Abstract
The effect of the U-shaped cavity of conformationally flexible chiral Lewis acidic boron-based catalysts in multiselective Diels-Alder reactions was investigated. The U-shaped catalysts can recognize substituents at the terminal acetylene moiety of propynal based on steric factors and can also recognize alkyne and alkene substrates based on the match/mismatch between the catalysts and substrates. Moreover, even in a mixture of different catalysts and substrates, the desired competitive reactions can proceed multiselectively. This proof-of-concept study should contribute to the development of artificial enzyme-like catalysis in vitro.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Haploidentical peripheral blood stem cell transplantation (haplo-PBSCT) with post-transplant cyclophosphamide (PTCy) is an important therapeutic option for patients lacking an HLA-matched donor. However, the significance of CD34+ cell dose in grafts has not been fully elucidated. OBJECTIVE We aimed to explore the impact of CD34+ cell dose on outcomes after haplo-PBSCT with PTCy. STUDY DESIGN We retrospectively investigated 111 consecutive patients who underwent haplo-PBSCT with PTCy or HLA-matched PBSCT from related donors. RESULTS There were no statistically significant differences in 3-year overall survival (p = 0.559) or progression-free survival (p = 0.974) between haplo-PBSCT and matched PBSCT. Delayed neutrophil engraftment and a lower incidence of graft-versus-host disease were observed in haplo-PBSCT. The median dose of CD34+ cells was 4.9 × 106 /kg in 57 haplo-PBSCT and 4.5 × 106 /kg in 54 matched PBSCTs. Importantly, patients who underwent haplo-PBSCT with the administration of CD34+ cell at a dose of ≥4.0 × 106 /kg significantly had improved OS (p = 0.015) and decreased incidence of disease relapse (p = 0.001) without increasing incidence of GVHD. CONCLUSION Our data suggest that a higher dose of CD34+ cells in haplo-PBSCT with PTCy positively impacts the outcomes without an increase of GVHD.

Abstract
T follicular helper (TFH) cell lymphomas (TFHLs) are characterized by TFH-like properties and accompanied by substantial immune-cell infiltration into tumor tissues. Nevertheless, the comprehensive understanding of tumor-cell heterogeneity and immune profiles of TFHL remains elusive. To address this, we conducted single-cell transcriptomic analysis on 9 lymph node (LN) and 16 peripheral blood (PB) samples from TFHL patients. Tumor cells were divided into 5 distinct subclusters, with significant heterogeneity observed in the expression levels of TFH markers. Copy number variation (CNV) and trajectory analyses indicated that the accumulation of CNVs, together with gene mutations, may drive the clonal evolution of tumor cells towards TFH-like and cell proliferation phenotypes. Additionally, we identified a novel tumor-cell-specific marker, PLS3. Notably, we found a significant increase in exhausted CD8+ T cells with oligoclonal expansion in TFHL LNs and PB, along with distinctive immune evasion characteristics exhibited by infiltrating regulatory T, myeloid, B, and natural killer cells. Finally, in-silico and spatial cell-cell interaction analyses revealed complex networking between tumor and immune cells, driving the formation of an immunosuppressive microenvironment. These findings highlight the remarkable tumor-cell heterogeneity and immunoevasion in TFHL beyond previous expectations, suggesting potential roles in treatment resistance.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hypomethylating agents, including azacytidine (AZA), are standard therapeutics for patients with high-risk myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS), a group of myeloid neoplasms. However, treatment schedules are not unified in real-world practice; in addition to the standard 7-day (standard-dose) schedule, shortened (reduced-dose) schedules are also used. AIMS The aim of this study was to discover the patient group(s) which show differential efficacy between standard-and reduced-dose AZA to MDS. METHODS AND RESULTS The outcome of different AZA doses in a cohort of 151 MDS patients were retrospectively analyzed. Overall survival (OS) was not significantly different between standard- and reduced-dose AZA groups by multivariate analysis. However, an interaction was found between either the sex (female vs. male), the platelet counts (< 40 × 103 /μl vs. ≥ 40 × 103 /μl), or the karyotype risk (< poor vs. ≥ poor) and standard-dose AZA for longer OS. Subgroup analyses revealed better OS with standard- over reduced-dose AZA in female patients (HR, 0.27 [95% CI, 0.090-0.79]; p = 0.011), and those with platelet counts ≥ 40 × 103 /μl (HR, 0.51 [95% CI, 0.26-0.99]; p = 0.041). The union of female and preserved platelet count subgroups also benefited from standard-dose AZA. With this as a test cohort, we next analyzed patients registered in the JALSG MDS212 study, for whom 7-day and 5-day AZA treatment strategies were prospectively compared, as a validation cohort (N = 172). That cohort showed the same tendency as the retrospective results. CONCLUSION We identified the union of female and preserved platelet count subgroups which benefited from standard-dose AZA, imparting crucial information to physicians planning treatment regimens in MDS patients.

Abstract
A 64-year-old woman presented with fine motor impairment in both hands. MRI revealed a contrast-enhanced lesion in the medulla oblongata. Lymphoid cells with abnormal blebs were observed and a CD4+/CD8+ double positive (DP) T cell population was detected by flow cytometry (FCM) in the bone marrow (BM) and the peripheral blood (PB). CLEC16A::IL2 fusion gene was identified by whole exome sequencing with DNA prepared from DP T cells. Clonal rearrangement of the T-cell receptor gene and expression of TCL1A protein were detected. This led to a diagnosis of T-cell prolymphocytic leukemia (T-PLL) with central nervous system (CNS) infiltration. Abnormal cells in BM and PB became undetectable on microscopy and FCM, and the CNS lesion disappeared on MRI after second-line therapy with alemtuzumab. Meanwhile, the CLEC16A::IL2 fusion mRNA remained detectable in PB. Allogeneic hematopoietic stem-cell transplantation was performed, and the fusion mRNA has now been undetectable for more than 5 years since transplantation. This is the first report of a T-PLL case with a CLEC16A::IL2 fusion gene.

