Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to investigate the utility of CT quantification of lung volume for predicting critical outcomes in COVID-19 patients. METHODS This retrospective cohort study included 1200 hospitalised patients with COVID-19 from 4 hospitals. Lung fields were extracted using artificial intelligence-based segmentation, and the percentage of the predicted (%pred) total lung volume (TLC (%pred)) was calculated. The incidence of critical outcomes and posthospitalisation complications was compared between patients with low and high CT lung volumes classified based on the median percentage of predicted TLCct (n=600 for each). Prognostic factors for residual lung volume loss were investigated in 208 patients with COVID-19 via a follow-up CT after 3 months. RESULTS The incidence of critical outcomes was higher in the low TLCct (%pred) group than in the high TLCct (%pred) group (14.2% vs 3.3%, p<0.0001). Multivariable analysis of previously reported factors (age, sex, body mass index and comorbidities) demonstrated that CT-derived lung volume was significantly associated with critical outcomes. The low TLCct (%pred) group exhibited a higher incidence of bacterial infection, heart failure, thromboembolism, liver dysfunction and renal dysfunction than the high TLCct (%pred) group. TLCct (%pred) at 3 months was similarly divided into two groups at the median (71.8%). Among patients with follow-up CT scans, lung volumes showed a recovery trend from the time of admission to 3 months but remained lower in critical cases at 3 months. CONCLUSION Lower CT lung volume was associated with critical outcomes, posthospitalisation complications and slower improvement of clinical conditions in COVID-19 patients.

Abstract
Lumbar spinal alignment is crucial for spine biomechanics and is linked to various spinal pathologies. However, limited research has explored gender-specific differences using CT scans. The objective was to evaluate and compare lumbar spinal alignment between standing and sitting CT in healthy individuals, focusing on gender differences. 24 young and 25 elderly males (M) and females (F) underwent standing and sitting CT scans to assess lumbar spinal alignment. Parameters measured and compared between genders included lumbar lordosis (LL), sacral slope (SS), pelvic tilt (PT), pelvic incidence (PI), lordotic angle (LA), foraminal height (FH), and bony boundary area (BBA). Females showed significantly larger changes in SS and PT when transitioning from standing to sitting (p = .044, p = .038). A notable gender difference was also observed in the L4-S LA among the elderly, with females showing a significantly larger decrease in lordotic angle compared to males (- 14.1° vs. - 9.2°, p = .039*). Females consistently exhibited larger FH and BBA values, particularly in lower lumbar segments, which was more prominent in the elderly group (M vs. F: L4/5 BBA 80.1 mm2 [46.3, 97.8] vs. 109.7 mm2 [74.4, 121.3], p = .019 in sitting). These findings underline distinct gender-related variations in lumbar alignment and flexibility, with a focus on noteworthy changes in BBA and FH in females. Gender differences in lumbar spinal alignment were evident, with females displaying greater pelvic and sacral mobility. Considering gender-specific characteristics is crucial for assessing spinal alignment and understanding spinal pathologies. These findings contribute to our understanding of lumbar spinal alignment and have implications for gender-specific spinal conditions and treatments.

Abstract
PURPOSE Few studies have investigated the influence of posture on the external jugular and diploic venous systems in the head and cranial region. In this study, we aimed to investigate the effects of posture on these systems using upright computed tomography (CT) scanning. METHODS This study retrospectively analysed an upright CT dataset from a previous prospective study. In each patient, the diameters of the vessels in three external jugular tributaries and four diploic veins were measured using CT digital subtraction venography in both supine and sitting positions. RESULTS Amongst the 20 cases in the original dataset, we eventually investigated 19 cases due to motion artifacts in 1 case. Compared with the supine position, most of the external jugular tributaries collapsed, and the average size significantly decreased in the sitting position (decreased by 22-49% on average). In contrast, most of the diploic veins, except the occipital diploic veins, tended to increase or remain unchanged (increased by 12-101% on average) in size in the sitting position compared with the supine position. However, the changes in the veins associated with this positional shift were not uniform; in approximately 5-30% of the cases, depending on each vein, an opposite trend was observed. CONCLUSION Compared to the supine position, the contribution of external jugular tributaries to head venous drainage decreased in the sitting position, whilst most diploic veins maintained their contribution. These results could enhance our understanding of the physiology and pathophysiology of the head region in upright and sitting positions.

Abstract
The low vertebral bone computed tomography (CT) Hounsfield unit values measured on CT scans reflect low bone mineral density (BMD) and are known as diagnostic indicators for osteoporosis. The potential prognostic significance of low BMD defined by vertebral bone CT values for the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) remains unclear. This study aimed to assess the impact of BMD on the clinical outcome in Japanese patients with COVID-19 and evaluate the association between BMD and critical outcomes, such as high-flow nasal cannula, non-invasive and invasive positive pressure ventilation, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation, or death. We examined the effects of COVID-19 severity on the change of BMD over time. This multicenter retrospective cohort study enrolled 1132 inpatients with COVID-19 from the Japan COVID-19 Task Force database between February 2020 and September 2022. The bone CT values of the 4th, 7th, and 10th thoracic vertebrae were measured from chest CT images. The average of these values was defined as BMD. Furthermore, a comparative analysis was conducted between the BMD on admission and its value 3 months later. The low BMD group had a higher proportion of critical outcomes than did the high BMD group. In a subanalysis stratifying patients by epidemic wave according to onset time, critical outcomes were higher in the low BMD group in the 1st-4th waves. Multivariable logistic analysis of previously reported factors associated with COVID-19 severity revealed that low BMD, chronic kidney disease, and diabetes were independently associated with critical outcomes. At 3 months post-infection, patients with oxygen demand during hospitalization showed markedly decreased BMD than did those on admission. Low BMD in patients with COVID-19 may help predict severe disease after the disease onset. BMD may decrease over time in patients with severe COVID-19, and the impact on sequelae symptoms should be investigated in the future.

Abstract
Photoemission orbital tomography (POT) from photoelectron momentum maps (PMMs) is a powerful technique that visualizes the shape of the molecular orbitals (MOs) of molecular films. For further utilization of POT, a simple and low-cost method of POT is highly required. Here, we propose a new POT method based on the PhaseLift algorithm (PhaseLift POT). This method utilizes a lifting procedure to convert the PMM, which is a second-order polynomial of MO coefficients, into a first-order polynomial of the lifted MO coefficients and further relaxes the equality constraint for a given PMM. We also established a method to improve the accuracy of phase retrieval from the noisy PMM data by using sparsity for MO coefficients (sparse PhaseLift POT). These methods make it possible to reconstruct the three-dimensional MOs, including phases of the wave function, directly from a single experimental PMM. This method can also precisely determine the adsorption-induced molecular deformations with an accuracy of 0.05 [Å]. Furthermore, the robust sparse PhaseLift POT is robust against unavoidable noise in the experimental PMMs due to the relaxation of the matching condition for a given PMM. Therefore, this will be an innovative tool for POT, especially for analyzing the dynamics of the molecules during the chemical reaction and excitation processes.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Obesity is a risk factor of chronic kidney disease (CKD), contributing to the rising incidence of cardiometabolic diseases. Renal sinus fat (RSF) is an ectopic fat depot located at the renal cavity that could impair renal function and hemodynamic through compression of renal structures. The major purpose of this study was to explore the relationship between RSF accumulation and renal dysfunction in CKD patients. METHODS We evaluated the associations between computed tomography measured RSF volume and key clinical and histologic parameters involved in renal function and hemodynamics in 132 well-characterized CKD patients who underwent renal biopsy (median age: 62 years; 63.6% men). RESULTS RSF volume normalized by renal volume (RSF%) positively correlated with obesity-related traits such body mass index and visceral fat volume (VFV) (all P < 0.001) whereas it negatively correlated with estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) (ρ = -0.42, P < 0.001) and 24-h urinary creatinine clearance (CCr) (ρ = -0.34, P < 0.001). Notably, we found robust positive correlations between RSF% and renal resistive index (RRI) measured by the Doppler ultrasound (ρ = 0.40, P < 0.001), and the histological severity of global glomerular sclerosis (ρ = 0.48, P < 0.001) and interstitial fibrosis and tubular atrophy (IFTA) (ρ = 0.35, P < 0.001). In the multivariate linear regression models, after accounting for potential confounders including VFV, RSF% remained significantly associated with CCr (β = -0.26, P < 0.001), RRI (β = 0.17, P = 0.022), global glomerular sclerosis (β = 0.21, P = 0.002), and IFTA (β = 0.17, P = 0.012). CONCLUSION RSF accumulation is associated with renal dysfunction and hemodynamic abnormalities independent of visceral adiposity. Our results suggest that RSF may have a potential unique role in the pathogenesis of CKD.

