Abstract
Post-stroke epilepsy may occur after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH). Both early and late seizures could cause severe neurocognitive deficits if administration of appropriate antiseizure medication is delayed. Therefore, it is important to elucidate the risk factors for early and late seizures, which could be shared with medical teams to promptly manage seizures. There are aspects of both hemorrhage and ischemia in aSAH, and thus, numerous risk factors are considered for early and late seizures. We examined factors associated with aSAH-related early and late seizures. Among 297 patients who had aSAH and underwent direct or endovascular surgery, 25 had early seizures and 20 had late seizures. Patients who did not experience any seizures in at least 2-years of follow-up (n = 81) were used as the control group. Early seizures were associated with older age and acute severe nonneurological infection, whereas late seizures were associated with intraparenchymal lesion volume >10 mL and shunt placement. In patients with late seizures, consistency was frequently observed between electroencephalogram and the presence of intraparenchymal lesions. The frontopolar electrode on electroencephalogram was highly sensitive to abnormality in early seizures. Early seizures were induced by the patient's systemic factors, which may lower the threshold for cortical excitability. Patients with intraparenchymal lesions who undergo shunt placement should be carefully followed up for late seizures.

Abstract
Background:Coronary periarteritis is one of the clinical manifestations of IgG4-related disease. It can cause serious conditions such as angina and ruptured aneurysms. Therefore, it is important to recognize the clinical and radiological characteristics, which was little known.Objectives:We report four patients with IgG4-related coronary periarteritis with a systematic literature review.Methods:We identified four patients with IgG4-related coronary periarteritis at the St. Luke’s International Hospital in Tokyo, Japan from 2014 to 2020. A systematic literature review was conducted for English articles on IgG4-related coronary periarteritis cases with a full text or abstract available. We summarized patient demographics, IgG and IgG4 titers, the site and morphological type of coronary lesion, and other organ involvements.Results:Our 4 cases and 38 cases identified by the literature review were assessed. Coronary artery lesions were detected by a coronary CT in all but two cases. Wall thickening was the most common type of the lesion. Moreover, there were 32 (76.1%) patients with other organ involvements. The commonest other lesion was peri-aortitis in 21 (50.0%) patients. In cases with peri-aortitis, IgG and IgG4 titers were significantly higher than those without peri-aortitis (IgG4; 1540 [705.0, 2570.0] vs 246.0 [160.0, 536.3]; p = 0.001, IgG; 3596.5 [2838.3, 4260.0] vs 1779.0 [1288.3, 1992.8]; p =0.040). In addition, 15 (71.4%) patients of them had three or more IgG4 related organ involvements.Conclusion:Coronary CT was a useful imaging modality for the diagnosis of IgG4-related coronary periarteritis, and wall thickening was the most common lesion. Moreover, about half cases coexisted with peri-aortitis. Peri-aortitis and other organ involvements should be screened in those with higher IgG and IgG4.Table 1.Characteristics of our cases and the literature review cases.RCA: right coronary artery, LAD: left anterior descending artery, LCx: left circumflex arteryDisclosure of Interests:None declared

