Abstract
Tools for radiation exposure reconstruction are required to support the medical management of radiation victims in radiological or nuclear incidents. Different biological and physical dosimetry assays can be used for various exposure scenarios to estimate the dose of ionizing radiation a person has absorbed. Regular validation of the techniques through inter-laboratory comparisons (ILC) is essential to guarantee high quality results. In the current RENEB inter-laboratory comparison, the performance quality of established cytogenetic assays [dicentric chromosome assay (DCA), cytokinesis-block micronucleus assay (CBMN), stable chromosomal translocation assay (FISH) and premature chromosome condensation assay (PCC)] was tested in comparison to molecular biological assays [gamma-H2AX foci (gH2AX), gene expression (GE)] and physical dosimetry-based assays [electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR), optically or thermally stimulated luminescence (LUM)]. Three blinded coded samples (e.g., blood, enamel or mobiles) were exposed to 0, 1.2 or 3.5 Gy X-ray reference doses (240 kVp, 1 Gy/min). These doses roughly correspond to clinically relevant groups of unexposed to low exposed (0-1 Gy), moderately exposed (1-2 Gy, no severe acute health effects expected) and highly exposed individuals (>2 Gy, requiring early intensive medical care). In the frame of the current RENEB inter-laboratory comparison, samples were sent to 86 specialized teams in 46 organizations from 27 nations for dose estimation and identification of three clinically relevant groups. The time for sending early crude reports and more precise reports was documented for each laboratory and assay where possible. The quality of dose estimates was analyzed with three different levels of granularity, 1. by calculating the frequency of correctly reported clinically relevant dose categories, 2. by determining the number of dose estimates within the uncertainty intervals recommended for triage dosimetry (±0.5 Gy or ±1.0 Gy for doses <2.5 Gy or >2.5 Gy), and 3. by calculating the absolute difference (AD) of estimated doses relative to the reference doses. In total, 554 dose estimates were submitted within the 6-week period given before the exercise was closed. For samples processed with the highest priority, earliest dose estimates/categories were reported within 5-10 h of receipt for GE, gH2AX, LUM, EPR, 2-3 days for DCA, CBMN and within 6-7 days for the FISH assay. For the unirradiated control sample, the categorization in the correct clinically relevant group (0-1 Gy) as well as the allocation to the triage uncertainty interval was, with the exception of a few outliers, successfully performed for all assays. For the 3.5 Gy sample the percentage of correct classifications to the clinically relevant group (≥2 Gy) was between 89-100% for all assays, with the exception of gH2AX. For the 1.2 Gy sample, an exact allocation to the clinically relevant group was more difficult and 0-50% or 0-48% of the estimates were wrongly classified into the lowest or highest dose categories, respectively. For the irradiated samples, the correct allocation to the triage uncertainty intervals varied considerably between assays for the 1.2 Gy (29-76%) and 3.5 Gy (17-100%) samples. While a systematic shift towards higher doses was observed for the cytogenetic-based assays, extreme outliers exceeding the reference doses 2-6 fold were observed for EPR, FISH and GE assays. These outliers were related to a particular material examined (tooth enamel for EPR assay, reported as kerma in enamel, but when converted into the proper quantity, i.e. to kerma in air, expected dose estimates could be recalculated in most cases), the level of experience of the teams (FISH) and methodological uncertainties (GE). This was the first RENEB ILC where everything, from blood sampling to irradiation and shipment of the samples, was organized and realized at the same institution, for several biological and physical retrospective dosimetry assays. Almost all assays appeared comparably applicable for the identification of unexposed and highly exposed individuals and the allocation of medical relevant groups, with the latter requiring medical support for the acute radiation scenario simulated in this exercise. However, extreme outliers or a systematic shift of dose estimates have been observed for some assays. Possible reasons will be discussed in the assay specific papers of this special issue. In summary, this ILC clearly demonstrates the need to conduct regular exercises to identify research needs, but also to identify technical problems and to optimize the design of future ILCs.

Abstract
Translocation analysis using fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) is the method of choice for dose assessment in case of chronic or past exposures to ionizing radiation. Although it is a widespread technique, unlike dicentrics, the number of FISH-based inter-laboratory comparisons is small. For this reason, although the current Running the European Network of Biological and Physical retrospective Dosimetry (RENEB) inter-laboratory comparison 2021 was designed as a fast response to a real emergency scenario, it was considered a good opportunity to perform an inter-laboratory comparison using the FISH technique to gain further experience. The Bundeswehr Institute of Radiobiology provided peripheral blood samples from one healthy human volunteer. Three test samples were irradiated with blinded doses of 0, 1.2, and 3.5 Gy, respectively. Samples were then sent to the seven participating laboratories. The FISH technique was applied according to the standard procedure of each laboratory. Both, the frequency of translocations and the estimated dose for each sample were sent to the coordinator using a special scoring sheet for FISH. All participants sent their results in due time. However, although it was initially requested to send the results based on the full analysis, evaluating 500 equivalent cells, most laboratories only sent the results based on triage, with a smaller number of analyzed cells. In the triage analysis, there was great heterogeneity in the number of equivalent cells scored. On the contrary, for the full analysis, this number was more homogeneous. For all three samples, one laboratory showed outlier yields compared to the other laboratories. Excluding these results, in the triage analysis, the frequency of translocations in sample no. 1 ranged from 0 to 0.013 translocations per cell, and for samples no. 2 and no. 3 the genomic mean frequency were 0.27 ± 0.03 and 1.47 ± 0.14, with a coefficient of variation of 0.29 and 0.23 respectively. Considering only results obtained in the triage analysis for sample no. 1, all laboratories, except one, classified this sample as the non-irradiated one. For sample no. 2, excluding the outlier value, the mean reported dose was 1.74 ± 0.16 Gy indicating a mean deviation of about 0.5 Gy to the delivered dose of 1.2 Gy. For sample no. 3 the mean dose estimated was 4.21 ± 0.21 Gy indicating a mean deviation of about 0.7 Gy to the delivered dose of 3.5 Gy. In the frame of RENEB, this is the second FISH-based inter-laboratory comparison. The whole exercise was planned as a response to an emergency, therefore, a triage analysis was requested for all the biomarkers except for FISH. Although a full analysis was initially requested for FISH, most of the laboratories reported only a triage-based result. The main reason is that it was not clearly stated what was required before starting the exercise. Results show that most of the laboratories successfully discriminated unexposed and irradiated samples from each other without any overlap. A good agreement in the observed frequencies of translocations was observed but there was a tendency to overestimate the delivered doses. Efforts to improve the harmonization of this technique and subsequent exercises to elucidate the reason for this trend should be promoted.

Abstract
After large-scale radiation accidents where many individuals are suspected to be exposed to ionizing radiation, biological and physical retrospective dosimetry assays are important tools to aid clinical decision making by categorizing individuals into unexposed/minimally, moderately or highly exposed groups. Quality-controlled inter-laboratory comparisons of simulated accident scenarios are regularly performed in the frame of the European legal association RENEB (Running the European Network of Biological and Physical retrospective Dosimetry) to optimize international networking and emergency readiness in case of large-scale radiation events. In total 33 laboratories from 22 countries around the world participated in the current RENEB inter-laboratory comparison 2021 for the dicentric chromosome assay. Blood was irradiated in vitro with X rays (240 kVp, 13 mA, ∼75 keV, 1 Gy/min) to simulate an acute, homogeneous whole-body exposure. Three blood samples (no. 1: 0 Gy, no. 2: 1.2 Gy, no. 3: 3.5 Gy) were sent to each participant and the task was to culture samples, to prepare slides and to assess radiation doses based on the observed dicentric yields from 50 manually or 150 semi-automatically scored metaphases (triage mode scoring). Approximately two-thirds of the participants applied calibration curves from irradiations with γ rays and about 1/3 from irradiations with X rays with varying energies. The categorization of the samples in clinically relevant groups corresponding to individuals that were unexposed/minimally (0-1 Gy), moderately (1-2 Gy) or highly exposed (>2 Gy) was successfully performed by all participants for sample no. 1 and no. 3 and by ≥74% for sample no. 2. However, while most participants estimated a dose of exactly 0 Gy for the sham-irradiated sample, the precise dose estimates of the samples irradiated with doses >0 Gy were systematically higher than the corresponding reference doses and showed a median deviation of 0.5 Gy (sample no. 2) and 0.95 Gy (sample no. 3) for manual scoring. By converting doses estimated based on γ-ray calibration curves to X-ray doses of a comparable mean photon energy as used in this exercise, the median deviation decreased to 0.27 Gy (sample no. 2) and 0.6 Gy (sample no. 3). The main aim of biological dosimetry in the case of a large-scale event is the categorization of individuals into clinically relevant groups, to aid clinical decision making. This task was successfully performed by all participants for the 0 Gy and 3.5 Gy samples and by 74% (manual scoring) and 80% (semi-automatic scoring) for the 1.2 Gy sample. Due to the accuracy of the dicentric chromosome assay and the high number of participating laboratories, a systematic shift of the dose estimates could be revealed. Differences in radiation quality (X ray vs. γ ray) between the test samples and the applied dose effect curves can partly explain the systematic shift. There might be several additional reasons for the observed bias (e.g., donor effects, transport, experimental conditions or the irradiation setup) and the analysis of these reasons provides great opportunities for future research. The participation of laboratories from countries around the world gave the opportunity to compare the results on an international level.

