Abstract
BackgroundSerum Krebs von den Lungen-6 (KL-6) levels has much evidence as a biomarker about the progression and prognosis of interstitial lung disease (ILD), including systemic sclerosis (SSc)-associated ILD1-4. However, serum KL-6 levels often fluctuate regardless of the progression of ILD. This sometimes mislead the evaluation of the disease activity, however, the reason for the fluctuation has not been clarified.ObjectivesWe tested the hypothesis that serum KL-6 levels are affected by ambient temperature in patients with SSc.MethodsWe defined the warm season(May–October)as the period when the ambient temperature was above the Tokyo metropolitan average ambient temperature announced by the Japan Meteorological Agency, and the cold season (November–April)as the period when the ambient temperature was below the average. ILD was classified based on chest CT findings. Among SSc patients who had visited our department since May 2018, we selected those who had data of serum KL-6 levels at least 3 times in warm and cold seasons from October 2014 to September 2021, respectively. Patients having malignancy were excluded after confirmation of the onset of malignancy using medical record retrospectively. The difference in serum KL-6 levels between warm and cold seasons was evaluated by Wilcoxon’s rank-sum test.ResultsIn total, 252 patients with SSc were included. Median age was 66.3 years, with median disease duration of 13.5 (8.9–19.2)years, diffuse cutaneous type of 94 (37.3%)patients, and concomitant ILD of 120(47.6%)patients (Table 1). The median follow-up was 6.4 (4.4–6.8)years, with median KL-6 measurement of 24(14–39)times. Serum KL-6 levels were significantly higher in the cold season than that in the warm season, with a greater difference in the group with ILD(536 IU/L vs. 492 IU/L, p = 0.0012 in the group with ILD, 364 IU/L vs. 345 IU/L in the group without ILD, p = 0.0028).Table 1.Patients characteristicsWith ILD (n=120)Without ILD (n=132)P valueFemale, n (%)110 (43.7)128 (52.4)0.1Age, years (IQR)65.8(56.1–73.4)66.4(56.0–72.5)0.77Disease duration, years (IQR)14.0 (9.8-21.0)13.0 (8.7-18.0)0.23Modified Rodnan skin score (IQR)10 (4-15)6 (2-11)0.0017Diffuse SSc, n (%)53 (40.2)27 (20.5)<0.001Pulmonary hypertension, n (%)4 (3.3)3 (2.3)0.71ANA positive, n (%)98 (81.7)112 (84.8)0.50SSc-related autoantibody, n (%)98 (81.7)112 (84.8)0.50Anti-centromere antibody, n (%)17 (14.2)86 (71.7)<0.0001Anti-topoisomeraseⅠ antibody, n (%)63 (52.5)8 (6.1)<0.0001Anti-RNA polymerase Ⅲ antibody, n (%)7 (5.8)11 (8.3)0.62Anti-U1-RNP antibody, n (%)15 (12.5)13 (9.8)0.54KL-6, IU/L (IQR)548 (384–876.8)233 (191.3–302)<0.0001KL-6 measurement, times (IQR)33.5(20-45)18.5(12.3-28)<0.0001Steroid use, n (%)68 (56.7)22 (16.7)<0.0001Cyclophosphamide, n (%)44 (36.7)12 (9.1)<0.0001Other Immunosuppressive agents, n (%)31 (25.8)0.002ConclusionOur results suggest that cold ambient temperature may affect serum KL-6 levels in patients with SSc.References[1]Distler O, et al.

