Abstract
PURPOSE The early regression index (ERI) predicts treatment response in rectal cancer patients. Aim of current study was to prospectively assess tumor response to neoadjuvant chemo-radiotherapy (nCRT) of locally advanced esophageal cancer using ERI, based on MRI. MATERIAL AND METHODS From January 2020 to May 2023, 30 patients with esophageal cancer were enrolled in a prospective study (ESCAPE). PET-MRI was performed: i) before nCRT (tpre); ii) at mid-radiotherapy, tmid; iii) after nCRT, 2-6 weeks before surgery (tpost); nCRT delivered 41.4 Gy/23fr with concurrent carboplatin and paclitaxel. For patients that skipped surgery, complete clinical response (cCR) was assessed if patients showed no local relapse after 18 months; patients with pathological complete response (pCR) or with cCR were considered as complete responders (pCR + cCR). GTV volumes were delineated by two observers (Vpre, Vmid, Vpost) on T2w MRI: ERI and other volume regression parameters at tmid and tpost were tested as predictors of pCR + cCR. RESULTS Complete data of 25 patients were available at the time of the analysis: 3/25 with complete response at imaging refused surgery and 2/3 were cCR; in total, 10/25 patients showed pCR + cCR (pCR = 8/22). Both ERImid and ERIpost classified pCR + cCR patients, with ERImid showing better performance (AUC:0.78, p = 0.014): A two-variable logistic model combining ERImid and Vpre improved performances (AUC:0.93, p < 0.0001). Inter-observer variability in contouring GTV did not affect the results. CONCLUSIONS Despite the limited numbers, interim analysis of ESCAPE study suggests ERI as a potential predictor of complete response after nCRT for esophageal cancer. Further validation on larger populations is warranted.

Abstract
Histone modification, a major epigenetic mechanism regulating gene expression through chromatin remodeling, introduces dynamic changes in chromatin architecture. Protein arginine methyltransferase 6 (PRMT6) is overexpressed in various types of cancer, including prostate, lung and endometrial cancer (EC). Epigenome regulates the expression of endogenous retrovirus (ERV), which activates interferon signaling related to cancer. The antitumor effects of PRMT6 inhibition and the role of PRMT6 in EC were investigated, using epigenome multi‑omics analysis, including an assay for chromatin immunoprecipitation sequencing (ChIP‑seq) and RNA sequencing (RNA‑seq). The expression of PRMT6 in EC was analyzed using reverse transcription‑quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT‑qPCR) and immunohistochemistry (IHC). The prognostic impact of PRMT6 expression was evaluated using IHC. The effects of PRMT6‑knockdown (KD) were investigated using cell viability and apoptosis assays, as well as its effects on the epigenome, using ChIP‑seq of H3K27ac antibodies and RNA‑seq. Finally, the downstream targets identified by multi‑omics analysis were evaluated. PRMT6 was overexpressed in EC and associated with a poor prognosis. PRMT6‑KD induced histone hypomethylation, while suppressing cell growth and apoptosis. ChIP‑seq revealed that PRMT6 regulated genomic regions related to interferons and apoptosis through histone modifications. The RNA‑seq data demonstrated altered interferon‑related pathways and increased expression of tumor suppressor genes, including NK6 homeobox 1 and phosphoinositide‑3‑kinase regulatory subunit 1, following PRMT6‑KD. RT‑qPCR revealed that eight ERV genes which activated interferon signaling were upregulated by PRMT6‑KD. The data of the present study suggested that PRMT6 inhibition induced apoptosis through interferon signaling activated by ERV. PRMT6 regulated tumor suppressor genes and may be a novel therapeutic target, to the best of our knowledge, in EC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) diagnosis is based on colposcopy-aided histological examination. However, its accuracy in CIN diagnosis is limited. Some invasive cervical cancers (ICCs) are diagnosed after cervical conization. Therefore, risk stratification of undetected ICC is particularly important for the management of patients with CIN. This study aimed to identify the risk factors for undetected ICC. We especially focused on the association of human papillomavirus (HPV) genotypes. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed the clinicopathological characteristics (including age, parity, and preoperative diagnosis) and HPV genotypes of 348 patients diagnosed with CIN or adenocarcinoma in situ (AIS) who underwent cervical conization at our hospital between 2008 and 2016. The relationship between preoperative factors, including HPV genotypes and post-conization ICC, was evaluated. RESULTS Among the 348 patients, 322, 7, and 19 had preoperative CIN3, CIN2, and AIS, respectively; 181 were nulliparous. The median patient age was 41 (23-83) years. HPV genotyping was performed on 237 patients. Overall, post-conization ICC was detected in 16 patients (4.6%). Multivariate analysis showed that nulliparity and HPV16 positivity were the independent risk factors for post-conization ICC (OR: 6.01, P = 0.0302; OR: 5.26, P = 0.0347, respectively). The combination of HPV16 status and parity improved diagnostic accuracy. Seven of 53 HPV16-positive cases (13%) without childbirth history were diagnosed with post-conization ICC. In contrast, none of the HPV16-negative cases with childbirth history was diagnosed with post-conization ICC. CONCLUSION HPV16 positivity and nulliparity were identified as risk factors for undetected ICC. Careful treatment selection and preoperative scrupulous examination are especially important in these cases.

Abstract
Detailed measurements of the spectral structure of cosmic-ray electrons and positrons from 10.6 GeV to 7.5 TeV are presented from over 7 years of observations with the CALorimetric Electron Telescope (CALET) on the International Space Station. The instrument, consisting of a charge detector, an imaging calorimeter, and a total absorption calorimeter with a total depth of 30 radiation lengths at normal incidence and a fine shower imaging capability, is optimized to measure the all-electron spectrum well into the TeV region. Because of the excellent energy resolution (a few percent above 10 GeV) and the outstanding e/p separation (10^{5}), CALET provides optimal performance for a detailed search of structures in the energy spectrum. The analysis uses data up to the end of 2022, and the statistics of observed electron candidates has increased more than 3 times since the last publication in 2018. By adopting an updated boosted decision tree analysis, a sufficient proton rejection power up to 7.5 TeV is achieved, with a residual proton contamination less than 10%. The observed energy spectrum becomes gradually harder in the lower energy region from around 30 GeV, consistently with AMS-02, but from 300 to 600 GeV it is considerably softer than the spectra measured by DAMPE and Fermi-LAT. At high energies, the spectrum presents a sharp break around 1 TeV, with a spectral index change from -3.15 to -3.91, and a broken power law fitting the data in the energy range from 30 GeV to 4.8 TeV better than a single power law with 6.9 sigma significance, which is compatible with the DAMPE results. The break is consistent with the expected effects of radiation loss during the propagation from distant sources (except the highest energy bin). We have fitted the spectrum with a model consistent with the positron flux measured by AMS-02 below 1 TeV and interpreted the electron+positron spectrum with possible contributions from pulsars and nearby sources. Above 4.8 TeV, a possible contribution from known nearby supernova remnants, including Vela, is addressed by an event-by-event analysis providing a higher proton-rejection power than a purely statistical analysis.

