Abstract
PURPOSE Occupational therapists are crucial in providing assistive technology (AT) services for older adults. However, evidence has shown limited provision of such services in Thailand. This study aimed to investigate the factors that influence the implementation of AT services for older adults from the perspectives of Thai occupational therapists. METHODS An explanatory sequential mixed-methods design was guided by the measurement instrument for determinants of innovations and literature review. This study was conducted in two phases: quantitative and qualitative. During the quantitative phase, an adapted version of the Measurement Instrument for Determinants of Innovations was administered to 96 occupational therapists (OTs). A subsample of 5 OTs completed a semi-structured interview during the qualitative phase to explain the findings in the quantitative one. RESULTS Factors were categorized into three sections: personal, organizational and socio-political context levels. At the personal level, integrating knowledge and experience could contribute to awareness and professional competency. Client satisfaction influenced OTs to utilize AT, based on a client centred manner. With coordinator and performance feedback within the organization, OTs indicated that consultants supported them in their decision-making. In contrast, availability of AT for older adults is determined by time and resources. Moreover, at the socio-political context level, legislation and regulations may permit or prohibit accessibility of assistive devices. CONCLUSION In order to address current challenges, education or training programmes are needed to increase the awareness and competence of OTs. In addition, collaboration with other professionals in community settings is necessary to improve access to AT services.IMPLICATIONS FOR REHABILITATIONAT service for older adults is limited by the availability of time and resources. To handle with these challenges, occupational therapists could advocate for village health volunteers to be a part of the AT services for older adults in the community to increase AT accessibility for older adults.Additional education or training programs should be developed to build competencies and increase occupational therapists' awareness of providing AT services to older adults, as well as to strengthen their roles in AT services.Future research and health policies should focus on access to sufficient funding, and resources for occupational therapists relative to their role in implementing AT services.