This study aims to understand the influence of different seated postures on the geometrical relationship of the seat belt and the pelvis for various occupants using 3D upright and supine computed tomography (CT) systems. METHODS The 3D shapes of bones and soft tissues around the pelvis were acquired through a CT scan for 30 participants. They were seated in a rigid seat equipped with a lap belt simulating the front seat of a small car, and wore a lap belt in three seated postures: upright, slouched and reclined. Parameters related to the likelihood of submarining occurrences, such as belt-ASIS overlap (an index for assessing the potential engagement of the lap belt with the ASIS) and the belt-pelvis angle (the difference between the belt angle and the normal direction of the anterior edge of the ilium) were compared. RESULTS It was observed that the pelvis angle tilted rearward as the hip point was positioned forward and seatback angle increased. This can be seen in the slouched and reclined posture. The belt-pelvis angle was comparable between the slouched and the reclined postures, and was closer to zero (indicating that the lap belt path is closer to perpendicular to the anterior edge of the ilium) compared to the upright posture. In contrast, the belt-ASIS overlap increased with an increasing flesh margin of the ASIS and shallower belt angle. This suggests that the belt-pelvis angle is influenced by the seated posture whereas the belt-ASIS overlap is dependent more on an individual's anthropometry. The plot of belt-pelvis angle and belt-ASIS overlap exhibited significant variability among participants. CONCLUSIONS The belt-pelvis angle and the belt-ASIS overlap of individuals will provide valuable information for understanding the current belt-fit location and predicting submarining occurrences for individuals in various postures when designing restraint systems.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS: Muscle quantification using chest computed tomography (CT) is a useful prognostic biomarker for coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). However, no studies have evaluated the clinical course through comprehensive assessment of the pectoralis and erector spinae muscles. Therefore, we compared the impact of the areas and densities of these muscles on COVID-19 infection outcome. METHODS This multicenter retrospective cohort study was conducted by the COVID-19 Task Force. A total of 1410 patients with COVID-19 were included, and data on the area and density of the pectoralis and erector spinae muscles on chest CT were collected. The impact of each muscle parameter on the clinical outcome of COVID-19 was stratified according to sex. The primary outcome was the percentage of patients with severe disease, including those requiring oxygen supplementation and those who died. Additionally, 167 patients were followed up for changes in muscle parameters at three months and for the clinical characteristics in case of reduced CT density. RESULTS For both muscles, low density rather than muscle area was associated with COVID-19 severity. Regardless of sex, lower erector spinae muscle density was associated with more severe disease than pectoralis muscle density. The muscles were divided into two groups using the receiver operating characteristic curve of CT density, and the population was classified into four (Group A: high CT density for both muscles, Group B: low CT density for pectoralis and high for erector spinae muscle. Group C: high CT density for pectoralis and low for erector spinae muscle, Group D: low CT density for both muscles). In univariate analysis, Group D patients exhibited worse outcomes than Group A (OR: 2.96, 95% CI: 2.03-4.34 in men; OR: 3.02, 95% CI: 2.66-10.4 in women). Multivariate analysis revealed that men in Group D had a significantly more severe prognosis than those in Group A (OR: 1.82, 95% CI: 1.16-2.87). Moreover, Group D patients tended to have the highest incidence of other complications due to secondary infections and acute kidney injury during the clinical course. Longitudinal analysis of both muscle densities over three months revealed that patients with decreased muscle density over time were more likely to have severe cases than those who did not. CONCLUSIONS Muscle density, rather than muscle area, predicts the clinical outcomes of COVID-19. Integrated assessment of pectoralis and erector spinae muscle densities demonstrated higher accuracy in predicting the clinical course of COVID-19 than individual assessments.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have demonstrated efficacy over previous cytotoxic chemotherapies in clinical trials among various tumors. Despite their favorable outcomes, they are associated with a unique set of toxicities termed as immune-related adverse events (irAEs). Among the toxicities, ICI-related pneumonitis has poor outcomes with little understanding of its risk factors. This retrospective study aimed to investigate whether pre-existing interstitial lung abnormality (ILA) is a potential risk factor for ICI-related pneumonitis. MATERIALS AND METHODS Patients with non-small cell lung cancer, malignant melanoma, renal cell carcinoma, and gastric cancer, who was administered either nivolumab, pembrolizumab, or atezolizumab between September 2014 and January 2019 were retrospectively reviewed. Information on baseline characteristics, computed tomography findings before administration of ICIs, clinical outcomes, and irAEs were collected from their medical records. Pre-existing ILA was categorized based on previous studies. RESULTS Two-hundred-nine patients with a median age of 68 years were included and 23 (11.0%) developed ICI-related pneumonitis. While smoking history and ICI agents were associated with ICI-related pneumonitis (P = .005 and .044, respectively), the categories of ILA were not associated with ICI-related pneumonitis (P = .428). None of the features of lung abnormalities were also associated with ICI-related pneumonitis. Multivariate logistic analysis indicated that smoking history was the only significant predictor of ICI-related pneumonitis (P = .028). CONCLUSION This retrospective study did not demonstrate statistically significant association between pre-existing ILA and ICI-related pneumonitis, nor an association between radiologic features of ILA and ICI-related pneumonitis. Smoking history was independently associated with ICI-related pneumonitis. Further research is warranted for further understanding of the risk factors of ICI-related pneumonitis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The engagement of the lap belt with the pelvis is critical for occupant safety during vehicle frontal crashes to prevent occupant submarining. This study aims to develop a predictive model for submarining risk based on anthropometric parameters and lap belt positioning using finite element (FE) analyses. METHODS FE analyses were conducted using human body models representing various body shapes (a 50th percentile male, low and high BMI males, and a 5th percentile female) in three seated postures (standard, reclined, and slouched). The lap belt-ASIS overlap and the belt-pelvis angle were used as key parameters for predicting submarining risk. A logistic regression analysis was utilized to correlate submarining occurrence with the initial values of these two parameters at the beginning of impact. Subsequently, this submarining prediction model was applied to computer tomography (CT) measurements of human subjects in different seated postures (upright, reclined, and slouched), and submarining risks were calculated based on the developed model. RESULTS FE simulations indicated that submarining was more likely to occur as the initial belt-pelvis angle approached zero and there was a smaller initial belt-ASIS overlap. The logistic regression analysis demonstrated that the initial belt-pelvis angle and belt-ASIS overlap were statistically significant for predicting submarining risk. The derived model effectively distinguished submarining occurrence based on the initial values of these two parameters. The application of the submarining model to CT measurements of human subjects showed that submarining risk was lower in the order of upright, slouched, and reclined postures. In the reclined posture, the high submarining risk was attributed to a small belt-ASIS overlap and a rearward-tilted pelvis angle; whereas in the slouched posture, the risk was mostly associated with a rearward-tilted pelvis angle. CONCLUSIONS The submarining prediction model was developed based on the belt-pelvis angle and the belt-ASIS overlap. This predictive model may help to design restraint systems for various body types and seated postures of occupants.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Computed tomography (CT) imaging is widely used for diagnosing and determining the severity of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Chest CT imaging can be used to calculate the epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) and upper abdominal visceral adipose tissue (Abd-VAT) areas. The EAT is the main source of inflammatory cytokines involved in chest inflammatory diseases; thus, the EAT area might be a more useful severity predictor than the Abd-VAT area for COVID-19. However, to the best of our knowledge, there are no large-scale reports that sufficiently consider this issue. In addition, there are no reports on the characteristics of patients with normal body mass index (BMI) and high adipose tissue. AIM The purpose of this study was to analyze whether the EAT area, among various adipose tissues, was the most associated factor with COVID-19 severity. Using a multicenter COVID-19 patient database, we analyzed the associations of chest subcutaneous, chest visceral, abdominal subcutaneous, and Abd-VAT areas with COVID-19 outcomes. In addition, the clinical significance of central obesity, commonly disregarded by BMI, was examined. METHODS This retrospective cohort study evaluated patients with COVID-19 aged ≥18 years In Japan. Data including from chest CT images collected between February 2020 and October 2022 in four hospitals of the Japan COVID-19 Task Force were analyzed. Patient characteristics and COVID-19 severity were compared according to the adipose tissue areas (chest and abdominal subcutaneous adipose tissue [Chest-SAT and Abd-SAT], EAT, and Abd-VAT) calculated from chest CT images. RESULTS We included 1077 patients in the analysis. Patients with risk factors of severe COVID-19 such as old age, male sex, and comorbidities had significantly higher areas of EAT and Abd-VAT. High EAT area but not high Abd-VAT area was significantly associated with COVID-19 severity (adjusted odds ratio (aOR): 2.66, 95 % confidence interval [CI]: 1.19-5.93). There was no strong correlation between BMI and VAT. Patients with high VAT area accounted for 40.7 % of the non-obesity population (BMI < 25 kg/m2). High EAT area was also significantly associated with COVID-19 severity in the non-obesity population (aOR: 2.50, 95 % CI: 1.17-5.34). CONCLUSIONS Our study indicated that VAT is significantly associated with COVID-19 severity and that EAT is the best potential predictor for risk stratification in COVID-19 among adipose tissue areas. Body composition assessment using EAT is an appropriate marker for identifying obesity patients overlooked by BMI. Considering the next pandemic of the global health crisis, our findings open new avenues for implementing appropriate body composition assessments based on CT imaging.

