Abstract
INTRODUCTION The purpose of this study was to investigate the influence of undercut depths on abutment teeth regarding the retentive force of clasps fabricated through selective laser melting (SLM), and to compare them with conventional cast clasps. METHODS Akers clasps made of cobalt chromium alloy were fabricated using the SLM method (SLM), and the retentive forces were compared with clasps made with the conventional cast method (Cast). Three undercut amounts (0.25 mm, 0.15 mm, and 0 mm) were applied on the abutment tooth. The specimens were subjected to 10,000 repetitive insertion/removal cycles. RESULTS SLM-0.15 showed slightly lower initial retentive force than the Cast specimens, it remained within an acceptable range. During insertion/removal test, the SLM-0.15 specimen showed a significant difference between the initial retentive force and the retentive force after 5,000 cycles, indicating that SLM-0.15 was the least likely to change in retentive force within the parameters established in this study. The inner clasp surface on the SLM groups had higher surface roughness before testing compared to the Cast specimen. CONCLUSIONS Akers clasps fabricated by SLM demonstrated optimal initial retentive forces with smaller undercuts than conventional Cast clasps, and the retentive forces changed less with repetitive insertion/removal.

Abstract
We reported a case of sigmoid colon cancer with horseshoe kidney. A 79-year-old man had lower abdominal pain and underwent colonoscopy. The results of colonoscopy revealed sigmoid cancer. Preoperative computed tomography revealed horseshoe kidney. He underwent radical laparoscopic surgery. The histopathological diagnosis was pStage Ⅱa(The 9th Edition). He has not recurred 22 months later after operation. Surgery for colorectal cancer with congenital anomalies of the urinary tract requires attention to intraoperative secondary injuries. Therefore, preoperative evaluation using 3D-CT is useful tool for safety. Operating the proper dissecting normal layer would make safe laparoscopic operation possible without unexpected injuries.

Abstract
An 88-year-old woman had been diagnosed with hilar cholangiocarcinoma for 3 years since she received metallic stents for malignant biliary obstruction, and observed without any aggressive medical treatment. She was admitted to our hospital for further investigation of her abdominal pain. Abdominal CT showed an enlarged gallbladder, fluid collection in the right paracolic gutter, and swollen appendix. Laboratory tests showed high-grade inflammation. She was diagnosed with acute perforated appendicitis with acute cholecystitis. Laparoscopic cholecystectomy and appendectomy were performed. Perforation was confirmed intraoperatively in the appendix wall and accumulation of pus was found in the right paracolic gutter. There were no macroscopic findings of metastasis and peritoneal dissemination. Microscopic examination of the resected appendix showed adenocarcinoma cells positive for CK7 and negative for CK20 and CDX2, and were predominantly infiltrated from the muscular layer to the serosa of the appendix wall, with a diagnosis of appendiceal metastasis from hilar cholangiocarcinoma. Metastatic appendiceal carcinoma is rare, and appendiceal metastasis from hilar cholangiocarcinoma is extremely rare. Herein, we report a rare case of metastatic appendiceal carcinoma from hilar bile duct cancer with acute perforated appendicitis and cholecystitis along with findings of previous literature.

Hatakeyama M, Shirahase M, Suzuki S, Morita K, Yamashita S. A study of patients whose mode of food intake changed during long-term bedside care. Jpn J Compr Rehabil Sci 2023; 14: 60-68. Objective The objective of this study was to determine the characteristics of patients who exhibited changes in their food intake level (as determined by the Food Intake Level Scale [FILS] score) while hospitalized for long-term bedside care. Methods The subjects were 264 patients hospitalized for long-term bedside care. The FILS was used to assess the subjects' mode of food intake on the admission and survey dates. The FILS score was used to divide the patients into three stages: no oral intake, combined oral intake and alternative nutrition, and exclusively oral intake; the patients whose FILS stage on the survey date was different from that on the admission date were examined to determine whether there were any characteristic tendencies with regard to their age, sex, length of hospital stay, level of long-term care needed, primary illness, and dysphagia rehabilitation. Results Overall, 6.8%, 9.8%, and 4.5% of the subjects showed improvement in the FILS stage, experienced deterioration of the FILS stage, and transitioned to exclusively oral intake, respectively. Further, 33.3% of the improved-FILS stage group were in their ≥90s. The results of the exact binomial test with the entire study cohort as the population proportion showed that there were significantly more females in the improved-FILS group. In addition, 83.3% of those who improved from no oral intake to exclusively oral intake had cerebrovascular disease. No difference in the length of hospital stay and level of long-term care needed was observed in either the improved-FILS or deteriorated-FILS group in comparison to their proportions in the entire study cohort. In the entire study cohort, a greater proportion of the subjects in the improved-FILS group underwent indirect or direct swallowing training than those in the deteriorated-FILS group; the improved-FILS group had no subjects who were assigned to watchful waiting. Conclusion Most patients who exhibited marked positive changes in their mode of food intake were females or patients with cerebrovascular disease. However, no characteristic attributes were observed among those whose FILS stage deteriorated.

