Abstract
BACKGROUND The evaluation of impaired self-awareness (ISA) after brain injury is not widespread in Japan, and there is a lack of Japanese assessments of self-awareness. OBJECTIVES To translate the original version of the Awareness Questionnaire (AQ), an instrument for assessing ISA, into Japanese using a validated method and examine its reliability and validity in inpatients with stroke. METHODS This cross-sectional, prospective study enrolled 130 participants. The double-translation process was used to develop the Japanese version of the AQ. RESULTS Data were collected from 120 patients. High intra-rater reliability was observed for the patient (Cronbach's α = 0.824) and clinician samples (Cronbach's α = 0.933). High intra- and inter-rater reliability were found for all AQ items [interclass coefficient (ICC) (1, 1) = 0.828, ICC (2, 1) = 0.852, ICC (3, 1) = 0.848]; however, the sub-item analysis revealed only moderate reliability. Validity assessment revealed a low but significant positive correlation (r = 0.209; p < 0.05) between the Japanese version of the AQ and the Japanese version of the Self-Regulation Skills Interview and a low but significant negative correlation (r = 0.197; p < 0.05) between the Japanese version of the AQ and the Mini-Mental State Examination. CONCLUSIONS The Japanese version of the AQ was developed and applied to stroke patients, but the concept of post-stroke ISA may differ from ISA after traumatic brain injury, highlighting the need for a stroke-specific version of the AQ.

Abstract
Previous studies have reported the effects of vibratory stimulation (VS) therapy in reducing upper extremity spasticity after stroke. However, the effective location of the VS in patients with stroke remains unclear. This study aimed to determine the VS location that is most effective in reducing post-stroke finger and wrist flexor spasticity. We enrolled 27 consecutive patients with stroke and upper extremity spasticity in this retrospective observational study. The participants received stretching, tendon vibration, and muscle belly vibration for 5 min over a period of 3 days. To evaluate spasticity, we assessed the Modified Ashworth Scale score before and immediately after each treatment and immediately after voluntary finger flexion. Participants who received tendon vibration showed greater improvement in flexor tone in the fingers than participants who received stretching and muscle belly vibration (P < 0.05 and < 0.001, respectively). Participants who underwent VS showed no significant improvement in the wrist flexor tone compared to those who underwent stretching. Our results suggest that the tendon may be the most effective location for treating spasticity of the finger flexor muscles and that VS may not significantly improve spasticity of the wrist flexors more than stretching.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This scoping review aims to map the literature on goal-setting tools in adult rehabilitation, exploring their characteristics, target users and supporting evidence to inform practice and future research in this area. METHODS We completed a comprehensive search of four databases to identify relevant articles on tools for goal setting in rehabilitation. We followed Arkey and O'Malley's scoping review process to guide article selection, data extraction and data analysis. RESULTS We identified a total of 165 studies that reported on 55 different goal-setting tools, including tools for goal selection and goal documentation (n = 31), goal setting and intervention planning (n = 15), and for measuring the quality of the goal-setting process (n = 9). Over half of the tools were primarily designed for use in rehabilitation of physical disabilities (n = 32). Some tools fell under multiple sub-categories based on their characteristics as follows: 22 framework tools, 12 interview tools, 9 outcome measurement tools for goal achievement, 6 outcome measurement tools for goal quality and 25 documentation tools. The majority of goal-setting instruments targeted goals at the level of activity and participation (n = 51) and aimed to facilitate a client-centred or shared decision-making approach to rehabilitation planning (n = 46). CONCLUSIONS This study provides a comprehensive overview of existing goal-setting tools, highlighting their characteristics, target users and identified needs. These findings can enhance practitioners' awareness of the range of goal-setting tools available and can enable more effective utilization of these tools in clinical practice. Further research should investigate how clinicians can combine multiple tools to deliver goal setting.

