Abstract
BACKGROUND We investigated the prognostic role of preoperative chemotherapy in patients who underwent hepatectomy for liver-limited metastasis (LLM) from gastric cancer (GC). METHODS A retrospective analysis was conducted for 52 consecutive patients who underwent macroscopically complete (R0 or R1) resection for synchronous or metachronous LLM from GC. RESULTS Of the 52 patients, 18 (35%) received preoperative chemotherapy (PC group), while 34 (65%) underwent upfront surgery (US group). The PC group had a significantly longer overall survival than the US group (cumulative 5-year OS rate: 47.6% vs. 24.8%, p = 0.041). Multivariate analysis of OS revealed that preoperative chemotherapy was an independent favorable prognostic factor (hazard ratio: 0.445, p = 0.036). Patients showing a partial response to preoperative chemotherapy on RECIST had an improved OS compared with those exhibiting stable or progressive disease after preoperative chemotherapy and with US (p = 0.025), even among those with solitary LLM (p = 0.062) and multiple LLM (p = 0.026). At recurrence after hepatectomy for LLM, the PC group had a significantly higher incidence of solitary tumors than the US group (p = 0.043) and had a higher chance to undergo surgical resection for recurrent sites (p = 0.006). CONCLUSIONS Preoperative chemotherapy can be recommended for patients with LLM from GC. The evaluation of the efficacy of preoperative chemotherapy offers additional information to determine the surgical indication for LLM.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aimed to evaluate the adequate extent of regional lymphadenectomy according to tumor location and the impact of number-based nodal classification on survival in patients with non-ampullary duodenal adenocarcinoma (NADAC). METHODS A total of 85 patients with NADAC who underwent surgery were enrolled. The frequency of metastasis was calculated for each node group in the respective tumor locations for 63 patients who underwent lymphadenectomy for pT2-pT4 tumor. RESULTS The frequency of metastasis in the pancreaticoduodenal (nos. 13 and 17) and superior mesenteric artery (no. 14) nodes was high (16.7 %-52.3 %) regardless of tumor location. Metastasis in the perigastric (nos. 3 and 4d) and right celiac artery (no. 9) nodes was not uncommon (14.3 %-22.2 %) for tumors in the first portion. The frequency of metastasis in the pyloric (nos. 5 and 6) and the other peripancreaticoduodenal (nos. 8 and 12) nodes varied depending on tumor location but could not be ignored for staging. When these nodes were classified as regional nodes, the 5-year survival in patients with pN0, pN1 (1-2 positive nodes), and pN2 (≥3 positive nodes) were 82.9 %, 51.7 %, and 19.2 %, respectively (p < 0.001). pN classification independently predicted survival (pN1, p = 0.022; pN2, p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Nos. 5, 6, 8, 12, 13, 14, and 17 nodes in all advanced NADAC and nos. 3, 4d, and 9 nodes in advanced NADAC in the first portion should be considered as regional nodes for accurate staging. The number-based nodal classification allows good patients' prognostic stratification.

Abstract
Metastatic choroidal carcinoma is rare and generally has a poor prognosis. The present case report describes a case of choroidal metastasis from distal cholangiocarcinoma, which was successfully managed using stereotactic radiotherapy (SRT). A 67-year-old Japanese man underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy for distal cholangiocarcinoma. The pathological stage was T2N0M0 stage IIA, according to the Union for International Cancer Control 8th edition. After surgery, the patient received adjuvant chemotherapy with oral TS-1® for 1 month. A total of 2 months after surgery, the patient was readmitted to hospital due to decreased visual acuity. Fundoscopy revealed a macular hole in the right eye that accounted for the decreased visual acuity. Additionally, Goldmann three-mirror contact lens examination revealed a 4-mm choroidal mass with a yellowish color situated at a considerable distance from the optic nerve. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed an enhanced choroidal mass. Based on the findings of ophthalmologic examinations and the patient's history of cholangiocarcinoma, they were diagnosed with choroidal metastasis from distal cholangiocarcinoma. SRT was administered at a total dose of 40 Gy divided into 8 Gy fractions. A total of 1 year after SRT, the patient achieved complete remission without decreased visual acuity. The patient remains alive and in good health without recurrence, 4 years after the diagnosis of choroidal metastasis. To the best of our knowledge, this is the second reported case of intraocular metastasis from cholangiocarcinoma. In conclusion, SRT may provide an opportunity to control metastatic choroidal carcinoma without decreasing visual acuity.