Abstract
We reported a case of Type 4 rectal cancer performed laparoscopic surgery. A 73-year-old man had diarrhea and constipation and underwent colonoscopy. From the first colonoscopy, histological findings of biopsy showed non-neoplastic cells. The results of colonoscopy strongly suggested the possibility of Type 4 rectal cancer. Therefore, we performed colonoscopy twice and he was diagnosed Type 4 rectal cancer. Computed tomography revealed no distant metastasis. He underwent radical laparoscopic surgery. The histopathological diagnosis was pStage Ⅲc(The 9th edition). He then received adjuvant chemotherapy but was relapsed at bones and lymph nodes. He died 18 months later after surgery.

Abstract
Introduction Raising stroke awareness is important to shorten the interval from onset to consultation. We performed a school-based stroke education by on-demand e-learning during the coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic. Methods We performed on-demand e-learning and distributed the online- and paper-based manga about stroke for students and parental guardians in August 2021. We carried out this in a manner similar to the prior effective online stroke awareness initiatives in Japan. An online post-educational survey in October 2021 was conducted to evaluate the awareness effects by asking participants about their knowledge. We also investigated the modified Rankin Scale (mRS) at the discharge of stroke patients who were treated in our hospital during the before- and after-campaign periods, respectively. Results We distributed the paper-based manga and asked to work on this campaign to all 2,429 students (1,545 elementary school and 884 junior high school students) who lived in Itoigawa. We acquired 261 (10.7%) online responses from the students and 211 (8.7%) responses from their parental guardians. The number of students who chose all correct answers in the survey significantly increased after the campaign (205/261, 78.5%) compared to that before the campaign (135/261, 51.7%) and those of parental guardians showed similar trends (before campaign 93/211, 44.1%; after campaign 198/211, 93.8%). We investigated 282 stroke patients (90 patients before and 192 patients after-campaign period), and their mRS at discharge after-campaign seemed to be improved. Conclusion Only 10.7% of students and 8.7% of the parental guardians worked on the online survey. However, the number of those who chose correct answers about stroke increased after the campaign. After this campaign, the mRS of stroke patients at discharge improved although it was unclear if this is a direct result of this activity.

Abstract
Samples of the carbonaceous asteroid Ryugu were brought to Earth by the Hayabusa2 spacecraft. We analyzed 17 Ryugu samples measuring 1 to 8 millimeters. Carbon dioxide-bearing water inclusions are present within a pyrrhotite crystal, indicating that Ryugu's parent asteroid formed in the outer Solar System. The samples contain low abundances of materials that formed at high temperatures, such as chondrules and calcium- and aluminum-rich inclusions. The samples are rich in phyllosilicates and carbonates, which formed through aqueous alteration reactions at low temperature, high pH, and water/rock ratios of <1 (by mass). Less altered fragments contain olivine, pyroxene, amorphous silicates, calcite, and phosphide. Numerical simulations, based on the mineralogical and physical properties of the samples, indicate that Ryugu's parent body formed ~2 million years after the beginning of Solar System formation.

Abstract
We report a case receiving laparoscopic surgical resection of rectal cancer with protein-losing gastroenteropathy. A 58- year-old man was referred to our hospital because of melena, diarrhea, and anorexia. He showed septic shock, anemia, and hypoproteinemia. CT scan showed a rectal tumor with regional lymph node swelling and a cavernous lung lesion with a pulmonary embolus. Ninety-five days after admission to intensive care, he was introduced to our department because of the disappearance of a lung lesion indicating a lung abscess. Colonoscopy showed a cauliflower-like type 1 rectal cancer lesion. He experienced laparoscopic low anterior resection 121 days after admission. He was discharged without problems 66 days after the operation. After 8 months of surgery and no chemotherapy, he had no recurrence of rectal cancer. Colon cancer with protein-losing gastroenteropathy is rare and shows a typical cauliflower-like type 1 tumor appearance. Hypoproteinemia can be improved after resection of colon cancer.