Abstract
PURPOSE Although many patients with endometrial cancer (EC) or atypical endometrial hyperplasia (AEH) achieve complete remission (CR) after high-dose medroxyprogesterone acetate (MPA) treatment, no consensus has been reached on management after CR. Currently, patients receive estrogen-progestin maintenance therapy, but no recommendations exist regarding the duration of maintenance therapy or whether hysterectomy should be considered. This study aimed to provide insights into the management of EC/AEH after achieving CR. METHODS We retrospectively investigated the prognosis of 50 patients with EC or AEH who achieved CR after MPA therapy. We assessed the association between disease recurrence and clinicopathological features and the pre- and post-operative histological diagnoses of patients who underwent hysterectomy. RESULTS The median follow-up duration was 34 months (range: 1-179 months). Recurrence was observed in 17 patients. Among the clinical characteristics investigated, only the primary disease was significantly associated with disease recurrence; patients with EC had a higher risk of recurrence than those with AEH (p = 0.037). During the observation period, 27 patients attempted pregnancy, and 14 pregnancies resulted in delivery. Patients who gave birth had significantly longer relapse-free survivals than those who did not (p = 0.031). Further, 16 patients underwent hysterectomies, and AEH was detected postoperatively in 4 of 11 patients (36.4%) with no preoperative abnormalities. CONCLUSIONS We identified several clinical features of patients with EC and AEH after CR. Given the high probability of endometrial abnormalities detected postoperatively, hysterectomy may be considered for patients who no longer want children.

Abstract
Planets with radii between that of the Earth and Neptune (hereafter referred to as 'sub-Neptunes') are found in close-in orbits around more than half of all Sun-like stars1,2. However, their composition, formation and evolution remain poorly understood3. The study of multiplanetary systems offers an opportunity to investigate the outcomes of planet formation and evolution while controlling for initial conditions and environment. Those in resonance (with their orbital periods related by a ratio of small integers) are particularly valuable because they imply a system architecture practically unchanged since its birth. Here we present the observations of six transiting planets around the bright nearby star HD 110067. We find that the planets follow a chain of resonant orbits. A dynamical study of the innermost planet triplet allowed the prediction and later confirmation of the orbits of the rest of the planets in the system. The six planets are found to be sub-Neptunes with radii ranging from 1.94R⊕ to 2.85R⊕. Three of the planets have measured masses, yielding low bulk densities that suggest the presence of large hydrogen-dominated atmospheres.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) To develop an NTCP model predicting late skin toxicity using dosimetric parameters from the breast dermis to identify possible RT constraints on such a structure. MATERIALS/METHODS The skin structure was defined as the 5 mm inner isotropic expansion from the outer CT body contour. It was retrospectively segmented on a large mono-Institutional cohort of early-stage breast cancer patients enrolled between 2009 and 2017 (n = 1066). Patients were treated with tangential-field RT, delivering 40 Gy in 15 fractions without a RT boost. Toxicity was reported during FU using SOMA/LENT scoring. The study endpoint was moderate-severe late toxicity consisting of Fibrosis-Atrophy-Telangiectasia-Pain (FATP G2+) developed within 42 months after RT completion. Automatic delineation of skin and DVH extraction were accomplished by scripting using the MIM_assistant software. Also, the impact of changes in the dose calculation algorithms during enrolment time was quantified. A logistic model was created by combining multifactorial variables, considering both clinical factors and the absolute skin DVH (cc). Variance Inflation Factor (VIF) was performed to reduce the multicollinearity. Repeated 5-fold cross-validation with SMOTE approach to overcome the class unbalance was applied for model feature selection. The predictive model was then developed on the entire population due to the limited G2+ events. RESULTS The FATP G2+ rate was 3.8% with 40/1066 experiencing late toxicity. Among them, a 40% had already developed acute symptoms after RT completion showing a consequential effect. The multicollinearity analysis selected 27 clinical-treatment-dosimetric factors. After repeated (20 times) 5-fold cross-validation, the best-performing model included Post-Surgery Cosmetic alterations, Aromatase Inhibitors (as a protective factor), V20 Gy (50% of the prescribed dose - DVH plateau region) and V42 Gy (105% of the prescribed dose - DVH high-dose tail). Accuracy and f1-score were 0.76 and 0.58 in both training and test sets, providing good reliability for selected variables. AUC for the final model on the entire population was 0.76+/-0.04. CONCLUSION We quantified the association between fibrosis and skin DVH when delivering 40 Gy in 15fr. The model suggested an independent role of V20 and V42 Gy and a heavy risk modulation by surgical effects and aromatase inhibitors. This last factor could interfere with adipose tissue and water-content distribution within the breast. For this purpose, a CT-based densitometry characterization of toxicity patients is ongoing.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The efficacy of adjuvant therapy for patients with cervical cancer with intermediate risk (CC-IR) remains controversial. We examined the impact of adjuvant therapy on survival outcomes in patients with CC-IR and evaluated the heterogeneous treatment effects (HTEs) of adjuvant therapies based on clinicopathologic characteristics. METHODS We retrospectively analyzed a previous Japanese nationwide cohort of 6192 patients with stage IB-IIB cervical cancer who underwent radical hysterectomy. We created two pairs of propensity score-matched treatment/control groups to investigate the treatment effects of adjuvant therapies: (1) adjuvant therapy versus non-adjuvant therapy; (2) chemotherapy versus radiotherapy conditional on adjuvant therapy. Multivariate analyses with treatment interactions were performed to evaluate the HTEs. RESULTS Among the 1613 patients with CC-IR, 619 and 994 were in the non-treatment and treatment groups, respectively. Survival outcomes did not differ between the two groups: 3-year progression-free survival (PFS) rates were 88.1% and 90.3% in the non-treatment and treatment groups, respectively (p = 0.199). Of the patients in the treatment group, 654 and 340 received radiotherapy and chemotherapy, respectively. Patients who received chemotherapy had better PFS than those who received radiotherapy (3-year PFS, 90.9% vs. 82.9%, p = 0.010). Tumor size was a significant factor that affected the treatment effects of chemotherapy; patients with large tumors gained better therapeutic effects from chemotherapy than those with small tumors. CONCLUSION Adjuvant therapy is optional for some patients with CC-IR; however, chemotherapy can be recommended as adjuvant therapy, particularly for patients with large tumors.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Single-agent chemotherapy with or without bevacizumab (Bev) is a standard therapy for platinum-resistant ovarian cancer (PR-OC). However, there is a lack of literature on chemotherapy agent selection in heterogenous PR-OC. Therefore, we aimed to clarify the heterogeneous treatment effects of each chemotherapy agent. METHODS Patients who underwent single-drug chemotherapy agents or Bev combination therapy for PR-OC between January 2009 and June 2022 were included in this study. We assessed the impact of each chemotherapy agent on the time to treatment failure (TTF) according to histological type, platinum-free interval (PFI), and Bev usage. RESULTS A total of 158 patients received 343 different chemotherapy regimens. In patients with clear cell carcinoma/mucinous carcinoma (CC/MC), gemcitabine (GEM) had the strongest effect with a median TTF of 5.3 months, whilst nedaplatin (NDP) had the lowest effect with a median TTF of 1.4 months. In contrast, in the non-CC/MC group, irinotecan (CPT-11) and NDP had a better TTF than GEM and pegylated liposomal doxorubicin (PLD). There were notable differences in the treatment efficacy of NDP according to PFI. Specifically, NDP prolonged the TTF in patients with a PFI ≥ 3 months. Compared with GEM alone, GEM + Bev tended to prolong the TTF more effectively; however, an additive effect was not observed with PLD + Bev. CONCLUSIONS This study demonstrated that the effect of chemotherapy agents differed according to the tumor and background characteristics of the patient. Our findings will improve selection of effective therapies for patients with PR-OC by considering their background characteristics.

