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

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Obesity has the adverse prognostic impact in the general population, whereas paradoxical effect of obesity has been reported in patients with heart failure. Several studies have suggested the same obesity paradox in patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI), however, they included limited number of underweight patients.
Purpose
The aim of this study was to clarify the effect of underweight on outcome following TAVI.
Methods
We retrospectively analyzed consecutive 1,027 patients undergoing TAVI between April 2010 and June 2019. The patients were categorized according to body mass index (BMI) as follows: underweight (<18.5 kg/m2, n=150), normal weight (18.5 to 25 kg/m2, n=657), and overweight (>25 kg/m2, n=220). BMI was defined as body weight (kg) divided by the square of body height (m) measured at the hospital admission. We compared the short- and mid-term outcome after TAVI among three groups, and all clinical events were accordance with Valve Academic Research Consortium-2 criteria.
Results
Underweight patients were more often female, and had a higher prevalence of hypertension, dyslipidemia, peripheral artery disease, anemia, and hypoalbuminemia. They also presented lower ejection fraction, smaller aortic valve area, and higher surgical risk score. In procedural findings, device unsuccess and major vascular complication more occurred in underweight patients, but 30-day mortality was equivalent among three groups. The mid-term survival of the underweight was inferior to the other two groups (figure).In the multivariate analysis, female (hazard ratio [HR] 0.52, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.37–0.73, P=0.0002), atrial fibrillation (HR 2.22, 95% CI 1.56–3.17, P<0.0001), albumin value (HR 0.37 per 1-g/dl increase, 95% CI 0.25–0.55, P<0.0001), Society of Thoracic Surgeons score (HR 1.06 per 1% increase, 95% CI 1.02–1.06, P=0.0039), 30-day combined endpoint (HR 2.12, 95% CI 1.33–3.38, P=0.0017), and underweight (HR 1.59, 95% CI 1.04–2.37, P=0.026) were associated with the survival after TAVI.
Conclusion
The underweight had a worse mid-term prognosis, representing the obesity paradox in the TAVI population.

Introduction
Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is an alternative treatment for inoperative or high-risk patients requiring surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR). In previous studies, the vital capacity falls to about 50% immediately after SAVR. Although the vital capacity recovers to about 60-70% in one week, it does not recover to preoperative levels at 3 months following SAVR 1)2). TAVR is expected to preserve respiratory function because TAVR does not require a sternotomy.
Purpose
The purpose of this study was to investigate early stage respiratory function after a TAVR. We assumed that respiratory function is not reduced after a TAVR.
Methods
This prospective study was approved by the local ethics committee of our Institute. Written informed consent was obtained from all patients. The subjects were patients who underwent TAVI at our Institute from July 2017 to March 2019. Exclusion criteria included patients who refused to provide informed consent, emergent cases, NYHA (New York Heart Association) Class IV patients, patients receiving inotropes, patients under mechanical ventilation, patients enrolled in other studies, or patients for whom conducting pulmonary function tests were judged to be difficult. The pulmonary function test was conducted once a day until one week after the TAVR procedure.
Results
The target number was 100, and we ceased registration when informed consent was obtained from 100 patients. TAVR was conducted for 142 cases in this period and 42 cases were excluded. After informed consent was obtained, 17 cases were excluded because they met the exclusion criteria, and the analysis was conducted with 83 cases. The vital capacity and % of vital capacity were significantly reduced from the first day to the sixth day and recovered to preoperative levels at the seventh day after TAVR. The forced expiratory volume was significantly reduced from the first day to the fifth day, and recovered to preoperative levels at the sixth day after TAVR. The percentage of forced expiratory volume at one second was not significantly reduced.
Conclusions
The respiratory function was reduced in the early stages after TAVR. The respiratory function was reduced mostly on the first day after TAVR and recovered to preoperative levels on the seventh day after TAVR. After TAVR, the respiratory function recovered earlier than after SAVR. We believe that TAVR is more suitable for patients with reduced respiratory function.