Abstract
Detailed measurements of the spectral structure of cosmic-ray electrons and positrons from 10.6 GeV to 7.5 TeV are presented from over 7 years of observations with the CALorimetric Electron Telescope (CALET) on the International Space Station. The instrument, consisting of a charge detector, an imaging calorimeter, and a total absorption calorimeter with a total depth of 30 radiation lengths at normal incidence and a fine shower imaging capability, is optimized to measure the all-electron spectrum well into the TeV region. Because of the excellent energy resolution (a few percent above 10 GeV) and the outstanding e/p separation (10^{5}), CALET provides optimal performance for a detailed search of structures in the energy spectrum. The analysis uses data up to the end of 2022, and the statistics of observed electron candidates has increased more than 3 times since the last publication in 2018. By adopting an updated boosted decision tree analysis, a sufficient proton rejection power up to 7.5 TeV is achieved, with a residual proton contamination less than 10%. The observed energy spectrum becomes gradually harder in the lower energy region from around 30 GeV, consistently with AMS-02, but from 300 to 600 GeV it is considerably softer than the spectra measured by DAMPE and Fermi-LAT. At high energies, the spectrum presents a sharp break around 1 TeV, with a spectral index change from -3.15 to -3.91, and a broken power law fitting the data in the energy range from 30 GeV to 4.8 TeV better than a single power law with 6.9 sigma significance, which is compatible with the DAMPE results. The break is consistent with the expected effects of radiation loss during the propagation from distant sources (except the highest energy bin). We have fitted the spectrum with a model consistent with the positron flux measured by AMS-02 below 1 TeV and interpreted the electron+positron spectrum with possible contributions from pulsars and nearby sources. Above 4.8 TeV, a possible contribution from known nearby supernova remnants, including Vela, is addressed by an event-by-event analysis providing a higher proton-rejection power than a purely statistical analysis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Immunosuppressive therapy (IST) with antithymocyte globulin (ATG) and cyclosporin A is the standard treatment for aplastic anemia (AA). However, the efficacy of repeated IST with rabbit ATG (rATG) as salvage therapy remains unclear in patients with relapsed or refractory AA. METHODS We retrospectively evaluated the efficacy and safety of IST2 with rATG (IST2-rATG) in 19 consecutive patients with relapsed or refractory AA who received first-line IST with rATG in two centers between 2009 and 2020. RESULTS The overall 6-month response rate of the patients was 58%. The response rates were similar between patients with relapsed and refractory AA. The presence of glycophosphatidylinositol-deficient blood cells was associated with a better response to IST2-rATG. Despite retreatment with the same rATG, serum disease and severe allergic reactions were not observed. CONCLUSION IST2-rATG is effective and safe for the treatment of adult patients with relapsed and refractory AA after receiving first-line IST with rATG.

Abstract
Graft failure and delayed hematopoietic recovery are the major limitations of cord-blood transplantation (CBT). Romiplostim, a thrombopoietin-receptor agonist, promotes megakaryopoiesis and multilineage hematopoiesis in aplastic anemia. The decreased number of hematopoietic stem cells in the early phase after CBT and aplastic anemia share certain characteristics. Therefore, we hypothesized that romiplostim administration immediately after CBT may promote multilineage hematopoietic recovery. We investigated the safety and preliminary efficacy of administering romiplostim a day after CBT. This phase 1 dose-escalation study included six adults with hematologic malignancies in remission. Romiplostim was administered subcutaneously within 7 days after single-unit CBT, initially at doses of 5 µg/kg or 10 µg/kg in three patients, then once a week for 14 weeks or until platelet recovery. The maximum dose was 20 µg/kg. The median number of romiplostim administrations was 6 (range, 3-15). Romiplostim-related adverse events included bone pain (3/6) and injection site reaction (1/6). Non-hematological grade ≥ 3 toxicities were observed in four patients; febrile neutropenia was the most common (4/6). All patients achieved neutrophil engraftment and the median time was 14 days (range, 12-32). Platelet counts ≥ 50 × 109 /L were recorded in all patients except for one who died on day 48; the median time was 34 days (range, 29-98). No relapse, thrombosis, or bone marrow fibrosis was observed during a median follow-up of 34 months. Romiplostim may be safely administered in the early phase of CBT. Further phase 2 trial is warranted for its efficacy evaluation. Trial registration number: UMIN000033799, August 18, 2018.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) We had conducted a multi-institutional phase II study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of dynamic tumor tracking-stereotactic body radiotherapy (DTT-SBRT) for lung tumors. The primary endpoint was 2-year local control, which was reported to be 95.2%. After the initial evaluation of the primary endpoint, the study was extended as an observational study which was designed to evaluate 5-year survival and late toxicities. We present the long-term results of DTT-SBRT for lung tumors. MATERIALS/METHODS The main eligibility criteria for the study were as follows: (1) primary or metastatic lung cancer with a diameter of 5 cm or less, and up to 3 lesions without any extrapulmonary lesions; (2) ineligibility to standard surgery, or patient's refusal of surgery; (3) ECOG-PS of 0 to 2; and (4) expected range of respiratory motion of 10 mm or more. The study included 48 patients from four institutions with the median age of 80 years (range, 49-90 years). Forty-two patients had primary non-small-cell lung cancer, and 6 patients had metastatic lung tumors. Forty-eight tumors (median diameter, 23.5 mm; range, 5-47 mm) in 48 patients were targeted for DTT-SBRT using a gimbal-mounted linear accelerator. Prior to treatment planning, spherical gold markers were placed around the tumor to detect internal tumor motion using fluoroscopy. The prescribed dose was 50 Gy in four fractions. Treatment beams were delivered with DTT according to a 4D model that predicts internal tumor motion with abdominal wall motion. DTT-SBRT was successfully delivered to all but one patient who had poor correlation between abdominal wall and tumor motion. RESULTS Median follow-up period at data cutoff was 5.0 years (interquartile range, 3.1-6.3 years). Twenty-nine patients died; the causes of death were cancer-specific in 10 patients, comorbidity in 14 patients (pulmonary disease, renal failure, cerebral infarction, other malignancies, etc.), and unknown in 5 patients without cancer recurrence. Overall survival at 5 years was 51.5% (95% confidence interval [CI], 36.5-64.6%). Progression-free survival and local control at 5 years were 41.0% (95% CI, 27.0-54.5%) and 92.6% (95% CI, 78.7-97.6%), respectively. There were no grade 4-5 toxicities. One patient (2%) developed grade 3 radiation pneumonitis at 3 months. Grade 2 toxicities were observed in 9 patients (19%), including dyspnea, radiation pneumonitis, pleural effusion, rib fracture, and dermatitis. CONCLUSION Dynamic tumor tracking SBRT achieved the long-term efficacy with low incidence of severe toxicities in lung tumors with respiratory motion. In this elderly patient cohort, non-cancer deaths were observed more than cancer-specific deaths.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) RTOG 0617 showed that cardiac events are relatively common after high-dose thoracic radiotherapy. The aim of this study was to investigate the incidence and risk of major cardiovascular events (MACE) after concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) with or without durvalumab in patients with stage III non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) using the data from a multi-institutional study in Japan. MATERIALS/METHODS Patients who received CCRT for stage III NSCLC between July 2018 and July 2019 were enrolled in a multi-institutional study in Japan. MACE was defined as follows: symptomatic pericardial effusion, acute coronary syndrome, pericarditis, significant arrhythmia, and heart failure. The cumulative incidence of MACE, accounting for death as a competing risk, was calculated. Pre-existing coronary heart disease (CHD) included coronary artery disease, congestive heart failure, peripheral vascular disease, stroke, and extensive coronary artery calcification. The association between patient/treatment-related factors and MACE was assessed by multivariate analysis. RESULTS Among 178 patients with a median follow-up period of 42.5 months, 13 patients developed MACEs. The 3-year cumulative incidence of MACE was 6.9% (95% confidence interval [CI], 4.0-11.9%). Univariate analysis showed that female sex and mean heart dose (MHD) were marginally associated (3-year cumulative incidence, male 5.6% vs. female 12.1%; P = 0.12; MHD ≥ 6.3 Gy 4.8% vs. < 6.3 Gy 9.1%; P = 0.13), and pre-existing CHD was significantly associated with an increased risk of MACE (no CHD 4.3% vs. CHD 16.8%; P = 0.026). Consolidation durvalumab was not associated with an increased risk of MACE (no durvalumab 5.2% vs. durvalumab 7.4%; P = 0.89). Multivariate analysis showed that pre-existing CHD was significantly associated with MACE (hazard ratio, 4.22; 95% CI, 1.30-13.7; P = 0.016). CONCLUSION The incidence of MACE based on the real-world data in Japan was lower than previously reported. Pre-existing CHD was associated with an increased risk of MACE after CCRT in patients with stage III NSCLC, whereas the administration of consolidation durvalumab was not associated with an increased risk of MACE.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) To investigate the real-world data on overall survival (OS) in patients with stage III non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) treated with concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) with or without consolidation durvalumab, and to perform an exploratory analysis on effective radiation dose to the immune cells (EDIC). MATERIALS/METHODS In our multi-institutional retrospective study, patients who received CCRT between July 2018 and July 2019 for stage III NSCLC in Japan were investigated. EDIC was estimated using mean lung dose, mean heart dose, body volume, body mean dose, and body weight, as reported in the secondary analysis of RTOG 0617. The cut-off value of EDIC was calculated using the maximally selected log-rank statistics. RESULTS One hundred and seventy-eight patients were eligible for the analysis (136 patients, CCRT with consolidation durvalumab [CCRT+D] cohort; 42 patients, CCRT cohort). The median follow-up period was 42.5 months. Three-year OS rates were 59.8% in the overall cohort: 60.5% in the CCRT+D cohort, and 58.0% in the CCRT cohort with no significant difference (hazard ratio [HR], 0.76; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.45-1.27; P = 0.29). Univariate analysis showed that ECOG-PS, smoking history, histology, EGFR mutational status, gross tumor volume and EDIC were significantly associated with OS. Multivariate analysis showed that ECOG-PS 2, gross tumor volume ≥ 57 cm3 and EDIC ≥ 4.4 Gy were associated with poor OS. Among 21 EGFR-mutated patients, 3 year-OS rates were 64.7% in the CCRT+D cohort and 100% in the CCRT cohort, while 3 year-OS rates were 68.8% and 58.7% among 90 EGFR wild-type patients. Three-year OS rates were 64.6% and 47.6% for EDIC < 4.4 Gy and EDIC ≥ 4.4 Gy in the overall cohort (HR, 1.82; 95% CI, 1.14-2.90; P = 0.015). In the subgroup analysis, 66.3% vs. 44.4% in the CCRT+D cohort (HR, 2.01; 95% CI, 1.17-3.47; P = 0.016), and 59.0% vs. 56.1% in the CCRT cohort (HR, 1.20; 95% CI, 0.48-3.01; P = 0.70), respectively. CONCLUSION Our real-world data in Japan showed that there was no significant difference in OS between the CCRT+D cohort and the CCRT cohort. High EDIC could be a risk for poor OS in patients treated with CCRT and consolidation durvalumab compared with those treated with CCRT.

