Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the accuracy of artificial intelligence-assisted growth prediction using a convolutional neural network (CNN) algorithm and longitudinal lateral cephalograms (Lat-cephs). MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 198 Japanese preadolescent children, who had skeletal Class I malocclusion and whose Lat-cephs were available at age 8 years (T0) and 10 years (T1), were allocated into the training, validation, and test phases (n = 161, n = 17, n = 20). Orthodontists and the CNN model identified 28 hard-tissue landmarks (HTL) and 19 soft-tissue landmarks (STL). The mean prediction error values were defined as 'excellent,' 'very good,' 'good,' 'acceptable,' and 'unsatisfactory' (criteria: 0.5 mm, 1.0 mm, 1.5 mm, and 2.0 mm, respectively). The degree of accurate prediction percentage (APP) was defined as 'very high,' 'high,' 'medium,' and 'low' (criteria: 90%, 70%, and 50%, respectively) according to the percentage of subjects that showed the error range within 1.5 mm. RESULTS All HTLs showed acceptable-to-excellent mean PE values, while the STLs Pog', Gn', and Me' showed unsatisfactory values, and the rest showed good-to-acceptable values. Regarding the degree of APP, HTLs Ba, ramus posterior, Pm, Pog, B-point, Me, and mandibular first molar root apex exhibited low APPs. The STLs labrale superius, lower embrasure, lower lip, point of lower profile, B', Pog,' Gn' and Me' also exhibited low APPs. The remainder of HTLs and STLs showed medium-to-very high APPs. CONCLUSION Despite the possibility of using the CNN model to predict growth, further studies are needed to improve the prediction accuracy in HTLs and STLs of the chin area.

Multidisciplinary management of locally recurrent rectal cancer with carbon ion radiotherapy followed by prophylactic removal of the irradiated bowel: a case report. Surg Case Rep 2024; 10:13.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Locally recurrent rectal cancer (LRRC) involving the upper sacrum is typically incurable, and palliative treatment is the only option for most patients, resulting in a poor prognosis and reduced quality of life. Carbon ion radiotherapy (CIRT) has emerged as a promising modality for treating LRRC. This report presents a case of LRRC with sacral involvement that was managed via multidisciplinary therapy incorporating CIRT. CASE PRESENTATION A 55-year-old male was diagnosed with an anastomotic recurrence of rectal cancer 15 months after undergoing anterior resection. Computed tomography (CT) suggested that the lesion was at an anastomosis site and broadly adherent to the upper sacrum, and colonoscopy confirmed the diagnosis of LRRC. Histopathological examination of the biopsy specimens revealed adenocarcinoma cells and that lesion was genetically RAS-wild. Induction chemotherapy with mFOLFOX6 and panitumumab was used as the first treatment. The recurrent lesion shrank and no signs of distant metastasis were observed after 11 cycles, although the range of the lesions attached to the sacrum remained unchanged. Therefore, we provided CIRT for this inoperable lesion and prophylactically removed the radiation-exposed bowel including the recurrent lesion, because radiation-induced ulcers can cause bleeding and perforation. Despite the presence of considerable fibrosis in the irradiated region, the operation was successful and the postoperative course had no untoward incidents. He is still recurrence-free 24 months following surgery, despite the lack of adjuvant chemotherapy. This is the first report of CIRT followed by CIRT-irradiated bowel removal for an unresectable anastomosis recurrent lesion. CONCLUSIONS The clinical course of this case suggests that CIRT could be a potentially effective therapeutic option for LRRC involving the bowel, as long as the prophylactic removal of the irradiated bowel is performed at the optimal time. Further research involving larger sample sizes is warranted to validate the findings and conclusions of this case report.

Abstract
We present the first comprehensive tests of the universality of the light leptons in the angular distributions of semileptonic B^{0}-meson decays to charged spin-1 charmed mesons. We measure five angular-asymmetry observables as functions of the decay recoil that are sensitive to lepton-universality-violating contributions. We use events where one neutral B is fully reconstructed in ϒ(4S)→BB[over ¯] decays in data corresponding to 189 fb^{-1} integrated luminosity from electron-positron collisions collected with the Belle II detector. We find no significant deviation from the standard model expectations.

