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

Abstract
Purpose Surgical workflow recognition is a challenging task that requires understanding multiple aspects of surgery, such as gestures, phases, and steps. However, most existing methods focus on single-task or single-modal models and rely on costly annotations for training. To address these limitations, we propose a novel semi-supervised learning approach that leverages multimodal data and self-supervision to create meaningful representations for various surgical tasks. Methods Our representation learning approach conducts two processes. In the first stage, time contrastive learning is used to learn spatiotemporal visual features from video data, without any labels. In the second stage, multimodal VAE fuses the visual features with kinematic data to obtain a shared representation, which is fed into recurrent neural networks for online recognition. Results Our method is evaluated on two datasets: JIGSAWS and MISAW. We confirmed that it achieved comparable or better performance in multi-granularity workflow recognition compared to fully supervised models specialized for each task. On the JIGSAWS Suturing dataset, we achieve a gesture recognition accuracy of 83.3%. In addition, our model is more efficient in annotation usage, as it can maintain high performance with only half of the labels. On the MISAW dataset, we achieve 84.0% AD-Accuracy in phase recognition and 56.8% AD-Accuracy in step recognition. Conclusion Our multimodal representation exhibits versatility across various surgical tasks and enhances annotation efficiency. This work has significant implications for real-time decision-making systems within the operating room.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aimed to examine the relationship between daily physical activity and the phase angle (PhA) obtained by bioelectrical impedance analysis in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients. METHODS Data from a prospective cohort study of RA patients who were surveyed every year were analysed. The PhA was assessed by the bioelectrical impedance analysis method, and physical activity was assessed as the amount of time of exercise in metabolic equivalents (METs) per day using a triaxial accelerometer for 7 consecutive days. The association between physical activity and the PhA was evaluated using the isotemporal substitution model in multiple regression analysis. RESULTS Seventy-six RA patients were included in the analysis (81% female and age 66.2 ± 13.1 years). On cross-sectional analysis, the isotemporal substitution model in multiple regression analysis showed that the PhA was 0.05 points higher every 10 minutes when activities with intensity of 1 ≤ METs < 2 were replaced by activities with intensity of ≥3 METs (P = .01). Over 1 year, the rate of change in the PhA was 0.69% higher every 10 minutes when activities with intensity of 1 ≤ METs < 2 were replaced by activities with intensity of ≥3 METs (P = .037). CONCLUSION The PhA in RA patients may be related to physical activity level.

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

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

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

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

Abstract
Peroxiredoxins (Prxs) belong to a family of ubiquitously expressed peroxidases that detoxify reactive oxygen species. In addition to their enzymatic function, Prxs also function as molecular chaperones. This functional switch is related to their degree of oligomerization. We have previously revealed that Prx2 interacts with anionic phospholipids and that the anionic phospholipid-containing Prx2 oligomer forms a high molecular weight (HMW) complex in a nucleotide-dependent manner. However, the detailed mechanism of the oligomer and HMW complex formation remains unclear. In this study, we investigated the anionic phospholipid binding site in Prx2 using site-directed mutagenesis to understand the mechanism of the oligomer formation. Our findings demonstrated that six binding site residues in Prx2 are important for the binding of anionic phospholipids.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Spheroids can allow three-dimensional (3D) cell culture without scaffolds, potentially promoting the production of growth factors from adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs). We hypothesized that ADSC spheroids exert more favourable effects on osteochondral defects than ADSCs in two-dimensional (2D) cultures. The purpose of this study was to compare the therapeutic effects of 2D and 3D cultures of ADSCs on osteochondral defects using animal models. METHODS Rat femoral osteochondral defects were created. When creating osteochondral defects, phosphate-buffered saline, 2D ADSCs, or ADSC spheroids as a 3D culture were administered on to the lesion. At 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 and 12 weeks post-surgery, knee tissues were harvested and evaluated via histological examination. The expression of genes related to growth factors and apoptosis were compared between 2D and 3D ADSCs. RESULTS Histologically, the repair of osteochondral defects was significantly enhanced in 3D ADSCs than in 2D ADSCs in terms of the Wakitani score and cartilage repair rate. In 3D ADSCs, TGF-β1, VEGF, HGF and BMP-2 were significantly upregulated, while apoptosis was suppressed in the early phase. CONCLUSION The therapeutic effects of 3D ADSC spheroids on osteochondral defects were more potent than those of 2D ADSCs. The upregulated expression of growth factors and suppression of apoptosis could contribute to promoting these therapeutic effects. Overall, ADSC spheroids can help treat osteochondral defects.