Abstract
Recently, artificial intelligence (AI) has been applied in various fields due to the development of new learning methods, such as deep learning, and the marked progress in computational processing speed. AI is also being applied in the medical field for medical image recognition and omics analysis of genomes and other data. Recently, AI applications for videos of minimally invasive surgeries have also advanced, and studies on such applications are increasing. In the present review, studies that focused on the following topics were selected: i) Organ and anatomy identification, ii) instrument identification, iii) procedure and surgical phase recognition, iv) surgery-time prediction, v) identification of an appropriate incision line, and vi) surgical education. The development of autonomous surgical robots is also progressing, with the Smart Tissue Autonomous Robot (STAR) and RAVEN systems being the most reported developments. STAR, in particular, is currently being used in laparoscopic imaging to recognize the surgical site from laparoscopic images and is in the process of establishing an automated suturing system, albeit in animal experiments. The present review examined the possibility of fully autonomous surgical robots in the future.

Abstract
Approximately 95% of cervical cancer are caused by human papillomavirus (HPV) infection. Although it is estimated that HPV-associated cervical cancer will decrease with the widespread use of HPV vaccine, it may take time for HPV-associated cervical cancer to be eliminated. For the appropriate management of HPV-associated cervical cancer, it is important to understand the detailed mechanisms of cervical cancer development. First, the cellular origin of most cervical cancers is thought to be cells in the squamocolumnar junction (SCJ) of the uterine cervix. Therefore, it is important to understand the characteristics of SCJ for cervical cancer screening and treatment. Second, cervical cancer is caused by high risk HPV (HR-HPV) infection, however, the manner of progression to cervical cancer differs depending on the type of HR-HPV: HPV16 is characterized by a stepwise carcinogenesis, HPV18 is difficult to detect in precancerous lesions, and HPV52, 58 tends to remain in the state of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN). Third, in addition to the type of HPV, the involvement of the human immune response is also important in the progression and regression of cervical cancer. In this review, we demonstrate the carcinogenesis mechanism of HPV-associated cervical cancer, management of CIN, and the current treatment of CIN and cervical cancer.

Abstract
This study aimed to investigate the presence of Chlamydia spp. and Parachlamydia acanthamoebae in bovine placental tissue originating from abortion and non-abortion cases in Belgium. Placentas of 164 late term bovine abortions (last trimester of gestation) and 41 non-abortion (collected after calving) cases were analyzed by PCR for Chlamydia spp., Chlamydia abortus, Chlamydia psittaci, and Parachlamydia acanthamoebae. Additionally, a subset of 101 (75 abortion and 26 non-abortion cases) of these placenta samples were also analyzed by histopathology to detect possible Chlamydia-induced lesions. In 5.4% (11/205) of the cases, Chlamydia spp. were detected, and 3 of those cases were positive for Chlamydia psittaci. Parachlamydia acanthamoebae was detected in 36% (75/205) of the cases, being 44% (n = 72) in abortions and 7.3% (n = 3) in non-abortions cases (P < 0.001). None of the cases was positive for Chlamydia abortus. Purulent and/or necrotizing placentitis with or without vasculitis was observed in 18.8% (19/101) of the histopathologically analyzed placenta samples. In 5.9% (6/101) of the cases, placentitis was observed along with vasculitis. In the abortion cases, 24% (18/75) of the samples showed purulent and/or necrotizing placentitis, while purulent and/or necrotizing placentitis was visible in 3.9% (1/26) of the non-abortion cases. Placental lesions of inflammation and/or necrosis were present in 44% (15/34) of the cases where P. acanthamoebae was detected, while inflammation and/or necrosis was present in 20.9% (14/67) of the negative cases (P < 0.05). The detection of Chlamydia spp. and especially Parachlamydia acanthamoebae, in combination with correlated histological lesions such as purulent and/or necrotizing placentitis and/or vasculitis in placental tissue following abortion, suggests a potential role of this pathogen in cases of bovine abortion in Belgium. Further in-depth studies are necessary to unravel the role of these species as abortifacient agents in cattle and to include them in bovine abortion monitoring programs.

Abstract
We present the observation of a charge-sign dependent solar modulation of galactic cosmic rays (GCRs) with the Calorimetric Electron Telescope onboard the International Space Station over 6 yr, corresponding to the positive polarity of the solar magnetic field. The observed variation of proton count rate is consistent with the neutron monitor count rate, validating our methods for determining the proton count rate. It is observed by the Calorimetric Electron Telescope that both GCR electron and proton count rates at the same average rigidity vary in anticorrelation with the tilt angle of the heliospheric current sheet, while the amplitude of the variation is significantly larger in the electron count rate than in the proton count rate. We show that this observed charge-sign dependence is reproduced by a numerical "drift model" of the GCR transport in the heliosphere. This is a clear signature of the drift effect on the long-term solar modulation observed with a single detector.

Abstract
We present the results of a direct measurement of the cosmic-ray helium spectrum with the CALET instrument in operation on the International Space Station since 2015. The observation period covered by this analysis spans from October 13, 2015, to April 30, 2022 (2392 days). The very wide dynamic range of CALET allowed for the collection of helium data over a large energy interval, from ∼40 GeV to ∼250 TeV, for the first time with a single instrument in low Earth orbit. The measured spectrum shows evidence of a deviation of the flux from a single power law by more than 8σ with a progressive spectral hardening from a few hundred GeV to a few tens of TeV. This result is consistent with the data reported by space instruments including PAMELA, AMS-02, and DAMPE and balloon instruments including CREAM. At higher energy we report the onset of a softening of the helium spectrum around 30 TeV (total kinetic energy). Though affected by large uncertainties in the highest energy bins, the observation of a flux reduction turns out to be consistent with the most recent results of DAMPE. A double broken power law is found to fit simultaneously both spectral features: the hardening (at lower energy) and the softening (at higher energy). A measurement of the proton to helium flux ratio in the energy range from 60 GeV/n to about 60 TeV/n is also presented, using the CALET proton flux recently updated with higher statistics.

