Abstract
BackgroundRheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic autoimmune disease that primarily affects the multiple joints.The elucidation of the pathogenesis of RA has progressed dramatically in recent decades, and among the many cytokines involved in the pathogenesis of RA, interleukin (IL)-6 and TNF-α are known to be the major pro-inflammatory cytokines that are abundant in the bloodstream and synovial tissue. JAK inhibitors (JAKinibs) such as tofacitinib and baricitinib are used in the treatment of RA by inhibiting JAK, which in turn inhibits the signaling of various cytokines including IL-6. However, predictors of the response to JAKinibs are still required.ObjectivesWe aimed to combine soluble TNF receptor (sTNFR) I, sTNFR II, IL-6, soluble IL-6R (sIL-6R) and soluble gp130 (sgp130) levels to identify groups of JAKinibs responses in RA patients.MethodsThis research is a retrospective study. We reviewed medical records of RA patients initiating JAKinibs between July 2013 and July 2021 in our hospital. The Simplified Disease Activity Index (SDAI) was evaluated at baseline and 3, 6 months after JAKinibs administration. Clinical remission was defined when SDAI decreased ≤ 3.3. Of the 125 patients treated with JAKinibs, 89 patients with 6 months follow-up, valid SDAI and serum available were enrolled. Serum samples were tested for IL-6 (Human IL-6 Quantikine ELISA Kit, R&D systems), sIL-6R (Human soluble IL-6R alpha Quantikine ELISA Kit, R&D systems) and sgp130 (Human soluble gp130 Quantikine ELISA Kit, R&D systems), sTNFR I (Human TNF RI/TNFRSF1A Quantikine ELISA Kit DRT100) and sTNFR II (Human sTNF RII/TNFRSF1B Quantikine ELISA Kit DRT200) using specific ELISAs according to the manufacturer’s instructions. The statistical analyses were performed with EZR 1.55, and p values less than 0.05 were considered significant.ResultsThe median age of patients was 62 (IQR: 51 - 72) years and the median of disease duration was 6.0 (2.0 - 16.0) years. Twenty-seven (30.3%) patients were biologics and Jakinibs naive. The baseline SDAI was median 18.9 (12.7 - 27.9). When comparing SDAI-remission group (clinical remission: CR) and non-remission group, there were no significant differences in any of the baseline clinical parameters. There was no significant difference in the serum levels of IL-6, sIL-6R and sgp130 between the CR and non-CR groups, but the serum levels of sTNFR I and sTNFR II in the CR group were significantly lower than non-CR group. Univariate logistic regression analysis suggested Biologics and JAKinibs naive (odds ratio (OR) 3.58, p = 0.015), baseline Log sTNFR II levels (OR 0.013, P=0.034) as predictors of SDAI remission treated with JAKinibs at 6 months. Although not significant, Stage IV (OR 0.211, P=0.082) and baseline Log sTNFR I serum levels (OR 0.013, P=0.065) were associated with clinical remission.ConclusionRA patients could be easily stratified prior to JAKinibs intervention with serum sTNFR II and sTNFR I levels, not but IL-6 axis cytokines (IL-6, sIL-6R and sgp130).Univariate logistic regression analysis for clinical remission in patients treated with JAKinibs.