Abstract
BackgroundGenome-wide association studies (GWASs) have identified 29 disease-associated single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) for systemic sclerosis (SSc) in non-human leukocyte antigen (HLA) regions (1-7). While these GWASs have clarified genetic architectures of SSc, study subjects were mainly Caucasians limiting application of the findings to Asians.ObjectivesThe study was conducted to identify novel causal variants for SSc specific to Japanese subjects as well as those shared with European population. We also aimed to clarify mechanistic effects of the variants on pathogenesis of SSc.MethodsA total of 114,108 subjects comprising 1,499 cases and 112,609 controls were enrolled in the two-staged study leading to the ever-largest Asian GWAS for SSc. After applying a strict quality control both for genotype and samples, imputation was conducted using the reference panel of the phase 3v5 1,000 genome project data combined with a high-depth whole-genome sequence data of 3,256 Japanese subjects. We conducted logistic regression analyses and also combined the Japanese GWAS results with those of Europeans (6) by an inverse-variance fixed-effect model. Polygenicity and enrichment of functional annotations were evaluated by linkage disequilibrium score regression (LDSC), Haploreg and IMPACT programs. We also constructed polygenic risk score (PRS) to predict SSc development.ResultsWe identified three (FCRLA-FCGR, TNFAIP3, PLD4) and four (EOMES, ESR1, SLC12A5, TPI1P2) novel loci in Japanese GWAS and a trans-population meta-analysis, respectively. One of Japanese novel risk SNPs, rs6697139, located within FCGR gene clusters had a strong effect size (OR 2.05, P=4.9×10-11). We also found the complete LD variant, rs10917688, was positioned in cis-regulatory element and binding motif for an immunomodulatory transcription factor IRF8 in B cells, another genome-wide significant locus in our trans-ethnic meta-analysis and the previous European GWAS. Notably, the association of risk allele of rs10917688 was significant only in the presence of the risk allele of the IRF8. Intriguingly, rs10917688 was annotated as one enhancer-related histone marks, H3K4me1, in B cells, implying that FCGR gene(s) in B cells may play an important role in the pathogenesis of SSc. Furhtermore, significant heritability enrichment of active histone marks and a transcription factor C-Myc were found in B cells both in European and Japanese populations by LDSC and IMPACT, highlighting a possibility of a shared disease mechanism where abnormal B-cell activation may be one of the key drivers for the disease development. Finally, PRS using effects sizes of European GWAS moderately fit in the development of Japanese SSc (AUC 0.593), paving a path to personalized medicine for SSc.ConclusionOur study identified seven novel susceptibility loci in SSc. Downstream analyses highlighted a novel disease mechanism of SSc where an interactive role of FCGR gene(s) and IRF8 may accelerate the disease development and B cells may play a key role on the pathogenesis of SSc.References[1]F.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Most current models for predicting survival after resection of colorectal liver metastasis include largest diameter and number of colorectal liver metastases as dichotomous variables, resulting in underestimation of the extent of risk variation and substantial loss of statistical power. The aim of this study was to develop and validate a new prognostic model for patients undergoing liver resection including largest diameter and number of colorectal liver metastases as continuous variables. METHODS A prognostic model was developed using data from patients who underwent liver resection for colorectal liver metastases at MD Anderson Cancer Center and had RAS mutational data. A Cox proportional hazards model analysis was used to develop a model based on largest colorectal liver metastasis diameter and number of metastases as continuous variables. The model results were shown using contour plots, and validated externally in an international multi-institutional cohort. RESULTS A total of 810 patients met the inclusion criteria. Largest colorectal liver metastasis diameter (hazard ratio (HR) 1.11, 95 per cent confidence interval 1.06 to 1.16; P < 0.001), number of colorectal liver metastases (HR 1.06, 1.03 to 1.09; P < 0.001), and RAS mutation status (HR 1.76, 1.42 to 2.18; P < 0.001) were significantly associated with overall survival, together with age, primary lymph node metastasis, and prehepatectomy chemotherapy. The model performed well in the external validation cohort, with predicted overall survival values almost lying within 10 per cent of observed values. Wild-type RAS was associated with better overall survival than RAS mutation even when liver resection was performed for larger and/or multiple colorectal liver metastases. CONCLUSION The contour prognostic model, based on diameter and number of lesions considered as continuous variables along with RAS mutation, predicts overall survival after resection of colorectal liver metastasis.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Right ventricular (RV) septal pacing is often selected to preserve a more physiologic ventricular activation. But the pacing leads are not always located in true septal wall, rather in hinge or free wall in some cases with the conventional stylet-guided lead implantation. In recent years, new guiding catheter systems has attracted attention as a solution to that problem.
Objective
The aim of this study is to investigate that true ventricular sepal pacing can be achieved by use of the new guiding catheter system for pacing lead.
Methods
We enrolled 198 patients who underwent RV septal lead implantation and computed tomography (CT) after pacemaker implantation. 16 cases were used delivery catheter (Delivery), and 182 cases were used stylet for targeting ventricular septum (Conventional). We analyzed the lead locations with CT, and evaluated capture thresholds, R-wave amplitudes, lead impedances and 12-lead electrocardiogram findings one month after implantation.
