Abstract
BACKGROUND Atezolizumab, one of the immune checkpoint inhibitors, has been approved as an adjuvant treatment following resection and platinum-based chemotherapy in patients with stage II-IIIA non-small cell lung cancer with 1% or more programmed death ligand-1 (PD-L1) expression. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved SP263 as a companion diagnostic assay for adjuvant treatment with atezolizumab; however, in clinical practice, the 22C3 assay is most commonly used for advanced non-small cell lung cancer. Therefore, our study aimed to compare two PD-L1 assays, SP263 and 22C3, to evaluate whether 22C3 could replace SP263 when deciding whether to administer adjuvant atezolizumab. METHODS We retrospectively and prospectively analyzed 98 patients who underwent surgical resection at Kanagawa Cancer Center (Japan). An immunohistochemistry assay was performed for all the cases with both SP263 and 22C3. We statistically analyzed the concordance of PD-L1 expression between SP263 and 22C3 assays. RESULTS The concordance between the two assays using Cohen's kappa was κ = 0.670 (95% CI: 0.522-0.818) at the 1% cutoff and κ = 0.796 (95% CI: 0.639-0.954) at the 50% cutoff. The Spearman correlation coefficient of 0.874 (p < 0.01) indicated high concordance. PD-L1 expression with 22C3 resulted slightly higher than that with SP263. CONCLUSIONS This study showed a high concordance of PD-L1 expression with the SP263 and 22C3 assays. Further studies examining the therapeutic effects of adjuvant atezolizumab are required.

Abstract
Partial anomalous pulmonary venous return (PAPVR) is a rare congenital malformation where the pulmonary vein partially refluxes into the venous system. Here, we present the first robotic-assisted right S3 segmentectomy in a 70-year-old male with early-stage lung cancer and PAPVR in the right upper pulmonary vein. The patient, with suspected primary lung cancer (11 mm diameter, pure solid appearance in right S3 segment), exhibited clinical stage T1bN0M0 stage IA2. Preoperative computed tomography revealed severe lung emphysema, and right V1-3 returned directly to the superior vena cava. However, no signs of right-sided heart failure were observed, and echocardiogram was normal with a pulmonary-to-systemic blood flow ratio of 1.4. Successful robot-assisted right S3 segmentectomy with hilar nodal dissection was performed, and the patient was discharged on the sixth postoperative day without complications. One year postoperatively, there has been no recurrence of lung cancer or respiratory/right-sided heart failure symptoms.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to determine the optimal extent of lymph node dissection required in patients with small (≤3 cm) radiologically ground-glass opacity-dominant, peripheral, non-small cell lung cancer tumors. METHODS The study analyzed the clinicopathologic findings and surgical outcomes of 988 patients with radiologic, ground-glass opacity-dominant non-small cell lung cancer without lymph node involvement who underwent complete resection of the primary tumor between 2010 and 2020. Patients were followed up for 54.5 months (median). Kaplan-Meier curves and the log-rank test were used in statistical analyses of the prognosis. RESULTS Median age, whole tumor size, solid tumor size, and maximum standardized uptake values were 68 years, 1.7 cm, 0.4 cm, and 0.9, respectively. Sixty percent of the cohort was female (n = 590). Wedge resection, segmentectomy, and lobectomy were performed in 206, 372, and 410 patients, respectively. A total of 982 of 988 (99%) tumors were adenocarcinomas. One patient had hilar lymph node involvement; however, no mediastinal lymph node metastasis or hilar or mediastinal lymph node recurrence was detected. The 5-year overall survival rate was 96.5% (95% CI, 94.8%-97.7%). Excellent survival outcomes were achieved regardless of procedure (wedge resection, 94.7% [95% CI, 89.1%-97.5%]; segmentectomy, 96.9% [95% CI, 93.7%-98.5%]; and lobectomy, 97.1% [95% CI, 94.4%-98.5%]). CONCLUSIONS Omitting lymph node dissection may be acceptable with curative intent for small tumors with radiologic ground-glass opacity dominance. Appropriate surgical procedures such as wedge resection, segmentectomy, or lobectomy can provide satisfactory outcomes in patients with indolent tumors if surgical margins are secured.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The terminology for lung cancer diagnosis in small biopsies was adopted in the 2015 World Health Organization classification. If non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) has no clear adenocarcinoma (AD) or squamous cell carcinoma morphology, the tumor is further classified based on mucin or immunohistochemical staining as NSCLC favor AD (NFAD), NSCLC favor squamous cell carcinoma, or NSCLC not otherwise specified. Since this new term was defined, the difference between AD and NFAD has not yet been fully explored. This study aimed to examine the differences in clinical background, gene alteration frequency, and programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1) expression. METHODS We included patients diagnosed with AD or NFAD with small samples, and who underwent testing with the Oncomine Dx target test between August 2019 and April 2023 in Kanagawa Cancer Center. RESULTS This study comprised 268 patients. A total of 96 patients underwent surgery after AD or NFAD diagnosis. The clinical stage was more advanced and pathological N0 was lower in NFAD than in AD. The pathology of the surgical specimens revealed that solid predominant AD was significantly more common in NFAD than in AD (p < 0.001). In both AD and NFAD, EGFR mutation was the most frequent gene alteration, followed by KRAS mutation. The frequency of EGFR mutations was significantly higher in AD than in NFAD. PD-L1 expression was significantly higher in NFAD than in AD (p < 0.001). CONCLUSION This study shows a clear difference between AD and NFAD in terms of cancer progression, pathological features of the main tumor, genetic characteristics, and PD-L1 expression.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Lobectomy is a standard surgical procedure for peripherally located early-stage non-small cell lung cancers (NSCLCs) measuring 2 to 4 cm. However, it is unclear whether sublobar resections, such as wedge resection and segmentectomy, are effective in treating tumors with driver mutations in the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR). METHODS We analyzed the clinicopathologic findings and surgical outcomes of 1395 patients with radiologically solid-dominant NSCLC measuring 2 to 4 cm, without clinical lymph node involvement, who underwent complete resection between 2010 and 2020. The patients, who underwent sublobar resections (n = 231) or lobectomy (n = 1164), were categorized by their EGFR mutation status and the surgical procedures performed. The follow-up was conducted for a median of 45.3 months. RESULTS The 5-year overall survival (OS) rates after sublobar resections (n = 39) were comparable to those after lobectomy (n = 359) in patients with EGFR mutation-positive tumors (80.5% [95% CI, 51.3%-93.2%] vs 88.8% [95% CI, 84.1%-92.1%], respectively; P = .16). Multivariable Cox regression analysis of OS revealed that the surgical procedure was an independent prognostic predictor in the entire cohort (hazard ratio, 0.6; 95% CI, 0.4-1.0; P = .028), but it was not an independent prognostic predictor in patients with EGFR-mutated tumors (hazard ratio, 0.6; 95% CI, 0.2-1.7; P = .32). CONCLUSIONS Sublobar resection with a secure surgical margin could be a viable option for appropriately selected patients with peripheral early-stage NSCLC tumors measuring 2 to 4 cm and harboring EGFR mutations, because it provides comparable OS to that of lobectomy.

