Abstract
Picky eaters are at risk of an unbalanced diet, which is critical for women of reproductive age. A sensory profile, which is a potential factor in picky eating, has not been well researched. This study assessed the differences in sensory profile and dietary intake according to the picky eating status among female Japanese undergraduate college students. Cross-sectional data were obtained from the Ochanomizu Health Study conducted in 2018. The questionnaire included items regarding demographic characteristics, picky eating status, sensory profile, and dietary intake. Sensory profile was assessed using the Adult/Adolescent Sensory Profile questionnaire, and dietary intakes were calculated using a brief-type self-administered diet history questionnaire. Among the 111 participants, 23% were picky eaters and 77% were non-picky eaters. The age, body mass index and household status did not differ between the picky eaters and non-picky eaters. Being a picky eater was associated with higher scores on sensory sensitivity and sensation avoiding, and lower thresholds for taste and smell, touch, and auditory stimuli than being a non-picky eater. Of the picky eaters, 58% and 100% were at a high risk for folate and iron deficiencies, respectively, compared to 35% and 81% of non-picky eaters. Nutrition education for picky eaters in reproductive age to increase vegetable dishes comfortably in their diet is suggested to prevent anemia during their future pregnancy.

Abstract
Persistent radicals, which are generated from 2-oxindole or benzofuranone dimers, are useful tools for designing the radical-based cross-coupling reaction to provide molecules containing a quaternary carbon. The persistent radical is accessible from both the dimer and monomer; however, the reactivity difference between these substrates for the oxidative cross-coupling reaction is not fully understood, most likely because of the mechanistic complexity. Here, we present details of an aerobic cross-dehydrogenative coupling (CDC) reaction using various monomers and catechols. UV-Vis analysis and mechanistic control experiments showed that the monomer is less reactive than the dimer under aerobic conditions. Our Pd(II)-BINAP-μ-hydroxo complex significantly improved the reactivity of the monomers for the aerobic CDC reaction with catechols, yielding results comparable to those of the corresponding dimer. The procedure, which enables the generation of the persistent radical in situ, is particularly useful when employing the monomer that is not readily converted to the corresponding dimer.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) are at high risk of lethal arrhythmias, and implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICD) are widely used for prevention of sudden cardiac death (SCD). Apical HCM is a phenotype variant of HCM, with hypertrophy predominantly affecting apex, that was initially described 30 years ago. Apical HCM patients may have different clinical prognosis compared with other subsets of HCM. In previous studies, apical HCM patients seem to have a more benign prognosis than other types of HCM. However, little is known about the long-term outcomes of apical HCM patients and there are many unclear points. Moreover, there are few reports about the clinical prognosis in apical HCM patients with an ICD.
Objective
The aim of this study is to identify the difference between the prognosis of apical and the other types of HCM patients with an ICD.
Methods
We retrospectively analyzed the database of our ICD clinic. All subjects underwent ICD implantation between October 2006 and September 2018. We classified HCM patients into LV outflow tract obstruction (LVOTO) and midventricular obstruction (MVO), apical HCM and other non-obstructive types. We divided all the patients into apical and other types of HCM, and examined their background, incidence of appropriate ICD therapies, hospitalization for heart failure, electrical storm and death.
Results
A total of consecutive 64 Japanese HCM patients with an ICD (follow-up period, 86±24 months; age, 65±14 years; male sex, 83%; left ventricular ejection fraction, 56±14%; LV max wall-thickness, 19±7mm; LV apical aneurysm, 9.4%; 5-year risk of SCD, 4.4±2.1) were enrolled in this study. We classified them into 14 apical HCM and 50 other types of HCM patients. The clinical characteristics and major clinical events of these patients are shown in the Table 1. During the follow-up periods, there were no significant differences in the incidence of electrical storm, hospitalization for heart failure and death between the 2 groups (p=0.11; p=0.60; p=0.39). Appropriate ICD therapies occurred in 6 of 14 (43%) patients with apical HCM and 5 of 50 (10%) patients with other types of HCM (p=0.010). The risk factors of patients with apical HCM patients are shown in Table 2.
Conclusions
Appropriate ICD therapy was more prevalent in patients with apical HCM, compared to patients with other types of HCM. Aggressive intervention such as catheter ablation for ventricular tachycardia and ventricular fibrillation may be considered in patients with apical HCM and higher score of 5-year risk of SCD. Further studies are needed to clarify the manifestations and long-term outcome of apical HCM patients.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
For decades, ICD is a well-established therapy for improving prognosis of structural heart disease with severe cardiac dysfunction, and ICD for primary prophylaxis against sudden cardiac death were routinely provided. However, long-term prognosis and clinical course are different in each individual patient with an ICD, and it is moreover unclear what kind of factors might have influences on their clinical outcomes.
Purpose
The aim of this study is to clarify long-term prognosis and predictors of future major adverse cardiac events (MACEs) in HFrEF patients with an ICD as primary prophylaxis in Japanese population.
Methods
We retrospectively analyzed our ICD database. Patients underwent primary prophylactic ICD implantation from 2006 to 2020 at our institute and met the criteria of ICD recommendation of the latest Japanese guideline. Its requirements are receiving optimal medication therapy, symptomatic heart failure (New York Heart Association classification II or greater), and severe cardiac dysfunction (left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) is 35% or less). Additionally, prior NSVT is considered Class I ICD recommendation. In the case of ischemic cardiomyopathy (ICM), ICD implantation was done at least 40 days after myocardial infarction and at least 90 days after revascularization. MACEs were defined as composite outcome of cardiovascular death, heart failure hospitalization, and appropriate ICD therapies.
Results
A total of 148 consecutive patients were enrolled (male, 120 (81%); age, 62.1±11.8 years; LVEF, 23.0±5.86%; left ventricular end-diastolic diameter (LVDd), 67.6±9.26mm; paroxysmal or persistent atrial fibrillation (AF), 38 (26%); NSVT, 113 (76%); use of class III antiarrhythmic drugs, 48 (32%); ICM, 49 (33%); cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT), 63 (43%)). One hundred twenty patients (81%) were programmed with a shock-only zone over 200 beats per minute. The median follow-up duration was 58.5 months. Among those 148 patients, MACEs were occurred to 60 patients (41%). As a result of dividing all patients into two groups by the occurrence of MACE, LVEF and LVDd were worse in MACE(+) group, whereas, MACE(−) had greater number of co morbidities. The results of cox-regression analysis showed LVDd (HR: 1.07, 95% CI: 1.03–1.12, p<0.001), AF (HR: 2.88, 95% CI: 1.56–5.31, p<0.001) and ICM (HR: 1.78, 95% CI: 1.00–3.16, p=0.049) were the independent predictors of MACEs (Table). However, initial ICD programming was not related to the occurrence of MACE.
Conclusions
The incidence of MACEs in patients with an ICD and severe HFrEF was substantially high in this Japanese population. Etiology of ICM, left ventricle size, and AF were the potential risk factors for future MACEs.