Abstract
SARS-CoV-2 has evolved as several variants. Immunization to boost the Ab response to Spike antigens is effective, but similar vaccines could not enhance Ab efficacy enough. Effective Ab responses against the human ACE2 (hACE2)-mediated infection of the emerging SARS-CoV-2 variants are needed. We identified closed linear epitopes of the SARS-CoV-2 Spike molecule that induced neutralizing Abs (nAbs) against both S1-RBD, responsible for attachment to hACE2, and S2-HR1/2, in convalescents and vaccine recipients. They inhibited a pseudo-virus infection mediated by the hACE2 pathway. The epitope sequences included epitopes #7 (aa411-432), #11 (aa459-480) and #111 (aa1144-1161), in S1-RBD and S2-HR2. Epitope #111 was conserved in Wuhan and variant strains, whereas #7 and #11 were conserved in Wuhan carried mutations K417N and S477N/T478K in Omicron BA.4/5. These mutations were recognized by the original epitope-specific Abs. These epitopes in RBD and HR2 neither contained, nor overlapped with, those responsible for the antibody-dependent enhancement of the SARS-CoV-2 infection. The sublingual administration of multiple epitope-conjugated antigens increased the IgG and IgA Abs specific to the neutralizing epitopes in mice pre-immunized subcutaneously. The findings indicated that S1-RBD and S2-HR2 epitopes were responsible for pseudo-virus SARS-CoV-2 infections and that sublingual boosts with multiple epitope-conjugated antigens could enhance the protection by nAbs of IgG and IgA against infection by a wide range of variants.

Abstract
By acclimatizing CCR5-tropic tier 1B SHIV-MK1 to rhesus monkeys, a tier 2 SHIV-MK38 strain with neutralization resistance and high replication ability was generated. In this study, we generated SHIV-MK38C, a monkey-infectious consensus molecular clone of SHIV-MK38. Analysis using pseudotype viruses showed that MK38C was tier 1C because it lacked the N169D mutation, which is the most important mutation for neutralization resistance. MK38C harboring the N169D mutation became tier 2. However, the replication ability of SHIV-MK38C with N169D was low; more than 17 weeks elapsed before its detection in monkeys. Tier 1C MK38C was sensitive to a CD4 mimic. Therefore, SHIV-MK38C could be used to evaluate CD4 mimics in vivo.

Abstract
Macaque-tropic HIV-1 (HIV-1mt) variants have been developed to establish preferable primate models that are advantageous in understanding HIV-1 infection pathogenesis and in assessing the preclinical efficacy of novel prevention/treatment strategies. We previously reported that a CXCR4-tropic HIV-1mt, MN4Rh-3, efficiently replicates in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of cynomolgus macaques homozygous for TRIMCyp (CMsTC). However, the CMsTC challenged with MN4Rh-3 displayed low viral loads during the acute infection phase and subsequently exhibited short-term viremia. These virological phenotypes in vivo differed from those observed in most HIV-1-infected people. Therefore, further development of the HIV-1mt variant was needed. In this study, we first reconstructed the MN4Rh-3 clone to produce a CCR5-tropic HIV-1mt, AS38. In addition, serial in vivo passages allowed us to produce a highly adapted AS38-derived virus that exhibits high viral loads (up to approximately 106 copies ml-1) during the acute infection phase and prolonged periods of persistent viremia (lasting approximately 16 weeks postinfection) upon infection of CMsTC. Whole-genome sequencing of the viral genomes demonstrated that the emergence of a unique 15-nt deletion within the vif gene was associated with in vivo adaptation. The deletion resulted in a significant increase in Vpr protein expression but did not affect Vif-mediated antagonism of antiretroviral APOBEC3s, suggesting that Vpr is important for HIV-1mt adaptation to CMsTC. In summary, we developed a novel CCR5-tropic HIV-1mt that can induce high peak viral loads and long-term viremia and exhibits increased Vpr expression in CMsTC.

Abstract
UNLABELLED In patients with postmenopausal osteoporosis, prior osteoporosis treatment affected the bone mineral density increase of following treatment with 12 months of romosozumab, although it did not affect that of following treatment with 12 months of denosumab after romosozumab. PURPOSE To investigate the effects of prior osteoporosis treatment on the response to treatment with romosozumab (ROMO) followed by denosumab (DMAb) in patients with postmenopausal osteoporosis. METHODS In this prospective, observational, multicenter study, treatment-naïve patients (Naïve; n = 55) or patients previously treated with bisphosphonates (BP; n = 37), DMAb (DMAb; n = 45) or teriparatide (TPTD; n = 17) (mean age, 74.6 years; T-scores of the lumbar spine [LS] - 3.2 and total hip [TH] - 2.6) were switched to ROMO for 12 months, followed by DMAb for 12 months. Bone mineral density (BMD) and serum bone turnover markers were evaluated for 24 months. RESULTS A BMD increase was observed at 12 and 24 months in the following patients: Naïve (18.2% and 22.0%), BP (10.2% and 12.1%), DMAb (6.6% and 9.7%), and TPTD (10.8% and 15.0%) (P < 0.001 between the groups at both 12 and 24 months) in LS and Naïve (5.5% and 8.3%), BP (2.9% and 4.1%), DMAb (0.6% and 2.2%), and TPTD (4.3% and 5.4%) (P < 0.01 between the groups at 12 months and P < 0.001 at 24 months) in TH, respectively. The BMD increase in LS from 12 to 24 months was negatively associated with the levels of bone resorption marker at 24 months. Incidences of major fragility fractures for the respective groups were as follows: Naïve (5.5%), BP (16.2%), DMAb (11.1%), and TPTD (5.9%). CONCLUSIONS Previous treatment affected the BMD increase of following treatment with ROMO, although it did not affect that of following treatment with DMAb after ROMO.

Abstract
In the present study, we examined the effects of concurrent and staggered dosing of PG-soft ace-MP TM (PG), novel semi-solid enteral nutrients, on the pharmacokinetics of orally administered carbamazepine (CBZ) in rats due to the high possibility of drug interaction during the absorption process. The pharmacokinetic behavior of CBZ was considerably altered when administered concurrently with PG. The maximum serum CBZ concentration (Cmax) significantly decreased and the mean residence time (MRT) significantly increased. The elimination constant (ke) also significantly increased, but there were no significant changes in the area under the serum CBZ concentration versus time curve (AUC) and the time to reach Cmax (Tmax). However, these changes in the pharmacokinetic parameters were eliminated by waiting 20 min, the time interval equivalent to the Tmax described above, between CBZ administration and PG dosing. This study suggested that PG interferes with CBZ absorption from the digestive tract, although staggered administration of CBZ and PG prevented their interaction.

Abstract
Effective T cell induction is an important strategy in HIV-vaccine development. However, it has been indicated that vaccine-induced HIV-specific CD4+ T cells, the preferential targets of HIV infection, might increase viral acquisition after HIV exposure. We have recently developed an immunogen (CaV11), tandemly connected overlapping 11-mer peptides spanning the simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV) Gag capsid and Vif proteins, to selectively induce Gag- and Vif-specific CD8+ T cells but not CD4+ T cells. Here, we show protective efficacy of a CaV11-expressing vaccine against repeated intrarectal low-dose SIVmac239 challenge in rhesus macaques. Eight of the twelve vaccinated macaques were protected after eight challenges. Kaplan-Meier analysis indicated significant protection in the vaccinees compared to the unvaccinated macaques. Vaccine-induced Gag-specific CD8+ T cell responses were significantly higher in the protected than the unprotected vaccinees. These results suggest that classical CD8+ T cell induction by viral Env-independent vaccination can confer protection from intrarectal SIV acquisition, highlighting the rationale for this immunogen design to induce virus-specific CD8+ T cells but not CD4+ T cells in HIV-vaccine development.