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Metabolic syndrome is a cluster of conditions including obesity, insulin resistance, hypertension, and abnormal cholesterol, which increases the cardiovascular risk. Metabolic syndrome or obesity has been reported to provide systemic inflammation and oxidative stress. Increased epicardial fat volume is a manifestation of obesity or metabolic syndrome. Those systemic and local conditions related to obesity or metabolic syndrome have been linking to the risk of atrial fibrillation (AF). The underlying mechanisms of obesity linking epicardial fat to AF progression have not been fully examined.
Purpose
To investigate the impact of obesity linked to epicardial fat on electrophysiologic and anatomical AF substrates.
Methods
Twenty dogs aged 3 years were divided into four groups (n=5 per each): normal diet for over 20 weeks (control group [median body weight: 12.0 kg]), rapid atrial pacing (RAP) for last 4–15 (median 8) weeks during a normal diet for the same period (RAP group [10.5 kg]), high-fat diet (HFD) maintained for over 20 weeks without RAP (MetS group [16.0 kg]), and RAP for last 4–12 (median 6) weeks during HFD maintained for 24 weeks (MetS-RAP group [17.0 kg]), respectively. Activation/voltage maps of the atria during sinus rhythm were created with Ensite NavX mapping system. The effective refractory period (ERP) at 5 left atrial (LA) and pulmonary vein (PV) sites (LA appendage [LAA], LA body, right and left superior PVs, and inferior PV), and AF inducibility by burst LAA pacing were determined. At study completion, hearts were excised for histopathological and gene expression analyses.
Results
The LA pressure was more significantly increased in MetS than the MetS-RAP, RAP, and control groups (22.5 [17–28.8] mmHg vs. 14.0 [10.5–16.3] mmHg, 10.5 [7.4–17.2] mmHg and 10.7 [9.6–13.5] mmHg, respectively, P<0.05). The LA/PV ERP at a basic cycle length of 400 ms was shorter in the MetS-RAP and RAP than MetS and control groups (118±39 ms and 122±44 ms vs. 136±18 ms and 155±39 ms, respectively, P<0.05). Short duration AF was more induced in the MetS and MetS-RAP than RAP and control groups (3 [0–5.5] sec and 2 [0.5–3.5] sec vs. 0 [0–4.5] sec and 0 [0–0] sec, P<0.05). Histological examinations showed the fatty infiltration extending from epicardial fat increased more in the Mets and Mets-RAP than RAP and control groups (Figure). The Fibronectin 1 and collagen I/III mRNA levels increased more in the MetS-RAP and AF than MetS and control groups.
Conclusions
AF vulnerability was associated with increased LA pressures and fibrofatty infiltration from epicardial fat in the MetS group, and with fibrofatty infiltration from epicardial fat with subtle fibrosis in the MetS-RAP group. This suggested that fibrofatty infiltration and epicardial fat plays an important role in AF pathogenesis in obese patients.

Abstract
Background:Thyroid disorders are known as common comorbidities of rheumatic diseases(RD) [1]. However, data regarding prevalence of hyperthyroidism with treatment indication in RD patients are limited.Objectives:This study aims to reveal and compare the frequency of newly developed hyperthyroidism with treatment indication between RD patients and healthy controls (HC), and identify risk factors to identify patients whose thyroid function should be followed up carefully.Methods:We retrospectively reviewed charts of RD patients and HC who had thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) measured at least once between 2004 and 2018 from immuno-rheumatology center and preventive medicine center in St. Luke’s International Hospital, Japan. We compared frequency of hyperthyroidism requiring treatment (TSH ≦ 0.1μU/mL or for which physicians started treatment) with Kaplan-Meier curve and log rank test. Cox regression multivariate analysis was performed to reveal risk factors for the new onset of hyperthyroidism with treatment indication in participants without treatment-indicated hyperthyroidism at initial assessments.Results:Overall, 2307 RD patients and 78251 HC were included. Newly detected hyperthyroidism with treatment indication were significantly more frequent in RD patients at initial assessment (1.3% vs 0.5 %, p < 0.001) and in total (2.9% vs 1.7%, p<0.001) (Table 1, Figure 1). Cox regression multivariate analysis revealed systemic lupus erythematosis (SLE), polymyositis dermatomyositis (PMDM), mixed connective tissue disease (MCTD) as significant risk factors of new developments of hyperthyroidism during follow up after adjusting confounders.