Abstract
Background Impact of RNA-binding motif protein 10 (RBM10) and programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) on the postoperative prognosis of patients with epidermal growth factor receptor gene mutation (EGFR-Mt) lung adenocarcinoma with pathological lymph node metastasis is still unclear. Methods Patients who underwent curative surgery for pN1-N2 EGFR-Mt lung adenocarcinoma (n=129) harboring the EGFR exon 19 deletion mutation (Ex19) (n=66) or EGFR exon 21 L858R mutation (Ex21) (n=63) between January 2010 and December 2020 were included in this retrospective study. The prognoses of patients with low/high cytoplasmic RBM10 expression and PD-L1 negativity/positivity based on immunohistochemistry (IHC) of resected specimens were compared using the log-rank test. The effects of RBM10 and PD-L1 expression on overall survival (OS) were examined via multivariable analysis using the Cox proportional hazards regression model. The effects of RBM10 and PD-L1 expression on progression-free survival (PFS) of EGFR-tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) therapy among patients with recurrent pN1-N2 EGFR-Mt lung adenocarcinoma (n=67) were examined using log-rank tests. Results The RBM10 low expression group showed significantly better 5-year OS than the RBM10 high expression group (89.4% vs. 71.5%, P=0.020), and the PD-L1 negative group tended to have longer 5-year OS than the PD-L1 positive group (86.4% vs. 68.4%, P=0.050). Multivariable analysis showed that high RBM10 expression [hazard ratio (HR), 3.12; 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.19-8.17; P=0.021] and PD-L1 positivity (HR, 3.80; 95% CI: 1.64-8.84; P=0.002) were independent poor prognostic factors for OS. PFS of patients with relapse and first-line EGFR-TKI treatment was significantly better in the PD-L1-negative group than in the PD-L1-positive group (34.5 vs. 12.1 months, P=0.045). PFS of patients with Ex21 relapse and first-line EGFR-TKI treatment was significantly better in the RBM10 low expression group than in the RBM10 high expression group (25.5 vs. 13.0 months, P=0.025). Conclusions High RBM10 expression and PD-L1 positivity are poor prognostic factors for OS in patients with pN1-N2 EGFR-Mt lung adenocarcinoma after curative surgery. In patients with recurrent pN1-N2 EGFR-Mt lung adenocarcinoma, PD-L1 and RBM10 expression may influence response to EGFR-TKIs.

Abstract
Background Acquired intrathoracic nonmalignant tracheoesophageal fistulas (TEFs) are rare and challenging surgical problems. They can constitute a life-threatening condition due to severe pulmonary complications and poor nutrition. Surgical treatment is effective for most patients undergoing operative repair. However, in recent studies, the difficult-to-ignore early complications of surgical treatment can be as high as 62.5%. Among them, esophageal stricture occurring in 42-54% of patients, anastomosis leakage occurs at a rate of 22.7-26%, and the mortality rate can be as high as 29.4%. Here, we introduce our innovative experience repairing acquired TEFs with a thoracoacromial artery perforator flap, in which provides a clear surgical field of view, reliable reconstruction, and no serious complications during the perioperative period and no mortality or complications were observed within 180 days after the operation. Case Description Surgical repair with a thoracoacromial artery perforator flap through a midsternal incision approach was performed in 3 patients. During the procedure, a midsternal incision was made. After the thymus and anterior mediastinal fat were resected, and the left innominate vein was transected, the trachea and esophagus were mobilized. The trachea was incised and pulled to the cranial and caudal sides. Then, the thoracoacromial artery perforator flap was harvested and transferred into the superior mediastinum for esophageal reconstruction. Subsequently, the trachea was anastomosed end to end after debridement, and the left innominate vein was either anastomosed or not. Two patients developed esophageal anastomotic leakage postoperatively and healed well after nonsurgical treatment. No mortality or other complications were observed at 180 days after the operation. Conclusions Repair of acquired TEFs using a thoracoacromial artery perforator flap through a midsternal incision approach is an effective, safe surgical treatment.

Abstract
Objectives We aimed to clarify the differences in prognosis between wedge resection and segmentectomy performed for cN0 non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) measuring ≤ 2 cm, with consolidation tumor ratio (CTR) > 0.25. Methods This multicenter study included 570 patients with cN0 NSCLC (tumor size ≤ 2 cm, CTR > 0.25) who underwent wedge resection (n = 244) and segmentectomy (n = 326) between January 2010 and December 2018. After propensity score matching (PSM, 1:1 method), 182 patients were matched for clinical characteristics (age, sex, laterality, smoking index, tumor size, CTR, carcinoembryonic antigen value, positron-emission tomography-documented maximum standardized uptake value, clinical stage, and tumor disappearance rate) and intergroup comparison of disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS). Using Gray's test, an intergroup comparison of the cumulative incidence of lung cancer-specific mortality was performed. Results After PSM, similar DFS (5-year DFS, 79.9% vs. 87.1%, p = 0.103) and OS (5-year OS, 88.7% vs. 88.9%, p = 0.719) rates were observed in the wedge resection and segmentectomy groups. We observed no significant intergroup differences in lung cancer-specific mortality (5-year cumulative incidence: 4.6% vs. 3.5%; p = 0.235). Subgroup analysis revealed no specific subgroup demonstrating improved DFS or OS after undergoing wedge resection or segmentectomy. Conclusion DFS, OS, and lung cancer-specific mortality were comparable between wedge resection and segmentectomy of cN0 NSCLC-tumor size ≤ 2 cm and CTR > 0.25. Large-scale prospective clinical trials are warranted to compare the prognoses of wedge resection and segmentectomy for these tumors.

Abstract
Background: Acute kidney injury (AKI), with an increase in serum creatinine, is a common adverse drug event. Although various clinical studies have investigated whether a combination of two nephrotoxic drugs has an increased risk of AKI using traditional statistical models such as multivariable logistic regression (MLR), the evaluation metrics have not been evaluated despite the fact that traditional statistical models may over-fit the data. The aim of the present study was to detect drug-drug interactions with an increased risk of AKI by interpreting machine-learning models to avoid overfitting. Methods: We developed six machine-learning models trained using electronic medical records: MLR, logistic least absolute shrinkage and selection operator regression (LLR), random forest, extreme gradient boosting (XGB) tree, and two support vector machine models (kernel = linear function and radial basis function). In order to detect drug-drug interactions, the XGB and LLR models that showed good predictive performance were interpreted by SHapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP) and relative excess risk due to interaction (RERI), respectively. Results: Among approximately 2.5 million patients, 65,667 patients were extracted from the electronic medical records, and assigned to case (N = 5,319) and control (N = 60,348) groups. In the XGB model, a combination of loop diuretic and histamine H2 blocker [mean (|SHAP|) = 0.011] was identified as a relatively important risk factor for AKI. The combination of loop diuretic and H2 blocker showed a significant synergistic interaction on an additive scale (RERI 1.289, 95% confidence interval 0.226-5.591) also in the LLR model. Conclusion: The present population-based case-control study using interpretable machine-learning models suggested that although the relative importance of the individual and combined effects of loop diuretics and H2 blockers is lower than that of well-known risk factors such as older age and sex, concomitant use of a loop diuretic and histamine H2 blocker is associated with increased risk of AKI.

