Abstract
BACKGROUND Recently, the Asian Working Group for Cachexia (AWGC) published a consensus statement on diagnostic criteria for cachexia in Asians. We aimed to validate the criteria in adult patients in Japan with advanced cancer. METHODS We conducted a single-institution retrospective cohort study between April 2021 and October 2022. The AWGC criteria include chronic comorbidities and either a weight loss of >2% over 3-6 months or a body mass index (BMI) of <21 kg/m2 . In addition, any of the following items were required: anorexia as a subjective symptom, decreased grip strength as an objective measurement and an elevated C-reactive protein (CRP) level as a biomarker. We used the cut-off value of grip strength of 28/18 kg for male/female individuals and CRP level of 5 mg/L. RESULTS Of the 449 consecutive patients, 85 of those who could not be evaluated because of end-of-life or refractory symptoms (n = 41) or missing data (n = 44) were excluded from the primary analysis. The prevalence of the AWGC-defined cachexia was 76% (n = 277), and the median survival time (MST) for all patients was 215 (95% confidence interval [CI] 145-270) days. The prevalence of the following criteria was significantly higher in patients with cachexia than in those without cachexia: a BMI of <21 kg/m2 (65% vs. 15%, P < 0.001), a weight loss of >2% in 6 months (87% vs. 14%, P < 0.001), anorexia (75% vs. 47%, P < 0.001), a grip strength of <28 kg in male individuals (63% vs. 28%, P < 0.001) and CRP level of >5 mg/L (85% vs. 56%, P < 0.001). Overall survival was significantly shorter in patients with cachexia than in those without cachexia (MST 157 days, 95% CI 108-226 days vs. MST 423 days, 95% CI 245 days to not available, P = 0.0023). The Cox proportional hazards analysis showed that best supportive care (hazard ratio [HR] 2.91, P ≤ 0.001), lung cancer (HR 1.67, P = 0.0046), an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group Performance Status score of ≥3 (HR 1.58, P = 0.016), AWGC-defined cachexia (HR 1.56, P = 0.015), an age of ≥70 years (HR 1.53, P = 0.0070), oedema (HR 1.31, P = 0.022) and head/neck cancer (HR 0.44, P = 0.023) were found to be the significant predictors for mortality. CONCLUSIONS We demonstrated that AWGC-defined cachexia has a significant prognostic value in advanced cancer.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS Data regarding the delivery of nutrition and nutritional infusions to patients with terminal cancer remain limited; therefore, this real-world analysis investigated differences in nutrition delivery and infusion statuses for patients with terminal-stage cancers. METHODS Patients who had died following hospitalization for more than seven days due to neoplasms between April 2014 and December 2018 were identified using the medical claims database of Japan. Data regarding oral diets, enteral feeding, infusion volumes, and infusion energies were extracted. The maximum observation period was 28 days prior to patient death. RESULTS A total of 12,908 patients were included in our analysis. The proportion of patients without dietary or enteral nutrition increased closer to their dates of death. Observations were recorded at 28 (18.9%), 21 (20.9%), 14 (24.6%), 7 (33.0%), and 0 (80.2%) days prior to death. The infusion volumes given to the patients, as well as their energy contents, decreased near death (P-value for the trend <0.001). CONCLUSIONS Our study revealed the current status of nutritional therapy for patients with terminal cancer in Japan. The number of patients receiving only parenteral nutrition increased near death, while the amount of nutritional intake was low.

Abstract
Accumulation of 4-hydroxynonenal (4-HNE), a marker of lipid peroxidation, has various favorable and unfavorable effects on cancer cells; however, the clinicopathological significance of its accumulation in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and its metabolic pathway remain unknown. This study analyzed 4-HNE accumulation and its clinicopathological significance in HCC. Of the 221 cases, 160 showed relatively low accumulation of 4-HNE in HCC tissues, which was an independent prognostic predictor. No correlation was found between 4-HNE accumulation and the expression of the antioxidant enzymes glutathione peroxidase 4, ferroptosis suppressor protein 1, and guanosine triphosphate cyclohydrolase 1. Therefore, we hypothesized that 4-HNE metabolism is up-regulated in HCC. A database search was focused on the transcriptional regulation of aldo-keto reductases, alcohol dehydrogenases, and glutathione-S-transferases, which are the metabolic enzymes of 4-HNE, and seven candidate transcription factor genes were selected. Among the candidate genes, the knockdown of SWI/SNF-related, matrix-associated, actin-dependent regulator of chromatin, subfamily a, member 4 (SMARCA4) increased 4-HNE accumulation. Immunohistochemical analysis revealed an inverse correlation between 4-HNE accumulation and SMARCA4 expression. These results suggest that SMARCA4 regulates 4-HNE metabolism in HCC. Therefore, targeting SMARCA4 provides a basis for a new therapeutic strategy for HCC via 4-HNE accumulation and increased cytotoxicity.