Abstract
Background
Accurate prediction of mortality in heart failure (HF) patients is crucial for decision-making regarding HF therapies, but a strategy for the prediction of mortality in elderly HF patients has not been established. In addition, although favorable effects of comprehensive cardiac rehabilitation (CR) on clinical outcomes and functional status in HF patients have been demonstrated, a goal of comprehensive CR during hospitalization for reducing mortality remains unclear.

We examined whether assessment of basic activities of daily living (ADL) by the Barthel Index (BI), the most widely used tool for assessment of basic ADL, is useful for predicting all-cause mortality in elderly HF patients who received comprehensive CR.
Methods
This study was a single-center, retrospective and observational study. We retrospectively examined 413 HF patients aged ≥65 years (mean age, 78±7 years; 50% female) who were admitted to our institute for management of HF and received comprehensive CR during hospitalization. Functional status for performing basic ADL ability was assessed by the BI within 3 days before discharge. The clinical endpoint was all-cause death during the follow-up period.
Results
Of 413 HF patients, 116 patients (28%) died during a follow-up period of median 1.90-years (interquartile range, 1.20–3.23 years). Results of an adjusted dose-dependent association analysis showed that the hazard ratio (HR) of mortality increases in an almost linear fashion as the BI score decreases and that the BI score corresponding the hazard ratio of 1.0 is 85 (Figure A). To minimize the differences in potential confounding factors between patient with low BI (<85) and patients with high BI (≥85), inverse probability treatment weighting (IPTW) was calculated using propensity score. Kaplan-Meier survival curves, in which selection bias was minimized by use of IPTW for confounders, showed that patients with low BI (<85) had a higher mortality rate than did patients with high BI (≥85) (Figure B). In multivariate Cox regression analyses, low BI was independently associated with higher mortality after adjustment for predictors including brain natriuretic peptide and prior HF hospitalization (IPTW-adjusted HR, 1.75 [95% confidence interval, 1.03–2.98], p<0.001). Inclusion of the BI into the adjustment model improved the accuracy of prediction of mortality (continuous net reclassification improvement, 0.292, p=0.008; integrated discrimination improvement, 0.017, p=0.022).
Conclusion
A BI score of <85 at the time of discharge is associated with increased mortality independently of known prognostic markers, and achievement of functional status of a BI score ≥85 by comprehensive CR during hospitalization may contribute to a favorable outcome in elderly HF patients.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
A metabolomic study in the human heart suggested a pivotal role of amino acid (AA) metabolism in fatty acid oxidation, which is dysregulated in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and heart failure. We previously reported that aberrant up-regulation of AMP deaminase 3 (AMPD3) impairs cardiac energetics in T2DM hearts, and AMPD3 was recently shown to be activated by fasting and to promote AA metabolism and fatty acid oxidation in skeletal muscle. A sodium glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitor (SGLT2i) has been shown to augment systemic AA metabolism, but its effect on cardiac AA metabolism remains unknown.
Purpose
We hypothesized that AMPD3 has a role in AA and lipid metabolism in cardiomyocytes and that the protective effect of an SGLT2i in diabetic hearts is mediated by modification of AA and lipid metabolism.
Methods and results
Proteomic analyses of AMPD3 immunoprecipitates in rat hearts revealed that AMPD3 interacted with the E1α and E2 components of the BCKDH complex, a rate-limiting enzyme of branched-chain AA (BCAA) catabolism. Immunoblotting using subcellular fractions revealed that BCKDH localized not only in the mitochondria matrix but also in the cytosol and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and that AMPD3 interacted with BCKDH in the cytosol and ER. Despite comparable expression of BCKDH components and phosphorylation of E1α at Ser293, significant accumulation of BCAA was observed in T2DM rats (OLETF; 317±30 nmol/g) compared to that in control rats (LETO; 213±16 nmol/g), and the accumulation of BCAA was accompanied by up-regulation of AMPD3 in the cytosol and ER by 98% and 231%, respectively. In cardiomyocytes, disruption of BCAA catabolism by knockdown of BCKDH-E1α resulted in a 5.8-fold increase in AMPD3 at the transcriptional level and blunted lipid droplet biogenesis in response to a long-chain fatty acid challenge. Next, myocardial infarction (MI) was induced in LETO and OLETF pretreated with empagliflozin (10 mg/kg/day, 14 days) or a vehicle. Pathway analysis of cardiac metabolites revealed arginine biosynthesis and BCAA metabolism as the most significantly changed pathways with empagliflozin, with BCAA (791±187 nmol/g), glutamate, glutamine and urea being significantly increased. Empagliflozin restored myocardial ATP and survival after MI in OLETF to levels comparable to those in LETO. Electron microscopy showed a significantly higher prevalence of myocardium lipid droplets in OLETF, which was further increased by empagliflozin.
Conclusions
The results support the hypotheses that imbalance of extra-mitochondrial AMPD3-BCKDH interaction underlies dysregulated BCAA metabolism in T2DM hearts and that activation of cardiac AA metabolism by an SGLT2i normalizes fatty acid overload through sequestration into intracellular lipid droplets.

Abstract
Abstract
Background and aim
Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) regulates insulin secretion and also affords pleiotropic effects including protective effects on blood vessels. Multiple factors regulate GLP-1 secretion after meals, but a group of apparently healthy subjects showed blunted responses of GLP-1 secretion in our previous study. In this study, we examined the possibility that the reduced capacity of GLP-1 secretion is associated with increased extent of coronary artery stenosis in non-diabetic patients.
Methods and results
Non-diabetic patients who were admitted for coronary angiography without a history of coronary interventions were enrolled. Coronary artery stenosis was quantified by Gensini score (GS), and GS ≥10 was used as an outcome variable based on results of earlier studies indicating its predictive value for cardiovascular events. The patients (mean age, 66.5±8.8 years; 71% males, n=173) underwent oral 75 g-glucose tolerant tests for determination of glucose, insulin and active GLP-1 levels. The area under the curve of plasma active GLP-1 (AUC-GLP-1) was determined as an index of GLP-1 secretion capacity. AUC-GLP-1 was not correlated with fasting glucose, AUC-glucose, serum lipids, indices of insulin sensitivity or estimated glomerular filtration rate. In multivariate logistic regression analysis for GS ≥10, AUC-GLP-1 < median, age and hypertension were selected as explanatory variables, though fasting GLP-1 level was not selected.
Conclusion
The findings indicate significant association of reduced GLP-1 secretion capacity with increased extent of coronary artery stenosis in non-diabetic patients. A causal relationship between change in GLP-1 secretion capacity and coronary stenosis remains to be examined by a longitudinal study

Abstract
BACKGROUND A new coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) abruptly emerged in Wuhan, China, in 2019 and rapidly spread globally to cause the COVID-19 pandemic. AIM To examine the anti-SARS-CoV-2 activity of the potent disinfectant Cleverin, the major disinfecting component of which is chlorine dioxide (ClO2); and to compare the results with that of sodium hypochlorite in the presence or absence of 0.5% or 1.0% foetal bovine serum (FBS). METHODS Concentrated SARS-CoV-2 viruses were treated with various concentrations of ClO2 and sodium hypochlorite and 50% tissue culture infective dose was calcurated to evaluate the antiviral activity of each chemical. FINDINGS When SARS-CoV-2 viruses were treated with 0.8 ppm ClO2 or sodium hypochlorite, viral titre was decreased only by 1 log10 TCID50/mL in 3 min. However, the viral titre was decreased by more than 4 log10 TCID50/mL when treated with 80 ppm of each chemical for 10 s regardless of presence or absence of FBS. It should be emphasized that treatment with 24 ppm of ClO2 inactivated more than 99.99% SARS-CoV-2 within 10 s or 99.99% SARS-CoV-2 in 1 min in the presence of 0.5% or 1.0% FBS, respectively. By contrast, 24 ppm of sodium hypochlorite inactivated only 99% or 90% SARS-CoV-2 in 3 min under similar conditions. Notably, except for ClO2, the other components of Cleverin such as sodium chlorite, decaglycerol monolaurate, and silicone showed no significant antiviral activity. CONCLUSION Altogether, the results strongly suggest that although ClO2 and sodium hypochlorite are strong antiviral agents in absence of organic matter but in presence of organic matter, ClO2 is a more potent antiviral agent against SARS-CoV-2 than sodium hypochlorite.