Results
All cases of delivery catheter group had true septal lead positions (Delivery; 100% vs Conventional; 44%, p<0.01). Capture thresholds and lead impedances had not significant differences between between two groups (0.65±0.15V vs 0.60±0.15V, p=0.21, 570±95Ω vs 595±107Ω, p=0.39, respectively). R-wave amplitudes were significantly higher in delivery catheter group (13.0±4.8mV vs 10±4.6mV, p<0.01). Paced QRS durations were shorter in delivery catheter group (128±16ms vs 150±21ms, p<0.01).
Conclusions
The delivery catheter system designated for pacing lead can contribute to select the true ventricular septal sites and to attain the more physiologic ventricular activation.

Abstract
The aim of the present study was to evaluate the toxicity and investigate the prognostic factors of stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) for peripheral stage I lung cancer in patients with poor pulmonary function. Data from 95 patients with stage I lung cancer with poor pulmonary function treated using SBRT at Osaka Rosai Hospital were retrospectively analyzed. Poor pulmonary function was defined as the forced expiratory volume %/sec (FEV1/FVC) <70% or percentage of vital capacity (%VC) <80% during pretreatment spirometry testing. The median FEV1/FVC and %VC of the patients were 59.1 and 78.8%, respectively. The most commonly prescribed dose of SBRT was 50 Gy in four fractions (68 patients, 72%). The median follow-up period was 34 months. Four patients developed adverse effects of grade ≥3, one patient developed grade 5 radiation pneumonitis, one grade 5 hemoptysis, one grade 3 radiation pneumonitis and one grade 3 chest wall pain. The 3-year local control and overall survival (OS) rates were 78.8 and 59.9%, respectively. Univariate analysis revealed that Karnofsky performance status (KPS) significantly predicted OS (P=0.037). Thus, SBRT in patients with stage I lung cancer with poor pulmonary function may be effective with acceptable toxicity. A KPS score ≥80 indicated good prognosis.

Abstract
We report the clinical course of 6 gastric cancer patients who received radiation therapy at our hospital for solitary lymph node metastasis. The site of the metastatic lymph node was the clavicle, para-aorta, para-portal vein, common hepatic artery, and diaphragm in 1, 1, 2, 1, and 1 case, respectively. Median irradiation dose was 50[range, 45-50.4]Gy, and combination chemotherapy was administered in 4 cases. The clinical outcome was complete response and partial response in 3 cases each, with no adverse events associated with radiation therapy. The median progression-free survival was 11.3 months. In summary, local treatment by radiation therapy is one of the treatment options for patients with solitary lymph node metastasis of gastric cancer.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We aimed to study the usefulness of serum soluble CD163 (sCD163) as a biomarker for macrophage activation syndrome (MAS) associated with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). METHODS Serum sCD163 levels were retrospectively measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for SLE patients associated with MAS (SLE-MAS), lupus nephritis (LN), or autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA) and/or immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) and healthy controls (HCs). Posttreatment samples were also evaluated in the available SLE-MAS patients. The associations between serum sCD163 levels and clinical information were statistically analyzed. RESULTS The serum sCD163 levels in SLE-MAS, LN and SLE-AIHA/ITP groups were significantly higher than those in HCs (n = 17, 29, 13, and 68, respectively; p < 0.01 for all comparisons). In addition, the serum sCD163 levels in the SLE-MAS group were even higher than those in the LN and SLE-AIHA/ITP groups (p < 0.01 for both comparisons). Serum sCD163 levels were correlated with the SLE Disease Activity Index 2000 scores (r = 0.53), whereas they were not correlated with the serum ferritin levels. With the determined cut-off value, the sensitivity and specificity of serum sCD163 for the diagnosis of SLE-MAS were 59% and 86%, respectively. Retesting showed that the serum sCD163 levels decreased significantly following treatment in parallel with disease amelioration in the SLE-MAS group (p < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS The present study suggests the usefulness of serum sCD163 as a diagnostic and disease-activity biomarker for SLE-associated MAS. Serum sCD163 might also have a different role as a biomarker for SLE-associated MAS than serum ferritin does.