Abstract
Objective Time to recanalization is directly linked to cerebral infarction prognosis. However, patients transferred from another hospital take longer to arrive than those transported directly. To minimize time to recanalization, the emergency room (ER) skip strategy for hospital transfers was executed and reviewed. Methods From April 2019, patients transferred from another hospital for mechanical thrombectomy were carried into the angio-suite using emergency service stretchers. Results for these patients (ER skip group) were compared with those for patients transported directly to our hospital (Direct group). Results Among 108 cases in 32 months, 99 patients (91.7%) had major cerebral artery occlusion and underwent endovascular treatment. No differences in age, baseline National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale score, effective recanalization rate, or proportion of posterior circulation cases were seen between groups. The ER skip group (26 patients) showed significantly longer median time from onset to arrival (240 vs. 120 min; p = 0.0001) and significantly shorter median time from arrival to groin puncture (11 vs. 69 min; p = 0.0000). No significant differences were evident in time from groin puncture to recanalization (39 vs. 45 min), time from onset to recanalization (298 vs. 244 min), or rate of modified Rankin Scale score 0-2 after 90 days (42.3% vs. 32.9%). Median time from alarm to recanalization (266 vs. 176 min; p = 0.0001) was significantly longer in the ER skip group. Door-to-puncture (DTP) time for the Direct group gradually fell as the number of cases increased, reaching 40 min by the end of study period. In contrast, DTP time for the ER skip group remained extremely short and did not change further. The proportion of patients who underwent both CT and MRI before endovascular treatment was significantly lower in the Direct group (30.1%) than in the ER skip group (57.7%). In the ER skip group, median length of stay in the primary hospital was 119 min, and the median duration of interhospital transfer was 16 min. Conclusion The ER skip strategy for patients transferred with large vessel occlusion achieved favorable outcomes comparable to that for direct transport cases. Direct transport to a thrombectomy-capable stroke center remains ideal, however, because the time to intervention is improving for direct transport cases each year.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Systemic inflammation resulting from comorbidities is postulated to play a central role in the pathophysiology of heart failure (HF) with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). Lymphopenia is a common manifestation of systemic inflammation and a prognostic factor in patients with HF. However, the association of lymphopenia with the comorbidity burden is unknown, and its prognostic value in patients with HFpEF admitted due to acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF) also remains elusive.
Purpose
We sought to clarify the relation of lymphopenia with the comorbidity burden, as well as its prognostic value and complementarity with the Get with the Guidelines-Heart Failure (GWTG-HF) risk score in ADHF patients with HFpEF.
Methods
Patients' data were extracted from the Prospective mUlticenteR obServational stUdy of patIenTs with Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction (PURSUIT-HFpEF), which is a prospective multicentre registry for patients with ADHF with a LVEF ≥50%. We analysed data of patients admitted between June 2016 and December 2020 who survived to discharge. The total lymphocyte count (per μL) and GWTG-HF risk score were obtained on admission, as previously reported. Comorbidity burden was defined as the number of comorbidities from the following: atrial fibrillation, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, coronary artery disease, chronic kidney disease, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, anaemia, and obesity. The study endpoint was all-cause death.
Results
Over a median follow-up of 417 days, 181 of the 1013 included patients died. The proportion of patients with a total lymphocyte count in the lowest tertile was increasing with the increase in comorbidity burden (Figure 1). In the multivariate Cox analysis, a total lymphocyte count in the intermediate (hazard ratio [HR] 1.55, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.00–2.41, p=0.0486) and lowest tertile (HR 2.23, 95% CI 1.47–3.38, p=0.0002) was independently associated with all-cause death. There was a significant difference in the all-cause death rate among the groups stratified by total lymphocyte count tertile (Figure 2). The total lymphocyte count had a higher C-statistic value (0.627) for the prediction of all-cause death than the GWTG-HF risk score, and the C-statistic value of the GWTG-HF risk score was improved when the total lymphocyte count was added (0.613 to 0.636, p=0.0260).
Conclusions
Lymphopenia was significantly associated with comorbidity burden. Furthermore, it was a useful marker of poor prognosis in hospitalised patients with acute HFpEF and was shown to be complementary to the contemporary HF prognostic score.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE ICA-selective MRA using a pencil beam presaturation pulse can accurately visualize anterior communicating artery flow. We evaluated the impact of anterior communicating artery flow on the perioperative hemodynamic status and new ischemic lesions after carotid revascularization. MATERIALS AND METHODS Eighty-three patients with carotid artery stenosis were included. We assessed anterior communicating artery flow using ICA-selective MRA. The preoperative hemodynamic status was measured using SPECT. We also measured the change in regional cerebral oxygen saturation after temporary ICA occlusion. New ischemic lesions were evaluated by DWI on the day after treatment. RESULTS Anterior communicating artery flow was detected in 61 patients, but it was not detected in 22 patients. Preoperative cerebrovascular reactivity was significantly higher in patients with (versus without) anterior communicating artery flow with a mean peak systolic velocity of ≥200 cm/s (39.6% [SD, 23.8%] versus 25.2% [SD, 16.4%]; P = .030). The decrease in mean regional cerebral oxygen saturation was significantly greater in patients without (versus with) anterior communicating artery flow (8.5% [SD, 5.6%] versus 3.7% [SD, 3.8%]; P = .002). New ischemic lesions after the procedure were observed in 23 patients. The multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that anterior communicating artery flow (OR, 0.07; 95% CI, 0.012-0.45; P = .005) was associated with new ischemic lesions. CONCLUSIONS The absence of anterior communicating artery flow influenced the perioperative hemodynamic status in patients with carotid stenosis and was associated with an increased incidence of new ischemic lesions after carotid revascularization.