Abstract
AIMS To assess the impact of various patient characteristics on the dynamics of liver glucose metabolism using automated multiparametric imaging with whole-body dynamic 18 F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG)-positron emission tomography (PET). MATERIALS AND METHODS We retrospectively enrolled 540 patients who underwent whole-body dynamic FDG-PET. Three quantitative indices representing hepatic glucose metabolism [mean standardized uptake value normalized by lean body mass (SULmean), metabolic glucose rate (kinetic index) and distribution volume (DV)] were measured from multiparametric PET images produced automatically based on the Patlak plot model. Patient characteristics including age, sex, body mass index, fasting time, blood glucose level, and the presence of diabetes mellitus (DM) or hepatic steatosis (HS) were collected. We examined the correlations between the characteristic factors and three quantitative indices using multiple regression analysis. RESULTS The success rate of kinetic analysis using multiparametric PET imaging was 93.3% (504/540). Hepatic SULmean was significantly correlated with age (p < .001), sex (p < .001) and blood glucose level (p = .002). DV was significantly correlated with age (p = .033), sex (p < .001), body mass index (p = .002), fasting time (p = .043) and the presence of HS (p = .002). The kinetic index was significantly correlated with age (p < .001) and sex (p = .004). In the comparison of the healthy, DM and HS groups, patients with DM had a significantly increased SULmean, whereas patients with HS had a significantly decreased DV. CONCLUSIONS Our results showed that liver glucose metabolism was influenced by various patient characteristic factors. Multiparametric FDG-PET imaging can be used to analyse the kinetics of liver glucose metabolism in routine clinical practice.

Abstract
PURPOSE One of the most widely used benchmarks of lower-limb alignment is the mechanical axis (MA), which passes through the centers of the femoral head and the ankle in the weight-bearing position. However, where the MA passes through three-dimensionally (3D) is unclear. We investigated the MA in 3D (3D-MA) in knee osteoarthritis (OA) using upright computed tomography (CT). MATERIALS AND METHODS This study included 66 varus OA knees from 38 patients [age 70.0 (64.8-77.0) years; median (interquartile range)]. The 3D-MA was determined using upright CT data and compared among Kellgren-Lawrence (KL) grades. Further, correlations between the 3D-MA and other parameters were evaluated. RESULTS The 3D-MA was located at 5.3 (1.3-14.4)% medially and 7.1 (0.7-15.3)% posteriorly on the tibial plateau in KL-1, and was translated medioposteriorly with increased KL grade. The 3D-MA in KL-3 [30.6 (22.6-42.6)% medially and 50.9 (45.8-80.2)% posteriorly] and KL-4 [56.7 (48.5-62.9)% medially and 92.3 (50.2-127.1)% posteriorly] was located extra-articularly. The mediolateral position of the 3D-MA correlated with the femorotibial angle [correlation coefficient (CC) = - 0.85, p < 0.001], and the anteroposterior position of the 3D-MA correlated with the knee flexion angle (CC = - 0.93, p < 0.001). CONCLUSION Our analysis demonstrated that the 3D-MA in low-grade OA knees passes slightly medial and posterior to the knee center, and the 3D-MA is translated medioposteriorly with the progression of knee OA. Further, the 3D-MA is translated medially with varus progression and posteriorly with the progression of knee flexion contracture.

Abstract
Context Renal sinus fat (RSF) accumulation is associated with cardiometabolic diseases, such as obesity, diabetes, hypertension, and chronic kidney disease. However, clinical implications of RSF in primary aldosteronism (PA) remain unclear. Objective We aimed to investigate relationships between RSF volume and key cardiometabolic and renin-angiotensin system (RAS) parameters in PA patients and clarify the differences in these relationships between unilateral and bilateral subtypes. Methods We analyzed data obtained from well-characterized PA patients that involved 45 unilateral (median age: 52 years; 42.2% men) and 92 bilateral patients (51 years; 42.4% men). Results RSF volume normalized by renal volume (RSF%) was greater in the unilateral group than in the bilateral group (P < .05). RSF% was greater in men than in women (P < .05). RSF% positively correlated with parameters related to cardiometabolic risk, including age, body mass index, visceral fat volume, creatinine, triglycerides/high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio, uric acid, fasting glucose, and C-reactive protein regardless of PA subtypes (all P < .05). Intriguingly, RSF% positively correlated with plasma aldosterone concentration (PAC), aldosterone-to-renin ratio, and intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH) (all P < .05) in bilateral patients but did not correlate with RAS parameters and even showed an opposite trend in unilateral patients. In subgroup analyses by sex, these distinctions became more evident in women. After adjustment for potential confounders, RSF% remained positively correlated with PAC and iPTH in bilateral patients. Conclusion Our results indicate that RSF accumulation is involved in cardiometabolic dysfunction associated with PA. However, there were distinct correlations between RSF volume and RAS parameters according to sex and PA subtypes.