Abstract
We measure the lifetime of the D_{s}^{+} meson using a data sample of 207 fb^{-1} collected by the Belle II experiment running at the SuperKEKB asymmetric-energy e^{+}e^{-} collider. The lifetime is determined by fitting the decay-time distribution of a sample of 116×10^{3} D_{s}^{+}→ϕπ^{+} decays. Our result is τ_{D_{s}^{+}}=(499.5±1.7±0.9) fs, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second is systematic. This result is significantly more precise than previous measurements.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) Our institute conducted a clinical trial of curative partial breast irradiation using carbon ion radiotherapy (CIRT) to patients with stage 0 and I breast cancer since 2013. The purpose of this report is to evaluate treatment outcomes up to now. MATERIALS/METHODS To date, we have conducted three clinical trials and one advanced medical treatment (NIRS 9404 Comprehensive Research). The first study (UMIN000010848: commonly known as Breast I trial) was 4-split irradiation for stage I low-risk patients aged 60 years or older, and the next clinical study (UMIN000029478: commonly known as Breast II trial) was for Tis-1N0M0 cases of 2 cm or less. On the other hand, 4-split irradiation using standard adjuvant drug therapy according to risk combined with whole breast irradiation by X-ray, the latest clinical trial (UMIN000046859: commonly known as Breast III trial) is a single irradiation for Tis-1N0M0 patients aged 50 years or older. be. In each phase I, the dose increase test was performed, and in phase II, treatment was performed with the recommended dose determined in phase I. Advanced medical care was provided in parallel with breast I for stage I breast cancer that was difficult or rejected to participate in breast I trial. RESULTS By January 2023, 60 cases were enrolled. A total of 19 were enrolled In Breast I, 7 in Phase I, 12 in Phase II of the recommended dose of 60.0 Gy (RBE). A total of 14 were enrolled in the 9404 Comprehensive Research. A total of 17 were enrolled In Breast II, 5 cases in Phase I, 12 cases in Phase II of recommended dose 60.0 Gy (RBE). A total of 10 were enrolled in Breast III, 6 cases in Phase I, and 4 in Phase II of recommended dose 50.0 Gy (RBE). As acute adverse events, grade 2 of acute radiation dermatitis were observed in 1 case, grade 1 of acute radiation dermatitis was observed in 31 cases, and grade 1 of mastitis was observed in 6 cases. As a late adverse event, grade 3 of pneumonia of unknown causality were observed in one case, but there were no other problematic adverse events, and breast cosmetic outcome was excellent in all cases. Tumor disappearance after CIRT took 3 to 24 months. Local recurrence and axillary lymph node metastasis were observed in one high-risk case of advanced medical treatment who refused any other therapy. Two cases had ipsilateral intramammary metachronous breast cancer with different subtypes. To date, no other recurrences or metastases have been observed. CONCLUSION CIRT for early-stage breast cancer is expected to be effective with mild adverse events, and it is considered meaningful to continue research.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) Radical treatment options for bulky unresectable locally advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) are limited. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of carbon-ion radiotherapy (C-ion RT) for bulky (≥4cm) locally advanced HCC. MATERIALS/METHODS We performed a retrospective cohort study of patients with bulky (≥4cm) locally advanced HCC treated by C-ion RT between April 2000 and March 2020 in our institution. The eligibility criteria for this study were: (1) the treatment protocols of 45.0-48.0 Gy/2 fractions or 52.8-60.0 Gy/4 fractions, which proven the safety and efficacy in the past clinical trials; (2) Tumors within 3 intrahepatic lesions and with a maximum tumor diameter of 4 cm or greater; (3) N0M0 status; (4) an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status of 0 to 2; (5) controllable ascites; (6) Child-Pugh grade was A or B. Overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS), and local control rate (LC) were calculated by the Kaplan-Meier method, and Cox regression analysis was used for multivariate analysis. Adverse events were evaluated by CTCAE ver. 5.0. JMP® 12 (SAS Institute Inc., Cary, NC, USA) was used for all analyses. We defined p < 0.05 as statistically significant. RESULTS A total of 187 patients met the criteria and were evaluated. The median patient age was 73 years (range, 37-90), and 139 of 187 patients were male. Child-Pugh grade was A in 163 patients and B in 24. Modified albumin-bilirubin (mALBI) grade was 1 in 96 patients, 2a in 50, and 2b in 41. The number of HCV-related HCC cases was in 80, HBV in 32 and non-B and non-C in 75. In 51 patients, identification of vascular invasion to the first-order branch of the portal vein and/or major hepatic vein was confirmed. The median maximum tumor diameter was 5.1 cm (4.0-13.5 cm). In 76 patients, C-ion RT were treated for recurrence. With a median follow-up period of 25.9 months (range, 1.1-215.1), 2-year overall survival, progression-free survival and local control rates were 68.3% (95% confidence interval [CI], 64.7-72.0%), 39.0% (95% CI, 35.2 - 42.8%) and 86.7% (95% CI, 84.7 - 89.7%), respectively. Late adverse events were observed in 3 patients (1.6%) with Grade 3 liver dysfunction and in 3 patients (1.6%) with Grade 3 skin disorders, but there were no cases of Grade 4 or higher. Multivariate analysis of prognostic factors for overall survival revealed that mALBI grade in 2b(HR:3.13, 1.97-4.78, p<0.0001), tumor status in recurrent treatment (HR:1.50, 1.02-2.21, p = 0.039), the number of tumors in 2 or more (HR:2.16, 1.01-2.17, p = 0.045), and maximum tumor diameter in larger than 6 cm (HR:2.34, 1.50-3.61, p = 0.0001) were the predominant prognostic factors, while age, presence of vascular invasion, AFP and DCP were not. CONCLUSION The safety and efficacy of C-ion RT for bulky (≥4cm) locally advanced HCC was demonstrated. These results suggested that C-ion RT may be a new treatment option for locally advanced bulky HCC with no curative treatment options.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) Surgical resection is the first-line treatment for hepatocellular carcinoma in the caudate lobe (caudate HCC), but it is often difficult due to the tumor's location. In addition, radiofrequency ablation and transcatheter arterial chemoembolization are also difficult for the same reason. This study aimed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of carbon-ion radiation therapy (C-ion RT) for caudate HCC. MATERIALS/METHODS We performed a retrospective cohort study of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma treated by C-ion RT between April 2000 and March 2020 in our institution. The eligibility criteria for this study were: (1) located mainly in the caudate lobe (2) the treatment protocols of 45.0-48.0 Gy/2 fractions or 52.8-60.0 Gy/4 fractions, which proved the safety and efficacy in the past clinical trials; (3) N0M0 status; (4) an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status (PS) of 0 to 2; (5) controllable ascites. The prescribed dose (Gy) used in this study is relative biological effectiveness (RBE) weighted dose. Overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS), and local control rate (LC) were calculated by the Kaplan-Meier method. Adverse events were evaluated by NCI-CTCAE ver. 5.0. SPSS software version 27.0 (IBM Inc.) was used for all analyses. We defined p-value < 0.05 as statistically significant. RESULTS A total of 25 patients met the criteria and were evaluated. The median patient age was 73 years (range 58-89), and 21 of 25 patients were male. The number of patients with PS 0 was 22, PS 1 was 1, and PS 2 was 2. The number of HBV-related HCC cases was in 8, HCV-related HCC cases was in 11, and non-B and non-C cases was in 6. The median maximum tumor diameter was 3.0 cm (1.1-4.8 cm). In 6 patients, identification of vascular invasion to the main trunk of the portal vein and/or major hepatic vein was confirmed. The Child-Pugh (CP) grade was A in 21 patients and B in 4. The modified albumin-bilirubin (mALBI) grade 1 is in 17 patients, 2a in 4, 2b in 4. Prescribed doses were 45 Gy / 2 fr in 3 cases, 48 Gy / 2 fr in 12 cases, 52.8 Gy / 4 fr in 7 cases, and 60 Gy / 4 fr in 3 cases. With a median follow-up period of 43.6 months (range 0.3-85.0), 3-year OS, PFS, and LC were 74% (95% confidence interval [CI], 54.8-93.8%), 32% (95% CI, 11.8-51.4%), and 93% (95% CI, 79.4-106%), respectively. All patients had no Grade 2 or higher adverse events during the observation period. CONCLUSION The safety and efficacy of C-ion RT for caudate HCC were demonstrated. These results suggested that C-ion RT may be a promising treatment option for patients with caudate HCC.

Abstract
We report the first search for a nonstandard-model resonance decaying into τ pairs in e^{+}e^{-}→μ^{+}μ^{-}τ^{+}τ^{-} events in the 3.6-10 GeV/c^{2} mass range. We use a 62.8 fb^{-1} sample of e^{+}e^{-} collisions collected at a center-of-mass energy of 10.58 GeV by the Belle II experiment at the SuperKEKB collider. The analysis probes three different models predicting a spin-1 particle coupling only to the heavier lepton families, a Higgs-like spin-0 particle that couples preferentially to charged leptons (leptophilic scalar), and an axionlike particle, respectively. We observe no evidence for a signal and set exclusion limits at 90% confidence level on the product of cross section and branching fraction into τ pairs, ranging from 0.7 to 24 fb, and on the couplings of these processes. We obtain world-leading constraints on the couplings for the leptophilic scalar model for masses above 6.5 GeV/c^{2} and for the axionlike particle model over the entire mass range.

Abstract
We report a measurement of the CP-violating parameters C and S in B^{0}→K_{S}^{0}π^{0} decays at Belle II using a sample of 387×10^{6} BB[over ¯] events recorded in e^{+}e^{-} collisions at a center-of-mass energy corresponding to the ϒ(4S) resonance. These parameters are determined by fitting the proper decay-time distribution of a sample of 415 signal events. We obtain C=-0.04_{-0.15}^{+0.14}±0.05 and S=0.75_{-0.23}^{+0.20}±0.04, where the first uncertainties are statistical and the second are systematic.