Abstract
Background Body mass index (BMI) shows strong continuity over childhood and adolescence and high childhood BMI is the strongest predictor of adult obesity. Genetic factors strongly contribute to this continuity, but it is still poorly known how their contribution changes over childhood and adolescence. Thus, we used the genetic twin design to estimate the genetic correlations of BMI from infancy to adulthood and compared them to the genetic correlations of height. Methods We pooled individual level data from 25 longitudinal twin cohorts including 38,530 complete twin pairs and having 283,766 longitudinal height and weight measures. The data were analyzed using Cholesky decomposition offering genetic and environmental correlations of BMI and height between all age combinations from 1 to 19 years of age. Results The genetic correlations of BMI and height were stronger than the trait correlations. For BMI, we found that genetic correlations decreased as the age between the assessments increased, a trend that was especially visible from early to middle childhood. In contrast, for height, the genetic correlations were strong between all ages. Age-to-age correlations between environmental factors shared by co-twins were found for BMI in early childhood but disappeared altogether by middle childhood. For height, shared environmental correlations persisted from infancy to adulthood. Conclusions Our results suggest that the genes affecting BMI change over childhood and adolescence leading to decreasing age-to-age genetic correlations. This change is especially visible from early to middle childhood indicating that new genetic factors start to affect BMI in middle childhood. Identifying mediating pathways of these genetic factors can open possibilities for interventions, especially for those children with high genetic predisposition to adult obesity.

Abstract
Sensory symptoms are common in autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Previous studies have shown a positive correlation between sensory symptoms and internalizing problems; however, the role of the suffering due to sensory symptoms is not well understood. In the present study, we hypothesized that the relationship between sensory symptoms and internalizing problems in children is mediated by children’s and surrounding people’s suffering due to sensory symptoms. Parents of 113 students aged 6–15 years with and without ASD completed questionnaires about their children’s autistic traits, sensory symptoms, suffering due to sensory symptoms, and internalizing problems. The results showed that autistic traits and sensory symptoms were distributed as a continuum throughout children with and without ASD. Therefore, we investigated the relationship among variables in children with and without ASD attending regular classes. Structural equation modeling indicated that those who scored higher on sensory symptoms demonstrated greater suffering due to sensory symptoms as predictors of internalizing problems. Our findings provide evidence for developing a support system that specifically reduces suffering due to sensory symptoms, especially for students in regular classes.

Abstract
Background Sensory differences are related to the autistic traits, and previous studies have shown a positive correlation between sensory differences and internalizing problems. In this study, we hypothesized that sensory differences and suffering due to sensory differences mediates the relationships between autistic traits and internalizing problems. Methods A total of 346 female Japanese university students completed questionnaires regarding their autistic traits, suffering due to sensory differences, and internalizing problems. Moreover, 114 participants completed a questionnaire related to sensory differences. Results Autistic traits were correlated with Low Registration and Sensation Avoiding. These sensory differences were also correlated with suffering due to sensory differences and internalizing problems. Moreover, path analysis indicated that the higher the suffering due to Low Registration and Sensation Avoiding was, the greater the internalizing problems in those who showed these sensory differences. Conclusions Female university students with serious suffering due to sensory differences may need support in managing their suffering and internalizing problems. Further research will help suggest support that these people require, at school and elsewhere.

Abstract
Chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV) is one of the most serious adverse effects of cancer therapy. Cancer patients frequently use acid suppressants (AS) for palliation of gastrointestinal symptoms associated with malignancy and/or anticancer therapy. AS are suggested as an additional option for CINV management in several antiemetic guidelines, although their efficacy remains unknown. The aim of this study was to determine whether AS administration affects CINV incidence in cisplatin and gemcitabine treatment for biliary tract cancer. The primary endpoint was to evaluate whether AS administration was associated with the incidence of all-grade nausea in the first administration by logistic analysis. The secondary endpoints were to assess factors associated with anorexia. Prophylactic antiemetics were based on current guidelines. Nausea occurred in 34.2% of patients (grade 1, 31.7%; grade 2, 2.5%). Patients exhibiting vomiting and anorexia represented 4.2% and 39.1%, respectively, without grade 3/4 symptoms. Multivariate analysis suggested that the independent risk factors for nausea as female sex, and no- or less-alcohol drinking habit and regular narcotics administration were associated with anorexia. In contrast, AS administration was not associated with nausea and anorexia incidence (odds ratio, 95% confidence interval: 1.43, 0.64-3.23; P =0.38 for nausea, 1.62, 0.71-3.68; P =0.25 for anorexia). In conclusion, we found that AS administration is not associated with CINV incidence, and female sex is a risk factor for nausea, and non-alcohol drinking habits and regular narcotic use are factors associated with anorexia in cisplatin and gemcitabine treatment for biliary tract cancer. We should correctly administer AS depending on the patient's situation. Successful CINV management needs effective monitoring and administration of prophylactic antiemetics and counter-measure medicines for patients at risk.