Abstract
Because of their close biological similarity to humans, non-human primate (NHP) models are very useful for the development of induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-based cell and regenerative organ transplantation therapies. However, knowledge on the establishment, differentiation, and genetic modification of NHP-iPSCs, especially rhesus macaque iPSCs, is limited. We succeeded in establishing iPSCs from the peripheral blood of rhesus macaques (Rh-iPSCs) by combining the Yamanaka reprograming factors and two inhibitors (GSK-3 inhibitor [CHIR 99021] and MEK1/2 inhibitor [PD0325901]) and differentiated the cells into functional macrophages through hematopoietic progenitor cells. To confirm feasibility of the Rh-iPSC-derived macrophages as a platform for bioassays to model diseases, we knocked out TRIM5 gene in Rh-iPSCs by CRISPR-Cas9, which is a species-specific HIV resistance factor. TRIM5 knockout (KO) iPSCs had the same differentiation potential to macrophages as did Rh-iPSCs, but the differentiated macrophages showed a gain of sensitivity to HIV infection in vitro. Our reprogramming, gene editing, and differentiation protocols used to obtain Rh-iPSC-derived macrophages can be applied to other gene mutations, expanding the number of NHP gene therapy models.

Abstract
Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is a highly pathogenic zoonotic virus that spreads rapidly. In this work, we improve the hitherto existing neutralization assay system to assess SARS-CoV-2 inhibitors using a pseudo-typed lentivirus coated with the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein (LpVspike +) and angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2)-transfected cat Crandell–Rees feline kidney (CRFK) cells as the host cell line. Our method was 10-fold more sensitive compared to the typical human embryonic kidney 293T (HEK293T) cell system, and it was successfully applied to quantify the titers of convalescent antisera and monoclonal anti-spike antibodies required for pseudo virus neutralization. The 50% inhibition dilution (ID50) of two human convalescent sera, SARS-CoV-2 immunoglobulin G (IgG) and SARS-CoV-2 immunoglobulin M (IgM), which were 1:350 (±1:20) and 1:1250 (±1:350), respectively. The 50% inhibitory concentration (IC50) of the IgG, IgM and immunoglobulin A (IgA) anti-SARS-CoV-2 monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) against LpVspike(+) were 0.45 (±0.1), 0.002 (±0.001) and 0.004 (±0.001) µg mL−1, respectively. We also found that reagents typically used to enhance infection were not effective in the CFRK system. This methodology is both efficient and safe; it can be employed by researchers to evaluate neutralizing monoclonal antibodies and contribute to the discovery of new antiviral inhibitors against SARS-CoV-2.

Abstract
In eusocial insect colonies, non-reproductive workers often perform different tasks. Tasks of an individual worker are shifted depending on various factors, e.g., age and colony demography. Although a vitellogenin (Vg) gene play regulatory roles in both reproductive and non-reproductive division of labours in a honeybee, it has been shown that the insect Vg underwent multiple gene duplications and sub-functionalisation, especially in apical ant lineages. The regulatory roles of duplicated Vgs were suggested to change evolutionarily among ants, whereas such roles in phylogenetically basal ants remain unclear. Here, we examined the expression patterns of conventional Vg (CVg), Vg-like A, Vg-like B and Vg-like C, as well as Vg receptor, during the task shift in an age-dependent manner and under experimental manipulation of colony demography in a primitive ant Diacamma sp. Expressions of CVg and Vg-like A in a brain were associated with a nursing task. It is suggested that associations of brain expressions of these Vgs with worker tasks were acquired in the basal ant lineage, and that such Vg functions could have sub-functionalised in the derived ant lineage.

Abstract
CD4 mimics are small molecules that inhibit the interaction of gp120 with CD4. We have developed several CD4 mimics. Herein, hybrid molecules consisting of CD4 mimics with a long alkyl chain or a PEG unit attached through a self-cleavable linker were synthesized. In anti-HIV activity, modification with a PEG unit appeared to be more suitable than modification with a long alkyl chain. Thus, hybrid molecules of CD4 mimics, with PEG units attached through an uncleavable linker, were developed and showed high anti-HIV activity and low cytotoxicity. In investigation of pharmacokinetics in a rhesus macaque, a hybrid compound had a more effective PK profile than that of the parent compound, and intramuscular injection was a more useful administration route to maintain the high blood concentration of the CD4 mimic than intravenous injection. The presented hybrid molecules of CD4 mimics with a PEG unit would be practically useful when combined with a neutralizing antibody.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Despite accumulating evidence of a close association between orthopedic fractures and chronic heart failure (CHF), the clinical risk factors of osteoporosis, defined as reduction in bone mineral densities (BMDs), in CHF patients have not been systematically analyzed. In addition, the impact of osteoporosis on prognosis of CHF remains unclear.
Aims
We aimed to clarify the prevalence, clinical risk factors, and prognostic impact of osteoporosis in CHF patients.
Methods
We retrospectively examined 303 CHF patients (75 years, [interquartile range (IQR), 66–82 years]; 41% female). BMDs at the lumber spine, femoral neck, and total femur were measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA), and osteoporosis was diagnosed when BMD at any of the three sites was less than 70% of Young Adult Mean.
Results
The prevalence of osteoporosis in the CHF patients was 40%. Patients with osteoporosis were older (79 [IQR, 74–86] vs. 72 [IQR, 62–80] years), included a large percentage of females, had slower gait speed and had lower body mass index (BMI). Loop diuretics and warfarin were used more frequently and direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) were used less frequently in patients with osteoporosis than in patients without osteoporosis. Multivariate logistic regression analysis indicated that sex (odds ratio [OR] 5.07, 95% Confidence Interval [CI] 2.68–9.61, p<0.01), BMI (OR, 0.83; 95% CI, 0.75–0.91; p<0.01), gait speed (OR, 0.80; 95% CI, 0.70–0.92; p<0.01), loop diuretics use (OR, 2.52; 95% CI, 1.20–5.27; p=0.01) and no DOACs use (OR, 0.43; 95% CI, 0.19–0.96; p=0.04) were independently associated with osteoporosis. During the mean follow-up period of 290±254 days, 92 patients (30.4%) had adverse events. When patients with osteoporosis were divided into subgroups according to the number of sites with BMD of an osteoporosis level, Kaplan-Meier survival curves showed that the rate of adverse events (death and cardiovascular events) was higher in patients with osteoporotic BMD at two or more sites than in patients without osteoporosis (51% vs. 23%, p=0.03) (Figure). In multivariate Cox regression analyses, osteoporotic BMD at two or more sites was an independent predictor of adverse events after adjustment for age, sex, and NT-proBNP level (Hazard ratio, 1.74; 95% CI, 1.01–2.99; p=0.04).
Conclusion
The risk of osteoporosis may be increased in users of loop diuretics and may be decreased in users of DOACs in CHF patients. Extent of osteoporosis is a novel predictor of adverse events in CHF patients.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Unlike age, frailty is often not taken into account in treatment indications of Endovascular treatment (EVT). One of the reason is that there was little known the relationship between frailty and the outcome of EVT for super elderly patients with peripheral artery disease (PAD). We investigate impacts of frailty on the super elderly patient prognosis who underwent EVT.
Purpose
To investigate impacts of frailty on the super elderly patient prognosis who underwent EVT.
Methods
From August 2015 to July 2016, 335 consecutive patients who underwent EVT were enrolled in the I-PAD registry from 7 institutes in Nagano prefecture. Among them, we selected and analyzed 91 super elderly PAD patients (≥80 years-old) and divided them into two groups:those with moderate or higher frailty (Clinical Frailty Scale (CFS) ≥6, n=28) and those without (CFS ≤5, n=63). The primary endpoints were cardiovascular death and major adverse cardiovascular and limb events (MACLE), defined as a composite of cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, stroke, admission for heart failure, major amputation and revascularization.
Results
The median follow-up period was 2.7 years. Freedom rate from cardiovascular death and MACLE were significantly lower among patients with moderate or higher frailty than among those without (47.0% vs. 58.0%, P=0.03; 39.1% vs. 68.5%, P<0.01).
Conclusion
The prognosis of super elderly patients with moderate or higher frailty is worse than those without.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
We recently reported that upregulated AMP deaminase (AMPD), via reduction in the tissue adenine nucleotide pool, contributes to exacerbation of diastolic dysfunction under pressure overload in OLETF, a rat model of obese type 2 diabetes (T2DM). Upregulated AMPD also possibly promotes xanthine oxidase (XO)-mediated ROS production, since AMPD deaminases AMP to IMP, which is further converted to inosine, providing substrates of XO, hypoxanthine and xanthine. Here, we examined the hypothesis that inhibition of XO ameliorates the pressure overload-induced diastolic dysfunction by suppression of ROS-mediated mitochondrial dysfunction and/or vascular dysfunction in T2DM rats.
Methods and results
Metabolomic analyses revealed that levels of xanthine and uric acid in the LV myocardium were significantly higher by 37% and 51%, respectively, in OLETF than in LETO, non-diabetic control rats, under the condition of phenylephrine-induced pressure overloading (200–230 mmHg). Myocardial XO activity in OLETF was 57.9% higher than that in LETO, which may be attributed to 31% higher level of inosine, a positive regulator of XO, in OLETF than in LETO. The activity of XO was significantly attenuated by administration of topiroxostat, an XO inhibitor at 0.5 mg/kg/day for 14 days. Pressure volume loop analyses showed that the pressure overloading resulted in significantly higher LVEDP in OLETF than in LETO (18.3±1.5 vs. 12.2±1.3 mmHg, p<0.05, n=7), though LVEDPs at baseline were comparable in OLETF and LETO (5.6±0.4 vs. 4.7±0.7 mmHg). Treatment with topiroxostat significantly suppressed the pressure overload-induced elevation of LVEDP in OLETF (18.3±1.5 vs. 11.3±1.1 mmHg, p<0.05) but not in LETO. Under the condition of pressure overloading, Ea/Ees, an index for ventricular-arterial coupling, was higher in OLETF than in LETO (2.3±0.3 vs. 1.6±0.3, p<0.05), and it was also improved by topiroxostat in OLETF (1.2±0.2, p<0.05). Myocardial ATP content was lower in OLETF than in LETO (2966±400 vs. 1818±171 nmol/g wet tissue, p<0.05), and treatment with topiroxostat significantly restored the ATP level (2629±307 nmol/g wet tissue). The LV myocardium of OLETF under pressure overload showed significantly higher level of malondialdehyde and 4-hydroxynonenal, an indicator of lipid peroxidation, than that of LETO. Measurement of oxygen consumption rate by Seahorse XFe96 Analyzer in mitochondria isolated from LV tissues revealed that state 3 respiration was significantly suppressed in OLETF by 43% compared to LETO, and it was restored by treatment with topiroxostat.
Conclusion
Both activity and substrates of XO are increased in T2DM hearts, in which upregulation of AMPD may play a role. Inhibition of XO ameliorates pressure overload-induced diastolic dysfunction and improves ventricular-arterial coupling in diabetic hearts, most likely through protection of mitochondrial function from ROS-mediated injury.