Abstract
Reactive sulfur species (RSS) have emerged as key regulators of protein quality control. However, the mechanisms by which RSS contribute to cellular processes are not fully understood. In this study, we identified a novel function of RSS in preventing parthanatos, a non-apoptotic form of cell death that is induced by poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1) and mediated by the aggresome-like induced structures (ALIS) composed of SQSTM1/p62. We found that sodium tetrasulfide (Na2S4), a donor of RSS, strongly suppressed oxidative stress-dependent ALIS formation and subsequent parthanatos. On the other hand, the inhibitors of the RSS-producing enzymes, such as 3-mercaptopyruvate sulfurtransferase (3-MST) and cystathionine γ-lyase (CSE), clearly enhanced ALIS formation and parthanatos. Interestingly, we found that Na2S4 activated heat shock factor 1 (HSF1) by promoting its dissociation from heat shock protein 90 (HSP90), leading to accelerated transcription of HSP70. Considering that the genetic deletion of HSP70 allowed the enhanced ALIS formation, these findings suggest that RSS prevent parthanatos by specifically suppressing ALIS formation through induction of HSP70. Taken together, our results demonstrate a novel mechanism by which RSS prevent cell death, as well as a novel physiological role of RSS in contributing to protein quality control through HSP70 induction, which may lead to better understanding of the bioactivity of RSS.

Abstract
Objectives Behavioral restrictions and staying at home during the COVID-19 pandemic have affected lifestyles. It was hypothesized that patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) decreased their activities of daily living (ADL) and exercise during the pandemic. The aim of this study is to investigate the changes in lifestyle and body composition. Methods Data were obtained from an observational study (CHIKARA study). Of 100 RA patients, 70 (57 women, 13 men) were followed-up with measurements of grip strength, as well as muscle mass, fat mass, and basal metabolic rate by a body composition analyzer. Changes in ADL and exercise were evaluated using a visual analog scale. The relationships between changes in ADL or exercise and body composition were investigated. Results Muscle mass and grip strength were significantly lower after behavioral restrictions compared to the periods before restrictions (34.0 vs 34.7 kg, P < 0.001; 16.2 vs 17.2 kg, P = 0.013, respectively). Fat mass was significantly greater after behavioral restrictions compared to the periods before restrictions (16.2 vs 15.5 kg, P = 0.014). The mean decrease in ADL was 44%, whereas that of exercise was 20%. The change in muscle mass (β = −0.335, P = 0.007) was the only independent factor for the change in exercise on multivariate analysis. Conclusions Muscle mass and grip strength decreased and fat mass increased in RA patients with the behavioral restrictions of the COVID-19 pandemic. Muscle mass decreased in patients without exercise. Maintenance of muscle mass may be important during the COVID-19 pandemic.

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

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

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study investigated whether the phase angle (PhA) on bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) is related to frailty in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients. METHODS Data from a prospective cohort study of RA patients were analyzed. The PhA was assessed by the BIA method, and frailty was assessed by the Kihon Check List (KCL) annually. The cutoff value of the PhA for frailty was calculated by receiver-operating characteristic analysis. The relationships between the PhA and frailty were evaluated by logistic regression analysis. The relationships between the change in PhA and frailty status and the KCL score were evaluated by analysis of covariance and multiple regression analysis. RESULTS A total of 170 patients (81.2% female, 66.2±13.1 years) were included in the analysis. A PhA of less than the cutoff for frailty was significantly associated with frailty (odds ratio: 4.75, 95% confidence interval: 1.86-12.17). Change in the PhA was significantly associated with change in the KCL score (β = -0.15). In robust patients, there was a significant difference in the rate of change of the PhA between the group that became pre-frail in the next year and the group that remained robust. CONCLUSIONS The PhA may be associated with frailty in RA patients.

Abstract
BackgroundRecently, the disease activity of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) was improved due to the ‘treat-to-target’ strategy. However, some patients remain various symptoms despite recommended treatment was performed. Then, the term of ‘difficult-to-treat RA (D2TRA)’ is widely recognized. Janus kinase inhibitor (JAKi) might be effective for D2TRA patients, because JAKi can simultaneously block the function of multiple cytokines.ObjectivesThe aim of this study was to evaluate drug retention rate and effectiveness of JAKi in patients with D2TRA.MethodsThis study included 220 RA patients (tofacitinib 101, baricitinib 83, upadacitinib 20, peficitinib 14, filgotinib 2) treated with JAKi. Sixty-two patients were treated as first line bDMARDs/JAKi (1st group), 57 patients were treated as second line bDMARDs/ JAKi (2nd group), 101 patients were treated as third and more bDMARDs/ JAKi. In these 101 patients, 25 patients did not met D2TRA criteria (non-D2TRA group) and 76 patients met D2TRA criteria (D2TRA group). Drug retention rate and effectiveness of JAKi were evaluated during 24 weeks in each group.ResultsUsage rate of methotrexate was lower and dosage of glucocorticoid was higher in D2TRA group than in other groups (Table 1). Drug retention rate at 24 weeks was 87.1% (54/62) in 1st group, 80.1% (46/57) in 2nd group, 88% (22/25) in non-D2TRA group, 61.8% (47/76) in D2TRA group. Drug retention rate was lower in D2TRA group compared to 1st group, 2nd group and non-DT2RA group (p<0.01, p=0.03, p=0.01). DAS28-CRP was 4.4, 4.0, 3.9, 4.4 at baseline, 3.0, 3.0, 3.3, 3.5 at 4 weeks, 2.5, 2.9, 2.7, 3.3 at 12 weeks, 2.5, 3.0, 2.9, 3.2 at 24 weeks in 1st group, 2nd group, non-D2TRA group and D2TRA group, respectively. Improvement ratio of DAS28-CRP was 32.9, 27.6, 20.4, 19.3 % at 4 weeks, 40.8, 26.5, 28.1, 19.5 % at 12 weeks, 40.8, 24.6, 18.7, 24.7 % at 24 weeks. DAS28-CRP was improved in all groups. Altough 1st group showed higher improvement ratio of DAS28-CRP at 24 weeks compared to 2nd group, non-DT2RA group and D2TRA group (p<0.01, p<0.01, p<0.01), there was no differences between DT2RA group and 2nd group or non-D2TRA group (p=0.95, p=0.48). SDAI was 22.9, 19.9, 18.3, 23.9 at baseline, 11.8, 11.9, 13.3, 14.4 at 4 weeks, 7.9, 11.3, 8.4, 13.3 at 12 weeks, 8.5, 11.5, 9.7, 12.6 at 24 weeks. CDAI was 21.3, 18.8, 17.6, 21.8 at baseline, 11.3, 11.2, 12.5, 13.9 at 4 weeks, 7.5, 10.9, 8.0, 12.3 at 12 weeks, 8.1, 10.7, 8.6, 12.1 at 24 weeks. HAQ was 1.15, 0.99, 0.89, 1.39 at baseline, 0.84, 0.76, 0.93, 1.22 at 4 weeks, 0.79, 0.84, 0.77, 1.17 at 12 weeks, 0.76, 0.79, 0.76, 1.14 at 24 weeks.