Abstract
We reported a case of rectal gastrointestinal stromal tumor(GIST)performed transanal surgery. A 46-year-old woman was pointed out uterinal cancer and lower rectal GIST. After operation for uterine cancer, GIST was treated. Because of the patent's opinion for anal preservation, chemotherapy with imatinib for 3 months was performed and local resection was done by transanal minimally invasive surgery(TAMIS). The histopathological diagnosis was low-grade GIST and immunostaining showed the tumor was positive for c-kit, CD34, DOG-1 and α-SMA. Because capsule of the GIST was damaged intraoperatively, imatinib therapy was started and she has no recurrence after 2 years.

Abstract
We reported a case of superior mesenteric artery(SMA)syndrome after decreased body weight and unstable oral intakes due to anastomotic leakage of postoperative transverse colon cancer. A 63-year-old man underwent laparoscopic left hemicolectomy and D3 lymph node dissection with a diagnosis of transverse colon cancer. He had postoperative anastomotic leakage and was discharged after conservative treatment on postoperative day 35. However, he had visited our hospital by the symptom of bowel obstruction caused by anastomotic stenosis and had been admitted twice. After second colonoscopic balloon dilation on postoperative day 129, he was diagnosed as anastomotic perforation and emergency reoperation was performed. In the postoperative course, he repeated vomiting and his body weight decreased and superior mesenteric artery syndrome was diagnosed. He improved after conservative treatment by fasting, a nasogastric intubation and total parenteral nutrition and was discharged 22 days after the diagnosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Some reports have described intraosseous arteriovenous fistulas showing osteolytic changes, but an osseous arteriovenous fistula (AVF) at the jugular bulb showing extensive bone destruction is a very rare disease. CASE DESCRIPTION A 60-year-old man presented with pulsatile tinnitus and right facial nerve palsy. Radiological imaging showed a large homogenously enhanced osteolytic lesion at the right jugular foramen. A cerebral angiogram showed a high-flow vascular lesion of the jugular bulb associated with retrograde sinus reflux, resulting in venous congestion of the deep venous system. These findings led us to misdiagnose this lesion as a glomus jugular tumor. However, combined arterial and venous angiography after transarterial embolization revealed the precise angioarchitecture, and we finally diagnosed this lesion as a high-flow osseous AVF at the jugular bulb. We performed transvenous embolization using a triple catheter technique. The lesion was successfully obliterated, and the 6-months angiogram showed no recurrence. CONCLUSION A rare case of high flow osseous AVF at the jugular bulb associated with osteolytic changes in the surrounding bony structure is reported. Although many hypervascular lesions at the jugular bulb are glomus tumors, bone destructive osseous AVF at the jugular bulb should be considered.

Background
Although myocardial perfusion heterogeneity due to focally damaged cardiomyocytes is observed in single−photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) imaging, a current perfusion defect scoring system does not allow us to provide sufficient diagnostic information for heterogeneity.
Purpose
The aim of this study was to perform radiomics analysis of myocardial perfusion SPECT (MPS) images to investigate the potential to detect myocardial perfusion heterogeneity.
Methods
Patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (n = 3), heart failure (n = 9), and with a low likelihood of coronary artery disease (n =15) (Figure 1), who underwent a rest 99mTc-MIBI myocardial perfusion SPECT, were assessed using a LIFEx software. Four shape−based features, 6 histogram−based features, and 32 textural features were computed. The relevant features for the classification of the patients were selected using the Boruta algorithm, and hierarchical clustering of the selected features using the Spearman correlation coefficient was also performed for the feature reduction. The receiver operating characteristics (ROC) analysis was performed by the support vector machine to calculate the area under the ROC curve (AUC) for the selected features.
Results
Of 40 features, 17 were selected by the classification analysis, and these features were classified into 7 classes by the correlation analysis (Figure 2). The ROC AUCs for 7 features extracted from each class were 0.99, 0.97, 0.96, 0.92, 0.90, 0.86, and 0.83 for the contrast of NDGLDM, the entropy of histogram, ZLNU of GLZLM, the energy of GLCM, the energy of histogram, SZLGE of GLZLM, and the correlation of GLCM, respectively, as compared to 0.39 for a summed rest score.
Conclusions
Radiomics analysis successfully determined the myocardial perfusion heterogeneity in patients with cardiomyopathy and heart failure. It might be promising for the evaluation of myocardial damages that cannot be analyzed by the conventional scoring method.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to compare the displacement of tooth arrangement in dentures fabricated by additive manufacturing (AM) and heat curing. METHODS Three-dimensional (3D) scanning was performed for edentulous jaw models. After the teeth were arranged, 3D scanning for the wax denture was performed. Heat-cured dentures were fabricated with heat-cure polymer resin. Based on data obtained by subtracting the model data from wax denture data, AM dentures were fabricated from ultraviolet-cured acrylic resin. Accuracy was verified by superimposing heat-cured and AM dentures on the tooth region data from the wax dentures and measuring displacement of the tooth arrangement. RESULTS In the maxillary dentures, the amount of tooth displacement for the heat-cured dentures and for the AM dentures ranged from -0.08 to +0.06 mm and from -0.25 to +0.06 mm respectively. A significant difference was observed between two dentures. In the mandibular dentures, the amount of tooth displacement for the heat-cured dentures and for the AM dentures ranged from -0.09 to +0.07 mm and from -0.03 to +0.07 mm respectively. No significant difference was observed between two dentures. CONCLUSIONS The artificial teeth of the maxillary dentures fabricated by AM showed a greater displacement compared to those by heat curing.