Abstract
The aim of the present study was to examine changes in the expression and activity of P-glycoprotein (P-gp) in human hepatocellular carcinoma HepG2 cells after exposure to menthol, and their relationship to the cytotoxicity of and apoptotic responses to doxorubicin (DOX), a substrate of P-gp, in the cells. The expression of P-gp in HepG2 cells was significantly increased by menthol treatment. Intracellular accumulation of DOX in HepG2 cells was significantly lower in the menthol-treated group than in the control group, but this phenomenon was abolished in the presence of verapamil. Decreased cell viability by DOX was significantly attenuated by 24-h menthol treatment prior to DOX exposure, which coincided with the changes in mRNA expression of Bcl-xl and caspase-3. These results demonstrate that menthol causes hepatocellular carcinoma cells to acquire resistance to DOX by increasing its efflux through the upregulation of P-gp.

Abstract
Chimeric simian and human immunodeficiency viruses (SHIVs) are appropriate animal models for the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) because HIV has quite a narrow host range. Additionally, SHIVs that encode the HIV-1 Env protein and are infectious to macaques have many strains that show different pathogenesis, such as the highly pathogenic SHIV-KS661 and the less pathogenic SHIV-#64. Therefore, we used SHIVs to understand different aspects of AIDS pathogenesis. In a previous study, we established a mathematical model of in vivo early SHIV infection dynamics, which revealed the expected uninfected and infected dynamics in Rhesus macaques. In concrete, the number of uninfected CD4+ T cells in SHIV-KS661-infected Rhesus macaques decreased more significantly and rapidly than that of SHIV-#64 Rhesus macaques, and these Rhesus macaques did not any induce host immune response. In contrast, the number of uninfected CD4+ T cells in SHIV-#64-infected Rhesus macaques is maintained, and host immune response developed. Although we considered that the peak viral load might determine whether systemic CD4+ T cell depletion occurs or host immune responses develop, we could not investigate this because our model quantified only SHIV infection prior to the development of the pathogenicity or host immune responses. Therefore, we developed a new mathematical model to investigate why SHIV-#64 and SHIV-KS661 showed different long-term viral dynamics. We fitted our new model considering antibody responses to our experimental datasets that included antibody titers, CD4+ T cells, and viral load data. We performed a maximum likelihood estimation using a non-linear mixed effect model. From the results, we derived the basic reproduction numbers of SHIV-#64 and SHIV-KS661 from intravenous infection (IV) and SHIV-KS661 from intrarectal infection (IR), as well as the antiviral effects of antibodies against SHIV-#64(IV) and SHIV-KS661(IR). We found significant differences between the basic reproduction number of SHIV-#64(IV) or -KS661(IR) and that of SHIV-KS661(IV). We found no clear difference between the antiviral effects of SHIV-#64(IV) and SHIV-KS661(IR), and revealed that an antiviral effect more than 90% of that of maximum antibody responses was induced from initial antibody responses (i.e., antibody response just after its inducement). In conclusion, we found that the basic reproduction number, rather than SHIV strains determines whether systemic CD4+ T cell depletion develops, and the subsequent antibody responses occurs.

Abstract
Anti-retroviral therapy (ART) can inhibit HIV proliferation but not achieve virus eradication from HIV-infected individuals. Under ART-based HIV control, virus-specific CD8+ T-cell responses are often reduced. Here, we investigated the impact of therapeutic vaccination inducing virus-specific CD8+ T-cell responses under ART on viral control in a macaque AIDS model. Twelve rhesus macaques received ART from week 12 to 32 after simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV) infection. Six of them were vaccinated with Sendai virus vectors expressing SIV Gag and Vif at weeks 26 and 32, and Gag/Vif-specific CD8+ T-cell responses were enhanced and became predominant. All macaques controlled viremia during ART but showed viremia rebound after ART cessation. Analysis of in vitro CD8+ cell ability to suppress replication of autologous lymphocytes-derived SIVs found augmentation of anti-SIV efficacy of CD8+ cells after vaccination. In the vaccinated animals, the anti-SIV efficacy of CD8+ cells at week 34 was correlated positively with Gag-specific CD8+ T-cell frequencies and inversely with rebound viral loads at week 34. These results indicate that Gag-specific CD8+ T-cell induction by therapeutic vaccination can augment anti-virus efficacy of CD8+ cells, which may be insufficient for functional cure but contribute to more stable viral control under ART.

Abstract
Bovine leukemia virus (BLV) belongs to the genus, Deltaretrovirus of the family, Retroviridae and it is the causative agent of enzootic bovine leukosis. The prevalence of BLV in three provinces in the Red River Delta Region in the North of Vietnam, Hanoi, Vinhphuc and Bacninh was studied from April 2017 to June 2018. A total of 275 blood samples collected from cattle were used for serum isolation and DNA extraction. Of these samples, 266 sera were subjected to ELISA test for detecting antibody against BLV gp51 protein and 152 DNA samples were used to detect the 444 bp fragment corresponding to a part of the gp51 region of the env by nested PCR. The results showed that 16.5% (n=44) and 21.1% (n=32) of samples were positive for BLV gp51 antibody and BLV proviral DNA, respectively. Phylogenetic analysis of the partial (423 bp) and complete (913 bp) BLV env-gp51 gene indicated that Vietnamese strains were clustered into genotypes 1, 6 and 10 (G1, G6 and G10). Of those genotypes, G1 genotype was dominant; G6 strains were designated as G6e and G6f subgenotypes; the existence of genotype 10 was confirmed for the first time in Vietnam. The present study provides important information regarding the prevalence of BLV infection and genetic characteristics of BLV strains identified in Vietnam, contributing to promote the establishment of disease control and eradication strategies in Vietnam.