Abstract
Although vital pulp therapy should be performed by promoting the wound-healing capacity of dental pulp, existing pulp-capping materials were not developed with a focus on the pulpal repair process. In previous investigations of wound healing in dental pulp, we found that organic dentin matrix components (DMCs) were degraded by matrix metalloproteinase-20, and DMC degradation products containing protein S100A7 (S100A7) and protein S100A8 (S100A8) promoted the pulpal wound-healing process. However, the direct use of recombinant proteins as pulp-capping materials may cause clinical problems or lead to high medical costs. Thus, we hypothesized that functional peptides derived from recombinant proteins could solve the problems associated with direct use of such proteins. In this study, we identified functional peptides derived from the protein S100 family and investigated their effects on dental pulp tissue. We first performed amino acid sequence alignments of protein S100 family members from several mammalian sources, then identified candidate peptides. Next, we used a peptide array method that involved human dental pulp stem cells (hDPSCs) to evaluate the mineralization-inducing ability of each peptide. Our results supported the selection of 4 candidate functional peptides derived from proteins S100A8 and S100A9. Direct pulp-capping experiments in a rat model demonstrated that 1 S100A8-derived peptide induced greater tertiary dentin formation compared with the other peptides. To investigate the mechanism underlying this induction effect, we performed liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry analysis using hDPSCs and the S100A8-derived peptide; the results suggested that this peptide promotes tertiary dentin formation by inhibiting inflammatory responses. In addition, this peptide was located in a hairpin region on the surface of S100A8 and could function by direct interaction with other molecules. In summary, this study demonstrated that a S100A8-derived functional peptide promoted wound healing in dental pulp; our findings provide insights for the development of next-generation biological vital pulp therapies.

Abstract
Multi-targeted tyrosine kinase inhibitors have been developed for the treatment of various cancers, but they are associated with a significant incidence of idiosyncratic drug reactions (IDRs). There is compelling evidence that most IDRs are immune mediated. Activation of inflammasomes is often one of the early steps in the initiation of an immune response. This activation could involve the pharmacological effect of the drug, or it could involve the release of damage associated molecular patters (DAMPs) caused by a reactive metabolite. We tested whether sunitinib, regorafenib, lenvatinib and cabozantinib can directly activate inflammasomes in differentiated THP-1 cells. We found that regorafenib activated the inflammasome of differentiated THP-1 cells directly. We also found that the supernatant from the incubation of sunitinib with FLC-4 cells, which have a high capacity to metabolize drugs, led to activate the inflammasome of differentiated THP-1 cells. In the supernatant of FLC-4 cells with sunitinib, the heat shock protein (HSP) 90 was significantly increased. Sunitinib is known to be oxidized to generate a reactive, potentially toxic quinone imine. These results support the hypothesis that the reactive metabolite of sunitinib can cause the release of DAMPs from hepatocytes, which leads to activation of inflammasomes. Inflammasome activation may be an important step in the activation of the immune system by regorafenib and sunitinib, which in some patients, can cause IDRs.

Abstract
PURPOSE A high score determined by SARC-F, a simple screening questionnaire for sarcopenia, has been reportedly associated with worse medical outcomes. However, information regarding whether high SARC-F scores are associated with a poor prognosis in patients with advanced cancer remains limited. We clarified whether a SARC-F score ≥ 4 predicts poor prognosis in patients with cancer receiving palliative care. METHODS We conducted a retrospective cohort study of patients with cancer who received palliative care at a university hospital between May 2019 and April 2020. Patient characteristics including age, sex, height, weight, cancer type, serum albumin level, C-reactive protein level, presence of edema, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group-Performance Status (ECOG-PS), SARC-F score, history of anticancer therapy, and clinical outcomes were collected from electronic medical records. RESULTS Of 304 patients, 188 had a SARC-F score < 4, and 116 patients had a SARC-F score ≥ 4. The overall survival of patients with a SARC-F score ≥ 4 was 40 days (95% CI 29-47), which was significantly worse than 121 days (95% CI 95-156) for patients with a SARC-F score < 4 (p < 0.001). SARC-F score ≥ 4 (hazard ratio: HR 1.56), edema (HR 1.94), head and neck cancer (HR 0.51), C-reactive protein (HR 1.05), ECOG-PS ≥ 3 (HR 1.47), and radiotherapy (HR 0.52) were associated with overall survival. The ability to climb stairs was a SARC-F sub-item significantly associated with mortality (HR 1.59). CONCLUSION The SARC-F questionnaire is a useful predictor of prognosis for patients with cancer receiving palliative care because a SARC-F ≥ 4 score predicts worse overall survival.