Abstract
The memories for past autobiographical experiences that we share can influence relationship formation and consolidation with important implications for our mental health. However, little is known about how people's responses to our memories can influence subsequent memory sharing. Previous research examined how operant processes (i.e., punishment with aversive sounds) influence the sharing of memories for specific events from our past. Understanding the (social) mechanisms associated with difficulty sharing specific autobiographical memories is important given the association between these difficulties and a range of psychiatric diagnoses. We investigate the effects of verbal and non-verbal social operants on the willingness to share specific autobiographical memories. Participants shared memories with a confederate who coded their memories as specific or non-specific and responded in either an engaged/attentive, dismissive manner or gave no feedback depending on participants' assigned condition. Participants who were reinforced for sharing specific memories and punished for sharing non-specific memories, were more likely to share specific than non-specific memories compared to those who received no feedback. Reinforcement alone was not sufficient for modifying specificity. The ways that we respond to people when they share memories with us can influence their subsequent willingness to share specific events from their past.

Abstract
We report a case of resectable pancreas tail cancer treated with 2 courses of neoadjuvant therapy which is gemcitabine and S-1 therapy, and pathological diagnosis of the resected specimen revealed pathological complete response. A 56-year- old woman was referred to our hospital because she had back pain after eating for 5 months and her previous abdominal ultrasonography revealed an enlarged pancreatic tail. The tumor size was reduced from 30 mm to 12 mm, and the chemotherapy response was judged to be partial response. The patient underwent distal pancreatectomy, splenectomy, and D2 lymph node dissection. Intraoperative findings showed a pancreatic tail with a depression and surface erythema, thus we also diagnosed the patient as having pancreatic capsular invasion(S1). Postoperative histopathological examination revealed a 10×10 mm area of pancreatic parenchyma, which was replaced by fibrous tissue, with no evidence of active cancer cells. The patient was discharged from the hospital on the 14th after surgery.

Abstract
Primary synovial sarcoma of the spermatic cord is quite rare and has not been reported in Japanese literature. We report a case of primary synovial sarcoma of the spermatic cord and localized dissemination of the tumor in a patient who experienced recurrence of intra-abdominal bleeding 7 years after curative resection of the primary lesion. A 70-year-old man was admitted with disturbance on urination and lower abdominal pain. Computed tomography (CT) of the abdomen revealed two lesions:a 10-cm intrapelvic tumor with hemorrhage and a 4-cm tumor adjacent to the bladder. Curative excision of the tumors was performed. Histological examination revealed that the larger lesion was a primary tumor of the spermatic cord with proliferation of spindle cells in cellular fascicles in a monotonous pattern, which was compatible with histologic findings of monophasic fibrous synovial sarcoma. The smaller lesion was a disseminated tumor. The diagnosis of synovial sarcoma was confirmed by the detection of a SS18 (SYT) -SSX1 fusion gene. After discharge, the patient received adjuvant chemotherapy, including ifosfamide and doxorubicin. No recurrence was evident thereafter. Seven years after the operation, the patient experienced sudden abdominal pain and swelling and was transferred to our hospital. CT showed a 17-cm tumor with massive hemorrhage in the omental bursa. Through catheterization of the superior mesenteric artery, bleeding from a branch of the dorsal pancreatic artery was identified. Because of the difficulty of catheterizing the bleeding branch, he underwent emergency resection of the tumor and partial resection of the colon. Histologic examination and genetic testing revealed that the tumor was a recurrence of the synovial sarcoma. After discharge, the patient received treatment with gemcitabine and docetaxel. However, 7 months after the second surgery, intraperitoneal manifestations recurred. The patient died 14 months after the second resection. This case suggests that curative surgical resection of the primary synovial sarcoma of the spermatic cord contributes to prolonged survival. However, because the recurrence rate of synovial sarcoma is high, multidisciplinary treatment, including chemotherapy and radiotherapy, might be necessary.