Abstract
PURPOSE This review investigated the effectiveness of adjuvant therapy combined with constraint-induced movement therapy (CIMT) in improving the paretic upper limb functionality in adults with stroke sequelae during the subacute to chronic rehabilitation phase. MATERIALS AND METHODS In this systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCT), electronic databases, including PubMed, Web of Science, CINAHL, and MEDLINE, were searched. We included RCTs that investigated the outcomes of adjuvant therapy (i.e. other therapies) added to CIMT compared with CIMT alone. Key trial findings were qualitatively synthesized and analyzed. This meta-analysis examined variables, such as mean scores and standard deviations, using the following outcome measures: Fugl-Meyer Assessment (FMA) upper limb items, Action Research Arm Test (ARAT), Amount of Use (AOU) of Motor Activity Log (MAL), and Quality of Movement (QOM) of MAL. RESULTS Eighteen eligible RCTs were included in the analysis. Adding CIMT to adjunctive therapy significantly improved FMA compared with CIMT alone (mean difference [MD] 4.02, 95% confidence interval [CI] 2.60-5.44; I2 = 85%; 15 studies; 330 participants). Similarly, the ARAT and MAL-AOU scores improved significantly. CONCLUSIONS CIMT combined with several adjunctive therapies effectively improved upper limb function.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Chemotherapy in combination with anti-epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) antibody is considered a first-line treatment regimen for RAS wild-type and left-sided metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC), whereas second-line treatment regimens have not yet been established. Few studies have prospectively evaluated second-line treatment with anti-vascular endothelial growth factor antibody after first-line anti-EGFR antibody therapy for RAS wild-type mCRC. PATIENTS AND METHODS This non-randomized phase II trial investigated the clinical outcomes of second-line ramucirumab (RAM) plus fluorouracil, levofolinate, and irinotecan (FOLFIRI) after first-line anti-EGFR antibody in combination with doublet or triplet regimen in patients with RAS wild-type mCRC. The primary endpoint was the 6-month progression-free survival (PFS) rate. The secondary endpoints were PFS, overall survival (OS), objective response rate (ORR), rate of early tumor shrinkage (ETS), and safety. We hypothesized a threshold 6-month PFS rate of 30% and an expected 6-month PFS rate of 45%. Treatment was considered effective if the lower limit of the 90% confidence interval (CI) of the 6-month PFS rate was >0.30. RESULTS Ninety-two patients were enrolled in the study. The primary tumor was located on the left side in 86 (95.6%) patients. Twenty (22.0%) patients had received triplet plus cetuximab as previous therapy. Six-month PFS rate was 58.2% (90% CI 49.3% to 66.2%) with a median PFS of 7.0 months (95% CI 5.7-7.6 months). Median OS was 23.6 months (95% CI 16.5-26.3 months). The ORR and ETS rate were 10.7% and 16.9%, respectively, in 83 patients with measurable lesions. The 6-month PFS rate was comparable between patients previously treated with doublet and triplet regimens; however, median PFS was longer for the doublet regimen (7.4 versus 6.4 months, P = 0.036). CONCLUSIONS Our study demonstrated prospectively that RAM plus FOLFIRI is an effective second-line treatment after anti-EGFR antibody-containing first-line therapy in RAS wild-type and left-sided mCRC. Furthermore, the results were similar for patients who were previously treated with triplet regimen.

Abstract
Robot-assisted therapy can effectively treat upper extremity (UE) paralysis in patients who experience a stroke. Presently, UE, as a training item, is selected according to the severity of the paralysis based on a clinician's experience. The possibility of objectively selecting robot-assisted training items based on the severity of paralysis was simulated using the two-parameter logistic model item response theory (2PLM-IRT). Sample data were generated using the Monte Carlo method with 300 random cases. This simulation analyzed sample data (categorical data with three difficulty values of 0, 1, and 2 [0: too easy, 1: adequate, and 2: too difficult]) with 71 items per case. First, the most appropriate method was selected to ensure the local independence of the sample data necessary to use 2PLM-IRT. The method was to exclude items with low response probability (maximum response probability) within a pair in the Quality of Compensatory Movement Score (QCM) 1-point item difficulty curve, items with low item information content within a pair in the QCM 1-point item difficulty curve, and items with low item discrimination. Second, 300 cases were analyzed to determine the most appropriate model (one-parameter or two-parameter item response therapy) to be used and the most favored method to establish local independence. We also examined whether robotic training items could be selected according to the severity of paralysis based on the ability of a person (θ) in the sample data as calculated by 2PLM-IRT. Excluding items with low response probability (maximum response probability) in a pair in the categorical data 1-point item difficulty curve was effective in ensuring local independence. Additionally, to ensure local independence, the number of items should be reduced to 61 from 71, indicating that the 2PLM-IRT was an appropriate model. The ability of a person (θ) calculated by 2PLM-IRT suggested that seven training items could be estimated from 300 cases according to severity. This simulation made it possible to objectively estimate the training items according to the severity of paralysis in a sample of approximately 300 cases using this model.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Collaboration is an important concept in goal-setting in occupational therapy. However, this concept is not stable due to various definitions. The purpose of this study was to clarify the concept of collaboration in occupational therapy. METHOD A scoping review was used to search for all articles related to occupational therapy and collaboration. PubMed, Web of Science, CINAHL, and OT Seeker searches were conducted using predetermined keywords. Three examiners independently reviewed and assessed the quality of each study using Walker and Avant's concept analysis method. RESULTS Results of the database searches yielded 1873 studies, 585 of which were deemed eligible to include in this review. Results showed five attributes ("active participation for the common objective", "existence of something to share", "matured communication and interaction", "relationship founded on the respect and trust" and "complementing each other") and two antecedents and several consequences. CONCLUSIONS Our findings may contribute to collaborative goal-setting and occupational therapy.