Abstract
Background:Currently it is hypothesized that many systemic autoimmune diseases occur due to environmental risk factors in addition to genetic risk factors. Anti-Neutrophil Cytoplasmic Antibody (ANCA) is mainly associated with three systemic autoimmune disease including granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA), microscopic polyangiitis (MPA), eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (EGPA). It is known that ANCA can be positive before clinical symptoms in patients with known diagnosis of GPA and ANCA titers rise before clinical manifestations appear. However, prevalence of ANCA among general population is not well known. It has not been described as well how many of people with positive ANCA eventually develop clinical manifestations of ANCA associated Vasculitis.Objectives:This study aims to estimate prevalence of ANCA in general population without ANCA associated Vasculitis. It also describes natural disease course of people with positive ANCA without ANCA associated Vasculitis. Risk factors for positive ANCA are also analyzed.Methods:This is a single center retrospective study at Center for Preventive Medicine of St. Luke’s International Hospital in Tokyo. ANCA was checked among the patients who wished to between 2018 and 2019. St. Luke’s Health Check-up Database (SLHCD) was utilized to collect the data. The patients whose serum was measured for ANCA were identified. The data for basic demographics, social habits, dietary habits and laboratory data were extracted. The charts of the patients with positive ANCA were reviewed.Results:Sera of total 1204 people were checked for ANCA. Of these 1204 people, 587 (48.8%) are male and the mean age was 55.8 years (32.6 to 79). There were total 11 patients with positive ANCA. Myeloperoxidase ANCA (MPO-ANCA) was positive for 3 patients and proteinase 3 ANCA (PR3-ANCA) was positive for 8 patients. Of these 11 patients, 5 were male (45.5%) and the mean age was 54.6 years. Two patients had history of autoimmune disease (primary biliary cirrhosis and ulcerative colitis). Five patients were evaluated by rheumatologists with the median follow-up period of 274 days. None of them developed clinical signs and symptoms of ANCA associated Vasculitis. Four out of five patients had ANCA checked later, two of which turned negative. The prevalence of ANCA in this cohort was 0.9% (95% confidence interval [95% CI]: 0.5% to 1.6%). Univariate analysis was performed to identify risk factors of positive ANCA. The variables analyzed include age, gender, body mass index (BMI), smoking habits, alcohol intake, dietary habits (fruits, fish, red meat), hypertension, dyslipidemia, and laboratory data. None of these variables demonstrated statistically significant differences except for positive rheumatoid factor (ANCA positive group: 33 % vs ANCA negative group: 9.1%, p value = 0.044).Conclusion:The prevalence of ANCA in this cohort was 0.9% (95% CI: 0.5% to 1.6%). None of them who had a follow-up developed ANCA associated Vasculitis during the follow-up period. Longer follow-up and more patients are necessary to determine natural course of people with positive ANCA.Disclosure of Interests:None declared

Abstract
Background:IgG4-Related Disease (IgG4RD) is known to cause multiple organ lesions with infiltration of IgG4-positive plasma cells, and patients often have relapses with tapering treatments despite an initial good response to glucocorticoids therapy. Mizoribine (MZR) is an immunosuppressant working as an inhibitor of purine synthesis, which mechanism of action is similar to mycophenolate mofetil. Data regarding the efficacy and safety of MZR on IgG4RD is limited although some previous case reports1showed effectiveness for IgG4RD.Objectives:This study aims to assess the efficacy and safety of MZR in patients with IgG4RD.Methods:We retrospectively reviewed charts of IgG4RD patients who used MZR between January 2004 and December 2019 at Immuno-Rheumatology Center in St. Luke’s International Hospital, Tokyo, Japan. We investigated basic demographics, involved organs, results of blood tests including IgG and IgG4 titer, and medications used including glucocorticoid and other immunosuppressants (IS). We followed IgG4 titer, dose of glucocorticoid, flare of disease and retention of MZR at the beginning, 6 and 12months after starting MZR. We compared changes in PSL (prednisolone) doses and IgG4 titers over time using Friedman test with Bonferroni correction. We also checked adverse events during follow up.Results:Twenty-two patients with IgG4RD who used MZR were included. Median age was 62 years old, and 15 (68.2%) patients are male. Lacrimal and salivary glands, pancreatitis and retroperitoneal fibrosis were common lesions. All patients were initially treated with glucocorticoids. Flare was observed in 5 (22.7 %) patients before initiation of MZR. The number of patients who continued MZR without flare are 19 (86.4 %) at 6 months, and 14 (73.7 %) at 12 months. IgG4 titer significantly declined at 6 and 12 months from baseline although significant consecutive decrease in PSL dose (Figure 1, 2). Liver dysfunctions are commonest adverse events (n=16, 72.7%) but mild (grade1; n=15, 68.2%) and most cases are apparently due to other reasons. Serious infection (SI) occurred in 3 (13.6%) patients in total follow up, however no SI were observed during 1 year after MZR treatment.Conclusion:MZR can be safely used in patients of IgG4RD with high retention rate, and seemed to have steroid-sparing effect. Prospective comparative studies are needed.References:[1]Nanke Y, Kobashigawa T, Yago T, Kamatani N, Kotake S.