Abstract
A Dirac electron system in solids mimics relativistic quantum physics that is compatible with Maxwell's equations, with which we anticipate unified electromagnetic responses. We find a large orbital diamagnetism only along the interplane direction and a nearly temperature-independent electrical conductivity of the order of e^{2}/h per plane for the new 2D Dirac organic conductor, α-(BETS)_{2}I_{3}, where BETS is bis(ethylenedithio)tetraselenafulvalene. Unlike conventional electrons in solids whose nonrelativistic effects bifurcate electric and magnetic responses, the observed orbital diamagnetism scales with the electrical conductivity in a wide temperature range. This demonstrates that an electromagnetic duality that is valid only within the relativistic framework is revived in solids.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To examine the relationship between sarcopenia and fecal incontinence in patients with dysphagia. DESIGN Cross-sectional study using the Japanese sarcopenic dysphagia database. SETTING 19 hospitals including 9 acute care hospitals, 8 rehabilitation hospitals, 2 long-term care hospitals, and 1 home visit rehabilitation center. PARTICIPANTS 460 dysphagic patients, aged 20 years and older. MEASUREMENTS Sarcopenia was diagnosed by the 2019 criteria of the Asian Working Group for Sarcopenia. Fecal incontinence was assessed by health care professionals at baseline according to the definition of the Japanese Practice Guidelines for Fecal Incontinence. We examined whether there was a significant difference between the rate of fecal incontinence in patients with/without sarcopenia. Age, sex, type of dwelling, Barthel index, Charlson comorbidity index (CCI), calf circumference, handgrip strength, body mass index, malnourishment, C-reactive protein level, serum albumin level, and delivery of enteral nutrition by nasogastric and/or gastrostomy tube were measured. To examine the relationship between sarcopenia and fecal incontinence, logistic regression analysis was performed with adjustments for age, sex, sarcopenia, CCI, enteral nutrition, and dwelling. RESULTS The mean age of patients was 81 ± 10 years. Of the 460 study patients, 404 (88%) patients had sarcopenia and 104 had fecal incontinence (23%). The rate of fecal incontinence was higher in the sarcopenia group than the non-sarcopenia group (25% vs. 7%, P = 0.003). Logistic regression analysis showed that sarcopenia was independently associated with fecal incontinence (odds ratio: 3.114, 95% confidence interval: 1.045, 9.282). CONCLUSION The prevalence of fecal incontinence was 23% in patients with dysphagia. Sarcopenia was independently associated with fecal incontinence, which suggests the presence of anal sarcopenia. Defecation control should be assessed in patients with sarcopenia.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES People with cancer have a high risk of cachexia and sarcopenia, which are associated with worse clinical outcomes. We evaluated the prediction accuracy of the Matsuyama et al. and Ishida et al. formulas using computed tomography (CT) slices from the twelfth thoracic vertebra (Th12) level in people with cancer. METHODS This retrospective study included patients with advanced cancer who underwent thoracic and abdominal CT scans (n = 173). The cross-sectional area (CSA) on CT images was measured at the levels of Th12 and the third lumbar vertebra (L3). The Matsuyama et al. formula used the Th12 CSA, whereas the Ishida et al. formula used only the Th12 CSA of the spinal erectors; thus, the measurements were performed separately. The correlation between predicted and actual L3 CSA was assessed using r and the intraclass correlation coefficient. A prediction-accuracy analysis of the predicted values was also performed. RESULTS The mean participant age was 66.2 ± 12.8 y; 50.3% of participants were women and 49.7% were men. Strong correlations were observed between the predicted and measured L3 values calculated from the two prediction formulas. The prediction-accuracy analysis using previously reported cutoff values showed that the Ishida et al. method had high sensitivity and the Matsuyama et al. method had high specificity for low skeletal muscle index determined by the predicted and measured L3 skeletal muscle index. CONCLUSIONS Both the Matsuyama et al. and Ishida et al. formulas had good reliability on CT slices at the Th12 level in people with advanced cancer, indicating that these formulas can be applied in clinical practice.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To describe the activity and evaluate the quality of the Japanese sarcopenic dysphagia database. DESIGN Cohort registry study. SETTING 19 hospitals including 9 acute care hospitals, 8 rehabilitation hospitals, 2 long-term care hospitals, and 1 home visit rehabilitation team. PARTICIPANTS 467 dysphagic patients, aged 20 years and older. MEASUREMENTS The following indices were assessed at baseline: age, sex, main disease, sarcopenic dysphagia, whole body sarcopenia, Food Intake Level Scale (FILS), malnutrition diagnosed by the Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition criteria, oral status assessed by the Revised Oral Assessment Guide or the Oral Health Assessment Tool, activities of daily living assessed by the Functional Independence Measure (FIM) or the Barthel Index (BI), Charlson comorbidity index, C-reactive protein and serum albumin levels, dysarthria, hoarseness, aphasia, pressure ulcers, bladder, bowel, and kidney function, respiratory status, polypharmacy, number of drugs, and involvement of health care professionals and rehabilitation nutrition team. FILS, FIM or BI, and outcome including discharge destination were assessed at follow-up. A simple comparison of cases and evaluation of the quality of data were performed. RESULTS The mean age was 80.4 ± 11.4 yr. The variable input error was 0. The number of patients with missing data was high for estimated glomerular filtration rate, C-reactive protein, serum albumin, skeletal mass index, and tongue pressure. The prevalence of either probable, possible, or no sarcopenic dysphagia was 105 (23%), 182 (39%), or 179 (38%), respectively. Doctors including physiatrists, nurses, physical therapists, and registered dietitians were involved with most patients, while the rehabilitation nutrition team was involved in only 16% of patients. CONCLUSIONS The quality of the database was relatively high. Sarcopenic dysphagia is common in patients with dysphagia.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Community-dwelling older adults with sarcopenia are likely to fall. However, few studies have investigated whether sarcopenia is associated with falls during hospitalization in older adults. The purpose of this study was to determine whether the SARC-F when used as a simple screening tool for sarcopenia at the time of admission, predicts in-hospital falls. DESIGN A retrospective, observational study. SETTING A 900-bed university hospital. PARTICIPANTS A total of 9,927 patients aged 65 years and older were hospitalized at the hospital between April 2019 and March 2020. MEASUREMENTS The SARC-F contains five items: strength, assistance in walking, rise from a chair, climb stairs, and falls were evaluated at hospital admission. To investigate the relationship between the SARC-F score and falls, a ROC curve analysis was performed. Multivariate analysis adjusted for fall-related confounding factors such as age, gender, ADL, and disease were performed. RESULTS Mean age: 75.9±6.7 years; male: 56.2% were analyzed, and 159 patients (1.6%) fell during hospitalization. SARC-F scores at admission were significantly higher in the fall group than in the control group (3 [1-6] points vs. 0 [¬0-2] point, p<0.001). Statistical association was observed between the SARC-F and in-hospital fall (area under the curve = 0.721 [0.678-0.764], p < 0.001). The cut-off value for the highest sensitivity and specificity of the SARC-F score for in-hospital falls was two (sensitivity = 0.679, specificity = 0.715). Among the subitem of the SARC-F, the hazard ratios for climbing stairs were significantly higher (HR = 1.52 [1.10-2.09], p = 0.011) and for a history of fall was significantly higher (HR = 1.41 [1.02-1.95], p = 0.036). A SARC-F score ≥ 2 had a significantly higher incidence of in-hospital falls compared to a SARC-F score <2 (3.7% vs. 0.7%, p < 0.001). Also, a SARC-F score ≥ 2 had a significantly higher hazard ratio for falls (2.11 [1.37-3.26], p < 0.001). CONCLUSION SARC-F can help predict falls among hospitalized older adults.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aimed to create a formula to estimate the third lumbar vertebra (L3)1 level skeletal muscle cross-sectional area (CSA), known as a standard value to evaluate skeletal muscle mass on computed tomography (CT), using the twelfth thoracic vertebra (Th12) level skeletal muscle CSA on chest CT. MATERIALS AND METHODS This retrospective observational study included patients aged 40 + years with a diagnosis of oral squamous cell carcinoma (n = 164). Skeletal muscle CSA on CT images was measured using the Th12 and the L3 levels of pretreatment CT scans. The predictive formula was created based on the five-fold cross-validation method with a linear regression model. Correlations between the predicted L3-level CSA and the actual L3-level CSA were evaluated using r and Intraclass Correlation Coefficients (ICC). RESULTS The predictive formula for L3-level CSA from Th12-level CSA was: CSA at L3 (cm2) = 14.143 + 0.779 * CSA at Th12 (cm2) - 0.212 * Age (y) + 0.502 * Weight (kg) + 13.763 * Sex. Correlations between the predicted and measured L3-level CSA were r = 0.915 [0.886-0.937] and ICC = 0.911 [0.881-0.934]. CONCLUSION We developed a formula for predicting skeletal muscle mass from the Th12-level CT slice. The predicted L3-level CSA correlated with the measured L3-level CSA.