Abstract
PURPOSE Pegylated liposomal doxorubicin (PLD)-induced hand-foot syndrome (HFS) frequently lowers the quality of life of ovarian cancer patients. Wrist and ankle cooling, having a limited preventive effect, has been the commonest supportive HFS care. In this study, we retrospectively assessed the primary preventive effect of a combination of regional cooling and oral dexamethasone therapy (cooling + oral Dex) on HFS. METHODS This study is a single-arm retrospective, observational study. Recurrent ovarian cancer patients were administered PLD ± bevacizumab. We retrospectively examined the efficacy of hands and feet cooling (from the start of PLD to the end) + oral Dex (day 1-5: 8 mg/day, day 6, 7: 4 mg/day) for primary HFS prevention. RESULTS This study included 74 patients. The initial dose of PLD was 50 mg/m2 and 40 mg/m2 for 32 (43.2%) and 42 (56.8%) patients, respectively. HFS of Grade ≥ 2 and Grade ≥ 3 developed in five (6.8%) and one (1.4%) patient(s), respectively. The incidence of ≥ Grade 2 and ≥ Grade 3 HFS was much lower than those reported in previous studies. Dose reduction was required in 13 patients (17.6%) mainly because of neutropenia or mucositis; there was no HFS-induced dose reduction. Meanwhile, PLD therapy was discontinued mainly because of interstitial pneumonia (4 patients) and HFS (one patient). CONCLUSIONS We demonstrated the efficacy of regional cooling and oral Dex for primary prevention of PLD-induced HFS. Although future prospective studies are needed to confirm its efficacy, this combination therapy can be considered for primary prevention of HFS in ovarian cancer patients on PLD.

Abstract
The effects of post-operative adjuvant radiotherapy (RT) on intermediate-risk patients with cervical cancer have not been fully elucidated. Therefore, the present study aimed to investigate the impact of RT on intermediate-risk cervical cancer. The data of 112 patients with stage IB and IIA cervical cancer treated with radical hysterectomy between January 2009 and December 2018 were retrospectively reviewed. Overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS), and the frequency of adverse events were compared between patients with and without adjuvant RT (RT+ and RT-, respectively). Subgroup analyses of PFS based on tumor size, cervical stromal invasion, lymphovascular space invasion and histology [squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) vs. non-SCC] were performed. Among the 112 patients, 41 received adjuvant RT. Although there were no significant differences in OS or PFS between the RT+ and RT- groups, the frequency of adverse events was much higher in the RT+ group. Patients in the RT+ group also had more recurrent risk factors than those in the RT- group. Based on the subgroup analyses, although no significant differences were observed between any of the groups, RT demonstrated a different impact on PFS between SCC and non-SCC: No difference was observed in the SCC group, whereas patients in the RT+ group tended to have poorer prognoses compared to those in the RT- group of the non-SCC group. These results suggest that the impact of post-operative RT on stage IB and IIA cervical cancer is limited and is accompanied by increased adverse events. The eligibility of patients for post-operative RT should be carefully determined based on the therapeutic effect of RT in each subgroup.

Abstract
We report a search for cosmic-ray boosted dark matter with protons using the 0.37 megaton×years data collected at Super-Kamiokande experiment during the 1996-2018 period (SKI-IV phase). We searched for an excess of proton recoils above the atmospheric neutrino background from the vicinity of the Galactic Center. No such excess is observed, and limits are calculated for two reference models of dark matter with either a constant interaction cross section or through a scalar mediator. This is the first experimental search for boosted dark matter with hadrons using directional information. The results present the most stringent limits on cosmic-ray boosted dark matter and exclude the dark matter-nucleon elastic scattering cross section between 10^{-33}cm^{2} and 10^{-27}cm^{2} for dark matter mass from 1 MeV/c^{2} to 300 MeV/c^{2}.

Abstract
Cancer of unknown primary (CUP) is a heterogeneous group of metastatic tumors with a usually unfavorable prognosis. A 33-year-old female was diagnosed with pelvic squamous cell carcinoma of unknown primary. The tumor was p16-positive, suggesting that it was human papillomavirus (HPV)-related. The tumor progressed for 4 months after concurrent chemoradiotherapy (initial treatment) and was refractory to paclitaxel plus carboplatin (second-line therapy). Liquid-based cancer genomic profiling identified five pathogenic variants, including Neurofibromin1 (NF1) (p.T1690Mfs*5); however, due to the lack of domestic clinical trials, the patient could not receive genome-based molecular-target therapies. Simultaneously, nivolumab was administered to the patient post its approval in Japan for CUP. The tumor responded to nivolumab, accompanied by decreased levels of tumor markers. NF1 mutations and HPV-related carcinogenesis may be associated with a favorable response to nivolumab treatment. It may therefore serve as a potential treatment against cancers of unknown primaries.

Abstract
We present the measurement of the energy dependence of the boron flux in cosmic rays and its ratio to the carbon flux in an energy interval from 8.4 GeV/n to 3.8 TeV/n based on the data collected by the Calorimetric Electron Telescope (CALET) during ∼6.4 yr of operation on the International Space Station. An update of the energy spectrum of carbon is also presented with an increase in statistics over our previous measurement. The observed boron flux shows a spectral hardening at the same transition energy E_{0}∼200 GeV/n of the C spectrum, though B and C fluxes have different energy dependences. The spectral index of the B spectrum is found to be γ=-3.047±0.024 in the interval 25<E<200 GeV/n. The B spectrum hardens by Δγ_{B}=0.25±0.12, while the best fit value for the spectral variation of C is Δγ_{C}=0.19±0.03. The B/C flux ratio is compatible with a hardening of 0.09±0.05, though a single power-law energy dependence cannot be ruled out given the current statistical uncertainties. A break in the B/C ratio energy dependence would support the recent AMS-02 observations that secondary cosmic rays exhibit a stronger hardening than primary ones. We also perform a fit to the B/C ratio with a leaky-box model of the cosmic-ray propagation in the Galaxy in order to probe a possible residual value λ_{0} of the mean escape path length λ at high energy. We find that our B/C data are compatible with a nonzero value of λ_{0}, which can be interpreted as the column density of matter that cosmic rays cross within the acceleration region.

Abstract
Positive peritoneal cytology is a poor prognostic factor in patients with advanced endometrial cancer. Suspicious positive peritoneal cytology (class III) is commonly encountered in clinical practice. However, no standard treatment protocol exists for its management. Here, we investigated a possible relationship between suspicious positive peritoneal cytology, disease stage, risk factors, and endometrial cancer prognosis. We included patients diagnosed with endometrial cancer who underwent total hysterectomy and peritoneal cytology at the University of Tokyo Hospital between 2008 and 2022. Overall, 670 patients were included in the analyses; both demographic and clinical data of the patients were collected. The proportion of patients with lymph node metastasis was significantly different between peritoneal cytology groups, showing lymph node metastasis to be more extensive in patients with positive or suspicious positive peritoneal cytology than in patients with negative peritoneal cytology (p < 0.05). Thirty-nine patients had suspicious positive peritoneal cytology. Omental resection and biopsy were performed in 16 cases. No case of omental metastasis was found. Among patients with suspected ascites cytology, no patient experienced symptom recurrence or death. Therefore, monitoring lymph node metastasis in suspicious positive cases is essential. Moreover, a change of treatment method based on the finding of suspected positive peritoneal cytology is not necessary.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Clinical trials and registry data showed encouraging outcomes for leadless pacemaker (LP) implantation. However, reports of patient characteristics, trends, and clinical outcomes in a real-world population are limited.
Purpose
To provide real-world evidence of the rates, trends, and patient characteristics associated with in-hospital complications and 30-days readmission after LP implantations.
Methods
Using the all-payer, nationally representative Nationwide Readmissions Database between 2017 and 2019, we analyzed leadless or conventional pacemaker implantations. The national trends of in-hospital mortality, in-hospital complication rates and 30-day readmission rates after pacemaker implantation and their national trends were analyzed. Mixed-effects multivariable logistic regression analysis was performed to identify factors associated with in-hospital death and 30-days readmission in LP patients.
Results
A total of 137,732 admissions (age: 78 [70–85], 5,986 LP implantations) were analyzed (Figure 1). The in-hospital mortality, overall in-hospital complication rate, and 30-days readmission rates after LP implantations were 5.0%, 16%, and 16%, respectively. In LP recipients, the national estimate of in-hospital mortality declined from 10.9% in the second quarter of 2017 to 4.3% in the fourth quarter of 2019 (P<0.001) (Figure 2a). Furthermore, the national estimate of overall complication rate declined from 20.6% in the second quarter of 2017 to 13.0% in the fourth quarter of 2019 (P<0.001) (Figure 2b). Conversely, non-elective 30-day readmission rate did not show any increasing or decreasing trends in LP recipients (P=0.74) (Figure 2c). In LP recipients, female sex (odds ratio [OR] 1.42, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.04–1.93), history of heart failure (OR 2.02, 95% CI 1.46–2.79), and first quartile annual pacemaker implantation hospital volume (OR 2.49, 95% CI 1.56–3.97, fourth quartile annual pacemaker implantation hospital volume used as a reference standard) were factors associated with in-hospital death.
Conclusions
Analysis of the nationally representative claims database in the US showed in-hospital mortality, complication rates, and non-elective 30-day readmission rate of 5.0%, 16%, and 16% respectively, for LP implantation performed during hospitalization. Although in-hospital mortality and complication rates showed a decreasing trend over time, ongoing surveillance is needed for the safety of LP implantation.

