Abstract
PURPOSE We compared the clinical features of patients with biliary atresia (BA) associated with a bleeding tendency (BT) at the time of the diagnosis with those of patients without a bleeding tendency (NBT). METHODS The patients' background characteristics, age in days at the first visit, Kasai portoenterostomy (KPE), and postoperative course were retrospectively analyzed. RESULTS Nine of the 93 BA patients (9.7%) showed a BT, including 7 with intracranial hemorrhaging (ICH), 1 with gastrointestinal bleeding, and 1 with a prothrombin time (PT) of 0%. The age at the first visit was 62 ± 12 days old for BT patients and 53 ± 27 days old for NBT patients (p = 0.4); the age at KPE was 77 ± 9 days old for BT patients and 65 ± 24 days old for NBT patients (p = 0.2); the time from the first visit to surgery was 13 ± 7 days for BT patients and 11 ± 10 days for NBT patients (p = 0.5); and the native liver survival rate was 56% for BT patients and 58% for NBT patients (p = 1), with no significant difference in any of the parameters. The neurological outcomes of survivors of ICH were favorable. CONCLUSIONS Appropriate BT correction allowed early KPE even after ICH, resulting in native liver survival rates comparable to those of NBT patients without significant neurological complications.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We evaluated the effect of recombinant human hepatocyte growth factor (rh-HGF) on intestinal adaptation in a rat model of short-bowel syndrome (SBS). METHODS Sprague-Dawley rats underwent jugular vein catheterization for continuous total parenteral nutrition (TPN) and 90 % small bowel resection. The animals were divided into 3 groups: TPN/SBS (control group, n = 7), TPN/SBS/intravenous recombinant human hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) (0.3 mg/kg/day) (HGF group, n = 7), and TPN/SBS/intravenous c-Met inhibitor (0.3 mg/kg/day) (anti-HGF group, n = 5). On day 7, rats were euthanized and histologically evaluated. Serum diamine oxidase (S-DAO) levels were evaluated using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The nutrient transporter and glucagon-like peptide-2 (GLP-2) receptor expression were evaluated using real-time polymerase chain reaction. RESULTS The jejunal and ileal villus heights were higher and the S-DAO concentrations significantly higher (p = 0.04) in the HGF group than in the control and anti-HGF groups. The sodium-dependent glucose transporter 1 expression in the HGF group was significantly higher than in the control group and significantly suppressed in the anti-HGF group (p < 0.01). The peptide transporter 1 expression in the jejunum was higher in the HGF group than in the other groups and significantly suppressed in the anti-HGF group (p < 0.01). The GLP-2 receptor expression in the jejunum was higher in the HGF group than the other groups, and it was significantly suppressed in the anti-HGF group (p < 0.01). These jejunal results regarding nutrient transporter an GLP-2 receptor were not found in the ileum. CONCLUSIONS The administration of rh-HGF appears to be more effective in the jejunum than in the ileum. TYPE OF STUDY Experimental Research. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE N/A.

Abstract
PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to investigate the autophagy associated with apoptosis in hepatic damage in the short bowel syndrome rat model. METHODS SD rats underwent jugular vein catheterization for continuous total parenteral nutrition (TPN) and 90% small bowel resection. Animals were divided into two groups: TPN plus SBS (Control group) or TPN plus SBS plus intravenous administration of HGF (HGF group). On day 7, the rats were harvested, and hepatocellular injury was evaluated. RESULTS In an SBS rat model, hepatic steatosis and lobular inflammation were histologically suppressed in the HGF group (p < 0.01). The expression of tumor necrosis factor-α in the HGF group tend to be higher than that in the control group (p = 0.13). The gene expression of transforming Growth Factor-β in the HGF group was suppressed compared to the control group (p < 0.01). HGF treatment may have an antiapoptotic effect via the intrinsic pathway by caspase 9. Protein expressions of Rubicon (p = 0.03) and p62 (p < 0.01) in the HGF group were found to have increased compared to those in the control group. CONCLUSION The inhibitory effect of HGF on hepatic steatosis remains unclear, and further studies focusing on the mechanisms of fat accumulation are needed.