Abstract
We present the observation of a charge-sign dependent solar modulation of galactic cosmic rays (GCRs) with the Calorimetric Electron Telescope onboard the International Space Station over 6 yr, corresponding to the positive polarity of the solar magnetic field. The observed variation of proton count rate is consistent with the neutron monitor count rate, validating our methods for determining the proton count rate. It is observed by the Calorimetric Electron Telescope that both GCR electron and proton count rates at the same average rigidity vary in anticorrelation with the tilt angle of the heliospheric current sheet, while the amplitude of the variation is significantly larger in the electron count rate than in the proton count rate. We show that this observed charge-sign dependence is reproduced by a numerical "drift model" of the GCR transport in the heliosphere. This is a clear signature of the drift effect on the long-term solar modulation observed with a single detector.

Abstract
BACKGROUND T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukaemia has distinct biological characteristics and a poorer prognosis than B-cell precursor acute lymphoblastic leukaemia. This trial aimed to reduce the rate of radiation and haematopoietic stem-cell transplantation (HSCT) while improving outcomes by adding nelarabine, intensified L-asparaginase, and protracted intrathecal therapy in the Berlin-Frankfurt-Münster (BFM)-type treatment. METHODS In this nationwide, multicenter, phase 2 trial, we enrolled patients with newly diagnosed T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (age <25 years at diagnosis) conducted by Japan Children's Cancer Group and Japan Adult Leukemia Study Group. Patients were stratified into standard-risk, high-risk, and very-high-risk groups according to prednisolone response, CNS status, and end-of-consolidation minimal residual disease. We used the Associazione Italiana di Ematologia Oncologia Pediatrica (AIEOP)-BFM-ALL 2000-backbone chemotherapy. Nelarabine (650 mg/m2 per day for 5 days) was given to high-risk and very high-risk patients. All patients received, until the measurement of end-of-consolidation minimal residual disease, an identical therapy schedule, which included the prednisolone pre-phase remission induction therapy with dexamethasone (10 mg/m2 per day, for 3 weeks [for patients <10 years] or for 2 weeks including a 7-day off interval [for patients ≥10 years]) instead of prednisolone, and consolidation therapy added with Escherichia coli-derived L-asparaginase. On the basis of the stratification, patients received different intensities of treatment; L-asparaginase-intensified standard BFM-type therapy for standard risk and nelarabine-added high risk BFM-type therapy for high risk. In the very high-risk group, patients were randomly assigned (1:1) to group A (BFM-based block therapy) and group B (another block therapy, including high-dose dexamethasone) stratified by hospital, age (≥18 years or <18 years), and end-of-induction bone marrow blast percentage of M1 (<5%) or M2 (≥5%, <25%)+M3 (≥25%). Cranial radiotherapy was limited to patients with overt CNS disease at diagnosis (CNS3; >5 white blood cells per μL with blasts) and patients with no evidence of CNS disease received protracted triple intrathecal therapy. Only very high-risk patients were scheduled to receive HSCT. The primary endpoint was 3-year event-free survival for the entire cohort and the proportion of patients with disappearance of minimal residual disease between randomly assigned groups A and B in the very high-risk group. Secondary endpoints were overall survival, remission induction rate, and occurrence of adverse events. 3 years after the completion of patient accrual, a primary efficacy analysis was performed in the full analysis set and the per-protocol set. This study is registered with the Japan Registry of Clinical Trials, jRCTs041180145. FINDINGS Between Dec 1, 2011, and Nov 30, 2017, of 349 eligible patients (median age 9 years [IQR 6-13]), 238 (68%) were male, and 28 (8%) patients had CNS3 status. 168 (48%) patients were stratified as standard risk, 103 (30%) as high risk, 39 (11%) as very high risk, and 39 (11%) as no risk (patients who had off protocol treatment before risk assessment. The composite complete remission (complete remission plus complete remission in suppression) rate after remission induction therapy was 89% (298 of 335 patients). HSCT was performed in 35 (10%) of 333 patients. With a median follow-up of 5·2 years (IQR 3·6-6·7), 3-year event-free survival was 86·4% (95% CI 82·3-89·7%) and 3-year overall survival was 91·3% (87·7-93·8%). The proportion of minimal residual disease disappearance was 0·86 (12 of 14 patients; 95% CI 0·57-0·98) in group A and 0·50 (6 of 12 patients, 0·21-0·79) in group B. Grade 3 peripheral motor neuropathy was seen in 11 (3%) of 349 patients and sensory neuropathy was seen in 6 (2%) patients. The most common grade 3 or worse adverse event was febrile neutropenia (294 [84%] of 349 patients). Treatment-related death occurred in three patients due to sepsis, gastric perforation, or intracranial haemorrhage during remission induction. INTERPRETATION The ALL-T11 protocol produced encouraging outcomes with acceptable toxicities despite limited cranial radiotherapy and HSCT use.