Abstract
Objectives To simultaneously estimate how the risk of incident dementia nonlinearly varies with the administration period and cumulative dose of benzodiazepines, the duration of disorders with an indication for benzodiazepines, and other potential confounders, with the goal of settling the controversy over the role of benzodiazepines in the development of dementia. Methods The classical hazard model was extended using the techniques of multiple-kernel learning. Regularised maximum-likelihood estimation, including determination of hyperparameter values with 10-fold cross-validation, bootstrap goodness-of-fit test, and bootstrap estimation of confidence intervals, was applied to cohorts retrospectively extracted from electronic medical records of our university hospitals between 1 November 2004 and 31 July 2020. The analysis was mainly focused on 8160 patients aged 40 or older with new onset of insomnia, affective disorders, or anxiety disorders, who were followed up for 4.10 ± 3.47 years. Results Besides previously reported risk associations, we detected significant nonlinear risk variations over 2-4 years attributable to the duration of insomnia and anxiety disorders, and to the administration period of short-acting benzodiazepines. After nonlinear adjustment for potential confounders, we observed no significant risk associations with long-term use of benzodiazepines. Conclusions The pattern of the detected nonlinear risk variations suggested reverse causation and confounding. Their putative bias effects over 2-4 years suggested similar biases in previously reported results. These results, together with the lack of significant risk associations with long-term use of benzodiazepines, suggested the need to reconsider previous results and methods for future analysis.

Abstract
PURPOSE When performing segmentectomy, we aim to keep adequate distance from the tumor using three-dimensional( 3D) images of the pulmonary artery perfusion area and the indocyanine green( ICG) injection method. The effectiveness and improvement of this method were examined. PATIENTS AND METHOD We retrospectively investigated 50 consecutive patients who underwent segmentectomy with this method. In simulation, we measured the predicted margin distance( PMD) on a 3D image. Then, we measured the actual margin distance (AMD) on resected specimens fixed in formalin. We compared these two distances and evaluated factors influencing shorter AMD. RESULTS The median AMD was 1.7 cm, and there was no positive margin case. The median ratio of AMD/PMD was 0.73. In multivariate analysis, shorter PMD and no resection of subsegment bronchi next to the tumor were significant factors associated with shorter AMD( p<0.001, p=0.014). CONCLUSIONS Our method was effective for segmentectomy. For adequate AMD, a longer PMD in simulation and subsegmental bronchi resection next to the tumor should be considered.

Abstract
Olanzapine is an atypical antipsychotic drug that is clinically applied in patients with schizophrenia. It increases the risk of dyslipidemia, a disturbance of lipid metabolic homeostasis, usually characterized by increased low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol and triglycerides, and accompanied by decreased high-density lipoprotein (HDL) in the serum. In this study, analyzing the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System, JMDC insurance claims, and electronic medical records from Nihon University School of Medicine revealed that a co-treated drug, vitamin D, can reduce the incidence of olanzapine-induced dyslipidemia. In the following experimental validations of this hypothesis, short-term oral olanzapine administration in mice caused a simultaneous increase and decrease in the levels of LDL and HDL cholesterol, respectively, while the triglyceride level remained unaffected. Cholecalciferol supplementation attenuated these deteriorations in blood lipid profiles. RNA-seq analysis was conducted on three cell types that are closely related to maintaining cholesterol metabolic balance (hepatocytes, adipocytes, and C2C12) to verify the direct effects of olanzapine and the functional metabolites of cholecalciferol (calcifediol and calcitriol). Consequently, the expression of cholesterol-biosynthesis-related genes was reduced in calcifediol- and calcitriol-treated C2C12 cells, which was likely to be mediated by activating the vitamin D receptor that subsequently inhibited the cholesterol biosynthesis process via insulin-induced gene 2 regulation. This clinical big-data-based drug repurposing approach is effective in finding a novel treatment with high clinical predictability and a well-defined molecular mechanism.

Abstract
Tendinopathy, a degenerative disease, is characterized by pain, loss of tendon strength, or rupture. Previous studies have identified multiple risk factors for tendinopathy, including aging and fluoroquinolone use; however, its therapeutic target remains unclear. We analyzed self-reported adverse events and the US commercial claims data and found that the short-term use of dexamethasone prevented both fluoroquinolone-induced and age-related tendinopathy. Rat tendons treated systemically with fluoroquinolone exhibited mechanical fragility, histological change, and DNA damage; co-treatment with dexamethasone attenuated these effects and increased the expression of the antioxidant enzyme glutathione peroxidase 3 (GPX3), as revealed via RNA-sequencing. The primary role of GPX3 was validated in primary cultured rat tenocytes treated with fluoroquinolone or H2O2, which accelerates senescence, in combination with dexamethasone or viral overexpression of GPX3. These results suggest that dexamethasone prevents tendinopathy by suppressing oxidative stress through the upregulation of GPX3. This steroid-free approach for upregulation or activation of GPX3 can serve as a novel therapeutic strategy for tendinopathy.

Abstract
Drug-induced liver injury (DILI) is a common adverse drug reaction, with abnormal elevation of serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT). Several clinical studies have investigated whether a combination of two drugs alters the reporting frequency of DILI using traditional statistical methods such as multiple logistic regression (MLR), but this model may over-fit the data. This study aimed to detect a synergistic interaction between two drugs on the risk of abnormal elevation of serum ALT in Japanese adult patients using three machine-learning algorithms: MLR, logistic least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression, and extreme gradient boosting (XGBoost) algorithms. A total of 58,413 patients were extracted from Nihon University School of Medicine's Clinical Data Warehouse and assigned to case (N = 4,152) and control (N = 54,261) groups. The MLR model over-fitted a training set. In the logistic LASSO regression model, three combinations showed relative excess risk due to interaction (RERI) for abnormal elevation of serum ALT: diclofenac and famotidine (RERI 2.427, 95% bootstrap confidence interval 1.226-11.003), acetaminophen and ambroxol (0.540, 0.087-4.625), and aspirin and cilostazol (0.188, 0.135-3.010). Moreover, diclofenac (adjusted odds ratio 1.319, 95% bootstrap confidence interval 1.189-2.821) and famotidine (1.643, 1.332-2.071) individually affected the risk of abnormal elevation of serum ALT. In the XGBoost model, not only the individual effects of diclofenac (feature importance 0.004) and famotidine (0.016), but also the interaction term (0.004) was included in important predictors. Although further study is needed, the combination of diclofenac and famotidine appears to increase the risk of abnormal elevation of serum ALT in the real world.

Abstract
Antidepressants are known to cause hyponatremia, but conflicting evidence exists regarding specific antidepressants. To identify antidepressants less likely to cause hyponatremia, we conducted a triangulation study integrating retrospective cohort, disproportionality, and pharmacodynamic studies. In the retrospective cohort study of patients (≥ 60 years) in Nihon University School of Medicine's Clinical Data Warehouse (2004-2020), a significant decrease in serum sodium levels was observed within 30 days after initiation of a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI; mean change -1.00 ± 0.23 mmol/L, P < 0.001) or serotonin-noradrenaline reuptake inhibitor (SNRI; -1.01 ± 0.31 mmol/L, P = 0.0013), whereas no decrease was found for a noradrenergic and specific serotonergic antidepressant (mirtazapine; +0.55 ± 0.47 mmol/L, P = 0.24). Within-class comparison revealed no decrease in serum sodium levels for fluvoxamine (+0.74 ± 0.75 mmol/L, P = 0.33) among SSRIs and milnacipran (+0.08 ± 0.87 mmol/L, P = 0.93) among SNRIs. In the disproportionality analysis of patients (≥ 60 years) in the Japanese Adverse Drug Event Report database (2004-2020), a significant increase in hyponatremia reports was observed for SSRIs (reporting odds ratio 4.41, 95% confidence interval 3.58-5.45) and SNRIs (5.66, 4.38-7.31), but not for mirtazapine (1.08, 0.74-1.58), fluvoxamine (1.48, 0.94-2.32), and milnacipran (0.85, 0.45-1.62). Finally, pharmacoepidemiological-pharmacodynamic analysis revealed a significant correlation between the decrease in serum sodium levels and binding affinity for serotonin transporter (SERT; r = -0.84, P = 0.02), suggesting that lower binding affinity of mirtazapine, fluvoxamine, and milnacipran against SERT is responsible for the above difference. Although further research is needed, our data suggest that mirtazapine, fluvoxamine, and milnacipran are less likely to cause hyponatremia.