Abstract
Contemporary cognitive models of depression propose that cognitive biases for negative information at the level of attention (attention biases; AB) and interpretation (interpretation biases; IB) increase depression risk by promoting maladaptive emotion regulation (ER). So far, empirical support testing interactions between these variables is restricted to non-clinical and clinical adult samples. The aim of the current study was to extend these findings to a sample of children and adolescents. This cross-sectional study included 109 children aged 9–14 years who completed behavioural measures of AB (passive-viewing task) and IB (scrambled sentences task) as well as self-report measures of ER and depressive symptoms. In order to maximize the variance in these outcomes we included participants with a clinical diagnosis of depression as well as non-depressed youth with an elevated familial risk of depression and non-depressed youth with a low familial risk of depression. Path model analysis indicated that all variables (AB, IB, adaptive and maladaptive ER) had a direct effect on depressive symptoms. IB and AB also had significant indirect effects on depressive symptoms via maladaptive and adaptive ER. These findings provide initial support for the role of ER as a mediator between cognitive biases and depressive symptoms and provide the foundations for future experimental and longitudinal studies. In contrast to studies in adult samples, both adaptive as well as maladaptive ER mediated the effect of cognitive biases on depressive symptoms. This suggests potentially developmental differences in the role of ER across the lifespan.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study aimed to elucidate the impact of anatomic location of residual disease (RD) after initial cholecystectomy on survival following re-resection of incidental gallbladder cancer (IGBC). METHODS Patients with pT2 or pT3 gallbladder cancer (36 with IGBC and 171 with non-IGBC) who underwent resection were analyzed. Patients with IGBC were classified as follows according to the anatomic location of RD after initial cholecystectomy: no RD (group 1); RD in the gallbladder bed, stump of the cystic duct, and/or regional lymph nodes (group 2); and RD in the extrahepatic bile duct and/or distant sites (group 3). RESULTS Timing of resection (IGBC vs. non-IGBC) did not affect survival in either multivariate or propensity score matching analysis. RD was found in 16 (44.4%) of the 36 patients with IGBC; R0 resection following re-resection was achieved in 32 patients (88.9%). Overall survival (OS) following re-resection was worse in group 3 (n = 7; 5-year OS, 14.3%) than in group 2 (n = 9; 5-year OS, 55.6%) (p = 0.035) or in group 1 (n = 20; 5-year OS, 88.7%) (p < 0.001). There was no survival difference between groups 1 and 2 (p = 0.256). Anatomic location of RD was independently associated with OS (group 2, HR 2.425, p = 0.223; group 3, HR 9.627, p = 0.024). CONCLUSION The anatomic location of RD independently predicts survival following re-resection, which is effective for locoregional disease control in IGBC, similar to resection for non-IGBC. Not all patients with RD have poor survival following re-resection for IGBC.

Abstract
Background Youth depression is highly prevalent and is related to impairments in academic, social and behavioural functioning. Evidence-based treatments are available, but many young people do not respond or sufficiently recover with first-line options, and a significant proportion experience relapse. Consequently, there is clear scope to enhance intervention in this critical period of early-onset depression. Memory specificity training (MeST) is a low-intensity intervention for depression that targets reduced specificity when recalling memories of the past, a common cognitive vulnerability in depression. This randomised controlled trial will assess the efficacy of adding a computerised version of MeST (c-MeST) to usual care for youth depression. Methods/design Young people aged 15–25 years with a major depressive episode (MDE) will be recruited and randomised to have immediate access to the seven session online c-MeST program in addition to usual care, or to usual care and wait-list for c-MeST. The primary outcomes will be diagnostic status of an MDE and self-reported depressive symptoms assessed at baseline, 1-, 3- and 6-month intervals. Autobiographical memory specificity and other variables thought to contribute to the maintenance of reduced memory specificity and depression will be assessed as mediators of change. Discussion Online provision of c-MeST provides a simple, low-intensity option for targeting a cognitive vulnerability that predicts the persistence of depressive symptoms. If found to be efficacious as an adjunct to usual care for depressed youth, it could be suitable for broader roll-out, as c-MeST is highly accessible and implementation requires only minimal resources due to the online and automated nature of intervention.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Characteristic of the cardinal symptom of anhedonia, people with clinical depression report lower levels of anticipatory pleasure. However, the psychological mechanisms underlying these deficits are poorly understood. This is the first study to assess whether, and to what extent, phenomenological characteristics of episodic future thinking for positive future events are associated with anticipatory pleasure among depressed individuals. METHODS Individuals with a Major Depressive Episode (MDE; N = 117) and without (N = 47) completed ratings scales for depressive symptoms and trait anticipatory and consummatory pleasure. They then provided descriptions of personally-relevant positive future events and rated them for phenomenological characteristics and state anticipatory pleasure. RESULTS Between-groups analysis showed that those with MDE reported lower trait anticipatory and consummatory pleasure. They also simulated future events with less specificity, less detail/vividness, less use of mental imagery, less use of first-person perspective, less plausibility/perceived likelihood of occurring, and reported less associated state anticipatory pleasure. In regression analyses in the depressed group, lower scores for detail/vividness, mental imagery, and personal significance all uniquely predicted lower state anticipatory pleasure. LIMITATIONS Cognitive functioning was not assessed, which may help clarify deficits that underpin these findings. History of previous depressive episodes in the comparison group were not assessed, which may mean the observed between-group effects are underestimated. CONCLUSIONS This study provides further evidence of deficits in episodic future thinking and anticipatory pleasure in depressed individuals. It also establishes links between particular characteristics of episodic future thinking and state anticipatory pleasure, and indicates cognitive targets that may be amenable to intervention in order to reduce anhedonia.