Abstract
BackgroundIL-6 contributes significantly to the chronic inflammatory process of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and is elevated in serum and synovial fluid of RA patients.Sarilumab (SRL), a human anti-human IL-6 receptor alpha monoclonal antibody that blocks the signaling originated by the IL-6/IL-6R complex like tocilizumab (TCZ),is an effective treatment. Recently, an association between the therapeutic effect of TCZ and neutropenia after TCZ initiation was reported[1]. Neutropenia is a common adverse event of SRL in patients with RA, but the relationship between reduced neutrophil count and clinical response to SRL is still inconclusive. In EULAR 2020, we reported the association between serum soluble gp130 levels before SRL treatment and the efficacy of SRL[2]. It is also unclear whether there is a relationship between IL-6 axis cytokines and SRL-induced neutropenia.ObjectivesThe purpose of this study was to determine whether neutropenia at 1 month by SRL predicts clinical remission within 3 months and whether there is an association between IL-6 axis cytokines levels and SRL-induced neutropenia.MethodsThis research is a retrospective study. We reviewed medical records of RA patients initiating SRL between February 2018 and August 2021 in our hospital. The Clinical Disease Activity Index (CDAI) was evaluated at baseline (before initiating SRL) and 3 months after administration. Clinical remission was defined when CDAI decreased ≤ 2.8. Of the 66 patients treated with SRL, 42 patients with 3 months follow-up, valid CDAI and serum available were enrolled. The ratio of neutrophil counts 1 month after initiating SRL to those at baseline (neutrophil ratio) was also calculated. Serum samples were tested for IL-6 (Human IL-6 Quantikine ELISA Kit, R&D systems), sIL-6R (Human soluble IL-6R alpha Quantikine ELISA Kit, R&D systems) and sgp130 (Human soluble gp130 Quantikine ELISA Kit, R&D systems) using specific ELISAs according to the manufacturer’s instructions. The statistical analyses were performed with EZR 1.55, and p values less than 0.05 were considered significant.ResultsThe median age of patients was 69.0 (IQR: 59.3 - 73.8) years and the median of disease duration was 9.0 (3.0 - 16.0) years. Eighteen (42.9%) patients were biologics and Jakinibs naive. The baseline CDAI was median 16.7 (11.5 - 25.8). When comparing CDAI-remission group (clinical remission: CR) and non-CR group, Patients in the CR group had significantly shorter disease duration, were more Biologic and JAKinib naive, and had greater neutropenia 1 month after starting SRL (0.71 vs 0.94, P=0.0252). There was no significant difference in the baseline serum levels of IL-6, sIL-6R between the CR and non-CR groups, but baseline serum sgp130 levels in the CR group tended to be higher than in the non-CR group (264.9 vs 234.2 ng/mL, P=0.0592). Univariate logistic regression analysis suggested Biologics and JAKinibs naive (odds ratio (OR) 6.68, p = 0.0317), baseline serum sgp130 levels (OR 8.608, P=0.0312) as predictors of CDAI remission treated with SRL at 3 months. Although not significant, neutrophil ratio ≤ 0.8 was associated with achieving remission (OR 6.67, P=0.0537). Univariate logistic regression for neutrophil ratio ≤ 0.8 did not show any relevant factors, including higher baseline serum sgp130 levels (OR 1.25, P=0.782).ConclusionA 20% or greater decrease in neutrophil count after 1 month of SRL treatment and a high baseline serum sgp130 level independently predict clinical remission within 3 months.References[1]Nakajima T, Watanabe R, Hashimoto M, Murata K, Murakami K, Tanaka M, et al.

Abstract
Background:Mac-2 binding protein is a cell-adhesive glycoprotein of the extracellular matrix secreted as a ligand of galectin-3 (Mac-2). Recently, a Wisteria floribunda agglutinin positive-M2BP (M2BP) assay developed using a lectin-antibody sandwich immunoassay has shown promise as a new fibrotic marker in liver fibrosis and interstitial lung disease (ILD) to detect unique fibrosis-related glycoalteration.Objectives:The aim of this study is to evaluate the utility of serum Mac-2 binding protein glycosylation isomer (M2BPGi) levels in patients with rheumatic diseases (RD).Methods:We retrospectively measured serum M2BPGi levels in 68 patients with RD and 16 healthy controls (HC). There were no patients of cirrhosis and active hepatitis. Serum levels of M2BPGi were measured using HISCL M2BP glycosylation isomer Assay Kit. We examined the relationship between serum M2BPGi levels and clinical parameters in patients with RD.Results:In patients with RD, the median age was 62.0 years and 79.4% of them were female.Serum M2BPGi levels were significantly higher in patients with RD than in HC (median 0.98 cutoff index [COI], 0.32 COI, respectively; P < 0.00001). Patients with SLE tended to have higher serum M2BPGi levels than other rheumatic diseases.In patients with RD, a significant correlation was not found between serum M2BP levels and inflammation markers such as CRP or ferritin. However, serum M2BPGi levels were significantly correlated with B cell activation markers such as immunoglobulin free light chain and IgG (r = 0.588, 0.504) and T cell activation marker such as sIL-2R (r = 0.408).Conclusion:Most of the rheumatic diseases in this study were considered to be type I interferonopathy diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, Sjogren’s syndrome, inflammatory myositis, scleroderma and SLE.Serum M2BPGi was reported to have a significant correlation with SLE disease activity [SS Ahn et al. Lupus. 2018; 27: 771], and also to have a significant correlation with Gakectin-9, a novel biomarker for IFN signiture [Lucas L van den Hoogen et al. Ann Rheum Dis. 2018; 77: 1810].So, it was suggested that serum M2BPGi may be a novel biomarker that indirectly indicates how much IFN is activated in rheumatic diseases.Disclosure of Interests:None declared