Abstract
The Fugl-Meyer Assessment (FMA) has been used as a functional assessment of upper-limb function in stroke patients. This study aimed to create a more objective and standardized evaluation based on an FMA of the upper-limb items. A total of 30 first-ever stroke patients (65.3 ± 10.3 years old) and 15 healthy participants (35.4 ± 13.4 years old) admitted to Itami Kousei Neurosurgical Hospital were included. A nine-axis motion sensor was attached to the participants, and the joint angles of 17 upper-limb items (excluding fingers) and 23 FMA upper-limb items (excluding reflexes and fingers) were measured. From the measurement results, we analyzed the time-series data of each movement and obtained the correlation between the joint angles of each part. Discriminant analysis showed that 17 and 6 items had a concordance rate of ≥80% (80.0~95.6%) and <80% (64.4~75.6%), respectively. In the multiple regression analysis of continuous variables of FMA, a good regression model was obtained to predict the FMA with three to five joint angles. The discriminant analysis for 17 evaluation items suggests the possibility of roughly calculating FMA scores from joint angles.

Abstract
Introduction: Robotic assisted therapy and modified constraint-induced movement therapy are used evidence-based approach in stroke rehabilitation. However, there is no study showing a combination of robotic assisted therapy and modified constraint-induced movement therapy (combined therapy) in the subacute phase. This study investigated the effectiveness of combined therapy in stroke patients with moderate to severe upper limb paresis compared with conventional occupational therapy at subacute setting. Methods: This research used a case–control study. The intervention group ( n = 15) consisting of patients with moderate to severe upper limb paresis (Brunnstrom recovery stage upper extremity III or IV and above hand III) 4–8 weeks since stroke onset received a combined therapy for 3 weeks (total intervention time: 1440 minutes). The control group ( n = 15) extracted by propensity score matching received a conventional occupational therapy for 4 weeks (total intervention time: 1680–2240 minutes). The primary outcome was the Fugl-Meyer assessment upper limb score change before and after the intervention. Results: The intervention group exhibited significantly greater improvement on Fugl-Meyer assessment upper lim change ( p = 0.005). Conclusion: In the subacute phase, the combined therapy of robotic assisted therapy and modified constraint-induced movement therapy helped improve upper limb motor function more effectively and efficiently than conventional occupational therapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Many studies have confirmed the psychometric properties of Fugl-Meyer Assessment of the upper extremity (FMA-UE). Although several modified versions of the FMA-UE form exist, their structural validity has not been fully established. OBJECTIVES To assess the structural validity and internal consistency of the original, short, and hypothesized FMA-UE forms. METHODS In this cross-sectional, multicenter, observational study, the factor structure was assessed using confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) to evaluate the adequate model of each hypothetical FMA-UE form (original, 30-item, 27-item, and 6-item forms). The internal consistency of each FMA-UE form and subscale was assessed using Cronbach's alpha after factor structure evaluation. RESULTS We recruited 363 patients with first-episode stroke (median age = 70.0, median days = 75.0). The results of the original form models were not estimated by CFA. Of all FMA-UE forms, the 30-item form lacked three reflex items (4-factor, 30-item model) and the 27-item form lacked three reflex and three coordination items (3-factor, 27-item, second-order model); these forms demonstrated an adequate model fitness (root mean square error of approximation = 0.056/0.059, comparative fit index = 0.995/0.996, Tucker-Lewis index = 0.995/0.995). The 6-item form demonstrated a poor model fit. All FMA-UE forms and subscales showed a high internal consistency (Cronbach's alpha>0.91). CONCLUSIONS Both 30- and 27-item FMA-UE forms showed a good factor structure; therefore, these forms are eligible for use in clinical practice. However, future studies should define the factor structure of the 6-item form.