Abstract
AIM To determine whether the pathological response to preoperative chemotherapy for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) can be predicted using 2-[18F]-fluoro-2-deoxy-d-glucose positron-emission tomography (F-18 FDG-PET). MATERIALS AND METHODS Twenty-eight patients with PDAC who underwent only neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) before surgery were enrolled in the study. All patients had F-18 FDG-PET examinations before NAC. The resected specimen was pathologically evaluated according to the Classification of Pancreatic Carcinoma (7th edn). Patients were categorised into a non-response group and a response group based on the pathological findings. The non-response group (Grades 1a and 1b) showed ≤50% necrosis in the specimen, while the specimens of the response group (Grades 2-3) showed >50% necrosis. The maximum standardised uptake values (SUVmax) of the tumours on F-18 FDG-PET were measured. The mean values of SUVmax were compared between the two groups. The diagnostic performance of SUVmax in distinguishing the two groups was also evaluated using receiver operating characteristic analysis. RESULTS The mean SUVmax of the response group was higher than that of the non-response group (9.00 ± 1.78 versus 4.26 ± 2.35; p<0.001). The optimal cut-off value of SUVmax was 9.28 for distinguishing the two groups. The sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy for the prediction in the response group were 80%, 95.7%, and 92.9%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS SUVmax on F-18 FDG-PET may be useful as a biomarker to predict the pathological response to NAC in patients with PDAC.

Abstract
BackgroundThe treatment option including biological DMARDs (BIO) and JAK inhibitor (JAK) was expanded, and the number of patients reached to the treatment target are increasing in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). On the other hand, it is also true that some patients are still using prednisolone (PSL). Recently, ultrasound has played a role of sensitive imaging modality in the diagnosis and follow-up of patients with RA. It is known that residual synovitis was found in ultrasound even in patients with clinical remission.ObjectivesWe investigated the differences of ultrasonographic intra-articular synovitis findings between treatment drugs in patients with RA.MethodsFrom January 2017 to August 2020, 750 RA patients who underwent ultrasound examination were included. A US examination was performed at the bilateral first to fifth metacarpophalangeal (MCP) joints, first interphalangeal (IP) and second to fifth proximal interphalangeal (PIP) joints, wrist joints (three part of radial, medial and ulnar) and first to fifth metatarsophalangeal (MTP) joints, by using HI VISION Ascendus (Hitachi Medical Corporation, Japan) with a multifrequency linear transducer (18-6 MHz). The gray scale and power Doppler findings were assessed by the semi-quantitative method (0-3). All patients were divided into with or without BIO / JAK, methotrexate (MTX) and PSL. Then, patients were matched using the propensity score adjusted for gender, age, RA disease duration, disease activity, CRP value, and MMP-3 value. The total gray scale and power Doppler score (GSUS / PDUS) were compared between treatment drugs of RA by using propensity score matching methods.ResultsThe average age of 750 RA patients were 64.5 years and an average disease duration of RA was 13.9 years and females were 581 (77.5%). There were 517 patients (68.9%) treated with BIO/JAK and 233 patients treated without BIO/JAK. The 205 patients in each group were matched. GSUS were 10.6±11.1 vs 9.2±10.4 (p=0.218) and PDUS 7.4±9.2 vs 6.5±9.0 (p=0.328). Ultrasound residual synovitis was not different between with or without BIO/JAK in matched patients. There were 525 patients (70.0%) treated MTX, the average MTX dose was 9.3 mg, and 225 patients treated without MTX. The 203 patients with or without MTX in each group were matched. GSUS were 9.7±10.6 vs 11.4±12.0 (p=0.119) and PDUS 6.6±8.8 vs 8.1±10.1 (p=0.117). Ultrasound residual synovitis was not different between with or without MTX in matched patients. There were 111 patients (14.8%) treated PSL, the average dose was 4.0mg, and 639 patients treated without PSL. The 105 patients with or without PSL in each group were matched. GSUS were 15.7±13.9 vs 11.6±10.6 (p=0.018) and PDUS 11.5±11.4 vs 8.1±9.6 (p=0.021). Ultrasound residual synovitis was more severe treated with PSL than without PSL in matched patients.ConclusionIn a comparison between RA patients matched backgrounds such as disease activity, there was no difference in ultrasound residual synovitis between patients with or without BIO/JAK and MTX. However, there was significant difference in patients with or without PSL. This suggests that PSL use suppresses clinical symptoms but does not improve synovitis. Thus, it should be noted that joint destruction may progress in patients treating with PSL.References[1]Grassi W, Okano T, Di Geso L, Filippucci E.