Abstract
Autophagy is a prosurvival mechanism for the clearance of damaged cellular components, specifically upon exposure to various stressors. In lymphoid organs, excessive ethanol consumption increases lymphocyte apoptosis, resulting in immunosuppression. However, ethanol-induced autophagy and related phagocytosis of apoptotic lymphocytes in the spleen have not been studied yet. Adult male Wistar rats were injected intraperitoneally either with 5 g/kg ethanol or phosphate-buffered saline (as a control group) and then sacrificed 0, 3, 6, and 24 hours after injection. Light and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) findings indicated enhanced T cell apoptosis in the white pulps of ethanol-treated rats (ETRs) compared with the control group, which peaked at 6 h and was associated with the accumulation of tingible body macrophages (TBMs). These macrophages exhibited an upregulated autophagic response, as evidenced by enhanced LC3-II (a specific marker of autophagosomes) expression, which peaked at 24h. In addition, double labeling immunofluorescence of LC3-II with lysosomal markers revealed the enhanced formation of autolysosomes in TBMs of ETRs, which was associated with suppression of p62 immunostaining, indicating the enhanced autophagic flux. Interestingly, this elevated autophagic response in ETR TBMs was accompanied by evidence of LC3-associated phagocytosis (LAP) of apoptotic splenocytes. This is based on TUNEL/LC3-II double labeling and TEM observations of phagosomes containing apoptotic bodies, enclosed within phagosomal membranes adjacent to the autophagic vacuoles. It can be concluded that enhanced prosurvival autophagy in splenic TBMs of ETRs and clearing of apoptotic lymphocytes via LAP may contribute to preventing secondary necrosis and autoimmune diseases.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Levodopa-carbidopa intestinal gel (LCIG) treatment markedly reduces motor fluctuations in patients with Parkinson's disease; however, some patients undergoing LCIG treatment may demonstrate clinical deterioration in the afternoon. Entacapone, a catechol-O-methyltransferase inhibitor, may be a promising adjunctive option for LCIG-treated patients; however, the optimal timing of oral entacapone administration to ameliorate clinical symptoms in the afternoon remains unexplored. This study aimed to investigate the optimal timing of oral entacapone administration in patients with Parkinson's disease undergoing LCIG treatment. METHODS Pharmacokinetic analysis and symptom assessment were performed on three days: a day without entacapone administration, day with oral entacapone administration at 13:00, and day with oral entacapone administration at 15:00. RESULTS Eight LCIG-treated patients were enrolled, of whom seven completed this study. The relative plasma concentrations of levodopa with entacapone administration at 13:00 were gradually increased, especially at 18:00 and were significantly higher than those without entacapone administration (127.10 ± 25.06% vs. 97.51 ± 22.20%). The relative plasma concentrations of 3-O-methyldopa were gradually increased without entacapone administration, whereas those with entacapone administration at 13:00 were lower than those without entacapone administration, especially at 17:00 (97.47 ± 3.70% vs. 110.71 ± 9.84%). Administering oral entacapone at 15:00 increased and decreased the relative plasma concentrations of levodopa and 3-O-methyldopa, respectively, but without significant difference. The "Off" time was shorter with entacapone administration at 13:00 (0.43 ± 0.79 h) and at 15:00 (0.57 ± 0.79 h) than that without entacapone administration (1.14 ± 1.46 h). CONCLUSIONS The concomitant use of oral entacapone in the early afternoon may be effective in improving afternoon symptoms in patients undergoing LCIG treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitors reduce progression of chronic kidney disease and the risk of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in a wide range of patients. However, their effects on kidney disease progression in some patients with chronic kidney disease are unclear because few clinical kidney outcomes occurred among such patients in the completed trials. In particular, some guidelines stratify their level of recommendation about who should be treated with SGLT2 inhibitors based on diabetes status and albuminuria. We aimed to assess the effects of empagliflozin on progression of chronic kidney disease both overall and among specific types of participants in the EMPA-KIDNEY trial. METHODS EMPA-KIDNEY, a randomised, controlled, phase 3 trial, was conducted at 241 centres in eight countries (Canada, China, Germany, Italy, Japan, Malaysia, the UK, and the USA), and included individuals aged 18 years or older with an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) of 20 to less than 45 mL/min per 1·73 m2, or with an eGFR of 45 to less than 90 mL/min per 1·73 m2 with a urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (uACR) of 200 mg/g or higher. We explored the effects of 10 mg oral empagliflozin once daily versus placebo on the annualised rate of change in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR slope), a tertiary outcome. We studied the acute slope (from randomisation to 2 months) and chronic slope (from 2 months onwards) separately, using shared parameter models to estimate the latter. Analyses were done in all randomly assigned participants by intention to treat. EMPA-KIDNEY is registered at ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT03594110. FINDINGS Between May 15, 2019, and April 16, 2021, 6609 participants were randomly assigned and then followed up for a median of 2·0 years (IQR 1·5-2·4). Prespecified subgroups of eGFR included 2282 (34·5%) participants with an eGFR of less than 30 mL/min per 1·73 m2, 2928 (44·3%) with an eGFR of 30 to less than 45 mL/min per 1·73 m2, and 1399 (21·2%) with an eGFR 45 mL/min per 1·73 m2 or higher. Prespecified subgroups of uACR included 1328 (20·1%) with a uACR of less than 30 mg/g, 1864 (28·2%) with a uACR of 30 to 300 mg/g, and 3417 (51·7%) with a uACR of more than 300 mg/g. Overall, allocation to empagliflozin caused an acute 2·12 mL/min per 1·73 m2 (95% CI 1·83-2·41) reduction in eGFR, equivalent to a 6% (5-6) dip in the first 2 months. After this, it halved the chronic slope from -2·75 to -1·37 mL/min per 1·73 m2 per year (relative difference 50%, 95% CI 42-58). The absolute and relative benefits of empagliflozin on the magnitude of the chronic slope varied significantly depending on diabetes status and baseline levels of eGFR and uACR. In particular, the absolute difference in chronic slopes was lower in patients with lower baseline uACR, but because this group progressed more slowly than those with higher uACR, this translated to a larger relative difference in chronic slopes in this group (86% [36-136] reduction in the chronic slope among those with baseline uACR <30 mg/g compared with a 29% [19-38] reduction for those with baseline uACR ≥2000 mg/g; ptrend<0·0001). INTERPRETATION Empagliflozin slowed the rate of progression of chronic kidney disease among all types of participant in the EMPA-KIDNEY trial, including those with little albuminuria. Albuminuria alone should not be used to determine whether to treat with an SGLT2 inhibitor. FUNDING Boehringer Ingelheim and Eli Lilly.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Epidemiological evidence has demonstrated a clear association between diabetes mellitus and increased risk of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Cerebral accumulation of phosphorylated tau aggregates, a cardinal neuropathological feature of AD, is associated with neurodegeneration and cognitive decline. Clinical and experimental studies indicate that diabetes mellitus affects the development of tau pathology; however, the underlying molecular mechanisms remain unknown. OBJECTIVE In the present study, we used a unique diabetic AD mouse model to investigate the changes in tau phosphorylation patterns occurring in the diabetic brain. DESIGN Tau-transgenic mice were fed a high-fat diet (n = 24) to model diabetes mellitus. These mice developed prominent obesity, severe insulin resistance, and mild hyperglycemia, which led to early-onset neurodegeneration and behavioral impairment associated with the accumulation of hyperphosphorylated tau aggregates. RESULTS Comprehensive phosphoproteomic analysis revealed a unique tau phosphorylation signature in the brains of mice with diabetic AD. Bioinformatic analysis of the phosphoproteomics data revealed putative tau-related kinases and cell signaling pathways involved in the interaction between diabetes mellitus and AD. CONCLUSION These findings offer potential novel targets that can be used to develop tau-based therapies and biomarkers for use in AD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The EMPA-KIDNEY trial showed that empagliflozin reduced the risk of the primary composite outcome of kidney disease progression or cardiovascular death in patients with chronic kidney disease mainly through slowing progression. We aimed to assess how effects of empagliflozin might differ by primary kidney disease across its broad population. METHODS EMPA-KIDNEY, a randomised, controlled, phase 3 trial, was conducted at 241 centres in eight countries (Canada, China, Germany, Italy, Japan, Malaysia, the UK, and the USA). Patients were eligible if their estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was 20 to less than 45 mL/min per 1·73 m2, or 45 to less than 90 mL/min per 1·73 m2 with a urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (uACR) of 200 mg/g or higher at screening. They were randomly assigned (1:1) to 10 mg oral empagliflozin once daily or matching placebo. Effects on kidney disease progression (defined as a sustained ≥40% eGFR decline from randomisation, end-stage kidney disease, a sustained eGFR below 10 mL/min per 1·73 m2, or death from kidney failure) were assessed using prespecified Cox models, and eGFR slope analyses used shared parameter models. Subgroup comparisons were performed by including relevant interaction terms in models. EMPA-KIDNEY is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT03594110. FINDINGS Between May 15, 2019, and April 16, 2021, 6609 participants were randomly assigned and followed up for a median of 2·0 years (IQR 1·5-2·4). Prespecified subgroupings by primary kidney disease included 2057 (31·1%) participants with diabetic kidney disease, 1669 (25·3%) with glomerular disease, 1445 (21·9%) with hypertensive or renovascular disease, and 1438 (21·8%) with other or unknown causes. Kidney disease progression occurred in 384 (11·6%) of 3304 patients in the empagliflozin group and 504 (15·2%) of 3305 patients in the placebo group (hazard ratio 0·71 [95% CI 0·62-0·81]), with no evidence that the relative effect size varied significantly by primary kidney disease (pheterogeneity=0·62). The between-group difference in chronic eGFR slopes (ie, from 2 months to final follow-up) was 1·37 mL/min per 1·73 m2 per year (95% CI 1·16-1·59), representing a 50% (42-58) reduction in the rate of chronic eGFR decline. This relative effect of empagliflozin on chronic eGFR slope was similar in analyses by different primary kidney diseases, including in explorations by type of glomerular disease and diabetes (p values for heterogeneity all >0·1). INTERPRETATION In a broad range of patients with chronic kidney disease at risk of progression, including a wide range of non-diabetic causes of chronic kidney disease, empagliflozin reduced risk of kidney disease progression. Relative effect sizes were broadly similar irrespective of the cause of primary kidney disease, suggesting that SGLT2 inhibitors should be part of a standard of care to minimise risk of kidney failure in chronic kidney disease.