Abstract
Studying spin-momentum correlations in hadronic collisions offers a glimpse into a three-dimensional picture of proton structure. The transverse single-spin asymmetry for midrapidity isolated direct photons in p^{↑}+p collisions at sqrt[s]=200 GeV is measured with the PHENIX detector at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC). Because direct photons in particular are produced from the hard scattering and do not interact via the strong force, this measurement is a clean probe of initial-state spin-momentum correlations inside the proton and is in particular sensitive to gluon interference effects within the proton. This is the first time direct photons have been used as a probe of spin-momentum correlations at RHIC. The uncertainties on the results are a 50-fold improvement with respect to those of the one prior measurement for the same observable, from the Fermilab E704 experiment. These results constrain gluon spin-momentum correlations in transversely polarized protons.

Abstract
Interstitial lung diseases (ILDs) are a group of respiratory disorders characterized by chronic inflammation and fibrosis of the pulmonary interstitial tissues. Although the etiology of ILD remains unclear, some drug treatments are among the primary causes of ILD. In the present study, we analyzed the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System and JMDC Inc. insurance claims to identify a coexisting drug that reduced the incidence of ILD associated with the use of an anti-arrhythmic agent, amiodarone, and found that the thrombin inhibitor dabigatran prevented the amiodarone-induced ILD in both clinical datasets. In an experimental validation of the hypothesis, long-term oral treatment of mice with amiodarone caused a gradual decrease in body weight caused by respiratory insufficiency. In the lungs of amiodarone-treated mice, infiltration of macrophages was observed in parallel with a delayed upregulation of the platelet-derived growth factor receptor α gene. In contrast, co-treatment with dabigatran significantly attenuated these amiodarone-induced changes indicative of ILD. These results suggest that dabigatran is effective in preventing drug-induced ILD. This combinatorial approach of drug repurposing based on clinical big data will pave the way for finding a new treatment with high clinical predictability and a well-defined molecular mechanism.

Abstract
Drug-induced liver injury (DILI) is a common adverse drug event. Spontaneous reporting systems such as the Japanese Adverse Event Report Database (JADER) have been used to evaluate the association between drugs and adverse drug events. However, the association of drugs with adverse drug events may be overestimated due to reporting biases. Therefore, it is important to objectively evaluate the association using liver function test values. The aim of the present study was to predict potential hepatotoxic drugs using real-world data including electronic medical records and the JADER database. A total of 70009 (2779 with DILI and 67230 without DILI) and 438515 (10235 with DILI and 428280 without DILI) Japanese adult patients were extracted from electronic medical records and the JADER database, respectively. Drugs with ≥100 DILI patients in both of the two databases were regarded as suspected drugs for DILI. We used multivariate logistic regression to evaluate the association between the suspected drugs and increased risk of DILI. Among the suspected drugs, broad-spectrum antibiotics such as meropenem, tazobactam/piperacillin and ceftriaxone were significantly associated with an increased risk of DILI, and meropenem had a greater risk of DILI in both of the two databases. Additionally, there were significant associations of mosapride and L-carbocisteine with increased risk of DILI. In addition to well-known associations between antibiotic drugs and DILI, mosapride and L-carbocisteine were found to be new potential signals of drugs causing hepatotoxicity. This study indicates potential hepatotoxic drugs that require further causality assessment.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The objective of this study was to determine the variation in intrapleural pressure (IPP) with and without air leakage using a digital chest drainage system (DCS) for each pressure setting. METHODS In this retrospective single-centre study, we analysed 49,553 h of air leakage after anatomical lung resection in 714 patients between 2018 and 2020. The transition of mean IPP and mean air leak flow was monitored using DCS, and the association between mean IPP and mean air leak flow was examined. The relationship between the transition of mean IPP and air leakage according to the varying suction pressures on DCS was also investigated. RESULTS Overall, 272 patients (38.1%) showed air leakage after surgery. The mean IPP in patients without air leakage was -12.0 ± 2.9 cmH2O and maintained at about -12 cmH2O constantly, while the mean IPP in patients with air leakage was -8.3 ± 1.9 cmH2O, which changed to -12 cmH2O instantly if air leakage disappeared (P < 0.001). Among patients with air leakage, the mean IPP changed more distinctly in patients with mild suction management than in those with conventional suction management (-5.0 ± 2.6 to -11.5 ± 4.2 and -8.8 ± 1.3 to -12.1 ± 2.5 cmH2O, respectively; P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS The change in IPP on a DCS is useful for detecting air leakage. Furthermore, management with a mild suction setting on DCS makes it easy to recognize the disappearance of postoperative air leakage.

Abstract
Background The nodal classification of lung cancer is determined by the anatomical location of metastatic lymph nodes (mLNs). However, prognosis can be heterogeneous at the same nodal stage, and the current classification system requires improvement. Therefore, we investigated the correlation between the number of mLNs and prognosis in patients with non-small cell lung cancer. Methods Using a multicenter database in Japan, we retrospectively reviewed the records of patients who underwent complete resection for lung cancer between 2010 and 2016. Kaplan-Meier curves were used to determine recurrence-free and overall survival. Multivariate analyses were performed using the Cox proportional hazards model. Results We included 1,567 patients in this study. We could show a statistically significant difference in recurrence-free survival between pN2 patients with 1 mLN and pN2 patients with ≥2 mLNs (P=0.016). Patients with a combination of pN1 (≥4 mLNs) plus pN2 (1 mLN) had a poorer prognosis than pN1 patients (1-3 mLNs) (P=0.061) and a better prognosis than pN2 patients (≥2 mLNs) patients (P=0.007). Multivariate analysis showed that the number of mLNs was independently associated with cancer recurrence in patients with pN1 and pN2 disease (P=0.034 and 0.018, respectively). Conclusions Nodal classification that combines anatomical location and the number of mLNs may predict prognosis more accurately than the current classification system. Our study provides the concept that supports the subdivision of nodal classification in the upcoming revision of the tumor, node, and metastasis staging system.