Abstract
Background Robotic therapy has been demonstrated to be effective in treating upper extremity (UE) paresis in stroke survivors. However, it remains unclear whether the level of assistance provided by robotics in UE training could affect the improvement in UE function in stroke survivors. We aimed to exploratorily investigate the impact of robotic assistance level and modes of adjustment on functional improvement in a stroke-affected UE. Methods We analyzed the data of 30 subacute stroke survivors with mild-to-severe UE hemiplegia who were randomly assigned to the robotic therapy (using ReoGo System) group in our previous randomized clinical trial. A cluster analysis based on the training results (the percentage of each stroke patient’s five assistance modes of robotics used during the training) was performed. The patients were divided into two groups: high and low robotic assistance groups. Additionally, the two groups were sub-categorized into the following classes based on the severity of UE functional impairment: moderate-to-mild [Fugl-Meyer Assessment (FMA) score ≥ 30] and severe-to-moderate class (FMA < 30). The outcomes were assessed using FMA, FMA-proximal, performance-time in the Wolf motor function test (WMFT), and functional assessment scale (FAS) in WMFT. The outcomes of each class in the two groups were analyzed. A two-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) was conducted with robot assistance level and severity of UE function as explanatory factors and the change in each outcome pre- and post-intervention as the objective factor. Results Overall, significant differences of the group × severity interaction were found in most of the outcomes, including FMA-proximal (p = 0.038, η2 = 0.13), WMFT-PT (p = 0.021, η2 = 0.17), and WMFT-FAS (p = 0.045, η2 = 0.14). However, only the FMA score appeared not to be significantly different in each group (p = 0.103, η2 = 0.09). Conclusion An optimal amount of robotic assistance is a key to maximize improvement in post-stroke UE paralysis. Furthermore, severity of UE paralysis is an important consideration when deciding the amount of assistance in robotic therapy. Trial registration Trial enrollment was done at UMIN (UMIN 000001619, registration date was January 1, 2009)

Abstract
This study investigates whether reflection on occupational experience during assessment and intervention would help clients express their occupational needs in goal setting. Sixty-two participants who were not able to express their occupational needs in the initial assessment process were either allocated to the occupational experience group who undertook occupation-based assessment and intervention, or the physical training group who engaged in physical training only. The ratio of participants who expressed their occupational needs in each group was 67% (30/45) and 12% (2/17) respectively. Reflection on occupational experience during assessment and intervention to help clients express their occupational needs would have significant implications for practice, as it may encourage clients to reflect on their performance more easily.

Abstract
Background: The Fugl-Meyer Assessment of the Upper Extremity (FMA-UE) has been used in many clinical studies and in stroke rehabilitation. In studies evaluating psychometric properties, confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) indicated that the FMA-UE is a multidimensional tool. Item Response Theory One-Parameter Logistic (IRT1PL) supports that item-difficulty hierarchy can be used as a treatment index of upper extremity function for stroke recovery. However, studies on the psychometric properties of the FMA-UE in Asian populations are lacking.Objectives: To investigate the dimensionality and item-difficulty hierarchy of the FMA-UE for stroke rehabilitation in Japanese patients. Methods: This was a cross-sectional study. The participants comprised 268 individuals admitted for de novo stroke (median age, 70.0 years; median days since stroke onset, 78.5) in 22 hospitals in Japan. The dimensionality of the FMA-UE was evaluated using CFA of selected items. The item-difficulty hierarchy of the FMA-UE using the appropriately selected model was demonstrated using IRT1PL analysis after confirming dimensionality.Results:Two reflex items were removed by utilizing the floor and ceiling effects. The 31- and 30-item FMA-UE exhibited a good model fit of the unidimensionality in the CFA. The 30-item FMA-UE was found to be a good model by model comparison (the 31-item vs. the 30-item). The item-difficulty hierarchy of the 30-item FMA-UE was found not to be consistent with the expected item order.Conclusions:This study provides evidence that the FMA-UE has multidimensionality and the 30-item FMA-UE is a valid instrument for measuring upper-extremity impairment after stroke.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Mechanical Thrombectomy (MT) is a recommended approach for post-cerebral ischemia in acute settings. Although a large amount of evidence suggests the use of MT, existing evidence has primarily focused on assessing lower limb performance or gait performance as an outcome measure. METHODS This study was to investigate whether MT would be an effective approach for improving upper limb performance in post-stroke patients.This case control was divided into two groups: 154 patients as a control group only given conventional rehabilitation; and 25 patients as an intervention group given MT and conventional rehabilitation. Outcome variables were measured by calculating the change of Fugl-Meyer Assessment score at the last intervention compared with the beginning of the intervention. RESULT By comparing the FMA scores after, the propensity matching compared between before receiving therapy intervention and after, the intervention group showed as follows: 30.4 ± 26.4-44.3 ± 25.4, p = 0.0019, r = 0.59. The control group showed as follows: 39.9 ± 24.1-49.1 ± 21.3, p = 0.002, r = 0.69. Lastly, a comparison of the intervention group with the control group about their FMA score change indicates as follows: intervention group: 13.9 ± 19.4, control group 9.2 ± 10.0, p = 0.2967, r = 0.15. CONCLUSION This study indicated that there was no significant difference between MT and a conventional approach for improving UE function. However, this is the first study to investigate the course of recovery of UE function in the acute phase after MT, and this finding supports the need for further research.

