using activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT). However, the recent introduction of anti-activated factor X (anti-Xa) activity testing has provided a direct evaluation of Xa inhibition by anticoagulants. This study aimed to investigate discrepancies between APTT and anti-Xa activity during UFH monitoring in critically ill patients and explore their underlying causes. METHODS This study analyzed 271 pairs of laboratory test results from blood samples of 99 critically ill patients receiving continuous intravenous UFH. Theoretical APTT values were calculated using fitted curve equations from spiked sample measurements with anti-Xa activity. Samples were categorized into three groups based on the measurement of the APTT/theoretical APTT ratio: the lower group (< 80%), the concordant group (80-120%), and the upper group (> 120%). RESULTS The overall concordance rate between APTT and anti-Xa activity was 45%, with a 55% discrepancy rate. The lower group frequently showed apparent heparin overdoses, while coagulation factor activities in the lower and upper groups were higher and lower, respectively, than those in the concordant group. Particularly, the lower group exhibited higher factor VIII activity levels than the upper and concordant groups. CONCLUSIONS Discrepancies between APTT and anti-Xa activity were frequently observed, influenced by changes in coagulation factors activity levels. The lower and upper groups were classified as pseudo-heparin-resistant and coagulopathy types, respectively. Accurate monitoring of heparin in critically ill patients is crucial, especially in cases of pseudo-heparin resistance, where APTT values may wrongly indicate inadequate heparin dosing despite sufficient anti-Xa activity. Understanding these discrepancies is important for managing heparin therapy in critically ill patients. TRIAL REGISTRATION Not applicable.

Abstract
The mechanism of metachronous recurrence (MR) after performing endoscopic treatment for early gastric adenocarcinoma (GAC) and eradicating Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is unknown. To elucidate the mechanism and risk factors of MR, we analyzed gene expression at multiple locations of the gastric mucosa. We selected each five patients with MR and without MR (control), after early GAC treatment and eradication of H. pylori. Mucosal tissue was collected from four sites in the stomach of each patient as biopsy specimens for mRNA sequencing, gene set enrichment analysis, and microRNA (miRNA) sequencing. We also performed correlation analysis and target prediction on pathways. As a result, endoscopically, the MR group had more intestinal metaplasia and enlarged folds. A total of 384 mRNAs presented changes in expression and 31 gene sets were enriched in the MR group. Immune-related pathways were enriched in the entire stomach, and the IFN-α response had the highest enrichment score. Additionally, 32 miRNAs revealed changes in their expression. Correlation analysis and target prediction with genes in the gene set of IFN-α response revealed that 10 miRNA-mRNA pairs presented a significant correlation. Immune-related pathways with miRNAs in the gastric mucosa after H. pylori eradication may be a risk factor for MR.

Abstract
Objective Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) is a malignant hematological disorder, and allogeneic stem cell transplantation (allo-SCT) was its only curative treatment until the introduction of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs). Allo-SCT is still considered for CML patients who are resistant to TKIs and in an advanced phase. Currently, second- and third-generation (2/3 G) TKIs are typically incorporated into the first-line treatment of CML. However, the impact of 2/3 G TKIs on subsequent allo-SCT remains unclear. We therefore evaluated the effect of 2/3 G TKIs on allo-SCT. Methods We retrospectively evaluated the effect of pretransplant therapy with TKIs on the outcome of allo-SCT for CML using clinical data at our institution. Patients or Materials Thirty-two CML patients who received their first allo-SCT procedure at our institute from 2001 to 2020 were included. We divided the patients into three subgroups based on TKI treatment before allo-SCT. Patients receiving no TKIs, only imatinib (IM), and 2/3 G TKIs were classified into the Non-TKI, IM, and 2/3 G TKI groups, respectively. Results In a univariate analysis, the pretransplant use of 2/3 G TKIs was significantly associated with a higher 5-year overall survival (91.7%) and relapse-free survival (75.0%) than the use of IM (37.5% and 12.5%) in patients presenting with or progressing to the advanced phase. In addition, pretransplant use of 2/3 G TKIs did not increase the incidence of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). Conclusions We demonstrated that the pretransplant use of 2/3 G TKIs was safe and improved the outcome of CML patients who presented with or progressed to the advanced phase without increasing the frequency of GVHD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS This randomized controlled trial (RCT) was designed to evaluate the short-term outcomes of underwater endoscopic mucosal resection (UEMR) and endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) of 21-30 mm colonic polyps. METHOD We conducted a single-center RCT. Patients diagnosed with suspected colorectal intramucosal carcinoma (21-30 mm and adaptable for both UEMR and ESD) were randomly assigned to the UEMR and ESD groups at a 1:1 ratio. The primary endpoint was the R0 resection rate. We independently performed one-sample tests against the set threshold for each treatment. The significance level was set at p = 0.224. RESULT Eleven polyps each in the UEMR and ESD groups, respectively, were analyzed. The R0 resection rate (%) was 36 (95% confidence interval 11-69) and 100 (72-100) for UEMR and ESD, respectively, with a significant difference between the two groups (p = 0.002). The p-value against the set threshold for UEMR was 0.743, whereas that for ESD was < 0.001 (one-sample binomial test). The en bloc resection rates (%) were 82 (48-97) and 100 (72-100) for UEMR and ESD, respectively; however, no significant difference was observed (p = 0.167). The mean treatment time (min) was significantly shorter in the UEMR group (8 ± 6) than in the ESD group (48 ± 29) (p = 0.001). CONCLUSION ESD could achieve a high R0 resection rate, while the en bloc resection rate was comparable between the two treatment techniques with less burden on patients undergoing UEMR for 21-30-mm colorectal polyps. CLINICAL TRIAL REGISTRATION The study was registered at the Japan Registry of Clinical Trial as jRCT1030210015 and jRCT1030210177.