Abstract
We present the results of a direct measurement of the cosmic-ray helium spectrum with the CALET instrument in operation on the International Space Station since 2015. The observation period covered by this analysis spans from October 13, 2015, to April 30, 2022 (2392 days). The very wide dynamic range of CALET allowed for the collection of helium data over a large energy interval, from ∼40 GeV to ∼250 TeV, for the first time with a single instrument in low Earth orbit. The measured spectrum shows evidence of a deviation of the flux from a single power law by more than 8σ with a progressive spectral hardening from a few hundred GeV to a few tens of TeV. This result is consistent with the data reported by space instruments including PAMELA, AMS-02, and DAMPE and balloon instruments including CREAM. At higher energy we report the onset of a softening of the helium spectrum around 30 TeV (total kinetic energy). Though affected by large uncertainties in the highest energy bins, the observation of a flux reduction turns out to be consistent with the most recent results of DAMPE. A double broken power law is found to fit simultaneously both spectral features: the hardening (at lower energy) and the softening (at higher energy). A measurement of the proton to helium flux ratio in the energy range from 60 GeV/n to about 60 TeV/n is also presented, using the CALET proton flux recently updated with higher statistics.

Abstract
Angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma (AITL) is an intractable type of T-cell lymphoma. We and others have identified that the p.Gly17Val RHOA mutation is specifically identified in AITL. We herein report a patient whose condition deteriorated, resulting from massive pericardial effusion one month after undergoing autologous transplantation for AITL. He was diagnosed with cardiac tamponade caused by AITL recurrence in the presence of the p.Gly17Val RHOA mutation as well as T-lineage cells with an aberrant immune-phenotype in the pericardial effusion. This case suggests that a precision medicine approach by detecting the presence of a p.Gly17Val RHOA mutation is useful for the management of AITL.

Abstract
Sequencing technology has identified aplastic anemia (AA) not only as an autoimmune bone marrow failure syndrome, but also as a clonal hematopoietic disease. Here, we present a case in which an ASXL1-mutated clone was predominantly expanded during the treatment of AA. A 58-year-old man with chronic glomerulonephritis on maintenance hemodialysis presented with pancytopenia. The findings of bone marrow biopsy indicated a hypoplastic bone marrow. Magnetic resonant imaging showed fatty changes in the bone marrow. The patient was eventually diagnosed with severe AA. He was treated with anti-human thymocyte globulin, cyclosporine, granulocyte colony-stimulating factor, and the thrombopoietin receptor agonist (TPO-RA) eltrombopag. After switching to another TPO-RA, romiplostim, the neutrophil, reticulocyte, and platelet counts gradually improved, and blood transfusion was not needed 1 year after treatment. Mutational analyses revealed that reconstituted hematopoietic cells originated from the ASXL1-mutated clone. Nevertheless, the patient's blood cell counts remained normal 2 years after treatment.

Abstract
A 51-year-old man with the chief complaint of glove- and stocking-type dysesthesia for >3 years was diagnosed with Waldenström's macroglobulinemia (WM) based on IgM-type M-proteinemia, bone marrow infiltration of plasmacytoid B cells, multiple lymphadenopathies, and splenomegaly. A nerve conduction examination suggested demyelinating neuropathy. Serum anti-myelin-associated glycoprotein antibody was negative. Sural nerve biopsy showed myelin thinning, suggesting demyelination. Axonal damage and tumor cell infiltration in the intrafascicular epineurium were also observed. After chemotherapies with rituximab and bendamustine, M-proteinemia and lymphadenopathies disappeared. However, abnormalities in the nerve conduction examination and dysesthesia were only slightly alleviated. As articles describing patients with WM with peripheral nerve infiltration are limited, we report this case with a literature review.

Abstract
We present the measurement of the energy dependence of the boron flux in cosmic rays and its ratio to the carbon flux in an energy interval from 8.4 GeV/n to 3.8 TeV/n based on the data collected by the Calorimetric Electron Telescope (CALET) during ∼6.4 yr of operation on the International Space Station. An update of the energy spectrum of carbon is also presented with an increase in statistics over our previous measurement. The observed boron flux shows a spectral hardening at the same transition energy E_{0}∼200 GeV/n of the C spectrum, though B and C fluxes have different energy dependences. The spectral index of the B spectrum is found to be γ=-3.047±0.024 in the interval 25<E<200 GeV/n. The B spectrum hardens by Δγ_{B}=0.25±0.12, while the best fit value for the spectral variation of C is Δγ_{C}=0.19±0.03. The B/C flux ratio is compatible with a hardening of 0.09±0.05, though a single power-law energy dependence cannot be ruled out given the current statistical uncertainties. A break in the B/C ratio energy dependence would support the recent AMS-02 observations that secondary cosmic rays exhibit a stronger hardening than primary ones. We also perform a fit to the B/C ratio with a leaky-box model of the cosmic-ray propagation in the Galaxy in order to probe a possible residual value λ_{0} of the mean escape path length λ at high energy. We find that our B/C data are compatible with a nonzero value of λ_{0}, which can be interpreted as the column density of matter that cosmic rays cross within the acceleration region.

Abstract
Triple-negative essential thrombocythemia (ET) is a condition in which mutations in JAK2, CALR and MPL are all negative. Transformation to acute myeloid leukemia may occur during the course of ET, while B-acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL) is rare. We experienced a case diagnosed as B-ALL during the course of triple-negative ET. Notably, cytoreduction was required for the excessive increase in blood cells during the bone marrow recovery period after chemotherapies. Whole-exome sequencing identified 17 somatic mutations: 9 were identified in both ET and B-ALL samples, while 8 were specific to B-ALL, suggesting that these 8 might have caused the transformation.