Abstract
BackgroundIn patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) who have residual synovitis even after using biological disease modified anti-rheumatic drug (bDMARDs), joint destruction may progress1,. The enhanced treatment such as shortening the dosing interval or dose escalation of bDMARDs are recommended for these patients, if allowed in package inserts 2, 3.ObjectivesWe investigated the effects of enhanced treatment in RA patients with residual synovitis under treatment with standard dose of bDMARDs.MethodsForty RA patients treated with standard dose of infliximab, tocilizumab or golimumab were included in this study. Ultrasound (US) examination was performed at the bilateral first to fifth metacarpophalangeal (MCP) joints, first interphalangeal (IP) and second to fifth proximal interphalangeal (PIP) joints, wrist joints (three parts of radial, medial and ulnar) and first to fifth metatarsophalangeal (MTP) joints, by using HI VISION Ascendus (Hitachi Medical Corporation, Japan) with a multifrequency linear transducer (18-6 MHz). Residual synovitis was defined as Power Doppler score (PD) ≥2. In patients with residual synovitis, we recommended enhanced treatment. The patients were divided into 3 groups, PD≥2/ET+ group (patients agreed enhanced treatment), PD≥2/ET- group (patients rejected enhanced treatment), and PD<2 group. We assessed ultrasound (PD score), laboratory data (CRP, MMP-3), disease activity (Simplified Disease Activity Index; SDAI), physical function (Health Assessment Questionnaire; HAQ), and joint destruction (modified Total Sharp Score; mTSS) at baseline and 1-year follow-up.ResultsThere were 9 patients in PD≥2/ET+ group and 31 patients in PD<2 group. PD≥2/ET+ group had significantly higher SDAI (p=0.027), MMP-3 (p=0.005), and PD (p<0.001) at baseline compared with PD<2 group, but their MMP-3 (p=0.019) and PD (p=0.042) were significantly decreased over 1 year. PD≥2/ET+ group had joint destruction before ET (p=0.022), but it was suppressed after ET and there was no significance in change in mTSS compared with PD<2 group (p>0.99) (Figure 1).Figure 1.Disease activity, ultrasound assessment and radiographic change from baseline (BL) to 1-year follow-up in RA patients with residual synovitis who had enhanced treatment (PD≥2/ET+) and those without active synovitis (PD<2).*Each parameter at BL and 1-year was statistically analyzed by Wilcoxin signed rank test only in PD≥2/ET+ group.**Difference in two groups at BL was statistically analyzed by Student t test or Mann-Whitney U test.SDAI: simplified disease activity index, HAQ: health assessment questionnaire, PD: Power Doppler, MMP-3: matrix metalloproteinase 3, mTSS: modified Total Sharp Score.ConclusionIn RA patients with the residual synovitis under treatment with standard dose of bDMARDs, enhanced treatment decreased the synovitis and suppressed the joint destruction.References[1]Nguyen H, Ruyssen-Witrand A, Gandjbakhch F, Constantin A, Foltz V, Cantagrel A.

Abstract
BackgroundWe previously reported the prevalence of frailty and relation of disease activity at patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA)1. The behavioral restriction of COVID-19 pandemic influenced for the lifestyle of people included patients with RA.ObjectivesThe relationship between the behavioral restriction of COVID-19 pandemic and frailty was investigated.MethodsWe used the date from prospective observational study (CHIKARA study: UMIN000023744). 70 from 100 patients with RA were followed-up and evaluated the frailty and subcategories (social, physical, mental, nutrition, and cognitive) by frailty checklist. The prevalence of frailty and the change of exercise and daily life activities by visual analog scale were investigated at pre- and post-behavioral restriction. The correlation of frailty and change of amount of exercise and daily life activity examined by univariate analysis.ResultsMean age was 69.7 years (women n=57, men n=13). The prevalence of frailty at post-behavioral restriction increased compared that at pre-behavioral restriction (post:35.8% vs pre:30.0%). Especially, cognitive and total score at post-behavioral restriction increased significantly. The rate of decrease of exercise by <25%, 26~50%, and 51%< were 70%, 21%, and 9%, respectively (mean:20% decrease).