Abstract
The optimal bridge strategy at the decision for allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) in patients with myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) is unclear. We performed a prospective observational study in which 110 patients with MDS who were decided to undergo HSCT were enrolled. Among these 110 patients, 77 patients were enrolled in this study within 1 month from the decision for HSCT. Among these 77 patients, 13 patients had a human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-matched sibling, 54 patients started an unrelated donor search, and the other 10 patients directly selected cord blood (CB) at the decision for HSCT, and 13 (100%), 38 (70.4%), and 9 (90%) patients actually underwent HSCT within 1 year, respectively. The overall survival (OS) at 1 year from their enrollment was 70.9%, and the selection of azacitidine use at the decision for HSCT was not associated with OS. Among 60 of the 77 patients who actually underwent HSCT within a year from their enrollment, a lower relapse rate after HSCT was observed in those who selected CB at the decision to undergo HSCT. However, this preferable effect of CB selection disappeared when patients who were enrolled in this study in > 1 month from the decision for HSCT were additionally included in the analyses. In conclusion, the selection of bridge strategy at the decision for HSCT did not affect outcomes in patients with MDS. The immediate performance of HSCT may be associated with better outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM Little is known about genetic mutations in the regenerated mucosa (RM) after endoscopic resection (ER) of esophageal carcinoma. Thus, this study investigates the status of genetic variation in RM after ER of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). METHODS The study cohort included 19 patients with ESCC. We used an esophageal carcinoma panel to identify target sequences for squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), background mucosa (BM), and RM after ER of ESCC. We used OncoKB to check whether each mutation was a putative driver. RESULTS We identified 77 mutations of 32 genes in SCC, 133 mutations of 34 genes in BM, and 100 mutations of 29 genes in RM. Putative driver mutations were identified in 20 mutations in 14 cases in SCC, 16 mutations in 10 cases in BM, and 7 mutations in 11 cases in RM. The rate of putative driver mutations to total mutations was significantly lower in RM (26% in SCC vs 12% in BM vs 7% in RM, P = 0.009). Additionally, the rate of cases with TP53 putative driver mutations was significantly lower in RM (63% in SCC vs 37% in BM vs 16% in RM, P = 0.011). The percentage of putative driver mutations and the percentage of cases with a putative driver of TP53 were significantly lower in RM. CONCLUSION Esophageal RM after ER of ESCC could have a lower risk of carcinogenesis.

Abstract
The pathogenesis of acute liver failure (ALF) involves cell death. Necroptosis is a newly suggested programmed cell death, and receptor-interacting protein kinase 3 (RIPK3) has been reported as a marker for necroptosis. However, there are few reports on necroptosis in ALF. Therefore, we evaluated the role of cell death markers such as cytokeratin (CK) 18, cleaved CK (cCK) 18, and RIPK3 in ALF, as well as cytokines and hepatocyte growth factor (HGF). Seventy-one hospitalized patients with acute liver injury (38 nonsevere hepatitis [non-SH]/22 severe hepatitis [SH]/11 ALF) were studied. No significant difference was found for cytokines, but a substantial increase in HGF levels was found following the severity of hepatitis. The non-SH group had lower levels of CK18 and cCK18 than the SH/ALF group. RIPK3 was significantly lower in the non-SH/SH group than in the ALF group. HGF, RIPK3, and albumin levels were found to be important predictive variables. The present study suggests that cCK18, CK18, and RIPK3 are associated with the severity of hepatitis. RIPK3 and other markers related cell death may be useful for understanding the pathogenesis of ALF and as a prognostic marker of acute liver injury.

Abstract
Many molecular targeted agents, including biologics, have emerged for inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD), but their high prices have prevented their widespread use. This study aimed to reveal the changes in patient characteristics and the therapeutic strategies of IBD before and after the implementation of biologics in Japan, where the unique health insurance system allows patients with IBD and physicians to select drugs with minimum patient expenses. The analysis was performed using a prospective cohort, including IBD expert and nonexpert hospitals in Japan. In this study, patients were classified into two groups according to the year of diagnosis based on infliximab implementation as the prebiologic and biologic era groups. The characteristics of therapeutic strategies in both groups were evaluated using association analysis. This study analyzed 542 ulcerative colitis (UC) and 186 Crohn's disease (CD). The biologic era included 53.3% of patients with UC and 76.2% with CD, respectively. The age of UC (33.9 years vs. 38.8 years, P < 0.001) or CD diagnosis (24.3 years vs. 31.9 years, P < 0.001) was significantly higher in the biologic era group. The association analysis of patients with multiple drug usage histories revealed that patients in the prebiologic era group selected anti-tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α agents, whereas those in the biologic era group preferred biologic agents with different mechanisms other than anti-TNF-α. In conclusion, this study demonstrated that both patient characteristics and treatment preferences in IBD have changed before and after biologic implementation.