Rheumatoid factor (RF) and anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide antibody (ACPA) are strongly associated with RA, and these biomarkers could turn to be positive before development of clinical symptoms. While smoking, particularly Brinkman index (BI) is well known as a risk factor for RA and ACPA positivity, it is still unclear whether smoking intensity or smoking duration contribute more to positive RF and ACPA.Objectives:This study aims to evaluate risk factors for RF and ACPA positivity in the general population. It also describes whether smoking intensity, duration, and BI are significant.Methods:This is a cross-sectional, observational, single center study. We reviewed the baseline characteristics of the general population who checked RF and ACPA at Preventive Medicine Center in St. Luke’s International Hospital, Tokyo, Japan from January 2004 to December 2018.The data for basic demographics, dietary habit, smoking intensity, smoking duration, BI, and blood tests including RF and ACPA were extracted. The data was analyzed statistically.Results:A total of 127472 people who checked RF are included. Of these 127472 people, 64504 (50.6%) are male and the mean age was 44.9 years. RF was positive in 11477 people (9.0%). Among these, 1667 (1.2%) were checked for ACPA, and 21 people (1.3%) had positive ACPA. None of variables demonstrated significant association with RF positivity. In contrast, BI and smoking duration was significantly associated with an increased risk of ACPA positivity (13.3 years vs 7.49 years, p value = 0.023), although the number of cigarettes smoked was not. The smoking duration for 10 years or more was associated with an increased risk of ACPA positivity even after adjusted for age and sex (adjusted hazard ratio: 2.47 [95% confidence interval: 1.04-5.87]; p=0.04).Conclusion:In this study, no significant risk factor for positive RF was found. Even smoking was not associated with RF positivity. On the other hand, smoking duration, not smoking intensity was significantly associated with an increased risk of ACPA positivity.References:[1]Verpoort KN.

Abstract
Appropriate cell sources, bioactive factors and biomaterials for generation of functional and integrated annulus fibrosus (AF) tissue analogues are still an unmet need. In the present study, the AF cell markers, collagen type I, cluster of differentiation 146 (CD146), mohawk (MKX) and smooth muscle protein 22α (SM22α) were found to be suitable indicators of functional AF cell induction. In vitro 2D culture of human AF cells showed that transforming growth factor β1 (TGF-β1) upregulated the expression of the functional AF markers and increased cell contractility, indicating that TGF-β1-pre-treated AF cells were an appropriate cell source for AF tissue regeneration. Furthermore, a tissue engineered construct, composed of polyurethane (PU) scaffold with a TGF-β1-supplemented collagen type I hydrogel and human AF cells, was evaluated with in vitro 3D culture and ex vivo preclinical bioreactor-loaded organ culture models. The collagen type I hydrogel helped maintaining the AF functional phenotype. TGF-β1 supplement within the collagen I hydrogel further promoted cell proliferation and matrix production of AF cells within in vitro 3D culture. In the ex vivo IVD organ culture model with physiologically relevant mechanical loading, TGF-β1 supplement in the transplanted constructs induced the functional AF cell phenotype and enhanced collagen matrix synthesis. In conclusion, TGF-β1-containing collagen-PU constructs can induce the functional cell phenotype of human AF cells in vitro and in situ. This combined cellular, biomaterial and bioactive agent therapy has a great potential for AF tissue regeneration and rupture repair.

Abstract
The family Sarthroviridae includes a single genus, Macronovirus, which in turn includes a single species, Macrobrachium satellite virus 1. Members of this species, named extra small virus, are satellite viruses of Macrobrachium rosenbergii nodavirus, an unclassified virus related to members of the family Nodaviridae. Both viruses have isometric, spherical virions, infect giant freshwater prawns and together cause white tail disease, which is responsible for mass mortalities and severe economic losses in hatcheries and farms. Infection is caused by both vertical and horizontal transmission of virus. Aquatic insects act as a carrier to transmit the disease in prawns. This is a summary of the International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses (ICTV) Report on the taxonomy of the Sarthroviridae, which is available at www.ictv.global/report/sarthroviridae.