Abstract
Purpose To investigate the usability of public play spaces for children with disabilities by exploring their experiences in accessing and using these spaces and to further discuss recommendations for designing such spaces that are usable for these children. Methods A hermeneutic phenomenological approach was employed to explore the experience of children with disabilities regarding the public play spaces. Seven children and their caregivers from two inclusive elementary schools in Central Java Province, Indonesia, participated in the study. Online semistructured interviews with the children were held using Zoom, followed by telephonic interviews with their parents. In addition, video recordings of the observation of the children's participation in the play spaces were gathered. The interview and video observation data were analyzed using van Manen's hermeneutic phenomenology thematic analysis method. Results Five themes arose regarding the experiences of children with disabilities of accessing and using the public play spaces: (1) where time appeared to speed up, (2) "I like the tall one … I like extreme," (3) fostering connectedness, (4) the need for a safe space, and (5) how a play space should be. Conclusion The public play spaces have meaningful values for the children with disabilities and their family, as they offered the opportunities to play, explore, interact with friends and families, enjoy nature, interact with animals, and learn. However, it is essential to provide a safe space in which children are free from physical and emotional harm, so that they can fully participate with confidence and a sense of autonomy. Nevertheless, it was also found that children, regardless of their abilities, craved risky and challenging play opportunities. This study also highlights the necessity of awareness-raising intervention programs to foster the inclusion of children with disabilities in public play space settings.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/PURPOSE To investigate the safety of laparoscopic liver resections (LLRs) for high-risk patients (HRs) with preoperative comorbidities affecting the heart, lungs, kidneys, glucose tolerance, and central nervous system. METHODS This retrospective study included 585 patients who had undergone total hepatectomies from 2006 to 2020. Among them, 239 patients underwent LLRs, and 349 underwent open liver resections (OLRs). The safety and validity of LLRs were analyzed by comparing outcomes and preoperative records between HRs and nonhigh-risk patients (nHRs). HRs were defined as patients with any type of chronic heart disease rated New York Heart Association II or higher, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease rated stage III or higher, chronic kidney disease rated stage III or higher, insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus, or cerebrovascular disease with neurological sequelae. RESULTS A total of 117 LLRs (49.0%) were performed in HRs, and there were more patients with ASA class III or higher than nHRs. Complications of Clavien-Dindo classification grade 3b or higher were not observed in HRs and in only one nHR. Furthermore, no postoperative exacerbations of the five HRs factors were observed in either group. CONCLUSIONS Rigorous assessment of surgical indications and perioperative management can promote safe LLRs, even in HRs with comorbidities.

Abstract
The patient, a 79-year-old woman, noticed a lump in her left breast, prompting her visit to our hospital. A mass approximately 20 mm in size was palpated in the left A region. Mammography showed a spiculated mass in the left MIO region, while breast ultrasonography revealed an irregularly shaped hypoechoic mass in the left A region, as well as a hypoechoic area in the right C region. Puncture aspiration cytology of both lesions indicated malignancy. Bilateral partial mastectomy and left sentinel lymph node biopsy were performed. The pathological examination revealed apocrine carcinoma in the left and ductal carcinoma in situ with an apocrine feature in the right breast.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) The effectiveness of stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) has been shown in many studies and its therapeutic effect is similar to radiofrequency ablation (RFA). However, many of these studies were done in combination with transcatheter chemoembolization (TACE), for recurrent HCC, or on a small scale. To better understand the specific outcomes of SBRT for HCC, we conducted a multicenter retrospective analysis of SBRT for previously untreated initial HCC at Japanese Society of Clinical Oncology (JCOG) member hospitals. MATERIALS/METHODS Patientswho underwent SBRT for HCC at JCOG member hospitals between July 2013 and December 2017 and met the following eligibility criteria were included: (1) initial HCC; (2) ≤ 3 nodules, ≤ 5 cm in diameter; (3) a Child-Pugh (CP) score of A or B; and (4) unsuitability for or refusal of standard treatment, such as surgery, transplantation, RFA and TACE. We evaluated the overall survival (OS), recurrence-free survival (RFS) which was defined as the first instance of intra-hepatic recurrence after SBRT, disease-specific survival (DSS) using Kaplan-Meier analysis. Using Grey's test, patients who died of other diseases were analyzed as competing risks to estimate the cumulative incidence of local recurrence (CLR). Adverse events directly related to SBRT also analyzed using Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events version 5.0 (CTCAE v5.0). RESULTS Seventy-three patients with 79 lesions from 14 hospitals were analyzed. The median age was 77 years (range; 50-89 years), and the median tumor size was 23 mm (range; 6-50 mm). The median radiation dose was 40 Gy (range; 35-60 Gy) in five fractions (range; 4-8). The median follow-up period was 45 months (range; 0-103 months). There were three cases where follow-up was not possible due to unexpected events unrelated to SBRT, while the remaining 70 patients were successfully followed for at least six months. The 2 and 3year OS, RFS, DSS, and CLR rates were 84.3% (95% CI: 75.8-92.8%) and 69.9% (95% CI: 58.7-81%), 67.5% (95% CI: 56.0-79.0%) and 57.9% (95% CI: 45.2-70.5%), 95.1% (95% CI:89.7-100%)/87.6% (95% CI:78.8-96.3%), and 11.4% (95% CI: 5.3-20.0%) and 20.0% (95% CI: 11.2-30.5%), respectively. Four cases (5.5%) of adverse events of grade 3 or higher were reported: one case of grade 3 laboratory toxicities, one case of grade 3 liver failure, one case of grade 3 portal tumor thrombosis, and one case of grade 4 duodenal ulcer. No grade 5 toxicities were observed. CONCLUSION The results of our study demonstrate that SBRT for HCC is highly effective in achieving local control and is safe to administer. In addition, survival outcomes are favorable. SBRT is a promising treatment modality, especially for small HCCs for that is not suitable for standard treatment.