Abstract
The effect of the combination of atezolizumab and bevacizumab (Atez/Bev) for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) on pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is unknown. Estimation of PAH by using computed tomography (CT) has recently been proposed. Thus, we aimed to estimate the effect of Atez/Bev on PAH using CT. Altogether, 113 patients who received Atez/Bev for HCC were enrolled. Probable PAH was defined as the diameter of the main pulmonary artery (mPA-D) ≥ 33 mm, whereas suspicious PAH was defined as mPA-D ≥ 29 mm or mPA-D/the diameter of the ascending aorta (aAo-D) ≥ 1.0. Before treatment, probable/suspicious PAH were diagnosed in 7 (6.7%)/22 (21.0%) patients, respectively. mPA-D and mPA-D/aAo-D significantly increased after induction of Atez/Bev. The increment of mPA-D was correlated with the occurrence of post-treatment respiratory/heart failure. In analysis of 55 patients who underwent CT at 3 months after the last dose of Atez/Bev, mPA-D and mPA-D/aAo-D significantly decreased. However, in the group with continuous treatment of other molecular-targeted drugs after Atez/Bev, mPA-D and mPA-D/aAo-D showed no significant change. In conclusion, PAH may not be a rare complication in patients with HCC and should be managed carefully because of the possible negative effect of Atez/Bev on PAH.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hepatitis B virus (HBV) is a major cause of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). HBV DNA can get integrated into the hepatocyte genome to promote carcinogenesis. However, the precise mechanism by which the integrated HBV genome promotes HCC has not been elucidated.
AIM To analyze the features of HBV integration in HCC using a new reference database and integration detection method.
METHODS Published data, consisting of 426 Liver tumor samples and 426 paired adjacent non-tumor samples, were re-analyzed to identify the integration sites. Genome Reference Consortium Human Build 38 (GRCh38) and Telomere-to-Telomere Consortium CHM13 (T2T-CHM13 (v2.0)) were used as the human reference genomes. In contrast, human genome 19 (hg19) was used in the original study. In addition, GRIDSS VIRUSBreakend was used to detect HBV integration sites, whereas high-throughput viral integration detection (HIVID) was applied in the original study (HIVID-hg19).
RESULTS A total of 5361 integration sites were detected using T2T-CHM13. In the tumor samples, integration hotspots in the cancer driver genes, such as TERT and KMT2B, were consistent with those in the original study. GRIDSS VIRUSBreakend detected integrations in more samples than by HIVID-hg19. Enrichment of integration was observed at chromosome 11q13.3, including the CCND1 pro-moter, in tumor samples. Recurrent integration sites were observed in mitochondrial genes.
CONCLUSION GRIDSS VIRUSBreakend using T2T-CHM13 is accurate and sensitive in detecting HBV integration. Re-analysis provides new insights into the regions of HBV integration and their potential roles in HCC development.

Abstract
Enhancer of zeste homolog 2 (EZH2), a core component of polycomb repressive component 2 is overexpressed in a variety of cancers and recognized as a therapeutic target molecule. However, EZH2 possesses immunomodulatory functions in the tumor microenvironment (TME). The impact of EZH2 on TME of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) using immunocompetent mouse model was evaluated in the present study. UNC1999, an EZH2 inhibitor, impaired growth of the murine HCC cells (H22 cells) and induced apoptosis in a dose-dependent manner. Although UNC1999 significantly inhibited the growth of H22 cells-derived and Hepa1-6 cells-derived tumors in nonobese diabetic/severe combined immunodeficiency mice, its antitumor effect was diminished in allogenic BALB/c and C57BL/6 mice. Flow cytometric analyses of TME cells in BALB/c mice demonstrated a significant decrease in the number of interferon‑γ+ CD8+ T cells and regulatory T cells and a significant increase in the number of myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs). Administration of Gr-1 neutralizing antibody concomitant with UNC1999 restored antitumor effect accompanied by an increase in the number of CD8+ T cells followed by a decrease in the number of MDSCs. Chemokine antibody array demonstrated an enhanced expression of chemokines responsible for MDSCs recruitment such as C5a, CCL8, and CCL9. In conclusion, the study results demonstrated that EZH2 inhibitor contributed to attenuation of tumor immunity caused by TME arrangement. Combination therapy with EZH2 inhibitors and agents that reduce MDSCs might represent a novel therapeutic strategy for HCC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aimed to investigate the validity of pathological diagnosis of early CRC (E-CRC) from the genetic background by comparing data of E-CRC to colorectal adenoma (CRA) and The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) on advanced CRC (AD-CRC). METHODS TCGA data on AD-CRC were studied in silico, whereas by next-generation sequencer, DNA target sequences were performed for endoscopically obtained CRA and E-CRC samples. Immunohistochemical staining of mismatch repair genes and methylation of MLH1 was also performed. The presence of oncogenic mutation according to OncoKB for the genes of the Wnt, MAPK, and cell-cycle-signaling pathways was compared among CRA, E-CRC, and AD-CRC. RESULTS The study included 22 CRA and 30 E-CRC lesions from the Chiba University Hospital and 212 AD-CRC lesions from TCGA data. Regarding the number of lesions with driver mutations in the Wnt and cell-cycle-signaling pathways, E-CRC was comparable to AD-CRC, but was significantly greater than CRA. CRA had significantly more lesions with a driver mutation for the Wnt signaling pathway only, versus E-CRC. CONCLUSIONS In conclusion, the definition of E-CRC according to the Japanese criteria had a different genetic profile from CRA and was more similar to AD-CRC. Based on the main pathway, it seemed reasonable to classify E-CRC as adenocarcinoma. The pathological diagnosis of E-CRC according to Japanese definition seemed to be valid from a genetic point of view.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hyperprogressive disease (HPD) is a phenomenon with greatly accelerated tumor growth and clinical deterioration rates compared to pre-therapy, in patients treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI). The aim of this study is to clarify the reality of HPD in patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) who were treated with atezolizumab plus bevacizumab (Atez/Bev) using tumor dynamics. METHODS Medical records of consecutive patients with advanced HCC who were treated with Atez/Bev were retrospectively reviewed. HPD was defined as a more than two- or fourfold increase in tumor growth rate (TGR) or tumor growth kinetics rate (TGKR) before and after treatment. Overall survival (OS) and baseline characteristics with or without HPD were analyzed. RESULTS A total of 85 patients were included in the analysis. When HPD was defined as a twofold of TGR or TGKR, 8 patients (8/85, 9.4%) had HPD and 11 had PD without HPD. A total of 5 patients (5/85, 5.9%) were diagnosed with HPD and 14 with PD without HPD when HPD was defined as a fourfold of TGR or TGKR. No significant difference was observed in the baseline characteristics between HPD and non-HPD. CONCLUSION The prevalence of HPD in patients with advanced HCC treated with Atez/Bev was lower than those treated with nivolumab monotherapy. The HPD mechanism in ICI combined with antibodies targeting vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) remains to be elucidated.