Abstract
Herein, we report a case of laparoscopic surgery for sigmoid lymph node metastases after surgery for rectal cancer. A 58- year-old man underwent laparoscopic surgery for rectal cancer. He underwent D2 lymph node dissection, and he was undergoing dialysis for renal disease as a complication of diabetes. CT imaging performed 15 months after surgery revealed recurrence of tumors in the sigmoid lymph nodes. Subsequently, laparoscopic removal of the sigmoid lymph nodes was planned, as the patient had no tumor recurrence at any other location, and because his condition was not suitable for chemotherapy. The postoperative course was uneventful, and the patient was discharged a few days after surgery.

Abstract
Astrocytes are one of the first responders to central nervous system (CNS) injuries such as spinal cord injury (SCI). They are thought to repress injury-induced CNS inflammation as well as inhibit axonal regeneration. While reactive astrocytes migrate and accumulate around the lesion core, the mechanism of astrocyte migration towards the lesion site remains unclear. Here, we examined possible involvement of acidification of the lesion site and expression of proton-sensing receptors in astrocyte migration, both in mice models and in vitro. We found that the expression of several proton-sensing receptors was increased at the lesion site after SCI. Among these receptors, Gpr132 was expressed in primary cultured astrocytes and exhibited significant enhanced expression in acidic conditions in vitro. Furthermore, astrocyte motility was enhanced in acidic media and by Gpr132 activation. These results suggest that acidification of the lesion site facilitates astrocyte migration via the proton-sensing receptor Gpr132.

Abstract
We report a case of laparoscopic surgical resection of a small intestinal cancer. A woman in her 40s was referred to our department for prolonged abdominal problems(epigastralgia, nausea, diarrhea, and constipation). CT scan revealed a small intestinal tumor with dilatation of the oral side of the intestine. She was admitted to our hospital, and an ileus tube was introduced. One week after admission, she experienced laparoscopic partial resection of the small intestine. She was soon discharged without any problems and has had no recurrence of small intestinal cancer after 8 months of surgery without any adjuvant chemotherapy. Small intestinal cancer is frequently detected in an advanced stage, resulting in poor prognosis, but curative surgery can improve the prognosis. Optimal therapy for small intestinal cancer has not been established yet because it is rare. A multi-centered study of small intestinal cancer for the establishment of its diagnosis and therapy needs to be conducted.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Although catheter ablation targeting ganglionated plexi (GP) playing an important role in formation of triggers and substrates of atrial fibrillation (AF) has been reported as one of the effective ablation strategies in non-paroxysmal AF (non-PAF) patients, its effectiveness varies among the study groups. More recently, ablation targeting spatiotemporal electrogram dispersion (STED) areas, assumed to contain AF drivers in forms of rotational activation is proposed. However, the optimal ablation strategy for non-PAF is still controversial since the exact mechanisms of non-PAF are not well understood.
Purpose
To investigate the effectiveness of GP ablation for autonomic modification and STED ablation for modulation of AF drivers.
Methods
Consecutive 149 non-PAF patients who underwent STED ablation in our center were enrolled. We detected STED areas within the whole left and right atrium during AF using PentaRay®, and ablated them. If AF was terminated during STED ablation, we finished the procedure without burning the remaining STED areas. If not, electrical cardioversion was applied. The outcome was compared with that in consecutive 156 non-PAF patients undergoing GP ablation previously in our center.
Results
(1) The clinical characteristics were comparable between two groups (see Table). (2) A Kaplan-Meier curve showed that there was no significant difference between the freedom rates from non-PAF/non-paroxysmal atrial tachycardia (non-PAT) after single procedure in STED group and GP group (Figure, left). (3) However, the freedom rates from non-PAT in STED group was significantly lower than that GP group (Figure, right).
Conclusions
The recurrence type of atrial arrhythmia after ablation was remarkably different between ablation of STED and GP. STED ablation might eliminate fibrillatory conduction and control AF driver in patients with non-PAF.