Abstract
The correlation between the anatomical cardiac and electrocardiographic axes has been discussed for several years. Using upright computed tomography, this study aimed to reveal the relationship between the anatomical cardiac and electrocardiographic axes in both the supine and upright positions. Upright CT and standard supine CT were performed for healthy volunteers, following electrocardiography in both upright and supine position. On CT images, the coordinates of apex, the center of aortic valve (AV) and mitral valve (MV) were recorded, and the vectors and angles were calculated. Subcutaneous and visceral fat volume were semi-automatically calculated in a workstation. From a total 190 volunteers, 41 males were performed electrocardiography and included for this study. The QRS and anatomical axes (AV-apex and MV-apex axis) were significantly correlated in both supine and upright positions, while the angle of the AV-apex to Z axis was the most correlated (supine: r = - 0.54, p = 0.0002, upright: r = - 0.47, p = 0.0020). The anatomical axis moved in the dorsal and caudal directions from the supine to upright position. Multiple regression analysis revealed that the anatomical axis from the AV-apex to the Z-axis was determined according to age, body height, subcutaneous and visceral fat volumes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Computed tomography (CT) imaging and artificial intelligence (AI)-based analyses have aided in the diagnosis and prediction of the severity of COVID-19. However, the potential of AI-based CT quantification of pneumonia in assessing patients with COVID-19 has not yet been fully explored. This study aimed to investigate the potential of AI-based CT quantification of COVID-19 pneumonia to predict the critical outcomes and clinical characteristics of patients with residual lung lesions. METHODS This retrospective cohort study included 1,200 hospitalized patients with COVID-19 from four hospitals. The incidence of critical outcomes (requiring the support of high-flow oxygen or invasive mechanical ventilation or death) and complications during hospitalization (bacterial infection, renal failure, heart failure, thromboembolism, and liver dysfunction) was compared between the groups of pneumonia with high/low-percentage lung lesions, based on AI-based CT quantification. Additionally, 198 patients underwent CT scans 3 months after admission to analyze prognostic factors for residual lung lesions. RESULTS The pneumonia group with a high percentage of lung lesions (N = 400) had a higher incidence of critical outcomes and complications during hospitalization than the low percentage group (N = 800). Multivariable analysis demonstrated that AI-based CT quantification of pneumonia was independently associated with critical outcomes (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] 10.5, 95% confidence interval [CI] 5.59-19.7), as well as with oxygen requirement (aOR 6.35, 95% CI 4.60-8.76), IMV requirement (aOR 7.73, 95% CI 2.52-23.7), and mortality rate (aOR 6.46, 95% CI 1.87-22.3). Among patients with follow-up CT scans (N = 198), the multivariable analysis revealed that the pneumonia group with a high percentage of lung lesions on admission (aOR 4.74, 95% CI 2.36-9.52), older age (aOR 2.53, 95% CI 1.16-5.51), female sex (aOR 2.41, 95% CI 1.13-5.11), and medical history of hypertension (aOR 2.22, 95% CI 1.09-4.50) independently predicted persistent residual lung lesions. CONCLUSIONS AI-based CT quantification of pneumonia provides valuable information beyond qualitative evaluation by physicians, enabling the prediction of critical outcomes and residual lung lesions in patients with COVID-19.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) Brain metastases are common in NSCLC with up to 25% of patients having brain metastases (BMs) at the time of diagnosis and 30% developing BMs during their disease course. KRAS is an oncogenic driver in approximately 25% of lung adenocarcinomas. Genomic alterations co-occurring with KRAS are associated with distinct biological landscapes which may influence prognosis. Herein, we sought to identify correlations between genomic profiles, intracranial progression free survival (iPFS), and overall survival (OS). MATERIALS/METHODS We retrospectively reviewed 156 patients with KRAS-mutant lung adenocarcinoma BM who underwent SRS for their BMs at MSKCC from 2010-2022. Each patient had at least one tumor sample profiled with MSK-IMPACT, a custom FDA-cleared next-generation sequencing. Mutations, copy number alterations, and fusions were filtered for driver alterations using OncoKB. Survival outcomes were calculated from date of MRI indicating metastatic brain disease. RESULTS Of the 156 patients, 80 patients presented with BMs at diagnosis whereas 76 developed BMs during their disease course, with a median 2 lines of therapy prior to BM diagnosis. The most common KRAS mutation was G12C (n = 64; 41%), G12V (n = 26, 17%), G12D (n = 17; 11%), and G12A (n = 11; 7%). The most frequently co-altered genes were TP53 (n = 71, 46%), STK11 (n = 51, 33%), CDKN2A (n = 27, 17%), KEAP1 (n = 17, 11%), and SMARCA4 (n = 10, 6%). The presence of a KEAP1 co-occurring alteration was associated with inferior iPFS (HR 1.95, 95% CI 1.05 - 3.59, p = 0.035) and the presence of SMARCA4 was also associated with inferior iPFS (HR 2.28, 95% CI 1.05 - 4.95, p = 0.038). The presence of an STK11 mutation was associated with worse OS (HR 1.57, 95% 1.01 - 2.43, p = 0.045). In a multi-variate clinico-genomic model, KEAP1 and STK11 co-occurring alterations remained significantly associated with iPFS. Patients with KEAP1-altered tumors had an increased incidence of intracranial regional progression. The 24-month cumulative incidence of regional progression amongst KEAP1-altered tumors was 57% (95% CI, 29%-77%) compared with 37% (95% CI, 29%-46%) among KEAP1-wildtype tumors (P = 0.041). Patients with CDKN2A-altered tumors had an increased incidence of leptomeningeal disease (LMD) as a form of intracranial progression. The 24-month cumulative incidence of LMD amongst CDKN2A-altered tumors was 11% (95% CI, 2.7%-27%) compared with 4.1% (95% CI, 1.5%-8.8%) among CDKN2A-wildtype tumors (P = 0.023). CONCLUSION In our cohort of molecularly profiled KRAS-mutant lung adenocarcinoma BM patients treated with SRS, we found that co-occurring KEAP1 and STK11 were significantly associated with worse iPFS. We also observed that CDKN2A co-altered tumors had an increased incidence of LMD. These findings have implications for future efforts to personalize brain metastasis management based on comprehensive genomic profiling.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) Previous data have shown that inpatient radiation oncology consult services result in high-value care, with decreased length of stay, adoption and delivery of shorter fractionation schedules, and lower hospital costs. As such, institutions are increasingly creating inpatient radiation oncology services, although little is known about the allocation of limited resources for patients who may have limited prognosis, complex simulation requirements, and may have difficulty tolerating treatment. Thus, we sought to examine the utilization of simulation appointments for inpatient emergencies. MATERIALS/METHODS At our institution, inpatient consults are placed to a specialized inpatient palliative radiation oncology service, consisting of radiation oncologists specialized in metastatic and palliative RT, dedicated advanced practitioners, and nurses who specifically assess patients for medical appropriateness prior to simulation, including changes in disposition, medical stability, and adequate premedication. Electronic health record data was used to explore utilization trends of a single-institution inpatient radiation oncology consult service in 2020. Data regarding the nature and timing of consults, subsequent simulations and treatments, and patient outcomes including 14-day mortality and 30-day mortality from radiation (RT) start were assessed. Descriptive statistics are presented. RESULTS From 1/1/2020-12/31/2020, 1557 consults were placed. These consults led to 220 (14.1%) inpatient simulations. Of these planned simulations, 210 (95.5%) simulations occurred (of which 10 [4.8%] were rescheduled and eventually completed) and 179 (85.2%) completed treatment. Of 169 with mortality data available, 16 (9.5%) died within 14 days of RT start, and 41 (24.5%) died within 30 days of RT start. Of those with scheduling data (N = 193), 122 were same-day simulations (63.2%), and 507 (93.8%) occurred within 7 days or fewer. CONCLUSION Of 1557 inpatient consultations in one year, with appropriate metastatic and palliative experience, only a minority of consultations required inpatient simulation (14.1%). With appropriate nursing assessment, over 95% were able to complete simulation, with nearly two-thirds completing simulation on the same day, and nearly all patients completing simulation within a week of consultation. Most of these patients completed treatment and survived 30 days from treatment start. Thus, with highly specialized radiation oncologist clinical judgment in conjunction with appropriate nursing assessment prior to simulation scheduling, patients booked for simulation represent high-value utilization of resources.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) To describe the feasibility of treating a complex and diverse group of patients using pencil beam scanning (PBS) proton stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT: 5 or fewer fractions, with a fraction size of at least 5 Gy). MATERIALS/METHODS Our center treats on average 105-120 PBS proton treatments daily, of which 9.5% of treatment courses are proton SBRT. Statistics of disease sites, treatment planning parameters (target volume, prescriptions, number of fields, SFO vs. MFO), and treatment efficiencies (scheduled time slots, actual treatment time) are presented for 305 consecutive SBRT patients receiving 1507 fractions in the past three years. Thermoplastic masks or Vacuum-lock bags are used to immobilize SBRT patients and index the patients' treatment position. Imaging guidance of orthogonal kV images and volumetric cone-beam CT is routinely used for patient setup. RESULTS SBRT patients are grouped based on the target locations: pelvis (31%), liver (17%), thoracic (13%), spine (8%), abdominal (8%), brain (7%), non-spine bone (7%), ocular (6%), and head and neck (2%). Only 112 patients (37%) were receiving their 1st RT course, whereas 113 (37%) had one prior in-field RT course, and 80 (26%) had multiple prior in-field RT courses. The median [IQR] target volume was 65.4 [29.3, 168] cc (range: 0.3-2475 cc). 72% of cases were planned with SFO and 28% with MFO. On average, 3.76 fields (range: 2 to 12) were planned for each treatment. 44% of the treatments were planned with three or fewer fields, and 10% received more than five fields, most of which involved repainting for moving targets. Over 97% of treatments were delivered in 5 fractions, with ∼3% delivered in 3 fractions. The median [IQR] prescription per treatment was 8 [7, 10] Gy (range: 5-18 Gy per treatment). 85% (84%) of the SBRT treatments were scheduled (delivered) in a 45-minute or shorter slot, and 6% (7%) of treatments were scheduled (delivered) in over a one-hour slot, most commonly for multiple isocenter treatments. 93% of treatments were delivered within 15 minutes of the planned treatment time or shorter. Deep-inspiration breath-hold (DIBH) was applied to 45% of liver SBRT cases, with the remaining 55% planned on 4D CT with (14%) or without (86%) abdominal compression. DIBH was applied in 13% of lung SBRT cases. The application of other motion mitigation approaches, such as volumetric repainting, was determined by the target motion amplitude and whether the patient could tolerate DIBH. CONCLUSION In the most diverse and largest proton SBRT experience delivered in the world over the past 3 years, over 300 patients were treated, demonstrating the feasibility and efficiency of delivering proton SBRT in a very busy center. The planning and treatment parameter statistics reported serve as a helpful reference for the proton community.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) Invisible ink tattoos allow for setup accuracy while avoiding the cosmetic permanence of visible ink tattoos. The goal of this trial was to evaluate patient-reported preference for the use of invisible ink tattoos in a radiation oncology clinic. MATERIALS/METHODS In an IRB-approved, prospective, feasibility trial, patients at a single institution receiving pencil beam scanning proton therapy to the thorax, abdomen, or pelvis underwent invisible ink tattoo-based treatment setup. Patient preference surveys comparing visible and invisible ink tattoos were completed prior to simulation (17 questions), immediately following simulation (5 questions), and at the end of treatment (18 questions), with preference scored on a 5-point Likert scale from strongly disagree to strongly agree, and cosmesis scored on a 4-point Likert scale of excellent-good-fair-poor. Differences in distributions were examined using Wilcoxon rank-sum tests, Fisher's exact tests, or chi-square tests, where statistical significance was considered at p<0.05. RESULTS Of 107 patients screened, 102 were enrolled and 94 completed all surveys. Mean age was 55.0 years, and 58.5% were female. Most patients were white (79.1%) and non-Hispanic (92.6%). Patients most commonly had breast (34.0%), prostate (16.0%), and lung (9.6%) cancer. An average of 5 (range 3-8) invisible ink tattoos were placed per patient. Overall, 75.5% of patients reported that they would prefer to receive invisible tattoos vs. visible tattoos, and 88.3% rated the overall cosmetic outcome of invisible ink tattoo marks as excellent or good. Compared to males, females were more willing to travel farther from their home in order to avoid receiving visible tattoos (45.4% vs. 23.1%, p = 0.035) and would pay additional money to avoid receiving visible tattoos (34.5% vs. 5.1%, p = 0.002). Patients who had previously received any tattoo (cosmetic or visible RT tattoos) were more satisfied with the appearance of their invisible ink tattoos compared to those who had never previously received tattoos (82.9% vs. 61.5%, p = 0.022). Patients receiving definitive intent RT were more satisfied with the appearance of the tattoos compared to those receiving palliative intent RT (67.1% vs. 38.9%, p = 0.011). Patients with at least a college education were less satisfied with the appearance of tattoos compared to those without a college education (67.0% vs. 95.0% p = 0.018). CONCLUSION These findings demonstrate stronger avoidance of visible tattoos and patient preference for invisible tattoos. The standard incorporation of invisible ink tattoos for patient setup should be strongly considered.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Two-dimensional (2D) coronal joint line orientation on radiography under weight-bearing conditions has been widely used in evaluating knee osteoarthritis (OA). However, the effects of tibial rotation remain unknown. The present study aimed to newly define three-dimensional (3D) joint surface orientation relative to the floor as an unchangeable 3D angle unaffected by tibial rotation using upright computed tomography (CT), and to investigate correlations between 3D and 2D parameters in knee OA. METHODS Sixty-six knees in 38 patients with varus knee OA underwent standing hip-to-ankle digital radiography and upright CT. The 2D parameters measured on radiographs included femorotibial angle (FTA), tibial joint line angle (TJLA), lateral distal femoral angle (LDFA), medial proximal tibial angle (MPTA), and joint line convergence angle (JLCA). The 3D inner product angle between vectors of the tibial joint surface and the floor from CT was defined as the 3D joint surface-floor angle. RESULTS Mean 3D joint surface-floor angle was 6.0 ± 3.6°. No correlation was identified between 3D joint surface-floor angle and 2D joint line parameters, even though FTA correlated substantially with 2D joint line parameters. No significant differences in 3D joint surface-floor angle were identified among Coronal Plane Alignment of the Knee (CPAK) types. CONCLUSIONS The 3D joint surface orientation did not correlate with 2D coronal joint line orientation and was unaffected by CPAK classification types. This finding suggests that current 2D evaluations should be reconsidered for a better understanding of true knee joint line orientation.