Background
Right ventricular fractional area change (RVFAC) as right ventricular function is recently referred as an independent predictor of sudden cardiac death (SCD). The purpose of this study was to evaluate the association of RVFAC and appropriate ICD therapy in order to determine the cut-off value of RVFAC.
Methods
Consecutive patients who underwent initial ICD implantation for any diseases except for non-dilated phase hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and channelopathy were retrospectively enrolled from 2012 to 2018. Primary endpoint was an initial appropriate ICD therapy. Transthoracic echocardiographic parameters before ICD implantation were evaluated by one physician and one echocardiologist to be validated. Right ventricular dimensions and function were also measured to be analyzed.
Results
In total, 172 patients (60.3±13.6 years, 131 males) including 63 ischemic cardiomyopathy were enrolled. Ninety patients received an ICD as a secondary prophylaxis. Mean LVEF and RVFAC were 38.3±14.3% and 35.8±8.82%, respectively. There was little correlation between RVFAC and LVEF (correlation coefficient =0.274). Regarding appropriate ICD therapy events, the best cut-off value of RVFAC was 34.8%. The odds ratio of low RVFAC was 2.731 (95%CI: 1.456-5.121, P=0.00174). Secondary prophylactic cohort with low RVFAC showed highest incidence of appropriate ICD therapy as shown in the figure. In multivariate analysis, only low RVFAC is an independent predictor of appropriate ICD therapy (HR: 3.53, 95%CI:1.78- 6.99, P=0.0003).
Conclusion
Low RVFAC seemed independently associated with increased appropriate ICD therapy.

Background
Non-sustained ventricular tachycardia (NSVT) is frequent phenomenon in severe heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) patients, and causes any negative impacts on such patients. In the Japanese Circulation Society (JCS) and Japanese Heart Rhythm Society (JHRS) guidelines, NSVT is regarded as a major component of indication for implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) implantation. However, the long-term prognostic significance of NSVT in severe HFrEF is incompletely resolved.
Purpose
The aim of this study is to investigate the relation between prior NSVT episodes and major adverse cardiac events (MACEs) in HFrEF patients with an ICD as primary prophylaxis.
Methods
We retrospectively analyzed our ICD database. Patients underwent primary prophylactic ICD implantation from 2007 to 2018 following ICD recommendation of JCS and JHRS guidelines. Patients met the criteria of receiving optimal medication therapy, symptomatic heart failure (New York Heart Association classification II or greater), and severe cardiac dysfunction (left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) is 35% or less). In the case of ischemic cardiomyopathy (ICM), implantation of ICD was done at least 40 days after myocardial infarction and at least 90 days after revascularization. Incidence of NSVT episodes were identified through daily electrocardiogram (ECG), Holter ECG or monitor ECG in the hospital. MACEs were defined as composite outcome of cardiovascular death, heart failure hospitalization, and appropriate ICD therapies.
Results
A total of 148 consecutive patients were enrolled (male, 120 (81%); age, 62.1±11.8 years; LVEF, 23.0±5.86%; left ventricular end-diastolic diameter (LVDd), 67.6±9.26mm; paroxysmal or persistent atrial fibrillation (AF), 38 (26%); NSVT, 113 (76%); use of class III antiarrhythmic drugs, 48 (32%); ICM, 49 (33%); cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT), 63 (43%)). The median follow-up duration was 58.5 months. As a result of comparison of the Kaplan-Meier curve between NSVT group (n=113) and non-NSVT group (n=35), cardiovascular death, heart failure hospitalization, and appropriate ICD therapy were not statistically different (Figures). Of those, MACEs were occurred to 60 patients (41%). The results of cox-regression analysis showed LVDd (HR: 1.07, 95% CI: 1.03-1.12, p<0.001), AF (HR: 2.88, 95% CI: 1.56-5.31, p<0.001) and ICM (HR: 1.78, 95% CI: 1.00-3.16, p=0.049) were the independent predictors of MACEs, however NSVT was not (Table).
Conclusions
In this Japanese population, the long-term prognosis of severe HFrEF patients is considered to be comparable regardless of prior NSVT episodes. However, the incidence of MACEs in patients with severe HFrEF after ICD implantation was substantially high. ICM, left ventricle size, and atrial fibrillation were the potential risk factors for MACEs as the previous reports showed.