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Traditional classifications for open liver resection are not always associated with surgical complexity and postoperative morbidity. The aim of this study was to test whether a three-level classification for stratifying surgical complexity based on surgical and postoperative outcomes, originally devised for laparoscopic liver resection, is superior to classifications based on a previously reported survey for stratifying surgical complexity of open liver resections, minor/major nomenclature or number of resected segments. METHODS Patients undergoing a first open liver resection without simultaneous procedures at MD Anderson Cancer Center (Houston cohort) or the University of Tokyo (Tokyo cohort) were studied. Surgical and postoperative outcomes were compared among three grades: I (wedge resection for anterolateral or posterosuperior segment and left lateral sectionectomy); II (anterolateral segmentectomy and left hepatectomy); III (posterosuperior segmentectomy, right posterior sectionectomy, right hepatectomy, central hepatectomy and extended left/right hepatectomy). RESULTS In both the Houston (1878 patients) and Tokyo (1202) cohorts, duration of operation, estimated blood loss and comprehensive complication index score differed between the three grades (all P < 0·050) and increased in stepwise fashion from grades I to III (all P < 0·001). Left hepatectomy was associated with better surgical and postoperative outcomes than right hepatectomy, extended right hepatectomy and right posterior sectionectomy, although these four procedures were categorized as being of medium complexity in the survey-based classification. Surgical outcomes of minor open liver resections also differed between the three grades (all P < 0·050). For duration of operation and blood loss, the area under the curve was higher for the three-level classification than for the minor/major or segment-based classification. CONCLUSION The three-level classification may be useful in studies analysing open liver resection at Western and Eastern centres.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
The usefulness of fractional flow reserve (FFR) and instantaneous wave-free ratio (iFR) evaluation has been confirmed in the determination of revascularization of coronary artery disease. When FFR≤0.8 and iFR≤0.89 were regarded as the criteria for positivity, the discordance was noted in approximately 20%, but this cause has not been well established.
Purpose
The purpose of this study was to investigate the patient background and features on coronary CT angiography (CCTA) showing the discordance between FFR≤0.8 and iFR≤0.89.
Methods
The subjects were consecutive 85 cases with 108 vessels in which stenosis of 30–90% was detected at one vessel of at least 2mm or more in the major epicardial vessels and FFR and iFR was performed within subsequent 90 days, among suspected cases of coronary arterial diseases which underwent CCTA. The factors showing the discordance between FFR and iFR (patient background, coronary artery calcification score, high risk plaque features on CCTA (positive remodeling, low attenuation plaque), plaque characteristics by a plaque analysis software using a new algorithm called labeling method (vessel volume, plaque volume, lumen volume, plaque length, maximum plaque burden, necrotic core area, fibrous area and calcium area) were evaluated using logistic regression analysis on per-patient and per-vessel basis.
Results
There were no significant both FFR and iFR positive definite factors on per-patient basis. The lumen volume/vessel volume (OR: 0.93, 95% CI: 0.88–0.98, P=0.0032) (OR: 0.90, 95% CI: 0.85–0.95, P<0.0001),minimum lumen area (MLA) (OR: 0.59, 95% CI: 0.41–0.85, P=0.0006) (OR: 0.64, 95% CI: 0.44–0.92, P=0.0047), the plaque volume/vessel volume (OR: 1.05, 95% CI: 1.01–1.10, P=0.0114) (OR: 1.09, 95% CI: 1.04–1.15, P=0.0002) and maximum plaque burden (OR: 1.08, 95% CI: 1.01–1.15, P=0.0095) (OR: 1.06, 95% CI: 1.00–1.13, P=0.0406) were significant both FFR and iFR positive definite factors on per-vessels basis. Discordance between FFR≤0.8 and iFR≤0.89 was observed in 23 vessels (21.3%) of 19 patients. In FFR positive and iFR negative group (15 vessels, 13.9%), positive remodeling (PR) (OR: 4.38, 95% CI: 1.13–17.00, P=0.0294) was only significant predictor. In FFR negative and iFR positive group, there was no significant predictors.
Conclusions
In both FFR and iFR, only lumen volume /vessel volume, MLA, plaque volume/vessel volume and plaque burden were significant positive definite factors. As for the discordance between FFR and iFR, PR is significant predictor in FFR positive and iFR negative group.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Mid-ventricular obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (MVO-HCM) has different blood flow dynamics from other phenotypes, but there are few detailed data on blood flow dynamics in the left ventricle.