Abstract
AIM The need to identify novel biomarkers for early diagnosis and treatment of diabetic nephropathy is widely recognized. However, only a few studies have investigated the association between biomarkers and the onset of albuminuria. In this study, we aimed to investigate a panel of biomarkers suitable for predicting microalbuminuria. METHODS Some 346 Japanese people with type 2 diabetes exhibiting normoalbuminuria were studied. The endpoint was defined as the onset of microalbuminuria. Thirty biomarkers were selected from among urinary biomarkers described in previous studies. A panel of biomarkers was selected using least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO). The prognostic performance of the developed panel was evaluated. RESULTS During a mean follow-up of 6.2 years, 45 people progressed to microalbuminuria. A composite panel of six biomarkers (monocyte chemoattractant protein-1, osteopontin, soluble human tumour necrosis factor receptor-1, tenascin C, vascular endothelial growth factor-A and kidney injury molecule-1) was developed using LASSO. Compared with the basal model comprising estimated GFR and urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio, addition of these six biomarkers significantly increased the overall C index from 0.773 to 0.824 (P = 0.019). Net reclassification improvement and integrated discrimination improvement were estimated to be 0.412 (P = 0.049) and 0.040 (P = 0.040), respectively. Decision curve analysis also showed that the model with the six novel biomarkers had a better prognostic value for predicting the onset of microalbuminuria. The optimism was moderate or negligible according to measures. CONCLUSIONS The panel consisting of six novel urinary biomarkers effectively predicted incident microalbuminuria in people with type 2 diabetes.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Pulmonary function is known to decrease with age and reduced pulmonary function has been reported to be associated with all-cause mortality and cardiovascular death. The association between pulmonary impairment and atherosclerosis was reported previously but has not been investigated sufficiently in the general population.
Purpose
We hypothesized that arterial stiffness could reflect increase of cardiac load and reduced pulmonary function. The present study aimed to investigate whether increased cardiac load and reduced pulmonary function could affect arterial stiffness in the general population.
Methods
Subjects undergoing their health check-up were enrolled. Plasma B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) levels and serum high-sensitivity cardiac troponin I (hs-cTnI) levels were measured to evaluate cardiac load and myocardial damage. Radial augmentation index (rAI) was measured to investigate arterial stiffness using HEM-9000AI device. Subjects with an ST-T segment abnormality on the electrocardiogram, renal insufficiency, cancer, active inflammatory disease, or a history of cardiovascular events and pulmonary disease were excluded. Pulmonary function was assessed using spirometry by calculating forced vital capacity (FVC) as a percentage of predicted value (FVC%-predicted), forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) as a percentage of predicted value (FEV1%-predicted), and the ratio of FEV1 to FVC (FEV1/FVC).
Results
A total of 1100 subjects aged 57 years were enrolled and their median values of BNP and hs-cTnI were 15.5 and 2.3 pg/ml. The levels of rAI were significantly associated with the levels of BNP after adjustment for possible confounders in multivariate regression analysis, but were not with the levels of hs-TnI. While the parameters of pulmonary function were inversely associated with the levels of rAI and hs-cTnI after adjustment for possible confounders in the multivariate regression analysis, but not with the levels of BNP. The other multivariate regression analyses where BNP, hs-cTnI, parameters of pulmonary function, and the other possible factors were simultaneously included as independent variables revealed that the BNP levels and the FVC%-predicted or FEV1%-predicted, besides age, gender, smoking status, body mass index, blood pressure, heart rate, creatinine, fasting plasma glucose, and triglyceride, were significantly associated with the levels of rAI.
Conclusions
The significant associations of rAI with BNP and pulmonary function were revealed in the general population. These findings support that arterial stiffness could reflect increased cardiac load and reduced pulmonary function, in apparently healthy individuals.

Abstract
Motor fluctuations can be seen even during treatment with continuous levodopa-carbidopa intestinal gel infusion (LCIG). We report on a middle-aged man with advanced Parkinson's disease (PD) on LCIG in which motor fluctuations have been improved with an anticholinergic. To the best of our knowledge, there have been no previous LCIG cases reported with motor fluctuations responding to non-dopaminergic agent, which might reveal some clues to its pathophysiology. Long-term oral levodopa treatment is associated with development of potentially disabling motor complications including motor fluctuations and dyskinesias in the majority of patients with PD. It has been suggested that motor complications are related to the nonphysiological restoration of brain dopamine with intermittent administration of standard oral levodopa. LCIG significantly reduces “off” time and increases “on” time without dyskinesia in comparison to standard oral levodopa through consistent plasma concentration of levodopa to restore brain dopamine in a more physiological manner. However, it has been reported that PD patients on LCIG often worsen during the afternoon hours, even with stable plasma concentration of levodopa. This raises the possibility that additional factors to dopamine deficiency could play a role in occurrence of motor fluctuations. Here we offer a hypothesis that altered cholinergic signaling could also be involved in the pathophysiology of motor fluctuations, based on our clinical evidence that anticholinergic drug has eliminated motor fluctuations during LCIG in a patient with PD. Further studies for non-dopaminergic along with dopaminergic signaling may be needed to better understand the pathophysiological basis of motor complications in PD. Motor fluctuations can occur during the afternoon hours in Parkinson's patients even on LCIG. Anticholinergic agent could be an option for treating the motor fluctuations during LCIG. Altered cholinergic signaling might be involved in occurrence of motor fluctuations.