Abstract
Courtesy stigma, which arises from close connections to people with stigmatized characteristics, negatively affects interpersonal relations. This study aimed to evaluate courtesy stigma and the adaptation process of parents of children with Down syndrome based on semi-structured interviews with 23 Japanese parents. The interview themes were (a) negatively perceived interpersonal experiences and coping strategies; (b) information disclosure and others' responses; and (c) positively perceived interpersonal experiences. The interview data were transcribed and analyzed based on a grounded theory approach. The results suggested that parents perceived and experienced multidimensional courtesy stigma, and they used various coping strategies categorized in combinations of passive-active and internal-external. All parents disclosed information about their child's diagnosis to others, and reverse disclosure (i.e., revealing own relations with people with disabilities) was characteristically observed thereafter. Through active interaction and reflection, the parents cultivated social relationships, compassion, world views, and community involvement, which led to the transcendent stage. However, internal conflict as a mediator between people with and without Down syndrome re-emerged even after achieving the transcendent stage. These findings could help to develop interventions in genetic counseling for parents to deal with interpersonal relationship difficulties.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Prophylactic use of implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs) to prevent sudden cardiac death (SCD) is widely spread all over the world in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). Apical HCM is a phenotype variant of HCM, with hypertrophy predominantly affecting apex, that was initially described 30 years ago. Apical HCM patients may have different clinical prognosis compared with other subsets of HCM. In previous studies, apical HCM patients seem to have a more benign prognosis than other types of HCM. However, little is known about the long-term outcomes of apical HCM and there are many unclear points. Moreover, there are few reports about the clinical prognosis in apical HCM patients with an ICD.
Objective
The aim of this study is to identify the difference between the prognosis of apical and the other HCM patients with an ICD.
Methods
We retrospectively analyzed the database of our ICD clinic. All subjects had been implanted with an ICD from October 2006 to August 2017. We classified HCM patients into LV outflow tract obstruction (LVOTO) and midventricular obstruction (MVO), apical HCM and other non-obstructive types. We divided all the patients into apical and other types of HCM, and examined their background, incidence of appropriate ICD therapies, hospitalization for heart failure, electrical storm and death.
Results
A total of consecutive 62 Japanese HCM patients with an ICD (follow-up period, 86±25 months; age, 67±14 years; male sex, 85%; left ventricular ejection fraction, 57±12%; LV max wall-thickness, 19±5mm; LV apical aneurysm, 9.7%; HCM Risk-SCD, 4.4±3.0) were enrolled in this study. We classified them into 14 apical HCM and 48 other types of HCM patients. The clinical characteristics and major events of these patients are shown in the Figure. During the follow-up periods, there were no significant differences in the incidence of hospitalization for heart failure, electrical storm and death between the 2 groups (p=0.40; p=0.22; p=0.23). Appropriate therapies occurred in 5 of 14 (36%) patients with apical HCM and 4 of 48 (8.3%) patients with other types of HCM (p=0.022).
Conclusions
Appropriate ICD therapy was more prevalent in patients with apical HCM, compared to patients with other types of HCM. However, the incidences of hospitalization for heart failure, electrical storm and death were not significantly different between two groups.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common arrhythmia. AF-related stroke tends to be more severe, and the mortality rate is higher compared with stroke without AF. Recent cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIEDs) have led to an improvement in the early detection of AF episodes. Previous studies showed that AF episodes detected by CIEDs are associated with ischemic stroke. However, little is known about the relationship between new-onset AF and ischemic stroke events in Japanese patients with CIEDs who have no prior AF and take no anticoagulant therapy. ESC guidelines for the management of AF recommend the use of CHA2DS2-VASc score as class I to predict the risk of ischemic stroke in patients with AF. However, the validity of the CHA2DS2-VASc and HAS-BLED scores to predict ischemic stroke and major bleeding events in patients without AF remains unclear.
Objective
The purpose of this study was to identify the incidence of ischemic stroke and major bleeding events in CIEDs patients without AF and assess the validity of CHA2DS2-VASc and HAS-BLED scores in this population.
Methods
We retrospectively analyzed the database of our CIEDs clinic. Every 6 months, CIEDs were checked using remote monitoring system. We examined the characteristics and incidence of ischemic stroke and bleeding events. In addition, we investigated the relationship between CHA2DS2-VASc and HAS-BLED scores and the incidence of these events.
Results
We enrolled 620 consecutive patients who were followed up at our CIED clinic. We excluded patients who had a history of AF or had received anticoagulant therapies, 348 patients (follow-up period, 65±58 months; age, 70±16 years; male sex; 64%; defibrillator, 55%) were included in this study. The mean CHA2DS2-VASc and HAS-BLED scores were 2.8±1.5 points and 1.7±1.6 points, respectively. During the follow-up, 23 (6.6%) and 12 (3.4%) of 348 patients had ischemic stroke and major bleeding events, respectively. The incidence of ischemic stroke and major bleeding events stratified by the CHA2DS2-VASc and HAS-BLED scores were shown in Figure 1.
Conclusion
The risk stratification for ischemic stroke and major bleeding using the CHA2DS2-VASc and HAS-BLED scores is valid in patients without AF.