Methods
4D-Flow MRI were performed at 1.5 T or 3 T with 9 MVO-HCM patients and 22 control patients (LVEF>50%, no wall motion abnormality). Myocardial infarction, severe valvular disease, HCM cases other than MVO were excluded. We calculated the cardiac function parameters and observed blood flow dynamics in the left ventricle using 4D-Flow MRI.
Results
LV mass was significantly higher in MVO-HCM group than in Control group (Control group; 73.3g vs MVO-HCM group; 109.5g, P=0.019). LVEF was higher in MVO-HCM group (Control group; 61.6% vs MVO-HCM group; 70.6%, P=0.026), but Stroke volume did not differ between the two groups (Control group; 68.8ml vs MVO-HCM group; 64.4ml, P=0.43).One or two vortices were observed in the left ventricle after opening the mitral valve. Two vortices were observed in 16 cases (72.7%) in the control group and 9 cases (100%) in the MVO-HCM group. Two vortices were formed on the anterior side and the posterior side. Blood flow pattern in which the vortex on the posterior side was formed to be the same size or larger than the vortex on the anterior side was observed only in the MVO-HCM group (Control group; 0% vs MVO-HCM group; 66.7%, P<0.001).
Streamline of MVO-HCM & Control
Conclusion
Characteristic blood flow patterns in the left ventricle of the MVO-HCM were revealed by using 4D-MRI. We thought that blood flow collides with the left ventricle wall due to the marked hypertrophy in the mid-ventricle, and normal vortex ring can not be formed in the MVO-HCM cases.

Abstract
The organizing of magnetic skyrmions shows several forms similar to atomic arrays of solid states. Using Lorentz transmission electron microscopy, we report the first direct observation of a stable liquid-crystalline structure of skyrmions in chiral magnet Co_{8.5}Zn_{7.5}Mn_{4}(110) thin film, caused by magnetic anisotropy and chiral surface twist. Elongated skyrmions are oriented and periodically arranged only in the ⟨110⟩ directions, whereas they exhibit short-range order along the ⟨001⟩ directions, indicating a smectic skyrmion state. In addition, skyrmions possess anisotropic interaction with an opposite sign depending on the crystal orientation, in contrast to existing isotropic interaction.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIM To identify the clinical and dosimetric predictors of severe acute radiation esophagitis (RE) in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) treated with accelerated hyperfractionated concurrent chemoradiotherapy (AH-CCRT) with concomitant boost technique. PATIENTS AND METHODS A total of 159 patients who underwent AH-CCRT (64 Gy in 40 fractions twice daily) were retrospectively identified. Severe RE was designated as grade 3 or higher according to the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events, version 4.0. RESULTS The incidence rate of grade 3 RE was 15.1% (24/159). The multivariate analysis that incorporated the Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status (ECOG PS, ≥1 vs. 0) and the relative esophagus volume irradiated with at least 60 Gy (V60) was optimal. Patients with a V60 of ≥15% had a 37.8% risk of grade 3 RE compared to a 6.1% risk among those with a V60 of <15%. CONCLUSION ECOG PS (≥1 vs. 0) and the V60 were found to be significant risk factors for severe RE in NSCLC patients who underwent AH-CCRT.

Abstract
We demonstrate synthetic azimuthal gauge potentials for Bose-Einstein condensates from engineering atom-light couplings. The gauge potential is created by adiabatically loading the condensate into the lowest energy Raman-dressed state, achieving a coreless vortex state. The azimuthal gauge potentials act as effective rotations and are tunable by the Raman coupling and detuning. We characterize the spin textures of the dressed states, in agreements with the theory. The lowest energy dressed state is stable with a 4.5-s half-atom-number-fraction lifetime. In addition, we exploit the azimuthal gauge potential to demonstrate the Hess-Fairbank effect, the analogue of Meissner effect in superconductors. The atoms in the absolute ground state has a zero quasiangular momentum and transits into a polar-core vortex when the synthetic magnetic flux is tuned to exceed a critical value. Our demonstration serves as a paradigm to create topological excitations by tailoring atom-light interactions where both types of SO(3) vortices in the |⟨F[over →]⟩|=1 manifold, coreless vortices and polar-core vortices, are created in our experiment. The gauge field in the stationary Hamiltonian opens a path to investigating rotation properties of atomic superfluids under thermal equilibrium.