Abstract
In the analysis of the shoulder complex, the sequential changes occurring in the sternoclavicular and acromioclavicular joints during active shoulder motion are challenging to track. This study aimed to investigate the in vivo sternoclavicular and acromioclavicular joint motions during active elevation, including the sequential changes in these joint spaces using upright four-dimensional computed tomography (4DCT). Bilateral shoulders of 12 healthy volunteers upright 4DCT were obtained during active elevation similar to a "hands up" motion. The sternoclavicular and acromioclavicular rotation angles, joint distances, and closest points on the clavicle relative to the thorax and scapula were evaluated during 10°-140° of humerothoracic elevation. During humerothoracic elevation, the clavicle elevated, retracted, and rotated posteriorly relative to the thorax, whereas the scapula rotated upwardly, internally, and posteriorly relative to the clavicle. All the sternoclavicular and acromioclavicular joint rotation angles were significantly different at ≥ 30°-50° of humerothoracic elevation compared with 10° of humerothoracic elevation. The mean sternoclavicular and acromioclavicular joint distances were 2.2 ± 1.1 mm and 1.6 ± 0.9 mm, respectively. The closest points were located on the anteroinferior part of the medial and lateral clavicle in the sternoclavicular and acromioclavicular joints, respectively. Significant differences were observed in the acromioclavicular joint distance and anterior/posterior movements of the closest points in the sternoclavicular and acromioclavicular joints compared with 10° of humerothoracic elevation. Our sternoclavicular and acromioclavicular closest point results indicate that the impingement tends to occur at the anteroinferior part of the medial and lateral aspects of the clavicle and may be related to osteoarthritis.

Abstract
Cystic fibrosis is an autosomal recessive genetic disorder that damages the exocrine function of the body, resulting in alterations of multiple organs. In the respiratory system, it is known to cause bronchiectasis, recurrent bronchitis, and pneumonia; however, to the best of our knowledge, there are no reported cases of pulmonary arteriovenous malformations associated with this disease. Herein, we report a case of cystic fibrosis with multiple pulmonary arteriovenous malformations. A 16-year-old girl, who has been monitored since childhood for pancreatitis of unknown cause, experienced respiratory symptoms and hypoxemia (PaO2 = 57 mmHg). At 13 years of age, chest computed tomography revealed bronchiectasis, bronchial wall thickening, and tree-in-bud sign. Genetic testing was performed, and the patient was diagnosed with cystic fibrosis. However, the computed tomography scan also showed incidental nodular lesions in the left superior and both the inferior pulmonary lobes, suggesting multiple arteriovenous malformations. Dynamic computed tomography was performed which, confirmed the presence of 3 pulmonary arteriovenous malformations. Coil embolization was performed on all lesions, and the hypoxemia was corrected. Marked hypoxemia in a patient with cystic fibrosis may not be explained only by the presence of bronchiectasis and/or bronchial wall thickening; in such cases, it may be necessary to examine possible additional findings on computed tomography images, such as arteriovenous malformations.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the performance of a deep learning-based computer-aided detection (CAD) software for detecting pulmonary nodules, masses, and consolidation on chest radiographs (CRs) and to examine the effect of readers' experience and data characteristics on the sensitivity and final diagnosis. MATERIALS AND METHODS The CRs of 453 patients were retrospectively selected from two institutions. Among these CRs, 60 images with abnormal findings (pulmonary nodules, masses, and consolidation) and 140 without abnormal findings were randomly selected for sequential observer-performance testing. In the test, 12 readers (three radiologists, three pulmonologists, three non-pulmonology physicians, and three junior residents) interpreted 200 images with and without CAD, and the findings were compared. Weighted alternative free-response receiver operating characteristic (wAFROC) figure of merit (FOM) was used to analyze observer performance. The lesions that readers initially missed but CAD detected were stratified by anatomic location and degree of subtlety, and the adoption rate was calculated. Fisher's exact test was used for comparison. RESULTS The mean wAFROC FOM score of the 12 readers significantly improved from 0.746 to 0.810 with software assistance (P = 0.007). In the reader group with < 6 years of experience, the mean FOM score significantly improved from 0.680 to 0.779 (P = 0.011), while that in the reader group with ≥ 6 years of experience increased from 0.811 to 0.841 (P = 0.12). The sensitivity of the CAD software and the adoption rate for the lesions with subtlety level 2 or 3 (obscure) lesions were significantly lower than for level 4 or 5 (distinct) lesions (50% vs. 93%, P < 0.001; and 55% vs. 74%, P = 0.04, respectively). CONCLUSION CAD software use improved doctors' performance in detecting nodules/masses and consolidation on CRs, particularly for non-expert doctors, by preventing doctors from missing distinct lesions rather than helping them to detect obscure lesions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In older people, frailty has been recognized as an important prognostic factor. However, only a few studies have focused on multidimensional frailty as a predictor of mortality and readmission among inpatients with pneumonia. OBJECTIVE The present study aimed to assess the association between preadmission frailty and clinical outcomes after the hospitalization of older patients with pneumonia. DESIGN Single-center, retrospective case-control study. SETTING Acute phase hospital at Kobe, Japan. PARTICIPANTS The present study included 654 consecutive older inpatients with pneumonia. MEASUREMENTS Frailty status before admission was assessed using total Kihon Checklist (KCL) score, which has been used as a self-administered questionnaire to assess comprehensive frailty, including physical, social, and cognitive status. The primary outcome was a composited 6-month mortality and readmission after discharge. RESULTS In total, 330 patients were analyzed (median age: 79 years, male: 70.4%, median total KCL score: 10 points), of which 68 were readmitted and 10 died within 6 months. After multivariate analysis, total KCL score was associated with a composited 6-month mortality and readmission (adjusted hazard ratio, 1.07; 95% confidence interval, 1.02-1.12; p = 0.006). The cutoff value for total KCL score determined by receiver operating characteristic curve analysis was 15 points (area under the curve = 0.610). The group with a total KCL score ≥ 15 points had significantly higher readmission or mortality rates than the groups with a total KCL score < 15 points (p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Preadmission frailty status in older patients with pneumonia was an independent risk factor for readmission and survival after hospitalization.