Abstract
Antipsychotics often cause tardive dyskinesia, an adverse symptom of involuntary hyperkinetic movements. Analysis of the US Food and Drug Administration Adverse Event Reporting System and JMDC insurance claims revealed that acetaminophen prevented the dyskinesia induced by dopamine D2 receptor antagonists. In vivo experiments further showed that a 21-day treatment with haloperidol increased the number of vacuous chewing movements (VCMs) in rats, an effect that was inhibited by oral acetaminophen treatment or intracerebroventricular injection of N-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-arachidonylamide (AM404), an acetaminophen metabolite that acts as an activator of the transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 (TRPV1). In mice, haloperidol-induced VCMs were also mitigated by treatment with AM404 applied to the dorsal striatum, an effect not seen in TRPV1-deficient mice. Acetaminophen prevented the haloperidol-induced decrease in the number of c-Fos+preproenkephalin+ striatal neurons in wild-type mice but not in TRPV1-deficient mice. Finally, chemogenetic stimulation of indirect pathway medium spiny neurons in the dorsal striatum decreased haloperidol-induced VCMs. These results suggest that acetaminophen activates the indirect pathway neurons by activating TRPV1 channels via AM404.

Abstract
Background The Oncomine Dx Target Test (ODxTT) is a next‐generation sequencing‐based companion diagnostic test which has been recently developed; however, its analysis success rate could be improved, especially for small samples. The aim of this study was to identify the pathological factors associated with biopsy specimens that affect the analysis success rate of ODxTT. Methods We retrospectively investigated 119 cases subjected to ODxTT at Kanagawa Cancer Center. Data pertaining to the results of BRAF V600E mutation analysis in ODxTT and pathological factors based on microscope slides were collected. Pathological factors including tissue surface area, tumor cell count, and tumor content rate were assessed. We constructed receiver operating characteristic curves and determined the optimal cutoff values of each pathological factor. Multivariate logistic analysis was used to identify significant factors. Results A total of 98 of 119 samples were successfully analyzed (75.6%). The tissue surface area and tumor cell count were significantly higher in the group associated with analysis success (P < 0.001 and P = 0.011, respectively), and their optimal cutoff values were 1.04 mm2 and 375 cells, respectively. A tissue surface area > 1.04 mm2 and tumor cell count >375 cells had a positive effect on the analysis success rate of ODxTT (odds ratio [OR] 0.10; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.03–0.35; P < 0.001 and OR 0.25; 95% CI: 0.07–0.90; P = 0.033, respectively). Conclusions Selecting samples with a tissue surface area > 1.04 mm2 and a tumor cell count >375 cells might improve the analysis success rate of ODxTT. Key points Significant findings of the study: We found that a tissue surface area > 1.04 mm2 and tumor cell count >375 cells had a positive effect on the analysis success rate of ODxTT in the analysis of biopsy tissue samples. What this study adds: It is sometimes necessary to assess genetic alterations with a small biopsy sample in daily practice. The criteria mentioned above will help to determine which tests should be performed, ODxTT or multiple single‐gene testing.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cancer stem cells (CSCs) are involved in cancer metastasis and relapse. Therefore, identification of CSC biomarkers might help determine the success of a treatment. In this study, we examined the expression of four CSC markers: Cluster of differentiation 44 variant (CD44v), leucine-rich repeat-containing G-protein-coupled receptor 5 (LGR5), frizzled 7 (FZD7), and muscle, intestine and stomach expression 1 (MIST1), in cancer tissues of patients with non-small-cell lung cancer at >5 years after resection, and its clinical significance. PATIENTS AND METHODS We examined the expression of each CSC marker in 360 patients with NSCLC (n=360) who underwent curative resection by immunohistochemical analysis of tissue microarrays, and determined its relationship with survival. RESULTS High expression of MIST1 was related to better overall survival (p<0.05); high CD44v expression was associated with poor overall and recurrence-free survival (p<0.001 for both) and thus, CD44v was defined as an independent prognostic factor (p<0.05), according to a multivariate analysis. CONCLUSION Tumoral CD44v expression might be a useful prognostic marker for patients after curative resection of NSCLC.

Abstract
Recent pharmacological studies have been developed based on finding new disease-related genes, accompanied by the production of gene-manipulated disease model animals and high-affinity ligands for the target proteins. However, the emergence of this gene-based strategy in drug development has led to the rapid depletion of drug target molecules. To overcome this, we have attempted to utilize clinical big data to explore a novel and unexpected hypothesis of drug-drug interaction that would lead to drug repositioning. Here, we introduce our data-driven approach in which adverse event self-reports are statistically analyzed and compared in order to find and validate new drug targets. The hypotheses provided by such a data-driven approach will likely impact the style of future drug development and pharmaceutical study.

Abstract
Background:Biologic disease modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (DMARDs) have demonstrated that proinflammatory cytokines such as interleukin (IL-) 6 and tumor necrosis factor (TNF) play important roles in the pathogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Other cytokines, such as type I interferons (IFNs), are also implicated in its pathogenesis (ref 1). However, the complete picture of the cytokine network involved in RA remains to be elucidated.Objectives:By quantifying sets of cytokines in the serum of RA patients before and after treatment with various biologic DMARDs, we sought to determine the effects of drugs on (A) type I IFNs, (B) soluble IL-6 receptors, and (C) other cytokines.Methods:52 patients with RA were treated with various biologic DMARDs (tocilizumab (TOC): 16, abatacept (ABT): 15, and TNF inhibitors (TNFi): 21). Serum samples were obtained (1) before, (2) approximately 4 weeks after (3) and approximately 12 weeks after the initiation of treatment. A suspension bead-array system was used for analysis; Bio-Plex Human Cytokine 17-plex Assay kits and Express Custom Panels (Bio-Rad), including IFN-β, IFN-α2, soluble IL-6 receptor α (sIL6Rα) and gp130 were used.Results:(1) As expected, the disease activity score 28-joiny count (DAS28) using the erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) significantly decreased in all three groups (TOC, ABT and TNFi) by 12 weeks.(2) IFN-α2 was barely detected in the serum samples. IFN-β seemed to increase slightly in the ABT group, but the increase was not statistically significant.(3) The levels of sIL6Rα did not change substantially. Those of gp130 decreased slightly but significantly in the TOC group by 12 weeks.(4) The levels of IL-6 decreased significantly in the ABT group by 12 weeks. Those in the TNFi group decreased significantly at 4 weeks but not 12 weeks (Fig. 1A).(5) The levels of IL-7 decreased significantly only in the TOC group (Fig. 1B).Conclusion:(1) The biologic DMARDs tested in this study did not significantly affect the serum levels of type I IFNs in this study.(2) The decrease in gp130 in the TOC group may imply that gp130 is induced by IL-6, although whether this level of decrease has physiological significance is open to question.(3) Serum IL-6 was significantly decreased in the TNFi group at 4 weeks but not 12 weeks. TNF has been reported to induce IL-6 (ref 2), but negative feedback loop(s) may be present. Such a feedback system might make the discontinuation of TNFi difficult, even if patients are in remission.(4) IL-7 may be a target of IL-6. A higher level of IL-7 has been reported to be present in the joints of RA patients compared with osteoarthrosis and it is a cytokine implicated in the differentiation of osteoclasts (ref 3). This may partly explain the effect of TOC on preventing bone erosion in RA.References:[1]Ann Rheum Dis. 2007; 66: 1008–14[2]Rheumatology 2007; 46: 920-6[3]Rheumatology 2008; 47: 753-9Acknowledgments:We thank all the members of the Division of Rheumatology and Clinical Immunology, Department of Medicine, Jichi Medical University.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Acute exacerbation of interstitial pneumonia (AE-IP) is a lethal complication after lung surgery. We conducted a prospective, multi-institutional phase II trial to assess the efficacy and safety of prophylactic measures. METHOD Patients with lung cancer with dorsal subpleural fibrotic changes occupying three or more segments of both lower lobes and planned anatomical lung resection were enrolled. Prior to surgery, patients received a 125-mg bolus injection of methylprednisolone and continuous intravenous infusion of sivelestat sodium hydrate (sivelestat) for 2 days. RESULTS Sixty-nine patients were analysed. Preoperative high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) showed 37 (53.6%) cases presented with usual interstitial pneumonia (UIP) and possible UIP pattern. There were 60 lobectomies and 9 segmentectomies. Thirty-eight cases were in clinical stage I. No adverse events associated with prophylaxis were observed. There were four cases of AE-IP (5.8%), higher than the expected 2.0%. Three of the four cases showed inconsistencies with the UIP pattern in preoperative HRCT and were pathologically diagnosed as UIP. All patients died of respiratory failure. Overall, 89.9% were diagnosed as idiopathic interstitial pneumonias; UIP was found in 48 patients (69.6%). Severe post-operative complications occurred in 11.6% of the cases. There were 35 deaths, 17 cases of lung cancer and 11 cases related to interstitial pneumonias. The overall survival rate at 3 years was 41.8% of the total and 47.2% of cases with clinical stage I. CONCLUSIONS Perioperative use of sivelestat and low-dose methylprednisolone in patients with anatomical lung resection was safe but did not prove to be a prophylactic effect for AE-IP.