Abstract
PURPOSE To develop and validate the Expanded Mindful Eating Scale (EMES), an expanded mindful eating model created for the promotion of health and sustainability. DESIGN/METHODOLOGY/APPROACH A cross-sectional study using self-administered questionnaire surveys on Ochanomizu Health Study (OHS) was conducted. The survey was provided to 1,388 female university students in Tokyo, Japan. Exploratory factor analysis (EFA), confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) and a partial correlation analysis were used to confirm construct and criterion validity. Internal consistency of the EMES was confirmed to calculate Cronbach's alpha. FINDINGS The response rate was 38.7 % (n = 537). Mean BMI was 20.21 ± 2.12, and 18.8% of them were classified as "lean" (BMI < 18.5). The authors listed 25 items and obtained a final factor structure of five factors and 20 items, as a result of EFA. Through CFA, the authors obtained the following fit indices for a final model: GFI = 0.914, AGFI = 0.890, CFI = 0.870 and RMSEA = 0.061. The total EMES score was significantly correlated with BMI, mindfulness, body dissatisfaction, drive for thinness and life satisfaction (r = -0.138, -0.315, -0.339, -0.281 and 0.149, p < 0.01, respectively). Cronbach's alpha for all items in this scale was 0.687. PRACTICAL IMPLICATIONS The authors suggest the possibility that practitioners and researchers of mindful eating that includes this new concept can use authors' novel scale as an effective measurement tool. ORIGINALITY/VALUE The EMES, which can multidimensionally measure the concept of the expanded model of mindful eating was first developed in this study.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Having a late chronotype, that is, the tendency to go to sleep and wake up at later hours, influences an individual's physical and mental health. Despite a few studies noting the association of chronotype with healthy dietary patterns, this relationship remains unclear. PURPOSE This study aimed to describe the association of chronotype with healthful and unhealthful plant-based diet quality in female Japanese undergraduate students. DESIGN Cross-sectional. PARTICIPANTS AND SETTING A total of 218 female university students in Tokyo, Japan. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Healthful and unhealthful plant-based dietary index-Japanese version (hPDI-J and uPDI-J), calculated using the validated brief-type self-administered diet history questionnaire. STATISTICAL ANALYSES PERFORMED A five-model stepwise multiple linear regression analysis was conducted. Independent variables were hPDI-J and uPDI-J scores, and dependent variables were various lifestyle habits related to the circadian rhythm and demographic characteristics. RESULTS Mean (standard deviation) sleep duration, midpoint of sleep, sleep latency time, and social jetlag were 411 (60) min, 03:56 (00:57), 21 (27) min, and 50 (39) min, respectively. Chronotype and several variables, such as residential status, energy and alcohol intake, and nutritional knowledge, were associated with healthful and unhealthful plant-based diet quality. Individuals who had higher hPDI-J scores were more likely to have an earlier chronotype (β = -0.168, P = 0.019) and better nutritional knowledge (β = 0.164, P = 0.022) than those with lower hPDI-J scores. Individuals were more likely to have higher uPDI-J scores if they were living alone (β = -0.301, P < 0.001), had a later chronotype (β = 0.181, P = 0.001), higher frequency of snacking (β = 0.164, P = 0.019), lower total energy (β = -0.445, P < 0.001), and worse nutritional knowledge (β = -0.172, P = 0.001). CONCLUSION This study provided new evidence as to the relationship between sleep and dietary habits, the interaction of which may affect women's health.

Aim
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the association of RV function and appropriate therapy of ICD.Methods: This study was a single-center retrospective cohort study. Consecutive patients who underwent ICD implantation for any diseases were enrolled except for non-dilated phase hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and channelopathy. Transthoracic echocardiographic parameters including left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), RV basal diameter, RV end-diastolic area, and right ventricular fractional area change (RVFAC) were evaluated. RV systolic dysfunction was defined as RVFAC <35%. Cox regression analysis was used to analyze the effects of those parameters on appropriate ICD therapy after the implantation.
Results
In total, 151 patients (60.9 ± 13.6 years, 117 males) consisting of 67 old myocardial infarction, 34 dilated cardiomyopathy, 19 cardiac sarcoidosis, and 31 others were enrolled. Eighty patients received an ICD as a secondary prophylaxis. Mean LVEF and RVFAC were 37.8 ± 13.9% and 33.2 ± 10.8%, respectively. RV systolic dysfunction was present in 86 (57.0%) patients, which was significantly associated with ICD therapy (odds ratio 2.313; 95% confidence interval 1.067-5.014; P = 0.034) according to a univariate analysis. There was no correlation between RVFAC and LVEF (correlation coefficient =0.064). Regarding the subjects LVEF > 35%, RV systolic dysfunction was an independent predictor of ICD therapy in a multivariate analysis.
Conclusion
RV systolic dysfunction was independently associated with increased ICD therapy despite of relatively preserved LVEF.

Abstract
Health literacy assessment is a major aspect of planning health education for
adolescents. We evaluated the health literacy of Japanese adolescents using both
perceived and knowledge-based health literacy scales. Study questionnaires were
administered to 773 junior and senior high school students aged 12 to 18 years.
We tested a model describing the hierarchical relations between functional,
communicative, critical, and knowledge-based health literacy using path
analysis. Critical health literacy was found to be influenced by functional,
communicative, and knowledge-based health literacy, while functional and
knowledge-based health literacy were correlated. The model, with slight
modification, was supported. The result indicates that perceived functional
health literacy scores did not directly correlate with higher perceived critical
health literacy; rather, they only informed critical health literacy when
participants had high knowledge-based health literacy.

Abstract
We have developed a catalytic aerobic oxidative dimerization reaction of benzofuranones using a Pd(II)-µ-hydroxo complex. Radical-radical cross-coupling of the resulting dimers with azo compounds enabled the one-pot synthesis of structurally congested benzofuranones having two distinct vicinal all-carbon quaternary centers.