Abstract
Lymph node metastasis has a poor prognosis in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC). We report a case of HCC with lymph node metastasis successfully treated by multidisciplinary treatment. An 81-year-old woman who was followed up for liver cirrhosis received a diagnosis of HCC, which was detected by CT as a solitary tumor 20mm in diameter in the couinaud segment 7 of the liver. She underwent transcatheter arterial chemoembolization(TACE)twice for HCC because of her advanced age and no intention to undergo hepatectomy. Some 12 months later, local recurrence was managed by repeat TACE and paraaortic lymph node metastasis by surgical resection. The patient received radiotherapy for mediastinal nodal disease 6 months after the resection. She remains alive and well without no evidence of disease 84 months after the initial treatment. This case and a review of the literature suggest that multidisciplinary treatment with TACE, surgical resection and radiotherapy may provide a survival benefit for selected patients with HCC with isolated lymph node metastasis.

Abstract
In this retrospective analysis using the Transplant Registry Unified Management Program, we identified 145 patients with human herpesvirus (HHV)-6 encephalitis among 6593 recipients. The cumulative incidences of HHV-6 encephalitis at 100 days after transplantation in all patients, recipients of bone marrow or PBSCs and recipients of cord blood were 2.3%, 1.6% and 5.0%, respectively. Risk factors identified in multivariate analysis were male sex, type of transplanted cells (relative risk in cord blood transplantation, 11.09, P<0.001; relative risk in transplantation from HLA-mismatched unrelated donor, 9.48, P<0.001; vs transplantation from HLA-matched related donor) and GvHD prophylaxis by calcineurin inhibitor alone. At 100 days after transplantation, the overall survival rate was 58.3% and 80.5% among patients with and without HHV-6 encephalitis, respectively (P<0.001). Neuropsychological sequelae remained in 57% of 121 evaluated patients. With both foscarnet and ganciclovir, full-dose therapy (foscarnet ⩾180 mg/kg, ganciclovir ⩾10 mg/kg) was associated with better response rate (foscarnet, 93% vs 74%, P=0.044; ganciclovir, 84% vs 58%, P=0.047). HHV-6 encephalitis is not rare not only in cord blood transplant recipients but also in recipients of HLA-mismatched unrelated donors. In this study, development of HHV-6 encephalitis was associated with a poor survival rate, and neurological sequelae remained in many patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study was designed to evaluate the prognostic value of positive posterior superior pancreaticoduodenal lymph nodes to clarify the need for dissection of these nodes. METHODS A total of 148 patients with gallbladder carcinoma who underwent radical resection including dissection of the posterior superior pancreaticoduodenal nodes were enrolled. The incidence of metastasis and the survival rates among patients with metastasis to each lymph node group were calculated. RESULTS Of the 148 patients, 70 (47%) had nodal disease. The incidences of metastasis in the cystic duct, pericholedochal, retroportal, and hepatic artery node groups, defined as regional nodes in the UICC TNM staging system, ranged from 8.3 to 24.3% with 5-year survival rates of 12.5-46.4% in patients with positive nodes. The incidence of metastasis to the posterior superior pancreaticoduodenal nodes was 12.8% with a 5-year survival rate of 31.6% in patients with positive nodes. Survival after resection was significantly better in patients with distant nodal disease affecting only the posterior superior pancreaticoduodenal nodes (5-year survival, 55.6%) than in patients with distant nodal disease beyond these nodes (5-year survival, 15.0%; p = 0.046), whereas survival after resection was comparable between the former group and patients with regional nodal disease alone (5-year survival, 40.7%; p = 0.426). CONCLUSIONS In gallbladder carcinoma, involvement of the posterior superior pancreaticoduodenal nodes is similar to that of regional nodes in terms of both the incidence of metastasis and the impact on survival. Inclusion of the posterior superior pancreaticoduodenal nodes among the regional nodes should be considered.

Abstract
A 64-year-old woman diagnosed with duodenal adenocarcinoma with duodenal stenosis and obstructive jaundice was referred to our hospital. Computed tomography revealed a tumor measuring 9×6 cm in the second portion of the duodenum that had invaded the liver(S6)and head of the pancreas. After percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage for obstructive jaundice, the patient underwent subtotal stomach-preserving pancreaticoduodenectomy, partial resection of the liver(S6), and partial resection of the colon. Histologic examination showed the primary tumor to be moderately and poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma with hepatic and pancreatic invasion; lymph node metastasis was not found. The patient received S-1 for 1 year and remains alive and well with no evidence of disease 15 months after resection.