Abstract
After brain injury, neural stem cell-derived neuronal precursors (neuroblasts) in the ventricular-subventricular zone migrate toward the lesion. However, the ability of the mammalian brain to regenerate neuronal circuits for functional recovery is quite limited. Here, using a mouse model for ischemic stroke, we show that neuroblast migration is restricted by reactive astrocytes in and around the lesion. To migrate, the neuroblasts use Slit1-Robo2 signaling to disrupt the actin cytoskeleton in reactive astrocytes at the site of contact. Slit1-overexpressing neuroblasts transplanted into the poststroke brain migrated closer to the lesion than did control neuroblasts. These neuroblasts matured into striatal neurons and efficiently regenerated neuronal circuits, resulting in functional recovery in the poststroke mice. These results suggest that the positioning of new neurons will be critical for functional neuronal regeneration in stem/progenitor cell-based therapies for brain injury.

Abstract
Clinical effect and safety of recombinant human erythropoietin (r-HuEPO) were evaluated in 66 hemodialysis patients with intractable anemia. Initially, 50U/kg dry weight (DW) of r-HuEPO was administered intravenously at the end of every hemodialysis procedure for 4 weeks, then the dosage was increased to 100 and 200U/kg DW for poor responders. The patients’ hematocrits rose from 19.8 ± 2.3% (pretreatment) to 30.2 ± 4.9% after 12 weeks. From 206 U of blood transfusion requirement in the 3-month period before the study, only 34 U were needed after treatment. Serum iron and ferritin levels fell significantly during the study, and iron storage was considered to be one of the decisive factors in the response to r-HuEPO. Blood pressure rose in the course of r-HuEPO administration, but uncontrollable hypertension was rarely observed. There was no significant adverse effect of r-HuEPO except for this mild hypertension. These results indicate that r-HuEPO is an excellent therapeutic aid for the anemia associated with chronic renal failure.

Abstract
Group3 medulloblastoma (MBG3) that predominantly occur in young children are usually associated with MYC amplification and/or overexpression, frequent metastasis and a dismal prognosis. Physiologically relevant MBG3 models are currently lacking, making inferences related to their cellular origin thus far limited. Using in utero electroporation, we here report that MBG3 mouse models can be developed in situ from different multipotent embryonic cerebellar progenitor cells via conditional expression of Myc and loss of Trp53 function in several Cre driver mouse lines. The Blbp-Cre driver that targets embryonic neural progenitors induced tumors exhibiting a large-cell/anaplastic histopathology adjacent to the fourth ventricle, recapitulating human MBG3. Enforced co-expression of luciferase together with Myc and a dominant-negative form of Trp53 revealed that GABAergic neuronal progenitors as well as cerebellar granule cells give rise to MBG3 with their distinct growth kinetics. Cross-species gene expression analysis revealed that these novel MBG3 models shared molecular characteristics with human MBG3, irrespective of their cellular origin. We here developed MBG3 mouse models in their physiological environment and we show that oncogenic insults drive this MB subgroup in different cerebellar lineages rather than in a specific cell of origin.

Abstract
We aimed to validate the reliability of the Medical Outcomes Study Short Form-36 (SF-36) among Japanese patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Japanese patients with SLE ( n = 233) completed the SF-36 and other related demographic questionnaires, and physicians simultaneously completed the SLE Disease Activity Index 2000 (SLEDAI-2K) and the Systemic Lupus International Collaborating Clinics Damage Index (SDI). Patients were prospectively followed for a repeat assessment the following year. The SF-36 subscales demonstrated acceptable internal consistency (Cronbach’s α of 0.85–0.89), and an overall good test–retest reliability (intraclass correlation coefficient >0.70). The average baseline SF-36 subscale/summary scores except for “bodily pain” were significantly lower than those of the Japanese general population ( p < 0.05). The SDI showed an inverse correlation with the SF-36 subscale/summary scores except for “vitality” and “mental component summary” at baseline, whereas the SLEDAI-2K did not. In the second year, “social functioning” and “mental component summary” of the SF-36 deteriorated among patients whose SDI or SLEDAI-2K score increased (effect sizes < −0.20). In conclusion, the SF-36 demonstrated acceptable reliability among Japanese patients with SLE. Health-related quality of life measured by the SF-36 was reduced in Japanese patients with SLE and associated with disease damage, rather than disease activity.