Abstract
This population-based ecological study analyzes the prevalence of childhood leukemia in Ukraine before and after the Chornobyl nuclear power plant accident, based on the contamination status of the territory, time period, gender, and age. Three regions-Zhytomyr, Kyiv (except Kyiv city), and Chernihiv were included as areas contaminated by radioactive 137Cs from 1 to 15 Ci/km2 with annual effective doses exceeding 1.0 mSv, and Sumy region as the control (non-contaminated) area with 137Cs contamination less than 1 Ci/km2 and effective doses less than 0.5 mSv per year. The integrated database of the National Research Centre for Radiation Medicine used in the present study included 1085 childhood leukemia cases. Two aggregated periods were used for analysis: 1980-1986 (pre-accident) and 1987-2000 (post-accident). ICD-9 codes for leukemia (204-208.9) were used to perform analyses according to the extent of leukemic cells maturity (acute, chronic, and maturity unspecified leukemia), leukemic cell lineage (lymphoid, myeloid and lineage unspecified leukemia) and all leukemia cases in different age subgroups (1-4, 5-9, 10-14, and 15-19 years). Standard methods of descriptive epidemiology were used to calculate the prevalence of disease and frequency ratio in regression models. A statistically significant increase in frequency ratio for acute leukemia (1.44; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.22-1.71), myeloid leukemia (2.93; 95% CI, 1.71-5.40), cell lineage unspecified leukemia (II) (1.48; 95% CI, 1.18-1.87) and all forms of leukemia (1.59; 95% CI, 1.36-1.86) was found for the post-accident period in highly contaminated areas. The results indicate that the frequency of childhood leukemia (and of some of its types) increased in contaminated areas during the post-accident period, suggesting that radiation exposure after the Chornobyl accident might be the cause of the increase. However, further analytical studies, with individual or at least group dose estimates, are needed to confirm a link between childhood leukemia and the Chornobyl accident.

Abstract
Background It is not known whether perioperative chemotherapy, compared with adjuvant chemotherapy alone, improves disease‐free survival (DFS) in patients with upfront resectable colorectal liver metastases (CLM). The aim of this study was to estimate the impact of neoadjuvant 5‐fluorouracil, leucovorin and oxaliplatin (FOLFOX) on DFS in patients with upfront resectable CLM. Methods Consecutive patients who presented with up to five resectable CLM at two Japanese and two French centres in 2008–2015 were included in the study. Both French institutions favoured perioperative FOLFOX, whereas the two Japanese groups systematically preferred upfront surgery plus adjuvant chemotherapy. Inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW) and Cox regression multivariable models were used to adjust for confounding. The primary outcome was DFS. Results Some 300 patients were included: 151 received perioperative chemotherapy and 149 had upfront surgery plus adjuvant chemotherapy. The weighted 3‐year DFS rate was 33·5 per cent after perioperative chemotherapy compared with 27·1 per cent after upfront surgery plus adjuvant chemotherapy (hazard ratio (HR) 0·85, 95 per cent c.i. 0·62 to 1·16; P = 0·318). For the subgroup of 165 patients who received adjuvant FOLFOX successfully (for at least 3 months), the adjusted effect of neoadjuvant chemotherapy was not significant (HR 1·19, 0·74 to 1·90; P = 0·476). No significant effect of neoadjuvant chemotherapy was observed in multivariable regression analysis. Conclusion Compared with adjuvant chemotherapy, perioperative FOLFOX does not improve DFS in patients with resectable CLM, provided adjuvant chemotherapy is given successfully.

Abstract
Various types of fluorescent lights are found in the dispensing rooms of medical facilities, such as hospitals and pharmacies, in Japan. However, to reduce electric power consumption, it was necessary to evaluate the substitution of fluorescent lighting with light emitting diode (LED) lighting, which has become widespread in recent years. We subjectively evaluated several types of medicines stored under various light sources and found that different color changes were induced in tablets. In this study, we focused on Perlodel ® tablets, containing 2.5 mg bromocriptine mesylate, as an example for the objective evaluation of the differences in the color change of tablets when stored under LED lighting and fluorescent lighting. High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) analysis of part of the tablet surface area revealed a change from white to light brown or dark brown after 28 days of irradiation, with a residual concentration of bromocriptine mesylate of 85.5 % under fluorescent lighting, 85.6 % under daylight-color LED lighting, 90.3 % under bulb-color LED lighting, and 99.2 % in the dark. In addition, the ultraviolet (UV)-visible spectral study of the absorbance of a photo-product at 400-550 nm indicated that the color change of the Perlodel® 2.5 mg tablet was caused by photochemical degradation of bromocriptine mesylate. Thus, this analysis of the photochemical changes in drugs stored under different light sources demonstrated the potency of LED lights. Through the objective evaluation of the color change, the cause of the color change was determined; this will allow us to develop a strategy that minimizes possible disadvantages to patients, such as a decrease in treatment efficacy owing to decomposition of the main component or adverse caused by decomposed matter.