Abstract
A 66-year-old woman with pancreatic cancer underwent resection of the pancreatic body and tail. Thirty-seven months after the initial surgery, a tumor was found in S4 of the right lung, for which resection of the middle lobe of the lung was performed. A diagnosis of lung metastasis originating from pancreatic cancer was confirmed based on histological and immunohistopathological assessments. Sixty-seven months after the initial surgery, despite the gemcitabine-based adjuvant chemotherapy, a tumor was detected in S3 of the left lung, for which partial lung resection was performed. Similar to the previous diagnosis, the tumor was diagnosed as lung metastasis of pancreatic cancer on the basis of the pathological findings. After the third operation, despite gemcitabine and S-1 chemotherapy, widespread pulmonary metastasis developed. One hundred and thirty months after the initial surgery, the patient died of respiratory failure due to carcinomatous pleurisy.

Abstract
A 77-year-old woman presented with a high fever. She had a history of resection of the extrahepatic bile duct, cholecystectomy, and hepaticojejunostomy for a congenital choledochal cyst, 23 years previously. Computed tomography showed a tumor measuring 90mm behind the head of the pancreas. This tumor appeared to invade the duodenum and pancreas, although swollen lymph nodes and distant metastasis were not detected. The patient was diagnosed with a carcinoma arising from the intrapancreatic remnant bile duct. A subtotal stomach-preserving pancreaticoduodenectomy and regional lymphadenectomy were performed. The patient remains alive and well with no evidence of disease 11 months after resection.

Abstract
A 78-year-old man with jaundice was diagnosed with perihilar cholangiocarcinoma(Bismuth type I ). After endoscopic biliary drainage for jaundice, a subtotal stomach-preserving pancreaticoduodenectomy was performed. Histologic examination and immunohistochemical staining with chromogranin A, synaptophysin, and CD56 resulted in a diagnosis of small cell carcinoma. Of the 18 dissected lymph nodes, 8 nodes contained a metastatic tumor. Left supraclavicular and paraaortic lymph node metastases were detected by computed tomography 5 months after the resection. He received cisplatin plus irinotecan chemotherapy, and after 2 courses of the chemotherapy, both metastatic lesions were reduced in size. He remains alive and well with no evidence of progressive disease after 6 courses of chemotherapy.

Abstract
A 46-year-old woman underwent right hemihepatectomy, cholecystectomy, and sampling of the hilar lymph nodes for combined hepatocellular and cholangiocarcinoma. She received oral S-1 after hepatectomy. However, her serum level of carcinoembryonic antigen gradually increased, and solitary paraaortic lymph node recurrence was detected on positron emission tomography-computed tomography 12 months after hepatectomy. The patient underwent paraaortic lymph node dissection. Histologic examination revealed solitary paraaortic lymph node metastasis composed of hepatocellular carcinoma. After paraaortic lymph node dissection, she was administered sorafenib, and she remains alive and healthy with no evidence of disease 17 months after the initial resection.

Abstract
A 54-year-old female patient was admitted with obstructive jaundice. The patient was diagnosed with locally advanced unresectable pancreatic cancer of the head with invasion to the super mesenteric artery and the third portion of the duodenum. A biliary- and gastric-enteric bypass surgery was performed, and peritoneal lavage cytology was positive during surgery. After 6 courses of gemcitabine and S-1 combination chemotherapy, the CA19-9 level was normalized and the primary tumor shrank to 79% of its original size. Diagnostic laparoscopy revealed that distant metastasis was not detected and the peritoneal lavage cytology was negative. After additional chemoradiation therapy, a pancreaticoduodenectomy was perfomed. Microscopic investigation revealed that about 60% of the cancer tissue had been replaced by fibrosis and no cancer cells were found at the surgical margin. The patient was alive with no evidence of recurrence 17 months after radical surgery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Noninvasive radiologic evaluation of glioma can facilitate correct diagnosis and detection of malignant transformation. Although positron-emission tomography is considered valuable in the care of patients with gliomas, (18)F-fluorodeoxyglucose and (11)C-methionine have reportedly shown ambiguous results in terms of grading and prognostication. The present study compared the diagnostic and prognostic capabilities of diffusion tensor imaging, FDG, and (11)C-methionine PET in nonenhancing gliomas. MATERIALS AND METHODS Thirty-five consecutive newly diagnosed, histologically confirmed nonenhancing gliomas that underwent both FDG and (11)C-methionine PET were retrospectively investigated (23 grade II and 12 grade III gliomas). Apparent diffusion coefficient, fractional anisotropy, and tumor-to-normal tissue ratios of both FDG and (11)C-methionine PET were compared between grade II and III gliomas. Prognostic values of these parameters were also tested by using progression-free survival. RESULTS Grade III gliomas showed significantly higher average tumor-to-normal tissue and maximum tumor2-to-normal tissue than grade II gliomas in (11)C-methionine (P = .013, P = .0017, respectively), but not in FDG-PET imaging. There was no significant difference in average ADC, minimum ADC, average fractional anisotropy, and maximum fractional anisotropy. (11)C-methionine PET maximum tumor-to-normal tissue ratio of 2.0 was most suitable for detecting grade III gliomas among nonenhancing gliomas (sensitivity, 83.3%; specificity, 73.9%). Among patients not receiving any adjuvant therapy, median progression-free survival was 64.2 ± 7.2 months in patients with maximum tumor-to-normal tissue ratio of <2.0 for (11)C-methionine PET and 18.6 ± 6.9 months in patients with maximum tumor-to-normal tissue ratio of >2.0 (P = .0044). CONCLUSIONS (11)C-methionine PET holds promise for World Health Organization grading and could offer a prognostic imaging biomarker for nonenhancing gliomas.