Abstract
Background:Oral Janus kinase inhibitors (JAKi) have dramatically altered outcomes in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). However, there remains some proportion of patients who respond to inadequately JAKi treatment (JAKi-IR) [1,2]. The characteristics in RA patients associated with JAKi-IR have not been fully demonstrated.Objectives:To clarify the characteristics of JAKi-IR in patients with RA by cluster analysis.Methods:This retrospective study comprised 120 RA patients who were treated with JAKi (Tofacitinib or Baricitinib) between July 2013 and September 2019 in five facilities. The disease status at the baseline, at 12 weeks after JAKi treatment and at the time point of withdrawing JAKi was assessed using the Disease Activity Score (DAS28) and the American College of Rheumatology (ACR) response criteria. JAKi-IR was defined as follows, primary non-response at 12 weeks after JAKi treatment: withdrawal of JAKi with ACR20 non-response or non-improvement in DAS28-CRP (ΔDAS28-CRP<1.2 from baseline), secondary non-response: withdrawal of JAKi without clinical remission after 12 weeks. Hierarchical cluster analysis was performed with the following variables: gender, age, disease duration, bone erosion, ACR functional classification (Class ≥3), comcomitant rheumatoid arthritis related interstitial lung disease (RA-ILD) or other autoimmune disease (AID), anti-citrullinated protein antibody (ACPA) positivity, rheumatoid factor (RF) at baseline, use/dose of methotrexate (MTX) and prednisolone (PSL), serum ESR/CRP, tender/swollen joint counts (TJC/SJC), visual analog scale by patients (VAS-Pt), and prior of biologic DMARDs.Results:The 120 enrolled patients were classified into 4 groups by cluster analysis(Figure1), The characteristics of each group are as follows, Group A(n=21): female + bone erosion + RF/ACPA positive + AID + MTX non-user, Group B(n=36): male + older age + RA-ILD + RF/ACPA positive + MTX non-user, Group C(n=35): RF/ACPA positive + absence of RA-ILD + MTX user, Group D (n=28): seronegative + MTX user + absence of RA-ILD + history of biologic DMARDs failure. The rate of JAKi-IR was A:9%, B:8%, C:20%, D:32%, and the significant difference between Group B and D was identified (p=0.02). In multiple comparison of 4 groups, no significant difference was identified (p=0.06) (Figure2).Conclusion:JAKi-IR would be more likely to be seronegative, MTX use, absence of RA-ILD and history of biologic DMARDs failure. Cluster analysis is an exploratory tool that aids in the analysis of huge amount of data.References:[1] Takeuchi T, Yamanaka H, Yamaoka K, Arai S, Toyoizumi S, DeMasi R, et al.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to analyze how parental education modifies the genetic and environmental variances of BMI from infancy to old age in three geographic-cultural regions. METHODS A pooled sample of 29 cohorts including 143,499 twin individuals with information on parental education and BMI from age 1 to 79 years (299,201 BMI measures) was analyzed by genetic twin modeling. RESULTS Until 4 years of age, parental education was not consistently associated with BMI. Thereafter, higher parental education level was associated with lower BMI in males and females. Total and additive genetic variances of BMI were smaller in the offspring of highly educated parents than in those whose parents had low education levels. Especially in North American and Australian children, environmental factors shared by co-twins also contributed to the higher BMI variation in the low education level category. In Europe and East Asia, the associations of parental education with mean BMI and BMI variance were weaker than in North America and Australia. CONCLUSIONS Lower parental education level is associated with higher mean BMI and larger genetic variance of BMI after early childhood, especially in the obesogenic macro-environment. The interplay among genetic predisposition, childhood social environment, and macro-social context is important for socioeconomic differences in BMI.

Abstract
An in vitro-produced bovine embryo has a low conception rate compared with that of an in vivo embryo. The present study was conducted to examine the effects of different treatments delivered to donors before ovum pickup (OPU) sessions to improve the conception rate of in vitro-produced bovine embryos. In total, 351 OPU sessions were performed on 138 Holstein and 213 Japanese Black cows from January to December 2017. Donors were divided into 4 groups based on their pretreatment before OPU: (1) single injection of 2.5 AU of FSH 40h before OPU; (2) CIDR insertion on Day 0, injection of 2mg of oestradiol benzoate on Day 1, 4 injections of FSH (each 2.5 AU) every 12h beginning from Day 5 to 7, followed by removal of CIDR and OPU on Day 9; (3) injection of 50μg of gonadotropin-releasing hormone 72h before OPU; or (4) no pretreatment. The collected cumulus-oocyte complexes were matured for 22h in 25mM of HEPES buffered TCM-199 supplemented with 5% newborn calf serum and 0.02 AU mL−1 FSH. After 6h of gamete co-culture (5.0×106 sperm mL−1), the presumptive zygotes were washed and the remaining cumulus cells were denuded by pipetting. The presumptive zygotes were then cultured in KSOMaa supplemented with 5% newborn calf serum for 9 days in a micro-well culture dish (Dai Nippon Printing, Tokyo, Japan). Blastocyst formation rates were analysed 9 days after insemination, and the formed blastocysts were transferred to oestrous synchronized recipients on the seventh or eighth day after oestrus. The data were analysed by Chi-squared test with Yates correction. The average numbers of collected oocytes were 57.7±17.4 (n=136), 25.3±12.8 (n=20), 28.8±12.5 (n=18) and 24.3±12.9 (n=177) in groups 1 to 4, respectively. Groups 1 and 2 showed significantly (P<0.01) high percentages of Grade-1 oocytes (52.1 and 49.6%, respectively) compared with groups 3 and 4 (37.3 and 39.9%, respectively). The proportion of blastocysts in groups 1 (38.6%) was significantly different compared with that in groups 2 (32.1%) and 4 (35.3%), but the difference was insignificant in the case of group 3 (36.4%). The conception rates in groups 1 (43.5%, n=868) and 2 (59.1%, n=44) were significantly (P<0.05) higher than those in groups 3 (35.1%, n=57) and 4 (34.9%, n=768). These results suggest that although the efficiency of embryo production did not differ largely between donors pretreated with 4 FSH injections and those without any pretreatment, the conception rate in donors pretreated with 4 FSH injections was significantly higher than that in donors without pretreatment. Moreover, donors pretreated with a single injection of FSH showed significantly high efficiency of embryo production and conception rate than donors without pretreatment.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to examine the quality of life (QOL) in Japanese couples during the transition to parenthood with their first child. BACKGROUND Relevant literature suggests that the health status of women drop during pregnancy and the postpartum period. However, less is known about their partner's well-being during the transition to parenthood and little research has addressed the relationship between couples' QOL across multiple domains. METHOD Participants included 9216 married Japanese men and women, including 3729 couples, who were expecting or raising their first child under the age of three. They independently completed questionnaires on baseline demographics and on WHOQOL-BREF. RESULTS Men showed higher scores for psychological QOL, while women had higher scores for social and environment QOL. A significant interaction between gender and stage of transition to parenthood was found. The moderating effect of age between the stage and QOL was found for men on the physical and psychological domains. Couples' QOL scores were weakly to moderately correlated. CONCLUSION Findings suggest that both men and women had lower QOL, with the exception of women's physical QOL, after childbirth, but they showed different trends during the transition to parenthood across different domains of QOL.