Abstract
A tier 2 SHIV-MK38 strain was obtained after two in vivo passages of tier 1 SHIV-MK1. SHIV-MK38#818, cloned from the MK38 strain, was neutralisation-resistant, like the parental MK38 strain, to SHIV-infected monkey plasma (MP), HIV-1-infected human pooled plasma (HPP), and KD247 monoclonal antibody (mAb) (anti-V3 gp120 env). We investigated the mechanisms underlying the resistance of #818, specifically the amino acid substitutions that confer resistance to MK1. We introduced amino acid substitutions in the MK1 envelope by in vitro mutagenesis and then compared the neutralisation resistance to MP, HPP, and KD247 mAb with #818 in a neutralisation assay using TZM-bl cells. We selected 11 substitutions in the V1, V2, C2, V4, C4, and V5 regions based on the alignment of env of MK1 and #818. The neutralisation resistance of the mutant MK1s with 7 of 11 substitutions in the V1, C2, C4, and V5 regions did not change significantly. These substitutions did not alter any negative charges or N-glycans. The substitutions N169D and K187E, which added negative charges, and S190N in the V2 region of gp120 and A389T in V4, which created sites for N-glycan, conferred high neutralisation resistance. The combinations N169D+K187E, N169D+S190N, and N169D+A389T resulted in MK1 neutralisation resistance close to that of #818. The combinations without 169D were neutralisation-sensitive. Therefore, N169D is the most important substitution for neutralisation resistance. This study demonstrated that although the V3 region sequences of #818 and MK1 are the same, V3 binding antibodies cannot neutralise #818 pseudovirus. Instead, mutations in the V2 and V4 regions inhibit the neutralisation of anti-V3 antibodies. We hypothesised that 169D and 190N altered the MK1 Env conformation so that the V3 region is buried. Therefore, the V2 region may block KD247 from binding to the tip of the V3 region.

Background
Although emerging evidence has indicated that sodium glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors restore impaired cardiac energetics in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), the underlying molecular mechanisms have yet to be established. Augmented utilization of ketone is one proposed hypothesis, but depletion of succinyl-CoA triggered by the conversion of ketone back to acetyl-CoA by SCOT (succinyl-CoA:3-oxoacid CoA transferase) may hamper oxidative capacity of the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle, which also requires succinyl-CoA. The recent finding that empagliflozin augments systemic amino acid metabolism in patients with T2DM led us to hypothesize that the anaplerotic effect of amino acid on the TCA cycle complements ketone oxidation.
Methods and Results
Myocardial infarction (MI) was induced in T2DM rats (OLETF) and control rats (LETO). Survival rate at 48 hours after MI was significantly lower in OLETF than in LETO (40% vs 84%), and empagliflozin treatment (10 mg/kg/day, 14 days) before MI improved the survival rate in OLETF to 70%. Metabolome analysis was performed using heart tissues from the non-infarct region 12 hours after MI. Using principal component analysis, data from 92 metabolites that were detected were compressed into 2 dimensions, and the first component (PC1) clearly separated empagliflozin-treated OLETF from non-treated LETO and OLETF. Analysis of factor loading of each metabolite for PC1 revealed that branched chain amino acids leucine, isoleucine and valine, the latter two of which can be oxidized to succynyl-CoA, and β-hydroxybutyrate were the top four metabolites that characterized empagliflozin treatment. Furthermore, in comparison to LETO, OLETF treated with empagliflozin showed 50% higher levels of glutamine and glutamate, both of which can replenish the TCA cycle at the level of α-ketoglutarate. In OLETF, empagliflozin significantly increased the TCA cycle intermediates citrate, cis-aconitate and malate by 74%, 119% and 59%, respectively. OLETF showed 86% higher lactate and 38% lower ATP than those in LETO, but levels of the metabolites were normalized by empagliflozin, suggesting improved glucose oxidation.
Conclusions
The present analyses showed that amino acid and ketone metabolism are metabolic pathways that are most affected by empagliflozin. Coordination of these "starvation-induced pathways" may underlie the favorable metabolic effect of empagliflozin in T2DM hearts.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
For repairing severe tricuspid regurgitation (TR) with leaflet tethering, our team employs spiral suspension procedure, in which papillary muscles (PMs) are approximated and suspended towards annulus by suture in addition to annuloplasty.
Purpose
To visualize subtricuspid apparatus and investigate its geometric change by the procedure, comparing with annuloplasty alone.
Methods
11 patients who underwent spiral suspension and 10 patients who underwent annuloplasty alone were studied. Using 3D dataset derived from transesophgeal echocardiography with transgastric approach, the distances between the mid septal annulus (point C) and the anterior PM tip (point A) and posterior PM (point P) were calculated. Also, annular perimeter, leaflet surface area and tenting height were measured
Results
In all cases, PM tips could be visualized and identified for the measurements. By spiral suspension, the distance CA and tenting height were significantly reduced. On the other hand, by annuloplasty alone, CA and tenting height were likely to be increased but statistically not significant.
Conclusions
Spiral suspension ameliorated leaflet tethering with relocating PMs. Annuloplasty alone reduced leaflet surface area, which indicates increase of coaptation surface. Interestingly, PM tip- annulus distance and tenting height were possibly increased by annuloplasty. Further investigation is need in large number.

Background
We have recently demonstrated that AMP deaminase (AMPD) is upregulated in OLETF, obese type 2 diabetic (T2DM) rats, and that the upregulated AMPD contributes to depletion of myocardial ATP at the time of pressure overload, leading to diastolic dysfunction. On the other hand, AMPD promotes the formation of IMP from AMP, and IMP is in turn further converted to hypoxanthine and xanthine, substrates of xanthine oxidase (XO), which produces uric acid with ROS as a byproduct. Based on these findings, we tested the hypothesis that inhibition of XO ameliorates the pressure overload-induced diastolic dysfunction in T2DM rats.
Methods and results
Metabolomic analyses of the left ventricular myocardium revealed that levels of myocardial hypoxanthine and xanthine were significantly higher by 30% and 28%, respectively, in OLETF than in LETO, non-diabetic control rats, under the condition of pressure overloading (200-230 mmHg) induced by phenylephrine infusion. Myocardial XO activity in OLETF was 57.9% higher than that in LETO, and the activity was significantly attenuated by oral administration of topiroxostat, an XO inhibitor, at 0.1-0.5 mg/kg/day for 14 days in a dose-dependent manner. Pressure volume loop analyses showed that the pressure overloading induced by phenylephrine infusion resulted in significantly higher LVEDP in OLETF than in LETO (18.3 ± 1.5 vs. 12.2 ± 1.3 mmHg, p < 0.05, n = 7), though LVEDPs at baseline were comparable in OLETF and LETO (5.6 ± 0.4 vs. 4.7 ± 0.7 mmHg). Treatment with topiroxostat significantly suppressed the pressure overload-induced elevation of LVEDP in OLETF (18.3 ± 1.5 vs. 11.3 ± 1.1 mmHg, p < 0.05) but not in LETO. Tau, the time constant of LV pressure decay, was significantly prolonged to 14.7 ± 0.7 ms (p < 0.05) by pressure overloading in OLETF but not in LETO, though baseline Tau values were similar in LETO and OLETF (6.1 ± 0.2 vs. 8.0 ± 0.4 ms). The prolongation of Tau by pressure overloading in OLETF was significantly attenuated by treatment with topiroxostat. Ea/Ees, an index for ventricular-arterial coupling, was higher in OLETF than in LETO (2.3 ± 0.3 vs. 1.6 ± 0.3, p < 0.05) under the condition of pressure overloading, and it was also improved by topiroxostat in OLETF (1.2 ± 0.2, p < 0.05). Myocardial ATP content was lower in OLETF than in LETO under the condition of pressure overloading (2966 ± 400 vs. 1818 ± 171 nmol/g wet tissue, p < 0.05), but treatment with topiroxostat significantly restored the ATP level (2629 ± 307 nmo/g wet tissue). Conclusion: In T2DM hearts, not only XO activity but also XO substrates are upregulated and upregulated AMPD may be involved in the upregulation. Inhibition of XO ameliorates pressure overload-induced diastolic dysfunction and improves ventricular-arterial coupling most likely through augmented ATP preservation.