Abstract
AIM The Geriatric Nutritional Risk Index (GNRI) can predict nutritional risk. However, just a few studies have validated the optimal cut-off value of GNRI for nutrition screening in older patients. Hence, this study aimed to determine the optimal value of GNRI to screen the risk of malnutrition among older patients. METHODS This retrospective cross-sectional study was carried out with 5867 consecutive older adult patients who were admitted to an academic hospital in Japan. Receiver operating characteristic curve analyses were carried out to obtain the optimal cut-off value of GNRI, and the results were compared against the Mini Nutritional Assessment - Short Form and Malnutrition Universal Screening Tool. The validation of the obtained cut-off value was examined on the concordance rate of malnutrition diagnosis based on the European Society of Clinical Nutrition and Metabolism criteria. RESULTS The mean age of the patients was 76.0 ± 7.0 years. The optimal cut-off value of GNRI for Mini Nutritional Assessment - Short Form ≤11 points was 95.92 (area under the curve 0.827 [0.817-0.838], P < 0.001), and that for Malnutrition Universal Screening Tool ≥1 point was 95.95 (area under the curve 0.788 [0.776-0.799], P < 0.001). By adapting GNRI <96 points as an initial screening cut-off in the European Society of Clinical Nutrition and Metabolism-defined malnutrition process, the concordance rates of comparisons were 98.5% and 98.5% for Mini Nutritional Assessment - Short Form-based and MUST-based diagnosis, respectively. CONCLUSIONS The study showed GNRI <96 points as the optimal cut-off value for nutritional screening. GNRI might be one of the easy-to-use tools for nutritional screening and for diagnosing malnutrition in older adults. Geriatr Gerontol Int 2020; 20: 811-816.