Abstract
AIM Precise biomarkers for predicting prognosis could help to identify high-risk Crohn's disease (CD) patients to facilitate better follow-up during the postoperative course. In this study, the primary aim is the identification of the most reliable nutrition marker that predicts surgical relapse in CD patients. METHOD We first evaluated the predictive value of various nutrition markers for postoperative surgical relapse in CD patients and identified the advanced lung cancer inflammation index (ALI) as a promising biomarker. Then, we assessed the clinical significance of preoperative ALI in CD patients using two cohorts. RESULTS Preoperative ALI showed the highest correlation with reoperation rate compared with other nutritional parameters in CD patients receiving surgical resection (sensitivity 53%, specificity 86%, area under the curve 0.71). Lower levels of preoperative ALI were significantly correlated with the presence of perianal disease. A lower level of preoperative ALI was an independent prognostic factor for reoperation rate after an intestinal resection (hazard ratio 3.37, 95% CI 1.38-10.12, P = 0.006), and the prognostic impact of preoperative ALI was successfully validated in an independent cohort using the same cut-off value. CONCLUSION Preoperative ALI might be useful for postoperative management of CD patients.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION This pilot study examined the effect of collaborative consultation with teachers in school-based occupational therapy (SBOT) using iPad application for goal-setting-Aid for Decision-Making in Occupation Choice for School (ADOC-S). METHOD A single arm pre-post intervention design was conducted at four preschools in Japan. The participants were 10 preschool teachers (10.5 ± 0.4 years of teaching), and 10 children (3.8 ± 0.4 years old; five boys). The teachers received three collaborative consultations (1 hr for each) from one occupational therapist. Firstly, the occupational therapist conducted an observational assessment of the child's school life, then the teacher and occupational therapist identified occupation-based goals for each child using the ADOC-S. Secondly, the teacher and the occupational therapist developed the graded goals using the Goal Attainment Scale (GAS) and discussed the daily intervention plan for the teachers to conduct. Thirdly, the occupational therapist followed up on the intervention process using GAS. The subjective outcome was measured at 10 point-satisfaction and performance score in each goal using Canadian Occupational Performance Measure (COPM). The observed outcome was measured using GAS and Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ). RESULTS All the participants including teachers and children successfully underwent the intervention process. Significant improvement was found pre-post and effect size (ES) was large on the COPM (ES; r = .85-.94), GAS (ES; r = .98-.99) and SDQ (ES; r = .64). All goals (30/30) exceeded expectations of GAS from zero to +2. CONCLUSION Although there are some limitations and considerations which need to be resolved for future studies, our results suggest that ADOC-S would help build a rapport with a teacher in SBOT settings, and this collaborative consultation would facilitate a positive outcome.

AIM To evaluate the association between 11C-methionine positron-emission tomography (11C-methionine PET) findings, isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) gene mutation, and O6-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase (MGMT) promoter methylation in patients with grade II and III gliomas. MATERIALS AND METHODS Data were collected from 40 patients with grade II and III gliomas who underwent both magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and 11C-methionine PET as part of their pre-surgical examination. IDH mutation was examined via DNA sequencing, and MGMT promoter methylation via quantitative methylation-specific polymerase chain reaction (PCR). RESULTS A threshold of MGMT promoter methylation of 1% was significantly associated with tumour/normal tissue (T/N) ratio. The T/N ratio in samples with MGMT promoter methylation ≥1% was higher than that in samples with MGMT promoter methylation <1%, and the difference was statistically significant (p=0.011). Reliable prediction of MGMT promoter methylation (<1% versus ≥1%) was possible using the T/N ratio under the receiver operator characteristic (ROC) curve with a sensitivity and specificity of 75% each (cut-off value=1.6: p=0.0226, area under the ROC curve [AUC]=0.76172). Conversely, the T/N ratio had no association with IDH mutation (p=0.6). The ROC curve revealed no reliable prediction of IDH mutation using the T/N ratio (p=0.606, AUC=0.60577). CONCLUSION 11C-methionine PET parameters can predict MGMT promoter methylation but not IDH mutation status. 11C-methionine uptake may have limited potential to reflect DNA methylation processes in grade II and III gliomas.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Mechanical properties of chordae tendineae of mitral valve (MV) are still not fully investigated. Synchrotron-based X-ray phase tomography (XPCT) is a powerful tool to measure biological soft tissues. Recently, we have developed dynamic X-ray phase tomography (4D-XPCT) to discuss the dynamic phenomena of biological samples quantitatively and applied to chordae tendineae of MV (MVCT).