Abstract
Although shoulder kinematics have been analyzed by various methods, dynamic shoulder motion is difficult to track. This study aimed to validate the shoulder kinematic analysis using upright four-dimensional computed tomography (4DCT) and to compare the results with optical three-dimensional motion capture. During active elevation, bilateral shoulders of 10 healthy volunteers were tracked using 4DCT and motion capture. The scapulothoracic and glenohumeral rotations and the scapulohumeral rhythm (SHR) at each position were calculated, and the differences between 4DCT and motion capture were compared. During 10-140° of humerothoracic elevation, the scapulothoracic joint showed upward rotation, internal rotation, and posterior tilting, and the glenohumeral joint showed elevation, external rotation, and anterior plane of elevation in both analyses. In scapulothoracic rotations, the mean differences between the two analyses were -2.6° in upward rotation, 13.9° in internal rotation, and 6.4° in posterior tilting, and became significant with humerothoracic elevation ≥110° in upward rotation, ≥50° in internal rotation, and ≥100° in posterior tilting. In glenohumeral rotations, the mean differences were 3.7° in elevation, 9.1° in internal rotation, and -8.8° in anterior plane of elevation, and became significant with humerothoracic elevation ≥110° in elevation, ≥90° in internal rotation, and ≥100° in anterior plane of elevation. The mean overall SHRs were 1.8 in 4DCT and 2.4 in motion capture, and the differences became significant with humerothoracic elevation ≥100°. The 4DCT analysis of in vivo shoulder kinematics using upright computed tomography scanner is feasible, but the values were different from those by skin-based analysis at the elevated arm positions.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Although better diet quality is inversely associated with mortality risk, the association between diet quality and mortality remains unclear in frail and non-frail older adults. Thus, we aimed to examine this association in older Japanese adults. DESIGN A prospective cohort study. SETTING AND PARTICIPANTS We used the data of 8,051 Japanese older adults aged ≥65 years in the Kyoto-Kameoka study. MESUREMENTS Dietary intake was estimated using a validated food frequency questionnaire. Diet quality was evaluated by calculating the adherence scores to the Japanese Food Guide Spinning Top (range, 0 [worst] to 80 [best]), which were stratified into quartiles. Frailty status was assessed using the validated self-administered Kihon Checklist (KCL) and the Fried phenotype (FP) model. Survival data were collected between February 15, 2012 and November 30, 2016. Statistical analysis was performed using the multivariate Cox proportional hazard analysis and the spline model. RESULTS During the median 4.75-year follow-up (36,552 person-years), we recorded 661 deaths. After adjusting for confounders, compared with the bottom adherence score quartile, the top quartile was associated with lower hazard ratio (HR) of mortality in frailty (HR, 0.73; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.54-1.00) and non-frailty, as defined by the KCL (HR, 0.72; 95% CI, 0.52-1.01). In the spline model, regardless of frailty status defined by the KCL and FP model, adherence score showed a strongly dose-dependent inverse association with mortality up to approximately 55 points; however, no significant differences were observed thereafter. This association was similar to the results obtained in individuals with physical, cognitive, and depression as domains of KCL in the spline model. CONCLUSIONS Our findings demonstrate an L-shaped association between diet quality and mortality in both frail and non-frail individuals. This study may provide important knowledge for improving poor diet quality in older individuals with frailty or domains of frailty.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Upright computed tomography (CT) can detect slight changes particularly in the superior vena cava (SVC) volume in healthy volunteers under the influence of gravity. This study aimed to evaluate whether upright CT-based measurements of the SVC area are useful for assessing mean right atrial pressure (mRAP) in patients with heart failure. METHODS We performed CT in both standing and supine positions to evaluate the SVC (directly below the junction of the bilateral brachiocephalic veins) and inferior vena cava (IVC; at the height of the diaphragm) areas and analyzed their relationship with mRAP, measured by right heart catheterization in 23 patients with heart failure. RESULTS The median age of enrolled patients was 60 (51-72) years, and 69.6% were male. The median mRAP was 3 (1-7) mmHg. The correlations between the standing position SVC and IVC areas and mRAP were stronger than those in the supine position (SVC, ρ = 0.68, p < 0.001 and ρ = 0.43, p = 0.040; IVC, ρ = 0.57, p = 0.005 and ρ = 0.46, p = 0.026; respectively). Furthermore, the SVC area in the standing position was most accurate in identifying patients with higher mRAP (> 5 mmHg) (SVC standing, area under the receiver operating characteristic curve [AUC] = 0.91, 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.77-1.00; SVC supine, AUC = 0.78, 95% CI, 0.59-0.98; IVC standing, AUC = 0.77, 95% CI, 0.55-0.98; IVC supine, AUC = 0.72, 95% CI, 0.49-0.94). The inter- and intraobserver agreements (evaluated by intraclass correlation coefficients) for all CT measurements were 0.962-0.991. CONCLUSIONS Upright CT-based measurement of the SVC area can be useful for non-invasive estimation of mRAP under the influence of gravity in patients with heart failure. KEY POINTS • This study showed that the superior vena cava (SVC) area in the standing position was most accurate in identifying patients with heart failure with higher mean right atrial pressure. • Upright computed tomography-based measurements of the SVC area can be a promising non-invasive method for estimating mean right atrial pressure under the influence of gravity in patients with heart failure. • Clinical management of patients with heart failure based on this non-invasive modality may lead to early assessment of conditional changes and reduced hospitalization for exacerbation of heart failure.

Abstract
Upright computed tomography (CT) provides physiologically relevant images of daily life postures (sitting and standing). The volume of the human airway in sitting or standing positions remains unclear, and no clinical study to date has compared the inspiratory and expiratory airway volumes and luminal areas among standing, sitting, and supine positions. In this prospective study, 100 asymptomatic volunteers underwent both upright (sitting and standing positions) and conventional (supine position) CT during inspiration and expiration breath-holds and the pulmonary function test (PFT) within 2 h of CT. We compared the inspiratory/expiratory airway volumes and luminal areas on CT among the three positions and evaluated the correlation between airway volumes in each position on CT and PFT measurements. The inspiratory and expiratory airway volumes were significantly higher in the sitting and standing positions than in the supine position (inspiratory, 4.6% and 2.5% increase, respectively; expiratory, 14.9% and 13.4% increase, respectively; all P < 0.001). The inspiratory and expiratory luminal areas of the trachea, bilateral main bronchi, and average third-generation airway were significantly higher in the sitting and standing positions than in the supine position (inspiratory, 4.2‒10.3% increases, all P < 0.001; expiratory, 6.4‒12.8% increases, all P < 0.0001). These results could provide important clues regarding the pathogenesis of orthopnea. Spearman's correlation coefficients between the inspiratory airway volume on CT and forced vital capacity and forced expiratory volume in 1 s on PFT were numerically higher in the standing position than in the supine position (0.673 vs. 0.659 and 0.669 vs. 0.643, respectively); however, no statistically significant differences were found. Thus, the airway volumes on upright and conventional supine CT were moderately correlated with the PFT measurements.