Abstract
AIM Detection of coagulase-negative Staphylococcus in blood culture may be a result of either bacteremia or contamination. This often leads to diagnostic uncertainly. Our objective was to develop a method for differentiating whether a coagulase-negative Staphylococcus sp. positive blood culture represents bacteremia or contamination based on positive bottle detection pattern and time to positivity (TTP). METHODS This study included 155 and 51 adults with positive blood cultures for Staphylococcus epidermidis and Staphylococcus hominis, respectively, over a three-year period from 2016 to 2018. Positive blood culture cases were categorized as either bacteremia or contamination based on the clinically available information, and the detection pattern and TTP in each category were investigated. RESULTS A total of 57, 92, and 6 S. epidermidis positive blood cultures were categorized as bacteremia, contamination, and undetermined, respectively, whereas 15 and 36 S. hominis positive blood cultures were categorized as bacteremia and contamination, respectively. For positive blood cultures categorized as bacteremia, all four bottles in two sets of blood cultures were positive in 47/47 S. epidermidis and 14/14 S. hominis, respectively, whereas either one bottle in each of two sets or three bottles in two sets were positive in 10/19 S. epidermidis and 1/4 S. hominis, respectively; most of those TTPs were <48 h. Among them, the TTP in catheter-related blood stream infection was <24 h. CONCLUSION Although clinical assessment is crucial to differentiate between bacteremia and contamination, a combination of positive bottle detection pattern and TTP is a valuable diagnostic auxiliary tool.

Abstract
Malnutrition leads to poor prognoses, including a predisposition to falls. Few studies have investigated the relationship between malnutrition and falls during hospitalization. This study aimed to determine malnutrition’s association with falls during hospitalization. A retrospective observational study was conducted. Patients aged ≥65 years that were admitted to and discharged from a university hospital between April 2018 and March 2019 were examined. Patients with independent basic activities of daily living were included. Diagnosis of malnutrition was based on the European Society for Clinical Nutrition and Metabolism (ESPEN) criteria at admission. Disease information such as the Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI) and reasons for hospitalization were reviewed. Kaplan–Meier curve and multivariate Cox regression analyses were performed. Data from 6081 patients (mean age: 74.4 ± 6.1 years; males: 58.1%) were analyzed. The mean CCI was 2.3 ± 2.8 points. Malnutrition was detected in 668 (11.0%) and falls occurred in 55 (0.9%) patients. Malnourished patients experienced a higher fall rate than those without malnutrition (2.4% vs. 0.7%, log-rank test p < 0.001). In multivariate analysis, malnutrition had the highest hazard ratio for falls among covariates (hazard ratio 2.78, 95% confidence interval 1.51–5.00, p = 0.001). In conclusion, malnutrition at the time of admission to hospital predicts in-hospital falls.