Abstract
A precise measurement of the cosmic-ray proton spectrum with the Calorimetric Electron Telescope (CALET) is presented in the energy interval from 50 GeV to 60 TeV, and the observation of a softening of the spectrum above 10 TeV is reported. The analysis is based on the data collected during ∼6.2 years of smooth operations aboard the International Space Station and covers a broader energy range with respect to the previous proton flux measurement by CALET, with an increase of the available statistics by a factor of ∼2.2. Above a few hundred GeV we confirm our previous observation of a progressive spectral hardening with a higher significance (more than 20 sigma). In the multi-TeV region we observe a second spectral feature with a softening around 10 TeV and a spectral index change from -2.6 to -2.9 consistently, within the errors, with the shape of the spectrum reported by DAMPE. We apply a simultaneous fit of the proton differential spectrum which well reproduces the gradual change of the spectral index encompassing the lower energy power-law regime and the two spectral features observed at higher energies.

Abstract
Blazars are active galactic nuclei (AGN) with relativistic jets whose non-thermal radiation is extremely variable on various timescales1-3. This variability seems mostly random, although some quasi-periodic oscillations (QPOs), implying systematic processes, have been reported in blazars and other AGN. QPOs with timescales of days or hours are especially rare4 in AGN and their nature is highly debated, explained by emitting plasma moving helically inside the jet5, plasma instabilities6,7 or orbital motion in an accretion disc7,8. Here we report results of intense optical and γ-ray flux monitoring of BL Lacertae (BL Lac) during a dramatic outburst in 2020 (ref. 9). BL Lac, the prototype of a subclass of blazars10, is powered by a 1.7 × 108 MSun (ref. 11) black hole in an elliptical galaxy (distance = 313 megaparsecs (ref. 12)). Our observations show QPOs of optical flux and linear polarization, and γ-ray flux, with cycles as short as approximately 13 h during the highest state of the outburst. The QPO properties match the expectations of current-driven kink instabilities6 near a recollimation shock about 5 parsecs (pc) from the black hole in the wake of an apparent superluminal feature moving down the jet. Such a kink is apparent in a microwave Very Long Baseline Array (VLBA) image.

Abstract
Vanishing bile duct syndrome (VBDS) is a rare hepatic disorder which leads to liver failure as a result of progressive destruction of the intrahepatic bile ducts. There are no treatment modalities for VBDS itself and severe hepatic dysfunction restricts the treatment of underlying diseases. We safely treated a case of classic Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) with VBDS using brentuximab vedotin (BV). The patient was treated with 5 cycles of reduced BV and a partial metabolic response was obtained. Moreover, a standard dose of BV for another 5 cycles was accomplished with minimal adverse events. Our experience indicates that BV could be a treatment option for classic HL with VBDS.

Abstract
Autoimmune and complement-related hematological side effects have been observed with messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) vaccines. Here, we report the incidence of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) vaccine-induced hemolysis in patients with paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH). We reviewed the medical records of seventeen patients with PNH visiting the University of Tsukuba Hospital who had received two doses of the SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccine between May 2021 and November 2021. Twelve patients were being treated with complement inhibitors. The median age of all patients was 62 years (range 29–89 years).; six were males and eleven were females. Fourteen patients received the BNT162b2 vaccine (Pfizer/BioNTech) and three received the mRNA-1273 vaccine (Moderna). The median percentages of PNH clones in erythrocytes and granulocytes were 37.61% (range 8.11–85.71%) and 59.73% (range 3.76–97.82%), respectively. Of the twelve patients receiving complement inhibitors, only one had a hemolytic reaction after vaccination, but it did not meet the definition of breakthrough hemolysis. By contrast, hemolytic attacks were observed in two of the five untreated patients with PNH, and one of them required a blood transfusion. Appropriate administration of complement inhibitors to patients with PNH may prevent hemolysis induced by SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccination.

Abstract
Objective Graft failure (GF) is a life-threatening complication of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). A standardized conditioning regimen and an appropriate graft source of salvage HSCT for GF have not yet been established. Some case series have shown good hematopoietic recoveries after salvage HSCT using a short-term reduced-intensity preparative regimen consisting of fludarabine (30-90 mg/m2), cyclophosphamide (2 g/m2), and total-body irradiation (2 Gy). However, the dose of fludarabine has varied in these reports based on the clinical condition of the patients, resulting in very limited experiences with each dose of fludarabine. Methods We retrospectively analyzed 10 patients who developed GF after allogeneic HSCT and underwent salvage cord blood transplantation (CBT) using the above-mentioned conditioning regimen with a fixed dose (90 mg/m2) of fludarabine. Results Eight patients (80.0%) achieved neutrophil engraftment within 30 days from salvage HSCT with a median of 21 (range, 17-23) days. The 1-year overall survival (OS) rate after the salvage HSCT was 50.0%, and the median OS was 281 (range, 23-1,638) days. Cumulative incidences of non-relapse mortality and relapse at 1 year were 50.0% and 10.0%, respectively. Conclusion CBT using this short-term reduced-intensity conditioning regimen may be a promising salvage therapy for GF.

Abstract
The relative abundance of cosmic ray nickel nuclei with respect to iron is by far larger than for all other transiron elements; therefore it provides a favorable opportunity for a low background measurement of its spectrum. Since nickel, as well as iron, is one of the most stable nuclei, the nickel energy spectrum and its relative abundance with respect to iron provide important information to estimate the abundances at the cosmic ray source and to model the Galactic propagation of heavy nuclei. However, only a few direct measurements of cosmic-ray nickel at energy larger than ∼3 GeV/n are available at present in the literature, and they are affected by strong limitations in both energy reach and statistics. In this Letter, we present a measurement of the differential energy spectrum of nickel in the energy range from 8.8 to 240 GeV/n, carried out with unprecedented precision by the Calorimetric Electron Telescope (CALET) in operation on the International Space Station since 2015. The CALET instrument can identify individual nuclear species via a measurement of their electric charge with a dynamic range extending far beyond iron (up to atomic number Z=40). The particle's energy is measured by a homogeneous calorimeter (1.2 proton interaction lengths, 27 radiation lengths) preceded by a thin imaging section (3 radiation lengths) providing tracking and energy sampling. This Letter follows our previous measurement of the iron spectrum [1O. Adriani et al. (CALET Collaboration), Phys. Rev. Lett. 126, 241101 (2021).PRLTAO0031-900710.1103/PhysRevLett.126.241101], and it extends our investigation on the energy dependence of the spectral index of heavy elements. It reports the analysis of nickel data collected from November 2015 to May 2021 and a detailed assessment of the systematic uncertainties. In the region from 20 to 240 GeV/n our present data are compatible within the errors with a single power law with spectral index -2.51±0.07.

Abstract
NUP98::DDX10 is a rare fusion gene associated with acute myeloid leukemia (AML), for which the prognosis and indication for allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation are unknown. A 48-year-old woman was diagnosed with AML harboring NUP98::DDX10. The results of quantitative RT-PCR of the fusion mRNA as a minimal residual disease (MRD) marker guided the treatment. In August 2019, the patient achieved hematological remission following standard remission induction therapy with idarubicin and cytarabine. After four cycles of consolidation therapies, MRD was detected, and she underwent allogeneic stem cell transplantation in May 2020. As MRD persisted in June, the immunosuppressant was stopped and three cycles of azacitidine were administered. Despite this, a hematological relapse occurred in January 2021 that was resistant to high-dose cytarabine and an investigational agent. She died as a result of the disease's progression. Thus, a second thought should be given to the timing of transplantation, the bridging, and the intervention for relapse after transplantation. The cases must be accumulated.