Abstract
Pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (pNETs) are an uncommon malignancy arising from the neuroendocrine cells of pancreas. Most cases of pNETs present with metastatic disease, but there are few reports in the literature describing pNETs metastasis to the lung and mediastinal lymph nodes [1]. Moreover, although a multimodal treatment including surgical resection and chemotherapy is acceptable for management of pNETs, advanced pNETs still remain a difficult therapeutic challenge [2, 3]. Radiotherapy or combined chemoradiotherapy has not been standard in the treatment of pNETs. An 80-year-old female was admitted to our hospital with cough and anorexia. She had been diagnosed and resected pNETs 8 years ago. Mass shadow was pointed out with chest X-ray, and endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS-TBNA) was performed. Pathological examination revealed neuroendocrine tumors, so the lung mass was considered as metastasis of pNETs. Then, we discussed her treatment at Cancer Board, and radiotherapy was chosen. We hope this case suggests that radiotherapy will be one of the treatment options for metastatic pNETs.

Abstract
To elucidate the impact of pretransplant body mass index (BMI) on the clinical outcome, we performed a retrospective study with registry data including a total of 12 050 patients (age ⩾18 years) who received allogeneic hematopoietic SCT (HSCT) between 2000 and 2010. Patients were stratified as follows: BMI<18.5 kg/m(2), Underweight, n=1791; 18.5⩽BMI<25, Normal, n=8444; 25⩽BMI<30, Overweight, n=1591; BMI⩾30, Obese, n=224. The median age was 45 years (range, 18-77). A multivariate analysis showed that the risk of relapse was significantly higher in the underweight group and lower in the overweight and obese groups compared with the normal group (hazard ratio (HR), 1.16, 0.86, and 0.74, respectively). The risk of GVHD was significantly higher in the overweight group compared with the normal group. The risk of non-relapse mortality (NRM) was significantly higher in the overweight and obese group compared with the normal group (HR 1.19 and HR 1.43, respectively). The probability of OS was lower in the underweight group compared with the normal group (HR 1.10, P=0.018). In conclusion, pretransplant BMI affected the risk of relapse and NRM after allogeneic HSCT. Underweight was a risk factor for poor OS because of an increased risk of relapse. Obesity was a risk factor for NRM.

Abstract
Surgical resection offers the best chance for cure in patients with gallbladder cancer. An aggressive surgical approach to gallbladder cancer has been advocated to minimize morbidity and improve long-term survival. The theoretical mechanism of hepatic spread from gallbladder cancer includes direct extension, hematogenous metastasis, and lymphatic spread. Direct liver invasion and portal tract invasion are the main modes of hepatic spread from resectable gallbladder cancer. Portal tract invasion mainly results from lymphatic spread within the portal tracts. Partial hepatectomy involving the gallbladder bed is a critical part of gallbladder cancer resection and is a safe procedure. The performance of major hepatectomy is justified only if potentially curative resection is feasible. The presence of peripancreatic nodal disease is not a contraindication for radical resection. Combined major hepatectomy and pancreaticoduodenectomy provide survival benefit for some patients with locally advanced gallbladder cancer. Patients with gallbladder cancer with no bile duct involvement are potential candidates for this aggressive procedure, but the mortality rate after this procedure is higher. Patients with advanced gallbladder cancer should be managed at high-volume centers. The combination of surgery with chemotherapy should be established in the management of patients with locally advanced gallbladder cancer.