Abstract
BackgroundRecently, the disease activity of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) was improved due to the ‘treat-to-target’ strategy. However, some patients remain various symptoms despite recommended treatment was performed. Then, the term of ‘difficult-to-treat RA (D2TRA)’ is widely recognized. It is unknown how the difference of type of biological disease-modifying anti rheumatic dugs (bDMARDs)/Janus kinase inhibitor (JAKi) will affect clinical efficacy in patients with D2TRA. Moreover, the risk factor to inhibit the clinical response in patients with D2TRA is unknown.ObjectivesThe aim of this study was to evaluate the treatment response in patients with D2TRA who were treated with interleukin 6 receptor inhibitor (IL-6Ri), abatacept and JAKi.MethodsThis study used the multicenter database included 673 RA patients treated with bDMARDs/JAKi (tocilizumab 240, sarilumab 67, abatacept 146, tofacitinib 101, baricitinib 83, upadacitinib 20, peficitinib 14, filgotinib 2). Two hundred forty-two patients were treated as first line bDMARDs/JAKi (IL-6Ri 117, abatacept 63, JAKi 62), 211 patients were treated as second line bDMARDs/JAKi (IL-6Ri 117, abatacept 37, JAKi 57), 220 patients were treated as third and more bDMARDs/JAKi. In these 220 patients, 82 patients did not meet D2TRA criteria (IL-6Ri 42, abatacept 15, JAKi 25) and 138 patients met D2TRA criteria (IL-6Ri 31, abatacept 31, JAKi 76). In all patients, we analyzed 138 patients with D2TRA (113 female, mean age was 63.1 ± 13.7 years). Drug retention rate and effectiveness of bDMARDs/JAKi in patients with D2TRA were evaluated for 24 weeks. Multivariate linear regression analysis was performed to clarify the risk factors to inhibit the clinical response.ResultsDrug retention rate of patients with D2TRA at 24 weeks was 67.7% in IL-6Ri group, 74.2% in abatacept group, 61.8% in JAKi group. Drug retention rate in patients with D2TRA was not different between groups (IL-6Ri vs abatacept: p=0.86, IL-6Ri vs JAKi group: p=0.39, abatacept vs JAKi group: p=0.33). DAS28-CRP at 4, 12, 24 weeks decreased in all group (Figure 1). Abatacept showed lower improvement ratio of DAS28-CRP at 24 weeks compared to IL-6Ri group (IL-6Ri vs abatacept: p<0.01, IL-6Ri vs JAKi: p=0.1, abatacept vs JAKi: p=0.07). Good responder (defined as decrease in DAS28-CRP score > 1.2 with a score < 3.2) was 52.4% patients in IL-6Ri, 17.4% patients in abatacept, 29.8% patients in JAKi. SDAI and CDAI at 4, 12, 24 weeks decreased in all group (Figure 1). There were no diferences between the groups in improvement ratio of SDAI (IL-6Ri vs abatacept: p=0.11, IL-6Ri vs JAKi: p=0.81, abatacept vs JAKi: p=0.08) and CDAI (IL-6Ri vs abatacept: p=0.31, IL-6Ri vs JAKi: p=0.82, abatacept vs JAKi: p=0.13) at 24 weeks. HAQ was 1.42, 1.15, 1.39 at baseline, 1.27, 1.07, 1.22 at 4 weeks, 1.17, 1.07, 1.17 at 12 weeks, 1.26, 1.06, 1.14 at 24 weeks in IL-6Ri group, abatacept and JAKi, respectively. Multivariate linear regression analysis revealed that high HAQ (β=0.28, p=0.02) and high dosage of glucocorticoid (β=0.67, p<0.01) inhibited the improvement of DAS28-CRP. Type of bDMARDs/JAKi (β=-0.09, p=0.36) did not affect the DAS28-CRP improvement for 24 weeks.Table 1.Multivariate linear regression analysis of risk factor to inhibit the clinical response in patients with D2TRA.β95% CIpAge (years)-0.037-0.025, 0.0170.74male-0.047-0.788, 0.4860.64Disease durations (years)-0.048-0.028, 0.0170.63RF (IU/ml)-0.082-0.0004, 0.00020.41Anti CCP antibody (U/ml)0.111-0.0005, 0.0020.26DAS28-CRP-0.063-0.265, 0.1420.55HAQ0.2790.059, 0.7170.02MTX (mg/day)0.136-0.018, 0.0810.21Glucocorticoid dose (mg/day)0.6690.174, 0.324< 0.01Type of bDMARDs/JAKi-0.088-0.415, 0.1510.36ConclusionDrug retention rate and clinical efficacy of D2TRA patients were not different among IL-6Ri, abatacept and JAKi. DT2RA patient with functional disorder and high dosage of glucocorticoid were risk factor to inhibit the clinical response.Disclosure of InterestsNone declared