Abstract
We report a case of liver metastasis of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma that achieved clinical complete response after gemcitabine(GEM)and cisplatin(CDDP)combination chemotherapy. The patient was a 69-year-old man who was diagnosed with intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma with hilar invasion and intrahepatic metastasis(cT4N0M0, Stage ⅣA)and was initially treated with right trisegmentectomy with left portal vein resection, lymph node dissection, and reconstruction of the left portal vein and biliary tract after transhepatic portal vein embolization(PTPE). S-1 was administered continuously as postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy, and the patient showed no signs of recurrence. Three years after the surgery, a CT scan showed LDA 10mm in diameter in the middle area of the remnant liver. We suspected liver metastasis when both serum CA19-9 and DUPAN-2 levels were elevated with the increasing size of LDA; liver biopsy was then performed, and he was diagnosed with liver metastasis of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma. After 3 courses of combination chemotherapy containing GEM and CDDP, a CT scan revealed that the liver metastasis reduced in size, and PR was achieved based on the RECIST standard. After 12 courses, the liver metastasis disappeared, and the patient had achieved CR based on the RECIST standard. The patient has received S-1 following the combination chemotherapy and survived for 6 years since initial treatment without any other metastatic lesions.

Abstract
Nodular fasciitis (NF) is a self-limiting fibrous neoplasm that can be mistaken for a soft tissue sarcoma. It is characterised by rapid growth, slight pain and local tenderness. Although it is frequently found in the forearm, a lesion distal to the wrist is quite rare. We present two unusual cases of NF involving the palm, supported by detecting ubiquitin specific protease 6 gene rearrangement. The first patient had non-intraneural NF presenting as peripheral neuropathy affecting the digital nerve while the second patient suffered from painless, non-tender NF in the palm, which had not regressed spontaneously during the five months prior to surgery.

Abstract
Although primary mediastinal germ cell tumors are found much more frequently among young males than among other people, we recently encountered a middle-aged woman with the disease. The patient was a 59-year-old woman who complained mainly of anterior chest pain. Chest CT scans revealed a nonhomogeneous mass measuring 7 x 7 cm in the anterior mediastinal area, accompanied by signs suggestive of mediastinal invasion of the tumor. Reduction surgery was performed. The pathologic diagnosis was mediastinal dysgerminoma. The patient received postoperative radiochemotherapy but died due to liver metastasis 11 months after surgery.

Abstract
An unusual case is described in which an abscess developed remote from a carcinoma of the rectum. A 52-year-old Japanese man developed a gluteal abscess six months after radiation therapy for unresectable carcinoma of the rectum. This case is presented with a review of the literature. Perforating carcinoma of the colon and rectum with abscess formation is best treated by preliminary total diversion colostomy and local drainage of the abscess. However, the mortality rate is still high.

Abstract
AIMS The aims of this study were to analyse the long-term outcome of vascularised fibular graft (VFG) reconstruction after tumour resection and to evaluate the usefulness of the method. PATIENTS AND METHODS We retrospectively reviewed 49 patients who had undergone resection of a sarcoma and reconstruction using a VFG between 1988 and 2015. Their mean follow-up was 98 months (5 to 317). Reconstruction was with an osteochondral graft (n = 13), intercalary graft (n = 12), inlay graft (n = 4), or resection arthrodesis (n = 20). We analysed the oncological and functional outcome, and the rate of bony union and complications. RESULTS Five- and ten-year overall survival rates were 89% and 86%, respectively. Local recurrence occurred in two patients. Eight patients developed pulmonary metastases. Bone union was achieved in 44 patients (90%). Fracture occurred in six patients (12%), infection in three (6%), and nonunion in five (10%). The mean Musculoskeletal Tumor Society (MSTS) scores were as follows: osteochondral graft 70%; intercalary graft 73%; inlay graft 89%; and resection arthrodesis 83%. CONCLUSION Although associated with a relatively high rate of complications, each reconstruction method is useful, with a high rate of successful limb salvage and a good long-term functional outcome.