Abstract
Summary
Objectives:
The analysis of brain imaging data such as functional MRI often requires considerable computing resources, which in most cases are not readily available in many medical imaging facilities. This lack of computing power makes it difficult for researchers and medical practitioners alike to perform on-site analysis of the generated data. This paper presents a system that is capable of analyzing functional MRI data in real time with results available within seconds after data acquisition.
Methods:
The system employs remote computational servers to provide the necessary computing power. System integration is accomplished by an accompanying software package, which includes fMRI analysis tools, data transfer routines, and an easy-to-use graphical user interface. The remote analysis is transparent to the user as if all computations are performed locally.
Results:
The use of PC clusters in the analysis of fMRI data significantly improved the performance of the system. Simulation runs fully achieved real-time performance with a total processing time of 1.089 s per image volume (64 x 64 x 30 in size), much less than the per volume acquisition time set to 3.0 s.
Conclusions:
The results show the feasibility of using remote computational resources to enable on-demand real-time fMRI capabilities to imaging sites. It also offers the possibility of doing more intensive analysis even if the imaging site doesn’t have the necessary computing resources.

Abstract
Purpose: To examine the practical feasibility of using a 3.0-T MR unit to obtain high-quality, high-resolution images of the knee joint. Material and Methods: One human cadaveric and 5 porcine knees were imaged with the 3.0-T unit. Sets of T1-weighted spin echo images were obtained with in-plane resolution of 0.195 × 0.39 mm and an acquisition time of approximately 5 min. Two porcine knees were also imaged with the 1.0-T unit with an identical imaging protocol and the signal-to-noise (S/N) ratios were measured on images at 3 T and 1 T. Results: The 3-T MR system provided detailed delineation of the knees. Deep layers of the medial collateral ligament and associated fine fibers beneath the medial and lateral collateral ligament were demarcated. We observed precise demonstration of the tibial attachment of the anterior cruciate ligament, irregularity of the meniscal free edge, and conjoint tendon formation together with the lateral collateral ligament and the biceps femoris tendon. Compared to the 1-T unit, the S/N ratio with the 3-T unit was increased by a factor of 1.39 to 1.72. Conclusion: Due to the potential advantage of obtaining detailed images, the 3-T MR system suggests a practical utility for fine demonstration of the knee morphology.

Abstract
Transplantation of activated nucleus pulposus (NP) cells obtained by coculturing NP cells and bone marrow mesenchymal stromal cells having cell-to-cell contact has been shown to be effective in animal models and, more recently, in human clinical trials. If the NP cells can be cryopreserved, then autologous cell transplantation could be offered to patients as and when required. In a previous study, we confirmed that activated NP cells can be obtained by coculturing with mesenchymal cells after cryopreservation. However, the in vivo effects of cell transplantation therapy using activated NP cells prepared from cryopreserved cells are not known. In this in vivo canine model, we compared indicators of disc degeneration in animals that received transplanted activated normal NP cells, transplanted cryopreserved NP cells, and no cell transplantation after induction of disc degeneration. The intervertebral disc height on radiographs and T2-weighted magnetic resonance imaging were significantly higher in both cell transplantation groups compared with the degenerated disc group. Macroscopic and histological findings demonstrated attenuated disc degeneration in the two transplanted groups. Intense staining of proteoglycan and collagen type II was seen in green fluorescent protein-labelled transplanted cells, which suggested that the cells had survived and were functioning after transplantation. No significant differences were observed between the two transplanted groups. Transplanted activated cryopreserved NP cells induced a similar attenuation of intervertebral disc degeneration as that of conventionally activated NP cells. These findings suggest that the use of cryopreserved cells specific to a patient's condition has potential in transplantation therapy.

Abstract
New data from the T2K neutrino oscillation experiment produce the most precise measurement of the neutrino mixing parameter θ23. Using an off-axis neutrino beam with a peak energy of 0.6 GeV and a data set corresponding to 6.57×10(20) protons on target, T2K has fit the energy-dependent νμ oscillation probability to determine oscillation parameters. The 68% confidence limit on sin(2)(θ23) is 0.514(-0.056)(+0.055) (0.511±0.055), assuming normal (inverted) mass hierarchy. The best-fit mass-squared splitting for normal hierarchy is Δm32(2)=(2.51±0.10)×10(-3) eV(2)/c(4) (inverted hierarchy: Δm13(2)=(2.48±0.10)×10(-3) eV(2)/c(4)). Adding a model of multinucleon interactions that affect neutrino energy reconstruction is found to produce only small biases in neutrino oscillation parameter extraction at current levels of statistical uncertainty.