Abstract
BackgroundWe previously reported the prevalence of sarcopenia and body compositions at patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA)1. The behavioral restriction of COVID-19 pandemic influenced for the lifestyle of people included patients with RA.ObjectivesThe change of exercise and daily life activity of patients with RA were investigated and body composition and muscle function were compared pre- and post-behavioral restriction.MethodsWe used the date from prospective observational study (CHIKARA study: UMIN000023744). 70 from 100 patients with RA were followed-up and evaluated the change of exercise and daily life activity by visual analog scale. They were measured the muscle mass, fat mass, basal metabolic rate by body composition analyzer and grip strength as muscle function. The relationship between the change of exercise and daily life activity and body composition was investigated by univariate analysis.ResultsMean age was 69.7 years (women n=57, men n=13). The rate of decrease of exercise by <25%, 26~50%, and 51%< were 70%, 21%, and 9%, respectively (mean:20% decrease). Whereas, the rate of decrease of daily life activities by <25%, 26~50%, and 51%< were 37%, 27%, and 36%, respectively (mean:44% decrease). Muscle mass at post-behavioral restriction decrease significantly compared that at pre-behavioral restriction activities (34.0kg vs 34.7kg, P<0.001). Fat mass at post-behavioral restriction increase significantly compared that at pre-behavioral restriction (16.2kg vs 15.5kg, P=0.014). Grip strength at post-behavioral restriction decrease significantly compared that at pre-behavioral restriction (16.2kg vs 17.2kg, P=0.026). The change of exercise was significantly positively correlated with the change of muscle mass and basal metabolic rate (R=0.273, P=0.021 and R=0.256, P=0.033, relatively) at Table 1. Whereas, the change of daily living activities was not significantly correlated with the change of muscle mass and muscle function.Table 1.Univariate analysis of the changes in daily living activities or exercise and those in body composition or muscle functionChange of daily living activitiesChange of exerciseR valueP valueR valueP valueΔ Weight (kg)-0.1230.311-0.1310.279Δ BMI (kg/m2)-0.1080.397-0.1130.345Δ Muscle mass (kg)0.1400.3110.2730.021Δ Fat mass (kg)-0.0610.614-0.0750.539Δ Fat percentage (%)-0.0030.982-0.0180.884Δ Basal metabolic rate (kcal)0.2010.0950.2560.033Δ Grip strength (kg)0.1170.3360.0370.762Δ Walk speed (m/s)0.1690.1610.1390.250Δ, change from pre- to post-behavioral restriction; BMI, body mass indexAnalyzed by Spearman’s rank correlation coefficientConclusionMuscle mass and grip strength decrease and fat mass increase in patients with RA by the behavioral restriction of COVID-19 pandemic.

Abstract
BackgroundClinical feature of Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitor is recognized as not only suppress inflammation but also improve patient-reported outcomes (PRO) such as pain and health assessment questioner (HAQ) in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). This representative clinical feature was known as a results of phase 3 trial compared to TNF inhibitor. One of the mechanisms of JAK in RA is to suppresses interleikin-6 (IL-6). However, the effect for PRO in JAK inhibitor compared to IL-6 inhibitor have not been known.ObjectivesWe investigated the effect for patient-reported outcomes such as pain and HAQ in patients with RA treated with JAK inhibitor compared to IL-6 inhibitor.MethodsThis study was analysed a multicenter database included RA patients treated with biological disease-modifying anti rheumatic dugs (bDMARDs) and JAK inhibitors. In 307 patients treated with IL-6 inhibitor (tocilizumab 240 and sarilumab 67) and 220 patients with JAK inhibitor (tofacitinib 101, baricitinib 83, upadacitinib 20, peficitinib 14 and filgotinib 2), 155 patients were treated as first-line bDMARDs/JAK inhibitor (IL-6R inhibitor 104 and JAK inhibitor 51). In this first-line patients, patients treated with IL-6R inhibitor and JAK inhibitor were matched using the propensity score adjusted for gender, age, RA disease duration, baseline charactristics of disease activity, CRP level, and MMP-3 level. The beaseline data and the change of clinical and laboratory data at 4, 12 and 24 weeks were compared between IL-6 inhibitor and JAK inhibitor.ResultsThirty-six patients in each group were matched and analyzed. The average age was 62.4 and 62.6 years and the average disease duration of RA was 13.2 and 10.1 years in IL-6 inhibitor and JAK inhibitor. The baseline characteristics were not significantly different in both groups. At week 4, tender joint count (TJC) was significantly improved in JAK inhibitor than IL-6 (IL-6: -1.86 vs JAK: -4.12, p= 0.036) and HAQ was significantly improved in JAK inhibitor than IL-6 (IL-6: -0.04 vs JAK: -0.27, p= 0.041). Moreover, Clinical Disease Activity Index (CDAI) was also improved in JAK inhibitor than IL-6 (IL-6: -6.6 vs JAK: -10.9, p= 0.026) at week 4. However, pain VAS and patient global VAS were not significantly different in each group in week4. TJC, HAQ and CDAI was not different in both groups at week 12 and week 24. On the other hand, ESR was significantly decreased in IL-6 inhibitor than JAK inhibitor at week 4, 12 and 24 (IL-6: -26.6 vs JAK: -14.1, p=0.018 at week 4, IL-6: -32.7 vs JAK: -16.5 p=0.004 at week 12, IL-6: -31.3vs JAK: -17.7 p=0.014 at week 24).ConclusionIn a comparison between IL-6 inhibitor and JAK inhibitor as a first-line molecular-targeted drug matched baseline charactristics of disease activity, TJC and HAQ was improved in JAK inhibitor earlier than IL-6 inhibitors. JAK inhibitor suppress multi cytokine that might be the reason why JAK inhibitor improve pain. Improvement of patient reported outcome in JAK inhibitor was found also in comparison with IL-6 inhibitor.References[1]Taylor PC, Keystone EC, van der Heijde D, et al.