Abstract
Surgery for esophageal carcinoma is known to be associated with high morbidity. Recent studies have reported a correlation of nutritional and inflammatory parameters with postoperative course. This study aims to clarify the risk factors for operative morbidity after resection of esophageal carcinoma. Consecutive patients who underwent esophagectomy for esophageal squamous cell carcinoma at our institute were included (n = 102; 89 males and 13 females; mean age: 67.3 years). Clinicopathological characteristics, presence or absence of sarcopenia, and modified Glasgow prognostic score were assessed, and their correlation with postoperative complications was investigated using univariate and multivariate analyses. Sarcopenia was defined using a combination of muscle mass area and body mass index. Of the included 102 patients, 45 (44.1%) exhibited sarcopenia (sarcopenia group), while 57 (55.9%) did not (non-sarcopenia group). No significant difference was observed between the groups regarding surgical procedures and tumor stage; furthermore, there was no mortality. Twenty-six patients developed respiratory complications (including 20 cases of pneumonia). On univariate analysis, sarcopenia, modified Glasgow prognostic score, and American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status were found to be significantly associated with the development of postoperative respiratory complications. On multivariate analysis, sarcopenia was found to be an independent risk factor for postoperative respiratory complications after esophagectomy. We believe that identifying patients at risk and providing preoperative nutritional support as well as physical therapy aimed at strengthening of body muscles may help reduce the incidence of postoperative respiratory complications in such patients.

Abstract
Talaromyces species are typical fungi capable of producing the heat-resistant ascospores responsible for the spoilage of processed food products. Hydrophobins, which are unique to fungi, are small secreted proteins that form amphipathic layers on the outer surface of fungal cell walls. In this study, species-specific primer sets for detecting and identifying Talaromyces macrosporus and Talaromyces trachyspermus were designed based on hydrophobin gene sequences. A conventional polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assay using these primer sets produced species-specific amplicons for T. macrosporus and T. trachyspermus. The detection limit for each primer set was 100 pg template DNA. This assay also detected fungal DNA extracted from blueberries inoculated with T. macrosporus. Other heat-resistant fungi, including Byssochlamys, Neosartorya and Talaromyces species, which cause food spoilage, were not detected in PCR amplifications with these primer sets. Furthermore, a conventional PCR assay using a crude DNA extract as the template also yielded amplicons specific to T. macrosporus and T. trachyspermus. The simple and rapid PCR assay described herein is highly species-specific and can reliably detect T. macrosporus and T. trachyspermus, suggesting it may be relevant for the food and beverage industry. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: The heat-resistant ascospores of Talaromyces macrosporus and Talaromyces trachyspermus are responsible for food spoilage after pasteurization. Traditional methods for detecting fungal contamination based on morphological characteristics are time-consuming and exhibit low sensitivity and specificity. In this study, a conventional polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assay based on hydrophobin gene sequences was developed for the specific detection of T. macrosporus and T. trachyspermus. This detection method was simple, rapid and highly specific. These results suggest that the conventional PCR assay developed in this study may be useful for detecting T. macrosporus and T. trachyspermus in raw materials and processed food products.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Repeated topical application of indomethacin is common in Japanese racehorses, despite the lack of pharmacokinetic data. OBJECTIVES To determine the concentrations of indomethacin and its metabolite, desmethylindomethacin, in plasma and urine of Thoroughbreds topically treated repeatedly with indomethacin. STUDY DESIGN In vivo experimental. METHODS Seven female Thoroughbreds were topically treated with 50 g of 1% indomethacin cream per horse to the back and hips (500 mg of indomethacin/head/2400 cm2 , 0.21 g/cm2 ) for 3 consecutive days. Samples were pretreated by protein precipitation for plasma and liquid-liquid extraction with ethyl acetate after hydrolysis with hydrochloric acid for urine. The concentrations of indomethacin and desmethylindomethacin in plasma and urine were measured by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry. RESULTS Indomethacin was quantifiable in plasma up to 48-72 h and in urine up to 96 h after the final application. Desmethylindomethacin was quantifiable in plasma up to 48 h and in urine up to 72-96 h after the final application. MAIN LIMITATIONS The relationship between the local and systemic indomethacin concentrations after the topical application was not clarified. CONCLUSIONS Pharmacokinetic data were acquired for repeated topical administration of 1% indomethacin cream to Thoroughbreds. Hydrolysing urine samples with hydrochloric acid was effective for the analysis of indomethacin and its metabolite, and indomethacin may be an excellent marker analyte for doping tests. The estimated withdrawal time based on the limit of detection was 342 h.