Abstract
We present the first measurement of the ratio of branching fractions of inclusive semileptonic B-meson decays, R(X_{e/μ})=B(B→Xeν)/B(B→Xμν), a precision test of electron-muon universality, using data corresponding to 189 fb^{-1} from electron-positron collisions collected with the Belle II detector. In events where the partner B meson is fully reconstructed, we use fits to the lepton momentum spectra above 1.3 GeV/c to obtain R(X_{e/μ})=1.007±0.009(stat)±0.019(syst), which is the most precise lepton-universality test of its kind and agrees with the standard-model expectation.

Abstract
The L_{μ}-L_{τ} extension of the standard model predicts the existence of a lepton-flavor-universality-violating Z^{'} boson that couples only to the heavier lepton families. We search for such a Z^{'} through its invisible decay in the process e^{+}e^{-}→μ^{+}μ^{-}Z^{'}. We use a sample of electron-positron collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 10.58 GeV collected by the Belle II experiment in 2019-2020, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 79.7 fb^{-1}. We find no excess over the expected standard-model background. We set 90%-confidence-level upper limits on the cross section for this process as well as on the coupling of the model, which ranges from 3×10^{-3} at low Z^{'} masses to 1 at Z^{'} masses of 8 GeV/c^{2}.

Abstract
We search for lepton-flavor-violating τ^{-}→e^{-}α and τ^{-}→μ^{-}α decays, where α is an invisible spin-0 boson. The search uses electron-positron collisions at 10.58 GeV center-of-mass energy with an integrated luminosity of 62.8 fb^{-1}, produced by the SuperKEKB collider and collected with the Belle II detector. We search for an excess in the lepton-energy spectrum of the known τ^{-}→e^{-}ν[over ¯]_{e}ν_{τ} and τ^{-}→μ^{-}ν[over ¯]_{μ}ν_{τ} decays. We report 95% confidence-level upper limits on the branching-fraction ratio B(τ^{-}→e^{-}α)/B(τ^{-}→e^{-}ν[over ¯]_{e}ν_{τ}) in the range (1.1-9.7)×10^{-3} and on B(τ^{-}→μ^{-}α)/B(τ^{-}→μ^{-}ν[over ¯]_{μ}ν_{τ}) in the range (0.7-12.2)×10^{-3} for α masses between 0 and 1.6 GeV/c^{2}. These results provide the most stringent bounds on invisible boson production from τ decays.

Abstract
To test bound-state quantum electrodynamics (BSQED) in the strong-field regime, we have performed high precision x-ray spectroscopy of the 5g-4f and 5f- 4d transitions (BSQED contribution of 2.4 and 5.2 eV, respectively) of muonic neon atoms in the low-pressure gas phase without bound electrons. Muonic atoms have been recently proposed as an alternative to few-electron high-Z ions for BSQED tests by focusing on circular Rydberg states where nuclear contributions are negligibly small. We determined the 5g_{9/2}- 4f_{7/2} transition energy to be 6297.08±0.04(stat)±0.13(syst) eV using superconducting transition-edge sensor microcalorimeters (5.2-5.5 eV FWHM resolution), which agrees well with the most advanced BSQED theoretical prediction of 6297.26 eV.

Abstract
We study the processes e^{+}e^{-}→ωχ_{bJ}(1P) (J=0, 1, or 2) using samples at center-of-mass energies sqrt[s]=10.701, 10.745, and 10.805 GeV, corresponding to 1.6, 9.8, and 4.7 fb^{-1} of integrated luminosity, respectively. These data were collected with the Belle II detector during special operations of the SuperKEKB collider above the ϒ(4S) resonance. We report the first observation of ωχ_{bJ}(1P) signals at sqrt[s]=10.745 GeV. By combining Belle II data with Belle results at sqrt[s]=10.867 GeV, we find energy dependencies of the Born cross sections for e^{+}e^{-}→ωχ_{b1,b2}(1P) to be consistent with the shape of the ϒ(10753) state. These data indicate that the internal structures of the ϒ(10753) and ϒ(10860) states may differ. Including data at sqrt[s]=10.653 GeV, we also search for the bottomonium equivalent of the X(3872) state decaying into ωϒ(1S). No significant signal is observed for masses between 10.45 and 10.65 GeV/c^{2}.

Abstract
A 3-month-old Shetland sheepdog presented with a loud ejection murmur and exercise intolerance. Echocardiography revealed an accessory mitral valve leaflet, characterised by a valve-like structure separate from the mitral valve seen in the subaortic region of the ventricular septum. The left ventricular outflow tract was partially obstructed with a pressure gradient of 12 mmHg. Accessory mitral valve leaflet resection and mitral valvuloplasty were performed during open-heart surgery. Histology performed on the membrane-like structures were indicative of fibrous connective tissues. Postoperative echocardiography confirmed removal of the valve-like structure with resolution of the left ventricular outflow tract obstruction. The pressure gradient was decreased to 4.6 mmHg. The dog was in good condition and no further treatment was required 5 months after surgery. Both cardiac troponin I and NT-proBNP were markedly decreased. In this dog, surgical resection combined with mitral valve plasty resolved the left ventricular outflow tract obstruction and the clinical signs.

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
An absolute measurement of the Λ_{c}^{+} lifetime is reported using Λ_{c}^{+}→pK^{-}π^{+} decays in events reconstructed from data collected by the Belle II experiment at the SuperKEKB asymmetric-energy electron-positron collider. The total integrated luminosity of the data sample, which was collected at center-of-mass energies at or near the ϒ(4S) resonance, is 207.2 fb^{-1}. The result, τ(Λ_{c}^{+})=203.20±0.89±0.77 fs, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second systematic, is the most precise measurement to date and is consistent with previous determinations.