Abstract
PURPOSE Anovestibular fistula (AVF) is the most common type of ARM in female patients. The present study investigated changes over time in the postoperative defecation function of female patients with AVF. METHODS Patient data were collected from 1984 to 2021. Eighty-eight female patients with AVF were enrolled. Patients' characteristics and the long-term outcome of defecation function were reviewed and analyzed retrospectively. The bowel function was evaluated according to the Japan Society of ARM Study Group evacuation score (ES). RESULTS Thirty-eight patients underwent anal transposition (AT), and 8 underwent anterior sagittal anorectoplasty (ASARP). The total evacuation score (ES) in AVF patients reached "excellent" at nine years old, regardless of the operative procedure. The constipation scores with AT showed better improvement than those with ASARP, but soiling scores in the ASARP group showed better improvement than those in the AT group. The postoperative complications did not affect the postoperative bowel function in AVF patients. CONCLUSION Most patients with AVF eventually achieved a satisfactory total ES. Given the difference in defecation score transition depending on the operative procedure or postoperative complications, it may be important to perform long-term defecation management via surgical procedures.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Sudden death in the bathtub occurs relatively frequently in Japan, particularly among elderly people. We hypothesize that sudden death in epilepsy occurring in the bathtub (SDEPB) can be distinguished from sudden death in nonepilepsy occurring in the bathtub (SDnonEPB), but is identical to sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP). METHODS Tokyo Medical Examiner's Office conducts postmortem examinations for all sudden and unexpected deaths in Tokyo. Clinical, social, and autopsy findings of 43 SDEPB were compared with 76 SDnonEPB, 50 SUDEP outside the bathtub, and Japanese forensic autopsy data as controls. RESULTS Extension of the leg(s) outside the bathtub was seen in 33% of SDEPB, but none of SDnonEPB. Sitting position was seen less frequently in SDEPB (37%) than in SDnonEPB (64%). Lung weight and pleural effusion volume were significantly lower in SDEPB than in SDnonEPB. Age at death in SDEPB was significantly younger than that in SDnonEPB. Sudden death in epilepsy occurring in the bathtub showed no differences in lung weight and pleural effusion volume from SUDEP. Living with family was more frequent in SDEPB (73%) than in SUDEP (48%). Few antiepileptic drugs, infrequent seizures, and low rate of mental retardation were identical between SDEPB and SUDEP. Lung weight was significantly heavier in all three groups than in age- and sex- matched autopsy controls. CONCLUSIONS Leg extension outside the bathtub, lower lung weight, and absence of pleural effusion distinguish SDEPB from SDnonEPB in elderly people. Sudden death in epilepsy occurring in the bathtub may represent a form of SUDEP occurring in the bathtub, rather than drowning despite submergence in the bathtub at discovery. Conditions for bathing require careful attention from physicians and relatives, even for patients with epilepsy with few medications and infrequent seizures, and without mental retardation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Epileptic spasms (ES) often become drug-resistant. To reveal the electrophysiological difference between children with ES (ES+) and without ES (ES-), we compared the occurrence rate (OR) of high-frequency oscillations (HFOs) and the modulation index (MI) of coupling between slow and fast oscillations. In ES+, we hypothesized that (1) pathological HFOs are more widely distributed and (2) slow oscillations show stronger coupling with pathological HFOs than in ES-. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed 24 children with drug-resistant multilobar onset epilepsy, who underwent intracranial video electroencephalography prior to multilobar resections. We measured the OR of HFOs and determined the electrodes with a high rate of HFOs by cluster analysis. We calculated MI, which reflects the degree of coupling between HFO (ripple/fast ripple [FR]) amplitude and 5 different frequency bands of delta and theta activities (0.5-1 Hz, 1-2 Hz, 2-3 Hz, 3-4 Hz, 4-8 Hz). RESULTS In ES+ (n = 10), the OR(FRs) , the number of electrodes with high-rate FRs, and the MI(FRs & 3-4 Hz) in all electrodes were significantly higher than in ES- (n = 14). In both the ES+ and ES- groups, MI(ripples/FRs & 3-4 Hz) was the highest among the 5 frequency bands. Within the good seizure outcome group, the OR(FRs) and the MI(FRs & 3-4 Hz) in the resected area in ES+ were significantly higher than in ES- (OR[FRs] , P = .04; MI[FRs & 3-4 Hz] , P = .04). SIGNIFICANCE In ES+, the larger number of high-rate FR electrodes indicates more widespread epileptogenicity than in ES-. High values of OR(FRs) and MI(FRs & 3-4 Hz) in ES+ compared to ES- are a signature of the severity of epileptogenicity. We proved that ES+ children who achieved seizure freedom following multilobar resections exhibited strong coupling between slow oscillations and FRs.

Abstract
The objective of this study was to identify associations between known polymorphisms in genes related to adipose tissue and sexual precocity in Nellore cattle. A total of 1689 precocious and non-precocious heifers belonging to farms participating in Conexão Delta G breeding program were studied. SNPs from the Illumina High-Density Bovine SNP BeadChip were used. This chip contains 777,000 SNPs located within the region of the candidate genes at a distance of up to 5 kb, considering that linkage disequilibrium (LD) exists at this distance. Linear models were used for statistical analysis. The fastPHASE and GenomeStudio programs were used for haplotype reconstruction and LD analysis based on r2 statistics. Fifty-seven candidate genes and 443 SNPs were analyzed: among the latter, 370 SNPs formed 83 haplotypes, while the remaining SNPs were studied separately. Statistical analysis showed that only three haplotypes, one haplotype consisting of two SNPs located in the FABP4 gene and two haplotypes consisting of four and two SNPs located in the PPP3CA gene, had a significant effect on sexual precocity at P < 0.05. It can be concluded that the FABP4 and PPP3CA genes influence sexual precocity and may therefore be used in selection programs designed to improve sexual precocity in Nellore cattle.