Abstract
BackgroundPatients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) are likely to have sarcopenia due to decreased muscle mass and physical function. Some patients develop sarcopenia even if disease activity is well-controlled. We previously reported that 13.2% of RA patients without sarcopenia at baseline developed sarcopenia over a year1.ObjectivesThe aim was to longitudinally investigate sarcopenia status and the characteristics of RA patients using data from the prospective, observational CHIKARA study.MethodsBody composition, laboratory data, disease activity, physical function (HAQ), treatment, and history of falls and fractures were investigated in 100 RA patients who participated in the CHIKARA study at baseline and at 5 years. They were divided into 4 groups depending on their sarcopenia status: no sarcopenia developed (N group; sarcopenia absent at baseline and 5 years); sarcopenia developed (S group; sarcopenia absent at baseline, but present at 5 years); cured (C group; sarcopenia present at baseline, but absent at 5 years); and persistent (P group; sarcopenia present at baseline and at 5 years).ResultsSeventy RA patients completed the survey. There were no differences among the 4 groups in disease activity, physical function, and treatment. The N group, accounting for 67.1% of all patients, was young and had high body mass index, muscle mass, fat mass, estimated bone mass, and body metabolic rate at baseline. On the other hand, the S group, accounting for 4.3% of all patients, fell significantly more frequently (p=0.035), 3.3 times during 5 years. The P group, accounting for 18.6% of all patients, had significantly higher MMP-3 at baseline (p=0.006). The C group accounted for 10.0% of all patients (Table 1).Table 1.Characteristics of 77 RA patients by sarcopenia status at baseline and at 5-year follow-upno development (n=47)development (n=3)cured (n=7)persisted (n=13)p valueage, years63 (57.5, 70)76 (74.5, 81)66 (54, 70)73 (65, 82)0.006disease duration, years6.5 (1.1, 10.7)15.2 (14.9, 20.7)11.4 (7.2, 14.8)3.5 (1.1, 6.5)0.021MTX dose, mg/day8.1 ± 3.76.0 ± 2.07.4 ± 3.86.2 ± 4.80.406biologics use, %36.266.728.623.10.513GC use, %23.4028.615.40.701average GC dose, mg/day3.5 ± 1.103.7 ± 1.86.3 ± 1.80.833CRP, mg/dl0.1 (0.04, 0.18)0.04 (0.04, 0.23)0.2 (0.12, 0.47)0.19 (0.08,0.82)0.22MMP-3, ng/ml62.2 (50.3, 98.6)58.9 (47.8, 71.3)74.9 (58.3,147.2)160 (90.8,262)0.006DAS28ESR3.34 ± 0.914.11 ± 0.723.36 ± 1.383.79 ± 1.200.355mHAQ0.25 (0, 0.5)0.63 (0.56, 1.25)0.87 (0.25, 1.0)0.25 (0.13, 0.75)0.132BMI, kg/m223.22 ± 3.5121.4 ± 2.2518.69 ± 2.0819.56 ± 2.39<0.001SMI, kg/m26.73 ± 0.76.1 ± 0.25.51 ± 0.145.79 ± 0.6<0.001fat percentage, %30.39 ± 8.7730.03 ± 9.1225.04 ± 6.2323.75 ± 6.560.051estimated bone mass, kg2.2 (2, 2.4)1.9 (1.75, 1.95)1.6 (1.55, 1.9)1.9 (1.7, 2.2)0.001BMR, kcal1101 (1051, 1198)986 (934, 1010)896 (872, 994)978 (902,1107)<0.001ΔDAS28ESR-0.15 ± 0.84-0.43 ± 1.730.04 ± 0.89-0.59 ± 1.330.445ΔSMI, kg/m2-0.06 ± 0.34-0.38 ± 0.570.25 ± 0.220.08 ± 0.420.038fall, times1.63.331.290.380.045Data are shown as mean ± standard deviation (SD) or median (25th, 75th percentile).GC: glucocorticoids, MMP-3: matrix metalloproteinase 3, DAS: disease activity score, HAQ: health assessment questionnaire, BMI: body mass index, SMI: skeletal muscle mass index, BMR: body metabolization rate, Δ:change during 5 years.ConclusionOverall, 4.3% of RA patients developed sarcopenia and fell frequently during 5-year follow-up.