Abstract
Background Subclinical leaflet thrombosis, characterized by hypoattenuated leaflet thickening (HALT) on multidetector computed tomography, is common after transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). Because little is known about the long-term natural history of subclinical HALT, we aimed to investigate this in patients who underwent TAVR without using additional anticoagulation. Methods and Results We retrospectively evaluated patients who underwent TAVR with the Edwards SAPIEN-XT at our institute between October 2013 and December 2015. Patients were grouped according to the presence or absence of HALT within 1 year after TAVR (HALT and No-HALT groups). The primary outcome, defined as the composite of all-cause mortality, heart failure readmission, and ischemic stroke, was compared. Valve performance was assessed over time by transthoracic echocardiography. Among 124 patients (men: 29.1%; median age, 85 years), 27 (21.8%) showed HALT on multidetector computed tomography within 1 year after TAVR. No patient required additional anticoagulation for treating HALT because of the absence of valve-related symptomatic deterioration. During the median follow-up period of 4.7 years (interquartile range, 4.0-5.6), the rate of primary outcome and valve performance was not statistically different between the 2 groups (37.0% versus 38.1%; log-rank test P=0.92; mean pressure gradient, 9 mm Hg [8-14 mm Hg] versus 10 mm Hg [7-15 mm Hg]; P=0.51, respectively). Conclusions Approximately 20% of patients after TAVR had HALT within 1 year; however, that did not change the risk of subsequent adverse cardiovascular events or the valve performance with statistical significance for up to 5 years despite no additional anticoagulation therapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Correlations between upright CT and pulmonary function test (PFT) measurements, and differences in lung/lobe/airway volumes between supine and standing positions in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) remain unknown. OBJECTIVES The study aimed to evaluate correlations between lung/airway volumes on both supine and upright CT and PFT measurements in patients with COPD, and compare CT-based inspiratory/expiratory lung/lobe/airway volumes between the two positions. METHODS Forty-eight patients with COPD underwent both conventional supine and upright CT in a randomized order during inspiration and expiration breath-holds, and PFTs within 2 h. We measured the lung/lobe/airway volumes on both CT. RESULTS The correlation coefficients between total lung volumes on inspiratory CT in supine/standing position and PFT total lung capacity and vital capacity were 0.887/0.920 and 0.711/0.781, respectively; between total lung volumes on expiratory CT in supine/standing position and PFT functional residual capacity and residual volume, 0.676/0.744 and 0.713/0.739, respectively; and between airway volume on inspiratory CT in supine/standing position and PFT forced expiratory volume in 1 s, 0.471/0.524, respectively. Inspiratory/expiratory bilateral upper and right lower lobe, bilateral lung, and airway volumes were significantly higher in the standing than supine position (3.6-21.2% increases, all p < 0.05); however, inspiratory/expiratory right middle lobe volumes were significantly lower in the standing position (4.6%/15.9% decreases, respectively, both p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Upright CT-based volumes were more correlated with PFT measurements than supine CT-based volumes in patients with COPD. Unlike other lobes and airway, inspiratory/expiratory right middle lobe volumes were significantly lower in the standing than supine position.

Abstract
No clinical study has compared lung or lobe volumes on computed tomography (CT) between the supine and standing positions in patients with idiopathic lung fibrosis (IPF). This study aimed to compare lung and lobe volumes between the supine and standing positions and evaluate the correlations between the supine/standing lung volumes on CT and pulmonary function in patients with IPF. Twenty-three patients with IPF underwent a pulmonary function test and both low-dose conventional (supine position) and upright CT (standing position) during inspiration breath-holds. The volumes of the total lungs and lobes were larger in the standing than in the supine position in patients with IPF (all p < 0.05). Spearman's correlation coefficients between total lung volumes on chest CT in supine/standing positions and vital capacity (VC) or forced VC (FVC) were 0.61/0.79 or 0.64/0.80, respectively. CT-based volumes on upright CT were better correlated with VC and FVC than those on supine CT. Lung and lobe volumes in the standing position may be useful biomarkers to assess disease severity or therapeutic effect in patients with IPF.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Treatment options for patients with chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension ineligible for pulmonary endarterectomy (inoperable CTEPH) include balloon pulmonary angioplasty (BPA) and riociguat. However, these two treatment options have not been compared prospectively. We aimed to compare the safety and efficacy of BPA and riociguat in patients with inoperable CTEPH. METHODS This open-label, randomised controlled trial was conducted at four high-volume CTEPH centres in Japan. Patients aged 20-80 years with inoperable CTEPH (mean pulmonary arterial pressure ≥25 to <60 mm Hg and pulmonary artery wedge pressure ≤15 mm Hg) and WHO functional class II or III were randomly assigned (1:1) to BPA or riociguat via a computer program located at the registration centre using a minimisation method with biased-coin assignment. In the BPA group, the aim was for BPA to be completed within 4 months of the initial date of the first procedure. BPA was repeated until mean pulmonary arterial pressure decreased to less than 25 mm Hg. The frequency of BPA procedures depended on the difficulty and number of the lesions. In the riociguat group, 1·0 mg riociguat was administered orally thrice daily. When the systolic blood pressure was maintained at 95 mm Hg or higher, the dose was increased by 0·5 mg every 2 weeks up to a maximum of 2·5 mg thrice daily; dose adjustment was completed within 4 months of the date of the first dose. The primary endpoint was change in mean pulmonary arterial pressure from baseline to 12 months, measured in the full analysis set (patients who were enrolled and randomly assigned to one of the study treatments, and had at least one assessment after randomisation). BPA-related complications and indices related to clinical worsening were recorded throughout the study period. Adverse events were recorded throughout the study period and evaluated in the safety analysis set (patients who were enrolled and randomely assigned to one of the study treatments, and had received part of or all the study treatments). This trial is registered in the Japan Registry of Clinical Trials (jRCT; jRCTs031180239) and is completed. FINDINGS Between Jan 8, 2016, and Oct 31, 2019, 61 patients with inoperable CTEPH were enrolled and randomly assigned to BPA (n=32) or riociguat (n=29). Patients in the BPA group underwent an average of 4·7 (SD 1·6) BPA procedures. In the riociguat group, the mean maintenance dose was 7·0 (SD 1·0) mg/day at 12 months. At 12 months, mean pulmonary arterial pressure had improved by -16·3 (SE 1·6) mm Hg in the BPA group and -7·0 (1·5) mm Hg in the riociguat group (group difference -9·3 mm Hg [95% CI -12·7 to -5·9]; p<0·0001). A case of clinical worsening of pulmonary hypertension occurred in the riociguat group, whereas none occurred in the BPA group. The most common adverse event was haemosputum, haemoptysis, or pulmonary haemorrhage, affecting 14 patients (44%) in the BPA group and one (4%) in the riociguat group. In 147 BPA procedures done in 31 patients, BPA-related complications were observed in 17 procedures (12%) in eight patients (26%). INTERPRETATION Compared with riociguat, BPA was associated with a greater improvement in mean pulmonary arterial pressure in patients with inoperable CTEPH at 12 months, although procedure-related complications were reported. These findings support BPA as a reasonable option for inoperable CTEPH in centres with experienced BPA operators, with attention to procedure-related complications. FUNDING Bayer Yakuhin.

Abstract
Background The clinical impact of interstitial lung abnormalities (ILAs) on poor prognosis has been reported in many studies, but risk stratification in ILA will contribute to clinical practice. Purpose To investigate the association of traction bronchiectasis/bronchiolectasis index (TBI) with mortality and clinical outcomes in individuals with ILA by using the COPDGene cohort. Materials and Methods This study was a secondary analysis of prospectively collected data. Chest CT scans of participants with ILA for traction bronchiectasis/bronchiolectasis were evaluated and outcomes were compared with participants without ILA from the COPDGene study (January 2008 to June 2011). TBI was classified as follows: TBI-0, ILA without traction bronchiectasis/bronchiolectasis; TBI-1, ILA with bronchiolectasis but without bronchiectasis or architectural distortion; TBI-2, ILA with mild to moderate traction bronchiectasis; and TBI-3, ILA with severe traction bronchiectasis and/or honeycombing. Clinical outcomes and overall survival were compared among the TBI groups and the non-ILA group by using multivariable linear regression model and Cox proportional hazards model, respectively. Results Overall, 5295 participants (median age, 59 years; IQR, 52-66 years; 2779 men) were included, and 582 participants with ILA and 4713 participants without ILA were identified. TBI groups were associated with poorer clinical outcomes such as quality of life scores in the multivariable linear regression model (TBI-0: coefficient, 3.2 [95% CI: 0.6, 5.7; P = .01]; TBI-1: coefficient, 3.3 [95% CI: 1.1, 5.6; P = .003]; TBI-2: coefficient, 7.6 [95% CI: 4.0, 11; P < .001]; TBI-3: coefficient, 32 [95% CI: 17, 48; P < .001]). The multivariable Cox model demonstrated that ILA without traction bronchiectasis (TBI-0-1) and with traction bronchiectasis (TBI-2-3) were associated with shorter overall survival (TBI-0-1: hazard ratio [HR], 1.4 [95% CI: 1.0, 1.9; P = .049]; TBI-2-3: HR, 3.8 [95% CI: 2.6, 5.6; P < .001]). Conclusion Traction bronchiectasis/bronchiolectasis was associated with poorer clinical outcomes compared with the group without interstitial lung abnormalities; TBI-2 and 3 were associated with shorter survival. © RSNA, 2022 Online supplemental material is available for this article.