Abstract
The T2K experiment has observed electron neutrino appearance in a muon neutrino beam produced 295 km from the Super-Kamiokande detector with a peak energy of 0.6 GeV. A total of 28 electron neutrino events were detected with an energy distribution consistent with an appearance signal, corresponding to a significance of 7.3σ when compared to 4.92±0.55 expected background events. In the Pontecorvo-Maki-Nakagawa-Sakata mixing model, the electron neutrino appearance signal depends on several parameters including three mixing angles θ12, θ23, θ13, a mass difference Δm(32)(2) and a CP violating phase δ(CP). In this neutrino oscillation scenario, assuming |Δm(32)(2)|=2.4×10(-3) eV(2), sin(2)θ(23)=0.5, and Δm322>0 (Δm(32)(2)<0), a best-fit value of sin(2)2θ(13)=0.140(-0.032)(+0.038) (0.170(-0.037)(+0.045)) is obtained at δ(CP)=0. When combining the result with the current best knowledge of oscillation parameters including the world average value of θ(13) from reactor experiments, some values of δ(CP) are disfavored at the 90% C.L.

Abstract
The T2K Collaboration reports a precision measurement of muon neutrino disappearance with an off-axis neutrino beam with a peak energy of 0.6 GeV. Near detector measurements are used to constrain the neutrino flux and cross section parameters. The Super-Kamiokande far detector, which is 295 km downstream of the neutrino production target, collected data corresponding to 3.01×10(20) protons on target. In the absence of neutrino oscillations, 205±17 (syst) events are expected to be detected while only 58 muon neutrino event candidates are observed. A fit to the neutrino rate and energy spectrum, assuming three neutrino flavors and normal mass hierarchy yields a best-fit mixing angle sin2(θ23)=0.514±0.082 and mass splitting |Δm(32)(2)|=2.44(-0.15)(+0.17)×10(-3) eV2/c4. Our result corresponds to the maximal oscillation disappearance probability.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Familial platelet disorder (FPD) is a rare autosomal dominant disease characterized by thrombocytopenia and abnormal platelet function. Causal mutations have been identified in the gene encoding runt-related transcription factor 1 (RUNX1) of FPD patients. OBJECTIVES To elucidate the role of RUNX1 in the regulation of expression of platelet factor 4 (PF4) and to propose a plausible mechanism underlying RUNX1-mediated induction of the FPD phenotype. METHODS We assessed whether RUNX1 and its mutants, in combination with E26 transformation-specific-1 (ETS-1), Core-binding factor subunit beta (CBFβ), and Friend leukemia virus integration 1 (FLI-1), cooperatively regulate PF4 expression during megakaryocytic differentiation. In an embryonic stem cell differentiation system, expression levels of endogenous and exogenous RUNX1 and PF4 were determined by real-time RT-PCR. Promoter activation by the transcription factors were evaluated by reporter gene assays with HepG2 cells. DNA binding activity and protein interaction were analyzed by electrophoretic mobility shift assay and immunoprecipitation assay with Cos-7 cells, respectively. Protein localization was analyzed by immunocytochemistry and Western blotting with Cos-7 cells. RESULTS We demonstrated that RUNX1 activates endogenous PF4 expression in megakaryocytic differentiation. RUNX1, but not its mutants, in combination with ETS-1 and CBFβ, or FLI-1, synergistically activated the PF4 promoter. Each RUNX1 mutant harbors various functional abnormalities, including loss of DNA-binding activity, abnormal subcellular localization, and/or alterations of binding affinities for ETS-1, CBFβ, and FLI-1. CONCLUSIONS RUNX1, but not its mutants, strongly and synergistically activates PF4 expression along with ETS family proteins. Furthermore, loss of the RUNX1 transcriptional activation function is induced by various functional abnormalities.