From July 2015 to July 2016, 371 consecutive PAD patients who performed EVT were enrolled in I-PAD registry. We could conduct follow up survey 361 patients (446 lesions) and divided into 2 groups; with diabetes (185 patients, 226 lesions) or without diabetes (176 patients, 220 lesions) and analyzed. And among them,we selected 96 patients with frail and divided into 2 groups; with diabetes (49 patients, 70 lesions) or without diabetes (46 patients, 58 lesions) and analyzed. We defined frail patients as the patients with Clinical Frailty Scale 5 (mild frail) or higher. The primary end point was all-cause-death and major adverse limb events (MALE: TLR, TVR, major amputations) at 1 year.
Result
At 1 years in the patients group with diabetes, overall survival and freedom from MALE were significantly lower (81.7% vs 95.8% P<0.0001; 80.0% vs 94.6%, P<0.0001) than the group without diabetes.Among the patients with frail, between the patients group with diabetes and the group without, there is no significant differences in overall survival and freedom from MALE (88.2% vs 88.9% P=0.83; 80.7% vs 84.1%, P=0.55) at 5 years.
Conclusion
The prognosis of patients with diabetes after EVT was worse than the patient without. On the other hand, the prognosis of frail patients with diabetes after EVT was no difference with the frail patient without diabetes in this study.

Abstract
Introduction
In patients with critical limb ischemia (CLI) it is known that malnutrition, low BMI, inflammation and so on are prognostic factors. But, it is unclear whether left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) affects prognosis of CLI patients. So we investigated that LVEF affects prognosis of CLI patients.
Methods
From July 2015 to July 2016, 371 consecutive peripheral artery disease patients who performed endovascular treatment (EVT) were enrolled in I-PAD registry. 179 of them were patients with CLI. We could conduct follow up survey about 126 (age 75.5±11.1, men 63.5%) and divided two groups according to their LVEF (group with LVEF≤40%, n=13, group without LVEF≤40%, n=113). The primary end point was major adverse limb events (MALE: TLR, TVR, major amputations) and secondary end point was all-cause death.
Results
The median follow-up period was 11.5±6.7 months. The 18 months MALE rate was significant higher in the group with low LVEF than group without low LVEF (76.9% vs 37.2% p<0.05). The 18months all-cause death tended to be higher in the group with low LVEF, however there was not statistical significance in the two groups (53.8% vs 24.8% p=0.09).
Conclusion
LVEF was associated with MALE in patients with CLI.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Dual-antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) after second-generation drug eluting stent (2-DES) implantation reduced the risk of stent thrombosis and subsequent ischemic events, with an increase in bleeding risk. Although chronic kidney disease patients have high ischemic and bleeding risk, little is known about both risks in hemodialysis patients after 2-DES implantation during DAPT.
Method
From July 2009 to March 2017, we retrospectively analyzed post-discharge major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events [MACCE: cardiac death, myocardial infarction, target vessel revascularization (TVR) and cerebral infarction] and bleeding events in 644 consecutive patients during DAPT after 2-DES implantation. We divided them into 2 groups [102 hemodialysis (HD) and 518 non-hemodialysis (Non-HD) patients, mean age, 71±10 years] after excluding 24 patients (lost to follow up and peritoneal dialysis). Follow-up period was 49±24 months. Median DAPT duration was 12 months. The primary endpoint was MACCE. The secondary endpoint was bleeding events according to the Bleeding Academic Research Consortium (BARC) type 2, 3, or 5. MACCE and bleeding events were compared between HD and Non-HD by using the propensity score-matching (PSM) method.
Results
Among the 620 eligible patients, the primary and secondary events occurred in 207 (33.3%) and 76 (12.3%) patients, respectively. The rates of unadjusted MACCE [HD vs Non-HD: 53.9% vs 29.3%; Hazard ratio (HR) 2.39, p<0.01] and bleeding events (HD vs Non-HD: 21.6% vs 10.4%; HR 2.50, p<0.01) were significantly higher in HD than Non-HD.
After 1-to-1 propensity score adjustment for baseline differences (hypertension, diabetes mellitus, low ejection fraction, low albumin, anemia, and high C-reactive protein), a total of 160 patients (80 HD vs 80 Non-HD) was created. The rate of MACCE [HD vs Non-HD: 52.5% vs 31.3%; adjusted HR 2.04, p<0.01] was significantly higher in HD than Non-HD. Regarding MACCE, cardiac death (HD vs Non-HD: 18.8% vs 8.8%; adjusted HR 2.65, p=0.03) and TVR (HD vs Non-HD: 15.0% vs 6.3%; adjusted HR 2.74, p=0.046) occurred significantly higher in HD. On the other hand, bleeding events did not exhibit significant differences though HD had a numerically higher event rate (HD vs Non-HD: 25.0% vs 16.3%; adjusted HR 1.68, p=0.15), indicating that the bleeding risk in HD would be strongly dependent on the patient's background.
Conclusions
As a result of PSM, HD was shown to contribute to ischemic risk rather than bleeding risk. Even in the 2-DES era, HD was an independent risk factor of cardiac death and TVR. Therefore, further study on the current regimen of DAPT would be necessary while balancing both ischemic and bleeding risk.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
The current consensus is that frail patients have high risks of mortality. However, it remains unclear whether frailty is associated with mortality risks in super-elderly patients with peripheral artery disease (PAD).
Methods
The I-PAD registry was a prospective multicenter observational study involving 12 institutions in Nagano prefecture in Japan. From July 2015 to July 2016, the I-PAD registry enrolled 371 consecutive PAD patients who had undergone endovascular therapy (EVT). Among them, we selected and analysed 109 PAD patients who were >80 years old when they had undergone EVT and divided them into two groups: those with frailty (Clinical Frailty Scale≥5, n=47) and those without frailty (Clinical Frailty Scale≤4, n=62). The primary endpoints were overall survival and major adverse limb events (MALE), defined as a composite of all-cause death, major amputation and revascularization.
Results
The median follow-up period was 1.58±0.3 years. Overall, 109 patients with a mean age of 84.8±4.0 years, of whom 63.3% were men, were included. Overall survival and freedom from MALE were significantly lower among patients with frailty than among those without frailty (60.5% vs. 91.6%, P<0.001; 51.4% vs. 87.5%, P<0.001; respectively).
Conclusion
The prognosis of super-elderly patients with frailty is worse than that of patients without frailty.