Abstract
The dark photon A^{'} and the dark Higgs boson h^{'} are hypothetical particles predicted in many dark sector models. We search for the simultaneous production of A^{'} and h^{'} in the dark Higgsstrahlung process e^{+}e^{-}→A^{'}h^{'} with A^{'}→μ^{+}μ^{-} and h^{'} invisible in electron-positron collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 10.58 GeV in data collected by the Belle II experiment in 2019. With an integrated luminosity of 8.34 fb^{-1}, we observe no evidence for signal. We obtain exclusion limits at 90% Bayesian credibility in the range of 1.7-5.0 fb on the cross section and in the range of 1.7×10^{-8}-200×10^{-8} on the effective coupling ϵ^{2}×α_{D} for the A^{'} mass in the range of 4.0 GeV/c^{2}<M_{A^{'}}<9.7 GeV/c^{2} and for the h^{'} mass M_{h^{'}}<M_{A^{'}}, where ϵ is the mixing strength between the standard model and the dark photon and α_{D} is the coupling of the dark photon to the dark Higgs boson. Our limits are the first in this mass range.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
In heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF), drugs including angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEi)/ angiotensin receptor blockers (ARB), beta-blockers, and mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists (MRA) have been shown to have robust survival benefits. However, these guideline-recommended therapies remain underutilized in clinical practice. Frailty is common in HFrEF and may lead to underprescription of life-saving therapy.
Purpose
We aimed to investigate the association between physical frailty and the use of evidence-based pharmacological therapy for HFrEF, and the impact of this on prognosis
Methods
The FLAGSHIP study included patients hospitalized for acute HF and data on physical frailty were collected prospectively. Of the total 3,272 patients registered in the FLAGSHIP study, 1,041 HFrEF patients (70 years; 73% male) with left ventricular ejection fraction ≤40% were analyzed and were divided into 4 groups by severity of frailty: category I (n=371) [least frail], II (n=275), III (n=224), and IV (n=171) [most frail].
Results
An ACEi/ARB was prescribed in 76% of category I and 53% of category IV patients; for a beta-blocker these proportions were 94% and 76%, respectively; for an MRA they were 55% and 46%, respectively. The proportion of patients using receiving all 3 drugs decreased as frailty increased, with approximately twice the rate of use of triple therapy in category I patients (40.2%) compared to category IV patients (23.4%) [p<0.001] (Figure 1). In adjusted analyses, the severity of frailty was an independent predictor for non-use of an ACEi/ARB (Odds ratio (OR): 1.23, 95% CI: 1.05–1.43, per 1 category increase) and a beta-blocker (OR: 1.32, 95% CI: 1.06–1.64), but not an MRA (OR: 0.97, 95% CI: 0.84–1.12). Risk of the composite outcome of all-cause death or HF rehospitalization increased with decreasing use of treatment across frailty categories: category I-II (Hazard ratio (HR): 1.80, 95% CI: 1.08–2.98, in 0–1 drug with 3 drugs as reference) and III–IV (HR: 1.53, 95% CI: 1.01–2.32). The relationship between the number of HF drugs prescribed and the composite outcome did not differ across frailty categories (p-interaction=0.86). The HRs for all 12 groups, reflecting frailty categories and a number of HF drugs is depicted in Figure 2. The HRs for composite outcome increased with increasing frailty category and with decreasing number of drugs, with an almost 4-fold difference in risk between the least frail patients receiving all three evidence-based therapies and the most frail receiving only 0–1 drug.
Conclusions
Prescription of guideline-recommended therapy decreased as the severity of frailty increased in patients with HFrEF. Sub-optimal medical therapy was associated with a worse outcome and underprescription of guideline-recommended therapy may contribute to the poor prognosis associated with frailty. An effective strategy is needed to improve the medical treatment of frail patients with HFrEF.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Mutations in the LMNA gene encoding Lamin A/C, a major component of the nuclear lamina, cause laminopathies including dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM). DCM patients with LMNA mutations have particularly severe clinical courses such as heart transplantation and death due to heart failure. However, underlying mechanisms of LMNA-induced DCM remains elusive.
Methods and results
We identified LMNA Q353R mutation in a DCM family with severe heart failure. We generated Q353R heterozygous knock-in mice, which showed sarcomere dysplasia and perinatal lethality. Integrative single-cell analyses of the fetal murine hearts and patient-specific induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes (iPSCMs) revealed that transcriptional regulation of cardiomyocyte maturation/development genes governed by TEAD1 was impaired in LMNA mutant cardiomyocytes. Protein array and immunostaining uncovered increased binding of TEAD1 to mutant Lamin A/C protein and abnormal localization of TEAD1 at the nuclear periphery. Furthermore, TT-10, a Hippo pathway inhibitor, rescued the dysregulation of cardiac developmental genes in LMNA mutant cardiomyocytes. Single-cell RNA-seq of cardiac tissues from DCM patients with the LMNA Q353R mutation confirmed the dysregulated expression of TEAD1 and its target genes. These results demonstrated abnormal interaction between TEAD1 and mutant Lamin A/C impairs structural maturation of cardiomyocytes and suggests that LMNA Q353R-related DCM can be treated through intervention in the Hippo pathway.
Conclusion
TEAD1 trapped by mutant Lamin A/C protein at the nuclear membrane perturbs transcriptional maturation in LMNA Q353R-related DCM.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Walking speed (WS) is one of the key components of physical frailty associated with a prognosis in patients with heart failure (HF). However, the prognostic impact of changes in WS after discharge in patients with HF remains to be examined.
Purpose
The purpose of this study was to examined the association between the change in WS during 6 months after discharge and subsequent prognosis in older patients with HF.
Methods
This study was performed as a sub-analysis of the multicenter cohort study in Japan (FLAGSHIP). We analyzed patients hospitalized for HF aged ≥65 years whose WS was measured at discharge and after 6 months of discharge. Based on the patterns of WS at the two points, patients were divided into four groups (A: WS ≥0.98 m/s both at discharge and 6-month; B: ≥0.98 m/s at discharge, <0.98 m/s at 6-month; C: <0.98 m/s at discharge, ≥0.98 m/s at 6-month; D: <0.98 m/s both at discharge and 6-month). WS <0.98 m/s has been identified as a cut-off value predicting the prognosis of HF in the main analysis of the FLAGSHIP. Kruskal - Wallis test was used to compare among groups. Furthermore, Cox proportional hazards model was performed to evaluate the association between the WS subgroups and HF rehospitalization after 6-month of discharge. Additionally, adjustments were made for age and sex in model 1, and for age, sex, cognitive function (Mini-mental state examination, MMSE ≤23), past HF hospitalization, rehospitalization within 6 months after discharge, and variables with a p value <0.05 both at discharge and 6 months in univariate analysis in model 2.
Results
A total of 890 patients were included in this study (Group A: n=386, B: n=51, C: n=143, D: n=310). There was a significant difference in HF rehospitalization after 6-month of discharge among the four groups (Log-rank test, p=0.01, Figure 1). In the crude model, hazard ratio (HR) of group B compared with A was 2.26 [95% confidence interval: 1.19–4.27, p=0.013], HR of C was 1.00 [0.56–1.77, p=0.988], and HR of D was 1.66 [1.11–2.47, p=0.013]. In model 1, HR of B was 2.12 [1.11–4.07, p=0.023], HR of C was 0.99 [0.56–1.75, p=0.964], and HR of D was 1.56 [1.01–2.42, p=0.047]. In model 2, HR of B was 0.95 [0.45–1.97, p=0.897], HR of C was 0.67 [0.35–1.26, p=0.212], and HR of D was [0.25–0.80, p=0.007].
Conclusion
Although slow WS is associated with poor prognosis, the prognosis might be improved if WS increases by 6 months after discharge.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The present study aimed to investigate the effects of a 4-week repeated oral intake of a quercetin-containing supplement on allergen-induced reactions and relative subjective symptoms in Japanese adults who complained of discomfort in the eyes and nose. SUBJECTS AND METHODS A randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind parallel-group study was conducted on 66 subjects (22-78 years old) with allergic symptoms of pollinosis. The subjects were given the test product (200 mg quercetin) or the control product (vehicle) daily for 4 weeks. The Japanese Rhino-conjunctivitis Quality of Life Questionnaire (JRQLQ) scores and other tests were examined in each subject before and after starting the product intake. A new food-grade bioavailable formulation of quercetin, Quercetin phytosome®, was used. RESULTS At 1:4 weeks after the start of the supplement intake, several scores of JRQLQ, including allergic symptoms, such as eye itching, sneezing, nasal discharge, and sleep disorder, were significantly improved in the quercetin-containing supplement group compared with the placebo group. Furthermore, the quality of life of these subjects significantly improved based on the original questionnaire and visual analog scale. Minor notable adverse effects were noted throughout the study. CONCLUSIONS The results indicated that oral intake of quercetin-containing supplements might effectively reduce some allergy symptoms derived from pollinosis.