Abstract
OBJECT The SARC-F questionnaire is a sarcopenia screening tool. However, the validity of the SARC-F score ≥4 (SARC-F≥4) for the evaluation of sarcopenia in the hospital setting has not been investigated. This study investigated the validity of SARC-F≥4 as a screening tool for sarcopenia among hospitalized older adults. DESIGN Cross-sectional retrospective study. SETTING A university hospital. PARTICIPANTS This study included older adult patients (age ≥65 years) who were hospitalized at, and subsequently discharged from, the hospital between April and September 2019 and underwent a nutritional assessment by the nutrition support team during their hospitalization. MEASUREMENTS SARC-F was recorded at the time of admission, and the criteria specified by the Asia Working Group for Sarcopenia in 2019 (AWGS 2019) were applied to diagnose sarcopenia and possible sarcopenia. Appendicular muscle mass was estimated through validated equations, and three different models were developed for sarcopenia diagnosis. The sensitivity, specificity, and positive/negative likelihood ratios were calculated to analyze the accuracy of the SARC-F≥4 for sarcopenia and possible sarcopenia. Receiver-operating characteristic analyses were conducted to calculate the area under the curve (AUC). RESULTS In total, 1,689 patients (mean age: 77.2±7.3 years; male: 54.4%) were analyzed, and 636 patients (37.7%) had SARC-F≥4. Patients with SARC-F≥4 had a statistically significant higher prevalence of AWGS 2019-defined sarcopenia than patients with SARC-F <4 in the models (65.4-78.9% vs 40.9-45.2%, p<0.001). The sensitivity, specificity, and positive/negative likelihood ratios of SARC-F≥4 for sarcopenia and possible sarcopenia were 49.1-51.3%, 73.9-81.2%, and 1.88-2.72/0.60-0.69 and 48.0%, 84.5%, and 3.11/0.62, respectively. The AUC for sarcopenia and possible sarcopenia were 0.644-0.695 and 0.708, respectively. The AUC of SARC-F for possible sarcopenia was equivalent to or larger than that for sarcopenia (DeLong test p=0.438, 0.088, and <0.001 vs the three models). CONCLUSIONS SARC-F≥4 is suitable as a screening tool for sarcopenia in hospitalized older adults. SARC-F assessment could facilitate the detection and exclusion of sarcopenia at hospitalization and may lead to early adoption of a therapeutic and preventive approach.

Abstract
The study aimed to investigate the impact of sarcopenia and sarcopenia-related conditions on the development of swallowing disorders during hospitalization. Older adult inpatients (n = 8768) without swallowing disorders in the premorbid period were studied. Sarcopenia-related conditions were evaluated in terms of nutritional status, physical status, and ambulatory conditions as well as hand-grip strength and muscle mass assessed by calf circumference. Development of swallowing disorders was defined based on food texture at discharge from the hospital. The patients’ mean age was 76.1 ± 6.9 years. A total of 374 (4.3%) patients developed swallowing disorders during hospitalization. They were older, with poorer nutritional status, and had more decline of physical performance than those without swallowing disorders. Performance Status score (odds ratio (OR) = 1.28 (1.12–1.46) p < 0.001), ambulatory dependency (OR = 1.72 (1.09–2.71), p = 0.020), malnutrition score (OR = 0.92 (0.87–0.97), p = 0.002), insufficient nutritional intake (OR = 2.33 (1.60–3.40), p < 0.001), and length of stay (OR = 1.01 (1.00–1.01), p = 0.001) were independent contributing factors for swallowing disorder development in the multivariate analysis. The presence of possible sarcopenia was also a contributor to swallowing disorder development. In conclusion, swallowing disorders could develop in patients with possible sarcopenia and sarcopenia-related conditions during hospitalization. Clinicians should be aware of this risk and provide appropriate interventions to prevent sarcopenic dysphagia.

Abstract
We present the ultralow-temperature specific heat and thermal conductivity measurements on single crystals of triangular-lattice compound EtMe_{3}Sb[Pd(dmit)_{2}]_{2}, which has long been considered as a gapless quantum spin liquid candidate. In specific heat measurements, a finite linear term is observed, consistent with the previous work [S. Yamashita et al., Nat. Commun. 2, 275 (2011)NCAOBW2041-172310.1038/ncomms1274]. However, we do not observe a finite residual linear term in the thermal conductivity measurements, and the thermal conductivity does not change in a magnetic field of 6 T. These results are in sharp contrast to previous thermal conductivity measurements on EtMe_{3}Sb[Pd(dmit)_{2}]_{2} [M. Yamashita et al., Science 328, 1246 (2010)SCIEAS0036-807510.1126/science.1188200], in which a huge residual linear term was observed and attributed to highly mobile gapless excitations, likely the spinons of a quantum spin liquid. In this context, the true ground state of EtMe_{3}Sb[Pd(dmit)_{2}]_{2} has to be reconsidered.