Abstract
Background Bronchopleural fistula (BPF) remains a serious complication after surgery for lung cancer with bronchial resection. A free pericardial fat pad (FPFP) is applied in high-risk cases to reduce BPF frequency. BPF may occur 6 months after surgery. Thus, we evaluated the residual FPFP volume at 6 months after surgery to estimate the residual FPFP ratio and determine the amount of FPFP to be harvested during surgery. Methods We retrospectively investigated 40 patients who underwent lobectomy with bronchial stump coverage using FPFP. During surgery, the volume of the harvested FPFP was measured and the FPFP was affixed to the bronchial stump. Further, 6 months after surgery, the residual volume of the installed FPFP was analyzed using a three-dimensional volume analyzer and the residual ratio was calculated. We also evaluated clinicopathological factors influencing the resected FPFP and residual ratio. Results The median resected FPFP volume was 11 [3-40] mL. During multivariate analysis, body mass index and surgical approach were found to be significant factors associated with the resected FPFP volume. The median residual FPFP volume was 4.3 (0.4-15.5) mL. The median residual ratio was 0.39 (0.13-0.66). The resected FPFP volume was significantly associated with the residual volume (P<0.001) but not with the residual ratio (P=0.811). No factor was associated with the residual ratio. Conclusions In all cases, residual FPFP was confirmed at 6 months after surgery and the residual ratio was 40%. It is necessary to determine the volume of FPFP to be harvested while carefully considering the shrinkage ratio.

Abstract
Desmoid-type fibromatosis following thoracotomy is rare and has been previously reported only in <20 cases; however, it might mimic chest wall recurrence of previous cancer and needs differential diagnosis. When the tumor location corresponded to the thoracotomy incision, we should consider desmoid-type fibromatosis as a differential diagnosis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The prognostic significance of blood and lymphatic vessel invasion in the 8th edition of the Tumor, Node, Metastasis (TNM) classification remains unclear. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the prognostic significance of blood and lymphatic vessel invasion in p-stage IA lung adenocarcinoma in the 8th edition of the TNM classification. MATERIALS ANDMETHODS We retrospectively examined patients with p-Stage 0-IA lung adenocarcinoma, reclassified according to the 8th edition of the TNM classification. Blood and lymphatic vessel invasion were evaluated using hematoxylin-eosin and Elastica van Gieson and hematoxylin-eosin and anti-podoplanin antibody staining, respectively. Combined blood and lymphatic vessel invasion constituted tumor vessel invasion (TVI). RESULTS Overall, 306 patients were evaluated. The median follow-up period was 98.0 (range: 10-216) months. The 5-year recurrence-free survival differed significantly among patients with and without TVI in p-stage IA1 (TVI-: 100%, TVI+: 88.9%, P = 0.007) and IA2 (TVI-: 94.6%, TVI+: 80.8%, P = 0.012) but not in p-stage IA3 (TVI-: 66.7%, TVI+: 75.0%, P = 0.598). The 5-year lung cancer-specific survival also differed significantly among those with and without TVI in p-stage IA1 (TVI-: 100%, TVI+: 88.9%, P < 0.001) and IA2 (TVI-: 98.2%, TVI+: 88.7%, P = 0.043) but not in p-Stage IA3 (TVI-: 66.7%, TVI+: 75.0%, P = 0.858). No recurrence and lung cancer-specific deaths occurred in p-stage IA1 patients without TVI. On multivariate analysis, the presence of TVI was independently associated with recurrence and lung cancer-specific death in patients with p-stage IA1-2 lung adenocarcinoma. TVI did not affect the prognosis of those with p-stage IA3 adenocarcinoma. CONCLUSION TVI is a prognostic factor in patients with p-stage IA1-2 lung adenocarcinoma. P-stage IA1 lung adenocarcinoma without TVI may therefore be classified as minimally invasive.

Abstract
We report on the nuclear dependence of transverse single-spin asymmetries (TSSAs) in the production of positively charged hadrons in polarized p^{↑}+p, p^{↑}+Al, and p^{↑}+Au collisions at sqrt[s_{NN}]=200 GeV. The measurements have been performed at forward rapidity (1.4<η<2.4) over the range of transverse momentum (1.8<p_{T}<7.0 GeV/c) and Feynman x (0.1<x_{F}<0.2). We observed positive asymmetries for positively charged hadrons in p^{↑}+p collisions, and significantly reduced asymmetries in p^{↑}+A collisions. These results reveal a nuclear dependence of TSSAs for charged-hadron production in a regime where perturbative techniques are applicable. These results provide new opportunities to use p^{↑}+A collisions as a tool to investigate the rich phenomena behind TSSAs in hadronic collisions and to use TSSAs as a new handle in studying small-system collisions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The category of grade 3 neuroendocrine tumor (NET G3) was newly introduced in the 2017 World Health Organization (WHO 2017) classification of neuroendocrine neoplasms of the pancreas. Pancreatic NET G3 shows a carcinoid-like morphology with high proliferative activity and the prognosis is intermediate between NET G2 and neuroendocrine carcinoma. There is no category corresponding to NET G3 in the current WHO 2015 classification of lung tumors. Herein, we report two cases of lung neuroendocrine carcinoma with carcinoid morphology that correspond to NET G3. CASE PRESENTATION Case 1: An abnormal chest shadow was detected in a 78-year-old female never-smoker during a routine medical examination. She was asymptomatic. The radiological assessment revealed a mass in the peripheral S4 segment of the right lung. She underwent right middle lobectomy for the mass preoperatively diagnosed as non-small cell lung carcinoma. Postoperative histological examination revealed a neuroendocrine tumor with carcinoid morphology and a mitotic count of 15/2 mm2. Case 2: An abnormal chest shadow was detected in a 74-year-old female never-smoker undergoing follow-up for another disease. She was asymptomatic. The radiological assessment revealed a mass in the peripheral S3 segment of the right lung. She underwent right upper lobectomy for the mass suspected to be lung carcinoma. Postoperative histological examination revealed a neuroendocrine tumor with carcinoid morphology with mitotic count of 13/2 mm2. Both of these tumors showed carcinoid morphology but with a mitotic count exceeding 10/2 mm2; thus, we diagnosed them as small cell lung carcinomas according to the current WHO 2015 classification. CONCLUSIONS Our tumors occurred in female never-smokers and their histology showed carcinoid morphology without extensive necrosis. Moreover, proliferative abilities of them were extremely low compared to small cell lung carcinoma. The clinical and pathological features of our tumors appeared to be different from those of small cell lung carcinoma. Although there is no category corresponding to NET G3 in the current classification of lung tumors, we consider that our tumors may correspond to NET G3 and identification of this subset is relevant for therapeutic management.