Abstract
BackgroundKnee joint disorder is one of the factors causing frailty in the elderly, which is associated with a decrease in walking speed.ObjectivesWe measured the walking speed of patients scheduled to undergo primary total knee arthroplasty (TKA) and examined factors correlated with walking speed.MethodsThe patients with knee disorders scheduled to undergo knee arthroplasty at our hospital between July 2020 and May 2021 were included. They were assessed for basic attributes, clinical assessment including Kness Society Score (KSS), degree of pain on walking by visual analogue scale (VAS), range of motion (ROM), and also leg skeletal muscle mass index (SMI; whole-body mode DXA), quadriceps strength by dynamometer with written consent (UMIN ID: 000040940). And Japanese Cardiovascular Health Study criteria for frailty, and sarcopenia by Asian Working Group for Sarcopenia 2019 criteria were evaluated.ResultsDemographic data of 83 patients (65 women, mean age 74.9 years) included in this study was shown in Table 1. The distribution in frailty is 36.2% and that in sarcopenia is 7.3%. Most of the patients with frailty with knee disorder did not suffer from sarcopenia. A multivariate analysis was conducted with walking speed as the objective variable and the dependent variables as age, gender, pain VAS on walking, KSS, leg SMI, quadriceps strength, and ROM. The results showed that age and ROM in flexion were significantly and independently associated with walking speed (P=0.01, 0.03). Gender, pain VAS on walking, KSS, leg SMI, quadriceps strength, and ROM in extension were not significantly associated with walking speed (P=0.92, 0.11, 0.11, 0.52, 0.85, 0.52).ConclusionAmong the patients with knee disorders immediately before arthroplasty, frailty was not caused by sarcopenia. Age was found to be the most correlated factor with walking speed, and walking speed became slower with age. In addition, poor flexion angle was also the factor for delayed walking speed, but it did not correlate with lower limb skeletal muscle mass or quadriceps strength. In this study pain on walking was not significant factor for walking speed, because it was observed in most of all cases.FactorGroup disease (n)osteoarthritis78 (94%) rheumatoid arthritis5 (6.0%)body mass index (kg/m2) 25.54 (4.11)pain VAS on walking 37.08 (26.35)total Knee Society Score 77.66 (27.85)range of motion (degree)flexion119.46 (12.88) extension-9.58 (6.59)quadriceps power (N) 122.00 [53.00, 350.00]waling speed (m/sec) 0.95 (0.33)grip power (kg) 20.24 (6.97)skeletal muscle mass index (kg/m2)appendicular6.50 [4.92, 9.85] lower limb5.06 [3.76, 7.56]Frailty (n)none10 (12.5%)Pre-frail41 (51.2%) frail29 (36.2%)Sarcopenia (n)none76 (92.7%)sarcopenia4 (4.9%) severe sarcopenia2 (2.4%)mean (standard deviation); median [min max]Disclosure of InterestsNone declared

Abstract
BackgroundDifficult-to-treat rheumatoid arthritis (D2T RA) is defined as RA in which disease activity is uncontrolled despite the use of two or more biologics or Janus kinase inhibitors (JAKi) with different mechanisms of action (MOA).ObjectivesTo explore the optimal treatment strategy for D2T RA, we evaluated the drug retention, efficacy, and reasons for discontinuation of biologics or JAKi used for patients with D2T RA in a longitudinal multicenter cohort.MethodsRA patients with clinical disease activity index (CDAI) >10 despite the use of at least two biologics or JAKi with different MOA and further treated with biologics or JAKi were included. The drug retention rates of biologics (TNFi, IL-6Ri, and CTLA4-Ig) or JAKi were estimated at 12 months using the Kaplan-Meier method and adjusted for potential confounders (age, sex, disease duration, concomitant MTX and PSL use, and the number of switched biologics or JAKi) using Cox proportional hazards models.ResultsA total of 251 treatment courses (TCs) from 167 patients were included (TNFi: 97 TCs, IL-6Ri: 67 TCs, CTLA4-Ig: 27 TCs, JAKi: 60 TCs). Baseline characteristics showed no difference in age, sex, disease duration, ACPA positivity, CDAI, and concomitant MTX and PSL use between the four groups. Drug retention excluding non-toxic reasons and remission was significantly higher in patients treated with JAKi or IL-6Ri than in patients treated with TNFi or CTLA4-Ig (P=0.00172). Multivariate analysis using Cox proportional hazards models demonstrated that discontinuation of the drug was associated with the use of TNFi or CTLA4-Ig (HR: 3.29, 95%CI: 1.15-9.42, P=0.027) and concomitant PSL use (HR: 1.14, 95%CI: 1.04-1.26, P=0.0084). In terms of disease activity evaluated with CDAI, no difference was observed between the four groups at 3 months (P=0.90), at 6 months (P=0.77), and at 12 months (P=0.75).ConclusionIn patients with D2T RA, JAKi or IL-6Ri may have treatment advantages compared with TNFi or CTLA4-Ig.References[1] EULAR definition of difficult-to-treat rheumatoid arthritis.Nagy G, Roodenrijs NMT, Welsing PM, Kedves M, Hamar A, van der Goes MC, Kent A, Bakkers M, Blaas E, Senolt L, Szekanecz Z, Choy E, Dougados M, Jacobs JW, Geenen R, Bijlsma HW, Zink A, Aletaha D, Schoneveld L, van Riel P, Gutermann L, Prior Y, Nikiphorou E, Ferraccioli G, Schett G, Hyrich KL, Mueller-Ladner U, Buch MH, McInnes IB, van der Heijde D, van Laar JM.Ann Rheum Dis. 2021 Jan;80(1):31-35.[2] Prevalence and predictive factors of difficult-to-treat rheumatoid arthritis: the KURAMA cohort.Watanabe R, Hashimoto M, Murata K, Murakami K, Tanaka M, Ohmura K, Ito H, Matsuda S.Immunol Med. 2021 May 25:1-10.Disclosure of InterestsRyu Watanabe Speakers bureau: Eli Lilly, Mitsubishi Tanabe, Pfizer, Sanofi, AbbVie, Asahi Kasei, Eisai, Bristol-Myers Squibb, UCB Japan, Chugai, Janssen, Astellas, Nippon Shinyaku, Daiichi Sankyo, Gilead Sciences Japan, and Boehringer ingelheim., Tadashi Okano Speakers bureau: Asahi Kasei, Astellas, Abbvie, Amgen, Ayumi, Chugai, Daiichi-Sankyo, Eisai, Eli Lilly, Gilead Sciences, Janssen, Kyowa Kirin, Mitsubishi Tanabe, Novartis, Ono, Pfizer, Sanofi, Takeda, UCB, Grant/research support from: Asahi Kasei, Abbvie, Chugai, Eisai, Mitsubishi Tanabe, Shinsuke Yamada: None declared, Wataru Yamamoto: None declared, Koichi Murata Speakers bureau: Eisai Co., Ltd., Chugai Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd.; Asahi Kasei Pharma Corp.; and Mitsubishi Tanabe Pharma Co., and Daiichi Sankyo Co.