Abstract
IMPORTANCE In this scoping review, we explore the meaning of occupation for people with advanced cancer to develop and improve occupation-based services in oncology. OBJECTIVE To identify the meaning(s) of occupation for adults with advanced cancer through relevant peer-reviewed literature. DATA SOURCES Scopus, CINAHL, Medline, and PubMed were used to identify peer-reviewed articles published between 2011 and 2021. STUDY SELECTION AND DATA COLLECTION Inclusion criteria comprised research studies in English and on meaningful occupations as well as participants age 19 yr or older and diagnosed with advanced cancer. Exclusion criteria comprised non-English publications, studies with participants in an early stage of cancer, and gray literature or nonreviewed articles. FINDINGS Thirteen articles matched the inclusion criteria: 9 qualitative studies, 1 mixed-methods study, 1 case study, 1 pilot study (pretest-posttest design), and 1 retrospective study (review of clinical data). Four themes emerged from the thematic analysis: occupation benefits important relationships and connections with others, occupation as a source of physical or psychological comfort, managing one's identity through occupation, and occupation as a religious expression. CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE This scoping review highlights the value of participating in an occupation for people with advanced cancer. It also shows the importance of meaningful occupations to the quality of life and well-being of adults with advanced cancer. What This Article Adds: This scoping review identifies meanings of occupation linked to the health and well-being of adults with advanced cancer to develop and improve occupation-based services in oncology.

Abstract
We successfully performed electron scattering off unstable nuclei which were produced online from the photofission of uranium. The target ^{137}Cs ions were trapped with a new target-forming technique that makes a high-density stationary target from a small number of ions by confining them in an electron storage ring. After developments of target generation and transportation systems and the beam stacking method to increase the ion beam intensity up to approximately 2×10^{7} ions per pulse beam, an average luminosity of 0.9×10^{26} cm^{-2} s^{-1} was achieved for ^{137}Cs. The obtained angular distribution of elastically scattered electrons is consistent with a calculation. This success marks the realization of the anticipated femtoscope which clarifies the structures of exotic and short-lived unstable nuclei.

Abstract
Background A keloid is composed of several nodules, which are divided into two zones: the central zone (CZ; a hypoxic region) and the marginal zone (MZ; a normoxic region). Keloid nodules play a key role in energy metabolic activity for continuous growth by increasing in number and total area. In this study, we aimed to investigate the roles of the zones in the execution of the Warburg effect and identify which microRNAs regulate this phenomenon in keloid tissue. Methods Eleven keloids from patients were used. Using immunohistochemical analysis, 179 nodules were randomly chosen from these keloids to identify glycolytic enzymes, autophagic markers, pyruvate kinase M (PKM) 1/2, and polypyrimidine tract binding protein 1 (PTBP1). Western blot and qRT-PCR tests were also performed for PKM, PTBP1, and microRNAs (miR-133b and miR-200b, c). Results Immunohistochemical analysis showed that the expression of the autophagic (LC3, p62) and glycolytic (GLUT1, HK2) were significantly higher in the CZ than in the MZ. PKM2 expression was significantly higher than PKM1 expression in keloid nodules. Furthermore, PKM2 expression was higher in the CZ than in the MZ. However, PKM1 and PTBP1 expression levels were higher in the MZ than in the CZ. The qRT-PCR analysis showed that miR-133b-3p was moderately downregulated in the keloids compared with its expression in the normal skin tissue. Conclusions The Warburg effect occurred individually in nodules. The MZ presented PKM2-positive fibroblasts produced by activated PTBP1. In the CZ, PKM2-positive fibroblasts produced lactate. MiR-133b-3p was predicted to control the Warburg effect in keloids.

Abstract
New types of wheelchairs are being introduced in the market to maximize opportunities for children to participate in meaningful occupations. However, interventions to support the inclusion of children with mobility limitations by using mobility support are desirable as these children continue to experience barriers to community and school participation, happiness, and inclusion. Little is known about the training programs and interventions designed to effectively integrate wheelchair use into the occupations of children with mobility limitations. This rapid review identified 10 studies addressing programs and interventions to equip children with mobility limitations with wheelchair-related skills and competencies. Three overarching themes, including (1) technology-mediated simulation, (2) custom-made wheelchairs, and (3) skills training and exercises, based on the type of intervention were identified. The development, safety, and playfulness of children with mobility limitations are crucial factors when providing wheelchair-related interventions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hand-assisted laparoscopic surgery (HALS) is known as a useful option. However, the outcome and predictor of conversion to HALS in laparoscopic liver resection (LLR) are unclear. METHODS Data from consecutive patients who planned pure LLR between 2011 and 2020 were retrospectively reviewed. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed and compared pure LLR, HALS, and converted open liver resection (OLR). RESULTS Among the 169 LLRs, conversion to HALS was performed in 19 (11.2%) and conversion to OLR in 16 (9.5%). The most frequent reasons for conversion to HALS were failure to progress (11 cases). Subsequently, bleeding (3 cases), severe adhesion (2 cases), and oncological factors (2 cases) were the reasons. In the multivariable analysis, the tumor located in segments 7 or 8 (p = 0.002) was evaluated as a predictor of conversion to HALS. Pure LLR and HALS were associated with less blood loss than conversion to OLR (p = 0.005 and p = 0.014, respectively). However, there was no significant difference in operation time, hospital stay, or severe complications. CONCLUSIONS The predictor of conversion to HALS was a tumor located in segments 7 or 8. The outcome of conversion to HALS was not inferior to pure LLR in terms of bleeding, operation time, hospital stay, or severe complication.

Abstract
Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System magnetic resonance imaging (BI-RADS-MRI) classifies lesions as mass, non-mass enhancement (NME), or focus. BI-RADS ultrasound does not currently have the concept of non-mass. Additionally, knowing the concept of NME in MRI is significant. Thus, this study aimed to provide a narrative review of NME diagnosis in breast MRI. Lexicons are defined with distribution (focal, linear, segmental, regional, multiple regions, and diffuse) and internal enhancement patterns (homogenous, heterogeneous, clumped, and clustered ring) in the case of NME. Among these, linear, segmental, clumped, clustered ring, and heterogeneous are the terms that suggest malignancy. Hence, a hand search was conducted for reports of malignancy frequencies. The malignancy frequency in NME is widely distributed, ranging from 25 to 83.6%, and the frequency of each finding varies. Latest techniques, such as diffusion-weighted imaging and ultrafast dynamic MRI, are attempted to differentiate NME. Additionally, attempts are made in the preoperative setting to determine the concordance of lesion spread based on findings and the presence of invasion.

Abstract
The new isotope ^{241}U was synthesized and systematic atomic mass measurements of nineteen neutron-rich Pa-Pu isotopes were performed in the multinucleon transfer reactions of the ^{238}U+^{198}Pt system at the KISS facility. The present experimental results demonstrate the crucial role of the multinucleon transfer reactions for accessing unexplored neutron-rich actinide isotopes toward the N=152 shell gap in this region of nuclides.