Abstract
Introduction Panic disorder is among the most prevalent anxiety diseases. Although psychotherapy is recommended as first-line treatment for panic disorder, little is known about the relative efficacy of different types of psychotherapies. Objectives To evaluate the effectiveness and acceptability of different types of psychotherapies for adults suffering from panic disorder, with or without agoraphobia. Methods We are conducting a systematic network meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials examining panic disorder. A comprehensive search was performed to identify relevant studies. The primary efficacy outcome is anxiety symptoms at study endpoint. The primary acceptability outcome is all-cause trial discontinuation at endpoint. Pairwise and network meta-analysis will be conducted. We are considering any kind of psychotherapy delivered by any therapist, as long as they were trained to deliver the therapy, or as self-help. Results To date we have identified 126 panic disorder and agoraphobia trials. The publication time span ranges from 1968 to 2020. We are now extracting data to provide an overview of the included study characteristics. The statistical analysis will be conducted between December 2020 and January 2021, and its results presented for the first time at the forthcoming 2021 EPA congress. Conclusions 126 trials on psychotherapy for panic disorders in adults are available. Because of this huge body of knowledge, it is important that the results of these studies are summarized using network meta-analytic techniques. The findings of this study will guide future research as knowledge gaps will be easily identified. Moreover, policymakers will have the opportunity to use this summarized knowledge to inform evidence-based decision making. Disclosure No significant relationships.

Abstract
Background:For patients with connective tissue diseases (CTD), vasodilators are used to treat Raynaud’s phenomenon (RP), they are difficult to control only by medication. Although physicians recommend the use of a portable handwarmer or gloves to patients with CTD presenting with RP, sustained heat-retention effects cannot be obtained from them because the patients’ daily life-related activities prevent their continued use. Since the wrist mounted disposable heat pad maintains the degrees of freedom of the hands and fingers and can remain usable during the daily activities, we considered this heat pad as a useful and highly practical heating method for CTD patients presenting with RP.Objectives:To investigate the usability and changes in symptoms resulting from the use of the wrist mounted disposable heat pad in CTD patients presenting with RP.Methods:Subjects were 23 outpatients with CTD presenting with RP (23 females; mean age 62.6 years; mean duration following the onset of RP 10.3 years; 12 systemic sclerosis, 5 mixed connective tissue disease, 5 Sjögren’s syndrome, and 1 systemic lupus erythematosus) who had used the wrist mounted disposable heat pad (put the pad in a specifically designed holder and wrap it around wrist joint (max. temperature 42 degrees Celsius, heat-retention time 6 hours)). We investigated through interviews with them the use situations, usability, and changes in RP. During their using the heat pad, medication and daily life-related precautions against RP continued to be implemented as before.Results:Many patients had no knowledge of the heat pad (n=17, 73.9%). The most common wearing time of the heat pad was 5–6 hours (n=8, 34.8%). As for scenes of wearing the heat pad, patients who wore the pad when being out of the home accounted for the highest proportion (n=16, 69.6%), and as follows: at home (n=6, 26.1%), during kitchen work (n=3, 13.0%), and during housework (n=2, 8.7%). 17 patients (73.9%) replied that usability was “good”, and 18 (78.3%) replied that usability was “better” compared with conventional measures. Moreover, many patients (n=16, 69.6%) replied that RP and associated symptoms had become reduced or alleviated. No patients replied that RP and associated symptoms had become exacerbated or severer. In terms of advantages of using the heat pad, patients who replied that the site on which the pad was mounted was felt to be warm accounted for the highest proportion (n=8, 34.8%), and those who replied that sites other than where the pad was mounted (such as fingertips, hands, and arms) were also warmed accounted for virtually the same proportion (n=7, 30.4%). Over 60% of the patients (n=14, 60.9%) replied that symptoms associated with RP (skin color, cold sensation, and pain) had become reduced or disappeared. In terms of disadvantages of using the heat pad, patients who replied that it was bothersome to use the pad accounted for the highest proportion while other patients made replies referring to cost and bad appearance. No significant accident occurred and as many as 17 patients (73.9%) replied that they would like to continue to use the heat pad in the future.Conclusion:There have been few reports evaluating the usefulness of a heat pad for RP. The wrist mounted disposable heat pad was thought to be a heating method having the potential to achieve high levels of usability and practicality on CTD patients presenting with RP. Given that the heat pad alleviated RP or caused sites other than where the pad was mounted to be felt warm even though it did not directly heat the hands and fingers, the pad seemed to have usefulness attributed to the heating of the wrist. Although the heat pad seems to be an excellent method for addressing RP in patients’ daily lives, we hope that this heat pad will be evaluated on a larger number of patients with the addition of objective indices.References:[1]Koscheyev VS, et al.