Abstract
Abstract
Backgrounds
Evidence indicates a causal role of physical activity (PA), including steps, in decreasing cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk. However, few data exist on long-term steps and their relation to changes in CVD risk factors.
Objectives
To examine the associations of long-term smartphone-recorded steps and changes in CVD-related biomarkers in a large cohort of working aged adults.
Methods
The present analysis made use of data two national database and a commercial app database. Participants who underwent an annual health check-up between April 2015 and November 2020 and a second health check-up 24 to 35 months thereafter, and whose daily step data were available, were included. We evaluated the associations between smartphone-recorded daily steps over two years following the initial health check-up and two-year changes in the following CVD risk factors: weight, waist, blood pressure (BP), lipid and glucose metabolism biomarkers. Generalized additive models were used to investigate the non-linear relationships of steps and changes in CVD risks. Models were adjusted for baseline steps and other confounders. The present study design is summarized in Figure 1.
Results
A total of 15,708 participants with mean (SD) age of 44.1 (9.5) and 23.5% women were included. Differences in weight were almost linearly associated with two-year steps in men (estimate [SE] per 1000 steps/day: −0.33 [0.029] kg), and inversely related only above 5,000 steps/day in women (−0.18 [0.054] kg) (Figure 2). Similar trends were observed in waist. An inverse linear association with systolic BP was observed in men (−0.34 [0.097] mmHg) but not in women. Greater steps were associated with favorable change in HDL cholesterol and triglycerides (0.61 [0.068] and −3.4 [0.61] mg/dL in men; 0.64 [0.17] and −2.3 [0.67] mg/dL in women), while negative changes in LDL cholesterol was evident in men only (−0.59 [0.17] mg/dL). A significant negative association with HbA1c was observed only in women (−0.012 [0.0043] %). In the secondary analyses of the associations between one-year steps and one-year (i.e., 12 to 23 months) changes in CVD related biomarkers (N=26,884), the relationships were weaker and less robust compared with those in two-year analyses.
Conclusions
In a large cohort of Japanese adults, smartphone-recorded steps over years were associated with beneficial changes in CVD risk factors, with some differences between men and women in the associational patterns. The sex differences might highlight the undercount of steps among women who may be less likely to always carry their phone [1], or true sex differences in the effects of steps. The findings support the benefit of long-term PA for CVD health and suggest a useful role of smartphone-recorded steps for monitoring CVD risk over the long term.

Abstract
A precise measurement of the cosmic-ray proton spectrum with the Calorimetric Electron Telescope (CALET) is presented in the energy interval from 50 GeV to 60 TeV, and the observation of a softening of the spectrum above 10 TeV is reported. The analysis is based on the data collected during ∼6.2 years of smooth operations aboard the International Space Station and covers a broader energy range with respect to the previous proton flux measurement by CALET, with an increase of the available statistics by a factor of ∼2.2. Above a few hundred GeV we confirm our previous observation of a progressive spectral hardening with a higher significance (more than 20 sigma). In the multi-TeV region we observe a second spectral feature with a softening around 10 TeV and a spectral index change from -2.6 to -2.9 consistently, within the errors, with the shape of the spectrum reported by DAMPE. We apply a simultaneous fit of the proton differential spectrum which well reproduces the gradual change of the spectral index encompassing the lower energy power-law regime and the two spectral features observed at higher energies.