Abstract
We have measured the 3d→2p transition x rays of kaonic ^{3}He and ^{4}He atoms using superconducting transition-edge-sensor microcalorimeters with an energy resolution better than 6 eV (FWHM). We determined the energies to be 6224.5±0.4(stat)±0.2(syst) eV and 6463.7±0.3(stat)±0.1(syst) eV, and widths to be 2.5±1.0(stat)±0.4(syst) eV and 1.0±0.6(stat)±0.3(stat) eV, for kaonic ^{3}He and ^{4}He, respectively. These values are nearly 10 times more precise than in previous measurements. Our results exclude the large strong-interaction shifts and widths that are suggested by a coupled-channel approach and agree with calculations based on optical-potential models.

Abstract
Enforced enrichment of the active promoter marks trimethylation of histone H3 lysine 4 (H3K4me3) and acetylation of histone H3 lysine 27 (H3K27ac) by inhibiting histone demethylases and deacetylases is positively associated with hard tissue formation through the induction of osteo/odontogenic differentiation. However, the key endogenous epigenetic modulator of odontoblasts to regulate the expression of genes coding dentin extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins has not been identified. We focused on nuclear factor (NF)-κB inhibitor ζ (IκBζ), which was originally identified as the transcriptional regulator of NF-κB and recently regarded as the NF-κB-independent epigenetic modulator, and found that IκBζ null mice exhibit a thicker dentin width and narrower pulp chamber, with aged mice having more marked phenotypes. At 6 mo of age, dentin fluorescent labeling revealed significantly accelerated dentin synthesis in the incisors of IκBζ null mice. In the molars of IκBζ null mice, marked tertiary dentin formation adjacent to the pulp horn was observed. Mechanistically, the expression of COL1A2 and COL1A1 collagen genes increased more in the odontoblast-rich fraction of IκBζ null mice than in wild type in vivo, similar to human odontoblast-like cells transfected with small interfering RNA for IκBζ compared with cells transfected with control siRNA in vitro. Furthermore, the direct binding of IκBζ to the COL1A2 promoter suppressed COL1A2 expression and the local active chromatin status marked by H3K4me3. Based on whole-genome identification of H3K4me3 enrichment, ECM and ECM organization-related gene loci were selectively activated by the knockdown of IκBζ, which consistently resulted in the upregulation of these genes. Collectively, this study suggested that IκBζ is the key negative regulator of dentin formation in odontoblasts by inhibiting dentin ECM- and ECM organization-related gene expression through an altered local chromatin status marked by H3K4me3. Therefore, IκBζ is a potential target for epigenetically improving the clinical outcomes of dentin regeneration therapies such as pulp capping.

Abstract
We report a measurement of the D^{0} and D^{+} lifetimes using D^{0}→K^{-}π^{+} and D^{+}→K^{-}π^{+}π^{+} decays reconstructed in e^{+}e^{-}→cc[over ¯] data recorded by the Belle II experiment at the SuperKEKB asymmetric-energy e^{+}e^{-} collider. The data, collected at center-of-mass energies at or near the ϒ(4S) resonance, correspond to an integrated luminosity of 72 fb^{-1}. The results, τ(D^{0})=410.5±1.1(stat)±0.8(syst) fs and τ(D^{+})=1030.4±4.7(stat)±3.1(syst) fs, are the most precise to date and are consistent with previous determinations.

Abstract
A search for the flavor-changing neutral-current decay B^{+}→K^{+}νν[over ¯] is performed at the Belle II experiment at the SuperKEKB asymmetric energy electron-positron collider. The data sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 63 fb^{-1} collected at the ϒ(4S) resonance and a sample of 9 fb^{-1} collected at an energy 60 MeV below the resonance. Because the measurable decay signature involves only a single charged kaon, a novel measurement approach is used that exploits not only the properties of the B^{+}→K^{+}νν[over ¯] decay, but also the inclusive properties of the other B meson in the ϒ(4S)→BB[over ¯] event, to suppress the background from other B meson decays and light-quark pair production. This inclusive tagging approach offers a higher signal efficiency compared to previous searches. No significant signal is observed. An upper limit on the branching fraction of B^{+}→K^{+}νν[over ¯] of 4.1×10^{-5} is set at the 90% confidence level.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Cardiac rehabilitation (CR) is a comprehensive disease management program highly recommended by heart failure (HF) guidelines. However, the prognostic effects of outpatient CR are inconsistent among recent meta-analyses which enrolled mainly younger HF with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). With an aging population, an increased importance of CR has been put on patients with HF with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF).
Purpose
This study aimed to examine the prognostic effects of regularly undergoing CR for 6 months after discharge analysing nationwide cohort data including older population with HFrEF and HFpEF.
Methods
We analysed 2876 patients who hospitalised for acute HF or worsening chronic HF and capable of walking at discharge in the multicentre prospective cohort study. Frequency of outpatient CR participation of each patient was collected using medical records. We assessed CR frequency within 6 months of discharge since most collaborating hospitals conducted final follow-up examinations at 6 months. The CR group was defined as patients who underwent outpatient CR once or more per week for 6 months after discharge. The main study endpoint was a composite of all-cause mortality and HF rehospitalisation during a 2-year follow-up. We performed a propensity score-matched analysis to compare survival rates between the CR and non-CR groups. Propensity scores for each patient were produced by a logistic regression analysis with the CR group as the dependent variable and 33 potential confounders as independent variables. To evaluate events beyond 6 months, we also conducted landmark analyses at 6 months.
Results
Of the 2876 enrolled patients, 313 underwent CR for 6 months. After propensity score matching using confounding factors, 626 patients (313 pairs) were included in the survival analysis (median age: 74 years, men: 59.6%, median left ventricular ejection fraction [LVEF]: 42%). During 1006.1 person-years of follow-up, 137 patients were rehospitalised due to HF exacerbation, and 50 patients died in the matched cohort. In Cox proportional hazards model (Figure 1), CR was associated with a reduced risk of composite outcomes (hazard ratio [HR] 0.66; 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.48–0.91), all-cause mortality (HR 0.53; 95% CI 0.30–0.95), and HF rehospitalisation (HR 0.66; 95% CI 0.47–0.92). A subgroup analysis showed similar CR effects in patients with HFpEF (LVEF ≥50%) and HFrEF (LVEF <40%). However, in a landmark analysis, CR did not reduce the adverse outcomes beyond 6 months after discharge (Figure 2).
Conclusions
The findings of this study demonstrate the needs that CR should become a standard treatment for HF regardless of HF type and the necessity of periodical follow-up after completing CR program to maintain its prognostic effects.