Abstract
Macroautophagy (hereafter referred to as autophagy), a highly conserved metabolic process, regulates cellular homeostasis by degrading dysfunctional cytosolic constituents and invading pathogens via the lysosomal system. In addition, autophagy selectively recycles specific organelles such as damaged mitochondria (via mitophagy), and lipid droplets (LDs; via lipophagy) or eliminates specialized intracellular pathogenic microorganisms such as hepatitis B virus (HBV) and coronaviruses (via virophagy). Selective autophagy, particularly mitophagy, plays a key role in the preservation of healthy liver physiology, and its dysfunction is connected to the pathogenesis of a wide variety of liver diseases. For example, lipophagy has emerged as a defensive mechanism against chronic liver diseases. There is a prominent role for mitophagy and lipophagy in hepatic pathologies including non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), and drug-induced liver injury. Moreover, these selective autophagy pathways including virophagy are being investigated in the context of viral hepatitis and, more recently, the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19)-associated hepatic pathologies. The interplay between diverse types of selective autophagy and its impact on liver diseases is briefly addressed. Thus, modulating selective autophagy (e.g., mitophagy) would seem to be effective in improving liver diseases. Considering the prominence of selective autophagy in liver physiology, this review summarizes the current understanding of the molecular mechanisms and functions of selective autophagy (mainly mitophagy and lipophagy) in liver physiology and pathophysiology. This may help in finding therapeutic interventions targeting hepatic diseases via manipulation of selective autophagy.

Abstract
We experienced a case of resection of a metastatic umbilical tumor(Sister Mary Joseph's nodule: SMJN)derived from a pancreatic tail carcinoma. The patient was a 70-year-old woman. She visited her previous doctor with a chief complaint of lower abdominal pain and came to our hospital due to suspicion of pancreatic tail cancer. She was found to have metastases to multiple organs which was unresectable by surgery. After chemotherapy up to the second-line of treatment, she was diagnosed to have progressive disease. The decision was made to provide the best supportive care for the patient. Thereafter, the patient developed SMJN. She had hemorrhage from the tumor accompanied by body movement, and her activity of daily living became impaired. She had difficulty controlling the bleeding despite repeated hemostatic treatment at the outpatient clinic and at her home. However, she required frequent blood transfusions for her severe anemia. Therefore, we performed a resection of the SMJN to control bleeding and to relieve her symptoms. She had a good postoperative course and was discharged on the fifth postoperative day. Due to deterioration of her general condition, she expired on the 59th day after surgery. However, the patient was able to live at home without bleeding or pain by the umbilical tumor. The local resection was considered to be useful as a palliative surgical treatment for SMJN.

Abstract
The atomic masses of ^{55}Sc, ^{56,58}Ti, and ^{56-59}V have been determined using the high-precision multireflection time-of-flight technique. The radioisotopes have been produced at RIKEN's Radioactive Isotope Beam Factory (RIBF) and delivered to the novel designed gas cell and multireflection system, which has been recently commissioned downstream of the ZeroDegree spectrometer following the BigRIPS separator. For ^{56,58}Ti and ^{56-59}V, the mass uncertainties have been reduced down to the order of 10 keV, shedding new light on the N=34 shell effect in Ti and V isotopes by the first high-precision mass measurements of the critical species ^{58}Ti and ^{59}V. With the new precision achieved, we reveal the nonexistence of the N=34 empirical two-neutron shell gaps for Ti and V, and the enhanced energy gap above the occupied νp_{3/2} orbit is identified as a feature unique to Ca. We perform new Monte Carlo shell model calculations including the νd_{5/2} and νg_{9/2} orbits and compare the results with conventional shell model calculations, which exclude the νg_{9/2} and the νd_{5/2} orbits. The comparison indicates that the shell gap reduction in Ti is related to a partial occupation of the higher orbitals for the outer two valence neutrons at N=34.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Although many studies have supported the efficacy of transplacental treatment for fetal supraventricular tachyarrhythmia, the long-term neurodevelopmental outcome after antenatal antiarrhythmic treatment is not well understood. The aim of this study was to investigate the prognosis and neurodevelopmental outcome at 36 months of corrected age and the incidence of tachyarrhythmia after birth, following protocol-defined antenatal therapy for fetal supraventricular tachyarrhythmia. METHODS This was a 3-year follow-up study of a multicenter trial that evaluated the efficacy and safety of protocol-defined transplacental treatment for fetal supraventricular tachycardia (SVT) and atrial flutter (AFL). The primary endpoints were mortality and neurodevelopmental impairment (NDI) at 36 months of corrected age. NDI was defined as any of the following outcomes: cerebral palsy, bilateral blindness, bilateral deafness or neurodevelopmental delay. Neurodevelopmental delay was evaluated using appropriate developmental quotient scales, mainly the Kyoto Scale of Psychological Development, or examination by pediatric neurologists. The detection rate of tachyarrhythmia at birth and at 18 and 36 months of corrected age was also evaluated as the secondary endpoint. In addition, the association of NDI at 36 months with perinatal and postnatal factors was analyzed. RESULTS Of 50 patients enrolled in the original trial, one withdrew consent and in two there was fetal death, leaving 47 patients available for enrollment in this follow-up study. Of these, 45 cases were available for analysis after two infants were lost to follow-up. The mortality rate was 2.2% (1/45) during a median follow-up of 3.2 (range, 2.1-9.4) years. The infant died at the age of 2.1 years. Another infant had missing neurodevelopmental assessment data. In the remaining 43 infants, at 36 months of corrected age, NDI was detected in 9.3% (4/43) overall and in two of three (66.7%) cases with fetal hydrops with subcutaneous edema. Cerebral palsy was noted in two infants with severe subcutaneous edema or ascites at an early gestational age. Neurodevelopmental delay was found in two infants with severe congenital abnormalities (one with tuberous sclerosis and the other with heterotaxy syndrome). Tachyarrhythmia was present in 31.9% (15/47) cases in the neonatal period and decreased to 8.9% (4/45) and 4.5% (2/44) at 18 and 36 months of corrected age, respectively. The median ventricular rate at diagnosis was significantly higher in infants with NDI compared to those without (265 vs 229 bpm; P = 0.003). In infants with NDI, compared to those without, fetal hydrops with subcutaneous edema at diagnosis was more common (50.0% vs 2.6%; P = 0.019) and the duration of fetal effusion was longer (median, 10.5 vs 0 days; P = 0.013). Postnatal arrhythmia and physical development abnormalities were not associated with NDI. CONCLUSIONS This multicenter 3-year follow-up study is the first to demonstrate the long-term mortality and morbidity of infants born following protocol-defined transplacental treatment for fetal SVT and AFL. NDI was associated with the presence of fetal hydrops with subcutaneous edema at diagnosis and longer duration of fetal effusion. Neurodevelopmental delay was detected only in infants with severe congenital abnormalities. Therefore, in infants that have undergone antenatal treatment for fetal tachyarrhythmia and in which there are no comorbidities, the risk of NDI is low. However, in those with fetal hydrops with subcutaneous edema and/or associated severe congenital abnormalities, the risk for long-term neurologic morbidity might be considered somewhat increased. © 2022 International Society of Ultrasound in Obstetrics and Gynecology.