Abstract
PURPOSE Ramucirumab was shown to be effective as a second-line treatment after sorafenib in patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) with alpha-fetoprotein levels > 400 ng/mL in a worldwide phase 3 trial. Ramucirumab is used in patients pretreated with various systemic therapies in clinical practice. We retrospectively examined the treatment outcomes of ramucirumab administered to advanced HCC patients after diverse systemic therapies. METHODS Data were collected from patients with advanced HCC who received ramucirumab at three institutions in Japan. Radiological assessments were determined according to both Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumours (RECIST) version 1.1 and modified RECIST and the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events version 5.0 was used to assess adverse events. RESULTS A total of 37 patients treated with ramucirumab between June 2019 and March 2021 were included in the study. Ramucirumab was administered as second, third, fourth, and fifth-line treatment in 13 (35.1%), 14 (37.8%), eight (21.6%), and two (5.4%) patients, respectively. Most patients (29.7%) who received ramucirumab as a second-line therapy were pretreated with lenvatinib. We found grade 3 or higher adverse events only in seven patients and no significant changes in the albumin-bilirubin score during ramucirumab treatment in the present cohort. The median progression-free survival of patients treated with ramucirumab was 2.7 months (95% confidence interval, 1.6-7.3). CONCLUSION Although ramucirumab is used for various lines of treatment other than second-line immediately after sorafenib, its safety and effectiveness were not significantly different from the findings of the REACH-2 trial.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients with inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) can develop extraintestinal manifestations (EIMs) during the disease course, which sometimes impact their quality of life. OBJECTIVES This study aimed to clarify the prevalence and types of EIMs using a hospital-based IBD cohort in Japan. METHODS A patient cohort with IBD was established in 2019, as participated by 15 hospitals in Chiba Prefecture of Japan. Using this cohort, the prevalence and types of EIMs, which are defined based on previous reports and the Japanese guidelines, were investigated. RESULTS This cohort enrolled 728 patients, including 542 ulcerative colitis (UC) and 186 Crohn's disease (CD). Of these patients with IBD, 10.0% were identified with one or more EIMs (57 (10.5%) with UC and 16 (8.6%) with CD). Arthropathy and arthritis were the most common EIM in 23 (4.2%) patients with UC, followed by primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) (2.6%). Arthropathy and arthritis were also the most common in patients with CD, but no cases of PSC were observed. EIMs were more frequently observed in patients with IBD treated by specialists than in those treated by non-specialists (12.7% vs. 5.5%, p = 0.011). The incidence of EIMs in patients with IBD was not significantly different over time. CONCLUSIONS The prevalence and types of EIMs in our hospital-based cohort in Japan did not significantly differ from those reported in previous or Western studies. However, the incidence might be underestimated due to the limited ability of non-IBD specialists to discover and describe EIMs in patients with IBD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIM MHC-class I-related chain A (MICA) functions as a ligand for natural killer group D, an activating receptor on natural killer (NK) cells, and its expression correlates with the carcinogenesis and progression of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Although membranous MICA (mMICA) activates NK cells, soluble forms of MICA (sMICA), shed by cleaving enzymes, such as A disintegrin and metalloprotease (ADAM) 9, suppress NK cells. Therefore, the prevention of MICA shedding through the inhibition of ADAM9 has the potential to activate cancer immunity. Although we have discovered several ADAM inhibitors, many did not sufficiently activate NK cells without being cytotoxic, and, thus, new ADAM9 inhibitor candidates are needed. MATERIALS AND METHODS To identify possible compounds for drug development, chemical library screening (a total of 741 compounds) was conducted using a fluorescence assay. Compounds with reduced fluorescence intensity were used as hit compounds in a subsequent analysis. Their impact on sMICA and mMICA in HCC cell lines was assessed using ELISA and flow cytometry, respectively. The cytotoxicity of NK cells was also evaluated by co-culturing NK cells with HCC cells. RESULTS CCL347, a symmetrical compound with five benzene rings, was identified as a hit compound. CCL347 significantly reduced sMICA levels in the culture medium supernatant with negligible cytotoxicity. Although mMICA was also reduced, CCL347 successfully enhanced NK cell cytotoxicity in co-cultures of NK cells and HCC cells. CONCLUSION CCL347 has potential as a novel therapeutic drug for HCC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although the efficacy of atezolizumab has been demonstrated in randomized controlled trials, its long-term efficacy and association with adverse events in real-world practice are unknown. This study was designed to shed light on these issues. METHODS In this multicenter retrospective study, data were collected from patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma treated with atezolizumab plus bevacizumab in seven institutions in Japan. The authors focused on the efficacy and adverse events related to vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) inhibition. RESULTS A total of 123 patients were enrolled in this study. The median progression-free survival (PFS) for the first-line treatment group was 8.0 months (95% confidence interval [CI], 6.1-9.9), whereas the median PFS for the second- or later-line treatment group was 4.1 months (95% CI, 2.6-5.7), which was significantly worse than that of the first-line treatment group (p = .005). Twenty-seven patients had interrupted bevacizumab treatment. Proteinuria accounted for the largest proportion of bevacizumab treatment interruptions. The cumulative incidence rate of bevacizumab interruption due to anti-VEGF-related adverse events was significantly higher in patients with hypertension and/or diabetes mellitus than in those without (p = .026). The landmark analysis showed that patients experienced bevacizumab interruption by 24 weeks from treatment initiation had poorer PFS than those who did not (p = .013). CONCLUSIONS The PFS of atezolizumab plus bevacizumab as first-line treatment mostly replicates that of a global phase 3 trial. Interrupted bevacizumab treatment was more common in patients with hypertension and/or diabetes mellitus, which may be associated with worsening long-term PFS. PLAIN LANGUAGE SUMMARY Atezolizumab plus bevacizumab has been the standard front line systemic therapy for advanced hepatocellular carcinoma. With the growing incidence of fatty liver due to metabolic syndrome as a background liver disease for hepatocellular carcinoma, the rate of comorbid hypertension and diabetes mellitus has been increasing accordingly. The present study demonstrated the cumulative incidence rate of bevacizumab interruption due to anti-VEGF-related adverse events was significantly higher in patients with hypertension and/or diabetes mellitus. The landmark analysis clarified that interruption of bevacizumab might be a risk of impaired efficacy of atezolizumab plus bevacizumab over the long term in patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma.