Abstract
Motion capture systems using skin markers are widely used to evaluate scapular kinematics. However, soft-tissue artifact (STA) is a major limitation, and there is insufficient knowledge of the marker movements from the original locations. This study explores a scapular STA, including marker movements with shoulder elevation using upright computed tomography (CT). Ten healthy males (twenty shoulders in total) had markers attached to scapular bony landmarks and underwent upright CT in the reference and elevated positions. Marker movements were calculated and compared between markers. The bone-based and marker-based scapulothoracic rotation angles were also compared in both positions. The median marker movement distances were 30.4 mm for the acromial angle, 53.1 mm for the root of the scapular spine, and 70.0 mm for the inferior angle. Marker movements were significantly smaller on the superolateral aspect of the scapula, and superior movement was largest in the directional movement. Scapulothoracic rotation angles were significantly smaller in the marker-based rotation angles than in the bone-based rotation angles of the elevated position. We noted that the markers especially did not track the inferior movement of the scapular motion with shoulder elevation, resulting in an underestimation of the marker-based rotation angles.

Abstract
Only few studies have assessed brain shift caused by positional change. This study aimed to identify factors correlated with a large postneurosurgical positional brain shift (PBS). Sixty-seven patients who underwent neurosurgical procedures had upright computed tomography (CT) scan using settings similar to those of conventional supine CT. The presence of a clinically significant PBS, defined as a brain shift of ≥ 5 mm caused by positional change, was evaluated. The clinical and radiological findings were investigated to identify factors associated with a larger PBS. As a result, twenty-one patients had a clinically significant PBS. The univariate analysis showed that supratentorial lesion location, intra-axial lesion type, craniectomy procedure, and residual intracranial air were the predictors of PBS. Based on the multivariate analysis, craniectomy procedure (p < 0.001) and residual intracranial air volume (p = 0.004) were the predictors of PBS. In a sub-analysis of post-craniectomy patients, PBS was larger in patients with supratentorial craniectomy site and parenchymal brain injury. A large craniectomy area and long interval from craniectomy were correlated with the extent of PBS. In conclusion, patients who undergo craniectomy and those with residual intracranial air can present with a large PBS. In post-craniectomy patients, the predisposing factors of a large PBS are supratentorial craniectomy, presence of parenchymal injury, large skull defect area, and long interval from craniectomy. These findings can contribute to safe mobilization among postneurosurgical patients and the risk assessment of sinking skin flap syndrome.

Abstract
BackgroundRecently, the disease activity of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) was improved due to the ‘treat-to-target’ strategy. However, some patients remain various symptoms despite recommended treatment was performed. Then, the term of ‘difficult-to-treat RA (D2TRA)’ is widely recognized. Janus kinase inhibitor (JAKi) might be effective for D2TRA patients, because JAKi can simultaneously block the function of multiple cytokines.ObjectivesThe aim of this study was to evaluate drug retention rate and effectiveness of JAKi in patients with D2TRA.MethodsThis study included 220 RA patients (tofacitinib 101, baricitinib 83, upadacitinib 20, peficitinib 14, filgotinib 2) treated with JAKi. Sixty-two patients were treated as first line bDMARDs/JAKi (1st group), 57 patients were treated as second line bDMARDs/ JAKi (2nd group), 101 patients were treated as third and more bDMARDs/ JAKi. In these 101 patients, 25 patients did not met D2TRA criteria (non-D2TRA group) and 76 patients met D2TRA criteria (D2TRA group). Drug retention rate and effectiveness of JAKi were evaluated during 24 weeks in each group.ResultsUsage rate of methotrexate was lower and dosage of glucocorticoid was higher in D2TRA group than in other groups (Table 1). Drug retention rate at 24 weeks was 87.1% (54/62) in 1st group, 80.1% (46/57) in 2nd group, 88% (22/25) in non-D2TRA group, 61.8% (47/76) in D2TRA group. Drug retention rate was lower in D2TRA group compared to 1st group, 2nd group and non-DT2RA group (p<0.01, p=0.03, p=0.01). DAS28-CRP was 4.4, 4.0, 3.9, 4.4 at baseline, 3.0, 3.0, 3.3, 3.5 at 4 weeks, 2.5, 2.9, 2.7, 3.3 at 12 weeks, 2.5, 3.0, 2.9, 3.2 at 24 weeks in 1st group, 2nd group, non-D2TRA group and D2TRA group, respectively. Improvement ratio of DAS28-CRP was 32.9, 27.6, 20.4, 19.3 % at 4 weeks, 40.8, 26.5, 28.1, 19.5 % at 12 weeks, 40.8, 24.6, 18.7, 24.7 % at 24 weeks. DAS28-CRP was improved in all groups. Altough 1st group showed higher improvement ratio of DAS28-CRP at 24 weeks compared to 2nd group, non-DT2RA group and D2TRA group (p<0.01, p<0.01, p<0.01), there was no differences between DT2RA group and 2nd group or non-D2TRA group (p=0.95, p=0.48). SDAI was 22.9, 19.9, 18.3, 23.9 at baseline, 11.8, 11.9, 13.3, 14.4 at 4 weeks, 7.9, 11.3, 8.4, 13.3 at 12 weeks, 8.5, 11.5, 9.7, 12.6 at 24 weeks. CDAI was 21.3, 18.8, 17.6, 21.8 at baseline, 11.3, 11.2, 12.5, 13.9 at 4 weeks, 7.5, 10.9, 8.0, 12.3 at 12 weeks, 8.1, 10.7, 8.6, 12.1 at 24 weeks. HAQ was 1.15, 0.99, 0.89, 1.39 at baseline, 0.84, 0.76, 0.93, 1.22 at 4 weeks, 0.79, 0.84, 0.77, 1.17 at 12 weeks, 0.76, 0.79, 0.76, 1.14 at 24 weeks. Improvement rate of HAQ at 24 weeks were 44.3%, 23.9%, 21.2%, 8.1%.Table 1.Baseline characteristics of RA patients1st group (n=62)2nd group (n=57)non-D2TRA group (n=25)D2TRA group (n=76)Age (years)64.9 ± 14.866.1 ± 11.564.6 ± 16.163.0 ± 15.0Female (%)75.879.096.080.3Disease durations (years)10.4 ± 11.717.6 ± 17.622.6 ± 22.416.3 ± 15.7RF (IU/ml)296.3 ± 1153.8314.9 ± 1037.7262.4 ± 375.9305.9 ± 819.6RF positive ratio (%)81.878.479.275.7Anti CCP antibody (U/ml)221.8 ± 327.2157.8 ± 258.795.9 ± 101.6191.8 ± 250.6Anti CCP antibody positive ratio (%)79.679.672.283.3CRP (U/ml)1.5 ± 2.11.1 ± 2.01.6 ± 1.61.8 ± 2.9MMP-3 (ng/ml)185.7 ± 167.6146.7 ± 122.1190.1 ± 152.6268.0 ± 451.2DAS28-CRP4.3 ± 1.24.1 ± 1.33.9 ± 1.44.4 ± 1.3SDAI21.8 ± 12.221.7 ± 13.118.4 ± 13.023.9 ± 12.8CDAI20.3 ± 11.320.7 ± 12.717.6 ± 12.822.1 ± 12.2HAQ1.1 ± 0.81.2 ± 1.00.9 ± 0.81.4 ± 1.1MTX use (%)69.463.25647.4MTX (mg/day)10.7 ± 3.410.4 ± 3.58.8 ± 3.59.0 ± 4.3Glucocorticoid use (%)29.136.81646.1Glucocorticoid dose (mg/day)3.3 ± 2.13.0 ± 1.53.5 ± 1.95.1 ± 2.8ConclusionDrug retention rate of JAKi in treatment of D2TRA group were lower than that of 1st group, 2nd group, and non-D2TRA group.