Abstract
A parturient with VACTERL association (vertebral defects, anal atresia, cardiac defects, trachea-oesophageal fistula, renal abnormalities and limb abnormalities) was listed for an elective caesarean section. She had a short neck with reduced cervical extension and flexion. Magnetic resonance imaging of her whole spine was performed which showed failure of cervical spine segmentation and cervical stenosis. Neuraxial blockade could have resulted in unpredictable spread of local anaesthetic due to the low volume of the spinal canal, and could have caused myelopathic changes within the spinal cord due to cerebrospinal fluid pressure changes. A general anaesthetic using a rapid sequence induction was also predicted to be challenging due to her fixed, unstable neck and severe cervical spine stenosis. After a multidisciplinary discussion Including neurosurgeons, we planned for awake tracheal intubation followed by general anaesthesia. However, before the date of her planned delivery, she required an urgent caesarean section due to severe preeclampsia. This was performed under general anaesthesia following uncomplicated awake tracheal intubation.

Abstract
A solid-state Z-scheme system is constructed whereby rutile titania (TiO2) and beta-iron disilicide (β-FeSi2) were combined to act as oxygen (O2)- and hydrogen (H2)-evolution photocatalysts, respectively, connected by gold (Au). β-FeSi2 island grains with diameters in the 0.5-2 μm range were formed on the surface of Au-coated TiO2 powder by the co-sputtering method. On the surface of TiO2 powder, the Au-Si liquidus phase was obtained via a Au-Si eutectic reaction, which contributed to the selective deposition and crystallization of β-FeSi2 island grains onto Au. After the loading of the H2-evolution cocatalysts platinum and chromium oxide onto β-FeSi2, the system obtained catalyzed the evolution of H2 and O2 in a stoichiometric ratio from pure water under ultraviolet light irradiation. The transfer of photoexcited electrons in the conduction band (CB) of β-FeSi2 to Pt causes the reduction of protons to H2, and the photogeneration of holes in the valence band (VB) of TiO2 causes the oxidation of water to O2. In addition, the photogenerated holes in the VB of β-FeSi2 and the photoexcited electrons in the CB of TiO2 combined with each other in the Au layer, affording the completion of the overall photocatalytic water-splitting.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE West syndrome is a developmental and epileptic encephalopathy characterized by epileptic spasms, neurodevelopmental regression, and a specific EEG pattern called hypsarrhythmia. Our aim was to investigate the brain activities related to hypsarrhythmia at onset and focal epileptiform discharges in the remote period in children with West syndrome using simultaneous electroencephalography and fMRI recordings. MATERIALS AND METHODS Fourteen children with West syndrome underwent simultaneous electroencephalography and fMRI at the onset of West syndrome. Statistically significant blood oxygen level-dependent responses related to hypsarrhythmia were analyzed using an event-related design of 4 hemodynamic response functions with peaks at 3, 5, 7, and 9 seconds after the onset of each event. Six of 14 children had focal epileptiform discharges after treatment and underwent simultaneous electroencephalography and fMRI from 12 to 25 months of age. RESULTS At onset, positive blood oxygen level-dependent responses were seen in the brainstem (14/14 patients), thalami (13/14), basal ganglia (13/14), and hippocampi (13/14), in addition to multiple cerebral cortices. Group analysis using hemodynamic response functions with peaks at 3, 5, and 7 seconds showed positive blood oxygen level-dependent responses in the brainstem, thalamus, and hippocampus, while positive blood oxygen level-dependent responses in multiple cerebral cortices were seen using hemodynamic response functions with peaks at 5 and 7 seconds. In the remote period, 3 of 6 children had focal epileptiform discharge-related positive blood oxygen level-dependent responses in the thalamus, hippocampus, and brainstem. CONCLUSIONS Positive blood oxygen level-dependent responses with hypsarrhythmia appeared in the brainstem, thalamus, and hippocampus on earlier hemodynamic response functions than the cerebral cortices, suggesting the propagation of epileptogenic activities from the deep brain structures to the neocortices. Activation of the hippocampus, thalamus, and brainstem was still seen in half of the patients with focal epileptiform discharges after adrenocorticotropic hormone therapy.