Purpose
This study evaluated 4-dimensional changes of MVCT and clarified structural changes of MVCT during cardiac cycles.
Methods
The X-ray energy for 4D XPCT was set to 20keV. The effective pixel size was 7.8μm. Fresh MVCT extracted from a pig heart were measured in the specially designed container filled with normal cold saline. MVCT installed on the sample stage was stretched and released with a continuous oscillation of 0.5Hz during a phase tomographic measurement. The amount of stretch was 400μm where a mechanical load caused by stretching was approximately 1N. In this measurement, projection images were acquired with a frame rate of 20Hz during a single sawtooth wave. Therefore, apparent frame rate of 20Hz is expected in 4D phase tomography. Cross section was determined by simple thresholding based on the density. In this case, the threshold was set to 1.018g/cm3.
Results
X-ray phase tomographic images of MVCT at the released (A) and stretched (B) conditions are shown in Fig. 1a. The load applied to the sample and change of the cross section obtained from tomography during stretching and releasing are shown in Fig. 1b and 1c, respectively. The diameter of chordae tendinea were changed approximately 2.5% during stretching and returned to initial diameter during releasing.
Figure 1
Conclusions
This result demonstrated that the 4D-XPCT had a capability to trace the detail of deformation process in the biological soft tissues during continuous oscillation. Even chordae tendinea are mainly consisted of collagen fibers, diameter of the chordae was changed according to stretching and releasing.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Despite recent advances in diagnosis and management, the mortality of acute aortic dissection (AAD) remains high.
Purpose
This study aims to develop quality indicators (QIs) for the management of AAD, and to evaluate the associations between QIs and outcomes of AAD in a Japanese nationwide administrative database.
Methods
A total of 18,348 patients suffered from AAD (Type A: 10,131, Type B: 8,217) in the Japanese Registry of All Cardiac and Vascular Diseases database between 2012 and 2015 were studied. A systematic review was performed to establish initial index items for QIs. Evaluation was performed through the expert consensus meeting using a Delphi method. Associations between developed QIs and the mortality were determined by multivariate mixed logistic regression analyses.
Results
A total of nine QIs (five structural and four processatic) were developed. Achievements of developed QIs (High: 7–9, Middle: 4–6, Low: 0–3) were significantly associated with lower in-hospital mortality even after adjustment for covariates in both type A (Middle: odds ratio [OR], 0.257; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.211–0.312; P<0.001; High: OR, 0.064; 95% CI, 0.047–0.086; P<0.001 vs. Low) and type B (Middle: OR, 0.447; 95% CI, 0.338–0.590; P<0.001; High: OR, 0.128; 95% CI, 0.077–0.215; P<0.001 vs. Low). Additionally, achievements of structural and processatic QIs were consistently associated with reduced in-hospital mortality.
QIs and in-hospital mortality
Conclusions
Developed QIs for AAD management were significantly associated with lower in-hospital mortality. Evaluation of each hospital's management with QIs could be helpful to equalize quality of treatment and to fill the evidence-to-practice gaps in the real-world treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM Among elderly patients undergoing cardiac surgery, malnutrition is very common and related to muscle wasting known as sarcopenia. Cardiac surgery causes a further decline of nutritional status due to reduced dietary intake (DI); however, the impact of postoperative DI on functional recovery is unclear. METHODS AND RESULTS We enrolled 250 consecutive patients undergoing cardiac surgery. Daily DI was measured between postoperative days 3 and 7. Patients were categorized as having sufficient or insufficient DI based on whether their DI met or was less than estimated total energy requirements. Functional capacity was measured using the 6-minute walking distance (6MWD) preoperatively and at discharge. Mean postoperative DI was 22.4 ± 3.0 kcal/kg/day, and postoperative DI was insufficient in 92 patients (36.8%). The prevalence of sarcopenia was not different by postoperative DI. Although there was no significant difference in preoperative 6MWD results (P = 0.65), the sufficient DI group had longer 6MWD at discharge than the insufficient DI group (P = 0.04). In multivariate regression analysis, preoperative poor nutritional status (β = -0.29), duration of surgery (β = -0.18), and postoperative DI (β = 0.40) remained statistically significant predictors for improvement of 6MWD (P < 0.0001, adjusted R2 = 0.41). CONCLUSIONS Postoperative DI was independently associated with functional recovery, but preoperative sarcopenia was not. Regardless of preoperative nutritional status or the presence of sarcopenia, aggressive nutritional intervention in the early stage after surgery helps support functional recovery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Single-dose human fibrinogen concentrate (FCH) might have haemostatic benefits in complex cardiovascular surgery. METHODS Patients undergoing elective aortic surgery requiring cardiopulmonary bypass were randomly assigned to receive FCH or placebo. Study medication was administered to patients with a 5 min bleeding mass of 60-250 g after separation from bypass and surgical haemostasis. A standardized algorithm for allogeneic blood product transfusion was followed if bleeding continued after study medication. RESULTS 519 patients from 34 centres were randomized, of whom 152 (29%) met inclusion criteria for study medication. Median (IQR) pretreatment 5 min bleeding mass was 107 (76-138) and 91 (71-112) g in the FCH and placebo groups, respectively (P=0.13). More allogeneic blood product units were administered during the first 24 h after FCH, 5.0 (2.0-11.0), when compared with placebo, 3.0 (0.0-7.0), P=0.026. Fewer patients avoided transfusion in the FCH group (15.4%) compared with placebo (28.4%), P=0.047. The FCH immediately increased plasma fibrinogen concentration and fibrin-based clot strength. Adverse event rates were comparable in each group. CONCLUSIONS Human fibrinogen concentrate was associated with increased allogeneic blood product transfusion, an unexpected finding contrary to previous studies. Human fibrinogen concentrate may not be effective in this setting when administered according to 5-minute bleeding mass. Low bleeding rates and normal-range plasma fibrinogen concentrations before study medication, and variability in adherence to the complex transfusion algorithm, may have contributed to these results.