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The reported 1- and 3-year overall survival rates after esophagectomy for stage I superficial esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (SESCC) are 95-97% and 86%, and those after definitive chemoradiotherapy (CRT) are 98% and 89%, respectively. This study was performed to elucidate the efficacy and safety of another treatment option for SESCC: endoscopic resection (ER) followed by CRT. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed the overall survival, recurrence, and grade ≥3 adverse events of consecutive patients who refused esophagectomy and underwent ER followed by CRT for SESCC from 1 January 2006 to 31 December 2012. RESULTS In total, 66 patients with SESCC underwent ER followed by CRT during the study period, and complete follow-up data were available for all patients. The median age was 67 (range, 45-82) years, and the median observation period was 51 (range, 7-103) months. Local and metastatic recurrences occurred in 2 (3%) and 6 (9%) patients, respectively, and 17 (26%) patients died. The 1-, 3-, and 5-year overall survival rates were 98%, 87%, and 75%, respectively. One of the 23 patients with mucosal cancer and 5 of 43 with submucosal cancer developed metastatic recurrences (P=0.65). Five of the 61 patients with negative vertical resection margin and 1 of 5 with positive vertical resection margin developed metastatic recurrences (P=0.39). None of the 30 patients without lymphovascular involvement developed metastatic recurrences; however, 6 of 36 patients with lymphovascular involvement developed metastatic recurrences (P=0.0098). Grade ≥3 adverse events occurred in 21 (32%) patients and all adverse events were associated with CRT, hematological adverse events in 13 (20%), and non-hematological adverse events in 9 (14%). CONCLUSIONS ER followed by CRT provides survival comparable with that of esophagectomy or definitive CRT and has a low local recurrence rate. A particularly favorable outcome is expected for cancers without lymphovascular involvement.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Three-dimensional (3D) imaging has facilitated liver resection with excision of hepatic veins by estimating the liver volume of portal and hepatic venous territories. However, 3D imaging cannot be used for real-time navigation to determine the liver transection line. This study assessed the value of indocyanine green (ICG) fluorescence imaging with hepatic vein clamping for navigation during liver transection. METHODS Consecutive patients who underwent liver resection with excision of major hepatic veins between 2012 and 2013 were evaluated using ICG fluorescence imaging after clamping veins and injecting ICG. Regional fluorescence intensity (FI) values of non-veno-occlusive regions (FINon ), veno-occlusive regions (FIVO ) and ischaemic regions (FIIS ) were calculated using luminance analysing software. RESULTS Of the 21 patients, ten, four and seven underwent limited resection, monosegmentectomy/sectionectomy and hemihepatectomy respectively, with excision of major hepatic veins. Median veno-occlusive liver volume was 80 (range 30-458) ml. Fluorescence imaging visualized veno-occlusive regions as territories with lower FI compared with non-veno-occlusive regions, and ischaemic regions as territories with no fluorescence after intravenous ICG injection. Median FIIS /FINon was lower than median FIVO /FINon (0·22 versus 0·59; P = 0·002). There were no deaths in hospital or within 30 days, and only one major complication. CONCLUSION ICG fluorescence imaging with hepatic vein clamping visualized non-veno-occlusive, veno-occlusive and ischaemic regions. This technique may guide liver transection by intraoperative navigation, enhancing the safety and accuracy of liver resection.

Abstract
Steatosis is a critical feature of liver disease and is considered to play a pivotal role in the progression of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, as well as being a surrogate marker of metabolic syndrome. The purpose of this study was to develop a non-invasive diagnostic method for assessment of liver steatosis. It is well known that ultrasonic velocity depends on materials and temperature. For example, the ultrasonic velocity in water is 1530m/s at 37°C and 1534m/s at 39°C, while that in fat is 1412m/s at 37°C and 1402m/s at 39°C. On this basis, we thought that the percentage of fat in hepatic steatosis could be assessed by detecting changes of ultrasonic in the liver, caused by warming. In order to confirm the effectiveness of this method, we obtained the ultrasonic velocity changes of tissue phantom including lard oil and the liver of living rabbit by ultrasonic warming, and then succeeded in 2-D imaging of ultrasonic velocity changes of the phantom and the liver of living rabbit. We named this the ultrasonic velocity-change method. The experimental results show the possibility that hepatic steatosis could be characterized using our novel, non-invasive method.