Abstract
Background The staging of patients with a tumor of diameter 4.1-5.0 cm and no lymphatic/distant metastases have been up-graded to stage IIA in the latest 8th edition of the TNM staging system. However, the efficacy of adjuvant tegafur-uracil (UFT) therapy in these patients, which has been recommended in the guideline issued by The Japan Lung Cancer Society, remains unclear. We evaluated the efficacy of adjuvant UFT therapy among a cohort by retrospective analyses of multicentric database. Methods In 2005-2007, 130 patients with p-stage IB non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) (diagnosed according to the 7th edition of the TNM staging system) and tumor size of ≥3.1 cm underwent anatomic complete resection at nine of our affiliated hospitals. We retrospectively reviewed the clinicopathological characteristics and the outcomes among these patients. Results Ninety-eight patients had tumor size of 3.1-4.0 cm (T2a group), whereas 32 patients had tumor size >4.0 cm (T2b group). Overall, patients who received adjuvant UFT showed a tendency of better outcomes than patients who did not [hazard ratio (HR) 0.564; 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.257-1.238, P=0.147]. In subgroup analyses, patients who received adjuvant UFT also tended to show better outcomes than those who did not in both T2a group and T2b group (HR 0.504; 95% CI, 0.202-1.255, P=0.132 in T2a group and HR 0.855; 95% CI, 0.181-4.033, P=0.843 in T2b group, respectively). Conclusions Our results suggest that adjuvant UFT therapy have the potential to improve postoperative outcomes even in patients with p-stage IIA disease, as classified according to the 8th edition of the TNM staging system.

Abstract
Sleeve lobectomy is a useful procedure for avoiding pneumonectomy. However, bronchovascular sleeve resection of the right middle lobe is very rare. We describe a patient who underwent this procedure, along with illustrations and a surgical movie. The patient was a 76-year-old woman with a 4.5-cm squamous cell carcinoma in the right middle lobe, involving the interlobar pulmonary artery (PA) with bulky #11s lymph-node metastasis. Middle lobectomy with vascular reconstruction of the interlobar PA was planned. A posterior lateral thoracotomy was performed. After subcarinal lymph-node dissection, the upper lobe and intermedial bronchus were confirmed. From the ventral side, the superior pulmonary vein (PV) was dissected, preserving the upper lobe PV. The lower lobe PA was exposed at the level of the major fissure. The interlobar PA was not involved by the tumor, but the #11s lymph nodes showed wide extranodal invasion to the bronchus intermedius, requiring a long bronchial-sleeve resection. To obtain a better view to manipulate invaded bronchus, the interlobar PA was transected. The bronchus intermedius was cut off on the proximal side at the end of the upper lobe bronchus, including the underside of the bronchus to ensure an adequate surgical margin, and on the distal side along only the lower lobe bronchus inlet. An anastomosis was performed with interrupted 4-0 PDS sutures. After a sealing test, the interlobar PA was trimmed as the bronchus shortened and was anastomosed with a 5-0 Prolene running suture. The lower lobe was well expanded. No tissue interposition was used. The operation time was 307 minutes, and the blood loss was 200 g. Pathological examination confirmed complete resection. The postoperative course was uneventful. Even in patients with right middle lung cancer widely invading the bronchus intermedius, transaction and reconstruction of interlobar PA provides a good view and facilitates easy manipulation for sleeve resection.

Abstract
Asymmetric nuclear collisions of p+Al, p+Au, d+Au, and ^{3}He+Au at sqrt[s_{NN}]=200 GeV provide an excellent laboratory for understanding particle production, as well as exploring interactions among these particles after their initial creation in the collision. We present measurements of charged hadron production dN_{ch}/dη in all such collision systems over a broad pseudorapidity range and as a function of collision multiplicity. A simple wounded quark model is remarkably successful at describing the full data set. We also measure the elliptic flow v_{2} over a similarly broad pseudorapidity range. These measurements provide key constraints on models of particle emission and their translation into flow.

Abstract
This study was performed to investigate the clinical characteristics of lupus enteritis in Japanese patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). A total of 481 patients with SLE admitted to our hospital between 2001 and 2015 were retrospectively reviewed. Diagnosis of lupus enteritis was based on the following three criteria: (1) abdominal symptoms, (2) diffuse long-segment bowel thickening and (3) a requirement for glucocorticoid therapy. Lupus enteritis was identified in 17 patients (3.5%) and there were two distinct types: small intestine-dominant and large intestine-dominant. Significant differences between the two types were noted with respect to the age, frequency of biopsy-proven lupus nephritis, frequency of rectal involvement, maximum bowel wall thickness, and requirement for steroid pulse therapy. Among patients with large intestine-dominant lupus enteritis, 60% had extra-intestinal symptoms (hydroureter, bladder wall thickening, and bile duct dilatation) that are known complications of intestinal pseudo-obstruction. Two patients with large intestine-dominant lupus enteritis developed intestinal pseudo-obstruction either before or after diagnosis of lupus enteritis. Five patients (29%) developed recurrence during a median observation period of 7.2 years (1.4-14.4 years). In conclusion, large intestine-dominant lupus enteritis resembles intestinal pseudo-obstruction and these two diseases may have a common pathogenesis.