Abstract
The concept of topology has been widely applied in condensed matter physics, leading to the identification of peculiar electronic states on three-dimensional (3D) surfaces or 2D lines separating topologically distinctive regions. In the systems explored so far, the topological boundaries are built-in walls; thus, their motional degrees of freedom, which potentially bring about new paradigms, have been experimentally inaccessible. Here, working with a quasi-1D organic material with a charge-transfer instability, we show that mobile neutral-ionic (dielectric-ferroelectric) domain boundaries with topological charges carry strongly 1D-confined and anomalously large electrical conduction with an energy gap much smaller than the one-particle excitation gap. This consequence is further supported by nuclear magnetic resonance detection of spin solitons, which are required for steady current of topological charges. The present observation of topological charge transport may open a new channel for broad charge transport-related phenomena such as thermoelectric effects.

Abstract
UNLABELLED In this case-control study, we concluded that women with distal radial fractures who were surgically treated showed lower grip strength and dynamic body balancing than those of controls. These results suggest that measurements of grip strength and dynamic body balance may be useful screening tools to assess future fracture risk. INTRODUCTION Patients with distal radial fractures (DRFs) are at risk of future fragility fractures. However, their physical characteristics and tendencies for falls remain unclear. We aimed to compare the physical characteristics of women with and without distal radial fractures. METHODS We included 128 women with a DRF as their first fragility fracture (fracture group) who underwent surgical treatment. Concurrently, 128 age- and sex-matched participants without a history of fragility fractures were selected as controls (control group). The participants underwent assessments of grip strength and the body balancing ability test. Measurements were taken twice in the fracture group, at 2 weeks and 6 months postoperatively, and once in the control group. The body balancing ability test included the Functional Reach Test, Timed Up and Go test (TUG), 2-Step test (2ST), and Timed Uni-pedal Stance test. The participants also completed questionnaires about their health. RESULTS There were no significant differences (p > 0.05) in patient characteristics between the groups. The fracture group showed lower grip strength across all age groups. In the DRF group, prolonged TUG time was observed at 2 weeks postoperatively in all age groups and at 6 months in participants aged 55-74 years; the 2ST score was significantly lower in participants aged between 65 and 74 years. CONCLUSIONS Women with DRF demonstrated lower grip strength and dynamic body balancing ability. Lower grip strength and dynamic body balancing ability were identified as significant risk factors in women with DRF, suggesting that these may be useful screening tools to assess fracture risk.

Abstract
Magnetic structures of organic Mott insulators X[Pd(dmit)_{2}]_{2} (X=Me_{4}P, Me_{4}Sb), of which electronic states are located near a quantum spin liquid (X=EtMe_{3}Sb), are demonstrated by ^{13}C nuclear magnetic resonance. Antiferromagnetic spectra and nuclear relaxations show two distinct magnetic moments within each Pd(dmit)_{2} molecule, which cannot be described by single band dimer-Mott model and requires intramolecular electronic correlation. This unconventional fragmentation of S=1/2 electron spin with strong quantum fluctuation is presumably caused by nearly degenerated intramolecular multiple orbitals, and shares a notion of quantum liquids where electronic excitations are fractionalized and S=1/2 spin is no longer an elementary particle.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Due to the water-rich cooking process required to soften texture modified diets (TMDs), TMDs may have poorer nutrition. The aim of this study was to investigate the associations between daily premorbid TMD consumption and nutritional status at the time of hospitalization, and its burden on hospitalization outcomes. DESIGN Retrospective observational study. SETTING An academic hospital. PARTICIPANTS The cohort comprised 3,594 older adult patients aged ≥65 years admitted to the hospital. MEASUREMENTS Patients were interviewed on admission using a premorbid daily consumption meal form to determine whether the patient ate a TMD. Nutritional status was examined using nutritional screening tools (Mini-Nutritional Assessment Short Form [MNA-SF], Malnutrition Universal Screening Tool [MUST], Geriatric Nutritional Risk Index [GNRI]) and the European Society of Clinical Nutrition and Metabolism (ESPEN)-defined criteria of malnutrition at admission. Length of hospital stay (LOS) and in-hospital mortality were considered outcomes of hospitalization. Multivariate analyses were performed to detect associations between premorbid TMD consumption and nutritional status and outcomes. RESULTS The mean age of the subjects was 75.9±7.0 years, including 58% males. Overall, 110 (3.1%) patients consuming a premorbid TMD were identified. They were older (p<0.001), had poor nutritional status (lower MNA-SF score [p<0.001] and GNRI value [p<0.001], higher MUST score [p<0.001], and more prevalent ESPEN-defined malnutrition [61.8% vs. 14.0%, p<0.001] than did patients without a TMD. The mortality rate and LOS of patients with TMD was higher (7.3% vs. 2.9%, p=0.017) and longer (19 days vs. 8 days, p<0.001) than those without TMD. Multivariate analyses showed that TMD consumption was independently associated with poor nutritional status and prolonged LOS after adjusting confounders. CONCLUSION Daily consumption of a TMD during the premorbid period affects nutritional status at the time of hospitalization and outcomes. Further studies are necessary to investigate whether nutritional intervention can improve outcomes for people on a TMD.