Abstract
This is the first successful report of a laparoscope-assisted Hassab's operation for esophagogastric varices after living donor liver transplantation (LDLT). A 35-year-old man underwent LDLT using a right lobe graft as an aid for primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) in 2005. Follow-up endoscopic and computed tomography (CT) examinations showed esophagogastric varices with splenomegaly in 2009 that increased (esophageal varices [EV]: locus superior [Ls], moderator enlarged, beady varices [F2], medium in number and intermediate between localized and circumferential red color signs [RC2]; gastric varices [GV]: extension from the cardiac orifice to the fornix [Lg-cf], moderator enlarged, beady varices [F2], absent red color signs [RC0]). A portal venous flow to the esophagogastric varices through a large left gastric vein was also confirmed. Preoperative Child-Pugh was grade B and score was 9. Because these esophagogastric varices had a high risk of variceal bleeding, we proceeded with a laparoscope-assisted Hassab's operation. Operative time was 464 minutes. Blood loss was 1660 mL. A graft liver biopsy was also performed and recurrence of PSC was confirmed histologically. It was suggested that portal hypertension and esophagogastric varices were caused by recurrence of PSC. Postoperative complications were massive ascites and enteritis. Both of them were treated successfully. This patient was discharged on postoperative day 43. Follow-up endoscopic study showed improvement in the esophagogastric varices (esophageal varices [EV]: locus superior [Ls], no varicose appearance [F0], absent red color signs [RC0], gastric varices [GV]: adjacent to the cardiac orifice [Lg-c], no varicose appearance [F0], absent red color signs [RC0]) at 6 months after the operation. We also confirmed the improvement of esophagogastric varices by serial examinations of CT.

Ten healthy volunteers received a single oral dose of 30 mg nadolol with green tea or water after repeated consumption of green tea (700 ml/day) or water for 14 days. Catechin concentrations in green tea and plasma were determined. Green tea markedly decreased the maximum plasma concentration (C(max)) and area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC(0-48)) of nadolol by 85.3% and 85.0%, respectively (P < 0.01), without altering renal clearance of nadolol. The effects of nadolol on systolic blood pressure were significantly reduced by green tea. [(3)H]-Nadolol uptake assays in human embryonic kidney 293 cells stably expressing the organic anion-transporting polypeptides OATP1A2 and OATP2B1 revealed that nadolol is a substrate of OATP1A2 (Michaelis constant (K(m)) = 84.3 μmol/l) but not of OATP2B1. Moreover, green tea significantly inhibited OATP1A2-mediated nadolol uptake (half-maximal inhibitory concentration, IC(50) = 1.36%). These results suggest that green tea reduces plasma concentrations of nadolol possibly in part by inhibition of OATP1A2-mediated uptake of nadolol in the intestine.