Abstract
Enantiodivergence is an important concept in asymmetric catalysis that enables access to both enantiomers of a product relying on the same chiral source as reagent. This strategy is particularly appealing as an alternate approach when only one enantiomer of the required chiral ligand is readily accessible but both enantiomers of the product are desired. Despite the potential significance, general catalytic methods to effectively reverse enantioselectivity by changing an achiral reaction parameter remain underdeveloped. Herein we report our studies focused on elucidating the origin of metal-controlled enantioselectivity reversal in Lewis acid-catalysed Michael additions. Rigorous experimental and computational investigations reveal that specific Lewis and Brønsted acid interactions between the substrate and ligand change depending on the ionic radius of the metal catalyst, and are key factors responsible for the observed enantiodivergence. This holds potential to further our understanding of and facilitate the design of future enantiodivergent transformations. Enantiodivergence is an important concept in asymmetric catalysis that enables access to both enantiomers of a product relying on the same chiral source as reagent.![]()

Abstract
Immune cells harboring somatic mutations reportedly infiltrate cancer tissues in patients with solid cancers and accompanying clonal hematopoiesis. Loss‐of‐function TET2 mutations are frequently observed in clonal hematopoiesis in solid cancers. Here, using a mouse lung cancer model, we evaluated the activity of Tet2‐deficient immune cells in tumor tissues. Myeloid‐specific Tet2 deficiency enhanced tumor growth in mice relative to that seen in controls. Single‐cell sequencing analysis of immune cells infiltrating tumors showed relatively high expression of S100a8/S100a9 in Tet2‐deficient myeloid subclusters. In turn, treatment with S100a8/S100a9 promoted Vegfa production by cancer cells, leading to a marked increase in the tumor vasculature in Tet2‐deficient mice relative to controls. Finally, treatment of Tet2‐deficient mice with an antibody against Emmprin, a known S100a8/S100a9 receptor, suppressed tumor growth. These data suggest that immune cells derived from TET2‐mutated clonal hematopoiesis exacerbate lung cancer progression by promoting tumor angiogenesis and may provide a novel therapeutic target for lung cancer patients with TET2‐mutated clonal hematopoiesis.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) is an effective therapeutic modality for patients with cardiogenic shock (CS) including STEMI. The VA-ECMO maintains end-organ perfusion, however, it significantly increases damaged left ventricular (LV) afterload. Combined treatment of VA-ECMO and a micro-axial Impella pump, ECPELLA, simultaneously provides systemic circulatory support and LV loading reduction (LV unloading). Studies in ischemic animal models displayed that LV unloading reduced myocardial size. However, it remains unknown whether LV unloading effect by ECPELLA during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) can reduce myocardial damage in human STEMI patients with severe cardiogenic shock.
Purpose
This study was to assess whether PCI on ECPELLA support can reduce myocardial damage in STEMI patients with severe cardiogenic shock.
Methods
Sixteen consecutive patients with STEMI and lethal CS (SCAI stage E) were enrolled. All patients suffered from cardiac arrest. Fifteen patients (94%) underwent extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation using VA-ECMO. From October 2018 to November 2019, PCI was carried out on VA-ECMO support and the mechanical circulatory support (MCS) modality during PCI was switched to ECPELLA since December 2019. There were 8 patients who underwent PCI on ECPELLA support (ECPELLA-PCI) and 8 patients who underwent PCI on single VA-ECMO support (ECMO-PCI). All patients in ECMO-PCI group were escalated to ECPELLA after PCI. Therefore, the difference between groups was timing of LV unloading, i.e., pre-PCI or post-PCI condition. We assessed total MCS flow during PCI, and peak and time course changes in CK-MB levels from days 0 to 3.
Results
There were no significant differences in age, rate of male sex, body surface area, shockable rhythm, serum lactate levels, and door to MCS time. Patients in ECPELLA-PCI had significantly longer door to recanalization time (73min in ECPELLA vs. 49min in VA-ECMO, p<0.05), and higher total MCS flow during PCI (3.1 L/min/sqM vs. 2.0 L/min/sqM, p<0.05). Peak and the area under the curves (AUC) from day 0 to day 3 of CK-MB in ECPELLA-PCI were significantly lower than ECMO-PCI group (peak CK-MB 120 vs. 524 IU/L and CK-MB AUC 143 vs. 464 IU/L*Day, respectively, p<0.05). While all patients received red blood cell (RBC) and plasma (PL) transfusions, ECPELLA-PCI required larger amount of RBC and PL transfusions (p<0.05).
Conclusion
The ECPELLA-PCI appeared to reduce myocardial damage shown by peak and AUC of CK-MB levels. Lager amount of blood transfusion is a major drawback of this treatment modality. Further studies are necessary whether ECPELLA-PCI is an effective revascularization approach for myocardial damage reduction with favorable mid- and long-term outcome in patients with STEMI with severe cardiogenic shock.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
In Japanese guidelines, target value of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) <100mg/dL is recommended as standard management for secondary prevention of coronary artery disease. On the other hand, the guidelines also state that LDL-C targeting <70mg/dL should be considered in high-risk patients. However, the effectiveness of strict LDL-C management in the prevention of long-term coronary event recurrence in Japanese patients remains unclear.
Purpose
The purpose of the present study was to evaluate whether the strict management of LDL-C targeting <70 mg/dL was effective to prevent recurrence of acute coronary syndrome (ACS) than standard management in patients with previous percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).
Methods
From January 2007 to August 2020, we performed coronary angiography in 359 patients with previous PCI who were suspected of having signs of recurrent cardiac ischemia. Patients were stratified into three groups according to achieved LDL-C value; <70mg/dL (n=57), 70 to <100mg/dL (n=135) and ≥100mg/dL (n=167). In addition, patients who had previous ACS and/or diabetes mellitus were defined as high-risk group, and sub-analysis by their achieved LDL-C values was performed in high-risk group and non-high-risk group. Endpoint was recurrence of ACS. Moreover, risk factors associated with recurrent-ACS were examined in patients with LDL-C <100 mg/dL.
Results
After follow-up (median 6.1 years), 99 patients (28%) had recurrent-ACS. Recurrent-ACS was significantly lower in patients with LDL-C <70mg/dL than LDL-C 70 to <100mg/dL and LDL-C ≥100mg/dL (p<0.01 and p<0.001, respectively). In sub-analysis, high-risk group with LDL-C <70 mg/dL had lower incidence of recurrent-ACS than LDL-C 70 to <100 mg/dL (p=0.03). Similar tendency was found in non-high-risk group (p=0.08). There was no difference of recurrent-ACS between high-risk group and non-high-risk group in patients with LDL-C <70mg/dL (p=0.41). Moreover, in patients with achieved LDL-C <100mg/dL (n=192), multivariate analysis identified that LDL-C (HR: 1.032, p<0.01) and HbA1c (HR: 1.330, p<0.01) were independent predictors of recurrent-ACS. In these patients, whether or not they were in the high-risk group was not a significant predictor (p=0.61).
Conclusions
Strict management of LDL-C targeting <70 mg/dL should be considered for a wider range of Japanese patients as well as for Westerners to prevent recurrence of ACS in secondary prevention.