Abstract
Aortoesophageal fistula is a critical and life-threatening disease. The cardiovascular strategy for graft replacement has been widely discussed. However, the surgical strategy of esophageal resection and reconstruction for aortoesophageal fistula has rarely been discussed. The objective of this study is to establish a surgical strategy and procedure of esophageal resection and reconstruction for aortoesophageal fistula. Eleven patients with aortoesophageal fistula who underwent aortic graft replacement and esophagectomy between 2008 and 2015 at Kobe University Hospital were enrolled in this study. Patient characteristics, operative methods, and clinical outcomes were obtained by retrospective chart review. All 11 patients underwent graft replacement, esophagectomy, and omental wrapping. Ten esophagectomies were simultaneously accomplished in the same operative field as aortic graft replacement. Seven patients underwent subtotal esophagectomy from a left thoracotomy, and three patients underwent upper hemiesophagectomy from a median sternotomy. The other patient underwent staged esophagectomy from a right thoracotomy. Seven of 11 patients (63.6%) successfully underwent staged esophageal reconstruction. Pedicled jejunal transfer with supercharge and superdrainage were performed in six patients, and ileocecal reconstruction was performed in one patient. Median survival time in the patients with esophageal reconstruction was 21 months while that in the patients without esophageal reconstruction was 10 months. Six of 7 patients (85.7%) who underwent esophageal reconstructions were alive. Our surgical strategy for aortoesophageal fistula, which includes simultaneous graft replacement and esophagectomy in the same operative field and staged reconstruction by pedicled jejunal transfer to ensure omental wrapping, is feasible and promising.

Abstract
Metallothioneins (MTs) are proteins that function by metal exchange to regulate the bioavailability of metals, such as zinc and copper. Copper functions in the brain to regulate mitochondria, neurotransmitter production, and cell signaling. Inappropriate copper binding can result in loss of protein function and Cu(I)/(II) redox cycling can generate reactive oxygen species. Copper accumulates in the brain with aging and has been shown to bind alpha-synuclein and initiate its aggregation, the primary aetiological factor in Parkinson's disease (PD), and other alpha-synucleinopathies. In PD, total tissue copper is decreased, including neuromelanin-bound copper and there is a reduction in copper transporter CTR-1. Conversely cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) copper is increased. MT-1/2 expression is increased in activated astrocytes in alpha-synucleinopathies, yet expression of the neuronal MT-3 isoform may be reduced. MTs have been implicated in inflammatory states to perform one-way exchange of copper, releasing free zinc and recent studies have found copper bound to alpha-synuclein is transferred to the MT-3 isoform in vitro and MT-3 is found bound to pathological alpha-synuclein aggregates in the alpha-synucleinopathy, multiple systems atrophy. Moreover, both MT and alpha-synuclein can be released and taken up by neural cells via specific receptors and so may interact both intra- and extra-cellularly. Here, we critically review the role of MTs in copper dyshomeostasis and alpha-synuclein aggregation, and their potential as biomarkers and therapeutic targets.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Noninvasive radiologic evaluation of glioma can facilitate correct diagnosis and detection of malignant transformation. Although positron-emission tomography is considered valuable in the care of patients with gliomas, (18)F-fluorodeoxyglucose and (11)C-methionine have reportedly shown ambiguous results in terms of grading and prognostication. The present study compared the diagnostic and prognostic capabilities of diffusion tensor imaging, FDG, and (11)C-methionine PET in nonenhancing gliomas. MATERIALS AND METHODS Thirty-five consecutive newly diagnosed, histologically confirmed nonenhancing gliomas that underwent both FDG and (11)C-methionine PET were retrospectively investigated (23 grade II and 12 grade III gliomas). Apparent diffusion coefficient, fractional anisotropy, and tumor-to-normal tissue ratios of both FDG and (11)C-methionine PET were compared between grade II and III gliomas. Prognostic values of these parameters were also tested by