Abstract
To study the effects of autophagy inducer carbamazepine (CBZ) in a high-fat diet (HFD)/streptozotocin (STZ)-related early hepatocarcinogenesis model, we determined autophagic flux by immunohistochemical analysis of autophagy marker expression in preneoplastic liver foci and compared that with the expression of the NADPH oxidase subunit. Male F344 rats were fed a basal diet or HFD and subjected to two-stage hepatocarcinogenesis; diabetes mellitus was induced via STZ administration. Several STZ-treated, HFD-fed rats were administered CBZ (a total of five doses every one or two days) at week 7 and 8. STZ-treated, HFD-fed rats decreased β cells in the islet of Langerhans and increased adipophilin-positive lipid droplets in the liver; moreover, they had a larger area of glutathione S-transferase placental form-immunopositive preneoplastic liver foci, which was associated with inhibition of autophagy and induction of the NADPH oxidase subunit, as demonstrated by increased immunohistochemical expression of an autophagosome receptor marker microtubule-associated protein light chain 3 (LC3)-binding protein p62, and of an NADPH oxidase subunit p22phox in the preneoplastic foci. An increased trend of an autophagy phagophore marker LC3 in preneoplastic foci was also detected. CBZ administration could induce autophagy and impair p22phox expression, as shown by altered expression of autophagy regulators (Atg5, Atg6, Lamp1, Lamp2, and Lc3), NADPH oxidase subunits (P22phox and P67phox), and antioxidant enzymes Gpx1 and Gpx2. These results suggest that inhibition of autophagy and induction of p22phox might contribute to HFD/STZ-related early hepatocarcinogenesis in rats; however, the effects of CBZ administration on the STZ/HFD-increased preneoplastic foci were marginal in this study.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the predictors of a difficult Pringle maneuver (PM) in laparoscopic liver resection (LLR) and to assess alternative procedures to PM. METHODS Data from patients undergoing LLR between 2013 and 2020 were reviewed retrospectively. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed and the outcomes of patients who underwent PM or alternative procedures were compared. RESULTS Among 106 patients who underwent LLR, PM could not be performed in 18 (17.0%) because of abdominal adhesions in 14 (77.8%) and/or collateral flow around the hepatoduodenal ligament in 5 (27.8%). Multivariate analysis revealed that Child-Pugh classification B (p = 0.034) and previous liver resection (p < 0.001) were independently associated with difficulty in performing PM in LLR. We evaluated pre-coagulation of liver tissue using microwave tissue coagulators, saline irrigation monopolar, clamping of the hepatoduodenal ligament using an intestinal clip, and hand-assisted laparoscopic surgery as alternatives procedures to PM. There were no significant differences in blood loss (p = 0.391) or transfusion (p = 0.518) between the PM and alternative procedures. CONCLUSIONS Child-Pugh classification B and previous liver resection were identified as predictors of a difficult PM in LLR. The alternative procedures were found to be effective.

Abstract
BackgroundThe administration of Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitors as well as biological disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs has dramatically improved even the clinical outcomes in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients with inadequate response to methotrexate (MTX). The dysregulation of JAK- signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT) pathways via overproduction of cytokines, such as interleukin-6 (IL-6) is involved in the pathogenesis of RA (1). Filgotinib, a preferential JAK1 inhibitor, is effective in suppressing disease activity and preventing the progression of joint destruction due to inhibition of the JAK-STAT pathway. IL-6 inhibitors such as tocilizumab also inhibit the JAK-STAT pathways due to inhibition of IL-6 signaling. Thus, it should be desirable to investigate whether the effectiveness of filgotinib monotherapy is non-inferior to those of tocilizumab monotherapy in RA patients with inadequate response to MTX. In addition, it is important to accurately evaluate disease activity at the joint level by using musculoskeletal ultrasound (MSUS) and clinical disease activity indices, including subjective parameters (2).ObjectivesThis study’s principal objective is to evaluate the effects of filgotinib monotherapy is non-inferior to those of tocilizumab monotherapy in RA patients with inadequate response to MTX. In addition, we will evaluate changes in patients’ parameters, including clinical disease activity indices, MSUS scores, serum biomarkers, patient-reported outcome (PRO), and modified total Sharp score (mTSS) after the administration of filgotinib or tocilizumab. Herein, we describe the study protocol for this study.MethodsThis study is an interventional, multicenter, randomized, open-label, parallel-group and non-inferiority clinical trial with a 52-week follow-up. In total, 400 RA patients with at least moderate disease activity during treatment with MTX will be included. Patients will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to administration of filgotinib 200mg/day monotherapy or subcutaneous tocilizumab 162mg/biweekly monotherapy switched from MTX (Figure 1). We will evaluate disease activity by measuring clinical disease activity indices and by using MSUS. The primary endpoint is the proportion of patients who achieve an American College of Rheumatology 50 response at week 12. Important secondary endpoints are the changes from the baseline of the MSUS scores, PRO, and mTSS. We will also comprehensively analyze the serum levels of multiple biomarkers such as cytokines and chemokines.Figure 1.ResultsAlthough the study results cannot be shown because the research entry is in progress, they are expected to show the non-inferiority of filgotinib monotherapy to tocilizumab monotherapy in RA patients with inadequate response to MTX.ConclusionThe strength of this study is its prospective evaluation of therapeutic efficacy using not only clinical disease activity indices but also MSUS, which accurately and objectively evaluate disease activity at the joint level among patients drawn from multiple centers with a standardized evaluation by MSUS. In addition, we will evaluate the effectiveness of both drugs by integrating multilateral assessments, i.e., clinical disease activity indices, MSUS findings, and serum biomarkers.References[1]Gadina M, Le MT, Schwartz DM, Silvennoinen O, Nakayamada S, Yamaoka K, et al.

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

Abstract
The ethanol extract from the wood of Taxus Yunnanensis (TY) induced apoptosis in all cancer cell lines tested, which was mainly due to activation of an extrinsic pathway in human colon cancer DLD-1 cells. The extrinsic pathway was activated by the upregulation of the expression levels of Fas and TRAIL/DR5, which led to the activation of caspase-8. Of note, the machinery of this increase in expression was promoted by the upregulation of MIR32a expression, which silenced MIR34a-targeting E2F3 transcription factor. Furthermore, ectopic expression of MIR32a or siR-E2F3 silencing E2F3 increased Fas and TRAIL/DR5 expression. Thus, the extract activated the extrinsic pathway through the MIR34a/E2F3 axis, resulting in the autocrine and paracrine release of TRAIL, and upregulated expression of death receptors Fas and DR5 in the treated DLD-1 cells, which were functionally validated by Fas immunocytochemistry, and using anti-Fas and anti-TRAIL antibodies, respectively. In vivo, TY showed significant anti-tumor effects on xenografted and syngeneic model mice. The extract may also aid in chemoprevention by selectively making marked tumor cells susceptible to the tumor immunosurveillance system.