Abstract
Leukocyte kinesis in the capillary vascular bed during hemodialysis (HD) was investigated to elucidate the mechanism of transient leukopenia. Leukocyte movement was observed microscopically during HD using the rabbit ear chamber (REC) technique, which permits visualization of the movement of blood corpuscles in capillaries. Blood was drawn from the femoral artery and returned into the auricular and/or carotid artery so that the blood passing through the hollow fiber artificial kidney (HFAK) flowed into capillaries in the REC. Leukocyte counts of blood samples taken from the afferent and efferent limbs of the HD circuit, the right jugular vein and the right atrium were determined consecutively during HD. The difference in the leukocyte count was observed between the afferent and efferent limbs for the first 15 minutes and thereafter between the efferent limb and the jugular vein. The “transpulmonary” difference in the leukocyte count was not noticed throughout HD. Between 15 and 90 minutes after the start of HD, scarcely any circulating leukocytes were found in capillaries in the REC and some leukocytes were attached to the endothelial surface. Thereafter circulating leukocytes were seen again and detachment of leukocytes from the endothelial surface was observed. No leukocyte aggregation or embolization of aggregating leukocytes was noticed. This evidence suggests that leukopenia may be attributed to the transient shift of leukocytes to the marginal pool of the vessel lumen and this process may not be specific for the pulmonary vasculature, but may occur in the first capillary bed into which the blood passing through the HFAK flows. The attachment of leukocytes to the surface membrane of the HFAK may contribute to the transient leukopenia especially during the initial period of the HD.

Abstract
The conventional superovulation treatment using follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) comprises 2 intramuscular injections per day for 3 to 4 days. This conventional method requires frequent handling of donors—which may cause increasing stress in donors—and high labour costs. Therefore, to alleviate these issues, a treatment protocol using a single FSH injection under on-farm conditions is needed. The objective of this study was to evaluate the feasibility of the single subcutaneous FSH injection protocol (Sugawara et al. 2017 Reprod. Fertil. Dev. 29, 209), compared with with the traditional twice-daily intramuscular FSH injection protocol, in Japanese Black cows. Japanese Black cows (n = 13) were superovulated using 2 treatments in a crossover design. All cows received an intravaginal progesterone device (CIDR) at random stages of the oestrous cycle (Day 0), and 2 mg of oestradiol benzoate on Day 1 (24 h after CIDR insertion). On Day 6, for the group receiving a single subcutaneous FSH injection (single-FSH), 20 armor units (AU) of pFSH dissolved in 30 mL of saline was subcutaneously injected in the neck region and 0.5 mg of prostaglandin F2α was intramuscularly injected simultaneously. For the control group, FSH administration was initiated at Day 6. A total dose of 20 AU of FSH was administered in 3 days (with decreasing doses of 5, 3, and 2 AU, respectively, per injection) with 2 intramuscular injections per day; 0.5 mg of prostaglandin F2α was injected 48 h after the first FSH injection. For both groups, CIDR was removed 60 h after FSH injection and AI was done 42 to 48 h after CIDR removal. Embryo collections were performed 7 days after AI. Data were analysed using t-test for the mean numbers of collected ova/embryos and transferable embryos, and chi-squared test for the proportion of transferable embryos. There were no significant differences in the mean numbers (single-FSH v. control) of ova/embryos collected (17.1 ± 12.1 v. 17.8 ± 9.3), or transferable embryos (8.4 ± 9.3 v. 10.3 ± 8.7), and proportion of transferable embryos (45.0 ± 34.0 v. 56.6 ± 36.5). These results showed that although a slightly higher number and proportion of transferable embryos were obtained in the control group, a superovulation treatment protocol involving a single subcutaneous FSH injection can be effectively used for Japanese Black cows, under on-farm conditions.