Abstract
Background:IL-6 contributes significantly to the chronic inflammatory process of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Sarilumab (SRL), a human anti-human IL-6 receptor alpha monoclonal antibody that blocks the signaling originated by the IL-6/IL-6R complex like tocilizumab,is an effective treatment. However, predictors of the response to sarilumab are still required.Objectives:We aimed to combine IL-6, soluble IL-6R (sIL-6R) and gp130 (sgp130) levels to identify groups of sarilumab responses.Methods:This research is a retrospective study. a total of 32 RA patients with SRL therapy in our department from February 1 in 2018 to December 31 in 2019 were included. Serum and clinical data from 32 RA patients were collected before treatment and until the last visit. Follow-up period was up to one year after starting SRL treatment. Serum were tested for IL-6 (Human IL-6 Quantikine ELISA Kit, R&D systems), sIL-6R (Human soluble IL-6R alpha Quantikine ELISA Kit, R&D systems) and sgp130 (Human soluble gp130 Quantikine ELISA Kit, R&D systems), using specific ELISAs according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Hierarchical cluster analysis (JMP14.3.0) was used to establish the relationship between IL-6, sIL-6R and sgp130. We evaluated the efficacy of SRL treatment on the last visit using European League Against Rheumatism (EULAR) response criteria in the groups of patients. The other statistical analyses were performed with EZR 1.41, and p Values less than 0.05 were considered significant.Results:The median age of patients was 70.5 (IQR: 66.5-74.3) years and the median of disease duration was 7.3 (1.7-15.3) years. Nine (28.1%) patients were biologics and Jakinibs naive. the median follow-up periods were 24 (12-26) weeks. The baseline DAS28 was median 4.39 (3.77 - 5.43), and CDAI was 21.1 (11.7-29.5). When comparing responders and non-responders, there were no significant differences in any of the baseline parameters and cytokines. Four statistical significant clusters of RA patients (i.e., Group1, Group2, Group3 and tocilizumab use group before SRL) were defined by serum concentrations of IL-6, sIL-6R and spg130 at baseline. The levels of IL-6 expressed as median in Group1 patients were 25.6 (14.4–72.2) pg/ml, in Group2 5.9 (3.3–11.3) pg/ml, and in Group3 70.2 (45.4–86.1) pg/ml (p < 0.002, significant difference only between Group2 and Group3). The levels of sIL-6R expressed as median in Group1 patients were 38.7 (34.7-45.1) ng/ml, in Group2 35.1 (24.8-41.9) ng/ml, and in Group3 35.7 (34.2-39.8) ng/ml (p = 0.5477). The levels of sgp130 expressed as median in Group1 patients were 272.6 (263.0-277.2) ng/ml, in Group2 223.1 (221.0-228.0) ng/ml, and in Group3 204.6 (192.0-207.6) ng/ml (p < 0.00003, significant difference between the three groups respectively). There were no significant differences in any of the baseline clinical features and laboratory findings between the three groups. Out of the 8 patients in Group1 had a good or moderate response to SRL. Conversely, the percentage of patients with no response to SRL was higher in Group3 than in Group1 and Group2.Conclusion:RA patients could be easily stratified prior to the rapeutic intervention with sgp130 related to the IL-6 signal reguration. Group1 patients, who had the best response to SRL, had the highest level of sgp130.Table 1.Comparison of baseline serum IL-6, sIL-6R and sgp130 of each groups of patientsTCZ use before SRLGroup 1Group 2Group 3P valuen=3N=9N=8N=9IL-6,pg/mL69.8,77.6,592.6Median[IQR]25.6[14.4-72.2]5.9[3.3-11.3]70.2[45.4-86.1]<0.002csIL-6R,ng/mL390.5,413.2,481.7Median[IQR]38.7[34.7-45.1]35.1[24.8-41.9]35.7[34.2-39.8]0.547sgp130,ng/mL205.6,219.2,239.8Median[IQR]273[263-277]223[221-228]205[192-208]<0.001abc*a, b and c mean that statically significant difference between subgroups as a: group1 vs. 2, b: group 1 vs. 3, c: group 2 vs. 3.Disclosure of Interests:Takahiro Yoshikawa: None declared, Tetsuya Furukawa: None declared, Masao Tamura: None declared, Teppei Hashimoto: None declared, Mai Morimoto: None declared, Naoto Azuma: None declared, Kiyoshi Matsui Grant/research support from: Asahi Kasei Pharma, Astellas Pharma (research grants), Speakers bureau: Bristol-Myers Squibb (lecture fees)