Abstract
Patients with short bowel syndrome experience malabsorption and digestive disorders. They are unable to maintain adequate nutrition by the oral or enteral route alone, and their requirements for liquids, electrolytes, nutrients, microelements, vitamins, etc., are not completely met. Managing the nutritional needs of these patients is important. Another concern is these patients' inability to absorb medication, because the small intestine that is shortened in short bowel syndrome is the principal site of drug absorption. Here, we report a case of a 74-year-old woman with a 30 cm residual jejunum after surgery for acute occlusion of the superior mesenteric artery and the clinical management of nutrition and anticoagulant medication in this patient.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Thymic carcinoma (TC) is an exceptionally rare tumor, which has a very poor prognosis differing from thymoma. Till date, there has been no report of any results of clinical trials focusing on TC. The role of non-anthracycline-based chemotherapy has not been elucidated since the previous studies included a relatively small number of TC patients. This single-arm study evaluated carboplatin and paclitaxel (CbP) in chemotherapy-naive patients with advanced TC. PATIENTS AND METHODS The study treatment consisted of carboplatin (area under the curve 6) and paclitaxel (200 mg/m(2)) every 3 weeks for a maximum of six cycles. The primary end point was objective response rate (ORR) by independent review. The secondary end points included overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS), and safety. Based on the SWOG 2-stage design, the planned sample size of 40 patients was determined to reject the ORR of 20% under the expectation of 40% with a power of 0.85 and a type I error of 0.05. RESULTS Forty patients from 21 centers were enrolled for this study from May 2008 to November 2010. Of the 39 patients evaluable for analysis, 36 were pathologically diagnosed by independent review, and 97% patients were eventually TC. There was 1/13 complete/partial responses with an ORR of 36% (95% confidence interval 21%-53%; P = 0.031). The median PFS was 7.5 (6.2-12.3) months, while OS did not reach the median value. Major adverse event was grade 3-4 neutropenia in 34 patients (87%). There was no treatment-related death. CONCLUSIONS In this largest trial with TC, CbP showed promising efficacy in advanced TC when compared with anthracycline-based chemotherapy, which is the current standard treatment of thymic neoplasm. Our results established that CbP, one of the standard treatments for non-small-cell lung cancer, might be an option as a chemotherapy regimen for TC.

Abstract
Abstract
In the high speed melt spinning of polyfethylene terephthalate), the spinline was quenched with a water-bath and diameter profiles were measured. The filament diameter measured just above the water-surface was much thicker than that of the asspun filament and the deformation of filament after it was immersed in the water was suggested. At a take-up velocity of 6000 m/min without a water-bath, neck-like deformation was observed. When the water-bath was set farther from the spinneret than the position of neck-like deformation, the diameter at the water-surface was still thicker than that of as-spun filament. In other words, neck-like deformations disappeared. The friction stress applied to running filament by the water was estimated from the measurement of spinline tension. The calculation of the temperature distribution in the filament cross-section revealed that cooling behavior in the water is governed not by heat transfer from a filament surface to the water but by heat conduction in the polymer. Rapid increase of spinline tension due to high friction stress by the water and relatively slow cooling of filament due to low heat conductivity of the polymer lead to the deformation of filaments in the water and disappearance of neck-like deformation.

Abstract
Excessive T helper type 1 (Th1) cell activity has been reported in Behçet's disease (BD). Recently, association of Th17 cells with certain autoimmune diseases was reported, and we thus investigated circulating Th17 cells in BD. CD4(+) CD45RO(-) (naive) T cells were cultured with Th0-, Th1-, Th2- and Th17-related cytokines and antibodies, and their mRNA was studied by real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR). When naive CD4(+) T cells were cultured with Th1- and Th17-related cytokines, interferon (IFN)-γ mRNA and interleukin (IL)-17 mRNA were up-regulated, respectively, in BD patients. Naive CD4(+) T cells cultured in a Th17 cell-inducing condition expressed IL-23 receptor (IL-23R) mRNA excessively. IL-17 mRNA expression was induced only when naive CD4(+) T cells were cultured in the presence of IL-23. CD4(+) T cells cultured with Th17 cytokines expressed excessive RAR-related orphan receptor C (RORC) mRNA. Using intracellular cytokine staining, we found that CD45RO(+) (memory) CD4(+) T cells producing IL-17 and IFN-γ simultaneously were increased significantly. Memory CD4(+) T cells producing IFN-γ but not IL-17 decreased profoundly in BD patients. CD4(+) T cells producing IL-17 and IFN-γ simultaneously were found in BD skin lesions. Collectively, we found excessive CD4(+) T cells producing IL-17 and IFN-γ (Th1/Th17) cells in patients with BD, and possible involvement of IL-23/IL-23R pathway for the appearance of excessive Th1/Th17 cells.