Abstract
Abstract
[Background] Axilla surgery in node-positive breast cancer is dramatically changing from axillary lymph node dissection (ALND) to sentinel node biopsy (SNB). From the results of ACOSOG Z0011, IBCSG23-01 and AMAROS trials, adjuvant therapy and regional node irradiation could reduce regional lymph node recurrence for sentinel node-positive breast cancer patients. However, optimal indication of SNB alone remains uncertain. Trial design: To evaluate the outcome of sentinel node-positive breast cancer patients, the Japanese Society for Sentinel Node Navigation Surgery (SNNS) conducted a prospective cohort study in 2013 (UMIN000011782, Jpn J Clin Oncol, p.876-9, 2014). [Eligibility criteria] For eligible patients, SNB was performed or scheduled after 1 January 2012. Then 1 to 3 positive micrometastases or macrometastases in sentinel lymph nodes are confirmed by histological or molecular diagnosis. Primary chemotherapy before or after SNB is also acceptable for registration. [Specific aims] The primary endpoint is the 5-year recurrence rate of regional lymph node in patients treated with SNB alone. The secondary endpoint is the 5-year overall survival rate of this cohort. Patients treated with SNB followed by ALND are also registered simultaneously to compare the prognosis. The propensity score matching (PSM) is used to make the distributions of baseline risk factors comparable. [Statistical method] Based on an estimated recurrence rate of 5% at 5 years among patients treated with SNB alone, 240 patients are needed to give a 80% power to reject the null hypothesis that the recurrence rate is 10% with a one-sided type I error rate of 2.5%. If we consider that some patients will be lost to follow-up or become ineligible, a total of 250 patients will be needed to comprise the sample. [Present accrual] Eight hundred and eighty patients who underwent SNB alone or SNB followed by ALND were registered from 27 participating institutes between 2013 and 2016. Data cleaning is being performed. Patient's background and PSM will be reported.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: Pertuzumab provided overall and progression-free survival (PFS) benefits in HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer patients (pts) in the CLEOPATRA (Clinical evaluation of docetaxel, pertuzumab and trastuzumab) study. However, few studies have described the efficacy of other drugs in combination with pertuzumab plus trastuzumab. Here, we present a pre-specified analysis of eribulin in combination with pertuzumab plus trastuzumab as first- and second-line therapy for advanced or metastatic breast cancer (AMBC) in a multicenter, open-label phase II study (UMIN000012232, JBCRG-M03).
Methods: HER2-positive AMBC with no or single prior chemotherapy for AMBC were enrolled. All pts were administered trastuzumab and taxane as adjuvant or first-line chemotherapy. Treatment consisted of eribulin 1.4 mg/m2 on days 1 and 8 of a 21-day cycle and trastuzumab (8 mg/kg loading dose, then 6 mg/kg) plus pertuzumab (840 mg/body loading dose, then 420 mg/ body) once every 3 weeks, all administered intravenously. The primary endpoint was PFS, and secondary endpoints included overall response rate (ORR) and safety. PFS was determined using Kaplan–Meier analysis. Tumor response was assessed according to RECIST ver. 1.1.
Results: Fifty pts were enrolled from November 2013 to April 2016. Forty-nine pts were eligible for safety analysis and the full analysis set (FAS) included 46 pts. The median age was 56 years (23–70), and 8 (16%) and 41 (84%) pts were treated in first- and second-line settings, respectively. Eleven pts (23.9%) were de-novo Stage 4, and 35 pts (76.1%) had progressed in metastatic disease after completion of local therapy. Median PFS was 9.3 months (M) (95% confidence interval [CI]: 6.4–12.3). Table 1 shows the efficacy data for each treatment line and includes ORR, complete response rate (CR), partial response rate (PR), stable disease rate (SD), progressive disease rate (PD), not evaluable rate (NE) and PFS in the FAS. The median relative dose intensities of eribulin, trastuzumab, and pertuzumab were 93.3% (77.0%–100%), 100% (96.0%–100%), and 100% (89.7%–100%), respectively, in the FAS. The grade 3/4 adverse events (AE) were neutropenia in 5 pts (10.2%), including 2 pts (4.1%) with febrile neutropenia; hypertension in 3 pts (6.1%), and other AEs in only one patient. The average of the ejection fraction did not decrease significantly. Symptomatic left ventricular systolic dysfunction was not observed.
Conclusion: In pts with HER2-positive AMBC, first- and second-line therapy of eribulin in combination with pertuzumab plus trastuzumab demonstrated substantial antitumor activity with an acceptable safety profile. We are planning a phase III study comparing eribulin with taxanes in combination with pertuzumab plus trastuzumab for the treatment of HER2-positive AMBC.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: Obesity and insulin resistance are associated with inferior levels of chemosensitivity and overall prognosis for breast cancer (BC) treatment. Recent studies suggest that the quality and quantity of visceral adipose tissue (VAT) play a significant role in adipocyte function, and are related to insulin resistance. We therefore tested the hypothesis that high amount and low quality of VAT worsen treatment outcomes via insulin resistance mechanisms.
Patients and Methods: We examined two independent studies: a cross-sectional study (cohort 1) and a retrospective study (cohort 2). Cohort 1 included 106 women with early-stage BC who were undergoing surgery. Patients with normal weight (17.5< body mass index [BMI, kg/m2] ≤25, n = 53) and overweight/obese patients (BMI >25, n = 53) were selected by a pair-matching method. Insulin resistance was evaluated by HOMA-R: fasting insulin (microU/L) × fasting glucose (nmol/L)/22.5. And insulin-like growth factor (IGF) family including IGF-1 and IGF-binding protein 3 (IGFBP3) were measured before beginning treatment. The amounts of visceral fat (aVAT) was measured by 3-dimensional volumetric software using the stocked computed tomography (CT) imaging data. The quality of VAT was assessed based on the mode value of CT Hounsfield Unit of VAT (VAT-HU) at navel level of CT axial view. The association between the former variables and the quality and quantity of VAT was analyzed. Cohort 2 included 271 patients who received chemotherapy in the neo-adjuvant (NAC) or adjuvant setting. Imaging analysis was performed in the same way, and the association between those values and survival outcome after chemotherapy was analyzed by retrospective chart review.
Results: In cohort 1, aVAT was significantly correlated with serum insulin and HOMA-R levels (Pearson's R 0.44 and 0.42, respectively; P<0.05). On comparing the two groups divided by BMI, the levels of IGF-1 and IGFBP3 were not significantly different between the normal weight and the overweight/obese groups (P = 0.31 and 0.77, respectively). However, the overweight/obese group demonstrated significantly higher HOMA-R (P<0.05). In cohort 2, aVAT was significantly correlated with BMI (P<0.05). In a multivariate analysis, pathological complete responses were not associated with aVAT (P = 0.60). After a median follow-up of 112 months, tertile stratification revealed that the third tertile of aVAT had a significantly shorter distant disease free survival (DDFS) in the NAC setting (p<0.05). When adjusted by covariates in the Cox proportional regression model, aVAT and VAT-HU demonstrated significant contribution to a worsened DDFS ([p<0.05, hazard ratio {HR} 1.39; 95% confidence interval {CI} 1.11 to 1.75] and [p<0.05, HR 1.20, 95% CI 1.01 to 1.43], respectively).
Conclusions: Our study found that high amounts and low quality of VAT worsen treatment outcomes. Furthermore, we found that insulin resistance was related to those two factors. Although further validation is needed, our present work suggests the importance of evaluating the quality and quantity of visceral fat for estimating insulin resistance and treatment outcomes after chemotherapy for patients with early-stage BC.

Abstract
Recently, multiparticle-correlation measurements of relativistic p/d/^{3}He+Au, p+Pb, and even p+p collisions show surprising collective signatures. Here, we present beam-energy-scan measurements of two-, four-, and six-particle angular correlations in d+Au collisions at sqrt[s_{NN}]=200, 62.4, 39, and 19.6 GeV. We also present measurements of two- and four-particle angular correlations in p+Au collisions at sqrt[s_{NN}]=200 GeV. We find the four-particle cumulant to be real valued for d+Au collisions at all four energies. We also find that the four-particle cumulant in p+Au has the opposite sign as that in d+Au. Further, we find that the six-particle cumulant agrees with the four-particle cumulant in d+Au collisions at 200 GeV, indicating that nonflow effects are subdominant. These observations provide strong evidence that the correlations originate from the initial geometric configuration, which is then translated into the momentum distribution for all particles, commonly referred to as collectivity.