Abstract
The gyromagnetic factor of the low-lying E=251.96(9) keV isomeric state of the nucleus ^{99}Zr was measured using the time-dependent perturbed angular distribution technique. This level is assigned a spin and parity of J^{π}=7/2^{+}, with a half-life of T_{1/2}=336(5) ns. The isomer was produced and spin aligned via the abrasion-fission of a ^{238}U primary beam at RIKEN RIBF. A magnetic moment |μ|=2.31(14)μ_{N} was deduced showing that this isomer is not single particle in nature. A comparison of the experimental values with interacting boson-fermion model IBFM-1 results shows that this state is strongly mixed with a main νd_{5/2} composition. Furthermore, it was found that monopole single-particle evolution changes significantly with the appearance of collective modes, likely due to type-II shell evolution.

Abstract
The radiative cooling of highly excited carbon cluster cations of sizes N = 8, 10, 13-16 has been studied in an electrostatic storage ring. The cooling rate constants vary with cluster size from a maximum at N = 8 of 2.6 × 104 s-1 and a minimum at N = 13 of 4.4 × 103 s-1. The high rates indicate that photon emission takes place from electronically excited ions, providing a strong stabilizing cooling of the molecules.

Abstract
A two-dimensional scanning probe instrument has been developed to survey spatial plasma characteristics in our electrodeless plasma acceleration schemes. In particular, diagnostics of plasma parameters, e.g., plasma density, temperature, velocity, and excited magnetic field, are essential for elucidating physical phenomena since we have been concentrating on next generation plasma propulsion methods, e.g., Rotating Magnetic Field plasma acceleration method, by characterizing the plasma performance. Moreover, in order to estimate the thrust performance in our experimental scheme, we have also mounted a thrust stand, which has a target type, on this movable instrument, and scanned the axial profile of the thrust performance in the presence of the external magnetic field generated by using permanent magnets, so as to investigate the plasma captured in a stand area, considering the divergent field lines in the downstream region of a generation antenna. In this paper, we will introduce the novel measurement instrument and describe how to measure these parameters.

Abstract
Label-free visualization of nerves and nervous plexuses will improve the preservation of neurological functions in nerve-sparing robot-assisted surgery. We have developed a coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering (CARS) rigid endoscope to distinguish nerves from other tissues during surgery. The developed endoscope, which has a tube with a diameter of 12 mm and a length of 270 mm, achieved 0.91% image distortion and 8.6% non-uniformity of CARS intensity in the whole field of view (650 μm diameter). We demonstrated CARS imaging of a rat sciatic nerve and visualization of the fine structure of nerve fibers.