Abstract
Funding Acknowledgements
Type of funding sources: None.
Background
Previous studies have shown that von Willebrand factor (VWF) increases, and a disintegrin-like and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin type-1 motifs 13 (ADAMTS13) decreases in myocardial infarction. Few studies have examined the involvement of the VWF-ADAMTS13 axis in ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients with atrial fibrillation (AF).
Purpose
Our aim was to investigate VWF-ADAMTS13 axis involvement in atrial fibrillation in STEMI.
Methods
The subjects of this study were participants in an observational study for investigating the difference in the pathology of thrombus retrieved from infarct-related artery between AF and sinus rhythm (SR). From June 2019 to August 2020, patients who underwent thrombus aspiration for STEMI at our hospital. Only subjects whose thrombus could be confirmed were enrolled. They were divided into two groups, the AF group, and the SR group. Serum biomarkers, including ADAMTS13 activity, and VWF were evaluated.
Results
34 patients with STEMI who were able to aspirate thrombus were enrolled in the study. They were divided into two groups: 6 patients with AF (AF group, mean age 72.5 years, 100% male) and 28 patients with SR (SR group, mean age 63.0 years, 100% male). ADAMTS13 activity was significantly lower in AF group than SR group (AF: 0.63 ± 0.14 vs. SR: 0.77 ± 0.13 U / mL, p = 0.037). There was no significant difference in VWF antigen between the two groups (AF: 251 ± 56 vs. SR: 204 ± 69%, p = 0.170). VWF/ADAMTS13 activity in AF group were significantly higher than in SR group.
Conclusion
Our study suggests an association between the VWF-ADAMTS13 axis and atrial fibrillation in STEMI. Abstract Table. Comparison of serum biomarkers

Abstract
Diet is a crucial factor for preventing most diseases. Edible plant extracts are known to contain exosome-like nanoparticles, in which food-derived plant microRNAs are included and may serve as a novel functional component in human health. Here, we demonstrated that hvu-MIR168-3p included in the nanoparticles of rice aleurone cells down-regulated the expression of the genes related to mitochondrial electron transport chain complex I in human cells. Subsequently, hvu-MIR168-3p enhanced protein and RNA expression levels of glucose transporter I and caused a decrease in the blood glucose level, which findings were obtained by in vitro and in vivo experiments, respectively. These findings suggest that a cross-kingdom relationship between plants and humans with respect to hvu-MIR168-3p exists and may contribute to preventive medicine for GLUT1-related dysfunctions including glucose metabolism, aging, and tumor immunology.

Abstract
Macro-autophagy (autophagy) is a highly conserved eukaryotic intracellular process of self-digestion caused by lysosomes on demand, which is upregulated as a survival strategy upon exposure to various stressors, such as metabolic insults, cytotoxic drugs, and alcohol abuse. Paradoxically, autophagy dysfunction also contributes to cancer and aging. It is well known that regulating autophagy by targeting specific regulatory molecules in its machinery can modulate multiple disease processes. Therefore, autophagy represents a significant pharmacological target for drug development and therapeutic interventions in various diseases, including cancers. According to the framework of autophagy, the suppression or induction of autophagy can exert therapeutic properties through the promotion of cell death or cell survival, which are the two main events targeted by cancer therapies. Remarkably, natural products have attracted attention in the anticancer drug discovery field, because they are biologically friendly and have potential therapeutic effects. In this review, we summarize the up-to-date knowledge regarding natural products that can modulate autophagy in various cancers. These findings will provide a new position to exploit more natural compounds as potential novel anticancer drugs and will lead to a better understanding of molecular pathways by targeting the various autophagy stages of upcoming cancer therapeutics.

Abstract
Mitochondrial electron transport chain complex I (ETCC1) is the essential core of cancer metabolism, yet potent ETCC1 inhibitors capable of safely suppressing tumor growth and metastasis in vivo are limited. From a plant extract screening, we identified petasin (PT) as a highly potent ETCC1 inhibitor with a chemical structure distinct from conventional inhibitors. PT had at least 1700 times higher activity than that of metformin or phenformin and induced cytotoxicity against a broad spectrum of tumor types. PT administration also induced prominent growth inhibition in multiple syngeneic and xenograft mouse models in vivo. Despite its higher potency, it showed no apparent toxicity toward nontumor cells and normal organs. Also, treatment with PT attenuated cellular motility and focal adhesion in vitro as well as lung metastasis in vivo. Metabolome and proteome analyses revealed that PT severely depleted the level of aspartate, disrupted tumor-associated metabolism of nucleotide synthesis and glycosylation, and downregulated major oncoproteins associated with proliferation and metastasis. These findings indicate the promising potential of PT as a potent ETCC1 inhibitor to target the metabolic vulnerability of tumor cells.

Abstract
Awareness of variations in the hepatic vasculature and biliary system is extremely important for avoiding iatrogenic injury in upper-abdominal surgery. The objective of this study is to describe a rare case of abnormal vascular and biliary structures in the hepatocystic triangle (HCT) (the modern Calot's triangle). During anatomical dissection of the celiac trunk (CT) in an old man, the authors observed the presence of a hepatosplenic trunk arising from the CT and bifurcating into common hepatic and splenic arteries. The common hepatic artery divided into hepatic artery proper and gastroduodenal artery. The presence of accessory right hepatic artery (ARHA) arising from the superior mesenteric artery was also notable. The aberrant artery ascended retropancreatically ventral to the splenic vein, then posterolaterally to the portal vein before termination into the right hepatic lobe in the HCT. Within this triangle, there was an aberrant bile duct originating in the right hepatic lobe and ending in the common hepatic duct. This accessory duct crossed the ARHA and an associated branch (the cystic artery). There is no known previous report on the co-existence of an AHAR and an aberrant bile duct within the HCT, in addition to the hepatosplenic trunk. The clinical implications of the current case are addressed in discussion.

Abstract
Background The sociocultural phenomenon affecting daily occupations of hospitalised children with cancer in a diverse country like Indonesia is thought-provoking and requires exploration. Objective This study aims to explore the sociocultural contexts related to daily occupations of children with cancer during hospital admittance from the parents' perspective. Methods Semi-structured interviews were conducted with parents of children with cancer who had been hospitalised for two weeks or more. The data were collected at the paediatric ward of “Dharmais” National Cancer Center Hospital, Jakarta. The study uses interpretative phenomenological analysis (IPA). Results Nine parents of children with cancer consented to the study. Three interconnected themes emerged as necessary to the sociocultural context among participants. These involve ‘The surrounding human environment as primary encouragement’, ‘Culture and spirituality as the basic standard’ and ‘Activity adjustments as new habits’. Conclusions The themes revealed that the daily occupations of hospitalised children with cancer are strongly encouraged by family and social systems in Indonesia, spiritual aspects of the parents and the occupational changes due to the new settings.