Abstract
Although geographical differences in the distribution of human papillomavirus genotypes have been observed worldwide, no studies have reported on national differences in the prevalence of human papillomavirus types in Japan. Here, we report a cross-sectional study to explore regional differences in the prevalence of human papillomavirus types among Japanese women with cervical intraepithelial neoplasia or invasive cervical cancer. Using human papillomavirus genotyping data from the nationwide prospective study on human papillomavirus vaccine effectiveness, we compared the frequency of detection of 15 high-risk and two low-risk human papillomavirus types in each disease category between the women who visited hospitals located in eastern Japan and those who visited hospitals located in western Japan. The risk of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia progression was assessed by calculating a prevalence ratio of each human papillomavirus type for cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 2/3 versus grade 1. Among the human papillomavirus types studied, human papillomavirus 52 was detected significantly more frequently in western hospitals than in eastern hospitals in cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 1 patients, but was less frequent in cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 2/3. The prevalence of particular human papillomavirus types was not significantly different between patients in hospitals in eastern Japan and those in hospitals in western Japan for invasive cervical cancer. In both eastern and western hospitals, a higher risk of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia progression was observed in patients infected with human papillomavirus 16, 31 or 58. In contrast, there was a significantly higher prevalence of human papillomavirus 52 infection in women with cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 2/3 than in those with cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 1 in eastern hospitals (prevalence ratio, 1.93; 95% confidence interval, 1.48-2.58), but not in western hospitals (prevalence ratio, 1.03; 95% confidence interval, 0.83-1.30). Regional differences of human papillomavirus 52 prevalence in cervical intraepithelial neoplasia lesions may exist and emphasize the importance of continuous monitoring of human papillomavirus type prevalence throughout the country in order to accurately assess the efficacy of human papillomavirus vaccines.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Endometriosis is assumed to be involved in ovarian cancer development, which is called endometriosis-associated ovarian cancer (EAOC). Uterine endometrial cells may be the cell of origin of EAOC. Accumulated carcinogenic changes in the uterine endometrial cells may increase the risk of developing EAOC. To further understand the pathogenesis of EAOCs, we focused on the clinicopathological characteristics of EAOCs in endometrial cancer patients with concomitant endometriosis.
Methods
We retrospectively reviewed 376 patients who were surgically treated for stage I–III endometrial cancer. Clinicopathological characteristics were compared between patients with and without endometriosis. Furthermore, the incidence of simultaneous endometrial and ovarian cancer (SEOC) and the histological characteristics of SEOC were compared between the two groups.
Results
Among 376 patients with endometrial cancer, 51 had concomitant endometriosis. Patients with endometriosis were significantly younger and more frequently had endometrioid G1/G2 tumors than those without endometriosis. The incidence of SEOCs was significantly higher in endometrial cancer patients with endometriosis than those without it (p < 0.0001); notably, 12 of 51 endometrial cancer patients with endometriosis (24%) had SEOCs. All of the ovarian cancers in endometrial cancer patients with endometriosis were endometrioid carcinomas. Moreover, even in those without endometriosis, endometrioid carcinoma was the most common histological type of SEOC.
Conclusion
We revealed that endometrial cancer patients with endometriosis had a high probability of SEOC and that endometrioid carcinoma was the most common histological subtype of SEOC regardless of the presence of endometriosis. For patients with endometrial cancer and endometriosis, careful examination of ovarian endometriotic lesions may be important to detect EAOCs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Limited information is available on the relevant prognostic variables after surgery for patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) subjected to neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT). NACT is known to induce a spectrum of histological changes in PDAC. Different grading regression systems are currently available; unfortunately, they lack precision and accuracy. We aimed to identify a new quantitative prognostic index based on tumor morphology. PATIENTS AND METHODS The study population was composed of 69 patients with resectable or borderline resectable PDAC treated with preoperative NACT (neoadjuvant group) and 36 patients submitted to upfront surgery (upfront-surgery group). A comprehensive histological assessment on hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) stained sections evaluated 20 morphological parameters. The association between patient survival and morphological variables was evaluated to generate a prognostic index. RESULTS The distribution of morphological parameters evaluated was significantly different between upfront-surgery and neoadjuvant groups, demonstrating the effect of NACT on tumor morphology. On multivariate analysis for patients that received NACT, the predictors of shorter overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) were perineural invasion and lymph node ratio. Conversely, high stroma to neoplasia ratio predicted longer OS and DFS. These variables were combined to generate a semiquantitative prognostic index based on both OS and DFS, which significantly distinguished patients with poor outcomes from those with a good outcome. Bootstrap analysis confirmed the reproducibility of the model. CONCLUSIONS The pathologic prognostic index proposed is mostly quantitative in nature, easy to use, and may represent a reliable tumor regression grading system to predict patient outcomes after NACT followed by surgery for PDAC.

Abstract
BackgroundRheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic inflammatory autoimmune disease that causes not only joint pain but also bone destruction resulting in impairment of quality of life. Tumor necrosis factor inhibitors have improved prognosis of patients with rheumatoid arthritis dramatically, especially in combination with methotrexate, however, the optimal dose of the concomitant methotrexate is unclear.ObjectivesTo evaluate the efficacy and safety of adalimumab in combination with reduced dose of methotrexate in patients with early RA with inadequate response to methotrexate.MethodsThe MIRACLE study was a multinational, randomized, open-label study in patients with RA with inadequate response to methotrexate conducted in Asia. It compared low dose and high dose methotrexate upon starting adalimumab. Methotrexate-naive patients with RA with a disease duration of less than two years started methotrexate at 6 to 8 mg/week and increased it to the maximum tolerable dose by week 12. Patients who have not achieved remission according to simplified disease activity index (SDAI) despite methotrexate ≥ 10 mg/week at week 24 were randomised to the maximum tolerable dose of methotrexate group (10 to 25 mg/week) or the reduced dose group (6 to 8 mg/week) and started to receive subcutaneous adalimumab 40 mg every other week. The primary endpoint was non-inferiority in the achievement of SDAI remission at week 48 in the reduced dose group compared with the maximum tolerable dose group with a non-inferiority margin of -15% based on two-sided 90% confidence interval. (NCT03505008)ResultsA total of 300 patients were enrolled in the study. Among them, 291 started methotrexate and were included in the analysis. The mean age was 57.7±15.2 years, female was 74.6%, and the mean disease duration from the diagnosis of RA was 21.1±56.2 days. Anti-CCP antibody was positive in 211 (73.0%) and the mean SDAI at study enrollment was 26.5±12.4. At week 24, with the mean dose of methotrexate of 12.6±2.9 mg/week, 108 patients (37.1%) achieved remission according to SDAI and continued MTX monotherapy. 134 patients (46.0%) were randomised and started adalimumab with 68 patients in the maximum tolerable dose group and 66 patients in the reduced dose group. At week 48, the remission achievement rates were 38.4 % and 44.8 %, respectively, with the adjusted risk difference of the reduced dose group to the maximum tolerable dose group of 6.4% (-7.0% to 19.8%, 90% CI), which met the criterion for noninferiority. No significant difference was found in health assessment questionnaire disability index ≤0.5 (59.1% vs 62.0%, respectively, p=0.72) and in radiological remission rates (Δmodified total Sharp score ≤0.5, 66.3% vs 62.0 %, respectively, p=0.59). Adverse drug reactions tended to be more frequent in the maximum tolerable dose group than in the reduced dose group (22.1% vs 9.1%, respectively, p=0.06).ConclusionThe MIRACLE randomised study demonstrated that, in patients with inadequate response to methotrexate, the efficacy of adalimumab with reduced dose of concomitant methotrexate was not inferior to that with maximum tolerable dose of methotrexate with better safety profile.Disclosure of InterestsHiroya Tamai Speakers bureau: Eisai, Grant/research support from: Eisai, Kei Ikeda Speakers bureau: AbbVie, Eisai, Eli Lilly, Novartis, Gilead, Asahi-Kasei, Grant/research support from: Mitsubishi-Tanabe, Toshiaki Miyamoto: None declared, Hiroaki Taguchi: None declared, Chang-Fu Kuo: None declared, Kichul Shin: None declared, Shintaro Hirata Speakers bureau: AbbVie, Asahi-Kasei, Astellas, Ayumi, Bristol Myers Squibb, Celgene, Chugai, Eisai, Eli Lilly, Gilead, Glaxo SmithKline, Janssen, Kyorin, Novartis, Pfizer, Sanofi, Tanabe-Mitsubishi, UCB, Paid instructor for: AbbVie, Mitsubishi-Tanabe, Consultant of: AbbVie, Astellas, Bristol Myers Squibb, Eisai, Gilead, Ily Lilly, Grant/research support from: AbbVie, Asahi-Kasei, Eisai, Otsuka, Sanofi, Shionogi, Chugai, Pfizer, Tanabe-Mitsubishi, Eli Lilly, UCB, yutaka okano: None declared, Shinji Sato Speakers bureau: AbbVie, Eisai, Grant/research support from: AbbVie, Eisai, Hidekata Yasuoka Speakers bureau: AbbVie, Asahi Kasei Pharma, Astellas, Daiichi-Sankyo, Eisai, Kissei, Takeda, Mitsubishi-Tanabe, Chugai, Novartis, Eli Lilly, Pfizer, Janssen, Sanofi, Teijin, Boehringer-Ingelheim, Bayer, Glaxo Smith Kline, Paid instructor for: AbbVie, Consultant of: AbbVie, Asahi Kasei, Grant/research support from: Mitsubishi-Tanabe, Takeda, Daiichi-Sankyo, Chugai, Bristol-Myers, MSD, Astellas, In Ah Choi Speakers bureau: Abbvie, Eisai, Sung-Hwan Park: None declared, Meng-Yu Weng Paid instructor for: Novartis, Eli Lilly, ChuGai, Abbvie, Consultant of: Abbvie, Masataka Kuwana Speakers bureau: Astellas, Asahi Kasei Pharma, Boehringer-Ingelheim, Chugai, Eisai, Janssen, Mochida, Nippon Shinyaku, Ono Pharmaceuticals, Pfizer, Mitsubishi-Tanabe, Consultant of: Boehringer-Ingelheim, Kissei, Mochida, Grant/research support from: AbbVie, Asahi Kasei Pharma, Boehringer-Ingelheim, Chugai, Eisai, MBL, Nippon Shinyaku, Ono Pharmaceuticals, Mitsubishi-Tanabe, Yun Jong Lee Grant/research support from: Yuhan, Tomonori Ishii Speakers bureau: Chugai, Mitsubishi-Tanabe, Glaxo Smith Kline, Pfizer, Eli Lilly, Janssen, AbbVie, Eisai, Astellas, Jinhyun Kim: None declared, Hideto Kameda Speakers bureau: AbbVie, Pfizer, Consultant of: AbbVie, Grant/research support from: AbbVie, Eisai, Toshihisa Kojima Speakers bureau: AbbVie, Pfizer, Eisai, Grant/research support from: AbbVie, Han Joo Baek: None declared, Ping-Ning Hsu: None declared, Chun-Ming Huang Paid instructor for: Abbvie, Pfizer, Tien-Tsai Cheng Paid instructor for: Abbvie, Grant/research support from: Abbvie, Wan-Yu Sung: None declared, Takehiro Taninaga Shareholder of: Eisai.co.,Ltd., Employee of: Eisai.co.,Ltd., Masahiko Mori Shareholder of: Eisai.co.,Ltd., Employee of: Eisai.co.,Ltd., Hideaki Miyagishi Shareholder of: Eisai.co.,Ltd., Employee of: Eisai.co.,Ltd., Yasunori Sato Speakers bureau: Eisai Co., Ltd.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Although the incidence of febrile neutropenia (FN) is relatively higher for doxorubicin and cisplatin combination regimen than for other regimens in endometrial cancer, evidence regarding the efficacy of pegfilgrastim in this regimen is lacking. MATERIALS AND METHODS We retrospectively reviewed the data of 58 patients with endometrial cancer who were treated with doxorubicin plus cisplatin. The patients were divided into primary prophylaxis and non-prophylaxis groups. We compared the incidence of FN and neutropenia as well as the chemotherapy relative dose intensity (RDI) and usage of antibiotics between the groups. RESULTS The rates of FN (8.0% vs. 34.8%) and grade 4 neutropenia (12.0% vs. 87.0%) were significantly lower in the primary prophylaxis group. Although there was no difference in the RDI between the groups, the primary prophylaxis group had a lower rate of antibiotic prescriptions. CONCLUSION Prophylaxis with pegfilgrastim efficiently prevented FN in patients treated with doxorubicin and cisplatin.