Abstract
Abstract
Recent hemodynamic studies have demonstrated that progression of coronary atherosclerosis occurs at low wall share-stress site, whereas plaque rupture frequently occurs at high share stress site. It is well recognized that wall shear stress is relatively low along the outer walls of the bifurcation.
We investigated consecutive 140 patients (77 with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and 63 with chronic coronary syndrome (CCS) performed PCI for LAD proximal lesions (AHA seg.6) from January 2016 to December 2019. In CCS group, entry criteria included stenosis of at least 90% in the LAD proximal lesion or at least 70% in the LAD proximal lesion and objective evidence of myocardial ischemia (inducible ischemia with either exercise or pharmacologic vasodilator stress or with pressure wire). Exclusion criteria were patients with maintenance dialysis, chronic total occlusion lesions, in-stent restenosis, and clinically diagnosed unstable angina without troponin I elevation. We measured the distance from LMT distal carina to the culprit site (Distance) and plaque location (Location) with intravascular ultrasound and angle between LMT and LAD with cardiovascular angiography analysis system (CAAS) (Angle).
The two groups were generally well balanced with regard to baseline clinical characteristics. The mean (±SD) age of the patients was 69.0±11.8 years, and 75% were men. Medication at baseline was also similar between two groups except higher prevalence of statin prescription in CCS group. The Distance was shorter and Angle was steeper in CCS group than in ACS group. The number of patients with Angle less than 150 degrees and with Location in the lateral wall side was much more in CCS group.
In this study, plaques in CCS were frequently observed at low shear stress site, whereas those in ACS at high shear stress site. Plaque progression in CCS may be associated with low wall shear stress, and high shear stress may play key role in plaque rupture in ACS. This anatomical difference can partly explain the different mechanisms of onset between of ACS and CCS.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE: To retrospectively evaluate the clinical outcomes of pre-operative endovascular coil embolisation (ECE) for chronic pulmonary aspergillosis (CPA).METHODS: We evaluated surgical patients with CPA between November 2016 and April 2020. Pre-operative ECE for CPA with severe adhesions was selectively performed to reduce intra-operative blood loss. ECE procedures, operative procedures, intra-operative blood loss and complications were evaluated.RESULTS: Twenty-eight patients (21 males and 7 females; median age: 55 years) were included in the study. Of the 28 patients, 8 (28.6%) underwent pre-operative ECE. Technical success rate in pre-operative ECE was 100%. The median time required for ECE procedures was 123 min. The median number of vessels embolised per procedure was 2.5. The median period between embolisation and surgery was 5 days. Major complications were observed in three patients (10.7%). There were no significant differences between patients with and without pre-operative ECE in operative time (284 vs. 365 min, respectively, P = 0.7602) and intra-operative blood loss (294 vs. 228 mL, respectively, P = 0.8987).CONCLUSIONS: Pre-operative ECE for CPA appears to be feasible and safe; however, its role in reducing intra-operative blood loss needs further investigation.

Abstract
We observed electronic K x rays emitted from muonic iron atoms using superconducting transition-edge sensor microcalorimeters. The energy resolution of 5.2 eV in FWHM allowed us to observe the asymmetric broad profile of the electronic characteristic Kα and Kβ x rays together with the hypersatellite K^{h}α x rays around 6 keV. This signature reflects the time-dependent screening of the nuclear charge by the negative muon and the L-shell electrons, accompanied by electron side feeding. Assisted by a simulation, these data clearly reveal the electronic K- and L-shell hole production and their temporal evolution on the 10-20 fs scale during the muon cascade process.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of high tibial osteotomy (HTO) on the biological status of knee osteoarthritis (OA) using joint markers in synovial fluid (SF). METHODS Fifty patients with medial compartmental OA of the knee who underwent opening wedge HTO were enrolled. Paired SF samples from the affected knee and arthroscopic evaluation of articular cartilage were collected at the time of HTO surgery and the time of plate removal (postoperative 17 ± 4 months). The concentrations of the following SF biomarkers were measured: interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-6, IL-8, IL-10, tumour necrosis factor-α, matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-2, MMP-3, MMP-9, MMP-13, vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), and cartilage oligomeric matrix protein (COMP). The Knee Society Score (KSS) and hip-knee-ankle (HKA) angle were assessed before and 2 years after HTO. RESULTS The KSS knee and function scores were significantly improved after HTO (mean changes of 36.4 and 23.7, respectively). The mean HKA angle was altered from mechanical varus (-8.6°) to valgus (5.2°). Concentrations of IL-6, IL-8, MMP-2, MMP-3, MMP-13, VEGF, and COMP in SF were significantly decreased after HTO (mean changes of -49.1%, -30.2%, -31.1%, -26.3%, -30.8%, -42.5%, and -13.7% from preoperative baseline, respectively). The cartilage status was improved in 19 cases (38%) after HTO. However, changes of all biomarkers were not significantly different between subjects with and without an improved cartilage status. CONCLUSIONS SF levels of biochemical markers for cartilage degradation and synovial inflammation were altered after HTO, suggesting an improvement in the OA disease state.