Abstract
Transforming growth factor (TGF)-β/Smad pathway is implicated in the pathogenesis of liver fibrosis, a condition characterized by excessive deposition of extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins such as collagen in response to chronic inflammation. It has been reported that ceramide regulates collagen production through TGF-β/Smad pathway activation. In this study, we examined whether miglustat, an inhibitor of glucosylceramide synthase, can suppress liver fibrosis by reducing TGF-β/Smad pathway activity. Human hepatic stellate cells (HHSteCs) were cultured with TGF-β and multiple miglustat concentrations to examine dose-dependent effects on the expression levels of ECM-related genes and Smad proteins. To evaluate the efficacy of miglustat for fibrosis mitigation, C57BL/6 mice were treated with carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) for 4 weeks to induce liver fibrosis, followed by combined CCl4 plus miglustat for a further 2 weeks. To examine if miglustat can also prevent fibrosis, mice were treated with CCl4 for 2 weeks, followed by CCl4 plus miglustat for 2 weeks. Miglustat dose-dependently downregulated expression of α-smooth muscle actin and ECM components in TGF-β-treated HHSteCs. Both phosphorylation and nuclear translocation of Smad2 and Smad3 were also suppressed by miglustat treatment. Sirius-Red staining and hydroxyproline assays of model mouse liver samples revealed that miglustat reduced fibrosis, an effect accompanied by decreased expression of ECM. Our findings suggest that miglustat can both prevent and reverse liver fibrosis by inhibiting TGF-β/Smad pathway.

Abstract
Nasal pressure signal is commonly used to evaluate obstructive sleep apnea. This study aimed to assess its safety for respiratory monitoring during sedation. A total of 45 adult patients undergoing sedation with propofol and fentanyl for invasive endoscopic procedures were enrolled. While both nasal pressure and capnograph signals were continuously recorded, only the nasal pressure signal was displayed. The primary outcome was the incidence of oxygen desaturation below 90%. The secondary outcomes were the ability to predict the desaturation and incidence of harmful events and false alarms, defined as an apnea waveform lasting more than 3 min without desaturation. Of the 45 participants, 43 completed the study. At least one desaturation event occurred in 12 patients (27.9%; 95% confidence interval 15.3-43.7%). In these 12 patients, more than half of the desaturation events were predictable in 9 patients by capnography and 11 patients by nasal pressure monitoring (p = 0.59). In the 43 patients, false alarms were detected in 7 patients with capnography and 11 patients with nasal pressure monitoring (p = 0.427). Harmful events unrelated to nasal pressure monitoring occurred in 2 patients. Nasal pressure monitoring is safe and possibly useful for respiratory monitoring despite false alarms during sedation.

BACKGROUNDS AND STUDY AIMS Gastric submucosal tumors (SMTs) are treated or monitored according to gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) guidelines, but their adequacy has not been thoroughly investigated. We investigated the long-term course of gastric SMTs to determine the validity of guideline-based follow-up methods and the factors contributing to their size increase. METHODS In the study, gastric SMTs diagnosed as gastrointestinal mesenchymal tumors (GIMTs) by endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) and followed up with EUS were included. The percentage and speed of GIMT enlargement and factors associated with the enlargement were investigated using the Cox proportional hazards model. RESULTS From January 1994 to May 2022, 925 gastric SMTs were evaluated with esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD), and 231 SMTs were diagnosed with GIMTs. Of the 231 GIMTs, 145 were examined by EUS more than twice and were followed up on for more than 6 months. The mean follow-up period was 5.20 ± 4.04 years (0.5-17.3 years), with 39 of 145 GIMTs (26.9%) increasing in size with a doubling time of 3.60 ± 3.37 years. A multivariate analysis of factors influencing tumor growth revealed that irregular extraluminal borders were an increasing factor (hazard ratio [HR]: 3.65, 95% CI: 1.26-10.52), initial tumor size of 9.5 mm or less (HR: 0.23, 95% CI: 0.07-0.77) was a non-increasing factor, and GIMTs with calcification (n = 13) did not increase in size. CONCLUSIONS Tumor growth in gastric GIMTs less than 9.5 mm in diameter and/or with calcification is rare. Follow-up intervals for these lesions could be extended.

Abstract
A patient experienced gastric fundic gland-type hyperplastic polyps, consisting of foveolar epithelium and parietal cells, complicated with chronic bleeding due to long-term treatment with vonoprazan. The patient had progressive anemia, probably caused by bleeding from the polyps. After switching from vonoprazan to a histamine-2 (H2) receptor antagonist, the polyps markedly shrank and the anemia improved. Vonoprazan can produce reversible hyperplastic polyps and anemia. In case of anemia in patients receiving long-term vonoprazan, it is important to consider drug cessation or change to an H2 blocker.