Abstract
BACKGROUND High-mobility group box chromosomal protein 1 (HMGB1) has recently been identified as an important mediator of various kinds of acute and chronic inflammation. A method for efficiently removing HMGB1 from the systemic circulation could be a promising therapy for HMGB1-mediated inflammatory diseases. MATERIALS AND METHODS In this study, we produced a new adsorbent material by chemically treating polystyrene fiber. We first determined whether the adsorbent material efficiently adsorbed HMGB1 in vitro using a bovine HMGB1 solution and a plasma sample from a swine model of acute liver failure. We then constructed a column by embedding fabric sheets of the newly developed fibers into a cartridge and tested the ability of the column to reduce plasma HMGB1 levels during a 4-hour extracorporeal hemoperfusion in a swine model of acute liver failure. RESULTS The in vitro adsorption test of the new fiber showed high performance for HMGB1 adsorption (96% adsorption in the bovine HMGB1 solution and 94% in the acute liver failure swine plasma, 2 h incubation at 37°C; p < 0.05 vs. incubation with no adsorbent). In the in vivo study, the ratio of the HMGB1 concentration at the outlet versus the inlet of the column was significantly lower in swine hemoperfused with the newly developed column (53 and 61% at the beginning and end of perfusion, respectively) than in those animals hemoperfused with the control column (94 and 93% at the beginning and end of perfusion, respectively; p < 0.05). Moreover, the normalized plasma level of HMGB1 was significantly lower during perfusion with the new column than with the control column (p < 0.05 at 1, 2, and 3 h after initiation of perfusion). CONCLUSION These data suggest that the newly developed column has the potential to effectively adsorb HMGB1 during hemoperfusion in swine.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Interleukin (IL)-33 is a novel member of the IL-1 cytokine family and a ligand for the orphan IL-1 family receptor ST2. The IL-33 induces T helper 2-type inflammatory responses and is considered to play a crucial rule in allergic inflammations, such as asthma and atopic dermatitis. However, the role of IL-33 and its receptor ST2 in allergic rhinitis remains unknown. OBJECTIVE We investigated expression of IL-33 and ST2 in the nasal epithelium of patients with allergic rhinitis and the mechanisms of the production of cytokines/chemokines induced by treatment with IL-33 using normal human nasal epithelial cells (HNECs) in vitro. METHODS Expression of IL-33 and ST2 in normal and allergic rhinitis nasal mucosa was evaluated by reverse transcription- and real-time polymerase chain reactions and immunohistochemical methods. The IL-33 in serum, and IL-8 and GM-CSF were measured by ELISA. For in vitro experiments, HNECs in primary culture were used. RESULTS The IL-33 levels in the sera of patients with allergic rhinitis were significantly higher than that in normal controls. Expression of IL-33 and ST2 was significantly elevated in the epithelium from patients with allergic rhinitis. The IL-33 mRNA in HNECs in vitro was significantly induced by treatment with IFN-γ and the toll-like receptor 9 ligand ODN2006. The IL-33-induced production of IL-8 and GM-CSF from HNECs in vitro was significantly suppressed by corticosteroid treatment and distinct signal transduction inhibitors of ERK, p38 MAPK, JNK, NF-κB and epidermal growth factor receptor. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE The IL-33 and its receptor ST2 play important roles in allergic rhinitis. The IL-33-mediated inflammatory responses via ST2 are regulated by distinct signalling pathways in HNECs and the IL-33/ST2 pathway may provide new therapeutic targets for allergic rhinitis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND High-mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) is a monocyte-derived late-acting inflammatory mediator, which is released in conditions such as shock, tissue injury and endotoxin-induced lethality. In this study, we determined the plasma and hepatic tissue levels of HMGB1 in patients with acute liver failure (ALF). PATIENTS AND METHODS We determined the plasma levels of HMGB1 and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) in 7 healthy volunteers (HVs), 40 patients with liver cirrhosis (LC), 37 patients with chronic hepatitis (CH), 18 patients with severe acute hepatitis (AH), and 14 patients with fulminant hepatitis (FH). The 14 patients with FH were divided into two subgroups depending upon the history of plasma exchange (PE) before their plasma sample collection. The hepatic levels of HMGB1 were measured in tissue samples from 3 patients with FH who underwent living-donor liver transplantation and from 3 healthy living donors. Hepatic tissue samples were also subjected to immunohistochemical examination for HMGB1. RESULTS The plasma levels of HMGB1 (ng/ml) were higher in patients with liver diseases, especially in FH patients with no history of PE, than in HVs (0.3 ± 0.3 in HVs, 4.0 ± 2.0 in LC, 5.2 ± 2.6 in CH, 8.6 ± 4.8 in severe AH, 7.8 ± 2.7 in FH with a history of PE, and 12.5 ± 2.6 in FH with no history of PE, p < 0.05 in each comparison). There was a strong and statistically significant relationship between the mean plasma HMGB1 level and the logarithm of the mean AST level (R = 0.900, p < 0.05). The hepatic tissue levels of HMGB1 (ng/mg tissue protein) were lower in patients with FH than in healthy donors (539 ± 116 in FH vs. 874 ± 81 in healthy donors, p < 0.05). Immunohistochemical staining for HMGB1 was strong and clear in the nuclei of hepatocytes in liver sections from healthy donors, but little staining in either nuclei or cytoplasm was evident in specimens from patients with FH. CONCLUSION We confirmed that plasma HMGB1 levels were increased in patients with ALF. Based on a comparison between HMGB1 contents in normal and ALF livers, it is very likely that HMGB1 is released from injured liver tissue.

Abstract
FeRh thin films were irradiated with a 10 MeV iodine ion microbeam to produce micrometre-scale ferromagnetic microstructures by modifying the local magnetic character from antiferromagnetism to ferromagnetism using ion-microbeam irradiation. Two-dimensional magnetic dot arrays of dimensions ∼2 µm × 4 µm as well as 10 µm × 10 µm were successfully produced on the FeRh surface, which was confirmed by magnetic force microscopy (MFM). The results of photoemission electron microscopy (PEEM) combined with X-ray magnetic circular dichroism reveal that the easy axis of the magnetization of the ion-beam-irradiated ferromagnetism in the FeRh thin films lies in the film planes along the <001> direction of the MgO substrates.