From July 2015 to July 2016, 371 consecutive PAD patients who performed endovascular treatment (EVT) were enrolled in I-PAD registry. We could conduct follow up survey about 337 (age 73.8±9.6, men 72.4%) patients and divided two groups according to their LVEF (group with LVEF≤40%, n=18, group without LVEF≤40%, n=319). The primary end point was major adverse limb events (MALE: TLR, TVR, major amputations) and secondary end point was all-cause death.
Results
The median follow-up period was 13.6±5.7 months. The 18 months MALE and all-cause death rate were significantly higher in the group with low LVEF than group without low LVEF (61.1% vs 21.6% p<0.001, 44.4% vs 11.6% p<0.001).
Conclusion
LVEF was significantly associated with MALE and all-cause death in patients with PAD.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Obesity, defined as higher body mass index (BMI), is associated with better prognosis in patients with chronic heart failure (CHF), though the presence of obesity is a risk factor of development of CHF (Obesity paradox). On the other hand, muscle wasting, i.e. reduction in skeletal muscle mass, is frequently observed in CHF, leading to lower exercise capacity and poor cardiovascular outcome.
Purpose
The aim of this study was to examine whether analysis of body composition improves prediction of short-term readmission rates in patients with CHF.
Methods
We retrospectively analyzed data for 167 consecutive HF patients who were admitted to our institute for management of HF and received a Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) scan. Muscle wasting was defined as DEXA-measured appendicular skeletal muscle mass index <7.0 kg/m2 in male and <5.4 kg/m2 in female according to the Asian Working Group for Sarcopenia criteria. Obesity was defined according to the criteria by the use of DEXA-measured percent body fat mass: >25% in male, >30% in female. The primary endpoint was readmission due to cardiac events including worsening heart failure, arrhythmia, and cardiopulmonary arrest during a 180-days follow-up period after discharge.
Results
The mean age of the patients was 74±13 years and 46% of them were male. The mean BMI was 21.8±3.8 kg/m2. Forty-seven percent of the patients were classified as NYHA functional class III. The most frequent etiology of HF was cardiomyopathy (30%), followed by ischemic heart disease (27%) and valvular heart disease (27%). The prevalence of muscle wasting and that of obesity were 69% and 59%, respectively. Patients with muscle wasting had lower BMI level, higher prevalence of NYHA functional class III and diabetes mellitus compared with those without muscle wasting. On the other hand, patients with obesity had higher prevalence of hypertension and dyslipidemia, higher level of BMI, fasting plasma insulin and triglyceride, and lower level of HDL-cholesterol compared with those without obesity. During the follow-up period, 34 patients (19%) were re-hospitalized due to cardiac events. Kaplan-Meier survival curves showed that patients with obesity had a significantly lower readmission rate during a 180-days follow-up period than did the patients without obesity (14.3% vs. 29.0%, Log-Rank test, p<0.01). There was no difference in readmission rates between patients with and without muscle wasting (20.0% vs. 21.2%, p=0.88). In multivariate Cox regression analyses adjusted for age, sex, diabetes, and renal function, obesity was independently associated with lower readmission rates (hazard ratio 0.45, 95% confidence interval 0.22–0.93). However, the association between obesity and readmission rate was lost after the adjustment for NT-proBNP levels.
Conclusion
Body composition analysis by DEXA enables to find CHF patients with increased fat mass who have lower risk of short-term readmission.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction
Late catch-up phenomenon (LCU) of 1st generation drug eluting stent (DES) has been increasing yearly despite the rate of restenosis in 1 year has reduced compared with bare metal stent (BMS). 2nd generation DES was more improved than 1st generation DES and suggested more benefits about clinical outcome.
Purpose
To investigate the incidence and predictor of LCU after implantation of 2nd generation DES and to evaluate the association between LCU phenomenon and adverse events.
Methods
Between August 2012 and July 2013, a total of 1665 consecutive patients (1956 lesions with elective/urgent PCI) were enrolled in SHINANO 5 years Registry (a prospective observational multicenter cohort study) from 13 institutions in Nagano, Japan. 711 patients that were treated with 2nd generation DES and 576 patients with BMS were selected. Exclusion criterias were cases of 1st DES, only POBA, only aspiration and chronic total occulusion.
Results
There were significant difference about patients background between BMS and 2nd generation DES groups. Those groups were matched with propensity score. After matching, 822 patients (BMS group 411 patients, 2nd generation group 411 patients) were analyzed. The rates of 2nd DES and BMS restenosis 5 years after initial PCI were 9.2% and 8.5% (p=0.572), those of LCU were 2.6% and 5.6% (p=0.043) by 1 year landmark analysis. Cox proportional hazards analysis revealed that the DES in-stent restenosis (ISR) lesion and higher HbA1c were independent predictors for LCU from 1year to 5year (HR 5.304, p=0.009, HR 1.254, p=0.015), but 2nd generation DES was not. Kaplan Meier curve showed no association between LCU phenomenon and all cause death (p=0.446). Cox regression analysis showed LCU was not independent predictor for all cause death (p=0.414).
Conclusions
Implantation to DES-ISR lesion with 2nd generation DES was associated with higher LCU. Despite of more complex lesions with 2nd generation DES, there were no differences of LCU incidence between 2nd generation DES and BMS.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Malnutrition is frequently present and closely associated with poor clinical outcomes in elderly heart failure (HF) patients. Our previous study showed that low energy intake (EI) is associated with worse functional status in elderly HF inpatients after cardiac rehabilitation, but significance of EI in prediction of hospital readmission has not been elucidated fully.
Purpose
We examined whether low EI is a predictor of readmission for cardiac events in elderly HF patients.
Methods
We retrospectively retrieved data for 298 HF patients aged ≥65 years (median age of 77 years, interquartile range [IQR]: 71 - 82, female: 53%) who admitted to our institute for diagnosis and treatment of HF. Medical records were reviewed with regard to demography, medical history, comorbidities, medications, laboratory data, echocardiograms, functional status, nutritional status and total energy intake. Nutritional status was assessed using the Mini Nutritional Assessment Short Form (MNA-SF) and total EI per day were calculated at discharge by a registered dietitian and a trained physical therapist. The primary endpoint was readmission due to cardiovascular events including worsening HF, arrhythmia, angina pectoris and myocardial infarction during a 1-year follow-up period.
Results
The median period of follow-up was 235 days (IQR: 78–365 days). The 1-year readmission rate for cardiovascular events was 54.4%. The cutoff values of MNA-SF score and EI, calculated by ROC curve analysis to predict the primary endpoint, were 7 points (area under the curve [AUC]: 0.59, sensitivity: 0.65, specificity: 0.50) and 31.8 kcal/kg/day (AUC: 0.59, sensitivity: 0.83, specificity: 0.35), respectively. Patients with low MNF-SF score (≤7) or low EI (≤31.8 kcal/kg/day) had significantly higher readmission rate during a 1-year follow-up period than did the patients with high MNF-SF score or EI (MNA-SF: 60.7% vs. 45.6%, p<0.01, EI: 60.4% vs. 36.8%, p<0.01), respectively. When patients were classified into four groups using cutoff values of MNA-SF score and EI, 1-year readmission rate was significantly higher in patients with low EI than in those with high EI regardless of MNF-SF scores. In multivariate Cox proportional hazard analyses adjusted for known prognostic factors in addition to age and gender, hazard ratios (HR) were significantly higher in patients with high MNA-SF score and low EI (adjusted HR: 2.81, 95% confidential interval [CI]: 1.15 - 9.32, p=0.02) and low MNA-SF score (≤7) and low EI (adjusted HR: 4.16, 95% CI: 1.72 - 13.72, p<0.01) than those with high MNA-SF score and high EI.
Kaplan-Meier curves of readmission rates
Conclusions
Low energy intake is a nutritional status-independent predictor of 1-year readmission rate in elderly HF patients.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Although Right Ventricular dysfunction (RVD) is one of the predictor of poor prognosis, it is believed that ischemic RVD after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for acute coronary syndrome (ACS) restores quickly. Because right ventricular perfusion has more ischemic preconditioning compared with left ventricle, due to their complex perfusion system. However, little is known about the time courses of RVD after ACS-PCI andtheir prognosis. We evaluated the relationship between right ventricular branch slow flow phenomenon (RVB-SF) post ACS-PCI in right coronary artery (RCA) and RVD at 6–8 months follow-up.
Method
We retrospectively analyzed consecutive 82 patients who underwent PCI for ACS in proximal or mid portion of RCA from August 2011 to March 2018 in our institution. Finally, both baseline and follow-up data were obtained from 70 patients. We analyzed TIMI frame count (TFC) to confirm the presence of RVB-SF (TFC ≥40 frame) after PCI. We also analyzed right ventricular fractional area change (RVFAC) at baseline and follow-up using echocardiography to detect sustained RVD (RVFAC ≤35%).
Result
We divided the patients into two groups (RVB-SF: 36 patients, RVB non-SF: 34 patients). Patient clinical characteristics were similar in both groups (sex, age, risk factors, medication, onset to balloon time, left ventricular stroke volume, max creatine kinase). Baseline RVFAC and follow-up RVFAC was significantly smaller in RVB-SF than in RVB non-SF, respectively. (27.1±1.7% vs. 38.3±1.8%, 31.4±1.0% vs. 48.7±1.1%, P<0.0001). However, ΔRVFAC (follow-up RVFAC – baseline RVFAC) was similar between groups. The size of inferior vena cava and systolic pulmonary artery pressure at follow-up were similar in both groups (12.1±0.6 mm vs. 11.7±0.7 mm, P=0.67, 25.7±1.5 mmHg vs. 25.2±1.5 mmHg, P=0.82). In RVB non-SF, 10 patients (29.4%) were diagnosed clinical RVAMI. However, follow-up RVFAC were similar and preserved in both groups (RVAMI: 48.1±1.3%, non-RVAMI: 49.9±1.9%, P=0.85). In RVB-SF, 19 patients (52.7%) were diagnosed clinical RVAMI. Follow-up RVFAC did not improved significantly in both groups (RVAMI: 30.4±1.4% vs. non-RVAMI: 32.6±1.5%, P=0.70). Multivariate analysis showed RVB-SF was the only independent predictor of sustained RVD at 6–8 months follow-up after ACS-PCI.
Conclusion
RVB-SF findings after ACS-PCI for RCA could predict sustained RVD at mid-term follow-up, which may indicate future prolonged RVD.