Abstract
To gain a better understanding of the effects of biologics, we evaluated clinical outcomes in patients with moderate to severe exacerbations of ulcerative colitis (UC). This retrospective, multicenter study retrieved the entire clinical courses of UC patients who began treatments between 2004 and 2018. All exacerbations and clinical parameters, including treatment details for exacerbations and both remission and re-exacerbation dates, were identified during the observation period. Two different endpoints, the cumulative incidence rates of surgical resection and re-exacerbation, were evaluated separately in moderate to severe exacerbation events. Among 1401 patients, 1626 exacerbation events were determined according to a partial Mayo score (remission: < 2, mild: 2-4, moderate: 5-7, and severe: > 7). During the observation period, as administration rates of biologics increased, both surgical resection and hospitalization rates decreased, for 959 moderate to severe exacerbation events. We confirmed that biologics significantly reduced the cumulative re-exacerbation rate in moderate to severe exacerbation events during the study period compared with suboptimal therapies (a 0.507-fold decreased risk according to COX regression analysis, P < 0.001). However, they had not enough impact in reducing the cumulative incidence rate of surgical resection in moderate to severe exacerbation events that were corticosteroid-refractory or dependent (a 0.878-fold decreased risk according to COX regression analysis, P = 0.606). Biologics may improve remission duration, but these agents had no significant impact in reducing the risk of surgical resection in moderate to severe active UC.

Abstract
AIM Carbon-ion radiotherapy (C-ion RT) has shown potential as a curative treatment for patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). However, no reports have compared the effectiveness of C-ion RT and radiofrequency ablation (RFA). This study aimed to compare clinical outcomes between C-ion RT and RFA for patients with early-stage HCC. METHODS Medical records of consecutive patients with HCC (single lesion ≤5 cm or two to three lesions ≤3 cm) who received either C-ion RT or RFA as initial treatment were retrospectively reviewed. Propensity score matching (PSM) was used to adjust for clinical factors between both groups. RESULTS A total of 560 patients were included, among whom 69 and 491 received C-ion RT and RFA, respectively. After PSM (C-ion RT, 54 patients; RFA, 95 patients), both groups were well balanced. Carbon-ion radiotherapy had significantly lower cumulative intrasubsegmental recurrence rate after PSM compared to RFA (p = 0.004) (2-year, 12.6% vs. 31.7%; 5-year, 15.5% vs. 49.6%, respectively). However, no significant difference in cumulative local recurrence rate, stage progression-free survival, or overall survival (OS) was observed between both groups. In the RFA group, 6 of 491 patients (1.2%) showed grade 3 adverse events, whereas no grade 3 or higher adverse events were observed in the C-ion RT group. CONCLUSION Carbon-ion radiotherapy provided a lower cumulative intrasubsegmental recurrence rate, but a comparable cumulative local recurrence rate, stage progression-free survival, and OS compared to RFA. Thus, C-ion RT appears to be one of the effective treatment options for early-stage HCC when RFA is deemed not indicated.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Letermovir has been approved as a novel cytomegalovirus (CMV) prophylactic agent after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). However, there are still insufficient data to properly evaluate the real-world role of letermovir, and the risk factors for CMV reactivation under letermovir prophylaxis have not been clarified. METHODS We performed a single-institution retrospective analysis of patients under prophylaxis with or without letermovir who underwent allogeneic HSCT between March 2012 and December 2019. In August 2018, letermovir was added to the clinical practice at our institution for the prophylaxis of CMV reactivation in allogeneic HSCT recipients. Patients who underwent HSCT without prophylactic letermovir from March 2012 until September 2018 served as a historical control. RESULTS The cumulative incidence of clinically significant CMV infection (CS-CMVi) was significantly lower in the letermovir group than in the historical control group not receiving letermovir (30.2% vs. 71.6%, p < .05, at 100 days). In addition, the cumulative incidence of non-relapse mortality (NRM) at day 500 was significantly lower in the letermovir group (4.7% vs. 19.8%, p < .05). We then performed a risk factor analysis for developing CS-CMVi in the letermovir group. The only significant factor identified by this multivariable analysis was transplantation from a CMV seronegative donor to a seropositive recipient (Hazard ratio = 2.76, 95% confidence interval 1.14-6.68, p < .05). CONCLUSION Our study showed that letermovir prophylaxis significantly reduced the incidence of CS-CMVi and NRM in a real-world setting and that the CMV serostatus of the donor remained as a risk factor for CS-CMVi even under letermovir prophylaxis.

Abstract
A 46-year-old man was referred to our hospital for the examination of a flat elevated lesion with an erosion-like depression, located on the greater curvature of the antrum. Endoscopic submucosal dissection was performed. Histological findings of the resected specimen demonstrated a well-differentiated tubular adenocarcinoma with a diameter of 12 mm. No atrophy was observed in the tumor-adjacent mucosa. Serum Helicobacter pylori antibody estimation and 13C-urea breath tests yielded negative results. Immunohistochemical staining was positive for both gastric mucin and intestinal mucin. The final diagnosis was well-differentiated tubular adenocarcinoma with a gastrointestinal phenotype that originated in mucosa uninfected by H. pylori.

Abstract
The prevalence of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) has decreased during several decades due to improvements in the sanitary environment in Japan. Consequently, a relative increase in the incidence of H. pylori-uninfected gastric cancer is expected. We analyzed the trends in H. pylori-uninfected gastric cancer. Two hundred fifty-eight patients with gastric cancer were retrospectively analyzed. The study was divided into four periods: 2008-2011 (first period), 2012-2014 (second period), 2015-2017 (third period), and 2018-2021 (fourth period). The status of H. pylori infection was divided into four categories: uninfected, successful eradication, spontaneous eradication, and persistent infection. Gastric mucosal atrophy was divided into six grades according to the Kimura-Takemoto classification. The proportion of H. pylori infections significantly changed over the study period (p = 0.007). In particular, the rate of H. pylori-uninfected gastric cancer tended to increase over time (0%, 2.9%, 4.9%, and 13.4% in the first, second, third, and fourth periods, respectively; p = 0.0013). The rate of no atrophy (C-0) in gastric cancer tended to increase over time (0%, 2.9%, 4.9%, and 11.0% in the first, second, third, and fourth periods, respectively; p = 0.0046). In conclusion, the rate of H. pylori-uninfected gastric cancer without gastric atrophy tended to increase over time.