using progression-free survival. RESULTS Grade III gliomas showed significantly higher average tumor-to-normal tissue and maximum tumor2-to-normal tissue than grade II gliomas in (11)C-methionine (P = .013, P = .0017, respectively), but not in FDG-PET imaging. There was no significant difference in average ADC, minimum ADC, average fractional anisotropy, and maximum fractional anisotropy. (11)C-methionine PET maximum tumor-to-normal tissue ratio of 2.0 was most suitable for detecting grade III gliomas among nonenhancing gliomas (sensitivity, 83.3%; specificity, 73.9%). Among patients not receiving any adjuvant therapy, median progression-free survival was 64.2 ± 7.2 months in patients with maximum tumor-to-normal tissue ratio of <2.0 for (11)C-methionine PET and 18.6 ± 6.9 months in patients with maximum tumor-to-normal tissue ratio of >2.0 (P = .0044). CONCLUSIONS (11)C-methionine PET holds promise for World Health Organization grading and could offer a prognostic imaging biomarker for nonenhancing gliomas.

Abstract
Objective: The aims of this study were to elucidate the association between plasma intestinal fatty acid-binding protein (I-FABP) level and actual pathological damage of intestinal mucosa and its reversibility. Methods: An intestinal ischemia-reperfusion model was created by temporary occlusion of the descending aorta in 9 pigs which were divided into 3 groups according to the duration of visceral ischemic insult: 15-minute ischemia (n=3), 30-minute ischemia (n=3) and 60-minute ischemia (n=3). Blood samples and short segments of the jejunum for pathological examinations, including immunohistochemical staining of I-FABP, Ki-67 and E-cadherin, were taken at the beginning of the operation (T1) and 15 minutes (T2), 30 minutes (T3), 45 minutes (T4) and 60 minutes (T5) after reperfusion. Results: Plasma I-FABP after 15 minutes of ischemia reached a peak of 1859±1089 pg/ml at T3, while the level after 30 minutes of ischemia achieved a peak level of 5053±1717 pg/ml at T5. The level after 60 minutes of ischemia demonstrated a rapid increment up to 10734±93 pg/ml at T3. There was a significant difference in the trend of plasma I-FABP levels between 30 minutes and 60 minutes of ischemia (p=0.01). The strongest immunohistochemical staining of the intestinal epithelium for I-FABP was observed at T4 after 30 minutes of ischemia, with the shedding of injured epithelium followed by re-epithelialisation, with sequential up-regulation of Ki67 and E-cadherin. However, the intestinal epithelium after 60 minutes of ischemia demonstrated the lack of I-FABP expression with irreversible damage. Conclusion: Plasma I-FABP levels may be a crucial marker to recognize the reversibility of damage of the intestinal epithelium after an ischemic insult and the level of 5000 pg/ml is considered to be the critical borderline for irreversibility, which might prevent diagnostic delay in the clinical setting.

Abstract
We report on a patient after knee reconstruction for osteosarcoma in the distal femur using a hingeless prosthesis K-MAX KNEE system K-5 who walked without ipsilateral knee extension in the latter half of the stance phase (flexed knee gait). We evaluated the patient using three-dimensional gait analysis and isokinetic knee strength measurement, and compared the patient with five healthy subjects. The Musculoskeletal Tumor Society (MSTS) score was also used for evaluation. The patient kept his operated knee flexed during mid stance. The maximal ankle plantarflexion internal moment was lower on the ipsilateral side than on the contralateral side, and lower than in the healthy subjects. The negative ankle power during the stance phase was generally stronger on the ipsilateral side than on the contralateral side, and also in the healthy subjects. Unusual contralateral hip flexion occurred after the initial contact, indicating increased joint load on the ipsilateral ankle and the contralateral hip. The ratios of the peak knee extension/flexion torque were 0.7 on the ipsilateral side, 1.9 on the contralateral side, and 1.7 in the healthy subjects. The MSTS score of the patient was 23/30 (76.6%). Flexed knee gait might account for the reduction of ipsilateral hip flexion and ankle plantarflexion moment during the late stance phase. These results suggest the importance of focusing more on the ipsilateral ankle joint and the contralateral hip joint to maintain the function of the entire limb joints of the patients with flexed knee gait.