Abstract
Topological defects have been explored in different fields ranging from condensed matter physics and particle physics to cosmology. In condensed matter, strong coupling between charge, spin, and lattice degrees of freedom brings about emergent excitations with topological characteristics at low energies. One-dimensional (1D) systems with degenerate dimerization patterns are typical stages for the generation of topological defects, dubbed "solitons"; for instance, charged solitons are responsible for high electrical conductivity in doped trans-polyacetylene. Here, we provide evidence based on a nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) study for mobile spin solitons deconfined from a strongly charge-lattice-coupled spin-singlet ferroelectric order in a quasi-1D organic charge-transfer complex. The NMR spectral shift and relaxation rate associated with static and dynamic spin susceptibilities indicate that the ferroelectric order is violated by dilute solitonic spin excitations, which were further demonstrated to move diffusively by the frequency dependence of the relaxation rate. The traveling solitons revealed here may promise the emergence of anomalous electrical and thermal transport.

Abstract
The localization of charge carriers by electronic repulsion was suggested by Mott in the 1930s to explain the insulating state observed in supposedly metallic NiO. The Mott metal-insulator transition has been subject of intense investigations ever since1-3-not least for its relation to high-temperature superconductivity4. A detailed comparison to real materials, however, is lacking because the pristine Mott state is commonly obscured by antiferromagnetism and a complicated band structure. Here we study organic quantum spin liquids, prototype realizations of the single-band Hubbard model in the absence of magnetic order. Mapping the Hubbard bands by optical spectroscopy provides an absolute measure of the interaction strength and bandwidth-the crucial parameters that enter calculations. In this way, we advance beyond conventional temperature-pressure plots and quantitatively compose a generic phase diagram for all genuine Mott insulators based on the absolute strength of the electronic correlations. We also identify metallic quantum fluctuations as a precursor of the Mott insulator-metal transition, previously predicted but never observed. Our results suggest that all relevant phenomena in the phase diagram scale with the Coulomb repulsion U, which provides a direct link to unconventional superconductivity in cuprates and other strongly correlated materials.

Abstract
The electrodynamic response of organic spin liquids with highly frustrated triangular lattices has been measured in a wide energy range. While the overall optical spectra of these Mott insulators are governed by transitions between the Hubbard bands, distinct in-gap excitations can be identified at low temperatures and frequencies, which we attribute to the quantum-spin-liquid state. For the strongly correlated β^{'}-EtMe_{3}Sb[Pd(dmit)_{2}]_{2}, we discover enhanced conductivity below 175 cm^{-1}, comparable to the energy of the magnetic coupling J≈250 K. For ω→0, these low-frequency excitations vanish faster than the charge-carrier response subject to Mott-Hubbard correlations, resulting in a dome-shaped band peaked at 100 cm^{-1}. Possible relations to spinons, magnons, and disorder are discussed.

Abstract
The transition of a Mott insulator to metal, the Mott transition, can occur via carrier doping by elemental substitution, and by photoirradiation, as observed in transition-metal compounds and in organic materials. Here, we show that the application of a strong electric field can induce a Mott transition by a new pathway, namely through impulsive dielectric breakdown. Irradiation of a terahertz electric-field pulse on an ET-based compound, κ-(ET) 2Cu[N(CN) 2]Br (ET:bis(ethylenedithio)tetrathiafulvalene), collapses the original Mott gap of ∼30 meV with a ∼0.1 ps time constant after doublon-holon pair productions by quantum tunnelling processes, as indicated by the nonlinear increase of Drude-like low-energy spectral weights. Additionally, we demonstrate metallization using this method is faster than that by a femtosecond laser-pulse irradiation and that the transition dynamics are more electronic and coherent. Thus, strong terahertz-pulse irradiation is an effective approach to achieve a purely electronic Mott transition, enhancing the understanding of its quantum nature.