Abstract
Ultrasonographic (US) angiography was performed by sonographic examination with injection of carbon dioxide microbubbles through a catheter following conventional angiography in 41 patients with various gallbladder diseases. Three enhancement patterns were found; strong enhancement in the lesion from the periphery to the center was noted in patients with adenocarcinoma and benign polyp (type I), irregular partial enhancement at the margins of the lesion in those with adenosquamous carcinoma (type II), and internal regular enhancement in those with chronic cholecystitis, xanthogranulomatous cholecystitis and adenomyomatosis (type III). Pseudopolypoid lesion such as gallbladder debris showed no enhancement. US angiography may be useful in the differential diagnosis of gallbladder diseases, especially to differentiate the wall thickening type of gallbladder carcinoma from chronic cholecystitis or adenomyomatosis, and the pseudopolypoid lesion and fundal type of adenomyomatosis from benign polyp or polypoid-type carcinoma.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although the serum adiponectin level is inversely correlated to body mass index and closely associated with obesity and related diseases, neither the impact of weight loss on the adiponectin level nor other factors that might influence the adiponectin level during weight loss intervention are well documented. OBJECTIVE The objective of the study is to assess the change in the serum adiponectin level during weight loss intervention and to determine if sleep parameters affect the serum adiponectin level. METHODS Ninety women with overweight or obesity aged 25 to 65 years completed a 7-month cognitive behavioural therapy based weight loss intervention that included dieting, exercise and stress management. Serum adiponectin level, body fat percent, symptoms of depression and anxiety and objective sleep parameters, assessed by actigraphy, were measured at baseline and at the end of the intervention. RESULTS The serum adiponectin level was significantly increased after the weight loss intervention (P < 0.001). In a multiple regression analysis, the change of the adiponectin level was positively associated with the magnitude of body fat loss (β = -0.317, P < 0.001) and an increase of sleep minutes (β = 0.210, P = 0.043). CONCLUSION An increase in objective sleep duration was related to a significantly increased serum adiponectin level independently of the change of body fat during the weight loss intervention.

Abstract
This paper presents a new correlative bioimaging technique using Y2O3:Tm, Yb and Y2O3:Er, Yb nanophosphors (NPs) as imaging probes that emit luminescence excited by both near-infrared (NIR) light and an electron beam. Under 980 nm NIR light irradiation, the Y2O3:Tm, Yb and Y2O3:Er, Yb NPs emitted NIR luminescence (NIRL) around 810 nm and 1530 nm, respectively, and cathodoluminescence at 455 nm and 660 nm under excitation of accelerated electrons, respectively. Multimodalities of the NPs were confirmed in correlative NIRL/CL imaging and their locations were visualized at the same observation area in both NIRL and CL images. Using CL microscopy, the NPs were visualized at the single-particle level and with multicolour. Multiscale NIRL/CL bioimaging was demonstrated through in vivo and in vitro NIRL deep-tissue observations, cellular NIRL imaging, and high-spatial resolution CL imaging of the NPs inside cells. The location of a cell sheet transplanted onto the back muscle fascia of a hairy rat was visualized through NIRL imaging of the Y2O3:Er, Yb NPs. Accurate positions of cells through the thickness (1.5 mm) of a tissue phantom were detected by NIRL from the Y2O3:Tm, Yb NPs. Further, locations of the two types of NPs inside cells were observed using CL microscopy.

Abstract
Quantum spin liquids, which are spin versions of quantum matter, have been sought after in systems with geometrical frustration. We show that disorder drives a classical magnet into a quantum spin liquid through conducting NMR experiments on an organic Mott insulator, κ-(ET)_{2}Cu[N(CN)_{2}]Cl. Antiferromagnetic ordering in the pristine crystal, when irradiated by x rays, disappears. Spin freezing, spin gap, and critical slowing down are not observed, but gapless spin excitations emerge, suggesting a novel role of disorder that brings forth a quantum spin liquid from a classical ordered state.