Abstract
AIM To explore changes in left ventricular (LV) function and the relationship of these changes with myocardial blood flow (MBF) evaluated by 13N-ammonia hybrid positron-emission tomography (PET)/magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) during vasodilator stress in patients with suspected coronary artery disease (CAD). MATERIALS AND METHODS Fifty-two consecutive patients with suspected CAD, who underwent 13N-ammonia PET/MRI, were enrolled. Vasodilator stress was induced by intravenous injection of adenosine. MBF and coronary flow reserve (CFR) were calculated from dynamic acquisition of 13N-ammonia PET. LV function was evaluated by MRI both at rest and during vasodilator stress. An abnormal perfusion on myocardial images was defined as a summed difference score of ≥4. RESULTS MRI showed that the LV end-diastolic volume, LV end-systolic volume, and LV ejection fraction (LVEF) remained unchanged during vasodilator stress in all patients (n=52) as well as in the patients with CFR of <2 (n=27), stress MBF of <1.3 ml/g/min (n=28), abnormal myocardial perfusion (n=30), and more than one diseased vessel (n=46). In only four patients, the LVEF measured by MRI decreased by >5% during vasodilator stress. In these four patients, CFR was lower (1.57 ± 0.12 versus 2.18 ± 0.86, p<0.01) and the number of diseased vessels was higher (2.75 ± 0.50 versus 1.48 ± 0.92, p<0.01) than in patients without post-stress LV dysfunction. CONCLUSION The LV volume and systolic function evaluated by cardiac MRI remained unchanged during vasodilator stress; however, LV dysfunction during vasodilator stress may occur in patients with severe CAD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Oscillatory shear stress could not be directly measured in consideration of direction, although cerebrospinal fluid has repetitive movements synchronized with heartbeat. Our aim was to evaluate the important of oscillatory shear stress in the cerebral aqueduct and foramen magnum in idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus by comparing it with wall shear stress and the oscillatory shear index in patients with idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus. MATERIALS AND METHODS By means of the 4D flow application, oscillatory shear stress, wall shear stress, and the oscillatory shear index were measured in 41 patients with idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus, 23 with co-occurrence of idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus and Alzheimer-type dementia, and 9 age-matched controls. These shear stress parameters at the cerebral aqueduct were compared with apertures and stroke volumes at the foramen of Magendie and cerebral aqueduct. RESULTS Two wall shear stress magnitude peaks during a heartbeat were changed to periodic oscillation by converting oscillatory shear stress. The mean oscillatory shear stress amplitude and time-averaged wall shear stress values at the dorsal and ventral regions of the cerebral aqueduct in the idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus groups were significantly higher than those in controls. Furthermore, those at the ventral region of the cerebral aqueduct in the idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus group were also significantly higher than those in the co-occurrence of idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus with Alzheimer-type dementia group. The oscillatory shear stress amplitude at the dorsal region of the cerebral aqueduct was significantly associated with foramen of Magendie diameters, whereas it was strongly associated with the stroke volume at the upper end of the cerebral aqueduct rather than that at the foramen of Magendie. CONCLUSIONS Oscillatory shear stress, which reflects wall shear stress vector changes better than the conventional wall shear stress magnitude and the oscillatory shear index, can be directly measured on 4D flow MR imaging. Oscillatory shear stress at the cerebral aqueduct was considerably higher in patients with idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Weight loss (WL) has been considered as a prognostic factor in heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). However, the prognosis and associated factors of WL in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) have remained unclear.
Purpose
This study aimed to examine the prevalence, prognosis, and clinical characteristics of worse prognosis based on the identified WL after discharge in HFpEF.
Methods
The study was conducted as a part of a multicenter cohort study (Flagship). The cohort study enrolled ambulatory HF who hospitalized due to acute HF or exacerbation of chronic HF. Patients with severe cognitive, psychological disorders or readmitted within 6-month after discharge were excluded in the study. WL was defined as ≥5% weight loss in 6-month after discharge and HFpEF was defined as left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≥50% at discharge. Age, gender, etiology, prior HF hospitalization, New York Heart Association (NYHA) class, brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) or N-terminal-proBNP (NT-proBNP), anemia (hemoglobin; male <13g/dL, female <12g/dL), serum albumin, Geriatric Depression Scale, hand grip strength and comorbidities were collected at discharge. Patients were stratified according to their body mass index (BMI) at discharge as non-obese (BMI <25) or obese (BMI ≥25). We analyzed the association between WL and HF rehospitalization from 6 month to 2 years after discharge using Kaplan-Meier curve analysis and Cox regression analysis adjusted for age and gender, and clinical characteristics associated to worse prognosis in WL using logistic regression analysis adjusted for potential confounders in HFpEF.
Results
A total of 619 patients with HFpEF were included in the analysis. The prevalence of WL was 12.9% in 482 non-obese and 15.3% in 137 obese patients. During 2 years, 72 patients were readmitted for HF (non-obese: 48, obese: 24). WL in non-obese independently associated with poor prognosis (hazard ratio: 2.2: 95% confidence interval: 1.13–4.25) after adjustment for age and sex, while WL in obese patients did not. Logistic regression analysis chose age (odds ratio 1.02 per 1 year; 1.00–1.05), anemia (2.14; 1.32–3.48), and BNP ≥200pg/mL or NT-proBNP ≥900pg/mL (1.83; 1.18–2.86) as independent associated factors for worse prognosis of WL in non-obese patients.
Conclusion
In HFpEF, WL in early after discharge in non-obese elderly patients may be a prognostic indicator for HF rehospitalization. HF management including WL prevention along with controlling anemia is likely to improve prognosis in this population.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Long-term prognosis after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), particularly non-target region stenosis, has not been well improved. Therefore, lifestyle modification should be considered along with medication to prevent the progression of coronary atherosclerosis. Particularly, the promotion of physical activity (PA) is recommended as a core intervention for secondary prevention because of its direct effects on coronary risk factors. However, the factors related to PA after PCI have not been fully investigated.
Purpose
To explore predictors of PA after discharge in patients underwent PCI.
Methods
We conducted a multicenter prospective cohort study. Participants were patients aged <75 years who underwent PCI. The main outcome was PA {step counts (SC) and a time of moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA)} measured for 7 consecutive days using an accelerometer at 3-month post discharge. We collected demographic data, comorbidities, medical history, laboratory data, and medications from medical record. In addition, severity of chest pain at the onset, physician's explanation regarding long-term prognosis, exercise environments, social support, work, lifestyle except exercise, self-efficacy for walking, difficulty in daily activities and depression were evaluated using questionnaires at discharge and 1-month post-discharge. The study participants were divided into two groups based on the median SC and MVPA at 3-month, and clinical characteristics were compared between the groups using χ2test or Mann Whitney U test. Then, multiple logistic regression analysis adjusted for age, gender, and diagnosis {stable angina or acute coronary syndrome (ACS)} was conducted with 3-month PA as dependent variable. Independent variables were those with a p<0.2 in the univariate analysis. In addition, the area under the curve (AUC) was calculated by receiver operating characteristic analysis to assess predictive accuracy of the regression model.
Results
We enrolled 313 patients [median age: 63 {inter-quartile range (IQR):56–67} years, women: 13.1%, ACS: 16.4%]. The median of SC and MVPA at 3-month were 6902 steps (IQR:5078–9095) and 16.2 min (IQR: 8.6–28.9), respectively. Predictors of SC at 3-month ≥the median were SC at 1-month (odds ratio 1.78, per 1000 steps/day; 95% confidence interval 1.51–2.09), hemoglobin (1.43, per 1g/dl; 1.10–1.86), body mass index (BMI) (0.87, per 1kg/m2; 0.82–0.99), use of β-blocker (0.49, 0.25–0.95), and self-efficacy for walking (1.06, per 1 point; 1.00–1.11). Predictors of MVPA ≥the median were MVPA at 1-month (5.66, per 10 minutes/day; 3.63–8.84), hemoglobin (1.57, per 1g/dl; 1.19–2.06), and BMI (0.85, per 1kg/m2; 0.76–0.94). The AUC of the regression model for SC and MVPA were 0.87 and 0.89, respectively.
Conclusion
PA after PCI could be predicted by modifiable factors with good predictive accuracy. The findings of this study suggest the possibility to develop tailored PA promotion program.