Abstract
Superovulation treatment using FSH requires injection twice a day, for 3 to 4 days. This conventional method requires frequent handling of donors and higher labour costs. Therefore, simplification of the superovulation treatment protocol is needed to reduce animal handling and labour costs. The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of a single subcutaneous FSH injection and the timing of prostaglandin F2α (PGF; cloprostenol) administration on the superovulatory response in Japanese Black cows (Hiraizumi et al. 2015 Theriogenology 83, 466–473) and to determine whether the superovulation treatment protocol can be used in on-farm conditions. A total of 270 Japanese Black cows were used in this study. Twenty Armour units of pFSH dissolved in 30 mL of saline was injected subcutaneously in the neck region. In Experiment 1, 32 cows received an intravaginal progesterone device (CIDR) at random stages of the oestrous cycle (Day 0), and 2 mg of oestradiol benzoate on Day 1 (24 h after CIDR insertion). On Day 6, FSH was injected subcutaneously, and 16 cows were simultaneously injected with 0.5 mg of PGF (0-h PGF, Group A); the other 16 cows were injected with 0.5 mg of PGF at 48 h (on Day 8) after FSH injection (48-h PGF, Group B). The CIDR was removed at 60 h after FSH injection and AI was done 42 to 48 h after CIDR removal. Embryo collections were performed 7 days after AI. In Experiment 2, 238 cows were used in farm conditions. The cows were superstimulated using the same protocol as that used for Group A. Data were analysed by ANOVA for the mean numbers of collected ova/embryos and transferrable embryos and chi-square test for the proportion of transferrable embryos. In Experiment 1, there were no differences in the mean numbers of ova/embryos collected (16.9 ± 12.3 v. 16.1 ± 17.1) or transferrable embryos (11.1 ± 9.5 v. 7.2 ± 6.2). However, the proportion of transferrable embryos for Group A was significantly higher than that of Group B (65.9 v. 44.7%; P < 0.01). In Experiment 2, the mean numbers of ova/embryos collected and transferrable embryos were 15.7 ± 13.3 and 6.8 ± 7.8, respectively. These results showed that a superovulation treatment protocol involving a single subcutaneous injection of FSH with simultaneous PGF injection can be effectively used for Japanese Black cows under on-farm conditions.

Abstract
This study investigated the psychometric properties of the Japanese version of the WHOQOL-BREF among 10,693 community-based married Japanese men and women (4376 couples) who were either expecting or raising a child. Analyses of item-response distributions, internal consistency, criterion validity, and discriminant validity indicated that the scale had acceptable reliability and performed well in preliminary tests of validity. Furthermore, dyadic confirmatory factor analysis revealed that the theoretical factor structure was valid and similar across partners, suggesting that men and women define and value quality of life in a similar way.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Evaluation of the contractile state of the left ventricle during exercise is important in drawing up a protocol of cardiac rehabilitation. It has been demonstrated that color Doppler- and echo tracking-derived carotid arterial wave intensity is a sensitive index of global left ventricular (LV) contractility. OBJECTIVES We assessed the feasibility of measuring carotid arterial wave intensity and determining force-frequency (contractility-heart rate) relationships (FFR's) during exercise totally noninvasively. METHODS We measured carotid arterial wave intensity with a combined color Doppler and echo tracking system in 15 healthy young male volunteers (age 20.8 ± 1.3 years) at rest and during exercise. FFR's were constructed by plotting the maximum value of wave intensity (WD1) against heart rate (HR). RESULTS WD1 increased linearly with an increase in HR. The goodness-of-fit of the regression line of WD1 on HR in each subject was very high (r2 0.67 ~ 0.91, p < 0.0001 respectively). The slope of the WD1-HR relation ranged from 0.31 to 1.52 [m/s(3)(beat/min)]. CONCLUSIONS A global LV FFR can be generated in healthy young volunteers with an entirely noninvasive combination of exercise and wave intensity. These data should show the potential usefulness of FFR in the context of cardiac rehabilitation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The objective of this study was to compare the sensitivity of detection of lung nodules on low-dose screening CT images between radiologists and technologists. METHODS 11 radiologists and 10 technologists read the low-dose screening CT images of 78 subjects. On images with a slice thickness of 5 mm, there were 60 lung nodules that were ≥5 mm in diameter: 26 nodules with pure ground-glass opacity (GGO), 7 nodules with mixed ground-glass opacity (GGO with a solid component) and 27 solid nodules. On images with a slice thickness of 2 mm, 69 lung nodules were ≥5 mm in diameter: 35 pure GGOs, 7 mixed GGOs and 27 solid nodules. The 21 observers read screening CT images of 5-mm slice thickness at first; then, 6 months later, they read screening CT images of 2-mm slice thickness from the 78 subjects. RESULTS The differences in the mean sensitivities of detection of the pure GGOs, mixed GGOs and solid nodules between radiologists and technologists were not statistically significant, except for the case of solid nodules; the p-values of the differences for pure GGOs, mixed GGOs and solid nodules on the CT images with 5-mm slice thickness were 0.095, 0.461 and 0.005, respectively, and the corresponding p-values on CT images of 2-mm slice thickness were 0.971, 0.722 and 0.0037, respectively. CONCLUSION Well-trained technologists may contribute to the detection of pure and mixed GGOs ≥5 mm in diameter on low-dose screening CT images.

Abstract
AIMS The objective of this study was to examine transcriptional changes in Escherichia coli when the bacterium was growing in the lettuce rhizoshpere. METHODS AND RESULTS A combination of microarray analyses, colonization assays and confocal microscopy was used to gain a more complete understanding of bacterial genes involved in the colonization and growth of E. coli K12 in the lettuce root rhizosphere using a novel hydroponic assay system. After 3 days of interaction with lettuce roots, E. coli genes involved in protein synthesis, stress responses and attachment were up-regulated. Mutants in curli production (crl, csgA) and flagella synthesis (fliN) had a reduced capacity to attach to roots as determined by bacterial counts and by confocal laser scanning microscopy. CONCLUSIONS This study indicates that E. coli K12 has the capability to colonize lettuce roots by using attachment genes and can readily adapt to the rhizosphere of lettuce plants. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY Results of this study show curli production and biofilm modulation genes are important for rhizosphere colonization and may provide useful targets to disrupt this process. Further studies using pathogenic strains will provide additional information about lettuce-E. coli interactions.