Abstract
For the purpose of discriminating between cases of nephrotic syndrome with and without corticosteroid effect, a linear discriminant function was applied in attempt to predict the effect of corticosteroid by the use of a computer. The parameters used were 15-min values of the PSP test, urinary protein, serum cholesterol, renal biospy findings, the number of red cells in the urinary sediment and immunoglobulin clearance ratio. The rate of correct prediction using the function with immunoglobulin clearance ratio was 87.0 %.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Real-time markerless tumour tracking using radiographic fluoroscopic imaging is one of the better solutions to improving respiratory-gated radiotherapy. However, particle beams cause secondary particles from patients, which could affect radiographs. Here, we evaluated the quality of radiographs during carbon ion pencil beam scanning (CPBS) irradiation for respiratory gating. METHODS A water phantom and chest phantom were used. The phantoms were irradiated with CPBS at 290 MeV n(-1) from orthogonal directions. Dose rates were 3.4 × 10(8), 1.14 × 10(8) and 3.79 × 10(7) particles per second. A dynamic flat panel detector (DFPD) was installed on the upstream (DFPD1) or downstream (DFPD2) side of the vertical irradiation port. DFPD images were acquired during CPBS at 15.00, 7.50 and 3.75 frames per second (fps). Charge on the DFPD was cleaned using fast readout technique every 30 fps. DFPD images were acquired during CPBS with radiographic exposure, and results with and without fast readout technique were compared. RESULTS Secondary particles were visualized as spots or streak-like shapes. Capture of secondary particles from the horizontal beam direction was lower with fast readout technique than without it. With regard to beam irradiation direction dependency, CPBS from the horizontal direction resulted in a greater magnitude of secondary particles reaching DFPD2 than reaching DFPD1. When CPBS was delivered from the vertical direction, however, the magnitude of secondary particles on both DFPDs was very similar. CONCLUSION Fast readout technique minimized the effect of secondary particles on DFPD images during CPBS. ADVANCES IN KNOWLEDGE This technique may be useful for markerless tumour tracking for respiratory gating.

Abstract
Background: Sleep has been identified as having an influence on the success of weight-loss interventions; however, knowledge of the mechanisms and the extent to which sleep disturbances affect the magnitude of weight reduction is inconclusive. Objective: To determine if sleep duration and quality can predict the magnitude of weight reduction in a weight-loss intervention program for overweight and obese women. Methods: Ninety overweight and obese women aged 25–65 years completed the 7-month weight-loss phase of our weight-loss intervention. Sleep duration and quality were evaluated before the intervention by the Pittsburg Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), a self-report questionnaire, and by actigraphy. Serum levels of ghrelin, leptin, cortisol and insulin also were measured at baseline. Insulin resistance was measured by the homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR). Results: The mean reduction rate of body mass index (BMI) after the intervention was 13.6%. Multiple linear regression revealed that the number of wake episodes (WEs) per night had a significant relationship with the reduction of BMI even after adjusting for other clinical variables (β=−0.341, P=0.001). The participants with five or more WEs per night (high-WE group) had a significantly lower reduction in BMI compared with those with fewer than five (normal-WE group), after adjusting for confounding variables. In contrast, the PSQI-assessed parameters, reflecting the subjective assessments of sleep quality and duration, failed to detect an association with the reduction in BMI. Baseline HOMA-IR was significantly higher in the high-WE group than in the normal-WE group after adjusting for confounding variables. Conclusions: Higher sleep fragmentation, as manifested by the increased number of WEs, predicts a lower magnitude of weight reduction in persons participating in weight-loss programs.

Abstract
In ion beam radiotherapy, secondary neutrons contribute to an undesired dose outside the target volume, and consequently the increase of secondary cancer risk is a growing concern. In this study, neutron ambient dose equivalents in carbon-ion radiotherapy (CIRT) with an active beam delivery system were measured with a rem meter, WENDI-II, at National Institute of Radiological Sciences. When the same irradiation target was assumed, the measured neutron dose with an active beam was at most ∼15 % of that with a passive beam. This percentage became smaller as larger distances from the iso-centre. Also, when using an active beam delivery system, the neutron dose per treatment dose in CIRT was comparable with that in proton radiotherapy. Finally, it was experimentally demonstrated that the use of an active scanned beam in CIRT can greatly reduce the secondary neutron dose.

Abstract
We report conclusive evidence of an efficient cooling mechanism via the electronic radiative transitions of hot small molecular anions isolated in vacuum. We stored C6(-) and C6H(-) in an ion storage ring and observed laser-induced electron detachment with delays up to several milliseconds. The terminal hydrogen atom caused a drastic change in the decay profiles. The decay of photoexcited C6H(-) is slow and nonexponential, which can be explained by depletion cooling, whereas that for C6(-) occurs extremely fast, on a time scale below 0.1 ms and can only be explained by electronic radiative cooling via low-lying electronic excited states.