Direct Measurement of the Nickel Spectrum in Cosmic Rays in the Energy Range from 8.8 GeV/n to 240 GeV/n with CALET on the International Space Station. Phys Rev Lett 2022; 128:131103.

Abstract
The relative abundance of cosmic ray nickel nuclei with respect to iron is by far larger than for all other transiron elements; therefore it provides a favorable opportunity for a low background measurement of its spectrum. Since nickel, as well as iron, is one of the most stable nuclei, the nickel energy spectrum and its relative abundance with respect to iron provide important information to estimate the abundances at the cosmic ray source and to model the Galactic propagation of heavy nuclei. However, only a few direct measurements of cosmic-ray nickel at energy larger than ∼3 GeV/n are available at present in the literature, and they are affected by strong limitations in both energy reach and statistics. In this Letter, we present a measurement of the differential energy spectrum of nickel in the energy range from 8.8 to 240 GeV/n, carried out with unprecedented precision by the Calorimetric Electron Telescope (CALET) in operation on the International Space Station since 2015. The CALET instrument can identify individual nuclear species via a measurement of their electric charge with a dynamic range extending far beyond iron (up to atomic number Z=40). The particle's energy is measured by a homogeneous calorimeter (1.2 proton interaction lengths, 27 radiation lengths) preceded by a thin imaging section (3 radiation lengths) providing tracking and energy sampling. This Letter follows our previous measurement of the iron spectrum [1O. Adriani et al. (CALET Collaboration), Phys. Rev. Lett. 126, 241101 (2021).PRLTAO0031-900710.1103/PhysRevLett.126.241101], and it extends our investigation on the energy dependence of the spectral index of heavy elements. It reports the analysis of nickel data collected from November 2015 to May 2021 and a detailed assessment of the systematic uncertainties. In the region from 20 to 240 GeV/n our present data are compatible within the errors with a single power law with spectral index -2.51±0.07.

Abstract
Background Pseudomyxoma peritonei is a rare disease condition mainly caused by primary mucinous tumors from the appendix and rarely from the ovary, such as when mucinous ovarian tumors arise from within a teratoma. Molecular analyses of pseudomyxoma from the appendix showed that KRAS and GNAS pathogenic variants are common genetic features of pseudomyxoma peritonei. However, the origin of the tumors is difficult to be identified via genetic variants alone. This study presents a case of pseudomyxoma peritonei of ovarian origin, which was diagnosed by comprehensive genomic profiling with ploidy analysis in a series of primary, recurrent, and autopsy tumor specimens. Case presentation A 40-year-old woman was diagnosed with Stage IC2 mucinous ovarian tumor of borderline malignancy with mature cystic teratoma, upon clinical pathology. Immunohistochemical analysis suggested that the mucinous tumor was derived from the intestinal component of an ovarian teratoma. Three years later, intraperitoneal recurrence was detected, which subsequently progressed to pseudomyxoma peritonei. Genomic analysis detected KRAS (G12D), GNAS (R201C), and FBXW7 (R367*) variants in the primary tumor. In addition, the tumor showed aneuploidy with loss of heterozygosity (LOH) in all its chromosomes, which suggested that the primary ovarian tumor was derived from germ cells. Existence of one Barr body suggested the existence of uniparental disomy of the tumors throughout the genome, instead of a haploid genotype. All three pathogenic variants remained positive in the initial recurrent tumor, as well as in the paired DNA from the whole blood in pseudomyxoma peritonei. The pathogenic variant of KRAS (G12D) was also identified in the autopsy specimen of the appendix by droplet digital polymerase chain reaction. Conclusions This study pathologically and genetically confirmed that the primary ovarian borderline tumor was derived from the intestinal component of an ovarian teratoma, and that the subsequent pseudomyxoma peritonei progressed from the primary ovarian tumor. Integrative genomic analysis was useful to identify cellular origin of tumors, as well as to precisely interpret the process of disease progression.