Abstract
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) has become the leading cause of chronic liver disease worldwide. Patients with NAFLD often suffer steatohepatitis, which can progress to cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma. The presence of visceral obesity or type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a major risk factor and potential therapeutic target for NAFLD. The establishment of animal models with these metabolic comorbidities and with the rapid progression of the disease is needed for developing treatments for NAFLD but remains to be archived. In the present study, KK-Ay mice, widely used as T2DM models, or C57BL6 mice were fed a high-fat, high-fructose, and high-cholesterol diet supplemented with cholic acid (NAFLD diet). The KK-Ay mice fed a NAFLD diet exhibited remarkable obesity and insulin resistance. A prominent accumulation of triglycerides and cholesterol in the liver was observed at 4 weeks. These mice developed steatohepatitis at 4 weeks and fibrosis at 12 weeks. In contrast, C57BL6 mice fed a NAFLD diet remained lean, although they still developed steatohepatitis and fibrosis. In summary, we established a diet-induced murine NAFLD model with the rapid development of steatohepatitis and fibrosis, bearing obesity and insulin resistance. This model could be useful as preclinical models for drug development of NAFLD.

Abstract
Although the efficacy and safety of salvage techniques for biliary cannulation in endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) have been reported, few reports analyzed the choice of techniques and their clinical outcomes in large cohorts. This study aimed to evaluate the outcomes of biliary cannulation in patients with native papillae. We retrospectively identified 1021 patients who underwent initial ERCP from January 2013 to March 2020. We investigated background factors, treatment details, cannulation success rates, and adverse event rates. Then we analyzed a series of treatment processes, including salvage techniques such as double guidewire technique (DGT), needle knife pre-cutting (NKP), and transpancreatic pre-cut papillotomy (TPPP). The initial ERCP success rate using standard technique alone was 62.8%, which increased to 94.3% including salvage techniques. Salvage techniques were frequently required in patients with long oral protrusions (OR 2.38; 95% CI 1.80–3.15; p < 0.001). A total of 503 cases (49.3%) had long oral protrusions, 47.5% of which required the salvage techniques, much higher than 27.5% of not-long cases. Patients with long oral protrusions had a higher frequency of NKP. In conclusion, patients with long oral protrusions frequently required salvage techniques. Salvage techniques may help to overcome many difficult biliary cannulation cases.

Abstract
PURPOSE The dose-limiting factor of ramucirumab plus docetaxel (RAM + DTX) in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is febrile neutropenia (FN), which has a high incidence in Asians. This study aimed to evaluate the cost-effectiveness of pegfilgrastim (Peg-G) in patients with NSCLC receiving RAM + DTX in Japan. METHODS We simulated model patients treated with RAM + DTX in Japan and developed a decision-analytical model for patients receiving Peg-G prophylaxis or no primary prophylaxis. The expected cost, quality-adjusted life-year (QALY), and incremental cost-effectiveness ratio (ICER) of each treatment were calculated from the perspective of a Japanese healthcare payer. The willingness-to-pay (WTP) threshold was set at 45,867 United States dollars (USD) (5 million Japanese yen) per QALY gained. The probabilities, utility values, and other costs were obtained from published sources. Deterministic sensitivity analysis (DSA) and probabilistic analysis were conducted to evaluate the effect of each parameter and robustness of the base-case results. RESULTS The expected cost and QALYs were 20,275 USD and 0.701 for Peg-G prophylaxis and 17,493 USD and 0.672 for no primary prophylaxis, respectively. The ICER was calculated to be 97,519 USD per QALY gained. The results were most sensitive to FN risk with Peg-G. When FN risk with no primary prophylaxis exceeded 51% or the cost of Peg-G was less than 649 USD per injection, the ICER was below the WTP threshold. The probabilistic analysis revealed a 9.1% probability that the ICER was below the WTP threshold. CONCLUSION Peg-G is not cost-effective in patients with NSCLC receiving RAM + DTX in Japan.

Abstract
Iron-deficiency anemia (IDA) associated with gastrointestinal diseases is the second most common etiology of IDA in Japan, and is most often caused by gastrointestinal bleeding. A multicenter, single-arm (2 groups), open-label, phase III study was conducted to assess the efficacy and safety of ferric derisomaltose (FDI) when administered by intravenous (IV) bolus injection (n = 30) or drip infusion (n = 10) in Japanese patients with IDA associated with gastrointestinal diseases. The primary endpoint, which was the mean maximum change in hemoglobin (Hb) concentration from baseline, was 4.33 (95% confidence interval, 3.82-4.83) g/dL in the overall population (4.27 [3.83-4.71] g/dL in the bolus injection group and 4.49 [2.69-6.29] g/dL in the drip infusion group). Treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) were reported in 24 patients (60.0%) in the overall population (18 patients [60.0%] in the bolus injection group and 6 patients [60.0%] in the drip infusion group). No serious treatment-related TEAEs or unexpected safety findings were reported during the study. These findings reveal a favorable efficacy and safety profile for FDI when administered by IV bolus injection or drip infusion in Japanese patients with IDA associated with gastrointestinal diseases.