Abstract
Background In the resting conditions, narrowing the window of coronary pressure measurements from the whole cardiac cycle to diastole improves diagnostic performance of coronary pressure–derived physiological index. However, whether this also applies to the hyperemic conditions has not yet been thoroughly evaluated. Objectives The purpose of this study was to assess whether diastolic fractional flow reserve (diastolic FFR) has better diagnostic performance in identifying ischemia-causing coronary lesions than conventional FFR in a prospective, multicenter, and independent core laboratory–based environment. Methods In this prospective multicenter registry at 29 Japanese centers, we compared the diagnostic performance of FFR, diastolic FFR, resting distal to aortic coronary pressure (Pd/Pa), and diastolic pressure ratio (dPR) using myocardial perfusion scintigraphy (MPS) as the reference standard in 378 patients with single-vessel coronary disease. Results Inducible myocardial ischemia was found on MPS in the relevant myocardial territory of the target vessel in 85 patients (22%). In the receiver-operating curve analyses, diastolic FFR had comparable area under the curve (AUC) compared with FFR (AUCdiastolic FFR: 0.66; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.58-0.73, vs AUCFFR: 0.66; 95% CI: 0.58-0.74, P = 0.624). FFR and diastolic FFR showed significantly larger AUCs than resting Pd/Pa (0.62; 95% CI: 0.54-0.70; P = 0.033 and P = 0.046) but did not show significantly larger AUCs than dPR (0.62; 95% CI: 0.55-0.70; P = 0.102 and P = 0.113). Conclusions Diastolic FFR showed a similar diagnostic performance to FFR as compared with MPS. This result reaffirms the use of FFR as the most accurate invasive physiological lesion assessment.

Abstract
The Calorimetric Electron Telescope (CALET), in operation on the International Space Station since 2015, collected a large sample of cosmic-ray iron over a wide energy interval. In this Letter a measurement of the iron spectrum is presented in the range of kinetic energy per nucleon from 10 GeV/n to 2.0 TeV/n allowing the inclusion of iron in the list of elements studied with unprecedented precision by space-borne instruments. The measurement is based on observations carried out from January 2016 to May 2020. The CALET instrument can identify individual nuclear species via a measurement of their electric charge with a dynamic range extending far beyond iron (up to atomic number Z=40). The energy is measured by a homogeneous calorimeter with a total equivalent thickness of 1.2 proton interaction lengths preceded by a thin (3 radiation lengths) imaging section providing tracking and energy sampling. The analysis of the data and the detailed assessment of systematic uncertainties are described and results are compared with the findings of previous experiments. The observed differential spectrum is consistent within the errors with previous experiments. In the region from 50 GeV/n to 2 TeV/n our present data are compatible with a single power law with spectral index -2.60±0.03.

Abstract
PURPOSE Synthetic non-absorbable mesh is used for elective inguinal hernia repair but is not commonly used for incarcerated or strangulated inguinal hernia requiring enterectomy to reduce the risk of surgical-site infection. This study aimed to evaluate the safety of synthetic non-absorbable mesh repair in patients with incarcerated or strangulated inguinal hernia requiring enterectomy versus non-mesh repair. METHODS We analyzed patients with incarcerated or strangulated inguinal hernia with enterectomy from April 2012 to March 2017 using a nationwide inpatient database in Japan. We conducted overlap propensity score-weighted analyses to compare surgical-site infection (SSI), duration of anesthesia, antibiotic use at > 3 days after surgery, postoperative hospital stay, and 30 day readmission. Two sensitivity analyses were performed. First, we compared the proportions of patients requiring wound culture at ≥ 3 days after surgery. Second, we performed overlap propensity score-weighted logistic regression analyses for surgical-site infection. RESULTS We identified 668 eligible patients, comprising 223 patients with mesh repair and 445 with non-mesh repair. Overlap propensity score-weighted analyses showed no significant differences between the mesh repair and non-mesh repair groups for SSI (2.5 vs. 2.8%, P = 0.79). Secondary outcomes did not differ significantly between the groups. Proportion of wound culture at ≥ 3 days after surgery was similar in the two groups (11.1 vs. 14.6%, P = 0.18). Logistic regression analysis showed no significant association between mesh repair and SSI (odds ratio, 0.93; 95% confidence interval, 0.34-2.57). CONCLUSION Synthetic non-absorbable mesh use may be safe for incarcerated or strangulated inguinal hernia requiring enterectomy.

Abstract
Insight into the mechanism of a safe, simple, and inexpensive phosphoric acid (H3PO4)-catalyzed acylation of alcohols with acid anhydrides is described. The corresponding in situ-generated diacylated mixed anhydrides, unlike traditionally proposed monoacylated mixed anhydrides, are proposed as the active species. In particular, the diacylated mixed anhydrides act as efficient catalytic acyl transfer reagents rather than as Brønsted acid catalysts simply activating acid anhydrides. Remarkably, highly efficient phosphoric acid (1-3 mol %)-catalyzed acylation of alcohols with acid anhydrides was achieved and a 23 g scale synthesis of an ester was demonstrated. Also, phosphoric acid catalyst was effective for synthetically useful esterification from carboxylic acids, alcohols, and acid anhydride. Moreover, with regard to recent developments in chiral 1,1'-bi-2-naphthol (BINOL)-derived phosphoric acid diester catalysts toward asymmetric kinetic resolution of alcohols by acylation, some phosphate diesters were examined. As a result, a 31P NMR study and a kinetics study strongly supported not only the acid-base cooperative mechanism as previously proposed by other researchers but also the mixed anhydride mechanism as presently proposed by us.