Abstract
BackgroundSome cases of creatine kinase (CK) elevation caused by Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitor treatment for rheumatoid arthritis (RA) have been reported in clinical trials1. However, the frequency and patients’ background characteristics in clinical practice are unknown.ObjectivesThe correlation between JAK inhibitor treatment for RA and changes in CK levels in clinical practice were investigated using a multicenter database.MethodsThe multicenter database of JAK inhibitors was used, and 103 (tofacitinib 46, baricitinib 44, upadacitinib 11, peficitinib 1, filgotinib 1) of 265 RA patients were followed up at 24 weeks, and their CK levels were evaluated. The time-dependent change of CK was evaluated by sex and analyzed by the Wilcoxon signed-rank test. The percentage abnormal from the standard titer was calculated. The factors related to an elevated CK at 24 weeks were investigated using patients’ background characteristics at the time of starting JAK inhibitors by univariate analysis.ResultsWomen accounted for 85.4% of the patients, the median age was 68 years, disease duration was 15 years, and the mean DAS28ESR was 5.00. The CK levels of both men and women were significantly elevated at 4 weeks and maintained until 24 weeks (men, women: 63, 62 (0 weeks), 101, 95 (4 weeks), 119, 96 (12 weeks), 155, 99 (24 weeks), U/L, P<0.001) (Figure 1). The percentage abnormal was also significantly increased at 4 weeks and maintained until 24 weeks (5.8% (0 weeks), 20.7% (4 weeks), 26.3% (12 weeks), 24.3% (24 weeks), P=0.002). The factors significantly positively related to elevated CK levels at 24 weeks were male, CK, creatinine, and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), and stage, class, modified health assessment questionnaire, estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), and glucocorticoid use were significantly negatively correlated (Table 1). There were no significant differences in CK elevation among the agents.Table 1.Characteristics at the time of starting JAK inhibitors related to elevated creatine kinase levels at 24 weeksUnivariateData at stating JAK inhibitorsR valueP valueCreatine kinase0.653<0.001Gender, men0.2470.012Steinbrocker stage-0.2150.039Steinbrocker class-0.2770.008modified health assessment questionnaire-0.2680.008Creatinine0.2890.003eGFR-0.2310.019LDH0.2010.041Glucocorticoid use-0.4090.008Analyzed by Spearman rank correlation coefficientFigure 1.Time-dependent changes of CK in all RA patientsConclusionCK was significantly elevated at 4 weeks and maintained until 24 weeks. However, no patients complained of muscle pain and stopped JAK inhibitors.

However, there are few reports investigated the efficacy and the effect of various factors relative to osteoporosis in real-world.ObjectivesWe evaluated bone mineral density (BMD) and bone metabolism marker (BMM) change in osteoporosis patients treated with romosozumab, and assessed the effect of various factors, such as preosteoporosis treatment, history of fragility fracture and combination of vitamin D.MethodsThis study included 141 osteoporosis patients (132 female, mean age: 78.8 ± 7.5 years, mean hight: 151.1 ± 7.5 cm, mean weight: 50.9 ± 8.9 kg) treated with romosozumab. BMD measurements using dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) and BMM measurements using N-terminal propeptide of type 1 collagen (P1NP) were evaluated at 0, 4, 6, and 12 months after treatment. DXA were performed at the lumbar spine (n=92), at proximal femoral and femoral neck (n=92), and at distal third radius (n=49). We evaluated the influence of preosteoporosis treatment, history of fragility fracture and combination of vitamin D for BMD change.ResultsBMD at lumbar spine (5.2%: p<0.01, 9.2%: p<0.01, 10.8%: p<0.01), proximal femoral (1.3%: p=0.02, 2.8%: p<0.01, 4.5%: p<0.01) and femoral neck (2.0%: p=0.03, 2.7%: p=0.06, 5.0%: p=0.01) were significantly increased at 4, 8, 12 months after treatment. BMD at distal third radius (-1.5%: p<0.01, -0.8%: p=0.17, -1.0%: p=0.13) were not increased at 4, 8, 12 months after treatment. P1NP chane were 63% (p<0.01), 6.4% (p=0.55), -2.3% (p=0.2) at 4, 8, 12 months after treatment. There were no significant differences in 1 year improvement ratio of BMD at lumbar spine, proximal femoral and femoral neck between 38 patients with pretreatment of osteoporosis and 54 patients without pretreatment of osteoporpsis (13.5 vs 9.5%: p=0.1, 4.9 vs 4.4%: p=0.7, 6.1 vs 4.6%: p=0.67), between 33 patients with a history of fragility fracture and 59 patients without a history of fragility fracture (7.3 vs 11.7%: p=0.42, 0.8 vs 5.5%: p=0.08, -0.7 vs 6.6%: p=0.14), between 50 patients with romosozumab alone and 42 patients with romosozumab plus vitamin D (11.3 vs 10.0%: p=0.93, 4.1 vs 5.3%: p=0.59, 6.8 vs 2.3%: p=0.47). There were no significant differences in 1 year improvement ratio of BMD at distal third radius between 33 patients with pretreatment of osteoporosis and 16 patients without pretreatment of osteoporpsis (-1.1 vs -0.9%: p=0.63), between 31 patients with a history of fragility fracture and 18 patients without a history of fragility fracture (-1.5 vs -0.5%: p=0.3).ConclusionRomosozumab improved BMD at lumbar and femoral independently regardless of preosteoporosis treatment, history of fragility fracture and combination of vitamin D.References[1]Felicia Cosman et al.