Abstract
This pilot study aimed to investigate the utility of texture and color enhancement imaging (TXI) with magnified endoscopy (ME) for the preoperative diagnosis of superficial nonampullary duodenal epithelial tumors (SNADETs). We prospectively evaluated 12 SNADETs. The visibility for ME-TXI, ME with indigo carmine (ICME)—white-light imaging (WLI), ICME-TXI compared to ME-NBI (narrow-band imaging) was scored (+ 2 to − 2 ME-NBI was set as score 0) by 3 experts. Scores + 2 and + 1 were defined as improved visibility. The intra-observer and interobserver agreement for improved visibility of surface structure (SS) was evaluated. Sensitivity, specificity, and positive predictive value (PPV) for Vienna Classification (VCL) C4/5 associated with the preoperative diagnosis of ICME-TXI were analyzed. The SS visibility score of ICME-TXI was significantly higher than that of ME-NBI, ME-TXI, and ICME-WLI (P < 0.001 respectively). The kappa coefficients of reliability for intra-observer and interobserver agreement for the SS visibility improvement with ICME-TXI were 0.96, 1.00, 1.00 and 0.70, 0.96, 0.96 respectively. All endoscopists preferred ICME-TXI for visualizing SS mostly for all lesions. The sensitivity, specificity, and PPV (%) of ICME-TXI for VCL C4/5 were 80, 66.7, and 63.2, respectively. ICME-TXI facilitates the visibility of the SS of SNADETs and may contribute to their preoperative diagnosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND With the evolution of personalized medicine in the field of oncology, which includes optimal treatment selection using next-generation sequencing-based companion diagnostic systems and tumor-agnostic treatments according to common biomarkers, a liver tumor biopsy technique that can obtain a sufficient specimen volume must be established. The current study aimed to evaluate the safety and availability of a liver tumor biopsy technique with multiple puncture sites made using a coaxial introducer needle and embolization with gelatin sponge particles. METHODS Patients with primary or metastatic liver cancer who underwent liver tumor biopsies with puncture tract embolization using gelatin sponge (Spongel®) from October 2019 to September 2020 were included in the study. The complication and diagnostic rates were evaluated, and whether the specimen volume was sufficient for Foundation® CDx was investigated. RESULTS In total, 96 patients were enrolled in this analysis. The median total number of puncture times per patient was 3 (range 1-8). The pathological diagnostic rate was 79.2%. Using the FoundationOne® CDx, specimens with a sufficient volume required for genomic medicine were collected in 84.9% of patients. The incidence rate of bleeding was 4.2% (n = 4), and only one patient presented with major bleeding requiring transfusion. CONCLUSIONS Liver biopsy with puncture tract embolization using a gelatin sponge may be safe and effective for collecting specimens with a volume sufficient for modern cancer treatments.

Abstract
Background Olanzapine has been shown to have an additive effect on the three-drug antiemetic therapy consisting of aprepitant, palonosetron, and dexamethasone, in a highly emetogenic cisplatin-containing chemotherapy. Although olanzapine may be more economical than aprepitant or palonosetron, an adequate cost-efficacy analysis has not been conducted. Methods We conducted a cost-utility analysis to evaluate the cost-effectiveness of olanzapine use in four-drug antiemetic therapy among Japanese patients. We simulated model patients treated with highly emetogenic cisplatin-containing chemotherapy and developed a decision-analytical model of patients receiving triple antiemetic therapy with or without olanzapine in an inpatient setting. The cost and probabilities of each treatment were calculated from the perspective of the Japanese healthcare payer. The probabilities, utility value, and other costs were obtained from published sources. One-way and probabilistic sensitivity analyses were conducted to examine the influence of each parameter on the model and the robustness of a base-case analysis. Threshold analysis was conducted to determine the cost of olanzapine that would make the incremental cost-effectiveness ratio (ICER) equivalent to the threshold ICER). The threshold incremental cost-effectiveness ratio was set at 5 million Japanese Yen (JPY) per quality-adjusted life-year (QALY) gained. Results The cost was 10,238 JPY in the olanzapine regimen and 9719 JPY in the non-olanzapine regimen. The QALY gained were 0.01065 QALYs and 0.01029 QALYs in the olanzapine and non-olanzapine regimen, respectively. The incremental cost of the olanzapine regimen relative to the non-olanzapine regimen was 519 JPY, and the incremental QALYs were 0.00036 QALY, resulting in an ICER of 1,428,675 JPY per QALY gained. In the one-way sensitivity analysis, the results were most sensitive to the utility value of incomplete control. The probabilistic sensitivity analysis revealed the probability that the ICER was below the willingness-to-pay, and the incremental QALYs was positive was 96.2%. The calculated cost of olanzapine per 5 mg that would make the incremental cost-effectiveness ratio equivalent to the threshold incremental cost-effectiveness ratio was calculated to be 475 JPY. Conclusions Olanzapine was cost-effective in the four-drug antiemetic therapy for Japanese patients treated with highly emetogenic cisplatin-containing chemotherapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM Anti-tumor necrosis factor (TNF)α antibody (ATA) and biologics/molecular targeted agents with other mechanisms (non-ATA) are currently available for refractory ulcerative colitis (UC). However, the knowledge about optimal drug selection after the initial treatment with ATA failure is lacking. This study assessed whether the response to the initial ATA could be a basis for selecting subsequent agents in UC patients. METHODS Ulcerative colitis patients treated with ATA or non-ATA as the subsequent biologic after the failure of initial ATA were retrospectively analyzed. The efficacy at 14 weeks was examined according to the response to initial ATA. RESULTS Of 163 patients treated with the first ATA, the efficacy of subsequent ATA and non-ATA was evaluated in 63 and 36, respectively. Remission and response to subsequent-line therapy, regardless of ATA or non-ATA, were lower in patients with primary nonresponse (PNR) to initial ATA than in patients with efficacy to initial ATA (33.3% vs 69.2%, P < 0.01). In patients with PNR to initial ATA, the remission rate with subsequent ATA was significantly lower than with subsequent non-ATA (4.3% vs 26.3%, P = 0.04). In patients who showed efficacy to initial ATA, the remission rate with subsequent ATA was also lower than that with subsequent non-ATA (30.6% vs 56.3%, P = 0.08). PNR with initial ATA was the predictor of PNR to subsequent ATA (odds ratio: 5.62, 95% confidence interval: 1.50-21.7). CONCLUSION Non-ATA may be suitable in UC patients as the subsequent biologics regardless of the outcome of the first ATA.