Abstract
AbstractThe possibility that Arctic sea ice loss weakens mid-latitude westerlies, promoting more severe cold winters, has sparked more than a decade of scientific debate, with apparent support from observations but inconclusive modelling evidence. Here we show that sixteen models contributing to the Polar Amplification Model Intercomparison Project simulate a weakening of mid-latitude westerlies in response to projected Arctic sea ice loss. We develop an emergent constraint based on eddy feedback, which is 1.2 to 3 times too weak in the models, suggesting that the real-world weakening lies towards the higher end of the model simulations. Still, the modelled response to Arctic sea ice loss is weak: the North Atlantic Oscillation response is similar in magnitude and offsets the projected response to increased greenhouse gases, but would only account for around 10% of variations in individual years. We further find that relationships between Arctic sea ice and atmospheric circulation have weakened recently in observations and are no longer inconsistent with those in models.

Abstract
Introduction The albumin-bilirubin (ALBI) grade is a novel indicator of the liver function. Some studies showed that the ALBI grade was a prognostic and predictive biomarker for the efficacy of chemotherapy in cancer patients. The association between the ALBI grade and outcomes in patients with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) treated with cancer immunotherapy, however, is poorly understood. Methods We retrospectively enrolled 452 patients with advanced or recurrent NSCLC who received anti-programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1)-based therapy between 2016 and 2019 at three medical centers in Japan. The ALBI score was calculated from albumin and bilirubin measured at the time of treatment initiation and was stratified into three categories, ALBI grade 1-3, with reference to previous reports. We examined the clinical impact of the ALBI grade on the outcomes of NSCLC patients receiving anti-PD-1-based therapy using Kaplan–Meier survival curve analysis with log-rank test and Cox proportional hazards regression analysis. Results The classifications of the 452 patients were as follows: grade 1, n = 158 (35.0%); grade 2, n = 271 (60.0%); and grade 3, n = 23 (5.0%). Kaplan–Meier survival curve analysis showed that the ALBI grade was significantly associated with progression-free survival and overall survival. Moreover, Cox regression analysis revealed that the ALBI grade was an independent prognostic factor for progression-free survival and overall survival. Conclusion The ALBI grade was an independent prognostic factor for survival in patients with advanced or recurrent NSCLC who receive anti-PD-1-based therapy. These findings should be validated in a prospective study with a larger sample size. ALBI grade is calculated from albumin and bilirubin. We evaluated the impact of ALBI grade on survival in NSCLC patients receiving immune checkpoint inhibitors. ALBI grade was an independent prognostic factor for progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS). ALBI grade effectively stratified PFS and OS in patients with performance status 1-3. ALBI grade was significantly associated with PFS and OS, regardless of programmed death ligand-1.

Abstract
Hybridization of Bogoliubov quasiparticles (BQPs) between the CuO_{2} layers in the triple-layer cuprate high-temperature superconductor Bi_{2}Sr_{2}Cu_{2}Cu_{3}O_{10+δ} is studied by angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES). In the superconducting state, an anticrossing gap opens between the outer- and inner-BQP bands, which we attribute primarily to interlayer single-particle hopping with possible contributions from interlayer Cooper pairing. We find that the d-wave superconducting gap of both BQP bands smoothly develops with momentum without an abrupt jump in contrast to a previous ARPES study. Hybridization between the BQPs also gradually increases in going from the off nodal to the antinodal region, which is explained by the momentum dependence of the interlayer single-particle hopping. As possible mechanisms for the enhancement of the superconducting transition temperature, the hybridization between the BQPs as well as the combination of phonon modes of the triple CuO_{2} layers and spin fluctuations represented by a four-well model are discussed.

Abstract
IMPORTANCE The severity of oxaliplatin (L-OHP)-induced peripheral sensory neuropathy (PSN) exhibits substantial interpatient variability, and some patients suffer from long-term, persisting PSN. OBJECTIVE To identify single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) predicting L-OHP-induced PSN using a genome-wide association study (GWAS) approach. DESIGN, SETTING, PARTICIPANTS A large prospective GWAS including 1,379 patients with stage II/III colon cancer who received L-OHP-based adjuvant chemotherapy (mFOLFOX6/CAPOX) under the phase II (JOIN/JFMC41) or the phase III (ACHIVE/JFMC47) trial. MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURES First, GWAS comparison of worst grade PSN (grade 0/1 vs. 2/3) was performed. Next, to minimize the impact of ambiguity in PSN grading, extreme PSN phenotypes were selected and analyzed by GWAS. SNPs that could predict time to recovery from PSN were also evaluated. In addition, SNPs associated with L-OHP-induced allergic reactions (AR) and time to disease recurrence were explored. RESULTS No SNPs exceeded the genome-wide significance (p < 5.0 × 10-8) in either GWAS comparison of worst grade PSN, extreme PSN phenotypes, or time to recovery from PSN. Association study focusing on AR or time to disease recurrence also failed to reveal any significant SNPs. CONCLUSION AND RELEVANCE Our results highlight the challenges of utilizing SNPs for predicting susceptibility to L-OHP-induced PSN in daily clinical practice.

Abstract
The Calorimetric Electron Telescope (CALET), in operation on the International Space Station since 2015, collected a large sample of cosmic-ray iron over a wide energy interval. In this Letter a measurement of the iron spectrum is presented in the range of kinetic energy per nucleon from 10 GeV/n to 2.0 TeV/n allowing the inclusion of iron in the list of elements studied with unprecedented precision by space-borne instruments. The measurement is based on observations carried out from January 2016 to May 2020. The CALET instrument can identify individual nuclear species via a measurement of their electric charge with a dynamic range extending far beyond iron (up to atomic number Z=40). The energy is measured by a homogeneous calorimeter with a total equivalent thickness of 1.2 proton interaction lengths preceded by a thin (3 radiation lengths) imaging section providing tracking and energy sampling. The analysis of the data and the detailed assessment of systematic uncertainties are described and results are compared with the findings of previous experiments. The observed differential spectrum is consistent within the errors with previous experiments. In the region from 50 GeV/n to 2 TeV/n our present data are compatible with a single power law with spectral index -2.60±0.03.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Radiation-based therapy is widely used for advanced cervical cancer. Prior radiation-based therapy is a potential risk factor for febrile neutropenia (FN). However, the effect of irradiation field size on the incidence of FN during recurrent cervical cancer treatment is unclear. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between prior irradiation field size and FN development during recurrent chemotherapy. METHODS This retrospective, observational study included cervical cancer patients who received recurrent chemotherapy between November 2006 and June 2020. The patients were classified into two groups based on the area of irradiation fields. The first group included patients with a history of whole pelvis (WP) irradiation (WP group). The second group had patients who underwent WP plus para-aortic lymph node (PAN) irradiation (WP + PAN group). The incidences of hematological toxicities and FN during the recurrent chemoradiotherapy were compared between the two groups. RESULTS The FN incidence was significantly higher in the WP + PAN group than in the WP group (32.1% vs. 0%, P < 0.001). The incidence of Grade 4 neutropenia was not significantly different between the WP + PAN and WP groups. The nadir absolute neutrophil counts were significantly lower and the dose reduction or discontinuation rate of chemotherapy was significantly higher in the WP + PAN group than in the WP group. CONCLUSION History of WP plus PAN radiation is a risk factor for developing FN during recurrent cervical cancer chemotherapy.