Abstract
Background RCTs are considered the standard in surgical research, whereas case-matched studies and propensity score matching studies are conducted as an alternative option. Both study designs have been used to investigate the potential superiority of robotic surgery over laparoscopic surgery for rectal cancer. However, no conclusion has been reached regarding whether there are differences in findings according to study design. This study aimed to examine similarities and differences in findings relating to robotic surgery for rectal cancer by study design. Methods A comprehensive literature search was conducted using PubMed, Scopus, and Cochrane CENTRAL to identify RCTs, case-matched studies, and cohort studies that compared robotic versus laparoscopic surgery for rectal cancer. Primary outcomes were incidence of postoperative overall complications, incidence of anastomotic leakage, and postoperative mortality. Meta-analyses were performed for each study design using a random-effects model. Results Fifty-nine articles were identified and reviewed. No differences were observed in incidence of anastomotic leakage, mortality, rate of positive circumferential resection margins, conversion rate, and duration of operation by study design. With respect to the incidence of postoperative overall complications and duration of hospital stay, the superiority of robotic surgery was most evident in cohort studies (risk ratio (RR) 0.83, 95 per cent c.i. 0.74 to 0.92, P < 0.001; mean difference (MD) –1.11 (95 per cent c.i. –1.86 to –0.36) days, P = 0.004; respectively), and least evident in RCTs (RR 1.12, 0.91 to 1.38, P = 0.27; MD –0.28 (–1.44 to 0.88) days, P = 0.64; respectively). Conclusion Results of case-matched studies were often similar to those of RCTs in terms of outcomes of robotic surgery for rectal cancer. However, case-matched studies occasionally overestimated the effects of interventions compared with RCTs.

Abstract
Cytokine release syndrome (CRS), occurring in more than 70% of HLA-haploidentical hematopoietic stem-cell transplantations with post-transplant cyclophosphamide (PT/CY-haplo), can lead to hemodynamic instability and worsen clinical outcomes. A calcineurin inhibitor is initiated after cyclophosphamide administration in the commonly used PT/CY regimens. Here, we conducted a phase I/II, prospective, single-center trial of PT/CY-haplo to evaluate the safety and efficacy of cyclophosphamide on days 3 and 5 along with cyclosporin and mycophenolate mofetil started from day - 1. Thirty-five adults with hematologic malignancies were enrolled. Myeloablative and reduced-intensity conditioning were used in 25 and 10 patients, respectively. Graft sources were bone marrow in 11 patients and mobilized peripheral blood stem cells in 24 patients. Disease-free survival on day 100, the primary endpoint, was 86% (95% confidence interval (CI), 69-94), which was over the predefined threshold of 50%. Unexpectedly, only 20% (95% CI, 8.4-37) of patients developed fever of > 38 °C early after graft infusion, all CRS grade 1, and all of which resolved just after cyclophosphamide administration. The cumulative incidences of grades II-IV acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), III-IV acute GVHD, and moderate-severe chronic GVHD were 23% (95% CI, 11-38), 6% (95% CI, 1-17), and 11% (95% CI, 4-25), respectively. The 3-year overall survival rate was 49% (95% CI, 31-64). Our results suggest that administration of cyclosporine and mycophenolate mofetil prior to PT/CY can reduce the frequency and severity of CRS without increasing GVHD.

Abstract
In this paper, we present the measurement of the energy spectra of carbon and oxygen in cosmic rays based on observations with the Calorimetric Electron Telescope on the International Space Station from October 2015 to October 2019. Analysis, including the detailed assessment of systematic uncertainties, and results are reported. The energy spectra are measured in kinetic energy per nucleon from 10 GeV/n to 2.2 TeV/n with an all-calorimetric instrument with a total thickness corresponding to 1.3 nuclear interaction length. The observed carbon and oxygen fluxes show a spectral index change of ∼0.15 around 200 GeV/n established with a significance >3σ. They have the same energy dependence with a constant C/O flux ratio 0.911±0.006 above 25 GeV/n. The spectral hardening is consistent with that measured by AMS-02, but the absolute normalization of the flux is about 27% lower, though in agreement with observations from previous experiments including the PAMELA spectrometer and the calorimetric balloon-borne experiment CREAM.

Abstract
Immunosuppressive therapy (IST) is the first-line treatment for young patients with severe aplastic anemia (AA) when a human leucocyte antigen (HLA)-matched related donor (MRD) is unavailable. Fulminant AA (FAA) is defined as AA with a complete absence of neutrophils at presentation and no response to granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) treatment. Here we report a 38-year-old male FAA patient who underwent allogeneic stem cell transplantation from an HLA haplotype-mismatched donor as first-line treatment. The patient had no remarkable disease history and was referred to our hospital because of a peritonsillar abscess and severe pancytopenia. Bone marrow biopsy revealed marked hypocellularity without dysplasia. His neutrophil count remained 0.0×109/l following G-CSF administration, and he was diagnosed with FAA. His siblings were not MRDs, but his sister had haploidentical HLAs. After administering a conditioning regimen, the patient received a transplant of peripheral blood stem cells donated by his sister. Neutrophil engraftment was observed on post-transplant day 16, and he experienced acute graft-versus-host disease (grade I, skin stage 1), but no other complications were observed. Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation from an HLA haplotype-mismatched related donor may be a viable option for first-line treatment of FAA when an MRD is unavailable.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Extracorporeal Cardio-Pulmonary Resuscitation (E-CPR) is an effective tool for patients with refractory cardiac arrest (CA). Since VA-ECMO provides strong afterload, IABP is often used to increase left ventricular load. Recently, in Japan, the effectiveness of VA-ECMO in combination with IMPELLA, a forward flow mechanical circulatory support device (ECPELLA) is gaining attention.
Purpose
We investigated usefulness of ECPELLA in patients with refractory CA.
Method
We reviewed 133 patients that had E-CPR from January 2012 through January 2020 {mean age: 67±15 years, male 65%, Out of hospital Cardiac Arrest (OHCA) 35%, Acute coronary Syndrome (ACS) 54%}. We divided these patients into ECMO with IMPELLA (ECPELLA group), ECMO with IABP (IABP group) and ECMO alone (ECMO alone group). The primary endpoint is 30-day survival and good neurological prognosis defined as CPC (cerebral performance categories) 1 or 2.
Result
During the study period, of the 133 patients, there were 20 in the ECPELLA group, 78 in the IABP group, 35 in the ECMO alone group. There were no significant differences in age in all three groups. There were more males, shockable rhythm, OHCA and ACS in the ECPELLA and IABP groups compared to the ECMO alone group. But there was no significant difference between the ECPELLA and IABP groups. Compared with other groups, ECPELLA had the shortest time from cardiac arrest to ECMO placement. Regarding endpoints, the rate of 30-day survival and favorable neurological prognosis were higher in the ECPELLA group, followed by the IABP group and then the ECMO alone group. (ECPELLA: 55% vs. IABP: 23% vs. ECMO alone: 9%; P=0.0009, ECPELLA: 35% vs. IABP: 13% vs. ECMO alone: 9%; P=0.04) Next, Kaplan Meier analysis was performed to analyze 30-day all-cause mortality. The ECPELLA group had a significantly higher survival rate (P=0.01 by log-rank test). Multivariate cox proportional hazard analysis including the age, OHCA, shockable rhythm, ACS, Collapse-to-ECMO under 60 min revealed that the age (hazard ratio [HR], 1.28 (10 years increase), 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.08–1.53, P=0.004) and Collapse-to-ECMO under 60 min (HR, 0.37, 95% CI, 0.21–0.68, P=0.001) or ECPELLA (HR, 0.46, 95% CI, 0.20–0.694, P=0.03) were significantly associated with mortality.
Conclusion
ECPELLA used with E-CPR is an effective tool to improve mortality and neurologic status.
